All three suspects from the incident in which three individuals broke into a vehicle belonging to a DEA agent and then fired a shot at him are in custody.
Chattanooga Police arrested one juvenile and two adults earlier Saturday.
Robert Penn III was charged with robbery, burglary of an auto and theft over $1,000. Penn also had outstanding warrants for aggravated robbery, aggravated burglary and two counts of theft.
Thomas Lee Ellis was also arrested and charged with burglary of an auto and theft over $1,000.
In an incident Thursday, Chattanooga Police said they responded to a shots fired called and found the DEA agent, who said he had just been shot at. He said he was at his home in East Brainerd with his wife asleep when his wife heard the front door knob being jiggled.
The agent said he went outside and saw three black males in his driveway. He said he identified himself as police and the trio ran to a small, reddish-colored SUV. As they left the scene, one of the suspects fired at him.
The DEA agent was able to get the tag number on the vehicle. The red 2005 Ford Escape was reported stolen from East Ridge.
Upon returning to his house, the agent found that his work vehicle had been broken into. The suspects had busted out the passenger side window with a large cinder block they had picked up behind the house. He found that the suspects had taken several bags of his police equipment.
Also on Thursday, Officer Jamie Riddle spotted the stolen Ford Escape on Rogers Road. He turned around, but the SUV went around a red Ford Camry and sped off. The Camry swerved repeatedly so that the officer was not able to get around to catch up to the Escape.
The Camry stopped at 400 Sequoia Dr. A black male fled the vehicle and was captured about a block away a short time later. He was found to be a juvenile. The Camry was also found to be stolen.
The Ford Escape was later found wrecked and abandoned at Tunnel Boulevard and Germantown Road.
Some of the agent's belongings were inside, and some were also in the Camry.
Additional items belonging to the agent were found in a dumpster in East Ridge. Officers found still more of the agent's items in a storage unit on Bonny Oaks Drive that was registered to Darlene Bradley of 1304 S. Lyerly St. There were also several suspected stolen items in the unit.
Police said fingerprints of Penn, Ellis and the juvenile were found on the Ford Escape.
Ellis was located at 5206 Usher Dr. Police said he admitted breaking into the agent's vehicle and taking items from it.
Penn was located at the Southside Recreation Center on 40th Street. All questioning was stopped after he asked for a lawyer.
Police said on Thursday prior to the incident with the agent, Penn was driving the SUV and the juvenile was behind him in the Camry. Penn stopped the SUV on Anita Drive and had the juvenile stop behind him.
Police said Penn pointed toward an elderly woman walking from her mail box. Penn exited the SUV and acted as a lookout, while the juvenile knocked the woman to the ground and stole her purse.
Penn and the juveniles then got back into the stolen vehicles and took off.
An officer spotted them leaving the scene of that robbery. He tried to catch up with them, but they were driving recklessly at a high rate of speed and got away from the officer. That was when Penn wrecked the SUV.

RV for use as a cabin
Hi and welcome! If you haven't already, please check local ordinances. Our neighbors did as you are planning to for a few months. One day a police car pulled up and informed them that they were breaking the law and had three days to move. On our lake we can't have utilities without a fixed structure that includes living quarters. We lake dwellers were unaware of the ordinance, as more than ten lots were used this way, but it was enforced for everyone after one cranky person complained.

Licensing questions
OP here. Our friends were required to park in a lot and not move without a CDL licensed driver or face $25,000 fine. Yes, patrolman asked them to get the alcohol out of the suitcase that was in the truck box and then he dumped it on the road. Where does one go to learn about vehicle length and CDL requirements? Apparently it doesn't matter how the truck or trailer is titled, used, or whether it was carrying anything for commerce. X length = commercial according to patrolman. I'm getting frustrated trying to find it online. Finding lots of info but not that stuff. You all have been quite helpful. Thanks so much.

Hi, OP here. Thanks for advice so far. I thought Inwas right on the rv questions, and it seems you all are in agreement. As for the trailer question: it's a 35- foot gooseneck pulled by a non-dually pickup. Hauling four calves plus equipment like fans, haters, brushes, and feed to a calf show in Ohio. The calves are not for sale. No one in the vehicle had a CDL, not required at home. Both truck and trailer are registered in same individual's name and he doesn't have a CDL. Hipo said that its length made it commercial in Iowa. Fined for operating without CDL, no commercial vehicle inspection stickers, failure to stop at weigh stations. Hipo asked if they were carrying alcohol. Sure, two sealed fifths of Black Velvet in one guy's suitcase in the truck box....which the hipo demanded and poured out on the side of the highway. No one was speeding, everyone cooperated including paying the fines. Hipo was not friendly. In all our travels with livestock (ND, SD, MT, WY, CO, MN, IA, NE, KS, IL, IN, KY) they've never been pulled over for anything, so this was a real shock.

Licensing questions
1. If I am licensed to drive my RV in my home state, I am licensed when I go to other states, true or false? So I can't be pulled over and fined for lack of air brake endorsement, for example, if it's not required by home state, true or false? 2. Try this: personal pickup pulling personal livestock trailer, no CDL required in home state. Crossed into Iowa, and hipo says that livestock trailer is commercial here, due to its length, regardless of use. Driver must have CDL. vehicle must have commercial inspection stickers. None of that is required in our home state. Can they do this? 3. I know some will say find an attorney. Suggest one to call and I will, thank you.

Watergate Salad
My mom makes a Watergate cake that I LOVE. It's a pistachio cake with "cover up" frosting (cool Whip + pistachio pudding). We used to have it for St. Patrick's day, and I'd request it on my birthday. To NYCGirl-- The first decade of our marriage, I was amused and a little frustrated that my in-laws always turned up their noses at my salads. MIL explained that to their family a salad was either coleslaw or something made with macaroni or jello or Cool Whip. Hmmm, at my house jello and cool whip were dessert. Sorry to veer off topic. Was just hoping you'd enjoy a laugh at my goofy in-laws.

Before the kids grow up: A modified bucket list
Let the kids research and pick the destination. Maybe they saw something in the movies or tv and that could have sparked an interest. Agreed! DS wanted to see the Space Needle, which led to a really fun week in Seattle. If the kids are excited about something, we try to capitalize on it.

Before the kids grow up: A modified bucket list
I had a bucket list for our family. We took a trip or two every year (some in the RV). As the kids grew older, their summers were even busier than the school year due to their activities. It was a wrench to let go of some of my travel dreams, but they were learning, having fun, and staying out of trouble. Those summer interests have led them to their future careers, which is great. So my two 20-ish kids haven't had many family trips in the last three years, but since age 5 they've been to several major cities, Disney, a cruise, Jamaica, professional sporting events, snowmobiling in the Bighorns and yes, the Black Hills, Badlands NP, Teddy Roosevelt NP, and Yellowstone. We've toured factories and museums, been spellbound by wild horses and bears, and found their great-great-great grandparents' graves. We've spent sunsets chest-deep in a gentle sea with an ice cream cone in each hand. Spending time together around home is great, too, but having a little adventure together --even if it doesn't go completely smoothly -- really teaches them about the world, home, people, gratefulness. My new bucket list is things the DH and I want to see/do.

How do you find a place for lunch in your motorhome?
If I'm on the interstate, I look for a truck stop or a rest area. On the blue roads here on the prairie, I pull into a grain elevator or a farm implement dealer (big parking lots). A lumber yard or church will do, too. In small towns, if the speed limit drops to 35 I pull onto the shoulder in the middle of a block with the hazard lights on, keeping away from stop lights. I eat in on travel days.

Potluck winners needed please
These are favorites around our house and for easy get-togethers. BBQs, Taverns, Sloppy Joes Brown 2 lbs hamburger, then drain fat. Add 1 c ketchup and 1 c. Coca-cola. stir well and simmer on low heat, covered, for 15 minutes so flavors marry. Serve on buns. Freezes well. For potluck, keep warm in crockpot. Ranch Pasta Salad 8 oz. rotini or macaroni, cooked and cooled 2 medium tomatoes, seeded and chopped 1 cucumber, chopped 1/2 cup real bacon bits or finely chopped cooked bacon 1 package Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix 1 cup good mayonnaise (not salad dressing) 1/2 cup milk Combine pasta, veggies and bacon in a large bowl. In a medium bowl add dressing mix to mayo and milk, and stir well with a whisk to combine thoroughly. Add dressing to large bowl and stir. Chill for one hour before serving. Dessert?? Hard to go wrong with mini lemon cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. Line a mini muffin tin with mini cupcake papers. Prepare a boxed lemon cake mix according to directions on the package, and fill each cupcake paper 2/3 full. Bake for 1/2 the time stated on the box for regular sized cupcakes. Cool. For frosting, bring 4 oz cream cheese to room temp in a mixing bowl. Add two Tbsp milk and 2 to 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar. Beat until very smooth using electric mixer, starting on lowest speed. Frost cupcakes and store them in the fridge.

Dealing with the unpredicablity of life and your camper!
No scolding from me. I have felt that way, too, and in truth have had equal amounts of good weather and awful for RVing. When the weather has us beaten, we still like the getaway. Since we have to be indoors in less than 400 square feet, we end up having good conversations. Everyone helps with meals and we eat together. We dress for the weather and head outside each day, too. We grouse about the weather, but it sure is great for us to have those hours together. They have become rare.

Builders Inc. leadership passes to next generation
Send this to a friend
- Chris Moon
One of the largest property owners in Wichita has new leadership.
Mike Garvey has been installed as the president of Builders Inc., a firm with nearly 3 million square feet of Wichita real estate in its portfolio. Garvey takes over the family-owned company from his father, Jim Garvey, who is retaining a role as a consultant to the firm.
The new leader says he wants to keep the company on its growth path.
"In my mind, I see us acquiring more commercial property," Mike Garvey says.
Garvey represents his family's fourth generation of company leadership, which has ties to two of the most distinctive buildings on the city's skyline -- the former Holiday Inn high-rise hotel downtown and the 22-story Epic Center.
Builders Inc. is the city's third-largest commercial property management firm and Sedgwick County's 15th largest taxpayer.
The firm owns 1.9 million square feet of commercial and industrial space in Wichita. That includes the Garvey Center downtown, Parklane Shopping Center at Lincoln and Oliver and the 720,000-square-foot Garvey Industrial Park in southwest Wichita.
Builders Inc. also owns a million square feet of apartments in the city.
Fourth Generation
Ray Garvey started Builders Inc. in 1941 by building homes and brick fourplexes. The company hit its stride after World War II under his son, Willard Garvey, who expanded its reach into commercial and industrial real estate.
Willard Garvey in 1987 built, then sold the 325-foot Epic Center, still the state's tallest building. The family for decades also has owned the Garvey Center, downtown's second-largest office facility.

Oracle CEO Larry Ellison, a late convert to the cloud, formally announced the coming of an Oracle Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud to compete primarily with Amazon Web Services.
The announcement was made during his keynote Sunday at Oracle OpenWorld. Larry, being Larry, and this is so Larry, actually let the cat out of the bag a couple of weeks ago during the company's conference call with Wall Street when it reported its numbers.
One little detail Larry didn't mention before, the new cloud is gonna be based on Oracle's own eight-core Xeon-based InfiniBand-linked Exa- hardware, its Exadata, Exalogic and Exalytics machines including a new Exadata database machine that houses enough built-in memory that users won't need external storage so kiss off, EMC and Hitachi.
This new Exadata X3 will have 26TB of processor memory - 4TB of storage per rack and 40TB of compressed data in main memory. (Compression is big in Oracle's sales pitch.) The X3's 22TB of flash computer memory is four times as much flash storage per rack than the previous Exadata version and it's supposed to process data way, way faster than disk-based systems.
Ellison claimed that "Customers will save so much money on storage that it will pay for that Exadata X3 over and over again."
The box, which will compete with SAP's HANA database - the X3 is supposed to process 52 times as much data as HANA - and IBM and HP systems, will start at $200,000 with deep discounts available,. That's reportedly one-eighth the price of IBM machines.
Oracle wants to replicate its IaaS widgetry on a customer's site as an Oracle Private Cloud. In both cases Oracle will own the hardware and manage it.
What's still unclear is when either of them will actually get here and what it'll all cost - other than that it'll be utility pricing. Oracle co-president Mark Hurd was on CNBC Monday afternoon indicating Oracle will sweet-talk accounts with tales of how much money it can save them on storage.
The new cloud-based multi-tenant Oracle 12c database is key to the scheme and that won't be out until early next year so that may be the clouds' target date. Multi-tenancy will let users gang their databases on consolidated servers, move some of the workload off the apps and, Ellison says, provide the security that multi-tenancy at the application layer doesn't provide.
Since it's a "container" database meant to hold lots of databases, multiple companies can also share the thing while keeping their data separate and sharing underlying hardware resources like memory or file storage.
Reportedly based on a fundamentally new architecture, separate memory and processes are allocated to each database and users can take "one dedicated set of memory, one set of operating system processes, and then plug multiple separate private databases into that single container."
Ellison called it the "first multi-tenant database in the world." It's definitely the first major revision of Oracle's database software in five years and compared to the current Oracle 11, the 12c is supposed to use one-sixth the hardware and run five times as many databases.
Oracle IaaS widgetry will include its own operating system, virtualization, middleware, storage and of course apps.
Ellison claimed his SaaS and PaaS customers asked for IaaS. Whether they had something other than what he called "plain old commodity infrastructure" in mind remains to be seen.
Oracle is flying in the face of conventional cloud wisdom by using a scale-up approach based on specialized high-end boxes rather than a web-scale scale-out approach like Amazon, Facebook and Google. It'll be brilliant if it sells and creates a natural marketplace for Oracle's hardware, whose revenues dropped 24% last quarter to $779 million.
TechCrunch, for one, thinks "Amazon has nothing to worry about. Oracle will never win the cloud without developers....Oracle will never match Amazon Web Services' (AWS) first-class treatment of the developer community. Nor will Oracle even try: it's a vertical iron machine that Ellison believes has the power to be the new 'cloud' for IT. It is not a horizontal distributed, self-service environment that you get when you use AWS. By ignoring developers, Oracle has lost before it has even gotten started. A service like AWS scales because the people who use it are developers. And those developers create apps that power services that millions of people use....Without developers, Oracle's cloud play will become limited to a traditional base of customers who have a heavy dependence on legacy solutions and are committed to integrating Oracle-engineered systems."
There is one thing, though. Oracle, like IBM, knows how to sell to the C suite where the bills get paid.
One of the biggest challenges when developing connected devices is identifying user value and delivering it through successful user experiences. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Mike Kuniavsky, Principal Scientist, Innovation Services at PARC, described an IoT-specific approach to user experience design that combines approaches from interaction design, industrial design and service design to create experiences that go beyond simple connected gadgets to create lasting, multi-device experiences grounded in people's real needs and desires.

Enthusiasm for the Internet of Things has reached an all-time high. In 2013 alone, venture capitalists spent more than $1 billion dollars investing in the IoT space. With "smart" appliances and devices, IoT covers wearable smart devices, cloud services to hardware companies. Nest, a Google company, detects temperatures inside homes and automatically adjusts it by tracking its user's habit. These technologies are quickly developing and with it come challenges such as bridging infrastructure gaps, abiding by privacy concerns and making the concept a reality. These challenges can't be addressed w...

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

Karin Boye
The Nightjar
Half awake the summer night broods
quietly on dreams that no one knows.
The tarns' glistening floods
reflect a twilight sky's
infinity, pale, morose,
Whiter grow the stars on high.
Afar, afar
the nightjar
sings alone her toneless, comfortless melody.
Never boldly, towards the heights she swings,
because of her lowness hovers low.
Downy twilight wings
seem bound to the earth,
by dust and soil weighed down below.
Woe to him whose wings in pair
cannot rise,
only linger,
helplessly drawn to the mud, whose colours they bear.
But the whitest of white among swans,
that travel in morning's bright space
their royal lanes,
never cherished a yearning
such as the nightjar has.
None has a longing so true
for the distant and far
as the nightjar
for the ever beckoning, ever yielding blue.

Doom II dated for XBLA
Hell on Earth returns
It has certainly been a while since Doom II was announced, and the merger of id Software and Zenimax probably didn't help but it has finally received a release date.
Doom II: Hell on Earth will release on Xbox Live Arcade on 26th of May, which is this week.
The port, handled by Nerve who did sterling work on the original Doom's XBLA port, will feature an added four player split-screen multiplayer mode as well as the traditional online modes.
The price is as yet unknown but, given that Doom launched at 800 Microsoft Points it would be a safe bet that Doom II will cost the same.
Thanks IncGamers.

The 1920s Portal
The 1920s was a decade that began on January 1, 1920 and ended on December 31, 1929. It is sometimes referred to as the Roaring Twenties or the Jazz Age, when speaking about the United States, Canada, or the United Kingdom. In Europe the decade is sometimes referred to as the "Golden Age Twenties" because of the economic boom following World War I.
Since the end of the 20th century, the economic strength during the 1920s has drawn close comparison with the 1950s and 1990s, especially in the United States of America. These three decades are regarded as periods of economic prosperity, which lasted throughout nearly each entire decade. Each of the three decades followed a tremendous event that occurred in the previous decade (World War I and Spanish flu in the 1910s, World War II in the 1940s, and the end of the Cold War in the late 1980s). The 1920s marked the first time in the United States that the population in the cities surpassed the population of rural areas. This was due to rapid urbanization starting in the 1920s.
However, not all countries enjoyed this prosperity. The Weimar Republic, like many other European countries, had to face a severe economic downturn in the opening years of the decade, because of the enormous debt caused by the war as well as the Treaty of Versailles. Such a crisis would culminate with a devaluation of the Mark in 1923, eventually leading to severe economic problems and, in the long term, favour the rise of the Nazi Party.
The 1920s were characterized by the rise of radical political movements, especially in regions that were once part of empires. Communism began attracting larger amounts of support following the success of the October Revolution and the Bolsheviks' determination to win the subsequent Russian Civil War. To move the backward economy of Russia towards a more developed economy in which socialism would become possible, the Bolsheviks adopted a policy of mixed economics, from 1921 to 1928, and also created the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics at the end of 1922. The 1920s also experienced the rise of the far right and fascism in Europe and elsewhere, being perceived as a solution to prevent the spread of Communism. The knotty economic problems also favoured the rise of dictators in Eastern Europe and the Balkans, such as Józef Piłsudski in the Second Polish Republic and Peter and Alexander Karađorđević in the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. The devastating Wall Street Crash in October 1929 drew a line under the prosperous 1920s.

Selected biography
Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961) was an American writer and journalist. His distinctive writing style, characterized by economy and understatement, influenced 20th-century fiction, as did his apparent life of adventure and the public image he cultivated. He produced most of his work between the mid-1920s and the mid-1950s, and his career peaked in 1954 when he won the Nobel Prize in Literature. Hemingway's fiction was successful because the characters he presented exhibited authenticity that reverberated with his audience. Many of his works are classics of American literature. After leaving high school, he worked for a few months as a reporter before leaving for the Italian front to become an ambulance driver during World War I, which became the basis for his novel A Farewell to Arms. His first novel, The Sun Also Rises, was written in 1924. After divorcing Hadley Richardson in 1927, Hemingway married Pauline Pfeiffer; they divorced following Hemingway's return from covering the Spanish Civil War, after which he wrote For Whom the Bell Tolls. Martha Gellhorn became his third wife in 1940, but he left her for Mary Welsh Hemingway after World War II, during which he was present at D-Day and the liberation of Paris. Shortly after the publication of The Old Man and the Sea in 1952, Hemingway went on safari to Africa, where he was almost killed in a plane crash that left him in pain or ill-health for much of the rest of his life. Hemingway had permanent residences in Key West, Florida, and Cuba during the 1930s and '40s, but in 1959 he moved from Cuba to Idaho, where he committed suicide in mid 1961.

Sullivan buys West Ham in deal that makes 'no sense'
Former Birmingham owner admits new club is struggling to avoid relegation and saddled with £110m debts
Wednesday 20 January 2010
The new West Ham United owner David Sullivan yesterday admitted he would not have bought into the Irons were it any other club.
The life-long Hammers fan has, along with business partner David Gold, a former youth team player at Upton Park, acquired 50 per cent of the Premier League outfit in a deal which values the club at £110m and gives the duo operational and commercial control.
However, while living out a boyhood dream Sullivan – who helped turn the fortunes of Birmingham around before selling the club last year – admitted their latest venture made no business sense. West Ham's overall debt stands at around £100m, owed to both banks and other clubs, including settlements to Sheffield United over the Carlos Tevez affair and former manager Alan Curbishley.
"We would not buy this club at all if this wasn't West Ham," said Sullivan, sporting a claret coat to mark the occasion. "It makes no commercial sense for anyone to buy this club and it's amazing that two other people wanted to buy it. One is another West Ham supporter [Tony Fernandes] and the Italian [Massimo Cellino], I am not quite sure if he looked at the books properly, but if he looked at the books he might have walked away."
The pair have also brought Karren Brady, who they worked with at Birmingham, on to the board.
Sullivan, who has an option to buy the remaining 50 per cent from Icelandic bank Straumur in the next four years, also said they would aim to move West Ham into the Olympic Stadium following the 2012 games.
The new owners were set to meet manager Gianfranco Zola last night.

Purchasing a car is an incredibly intimidating affair, especially for the uninformed. If you are struggling with getting the right car, this article can help you to reduce the price. By paying a fair amount, you will feel happier and more relaxed about your purchase. Good luck with your car purchase! Do not allow yourself to buy the first car that you see, even if it seems like it would be perfect for you. There are so many vehicles out there for sale that buying the first one may cause you to lose out on making a much better deal on a car you may like a bit more. Visit your local bank and get pre-approved for a car loan. This one step cannot only save you a lot of time at dealership, but it will also save you money most of the time. By getting a loan at your bank, you can negotiate your interest rate more effectively; thus, lowering your overall payment. Continue reading

Look naturally gorgeous all day, in person AND on camera
Your face will be in the spotlight on your wedding day, and looking your best - but still like yourself - will help you radiate confidence, poise, and personality. In the age of high-definition photography and video, achieving a camera-ready look requires professional makeup that is lightweight, flawlessly blended, and perfectly tailored to your unique features and style. With the proper products and application techniques, your face will stay fresh and smooth all day (and night) so you can relax and enjoy yourself – without constant touch-ups!
I am an award-winning, nationally published makeup artist trained in the art of high-definition airbrush makeup who is dedicated to helping everyday women (and men!) put their best faces forward for weddings, special events, & photography. Based in Western Massachusetts, I work on-location in Northampton, the Berkshires, Springfield, Boston, Hartford CT, Newport RI, Brattleboro VT, Manchester NH, and beyond. I also offer makeup lessons for those who wish to take their look to the next level!
As a professional artist with a flourishing media makeup career, I bring an editorial eye to every job that I do, and I don't fall back on a cookie-cutter look that doesn't suit the face (or the personality) that I'm working with. I work very collaboratively with clients to help them look and feel amazing from every angle and in every medium.
If you would like to look like the best version of your beautiful self, make the most of your investment in photography and video, and be able to relax and enjoy your wedding day (without having to worry about your makeup), contact me to inquire about your date.

Britpunk-inspired styled shoot at The Mount in Lenox MA
What would it look like if a pair of rough-around-the-edges, urbanite musician lovebirds got hitched in the bucolic, beautiful Berkshires? The Mount was the perfect fit for this styled shoot: not only are the house and grounds stunningly beautiful (even in February, when our shoot took place), but the theme of contrast is evident throughout Wharton's writing, as well as her own life. We were inspired to incorporate hints of an underground movement that sought to challenge the social elite (chiefly, the punk rock movement of 1970′s London) – and we like to think she'd approve!

Sweet, Dwellings was noice
Digging: Insides - Euphoria
Awesome. I missed Dwellings completely but I'm excited for this
song is good. i miss the vocal style from Dwellings though.
The track 'Waking Sleep' is really underwhelming after the first couple listens. I miss the really intelligible vocals and hard-rock style that Dwellings had, and the lyrics don't seem to have that same quality where they just hit you right in the chest like they did on Dwellings. This has its moments, but overall I'm feeling pretty meh
'The Pythia' is better, but it is still worse than anything on their last release.
? Earth Diver isnt a track. i havent listened to the whole album yet, but from what ive heard so far itll be a worthy addition to their discography. i dont think theyre ever gonna top Dwellings though.
Oh yeah, it was 'Waking Sleep'. Herp derp

National News
The identity of a United States spy who mysteriously landed in Wellington last year can be revealed as National Security Agency director General Keith Alexander.
The visit by the senior spook was so top secret that Prime Minister John Key repeatedly refused to name him. The four-star general sparked intrigue when his US army jet landed at the capital's airport late in November.
Mr Key, the minister in charge of intelligence services, initially denied knowledge of the plane, and, despite pledging to find out more, later refused to reveal the identity of the visitor.
Sources say General Alexander visits New Zealand up to four times a year, and Mr Key would have approved the visits.
The shadowy NSA is the US equivalent of the Government Communications Security Bureau. It monitors and analyses foreign communications and protects US government cyber-systems.
General Alexander, a former deputy chief of staff with the US army, is also director of the Pentagon's Cyber Command, which is to be expanded to tackle the growing threat from hackers.
Three years ago, news of another secret visit by General Alexander broke when a reporter spotted him entering a Wellington building accompanied by a security detail.
New Zealand belongs to the intelligence alliance Five Eyes with the US, Britain, Australia and Canada.
At the time, Mr Key said the visiting plane was not carrying officials to a Five Eyes meeting.
"If someone parks a US plane at Wellington Airport, in my opinion, that doesn't count as a secret," he told reporters.
When pressed about the visitor for two days, he agreed to check the paperwork.
Once he learned the identity of the jet passenger, he decided it was not in New Zealand's security interests to reveal it.
A spokeswoman for Mr Key said yesterday: "As the prime minister said last year, he doesn't track every official that comes to New Zealand and he did not believe it was in the public interest to talk about who was on the plane."
A spokesman for the US embassy declined to confirm General Alexander's visit.
The activities of intelligence agencies came under scrutiny last year when it emerged GCSB had been illegally spying on internet mogul Kim Dotcom. It sparked an internal review of the foreign spy agency.
