Art that shocks is not necessarily meant to shock, but I would say that the fundamental aim is to reveal the hidden, the silenced, the unseen, and the forgotten. Such an art speaks what should not spoken and exhibits what should be not shown, a daring choice of the artist who seeks to distress the ordinary, the common, and the mainstream with the different and the alternative.According to Michel F
Fall is all about change. School begins, the seasons change, crops are harvested. It's full of big and small changes for my family too.

It's now a toasty 68, and I'm snuggled under a few blankets. A bigger change came yesterday; I picked out Doogie'

Boundaries are essential to helping us identify who we are, what’s important to us and how we want to live our lives. Without them, other people will decide these things for us.

A lot of Poker players prefer to learn the ESPN-popularized no-limit holdem poker first before anything else. They prefer going all the way with their chips (and money, for that matter) without boundaries and with higher stakes. However, before the time of no limit holdem, it was the limit Holdem poker that hit the charts for poker gamers. This type of poker is played in most cash games and many
If you're not interested in becoming rich, then stop reading. It works at seminars so I thought I would include it in this article. What a pitch.

There are countless ingredients that make up the human body and mind, like all the components that make up me as an individual with my own personality. Sure I have a face and voice to distinguish myself from others, but my thoughts and memories are unique only to me, and I carry a sense of my own destiny. Each of those things are just a small part of it. I collect information to use in my own way.
First let it be said that I do love my In-Laws. I do NOT hate them. BUT, like with all people there are certain issues that I do have. For the most part the issues are minor and very easy to overlook. Other ones have long histories (like before me histories) that I’ve picked up [...]

When it comes to sexual boundaries, there is no effort too drastic and no endeavor too absurd for those of us seeking to live a life of holiness. There just isn't.

Sometimes innocently enough. But it

When I started my blog, I instated a few personal boundaries primarily because this is the internet. But those boundaries were simply that I would be me, but that I would never post anything that could potentially hurt feelings, be an embarrassment (outside of the normal fun) to anyone, or anything that would jeapordize relationships with people who I am involved with both personally and professionally.
I don’t have a fake name. I don’t have cutesy nicknames for my children. We’re an open book and I like that because it’s authentic. It’s real. I’m real. So is my life. So are my feelings, thoughts and emotions.
And I proudly share them with you.

Yesterday's corner time: 5 Minutes.At great expense, my parents have installed gates and railings around the perimeter of our property to prevent the frequent meanderings of Jake the Dog.It had consumed his entire weekend but Dad stood behind the gates proudly admiring his handiwork.And so it was with immense satisfaction that Dad closed and locked the gates for the first time, safe in the knowledge that he would no longer need to chase down the road in the slipstream of a flapping-eared Beagle.Therefore, you can probably imagine Dad’s disappointment when at the same time, Jake surveyed the same set of new gates but from the opposite side.Jake had escaped and it had taken him all of 3 seconds. Dad’s gates hadn’t even managed to slow him down.Jake was last seen catching the Number 32
Premiering next Tuesday, Yale senior Aliza Shvarts' art project is a shocking collection of video footage of forced miscarriages as well as samples of preserved blood, and has already ignited a fury of response from the art community and both sides of the abortion debate. Her work, consisting of a large cube wrapped in plastic sheeting, blood from the artifically-induced miscarriages, and vaseline, will display the recorded films of her miscarriages while suspended from the gallery ceiling. Revolting? Yes. Valid art? Only you can decide.The project is the cumulation of a nine-month long process, during which Shvarts inseminated herself and subsequently took abortion drugs multiple times to create the material needed for the ambitious project.Fellow students have denouced her project as "..

At sixteen years old, remains half an hour past his curfew.No matter what age your children are, that the limits set for them are required to be tested. As a parent, the reasons for these restrictions are evident. You do not want your child to touch a wall socket, as it might hurt. You prohibit its ten years of age to leave the district because of the street that lies beyond. You want your sixteen years of the home at a certain time of night because of the dangers.Despite its protestations to the contrary, do not set limits because we are ogres and do not want our children to have fun.

Let’s talk about boundaries. Every woman should set her own boundaries as to what is acceptable to her in a relationship. Now, that isn’t to say that you shouldn’t explore and perhaps expand those boundaries in the future. Boundaries can be useful to make sure that you don’t get sucked into a relationship that you are not happy with - a relationship that you are so attached and dependent on, that you are willing to put up with things that make you unhappy.
I suggest making a list of things that you absolutely would not accept in a relationship and let your partner know this. You can’t expect him to know what your boundaries are unless you reveal them to him clearly through your words or actions.
For example, here are two common boundaries in relationships:
- I will not accept physical or emotional infidelity.
- I will not put up with physical or emotional abuse.
Now, sitting down with your partner and handing him a list may work…but I bet you can fi

If you use the School Locator on my website, you’ll only get part of the story.
Today’s school assignments may or may not be an accurate reflection of which Crofton-area school your child will attend in 2008–2009. With construction of a new elementary school on Nantucket Road (now referred to as Gambrills Elementary, although the school is located in Crofton), you can expect to see shuffling in some school boundaries next year.
Redistricting is a lengthy process that takes into account many factors including overcrowding in existing schools, neighborhood boundaries, and assignments for middle and high schools. While a final decision will not be made until Spring, a Redistricting Committee of parents with children in the affected schools voted earlier this week to approve this plan for recommendation to the School Superintendent:
Children who live on the east side of Route 3 that now attend Four Seasons Elementary will shift to the new school.

Many of us have experienced difficult relationships with someone or with several people who have been addicted to alcohol, drugs, gambling, or some other unhealthy pursuit. How might we deal with these difficult relationships, recognize them early, and prevent such relationships in the future?
My own dear mother was unfortunately alcoholic. One day I realized something vitally important:
Just because you love someone, doesnt mean it is healthy to be near them.
It is tremendously useful in life to learn to separate your feelings for someone, with your understanding of what is, or is not, healthy for you to be around. We need both love (or at least like) and a healthy dynamics for a relationship to continue. If both are not present, then the relationship can make you terribly unhappy, or even destroy your health, confidence, and safety.
Ironically, it is also better for them also, to separate if they will not work on controlling their addiction
By: Katheryn HobanBut with anything that you are learning and developing you need to do develop your psychic with balance, and caution. You must put a general statement to the universe of what you would like to handle. You set boundaries for what you can and can't take in. You clearly define the boundaries of contact. You need to remember that at all times you are the one in control and you can stop contact at any time. You shut down your receiver and stop transmitting at will. You need to become aware of when you are physically drained, and vulnerable, and when you are stronger. You must also become aware of how to ground yourself, when you need to put up a psychic shield or a wall and how to do this. You must firmly respect your own space and others. No one has the right to control you or bring you under his or her will. You don't have the right to do that to anyone else either. Also only what you allow to take place can take place. If you don't invite or allow contact, contact wo
"When you live a life with no boundaries, there's less joy." -Tom Hanks, American Movie Star, Tom Hanks books//
Boundaries are a good thing. Adults need boundaries as much as kids do. Kids need adults to ensure that they live within the boundaries set for them, whereas adults are supposed to 'police' themselves. It's hard to say NO to yourself, especially when it comes to food, alcohol, tobacco or other temptations. We all have feelings of invincibility, which are always crushed later when we look in the mirror or have trouble getting out of bed the next morning. Hanks correctly points out that we often sacrifice long term happiness for short-term satisfaction. Obesity, alcoholism, lung...

Statistics say about 40 million Americans move out of their homes and in to new cities every year. Industry demands mobility of labor; and of course Americans never fall short. So, an average American changes home about five or six times in their lifetime. Apart from career opportunities, paucity of space in cities, and also the general American way of life contribute majorly to the huge moving p
I heard someone say "sanity equals limits and boundaries" many years ago and the concept has stuck with me ever since. There are a lot of useful ways to apply this philosophy to daily life.To clarify, I use the word "limits" to apply to the self and "boundaries" to apply to others. For example, if I set a time to go to bed at night so that I don't stay up too late, that's a limit. If my family doesn't answer the telephone during dinner, that's boundary. Limits help us define our own behavior while boundaries are a reaction to the behavior of others. In short, your boundary is where others end and you begin, while your limit is where you stop yourself. One is measured outwardly and the other internally.How is it true that "sanity equals limits and boundaries"? If the opposite of "sanity" is "insanity" or, more generically poor mental or emotional health, then think of any psychiatric or emotional disturbance. Depression is sadness without limits, psychosis is fantasy withou

There is a tremble of hope every time I approach you. Fear of being seen. Fear of being unseen. Fear of losing myself somewhere in the sight.
You look my way and I boldly cower before you. A single word reaches out to you. For just a moment you think you know. I slowly reel it back before you grasp your own thoughts.
I am disappointed. I am relieved. I am safe.
I have hidden my smile from you. Lest it seem too familiar. I have closed my eyes to you. Lest you see my soul. I hold myself back. Lest I touch you. What have I left for you to see? To feel? To know?
I am safe. Solitarily safe.

Today there is an article in Vogue.uk about Carolina Soler-Avila, Vivienne Westwood's summer intern. Though I would give anything to even meet Vivienne Westwood, much less be her intern, I was more inspired by the fact Carolina has a degree in physics.Things like this always inspire me because they show I'm not crazy for deciding I wanted to pursue a career in fashion after only a semester as a bio major. She explains her change in careers in two ways. She says she needed "needed a more creative outlet for [her] talent", and that "fashion is perfect [for her] because these days it incorporates a lot of science and technology."Both of her reasons are much more eloquent than my "If I spend 90% of bio class reading fashion magazines and thinking up cute outfits, a change is definitely needed."Needles to say, I hope Carolina's career as a designer gets a bit of a kick-start from working with Vivienne, and I'll practice not freezing up if I ever meet Ms. Westwood![via Vogue.uk]
I got a letter from Etrade today about completing my details for my online savings account. One of the things I noticed is that they didn’t include the enclosed envelope for us to mail the paperwork back.
These days, companies are finding more and more ways to save money. The simple idea I mentioned might be able to save Etrade tens of thousands of dollars since they don’t have to provide the postage fees.
Although corporations are looking for ways to save money, not all of us are. For most of us, our money leaks like the extra coffee we buy, that extra large fries that we really couldn’t finish, or paying extra for that electronic gadget we wanted because we were too lazy to find a good deal online really waste much of our money.
It’s actually quite hard to not waste money when there are no rules to go by. This is especially difficult when the amount we often slurge on is small. It would make things much easier however if you limit our boundaries.

As a young child, I roamed my neighborhood in my small town daily with my best friend. We spent many of the warm days of the year outside for much of the time.I remember the old woman across the street. She never said anything to us - just shot us dirty looks when we walked by her section of the sidewalk. We thought she was a "witch", and as the sun would go down each evening, her dark outline was visible through her front window, slowly rocking in her rocking chair.Knowing she was watching, the temptation to perform for her was too much. I can't even imagine what she was thinking as two young girls would occasionally go dancing by her window down the sidewalk, doing our best Michigan J. Frog impression and acting as goofy as we could. Who knows, maybe she got a good laugh out of it?Looking back, I think she was just waiting for one of these energetic seven year olds to step foot off the sidewalk into her yard, putting her flower beds at risk, so she could do more than scowl at us and

I peeked at some definitions of democracy just to see if I could get a basic understanding of what it meant. I’ve grown up thinking that we live in a democracy mainly because we get to vote for our president (and other folks as well). I think that’s a good thing, I like the idea of a government put in place by the people it governs.
Yet, recently I’ve been thinking about the fact that our tendency to think of our country as a democracy governed within some arbitrary boundaries that make up 50 different states is maybe not the most accurate. My thought is that it might be more accurate to think of the boundaries of our government and system as outlined not by the areas that our politicians govern, but were our military exerts it’s power. You see, ultimately I’m not ruled by the politicians (they make laws), I’m kept in line by the powers that enforce those rules, namely the military (and on our local level the police). So, it would seem that if we a

שמע ישראל יי אלהינו יי אחדIn Aramaic, א is a feminine ending, where גמרות is the well-known feminine plural of Aramaic גמרא. The Hebrew root גמר , from which the Hebrew letter-equivalent to the Aramaic word גמרא is derived, implies "end", "conclusion" and "ceasing to exist". In other words, גמר refers to a "boundary of the universe". Likewise, גמרות pertains to all boundaries of the universe (Sefer Yetzirah 5:2), from א to ת. Consequently, the Aramaic word constructs גמרות - גמרא pertain to the feminine experience (one of many unified attributes, ברוך שם כבוד מלכותו לעולם ועד) of going to and beyond the boundaries of the universe into the Infinite One. (This "unified end of ends" I've experienced is described in this poem where all ends cross over into the Infinite One.)Tradition tells us את comes to add, and תא comes to receive it. Similarly to the word גמרא, in Aramaic אתתא means woman. I'
Another integral part of becoming the change is making sure you keep your boundaries defined. This one trips up a lot of people! You have to decide for yourself what is acceptable behavior and were your own personal boundaries are and then you have to defend your boundaries by not allowing others to get away with stepping over them. This is a very important step because otherwise you allow people to overstep those boundaries and walk all over you. Once someone is walking over you. You lose self respect. Self respect is a crucial element in becoming the change!We all have weak spots in our boundaries. Examine your past to discover where your own weak spots are. Perhaps they are with the opposite sex. Perhaps you allow them to get away with too much once you're in a relationship. Perhaps it's with friends. Perhaps you over extend yourself, finding it too difficult to say, no. Or Perhaps it's with your children who you just can't seem to lay down the law with. Where ever your weak sp
