Oh boy, I have had my first contact-introduction to an HIV positive person...wut is the chance of this illness being spread by saliva....I.E... on sharing a smoke, or with the urine on the toilet, cleaning the tub, towels, etc. eating, and dishwashing --- bedding???

Being a person experienced with isolation procedures and being very familiar due to my past CNA experience and hospital nurse aide work a few decades ago....guess that dates me, huh?

I, for one, am very familiar with the isolation techniques...gown, gloves, 1: 10 solution of clorox and water for 'spills' as will that work on the tub, toilet??? Assuming so, it is fear itself that causes panic. So, not wishing to panic as this is quite accomplished in the past, has a neat sense of humor, a love for music....and yeah, very sexually active...wutta price to pay for it. Young uns beware who you are sleeping with!

So, when one is into the confidentiality thing seriously, what is that persons responsibility to having sex with another person and not telling them you are infected???? Is there a responsibility? I am shocked to think so... What responsibility and discretion is there in the business of confidentiality and responsibility to isolating the disease to oneself ? How much trouble can one be sued for breaking that confidentiality, say to a potential partner, -'hey wait, be careful who you are with cause [he's] HIV positive...girlie"

Living in a homeless shelter situation, what is the danger to other residents on the sharing business, I.E. dishes, cups, silverware....or is this just a disease and/or illness spread only by sexual contact, such as kissing, the saliva thing? Do you need direct contact with the male semon or vaginal orifice, secretions, etc???? And is sneezing or coughing a thing to be aware of: i.e. sitting next to a coughing person on the bus, i.e.: as whooping cough, or Hep C or mandatory T.B. testing as the missions require?

I really would like to know.

Aids clinics are specific with their solutions: re: providing condems,

oral protection, etc. right down to the needles...along with nutrition specific

supplement & plans for life, including and giving out free passes for public transportation...does the public need to be in a panic?

Is it okaye for this person to have total confidentiality???? Yes, I understand the dignity and respectful thing as a past CNA...

What are the legal repercussiions of talking to some other persons...i.e. = divulging his 'secret'????

Tonight in Fort collins no less, at Martinez Park is a live band and a few enthusiastic listeners to the rally for county commissioners: Bob Bacon who I met in person...and the band was playing on when we left....

Hearing the speech, at least parts of it, is also a thrill to hear Senator Obama remain cool, calm, and collected with his part....and the speaker for the debate trying, in vain, to get them to 'talk' to each other, they preferred to address issues to the t.v. audience....which I thought appropriate.

Is Colorado indeed, for Obama, all signs that I see are!

One unruly remark, heard bits and pieces of the speech debate, after the real debate, and these radio talk show hosts, I declare have no heart, joking re: the oldsters, or [handicapped individuals] in mobility scooters with a golf ball...Now get real folks: the golf ball is nothing to be joked about, so it is: when the use of ones grip is gone and I am talking about hand grip and use of your fingers, or palms, this is not a joking matter. Personal insult to injury already had the need for a golf ball on ones scooter is for the mobility and personal ability to get around without assistance, as in assisted living....Please whoever, hosts these shows needs a wake-up call on the golf balls, you should be counting your blessings not to use the scooter with a joy stick and be very thankful you can walk without such aids a distance that most using the scooters canNOT. Indeed.

moral of the story: Its' better to arrive alive and be late: Car racing is for race tracks, that is little comfort to those left behind, or who witnessed the accident...my sympathy to the mourning families.

SPEED kills. Prayer s for angels to comfort those left behind.

this should be a number one election getter for the college students; i know CSU is goin all out and I mean all out to get people registered, standing on every corner, at the library - ARE U registered??? Believing the young, esp. college students don't see color in the factor, being in a university and all, and being educated above all gives them the integrity to get Mr. OBAMA elected.

I for one think Mrs. Obama will make a great, great first lady....and the girls are just precious.

I don't agree at all with the remark, made by some idiot of the nature: " He may get into the whitehouse the first day, but there won't be a second day.."..I , for ONE , believe in the security of the most prestigious office held in our U. S. of A. and it won't happen, believe me, all the small talk in the world will make the uneducated pay attention.

I hope he takes the election by a landslide and all Hill's followeres vote DEMOCRATIC.

i have desires, not your desires: of painting, traveling, soaking up art fairs. Your brothers-they depend on you. Sundays are for them the Indian way. Gather up! Old Mother, she won't always be there, so now, you sit with her obedient son.

I long for your companionship yet you use me as a prostitute to satisfy your dildo...then leave me here as so much used toilet paper to flush away!

It is okaye to visit me leaving me as ***wipe. or a harlot...... then go off visiting alone to see your divorced wife> When two people cannot live together on a daily basis why do you try to keep two wifes? My need is for daily companionship.

No more.

"It is over!" or I will sink in the quicksand with you.

Titled YOUR HERITAGE DROWNS YOU AS QUICKSAND

IN THE DAYS OF SO MUCH INFIDELITY, NO MORALITY IS WORSE THAN INFIDELITY FOR EITHER MAN OR WOMAN, DON'T YOU THINK? IT IS THE CAUSE OF MUCH DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND CAUSES GRIEF TO THE CHILDREN.

What do you have to say re: your experience as the E.P.A. ????asssuming Enviromental Protection Agency and the pollution I mused about from the train cars of sulpher goin up and down this part of Colorado.

Any complaints ever formally filed to the extent of the cycle of clouds, atmospheric winds, and cloudbursts redepositing the sulpher escapin into the air [we breath] and recycling into the sidewalks, parking lots, etc drain gutter places that are stopped up with leafs and other debri???

The yellow edging I notice after puddles of rain fill certain low spots where these pools lie ever catch anyone elses attention?

A certain back dock in Oldtown is a catch-all for kids.....and also the graffiti that follows with the young and restless........

He stepped off the precipice of civilized humanity into the free fall of unadulterated animal lust.......

So it is one of our beautiful Colorado moonlight nights and believe me, the 'vampires' are out in full force by another Oldtown busy bar....

As I scooted home from 7-11 there were some nice lookin legs in heels slowly kicking away, knees crossed, as i looked further the girl was a guy dressed in drag - if that is the proper name, well a rather rough looking face, if don't say so myself....whatever trips your trigger, except someone would have to be pretty tripped out and drunk to fall for that gag.

A ways up in the 7-11 parking lot was the man lying prone by his knapsack, a brother to this other drag person by the texture of their unnaturally thin hair, dirty fingernails, dirtier clothing and pretty layed out lookin as if he was very tired and worn, I wondered why he didn't seek the shelter of the alley, as opposed to lying there where someone could easily pull into the parking lot where he was choosing to rest for a bit. Reporting to the on duty manager a transient person was 'loitering'...."No," he replied, to my request that he look out and simply said: "---we'll see if he moves along on his own."

With that attitude the world would indeed go on by recklessly and carelessly making one wonder what our world is coming too?

Then the line to the more famous bar popular to the college students looked like another wherewith to beset upon by the local [?] hookers .....young ladies with those six inch skirts and not much else for shirts lined up to fend for the best looking guys who seemed more appropriately dressed, or perhaps was i just having a 'wish i were younger moment' But the guys looked much better to me than the girls? Yes, reality cheak, must still be in a heterosexual world.

The graffiti in the Box Bar a bit further down the road [45 miles] to be exact which is famous for its cup cup dart-board antics proved to be quite dead on a Sunday p.m. with a well-stocked hard licquor bar that did sell on Sundays, if there were any customers, that is!

A sign of the hard times we are facing?

alls fair in love and war, but politics and those 'hate' commercials get the prize......

WHATTA TURN OFF it is to see the commercial that our Rep. candidate for PRES has aired on the fox station: blaming Obama for the high price of oil.....whatta jerk head to even declare such a statement....if any of the public has an education on the subject of rotten, tomato throwing commercials, this gets the prize.

..ONE MAN doesn't make decisions about taxes.

Obama is busy rallying overseas views, support, along with raising campaign monies for his upcoming democratic 'campaign'....et. along with getting political views from the 'opponents' / free countries overrun with terrorist legions...or countries wishing to be FREE. He is being pro-active!

What it says about the 'John ' campaign is truely disgusting - Free elections with support goin and/or wishing to vote for a third party candidate just so a name-thrower won't get elected.... MY opinion!!!! My vote is already for Obama and that view is not goin to be influenced by dirty-laundry throwing commercials for the uneducated.

for those of you who don't walk, use a mobility scooter, and ride bycycles in the fast lane; have you ever stopped to look at the puddles after a pouring rain...I do, cause it would get the battery wet on my scooter....lines of yellow edges around the puddles make one wonder if the sulfer has reinvented itself into acid rain, perhaps from the condensation of the sulpher plant itself whereever it is located...

Hello EPA

The puddles dry up and the yellow 'chalk' like substance is left on the pavements, sidewalks, and gutters where the flow has been.

Someday will take a pic, if had the digital camera to do so.

As for different matter of the e-coli, and NOONE knows from where it comes:

A horse of a different color is the e-coli mystery illness that can kill.

I think it comes from the dirt, or from the compost of which is derived manure like substances that we grow our tomatoes, garden varieties of all sorts from the bags of store-bot fertilizer...Hello?

Can the dirt cause e-coli bacteria to 'flavor' tomatoes, veeggies of all sorts, fruits................ as the lettuce scare, we had while back - and the compost used in mass production of fertilizers to speed up the growth; perhaps can cause the illnesses of e-coli by NOT washing, chemicals passed in transportation -whether in the trucks, boxes, crates, or packing 'net' bags, clear plastic containers, etc.

The scientific community should know if this can transfer into the growing veggies inner most parts. I doubt that one, thinking it would be on the surfaces!!!

Don't ya know to wash those veggies, fruits...

and as for our sulfer rains??? someone needs to explore this one..

All the explosions overseas are goin to come back to haunt us in the returning rains, upper atmospheric winds, yepper. ---thinking of our grandchildrens children, come on?

Somewhere in our retirement building the news of a long term tenant passing or moving gets around quickly...in this case, belatedly to me...so the crippling knee disease that suddenly incapacitated our long term tenant upstairs on fourth floor has got another of us entered into an assisted living care facility, as it is... ...our joyful Joyce, single and no children -- wutta life...to end up in a care facility???

Sometimes, I believe when love abounds, business, and chatter of children keeps one s soul in sink...and from old age whatta u get....?????--with the business of not being able to walk independantly, well..........a care facility... what with the expense of a mobility scooter, I once raise up the motion for a need based scooter to keep ones independance and privacy. . . with Volunteers of America doin the frozen meals to you with special love and care, and diet...yes, thats a solution...get a mobility scooter and have your meals prepared for you, at least part of them....

So Joyce, as we sort thru things left behind of dishes, a fancy wooden rolling pin , and frosting decorations, fav white coffee mug, i will use in memory of you.....

McDonalds will miss her as that was her pt-time job for over four years that I knew her..

HOME MADE YEAST

Wash, pare, and soak one large potato. Steep one TB. of hops (loose) In one pint of boiling water; mix one heaping TB of flour, one Tsp. of sugar, one tsp. of salt, one tsp. of ginger; grate the potato into the flour mixture.

Let the hot water boil briskly for one minute, strain it over the flour and potato mixture, then mix thoroughly; if it does not thicken like starch, place it over the fire for a few minutes, stirring briskly. If too thick, add boiling water til think as cream.

When lukewarm or at 70 degrees, add one half cake of yeast.

Raise in a warm place til frothy, beat it down every half hour. Bottle and keep in a cool place.

THREE HOUR BREAD

Pour one cupful of boiling water over two tablespoonfuls of flour and beat well; when this becomes lukewarm add two teaspoonfuls of sugar and one-yeast cake that has been dissolved in one half cupful of lukewarm water. Beat thoroughly, adding flour enough to make a thick batter, beat until light and set in a warm place, about 90 degrees. F. Keep covered and let rise til light and frothy, with this proportion of yeast it should rise in thirty minutes.

When light add one cupful of scalded milk, cooled to lukewarm, and flour enough to make a stiff dough; stir in the flour with a spoon, beating it thoroughly; when the dough begins to stiffen, cut in the flour with a bread knife; add flour until the dough slips easily from the board, and does not stick to the hands. Then knead the dough on a slightly floured board til smooth, elastic, and full of air bubbles

Knead it firmly, but lightly, using only the wrist movements, put back in bowl, cover, and let rise in warm place until it doubles in shape.

Shape into loaves, or biscuit; brush lightly with melted butter, and place in warm buttered pan. Let rise, closely covered until loaves have doubled in bulk. Bake in an oven hot enough to brown one teaspoonful of flour placed on a piece of paper in five minutes.

If biscuit are to be baked, the oven should be hot enough to brown flour in two minutes. Let the bread bake from forty-five minutes to one hour. The first quarter of the time the bread should rise, but not form a crust; the second quarter the crust should form, the third the crust should become golden brown, the fourth should complete the baking.

Place the loaf to cool uncovered, and in such a position that the air can circulate freely around it, bottom and all. Page 90.

Now do you think todays children could bake bread from this recipe??? Not without, a lotta mother, grandmother observations, huh? just thought I'd share!

p.s.Goin online to find out what hops are: HOPS & BERRIES is located at 125 Remington Street Fort Collins, or at www.hopsandberries.com I just had to visit today and many refrigerated varieties are available there in 1 oz. portions selling for 3.75 to 6.75 in two ounce quantities...
