About The Open
THE OPEN is a worldwide search for the most inspiring photographers of our generation. It is an exposure powerhouse that connects photographers with a global audience. Photographers always retain 100% copyright control of their images.
THE OPEN was honoured to receive a very rare 'A' rating from PhotoShelter in 2013 and 2014, rising above National Geographic, PDN, Communication Arts and many more. It has been distinguished as "the most networked photo competition in the world" for its groundbreaking use of social media to give artists a global audience.
True to its name, THE OPEN welcomes all photographers. It is a search across six continents with a simple mission: discover the undiscovered; rediscover the established; bring the best photographers to the forefront.
Here's how it works: all images are displayed in real time on THE OPEN's gallery. Half of the 200 finalists are chosen by a judging panel comprised of some of the sharpest eyes in the photography business; the other half are chosen by open online voting fueled by the major social media platforms. From there, all finalist images are presented anonymously to a second panel of judges for a sealed-ballot vote for the category winners and Photographer of the Year.
THE OPEN is designed from the ground up to generate widespread exposure and business-building opportunities for photographers. It reaches photo lovers in 176 countries. It connects directly with 50,000+ creative industry professionals in North America, Europe, Latin America and Australia – art directors, photo editors, publishers and ad agencies – who tap into THE OPEN to discover new talent.
Come inside and be inspired by great photography from all around the world.

Ionizing radiation has been used in medicine for more than a century and has proven to be an essential component of modern medical diagnosis and treatment. The technology has made much progress in the past decades, in X-ray imaging through the development of digital and computerized technology, in nuclear medicine through the introduction of novel radioisotopes and techniques, and in radiotherapy through sophisticated computerized treatment planning and novel techniques for more precise delivery of the radiation to the tumour.
At the same time, ionizing radiation is a cause of concern because the exposure of the human body may cause health detriment. At present, the overall population exposure due to medical procedures hugely exceeds any other man-made exposure. The protection of the patients and other individuals exposed in medical practice, is therefore one of a main priority task for the European Commission under the Health and Safety Chapter of the Euratom Treaty.

I was still in high school when my first girlfriend showed me her gun collection. She was a Dirty Harry fan, and even had the same hair style. Her whole closet was full of weapons and ammo, but non of it turned me on. There really is something nasty about a chick with a pistol in her pants.

This study presents the design and performance of pilot scale constructed wetlands in treating a mild domestic wastewater generated from the Faculty of Engineering, Universiti Putra Malaysia. Three cells of subsurface constructed wetlands were built in equal dimensions, two cells were planted with Lepironia articulata, an indigenous Malaysian aquatic plant, while one cell was left unplanted to investigate the role of the plant in treatment process. Those cells were operated at four different hydraulic retention times in two phases ranged from 0.5 to 7 days. The results showed that the constructed wetlands were capable of removing about 56-77% of COD, 50-88% of TSS, 20-88% of TP, 27-96% of NH4+ and 99% of total coliforms numbers. Different hydraulic retention times caused significant effect on removal rate of COD, TP and NH4+, but not to TSS and total coliforms removal. The total number of coliforms was positively correlated with concentration of COD, TP and NH4+ in effluents. Planted wetland cells were superior in both NH4+ and TP removal to unplanted wetland cells.

TCF Bank Stadium to host Vikings if Dome not fixed
While repairing the roof by Monday could amount to a daunting task, getting TCF Bank Stadium ready is also a huge job. Bowman said there are 20-inch-deep snow drifts throughout much of the facility, and much of it would have to be removed by workers with shovels rather than by plows that might damage the stadium's floors.
Ellison said the Vikings agreed to pick up all the prelimary expenses, including plowing, as well as all expenses that would be involved in holding a game there. Ellison didn't know how much it would cost to remove the snow, but said he thought it would be considerable. The normal game day budget at the stadium is $250,000, he said.
The snow removal plan is to have groups of 100 workers, working four-hour shifts, for 16 hours a day. Right now, most of those workers are coming from temp agencies.
Officials also have to get the building ready, including the concessions, which are only designed to withstand mid-November temperatures. Ellison said officials would have to put Plexiglass covers over concession stands to trap heat inside.
It could also be a challenging experience for the players, because the field ground is not heated. But Ellison said he said he thinks it will be an exciting experience for the fans.
"I think they'll love outdoor football in Minnesota. I think it'll be a great experience for the fans," Ellison said.
TCF Bank Stadium has a seating capacity of about 50,000 - about 13,000 fewer seats than are available at the Metrodome for football games.

Immunomedics Announces Fiscal 2013 Results
MORRIS PLAINS, N.J., Aug. 22, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Immunomedics, Inc. (Nasdaq:IMMU), a biopharmaceutical company primarily focused on the development of monoclonal antibody-based products for the targeted treatment of cancer, autoimmune and other serious diseases, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. The Company also highlighted recent key developments and planned activities for its clinical pipeline.
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2013 Results
Total revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2013, which ended on June 30, 2013, were $1.4 million as compared to total revenues of $1.0 million for the same quarter last fiscal year. The increase of $0.4 million in total revenues this quarter was primarily due to a $0.5 million increase in research and development revenue from the increase in the number of National Cancer Institute grants as well as the timing of research activities.Net loss attributable to our stockholders this quarter was $7.7 million, or $0.09 per basic share, compared with a net loss attributable to our stockholders of $7.5 million, or $0.10 per basic share, for the same quarter in fiscal 2012. The increase in net loss this quarter was primarily due to $0.3 million higher cost in research and development from increased clinical trial expenses. Fiscal Year 2013 Results Total revenues for fiscal year 2013 were $5.0 million, as compared to $32.7 million for fiscal year 2012. The decrease of $27.7 million this fiscal year was primarily the result of $28.4 million of non-recurring license fee revenue from an amendment to the Licensing Agreement with UCB earned in fiscal year 2012. Net loss attributable to our stockholders for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 was $12.2 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, as compared to a net income attributable to our stockholders of $0.8 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, in fiscal year 2012. The change in net income of $13.0 million in fiscal 2013 was primarily due to the non-recurring license fee revenue from the UCB sublicensing amendment in fiscal 2012, partially offset in 2013 by the $16.7 million net proceeds from a settlement in our arbitration proceeding before the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority against a broker-dealer relating to our prior investment in certain securities, and $2.6 million in business insurance claims in fiscal 2013. In addition, in fiscal 2013 we incurred $4.3 million of higher research and development expenses.

Meet Borderlands 2's Krieg, he drives the poop train
Krieg, Borderlands 2's newest downloadable character, has some sort of odd affliction. Somewhere between his brain and his mouth, his intended words get replaced by phrases of utter insanity. At least he lives up to his namesake of "Psycho".
This is how we come to learn that Krieg has the shiniest meat bicycle. It's also how we find out that he's the conductor of the poop train. Sadly, it's never established if this fecal locomotive is figurative or literal.
I hope it's literal.

My boyfriend has size 12 feet. I'm worried these might be too small. Has anyone worn them on feet this large?
I just got the Extraordinarily Longer Thigh Highs and loved them so much that I immediately had to tell you about it. I, of course, love all the socks I order from you, but these are my favorite!! They are not only long enough for my mutant legs, they are also the softest, most lovely thigh highs I have ever worn! I love them so hard.

PUTEAUX, France, Dec. 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Following their recent successful rebranding, Havas Worldwide announced today that Matt Weiss will join the network as Global Chief Marketing Officer. In his new role, Weiss will work closely with key leaders across the Havas Worldwide network to drive growth for the agency and its clients. Based in the New York office, Weiss will officially begin his new role in January 2013.
"Matt joins our team at an exciting time for Havas Worldwide: We're coming off one of our strongest ever years for new business. T he rebrand ing has underscored our unique integrated structure and digital-at-the-core model while acting as a real growth accelerator ," said Havas CEO David Jones .

He has an impressive track record in winning new business, gets both brand and digital, and shares our enthusiasm for the enormous opportunity that the digital revolution presents to our clients and our own business.

Weiss joins the network just three months after Havas renamed its 316 offices to Havas Worldwide. This operation was a major success and drove momentum in the business around the world. In the last two months the company has won Louis Vuitton globally, Berluti globally, Diet Coke in Europe, the European Central Bank, and La Poste together with the global Unilever data business.Weiss replaces Naomi Troni, who was recently appointed CEO, Havas Worldwide Southeast Asia.

In taking this position Weiss commented, " I was drawn to the scope and scale of Havas Worldwide and their unique position as being one of the most agile, collaborative, and digitally innovative of all the global networks. Equally intriguing is their unique view of the changing marketing landscape - a deep understanding of how social media and corporate responsibility are intrinsically linked to drive business results for clients."

In that time he was credited with bringing significant wins to the agency such as Intel, Nikon, Verizon Wireless, Holiday Inn, and Weight Watchers, to name a few.

For four years he ran that business—first domestically and then globally—forming the founding US team credited with work that won almost every creative award in the business.

The Fashion Week Ubiquity Awards
In which we honor the celebrities who attended the most shows during Fashion Week.

In which we honor the celebrities who attended the most shows during Fashion Week.
Also, Irina Lazareanu works on music instead of walking shows.
No one took Sean's picture on the front row of Narciso Rodriguez, but plenty of ladies kissed his cheek.
And the best part? It's a romantic comedy.
And then the universe imploded.
Also, Anna Wintour visits the eating-disorder booth in the tents, and Eva Longoria Parker shills M&M's.
Avery has to move to Dallas for hockey and his business partner is moving to London. Tragic.
Also, Mr. Blackwell is ill, Custo Barcelona expands, and Sean Avery takes on Dallas in stylish shorts.
He explains that men should expose their legs because women do it, and because ladies love ogling men's ankles.
Avery was spotted schmoozing with editors and making them try on clothes in the 'Marie Claire' offices.
He even spent three days packing!
We called up some real ex-'Vogue' interns to find out how their experience at the magazine compared to Sean Avery's. Turns out, they don't compare!
It's superstar intern Sean Avery's second day guest-editing MensVogue.com and he's trying his hand at blogging!
He says he's going to all the shows and is most looking forward to Chanel because he hears it's the most "ridiculous."
As part of his internship, Avery is guest-editing Mensvogue.com this week, and he's kicking things off with a diary about what his experience has been like.
The hockey player and 'Vogue' intern is rumored to be starting a celebrity styling company with Lauryn Flynn, who just left Calvin Klein.
Roberto Cavalli might sell his company, Sean Avery will attend tonight's CFDA Awards, and Tommy Hilfiger reveals wedding details.
Sean Avery wrapped up the first week of his 'Vogue' internship today, where he's reportedly working on all sections of the magazine and attending edit meetings.
The New York Ranger will intern at 'Vogue' this summer, doing things like making copies and messengering gowns. WTF?

The Modernist House is a global survey of 100 houses, covering an astonishing array of architects, cultures, styles, materials and designs. This collection ranges from the iconic masterpieces of the early twentieth century to today - manifestations of this revolutionary movement. The houses are presented in chronological order and each entry features a full-page image with a short text describing the house, its designer and historical context.
This hardcover book measures 10 inches by 11½ inches. Published May 23, 2009.
Brand: Phaidon
Origin: Imported
Phaidon's empire of world-renowned books on food, architecture, fashion, design and travel complement the publisher's beginnings. Named after Socrates's pupil Phaedo, who was known for his discourses on immortality, this London-based publishing house got its start in 1923 as a producer of high quality, reasonably priced literature, philosophy, and history books. In 1936 it added art to its repertoire, publishing some of the first monographs of Van Gogh and Botticelli. All volumes pair erudite text with breathtaking photography; a perennial favorite is Phaidon's stunning, large-scale Atlas of 21st Century World Architecture.

|Suppose you have a $300,000. house, $100,000. mortgage the proceeds of which you used to pay for your owner-occupied home. While our U.S. friends can deduct their mortgage interest, we can't ... but we do get the capital gain free of tax, when we sell it.
Suppose you have $150,000. worth of non-RRSP investments.
Suppose you sell $100,000. value of investments, then use the money to pay off the mortgage (supposing that your contract permits it).
Then, make a new mortgage for $100,000. and use the proceeds to buy back the stocks that you just sold, or whatever other ones you choose, but not ones to put into an RRSP (and maybe not ones to put into the new Tax-Free Savings Accounts, either).
When you borrow to invest in non-RRSP assets ... the interest is deductible.
Last mortgage ... you used the money to pay for a house ... interest not deductible.
This mortgage ... you used the money to buy stocks (or, if you don't know how to manage the stocks yourself, to pay 2.5% or more per year to a mutual fund manager to run your mutual funds ... and he gets his, whether he makes anything for you or not) ... making the interest deductible.
There are costs associated with the selling and re-buying of the stocks, and for having the certificates of ownership registered and issued, if you want to use them as collateral to back the loan.
But don't borrow more than a quarter to a third of the value of the asset that suports the loan. Banks will usually lend up to 50% ... but if the stock prices drop, say 40%, as many did recently ... if you're near your limit, you have big-time trouble ... right here in River City!
Let's say you had $100. worth of stocks, the bank was willing to lend up to $50., maybe $60., so you borrowed $40.
Stock prices go down 40% ... the $100. value is now worth $60. ... so the bank will be willing to lend $30.00 ... and if you have to put up more asset or cash, they'll want some extra.
They want either about $25. - 30. more value in fresh stock certificates ... or they want a minimum of $10.00 cash to pay down your loan ... and they'll more likely ask for $12. - 15., to give some cushion.
And they want it today ... tomorrow at the latest.
Don't tie yourself into that kind of a box!!
Not ever!!
As I've said before ... learning how money works ... an interesting hobby ... that pays well.
ole joyful
P.S. Boss your Dollars ... or they'll boss you!

|Hi OJ,
Great tip... and perfectly applicable in the lower 48 (plus AK, HI, territories & district) as well! ;~)
Its all in "the papertrail."
Document that you've borrowed funds for the PURPOSE of investment, and 100% of the interest costs are deductible off THE TOP LINE (the gross revenues, not the net,) as a cost of business. This is without regard to what property you may choose to use as collateral for the loan (so a loan collateralized by stock, or a loan collateralized by your personal residence... BOTH enjoy 100% top-end deduction as a business expense against investment revenue, as long as the funds are used for investment.)
In the U.S.... although we have a traditional mortgage interest deduction for INCOME taxes when we use leverage for residential purchase (up to $1MM purchase money, and up to $100k cashout equity money...) the deduction is at a mirror percentage to our marginal income tax percentage...
This means that if you are in a 15% marginal income tax bracket, you get to reduce your taxes by 15 cents for each dollar of mortgage interest you pay.
If you are in a 25% marginal income tax bracket, you get to reduce your taxes by 25 cents for each dollar of mortgage interest you pay.
This applies to the interest you pay on any purchase money mortgage up to $1MM (interest on purchase leverage above $1MM isn't deductible at all.) IT also applies to interest you pay on equity cashout refinance money leverage up to $100,000 (any interest on equity loans without a defined investment reason greater than $100k is not deductible.)
HOWEVER.... as you just pointed out....
A) Cash in your market investments to liquidate,
In doing so;
ADD TO THIS... in the U.S. tax code there are also sometimes benefits for "booking losses" by selling an investment that is "down" and thereby formally recording the loss. Such "realized losses" can be used to offset other gains... and if you didn't prove the loss by the sale, you would suffer the loss anyway, yet STILL pay the tax on other upside gains.
Another strong example why the proper structuring of one's finances from the "big picture" holistic perspective is so critical.
"Divide and conquer" is a recipe for poverty in finance.

WHAAAT? SUNSHINE ISN'T WET! A June 2013 Trip Report!
Hi everyone! And welcome to my first trip report (but not my first trip!) We were there June 14-22, and there was some rain, some pain, some tours, and a good time was had by all! But first, a little background...
When I graduated from high school, my dad told me I could pick anywhere in the world to go to celebrate. I chose London and saw a bunch of places where the Harry Potter movies were filmed and got some culture and all that jazz. Fast forward three years, and now it's my sister's turn to graduate. So my dad gives her the same offer. He was practically begging her to pick Italy, but she didn't. Instead, she chose.....
As I said, this was faaaaar from our first trip. We've been going since before I could walk, and I was a CP back in 2011 so they came to visit me three or four times during those seven months. So we were prepared for the June heat, crowds, rain, lines, the whole shebang. But you'd think I'd be prepared for those goshdarn trolley tracks! I'm getting ahead of myself, though. How about some introductions?
First, there's me, Cali! I'm 21 years old, a theatre major at UNC-Wilmington, a College Program alumni, and a Disney fanatic. Half my wardrobe consists of Disney shirts, I've spent more money than I really care to think about on my pin collection, I'm pretty much always listening to Disney music, my backgrounds on my phone and laptop are Cinderella Castle... basically, I'm a Diser!
Favorite characters: Rapunzel, Tiana, Merida, the Cheshire Cat, Stitch, Crush, and especially ALL THE VILLAINS!
Favorite attraction: Splash Mountain
Favorite restaurant: The Liberty Tree Tavern
Favorite Disney movies: The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Tangled, and the Princess and the Frog
Now we have my DSis, Danielle. She's 17 years old, and this trip was to celebrate her high school graduation. In real life she tries to pretend she's too cool for Disney, but if I happen to be listening to Disney music or watching a Disney movie, she'll sit right down and know all the words, and she LOVES the parks and the princesses. She's planning on going to NC State and majoring in animal sciences, so the Backstage Safari tour was a MUST.
Favorite characters: Cinderella, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, Mickey Mouse, Belle, Rapunzel
Favorite attraction: Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Favorite restaurant: Cinderella's Royal Table and 50's Prime Time Cafe
Favorite Disney movies: Cinderella, Tangled, and the Pirates of the Caribbean
Finally, the parental units! My dad is... not into Disney. At all. He does enjoy some of the attractions, like the Laugh Floor, Rock N' Roller Coaster, and Splash Mountain, and he likes Eeyore, but for the most part, he's just along for the ride. He does pay for us to take all these magical trips though, so we've got to appreciate Mr. Grumpy Gills over here! My mom gets it, though. She LOVES being in Disney, and cried as much as I did when we had to leave! She's even considering naming our next dog Walt.
My mom's favorites:
Favorite characters: Mickey, Stitch, Ariel, Belle, Piglet
Favorite attraction: Rock N' Roller Coaster
Favorite restaurant: Liberty Tree Tavern or Cinderella's Royal Table
Favorite Disney movies: Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, Toy Story
SO now that all the housekeeping is out of the way, keep your hands, arms, feet, and legs inside the trip report, please watch your children, and enjoy my trip report!

Imgur was being stupid and not uploading half my pictures, but I got it working so let's do this thing! Also, I want to apologize for not doing a PTR. Danielle did most of the planning because it was her celebration trip and I just kinda went along for the ride.
Chapter 1: Danielle, You Just Graduated High School- What Are You Going To Do Next?
I tried to go to bed early the night before because we had a really early (8 AM) flight, but I ended up not sleeping at all. Too excited, I guess, and who can blame me? WE'RE GOING TO DISNEY! At 6 AM, I woke everybody else in the house up by blasting the Magic Kingdom Welcome Medley as loud as my phone could go, because it was time to get moving!
I'm so exciiiiited!
By the way, I have this weird little tradition of always wearing my hair in pigtails on the first day in Disney. I don't know why I do it either. But I do.
After double- and triple-checking our luggage, we were out the door and in the car at 6:30. Not too shabby, considering Danielle usually takes foreeeeeever to get out of bed.
During the drive, I got a little tangled up in my trip reporting
We got to Raleigh-Durham International at 7:00 and breezed through security in less than twenty minutes. This is one of the few things I like about living in a state that never has anything going on- the airport is quick and painless! We hung out in the airport lounge for a little bit for a quick bite to eat, and at 7:47, we were on the plane! Not long afterwards, we were airborne, and after countless losses on the iPhone version of Fix-it Felix Jr. (I am terrible at that game but I highly recommend it! It's free!), we disembarked at MCO at 9:16 in the morning! We took the fake monorail out of the gate, got slightly lost, went to the wrong baggage claim, went to the right baggage claim, rented a Chevy Captiva from the Hertz lot, and off we went!
Breakfast of champions.
Not sure if this is Raleigh or Orlando but have a picture of one airport or another
This is kind of a failure of a picture, but right between the Wendy's and the Walgreens is Vista Way, where I lived when I was a CP! I completely missed the actual complex, but I still felt it was necessary to post.
We knew there was no chance of our room being ready this early, so our first stop was Downtown Disney! We had a list of a few things that we wanted to get before we even left- among them an iPhone case, a small pin bag, and our princess crowns. They didn't have any iPhone cases we really loved, they were out of the pin bags, but we did get our crowns! I got Rapunzel, and Danielle got Cinderella. We asked the cashier to take the crowns off the little plastic card, and he bent mine all out of shape. After he did that, he had to go... somewhere to get Danielle's off the card (maybe the wire clipper things weren't working or something???) and took a solid twenty minutes to come back with her crown. It was ridiculous. But we got them! And man, nothing feels better than having people bow and call you "Your Majesty" or "Princess Rapunzel", lol!
How about some merch pics?
If I hadn't had my heart set on a Rapunzel crown, I would have gotten one of these. Villain hats!
Your carriage awaits, Princess Danielle!
Aloha Stitch!
After we finished in WoD, our stomachs were rumbling, but Dad deemed it too early for lunch. So, what to do? Danielle had the idea to go to Wetzel's Pretzels, so we did. While we were eating, we noticed that the volcano that houses Rainforest Cafe was erupting! Has it always done that and I just never noticed? Because it was SO COOL!
Pretty pretty princesses!
The volcano erupting.
I swear I had food pictures of the pretzels, but they're not here. Whoopsie.
Now that we'd shut up that annoying grumbling and made walking around a little more comfortable, the parental units took a bathroom break and Danielle and I danced over to the pin store (I love the Disney music in that area!). I finally found my small pin bag (side note: I have a huge, laptop sized one, but it wouldn't fit in my suitcase, but I wanted something a little more roomy than a lanyard to put all my traders that I bought on Amazon before I left. So I bought the wallet-sized one). I also eyed the CM's lanyards in the store, but I collect villain pins and nobody had any. So we met up with our parents in the Christmas shop. We tried to find a graduation Mickey ornament of some sort, but they didn't have any.
By this point, my dad decided it was an acceptable time for lunch, so we decided to drive over to the Yacht and Beach Club to see if we could get into somewhere me and Danielle have always wanted to try. The wait was 30 minutes, so we took our pager and went to explore the resorts.
NEXT: lunch and some more resort hopping!
ALSO, side note: my brand new camera decided it wasn't going to work for more than 10 minutes at a time even on a full battery and an empty memory card, so almost all the pictures are from my iPhone. Pardon the quality.

Chapter 2: Mexican Magic
Our buzzer went off about 25 minutes later, and we headed back to one of my dream restaurants in Disney:
It was so cute inside! Much smaller than I was imagining, but adorable, just like a 50's soda shop in the movies! Our waiter was a sweet older woman named Maria from Chihuahua, Mexico. She was very funny, friendly, and attentive, and she got a real kick out of our princess crowns! When Danielle asked for some ranch for her French fries, the words were hardly out of her mouth when Maria brought a little basket of salad dressings (including ranch) out of nowhere. Danielle said something along the lines of, "That was quick!" and Maria replied with a wink, "Mexican magic, princess!" It was such a fun moment, and a nice little touch of pixie dust to start off our trip!
And now for my favorite part of any trip report, FOOD PORN!
My burger- very tender and flavorful, and not very greasy, which is good because my stomach's a bit sensitive to grease. The fries were also very, very tasty! It was absolutely necessary to do that with my ketchup. Absolutely necessary.
Danielle's hot dog. She said it was delicious but I'm not sure how one differentiates between hot dogs. Unless they're from Casey's.
My mom's grilled cheese and tomato bisque. She liked one but not the other and I'm blanking on which was which. I'm pretty sure it was the sandwich she liked but not the soup.
My dad got the turkey club, but he sees food as fuel and doesn't really comment unless it's reeeeeeally good or reeeeeally bad so... there you go. Not sure what that is on the side. Watermelon, maybe?
My mom tried to talk us out of getting ice cream, but that's what B&C is famous for- that's their whole thing! So we all shared a Milky Way sundae. I forgot to take a picture of it because this family does [i]not[i] mess around with dessert! It was gone in like thirty seconds, and it was DELICIOUS! I hear a lot of talk about the No Way Jose and the kitchen sink (which, by the way, the table next to us ordered and omg) but not nearly enough about the Milky Way.
We were a bit messy. Oops.
After saying our thank yous and goodbyes to Maria, we headed out the door. At this point, we decided to see if our room at POP was ready, so we drove over there. Danielle and Dad sat down out of the way while Mom checked in, and I walked around the lobby area taking pictures.
Let's try that again.
This one was a total fluke. I thought for sure it was going to come out blurry or I was going to cut off the 90s because the car was still moving, but it came out much better than I'd even aimed for!
Mom checking in.
We'd requested either the 60's or 70's because they were close to the main building and the pool, and we ended up in the 70's!
We spent a few hours settling in after that. Danielle did some summer homework, my dad napped, my mom played Candy Crush, and I hung out on Tumblr on my laptop. Finally, I got my mom and sister to get up so we could continue our resort hopping at AoA! It was still under construction during my CP so I was really excited to see it!
NEXT: A lot of pictures of Danielle and I goofing around at AoA

Joining in. Congratulations on the graduation trip for your sister. We were just there in Disney the week before you. It was so hot but fun none the less. I hope you had a great vacation and I look forward to hearing all about it.

Chapter 3: A Couple of Real Characters
I managed to get my mom and sister up and moving, but my dad didn't want to wake up just yet, so we left him to nap and headed across the Generation Gap bridge to check out Art of Animation.
One side of the bridge
The other side of the bridge
First up, The Little Mermaid section!
Hello childhood hero! (my current favorite princesses weren't around when I was little)
Why, Eric? Run away with you? This is all so... so sudden!
I'm not entirely sure why I'm hugging the dinglehopper either. But I am.
Next was the Lion King.
Coolest playground ever. BE PREPAAAAARED. What you don't see in this picture is Danielle running around the bones like a child.
This picture is a spectacular failure and one of the highlights of the day Our mom was laughing really hard while trying to get Mufasa and us in the picture while we did... um... this. "IT'S THE CIRRRRCLE OF LIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIFE- ohcrapdanielleyou'reheavyeeeeurrrrghouchnoEEEEK!"
I'm not entirely sure what Danielle's doing but I'm sure it has something to do with the fact that she was scared of Rafiki when she was little. And he hit me in the head with his staff :C
MOVING SWIFTLY ON... Finding Nemo!
Gimme some fin... DUUUUUUDE! Sidenote: Crush is my favorite and I love him <3
Pretty sure I'm talking or laughing here. But Squirt is Danielle's favorite.
I found Nemo! ... and Marlin!
All that silliness had worked up a sweat and a heckuva thirst, so we headed into the lobby area to check it out, soak up some AC, and get a few bottles of water. While we were in there, Danielle got a phone call from the movie theatre where she works. While we were waiting for her to finish up, I took some pictures.
It didn't turn out well because, again, I was working with my iPhone camera because my brand new point and shoot was refusing to work (I'd turn it on, and not ten minutes later it would tell me Battery Exhausted. I'd plug it into my computer to charge, and it would tell me I still had 85% battery left). But this cell was signed by Jodi Benson, who you may know is the voice of Ariel!
Anyway, Danielle got done with her phone call, and came back to us in tears. Uh-oh. Turns out, she'd been scheduled to work that day, and had only requested off the 15-22! She was told she'd probably be fired for the no-call no-show (even though you're not actually allowed to call in sick at her work? Idk, her work has gotten insanely strict over the past two years considering it's mostly staffed by high school students). But not to worry! She dropped by to talk to her boss the night we came back- she wasn't fired!

Chapter 4: The Amazing Color-Changing Tables
Mom and I managed to console Danielle, and we sat down to get hydrated in Landscape of Flavors. I only got one picture for some reason and it came out blurry. But here you go.
We went back out into the inferno to finish off with the last section of the resort- Cars! Neither of us is a huge fan of this movie, but we had fun nonetheless. The theming is fantastic!
As I said, I don't like this movie, but Mater's pretty great!
It took us a ridiculously long time to find Lightning. I know Danielle's trying to look like a pin-up girl and... I have no idea what I'm doing, lol.
We headed back to Pop to get my dad before our ADR at Bongo's, and took some pictures on the way back to the room.
I absolutely love this movie <3
As I said, we were in the 70's. Clearly we got a bit lost.
So, we drove back to DTD's Westside and checked in. We were told it would be a five minute wait, but unlike the last time we went to Bongo's and had to wait for two hours, it actually was five minutes!
I think I accidentally deleted my video of it, but the tables in Bongo's CHANGE COLOR! The green mosaic under this napkin is lit up from underneath, and it turns from green to blue to red. It was AWESOME. Or maybe I'm just easily amused.
Anyway, onto the food!
I got the Milanese chicken breast, which tastes a lot like chicken parmesan only the sauce is more salsa-like and it's served with rice instead of pasta, and I think it's a different kind of cheese. I've had it all three times I've been there and it's my FAVORITE. I especially love the fried sweet plantains. YUM.
Danielle got bruschetta that was supposed to come with steak, but she doesn't like red meat (not a vegetarian, not allergic, just doesn't like it) so she substituted chicken. She had some trouble getting it into her mouth, but she said it was good.
Both parents got the shredded chicken breast and I didn't hear a review. Betty, our server, said it was one of Bongo's specialties and I didn't hear any complaints so I assume it was good! AND LOOK THE TABLE'S RED NOW.
Our parents also shared some kind of enormous pineapple martini that my mom liked but my dad found too sweet. Notice half the salt is missing. My dad was licking it off for... some reason.
We were all stuffed, which was disappointing because I really wanted to have dessert at Ghihardelli, but oh well. We drove out of the Disney bubble to Gooding's to pick up some supplies we forgot (toothbrushes, razors, and the like).
Then it was off to the monorail resorts for some more resort hopping! First off, the Poly.
This is really blurry but I loved this display, it's adorable.
I'm trying to be Stitch or something. I'm a dork okay
And now I'm going to eat your soul. Really, though, I don't know why I look so scary here.
Then we took the monorail over to the GF to look around and shop. We skipped the Contemporary because we'd stayed there at the end of my CP and... frankly, we weren't impressed. It wasn't terrible, it just wasn't awesome, you know?
Did I mention that I adore the show Once Upon a Time? And one only has to mention chipped cups to me before I start crying over Rumpel and Belle? ... yeah. This had to happen.
We went back to the Poly around 9 and settled in on the beach with some drinks and snacks to watch Wishes from the beach! It was amazing It would have been better if they piped in the music onto the beach, but you could kind of hear parts of it from the MK and it was enough for me to follow along (not that I know the whole show by heart or anything....). No pictures because none of them were really turning out, unfortunately.
After the fireworks, though, my dad somehow managed to put Disneyland into his GPS. As in, California. We were outside WDW by the time we figured it out, and drove around in circles for quite a while before finally making it back to Pop. Then we got lost again, walked around the resort for a while, finally got back to our room, and crashed at 11:30. The next day, we got to go to our first park and our first tour!
Moral of the story, kids: my family needs to work on our sense of direction.

Sorry for not updating in a few days- there's two reasons for it. One, Danielle got sick towards the end of our trip and I caught it when we came back. Just a cold, but still, I've been pretty wiped out. The second reason's name is Luna!
She's a 3-month-old rescued hound/pointer mix. Technically, she's my mom's dog to keep her company while Danielle and I are away at college and my dad's on business trips, but I've been helping take care of her. Also, you can't see it in the pictures, but she has one brown eye and one blue eye, which freaks my dad out, but the rest of us think it's awesome!
Anyway, I should be able to write up an update later tonight! See you then!

I have a niece who is a rising Junior at UNC-W, she is a nursing major. We were also at WDW the week you were! Loving your trip report so far, your pictures are great! So glad to hear someone else say CR is no big deal. Did not love that resort. Looking forward to more!!

Okay so I lied about having an update two nights ago. I lied a lot. Buuut I've managed to get my mom to watch her own puppy so here's an update!
Chapter 5: So New! So Exciting!
We were up bright and early at 6:30 to head to our first park of the trip- Magic Kingdom, of course! Only way to start for us It was also the first of three tours: Keys to the Kingdom!
You can't see mine at all, but we made a few T-shirts for the trip! They're all Mickey heads- Danielle's is based off of Cinderella, mine is Rapunzel, and our mom's is the Evil Queen (she chose it I swear). I found a Mickey head template on Google and colored them in with the details on MS Paint.
ANYWAY. We hopped on the monorail at 7:19, and got a car all to ourselves. I proceeded to recite the entire spiel because I'm cool like that, and we got there more than an hour early for... some reason.
Look at those skies
We checked in and got our complimentary waters, nametags, and hearing devices. While we waited for the tour to begin, Mom picked up some Minnie's Bake Shop sesame sticks and animal crackers from the Newsstand and we had them for breakfast. I wandered around Town Square for a little bit, taking an obscene amount of pictures that I won't spam this update with because of the image limit, and I ran into this fine gentleman!
The Mayor of Main Street had found us in the Main Street Bakery during one of my family's visits during my college program, and we thought that was the coolest thing! Unfortunately, we didn't get any photos of it then, so we rectified it this time around! We also talked to one of the women taking surveys about our trip for a while about how we moved from PA to NC and she moved from Wisconsin to Florida, and the tradeoff between the cold and the heat.
Finally, Chris from Chicago came out and gathered the tour group and it was on with the show. There were no photos allowed (actually, Chris forgot to mention that and I tried to take pictures of the Main Street buildings while we walked and got in trouble. Oops. I knew there was no photography backstage, but I didn't realize it was the same during the onstage portion. ).
Without giving too much away, Keys to the Kingdom was REALLY interesting! Even though I was a CP, I only knew a little bit of what he told us (probably because I worked at Epcot and not the MK). We learned a whole lot of trivia about the parks and the company, rode Jungle Cruise with commentary by the tour guide instead of the skipper and Haunted Mansion. He showed us some of backstage areas including the Utilidors and the place where the parade floats are kept (incidentally, it just hit me that our group may have been some of the last to see the floats for Spectro ).
The tour covered lunch at CHH, and uncovered one of my family's favorite secrets- the second floor. I wasn't sure if I could take pictures during the break so I didn't, but if anyone cares, Danielle and I both got chicken nuggets, Mom got the garden chicken salad, and Dad got the Anchors Aweigh. At the very end of the tour, we gathered under the Train Station to say our goodbyes, and Chris told us this really sad but heartwarming story about how his mother had listened to the Wishes soundtrack throughout her cancer treatment, and the first thing she did after she was declared cancer-free was come to WDW and see it in person. I'm a terrible storyteller, but... we were all crying. Definitely worth the money, take the tour
We were also given exclusive pins that I forgot to photograph. I also can't find mine at the moment so here's a picture from Google:
After the tour, we found a Hidden Mickey! Only in Disney would they plan the shape and position of a STREET LAMP for the shape of the shadow they'd cast, amirite?
That discovery made, we decided it was high time to start our discovery of New Fantasyland! We walked through the BatB section (we'd be back... TERRIBLY EXECUTED FORESHADOWING)
(Still bummed out we didn't really go in here. I wanted to try LeFou's brew so badly!)
And then it was time for the first ride of the trip, our first ride ever on Under the Sea: Journey of the Little Mermaid!
I didn't take any pictures because I wanted to sit back and enjoy the ride, but I LOVED IT! It was a much better interpretation of one of my favorite movies than VotLM- Danielle and I were singing along the whole time. My favorite part was Ursula (have I mentioned I love villains? 'Cause I love villains)- that animatronic and the effects in her crystal ball were incredible!
Our next stop was Storybrooke Circus. We didn't spend a lot of time here because I was the only one with any interest in Dumbo and my dad is vehemently against character M&Gs or shopping as anything other than a way to escape rain However, Danielle was absolutely devastated when she heard they were taking away Toontown because the Barnstormer is one of her all-time favorite rides anywhere. She was so excited when she heard they were just retheming it and it was back in business. When we saw it was a 15-minute wait, we couldn't just walk past it! Again, I was too busy enjoying the ride to actually take pictures (not to mention that the ride itself's not that photogenic), but here's one from the queue.
We were getting a bit tired at this point, so we decided to save the rest- and by the rest, I mean the meat of the BatB stuff and the TAAAAAAANGLED BAAAAATHROOOOOOMS (yes that was necessary) for a little bit later. We took the train back to the front and were back at POP for our afternoon break at 3:30. While my parents and sister were sleeping and I was uploading my pictures to my computer to get them off my phone, those nasty grey skies opened up and the rain rain rain came down down down! But was that entirely a bad thing....?
Stay tuned!

I have been dreading this my whole life. I need to follow a budget so I can have a substantial savings account instead of the $80.01 I have in there now. I spend too much money on restaurants and not enough on my retirement.
socialgoals is feeling positive toward the end of the year
Maybe don't worry about budgeting and instead just figure out some small amount of money to throw into savings and into retirement BEFORE it reaches your checking account. It's so much easier that way. Then every couple of months, up the amount a bit if it feels comfortable.

"Super easy & mmmmmmmm! I used turkey sausage & for my "dash of hot sauce" I used a sweet habanero sauce I have - this was so quick to make & turned out awesome! Love it! Will use again for sure!"
"These were great! So looking forward to making them again! The one small thing I changed was used butter & olive oil instead of veggie oil. I also had the advantage of fresh ground pork butchered right off the farm, but I really enjoyed this recipe! Thanks!"
"These were pretty good.... I used ground turkey because I'm not a big beef fan... but I'm guessing they would've turned out much better with the chicken, I'll have to try them again!"
"This would be better if the biscuits were more crunchy like a real crust... it was probably me but just turned out a little soggy"
"I did exactly what the recipe said & I just don't think it was thick enough... the flavor was pretty good...."
"These were okay... and probably very good to those who don't eat toooo much cheese! We do & so I needed to add quite a bit more than the recipe called for!"
"Very good! I actually used the Hidden Valley Ranch Fiesta Style to give it a kick.... I also had some left over & hit it up in the microwave a few secs the next day for a snack... mmmmm..."
"These were pretty good! Only wrong thing I did was not let them settle on paper towels first to let some grease off them.... otherwise, I will totally make them again!"

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) _ Kansas has paid two private law firms more than $913,000 to help it defend anti-abortion laws enacted since conservative Republican Gov. Sam Brownback took office.
The attorney general's office disclosed the figures in response to requests from The Associated Press. The payments included $126,000 for the defense of new restrictions enacted earlier this year.
President and CEO Peter Brownlie of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri on Monday called the spending ``a travesty.''
But Mary Kay Culp of Kansans for Life says it's ridiculous to blame abortion opponents for the spending when abortion providers are filing the lawsuits.
Since Brownback took office in January 2011, legislators have approved regulations specifically for abortion providers and tighter limits on late-term abortions. They've restricted on private health insurance coverage for terminating pregnancies.

Roxbury homes saved
10 departments respond to fire on ridge
ROXBURY — Firefighters from 10 departments battled a forest fire stretching across 3 acres behind houses on South Street, Apple Lane and Rocky Mountain Road on Wednesday.
"We saved a lot of houses today," said Southbury Training School firefighter Bill McAllister, one of the first to respond to the alarm at 3:04 p.m.

by Mark Nestmann: A
Bull Market in Lead Vests?
Ah, technology!
It makes life so much easier…but also opens the door for privacy
intrusions you may have never dreamed about.
A case in point
is the ubiquitous "smartphone." Your smartphone does everything
a personal computer can do, and more. Your smartphone sends and
receives e-mail, browses the Web, and takes pictures and movies.
Of course, it also functions as a cell phone, sending and receiving
phone calls and text messages.
However, most
smartphone users haven't taken even the most basic precautions
to protect themselves from uninvited intruders. For instance, if
you have an Android phone, there's a convenient feature that
allows you to retrieve you voice mails simply by having the voice
mailbox match your phone's caller ID.
only one problem: it's easy to spoof caller IDs using an application
like Spoofcard. Someone
using Spoofcard can call your voice mail service using your caller
ID and listen to your voice mail messages. The intruder can even
delete the messages before you have a chance to listen to them.
It's easy to assign your voice mailbox a password, but many
Android users apparently don't bother with this precaution.
But of all
smartphones, it's the ubiquitous iPhone that's probably
most vulnerable to intrusion, especially if it's lost or stolen
– or if you're arrested. On the iPhone 3G a thief –
or cop – can recover all your "keystrokes," e-mail,
phone calls, voicemails, even your deleted messages. And while this
data is supposedly encrypted, all of it is recoverable without typing
in your passphrase. (Click here
to see how to do it.) The iPhone 4 is supposedly more secure; apparently
Apple is taking this vulnerability seriously.
Perhaps the
most secure smartphone is the Blackberry. It's so secure, in
fact, that governments worldwide are demanding that the Blackberry's
manufacturer, Research in Motion, make it easier to monitor. If
you're concerned about smartphone security – buy a Blackberry!
