[ Poznań / Wrocław ]
I'm Anna - better known as cristii .
I'm interested in photomanipulation art and graphic - most of the works that I did self-study (I am a self taught).
My style can be described as the beauty in darkness.
I've graduated from Art School in Wrocław (graphic designer course) and Pedagogy (art therapy) at Opole University ~Bachelor in 2013.
Currently I study at Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań (Master of Art - Pedagogy - Sociotherapy) and work at Cinema
I try to earn some money for my own art bussines - not exactly with photomanipulation but some own drawing and design
In free time I like drawing, play board games and travel to conventions or concert.

I finally received my CBST yesterday evening (5 1/2 week wait time ) so now I am able to carry the G26 I purchased a week ago. I have to say I am definitely a Glock fan now! Range visits and defensive shooting practices have been good so far with the new EDC. Previous carry gun was a Stoeger Cougar 9mm, but that will now stay home and make range trips with me as well. I know there are volumes of information about what the G26 is like, so I won't expound on them here - but WOW, what a great firearm! Also, it is amazingly easy to conceal in combination with the Supertuck. Will try to post up some pics of the new rig over the weekend.
A&G Belt (1.5'' Horsehide) + CBST (Horsehide w/ Combat Cut) + Glock 26 = My ideal carry setup.

You have a computer using Windows 7. You also are using a third-party credential provider, such as a fingerprint reader, to provide alternate methods of logon.
Depending on the credential provider, you may notice that some of the text (for example, "swipe finger to logon") is slightly truncated at the bottom. This may occur more frequently when using certain localized languages, such as Korean, Japanese, or Chinese.
User tiles in the Windows 7 logon user interface are a fixed size. In some cases, developers creating third-party credential providers may display text which is slightly too large to fit in the user tile. If this occurs, the text may appear truncated on the screen.

A risk I'm willing to take. I was short on midfielders, long on defenders. Just crossing my fingers hoping that the lineup AVB put out was his preferred lineup with all the new toys at his disposal now. However, with such a stacked squad, its inevitable that GS will sit a good bit. Nonetheless, last week he certainly showed that he deserves a run of a few games to prove himself. We'll see.

By Lee Barken, IT practice leader at Haskell & White, LLP
Wish you were here? Allow me to draw a picture.
We're now well into week two of the COP-15 Climate Summit in Copenhagen and the diplomats, activists and media representatives are fully engulfed in a whirlwind of activity. Beyond the maze of the Bella Center's million square feet, 60 meeting rooms and winding pathways lies another maze comprised of diplomatic maneuvering, backroom gamesmanship and good old-fashioned guerrilla marketing. Knowing where to go and what to do depends mostly on who you are and why you are here.
In a nutshell, COP-15 is an oversized bundle of energy that can best be described as "organized chaos." It's helpful if you think of it as two different conferences wrapped up in one. The first conference is for the people who make decisions. The other is for people who are trying to influence the people who are making the decisions.
What Color Is Your Parachute?
The first strategy to understand at COP-15 is the game of name badge color-coding.
Yellow badges belong to members of non-governmental organizations (NGOs), such as a non-profit forestry alliance, a youth organization or some other kind of other advocacy group. These folks number in the thousands—22,000 have registered. They spend each day running around the halls trying to make sure their presence is felt and their message is heard. An entire pavilion is dedicated to NGOs who each have their own booth and literature which they distribute. On the outer perimeter of the NGO pavilion is a series of large conference rooms where these groups give presentations that are open to anyone and everyone who will listen.
The NGOs have come to Copenhagen with a wide range of group sizes and political savvy. Some are small and disorganized. However, others are coordinated, hold twice daily status meetings and mobilize hundreds of people who roam the halls in matching T-Shirts and marketing literature. As you might imagine, many of the participants at the foot-soldier level are college age or younger.
Pink badges are issued to those within a "party to an agreement", a.k.a. an official country delegation. Pink badge-holders are in a separate wing, holding dozens of simultaneous meetings in various meeting rooms. Some rooms are small and hold a few dozen, while other rooms are enormous, holding several hundred.
Most rooms are equipped with individual "push to talk" microphones at each station. The pink badges hold closed meetings that are only open to other pink badges. Sometimes there are subgroup closed meetings that are only open to certain groups of pink badges. For example, closed meetings are held by "AOSIS," the Alliance of Small Island States" and the "G77 + China." These are essentially lobbying groups that have figured out that they will have more impact as a team and then band together to improve their chances of moving forward a shared agenda. This is also known as strength in numbers.
Finally, members of the media are issued an orange pass. COP-15 closed the press registration when it hit 5,000 people and it is rumored that a wait list includes another 10,000 who would like to run around with an orange badge. Press organizations from around the world have converged on the scene to report news and provide updates to their readers and viewers.
All the World's a Stage…
Here's how the COP-15 dynamic works: Pink badges try to get work done, move their agendas forward and lobby each other for changes to document language. Orange badges try to find something interesting or salacious to report on. Yellow badges run around trying to get attention from both groups.
In one particularly enlightening conversation with a college-age NGO volunteer, I learned that her goal was to intercept pink badges walking around the Bella Center, sitting for lunch or just waiting in a line and then present them with a pamphlet and share the story of the NGO.
Other yellow badges are focused on media attention and utilize every opportunity to descend upon the orange badges with a story pitch or other promotional activity. A popular strategy is for yellow badges to position themselves directly outside the press room (which they are not allowed to enter) and try to catch media folks entering or exiting.
In the connecting corridor between the NGO pavilion and the Publication Distribution Center (the first place you go each morning to pick up your copy of the "Daily Programme") is an area designated specifically for publicity stunts. Listed simply in the Daily Programme under "Other Events," the NGOs schedule mini-presentations where they stage skits with dramatic flair.
These productions always draw a crowd of curious onlookers who take photographs with their mobile phones and camcorders. As you can imagine, they are usually quite entertaining and include elaborate, costumes, props and antics such as a team of performers dressed up as doctors trying to save 10 foot half-inflated earth. One person shouts "Clear," while charging up the defibrillator paddles and attaching them to the limp planet. Another person holds up a sign advocating a particular climate change strategy.
A large number of yellow badges think they're on some kind of altruistic Disneyland vacation. It's like spring break for people trying to save the planet. While you may question their effectiveness, you have to admire their passion.
On the other end of the spectrum, the tactics of the more politically sophisticated NGOs are impressive. Many are well connected and can frequently be seen in conversation with pink badges and reviewing or marking up pages of texts.
Center of Attention
All of this hyper-attention seeking is a major cause of the chaos. Imagine a sprawling convention center with 15,000 people all running around shouting "Look at me!" Is all of this advocacy work really improving or hindering the process? Is it working? On a bus ride at the end of a long day of activities, I happened to sit next to a member of the UN support staff (blue badges) who was serving as an interpreter. I asked him if these NGOs were making any difference. After all, if the pink badges are top notch attorneys and skilled negotiators, did he really think that some college kid waving a flyer around was really going to change anybody's position?
His response surprised me. While most advanced countries are sending top notch negotiators, there are some less wealthy countries in attendance that simply lack the resources and talent to mount a strong policy agenda. Some of these countries have populations of 10,000 or fewer people, so you have to imagine that their "best of the best" pole vaulter, chess player or climate change negotiator may feel like a small fish in a big pond.
At the end of the day, it's hard to say if the activities of the NGOs are having an impact. While some smaller countries may be influenced, it's unlikely that the negotiating positions of the large industrial countries are being shaped by sideshow antics.
On the other hand, since there are so many reputable media outlets in one location, it's an alluring opportunity to reach the masses and get your message "out there." The issue is that so many people are competing for attention from the orange badges that you end up with a high noise ratio and breaking through the clutter becomes a real challenge.
False Alarms
The other problem, as observed during the first few days of the conference, is that not having something newsworthy to write about is a recipe for disaster. On a slow news day, writers and producers get tense and trigger happy. On day 3, the news was flowing about details of a "secret agreement" circulating called the Danish Text. This "closed door agreement" included terms very unfavorable to less wealthy countries and a suggestion to link the process more closely with the world bank and break away from the United Nations.
As it turned out, the story was a non-story as the text was one of many drafts that had been made public over a week ago. There were no secret meetings and nothing new in the text that hadn't already been disclosed. Reports of a "leak" were overblown and suggest that with nothing sensational to report, the risk of misinformation wildfires will always go up a couple notches.
Closed Meetings and Open Content
It's interesting to note that although the yellow badges cannot attend the pink badge or orange badge closed meetings, many of those sessions are webcast and archived. You have to wonder why these meeting are closed if the content is later made public and open to the world? I can only imagine what kind of disruptive "episode" occurred in the past that resulted in the decision to exclude yellow badges from negotiating sessions and press conferences.
In addition, as the conference begins to wind down, the number of yellow badges will be restricted. On Tuesday of the 2nd week, yellow badge allowances were cut in half. On Thursday, only 1,000 will be allowed. By Friday, that number will drop to 90.
World Leaders Arrive
Starting Tuesday evening, world leaders will begin arriving in Copenhagen. Of the nearly 200 participating countries, over 130 have their heads of state in attendance. While the news from Copenhagen has been largely disappointing, one has to wonder if the arrival of world leaders will have a positive influence on the momentum of the climate talks.
After all, world leaders like to be associated with successes. Coming to Copenhagen and being branded with a failure will not play well on the world stage. As the number of dignitaries in the Bella Center slowly increases, the hopes are high and the stakes are higher.

What are Odysseus's strengths and weakness and how do they show on Helios's Island?
1 Answer | Add Yours
Odysseus is a very curious, strong, resourceful, smart, and determined man. That said, he is also stubborn, defiant, proud, and full of hubris, all traits which often get him in trouble.
Odysseus was warned by Circe to stay away from Helios' island. However, his men's complaints and his curiosity and defiance got the better of him, and he allowed his men to land the ship there. Once on the sun god's island, Odyseus' men disobeyed him and ate the god's cattle. Zeus then hurled a thunderbolt at their ship and it is only through Odysseus determination and strength that he survived.

Homeless Woman Set Ablaze In Los Angeles
Los Angeles police have arrested a man for allegedly setting a 67-year-old homeless woman on fire as she was sleeping on a bus bench.
Dennis Petillo, 24, was arrested Thursday and booked for investigation of attempted murder. He is being held on $500,000 (£310,000) bail.
Police say the attack occurred shortly after 1am outside a Walgreens drug store in Van Nuys, northwest of downtown Los Angeles.
A witness said he saw a man come out of the store and pour something on the woman before striking a match and setting her ablaze.
The witness told reporters he called 911 and then followed Petillo until police arrived and arrested him.
The woman was taken to hospital and is listed in critical condition.
Last week, a 55-year-old man was set on fire as he slept outside a doughnut shop in southern Los Angeles County. No one has been arrested.

This sounds like it has the potential to be a very beneficial bill. Nature-deficit disorder is serious, and what better way to aid this than by in-school outdoor activities. As our children are spending more time indoors playing video games or being mesmerized by the television, they may only get this kind of "therapy" at school. Not only will they be outside, but thinking critically about what humans are doing to the environment. The confines of a secure home does not grant them this opportunity. And, clearly, this is leading to a populace that increasingly cannot critically think and are some of the poorest educated in science in the developed world. Time to change!
additionally, environmental education is not just about science – it easily extends into and can accentuate studies of math, reading, history, economics, you name it. more often than not, environmental education increases skills in all of these areas, because the environment is something that surrounds us and is tangible and accessible, that we can experience for ourselves, all of which helps to increase the understanding and apply lessons to the real world of abstract topics like, e.g., math.
Nowhere in the Constitution does it give the right for the federal government to control education policy.. but secondly, NCLB is not about climate education, but about forcing schools to teach for the test… NOT GOOD AT ALL… if we want to truly bring up bright minds in this country, then repealing NCLB is our best option, not amending it… We need to teach people to go into some of the critical fields: science, tech, math, etc… NCLB keeps the smartest kids from reaching higher goals and has the smartest ones just taught well enough to do well on the NCLB test, not for things they will need to know or be later tested on in college.. This should be struck down immediately, alongside NCLB as a whole.
There are entirely too many kids in high school who can barely read and do basic math. Instead of concentrating on the environment at a young age, kids should be encouraged to learn the basics. Environment can be an elective in high school.
no child left inside is not about climate change education – nowhere in this bill or the overview of it are the words "climate change" written. the "environment" encompasses water, air, soil/land, plants, animals, etc. – all things that we humans depend on for our very existence. this bill and the environmental education/literacy it is promoting is not about "indoctrinating" our children in any way, shpae or form – it is about getting them to understand the interconnectedness of earth's systems and, as such, understand and internalize the value of the environment, the lack of which has lead us to to decimate our shared, global commons, e.g., our forests, our fish stocks, our water supplies. futhermore, this nation was founded with the help of a rugged, pioneering, wilderness-oriented mindset – getting students to appreciate our environment, especially through hands-on learning and experience in the great outdoors, is one of the best ways to reconnect our nation with its past ideals.
Actually, if you take a look, it's more a science education bill disguised as an Environmental Bill. Personally, I support teaching students about things like Biology and Environmental Sciences. That's where jobs are going, science backgrounds. Currently the US lags behind the world in Science Education, that means that jobs go elsewhere. How are we ever going to form a healthy economy that doesn't drive itself into the ground every few years if all the jobs go elsewhere because American Students aren't educated enough to take them?
Sounds like more indoctrination to me. Govt needs to get out of the schools and let the teachers teach and run their classrooms.
Oh no! The sky is falling and the temperature is sky rocketing! If we don't indoctrinate these kids with delusions of global warming, we are all doomed! I must say that FallenMorgan said it to the "T"
Public schools do not do a good job of teaching your children how to read, write, do math and revised American history. You have to be stuck on stupid to teach more illiteracy and supplant it with this garbage.
More Pork for the Eco-Industrial Complex.
Isn't that what school systems are for? to make sure teachers are teaching the right things? Why do they get payed for that if the federal government does it instead?
The comments here and lack of support on this bill from the Right is indicitve of the right-wing conservative stance against education, intellectualism, and just good old fasion COMMON SENSE.
I agree. Of course, on the other hand, no one would take it unless they already knew they wanted to do that for a living. Nobody wants to learn math until they know what it's good for, so we might as well tell them. Priorities are important, though.
While I agree that states' rights are important, the federal government has its fingers in education via No Child Left Behind.
I'm wondering how anyone could possibly oppose this bill. Students receive a better education about very real environmental issues… which would most certainly lead to them taking action to stop harming the environment, from starting at home to thinking critically about the bigger issues we face. How could this be a bad thing? I'd like someone to answer me that. How could this possibly do HARM?
Good in theory, but No Child Left Behind needs to be immediately repealed and teachers need to be given control of their classrooms. If science teachers want to meet tomorrow's environmental needs by working with it in the classroom, they should be able to with or without this bill.
Get the Fed. Gov. out of education and back to something that they have constitutional powers to do such as balance the budget or manage the two wars we are losing.
Mind reading the Tenth Amendment? What part of the Constitution gives education to the federal government?

Anyone tried baking with the new sweetener Vivente?
We really love Vivente in our coffee, but not sure about baking with it. Also wondering if any diabetics online have tested their blood glucose after using it. I really like that it has no aftertaste. If I try baking with it before anyone posts, I'll let you know how it goes but don't have the ingredients on hand right now to make anything right now to see. Hope everyone is doing well. :)
I've never heard of it - but just looked it up based on your review.
I hate when a company says it's a "proprietary blend" - and doesn't tell you what is actually IN it. :annoyed:
It DOES make me suspicious that it's "0 glycemic index" and has an agave-based inulin.
Agave SYRUP is higher in fructose than HFCS - not sure about the inulin produced from it?
Normally, inulin gives me extreme gastric distress and renders me unfit for human companionship - even the cats leave the room if I've been eating that stuff.
NOW - I am not gonna pass judgment on THIS particular product because my brief look at their website didn't give me enough info to go on. It certainly SOUNDS interesting but I'd want to know a lot more before I purchased it. I got really burned on agave syrup - 0 glycemic index, safe for diabetics, blah blah blah - and I bought a CASE of it! THEN I find out it's so high in fructose. The liver can readily convert fructose to fat for storage so I ditched the rest of the syrup I still had left. :(
Yeah, I sound like Debbie Downer :laugh: but I just want all the info before I decide to try it. I'm always on the lookout for another good sweetener for my LC baking arsenal!
Thanks Charski. I probably got overly excited about it before doing any research as I have IBS and some of the reviews said it was good for the digestive system. We're still on our first box, and none of us have had any stomach issues. I did the same thing with agave, and eventually threw away the bottle we bought after it sat in the pantry forever. I have taken inulin before w/o problems, but now that you mention it, I'm wondering if it's not truly 0 glycemic index. I'll find out more about it before buying another box. I'm not crazy about Stevia, and don't like using Splenda, so hoping this would be a good option. I think it's relatively new, so the jury's still out. Thanks so much for responding!!! Happy lowcarbing!!
You're welcome, and remember - this is ONLY my opinion, based on what I see! :) Or have experienced, i.e., the inulin syndrome! LOL!
Have you tried erythritol or xylitol? They're good sweeteners, I like the Truvia packets to carry with me. Like most non-sugar sweetener substitutes, they do better in baking when you combine 2 or more of them.
Have you tried the NuNaturals NuStevia No Carbs products? I really like those! They are available in packets, tablets, and a bulk plastic bottle. I have tried and hated SO many stevia products, but this is a good one, for me. It is blended with some erythritol. I find that the blend is good for keeping the stevia from tasting bitter and the erythritol from having the cooling mouth effect that it has when used straight.
Just a couple thoughts! We all live and learn, don't we? I try to avoid MOSt of the Splenda products now, but have a ton of the old QuickPacks which I picked up when they were discontinued. Since one packet = one cup of sweetening power, they're great for things like our homemade jams and jellies.
Thanks ladies for the info. I didn't know what it was. But anything that has a filler I try to not eat.
Quiks pacs have a very small amount of filler.
I don't eat Splenda.
Any info on Swerve?
So far everything I have made with Swerve has come out delicious with no after taste.
Crockpot Cheese Cake
Strawberry Jam
Peaches for cobblers
Almond cake
Pumpkin pie
I have not baked anything chocolate, but it would surprise me if it
was anything but delicious.
The best buy I found was at Netrition.
Thanks Barbo. Thanks

You can read about the Carolina-New Orleans game in one of my other columns in Sundays Observer. If you want to, I mean. Theres no pressure. Its not as if youre obligated. Sure, I wrote two football columns and one basketball column. But its no big deal. The business of America is business, and professional journalism is mine.
Last week: 9-7
Season: 146-78
Upset of the week: Jacksonville (plus 2) to upset Buffalo. The Bills won by seven, so technically I lost.
Season: 9-6
Lock of the week: Kansas City (minus 4 1/2) to cover against Oakland. The Chiefs won by 25, so justice prevailed.
Season: 8-6-1
This weeks picks, with the home team in CAPS.
CAROLINA 26, New Orleans 23
Dallas 35, WASHINGTON 27: Retailers regularly promote holiday giveaways, but the Cowboys giveaway against Green Bay last week beats them all. Dallas head coach is taking heat and Dallas quarterback is taking heat and Dallas general manager is the Cowboys dont have a general manager. They have a master and a commander and a czar. He also owns the team. Yet, I like Jerry Jones. He will be the best owner at this game and hell have the best quarterback, the best coach and the best players. People talk about teams nobody wants to play. The Redskins are the team everybody wants to play.
SEATTLE 24, Arizona 17: Arizona is Carolina west, except the Cardinals are a game behind the Panthers and their quarterback is 52 years old. Panthers fans will be Seattle fans Sunday, since Arizona holds the tiebreaker with Carolina.
BALTIMORE 29, New England 27: The Ravens showed what they could do at Detroit Monday. Somebody is going to work up momentum going into the playoffs. If the Ravens slip in, it could be them.
Miami 26, BUFFALO 20: Despite the turmoil for which the Dolphins are wholely responsible theyve won three straight since their loss to the Panthers. This is a good team.
KANSAS CITY 24, Indianapolis 19: Jamaal Charles caught four touchdown passes against Oakland last week, and they all looked the same. Hows it go? Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me four times, I must be Oakland.
The rest
ST. LOUIS 30, Tampa Bay 26
CINCINNATI 24, Minnesota 17
Tennessee 26, JACKSONVILLE 24
DETROIT 30, N.Y. Giants 23
SAN DIEGO 28, Oakland 20
GREEN BAY 31, Pittsburgh 29
PHILADELPHIA 34, Chicago 28
SAN FRANCISCO 26, Atlanta 14
Upset of the week
Cleveland (plus 2 1/2) 23, N.Y. JETS: Couldnt find an upset I like. I dont dislike this one. The Browns rarely have a great game, but they have great moments. That ought to be enough.
Lock of the week
Denver (minus 10 1/2) 33, HOUSTON 17: The Broncos finish the regular season with two road games at Houston and at Oakland. Win both and home field advantage is theirs. Dangerous Lock; although the Texans have lost 12 straight, eight have come by seven or fewer points and five have come by three or fewer. But after Denvers loss to San Diego last week, I dont see the Broncos allowing Houston to hang in.

Innovative Food Holdings Announces Financial Results For The Third Quarter And Nine Months Ended September 30, 2012
NAPLES, Fla., Nov. 26, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Innovative Food Holdings, Inc., (OTCQB: IVFH) a company operating in the gourmet food space through its ownership of a growing number of independent, wholly-owned subsidiaries and brands, today announced its financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2012.
Third Quarter and First Nine Months 2012 Financial Highlights
- Record quarterly revenues of $5,130,418; an increase of approximately 77% compared to the third quarter of 2011;
- Nine month record revenues of $12,768,596; an increase of approximately 57% compared to the first nine months of 2011;
- September 2012 represented 38th consecutive month of increased month-over-month revenue;
- EBITDA (without non-operations related stock, warrant and options gains/losses) for the third quarter of 2012 was $293,280 compared to an EBITDA loss of $96,583 for the third quarter of 2011;
- EBITDA (without non-operations related stock, warrant and options gains/losses) for the first nine months of 2012 increased by over 170% to $656,588 compared to EBITDA of $234,933 for the first nine months of 2011.
"Innovative Food Holdings had a significantly strong quarter, both financially and operationally, as we continued to successfully execute on our growth strategy and further penetrate the gourmet food market," stated Sam Klepfish, Chief Executive Officer of Innovative Food Holdings. "We remain focused on building a best in class portfolio of synergistic gourmet food companies that leverage the respective strengths of Innovative Food Holdings' core business model. In addition, as a result of our strong position in the gourmet specialty market, our growing financial strength, and general weak economic conditions, we are now seeing increased opportunities to further grow the Innovative Food Holdings portfolio as we continue to benefit from greater exposure of our products and brands."
Mr. Klepfish continued, "Throughout the quarter we presented the Innovative Food Holdings story to several institutional investors within the microcap space as we continue with our proactive investor relations plan to further increase shareholder value. In general, we believe that the feedback we have received from those investor meetings has been overwhelmingly positive and we look forward to continuing our engagement with investors over the coming quarters."

Google Brushes Off "Outside" Android Devs...Again
The turmoil that began just over a month ago with a mis-addressed email has boiled over again for Google, after the company issued what was termed "verbal silence" in reply to a petition from more than 200 Android developers.
The original uproar began in mid-July when Google Developer Advocate David McLaughlin accidentally sent an email to the public Android developers list revealing that the company had been providing the contestants in the Android Developer Challenge with updated SDKs — under a non-disclosure agreement — while other developers were forced to work with badly outdated materials. In response to this revelation, an Android developer from Germany, Nicolas Gramlich, drafted a petition calling on Google to provide updates to the SDK as well as increased information about the platform's progress, and began circulating it among Android developers.
The current brouhaha erupted as a result of Google's response to that petition. After sending the petition, complete with 245 signatures, to Google's Android Advocate, Gramlich received an all-but-nonexistent reply. The two-sentence response, which Gramlich subsequently posted to the Android developers forum, reportedly reads:
Thanks for taking the time to send this. — David
Exactly who David is, or what his function within Google might be, was not indicated, though a reasonable guess would be David McLaughlin, the Developer Advocate who set the initial firestorm off with his overeager emailing. What doesn't require any guessing, however, is what the feeling is among the Android developers, who have now been brushed off a second time.
Update: Google has released an updated SDK along with a roadmap for future development.

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Thanksgiving is early this year, before many in the Northeast have had a chance to recover from the psychological and physical damage caused by Hurricane Sandy. Marianne* watched as trees fell all around her home, destroying neighbors' cars and homes. Although she was without power for almost a week, she felt incredibly lucky that her own home somehow escaped damage. And she felt guilty that she could not feel happier. "I'm grateful," she said, "but I'm feeling sort of stunned. And I keep telling myself that I don't have any reason to feel so badly. I didn't lose my house, or a child, or all of my things…" Marianne's feelings are actually quite normal. Most of us are creatures of habit. We expect things to go the way they have been going, and we are shaken up when suddenly everything is different, frightening, disrupted. Watching a neighborhood fall apart, listening to trees falling during the storm, even simply walking around and seeing what the wind and rain and sea did to familiar places, can make a previously safe-seeming world suddenly appear frightening.
While repairs are moving forward at what seems an incredible pace, there are still far too many people whose lives have not gotten back to normal. And no matter what we want to think, that change in the world we know – or thought we knew – can be disruptive to our psyches.

Words do not begin to describe the way i feel at this very moment.I am honored and deeply touched to have been made a sparkspeople motivator. When i woke up this morning i thought to myself today is going to be a great day, well i have only been awake for about 20 mins and it has gone from great to awesome. I got a message on my facebook and it was from my good friends mary and jo telling me there was a surprise on sparks people so come see. I thought surprise , what surprise so i hadnt even had a bite of my breakfast and i was logging in to my sparkspeople. I went to the message board and when i saw that i had been honored i thought to myself no way not me and when i loaded up my sparks page and saw that little motivation symbol i immediatley broke out sobbing. I couldt believe i was someone that people looked up to and someone who was viewed as a motivation. It reminded me of something that i was thinking about last night when i was waiting for the bus at the bus terminal. A very obese lady walked in and sat down and i immediatley felt sad for her. It wasnt that i was judging her for her weight problem but i said to my husband that i felt sad for her. I wished that some how i could share all the knowledge that i knew with even one person and perhaps make a difference in someone's life .Not necessarily that ladys but someones. I dont claim that i know everything there is to weight lose or that i hold some great secret but i do remember once upon a time i thought i could never lose the weight. So many people want to lose weight and feel the same thing that they cant ,but i now know i can lose the weight and i am losing the weight and one day i hope that i can pass on some of what i know to perhaps help someone else. So i guess what i am saying is i would like to be seen as a MOTIVATOR to help others reach thier goals and i have now achieved this and i couldnt be more thrilled. There are so many of you and if your reading this then you will that i am talking about you fine people that have been a true inspiration to me as well. I feel that alot of my success has been due to the fact that i have such an amazing support both here and at home and i thank everyone for your continue support.
If you would have asked me almost 9 months ago where i saw my self being healthy wise you months from now i would have probably told you i would be a very unhealthy, obese person on my way downhill to living a very short life. I would have told you i was 310 pounds and gorwing at a steady rate. Never in a million years would i have guessed i would be where i am today. Words to not begin to desribe the incredible journey i have been on thus far. Over the past 8 1/2 months i have watched myself transform right before my own eyes and my body has gotten smaller, and although my body has otten smaller it has grown too. I may not have grown physically but mentally i have and i am not the same person i was 9 months ago. I am now a much m roe confident person and for once in my life i can say i like myself no i mean love myself. Today is a momentous day for meto stand on the scale and see the 100's again. I have not weighed in the 100's in almost 16 years. I have worked very hard to reach this milestone and couldnt be more happy to share it will all of you. All of you have played an important part in my journey and i thank you from the bottom of my heart. Each week i get one step closer to my goal but i always make sure to embrace this journey and to celebrate these moments along the way to reaching those goals.
I cant believe it has been 6 months already since i became a sparks member and what an incredible 6 months it has been, I have met many wonderful people along the way but none as dear as the team members on my BLAHC team. You all have been such an inspiration and motivation to me and i feel truly blessed to have met you all. Although i started my journey before i became a sparks member it wasn't until i joined sparks and more so until i joined this team that i started noticing some things along the way. Not only was i changing in appearance but also mentally too. I feel i have come along way since that very day i joined this team and i have learned a great deal on this journey with you all. I have learned to how to laugh again and how to smile. I have learned that i am worth doing this for and i am worth loving myself. MAry i can never thank you enough for encouraging me and many others to take that first step at looking in that mirror for the first time. It took all of you to help me see all of my beauty not just on the outside but inside too. I feel like i have emerged from under that dark and gloomy place that i once sat feeling sorry for myself. I have done things i never would have done before. Heck a year ago i would have never went to the mall and exercised as people walked by. I would have never jumped in the froze lake. Heck i don't even think i could have pulled my over weight body out of the lake. I feel so incredible and i don't look too bad too. I know that i still have a long way to go but i am embrace this journey and trusting its process. I am living my life instead of just existing. I have accomplished many things along the way so far. I have lost 107 pounds , i have learned to live and put myself first for once, i have learned that its not always easy but if we persevere we can get through it specially with the help of great people like all of you. I look forward to continuing on my journey with all of you by my side.
Ok now on a side not another thing i would have NEVER did 6 months ago is this so to reward myself i was daring and got my belly button pierced. It didn't even hurt really. Some may say i am crazy but i feel free and am living my life to its fullest and i figure heck why not try new things lol.
For those of you who do not know but i am guessing most of you do, things haven't been easy for our family lately. Without going into great personal detail i wanted to share a little with you all . i am the proud mom of three children whom i love more then life itself. My oldest son has always been a difficult child as i have mentioned in previous posts and he has been diagnosed with bipolar. This has made for a very challenging life for us all. Currently due to different circumstances he has chosen to live on his own. This isn't always easy for a parent but sometimes we have no control over these things. My other son is 13 and he too has disabilities that require intervention. We just recently found out on tuesday i think that he has been excepted into the treatment program but for us it is bittersweet. You see he does so desperately needs this treatment but unfortunately there isn't the kind of treatment he needs here in our home town so we just found out that he will be going there and its about 10 hours away from us. It rips my heart out it feels like i am losing another child. Like i said he needs this specialty treatment so we are so happy he has this chance to get the help he needs but its the hardest thing to let your child go. So when i said i had to go to an appointment this is what it is in regards to. I feel like i have some how failed as a parent but i know this isn't the case but its still so hard. I am sharing this with you not so that you will judge but so that it may help me to talk about it and for you all to understand a little better why i have been feeling the way i have lately. I do so greatly appreciate all that you do for support and encouragement and i am glad that i have you all here for me. Thanks for listening.
I have DIVATUDE , how bout you? I got this shirt made to today. It will be a visual motivator to keep me striving for all my goals. I hope it will help keep you motivated too. We can all be divas with DIVATUDE.
