Forgive me while I take just a moment to blow my own horn (hey, I don’t get that many opportunities to do so, so better make the most of it) ;-) :
I passed my course, and so gained admittance to first year degree studies at the University of Toronto. The better news is, I passed with a 77% (B+) - (not bad for having messed up on the final exam), and in doing so, achieved the opportunity to attend full time, should I so choose. (You had to achieve 73% or better to be able to do so).
I actually got the good news while standing on the steep and ancient streets of Riomaggiore, Italy - while walking back to our hotel after dinner, we found a wi-fi spot and I was able to log onto the U of T website using my iPhone. Ain't technology grand? ;-)
Anyway - it was a tough go, but I'm rather proud of myself that I went the distance with this...better late than never (although I certainly wasn't the oldest one to graduate this program - last night at our info session, there was a 67-year-old who was all set to start first- year degree studies in the fall!) Now the mindboggling task of choosing courses for next year!
If you're one of those people, like I was, who thinks the possiblity of university has passed them by, I would highly recommend the Academic Bridging Program at U of T. Be warned though - it is no cakewalk, or "easy" way in to the school - on the contrary, students who take this course have to give blood, sweat and tears - you're not only being taught a subject at what is probably second year university level, but you're simultaneously being taught how to be a university student (learning the fine art of essay writing, for example). By all accounts, however, those who graduate this course (and receive one full credit for doing so, as well as admittance to the university), go on to achieve higher marks than someone admitted in the traditional manner. All in all, it was a great experience. :)
more often than not, the path ahead may be uncertain ..... though one may proceed one step at a time or another may rush ahead regardless.
I am still waiting on the answers, they seem to be coming in very tiny stages much like the blossoms of this little orchid. This is one of the smallest orchids that blooms. This bloom would only measure about a centimeter at the longest point.
24 June 14. It would be hard to pick a worse time to move house: WH not well and visitors coming. We never thought it would take so long when we started the process. I took the mirror to the local auction house. The lamp is really our son's and will go to his house. The settee is sadly destined for the tip - no fire tags.

You believe and you doubt
You're confused, you got it all figured out
Everything that you always wished for
Could be yours, should be yours, would be yours
When you can't wait any longer
But there's no end in sight
when you need to find the strength
It's your faith that makes you stronger
The only way you get there
Is one step at a time

Calvary Cemetery, a Roman Catholic cemetery in Cincinnati, Ohio, contained 13 acres of ground. It was opened in 1865 by the Catholic Calvary Cemetery Association, consisting of members of St. Francis De Sales Church. The first burial was that of an infant, Catherina Hoffstedde, in 1865.

Rock climbing is one of the best adventure activity.Thrillophilia provides adventure activities and team building games for corporates.
I was pondering yesterday's journal pages and the underlying theme that most of my journals have had to them (finding a more fulfilling career, more time for art/creativity) and one of my favourite quotes popped into my head ("Take the first step in faith. You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step." Martin Luther Kind Jr.) and I was reminded that every journey starts with one step. I grabbed my versa mark stamp pad and inked up my entire left foot and stepped right onto my journal page. I covered the whole page with gold embossing powder and heated it up. I painted around my foot with blue acrylic paint, added the quote and my personal message down at the bottom. Very simple, very profound, very groovy! This is also the last page in my journal. Tomorrow I get to move on to a brand new journal!!! How exciting is that???
I believe this is a grandson and father giving their grandfather and father (respectively) a helping hand down the street.
Something about this scene really moved me. It reminded me of what family is really about.
I felt compassion for the grandfather as walking seemed to be a bit of a struggle for him, but in the end he was in good hands. This scene was a reminder to me that although I seldom see it anymore, there is a little hope for humanity yet.

The Great Egret also known as Common Egret, Large Egret or Great White Heron, is a large, widely distributed egret. Distributed across most of the tropical and warmer temperate regions of the world, in southern Europe it is rather localized. In North America it is more widely distributed, and it is ubiquitous across the Sun Belt of the United States and in the Neotropics. The Old World population is often referred to as the Great White Egret. This species is sometimes confused with the Great White Heron of the Caribbean which is a white morph of the closely related Great Blue Heron.
The Great Egret is a large heron with all-white plumage. Standing up to 3.3 ft tall it is only slightly smaller than the Great Blue or Grey Heron. Apart from size, the Great Egret can be distinguished from other white egrets by its yellow bill and black legs and feet, though the bill may become darker and the lower legs lighter in the breeding season. In breeding plumage, delicate ornamental feathers are borne on the back. Males and females are identical in appearance; juveniles look like non-breeding adults. It has a slow flight, with its neck retracted. This is characteristic of herons and bitterns and distinguishes them from storks, cranes, ibises and spoonbills, which extend their necks in flight.
The Great Egret is generally a very successful species with a large and expanding range. In North America large numbers of Great Egrets were killed around the end of the 19th century so that their plumes could be used to decorate hats. Numbers have since recovered as a result of conservation measures. Its range has expanded as far north as southern Canada. However, in some parts of the southern United States its numbers have declined due to habitat loss. Nevertheless, it adapts well to human habitation and can be readily seen near wetlands and bodies of water in urban and suburban areas. In 1953, the Great Egret in flight was chosen as the symbol of the National Audubon Society which was formed in part to prevent the killing of birds for their feathers ~ Great Egret ~ Florida Wetlands
"You wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kind of impatient waiting"

Inger www.flickr.com/photos/ingermaaike2/5011912083/ took me on so many gorgeous walks. On average, we walked about 2 hours a day. She was patient with me as I sometimes rested as we walked up steep hills. When the hiking got tough, I kept in mind that all I needed to do was "take one step at a time". That is a great mantra for living life!

A distinct oddity in the Clone discography - the lone single by Akron tunesmith John Rader! For our money the most interesting stuff to come from any underground scene are the acts or artists who are influenced by another bigger underground act. The Index is the poor mans Byrds or The Clap is the B-team Rolling Stones etc - to our ears Raders clearly coming from a pre-new wave / power pop background mining the sonic territory excavated by folks like The Raspberries or The Scruffs and even Milk n Cookies or The Quick but without the sophistication of any of those groups. We dont mean that as a slam just that a top-notch producer or studio time may have not been in the budget but therein lies the charm of a release like this. A guy from Akron trying his best to sound like Eric Carmen and failing in the most glorious and awesome way imaginable! The A-side One Step At A Time is the soft-rockin ballad while the flip Get You Back kicks out the jams on the punkier side of New Wave. Presented in a sweet 2-color silkscreened sleeve with a pic showing the sensitive side of Rader posing on the front. Did we mention that this is OG deadstock from the Seventies? Grab this while the gettins good - this is definitely coming soon to a powerpop comp near you! From Permanent Records. ---A side - A very strange wave ballad. B side is ok - A kind of midtempo Power Pop - from Akron/Ohio.-WiKi
