From the Editors of IT Business Insider
It's an unpleasant and unavoidable fact of life: IT organizations are almost always in problem-solving mode. And the best way to address unusual, urgent or one-time issues is to create temporary IT "solution teams."
The experts on these SWAT teams - the apt acronym for Special Weapons and Tactics - have the skills and tools to solve problems quickly and efficiently under intense time pressure. But it's important to keep in mind that you are bringing together people who may never have worked as a team before, and in larger organizations, they may not even have ever met.
There are right and wrong ways to build, train and maintain these crucial resources. Here are six ways that work.
Appoint a team leader. Forget everything you've heard about peer management. According to Katherine Spencer Lee, executive director of Robert Half Technology, in Menlo Park, Calif, the self-governing team is a myth. "You've got to have a team leader," she says, "and that person needs to have more than just technical skills." In particular, "good communications skills - both oral and written - are essential."
A leader is vital in cases where the team has been assembled from different departments. Someone acting as a coach or facilitator can help get the group to gel. This might be a role taken by the project manager; it might be formally assigned to someone with those specific skills or it might just be naturally assumed by a team member who has a talent for bringing people together. (article continues)
Balance individual accountability with a clear chain of command. The best teams don't necessarily duplicate skills, says Dean Meyer, chairman of NDMA Inc., a management-consulting firm based in Ridgefield, Conn. "Each member of the team needs to understand the specific contribution and/or deliverable that he or she is responsible for, and not meddle in other people's domains," he says.
Find - and involve - people from other disciplines. It's rare that a technical problem impacts only IT. "Once you make changes to an application, to the infrastructure or to the network, there are implications for anyone who uses those resources," says Jeff Gibson, vice president of consulting for The Table Group, a managing consulting firm based in Lafayette, Calif. "You need to have all the stakeholders represented on that team." In particular, members of the affected user community must have someone participating in order to come up with a solution they will be satisfied with.
Clarify the loyalties of team members. Because the team is temporary, by implication all members of it have other "real" jobs to do. To avoid cases of divided loyalties, members must know their responsibilities on the team and how that time commitment relates to their regular job. "Managers must be exceedingly clear about the priorities," stipulates Gibson. "If someone is expected to give 100 percent to the team, that has to be approved by his or her manager - and everyone must be very clear about how it will work on a practical basis from day to day." (article continues)
Establish firm boundaries. A temporary team is just that - temporary. The exact charter for its existence, including its timeframe, deliverables and deadline, must be carefully delineated in advance of the first meeting of the team. "If you don't provide an end date, or sufficiently detailed criteria about what constitutes the success of the project, then the so-called temporary team can easily turn into a standing committee," says Johanna Rothman, president of the Rothman Consulting Group, in Arlington, Mass. "If at all possible, make the goal something measurable; certainly make progress toward it something you can track."
Be prepared to disperse the team if necessary. Just because specific deliverables - and viable deadlines - have been established up front doesn't mean that the team must stay together to the bitter end. "Every healthy IT organization has a methodology for evaluating and killing troubled projects," says Raj Kapur, vice president of the Center for Project Management, in San Ramon, Calif. "You need to keep ascertaining that your resources are allocated where they can provide the most value. If things clearly aren't working out, you need to cut your losses and move on."
The bottom line: The best way to get a team acting like a team is for them to start working together.

The overhaul on the "compass Vector" engine was performed at F119 Heavy Maintenance Center at Tinker Air Force Base, Okla.
Pratt and Whitney managed engine and module repair, technical support and the overhaul processes, while Air Force personnel performed the overhaul and repair activities.
"We have a strong partnership on the F119 program, and we're optimizing every aspect of the depot maintenance process," said Brian Thompson, F119 program manager, 76th Propulsion Maintenance Group.
"We've taken all the necessary steps on this first lead-the-fleet engine induction and we have learned a lot from this engine.
"The benefit is that when the volume of engines increases, we will have prepared for every aspect of the maintenance of each engine, all the way down to the smallest bolts and piece parts."
Pratt and Whitney said the Heavy Maintenance Center has been supporting unscheduled maintenance for the F119 engine fleet since in 2004 but the P&W/Air Force team's workload increased in 2010 when early production F119 engines began to be inducted scheduled mid-interval inspections.

Feb. 21, 2013 It's not only in the US that actors are crossing over into politics. A recent publication in South European Society and Politicssuggests why comedian Beppe Grillo's Five Star Movement may win a certain number of seats in parliament at Italy's upcoming general elections.
A comedian with a rather particular background regarding his relationship with politics and television, Grillo is one of the figures most active in giving voice to the anti-political sentiment making a deep impact on the current orientation of Italian citizens.
Also interesting (and controversial) is his role within the MoVimento: he is the inspiration and mouthpiece of participation from the bottom up, but, at the same time, he also exercises a total control over the Movement's strategic choices.
This article tries to explain what the Five Star Movement is today: what organisational model it propounds, what challenges it poses for the system, as well as internal challenges. The general aim of this work is to shed light on the main characteristics of the Five Star Movement, and to see whether they can be read from a perspective of continuity -- or change.
Could this controversial comic end up being a major influencer in Italian politics?

Thanks to the efforts of many dedicated people working over a long period of time, Reed Library at the State University of New York College at Fredonia today houses the largest Stefan Zweig Archive in North America. The immense collection of materials related to the life, work and time of this great European author is a treasure house of the documents for all interested in the study of many facets of his intellectual and literary legacy.
The Inventory prepared by the Compiler, Franciska Safran, with the cooperation of colleagues and volunteers, is the indispensable tool to help guide potential users to specific documents in the collection which has been divided into three parts: first, the collection of Zweig; second, the extensive collection of published works by these authors; third, the amazing and delightful collection of miscellanea and memorabilia, including such things as family photos, postcards, and other personal documents.
The materials included in the collection, however, go beyond the limits of Zweig scholarship and contain much that would be of interest to scholars interested in a broad spectrum of writers, thinkers, and artists from many different countries, such as Ernst Bloch, Sergei Eisenstein, Andre Gide, Paul Claudel, Pierre Jean Jouve, James Joyce, Emile Ludwig, Roger Martin du Gard, Luigi Pirandello, Jules Romains, Andre Suares and Bruno Walter, to name a few of his famous correspondents.
Now housed in Archives and Special Collections, in Reed Library's new South wing, the Zweig Collection is open to all students, scholars, and other individuals interested in knowing more about the life, work and time of Stefan Zweig and Friderike Zweig, or in completing research projects that would benefit from this unique collection of Zweigiana.

Teaching Activity. Zinn Education Project. 2010. 100 pages.
Eight lessons for use with the documentary film about Daniel Ellsberg, the Pentagon Papers, the Vietnam War, and whistleblowing.
This 100-page teaching guide, prepared by the Zinn Education Project for middle school, high school, and college classrooms, enhances student understanding of the issues raised in the award winning film, The Most Dangerous Man in America: Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers.
The film and teaching guide are ideal resources for students trying to understand the news about WikiLeaks today. Through the story of Daniel Ellsberg, students can explore the type of information revealed by whistleblowers, the risks and motivations of whistleblowers, and the tactics used to silence whisteblowers. As Daniel Ellsberg said: "EVERY attack now made on WikiLeaks and Julian Assange was made against me and the release of the Pentagon Papers at the time."
Not only does The Most Dangerous Man in America Teaching Guide offer a "people's history" approach to learning about whistleblowing and the U.S. war in Vietnam, it also engages students in thinking deeply about their own responsibility as truth-tellers and peacemakers. In the spirit of Howard Zinn, this teaching guide explodes historical myths and focuses on the efforts of people — like Daniel Ellsberg — who worked to end war.
The teaching guide offers an introduction, resource guide, and eight lessons for U.S. history, government, and language arts classrooms. The guide uses a variety of teaching strategies, including role play, critical reading, discussion, mock trial, small group imaginative writing, and personal narrative.
Lessons One through Four are for use prior to showing the film.
While it would be ideal to use all the lessons, each lesson is a stand-alone activity.
The guide was developed by the Zinn Education Project in collaboration with The Most Dangerous Man in America filmmakers Judith Ehrlich and Rick Goldsmith. Written and edited by Bill Bigelow, Sylvia McGauley, Tom McKenna, Hyung Nam, and Julie Treick O'Neill. Funding for the guide provided by the Open Society Foundations.
More information about the film, including how to order for home viewing, high schools, and universities.
Many more resources are listed in the free downloadable teaching guide.
I brought this film and teaching guide up to a class of soon to be social studies teachers and they didn't know what the Pentagon Papers were, nor who Daniel Ellsberg is — we have our work cut out for us!
Response shared by Elizabeth Kenyon — October 27, 2010 @ 6:37 am
As a peace activist, since the 60s, and now a peace advocate and educator, I have witnessed much of modern history first hand. I have also hungered for the facts, which so often are not forthcoming. The Pentagon Papers was the work of one of histories foremost whistle blowers. Daniel Ellsberg helped bring about the end of the Viet Nam insurgency. His courage opened up a new reality for many, that what we are told by the government, may or may not resemble the truth.
Historically, it is never too late for the truth to come out. If we have any chance of not repeating history, it will be because of what we have learned from history!
There were no protective agencies at the time Daniel Ellsberg blew the whistle. We can learn from him not only the truth, but the courage of one man, to stand up and do the right thing.
Response shared by Kerry, Portland, Oregon — July 20, 2011 @ 10:40 pm
I gave several excerpts from the Most Dangerous Man curriculum to one of my students for her National History Day project. She was interested generally in the Vietnam War, and after talking with me about this awesome topic I'd read about lately (looking at this curriculum on the Zinn Project website), she decided to research Daniel Ellsberg's story for History Day. She found the curriculum to be an invaluable source, a great starting point for her research.

ZSL to hold 180th anniversary gala for gorillas
Thursday 14 September 2006
An exclusive black tie gala to raise funds for gorilla conservation is being held by the Zoological Society of London to celebrate the society's 180th anniversary.
More than 200 guests including HRH Prince Edward, the Earl of Wessex, will attend the African-themed event on Thursday September 21st 2006, which also aims to raise awareness of the plight gorillas in the wild. It comes six months before the opening of London Zoo's £5.3m Gorilla Kingdom exhibit – the most ambitious project undertaken at the zoo for 40 years.
The Zoological Society of London celebrates 180 years since it was founded by Sir Stamford Raffles in 1826 as a learned zoological and scientific society. London Zoo opened two years later as the world's first scientific zoo before opening to the public in 1847.
Hosted by TV vet Steve Leonard (star of nine BBC veterinary series including Vets in Practice) the rainforest-themed gala dinner will be followed by an auction allowing guests to bid for priceless experiences including behind-the-scenes zoo tours and the chance to name a zoo baby.
Guests arriving for the gala will first go Into Africa for a unique champagne reception that will include the chance to have close encounters with some of our animals.
Notes to editors
Photographers are welcome to attend the champagne reception at 6.30pm to photograph guests getting up close and personal with giraffes and okapi. HRH Prince Edward will not be present at the drinks reception.
Photographers should contact press officer Emma Kenly on 020 749 6280 or email firstname.lastname@example.com if they wish to attend.
It is the first time in many years that London Zoo has opened its gates for an exclusive black-tie evening.
Gorilla Kingdom – opening soon
London Zoo's most ambitious project ever, Gorilla Kingdom, will open Easter 2007, bringing the forests of Central Africa to the urban jungle.
The £5.3million 6,000m2 development will provide an awesome natural habitat for our gorillas and give visitors the chance to get closer to these incredible animals.
For more information about Gorilla Kingdom contact Emma Kenly on 020 7449 6280

Yes I laughed when I saw the pictures of the first series, the cast looked so young... oh well that's becasue they were young
I watched the first 2 series faithfully, followed every single episode and was totally into the story. The third installation bothered me alot. Cos I think its a pathetic attempt by Mediacorp to chalk up ratings by banking in on the success of the first 2. The 3rd series had a bad story, bad acting, bad cast and too many (lousy) computer effects.
And yes, i hated the son too, he was irritating, annoying, stupid, lazy and boring. I hated both version of the son. Ugh. Eh, i did not quite make it through the 3rd series, just watch snippets of it when i channel surf.

Gas leak caused Fillmore Street fire
- Blog Post by: Jane Friedmann
- July 23, 2012 - 3:39 PM
By Jane Friedmann and Masako Hirsch, staff writers
A three-alarm fire in Northeast Minneapolis that sent five firefighters and a resident to the hospital Sunday afternoon was caused by a gas leak, fire department officials said.
Fire crews responded to reports of an explosion and a fire at 2321 Fillmore St. NE yesterday at around 3 p.m., according to Deputy Chief Perry Ebner. He said Monday that it was caused by a gas leak in the furnace area in the basement of the house.
Medics evaluated one resident for possible burns and took him to a local hospital. He remained there Monday afternoon, Ebner said.
Friedmann, a reporter who lives almost a half mile away from the scene, observed the fire's far-flung effects.
Friedmann was blissfully assembling a jigsaw puzzle when a smoky smell invaded her concentration and allowed her brain to inform her that sirens had been wailing continuously for quite some time. Smoke was billowing over the houses across the street and clouding the front yard.
When she took to her bike and found the fire she was surprised to see that it was a good five blocks away, and downhill at that. By the time she arrived flames had been tamped down and the air-particulate meter had maxed out.
In this picture, onlookers standing across the street from the fire encountered near-zero visibility at times. Temperatures hovered near 90 degrees.
Photo by Jane Friedmann.
Firefighters worked in shifts because of the heat. Here they prepared to take a hose into the house. Minutes later water sprayed forcefully out of a second-floor window.
Five firefighters who were hospitalized for heat stroke have since been released, Ebner said.
Photo by Jane Friedmann.
When crews arrived Sunday, they found fire in the basement, first and second floors of the house. The blast from the leak also pushed out a section of the exterior wall in the back of the house.
Aubrey McDowell, who lives two houses away, snapped this picture from her second floor window while firefighters in the backyard assessed the situation. The house in the foreground next to the fire-damaged house is posted vacant.

A little surprised, the young man looks at him and says, "I make $400 a week. Why?"
"Wait right here," the CEO says.
He walks back to his office, comes back in two minutes and hands the young bloke $1600 in cash.
"Here's four weeks' pay," the CEO says. "Now get out and don't come back."
By now the factory floor is silent and all eyes are on the boss. Feeling pretty good about himself, the CEO looks around the room and asks, "Does anyone want to tell me what that young slacker did here?"
From across the room, someone finally speaks up. "He's the pizza delivery guy."

At 6' 2" I've never felt that lack of standing headroom was a serious disadvantage, and I lived on some of those boats - most of the time you sit or lie down. Perhaps I'm lazy, but why stand up when you can sit (or better still lie) down? Of course, the boat does have to be designed with low headroom in mind for it to work well. Also, a boat with less than standing headroom, four berths and four people on board is a very different thing to the same boat with two people on board. And I don't think max headroom is worth pursuing on boats of this size - 5'6" isn't much more useful than 5'3" IMO.
One thing's for sure (IMO), the slight inconvenience you'll endure by not being able to stand up to put your trousers on is more than made up for by the advantages of a smaller boat.

Royal Cornwall Hospital probes 'disgusting' toilet
Toilets at the at the Royal Cornwall Hospital were in an "absolutely disgusting" state, according to a patient.
Fran Nolan, 66, had gone to the hospital near Truro for an operation when she went into the ladies' toilets.
But she found them so disgusting she made an official complaint.
Managers said cleaners "take a pride in their work and are disappointed the area was not up to our usual high standard at the time of this visit".
Mrs Nolan, from St Erth, was at the hospital at about 0730 BST on 21 June for her operation when she went to the toilets in the main reception.
'Toilet pans soiled'She said: "I was shocked. The bin holding the paper towels had a pile about 2ft above the bin with toilet paper all over the floor in both cubicles.
"Both of the toilet pans were soiled.
"It was absolutely disgusting. Considering I was going into surgery, it didn't fill me with a lot of confidence."
Her husband took a photo and she complained to the Patient Advice and Liaison Service.
She said: "Even at Tescos they clean the toilets every two hours. This must have been left there overnight."
A hospital spokesman said: "The toilets near the outpatients department are in the busiest part of the hospital and are cleaned at regular intervals throughout the day from 7 am until 7pm.
"The state of facilities can change suddenly between cleaning schedules and we do encourage patients and visitors to let us know of any problems.
"Our cleaning services team are available for rapid response to any problem and we will look into the reason why this did not happen on this occasion."

All we are saying is Give Romney a Chance
Before John Lennon was murdered he sang, "Give Peace a Chance." In the song he praises a bunch of liberal freaks—Timmy Leary, Alan Ginsberg, etc. Unlike Lennon, Obama is an activist who is giving class warfare a chance. He has also exacerbated a civil war between the Republicans and the Democrats. I think we've had enough of Obama's divisiveness. It's time we gave Romney a chance. We have nothing to lose except Obama's ingrained habit of losing. He is a well-tailored loser. All we are saying is give Romney a Chance.
As long as he doesn't pick Rubio for VP...

Server Space
Server Space is self explanatory. It is a space on the server that is provided by hosting companies like Hosting Raja. Server spaces are leased out to clients so that they can use the same to host their websites. When compared to the cost of developing a website, the cost of server space is relatively less. Some sites have even started charging their clients based on the traffic that they incur. This is because server space is much cheaper than monitoring a website that is attracting a lot of traffic.
Server Space requirements vary depending of the client's business. If you are looking to put up a single page website with some images and content which talks about your business, all you need is Single Page hosting which requires very little server space. On the other hand if you are looking to host a complex website which stores information of the people visiting it then the amount of server space required increases drastically. If you want to run web applications then again the server space requirements go up.
Before you approach a Hosting company like Hosting Raja, make sure you know exactly the amount of server space that you need for your website. You can also take a look at our plans to get a fair understanding of how the server space is allocated to different plans.

More about my album "Clear & Velvet"
"Clear & Velvet" came about because of my awakening sense of spirituality in life around the turn of the decade in the late '70's and early '80's. Many of the terms and concepts expressed in the lyrics come from my study of the teachings of Eckankar, which was the first real organized religion that I had found appealing to me. Being a musican, I related quickly to the ECK concept of "Light & Sound." I had heard other paths talk about "the Light," but this was the first religion that had given due consideration to "the Sound" as an integral and creative force of life.
Of all my albums, this one contained the most input from other creative artists. Much of the basic recording itself was done by fellow students there in Red Hook, and I must especially acknowledge the great addition of my friend John Nazarenko's bass playing on many of the cuts. It was an enjoyable experience (though sometimes challenging!) to work with others on my own music, being so used to my "one man show" method. I discovered the joy of letting go and letting others contribute to my music in the way that the music inspired them. Also, kudos to my good friend Stan Burgess, who created the artwork and did the layout for the album. He truly captured the feeling of the music with his delicate drawings - thanks Stan!
Many people have asked me what the title of the last song on the album, the instrumental "F.I.L.B," refers to. At the time, I was listening to a lot of Brian Eno's ambient music and that style definitely influenced this piece. "F.I.L.B." stands for "Frozen In Loving Beauty," which, when I think about it now, doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but it sure seemed to then!
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the journey into "Clear & Velvet" land. It still holds up for me over all these years, and is probably the most conceptually-related album that I have made.

Unfinished business ... Ian Thorpe. Photo: Getty Images
AUSTRALIAN head coach Leigh Nugent believes people should forget thinking about instant fairytales when it comes to Ian Thorpe's return.
After his first freestyle race in almost six years yesterday, Thorpe's performance was instantly deemed a disaster to the public with some reports declaring him to have ''failed'', ''flopped'', ''crashed out'' and even his Olympic hopes were now ''in disarray''. But the death of his comeback has been grossly exaggerated.
On just the black and white statistics, it's understandable how disastrous it may look. His time of 50.21 seconds was good enough for only 15th in the 100 metres freestyle. The last time he swam the event, in Berlin in 2003, he went 47.82.
At the Australian short course titles in July, James Magnussen won the event in 46.98. Thorpe's time in Beijing would have ranked 32nd at those national championships, and in Singapore on the weekend, 17-year-old Queenslander Cameron McEvoy won the same race in 47.33. Those are the stats and they clearly say he has a long way to go. But Thorpe and Nugent knew that before yesterday's race and say these early competitive swims are purely preparation and planning for the Olympic trials in March.
''People can make their own judgment I guess, but this is the guy's first [freestyle] race for six years. If you had a footballer come back after six years what would we expect of them? I think that's how we've go to look at it,'' Nugent said.
''I think Ian did a pretty good job today. Just in my own mind - and I didn't express this to him - if he swam under 50, it would be a pretty fair swim and he went 50.2, so he wasn't far away from it. I think it's not about today, it's about March or July [the Olympics] next year. A lot can change between now and then. As for myself, I'm not really reading anything into it.
''I know people do expect miracles. Everyone is looking for a fairytale I suppose but fairytales are written by authors, not made by sporting people, even if we like to write them up as fairytales if it ends in a great result … but really they are not fairytales. In the world of sport, it's about preparation and planning and performance and this is part of the preparation and part of the plan and right now, as we have said all along, the performance isn't so important.''
Having swum the 100m individual medley and the 100m butterfly in Singapore, Thorpe was expected to only do those two events in Beijing, then possibly add the freestyle for the first time next weekend at the World Cup event in Tokyo.
But Nugent said he thought it would be a good time with less attention to perhaps try it out in China and he proposed the idea to Thorpe on Monday morning at training. Thorpe agreed, but was told to see how he felt at that evening's training session. If he felt OK, they would nominate for the 100m freestyle, if not, they would wait until Japan.
''The first 50m was good, the second 50m, OK,'' said Thorpe, who led at the halfway mark. ''The time was OK. I wish I had went a bit faster as there is a psychological barrier around breaking 50s.
''I realise what I have to work on and it's not around training, it's around racing. But I have noticed glimmers of possibility in what I can do. They usually get taken way with lactate, but they are good to feel.''
Nugent said he and Thorpe discussed the swim after the race. Nugent described the 29-year-old as ''not disappointed, and he wasn't elated''. He said they spoke about what they need to work on for next time ''and it was a bit of everything, as this is the beginning''.
As for Nugent being disappointed, he said: ''No not all. I'm happy he's here racing It's a pretty simple recipe for us here, it's about getting in and starting, and in a way it's like training publicly.''
Thorpe had the night off last night, as he narrowly missed qualifying for the 100m individual medley final, finishing in ninth place overall, but his 56.70, was slightly faster than the 56.74 he went in the heats of the event in Singapore, but slower than the 56.33 he swam to finish seventh in the final.

Paperback, 144 pages
Matthew Sadler is one of the UK's strongest ever players. He became a grandmaster at 19, won the British Championship twice and, amongst other amazing achievements, made a gold medal winning score of 10.5/13 on board four for England in the 1996 chess Olympiad.
In 2000 Matthew quit full-time chess. However, he re-emerged ten years later in 2010 to play a rapidplay tournament in Wageningen, Holland which he promptly won with 7/7. In 2011 he played in strong international events at Barcelona and Oslo and won them with the Fischer-like scores of 8.5/10 and 8/9 respectively. After a decade away from the game, these results are simply astounding.
Matthew's extraordinary ability at chess stems not simply from natural talent but is based on a brilliant aptitude for preparing the game. He understands exactly what needs to be studied and how to go about it. In this book he recounts how he organised the preparation for his 'comeback' and from his results the success of this method is self-evident. In this book Matthew shares his secrets and reveals how to:
As well as being an exceptional player, Matthew is also a fine writer who conveys his ideas with ease. He has previously written four books for Everyman with his book on the Queen's Gambit Declined winning the British Chess Federation Book of the Year award in 2000. Matthew currently lives and works in Holland.

base2 also provides support for the W3C Selectors API, which has recently been implemented in Internet Explorer 8, Firefox 3.1, Safari 3, and Opera 10. base2 uses a native implementation when one is present, which drastically increases efficiency and performance. When a native implementation is not available, base2 falls back on its own Selector API implementation, which is a tad slower, but still plenty fast.

I've known Emma since she was just a baby and now here she is a senior in high school. Time does fly. Emma is an incredibly creative and sweet girl.

Dominick and Jen's Canton Wedding
Dominick & Jen had a fantastic wedding day. The weather was warm and full of sunshine. They had a beautiful ceremony at St. Joseph's in Canton. We were lucky enough to have a few hours until the reception to hang out with these two and their party, giving us plenty of time to get great photos around town. Their reception was held at The Metropolitan Center and can be summed up with 2 words … DANCE PARTY! The dance floor was NEVER empty! If you haven't thought of The Metropolitan for your wedding venue – you should! Their amazing rooftop patio is perfect! This lovely couple is off to Italy for their honeymoon! I know, lucky, right?! Enjoy a few photos from their day …
Chad and Brittanie
As soon as I heard That Chad and Brittanie wanted photos that were different form the norm I knew it was a good sign. Chad mentioned dramatic lighting and referenced James Dean photos that he liked. Again I was stoked! Their wedding is in September so we did a mini engagement session for their save the dates. 11am isn't the perfect time of day for dramatic skies or shooting in the open in general but I had a few tricks up my sleeve and we pulled it off. Now I can't wait for the full engagement session and wedding!
Canton Food Tours
We had a little shoot today for Barbara Abbott of Canton Food Tours LLC. Canton Food Tours will present small group 3-hour guided walking tours of downtown Canton, May through November.

This is Jeremy and Ashley. They met through a mutual friend running at Walsh University. She is a High School teacher and he owns a timing and event management business in Washington DC. Race DC timing. This was just a small session because we are road tripping to D.C. in the spring for a full on engagement session. They were naturals in front of the camera and we are super excited about shooting their North Canton wedding next year.

In the past, ordering new checks meant selecting one of a few different designs from your bank. Thanks to the increasing popularity of online shopping, you can now buy designer checks, often for less money than you would pay for checks from your bank. One of the perks of shopping for checks online is the ability to compare designer check prices to find the best deals.
When you shop online for checks, you have access to a wide variety of different designs. Designer checks allow you to express your personality. You can show off your love of nature with scenic favorites featuring beautiful flowers, beach scenes, and even European castles. If you're an animal lover, you can choose checks featuring everything from dogs to dogs playing poker.
Many people select designer checks featuring their favorite hobbies and special interests. If you're a sports fan, you can find designer checks featuring your favorite professional teams. If you're into classic cars, you'll love the Corvette designer checks, featuring licensed pictures of eight different models of this classic American car.
When it comes to choosing designer checks, many people select images of their favorite characters from children's literature and cartoons. The Winnie the Pooh and Curious George checks are always in style. Checks featuring Disney characters such as Mickey Mouse, Bambi, and Cinderella are timeless favorites as well. When ordering personal checks, it's important to work with a company that provides you with a money-back guarantee on printed information.
We found the best Designer Checks at Citibank where you can get free checking and no-hassle banking.
