ISO rules compliance
Complying with the ISO rules
As Alberta's ISO, we have the authority to make ISO rules in accordance with Section 20 of the Electric Utilities Act. The Electric Utilities Act requires electricity market participants to comply with the ISO rules and the AESO is responsible for monitoring market participant compliance with ISO rules.. Compliance with the ISO rules is a key element of both system reliability and the operation of a fair, efficient and openly competitive market. As well as monitoring market participant compliance with the ISO rules, the AESO can, through training, publications, meetings, phone calls and other communications, work with market participants to help them to come to a better understanding of their obligations, the AESO's expectations, the compliance monitoring process and the possible repercussions of non-compliance.
As part of our monitoring obligation, we must refer suspected contraventions of the ISO rules to the Market Surveillance Administrator. The Market Surveillance Administrator is responsible for the enforcement of compliance with the ISO rules.
The Alberta Utilities Commission defines the penalties for contraventions of ISO rules. Read the Alberta Utilities Commission Rule 019—Specified Penalties for Contravention of ISO Rules that sets out the approved penalties for ISO rule contraventions.
Read background on the ISO rules compliance monitoring process here:
ISO Rule 103.12 - Compliance Monitoring
ISO Rule 103.12 sets out the requirements for the ISO and market participants with respect to monitoring compliance with the ISO rules, the Alberta Reliability Standards and AUC 021 –Settlement System Code. Among other requirements, ISO rule 103.12 describes how the ISO may learn of cases of potential non-compliance and how it reviews the facts available with respect to the issue. It describes the confidential handling by the ISO of compliance matters. It describes the information request process by which the ISO obtains additional information related to potential non-compliances. The AESO provides an opportunity for a market participant who is suspected of potential non-compliance, to review the relevant facts and provide any additional facts and perspective for consideration. ISO rule 103.12 describes the referral process by which the ISO, after coming to a determination that it suspects an ISO rule was contravened, refers the matter to the Market Surveillance Administrator.
MSA Compliance Process
Once a suspected ISO rule contravention has been referred to the MSA by the AESO, the MSA assumes sole carriage of the matter and becomes the primary contact for the market participant. As part of the referral, the AESO will make available to the MSA, information obtained in the course of its compliance monitoring activities. The MSA makes a determination as to what enforcement action is appropriate.
The process by which the MSA handles referrals of suspected rule contraventions from the ISO is described in detail in the MSA Compliance Process.
We use a variety of approaches to monitor compliance with the ISO rules. These are explained in the following:
Monitoring compliance in the energy market
The energy market allows electricity from competitive generation in Alberta to be offered for sale, and enables that generation to be subsequently dispatched to meet demand on a minute-to-minute basis.
The energy market is explained in further detail here:
The requirements for market participants in the energy market are detailed in the ISO rules.
Guidance on how market participants submit information and receive instructions from the AESO with regard to participation in the energy market is found in the pool participant manuals.
A standard multi-step process is carried out each month to review the behaviour of the market participants in the energy market relative to the requirements in the ISO rules. Read about this process here:
Monitoring compliance in the Operating Reserves market
We procure Operating Reserve from Alberta generation and load through the Operating Reserve market.
Operating Reserves are part of the Ancillary Services provided by the AESO. Read a comprehensive overview of ancillary services, including Operating Reserves, here:
Information on how market participants submit information and receive instructions from the AESO in regard to the Operating Reserves market is found in the pool participant manual.
The process used to assess the compliance of Operating Reserve providers with the obligations in the contracts and the ISO rules is found here:
Monitoring compliance in transmission facility project procurement
Project procurement obligations for the legal owners of transmission facilities are detailed in subsection 9.1.5 of ISO rule 9.1.
The compliance monitoring of the project procurement requirements described in subsection 9.1.5 is carried out primarily through compliance monitoring audits. Read further details on this process here:
Compliance monitoring audit process
- Appendix A - Information request letter 1 (IR1) template - Initial notification of compliance monitoring audit and request for summary of project materials
- Appendix B - Summary of project materials template
- Appendix C - Information request letter 2 (IR2) template – request for TFO records
- Appendix D - Pre-audit conference meeting agenda
- Appendix E - Compliance monitoring audit query form template
Monitoring compliance with Section 501.2 of the ISO rules
Section 501.2 of the ISO rules describes obligations for the legal owners of critical facilities within Alberta's electricity industry. These obligations include the requirement for all critical facilities to have security measures in accordance with the Alberta Counter-Terrorism Crisis Management Plan (ACTCMP) as well as an emergency response plan in accordance with Directive 071 – Emergency Preparedness and Response Requirements for the Petroleum Industry (Directive 071), as published by the Alberta Energy Regulator.
Critical facilities within Alberta's electricity industry are named in the critical infrastructure list established under the ACTCMP and maintained confidentially by the Justice and Solicitor General branch of the Government of Alberta.

DVN tool for assisting participants with compliance obligations
To help maintain their own compliance with the ISO rules, market participants can use our optional dispatch variance notification (DVN) utility. This utility is embedded in our automated dispatch and messaging system (ADaMS). It can send out warnings to participants that may be of use in meeting certain obligations in the ISO rules. It's important to note that use of the DVN utility does not ensure that a market participant is compliant with ISO rules.

IoT stands for the internet of things. You may have heard a lot about IoT, but what it is, only a few people know. The term Internet of Things covers a vast array of information & is basically about an evolving network of connected objects/devices which can be used to transmute data via embedded sensors.
The list of items ranges from thermostats, lights, cars, and refrigerators among other things which can be connected to the IoT. I know it is hard to digest, but if there is an easy way of understanding things, it's by way of real world applications. Without further ado let us find out where and how IoT is utilized:
1. Smart Home
The most significant use is in the form of smart home. Why is that so? It is because smart home is readily available to consumers. Also, it is the most affordable platforms even when you make use of it on your academic writing help out there. The smart home comprises products such as Amazon Echo and the Nest Thermostat among hundreds of other products.
The USP of the smart home is that the consumers can speak and through voice recognition controls all the appliances around the house. This system has made the lives connected in more than one ways imaginable. It's only a matter of time before smart home becomes as common as smartphones.
Practical example:
As mentioned, Amazon Echo is one such product which packs the voice assistant called Alexa. Users interact with it and get the tasks at hand done. The tasks range from playing music to asking for a weather update or even calling an Uber.
2. Wearables
We all know that it was a long time ago when watches stopped telling time. Slight correction JUST stopped telling time. Watches such as the Apple Watch and other smart watches are more smartphone belt on our wrists from where you can access phone calls, texting, and so on so forth.
Fitbit and Jawbone are few of the popular devices that have made the world of fitness a force to be reckoned. They keep track of the data that goes in while working out. People can develop routines around it; whether to improve on the existing workout regimen or curtail exercise due to the fatigue factor.
Practical example:
Fitbit One helps you monitor how many steps you have taken, or steps climbed, the quality of sleep you have had and the calories you have burnt. There is a wealth of data and effortlessly syncs with your smartphones and computers. You can then convert this data into charts and graphs for better understanding.
3. Smart Cities
Smart cities! Yes, this is a real deal! How? With proper connection and stats availability, one can solve the most pertinent issues citizens of any city face. Not that it has been put to the test but it is claimed that the potential is enormous. With the help of IoT, you can address matters such as traffic congestion, eliminate crime in addition to, noise pollution and crime.
Practical example:
Let us explain with an example so that the concept sits well with you folks. Barcelona. Yes, Barcelona as many of you are aware that it is the city in Spain. But not every one of you is mindful of the fact that it happens to be a smart city as discussed previously. With IoT, they have incorporated smart parking and added to the overall wellness of the environment.
4. Connected Car
These are cars which are equipped with internet facility. The access to the web can be capitalized by others with whom it is shared. It is akin to a wireless network that you would connect to at your home or workplace. The trend is on the rise since more and more vehicles equipped with IoT are coming out in the market.
Practical example:
AT&T launched its connected car service which as of 2nd quarter of 2016 has added some 1.3 million vehicles to its share of providing IoT. The connected cars stood at 9.5 million, then. You can imagine where it must have jumped to by now. Certainly, it isn't slowing anytime soon. Moreover, drivers do not have to pay a monthly fee to be counted among the subscribers of this service.
In conclusion
Above are a few real world applications that have taken the world by storm. Do you think we missed out on some applications? Let us know in the comment box below.

So… Failure in the kitchen makes me horrifically sad. I nearly start to cry and Boyfriend always has to steal whatever I have deemed unacceptable away from me so I don't throw it out in a fit of anger. Most of the time these failures can be attributed to one of two things 1) I got sloppy and missed a step or 2) I was hurrying and just didn't wait properly. This failure falls into the didn't wait category.
When I got home from work and saw that I had missed a UPS package I immediately called them and asked the UPS office to hold it, in the distribution center down the street for pick-up the next day. Then I googled ice cream recipes for 10 hours, custard, sorbets, fro-yos, sorbettos, gelatos, you name it I was obsessively searching for it on google as a break in for my new Ice Cream Maker attachment for the KitchenAid (otherwise known as Esther). I found four to try and printed them out for later and trekked home in a downpour. Did you know there are 3 UPS buildings in a 1 block radius in Watertown? Neither did I. I had to go to all of them before finding my ice cream maker and heading home with it to freeze.
Now: Day 2 Ice Cream Maker is frozen and I can't find the Ice cream recipes I so carefully weeded through – ANYWHERE. They're gone the way of the cooler temperatures so I'll use the one from the KitchenAid book that came with it, it can't be that bad right? And you know in all fairness to the KitchenAid people – it probably wasn't, the custard base tasted fine and the berries were delicious (like a big kid slushpuppy glazed in Chambord). But I couldn't wait and poured the STILL STEAMING custard into the nicely frozen ice cream maker. Failure. SO.MUCH.FAILURE. I turned it on and went to watch 30Rock, nothing happened but some sweat peeing onto the counter. Sadness.
The next morning it was full of shard of ice – like it had melted and refrozen all wrong. The worst experience ever with ice cream. Maybe take two will be better? Keep your fingers crossed for me because those stillettos of ice were just not pleasant melting in my mouth. Not at all.
Custard Ice Cream with Mixed Berries
Note: I'm sure with patience I can actually make this ice cream. Now if I only knew where I had put that down.
Mixed Berry Mash
2 cups mixed berries, I used raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries
2 Tbs of your favorite liquor or brandy (I used Chambord and it tasted EXACTLY like a blue slush puppy)
Mix the berries together in a bowl with the liquor and mash them a bit with a masher so they're all about he same size and some of the juice has been a little pressed out.
Custard Ice Cream Base
2 1/2 cups half and half
8 Egg Yolks
1 cup sugar (I used 2/3 cup)
2 1/2 cups whipping cream
4 tsp Vanilla
1/8 tsp salt
In a saucepan heat the half and half to just bubbling – stirring often to keep it from scalding.
Mix the sugar and egg yolks together in a medium bowl stirring until they're thick and ribbony, about 2 minutes of mixing by hand. Mix in the half and half to the eggs and sugar slowly while continuing to stir to keep the eggs from scrambling. Stir the whole thing until it has set and is a light yellow color. Return the egg, sugar, and half and half mixture to the pan and bring to a second simmer stirring constantly until it starts to lightly bubble on the edges – DO NOT BOIL IT. Put the hot custard base back into your mixing bowl and gently stir in the vanilla, salt and cream. Cover and do what I was too impatient to do and CHILL IT. Watch a movie, have a nap, go to bed then make breakfast. AFTER cooling put the chilled custard in the bowl of your ice cream maker and follow the instructions. Add the mixed berries at the very very end just in the last two or three twirls of the ice cream maker. And there it is. I hope you have better luck than I did.

4 Flawless Bases
Whilst I can happily dabble in the world of more lightweight bases my heart will always truly lie with those that offer more medium to full coverage. I find that when I have a great base it ups my confidence ten fold and creates a solid foundation for any other makeup that I will apply. Having a base that offers up more coverage doesn't mean that it has to look caked on or heavy they can still look natural and feel lightweight on the skin and I've rounded up my favourites to share with you today.
CLINIQUE EVEN BETTER FOUNDATION: If this base had a better colour selection than it would be my number one base choice. It blends seamlessly into the skin and is pretty undetectable whilst still offering up a solid medium coverage. And it covers up the majority of imperfections without needing a lot of layers of product. Even without the use of a primer or any other correcting products it gives the skin a completely flawless finish and lasts incredibly well too even when the weather is seriously hot and humid.
CLAUDIA LOUCH HD FOUNDATION*: HD foundations aren't something that I'm all interested in because it's not something that I need in my everyday life. However HD qualities aside, this base melts into the skin, giving the complexion a completely perfected look whilst still looking incredibly fresh. The formulation is a little more difficult to work with as it's quite thick is consistency. But with just a little bit of extra effort and a good brush, it leaves a beautiful finish on the skin. It is a pricey base option so if you really want to treat yourself then it's perfect but there are cheaper alternatives out there.
YSL YOUTH LIBERATOR: For a long time, this was my all time favourite base even though it's ridiculously expensive it just works so well. It makes my skin look like how I wished it looked without the use of any foundation. It's so natural on the skin that it's barely detectable but can be built up with ease. As it's a gel consistency it's incredibly forgiving on dry skin but works just as well on oily complexions. As always with YSL foundations, they are fragranced so if that's not something that works for your skin then I wouldn't advise trying them.
MAKE UP FOREVER HD ULTRA FOUNDATION*: Another HD base option and this a lot different to all the other options listed here it's the only one that's more of a matte finish on the skin. I don't know how this compares to the original MUFE foundation but I can't imagine it's dramatically different [correct me if I'm wrong]. Even though this does settle down to more of a matte finish on the skin it doesn't suck all life away from the complexion or make the face look heavy, it's incredibly light and blends seamlessly. I'd definitely say this is a foundation for those with combination skin. As if your skin is incredibly dry I can imagine it wouldn't wear that well and if your skin is super oily it would probably just slip and slide away.
What are your favourite flawless bases?

SEO Friendly Site Structure
There are many ways to organize pages on a site. Unfortunately, some common techniques of organizing information can also harm your SEO strategy.
Sites organized by a hierarchy determined without reference to SEO might not be ideal because the site architecture is unlikely to emphasize links to information a searcher finds most relevant. An example would be burying high-value keyword pages deep within a sites structure, as opposed to hear the top, simply because those pages don't fit easily within a "home", "about us", contact" hierarchy.
In this article, we'll look at ways to align your site architecture with search visitor demand.
Start By Building A Lexicon
Optimal site architecture for SEO is architecture based around language visitors use. Begin with keyword research.
Before running a keyword mining tool, make a list of the top ten competitor sites that are currently ranking well in your niche and evaluate them in terms of language. What phrases are common? What questions are posed? What answers are given, and how are the answers phrased? What phrases/topics are given the most weighting? What phrases/topics are given the least weighting?
You'll start to notice patterns, but for more detailed analysis, dump the phrases and concepts into a spreadsheet, which will help you determine frequency.
Once you've discovered key concepts, phrases and themes, run them through a keyword research tool to find synonyms and the related concepts your competitors may have missed.
One useful, free tool that can group keyword concepts is the Google Adwords Editor. User the grouper function - described here in "How To Organize Keywords" to "generate common terms" option to automatically create keyword groupings.
Another is the Google Contextual Targeting Tool.
Look at your own site logs for past search activity. Trawl through related news sites, Facebook groups, industry publications and forums. Build up a lexicon of phrases that your target visitors use.
Then use visitor language as the basis of your site hierarchy.
Site Structure Based On Visitor Language
Group the main concepts and keywords into thematic units.
For example, a site about fruit might be broken down into key thematic units such as "apple", "pear", "orange", "banana" and so on.
Link each thematic unit down to sub themes i.e. for "oranges", the next theme could include links to pages such as "health benefits of oranges", "recipes using oranges", etc, depending on the specific terms you're targeting. In this way, you integrate keyword terms with your site architecture.
The product listing by category navigation down the left-hand side is likely based on keywords. If we click on, say, the "Medical Liability Insurance" link, we see a group of keyword-loaded navigation links that relate specifically to that category.
Neo Network Solutions LTD offers web design and search engine optimisation services for businesses in Mauritius.
Evidence Based Navigation
A site might be about "cape cod real estate". If I run this term through a keyword research tool, in this case Google Keywords, a few conceptual patterns present themselves i.e people search mainly by either geographic location i.e. Edgartown, Provincetown, Chatham, etc or accommodation type i.e. rentals, commercial, waterfront, etc.
Integrate Site Navigation Everywhere
Site navigation typically involves concepts such as "home", "about", "contact", "products" i.e. a few high-level tabs or buttons that separate information by function.
There's nothing wrong with this approach, but the navigation concept for SEO purposes can be significantly widened by playing to the webs core strengths. Tim Berners Lee placed links at the heart of the web as links were the means to navigate from one related document to another. Links are still the webs most common navigational tool.
"Navigational" links should appear throughout your copy. If people are reading your copy, and the topic is not quite what they want, they will either click back, or - if you've been paying close attention to previous visitor behaviour - will click on a link within your copy to another area of your site.
The body text on every page on your site is an opportunity to integrate specific, keyword-loaded navigation. As a bonus, this may encourage higher levels of click-thru, as opposed to click-back, pass link juice to sub-pages and ensure no page on your site is orphaned.
Using Site Architecture To Defeat Panda & Penguin
These two animals have a world of connotations, many of them unpleasant.
Update Panda was an update partly focused on user-experience. Google is likely using interaction metrics, and if Google isn't seeing what they deem to be positive visitor interaction, then your pages, or site, will likely take a hit.
What metrics are Google likely to be looking at? Bounce backs, for one. This is why relevance is critical. The more you know about your customers, and the more relevant link options you can give them to click deeper into your site, rather than click-back to the search results, the more likely you are to avoid being Panda-ized.
If you've got pages in your hierarchy that users don't consider to be particularly relevant, either beef them up or remove them.
Update Penguin was largely driven by anchor text. If you use similar anchor text keywords pointing to one page, Penquin is likely to cause you grief. This can even happen if you're mixing up keywords i.e. "cape cod houses", "cape cod real estate", "cape cod accommodation". That level of keyword diversity may have been acceptable in the past, but it's not now.
Make links specific, and link it to specific, unique pages. Get rid of duplicate, or near duplicate pages. Each page should be unique, not just in terms of keywords used, but in terms of concept.
In a post-Panda/Penquin world, webmasters must have razor-sharp focus on what information searchers find most relevant. Being close, but not quite what the visitor wanted, is an invitation for Google to sink you.

Search vendors get canonical on results
It's always a bit of a mystery to figure out if it matters whether or not you need to use 'www' in front of a domain name or not. That is www.example.com or just example.com.
Sometimes one will refer to the other and in some cases both will exist which can end up confusing search engines with duplication. Google, Yahoo and Microsoft have now teamed up for a new Search Engine standard that will provide a solution for the problem, properly referred to as a canonical domain (that is what section of the URL before the example.com). It's the new link rel="canonical" tag that can help to specify what should be indexed and how.
"When you use the tag, you can indicate the canonical URL form for crawlers to use for each page of content, no matter how it was retrieved," Priyank Garg Director Product Management
Yahoo! Search blogged. "This puts the preferred URL form with the content so that it is always available to the crawler, no matter which session id, link parameter, sort parameter, parameter order, or other source of variance is present in the URL form used to access the page."
Canonical links can also be extremely useful for sessionID tagged pages that are dynamically generated. Those types of pages tend to be difficult to index and often get a mod_rewrite (that is the webserver rewrites the address to something human readable) but it still leaves two (or more) potential addresses for the same content that a search engine could find.
According to Google's blog post on this issue:
The two URLs are nearly identical to each other, except that
Nelvana_Limited, the first URL, contains a brief message near its
heading. It's a good example of using this feature. With
rel="canonical", properties of the two URLs are consolidated in our
index and search results display wikia.com's intended version.
This is a really interesting development from my point of view that will both add complexity and simplicity to web developers' lives.
On the one hand, we've now got greater control than ever for search engine optimization of pages. On the other hand, this is yet another way to re-write URLs which makes overall site management even more complex than before. Instead of just having URLs and then maybe a few rewritten ones, now you've got to worry about natural URLs, rewritten URLs and then canonical ones. Then again a good Sitemap could really help out there too, keeping it all straight.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is an inflammatory joint disorder. It is the most common form of arthritis and frequently affects hands, knees, hips, and spine. As many as 90% of individuals over the age of 40 show degenerative changes on x-ray; however not all of these individuals have symptoms. OA can be localised to one or two joints or generalised to three or more joints.
Poor diet, obesity, sedentary lifestyle, insulin resistance and hypothyroidism are all amongst the risk factors for OA. For this reason, diet, weight and lifestyle will be addressed first and foremost when seeking treatment for OA at Sowelu. With that said, trauma on or near the joint and repetitive stressful use, accounts for a portion of cases and for this reason it is important to include anti-inflammatory herbs and nutrients to support regeneration of cartilage and joint tissue. The use of these supplements will decrease pain in as little as 3-6 weeks. However it is important to remember the speed and rate of pain reduction will depend on both the severity of symptoms at which you are experiencing and your own commitment to your health and the program.
Rheumatoid arthritis
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic systemic inflammatory auto-immune disease and because of this, your treatment plan for RA will address the immune system. Your treatment plan will include diet and lifestyle advice to reduce inflammation, reduce any excess weight, reduce stress and strengthen the gut after possible damage caused by steroidal and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications. It will also include high potency anti-inflammatory herbs. These assist in the reduction of the inflammatory mediators in RA, support in the day to day pain management and reduce long term progression of the disease. At Sowelu we use supplements that are a proven safe alternative to NSAID medication.
In addition to diet, lifestyle and herbal medicine recommendations, nutritional supplements to reduce pain and inflammation and support healthy connective tissue, joint, bone and cartilage formation may be prescribed. Your current state of health will determine the duration of treatment and the extent of your results, however when following this treatment plan, you should expect to see some pain relief in 3-6 weeks. The primary aim when treating RA is to slow the progression and reduce the duration and severity of flair ups.

16 September 2017 - The Art of Conservation
The Art Curator Gallery at Lourensford Estate has joined forces with The Cape Leopard Trust and esteemed international artist Fuz Caforio to host a fundraising event in support of the ongoing efforts to protect the Cape Leopard and conserve its ever-decreasing natural habitat.
The event details are as follows:
Date: 16 September 2017
Time: 17h30 for 18h00 – 21:00
Venue: Art Curator Gallery, Lourensford Wine Estate
Bookings: No entrance fee, RSVP by the 5th of September 2017.
In honour of Heritage month the Art Curator Gallery at Lourensford Wine Estate has joined forces with the Cape Leopard Trust and esteemed South African artist Fuz Caforio to host a fundraising event in support of the ongoing efforts to protect the Cape Leopard and conserve its ever decreasing natural habitat.
The fires that tore through the Helderberg mountains in early 2017 left in their wake immense destruction. It was clearer than ever that action needed to be taken to not only protect the indigenous flora and fauna of the area but the majestic large cats that call it home. And so the partnership between the Art Curator, Fuz Caforio and the Cape Leopard Trust was born.
This important collaboration's role is to raise awareness of South African conservation at a large scale, and aims to safeguard the future of our country's spectacular wildlife. What makes this project unique is how art is being used as a medium to inspire change and raise awareness.
Having dedicated half his life to painting and the past decade to studying large cats, Fuz Caforio's masterful artistry is the obvious choice for a fundraiser of this nature. His support of wildlife conservation dates back more than two decades and his passion to protect all large cats show through in the detail and way in which he captures the spirit of each animal he paints.
The fundraiser and auction, MC'ed by Global Adventurer Braam Malherbe, will take place on the 16th of September 2017 and will play host to Cape Town's conservationists, art-collectors and influencers, guests will be treated to a night of musical entertainment and enjoy a personal meet and greet with Fuz Caforio.
For those not attending the fundraising auction, the Art Curator Gallery will be holding a Fuz Caforio exhibition from the 16th of September to the 20th of October. Henry Taylor, owner of the Art Curator Gallery invites friends and guests to take part in The Art of Conservation project by visiting the exhibition, everyone is welcome to enjoy the majesty that this talented, local artist has created.
Fuz Caforio has created and donated a one-of-a-kind masterpiece that can be seen at the top of the article with an estimated value upwards of R90 000. All proceeds from the auction of this piece as well as other highly sought-after products and experiences will be donated to The Cape Leopard Trust. The aim is to raise a minimum of R400 000 for this great cause.
As the courteous venue sponsor of this event, Lourensford Wine Estate has created the Cape Leopard Wine Collection, available in Chardonnay and SMV range. This once-off collection will be available on the night and throughout the month of August and onwards; at the Art Curator Gallery. There are only 200 bottles each of red and white that have been masterfully created for this occasion.
The Art of Conservation is grateful to sponsors Jaguar Stellenbosch, Diamond Works, Royal Portfolio, Mont Rochelle, Three potters and a Painter, Lourensford Wine Estate and Erinvale Hotel for adding their support to such a crucial fundraising event. Their advocacy of South African wildlife conservation goes a long way.

1. The Diamond Works will be gifting the Art of Conservation with a gorgeous diamond and sapphire ring made from 18k white gold, set with a 1.92 carat sapphire round center stone and 33 diamonds totaling 0.165 carats.

Sorry but this item is currently unavailable.
Please check back at a later stage.
I am a new fan of shampoo bars for several reasons. The require little to no packaging, which means almost no waste! I'm very happy about this since so many empty shampoo bottles are wasted all the time, even when recycled. They are great for traveling since due to all the airline restrictions you're only allowed so many ounces of personal care items. Lastly, the lather is exceptionally great! Your hair will be soft, smooth, and have no build up. It feels squeaky clean after every wash.
This recipe contains a lot of castor oil, which creates a rich and foamy lather. Coconut oil and palm oil also provide a fluffy lather and add to the hardness of the bar. It contains shea butter and pro-vitamin B5 to add moisture to the hair.
Simply lather in your hands or lather the bar directly onto your hair and bubble away. Rinses very clean. Follow with your favorite conditioner afterwards.
**Side Note**
All natural shampoo bars are very different from store bought commercial shampoos because they contain only pure and natural ingredients with no sulfates, parabens, or preservatives. Commercial shampoos tend to leave "build up" on your hair so at the first several uses of using a shampoo bar, you may notice your hair has to acquire a period of adjustment.
Ingredients: Saponified Olive Oil. Sustainable Palm Oil, Coconut Oil, Castor Oil, Shea Butter, Argan Oil, DL-Panthenol (Pro-Vitamin B5), Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Lactate, Distilled Water, Lime Essential Oil, Grapefruit Essential Oil, Activated Charcoal (Colorant), Blue Ultramarine, Yellow Oxide,Titanium Dioxide.
*All natural ingredients, herbal colorants and/or molecularly nature identical micas. Only 100% pure essential oils, no Parabens, Preservatives, and SLS Free!
All of our soaps are handmade in small batches for quality and freshness. We use only the best all natural ingredients free of harmful or toxic ingredients. All the ingredients can be pronounced and are easy to understand. Variance in colors, cut and design can vary from batch to batch. For best results please keep your bar out of direct steams of water and place on a soap dish for longer use.

"Doing segway" is a sport, right? It's a thing with wheels. That's sports enough for me.
Anyway, World Wide Interweb's latest video of Segway fails is delightful, and a lengthy, illustrated example of why we should not create those Wall-E chairs that let us float around as fat people in space. Highlights include the girl in the banner image running into a wall and getting trapped under her own giant walking device, a bomb squad guy (?) faceplanting, and that horrible thing that happens where you try to catch your balance and end up crotching yourself on the handlebars.
Video is below.
I wasn't sure whether or not I should say mean things about the people in the compilation, but the YouTube comments helped me out a little by saying every mean thing imaginable. So if you feel bad about thinking that they are hilarious jerks, go right ahead, because somebody else said this:

FORT WORTH — The 31-year-old pastor of a southwest Fort Worth church was arrested Wednesday on accusations that he sexually assaulted a teenage girl in his church.
Jay Robinson, pastor of the Southwood Baptist Church, surrendered at the Tarrant County Jail Wednesday evening, jail officials said. Bail was set at $20,000.
The girl, who is now 18, told police that she and Robinson began a relationship when she was 16 that started with kissing and led to sexual touching. When she turned 17, they began having intercourse, she told police.
The sexual encounters took place at the church and at Robinson's home after he picked her up from school, she told investigators.
Robinson has been pastor of the church at 2633 Altamesa Blvd since October 2006, according to the church's Web site. About 450 people attend Sunday services, according to the Web site.
The Fort Worth Police Department's crimes against children unit began investigating the case in March after the girl's father called police.

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'Kenya' tag.
I had the pleasure of helping out on a talk given by Tole Nyatta a few days ago. Tole is a volunteer at Pamoja FM, a community radio station in Kibera, the largest slum in Nairobi. He's in Washington DC to receive a media leadership award from Internews Network.
Kibera was the site of a great deal of violence during the post-election conflict in January and February, and Pamoja played a large role in trying to maintain or restore peace in the neighborhood. Pamoja was profiled in the Christian Science Monitor in January; saying:
"We're doing news, but we don't incite people," says Mohammad Abubakr, a hip young volunteer who runs the midday reggae show, aimed at Kibera's youth. Normally, Mr. Abubakr's show covers topics such as the need to avoid drugs, gangs, and teen pregnancy, but since the political crisis, Pamoja has become a clearing house for the sort of basic information that people would need after a hurricane or other natural disaster.
"We don't tell them [who should be] president, and make them want to fight," says Abubakr. "We tell them the situation in Kibera, which shops are open, where there is food, where there is fuel, where they can buy airtime for their cellphones."
A good deal has been written on the role of the media in post-election violence in Kenya, with policy recommendations, as well as several projects to work with Kenyan media on conflict-sensitive journalism, how to report on conflict, and support for coverage of the National Accord and Reconcilation Act's implementation.
Internews conducted research and a ran a series of workshops around the country to "train[ ] journalists and presenters to constructively tell the stories of those affected by the violence in their struggle to restart their lives."
International Media Support produced several reports and policy recommendations, and also created a manual on conflict sensitive reporting for Kenya by Ross Howard.
The BBC Wold Service Trust produced a policy briefing on the role of media.
All three organizations present detailed and sophisticated recommendations focusing on strategic engagement with media on training, technical capacity, and the skills to cover conflict. They bemoan a reflexive attitude on the part of governments and some in the international community to restrict or ban speech in crises, and to compare incidents of possible hate speech and incitement with the Rwanda genocide. The BBC says:
Most donors and development actors have attached a low priority to media and media support issues in the context of development and particularly in fragile states. Neither funding nor research in this area have (with some exceptions) been considered significant strategic priorities. A generic and generally rhetorical commitment to the importance of a free media has sufficed.
The underlying reason for this is a perspective that liberalized media undermine fragile and weak states, and that speech freedoms and information access should in certain contexts be restricted in favor of support to the state. This notion implies that a non-liberal or authoritarian media system is somehow more desirable, and suggests that those media support a broadly unbiased public good. In reality, as in the Kenyan situation, such media are nearly always aligned with the party in power. The abstract idea of supporting a "state" in fact means support for the ruling faction. International support for the state is hence interpreted locally as support for the ruling power.
Such ideas also presume that a country's information space can still be controlled. Kenya, as with recent examples in Pakistan, Burma, and China, demonstrate that people simply turn to other communications technologies in the face of restrictions on media.
Based on Tole's experience at Pamoja, together with the above reports, here's a summary of some lessons on media and incitement in Kenya:
1) Banning of vernacular media is short-sighted.
The Kenyan government is considering a ban on vernacular radio stations, claiming they incited violence. However, the assumption that the media drive conflict is simplistic. Many vernacular stations sought to support peace, but were threatened by their community when they tried. Hate speech came from call-in programs and to a lesser extent, DJs – rather than from journalists. Reporting could be shallow or one-sided, but did not generally incite.
At Radio Lake Victoria for example, the station tried to program peace media. Crowds protested and forced journalists to support their movement, saying, 'you represent our community, so you need to represent our views. A call for peace is akin to a call for the validation of the elections.' One journalist told Tole, "If I don't represent them, then I'm gonna get lynched."
Lessons: Stations need:
- Ongoing relationships across ethnic, communal, political divides, and media social networks outside of identification community;
- Training for media in how to cover conflict, physical security.
2) Rwanda is not the automatic comparison point.
Attempts to use the experience of Rwanda as an excuse for censorship, vernacular language restrictions, or cutting off live programming ultimately will lead to new problems.
- Hate speech laws are often used to deny rights to minority groups – an excuse for repression. Selective enforcement is one element of this; biased government, another.
- Censorship of hate speech does not alter the fact of hatred – possibly it simply drives that hatred into other channels.
- Blaming speech for incitement while not addressing other aspects of discrimination and underlying issues that cause violence simply scapegoats the media. Security comes from dialogue, relationships with neighbors, and the resolution of underlying issues.
- In countries without functioning rule of law or weak judiciaries, hate speech laws are problematic because they can't be properly adjudicated.
3) The KBC approach – broadcasting feel-good stories that flatter the government – is short-sighted and even harmful.
KBC misstatements about the security of a given town resulted in some Kikuyu returning home, only to be slaughtered.
Lesson: Managing the message during an emergency can have unforeseen consequences – the idea that peace messages are solutions in every context is naïve if not given in the context of accurate information.
4) Local-global continuum.
The Kenyan government banned live broadcasting and aggressive coverage of the elections, and of violence. This was based on a narrow, national vision of media, whereby information space could be controlled. However:
- International broadcasters (BBC, CNN, Al Jazeera) showed more violence than local stations, upending the Kenyan stations' caution;
- Because of the ban, international programming couldn't be countered by more specific, up-to-date local perspectives, creating a rash of rumor and supposition;
- SMS messages and Internet provided avenues for information to race around the country, repeating what was seen on the international broadcasts, but with distortions and lack of clarity.
- National governments do not control information spaces; attempting control simply causes people to seek information elsewhere, on other networks.
5) Question of incitement and authority of media – new v. old.
There were numerous incidents of highly volatile messages sent via SMS texting and Internet. Tole's perspective on whether those messages resonated:
- With mass media, people tend to believe. They associate media with authority, facts, and information. However, relationship is from distant speaker to diffuse audiences and thus effects are difficult to identify.
- With SMS texting and email, people are more skeptical. They question the validity of the information. On the other hand, the contact is often personal, via friends and community networks, so there is a more direct kind of social pressure.
6) Digital Media.
Digital media are increasingly popular in Kenya. Seven million cell phone users and an active online community, with sites such as the blog aggregator Kenyaunlimited, or mashada.com. Both SMSs and blogs had a mix of peace messages and virulent speech. Mashada had to shut its forum the end of January due to the volume of nastiness.
Ushahidi.com was created to track conflict, verify events, create timelines, and provide space for dialogue. However, Tole says that Ushahidi was not well known among community media outlets. Such efforts are valuable but needs more outreach, awareness. As with international broadcasting, even services that reach a relatively small elite can have an effect, due to connectivity provided by cellular phone networks.
7) Truth and justice v. peace and reconciliation.
Journalism community describes their response to the crisis as a "failure" to uphold their watchdog role, and say attempts to calm the violence conflicts with their journalistic obligations. The IMS reports get into this in some detail.
Lessons: Journalists and media outlets are unprepared to report on mass violence in their own communities. They need:
- Editorial guidance and resources.
- Security (both training and resources).
- Long-term perspective on investigative journalism into underlying issues.

Master of puppies
Welcome to Master Of Puppies. A modern unique form of dog training that will teach lifetime skills to you and your canine.
Master Of Puppies is based on training methods from The Alpha Canine Group, which consists of core training principals. This training method can assist you to achieve an obedient and well-mannered canine, enabling them to handle everyday 'real life' situations. The foundations taught involve a fun and positive experience, for both you and your dog.
Master Of Puppies trainers have vast experience in the industry, having worked as professional MWD Military Working Dog handlers/trainers/instructors and have been trained by some of the worlds Leading Dog Trainers, including Bart Bellon and his NePoPo© method and Owner and Head Trainer of The Alpha Canine Group, Greg Fontana .
MOP trainers experiences have not only helped to develop our skills, they have enhanced our passion. This brought us to start our own, unique dog training business allowing us to do what we love on a daily basis. We personally practice these techniques on our own personal/demo dogs, who attend and helps demonstrate at each training session.

master of puppies' TestimonialS
Melissa Miles
I have two German Shepherds who I thought were well trained. However, after taking them to Master Of Puppies they are far more responsive and well behaved in all settings. I can put them in a drop step-away position and leave them there for over 1 hour. This is perfect when my nieces and nephews visit.
rowan king
My dog went from ZERO to HERO in only 4 weeks. Thanks Master Of Puppies and Head Trainer Meer, highly recommended. Standard Achieved!
luke shepherd
My dog Lexi was disobedient and had no household manners. But now with Master Of Puppies training she is well behaved and sits and plays cards with me every Friday night ha ha. Highly recommended, great training and very professional and experienced trainers.
sharon ryan
Excellent trainer, very passionate about dogs. Do you and your best friend a favour and check Master Of Puppies out. You won't be disappointed . Love Master Of Puppies dog training. Yeah!
Toni Paton
What an awesome professional trainer/dog handler and a Master in patience. My Staffies loved the training and I love their new found respect. I recommend Master Of Puppies and their training method to everyone.
bryce lightbody
Our Tibetan Mastiff, Freya, was extremely difficult to train. As with most of her breed, she is very protective and independent. Since she was a puppy we tried three different dog trainers but she was still very aggressive. She would lunge at people while out walking and had to be physically restrained if visitors came to our house.
After the first two training sessions with Master Of Puppies she became much more controlled and relaxed around strangers. By the end of the initial four sessions she walks perfectly, calmly lays down when we have groups of visitors at home and is generally much more responsive to our commands.
kirk foster
Master of Puppies... Say no more.
Their trainers are so incredibly passionate about all dogs, big and small. This shows in spades when you go to one of their classes and see how patient they are, how much they understands what your dog is thinking and how he/ she will interpret your commands.
Even after my first session my four month old hyper active German Shepherd was already taking on what he had been taught. He is now eight months old and very obedient.
I look forward to doing more Advance training with Master of Puppies and I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a true professional dog training method.
virginia vallee
Master Of Puppies was a blessing, our little guy Bear was terrible we couldn't walk him without having him pulling us all the way, he would not listen to basic commands. He has now become such a delight and we owe it all to Will at Master Of Puppies.
jo pert
After just four weeks it is amazing to see the transformation in our boy Loki. The training is so simple yet effective. When we first bought Loki home we quickly realised that unless his aggression issues improved, due to how many children there are within our immediate friend group, we may have to return him. Well, we are delighted to report that following Master Of Pupppies caring and effective training, we will be signing his adoptive papers this week! Thank you for giving us the tools we needed to let our boy shine for the beautiful and affectionate character that he really is!
Master Of Puppies, just wanted to let you know Molly and I had an awesome morning yesterday. First a women got out of her car and came over and said she just wanted to let me know that she had been watching Molly and I train over the last few weeks. She wanted to let me know how considerate and well behaved Molly has become. Also Molly was doing some training in the Drop position at distance at the local park when 3 dogs approached her. Molly just stayed in the drop position until I told her to break her position. Thank you so much she is a changed dog.

With increased stress, comes increased acne. As most of you well know, I'm a huge skin care advocate. To me, it's the most important part of any beauty routine {read about it here, here and here}. I still struggle with breakouts during times of high-pressure, i.e. 3 years of law school, and when Aunt Flo pays me a visit. Thankfully, I've discovered a few key ways to manage my adult acne and hormonal breakouts.
1) Always wash your face before bed. I know, I know...some nights you are just too exhausted to wash away the day's makeup; however, there are great alternatives for those types of evenings, such as Micellar water or makeup wipes. My go-to, one-step face wash is Purity, and I never go a day without it. This cleanser with remove every stitch of dirt and makeup, leaving you with a moisturized clean slate.
2) Immediately treat breakouts with spot treatments/full-face masks. I've fallen in love with Valentia skin care, and tested out their skin detox clay mask. This stuff is amazing! It can be used as a spot treatment or a full mask, and I've had great results both ways. It's far more gentle than the glamglow mud but is just as effective. I would highly recommend this for those with sensitive skin because it doesn't dry your face out, even after consecutive uses. I've become super passionate about this brand for many reasons (high-quality, organic, vegan, cruelty-free, made in USA, effective, gentle, affordable, available on Amazon prime), so I would encourage you to give them a follow on Facebook and Instagram.
3) Wash/rotate pillow cases weekly. As gross as this sounds, our pillow cases are full of dead skin cells. It's essential to wash or rotate your pillow case on a weekly basis. This tip also goes back to my recommendation of washing your face before bed. If you don't wash off your makeup, all of that nastiness is going to become embedded on your pillow case, and further promulgate bacteria and breakouts.
4) Use a daily makeup brush cleaner. Makeup brushes touch our faces on the daily. We utilize cosmetics to cover our imperfections, which usually encompass a breakout or two. I've seen a significant reduction in my acne (particularly on my cheeks) by cleansing my brushes with a daily cleaner. The one from Sephora is my absolute favorite. It's convenient to spray and dries very quickly. I've cleaned a face brush and used it again within 5-10 minutes. It's a must!
P.S. Here are a few pictures of my graduation! My dress and shoes were by Ted Baker. I would highly recommend going into a TB store rather than Nordstrom. There are amazing store-specific finds. I'll definitely be purchasing again for my bridal shower and other wedding activities. Oh, and I've started a wedding planning countdown to get me through the bar. August 1st marks our one year engagement anniversary, and we are finally going to start the planning process! Woo hoo!!
Have a fabulous Memorial Day Weekend! Thank you to all our service members!

Are you a gum gardener?06 March 2017 . Posted by Laurelyn in Tips and Tricks
Like noxious weeds, harmful germs grow along the gumline. And if you don't do a spot of gardening, they can be a real danger to your breath and gum health.
If you use an electric toothbrush with a round brush head, that's great because it will do all the work. The key to brushing well is to guide the brush slowly from tooth to tooth, following the contours of the tooth, curve of the gums and tipping slightly in-between the teeth.
So get rid of the weeds and your mouth will look and smell its best.
No smoke but plenty of heat27 February 2017 . Posted by Laurelyn in Tips and Tricks
E-cigarettes have intriguing flavours like pina colada and are a popular trend right now. But how harmful are they from a dental standpoint?
The devices are battery powered and heat liquids laced with nicotine which contacts the mouth at its hottest. This may result in dry mouth, dry cough, mouth ulcerations or even chemical burns.
And then there's the addictive nature of the nicotine, a vasoconstrictor which raises blood pressure.
Is it really worth a try?
Swish out your mouth20 February 2017 . Posted by Laurelyn in Tips and Tricks
Townsville's fluoridated tap water is the cheapest, easiest and tastiest mouthwash around.
Everyone knows that it prevents tooth decay by making the enamel more resistant to plaque acids.
But fluoride also has antibacterial properties which reduce plaque activity and plaque acid production.
So sip, swish for 1 minute around the mouth and between the teeth then swallow after meals, snacks and smoko.
Don't stop too soon13 February 2017 . Posted by Laurelyn in Tips and Tricks
Kids may be at risk for tooth decay due to inadequate parental supervision, according to a UK health organization.
While risks from sugary foods and drinks are well-known, the lack of brushing supervision is also seen as a risk factor.
Brushing your child's teeth twice a day from an early age is an effective way for parents to reduce the risk of cavities.
And even after the age of seven, it's wise for parents to check on kids to ensure they do it correctly and for 2 minutes.
Can't get kids to brush?06 February 2017 . Posted by Laurelyn in Tips and Tricks
Brushing twice a day for 2 minutes is recommended by dental professionals.
Now there's a new toothpaste to motivate youngsters to do just that. Colgate Total Proof is a germ-fighting toothpaste that's a little different.
The white paste turns to a blue foam, reaching its maximum colour at 2 minutes. It motivates kids to brush longer and helps parents see if it's long enough.
Check it out. It's at chemists, supermarkets and online.
Protect your vision30 January 2017 . Posted by Laurelyn in Tips and Tricks
Some interesting links have emerged between the mouth and the eyes.
A study of 8,208 adults determined that gum disease is associated with those who have age-related macular degeneration and are aged 60 years or younger.
Another study suggests that gum disease is linked to a risk for open angle glaucoma.
As research continues, it's best to have regular dental check-ups and take care of your mouth to protect your vision.

Main Street Typography
With all things, I find I get better results when I have a theme or goal to focus on. Here's a few shots from a recent photowalk I did with a friend in Vancouver's Main Street area. My friend smartly suggested we focus on typography. I love the mixture and retro feel of some of these typefaces. I wish I knew the names. Anyone? Can you guess the locations?

Freedom of the Press
You are here
2007 Scores
Press Status
Press Freedom Score (0 = best, 100 = worst)
Legal Environment(0 = best, 30 = worst)
Political Environment(0 = best, 40 = worst)
Economic Environment(0 = best, 30 = worst)
Press freedom is generally respected in Israel, and the country features a vibrant media landscape. Journalists are occasionally subject to official restrictions, but an independent judiciary and an active civil society adequately protect the free media. Hate speech and publishing praise of violence are prohibited, and the 1948 Prevention of Terrorism Ordinance prohibits expressions of support for terrorist organizations or groups that call for the destruction of Israel. In 2004, the Supreme Court denied a government appeal seeking to uphold a ban on granting press credentials to Palestinians. Israel's Government Press Office (GPO) had earlier ceased issuing press cards to Palestinians on security grounds, claiming that some Palestinians posing as journalists used the cards to enter Israel and carry out or abet terrorist attacks. Israeli press freedom organizations have since accused the GPO of continuing to restrict press credentials for Palestinians.
While newspaper and magazine articles on security matters are subject to a military censor, the scope of permissible reporting is wide and there is a broad range of published material. Editors may appeal a censorship decision to a three-member tribunal that includes two civilians, and publications cannot be shuttered because of censorship violations. Arabic-language publications are censored more frequently than those in Hebrew, and Arab-Israeli journalists are subject to greater restrictions than their Jewish counterparts. In 2005, the daily Haaretz, Channel 2 television station, and British Broadcasting Corporation News were made to apologize to the government for failing to submit for review stories containing "sensitive" information. In July 2006, Al-Jazeera reporters Walid Al-Omari and Elias Karram were detained briefly by Israeli security forces while covering Hezbollah rocket attacks in northern Israel; Israeli officials claimed that the reporters were assisting Hezbollah by revealing the locations of rocket hits. The 2004 release of Mordechai Vanunu, an Israeli citizen imprisoned for 18 years for espionage and disclosing information about Israel's nuclear weapons program, was conditioned on a series of restrictions on his speech and movement; these restrictions have been condemned by the International Federation of Journalists.
A wide variety of newspapers, reflecting a broad range of political viewpoints and religious outlooks, is available in Israel. All newspapers are privately owned and freely criticize government policy. Newspapers must be licensed by the locality in which they are published. A diverse selection of broadcast media is also available. The Israel Broadcasting Authority operates public radio and television services, including the popular Kol Israel radio station. There are also commercial television networks and radio stations, and most Israelis subscribe to cable or satellite television. Internet access is widespread and available to approximately 50 percent of the population, and it is not restricted by the government.
[This rating and report reflect the state of press freedom within Israel proper, not in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, which are covered in the report on the Israeli-Occupied Territories and Palestinian Authority.]

January of 2011 my little Dragon Rider started at a Pre-School that I went to when I was his age. I thought it would be good for him to go to the schools I went to because I turned out just fine!
So we enrolled to a local Pre-School and started our new lifestyle of routine and daily schooling. In the beginning the school seemed great but Little Dragon Rider did not seem to be making friends or fitting in very well. The teacher he had was constantly putting him down and telling me "there's something wrong" with my child. We went for assessments and testing(requested by the School) and found nothing "wrong"! We handed the teacher the report from the assessor thinking that would be the end of that!! A few weeks went by and suddenly i was being handed documentation on ADD and ADHD with comments like "I thought you may be Interested in reading this" or "This is a very interesting article you might like"… thick documents on ADD and ADHD, Nutrition and Feeding of ADD and ADHD children!!WTF???? Read the bloody reports woman… what part of there is NOTHING WRONG with my child do you not get???
To cut a really long story short, we lasted until the beginning of the 3rd term when I walked into class on a Friday afternoon to be confronted in-front of another Parent and other children by a shouting teacher saying "I have no idea what got into him today but I can't cope with it anymore!" I was completely distraught, called AF who told me to get our Little boy out of there. We went to school again on Tuesday after doing inquiries at various other schools and setting up appointments.I gave a class mate a lift to school and whilst driving to school I was informed by a 5yr old little girl "I think you need to take him out of school until he can learn to be less irritating and learn to listen properly!" OMG…really???
Wednesday we went to view a new school and Friday my Little Dragon Rider had his first trial day at the new school! He came home happy, singing and talking about his "NEW BEST FRIEND" The weekend went well, no fighting or shouting, Monday and Tuesday came and went with a breeze and his "3 Day Trial" was over. I met with the staff at the school who gave me awesome feedback and it was decided that we would start school on the Thursday. My Little Dragon Rider has been there ever since and it was the best choice I as a mother could ever have made. The change in behaviour, attitude and manners are Phenomenal and it has made this little venture worth every penny in the world. I cannot describe how awesome it has been to find a school that focuses on the complete needs of my child… Selling my Soul would never compare to Choice I have made!!
Love and Light
