That definitely sums up my feelings by the end of Will's session. Will was having a bit of an off day the morning of his session. We weren't sure if it was the fact that he was teething, or we had messed up his nap or if he really just wanted to be on his own doing his own thing. One thing was for sure, we were not interesting to him!
He spent a good part of the session looking around the room, checking everything out, rubbing his hand across the floor feeling the different textures and trying to stick his hand or his outfit in his mouth. Basically anything and everything except interacting with me, his Mommy or his Daddy.
But that never stops us from trying! With lots of work, trial and error, a milk snack, some playtime and just some luck, we were able to figure out what made Will feel the most comfortable and then we ran with it…getting smiles and the now expected, patented, funny faced, Will!
Back Together
This past year has been a tough one for Lily & Ava's family. Their Daddy had to look elsewhere for work when the local jobs dried up, and elsewhere turned out to be over seas. Since January, Daddy has been in Afghanistan working to make a better life for his ladies back here at home. He's been able to come home twice for two week periods…and one of those times I was blessed by his presence!
There were smiles all around from all four of them! Even the pups were happy to listen and "obey" Daddy. Little Miss Rizzo, couldn't take her eyes off of him! I actually think this was the easiest session to get Daddy to smile at. He'll usually flash me a few smiles, but I can see he's always thinking, when is this going to be over? Not this time, he was all smiles and even flashed a few at that beautiful lady of his!
Hard Work
The morning of his session, Hudson would have rather been sleeping than modeling! Which meant Mommy, Daddy, his Aunt and I had to work really hard to be entertaining and interesting! Mommy and Daddy bounced and jumped, threw him in the air, danced and spun…all in all they both got in a good morning workout!
Of course, Daddy's tie, that we looped around his neck, was much more interesting then any of us. Frequently, Hudson would pull on it so hard, and at just the right angles, that he looked like he was trying to choke himself with it!
Through it all, Hudson blessed us with an array of expressions, from smiles to lip biting, to tongues, to showing off his two teeth! He definitely kept us moving and laughing!
Keeping Up
Mila has three older siblings that she has to keep up with, so when Mommy put her down, and the first thing she did was zoom past me, I was not at all surprised. Or, when Mommy put her on my bench and she turned around and proceeded to stand on it, I was again not surprised.
My favorite part was when we put the birthday cake in front of her. The first thing she did was grab it and demolish it without eating a bite. I thought to myself, "Hmmm…Mila's got two older brothers who probably like to be destructive…I wonder where she learned that from?!?"
Despite the craziness, Mila also blessed us with smiles, smirks and fun expressions. Again, I'm sure she has mastered these adorable expressions to make sure the attention is on her and not on her awesome older siblings!
Funny Faces
One of my favorite ways to end a session is to have the kids make faces, from sad to happy to laughing to silly. It's always fun to see what they come up with.
Landon had entertained me during his entire session with an array of faces, from squinty eyes to open mouth grins to crazy tongues. I wasn't sure how many more unique expressions he would be able to come up with. But, when he flashed me his sad face and then his mean face and then his happy face, I just started laughing and could not stop! It was the perfect end to a fun and silly session!
Getting Older
We are no more than half way through my eleventh year of business, and as the business gets older, so do my returning kiddos. There are definitely some positives and some negatives to my kiddos getting older.
The negatives: Older kiddos means older Brandi! Older means forced, stiff smiles start to emerge. It also means I can't just play peek-a-boo to entertain them. I don't get to see the silly kids just being kids faces as much. They're growing up (too fast)!
The positives: They follow directions (sometimes!). We can actually have conversations…talk about things they like, things they don't like, their hopes and their dreams. No tears or tantrums (usually!). They're growing and changing and become little people!
Carter is one of those kiddos! The first time I photographed him he was two years old…now he's almost seven! This was the first session where he and I actually conversations and talked about things, as opposed to just saying words like poopie and boogers! Although I had to work harder to get real smiles out of him, it was fun and entertaining…he's turning into a little person right before my very eyes!
A Smile A Day
Cody is officially my final senior for the year…not the last 2013 senior…just the last one that I will be photographing in 2012. At the beginning of the day, it looked like were going to be rained out, but after a couple of hours of falling rain, the skies cleared and were replaced by blue skies and high winds.
Although, the wind was quite gusty at times, we lucked out with pretty good weather. Nice temperatures and sunny skies…the perfect way to end the 2012 outdoor season.
Top it off with tons of laughs and smiles from Cody, and it was a fun, successful session.
Cody is a smiler! He started his session off with some serious, closed mouth expressions, but once I got him talking, he was all smiles. The longer the session went, the more freely the smiles came. Most of the time, they were caused by my bad jokes or my giving him a hard time…but he was a great sport and went with the flow every time!
Siblings Forever
The first time I met Xander and Faith, Xander was 7 Months old and Faith was 7 Years old. It is so much fun to have them come back to me every year for annual sessions. The changes over the years have just been amazing!
There's the obvious changes of size, growth of hair and overall maturing of features, but there's the other changes as well…from developing personalities, to maturity and ability to follow directions.
But the biggest one of all has to be watching the growth of their relationship. While neither of them will be the first to admit that they love their sibling, the love is definitely there. Xander has the uncanny ability to make Faith laugh…whether she wants to or not. Faith is almost a second mother to Xander, and not just in the nagging, controlling way, but with a sweet and caring eye.
At the end of the day, I know that they will always have each other's back…and each other's love!
Chills, Thrills & Grills
This was definitely the coldest Step Up for Down Syndrome Walk we have participated in! It was quite entertaining, walking through all the team tents and seeing the variety of portable heaters on display! I should have checked out each heater, to determine which one worked the best. If the weather is forecasted to be this cold next year, we will definitely be supplying a heater! I was bundled up, but by the end I had lost feeling in my toes, fingers and nose!
We had a small team of walkers this year, but our donators were very generous and we raised $1,290! Thank you to everyone who donated!!
A huge thank you to all our walkers! I know standing on concrete, in 40 degree weather early in the morning, is not exactly what everyone signed up for, but you were all great sports, and I think we had a pretty fun time, despite the chills!
We set up our tent and did some mingling, visiting clients and chatting with other teams. We sampled the Kettle Corn, ate some Krispy Kreme donuts and drank chocolate milk, had fried Twinkies, grilled some delicious Turkey Burgers, ate some healthy veggies and home grown pears, and topped it off with Otis Spunkmeyer cookies. We unbundled for a team photo (yes, everyone was thrilled with me for that great idea!) and then walked off all those calories in a very fast paced, one mile walk around Arrowhead Stadium! (Everyone walks a lot faster when they're cold and have no feeling in their feet!)
(Yes, I did a bad photographer thing…we were staring into the sun! There were just SO many people in attendance…(AWESOME)…that we didn't have any options if we wanted our sign in the photo. We've had the sign every year, so staring into the sun it was!)

I have a Filemaker solution which has a series of pages with radio buttons for data entry. The radio buttons are not showing up on the android solution (ver 5.1.1). Is there some setting I should have in Filemaker?
A second issue is that on some pages the radio buttons do show up but selecting a choice seems to do nothing other than what I think is a 'selection circle' over the radio button choice but it never fills in.
radio buttons not showing up
This is the place to discuss all things relating to using LiveCode For FM, the LiveCode interface for FileMaker.

Alumni interview
Your name, nationality, country of work (post), institution, position, course taken at Training for International Diplomats:
- My name is Eshraq Abdullah Hammad.
- I am from Yemen.
- Working at the Permanent Mission of the Republic of Yemen to the Arab League in Cairo from 2010 - 2014.
- Course attended: Executive Seminar for Diplomats from the Middle East and North Africa 2007 (ISL 6)
Can you tell us a bit about your career path and your motivation to follow this profession?
- I joined the MOFA in 2004 after successfully passing the selection procedure to become a diplomat.
- At the beginning I worked at the Department of Media for two years, after which I was moved to the minister cabinet.
- After that I have been posted to the Permanent Yemeni Mission to the Arab League in Cairo from 2010-2014.
How much did you plan your current tasks to be as they are today and how much did you leave to chance?
- In answer to this I must say that I was enthusiastic to be a diplomat. However, I faced big challenges as a Yemeni lady, coming not only from a conservative familybut from a conservative society as well.
- I started my duties as a diplomat and tried to get some experience. In order to achieve the goals I have, I plan to continue this path and get a master degree and become an ambassador in the future.
When it comes to influencing the international agenda or shaping public policies in your country, what main challenges do you face in your daily life as a professional?
- Here I think the biggest challenge I face during daily life is when I have to deal with those who do not believe in a woman as a qualified person.
Tell us about a pleasant work memory you have.
- Well, I do remember something special. When I was told that I had been chosen from seven candidates who were higher ranking than me, to participate in a seminar in Germany, it came as a big surprise to me.
If you hadn't followed this career, what other profession could you see yourself in and why?
- I really do like my job and will never give up inspite of the big challenges in my society.
How do you think our alumni network could serve your purposes better?
- I like your ideas and support building the alumni network. I hope it will be successful in actively connectingdiplomats around the world to share experience and culture, exchange information and so on.I believe it will be great to have an exchange of dialogue of different societies. From my point of view this is very important.
How would you be willing to participate in our network?
It's my pleasure to participate in your network, I don't have a special suggestion, so just let me know how I can contribute. Basically I'll focus on Yemen.

The Threat Of CO Toxic Fumes In Your Residence
A lot of people are not familiar with the dangers of carbon monoxide because this toxic gas is impossible to see, feel or smell. Carbon monoxide is the most prevalent cause of poisoning deaths in the United States but mold and mildew are more widely known because they are unpleasant to the eyes and can cause respiratory and other allergic reactions. They can also be seen.
Carbon monoxide is more hazardous to health than most of us believe. It can cause immediate death when the volume is high and even small leaks when left unchecked for long periods of time can cause vomiting, dizziness and weakness that are at times incorrectly identified as flu.
The danger is further aggravated because most homes do not have the right ventilation. Most homeowners like to use home insulation materials and close the windows and other sources where natural air can come from in order to keep indoor temperature.
Carbon monoxide is more harmful to humans than we are aware of. Without proper ventilation, it can collect indoors and cause serious harm. Big concentrations can cause death in a short time especially when the seepage happens during the night when the victims are sleeping. Breathing carbon monoxide fumes stimulate sleep and the victims can die without even knowing that there was a leak.
Installing a gas detector is your best defense against carbon monoxide and liquefied gas poisoning. We all have one or more carbon monoxide producing appliances at home. Installing a gas detector is not yet required in some states but it is a prudent decision to install them just the same. The type and number of units to purchase depends on your actual needs. Experts suggest installing them within 15 feet of from the entrance of every room that have carbon monoxide emitting appliance. Multi level houses should also have carbon monoxide detectors in every level.
If you are also planning to install a smoke detector, there are models that combine a gas detector and a smoke detector in a single unit. There are also types that can detect not only carbon dioxide but also liquefied gas and other possible gasses. The kitchen is the best place to install these types of unit.
Indoor ventilation can be improved in leaps and bounds by incorporating an air filtration system and roof ventilation in the plans when building a new home or doing some large repair jobs, The BBB in a recent statement said that technical jobs like this must be performed by a duly licensed roofing and Heating, Ventilating and Air Conditioning (HVAC) contractor.
A carbon monoxide detector is a very useful device in guarding your family from the ill effects of carbon monoxide poisoning. There are various models to choose from and the price is as wide ranging as the type of models available. Combination smoke and gas detector for example are best suited for the kitchen area.

MEXICO CITY — The players' entrance into Estadio Azteca is akin to a catacomb. The smell of stale urine and a half-century of sweat are palpable as players wind through the belly of an historic venue where tunnel walls are covered with images of legendary moments and players who have walked the same path.
"You see the murals. You see the pictures and teams and results and all the events they've held in this stadium," TFC goalkeeper Alex Bono remarked to the Toronto Sun ahead of Tuesday night's decisive Champions League semifinal. "It's really an historic venue — one of the most historic in the world."
It's impossible to ignore the aura that wafts throughout this stadium. You can't help but gaze at the sheer size of Club America's home venue while thinking back to iconic moments that have taken place on the same ground.
Diego Maradona's infamous "Hand of God" goal happened steps away from where Bono spoke following pre-match training.
"You're standing in the middle of the field, looking around, and you're just like, 'Wow!'" Bono said as his teammates snapped panorama photos of the cavernous stadium.
It's like being starstruck without the star. How players deal with the aura and atmosphere and buildup to big games here can determine the outcome of fixtures played inside one of the world's most revered football cathedrals.
"You try and put it off until the last whistle. You tune it out as best you can. You try not to look up there and become intimidated," Bono said. "My focus is going to be between the white lines. No matter what the result, you can look around (post-game) and you see what's going on."
And to think it was just three years ago Bono was toiling — some would say struggling — during a prolonged stay with TFC II. There were muted calls at the time for then-No. 4 'keeper Quillan Roberts to be promoted ahead of Bono to the first team.
Since then, Bono's rise has been nothing short of meteoric. His first full season between the pipes resulted in the Reds winning everything there is to win. Months later, he finds himself suiting up in Azteca.
"There were a few weeks with TFC II where the results weren't going well and I wasn't playing well and I got on a bad pattern," Bono explained. "I lost my professional responsibilities in a way. I said to myself, 'If it's going to go on like this, you aren't going to find yourself further along than you are.'
"That's when I started getting in the gym, doing extra training, putting in the man hours to make sure I gave myself physically and mentally the best chance to take the next step and take more steps after that. I made a real change."
Part of the allure this week was having the opportunity to feature inside a venue that has hosted numerous big ties between Mexico and the United States. Bono's recent form has drawn the attention of a U.S. squad that's casting its net far and wide to bring in new talent following recent failures.
"I really want to be part of that team going forward," added Bono, who despite earning call-ups has yet to appear for the Stars and Stripes. "It's a disappointment we won't be in Russia, but on the bright side guys like me get a chance to go in and prove their worth before meaningful games start again."
There isn't a 'keeper in the U.S. pool right now who has featured in more big games than Bono over the previous six months. The 23-year-old has performed in numerous playoff fixtures and Cup games. He's performed in Tigres' Estadio Universitario and played a big part in TFC's Champions League run.
"It's flown by," Bono said of his climb to relative prominence. "Our team has gotten to a point where we have the opportunity to play in these venues and in these games and atmospheres. It's really special. I'm so honoured and so blessed to be a part of this organization."
Win or lose Tuesday night, Bono looked around and considered returning to Estadio Azteca with a different kit on, to experience the same mystique again.
"Hopefully one day I'll be part of it at the international level," Bono remarked. "That would be the pinnacle for me.
"It's on me."

In now: Fresh, pink-tinged ginger is juicier than the older rhizomes and not as spicy. Use it in juices, desserts and soups, but don't store it long. It doesn't keep.
At its best: Blood oranges produce the anthocyanins that colour them red in response to differences in day and night time temperatures. The best coloured fruit, grown in the Riverina by the Mancini brothers under the Redbelly label, is in store now. The Mancinis are trialling an infrared scanner that they hope will enable them to assess the internal colour of the fruit in the packing shed and grade it according to its bloodiness, taking the disappointment out of cutting open a blood orange suffering from anaemia.
Best buy: Locally grown bunches of English spinach are at their most affordable.
In the vegie patch: Grow watercress in a container with a saucer. Water as soon as the saucer dries out to keep roots moist at all times.
What else:
- plant breeders have put a tint into Chinese cabbage. Try the new purple wombok cooked or raw.
- radicchio is tasting great
- the asparagus is still all imported and cold weather in Victoria means the local harvest might not make the usual September 1 launch.
- peak of the season for celeriac

Legal proceedings are underway against travellers who moved onto playing fields in Gomersal on Wednesday morning.
A group of caravans arrived to set up camp on land behind the old Maccess building on Nibshaw Lane.
It is believed that the group are the same party that has been based at New North Road in Heckondwike during the past few weeks, where an eviction notice was due to expire on Wednesday lunchtime.
Enforcement officers attended the site to make a formal assessment and the matter is now expected to go to court next week. It is hoped the group will move on peacefully should another eviction notice be served.
It is not the first time travellers have used the land.
They used it as a base back in 2012.
That time residents were left upset by the aggressive behaviour of animals belonging to the travellers and by the large amounts of rubbish and waste left behind.
Liversedge and Gomersal councillor Lisa Holmes said nearby homeowners were already unsettled by the travellers' presence.
"I've heard people are very concerned that the travellers are using the field there as a toilet and they're not being discreet about it either, which is obviously very upsetting for local residents," she said.
"I understand the case should be in court by Wednesday in which case they'll hopefully be off by the end of the week but you never know with these things."
Christine Warrillow, who lives near the site, said: "They have been here before but I'm not 100 per cent sure how long they were there for.
"We walk our dog down that way and I think they left the place in quite a mess last time which wasn't good for us."
A spokesman for Kirklees Council said that the issue was a matter for the land owners.

Grand Theft Auto is all about creating a realistic, immersive world - and then doing things within that world that no one in their right mind would EVER even attempt in reality. They steal cars with abandon, drive like maniacs, shoot at innocent civilians, and generally cause all kinds of havoc.
In the last month or so, however, there have been a few videos of people who are acting like they're in a game of Grand Theft Auto IN REAL LIFE. The thin line separating the virtual world from the real world has broken down. Unfortunately, it's not just a quick hospital visit and a $500 charge for these guys:
Punching at nothing in particular? Wandering down a street without a shirt on? Trying to steal a "sexy ass" car and failing miserably? Then immediately being caught by the cops? This guy's the truest gamer ever.
Driving in a mini-van down the wrong side of the road? Casually knocking other cars off the road, then getting out of your car and STEALING their car? Crashing at an intersection and then immediately getting out as if that didn't hurt at all? Then RUNNING ON FOOT from the cops? Then finally getting caught because you can't jump over a fence? SO GTA.
Sadly, there's no sound for this one. Luckily, we can help you:

BitRocket Capital Wins Bitcoin ATM Race
27 Mar, 2014, 12:15 GMT
SYDNEY, March 27, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
BitRocket Capital wins the race against fierce competition to launch the first Bitcoin ATM in Sydney, allowing the public to change the Aussie dollar into Bitcoin in just 15 seconds.
Those curious to experiment with Bitcoin can now convert cash into the world's fastest growing economy in just 15 seconds and three easy steps. The buyer scans their bitcoin address 'QR code' pattern, inserts notes, and presses send.
The new Bitrocket ATM is at the multi award-winning Black Star Pastry & Cafe's new branch in the up-and-coming gourmet hub of Rosebery's Dunning Ave (Cnr Hayes Rd) and is now the easiest way to for people to get their hands on the digital internet cash which was tipped Forbes magazine's best investment of 2013.
BitRocket Founder, Joe Richards believes this will be the final missing piece in the adoption of Bitcoin: "Many people have heard about Bitcoin and would like to try the peer-to-peer bank-less currency without the hassle and risk of arranging meet-ups or transferring money to foreign exchanges. BitRocket makes buying Bitcoin easy. Traditional ATMs withdraw money - with Bitcoin, you are your bank, so depositing is the true key part of the puzzle. It takes 15 seconds and even a grandma can do it.".
Around 9 in 10 citizens of the world don't have access to many financial services, such as banks or credit cards. With a local Bitcoin ATM they can now buy farming equipment online or transfer money to a relative in another country for the cost of less than a cent per transfer. BitRocket is offering a 'donation menu', where buyers of the digital currency can browse and scan a QR code for a charity or cause of their choice to send a small portion of their freshly bought coins. Even tiny donations are now practical because of the low transaction costs and ease. Of course users of BitRocket can also spend them immediately on Blackstar's specialty cakes & deserts. "There are no middle-men involved in such a transaction, this is what makes it a historical first. It is true digital cash for a digital age."
Aside from the novelty factor, he says there are other aspects that are attractive to first-world citizens: "Anyone who wants a bit of diversity to their investment portfolio can consider an investment like Bitcoin. If you'd put $10 into this ATM three years ago, you would now have $7,000." In fact the current price of around A$700 is not even its peak, as it rocketed from $100 in October to the the heady heights of A$1250 four months ago.
Christopher Thé, owner of popular Black Star says: "Accepting bitcoin was an easy decision, we like to innovate and experiment and saw several upsides of accepting bitcoin and hosting the ATM. Some of our suppliers such as Joostice Juices already transact with bitcoin. Adding convenience to our customers and suppliers requires virtually no extra effort on our part". Merchants have zero fraud or charge-back risk with Bitcoin, unlike credit cards. This opens up whole new markets for online businesses to deliver and cater to area of the world and demographics that previously were too risky for businesses to engage in. Taxis, calling card vendors and market-stall businesses also have to contend with high card fraud rates and build this risk into their prices, so Bitcoin offers a way to reduce prices for those who adopt it.
After using BitRocket, the bitcoin can then be used to buy a number of things, including the offerings of the Black Star Cafe, beers at the Old Fitzroy Hotel in Sydney, health and spa treatments or trips to outer space with Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic.
BitRocket is arranging placement of further ATMs in convenient locations around the country on behalf of other investors: focussing on cafes, pubs and malls and will work with other early ATM business adopters to streamline services. "People believe running an ATM business is as easy as finding a place to park it, secure it and empty it. It's not that easy, and ATM operators have to consider convenience of the site, currency rates & risk, logistics, accounting, compliance, security and marketing amongst other things. By working with us, and our brand, an ATM operator can focus on what they're good at.".
2014 could be the year Bitcoin comes of age. Transactions from 10c donations through to Richard Branson's $250,000 Virgin Galactic trips to space are now virtually instant and free. Micro-payments and donations are a new area, and large purchases do not require an hour talking to the bank or credit card provider to ensure the transaction goes through successfully, or that the exchange rate is not a rip-off. Richards is certainly upbeat about its uses: "Tourists can now capture the flexibility Bitcoin offers, spending it on travel, food and entertainment. Rather than struggling with travellers cheques, credit card feeds and left-over foreign currency, travellers can now leverage Bitcoin internationally with a single flick on their smart phone.".
Joe Richards explains there are other ways to get Bitcoin: "When sending money to an exchange like the recently defunct Mt Gox, you are trusting the operator in another country to not steal your funds. This is no better than when governments had to bail out banks, your money isn't under your control. Buying your Bitcoin instantly means it's securely in your wallet, no matter who goes bust or what crisis happens. Bitcoin is the first currency that could survive a total collapse of the financial system, apart from gold. You can't easily split gold up and send it to people in seconds, and checking it's genuine takes an expert. Gold has few real-world uses outside jewellery and electronics."

There are moments of perfection in life, moments you wish could be frozen forever. Such was the hour this past Sunday as I walked with my daughter and her boyfriend on a now familiar path through the countryside on the southern border of Germany.
Everything about the walk was perfect. It had been snowing all morning, but stopped just prior to our walk leaving the landscape and architecture blanketed in snow white. The light was sensual, the conversation perfectly appropriate.
The land itself was filled with abundant signs of fertility and beauty. Couple's walked by; a train passes and as it moves on we hear the music of silence. Shalom. May it never end.
But of course, it does end. They return to their homes west of me, and I to my room. Later that night, I read this from a friend who lives in Africa: Back in Nairobi from a mind blowing trip into South Sudan and Sudan. I can claim to have faced hardship from rare time to time but I can now never claim to know suffering for my beliefs or suffering period. Great to give all my family a big ole hug tonight. I'm naive, not knowing any details of the suffering faithful in Sudan, but his comments shake me.
This morning my devotions take me to I Peter and multiple exhortations about the goodness of suffering, including this one. I stare out the window of my room, looking across the road to a neighbor's house, knowing full well that the owners spend their days nurturing plants, trimming hedges, pruning trees for fruit to grow, as they grow old together. Their world, and mine, is far from the suffering of which Peter speaks, let alone Sudan, or Syria, or countless other places.
…or other times. This very place where my moment of Shalom occurred was bombed into oblivion during WWII, because it was an industrial area, a hub for aviation production, filled with factories supplied with labor by prisoners from Dachau and other concentration camps. 70 years ago, there was fear, hate, war, deprivation, death. Now, same place, different time, and three American walk through rustic simplicity and beauty with hearts full of peace and joy.
My God – what kind of a world is this, where one is born to shattering bombs, another to blossoms and paths through the forest? The juxtaposition of shalom and suffering is one of the great tensions and mysteries of life, birthing questions asked not just by Christ followers, but by all people everywhere. These realities create questions, but there are answers, and they come from two of my favorite people, Jesus and Gandalf.
Jesus tells Peter that the end of his life will be characterized by him being led, against his will, into places he'd prefer to avoid. When Peter hears this he immediately points to John and says, "what about him?" exposing the human hearts longing for equanimity and our own sense of justice. Jesus' answer is disturbingly comforting: "If I want him to remain until I come, what is that to you. You follow me!" This is Jesus' way of saying, "you'd better not compare yourself and your lot in life with that of those around you, because if you do, you'll drive yourself crazy. You have a life. You have a calling. You have a context. Get on with it, and live it well, with as much joy as possible."
1. What will I do with the time I've been given? – This isn't WWII. It's an era of drone strikes, and terror threats, of greed and superficiality, of addictions to work and stuff, of relational poverty and material abundance. This is the time of our lives, and the question we must ask is what it means to live faithfully right here in the midst of this particular kind of insanity, for the truth is that every time and season has its own challenges and opportunities, and ours is no different. It's no good guilting ourselves over living where we do. It no good indulging callously either. Rather, we must ask the question: what does faithfulness look like in this time? The answer will set us swimming upstream against several prevailing tides of culture, and such swimming is hard work, but that's the calling.
2. What will I do with the body I've been given? I have strengths and weaknesses. I have sexual longings. I face the inevitability of aging, but at a time and place where I have the knowledge and resources to care for my body. Will I? Will I submit my sexual self to God's revelation? Will I do the things I know contribute to health? Will I seek to be a person of blessing when health leaves me?
3. What will I do with the gifts I've been given? Everyone has strengths, particular abilities that come easier and shine brighter. Our lives our fullest to the extent that we find those gifts and develop them, so that we might bless others. After all, we're invited to the incredible calling of being light in a dark world, and we'll do that best by finding our strengths and using them (a bigger topic, for a different time).
4. What will I do in the place I've been given? Germany circa 1935 is very different from 1942, is very different from 2012, but our destiny is determined by the convergence of place and time. Most who read these words find themselves in places of abundance and ease, but these elements can either be blessings we use to serve a dark world, or drugs that lull is into complacency. We who are so richly blessed by our particular time/place context must recognize that much is required of us, that we're to use all the resources at our disposal to serve and bless our broken world. Whether I'm free to teach on two or three continents every year, or confined to a prison like Dietrich Bonhoeffer is not mine to choose. Mine is to be faithful with the place I've been given.
There's a large extent to which none of us choose time, body, gifts, place – they've been given to us. This is perhaps the most important thing for me to remember in a world where, on any given day, any given person might face either shalom or suffering, breathtaking beauty or heartbreaking suffering. It was Simone Weil who said that great beauty and great suffering are the two means through which God transforms us. How, to quote Job, can we accept either one without accepting the other?
This morning as I write, the snow's turned to Seattle-ish rain, and the white blanket's disappeared. "Ah" I say to myself, "normal has come again." The gift of shalom lingers though, settling into the recesses of my soul to bring gratitude, joy, and faith. These gifts will be needed later for other times and seasons, and I pray we'll all have the grace to meet those days too as people of hope because this is, whether in suffering or shalom, always our calling.

Wax leaf begonias (Begonia semperflorens) are the most popular begonia. The name is inspired from their waxy leaves. You can grow these freely flowering begonias in outdoor flower beds or in containers. Wax begonias are often grown as annual bedding flowers, but they're actually frost-sensitive perennials. Although some types of wax begonias tolerate more sun than others, they generally withstand more sun than other types of begonias. Grown indoors or outdoors, wax begonias are low maintenance and easy to grow.
If growing in containers, place your wax leaf begonias in bright to moderate light during winter and in partial shade during summer. If you're growing the begonias in the ground outdoors, select a planting site with some bright sunlight and some shade protection from the afternoon sun.
Water your container-grown wax begonias once or twice per week, or when the topmost layer of potting mix feels dry to the touch. Provide water until it comes out of the drainage holes. Keep the potting mix evenly moistened; don't allow the mix to dry out between waterings.
Water your outdoor wax leaf begonias once every one week to 10 days in the absence of rainfall. Provide water to soak the soil down to and around the begonias' roots.
Feed your wax leaf begonias with a liquid all-purpose plant fertilizer once every two weeks at half the normal dosage rate.
Spread a 2- to 3-inch-thick layer of organic mulch on the ground around your wax leaf begonias in spring. The mulch will help to regulate soil moisture and control weeds.
Pinch back the wax begonia's branch tips while they're actively growing to encourage healthy branching and bushier growth. Stop pinching back the tips in summer to allow the begonias to flower. Remove faded flowers from the wax begonia to keep the plant tidy.
Things You Will Need
- Hose or watering can
- Liquid all-purpose fertilizer
- Organic mulch
- If you're growing the wax begonias in the ground outdoors and you live in a region with freezing temperatures during winter, you can dig up the begonias in the fall before the first frost and pot them to preserve the plants through the winter months.
- Don't overwater your wax begonia or allow it to sit in waterlogged soil. Empty any pooled water from the drainage dish after watering your begonia.
- Avoid overfertilizing. Wax leaf begonias are "light feeders," meaning that they require little fertilizer. Additionally, begonias are sensitive to salts, which may build up in the soil from fertilizers.

Livecube, the event technology service that BMA announced a few weeks ago it would be deploying at BMA14, will be the tool that selected BMA14 speakers and panel moderators use to solicit audience feedback on questions relevant to each session.
Instead of attendees being given a wireless response pad, as BMA did at BLAZE last year, BMA14 attendees will be able to access and respond to any audience questions posed by presenters via the Livecube system on their smartphones, tablets and/or laptops.
Please view this short demo video, narrated by Barry Seidenstat of ROI Communications Solutions and BMA's conference technology advisor since 2009.
Trouble viewing the video? Click here.
Those presenters who choose to use the Livecube polling system will cue up multiple choice and true-false questions on the screen behind them and give audience members several seconds to respond, A while later, you will then see the cumulative audience responses displayed on backdrop screen in chart or table form.
Given the size of the expected BMA14 turnout—900+ b2b marjeters from 420+ companies and as many as 45 states and 13 nations—BMA believes the sample size will be sufficient for the information collected to be published afterwards as "new b2b marketing knowledge," according to Gary Slack, BMA's VP of Professional Development and BMA14 organizer.
All BMA14 attendees will receive a consolidated polling report within 2-3 weeks of the conference, and the full findings will be available around the same time at www.marketing.org.

what is wordpress
WordPress is an open source application that originally creates blogs now it's that gone beyond it.using word press you can design from a simple blog to an advanced website, you can do so using using WordPress which is a cloud hosted server or you can install WordPress on your own server and hosted from there.
word-press is created by the guy name Matt Mullenweg and this is his WordPress blog. http"//ma.tt/. Here you can read about what he is doing and most importantly see what it persists.
- WordPress is haven't be just a blog it can be anything you just want, a lot of magazines use word press like www.inhabitat.com. because it is a very easy way for organizing content and you can also style it and make it look very much what ever you want .
Through wordpress can manage the content through Dashboard. WordPress dashboard is something you find both on wordpress.com and wordpress.org(your self hosted sites).If you want to just setup a basic website when you have no idea how to do any type of webdesign or web-development you can set up a word-press website and you will never have to worried about the code.
WordPress shifts with full administration panel and appears inside the browser so you all have to do is active word press and then you can manage all your content writing posts, pages, managing photos and videos all from admin panel from your browser.
That means you don't have to concentrate to upload and download files and manage the HTML and css code. This is the true strength of word press , easy usability for every one ,Any one can set up a word-press site and any one can work to their advantage
Hope you get some idea what is WordPress . Please Let me If you have any queries in the Comment Box. I am Always there to Assist and guide.

Experiment-Experimentalism An international interdisciplinary conference on science and the avant-garde
Manchester Museum, Manchester, 11-12 March 2005
Artistic practices are often described 'experimental,' but what exactly is the nature of relations between art and the notion of experimentation in science?
The conference Experiment-Experimentalism aims to explore this question by bringing out rigorous, parodic and poetic connections between experimentalism in the sciences and in the visual arts from the early twentieth century to this day. Bringing together historians, art historians, historians of science and technology, artists and philosophers, this conference will seek to track the migration of such terms as 'research' and 'experiment' from science to cultural spheres, and to address different issues and themes such as the emphasis on process over results, as well as notions of chance and risk in the avant-garde and science.
Speakers will include art historians Stephen Bann, Anna Dezeuze, Caroline Jones, David Lomas, Philippe-Alain Michaud, Astrid Ruffa and Aris Sarafianos; historians of science Cornelius Borck, Robert Brain, Ilana Löwy, John Pickstone, George Rousseau and Joseph Wachelder; philosophers Peter Osborne and Elie During; literature historian Jeremy Stubbs, and artist Mark Dion.
Conference fee (including lunch and coffee): Stlg40 (Stlg20 students).
To book a place, or find out more, please contact Ann Kirkham at [email protected] .
Updates and the final programme will also be published on our website at http://www.surrealismcentre.ac.uk/news/events.htm
The conference is organised by the AHRB Research Centre for Studies of Surrealism and its Legacies in collaboration with the Centre for the History of Science, Technology and Medicine (CHSTM), University of Manchester.

WORKSHOP TITLE: Healing with Language presented by Shonda Buchanan, English professor at Hampton University.
WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION: Many use language to communicate in various ways at every moment in their lives, but most, unless you are a writer, fail to see how language gives one the ability to address mysterious moments, traumatic events or issues of the past. In this reflective creative writing workshop, we will explore the concept of how language can be used to unearth, address and heal from those moments. After studying poems from writers such as Sharon Olds, Li-Young Lee and A. Van Jordan, we will write our own poems that reflect an episode, a person or secret left behind.
This writing workshop is for both budding and experienced writers, as well as those who have no writing experience. I will work with all writers from "where you are" to explore your thoughts and ideas through writing, and in your poems.
Amazon.com Gift Cards are the perfect gift. Eligible for millions of items, Amazon.com Gift Cards are easy to give and fun to get. Please consider purchasing an Amazon.com Gift Certificate or two for the special people in your life. THANKS!

TFH are a fishkeeping magazine which is now available in print and also as a digital only version as well for those of us who are low on cash or wish to avoid increasing their carbon footprint. I subscribe to the magazine myself and have found the digital version to be as good (if not better!) quality then the printed option. I would recommend that everyone tries out the digital option for themselves and see how you get on!

S: Walt Disney World 2011Family Vacation
1: The first day was just for us girls! Islands of Adventure!
2: Talking portraits. They were very interested with the upcoming Quidditch match. | At the Hog's Head is where we tried, and disposed of, our butterbeers. | Hogwarts castle was IMPRESSIVE! It was so beautiful at night, too! | Skye is getting ready for her first day at Hogwarts! I am so proud! A witch in the family! | This is Dumbledore's room. He's up there. He's just hard to see. | We visited Harry Potter Land in the day and at night. The Forbidden Forest ride was awesome! We would have bought the souvenir picture, but it's hard to look cool with a giant dragon breathing hot steam in your face! We tried 3 times to look cool, and failed every time.
3: Ron, Harry, and Hermoine were on the balcony, but as soon as I took the picture, it was like they disappeared! | Gryffindor is ahead in house points. | The Hippogriff ride | Honeyduke's is where they sell Bertie Bott's every flavor beans. I must say I quite enjoyed dirt. It tasted like stinkbug to me. Sausage, however, was awful! And vomit, unfortunately, was spot on. Ugh.
4: Christmas was in full swing at Seussland! As you can see, it was colorful and gorgeous! I only wish all my pictures had been taken during the day!
5: Onto the Jurassic Park area. Here we scanned for fossils, watched a baby dinosaur hatch, and combined our DNA with dino DNA to make unstable clones!
6: We spent so much time at Diagon Alley, the Sinbad show, the Lost Continent with Poseidon, and the magic show, that we didn't get into the Marvel area until nighttime. The Spiderman ride in 3D was awesome! We had the best seats. Bombs, shrapnel, gusts of fire (including the heat), water, and the ground kept flying straight at us! Universal Studios 3D rides were much better than Disney's since they were mixed with roller coaster movements and real scenery. This page really makes me want to hum the theme song to Batman.
7: The next day we visited our first Walt Disney park, Hollywood Studios! (Not the same as Hollywood Arts.) | The first attraction we went to was Star Tours! | I can't wait to go where no man has gone before. Wait...that's Star TREK. I mean, cool. Space. I wonder if Han Solo is here. He's cool. | You can't tell here, but Skye was terrified of the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror...until she rode it Then she wanted to go again!
8: We watched a cars stunt show. It took over 5 minutes to walk here after we got into the front gate area! I took some awesome pics. I had it goin' on with the camera here! | Twin cars. One drives forward, one backwards. Their car friends can tell them apart, though. | Lightning McQueen. Enough said. | Evil spy car. Lightning tried to catch him, but he got away! | Fruit delivery trucks. Not conspicuous at all. | BAM! The car just went Dukes of Hazzard! | What's that gunman doing on the top of the building?!?! | He's FALLING! He's gonna get hurt! | Cars can't drive like that... | Or can they? I wanna try this at home! | Seems like overkill to shoot a guy that's on fire... | Maybe he knew about all those guys standing around with fire extinguishers.
9: After the stunt show, we watched a Muppets 3D show and played in the fountain. Then, the kids went and played with GIANT insects at the Honey I Shrunk the Kids Playground. Thai ate some of the gigantic oatmeal cookie you see him pictured with. He said it was delicious! | The bears don't steal honey from the bees here. Here, the bees tickle the bears for their picnic baskets.
10: The set of the Indiana Jones Stunt show... | Next, to the mean streets of Cairo. | The dust settles after the boulder has rolled through. Thankfully, Indiana is still standing! | Apparently the boulder's not as heavy as it looked! Either that, or this is one strong guy rolling it back into place. | Gold for sand... Who doesn't want to make that trade? | With explosions galore! And fighting! | That guy got knocked out by a girl! | More fighting - this time by the airplane propellers | Oh no! Gasoline leak! What will happen?!??
11: The next day, we went to Epcot. We started by visiting Mission Space, where we each pretended we were part of the space crew. Who was pilot? I can't remember, but we crashed! Next we went on The Land, a ride which talked about preserving the environment through innovative means, like this cooperative environment in which fish and plants help each other. Soarin' took us up high over the United States on a beautiful trip! It was Jasmine's favorite ride! | I want to be the pilot. I guess navigator's, too...
12: Then we took a tour about the world Epcot style! We visited multiple places, including Lilliput, and saw some of our country's most famous figures, animatronic-style!
13: We also tried on some hats! And, oh yeah, we visited Epcot's Future World. Jasmine wanted nothing to do with the hat-trying-on. Here is Skye looking beautiful for both of them!
14: We started Magic Kingdom off right at Space Mountain! | We didn't get pictures of the ride, but here we are in line with our Vinylmations! | On to Adventureland, where we visited the Swiss Family Robinson's treehouse, and met Princess Jasmine! | Jasmine refused to talk to Jasmine!
15: There were some strange people at the park. One guy was wearing a pirate's hat. Some other guy's shorts matched his backpack. Matey verses matchey matchey. | Here we are on the jungle safari. It was very scary! Not shown: CANNIBALS! (Couldn't take pictures. Had to duck from the arrows) | ARRRR!
16: After THAT adventure, it was time to eat! | Vinylmation dudes have to eat, too! | Is Jasmine eating flowers? Next thing you know, she'll be farting butterflies! (Julieta Venegas: Bien O Mal)
17: The It's A Small World Ride...
18: Was Not So Small
19: Just hanging around Magic Kingdom was pretty cool... | We saw the castle.... | The castle at night... | Til Skye got in trouble with Cinderella | The Liberty Bell... | More Liberty Bell Here... | Met some aliens... | Tried on some 'staches...
20: At Animal Kingdom, we walked around a jungle-like area. We saw tigers and large fruit bats. In the Nepal area was my favorite ride, Expedition Everest, which involved a crazed yeti who tore up the tracks and threatened to eat us! | This tree got Jasmine's stamp of approval!
21: Skye's favorite ride was Dinosaur. In it, we went back to the dinosaur age and rescued a dino right before a meteor shower that made the dinosaurs extinct! We almost got hit! And we almost got eaten by a carnivorous T-Rex! | We ended the day with a train ride and a behind-the-scenes look at the zoo.
23: We were back home in time for Christmas! Jasmine was a bit sad because she wanted to open presents with our kitty. May had run out the day before vacation! She didn't come back to us until January 17th. We thought she was gone for good, and had even gotten another kitty. Thank goodness she came back to us! May looked very happy to be home! And tired! | Oreo was adorable and such a lap kitty! But, she didn't like kids! | We were SO happy to see May back. She was super-skinny, but healthy! Here she is, sleeping after she came back. The other picture we used on her missing flyers. | We still have Mew! She's one adorable fraidy-cat! | We're hoping Chyna and May can get along. We'd love to keep them both! Chyna loves belly-rubs and being where the action is.

My job, as a Virtual Assistant, is supporting small organizations by completing their everyday administration.
They can then spend their time doing what only they are good at, which is "getting on with growing their business".
With over 30 years' experience as a full-time office-based PA, latterly at International Director level, I have now been working as a VA from home for over 5 years.
Well, let's get down to business. What help might you need?
Typing your reports
Typing up your voice files
Formatting your drafted reports
Entering data on your spreadsheets
Help you at meetings - preparation before and assistance at an event
Preparing powerpoint presentations for those meetings with potential clients
Doing some internet research or data mining
Letters written from your notes
Placing all those business cards onto a database for:
- Mailings to current customers
- Mailings to prospective customers
If you need help on a one-off basis, that's fine.
If you need help for a short-term project, that's fine.
If we need to set aside ongoing regular weekly time blocks, this is fine.
You can pay hourly for what time you require, only when you need it, and overcome those expensive extras of hiring full-time staff, dealing with sick pay, holiday cover, renting office space, and all the other overheads .....
To give you some idea of who I am working with, I am currently doing admin for:
- an Expert Witness, adding the professional touch to the formatting of her Reports, so they are ready for Court
- an Accountancy broker, setting up presentations for business buyers
- a Charity, attending their Board meetings, taking minutes and offering additional admin support and internet research, as and when needed
- a Children's Nursery, transcribing meeting notes
But please take a look at how I can help you with my Services.

Vision for Peebles is a community initiative to develop a Master Planning Design Framework for Peebles that captures the medium to long term aspirations of residents covering not only the physical development of the town footprint, but its inter-connectivity, the provision of services (schools, medical, care, social support, utilities, business infrastructure). An initiative of the Community Council and a number of Peebles organisations the target is to achieve recognition of a community originated Master Plan by May 2015. Along the way it is planned to canvas community opinion through a variety of processes - including neighbourhood walkabouts, exhibitions and workshops - and to fund and organise a week-long community planning process called a Charrette, drawing together urban planning and design specialists, SBC officers and the community.
Taking forward an initiative of the town's Community Council "A Vision for Peebles" is now setting up shop to begin to draw together the views of residents on how the town and surrounds should develop over time. "There's a lot going on in and around Peebles as we shift to "summer time"" says Crick Carleton, chair of the Community Council Planning Committee; "whether it's welcoming visitors to town, engaging in the ongoing debate on a second bridge, or examining new proposals for housing development." So begins the task of drawing together the town's views on its future. "It is not just about the big things, it is also about the everyday concerns – getting a doctor's appointment at the surgery, getting to and from work, ensuring that our less able neighbours were warm and could get shopping during the recent snow, or making sure that the kids are safe getting to and from school. A Vision for Peebles is a way of drawing all these issues together - whether problems or aspirations - into a coherent medium-term plan".
To get things rolling, over the next couple of months the A Vision for Peebles management group will be orchestrating a number of neighbourhood walkabouts – getting small groups of people (groups of six to ten people) in different parts of town to get together to explore some of the really local issues in the context of their immediate neighbourhood.
For example - meeting up at someone's house, discussing the format for the walkabout, then taking a short wander round the neighbourhood to identify issues, and meeting back at base for a tea and a chat. Someone keeps track of issues and ideas raised (a combination of drawing on simple sketch maps, accompanied by some note-taking). Someone from the management group can also be on-site to advise on the process. And walkabouts can take place at any time – daytime, evenings, weekends.
We would encourage similar exercises to be undertaken by special interest groups – town centre retailers, mothers and toddlers, school students, home workers, etc.. The A Vision for Peebles team will then draw this information together with a view to raising these issues for broader debate in one or more larger-format public meetings.
Anyone who would like to host a group session, order an information pack or would like to otherwise assist with the process, please get in touch with the initiative's secretary, Myriam Baete. Contact details – email: email@example.com; tel: 01721 729839.
A Vision for Peebles – an initiative supported by the Peebles and District Community Council, Peebles Civic Society, The Royal Burgh of Peebles Callants Club, The Guildry Corporation of Peebles, the Tweed Valley Tourist Consortium, Peebles Rotary Club, Peebles Community Trust and The Bridge (supporting Community and Voluntary Organisations).

I have been loving Ann Taylor Loft this spring. Between my 6 month shopping hiatus (because of so much work travel) as well as all their bright new colors, fun prints, cute ads and weekly sales – I've picked up quite a few new pieces over the past few weeks – and all for really great prices!
I bought this shirt a long time ago, belt two weeks ago and then the shorts two days ago – each individually before seeing the above advertisement on their website. What a great combination! I never would have known that you could put a printed belt with tribal shorts but I think it looks great! And I would have probably worn a white shirt with the shorts but I love that this blue is unexpected yet works! Great summer outfit for all kinds of fun! (Lot's of exclamation points!!)

Rowley, who previously worked with Oracle when it acquired Eloqua, also worked for Salesforce.com as and held advisory positions at TrackMaven, HubSpot, and Affinio.
Rowley, a "social selling evangelist" and strategic business adviser, will report to Marketo chief executive Steve Lucas.
"Marketo is rapidly accelerating upmarket to serve the needs of global enterprises, and this requires a fresh approach to how we connect with our prospects, customers, partners, and even our employees," said Lucas.
"Jill will be an invaluable partner to our whole team in this endeavour, and I am thrilled to welcome her to the Marketing Nation."
Rowley will concurrently serve as chief growth officer at social selling and digital sales training organisation Sales for Life.
"In the engagement economy, it's not about selling a product. It's about earning trust and delivering value by truly understanding the needs of your buyer. This leads to more revenue, greater market share, and personal growth for each individual who is part of the customer journey," said Rowley.
"I predict that by 2020 we'll see a wave of chief marketing officers who lap sales in the revenue journey, and I am excited to be part of Marketo's role in accelerating this shift."

I am configuring the Google Analytics + (220.127.116.11) for my first time. I have one issue and two questions:
I have a WP 3.8.1 installation with subdirectory multisite running on a LEMP stack that will be for only one client. The client has multiple websites divided into separate entities. I am not using domain mapping for any of the sub-sites at this time, but will be once the project is launched into production. I have Google Analytics + Version 22.214.171.124 Network Activated. With the Super Admin account, I have entered my Tracking ID for the GA Property that I wish to use for Network-wide tracking into the config at Network Admin Dashboard>Settings>Google Analytics. I have also logged into my Google Analytics account from the plugin's Network Admin settings page, and selected the same Tracking ID from the drop down.
When I go to the Network Admin Dashboard to view the Statistics widget, the circle continues to spin and it doesn't load. If I click "See All Stats," the same thing happens with a spinning circle that never loads. Could I be missing a setting somewhere?
Question 1:
I want to have a user (that has the Administrator user role assigned to the main root site and all subsites) to be able to view the network-wide analytics statistics. Is this possible if this particular user is not a "Super Admin" and does not have any of the manage_network_* capabilities?
Question 2:
I also want to do site-by-site tracking. Should I configure each of the subsites on Google Analytics as separate properties or as separate Views under the main Property for the entire network?

NYSC Director of Information in Oyo state, Mr Stephen Bankole announced Yesterday Thursday April14 in Ibadan in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that no fewer than 18 to 32 out of the 4,034 2015 batch A Corps members who served in Oyo state would repeat their service year due to evasion of service continuously for three months.
In his words "Extension occurs when a member did not attend his Place of Primary Assignment regularly or has not been signing monthly payment voucher as at when due. "However it is only NYSC headquarters that ratifies cases of abscondment,". He said that extensions of service were given to no fewer than seven corps members, ranging from one week to four months. Also that no fewer than 33 corps members who served in the state got married during service year, while 50 went on maternity leave.
Speaking further,Mr Bankole said "We had about 1,753 males and 2,281 females. "Six received award of exemplary service while 11 received award for execution of projects in their host communities,". The information officer advised the outgoing corps members to make good use of the entrepreneurial skills they acquired during service to enable them become self employed. "They should go into the larger society to earn their living honestly and legitimately as good citizens, no shortcuts," he said. Also to the corps members still in service to live exemplary life and be good citizens to avoid falling victim of extension of service or abscondment after their service year.
