Curse of the Abyss Worm (Chapter 18: Genealogy)

18

Genealogy

[Dick Earnest is now sitting in his office go through the genealogy of families with Anna Viper and recording it for Anna.]

"Dear Anna, 18th in this band I am writing to you, that is, I think you say because I have already read and write what I need to for this report, I have a kind of genealogy together for you, it may or may not leave open questions, but also my answer, or close some old questions for you. Apart from I would like to say:

There was a deep feud [dispute] between the Trials family, and the Viper family, I have found out. This goes back quite a ways. Sally was really a Viper, as we now know. And Thomas, now Anna listen closely, this is new information-Thomas was born a Trials (Anna listening to the tape in disbelief, re-winding they play back, that replay again and again), but changed its name to Viper his uncle the application, he was in his "last will". For this he received $ 600,000. "Why, you ask?" Yes, I know, you are sure this question, I will let you know later. Whatever their Father, Tyrone Viper, killed the brother of Dennis Trials in 1911 [Azaz] during a gang fight between the Irish [testing] and the Polish [Viper's] feud and Dennis swore that he would extend to all his family one way or another. But Dennis' father was really more the trouble-maker, so it turned out. He was the uncle that paid $ 600000 to Thomas to change his name so he could get revenge Arthur died after themselves. (Anna now shaking his head hearing this band, completely frustrated, but comes at a constant faith, it is now firmly on a chair to sit and listen, rather than pace the floor.) Collected, infect the Viper family in the future, namely Sally, and you, Anna, the foot for such steps - far too much information to digest, but I must shake out the ceiling for you, it is old, very old fears. But believe me, I will You everything I know, I will be in advance so that you and you alone can deal with your future.

Now after I said, I would add that [pause] I can not believe I was to say the tests were family members a cold Group: selfish, reckless, Cleaver, and without awareness, and very, very vindictive - and now says Thomas Viper (who is really a trials) was looking for what he paid to the implementation the revenge, and Sally was in the next row. He knew that many of Sally's moves because of a cult member of the Unbegotten [or Ghost]-it, I say, it was no coincidence, or hand-picking to randomly, it was all quite deliberate and cleverly implemented, if you ask me. Nothing was taken for granted, or the chance to Unbegotten had a powerful crystal and could see, most move they made, and they could hear in times planning their days, and would be back to Thomas, of the Master of The Cult Or vii. It was all planned, step by step, as I believe it can, if you will, simply a springboard to the next victims. And the line it would be you, I expect that they predicted-you. Everything seemed to be planned long before Sally was born, or you were born, or others in the Viper family were born. And you all were an incubator for the virus Worm, or until the end of the days.

Let me now take Anna to another level this diabolical scheme by the Trials family. You see, to Sally Thomas, what would they inspire, Minnesota, a building. And of course, that makes it a cousin all family. Now they lived together, but they did not know he was a vindictive Trials family member, or if it was infected, to the point that immune to the germ of the worm, but was a Winners of the curse-the curse of course, the same disease of the virus worm inside. I hope that this has become clearer to you Anna. I leave a few things to your advantage, and will explain them in the near future, should them.

Mr is necessary. Earnest has said little about the so-called Ghost, the 77-day cult, still leaves specific things. As he told her he would talk more about the Unbegotten (Ghost) of the cult, if necessary , At a later date. But the specific information was omitted: the executioner, whose task was to watch Sally, and in particular to have reported on their dependence on the cult (in the past few years), and Thomas to see and report If its uselessness was declared, and finalized, and leave him to die, and for Anna (because he is the ghost town to ensure that the cult is constantly updated on such things as: When they need safe feeling, and Killing need trust

The Level
�
[The black circle]

(Mr. Earnest, now all rested after taking a long NAP goes back to his work room, sitting on the ground, with a view to its papers, makes a call to New Orleans, said: "Everything is good, I have all the documents on the ground, and I think that's quite all, if not amusing and interesting, very deep, I did not expect to have so much time and effort into this project, but for the benefit I will of science, "with a quiet laugh, he moves his eyebrows up and down a bit, clears his throat, then turns on the tape for more data and information for Anna.)

Dear Anna, here we go with another band :

"Just called New Orleans, family and friends to let them know I'm still on this project, they wonder why it is so long, I think they want me for some other developments, and in any case. No. We are not over with this yet, I think with Sally or Thomas. In essence, Sally was born by Viper blood, and should bear the burden of them. It is the law of the dimensional curse.

No an ever knew was on the back of the Trials' spirit (each of them) and most people would never belong to me, but what I did was find out mysteriously enough, as it was-in other words, his rise and his father led to unprecedented prosperity . Not even the hard times of trouble Trials, the graten part. But a hard fact was: No studies always looked in the mirror if someone else was around. It was obviously a reason. A black ring around their foreheads show. Yes, it seems like a ring circled that the forehead of one to one and a half inches wide, it was a mysterious quality to say the least, a powerful impregnated carbon deep color, almost hypnotic if you stared at him long enough or too long. The tests had this curse, and now it went to the Viper's, as well as the attempts to - let me add that this when the eyes of a person with this spell or a curse, as soon as they packed yours, there have been few Flexibility left in the other person, that's will or effort, would not break the hypnotic-type magnetic trance it could you in - marking a moment of risk that someone was aware that it.

His father (Dennis Trials), they, as well as his father's-father (Arthur Trials). But the curse was now on the Viper family for many generations to follow, and for Sally, and therefore, they would be the true cynical curse for all. It happened on the 77-day cult ", was not involved with this black magic curse, as some thought it was at the time of the Viper on family, but was well aware, test versions of Arthur and his deeds and vindictive -- Ideas, and they had taught him, even some black magic, but the attempts were empowered is inextricably linked with some demonic forces, long before they knew that the group, for the group never had such binding powers in itself, if I am sure They wished they had. If anything, the group helped him use, abuse and monitoring of its powers, reaping together with his powers to perform a status, I know that this is a fact.

And in one respect, it seemed a connection if not inextricable relationship to the four families, and the cult from New Orleans all the links, if I may say that the spread of England, Erie, Nashville, New Orleans, and up to Minnesota. And from my understanding (continued Mr Dick Earnest on the tape with an annoying tone at this point), the Viper and the trial could end a curse, but only with the end of the original line blood, the other option I was looking is an infusion, if not transfusion of blood.

The Corpse-Eaters

[Dick stated on the introduction to the Cult]

To eat the remains of their victims, that's what they did Anna. I hate to say, but it is all part of the cult initiation. Yes, you are left with others in the cellar of the villa, not the food for 77 days, and you're there to eat corpses, when one after 77-days, it is as a liberation, and they leave your arms and Skull, and Faen to eat, and another, if need be, that is, if you will, your heart is in the wrong place. Let me explain:

This is not the normal world [in the cult], and one should not expect that things happen when one thinks or feels it should, during the visit to this world, as expected in their un-- bizarre world. I have this cult even before you hired me Anna. In any case, let me on.

In this world, their world, it can begin familiar, but you will soon discover that it is quite different. In this world, in his deep, deep chambers in their basements the bells ringing, colors of orange, red and purples, pianos playing by themselves; black magic should be examined. Everything slowly marching in these basement chambers, this mansion, the lost time when the corpse-eaters are available, and hunger and loyalty by eating the corpses (Arthur was one of these corpses, as well as many other members, if they are old and dying) .

Sometimes the cost of living, it is still too weak to fight, and wait to die, and the others are waiting for the warm bodies to turn cold, death and dying. This is not an old dilemma for mankind, it has been practiced in Russia not so long ago, let's say, such as 1922, and thereafter. So it was not formulated by the group alone, only borrowed.

In this world like it or not, all suspects of being secretly with each other (in their hearts) a member of the House of Lords real world, the people, which is of course forbidden. This is the reason why they are in the tunnels of this great cellar. And so locked up in this eerie cool environment, each new member must prove that the elite members of their loyalty to the group, which makes a citizen of this /his order, embodied in this league of elite beings, otherwise known as the " 77-Day Cult. "

The cult arose in the 18th Century, the villa was of a man, a man of mystery I was told from Minnesota in the 19th Century, it could be even a trial, no just kidding, how about a Viper, I'm just kidding again, but I would add a $ 1000 dollars to tell you if I could. As always, the order was less prominent in front of the building of the villa they now live in New Orleans. In fact, it was built in 1877, in 77 days. Here, the number seven comes in. Plus, the number for the group was chosen because of other reasons, a being that God created the Earth in 6 days and rested on 7 and so if it's good enough for him, it is good enough for them-so I am told. Plus, in the Bible, in Mt. 7:7 reads: "Ask and you will receive." Also in the cult, they wanted that verse so much they adapted it to their cannon - so if you are a member, everything you need to do is, "Ask and you will receive." And so Anna, I thought this little story would be of interest for you.

[He now disabled the tape: "If I told her so much?" Mr. Earnest now even questions? -- Then turns back to the tape.]

I had cough, so I turned off the tape, Anna, but let us go with him. Since I was about to say and I'm still ahead of me, yes, yes, jump before I guess I am, I would like a little back. The curse was down by the tests of the family or the ability to give his father Dennis, and Dennis' father Arthur. Everything comes from what was called "The Great Lie." One was a promise to God, and not be held:-the lie left of the liars with a black circle around his forehead owner (in the form of a curse), when you're in a mirror of the owners would see the lie; sense, the You already know, the stamp of disapproval. And so Dennis Trials, resembles his father, and Thomas both believe that the Great Lie unresolved, lively, and lost the grace of God safety on the road, or long ago, but you want it, and the boy's death (the brother's death) , Transferred it to the Viper's, but never lost the tests, which means they never got rid of, it's just migrated, which is part of a "liar" and the new curse to curse the family Viper This black circles not appear on the Viper's women immediately, but as time went on, and only after the first, and then, through the commitment of the mortal sin, killing the first born, was the second curse, man could say her curse, because it was within the bodies of the Viper's, by killing the first born son of the tests years. And so the test for the Viper's was to kill the first born of her sons until such time as the curse lives, or both curses alive could be added in which, when reversed, that is, when they would not kill her first born (they qualified as a good deed), would the return of their sanctification, not only from God to God, but it would deteriorate the curse back on the tests-the possible release would be the Viper family curse forever, but again remember the first born was always so ugly like a rat, if not even demonic in nature itself, and even possibly infected by the worm. Until then, it will, and I think with the words "them" up to this point anyway, the Viper's remained in the possession of a curse, and sometimes , Viper young people, bought the dark band around the forehead, back on her first lie that appear in the mirror� as I expect you could have started or possible you have not told a lie, and I know for a fact, you have not yet thought of a child -; dependence on these facts Anna, I hate to say your sinful past or past-infected or non-sinful past Anyway, all your results, or can, this is your future looks Your past, and if the Worm virus lives in you now that it is determined to a certain extent your results; another variable to address all these data.

In addition to all this, holding the oncoming demons of this world to bay, as VII, over the 77-day sect ", and his friend of Tiamat, and Lady Belinda, and the executioner (or otherwise known as The Cult Master), all at a race itself, or would be very difficult for a Viper he /they are trying and we must remember, I think you Anna, these people I talk would certainly benefit from your [Anna] historical past. In the same way as the curses you are exposed can power, control, also influence a person's death, some people like these power.

The Viper family is not only open for the tests, but on the new Viper ' s, now inherit the curse. But when the last Trials died, so did their curse for the tests, as it's the Viper I assume that you Anna, unless you have a child, but if you do not have a child, and you do not have the black ring, you will be hunted and hunted for the rest of your life for the label under the curse in essence is that you are among the chosen from "The Tombs Eldritch," the graves and dark vault hell, where the henchman Agaliarept lives, and where the demons to account (Lucifer's dungeon if you will). The child could be the key, and your death, and� oh, many other things. And so again, they (the Viper family) were at the mercy of demons: The attempts to get the cult and in the future, possibly after the Viper's Viper's .

I will send along a drawing of I found him in all of this paperwork, the Agaliarept That is, if you want to do some research on it, go to help themselves:

Arthur received gifts of money from the demonic forces to take him in the realm of cult committed. That is the reason why he never lost money, he sold his soul, as Belinda for long life and beauty, one thousand years long life, and the attempts as Arthur for ongoing support. Plus, he liked not vindictive, as we all know by now. "

"It is not a hoss I ever saw that I git to compare cuz it is not worth youall she got to feed and water, and bed, and they can do fer itself," said Josh Old and added, "it is not worth one U.S. dollars for each of them that it is over there saddle more than that pole fence is worth more than the hosses. Yessum the cause hosses Yaw Nothin 'but problems. Ef'in And I had my choice I would kill them all fer horsemeat, and feed it to the pig Yessum they are not worth a cent, now that I think about it. "

The auctioneer told everyone get ready, the auction was just before Start, there were several men sitting on the fence posts waiting for the corral offer in the five-horse, that's all what they had five horses in the Corral, and not all the major search either:

"Come on boys!" said Josh, but Silas did not move, he said: "Wes has to buy a hoss cuz Mr High Tower did you twenty dollars per year, and I heard him say," Josh yous better listen, cuz I will Hoss, and I want him today, you hear me? 'And you say: "I hear you Mr. High Tower, not you not be afraid, cuz I got it all figured out!"

A some of the buyers looked in the direction of Josh, Josh, and said in a whisper

"Shut yo' mouth I Doin 'Business yous yes, but "do not know!"

Jordon then said: "Come now pa, why gittin 'hungry, buy a hoss, so that we can go on home and eat." (It was always hot, and late in the afternoon,)

"Ok son, I'll fifteen cents for hoss that with the big eyes, Brin ', that there are more than hoss son, I want to see him closer ... "

And the stable boy did as he told, and Josh from faces on the horse to irritate him, and even spit in horse-face, and gave it a good blow to the nose, and the horse jumped and jerked a bit, dignity unmanageable for a moment, nobody saw Josh spit, slap or the horse, but nobody Josh, Silas and the stable boy, as Josh obviously preferred it.

"Go now," says Josh, " and if yous go around the corral again, that hoss back to me. "

" Ok, forks, "said the auctioneer," how about five U.S. dollars per capita at the beginning of five dollars for each horse you see. "

And some large white man, sitting on Mr. Smile's fence, where the auction takes place, said:" I reckon I can say that the five for one with the big eyes. "

Said the auctioneer,

"The horse is the best of the lot, such as ten or even twenty dollars for it, I hear a higher bid?"

The boys brought the horse with the big eyes to return to Old Josh, and he went to pat the horse on the face-makes sure that everyone saw him do it and the horse jerked back, and the man who bet five dollars, saw him pull back, and Josh made a face, Josh looked as whether it is fear (but he was not a matter of course, it was all show and say,), and the high man who looked like he wanted to bid ten U.S. dollars, but after seeing the horse buck back, and backpacks, and Josh remained shudder he stopped suddenly with his bid, looked the auctioneer, said with one voice sceptical

"I am a certain 'it for everyone who wants it for $ 6.00, because I am not another dollar bid for the wild Animal. " Josh quickly

Old said

"I suppose I GOTS to take The Wild One, cuz I's a nigger, and youall want the best, so I GITS the worse, ok, gives me the hoss for $ 6, 00 and I take him like he is. "

The auctioneer was speechless, but the horse took almost a bite by Josh's hand, so what could he say

" Ok, Josh, Mr. High Tower's Got A real lot on this horse. " (And the auctioneer went to the next horse.)

Old Josh, he looked happier than a mouse with a pound of cheese on their backs, went away with the horse, said to his two boys,

"Yo" ole pa, he ain & # 39; tonnes, as dump youall think he is, "and he laughed all the way back to the High Tower Plantation, was not so far, and spoke with one voice clever, walking with a quiet horse now,

" We do goin 'to git fourteen U.S. dollars worth of Moonshine Granny Mae. And I think we are goin 'to call the Hoss, Dynamite! "

What Can You Say About This?

This is an analysis of recent representation of an unwed mother in the Bollywood film, Kya Kehna! (Kundan Shah, 2000, future KK). The title, easily into the rhetorical, "What can you say?" has additional significance as a laudatory exclamation point in the direction of the film young heroine. Targeting a younger audience, the film was celebrated as a challenging exploration of female sexuality and empowerment of women. The film in fact reaffirms traditional stereotypes of women in their behaviour is carefully controlled within a patriarchal framework. Despite the unpleasant fact that the main character the state of motherhood is the result of the pre-marriage because of sex, nationalist mechanisms are into the game glorifying the ideal of woman as a mother. Unwed motherhood is not unknown, since a half-page hidden plot of Hindi film, but it is very unusual to find it as the main story focus.

A close textual reading of the KK will be a detailed comparison with an earlier film, which apparently served as Template for future production. Julie (KSSethumadhavan, 1975), is a film that deals with the same issue with a sensitivity unsurpassed in the recent film. Further, placing KK among other simultaneous releases, will show how-even in a film, not the political front, patriotic, religious or nationalist subtexts stories can be found in its dealings with pre-marriage on the grounds of sex, religion, and the staging of its conclusion.

The influences of economic liberalization and increased Hindutva mood in India (and local tensions), and the implications of NRI (Non-Resident Indian) community are all factors that play a role in shaping the current Bollywood ideology And its effects are visible in this film. Finally viewer response and the concept of women "uplift" addressed.

With a national cinema as varied as that in India, it should come as no surprise that a kind of "trend" is proclaimed almost every day. A cursory glance through a stack of old issues of Filmfare, an Indian film magazine, will show an unlimited number of outdated claims that popular film is in the direction of "new" ideological or visual horizons. With the benefit of retrospect, but we can see that most of these trends is a mere Blips in the massive, complex and variable field, the Indian cinema. This paper is a response to an allegation of Anupama Chopra, film critic of the India Today, said that "the Bollywood rules are bent beyond all recognition" because "a new generation of educated, savvy and sassy women are demanding better roles . "1 It is true that, historically, the majority of women's roles in commercial Indian film were selected from a limited selection of formulas, and there were occasional cluster of films that veer away from that standard now and then. Chopra was, in this case that a recent series of films with top billing for women whose characters can be found in unusual situations Hindi film, with sometimes surprising plot twists.

These films have been promoted as a "progressive" in their efforts to address difficult, women-oriented issues such as rape, unwed motherhood, and surrogate pregnancy. In general, the Indian cinema press, including Chopra, has trumpeted these films is an additional "new wave" of issue-oriented movies aimed at women, even though the audience response was more mixed.3 While there seems to be no doubt, that a number of new films are the risks in dealing with taboo subjects until now, it is not the case that the role of women, a new, progressive standard. Chopra himself admits that despite this flood of bold new roles for women, grate part of the popular films still show women as "Eye Candy" and that "politics are largely regressive."

This is an analysis of recent representation of an unwed mother in such a Bollywood film, Kya Kehna! (Kundan Shah, 2000, future KK). The title, easily into the rhetorical, "What can you say?" has additional significance as a laudatory exclamation point in the direction of the film young heroine. In line with the marketing strategy of the film-makers, I decided to paraphrase the title into something more current slang, as follows: "You Go Girl!" Targeting a younger audience, the film was celebrated as a challenging exploration of female sexuality and empowerment of women. I will show that the film is in fact reaffirmed the traditional stereotypes of women in their behaviour is carefully controlled within a patriarchal framework. Despite the unpleasant fact that the main character the state of motherhood is the result of the pre-marriage because of sex, nationalist mechanisms are into the game glorifying the ideal of woman as mother-Mother.

Unwed is not unknown, since a half-page hidden - plot of Hindi film, but it is very unusual to find it as the main narrative focus. A narrow textual reading of the KK will be a detailed comparison with an earlier film, which, I believe, served as a template for future production. Julie (KS Sethumadhavan, 1975), is a film that deals with the same issue with a sensitivity unsurpassed in the recent film. Then, by situating KK among other simultaneous releases, I hope to show how, even in a film, not the political front, patriotic, religious or nationalist subtexts stories can be found in its dealings with premarital sex, religion, and the staging of its conclusion. The influences of economic liberalization and increased Hindutva mood in India (and local tensions), and the implications of NRI (Non-Resident Indian) community are all factors that play a role in shaping the current Bollywood ideology, and its impact visible in this film. Finally, taking into account the audience react, I will briefly on issues of genre and the concept of women "uplift". First, for readers familiar with the Bombay film industry, a brief history of Bollywood cinema is a background against which this current developments on placed.

Zam, In - White Gorillas ((1811-1813)(From the Old Josh Series))

There was not worried or confusing thoughts of the future, for ZAM, and his mother, the black boy was eight years old, it was 1811, the future was not even in his eyes only the occasional reminders of his mother told him that remember that his mother Zamia, to remember him because of his surroundings, the tropical forests of the Kongo was his home, a very attractive image of beauty in nature best. The equatorial sun beat through the tense jungle, the green sea of green on his head, the canopy of leakage devouring much of the sun. His father was killed by one of the great apes, if during his infancy.

Today was 1813, he had just ten years old, and it was a day of loafing as many days in the rain forest, outside the large village, running his fingers through his mother's hair as they lay against a tree, simply adoring her! He had no brothers or sisters.

She, his mother looked to her son, for a few minutes she saw him, caress his arm, stroked it, she had this boy she was proud. She had catlike eyes, saw someone or something that is too close up, and as a lion would snarl even to produce a deep knurren, but it was a small woman, bloodshot eyes.

Zam 'muscles were stiff, and he was a big boy for eight large shoulders at him, as bull monkeys, compared to his father. Gray eyes, which in turn dark born, he stood up, looked at, squatted, played with the Monkey's, and ate some bananas and even some grub worms, he was hungry. He was not the holy everything except a bull monkeys, nature, killed his father, and the Monkey's, he was their antagonist.

It was a life graten part of the violent content, they lived as the Sparrows, belly full found, what to eat, monkey meat. He has never had any of the white man, or in other countries in the world, he was in his world, jungle, the rain forest his fate, after his mother was to survive and die every day in the earth to make room on the other hand To get something back. That, if necessary, to court death to save your family from the Fangs of the lions, this wild beast were the enemy, not the man himself. Never-not, as the king of the village knew would Zamia's fall down as if it were their son. (We can not blame them for their ignorance, in what has taken place for this day even in the most advanced countries of that time until today that I get this writer, the man elects leaders, and leaders in most cases work on the topic of self-interest, and it was to be that way with the king, but he himself would have been a surprise, you play with the devil, expect no mercy.)

For the graten part Zam was still in The development of these layers of untried muscles, he would use in future time undeveloped and untried fighting muscles, and he would learn how to bits and fight and run, and the javelin throw, if given time to do, and his Mother was very proud of his achievements in his current young age. But his attention was distracted when he saw the strangest thing, white men, or were they gorillas, in conversation with their king. He asked his mother, "Is this a new kind of monkey?"

He knew the beetles, and the caterpillar, the mouse and the elephant, and the lion and a lot more animals and insects, such as the monkey and Monkey's, and the many species of birds, but this new creature was different, had Beard and mustaches, and lots of clothes, and they were snatching black man, even when they run out they ran after them, they jumped them, while in pursuit. The idea in his head was: the king is angry, his face showed, apparently because she had done wrong, these comrades, black men, had done a kind of false, and these new creatures were trying to locals to him.

The Zam approached King and his mother, led the seven white men to them, not a formal introduction, but it says in essence, "they are my special friends from afar, they came to do business," and the king was going to make it to that of the boy and his mother, where they were, the boys noticed they had chains with them, with preference for the King, Zamia not run, not the opinion, an escape. The type said: "The boy needs his mother, he is too young for travel in the ship from you," he had said that this is the white men, but Zam did not know what kind of ship, or Travel, and felt all alone with his mother talking, talking about him and his mother, in the third person as if they were not 'exist. He could hardly formulate the right thoughts, to find out what happening.

Then the leader of the white man said: "They are all savages, including the king, attached or unattached they all", and they grabbed Zam and his mother, and the king, these men knew neither fear nor mercy was, they became a strange Zam inexplicable force, and now the mother and Zam both fought for their freedom.

One the men received a noose around the neck of the boy, the mother of this stopped Fighting, and he king was unconscious, he was hogtied to a polo, carried out by chained to black men, and when he awoke to the beaches, he was like an angry boar, but his grunts only gave reason to white men to slash a whip in his back. And the boy looked at his mother, said: "White gorillas," he saw it as his enemy, the enemy of his father, those who killed his father.

The river winds, the village of huts, all of this was that all to be used, was away for a new life to torture, on a ship, he thought looked more like a monster crocodile slow, as a wooden vessel.

Gentleman's Guide to Greeting Cards

How do women seem to always get it right and men always seem to rush around petrol stations trying to find the perfect card.

By reading our Gentleman's Guide to Greeting Cards, you'll see just how EASY it is to always get the most AMAZING response from every greeting card you send the women in you life. And because they've always gone to so much trouble to find the perfect card, so should you!

We know you have MUCH better things to do than to buy a card for your wife, girlfriend or mother. And we know that most men have been genetically re-engineered to avoid shop and shopping. The results from our recent survey have shown that men in general (not all of you) get card buying wrong and hardly put any thought into the card they buy or the sentiment they convey.

Is it any wonder that 70% of the women in our lives say that they love receiving cards from their men, but they all can tell that the gesture was completely rushed. Only 3% of women surveyed said that the sentiment inside the card was meaningful.

Gentlemen, with a little help you'll always make every card stand out and you'll make sure that every card given is treasured. After all you wouldn't turn up to a dinner date carrying a cheap bottle of wine?

So here's what you need to do:

Step one: Forget all you think you know about cards and the importance of occasions. Cards aren't a waste of money; your partner does care about the greeting cards you give her; they ARE kept long after the occasion has passed; a cheap 'funny' card from the corner shop/petrol station isn't always suitable to acknowledge a special occasion. Finally, ALL occasions are SPECIAL.

Step two: Be prepared. Find a site that will not only sell you greeting cards but also has a host of clever services to help you. Then bookmark that site. Supermarkets are convinient, petrol stations are opened 24/7...but they are not always the best place to find that special card...for that special person.

Step three: Think about using an online reminder service. Let them take the hassle out of having to remember those special dates. That way you'll get a gentle remind you two weeks in advance of any important celebrations or key dates that are approaching.

Step four: Make a little more effort. Some sites have free to use advice pages which are packed with hints and tips on everything from what to write in your greeting card to how to perfectly wrap your gift. Please don't worry, doing it the correct way will actually SAVE you time but more importantly the recipient will be astonished at your greeting or gift giving prowess.

Step five: That's it. Sit back and relax. You'll never have to rush around in a mad panic looking for a suitable card, because if you've chosen an online greeting card store well, the would have taken care of it for you.

If you've ever woken in the middle of the night and just remembered that the next morning is your wife's birthday; if you've ever tried to buy the last overpriced Valentine card on the 12th February or if ever you've had to come up with a lame excuse as to why you don't have a card...then you'll know what we mean.You'll always get the best response from every card you send, you'll always impress with your gift wrapping and they will always know just how special they are to you!

Or you could carry on doing what you've always done. Carry on making it slightly harder for yourself than you really need to. Keep looking at that expectant look on your wife's, girlfriend's or mother's face as the greeting card is handed over, the envelope is opened and that expectant look turning into that knowing smile because at least you remembered. The same look that a puppy gets when it's not behaved as well as it should.

Isn't it about time you got an amazing response from her. Go on, do it for the next occasion and see the difference.

Juan Muino is the founder of http://artofgreetings.com which supplies design-led greeting cards to customers who appreciate style and elegance. You'll find a host of free services such as a reminder service and card personalisation and a resource centre at http://artofgreetings.com/advice

The Key (A Fairytale) Goodbye, My Son - Chapter 11 - (Part 1)

Conqueror limped stiff, but was always eager to start a new journey, the loving spontaneity of adventure as much as I do. Occasional blowing warm air greeted us as we made our way down the mountain convinced me to take my coat to wrap and tie it to the horse. I was not sure where we were with the exception of the head to follow the holy man card, but I have learned that there were two references to a cave, one of Sahmad and one for the holy man's sketch, and there Caves were cold and wet, the fur could prove useful someday. I had a strange feeling about this cave.

We our descent without incident, only a few storm clouds in the distance.

It began harmlessly enough, barely a trickle. This is how things always started with me - innocent - but then the big sky opened their sluices, unleashing angry, broiling clouds and storms, drove in threatening, slate-grey skies.

The storm forced us to stop and shelter in the higher foothills where we were under the huge Delta and huge flood plains of Mount MonoTracer strongly annoyed us remember that they must be crossed. But at least we were now safe for the torrential rains hampered the performance of my enemies. The storm in his compassion protected this king and his wounded charger, at least for now.

My view was through the land that was my home. The immensity of the drama unfolded before me was breathtaking, painting his endless splendor of the landscape. Tigers, elephants, each type of animal was confused on the run, eyes wild, the sweltering jungle looking for higher ground and refuge. And I ran so good, but only water was not my enemy.

We could see the delta under the anilmals tried to flee as the water ran them together in the direction of security, and since I saw this tragedy unfold, I experienced a powerful Insight - that every living creature treasures, just as I do - and suddenly the viewfinder's key rule of not killing a living being was no longer abstract. The Flash insight was so powerful that they are permanently dyed my opinion, with an indelible commitment to a new perspective on life, a new character, which remain constant, no matter how many lives I would have to endure. I knew that my fundamental trends have been changed if I could not kill the soldiers in the courtyard, and now this understanding was intuitive and durable, since they come from my head in my heart.

Permanent changes in my awareness was only when I could see , 'And until they see "took place, which could only happen in each of incredible moment, I would only thoughts and opinions, that change like the wind. This refusal to kill would be ridiculous, seemed to me at once, but after this direct communication, an emanation from the source, I knew that I was finished with the killing forever. I had the teeth, nails and hair of an animal, but I was no longer an animal in my heart. I was a man with responsibility and the ability to understand in a much deeper level. What would be the next life hold for a murderer and his motives confused, and vice versa, what would it a hold understood and sacrificed his life, while forgiveness?

The contact with the key seekers on the mountain, my experience with the holy man, deepening and my inner work had an incredible influence on this phase of my spiritual life. He opened an extended observation of life from a strange and beautiful perspective . It seemed that in some strange way, my physical appetite fell away while my spiritual bodies were flowering, a radical difference in the way I experienced things. I now circled around the life again but this time in a more refined level and visibility. My wrong Center or "self", this individuality was also produced gradually fade, and although this idea of a personality still clung to me like a smell, it was weakening.

Long I have the idea of religious rituals and beliefs as an answer, because I could see where they are produced and sustained a self rather als''Demontage. I knew that only by the actions of this self-produced kamma '& # 39; made, and only through insight would kamma and the bogus self-employment, the resolved.

When removed his hood in the temple, I saw the true face of my doubts as well, and they leave immediately.

Realizing that my personality would not continue after death , Then see the futility and foolhardiness of relying on religious beliefs to find the key instead of my own efforts, and finally to overcome doubts - these three successes positioned myself at the threshold "Stream input", where I would suffer in a material body not more than seven more lifetimes.

The magician once said: "My heart is breaking for those who do not listen, because there is nothing you can do to help them, everything you will be able to do is quiet , The never-ending passion they are determined to endure in their future life. "I could see now, and I felt great compassion for those who were unconscious or perhaps responding to higher thoughts, those who are unable to understand how much more there is to life other than what it perceived prisons reveal.

Yearnings For Home

Last week gave me the joy of clear focus time with family and friends. Out-of-state travel. The wedding of the baby sitter, helped me raise our children. Zureckstreifend our son safely in plebe summer in the United States Naval Academy. Reunification with Nick, was removed in Summer School. Visiting old friends from Kentucky, moved to have Nashville, and the connection almost two decades worth of memories with up-to-date goings in our separate lives.

I now could write a book about the Academy of induction day alone. The last hug with our son as a civilian. The formal swearing-in ceremony. Twelve hundred freshly shaved heads donned in sailor caps invisible sit in the lawn chairs in the expanse of lawn in front of the huge building where important people spoke. The last half hour. Watching him get in line with its train. And then the final eye permanently imprinted in my brain of twelve hundred men and women marching through the vault. In the what may well be the most grueling six weeks of their lives. The pain of separation. The Verdrossenheit on our mood that night. The lump in the neck and then flop in stomach.

And to DC, where we witness yet another 4th July ceremony in the Mall Sitting on blankets under the stars and the rain. With durchnate easily soaked bodies and spirits. Trying to Energize us with less of a child in tow. And enjoy the fireworks without confessing, according to how much we missed our saen Ben.

My man drove the two remaining children in our brood back home, while Nick Head south again to College for a new round of the Summer School And I headed west to visit two friends cherished in Nashville. Gnedig housing both me and give me the big tour a city in which I do not know their hospitality has something to me, which I very much needed at this moment. Still suffering from severe pain, homesick for my son, the plebe, I needed at this moment-but not consciously detect even recognize it to the time the warm cocoon of home. Friends and trusted confidant shared past. From deep-seated memories. Laughter. Recognized southern accent (something I have not heard much in these last five years in Connecticut). From hanging in jammies during the breakfast. The watching video of the wedding of her son, a wedding I regret that he missed, and together cry about his tenderness. And enjoy their promise for a bright future for two grand newlyweds. From the performance of their new grandchildren. And catching up with their now grown daughter and her new husband.

And to the wedding of our dear Hannah. Now twentysomething and movie-star gorgeous. Thin as a noodle and search more than smashing in her white dress equipped, veiled head and pull-up hair with a perfect make-up, from which none of the t-shirted and blue-jeaned past, if my children while they I mean, husband. Eating burritos wedding celebration-a favorite Hannah with their older siblings brought a lock of memories, as we noshed on chips and sipped wine while catching up with all important details of our lives.

This the weekend reinforced the notion of home for me. It helped me realize more than ever that the transfer between the family ties and deep friendships-do no coincidence. Or, legal transfer of title. Transfer of warmth and love through generations, through the simple but thoughtful acts in the daily rhythms of life, through years of repetition, hard work and discipline, grow into something powerful.

Not all families survive the persistence of our children. The in-laws sometimes hate the robbers. The mother-in-laws sometimes buck heads with the daughters or sons. Not all friendships survive hundreds of kilometres of geographical separation. Dinner dates are few and far between. Celebrations of life important events are sometimes missed. Catch-up calls are delayed. Birthdays are forgotten.

But is this thing we call at home this is the most important of all. Not the physical home to secure. Houses and apartments. Polster faded and the China breaks. But the substance at home remains embedded in our veins in a way that can not be easily forgotten or ignored. It is the smell. The visuals. The colors. The accents.

The hugs. The time spent. The victims on personal matters. Meals get shared and exchanged photos. Lives up to on.

It is that sustains us. This allows us to find and follow the joy.

I 'm always ready, another trip this weekend. This time see my old mother. And meet with my brother and my sister and their children. To clean the family home, where we all grew up to turn it into smaller and quieter district. A wheelchair access and disabled characters in their own little spot on the parking lot. The circle of life goes on. Intergenerational transmission of love. From CARE. The yet another way to define home.

As you travel this summer to visit family and friends, I hope that you fulfil your desires at home. In what way do you define it.

Godspeed.

The Process of Anagama Wood Firing

"The Anagama kiln is a type of ancient pottery kiln brought to Japan from China over Korea in the 5th century. Anagama A (a Japanese term meaning" cave kiln ") consists of a combustion chamber with a firebox at one end and a Fang smoke on the other side. (Wikipedia). Ungebrannten ceramics are stacked in a barrel vaulted chamber with a "firebox" at one end and a chimney on the other side. The kiln is completely sealed, except for a small opening to stoke wood. An anagama works because the fire at one end produces a large amount of ash and is drawn through the chamber filled to the chimney. As the oven heats up to temperatures approaching 2300 � F (1400 � C) the ash is super heated and creates a natural glaze on the work.

Anagama Firing Process

An anagama is fueled with firewood. The kiln is fired continuously for about five days. This requires an enormous amount of wood, a good estimate is five to seven cords of wood. Wood is consumed in the fire very quickly and teams of potters are usually adding wood every few minutes around the clock for the entire firing.

In the beginning, the temperature rises slowly, so that the work does not crack from thermal shock. After about 800 � F, the temperature is increased until it reached the 2200-2300 � F-mark. It is at this temperature for about 36 hours. In this way, the ashes and embers to build in the pottery. After the cycle has reached an end, fuelling the hole is sealed and the oven stays cool for seven days.

After the kiln is cool, it is opened and the work can be unloaded. The wood fire process is very unpredictable. You are never sure when you unseal the kiln will have what happened. Pieces close to the combustion chamber can be extremely crusts ash, and the direction the back is nice warm shades of brown or orange or another color. The firing process is quite violent and sometimes the work is broken or cracked. It really is magical to unload the kiln and see what happens this time.

Due the enormous amount of work involved, anagama fired furnaces are generally only a few times a year. Some artists only once in the fire year.
