Today is one of those busy weekends when everyone has something planned (except for me, hah!) Safa left home before 7:30am for day two of a debate tournament in another high school in the area. Last night it was after 10:30pm when she got home. Hopefully today she will be back during daylight hours. She likes to stay with her friends to watch the awards, regardless if she qualifies for quarter or semi-finals.And Hamza was at his school by 7:30 too. Zakir dropped him off for the State high school math tou... read more »
Wer auf der Myspace-Seite von Dean Allen Foyd aus Stockholm die Biographie aufruft, lernt die Geschichte des (angeblich) bedeutendsten Blues-Gitarristen der 2. Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts kennen, um dann aber doch recht schnell zu merken, dass diese nur eine Legende ist. Eine offensichtliche (aber auch definitiv sehr nette) Erfindung des schwedischen Psychedelisch-Blues-Rock-Quartetts, die durchaus wahr sein könnte.

From left to right is the raised flood-bank along Cedar Creek - a tranquil walk It has come to my attention, that I have to say a very big thank you to my friends - those folks out there in the 'interwebs', who have taken the time out of there busy lives to visit my blog - read my 'ranting' sometimes 'random' posts, but thinking about my story enough to stop and leave their comments. It really makes a massive, positive difference to me! So, thank you folks; +Priscilla Hedlin+Kevin Weilacher+thillai r... read more »
I just finished watching Cloud Atlas, and I had to write something about it but for some reason I am at a loss for words. Which is just odd, but I will try to review this movie. I was going to watch it a week ago but it looked like it was just another flick, Continue reading read more »
This young man spends more time in the back yard with our pup than anyone else. And sadly, that's not a lot. But where Bilal whines and says, "Will someone come outside and play with me?" Hamza will just go and hang out with Atlas. He doesn't care if anyone else is around. He generates a kind of nervous energy in the dog. They roughhouse together, roll around, get covered with leaves, and eventually Atlas will end up on the ground, totally pooped, begging for a tummy rub.Yesterday I took the camera out f... read more »
Atlas got a thorough blow out this morning. Didn't seem to mind it at all! There was dust and fur flying everywhere! read more »
Cinema is a medium like no other. Sensorial, dream-like, moving vision of imagination, fiction and superlative forms of replicating life. Films have and will explore all areas of the human experience, and those that come from our wildest thoughts and fictional universes. In itself, the art form is already ambitious. It speaks to the most instantaneous of experiences, what we see and hear in the moment, which tells us a story, or evokes a feeling we have lived. Its mass appeal makes it popular, and yet fu... read more »

This week I have homework along with Bilal. He, if course, has some reading to do and some spelling words to learn (he pretty much learns them during the week in school, actually), but it is his turn to be 'Favorite Fish' in class. Each student rotates in that role. Today I sent in some photos for him to share with the class. They will be on display for the week. And tomorrow he is taking in a favorite book to share. His choice is 'Pie in the Sky'. We both have great memories of reading that book togethe... read more »
