Syria conflict: Aleppo districts 'under fresh assault'
The Syrian city of Aleppo has come under fresh bombardment, activists say, as the government attempts to retake districts seized by rebel fighters.
Several areas of the city were reported to have come under attack, including strafing from helicopter gunships.
The rebels say they have completely withdrawn from the embattled Salah al-Din district "in a tactical move".
The fighting comes as Iran prepares to host its own international meeting on the Syrian crisis.
Iran, Syria's only regional ally, says it will be attended by countries with a "realistic" position on the crisis.
But it is unclear exactly which countries will be attending the summit, held in Tehran.
Western governments have expressed scepticism that Tehran can mediate, because of its close relationship with the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
A new prime minister, Wael al-Halqi - the former health minister - has been appointed, state television has announced.
He replaces Riad Hijab, whose defection to the opposition was announced on Monday and who was said to have crossed into Jordan on Wednesday.
Conflicting claims
The Free Syrian Army (FSA) has confirmed it has retreated from the strategic Salah al-Din district, a densely packed area of narrow streets.
"We have staged a tactical withdrawal from Salah al-Din," rebel commander Hossam Abu Mohammed of the Dara al-Shahbaa Brigade in the northern city told the AFP news agency by phone.
"The district is completely empty of rebel fighters. Regime forces are now advancing into Salah al-Din."
State media had earlier said the army was now in full control of the district, reporting that hundreds of "terrorist mercenaries" had been arrested or killed.
On Wednesday, Syria's state military launched a large operation to retake Aleppo from the rebel fighters, who overran some districts three weeks ago.
Aleppo is Syria's largest city, and Salah al-Din is considered a vital supply route for government troops coming from the south.
There were reports of further clashes overnight in the districts of Hanano, Saif al-Dawla, Shaar and Shakur, said the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, quoted by AFP.
The Local Co-ordination Committees network of activists also reported shelling and gunfire in several districts.
The Syrian Observatory said at least 26 people were killed in Aleppo on Wednesday - it said they were among 130 people killed across the country.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has said the foreign ministers' summit in Tehran will be a gathering of countries with "a correct and realistic position" on the Syrian conflict.
He said it would be an opportunity "to replace military clashes with political, indigenous approaches to settle the disputes".
Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi was quoted by state media as saying "12 to 13 countries from Asia, Africa and Latin America" would be taking part, but did not name them.
Kuwait's foreign ministry told al-Seyassah newspaper it would not be sending a representative. Lebanon has also said it will not attend while Russia is sending its ambassador and not Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov.
The BBC's Jim Muir in Beirut says this is a meeting of people who are already close to Tehran and to the Syrian regime.
There is deep scepticism in the West about Iran assuming a peacemaker role, given its recent strong commitments to the survival of the Assad government, our correspondent adds.
Earlier this week, Iran's security chief Saeed Jalili visited President Assad in Damascus, to pledge Tehran's support.
Mr Jalili said Syria was one part of a vital regional alliance which he described as the "axis of resistance", which Tehran would not allow to be broken.

This photo shoot was actually a costume test for the music video 'Red Sky At Night', which Julia and I styled and shot together (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QSaXK14C-8s). This was so much fun! Shot in a local garden near my house. I added some additional edits for tone and softness. On a side note, I made that headdress myself.

U nastavku slede neki od najzanimljivijih odlomaka iz intervjua koji je američka književnica Maja Angelou dala za časopis The Paris Review. Autor intervjua bio je Džordž Plimton, osnivač i dugo godina glavni i odgovorni urednik tog lista. Intervju je dobro polazište za otkivanje biografskih detalja i stvaralačkih rituala ove umetnice. Boca šerija, Biblija i hotelska soba neki su od neophodnih detalja pre početka rada na jeziku.
You once told me that you write lying on a made-up bed with a bottle of sherry, a dictionary, Roget's Thesaurus, yellow pads, an ashtray, and a Bible. What's the function of the Bible?
The language of all the interpretations, the translations, of the Judaic Bible and the Christian Bible, is musical, just wonderful. I read the Bible to myself; I'll take any translation, any edition, and read it aloud, just to hear the language, hear the rhythm, and remind myself how beautiful English is. Though I do manage to mumble around in about seven or eight languages, English remains the most beautiful of languages. It will do anything.
When you are refreshed by the Bible and the sherry, how do you start a day's work?
I have kept a hotel room in every town I've ever lived in. I rent a hotel room for a few months, leave my home at six, and try to be at work by six-thirty. To write, I lie across the bed, so that this elbow is absolutely encrusted at the end, just so rough with callouses. I never allow the hotel people to change the bed, because I never sleep there. I stay until twelve-thirty or one-thirty in the afternoon, and then I go home and try to breathe; I look at the work around five; I have an orderly dinner—proper, quiet, lovely dinner; and then I go back to work the next morning. Sometimes in hotels I'll go into the room and there'll be a note on the floor which says, Dear Miss Angelou, let us change the sheets. We think they are moldy. But I only allow them to come in and empty wastebaskets. I insist that all things are taken off the walls. I don't want anything in there. I go into the room and I feel as if all my beliefs are suspended. Nothing holds me to anything. No milkmaids, no flowers, nothing. I just want to feel and then when I start to work I'll remember. I'll read something, maybe the Psalms, maybe, again, something from Mr. Dunbar, James Weldon Johnson. And I'll remember how beautiful, how pliable the language is, how it will lend itself. If you pull it, it says, OK." I remember that and I start to write. Nathaniel Hawthorne says, "Easy reading is damn hard writing." I try to pull the language in to such a sharpness that it jumps off the page. It must look easy, but it takes me forever to get it to look so easy. Of course, there are those critics—New York critics as a rule—who say, Well, Maya Angelou has a new book out and of course it's good but then she's a natural writer. Those are the ones I want to grab by the throat and wrestle to the floor because it takes me forever to get it to sing. I work at the language. On an evening like this, looking out at the auditorium, if I had to write this evening from my point of view, I'd see the rust-red used worn velvet seats and the lightness where people's backs have rubbed against the back of the seat so that it's a light orange, then the beautiful colors of the people's faces, the white, pink-white, beige-white, light beige and brown and tan—I would have to look at all that, at all those faces and the way they sit on top of their necks. When I would end up writing after four hours or five hours in my room, it might sound like, It was a rat that sat on a mat. That's that. Not a cat. But I would continue to play with it and pull at it and say, I love you. Come to me. I love you. It might take me two or three weeks just to describe what I'm seeing now.
How much revising is involved?
I write in the morning and then go home about midday and take a shower, because writing, as you know, is very hard work, so you have to do a double ablution. Then I go out and shop—I'm a serious cook—and pretend to be normal. I play sane—Good morning! Fine, thank you. And you? And I go home. I prepare dinner for myself and if I have houseguests, I do the candles and the pretty music and all that. Then after all the dishes are moved away I read what I wrote that morning. And more often than not if I've done nine pages I may be able to save two and a half or three. That's the cruelest time you know, to really admit that it doesn't work. And to blue pencil it. When I finish maybe fifty pages and read them—fifty acceptable pages—it's not too bad. I've had the same editor since 1967. Many times he has said to me over the years or asked me, Why would you use a semicolon instead of a colon? And many times over the years I have said to him things like: I will never speak to you again. Forever. Goodbye. That is it. Thank you very much. And I leave. Then I read the piece and I think of his suggestions. I send him a telegram that says, OK, so you're right. So what? Don't ever mention this to me again. If you do, I will never speak to you again. About two years ago I was visiting him and his wife in the Hamptons. I was at the end of a dining room table with a sit-down dinner of about fourteen people. Way at the end I said to someone, I sent him telegrams over the years. From the other end of the table he said, And I've kept every one! Brute! But the editing, one's own editing, before the editor sees it, is the most important.
So you don't keep a particular reader in mind when you sit down in that hotel room and begin to compose or write. It's yourself.
It's myself . . . and my reader. I would be a liar, a hypocrite, or a fool—and I'm not any of those—to say that I don't write for the reader. I do. But for the reader who hears, who really will work at it, going behind what I seem to say. So I write for myself and that reader who will pay the dues. There's a phrase in West Africa, in Ghana; it's called "deep talk." For instance, there's a saying: "The trouble for the thief is not how to steal the chief's bugle but where to blow it." Now, on the face of it, one understands that. But when you really think about it, it takes you deeper. In West Africa they call that "deep talk." I'd like to think I write "deep talk." When you read me, you should be able to say, Gosh, that's pretty. That's lovely. That's nice. Maybe there's something else? Better read it again. Years ago I read a man named Machado de Assis who wrote a book called Dom Casmurro. Machado de Assis is a South American writer—black father, Portuguese mother—writing in 1865, say. I thought the book was very nice. Then I went back and read the book and said, Hmm. I didn't realize all that was in that book. Then I read it again, and again, and I came to the conclusion that what Machado de Assis had done for me was almost a trick: he had beckoned me onto the beach to watch a sunset. And I had watched the sunset with pleasure. When I turned around to come back in I found that the tide had come in over my head. That's when I decided to write. I would write so that the reader says, That's so nice. Oh boy, that's pretty. Let me read that again. I think that's why Caged Bird is in its twenty-first printing in hardcover and its twenty-ninth in paper. All my books are still in print, in hardback as well as paper, because people go back and say, Let me read that. Did she really say that?

"…provides an important counterpoint to prevailing claims that socialism, in all its modes and meanings, was quickly abandoned by populations that were hungry to embrace the 'freedoms' of a market-oriented economy…reveals its ambitious scope and its broad, comparative approach toward understanding the complex anxieties and uncertainties that people continue to face in transforming societies." · Journal of Anthropological Research
Against the historical backdrop of successive socialist and post-socialist claims to have completely remade society, the contributors to this volume explore the complex and often paradoxical continuities between diverse post-socialist presents and their corresponding socialist and pre-socialist pasts. The chapters focus on ways in which: pre-socialist economic, political, and cultural forms in fact endured an era of socialism and have found new life in the post-socialist present, notwithstanding revolutionary socialist claims; continuities with a pre-socialist past have been produced within the historical imaginary of post-socialism; and socialist economic, political, and cultural forms have in fact endured in a purportedly postsocialist era, despite the claims of neo-liberal reformers.
Harry G. West is Reader in Social Anthropology at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS). His research in northern Mozambique has examined how colonialism, revolutionary socialism, and post-socialist political and economic liberalization have reconfigured institutions of local authority.
Parvathi Raman is a Lecturer in Social Anthropology at the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS). Her research in South Africa explores the historical impact of Indians in the South African Communist Party, and their contribution to the struggle against apartheid.

VALHALLA, N.Y. (CBSNewYork/AP) — The estranged wife of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. had three antidepressants but no alcohol in her system when she hanged herself in May, according to an autopsy report released Friday.
Mary Richardson Kennedy, 52, had trazodone, venlafaxine and desmethylvenlafaxine in her system when she killed herself in a barn at her family's estate in Bedford, according to the Westchester County Medical Examiner's report.
Kennedy's divorce from Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was pending at the time of her death, and one of her brothers tried unsuccessfully to get custody of her body before she was buried near the Kennedy compound in Massachusetts.
Kennedy Jr. didn't immediately return a call seeking comment Friday.
In divorce papers, her husband — son of U.S. Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and nephew of President John F. Kennedy — had asked that she be required to remain sober in front of their four children and not threaten suicide in their presence. Her family accused him of using the filings as a "brutal psychological weapon."
Mary Kennedy's internal struggles became public after she and her husband split. She was arrested twice on charges of driving while intoxicated.
"She struggled so hard, for so long, with mental illness, which so many Americans suffer with," said Kerry Kennedy, her sister-in-law and nearly lifelong friend. "She fought with dignity, and in the end, the demons won."

Summers: The Euro is worth saving
Former U.S. Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers speaks with Reuters Chrystia Freeland about the European Union's chances for survival during a discussion at The University of Western Ontario.
Is -- Europe and survived and and should be morning team. -- I think we should do you want. The European Union to survive. Yeah this is about much more. Then banks. -- history. Europe for as long as it's been recorded. Has basically been a history of wars. Between people in one region of it and another region of it. For a thousand years. That has come to seem almost inconceivable. In most of the continent. And the reason. Is that there's been a very different kind of approach. Two coming together. After the worst of the wars the Second World War. Then there ever was before. And anyone who believes in friendship between nations. Who believes in economic integration. As a way of bringing people's. It together. Pass to believe. That the European Union is a profoundly good thing and wanted to succeed. Unfortunately. There is a tendency on the part. Political leaders. To believe -- economic things. Political will. Can overcome. Technical flaw. Can be monetary union. Had important. The internal contradictions within. One important internal contradiction. Involved. The degree of difference. Between the different. European economies. Perhaps the most profound one is. Justin by this example it's. Supposed that everyone in this room. Work to go to dinner. Tonight. And he was agreed that we would all pay. 1350. But the cost. I imagine that people would order quite lavishly. If we're gonna do that every day anyway we didn't figure out the first day that they were supposed to order quite lavishly would have figured it out by the end of the week. If we then said. Actually it's a little better than that not only are we each gonna go to dinner but where each gonna pay 1350. Of the party. And we can each invite as many friends as we want. The thing would get kind at a control. Well the -- it away is what happens. When you have a single printer of money. And you had many different. Blood sugars and acting without. Control. So and particularly. It is what happened when that there was 1 Central Bank. And banks that we're separately regulated. Each of the number of countries. The incentive. To. Over lever. To draw on the common pool. Was excessive. What's the natural control. The natural control is that the more responsible. Com and more powerful. Entities. Controlled or less powerful ones. But -- European history with. German control. Has not been happy in the twentieth century. And so there was resistance. Legitimate and understandable resistance to that. So in some ways what is surprising. Is not that the Euro is having a crisis. What is surprising is that it took as long for the Euro to happen crisis. As it has. Given that technical difficulty. He what was an enormously attractive. The vision. We are -- Going to get out of this. By supposing that if we're just patient. Things will come down. That is not the way bank runs and financial crises. War.

Fund Raising to Support Community Programs
Over the past year Art Intersection presented nine public exhibitions in the North and South Galleries showing work from student, emerging, and internationally known artists. To support these programs, we work with our artist community to present the Off the Wall exhibition where all of the artwork is donated and for sale in a silent auction format.
Sales from Off the Wall keep the exhibitions in the North and South galleries free and open to the public, and support community programs such as the Emerge student photography exhibition and our artist in residence program.
During the five-week exhibition, please visit the North and South Galleries to view Off the Wall, which features the artwork of established, and emerging artists. An online gallery of the exhibition makes it easy to review the artwork.
Silent Auction
Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to bid on your favorite artwork(s) and take it off the wall for your own collection or as a unique gift for someone special in your life.
You can bid on the artwork(s) that caught your eye throughout the exhibition, or use buy-it-now. The final silent auction bidding happens Saturday, December 6, 6 to 9pm.
Bids may be made in person, in the gallery, or by email beginning November 1, 2014. Email bids will be accepted until midnight December 5, 2014. An online gallery, viewable on November 1, will list the "Buy-It-Now" price allowing you to purchase an auction item anytime prior to the auction evening on December 6.

Guadalcanal. Tarawa. Iwo Jima. Okinawa. Just some of the legendary actions the US Marine Corps fought in - actions that have rightfully sent the USMC into legend.
There are few fighting forces that can rival the fearsome reputation of the United States Marine Corps. Indeed they can trace their ancestry back to the Revolutionary War in the 18th Century, serving all over the globe up to the present day.
During the Second World War the US Marines spearheaded the American response to Japanese aggression, leading to a ferocious island-hopping campaign. The technologically superior US forces made many amphibious assaults that wore down the Japanese and culminated in crushing American victories albeit with terrible loss of life on both sides.
US Marines in the Pacific Theatre of Operations were eager to get the job done be it with the bayonet, shotgun or their Thompson submachine guns. Their loyalty to their comrades and the Corps stood them in good stead as they faced a fanatical foe where no quarter was given no received.

We've got professionals with the best gear to assist with the restoration of your property. If your home or business in North Salem, NY suffers from water or mold damage, we want to help.
Water Damage Restoration
No one expects they are going to have to wade through water to get out the front door, but when your property needs to be professionally dried we're here to help. Water can and will get everywhere. When it does, we make sure to examine and restore with consideration and accuracy. We do more than simply dry out your house. We also use an anti-microbial application to stop mold from growing. We do this because you already have enough issues with the water damage, and you shouldn't have to deal with mold as well.
Catalog and Storage Services

We also provide GPS tracking so you know where your items are at all times. We also include detailed descriptions and photo updates so you know your items are being treated properly.
Mold Remediation and Removal
Mold can be an awful ordeal for any homeowner. Mold moves through the air using particles called "spores". Spores can create a fowl odor, and are dangerous to your health. ServiceMaster Superior Cleaning & Restoration Services has the best technicians with the finest equipment to eliminate mold or the spores that it produces. To us, mold is something that can't be ignored. Please to don't wait call us today.
Moisture Removal and Mold Remediation
In order to get rid of moisture in the air, our specialists use a tool called a dehumidifier. This step is performed after the initial remediation. It's a vital part in the restoration process; Moisture in the air needs to be addressed within the first day. If ignored mold can grow, which leads to spores in the air. Our methods using air movement, dehumidifying, as well as monitoring after the water has been remediated will definitely dry out your property. We want you to know we will handle your property and furniture with care, and keep you involved every step of the way in North Salem, NY.

LM-8 Hidden Camera & Bug Detector
Every order gets free ground shipping (about 3-5 days). 2-day and overnight are available at checkout.
Our entire team is located in Dallas, TX. Get advice and lifetime tech support from our experts.
We know you're keeping this a secret. Orders come in a plain envelope or box that can't be traced back to SpyGuy.
Product overview
- Great for frequent travelers
- Finds hidden cameras
- Can also detect wireless microphones
- Very wide 20MHz-6GHz frequency range
- Our best 'all-around' bug detector
The Only Way To Find All Types Of Cameras
Have you seen our huge spy camera collection? We have over 50 of them, and the average person doesn't even realize that these products are even available to the public.
On top of that, it feels like there's a news story every other day that details how a criminal used a hidden camera in an illegal way. Often times, they involve hotel rooms, which are where travelers usually stay.
If you've ever worried about a hidden camera watching you, the LM-8 can find it. It doesn't matter if that camera is wired, wireless, or battery operated - the LM-8 finds wherever the camera is.
How To Use It:
See the red viewport at the top of the detector? You look through it and hit the 'blink' button on the side - this makes the LEDs blink outward towards whatever you're looking at. The bright red light bounces off of pinhole cameras lenses, which then goes back to the viewport you're looking through. It's very obvious when you've found a lens, which you can then closely investigate.
On top of that, you're also able to find a very wide range of wireless signals, like microphones and hidden cameras. The LM-8 actually has the 2nd widest frequency range of all our counter surveillance (20MHz-6GHz), which makes this our best all-around bug detector.
If you need to know more about how wireless bugs work, click the tab above labeled 'How It Works'.
People That Get This:
- Think a camera is watching them
- Are often traveling and in hotel rooms
Here's How It Works
When someone uses the term 'bug', they're usually talking about a covert device that sends a wireless signal. That device could be a hidden camera or microphone. The signal it sends usually goes anywhere from 50-500 feet, but it could go further.
The signal that's being sent goes to a receiver. That receiver could be send to a tape recorder, or even a person camping inside a van like you see in movies. Yes, law enforcement actually does that! That signal can be detected with a bug detector.
So, you think you're being bugged. Turn off all your electronics that emit signals, like wireless routers and cordless phones. Flip the power switch on the detector, and pay attention to the LEDs on the bug detector. If it senses a weak signal, a couple of LEDs might flicker.
The stronger the signal, the brighter the LEDs get. As you walk around the room, pay attention to those lights. If there really is a wireless bug, you'll be able to pinpoint where it is.
What's In The Box
- LM-8 Hidden Camera & Bug Detector
- 2xAAA batteries
- Instruction manual
Expert Advice
Like the description said, it's perfect for anyone that travels and has a suspicion a camera is watching them. Hotel room hidden cameras are nothing new - there are news stories about that every week, it feels like.
This is the only bug detector we offer that finds all types of hidden cameras, and it also has a wide frequency range - it's easily our best 'all-around' tracker.

The importance of plant health
Seed or plant health refers to the disease status of a seed or plant sample and the presence or absence of disease-causing organisms and pests.
Why is plant health testing important
Crops are frequently infected with a range of common seed-borne or systemic pathogens that may not be visible or easily recognized during seed collection. Seed-borne or systemic inoculums may reduce longevity during storage and cause poor germination or field establishment. Seed-borne and systemic inoculums also are a source of infection and spread disease in the field, reducing the value of crops. Exchange of infected seeds or plant material may allow spread of diseases and pests into new regions. Genebanks should ensure that seeds or plant material prepared for conservation are free from seed-borne or systemic diseases and pests.
Common seed-borne or systemic pests and pathogens
There are four main types of common organisms that are carried in seeds or plant material and affect a wide range of crops:
- Fungi
- Bacteria
- Virus
- Insects
Specific methods for detecting pathogens vary by organism and host, and specific methods are required for accurate identification of most pathogens.
See the safe movement of germplasm section on this site for lists of common pathogens of quarantine importance for a range of crops and information on best practices for safe movement of germplasm.

Opera Penthouse is an exclusive home located at the 31st floor of a residential complex built on a cliff in Netanya, Israel. Gorgeously decorated with soothing Armani design features, the two-level mansion imagined by Domb Architects creates "a harmonious meeting point between the sky and the sea" and exceeds even the expectations of the most demanding clientele. The very expression of luxury, this lovely home opens to the breathtaking blue horizon, inviting residents to enjoy the shimmering turquoise waters of the Mediterranean Sea while soaking in absolute comfort. The kitchen, dining, lounge and living room are all interconnected, compiling a grand, continuous social area.
Master bedroom and dressing room are both located in the private area facing east. "A luxurious sitting area welcomes the amazing suite which overlooks from the heights, the roofs of the city and the sea. The bathroom located on one side, as an integral space of the bedroom – but with a partition that allows disconnecting it- if necessary. The bath was placed freestanding- kissing the sky. Two marble sinks piece above bathroom furniture-is a work of art." The penthouse's top floor (which can be accessed via elevator) accommodates a second living room with adjoining terrace and swimming pool, the gym and a guest bedroom. Overwhelming and inspiring, the house exudes sophistication and elegance. The soft tones of colour contrast with the sea and sky. Isn't this paradise or what?

A Look Back at #ShedWed2013Just over a year ago, my now bridesmaid, Andrea (affectionately nicknamed 'Shed' for her maiden name), got married in a beautiful, formal hotel wedding in Rockville, Maryland just outside of Washington, DC where we went to college. I actually attended this wedding not as a Bridesmaid, but as her Day of Wedding Coordinator to pull together a ~200 person affair complete with rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception and post wedding brunch. This is one of the larger weddings I've attended so I was more than excited to dig into my coordinating role.
|Andrea & Her Prince Eric
The story behind Andrea and I's friendship is an interesting story. We met in the spring of 2007 when I joined Phi Mu sorority where Shed was already a member. While we enjoyed each other's company in college, we were certain not very close friends. It really wasn't until 2012 when I was living in Phoenix and Shed had become an LA resident that we began to chat frequently on Facebook, growing increasingly closer as she planned her wedding. Shed is all the things I love: hilarious, fellow blogger, quirky, a glitter fanatic and incredibly artsy. We've attended a number of wedding events together, including her amazeballs bachelorette party in Hollywood. Today, I can't imagine a better person to be standing by my side on my wedding day.
|Let's recreate this moment again soon.
I want to share some of my favorite photos from the wedding with a few personal comments about my experience at #ShedWed2013.
One of my absolutely favorite parts of Andrea's wedding was her wedding parties attire. I would never even think to put aqua blue with red, but she pulled it off. The entire bridal party is outfitted from David's Bridal in vibrant Malibu and Candy Apple. The flowers were simple and gorgeous fall season bouquets. I love that Andrea used a match Malibu sash on her wedding gown which really tied her ensemble together for me.
Andrea's dress has amazing sparkle for being fully lace. It had delicate beading which was so gorgeous, yet sophisticated. This is one of the best dresses I've seen from David's Bridal for sure. The quality is much higher and the detailing much more intricate that the usual aline styles that are shown. Her veil accented her gorgeous hair without being overwhelming. #shewokeuplikethis
The groomsmen wore dark gray with the same color accents. It doesn't look prom like, which is how I usually feel about suits with light colored parts. I also appreciate the off beat groomswoman who still manages to "be one of the guys" instead of just becoming a bridesmaid on the wrong side of the aisle.
In having a traditional and formal hotel wedding, the ceremony space was pretty classic. I appreciate that there was simple and modern decor, not too much and not too little. The Chiavari chairs are literally one of my favorite parts of weddings. They are just so damn elegant. I also really liked the use of pipe and drape with uplighting to highlight the Chuppah. Once again, not too much and not too little. This is especially important in a hotel ballroom where there is often colored and patterned carpeting and walls, as seen in the photo above. Shed chose to work with the gold and blue colors rather than try to hide it.
One really amazing thing that Shed chose to have was one of our sorority sisters, Jenna (also one of my best friends), to be the officiant at her wedding. They designed a romantic, sweet and fun ceremony that highlighted some of my favorite parts about Eric and Andrea as a couple. Jenna is a great public speaker with a knack for ceremonies, as she conducted many sorority rituals as chapter president in college. Jenna was excellent; however I would absolutely encourage any bride to choose a wedding officiant carefully. Not everyone is witty, professional and well versed as Jenna. Some people get nervous. Some states do not allow for a friend or family member to legally marry you. Just be steadfast in your officiant research, because the ceremony will set the tone of the reception.
|Day of Coordinator, Bride & Officiant
After the ceremony, all of the guests headed out into the foyer of the ballroom for cocktail hour while the ballroom was expanded and transformed into the reception space. This is common for hotel weddings.
I have basically no photos of cocktail hour because I was drinking these amazing signature drinks that were aqua blue and full of liquor. Andrea spared no expense on the cocktail hour. There were multiple full liquor bars, food stations with pasta and meat being served by chefs and passed hors d'oeuvres as well. The only problem was that the foyer was not exactly large enough for all the guests. I'm going to guess this was a logistical error on the side of the hotel because there is no way you could predict (as an individual) that the space would fill so rapidly and force people close together. Because of so many people, it was literally like Black Friday shopping. Alternating waiting in line for drinks and snatching food off of trays that came by. I will say that all of the food was well plated, warm and delicious and the drinks were poured nice and strong the way I like them.
Before long, the ballroom was completely transformed and the DJ was warming up as the bridal party entered. I thought the room looked elegant and simple, much like the ceremony space. The centerpieces were tall with red flowers and definitely did not get in the way of conversation at the table. Jenna (the officiant) and I hit the bar immediately and befriended the bartender who poured us more signature drinks
Andrea served a 4 course plated meal. The food was delicious and served hot, which is quite a feat for serving dinner to ~200 people in a ballroom. The staff was attentive and efficient. No complaints there. Before long, Andrea and Eric were ready to cut the cake and get the party started.
Her cake topper was the Little Mermaid and Prince Eric dancing and was absolutely the perfect personal touch for these two. God, that cake is so cute. You can see me on the left side of the photo salivating practically.
The party got pumping after cake cutting. I caught the bouquet and literally I am (almost with the exception of one of our sorority sisters who got married like over the summer) the next one to get married! Damn, how many bouquets did I have to catch before finally saying that came true? #tallgirlproblems
|Very proud of my catch.
|Sisters are the chains that allow me to be freeeeeeee....Sisters are the mirrors that let me see meeeeeeee....
That mushy stuff aside, I thought Andrea & Eric's wedding had all of the most important aspects of a wedding: good food, touching ceremony, lots of alcohol. It was such a fun day from start to finish and I'm so thankful to have been a party of it. The personal touches of "the Little Mermaid" were a great twist on a tradition hotel wedding with all of the frills of formality that I love in any wedding.
Big shout out to Shed for letting me do this wedding recap like a bazillion years later. Love you gurl.

Is it a Broker?
How to ensure that you have direct contact with a family solicitor.
This article is designed to advise potential family clients with regard to the changing face of the legal market in Family Law.
The exclusion of private law matters from the scope of Legal Aid under the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act (LASPO) which came into effect early in April 2013 has been largely responsible for changing the way a large number of Family Lawyers do business.
Hitherto, private law matters were often pursued with the benefit of a Legal Aid Certificate. After April 2013 anybody wishing to pursue a claim in the courts for private law children's matters must pay privately for this unless in exceptional circumstances they meet the gateway provisions (briefly that they themselves are a victim of domestic violence or there is a safeguarding issue in relation to the children).
Consequently there are an increasing number of organisations chasing a limited amount of work.
This change has heralded a change in marketing initiatives and consequently it is important that some analysis of what a client is buying needs to be undertaken at the outset.
There are many websites nationally which effectively act as family litigation brokers. Taking the information from a potential client and farming that information out to geographically proximate organisations. There is no direct assessment of quality. Clients need to be aware that they might not be dealing with solicitors in the first instance.
There are clear advantages in interacting with a solicitor's firm direct from the outset:
1. Clear and transparent client care procedures throughout together with the fact that the solicitor's profession is heavily regulated.
2. No arrangement or administration fees due to the fact that you are dealing directly with the provider of the legal services.
3. An ability to procure an advocate of choice whether that bean in-house solicitor or barrister without the limitation of dealing with those barristers who are prepared to engage in direct access.
4. A clear complaints procedure and recourse should it go wrong.
5. The ability to instruct an individual solicitor and have continuity of representation throughout the life of the case.
6. The ability to identify the exact nature of qualification of the lawyer representing you and clear terms of engagement.
Interacting with Legal Services can be difficult but made more so by the offering of itemised services directly to the public via a wide range of providers with varying degrees of regulation and accountability.
There are some things to watch out for when considering interacting with advertised legal services:
1. An inability to spot an office address could mean that you are dealing with a broker in the first instance.
2. 0800 telephone numbers are often designed to disguise the location of those dealing with the calls.
3. Online divorce services are often advertising "lawyers". This is a generic term and does not necessarily mean a qualified solicitor – often there is no lawyer involvement with regard to online divorce services.
4. It may be that agreed or amicable proceedings can be dealt with by less qualified staff. It is when things go wrong and there is a contest that strict regulation gives the best opportunity of quality representation.
There is a common conception of solicitors' practices dealing with matters slowly and being court driven. The modern family practice engages in a wide range of services including alternatives to court proceedings, mediation and alternate dispute resolution.
Be assured that a solicitor's practice that moves with the times gives clients the best opportunity to obtain a clear, professional and expeditious service in a regulated environment.

1936 Ford "First Love"
"First Love" is a 1936 Ford three-window coupe originally purchased in 1958 by nine-year-old Ross Myers. For his $25.00 he got a "car" that was really no more than a body and some fenders. His intention was to build a hot rod he could use in high school. When another early car (this one with an engine) came his way, the young man put the Ford in his father's barn where it sat untouched for over forty years. When the car came out of the barn, he decided that it deserved to be turned into the finest 1936 Ford hot rod the world had ever seen. Built over a period of three years by Rad Rides by Troy, a well-known Illinois-based hot rod designer/builder, the car incorporates sophisticated and creative body, drive train and suspension designs never before seen anywhere. The beautiful and innovative car won the coveted Ridler Award at the 2007 Detroit Autorama, the first time it appeared in public. In it's coverage of the event, Hot Rod Magazine wrote that, in terms of winning in hot rod/custom car show competition, the "goalposts have now been moved into the next county." After its national show tour in 2007, "First Love" is now a permanent exhibit at Three Dog Garage.

Is Odeke ready to take next step?
KAMPALA. To those close to him, he is a budding talent, a good boxer with a huge chance of becoming a world star. To others, especially the fans that witnessed his fight against Iranian Abbas Nassab last year, Kenneth 'Mr. Bad News' Odeke is merely a big joke, real bad news, as suggests his nickname. But what causes this chasm of perception?
In retrospect, Odeke, 22, had an impeccable record of three knock-out wins in three before that fateful night. So good at frightening his opponents in the build-up to his fights, he was highly billed to win the bout against Nassab. He had assured all that and spectators could not wait. But contrary to expectations, Odeke was battered and humiliated, just to say the least.
The result of what had been deemed as an 'Odeke Night' showed the younger boxer had virtually no chance against the experienced Abbas. He looked clueless, provoking theories that he could have been half-baked and ill-prepared for the fight in particular and for professional boxing in general.
But Odeke told Daily Monitor, "I'm still strong, that was a rarity, it happens to everyone." Adding, "I still hold that urge and power to push forward despite challenges, this is just the beginning." He says he is made of sterner stuff and is "keen to scale the Klitscho heights".His belief is supported by some in the administrative circles.
Jackson Mugwanya, the secretary general, Uganda Professional Boxing Commission (UPBC), assessed: "Kenneth is a very good boxer, he has the potential to rise again, if well-handled, he's primed for a better future," adding, "even the best fighters [like Mike Tyson] have bad days."Maureen Mulangira, his new promoter under Intersport International Promotions told Daily Monitor that Odeke is now in good hands and in shape for serious challenges. "In Abbey Mugaye and Semanda Edwin, he has got some of the best coaches. He trains harder and feeds better. I think he is on course."
She also says that Odeke was rushed into such big fights yet preparation was lacking. "He didn't train enough and that is what we are seriously addressing" .
About his experience or the lack of it, Odeke says his record stands: 20(3KO), 2, 3 during his amateur spell with East Coast Boxing Club.
Improvement in technique Mugwanya says "I cannot say he was rushed, he had a good number of fights in the amateur ranks. Besides, we have seen better professional fighters like Mike Tyson, who never had so much time in amateur boxing."
Odeke partly blames the organisers for that agonising defeat, saying "I was mentally-disturbed, they told me the fight had been cancelled, just hours later they told us it's on." By then, he says he had switched off. But he dares Nassab vowing that after defeating Hudson Muhumuza, in a National Heavyweight title fight today Lugogo Indoor Stadium, he will seek a rematch with the Iranian.He boasts an improvement on the technique, especially the footwork.
"I have even added some kilos, yet my footwork is getting better." However, fellow boxer Raymond 'Desert Lion' Sentongo, thinks Odeke is a good boxer but he doesn't give it his all in training. "Training is every boxer's most lethal weapon. As a professional, you've got to be steady all the time but Odeke is somewhat reluctant, otherwise, he's a good fighter", he says.
Mugwanya, however, dismisses the Abbas rematch as useless, emphasising that first bout was not meant to be as it was outside the WBC-I jurisdiction.Tonight's fight against Muhumuza is Odeke's first return to the ring since losing to Nassab. His resolve shall be under close scrutiny by all and sundry and the results might say a lot on whether his daring pursuit of stardom holds any water.
