An Interesting Evening - Meet the Stripper Neighbour!
Thread: An Interesting Evening - Meet the Stripper Neighbour!
dancebrigit
There were just the six of us at Tony and Val's place that evening, myself and my wife, Sue, and our friends Pete and Annette. We had known Pete and his wife for ages, but Tony and Val had only moved into the area a few months back. They had invited us round for a meal and a "get to know you" chat. I should have said – we were all fairly close neighbours in the same road.
We had had a great meal and the wine had flowed throughout the evening. The conversation had been interesting, but had mainly consisted of the four of us telling Tony and Val about ourselves. Then, as we relaxed in their lounge after the meal, they opened up to us. It emerged that Tony used to run a small club in the US which had made him quite a pile of money and he had returned to the UK after about 20 years "across the pond" to retire and enjoy life. When we asked him what sort of club it had been he told us that Val had been an "exotic dancer" there, so we could imagine! He grinned at us and I think we all felt a bit uncomfortable – this was not what exhwe were expecting, essentially all of us being in comparatively safe and boring jobs locally. He told us not to be shocked, but explained that he and Val had always had a high sex drive and that Val likes being a bit of an exhibitionist. He had run a bar initially but after hooking up with Val, they had used her talents to move into something slightly shady, but very popular. He'd had a number of dancers, and Val had been in charge of them, but he maintained that she was always "the sexiest, most erotic and most popular of them all. And she just loved the attention!"
I looked at Sue and she was sitting there white-faced. She didn't know what to say. So did Annette. Our wives exchanged glances and I thought for a moment they were going to get up and go, but maybe the wine, or intrigue, made them stay.
Eventually Sue said "I can't imagine how any woman could do that – I assume you mean stripping?"
"Yes," said Val. "It's not such a big deal. I was always proud of my body and the effect I had on boys in my youth. I liked dancing, and I think the human body is beautiful. It just grew out of dancing around to disco music for myself, then developing some moves and trying them out in clubs. I found I could make a lot of money in strip clubs, but also found I got really turned on by exposing my intimate parts – it was something about the effect on men, how they were panting for me, how I could get them in a state of pure lust and excitement and have total power over them. I could get them to do things and humiliate themselves just by how I flaunted myself in front of them. I loved it. And I didn't have sex with them or anything, I could walk away and leave them hanging…"
"And come and have great sex with me afterwards!" grinned Tony. Val beamed.
Then Annette asked Val exactly what she did, what her act was like. "Well, I had some fabulous outfits and I used to make myself up quite heavily. I'd start by dancing and then make the moves more and more erotic and teasing. I'd get shy looking audience members to undo things for me, sit on their laps and so on, then.."
"Hold on", said Tony, "this is silly. Why don't you show them? You've still got most of your stuff haven't you?"
I couldn't believe my ears; I crossed my legs as surreptitiously as I could to hide the movement in my trousers and watched Sue and Annette. Annette spoke: "Oh I don't think that would be right. I'm not sure about that at all".
"Neither am I," said Sue, and I felt very disappointed.
"Oh don't be so daft" said Val, "I'll just do a little show for you. Its not as if we're having an orgy or anything, no-one's going to make you do anything – we're not like that, but I do enjoy doing my dances and I'm sure all the guys would love it – and I bet you ladies are a little bit intrigued aren't you?"
Sue went bright red and quietly admitted "well, I suppose to a certain extent I am. I've never seen a strip in real life, just in films. I guess it would be quite interesting."
"Oh, OK" said Annette, "go ahead Val. But I think I need another drink!"
So we all had a top-up from Tony while Val left the room. Then Tony arranged his two settees so the four of us were in a line and there was a space in front of us in his large lounge for Val to perform. Tony got a CD ready to play. There was an air of anticipation in the room. After about fifteen minutes of hushed discussion between ourselves about what was going to happen, and lots of reassuring of the ladies that this was not about wife-swapping or having sex, and that none of us would have to remove our clothes, Val called down to Tony to "get the music on". Tony obliged and immediately some loud sleazy blues erupted from his stereo.
Val made her entrance. And what an entrance. She looked a little like one of the women from Abba. Long purple boots with platform soles, a long purple skirt that was slit up the front until it met a zip that went up to the waist. Above this she had a very tight matching purple zipper jacket that was low-cut and showed a significant amount of cleavage. It appeared at least a size too small as her breasts were clearly quite constrained and pushed upwards quite considerably. She had tied her hair up on the top of her head and applied purple eye shadow, heavily lined eyes and deep red lipstick. I looked at Sue and she looked back at me with raised eyebrows.
"Val, you look great" I said. Well it would be rude not to say anything.
"Yes, fantastic" echoed the girls and Pete.
Val began a sensuous dance around the room. Occasionally she would sit on a straight-backed chair that Tony placed for her. As she did so she would stretch out a leg and slide it outwards, opening the slit in her skirt so we could see that she wore tan stockings underneath. Sue shifted around a little. Val came over to us all and bent down in front of Pete, cupping herself to emphasise even more her magnificent cleavage. Now Pete went red and looked sheepishly at his wife. But then Val turned her back and gyrated her bottom at Annette, just inches from her face, and it was Annette's turn to colour up.
Val next approached Sue and stood in front of her with her legs apart, the slit in her skirt under pressure and her knees slightly bent. As she stood there she bent down and very slightly opened the zip, making the slit longer and showing more of her stockings. "Go on Sue, just pull my zip up a little further for me – not too far, I want to keep something hidden from these men a little longer!"
Sue looked mortified but Val just stood there swaying to the music. Eventually Sue reached out to the zip and moved it about six inches up towards Val's waist. I caught a slight glimpse of silver before Val sprang back and continued her moves.
Then Val went over to Annette and got her to unzip her tight jacket. "Nice and slowly Annette, please" she instructed. Annette pulled the zip down and the jacket opened. Underneath the jacket Val was wearing a heavy under-wired silver bra. It was magnificent. Her breasts were really pushed up by it, and it was a substantial item of underwear. Her jacket hung loosely now and she came over to Pete and asked him to remove it – which he did with shaking hands. Then, freed from the jacket she resumed her sensuous dance. Now she made great play of her breasts and the bra, cupping it, squeezing the cups together, leaning forward towards us, etc. Then she would put a hand inside each cup tantalisingly.
I turned to Sue and asked if she was still OK with it. "I suppose so" she smiled at me "the wine is helping – it's quite erotic isn't it?" Blimey!
Now Val turned her attention to her skirt and legs. We had already had a glimpse of stocking (reminds me of a song, that) and now she raised the zip further upwards. As she did so more of her stockings came into view; she sat down and spread her legs apart as she pulled the zip up completely. Then she lifted her legs up and outwards and we were treated to a view of what appeared to be silver shorts, and a very nice gusset indeed! This was super-erotic and my prick was stirring mightily in my trousers. Sue looked slightly flushed as Val opened her legs further and then bent her knees, affording us a great view up her silver crotch. Her stockings were held up by a matching silver suspender belt, under the shorts, which I now realised were hotpants, also with a zip up the front, between the legs and up the back! As she lay back she ran a finger gently along the zip across her gusset. She beckoned Sue forward.
Hesitantly at first Sue went up to her. Val asked her to remove the skirt, which was now only held at the front. Sue did so and the skirt fell away. "Don't sit down yet, Sue" said Val, "I have something else for you to do". And with that she stood up and got Sue to undo her bra at the back. Sue complied then almost ran back to sit beside me again.
"I didn't think she'd actually take her top off – will she?" whispered Sue to me. I just shrugged, but I was hoping…
Val held her hands over the bra cups and slowly moved the bra across her ample boobs, never quite showing them to us, teasingly bending over us all and appearing just about to let the bra fall away. Then she turned her back and the bra fell to the floor, leaving her back totally bare. Then she turned around but quickly covered her tits with her hands.
Then with a "nothing you haven't seen on a French beach!" Val moved her hands away and clasped them behind her neck, showing off her gorgeous breasts to us all; dark nipples really standing proud. Annette and Sue both gasped.
"Oh, Val, I didn't think you'd actually go that far!" said Annette.
"What do you think happens in a striptease then?" countered Val and continued to gyrate and then run a finger over her left nipple, making it stand even more erect. I must say, I was pretty damn erect now as well, but trying not to let Sue and Annette see the effect this show was having on me. I glanced at Pete and drew the same conclusion.
To our wives surprise the show wasn't over. Val lay on the floor on her front then opened her legs wide and raised herself with her arms. Then she bent her legs at the knee and opened further.
"What is she going to do now, Alan?" asked Sue.
"Haven't a clue." I replied. "Let's just watch shall we?"
"If she takes any more off I don't know if I can watch her – this is just so… rude" she replied. I smiled at her and adopted a quizzical expression, hoping it would seem neutral.
Meanwhile Val had turned onto her back, boobs still firm on her chest and one hand massaging them. The other hand slowly moved to her hotpants while she opened her legs again so we could see the full extent of their gusset. She reached for the zipper and gently began to pull it down.
"Oh no, Val – don't", said Sue, but Val just looked her in the eye as she continued opening up her hotpants. Slowly, slowly the zip descended, obscured by Val's hand as she pulled it down across the crotch and up the back. Then, both sides of the hotpants fell away and we saw that she had a tiny red g-string panty just coving her womanhood. Sue gave a relieved sigh as Val stood up and came up to her. With the music still pumping out Val stood with her panty crotch inches from my wife's face as she pulled the front down and showed Sue her shaven mound. Sue's jaw dropped. She didn't know what to do or say as Val pulled the knickers lower and we could all see the folds of her vagina peeping up from between her legs. Then, in a flash, Val had removed the g-string completely and stood completely exposed before us. All that remained of Val's clothing was the stockings and the silver suspender belt.
Sue was flushed and panting. She really hadn't expected Val to strip off completely, but began a nervous clapping, joined by Annette and us two blokes, presuming that Val's show, and our wives embarrassment, was over at last.
Val stood stock still for a moment, but showed no sign of acknowledging the applause. Instead she said "Ladies! Strippers don't stop there, we'd never make any money – you need to see the rest of my act, now settle down and enjoy…" and slowly turned her back to us, showing her lovely firm buttock cheeks. Then she backed towards Pete and Annette on their sofa and stood immediately in front of them, but with her back to them. Suddenly she bent right forward and touched her toes. Immediately her anus and vagina came into view, tightly closed between her bum cheeks, her legs close together. Sue put her hand to her mouth in shock and Annette turned her head away.
"Oh, come on, Annette" said Val, "you've seen these before – you've even got your own. I'm just showing you how to show them is all!" With that she stood upright again, moved forward a little and stood equally in front of us all. Then she spread her legs apart and slowly bent forward again. This time it was all completely on show. Her vagina and anus came into clear unrestricted view. In case we couldn't see, she even placed her hands on her bum cheeks and pulled them further open.
"This is what my audience really like!" said Val. I recommend doing this for Alan and Pete ladies. They'll do anything you want!"
As she spoke she bent her legs and swayed from side to side. Her holes opened further. I was transfixed. Her vagina was glistening. Her entire crotch area was wet; I guessed at a combination of sweat and her own juices. Sue and Annette both sat there looking stunned. My mouth was dry and I had to lick my lips. I hoped Sue didn't notice. Val swayed more and as she did so her pussy opened and closed, her lips sticking and unsticking.
Then Val moved her hands down to her ankle and stayed in that pose, legs apart, head down, pussy and anus exposed.
"This is when my audience start taking pictures of me on their phones, I like to stay like this for a while as they get really hot and horny, then I call Tony over…"
We had forgotten Tony. He had remained at the side of the room throughout the show, keeping a low profile and just letting his wife get on with it. Now he moved across to Val, who still stood in her naughty pose. Standing behind her he now placed his hands on her buttocks and opened them up for us.
"This really drives them wild," he said as with one hand he began to lightly touch Val's crotch. He traced his finger down over Val's anus and along her vaginal opening. He slipped a finger inside her. "Lovely and wet, as usual" he winked at us. Then he added a finger and slowly frigged Val as we watched. I thought I was going to explode in my pants. I put my arm around Sue, almost to steady myself. I looked at Sue and noticed that she had her hand in the pocket of her trousers. As I watched her it became obvious that she was massaging her own cunt through her trouser pocket! Fucking hell, she was really turned on by this! I shot a look at Pete and Annette and saw that Pete had his hand down the front of Annette's blouse, while she had her hand on the bulge in his jeans, rubbing slowly.
Tony had moved to Val's side and was now transferring her juices onto her whole crotch area. She was sopping wet and she bent and straightened as he worked on her. Then he put a hand underneath her and began massaging her clitoris with his left hand while with his right, completely covered in her sex-slime, he put a finger straight into her anus, then followed this with a finger into her vagina at the same time. This was too much for me, I had to get some relief. Sue was rubbing her own cunt, so I undid my fly and got out my penis. Sue saw me and undid her own trousers, plunged her hand into her panties and frigged away. I held my cock tightly. Tony was double-fingering Val like there was no tomorrow, his fingers sliding effortlessly into her bum-hole and her cunt while he was rubbing her clit.
Then something amazing happened, as if it hadn't already! I mean my wife was openly frigging herself in our friend's lounge having expressed distress a short time earlier about her friend exposing her boobs! Anyway, Tony opened his flies and got out what was unarguably an enormous cock. Then he just pushed it up his wife's anus. Just like that! Everybody gasped. Tony just set up a rhythm pumping in and out of Val's bum-hole, while she mewed with pleasure and juices dripped out of her cunt. Then Tony called out "Sue, try this, you'll never believe what its like otherwise, put your hand up Val's cunt while I'm up her arse!"
Good God! Would she? Would she hell! Sue immediately went over to them and began feeling Val's vaginal lips, underneath Tony's pumping cock. "That's it Sue, get your fingers up me," commanded Val, and Sue obliged. We all watched closely, Pete and Annette kept up their frigging and wanking but their eyes were on Sue's fingers and Val's cunt-hole.
As we watched, Sue inserted two fingers into Val's wet hole, then three, then four and, without much effort, as Tony slid in and out it was almost as if the suction took her whole fist into Val's cunt. Right in. Sue looked at me with astonishment and began rubbing herself with her free hand.
"Oh bloody hell, that feels amazing" said Sue. "I can feel Tony's dick against my hand. Oh that's SO rude! Oh my God it feels amazing!"
"Can you imagine how it feels for me?" said Tony.
"Oh God, and for me!" said Val. Suddenly Val let out a wail and began bucking with orgasm. Tony just continued to plunge his erect cock into his wife.
Sue pulled her hand out of Val, took her trousers down and off, clambered onto my lap, facing me, and I entered her as she continued to frig herself.
I looked at our friends on the other sofa. By now Annette had Pete's dick down her throat and his hand bringing her off.
Within a minute it was all over. Tony spunked into Val. I emptied my balls into Sue as she came. Pete exploded into Annette's mouth and she rocked to her own climax.
No one looked at each other as we tidied ourselves up. Finally, Val, still virtually naked said: "Well, I think I can say that you all finally enjoyed that. I certainly did. And I love the fact that it all happened because of my little show. See, no harm done! Nobody made you do anything you didn't want to! It's just a matter of losing some inhibitions, and providing a safe environment to lose them in."
She came round and gave all of us a nice kiss, then started to get dressed.
"Val", said Sue "I'm sorry I carried on a bit. I was just so shocked. It was like nothing that had ever happened to me before. I think I was scared that it was going to be different somehow, that I would be jealous, or Alan wouldn't want me anymore, or something. I could never have exposed myself like that, and I thought badly of you because you could. But then I ended up having sex in front of you all – even if you were all preoccupied! So I feel a bit guilty, but by God I really enjoyed it. In the end. I'm going to learn a little routine myself now, for Alan's benefit only!"
Well, that was a result!

October 8, 2010 Alliance for Arts and Culture Calls For Reinstatement of Gaming Funds
Wedge Politics Strategy Seen In Loss of Investment In a Civil Society
Speaking on behalf of its 350 members and a growing province-wide coalition of arts and community service groups, the Greater Vancouver Alliance for Arts and Culture is calling on the provincial government, specifically Minister Rich Coleman of Housing and Social Development, to reinstate all the gaming funds previously used to support community services provided by charities and non-profits.
In advance of Friday's BC Association for Charitable Gaming Symposium at Richmond's River Rock Casino, Alliance executive director Amir Ali Alibhai said, "We are taking this opportunity to urge the BC government and Minister Coleman to properly fund charities and non-profits, as was promised when Gaming was expanded throughout BC.
"While the government of BC becomes increasingly addicted to the lucrative business of gambling at the expense of vulnerable British Columbians, and continues to expand its gaming activities, it has proceeded to break a social contract made with BC's citizens," Mr. Alibhai continued.
"Gambling was expanded in this province with the understanding that 33 percent of its profits would go back into communities to fund key social and community services. Currently this percentage has been eroded to 10 percent and important community infrastructures in the non-profit and charity sectors are crumbling."
Mr. Alibhai acknowledged that there seems to be no hope of stopping neither the unprecedented expansion of gambling nor the social malaise that it creates.
He notes, however, that "we are forced to accept this source of funding for our sectors. We therefore demand a fair percentage of revenues for our communities. We also seek a more transparent manner of allocation of funds than we have witnessed of late.
"The risk of political agendas and motives affecting civil society is currently great. This massive pot of Gaming funds is currently distributed entirely at the ministry's discretion, without transparency, consultation, or any type of arm's-length process to ensure Gaming is not a political slush fund.
"The recent priorities announced by Minister Coleman suggest a strategy of wedge politics that we find disturbing.
"The BC government has increasingly put pressure on non-profit organizations, the pillars of a civil society, to deliver the social services it has gradually off-loaded, while cutting back its own financial support of those organizations. This is largely a result of an ideological strategy to cut corporate taxes while jumping on the cash cow that Gaming represents by taxing consumers. This addiction to gambling proceeds is not healthy and does not build a bright or better future for BC.
In making this announcement Mr. Alibhai outlined three key requests, that the government:
* Restore the funding previously provided through Gaming to civil society organizations, including the arts;
* Work with the BC Association for Charitable Gaming to negotiate and formalize an agreement to allocate at least 20 percent of all Gaming revenues to the charitable and non-profit sector so that services they provide to the public are sustainable for the future.
* Consult with community organizations from all sectors on priorities and eligibility criteria and processes for allocation of funds to civil society.
"It is not just about arts and culture, this is about the general future health of our province," concluded Mr. Alibhai.
Alliance for Arts and Culture advocacy chair Sandy Garossino will be the keynote speaker at Friday's BC Association for Charitable Gaming Symposium 2010, being held from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the River Rock Casino Resort in Richmond. Ms. Garossino will speak on the topic of "Advocacy in a Challenging Time: We Can Work Together Toward A More Stable Future."

Train & Work With Us


With apologies to our esteemed web jefe, this thread has been a great trip down memory lane. The reference to Melrose Avenue being a swank venue brought a chuckle: in the mid-fifties, it was replete with used clothing and furniture stores and lots of for-rent signs. Times do change. Bob's Big Boy in Toluca Lake was the big Hollywood High School draw (no Bob's in Hollywood, only Tiny Naylor and some soda shops so we had to head for the Valley- Fri. & Sat. nights were Hot Rod Heaven). You could almost hold their thick shakes upside down like a Dairy Queen these days-straws were of little use...;o). Hamburger Hamlet on the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood was the place to get your "upscale" burger until I left So. Calif. for the Norwegian Riviera (Minnesota) in the mid-60's. The Hamlet didn't have a place in beautiful Downtown Hollywood then. For a steak: Musso Franks on Hollywood Blvd. Prime Rib: Lawry's on La Cieniga. Chinese: Chinatown in downtown L.A.; had an addiction for Shu Mai. Hot Dogs: Pinks, in the Fairfax area near the Farmer's Market. Wouldn 't it be great to be a time traveler and go back and sample them all over again? Or does present memory accurately reflect that long-ago reality? Think I'll stick with the memory.
OK; that's enough about burgers. Why not try "tamales" next?

Discovering the brilliant and witty Professor Feynman
Those who know me well might be surprised that a recent fun read was written by a Nobel Laurette in Physics. Just saying — I really don't speak "math." However, the book came to me from Jake — who does know me well — and he knew I would get a kick out of the wicked wit of this brilliant mind.
"Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman!" Adventures of a Curious Character is Richard P. Feynman's memories of his outrageous adventures driven by his insatiable curiosity. Each chapter is a neatly contained short story, beginning with his childhood in Far Rockaway, Queens where he developed a reputation as a weird kid who could do cool stuff — like fix radios "by thinking!" His wit is delightfully self-deprecating as he relates how is fell into successes just because he was too naïve to know not to try.
He certainly was not consumed with his own brilliance and was rather amazed to wind up at MIT, and delightfully surprised to realize he had landed with his tribe. He had to this point found ways to entertain himself, which meant indulging his intellectual interests. In an early chapter, he shares stories of when he worked in a hotel — alternating his eleven hour days as a desk clerk or busboy in the restaurant. To break the tedium of the work, and to cut corners, he "invented" a new way to handle trays and to cut string beans. One resulted in a spectacular crash, the other with a spurting bloody finger — and a life lesson: "I learned that innovation is a very difficult thing in the real word," because his bosses had little imagination and no patience.
College introduced a whole world of intellectual stimulation and the hijinks that come from a community of brilliant minds. Even in this rarified world, Feynman was unique. He relates a moment in his freshman year when his roommates — both seniors — "were working pretty hard on something that seemed pretty clear to me." He explained what he was thinking and how it solved the problem. "…but I had read all this stuff in the encyclopedia without talking to anybody about it, so I didn't know how to pronounce anything." Once the roomies got that he was referring to "Bernoulli's equation" not "Baronallai's equation," they "were very excited, and from then on they discussed their physics problems with me."
I love this guy! He is a version of students I've known and have helped negotiate the "must dos" of school. In a chapter titled, "Always Trying to Escape," Feynman recalls how he played the school game at MIT. He writes, "When I was a student at MIT I was interested only in science; I was not good at anything else. But at MIT there was a rule: You have to take some humanities courses to get more 'culture.'" What he discovered is that astronomy counts as a humanities course, "So that year I escaped with astronomy." The next year, the closest thing to science he could find was philosophy.
He relates how he interpreted assigned themes for English papers that caught his fancy, like writing a parody of Huxley's "On a Piece of Chalk" that he titled "On a Piece of Dust" about how "dust makes the colors of the sunset and precipitates the rain…." For the philosophy class, where he could not understand a word the professor said, he got interested in the idea of stream of consciousness and when does it end --his emphasis.
"So every afternoon for the next four weeks I would work on my theme. I would pull down the shades in my room, turn off the lights and go to sleep. And I'd watch what happened when I went to sleep." Since he went to sleep each night, "I had two times each day when I could make observations — and it was very good!" And from this, he not only wrote a theme that the professor liked, he developed a fascination for observing his thinking processes that evolved into delving into dream analysis.
And so it goes – his Princeton years where he earned a PhD, his experiences with military and working on the bomb at Los Alamos, his teaching at Cornell and Caltech — each chapter is a synopsis of his scientific work wrapped around life moments that he found funny and enlightening.
Here are two life lessons that I would want my students — and their parents — to understand:
I learned very early the difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something.
(I think of all the little kids who are studying their math to take a test to prove that they are smart enough to continue in an advanced math course. They know a lot of math facts, and can do math by rote, but to what end when they don't really understand — know — math.)
I don't know what's the matter with people: They don't learn by understanding; they learn by some other way — by rote, or something. Their knowledge is so fragile.
Feynman made this observation when he was at Princeton, working on his PhD, surrounded by super brains that too often were consumed with doing school — as in getting the "right" answer — whereas Feynman was playing with ideas and having fun with forging new paths.
One of those paths was in the field of quantum mechanics and electrodynamics. "The Principle of Least Action in Quantum Mechanics" was his 1942 dissertation, which he expanded upon with "Space-Time Approach to Quantum Electrodynamics" and "The Theory of Positrons" in the 1940s. In 1965, he won the Nobel Prize in Physics, sharing it with Julian Schwinger and Shin'ichiro Tomonaga for their independent work in quantum electrodynamics.
Another area of interest was in "tiny machines" – nanotechnology. It seems remarkable that this quintessential 21st century technology came from the mind of a man born in 1918.
From the Feynman website:
Many consider him to be the father of nanotechnology for two prizes he offered in a 1959 talk entitled, "There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom," where he prompted thinking on a very small scale. He offered a prize for the world's smallest motor, and another challenge involving very small writing; so small that the text of the Encyclopedia Britannica could be contained on the head of a pin. The prize for the motor was claimed almost immediately, but the challenge of the writing wasn't met for over 20 years.
In the 1984 — still decades before the concept was widely known — he shared in a video format his talk on "Tiny Machines – Nanotechnology."
Feynman's name is most familiar, however, from a series of lectures on physics that were edited and illustrated by Robert B. Leighton and Matthew Sands. These lectures, given at Caltech from 1961 to 1964, are now in three volumes that include The Definitive and Extended Edition of the lectures with Feynman's Tips on Physics and Four Lectures on Problem Solving Exercises. These books are considered to be the most popular books on physics ever written.
But it is the "popular works" that caught and kept my attention. Even with all the physics talk embedded in everything he does — which I skim over — Feynman is a terrific wit and his books are delightful reads.
In 1985 he compiled the Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman followed by, in 1988, What Do You Care What Other People Think? : Further Adventures of a Curious Character. (Both by W.W. Norton).
Another of his popular works is Perfectly Reasonable Deviations from the Beaten Track, (Basic Books, reprinted 2005).
I love that these titles capture his sense of humor and his perspective on life. For my students who are so captivated by physics — oh the number of my middle schoolers who dive into research projects on quantum theory and nanotechnology! — I want them to read this guy. He is the learner that I want them to be — open to ideas, willing to try, fail, and try again! And so frankly unconcerned what other people think, which includes teachers who gave him grades.
And as they mature, I hope they can recognize and emulate the character traits of a truly great man.
Feynman died in 1988 after a long battle with stomach cancer. He was writing Surely You're Joking and Further Adventures of a Curious Mind through those travails. Moreover at the same time, he was doing some deadly serious work — in1986 he was working on the commission investigating the explosion of the Challenger space shuttle.
What an amazing, multifaceted, truly brilliant man.
One last thought on the idea of "genius" that is so liberally tossed around. This quote by Han Bethe delineates the difference between what is called genius and someone like Richard Feynman:
There are two types of genius. Ordinary geniuses do great things, but they leave you room to believe that you could do the same if only you worked hard enough. Then there are magicians, and you can have no idea how they do it.
Feynman was a magician.

Joel Davidi Weisberger
The Rabbi Who Stood Alone Against Sabbateanism
1665 was a crazy time for Jews. Rumors of the imminent arrival of the Messiah spread like wildfire from Holland to Yemen. Rabbis and laymen alike began to prepare themselves with fasts and penitence being undertaken everywhere. The enthusiasm and unbridled joy of the crowds were palpable. Gluckel of Hameln, the German Jewish housewife wrote in her diary how Jews sold their belongings for a pittance in the belief that they will soon be transferred on the wings of eagles to the Promised Land.
Amidst all of this ruckus stood one man alone. He was not aloof or apathetic- not by any stretch of the imagination. The possibility of that man Shabtai Sevi being the long-awaited Messiah gnawed at him initially. Calling Sevi "a respected Rabbi" Rabbi Sasportas, an Algerian-born Talmudist of Sephardic origin, urged restraint and caution. He was mostly alone in this- in the initial phase of the Sabbatean movement. Shabtai's groupies in Turkey were beset with zeal and sometimes responded with violence toward those who refuse to acknowledge the messiahship of Sevi. Sasportas was a man of letters. In a furious exchange of letters between him and many of the Rabbinic and lay leaders of large Jewish communities across Europe and North Africa, Sasportas gave voice to his doubts and skepticism. As Sevi's actions became increasingly sacrilegious and bizzare, Sasportas increased his activism. When the much vaunted Messiah finally submitted to Islam in 1666 rather than face the executioner, Sasportas felt vindicated and his tone become even more more aggressive and strident.
In his detailed study of the affair, Princeton University Professor Yaacob Dweck fleshes out a portrait of a brilliant and complicated man. Dissident Rabbi, The Life of Jacob Sasportas is a dispassionate biography of a remarkable man of the long 17th century.
A deeply traditional man well-schooled in the halls of Talmud, Halakha and Kabbalah, Sasportas gazes with fear and trepidation at the uprooting and turning over of social order. His letters reflect a deep fear of social chaos. Jewish fealty should be to Halacha-established normative Jewish law, unbridled spirituality has its place but only within the confines of the former.
The exchange of letters between Sasportas and Jewish leaders (some of them former students and colleagues) regarding Shabtai and his followers would be preserved by Sasportas in manuscript form and entitled Sisat Novel Sevi, literally "the whithering of the flowering of Sevi". This book, Dwek informs us, never appeared in print during his lifetime. This should give one pause. Dwek floats several theories as to why this was. One theory points to the will of many Rabbis to put the entire affair behind them. The trauma was such that it would not do anyone any good to have it printed and disseminated. Another interesting theory regards "the aristocratic contempt for print as a vulgar medium" Be it as it may the book did not appear in print until after his passing and even then in severely truncated form as an appendix to his book on responsa.
An interesting aside, Dweck seems to take a side in the oft-cited controversy regarding the deciphering of the acronym samekh tet ס"ט. Sasportas, like many Sephardic Rabbis appended that designation to his name. While many scholars believe that it stands for "safa tav" literally "may his end be good", Dweck translates it as "Sephardi Tahor" or "pure Sephardi" (p. 51). Parenthetically, Dr. Lawrence Schiffman is likewise adamant that that is what the acronym stands for and ""all the other explanations are apologies by those who don't understand the pride felt by the Sephardim who had left Spain rather than profess Christianity".
Some glimpses into the correspondence of Sasportas affords us a look into the brain of a deeply learned man who could have written a book on Jewish philosophy, a contemporary Guide for Perplexed, if you will, but chose to limit his writing to works of legal scholarship. In a letter to his interlocutor (and kindred spirit) Rabbi Joseph Halevi of Livorno he writes, "whoever heard such a thing that while matters are still unclear we should set aside the words of Torah and tradition and hasten on hearing the one who says "thus sayeth the lord" [a reference to Shabbetai's false prophet Nathan of Gaza], to sentence me to death for not believing in him [a belief] which G-d had not commanded".
Although Dweck devotes an entire section to the interface between Sabbateanism and Christianity in the thinking of Sasportas, I am surprised that he did not notice the obvious (at least to me) reference here to Christianity (i.e. damnation as a result of lack in belief in anyone other than a deity).
Dwek's study is also instructive and informative as it relates to Sephardic Ashkenazic relations in the 17th century. Sasportas was a well-traveled man but limited most of his contacts with fellow Sephardim(although he was obviously familiar with early Ashkenazic literature and sometimes cites it authoritatively). In his indictment of Nathan of Gaza, he accuses the latter of preying on and pandering to naive Ashkenazim. This stems from Nathan's "prophecy" wherein he foretold that the Sultan would crown Sevi as the Messiah and then embark on a joint conquest. This military expedition would be bloodless with the exception of the Lands of Ashkenaz where many gentiles would perish.
"Why is Ashkenaz different from all other lands"? cries Sasportas. If this is because of the Chmielnicki Massacres of 1648–1649, still fresh in the minds of Jews, why then asks Sasportas rhetorically does he not recall "the many expulsions and persecutions in Aragon, Castille, and Portugal. Rather it seems that his entire intention was to draw and entice the people of Ashkenaz and Poland to follow his lying words".
This is a very interesting perspective as the Sabbatean movement was dominated by Sephardim. Sevi himself was partially Romaniote (according to some he was of distant Ashkenazic origin as the surname Sevi was unknown among Sephardim) but thoroughly Sephardicized. The same holds true of the elite of movement. The Sabbatean masses of Poland were little different than the Sabbatean masses of Amsterdam in everything but their respective social status. Nathan of Gaza himself was the son of Ashkenazi parents who had ascended to the Holy Land and had themselves assimilated into an overwhelmingly Sephardic mileu. In enhancing the role of the Sabbatean Ashkenazim and disenhacing the role played by Sephardim, Sasportas seems to put an inordinate focus on Ashkenazi gullibility to Sabbateanism while casting Sephardim as more sophisticated and seeing behind the farce.
Dweck rightly points out that the Sephardim outnumbered Ashkenazim in such important cities as Asmsterdam and Hamburg and "if any Jews constituted what Sasportas derisively refers to as 'the crowd'[hamon, hamon am], it was the Sephardim". Interestingly, in his later years he would experience some run-ins with Ashkenazi Rabbis when he resided in Hamburg. In a dispute between two Ashkenazic parties, one of the claimants turned to the local Sephardic court which included Sasportas. The other (Ashkenazic) side refused to accede to the jurisdiction of a Sephardic court with Sasportas appealing for common sense claiming that "even if this had something to do with Sephardim we would remove ourselves and be judged by you…for we all the sons of one man". Dweck acerbically concludes that "Sasportas was perfectly capable of overlooking the condescension that characterized his description of the Ashkenazim in Hamburg during the messianic enthusiasm and appealing to the shared genealogy of Ashkenazim and Sephardim as children of one man".
It's difficult for us in the 21st century to comprehend why so many Jews were caught up in a movement that venerated a man who seemed entirely unremarkable. It's hard to understand why many more didn't see it Sasportas's way. In a letter to the Saabtean Rabbi Refael Supino, Sasportas discusses parallels between Bar Kokhba and Shabtai. Saportas pointedly exclaims that in contradistinction to Bar Kokhba (who comes under his blistering criticism), the latter had fought wars and emerged victorious yet Shabtai was a Messiah who achieved absolutely nothing in terms of politics. He waged no wars, established no sovereignty, and acquired no temporal power. His chief accomplishment, for Sasportas, consisted of public violations of the law.
In Chapter 6 entitled "Aftermath" Dweck paints a portrait of a respected prominent Rabbi finally getting his due. Sasportas would eventually be appointed head of the tony Sephardic Etz Haim Yeshiva (which, Dweck informs us, banned admission to Italian, Polish and German students). This was soon followed by his appointment as Chief Rabbi of Amsterdam. Interestingly, Sasportas rarely mentioned his struggle against Sabbateanism outside of the mentioned compendium (which, as mentioned, he never published), the role he played in the fight against Shabtai and his followers is almost never mentioned in his later writings. He either chose to remain oblivious or perhaps was unaware that Sabbateanism or Neo-Sabbatianism was still very much a problem long after Shabtai's conversion and death. Perhaps Sasportas had had enough of the entire affair and was emotionally exhausted, it is also possible that he couldn't contemplate that belief in Shabtai would linger long after the latter was so obviously exposed as a fraud.
In chapter 7 Dweck points to the long-lasting effect of Sasportas and his work. If Sasportas's fight was not appreciated during his lifetime, he became even more relevant in the century that followed him. The chapter focuses on the mercurial and brilliant anti-Sabbatian fighter the Ashkenazic Rabbi Jacob Emden. Emden looked at Sasportas as a kindred spirit and wrote about how much he felt he had in common with him. With all the commonality between Emden and Sasportas, there were also some important distinctions Dweck points out. Their respective attitudes toward those who professed a belief in Sevi as the Messiah couldn't be more different. While Emden the purist sought the harshest of measures against individuals suspected of Sabbatean leanings, Sasportas preferred to show the believer the error of his ways but in no way did he cease social intercourse with such an individual- let alone attempt to have him banned or excommunicated.
Emden eventually published a fuller edition of Zizat Novel Sevi (claiming that he came across the manuscript by happenstance) as part of his battle against those he considered neo-Sabbatians. "Emden's edition turned Sasportas into a book", Dweck concludes.
Chapter 8 focuses on Sasportas's reception in Maskilic as well as anti-Maskilic circles. Sasportas would play a role in the struggle between Orthodox traditionalists and proponents of Wissenschaft. He would also play a role in the struggle between Zionists and anti-Zionists, particularly religious Anti-Zionists such as Joel Teitelbaum, the Rabbi of Satmar, abundantly showing that the battles of yesteryear are often repackaged and re-branded to serve contemporary purposes.

The question as to whether the application to degregister Royston heathland and swap it with land of a similar size near Therfield was made legally continues to blight the heath inquiry.
At the start of proceedings on Tuesday last week, objector Clive Hall suggested that the planning application "wasn't legal" as the applicant, The Therfield Regulation, didn't own the land.
When clerk David Smith was cross-examined by objector Clive Hall on Monday, he was asked how many separate roles he fulfilled.
He said he was clerk to the Conservators, who wear three hats and that he "supports them in all of their three hats – Conservators, managing trustees and property holding trustees of The Therfield Regulation Trust.
Mr Hall said that as part of proper legal proceedings, the application by the Therfield Regulation for deregistration and exchange must be signed by the chairman and the clerk.
Mr Smith looked at the evidence, and confirmed it was only signed by chairman John King on behalf of the Therfield Regulation.
Mr Hall also put it to the clerk that on The Charity Commission For England and Wales' website, The Conservators of Therfield Heath and Greens was a working name of The Therfield Regulation Trust, making them not two entities, but one.
Mr Smith said: "The relationship between Conservators and the Therfield Regulation Trust has satisfied our previous solicitors, who, when I was first appointed had to check the minutes of every meeting.
The inquiry at the Coombes Community Centre in Royston's Burns Road is expected to continue until Thursday.

news In a bid to see more Australian products in the global marketplace, the last month has seen a number of startups receiving funding from the Australian Government's Entrepreneurs' Programme.
In late October, 20 Australian companies benefited from $7.3 million in commercialisation grants assistance under the programme and, on 19 November, a further 10 firms received a share of $8.5m.
To date, the programme has provided 85 commercialisation grants worth more than $46 million to support Australian startups.
A technology platform to link approved pre‐gestational care guidelines with an individual's health information to help deliver "the best standard of care" in real time.
The creators of robotic farm machines and holographic entertainment systems were also included in the funding.
State-of-the-art bone scan analysis software for bone health diagnosis and monitoring.
Roy said at the time: "The projects featured in this announcement are brilliant examples of Australia's innovative ideas, and include the world's first kinetic manufacturing 3D printer and an award‐winning wave energy converter system.
Aside from grants, the government's Entrpreneurs' Programme uses facilitators and advisers, drawn from industry, to ensure businesses get the advice and support they need to improve competitiveness and productivity. The main focus is on providing access to the best advice and networks to solve startups' problems.
Practical support for businesses includes: advice from people with relevant private sector experience, co-funded grants to commercialise new products, processes and services, funding to take advantage of growth opportunities, and connection and collaboration opportunities.
Hey! I want a grant for my copper internet startup! Its traditional 1820's tech with a proud history. We can't have this fibre upstart causing mayhem and havoc. I deserve a grant. Hand over the money to me!

It's not actually a block, it's pieces from Clue 1 in the Back to Square One mystery quiltalong.
I encouraged her to flip some pieces.
I liked it before, but I'm loving it now, with the addition of the deep pink.
The blue of our carpet matches one of the blues in the quilt, which makes some of the negative space look like it's supposed to be there, especially in these last three.
I liked viewing these as thumbnails, it really highlighted the differences just a small change can make to the whole look.
I've been enjoying guessing too!

Pop Singer-Songwriter DAYVID To Release First Single From Highly Anticipated Debut EP
Staff — September 13, 2019
"Wasted Luv" to be released on September 20, 2019
(Los Angeles, CA ) — Pop Singer/songwriter DAYVID, will be releasing the first single from his upcoming debut EP on September 20, 2019. "Wasted Luv," produced by Grammy-Nominated producer Morgan Taylor Reid, is a follow up to DAYVID's well-reviewed single, "VHS," which was released in Spring 2019. "Wasted Luv" inspired a burst of creativity in the rising music star that completed the vision for his highly anticipated debut EP. From age 16, DAYVID has been writing music for major music artists including Fedde le Grand and Navarra.
"Wasted Luv" is co-written by DAYVID and Reid. The single was mixed by DJ Swivel and mastered by Chris Gehringer. "Wasted Luv" is released by DAYVID Music with AWAL being the global distributor.
"The song expresses my own experience with love, and one of those instances where you get to know someone well and develop a deep relationship with them, and then something goes wrong and you just want to forget everything about them. It is an experience most of us can relate to which also causes us to be cautious…maybe sometimes a bit too cautious," says DAYVID.
Producer Reid's prior hailed offerings include Marshmello, Jack & Jack, and CHROMEO.
"Wasted Luv" will be available on all streaming platforms including Spotify and Apple Music. For pre save /pre add https://ffm.to/dayvid-wastedluv
ABOUT DAYVID
21-year-old singer and songwriter DAYVID is a San Diego native. As a child he sang in a church choir, and in high school began dissecting popular music to understand its construction. At 16, he began commuting to Los Angeles to find a path into the music industry and soon found success writing music for artists including Fedde le Grand and Navarra. At 18, DAYVID moved to Los Angeles to pursue a full-time music career. Wanting to remain independent, he assembled his own music team of collaborators, and released his debut single "Sure of Me" in Fall 2018. He began a collaboration with Grammy-nominated Morgan Taylor Reid soon after, which spawned the well-reviewed single "VHS" in Spring 2019 and the upcoming new single "Wasted Luv," soon to be followed by an EP.
DAYVID has a unique modern voice that is often compared to '80's artists like Tears for Fears or Chris de Burgh. The production builds the music bed around his smooth natural tone to provide a modern flair.
DAYVID's music is inspired by many artists including Prince, George Michael, and Peter Gabriel from the 80's and current artists Justin Timberlake, Bruno Mars, and Taylor Swift.
"I co-write all of own my songs, and am deeply involved in the entire process including production, mixing/mastering, and the creation of visuals to keep everything cohesive with my overall vision," says DAYVID. "Much of the inspiration for my music and aesthetic actually comes from 80's classic films like 'Breakfast Club,' 'Say Anything,' and 'Sixteen Candles.' For me, it's all about creating music that speaks for me, and hopefully gives a voice to others."

The Nissan Altima was redesigned for 2013, offering more distinct styling and technological innovaiton than its Camry competition.
Every year the Toyota Camry competes for the unofficial title of "America's Favorite Car" if you just look at sales data. Toyota sells nearly a half million Camrys a year—and nearly every reviewer alive thinks the Camry is a boring offerhe Ting. It's supposed to be boring. To be everything to nearly everyone a mid sized sedan cannot have pretensions to sportiness. To give the Camry some flavor is to betray its mission.
It is the task of Toyota's main Japanese rivals, Honda and Nissan to offer the "anti-Camry." Honda does this with the Accord sedan and coupe, Nissan answers with the Altima, which has displaced the Maxima to compete upmarket with the Toyota Avalon. As Nissan totally redesigned the Altima for 2013, let's see what it brings to the market segment.
The easiest difference to spot is that the Altima is offering more distinctive styling than the Camry. One of the benefits of trying to be popular while not being the most popular is that a little edginess will not hurt. The Altima also brings a little high technology to its bodywork. The hood, roof, and trunk lid are all crafted from aluminum.
By far the most popular Altima model is the 2.5 SV, which is the middle level trim of the four cylinder offerings. The 2.5 in the description is the displacement of the inline four engine. This Altima's power plant makes a class leading 182 BHP and returns a class best 38 mpg on the highway. If the four cylinder isn't enough power for you, a 270 BHP V6 engine is also available. Again, this engine marks the best combination of power, and at 31 mpg on the highway, economy in the class.
Hopefully by now you are sensing an unmistakable trend. Nissan's intent is clear, if you want the both the quickest and the most economical mid-sized Japanese sedan, and you did your homework, you are going to come and look at the Altima. Even then, if the sedan still isn't sporty enough for you, they'll offer you a look at a coupe version if you'd like.
The Altima's continuously variable transmission rapidly changes ratios in response to throttle demand, which might be a bit of a downer for the eager driver.
Ironically, it is Nissan's adoption of the usually boring continuously variable transmission that is most responsible for the Altima retaining a degree of driving excitement. The Altima's CVT can rapidly change its ratios in response to throttle demand, allowing Nissan to offer a "sport mode" with a straight face.
From the driver's seat, the downside of a CVT is the aural lack of up and down shifts. However, unlike a traditional transmission, that must pick either a higher or lower gear for a given engine RPM, the CVT can keep the Altima in the sweet spot of its power.
If you want to escape the total anonymity of the Camry's staid styling and utter ubiquity, the Nissan Altima is a solid alternate choice in the imported mid-sized sedan segment.

WASHINGTON -- The Miami Heat decided that resting forward LeBron James and center Chris Bosh trumped playoff seeding.
Battling for their own postseason position, the Washington Wizards took full advantage of a game that had a preseason quality.
Forward Trevor Ariza scored 25 points, and forward Nene added 18 points as the Wizards earned their third consecutive win, beating the Heat 114-93 Monday night.
Miami's largest loss of the season locked up the Eastern Conference regular-season title for the idle Indiana Pacers. The Heat, who lost for the fourth time in five games, will enter the postseason as the second seed.
"It was out of control at some point," Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said of the first-place chase. "We just wanted to make sure that our guys are feeling right, that they are sharp, they are feeling healthy. ... A couple of days will do wonders for them."
Forward Al Harrington scored 16 points and guard John Wall had 13 assists for the Wizards, who dominated early. Washington shot 70.3 percent in the first half to take a 70-48 lead at the break.
The Wizards, who can finish fifth, sixth or seventh in the East, outscored the Heat 43-22 in a second quarter highlighted by 3-pointers and a spectacular full-court pass. Washington, winners of five of seven, led by 36 points in the second half.
"Hopefully we'll gain confidence and continue to play like this," said Wizards center Marcin Gortat, who finished with 10 points and 13 rebounds. "It was a totally different Miami team. They're probably getting ready for the playoffs right now. It was more like a scrimmage game than a big battle."
Currently sixth in the East, Washington (43-28) remains one game ahead of the Charlotte Bobcats, who defeated the Atlanta Hawks on Monday. The Wizards would fall into seventh with a loss to the Boston Celtics on Wednesday and a Charlotte win the same night against the Chicago Bulls.
Washington moved within 1 1/2 games of fifth-place Brooklyn. The Nets can clinch fifth with a win in either of their final two games.
Miami (54-27) will play either Charlotte or Washington in the first round of the playoffs.
14 for the Heat. Miami lost its third consecutive road game and fell to 3-9 on the road since March 4.
Guard Dwyane Wade played his second straight game since returning from a knee injury that kept him out for nine contests.
"They did a good job of denying me the ball all game," said Wade, who scored nine points in 18 minutes. "I felt like I was in football practice trying to get open."
In recent seasons, James rested during some of Miami's final games, often because the team's postseason seeding was set. The four-time league MVP, who has dealt with back soreness at times this season, had enough energy to heckle Beasley during a postgame interview in the loose Miami locker room.
As for any possible regret over not finishing first in the East, Wade said, "It will be no disappointment when the playoffs start. It's a new season, and we're looking forward to it."
The Wizards made 10 of 16 3-point attempts before halftime and finished 14 of 29. Over their past two games, Washington is 22 of 51 after hitting six of 50 in the previous three contests.
Ariza went 5-for-8 from beyond the arc and 10-for-13 overall in the type of game Washington struggled with in the past.
"Earlier in the year and last year we would be playing against players that normally don't play a lot and the game would be close. They probably would have won," Ariza said. "It just shows a lot about the growth we've made as a team."
Washington guard Bradley Beal scored all 15 of his points in the first half, three coming on a conventional three-point play after hauling a perfectly thrown full-court pass from guard Andre Miller. Beal caught the ball in stride for an immediate layup despite a foul on the play. The subsequent free throw put the Wizards up 59-39.
Nene's jumper gave Washington its largest lead at 103-67. He sat out Saturday's 104-91 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks.
NOTES: The Heat used their 20th starting lineup of the season. ... The teams split the four-game season series, each winning their home games. The Wizards defeated the Heat 114-97 at home on Jan. 15 and led by as many as 34 points. ... The three-game winning streak is Washington's longest since a six-game run from Feb. 19-March 1. ... The Heat close the regular season against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday. ...Washington is 2-1 versus the Celtics this season, including a victory at Boston.


Life as a Wife!: OUCH!
My weekend was full of snow tubing, fireplaces, learning about God, teenagers, and a trip to the ER. Yes, you heard me right... The Emergency Room!
Friday night the cute girls in my cabin and I hit the pillows at about 1:00 a.m. I reminded the girlies before they went to bed that if they needed to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night... to wake me up! I would go with them (it was outside in another building). Around 3:00 a.m. what do you know? I was the one who had to go potty. I was secretly hoping that one of the girls would come wake me up!!!
Shortly after this thought I heard a "kirrrplunkkk"... Oh my word! One of the girls rolled and in her sleep fell off the top bunk. Yikes! I whispered, "hunny - are you okay??" She responded by saying, "Yeahhh, I'm fine." Offta. It didn't sound fine to me.
She comes "wakes" me up (remember I was already slightly awake, because I had to go to the potty!) ... saying she thought she hit her head. Yes, she sure did. She had a slit cut under her right eyebrow, just above her eye. There was DEFINITELY blood involved.. and ...I was in shock! I quickly gathered my thoughts and calmly told her to put her coat on - we were going to go to the bathroom to take a better look.
On the way... I called the other leaders (my hubby & in-laws) no one was answering! I didn't know what to do... Thankfully Andrea (another leader that hadn't made it up yet) answered. I thought she may have the # to a contact person at the camp. A nurse or our contact?
We decided to take her to the ER in Brainerd (30 min away)... Sherrill woke Mark up (youth pastor and my father-in-law) we happened to get pulled over by a cop on the way... he let us go... 4 hours later this sweet girl had a plastic surgeon stitch up her poor eye cut. She was SUCH A TROOPER! No tears were shed, no complaining, she was SO thankful. She kept thanking us for waking up and taking her.
Look at her GORGEOUS smile!
OF COURSE!! We arrived back to the camp around 7:30 a.m. and saw the BEAUTIFUL moon and SUNRISE... (remember this post) I was hoping I'd see the beautiful sunrise up north! It happened in and unexpected way but it was soooo worth it! I felt terrible for this darling girl, poor thing, she just rolls in her sleep.
Oh, by the way... I got to use the bathroom too... A small blessing in disguise?
Incredible worship, powerful and real teachings, and a LOT of fun. I believe that the Lord spoke to these beautiful teenagers. The whole theme was about the importance of daily spending time in the bible and prayer. SOoOoO good!
Ps. Nail polish giveaway ends tonight at 11:59 :) I will be using random.org to determine the winner and announce tomorrow! Thanks for participating. I am SO blessed by the lovely readers of "Life as a Wife!"
Blessings... Don't be afraid to pause and slow down at some point today!
This reminds me of a couple *cough* Sara *cough* incidents in the dorm... isn't being a leader an adventure!!! You never know what will come your way!
Oh No! Poor girl! Other than that, the rest of the weekend looks very fun!!
ohhh boy!! ouch! you sound like an amazing youth leader. I had many camping adventures with some of my favorite high school ladies myself. Way to handle everything!!
Wow, what a crazy and scary thing to happen! Sounds like the rest of the weekend was great, though, and that sunrise is beautiful!
Oh my! and OHHH FUN!!! I can't wait to hear more. gonna go comment for your giveaway before its too late!!!!
That looks like SO much fun!! I would love to be a youth group leader with my soon-to-be hubby! Glad she was ok!
I'm glad she was ok!! It looks like it was a fun trip, though!
Poor girl...I'm glad it was any more serious. Looks like you had a fabulous weekend otherwise & that sunrise is absolutely stunning.
: ) just wanted to say that heidi's comment made my day! so true! oh how i love that girl.
aww, I'm glad she's ok! We haven't done a winter retreat in a long time. We should do one next year!
Oh my gracious. That's one tough kid.

"This was my first big-budget "Oz Rock" music video with a three day shoot, and a huge crew out in the middle of the Australian outback. It has all the classic Oz Rock cliches – deserts, sunsets, band playing their electric keyboards and instruments in the middle of nowhere, and lots of rock god posing on rocks etc. I remember the band asking if they could do anything else apart from pointing at the horizon. I couldn't really think of anything for them to do at the time apart from walking and pointing, so you'll notice the band doing… a lot of walking and pointing ! We actually shot this in Broken Hill and Silverton in and around the very same locations and stretches of road that were used in MAD MAX 2 : THE ROAD WARRIOR. In fact the DOP for this clip was none other than future Oscar winning cinematographer Andrew Lesnie (THE LORD OF THE RINGS), who was also a 2nd unit cameraman on MAD MAX 2. He already knew all the best angles and locations, making my job pretty easy. Being a huge fan of all the Mad Max films, it was a nerdy thrill to be shooting on the same hallowed ground. Another interesting bit of trivia is that this clip was edited by Craig Wood who went on to cut THE MEXICAN, THE RING, and THE PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN films. "

Disadvantages of using an electronic diary
By: Mickey Walburg
Electronic Diary Advantages

How to delete my email address
Diaries have existed in many forms since written language was developed. Diaries remain a popular way to express feelings, record your life, or keep track of important happenings. With the growth of the Internet and electronic technology, it's become very popular to keep electronic diaries instead of paper ones. While these diaries offer a lot of flexibility in areas like formatting and searching older entries, they do have some possible drawbacks.
One of the biggest issues facing users of electronic diaries is privacy. This can be an issue with both online journals kept at sites such as LiveJournal or Wordpress, and with journaling software you keep on your computer. Internet-based sites have the disadvantages that they can often be found if someone knows your name, the topics you write about, or other information about you. Some sites do have privacy settings, but they often change with little or no notice to their users, or are difficult to navigate. This can leave you with security gaps, in which unwanted people can view and sometimes even comment on your diary. They can also copy text, or take screen shots of the page so they can view it later, even if you've changed your settings.
Journaling software resides on your computer, so it cannot be found by Internet searches. Unfortunately, the program will show up on your list of available programs; so, anyone using your computer could see that you have journaling software. A simple keylogger, or even just a good guess, may yield your password and allow access to your personal writings.
Retention and Security
Online blogging and diary sites may or may not keep backups of your journal. Some, like LiveJournal, have built-in backup utilities, but those utilities often work poorly or are cumbersome. Saving the journal through third-party software is an option, but can be time-consuming and often will miss some of the peripherals such as comments or photographs.
Most people hope to look back at their diary from time to time, over the course of many years. Unfortunately, it's possible for online diary hosts to close up shop with almost no notice; and, even if you have backed up your files from the site, it may be difficult to find another site or program that will read the backup files correctly. If you are using journaling software, you may have to purchase another version of the software, or an upgrade, at some point. Software companies sometimes also stop making software, leaving you scrambling to find software compatible with the journal files you already have. Converting the software to a new format, if it's possible, may be difficult and time-consuming.

Yi-Ming Arthur Chen, M.D., M.S., Sc.D.
Dr. Chen�s researches focus on the following two areas: a.) Use both transgenic and gene-knockout mouse models to study the function of GNMT in liver tumorigenesis and brain diseases; and b.) Molecular epidemiology and virology of HIV-1, HCV, HHV-8 and influenza virus in Taiwan.
Dr. Chen devoted himself in the prevention and research of HIV-1/AIDS and cancer. In 1990, with his mentor-Professor Max Essex, he published two articles in Lancet describing the type-specific antigens for the distinction between human T-cell leukemia viruses type I and type II and early antibody reactivity of new HTLV-I seroconverters. After he came back to Taiwan, he established the first AIDS research center in 1998. Since 2003, his expertise in the molecular epidemiology and phylogenetic analysis has resulted in the detailed description of the transmission pathways of both SARS coronavirus and HIV-1 circulating recombinant form 07_BC in Taiwan.
Dr. Chen started to study liver cancer when he was a master student at the National Yang-Ming University (NYMU) in 1983. He found that glycine N-methyltransferase (GNMT) was down-regulated in most of the adult liver cancer cells (Int J Cancer 1998). Subsequently, he cloned the human GNMT genome (Genomics 2000) and characterized the genetic polymorphism and identified its liver cancer-associated genotypes (Cancer Res 2003). After nearly 5 years� effort, he developed a GNMT- gene-knockout mouse model (Hepatology 2007) which is very useful for the studies of the pathogenesis and drug development.
