We are taking on topics that arise when anyone and everyone can be a publisher, producer or media mogul.
The name Media Slaves comes from a mashup of the "slave generated content" label and social media. There are many if not all Web 2.0 companies and some communities that look at "user generated content" as their property. Merely a read of the TOS (Terms of Use) and EULAs (End User License Agreements) from corporate users of user generated content like Yahoo! proves that point. If we are preceived as free labor to companies, then we - as slaves, speaks to their desire to leave us out of the value chain and revenues. We are slaves because of our addiction to producing and consuming the many forms of conversational media.

I love the name. "Dream Team" would have worked too. But then again, I'm biased: For anyone interested in seeing these women work together in another medium, check out BlogHer.org's Blogging & Social Media channel where Zadi, Nicole, Marianne and Debi share their insights in text.
Count this listener in!
Right ON -- as I just posted at BlogHer, count me in as a slave to the Media Slaves. I am really excited about this blog and this podcast. Media Slaves is the latest media entity formed by women who met through BlogHer. And as someone who has read these women as Blogher's Blogging and Social Media editors, I wouldn't miss it for the world.
Debi - the design is truly gorgeous. I didn't realize Web design was among your many talents. Is there any chance we will see the BlogHer hermoticon among the icons in your crawl?
Thanks Marianne - Congrats and see, erm, hear you Tuesday! Now I'm off to post this on your blog...
Looks wonderful! I'm looking forward to becoming addicted to your podcasts! WOO HOO!!
Thanks for the well wishes and support, Lisa. As for the Blogher icon or logo, we should discuss that.
Nancy, you're the best! Thanks.
Ditto the great name! With 4 great bloggers this is sure to be additive. Congrats.

We planned to spend three nights in New Orleans as part of our trip, however due to recent flooding and a severe weather warning, we missed our first evening and stayed at a motel a few hours drive away. Still, we were lucky enough to spend both Friday and Saturday night in this great city.
I don't quite know what I expected from New Orleans, I think I possibly expected it to be similar to Nashville, but it is in fact very different.
It's very culturally diverse and has a relaxed, hippy vibe to the city. There is music and dancing around every corner, beers and other alcoholic beverages can be drunk on the streets and there are hundreds of quirky little shops to browse (or cool off from the heat!).
There is also some great local speciality food. Beignet's are delicious little donut's that are typically eaten for breakfast. There is a beautiful little cafe in City Park called Morning Call, which is a super relaxed place to eat these for breakfast. . In the evening, gumbo and jambalaya are typical main dishes and both are delicious. And of course, there's an abundance of delicious sea food! However, for us, the star of the food show was the muffuletta. Muffuletta originated in Central Grocery and Deli, so that's where we went! A delicious, sesame seed sandwich, filled with cheese, deli meats and olives. Heaven! Order a half between two and get extra if needed, they're very filling.
We spent the best part of the two days and nights listening to a whole host of excellent music. Bourbon street is infamous and on the outskirts it sounds like a great, fun place to drink. In actual fact, it's the USA's version of the Magaluf strip and we decided to avoid this. We did however find another street, which we much preferred; Frenchmans street.
Filled with little bars and restaurants pouring out sweet jazz symphonies their doorways, Frenchman street is definitely the place to go for a more authentic experience.
As I love to make lists, here are my three favourite bars to drink in on Frenchmans Street.
3) 80/20: This place has a great selection of beers and the music seemed to be constantly playing. There were a lot of excellent, talented artists in there.
2) Three Muses: A bar well renowned for its music and yet also serves the most delicious food. Food is American style with an Asian twist and the fries are divine! There's a distinctly classy vibe to the Three Muses and the majority of people are enjoying the music over dinner and a glass of wine. Whilst we were there we listened to two fantastic female acts playing beautiful, soulful music.
1) Finally, the Spotted Cat was our favourite bar. We visited both in the daytime and in the evening and both times was fantastic. A tiny little bar with great atmosphere, reasonably priced beers and the best of all the bands we saw. Not to be missed!
From New Orleans, we decided to move away from the city for a couple of days to explore New Mexico and the Grand Canyon. Posts to follow!

BBC English Regions is the division of the BBC responsible for local television, radio, web and teletext services in England. It is one of the BBC's four 'Nations' – the others being BBC Scotland, BBC Wales and BBC Northern Ireland.
The division is made up of 12 separate regions. Many of the names of these regions are similar to those of the official government Regions of England, but the areas covered are often significantly different as they are determined by terrestrial transmission areas, not administrative boundaries.
The headquarters of BBC English Regions is at The Mailbox in Birmingham, with regional television centres in Manchester, Leeds, Hull, Newcastle upon Tyne, Nottingham, Norwich, Bristol, London, Tunbridge Wells, Southampton and Plymouth, and local radio stations based at 43 locations across England.

Fed prosecutor pays price for passing school bus
BRIDGEPORT - A senior federal prosecutor, who demanded a trial after being ticketed for passing a school bus in Monroe, has instead decided to pay the ticket.
The witnesses had been assembled, the courtroom readied for trial Tuesday morning when Jacabed Rodriguez-Coss quietly went to the clerk's office in the Golden Hill Street courthouse and paid her $465 ticket.
She declined comment.
Rodriguez-Coss, an assistant U.S. Attorney and second in command of the state's National Security and Major Crimes Unit, had demanded another trial after a state magistrate on June 9 found her guilty of speeding by a school bus while it was picking up students on Monroe Turnpike and fined her $465.
Monroe police have received numerous complaints about cars passing school busses stopped to either pick up or drop off students.
On Nov. 13, 2015, Patrol Officer Brook Larsen was assigned to a traffic detail across from the Safe Harbour Daycare on Monroe Turnpike when she saw a school bus stop in the southbound lane with its lights activated and side stop sign out, according to court documents.
Students began getting into the bus when a 2011 Toyota Sequoia, operated by Rodriguez-Coss, passed the stopped school bus without slowing, the police report states.
Larsen caught up with Rodriguez-Coss and gave her a ticket for illegally passing a school bus.
In addition to the officer's report, prosecutors also presented video of the incident during a hearing before the magistrate.
Since that hearing police also got a statement from the bus driver who said she leaned on her horn as Rodriguez-Coss sped by her.
In April, Rodriguez-Coss, who recently prosecuted a U.S. Navy sailor for taking photographs of the inside of a navy submarine, filed a $300,000 federal discrimination lawsuit against U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch. She declined comment on the lawsuit.
In the suit, Rodriguez-Coss states she was forced to travel to California, Rhode Island and Vermont to prosecute capital cases while male prosecutors did not have to travel. She claims that her three children were impacted by the Sandy Hook tragedy when the Sandy Hook school was relocated near her daughters' school requiring her to remain close by to them.
The suit states her supervisors discriminated against her because of her gender and parental status and have since subjected her to a hostile work environment.

One of my favorite things to do these days is to get in the car and explore places I've never been. The husband and I just like to drive and see things. So, Monday we went down to Matagorda Bay. A beeeeeautiful place!
Before we left we ate at a local, interesting place that we've driven by many times and finally figured out their hours. It's called The Treehouse Cafe and while it's not actually a treehouse, it is a little shack tucked away in the woods. You have to walk down a path to it and whoever built it and decorated it has quite the sense of humor. While we enjoyed the uniqueness of the place we also found that the food was really quite good.
Then we headed south toward the Gulf. We crossed the Colorado River and saw a dinosaur.
And not very long later we were at Matagorda Bay.
We will definitely be making a return trip.

Turning Trash Into Cash: How To Get The Most From Your Junk Car
When your car has reached the end of its life as a transport vehicle, it can still help you out in another way: by giving you money. You can turn your old heap of trash into cash by selling it to a local junk car buyer. Junk car buyers will give you a fair price for the vehicle, and will then typically sell the individual parts for money later. Before you sell the vehicle, make sure that you prepare to get the best deal by doing the following things.
Check the Value
Check the current value of your vehicle online before you try to sell it to a junk car buyer. Get the Canadian Black Book value for the vehicle, making sure to choose the "Average Asking Price" option, followed by the "Poor/Not Operational" option. While you might not get precisely the value quoted in the Black Book, this is at least a general guideline that you can use, and it gives you an amount to shoot for in negotiations.
Obtain the Vehicle Title
You must be the legal owner of the vehicle before you can sell it to a junk car buyer. Make sure that you have the vehicle title on hand, and be prepared to provide proof of your identity before the junk car buyer will accept the vehicle. You will sign the vehicle title over to the junk car buyer at the time of the sale.
Get Quotes From Buyers
Contact at least a few different junk car buyers in your area to see how the offers compare. You may even want to try junk car buyers in other parts of the province. Prices will typically be quite similar, but you may get lucky and find an offer that makes it well worth the time you spent tracking it down.
Call For Vehicle Pickup
While not all companies will do so, many of them will offer junk car removal. This can save you considerable time and money, since you would have to tow the vehicle to the junkyard yourself otherwise.
Don't forget to clean out the car completely before the junk car buyer arrives, as this will be your last chance to collect any stray belongings that you may have left behind. Once your junk car buyer arrives, all that is left is a title exchange for a check. After that, you can truly say that you turned trash into cash!

Taking over five hundred years to build the Duomo in Milan (Milan Cathedral) is one of the most impressive buildings I've ever been in. If you've been on this site enough you'd get the sense that I love church interiors and I could have spent all day inside this place taking pictures of it. The great thing about it is that they actually allow it. As long as you pay the photography fee of five Euros they didn't seem to mind all of my HDRing that at points took two or three minutes for each set of shots given how dark the interior was. Of course I didn't try to take out my travel tripod but I did have the camera setup on a greenpod and also a GorillaPod but as long as I had my bracelet on showing I made my donation they weren't opposed to me firing away.
Photo of the Day – Interior of Il Duomo – Milan, Italy
The interior of the Milan Cathedral is expansive and their are fifty-two very large pillars (one for each week) supporting the massive ceiling above. Also notable in this picture is the red dot above the altar in the distance. This is the spot where (supposedly) one of the nails from Jesus crucifixion was placed when they were building it. Many Catholics make the pilgrimage to this church just to see this nail.

Stags' manager Steve Evans has challenged his players to prove their worth in the next four weeks.
The manager has been in the post just under a fortnight and has overseen two wins and a defeat during his short tenure as he assesses the players at his disposal.
And the 54-year-old believes the time between when he started the role and the opening of the January transfer window is a 'fair period' to be able to assess the players' capabilities.
"We said to the players when we came in we'd assess them over November and December. It's a very fair period to be able to work with 19/20 players and just ascertain who's going to be good enough," Mr Evans said at this morning's news conference.
"I think there are certain areas where we will definitely strengthen and then there are others where we're saying 'come on lads, show us a reason not to'.
"There will be two categories as far as which is quite simple and I'm using the great Sir Alex Ferguson's words which are: yes, they're good enough to go forward - well, that's 'tablets of stone', they're good enough; no, they're not, that's 'tablets of stone'; and as a management team you have to take the approach to the maybes, the maybes are not good enough because there's doubts."
The former Rotherham United manager says he is already looking at areas where he can strengthen the squad in January and the boss and his coaching staff have already began scouting different players.
"We were out last night, both Paul Raynor and myself at separate matches. Our scouting staff have been out over the last week or so and we'll continue to work diligently.
"I've had conversations with a Championship boss today and one in the Premier League about possibilities with players. We're going to monitor them as well. Gone are the days where you can look at players over a game or two.
"It's different if they're experienced [English] Football League players and you've seen them many times but especially the younger generation, if you've looked at them over a game or two, it's maybe not enough."
Stags have a break in their Sky Bet League Two schedule this weekend with the Emirates FA Cup second round taking place and Evans says it is an opportunity to look at some of the players on the periphery of the squad.
"We've got a [behind] closed doors match planned for this week which is great for us because it'll give us the opportunity to look at some of the lads that have only been having piecemeal off the bench or looking at them in training. Nothing can beat a game where you play against another side when they've got players playing that want to be in their first team."
Finally, the boss confirmed that former first team coach Richard Cooper has returned to the club in an academy role.
"He's coming in as part of the academy and really we're looking at someone who knows what's happening below the first team and someone who knows what's happening at the first team.
"Coops is a good guy. We've known him many years. We've come up against him often enough, and we had a chat with him and he seemed very receptive in the very early days to taking a role and he's thought it through and made it very easy. He said he'd love to be a part of it, so let's get him in there [at the academy] for six or eight weeks then we can define an actual specific role for Richard and make sure we're all happy with it."

Everyone loves great photography. Whether you're working in the travel industry or you just want to improve your Instagram, chances are you'd like to be able to take better photos. While the quality and price of your camera isn't the be all, end all, having a reliable travel camera can make a huge difference in the quality of your travel photography. Not only will a reliable travel camera improve the quality if your shots, but it can also increase the variety of shots that you take, whether that be via a telephoto lens, an action cam, or a drone.
If you're looking to get serious about improving your travel photography, it might be time to properly invest in the gear that you take with you. In this blog post, we will share some of our favorite travel cameras to help you get the most out of your photos and level up your travel photography skills.
Already know what type of camera you want? Just click any of the links below to jump directly to that recommendation:
The Best Travel Photography Cameras of 2019
This is the most convenient way to snap travel photos. While it is the most limiting option when it comes to manual control, the quality of smartphone cameras has improved by leaps and bounds so you can take top-quality pictures with some smartphones these days. If you just want the convenience of a small travel camera, here are our top suggestions:
Pixel 2 (Android): Google's Pixel 2 is a beast when it comes to mobile photography. It offers full manual control, a super f/1.8 aperture lens, the option to shoot in RAW file format, optical image stabilization, and even pretty good performance in low light.
iPhone X or XS (Apple): Any iteration of the iPhone X is going to be the best choice and of similar quality to the Pixel 2. Since iPhone X's are still brand new, they are quite expensive. If the X is above your budget, anything from the iPhone 7 and up will have a camera that is suitable for basic travel photography.
Point and Shoot/Compact Cameras
The next step up from smartphones are point-and-shoot or compact cameras. These can pack a much better photographic punch while still add a level of convenience far greater than bulkier (but more complex) DSLR or mirrorless cameras. If you're looking for a camera that is convenient and small, but gives you some options then this is the type of camera you'll be looking for. Here are some suggestions to get you started:
Sony RX 100 VI: Sony's RX 100 VI is generally considered as the best in its class. It has a much larger sensor than its competitors' models which means you'll get a much better and higher-quality image when you're out shooting. That comes at a price, though, as the VI is not cheap. For something similar but more affordable, check out previous versions (like the RX 100 V) as they will be similar in quality but just a little bit cheaper.
Canon Powershot Elph 190 IS: If you're on a budget, this will likely be the compact camera for you. The image quality isn't amazing, but It will get the job done. It's small and convenient, offers a 10x optical zoom, and has basic image stabilization.
Canon Powershot G9X Mark II: The Powershot falls in between the above two options in price, though it's much closer to the RX 100 VI than the Elph 190 IS in quality. For the price, you can expect top-notch battery life, a rugged construction that is great for traveling, and Wi-Fi (which is also very convenient when you're on the road).
DSLR Cameras
When you think of a bulky, professional camera, chances are you're thinking of a DSLR. While they are larger in size, they also come with much more options for manual control and customization. If you want to have more input into how your pictures are composed, these are the cameras for you. While there are many options on the market at all sorts of price points, here is our recommendation:
Canon EOS 6D Mark II: With a touchscreen, improved autofocus, and more megapixels, the EOS 6D II is an amazing camera. Professional photographer Laurence Norah, who teaches our travel photography course, uses the Mark I version of the camera and highly recommends the newer iteration. This camera is one of the lightest SLRs with a full-frame sensor, and it also has both a GPS and built-in Wi-Fi, two awesome features for the traveling photographer.
Mirrorless Cameras
Lighter and faster than your standard DSLR, mirrorless cameras are great for travelers looking for a less-bulky camera but who still want high-quality images. They are also great for video, though the tradeoff is that there are usually less lens options available. If you're looking to invest in your photography but don't want something as heavy as a DSLR, this is the option for you. Some suggested cameras are:
Panasonic GX7 or GX8: With a 16MP four thirds sensor, 4K video, touch screen, and Wi-Fi, the GX7 has everything you need for successful shooting with a mirrorless camera (and the GX8 is even better!).
Sony Alpha 6300 or A7R III: If you're on a budget but want to get your foot in the door, the a6300 is the camera for you. For someone with a higher skill level (and significantly higher budget), the A7R III is a top-notch choice, offering a full-frame sensor, super-fast processing, a secondary SD slot, and improved battery life.
Fuji X-T2: With an electronic viewfinder, flip-out screen, a secondary SD slot, and improved autofocus, this is a great mirrorless choice for anyone wanting a smaller camera but who still wants full manual control.
Canon EOS M100: If you're on a budget, this is a great mirrorless camera for beginners. The autofocus is relatively quick, you'll get a 24.2-megapixel APS-C sensor as well as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. If you're looking for a great entry-level camera, this is it.
Nikon Coolpix B700: Nikon has an excellent reputation for superzooms, and this model has a crazy 60x optical zoom. It's a good value option with positive reviews across the board. If you want an all-in-one camera with scope for more control over your photography, this is the camera for you!
Action Cams and Drones
GoPro Hero 7: While action cameras aren't the best primary cameras, they are great tools to have in your travel photography arsenal. These rugged cameras are perfect for getting the shot in environments where any other camera just wouldn't suffice (under water, skydiving, white water rafting, etc.). The Hero 7 is the newest GoPro camera and comes with improved stabilization, higher image quality, and much better audio. If the GoPro 7 is too pricey, anything from the GoPro 4 and up will be sufficient for capturing those epic action shots.
DJI Mavic 2: Drones are becoming a common component in many a travel photographer's kit. They are great for capturing unique angles as well as awesome travel footage. While the drone market is growing by the day, the Mavic 1 and 2 are the top of their class (with the Mavic 2 being the newest and most advanced). While the Mavic 2 is greatly superior to its predecessor, the Mavic 1 will still get you those epic shots and is a perfect drone for beginners (plus, it's cheaper!).
Regardless of whether you buy a smartphone, point-and-shoot, mirrorless, or DSLR, you're going to need to always be learning new skills and actively working to improve your travel photography. Whether you're looking to start a career in the travel industry, start a travel blog, or just step up your Instagram, by constantly honing your skills and improving your craft you'll be able to level up your photography skills in no time. All you need to do is grab your camera and head out the door!

To Serve Others
By Rev. Robert A. Crutchfield
Short of salvation itself perhaps the greatest gift God ever gave us was each other. The reason I say this is because God put us all here so we could serve each other. Not serve in the sense of being slaves to each other, but rather to reinforce and empower each other. We are all interconnected and for very good reasons. Look at what the Bible says about our connectedness "so that there won't be divisions in the body and so the parts might have mutual concern for each other. If one part suffers, all the parts suffer with it; if one part gets the glory, all the parts celebrate with it. You are the body of Christ and parts of each other." 1 Corinthians 12:25-27 (CEB) Notice what it says about how we are to suffer together, and celebrate together. We are not meant to be separate but part of one mutually supporting whole.
Not not any one of us can solve every problem for every person. This is why there is more than a few of us. So that each of us will have the help we need at hand when we need it. Of course we sometimes are blind to the help that is right at our fingertips ! God often makes provision for our needs through the people around us.
What is interesting is we are being called to selflessness, but in many ways service is as much about us as it is about those we serve. Service to others can bring about a great feeling of happiness, and satisfaction ! Albert Schweitzer certainly knew about service. He served others as both a physician and a minister. He had this to say on the topic of service, and happiness " I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who will have sought and found how to serve." I find it interesting that he makes a point of saying your destiny does not change the fact that true happiness comes only from serving others.
Serving others is our way of bringing God's love into the daily lives of those around us. Now I'm not saying you have to be a medical missionary to Africa like Dr. Schweitzer. For many of us God looks only for us to serve our families, and those immediately around us. Some are called to greater things, some to smaller, but they are all equally important ! We are all uniquely suited to the service God has called us to. Look to what people God has placed in your lives. Look to the talents he has made you a master at. These are your clues to when, where, and how God has chosen you to serve.
Service is not a once or twice a lifetime thing. It should be an ongoing part of our lives as Christians and who we are. Ponder what Charles Wesley had to say about the importance of service and its role in our lives, "Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can. " So promise God and yourself from this day forward to make service a part of all that you do.

IF THE closest you've ever come to an aquatic pig is ordering bacon, you probably haven't been to the Bahamas' Exuma Cays.
Around these parts — which include insular postcodes belonging to IMDbers like Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio, Faith Hill and Tim McGraw — feral pigs will actually creep out from behind the wild bush and swim out into the ocean alongside you. Seriously.
And we're not talking "sea pigs." We're talking pig pigs, who take to the water surprisingly unsinkably — like big, pink, hoofed buoys.
They're cute, they're friendly and, after an afternoon spent bodysurfing with you instead of rolling around in their own you-know-what, they're probably the cleanest porkers on the whole dang planet.
The wild swimming pigs of The Bahamas
Legend has it that sailors dropped pigs off on this island in the Bahamas and never returned, now they rule the island!
They even make a cameo in Pitbull's Timber video, overshadowing poor Ke$ha.
Want to master the art of hoggie paddling? All you have to do is mosey on over to Grand Exuma — the largest cay of the bunch — and check in at the AAA Four Diamond Award-winning, 78-villa Grand Isle Resort in Emerald Bay.
Its $650-per-night "True Exuma Experience" package (minimum three nights required) includes accommodation, breakfast at their Palapa Grill and a half-day excursion to swim with your very own porcine plunger — let's call him Moinkel Phelps? (OK, let's not.)

There are two things I don't discuss: politics and religion. I don't know enough about either to sound intelligent; you can't trust politics anyway; and religion makes me sink into my seat with sweaty palms. It seems without fail you're bound to offend someone at the mention of either.
For me this is big, so I'm going out on a limb (or should I say 'leap of faith') and talking about this as best I can...
I've memorized one bible verse in my whole life (John 3:16) and that's because I went to church camp once with a childhood friend. My grandmother used to sprinkle the wheels of our car with holy water and my aunt, who's also my Godmother, was a nun in the Sisters of St. Joseph's community for 33 years. Then you have my dad whose church is on the golf course. There's also my brother who went to service one Sunday in his pjs. I'll be honest, I hated going to religious ed. classes as a kid; all I remember about my first communion is that I wore my mom's dress from her first communion; and what stands out most from getting confirmed is that I had to carry the cross and my slip almost fell to my feet as I walked down the center aisle at the start of mass. But when I turned 16 I started driving myself to church. It felt like the right thing to do, though I didn't know why, and even as a lifelong Catholic the formalities of mass are still sometimes confusing.
Just last year I purchased my first bible thanks to the urging of my dear friend, Cherie. And it's also because of Cherie that I go to BSF Bible Study every week. Yes, bible study. Or as I affectionately call it to my friends and family who are leery of the concept: church group. I started going last fall because I needed to get out of the house, it gave me an excuse to see my friend, and yes, I wanted to learn more about the bible. After all, I do enjoy history. I also liked the fellowship and the exposure to outside care it afforded my boys. We studied the book of Isaiah and it was eye opening and hard. It was a lot of effort to go and some weeks I stomped my feet to the car, but I persisted. This year in class we're studying the book of Acts and have gotten into Hebrews too, both of which are much more uplifting and encouraging.
I now find myself reflecting on things throughout the week and it also 'keeps me in check' as I navigate the curvy road of being a mom. I've grown more comfortable in sharing answers (this year's group makes that easy...they're a lively group of women of various ages from all walks of life), but gain the most from hearing others' thoughts because it makes the bible's teachings relevant to life today. Some week's lessons hit home more than others and to be totally honest there are aspects of Christian beliefs that I'm not 100% sure of. But I'm usually able to take away a word to keep in mind each week that generally sums up the theme from the assigned chapters. Words like pride, judgement, gratitude, faith, goodwill, and most often patience. These and many others are the types of morals I want to instill in my kids and using the church as a moral foundation from which to grow is where Joe and I do indeed see eye to eye on in terms of how church will play a role in our family's life.
I still have a lot of growing and learning to do and I still can't talk God things without getting pretty squirmy. But I just wrote this and I've made some dear friends along the way that I've shared more than I ever thought I would and I'm definitely no worse for the wear. When I say I'm blessed I have a deeper understanding of the word and it's not just luck. When I pray I'm specific and don't just ask for things, but give thanks too.
So where is all of this coming from? Since I stopped teaching I miss using my brain, feeling productive, and being part of something bigger. Church group has afforded the boys and me a sense of community; provided me with volunteer opportunities to help in the children's program; and compelled me to DO something to give back, give more of myself, and share with others what I've learned. I am in awe of so many of my friends who juggle family, friends, service, and careers and never seem to let anything fall. I think of the countless times I go to Target to swipe my card to pay for more stuff even though I was just complaining of all the clutter around our house. It's time I give instead of always take, because despite how busy I say I am; how tight I say money is; or how much I might need a new pair of shoes...I'm not, it isn't, and I don't. So when my neighbor down the street brought a cause to my attention that hit close to home I paid attention. This isn't just a 'do-a-good-holiday-deed', it's an effort I hope I can help with for a long time.
Capital Childcare provides daily care to some of Richmond's neediest kids. Capital Diaper Bank started...(info taken from their website) after the childcare staff witnessed children arriving on Monday mornings, after a weekend at home, with raw bottoms, infections or other infirmities. Further investigation revealed that these children were not being changed regularly at home due to an inadequate supply of diapers. A shortage of diapers can have a severe adverse impact on a child's well being. Parents without sufficient resources often allow children to wear diapers too long or try to clean and reuse disposable diapers, putting children at risk for rashes, staph and other infections and further serious health issues. The likelihood of abuse increases when a child is in a household facing the stresses of poverty and increases even more when that child cries due to a soiled diaper and resultant health issues. Low-income families cannot take advantage of free or subsidized childcare if they cannot afford enough diapers for their children while there. Without childcare, these parents are less able to attend work or school on a consistent basis, which in turn leads to increased economic instability and a continuation of the poverty cycle. In addition, funding was drastically cut at the center recently and they've had to reduce their staff and can no longer provide "weekend bags of food." For some children the only meals they eat are when they're at the childcare center, which of course is only Monday thru Friday.
Want to help? Email me (email@example.com) and I'd be happy to pick up your contributions if you're nearby.
There are four options:
1) donate diapers (any size is appreciated, but sizes 4, 5, and 6 are often needed most)
1) donate diapers (any size is appreciated, but sizes 4, 5, and 6 are often needed most)
2) donate non-perishable snack food, which will help with daily afternoon snack time (i.e. granola bars, crackers, pop tarts, pretzels, juice boxes, fruit cups, etc.)
3) donate a bag of dry food items items to provide 6 meals over the course of a weekend (i.e. a box of pasta and sauce, cereal, oatmeal, easy mac, soup, peanut butter, bread, jelly, canned goods, pop tarts, etc.)
4) make a check payable to Capital Diaper Bank and mail to P.O. Box 4255
Richmond, VA 23220 or visit their website, click on 'How You Can Help,' and donate online through PayPal
So in the spirit of goodwill, taking a leap of faith, and giving more of myself, God bless:) (yep, typed with sweaty palms, nervous heart, and all)

Resentment. It's a loaded word. If you mention the word to a psychotherapist, you'll probably be told that it's harmful and that you "shouldn't" be resentful. It's OK, they say, to be angry, disappointed or depressed, but don't be resentful. I'm here to say that as a caregiver for someone who has MS, I'm damned resentful! I resent the fact that my wife, for no apparent reason, is saddled with this disease. I resent the fact that "the best years of my life" have been overtaken with caregiver's responsibilities, preventing me from doing so many things that I want to do. I resent the fact that my friends and coworkers so casually do the things I'd like to do and probably take their life situations for granted. I resent the fact that many non-caregivers romanticize the chronic caregiver role. I resent hearing (yes, I really have heard this) caregiving for a loved one with a chronic disease is like preparing chicken soup for one's spouse when he or she has a bad cold, just for a longer period of time. I resent the financial impact my wife's MS has had on us.
My resentment is focused. I don't resent my wife. I don't resent the people who don't and can't understand. I don't resent the people who have the freedom to do what they want with their time. Bud do I resent my wife's MS and the life situation it has put me in? You better believe I do.
There. I said it. I don't think it was harmful. To the contrary, it felt good to just to put it out there. Do you feel resentful?

Buyers ready to hit the ground shopping for next year's hot trends will likely be wondering which colors will be important to their collections. According to Pantone Color Institute executive director Leatrice Eiseman, they should keep symmetry in mind when approaching their new hues. "The season is a new look at definitions of harmony, proportion and balance. There's an irreverence about color. The way colors are combined, the hues, the shades and tones, is inspiring." A focus on color may also play into some design trends currently in the work. "A huge percentage of women are saying that, even though they like to look at crazy designs and very high heels, at the end of the day they want comfort, stability, quality and value. You can show them haute couture, and it may bring them into a store, but they'll buy what's comfortable. One way they can get crazy, though, is with design and color."
Here are some closer looks at three of the palettes that will be important to spring/summer 2011.
"This is a palette that works off of neutrals," says Eiseman. "That's the practical aspect of it. We'll see a deep graphite blue color and grays are the neutrals, but overall this palette relies on the hotter hues to infuse it with energy. People are being more practical, but they still want excitement. You can bring in yellow, orange or red, which gives energy to a more neutral shade. A good word to use for this palette is vibrant."
"To me, this is one of the most interesting palettes, because it's about the use of complementary colors. It really makes things vibrate. Still, a lot of the colors come out of nature. That's the great instigator for color combinations. We've been on a nature kick for many years now, and we're seeing that it's not a fad. That's a given. So if you tell people you're using sustainable materials, but the product also has value and quality, you have lots going for you. In nature, you may see many different shades, but they do work together. If you look at a dahlia, the center is often a complement to the petals around it."
"This palette isn't as vibrant as Complementary or Focus. It's more sophisticated and quiet, with colors equally divided between warm and cool shades. There are some sophisticated nuances. What this palette tells us, which is important to remember, is that it's not all about warm tones for spring and summer."
Leatrice Eiseman is executive director of the Pantone Color Institute and heads the Eiseman Center for Color Information and Training. Pantone is known worldwide as the standard language for accurate color communication, from designer to manufacturer to retailer to customer, across a variety of industries

Disruption is cracking wealth management's fortress
CHICAGO — Advisors need to prepare for more disruption ahead. The wealth management industry has been protected against forces of change for too long, Schwab's top executives say.
"When we're building, there's no more building the fort. We're building tents, so we can keep moving," Bernie Clark, executive vice president of Schwab Advisor Services, said at Schwab's Impact conference in Chicago this week. "We have to keep on that message, because technologies are moving quickly. [Schwab is] on par or ahead, but I think this time, there are going to be some firms left behind."
Joining Clark on a panel about the future of advisor technology was Neesha Hathi, chief digital officer at Charles Schwab, and Ed Obuchowski, senior vice president of Advisor Services Technology Solutions.
Hathi relied on a similar analogy to describe the reason Schwab has invested millions of dollars in technological upgrades, such as e-authorization workflows, and launched its robo advisor and hybrid advice services, which have now gathered $25 billion in assets collectively.
"We often think of this industry as being protected because we have this regulatory barrier and we have human advisors," Hathi said. "But if you look at the industry in another way, this is an industry that's considered opaque. It's an industry that people don't really understand. It's an industry where everyone has pretty good profit margins.
"If you pull all that together, it's an industry where we may see disruption, and we want to be able to prepare our clients and our advisors for that."
Obuchowski acknowledged competition's role in accelerating that change, not just from fintech disruptors but also from other custodians and asset managers increasingly seeking a footing in the advisor technology market space.
"Each of the major custodians are obviously spending a tremendous amount of their investments to offer the right technologies," he said. "Our approach is, we're in an open architecture world. [Advisors] are slightly unique in one way or another. You realize as much as you would love to, you may not be able to meet every single need."
But financial service competition doesn't worry Clark, he explained after the panel.
"I personally worry about the disruptors, which could be the Googles, the Amazons," Clark told Financial Planning. "[Wirehouses] will say they're fee-only — that's wonderful — but they'll have the encumbrances of the architecture and the products they'll continue to have to move."
The legal and government hurdles preventing fintech giants from entering wealth management won't last forever, he said.
"At some point, the Justice Department is going to regulate those firms. And at that point, regulation is no longer going to be a barrier. They then just have to make the decision that [wealth management] is something they value in the future… But when they do; it's going to be dominoes."
'At some point, the Justice Department is going to regulate [Google and Amazon]. And at that point, regulation is no longer going to be a barrier.'
"Yes, they are going to come with great technologies, but our whole model is predicated on the great experience of our people," Clark added. "AI can replace some [advice], but it can't replace it all."
Clark noted a proliferation of business models in the fintech space trying to innovate on traditional wealth management offerings, but expressed doubts about their motives.
"They are developing technology, but to what end?" Clark asked. "Some of these models are being developed for the needs of the companies."
Clark added the RIA model "has learned over the past decade where they thought they had value-added services, that's [not the case] anymore. To think, 25 years ago if you told someone portfolio management is only going to be 25% of your value proposition, they'd probably have thrown you out of their office."
AI, HSAs, commissions and cybersecurity are top of mind for advisors attending at the firm's annual Impact conference. The CEO makes his predictions.November 15
The technology underpinning Alexa can automate meetings, update clients and even deliver advice.August 16
The firm's 20-basis-point take will drop, says CEO Walt Bettinger.September 28
But in that same period, Clark said, such technology has enabled advisor freedom unlike ever before.
"Technology has made that transition to independence easy. I can remember a decade ago, you had to make some serious choices. It was hard. There was work done still manually within the office, and maybe you had to leave behind some capability if you went out on your own.
"That doesn't happen anymore. You can do everything, plus you can choose your own technologies if you want. You can align yourself with like firms and your technologies can be similar. You can bring greater scale to what you're doing. The teams we're seeing now exceed $1 billion in assets, sometimes greater than $10 billion. They've recognized the power that's been unleashed."
That's the innovation challenge to wealth management's business model that is already causing disruption in the wirehouse industry, Clark added, noting the teetering state of the Broker Protocol.
"People don't want captive product, they want open architecture," he said. "I'm not saying it's evil; I'm just saying it's reality. Those models are going to be forced to change."

Tom and Cathi Cox Boniol proudly announce the winners of the second annual Boniol Bulldog Beginnings Scholarship.
Designed to award two $1,000 scholarship to graduates of the Lincoln Parish School District, one pursuing studies in a STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) field and another entering education, categories evaluated for the scholarship included GPA, ACT score, academic coursework, extracurricular participation, leadership positions, and service experiences.
The scholarship was presented at the Cedar Creek School Super Omnia Banquet at the Ruston Civic Center on May 14, 2019, by Chapter Representatives Mary-Belle Tuten and Julie Shrubb.
Olivia Cuthbert is the daughter of Christy and Shane Mabou and Jay Cuthbert and was recommended for this scholarship by Chapter AO of Ruston, Louisiana.
Question: I have worked in the corporate world all my career. I've paid the maximum possible into Social Security most of that time. My wife, on the other hand, has been a teacher in a private school for her career. We both got our Social Security estimates online the other day and I could not believe how close they were. My income was multiples of hers, but she's getting nearly half of what I'm getting. How does that work?
Answer: The deck is not exactly stacked in your favor.
Retirement today is active — a time to reinvent yourself, pursue your passions, or do the work that you find especially rewarding.
The freedom to do that requires careful planning, says Will Larson, Retirement Planning Strategist for Wells Fargo Advisors. Here, he provides his top three ideas to consider when it comes to preparing for active, fulfilling retirement years.
If you've noticed an increase in bicycle-related events lately, it may be because May is recognized as "Bike Month" — and some cities even observe a specific Bike Week. Of course, bicycling is good exercise and an environmentally friendly method of transportation, but it can also teach us some lessons about investing.
Here are a few to consider:
While it's easy to think of Memorial Day as a weekend to fill with as much fun time as possible, it's important to remember the holiday's history is about honoring those who died in all of America's wars.
Memorial Day grew out of the Civil War. By the late 1860s, cities and towns across the country had begun holding springtime tributes to fallen soldiers, often decorating their graves with flowers.
Let's call it the "War of Food Label Dates."
You see, my wife is more than willing to throw out food if the food label date is coming within weeks of its so-called expiration date.
And let's stress "socalled."
More than once I've walked into our kitchen to find our pantry emptied and all kinds of cans and boxes dumped into the trash before that "so-called" expiration date.
VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis urged foreign correspondents last weekend to humbly use the power of the press to search for the truth and give voice to the voiceless, saying journalism is an important tool to counter the hatred, prejudice and fake news.
In an audience with the Foreign Press Association in Rome, Francis also urged journalists to not fall prey to sending click-bait headlines and half-reported stories, saying errors can not only misrepresent the truth but damage entire communities.
My buddy and fellow outdoor writer/ photographer, John Flores, lives down in the Morgan City area of south Louisiana. Some of the photos he's been passing along recently via FaceBook have had me mesmerized. John has been making daily visits to a wildlife preserve near his home and capturing stunning images of song birds; those that have spent the winter in Central America, made the non-stop flight across the Gulf and stopped over for rest and food before taking off again for the northern U.S. where they rear their young and spend the summer.

Update: Update: Pakistani prison asks for fresh date to hang Briton
How Pakistan government can hang Mr.Hussain when his murder conviction has already been quashed. Second when Lahore High Court already freed him and declared him non guilty earlier, how come Sharia Court found him guilty of the crimes he never committed?
Tony Blair issued a last-ditch appeal today to save a British man due to be executed in Pakistan in two weeks' time.
But the Prime Minister refused to join calls for the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall to cancel a planned royal visit to Pakistan which would coincide with the execution.
Mirza Tahir Hussain, 36, a former Territorial Army soldier originally from Leeds, faces the death penalty on November 1 for murdering a taxi driver 18 years ago.
But amid fierce objections that the conviction is unsafe, his family and a coalition of campaigners have battled against the sentence. But at Prime Minister's Questions, Mr Blair appealed to Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf to spare Hussain even though he acknowledged the president's powers were limited.

OSHA recently released educational guides concerning the dangers of working with or around fluorescent lights in your work environment. Even if you are not directly handling the bulbs such as when recycling or disposing of them in a maintenance job, you may be at more risk than you realize if a light were to break nearby.
It used to be a concern of being cut by the broken glass of a fallen light bulb but with fluorescent lights, there is the additional concern of being exposed to toxic mercury vapors which are contained in the bulbs. For this reason, it is important to report any incidents no matter how small they may seem such as in the case of a broken bulb.
All workers who are in the vicinity of fluorescent light bulbs should be made aware of the potential health risks a broken bulb may cause. In the event a bulb is broken accidentally, proper clean up protocol needs to be followed to protect the health and safety of those nearby. Protective clothing will be necessary to prevent any liquid mercury from affecting the skin and masks to prevent breathing in the toxic mercury vapors.
Employers should have policies for handling broken bulbs and employees should be trained on how to properly respond to such situations to protect themselves. For workers who are in constant contact with the bulbs as a part of their job duties, it is essential to ensure employers are accommodating their safety needs and following the guidelines of OSHA concerning the dangers of mercury.
If you have suffered health problems due to mercury contamination in your workplace, protect your rights to workers compensation benefits. Contact our office toll free at 888-799-3918 or by using our online contact form.

There is so much about Ruth Bader Ginsburg to inspire a person. I admire her greatly and deeply. If you'd like to broadcast your own admiration for the Notorious RBG herself, why don't you do it by wearing this 2.25″ pin?
Of course you can also order the pocket mirror. Justice Ginsburg once said, "So often in life, things that you regard as an impediment turn out to be great good fortune." So when you are having a bad day, or life has just got you down, look into your RBG mirror, and know that it's all going to work out for the best.

- Kenobi: "Thank you for the loan of your starfighter"
- Secura: "Don't mention it."
- ―Obi-Wan Kenobi and Aayla Secura[src]
Aayla Secura flew an Eta-2 Actis-class Jedi interceptor with blue markings for the Galactic Republic during the later years of the Clone Wars.
Aayla Secura's Eta-2 Actis-class interceptor was marked with blue striping and modified for higher maneuverability during atmospheric flight. The craft was armed with laser cannons and proton torpedos, and used an astromech droid for astrogation and on-board repairs.[2][1]
- "That's not his fighter—but that has to be Obi-Wan."
- ―Anakin Skywalker, to Padmé Amidala
Aayla Secura's extensively used her Eta-2 during the latter part of the Clone Wars. As a Jedi Knight, she commanded Clone troops in combat as a Republic General, yet on many intelligence-gathering missions and covert operations using her interceptor. Avoiding dogfights, she used her starfighter to protect Republic capital ships by orchestrating careful defensive formations and chaotic breaks that would throw enemy fighter screens into confusion.[1]
One such mission took her to Trigalis, where she assisted Obi-Wan Kenobi in his hunt for Asajj Ventress. Then, when the Jedi Council gave Obi-Wan permission to pursue Ventress to Naboo, Aayla lent her ship to him—along with the astromech droid assigned to her, R4-G9. Before he left, Obi-Wan promised Secura that he would bring the ship back "in one piece."[4][5]
Behind the scenesEdit
While this ship has been officially identified canonically as Aayla Secura's interceptor, she has never actually been shown flying it in the Star Wars: Obsession series.[4]

With a whopping 93% of polled Americans consuming fast food at least once a week, it shouldn't come as a surprise to witness entrepreneurs claiming a stake in this remarkable business. Let's face it, fast food is a huge business in the U.S. and entrepreneurs willing to invest in this lucrative venture should be prepared to earn astronomical profits daily. If you are an entrepreneur keen on starting a restaurant in this specific line, here are a few pointers that you might want to consider before parting away with a huge cheque. After all, this is a business that needs utmost attention to detail and exceptional customer service just like any other.
Customize Your Product Recipe to Stand Out from Competitors
With competitors springing up on every imaginable corner in the U.S, you might want to approach a different strategy and carve out your own independent niche. This essentially means that you must hone your unique craft and develop your product to perfection and provide unrivaled taste. Preferably, focus on obtaining fresh and locally sourced ingredients to accentuate your flavor while also being creative with various toppings to develop your specific style. As the business owner, be sure to note down each critical step for future reference.
Harness Your Production Techniques to Resonate with Your Brand
Suffice to say, developing an impressive concept isn't sufficient enough unless complemented with an equally remarkable brand to attain your vision. By settling on a takeout pizza restaurant union ky, you can rest assured knowing that you will spend less space and equipment to run the business on optimal efficacy. Nevertheless, this strategy is often bogged down by food quality and pricing as the only sales pitches to appeal to customers. Having settled on this option, it's imperative to divert all efforts into strengthening these selling points and making a killing at the sales department.
As the restaurant owner, the final buck ultimately falls with you. This requires understanding a particular niche that you're excellent at and connecting with customers. Whether your efforts are tailored to attract millennials or upscale professionals, ensure that everything is set up beforehand to align with your goals.
Purchase Sufficient and Ideal Equipment
Thriving in this business cannot be realized without the support of efficient equipment. With the essential pieces of equipment in mind, it's imperative to stock up on ovens, preparation supplies, dough preparation tools, refrigerators, and serving tools. As a novice in the business, you might want to seek recommendations on ideal equipment to buy to harness optimal value in return.
Food Safety Concerns
With this business, complying with Food Safety concerns should be a top priority. This essentially means that your business must adhere to the stringent health code standards before you can obtain a food business license. Not only that, you must be prepared to go the extra mile by maintaining such standards to precision. From hiring certified food handlers to possessing a certified food manager, each regulation is aimed at enforcing unrivaled hygiene while discharging business duties.

MI Big Green Gym
Tuesday, June 4, 2013
This summer the Michigan Recreation and Park Association (MRPA), in partnership with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan (BCBSM) and the Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) present the MI Big Green Gym Program [formerly Park & Read].
The program is designed to promote overall well-being and a healthy lifestyle through use of parks and recreation facilities. Michigan has some of the country's premier parks, which, along with local recreation departments, provide unique and fun ways to stay active and spend time with family and community. MI Big Green Gym is comprised of participating state parks, local parks, and three challenge communities - Grand Traverse County, Kalamazoo, and Marquette. The Blues Community Challenge is a "healthy" competition to see which location can log the most activity and win big for their parks. Michigan really is a big green gym - with endless opportunities to get active.
Thanks to support from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and the Library of Michigan, free passes into MI Big Green Gym are available through nearly 500 libraries around Michigan. More than 100 state parks are available for you to explore – many offering free Rec 101 programs. Choose your state park by visiting the Michigan DNR Parks and Trails Directory!
Passes are valid for seven days after check-out and are good for one free day into any state park or recreation area, or at the KLR Splashpad in Oxford Township, a universally accessible facility that is a hit with kids of all ages and abilities.
How the program works:
- Patrons must have an Ypsilanti District Library card to check-out a park pass.
- Park passes are good for seven days from check-out and can be used at any Michigan State Park in lieu of a daily motor vehicle permit.
- You must present the certificate to the park's contact station. The pass is good for one day of the 7-day period and only covers the motor vehicle permit fee.
- The MI Big Green Gym Program will run until October 1, 2013.
- Passes are available at all Ypsilanti District Library locations now.

The Public Life 101 webinar series is a free, three-part introduction on collecting and storytelling with public life data.
In April 2018, Gehl Institute hosted its first webinar series: Public Life 101. Over the course of three sessions, we offered an introduction to our tools for studying public life, the philosophy that inspires them, and methods for telling stories with the data. Participants left with a better sense of how to carry out surveys of public spaces, along with helpful tips for organizing volunteers. Recordings of past webinars are accessible below; future webinars to be announced.
101: What is public life? How do we measure it?
At Gehl Institute, we define public life as the social activity that takes place in everyday public spaces. Supporting public life requires working across disciplines, city agencies, and power structures to achieve long-lasting change. This first session discusses the importance of public life and the open-source tools we develop to measure it. Real-world examples give participants a sense of how public life studies have led to tangible public benefits in cities across the world.
102: Introduction to public life tools
Our public life tools are free, downloadable worksheets available on our website. They can be applied to all sorts of projects in public spaces, helping one gain insight into the quality of the built environment and its ability to support social activity. This second session offers instructions for using the public life tools, as well as recommendations for organizing and executing a survey with volunteers.
103: Telling stories with public life data
In our third installation of Public Life 101, we discussed how to analyze and tell stories about findings. These stories can help persuade people who allocate resources (city staff, foundations, etc.), spark community enthusiasm for a local project, and much more. In addition to Gehl Institute staff, this webinar featured Jennifer Goold from the Neighborhood Design Center, who discussed her impact evaluation of the YNOT Lot in Baltimore, MD, as well as "Perspectives," a poem by Michelle Antoinette Nelson, aka LOVE the Poet.
