A while ago, I heard from a reader in Victoria who wondered why The Globe and Mail did not capitalize the term "first nation." It was an excellent question and one deserving of a serious look. The Globe's Style Guide said very simply that when the term first nation is used "it is lower case unless we are giving the band's formal name: the Kettle Point First Nation. The term applies to status Indian bands that belong to the Assembly of First Nations…"
But our reader, Michael Asch, sent in a very well-reasoned argument on why this needed changing. Professor Asch, an expert in Canada on the issue, is professor emeritus of anthropology at the University of Alberta and an adjunct professor in anthropology and political science at the University of Victoria. He has been studying political relations between indigenous peoples and Canada for 40 years.
I asked him why he thought the capitalization was more correct than the grammatical argument that you do not capitalize titles if they are generic rather than specific. For example: "a prime minister could be expected to…" versus "The Prime Minister is expected to…"
He noted that First Nations has become a term of self-designation among those that society has labelled "Indian" in the past. "People once identified (perhaps even self-identified) as 'Indians' now use the term to describe themselves collectively and individually. And, when they do that in writing, it is always using capital letters – that is, it strikes me that it is being used as a substitute for the word 'Indian' which is always capitalized. Therefore it is the matter of equivalence. To change what they say is 'First Nations' to 'first nations' is to change 'Indians' to 'indians.' In short, if it is a mistake not to capitalize 'Indians,' than it is a mistake not to capitalize 'First Nations.'
His very strong argument was passed on to senior editors at The Globe who were considering that change and also whether to make further updates to the Style Guide. During that time period, Prof. Asch noted a Globe story that showed the problem with the current usage. The story said: "That first nations, Inuit and Métis people are overrepresented in federal prisons is not news." Prof. Asch noted that in that phrase, "first nations" was being used as a synonym for "Indians" and you would never use that term without capitalizing it.
So you will notice Monday that The Globe's style has changed and the organization will capitalize First Nations. It is a definite strength of The Globe that there are knowledgeable readers who ask these questions and hold The Globe to a high standard.
By the way, I heard from a number of readers who were interested in purchasing the Style Guide. Although it is the 2003 edition, it is available through both Amazon.ca and Chapters/Indigo.

here is the place i go to find you.
to put a simple lake by your feet.
to make amends with the sun
wading in around us.
i call it clemency and i like it just fine.
the locals speak seven tongues of sympathy
and the fountains here weep.
the homes are damn cheap and the sun never
sinks here in clemency.
i've come here with bags full of bones
to find you face down in the lake
where you drowned. to flip you over.
so the sun can move on here in clemency.

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
Computer generated imagery - or as it is called, CGI, has given movies of today an unlimited palette in which to sketch fantastical sights to movie audiences. It wasn't always that way. In the case of movie special effects mastermind Ray Harryhausen, it was literally a case of one movie frame at a time. Harryhausen has passed away at the age of 93.
Ray Harryhausen was a definite "hands on" type of guy when it came to special effects. His creatures were painstakingly animated and then photographed frame-by-frame.
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)

Published in Movies
Keywords: Ray Harryhausen, special effects, mythology, science-fiction, fantasy, horror
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Many of those working in the movies today in the fantasy film genre - such as Peter Jackson, Guillermo Del Toro, James Cameron and Steven Spielberg were introduced to the world of special effects through Harryhausen.
"Harryhausen's fascination with animated models began when he first saw Willis O'Brien's creations in 'King Kong' with his boyhood friend, the author Ray Bradbury in 1933, and he made his first foray into filmmaking in 1935 with home-movies that featured his youthful attempts at model animation," an official statement from his family read.
"Over the period of the next 46 years, he made some of the genres best known movies - 'Mighty Joe Young' (1949), 'It Came from Beneath the Sea' (1955), 20 Million Miles to Earth' (1957), 'Mysterious Island' (1961),'One Million Years B.C.'(1966), 'The Valley of the Gwangi' (1969), three films based on the adventures of 'Sinbad' and 'Clash of the Titans' (1981). He is perhaps best remembered for his extraordinary animation of seven skeletons in 'Jason and the Argonauts' (1963) which took him three months to film."
Harryhausen was a definite "hands on" type of guy when it came to special effects. His creatures were painstakingly animated and then photographed frame-by-frame. "In Ray's hands they were no longer puppets but became instead characters in their own right, just as important as the actors they played against and in most cases even more so."
The Ray & Diana Harryhausen Foundation, a charitable Trust set up by Ray on the 10th April 1986, is devoted to the protection of Ray's name and body of work as well as archiving, preserving and restoring Ray's extensive Collection.
A multi-award winner which includes a special Oscar and BAFTA, Harryhausen saw the writing on the wall in 1981. With the advent of computers, "Clash of the titans" was his final film.
The news of his death has many luminaries in today's entertainment world giving credit where credit was due.
George Lucas: "Ray has been a great inspiration to us all in special visual industry. The art of his earlier films, which most of us grew up on, inspired us so much." "Without Ray Harryhausen, there would likely have been no 'Star Wars!'"
Director Peter Jackson also gave his testimony to Harryhausen. "'The Lord of the Rings' is my 'Ray Harryhausen movie.' Without his life-long love of his wondrous images and storytelling it would never have been made - not by me at least"
Finally, from Steven Spielberg: "I think all of us who are practitioners in the arts of science fiction and fantasy movies now all feel that we're standing on the shoulders of a giant. If not for Ray's contribution to the collective dreamscape, we wouldn't be who we are."

Key to the house you live in.
Poster Handle
Anonymous Coward

So here is the situation.
I just got married and moved in with my wife who was a single woman with children. We dated for many years prior to marriage. I now pay half the bills and the bulk of the rent, as well as help provide food. She has three children, I have two. Two of her kids are over 19 and one no longer live with us. Her and my youngest sons do live with us, both are teens. Her second oldest who is 19 comes and goes at his whim. He
a house key which I found while doing laundry. I gave it to my wife.
Now that we are married and living together and I am paying for over half the expenses, I requested that the key her son had, be given to me. She told me that she did not know where it was.
I used a set of nail clippers off of her night stand to trim my nails and noticed the key sitting in the tray next to them, so I put it in my pocket. Being one of the responsible parties for maintaining the home, I feel that I am entitled to a key. I also went and had a duplicate key made. I did not tell her that I took the key or made a key. I figured it was a moot point.
She claims she did not know where the key was, yet when it was no longer there, she asked if I took it. I told her I did. She asked for it back and I gave it to her. A few day later, she asked if I had made a duplicate. I did not deny doing that either and answered her honestly.
Now she says that because I took the key and made a key she wants me out and wants to file for separation, because it was "not mine to take". I beg to differ. We are married, we live in the same home and I am entitled to a key to the house.
It is fairly evident that she
did know
where the key was, or she would not have asked what happened to it. Based upon that, she either did not plan on giving me a key, or, she wasn't prepared to give it to me yet. In either case, it seems to point to a control issue she has.
I am not saying I was right by taking the key without telling her and/or making one. I do however believe that if she really intended to give me a key, that she would not have had a problem with me taking it or making a duplicate however? Also, I was honest with her about doing it.
Now that I have explained the situation, I would like to hear others thoughts on this? Was I wrong? Am I not entitled to take the key and/or make a duplicate? Oh and yes we RENT, neither of us own the home.
Anonymous Coward 27729072
You don't have a key to your OWN HOUSE?
....and having one made...all hell breaks loose??
Stand back and think about that for a few seconds until reality sinks into your skull.
Here....allow me to help you........

Date published: 2015-01-16 Rated 2 out of 5 by vienna16 from not recommended They don't shape the boots as they should, because they are not wide enough. They just stand in the boots. With other boot shapers I have, you can lift the boots up by the shaper handle. With these, when you go to lift them up the shapers just come out of the boots. I have tried them in all of my boots and it's the same in all of them. Very disappointing.

Google demos latest Android UI, possibly shows HTC Dream
Yesterday at the Google IO developer conference, Andy Rubin and some other folks from Google ran a demo of the latest and greatest version of the Android platform running on a mysterious piece of hardware that could be the HTC Dream. The Google guys refused to name the device, citing an NDA, but they did mention that it was running a Qualcomm CPU at 528MHz and used a capacitive display like that found on the iPhone.
The demo showed off a number of new UI enhancements, including the notifications system that is linked to the status bar at the top of the display. A new clock was also shown off, as was a new app launcher. One of the more interesting new features appears to be the magnifying glass that has been added to the Webkit based Android browser. The magnifying glass makes it easier to read and deal with small buttons and text on a web page.
Check out the two videos below from the demo that were shot by our friends at AndroidCommunity.

Do You Have What It Takes To Take...I Mean Make A Hit?
Hark! Let he who has ears to hear, let him hear, for the Latter, Latter Day Prophets have spoken. Like Nostradamus and Joseph Smith before them, Perez Hilton, The Superficial and countless numbers of other celebrity gossip blogs have foretold great and terrible things.
Behold, Britney Spears as the Whore of Babylon, "with whom the K-Feds of the earth have committed fornication, and the blog readers of the earth have been made stupid with the pictures thereof" (newly translated from the KJV). Behold, the seven plagues upon the earth: Painful sores are released upon nations/crotches by GGW's Joe Francis; all sea creatures die, killed by a vacationing Courtney Love; rivers turn to blood in an attempt to imitate Kylie Minogue's lipstick; the sun scorches those who curse the name of God, who made an example out of Christina Aguilera; the earth plunges into darkness, pleasing only nightclubber Lindsay Lohan and cursing those forced to look at pictures of her partying; the Euphrates dries up, sucked empty by the parched skin of Sharon Stone; and finally, the shit hits the fan, hail-storm style, forming the earth into great dimples, like those on the backs of Mischa Barton's thighs.
I kind of wanted to give up after plague four, but I was really dedicated to that joke, so I hope you all really soak that in. Anyway, this is what I'm getting at:
The entertainment world's coming to an end, and only you can save it by auditioning for Making The Next Hit, a reality show featuring Lil' Wayne and a bunch of wanna be rappers, producers, dancers, models, singers and comedians who will compete to produce a new hit song. Don't ask me why they need the models and comedians, I'm just passing on what the Craigslist ad says.
I talked to one of the audition organizers, and he says they're expecting so many people that they had to move the auditions from the Courtyard Marriott at North Central Expressway and Meadow Road all the way to...the Holiday Inn next door. This is bigtime. Holla. Now I gotta get back to working on my beats. --Andrea Grimes

Drop sets have been around since god was a lad but sometimes they get forgotten and more often than not they are used in a way that makes the exercise easier instead of harder !
Let's explain that last part, most people I see drop the weight down before they really hit true momentary muscular failure and they also drop it down by more weight than they need to.......both of these actions serve to make the exercise easier instead of harder.
Yesterday I used them on the leg press, I started with 540 lbs and did maybe 5 slow strict reps to failure, my wife then removed one 45 lb plate which allowed me to get maybe another 4-5 reps, after another 45 lb plate was removed I squeezed out another very tough 4-5 reps.....I continued till I failed at rep 22 and could stand the pain no longer.
For a few minutes I was physically unable to get up out of the seat and once I stood up the nausea started. For the following few minutes I retched, fighting hard not to mess up the nice gym floor.
My legs remained shaky for about an hour and they left me feeling physically drained. There is no way that I could have done a second set and even if there was it would have been surplus to requirements as that one set had already done it's job.
I find these work best on machines as you can just remove weight from one side at a time, obviously you have to remove from both sides when using a barbell !
Give them a try and let me know what you think.
This is one of my favorite old clips of Bertil Fox using them on the Bench Press:
I have pretty good strength endurance at the moment and I am using 20 plates on the leg press machine for the top set. I usually start the set with my legs in a frog stance aiming for 12 good reps before lockout on top. When close to failure I stop at top and rest for around 10 seconds and then I go for 8 more reps. So comes another 10 seconds of rest and changing foot position to low on the wagon, like I should do heel raises and I shoot for the same numbers of reps and rest. And finally I put my legs in the middle and do the same, hitting butt and hamstring harder. Usually the reps of such a giant set range total 5060 reps. Then I strip off two plates and do the same, pausing for around 20 seconds, and then another set
"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident."
- Schopenhauer
Not to be a complete spoilsport (cos what you describe does sound fun!), but with such extreme muscular limit-pushing and getting to the point of feeling physically ill, how does one dodge the risk of something like rhabdomyolysis? I.e., how to recognize when you've gone too far??... Genuinely wondering.
For an experienced trainee the drop set described will not lead to anything like that. If you attempted to do several more sets in this manner then it could I guess. But done correctly you will not even remotely want to do a second go around. It may sound fun but trust me, if you are doing it correctly it is not fun in the least. Its a brutal experience through and through.

To Push or to Cut? Decision-Making in Childbirth Amid the Brazilian Cesarean Epidemic
Latinos in the United States typically live longer than whites — a phenomenon commonly referred to as the "Hispanic Paradox" or "Latino Mortality Advantage."
While not totally understood, these epidemiological findings have interested scholars, mostly because Latinos, on average, have lower socioeconomic status than whites. This is typically associated with higher death rates and worse health outcomes.
Good health at the start of migration, lower rates of smoking and strong social networks are some of the reasons researchers believe Latinos have an edge over their white counterparts in the United States.
But current health trends suggest the gap between U.S. Latinos and whites may soon be shrinking, according to Princeton University research, which points to higher obesity rates, higher incidence of diabetes, and significant disability issues as potential downfalls for Latinos. While Latinos still smoke less than whites in the United States, this may not be enough to counteract the other negative health trends.
Study author Noreen Goldman, the Hughes-Rogers Professor of Demography and Public Affairs, recently answered questions about her research. Her findings were published in Research on Aging, an academic journal. Read More
Brazil's Senate voted last week to impeach President Dilma Rousseff, a move that suspends the president for 180 days. Rousseff, who is accused of using public bank money to cover budget gaps, now faces an impeachment trial. The suspended president is calling the situation a "coup d'etat" and maintains she didn't act criminally regarding budgetary affairs.
The impeachment raises significant questions for Brazil's economic and political future. John Londregan, professor of politics and international affairs, answered questions about these issues and how they will affect Brazil going forward.
Londregan, a faculty associate at the Center for the Study of Democratic Politics, is a specialist in the development and application of statistical methods in political science. He also studies politics in South America, with a particular focus on Chilean legislative and electoral politics. Read more
Dennisse Calle found the topic for her senior thesis along a Havana street, in the back of a stall that sells pirated movies and music.
Cubans pay the equivalent of a few dollars, insert a flash drive into the computer at the back of the stall, and get access to El Paquete — a weekly, one terabyte compilation of popular TV shows, movies, music, computer and phone apps, and advertisements that serves as an offline Netflix, YouTube, Craigslist and more in a country where Internet access is slow and expensive.

Rachel Price, an associate professor of Spanish and Portuguese who is also affiliated with the Program in Media and Modernity, joined Princeton in 2009. Her scholarship focuses on Latin American, Caribbean and particularly Cuban literature and culture; media; poetics; empire; and ecocriticism. Her essays have explored a range of topics including digital media, slavery, poetics and visual art. This semester she is teaching an undergraduate course, "El Género Negro: Crime Fiction," in Spanish, and a graduate course, "Narrative Prose in Latin America — Finance and Form."
In her new book, "Planet/Cuba" (2015, Verso Books), Price addresses contemporary literature as well as conceptual, digital and visual art from Cuba that engages questions of environmental crisis, new media and new forms of labor and leisure. Read more
Some things are universal: The first day of class is awkward, particularly at a new school, and it pays to break the ice. As Johannes Hallermeier '16 discovered, this is no less true in Cuba than it is anywhere else.
Hallermeier was sitting with a handful of Princeton students and a dozen Cubans in a class on the history of Latin American thought at the University of Havana last February, as part of a revised and expanded study-abroad program. While they waited for the professor, the students kept to themselves — shuffling papers, playing with pens, staring silently at their wooden desks. As a rule, Hallermeier would learn, Cubans are friendly and outgoing people, but today, probably because of first-day nervousness, everyone avoided eye contact. It did not bode well for an engaging semester.
Job Title: Visiting Research Scholar — Requisition Number: 1500588
Deadline: October 15, 2015, 11:59 p.m. EST

Let me explain this illustration, after the jump ...
Crazy week, including my rumination on "Lost" (link below), a rant about Disney's handling of the "Hannah Montana" concert movie (in tomorrow's Beacon Journal, link to come), the day-to-day stuff and a great beast of a project for Sunday that I finally managed to slay today. At least, I hope I did. More about that later. (Update: Maybe even later than I thought. The beast is now tentatively schediled for Monday's paper.) And I have to go diving into some DVDs tonight for my weekly column.
But among the things that are getting me through is the FABULOUS Aretha Franklin CD, "Rare & Unreleased Recordings From the Golden Reign of the Queen of Soul," which I belatedly came across last night.
While I have cooled on some of her most recent recordings, for the most part I genuflect before Aretha and have done so since the '60s. And while this CD -- including demos, alternate takes and session leftovers -- is not a nonstop joy, it is often splendid, especially as a reminder of the days when it appeared that there was no song that Aretha could not make her own. As Dusty Springfield would ruefully admit, after Aretha covered "Son of a Preacher Man," Dusty started replacing some of her own phrasing with Aretha's.
Put it another way: I hate "My Way." I consider the song irredeemable. But here we have Aretha tackling it, and doggone if she didn't turn it into a fine little bit of herself. ("I've traveled, Lord only knows, how many many many many highways.") Almost as remarkable is the bluesy thing she makes of "My Cup Runneth Over." Yes, the Ed Ames song from 1967. My goodness.
All right, you may not rejoice over her treatment of Leonard Cohen's "Suzanne" (even if it has some moments). And "Fool on the Hill," even in her jazzy treatment, seems beneath her gifts. But there are still plenty of joys.

Dear Dr. Vinny,
Do Tokaj wines change when aged in bottles? I was at a Tokaj vineyard in Slovakia recently and was told that because they are allowed to oxidize in barrels they don't. But are all Tokaj wines allowed to oxidize in barrels? And if they are, would a 1999 Tokaj taste the same today as it could have, say, seven years ago?
—Michael C., London
Dear Michael,
The dessert wine Tokaji, or "wine of Tokaj," has a reputation for lasting a long time. (Strictly speaking, the term "Tokaji" refers to wines from Hungary; the similar wines from Slovakia are now called "Tokajský.") You're right that traditionally Tokaji is aged in barrels, and as the wine evaporates, the barrels are not refilled (or "topped off" in wine-speak), letting them oxidize and develop those wonderful nutty flavors. These days, winemakers are more likely to top off and control oxidation, but between the trace oxidation and high sugar content, these wines age very slowly.
Still, after 20 or so years, I expect you'd notice a bottle of Tokaji taking on more mature notes—perhaps the orange peel notes turn to marmalade or the color gets darker. As with all wines, storing your Tokaji in optimal conditions is best.
—Dr. Vinny

First, a disclaimer: I love my job. Other than professional cupcake taster or someone who gets paid to sit on a beach somewhere, I wouldn't want to do anything else.
I love listening to people's stories and then retelling them in print. I love crafting sentences, slipping in a fun or surprising word or phrase, purposefully breaking the rules of grammar.
OK, disclaimer's over. Now let me tell you about stress.
When I told Sharon Skeele-Hogan, Inverness special event director, about this "stressful jobs" project I was working on, she asked, "Who's going to write about you?"
So here goes. Here's my take on the stress of being a newspaper reporter.
The newspaper comes out every single day, which is a good thing. But it comes out Every. Single. Day. That means we have to have stories and photos to fill the pages. Daily.
I call it "feeding the beast." The editor (who is not at all beastly; he's actually a very nice guy) comes around daily with his clipboard and asks, "Whatcha got for tomorrow's paper?"
Sometimes I'll look at him and lament, "But I had five stories in today's paper!"
He'll smile and say, "I know. Whatcha got for tomorrow?"
Once upon a time, we had 10 or so reporters and three photographers on beast-feeding duty, but now we're down to six reporters and one full-time photographer. The beast has also gotten smaller, but it still needs to be fed. Every. Day.
On any given day we come in to work with our day all planned, with a general idea of what story or stories we're working on, who we need to call or go see and what type of photos we need.
But the plan rarely goes as planned. The person we need to talk to by noon for a story due at 3 p.m. decides to go out of town for the day and shuts his or her phone off. Or the outdoor event we're covering for the next day's front page gets rained out.
As the beast roars to be fed, we scramble for a Plan B to feed it.
Other stressors:
We are human and make mistakes. We put the wrong name with a photo, like I did a few months ago (sorry, Tom Chancey). We offend people without meaning to. People call and yell at us because their paper's wet.
If we write about widget shops in Citrus County and do our best to include all seven that are listed in the phone book, once the story comes out, widget shop number eight — with an unlisted number — will call and yell because we didn't include them.
A lot of people think we know everything that's going on. A lot of people think we don't know anything. All people think we should know everything.
People call to tattle on their neighbors and want us to write about it. People who are in serious pain, emotional or physical or financial, call, wanting us somehow to make their pain go away. People call trying to scam the community, telling us their story, which turns out to not be true. So, we start disbelieving everyone.
Some people don't understand the community nature of who we are as a paper, and make fun of us because we focus on local issues and events. They think we're rinky dink amateurs. They call our paper the Citrus County Comical and the Mullet Wrapper.
More stressors:
I write a weekly religion column, which is a topic fraught with opportunity to offend. Some people don't understand hyperbole or humor and take offense or misunderstand me. Others want to debate theology with me, and I simply don't have the time for extended debates. I will answer a person three times and no more; otherwise, my head explodes.
Another stressor is not being able to cover every event, especially when there are several on the same day at the same time. We sincerely hate to disappoint people, but we do. A lot.
I could go on and on, but frankly, that would only stress me out even more and probably bore you.
So, what do we newspaper reporters do about our stress? I can't speak for my co-workers, but I try to come to work as early as I can. My day officially starts at 8 a.m., but I like to get to my desk as close to 7 a.m. as possible so I can breathe, read the paper, drink my decaf, all before the craziness starts. I'm a natural early bird, so that fits me just fine.
Because I come in early, I don't feel guilty about leaving early, which gives me time to hit the gym on my way home. Plus, I get at least eight hours of sleep at night, and I sleep soundly.
About 23 years ago, when we first moved to Citrus County, our kids were older and my husband told me it was time I got a "real" job. (Prior to that, I had done freelance magazine writing.)
But I didn't want a "real" job — I wanted to write.
Although writing is a real job, I don't consider what I do a job. Despite all its stresses, for me this is still less of a job than a calling. It's something I feel I was born to do, and I wouldn't want to do anything else.
Except maybe sit on a beach eating cupcakes.

Web API Design - Crafting Interfaces that Developers Love
Crafting Interfaces that Developers Love
Brian Mulloy
This book is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device, and with iTunes on your computer. Books can be read with iBooks on your Mac or iOS device.
This e-book is a collection of design practices that we have developed in collaboration with some of the leading API teams around the world, as they craft their API strategy through a design workshop that we provide at Apigee. One of the sources for our design thinking is REST. Because REST is an architectural style and not a strict standard, it allows for a lot of flexibly. Because of that flexibility and freedom of structure, there is also a big appetite for design best practices.
We call our point of view in API design ?pragmatic REST?, because it places the success of the developer over and above any other design principle. The developer is the customer for the Web API. The success of an API design is measured by how quickly developers can get up to speed and start enjoying success using your API.

Why is that? Running it with "3" (as the tutorial does) does actually work, but renders only one triangle (the first three vertices). I do aim to render six vertices making up two triangles forming a square.
//Edit: having VertexAttribPointer at 3 and DrawArrays at 6 seems to work and makes sense now. I did not see the functions context and that it does not refer to the vertex count of the entire buffer but to the format thereof.

It's hard to believe that my last baby is almost a year old. Grayson, in just 3 short weeks, will be 1 year old. It's shocking right? It's feels like yesterday we were ever-so-slowly counting down the days until his birth while I sat for weeks on bed rest. Now, his first year has come and gone and I so much want to freeze time right now. On the other hand, I am truly looking forward to seeing how he becomes my little man. I can't wait to see him take his first steps. I can't wait to say good-bye to formula. I am very excited to celebrate at his first birthday party (which I am currently planning)! It's all so exciting, but at the same time I'm a little sad we won't have an infant much longer. I feel like he will be starting pre-school before I know it, so I am cherishing every moment with baby Gray.
A few weeks ago I was able to meet up with the most amazing photographer around town, Kim Flores. (If you are every around the Baltimore/ Washington DC area, book her. You won't regret it.) She is a one-of-a-kind gem and I am so lucky to have her in my life so she can capture all of our special milestones. We can thank Kim for Grayson's amazing newborn and three-month-old photo shoot, which were just so much fun. Every time I get together with Kim to take photos, when I get them back my face just drops as I look through them. I love watching our little photo shoots come to life and it's so fun styling Grayson too!
Click through 14 of my favorite photos from our photo shoot!
Photo Shoot Ideas 1 of 15
Click through 14 of my favorite photos from Grayson's latest photo shoot and gain inspiration for your next photo session.
The Perfect Backdrop 2 of 15
I love taking photos outside and of this set of photos on a simple backdrop, the great outdoors is one of my favorites. I choose to put him in blue hues to bring out those baby blue eyes even more.
Buy Grayson's shirt from The Printed Palette. Hat is from Target and skinny jeans are BabyGap.
Captain Adorable 3 of 15
His Printed Palette tee says it all captain adorable! I think we can all agree with that.
Those Eyes! 4 of 15
I have a feeling my little guy is going to be breaking hearts with those big blue eyes. Every where we go he constantly gets stopped for "those big eyes" and they truly shine in this precious photo.
Surfer Boy 5 of 15
I love California and the beach; I would move in an instant to Malibu if my husband would just let us. Sigh. So when I spotted this graphic tee that reads "Born to Be a Surfer Boy" I just had to snatch it up at Zara. I'm so happy it finally fit! When preparing for a photo shoot, I find it fun to grab a few graphic tees that really show off your little one's personality.
My Little Man 6 of 15
Mixing a plaid print with a striped bow-tie is one of my favorite looks. It would be perfect for the upcoming holiday season too! Don't be scared to mix-and-match patterns for a modern look. I love this Little Mr. bow tie; I think they are the best! Why? Because they snap right on that top shirt button. It's so easy—no more fighting to get that bow-tie on baby.
Buy a bow-tie from Little Mr.
Hello, Mr. Trendy 7 of 15
Just a few of my favorite items and brands from Grayson's first year are paired up for this fabulous trio of an outfit.
Buy the hat from Salt City Emporium for $16, Buy the leggings from Carly Megan Shop for $38, Buy the Man Cub tank from Loved By Hannah and Eli for $25
Okay Mom, I'm Done 8 of 15
As baby grows, the photo shoots get harder! Right after Kim snapped this, you can bet Grayson was speeding away. It was harder to snap photos of him this time than his last shoot, but Kim does such an amazing job!
Happy Guy 9 of 15
A great tip that even works at home: put out a pouf so baby can hold on to something while you capture that smile. It works as a great photo prop too!
Swoon-Worthy 10 of 15
I mean, could this be any cuter? I couldn't wait to try out this adorable wooden airplane prop Kim bought. I paired it with a simple green sweater so it wouldn't take away from the overall photo. I just LOVE it.
Such a Ham 11 of 15
"Ha, you ladies think I am just going to stand here? Think again."
Another photo we struggled to snap because Grayson was too busy flirting with the lens and wanted to just crawl to us. He was such a ham and I think he thought it was a big joke watching us run back and forth, chasing him and propping him up again. It was so much fun though! And well worth it.
I'm Standing! 12 of 15
I just had to capture this oh-so-modern outfit for a little boy. See? Boys do have cute clothes! I am obsessed with this super-soft tank and mint skinnies. Clearly, Grayson is pretty happy with his outfit too!
Buy the tank from Little Boogaweezin for $19, Buy the skinnies (skinny leggings) from Carly Megan Shop for $38
Over the Top Fashion Statement 13 of 15
Once again, I paired all of my favorite trendy baby items together for one uber-trendy shot of Mr. Gray because well, these items define his wardrobe.
Buy the hat from Salt City Emporium for $16, Buy the leggings from Carly Megan Shop for $38, Buy the Man Cub tank from Loved By Hannah and Eli for $25, Buy the bandana bib from Duchess and Lion Clothing Co for $16, Buy the mocs from Freshly Picked for $60
Favorite Blanket 14 of 15
We captured a photo of Grayson's favorite blanket. It's just so cute that we had to make sure we had a photo for the baby book, and to share how sweet the words are across the blanket.
Buy it from Carly Megan Shop for $44
This Boy… 15 of 15
He just melts my heart! I still can't believe he is going to be one year old. Time flies when you're having fun! Grayson Henry Charles, we love you.

We booked this apartement shortly before our trip, it was a comfortable apartement for up to five people. We had our own kitchen and 2 people shared each bedroom. The best thing was that our dish washing was done by the housekeeping - great for people without the time! Also the service was really helpful with organizing the taxi back to the airport, telling us about must-go places and even had first-aid kits available for injuries!
Additionally the location is perfect. 5 minutes walk to the beach, public transport in front of the house and many restaurants and bars around!

Girlie week in Jerusalem
Joanne.venet stayed here on Jun 3, 2016 during their trip titled: Lazarus Travels Great Adventures .
Independence, the Knesset, and the Theater!
... and of course enjoyed being in the Knesset itself! We then came back to Tel Aviv for a quick rest before we headed to dinner at the Nalaga'at Center, located at the Jaffa port in Tel Aviv. We at at Cafe Kapish which is run all by a deaf wat staff. We then saw "Not By Bread Alone," a magical theatrical journey into the inner world of eleven deaf-blind actors.
We eat Book Worm shakshouka
... France rather than in war-torn Israel.
More wandering led, magically, to another coffee shop on our list, the Dalal Bakery where we had delicious pastries and cappuccino. Then we strolled further through southern Tel Aviv in the late afternoon sunshine, did a hairpin back to the Gilgal to get our bearings and, guess what? It was time for dinner! We returned to the venerable Bograshov Street of falafel shop and Le Moulin ...

Comprehensive DescriptionRead full entry
Description of Cristigera phoenix(PENARD,1922). Cell outline is ovoid to elongate with a broadly rounded posterior and transversely truncate anterior end. The pellicle is relatively inflexible. This species has a distinct longitudinal cleft along its entire length on the ventral surface. The cytostome lies in the anterior 1/4 of this cleft. Somatic kineties are bipolar. There is a paraoral membrane along the right edge of the cytostome. This membrane curves around the posterior end of the cytostome to form a pouch-like structure. The adoral polykinetids are located along the right wall of the cytostome.The single long caudal cilium arises slightly eccentrically near a small tooth-like projection from the right margin of the ventral cleft. There is an unciliated slightly flattened anterior apical area, the "frontal plate". The single spherical macronucleus is centrally located. The contractile vacuole is located posteriorly on the right side. Found in sapropelic habitats.

The main theme for Star Trek: Voyager was composed and conducted by Jerry Goldsmith. It won the Emmy for best main title in 1995
There is no mention of the orchestra or soloists used. I imagine if you knew someone who worked at Paramount Picture 15 years ago you might be able to track it down

I think is was one of them OCOMPA !!!
or could be as simple as the Crystaline Entity !!
Thanks, the brass work is remarkable. So often we talk about orchestral musicians, but do not give the studio musicians their due. I, for one, would be really interested in hearing more about how studio work get done and who does it.
For example, what is the current thought regarding what type of trumpet (make, key, bore size), is best used? Who is on who's crew and what does the second trumpet due to aid the first in the studio?
You think Voyager's themes song was something, check out Deep Space Nine's intro for season's 1-3, some awesome solo and duet work! Wasn't too much of a fan of the intro for season's 4-7.

ESPN has a nice feature that shows which players are being added and dropped in all their leagues. Here is a look at the top pitchers and hitters being added and dropped.
Kyle Blanks (57.5% owned, +15.5% increase) – Kyle is just getting noticed in fantasy and is a great reserve OF in small leagues or decent starter in NL-only and larger leagues. He should hit 20+ home runs with around a 0.270 average.
Colby Rasmus (66.5, +14.9%) – Great upside and people seem to be picking him up. Colby also has the chance to hit 20+ home runs also.
Miguel Tejada (73.8%, +14.6%) – Though I don't like him as a starter, there is no reason for him not to be on a bench, especially with the 3B qualification coming soon.
Alex Gordon (31.2%, -40.6%) – Alex's trip to the DL has caused a huge sell off. Buy low here. He should be back within the month, so if you have some DL spots available, stash him there.
Corey Hart (71.1%, -12.0%) – Corey value is down because he now seems to be platooning with Jim Edmonds. Corey looks to be starting against LHP only.
Chris Young (42.0%, -6.3%) – Not sure why the sell off. Maybe there are just better and more consistent options available.
Matt Lindstrom (59.9%, +40.5%) – Get the closer nod of Lyons has pushed him up quickly
Francisco Liriano (96.4%, +26.9%) – Looks like Francisco should no longer be available in any league. He is not close to a sure thing, but a chance should be taken on him. Other high risk, high reward pitchers are Ben Sheets, Fausto Carmona and Ervin Santana.
Jon Rauch (87.0%, +20.6%) – Owners sucking up Joe Nathan's replacement.
Brandon Lyon (37.9%, -53.2%) – Lindstrom is not a lights out closer yet. Lyon will put up decent rate stats and has a good chance to take over Houston's closer role. Buy low.
Wade Davis (64.0%, -30.9%) – The drop may be from being the 5th starter and not having as many starts. Pitchers will get injured and he will get his share of starts. Buy low again.
Joba Chamberlain (33%, -12.9%) – Joba should be picked up immediately if available. Can fill in a SP slot when starter not going and provide some good rates stats. Yes, buy low again.

This review is from: PC PCI-Expres PCI-E 1X Riser Card Extender Extension Ribbon Flex Relocate Cable
Pros: Used this to utilize the last PCI express 1x slot hidden underneath my Video-card. I use this cable and a USB 3.0 card to add some USB 3.0 ports.
Cons: none
Other Thoughts: This cable is shipped from China and it is a slow delivery, but I new that was clearly stated for this item, so I knew to expect it.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: CM Storm SF-17 - Gaming Laptop Cooling Stand with 180 mm Fan and 4 Ergonomic Height Settings
Pros: New-Egg replaced the defective unit.
The working laptop cooler is good. The fan is silent and moves a decent amount of air.
The cooler comes with a USB to mini USB cable. This cable needs to be a few inches longer for those people who have USB ports on the left side on their laptops, but it works.
Cons: This was the first item I returned to new-egg. I followed the return instruction from new-egg to get the Defective unit replaced. I had to pay for return shipping. What is up with that? So I eventually payed more the item I wanted.
Other Thoughts: The USB hub is ok, thought I wish it were a USB 3.0 HUB with an external power cable included.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: CM Storm SF-17 - Gaming Laptop Cooling Stand with 180 mm Fan and 4 Ergonomic Height Settings
Pros: Looks good has a 4 port USB hub.
Cons: The fan does not work!
I plugged the USB hub into my laptop, and connected external power.
The font RED lights turn on but the fan does not run.
Rotated the Fan speed from OFF to HI with no change in fan speed. The fan does not spin!
After further inspection it appears the fan is not installed properly or is broken. The fins of the fan are touching the top meal mesh, causing enough friction to stop the fan from rotating.
The box the cooling pad came in is pristine condition and does not appear to have been dropped or damaged.
Since there appears to be no damage in shipping, I believe that the Quality of this item may not be as good as I thought it was.
Now I have to decide if i want to RMA, or return it to Newegg.

Research shows that having "textbook" blood pressure readings no longer keeps you out of the danger zone. Here's why.
High blood pressure can lead to poor heart, kidney, and eye health and increase your chances of having a stroke. Plus, the latest research shows that even mildly elevated blood pressure puts you in the stroke risk category.
The American Heart Association, which sets the standard on blood pressure, has revised their blood pressure categories. Even I was shocked when they determined that 120/80 mmHg is no longer considered to be in "normal" range. You see, when I started out in cardiology decades ago 120/80 mmHg was the gold standard. It was the "textbook" blood pressure we all wanted to strive to achieve. It was considered the "mean" point of the normal range, which was then 100-140/70-90 mmHg.
We used the term "borderline hypertension" when the numbers started creeping up into the highest point of the normal range. So, I realize that it may be big news to many of you that there are now five blood pressure categories, and the concern starts at lower levels than before. Specifically, let's look at the latest investigation on pre-hypertension.
Research Shows Pre-Hypertension Is Riskier Than Any of Us Imagined
Researchers at Southern Medical University in China examined results from 19 previous research studies on stroke risk and hypertension. What they found is that those with even slightly high blood pressure (120/80 mmHg) were at a 66% greater risk of having a stroke compared to those in the normal blood pressure range.
This was true regardless of other stroke risk factors, such as smoking and diabetes. What's also important is the higher the blood pressure, the higher the stroke risk. Those individuals at the high end of pre-hypertensive—meaning they had a blood pressure over 130/85 mmHg—had a 95% higher stroke risk than those with normal blood pressure.
Get more of Dr. Sinatra's advice on Healthy Blood Pressure
While an earlier study found there to be no increased stroke risk in the low pre-hypertension range, these researchers cast a wider net to reduce confounding factors, and analyzed many earlier findings. Their conclusions now enforce their recommendation that those with even mild pre-hypertension make lifestyle changes for better health—which is something I covered extensively in my webinar. I agree that it's always better to err on the side of caution and prevention.
So, the takeaway message for all of us is that we do need to watch our blood pressure levels carefully, and start taking stroke prevention measures early. To me, this is even more important if you have other stroke risk factors like a family history and atrial fibrillation, even if the statistics based on this one meta-analysis reports pre-hypertension as an independent risk factor at this time. It only makes good sense.
What About High Blood Pressure and Salt Intake?
Before I give you my bullet list of action points on stroke prevention, I'd like to discuss salt. Salt restriction has been a mainstay recommendation for anyone with high blood pressure for decades. Salt is sodium chloride, and both sodium and chloride are key electrolytes in the body. But a few recent studies suggest that there may be a sweet spot for salt intake, and it often takes juggling by both the patient and physician to get it right. As with most things, no one size fits all.
While I agree that most folks should limit sodium intake to less than 2,000 mg a day, that's not the case if you have heart failure. Salt does promote water retention, which can lead to high blood pressure. But if you are have congestive heart failure along with your hypertension, I'm a little more relaxed with salt because lower sodium levels may have the potential to cause harm.
Excessive salt restriction can precipitate dangerously high renin levels. Renin is a hormone secreted by the kidney that's involved in the renin-angiotensin hormonal system that regulates water and blood pressure balance. High levels cause the renal arteries to tighten up and constrict, resisting blood flow and elevating blood pressure.
Salt is also a volume expander, so we need enough to get better blood flow through the kidneys. We are still learning the health consequences of long term salt restriction, so if you have heart failure work with your doctor to monitor your lab results and your blood pressure to maintain healthy renal function.
What Should You Do If Your Blood Pressure Is Creeping Up?
- Watch your salt intake. Reduce it to about 2.8 grams daily if you're generally healthy. If you have heart failure, get 2,500 mg a day to maintain sodium levels under your doctor's supervision.
- Increase your potassium intake. Potassium helps to bring blood pressure down by relaxing the arterial walls. Plus, it helps to prevent strokes and heart attacks.
- Exercise. Studies show that moderate exercise—such as walking, dancing, or golf—can reduce blood pressure levels significantly.
- Eat garlic. Garlic acts as a natural ACE inhibitor, helping to lower high blood pressure. Strive for a clove a day.

"Boy Pussy" Rapper Doesn't Hold Back In This Hilarious And Very Explicit Interview
Gay rapper Fly Young Red, whose song "Boy Pussy" has made him a viral sensation and possible newest member of the Young Money crew had an impromptu call-in interview with Da Doo Dirty Show, a long-running internet radio show hosted by out personality DJ Baker, and the results are more than a little dirty and a lot of fun.
Be warned: this NSFW interview is not for the faint of heart.
N-bombs and ass-talk abound as DJ Baker and Fly Young Red talk about his upcoming performance at Blatino Oasis, the shade coming his way from other gay rappers, and his search for the perfect piece of…well, you know.
Ok, can't do it. The buzzer. I hope Fly Young Red didn't say anything important because I can't get past the blaring buzzers that this jackass keeps pressing right in the middle of sentences.
Check your damn audio levels DJ Baker. You're sound board is WAY too loud.
If you aren't used to this style of deejay interviewing with the sound effects than yes I'm sure you must have been very annoyed by it. It isn't the first time I've heard this style though so it didn't bother me as much. Interesting interview and I will be at Blatino Oasis (the only west coast gay pride event I pay any attention to) this year with some of my friends so his performance should be quite interesting.
