Katie Lister, Surrey Family Photographer
"Capturing childhood at its very best"
Hi, I'm Katie, and I create emotive and stunning family photographs for you to treasure forever.
My families take home memorable photographs, crafted with love and care, which convey emotional connection and genuine happiness. I work hard on my photography sessions so that you don't have to.
I am a Surrey family photographer, based in Walton on Thames, and travel to your home or many stunning locations across Surrey and South West London. I also have access to beautiful private Surrey woodland for your photography session.
If this is what you're after, I'd love to chat.
Covid-19 Update
I am currently booking families for outdoor family photography sessions with full social distancing. What does this look like? You can read more in my dedicated blog post. I currently have limited availability in June and July, and just a couple of places remaining for my lavender fields mini sessions. Please get in touch to enquire for your family!
Beautiful outdoor photography
Social distancing comes as standard with my outdoor photo shoots. I offer my clients exclusive private access to stunning woodland locations, annual visits to the impressive Surrey lavender fields, and a choice of handpicked locations to suit the season and your family. Outdoor family photography has never looked so beautiful!
Relaxing in-home photography
Indoor photography is currently on pause due to Covid-19, but if I can safely access your garden and maintain a safe distance, then please let me visit your family to photograph you whilst you are relaxed and happy in your own environment. This is perfect when you have a newborn or young baby, and want to have everything familiar and comfortable around you.
Lavender Fields July 2020
Please join me for my very popular mini family photography sessions in the Lavender Fields in Surrey.
On 11th and 13th July 2020 I will photograph a select number of families in the stunning lavender fields – capturing stunning portraits of your children at play and your connection as a family, all in one of Surrey's premier photography locations.
Natural Nursery Photography
Each year I take my natural approach to photography to a select couple of nurseries and playgroups in Surrey, to capture natural nursery photographs. I photograph children outdoors and at play, to capture authentic smiles and natural photographs which parents love to buy.
School Photographs
My 'Back to School' mini photography sessions will capture natural and happy photographs of your child in their uniform! My school photographs are taken outdoors, where kids feel relaxed and free – not the usual 'school photo' formula of studio lights and a backdrop which can be intimidating for some children.
I can photograph your family in beautiful outdoor locations across Surrey and South-West London, or visit your home for a relaxed and personal photo shoot.
I am happy to travel approximately 45 minutes drive of Walton-on-Thames. This covers areas such as Weybridge, Esher, Walton on Thames, Hersham, Cobham, Chertsey, Claygate, Oxshott, Byfleet, Guildford, Hampton, Teddington, Kingston, Richmond, Twickenham, Wandsworth, New Malden, Surbiton, Earlsfield - plus anywhere else the the general vicinity.
I specialise in newborn baby photography, childrens photography, teen photography, maternity photography and family photography. If you are further away, we can likely still work together, so please get in touch.
"Katie brought warmth, humour and fun to our recent family photo shoot and we are thrilled with the quality of the pictures."
Caroline - Wimbledon Family
"Katie generated a brilliant and immediate rapport with our children."
Adelene - Cobham Family
"We love the beautiful, natural newborn photography that Katie captured."
Helen - Weybridge Family
"I struggle to get photos of my two boys but Katie captured their personalities - I know I will treasure these images of our Surrey photoshoot"
Rebecca - Walton-on-Thames Family

Edited 10/31/2013
Medicine is a practice. Scleroderma, Sarcoidosis and many diseases are not well know by many doctors. It's important to find a doctor with experience with a chronic illness like scleroderma. If you have a doctor in your area, wiling to consult or allow care management by a doctor who has experience, you have hit pay dirt- but that's a whole other post.
So we have doctors working with us, as well as those who love us who aren't doctors and couldn't pass an audition to play one on TV. It doesn't matter, chronic illness or not, we get a lot of unsolicited advice and some of it is just hilarious.
When I was pregnant, I had heartburn. According to my Aunt Enes, I was getting heartburn because my baby had hair. It couldn't be the baby kicked my stomach around like a flat, acid filled soccer ball. No. My baby had hair. Which I guess is rare for mammals?
Okay, bad example because she gave no advice, just her opinion, but it's always a great story. She tells me what she believes, because she cares. Don't we all have people who tell us things because they care. Yes, we do. Even you, J.D. Salengers -if you lock yourself away, your inner voices will get to you, eventually.
Here is a great example of some bad advice I received in the90's.
"You know Karen, you should try cayenne. It's great for circulation".
Yes, it sure is. Not only is it great for circulation, it's a great way to exacerbate reflux, a common related condition to scleroderma. Oh yeah. Good times. Forest Gump once said to Jenny, "Sometimes, there just aren't enough Tums." He was right about that. Yep.
Out of all the advice and recommendations we receive, no advice should be listened to and tried more than the advice of our own doctors. Sure, we all run into quacks, but we shouldn't be discouraged. Most doctors got into it because they wanted to help people. Some loose their way, but many truly want to do their best.
Listen to fellow patients, talk with friends about your treatment if you are about to try something new. Go over the risks and benefits. ALL medications and treatments have side effects. You will never know how they will effect you, if you don't try them. But before you do try a new treatment, do your homework. Seek out fellow patients and learn from their experience. Know what you are about to put into your body. A chronic illness has a great way of making people feel helpless, but we are never helpless. We may not get the outcome we want, but we may get the outcome that works, even if it takes a few adjustments.
So, if you skipped to the end:
We all get lots of unsolicited advice. Of all the advice we get, the source we should listen closest to is our doctors and medical practitioners.
Yes, we have to try many things before we find what's works and you'll ask, "What am I, a guinea pig?!
Don't despair. Here is Randy, in "Honebadger Narrates The Guinea Pig" – Oh how precious!

Canterbury, Kent, Great Britain
Member since2008
The member has not specified any exchange dates
House in Canterbury, Great Britain
Our house is large and comfortable on a quiet road 10 minutes walk from the centre of Canterbury. London is 55 minutes away on a high speed train. The sea is 20 minutes drive away. When our children were small, we had 3 wonderful (pre-internet!) exchanges - to Italy in 1993 and 1994 and Paris in 1997, More recently we have had fantastic exchanges to Bruges (2008), Berlin (2011), Rome (2013), Paris (2014 and 2015), Marseille (2015), Rome again (2017) and Denmark (2017).
Our house is Edwardian and semi-detached. It has 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. All the rooms are large. The south facing back garden, 115 ft long by 28 ft wide, is very private, backing onto a not very busy railway line in a cutting. There are lots of mature trees, a lawn and a private patio with two tables and lots of garden benches. Our shed is quite decorative and is covered by a giant wisteria which also runs along the back of the house. We have solar panels on our roof.

Canterbury is a pleasant small city with the cathedral at its heart with its wonderful stained glass, cloisters, crypt and chapter house. There is also St Augustine's Abbey and boat trips on the river. We are close to the sea - and one photo shows the sunset at Whitstable, and anothe shows the old ruined church by the sea at Reculver.
The countryside round Canterbury is beautiful with many excellent walks. Dover with its White Cliffs and castle is very close and so is France. London is 55 minutes away by train.

This weekend Edge Watersports hosted the annual British Kite Racing Championships in Exmouth. There was tight racing in the top three between Olly Bridge, Guy Bridge and Connor Bainbridge. After recent performances in races around the World Guy and Connor were looking more likely than ever to knock Olly off the top spot. Experience and tactics paid off for Olly and after a 3rd and 2nd in the first two races, he managed to win the remaining 4 to take the top spot.

The latest contest is from Darth Hater DB, which is offering a cache of Logitech gaming keyboards, wireless and wired mice, as well as wireless headsets. To enter, you can submit helpful comments, screenshots, and videos relevant to their SWTOR categories, just like Torhead's previous contest. The difference here is that quantity does matter. The people who submit the most approved entries of each type will be guaranteed a prize, along with a few random participants also winning a prize. Deadline to enter is the end of the day (PST) on January 4, 2012.

Dozens of people�hovered over plans for the last two sections of the U.S. 74 Shelby Bypass Thursday evening.
The large maps on display at Elizabeth Baptist Church showed proposed road changes coming to the area with sections D and E of the bypass, stretching from West of N.C. 150 to Stony Point Road at U.S. 74 Business.
The public meeting gave�residents and business owners a chance to ask questions and givet feedback directly to the North Carolina Department of Transportation. The response was mixed from the audience.
Tommy Randall, who lives near the path of the bypass on Borders Road, looks forward to the bypass and only wishes it had come sooner.
�It�s a good thing,� he said. �The way growth is coming on, we�ve got to some alleviation of traffic around Shelby. It�s a long time coming.�
But others were less excited about the plans.
Wes Lail owns L & L U Pull It located on Anthony Farm Road, right of existing U.S. 74. The business owner said there were too many uncertainty, and he wished the engineers came out to the area to look at the land and talk to business owners about the changes prior to making plans.
He says the proposed section of the bypass will lead customers to drive out of their way to get to L & L U Pull It, which currently has an entrance right off U.S. 74.
�We�re afraid it�s going to hurt our business,� Lail said. �That�s what we live off of, our business.�
NCDOT Project Development Engineer Michael Poe said the plans have been�altered since the last locally-held meeting. The latest version included changes to surface roads, access to the bypass and a significant change to an intersection at Bethlehem Road that they wanted to show people.
The meeting was aimed at showing off those changes and taking in feedback, which will be considered as plans are finalized.
�We�ll review all of the comments we get and take those into consideration when we�re finalizing the plans,� Poe said. �Some of them may result in changes and some of them we may be able to provide more information on.�
The week's meeting is one of several that have been held in different community that will be affected by the road.
NCDOT hopes to have plans for the final two sections finalzed before the end of the year. Right-of-way acquisition is scheduled to start in 2019 with construction starting in 2021.

No! Wrong!
You can't just take a work that has copyright protection and make a Christmas greeting out of it for your business. When it is done by a business that is in a business that services and depends on copyright creators, it is really wrong.
I received this as a holiday e-mail greeting yesterday. It is from a photography rental studio, one that services professional photographers. Obviously they do not own the copyright and I suspect they did not license the copyright to this image for the use. I did send them an inquiry asking about that but they did not reply.
My guess is that they used it without so much as a passing thought. Often the case when you have newer people in your business who just think anything online is "fair game" for use. I use that term because it has been repeated to me. Usually my explanation to them about my copyrights and my defending my work in Federal Court ends that.
Anyway people who are in the business of copyright creation must lead by example. Do not use other peoples work, images, art, music or whatever just because it is online. It is not yours to do so.
By the way, my using this example in this post falls under a "Fair Use" exclusion in copyright law.
One more of my pet peeves is photography industry magazines that use really bad photographs in their magazines. Posts about that another time.

"We may only see an
individual or family once or twice, but with a First Link® referral
we know they will be provided with efficient, ongoing support,"
of the most important building blocks necessary
to creating a truly dementia-friendly province –
where people living with dementia, their
caregivers and their families are welcomed,
acknowledge and supported – is ensuring that
people have access to the support and education
that they need, when they need it. The Alzheimer
Society of B.C. connects with British Columbians
affected by dementia through First Link®
dementia support.
While individuals and families in Chilliwack can
visit their nearest Regional Resource Centre or
call the First Link® Dementia Helpline
(1-800-936-6033) at any point in the dementia
journey, one of the most important ways they can
connect to First Link® dementia support is
through a referral from a health-care provider.
"Because of the stress and stigma associated
with a diagnosis of dementia, it can take
families time to adjust to their new situation.
On average, families may wait up to 11 months
before they connect to First Link® for help,"
says Cyndi McLeod, Support and Education
Coordinator at the Society's Fraser Region
Resource Centre. "A referral at the time of
diagnosis ensures that families are being
supported during time that can be critical for
advanced planning and developing support
a health-care provider refers someone to First
Link®, the Alzheimer Society of B.C. will reach
out to them to ensure that they have the option
to receive services that will assist in
maintaining their quality of life as much as
possible as the disease progresses. While a
referral at the time of diagnosis is ideal,
people can be referred to First Link® at any
point in the dementia journey.
Petra Pardy, Executive Director for the Health
Services Areas of Chilliwack, Agassiz & Hope, is
an avid champion of First Link® and the services
offered through it. "We may only see an
individual or family once or twice, but with a
First Link® referral we know they will be
provided with efficient, ongoing support," Leila
People may be referred by many different kinds
of health-care providers, whether a general
practitioner, an assessment clinic or a home and
community care case manager. "The Alzheimer
Society of B.C. values all our health-care
partners working to build a community of care
with us," says Dorothy.
residents who are concerned about dementia can
call the First Link® Dementia Helpline
(1-800-936-6033) or visit alzheimerbc.org, and
are encouraged to speak with their health-care
provider about whether or not a referral to
First Link® dementia support would help them.

Career Tips
Applying to Summer Internships
Getting a summer internship is an important way to gain experience and build your resume. It could even lead to a job! A 2011 survey by National Associations of Colleges and Employers reports that the responding companies converted nearly 58 percent of the their interns into full-time hires. So whether you've already been looking for an internship for months or are just getting started, here are some internship tips that will help you.
Make some decisions
Am I able to do an unpaid internship? Unpaid internships can give you great experiences in your field and in the workplace. They can provide you with valuable skills such as time management, teamwork, and professionalism, all of which can be reflected in your resume. However, unpaid internships should not be done with for-profit organizations or companies. Unpaid internships with for-profit companies usually come up against department of labor regulations unless the internship meets very specific criteria, so if you're applying for unpaid internships, they should be with nonprofits, government agencies, or in some cases, start up organizations.
Am I willing to relocate? Internships where you will have to relocate can seem daunting. However, there are many benefits that come along with this opportunity. It is also a chance to explore a new place and make new connections. Check the internship benefits: some places may offer stipends for moving or housing expenses.
Am I willing to intern at a startup company or a company I've never heard of? Interning for startup companies will give you practical hands-on business experience, in addition to experience in the field you are going into. You could even add these newly acquired skills, such as problem solving, to your resume. These companies are often looking for new employees so an internship at a startup could potentially lead to a job hire. You may not have heard of the company, but many small companies offer phenomenal internship opportunities.
Do your homework – Research the companies you are applying to by looking at their online presence, for example, their webpage, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc. Make sure the company knows why you are interested in this internship position and why you chose their company specifically.
Work on your Resume & Cover Letter – Make sure your resume and cover letter clearly position you as someone who can meet the needs of that specific employer. Also, attention to detail and wording are very important because they help you market yourself to potential employers. Make sure your cover letter compliments your resume. You can find an example of an iSchool Resume template here. You can also find an example of an iSchool Cover Letter template here.
Look at your contacts – Do you know anyone at the company you are applying to? One way to network is to do some research through LinkedIn, which is a great way to find out who you may already have connections to. LinkedIn can also be used as a tool to discover "who's who" at the company. Networking at events or through work and school can also be a great outlet for finding leads on internship openings.
Be Flexible – Companies want to know your availability for the Summer, which means you will have to reconcile your academic and personal calendars with your intended work schedule. This is important because companies want to know that you're flexible. Paid internships or those that will provide housing, are great ways to increase your flexibility.
Utilize iCareers – UW student or Alumni? Employers are posting summer internship opportunities in iCareers all the time. The best part about this database is that employers are specifically recruiting people with your skill sets.

Well this news seems certainly to come out of the blue Warner Bros. and DC have announced they are working on a Supergirl film.
Supergirl is Kara Zor-El the cousin of Superman who also managed to escape the destruction of Krypton. The difference between her and her cousin's origins is that Kara was a teenager when Krypton was destroyed and remembers her life there. Supergirl has previously inspired a cult 80s film starring Helen Slater as well as the Supergirl series about to start its fourth season on the CW after premiering on CBS.
Oren Uziel will be working on the script but there haven't been any producers or cast announced.

Vijayawada, also known as Bezawada, is the third largest city of Andhra Pradesh. It is popular for being the commercial capital of the state. Vijayawada has a rich history and is quite old city with magnificent monuments. Being the business capital of Andhra Pradesh, the city has a massive GDP and was recognized as the 'global city of the future'. Vijayawada is one of the most densely populated cities in the urban population and has a population of 1.65 million people.
Having around 1500 automobile accessory units, Vijayawada is the largest automobile industry hub of India. Vijayawada is witnessing a massive growth in its vehicle population and has 0.9 million vehicles. The four-wheeler market is doubling up in the city as more and more people want to enjoy the comfort of travelling in their own car. Consequently, there are residents always on the lookout for buyers to sell used car in Vijayawada.
As Vijayawada is experiencing a sudden increase in cars, more and more individuals want to own cars to enhance their lifestyle. Due to this quick advancement, the second-hand car market in Vijayawada is growing by giant strides. There are various people looking to sell second hand car in Vijayawada, but they hesitate due to the lack of reliable used car dealers in Vijayawada. Surely there are various car dealers in Vijayawada, but CARS24 stands out from the rest.

Due to its dense human population and increasing vehicles, Vijayawada has a great market of second-hand cars. As Vijayawada is known as the business capital of Andhra Pradesh and also named as the 'global city of the future', the city has a massive vehicle population when compared to its human population. The majority of the population of the city earns enough to travel in a car to their workplace. Moreover, the increase in vehicle population clearly indicates people are opting for personal vehicles more in place of public transport. Cars offer the luxury and comfort which public vehicles cannot, and people seek the same thing which is why they prefer their own vehicles.
As Vijayawada is a commercial hub, it has a great GDP. This means that Vijayawada is comprised mostly of the working class which usually travel in their own cars. However, not everyone can afford brand new cars, but can happily opt for pre owned cars in Vijayawada for their comfort. Conversely, a nice chunk of the population also wishes to sell old car in Vijayawada to keep up with the latest trends. They want to upgrade to a new car with the latest features which is why they are in search of buyers who want 2nd hand car in Vijayawada. These factors make the second-hand car market quite a hit amongst the residents of the city.
There is a vast market for used cars in Vijayawada, however, the whole process of selling cars is quite tiresome and people do not easily find genuine buyers in the used car market of Vijayawada. Keeping this in mind, CARS24 has set up a used car showroom in the city to help people with this procedure so they can go home with the best deal possible. CARS24 believes in helping these people who face various issues when they are on the lookout to sell car in Vijayawada.

In light of recent events, we would like to send our heartfelt sadness and profound solidarity and support to our friends, colleagues and the wider community in the USA. The murder of George Floyd, alongside countless other black Americans, has once again highlighted to the world that racism is deeply rooted in all our institutions and communities. In light of this murder and other unnecessary acts of grievous and unconscionable violence, we are resolved to do more, as educators, to fight prejudice in all its forms, question our role in this and be determined to bring about positive change to eradicate racism and prejudice in all its forms.
Our curriculum is deeply rooted in developing community and building social equity and we have never shied away from facing and challenging what is unacceptable in our global, national and local community. We believe that the knowledge we acquire becomes powerful only when it is used to bring about positive social change so that we become better people and our world becomes a better place. As such, as a Trust, we feel it our responsibility to do more; not just to speak out against prejudice and injustice but be determined to do more to actively change the way we work, how we work, what we learn and how we affect positive change.
Our students already learn about racial inequality by studying the role of the British in the formulation of the slave trade and their part in the triangular trading of humans in the 18th century. We link this to the inhumane treatment of black communities in the USA in the 19th and 20th Centuries and their suffering at the hands of perverse attitudes and laws during this time. We study and celebrate the Civil Rights movement in the USA and the significant role it played, and continues to play, in fighting for equality and justice. Also, in Crew sessions across our Trust, there is a strong focus on equity justice and we constantly promote respect and tolerance.
However, we feel that we could do much more to highlight and change the systemic and institutional racism that exists in our own country by focusing more on how and why black people have been historically and more recently let down by our institutions and systems in the UK.
Therefore, today we pledge to review our curriculum at all phases, as well as our own understanding of racism, to integrate more consciously opportunities to educate our students about racial injustice. We will use experts to support us to challenge and confront racism and through this learning act to bring about more equity in our communities.
We stand with our friends who are fighting this injustice in the USA, in the UK and the wider world.
We stand with our friends and we pledge to act and do more to reflect on the history and actions of our own communities and institutions in the UK and how we can actively make them more socially equitable and more just for all.

And Repeat to Fade
This installation is a collage of the many surfaces and textures of sections of the distressed walls in Caroline Gardens Chapel. Painted canvas, plasterboard, found acrylic sheets, photographs printed on paper, vinyl and wooden boards are layered over one another. Many individual compositions are bought together and displayed in a central cluster, exploding and fracturing outwards. Layered textured surfaces showing degradation and the passing of time explore our emotional connection to places of shared memory, and the atmosphere created by this hidden and revealed history. The works also become a record of the time that has eroded these surfaces and reveal the domestic, un-fantastic banality of everyday existence. There is a poetic profundity to this erosion which speaks of metaphor and loss.

Four Ohio State graduate students are pirouetting from all corners of the country and the classroom to make their showcase at Columbus' annual OhioDance Festival.
Executive director of OhioDance Jane D'Angelo describes the conference as one that supports the diverse practices of dance through education, performances, outreach programs and professional development. The festival is a celebration of these works coming together by way of workshops, classes, discussions and performances.
"What we're looking at for the showcase is a variety of styles and ages — diversity, not only among professionals, but also pre-professionals," D'Angelo said. "Four graduate students is a significant number, especially at the graduate level. I think this is the first year I've seen this many students from OSU taking part in this festival."
The name of the event is "Dance Matters: Engaging Communities." Although the festival is native to Columbus, many of the event's multi-talented performers and choreographers are not, including the four OSU students involved in the show.
After working professionally for five years in Chicago and Pennsylvania, Josh Manculich, a Master of Fine Arts dance student, said it was both his family and desire to grow at OSU that influenced his decision to accept a three-year fellowship at the university.
"I get to go to school, work and see my family all in one place," Manculich said.
Manculich will be performing a solo piece in the concert lineup, as well as teaching a contemporary dance class in hopes of drawing dancers with various levels of experience.
"It's going to be a time where we can explore different pathways and movements that all ranges of movers can do," Manculich said. "I like offering a class for everyone so some people can be challenged and others can get in more practice."
Also teaching a class, as well as performing two solos, is Master of Fine Arts dance student Sarah Levitt. After two years of freelancing in dance capitals like Washington, D.C., and New York, then touring with a dance company, Levitt came to Columbus to develop her skills in dance education.
Levitt said she was excited about her time working with the festival's special guest Liz Lerman, a choreographer, dancer, performer and writer.
"(Lerman) is just really incredible at making connections between subject matters — how dance relates to the world, to politics, to science," said Levitt. "I always relish the chance to work with her."
Lerman founded the Liz Lerman Dance Exchange in 1976, a prominent contemporary dance company that was on the forefront of advocating social justice through dance and movement with its multi-generational ensemble, according to her website. Lerman has since received numerous honors in the dance world including the 2002 MacArthur "Genius Grant" Fellowship and a 2011 United States Artists Ford Fellowship in Dance. She will speak at the festival and teach a master class Saturday morning.
Along with anticipating Lerman, the students also shared an eagerness to showcase their work to the greater Columbus community as well as meet others in the dance field.
"Coming from the professional dance world, we're used to having to hustle to get our work seen, but OSU gives you that opportunity to get work showcased," Levitt said.
Similarly, Tammy Carrasco, a Master of Fine Arts dance student from North Carolina, is excited that OhioDance provides a platform for students' work to be seen.
Carrasco will be presenting a choreographed work entitled "Les Fauves (the Wild Beasts)" that will be performed by three OSU dance students. The work is based on a group of modern French Fauvist artists, who painted bold colors to replace standard representation of humans and life.
A former freelance dancer and teacher based in New York and later Philadelphia, Carrasco said she was attracted to the Department of Dance's curriculum because of its relationships.
"I'm constantly inspired by the values of the faculty in this supportive community. OSU is unique in how there is a symbiotic relationship in this department," Carrasco said. "There's a collaborative mentality here that resonates with the greater dance field, and I think OhioDance acknowledges that as well. We spend so much time looking inward and practicing outward to cultivate strong talent, and that hard work is valued and legible by the outside world."
A Ph.D. student in the Department of Dance at OSU, Lyndsey Vader said she left her general manager position in New York City to "discover who she is as a scholar at Ohio State."
"I am very much interested in finding out how I fit into the world of research that currently exists in the dance world. There a lot of discovery to be had concerning the moving body," Vader said.
Like many others, Vader is excited to engage beyond the walls of the studio. After showcasing her choreography inspired by Joseph Campbell's "The Hero with A Thousand Faces," Vader hopes to connect with peers and professionals at the festival.
"There is a very clear sense of vitality here in relationship to what kind of opportunities (OhioDance) is providing to the local dance community," Vader said.
"For me, the balance between the practical and theoretical is essential to how I construct my own sense of identity."
The OhioDance Festival will start on Friday with a Young Artists' Concert at 10:30 a.m., an hour-long event featuring local dancers ranging from elementary schools to high schools. Next on the lineup, choreographers will teach a series of master classes from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. in various styles including contemporary, ballroom, hip hop and Indian dance.
The rest of the weekend will be packed with dance-inspired recreational activities and classes such as Pilates, musical theater, jazz, Flamenco, ballet, tap, modern and South African dance.
"This year, we partnered with OSU sports medicine to create body release and aerobics classes," D'Angelo said of the special classes that will be offered.
Saturday events roll into the evening with discussions, an evening performance and an award ceremony. The evening performances start at 6:30 p.m.
OhioDance Festival will be held at The BalletMet Performance Space, located at 322 Mt. Vernon Ave. For tickets, class schedules, and more information, visit ohiodance.org.

At Last, A Kidney Is Coming For Henry -- On His 4th Birthday
He's sitting in a hospital bed, his legs crossed, decked out in a colorfully, star-studded, dark blue robe – and Henry Whitacre is giggling to his core. Laughing with pure, unadulterated joy.
It's a miraculous sound, really.
After all, Henry knows pain and he knows the brink of death. He's had 35 surgeries in his short life.
And yet, on this day, as Henry sits there hour upon hour for the hemodialysis he gets four days a week, he can't stop laughing.
Henry's favorite nurse, Shannon Anderson, is there to keep him company.
"Why are you poking your eyes?" she asks Henry as he pulls his eyelids up. "Why not?" Henry says with an adorably ornery look on his face.
Henry then takes his toy letters and starts spelling out funky words.
As Anderson tries to pronounce the words he has arranged – some that come out sounding really silly -- Henry falls forward in hysterics.
Everyone in dialysis at Riley is in love with Henry and has been rooting for Henry – ever since he came to the hospital at four months old.
And now, as he gets ready to celebrate his fourth birthday, come July 18, they are thrilled at the gift he will receive. The most incredible gift a boy like Henry can get.
A new kidney.
"We really didn't think he would make it for a while," says Anderson. "There were several times we didn't expect him to be a functioning child. There is no explanation for it -- other than he is a fighter and he is resilient."
Oh, yes, is Henry ever resilient.
Henry's mom Emily is sitting in a yellow gown telling Henry's story, revealing the ups and downs of a long journey.
"I love telling our story. Our family is a very religious, very spiritual family," she says. "For us, it's a 100 percent God thing."
Emily was 18 weeks along in her pregnancy, at a routine appointment with Henry's dad, Kevin. It wasn't time for an ultrasound yet, the one to find out the gender of the baby.
But the appointment was at the end of the day. A nurse told Emily
she could squeeze her in for an ultrasound, just to see what she could see.
"It was like a movie. It was surreal," says Emily, a social worker by trade. "They started the ultrasound and then the nurse was very quiet. She said, 'I'm going to go grab the doctor.'"
Emily knew immediately something was wrong. She told Kevin her fears. Ten minutes later, a doctor came back into the room.
On the ultrasound was a huge mass on Henry's stomach. Emily was immediately sent to a high-risk doctor in Fort Wayne.
What happened the next day was a whirlwind -- Emily and Kevin at a hospital for hours of testing where they found out that mass wasn't Henry's stomach.
He had posterior urethral valves, an abnormality of the urethra, the tube that drains urine from the bladder to the outside of the body for elimination.
That mass was his bladder, which had distended. There was already damage to his bladder and damage to his kidneys because urine was backing up.
Emily remembers going home that day and lying on the floor of Henry's nursery – and just crying.
She remembers Kevin coming in and comforting her, telling her that they would have this baby, that they would do everything to save this baby.
And so, Emily underwent an invasive surgery to save Henry's life.
He was born at 31 weeks gestation, a beautiful baby boy. And then, Henry started on his journey.
"You either have faith in God or not," Emily says. "We chose to put it in God's hands and trust."
Henry spent the first six months of his life in the NICU. At six weeks old, he started dialysis.
There were plenty of scary times. Henry would bear down when he was in pain and stop breathing. On several occasions, he would code and crash. Doctors would rush in and have to push on his tiny body to revive him.
At four months old, Henry came to Riley where he spent another two months in the NICU. In total, he was in the hospital for 179 days before he finally got to go home in January of 2015.
For the next almost two years, Henry was on peritoneal dialysis, which he could do at home. Each night, Emily and Kevin would hook him up before bed for the 10-hour treatment.
But in the fall of 2016, Henry got sick with an infection in his catheter. He had bladder reconstruction surgery in November.
The stress from that surgery caused an ulcer that started bleeding severely. Emily calls it the worst time of the family's life.
"We thought we were going to lose him," she says. "He was bottoming out."
There were nights when the doctors told Emily and Kevin they would just have to hope Henry could get through the night. They called the family and their pastors to Riley.
Emily remembers sitting next to Henry's bed with Kevin one of those nights, holding his little hand. And she told Henry the hardest thing a mom can say to their only child.
"I just told him, 'Babe, you are so tired. I know you are. And you have fought so hard. If you can't do this anymore, I just want you to know it's OK,'" she says. "'You fought so hard and we love you and Jesus has got you. If you don't get to stay with us, you're going to a better place.'"
Henry squeezed her hand and they prayed. He made it through that night and, the next morning, he started to get better.
And then Henry got to go home. Since that time in 2016, he has been on hemodialysis, traveling to Riley three, four, five or six days a week, depending on his need.
When he's at home, Henry likes to be outside playing yard games and in the sandbox. He likes to watch Thomas the Tank Engine train shows.
And he likes to laugh – and he loves to make other people laugh. At his church, he is the class clown. At Riley he is the cheery patient with the feisty attitude.
Henry, it seems, knows what it means to appreciate life. After all, he's fought so hard for it.

The circumstances that occurred on July 31st reminded us of the dangers in the world, even right here within our home town. The shootings of two of Los Banos' finest were both heart wrenching, and sickening to many of us. The fact that the world has changed should not mean that our own city has to be a part of this negativity too.
Over the past few years, I have noticed a great divide in the showing of RESPECT, or lack of showing this to our Police Officers. I grew up in an era when most gave respect without thinking about it. We were taught at an early age about this value, and it would remain with us to this day. However, others have grown up lacking the basic and common lessons of courtesy, and respect, especially to the men and women in blue who protect us every day, placing their own lives in jeopardy.
My family and I have a very personal interest because a member of our family, as well as some very close and personal friends, which are like family, are a vital part of our local Police Department.
I hope and pray daily for these individuals in the blue uniform who constantly place their life before others. I also pray (yes, I pray) that parents strive to imprint upon their children's minds that the Police are present for our safety and protection. Give them respect please. As they watch out for each of us, let us also watch out for their safety as well.
My daughter recently spoke with Mayor Michael Villalta regarding her concerns and she felt he was sincere about needing to make changes in this community, however funding has become the big issue. Unfortunately, my daughter did not feel confident that this was going to happen soon. She felt the city focuses more on the "little" things than the more important issues that not only could make a difference, but WOULD make a difference.
Safety should come first. She asked, as many others have wondered, why the department has not employed more personnel to cover every shift, especially those shifts at night, and in the early morning hours. I, too understand the complexity of balancing budgets, however it is now time to do something about the issue at hand. I would like to hear more than the response "we're working on it," and know that corrections to the problem will be made in the near future. Ok, so again, perhaps city officials should look over very carefully those expenditures that could be either cut, or lessened, and budget more toward the salaries and benefits in hiring more officers to not only protect the citizens, but to protect their brothers in uniform.
Our city has grown in population in an overwhelming way during the past 25-30 years. Has the staffing in our Police Department increased to a proper ratio of officers to that of its citizens?
I do not believe any one of us wants to ever hear, or see another incident such as what happened in July in Los Banos.
We thank all who responded to help Officer Hew, and Officer Piñon on that morning. We thank these two men for their bravery and dedication to their duties for us, and we extend our sincere appreciation to all of our Police Officers.
Stay safe dear friends in blue.

Junior AP Language and Composition students are currently reading Henry David Thoreau's memoir, "Walden." In the memoir, Thoreau explores the experiences he had in solitude while examining fundamental elements of identity. As the students read the memoir, AP Lang teacher Ms. Shery Kearney is teaching them about the philosophies Thoreau expressed in the book, and she is encouraging them to adopt some of these philosophies in their own lives.
To this end, Ms. Kearney assigned students a homework assignment in which she asked them to live as Thoreau lived. In "Walden," reflecting on his time in the woods, Thoreau writes, "I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life." Over the weekend of Oct. 20, Mrs. Kearney asked her students to live by this most famous quote and suck the marrow out of life. Students had to do something fun or something they wouldn't normally do over the weekend, take a picture of it, and post the picture on social media with the hashtag #aplangsucksthemarrow.
Students were enthusiastic about the assignment, and many of them posted pictures of themselves sucking the marrow out of life on their social media accounts. Some of their posts are below.

Shield your lavatory ground from splashes while conserving your feet warm and comfortable with a trendy bathtub mat or rug from west elm. Whether you're searching for a traditional-type border mat to place by your tub or a recent zigzag black and white mat, you may easily discover what you want from our collection of tub mats. Enhance and full the look of the toilet with a geometric or floral shower curtain in a colour that works effectively together with your existent decor. From striped bathe curtains with a playful look to bordered bathe curtains in a impartial shade, it is easy to discover the proper design to add a splash of pleasure to your toilet.
Why & How? Properly, for starters, I don't go for all the same type of toilet rugs in every rest room of my house, nor do I keep the same kind of bath mat all year long. I find that incorporating a bamboo bath mat is the greatest tub mat for summer time and they actually change the look of my rest room. My wooden bathtub mat additionally fits the season higher as opposed to rug/thread type in winter time.
Next you'll make your flowers. Take your reduce T-Shirt strips and start wrapping them around the circle. Once one T-Shirt strip has come to an end, just add one other. Preserve wrapping the strips around the circle until you could have the desired flower effect. Now all the while you're doing this you wish to be gluing the strips to your circle.
I now have Moen products all through my home and revel in each time I get a brand new one to put in and try out. The features are a bit different every time and I've come to respect the designs and how they add to the enjoyment of their use. The previous faucet that I had in my lavatory had a excessive arc to add extra room under the water stream for an easier time washing your fingers or even delicate things.
What to do: Carefully remove your plate glass mirror. (You may discover movies outlining two very different methods on the bottom of this article.) The mirror is probably attached to the wall with adhesive. You could possibly take away the whole mirror in one piece, or it could break throughout removing. Sand any remaining adhesive from the wall, then clean on a thin layer of joint compound to even out the wall floor. Paint walls, then grasp your fabulous framed mirror in its new residence.

This past few months have really made me appreciate myself as a teacher. We have our ups and downs but sometimes when bigger things come into our lives, we do not really know how to handle it right away. As an adult, I admit, I do not know how to handle some of the things that have popped into my life so what can I expect from a three, four, or five year old child? It may not seem like much to us at the time, but to a child of this age group, change does not come easy. A change in their daily routine can wreak havoc on their emotions, which they are just starting to explore. As we try to make sense of why a child is acting a certain way, that child is having a hard time comprehending their needs and wants. Why is it that they feel sad? Angry? Frustrated? No matter how chaotic the classroom is or how exhausted I am with dealing with the same thing over and over again, I take a deep breath, step back, get down to their eye level, and help them express their emotions.
Use your words. Tell me what you need. I cannot help you if I do not know why you are upset. ….Oh! You are upset because K took your toy. It is okay to get upset but we do not use our hands to hit friends. Where do we keep our hands? Yes, to ourselves. What else could we have done instead of hitting our friends? You're right, you could have told the teacher. You could have also talked with your friend and said "No thank you. I did not like it that you took my toy".
It is not always easy and there are days I want to throw in the towel. But I don't because these kids look up to my TA and I. We spend 6 hours together, five days a week. When they are upset they look to us for support, maybe not right away, but eventually. Sometimes, all they need is a hug that says everything will be okay.
this was one heck of a week
class observations
teacher evaluations
getting ready for conferences
meeting deadlines
transitions- criers, complainers, elopers, loud talkers
3-minute bathroom break = lunch break
but no lunch
quiet time does not equate to quiet time
LITTLE PEOPLE dealing with BIG EMOTIONS
paperwork, paperwork, paperwork
Our butterflies hatched 🐛🦋😌
I bet my children's parents never have to worry about weeds in their yard. Because these kids…. they pluck every beautiful flower (or weed) they see. Instead of playing they're busy picking flowers for their mommies and daddies ❤❤, wiping their pollen-stained hands on their clothes, their hair whipping in the wind, their eyes shying away from the sun. I do not know what their parents think of when they open up flower-filled backpacks, see mud-caked clothes, or pollen stained on dresses, but I hope they realize the love their children have for them when they say, "Look mommy/daddy. I got you a flower!"
Kids: Ms. Sara…. it's really windy.
Me: I know! Hold onto yourselves so you don't get blown away.
Holding onto their hats and scarves, some of the older ones look at me puzzled while the younger ones look at me in amazement, as if to ask Can that really happen? 😉 😄

Something I have to remind myself everyday since my sheep have a tendency to wander away from the flock… some more so than others 😊
I am starting out this new school year as a Head Start Teacher and will continue to learn with little people.

Rupee appreciation, coupled with hopes of positive incentives in the upcoming Union Budget and broadly positive Asian indices, lifted the Indian equities markets on Monday.
The key indices provisionally closed in the positive territory, as healthy buying was witnessed in metal, automobile and oil and gas stocks.
The wider 51-scrip Nifty of the National Stock Exchange (NSE) rose by 42.15 points or 0.50 per cent, to 8,391.50 points.
The barometer 30-scrip sensitive index (Sensex) of the BSE, which opened at 26,990.93 points, provisionally closed at 27,117.34 points (at 3.30 p.m.) — up 82.84 points or 0.31 per cent from the previous close at 27,034.50 points.
The Sensex touched a high of 27,167.79 points and a low of 26,963.58 points during the intra-day trade.
The BSE market breadth was tilted in favour of the bulls — with 1,613 advances and 1,130 declines.
On last Friday, the benchmark indices were dragged lower by negative global cues, disappointing quarterly results and a weak rupee.
The NSE Nifty receded by 85.75 points or 1.02 per cent, to 8,349.35 points, while the BSE Sensex was down 274.10 points or 1.00 per cent.

I've done it in western Colorado.
Last summer I did a garage at the owner's direction. He had the Bondo material and wanted to use it up. I used it to patch knot holes and cracks in western red cedar siding.
I have to admit, it did the job, and after paint it looked better than the house.
I've seen the garage since and so far it's held the patch.
Good luck.
Natural wood protectant from cedar wood waste
I own a small company that extracts natural chemicals from wood waste from the timber industry (such as Western Red Cedar sawdust). Since Western Red Cedar is so effective at keeping wood eating microbes at bay, the extract would make a great natural product for applying as a decay retardent to exterior wood such as decks, furniture, siding etc. Plus it smells really nice.
Does this sound like a product that consumers would be interested in? What exterior wood treatments do you use? How could they be better? In the form of a preservative or a sealant (like Thomson's)? How much would c

From camp's earliest years, Merrie-Woode has been built around the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. As our founder, Dammie Day, was from British heritage, she chose to set the narrative of camp around these old English tales of chivalry and high ideals. You will find many references to Arthurian legend at camp, whether it is in names of camp buildings, stories told, or special traditional programming at Merrie-Woode.
Every Sunday night, we gather as a community around our weekly campfire. This is a time to sing together, tell stories, and reflect on our week. The torch brought in to light the campfire at the beginning of each session symbolizes the Spirit of Merrie-Woode. At our closing campfire, that torch is brought out and extinguished in the lake for the Spirit of Merrie-Woode to remain safe over the long winter.
At the end of each session, we present the traditional camp pageant of Follow the Gleam. The drama of King Arthur and his knights' search for the Holy Grail is reenacted in our Chapel area. Afterwards, campers receive a lit candle and walk down the cabin line to the swimming docks where the candles are floated out on the lake, signifying the Merrie-Woode spirit in all of us going back out into the world. The high ideals of King Arthur, set in place by Dammie Day, live on at Merrie-Woode. More lasting than athletic skills or artistic pursuits, are these ideals that the campers take home. They learn that, because they have been given so much, much is expected of them in terms of useful lives dedicated to serving others.
Merrie-Woode is a community where each camper is valued for who she is and where the majestic beauty of the surrounding mountains makes her keenly aware of God's presence. The symbol of light pervades our camp tradition. It is our hope that each camper will carry that light with her, recognizing her unique talents and capacity for learning, possessing the desire to serve the ever-widening world in which she will grow into adulthood.
"Aye, Sir Galahad, that we might see the grail!"

PlanetM recently hosted their very first Hardware Tech Summit at the Lexus Velodrome in Midtown Detroit. The event hosted a multitude of Southeast Michigan entrepreneurs, a pitch competition, open panels with key players in the hardware space, and bike racing. The event was also held in the during the Detroit Startup Week – a five day celebration of entrepreneurship in the heart of the Motor City. Here were three top things take away from the summit:
Bollinger Motors
The summit kicked off with a guest appearance from Robert Bollinger, CEO of Bollinger Motors. If you don't know about Bollinger Motors, well… you should.
Bollinger Motors, based in Ferndale, Michigan, is building a one of a kind, rugged, and highly capable sport utility electric truck. With production expected to begin in 2020, their Bollinger B1 truck is projected to have a range of over 200 miles on one charge. We can also expect the truck to have 668 ft-lbs of torque and 614 HP; that's more than any of the standard gasoline trucks available today.
And for those of you that like to feel the wind (talking to you Jeep fans), the truck also features the ability to easily remove the glass, doors, and roof panels.
I know what you're thinking: how is Bollinger Motors going to compete with the likes of Rivian or Tesla's electric trucks? CEO Robert Bollinger stated that Bollinger Motors was not competing in the same space. Rather, the B1 truck is designed for a more rugged application and a very specific market niche; stripping the electric vehicle down to the bare essentials for a truly down to earth experience. The first public reveal of the Bollinger B1 truck prototype is expected September, 2019.
PlanetM's Hardware Pitch competition awarded a $10,000 check to the startup Kuhmute, based out of Flint, Michigan. Kuhmute focuses on decluttering inner cities of unsightly scooters and electric bicycles by providing universal charge hubs for these mobility devices. The startup, led by two recent graduates of Kettering University, displayed an impressive slide deck with promising technology for future inner cities.
Centropolis Accelerator
One of the sponsors of the Hardware Tech Summit is the Centropolis Accelerator, located in Southfield Michigan. The mission of the accelerator is to fuel the growth of Southeast Michigan's small manufacturers and hardware entrepreneurs by providing access to mentors, workshops, cutting-edge technologies, corporate connections, college students, events, workspace, and a collaborative community of peers. The accelerator has already gained significant traction with Michigan startups, including companies like Pretch, Steambox, and Make-Cup. Any Southeast Michigan entrepreneur should take a serious look at the Centropolis Accelerator as a way to launch their product.
