This tutorial shows how to build a secure ASP.NET MVC 5 web app that lets users log in with credentials from Facebook or Google. The app is a simple contact list that uses the ADO.NET Entity Framework for database access. You'll deploy the app to Azure App Service.
On completing the tutorial, you'll have a secure data-driven web application up and running in the cloud and using a cloud database. The following illustration shows the login page for the completed application.
You'll learn:
- How to create a secure ASP.NET MVC 5 web project in Visual Studio.
- How to authenticate and authorize users who log on with credentials from their Google or Facebook accounts (social provider authentication using OAuth 2.0).
- How to authenticate and authorize users who register in a database managed by the application (local authentication using ASP.NET Identity).
- How to use the ADO.NET Entity Framework 6 Code First to read and write data in a SQL database.
- How to use Entity Framework Code First Migrations to deploy a database.
- How to store relational data in the cloud by using Azure SQL Database.
- How to deploy a web project that uses a database to a web app in Azure App Service.
This is a long tutorial. If you want a quick introduction to Azure App Service and Visual Studio web projects, see Create an ASP.NET web app in Azure App Service. For troubleshooting info, see the Troubleshooting section.
Or if you want to get started with Azure App Service before signing up for an Azure account, go to Try App Service, where you can immediately create a short-lived starter web app in App Service. No credit cards required; no commitments.
To complete this tutorial, you need a Microsoft Azure account. If you don't have an account, you can activate your Visual Studio subscriber benefits or sign up for a free trial.
To set up your development environment, you must install Visual Studio 2013 Update 5 or higher, and the latest version of the Azure SDK for .NET. This article was written for Visual Studio Update 4 and SDK 2.8.1. The same instructions work for Visual Studio 2015 with the latest Azure SDK for .NET installed, but some screens will look different from the illustrations.
Create an ASP.NET MVC 5 application
Create the project
From the File menu, click New Project.
In the New Project dialog box, expand C# and select Web under Installed Templates, and then select ASP.NET Web Application. Name the application ContactManager, and then click OK.
Note: Make sure you enter "ContactManager". Code blocks that you'll be copying later assume that the project name is ContactManager.
In the New ASP.NET Project dialog box, select the MVC template. Verify Authentication is set to Individual User Accounts, Host in the cloud is checked, and App Service is selected.
- Click OK.
- The Configure Microsoft Azure Web App Settings dialog appears. You may need to sign in if you have not already done so, or reenter your credentials if your login is expired.
Optional - change the value in the Web App name box (see image below).
The URL of the web app will be {name}.azurewebsites.net, so the name has to be unique in the azurewebsites.net domain. The configuration wizard suggests a unique name by appending a number to the project name "ContactManager", and that's fine for this tutorial.
In the Resource group drop-down select an existing group or Create new resource group(see image below).
If you prefer, you can select a resource group that you already have. But if you create a new resource group and only use it for this tutorial, it will be easy to delete all Azure resources you created for the tutorial when you're done with them. For information about resource groups, see Azure Resource Manager overview.
In the App Service plan drop-down select select an existing plan or Create new App Service plan(see image below).
If you prefer, you can select an App Service plan that you already have. For information about App Service plans, see Azure App Service plans in-depth overview.
Tap Explore additional Azure services to add a SQL database.
Tap the + icon to add a SQL database.
Tap New on the Configure SQL Database dialog:
Enter a name for the administrator and a strong password.
The server name must be unique. It can contain lower-case letters, numeric digits, and hyphens. It cannot contain a trailing hyphen. The user name and password are new credentials you're creating for the new server.
If you already have a database server, you can select that instead of creating one. Database servers are a precious resource, and you generally want to create multiple databases on the same server for testing and development rather than creating a database server per database. However, for this tutorial you only need the server temporarily, and by creating the server in the same resource group as the web site you make it easy to delete both web app and database resources by deleting the resource group when you're done with the tutorial.
If you select an existing database server, make sure your web app and database are in the same region.
Tap Create.
Visual Studio creates the ContactManager web project, creates the resource group and App Service plan that you specified, and creates a web app in Azure App Service with the name you specified.
Set the page header and footer
In Solution Explorer open the Layout.cshtml file in the Views\Shared folder.
- Replace the ActionLink in the Layout.cshtml file with the following code.
@Html.ActionLink("CM Demo", "Index", "Contacts", new { area = "" }, new { @class = "navbar-brand" })
Make sure you change the third parameter from "Home" to "Contacts". The markup above will create a "Contacts" link on each page to the Index method of the Contacts controller. Change the application name in the header and the footer from "My ASP.NET Application" and "Application name" to "Contact Manager" and "CM Demo".
Run the application locally
Press CTRL+F5 to run the app.
The application home page appears in the default browser.
This is all you need to do for now to create the application that you'll deploy to Azure.
Deploy the application to Azure
In Visual Studio, right-click the project in Solution Explorer and select Publish from the context menu.
The Publish Web wizard opens.
In the Publish Web dialog box, click Publish.
The application you created is now running in the cloud. The next time you deploy the application, only the changed (or new) files will be deployed.
Enable SSL for the Project
- In Solution Explorer, click the ContactManager project, then click F4 to open the Properties window.
- Change SSL Enabled to True.
Copy the SSL URL.
The SSL URL will be https://localhost:44300/ unless you've previously created SSL web apps.
- In Solution Explorer, right click the Contact Manager project and click Properties.
- Click the Web tab.
Change the Project Url to use the SSL URL and save the page (Control S).
Verify that Internet Explorer is the browser that Visual Studio launches, as shown in the image below:
The browser selector lets you specify the browser Visual Studio launches. You can select multiple browsers and have Visual Studio update each browser when you make changes. For more information see Using Browser Link in Visual Studio 2013.
Press CTRL+F5 to run the application. Click Yes to start the process of trusting the self-signed certificate that IIS Express has generated.
Read the Security Warning dialog and then click Yes if you want to install the certificate representing localhost.
IE shows the Home page and there are no SSL warnings.
Internet Explorer is a good choice when you're using SSL because it accepts the certificate and shows HTTPS content without a warning. Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome also accept the certificate. Firefox uses its own certificate store, so it displays a warning.
Add a database to the application
Next, you'll update the app to add the ability to display and update contacts and store the data in a database. The app will use the Entity Framework (EF) to create the database and to read and update data.
Add data model classes for the contacts
You begin by creating a simple data model in code.
In Solution Explorer, right-click the Models folder, click Add, and then Class.
In the Add New Item dialog box, name the new class file Contact.cs, and then click Add.
Replace the contents of the Contact.cs file with the following code.
using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations; using System.Globalization; namespace ContactManager.Models { public class Contact { public int ContactId { get; set; } public string Name { get; set; } public string Address { get; set; } public string City { get; set; } public string State { get; set; } public string Zip { get; set; } [DataType(DataType.EmailAddress)] public string Email { get; set; } } }
The Contact class defines the data that you will store for each contact, plus a primary key, ContactID, that is needed by the database.
Create web pages that enable app users to work with the contacts
The ASP.NET MVC scaffolding feature can automatically generate code that performs create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) actions.
- Build the project (Ctrl+Shift+B). (You must build the project before using the scaffolding mechanism.)
In Solution Explorer, right-click the Controllers folder and click Add, and then click Controller.
In the Add Scaffold dialog box, select MVC 5 Controller with views, using EF and then click Add.
- In the Model class dropdown box, select Contact (ContactManager.Models). (See the image below.)
In the Data context class, select ApplicationDbContext (ContactManager.Models). The ApplicationDbContext will be used for both the membership DB and our contact data.
Click Add.
Visual Studio creates a controller with methods and views for CRUD database operations for Contact objects.
Enable Migrations, create the database, add sample data and a data initializer
The next task is to enable the Code First Migrations feature in order to create database tables based on the data model that you created.
In the Tools menu, select NuGet Package Manager and then Package Manager Console.
In the Package Manager Console window, enter the following command:
The enable-migrations command creates a Migrations folder, and it puts in that folder a Configuration.cs file that you can edit to seed the database and configure Migrations.
In the Package Manager Console window, enter the following command:
add-migration Initial
The add-migration Initial command generates a file named <date_stamp>Initial in the Migrations folder. The code in this file creates the database tables. The first parameter ( Initial ) is used to create the name of the file. You can see the new class files in Solution Explorer.
In the Initial class, the Up method creates the Contacts table, and the Down method (used when you want to return to the previous state) drops it.
Open the Migrations\Configuration.cs file.
Add the following
using ContactManager.Models;
Replace the Seed method with the following code:
protected override void Seed(ContactManager.Models.ApplicationDbContext context) { context.Contacts.AddOrUpdate(p => p.Name, new Contact { Name = "Debra Garcia", Address = "1234 Main St", City = "Redmond", State = "WA", Zip = "10999", Email = "email@example.com", }, new Contact { Name = "Thorsten Weinrich", Address = "5678 1st Ave W", City = "Redmond", State = "WA", Zip = "10999", Email = "email@example.com", }, new Contact { Name = "Yuhong Li", Address = "9012 State st", City = "Redmond", State = "WA", Zip = "10999", Email = "email@example.com", }, new Contact { Name = "Jon Orton", Address = "3456 Maple St", City = "Redmond", State = "WA", Zip = "10999", Email = "firstname.lastname@example.com", }, new Contact { Name = "Diliana Alexieva-Bosseva", Address = "7890 2nd Ave E", City = "Redmond", State = "WA", Zip = "10999", Email = "email@example.com", } ); }
This code initializes (seeds) the database with contact information. For more information on seeding the database, see Seeding and Debugging Entity Framework (EF) DBs. Build the project to verify there are no compile errors.
In the Package Manager Console enter the command:
The update-database runs the first migration which creates the database. By default, the database is created as a SQL Server Express LocalDB database.
Press CTRL+F5 to run the application, and then click the CM Demo link; or navigate to https://localhost:(port#)/Cm.
The application shows the seed data and provides edit, details and delete links. You can create, edit, delete and view data.
Add an OAuth2 Provider
For detailed instructions on how to use the Google and Facebook developer portal sites, this tutorial links to tutorials on the ASP.NET site. However, Google and Facebook change their sites more frequently than those tutorials are updated, and they are now out of date. If you have trouble following the directions, see the featured Disqus comment at the end of this tutorial for a list of what has changed.
OAuth is an open protocol that allows secure authorization in a simple and standard method from web, mobile, and desktop applications. The ASP.NET MVC internet template uses OAuth to expose Facebook, Twitter, Google and Microsoft as authentication providers. Although this tutorial uses only Google as the authentication provider, you can easily modify the code to use any of these providers. The steps to implement other providers are very similar to the steps you see in this tutorial. To use Facebook as an authentication provider, see MVC 5 App with Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Google OAuth2 Sign-on .
In addition to authentication, this tutorial uses roles to implement authorization. Only those users that you add to the canEdit role are able to change data (that is, create, edit, or delete contacts).
- Follow the instructions in MVC 5 App with Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Google OAuth2 Sign-on under Creating a Google app for OAuth 2 to set up a Google app for OAuth2.
- Run and test the app to verify that you can log on using Google authentication.
- If you want to create social login buttons with provider-specific icons, see Pretty social login buttons for ASP.NET MVC 5
Using the Membership API
In this section you will add a local user and the canEdit role to the membership database. Only those users in the canEdit role will be able to edit data. A best practice is to name roles by the actions they can perform, so canEdit is preferred over a role called admin. When your application evolves, you can add new roles such as canDeleteMembers rather than the less descriptive superAdmin.
Open the migrations\configuration.cs file and add the following
using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity; using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework;
Add the following AddUserAndRole method to the class:
bool AddUserAndRole(ContactManager.Models.ApplicationDbContext context) { IdentityResult ir; var rm = new RoleManager<IdentityRole> (new RoleStore<IdentityRole>(context)); ir = rm.Create(new IdentityRole("canEdit")); var um = new UserManager<ApplicationUser>( new UserStore<ApplicationUser>(context)); var user = new ApplicationUser() { UserName = "firstname.lastname@example.com", }; ir = um.Create(user, "P_assw0rd1"); if (ir.Succeeded == false) return ir.Succeeded; ir = um.AddToRole(user.Id, "canEdit"); return ir.Succeeded; }
Call the new method from the Seed method:
protected override void Seed(ContactManager.Models.ApplicationDbContext context) { AddUserAndRole(context); context.Contacts.AddOrUpdate(p => p.Name, // Code removed for brevity }
The following images shows the changes to Seed method:
This code creates a new role called canEdit, creates a new local user email@example.com, and adds email@example.com to the canEdit role. For more information, see the ASP.NET Identity tutorials on the ASP.NET site.
Use Temporary Code to Add New Social Login Users to the canEdit Role
In this section you will temporarily modify the ExternalLoginConfirmation method in the Account controller to add new users registering with an OAuth provider to the canEdit role. We hope to provide a tool similar to WSAT in the future which will allow you to create and edit user accounts and roles. Until then, you can accomplish the same function by using temporary code.
- Open the Controllers\AccountController.cs file and navigate to the ExternalLoginConfirmation method.
Add the following call to AddToRoleAsync just before the SignInAsync call.
await UserManager.AddToRoleAsync(user.Id, "canEdit");
The code above adds the newly registered user to the "canEdit" role, which gives them access to action methods that change (edit) data. The following snippet shows the new line of code in context.
// POST: /Account/ExternalLoginConfirmation [HttpPost] [AllowAnonymous] [ValidateAntiForgeryToken] public async Task ExternalLoginConfirmation(ExternalLoginConfirmationViewModel model, string returnUrl) { if (User.Identity.IsAuthenticated) { return RedirectToAction("Index", "Manage"); } if (ModelState.IsValid) { // Get the information about the user from the external login provider var info = await AuthenticationManager.GetExternalLoginInfoAsync(); if (info == null) { return View("ExternalLoginFailure"); } var user = new ApplicationUser { UserName = model.Email, Email = model.Email }; var result = await UserManager.CreateAsync(user); if (result.Succeeded) { result = await UserManager.AddLoginAsync(user.Id, info.Login); if (result.Succeeded) { await UserManager.AddToRoleAsync(user.Id, "canEdit"); await SignInManager.SignInAsync(user, isPersistent: false, rememberBrowser: false); return RedirectToLocal(returnUrl); } } AddErrors(result); } ViewBag.ReturnUrl = returnUrl; return View(model); }
Later in the tutorial you will deploy the application to Azure, where you will log-on with Google or another third party authentication provider. This will add your newly registered account to the canEdit role. Anyone who finds your web app's URL and has a Google ID can then register and update your database. To prevent other people from doing that, you can stop the site. You'll be able to verify who is in the canEdit role by examining the database.
In the Package Manager Console hit the up arrow key to bring up the following command:
The Update-Database command runs the Seed method, and that runs the AddUserAndRole method you added earlier. The AddUserAndRole method creates the user email@example.com and adds her to the canEdit role.
Protect the Application with SSL and the Authorize Attribute
In this section you apply the Authorize attribute to restrict access to the action methods. Anonymous users will be able to view only the Index action method of the home controller. Registered users will be able to see contact data (The Index and Details pages of the Cm controller), the About page, and the Contact page. Only users in the canEdit role will be able to access action methods that change data.
Open the App_Start\FilterConfig.cs file and replace the RegisterGlobalFilters method with the following (which adds the two filters):
public static void RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilterCollection filters) { filters.Add(new HandleErrorAttribute()); filters.Add(new System.Web.Mvc.AuthorizeAttribute()); filters.Add(new RequireHttpsAttribute()); }
This code adds the Authorize filter and the RequireHttps filter to the application. The Authorize filter prevents anonymous users from accessing any methods in the application. You will use the AllowAnonymous attribute to opt out of the authorization requirement in a couple methods, so anonymous users can log in and can view the home page. The RequireHttps requires that all access to the web app be through HTTPS.
An alternative approach is to add the Authorize attribute and the RequireHttps attribute to each controller, but it's considered a security best practice to apply them to the entire application. By adding them globally, every new controller and action method you add is automatically protected -- you don't need to remember to apply them. For more information see Securing your ASP.NET MVC App and the new AllowAnonymous Attribute.
Add the AllowAnonymous attribute to the Index method of the Home controller. The AllowAnonymous attribute enables you to white-list the methods you want to opt out of authorization.
public class HomeController : Controller { [AllowAnonymous] public ActionResult Index() { return View(); }
If you do a global search for AllowAnonymous, you'll see that it is used in the login and registration methods of the Account controller.
In ContactsController.cs, add
[Authorize(Roles = "canEdit")]to the HttpGet and HttpPost methods that change data (Create, Edit, Delete, every action method except Index and Details) in the Cm controller. A portion of the completed code is shown below:
// GET: Cm/Create [Authorize(Roles = "canEdit")] public ActionResult Create() { return View(new Contact { Address = "123 N 456 W", City="Great Falls", Email = "firstname.lastname@example.com", Name="Joe Smith", State="MT", Zip = "59405"}); } // POST: Cm/Create // To protect from overposting attacks, please enable the specific properties you want to bind to, for // more details see http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=317598. [HttpPost] [ValidateAntiForgeryToken] [Authorize(Roles = "canEdit")] public ActionResult Create([Bind(Include = "ContactId,Name,Address,City,State,Zip,Email")] Contact contact) { if (ModelState.IsValid) { db.Contacts.Add(contact); db.SaveChanges(); return RedirectToAction("Index"); } return View(contact); } // GET: Cm/Edit/5 [Authorize(Roles = "canEdit")] public ActionResult Edit(int? id) { if (id == null) { return new HttpStatusCodeResult(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest); } Contact contact = db.Contacts.Find(id); if (contact == null) { return HttpNotFound(); } return View(contact); }
- Press CTRL+F5 to run the application.
- If you are still logged in from a previous session, hit the Log out link.
- Click on the About or Contact links. You are redirected to the login page because anonymous users cannot view those pages.
Click the Register as a new user link and add a local user with email firstname.lastname@example.com. Verify Joe can view the Home, About and Contact pages.
- Click the CM Demo link and verify that you see the data.
- Click an edit link on the page, you will be redirected to the login page (because a new local user is not added to the canEdit role).
- Log in as email@example.com with password of "P_assw0rd1" (the "0" in "word" is a zero). You are redirected to the edit page you previously selected.
- If you can't log in with that account and password, try copying the password from the source code and pasting it. If you still can't log in, check the UserName column of the AspNetUsers table to verify firstname.lastname@example.com was added.
- Verify you can make data changes.
Deploy the app to Azure
In Visual Studio, right-click the project in Solution Explorer and select Publish from the context menu.
The Publish Web wizard opens.
- Click the Settings tab on the left side of the Publish Web dialog box.
- Under ApplicationDbContext select the database that you created when you created the project.
Under ContactManagerContext, select Execute Code First Migrations.
- Click Publish.
- Log in as firstname.lastname@example.com (with password of "P_assw0rd1") and verify you can edit data.
- Log out.
- Go to the Google Developers Console and on the Credentials tab update the redirect URIS and JavaScript Orgins to use the Azure URL.
- Log in using Google or Facebook. That will add the Google or Facebook account to the canEdit role. If you get an HTTP 400 error with the message The redirect URI in the request: https://contactmanager{my version}.azurewebsites.net/signin-google did not match a registered redirect URI., you'll have to wait until the changes you made are propagated. If you get this error after more than a few minutes, verify the URIs are correct.
Stop the web app to prevent other people from registering
- In Server Explorer, navigate to Azure > App Service > {your resource group} > {your web app}.
Right-click the web app and select Stop.
Alternatively, from the Azure Portal, you can go to the web app's blade, then click the Stop icon at the top of the blade.
Remove AddToRoleAsync, Publish, and Test
Comment out or remove the following code from the ExternalLoginConfirmation method in the Account controller:
await UserManager.AddToRoleAsync(user.Id, "canEdit");
- Build the project (which saves the file changes and verifies you don't have any compile errors).
Right-click the project in Solution Explorer and select Publish.
![Publish in project context menu](./media/web-sites-dotnet-deploy-aspnet-mvc-app-membership-oauth-sql-database/GS13publish.png)
- Click the Start Preview button. Only the files that need to be updated are deployed.
Start the web app from Visual Studio or from the Portal. You won't be able to publish while the web app is stopped.
- Go back to Visual Studio and click Publish.
- Your Azure App opens up in your default browser. If you are logged in, log out so you can view the home page as an anonymous user.
- Click the About link. You'll be redirected to the Log in page.
Click the Register link on the Log in page and create local account. We will use this local account to verify you can access the read only pages but you cannot access pages that change data (which are protected by the canEdit role). Later on in the tutorial you will remove local account access.
Verify that you can navigate to the About and Contact pages.
Click the CM Demo link to navigate to the Cm controller. Alternatively, you can append Cm to the URL.
Click an Edit link.
You are redirected to the login page.
- Under Use another service to log in, Click Google or Facebook and log in with the account you previously registered. (If you're working quickly and your session cookie has not timed out, you will be automatically logged in with the Google or Facebook account you previously used.)
Verify that you can edit data while logged into that account.
Note: You cannot log out of Google from this app and log into a different google account with the same browser. If you are using one browser, you will have to navigate to Google and log out. You can log on with another account from the same third party authenticator (such as Google) by using a different browser.
If you have not filled out the first and last name of your Google account information, a NullReferenceException will occur.
Examine the SQL Azure DB
- In Server Explorer, navigate to Azure > SQL Databases > {your database}
Right click your database, and then select Open in SQL Server Object Explorer.
If you haven't connected to this database previously, you may be prompted to add a firewall rule to enable access for your current IP address. The IP address will be pre-filled. Simply click Add Firewall Rule to enable access.
- Log in to the database with the user name and password that you specified when you created the database server.
Right click the AspNetUsers table and select View Data.
Note the Id from the Google account you registered with to be in the canEdit role, and the Id of email@example.com. These should be the only users in the canEdit role. (You'll verify that in the next step.)
In SQL Server Object Explorer, right click on AspNetUserRoles and select View Data.
- Verify that the UserId is from firstname.lastname@example.com and the Google account you registered.
If you run into problems, here are some suggestions for what to try.
- Errors provisioning SQL Database - Make sure you have the current SDK installed. Versions before 2.8.1 have a bug that in some scenarios causes errors when VS tries to create the database server or the database.
- Error message "operation is not supported for your subscription offer type" when creating Azure resources - Same as above.
- Errors when deploying - Consider going through the basic ASP.NET deployment article. That deployment scenario is simpler and if you have the same problem there it may be easier to isolate. For example, in some enterprise environments a corporate firewall may prevent Web Deploy from making the kinds of connections to Azure that it requires.
- No option to select connection string in the Publish Web wizard when you deploy - If you used a different method to create your Azure resources (for example, you are trying to deploy to a web app and a SQL database created in the Portal), the SQL database may not be associated with the web app. The easiest solution is to create a new web app and database by using VS as shown in the tutorial. You don't have to start the tutorial over -- in the Publish Web wizard you can opt to create a new web app and you get the same Azure resource creation dialog that you get when you create the project.
- Directions for Google or Facebook developer portal are out of date - See the featured Disqus comment at the end of this tutorial.

"Chorley accident and emergency closes," this was the headline for most of the local dailies when the Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust recommended that Chorley Hospital's accident and emergency department be closed. This was occasioned by shortage of emergency doctors, which was putting the lives and well-being of patients in critical conditions at risk as most of them could not get immediate attention.
The hospital has finally re-opened its accident and emergency unit after nine months of inactivity. The department was closed on Monday 18th April last year and it was replaced with the urgent care center, which could only provide treatment for minor injuries and illnesses. News about its closure was however not well received by everyone and some locals formed a concerted campaign to oppose the move. Since then, on every Saturday morning dozens and in some instances hundreds of protestors could be seen outside the hospital, demanding for the 24-hour service to be re-instated at the department.
However, the management clarified that this was just a short-term measure which was caused by a shortage of professional staff that were required to attend to patients in serious emergency situations. The reopening of the department on 18th January this year came as great news for most of Chorley residents who have had to seek other alternatives in emergency situations. For instance, most of them opted for, or could be directed to Royal Preston Hospital, which is the nearest option that has a well-equipped accident and emergency unit operating 24 hours seven days a week.
However, it is important to note the accident and emergency unit at Chorley Hospital has just been partially reopened as it will be operating from 8am to 8pm and it will be running alongside the 24-hour urgent care center. With the trust's commitment to secure additional stuff, residents could see the unit becoming fully operational 24/7 again.

Reverend Tucker was a member of the Pentecostal church Christian Tabernacle of Grace.
Tucker welcomed Eugene Hoff into his church, but soon realised that this was a mistake. Hoff initially signed up for a Bible study, but after a couple of months he asked the Reverend for a more active role. Tucker made him the director of faith ministries. Hoff's discussion groups had nearly 100 members. He strayed from the believes of the church, when he preached that the serpent was Christ. After Tucker fired him, ten families left the church.

Buy-Sell-Trade Rating: (
just wanted to post a little more info on what im thinking my kit will include
tubular stainless top mount manifold with t3 flange and either a 38mm 2 bolt or 44mm wg flange depending on customer goals
3" stainless dp with 4 bolt t3 flange and two o2 bungs
stainless wg piping
2.5 or 3" aluminum hot side charge piping depending on power goals
3" aluminum cold side piping WITH maf flange and bov flange of customer choice
intercooler will probably be 28x8x3.5 with 3" inlet/outlet with all brackets
all couplers, t-bolt clamps, and oil lines/fittings included
oil pan with -10an fitting welded on
for duratec turbo intake piping included, not needed for zetec
i will not be including turbo, wg, bov, or air filter unless the customer requests me get these parts for them. i would be glad to include links or give recommendations on a turbo choice or if the customer doesnt feel comfortable buying these parts for any reason i can get them. but i am not an authorized dealer and can not buy them any cheaper than you and it would raise taxes and shipping prices to where getting them your self would save you a fair amount of money.
i am going to be working with borg warner on trying to become a authorized vendor for them soon. i am hoping i can offer their new EFR line turbos with my kit. if this is the case and i am able to get them backing me then i will offer 2 kits since their turbo's are set up different then most. i'll offer a kit as described above and another kit that includes the efr turbo w/ built in wg, bov, and boost controler which would mean no turbo, wg, or bov shopping around needed.
cold side charge piping will be routed behind driver head light and straight to tb not inside the frame rail
no tuning, tuning software/hardware, sensors, or fuel system components offered with the kit.
may also be selling a return fuel system setup for the focus after i get the kits complete.

'Prices are being renegotiated at the last minute, with buyers wanting reductions of between 5% and 10%,' said the Wimbledon office of agents John D Wood, proving that the problem has now spread beyond central London.
Friend & Falcke said that in Fulham 'the market is still nervous, with talk of recession and redundancies in the City'. In Notting Hill, Winkworth also found confidence knocked following 11 September. 'City job losses before and after the attack have had an affect on the market.' In Hammersmith, Winkworth said: 'There is a general unease and many people are delaying moving until the new year.'
In the suburbs, it is mainly expensive properties that are feeling the pinch. Corbett Altman in Pinner and Harrow said: 'Since 11 September houses over £1m have had a big knockdown.'
In Wandsworth, John D Wood said: 'Job insecurity and lack of City bonuses has meant little activity over £800,000.' Barnfields of Enfield are finding that homes are taking longer to go. 'Sellers are having to look at offers which until September would have been seen as low.'
In Hackney, Bunch & Duke said: 'There are fewer buyers, but Hackney is still attracting young buyers who cannot afford Islington or Tower Hamlets.'
Lower prices are also being reported from Croydon, Docklands, Southgate and Finchley.

text: BASKING RIDGE, N.J., April 17, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Verizon Wireless, owner of the nation's largest 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) network, today announced that it will cover more than two-thirds of the U.S. population when it introduces its 4G LTE network in 27 new markets and expands in 44 markets on April 19. With the new and expanded markets, Verizon Wireless continues to lead the industry in 4G LTE deployment, offering network coverage in 230 markets across the United States. By the end of 2012, the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE network will be available in more than 400 markets, and will be available to more than 260 million people in the United States. With the continued growth of the Verizon Wireless 4G LTE network, people in more areas of the United States will be able to take advantage of the speed and connectivity offered by the nation's fastest 4G network. Verizon Wireless currently offers more than 20 4G LTE-enabled devices, including the new Lucid™ by LG and the Samsung Galaxy Tab™ 7.7. "Verizon Wireless 4G LTE is the premier wireless data service in the nation, with more than six times the geographic coverage of our nearest competitor's 4G LTE network and now available to more than two-thirds of the nation's population," said David Small, chief technical officer of Verizon Wireless. "We will continue to introduce new markets and expand covered markets to ensure even more wireless users across the United States can take advantage of the benefits that 4G LTE brings to consumers, small businesses and enterprises." "This year represents a year of growth and investment in our 4G LTE network, which stands out by virtue of its superb combination of coverage, speed and the variety of devices that we offer customers."

Even in straitened timesthat's not good - 5 per cent plus should be attainable on that amount without having to resort to anything more restrictive than a decent postal account. Putting my cash into a new Tessa would pay even more.
Many thousands of savers with matured Tessas are similarly losing out because they're not getting their act together. In some cases the interest they're throwing away could approach pounds 50 each month.
When Tessas mature, the money isn't paid out automatically. The bank or building society that signed you up for your first Tessa will almost certainly try and get you to "roll over" into a new Tessa. But if you don't respond to this or other offers you'll find your money shunted into an account that's neither tax-free nor rewarding. At worst, you could be shifted from a double-figure interest rate to 2 per cent or less.
And don't rely on talk of better rates from die-hard societies that aren't handing out windfalls. Matured Tessa money with the Yorkshire earns just 2.35 per cent before tax, with the Nationwide between 2.8 and 4.2 per cent. By comparison, the Halifax, a bank-to-be which the die- hards would have us believe will increasingly milk its savers, pays a relatively generous 5.65 per cent.
My excuse for not reinvesting yet in a new Tessa is that I'm holding out for a fixed-rate deal of closer to 8 per cent. The highest now available is 7.5 per cent from Sun Banking Corporation (Best Savings Rates, page 14), but I reckon such rates will go higher sometime over the next few months. By comparison, with variable-rate Tessas, there's no reason to wait - rates are likely to get worse before they get better.
And if you don't want a Tessa with the same institution but feel tied in by the promise of a windfall, it may still be possible to improve on the given deal without hurting your handout. The Woolwich, for example, will allow matured Tessa money to be switched into a tax-free Woolwich PEP without reducing windfall eligibility, so long as you keep back pounds 100 in the savings account.

Police are also investigating a possible sabotage of his medical equipment while he was in intensive care.
Staff believe clamps may have been placed on two of the baby's feeding tubes.
The three-month-old boy, who has not been named, was found to have suffered a broken leg, ankles and feet following an operation for a bowel condition.
Health chiefs put security guards at the door of the baby's Rainforest Ward and another is now watching over his cot.
The child's mother, Sharon Chipperfield, of Clacton-on-Sea in Essex, now has to sign in and out each time she visits him.
Every hospital worker who treated the baby has been asked to provide the police with a statement about how they handled him.
After being told of the possible sabotage, Ms Chipperfield said: "It's awful." The baby had a routine scan after surgery which revealed a broken bone.
Doctors then discovered the other fractures after conducting a full body X-ray. He also suffered severe bruising on his left arm.
Police launched an investigation on 3 February after the scan results.
It is believed the injuries are about two weeks old.
A spokesman for the Met said: "We were contacted by medical staff at Great Ormond Street in connection with medical equipment used to care for the child which had possibly been tampered with."
Following discovery of the broken bones, Ms Chipperfield said: "I want to know who's done this to an innocent little baby.
"Whoever is responsible just cannot get away with it." Speaking of the shocking discovery of the child's injuries, she added: "He had been crying a lot and the doctor said at first they thought he could be one of those babies that likes attention."
Ms Chipperfield said that she and the baby had special tests to see if either of them suffered from brittle bone condition but they were negative. The tests also showed the child does not have a calcium deficiency and doctors admitted he must have been roughly handled.
Ms Chipperfield added: "I am devastated. The staff were fantastic through his operation but I just can't believe this."
Doctors said the bowel operation had been a success and expected him to go home within four weeks.
Grandmother Joan Brown, 59, expressed her serious concern at the incidents and said she welcomed press coverage as a warning to others.
She said: "I wouldn't want this to happen to any other child." Bosses at Great Ormond Street said they could not comment for legal reasons.
The baby has spent all his life in hospital units. He has been seriously ill since being born 11 weeks prematurely at Colchester Hospital. He was moved to East London's Homerton Hospital for blood tests before being taken to Great Ormond Street.
The injuries were about seven days old when they were discovered, meaning they were not inflicted in either Homerton or Colchester.

Deena Brand of Brand Realty Inc -- "Evil Lying Slum Lord" how TRUE!!!
SUBMITTED: Saturday, May 04, 2013POSTED: Saturday, May 04, 2013
I don't know Darron Dunbar, nor do I know you, Mr. Schwartz Wisot, LLP, --Supposed Owner of Brand Realty, Inc.
In regard to your last statement "Just because its on the internet, doesn't mean its true" -- That applies to you too. Knowing the cast of characters, I hedge my bets that 100% of what Darron Dunbar wrote is true, and 100% of your gibberish is questionable.
It would seem that you're out of your league trying to defend this power-hungry family with the last name of "Brand" -- who collectively have such a long list of fictitious business names I doubt they can keep track themselves.
Let's see, for starters there's Deena Brand, Deena E Brand, Deena Esther Brand, David Dore Brand, Dore David Brand, David Brand, Dore Brand, Rikki Brand, Ronna Brand, Rondini, to name a few -- and where exactly does Mr. Saul, Inc. fit in?
And where do you, Mr. Schwartz Wisot, fit in? Really? Can you provide proof that you're really the owner of Brand Realty, Inc? I wonder if Dun & Bradstreet could set the record straight!
Furthermore, during my 65 years I've learned that experience is the greatest teacher, and in that vein I wonder:
No experience? Then what could you possibly know?
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Mr. Reyzin represented us in a real estate matter. We were absolutely frustrated with our situation and did not know what to do. Mr. Reyzin was very knowledgeable and was able to explain to us what the issues were and how he could help us. When all of our efforts to resolve the situation informally failed, Mr. Reyzin was quick to file a lawsuit. He continued to aggressively prosecute our case until the other side finally agreed to our proposed resolution.
While the process was long and, at times frustrating, we are very happy with the results. We are very thankful to our attorney and his staff for all the hard work they did working on our case.
Posted by Alexander
I have known Mr. Reyzin for many years and have consulted him in regard to a number of different issues. I am always impressed with Mr. Reyzin's level of knowledge and responsiveness. I also had to retain Mr. Reyzin's services to respond to frivolous claims filed against me. Mr. Reyzin was very firm and assertive with the other side that resulted in dismissal of all the claims. I recommend Mr. Reyzin to anyone who need help with their legal issues.
Posted by Teresa
Our business was sued. We consulted a number of attorneys who demanded huge upfront fees without much explanation what awaited us. Some even told us that the only way out will be through bk. One of the business associates referred us to Mr. Reyzin as someone who helped him before. Mr. Reyzin was direct and forthcoming about the process and potential outcomes. There was no pressure, no scare tactics just a very informative consultation. After some deliberation we hired Reyzin Law Firm, and now that it is all over, we are certainly glad we did. It was a right decision both for us as individuals and for our business.

this guy is a lazy liar, who took payment from me, beat around the bush, avoided phone calls while I was being sued by another party. had to hire another attorney, and its hard to trust any1 after dealing with scumbags like this!Avoid this lawyer/liar at all costs unless you want to throw your $$$ in the wind!
Posted by David
Knows how to make the other side respond the way we wanted them to Not scared to take on the big law firms like many attorneys are.He took on a tough case and not only acted as my attorney representing me well and really pushing my cause. He also acted as a personal advisor helping me and my family learn to deal with such an emotiional situation.
Not like than a typical send me the money attorney he was more than fair with his Bills. He made me feel as I was his only client.
He also was very easy to get on the phone and keep me posted.
He became a family friend

Publisher's Description▼▲
In this six-session video-based small group bible study (DVD/digital video sold separately), Gary Thomas uses a unique lens to look at parenting, moving beyond raising great children to becoming more holy as a person.
What if one of Gods primary intentions for you as a parent isnt about successfully raising perfect children, but about you becoming more holy? In Sacred Parenting Gary Thomas illustrates how God can transform lessons in raising children into opportunities to grow in the image of Christ.
It will help you and your group, rediscover parenting from a different perspective: as a method of spiritual formation expressly designed by God to shape your soul in ways you could not imagine! This study will help you dig deeper into learning how God can transform dirty diapers, toddler tantrums, and a teenagers silence into occasions for becoming more like Christ.
Sessions include:
- The Soul-Transforming Journey of Parenting
- God-Centered Parenting
- The Hardest Hurt of All
- Embracing Our Insignificance
- Walking on the Wild Side of Parenting
- The Gold Behind the Guilt
Designed for use with the Sacred Parenting Video Study (sold separately).

Q: Sacred Parenting DVD/Participant's Guide needs Book, too? Do I need to have the book in addition to the DVD & Participant's guide? Or just the DVD & Participant's guide? I want to do this with a small group and am not sure what I need to order. Thank you for your help!
No, the book is not required for the study. Recommended reading from the book is indicated between sessions.
Q: Should all have a participant's guide? Is the participant's guide different than the online study guide? Thanks!
The participant's guide includes a devotional to read during the week, with reading assignments from the book, "Sacred Parenting" to help students prepare for the next session. We do not have the study guide available in an eBook version.

Indian industrialist and philanthropist Jamshyd Godrej discusses sustainable business opportunities in an interview with WRI's vice president for Communications.
Climate, Energy & Transport
Africa is home to some of the fastest-growing economies on the planet, but the lack of affordable, reliable energy could challenge continued economic and social development. Distributed power generation could be part of the solution.
South Africa's newly released climate plan pledges to peak national emissions that cause climate change by 2025 and goes further than other countries on adaptation by quantifying what it will cost to adapt to climate change in light of several possible emissions scenarios.
Negotiators from nearly 200 countries will convene in Paris in December with the aim of forging a legally-binding international climate agreement. The new pact will incorporate more ambitious national commitments to address climate change than ever before. But what is the proper yardstick for measuring success in Paris?
China committed to establish a national emissions-trading program, while the United States announced new actions to help reduce its emissions 26 to 28 percent below 2005 levels by 2025.
While dealing with sooty clouds from massive forest fires in recent weeks, Indonesia submitted its post-2020 climate action plan, committing to an unconditional target of a 29 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030, compared to a business-as-usual scenario.
President Xi Jinping's visit to the United States comes at a moment of high tension in Sino-U.S. relations. But amid uncertainty around China's economy and acrimony on cybersecurity, at least one issue holds promise for positive collaboration: climate change.
The newly adopted Sustainable Development Goals aim to eradicate poverty and spur economic growth while respecting planetary boundaries. Now world leaders face the difficult task of putting them into action.
Pope Francis's first visit to the United States marks a spiritual moment that brings an intense focus to the world's neediest. His arrival comes just as the new Sustainable Development Goals are about to be formalized and three months before the world is expected to unite around a global climate agreement in Paris. This trio of events may signal a profound shift for people and the planet.
It is impossible to succeed in today's economy without access to energy. But for an estimated 1.3 billion people, mostly in the developing world, electric power is still out of reach. Even among those with energy access, many still face unreliable service and regular blackouts. This is why it is so important that we push for Goal 7 of the proposed Sustainable Development Goals: "ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all."

Made from Polartec® Windpro® Hardface®, the Torre hooded fleece is specifically designed to fit women. This is a high-tech fabric, that maintains the stretchiness, comfort and feel of a traditional hoodie, but with added warmth and a DWR coating for weather resistance. Made in SF and in stock now at Mission Workshop.
I love products like this. Ones with multi-functionality built into a tight, clean package. The Mission Workshop Albion shirt is part down jacket and part rain jacket. While it doesn't pack down into a pocket, or completely protect you from rain, it appears to do a good job at keeping you warm and dry in cold, inclement weather. Check out more information at Mission Workshop.
We're live-streaming the Q+A with Curtis Inglis right here on the Radavist. At 6:30pm PST, tune in at the video above…
Curtis is the best and these series from MW are always a lot of fun… Here's the scoop!
"Join us on October 22nd for an evening with Curtis Inglis of Retrotec Cycles. Hear about his 25 years building bikes, SSWC08, restoring British cars, and everything in between. We'll kick things off with a ride* leaving the shop at 12:30 pm and return to beers and tacos starting around 5:30 pm, with Curtis taking the stage at 6:00 pm.
*The ride: It's a cyclocross ride. Bring a cyclocross bike and extra tubes (a road bike won't cut it). There will be rocks and singletrack with the route sometimes erring on the mountain bike side of the spectrum. We'll be riding in the east bay. Bring some cash for a BART ticket or meet at Rockridge station at 1:00 pm. Not to be missed. Here's the route."

One year after an 8-1 humbling in Honduras that signalled yet another early end to World Cup qualifying, there seemingly has been little to celebrate in Canadian men's soccer.
Canada fell to an all-time low in the FIFA rankings Thursday for the second straight month, dropping five positions to No. 111. The Canadians stand 12th in the CONCACAF region, which covers North and Central America and the Caribbean.
Going into the Honduras game at San Pedro Sula on Oct. 16, 2012, Canada was ranked 61st in the world and sixth in CONCACAF.
Today, the Canadian men stand a hair above No. 112 Antigua and Barbuda, whose population is some 90,000 compared to Canada's 35 million.
Canada is below Angola, Botswana, both Congos, Gabon, Guinea and Niger, to name just a few.
"I can sympathize with fans who are frustrated that we are not getting the results that we all want to get," said Victor Montagliani, president of the Canadian Soccer Association.
Montagliani, however, says the association has shown already it is "fully committed" to getting the national team games, as opposed to past years when the squad has virtually been put on hold following failed World Cup qualifying campaigns.
While Canada is looking at the 2018 World Cup, the CSA boss says the 2022 tournament and beyond may be more realistic.
"And unfortunately it's going to mean some tough results because you're going to be using a lot of players who don't have the caps or the experience to compete at the international level," he said. "And there are some realities we have. Our young players are not getting time with their clubs and those are things I think they need to fix as much as we need to help them to fix.
"But I think our approach is sound, in that it's long-term, we're not going to make decisions based on the way the wind blows in terms of popularity. Quite honestly I think we've done that too much in the past and we're going to make decision based on long-term health."
The FIFA rankings are not the be-all and end-all in soccer, but it's hard to argue with Canada's decline given results over the last 12 months.
The Canadians have gone 0-8-3 and scored just once since being thumped in Honduras. They have been outscored 16-1 and have only Marcus Haber's goal in a 2-1 loss to Japan in March to avoid a total shutout on the year.
As it stands, Canada has not scored in 12 hours 32 minutes.
The rebuilding job has fallen to Benito Floro, who has just three games under his belt since officially taking as coach on Aug. 1. With an eye to the future, his focus has clearly been on changing the national team culture while educating a squad that is brimming with youth.
Floro, a 61-year-old Spaniard whose coaching career has taken him from Real Madrid to Mexico's Monterrey, has used long classroom and videos sessions to educate the Canadians in his two camps to date.
"I think it's been great," said 20-year-old defender Doneil Henry.
"I'm definitely optimistic and positive for Benito," he added. "He's been great so far and he really does know the game."
Henry's optimism extends to the Canadian squad, which he sees as "a team for the future."
Henry, who already has nine senior caps to his credit, was one of four of Toronto FC players aged 23 or younger in the Canadian squad that lost 3-0 to Australia on Tuesday.
Other youngsters who saw action included 18-year-old Samuel Piette, 20-year-old Russell Teibert and 21-year-old Stefan Cebara.
"If we can start getting these players the professional experience they need at the international stage, it will definitely benefit us in the long run," said Henry.
Recent losses, while painful, have shown the youngsters "that this is a man's game," according to Henry.
"There's so much more to learn," he added. "Especially myself going up against, playing against top players in the world. These are the games that we need.
"It's going to build our character and build us as individual professionals in the long run. I understand that results right now are hurting us but eventually there's going to be a turn."
Henry is certain that with the growth of the three MLS teams' academies and Canadians continuing to go overseas, "we're going to eventually be there with the top countries in the world."
Floro, said Montagliani, is pleased at the reaction of his players to date.
"He's got a positive outlook," the CSA president said. "He knows that it's not a task for the faint of heart and that there's a lot of work to do but he's committed to the task."
Longtime leader Spain — the defending World Cup champion —remains atop the FIFA rankings released Thursday, followed by Germany, Argentina, Colombia and Belgium.
The Canadian men reached a high of No. 40 in December 1996. Canada last won in October 2012 when it defeated Cuba 3-0 in Toronto.
Montagliani said the Canadian men may play a friendly next month while the World Cup qualifying playoffs take place. There will be a January camp plus a March game, with CSA officials hoping they might get to play before the World Cup as well as opportunities in September, October and November.
Long-time leader Spain — the defending World Cup champion — remains first in the rankings, followed by Germany and Argentina. Colombia and Belgium are next despite not playing at the 2010 World Cup, which is still a factor in the rankings over a four-year cycle of results.
Belgium, Colombia and Switzerland will be three of the eight seeded teams at the 2014 World Cup because of their FIFA ranking. FIFA decided this month that the seven best-ranked nations in Thursday's list would be seeded alongside host nation Brazil, which is ranked No. 11.
Uruguay, a semi-finalist in 2010, is No. 6 on the latest list but must still beat 70th-ranked Jordan in a two-leg playoff next month to enter the World Cup draw on Dec. 6 in Salvador.
Switzerland is seventh, its highest position since 1995.
The Netherlands is No. 8 and will be seeded if Uruguay is eliminated. Italy is officially tied at No. 8, though it trails the Dutch by decimal points.
Seedings in the European playoffs were also decided by Thursday's rankings.
Portugal (No. 14), Greece (No. 15), Croatia (No. 18) and Ukraine (No. 20) will be seeded in next Monday's draw. France (No. 21) missed out by a single ranking point, 871-870.
Sweden (No. 25), Romania (No. 29) and Iceland (No. 46) are also involved.
The United States remains at No. 13 despite two victories in qualifiers against Jamaica and Panama. Mexico drops three to No. 24, and will face New Zealand — down 12 to No. 79 — in a playoff next month.
Ivory Coast, which beat Senegal 3-1 in the first leg of a playoff last weekend, is the best of Africa at No. 17.
Japan leads Asia, despite dropping two to No. 44. The other Asian teams at the World Cup are Iran (No. 49), South Korea (No. 56) and Australia (No. 57).

It was only after that, that I started to feel the cracks. I lost a considerable amount of weight over the next couple of weeks and had continuous anxiety attacks which lasted a little over a month. I felt ill and tired all the time and decided that I needed some time away. I phone my Auntie Sue and went and stayed with her for the weekend. She gave me the advice I needed and pointed me in the right direction and so, on my way home, I posted the letter which had written up there through his letterbox, making a brief stop at his house. I was tremendously relieved when his car – nor Chris' - was on the drive. I posted the letter, short and sweet, and walked away, without ever looking back.
Almost a month after the 19thof March, I still hadn't found anyone to buy his ticket off me. I missed him so much and I genuinely didn't know what to do with myself. I made the decision that I would just post the boarding pass through his letter box, and if he came to the airport on Tuesday, I would try my best to try and be friends with him. And if he didn't… then that was the easy option. The option which made most sense. I texted him on the morning of the 10thApril;
"I still have a boarding pass with your name on it…"
Since I had completely wiped him from everything I had, my phone, Facebook and my iPod, I was somewhat glad I had decided to write his mobile numbers in the back of my diary. It was something I did when this happened. I'd completely cut them out and try and forget about them, but keep the contact details in the back of my diary. Just in case.
I sent the message and waited for hours. As the late afternoon drew in, I decided that enough was enough and I was just going to drop the letter through the box whether he liked it or not. I was driving, trying desperately hard not to cry again. I had spent most of the last three weeks living on Rescue Remedy and essential oils, battling harder with my weight and inexplicable emotions when I didn't feel overly cut up about the whole thing. I got as far as Sainsbury's in Worle when my phone lit up with an unrecognised number. I pulled into the car park and took a deep breath before opening the message.
"Since you advised me that you don't want anything to do with me and that you were sending me the money for it, I'm taking mum away for two days."
I could feel my face screw up in an ugly mixture of tears and anger. If only he knew.
"Okay. Have a nice time."
I thought that would be it, but no. It kept coming.
"I'm friends with all my ex's I don't want that to change I hope that's okay with you, have a good time and if you could send me the money this week that would be great, I'll be thinking of you x"
There weresomany things wrong with that text. It made me laugh though. After three months of denying that we were an 'item', as soon as he broke up with me, that's what we became. How could I get just under a hundred pound to him in a week? I didn't have a nice job that paid alot. I hadn't been earning that much for 12 years, unlike some people… I'd said would get him the money, but it was going to take time. I wasn't going to let this go now.
"How can you break up with me if we were never together?"
"How can you split with me if were friends?"
"I didn't split with you! I walked away."
"Don't use your language on me…"
"I can take responsibility"
I could feel the Rescue Remedy coming out! A torrent of panic and anger hit me like a speeding train.
"I'm not blaming anyone!" I cried, finally… And that was it… Nothing. Silence.
Don't look back, at this crumbling fool…
Edinburgh was… Messy and the best fun I have ever had at the same time. It cost me an absolutebomb, spending £250 in three days is never a good idea, but all the time, there was something missing. Standing in departures in Bristol and even sat on the plane, a part of me hoped he would just appear at any minute. I knew it was never going to happen. As much like a movie as my life often was, I could tell this was one of the scenes that had been cut from the final edit. Clubbing in Edinburgh by myself was… fun… Truly bizarre, but still fun and I felt like a new person. Undergone a reinvention once again, I returned a more bubbly, more outgoing and less tied down person. I was ready for what life was going to throw at me and made some great new friends along the way.
I wrote a lot in Edinburgh and it made me realise just what Matt gave me. He was a building block in life and something I could start a new chapter from. Because my story. Well, that's only just beginning…
Never mind, I'll find someone like you…
In the Mother-Fucking Woods, Baby

As the Iowa Caucuses near and the Republican presidential field enters cage-match mode, there has been some movement in "the three lanes" within the party. To recap, those three lanes are the social conservative lane, the establishment lane and the Donald Trump lane. In short, the latest NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll suggests that the establishment lane is narrowing and Mr. Trump is the biggest beneficiary.
The lanes in the GOP that we have discussed are not solid, stable groupings. They are made up of voters that hold mixed and sometimes contradictory views. There are, for instance, supporters of establishment candidates who have tea party leanings or who also consider themselves to be "values voters."
Here's what seems to be happening in the latest NBC/News Wall Street Journal poll. Voter groups that have supported the GOP's main establishment candidates are beginning to peel off to join other candidates, particularly Mr. Trump.
You can see that peeling away most clearly when you look at changes in support between December and January using the five-way field of Mr. Trump, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and former neurosurgeon Ben Carson. So, Mr. Trump and Mr. Cruz are up and the other three are all down a bit.
But the movement with voter groups within the poll is more dramatic and more telling. Consider the changes among self-described tea party voters.
Again Mr Trump and Mr. Cruz are up a bit in this breakdown, and the other three are down. But when you reorganize those candidates in their proper "lanes" the numbers tell a more striking story.
Between December and January, Mr. Trump saw a five-point increase in support from tea party voters. At the same time, the "establishment lane" saw a five-point decline in tea party support. That suggests that those establishment candidate voters with tea party leanings have decided that they feel more comfortable with Mr. Trump - at least for now.
The social conservative lane, meanwhile, looks more like voters simply moving from Mr. Carson to Mr. Cruz.
The point here is simple. The big lesson out of the 2016 Republican campaign so far is the rise of this "three lane" construction of the party. But the three lanes don't have to be three equal lanes. In fact, in the end they won't be.
The numbers here suggest the establishment lane is being pared down to its most basic set of voters, its core. And regardless of which candidate emerges as the establishment's standard-bearer, he or she is going to have to find a way to widen out that lane again.

Hello ScrapKins friends!
We hope that you have had a great start to the new year and are keeping warm
out there! We have been working hard this month to really lock down our goals for 2013, and while
there are always many, many new ideas coming to the surface, we realized that the most exciting,
riveting, and just plain fun parts of 2012 were our time spent with kids and their mentors, whoever you
may be (parent, teacher, role model, all of the above). Just look at our Gallery for a taste of what
we've seen and who we've interacted with! In light of this reflection, we have decided to crank up the
engine and go full throttle ahead to hang out with you all at more events and festivals. We will continue
to be around the local area at places like Hip Tot Music Fest on February 10 and schools around
the New York area, but we will also broaden our range. Go to a film festival in California? Sure! A family-
oriented arts festival abroad? Bring it on! And it will only get bigger and better from there!
We will be continuing to teach young people how to turn their scraps and junk into beautiful, creative
art projects and toys with our 12 signature projects highlighted in the Build-It Book, and
just might introduce some new projects at the events as well – the creativity is only going to grow! Keep
in touch to see more updates from our 2013 adventures!
- The ScrapKins Gang
PS Do you want us to come to your school or event? We'd love to talk to you! Just click on that
"Contact" tab on the top of the page, contact us through any of our social media or e-mail
mediums, and we will get back to you promptly!

I've had this bothersome raised mole on my face since I was a child. No dermatologist would touch it, several told me I would have a large noticeable scar because the root was so deep. Dr. Andrew Jacono did not hesitate to explain the proper way to excise a mole to fit and blend with the contours of the face. His confidence showed in his work. I'm 6 weeks out and I am thrilled with the results. His work was flawless and I have no noticeable scar. I have recommended Dr. Jacono to several friends and family and trust him implicitly.
I had a rhinoplasty, midface-lift and upper/lower blepharoplasty earlier this year by Dr. Jacono, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results! I look better, not different, and the results are so natural. Dr. Jacono is not only a skilled surgeon, but he is also a caring human being. His bedside manner and that of his staff is beyond compare. His offices and surgical suite are meticulous. I was in the best of hands with Dr. Jacono. I wouldn't trust my face to anyone else and highly recommend him.
