Probably the Last Oogachaka Blog
No comments · Posted by psebby in Trips
We are in a house in Pearland, Texas, just south of Houston. It's different. Different than living on a boat. Different than being on the water. Different than being all alone 8000 miles from home!
The kids spend a lot of time at our house.
They were so serious, but all the ladies loved them.
We plan to travel again, but so far we have been busy getting settled. Tomorrow we finally get that big shipment from the boat!
January or February we are thinking of taking a cruise. In June we are taking a road trip with Jackie and Alan to our niece's wedding in Illinois. September or October will bring us back to Illinois for Ken's 50th high school reunion. We still want to boat in the Greek Islands and in the Caribbean. These will be charter trips. We plan to return to Europe sometime and we would like to go to Norway.
Oogachaka has not sold yet and it worries us that it is in Australia – so far from us. She has been getting some work done and should be on the market soon.
Jackie and Alan are coming to Texas from Tennessee for Christmas and Thomas will be flying in from Montana. We are all looking forward to Christmas! We hope all of you will be celebrating the holidays in some way and we wish you all good things for the new year.
We will miss this. It was so fun to meet all of you people in the boating world and to reconnect with people we knew in high school and other times in our lives.
I will never stop this feeling……………………….

Second to the Last Oogachaka Blog

I know it's been forever since I last blogged, and it is time to close things up. We've been pretty busy. First of all, moving our "stuff"around from a boat to a truck to a shipping place to a ship, and different "stuff" from a storage unit to a truck to a house you hope to buy — well, this just isn't any fun.
In between crating and loading all this stuff, we made a week trip to Houston to see our grandchildren.
New Focus: Aurelia and TJ
Aurelia at dinosaur museum
TJ has a problem wearing pants all day.
From Houston, we flew to Boise – saw some friends and did some errands we needed to do. Had a good time. Wish I had taken some photos. From Boise we flew to Kalispell, Montana where our son, Thomas had left his car for us at the airport and we drove to Whitefish. We stayed there for a week, visiting with Thomas and we even took a trip to Glacier Park.
Then Thomas drove us down to Coeur d'Alene where we had our storage unit with all kinds of "stuff" that we saved after we sold our house. You'd think that if we lived without it for the last three years, we might not really need it. But we loaded another truck and we are now driving it down to Texas. We are in Salina, Kansas. Thomas helped us a lot with the loading. We are very happy to have that part finished.
Storage Unit in CDA
One more blog to go before this journey is completely over.

End to our Adventure …
No comments · Posted by Alan in Trips
Sunday Sept 21 their time: "Patty and I are flying to Houston on Thursday, leaving Oogachaka here in Pittwater where Andrew Coffey, Yacht Broker at the Quay's, will handle the sale of our boat. We have mixed emotions as we prepare to leave the great adventure we have had aboard Oogachaka. We have met some great people along the way and look forward to staying in touch with you all. Thanks for your thoughts and kind words over the years."

Busy! Busy!

We haven't seen a kangaroo or a koala, but last night we met two real Australians. Brian and Chris, who are the first people to own a Krogen in Australia, came up here to Pittwater from South Sydney and took us out to dinner. They are really fun people and it was great to talk about our boats. They bought a Krogen 48 recently and when they met the Krogen people they heard about us. It was fun to be with them as they heaped praises on us for our accomplishments! And who doesn't like that!
We have been very busy packing up the boat.
We have packed over 60 boxes of stuff that we plan to ship home on a freighter. We no longer have space to do anything and we are anxious to get this stuff out of here. Next step will be to clean the boat.
Hopefully, the next time I blog it will be with photos of a beautiful empty Oogachaka.

We Did It!
No comments · Posted by psebby in Trips
We pulled into the harbor at Sydney and felt pretty darn good. Mission accomplished.
Here is the boat out in the ocean a couple days ago and I saw a ship. Ended up pretty close to him, but although he was under power, he was not moving.
Sydney appears to be a magnificent city.
Although we are now located north of the city in Pittwater, we hope to take the bus downtown several times and do some exploring. We have boat work to do first.
Here we are when we at last were tied up to our mooring ball and probably finished driving our Oogachaka forever.
Our plans now are to get the boat all cleaned up to sell. We have a broker, Andrew, and he has been taking great care of us so far. Yesterday he showed up in a 40 foot inflatable boat out in the ocean to welcome us to Australia. Today we had lunch and then he took us to a pharmacy, a supermarket, a phone store and a storage unit. I bought boxes and plan to start boxing things up and then store things until we are ready to freight them to Houston.
We hope to sell the boat in the next couple months and be home by Christmas. I happened to have an internet chat with my brother this morning and it made me realize that I am very homesick.
This has been an amazing experience! We will keep you all posted on our adventure here in Australia.

Last Stop Before Australia
No comments · Posted by psebby in Trips
We are in Noumea, New Caledonia and we are enjoying the town. Very French. I got my hair done in a place where they spoke only French and I love how it turned out. Of course, I can't pouf it up the way he did, but it sure was a nice relaxing day.
Ken went to the chandlery while I did my hair and bought some pieces for the guy line up top. We've been here a week already and I've been doing a lot of packing.
We took a bus down to the south of town where all the beaches and tourists hang out and we had lunch in a revolving restaurant. Superb – a fabulous steak – maybe better than that great soup we had in Savusavu, Fiji.
I've also been spending time on the internet looking at houses in Texas. We had planned to look for a building we could set up as a studio and shop with housing upstairs but houses are very reasonable in Houston, so we are looking in Pearland where Matthew and Jamie would eventually like to buy.
Yesterday we went to the grocery store for our final provision.
We have been watching the weather between here and Sydney and it is looking good for a Monday departure. We have decided to go straight to Sydney, skipping Brisbane, since our broker is located there and it will be a more likely place to sell the boat. We will be about 10 days out on the ocean.
This photo was taken at the yacht club in Suva, our last stop in Fiji.
I can't stop this feeling……………………………

Arrived Sydney
No comments · Posted by Alan in Trips
8/27/14 "We made it to Sydney and were at the Customs and Border Protection dock by 8:00 a.m. local time. Three hours and almost $500.00 later we were officially checked in and we headed back out to go north about 16 miles to Pittwater, where our broker Andrew greeted us out in the ocean in 4 meter swells and 25 plus knots of wind in a 40 foot inflatable to lead us in to our mooring. Then he went to fetch his work boat for us to use to get back and forth to shore and showed us where the Yacht Club was to get something to eat. He also loaned us a WiFi stick to use. It certainly feels like we are in good hands with Andrew. We just got back in the dark but easily found OOGACHAKA which her blue LED lights guiding us. We are going to crash for the night and regroup tomorrow. Glad this part of the trip is behind us – way too much wind and waves for too many days in a row."

At 6pm 8/25 their time: Ken wrote that all is well and that they were making 7.0 knots (40% faster than they have been). Their plotted position report puts them clearly on the track for Sydney. That puts them about 200 nautical miles from Sydney which is about 1.5 days travel.

8/24/14: Alan says…..Ken emailed at 4pm his time for a weather report. Passageweather.com indicated that the next few days the waves and wind will pick up on the track to Sydney. The Sydney forecast is for rain and midteens wind speeds starting Tuesday, Aug 26 and running thru Thursday. They continue to report "all is well", but Ken said that he will not miss these long overnight passages. As they get closer to land, the traffic will pick up and they will have more to see (and watch out for). The image below shows their reported positions since leaving New Caledonia (the red line is a straight line to Sydney). It looks strange to me, and it appears now they have turned more toward Brisbane than Sydney. They have not said anything but Sydney, but maybe the attraction of nearer land is overtaking them.

Is everyone else as nervous as I am????
If you're not scared, you haven't followed Cincinnati sports for the last 35 years.
When people say that I dont know what Im talking about when it comes to sports or writing, I think: Man, you should see me in the rest of my life.
---Joe Posnanski
He looks like nothing ever happened to him.
He runs a ball down field, he stands in the pocket and throws accurate passes....he gets HIT, and then drives the Bengals down for a score.
I have no complaints.
Call me crazy, but I'm liking this new MNF crew in the booth.
Kornheiser with Theisman is A LOT better than Theisman and that dude that he used to bicker with every 5 seconds.
I've enjoyed these guys too. So many people were saying this combo would be awful and they can't stand Theisman. I'm liking 'em.Originally Posted by WilyMoROCKS
And I must admit, I like Theisman. I'll never forget that fateful day he was injured; it still pains me to even think about it because it was so gruesome. I think he stole a little itty bitty piece of my heart that day (Griffey owns a bigger piece, and Adam has the rest).
"Enjoy this Reds fans, you are watching a legend grow up before your very eyes" ... DoogMinAmo on Adam Dunn
I'm impressed.
and happy.

so far so great!

The resulting bacterial strain expressed all the genes in the previously silent cluster, and produced several previously unknown compounds. These compounds belonged to a class of natural products called polycyclic tetramate macrolactams or PTMs, many of which have useful biomedical applications. By examining the compounds produced by strains missing one of the six genes in the cluster, the researchers were able to discover the function of each gene's encoded protein, leading to a better understanding of how bacteria synthesize PTMs.
Zhao sees the work as an important step toward a larger goal: to create a generalized, automated high-throughput method to reconstruct any biochemical pathway in a target experimental organism. Zhao is the leader of the recently formed Biosystems Design Research Theme at the Institute for Genomic Biology, University of Illinois, and development of this type of method is a major goal of the Theme.
"We want the technology platform established, then we can actually work on mammalian systems, on plant systems, on microorganisms," said Zhao. Yet his ultimate motivation is the discovery of potentially useful biochemicals: "It's very likely some of the compounds will turn into new drugs, and that's very exciting."

Trustworthy, down to earth, creative, laid back and optimistic type of guy who loves to share in the fun and laughter with people. I obviously like a good looking woman but that is not the most important thing. I like a woman who is confident, strong, intelligent and knows what she wants. I'm originally from Ireland, moved to England for a few years, moved to San Francisco for a few years and then moved onto New York. I've done quite a bit of traveling around these moves, mostly to Europe, the Americas and Asia - it's been a humbling experience to say the least, opened my eyes about people in ways I never imagined. I'm a lover of culture and the arts, particularly fond of learning new languages (speak a little Italian, German, Mandarin from courses and trips). I love to meet people who are willing to share and learn. I'm humble, hopeful and looking forward to meeting you ;)

going on long scenic drives with that someone, playing guitar and writing songs, sketching, cycling, a few drinks in a bar with friends... sharing that magical moment with someone where nothing is said but so much is understood
Love to travel to places with that someone and meet with the locals, long hikes through forests and beaches, watching the sunset/sunrise with that someone special, dancing close on the dance floor, scuba diving around the reefs

'Nurses recruit nurses'
All screening interviews are carried out by experienced Nurse Recruitment Consultants so you can be sure that we 'speak the same language' and all potential candidates have met the standards required.
When you contact Plexus, you can be sure that you will be talking with experts who not only understand your field but also understand what sort of candidate you need. This is one of the many things that set us apart from other agencies.
No upfront costs
At Plexus we only charge once. This is when the successful candidate starts work at your facility – not when they sign, not when their visa is approved – nothing is payable until they walk through the door. That means no risk but maximum rewards.
Our fees are some of the lowest in the business; they are more affordable than you may think.
Continuous communication
You will receive an update on the progress of your candidates each week. This means that you and your candidate are 100% informed for the entire duration of the recruitment process. Our dedicated relocations coordinator will ensure that your nurses arrive informed, ready for work and happily settled.

As successful as their recent homestand was, the Chicago Bulls have been even better lately on the road. A visit to one of the Eastern Conference's worst teams would appear to give the Bulls a prime chance for another win away from home, but the Washington Wizards have proved difficult to beat at home lately. The Bulls will seek a sixth consecutive road victory and their season-high fourth in a row overall by denying the Wizards their longest win streak at the Verizon Center in five seasons Saturday night. Chicago (26-16) finished 3-1 in its homestand and earned a decisive 103-87 victory over Golden State in Friday's finale. Kirk Hinrich had a season-high 25 points and Nate Robinson scored 22 for the Bulls, whose lone blemish on the homestand was an overtime loss to Memphis last Saturday. In his fourth straight start in place of All-Star Luol Deng, Jimmy Butler recorded his first career double-double (16 points, 12 rebounds). Carlos Boozer and fellow All-Star Joakim Noah also pu...

Sycamore Public Library
Although the Sycamore Public Library did not open its doors until 1892, we can trace its roots back to 1875 when a Chautauqua Scientific Circle was formed in Sycamore. Once members had completed the course, they established the Athena Literary Society in order to form a public library. Over the course of three years they raised $700 and asked city council to appropriate money for books and that the mayor appoint a board of directors. On July 12, 1892, the Sycamore Public Library opened in Hoyt and Rogers' Store, second floor, in the backroom. This building now is occupied by Marlyn's Majorettes. The City Council appropriated $800 to purchase books. The Athena Literary Society assisted with funding the library for the first two years. Miss Flora Jeannette Dow, a member of Athena, was the first librarian. In 1902, Andrew Carnegie offered the City of Sycamore $10,000 for the construction of a library, provided an acceptable site could be secured and that the Sycamore City Council would annually appropriate at least 10% of his donation for maintaining the building. Mr. Frederick B. Townsend donated the property where the library stands today. Miss Dow received the honor of placing the first trowel of mortar on the cornerstone on May 24, 1905. Over the next 90 years, several renovation and remodeling projects took place and then on October 14, 1995, a new era of growth began with the groundbreaking ceremony for the library expansion. Today we are looking at ways to serve the community's needs by providing the best possible services and programs available.

North Grove School
North Grove School, 3 miles northwest of Sycamore, was built in 1878 by the Swedish Evangelical Lutheran Church as a parochial and Sunday school. Pupils of diverse ethnic backgrounds learned their lessons in Swedish, even several years after the DeKalb County public school system purchased the school in 1880. The Sycamore unit district acquired the school in 1949, and it continued as a school until 1952, when it was closed. The North Grove community continued to lovingly maintain the building and used it as a neighborhood social center for many years. Classroom in School Upon the closing of North Grove School in 1952, all furnishings were removed. However many furnishings from old Sycamore schools were still in storage in the 1960s when the Natural Resource Center in Genoa began using the site for special education programs. The school was refurbished and re-supplied using these furnishings, with additional period pieces being donated by private citizens. In 1970 North Grove School at 26745 Brickville Road (Map) was listed in the Illinois Directory of Historical Buildings. On May 24, 2012 the United States Department of the Interior placed the school and its outbuildings on the National Register of Historical Places. Today the school is still owned by the Sycamore School District but is leased to and lovingly cared for by the North Grove School Association, whose goal is to preserve this educational icon for future generations.

Punakha District
Coordinates: 27°40′N 89°50′E / 27.667°N 89.833°E
Punakha District (Dzongkha: སྤུ་ན་ཁ་རྫོང་ཁག་; Wylie: Spu-na-kha rdzong-khag) is one of the 20 dzongkhags (districts) comprising Bhutan. It is bordered by Thimphu, Gasa, and Wangdue Phodrang Districts. The dominant language in the district is Dzongkha, the national language.
Pungtang Dechen Photrang Dzong at Punakha, the administrative and religious center of the district, is the winter home of Bhutan's Dratshang Lhentshog (Central Monk Body). Since the 1680s the dzong has also been the site of a continuous vigil over the earthly body of Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal, the founder of the country, which lies in a special chamber in the dzong. Punakha dzong was the capital of Bhutan during the time of Shabdrung Ngawang Namgyal. The Punakha Dzong is one of the most historic dzongs in the whole country. Built by Shabdrung Ngwang Namgyal in the 17th century, it is located between the confluence of two rivers: Pho Chhu (male) and Mo Chhu (female).
Punakha is divided into eleven gewogs:
Over half of Punakha (Chhubu Gewog, Goenshari, Kabisa, Toewang Gewogs) lies within Jigme Dorji National Park, one of the protected areas of Bhutan. The dzongkhag also contains biological corridors along the Thimphu District border.[1][2]

Shimmering 1858 MS 63 Three Dollar Gold1858 MS 63 PCGS. The 1858 is the first "issue rarity" in the series of three dollar gold pieces from the Philadelphia mint, with production reduced to 2,133 business strikes. It is also a significant condition rarity. The majority of survivors are VF to XF quality, with slightly fewer AU coins known. Akers ranked the 1858 as 8th in the series according to rarity by average grade. This is a shimmering, boldly struck coin that is tinted a pleasant yellow-gold, and shows only the most trivial scuffiness in the fields and no appreciable abrasions. A mere handful of 1858 threes exist today in Mint State, so this Select example easily merits a Condition Census ranking. Population: 5 in 63, 1 finer (12/99). (NGC ID# 25MC, PCGS# 7978)

Country Bread with Semolina and Corn Meal
|Dried yeast
|2⁄3 Ounce (18 Gram)
|Warm water
|3 Fluid Ounce (75 Milliliter)
|1⁄2 Teaspoon
|Semolina flour/Strong unbleached flour
|2 Pound (1 Kilogram)
|Corn meal
|8 Ounce (Polenta, 250 Gram)
|2 Teaspoon
|Mastihi/3 tablespoons mastiha liquor/ouzo
|1⁄8 Teaspoon, ground to a powder with pestle and mortar
|1⁄2 Teaspoon (If Your Water Is Hard)
|2 Ounce (50 Gram)
|Olive oil
|2 Fluid Ounce (50 Milliliter)
|Sesame seeds
|2 Tablespoon
Sprinkle the dried yeast into the warm water and stir in the sugar.
Mix together the smaller quantity of flour with the corn meal and salt in a large bowl.
Put the powdered mastihi or liquor into a measuring jug and make up to 500 ml (18 fl oz) with warm water and vinegar, if needed.
Stir in the honey and olive oil.
Pour this into the flour, beating to make a sticky dough.
When the yeast is frothy, and has doubled in volume, stir or beat it into the dough.
Continue to stir, adding more flour as needed, until the dough becomes less sticky and more cohesive.
Turn out the dough onto a well-floured surface and knead until smooth, elastic and feeling like velvet.
Add more flour as needed.
Put the dough back into the oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth and let it rise until almost double in bulk - about an hour.
Punch down the dough and knead for another 5 minutes.
Push it into a roughly ovoid shape, about 2.5 cm (1 in) thick, by holding your fists clenched and rocking the back of your knuckles back and forth.
This squeezes out any over-sized air bubbles.
Roll the dough back up like a rug, and pat into any shape you like -one or two loaves.
Place on an oiled or non-stick baking sheet.
Cut a few diagonals across the top.
Cover with a cloth and leave to rise in a warm, draught-free place for about 1 hour (for 2 loaves), until almost double in bulk.

Eh it's nothing like that anymore. You can still kill quickly without downtime. But battles last alot longer and its nothing like what you see there. Theres a reason they had a closed beta.
Just wish they wouldnt have added Hunter/Paladin talents so near end game and then never tested them. Paladins had a sweeping change when open beta occurred and they were not the same class they were during release that they were in beta.
don't think anyone disagrees with this, but marqmajere made a very good point. He wasn't saying we should let Blizzard off the hook just because they're Blizzard, but because it hasn't been long enough to really call it one way or the other. I agree with him, it seems like a lot of peoples' complaints are things that will be worked out in time. The fact is, World of Warcraft is a fun game despite its issues and it's getting a bum rap from a lot of people, I think, because it's a Blizzard game. It's the same reasoning that drives people to hate Microsoft or nVidia. I enjoy the game very much, I know thousands of other people do as well, and none of us are "retarded" as you so kindly put it.
I disagree. WoW in alot of cases is getting a bum rep because it deserves it. From server instability to idiotic dev decisions. These are company issues regarding the game. Yes they can be fixed. But will they if people accept this kind of service and say its ok? No they wont. It's not because they are Blizzard. Actually Thats one reason people are disapointed. Blizzard is held so highly in regard that alot of people are extremely disapointed in the company right now. They see(paticularly me) a company that they love and have held in such high regard releasing a product that has many poor factors too it.
Dont think my criticism is selective of Blizzard alone. We have a sticky thread here by me that shows EQ 2 is anything but an angels paradise of MMORPGs. People need to see these things. These companies need to be brought out? Know why? Because in this business reputation is everything. These companies dont want to be embarrassed. When they are they are more likely to fix things.

Conservative councillor Ivor Hyslop, who quit in October after six years leading Dumfries and Galloway Council, was investigated about complaints made by three fellow Tories.
The probe that was sparked after the alleged spat at a Conservative and Unionist Group gathering last summer also followed the resignation of seven Tory councillors from what was the ruling coalition with the SNP.
Dumfries Provost Jack Groom, Ian Carruthers and his wife, Karen, Graham Bell, Peter Diggle, Roberta Tuckfield and Graeme Tait left en masse.
The breakaway Independent Conservative and Unionist Group was formed shortly before Mr Hyslop's stormy stand-down when he publicly criticised the faction, saying they had not raised their earlier concerns with him directly.
Mr Hyslop said at a council meeting that his opponents had displayed "cowardice and lack of moral fibre".
The new Tory group now has six members and the original camp, eight. Labour, with 15, was handed power as a result of the schism.
Mr Hyslop said yesterday: "There were various accusations made against me. It's not a nice thing to happen."

OROVILLE – After once approving the transfer of Osoyoos Lake Veterans Memorial State Park to Oroville and rescinding their decision, the state Parks and Recreation Commission has again agreed the city would be the best stewards of the facility.
Veterans Memorial Park will be transferred to Oroville
Tonasket School Board sets M&O Levy amount
TONASKET – The Tonasket School Board set their levy rate at $2.39 per $1,000 of assessed property value, which will bring in $860,550 for the next two school years.
"This is a replacement maintenance and operations levy," Catherine Stangland, board chairwoman, said. "Although this is a rate increase of 17 cents, assuming the Levy Equalization Act dollars remain the same, this levy actually does not replace the levy we passed two years ago. The state has already eliminated $100,000 from our budget this year, which we had already budgeted. We are anticipating another $200,000 in cuts."
School funding problems shine light on state budget
King County Superior Court Judge John Erlick recently ruled that the legislature is in violation of Article IX section 1 of the Washington State Constitution to provide state funding for public schools. That section states, "It is the paramount duty of the state to make ample provision for the education of all children residing within its borders, without distinction or preference on account of race, color, caste, or sex." Judge Erlick left it up to the legislature to resolve the problem of how to address their constitutional responsibilities. But with the current legislative session scheduled to end this week, it is still unclear that anything will be done this session to address the Judge's decision.
Oroville will sponsor rural library funding application
OROVILLE – The Oroville City Council gave the nod to the Friends of the Library to pursue federal funding to help build a new public library, a goal the group has been working on for the past several years.

Filled with tomatoes, peas, squash, and potatoes and other growing things, the garden has come to life with each passing rain shower followed by a sunny day. Though the house isn't up and running yet, but Hospice House Foundation president Michele Alderson believes that having a vibrant garden area is a good way to bring life to the grounds.

There are 2 Go Karting Track(s) in Hampshire
Both tracks in Hampshire are outdoor venues. Matchams is close to Bournemouth and is great for Stag/Hen parties as their events are aimed at groups. Thruxton on the other hand is much larger and is very much more enthusiast orientated – great fun to drive though!
Matchams Karting
Hurn Road, Ringwood, Hampshire BH24 2BT
Track length: 420m | track details and activities | book karting here
If you're in the New Forest or staying in Bournemouth then Matchams Karting in Ringwood is ideally placed. It's a decent sized outdoor venue, which holds a good range of events but Saturdays are for team endurance events only.

Sitting alongside the Thruxton Motor Racing circuit the kart track is not far from Salisbury, Southampton or Basingstoke and is a really technical track. However, the big 270cc karts are well up to the job, making it great fun to drive

Originally written on Awful Announcing | Last updated 2/15/13
Last year, we covered a story in which former Detroit Lions offensive lineman (and current ESPN analyst) Lomas Brown admitted to intentionally missing a block in order for quarterback Scott Mitchell to get injured in a game against the Packers. Mitchell fired back at Brown with venom (as did many, many people online) after Brown's admission, but now, the two are apparently friends after talking the incident out according to PFT: Brown said he called Mitchell to discuss the comments, and said they had a long conversation and parted as friends. He would not have blamed Mitchell if he hadn't forgiven him, Brown said. "It was foolish," Brown said. "If that would have been me getting a phone call from me after what I said, I wouldn't have reacted the way Scott reacted," Brown said. "I would have been mad. I wouldn't have been laughing on the phone with me. "Scott wasn't like that." Good for Mitchell for being the bigger man and moving on from the incident. It looks like this extremely bizarre story is over and done with, but that doesn't necessarily mean we're going to forget about it. I wonder how much of Mitchell's conversation with Brown was just him trying to extinguish the flames of the fire Brown created so he could continue to live his life and not be questioned about the situation any further. For Brown, he has to be thankful his comments didn't completely derail his career as an NFL analyst for ESPN. [Pro Football Talk via DetroitLions.com]

Mayhem # 1723839
About Me**DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND MY CONTROL, I AM ON A TEMPORARY HIATUS FROM SHOOTING FOR THE REMAINDER OF 2014. I WILL ABSOLUTELY STILL HONOR PRIOR CONFIRMED SHOOTS, BUT AM UNABLE TO BOOK ANYTHING FURTHER AT THIS TIME. HOWEVER, PLEASE DON'T HESITATE TO CONTACT ME FOR FUTURE COLLABORATIONS.**
Welcome to Deadheart Photo,
I am primarily a natural light photographer who is drawn to interesting photos. The kind with character, & dynamics. To that end, I frequently seek out rustic, weathered, & even harsh-looking locations as the settings for my shoots.
My goal is to make my subjects look their best so that as a result, I look good as well. I am also a drummer in a local band where I play to serve the song. I bring that same approach to my photography: I shoot to serve the final image. I believe that just like a band, the photographer and model are a team who work together to produce the highest quality result possible.
I am very laid-back, open-minded, & into collaboration, so bring your ideas! Mutual creativity is one of life's greatest pleasures. All models should feel free to also bring an escort to our shoot if you feel the need, but please limit it to one or two people, as there's a fine line between an escort, and an entourage.
I really want anyone who shoots with me to consider it among their most positive modeling experiences. With a bit of notice, I am happy to accommodate any kind of schedule needs you may have. I look forward to setting something up so we can work together.
** A note about Compensation: I am presently shooting on a TF basis exclusively, unless otherwise stated. In certain cases requiring travel, we can discuss covering related expenses. Paid models will generally receive fewer finished edits than TF models.
** A note about edits: Please understand that because this is not my occupation, or even my only creative endeavour, it can sometimes take up to 2 months to receive final, edited images after our shoot.
** A note about communication: It is mutually beneficial to be as open, & clear as possible throughout our collaboration. We all have daily lives, and sometimes unexpected challenges arise. When this occurs however, please don't wait until the last minute to share this information. Also, if we have discussed, and agreed to shoot specific styles, concepts, etc. please don't wait until the last minute to change your mind. I will always operate using transparency, professionalism, and common decency as my default courses of action. All I ask is that you please do the same.
Thanks for your time & interest,
Claude @ Deadheart Photo

As an independent or freelancer accounting can often seem overwhelming. The trick is to find a system that works for you. Learn how to plan out a system for book-keeping that works for you and benefits your business. Create a plan to keep from getting overwhelmed. Streamline your income and expenses into a fine-oiled machine.
Need to get creative with your tax planning?
Many small businesses are unaware how to best take advantage of tax benefits. What does/doesn't qualify as a write-off? Are you maximizing your return on investment?
Are you a Sole Proprietor or a LLC? C-Corp or an S-Corp?
Learn the necessary state and local bureaucracy to start a business. (Eg. Incorporation) Knowing what type business fits for your company can make all the difference come tax time.
Learning through doing
In this workshop we'll discuss the topics above in the context of creating a fictional company. We'll discuss the perils and pitfalls and also the benefits. After two hours you'll have a better grasp of what it takes to make a company fiscally solvent. You'll also have a better understanding of the tax code and how to work it to your company's advantage in order to maximize profit.

No one masters self employment without help from others. As more and more people pursue independent careers, the need for structure, education, and shared accountability grows accordingly. Just as industries have risen to accommodate the needs of a white collar employed workforce, so too will new services be built for the new independent workforce.
To this end, we provide a platform that allows participants to to create programs that are geared toward this goal. These efforts take the forms of classes, workshops, coworking sessions, mentorships, speaker series, and more. The program is driven by a core belief that each participant has something to teach and something to learn from everyone else.
