I've been feeling a bit disconnected from the kids since they started school. Hubby has been doing more of the drop-offs and pick-ups since we moved, and as a result I have to interrogate the children if I want to get a sense of what they've done that day. Bub's report is always the same: he played with a new boy who had a red shirt. I'm not sure whether this is a default response, or whether

This is one of my favorite songs of the moment. It's beautiful, and Adele's voice is so rich and textured. She's been compared to Amy Winehouse, but I think she is 10 times better.

Hometown, or kampung, is a city or town in which someone was born in or grew up in. It is also the place of someone's origin.Among fellow Malaysian, people tends to ask "Where is your hometown?" or "Where are you from?" during the first get-to-know session. In fact, this is a good way to bring up a conversation, as well as getting to know more about your friend. For me, however, hometown is co

We all remember Cathy Freeman winning the 400 meters in front of her home country at the 2000 Sydney Olympics. Prior to the start of the 400 meter rounds, she took part and lit the Olympic flame at the Opening ceremonies. I have to admit, this was the most stunning flame lighting spectacle to date, next to the paraolympian Archer who lit the flame in Barcelona 1992. There was the much ballyhooed hype with Konstantinos Kenteris who won the 200 meters at the same Olympics when Michael Johnson and Maurice Green both failed to make the finals at their respective USATF Trials. His chance to repeat as the 200 meter winner in front of his hometown Greece in 2004 never materialized for reasons still under investigation, and I was 100% certain he would be the one to light the flame. POP QUIZ: Who lit the torch at these games? In 2001, Kenteris proved he was no fluke by winning the 200 meters at the 2001 World Championships in Edmonton. Recent news from www.chinadaily.com.cn claims the

This from the Boston Globe:Innovative in-house programs help temper spiraling expensesSome Lexington (MA) students with disabilities used to ride in vans for as much as two hours every day to attend specialized schools in distant communities. This year, the 47 middle school and high school students go to classes in their hometown.The result: The students have more time for learning, friends, family, play, and sleep. But perhaps as impressive - at least from the number-crunchers' point of view - the move has helped lop almost $1 million off the municipal budget."There is a strong financial benefit to create in-house capacity," Lexington Superintendent of Schools Paul Ash said.So far, the changes in Lexington have won approval from the local Special Education Parent Advisory Council, the key organization looking out for the rights of parents of children with special needs."We really do want as many kids as possible to be educated in their home schools," said Dale Hernquist, council coch

Last 2 weeks, I was doing the study on the feasibility of making a wiki and didn’t write any blog. I was in the progress of making a wiki for backpack traveller. This wiki will gather the information of the small towns all over the world. I know that I could not complete this project by myself, therefore, I hope that you can contribute some tourist guide and write it in the wiki for our friends (backpack travellers) from oversea. By writing the page about your hometown, you are actually helping a lot of backpack travellers to solve their problem in accommodation and transport. You help them to avoid from losing their way. As a rewards to the contributor, the writer is allowed to put the banner for local tourist agency to earn some money in advertising.

Some time ago one of my friends passed on a little information to me about a little town in Pennsylvania named Hometown. Given the name of my trip I couldn’t believe it. C’mon, I couldn’t go to all 50 states on the Hometown Invasion Tour without stopping in Hometown, PA. For a while I didn’t think I was going to make it to Hometown because of my dates and locations. Plans change for the good all the time. Take a side trip to State College for the weekend while coming from Erieville and boom, you’re just 20 miles from Hometown off the interstate. Erieville is a small town, no more than 1,500 people. I’m thinking it would compare to my hometown of Baraga or maybe Justin, TX. I was anxious to find a welcome sign, big or small, where I could take a photo of myself and the Compass in front of it. Sadly, no such sign existed. I even asked a police officer and surely he would know. Supposedly there are no t-shirts are anything. Somebody could be sitting on a gold mine, th

The 14 participating Springfields were: Massachusetts, Missouri, Illinois, Ohio, Oregon, Tennessee, New Jersey, Florida, Michigan, Kentucky, Nebraska, Colorado, Louisiana and Vermont. Each participating Springfield submitted a film three to five minutes in length to showcase its Simpson spirit.___________________________Sent by Adam Fendelman via the free Email Scheduler service.Register now at http://www.emailschedule.com

What an amazing thing it is to return to your hometown after many years. If you can embrace the good and the bad memories, you can learn a lot about yourself. I have always thought a place is like a person. It has a personality. It has a sense..a sound...a feel...a smell..It grows and changes. You can feel comforted by it or repelled. You can get along famously or not. I was blessed this weekend with having the opportunity to catch up with my old friend Cleveland. Her streets were arms which wrapped around me in a knowing embrace. I learned of the successes I had missed, her growth. I also learned that many aspects of her are the same....so many of my favorite old haunts are still there. She is a reflection of me. I have grown and changed so much since I left her...but my heart remains. We reminisced over a few glasses of wine. She's quit smoking. She's put on some weight. But I think she looks great..... And now I know that she will always be there for me.....even if we go a long ti

This from the Herald-Leader.Hey, you know what would be sweeter than a plateful of doughnuts (Mmmm ... doughnuts!) to the folks in Springfield, Ky.? More intoxicating than a truckload of Duff beer?

On Monday, June 18, Charleston firefighters were called to the scene of a major blaze. A fire apparently started in the trash bin of a furniture store. The blaze quickly advanced inside the store. Firefighters went into the store to rescue four people. Unfortunately, nine firefighters were lost that night when the roof collapsed on them. This tragedy has touched all of us here in the US, especially in my city which has not lost a firefighter in the line of duty since 1965.

Please keep the families of these men in your prayers, as well as all firefighters since they are all brothers. Photo: Photo courtesy of the Charleston Post and Courier Envie essa dica
