October 20, 2016 Thursday #computerscare#Abdominalcorset#advocate#1975Elite#womenincharge#don'tpresume.

Had to stay off internet till Aaron came and checked it for bugs.  I'm back!

Get Fit
Abdominal Corset:  While in a sitting or standing position, draw your stomach in by tightening in your stomach muscles.  Attempt to draw your waist away from your waist band all the way around.  If you are doing this right, your should feel taller - and be able to breathe.  Hold for a count of 10.  Repeat 5 times.  This is great for a morning stretch, at your desk, on an airplane, anywhere you need to feel refreshed.

Get Faith
John 14:15-21 vs 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever vs 17- the Spirit of truth.  We don't worship and speak of the Spirit as often as God and Jesus, maybe because It is still at work in us and that story hasn't been written yet.  

On this day
1974 I had picked up my brand new 1975 Ford Elite.  It was gorgeous - bronze with a landau top, cushy velvety seats.  This is the only brand new car I ever bought.  Of course, I had to take it over to show my brother Andy.  The car a mid size, fully loaded - top of the line was mine for 4,600.  Yep.  My house payment and car payment were both $180.00 a month.

1740 - Maria Theresa became the ruler of Austria, Hungary and Bohemia with the death of her father, Holy Roman Emperor Charles VI. Many countries have had women rulers, not necessary elected, more like inherited, but still.  Look at England.  As with anything, some good - some bad.  

Suriname

Decolonization[edit]

During World War II, on 23 November 1941, under an agreement with the Netherlands government-in-exile, the United States occupied Suriname to protect the bauxite mines to support the Allies war effort.[14] In 1942, the Dutch government-in-exile began to review the relations between the Netherlands and its colonies in terms of the post-war period.
In 1954, Suriname became one of the constituent countries of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, along with the Netherlands Antilles and theNetherlands. In this construction, the Netherlands retained control of its defense and foreign affairs. In 1974, the local government, led by the National Party of Suriname (NPS) (which membership was largely Creole, meaning ethnically African or mixed African-European) started negotiations with the Dutch government leading towards full independence, which was granted on 25 November 1975. A large part of Suriname's economy for the first decade following independence was fueled by foreign aid provided by the Dutch government.
 I suppose I thought they were less proper and civilized, I don't know why.  This picture shows a different story.  Doing this travel on the net has given me a much better knowledge of people around the world.

Enjoy the day!  Make it Memorable!  Happy Birthday to Aaron G.
