Segt. Ordway set out again this morning with a party for the salt works by land. in the evening Sergt. Gass returned with the flesh of eight Elk, and seven skins; having left one skin with Shannon and Labuishe who remained over the netul to continue the chase. we had the Elk skins divided among the messes in order that they might be prepared for covering our baggage when we set out in the spring. our sick are recovering but they appear to strengthen but slowly. The common red deer [1] we found under the rocky mts. in the neighbourhood of the Chopunnish, and about the great falls of the Columbia river and as low down the same as the commencement of tide water. these do not appear to differ essencially from those of our country being about the same size shape and appearance in every rispect except their great length of tail which is more than half as long again as our deer I measured one of them which was 17 inches long. The Black tailed fallow deer [2] are peculiar to this coast and are a distinct species of deer partaking equally of peculiarities of the mule deer and the common deer. their ears are reather larger and their winter coat darker than the common deer; the recepticle of the eye or drane is mor conspicuous; their legs shorter and body thicker and larger than the common deer; their tail is about the length of our deer or from 8 to 10 inches the hair on the underside of which is white, and that of it's sides and top quite black the horns resemble in form and colour those of the mule deer which it also resembles in it's gate; that is bounding with all four feet off the ground at the same time when runing at full speed and not loping as the common deer or antelope do. they are sometimes found in the woodlands but most frequently in the praries and open grounds. they may be said generally to be a size larger than the common deer and that less than the mule deer. they are very seldom found in good order, or fat, even in the season which the common deer are so, and their flesh is inferior to any species of deer which I have evern seen.—
Sergt. Ordway Set out again with a party to the Salt works by land. in the evening Sergt. Gass returned with the flesh of Eight Elk, and Seven Skins haveing left one Skin with Shannon and Labiche who remained over the Netul to Continue the chase. we devided the Skins between the messes in order that they might be prepared for Covering the baggage when se Set out in the Spring. our Sick appear to Strengthen but Slowly I gave Bratten 6 of Scotts pills [3] which did not work him. he is very weak and Complains of his back.
The black Fox [4] or as they are more frequently Called by the N West Trader Fisher is found in the woody country on this Coast. how this Animal obtained the name of fisher I know not, but certain it is, that the name is not appropriate, as it does not prey on or Seek it as a prey—. they are extreemly active Strong and made for climbing which they do with great agility, and bound from tree to tree in pursute of the squirel or Rackoon, their natural and most usual food. their Colour is a jut Black except a Small Spot of white on the breast. the body is long, legs Short and formed Something like the turnspit Dog, [5] with a remarkable long tail. it does not differ here from those of the United States.
The Silver Fox [6] this animale is very rare even in the Countrey where it exists, I have never Seen more than the Skins of this Animal and those were in the possession of the nativs of the woody Country below the Great falls of the Columbia, from which I think it is most probably they are the inhabitants of the woody country exclusively. from the Skins, it appeard to be about the Size of the large red Fox of the plains and much of its form with a large tail. the legs I think somewhat longer it has a fine long deep for poil. the poil is of a dark lead colour and the long hairs intermixed with it, are either white or black at the lower part, and white at top, the whole mixture forming a butifull Silver Grey. I think this the handsomest of all the Fox Species, except a Species [7] of which I Saw one running, and Capt Lewis had a good view of another of the Same Species on the Missour near the natural walls. [8] The large red fox of the plains, and the Kit fox [9] are the Same which we met with on the Missouri and are the inhabitants almost exclusively of the open plains, or of the copse of bushes within the plain country. the Common red or grey fox of the United States is also found in the woody country on this coast, nor does it appear to be altered in respect to it's fur colour or any other particular. we have Seen none of the large red fox.

Wednesday 19th Feby. 1806. a hard Storm of wind and rain myself and Six [11] more of the party Set out eairly to go by land to the Salt works to bring in the Salt & baggage we proced. on to the praries crossed the prarie where the land is in ridges like the waves the frozen rain beat in our faces verry hard. we got on the coast crossd. a river where we waided to our middles and was glad to git in an old Indian house where we made a fire and Stayed all night. Sand flew & waves rold.
Wednesday 19th— We were employed in bringing in meat, and the sergeant and seven men [12] again set out for the salt works by land, to bring the salt and kettles to the fort. The day was very wet and stormy.
Wednesday Febry. 19th We had a hard Storm of Rain & high Wind, blowing from the So. West; this morning I left the fort with 6 of our party [13] in order to go to the Salt works, 〈in order〉 to bring the Kettles, Salt & Mens baggage to the Fort. We proceeded on about half way, when the Storm was so high in the Priari, & on the Sea Coast, that we could not proceed without suffering by the Sand blowing in our faces— and the Rain that fell froze & cut our faces likewise We Crossed a Creek, which took us middle deep, which benumbed & Chilled the party very much. We came to an Old deserted Indian hut, in which we made a fire. we staid at this place all night in expectation of the weather being better by morning.—

This test measures the level of thyroid stimulating immunoglobulin, or TSI, in the blood. A doctor can use this test to find out what is causing hyperthyroidism, also known as Graves' disease. Hyperthyroidism occurs when too much thyroid hormone is secreted by the thyroid gland. When this happens, the body's metabolic rate increases to abnormally high levels.
TSI is an antibody that binds to special receptor sites on the thyroid gland that normally bind to the thyroid stimulating hormone, TSH. TSH is the hormone that stimulates the thyroid gland to secrete thyroid hormone. TSI mimics the effect of TSH, thereby causing the thyroid to secrete excess thyroid hormone.
This test is normally performed to diagnose and evaluate suspected thyroid disease. It may also be used to monitor treatment of certain thyroid disorders.
To measure the amount of thyroid stimulating immunoglobulin, TSI in the blood, a blood sample is taken from a vein on the forearm or hand. First, the skin over the vein is cleaned with an antiseptic. Next, a strong rubber tube, or "tourniquet," is wrapped around the upper arm. This enlarges the veins in the lower arm by restricting blood flow through them. A fine needle is gently inserted into a vein, and the tourniquet is removed. Blood flows from the vein through the needle, and is collected in a syringe or vial for testing in the laboratory. After the needle is withdrawn, the puncture site is covered for a short time to prevent bleeding.
A person should request specific instructions from his or her healthcare provider.
Normally, there is no TSI in the blood. If TSI is found in the blood, this indicates that the thyroid stimulating immunoglobulin is the cause of the of a person's hyperthyroidism.

At a time when so many businesses seem to be nosediving into the red, it is only appropriate for lovers of wine to follow suit.
Majestic Wine, one of Britain's biggest wine specialists, reported yesterday that people are drinking more and are prepared to pay more for it, suggesting that drinkers are realising they can get better quality for a small premium. Experts said that people are beginning to understand that when they pay £4 for a bottle of wine, only 46p of that is the cost of making the wine, with duty and shipping costs accounting for the rest.

King James vs. Air Jordan
The Chosen One vs. His Airness
Who's better?
The Miami Heat won the 2012 NBA Championship last week. It was LeBron James' first NBA championship, and he solidified his place as the best player in the NBA today as well as one of the greatest players ever. James has earned this championship, and he clearly deserves all the credit people give him.
But I do have one issue with this new championship. I've read many articles and comments about James being better than Michael Jordan at the age of 27. I know James is better than Jordan at age 27. He has accomplished more in the NBA at age 27 than Jordan at the same age. It's not a lie. It's a fact. But this comparison is misleading and unfair, because they didn't have the same number of NBA seasons under their belts at age 27.
Jordan had played 6 seasons in the NBA when he was 27 years old. James has played 9 seasons thus far. Also, Jordan missed 64 games in his second season because he was injured. James never played fewer than 70 games in a season until this year, when teams played a shortened 66-game season. So Jordan had actually played 5 seasons by age 27.
I don't think it's fair to compare a 9-season career with a 5-season career. It's obvious that a player will achieve more if he plays 9 seasons instead of just 5.
The best way to compare these players is to use the same number of seasons. Now...James fans will say that Jordan was 22 years old when he was a rookie and that he had an 3-year advantage in basketball experience, but these are the same fans that use the age comparison—despite the fact that James played more seasons than Jordan at the same age. I don't think that using the number of seasons is unfair.
Also, these fans say that say James was drafted right out of high school because he was so good. Well, if he was so good, why shouldn't we compare his first NBA seasons with Jordan's first seasons? It makes no sense, but it doesn't really matter. What matters is that they were in the same situation: They were rookies in the NBA. With 9 NBA seasons, they had the same NBA experience, so it's better to compare these players using the number of seasons.
So, who was more successful in the first 9 seasons?

NEW DELHI: Delhi Metro has been allocated Rs 5,181 crore, an increase of Rs 670 crore from the previous Budget, largely for construction of the Phase III corridors. It has also got an additional Rs 120 crore for expansion in Faridabad and Bahadurgarh. The allocation was expected as the budgetary support is crucial for implementing the ambitious expansion of Metro lines across the city, said sources in Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC).

Although the post-crisis economic recovery has been slow in most developed markets, the private equity sector appears in a state of cautious optimism as banking markets continue to recover. However, high prices for quality assets and a likely low-growth economic environment in the medium term in most developed markets will require General Partners to work harder and smarter to add value to their portfolios. This will require better operational understanding of targets pre-acquisition and likely more value enhancing intervention during ownership. Advisers will therefore need to have deep insight into the relevant business sectors and understand companies thoroughly from an operational and strategic perspective. In a challenging business climate, clarity is essential and we can provide it.

There was a moment in Chelsea's 3-1 defeat to West Ham United that summed up the Blues' need to bolster their attacking options.
Juan Mata played a decent through-ball for Fernando Torres to run on to, but he was matched for pace by none other than The Hammers' clumpy centre-half James Collins.
Probably through no fault of his own, the Spaniard is not performing and that is despite the conditions being made perfect for him to succeed at Stamford Bridge.
With £15 million Daniel Sturridge injured and attracting interest from Liverpool, and Romelu Lukaku on loan at West Brom, Rafael Benitez will certainly want to add to his squad when the transfer window opens in the New Year.
But there is a more astute recruitment policy going on at Stamford Bridge than meets the eye and Chelsea fans ought not to simply expect big-name, big-money signings.
Players like Radamel Falcao or Edison Cavani are not easy to acquire and might not be the right solutions to the Blues' problems, and Roman Abramovich can ill-afford another big-money flop.
Many experts believe Torres will be first-choice striker for the rest of the season, as Tony Banks writes in The Express:
"The aim at the moment is to buy to support Torres, with Abramovich still backing his £50 million striker."
Rafa Benitez will still have a significant war chest to delve into in January, though, so which young starlets can we expect to see house hunting in West London in the New Year?

Alma explains the journey that led him to Coran with emphasis on seeking the betrayer Bendon. He explains that he has several companions who are apart of the group.
"After we were attacked by the Werewolves, we tracked one of them here in Coran. We have currently lost the trail, but several have died at its hand. We are also searching after Morag who sent the werewolves after us. As of now, I plan to stay in Coran for a short time, so if you have need of me, I will follow."
What does the party want to do, if anything, before the appointment with Carise tonight.
|Markov Galan
As the time approaches midnight you arrive at The Dwarven Spirit. The building is very large and well maintained. The sound music and plenty of people talking in loud voices, laughter, and other merriment come through the windows and entrance.
Entering the building you can see a large number of people, mostly humans and dwarves, sitting around tables eating, drinking, playing cards or dice, and bellowing at the barmaids. In one semi private booth on the south wall a man and women are giggling at one another. Other booths along the same wall contain more patrons or are empty. Also along the south wall are two doors near the west end of the building, both are closed. Along the north wall is a large bar with two men behind it serving drinks to customers sitting at the bar and filling tankards which the barmaids whisk off to various customers. The barmaids are all similarly dressed in tight fitting, but otherwise modest clothing.
The room is well lit, though pipe smoke drifts through the air. Despite the merriment nearly everyone in the place has some kind of blade, cudgel, or other weapon at their waist or strapped across their back. A few are sufficiently drunk that you doubt they'd be much threat, or good, in a fight.
|Warren Enzroth
"I will stay back and cover everyone in the case of something going wrong."
Warren moves to the south-east table and discreetly slides a few gold pieces across to the patrons already sitting there. "You might want to find a new seat." He says quietly. Once they move off Warren sits down and draws both his sword and his bow--quickly laying them down in front of him to show everyone that he means no trouble.
Moving to R38. I will start by handing each of the two people there two gold, but will add another two each if they don't move.
|Irina Moretskya
Irina sticks close to Alma as they enter the bar. When he sits down at a table, Irina plops herself on his lap.
"Just blending in, sweetie," she says by way of explanation, nodding at the other canoodling pairs. "Besides, nobody ever seriously considers the bimbo on the man's lap as any kind of threat. Of course, if you ever try to think of me as a bimbo, I will naturally have to remove your eyes."
|Markov Galan
The man at the table Warren sits down at looks up in anger as a dagger appears in his hands. His speech is slightly slurred, "This 's a private kisshin' booth, now get lossht" he holds out his dagger for emphasis.
The woman laughs some more as she snatches up the coins and stuffs them down the front of her blouse. She stands and dances over to the next booth disappearing behind the wall.
The man swings his head after her, "Hey Jess, come back." He seems uncertain whether to follow after or to stab Warren for his interruption, but takes only a second to decide on the former and chase her over to the next booth, grabbing a mug off the table as he departs, sloshing a bit of dark liquid onto the table in his haste.
Some of the patrons sitting at the tables glance up at the rest of the group as you make your away across the room, and two men sitting with their backs to the bar watch as you take a seat. One mans face appears to have been burned recently, the skin of his left cheek and around his left eye red and blistered.
One of the barmaids approaches the table Alma has selected. Her voice is a bit forced to come off as cheerful, "What 're you drinkin' tonight?"
The barmaid gives Irina a sympathetic look before heading off to grab a pitcher of ale.
The door to the tavern opens admitting a halfling who heads towards the bar. The hafling is missing his left hand, a short spike where the hand should be. The hafling is followed by an elderly woman with the hood of a fine cloak pulled down close leaving her face in darkness and shadow. She is followed by a man in his late 30's with a great sword strapped across his back. Without hesitation the woman makes her way confidently towards an empty table P15. The man scans the room with his eyes before following. Another barmaid steps up to their table asking them what they'd like, followed by a few brief whispers between the barmaid and the woman. None of you are able to make out anything said though above the noise in the room.
A dwarf with several old scars on his face I33 openly glares at Warren, rubbing a closed fist with his other hand.
|Irina Moretskya
|Markov Galan
A man sitting at a nearby table K3 turns to look at Irina and Markov. The right side of his face is red and blistered, they look like recent burn wounds. He has a bemused smile on his face, "I think you can do better than that pretty lady" he calls to Irina with a bit of a drawl, "I don't think the elfing knows how to treat a lady."
The barmaid brings a jug of ale and three mugs, setting them down on the table. "Two silver she murmurs. Anything else?"
At the same moment the eastern door on the south wall opens outward. With the door opened outward into the common room you are unable to see into the room or who opened the door. However, the elderly woman immediately stands and walks over to the door and passes into the room, her escort following her.
At the other end of the tavern the dwarf who has been glaring at Warren stands and struts over to him. With a sneer on his face and loud enough to be heard across the room, "Ye lookin' for somethin' purty elf?" His hand caresses a battleaxe at his waist as he speaks. Another dwarf that is sitting nearby laughs, but the other patrons in the place only turn their head briefly then go back to their own business.
|Irina Moretskya
|Warren Enzroth
Sense motive to know how much completely he plans on cutting me open:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
If he isn't totally set on fighting, then I'll do this:
Warren looks up at the dwarf and smiles apologetically--Suddenly he is on his feet, his silver blade less than an inch from the man's stomach. His face gains a heavy sneer as he towers over the creature, locking eyes with him. "I don't know who you think you are--But I do know that you had better stay out of my way tonight. I would really hate to delay my appointment here while they clean up your mess."
Intimidate:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
|Warren Enzroth
|Irina Moretskya
The man with the burned face flushes with anger and he half rises from his seat.
As Warren reaches for his blade the dwarf slams his hand down on Warrens arm.
Grapple: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10
He is unable to get a good hold of him though or prevent him from picking up the blade. "This ain't no sissy fight with blades elfie. 'Sides the owner don't like elf blood on his floor." The dwarf steps back a few steps though.
At the dwarfs movements and words a loud roar erupts from many of the patrons and those closest to the dwarf start pulling chairs and tables back, beginning to form a crude circle aroud the area.
With the distraction the burned man sits back down muttering under his breath.
Alma, you are still a good distance from Warren and the dwarf
Irina, the dwarf is currently to far away for you to effect him with a slumber hex.
Moving into initiative, the party may act.
|Warren Enzroth
|Irina Moretskya
|Warren Enzroth
|Markov Galan
As Warren attempts to disable the dwarf with the flat of his blade the crowd jeers and boos at him. More patrons start crowding around and start placing bets on the outcome of the scuffle as Irina and Markov push their way to the front of the crowds.
Recovering from the daze the dwarf steps forward, fists swinging.
Attack Roll: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Critical Confim: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Non-lethal Damage: 1d3 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
I'll get a map up in a few hours. Party may act
Warren, you may take an AoO from his unarmed attack.
Updated Map
|Warren Enzroth
|Irina Moretskya
|Markov Galan
Growling the dwarf takes another hamfisted swing at Warren.
Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
Warren may take another AoO with his blade if he wishes.
As Irina and Markov step more into the center of the circle, away from the shouting and betting crowds another dwarf also takes a couple of steps in L34. He does not look quite as eager as his dwarven comrade though to be involved in a bar room brawl.
Several in the crowd call out "This ain't your fight."
"Let em have at each other."
Along with shouts of encouragement for both the dwarf and Warren.
The party may act
|Warren Enzroth
|Irina Moretskya
Markov stands and watches, his eyes still scanning the crowds.
Will save: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (20) - 2 = 18
The dwarf staggers from Warren's left hook, but manages to maintain his feet. He shrugs off Irina's sleep hex, or maybe Warren's blow kept it from taking hold. He takes another swing at Warren though.
Attack roll: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
He grumbles something in dwarven that sounds none to happy.
The crowd continues shouting, some laughing at the dwarf's inability to land a blow.
The second dwarf holds up his hands and takes a step or two backwards as Alma stands over him menacingly.
Party may act again
|Irina Moretskya
|Warren Enzroth
The door to the back room is closed.
Will save: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (8) - 2 = 6
With the next blow the dwarf slumps to the ground amid both cheers and howls from the watching crowds.
The cheering is cut short at the sound of breaking glass as something comes flying in through one of the south windows. It strikes the floor and bursts into flame, oil splashing along the ground. A couple of seconds later a second window breaks and another patch of flame appears inside the tavern, this one splashing several patrons. Shouts and cries of pain fill the large room, and many of the patrons push towards the taverns entrance. The two bar tenders both leap over the counter dirty cloths in hand, racing toward the flames and shouting for some of the bar maids to fill buckets from the well down the street.
As this is occurring the man with the burned face casually turns and walks into the back room where the woman who had come in previously entered.
The party may act
|Warren Enzroth
|Markov Galan
|Markov Galan
The crowd continues to surge towards the door, making movement towards the back rooms difficult for till they pass by you. As the crowds are nearly gone Alma feels cold steel slam against his back as two of the crowd turn and strike at him with short swords.
Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (4, 5) + 2 = 11
One of the short blades pierces his armor.
Warren has only just reached the front doors at this point.
L31 and M31 is the location of the two that attacked Alma in the back.
The party may act

Q: What led you to work with children?
A: I wanted to make children feel at ease and help them learn. I really wanted to understand children.

The Human Genome Project and the discovery of PCR has set the stage for countless advancements in our understanding of human DNA and its role in the diagnosis of disease. Nowhere is this truer than in the area of women's health. Pathologists and clinicians are increasingly turning to the power of molecular genetics for early and accurate diagnoses of disease.
New testing methods are creating opportunities to screen for common disorders affecting women, such as Human papillomavirus (HPV), Chlamydia trachomatis (CT), Neisseria gonorrhea (NG), Cystic Fibrosis (CF), Herpes Simplex Virus I & II and Inherited Thrombophilia (IHT). These innovations offer pathologists and clinicians the ability to add molecular diagnostics to their laboratories.
The conventional Pap smear only indicates the possibility of cervical cancer. The Liquid Based Pap test can be used for a more direct diagnosis when tested through a molecular diagnostic system like West Coast PAP.

The purpose and the users of your evaluation will shape your preference for internal or external evaluators. A combination of internal and external evaluators is the ideal solution, as it benefits from the dedication and insight of internal members, and the impartial objectivity of external observers and peer reviewers.
Evaluators may include:
In reality, ministries are often chronically understaffed or challenged by lack of capacity, and forced to use external evaluators. In this case, regular contacts between the external evaluator(s) and the IEA core team are essential throughout the IEA cycle.
Evaluators are selected by the IEA core team. They should have a good understanding of the IEA process, its intended impact and societal contexts. (Exercise 4.)

Former Bank of America (BAC -1.7%) CFO Joe Price will pay a fine of $7.5M and be prohibited from serving as an officer or director of a public company for 18 months to settle charges lobbed by the New York AG that he - along with other BofA execs - failed to disclose more than $9B of projected losses at Merrill Lynch prior to a shareholder vote on the acquisition. Former bank CEO Ken Lewis last month agreed to pay $10M to settle.
NY AG Schneidermann's office says it has evidence the bank withheld information from the federal government as well even as it sought financial aid.

Paloma Faith's "Fall to Grace" came in third, Emeli Sande's "Our Version of Events" was fourth, and Amy MacDonald's "Life in a Beautiful Light" rounded out the top five.

Purpose of review: To summarize recent findings regarding the effects of inflammation on iron (Fe) metabolism and to review studies detailing the influence of poor Fe status on physical and cognitive performance.
Recent findings: Hepatic expression and release of hepcidin, a negative regulator of Fe status, is increased by the actions of the inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6. Inflammation associated with chronic disease, obesity, and exercise is associated with elevated interleukin-6 and hepcidin levels, which may result in diminished Fe status.
Summary: Decrements in Fe status due to insufficient dietary Fe intake and/or the inflammatory response may degrade physical and cognitive performance. Future studies should clarify whether dietary or other therapeutic interventions to mitigate inflammation attenuate hepcidin-mediated declines in Fe status.

Though founded in Columbus in 1953, accounting firm GBQ Partners has stayed ahead of the times. The business that started in a modest East Main Street location has grown into a 126-person operation headquartered in a two-story, 34,000-square-foot Arena District office. A move from GBQ's previous Brewery District location in 2008 was prompted by a desire to democratize the firm's culture and appeal to a young workforce.

About Me
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WolfstarPhoto
Please have the courtesy of leaving a tag or an email first if you're going to friend me. Thank you.
I am an award winning filmmaker and published photographer. I love painting with light. I am building a varied portfolio of glamour and nude photographs. I like to work with a variety of styles and concepts. After all, the ability to do something different every day is why we all do this, isn't it?
I RARELY UPDATE MY PORT HERE. If you want to see my most recent work, please go to my website, www.wolfstarstudio.com
What I look for in a model:
1) Arrives on time and prepared to a photoshoot.
2) Responds to messages in a timely manner.
3) Has excellent facial skin complexion.
4) Doesn't need an escort because she has self-esteem, is independent, and wants to focus on the photoshoot.
5) Will disclose any discrepancy(s) regarding her MM account and her actual present appearance.
If you'd like to shoot with me, drop me a line at firstname.lastname@example.com and be sure to include your MM# and a good cell phone number. I always talk with my models before shooting; it's just easier to work out details than using email. Also, I do not pay models. If you contact me for a shoot, and I like your look and think I can use you, it will be TFP. Otherwise, I can quote you a price for your project. I do like to collaborate with the model on TFP shoots, I've found their input quite valuable.
That said, I AM looking for models for TFP work. If we do a TFP shoot together, just clear the day. I shoot all day long. We'll do at least 3-4 setups with multiple looks. Expect to put in 8 hours shooting. You'll get dozens of photos in a variety of styles and looks. If you're a new model with little to no experience, you should probably contact me. I am looking for a variety of female models between 18 and 40-ish. I have no problem with older models, and in fact some of my best models have been over 30. I have several shoots planned throughout the summer. I love to work with new models and those looking to build a portfolio as well as more experienced models.
I do not tolerate flakes. If you have to cancel or reschedule, call or email me at least two days before and do so. Calling the day of and telling me you don't have gas money, don't have a ride, have something else scheduled, don't feel like it, your mom, dad, grandma or goldfish died or were struck by lighting or run over by a speeding turtle is considered a flake. If you flake I will not reschedule you. I, and indeed any other photographer, spend hours preparing for a shoot (as well as our assistants, MUAs, etc) and many hours more retouching photos afterwards, not to mention the time spent shooting. Respect me and my time and I will respect you and yours.
A note on escorts
I am willing to work with just about anyone, but I do not allow escorts or chaperones . For the full explanation why, please read these wonderfully written blog entries by model Rachel Jay:

- This article is about the fictional city of Toons. For the themed land, see Mickey's Toontown. For the online game, see Toontown Online.
- "What's wrong with Toontown? Every joe loves Toontown!"
- ―R.K. Maroon to Eddie Valiant.
Toontown is a city near Los Angeles, California where animated characters, known as Toons, live.
Around 1947, it was the target for Judge Doom who planned on destroying it in order to replace it with his own new freeway. In order to accomplish this, he murdered Marvin Acme (owner of the Acme Corporation and Toontown) who was going to give the ownership of the city to the Toons with his will. It can be accessed via a tunnel just outside of Los Angeles as well as right behind the Acme Warehouse.
Doom later murdered R.K. Maroon (owner of Maroon Cartoons) for almost revealing his plans to Eddie Valiant, the brother of Teddy Valiant, whom he killed five years before. However, after showing the eyes of his Toon form to Eddie, revealing who he was, his plan on destroying Toontown was put to an end.
DescriptionIn Who Framed Roger Rabbit, the whole city of Toontown is cartoonish, except for anything foreign to it such as people and objects from the real world, outside of it. Real foreign objects have also been known to become animated once being exposed to the Toon environment.
Not only does the city appear illustrated (drawn and painted) and animated, but the whole environment has an imaginary, fantasy, almost dreamlike atmosphere. Not only do cartoon characters live there but even the buildings, cars, plants, and such are all animated with their own personalities, speech patterns, stylistic movement, and other anthropomorphic traits that are impossible in reality.
Furthermore, humans are, more or less, able to experience cartoon physics or perform feats that contradict the laws of physics in the human world, seen with Eddie when he was flattened in an elevator. Due to the erratic nature of the Toon World, Toontown was considered to be both remarkably fun and extremely dangerous for humans.
In the television show Bonkers in the episode "Imagine That", Toontown is depicted as a portal from the real world to an alternate dimension known as the "Tooniverse".
Residents of Toontown
With the exception of the characters appearing or created specifically for the movie, all cartoon characters ever created (ranging from the 1900s to the present) live in Toontown.
Behind the Scenes
Toontown is a cartoon city created by author Gary K. Wolf. It was present in his 1981 novel Who Censored Roger Rabbit, but only in brief mentions. It served as the central setting and reached a wider audience in the novel's loose 1988 Disney film adaptation Who Framed Roger Rabbit. It won four Academy Awards, and Roger was featured in three subsequent animated shorts, 1989's Tummy Trouble, 1990's Roller Coaster Rabbit, and 1993's Trail Mix-Up.
Toontown served as the setting for Disney's television series Bonkers and House of Mouse. However, the version of Toontown seen in House of Mouse is quite different from the version of the original film: while in the original film, toons are just actors (Baby Herman hasn't the same personality in his films and in reality), while in House of Mouse they have the same personality and roles off-camera as they do in their films (Jafar's really bad, etc.).
It could be possible that it was the setting for the scenes in The Lion King 1½ where Timon and Pumbaa are watching the film, due to the appearance of several other Disney characters joining to watch it with them at the end.
Toontown has been reproduced in Disney theme parks as Mickey's Toontown. According to the backstory written for Mickey's Toontown, Toontown was a Toon suburb that Mickey and his friends moved to in the 1930s, and had long secretly existed right behind Disneyland before Mickey eventually decided to allow Disneyland's guests to visit Toontown. Some rides were suggested for Mickey's Toontown around 1990, many of them featuring the characters from Who Framed Roger Rabbit. However, only one was actually completed - Roger Rabbit's Car Toon Spin. The others suggested that one plan included:
- Toontown Trolley, a ride that would have introduced a new fantasy dimension to the simulator technology made popular by "Star Tours." Roger Rabbit would take guests on a wild ride through Toontown, first seen in the Touchstone Pictures release, Who Framed Roger Rabbit? executive-produced by Steven Spielberg.
- Baby Herman's Runaway Baby Buggy Ride, inspired by the misadventures of Baby Herman and Roger Rabbit in the Disney cartoon short Tummy Trouble, that was zooming through the sets of Toontown Hospital, fly down stairs, crash through doors, and bound over beds.
Commercial bumpers featuring a Toontown-based appearance were used on Toon Disney from its launch on April 15, 1998, through September 1, 2002.
Disney's game Toontown Online, the first MMORPG for children, which takes place in a cartoon world populated with classic Disney characters such as Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. It was introduced in 2003 and was said to bring the Roger Rabbit franchise online, though it did not include characters introduced in the film due to Wolf and Disney being engaged in a lawsuit over royalty payments at the time.
- Due to the similarities between Toontown and the similar-named Toon World (the world that Mickey Mouse, his friends, and other Disney characters live in the Epic Mickey series), it's possible that both worlds are meant to be the same. But unlike in Who Framed Roger Rabbit, the cartoons living in the Toon World appear to be oblivious to the fact that they are one made for people to watch (though this is occasionally contradicted within the game itself, as when Mickey is seen accepting an award, or the fact that both he and Oswald know who Walt Disney is).
- Outside of being mentioned in the theme song, the term Toontown is actually never used on Bonkers.

Welcome Catholic Moms! › Forums › Raising Great Kids! › Any VBAC moms? › Reply To: Any VBAC moms?
I'm sorry Aimee, that's a really stinky reason to be pushed into a section!! *hugs*
I had a section due to "prolapsed cord," even though my water hadn't broken yet 😕 So I'm not sure what was really going, but the baby's heart rate was dipping and I had a healthy baby boy.
My VBAC was an AMAZING experience, I would encourage every woman to at least give it a go with a good doctor or midwife and a lot of information under their belts. I had a wonderful doula, who was also my Bradley instructor and dear friend, and the bradley classes themselves were wonderful. I went into labor naturally and had the baby on my due date, a nice healthy 9 pounder. He was nice and ready to be born, I really don't think my first son was as he came 3 weeks early. So that was a big plus of the VBAC. I did a lot of laboring before the big day, I guess its pretty common in VBACs. So that helped, I guess my labor was a bit shorter than it might have been had I not sort of done some work ahead of time. Labor was great after I signed the AMA and got in the shower to labor, next time I will DEFINITELY labor in a tub!! I had to sign the AMA b/c they had me hooked to the monitors constantly, and I was not handling laying still well. They had to break my water when I was complete, and soon after I had strong urges to push and 45 minutes after that began Gabriel was here!
I'd definitely encourage women, like I said, to at least give it a try. I remember saying right after the baby was born that I'd go through natural labor and birth 10 times over than go through one cesarean section again! My heart breaks for moms who can't birth as God intended, its an incredible sacrifice for your children to go through surgery to bring them into the world.

AUSTIN, Texas – April 7, 2010 - Design engineers in the electronics industry who are seeking
ways to improve power integrity and reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) while meeting
halogen-free requirements now have a new solution to meet their needs. The 3M Electronic
Solutions Division now offers halogen-free* versions of its Embedded Capacitance Material
3M's ECM is a thin, high-performance capacitor laminate, which can be embedded into
printed circuit boards (PCBs) and computer chip packages to reduce impedance, power bus noise,
PCB EMI and discrete capacitor count. It allows design engineers to differentiate their products
through dramatically improved performance and reduced size. The material has been used
successfully in applications for a variety of industries, including telecommunications, computer
hardware, test and measurement, military/aerospace, medical and consumer electronics.
3M developed new ECM versions that exclude the use of halogen compounds without
sacrificing performance in response to industry concerns over the environmental effects of
halogens. Halogen compounds, commonly used in plastics, can potentially release corrosive gases
when burned.
Halogen-free ECM from 3M is compatible with standard rigid and flexible printed circuit
board processing, including laser drilling. Fabricators and OEMs worldwide may use 3M's ECM
without purchasing a license from 3M. The material is RoHS compliant**.

This article: Women are interested in what you think of them, only if it's positive and creates interest and attraction.
Here are three ideas about complimenting women that I'd like to address:
1) The idea that women love to be complimented.
2) The idea that women spend all of the time and energy getting ready and fixing themselves up because they want compliments.
3) The difference between complimenting a "special" girl and complimenting just any girl.
Here are a few things to keep in mind as you read my commentary on this letter and these different topics:
1) We humans (and I'm talking about women in particular here) don't always realize what we really want.
2) We humans don't like to admit what's really going on inside of us because it can be irrational and illogical.
3) It's very important to realize that there is a critical difference between a girl you've just met or have dated a few times and a special girl in your life.
So let's talk about the topics individually...
The idea that women love to be complimented...
Do women love to be complimented?
I think so.
In fact, I think that many really attractive women feed off of attention and compliments. The more attention and compliments they get, the better and more powerful they feel. It's an ego boost.
But... and it's a Butttt bigger than J-Lo's, this doesn't mean that a woman will feel attracted to you if you give her compliments.
Attractive women get compliments in various forms all the time. In fact, they're so used to getting compliments that it's what they expect. As a matter of fact, if you start talking to an attractive woman and say "Wow, you're really beautiful. I mean, you're like a goddess... are you a model or an actress?" etc. the most likely response you're going to get is her giving you the cold shoulder.
Because she got what she needed from you, and you showed her that you're just like every other guy out there that will worship her for her physical beauty.
As a general rule, you always want to avoid being mentally slotted into the "average" and "like all the other guys" category at all cost.
Now, I have
started conversations by giving a woman a compliment, but I never
let it become part of the
actual conversation. If anything, I begin teasing and making fun of her looks as soon as possible if she's really hot-looking. And I never give the compliment in a way that says "I'm intimidated because you're obviously very powerful and desirable."
On to idea #2...
Women spend all of the time and energy getting ready, fixing themselves up and dressing sexy to get compliments.
About 4 or 5 years ago when I was first learning about how to be
successful with women, a good friend of mine said something that
totally shocked me.
He said: "Women don't dress up for men, they dress up for each other."
I was stunned.
I couldn't understand the logic behind this for the life of me. It still makes me shake my head when I think about it.
As it so happens, I have lived in Southern California for a few years (San Diego and Los Angeles). This is a place where beautiful women from all over the world come to seek fame and fortune.
I have been able to see things and learn things here that it would have taken much longer to learn if I had lived in other places, because I can see how attractive women interact with each other more often.
If you put a group of attractive women together in a club or bar, and watch them carefully, you'll see something interesting begin to happen...
The women will start doing "catty" things, like looking each other up and down with disgusted looks, making negative comments to their friends about how other women look, and trying to intimidate other women with their eyes.
Most men would never notice this subtle communication that's going on between women, but if you look for it, you'll find it. The fact is that women don't like to compete with each other on the football field, they compete to be the most attractive.
Men could really care less what a woman is wearing or how she's dressed for the most part. Sure, it's nice to see a woman dressed well, but it's just not that important. But for women it's a whole different matter entirely.
Women, and especially attractive women, don't like the idea that another woman is getting more attention than her. And women can tell very quickly if another woman is more attractive... this leads to "bitch looks", negative comments, and other amazing displays.
To summarize, women don't spend a lot of time fixing themselves up to get compliments, they do it to compete with and impress other women. Ask a few attractive, well-dressed women about this and they'll tell you.
Finally, point #3...
The difference between complimenting a girl you don't know very well and
a "special" girl
My topic is women and dating.
Women and dating.
It's not "women you're in a relationship with" or "special girls" or anything of the sort. After you've gone out with a woman for a few months or so, and she proves to you beyond the shadow of a doubt that she's a great PERSON, then I think it's great to consider making her your "special girl."
And yes, the dynamics change at that point. You can be nicer... you can be more complimentary... you can do more thoughtful things... At this stage this kind of thing will have a different meaning (But don't ever turn into a wussy!).
But as I just mentioned, if you start talking to an attractive woman, and you immediately start with the "You are beautiful and I'm not worthy" routine, you shoot yourself in the foot.
There's a huge opportunity in these first-meeting situations, but most guys never even consider it because it's not what comes natural. The thing to do when you meet an attractive woman is to actually tease and bust on her a bit, rather than giving her compliments.
This effectively scrambles her whole program and causes her to lose her composure. It takes her off guard and shakes her out of her world... so you can actually have a conversation.
Remember the Mailbag recently with the guy who walks up to women and says "Your fly is open", then walks away? The woman always comes and finds him to say "You're a JERK!"... and then he laughs at her... and the woman winds up going out with him.
Verrrrrry interesting.
Do you think it would work the same way if he walked up to women and said "You're amazingly beautiful" and then walked away?
I think not.
So, in summary, you're right... women do in fact like compliments. But if you want to make a woman feel that magical feeling of attraction for you, then you might think twice about giving them too early on. Women like compliments that they have to work for a lot more than the ones that just come to them.
...and if you're reading this right now and thinking to yourself "You know, I need to learn this stuff about how to meet and attract women so I can get rid of that insecure and fearful feeling I have", then you're right!
I think that every man should invest in himself, and learn this skill. Unfortunately, most guys never take the time and invest in themselves... and they wind up going their whole lives WISHING that they could attract the kinds of women that they want.
Well, I used to be one of the guys who didn't know what he was doing with women. Now I'm one of the guys who can go out anytime, in any situation and attract women. What's the difference?
I took the time to learn.
And if you'd like to learn, then I recommend you learn the things that I learned first. It's taken me a long time to figure all this stuff out, and it's also taken a lot of time, effort, and energy on my part to put it all down on paper and on audio and video... so that any guy can learn from the things I've discovered.
I'd like to personally invite you to check out my materials.
Where, you say?
I thought you'd never ask...
You can start reading and watching the vidoes here right now.
I think it's important to learn THE BEST "techniques" and actual strategies for meeting women... from where to go, to what to say, to how to take things to a "physical" level smoothly and without "rejection".
If you want to learn how to meet the kind of exceptional woman that is "relationship material", and then KEEP her once you do find her, then this material will be priceless to you.
Find out more about the Double Your Dating techniques for meeting and dating women
...and watch it in action, learn it, and use it.
Talk to you soon,

Twitter Counter is the #1 Twitter stats site powered by Twitter. It all started in June 12, 2008 and we grew rather rapidly because of our Twitter Counter badge. The button is a nice small image that shows your visitors how many followers you have on Twitter. Within a year the button was on many many blogs around the world and we displayed more than 100 million buttons in one month. We track follower stats for over 180 million users now.
