PPL Policy could become a defacto baby bonus
Paid Parental Leave schemes that create disincentives for women to return to work and stifle workplace innovation in the business sector, will not be of long-term value, according to several major women's advocacy groups. Read the full release here – NFAW Media Release May 2013 PPL Policy could become a defacto baby bonus
Paid Parental Schemes Compared
The National Foundation for Australian Women (NFAW) has compared and contrasted Paid Parental Leave (PPL) schemes of the major political parties in the lead-up to Election 2013. In doing so, NFAW has assumed that a national PPL scheme should address both the provision of appropriate time for the child and parent to establish settled relationships, and strategies which encourage and maintain the principal carer's work-force attachment. Supporting partner involvement in the early months of the child's life should also be a goal. Read more here…..PPL Policy comparisons July 2013
Equal Shared Parental Responsibility
Presumption of equal shared parental responsibility (ESPR) and emphasis on shared parenting be removed from the Family Law Act: The presumption of ESPR and emphasis in the Act on shared parenting were not changed by the 2012 amendments to the Act. The presumption is not meant to apply in cases of violence and abuse; however this does not always work in practice. Why is this the case? It is often difficult to 'prove' violence/ abuse to the satisfaction of the court because it occurs 'behind closed doors', many victims can be unrepresented in court because of limited legal aid and many matters are settled in mediation, often without legal assistance. The presumption continues to place victims immediately on the 'backfoot' in the court or in mediation, resulting in orders/ agreements that include ESPR or shared parenting provisions that can: WLSA Priorities document

Justice Court judge candidate files petition
By JAMIE PATTERSON
Managing Editor
Incumbent Bennie "Kay" Warrington filed a petition this week to contest the general election.
Ballot boxes for the southern district justice court position were reviewed last week. Circuit Clerk Susie Bradshaw received Warrington's petition Monday afternoon.
Warrington has claimed that many voters were not allowed to vote for the seat in the southern district.
Danny Neely defeated Warrington by a single vote earlier this month. Neely totaled 1,590 votes to Warrington's 1,589.
No further information was available as of press time.

19th C. Antique Essex Crystal Terrier Dog Ring
A large clear rock crystal has been cut en cabochon with a distinctly high dome. Hand carved on the flat underside in reverse intaglio is the figural representation of the head of a white colored terrier. The pronounced three-dimension trompe l'oeil image has been laboriously hand painted in polychromatic enamel. The exquisite detail of expressive brown eyes, perky ears and an overall engaging attitude adds charm and depth to this little Victorian wonder.
The crystal backed against the gold enhances the perception of depth of this "miniature painting under glass". A scalloped surround of 18k yellow gold is set with eighteen (18) rose cut diamonds of an estimated total diamond weight of .18 carats. Most likely the piece was originally a stickpin and has been converted to a ring with a period shank of 14k yellow gold. The shaped and patterned shank has shoulders are appointed with an acanthus leaf motif.
Date: Circa 1880.
Measurements: 3/4 of an inch (1.8 cm) in length north to south on the hand and rises 3/8 of an inch (1 cm) in height off the finger. Weight of 8.1 grams (5.2 dwt).
Ring Size: US 7-1/2 (UK O-1/2; Int. Dia. 17.75; Euro 56 mm; Japan 15) and easily can be sized to fit most. Ring sizing information.
Condition: Very good for the crystal which is bright and clear; one rose cut diamond possibly replaced; previously a stickpin or similar piece now converted to a ring with an added period shank. Evidence of a former resizing visible upon close inspection or with magnification.
Note: Diamonds have not been removed from their mounts to preserve the integrity of the setting. All diamond weights have been approximated by measurement and formula and may vary from actual weights.

We shall add automated testing of the Add Maven2 archetypes. This way, the Codehaus CI can even test these on Maven 2.x and 3.x at each change.
Issue Links
- depends upon
CARGO-517 Use Proxy-Configuration from settings.xml
CARGO-890 Default home for created container configuration should be in target folder when using the maven plugin
CARGO-895 The default installDir for zipUrlInstaller (java.io.tmp) is inapproriate for some platforms (e.g. Mac OS)
- is related to
CARGO-868 Update wiki regarding use of archetype:generate instead of archetype:create
CARGO-358 Add tutorial to explain how to do in-place web development with Cargo m2 plugin
CARGO-933 Move maven 2 plugin samples (integration tests) to the plugin's project
I've done most of the refactoring work in r2657.
However, some things still need to be fixed:
1. The integration tests are not performed on all profiles (server types). I couldn't get it to work on jonas for example and need to look into that some more.
2. It would be great if I could get the assignment of server port number to be a little bit cleaner, and not use a suystem property as it is now. I would like to filter it into the generated project when creating it from the archetype, but need some time to figure that out.
I had tried to solve the second point by adding an archetype variable, for example cargo.servlet.port with default value 8080; but did not manage to.
I looked into #2, but can't find a cleaner way of doing it. One problem is that filtering by the invoker plugin seems to be limited to POMs, invoker.properties, and files like goals file and profiles file. I'd like properties files specified in invoker.properties to be filter, which I couldn't get to work.
So, we'll leave #2 as it is.
No, #1 is still an issue for me. For some reason it doesn't work to build with jonas or jboss. The timeout isn't long enough. Haven't domne any research yet, but I'm a little bit surprised as I know it has work in earlier releases when I have tested the archetypes.
Could you try the webapp-single-module for example by enabling step 4 and 5 in src/it/generate-and-build/invoker.properties?
I've taken a look, and there is one big issue: for some reason, the servlet.port argument setting in the maven-invoker-plugin call does not work and the containers are attempted to start on port 8080.
Could you please take a look?
It seems to work for me. I get this in the build.log file, for example:
2011-02-23 07:59:14.122:INFO::Started firstname.lastname@example.com:64104
[INFO] [beddedLocalContainer] Jetty 6.x Embedded started on port [64104]
[INFO] [beddedLocalContainer] Jetty 6.x Embedded is stopping...

[WARNING] [talledLocalContainer] INFO: Starting Coyote HTTP/1.1 on http-64104
[INFO] [talledLocalContainer] Tomcat 6.x started on port [64104]
[INFO] [talledLocalContainer] Tomcat 6.x is stopping...
[WARNING] [talledLocalContainer] Feb 23, 2011 7:59:52 AM org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol pause

[WARNING] [talledLocalContainer] Feb 23, 2011 7:59:53 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardService stop
[WARNING] [talledLocalContainer] INFO: Stopping service Catalina
[INFO] [talledLocalContainer] Tomcat 6.x is stopped
Or are you talking about the other three containers?
One possible reason for this not working for you is that you haven't build the cargo-maven2-archetypes project as well, as it contains the actual configuration of the plugins involved.
Looking into #1 some more it turns out that the problem is the install dir for the container being java.io.tmp for jonas, jboss and glassfish. It doesn't work on Mac OS. If I specify the installDir to some other folder, the build works for all containers.
We should really look into changing this behavior, as I think that the default settings should work on all platforms incl. Mac OS. I'll file a separate ticket for this (CARGO-895).
Committed revision 2683 for centralizing these comments and making them only once
For performance improvement, we can now point cargo.container.installation.directory to the core/samples/java/installs directory (where we already have downloaded the container)
The pointing of the installation directory OK.
Also, you were right, change of port works correctly. I was looking at the pom.xml and not the logs
One issue: why doesn't the maven-invoker-plugin output the invoked Maven instance's contents to the standard output? It would help us when seeing why things have failed
You can configure it to do so. But very often you configure the invoker plugin to log at debug level and you don't want all of that in the console.
If you want to know why it failed you just look in the build.log file. Like if a test fails with surefire, you check the log for that (it isn't printed to the console).
I don't totally agree with revision 2683. I think we need to address CARGO-895 to fix this, in my opinion, flaw in the design from a Maven perspective.
The good thing working with these archetypes is that we see what doesn't work well. I also see lots of log messages about things we should fix such as using deprecated configuration for the containers, using incorrect values for some container params, etc.
This also depends on CARGO-517 else people will have to modify things in order to just enter proxy server settings...
Tests fail randomly on the CI, most often with the following stack trace:

Currently I see the following in the webapp-single-module archetype:
This property is not defined in the archetype though. It works in the tests because we set it for the invoker-plugin executing the tests. BUT, I very much dislike our tests having an affect on the archetypes. The archetypes should be showing a best-practice/good example of a project using Cargo. When we tweak the project to fit out testing we don't accomplish this!
I agree, we should not be needing this. Removing the definition...
Now when CARGO-895 has been solved, can we switch on tests on all containers in the archetypes? Or are there still some issues with them on the Bamboo server?
If we want to switch them all, we have to set a large number of random ports for JBoss and GlassFish, and reduce the number of services on JOnAS -else many ports are already in use and we fail. The Java samples tests show this, we allocate tens of ports for these containers...
The whole point of this ticket is that we should test the archetypes. To do that, I think we should test all containers.
In this case, we would have to add all these ports in the archetype and the builder project:
- cargo.rmi.port
- cargo.tomcat.ajp.port
- cargo.glassfish.adminPort
- cargo.jboss.naming.port
- cargo.jboss.classloading.webservice.port
- cargo.jboss.jrmp.port
- cargo.jboss.jrmp.invoker.port
- cargo.jboss.invoker.pool.port
- cargo.jboss.remoting.transport.port
- cargo.jboss.ejb3.remoting.port
- cargo.jboss.transaction.recoveryManager.port
- cargo.jboss.transaction.statusManager.port
- cargo.jboss.remotedeploy.port
and in the JOnAS container set the services list to the same as in the Java samples
Perhaps ignore JBoss? Adding all this clutter to an archetype (which is supposed to be a simple example) is annoying for me.
What's the exact reason we need to do this - is it due to some ports already in use on the CI instance, containers shutdown not releasing ports, we having parallell builds (thus already occupying some ports), etc?
The third option: the CI is used by all Codehaus projects, therefore most ports are already used. And, JBoss requires tens of free ports to run (Tomcat, GlassFish and JOnAS require 2).
So, what do we do? Enable tests for some containers and ignore JBoss, hence adding a few more port definitions?
The basic requirement is that we must not change the archetypes just so that we can run our tests! The archetypes are there for our users, not for us.
However, the idea with this ticket was to check that our archetypes do in fact work. Hmm, tricky...
One idea could be to disable the tests on the CI server (where it will not work running all containers), but having them enabled when we run locally (releasing for example). That would help us detect any issues before doing a release at least. I guess that the embedded jetty profile for the archetypes could run on CI (as it is at the moment), which would give us some basic verification.
Do you know if we can enable the Maven invoker plugin's active profiles list from the invoking build? Also, do you know if we can enable a certain profile during release (or pre-release) phases?
Need to do some research to fully answer this.
What we can do is to run the integration tests in a separate profile that CI doesn't trigger. However, that would disable the archetype test on embedded Jetty as well.
OK, I think we have two options:
- When building on CI we disable the maven-invoker-plugin invocation through the skipInvocation param - no integrations tests at all
- When building on CI we only run the embedded jetty test (by having a different invokerPropertiesFile)
The first option is easier and cleaner. However, the second option adds a basic level of verification on the CI (which is the purpose of CI).
Today I would suggest the second option. However, if we make the invoker-plugin configuration grow it could possibly cause issues/confusion. But that's a future problem i think.
What we do is that when create a profile (id: bamboo-id or similar), which reconfigures the invoker-plugin (either the skipInvocation or the invokerPropertiesFile param). This profile is only triggered on CI, so when building locally (snapshot build, release build, or whatever) the invoker-plugin is doing a full execution.
The question is how we trigger this extra profile on the Bamboo instance. One way is to specifically specify the profile (for example "mvn clean install -Pbamboo-ci"). One other way is if there's a property (already set) on the CI instance that we can use to trigger the profile. Ali, what do you think?
Well; I still think starting JOnAS, JBoss, GlassFish, Tomcat and Jetty as part of a "normal" build is a bit of an overkill: we'll need more than 10 minutes at each test, so a "simple" CARGO build would take about half an hour. That's pretty long compared to the actual 5-6 minutes.
I would rather prefer a given profile activated on some build plans of the CI that would check archetypes on these containers (preferably, one by one). On "normal" compilation cycles, only checking with one container (embedded Jetty for simplicity) would probably be best.
Remember, the CI is here to do things that most people "would not have the time to do" -like testing on each container one by one.
Yes, but we cannot test this on CI as we can't/shouldn't adapt the archetypes just to fit CI. So, if we want to verify the archetypes we need to do this locally.
But maybe we'll just skip this? Testing on embedded Jetty provides some testing. However, merely a little.
I would tend to think that if the samples pass on all containers + the archetypes pass on any container (for example, Jetty); the archetypes should be OK on the other containers as well.
EXCEPT ... when we break things like ZipUrlInstaller or others, which are tested elsewhere.
Anders, do you know if we could set the configuration properties via Java system properties?
Any ideas on this one?
What I'm wondering if we could, for example, the same way as we define -Dcargo.maven.wait, define things like
-Dcargo.maven.configuration.cargo.jboss.classloading.webservice.port=xxx -Dcargo.maven.configuration.cargo.jboss.transaction.recoveryManager.port=yyy
... then we could set all ports randomly without touching the archetypes.
I'm thinking that we'll just leave it with a test on the embedded jetty container for now.
I really think that we is needed is a better overall test suite, and that could take care of all this. What we do here in the archetype projects should be more of some type of sanity check.

Reptile Ride
The guitar solo is a beautiful thing. As a child, it was the serpent that drew me to hard rock and heavy metal in the first place. In this age of jaded hearts, however, the solo has become so stock and predictable that when one manages to slither through the fence and hit home, it is merely rewarded with a smile and a monosyllabic remark. Sadly, there are few bands capable of resurrecting that youthful, nostalgic sense of discovery though their lead work, and even fewer that can get those little hairs on the back of your neck to stand at attention. With their third album, Reptile Ride, Amoral has joined these hallowed ranks, brimming with exuberance and armed to the teeth.
A terse blend of technical devastation and DT-schooled melodic death, Reptile Ride continues in the same vein as their sophomore outing, 2005's Decrowning, but is a tenfold improvement in every facet. That little record, while enjoyable, suffered from an affliction of similitude. It also carried the unfortunate burden placed on it by the first song, "Showdown", which friggin' annihilated the remainder of the album. Reptile Ride, thankfully, is filled with far more fun-filled speedballs and fireworks than could ever be expected from this crew, and is tailor made for unscrewing some vertebrae and torquing some skulls.
What sets this apart from the faceless glump of tech-death LPs is the boundless vibrancy that bubbles from these songs; while they ply their craft seriously, it's pretty damn obvious that these Finns are having the time of their lives. The slicing interplay between guitarists Silver Ots and Ben Varon is bubbling with molten metal zeal from opening note 'til close. Their freewheeling, riff-loaded machinegunnery shines brightest on the EVH-does-DM shit-grinner "Mute", especially when they get down to the shred at the three minute mark. An argument could be made for the jet-engine blowback of "Hang 'Em High" as well, which plays like a textbook on how to splice a nuclear powered rhythm guitar under a blindingly melodic solo. Hugging the road with every swerve, Reptile Ride cruises along with a breeziness that was missing from Decrowning, which was weighted down with earnestness. This album sees the band injected with a near-cockiness which not only bolsters their overall strength, but makes this an absolute fucking blast to listen to. Life is just bursting from each track, down to each tempo-change and each dynamic shift. Amoral have done exactly what a young metal band strives to do with their third album, in that they've grown exponentially not only from a songwriting standpoint, but have completely jelled as a unit. This Ride is nearly flawless.
Nearly. Vocalist Niko Kalliojärvi's vocal style, an even-flowing propulsory rasp, does little to enhance, and simply holds steady. To his credit, the man has a knack for picking fluid vocal lines, and whatever limitations he harbors are veiled by some quality gang vocals (of the harsh variety, mind you; this isn't The Art of Partying). In addition, the über-sexy production job slips his percussive roar down a notch in the mix, keeping this an axe-driven machine, as displayed in "D-Drop Bop". One of the coolest cuts, (despite sounding like it was lifted straight from Anata's Under A Stone With No Inscription) this burst of pedal-stomping adrenaline would be a microcosm for everything that is righteous about modern thrashing death metal…if the follow-up instrumental "Apocalyptic Sci-Fi Fun" hadn't snuck in through the back door and stolen the title for itself.
To bottom line this son-of-a-bitch, I haven't played this much bedroom air-guitar since that week I blasted "Go Into The Water" non-stop. And judging from some of these song titles, as well as the intentionally ridiculous cover art, it's a safe bet that Amoral had just as much fun building this tower of headbanging bliss as I had rocking out to it in my underwear. So plant your foot on your monitor/coffee table, close your eyes, and wash yourself in ripping leads like it's 1999 and this is Colony, only with way more riffs and way less Anders Fridén.
One of the year's most satisfying albums...and a swift, European kick in the ass.

The Agilent Mx3005P and Mx3000P QPCR Systems are the most flexible—and reliable—instruments available for gene expression analysis, microarray data validation, SNP genotyping, pathogen detection, DNA methylation analysis, and chromatin immuno-precipitation studies.
Highly reproducible results are the product of the Mx3005P's single light source, single detector precision optic scanning design, providing uniform excitation and detection, coupled with the trusted Peltier-based thermal system, which ensures uniform ramping and thermal accuracy.
Agilent's qPCR software, MxPro, provides users with an intuitive interface, quick experiment design, powerful data analysis and easy report generation. All of these features and more make qPCR with the Mx instrument an exciting and dependable user experience.
The well-equipped Mx3005P QPCR System's five-position user customizable filter wheel design allows you to choose which five filters are installed in your instrument from a list of eight filter sets spanning deep blue dyes to far red dyes.
Mx3005P qPCR System Features & Benefits:
- Eliminates optical variation by ensuring uniform excitation intensity and emission measurement from well-to-well, across the entire plate.
- Eliminates the need for well-to-well signal correction by calibration or reference dyes - Uniformity of well-to-well measurements from the single-scanning fiber optic head design reduces the need for additional signal correction and calibration steps, streamlining your assay.
- Allows accurate quantification of low to high-abundance targets - Use of a single photomultiplier tube (PMT) that provides linear detection over ten orders of magnitude ensures superior sensitivity and reproducibility.
- Increases flexibility - Four optical channels with user-selected filters that cover a broad range of excitation wavelengths, allowing use with most fluorescent dyes.

"The Mx is an extremely good value for money qPCR machine. The software is very intuitive, making setting up new protocols much easier than say the ABi machine. Furthermore, I can fit it on my bench; the footprint is about the same as a computer. Agilent have been great in helping me set up the machine and get it going, can't complain there at all." |

There are several options available to set up and analyze data, along with ease of exporting data into other formats, such as .csv. This is the only qPCR machine I have used, though, so I may be biased." |

Being a Christian is more than simply copying and pasting something in your signature or quoting Bible verses at the end of every post. It is about the fact that we are all guilty of offending the Holy God, but because He loves us, He sent Jesus to die and rise again in our place. Through Christ we are made new creatures able to do right and therefore please and enjoy our Heavenly Father once again. Our response: turn from our sin and trust in Jesus Christ alone for salvation

I've purchased the app as well as all the Dex packs. However, my Sinnoh Pokédex has halted at "Processing download." I've been trying to find something that'll help me. but I'm having no luck finding anything. I was told to just keep trying and it should work.
On a side note, I like it, and thinks it's worth the money. It's handy when you only have one console with 3D Pro, and it happens to be what you play your games on.
You enter the code into the search bar on the main page. You'll get a confirmation message, and the app will direct you to Meloetta's Aria Forme page. You can now access both the Aria and Pirouette formes from the list of Pokémon.
Also, as far as the app as a whole is concerned, it's not at all worth $26. I have a free knockoff that does the job just as well, and it's already a National Dex. Very, very disappointed in The Pokémon Company.

I don't know if it has been posted or not but this is the information from the UK XBOX World Magazine :
On Multiplayer:
-The Audio diary of when Diane McClintock is sitting in Kashmir Restaurant and there is an explosion is when the Rapture civil war is begun.
- That third secret multiplayer mode may or may not be a capture the flag (Capture the little sister) type of mode.
-Some walls during multiplayer may be breakable depending which weapon you have with enough kick to do so.
-When you pick up the Rosie upgrade, your health doesn't regenerate.(Thats probably something obvious)
- Quote from the magazine:"We're informed that additional DLC is a strong possibility to boost post-launch."
-Sawed-off variation of the shotgun.
-Confirmed: You can electrify Geyser Trap.
-You can put Geyser Trap on walls.
-Only 1 Rosie suit at a time during any match.
-When someone picks up the Rosie suit you will know due to the classic pissed off Rosie wail that rings out through the halls.
-You can hack vending machines to shock enemies when they try to get some EVE.
-Flying Security Bots will NOT be in multiplayer because of the added chaos that would lead to frustration and the game going from fun to aggravating.
-Winter Blast slows down instead of freezing.
-Electro-Bolt last one to two seconds but thats more than enough time to give your foe a good amount of damage.
-Multiplayer uses COD type challenges like Accumulate 10 winter blast kills or 5 Winter Blast and melee combo kills for a nice chunk of extra Adam.
-Also like COD, a message will pop-up when a challenge is completed.
On Singleplayer:
-Jordan Thomas Confirmed that Big Daddies and Splicers aren't the only people in rapture. Quote from the article: "Also roaming the city's halls are lost souls in need of rescue. You can bind people together via your helmet camera when they cant physically see each other, then rescue them and decide how you work with them."
-The last question reveals what people have been speculation about for awhile now, Quoted: We asked Jordan about the game's logo which, with barnacles and butterflies, hints at Rapture's rise to the surface. "People always read too much into everything" he chuckles. "That said it does NOT mean the butterfly was meaningless by any stretch."
-Other than the usual Harvest or Don't Harvest choices, other factors will count towards the type of ending you're headed to and close to the end you will get to see ahead at the type of person you are becoming.
-When you're fighting a big daddy and die, his health will regenerate.
-You can use Incinerate!3 to burn down objects in your way and open up hidden locations.
Not alot of OMG info but it's still info nevertheless.

Martini Madness - Live shoot w/ Neil Van Niekerk
Martini madness, in short, is a combination of two of our favorite things! Martinis & shooting with Neil Van Niekerk. Martini Madness will be a late afternoon/evening shoot hosted by Neil Van Niekerk. This shoot will involve him both instructing, shooting and giving you the opportunity to shoot as well! This is, essentially, a live shoot on steroids!
On top of all this, our very own Sugarland will be bringing out their famous gelato martini bar for refreshments.
This will be a cash bar and Sugarland has whipped up 4 specialty drinks specifically for the convention:
The Hot Flash (Ginger/lemon)
The Dark Room (Mocha/Kahlua)
The Action Shot (Pineapple/peach)
The Quick Change (Margarita Martini)
Look forward to seeing everyone there!
- Renee is our latest chapter leader heading up the Greensboro chapter with her Husband Jonathan. Renee & Jonathan spoke at the 2012 WPS convention and are thrilled to bring everything the WPS exemplifies to the triad area! Welcome Renee and Jonathan!!

Welcome to the WPS!
Please note each membership application is manually approved. This process should take no longer then 48 hours. This is a necessary step to insure the WPS admits only professional and aspiring professional photographers. For the time being, you will be able to view our public areas but not comment or start new topics. If your application is NOT approved (your ability to post has not been granted within 48 hours, please send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com and I will look into it immediately).
Please make sure to join our facebook group and facebook page as well so you are informed about all of our contests and meetings.
Once your application is approved, please follow the below steps! *You won't be able to change anything until you are approved....)
Edit your display name - Please insure your display name is set to your full name (i.e. John Smith) in the display name part of your profile? Our community is spread across the globe and it's difficult to have a meaningful conversation with Axl8r4321. You only get 1 change each year, so choose wisely.
Member Map - This puts a pin on your location, great when people travel to your area.
Gallery images - Each member can upload 10 images to a personal gallery so everyone can see your work.
Integrate FB account- This imports your FB profile photo and also lets you give status updates, likes, etc all from the WPS forums.
Profile Contact Info - When you enter your facebook, twitter, google+ or skype addresses, this places an icon underneath your topic profile picture with ways to contact you. Yes another way to help network yourself with others.
Follow the Calendar - This will give you notification of any changes/additions made to the calendar. Great for notifications about local meetings or online activities.
About your WPS membership
Full membership is granted to those with a majority of professional wedding/portrait related photography on their website. This is to keep high standards for our meetings and forum participation. The WPS is an incubator for ideas, sharing information, learning and growing for everyone involved so we definitely welcome your participation and hope to meet you in person at one of our meetings.
Student memberships are granted to those who are new to the portrait or wedding photography world and have little wedding or portrait work in their portfolio. Our definition of a pro wedding or portrait photographer is 50% or more of your website is wedding & portrait specific. As such, we certainly welcome you to participate and to attend the meetingsbut we do limit access to some forums as a means of controlling who has access to certain information. This is in no way a judgement of skills or potential. Our goal is to provide a provide a "safe" environment to learn and grow in without being subject to the, sometimes, straightforward and critical comments that come with being a professional photographer.
So who am i?
Your membership level was decided when a member of the WPS staff reviewed your website and judged it based on several criteria - mostly based on the amount of portrait and wedding specific work you have. As this is an automated message you can look for yourself. If you have access to any forumsthat end in - members, you have full membership. If you can only see the public forums, you are a aspiring member. Aspiring members can start topics and make replies, but only in the public forums. An aspiring member can, at any time, ask to be re-considered for full membership by emailing the admin team. Please make sure an include your forum name when doing so.
Get Involved
Please check the following locations for how to get the most from being a WPS member:
WPS blog
All of these locations contain meeting and general WPS announcements and are accessible to both aspiring and full members.
Local Meetings
If you are not close to any local chapters, and are interested in holding meetings in your area, please let us know! The community meetings bring so much talent together that we have found many, many opportunities to further professional wedding photography as a whole and our individual talents as well – so we highly encourage getting meetings going in your area.
All meetings are announce on our calendar.
Please let us know if you have any questions. You can always reach our staff via email!
All the best and welcome to the WPS!

Hi everyone,
My name is Mark Maya. I am a documentary style photographer who recently moved to Durham from Boone, NC after completing my Master's at Appalachian State University.

Hi from Youngsville, NC
Posted by dinamaria - Sep 16 2013 09:01 PM
Hi everyone. My name is Dina Maria and I am a budding photographer from Youngsville NC. I started my business in January and have spent most of the past 8+ months studying, volunteering my time to non-profits, and practicing. I created a business plan and my business plan was simple, well as simple as a business plan can be. It was to improve myself to ensure I provide quality to my clients. I still have a long way to go but have already noticed a huge difference in my work by, as I mentioned above, practicing, studying, and volunteering. But the one thing I have found most valuable was being critiqued by my peers. I have learned so much from my peers and appreciate their openness to share their knowledge. I am really looking forward to 2014 and making it the year I start building a client list. Cheers~

Hi there! We are Gus and Veronica Salazar, owners of Gus and Veronica Photography. We are originally from Caracas, Venezuela and we came to Cheraw, SC in 2005. We're so excited to be here and be part of this awesome community!
Why can't you give me it all for $2k and even throw in a engagement like other photographers???
Posted by Diane McKinney - Aug 20 2013 09:22 PM
I got an email something like this today... I thought for ONCE I answered it pretty well. I don't know how it was received on the other end but I know I am not shooting a wedding 7-8 hours all the negs included for $2k. I just thought I would share... Because every word of it is true...
I would LOVE to be able to do this for you and if you were getting married on a Friday or Sunday I could totally work something out. No, I am not able to do this... I have a studio and expenses I have to cover which are based on a budget of shooting x # of weddings at x $. Some of the newer photographers haven't learned that you have to replace most all of your gear after 5 years then the same goes for your computer equipment and all the other expenses that come up in years 2-3 and beyond. They usually go out of business within 3 years because they don't understand the economics that go into having a lasting and sustainable business. I want to be here for the long hall for my clients and watch them go from being excited newlyweds to new Mommies and Daddies and then some day to maybe shoot their babies' babies. : ) Thank you SO much for giving me an opportunity and I know you will find someone fabulous although I hate it is not me. But if anything changes I would LOVE to meet you.
Thanks again! And congrats again!! : )

AskMen.com has released their list of the 99 Most Desirable Women of 2009, and although Eva Mendes was #1, several women from TheWB.com made the list.
Veronica Mars star Kristen Bell made it into the top ten, with her #9 slot, right between Kate Beckinsale and Rihanna. (Who wouldn't want to be there? Zing! Suggestive joke!)
Firefly and Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles star Summer Glau came in at #36, One Tree Hill guest-star Maria Menounos was ranked #55, and Roswell star Katherine Heigl was listed at #81. Heigl was listed at #1 last year, so that's quite a drop. Maybe not enough AskMen.com voters are watching Grey's Anatomy this year.

Funtasticks Tuscon entices visitors of all ages with abundant play areas along with racing, riding, and sporty attractions. Guests can test their aim by precisely putting through one of two 18-hole miniature golf courses, sniping opponents in a high-tech laser-tag facility, or hitting softball or baseball homers in a batting cage that launches orbs between 40 and 70 mph from an accusatory foam pointer finger.
Electric bumper boats come equipped with water guns for squirt-attacks against other seafarers, and go-karts navigate a racetrack's lengthy stretches and curves. The video arcade's plentitude of games rewards players with tickets redeemable for prizes, and Kiddie Land sequesters a bouncy castle, rookie go-kart track, and mini roller coaster geared to younger attendees. Funtasticks Tucson accommodates organized group outings and birthday parties with an extensive selection of packages.
Staffed by experienced coaches and computers who've sworn allegiance to the three laws of golfing robotics, GolfTEC's motion sensors and high-speed cameras monitor swings and break down each individual's form on a high-definition video display to get results. Sensors chirp with approval whenever they detect the perfect stroke or an especially witty golfing joke. GolfTEC's certified personal coaches will point out flaws and strengths while providing golfers with tips on how to permanently improve their game from tee to green.
The sight of a medieval castle surrounded by tall cacti may seem anachronistic at first, but it's hard to question the image when one is trying to putt a mini golf ball into a grassy hole off the circulating paddles of a windmill. It's whimsical moments like this that make Golf N' Stuff's name feel understated. Beyond the two lush 18-hole mini golf courses that draw year-round visitors, the entertainment center boasts go-karts, bumper boats, and more than 100 arcade games. A mechanically rotated rock wall challenges climbers to simulations of El Capitan and Half Dome, and batting cages let both kids and adults perfect their swings before the upcoming zombie apocalypse. Visitors can refuel on hot dogs, soft-serve ice cream, and soda at the snack bar.
Family-friendly and fully loaded, Vantage Bowling Centers boast lane after lane of well-maintained surfaces, modern scoring, and bumpers primed and ready to boost any youngster's score and attitude. Bowlers can fuel bowling ball–lifting and expressive victory dances with a large cheese pizza. The alley snack bars also dish out other snacks alongside a variety of adult beverages such as draft beer and milkshakes made entirely of Wall Street Journal clippings. While select locations keep the action rolling as late as 1 a.m. on weekends, this Groupon is not valid for cyber-bowling nights.
On the Riptide slide, brave park goers grip small, yellow rafts as they descend down a nearly vertical 35-foot drop into a long alley of water. This thrilling ride is one of the Breaker Water Park's main attractions, joined by the twisting and turning Bonzai Pipeline—which propels bodies through a large jumble of pipes—and a massive wave pool filled with more than 1 million chlorinated gallons. The sprawling Breakers compound also has two food and refreshment stands and plenty of space for dining or relaxation. Sunbathers and those afflicted with wicked-witch syndrome can plant their beach towels and collect sunshine at one of many seating areas, and families with children too small for larger water slides can escort the tykes to Captain's Kidd's Surfari. A designated kids' area, the Surfari gives littler kids an oversized and waterlogged playground outfitted with wading pools, tamer slides, and elaborate sprinkler fountains.
The weekend before Cinco de Mayo, The Tucson Taco Festival pits 25 teams of taco craftsmen, ranging from amateurs to local restaurateurs, against each other in pursuit of a $5,000 prize as they feed thousands of attendees. Sporting Lucha Libre wrestling masks and working inside intricately decorated booths, the teams collectively produce 30,000 tacos, accompanied by sides such as salsa, guacamole, and more than 30 premium tequila brands. Meanwhile, bartenders rev their blenders in a margarita-making challenge, and visitors show off their ability to ingest spicy food without first ingesting an air conditioning unit during a hot-pepper eating contest. Live music from El Camino Royale and Shrimp Chaperone spurs bodies into motion, while youngsters can stop by the Kids Zone for festive face paint or a jaunt in the bouncy castle.

We stride quickly to the Old Town Market Square, not because we're in a hurry, but just to keep warm. Once at the Christmas market though, the colourful … [Read more...]

Priebus: Romney was vulnerable like a "duck on the pond"
The top Republican Party official on Saturday urged conservatives to unite behind his plan to revitalize the party and deliver electoral success in the upcoming midterm and presidential elections.
Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said the party must avoid the situation of 2012 GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney, where he was left sitting as a "duck on the pond."
Priebus advocated for the Growth and Opportunity Project he unveiled earlier this year after a review of the party's operations and 2012 campaign. He described it as a path forward that grassroots members of the party can support.
"It's not an establishment takeover," he said at the Faith and Freedom Coalition's Road to Majority conference in Washington. "We're trying to do what's right. I'd rather win together than lose together."
The plan would mean a "permanent ground operation" to register and motivate voters, he said, countering the legacy of Obama's campaign apparatus and other Democratic-aligned efforts.
Priebus focused much of his criticism of the Obama administration on Attorney General Eric Holder, citing the government collection of phone and internet records, the botched gun-running sting Fast and Furious and his handling of terrorism suspects.

Gallstones are pieces of stone-like material that form in the gallbladder. The gallbladder is located near the liver and stomach. The majority of gallstones are made up of cholesterol. The rest are made up of bilirubin. Bilirubin is a breakdown pigment of the blood product hemoglobin.
Biliary colic is the pain caused by a gallstone stuck in the bile duct (a tube that carries bile to the small intestine). Sometimes, a stone caught in the bile duct causes cholecystitis (inflammation of the gallbladder). Cholangitis is inflammation of the bile duct caused by a gallstone or a bacterial infection.

The gallbladder stores bile. This fluid is produced in the liver and used in the small intestine to digest fat. Bile contains cholesterol, water, bilirubin, and bile salts.
Gallstones can form under the following conditions:
These factors increase your chance of developing gallstones. Tell your doctor if you have any of these risk factors:
Many people have gallstones without symptoms, called "silent gallstones." In some cases, these are treated.
Gallstones may cause pain in the upper abdomen. This is sometimes called an attack because it begins suddenly, often after a fatty meal. The pain is severe and may last for 30 minutes or several hours.
Other symptoms include:
If you have the following symptoms, see your doctor right away:
The doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history and perform a physical exam.
Tests may include:
Talk to your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Options include:
Your doctor may give you medicine to dissolve small stones. You may need to take medicine for months or even years.
Another procedure that may be used to treat gallstones is called endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). ERCP uses a combination of endoscopy and x-rays to locate and remove gallstones before or during gallbladder surgery.
To reduce your chance of getting gallstones:

So it is not at all lightly that I name _Tea for the Tillerman_ as one of my favorite albums of all time, and a much better introduction to Cat Stevens than any of his "greatest hits" collections. He had two absolutely great albums; this is one of them. The other was _Teaser and the Firecat_, and _Mona Bone Jakon_ was darned close. If you have those three, you have most of the "very best of" Cat Stevens already; borrow _Buddha and the Chocolate Box_ from somebody and tape "Sun/C79" and "Oh, Very Young," and you'll have the rest.
(Not that his other stuff isn't _good_, but it's mostly not of the same quality -- though portions of _Catch Bull At Four_ come within inches of it. I don't have much patience with "fans" who tell us that the rest of us aren't "true" fans if we find "Foreigner Suite" to be much ado about nothing and don't especially care for _Izitso_. If we have to suspend our powers of discrimination and uncritically adore everything an artist emits, who wants to be a "true" fan of _anybody_? And what genuine artist would want such "fans"?)
I think the quality of _Teaser_ is a bit more evenly distributed than that of _Tea_. But _Tea_ seems to me to hit higher heights. For example, I can take or leave "Miles From Nowhere" -- but "Into White" is probably the most hauntingly gorgeous thing the man ever wrote.
Read more ›Cat Stevens' "Tea For The Tillerman" is truly a classic album, and they don't come any classier than this. Stevens was a talented musician, and was not afraid to make music that came from the heart - a quality many musicians nowadays lack (see Limp Bizkit). Stevens had the ability to write memorable tunes and pen intelligent, thought-provoking lyrics, which made him the top of his game in the early 70's, and has gained him successions of new fans year after year, even if he isn't Cat Stevens anymore (I believe he is now known as Yusuf Islam). "Tea For The Tillerman" is in my opinion, Stevens' finest album, and one of the most perfect albums ever recorded. Although most people are only familiar with the albums' hit singles ("Wild World", "Father And Son" and "Where Do The Children Play") - each one a classic in its own right, the other eight songs on the album are equally as great. The songs are not overly produced, and comprise largely of acoustic guitar, bass, keyboards and drums, with the odd string arrangement here and there (arranged by Del Newman). The album kicks off with "Where Do The Children Play?" and although it may strike the average listener as a nice, simple tune, the lyrics present a social commentary that is as relevant today as it was almost thirty years ago (in a world dominated by materialism, technology and want, is there any room for children to play and carry on with their simple untinctured lives?).

If it's this, and it is a good guess, I wonder if they'll bring back removed rewards like the plagued protodrake and titles like Hand of A'dal and the Undying, etc, for people who do the appropriate raids on level and on ilevel. I know it still won't be exactly the same, since game systems have changed since then, but it would be a pretty solid compromise, IMO.
That is not dead which can eternal lie.
And with strange aeons even death may die.
so basically you are taking opinion over what blizzard themselves have said?
starcraft and blizzard all stars will be their esport. not their new mmo.
whenever blizzard talks about esports they are always talking about starcraft and all stars because guess what are the two popular genres of esports? rts games and mobas.

I'm assuming the big unannounced feature will be the ability to scale your characters level/gear to whatever zone or raid or dungeon you are in allowing people to play with lower level friends. Something I personally don't care about and will get 0 use out of, but I'm sure a lot of people will like it.
I hope the "Big Unannounced Feature" is something like player housing or something everyone would want to do.
Just your opinion. The only reason I (and thousands, if not millions) of others play this game is for the raiding content. MoP has been the best expansion ever for raiding (my opinion). Actually, 2nd best. TBC is still the best to me (minus the disaster that was Hyjal).
WoW loses subs because it is old as hell. No game in the history of gaming has kept a playerbase as strong as WoW has for this many years. It is unreal how many people continue to give Blizzard money every month to play with so many other options available. I doubt we will ever see a Phenomenon like WoW ever again.
Beyond the near-impossibility of finding something everyone would be interested in, GC has already said on twitter that the new feature would excite some and be "meh" to others. So it sounds like it's expected to be niche, rather than universal. Which probably makes sense...something they thought might be more universally exciting, they'd probably save as a selling feature for the next expansion.
That is not dead which can eternal lie.
And with strange aeons even death may die.
Judging by how fast previous patches have been on the PTR, mostly on how fast 5.2 went up after 5.1, it should be about 3 weeks, perhaps 2 after 5.3 comes out.

So why doesn't WOW have this good marketing campaign? People will always rush to check out a new product and it remains to be seen whether AOW will keep hold of all of those players but it still does not change the fact that people are turning their backs on WOW in the millions.
I think it will be something to do with dead realms as that would be awesome for some and completely meh for me
i dont know, maybe you should ask netease who runs wow in china why they dont reach out to celebrities over there?
all i know is that age of wushu is endorsed by multiple chinese celebrities and jet li is currently the "face" of age of wushu and its main spokesperson and that chinese born celebrities have a huge sway over public opinion over there that combined with the fact that its free and wow isnt makes for an appealing game to chinese players.
also age of wushu isnt the only culprit, lol is becoming huge over there as well among the hardcore cafe players

Zagorsky pulls on his roots with latest studio effort
When I connect with Mark Zagorsky, he's just sent me a text to let me know I should phone him. So I do. When you've got your headphones on and leg up at work, Zagorsky's latest musical offering a contemplation on rural Alberta's cultural zeitgeist. Back to My Roots takes a listener out of the confines of the office and back to a simpler time and place where honesty and hard work ruled the workday. He admits the album title has a bit to do with marketing. It's not like his last studio effort was a foray into electronics with Daft Punk.

Bandits enjoy solid weekend in AJHL
Brooks Bandits picked up three of a possible four points in Alberta Junior Hockey League action this past weekend. The Bandits downed the visiting Calgary Mustangs 3-1 Friday night before dropping a 2-1 overtime decision to the Canmore Eagles. Calgary served notice they were not about to make the game easy when Riley McDougall scored on a harmless looking shot through the pads of Michael Fredrick 31 seconds into the game.

Blizzard batters Brooks
Southern Alberta was slammed with a blizzard so hard Monday that flights out of the province were cancelled. Blowing snow reduced visibility on roads and highways outside the Centennial City. A blizzard warning was put effect Monday morning for southern Alberta. The warning issued Monday covered all of central and southern Alberta's major communities, including Brooks, Red Deer, Airdrie, Lethbridge, Medicine Hat and Drumheller. Environment Canada officials reported the worst conditions were expected in the corridor from Red Deer south to Strathmore to Lethbridge, with northerly winds reaching 80 km/h with zero visibility. WestJet posted restrictions for people changing flights throughout Alberta Monday, in and out of Calgary, Edmonton and Grande Prairie.
