So instead the closet thing I’m reading is Rotary’s Magazine
The Rotarian, December 2008
P.56 a few sentences following the 5th.

“The next year, interested Rotarians formed an international fellowship and in 1999 the RI Board approved a statement encouraging Rotary clubs to take on projects that would impact population growth. In 2005, the group became a Rotarian action group. The group now has 2500 members and has helped implement about 150 projects worldwide, including several major projects addressing maternal and child health in Nigeria (see insert for details).”

Through manipulation and control of the body, clothing, color, emotion, and sexuality, the theocracy has created its own rituals. According to Bloch’s funtionalistic perception, rituals are streategies of power in the reproducing of structures. By “hiding reality” rituals constitute an imaginary, static, transcendental order using formal, repetitive, non-arguable means that legitimate authority.

Mr. Pacardi didn’t sit down and he didn’t offer me a seat. He just stood there in front of a vinyl-covered couch and in heavily accented English said, ” I want to tell you some-thing”.

Thanks for including me in this, if I was chosen twice do I need to post twice?

My targets: Marci, Trolling, Sas, ADB, Hamp.

“But isn’t it curious how many of these reactive behaviors are similar to the list of Asperger’s syndrome “junk behaviors” outlined in the last chapter? If anyone accused you of being unprofessional or even violent in manifesting such behaviors, wouldn’t you defend yourself by explaining they were communications of your tremendous angst, that you were coping the best way you knew how?”

Targets of agression: Debts, SoCal Bubblehead, Spec_Tator, Jimmy57, Dunespeak!

But the brothers amazed me. One of them would drop a halter on a beast, get his fingers into its nose and then be carried away as the animal took off like a rocket. They were thrown about like dolls but they never let go; their fair heads bobbed about incongruously among the black backs: and the thing that fascinated me was that through all the contortions the cigarettes dangled undisturbed.

My invite is a repeat of others: Mpal, Aldreth, Spleng, Klarek and
TWB

“Why Voom cleans up anything. Clean as can be!”
Then he yelled, “Take of your hat now, Little Cat Z!
Take the Voom off your head! Make it clean up the snow! Hurry! You Little Cat! One! Two! Three! GO!”

I’m sending an invite to DebtsNMesses, aapostrophe, mckylie, Bette Defarm and Winifred.

Jon: “I took Garfield to the vet to be declawed.”
“They are removing his stitches next Thursday.”

Lyman: “Poor Garfield.”

Jon: “Who’s talking about Garfield?”
Next frame

Jon: “I’m sorry I tried to have you declawed, Garfield.” “I love you just the way you are, claws and all.”

Garflield (thinking and smiling): “Someday, somehow, when you’re least expecting it, I’m going to shred your bedroom suite.”

Invitation to Klarek, 2Big2Fail, TWB, Spleng and GRI to play.

“By custom, the harpers ate at the first table below the main one. Piemur had never seen the resident Harper, Bantur, and hoped that Menolly and Sebell were already at the table. They were, and chatting in high spirits with Deece, who’d been seconded to Bantur the night Menolly had walked the tables to become a journywoman and with Strud, who’d been posted to a seahold on Igen.”

For larger crowds, I like a narrow, rectangular table, and I put the most talkative people in the center facing each other. This way, the energy of the group is pulled to the middle and the party doesn’t break in to two groups (one group always has more fun). I also like a table that’s a little too small so everyone is elbow to elbow: it feels more intimate that way.

When decorating the table, I make the centerpiece part of the meal. When I made this dinner, the challah was part of the table decoration, but another time I made the whole arrangement from the ingredients for dessert: clementines, dried apricots, and crystallized ginger.

Carrie, Jim Sulli, Spec_tater, mpal, julia
