Words floating from the ceiling, words scattered allover the desks, whiteboard, even floor?
This is how I want my room to look when my students enter one day during the first week of school. I am going to gather as many words as I can, print them in large font and colors, laminate them and then scatter them all over.
I want my students to walk around, pick their favorite(s), and write a story, poem, journal entry- any piece of writing around that word. If they are stuck, I will tell them to gather 10-20 words and create a found poem from the words.
Then I want us to go around a do a quaker share (each person shares a line from their work). Hopefully this will get them into writing, sharing, and words! Maybe they will even learn some new vocabulary words!!

"The best thing you can do during labor is to relax," she said. "You're going to want to tense up because it hurts, but if you can stay calm and learn how to do that, the rest will just happen."
She compared labor to a marathon - not something you just wake up and do one Saturday, but rather a physical endeavor, one that you prepare for. Besides keeping active, she suggested meditation or some other ritual that I do on a regular basis to teach myself to relax.
I was totally down, but had a busy evening last night and hadn't yet put thought into how I'd structure my relaxation. (Ha. Get the joke? I'M BAD AT THIS.) So this morning when I woke up and complained to Chris about how I hate getting showers, how I didn't feel like it, suddenly the light bulb went off: an opportunity.
Side note: I hate taking showers. Hate it! It's so boring, same thing every time, and it prevents me from getting my day started. One of the massive perks about working from home sometimes is that I can literally start work from my bed. Showers have always been a barrier to me, something I have to do BEFORE the fun starts. (Extra side note: I also just feel GUILTY about using all that water. I am a sucker for environmental campaigns and take the responsibility of the world's water usage on my shoulders. Also not good.)
This morning I decided that I would forget all that crap. I would ENJOY a shower. And you know what? It was pretty great.
Here's what I did:
- I only used the good-smelling shampoo (instead of trying to finish up the bottle that was almost done)
- I used my favorite shower gel (the expensive one that was gifted)
- I did a face mask
- I thanked and appreciated each of my limbs as I soaped up. I thanked my left arm for helping me type today, my left leg for getting me in and out of subways, meetings, and out to grab a healthy lunch. I thanked my right leg for telling me when I'm tired and encouraging me to rest when I need to. I thanked my belly (which I have a tough relationship with) for being a little flabby and providing a safe nest for Tiny and then I thanked my right arm for being my RIGHT HAND MAN and holding down the fort. Ha. Then finally I washed my face mask off and prepared my face to smile today.
The best! It didn't take that much longer than normal and now I feel ready to face the morning, having connected my physical self with all of the things I'm going to do today.
It's not a relaxation curriculum, but it's a start.

Wild prospects lead Saint John past Edmontonby Adam Kimelman
The Minnesota Wild have missed the playoffs for four straight seasons, but if the 2012 MasterCard Memorial Cup is any evidence, their future is quite bright.
Wild prospects Charlie Coyle and Zack Phillips combined for four points for the Saint John Sea Dogs in their 5-2 win against the Edmonton Oil Kings in preliminary-round play at the 2012 MasterCard Memorial Cup at Bionest Centre in Shawinigan, Que.
Phillips had a pair of goals and Coyle added a pair of assists as the defending Memorial Cup champions evened their tournament record at 1-1.
Jonathan Huberdeau, Danick Gauthier and Ryan Tesink also scored for Saint John, and goalie Mathieu Corbeil made 25 saves for the Sea Dogs, who are trying to become just the eighth repeat champion in the 94-year history of the Memorial Cup tournament.
Saint John coach Gerard Gallant said he was far happier with the effort he saw in the final two periods from his team, which lost its tournament opener to London on Saturday.
"The first period was as lot of like [Saturday], very disappointed," he said. "I thought guys got their legs in the second and third. … I thought we had a real good start to the game first couple minutes and then it turned off again. I didn't say much after the period but the kids know I was disappointed. We don't play all season long to play like we did the first period. The kids were more satisfied after the game."
"It's really just our work ethic," said Phillips. "When we work hard, there aren't many teams that can beat us."
Kristians Pells and Stephane Legault scored for the Oil Kings, winners of the Western Hockey League, and goalie Laurent Brossoit stopped 29 shots as Edmonton slipped to 1-1.
Since the current tournament was adopted in 1983, it's the first time all four teams are 1-1.
"No doubt the four teams are evenly matched," Gallant said. "If you slip a little you're going to lose. We competed tonight and we battled tonight and won more one-on-one battles. That's why we won the game."
Phillips, taken by the Wild with the 28th pick of the 2011 Entry Draft, opened the scoring 4:23 into the game when his sharp-angle shot got between Brossoit's pad and the post.
The 6-foot, 175-pound center had 95 points in 67 games last season, and followed that with 80 points in 60 games this season. Better were his playoff numbers, as he 32 points in 17 games were second in the QMJHL.
Phillips was taken by the Wild with a pick acquired from the San Jose Sharks last June as part of the trade that sent Brent Burns to the Sharks.
Also coming to the Wild in that trade was Coyle, who had been drafted by the Sharks with the 28th pick of the 2010 draft. He was the key piece demanded by the Wild in the Burns trade.
After Pells tied the game when he tipped a Henrik Samuelsson shot past Corbeil, Coyle sprung Sea Dogs captain Jonathan Huberdeau for a breakaway goal at 4:42 of the second that gave Saint John a lead it would not relinquish.
Later in the second, Coyle struck again, this time pulling up off the rush and firing a shot that Brossoit stopped, but the Calgary Flames prospect couldn't deny Paquette on the rebound to make it 3-1 at 15:53.
Coyle's move last summer from the Sharks to the Wild was just one of many moves for Coyle since being drafted. The East Weymouth, Mass., native played a year and a half at Boston University, but after an outstanding turn for the U.S. at the 2012 World Junior Championship -- he had four goals in six games -- he left the Terriers for Saint John. He spent the second half of the season adjusting to the style of play in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League, and then tied teammate Stanislav Galiev for the QMJHL playoff scoring lead with 34 points in 17 games.
"Charlie competed," Gallant said. "He's a big strong guy in our lineup. We use him on big faceoffs, penalty kills. Charlie's been one of our go-to guys this year."
Edmonton got a goal back just 63 seconds later when Legault took a pass from Samuelsson and beat Corbeil at 16:56.
But that was all Corbeil, a fourth-round 2010 pick of the Columbus Blue Jackets, would allow. Corbeil stopped 19 of 20 shots over the final two periods as he auditions for a contract from the Blue Jackets. Columbus GM Scott Howson was in attendance and has publicly said he would determine after the Memorial Cup if he would offer Corbeil a contract or let him go back into the draft.
"The teams are so good here, if you want to turn pucks over you're going to pay a heavy price for it," Edmonton coach Derek Laxdal said. "When you play teams like this, they're going to strike quick."
Phillips scored his second goal with 1:37 left when his stayed high in the offensive zone as linemates Stanislav Galiev and Tomas Jurco outworked Edmonton in its zone, with Jurco sending a pass from below the goal line to Phillips, who one-timed it past Brossoit from the high slot.
Ryan Tesink closed the scoring with an empty-net goal with just under five seconds remaining.
Each team has one game left in round-robin play in the preliminary round. Edmonton will face the Ontario Hockey League champion London Knights on Tuesday, while Saint John will face the host Shawinigan Cataractes on Wednesday.

Want to visit Georgia beaches? Get ready for a vacation with endless possibilities! Take the family on a dolphin tour, ride a horse on the beach, see the islands by helicopter, go kayaking, or charter an unforgettable fishing trip.
Play golf on world-famous courses, and at the end of the day hit the spa. You can bicycle for miles on the packed sand alongside the gentle surf. Go resort hopping, or camp beneath live oaks covered with Spanish moss... Georgia beach vacations have it all in spades.
You'll enjoy charming cottage rentals and the finest hotels. Campsites are excellent and public beaches are fantastic. Feast on scrumptious meals, and come to know the hospitality of these remarkable islands.
Vacation Guide to the Georgia Beaches
Tybee Island
What can I say about Tybee Island except, let the vacation begin! What a refreshing beach setting, with gracious hotels, inns and cottages, and tons of events all year where vacationers join right in. Things are different on Tybee - in the best way! Maybe my favorite beach in Georgia.
Sea Island, GA
Sea Island beach resort, 85 miles south of Savannah, is the world famous resort island where life is good and the living is real easy. Besides being a golfer's paradise, this is a true family beach resort where hotels, recreation and restaurants are second to none. And the beaches? Unspoiled and magnificent. You can lose yourself here.
St. Simons Island, GA
St. Simons Island feels less "touristy" than some other East Coast beaches. It just has a quaint, southern feel to it. Praised by Money magazine as one of the "Best Places to Retire" in America, St. Simons is known for its spectacular seashore, moss-draped live oaks, wonderful island shops and terrific restaurants.
Jekyll Island is a beach resort filled with fascinating history and beautiful beaches. As a state park, Jekyll is home to Georgia's largest public golf complex, excellent tennis facilities, plus fishing, sailing, horseback riding and water sports galore. You'll be intrigued by the choice of places to stay, from beautiful vacation homes to a magnificent old resort hotel restored to its original grandeur.
Chart a Course for Georgia Beach Vacations
I-95 is the main interstate running north and south along the Georgia coast, and I-16 is the interstate that brings you in from the west.
Map of Georgia Islands & Beaches
Tybee Island is very handy to the mainland, just 18 miles east of Savannah. From Savannah, US Hwy 80 takes you into Tybee Island.
Travel south on I-95 and you reach the Golden Isles, a cluster of Georgia islands that includes St. Simons Island, Sea Island, and Jekyll Island. They're so close to one another, it's easy to roll several Georgia beach vacations into one trip.
St. Simons Island is about 85 miles south of Savannah GA. Exit off I-95 onto U.S. Hwy 17, and then exit onto FJ Torras Causeway - the only access to St. Simons Island. Sea Island is right next to St. Simons, and to get to it you go across the causeway that connects the two islands.
Just below St. Simons and Sea Island is Jekyll Island. Jekyll is just east of the city of Brunswick, with a 6 mile causeway that links Jekyll to the mainland.
"I wondered why they called these the Golden Isles. Was it the color of the sand, the late-afternoon sun, or the shade of the marsh grass in autumn? Now I know - it's the way you feel when you're there."
— Kim Cross, Travel Writer for Southern Living Magazine
Easy living, the beauty of the lowcountry, and southern hospitality is what brings people back time after time for unforgettable Georgia beach vacations.

Hello again, I hope you enjoyed Easter, and are now looking forward to the summer celebrations for the Queens jubilee and the Olympics.
To help with the celebrations there are some lovely fabric ranges - a few of which I have selected to show below
and this selection is from London Icons from Makower.
Now the only question is what am I going to make from them. My ideas at the moment include - cushions, tablerunners, teacosy, apron, bunting, lap quilt, bags, and even a cover for a kindle.
But before I start any of these projects I am going to finish painting and setting up my new sewing room. I have finally decided that I need to have a room just to sew in, after many years of having an area in the dining room. Next week I hope to have photos of the painted and furnished room to show you, and maybe even a small project from some of these fabrics.

This year, I decided to approach presidents special a little different – since our annual meeting fell the day after the NCAA Men's Final and on Election Day, I decided to host a bracket where members got to pick the topic.
Our President's Special Final Four was:
After Round 1 – Macro/Close-Up & Long Exposure came out victorious.
In the end – the winner and this year's president special is: Macro/Close-Up
- Image must be taken after 4/4/17
- No Arthropods (Insects/Spiders) – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthropod
- No Plants – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant
- Exceptions: Fruit/Vegetables in their final form are allowed – for example a cherry is allowed, but not a cherry blossom.
- Fungi are not in the plant kingdom, therefore also allowed
Why did I add the Arthropod/Plant restriction?
I wanted the club members to step out outside the box and get creative. If you google "Macro Photography" you will notice almost all of the images are of insects/spiders and flowers.
I also noticed this trend on Flickr – the trend continued on the largest Macro group. https://www.flickr.com/groups/49503086607@N01/
I then found a Flickr group which had restriction and I really like the diversity of images compared to the traditional macro groups – so I decided to add the same restrictions to president's special. https://www.flickr.com/groups/macro_noflower_noinsect/
Macro/Close-Up Resources
Here are just a few website I found that provide useful information:
- Mike Moats (I took his workshop) – https://tinylanscapes.wordpress.com/
- Digital Photography School – https://digital-photography-school.com/?s=Macro
- YouTube Videos – https://www.youtube.com/results?sp=CAM%253D&q=macro+photography
Happy Shooting and good luck!

I hear all the time how my patients use collagen skin care products, erroneously thinking or hoping that they will improve the quality of their skin. Unfortunately as good as this sounds it's not exactly true. Imagine how easy it would be for everyone to look young and for the skin to look plump just like baby skin, if collagen infused products would actually work.
While those products might have some collagen in them, they simply will not do anything good for the skin, besides at the most provide it with some hydration. It's as simple as that. Imagine that you'd take a broken bone and on top of it you'd set another bone. Would the initial bone become stronger and it would get fixed only because it touched the new bone we set on top? No. The new bone would fall off eventually and it would be somewhere next to the broken bone.
The same way it works with collagen. Collagen is a large molecule, which does not have the ability to penetrate into the skin or stick to the already existing collagen, so eventually it would be washed off and your skin would not be or feel any better.
In order to look younger and for the skin to look more plump and elastic, collagen (essential binding protein in your skin, joints, muscles and bones) growth has to be stimulated. The cells responsible for collagen growth and synthesis are called fibroblast cells and they are found deep in the dermis (layer of the skin), which is impossible to reach with any creams ever invented.
Some key ingredients and procedures that will help stimulate and synthesize your natural collagen are: Retinol and RetinA, Vitamin C, Growth Factors which have to be in a very concentrated number in your skin care product in order to work, Red Light Therapy, Chemical peels indirectly to some degree, Microneedling, ultrasound devices such as Ultherapy and Thermage and last but not least Radio Frequency also called RF. While some of these procedures are resurfacing for the skin, they also help stimulate indirectly our collagen and elastin by stimulating the skin's cell turnover and also by forcing the skin to heal, after creating some intentional micro wounds.
I hope this helps you understand a little better the collagen myth and will help you make better decisions when it comes to choosing your skin care products and in office procedures.

The new chicken wing flavors that other wing places don't have are their strong suit. I just didn't like the Sinigang marinated chicken that much because any Sinigang will always be sour but I don't feel it. Seems like it's tamarind based. Their Original Steak is better than the Chef's Pick though. But if I come back I'd eat the Wings again.

I was craving steaks and chicken wings and this place happened to be the closest and affordable as well.
At first glance, I thought the place is small and had only two tables but I didn't notice that there was a second floor and it was spacious.
We ordered Griddle Steak Chef's Pick and Honey Bagoong Wings which were all recommended by their waiter. I'm very glad we tried those especially the steak. The steak is really flavourful and soft. They also give you a gravy and that makes it tastier. For the price, the steak is a steal.
The Bagoong wings were also good. To be honest, I didn't expect that I will like it since I don't like bagoong but I did. I guess it was because of the honey.
I recommend ordering their chef's pick steak and be adventurous and order their weird flavored wings. Aside from bagoong, they have kare-kare and sinigang wings so I'll try that one when I come back.

Been at Griddle for maybe 10+ times already and what I like about this place is the consistency of their food. The griddle steak tastes exactly as it was when it first opened.
We also tries the Pork Belly Lime(?) for the first time. It's 3/5 for me because it tastes normal. Nothing special about it.

Second time here on the legendary Maginhawa St!
First stop was Griddle: Steak X Wings. Almost everything in this place was excellent, except that the combination of the travel/aviation/dainty/shabby chic themes in its interiors seemed a bit off to me... But I'm not complaining.. Just confused! Lol.
What we had:
⚪Honey Bagoong Wings (₱145, five pieces) - Honey and bagoong flavoring for the chicken wings? It sounded so offbeat at first, but once you take a first bite of them, the time will stand still, the world will stop revolving and you will hear the angel choirs singing... Haha, I might be exag-ing, but really, this turned out to be one of the best chicken wings dishes I've ever tasted! This was really an appetizer, but because the bagoong made the fish a bit salty, I had the wings as a viand instead and ordered two cups of rice! Chicken was a bit crispy too.
⚪Grilled Chicken in Pumpkin Puree - (₱170) - The sweetish pumpkin puree graced this dish! And the chicken was tender, well-cooked and well-seasoned. Result is a dish with balanced flavors. And the servings were good for its price.
⚪Two cans of Sprite (₱80) - we just wanna go burping.
Their service was quick, much to our delight, despite the fact that there were a lot of customers at the time. In less than 10 minutes, our food was served.
Meals are reasonably priced, too!
Griddle seems to bring unlikely flavors to the table that surprisingly go each other in harmony, and this very factor keeps its menu from being plain and boring. Who has heard of Kare-Kare or Sinigang wings, or a Kimchi Beef Tapa Rice, or Creamy Chimchurri Wings before? Or the Honey Bagoong wings (which is actually one of the recommended dishes) that I first had? My first dining experience at Griddle was very satisfactory, so I would be glad to dine there again if I make another return to Maginhawa.

From someone who lives in the South I'm so jealous for the people who lives in the North they have many food hub to dine in. So everytime I'm meeting my friends I always choose to visit the North despite having to struggle in the Mrt trains.Maginhawa Street is one of my favorite place I have tried a couple of restaurants in here. One that I really liked is this restaurant. It's a travel theme restaurant with a reasonable price for their meals. I had dinner with my friends and we enjoyed the cozy ambiance. Orders were given to us in less than 20 minutes. We ordered Pasta Pomodoro with Pesto chicken which tasted okay nothing special with the flavor. The grilled pork belly is tasty I believe it's one if their best seller aside from the grilled steak. The Honey Bagoong chicken wings was really delicious.The texture is just right and it's really a dish that will make you order more rice.
We were seated on the ground floor so we never got the chance to see the design on the second floor. I will definitely be back to try their other cuisines.

The ambience is really fantastic and artsy. And the food is affordable. The employees are also attentive to your needs. We wanted to sit upstairs because it looked cuter there (and there were no available seats down so) we had a mini shoot because every spot looks great. I wanted a room like that haha! We ordered the griddle steak, pasta pomodoro, lechon tacos, houseblend iced tea and apple fusion.
The griddle steak is tender so it was a surprise it's under 200. But the taste of herbs is strong in this one, so if you're not a fan better stay away. Btw its their best seller  apple fusion drink is good because it has lots of small cut up apples and it's for detox! Lechon tacos - a bit hard to eat and had lots of onions so if you're not a fan just say less onions I guess? Haha!
Since we were the only ones on the 2nd floor, we notice the waiter kept on going up and checking on us. We appreciated the effort in making sure we were comfortable and attended to. Kudos to the place and the employees!
PS: me and my friend were talking about the LSS to closer of chainsmokers and i guess they kinda heard it because they played it a few mins after we mentioned it (or coincidence but meh)
TRY IT OUT GUYS there's not much people @ around 4pm i guess that's the time we went there

Next stop on our short maginhawa foodtrip was Griddle. This new place in maginhawa just beside Theo has a nice Travel interior to it. The place is quite small but it was designed very nicely. Got an airplanes hanging on the ceiling. Tables got various passport stamps and passport designed as tissue holder. Wall has various pictures of different countries tourist landmark. As a traveller I love the simple cool concept of the place.
I tried out their Griddle steak which reminds me of the sizzling steak near school campus during my college days. It was a meal that I think that you'll typically find near school. The T-Bone steak tasted so so. Not bad but not something I'll be getting excited with. The meat also got an anggo aftertaste.
For the litson tacos, this one I liked the taste and flavors. Their version of pritson. The sarsa and bits of litson meat tasted good. This is something I'll order again.
Overall the place got a nice interior just quite small and packed. For the food it was cheap but need a little improvement. Especially their signature Griddle steak.

Decided to start my review with a favorite lunch tambayan.
Hands down my favorite cheap steak in Maginhawa. The flavors brought by the griddle adds another layer of smokiness to the steak (esp the fat part!)
Not to mention the fact that they don't use "Australian Prime blahblah / USDA blahblah". Their protein is 100% Pinoy. 🏻

A cozy little place in maginhawa where you can enjoy the food while enjoying the ambiance. Ordered the griddle steak (T-bone steak with rice and corn and carrots for P180) and it did not disappoint. Meat serving is generous, although you have to eat it immediately before the "sebo" sets in (place is airconditioned). Overall, the steak is yummy for its price, the place enjoyable as well. Will definitely come back. 🏻

Had lunch here yesterday, and was not disappointed. Ordered the Griddle Steak, and was yummy, the steak was well-cooked and I love the kimchi rice, gravy was 🏼. The only problem I had was the mashed potato, because it was not properly mashed.
But, overall I like the ambience of the place.

I don't usually eat out at fancy Maginhawa places when I'm broke (yes, please believe me - despite the majority of restaurants I reviewed here at Looloo can be found in Maginhawa lol. I'm a frugal lady, I'd like to think), but I do eat out for holidays. It just so happened that I haven't ate anything last November 1, and it's Halloween, so I might as well treat myself.
And thank goodness I did!!!!!!! I just went my merry way along Maginhawa, constantly asking myself what am I craving for as I surveyed each store. Then I remembered on my way to Theo's, there's this steak place that just popped out of nowhere and I knew I had to eat there. Dun na lang ata ako hindi nakakakain along that strip hehe. So I went in, and decided to sit at the second floor because there's a couple on the first floor and I didn't want to make istorbo their date. :D
Php 180 or 190, I forgot how much that steak cost but it was soooooo yummy, and the steak was easy to dig into. I savored my first bite and I knew I will go back, probably at a special day again. There was just so much meat and I thought I would need extra rice. I did stop myself, for health's sake. Overall, it was the BOMB! I really like their food, and I bet their other offerings are yummy too. They don't have a very extensive menu, I just noticed as I was ordering, but they are a steak place so it's not such a big deal. I'd say their steak was way better than that steak I ate from that really expensive restaurant at the first floor of Shangri-La (it was so preposterous I have deleted any memory of that place in my brain). So yeah! I highly recommend Griddle if you are craving for steak and want to celebrate the holidays by treating yourself to a sumptuous meal. :D

Ordered the following and Spaghetti Pomodoro w/ Pesto Chicken, Honey Bagoong Wing and their best seller Griddle Steak.
Food is okay, not so flavourful and it's already cold when they served it! I feel like they just re-heated it.
Food:
The ambiance is waaay better than their food.
Ambiance
The service is poor. They are slow in serving. We are the only customers that time, so they shouldn't have a problem preparing our food. What also turned me off, THEY TURNED THE MUSIC ON AND SING LIKE THEY ARE IN A KARAOKE BAR. THEY ARE LAUGHING LIKE THERE'S NO ONE IN THE RESTO. Sigh.
Service Negative star!

Tried a 2-month restaurant along Maginhawa. Ordered Bagoong Wings (P130.00), Steak (P144).00), Fried chicken (P140.00), and Pork Belly (P165.00). Steak was tough and didn't have enough flavor despite its affordable price. Pork Belly was average but the ambiance was well thought of since obviously the owners love to travel (foreign passports as tissue holders and model airplanes as a chandelier). Highlight would be the scrumptious chicken. It's definitely way better than most restaurants but its price for a one piece is a bit too much. Staff were attentive and amiable. Their menu is somewhat limited as well. Not horrible but nothing to rave about.

Went here earlier and we ordered their supposed specialties: griddle steak and southern-style fried chicken. Was very disappointed.
Chicken tasted ok but the chicken is smaller than a cup of rice and the meal costs P140. They said it included a side dish and I chose corn and carrots, it tasted ok but it was served like a garnish rather than a side dish.
Griddle steak tasted ok but was very tough and chewy. Steak was served still pinkish but still tough. We ordered mashed potato as a side dish and it tasted bad. It didn't have enough butter and salt. The serving is miniscule like the corn and carrot, yet we didn't even finish it. Its bad that paying P180 is way too much.
The ambience looks good, they had a travel theme going on. But the food is so-so, some ok, some downright bad. It's also over-priced for what you'll get. We won't come back here.

The one constant in life is change, and the life of an actor is no exception. In this change management training session, Jack analyzes the evolution of great actors and makes relevant, real-world business analogies that will help advance your organization. Your team will:
"All the world's a stage," and this session proves that point. Taking a cue from his acting days, Jack uses the tricks of improv to improve co-worker camaraderie. This session is sure to bring laughter and fun, but more importantly, it will develop positive communication to help enhance your organizational culture. Your group will:
Jack's unorthodox leadership presentation is arguably the most entertaining in his lineup. By using storytelling instead of a list of empty leadership quotes, you will learn the qualities that separate the leaders in Hollywood from the also-ran actors. At the end of the session:
Every successful actor knows what he/she is and builds a marketing strategy around that brand. Jack takes you through his humorous and humbling journey discovering he wasn't the next George Clooney and shows your group how to discover your niche and brand it. At the end of this session:
There are often hundreds of submissions for a single acting role in Hollywood, and this makes Jack a self-proclaimed expert when it comes to failure. In this session, he comically reminisces about his professional flops and encourages audiences to embrace smart failures that can lead to major successes. After this session:
Jack is hesitant to call himself a motivational speaker as it evokes visions of comedy legend Chris Farley "living in a van down by the river." How many times have you seen a motivational speaker and the impact of the message was lost in 24 hours? Instead of giving your audience a few feel-good moments, Jack demonstrates how you can sustain your own inspiration for the long haul in any walk of life. During this session, Jack will highlight:
Every movie star has an intangible quality that you can't quite put your finger on; or can you? In this session, Jack breaks down what makes certain actors superstars and shares how you can go from a bit player to a superstar in your organization. During the hour, Jack will explain:
Jack's message was perfect!
Each year we have new staff and volunteers that must be able to engage audiences with their presentation skills and Jack delivers exactly what we need to get them there!
Professional communicators are a dime a dozen; Jack Stahlmann is a rare egg worth well more than the other dozen. He's got the intangible "it" factor.
Excellent! Jack is wonderful--in my opinion the best speaker we've ever had.

|Looks like he's been here for a while
Before leaving Trois Pistoles we went and checked our email quickly. We have not come across many places with internet access so as well as being behind on updating our website I am also well behind on emails - sorry all!
We had a slow, easy, pootle north along the coast stopping for provisions along the way at Rimouski. The St Lawrence River is now so wide that it is a struggle to see the north shore. It is probably now sea rather than river. The light here reminds me of St Ives in Cornwall - it has a magical quality that gives an enticing edge to everything we pass along the way. The colour of the sea changes from black to slate grey to a deep purple/mauve colour. In the early afternoon we stopped at a little village, pulling in to a roadside rest place and has some lunch. It was cool and pretty windy but with the benefit of cooking facilities on board we were soon warmed up with soup and hot drinks.
At Rimouski we went in search of a small portable barbecue. We have disposable ones but would prefer a small one that we can re-use and stash in the back of Mortimer. The supermarket sent us to Wal-Mart who had one that looked guaranteed to fall apart after one use. All the others that were small and would fit the bill were propane fuelled gas burners, in effect a hob for ouside use. Lots of RV's (recreational vehicles) have them but it is not what we are after. They sent us on to the Carrefour centre and with no luck at Zellers we went on to Canadian Tire. With a name like that I had expected I had not expected success. The shop was a mix between Halfords and a sports shop/outdoor shop. They had the same selection of mega grills that we had seen in other places but also had a cheap portable one with detachable legs. I joked to Stef that having now bought the barbecue the weather would probably be too bad to use it.
We called it a halt for the day at Cap Chat. The wind had picked up and our campsite was right on the sea. As we drove in we followed another Roadtrek, older but bigger than ours. As Stef booked us in for the night the other Roadtrek was driving back out and I though they had decided it was too windy to stay. They did come back though.
|In contemplative mood
The campsite was small but had everything we needed. There were a couple of other motor-homes and a few people camping in tents. Rather them than me - the wind by now was pretty fierce. We decided it was a bit too blowy for an al fresco dinner deiipte having a brand new barbecue and just made it comfy indoors. The view out to sea was undisturbed, apart from the clouds and the storm rolling our way. When it came, the rain was pretty fierce but it only lasted for fifteen minutes or so. The strong winds quickly blew the storm inland and I watched the skies ahead getting darker and darker as those behind and above us cleared to yield a crisp night sky.
I started the mammoth task of getting diaries up to date but abandoned it as Stef started cooking. What was meant to be an simple dinner resulted in too many questions for me to concentrate. We tried a couple of new games from the card games book we have bought in Montreal. Tablanette we decided was not much fun, it ends up being too one sided, but we quite like California Jack, a trick taking game. I really need my sister Beccie for this game as she always seemed good at remembering which cards had been played when we played card games at home (or was it, as with Monopoly, just more cheating on the sly -only she knows!!).
With the landscape becoming more hilly we again seem to have problems with the fridge. It could just be that the gases it runs off need time to settle but we are not sure. We opted to run it off the mains until morning and then see what happens.

Mumijo which is pronounced: moo-mee-o is a naturally occurring dark mineral substance found in rock crevices at altitudes of 2,000 - 5,000 meters in mountainous regions of Asia.
For centuries, Mumijo has built a reputation on its variety of uses mostly related to health and longevity. Specifically, Mumijo has been shown to benefit both the human metabolic and immune systems. The origin of Mumijo is shrouded in mystery, and its actual composition has been a matter for debate for centuries. There are those who believe that is a concentration of fossilized honey, beeswax and bees nests that have evolved to their current composition over thousands of years.
The use of Mumijo in treating burns and accelerating the healing of other traumatic injuries as well as postoperative healing has been well documented. There are virtually no contraindications to taking Mumijo. It is non-toxic and safe to use over all age groups. It is given to pregnant woman in Russia to promote the growth of a healthy foetus, containing as it does, all the elements necessary for human growth.
Mumijo SPA
In their article Aillo et al detail the use of Mumijo as a widely used traditional medicine, especially in Russia, Altai Mountains, Mongolia, Iran Kasachstan and in Kirgistan and report that Mumijo preparations have been successfully used for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases in these countries demonstrating immune-stimulating and anti-allergic activity. In their study they investigate the chemical composition and the biomedical potential of a Mumijo product collected from Antarctica. They report that the yellow material originates from the snow petrels, Pagodroma nivea. Extensive purification and chemical analysis was carried out on the material collected and it was revealed that the fossil samples were a mixture of glycerol derivatives. In vitro experiments showed that the Mumijo extract caused a strong neuroprotective effect in cortical neurons against the apoptosis-inducing amyloid peptide fragment β-fragment. In addition, the fraction rich in glycerol ethers/wax esters displayed significant growth-promoting activity in permanent neuronal PC12 cells.
Finally the authors concluded that this new Mumijo preparation had distinct and marked neuro-protective activity, very likely due to the content of glycerol ether derivatives.

"From beneath you, it devours."
High school is a rough time for most of us. Joss Whedon took this basic truth and turned it into brilliance in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, where high school's metaphorical terrors turn literal. And given that high school is hell, where better to locate a hellmouth then directly under Sunnydale High?
Big deal. So there's a hellmouth under Sunnydale High, so what? Well, for parents considering sending their children there, they should know that, while Buffy attended Sunnydale High, the hellmouth was located directly under the library and even when the school was rebuilt they decided to put the hellmouth directly under the principal's office. And this hellmouth is not for the faint of heart. At times there were large, octupi-like demons that would reach up into the libary out of the hellmouth (for example, in The Zeppo, one of my favorite Buffy episodes ever). Later, under the rebuilt high school, the First Evil stocked up on uber-vampires known as Turok-Hans inside the hellmouth, preparing to take over the world.
Having such a hellmouth under the high school obviously has an impact on the safety (even the life expectancy) of students attending the school. The question is – can somebody be held responsible for this poor design plan? And the answer is – yes.
In California, the state in which the fictional Sunnydale High is set, a public entity such as a school can be held responsible for an injury caused by a dangerous condition of its property if you can show that: (1) the property was in a dangerous condition at the time of the injury; (2) the injury was proximately caused by the dangerous condition; (3) the dangerous condition created a reasonably foreseeable risk of the kind of injury that was incurred; (4) and either (a) a negligent or wrongful act or omission of an employee of the school created the dangerous condition within the scope of his employment , or (b) the school had actual or constructive notice of the dangerous condition a sufficient time prior to the injury to have taken measures to protect against the dangerous condition.
All of the above can certainly be established for students and staff at Sunnydale High. The Hellmouth is certainly a dangerous condition that caused physical harm and/or death to many students and staff (for example, the great psychologist Mr. Platt). As for the type of risk suffered (e.g., killed by werewolves, turned into sea monsters), the law does not require that the precise nature of the accident be foreseeable – just that the general character of the event should be foreseeable. Demonic activity and bizarre metamorpheses are certainly the general types of events that could be foreseen when your school is built on top of a hellmouth. Finally, while the residents of Sunnydale were willing to turn a blind eye to dangerous conditions that existed in the entire town, an objective outsider would argue that, at least by the end of the first season, the school had active or constructive notice of the hellmouth's existence.
In sum, Sunnydale High turns on its head the general belief held by courts that "schools are not considered to be dangerous places per se." The matriculation rate at Sunnydale High had to be shockingly low, with many sad losses of students, staff, and faculty (although Harmony actually improved after death). And a good lawyer could have made the school pay for that…assuming, of course, that Mayor Wilkins didn't kill her first.

Here are a few highlights from the classic car industry from the last few months….
EU proposes ban on chrome plating
Classic car experts have warned that chrome plating will disappear as a decorative feature from 2019 if new EU regulations come into force. The EU seeks to prevent the use of hexavalent chromium, which it views as a carcinogen and is on its list of banned substances.
The proposed substitute, trivalent chromium, has caused concern for plating companies as it's not viewed as tough enough to withstand the rigours of everyday driving. Unlike hexavalent, trivalent does not self-repair – if the surface is scratched the part is likely to corrode.
As classic car parts are often no longer in manufacture, the ability to re-chrome existing parts is important for restorers. Unless an exclusion to the ban is sought and granted, this option will no longer be available to us in Europe.
Classic car industry cautiously welcomes proposed shift in historic vehicle status
Reaction to a proposal from the Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs (FBHVC) to shift the cut-off for historic vehicle status to 30 years is revealed in an article by www.classiccarsforsale.co.uk.
The proposed shift will see 30-year old cars become eligible for vehicle exercise duty (VED) exemption. Currently only cars over 40 years old qualify for this status. The article reports mixed opinions on how this will affect the industry.
Jaguar Land Rover's manufacturing success continues
The UK motoring industry is in a buoyant mood after news that Jaguar Land Rover is to create a further 1300 jobs at its manufacturing site in Solihull. The company recently announced it was adding a new model to its Jaguar portfolio, which will follow the Jaguar XE into production at new facilities within the world-renowned plant.
Collectively the size of 22 football pitches, the new state-of-the-art facilities bring the Jaguar brand to Solihull for the first time. The investment in the facility is the largest in its 70-year history and testament to the company's aim of accelerating its industry-leading expertise in aluminium and lightweight technologies.
The Jaguar XJS approaches its 40th birthday
At a London press launch in September 1975, Jaguar unveiled its new sports tourer model – the XJS. Later this year, as we approach its 40th birthday, we'll mark the occasion with a fitting celebration. Watch this space!
For more information on the history of this model, visit our website.
I trawled your website and found it to be very interested and thought provoking, keep up the good work(I visited your website after James May mentioned it on a repeat episode of TopGear) please send me any interesting items referring to classic car restoration and the like, I should win the lottery soon so will shortly be a customer!, well I have been doing it from day one!, Warm regards, Ray Webb.

Rick Santorum's daughter Bella will be released from the hospital on Monday, a campaign spokesperson told CNN.
"We appreciate the outpouring of support and prayers," spokesperson Hogan Gidley told CNN. "The prayers worked, she's doing much better, so we're thankful for that. It puts things in perspective."
Bella was taken to the hospital last Friday. Bella, age 3, suffers from Trisomy 18, which means that she has three copies of the 18th chromosome instead of two. This leads to abnormal brain and heart development, among other things. Often, babies born with the disorder do not live more than a few years.
Santorum canceled all campaign events -- even internal -- to be with his daughter on Monday. His campaign has said he will return to the trail on Tuesday.
"Senator Santorum will not hold any public campaign events on Monday so that he and Karen can remain in the hospital with their daughter Bella," communications director Hogan Gidley said in a statement on Saturday, according to CNN. "The entire Santorum family is incredibly grateful for the outpouring of prayers and support."
In January, Bella Santorum was hospitalized after contracting pneumonia in both lungs. But she made a "remarkable turn" over a 48-hour span and recovered.
Santorum will get back on the campaign trail on Tuesday, when he will attempt to ramp up lagging support in his home state of Pennsylvania. Amid faltering support and growing momentum around likely nominee Mitt Romney, Santorum has faced increased calls to drop out of the race.
A new Pew Research Center poll released Monday shows that 74 percent of Republican or Republican-leaning voters think that Romney will "definitely" be the Republican nominee. And 47 percent said the drawn-out primary has damaged the party.

The latest attempt to squeeze savaings out of federal employees came in the form of a bill that would require agency employees to take 10 days off without pay in fiscal 2012. The furlough would not require employees to take off two weeks straight -- they can take one day a month during 10 of the 12 months of the year, for example -- but it does require losing a day's pay 10 times during the year.
The impact of this on employees would of course vary. For some feds in higher pay grades, or with spouses who also earn substantial incomes, it might be minor. For younger, lower-paid single federal employees, it could be very difficult.
But there's another question, raised by an anonymous reader who posted this comment: " In this age of expanded teleworking, what manager is not going to expect people to work from home even when furloughed? If I get furloughed, I am going to drop the BlackBerry on the boss's desk on my way out."
Another commenter. RayW, said the workload is too heavy to take time off even voluntarily. "I have a hard time using my PAID leave because of my work load," he wrote. " If I knew I had a week off without pay I would have to do overtime before and after to get my projects back on track since we are evaluated on FIRM dates of delivery, not sliding dates at the whim of some over-paid over-benefited lawmaker. So where is the savings when I am doing the hours in overtime to compensate for the time off?"
What about you? If you're required to take unpaid time off, will you still try to do some work? Check e-mail? Return calls? Work on documents? Will you take the day off completely off? Will your work suffer to the extent you'll need extra time to get it back in order?
Tell us in the comments.

I can tell you what I did about furlough days. I made a website for it:
I decided to turn a down into an up and help others while I'm at it.
This is the way our Government works. Then they wonder why they can't decrease the deficit.
The Japanese and the Americans decided to have a canoe race on the Missouri River.
Both the teams practiced hard and long to reach their peak performance before the race. On the big day the Japanese won by a mile.
Afterward, the American team became very discouraged and morally depressed. The American management decided the reason for the crushing defeat had to be found.
A "Management Team" made up of senior management was formed to investigate and recommend appropriate action. Their conclusion was the Japanese had 8 people rowing and 1 person steering, while the American team had 8 persons steering and one person rowing.
So American management hired a consulting company and paid them an incredible amount of money. They advised that too many people were steering the boat, while not enough people were rowing.
To prevent losing to the Japanese again next year, the rowing team's management structure was totally reorganized to 4 steering supervisors, 3 area steering superintendents and 1 assistant superintendent steering manager.
They also implemented a new performance system that would give the 1 person rowing the boat greater incentive to work harder. It was called the "Rowing Team Quality First Program," with meetings, dinners and free pens for the rower. "We must give the rower the empowerment and enrichments through this quality program."
The next year the Japanese won by two miles! Humiliated, the American management laid off the rower for poor performance, halted development of a new canoe, sold the paddles, and canceled all capital investments for new equipment.
Then they distributed the money saved as bonuses to the senior executives.
Well, I won't have any choice but to work thru it, because I have projects with independent funding... but if I did have time off? I would get to work and get the inside of my mother's house painted. It hasn't been painted since around 1985 (she died last year) and it's quite a job!
yeah being furloghed is scarry really My husband and i are both MILTECHS and Reservist. plus just because i have off from work doesn't mean my day care would let me off for my 150 a week.yes we save but only in the TSP everything else goes to bills. i say those guys up high need to take a 5% pay cut i mean how they gotta be making 20 X's the amount working class makes
I would love to take Thursday and friday for 5 extra four day weekends or better combine it with a already three day weekend and have 5 days off....I like the idea. I am willing to give up pay for more time off with my kids! But what about congressmen and women? Why not reduce their rediculous pay- they more than make up any losses in earmarks anyway!

The Corporate Executive Board Company ("CEB" or "the Company") (NYSE: EXBD) today announced that its Board of Directors has approved a new $50 million stock repurchase program, which is authorized through Dec. 31, 2012. During the third quarter of 2011, CEB also utilized the remaining amount available under its previous stock repurchase plan, which was approximately $18.3 million as of June 30, 2011.
"The Board's decision to implement a new share repurchase program reflects confidence in our growth opportunities and in our ability to generate strong cash flows," said Thomas Monahan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "Our priorities for capital allocation remain unchanged: maintain a strong financial position, preserve flexibility for strategic investments, and intelligently distribute cash to shareholders – primarily through our dividend. This new share repurchase program supplements this strategy by allowing us to opportunistically offset historical and future dilution from employee equity compensation programs."
Repurchases under the program may be made through open market purchases or privately negotiated transactions. The timing of repurchases and the exact number of shares of common stock to be repurchased will be determined by CEB's management, in its discretion, and will depend upon market conditions and other factors. The program will be funded using the Company's cash on hand and cash generated from operations.

Air on the Side of Caution
Jamie M. Robertson, PhD, MPH, and Charles N. Pozner, MD; April 2018
A clinical team decided to use a radial artery approach for cardiac catheterization in a woman with morbid obesity. It took multiple attempts to access her radial artery. After catheter insertion, she experienced pain and pressure in her arm and chest. Review of the angiogram demonstrated the presence of an air embolism in the left coronary artery, introduced during the catheter insertion. Due to the difficulty of the procedure, the technician had failed to hold the syringe at the proper angle and introduced an air bubble into the patient's vessel.

A Shipping Company purchases a machine for $28,000 on credit, and a month later makes a partial payment of $23,000 for the machine. The overall result of the 2 transactions combined will cause:
A. Total Liabilities to increase by $5,000
B. Total Assets to decrease by $23,000
C. Total Assets to decrease by $5,000
D. Total Liabilities to decrease by $5,000
E. Total Assets to remain unchanged
Answer: A
Explanation to Solution:
28000 on credit implies a Liability
23000 of 28000 is paid , yet the company still has an outstanding liabilities balance of 28000-23000 = 5000.
This is because the partial payment of 23000 decreases the asset (cash) by 23000, remember the question asked for the 'overall result' of the 2 transactions. You must remember that cash is not the only form of Asset. For example, if you buy office equipment with cash, you are trading one asset for another type of asset.

Purchasing on Credit Partial Payments
1 comment:
hi, can you clarify why liabilities increase by $5000.
Liabilities was already 28K from purchasing on credit, and so I would have thought the best answer would be that liabilities decreased by 23,000.
Since that isn't an option, then i would have picked E, since the value of assets remain the same after both transactions.

The Beer:
Ephesus (Eff-e-sus) is a Golden Sour Ale (7% ABV) fermented with our house cultures and aged in American oak barrels for one year. This deceptively mild looking beer is intensely sour with complex notes of ripe peach, pear, vanilla, and honey, and finishes with a dry yet full mouth feel. Pour slowly and enjoy in a tulip glass.
Batch #1 (released February 26, 2016) was brewed in December 2014, fermented with a mix of Saccharomyces, Brettanomyces, Lactobacillus, and Pediococcus, bottled in December 2015, and conditioned in bottles for 2 months prior to release.
At a glance, some might think that we add fruit to all of our beers. Although we do like to add fruit to a lot of our beers, such as our Beatitude Tart Saisons, we also like to create beers where the malt, oak, and bugs get to shine. Such is the case with our latest bottle release Ephesus. In this beer, we didn't add fruit but you won't miss it.
This is one of our more sour barrel aged beers, but still very balanced. As a brewer and drinker of beer, I prefer my beer to be balanced so I can enjoy a whole glass. I don't want to have just a taster and think to myself "that's all I can drink," or I don't want to feel like the enamel is coming off my teeth. I also like to have each characteristic to be noticeable but not over powering.
When we first started tasting Ephesus from the barrels (about 6 months ago), we were so excited for when this beer would be ready. You could just taste the budding of something amazing. Fast forward several months to when we were getting ready to bottle and it was everything we'd ever want a golden sour to be. Sour but balanced; stone fruit notes, but no fruit added; honey and vanilla notes from the barrel, but not sweet. This beer brings a smile to my face.
Ephesus was aged in the barrels for just over a year. It is very drinkable now (and I have already enjoyed a couple glasses of it); however, it will age very nicely.

Globalization of R&D and Developing Countries(2007)
AbstractReflecting a broader trend towards the off shoring of services, a number of developing countries are attracting foreign direct investment in research and development. Transnational corporations, including the ones headquartered in developed countries, are selecting developing countries as locations for such activities. With the off shoring of research and development, firms aim to access the skills of new locations, adapting products to local markets and reducing their costs, in response to competitive pressures, technological changes and a more liberal trade and investment environment. In particular, information and communication technologies have had a profound effect on the way economic activities, including research and development, are organized, enabling firms to allocate tasks on a global scale through intra-firm information networks. At the same time, keeping up with new developments in information and communication technologies is a major challenge for developing countries wishing to accelerate their economic development. This paper aims to elaborate key issues related to the trends towards globalization of research and development and their implications for developing countries, and highlights how the establishment research and development abroad affect the transfer of technology. In addition to this , it serves to explain the main potential benefits of foreign direct investment and entails how policies in home and host countries influence the allocation of such activities and what the possible economic impacts are and finally what benefits and costs are involved in the process of globalization of R&D.

Following the successful experience with the Asian Cadet Circuit, the FCA Executive Board in its meeting in Bangkok on September 7, 2017 has decided to implement online inscription for participation to FCA competitions. This means that entries of fencers to participate in competitions will now be done thru the FCA website. Such competitions include the Asian Juniors and Cadet Fencing Championships (AJCFC) - cadets only, the Asian Under 23 Fencing Championships (AU23), and the Asian Veterans Fencing Championships (AVFC).
To take effect in all competitions starting in 2018, this new procedure would require national federations to register with the FCA and acquire its own NOC Code and token. Once registered, the NFs must enter the profile of their fencers and inscribe them to the preferred competition and events to be played. Prior to the inscription, however, the NFs must apply for an Asian license for all their fencers which should be valid for the season of the competitions.
Not included in this new procedure are the Asian (seniors) Fencing Championships (AFC), and the junior events of the AJCFC. In both these competitions, fencers are already required to secure a valid FIE license and inscribed thru the FIE website online.
The decision of the FCA Executive Board is to (1) efficiently verify the age eligibility of the fencers, (2) strictly adhere to the prescribed deadline for inscription, (3) ensure completeness of entries for easy reference and use of the competition organizers and DT, and (4) to instill diligence within the NFs to observe guidelines and deadlines.
Part of the decision of the FCA Executive Board in connection with the inscription process, any late entry of fencers may be allowed only upon payment of a USD100 penalty fee, and may be accepted only until the Team Managers' meeting of such competition.

Q: Tell me a little bit about the site and some of your work you have been doing?
A: My website happened when I realized how I could be putting my skills to use for local artists and entrepreneurs in Grand Rapids. I actually had been doing email marketing and web maintenance previously at my old job for credit unions. On my website (whitneybecker.com) you can see the marketing solutions I offer, my Etsy shop where I sell vinyl and vintage clothing, and my spotlight page where you can see my latest work featuring Angelea, a live visual artist, and soon Venson Dix, an inspiring producer. You can also find more inside scoops happening in Grand Rapids.
Q: How does your creative process work and do you have anything especially unique to your designs?
A: My creative process would involve getting to know the artist and their idea more at a local coffee shop. There is no beginning, I typically just start and it's hard for me to stop, and then there usually is vinyl playing in the background. I've always liked keeping my designs clean, so the point is clear but it's important to have a catchy design or flow to keep your recipients' third eye open.
Q: You do a lot of different things; design, email marketing, web maintenance, social media, and even a vinyl shop. Is there one of these things that you most enjoy doing?
A: I really enjoy making people's dreams come true…Tacky? I don't care. If it's helping someone find the vinyl they have been looking for to complete their record collection or a vinyl that has an amazing sample a producer can cook up and make a hit track with, then I'm a happy girl. I have this inspiring momentum for people's success and think that's just how it should be in Grand Rapids. I really do love marketing talented people in any way I can. My brain is this continuous ball of inspiration going down a very steep hill.
Q: Who are some people that most influenced you and your design?
A: One particular, Rick Chyme. He was the first person to actually believe in me and inspire me to push the start button on my website. We had coffee one evening, and after sitting there in complete awe he made me realize my worth and full potential. He tends to have that effect on you. For that – I thank him. He has been inspirational to many.
Q: How did you become so involved in the music scene here in Grand Rapids?
A: I have been surrounded by music junkies my whole life. My parents were actually DJ's back in their day and I honestly think this is how I was engineered by the two: My dad who has been in a band for the past 12+ years, passed me his vinyl collection and record player. He also taught me everything there is to know about computers and had me learning at a very young age. My mother passed me her business skills and creative hat on how to sell basically anything. She is very intelligent and shows extreme passion. They have always taken me to concerts and I started going to more and more music festivals and local shows, then I turned 21 and really saw more shows and you know the story…. The music I followed became a drug. It's really hard to stay away from when there is this much talent being shoved in my face. From there, I've found some amazing people that I knew I wanted to support and help become more successful.
Q: What do you think makes Grand Rapids music, fashion, and art scene so unique?
A: I think this Grand Rapids movement is so unique because there is such variety in music and people striving for the same success. People could disagree but I see the talent in Grand Rapids and these beautiful humans filled with so many ideas, dreams and when I see vintage inventory at the Downtown Market and companies like Rock Paper Scissors, I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. Not to mention, the hottest event in Grand Rapids that gives exposure to the trendiest producers; The Beat Suite. Our city is finally getting recognized and I'm excited to be a part of everything that is blossoming.
Q: What are your hopes and dreams for everything you are working on?
A: My ultimate dream is to be doing this as my full-time job. I hope to use my skills in a creative way to make these music artists, visual artists, and anyone with an idea profit off their own talents; and when using proper marketing techniques, anything is possible. With your name reaching more and more cities, you're bound to blow up. I want these artists in Grand Rapids to get the credit they deserve. If I could do this for a full time job and have enough clientele, this would be a dream come true.
