Provisions may be made within the campground for safari-type camping and affinity group tent camping, provided that the necessary space, sanitary, and health facilities are available.
The Town Council and its agents are hereby authorized and directed to make such inspections as are necessary to determine satisfactory compliance with this chapter and regulations issued hereunder.
The Town Council and its agents shall have the power to enter at reasonable times upon any private or public property for the purpose of inspecting and investigating conditions relating to the enforcement of this chapter and regulations issued hereunder.
It shall be the duty of the owners of the camping and travel trailer parks to give the Town Council and its agents free access to such premises at reasonable times for the purpose of inspection.
It shall be the duty of every occupant of a camping and travel trailer park to give the owner thereof or his agent or employees access to any part of such camping and travel trailer park or its premises at reasonable times for the purpose of making such repairs or alterations as are necessary to effect compliance with this chapter and regulations issued hereunder, or with any lawful order issued pursuant to the provisions of this chapter.
In the event that the Town Council or its agents are refused entry to camping and travel trailer parks for the purpose of conducting an inspection, or are refused access to places located in such parks from which the general public is prohibited, the Town Council and its agents shall generally be required to first obtain a warrant authorizing the inspection before proceeding with same, unless emergency or other conditions exist which constitute adequate excuse for not seeking to obtain a warrant prior to entry.
The warrant which issues should indicate the scope of the inspection and the purpose therefor. The inspection should not exceed the limits set forth in the warrant.
Warrants should issue upon a showing that there is probable cause to believe a violation of the chapter exists or, upon a showing that an inspection would be in compliance with the general administrative plan for enforcement of the chapter. A sworn statement by a Town Council member or one of its agents (including without limitation, the Building Inspector or police officers) that a warrant is sought for the purpose of ascertaining compliance with or verifying matters pertaining to specific permits, licenses, and/or applications therefor shall constitute a sufficient showing under this section.
Applications for warrants should indicate the specific purpose, scope, and manner of conducting the inspection requested.
The Town Council hereby establishes a general administrative plan for the enforcement of the chapter which involves periodic inspections of camping and travel trailer parks with the Town on a monthly basis to ascertain compliance with and verification of matters pertaining to specific permits, licenses, and/or applications therefor.
The Town Council may initiate a hearing to determine whether there has been a violation of any provisions of this chapter or a material change in the conditions or circumstances presumed to exist at the time an application for a permit or license was originally considered, by giving notice of such alleged violation and hearing date to the person to whom the permit or license was issued, as hereinafter provided. Such notice shall:
Be in writing.
Include a statement of the reasons for its issuance.
Allow a reasonable time for the performance of any act it requires.
Be served upon the owner or his agents as the case may require; provided that such notice or order shall be deemed to have been properly served upon such owner or agent when a copy thereof has been sent by registered mail to his last known address; or when he has been served with such notice by any other method authorized or required by the laws of this state.
Contain an outline of remedial action, which, if taken, will effect compliance with the provisions of this chapter and regulations issued hereunder.
Any person affected by any notice which has been issued in accordance with Subsection A above or Subsection E below may request and shall be granted a hearing on the matter before the Town Council; provided that such person shall file in the office of the Town Clerk a written petition requesting such hearing and setting forth a brief statement of the grounds therefor within 10 days after the day the notice was served. The filing of the request for hearing shall operate as a stay of the notice and of the suspension except in the case of any order issued under Subsection E. Upon receipt of such petition, the Town Council shall set a time and place for such hearing, and shall give the petitioner written notice thereof. At such hearing, the petitioner shall be given an opportunity to be heard, and to show why such notice should be modified or withdrawn. The hearing shall be commenced not later than 10 days after the day on which the petition was filed; provided that upon application of the petitioner, the Town Council may postpone the date of the hearing for a reasonable time beyond such ten-day period when in its judgment the petitioner has submitted good and sufficient reasons for such postponement.
After such hearing, the Town Council shall make findings as to compliance with the provisions of this chapter and regulations issued hereunder and shall issue an order in writing sustaining, modifying or withdrawing the notice, which shall be served as provided in Subsection A(4). Upon failure to comply with any order sustaining or modifying a notice, the permit or license of the camping and travel trailer park affected by the order shall be revoked.
The proceedings at such a hearing, including the findings and decision of the Town Council, and together with a copy of every notice related thereto shall be entered as a matter of public record in the office of the Town Clerk. Any person aggrieved by the decision of the Town Council may seek relief therefrom in any court of competent jurisdiction, as provided by laws of this state.
Whenever the Town Council finds that an emergency exists which requires immediate action to protect public health, it may, without notice or hearing, issue an order reciting the existence of such an emergency and requiring that such action be taken as it may deem necessary to meet the emergency, including the suspension of the license or permit. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter, such order shall be effective immediately. Any person to whom such an order is directed shall comply therewith immediately but, upon petition to the Town Council, shall be afforded a hearing within 30 days. The provisions of Subsections C and D shall be applicable to such hearing and the order issued thereafter.
The Town Council is hereby authorized to make and, after public hearing, to adopt such written regulations as may be necessary for the proper enforcement of the provisions of this chapter. Such regulations shall have the same force and effect as the provisions of this chapter, and the penalty for the violation of the provisions thereof shall be the same as the penalty for the violation of the provisions of this chapter, as hereinafter provided.

Beaconsfield Baptist church was planted back in 1969, although it was then in Berwick and it was not until 1978 that we moved to Beaconsfield. We have the privilege and responsibility of being Beaconsfield's only church. Our vision is to serve our community by being representatives of the love of God.
Beaconsfield is in the outer south-eastern suburbs of Melbourne, the capital city of the state of Victoria, Australia.
We here at Beaconsfield Baptist are a group of very ordinary people. We come from all sorts of different backgrounds. But what we have in common is a love of Jesus. Week by week we meet to enjoy worship together and to be part of a church family that is warm, caring and accepting. We would love to have you join us.
As you look through these pages you will discover many things about our church. But the best thing about our church is not our programs but our people. It is our people that we would love you to meet and get to know.
Beaconsfield Baptist church is associated with the Baptist Union of Victoria.

Most people have heard of the words Ponzi Schemes, some have heard of the words Affinity Fraud, and probably less have heard the word "Bouree." Any off these experiences can cost you a substantial portion of your savings.
In 2013, The National Center for Victims of Crime and the FINRA Investor Education Foundation released "Taking Action: An Advocate's Guide to Assisting Victims of Financial Fraud" reporting that more than 30 million Americans are victims of financial fraud every year.
A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investment operation where the operator, an individual or organization, pays returns to its investors from new capital paid to the operators by new investors, rather than from profit earned by the operator. Operators of Ponzi schemes usually entice new investors by offering higher returns than other investments, in the form of short-term returns that are either abnormally high or unusually consistent.
Ponzi schemes occasionally begin as legitimate businesses, until the business fails to achieve the returns expected. The business becomes a Ponzi scheme if it then continues under fraudulent terms. Whatever the initial situation, the perpetuation of the high returns requires an ever-increasing flow of money from new investors to sustain the scheme.
Another type of Fraud is "Affinity Fraud" which refers to investment scams that prey upon members of identifiable groups, such as religious or ethnic communities, the elderly, or professional groups. The fraudsters who promote affinity scams frequently are – or pretend to be – members of the group.
Bouree is a game first played by the Pirates of Louisiana in the early 19th Century. It is played like hearts, but anyone who plays and takes no trick is said to have gone "bourré". Having won no tricks, such a player must pay an amount equal to the whole contents of the pot. This payment forms part of the pot for the next deal.
Bouree can produce strategies where some players try to force another player to "Bouree". A "Friendly" Poker game among friends can become "heated." Some players say word the "Bouree" means "exchange of wealth." Bouree-related gambling disputes on the Washington Wizards and Memphis Grizzlies NBA teams have brought national attention to the game.
In the Wizards locker room a handgun was pulled and members of the Grizzlies fought on the team charter flight after players went "Bouree."
A "Bouree Investment" is one in which you end up transferring your wealth to someone else either via a Ponzi Scheme or my making a Personal Guarantee on asset which they transfer to another company they own and leave you paying the debt after they default..

Discover the Benefits of Composting at Home
Compost is a dark, nutrient-rich organic material that is the result of decomposed garden, yard, and kitchen waste. Why do people compost? In this article you will learn the main benefits of composting and why you should start composting food scraps at home.
There are two primary reasons people compost their food scraps and/or garden scraps:
1. Throwing food scraps in the trash is bad for the environment. Taking responsibility for your own organic waste (food scraps, grass clippings, leaves, etc) through composting positively impacts the environment in several ways.
There are two primary reasons people compost their food scraps and/or garden scraps:
1. Throwing food scraps in the trash is bad for the environment. Taking responsibility for your own organic waste (food scraps, grass clippings, leaves, etc) through composting positively impacts the environment in several ways.
- Composting keeps food scraps out of the landfill - Food scraps that go to the landfill mixed with trash do break down but they create harmful methane gas in the process. In the composting process, food scraps (nitrogen) are mixed with dead leaves (carbon) and turned occasionally to add much needed oxygen to the process. Without the carbon source and the oxygen, landfills create dangerous gases that are harmful to the environment.
- Composting at home reduces pollution and saves gas - Imagine how few garbage pick ups would be needed if no one put food scraps in the trash can. The garbage truck comes down my street once per week but my family's trash can is less than half full. We would be fine with half as many garbage pick ups which equals half as much pollution. Most large cities also have an organic waste truck that picks up sticks, leaves, small branches, etc weekly. After they pick the organic waste it is composted it in a large facility and then sell the compost back to residents. The city often picks up your leaves in the fall, composts them, and then sells them back to you. Wouldn't it be more efficient and cost effective to compost them yourself?
- Compost Happens, Composting is a Natural Process - The most important thing to remember when starting to think about composting is: Compost Happens! Composting is a natural process. It is going to happen. You are simply going to try to manage the process so that you get the most out of it. Compost is organic matter (stuff that used to be alive) decomposing or breaking down. Without human intervention, compost happens all over the place. One example is the leaves on a forest floor. Every fall many trees drop their leaves which slowly compost on the forest floor nourishing the tree.
- Composting saves you money - Anyone who does gardening of any type (vegetables, flowers, potted plants, indoor plants, etc) uses some type of soil amendment or fertilizer to give their plants a boost. If you compost your food scraps and leaves at home, you will have have a FREE source of the best organic fertilizer and soil amendment there is (Compost!).
- Your Compost is Organic - chemical fertilizers do make plants grow but they degrade your soil making it harder and harder to grow food and flowers. Adding organic compost naturally improves your soil. If you consistently add homemade compost, your soil and your garden will be healthy and more lush each year.
- Plants need more Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Potassium (NKP) - Most commercial chemical fertilizers only include Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium but all plants also need dozens of micronutrients that are not included in these commercial fertilizers. Compost that you make at home in a home compost pile includes many more of the micro nutrients that plants need. Additionally, compost is alive with beneficial micro-organisms (we can't see them) and acts like an organic fertilizer for any type of plant.
- The compost you make at home is better than compost you can buy in a store - Most compost that is sold commercially is made from one source (cow manure, mushroom compost, etc). The compost you make at home will come from a variety of different sources: many types of vegetable scraps, different types of leaves, etc. More variety in a system makes that system healthier and more stable.

Sole Divas Style Ideas – What Color Of Shoes To Wear With Orange And Yellow.
We tend to shy away from many color of clothes, or at the most, play it safe and I have found that with styling, there are no hard and fast rules and fashion is supposed to be fun.
Bright colors are in this season and the brighter, the better. I'd be focusing on Orange and Yellow in their many shades, and the color of shoes that best go with them. Whether you want a monochrome look, a mix of colors or just 2 colors that complement each other, here are a few style ideas for you.
Yellow/Orange Monochromatic Look
A head to toe match of hues is one way to go when it comes to fashion. As with the yellow/orange monochrome look below, you can't go wrong.
Yellow/Orange And Black
As we all know that black goes with EVERYTHING, a bit of metallic hardware as in the embellished pumps or a touch of PVC as in the Tote Bag will add some oomph to your outfit.
Yellow/Orange And Nude/Neutral
Nudes and earth tones are one of my favorite colors for accessories. Just like black, you can't go wrong with them. Think Nude, Grey and Olive green, if you feel like Orange and Yellow are too bright to tone them down.
Yellow/Orange And Metallics
Silver, Pewter, Gold, Bronze and Rose gold are all available options to wear with Yellow and Orange especially for an evening on the red carpet.
Yellow/Orange And Multi colors
A fun way to spice up your outfit is by adding multi color accessories as seen below.
Yellow/Orange And Bright Hues
If you're feeling bold, match your outfit with another bright and bold color.
There are no hard or fast rules to fashion, the important thing is to own it. Which is/are your favorite combinations?
For me it's the contrast of bright colors.
Use the comment section or click on a smiley. Your feedback means a lot to me.
Peace, Love and More Shoes

Small Business Owners and Entrepreneurs must take advantage of any networking opportunity presented to them. It is a great way to tell potential clients and referral sources about you and your business. Your goal is to make a positive and professional impression resulting in the listener wanting to learn more about your business product or service. It is important that you properly prepare for these encounters by developing what is called an 'elevator pitch, a 30-second answer to the questions "Tell me about yourself". Some suggestions for accomplishing this important speech:
- Prepare. Your presentation time is limited. Think about what the listener needs to know in order to become a client or a good referral source. Emphasize your business and educational background and experience. Think about what information will influence the listener to become a client or to refer other potential clients to you.
- Practice. Compose your speech in writing and then practice giving your speech to others. Your goal is to make it both impressive and natural. It is not a sales pitch; it is an opportunity to influence others and you need to be ready to give your speech at any time and in any situation.
- Seek Opportunities. Always look for opportunities to deliver your elevator pitch. You want others to learn more about you and your business, to become confident enough with you to possibly become a client or perhaps refer some of their own clients, friends, or business partners to you.
- Contact Information. Remember to provide a business card or other marketing collateral with your current contact information.
- Give Back. Be sure to learn about the listener's background and business. Networking is a two-way street. You will want to learn about their business in order to also make appropriate referrals to them. Your ultimate goal is to not only earn new business but to increase your value as referral source to other entrepreneurs and business owners.

Are You Facing Charges For Online Harassment?
In 2009, Texas criminalized certain types of online behavior, classifying these behaviors as "online harassment." Depending on the type of activity you are accused of, you could be charged with either a Class A misdemeanor or a third-degree felony. That is why it is critical to work with an experienced defense lawyer if you are charged with online harassment.
Based in McKinney, lawyer Richard Weaver understands online harassment laws and can help protect your rights if you are accused of violating it. He knows how tough prosecutors are on those accused of Internet crimes in Collin County. He is aggressive and creative in building defenses that are unique to each client. His knowledge of the emerging area of Internet crime is a valuable asset for his clients.
To speak to board-certified criminal defense attorney Richard Weaver about charges of online harassment, call 972-562-0935 or contact his law firm online.
Activities That May Be Classified As Online Harassment
The new Texas statute on online harassment is broad. It criminalizes the following acts:
- Creating an account on Facebook, Twitter or other social media site under someone else's name or persona, if the purpose of creating the account was to harm, defraud, intimidate or threaten any person
- Sending an email or text message purported to be from someone else with the intent of harming or defrauding any person
Examples of conduct that has been prosecuted already include posting an ex-girlfriend's photos on an adult website, posting someone else's personal contact information online and creating a fake Facebook account and then harassing or bullying people online.
When defending against charges of online harassment and other Internet crimes, Richard Weaver matches the intensity of prosecutors. Because the law usually lags behind changes in technology, prosecutors often get "creative" in trying to take a certain behavior and present it as a violation of existing law. Attorney Weaver knows how to counteract this creativity, often using evidence rules and search and seizure law to defeat a case before it really gets started.
Accused Of Online Bullying? Contact Richard Weaver Now For A Free Consult.
If you have been charged with online harassment or any other Internet crime in Collin County, do not hesitate to reach out for legal help. To arrange your free initial consultation with an experienced Texas criminal defense lawyer, call 972-562-0935 or contact Richard Weaver online.
Phone calls are answered 24 hours a day, seven days a week and credit cards are accepted.

A new billboard in Phoenix promoting a ballot initiative that would legalize marijuana for adults in Arizona is receiving mixed reviews on social media by cannabis supporters, some of whom declare it conveys the wrong message.
The advertisement near 7th and Lincoln streets is meant to poke fun at pot prohibitionists, featuring the word "Marijuana" in a large, Reefer Madness-style font next to an image of a woman's screaming face followed by the message: "LESS toxic! LESS addictive! LESS scary than ALCOHOL!"
Among those taking the ad in an unintended way is legalization advocate Brian Anapol of Phoenix: "I don't know how that's a pro-marijuana billboard," he writes on Facebook. "I mean I read what it says. [But the public is] going to see marijuana with a screaming face. I do not agree with this billboard. I think it sucks."
Backers of the Campaign to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol in Arizona unveiled the billboard this week, explaining that they believe it bashes the irrational fears of pot prohibitionists like Arizona county attorneys Sheila Polk and Bill Montgomery, who are intent on prosecuting pot users.
"It doesn't make sense for us to continue to arrest people and charge them with felonies for mere possession of something that's safer than alcohol," J.P. Holyoak, chairman of the campaign, said. "It's ridiculous that we continue to keep this substance illegal."
The ad is funded by the initiative's financial backers, a group that includes the national Marijuana Policy Project and local dispensaries. Tens of thousands of voters already have signed the campaign's petition, and even naysayers agree that the proposed law will likely appear on Arizona's November 2016 ballot. Most polls show residents are split 50-50 on the issue.
If the measure wins next year, Arizonans 21 and older would be allowed to possess up to an ounce of marijuana and grow up to six plants in their homes without penalty. The law also would create a system of state-regulated retail stores that would sell marijuana products, with Arizona dispensaries getting first dibs on running the stores. An independent study concluded the tax placed on marijuana sold at the stores would raise up to $72 million a year for state schools.
Critics claim legalization would expand problems associated with the plant, such as teen use and vehicle collisions caused by THC-impaired drivers. But opposition leaders including elected county prosecutors Polk and Montgomery have employed fear to sell their viewpoint.
Montgomery has said publicly that marijuana is more dangerous than alcohol, a statement that's refuted by science. Polk, in part by using public funds, has helped spread a litany of lies about marijuana to central Arizona town councils and school boards. She claimed falsely in one widely published column that the deaths of 62 children resulted from marijuana.
The billboard's message seeks to refute such propaganda with a faux-frightening motif well timed for the Halloween season. But Anapol is not alone among those commenting online in believing that the satire goes too far and thereby helps spread the impression that marijuana really is scary:
* "Those statements on the billboard are completely wrong and false...Cannabis is by no means Toxic, Addictive, or Scary."
* "Not a big fan of this billboard. I think you could have done much better. This might actually be counter-productive."
Yet some consider the the message is cleverly effective:
* "This is a great billboard!"

* "Haha! Love it."
Kathy Inman, executive director of the pro-cannabis group, MomForce AZ, says she would have preferred the ad read "nontoxic" instead of "less toxic" but that the legalization campaign is playing a savvy game.
"I'm sure they approached it from the best political vantage," she says. "The Halloween theme was a good strategy. [And if they had said] 'nontoxic,' the prohibitionists would jump all over it. I know they don't want to give Polk anything to reply to."
An anti-marijuana group put up billboards in Phoenix several months ago, including one that listed an incorrect website address.

A very youthful England under-19 went down to a narrow 3-2 defeat at the hands of Sweden in their friendly at Solihull Borough.
Playing in front of a sizeable crowd at Danson Park, England, who included a number of debutants, found the going a little tougher against an older Swedish side in preparation for this summer's UEFA Championships, and the Swedes raced into a three-goal lead at half time.
However after the break England played some good football and gave Sweden a scare when pulling two goals back through Arsenal striker Lianne Sanderson, one from the penalty spot. With captain Katie Holtham and the excellent Karen Carney in inspirational form, England sought an equaliser but it would not come, going closest from a Michelle Evans free kick.
There were a number of impressive performances from the young debutants, not least 15-year-old Sophie Clough of Stockport County who played well at right back.

The result of the automatic rebar cage calculated by the Reinforced Concrete BIM Designers is based on default country settings. Using the reinforcement settings users can fine-tune and customize rebar cages generated by the automatic calculation, for example imposing specific values and settings to longitudinal or transversal bars. The Reinforced Concrete BIM Designer commands automatically detect the type of element selected and present options related to these element types such as footings, beams and columns. The reinforcement options vary for individual elements.
Preliminary Sizing
One of the features of the Reinforced Concrete BIM Designers is the possibility to perform a preliminary foundation design for footings. The footing's geometry is adjusted and a rebar cage generated as a result of an iterative calculation considering the applied loads.
After launching the "Preliminary sizing" command the elements properties from the model can be further verified during the design process.
Once the structural design of the footing is completed, the rebar cage properties (diameter, spacing, covers, etc) are set in accordance with the selected country design code. In the majority of cases the calculated reinforcement cage should not need to be changed but using the Generated Reinforcement panel, the resulting reinforcement can be revised and adjusted to accommodate additional requirements for each type of element. (N.B. Some dialogues may vary in appearance depending on the platform but the available options remain the same.)
Users can also adjust the main/secondary longitudinal reinforcement bars and the transversal bars as required.
The Reinforced Concrete BIM Designers allow complete client-side configuration giving the user complete control over the impact of any changes applied. For example if the quantity of bars imposed by the user results in the real reinforcement area being smaller than the theoretical requirement, the corresponding text becomes red indicating that the new configuration does not meet the minimum design requirement.
For columns the properties of the longitudinal and transversal reinforcement for any of the three sections considered: upper, main and lower bars can be adjusted.
The longitudinal starter bars (lower or upper) assure the reinforcement continuity over the entire height of the column; as a result the column detects and works together with the footing and the column from the level above.
The upper transversal bars are the links along the upper longitudinal bars. The same applies for the main and lower transversal bars.
Reinforcement for a typical beam is divided into several categories that can be customized and set individually. This enables the user complete flexibility to adjust and fin-tune the properties of the longitudinal, transversal, anti-crack, sliding, splice bars, continuity and lintel reinforcement to suit a wide variety of applications.
For each bar category various parameters such as: quantity, diameter, cover, anchorage length, hook length, hook angle, etc. can be customized and adjusted as needed. Changes made will have an immediate effect on the real reinforcement diagrams, which are automatically updated.

Jim Baines, CEO of a major US packaging company, recently made a simple mistake which lead to a cyber-attack on his company and left his clients vulnerable to hackers. Jim's story is the subject of AXELOS' Whaling for Beginners cyber novellas and, in a new series of blogs, Jim discusses his experiences, what he has learned about the importance of cyber resilience and how individuals and organizations need to be better at detecting, responding to and recovering from cyber-attacks.
My passwords are as old as I am (almost): a brief reflection on the LinkedIn hack.
Every time a news story about a company getting hacked appears, I go cold. The LinkedIn hack is no exception. It used to be that I'd see these stories and think they only happened to huge corporations, not relatively modest enterprises like my packaging company here in Peekskill, NY. But then it did happen to me. And, after what seems like a lifetime, I'm still working hard to recover. You can read my story in Whaling for Beginners.
I got caught out by a bogus email that led me to download an attachment (I thought it was a photo of me triumphing on the 18th hole!) and, well, the rest is… a (horrible) history. The attackers used my company to get to my clients: big multinationals, whose trust in me may never be the same again.
We brought in a security consultant to help. Big bear of a guy called Domenic Rizzo. He quickly let me know I wasn't alone. Cyber-attacks happen so often we don't even know about most of them. Nobody is immune – particularly people like me in boardrooms around the world.
Rizzo got up my LinkedIn profile and asked me what my password was. I refused to tell him, thinking that was what I supposed to do when a security consultant asked me what my password was. He smiled, sighed, then typed something - paused - and then typed something else. On the fourth attempt he was in.
I was amazed. "Mother's maiden name?" he asked (knowing the answer). It was. A lot of my (not very diverse) passwords are that personal. That's how I remember them, how, no doubt, many of us do. I'd used it in various forms ever since the '90s. But Rizzo had done his research and, using nothing more than a common search engine and some basic human psychology, had found enough information to make an educated guess.
"The LinkedIn breach happened four, five years ago," Domenic told me. "It only came to light beginning of '16 when someone started selling it on the Dark Web; but odds are most people haven't changed their passwords since then. So, the information, though old, is still valuable. CEOs need to change their passwords frequently. Especially CEOs. Their passwords are the most valuable.
Sounds simple. But it's true. Do you know how vulnerable you are? Do you behave like you're the first line of defence for your company?

Bathroom Redo
14 comments:
Its looking really good Ann. You are being very creative and frugal with this make over. I am a huge fan of beadboard and chair rail. I would have it in every room of my house if my hubby would let me. I don't know why shower curtains have to be so darn expensive. Good luck finding the perfect one.ReplyDelete
Enjoy your weekend,
The bathroom looks great. I love the star picture and mirrors!! Isn't it great to have such a handy husband??ReplyDelete
Oh my gosh Ann!!!ReplyDelete
I LOVE it!!
So prim and fantastic!
I love the colors you have used.... the walls and trim and accents. Oh yes!! I all looks primtastic!!
And what a wonderful idea with the star scrap book paper. May have to steal that idea!!! Heeehee!
Seriously girl, you have done a wonderful job.
The bathroom looks fantastic! I really like all the details. I blogged about our bath remodel last October 7th. I got our shower curtain and matching valance from the Country Porch. Here is the link http://www.countryporch.com/shower-curtains/ There are 7 pages of shower curtains! I paid only $40 plus shipping. Hopefully you can find something there!ReplyDelete
Love the redo and the colors and the wainscoting really looks nice.ReplyDelete
I was thinking of doing that in mine and I definitely like the look. That is the shade I was looking for, but my husband came back with a lot brighter yellow;)
So far so very good! I love the wainscoting so much and the star accents.ReplyDelete
What a great idea you can make a long basket to fit between the mirrors!
A true transformation! I think I'd ues that room to just sit a spell. So relaxing and peaceful.ReplyDelete
Love it - would love the molding and bead board in mine too - Can I borrow your husband when he's done! What a transformation!ReplyDelete
What a difference.....looks great!ReplyDelete
I really like your bathroom makeover :) We did the same with ours, wainscotting half way up and behing the sink I went all the way to the ceiling. I then had a small crown molding wrapped around the bathroom. I am soooo pleased with the outcome :)ReplyDelete
I found a site the other day who sold handmade shower curtains, but it's too find who she was now...
FOUND IT! Copy and paste this link and it will take you to her picturetrail...
I love how the mirrors turned out. Makes me want to re-do our bathroom mirror. For a shower curtain, try looking at Joann for material. There might be some clips you could use instead of sewing button holes to hang it. I managed to grab a plaid shower curtain at Big Lots several years ago, and only paid about $10.ReplyDelete
wow Ann, just love what you did with this bathroom. Also thought the scrapbook paper was a great idea. It really prims things up. I think wainscoting is a nice touch to a room. It adds such charm and warmth. The colors that you chose were fantastic...Maureen email@example.com
Wow! That is awesome!! I love the new look, ValerieReplyDelete
What a transformation! I really looks amazing~ and inspiring too! I have a kitchen and two spare bedrooms that need to get done!ReplyDelete

Tough Times
Hmmm at 45 years old, a top English Premier League (EPL) manager can say that this may be his last club before he retires.
Nice to be so comfortable that you can say that. Me? Been told many a time that I will never retire and I when my time finally comes I would be happy to be on the field coaching.
Can't argue with that. I love the game even in the tough times 🙂

Paula Gill Lopez to lead CT School Safety and Crisis Response team
Paula Gill Lopez, PhD, has been appointed as co-chair of the newly formed School Safety and Crisis Response Committee by the Connecticut Association of School Psychologists (CASP). Geoff Millenson, school psychologist for Stratford Public Schools and alumnus of Fairfield's school psychology program, will join Dr. Gill-Lopez as co-chair.
The School Safety and Crisis Response Committee has been formed in response to recent national events and the needs of families, schools, and school psychologists. The committee's charge is to coordinate public and private response efforts to crises in the state.
Lopez is associate professor and chair of the department of psychological and educational consultation, and director of the school psychology program at Fairfield University's Graduate School of Education and Allied Professions (GSEAP). As a certified PREPaRE trainer, a national crisis intervention program, Lopez is a leading expert in school crisis prevention and response, and a member of the National Association of School Psychologists. She will be initiating contact with school districts and mental health organizations across the state regarding PREPaRE training.
The PREPaRe curriculum, developed by the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP), provides school-based mental health professionals and educational professionals with school safety and crisis management training. According to NASP, PREPaRE "is one of the first comprehensive nationally available curriculums developed by school-based professionals with first hand experience and formal training." The training model incorporates guidelines from The U.S. Department of Education Readiness and Emergency Management for Schools (REMS) and the Department of Homeland Security Incident Command System (ICS). PREPaRE Crisis Curriculum focuses on the five stages of a crisis: prevention, mitigation, protection, response and recovery.
As co-chairs, Lopez and Millenson will lead the School Safety and Crisis Response Committee to support districts' needs regarding school safety and crisis, develop a list of all NASP PREPaRE trained Connecticut school psychologists and increase the number of school psychologists in the state who are trained in PREPaRE I and II.
Paula Gill Lopez received her PhD from the University of California at Berkeley in educational psychology with a specialization in school psychology. While working as a school psychologist in Richmond, California, she co-wrote curriculum and conducted workshops in cultural awareness, anger management, conflict mediation, and gang violence prevention for the West Contra Costa Human Relations Department.
In 1994, Lopez joined the faculty in the Graduate School of Education and Allied Professions (GSEAP) at Fairfield University and has directed the school psychology program ever since. She has conducted school safety training for the State Police School Resources Officers, the State Educational Resource Center (SERC), and numerous school districts in Connecticut.
In 2008, she co-founded the School Psychology Student Association with graduate students in the program, and serves as the faculty sponsor. Lopez was recognized as the 2017 Alpha Sigma Nu Graduate Teacher of the Year. Alpha Sigma Nu, the National Jesuit Honor Society, encourages scholarship, loyalty, and service to the ideals of Jesuit higher education. Most recently, she has been working with her student research team, studying the effects of practicing self-care and mindfulness in public schools and presenting their findings at regional and national conferences.

A lot of us have been hearing stories about King Henry VIII since we were little. We're taught that he led an extravagant lifestyle, that he was a fairly ruthless leader and that during his reign as king of England from 1509 until his death many historically significant religious, economic and political changes occurred.
But probably his most notable claim to fame is the string of six wives he had throughout his tenure as king, and we don't hear too much about them. Who were these women who loved—and lost, some through gruesome and unjust means—the king?
We travel back to the Tudor court to witness important points in the lives of Henry VIII's six wives.
1. Catherine of Aragon
Henry VIII's first wife was Catherine of Aragon, daughter of King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain. Eight years before her marriage to Henry in 1509, Catherine was in fact married to Henry's older brother, Arthur, who died of sickness at just 15 years old. Together, Henry and Catherine had a daughter, Mary – but it was a son that Henry wanted. Frustrated that Catherine seemed unable to produce a male heir to the throne, Henry had their marriage annulled (cancelled) in 1533. But there's more to the story, gang – towards the end of their marriage, Henry fell in love with one of Catherine's ladies-in-waiting (woman who assisted the queen) – Anne Boleyn…
2. Anne Boleyn
Anne Boleyn became Henry's second wife after the pair married secretly in January 1533. By this time, Anne was pregnant with her first child to Henry, and by June 1533 she was crowned Queen of England. Together they had a daughter, Elizabeth – the future Queen Elizabeth I. But, still, it was a son – and future king of England – that Henry wanted. Frustrated, he believed his marriage was cursed and that Anne was to blame. And so, he turned his affections to one of Anne's ladies-in-waiting, Jane Seymour. And Anne's fate? Following accusations of numerous crimes, including witchcraft and treason (plotting to kill the king), she was arrested and beheaded.
3. Jane Seymour
On 30 May 1535, King Henry married Jane Seymour. Unlike his previous wives, however, Jane never had a coronation and so was never crowned Queen of England. Some people believe this was because Henry wanted her to provide an heir to the throne first. And in October 1537, the time had finally come – Henry became the proud father of Prince Edward. But the prince came at a price – Jane took ill and died just two weeks after the birth. She was buried in a tomb at Windsor Castle, and would later become the only one of Henry's six wives to be buried with him.
4. Anne of Cleves
Henry was single for two years after Jane Seymour's death. But as time passed, the King and his ministers felt that England needed a foreign ally – and so the hunt for a new bride began! Henry sent a talented painter called Hans Holbein to Germany to paint portraits of the Duke of Cleves' daughters, Anne and Amelia. Anne's portrait pleased him, and arrangements were made for the pair to wed. But Anne's arrival in England proved to be a bit of a disaster to say the least. Seeing her in person, Henry took an instant dislike to Anne and, finding her ugly, referred to her as "The Mare of Flanders". Poor Anne! Too late to cancel, their wedding took place 6 January 1540, only for the marriage to be annulled a few weeks later.
5. Catherine Howard
Next in line to marry King Henry VIII was young Catherine Howard – lady-in-waiting to Anne of Cleves and first cousin to Henry's second wife, Anne Boleyn. By the time they married in July 1540, Henry was 49 years old, overweight and unable to walk, and Catherine a lively teenager. Delighted with his new wife, Henry is said to have spoilt Catherine with gifts and called her his "rose without a thorn". But trouble lay ahead for Catherine – two years into their marriage, she was accused of being unfaithful to the king. Her fate..? Beheaded!
6. Catherine Parr
The last of Henry VIII wives was Catherine Parr. An educated woman who loved to learn new things, Catherine married Henry on 12 July 1543. She proved to be a kind wife who looked after Henry in his sickness, and a good stepmother to the king's three children, Mary, Elizabeth and Edward. But yes – you guessed it – she didn't have it easy with Henry! Her interest in Protestantism (a new religious faith) made her enemies in court – enemies who tried to turn the king against her and have her arrested. Luckily for Catherine, she managed to convince Henry that she was loyal to him and his religion, and was spared execution. Henry died in 1547, leaving Catherine widowed and free to marry her former love, Thomas Seymour.

Advance Directive / Health Care Power of Attorney
UHS health records are protected by federal law. UHS does not disclose information to parents or guardians for students over the age of 18 without the student's consent. Students have the right to receive information about advance directives and designating someone (known as a Health Care Power of Attorney) to make health care decisions for them in the event that they are unable.

To learn more, see Advance Directives/Durable Power of Attorney on the U-M Michigan Medicine website.

Requests for entire record may include alcohol and drug abuse/treatment; psychological and social work counseling; HIV or AIDS or ARC; communicable disease or infection including sexually transmitted diseases, venereal diseases and hepatitis; and demographic information.
A request for an entire health record does not routinely include records sent to UHS from a previous health care provider. These records must be specifically requested on authorization.
