This is one of those "Did you know" articles which will become more useful the longer you remember to use the knowledge.
Have a GMail / Google Mail account? Yes – Good. No – Go get one.
You register for gmail, and have a gmail address, for example email@example.com, but did you know that you can actually have as many as you like?
Now you say, "Why would I want more than one address?". Well, say you don't like spam, and you register for a website, one which gets hacked, or plain plays dirty and gives that address out – you can then easily filter anything to that address to the bin. The problem is that it's hard to do when you only have one address, hence the need for multiple addresses. Previously this was one of the bonuses available to domain name owners, or geeks with a million e-mail accounts, but now this can be yours for a few extra key presses with any GMail account.
Simply add dots in your e-mail address, or a + symbol, followed by numbers or letters before the @gmail.com part of the address.
So if your address was firstname.lastname@example.com, you could automatically just use:
firstname.lastname@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com, email@example.com
You'd get all of the mails, the same as if you'd just used firstname.lastname@example.com – get it?
When you register for websites, just use firstname.lastname@example.com, then if they spam you, you can simply autofilter anything to that address into the bin. Simples.
As a side-note – this will also enhance security as often hacked account details are circulated, now as this almost always done via an automated process, a unique e-mail address for a site is by definition going to make the job of the "hacker" more difficult when using an automated process.
Further along the security lines, often phishing e-mails, for example claiming to be from your bank, are spammed at random e-mail accounts. Say you'd used your email@example.com address with your bank, it'd be quiet hard to tell if it was legit – but (Not 100% foolproof, but goes a long way!), if you'd used email@example.com, it'd go a long way to telling you if the mail was genuine or not.
Remember though, in general – if you get what you think may be a dodgy e-mail from a financial institution, CALL them on their publicly known numbers and verify it – BEFORE you click on links!

Oh Wednesday, how I do adore you, now only two days left of my work week until the weekend. This post is inspired from an unexpected "blast from the past" I encountered recently. Yes, I have written about him quite a bit when this blog first started, but obviously emotions resurfaced and I feel the need to write about him again.
For the sake of privacy I am going to refrain from using his name, but then again, the post isn't really about him alone. It is about the past in general. You see, the first instinct people have when you bring up someone from your past is to warn you, and tell you it isn't a good idea to talk to them. And yeah maybe they're right. Honestly, I do it because no matter how bad a person has hurt me, I will never forget the times when we cared about each other. Thinking about those times doesn't make me want to run back into his arms, it just makes me happy to have memories of a time where I felt loved, even if in the end I was broken.
So this person contacts me right? What was even more strange was that last week I had a nightmare about him. And I have not thought about this person for a LONG time. Sure, every now and then he crosses my mind, and I ask around about him. But this dream felt SO REAL. I woke up and I text a mutual friend and she agreed it was bizarre but she had not heard anything about him. The feeling stayed with me but I brushed it off. Then a close friend of mine visiting from Las Vegas brought him up, asked me if I ever talked to him and I told her that I don't even have his phone number, then I told her about the nightmare. The last thing I said to her before the topic of discussion changed was "I just want to know that he is okay. I want to know that he isn't in trouble and that he is alive somewhere…"
Well, you can imagine how shocked I was to be contacted by him, only a few days later. The conversation wasn't long and it wasn't negative nor was it any type of romantic or "I miss you" style of conversation. Just a short, simple exchange of words, "you look well. how have you been." etc. To be honest it felt SO good to know that he was alive and well I wasn't even thinking about anything else. Just so relieved that I no longer have to be in my head wondering if he is okay. Obviously my friends voiced their concerns, which I am totally grateful for, extremely lucky to have such caring friends to look out for me. But I really think that this was a good thing, I feel like the universe could feel me struggling with this unresolved issue of guilt and worry so it just gave me something that I needed. And honestly despite everything this guy was my best friend for like three years. So yeah I care about his well being.
Anyways, my point in all of this is that I do feel the past should stay the past, but that doesn't mean you aren't allowed to miss people or think about them. You shouldn't feel bad for being concerned about someone that you haven't heard anything about for a long time. To me, that is just being human, if no one had heard from someone you all used to know for months I think it would be weird if you didn't think about it. And if that person reaches out to you but you feel like you wont be able to handle opening that door to communication then don't respond. It is all about you and what you are comfortable with. But, if you think you are in a place where a quick conversation isn't going to send you in a downward spiral, then go ahead and talk to them. You know you will regret it if you don't anyway.

Chore = A routine task/job, especially a household one
When you live with a homestay family, you should think of yourself as a member of that family. That means you will take part in family life, which may include helping out with family chores.
Chores are small jobs that need to be done regularly around the family home such as cleaning up the kitchen, loading and unloading the dishwasher, cleaning up one's own bedroom, and taking out the garbage or recycling.
Helping with cooking is a great way to spend time with your host family and participate in one of the more enjoyable chores.

For nearly the entire drive, Scruffy was sitting up looking out the window! She loves car rides, oh, and her cupcake blanket. She is always sleeping and sitting on that one, we had to bring it for her.
Ski trails in the distance! Marshall's buddies all went skiing, but we decided to do some hiking instead! Snow doesn't really mix with us. Nope!\
Driving over Big Bear Lake.. It's beautiful!
Pictures from the national park...
I thought the outdoor amphitheater was pretty neat!
Scruffy absolutely LOVED it! She's a real dog - she's at her prime when running through the woods and mountains! Dogs will be dogs. Though dogs had to stay on a leash at the park, so she was really running us around, all these new smells and all.
Isn't Marshall such a stud?!
Scruffy was smiling the entire day!
Such a beautiful bright blue sky!
Scruffy looks so regal.. And Marshall's studying the map, before we decide which trails we want to go on. We were also able to get national parks passes here... Free for military, every year too! Gotta take advantage of this!
A map of the trails.
I got some action shots! Scruffy was going so fast, she was practically walking us, instead of the other way around!
The views are breathtaking! See the snow in the distance? How crazy is that?!
I love these pictures with the sun reflecting off the lake!
Yeah, I could just sit here all day and look at this view...
Such a happy Scruffy puppy!
One last picture...
And here's how much Scruffy enjoyed her day at Big Bear:
.....She was OUT!
So as I was saying, we went out to Big Bear for a night.. The first evening we hung out with all of Marshall's coworkers, then the next day we got up, packed up, and headed out for the mountain trails! We had a full day exploring and finding local shops before we headed back home. It was about a 3 hours drive from us, so it's enough of a vacation to get away, but not far enough that we don't have to plan extremely far out for.
Besides, the point, we loved it, and I think Scruffy did too. Like I said, she is really in her prime and at her best when surrounded by nature - she just needs trees and new smells and room to run and she's a happy pup! It was so nice to get away for a few days, and I'm glad we were able to get a little getaway out of a 3-day weekend. Yeah, I realize this happened about 2 weeks ago, but better late than never, right?! Things have been pretty busy over here! I PROMISE I'll be back to blogging sooner than later though :)
Has anyone else ever been to Big Bear? Must-do's for our next visit?

The impact of forest residue removal and wood ash amendment on the growth of the ectomycorrhizal external mycelium

Abstract english
Intensive harvesting of forest residues for energy production may lead to the depletion of organic matter and mineral nutrients in the forest floor. In order to restore nutrient content wood ash has been suggested as a fertiliser. Ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi arc involved in the nutrient uptake of forest trees and this study investigates the influence of intensive harvesting and wood ash fertilisation on the external EM mycelium in forest soil. Nylon mesh bags filled with sand were buried in September 1997 in field plots which had or had not been intensively harvested. The effect of wood ash on the production of external EM mycelium was studied in mesh bags amended with wood ash. Mesh bags were retrieved in May and October 1998. The relative amount of fungal mycelia in the mesh bags was estimated with phospholipid fatty acid analysis. The fungi colonising the mesh bags were mainly (> 90%) ectomycorrhizal. Fungal biomass in the mesh bags was low in the spring but high in the autumn. No significant effect on EM fungal biomass was observed in the mesh bags collected from intensively harvested plots compared with those from control plots, but wood ash amendment resulted in 2.4 times more EM fungal biomass (P < 0.05). The effect of external EM mycelium on the dissolution of wood ash was studied in mesh bags filled with wood ash, using mesh bags buried in soil isolated from roots as EM-free controls. The external EM mycelium had no effect on the dissolution rate of the wood ash. 80% of the potassium was lost from the wood ash within a month, whereas no phosphorus was lost during the experimental period (up to 13 months).

Former President George W. Bush declared "Mission Accomplished" on May 1, 2003 in reference to the Iraq war. This stunt was admitted to being a publicity stunt by Bush's former White House staff. The entire scenario was manufactured to show former President Bush in a flight suit with a helmet underneath his arm and was purposely shot 50 kilometers off of the coast of San Diego so that the shoreline could not be seen and it would look as though former President Bush flew out to the middle of the ocean
The Wu Dynasty ruled by emperor Wu Zetian (pronounced "woo zai-chen") was the only female to ever rule China in her own right. She was made a concubine because of her renowned beauty and slept with both the emperor Taizong and his son Gaozong after emperor Taizong's death which was considered incest during this period. Wu clawed her way to the top of China's political ladder, challenging the male dominated patriarchy of the Chinese government and the traditional Confucianism teachings by introducing Buddhism. After Wu died, her daughter and China's prime minister were murdered to bring back Confucianism. Many scholars and historians have attributed Wu to the downfall of the Wu Dynasty, vilifying her by referring to her as sex crazed with many lovers and a person who was guilty of murdering her own child. In reality, it is true Wu was crueler than any male leader before or after her. 1200 years would pass before another female leader would emerge; emperous Ching Shih (pronounced "See-shi") in the 19th century
The average Champagne cork pops out of its carbonated bottle at 40 kilometers per hour. Champagne is technically a sparkling wine in that it is white wine with carbon dioxide added to give it a bubbling taste sensation. Champaign was originally developed in the Champagne region of northern France. If Champagne is from any other region, it technically is classified as "sparkling wine" as only a Champagne grape can create Champagne
When the craftspeople who built the Great Wall of China died during construction, their bodies were cremated and ground into a powder so that they could be mixed into the mortar of the bricks. The Chinese sometimes refer to the Great Wall of China as the "Wall of Tears" because of this. Over 400,000 people died during the construction process. Rice was added to the mortar which was placed in between each brick as it helped to bind each brick together so tightly that weeds could not grow through, but was also waterproof and resistant to earthquakes due to the flexibility it provided to the mortar
The most definitive way to tell if a Rolex is real or fake is to look at the ticking of the second hand. An authentic Rolex has a second hand which will gracefully sweep across the clock face with a gliding motion, whilst a replica Rolex second hand will tick in a jerking motion identical to every other low cost watch available to consumers
Any book printed before 1500 (or within 50 years of the invention of the printing press) is referred to as an "incunable" book. Book printing started around 870 A.D.. but the limitation of literate people who could read and write restricted books from being mass produced until Johannes Gutenberg invented the printing press in 1440. Books before 1500 are considered incredibly rare and expensive because they are one of a kind and essentially artwork, pieces which only the very wealthy could afford during the period of their introduction. Incunable means "in the cradle" in Latin which refers to the infancy period of book prints

As I have recently said, I love industrial "stuff" and abandoned stuff is even better. I was photographing in Genesee Valley Park in Rochester. I walked over a foot bridge and saw this railroad bridge in the distance, across the river. This particular bridge, now abandoned, carried a railroad line over the Erie Canal. I found my way over to the bridge, and fortunately, the chain link fences at both ends of the bridge had been ripped open, allowing me to cross the bridge and photograph it. I think this old "erector set" style of bridge construction is just beautiful.

The End of the Day
I was having a problem with the autofocus on my Nikon D2x, so got another camera and wanted to check that the new one was working properly. It was late in the day and I looked around for something to shoot - found this geranium right by the front steps. There wasn't much light, so used a slow shutter speed and opened the lens all the way. The photograph was still under-exposed, which is what makes this flower photograph so different in its appearance from any other flower photo I have ever done.

Four Chairs
Another photograph taken at the edge of Lake Ontario, about 20 minutes after the photo of the sunset and the driftwood log. It was really dark as I walked along, but the white chairs stood out against the water of the lake, and stopped me in my tracks. The camera was hand-held, and I made exposures at a relatively slow shutter speed, long after the sun had set, to get this shot.

The Industrial Landscape
I have always been fascinated by the industrial landscape. Something about the huge size of everything. I love industrial facilities that are in use, but buildings and structures that are abandoned really get my pulse going. This is the Bebee station of Rochester Gas & Electric, located alongside the former Platt Street Bridge, which is now a pedestrian walkway over the Genesee River, giving a wonderful view of this generating plant. I think this may be a subtle landscape, but I photographed it several times over two days, and I think there is something here.

72 North Union
72 North Union. A famous address, in Rochester, New York. A famous address in the world of photography. This was the home of Minor White in the years he lived in Rochester and taught at RIT. I was a student of Minor's in the school years 61-62 and 63-64. In addition, I did my senior thesis on Minor White and photographed him as an RIT teacher, publisher of Aperture magazine, writer, and at photographic workshops he taught in Boston and at St. Lawrence University. I photographed Minor at his home for my entire senior year and was very familiar with 72 North Union. Minor left here for MIT and Boston in 1965. While in Rochester last week, I went on a pilgrimage to visit the old RIT campus (half of which has been dynamited) and then to see if 72 North Union still exists. It does - it is the peaked roof of the building to the right, behind the facade of the Word of the Cross church that has been added to the front, joining two buildings. So I started photographing, and found this wonderful foreground object - the manhole cover, with the curving strips of road tar around it! The perfect foreground for a photograph in the manner of Minor White!

The Color of the Sky
I was driving along Lake Ontario after sunset, and noticed that the higher clouds were still illuminated by the orange light of the sun below the horizon. I thought it might be worth a look, so I stopped, grabbed the camera, and scrambled down a small embankment to the beach. Imagine my surprise to find this bleached driftwood log waiting just for me.

The White Oak
After I drove into Genesee valley Park the other day and parked the car, this gorgeous white oak is the first thing I saw, and I was immediately drawn to it. This is the first view of the tree, and my first composition. After taking this photo, I took a wider shot of the whole tree, and looked at it from other directions, just to see, but this is THE photo, it seems to me. I shot it in color, but think it is a stronger image in black and white.

The Sanitarium
I was on my way to the airport the other day to go flying, and caught a glimpse of some abandoned buildings as I drove by. I had some time to spare, so turned around to investigate. At first glance, these looked like buildings built a long time ago as mental hospitals, something I am familiar with, having done a photo essay some years ago on the abandoned mental hospitals on Long Island. Spent about an hour there photographing about 5 of the buildings. At this building, one of the smaller ones, someone had ripped off an outside screen and opened the windows. I just walked up and started photographing. I spent perhaps 10 minutes framing the image several different ways. This is my favorite. I did a search later and found that this facility consisted of nine buildings and was constructed between 1911 and 1931 as a home to the Monroe County Tuberculosis Sanitarium.

Harris Hill
So for my field trip today, I decided to drove two hours south of Rochester, to Elmira. Harris Hill in Elmira is considered the birthplace of soaring in the United States, dating from the 1930's. The National Soaring Museum is located there with it's wonderful collection of both historic and modern sailplanes. Outside the museum is the runway for launching sailplanes by aircraft tow. I was lucky today, because on Wednesday afternoons, it is pilot training time, and by 4:30 the hangars were emptied of most sailplanes and they were all over the grass, waiting for the towplanes to bring them up to altitude where they could ride the thermals. This photo is of one of the sailplanes waiting to be towed by hand down to the end of the runway for launch, with cumulus clouds in the distance.

Ian & I Go Flying
I decided to get a little flight instruction while up here. I haven't flown in six months, and need to get my biennial flight review when I get home. Decided to get the rust out while upstate. Went to Rochester Air Center at Monroe County Airport and met Ian, who is a US Army Helicopter Pilot (CH-47's!) and moonlights as a flight instructor in his spare time. We had a great flight, I wasn't that rusty, and I did some aerial photographs and some sightseeing as well. Upstate NY is beautiful to fly over, especially late in the day, with farmland and small towns stretching off into the distance as far as the eye can see.

Ramblin' Jacks
I stopped to photograph the moon and Venus at night, on the corner of a country road and Route 20 in Geneva, New York. It was only after I photographed the moon, that I noticed this building where I was standing, illuminated by a streetlight, with the backwards American flag painted on it. Then I looked to the left to see the sign with the name of the business here... "Ramblin' Jacks Barber Shop, & Ace Computer"

Meet Riley!
This is Riley! We met him when we got to Rochester and found that Vincent & Joanne's son Chris was here for the weekend with Angela, and Riley is her dog. Is he cute or what! So cute he makes my heart hurt. And he has a wonderful disposition. Such a great dog!

The Moon and Venus
It's raining on Long Island, but I am in upstate New York, fortunately. Saturday night, the moon was in conjunction with Venus - they were within 2 degrees of each other, a relatively rare occurrence. I first saw the crescent moon just after sunset, and since I was driving west, up through the finger lakes, I had the two in view through the front of my windshield for a couple of hours. What a gorgeous sight, to see these two together! I stopped in Interlaken, NY and made this photo before the sky became completely black, giving me the ability to show the silhouette of the tree in the foreground to add a bit more interest. An hour after I took this, I stopped to shoot them again in the black sky, and Venus looked like the blazing headlight of an oncoming train, it was so bright!

From Out of the Past
In my 40 years at Newsday, and on Long Island, I had never been to Dowling College in Oakdale. One of its campuses is located at the former W. K. Vanderbilt estate "Idle Hour," which was built in 1901. What a sight to see! It was raining today, and that always enriches the saturation of the colors. This is a view of the courtyard, and it felt really good to see that it has been kept in such wonderful condition.

Oh Man, I Forgot!
Oh man, I forgot! Last night I remember thinking that I needed to upload my day's post, and then I got distracted and went to bed. What a shock when I woke this morning and remembered that I forgot. Duh! I was at Main Beach in Easthampton, and saw this group of kids playing vollyball. I had only been shooting for 5 minutes before the game was over and they left. But I did get this moment when someone scored. I love the silhouettes of the players against the surf, with their arms raised.

A Brilliant Mind
I photographed a most amazing man the other day! He is 91 years young, was an industrial designer working in Lucite and stainless steel and made the first tableware using those materials after the war. He became a very successful businessman, and "retired" about 20 years ago. To keep active, he started doing sculptures in lucite as a hobby. This photo is a detail of one of his first pieces, and it is just beautiful to look at. I have chosen a detail as perhaps a bit more exciting than a photo of the whole piece. His more recent work involves both clear and colored resins and the pieces are unimaginably beautiful. But the lesson I carry away from this assignment is how vital and alive he is, in being actively engaged in life and his art. He is now my role model for when I am a few years older!

Early Morning Light
I had to get up at 6:30 AM to drive to East Hampton, which is WAY too early for me. My reward was the lovely early morning light, both on the dining room table, and on the front porch. I photographed both, and chose to post this photo of the rocker and the small table.

How Many Times?
Busy day today, so this post is an older photo. I was driving westbound on the Main Road in the vicinity of Jamesport or Mattituck, when suddenly I passed a large tree that was blocking the view of this house and tree. I had never noticed this scene before and I must have passed it literally hundreds of times! Maybe it was the light on this particular day - I don't know, but it stopped me in my tracks, and I spent some time photographing it, and now here it is for you to see.

Reindeer in the Window
Sitting at the dining room table for dinner, I glanced up to see this metal reindeer in one of the front windows. I just liked the shape, and the green background. So, OK, it's not the greatest photo I ever took, but I will add it to other photos in a documentary I started on the house 4 or 5 year ago - a continuing project.

Otherworldly Light
Busy day today shooting and editing, so I didn't find anything to shoot for my blog. This is a photo I did about a month ago, when I was out at the State University of New York at Stony Brook. It is the Charles Wang building. Very modern looking, and it looks really otherworldly at dusk - I love the feeling of light in this photograph.

Today I photographed this olympic gold medal skater, who is in a new musical at a local playhouse. The interesting thing is that the entire conventional stage will be covered in ice for the play. I was really impressed with the intensity with which she concentrated on watching what was going on with other skaters, and while listening to the director, as she is doing here.

The Bridal Shoot
Today I did a small bridal shoot, some photos in the studio and some outdoors. I love to photograph the hair and makeup process sometimes, to see if I can find some "moments" - It sharpens my shooting and timing skills - I do it just for the challenge. I think I found a "moment" today - a photograph with "something extra" in it. What do you think?

I Think It Was the Green And Blue...
I think it was the quick flash of the green and blue as I drove by this scene the first time, that caused me to stop and turn the car around, so that I could come back and shoot this photo. Something lovely in the color combination. I was on the way to work, and then had to have an argument with myself, about whether or not I had the time to stop and take the photograph. Stopping won!

What the heck is THIS?
For one thing, this is a VERY strange image, is it not? What it is, is a "Slime Party!" What that means is, it is a birthday party put on by a commercial company run by two moms, to entertain young children. The kids arrive, and have pizza, and then they play a giant game of Twister, and while they are doing that, they are sprayed with shaving cream, and then the plastic sheeting on the floor is covered with "slime" and the they have relay races and other entertainments! The kids are not allowed to stand up, to avoid any chance of injury. The crazy thing is, the kids LOVED this! Must be the age...

A Blaze of Color
On the way to church today, I drove by this tree and was blown away by the stunning color. There was not time to stop, so I thought I would just hold in my memory the beauty of the moment. On the way home, about an hour and a half later, I drove by it again, and decided to stop and photograph it. I think that since the sun had moved 20 degrees along its path in the sky, the scene was different. I think the color is not as brilliant. Was it the sun, or is it my memory? I could always drive down that road again at 11 AM and see if the tree is the same. Stay tuned.

Hooray! Liz is back from two months in California! Of course, we were out there for a week, to see both Liz and Amy, but now she is back home, after a 6 week work/study program at Esalen Institute, and then some weeks of hanging out with Amy and Gus, and with her friend Dan who lives in LA. Here she is with her iBook using wireless in the back room, coffee close at hand on the plant stand. Don't you just love the pigtails!

The Amazing Sycamores, Part 2
It was only last Monday when I posted the Sycamores at sunset. Today as I drove by on the way home from work I was amazed at how green they were, since the shoots have really become covered with light green leaves. What caused me to pull over to shoot this, however, were two groups of kids walking. I am accustomed to seeing a lone walker, or jogger framed by the trees, and couples walking together are quite common. It is rare to see a group of six - in this case in two groups. So I pulled over, and waited, and tried to get the shot when both groups were well placed. But these trees are beautiful, aren't they?

The Little Brother
One more story to round out the prom dress package. It's about the stresses of finding a prom dress. So I was sent out at the last minute to find a young woman shopping for a dress. She was in the store with her mom, and her younger brother. I was following them around the racks of dresses shooting as I went, concentrating on the mom and the daugher. Suddenly I noticed something in the lower right corner of my viewfinder and instinctively clicked the shutter. It was the younger brother who appeared out of nowhere! He certainly made MY day with this photo!

The New Way of Doing Things
With a great deal of emphasis being placed on the online presence of the newspaper, things are done differently these days. This is the second part of the story about a high school girl choosing her prom dress. She shopped for 5 different dresses, I photographed her shopping, and then last Friday photographed her with her hair and makeup done, wearing each of the 5 dresses. The photographs will run in the paper, and the readers will vote for their favorite dress, which she will then wear to the prom. But the Web requires audio and video, in addition to the still photographs, so the studio was a full house. Shown here are the writer and her assistant, the photographer shooting video, and the fashion editor is gathering audio. Not shown are the hairdresser and the makeup person. It took me an hour to set up the lighting, with the help of an assistant, and the student brought her High School teacher and her aunt. It was a pretty exciting time with all of this going on. Welcome to the new media!

The Blue Period
I remember years ago hearing that there was a French term for a time near the last light of day, called (in english) "The Blue Period." I have experienced that all my life - if you are indoors with the lights on, you look out a window, and it is blue outside. Today when I photographed this sky before a thunderstorm arrived, the sky appeared gray to my eyes, and yet was a beautiful blue in this camera image.

How Manchester will commemorate the anniversary of the Arena attack
Last year's terror attack at Manchester Arena, which claimed the lives of 22 music fans, shook both Manchester and the rest of the world.
In a truly Mancunian sense of solidarity, the city stood together to show that Manchester was united and refused to bow to the spread of hatred.
On the 22nd May, one year after the tragedy, Manchester City Council has outlined plans to mark the anniversary.
The services will follow the theme of Remembrance, Reflection and Celebration of Life, recognising the 22 people who lost their lives, those who were injured and first responders.
Before the anniversary there will be a 'Trees of Hope' trail, where the public can offer their messages of hope and support on trees located around the city, including St Ann's Square.
There will be a minutes silence during the Great Manchester Run which takes place on Sunday 20 May, as well as fundraising for the We Love Manchester charity.
The 22 May will be marked with a Civic Memorial Service at Manchester Cathedral, which will welcome bereaved families and first responders to reflect on the tragic events that happened.
In addition, Manchester Together, a free public event at Albert Square, will allow Mancunians to come together once again in a show of solidarity.
Sir Richard Leese, Leader of Manchester City Council, said: "The horrific events of 22 May shocked not just this city but the world. Those who lost loved ones, and those who were left physically or mentally injured, will always have a place in our thoughts and we will never forget the 22 people, including children, whose lives were taken away.
"The aftermath of the attack also saw a remarkable display of solidarity and love in and for Manchester, a refusal to let those who would divide us to get their twisted way. Even as we grieved, we were proud to stand resiliently together.
"The first anniversary of the attack will be an intensely emotional time for a great many people. Everyone touched by those events has a unique personal experience and we have tried to be mindful of this in planning a range of events."
The plans are still in development and more details will be released closer to the time.

National Trust Solar Water HeatingHarry
We have been working with the National Trust for a number of years Cornwall.
Solar Water Heating is a very cost effective renewable deployment which has proved and easy fit for the Trust across a number of sites. The TS300 solar panels were installed at both Trengwaiten tea-rooms & Glendurgan Gardens in Cornwall, each installed to blend in with the environment causing as little aesthetic disruption thereby going unnoticed.
Solar water heating reduces our dependency on expensive and polluting fossil fuels. Solar energy causes no pollution at all, thus reducing our overall carbon emissions and the embodied energy of the equipment itself is recovered within two years of installation.

Using the right equipment in your workouts goes far beyond the dumbbells and machines. It includes personal gear such as heart rate monitors/fitness trackers, the proper shoes, and headphones designed for using while exercising.
To learn more about the fitness equipment I recommend such as resistance bands, stability balls, and medicine balls, visit this page.
Heart Rate Monitor/Fitness Trackers
You can learn your resting heart rate, maximum heart rate, training heart rate, and recovery heart rate, and why each of these numbers is important to help you reach your fitness goals.
Polar heart rate monitors and performance sports watches are known globally for their durability and accuracy. Their selection also includes GPS-enabled bike computers, fitness and running watches, as well as heart rate monitors and performance trackers. These are designed for any activity ranging from swimming, cross-training and yoga to tracking your daily activity and calorie consumption.
Cross-trainers are the ideal shoe for Metabolic Explosion Training, Cross Training Circuits, Pumping Iron, and HIIT-R. They provide the stability and the lateral support for squats, jumps, lunges, and many other movements.
Foam Rollers – are available in different lengths and designs. They break up scar tissue and adhesions between the skin, muscles, and bones. The benefits of using foam rollers include improved flexibility and circulation, increased joint range of motion, reduced exercise-related soreness, and injury prevention.

Believe or not, men in general categorize women in two- the first category of females is for past time sake and the second is for marriage material. The first category is women that men never take seriously for several reasons like they are high-maintenance especially in emotional aspects. Those women who never tell you what they want and expect you to do that thing that they don't tell you. They also expect to be treated like a prima donna, they flirt with everybody, they make themselves look available for everybody, and they create an aura that "I go for the highest bidder" because they do go for the highest bidder.
Past time women are those whose only talent is in the bedroom. They have this belief that the only way to a man's heart is through his groin. That sex is the only way to get a man. They are naturally dumb- not playing dumb, they are obnoxious, loud and they don't make any sense. Their only focus is to be physically provoking to the male population, they are lazy and they believe that they are too "glamorous" to find a job in spite of their lack of education. They can't carry a good conversation and they don't know how to listen.
They are "nice" and "good" to their partner only when they need something. Some men stick to them because they are convenient and they are good in bed but as soon as they meet a woman with substance men will drop them like a hot potato. So how does a woman become a marriage material? Here are some few things to remember, know who you are. This is the first rule. Know yourself- your limitations, your strengths, your morals, your values. If you know yourself, you have control over it. You have a purpose. What makes a person confused and lost is a person who has no purpose and has no control over herself.
And ask yourself, what kind of person will you become if you have no control over yourself? If you discern yourself, you will be confident and secure and more natural because you are aware of what and who you are. To become marriage material you have to know what you want in life but you have to comply with the first rule first. You cannot know what you want if you don't know who … READ MORE ----->

|Need Help??
We've been trying for years to get PM development improved and moving along. We've made a lot of improvements and we've also taken a lot of steps that didn't do much good (at least not yet). So every once in a while we get a flurry of changes. The backlog of things that really should be done is huge.
I think this is somewhat of a vicious cycle. Unless there are Gods that have the time and the inclination to actively shepherd pmdev I think its inevitable that new code comes in flurrys and that we will end up with a backlog. Developing to unstated guidelines (code quality expectations), with minimal (constructive) feedback is as you know extremely difficult and can be quite frustrating for the people involved. If you post a patch and then never hear anything, or observe that of the posted patches only a small number have had any form of feedback you quickly become disenchanted with the process and eventually give up. As for debating code in pmdev why bother if the perception is that the odds are such that regardless of the debate the code won't get applied anyway?
Of all the things that have been done to pmdev the only one that I think will have any real effect and alas also one I've not seen yet attempted is the addition of a god that dedicates themselve solely to dev related issues. Such a god should not participate in other godly duties, and should step down when/if they can no longer dedicate the required time.
My position on all this is well known to you, and im not replying to rehash the CB chat we had recently. I recognize that the gods have lives too, and cannot currently respond to patches as they might wish. However I think its important to realize that this situation is fixable by finding the right person or people to manage pmdev who do have the time and inclination.
Anyway. Ill keep posting patches regardless I suppose. At the very least nobody on the site can tell me to post a patch when i bitch about stuff. :-)
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

This elephant in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu is quite a stunner.
11-year-old temple elephant, Lakshmi has been a part of Aravindalochanar temple for a decade now.
This elephant was as sent to the Indian temple from Yalpanam in Sri Lanka when was one year old according to dailymail.co.uk.
Known for her amazing musician skills this elephant plays the mouth organ.
Lakshmi, who learnt the instrument from her mahout , R Balan mastered the skill in just one year and now plays to his command and grooves to the tunes.
The mouth organ is usually placed on the tip of her trunk and she blows in and out of it rhythmically producing a harmonious tune while nodding her head and tapping her feet which looks like a dance piece.
This elephant has made it a ritual to perform in front of the deity twice a day for 30 minutes each, once every morning and once every night. Visitors of the temple are mind blown by Lakshmi's spectacular performance.
Lakshmi has also become a centre of attraction for visitors at a 48 -day rejuvenation camp.

Basehor-Linwood ACT scores increase by full point from previous year
August 17, 2011
Basehor-Linwood High School students' average composite ACT scores jumped more than full point in 2011, the school district announced today.
The average composite ACT score of 22.3 for the BLHS class of 2011 outpaced state and national averages and reversed a three-year trend of sliding ACT scores for the school.
The school's score improved from a 21.2 composite for the class of 2011. The state of Kansas' average composite score for the college entrance exam in 2011 was 22.0, the same as the year before, according to figures from the Kansas State Department of Education. The national average score was 21.1. Scores are out of 36 possible points.
In a release from the school district, BLHS principal Sherry Reeves said the jump in scores was a result of efforts by students, staff and parents to improve ACT performance.
"Improving ACT scores is an ongoing priority at BLHS," Reeves said.
Basehor-Linwood superintendent David Howard attributed the improvement partly to the efforts of faculty.
"We really have to give credit to the teachers who continue to increase classroom rigor and have worked diligently to achieve this goal," Howard said.
For more on Basehor-Linwood's ACT improvement, check next week's online and print editions of the Sentinel.

LloydsTSB Help Pages: What to Know
This is the LloydsTSB help page where most customers begin when they have a customer service problem, plus information about what the turnaround time is for helpful responses and how to find assistance for your specific problem. If you are looking for LloydsTSB's best customer help page or faq or forum, this is the best entry point according to 438 GetHuman users in the last 12 months. If you can't call on the phone or don't want to wait on hold right now, using their online help desk is a good way to call, but they also do have a phone number (0800-0969779) which we show above. Sometimes when you dig through the various help topics and volumes on lloydstsb.com, you end up needing to go back and forth with somebody in their customer service department, in which case they may switch to email as the medium for communication. In the event that your search here on their help pages turns into an email conversation, you can expect the turnaround for fixing the issue to be a bit on the slower side. You may go several hours or a day without getting a reply from LloydsTSB agents. But on the bright side that back and forth can turn out to be less time overall, than, say, getting on the phone with a customer service representative.
Contacting LloydsTSB: General Information
LloydsTSB has a page or online help desk for customer service, but you can also call them on the phone. In total, you can communicate with LloydsTSB using 2 different media: phone, web. And again, if you didn't realize it was an option and you'd rather have a dialog with somebody, you can actually phone them. But check out our information about their phone number 0800-0969779 to get more specifics there, such as the average wait time or to check if a real live human being actually picks up the phone. If you see any errors in this information, be sure to let GetHuman know. We try to gather and share the best information we can from the millions of customers that visit every month and tell us about their experiences with companies like LloydsTSB.
Do LloydsTSB and GetHuman work together?
GetHuman has no relationship with LloydsTSB and does not operate its help desk or customer support operations.

I was at a Chris Johnson Seminar where he talked about getting Free Money From The Government. He mentioned that he met his (beautiful) wife through an online dating website. He said that you could ask him for the name of the website after the seminar, but I was in a hurry and so I didn't bother asking him, especially because I don't like to stay around 'Gurus.' Guru's don't really have any special secret. Information is easily accessible if you know where to look for it, or you know who to ask. You don't need to pay much for it.
If anyone reading this has gotten married from a dating website, please post in the comments about,
- If you're a social person (outside of your social circle – and that you're comfortable talking to strangers).
- How active you were dating, and how active were you meeting people from the internet.
- The name and URL of the dating site.
- How long did you go out before getting married.
- And add whatever other comments you have. I'd really appreciate it.
One Response to "Online Dating"
Hello!!! My name is Irina!!! To me of 29 years!!! I would like to tell about myself a little!!! I very much like

friendly, fair, and. And I shall like to meet whom – what the living God is intellectual and simple as well also,

We want a brighter future of our families and communities.
This is why we bring us all together.
The Redesign for Whole Families summit was born from our desire to bring the best of research and practice together to share and co-create a human services sector that serves and provides what's needed for our families and communities. Too often we hear stories of disparities and struggles of families, the burnout of front line workers, and the silos that are build around policies, programs, and organizations.
We asked ourselves - what if we turn this narrative around and provide a rich ground for the change makers, the idealists, the thinkers, and the doers, to all come together and build on each others' knowledge and lived experience? What might happen if we bring the brightest minds and boldest hearts together?
About your summit convener:
Driven by our passion to advance the common good, we bring our expertise and creativity to the work we do in human services. We partner with state agencies, counties, tribal nations, community organizations, non-profits, and foundations, among others, because we believe that the work we do will require all hands on deck. Broadly, our work falls into the categories of innovation-driven projects, leadership development programs, and evaluation and research efforts.

Protection of children of convicts in Ethiopia
The new project in Ethiopia focuses on the rights of children with imprisoned parents in Ethiopia. The situation is harrowing as showed a visit in a regional prison 120 km North of Addis Ababa:
"47 women live together with 16 children in the same place with only 24 beds. The children have to share the bed or floor with the mother. There is no running water, the sanitary provisions are very poor and out of order because there is no running water. Nothing is provided for the children: no toys, education, medical care, beds, clothes, they have to share the food ration belonging to their mothers (3 times a day an injera, no vegetables, no fruits). The children live a very long time in prison, the oldest were 9 at the moment, they have to stay till they are 12, sometimes even longer."
With this new project Morning Tears strives to awareness of the problem with the Ethiopian government and it's responsibility towards the children of prisoners. Morning Tears acts in close cooperation and in a constructive way together with the Ethiopian government with the goal to realize shelter and structures to improve the life of children in prison with their mothers.
To achieve this Morning Tears will set up an example project in Fiche prison, will give policy advice and develop and provide training skills.
Therefore a Memorandum Of Understanding was signed between Morning Tears, the Federal Supreme Court Child Justice Project Office and the Federal Prison Authority.
Visit to the Federal Prison Kaliti in Addis Ababa on 25 March 2015
On a courtyard surrounded by the sleeping halls with bunk beds live up to 600 women. In 2 'rooms' are 50 woman with children, here no bunk beds but in each room the beds are put one to another so there is no way to walk to a bed, you have to climb the beds to reach your own. On each bed there is a mother with a small child. The youngest baby is 7 days old. 24 hours a day the mothers sit and lay on that bed with their child. There is no space to walk, the baby's are not able to learn to crawl or walk. Sanitary situation: 3 holes in the ground where the women have to go to the toilet, no running water, no curtains or anything, so no hygiene and no privacy. It is open to the room where the women live.
The mothers with the baby's dare not go out in the courtyard where the other prisoners sit during the day. It is muddy with rocky stones and very oneven. Impossible for a small kid. There is a lot of violence between the women and they can attack the small children out of frustration, so a non-go zone for the mothers with children.
At the age of 3 the children have leave the prison. Some of them have no one to take care of them and end up in an orphanage run by the government. No contact anymore with their mothers.
What can Morning Tears Belgium do
- Provide training for the guards in the women's prison to help them to give educational guidance to the mothers to improve the development of their children.
- We dream of being able to build a separate room for mothers with children in the Federal Kalilti Prison with the necessary equipment for the children. The prison provides us the land to build on. This however requires a lot of money.
- In the prison in Fiche we will decorate a building that is provided to us in the prison especially for mothers with children. We will provide all the necessary equipment for the children. We will employ a caretaker, teacher and cook. We will provide a day home in prison where the children can have education, get a healthy meal, do sports and art activities, get psychological counseling and medical care before they go back to their mothers at night.
- We will set up a cooperation with a project in Bishoftu, where children with a parent in prison can make their homework, get a healthy meal, do sports and art activities and get psychological counseling and medical care.
- Implement a toolkit for child development tracking in infants living with their mother in prison.
Implementation of the project in Fiche
July 2015 the classroom was taken in use. The children are provided with education and eat 3 healthy meals a day. School supplies and toys were bought and a teacher, caretaker and cook were employed.
Morning Tears Belgium is a 100 % volunteer run organization and depends on your donations.

Here's some more coverage from the September shows of Spring/Summer '09 with a bit of Pre-fall '09 thrown in just for fun. What I like to do is see trends that popped up for Spring but also continue into Fall/Winter '09, so I can invest in higher-quality pieces that'll last me into next year, instead of buying tons and tons of Forever21 trendy stuff each month. Or you can just drool over the runway shots. It works both ways.
Just Cavalli Pre-fall, Luella, Collette Dinnigan: I love the styling of this Just Cavalli look. I don't generally think of Just Cavalli as chic, but this look is drop-dead gorgeous, and the combination of cropped-motorcycle jacket and high-waisted pencil skirt is genius. Luella is always reliable for a good dose of quirky rebelliousness mixed with a touch of extreme girliness. This dress looks like it could have been ripped off a little girl at Easter, but the asymmetrical detailing takes it from childish to grown up. And doesn't that Collette Dinnigan dress look like chain mail? It's very Joan of Arc, who I love, and a little Balmain at the same time. Who hasn't caught Balmania by now?
Ossie Clark, Jean Paul Gaultier, Miu Miu: I'm head over heels that Ossie Clark is back. I love, love, love their old stuff. I don't know if the new seasons are exactly in their style, but I'm still way into this look. Maybe not the sheer pants/tights as much, but how sick is that magenta biker jacket? Magenta is a big Fall trend, and that would be a great investment piece. I know that sheer floral dress isn't exactly practical (or modest), but it has this amazingly vintage, festival, hippie vibe that make me unable to forget about it. Maybe with a nude slip? Maybe? And I always love Miu Miu. The Roman mosaic print on that dress totally reminds me of Fall '09 Burberry, and the combination of historical print and modern cut is strikingly chic.
Derek Lam, Dennis Basso, Phillip Lim: Nudes are a big trend for Spring and Fall, and I think if done right, like in this Derek Lam dress, they can be beautiful and flattering. The gold accents and sheen here keep the dress from disappearing into the model, and the modest, but girly, shape balances out the sexy hue nicely. I'm still not over last summer's ikat print, and so I'm happy to see it reincarnated in this Dennis Basso dress. It's got a bit of a tie-dye vibe, but I think tie-dye is making a come back. Tasteful tie-dye, of course, not the summer camp t-shirt variety. And who doesn't love a good zipper detail? Zippers and sheerness in the same dress is a lot of trend, but this Phillip Lim dress manages to be both on-trend and slightly classic at the same time.

Summer is finally in full swing here in Montana and these long, hot days have me craving tart, refreshing desserts. And these Mango Key Lime Pie Bars are my essential summer dessert. Like if I don't make them at least three times a summer, something is seriously wrong.
There are a few things that make these my go-to option: 1. I grew up in Miami and am therefore required to love all things Key Lime 2. They take barely any time to make and 3. They freeze beautifully and are absolute perfection eaten straight out of the freezer on a hot, sunny day…..which is what I tend to do during the hottest parts of the year. Because let me tell you, there is NOTHING better than hanging out on the patio, eating a refreshingly cold Mango Key Lime Pie Bar and letting the heat from the sunshine beat down on you. Throw in a hazy IPA to drink and you've pretty much found my happy place.

It's cold outside. So what? Hours of fun are just a few steps away at these amazing places in Elkhart County.
A brush with art
From oil paintings to eye-catching sculptures, stunning works of art just get better with age. Stroll the galleries of the Midwest Museum of American Art and you may spy a piece by Grandma Moses or Grant Wood. Wonderful galleries seem to be around every corner, from n.wirt design & gallery in downtown Elkhart, to restaurants such as West on Warren in Middlebury or Goshen College's Hershberger Art Gallery.
Choose your escape
For a getaway that's not far away, don your mask for an afternoon at the Hall of Heroes Superhero Museum, named a must-see by Fodor's travel writers. You can stock up on comic books at Secret Door Games or sample an eclectic array of board games.
Workout with your credit card
Shop your cares away with a few hours at the Old Bag Factory in Goshen or Coppes Commons in Nappanee. These one-time factories are now filled with handmade treasures from unique crafts to sturdy wood furniture, glam jewelry, and tasty meals and treats. Or do you delight in the hunt at antique shops? There's the Beardsley Avenue Antiques District in Elkhart, Goshen Antique Mall or Old Creamery Antiques and The Barn Door in Middlebury.
Tune out the chill
You can't get cold when you're tapping your toes, right? From the Lerner Theatre in downtown Elkhart to The Blue Gate in Shipshewana, a full schedule of fantastic concerts and musicals are just waiting for you. For a more intimate venue, see a great play at the historic Bristol Opera House, a concert at the Heritage Hall at Das Dutchman Essenhaus in Middlebury or the latest trendy band at Ignition Music in Goshen.
