"You are so young, so before all beginning, and I want to beg you as much as I can, to be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer." -Rainer Maria Rilke.

So I got this Katie a while back and I just took her out of the box and her hair is a mess! I combed it through and a lot of hair came out! Can anyone tell me what I can do to get her hair feeling and looking nice? I'm really disappointed in the state her hair came in and I would like to salvage her wig.

I am asking this question after 65 years as a kid I have been bitten by stray dogs taken 14 injections in my stomach at St George hospital VT..
Later I was bitten several times by Keith Kangas cocker spaniel several times the anti rabies injection was already there in my stomach they reduced the quantity .
Do I hate dogs no late 80s I had two Alsatians had to give them away when we went to live in rented premises.
However due to the
several dog bites in
my childhood I have
gone mental senile

added some creativity
but no profit or gain

maternal family my
uncle Choudhan was
totally mad his mind

get wet delirious dancing
in Lucknow opposite his
shop..that memory i
have retained. Was my
uncle bitten by a dog

the grave fully drained
I am already feeling the
symptoms of insanity

Too old for ambulance chasing? No need if you're an on the nose politician and there's an election looming! The ambulances will chase you.
Every ambulance I've seen lately has a political message, a protest, scrawled on a window. This was the first one I saw, so I had to stop for a closer look!
I love the Question Mark's shape and the question mark like marking on the outer upper wing (see in comment section).

Originaly I thought it was a victim of a heteropteran predator but the massive bulk of the body, which was a least double that of other aphids sharing the same plant, caused me to wonder if the excessive bulk was from housing an internal parasitoid which then eat its way out.
Any ideas welcome
Aphidius (a genus of aphid parasitic wasps) I believe to be the culprit from other pictures that I have seen. The hole being the exit hole of the adult wasp.

Having never been to this part of the preserve area, which is the fourth oldest in Illinois, many questions came to mind. First off, who was Cap Sauers?
It took a little digging, but then I came upon a tribute to him, written in "People and News" from the Illinois Periodicals Online (IPO), a digital imaging project at the Northern Illinois University Libraries funded by the Illinois State Library. This was written in 1970: "Cap" Sauers after more than forty years in parks and conservation service retired in 1965. Upon retirement "Cap" was honored by this Association with an honorary life membership.
Charles G. "Cap" Sauers, 77, General Superintendent Emeritus of the Cook County Forest Preserve District, and general superintendent from 1929 to 1964, passed away on May 12 in his home in Hinsdale.
Mr. Sauers was one of the most colorful figures in the parks field. A combination man-of-the-soil and academician, he was a tall, gangling figure in a broad-rimmed hat, colorful vest, bow tie and heavy tweeds. Most of the time it was hard to find him— he's out somewhere inspecting his domain, the nature belt that rings the city of Chicago.
Sauers lived in a sprawling house on a 15 acre plot that has been described as a park in itself. He grew his own vegetables. He was early to bed (before 9 every night) and early to rise (4 a.m.) and spent the early hours in his "morning room" reading "egghead" magazines, detective stories, historical novels and biographies. A large library of cookbooks is testimonial to his love of the culinary art.
Sauers was a graduate of Purdue University, where he received his Bachelor of Science in Agriculture (Horticulture) in 1915, and studied landscape architecture at Harvard Graduate School in 1916 and 1917. Then he answered the call of his country and served as a Captain of Field Artillery from 1917 to 1919.
From 1919 to 1929 he served as Assistant to the Director and Superintendent of Lands and Waters, Indiana Department of Conservation. This was the beginning of state parks in Indiana and the major system was developed in these years.
Sauers served as a member of the Board of Directors of the National Conference on State Parks and the American Institute of Park Executives for various terms. He assisted in the inauguration of the National Conference on State Parks in Des Moines in 1920. In 1928 he lectured on the Pacific Coast for the National Conference on State Parks, with funds provided by the Rockefeller Foundation.
Sauers was a member of the Advisory Board on National Parks Historic Sites, Buildings and Monuments from 1941 to 1952. Since he was a member and chairman of the Conservation Advisory Board, State of Illinois.
He received the Pugsley bronze medal of the American Scenic and Historic Preservation Society in 1930, was an Honorary Fellow of the A.I.P.E., a Fellow of the A.S. L.A., and was a member of Delta Tau Delta, Sigma Delta Chi, and Alpha Zeta fraternities.
Sauers spent 40 years in the acquisition, development and operation of natural landscapes for the use of people. He was the man who had to be forced by his County Board to take a $1,200 a year pay boost instead of three per cent—or $540—he allotting himself because that was what had been granted other county workers.
One of his colleagues still at work with the Cook County Forest Preserve District gave him this tribute, "No one, whose privilege it was to know him is likely to forget him. What he preached he practiced. What he believed he believed with heart and soul. He was truly a great man."
Charles Goodwin "Cap' Sauers (1894-1970)

ESL Teaching Is Not Just An Extended Vacation
I have been receiving a lot of questions recently from close and old friends about working as an English teacher abroad. While I have received many of the same questions that I have answered in my posts specifically about being an ESL Teacher and how to Get a Job Teaching ESL they still have an underlying tone that being an ESL teacher abroad is just an extended vacation. While I do admit, I had originally gotten a job teaching ESL to help me travel, this is still a job and many days can be a grind. I can’t help but emphasize, though, ESL teaching is not just an extended vacation. Just because this kind of job does not have many barriers to entry, it is still a job and can be, and will be, very difficult at times.
I don’t want to scare anyone off. I might have personally lightly made this decision but there is a reason I also made the decision to stay for the second year and coming upon my fouth but now at a new school, new position, and a new country. I really do enjoy my life and my role as an English teacher. I enjoy teaching and helping kids accomplish something.
I have to say that the job itself is not the hardest part its all the extra stuff that comes along with it. I am not going to go into the problems and issues that happen with teaching as I feel that many of those are pretty obvious. Dealing with rowdy kids, behavior issues, how to handle a classroom, and how to properly teach different children who learn differently is something that is sorta assumed in almost any kind of educational role.
A few things that may or may not happen to you but they have happened to many people who have done this kind of position in the past, and they will happen to individuals who do this type of position in the future.
One, don’t expect your local co-workers to show an interest in you. Many of them have seen foreigners come and go several times, and you are just the latest flavor. With that said I have made some great friends with my local coworkers and have even attended some of their weddings as well as going on vacation with some of them. However, I have heard from friends and some of my colleagues that sometimes they don’t feel like trying to become good friends with the foreigners because they are just going to leave soon anyway. Maybe they had made great friends with foreigners in the past, and they left so it is just not the same anymore. However, being friendly and trying to be friends with the locals is in your best interest. Your local co-workers can and will either make or break your time abroad. So whether you think they don’t want to be your friend or not, it is still 100% in your best interest to be friendly and cordial at every opportunity.
Second, while most working places frown upon speaking about your paychecks, it usually can be assumed that as a Native English speaker you are going to be making more money than your local counterparts, Often times even if they have been there a long time and possibly even better qualified. You may or may not get resentment for that, but do not be too surprised if it does happen to you. This is obviously a sensitive subject because even if you like your pay and they like their pay if they find out you are making more they might resent you for it. This is is just something to be aware of and know that it can be sensitive.
Third, this one might be obvious but many places that hire native English speakers, if they could get away with not hiring them, they would. You are simply a foreign face that is required for them to operate and if they could get away with only hiring a local, they would. I know at one of my positions it has happened on more than one occasion that I have personally had to swap classes with a local counterpart because a parent complained saying they only wanted a foreign teacher for their child. This is not always the case, and I know at the places I have worked, my local counterparts are amazing, but many parents expect a foreigner. My boss, for the most part, has always been great, and I have never had an issue, but I know people at others schools that have.
Lastly, office politics and behavior. This is one that can always be difficult even in your home country but now you are no longer at home, and a new set of rules are in place. You are not a local, don’t speak the local language and are at an immediate disadvantage. A person has to be careful here as many times it’s the person who can’t defend themselves in the local language that will be in trouble for many things. This has never happened to me, but I have heard many stories and met people personally that this has happened too. You already had to be careful about what you say and do at work back home but in a new country, you have to be extremely cautious. Not only do I have to deal with the locals (or whatever country you are teaching or planning on teaching in) I also have to deal with my fellow teachers who, even though they can speak English, are not from the same place as me. Even if we share the same country we do not share the same part of that country. I have had co-workers from Ireland, England, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Kenya, Philippians, Russia, and China. If you think all these people have the same office mindset as you or think the same things are funny, or want to talk about the same things as you, you are very sadly mistaken. People’s humor are very different and per the reasons above they might already dislike you. My advice is to wait to make any jokes in the office or actually speak up too much until you have gotten to know the people you work with. If you are at a place with many foreigners, you will have to learn to work and get along with people from several backgrounds. Multiple countries speak English natively, and all have their own unique cultures and individuals, not only will have you have to learn to work with them but learn the native business culture as well.
I hope this helps people to stay out of trouble and come to a better understanding of becoming an ESL teacher abroad. ESL Teaching is not just an extended vacation it is so much more. It is one however that I have come to cherish and greatly enjoy.
Has anyone else run into any specific issues while working and living abroad?
Cheers!
Spencer
