How do you like to go up in a swing,
Up in the air so blue?
Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing
Ever a child can do!

Love, Love, Love this family! The two boys are so fun and precious and LOOK at those big blue eyes! With family coming in from out of town, they called me to take some family images. It was a fun morning – and since the Texas weather can be pretty brutal in July, they were great sports, meeting at 7:30am and we ended up with a nice swim!
A certain song resonated the hallways as the 6th graders marched through on the last day of school. It stuck in the Schannen household as the kids asked to listen to said song over and over. So after this fun shoot with so many images that typically would not fit for print (at least for most photographer's standards) I decided on creating a little slideshow with said song.
We did mange to get one image that worked.
To see the slideshow – Please CLICK HERE.
Such an adorable shot!
Well – probably the most easiest theme to date for a child photographer.
Here are some highlights of a recent session - It was a family session, (and one of my favorite families) but I am posting their two adorable boys. Still so 'innocent'.Â
Now please continue the circle to see what Clara over at Heart Inspired Photography has this week. 🙂
Mary, these are awesome! Especially love the processing on the second to last set. 🙂
[…] continue on with our blog circle and see what the super talented Mary Schannen of Melange Photography has this week… Posted in Children, Project 52 2012: The Bloom Forum « the simple […]
as always gorgeous mary! you captured their true innocence..love that first shot!
OK – so I have been a nonparticipating member until now of a Fine Art group from Bloom,. This month I've been shooting a bit and some of the images I hope to consider 'Art'.
A very rare occasion when it rains during a sunset!
Now that you are done here – Please take a look at Cara over at Mischief and Laughs Photography to see her beautiful work!
Mary you are so talented! These are all so gorgeous!
These are gorgeous! I commented on a couple in a Bloom thread. Where did you get all these beautiful little models?! Lucky girl!
I love all of them but one of my favorites is the third from the bottom where she's looking down. There's something about it that immediately makes me think of summer. Gorgeous processing!
I'm SO glad you're a part of this group. Love your work!
Mary ~ what can I say ~ I love them all!!! They are just gorgeous beautiful images that speak without words! Well done as always!!
Your work is just so stunning and every image is amazing, I really love the rain shots especially there is so much detail and texture in them. The girl in the pool has such gorgeous light and detail I love it!
These are really beautiful images…love them all but the rain shots, wow! Glad you were able to join us this month.
Amazing images. I am so glad that you could share so much inspiration in our group. Every composition is wonderful, the processing… beautiful work.
These are all so gorgeous. I love your style!
Wow, I had to look at these over and over again. Can't get enough!
So glad you were able to join in this time, your images are beautiful…all of them.
oh mary…these are exquisite. the rain, the light, the compositions, the depth of feeling, are all so incredibly beautiful. your images have such a distinct and lovely look to them. i love that you have your own voice, and it always sings…
Oh my! Stunning! I"m so glad you've joined in! Your work is breath-taking. I love these images – all of them – so many I can't even pick a favourite.
Beautiful images Mary!
Mary, oh I looove your style and pics. The rain shots, the girl with long hair in BW, they are all magical. Been admiring your pics for a while and glad you join the group!
All over the world….(have that Nothin' On You song in my head – don't remember who the original artist is.)
Just stunning – so beautiful and peaceful yet full of joy all at the same time
What a stunning session you did here, Mary! So dreamy, and delicate and perfect for these 2 little girls! The b&W's are incredible and I can not stop looking at that pink and yellow flower shot, just so beautiful! Love this whole set so much!
Encouragement…not that you need it.
Its rare that we ever find out the impact that we have on an unknown persons life. It could be a smile at a stranger when they were having a bad day, or a "thank you" to someone who felt like the world never noticed them…I guess I could have said it in much simpler terms or fewer words, but i thought you deserved more…you are a HUGE inspiration. Not that the statement means much to you, Im just a baby in the photography world, but my appreciation for art I guess you can say is as an aged grandmothers. Thank you for you beautiful work…im in awe by it…thought you should know the impact you have had on me and my making the first steps (baby steps) into the photography realm. Your photographs are art…and your style is patented! never seen anything like it…and your story is beautiful too…just wanted you to know you have touched someone many miles away, that you dont know and probably will never meet. Thank you
God bless you in abundance! hope he opens up the floodgates of heaven and pours numerous blessings on you and your family.
you are such an amazing artist. I love your light and shadows on the bridge. and I adore the full sun on this beautiful little girlie!
These are just absolutely gorgeous. Your models are beautiful and you really rocked the light.
Gorgeous, Mary. I adore all the B&W's, lines and shadows you captured. Beautiful work. Stunning little girl.
How gorgeous are these! Every single one. The girls are divine and your pp is amazing.
Wow…this is a gorgeous session Mary! Love their hair, the light, the dresses…everything comes together beautifully!
Awesome job, Mary. Indeed beautiful girls. I really love the ones on the swing..so carefree.
wow Mary! these are stunning!
these are otherworldy mary. beautiful girls with an amazing photographer 🙂
Usually I have a lot of ideas for each theme. For some reason this one was a little difficult for me.
And then it dawned on me the last minute when I saw this photo that I took last night.
When it comes to Religion, I am a very private person.
Here is a little internal prayer. It's minimal.  I have a lot more to say. But that is in between God and I.
Dear God,
From the bottom of my heart….
Thank you for my life.
Thank you for my abilities.
I will try to help more people with what I can every day.
And of course, in my faith, no one is more powerful than God.
Please continue the circle to Michele to see her take on this theme!
No words..! Faith and power in one image..!!
Well said, Mary. 🙂 love your message and image alike!
Gorgeous image…always love the airiness you capture!! Love your message!!!agreed!
It's a great song and I think of it often. It reminds me that no matter what, To live in the here and now. It's no use to get frustrated over silly things (or things that are not so silly). Some day I'll look back on this and just smile. 🙂
Tuesday, May 8th, 2012.
Throughout the day, I had a certain song in my head.
Both boys woke up sick.
Washing Machine that is only 2 months old decided to flood.
I had a mini freakout on the phone with Sears.
I will be without a Washing Machine until Friday.
Every towel in the house was used to soak up all the water. We are using small dishtowels and wash cloths when we shower. (it's actually pretty funny)
There is damage to the house because of the flood.
There is a mess in just about every room in the house.
The kids refuse to clean up.
The kids decided they were going to wear multiple outfits today.
Chris HATES getting his picture taken. Constantly putting his hand up, looking/running away, blocking himself every time the camera comes out.
Kids get better so I took them out to test out a new location (for five minutes).
Of course, Chris pouted the whole time.
When I try to take a photo of Chris while he's not looking, Mikey photobombs it.
There's always toothpaste in the kid's sinks.
I can never get them to make up their beds. I don't even try anymore.
You know – it doesn't really matter. I love my kids, my husband and my life. It's really not so bad. (It's pretty great actually.) The kids will grow up. I'll miss the toys all over. I'll miss the pouts and constant complaining from Chris. As do all kids, they grow and change. And they will move out of the house. Have their own families, kids, toys, mess, complaints. And I will miss it.
 PLEASE GO HERE TO VIEW MY SLIDESHOW FEATURING – Trace Atkins – You're Gonna Miss This.
Then come back and GO TO CLARA'S PLACE to see her always to pretty imagery!
I came across your site through a pin on Pinterest and I will be back! You sound like a wonderful soul and I love your office wall grouping of canvases. I like the entire space. Any way. Too bad we live so far apart or I might have to have coffee. I'm not a stalker just a fellow photographer.
Loved the slideshow!! And I just adore the photo of the toys all over the floor. That is my house every day… and I remind myself often that I will miss this one day too! 🙂
WOW! What a beautiful way to illustrate such a neat song. Well done! 🙂
This is so true and really resonated with me… Love your slideshow of images… put together perfectly for the song!

Cryptocurrencies are fast becoming popular after the launch of the first of its kind in 2009. The new era mode of payment that is organized by a block chain has been embraced by a good number of countries all over the world. It is in this regards that coin-mining has become a frequent activity.
Coin miners comprises of hardware used by miners to track transactions, called blocks, of a blockchain.
What is coin-mining?
Coin-miners play the central role in the functioning of the cryptocurrencies. The blockchain, which is a peer-to-peer network that records transactions, is what coin-miners deal with. Adding new blocks to a blockchain is a tedious activity that requires many resources.
Coin-miners invest their time and resources to produce a block in exchange for a reward. A reward is usually a certain number of bitcoins that is fore-agreed and a sum of transaction fees.
Mining consumes a significant amount of electricity and processing power while producing a valid block. It is for this reason that mining has been regulated to a single block for ten minutes. The difficulty was an intentional design by so that the rate of blocks discovered daily remains steady.
Mining is vital not only because it maintains the transaction database but is also the way that the digital currencies come to existence and are passed along to users in the economy. Miners are entailed with the task of keeping the blockchain consistent, complete and unchangeable by verifying and collecting present transactions, blocks, into the chain.
Main features of coin-mining
It is a difficult process that requires high processing power and copious amounts of electricity.
- Coin-miners get a reward for each block they add to the blockchain
- It is a peer-to-peer process; meaning that mining is not dependent on a centralized administrative system.
- Miners select whichever transaction to process such as those with high transaction fees.
- The transaction fee is calculated by the storage size of the transaction processed and the magnitude of inputs that the miner has used to generate the transaction.
- A proof-of-work is presented to the rest of the network before they accept the new block.
- Modifications on the blockchain are made difficult by the proof-of-work. This is because the culprit has to modify all later blocks for one block to be finally accepted. This also becomes more difficult with time.
Dangers of the coin miners
With the increase in popularity of coin-mining comes the incidences of malware that attack our devices and systems. This happens as we are in oblivion, turning our devices into cryptocurrency-mining machines.
Devices that have internet connection may not have extensive number-crunching features, even though they may be fast in generating network information. Mining malware takes advantage of this and forces botnets of computers to perform these tasks.
The coin-mining malware takes away the abilities of infected machines making them perform poorly and a rise in wear and tear. The malware from coin-mining has led to a number of supercomputers to be used to mine cryptocurrencies illicitly. It is for these reasons that many may doubt the ability of cryptocurrencies as an alternative to the current payment methods.
How to know that you are infected?
- You see suspicious and unknown processes in your Task manager.
Every coin miner creates a process, that you may notice. Check your Task Manager on unknown files, if any file uses most of your CPU power than you are probably infected. The most popular miners are Vnlgp.exe, CPM.exe, VMProtectss.exe, novoone.exe, novoopt.exe, novoping.exe, npsvc.exe and windriver.exe.
- Your system became extremely slow
If you've noticed that your PC became slower than before and programs take much more time to load – there are big chances that you have coin miner.
- Your PC can make more noise than usual
With coin miner on the computer, you can notice, that PC works louder than before and heats up very quickly because almost all CPU power is in use.

Designer Zebra Handbags And Purses
Every woman needs to have at least one designer zebra handbag or purse in her closet. No matter how conservative you are, you can always find designer zebra print to fit your taste and lifestyle. Zebra print is one of those patterns that never go out of style and the pattern crosses age groups as well as socio-economic groups. Having a designer zebra print handbag or purse in your closet is almost the same as having that perfect "little black dress" that you can wear on any occasion. Zebra print or even other animal prints go with just about any and every occasion. When looking for your perfect designer zebra handbag or purse, you should look at several things before you make a decision.
Designer zebra purses and handbag styles range from very conservative but still quite fashionable to darn right outrageously bold and daring. Do you like plain black and white designer zebra print? Do you like a splash of color mixed into your zebra print purse or handbag? What about sequence and sparkles? Do you like bold, expressive colors and additional patterns? Whatever style you want, you can be rest assured that you can find it in zebra print and that it will mix and match well-most of the time.
Designer zebra handbags come in just about any and every material you can think of. From leather, to silk, to satin, to canvas to denim and even patent leather. Many designer zebra handbags also have intricate sequence designs and patters for those elegant evening styles. Patent leather, synthetic leather or real leather purses is the best material to get if you are only able to afford one zebra print purse for your closet. These materials go with anything, they clean well and they are durable. Also, make sure the material is something that can be easily cleaned or even waterproof. On some of the finer, more delicate materials like silk, satin and sequence it may be more difficult to clean, but those are not everyday purses.
What are you using the bag for? How many compartments will you need? Is it an everyday purse? Is it a dress purse? What exactly do you have carry inside your purse? All these questions are important to make sure you choose the right purse that has all the compartments you need in order to hold all your things. As you know, all things in a woman's purse is important an each needs it's own space to keep her organized an sane. These questions will also determine what size bag you need. There is nothing wrong if you need to have a big bag. You can also get a purse organizer that has additional compartments if you still need more after you purchase your purse.
There are many accessories that you can get with you designer zebra print handbag or purse. The first, and perhaps most important is your wallet and or wallet checkbook. If you are going to have a designer zebra print handbag or purse, you should either have a plain wallet or wallet checkbook to match one of the colors on your zebra print purse, or you can get the matching wallet or wallet check book for that particular purse. You can even buy a couple of different wallets and wallet checkbooks to switch depending on the day and your mood for that day. Other accessories would include, eyeglass case, cell phone case, umbrella, gloves, key chain and key rings and iPod cases.
This is very important. If you only have $100 to spend on a purse, then you can decide if you are going to get a really good $100 bag or several pretty handbags that may be made out of cheaper material but gives you options to switch into. Designer zebra print purses and handbags can range anywhere from $15 to $400 and up depending on the material, size and style. How much you pay for your zebra print handbag depends on what exactly your are looking for, and your budget for that item. You may see one handbag that you want to spend your $100 budge on and be perfectly happy until you have more money to buy another.

Just like its blue feathered protagonist, Rio has the look yet doesn't soar to the heights needed to make this animated adventure / musical hybrid work.
20th Century Fox are not the best bet when it comes to animated features. Outside of Horton Hears A Who?, it's hard to find a Fox animated title worth recommending, which is ironic considering the rich material found in their TV work (The Simpsons, King of the Hill, etc.)

Covance, ISB form brain tumor partnership
April 2011
SEATTLECovance's genomics laboratory located here has struck a collaboration with the Institute for Systems Biology (ISB) to study brain tumors, one of the most deadly forms of human cancer.
In the collaboration, researchers will study the genetic differences that lurk within glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) and find molecular targets that may enable researchers to select the right drug for the right patient. Financial terms of the collaboration were not disclosed.
GBM has an average survival time of a little more than one year after diagnosis, a fact that has not changed in more than a hundred years. According to Thomas Turi, vice president of science and technology for Covance Discovery and Translational Services, considerable efforts have been applied to unravel the complicated genetic background of GBM.
"The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) network initiated by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) chose GBM as one of the first cancer types for its pilot study to characterize genomic abnormalities using a variety of technologies including DNA microarrays and targeted Sanger sequencing approaches," he says. "By analyzing more than 200 GBM patients, the TCGA has laid the groundwork for systematic integration of genetic variations, molecular profiles and clinical phenotypes."
This new research project will combine the companies' capabilities in genomics, with Covance providing assay and sequencing services. Covance will generate all the data required for this project and will participate in analysis along with scientists from the ISB, which is also based in Seattle.
Having run more than 450,000 samples to date, Covance's genomics laboratory provides end-to- end services for genomics-based development research and has demonstrated particular expertise in next-generation sequencing (NGS), which will be used to provide researchers an important dataset to investigate tumor heterogeneity and find targets for patient stratification and/or therapeutics.
Covance arrived in Seattle in July 2009, when it bought the gene expression lab that was part of Merck & Co. Inc.'s Rosetta Inpharmatics unit. The collaboration will be the first time that Covance and ISB have worked together directly, though there is a connection dating to when the lab was part of Rosetta Inpharmatics, of which Leroy Hood was a co-founder. In its more than 10-year history, several scientists from Covance Genomic Laboratory (CGL) have either worked directly or indirectly with Hood and the ISB on various projects.
"Collaborating with Covance will help us better understand the disease of glioblastoma multiforme biology," says Hood, president of the ISB. "We know Covance's experience in genomics and next-generation sequencing will give us an unprecedented level of high-quality data."
According to Turi, the ISB proved to be a perfect fit in this effort because of its work in developing innovative technologies and computational tools required for understanding biological complexity.
"Given the complex nature of this disease, the ISB is an obvious partner, as the data generated will be varied and complicated, requiring the expertise that only the ISB can bring," he says. "To facilitate greater collaboration and communications, the ISB will be moving into the same facility where CGL is located in Seattle."
Turi explains that NGS has "revolutionized the field of genomics by allowing investigation of the genomic aberrations associated with different cancers, or any other disease, at an unprecedented level."
"Being digital in nature and due to its larger dynamic range compared to microarrays, this technology helps in the identification of novel genetic alterations, non-coding RNAs and alternative splicing, in addition to gene expression associated with various diseases," he continues. "As more data becomes available, there is a growing need in the industry to develop automated pipelines to integrate and mine complex datasets for better understanding of the diseases for drug development."
Moreover, Turi notes that these studies will provide new insights and associated new discoveries will lead to entirely new approaches to treat brain cancer.
"Integration of various datasets to look at all of the important aspects of GBM etiology: mutations, gene expression, promoter analysis, etc., will allow us to define how each of these plays a role in regulating different networks. For example, by mining these networks, we will be able to identify gene signatures associated with different cell sub-types associated with GBM," he says. "As GBM is a highly heterogeneous disease, this information will be very useful to identify and isolate different types of tumor-initiating cells from patients and target them for therapeutics. In the future, these biomarkers can be used in the clinic by physicians for personalized medicine."
Once finished, the results of the analysis along with the raw data will be released to public databases and submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed scientific journal.
"This information will be available to the entire scientific community to further enhance our understanding of this condition and to help make a difference in the lives of people suffering with this terrible disease," Turi concludes.

New England Homes builds the modules at their factory but the setting and the buttoning up of the house on-site is done by independent contractors. The entire building process went very smoothly. The contractor offered a lot of great ideas; we got to see the house being built right in the factory, the house was delivered, buttoned up, and finished on time and UNDER budget. The changes that we needed to make on the fly were never a problem. The whole experience was incredible and I would highly recommend the combination of New England Homes and Paul and Peter George to anyone."

Some of the Hopewell membership joined with other believers from the Mansfield area to pray prior to the gay pride events in Mansfield this past weekend.
The prayers availed much as the morning events were rained out and the rest of the day did not see any significant turnout.
Some of us also went out to share the gospel with those who came to the gay pride festival. We thank the Lord that we were able to have so many good conversations and give witness to the saving power of Christ.
Your comment will be posted after it is approved.

Each church has a personality that is shaped by the core convictions it holds. Since our church has begun these convictions have shaped who we are and how we minister.
Gospel Centrality
Gospel Centrality is the belief that the message of the Gospel is more than the entry door into the Christian faith, but that the Gospel is the foundation for salvation, at the root of all authentic life change, and is the means by which we will receive an enteral inheritance. Many Christians are versed in the Gospel as a means of doctrine but practically operate each day according to legalism or license in the way they approach God, others, and even themselves. Gospel centered ministry is saturated in a grace that redeems, a grace that transforms, and is marked by an ever-growing understanding and appreication for what the believer has in Christ.
Expositional Preaching
Each passage of scripture has intended meaning. The goal of expositional preaching is to discover, explain, illustrate and apply this intended meaning. In expositional preaching the text produces the sermon versus the sermon producing the text. Along with a commitment to expositional preaching we predominantly walk through books of the bible chapter by chapter, verse by verse.
Disciple Making
This begins with making disciples and continues with growing disciples. Our vision is to see each member of our church developed in their Spiritual walk. This takes place through the corporate Gathering times, Gathering Groups, periodic electives and leadership development roles.
Truth and Spirit
We believe in the necessity of faithful Bible teaching and application. We also believe in the active presence of the Holy Spirit. Jesus calls us to worship in truth and Spirit.
Biblical Eldership
The Gathering is Jesus' church. The Bible teaches He is the ultimate Shepherd of the Church Universal, and its local expressions. It also teaches God's design to place a plurality of called, capable Pastors to oversee His local churches. These Pastors share equality and jointly labor together to faithfully shepherd matters pertaining to the whole of the church. Amongst this plurality is a lead Pastor, who will take a leading role. The Lead Pastor is often spoken of as a first amongst equals, likened to James in the Jerusalem church. Elders may be vocational edlers or lay elders. Our eldership consists of men who are called to shepherd and who meet the requirements of 1 Timothy 3:1-7 and Titus 1:5-9.

A lot of us are releasing through gumroad. It doesn't have much to offer in way of community, you can pretty much just set up your store and direct people there through other means (here, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) You do get a larger percentage of the sale price compared to Rifftrax, but not having the built-in audience does make it harder to get noticed. It is nice to be able to set up your own coupon codes and do pre-sales though. Here's my store, so you can get an idea what you can do. https://gumroad.com/RoninFoxTraxYou can also help promote yourself by building a presence on the riffwiki.http://rifftrax.wikia.com/wiki/RiffTrax_Wiki
I wasn't aware iRiffs could cut a check to two parties for sales on one account. I don't think Gumroad is set up the same way. I think you will have to assign one of you to receive the direct deposits for your sales and then send half to the other.

A look back at 2010
The New Year is almost upon us, bringing with it a brand new 365 days to use as we see fit. The back-end of 2010 saw a lot happen within the Temple of Enthusiasm's walls, from international rockstars jamming' acoustic style, to the groms getting loose in the back yard.Here are some of the moments that happened in and around the Temple's walls. It has been an eventful and awe inspiring few months, and we are looking towards 2011 to keep up the good vibe! Oh and don't miss out on the New Years shenanigans tomorrow night. Fireworks, movies, beers and an all around good time to be had. Bring the kids!

The Big Chill
When the students at Northrop High School opened the June 5, 1990, issue of their school newspaper, the center pages were blank, except for the words: "This is not a printer's error.''
Those six words took the place of a controversial two-page article written by Jeff Lovell, editor of What's Bruin? Lovell had uncovered evidence documenting theft by a school coach at the Fort Wayne, Ind., high school. But before the paper containing the story went to press, principal H. Douglas Williams censored it.
Lovell had initially set out to write an article about the cost of the spring sports program. But the story shifted focus after Lovell reviewed the budget of the girls' tennis team. He became suspicious when he found that the participants were charged $65 in fees to play tennis on the courts at the coach's apartment complex; Lovell interviewed the apartment manager and learned that there was no charge for the use of the courts.
Lovell collected canceled checks and signed statements from the apartment manager, all the evidence he needed to prove his case--and to convince journalism adviser Wendy Kruger that he had verified all his sources. "It was the best reporting I've ever seen in the high school press,'' Kruger says.
Before publication, Lovell told Williams about the story. "I went to the principal out of respect,'' Lovell says. "I wanted to keep him informed.''
Lovell certainly didn't expect the article to be pulled. After all, the principal had stopped by the journalism office after the U.S. Supreme Court's 1988 ruling, Hazelwood School District vs. Kuhlmeier, to reassure students that they would not be censored; the ruling strengthened school administrators' censorship powers. "The principal said, 'Don't worry about Hazelwood. Nothing like that will happen here,''' Lovell remembers.
But when the student approached the principal about the story, that First Amendment pep talk was all but forgotten. Says Lovell, "I was told that the article was accurate and not libelous, but it couldn't run.''
Williams, who is now an area administrator, says he censored the story because he thought it would have damaged student-teacher relationships. "I believe the article would have been counterproductive,'' he says. "The newspaper can criticize the school administration, but I don't think it should single out individual teachers for criticism.''
As a result of Lovell's investigation, the teacher resigned as tennis coach, but he remained a health teacher. The following year, the paper ran a story about the controversy--including a reduced picture of the original spread--but Lovell's story never appeared in readable form.
"My story never ran, and that was my last experience with journalism,'' says Lovell, who is now a sophomore studying math and finance at Hillsdale College in Michigan. "In the end, I was simply told: 'Life isn't fair.'''
The case underscores the tension created when the rights of students to a free press collide with the rights of principals and administrators to control what takes place on school grounds. In such conflicts, both sides see their rights as absolute, but legally, the issues are far less clear.
Five years ago, Lovell would have had little trouble defending his freedom to publish his controversial article. But the Hazelwood decision complicated the issue by increasing school administrators' authority to control the student press, including the right to review material before publication--and the right to censor.
The Hazelwood decision had an immediate chilling effect on the freedom of the high school press nationwide. In the years since the ruling, student freedom of expression has been curtailed at many schools. Just one year after Hazelwood, a University of Arizona journalism professor conducted a national survey of 350 high school journalism advisers and found that both students and teachers had already begun to feel the censorship standards imposed by the case. Fully 12 percent of the teachers reported their publications were subject to prior review, where none were monitored before 1988. During the first six months of this year, the Student Press Law Center received 700 requests for legal assistance; in all of 1988, it received 550.
In the post-Hazelwood era, administrators often find it easier to censor than to wrestle with the sometimes difficult decisions involving student-press freedom. Articles that pose a potentially controversial point of view or present the school in an unfavorable light often wind up edited or deleted entirely.
In the spring of 1990, for example, the principal of Annandale High School in Fairfax County, Virginia, banned an advertisement for SMYAL--the Sexual Minority Youth Assistance League--because it "was in conflict with the community's desires.'' The advertisement invited students to join a weekly discussion group and to call a help-line for information and counseling. The student editor appealed the decision to the superintendent, who, after seeking legal advice, convinced the principal to reverse his decision.
In another case, just one year after the Hazelwood decision, the school administration at Jefferson (Mont.) High School notified the journalism adviser that the newspaper could not print any stories about the pending teacher contract negotiations. "The administrators felt that, because of Hazelwood, they had the right to censor whatever they wanted,'' says Mark Kelly, teacher-adviser to the Panther Press. When Kelly filed a grievance with the union, the administration agreed to allow the articles.
"We're seeing more efforts to restrict student free expression,'' says Mark Goodman, executive director of the Student Press Law Center. "We're now seeing lawyers looking at Hazelwood and trying to figure out what administrators can get by with. The problem is that educators aren't asking, 'Is censorship educationally sound? Is it morally right?'''
On Dec. 15, the nation will celebrate the bicentennial of the ratification of the Bill of Rights. The First Amendment has been called the protector of truth, the watchdog of a free society, the only defense against the tyranny of the majority. Yet students' freedom of expression in school was not clearly established under the First Amendment until 22 years ago.
In earlier cases, the courts almost always affirmed school administrators' right to silence student speech. During the 1920s and 1930s, state courts consistently upheld the right of public school administrators to suspend or expel students who aired grievances or made "disrespectful remarks'' about school authorities in public.
The first student free-speech case did not reach the Supreme Court until 1940. Two Jehovah's Witnesses, 12-year-old Lillian Gobitis and her 10-year-old brother, William, were expelled from school in Minersville, Pa., because they refused to recite the Pledge of Allegiance, citing religious objections. They sued the school district. The Supreme Court held that a public school district did have the right to expel a student for refusing to pledge the flag. The students enrolled in private school, at their parents' expense.
But the high court reversed itself just three years later. After the Gobitis children lost their case, the state of West Virginia passed a law requiring school children to perform a "stiff-arm'' salute to the flag, explicitly stating that the right hand should be firmly raised with the palm held flat. The PTA, the American Red Cross, the Boy Scouts, and the Girl Scouts objected to the gesture, arguing that it was "too much like Hitler's'' salute.
When several Jehovah's Witnesses again refused to pledge, they were charged with insubordination and expelled from school. In this case, however, the Supreme Court reversed its earlier ruling, reasoning that requiring children to recite the pledge coerced them to state political beliefs that they did not agree with. This decision became a landmark for students' rights: It represented the first time that the Supreme Court recognized that public school children have First Amendment rights. (Private school administrators are not restrained by the First Amendment, which protects individuals from actions by the government or government officials.)
The next leap forward came nearly 25 years later. In December 1965, a group of Quakers in Des Moines, Iowa, decided to protest against the war in Vietnam by wearing black armbands during the Christmas season. In an attempt to thwart action by Quaker students, the principals in the Des Moines schools adopted a policy prohibiting students from wearing armbands to school.
Three students--13-year-old Mary Beth Tinker, 15-year-old John Tinker, and 16-year-old Christopher Eckhardt--wore the armbands anyway, and they were suspended. The students sued the school district, claiming their First Amendment rights had been violated.
On Feb. 24, 1969, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in the students' favor. In the landmark decision, the court held that school authorities do not have the power to silence student expression simply because they disagree with the students' viewpoint. This case established students' First Amendment right to express themselves peacefully on school grounds, so long as they do not cause a "substantial disruption of or material interference with school activities.''
In the 7-2 majority opinion, Justice Abe Fortas wrote: "In our system, state-operated schools may not be enclaves of totalitarianism. School officials do not possess absolute authority over their students....First Amendment rights, applied in the light of special characteristics of the school environment, are available to teachers and students. It can hardly be argued that either students or teachers shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate.''
The decision in Tinker vs. Des Moines Independent Community School District clearly established students' constitutional right to voice their opinions at school, even when those opinions are unpopular or controversial. But many administrators, teachers, and parents believe that students should not be given virtual carte blanche to run a school news- paper--especially when taxpayers' money is used to support the publication.
In the commercial press, the publisher finances the publication and therefore has complete control over the paper--including the right to censor. Some school administrators consider their role parallel to that of publisher: As long as taxpayers' money is used to pay for the school newspaper, the administration should share in the editorial control. The Supreme Court has not directly addressed this issue, but lower courts have found that administrators do not have the right to editorial control just because they control the purse strings.
There are also those who argue that administrators should have censorship authority over student publications because schools could be held liable for articles that appear in student newspapers. But that fear is unfounded, according to Goodman of the Student Press Law Center.
"Administrators talk about risk, but the risk of student publications is virtually nil,'' Goodman says. "Throughout U.S. history, no court has ever found a high school responsible for what is published in the student press. Liability is a red herring raised by school administrators to establish their right to control the press.''
As long as students are treated like professional journalists, they have the same rights--and responsibilities--as professional journalists. "The best way a school system can protect itself from lawsuits is to hire a competent publication adviser,'' says John Bowen, chairman of the Journalism Education Association's Scholastic Press Rights Commission. "When the adviser knows scholastic press law, the school is less likely to get into trouble.''
Freedom of speech is not absolute for either students or professional journalists. Over the years, the Supreme Court has carved out nine categories of speech that are "unprotected'' by the First Amendment. They include: obscenity, libel, incitement to lawless action, fighting words (personally abusive language that is likely to provoke a violent reaction), advertisements for illegal products or services, invasion of privacy, threats to national security, copyright violations, and, as a result of Tinker, expression that causes a material and substantial disruption of school activities.
Most cases of student-press censorship involve articles that school administrators think are obscene or would disrupt school activities. Virtually all obscenity cases involve profanity, although the Supreme Court has explicitly stated that profanity and "four-letter words'' are not obscene, even in the high school press.
Lawsuits involving censorship based on the disruption argument are often more confusing, in part because the Supreme Court was vague in defining what it means by "substantial disruption,'' leaving the phrase for lower courts to interpret. Some administrators have tried to exploit this ambiguity by broadly defining disruption. But when censorship cases go to court, the burden of proof lies with the school administration; in other words, it must prove that the censored speech would have disrupted the school. The Supreme Court did state that the censorship could not be based on "undifferentiated fear'' of disruption or an administrator's "intuition'' that a statement could be disruptive.
Using the categories of unprotected speech and the Tinker ruling as guides, the courts affirmed and expanded the rights of high school and college journalists in legal decisions throughout the 1970s and early 1980s. In these cases, federal courts upheld students' right to publish profanity, criticism of school policies and personnel, and articles on controversial topics, such as premarital sex, birth control, abortion, and drug abuse. During this period, student journalists enjoyed the most sweeping First Amendment protections in the nation's history.
Then came Hazelwood.
On May 10, 1983, the journalism adviser at Hazelwood East High School in suburban St. Louis brought the page proofs for the May 13 edition of the school newspaper to principal Robert Reynolds for his approval. At Hazelwood, prior review was a matter of policy: The paper was written by the Journalism II class as part of the curriculum; the page proofs were always reviewed by the administration before printing.
According to the Supreme Court opinion in the Hazelwood case, when Reynolds read the six-page paper, he objected to two articles, one dealing with students' experiences with pregnancy and another discussing the impact of divorce on students. Because there was no time to make the necessary changes in the stories before the scheduled press run, Reynolds ordered the adviser to delete the pages entirely.
Cathy Kuhlmeier, the student editor, and two other staff members of The Spectrum sued the administration, charging that their First Amendment rights had been violated. On Jan. 13, 1988, the Supreme Court handed down its decision upholding the right of the high school administrator to censor stories.
The court's 5-3 majority opinion basically said that the First Amendment rights of public school students are not necessarily the same as those of adults. The court ruled that the student newspaper at Hazelwood East High School was not a "forum for public expression'' because it was part of the school curriculum. Since the newspaper was a non-forum, school-sponsored activity, the Tinker standard-- which said school officials could censor only if the material would disrupt school activities--did not apply.
Instead, the court established a new standard: that school officials have the right to censor if they can present a reasonable educational justification for the censorship. The court determined that the Hazelwood principal had acted reasonably in censoring the stories, concluding that it was "not unreasonable'' for the principal to have decided that "frank talk'' by students about their sexual history and use of birth control was "inappropriate in a school-sponsored publication distributed to 14-year-old freshmen.''
The court set forth several categories of material that could be censored, including stories that are "ungrammatical, poorly written, inadequately researched, biased or prejudiced, vulgar or profane, or unsuitable for immature audiences.'' The court also noted that the school administration "must be able to take into account the emotional maturity of the intended audience in determining whether to disseminate student speech on potentially sensitive topics,'' such as "teenage sexual activity in a high school setting'' and "speech that might reasonably be perceived to advocate drug or alcohol use, irrespon- sible sex, or conduct otherwise inconsistent with the 'shared values of a civilized social order.'''
Not all the justices agreed with the majority. In his dissent, Justice William Brennan wrote: "Such unthinking contempt for individual rights is intolerable from any state official. It is particularly insidious from one to whom the public entrusts the task of inculcating in its youth an appreciation for the cherished democratic liberties that our Constitution guarantees.''
The critical issue in the Hazelwood case involves the definition of a publication as a forum of student expression. In previous cases, the court had said that any student publication that was more than an "activity time and place sheet'' would be considered a forum. But Hazelwood changed that. If, as at Hazelwood East High School, the teacher adviser has final authority over content decisions, then the newspaper is not considered a forum by the court but an extension of the school and, as such, subject to greater control by administrators.
"Our newspaper is a part of the curriculum,'' says Reynolds, principal at Hazelwood East. "We call it a laboratory exercise. There is as much structure in our journalism lab as there is in a physics lab.''
On the other hand, if student editors have been clearly given control of content decisions, or if the school has explicitly designated a publication as a forum, then administrators can exercise far less control. When a newspaper is a forum, the teacher-adviser helps and guides students, but the student editor remains responsible for all decisions.
"The adviser has a responsibility to teach the student the standards of professional journalism,'' says Bowen of the Scholastic Press Rights Commission. "After that, the student editor and the student editorial board bear the responsibility for the decisions. The advisers couldn't censor if they wanted to; the students decide what to publish, and they are responsible.
"In 20 years of teaching journalism, I've never had to censor,'' says Bowen, who is a journalism adviser and social studies teacher at Lakewood (Ohio) High School. "My students know how to be responsible journalists.''
Although many school administrators are employing the broad censorship authority Hazelwood has given them, others have been more hesitant. Some have even taken steps to defend and strengthen student press rights at their schools.
Last year, for example, the student newspaper at Kirkwood High School in suburban St. Louis--just 20 miles from Hazelwood East High--agreed to run an advertisement for Planned Parenthood. The ad said, in part, "It's not enough to 'just say no.' Say KNOW.'' It listed a phone number for counseling and referral. Birthright, another organization concerned with reproductive issues, wanted to counteract the Planned Parenthood ad by running one that said, in part: "Make no mistake about it. The abortionist doesn't perform choice. He kills a baby.''
Many parents and local citizens considered the ads inappropriate for a high school audience, so they urged principal Franklin McCallie to ban them. Mc- Callie refused. Instead, he explained the situation to his student journalists and asked them to make their own decision. "If there's going to be a free press, it's up to the students to decide how to handle difficult situations,'' McCallie says. "I would have supported whatever decision the staff made.
"I see it as more than an issue of freedom of speech. It's the right way to educate. If you tell students they're playing at being journalists, then you don't get mature reporting. If you let the kids know you have great expectations, they will rise to the occasion.''
Because Kirkwood High School has clearly established the students' right to control editorial content, the paper is considered, under the Hazelwood decision, a forum. Publications can become forums either through practice--by letting final editorial control rest with students--or through policy--by establishing guidelines or policies that define the publication as a forum. In most cases, these guidelines also clarify the rights and responsibilities of the student journalists, the teacher-advisers, and the school administrators.
"Most high schools with good newspapers have policies protecting student press rights,'' says Goodman of the Student Press Law Center. The center has prepared model guidelines for student expression that have been used by school districts across the country when drafting such policies.
States can also enact measures that further guard students' freedom of expression. To date, four states-- California, Colorado, Iowa, and Massachusetts-- have passed laws that protect the rights of student journalists. (California passed its law 10 years before the Hazelwood decision was handed down.) Teachers in nearly a dozen other states have lobbied for similar laws.
The state laws in place typically guarantee students' right to free speech, except in those cases that fall under one of the established categories of unprotected speech. Often, the laws also require schools or school boards to adopt written publication guidelines.
In Indiana, where Lovell's story about the tennis coach was censored, the students in Northrop High's journalism program have been lobbying the state legislature to pass a law that protects their freedom of expression. The bill was first introduced last year and will be reintroduced this year.
"Our paper is not a forum [set out] in writing, but it is a forum in practice,'' says Wendy Kruger, Northrop's journalism adviser. "Our students control the editorial content. And we're working for legislative protection that would firmly establish our students' rights to free speech. In my opinion, it's impossible to have good journalism without press freedom.''

When the little lady suddenly started suffering from regular outbreaks of eczema on her arms and legs a few months ago it was heartbreaking. There is nothing worse than seeing your little one suffer from a skin condition and feeling like there is nothing you can do to help soothe the pain or stop them getting it in the first place. It's really easy to think that once they are past that newborn phase that their skin is less sensitive, but there really is nothing more delicate than children's skin whatever their age.
So we couldn't have discovered Child's Farm at a better time. With their range of fresh and fruity smelling natural bath and body products made especially for children with sensitive skin and eczema prone skin, they've been the perfect antidote for our little ones skin. Now we don't use anything else, and since our little man came along they've introduced a baby range which is perfect for his delicate newborn skin.
I can honestly say that we have tried most of the range and loved each and every product. There is so much love, care and attention that goes into creating products that are delicate and caring, yet smell great and look fun. From the packaging, to the scent and quality of their products, Child's Farm don't miss a beat. All of their products are:
- Made with natural and organic products
- Made with organic essential oils
- dermatologically tested
- Pediatrician approved
- Free from parabens, SLSs, mineral oils and artificial colours
- Kind, mild and safe for little ones skin
- Suitable for newborns and above
- Made especially for the needs of children's hair and skin
- Never tested on animals
We love them so much than we've become Child's Farm ambassadors! They are hands down our favourite brand for children's and baby's bath and body products, and these are some of our favourites that we would love to recommend you give a whirl!
Our Favourites
Child's Farm Detangling Spray
This is literally the best detangling spray I have ever used on the little lady's hair. She has a most unruly barnet made up of a combination of curls, waves and straight bits which has a tendency to get a little (understatement) knotty and needs a fair bit of detangling spray to wrestle it into something half presentable at the best of times. We've tried at least four different children's detangling sprays in the past and none of them have actually worked the magic that Child's Farm detangling spray does. Not only does it smell amazing (think citrus fruits), but it has the best spray pump I've ever tried on any product and after using it brushes actually glide through her hair. I love this product and for anyone that has little ones who need detangling spray, you need to try this.
Childs Farm Shampoo
The Child's Farm shampoo was the second ever Child's Farm product we bought (the first was the bubble bath) and fell quickly in love with. Its fresh strawberry and mint scent captivated us, but it was its no sting formulation that wowed us. With a toddler that hates washing her hair, the no sting shampoo was a bath time game changer for us. Of course the product itself is amazing too, it lathers a treat and detangles well making it an all round winner in our house.
Child's Farm Baby Oil
When it comes to newborns I am very reluctant about putting products on their skin. I know that their skin is so, so delicate and has a whole transition and adjustment that it needs to go through in the early weeks and months. So it's really important to us that we use as natural products as we can, and only if and when we really need to. For example after baths, or in weather that is particularly stressful for their skin, like the warm weather we have had this summer. When I heard that Child's Farm had developed a baby range I knew it would be perfect for us and this is one of my favourite products from the range. A baby oil which you can spray into your hands and rub onto your little ones skin. Its nice and light and has a lovely natural coconut scent which smells absolutely amazing. It adds just the right amount of moisture to his skin and is perfect for everyday use, although we only use it after baths at the moment as this feels about right for him and his skin. But of all the Child's Farm baby range, this is my favourite and I just love using this product on my little guy. If there's one thing you try from their baby range it should be this.
Childs Farm Baby Bedtime Bubbles
For the first few weeks after our little guy was born we didn't put anything in his bath other than water, just as we did when the little lady was a newborn. But one of the joys of having two little ones is being able to give them baths together. It's a delight for parents to watch and fun for the children to splash about together. But of course it means you need to be able to use products in the bath which they can both use, which is one of the reasons why I love the Child's Farm bedtime bath bubbles. Because it is one of those products that they can both us. Not only is it gentle and moisturising enough for both of our children's skin, but it also has the same lovely tangerine smell as the little lady's Child's Farm bubble bath so I feel like I'm getting the best of both worlds.
As you can see, we think Child's Farm are fab and love to introduce friends, family and other bloggers to them at any opportunity so we have one set of the lovely Child's Farm Baby Essentials Kits shown here to giveaway to one lucky reader. All you need to do to win is enter the Rafflecopter competition below. But if you can't wait till the end of the competition, we also have an amazing 30% discount code to share with all our readers.

Environmentally friendly values and corporate social responsibility have been big themes in 2017. Next year, as we head towards an even greater focus on ethical business and giving something back, the importance of being able to show customers that you take this seriously is likely to increase. Paper shredding is one way that any business can instantly upgrade green credentials in time for the new year.
Recycle and reuse
Of the average 10,000 sheets of paper used by office workers in a year, roughly 6,800 of these could be considered "waste" e.g. mistakenly printed etc. That's a huge volume of paper that will end up in landfill. Introducing recycling to your business is becoming the norm but this can be a difficult process to set up and the logistics of disposal can be time consuming. On-site shredding enables you to simplify recycling processes, as everything is done on-premises. Lockable bins transport your waste paper to the on-site shredding team who shred the paper, which can then be recycled and reused.
Safe for sensitive material
One of the reasons that many businesses hesitate with recycling is the fear of a leak of sensitive data or confidential material. This is a very valid fear, as it's not difficult for documents to go astray if they are being transported off site to an unknown recycling plant. On-site shredding enables your business to increase the amount of waste paper it recycles by including even sensitive and confidential documents. The process of on-site shredding is secure because nothing ever leaves your premises in tact. The documents are only taken off-site after they have been shredded and are no longer a risk. This not only provides the peace of mind of knowing that you are protecting company information but helps with data protection compliance too.
Demonstrating your brand values to customers
Today, consumers are becoming increasingly choosy about the brands that they buy from and environmental credentials are starting to be a more important factor in whether a brand appeals. If you are looking for a way to demonstrate the efforts that your business is making to be a greener company then on-site shredding offers a simple way to do this. It not only shows a commitment to corporate social responsibility but a willingness to actively take steps to help minimise the waste that you generate. This can be an incredibly valuable asset in the eyes of consumers who prefer to partner with businesses who take their impact on the environment seriously and want to make a difference.
Implementing on-site shredding in-house for a greener 2018
It's very simple to introduce on-site shredding to your business next year. You might opt for a regular shredding service, or a one off service as and when you need it. The only internal change is ensuring that the documents for shredding are in the right bins and the rest is handled by us – to find out more, get in touch with a member of the Shred-on-Site team today on 0800 181 4106.

Mobile Shipyard - WIP
Hey guys
If you have some time I'd like your input on this model I'm working, a mobile shipyard. It's supposed to be able to move around and jump from system to system like a normal ship would and it can build other smaller ships or various space objects. From my point of view the ship is pretty much done as it is but still, if you guys can think of some other modules I can add to it to make it look more industrial or more fitting for the task at hand please let me know.
8 comments:
Looks great, nice to see something different from the typical skeletal cubes or cylinders you usually see. Looks like it'd be capable of repairs too, since a ship could get into position for those mechanical arms to fix it.ReplyDelete
Yup. I'm thinking it can be use in games to build ships exactly where you need them, far from your station-shipyard or planet of origin. Also because of its flat shape, as you said, it can maneuver below ships or structures and start repairing them. Of course you could use your usual smaller repair ships for this kind of job but with this particular ship the repairing would go much faster.ReplyDelete
I'm thinking that for construction operations this ship should be accompanied by a cargo hauler which would carry the necessary parts (metal, electronics) for building various ships or structures.
Yeah that way it wouldn't be too overpowered in contrast to full immobile construction yards, needs to have a downside to compensate for the 'build anywhere' mechanic, the separate supply ship for the resources would be an interesting mechanic in a game, possibly having the distance to the nearest supply ship affect building speeds (as if there are shuttles going in-between moving the materials), or having two make the construction slightly faster? Just an idea :PReplyDelete

You can make a derivative to a Starhammer. Remove the robotic arms, make it longer and add a big exotic device that takes a big chunk of the spacecraft and that's it.ReplyDelete
A Starhammer is spacecraft I seen as an addon on the web for the Rifts tabletop RPG which as for unique function to jump into the core of a star and generate disturbance in some 1/100,000th of a seconds to collapse the star and force an explosion equivalent to a mini supernova.
Starhammers haven't a standard design and are built mainly on a big FTL core surrounded by a strcture like the one you made, with small drives and a small crew module that is evacuated before that the Starhammer is triggered. There are no weapons on the spacecraft itself since the spacecraft is already a weapon by itself, but the crew is protected by some cybershells.
Just a suggestion, I will implement Starhammers into FARC so... wink wink lol.
- AnonymousSeptember 29, 2013 at 3:28 PM
the only thing I would have suggested was the addition of either a ship or station under construction, with internal decks etc.ReplyDelete
but as always some truly imaginative & awesome work.....they remind me a lot of the artwork covers that appeared on a lot of the 1970's sci fi novels
Maybe make the construction gantries curve up along the edges.ReplyDelete
Other than that, I want one!

According to PWinsider, Diamond Dallas Page has been "confirmed" for the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2017 in a "non-headliner" position. WWE has not officially confirmed DDP as an inductee, but the season is upon us, so rumors and spoilers are here!
DDP is best known for his time in WCW, being both of the few main event stars made by WCW in its heyday and one its best non NWO draws in 1997-1998. DDP is also famous as one of the oldest "rookies" in history, transitioning to wrestler at the tender age of 35.
Recently, Page has revolutionized the most popular yoga program in wrestling history with DDP Yoga. As a person who does the DDP Yoga program and has lost weight, I can speak highly about this wonderful program. Both Jake Roberts and Scott Hall owe their lives to Page.
On top of that, Vader has recently come to work with DDP in hopes of saving his life from heart failure.
All in all Diamond Dallas Page will be a welcome addition. Here's hoping the rumor is true!
What do you think?

Sometimes, nothing says so much as an empty seat. At least that's what a lot of Roosevelt Islanders thought last night when Anthony Weiner didn't show for a debate with Gifford Miller at a church on the charming island's Main Street. Folks were already irritated that Fernando Ferrer had accepted and then cancelled, and that Virginia Fields never even responded, according to Roosevelt Island Residents Association members who organized the event.
Of course, with a week to go before the primary and a city of 8 million to cover, campaigns have to pick and choose which voters to target. But that's cold comfort to those who get skipped. When Weiner's campaign aide Harry Chernoff filled in for the congressman, the disappointment in the pews was palpable, because Roosevelt Islanders have a batch of unique beefs with government. Owned by the city and leased to the state, the island is administered by an unelected board that many in Tuesday night's crowd feel is unresponsive to the community.
Then a buoyant Miller arrived and began recounting the details of island policy debates past and the names of former members of the Roosevelt Island Operating Board. He seemed to win over just about anyone who wasn't already planning on voting for the man who has represented the Island in the City Council since 1997. Like the saying goes, half of life is showing up.

Welcome to the Rockbox Technical Forums!
Sansapatcher installs the bootloader, it is not the booloader.
I looked back through this thread but i did not find a posted link to the previous version of the boot loader.
The first link is dead.
the second link requires me to register with the forum.
actually those links are for sansapatcher NOT the bootstrap.
Sansapatcher installs the bootloader, it is not the booloader.I might have misunderstood you guys- which bootloader are you look for? The Rockbox bootloader has been embeded in sansapatcher for quite some time now.
Hey guys,I understand that using the old version of sansapatcher (v0.2) works fine, but what would be the alternative for people who have Rhapsody version of the player?Thanks!

Several of us RVer's decided we'd get up early and go have breakfast on the beach! It was a beautiful day today (last Sunday when we went it was a bit on the cold side) We choose the same place as last week. They have a great menu and it's cheap!
Since there were 10 of us we had to get 2 separate tables but we were close to each other. Our table L – R Bev, Jan, Les, hubby, and Ray the silly one.
the next table L_R Jim, Margie, Peggy and Dave. The place was full.
Les decided he wanted to go parasailing. So after breakfast he headed over to where you load the boat. It is $75 for 10 minutes. There was no way i was going to try that i don't like heights. Hubby didn't want to either.
Ray and Hubby took off strolling the beach while Jan, Bev and I sat our chairs in the sand and enjoyed the beach and sun.
Well we tried to enjoy the view. This couple kept invading our view and let me just say that front side looked worse then this back side did. It's amazing what you can see at the beach. I do not know what people are thinking when they put on some of these suits.
On the other side we had this view. As you can see the beach was packed!
We had a wonderful view of the water when it wasn't invaded by others :)
They had several swimmers and kids enjoying the water. YES, i got in the water and it felt great!
This pigeon was even enjoying the beach he would walk around and right up to blankets searching for some food.
YES, that is my red neck hubby. I brought his swimming trunks but he has a sore on his knee so he thought it best to not to uncover it. He didn't get into the water he just enjoyed putting his toes in the sand.
This ship was wayyyy out there
On our way home we stopped a Mexican build your own place to eat. I had a burrito that was huge. I got brown rice, peppers and onions, pinto beans, lettuce, cheese, steak and mild tomato mix. The place was packed and we waited in a long line but we got lucky and found a table to sit and eat our dinner.
It was a great day and we had a blast at the beach although i do believe i may have gotten a bit too much sun! Oh that is gonna hurt for a few days. We came home and decided to go to church tonight so we could have tomorrow as a day to veg out at home and do nothing!!

After finding its name on an NSA target list, Yahoo understandably pledged to shore up its security efforts. The plan was to encrypt all information moving between its data centers while simultaneously giving users the option to use encryption for all of its online services. Now the company says it's almost there, explaining on its Tumblr page that data center traffic is now fully encrypted, Yahoo searches and homepage traffic defaults to HTTPS encryption and noting that webmail has been encrypted since January.
Users can also encrypt Yahoo News, Sports, Finance and other services by manually adding HTTPS before the site's URL. It's good progress, but there's more work to do. "This isn't a project where we'll ever check a box and be finished," Alex Stamos, Yahoo's new security Chief, explained. "Our fight to protect our users and their data is an on-going and critical effort." Next up? An encrypted build of Yahoo Messenger, due for release later this year. Check out Yahoo's official Tumblr for the full security update.
