This surrender card is more about the surrender to one's talent, and to one's need to reinvent oneself, than it is about the surrender to God (as in the Sufi Dervish card) -- but perhaps these are not different?

01-This is the front of the Karlshorst Berlin May 8th 1945 Surrender building. The sign at the gate says that the Russian-German Museum is closed due to renovations. Notice the T-34 tank at the left side of the building.
Midafternoon after the snowstorm, a few strollers were about, along with some people scraping their windshields clean. Sidewalks were clear on Germantown Avenue but spottily elsewhere. Outside Kilian's Hardware was standard fare: a snowblower, shovels, sleds and firewood. Kids and teens seemed to be out in the most numbers, But the most action, and there wasn't as much as usual given the 22 degree temperature was at the Water Tower Recreation Center where families gathered with their sleds, inflatables and snowboards for rides down the wavy hill. It was gleeful. Dan Taylor was taking movies of his daughter Camille and her friend Mariana from Columbia, students at Masterman, as Mariana experienced sledding (and slipping off) for the first time.

Gli Hurts, il duo synthpop proveniente da Manchester, a due anni di distanza dall’ultima data italiana, arrivano, per un unico, imperdibile, show fissato per il 23 febbraio all’Alcatraz di Milano, tappa italiana del loro Surrender Tour.
Theo Hutchcraft e Adam Anderson, dopo un lunghissimo tour costellato da successi, quasi 3 milioni di singoli venduti e svariate certificazioni oro e platino, sono tornati in studio per registrare il terzo album, Surrender.
Rispetto ai lavori precedenti, il terzo disco avrà sonorità più pop ed esplosive, tuttavia non mancheranno le atmosfere cupe ed introspettive tipiche del duo.
Stuart Price (Madonna, The Killers), Ariel Rechtshaid (Haim, Vampire Weekend), insieme al fedele Jonas Quant figurano tra i produttori di Surrender, che è stato anticipato dall’esplosivo singolo Some Kind Of Heaven.
Dopo l’acclamato concerto alla Scala di Londra, la critica ed il pubblico concordano: gli Hurts sono pronti a conquistare il mondo.
My Mind Control.
I-I-I-I'm an alien from outer space (outer space)
I'm a cybergirl without a face, a heart, or a mind
(I'm a product of metal x2, I'm a product of the man)
See see see see see, I'm a slave girl without a race (without a face)
On the run cause they're here to erase and chase my kind
(They've come to destroy me x3)
And I think to myself

Wait, it's impossible
Now they're gunning for me (and the Pawn is after you)
And now they're after you (For loving, too)
And all the sirens go dooodooo

Ohhh baby! Ooh, you know the rules
I love you and I won't take no for an answer
They say that Violet Stars will set you free (set you free)
When you're running lost and alone (Follow them down)
Up Neon Valley streets (up Neon Valley streets)
A pretty day makes a pretty picture (pretty picture)
But fall in love and they're coming to getcha
Who knew 10 men with guns were at the door (at the door)
The droid control?! (the Droid Control... The Droid CONTROL!?!!)
(Impossibly, they're gunning for me)
Wait, that's impossible that they're gunning for me (and now the Pawn is after you)
And now they're after you (for loving, too)

Surrendered to the ER vet for euthanasia at 18 months of age because of a prolapsed uterus, Bebe was in trouble. The Er vet took one look at her sad face and called Legacy Boxer Rescue to see if we could help. We are trying, Bebe. Please help us help Bebe. www.savetheboxers.com.
She had her surgery consultation this morning (Feb 25, 2010). She is critically anemic. She will get a transfusion to get her red count up, and they hope to have her in surgery by this afternoon. The estimated cost for the procedure is $1,800-2,000.
Both the transfusion and the surgery are high risk so she needs everyone's moral support right now!
Update - 2/25 6pm - It was touch and go, but Bebe made it thru surgery and is stable!! She could still take a turn, but they got the bleeding stopped and she is starting to "pink up" again. (pink gums, pink tongue - it means her heart function is good and her blood is flowing good)
They think that she was pregnant and that at some point early on, the puppies died. Then her body had complications reabsorbing them, and then tried to proceed like a live birth.....that's when things went very wrong.
We are hoping that she can stay stable on her own and avoid another blood transfusion.
Final Update 2/26/10
We got a call from the surgeon late last night.
Bebe was doing great when out of the blue she had a grand mal seizure and they were unable to resuscitate her. The surgery center shares the same space as the emergency clinic, so she had round the clock care.
The vet said that when he left at 5:30 she was alert and trying her best to figure out how to get past the cone to lick her incision. He has no idea what could have happened. He was devastated because he thought we had pulled her thru.
Bebe is now running happy with our beloved babies at the bridge. Although she could not stay with us, she knows we tried and she will always be one of our own.
Thank you all for being there for her.

On April 9, 1865, Confederate General Robert E. Lee (right) surrendered to Union General Ulysses S. Grant (left), effectively ending the American Civil War. This tableau at the National Presidential Wax Museum in Keystone, South Dakota depicts the event, which took place at a courthouse at Appomattox, Virginia.

Unconditional Surrender is a series of sculptures by Seward Johnson resembling a photograph by Alfred Eisenstaedt, V–J day in Times Square, but said by Johnson to be based on a similar, less well known, photograph by Victor Jorgensen.

Very cool surprise to see this while walking down the street.
//10
//fifty-two weeks of design
This week's design is inspired by a message I heard from mister Cole NeSmith. The guy's a beast. There's no doubt God's doing crazy awesome things through him. Check out his wonderful thoughts.
On Sunday, he shared with us a few thoughts about conforming Jesus to my selfish image, versus conforming myself to the image of Jesus. I distinctly remember, though, him speaking about surrender — how things don't start working until I let go of my desires and the things I do for my gain.
Now, this surrender isn't the giving up type of surrender. It's not the failure type of surrender that means you've lost it all, either. No, this surrender goes beyond that; it's when you begin to let go of the things you have for something, or someone, that's bigger than what your thoughts could ever conceive. Because it is when we don't surrender, we truly fail, because the burdens of this Earth are too heavy for our shoulders to bare.
Sometimes we try, and try to do something our way, and as much as we can try, as small as the task may be, it doesn't always work out. And we get frustrated when that happens. But I think it all begins with surrender, because it's when you surrender these things that God's massive plan starts making sense in our lives.

Divorce.
His throat closed up even thinking the word. He was twenty-eight years old and had conquered the universe or thought he had.
No! He had.
Then his picture perfect world had shattered with one single word.
Divorce.
He’d been respectable, always treating women with admiration. He hadn’t jumped into marriage at twenty-one, but dated the same woman for three years, cherished her, gave her everything. He thought he’d found perfection, but he was disillusioned.
Raffaello Palazzo sat straight up, his eyes narrowed.
No! He wasn’t this man.
He wouldn’t grovel.
“Goodbye.”
He barely glanced up as Sharron walked past, her five-thousand dollar purse slung over her shoulder, flaunting the smirk on her face as she slammed the door in all its finality.
A few of herplaints against him were that he worked too much and didn’t give her the attention she thought she deserved. With the simple slamming of a door, she was gone.
He was grateful she was. When he’d walked in the week before, carrying roses, attempting to give her more attention, he’d seen that she wasn’t choosy about where her attention came from. She’d been in bed with his business partner.
Rafe’s eyes closed as he momentarily pictured that moment;
“Are you cutting out on us?”
“It’s my anniversary. My wife’s favorite flower is the Hawaiian Flora. I had them express delivered to the floral shop and I’m picking up her bouquet, then taking her on a surprise trip to Paris where we celebrated our honeymoon.”
“You’re the most whipped man I know, Rafe,” his assistant, Mario, said with a smile.
“I’m half Italian. My father taught...
