My husband was working away from home, at one point and asked me to give him a call at 6 am to ensure he was awake.
I did as he requested. He picked up the phone and said, "Good, now call me back at eight."
"Why did you want me to call you at six if you weren't going to get out of bed until eight?" I asked.
"To make sure you were up", he replied.
Life's Like That... :DThursday, March 27, 2008

text: To get to Chile through the border in front of Mendoza is a nightmare. Hours of waiting and you cannot bring along food and herbs and all sorts of things. So be prepared for a long trip and a lot of waiting. Dry food and nuts are allowed, just don't put drugs in it, like they asked me! But obviously the answer was no, I didn't put drugs in my nuts! Still he tested it by randomly breaking a few. Valparaíso is situated on the coast of Chile in the middle of this strangely long but thin country. It really is a special place, also known as little San Francisco amongst sailors. Valparaíso is one of the most important seaports in Chile and has over two hundred thousand inhabitants. Valparaíso was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2003. A must see is Casa Museo La Sebastiana, from which the view over the city is unusually wide and crazy beautiful. The house was named after the architect and owned and decorated by the famous poet Pablo Neruda. We loved this house and the collection of art and objects Neruda had. Another fun thing to do after visiting this museum, is walk down to the centre passing the open museum (it is just an area) with a lot of graffiti and other nice objects to watch. Afterwards have a nice meal at a small restaurant called el Pimenton in the street named Cumming. The houses in Valparaíso are small and colourful. Valparaíso is built on several hill sides so prepare to climb a little, or instead use one of the old and traditional elevators in town to go up and down. The city offers great nightlife, a lot of fine restaurants and cafés, so take advantage. The government of Chile doesn't really believe in the whole summer-winter time concept, so they just choose to ignore it. So don't live by Apple's time registration! Otherwise you will end up being late in a neighbourhood that is not safe after dusk, like we did. We went to the oldest bar (1897) of Valparaíso, Liberty bar. It is traditionally a sailor's bar but nowadays students like to drink a beer at the end of the day as well. A fun place where on Sunday, every single person in the bar was either too young to drink or drunk. Like a movie we watched how people gathered, drank and argued. It is a recommendable place, Valparaíso is different, historical and a lot of fun! Just go there..

This Quick Guide sets out the legal requirements on local authorities and other bodies proposing changes to the configuration of schools (such as closures or amalgamations) and the procedures which must be followed. The process was changed by Assembly legislation in 2013 and subsequent Welsh Government guidance (The School Organisation Code) which represented a shift towards final decision-making by local authorities themselves rather than the Welsh Government, other than in stated exceptions.

64 forensic laboratories from 34 European countries are members of the European Network of Forensic Science Institutions (ENFSI). The network's objective is to promote and coordinate cooperation between Europe's forensic institutions and to strive for common levels of quality.
The Forensic Science and Examination Bureau, a division of the Estonian Police, was accepted as the network's 35th member in May 1998. Becoming a member provided the bureau with a lot of information about new technology and methods that were being adopted in the field. Since 01.01.2008 Estonian Forensic Science Institute continued as an official member of ENFSI.
During 2011 (May) - 2015 (May) Director of EFSI Üllar Lanno was selected to join the ENFSI managment board. First two years he was Chairman designate after hes was selected to be the ENFSI Chairman.
Robert Antropov, the former police director of what is now the Estonian Forensic Institute, was a member of the board from 2000 to 2003.
The management board is charged with the responsibility of coordinating the activities of ENFSI and its working groups, preparing and forwarding any information received to laboratories, organising meetings, determining the development directions for the network, developing its quality system and arranging training, also training- and continuing education for experts.
The management board of ENFSI visited Estonia in November 2001 to hold a meeting. One of their goals in coming here was to investigate the possibility of holding the annual ENFSI conference in Tallinn in 2003. They also visited the Estonian Forensic Institute's newly opened laboratories, which had been renovated and reconstructed as part of the Phare "Development of Forensic Science and Forensic Examination" project. It is very important to the network that new, modern forensic laboratories are opened throughout Europe so as to significantly improve the quality of forensic examination. The opening of the institute's new laboratory premises was the third event of its kind in Europe. Other laboratories had been opened in 2001 in Linköping in Sweden and in Birmingham in the United Kingdom.
The 15thannual ENFSI conference was held in Tallinn in 2003 and opened by then Minister of the Interior Margus Leivo.
Over five days more than 70 attendees from outside of Estonia gained not only new knowledge of their profession but also insight into local culture and traditions and first-hand experience of the sights of Tallinn and the island of Naissaar. The network's annual conference is an event at which recent events in the field of forensic science in Europe and around the world are reviewed, new members are elected to management bodies and activities for the coming year are planned.
The 23rd annual ENFSI conference was held second time in Tallinn in 2011. The conference was introduced by Secretary General of Ministry of Justice Margus Sarapuu.
The 23rd annual ENFSI conference focused mainly on education and training. European Police College and European Judicial Training Network were included in the centric discussion. Over 80 participants in ENFSI AM 2011 conference gathered new information about ENFSI and learned Estonian national traditions, within the programme and cultural event of European Capital of Culture.
In 13-16th of May 2012 EFSI hosted together with Police and Boarder Guard Board collegues ENFSI Scene of Crime Working Group Annual Meeting in Tartu. Over 40 crime scene officers and criminalists gathered together to discuss the most outstanding techniques and visions under the main topic - Crime Scene 2.0

Most weeks following this basic pattern* :
Music playing quietly while people find a seat and settle in.
The Pastor welcomes the congregation to worship.
Opening Meditation
A piece of music played or sung by the choir to help people prepare themselves for worship.
Call to Worship
A responsive reading calling people to worship. Anyone able is invited to stand.
Hymn or Song sung by congregation
The song will most likely be in the hymnal (song book) and the hymn number will be in the bulletin and the words will also be projected on the screen.
Prayer of Invocation
Prayer of Invocation: A prayer read from the bulletin that requests God's Presence in our worship.
Song of Praise
We sing a short piece of music glorifying God.
Passing the Peace
During this time in the service we remember Jesus' promise by greeting one another with the words, "The peace of Christ be with you." The response is most often, "And also with you." This time draws to an end as music begins softly playing and people return to their seats.
First Reading
The worship leader reads a passage from the Bible
The worship leader offers a short reflection on the passage. These are thematically linked with what the Sermon.
Choral Anthem/Special Music
During the summer we have people providing special music for the service. The rest of the year our choir sings most Sundays.
Responsive Reading
Typically a Psalm, this time gives the congregation another opportunity to participate fully in worship.
A Time for the Young at Heart
Children 12 and under are invited to come to the front of the worship space (if they would like) for a lesson just for them. After this, children are allowed to go off to Sunday School.
Second Reading
A scripture passage read by the Pastor and is the scripture the sermon is based upon.
This is the Pastor's message for the week. It can take many forms but the general goal is to connect the message from scripture with our lives today in meaningful ways. You can hear many archived sermons by visiting the Sermons Podcast page.
Hymn or Song sung by the congregation
The song will most likely be in the hymnal (song book) and the hymn number will be in the bulletin and the words will also be projected on the screen.
Time to Share
This is an opportunity for members of the community to share their prayer requests with the pastor and the whole congregation. Feel free to speak up and share a prayer request of your own if you would like.
Pastoral Prayer
Prayer spoken by the Pastor.
Lord's Prayer
The prayer taken from Jesus' Sermon on the Mount as recorded in Matthew chapter 6. It is spoken in unison, printed in the bulletin and projected on the screen.
This only happens on the first Sunday of each month and on special occasions. There are detailed instructions in the bulletin and projected at the front. You can participate if you would like or pass if you prefer. It is open. You are welcome. But it is not mandatory if you are not comfortable.
Call to Offering
This is the announcement that we will be taking the collection from the congregation. This is where the church gets its funding to support our vital ministries and mission work.
A brief song thanking God. People rise as we begin to sing.
Hymn or Song sung by the congregation
The song will most likely be in the hymnal (song book) and the hymn number will be in the bulletin and the words will also be projected on the screen.
Benediction/Musical Benediction
A benediction is a pastoral blessing, prayer or final thought. Sometimes the Pastor offers the benediction and then one is sung by the choir or congregation.
Music playing while people leave the worship space. The Pastor and the member who served as "Worship Leader" or "Liturgist" will be at the door to the worship space to greet folks as they leave. At this point there is usually coffee and/or snacks in the Gathering Area or Fellowship Hall for people to have while they are chatting and catching up.
*The last Sunday of each month is Impact Sunday.

[Prince will] be forgoing his guitar in favor of a more intimate piano for a just-announced, globe-spanning new tour. The Prince Spotlight: Piano & A Microphone Tour — which is rumored to make stops in a dozen countries in less than a month — will feature solo Prince performances where he only wields (you guessed it) a piano and a microphone. "Why do this now? For several reasons. For starters it is a challenge," he told Cultura, who broke the news. "I rarely get bad reviews because this is something that's been perfected for over thirty years. You have to try new things. With the piano it is more naked, more pure. You can see exactly what you get."As a fan of his guitar playing, I hate this. As a believer in Advancement, I love this. Then again, if his piano looks like this (below), everything will probably be okay.

1864 $3 NGC Plus Three Dollar Gold Piece NGC
The $3 Indian Princess gold coin was authorized for creation via the Mint Act of February 21, 1853. Although they were minted during the years of the Liberty head series of gold coins, they are referred to as Indian Princesses. Liberty is depicted on these coins as an Indian princess with her hair tightly curled above her neck and her head crowned with a circle of feathers. The band on her forehead is inscribed with the word Liberty. The reverse design features a wreath of tobacco, wheat, corn and cotton encircling the denomination Three Dollars and the date of mintage.
The reverse depicted a wreath of tobacco, wheat, corn and cotton with a plant at top bearing two conical seed masses. The original wax models of this wreath still exist on brass discs in a Midwestern collection. There are two boldly different reverse types, the small DOLLARS appearing only in 1854 and the large DOLLARS on coins of 1855-89.
Three Dollar Indian Princess (1854-1889)Designer: James B. Longacre
Composition: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
Weight: 5.015 grams
Diameter: 20.50 millimeters
Edge: Reeded

Little different from Middle Eastern extremists, the Bundy militias and their ilk confabulate an alternate world to justify their rage at loss of status and a feeling of societal betrayal. Times are changing and the old men and their older power structures are collapsing, crushed by new ideas and youth.
Once, not long ago, the cowboy and the frontier U.S. west were idealized as portraying American values. The legendary independence of westerners and cowboys hid a strong dose of government spending and investment. The movie and television heroes of my youth were invariably western and emphasized the quiet man with a gun rounding up the bad guys.
Heroes like Roy Rogers and Sky King carried guns and brought bad guys to justice. Later in my youth, Twilight Zone and Star Trek were the shows that captured my attention. Television that appealed more to an urban kid.
The Andy Griffith Show and similar programs began to portray country living differently and less violent. The country was changing when, by the 1950s, even the South and the Midwest were mostly urbanized. The myth of the self-reliant rancher and farmer was being subtly replaced with laughter and nostalgia.
The areas of the country last to host urban majorities remain the most conservative. Reagan, a former western actor himself, knew how to speak to people who felt threatened by the urbanization of America. The myth of independent action strangely coupled with the need to follow strong leaders created the conservative coalition now being torn asunder in the presidential primaries.
The Republican presidential candidates are feeding outrage stoked at the speed of the nation's changing values and traditions. Their audience and their scapegoats are changing quickly also. While their followers decry 'big government', the issue is much broader now. Creating seats at the table for women and minorities, does not steal chairs from white males but it most certainly dilutes their influence and perceived value. In a blog some time ago, I wrote what I thought was happening.
Workers are being crushed from both sides -- more work for the same pay, while taxes creep steadily up. The government empowers corporations to impose demands on small businesses and workers that enable a race to the economic bottom. The Cruz/Trump success is getting these small business people and workers to blame those below them on the economic ladder rather than the government and corporate elite who are the actual culprits.
Republican presidential candidates now seize upon the message that 'hard working Americans' are being slighted and robbed by government policies. The message works because it is true. Where the blame lies is the real misdirection. While immigrants, minorities and 'takers' are blamed, the real perpetrators, business executives and politicians, are heralded as the saviors rather than the cause.
Business and conservative political agendas merge to form a mutually self-serving agenda that stifles competition and creates oligopolies. This coalition shares the profits among themselves and transfers the costs to the worker and taxpayers. Working diligently, corporations and governments have denied wage and hour protections for employees while shredding the safety net designed to protect workers. The cost to the taxpayer is huge.
This sleight of hand and misdirection is possible because of the conservative base's already devout belief that government is the problem and business is the answer. The Bundy militia terrorism (it is no longer a peaceful protest when you bring guns and threaten to use them.) against the government is a blatant attempt to steal land from the taxpayers. Land designed to benefit the very ranchers now attempting the theft. Essentially, they demand more corporate theft under the guise of 'American Values'.
Democrats, liberals and moderates must demonstrate how the Republican and conservative embrace of Reaganism causes government to be the problem. Democratic candidates for president should address this problem that citizens know to be true - then explain how to change the process with the peoples' support and votes. In the New York Times this week, two columns exposed how corporations and big government are robbing the taxpayer.
In Nevada, the state legislature tripled fees for homeowners with solar panels at the behest of energy company lobbyists. This big government move makes solar panels less attractive and breaks previous agreements to homeowners.
In North Carolina, factory farmers recently passed legislation stifling both first amendment rights and whistleblower protections. This big government legislation may increase consumer health risks/costs and guarantee factory farm profits. Apparently, consumers cannot know where their food comes from and how it gets there.
Americans, especially middle aged males among them, long for a return to fairness and equal opportunity. Democrats should embrace this desire and promise to build on it. Facts will not convince them but identifying the real takers just may.

Angel Number 98
Angel number 98 comes as a sign from your angels that you can attract the abundance that you have always wanted by staying true to your spiritual path.
Your angels are guiding you to the ideal manifestation of your potential by helping you unfold an incredible destiny full of philanthropy, humanitarianism, and generosity.
Angel number 98 may appear in many different ways in your experience, including as an important date, in a significant address or phone number, or in a series of monetary transactions.
When this powerful angel number appears again and again in your experience, know that you are on the verge of attracting the success and abundance that you have been working toward.
The Vibrational Meaning of Angel Number 98
Angel number 98 derives its meaning from the vibrational energies of the numbers 9 and 8. The numbers 9 and 8 are the two root numbers that resonate at the highest frequencies.
The number 9 is associated with using your gifts to serve a higher purpose in this life. When the vibration of number 9 becomes active in your life, you can be sure that you are on the verge of realizing your full potential.
The number 8 is the number of material abundance, professional success, wealth, and prosperity. When this vibration influences your situation, you are sure to achieve success in your endeavors and attract wealth and abundance as a result.
Since this is a time of great success, be sure to keep your mind aligned with your higher purpose so you only attract the outcomes that you desire.
Angel Number 98 and Law of Generosity
Angel number 98 may be seen as an expression of the vibration of the number 8. This is because 98 can be reduced to the root angel number 8 by adding its digits together: 9+8=17, 1+7=8.
In angel number 98 the energy of abundance is doubled, meaning that you will have the ability to attract the precise outcomes that you have always wanted.
When your guardian angels communicate with you using the number 98, know that they are currently at work creating the conditions necessary for the realization of your full potential.
It should also serve as a reminder to always stay positively focused and in alignment with Divine Source.
Once you have attracted the abundance that you desire into your life, it is important to share that wealth and prosperity with others. The more generous you are with your abundance, the more you will attract as a result.
Have you been seeing angel number 99 lately?

Addiction can be devastating, but with treatment, or rehab, recovery is possible. Unfortunately, the vast majority of people who need drug and alcohol addiction treatment don't get it.
According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, only about 10 percent of the people who need drug and alcohol addiction treatment receive it. That means nearly 20 million Americans age 12 and older miss out on treatment that may help them live healthy, sober lives.
Stigma sometimes prevents people from seeking drug and alcohol treatment for themselves or a loved one. About 10 percent of people who report needing addiction treatment say they don't seek it because they are afraid it might have a negative effect on their job, while 7 percent say they don't seek drug and alcohol addiction treatment because it might cause their neighbors and community to have a negative opinion of them.
(Karen was a high-powered attorney, and an alcoholic. John was a successful consultant and swim coach, and addicted to pain-killers.) Watch their stories, learn about their addiction treatment and see how stigma and shame kept them from seeking help sooner.
Sometimes parents delay seeking help for adolescent addicts because they aren't sure if a teen's drug use is addiction or just experimentation. (Watch Steve Pasierb, CEO of Partnership at Drugfree.org, and other experts discussing the issue of treatment for addiction for teens.)
Often the biggest challenge in getting a loved one into rehab is the addict's own inability to recognize the problem. Family members need to remember that the addict's brain is not functioning properly—it has been damaged by addiction—and he or she is not able to make rational decisions about the need for addiction treatment.
(Get tips for how to approach a loved one about drug and alcohol treatment.)
Treatment for addiction can occur in a variety of settings. It may include medication, psychotherapy and family therapy. The goal is to remove drugs or alcohol from a person's life, and address the physical, psychological, emotional and social issues that contributed to drug use.
Successful addiction treatment requires ongoing support and continued abstinence from drugs and alcohol. Relapse is common, but addiction experts stress that relapse does not mean failure. Recovery is still possible with additional treatment. In fact, the brain can actually repair itself and undo some of the damage caused by drug use, allowing addicts to enjoy happy, healthy lives.

This Thanksgiving wasn't a traditional one, but it's by far my favorite to date.
My family made the trip to Dallas and also brought two special visitors. My Nanny and Granddad came with mom and dad and got to meet their great granddaughter!
The past few years I have either hosted Thanksgiving or helped prepare the feast, but with a newborn we decided to go a different route. This year we catered Thanksgiving dinner and it may have been the best decision yet!! It was so nice to just spend time with the family and not worry about cooking prep or cleanup! I highly recommend giving it a try if you have a crazy schedule, life, or just don't want the stress!
After all of the celebrating on Thursday, Tyler and I got to talking and without a doubt this is the most "Thankful" Thanksgiving to date. I was holding our sweet baby, rocking her to sleep in the nursery and just was overwhelmed with how blessed we really are. I probably talk about that a lot lately, but I sincerely mean it. I'm so thankful for my family, my husband and our precious baby girl that arrived just in time to celebrate with us.
These are the days I never want to forget. Although we are so sleepy we can hardly stand and
some most days we wonder what we are actually doing... life is perfect! I am so thrilled because my favorite photographer in Dallas (who took our amazing maternity pics) reached out and we set up an in home newborn session.
Becca came to visit us when Ella Jane was only nine days old and captured some of the sweetest images of both her and our family!
I know I will treasure these pictures forever and I couldn't wait to share a few favorites with y'all.
ps had to save a few favorites for the Christmas card...
My favorite picture E V E R
We have been enjoying life as a family of three so much. Literally dreading tomorrow when Tyler goes back to work... but so thankful for our time together!
Barnett Family of T H R E E
all of our love...
So thankful for this little girl
If you are looking for someone to capture your sweet moments and memories in the DFW area check out
all the love from baby-land // 1 Thessalonians 5:18

American IRA Discusses the Different Types of Loans Available in a Self-Directed IRA
ASHEVILLE, NC / ACCESSWIRE / March 18, 2020 / When an investor holds a Self-Directed IRA, they open the possibility of investing in alternative retirement asset classes. Many of the most popular forms of assets within a Self-Directed IRA are within the real estate asset class. Others choose precious metals. But there's a very powerful form of investing-making loans-that some investors choose, and it can help diversify a portfolio. That's particularly true when utilizing different loan types, as a recent post at American IRA notes.
The Self-Directed IRA administration firm American IRA-which regularly posts information about Self-Directed IRAs and similar retirement topics-noted on its blog that there are a wide variety of loan types available for investors who want to use these loans within an IRA. For example, a business loan would qualify. In fact, many of the reasons for loans that many people are aware of could be used within a Self-Directed IRA, provided that the investor is not transacting loans with disqualified persons.
In an IRA, a "disqualified person" is a person of close relation who cannot transact with the investor's IRA. For example, an owner of a Self-Directed IRA who purchases rental real estate cannot then turn around and rent that property out to a spouse, or a son or daughter. Since loans are common between people who would otherwise be "disqualified persons" within an IRA, this is an important distinction to make.
"Loans can be a secure form of asset class," said Jim Hitt, CEO of American IRA, "at least as secure as any investment that carries a small amount of risk. But the reason so many retirement investors turn to loans in a Self-Directed IRA is that they're not always sure the stock market is going to give them returns on a year-over-year basis. With a loan, an investor has the option of selecting their own borrowers and creating passive income for their IRA."
For more information on the types of loans available with a Self-Directed IRA, interested parties can contact American IRA at 866-7500-IRA. For more information, visit www.AmericanIRA.com to read the blog or to find out more about Self-Directed IRAs in general.
American IRA, LLC was established in 2004 by Jim Hitt, CEO in Asheville, NC.
The mission of American IRA is to provide the highest level of customer service in the self-directed retirement industry. Jim Hitt and his team have grown the company to over $400 million in assets under administration by educating the public that their Self-Directed IRA account can invest in a variety of assets such as real estate, private lending, limited liability companies, precious metals and much more.
As a Self-Directed IRA administrator, they are a neutral third party. They do not make any recommendations to any person or entity associated with investments of any type (including financial representatives, investment promoters or companies, or employees, agents or representatives associated with these firms). They are not responsible for and are not bound by any statements, representations, warranties or agreements made by any such person or entity and do not provide any recommendation on the quality profitability or reputability of any investment, individual or company. The term "they" refers to American IRA, located in Asheville and Charlotte, NC and Atlanta, GA."

Understanding Your D&B Business Credit Score
Your Paydex score from Dun and Bradstreet is one of the first things a prospective lender will look at after pulling your business's credit score. Basically, you Paydex score tells lenders and suppliers how long you take to pay your bills.
More precisely, the Paydex score is a dollar-weighted average of how long your take to pay your creditors. By being a weighted average, it means that larger balances will affect your score more.
For example, being 90 days past due on a $50,000 payment will offset paying ten $5,000 bills on time. The maximum score is 100, and the lowest is 0. Most lenders want to see a score of 65-70 or higher.
This score translates into paying most bills within 20 days of their due date. If you pay every bill precisely on time, your score will be 80. That means that if your bill is 30 days net, and you pay on day 30, you have paid precisely on time and not one day early.
To increase your score beyond 80, you must pay ahead of time. In other words, if your creditor gives you 30 days to pay, and you pay in 20, then you have paid 10 days in advance. This will push your Paydex score above 80.
D&B will not assign a Paydex score for your business until at least 4 different companies have reported your payment history (positive or negative). Also, D&B only takes into account the most recent 875 reported payments.
This is a lot of payments, so most companies won't even have the maximum 875 payments on their record. However, know that if you have late payments early on, that eventually they can fall off of your record.
You Only Get Credit For Suppliers That Report To D&B
It might seem obvious after thinking about it, but it needs to be said:
you business gets no credit for paying bills on time if your supplier doesn't report to D&BIf you are trying to build your business credit, you must identify suppliers and vendors that report payment frequency to D&B. Typically, larger suppliers and vendors report. Very small companies don't often have the time to spend reporting.There are several services that offer lists of suppliers and vendors that report to D&B, allowing you to choose reporting vendors to establish your business's credit. However, reporting credit scores is less important than the business factors in choosing a supplier: price, reliability, quality, etc.
In other words, you should first narrow down your choice of vendors to ones whose price, quality and service you can rely on. If you have several good suppliers to choose from, then you can ask which reports to D&B and choose accordingly. It would be a bad idea to choose a vendor solely because they report to D&B if they have higher prices, poor service, or poor quality.
Paydex Business Credit Scoring Chart
|Paydex Score
|Slow to 14 Days
|Slow to 21 Days
|Slow to 30 Days
|Slow to 60 Days
|Slow to 90 Days
|Slow to 120 Days
Raising Your D&B Paydex Score
It should be fairly obvious how to raise your score. First, do business with vendors that report to Dun & Bradstreet
(subject to the vendor also meeting your general business quality standards).
Secondly, pay all your bills within two weeks of their due date or earlier. This will ensure you have a score of 70 or higher–which is usually good enough for most lenders and suppliers.
Thirdly, because your Paydex credit score is dollar-weighted, you can increase your score dramatically by paying off a large balance early. Suppose you have a relatively poor score of 50 after $100,000 of reported transactions.
If you have a new $100,000 transaction coming up, pay it immediately after incurring it. This will give you a 100 score for the new $100,000. When combined with your existing $100,000 at 50, you will boost your score up to a 75.

text: When you fall asleep early wondering whether you are going to make a 6AM run to the airport or a later one (depending on the plane they catch) and the phone rings in the middle of the night and it's an airport official with a very thick accent and in your sleepy haze you have no idea what she's telling you except that she has the names of three of your dearest treasures, your heart skips a beat. Or two. Or three. I think she said there are weather delays in either Portland or Seattle and she needed to help them find another flight. Did I have a number where they could be reached? I think that means that they are not yet on any airplane. Really the only thing I know for certain is that Mike's cell phone is dead and this is the busiest day of the year for air travel. And that a United official from India is truly sorry that she woke me and the crying baby in my bed. And that it's not so easy to get back to sleep after the airlines calls in the middle of night. Not so easy at all.

"Biologically, silent stroke is the same as regular stroke, except there are no obvious [external] signs," says Dr. Adam Brickman of the Taub Institute for Research on Alzheimer's Disease and the Aging Brain at Columbia University Medical Center in New York. But that's not to say silent strokes are not significant, or dangerous.
Discovering a Link
Brickman recently piloted a study of 658 people without dementia age 65 or over. His team conducted MRI scans of the subjects' brains and gave them memory, language, and other neurological tests. The study's results confirmed that people who had a shrunken hippocampus, the area of the brain responsible for memory, performed less well on the tests. But there was more: Subjects whose MRI results showed evidence of silent strokes, about a quarter of the group, also scored less well on the memory tests, even if they did not have a shrunken hippocampus.
Brickman believes the results point to silent stroke as an independent risk factor for developing conditions in which memory is impaired, like Alzheimer's disease. "Our research finding led us to consider that Alzheimer's may also have a vascular component," he says. "In some ways, that would be good news."
The incidence of silent strokes and shrinking of the hippocampus were separately associated with memory loss in Brickman's study. If people do more to prevent silent strokes, then, they may be more successful in warding off dementia and Alzheimer's as well. "Our results support stroke prevention as a means for staving off memory problems," he says. "If we can control all those risk factors, then we think we might be able to reduce the burden of Alzheimer's or minimize the risk."
Brickman's research makes the case that treating your heart well and reducing your risk factors for stroke can help you stave off Alzheimer's disease as well. "Tried and tested treatments can reduce the risk of stroke greatly," says Dr. Aneesh Singhal of Harvard Medical School. Here are five things you can do to limit your risk:
Control your blood pressure. "Treating hypertension can reduce your risk of stroke by 30%," Singhal says. High pressure in your blood vessels can cause them to burst in the brain, causing a hemorrhagic stroke. Get your blood pressure checked regularly; reduce salt consumption if it's high or borderline –
"even borderline hypertension is critical to control," Brickman says; take any prescribed medications regularly; and exercise – it keeps your entire cardiovascular system running smoothly. "The higher proportion of their life people spend exercising, the better," Brickman says.
Lower your cholesterol levels. Cholesterol can block arteries and prevent them from delivering oxygen to the brain, so a high cholesterol level represents a primary risk factor for stroke. "Getting more fiber into your diet is crucial," Singhal says, "particularly in the form of fresh fruits and vegetables. This has a positive impact on reducing cholesterol." If your cholesterol runs high, consult your doctor about appropriate medications and take them as prescribed. And, again: Exercise.
Treat your Type II diabetes. Diabetics are at greater risk for stroke in part because they often have other related health problems such as high cholesterol, hypertension, obesity, or a type of irregular heartbeat known as atrial fibrillation. If you have Type II diabetes, avoiding sugar, eating healthier, and losing weight can help alleviate risks, as can routinely checking your blood sugar levels and taking prescribed medications regularly. Effective treatment of Type II diabetes, Singhal says, can reduce the risk factor for stroke by 25%.
Quit smoking. Smoking has been linked to atherosclerosis, or hardening of the arteries, so quitting reduces your chance of stroke due to the inability of inflexible blood vessels to deliver oxygen to the brain.

Chrissanth Greene-Gross is motivated by the struggle to capture the beauty of the life force in its infinite forms--particularly in the human figure and the landscape. She is thrilled by the challenge of working from life, as it calls forth the honesty, purity and urgency that accompany true presence in the moment.
Emily Kotchen
Oil Painting, Drawing, Assemblage
Mark making is my zen. I love manipulating materials—some conventional and others not. No matter if I am working in paint or pencil, thread or found objects, I am still concerned with the same goal—to create poignant moments through an economy of shapes and strokes.
I think of my work as fragments. They are minute representations of intimate details often overlooked in daily routine. In addition to the element of time present through the magnification, distortion and amplification of imagery, sometimes there are visual cues or references to personal nostalgia.
Helene Ocko

Helene Ocko is an artist from Westchester, New York. She studied textile design at the Fashion Institute of Technology, and Fine Arts at Boston University. She has studied contemporary painting with David Fox at the Westchester Center for the Arts. Helene has taught art at the early childhood and elementary education levels, and has owned multiple craft businesses in silk painting, jewelry design, and home decor.
Helene's specialties include abstract and floral paintings, and she uses nature to inspire her whimsical and colorful work. She loves experimenting with acrylic paint and mixed media, and often uses unconventional tools to create movement and texture.

With advanced degrees in molecular biology, Shobha Vanchiswar is an award-winning artist, poet and author, photographer, garden columnist and prize-winning garden designer. Her art has been exhibited at various locations in Westchester County, NY and in New York City. Some of her works are in private collections.
She is a member of the New York Art Students League. Selected art work is available in giclee prints, note cards and fabric designs.
"Nature is the muse for all my creative efforts. Everything about this big, beautiful earth fascinates me. There is magic everywhere and every day is a miracle.How, what and why things are the way they are intrigues me. Simply put, I study life.
My paintings, writings and gardens are the convergence of both my artistic sensibilities and my scientific thinking. Beyond the visual, there is always a narrative in my work. Something to enjoy, something to learn and something to think about. In interpreting their own version of the narrative, the viewer/reader discovers a little more about her/himself. I try to expose the universality of the human condition. What is dear or interesting to me is in all probability dear and interesting to others.
My botanical works are not scientific illustrations. Instead, they are botanical 'portraits' and represent but one member of a specific family. They are intended to give the viewer some insight and pique their curiosity. Only constant interaction with the actual plant itself will lead to real understanding and true appreciation."
Nan Zinaman
Artisan, Beadweaver,
Jewelry Maker
Exciting, colorful, distinctive and versatile; these describe both my jewelry and me!
A lifetime of creative expression through my handiwork combined with a career in fashion retailing led to the concept for nanz – a collection of handcrafted necklaces, bracelets, and earrings. Inspired by color, nanz reflects my passion for gardening, my love of the Caribbean, as well as my strong practical side. I am always moving forward to broaden my creative strokes. I focus on the individual rather than the masses. My unending patience and attention to detail added to my tireless energy all become a part of each creation. My collection is always evolving as I add new pieces.
Through my work as a figurative painter, I explore form with light, shadow and line but most importantly, through color. My oils always begin with drawing in a bold and energetic style reminiscent of the Impressionists Degas and Lautrec. Horses are a frequent theme, as they allow me to combine the spontaneity of drawing with the colorful vibrancy of paint to capture my subject's energy and raw power.
I hold a BFA from Carnegie Mellon University and have worked professionally as a graphic designer and as an Art Director in NYC advertising agencies. My oils and monotypes have been widely exhibited in the NYC, Westchester County, and CT areas. I am a member of the National Association of Women Artists, Mamaroneck Artists Guild, Ridgefield Guild of Artists', and the Greenwich Artists Association.

I have traveled to France, Italy & Greece to photograph the subjects for my paintings. What captivates me are country landscapes and waterways filled with saturated color, light, and shadow. In my work I emphasize the characteristics of the subject, making the painted images more dramatic than in reality.
The paintings include landscapes, buildings, boats and water - worlds filled with sunlight, colorful gardens, canals and villas. My work depicts fields of lavender and poppies, shuttered dwellings, cobblestone streets, stone walls, fountains, flower markets, rowboats and gondolas. Canals lined with colorful boats and buildings are among my favorite subjects.
My work has been displayed in galleries shows, restaurants, private homes and businesses.
Barbara Dunn
Are you an artist in Northern Westchester, NY and interested in joining our guild?
Architecturally inspired, delicately stitched: that is the motto for my art. The core of my art is deeply rooted in my Russian heritage and the architectural imagery of St. Petersburg and New York City, coupled with the use of recycled materials such as paper, plastics, and vintage fabrics. Computer photo manipulation, and intense hand and machine stitching, and translucent effects are the techniques I favor.
I am a member of the Surface Design Association, Katonah Museum Artists Association and Studio Art Quilt Associates

Debra Y. Graham
Collage, Drawing, Photography
My personal and professional journeys have bestowed upon me a generalized curiosity with how the whole may or may not be greater than the sum of its parts.
My work whether in collage, drawing or photography explores this theme of dynamic tension between line, form and movement. In my drawings you can see both the kinetic energy of multiple swirling fields and the gestalt of the piece. My collage work incorporates language, media and global shapes and speaks to the complex relationships between minutia and the whole. In these mediums one can see the dialectic between the separate parts existing independently and as components of a symphony.
Debby graduated cum allude from Syracuse University in 1977 with a BFA degree. She was awarded honors for outstanding excellence in art 1975, 1976, and 1977, as is a recipient of a Ford Foundation Grant for her creative use of materials in 1976.
Galleries in Syracuse, New York and New York City have exhibited her work and she remains part of Polaroid's international traveling collection since 1987. Her work is displayed in private homes and prominent offices in New York City, Westchester, New York and Bridgehampton, New York.
Barbara L. Pickel
On my Swedish floor looms, I design and create delicate scarves, warm blankets, absorbent towels, thick rugs, or cloth for sewing. I can use fine linen, thick or thin cotton, wool, silk or bamboo fibers. I can vary the structure - how the warp and the weft threads interlace - resulting in weft-faced, warp-faced or balanced weaves. Some structures are familiar, such as twill, herringbone or plainweave. Others are specific to a culture or geographic region. Each new warp is an opportunity to create something wonderful.
I learned to weave from Becky Ashenden at Vavstuga Weaving School, Shelburne Falls, MA in the Scandinavian tradition, making utilitarian, yet beautiful textiles for the home. I also studied Japanese textile techniques such as indigo dyeing, shibori and katazome with Bryan Whitehead in Fujino, Japan. In addition to the Northern Westchester Artists Guild, I am a member of Complex Weavers and the Handweavers Guild of America.
Peggy Davidson Post
Pastel, Oil, Watercolor Painting
As I walk every day through local parks and nature preserves, as well as on my travels, I look at the vistas, the light, shadow and details of the natural world. It sustains and inspires me.

I graduated from California College of the Arts in 1977. My work has been exhibited in many places including The National Arts Club and Salmagundi Club in NYC, Museums in Connecticut, and various galleries. Awards won in watercolor, pastel and oil. A credentialed teacher, I've taught art and lectured in more than 30 colleges, schools and art centers, and through my studio, The Artist's Place.

Donna Soszynska
Sculpture, Ceramics
My sculptural ceramics are conceptual prototypes for much larger pieces. Conceived to be on a monumental scale (8' to 20' in height) with soft gentle curves like those of the human body.
Their surfaces are smooth, inviting the viewer's touch. These pieces are part plant and part creature, organic shapes of human consciousness. They are choreographed dances captured and frozen; airy and solid, breathing quietly and pulsing madly. Along side my ceramics, I make fun and funky functional - one of kind vases, trays and bowls. My most well known purchaser is President Bill Clinton, who bought one of my ikebana inspired pieces.
Calabash (hard shell gourds) is another medium I work with. For over 25 years I have painted, wood-burned and carved calabash vessels. The vast array of shapes and sizes gives me endless inspiration. I have sold 1000's of vessels to galleries, museum shops, artisan boutiques and national catalogs, and been featured on the cover of The Complete Book of Gourd Craft.
Leslie Weissman
Printmaker, Painter
My artwork takes a critical view of social and cultural issues based upon suburban life. In my work, I examine the boundaries that we give ourselves and those that are created by the communities and networks in which we find ourselves. By observing the suburban landscape from areal images I enjoy the conceptual juxtaposition of the planned suburban utopia and the potential dystopia created when we no longer want to just blend into our surrounds.
In my monotypes and paintings I layer paint in an effort to explore the complexities and layers of boundaries and constraints we are faced with in our daily life and our relationships to our environment, communities and the people we encounter. The grid systems of suburban developments are the springboard for my work in this series.
My work includes both abstraction, the use of words and figurative imagery. During my research and development of one series of work new areas of interest arise and lead to the next body of work, always related to and continually evolving my exploration of our relationship to self and community. Currently I am also developing a suburban garbage project; photographing our discarded objects in their new environment and exploring the relationship between nature and conspicuous consumption.

My impressionistic wet into wet paintings are a response to the broad visual experiences I have especially while traveling. They capture the vitality of those special paintable moments. I always carry my camera with me. My broad subject matter includes people, animals, lighthouse landscapes and florals. I love to paint using vivid colors and rich textures.

Hsitki Gulergun
Fine Artist, Freelance Designer
Sitki Gulergun is a working fine artist and freelance designer residing in Westchester, New York. Sitki has a rich cultural and international background having grown up in the port city of Mersin, Turkey, and spending several years studying fine art, textile design, and fashion illustration. He spent three years studying fine art at Oxford before moving on to textile design at the Croydon School of Art and finally receiving his masters in fashion textiles, fashion illustration, and museum research from Saint Martin's School of Art in London. His professional career includes art direction for Oscar de la Renta scarves in the 1980s, nearly two decades of freelance textile design for Ralph Lauren, and the ongoing creation of his diverse collection of paintings, drawings, and textiles. Sitki's most important traits as an artist are his versatility, and of course, his passion for creating. He adores all styles, periods and mediums — from impressionism to his own style of modern constructivist; or from rich, colorful oils to simple graphite, and everything in between.
Rachel Goldsmith uses pens, paintbrushes and the 3Doodler 3D Printing Pen as tools to record the repetitive movements of her hand—a mind-clearing practice that yields intricate artwork. She is inspired by 2 sets of contrasts: in the environment, the contrast between man-made and nature; and in materials, the contrast between the control she has over the media and how the media naturally interact with each other. The scientific, almost stringent and exact, aspects of the environment are reflected in her obsessive attention to detail while the spontaneous aspects of nature are present in her organic and fluid compositions. The resulting artworks engage the tension between science and art as well as technology and handicraft.
Goldsmith received her Masters of Art & Design Education Degree from Pratt Institute in 2007 and her Bachelor of Fine Arts and Bachelor of Arts Degrees from Michigan in 2003. In addition to winning several awards, she was commissioned by 3Doodler to create a lamp for MoMA Design Store. Her work, including her Fabergé Big Egg, is included in various private collections.

Jill Krutick
Modern Painter
I am a modern, American painter, inspired by Impressionists, including Monet and Van Gogh, as well as by abstract expressionists, including Rothko. My lifelong fascination of color, texture, shapes and light has shaped my artistic views. Often beginning a work with two or three colors in mind, each canvas is a journey of exploration and discovery. By layering, scraping and reworking the oil paint often with a palette knife, each work may be naturalistic, or by pure chance, combined with the action of emotional forces. I borrow much of my painted imagery from extensive eco travels and nature, which highlight the interplay between abstraction and realism.
The Ice Cube Series, born from the shapes around me, became a study in the tension between simplicity and variety. Shaped like a large box framed by a canvas, the oil on canvas works capture the rawness of texture and color in its most basic form. I continue to explore the relationship between color and texture in a variety of geometric and abstract expressionist styles. The paintings often reveal glimpses of recognizable forms, which uncover insights into a viewer's emotional state as well my own.
A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and New York University Stern School, my work has been exhibited in private and public collections across the country, including galleries in Westchester, Philadelphia and New York City. Member of The National Arts Club, Art Students League and Katonah Museum Artists Association.

Mary Tooley Parker
After a career in dance in New York City, and then in publishing at Vanity Fair and GQ magazines, I moved to rural Northern Westchester County. I then began pursuing an interest in textiles of different forms while raising a family. My art background has its foundation in dance, and reaches for that level of expression and physicality. My goal is a technical and physical expression of inner energy and connection, but one that lasts longer than any movement possibly can. My textile compositions have been exhibited in juried art shows in New York City, New York State, and Connecticut. I am a trustee on the Board of the Westchester County Historical Society and the Westchester Area Basketmakers Guild and a member of the National Association of Women Artists and the Katonah Museum Artists Association. I am honored to have been awarded a New York Foundation for the Arts Fellowship in 2015.
Anna-Maria Stromberg
My decision to become a photographer was when I got my Nikon F1 film camera from my father. I started taking pictures of everything I saw, mostly nature but also people. I began my studies at Gotland's School of Photography in Sweden and as my knowledge grew so did my skill and desire. I moved to the United States where I completed my studies, graduating from the Art Institute of Boston with BFA, majoring in photography.
My passion for photographing nature and people has always stemmed from an interest and constant awareness of how we perceive ourselves, and more importantly, how we long to be perceived in order to be accepted.
Nature reminds me where we all came from and how nothing is perfect and doesn't have to be. It's a place where I'm aloud to use all my senses without judgments. Many times hidden, I find what I call miracles underneath the actual subjects. Most times they transforms into characters and in return develops into a story.
Through the use of color, light, form, environment and details, my intention is to penetrate beyond the accepted conventions of society through what is the most beautiful and powerful force we have.
My goal is to create Fine Art Photographs. A work of art for me is primarely the product of a person, not of a machine. A photograph printed straight from the original capture, either film or digital is unsatisfying and therefor after I take the photograph, I enhance the photograph according to what my memories of the original scene was. I focus on the individual colors, contrast, lights and darks and work towards making them the exact tonalities that that I desire.
I love what I do and I'm convinced that achieving great results comes from being fearless and trusting the moment. The end result is of course about the subject but the process is about the story and my relationships to them, combining my vision with what they present in that moment.

Fighting Like a Viking
Yesterday was an interesting day for me. I was stabbed in the chest multiple times, cut open from navel to neck, dismembered, and impaled upon a spear all in the space of two hours… and it hurt… a lot. What does this really mean?
