The One Who Waits for Me by Lori Copeland



Lori Copeland is a Christian romance author. Even though I'm sort of a mystic/metaphysical agnostic, I don't mind stories with religious overtones as long as they aren't too heavy-handed. This novel, while written by someone for whom religion is a major aspect of her life, is more focused on the story than on attempting to make others believe as the writer does. The author develops her characters with love for each of them, and has created a beautifully written historical romance. 
If you enjoy romance novels, particularly historical romance, and won't be disappointed if the story doesn't have any explicit sex scenes, you might enjoy Ms. Copeland's works.

KHEL 666 Information: Biology of the Human Eye


I wanted to post a response to Tempest's video share about how to perform a physical exam. I found this video describing the structure of the eye in lay-person's terms. It contains a lot of pretty imagery.
The comments suggestion makes me fear for the state of humanity. How does a discussion of video about the structure of the eye devolve into some sort of verbal holy war?
Never mind, here are The Doors to make it all better.

Theme Thursday: Hair

Some people don't approve of Lady Gaga because she does outrageous things sometimes. But here, she does something really nice for a fellow who lost his best friend to cancer. She's a good person at heart. We all need to cut each other a little slack before we judge.

This is a response to a Theme Thursday prompt.

Hair (Lady Gaga)

Whenever I'm dressed cool my parents put up a fight
And if I'm hot shot, mom will cut my hair at night
And in the morning I'm short of my identity
I scream, "Mom and dad, why can't I be who I wanna be, to be?"

I just wanna be myself and I want you to love
Me for who I am
I just wanna be myself and I want you to know
I am my hair

I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair

I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I just keep fightin' to stay cool on the streets
I've had enough, enough, enough
And this is my prayer, I swear

I'm as free as my hair
I'm as free as my hair
I am my hair
I am my hair

Free as my hai-ai-air
Hai-ai-air, hair
Free as my hai-ai-air
Hai-ai-air, hai-ai-air

Sometimes I want some raccoon or red highlights
Just because I want my friends to think I'm dynamite
And on Friday, Rock City High School dance
I've got my bangs to hide that I don't stand a chance, a chance

I just wanna be myself and I want you to love
Me for who I am
I just wanna be myself and I want you to know
I am my hair

I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair

I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I just keep fightin' to stay cool on the streets
I've had enough, enough, enough
And this is my prayer, I swear

I'm as free as my hair
I'm as free as my hair
I am my hair
I am my hair

Free as my hai-ai-air
Hai-ai-air, hair
Free as my hai-ai-air
Hai-ai-air, hai-ai-airr

I just want to be free, I just want to be me
And I want lots of friends that invite me to their parties
Don't want to change and I don't want to be ashamed
I'm the spirit of my hair, it's all the glory that I bear

I'm my hair, I am my hair
I'm my hair, I am my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair, I am my hair
It's all the glory that I bear

I'm my hair, I am my hair
It's all the glory that I bear
I'm my hair, I am my hair
I'm my hair, yeah, yeah

It's all the glory that I bear
I'm my hair, yeah, yeah
It's all the glory that I bear
I'm my hair, yeah, yeah
It's all the glory that I bear
I'm my hair, yeah, yeah

I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair
I've had enough, this is my prayer
That I'll die livin' just as free as my hair

I've had enough, I'm not a freak
I just keep fightin' to stay cool on the streets
I've had enough, enough, enough
And this is my prayer, I swear

I'm as free as my hair
I'm as free as my hair
I am my hair, I am my hair
Ooh, I'm my hair, I'm my hair

Full Physical Exam Guide

As a nurse who got my license three years ago but is still working as an aide (sigh) I like to brush up on the stuff that I learned in school but really haven't had a chance to use in practice. This one was made for doctors, but it isn't significantly different than the one for nurses. If you are a medical professional of any kind, you may find this useful.

Candlemass: The Curse of Candlemass


I featured this video in a post at Encyclopedia Netherworld and figured I'd best share it here too, or there would be hell to pay!
