Experience youth and timeless charm in Montreal
An urban gem within the province of Quebec, Montreal embodies old-world class and new-world excitement in perfect balance. It's good to arrive with French-English translation and metric conversion apps already installed on your smartphone, as well as a map of the Montreal Metro, the city's user-friendly subway system. Architectural beauties, joyful bustle, mouth-watering cuisine, an Olympic Stadium, and several outdoor pools and parks will soon win you over in Montreal. This city of 18th-century cobblestone streets, 21st-century urban style and numerous festivals and attractions translates its charms readily into a language of traveler enjoyment.
What to see and do
Montreal gave the world Cirque du Soleil; when you visit the city, you'll soon feel the spirit that nurtured such an innovative circus troupe living on in the many festivals.
Montreal International Jazz Festival
If possible, time your visit to coincide with the 10-day, midsummer Montreal International Jazz Festivalthe world's biggest of its kind, during which large portions of the downtown area are closed to traffic to accommodate free outdoor performances. You can also purchase tickets to see some of the finest names in jazz at nearby indoor venues like Salle Wilfred-Pelletier at Place des Arts.
Montreal International Fireworks Competition
Another biggest-of-its-kind is the Montreal International Fireworks Competition that runs for more than a month during the summer. While you can pay for an ideal viewing spot at La Ronde, a Six Flags-owned amusement park on an island in the St. Lawrence River, you'll also have a spectacular outlook if you follow the locals to any of the free locations on either side of the river or on the Jacques Cartier Bridge, which closes to traffic. Add a splash of color to your trip at this fabulous night sky display.
With dozens of other festivals going on throughout the year, take your pick: the Just for Laughs Comedy Festival, the Montreal World Film Festival, plus many other surprising and often quirky choices are there for your entertainment.
The Montreal Botanical Garden, Planetarium, Biodome and Insectarium together form the largest grouping of natural history museums in Canada, and should be on every visitor's itinerary. They are set inside the old Olympic Stadium, where a tour allows guests to step inside the stands for an insight into the events, athletics, trade shows and concerts that have taken place on-site.
Combine a trip to St. Joseph's Oratory, Canada's largest church, with an exploration of Mount Royal park in the center of the city. Mount Royal was designed by 19th-century landscape architect Frederick Law Olmstead, creator of New York's Central Park and Boston's Emerald Necklace. Be sure to check out other famous churches such as Notre Dame Cathedral and the Cathedral of Marie-Reine-du-Monde as well as the Museum of Fine Arts on Sherbrooke Street West.
Within North America, only New York City has more restaurants per capita than Montreal, so plan to try everything from downtown cafes and breakfast spots to any of the superb bistros and restaurants lining the historic streets of Old Montreal. French-style pastries as well as poutinethe signature Quebecois snack consisting of French fries, gravy and cheese curdsare both essentials. Schwartz's is a deli serving up original smoked meat, as it has for generations.
Outdoor dining is available throughout Montreal during the summer and is of the gracious, Parisian-inspired variety, complete with cloth linens and impeccable wait staff. You won't find just a few token tables squeezed onto sidewalks with traffic whizzing by; you'll instead discover a casually elegant, outdoor food culture. If you need to eat on the run, try a souvlaki or gyro wrap from any Greek eatery you happen to pass by.
Where to stay
If you want an authentic French experience, spring for accommodations in Old Montreal and enjoy the cobblestone streets, ornate wrought-iron trim, and historic stone architecture adorned with bright window boxes in summer. The Hotel Nelligan is a favorite in this district. Business travelers will appreciate the many fine downtown Montreal hotels, such as the Omni Mont-Royal on Sherbrooke Street, or the Loews Hotel Vogue on Rue de la Montagne.
Getting to Montreal
If you're driving to Montreal between November and April, be sure to check weather reports for snowy or icy driving conditions. Off-season travel discounts during these months can be worth taking advantage of. The Montreal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport (YUL) is located just 12 miles west of downtown and handles international flights to and from the Canadian city.

Lanorte, A; De Santis, F; Aromando, A; Lasaponara, R (2012). Low Cost Pre-operative Fire Monitoring from Fire Danger to Severity Estimation Based on Satellite MODIS, Landsat and ASTER Data: The Experience of FIRE-SAT Project in the Basilicata Region (Italy). COMPUTATIONAL SCIENCE AND ITS APPLICATIONS - ICCSA 2012, PT III, 7335, 481-496.
AbstractThis paper presents the results we obtained in the context of the FIRE-SAT project focused on the use of satellite data for pre-operational monitoring of fire danger and fire effects in the Basilicata Region. The use of satellite data was manyfold, to obtain: (i) fuel property (type and loading) maps, mainly obtained from satellite Landsat TM data, (ii) fuel moisture estimation (mainly from MODIS), (iii) fire danger/susceptibility indices as well as (iv) post fire effects including fire severity and vegetation recovery assessment. Results obtained during the first year of project (2008) suggested that the integrated model identified the main fire danger zones by means of the integration of fuel types with daily fuel moisture and Greenness maps. MODIS multitemporal data analyses enable us to dynamically estimate fire severity as well as to map fire affected areas and evaluate the vegetation recovery capability over time. The pre-operative use of the integrated model, carried out within the framework of the FIRE-SAT project funded by the Basilicata Region, pointed out that the system enables us to timely monitor spatial and temporal variations of fire susceptibility and promptly provide useful information on both fire severity and post fire regeneration capability.

Pulled Pork Recipe
Submitted By:from Reynolds.
Pulled Pork Notes
This is my favorite recipe for pulled pork. I love making it in the crock pot so it's almost ready when I get home. This makes a lot so it's great for leftovers. If the sauce isn't thick enough, top it with your favorite bottled sauce.
- 1 Tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 5-6 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 Tablespoon chili powder (I use hot)
- 1 teaspoon cracked black peppercorns
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 Cup tomato-based chili sauce
- 1/4 Cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 Cup cider vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/8 teaspoon mesquite powder
- 3 pound boneless pork shoulder, fat trimmed
Serves / Yields
8 servings
Preparation Instructions
Heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, cook until soft. Add garlic, chili powder, mesquite powder. Cook, stirring, one minute. Add chili sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, and Worcestershire. Stir, bring to a boil. Place pork in slow cooker. Pour sauce over top. Cover and cook on low 10-12 hours or until pork is falling apart. Transfer meat to cutting board and shred. Return shredded meat to crock pot and stir to coat in sauce.
Helpful Hints
The seasonings are to taste. You may want more smoke flavor, or add some cayenne for heat. The sauce is a little on the thin side, but if you make this a day ahead and reheat it, you'll find the sauce to be much thicker.

Trying to pick the winner of the Michigan vs. Michigan State game this year once again is a challenge-- I've had no concrete feeling about this one all week long. I think Michigan is a better team, player to player, pure and simple. But there are always other intangibles in this game and the Spartans obviously want to end their five game losing streak against their arch rival and have people feel good about them again. Their season has been one of four missed opportunities, but they can make amends with many of their fans if they can beat Michigan.
I don't think this is Lloyd Carr's best Wolverines team of his 13. And I'm not sure if Chad Henne is going to play all day at quarterback, if at all. Rumors abound that his shoulder isn't ready and he may not be able to play, even though he is listed as the starter on the U-M depth chart. If freshman Ryan Mallett is pressed into action, I'm just not sure he can handle the pressure of the moment. If he can, more power to him and it will help in years to come when he gets into tight spots as Henne's replacement. But a healthy Chad Henne would sure make it easier for me to pick Michigan.
So I pick Michigan State to win a game in the fourth quarter when the breaks finally go the Spartans' way. Michigan will turn the ball over or miss a kick or commit a key penalty and the Spartans will finally take advantage and win a game late. Who knows how they'll fare in the final two games against Purdue and Penn State, but somehow, some way I see Saturday being their day. Make it 24-22, Spartans and it's a party night in East Lansing into the wee hours of the morning. Michigan won't have Henne and that will be a post game issue. Michael Hart is probably healthy and he'll be tough as usual-- but without Michigan's quarterback at top strength I think that will give MSU just enough oomph to get over the top. We'll see.

Husker Rex Burkhead is a champion and it's not for his work on the football field.
Wednesday on Rare Disease Awareness Day, Uplifting Athletes named Rurkhead the Rare Disease Champion.
The award stems from a special relationship with six-year-old Jack Hoffman, and Rex's efforts to raise awareness for pediatric brain cancer.
Jack was diagnosed with has pediatric brain cancer last year and has undergone two surgeries to remove a brain tumor. Before Jack's second surgery in Boston last fall, he got to meet Rex last fall and the rest of the Husker football team.
They formed a fast friendship that's been going strong ever since.
During the online voting period, more than 76,000 people voted, many from "Husker Nation."
Votes and awareness the Hoffman family is thankful for.
Jack Hoffman tells 10/11, "Thank you! Husker fans are the best"
Andy Hoffman, Jack's father says, "We're just so overwhelmed by the outpouring of support from Husker nation. I find it ironic that 76,000 people voted and at one time Memorial stadium held 76,000 for a sellout. Husker nation did a phenomenal job here."
Andy adds, "What Rex has been able to accomplish awareness-wise is just incredible. It's such a serious issue and there's just no funding and part of the reason for that is because there's just been a lack of awareness. So Rex is really putting it on the national agenda and really there are no words to describe how huge this whole thing is."
The award does not raise any type of money, that's why the pediatric brain cancer and tumor community could use your help. If you'd like to donate you can click on the link below.

The Texas A&M-Corpus Christi softball team will take to the road on Tuesday in a non-conference double header against the No. 19 Texas A&M Aggies in College Station.

I was concerned to read your posting; as we both know, your order confirmation did NOT include 'white glove' delivery service.
Had it done so, you would have been charged something like $280 for delivery, which would have been noted clearly on your confirmation email.
You stated that 'white glove' delivery was agreed in a phone discussion with one of our representatives, however, in spite of several email requests from me, you would not respond with details of the time or date of the call. Had you done so, it would have enabled us to listen to a recording of the 'phone conversation - and address the matter immediately.
It saddens me greatly when professionals - no doubt highly-respected in their own field - contact me to assist with service issues, yet while I am working diligently to resolve them, continue to post unsupported allegations of poor customer service across multiple forums.
I trust that the agreements that were reached with you are acceptable, but if you need additional advice or support, you are most welcome to email me directly again: email@example.com

I'm normally much more of a red wine kind of guy (Syrah and Cabs, mostly), but this is truly one of my favorite wines, and the only white wine I seek out. Sweet, crisp, fruity, delicious, wet (i.e. not dry like so many whites). This is one of my favorite gift wines, as well - especially to my friends/family who love wine, and during the warmer months when a chilled white wine on the patio/beach is just what the doctor ordered. For the price, it's the kind of wine even the wine snobs I know love to keep on hand in the back of the refrigerator.
I normally drink Moscato but I wanted to try something that wasn't as sweet. I have tried some so-called sweet red wines but ended up forcing myself to drink them b/c of the bitter aftertaste. An employee at World Market recommended this today and I LOVE it! I'm going back to get more before the sale is over this Sunday.

Group holidays can be some of the best fun you can have but they can also be fraught with problems if you are not prepared. We have highlighted some of the potential problem areas when thinking about a group self-catering break along with possible solutions.
When booking your dream holiday cottage, think about the type of property that is likely to best suit all of your party. How many bedrooms is the minimum that will work? How many bathrooms and WCs? Would some of the kids mind sharing a room? If there are teenagers in the group then would a cottage with a games room be a good option? Many properties have two or more reception rooms which is great when adults and kids want to spend time apart. Think about whether you want a property close to a town and its shops and bars etc or whether you would all prefer a rural retreat.
The source of many a tiff on self-catering holidays. If you plan on eating in most days then it might be a good idea to plan meals ahead of your holiday. This might seem a bit over the top but if there are lots of different dietary requirements or just fussy eaters in the group then deciding ahead will save a lot of time. Getting all the food you are going to need delivered to your holiday cottage is a great idea also. The major supermarkets have most of the UK covered now in terms of home delivery so research into which ones deliver to the area your cottage is in and get shopping!
Meal times can be tricky when you have toddlers, hungry teenagers and grand-parents all wanting to eat at different times. Decide ahead of the holiday who is going to eat when and then decide who are going to be the lucky chefs! In our experience the most capable and willing chefs stand out in a group but getting everyone to do their bit is a good idea so everyone has a holiday from cooking at some point throughout the holiday.Washing up and general clearing of the dining room etc could be decided by a rota type system to make it fair on everyone.
Finding activities that everyone will want to do at the same time is sometimes a losing battle. It is best to just accept that there will be days when the whole group may not want to do the same thing and might split up for all or part of the day. Having some private time as a couple or family away from the group is not a bad thing. Offering to babysit each other's kids a few times throughout the holiday is a great idea for Mums and Dads in need of a night out alone.
Finding day trips for the whole group to enjoy doesn't always have to involve spending money on expensive entrance fees to tourist attractions. Simply packing a picnic and going for a walk to somewhere none of you have ever been can be a great and economical adventure. Differing budgets needn't be an obstacle to a great group holiday.
If you have any more top tips for group holidays we would love to hear them.
Happy holidaying!

I have a slight fondness for Jaya One. I don't go often, but when I do, I like it because its not crowded like Curve or One Utama. Its also the place I go for udon and hot soup (Marufuku!) and cheap drinks (RM50 for 3 glasses of Kilkenny/Guinness or beer). Not to mention there's PJ Live Arts where I occasionally go to watch a show or two.
After passing by this place numerous times and hearing things about this place (both hits and misses), we decided to hang out here before and after a show we were seeing. Before the show just for drinks and a snack, and after the show for a proper dinner.
The Bee's freshly-made House Lemonade (RM5.50) – The lemonade was recommended on Foursquare so I ordered it. And Yes, it was really refreshing and sourish, just the way I like it to be. No pic sorry.
Nachos Plate (RM18.50) Tortilla chips topped with Mexican beef chili, jalapenos, sour cream, avocado salsa and melted cheese – This one was nice too. The chips were nicely drenched in beef, cheese and guacamole and sourcream without being soggy. The chilli needs a bit more spices and I hardly tasted any jalapenos. Plus point : the cheese doesn't taste 'cheap'.
Tori Katsu Burger (RM15.50) Japanese-crumbed chicken with house-made Bulldog tartar sauce, lettuce, tomato and house-made aioli on a lightly toasted burger bun and served with fries – There were a lot of fries. The chicken is freshly fried but unfortunately turns soggy pretty fast due to the sauce on top. The homemade sauce was an interesting twist on a unique burger. Nice, but I preferred the next burger.
The Bee Burger (RM18.50) House-made 100% beef patty, beef bacon, cheese, pickled cucumber, lettuce, tomatoes and house-made aioli on a lightly toasted burger bun and served with fries – This came highly recommended on twitter. It's the burger at the back. I liked this much more than my katsu burger (why is the grass already greener on the other side? or in this case, the burger on that other plate is greener). The beef was not tough nor dry, cheese was nicely melted. I can see why its recommended.
My only gripe is that the burgers are a bit small. Especially when you think of places like Chili's or Carl's Jr that have huge burgers at about the same price. Also, way too much fries. Plus point is that plain water is free, they have The Last Polka icecreams and you can redeem PJLA tickets for 10% discount.
Will I come back? It's a big maybe.

You Can Do It Too day2 AM
Even though it was a cloudless morning, any day you greet standing on the shores of Mono Lake is a good day.
No clouds meant though that once the sun started to kiss the top of the tufas, light was hard
So I went into experiment mode in my contunuing attempt to perfect my technique for bringing into one frame all the light my eyes see. I learned some more today which makes it a double header of great, sunrise at Mono Lake and learning.
What's even funner is bringing new folks to Mono Lake for their first visit. RC was definitely one of the funniest. Be sure to check out his images and comments here.

The next problem was money. They have a lot of gadgets on the site that boosts your chance of getting a response from the other party (i.e. tools for "gifts" and other tools to ensure your message is delivered and read by the other party. HUH? That was part of why I paid for the subscription; not just to have access to the site. I strongly urge anyone considering joining Zooks, NOT TO; just don't do it. If I lose every bit of this $90.00 invested thus far, it would be worth it to know that I helped save others from this fraud.

The panelists include Commander Michael J. Dobbs, United States Navy (Retired), David Glazier, Professor of Law, Loyola Law School, Los Angeles, and Laura Pitter, Senior Counterterrorism Researcher, Human Rights Watch. Kroc School of Peace Studies Assistant Professor Dustin Sharp will moderate the event.

Hello! My friend Aleta from The Nail Junkie recently announced 4 brand new polishes that are Halloween themed! How exciting!! Included in this collection are: Candy Corn, Pumpkin, Frankenstein and Black Cat.
Artificial light, no flash.
First let's take a look at Candy Corn! It has a sheer white base with orange and yellow hex glitters. I layered mine over white although the base is buildable and can be worn alone. This is two coats of Candy Corn over OPI Alpine Snow, with topcoat.
Next is Pumpkin, a shimmery orange polish with green glitter. Pumpkin has a great formula and applied well. I applied two coats even though one would be sufficient! These photos are with topcoat.
Frankenstein is a swampy shade of green that has a jelly-like consistency and a golden shimmer. The glitter is not as dense, which I think is nice. It also applied well, this is two coats with topcoat.
Last but not least is Black Cat, a sheer black jelly with several sizes of black hex and holographic microglitter. This one can be worn on its own or layered over another polish. I chose to wear it alone so I needed three coats. I recommend applying thinner coats to avoid pooling at the sides. These photos are with topcoat.
What do you think of this collection? Frankenstein is my favorite, with Candy Corn and Pumpkin in a tie for second. My least favorite is Black Cat, I am generally not a fan of black polishes... or cats lol. Dogs rule, cats drool!! ;-p
The Nail Junkie Halloween Collection retails for $10 each and can be purchased HERE.

AbstractThe orphan receptors COUP-TFI and COUP-TFII are members of the nuclear receptor superfamily that play distinct and critical roles in vertebrate organogenesis, as demonstrated by loss-of-function COUP-TFI and/or COUP-TFII mutant mice. Although COUP-TFs are expressed in a wide range of tissues in adults, little is known about their functions at later stages of development or in organism homeostasis. COUP-TFs are expressed in cancer cell lines of various origins and increasing studies suggest they play roles in cell fate determination and, potentially, in cancer progression. Nevertheless, the exact roles of COUP-TFs in these processes remain unclear and even controversial. In this review, we report both in vitro and in vivo data describing known and suspected actions of COUP-TFs that suggest that these factors are involved in modification of the phenotype of cancer cells, notably of epithelial origin.

Meeting #9
Today's meeting covered a number of issues that I am having with the ethical clearance documentation and the methods section in general.
Whilst attempting to write up the ethical clearance documentation and supply as much of the materials as I could for the research committee, I realised that I have to know what I am doing in order to write out the protocols and the structure and design of the participatory design workshops. In attempting to ascertain the best way forward, I have had to do a lot of reading on a number of topics.
1. Mobile usability testing.
There is not an awful of of good literature on this subject, probably because this type of testing is still in its infancy. I did however find a guerila approach by Harry Brignall (of Dark Patterns fame) which I think may work.
2. Usability Testing (in general)
For these sessions (probably towards the end of the design phases of the web sites) there will be no workshops – instead I will have to spend a couple of days usability testing either at KU or locally to the participant. This is a shame as it means I will lose some time completing other activities, but it can't be helped as I cannot usability test en masse.
3. Recruitment (and general anxiety over any unproven methods)
I have also been reading up about methods used in recruitment of pregnant women (mainly to clinically based trials) and how effective they have been. I have interested in using social networking and other forms of online advertising, forums etc as well as print media and the good old poster and leaflet. However many of these methods are not been used with the recruitment of pregnant women before and I felt worried about using them. However Martin said that if it seems logically sensible to use a method that may seem suitable (based on existing literature) then to try it (but justify it).
4. Justifications.
How much to justify in the method section? So far I have scribbled notes on why I have chosen the elements of my method, but Martin suggested perhaps only the novel (or unproven) strategies be justified so that the method section is not the length of a book.
5. Teaching.
We had a discussion about the teaching module and assessment for it. I explained the observation role that Martin would have to undertake. I also discussed how I was going to change the exisitng material, content and approach of the lecture and workshop to accomodate various different learning styles and academic criteria. We decided that come September I would have some more workshops to teach so that I could continue with the next stage of the PGCE. Undertaking this module has also entailed a lot of reading as I try to get to grips with a the concept of reflection, learning theories, wider issues within education.
We have decided to meet again on the 16th of March.
Work to be done for the next meeting.
1. Completed participatory design protocol notes.
2. Completed recruitment material for participatory design workshops.
3. Peer and supervisor observation will have completed; feedback on those and view reflections on observations.

Monument Valley Rock Art
I'm not sure what it is about rock art, but I really love to find it, look at it and with 21st century eyes, try to read it.
At the same time, I try to make art of the art using the 21st century digital camera. The irony of such an act is never lost on me.
Light is very important. I prefer a soft, diffused light and if I don't have that, a side light. In this case we were in the shadow of a mesa so had a nice, soft light. Now for the life of me, I couldn't find my polarizer which I needed to remove the reflection of the blue sky. I didn't find it until I was back in the truck (wouldn't you know it) so I knew I would have to do a little extra finishing in post. The Feet (middle image) would have come out better if I had a polarizer from the start. Oh well, a reason to go back!

First Bites: How to instill healthy eating habits during your baby's first year
Is it really possible to instill healthy eating habits during your baby's first year?
Unfortunately, many parents fail to realize this or know how to make it happen.
During her first pregnancy, journalist Hilary Kimes Bernstein didn't know the health advantages or disadvantages of breast milk, formula, or baby food. She only knew she wanted the cheapest option that also was fairly simple. Once her son was born and she began making choices, Bernstein learned about the obvious health advantages – and disadvantages – of certain foods given to children in the first year of life through research and a lot of trial and error. First Bites is the book she wished she would have had during her pregnancy and her baby's first year.
With twenty-seven chapters, First Bites helps expectant and new moms understand:
Filled with understandable explanations of scientific research, practical solutions, and lots of stories from real-life moms, First Bites is a fantastic resource for new moms who simply don't have the time to do all of the research by themselves but want their babies to reap the rewards of a healthier start.
As an attempt to help feed hungry children around the world, ten percent of all First Bitesproceeds will buy food for starving children through World Vision.

Dr. Jessica Shireman and Dr. Scott Hewett were married Dec. 19 at Blue Ridge Presbyterian Church in Raytown, Mo., where the sanctuary was adorned with red poinsettias and white roses for the holiday wedding.
The bride is the daughter of Steve and Kathe Shireman of Kansas City, Mo. She was given in marriage by her parents and escorted by her father.
The groom is the son of Aaron and Lisa Hewett of Shallotte.
I am still amazed I knew almost nothing about chicken thighs until I moved here about 10 years ago.
We ate a lot of chicken breasts and whole chickens, but always thought the thighs didn't have much meat on them. Boy, was I surprised. Now I can't get enough of them. I can't even seem to over-cook them. They always come out juicy and tender.
Joan Leotta and Edith Edwards first became friends through the Writer's Block, a Wilmington-based writing group.
They soon discovered they had a lot in common—a love of history and a penchant for writing short stories.
It was just a matter of time for the two to collaborate on "Tales Through Time: Women of the South," a new book of short stories the two wrote and published together.
A reading and presentation of their new book is set for 2 p.m. this Friday, Jan. 22, at Hickmans Crossroads Library.
A 17-year-old violin and fiddle virtuoso wowed the crowd at the Odell Williamson Auditorium Saturday evening, bringing a blend of classical violin and traditional Celtic fiddle music to about 600 concertgoers.
The Brunswick Community College Foundation and Coastal Financial Associates sponsored the visit from Caroline Goulding, accompanied on piano by Alicja Basinska and Janine Randall.
All proceeds will benefit scholarships at Brunswick Community College.
This is a good time to review the planets; they have been on the move through the sky so it is time for a sky-wide planet roundup.
We are losing Jupiter; well not really losing it, we are just losing sight of it.
Jupiter is moseying into the sunset as the days pass. At least it looks that way, "danger science information ahead," as Earth orbits the sun, we change the alignment of Jupiter and the sun in the sky. As we move, the effect is the alignment of the sun between Jupiter and us.
We've just emerged from a stint of colder-than-normal temperatures that we've been sharing with most of the country. I don't know about you, but I could use a little mid-winter pick-me-up, a reminder that our short and relatively mild winter will be giving way to spring shortly.
Luckily, all I have to do is go and hang out in the backyard to find winter-blooming plants like hybrid mahonia and edgeworthia.
As many plants wind down for the year, camellias come in to their own. The glossy, deep green Southern aristocrats brighten the cool season with perfect blooms. We mainly grow two camellia species here: camellia sasanqua, a fall bloomer, and camellia japonica, the "common" camellia that flowers in late fall to spring, depending on the variety.
Ashley Elaine Suggs of Calabash and Justin Darrell Ward of Sunset Beach were married Dec. 24 at Lighthouse Mission Church in Calabash.
The Rev. Larry Ward officiated the ceremony.
The bride is the daughter of David and Susan Suggs of Calabash. She was given in marriage by her parents and escorted by her father.
The groom is the son of Vicki Cayton of Castle Hayne and the late Darrell Ward.
Mateus Buchanan of Calabash served as matron of honor.
Flower girl was Mackenzie Buchanan.
David Suggs, the bride's father, served as best man.
When I stumbled upon a transliteration of the beatitudes by Dr. Neil Douglas-Klotz, an Aramaic scholar, in his "Prayers of the Cosmos," I was struck with awe.
SUNSET BEACH—When her grandchildren were small, Anne Giordano used to make up stories to tell them.
The retired educator's gift for fictitious license recently re-emerged in the form of a new children's book, "Spencer, the Magic Rabbit."
It's a freshly published collaboration between Giordano and fellow Sea Trail resident and illustrator Marie Munn.
Noting it's her first book, Giordano said "Spencer" is the print rendition of a story she used to tell her granddaughter, Kellie.

Office of the President
Scientific Profile
Laboratory of Brain Development and Repair
Marc Tessier-Lavigne was elected tenth president of The Rockefeller University by its Board of Trustees on September 8, 2010, following an international search. He began on March 16, 2011.
A world leader in the study of brain development, Dr. Tessier-Lavigne has pioneered the identification of the molecules that direct the formation of connections among nerve cells to establish neuronal circuits in the mammalian brain and spinal cord. The mechanisms he has identified are important for understanding how the human brain forms during normal development, and are increasingly being implicated in a variety of other processes, including vascular patterning and axonal regeneration following spinal cord injury, as well as neurodegeneration such as that seen in Alzheimer's disease.
A native of Trenton, Canada, Dr. Tessier-Lavigne obtained his Ph.D. from University College London and performed postdoctoral work at the MRC Developmental Neurobiology Unit in London and at Columbia University. He has been on the faculty of the University of California, San Francisco and Stanford University and has been a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator. In 2003, Dr. Tessier-Lavigne joined Genentech, one of the worldís leading biotech companies, where he oversaw 1,400 people in disease research and drug discovery as executive vice president and chief scientific officer.
He is the recipient of numerous scientific awards and is an elected member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences and a fellow of the Royal Societies of the U.K. and Canada.
On February 4, 2016, it was announced that Marc Tessier-Lavigne will step down from his position, effective September 1, 2016, to become the 11th president of Stanford University.

Rye businesses that appeared to be noncompliant with the city's 2011 ban on disposable plastic shopping bags are feeling the backlash from local residents and environmental advocates.
The Learning Express, a toy store on Purchase Street, has suffered complaints about the store's use of plastic bags, but owner Jimmy Myers is quick to point out the bags the store uses are a type compliant with the Rye City ordinance.
"Everyone is trying to accuse me of breaking the law, which I never have done," Myers said. "I pay extra for bags that follow the code for the convenience of my customers."
Councilwoman Julie Killian, a Republican, confirmed Myer's adherence to the ban with the thicker, reusable material in bags used at The Learning Express.
While complaints against The Learning Express are unfounded, not all stores are in the clear.
Patisserie Salzburg, a Purchase Street bakery, was using noncompliant plastic bags when owners were informed recently of a complaint filed against them. Since then, employees have stopped giving the offending bags out to customers, but the bakery is still searching for a viable alternative.
"It's inconvenient," a manager at the Patisserie, said. "Some of our cakes are heavy, and paper just doesn't cut it."
Rye became the first community in Westchester to ban the distribution of plastic bags when the ordinance was written into its municipal law in 2011. Since then, two other Westchester communities, the Village of Mamaroneck in 2012 and Village of Larchmont in 2013, have followed suit.
In Rye, failure to comply with the plastic bag ban can result in a fine of up to $150, although businesses can also be let off with a warning.
Other businesses on Purchase Street are able to thrive without relying on one-use plastic bags.
Andy Ozgur of Andy's Pure Food said he didn't like plastic bags even before they were outlawed.
"Before the ban, we used 80 percent paper bags anyway," Ozgur said. "They're almost the same; plastic's not even cheaper."
Members of the community had conflicting positions on whether or not they supported the statute. Some felt it infringed on store owner's rights.
"It almost seems like it's rather stringent," Rye resident Josh Jacobs said. "It doesn't give store owners the freedom to conduct business the way they want to, and that's why I wouldn't snitch. I don't think it should be something mandated."
Others were more conscious of how plastic bags may affect the Sound Shore, and were willing to give them up in stores.
"It's not any more inconvenient, and I think it's really important," resident Laurel Stevens said. "It's for the environment. It's important to cut back on plastics."
Resident Patricia Cote has another alternative.
"I carry my own bag," she said. "I don't use the paper bags that they give me, because they're very flimsy."
Westchester County Legislator Catherine Parker, a Rye Democrat and business owner on Purchase Street, looked to the future of how residents will continue to adjust to the environmentally friendly abstinence of plastic.
"I do think that customers are glad to see that we're a conscious community and we're on the right path, especially being a Sound Shore community," Parker said. "Those bags end up in our water. I think [the ban has] been a real success story in the past two years."

Great!These are so much fun!
I bought them for our Greek festival , and they were so popular that I am ordering more for next year. I originally ordered them from Amazon and could only get 8. They were so much fun for the ladies to wear, I did not even have 1 for myself. Everyone wanted them! I was able to track them down to order them directly from this company and now I can order as many as I want ! Thank You!!
