[ NZ Youth Choir / 2 CD ]
Release Date: Friday 6 December 2019
From Bruckner to Body, Mendelssohn to Mews, and Whitacre to Wehi to, this CD celebrates ensemble singing from the choral canon as much as the artistic voice of Aotearoa New Zealand's composers
The New Zealand Youth Choir was founded in 1979 and the first national choir for this age group in the world. A sound and indeed a unique choral culture was created and nurtured for choral singing in New Zealand through this national choir. Only four Music Directors over four decades have passed on the legacy from decade to decade while evolving the sound and responding to shifts in music, New Zealand culture and our communities' increasing diversity.
This album is an anthology, a historic record of this journey. From the very first concert in August 1979 in Upper Hutt to a 2019 live recording of a contemporary Maori waiata in Wellington, this is the musical story of our national youth choir and all the people who have sung in it, worked for it, funded and supported it and enjoyed it's music.
Recordings included in this album were made in London, Vancouver, Freising (Germany), Salt Lake City, Texas, and many fine venues around New Zealand.
Nearly 1,000 singers have been trained and sung in this choir. We salute all who have walked this path before us and the many who are still to come.
Waerenga a hika was recorded at the joint 60th and 40th anniversary concert with the National Youth Orchestra in Wellington. Der Tod das ist die kühle Nacht and Little Man in a Hurry were performed at St John's Smith Square in London on NZYC's 11th international tour. Steal Away is a live recording at Sacred Heart Cathedral in Wellington in 2013. Songs 5-8 are taken from the 30th anniversary concert at Wellington Town Hall in July 2009. O Salutaris Hostia and Cloudburst were recorded in 2005. Herr, erhöre meine Worte and Naseby were recorded for the CD Gaude/Rejoice in 2004. Ehre sei Gott in der Höhe and Lux Aeterna were performed live at the 20th anniversary concert in June 1999. Recorded for the CD Winds that Whisper were The Moon is Silently Singing and The Love Song of Rangipouri in 1998.
CD 2 starts with three songs (17-19) recorded on NYC's North America Tour in Texas, Salt Lake City and Vancouver in 1993. The following three songs (20-22) stem from a 1992 recording at St Michael's Catholic Church in Remuera. From the 10th anniversary concert in August 1989 come the songs Epitaph for Moonlight, Chichester Psalms Mvt. 3 Adonai Adonai and Kyrie & Heilig. Beata Virgo was recorded at Freising Cathedral in Germany, on NYC's international tour in July 1988. Ecce tu pulchra es was performed at Dunedin Cathedral in 1987. Iustorum Animae was recorded at Wellington Cathedral in 1985. NYC's founder Guy Jansen arranged and conducted this version of God Defend New Zealand in 1982. The 1981 National Youth Choir performed O Magnum Mysterium at St. Patrick's Cathedral in Auckland. From the inaugural concert of the first National Youth Choir comes the final song, Locus Iste. Conducted by Director Guy Jansen with guest conductor Peter Godfrey, the concert was held at the Upper Hutt Civic Hall on Friday 24th of August 1979.

Healthy Diet
My Honey and I have been dieting for the past three weeks or so. No, no crazy on line diet or liquids from cans or food delivered to our door. We are doing very healthy things like eating light during the day, then having a great big spinach salad with healthy toppings in the evening. For evening snacks, we're having baby carrots. We are careful to get foods containing important nutrients as we do all of this. About twice a week we go out and have a good balanced dinner with plenty of protein, but very little fat or salt.
The good news is that it is working! We have both lost quite a few pounds and are well on our way to our desired weight. :)
It is all worth while when it works!
How do you diet when you realize it's time to take off a few pounds?
Lois :)
Programming note:
In real time we are on the road again. We are traveling South to Port Canaveral to board Freedom of the Seas. This blog will run a few days behind real time.
Images from the Freedom of the Seas soon. :)

With the royal wedding just ONE DAY away, we couldn't help but look back on the time that the royal bride-to-be sat down at our kitchen table with Rach in 2015.
At the time, "Suits" -- USA's legal drama that Meghan left earlier this year -- had just been renewed for a 5th season and the lifestyle blog that she has since retired, The Tig, wasn't even a year old.
RELATED: How to Copy Meghan Markle's Style -- No Matter What Size You Are!
(And little did she know, she was just over a year away from meeting her real-life Prince Charming, Prince Harry!)
"The name 'The Tig,' comes from a wine called tignanello," Meghan told Rach of her new website at the time. "I had a sip of this wine one day six or seven years ago, and I went, 'Oh, this is what people are talking about when they talk about the body, the structure that you find in wine.'
RELATED: Prince Harry & Meghan Markle's Royal Wedding Details: The Dress, The Guest List + How They'll Honor Princess D
"And I said," she continues, "'It's such an ah-ha moment, it's a tig moment!'"
So, essentially, her blog is named after wine. Amazing!
(And yes, she knows that's not how you pronounce the wine, but since most people pronounce it that way, she ran with it!)
Hear her dish on "The Tig" more in the video above -- and do you know her real name? (Hint: It's not Meghan!)
Find out what it is in the video below! (Spoiler alert: Rach is *super* fond of it.)

Luckily, I seem to be full of alliteration, rather than phlegm. Hooray!
In other news, I have no other news except that news that I am not telling you yet.
Wait for it.
Wait for it…
Ok. GO!
There's going to be a BitBookish comic in the Bookseller! Woo! I don't know when it will appear though. Maybe tomorrow, maybe in a few weeks. Who knows!
Be sure to write to the editor and tell them how much you love me and want to give me hugs. Not real hugs – I don't do well with those. I mean bookish hugs, AKA "books".
I don't know if that made sense but…you know… *cough cough*

Diet May Prime the Brain for Alzheimer's
December 11, 2013
Nutrition experts have long advised against eating a sugar-rich diet high in saturated fats because it can lead to obesity, diabetes and heart disease, all risk factors for Alzheimer's disease. Now a new study shows why such a diet may be bad for the brain.
Researchers found that eating a high-fat, sugary diet, even for a short time, robs the brain of a substance that helps clear the brain of beta-amyloid. In its toxic form, beta-amyloid can build up and form the gummy plaques that are a hallmark of Alzheimer's disease.
For the study, the researchers looked at 20 seniors with no signs of Alzheimer's disease, and 27 older adults with mild cognitive impairment, a form of memory loss that can lead to Alzheimer's disease. The study participants were also tested to see if they carried the APOE-E4 gene, which raises the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease (though many carrying the gene do not get Alzheimer's).
Half were randomly assigned to a diet high in saturated fat and with a high glycemic index. Foods with a high glycemic index quickly turn to sugar (glucose) in the blood, and include carbohydrate-rich foods like white bread, pasta, and sugar-rich baked goods. The diet consisted of more than 25 percent saturated fat (the kind found in meats and butter), 35 to 40 percent sugary carbohydrates, and 15 to 20 percent protein. They followed the diet for four weeks.
The other half ate a diet low in saturated fat and with a low glycemic index, though they ate the same number of calories. Foods with a low glycemic index include fiber-rich vegetables and whole grains. The diet consisted of less than 7 percent saturated fat, 55 to 60 percent low-glycemic carbohydrates, and 15 to 20 percent protein.
Over the four-week course of the study, diet seemed to alter levels of toxic beta-amyloid in the spinal fluid. Those who ate the low glycemic, low saturated fat diet tended to have lower levels of toxic beta-amyloid, while those who ate the high glycemic, high saturated fat diet had high levels of the toxic protein.
Normally, beta-amyloid binds to a chemical called apolipoprotein E, or ApoE, which then shuttles it out of the brain. But in those consuming the high-fat, high-sugar diet, ApoE levels were diminished, so more beta-amyloid was left in a free form, which might lead to plaque formation. The free beta-amyloid was also in a form that proves particularly toxic to brain cells. The findings were published in the journal JAMA Neurology.
The study does not prove that a high-fat sugary diet leads to Alzheimer's. Diet is just one of many factors that may be involved in the disease. But it does show how diet can adversely affect the brain, even after just a few weeks.
"The important lesson from the study is that dietary intervention can change brain amyloid chemistry in largely consistent and apparently meaningful ways – in a short period of time," wrote Dr. Deborah Blacker, director of the Gerontology Research Unit at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston in an editorial accompanying the study. "Does this change clinical practice for those advising patients who want to avoid dementia? Probably not, but it adds another small piece to the growing evidence that taking good care of your heart is probably good for your brain too."

Another day of college and NFL football- due to time restraints, this will be brief.
Lions (-3) vs. Bengals
-The Bengals are spiraling out of control these last few weeks- looked very, very bad. But here comes the Lions, the team known for making shitty teams look like the Pats. I think 3 points is small enough to take the Lions, but after being a life long Lions fan Im reluctant to bet anything on them.
Fresno State** vs Houston (-2)
I know literally nothing about either of these teams except Tom herman left and Houston clearly hasn't been the same. All teams get in trouble when they go down to Hawaii land, so I'm taking the Hawaiians– i stand by this nonsense.
No locks today. You're welcome.

Bantam Books mass market edition.
In paperback for the first time, this third volume of Louis L'Amour's collected stories gathers twenty-eight timeless tales of the American West.

Warning, some readers may find this post triggering.
I was sat in the staff canteen at work when a colleague, reading an article about a man who had committed suicide, turned to me and said "I don't know how anybody can be so selfish, leaving behind a wife and family." My heart sunk as I myself have on 2 occasions attempted suicide. I was horrified by his comments and I struggled to hold back the tears. I went back to work wishing I had had the confidence to challenge my colleague's views.
Whilst I can understand the anguish families must go through when they struggle to come to terms with a relative who has taken their own life, I also think that people need to be more understanding about why someone might take their life.
I suffer from severe clinical depression and have feelings of loneliness and isolation. If you feel as though you have nobody to talk to it can be so hard opening up. How do you tell a best friend, mother or father that you wake up every day with thoughts of suicide?
It's so easy for people to make judgements or assumptions about those who commit suicide. However, I think times are changing are and that the view of my colleague is not everybody's opinion but I believe we still have a long way to go in educating people on the effects of mental illness.
We need to keep being open and keep mental health in the public domain and to make people feel they are not alone. There are people out there that care and are willing to listen. Campaigns like Time to Change really do make a massive difference in people's lives. We need to keep challenging people's views and help end stigma and discrimination.

A very quick post to share these images from a super fun little bridal shoot I put together with some of my industry faves earlier this month. We wanted to create a sunkissed, slightly hippy, beachy boho bridal look – relaxed but at the same time bold and fun. Thankfully we did catch a few rays of sun before the heavens opened and drenched us all, and we had such fun putting it all together.

Couldn't have found a friendlier place to put my children in, all the staff make you feel welcomed and my children never want to leave"
"Marie and her awesome team of educators are professional, hardworking and compassionate. Our family was made to feel welcome and valued from the minute we enrolled our son. All the staff are friendly, know our names and nothing is too much trouble. Our son has thrived at Teenie Weenies, both educationally and socially, and I would (and do) recommend the centre to my family and friends in the area."
I don't see the team at Teenie Weenies as just a day care centre – it's like family.
The care and love they've shown my children is beyond anything I could have ever hoped for.
The facilities are always clean and being reinvigorated and the development and learning curriculum clearly communicated and implemented.
The most nurturing, caring, stimulating environment you could ever wish for.
After moving house to a new area, I was hesitant to change childcare centres until I walked into Teenie Weenies. I knew it was the right place for my children to attend and it has been the best experience for my girls. The educators love my kids, and have made them feel like family from the very first day. The director is always available for any questions or needs that you have and my kids have flourished under the care of Teenie Weenies!
Teenie Weenies is an outstanding childcare facility and beyond our expectations. The staff could not be any more committed to the care, and the social, emotional, physical and intellectual development of our children, Jason and Jordan, and their peers. The staff constantly upload day to day activities of our children onto Kinderloop allowing us parents to stay updated on what our children have been doing throughout the day. They are much happier, brighter and more relaxed now and we are thankful to the team at Teenie Weenies.
Our three children have all attending Teenie Weenies and we couldn't be happier. Teenie Weenies provides a safe and nurturing environment for children to explore, discover and interact with their peers through play. The teachers are friendly, caring and fun-loving, and know each child, providing fun and engaging learning experiences for the children. We are so lucky our children have had the opportunity to learn and grow surrounded by such passionate, encouraging teachers.
"We are very happy with the service and professionalism given to us by Teenie Weenies in caring for our son. We have seen great development from him and he enjoys attending and is learning lots of new things. He also loves all the food! Thanks for taking great care of our son and giving us peace of mind that our son is well looked after."
My son has been at Teenie Weenies since the beginning of 2016. I knew it was a quality centre but it really showed when my son started asking to go even when it wasn't his day! My son is treated as an important individual and his unique strengths are supported. The staff are always so professional, warm and friendly. Knowing my son is happy when I walk away, and having the comfort that he is in such safe and nurturing hands when I'm not present is so important to me. He just adores his educators and the staff love him back.
"This centre is wonderful. Both our children really enjoyed it."

We have learned that the reality TV star is willing to do anything to keep her daughter around. When it comes to her custody of baby Dream, Blac Chyna is not playing around!
We don't think we need to tell you what a bad idea it is to mess with Chyna especially when it comes to her children.
Her Six Flags demonstration should be warning enough you should stay away from Dream.
That being said, we hear that she is planning to be just as ruthless with Rob Kardashian if he attempts to change something in their custody agreement.
We have learned that Chyna is 'ready to fight' her second baby daddy to ensure things do not change in any way.
The mother of two's Six Flags fight video was an instant viral, but if any of her two baby daddies attempts to take her kids away from her because of it, she is ready to fight.
Reports have been claiming that Rob might use her public outburst to get more custody of their daughter Dream, but Chyna is ready to do whatever to stop that from happening.
— ROBERT KARDASHIAN (@robkardashian) March 22, 2018
Her attorney Walter Mosley has revealed that Rob and Chyna still have a valid custody agreement in place, and 'Chyna protecting her daughter should not affect it in any way.'
Blac has explained that the reason why she lashed out at a random woman was that she touched her daughter's hand, therefore getting too close for comfort.
That being said, reportedly, any attempts by Rob to change their custody arrangement will be defended by her attorney 'by any [legal] means necessary.'
'I don't condone violence nor am I a violent person but shout out to all of the amazing mothers out there that will protect their children at all cost,' the mother explained on social media, proving she wishes she reacted differently.
But in the end, she was supposedly 'horrified' for the little girl's safety so Chyna couldn't control herself.

Don't regulate markets on scant research, argues Henry Ergas
ONLY three weeks ago, at a conference organised by The Australian and the Melbourne Institute, Finance and Deregulation Minister Lindsay Tanner was trumpeting the Rudd 264's commitment to letting markets work. Now the 264 seems poised to regulate petrol retailing, despite findings by successive inquiries that the market is workably competitive.

Few of us are blessed with a naturally flawless complexion. You'd be surprised about the number of celebs with ages spots, acne scars and ridiculously large pores. We know that Photoshop that makes them look so great on the cover of Vogue, but that doesn't mean we can't be jealous of their blemish-free, poreless faces. But we've got good news. Even if your natural skin is red or pockmarked or unevenly toned, faking a perfect complexion isn't as hard as it might seem.
To achieve the smooth, pore-free look that celebs always rock on the red carpet, start with a primer. Primer is applied directly to the skin before foundation, concealer or blush in order to protect pores, smooth out imperfections and give makeup a long-lasting base to adhere to, meaning you won't sweat it off even on the hottest day (or date). Important tip – make sure to let your primer dry before applying cosmetics!
If you're looking to cover up a blemish, apply concealer after foundation (if you apply concealer first, you'll simply wipe it away). Instead, dot cover-up on blemishes that are still visible after foundation has been applied. Then use a finishing powder to blend and set it.
Finish off your look with natural blush and bronzer, and you're ready for your close-up.

I knew pretty early into my triplet pregnancy that a C-section would likely be my birth story. And honestly, I was perfectly fine with that. After struggling for so long to have a child of my own, I didn't care too … Continue reading
One Key to Getting the Triplets to Bed
Routine is EVERYTHING in this household.
I knew before the babies were born that we would have a pretty structured household and now a year and a half into parenting I can attest that as chaotic as my days are structure is everything. Not only is it what I need, my kids thrive on it!
So, when it comes to bed time routine we got it down triple time.
Daddy usually gets home from work around 5:30 and it is GO time from there. The kids eat dinner and we have our usual Justin Timberlake dance party following the meal. Up next is where the wind down begins.
Bath. Every single night. They love it (most of the time). As they have gotten older, their tub space has gotten smaller. After their bath we lotion them up and put them in their pajamas
We usually have about 10-15 minutes of play time, work on puzzles, drink their milk, look out the window for dogs, read stories. These moments are our daily moments where the 5 of us actually get to just share in quality time together as a family.
One important key element to bed time (and nap time) is the one and only "lovey." And by one and only I mean one and only–you better not lose this thing! Our babes have snuggled their lovies for a very long time and they definitely are very attached to them.
Bed time is at 7pm, so the triplets know our time is coming to an end as we sing our "night night" song: "Jesus loves the little children, all the children of the world. Red and yellow, black and white, they are precious in His sight. Jesus loves the little children of the world." The kids don't really know the words, but they know it is our night night song and say "Amen" over and over while Daddy and I sing.
Following our song we pray, which is truly such a sweet moment that we have started with the trio. Half the time they are not praying and likely not even understanding the meaning behind it, but one day they will. They know when you pray you say "amen."
We put each baby in their crib, give them a kiss and tell them how much we love them and say goodnight. The triplets don't usually make a fuss and usually always sleep through the night. We also have night lights and sound machine that runs through the night.
TaDa…that is our bed time routine. It is fairly simple. I don't know that there are any secrets–I think there is just one key ingredient: ROUTINE!!!
The Triplets usually always sleep through the night. We have worked hard to teach them to work things out on their own and they do a pretty good job.
Our morning starts at 7am. All over again. Sometimes the babes wake up at 6:15/6:30, but either way, we don't go in their room until 7.
Bed Time Routine in One minute
To My Friend Who is Dreading Mother's Day
To My Friend who is Dreading Mother's Day,
Dear Infertility, I hated you
Dear Infertility,
I hated you.
You steal dreams. You break hearts. You bring grief. You consume lives. You are the reason I couldn't get pregnant on my own. You drowned my heart in deep misery from the inability to become a Mother how most women do. You told me that my body wasn't good enough. You may have been a huge part of my story, but you never defined me. And on this day, two years ago, I kicked your ass. I defeated you. I showed you that there is victory in infertility and God finally planted life in my womb.
Infertility, there are so many things you brought with you when you entered my life. It wasn't just that I couldn't get pregnant. You brought me more tears than I ever thought I could shed. Because of you I laid on my bathroom floor in complete emptiness after countless negative pregnancy tests time and time again. I had to endure shots, bruises, and all kinds of meds because when you are infertile and you seek fertility treatment for help, that is what you are in for. You are expensive and exhausting physically, emotionally, and mentally. Infertility, you drowned my heart in disappointment and agony. And truthfully, it was pretty painful every time I heard the words "I'm pregnant" from someone other than myself. And yet, in the midst of all of that-you brought me hope.
As much as I hated you, Infertility, I am also so thankful that you were my story. You made me strong. Even before I got pregnant, my strength was rising. Not only did I feel like Superwoman after all of those injections, meds, blood draws, doctor visits, etc. but I found strength emotionally, as well. I learned how to be brave and walk our story with faith trusting that God knew every single detail better than I did. I learned how to be courageous as my husband gave me a progesterone shot that hurt like you wouldn't believe every single night for 2 months so I could get and stay pregnant. Infertility, you taught me that I am never alone in my darkest days. Never did I imagine I would be labeled as infertile. Nor did I imagine that we would seek fertility treatment. However, infertility, it is because of you that I get to be a Mom to Charlize, Sawyer, and Jax. This love that I get to experience with them is absolutely undeniable. It is the greatest feeling in the world and if you weren't apart of my story, I would be missing out on a truly honorable role as their Mommy. It is because of you that two years ago I found myself lying on a Doctors bed waiting for two precious and perfectly made embryos to be transferred to my womb. Infertility, God used you in in my life to make a platform for my story and reach the hearts of people walking the same pain I was in. And it is because of you that I have a greater understanding of what hope really is.
Infertility, I don't hate you, not anymore. God makes beauty out of ashes. You were my ashes, but God made you beautiful. If it wasn't for you-for the extreme heartache you caused me, the lies you told me, the grief you brought my heart over and over again- not only would I not be a Mom to my darling hope triplets, but I can now truly grasp on to how powerful and remarkable it means to have hope in Jesus Christ. Hope anchors the soul. Hope does not disappoint. Hope is having faith for what seems impossible. It is trusting God when it feels hopeless. My journey to parenthood was nothing short of hope. God had every single detail orchestrated from the second He planted the seed of Motherhood in my heart. Infertility, today, when I really reflect on those years when you were apart of my life, I can only say, Thank you.
Mama of Hope
Mom vs. Mom
A couple weeks ago the perfect storm hit our household. It is the hardest when your kids are sick. Sickness in our household means triple everything… the snot, the fevers, the tantrums. However, not only did this storm include our sick triplets, but my husband and I were also sick, along with my parents, with whom we live with. In the midst of all the snotty noses and fevers, I also somehow managed to dislocate a disk in my back. This made feeling sick look laughable. I have never had a back injury before and this was incredibly painful, especially while trying to provide the love and nurturing care my babies needed. It indeed was the perfect equation for the perfect storm.
The storm that I was in quickly brought me back to the heart wrenching and painful season where I faced and dealt with postpartum anxiety and depression after the birth of my babies. I could feel myself becoming incredibly overwhelmed by my kids so easily. I was short tempered, exhausted, and running thin on energy and physicality. I could not lift them or bend forward. Not to mention, the nasty cold that seemed to raid our entire household was lingering, if not getting worse, for everyone. I had to find friends and family to help me in my home because my inability to lift prevented me from being able to provide the care my babies needed and required. However, it wasn't just me who was run down and running on empty fumes and snot, but the triplets were, as well. They were whiny, cranky, misbehaved, and just not having it either. We were all spent.
One morning I had just given my son, Sawyer, his nebulizer treatment. He fought his way through it and it was hard on my body trying to hold him still without putting too much pressure or movement on my back. It was frustrating for us both and only built more anxiety in me. We finally completed his treatment and I needed to change Jax' diaper. He hates getting his diaper changed. He kicked like a strong karate kid several times and even got me in my stomach once. That was when I lost it. The weight of the week came out of me like a ticking time bomb.
"I am just trying to change your diaper!!!" I yelled. I screamed really.
At this point I was crying. Jax was too. Guilt succumbed me. I looked up and Sawyer was staring directly into my eyes. I was immediately ashamed of how I responded. How could I be so angry over this? How could I respond with my own frustrations by screaming at my child–over a diaper change nonetheless? What did Sawyer see when his deep blue eyes just stared into mine? Did he see what I saw? Did he see all my imperfections as a Mother? Did he love me any less? Did he see the failure that I am?
Within in seconds, I was crying… the ugly kind with snot all over my face and tears that uncontrollably rolled down my cheeks. It was in that moment where God revealed His grace to me as my son Sawyer leaned in to give me a hug me. Instantly I pulled all three of my kids as close to my body that I could. My tears were overflowing. I could not stop crying. "Please forgive Mama! I am so sorry for yelling. I love you so much. " My heart was so ashamed and I was so disappointed in myself as a Mom.
I kept thinking about Sawyer and wondered if he saw me the way I saw myself in that moment. Did he see the anger and exhaustion? Could he tell that I was spent? run down? overwhelmed? Did he think I was failing him and his siblings as a Mom? Did he actually love me any less?
And the truth is, Yes. Sawyer saw me in my weakest most vulnerable moment. He saw something ugly in me, as his Mom. However, Sawyer responded to me in the same way Jesus responds to us. My also tired, whiny, energetic, and sick boy leaned in and hugged me. He extended grace and love towards me in one of my lowest mom moments. Through this beautiful act of love my son showed me, God gave me a glimpse of his sufficient and unmerited grace. Grace is what we desire the most when our guilt and wrong-doings are exposed. This was truly a remarkable moment to have my son showcase to me such a beautiful picture of Jesus. We always think it will be the other way around, but God uses our kids to teach us about His grace, His greatness, and His glory.
I am not proud of this moment and I know there were many other ways I could have handled the situation, but this experience caused me to really think about how I feel about myself as a Mom and how my kids really see me as their Mom. At one point I even said to my husband, "The last week has taken a tole on my heart. I feel like anything good about me as a Mom has been sucked dry." Even though my son responded to my actions with such love and grace, I still struggled to see the beauty he saw in me. The same beauty Jesus sees in me.
However, the truth is it is always easier to find the negative and point out everything I am doing wrong and not accomplishing as a Mother. I am not patient. I don't have confidence. I am short tempered. I am mean. I don't use kind words all the time. I am constantly behind on laundry and cleaning. I give my kids candy with breakfast sometimes. I don't know what I am doing. I am not worthy. I am always failing.
The beauty in our children is they don't see us like this. We will never be perfect. and our kids may see our short-comings, but they are quick to love us when we fail them. Even in our short-tempered, ugly parenting moments our kids see us as loving, nurturing, caring, fun, strong, and playful. They see us as their heroes. If only we could have eyes like our children, especially in the moments we are not proud of, I believe it would really help us parent better and learn to walk through parenthood with grace, forgiveness, love, and imperfections. And ultimately, they see us the same way Jesus sees us. They see our flaws, but love us through them.
Sawyer didn't see me the way I saw me. I mean, he probably was like "Woah, Mom!" But he followed my anger with a hug. That is love. That is forgiveness. I was still his hero. Within minutes the triplets were laughing and dancing and the moment was forgotten. It was a moment, though, that I will never forget. It was a moment that taught me a valuable lesson in Grace. It taught me how to be a better Mother for my children. It was a moment where God used my son to show me Jesus. It was a reminder that Jesus is the answer to my brokenness. I know I will continue to fall short as a Mother and will have more moments that I wish I could erase or handle differently. However, this powerful moment showed me how much I am loved even when I fail.
Goodbye Pacifiers, Hello One Nap-All in One week!!
So we finally made the dreaded decision to take away the triplets pacifiers. For those of you whose children LOVE their paci's then I am sure you can understand that the pacifier struggle is REAL. The triplets have always loved their, … Continue reading

Our Vacation U-turn
I was supposed to be in Acapulco, Mexico this week bronzing on a sandy beach with a cocktail in hand surrounded by my very best friends soaking in the warm sun and cherishing every second of a kid-free week!
But I am not…
Several months ago, my husband surprised me that he was taking me on a very special getaway with our closest friends for an ENTIRE week. We haven't been on a real vacation since we decided to try for a baby years ago, so this was really exciting. An entire week of relaxation on a beach surrounded by people I love felt like a dream.
We found sitters for the triplets. All the details were made and booked. I got a new bikini. Everything was falling into place so perfectly. Just a couple weeks out of the trip, my husband realized his passport was expired. It felt like a little bump in the road. However, what normally you think wouldn't have been a big deal, turned into a real vacation nightmare.
Ryan somehow managed to not submit all the paperwork when he applied to have his passport expedited, so his renewal was of course denied. Things, unfortunately, just got worst after that. Long story short-after many phone calls and in person visits there was nothing we could do about Ryan's passport mishap, which we still don't have in hand, by the way. We fought to the very last minute to resolve the issue and hoped to find ourselves on a plane headed straight to vacation bliss, but instead we found ourselves doing what we always do: parenting, marriage-ing… what a vacation.
Talk about disappointment. A week vacation for a parent is like winning the lottery. We needed this break. The time away, the sound of the ocean breeze with no interruptions, adult conversation, romance… all of it. We needed all of it. After so much planning and preparation, our week away turned into pure frustration. For whatever reason, it just wasn't in our cards to make this trip.
My husband knew how disappointed I was that this vacation was not happening, so in normal "Ryan" fashion he did the best he could last minute to pull off something pretty amazing even if it was just for one night. He managed to get us a one night stay in the most remarkable hotel I have ever stayed in: The Montage in Laguna Niguel.
Literally, a dream.
We stayed in one of their gorgeous bungalows right on the cliffs. It was absolutely breathtaking. We could hear the ocean waves from our room and the weather was perfect. Ryan and I needed this quality time. It is so easy to get caught up in parenting and the chaos of our daily lives. With the triplets, we are constantly in full blitz mode. I know how important it is to have quality time with Ryan and make our relationship a priority, but to be honest, sometimes it just doesn't happen.
To be able to deeply connect and relish in this one night together meant a lot to me. Not to mention, soaking in the quiet air and sun beaming on my skin as I literally did absolutely nothing as the hours passed through the day felt pretty nice, as well. I sported my new bikini. Took a LONG luxurious bubble bath in a huge tub. I slept in a king size bed. I took a peaceful walk on the beach and soaked in God's beauty. I felt like royalty. I did absolutely nothing. I was lazy and slept in. I drank champagne and enjoyed romance with my sweet Ryan. It was certainly no week vacation, but it was its own kind of perfect and I loved every single second of it!
Celebrating the Scars
Recently, I was genuinely congratulated, twice in one week, on my "baby bump." I am not pregnant. However, I do have a little left over postpartum pooch, but I have always felt amazing and proud of my body after having my triplets; what … Continue reading

Do you listen to music when you read manga? I think I might be retarded or something because I can't focus unless there's complete silence.
I'm pretty sure that not "multitasking" is just not having autism. Only thing I can do while listening to music is browse 4chan, since 4chan takes little to no focus at all. Pic not related.
Yeah. Not lyrical shit; usually instrumental stuff only.
Boards of Canada, Tycho, Bonobo..etc
I find it hard to do anything without something playing in the background
but music is too distracting so I usually just throw rainy mood on.
What do you listen to when you read comfy stuff like YKK?
I just leave r/a/dio on. Hell, I've just left r/a/dio on almost 24/7 for about 2 years now.
Usually the OST from the OVA.
Anyone else listen to Kanye when fapping to manga? On Sight is like my dick's theme song
Harsh noise
Listening to swans or God speed you black emperor while reading Buraiden Gai gave it a way more intense feeling, especially during the more stressful moments
If it has an anime adaption, I listen to the anime's ost. If not, I just listen to whatever the fuck or nothing at all.
I listen to music when I do pretty much anything to get my lastfm e-dick up
Depends if I'm reading it for the first time or not. I usually dont.
I have 2/3 your plays in twice the time (2 years)
are you a /mu/tant
I only ever really go to sharethreads on /mu/
I just listen to music when I'm doing anything on my computer except watching stuff
I don't leave my house often so it adds up quickly
>Do you listen to music when you read manga?
Yeah. Shit get's boring yo.
Plus, when some dramatic shit is going down in whatever I'm reading then suddenly something like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPiyykSczH8 comes up in my playlist, it makes it suddenly hilarious.
Yup. The only time I'd ever prefer silence > noise is when I'm laying in my bed contemplating life.

Art and Writings of Engelbert Mveng SJ (1930-1995)
Fr. Engelbert Mveng SJ (May 9, 1930—April 22, 1995) was a Cameroonian Jesuit priest, artist and scholar, who researched and published in theology, history and anthropology. His scholarly ideas found aesthetic expression in his numerous paintings. Arising from the heart of Africa's traditional aesthetics, Mveng's art pieces found their way to different parts of the world and became a real patrimony to humanity. For example, his Stations of the Cross and Resurrection adorn the chapel of Hekima College in Nairobi (Kenya), his Our Lady of Africa is found in the Basilica of the Annunciation in Nazareth (Israel), and his mural depicting angelic activity through history is in the Holy Angels Church in Chicago (USA). Thus, in a manner that was hitherto unprecedented, Mveng used art to express Africa's deepest spiritual insights into universal Christian phenomena.
This great artist-scholar was brutally murdered by an unknown assailant in the night of 22 April 1995 in Younde, Cameroon. Read more

Medicaid Coverage of Dental Care for Pregnant Women
Despite the validated importance and safety of dental care during pregnancy, utilization of dental care by at-risk women is low, in large part, due to a lack of coverage for this population. This policy brief examines state Medicaid dental coverage for pregnant women and confirms that it is inadequate overall. While states may elect adult dental coverage, few have specifically targeted a dental benefit for pregnant women.
NOTE: CDHP released a new report in September 2018 taking a fresh look at barriers to dental care in pregnancy and strategies to prioritize pregnant women's oral health. Find the policy brief, "Oral Health during Pregnancy," and a related infographic about hurdles to Medicaid dental care online here.

First shows announced for Brighton Festival 2018
Ahead of the full programme launch on Thurs 15 Feb 2018, here's a quick round-up of the Brighton Festival events that have already been revealed…
Hofesh Shechter: Grand Finale
Brighton Festival co-commission
This latest work from internationally-celebrated choreographer (and Brighton Festival 2014 Guest Director) Hofesh Shechter is a spectacularly bold and ambitious new piece featuring ten dancers. Designed by Tom Scutt with lighting by Tom Visser, Grand Finale is at once comic, bleak and beautiful, evoking a world at odds with itself, full of anarchic energy and violent comedy. Filtering this irrepressible spirit, Shechter creates a vision of a world in freefall, part gig, part dance, part theatre and wholly original.
Produced by Hofesh Shechter Company and commissioned by Georgia Rosengarten. Commissioning partners are Sadler's Wells, Théâtre de la Ville-Paris / La Villette-Paris and Brighton Dome & Brighton Festival
The Voice Project: The Arms of Sleep
Brighton Festival co-commission
An overnight choral sleepover experience created by directors Sian Croose and Jonathan Baker in which audiences encounter a unique dream-like and immersive night of music and stories, sound and images. Guests will be given a bed each and spend the night surrounded by sound and shadows, drifting between sleep and wakefulness. The ethereally beautiful music has been written by Helen Chadwick, Orlando Gough and Jonathan Baker.
Co-commissioned by Norfolk & Norwich Festival, Brighton Dome & Brighton Festival. Co-produced by Norfolk & Norwich Festival and The Voice Project. The Arms of Sleep premiered at Norfolk & Norwich Festival 2017.
Calixto Bieito: The String Quartet's Guide to Sex and Anxiety
The tempestuous relationship between sex, anxiety and music comes to a head in a remarkable new production from one of Europe's most exciting theatre directors, Calixto Bieito. Music and drama collide as the award-winning string powerhouse The Heath Quartet performs alongside an equally stunning quartet of actors to deliver an unmissable montage of melody and madness. The eight artists will take you on a journey through time to explore how our innermost thoughts battle with our artistic impulses.
Presented by Birmingham Repertory Theatre, in association with Brighton Dome & Brighton Festival and Holland Festival.
Your Place
19-20 May 2018, Hangleton Community Centre and Hangleton Park
26-27 May 2018, Manor Gym, basketball court and playing fields
Two weekends of free performances and arts activities in Hangleton and East Brighton. Delivered in partnership with Brighton People's Theatre and community steering groups, both weekends will present international and national artists alongside local artists and community groups. Artists, community groups and an artist-in-residence are currently being sought to take part in Your Place 2018.
Visual artist David Shrigley is the Brighton Festival 2018 Guest Director. Read the full Brighton Festival 2018 Guest Director announcement.

The Conservation Council says any changes to the State Government's 'first in first served' water policy should apply retrospectively.
The Water Minister Bill Marmion announced a review of the policy after a backlash from farmers in the Mid West.
They were angry Gindalbie Metals had been granted a licence to draw five gigalitres, or five billion litres, of water from the Mingenew aquifer.
Mr Marmion says all policy options will be considered but the changes will not apply retrospectively.
The Conservation Council's Piers Verstegen says the Government needs to amend existing agreements to make them sustainable.
"We've seen recent water allocation decisions like the allocation of 5 billion litres of groundwater to a Midwest mining company to wash iron ore, at the expense of the environment and food production," he said.
"So, the existing policy does not reflect a sustainable approach to water use and must be changed as soon as possible."
The Greens' Alison Xamon says the review should apply to the Mingenew aquifer allocation.
She says the water policy is outdated and the review is long overdue.
"The first-in, first-served policy served us well in the very early days of colonisation but I don't think it has any relevance to today's water climate," she said.
"We need to make sure that we are much more strategic in our water use and we need to make sure that we are prioritising particularly our agricultural industries over mining."

And we're back...Part 1
Friday night we checked into the Holiday Inn SunSpree. It was an okay hotel. It had some nice features but a Disney hotel it was not. Dh commented on how dirty it was (I never noticed) and how there were people smoking everywhere (did notice that). It had a kid's movie theatre, arcade, kid's pool and regular pool, and "basketball court" (maybe a quarter size one- out in the parking lot). It also had a kid's check in desk where they could get goodie bags although all I saw were some coloring pages and single crayons. The rooms were called "Kid Suites". They were a slightly larger than average hotel room with half of the room partitioned off into the Kid's Suite. Our KS had bunkbeds, a toddler bed, and a TV and desk/dresser area with 2 kid size chairs. #1 problem- it was dark in there but we could live with that. #2 and major issue- the bunk bed ladder was loose as was the top protective railing! We had Logan sleep in the bottom bunk and Ian in the toddler bed. We brought Bella's pack n play so she had her own familiar bed. There was also a small kitchenette in the room. We had a king size bed that was no lie- ROCK HARD. We would have slept better on the floor. Both dh and I are complaining about back pain from sleeping there. We did nothing but toss and turn. Horrible. Dh says never again will we go stay somewhere that's not Disney. I say we'll just find a better hotel or a condo. Here are some pics of the room...
There were 2 chairs and a small table as well as the tv stand/dresser across from the bed.
The TV and desk are off to the right
Kitchenette. The safe was under the counter.
Decent size bathroom- the whole right side was mirrors. The sink is behind that wall.
Bella hanging out on the king size (and royally hard!) bed.
Part 2 tomorrow...

Sorry to hear there were issues with the hotel. It's always hit and miss when all you have are internet pics to go by, before you go. Our bed at Nick Hotel was hard as a rock too...no fun...I feel your back pain.
- Melodie said...
We had the same problem with the painfully hard bed at the Nickelodeon Family Suites. And we're going back there in a coupole of weeks. I don't know if I'll be able to take a full week on that horrible bed.

Nothing makes you appreciate your own bed like staying somewhere with rock hard beds! Just hug your pillow a little tighter tonight to let it know you missed it! LOL
I'm with Robert. I like staying at a Disney property. We just vistited Port Orleans and DT Disney on Friday and it was great, I can't wait to stay in August!

jones9470 :
well you guys did fine job on everything ive seen so far, ps your personal acu unit with ball cap is bad ass, is uppoese a big goal of mine would be to learn how to redo models to make em like that
night sceptre101 :
aduke yes it is. do you know how i can make the unit also do rappeling without me doing any commands, i.e i'm just a watching soldier not in the unit
Enad :
Do these work in ArmA II? I saw a screenshot on the BI Forums and it had these and it looked like it was in Chernarus.
jones9470 :
hmmhmm just curious, so i have got it to where i can drop a group somewhere via fastrope when im playing as the group, usually do a flyinheight to a low altitude and then have a 30 second wait on the helis next waypoint which would be where we would fastrope at, but for some reason after dropping the crew out it drops one guy and then takes off usually killing the rest while there fastroping, lol I even tried attaching a radio trigger to the waypoint so he wont leave until I hit it but it doesnt work either... is there a way to do it lol.. but again i must say these are some of the finer helis in arma.
ADuke :
[quote]monty67t :
MH-60K should be green not black.
When they get dirty or wet they look black, but it's the same green as the regular Army UH-60s.
ADuke :
I want to finish up the new version for ArmA and get started porting to ArmA 2 but I need one piece of information:
Does anyone know if in real life if a uh60/mh60 has the esss attached, can it NOT have mini-guns on the doors?
As soon as I get that bit of info I can finish.
It is not the ESSS that limits the use of door mounted weapons but rather the ERFS.
The ESSS is what holds on the ERFS, so the ESSS by itself would not inhibit the use of a door gun.
However, as per the UH-60 -10, the M60D door gun (as well as other door mounted weapons) is prohibited when the ERFS is installed on the inboard pylons. When the ERFS is only installed on the outboard pylons, a door gun can be used only when the ERFS pintle mount stop is installed which limits the movement of the weapon to keep it from shooting the fuel cells.

Another indication that the AI surge may not wither. SAS knows its analytics, we used them extensively, and it is investing heavily in AI tech. Much different than in the last emergence of the idea. Gets back to the definition of the term, which we debated at a talk last week. My view: AI is more than JUST analytics, it is analytics with cognitive, augmentative and autonomous capabilities added. To make these ideas more readily implemented and delivered.
SAS to invest $1 billion in AI for industry uses, education, R&D
The AI investment is part of SAS' efforts to make data, AI, machine learning and algorithms more return driven and consumable. By Larry Dignan in ZDNet
SAS said it will invest $1 billion in artificial intelligence over the next three years as it develops its analytics platform, educates data scientists and targets industry-specific use cases.
The investment is part of SAS' effort to build a higher profile. SAS is an analytics and data science pioneer, but the privately-held company has been quietly retooling its business and products.... "

EDINBURG — The UTRGV baseball team scored six runs in the sixth to come from behind and beat Illinois at Chicago (UIC) 9-4 in the series finale on Sunday at UTRGV Baseball Stadium.
UTRGV (5-3) trailed 4-0 with two on and one out in the sixth when an error brought home the first run. Then, with two outs, UIC's Jacob Key (0-1) issued a walk to load the bases before a pair of hit batsmen forced home two runs. A passed ball scored the tying run, and then sophomore Coleman Grubbs laced a two-run single to give UTRGV the lead.
Grubbs and sophomore Elijah Alexander each finished 2 for 5 with a run scored. Senior Austin Siener went 2 for 4 with a double, a walk and two runs scored while sophomore and Mercedes alum Matthew Mendoza went 2 for 3 with a double, a walk and a run scored.
UTRGV added a run in the seventh on an error and then completed the scoring in the eighth, when senior Cris Castillo hit a two-run double.
That made a winner of junior Chase Adams (2-0), who struck out six in six innings while allowing four runs (one earned) on five hits and four walks.
Junior McAllen Rowe alum Ryan Jackson struck out five in three scoreless innings for his second save.
UIC (5-2) led 1-0 after the first on an Aaron Ackerman sacrifice fly.
UIC added three unearned runs in the fifth, with one scoring on a wild pitch and two more coming on a Scott Ota double.
UTRGV hosts No. 25 Mississippi on Manic Monday at 7 p.m. at UTRGV Baseball Stadium. The first 100 fans in attendance will receive stadium cups. Gates open at 6.

With Lok Sabha electioneering gathering momentum across the country, the fisherfolk has put forth a series of demands, including a separate fisheries ministry, before political parties and the leaders who are contesting from the coastal constituencies.
In a memorandum, the fishermen community under the banner of National Fishworkers Forum (NFF) has asked the political parties as well as the leaders contesting from the coastal belt to address the various issues that are of quite relevant to the fishing sector in the country.
Talking to kadapuram.com, NFF general secretary T Peter said the demands that they have put forth are all quite relevant. The political parties and the leaders contesting from the coastal region cannot ignore the demands of the fishing community. The fishing community has a good voter strength in many of the constituencies and no one can ignore them, he added.
One of the major demands that they have put forth is the constitution of a fisheries ministry at the Centre. In the budget, the government has only announced a separate department for fisheries.
They also demand to revoke the notification regarding the Coastal Zone Regulation, stating that a new legislation protecting the fishermen community should be brought in. The NFF also says that the government should desist from the proposed shipping channel. The leaders said that the proposed shipping channel should only be allowed outside the fishing ground.
They have also asked the political parties to take serious note of unscientific fishing methods, including the usage of LED lights. With respect to hatcheries and nurseries in relation to sea fish, the NFF said that the project should only be taken ahead after consultations with the fishing community.
They stated that the P Murari committee recommendation on facilitating and promoting traditional and small scale fisheries sector should be implemented. Another demand that they have put forth is to ban bull trawling, pair trawling. Restrictions should be imposed for trawling within 12 nautical miles, the memorandum said.
The NFF also asked the political leaders to make available all the Central benefits that the farmers get to the fishing community.
Other demands put forth by the NFF are as follows
- Include disasters due to sea erosion, heavy rains and cyclone in the list of natural disasters and to provide assistance to the destruction of fishing vessels and houses in the coastal region.
- Prevent restoration of public water bodies and desist from interlinking of rivers.
- Take immediate steps for the security of fishermen at sea
- Provide protection to women and ensure their job security at fishing harbours and fish landing centres.

My intention was to fix occupations which were completely off-base, such as political commentator Stephanie Miller being listed as a comedian, or professional wrestler Pedro Morales being listed as a sportscaster. I appreciate a difference between vocalist & musician, but, going down that road might require hundreds of changes, which would be quite time consuming. The exception is profiles where a singular occupation needs to be changed to the plural (as was the case for Firefall and PM Dawn). Actor & comedian is also another road I'd rather not venture down, since there are a number of celebrities who could be listed as equally as an actor or as a comedian. The focus is on occupations which are completely wrong, not so much ones that are down the same road (if that makes sense). Next time, I'll have to think my ideas through more thoroughly before I make them public (a diva deserves a learning curve, right?).
