Counseling FAQ
What kind of individuals seek therapy?
Persons who seek therapy are individuals who are interested in growing and learning about themselves, their interpersonal relationships, and their relationship with God. Therapy often involves assisting clients in overcoming current personal and educational concerns, and it also can serve a preventive function by helping anticipate situations that may hinder one's growth and plan interventions that will be constructive.
How confidential is it?
Clients can expect that discussions will be kept confidential, except as otherwise required or permitted by law. Examples where confidentiality may be breached include child or adult abuse and behavior which poses a danger to the client or others.

If The Office quotes weren't enough to make you tune in, Cloris Leachman displays some serious PDA with Jack Black in the upcoming Super Bowl episode, the ancient actress reveals.
"I have an intimate scene with Jack Black," Leachman, who recently competed on Dancing With the Stars, told ET while prepping for the Tournament of Roses New Year's parade.
"He has to take me naked out of a bath tub and we kiss a lot."
Just lovely. Jessica Alba will also appear in the same guest-star-studded episode of the hilarious NBC comedy, slated to air February 1, also known as Super Bowl Sunday.

Thought some of you New York folks would be interested in the following notice:
Best thoughts,
John Smetana
Posters, costumes and props belonging to famous magicians Harry Blackstone Sr (1885 1065) and his son Harry Blackstone Jr. (1934 1997) will be auctioned online beginning Thursday.
The Blackstones created the most spectacular illusions of the past century, from the "Floating Light Bulb," to the infamous "Zig-Zag Illusion," to "The Vanishing Birdcage." The last high profile magic auction of this type, "The Mulholland Collection," was purchased in 1991 by David Copperfield for over $2 million .
"Because I've been entrusted with upholding the Blackstone family's rich heritage and, as an official Ambassador to the Society of American Magicians (SAM) as well as the International Brotherhood of Magicians (IBM), we're donating a portion of the proceeds to each organization," said Mrs. Harry (Gay) Blackstone Jr.
The auction will be held exclusively on Sothebys.com from November 14 - 24, 2002.

Design is at the root of everything we do. To say it's an obsession would not be overstating things. It has transformed our habits and our habitats. Wms & Co. offers everyday objects elevated by design and influenced by history. Each detail is carefully considered without becoming overwrought. These are exquisitely practical tools to enhance daily life. Use them often and they will acquire the rich patina of service. We think they provide an intimate, personalized and deliciously offline experience that can be hard to come by these days. In the words of Paul Rand, the great American graphic designer, "Good design adds value of some kind, gives meaning and, not incidentally, can be sheer pleasure to behold." We second that emotion.
mr chow
JP Williams
i moved to new york in 1989 and i've only been to mr. chow's once. it's expensive, but frankly i don't remember the food. i do love the letterhead, though. i have absolutely no memory of where i found this. i have racked my brain, but for the life of me i simply cannot remember. (actually, i've since learned it's my wifes - she loves mr chow from her club days).
for a so-called modernist i certainly have many examples that do not fit into that narrow category. i actually believe i have more that doesn't. there is a great deal i like about this letterhead. i appreciate it because i don't think i could have designed it. one of the best reasons to work with other designers is because of their unique 'voices.' being of a certain age, i tend to gravitate to particular typefaces, stay within a comfort zone, i simply do not see certain possiblitlies. design is often a team effort, sharing the discovery and the solution is rewarding. what strikes me in particular about this design is the laid paper. a perfect choice. i have rarely specified laid paper, not sure why. typefaces are everything when designing a letterhead and the choices here is spot on. i remember when i taught typography and had a long discussion about choosing a typeface. one student had selected a specific typeface for his resume. stealth. the name of the font says it all. my questions to this particular student was, 'what does this say about you? does it say too much? how "designed" do you want something to be? what note do you want to hit?' mr. chow's letterhead really resonates with me. maybe it does with you?

my body and soul ain't no i in we baby

when you need a shoulder to lean on never hesitate
knowin you can always call on your soul mate
and vise versa and that's why i'll always be the first to
see ya come and frost your wrist up
now you owe me one
i know your tired of bein lonely
so baby gurl put it on me

you know this feeling is true
i know your tired of bein lonely
so baby gurl put it on me
i apreciate the roks and gifts that you cop me baby
and the house on the hill where you droped like 80
on the down payment
thinkin damn ain't life crazy
and ever since for my honey i've been twice the lady
what would i do without the nights that you kept me warm
when it's cold rule had a gurl
cought in the storm
and accept who you with
when you caught in the wrong
and respect when you flip
cause our love is strong
and when you hit the block i'll watch for 10/4
and when my pops is asleep just knock on the back door
baby boy we been down since jr. high
so when life get hot in july

and never part from the heart

when you told me you would never leave me lonely
so baby boy put it on me
since it's been better for you and i

If you're looking for a no-fuss, straightforward way to create invoices, estimates, sales invoices and more, Easy Invoice PDF Invoice Generator is a simple PDF-based solution. Unlike cloud-based billing and invoicing apps like FreeAgent or Zoho Books, you won't find tons of templates, tracking or fancy analytical features in Easy Invoice but it's very easy to use, converts everything straight into PDF format and can sync everything with your iPhone or iPad.
Easy Invoice can produce documents that include all of your estimates, sales invoices, and receipts which you can then send instantly to clients. Anything that's sent from your Mac, you can also choose to sync with your iPhone and iPad. In addition to this, you can export them to the developer's more advanced bookkeeping software Easy Books, which offers a complete account management solution.
Easy Invoice is easy to get started with and you should begin by entering the product or service you're selling and its price. So for example, if you're a selling a service, you must enter the name of the service and how much it costs per hour. The same goes for if you're selling a product – whatever your work is, you have to enter it first. Once you've defined what you're selling and their prices, it's then very easy to itemize work in invoices.
Creating invoices, tracking expenses and payments can often take the focus away from getting on with building your business. Billings Pro saves valuable time and hassle by helping you to create professional invoices and track time, expenses, and payments from your Mac.
With Billings Pro, you can add unlimited clients and projects, and create professional invoices, while there are flexible billing options depending on whether you are charging clients based on time, project, expense, product, service, or a flat rate.
All of this you can also synchronize between multiple iPhones, iPads and Macs so that you can manage your business on the move.
Sending invoices is a vital task if you ever expect to make any money as a contractor or freelancer. Fortunately, numerous invoicing applications on OS X can turn this mundane task into a streamlined and efficient process – often also creating great looking invoices.
Today we'll be taking a look at 7 examples of invoicing software for the Mac, ranging from very simple tools such as Involer through to a more complicated SaaS packages. Most applications come with a small cost, but ultimately could save you money by making sure all of your invoices are managed properly and accounted for.
Marketcircle's Billings was discontinued in June 2013 in favour of their subscription-based Billings Pro, an app which we've reviewed and think is awesome. Subscription-based software isn't for everyone, however, and we've been frequently asked to recommend some alternative apps to Billings Pro that doesn't require any recurring costs.
If you're looking for an invoicing or time tracking app to replace Billings, or perhaps simply want to know what's out there, here's the 10 best simple time tracking and invoicing apps on the Mac today.
In this Quick Look, we're highlighting Busy Bee Invoicing. The developer describes Busy Bee Invoicing as a great tool to simplify your invoicing. Busy Bee Invoicing is ideal for small businesses and contractors, and lets you quickly create professional invoices and quotes.
It is fairly inexpensive, with no monthly fees – once you purchase a full license you will automatically receive all future updates free. Read on for more information and screenshots!
Dear freelancer, listen up – this is important: You need to track your time and expenses. Nowhere is the axiom "time is money" more obviously true than in the life of a freelancer. If you don't pay enough attention, you will find money dribbling away – in unbilled hours you spend on projects, and in the extras that you could be claiming (travel and other expenses). That's where time-tracking software becomes useful.
I freelanced for a very long time before I ever used such an application, and my experience is that having one makes life a whole lot easier: I know where I'm spending my time; I've calculated hourly rates that work for me, so I know which projects are worth continuing with, and which I should set aside; and I'm easily able to generate good looking, professional invoices.
There are many different applications available for Mac users, as well as some great online options. I tried a few, before settling on Marketcircle's Billings 3, which has been my time tracking app of choice for most of the past two years. Stunt Software released On The Job 3.0 a little over a year ago, and although it's been mentioned a few times on Mac.AppStorm, we've never given it a proper review. So, with no further ado, join me after the jump, and I'll tell you why I'm switching.
Today, I'll be taking a look at TimeNet, a long-standing player in the field of time tracking and project management. The application allows you to take control of your clients and projects, easily send invoices, and stay on top of who owes you what.
It offers a fairly simple window-based interface, to show you only the information you need at any given time. This makes it pleasant to navigate, and slightly different from more complex competitors.

This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Psalm (My God's Enough) (feat. Todd Agnew)
This song reflects the theme of Psalm 73. The part at the end performed by Todd Agnew is very close, with Psalm 73:25-26 reading: "Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever." (NIV) If you like this song, please read the Psalm for which it's named.

Who knew Ethan Hawke was such a box office draw? The 42-year-old scored his biggest opening to date with The Purge. The film which cost only $3 million to make, shattered all industry expectations by raking in a massive $36.4 million. Not too shabby. Long term prospects for the film don't look too optimistic though. It dropped a discouraging 38 percent from Friday to Saturday and received a C CinemaScore grade. Still, Universal is going to make a nice little profit.
Hawke also did well on the indie circuit this weekend. Before Midnight scored $585,000 from just 52 locations for an early $1.5 million total. The sequel scored the highest per theater average in the Top 20 next to The Purge.
Also opening this weekend was Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson's latest film together. The Internship opened in fourth place with less than half of The Purge. Definitely disappointing given the marketing dollars spent on the comedy as opposed to The Purge. The one silver lining is the comedy earned a better CinemaScore B+ grade than the thriller. Check out the rest of the Top 10 below.
While summer isn't officially here for a few more weeks, it's certainly summer blockbuster time in theaters. Next month we've got two big comedies, a horror/thriller, a big superhero flick, and crime drama, which is sure to be a gem!
Check out my picks for June's must see movies below!
America is a nation reborn. Unemployment is at 1%. Crime is at an all-time low because one night a year, all crime is legal. It all boils down to surviving that night. Brought to you by the producer of Paranormal Activity and Sinister, The Purge is a thriller that follows one family over the course of a single night. The film reunites Ethan Hawke with his Sinister producer, Jason Blum.
"In an America wracked by crime, the government has sanctioned an annual 12-hour period in which any and all criminal activity—including murder—is legal. The police can't be called. Hospitals suspend help. It is one night when the citizenry regulates itself without thought of punishment. On this night plagued by violence and an epidemic of crime, one family wrestles with the decision of who they will become when a stranger comes knocking."
Joining Hawke in the film are Lena Headey, Max Burkholder, Adelaide Kane, Edwin Hodge, Tony Oller and Rhys Wakefield. James DeMonaco (Assault on Precinct 13) directs the film. The Purge hits theaters on May 31. Check out the intense trailer below. It sorta has a Panic Room meets The Hunger Games vibe.

"Kid, call me 'Nana' one more time, and it's fucking on…"
Love it
Please tell me this is via the miracle of Photoshop.
"This disguise only works when I'm standing in front of a window."
When your hootchie is aging and worn-out and you need a little more moisture down there, use AQUAGLIDE!
All those years my Nana complained the nursing home people were stealing her clothes and we all just laughed and thought she was senile. Who'd have figured it was Malkovich all along?
This is what we call a skort-off
"Mr Malkavik, why are you wearing a dress?"
"It's Malcovich kid, and this is not a dress, it's a practical unigarmet that disassembles social perceptions of gender fashion and presents a united statement of rejecting bigotry"
"oh, but is that a purse?"
"yes, this is my purse"
You destroy me, I literally fell of my chair laughing!
Looks as if John and his friend swapped clothes.
"Sometimes when my nana gets drunk, she takes off her wig"
Hooray for King Malkovich. Fuck the norm. Malkovich!
I am laughing too hard at this photo to come up with an appropriate comment.
John Malkovich appears to be winning the contest he's having with Steven Tyler on who can be the best woman. The purse was a great move.
Accessories are key.
He's filming his new superhero movie. He plays Lesbian.
This may or may not be part of the collection, but he believes himself to be a fashion designer and has been trying to get his own label off the ground.
With pieces of art like this I don't see how he could fail. The retirement communities in southern Florida and suburban Arizona are breaking their hips to get a look at his designs.
"Are you Ms. Doubtfire?"
Wow, michael Stipe let himself go.
"Some day, son, all this will be yours."
"The curtains?"
The number of people who want to be John Malkovich is rapidly dwindling.

So what draws so many people to this occasion? According to Olson, it's the cozy environment.
"To me, it reminds me of home," he said. "Everyone who walks away loves it."
This year, the three candidates campaigning for seats on the Fayetteville board will be available to talk to interested parties. Incumbents Dan Kinsella and Mary Coleman are running to keep their seats as trustees. Rick Suatoni is the only challenger. Election Day is March 18.

It used to be lipstick but for the past year I've just been buying a bunch of eyeshadow, mainly palettes. So that makes it add up.
BLUSH! You always only need so little at a time, and I don't wear makeup every day, so it will take me forever to finish even one. But I still buy loads and loads of it.
I'm a lipstick addict… mainly bright colors that I will not wear often enough to justify the price but they are my obsession nonetheless
ATM it is bronzers but I swap all the time
I tend to buy in groups ie; all eyeshadows or all lipsticks etc
blush! and nail polish 😛
hot pink lipsticks & glosses! well for lip products!
But in general Nail polish
Mascaras. I really have to control myself when it comes to buying them, or else I end up with too many and barely get half way through when they get tossed out. I impose a limit of 10 at one time and rotate through my collection every day, so they get equal use. I'm currently under my limit ftw.
Might be best that instead of rotating though them everyday using one up at a time, just for hygine reasons, from the minute you open them and use them once germs and bacteria get in.
Lipsticks!!! I have so many! In the end my friends and family know that they can come by and usually get a new lippie!
i'd say eyeshadows in general but recently it's becoming concealer and blush!
Brown eyeshadows and black eyeliners (all sorts- liquids, gel, pencils eyc), can't get enough! I'm forever on the hunt for that perfect one that will love.
Black eyeliners and brown/neutral eyeshadows here too! Im obsessed!
Nail polish…hands down!
I keep buying eye shadows. I prefer pallets just so I can get as many at once. In the end, I always fall back on purple smokey eye for every single occasion…
Lipsticks! Especially bright, hot pinks and classic reds.
Ugh. Not sure which tops out as #1. These are my repeated weaknesses:
– Facial Highlighters
– Red nail polish
– Eyeshadow palettes
Lipsticks in general, but especially deep reds and rubies. Enough that I'll probably never get through all of them.
Perhaps we need to form a support group?
Haha, I totally have the same thing going on! I just love those pretty deep shades of reds and keep buying them, but when it comes down to it, I'm actually too scared to wear it
Eyeshadows. I'm guilty. I think pretty much 80% of my makeup collection is eyeshadows, and I just rotate the same blushes and lipsticks!!
Eyeshadows, without a doubt. Mostly purples, greens and neutral colors. I honestly don't think I've ever gone shopping without getting some kind of eyeshadow. It's sad
I'm a blush and nude lippie fiend :/
Cheek products of any kind. Blushes, bronzers and I can never pass up a new highlighter…
1. Lipstick (They're my obssession!)
2. Powder Blushes (I look pale without a blush on)
3. Mascara (It's like a habit ever since college days..)
Limited edition lipsticks from MAC
Eye shadow and lip gloss. Its funny because I have more eye shadow than I could ever use and I HATE wearing things on my lips. /shrug
Coral lipsticks!
if nail polish counts, I'll go with that. I have a problem. I have a handful of colors that I use all the time, and most of the others rarely get touched.
I used to hoard eyeliner like no other. I'd use it all, so it was okay, but at one point, I think I had, like, 15 or 20 colors. if it was sold at a cheap price point (I was in junior high at the time), I had it. I was so proud of that collection hahah
