text: Unashamedly anachronistic, Ireland's rockabilly queen lets her fourth album pick up where her breakthrough third album, Mayhem, left off in 2010. Or, if you prefer, where Eddie Cochran left off half a century earlier. Aside from a passing reference to eBay on Round the Bend, (and perhaps the novelty of a woman singing this sort of material) there's little here that would surprise a 1960 rock'n'roller. That's not a criticism, because May's an engaging and entertaining storyteller on the more breakneck material, particularly the dynamic Wild Woman and the melodically astute Hellfire Club. The ballads, however, are less distinguished, with Little Pixie in particular more delicate than memorable.

Tuesday morning, I hauled out of bed at 5 AM. I went down to have breakfast with Cara at college.
A while back, Cara, in keeping with her RA position, had dealt with a very angry boy. Her intent was to calm him down before allowing him to walk back out into the hall. His rage had made her fearful for her girls. She ended up soothing a very detailed confession right out of a rapist. The trial was to be Tuesday. The boy is no longer at the college, but the college has been very careful about assuring Cara's safety. The police were escorting her to the courthouse.
I knew that she would be a little stressed, even though she is one of the most unflappable kids you'd ever want to know. We had a long leisurely breakfast and talked. We walked around campus, and it pleased me to see her striding confidently. She has 29 girls under her care, and they call her 'Mom'. She is popular and confident. She is smart. Level headed. This tiny little thing comes only up to my nose (...and I, myself, am considered short...) but she is fearless.
Driving home, I realized (again) that Cara is grown up now. She no longer needs me. But there was an e-mail waiting for me. It meant a lot to her that I had driven all the way down to be with her, she said. She loves college and was glad to have a chance to show me 'her world'.
It made me cry a little. She is grown up. She doesn't need me. But she still wants me around.
...And the feeling is mutual.
PS: The trial was postponed. Cara wailed about the classes she had missed, a big oral presentation, etc. "I know, I know," I said, "rapists are just so self centered and inconsiderate..."

Cool girl, that Cara. And, yep, court dates often get postponed. Maybe he will plea and that will be the end of it. Even so, she will still have at least one more appearance.

Oh - what a lovely post to counter mine (at the other end(ish) of the growing up timeline). It gives me hope that Violet and I will continue to be good buddies. And that matters a lot.

I discovered them on reddit and it was the worst thought I ever had, to order from them.

Keep away from this firm.
I do not imply to offend, but I just finished two 10 web page papers for my degree this weekend, and it pisses me off that my classmates may get the same grade by paying ~$300. You may trip the 'it is moral' train all you'd like, however there's nothing moral about this service, it particularly essaypro caters to school students who do not need to actually put within the work, and contributes to the reality that a good portion of school graduates lately can barely hold an intelligent dialog.

Do you ever find yourself in a position where you are having to make a fresh beginning but that really wasn't your intention? Sometimes whether we choose to or not a fresh start or new beginning is staring down at us and we are left with little choice but to either take that first step or stand frozen in uncertainty. This blog. This fresh start, although not my intention to begin again is my new beginning. My first step and it begins here.
I had a website and a blog. One that I was proud of. One that I worked extremely hard to create and pave a way in unfamiliar territory but I let it go. Why? I find myself here asking the same question. If I would have paid the hosting bill last august or even the bill with the penalty fees in November I would still have that beautiful blog and website with all my work, all my photography posts displayed beautifully for visitors to see. But its gone. I did not pay the bill nor the penalty fees so my blog and website disappeared into the world-wide web abyss as I call it. All the posts and images I so diligently loaded and posted to share with the world are gone. I was informed yesterday that I would be unable to retrieve that work and I would in fact need to begin again. I felt an ache in my heart at the thought of all the work gone. It took me months to create it and hours upon hours of work after its debut to keep it up and running. Gone. But I allowed it to happen. Why?
I have been asking myself this question and have come up with multiple answers but there is only one at the root of it all. I am addicted to approval. I need affirmation and encouragement and a cheer section to continue with anything that is challenging. That's the bottom line. I have found it difficult to walk in confidence and be able to affirm myself. Even more I have elevated the approval and opinions of others over Gods opinion of myself, my walk, my dreams, desires and destiny for far to long.
So today, I begin again. Uncertain of what the future holds. Uncertain of how this blog and website will look or where it will lead. But today I am confident of only one thing. That I am to take a step. I am to write. I am to share my story. I am to live a life of honesty and truth and reveal to the world what is behind the smile.

Campaign Against Climate Change (Scotland)
Campaign Against Climate Change (Scotland)
Please come along on Saturday, 16th September to take part in the National Day of Action.
We will be meeting at 1pm outside Marks and Spencer in Aberdeen to raise awareness of climate chaos and the need to act now, and to let people know about the national climate change march in London, 4th November. There will be coaches from Scotland and we can book places for people from Aberdeen.
On Saturday, five of us will be dressing up in 'extreme weather gear', to show the different faces of climate chaos: Parched and sunburnt (droughts and heatwaves), drenched (heavy rain), diving gear (flooding from rising seas), battling storms.
We need as many people as possible to hold a banner and placards, help with a stall and leaflet!

Bananas are very slowly but surely taking over my Instagram feed. Not even maddddd. Two big, yummy protein crepes filled with sliced banana & topped with a chocolate peanut butter drizzle (sweet spreads brand PB & sweet, it's like ) and sugar free chocolate. Maybe I should actually be concerned over the percentage of my meals that are made up of bananas + PB though. Mmmm nah.
I feel that I need to apologize for my lack of involvement on my blog. Life's been a little crazy. Mostly in regards to my last blog post 1) the main reason – I'm going through a long-term relationship break up, I just moved houses, and I'm taking care of a new 3 month old puppy. So I'm pretty busy. But also 2) I'm working on my next ebook to come out in October! Since most of my recipe development is going towards that, I don't have many recipes to share on Instagram and here.
Sooo yeah. The pup is getting better. He has learned to be quiet in his crate at night. He doesn't warn me when he needs to go to the bathroom though…and instead cries after he's had an accident in his crate. We'll figure it out though. It's a process. As for the move, I'm pretty settled into this house! It's about an hour from where I was before. In a month though, I move across the country to Washington state, live there for a month, then change houses one final time. Jeeeez. It's gonna be some crazy months but I'm up for it. I can't lie and say the breakup is easy… It's hard. It's especially hard learning to be self sufficient after being in a relationship for 5.5 years… A lot of loneliness and Netflix is involved. Netflix recommendations are much welcome.
Serves: 1
- 1 scoop vanilla quest nutrition protein powder
- 3/4 cup liquid egg whites
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 stevia packet
Blend all of your ingredients together!! Spray a larrrrge pan with nonstick spray – pour HALF the batter in. Cook on a low heat until the edges turn up slightly, flip, and cook another 1-2 mins. Repeat for the remaining half of the batter. 2 CREPEYS. They're yours. Eat them.

Another survey? Really? Is there someone listening or am I talking to a bot?
Are these the kinds of questions you have asked yourself before?
Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Mel and I am one of the User Experience Designers working for you at Envato. I work with Gabi, also one of the User Experience Designers in the team who you may have already seen around the Envato Forums.
I am here today to tell you more about what we've been working on and what we are planning for you.. and we have heaps of plans!
If like me, the majority of your emails are from newsletter subscriptions (half of which you don't even remember signing up to), it can be hard to notice the emails that are really important amongst the endless spam. You may feel overwhelmed looking at your inbox at times and perhaps you almost missed this post because you've already filtered all the subscriptions into a folder (I don't blame you!).
On top of all of this, we (the UX team) are not making it any easier! You may have noticed an influx of feedback requests popping up all over the place! You're in the middle of uploading an item and then "Hello! Can I interrupt? Oops, already interrupted. Can we have some feedback on your experience?.."
We really get it. It might not be what you want to do in that particular moment.
At the moment, Gabi and I are working on getting an overall sense of what's working well and what's a bit more frustrating in your experience as an author, so we can support the teams to make improvements in the areas that need it most.
However, have you ever heard of spamming for a greater good? (You probably haven't as I just made it up), but I want to tell you why these pop-ups are important and how you can see these as good spam.
We've created a series of pop-up feedback requests in different areas of the platform, so we can understand what to dive further into. This may mean asking some of you to participate in an interview where we may watch you upload an item or this may be all about how we can make one of our reports a bit more user-friendly.
Whatever it is, this is your opportunity to tell us why something is good or bad – as an author, you have the power to help influence this change for the better.
We want to further understand your needs so that we can work with the teams on the improvements that really matter and that will move the needle for you.
So, although right now, it may be annoying – I promise that as the responses build up, the pop-ups will slow down and the only spam you will need to worry about, is the one in your sandwich! So if you see one of those pop-ups on a screen, take a minute to tell us what your experience has been.
Are you wondering what's coming up next?
We will be sharing our upcoming plans in our new monthly series – Inside UX, keeping you updated with all the latest work we are doing and planning to do based on your important feedback. Keep an eye out next month!
Keen to help but not sure how? Volunteer to be one of our beta users and we will get in touch as soon as there are more research opportunities!
Just click here and drop your name.

There is a certain trendy objection to transubstantiation that goes like this:
"Of course, I believe in the Real Presence. But 'transubstantiation' is a very abstract term that would limit the Real Presence to a specific, Aristotelian philosophy. Why must we pry into mysteries and define the 'how' of the Real Presence? When it comes to the Real Presence, there's more that unites Catholics with the Eastern Orthodox, Anglicans, and Lutherans than what divides us."
This is very seductive, specious nonsense. Let me reduce this objection: the Church should not define the 'how' of a dogma using terms that are specific to this or that philosophical school. Transubstantiation depends on an Aristotelian distinction between substance and accidents, and therefore is too specific and limiting.
We can reject this very easily:
1.) Were the Fathers of the Council of Nicea wrong to define the "how" of the Trinity using very specific terms (homoousios, *not* homoiousios)? Their definition depended on a philosophical distinction between substance and person.
2.) Were the Fathers of the Council of Chalcedon wrong to define the "how" of the Incarnation using very specific terms for person and nature?
If the Church can bind us to dogmatic definitions on the Trinity and the Incarnation that depend on specific philosophical distinctions (substance vs. person; person vs. nature), then the Church can bind us to a dogmatic definition on the Eucharist that depends on a specific philosophical distinction (substance vs. accident). The mystery of the Real Presence is the mystery of transubstantiation. It is no less a mystery for being defined in precise terms.
Those who object find themselves on the side of Arius and the anti-Chalcedonians, disputing the Faith that Christ entrusted to His Church. Anathemata sint.

Tinie Tempah started rapping on £20 microphone
- Bang Showbiz
- 12 April 2017
Tinie Tempah has revealed his rapping career started with a bargain microphone from PC World at the age of 12
Tinie Tempah's first ever raps were recorded on a £20 microphone from PC World.
The 'Pass Out' hitmaker has opened up about his humble start in life and how he has had to graft his way to becoming a star, which is something he has put across in his forthcoming LP 'Youth', which is packed with songs about his "emotional" journey to the top.
He revealed how the cheap recording device from the British computer store was the only thing he could afford to make music.
He said: "A lot of people see it [his career] as glitz and glamour but this has by no means been easy at all. I grew up in Peckham, I got a £20 microphone from PC World and started recording my first raps when I was 12 or 13.
"We didn't really have anything there weren't that many prospects or hopes.
"There were hardly any British rappers we could look at. I've put in a lot of graft."
One way Tinie got inspiration for his first record in four years - the follow-up to 2013's 'Demonstration' - was by allowing strangers to use his studio in Greenwich, London.
The 28-year-old rapper's record is full of collaborations with people as a result of making his studio an open house for artists at all levels.
He told the Metro newspaper: "One of the first things I did was to open my studio and let all sorts of different people come in - not necessarily to be connected to be me but just to use it. As a result you have that awkward encounter, you go and make tea and, before you know it, you're talking to someone you probably wouldn't have otherwise."
Now Tinie lives in an East London home that once belonged to the late fashion designer Alexander McQueen - who died in 2010 - which is full of stuffed animals, which he recently said helped with his creativity for 'Youth'.
He said: "The giraffe was already there, but I bought a zebra, which is my favourite animal, so that the giraffe could have a friend in the house.
"I'm not going to lie because I get some weird vibes in there, but it's positive and I think it's added and contributed to my creativity."

1/3 of my life8
April 11, 2012 by jooshanoosh
One of the major sources of conflict in my marriage, and I'm not pretending we don't have a few, is my snoring. I'm not a particularly overweight man, and I'm not a drunk; my snoring is purely genetic. I inherited it from a long line of Norwegian immigrants, and before that, Norwegian fishmongers, and before that, trolls. But for reals, you guys, I snore like a battleship. I rumble the walls. Sawing logs is an understatement; I saw redwoods. Sometimes I actually wake myself up with my snoring. I'll be trying to sleep and I'll hear this monotonous, repetitive snarling and I'll be so irritated. Then I'll realize that it's me. And I'll wake up, furious with myself for keeping myself awake. Imagine how my wife feels.
She has been patient over the years, or more accurately, "patient." She hasn't divorced me, is what I mean. Even though she has grounds for it. She hasn't slept in seventeen years. She has figured out special commands to get me to stop snoring, most of which moderately work:
1. "Stop. Snoring."
2. "Turn over."
3. "Open your mouth."
4. "I hate you."
Any one of these does the trick, and particularly number five. But it's a brief respite; she gets about 5 minutes before I'm off again like a farty pig. I feel bad for her. I'm not making fun. But there is honestly nothing I can do about it. I've tried everything, including turning over, opening my mouth, and "stop. snoring." But nothing works. Until recently.
Like many of you, I have seen commercials for those Breathe Right strips on TV and felt a blend of hope and skepticism. How can a little piece of modified tape cure my snoring? I mean, I was happy to try it. But would it really work? And would it irreparably widen my nose? The people in the commercial seemed so attractive and well rested. Could that be me? I thought I would give it a shot, so I drove out to Walgreens and picked up a box.
That night, I carefully blew into a kleenex and scrubbed the bridge of my nose down, per the instructions on the box. Then I methodically peeled back the protective backing of the Breathe Right strip and affixed it to my nose, just like the picture showed me to. Immediately, I felt a new sense of air flow and a cool rush of breeze. Interesting! Is this what I had been missing all my life? Breathing? Is this what other people feel? Could I finally paint with all the colors of the wind? I'm happy to report that I slept soundly that night, and in the morning Lisa texted me and said she had "slept like a baby!" I was thrilled. Problem solved! Kind of.
I have used these strips now for three weeks, and turns out I'm still snoring. It's not as much, but with my nasal cavities, where there's a will there's a way. Last night I got the classic "open your mouth!" and a few nights ago I got "CHRISTOPHER." So I know it's still going on. Lisa has been kind not to mention it. But I know. Do you think it's possible that I have a deviated septum? Celebrities seem to get those all the time. I feel like I should go see a doctor, but I hate going to the doctor because I'm always positive he's going to tell me I have the bird flu or some other disease du jour that has nothing to do with my snoring. I could get tested for sleep apnea, which is a thing, but then they make you wear a mask that reminds me of this:
I guess maybe that's what it comes down to, though, that horrible mask. I don't know. I'll try it. I'll try anything. My wife is a remarkably attractive woman and I hate to think that my snoring is getting in the way of her beauty rest. So, if you guys have any tips, please pass them along! And DON'T recommend those Breathe Right strips, because, as I've been saying, I tried them. With moderate success AT BEST.
8 thoughts on "1/3 of my life"
Ben has started snoring, and if I "gently" nudge him or kick him, it usually subsides long enough for me to fall back asleep. He still doesn't believe me that he snores. I told him I'm going to record it one of these nights…
Just go to the sleep specialist and have the diagnostic test. If you have sleep apnea, it's effecting a lot more than your wife's sleep. It impacts your dental health, your heart health and can lead to diabetes. Unlike the old whole head, man in the iron mask devices, there are a variety of masks/appliances you can use on a cpap now. They'll help you find one that you are comfortable with. I've been using a cpap for about five years now and it's made a huge difference in the quality of my sleep – (and I think eventually your wife will forgive you.)
You could try the "Vital Sleep stop snoring mouthpiece" advertised over there on the sidebar… I have a fan in the room. Scott snores like a monster and the white noise makes it so I'm not laying in bed thinking of kitchen knives and how to eviscerate him. He refuses to do the cpap thing which is unfortunate because snoring (and sleep apnea which he claims not to have) can cause a ton of health problems.
Unfortunately, the Sleep Study (can't wait to hear you write about this fun adventure — lots o' fodder) and the resulting CPAP machine may be your best and only solution. In agreement with Mr. Davenport up there, I was diagnosed with mild Sleep Apnea nigh on a decade ago. The mask and machine were uncomfortable. So I stopped using it, thinking, "It's only a MILD case."Ten years later, I now have SEVERE Sleep Apnea. I have gained a couple of stones, developed high blood pressure and Type II Diabetes along with all the fun that it brings. You don't want that. Get the CPAP and live a healthy, long life. Your wife and kids will thank you. 😉
My sister always snored – a gentle little, ladylike snore, but we would tease her about it, because we were vicious mean siblings (or normal). When she joined the Army, she got surgery, since she had a deviated septum, and they paid for it. Now she's still a little breathy, but it's not as bad. So if you have good insurance, and a deviated septum, at least you wouldn't need a mask the rest of your life.
Your story is word for word (except for the Christopher part- insert Wesley instead) the story of our long, long struggle with my husbands snoring problem. We have tried everything short of a sleep study. I cannot tell you the seething anger I feel when I cannot fall asleep because of the awful snoring sounds coming from my loving man sleeping right next to me. I've actually recorded it because I have a need for him to hear just how awful it is. Wow, I'm getting all worked up just writing about this.What has worked best for him is acupuncture. I don't know why or how it works, but it has for him, and thank goodness! It is not a complete cure, but the difference it has made has been huge, for him and for me. He needs to go in for a "touch up" ever so often. Totally worth it.Good luck and best wishes for some resolution soon.
All I want for our 17th Wedding Anniversary is a #@(*&# CPAP!!!
All I can say is you will feel like a new person if you in fact have sleep apnea. My husband was diagnosed about 7 years ago and I swear it prevented death or divorce! He is severe and after getting the mask his tacicardia subsided and his once pleasant personality returned! Exhaustion makes you mean and messes with your health and I love the white noise from the machine!! Good Luck!

Royal Society selects Southampton invention for Royal visitor
The Royal Society selected the University of Southampton's StarStream technology as one of three inventions it presented to HRH Prince Andrew at its recent Labs to Riches event, a celebration which marked the start of the Royal Society's Year of Science and Industry.
Professor Tim Leighton from the Institute of Sound and Vibration Research and Dr Peter Birkin from Chemistry, co-inventors of the StarStream technology, were invited to demonstrate their device, which enhances the ability of water to clean.
The team have developed an ultrasonic cleaning nozzle that generates ultrasound and bubbles. These travel down a stream of water from the nozzle, dramatically improving the cleaning power of water with reduced additives and heating.
StarStream's ability to clean with cold water reduces power bills. The reduction in additives means less trouble in purifying the water run-off, less risk of contaminating water supplies, and the option to use StarStream water to clean items where traditional surfactants are unwelcome. Reduced spray and aerosol also means less airborne secondary contamination.
The StarStream technology recently won the 2012 Institute of Chemical Engineering Award for "Water Management and Supply", and previously won the Royal Society's 2011 Brian Mercer award for innovation (click here for video).
Professor Leighton says: "We are very honoured that the Royal Society chose our invention to show His Royal Highness at this event, and are pleased that the first year of work on the Brian Mercer Innovation Award has been so successful at advancing the technology."
The StarStream technology has received significant interest from a range of companies looking for novel cleaning solutions in consumer, medical and industrial cleaning applications. The use of StarStream in a given application can reduce the volume of water used by a factor of 5 or more, an important saving since the cost of treating 1 m3 of water after it has be used for nuclear decontamination is around £10,000.
Ultrawave Ltd. is building devices using the technology for manufacturing industries (see their video here). The Southampton team is collaborating with Philips with regards to consumer product applications, and Philips has funded the development of a prototype. Southampton is actively collaborating with Sellafield Ltd. who has funded the development of a prototype, while the Tate Gallery has also tested the ability of StarStream for cleaning artwork.
Dr Birkin adds: "We very much look forward to working with Ultrawave and other companies in what will undoubtedly be an exciting year for this invention."
This year, a number of groups across diverse Faculties will be supplied with StarStream devices to explore their applications in research labs.

Recently our chefs and managers from Bartmann restaurants (including the Tiny Diner) went to the rural plot at Garden Farme to take a tour and help with harvest. In the past we have created on-the-farm events to connect chefs directly to the farm from which they order produce. This is one of the most powerful ways to increase local purchasing and to educate the whole restaurant staff on organic farm philosophies and real-world applications. This year was the most successful event so far given the quality of interactions, produce and high number of staff who attended (20+ people).
It was a true Minnesota summer day with tons of humidity, sun, and horseflies. The conditions were easy to ignore, however, because the garden treats and information were refreshing. Tony Root (Rural Farm Manager) and Koby Hagen (TD Farm, Garden and Market Adviser) walked the chefs through bountiful rows in the upper garden. They highlighted the intense polyculture plantings, mulching for soil building, and the various crops that are in season. Summer squashes and cherry tomatoes were just starting to ripen, and peas and scallions were bountiful.
After the tour, everyone got their hands a dirty clean by picking fresh peas and turnips for delivery. Each person partnered up with another and picked 10+ rows of peas. After the morning harvest was finished, we gathered on the picnic table lawn and had a BBQ lunch together. We reflected on our experiences and connections to the garden, to fresh food and to each other. It was a very meaningful and lasting experience for all. Connections like this are what we hope to recreate at all of our establishments to encourage healthy community building over delicious food, honest work and good company.
We hope to have another chef reunion at the farm in September, where even more people will be able to experience the power of food and farming, and the beauty of Garden Farme.

The project I'm involved with needs to establish around 2500 simultaneous ipsec connections between roadwarriors clients and the ipsec concentrator/gateway.
In order to be able to estimate the appropriate hardware solution I'd like to be able to calculate the amount of processing power needed to sustain the moment of a surge in computation (like when all clients are connected and the concentrators' link goes down and when it comes back it gets flooded by all 2500 client attempting reconnects).
What would it take for example to carry 2500 simultaneous initiating ipsec connections using aes-256,sha512 and dh group 21 or 24 (as advised on https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/12276506/diffie-hellman-groups)?
The clients won't be generating more than few packets/s once connected (less than 10, for sure)
I've been lookin at this similar question but I'm still confused.

Louis Vuitton's Cruise 2020 show will take place in a 1960s New York airport
- Louis Vuitton's new collection set to debut in JFK Airport's recently revamped TWA Flight Center
- The show will be held on May 8, 2019
- The mid-century modern building has been closed since 2001 and it will open to the public on May 15
- The building is a 200,000-square-foot futuristic structure, that has a wing-shaped roof and tall glass windows designed by Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen and originally opened its doors in 1962
Nicolas Ghesquière is taking Louis Vuitton to New York City's John F. Kennedy Airport this season.
The fashion house's Resort 2020 show will take place in the soon-to-be reopened TWA Flight Center, a 200,000-square-foot structure that features a wing-shaped roof and tall glass windows designed by Finnish-American architect Eero Saarinen. The building was first opened in 1962.
After shutting down in 2001, the building will reopen to the public almost 20 years later on May 15, 2019, a week after the Louis Vuitton collection debuts.
The building was designated a New York City landmark in 1994 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places and the New York Register of Historic Places in 2005, the TWA Flight Center went dark in 2001 and is currently under restoration as the heart of the 512-room TWA Hotel.
The location of the Resort 2020 show is an ode to brand's founder, Louis Vuitton, who according to them invented a genuine "Art of Travel" through luggage, bags and accessories.
Harper's Bazaar first pointed out that the airport building also famously played the backdrop for Steven Spielberg's Catch Me If You Can, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks.

Earl Mountains and Mirror Lake
Located on the west coast of New Zealand's South Island near to the road leading to Milford Sound near perfect reflections of the Earl Mountains can be seen in Mirror Lake on any bright day. Earl Mountains and Mirror Lake New Zealand is an image all about reflections.
This image taken very early on a spring morning from the public viewing platform capture exactly this phenomena. The biggest surprise when taking this image was the sheer number of people on the viewing platform, having left from Teanu at three o' clock in the morning and travelled to Milford Sound to capture the first light of the day before any of the tourist buses got there, on my return I found the platform crowded and had to wait quite some time for people to stop moving around and for the wooden platform to stop moving before making this image. As I recall it was still before eight in the morning when I left the platform, I wouldn't want to know how crowded the platform got later in the day but I am very sure I got the best light of the day.

07/01/2007 -
It began as a fun idea between giggly 8-year-old friends Lindsay Bergman and Dara Thoren. But then came the challenge. Lindsay, a third-grader at Crest Hill Elementary, has attended AWANA since kindergarten. This past spring, Lindsay's AWANA group came to a part in their book that encouraged students to choose a missionary to learn about, correspond with and pray for. Lindsay chose a missionary working with orphaned children in Uganda. She sent a letter to the missionary and waited for a response.
In the meantime, Lindsay said, "My friend Dara came over and we were talking about wanting to do a lemonade stand." A few days later Lindsay received a response from the missionary, from which Lindsay learned of a need for money so orphaned children could have a home.
"I thought it would be a good idea to use the lemonade stand to get money for the children," Lindsay said.
Lindsay's mom Tammy said, "She came up with the idea and brought it to me. She told me the particulars, what it would like, etc. She got really excited about the creative side and why she was doing it."
Dara and Lindsay (

Lindsay enlisted the help of her friend Dara and they began preparations making posters, aprons and sun visors. Tammy and Lindsay baked five dozen chocolate chip cookies and mixed up two gallons of lemonade. The stand opened for business May 12 during the Tent Sale and Farnham's Furniture where Lindsay's dad, Chad, is the manager.
"People were very supportive driving through the parking lot," Tammy recalled. "They got really excited when the kids told them about it."
That night, the Bergman family kitchen was alive with excited screams. By the time the cookies and lemonade were gone and all the money was counted, $535 had been raised.
"I was really happy," Lindsay said, "I just felt really good that I did this. I feel good because I know I helped someone who really needed something."
Lindsay's mom is proud, too. "I was proud of her understanding of what she was doing, why she was doing it and who gave her the success. It was a simple lemonade stand in an effort to help. She didn't do it for any recognition. She did it with a pure heart."

The iconic Hilton Park Lane Hotel is one of London's most prestigious hotels, with its five-star luxury service and panoramic views of Hyde Park and Mayfair, as well as handy location for London's West End theatre land. Offering Michelin-starred restaurants, trendy nightclubs, a state-of-the-art gym and blissful spa, the hotel has every possible facility to delight discerning guests and travelers.
The Hilton Hotel chain decided to brighten up their front of house, to present a more welcoming, exciting face to approaching guests. Award-winning architects The Manser Practice were commissioned to develop the new design, and specified a polished stainless steel canopy incorporating a fiber optic star ceiling. Their vision was for the star points to become larger and less densely distributed, closer to the building's entrance.
UFO were commissioned to realize the star ceiling, and we chose 3 different kinds of UFO end fittings, and different sizes of polymer fiber. The smallest stars furthest away from the hotel entrance were made from 1.5 mm (0.06") polymer fiber fitted with our mushroom lenses. The mid-sized stars used 2mm (0.08") fiber fitted with our P4G paver fittings, and the largest star points close to the hotel entrance used 4.3 (0.17") mm fiber, combined with our P17T paver fittings. The team also fitted frosted glass to the outside of the medium and large stars, creating a larger light point, and boosting the viewing angle.
The 3-D effect created by the near and far star points creates a stylish, inviting ambience for approaching guests, and passing drivers on Park Lane can see our starry highlights 24 hours a day.

I like Matt Damon's character in this movie. He's crazy, and funny. But the movie itself lets down a bit. Soderbergh is playing it for laughs, but it's just not that funny. I mean, yes, Damon's character descending into madness is humorously tragic. But something tells me that if I really cared about the trials and tribulations on the price fixing of lysine, I'd be better off buying the book.
I did find it funny that the intro made the standard disclaimer about characters being composites, and other things. It then followed up with a "so there," which was probably the only guffaw I had in the entire movie. It also got me thinking a bit about the things people do in adaptations of real events. A book can be as many pages as you have money to print, and expect people to read. Movies work a little differently. They generally have to fit within a running time, and the rules of cinema are different than those of prose.
So when people mope about how a movie is not the same as a book, my response is usually "Well, duh." The question one should be asking is "Was this a good movie?" Adaptations should stand on their own merits, and while you can compare something to its source, it shouldn't be the end all.
So with the Informant, the film's clearly made to take a humorous bent on the events, as opposed to the book. I have not read the book, so I can't adequately judge it, but from what I've been told it's a more straight arrow take on the events. I'll have to put it on my reading list. Also, is it me or does Scott Bakkula look like Leonard Nimoy in this flick?

At Home's Family Homes issue is one of my favorites. Pretty sure it's because I get to meet some awesome kids and play (I mean style) in their rooms. It's always a good day when you come across fun, inspiring kids that are so proud of their rooms. So for this installation of "Creative and Color Curated," IÂ channelled my inner child (which wasn't very hard) and found some super cool pieces–from the chair, which by the way is only $65 and eco friendly, to the golidlocks mirror that any kid (or adult) is going to enjoy years to come. Whether you are 6 mos. or 60 years old…be sure to add a little whimsy. It's sure to bring a giggle every now and then.

Ward and Zooey Deschanel's soulful interpretation of classics like "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" and "Silver Bells" is pure wintertime goodness. Art director Mandy Keener, a fan of She and Him's vintage style, used the album's cover as inspiration for this month's Cover With Style edition.

HOUSTON – The team of researchers who studied an astronaut's year in space, comparing findings to those of his twin brother on Earth, spoke Monday about the project and plans for the future of space travel.
Astronaut Scott Kelly spent 340 days at the International Space Station, as part of a program that aimed to study the effects of long-term space travel. Researchers compared Kelly's condition, upon his return in March 2016, to that of his identical twin brother, astronaut Mark Kelly.
Ten scientists, one from each of the research teams, spoke about the monumental project Monday at Space Center Houston.
"We want to build on what we've learned," said Dr. Steven Platts, deputy chief scientist of the Human Research Program at NASA.
Overall, while Scott Kelly's body changed to accommodate the long stint in space, his conditions returned to where they stood on Earth once he returned, with a few exceptions.
"They saw changes during the flight and then they recovered when they came back," Platts said.
That's a good thing, according to researchers, because it contributes to the theory that people can travel to farther areas of the last frontier -- possibly Mars.
Here are a few highlights from Monday's conversation:
1. Ten research teams contributed.
That totaled 84 researchers from universities across the country. The research covered two categories.
2. Space travel puts the body through a lot.
One can imagine. In fact, some of Scott Kelly's features that changed in space returned to normal as soon as he returned to Earth.
"We found stress almost from everything everybody studied. A bunch of teams looked at different molecules, including ours, and we all found indicators of stress," said Dr. Tejaswini Mishra, who is a postdoctoral fellow at Stanford University's genetics department.
The teams examined everything from how Scott Kelly's DNA was impacted, to his cholesterol levels, which increased. His vision got worse and his immune system made adjustments but performed well.
3. Researchers were surprised when examining Kelly's DNA.
A component of one's DNA structure, telomeres, turned heads once Scott Kelly returned to Earth.
As we age, telomeres get shorter -- but his increased in space.
"Some people may think fountain of youth -- no," Platts explained.
"Just because something happened ... it's not the same as having something similar on Earth. It's its own unique thing," Platts said.
Researchers hope future long-term space travel will help provide an answer as to why.
4. While Kelly's body changed, the pace at which it changed slowed the longer he remained in space.
That likely means the body does what's required to adjust to life in space.
Future proposed trips will look into that.
5. Researchers hope to conduct five more long term trips to space.
"The timeline is we hope to start the end 2020, beginning 2021, for those, and they would be consecutive missions. Five consecutive missions," Platts said.
Proposals are still being finalized, including the specifics of what researchers will study next time. That's based on the many lingering questions that remain in the cosmos.
Research would benefit heavily from future trips, officials said. For one thing, having a stronger sample size, by adding more astronauts, strengthens researchers' theories on whether the body can handle a year at the international space station -- or even farther: This research would come in handy to determine if humans can travel to Mars.

What are the clinical issues?
- HF is associated with the second poorest survival rate when compared with cancers of the breast, bladder, bowel, ovarian and prostate. The median survival time is 16 months.
- The NICE Heart Failure model provides the principles for the model of care which should ensure people receive the right care, at the right time, by the right team and in the right place.
- Comorbidities with HF patients are common
- The Diagnostic Algorithm provides for primary care and all practitioners should be informed and confident in its use, as patients are missed at primary care level. The role of NT proBNP is central to the diagnosis as a rule-out test.
What are the implications and answers?
- A core specialist heart failure multidisciplinary team (MDT) should be established and work with primary care. It should include a lead physician, a specialist heart failure nurse and a healthcare professional with expertise in specialist prescribing for HF (clinical pharmacist).
- Once therapy has been selected and patient is stabilized, the primary care team should take over management.
- There should be 6-monthly follow-up in primary care to ensure better outcomes for HF patients.
- Increased information provision should be ensured for all patients with HF to allow better understanding of the options and uncertainties of their condition.
- Sacubitril/valsartan use is recommended for treatment of symptomatic chronic HF in patients with NYHA class II-IV, ejection fraction <35% and on a stable dose of ACE-inhibitors or angiotensin-receptor blockers.
- Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRAs) should also be offered to patients symptomatic on an ACE inhibitor/ARB and β-blocker. Primary care can initiate this therapy.
- The community heart failure nurse, has the opportunity to really understand the patients' problems and be proactive in advising the MDT team on managing the individual patient.

Bioshock Rapture by John Shirley, Jeffrey Kafer (Narrator)
Published by Tantor Media
I checked the Bioshock Rapture audio book from my library via Hoopla Digital. I do not think I would have read this book as a book (physical or ebook). The audio book interested me more because not being a gamer, I thought the audio book would work better for me. It did.
Jeffrey Kafer did a spectacular job narrating. There are a variety of voices, accents, ages, and classes. All the voices are believable. The women's voices are very good. The only voice that got to me was the splicers but that is what their purpose is so it was actually a good job.
[SPOILER] Having watched my son play Bioshock, I found the story fascinating. It tells the events that preceded the game. How Rapture was conceived and built. How it was originally settled. And how it inevitably destroyed itself.
Having listened to the book, I need to seek out more narrations by Jefrey Kafer. If you have played Bioshock, I suggest you listen to this audio book (or read it). Then play Bioshock again. I think it will give the player a whole new appreciation for the incredible world that was Rapture.

I've come to this conclusion about long-term travel: you spend about 70% of your time feeling slightly uncomfortable - a bit warm, a bit chilly, a bit tired, a bit sweaty, a bit grubby, or usually a combination of the above. That leaves about 15% of the time for feeling perfectly content, and about 15% of the time for feeling perfectly wretched. Right now I'm in the 70% zone. Amsterdam is hot today - 32° and sunny - and as a consequence I'm sweaty and sticky and grubby and really wish I had a cool, private room to hide out in and relax.
Instead, I'm at the the pleasant and spacious Openbare Biliotheek Amsterdam - the library. There are scads of free internet terminals here, and I didn't even have to wait long to get one. A quick check of the TNT courier website indicates that my computer shipment was delivered in good condition to its destination in Amsterdam, so I'm just awaiting a call from my new best friend in the Netherlands to let me know I can come and pick it up. It will take me a while to get it tweaked to my liking, but I should be online right out-of-the-box, which will be a relief.
Tomorrow I move on to Utrecht for a few days of relaxation. I don't plan on doing much touristy stuff, and may not blog while I'm there either, so don't worry if I'm out of touch again.
As for Amsterdam, here are a few thoughts on the things I've done and seen:
Anne Frank House: I believe it's actually mandatory for every tourist to visit Anne Frank House, judging my the length of the queue. It's the highest-grossing tourist attraction in the Netherlands, so perhaps they tag you with some kind of invisible RFID chip to alert border guards if you attempt to leave the country without attending. I was foiled in my attempt to buy a ticket online so I had to wait in the queue, which was not nearly as long as the one for the Hermitage in St. Petersburg, but I was standing there for just under an hour. Once inside, though, I judged that it was worth the wait, despite the whole time inside the house being approximately equal to the time spent waiting in line.
The story is so universally known it's like it's a part of everyone's shared history. And you'd have to have a heart of stone not to be touched by it, so it made the experience of going through the actual rooms quite moving. I'm not sure how much is original, and how much is a recreation, but the building itself and the rooms in it are the very rooms those 8 people hid in for more than 2 years. You can see the room Anne stayed in, and the pictures she cut out of magazines and pasted on the wall. And you can see the swinging bookcase that hid the entrance to the "secret annex", though it turns out the bookcase is a reconstruction. Still, it was all quite evocative.
Bike Tour: The Copenhagen bike tour was so fun that I was determined to do the same thing here, and in fact there was a Mike's Bikes tour company here too, though they don't seem to be affiliated with the Copenhagen operation. This bunch were decidedly on the bohemian side, but it is Amsterdam after all, and they were a lot of fun. The bikes in Amsterdam all come with two locks - the standard wheel lock encountered in Copenhagen, and a heavy chain lock too. The guy who set me up with the rental begged me to use the chain to secure the bike too something. Apparently it's a favourite trick of drunken partiers to throw bikes into the canals. About 25,000 per year are pulled out by barges that look like giant floating claw machines.
Thank you to Pete, our Mike's Bikes tour guide, who turned out to be from Ottawa! That was really nice since it meant I didn't have to explain where Winnipeg is when he asked where I was from (My standard reply to this question has become "It's in the big flat bit in the middle."). Two thumbs up for Mike's Bikes, because the tour was only €18, and I got €2 off because the tour I tried to take at first was canceled due to lack of interest, and I got 50% off the rental of a bike for doing the tour, so my bike rental for the whole 4 days in Amsterdam was only €18. Go to Mike's Bikes. And say hi to Pete for me.
And having a bike in Amsterdam has been even better than having one in Copenhagen - the city is just made for bikes - all the narrow streets that run along the canals are great for cycling. And there are a LOT of canals. Pete said there are more bridges in Amsterdam than in Venice. I'm prepared to believe there are also more bikes.
Albert Cupymarkt: I'm a bit museum-ed out at this point, so despite there being fantastic and famous museums here like the Rijksmuseum and the Van Gogh Museum and Rembrandthuis and blah blah blah, I am just not in the mood, especially after the art-overload of the Hermitage in St. Petersburg. So yesterday I got up and had a run and then biked over to the Albert Cuypmarkt, a long pedestrain street in De Pjip district, that was full of wild stalls selling everything from shampoo and CDs to lychee nuts and herring.
And that was my time in Amsterdam. I'm definitely ready to move on tomorrow, especially since the hostel I'm staying at turned out to be right in the heart of the Red Light District. (I chose it because it was close to the train station. Maybe next time I'll do a bit more research). I can't believe I've got any sleep sharing a 10 bed room with giant windows that overlook Warmoestraat, thank God I have earplugs. It's certainly a colourful neighbourhood...

Hey everybody!
I'm feeling really energetic today. I think my assistant put some red bull in my coffee! It got me thinking that a lot of people, and I'm guilty of this too at times, have a tendency to go through life in a mundane manner. It's so easy to let life drag us instead of the other way around.
I would challenge you to keep your head up and do everything you do with sincere enthusiasm. The times I've been most successful in life is when I was energetic and enthusiastic about a deal, not when I was worrisome or lethargic about it.
While the real estate market is nowhere near a peak, I would say that it's beginning to level itself out and another potential incline could definitely be on the way. This isn't the time to sit on the sidelines and let these amazing deals go by. Are you going to be energetic or lethargic about it? It's up to you!
As always, give me or call or send me a message if you have any questions. I'm here to help no matter what.
