As if planning one ceremony isn't enough work, imagine planning 3! And ladies - imagine getting to wear not one, not two, not three, but four - yes FOUR different outfits on the day of your wedding... This is all what Jess and Danny did for their multi-cultural Chinese, Korean, and American ceremonies and reception. As you can imagine, it was quite a full and exciting day.
The morning immediately jump-started with the Chinese tea ceremony, where the Bride and Groom formally serve tea to the family members and receive gifts of money and jewelry. Then, following the Tea ceremony, Jess and Danny were whisked off into a side room to be dressed for the Korean Paebaek Ceremony. The attire for this event is incredibly detailed and tedious to put on, so the Bride and Groom both needed quite a few hands to help them get dressed. Once dressed though, I felt like we all had been taken back in time to a much more traditional (and frankly, really cool) time period somewhere deep in Korea. The intricate headdresses, robes, and accessories kept me busy with the photographs for quite a while. The ceremony itself involves bowing down low on the ground before the family members, catching of dates/chestnuts, and the groom giving the bride a piggyback ride as a gesture of promise of his everlasting devotion and love for her throughout their life. Now isn't that sweet?? I loved it, and so did everyone else.
Last but not least, the American ceremony, the one we all know and love, took place at a quaint little church surrounded by trees in the Portola Valley. These two were all smiles as they said their vows, lit their candle, and finally became Mr. and Mrs.
Jess and Danny were amazing to photograph - a couple clearly head over heels in love! I noticed that immediately during their engagement session, and they proved no less in love on the day of their wedding. I couldn't have asked for a more fun and easy-going couple to photograph and I'm so happy that they chose me to document their wonderful event.

Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum is quickly reclaiming a position in the heavyweight boxing business.
For years, Arum has stayed away from the biggest division in boxing - but now he co-promotes WBO champion Joseph Parker, has a deal with Andy Ruiz, and recently signed Bryant Jennings.
Jennings (19-2, 10 KOs) will make his Top Rank debut on Saturday night, when he makes his return in Lincoln, Nebraska as part of the Terence Crawford vs. Julius Indongo undercard.
If Jennings dispatches of journeyman Daniel Martz (15-4-1, 12 KOs) in style, then Arum is planning another tuneup bout for him in November or December.
As far as 2018, Arum would like to match him against Parker (23-0, 18 KOs) in an ESPN televised fight - if Parker manages to defeat his mandatory challenger Hughie Fury (20-0, 10 KOs) on September 23 in Manchester, England.
"We were doing a fight in New York and Antonio and James Prince (who co-manages Jennings along with attorney Josh Dubin) brought Jennings to see me," Arum told veteran scribe Bernard Fernandez. "I really took a liking to him. He's a very intelligent guy, a clean-living guy. We think that if he goes back on the board, he can develop into a real threat. There's four titles out there. We can make a run with Jennings in the short term for one of those titles.
"Of course, for (Parker-Jennings) to happen, Parker has to get past Hughie Fury. But if we're successful with Parker, and successful with Bryant, I would match them in the spring on ESPN."
Jennings believes a deal to fight Parker would be a very easy one to make.
"You would think so [that a Parker fight can be made]," Jennings said. "Making that fight, to me, is very possible. Don't be surprised if you see that fight in the next six months to a year."

Most of the time, I'm a defense contractor with Computer Sciences Corporation working at the Integrated Team Solutions Facility (ITSFAC) near Quantico Marine Corps Base. I am now the Lead Enterprise Architect supporting the Marine Corps Systems Command in the development of the enterprise architecture for their version of the Distributed Command Ground/Surface System (DCGS-MC).
We moved from Hawaii to Northern Virginia in 2004 where I started as a data modeler on the DoD Business Management Modernization Program in Crystal City, Virginia working on the DoD Business Enterprise Architecture. BMMP has since become a significant factor in DoD business operations and has "morphed" into the DoD Business Transformation Agency and, just as the program changed into an agency, my job changed as well. When I left BTA in September 2008, I was the Architecture and Transformation Support Team Lead responsible for BEA Development and Tools Support, Configuration Management, and Architecture Verification. While there, I also developed several web applications used at BTA for architecture development as well as performing both activity modeling and data modeling too.
When I am not working, I am an assistant scoutmaster in my son's Boy Scouts of America Troop 581, Bristow, Virginia.
Prior to this project, I supported the Chief Information Officer at the Headquarters, Commander, U.S. Pacific Command (HQ USPACOM) at Camp H.M. Smith, Marine Corps Base, Hawaii as the Information Capabilities Engineer (Webmaster on Steroids).
While we were still in Hawaii, I was also teaching computer science courses for Hawaii Pacific University (my alma mater - BSCS'91/MBA'97), coaching my keiki and their AYSO soccer teams, and assisting my son's Boy Scouts of America Troop 164, Mililani, Hawaii (not necessarily in that order)! I'm teaching again for HPU - online - it's not quite the same as in the classroom, but I'll give it more time to see how I like it.
Now, my wonderful wife, Mari, and I are attempting to survive the college years of Melissa and Matthew. All in all, they're both wonderful young adults (they're too big now to call "kids"), but there are still a few more years of maturing and growing ahead before we can declare victory! It has been a new experience for Melissa and Matthew living on the mainland, but I think that they are getting along quite well. After 17 years in Hawaii, I think that it's going to be a more difficult adjustment for me than for Mari or the kids (oops, young adults)!

WKRQ • Q102 | Jeff & Jenn Morning Show | 5:30am–10am Monday–Friday
Jenn, a native of Cuba, IL, lived in Tampa, FL, before moving to Cincinnati in 2002 to join Q102's Jeff & Jenn Morning Show. Jenn initially set her eyes on becoming a TV reporter. But that required nice clothes, primped hair and full makeup. After working at the Eastern Illinois University radio station, she decided a career in radio would be the perfect fit.
As a radio personality, Jenn has had a number of celebrity encounters, including snuggling with Jon Bon Jovi. But, if she could be invited to any musician's home for dinner, she would choose to dine with John Mayer. "I want to go to John Mayer's house, and have him play guitar and sing for me. I would just love to have (pseudo) deep meaningful conversation with him and ask all about Jennifer Aniston because I think she could be my best friend if I lived in LA," says Jenn.
She currently resides in Mason with her son Jakob and her dog, Merle. Jenn is known in Cincinnati for her work with the autism community. She serves on the board of the Ken Anderson Alliance. Their mission is to build a live, work, play community for adults with developmental disabilities. When Jenn isn't at the station, she enjoys catching up on her beauty sleep, eating and shopping.
This Is Us
Nothing shows Jenn in her element more than this video: In her closet wrapping gifts and playing light saber wars with her dad. Shot at Christmas, the whole Jeff & Jenn show share a piece of their friends and family in a Q102 version of "This Is Us."

From December 16 through December 28, 1966, the Philadelphia 76ers played seven games. Winning all seven contests, the Sixers sat atop the NBA with an overall record of 34 wins and 3 losses.
During the All-Star break in 1965, the Philadelphia 76ers traded for the awesome talent of Wilt Chamberlain. Although the team finished the season with a 40-40 record, they pushed the defending champion Boston Celtics to a seventh game in the Eastern Division Finals.
The 76ers/Nationals franchise has had a wealth of superstar, supremely talented players. Wilt Chamberlain, Moses Malone, Julius Erving, Dolph Schayes, Allen Iverson, Billy Cunningham, Charles Barkley, and on and on and on. Well, none of those players is the franchise's all-time leader in games played and points scored.
From 1957 to 1969, the Boston Celtics won 11 of the NBA's 13 championships. Their dynastic domination featured two interruptions in 1958 and 1967. The man who stood as the strong-willed roadblock to their absolute domination of the NBA in this era was Alex Hannum.
When the 1967 Philadelphia 76ers dethroned the Boston Celtics, it was a joyous victory nearly a decade in the making. From 1959 to 1966, the Boston Celtics won every single NBA title.
The 1967 Philadelphia 76ers had a squad assembled of Hall of Famers, All-Stars, role players, and men fighting for a place in the NBA. When all of their careers were said and done, every man on the roster had left a sizeable impact on professional basketball.
In the 1890s, Philadelphia was a city seemingly bursting at the seams as its population hit one million people for the first time. Irish, German, Polish, Italian, and Jewish immigrants saw the City of Brotherly Love as their haven from destitution and persecution in Europe.
This season marks the 50th anniversary for one of the greatest teams in basketball history. The 1966-67 Philadelphia 76ers were star-studded, record-breaking, and fascinating in a myriad of ways.

Following the attack, the mayor was taken to a hospital, where he underwent a five-hour-long surgery. Polish President Andrzej Duda said later that he received information, the doctors had managed to restore Adamowicz's heartbeat.
Z niedowierzaniem przyjęliśmy informację o tragicznej śmierci Prezydenta @gdansk @AdamowiczPawel. Był niezwykle sympatycznym i inteligentnym człowiekiem, przyjacielem Gminy Władysławowo. Na zawsze dla nas takim pozostanie. Rodzinie i bliskim składamy najszczersze kondolencje. pic.twitter.com/FeZ814wzid— Gmina Władysławowo (@wladyslawowopl) 14 января 2019 г.
The suspect, a 27-year-old man, left prison last month after having served a 5.5-year-long term for bank robbery. He is set to undergo a psychiatric examination, prosecutor Krzysztof Sierak told reporters earlier on Monday.
"We believe his mental stability raises doubts. Two psychiatrists will examine him", Sierak said.
A representative from the Polish penitentiary service has told Sputnik that the suspect had mental health problems that were detected while he was serving his prison term.
"During his prison term, closer to its end, a psychiatrist examined this person. It was detected that he was in remission of a serious [mental] disorder… This did not impede him from serving his term to the end", the representative said.
The attacker's motives have not been officially revealed yet.
The Warsaw authorities have decided to declare a three-day mourning following the mayor's death.
"Today, when we still had hope that a miracle would happen and that the mayor will survive, I asked for a meeting of representatives of the political forces. I hoped that we would go together in a march against violence in Gdansk… We decided that we would not organize marches, but if possible, we will come to the funeral and there we will give honor to the mayor Adamowicz… We decided that it [day of mourning] will be the day the family will choose as the day of the funeral," Polish President Andrzej Duda said.
Duda said during a briefing after consultations with the country's political forces that he hoped to organize a march against violence in Gdansk, but after Adamowicz died, he decided that a one-day country-wide mourning will be declared on the day of Adamowicz's funeral, the date of which is not yet determined.

Garage Brewing Co. is based out of Temecula, California and was originally an old style repair garage, where it promptly got its name. Since garages were no longer needed as frequently as they used to be, it was turned into a brewery and pizzeria. They have continued to impress us aliens with their beers and we hope they keep pumping out the delicious brews. The Tow Truck Belgian Tripel is no exception!
Appearance: A medium golden color, mostly clear. Poured with minimal head that dissipated quickly.
Aroma: This beer has a mild to medium hops aroma to it, but a strong yet tangy and floral sweetness. There is also a noticeable moderate spiciness.
Taste: Has a punch of fruit flavors such as apple, pear and even peaches that are not overwhelming but refreshing. This beer has a light maltiness that lingers on your palette.
Mouthfeel: There is a medium level of carbonation that is crisp and tickles your tastebuds. The fruitiness adds to the crispness that quenches your thirst.
Overall: This beer is so delicious that its 9.1% ABV will certainly catch up to you! It quenches your thirst in a jiffy, but leaves you wanting more of the soft, crisp fruitiness it delivers. Although we would gladly drink this beer at any and all times of the day, it is best for anyone looking to cool down on a hot day or best paired with a basil pesto flatbread pizza or even a fancy cheese platter.

· In the novel 'The British Museum is falling down' ·
It is 1965. Adam Appleby, a young 25-year-old student grappling with his doctoral thesis, as well as a father of three (Clare, Dominic and Edward) is terrified by the probability that his wife Barbara might once again be pregnant: the family lives in poverty in a squalid apartment at the top of a dilapidated old building in London. Faithful to the dictates of the Church as regards sexual morals and birth control, this Catholic couple live their intimacy as a couple with a furtive obsession, burdened with calendars, thermometers and a sense of guilt. "They had embarked on marriage with fairly vague notions about the 'safe period' and with a trusting hope in Providence which Adam was now finding hard to accept". If Barbara notes daily the temperatures on her two thermometres in a little "Catholic diary", Adam follows with interest the relationship between the liturgical year and the graphics of his wife's temperature fluctuations, finding himself "particularly devoted to those saints whose festivities occur in the so-called 'safe period', but feeling instead a certain turmoil when he finds among the names some virgin martyrs".
The novel describes an anxious day for the young researcher who, at the mercy of moral torments and practical setbacks, is incapable of finding a moment of peace for himself in order to do his research in the reading room of the British Museum; in fact, rather than working on his thesis, solemnly entitled The structure of long phrases in three modern English novels, he continues to be distracted by far more prosaic problems such as finding out, through innumerable calls on old payphones, whether his wife is pregnant for the fourth time. Lodge depicts in tragicomic style the image of a couple who torment themselves with complex and muddled natural methods; "Clare was born nine months after their wedding. Barbara had then consulted a Catholic doctor who had taught her a simple mathematical formula to calculate her non-fertile period. It was so simple that one year later Dominic was born". Adam and Barbara, in spite of striving to live according to Catholic principles on the subject, look with admiration – and with a sort of envy – at the new scientific progress in the field of contraception. Their sex life is exhausting and even when Adam is seated at the desk in the British Museum, his mind is anxiously absorbed not by his doctoral thesis but by the complicated graphics and calculations traced by the variations of Barbara's basal temperature, as well as by the anxiety of having to support a family on the verge of being enlarged.
In his preface David Lodge, a Catholic writer and university professor who teaches English Literature, openly reveals the motivation and ideas which inspired his novel where moral questions, which most married Catholics found themselves pondering on at the beginning of the 1960s, are tackled in tones that are comic but never scathing or derisive.The principal subject is that of the Church's teaching on birth control (which in Adam's and Barbara's case is a "non-control", a problem rendered pressing by the arrival of the contraceptive pill in the years before the Second Vatican Council. On going to the British Museum, Adam is pleased to note in a newspaper article that, during the work of the Council, "Cardinal Suenens requested a radical revision of the Church's dictates on birth control. Cardinal Ottaviani retorted that Catholic couples must trust in Divine Providence.On no other issue", the newspaper correspondent reports, "are the positions of the liberals and conservatives at the Council described with such clarity".
The British Museum is Falling Down is a sort of experimental novel which blends different stylistic registers, passing from the epistolary to the diary form, from the colloquial to metaphysical reflection. David Lodge makes ample use of pastiche, incorporating passages in which he imitates both the motivation and styles of writing used by various English authors (William Golding, Virginia Woolf, D. H. Lawrence, Ernest Hemingway): if in chapter five, for example, Adam dreams of being pope, drawing inspiration from the novel Hadrian the Seventhby Frederick Rolfe, the themes of betrayal, the awareness of guilt and theology are instead described in the style of Graham Greene.
The most touching parody is found in the epilogue where the conjugal problems of Adam Appleby are seen from another viewpoint, from the female perspective of Barbara who, from being the mere object of her husband's thoughts and perceptions, becomes the subjective conscience of the narrative, expressing at last her own point of view. Her inner monologue is a clear allusion to James Joyce's Ulysses and recalls Molly Bloom's stream of consciousness; she too was a wife at first left in the shadows but destined to recover her voice at the end of the novel. And Barbara's meditation on the paradoxes of sexuality, on the history of Adam's courtship and on their marriage seems to resolve the anxiety which has permeated the narrative up to this point, in the name of a wisdom which is entrusted with simplicity to the passing of the days.

Management Consultant, Entrepreneur, Urban Farmer
The world of curing and preserving has always been a fascinating one to me and it's rising in popularity. Every time I step into a new market I see more pickled and fermented products from both near and far. The selection is growing and it's an exciting to see the diversity of value added product coming from farm to table. The challenge for me is that I don't like pickled stuff. I get it, and I understand the purposed and cultural significance of pickling things for preservation – but I don't like it. There, I said it.
However, I do like cured meats. And surprisingly there isn't a whole lot of local product available in Seattle when it comes to charcuterie and salumi. Of course, there is Salumi owned by the Batali family which is great. And both Chop and Olympic Provisions in Portland make excellent products. But there is room for more. I mention charcuterie and salumi separately because they are two different things. Charcuterie is the French style of preserving, curing or smoking meats. This includes terrines, pates, and most importantly – sausages. It is primarily focused on pork but also utilizes other animals including poultry and beef. Salumi, on the other hand, is the Italian style of salt curing meats usually by drying and aging. Think – pancetta, prosciutto, salami, coppa, bresaola, et al. I want to do both. They both require different skills and produce products with completely different flavor profiles.
Earlier this year I explored the opportunity to buy a local sausage making company focused on creating great sausage from local, sustainably raised animals. While that didn't pan out it invigorated my creative spirit around charcuterie and salumi and I've begun to both learn and develop my business plan for creating the next great artisan meat company in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest. I'll be writing more here about the process of recipe trialing and planning over the next several months. For better or worse, both charcuterie and salumi have different legal and regulatory requirements to keep them safe for human consumption. Therefore this is my challenge – to learn the tangled web of USDA regulations, Commercial Kitchen setup and HAACP plan writing. Oh, and that's all before good old fashioned marketing and sales! Keep following me here to learn about this fun and exciting journey.

A Teamup Calendar always has at least one sub-calendar and can have multiple sub-calendars. These can be set up by the calendar administrator in Settings > Calendars.
Giving users access to Teamup is what we call sharing. Sharing a Teamup Calendar with others is done by means of unique calendar links. The calendar administrator can create these links and configure the access permissions of each one. See the full description of the permissions and how to share calendars.
Sharing selected sub-calendars
A common scenario for a Teamup Calendar is each person within a team having their own sub-calendar. The manager or coordinator of the team would ideally have access to all the sub-calendars. Each of the team members can be set up to view or modify only certain sub-calendars or only their own sub-calendar. When someone adds or updates an event, the name of the link used to do so is visible in the event footer. See a use case example here.
How to customize access permissions
To share a Teamup Calendar in this manner, a calendar link should be created for each team member:
- Go to Settings > Sharing and click on the ' + New Link' button in the top right.
- Name the link appropriately. For example, by name of team member (Linda) or by team (Design Team) or by project (Client 1 Design Project) or by space (Main Meeting Room).
- Choose Selected Calendars from the Calendars Shared drop-down box.
- Set the team member's own calendar access to Modify. For example, Linda's calendar link would be set to modify access to her own sub-calendar, and read-only access to Frank, Mark, and Sandy's sub-calendars.
- Setting a sub calendar to 'Read-only' means the team member will see the calendar but not be able to modify it. Setting it to 'Not Shared' will mean the team member won't see the sub calendar at all.
- Click on Save.
- You can test the link out by clicking on it.
- You should see a lock icon on the read-only calendars:
- See the link name in the top right:
- Send the links out to the appropriate team members.
- The calendar administrator can return to Settings > Sharing at any stage and click on Edit to change the permissions for a calendar link, or delete it entirely:

From Cold to Sold – The Sponsorship Sales Process
(3-part webinar series)
Sponsorship is about relationships… AND it's about sales. Do you need to be a 'salesperson' to be successful at sponsorship? No. But you DO need to understand the principles of selling in order to achieve consistent success.
The process from cold to sold in sponsorship has tangible timeframes and milestones involved. Not understanding what's involved is like hoping to travel to some far-off destination without a map or any means to get there. How will you find your way?
Being successful at securing sponsors is not about being 'salesy' or 'pushy' or trying to be something you're not. It's about being as effective as you can be in the time you have available – understanding and exploring common goals, screening potential partners efficiently, building relationships and moving through the process at your partner's pace. The last thing you want (or have time for) is to be tripped up by something that you were not expecting to happen – some question, delay or objection that you can't move past.
Join me in this hands-on 3-part webinar series, as we cover the steps involved to take your sponsorship approach from cold to sold. There'll be lots of group activities and you'll have access to resources and templates that will help you implement what you've learned.
Part 1 – Approaches and Meetings
When you create a sponsorship strategy, it's vital that you know the steps you need to take in order to make the most of every approach you make. Sponsorship conversations are never short and decisive, they tend to be long and meandering and take time to ensure both parties are 'on the same page'.
Every corporate fundraiser knows there is an element of 'sales' involved in seeking and securing corporate partners. Unfortunately though, when we talk about 'sales', it can also go hand-in-hand with some anxiety about the best way to make an approach or how to make the most of meetings with potential sponsors. In this first webinar in a series of three, Abby will take you step by step through the 'approach and meetings' phase in the sponsorship sales process which covers everything you need to know about moving from 'fear and into gear' so you start from a position of knowing what it takes to make the right approach to a potential partner and move from there to the meeting, and beyond!
What You'll Learn
In this webinar Abby will cover:
'ditch the pitch' to give yourself the best chance of piquing a sponsor's interest
master the art of following up
the role of your sponsorship proposal
gain a potential sponsor's trust
the best questions to ask throughout the process
what happens at the sponsorship meeting
What You'll Get
In this webinar you will receive:
Email template (for making a cold approach)
Research Tracker template (to help you ask better questions)
Sponsorship needs analysis template (to help you stay in control and on track in meetings)
Part 2 – Navigating Objections and Questions
In the beginning, the sponsorship sales process is geared towards making the right approach that gets you a meeting with a potential sponsor. Sponsorship meetings can take time to secure and while each encounter is as unique as the person you are meeting with, there are common elements to each of them, especially when it comes to understanding (the very natural part of the process) questions and objections. In this second webinar, in a series of three, Abby will help you understand how to embrace the 'objections and questions' phase and use them as a barometer reading of how engaged your potential partners are, rather than see them as something to be feared or avoided.
What You'll Learn
In this webinar Abby will cover:
why objections happen
the difference between objections and questions
common objections and questions
different ways to deal with objections – learn which works best for your style
What You'll Get
In this webinar you will receive:
Ways to handle objections checklist
Part 3 – Conversations that Convert to Contracts
Closing or 'earning' a 'sale' can be the most exciting (and nerve-wracking) part of the sponsorship process. Conversations that convert to a signed sponsorship contract are a milestone worth celebrating and the point at which you need to ensure your team and Board are prepared for the next phase of the relationship – this is where the 'rubber hits the road'! Getting to this point though takes determination and courage and it is where most charity sponsorship seekers lose confidence, try too hard or simply avoid having to ask for a sponsor's investment. Can you relate? In this final webinar in a series of three, Abby helps you reframe the role that closing the sale plays in the sponsorship sales process and shows you the logical steps to follow that will take the fear away, freeing you up to have clever conversations that convert your hard work into a signed contract.
What You'll Learn
In this webinar Abby will cover:
when to start those conversations to close the sale
why asking for permission to go to the next stage is so important, and how to be better at it
it's not what you say… it's what you ASK
the steps that lead to the contract
closing techniques that you can adapt to your style
how to be OK (and refine your techniques) if it doesn't work out
What You'll Get
In this webinar you will receive:
Conversations that convert process (to keep you on track as you close the sale)
Reflection checklist (to help you improve your conversion techniques)

On Thursday, a troubling story from the Pacific Northwest told of a Portland family whose private conversation was recorded by their Amazon Alexa device (from the company's Echo line) and sent to someone in their contact list. Amazon confirmed this incident did happen, and now the company has an explanation.
To recap: a woman named Danielle was contacted by one of her husband's employees in Seattle — this employee was the random person on the contact list — who explained that they received a conversation the family was having about hardwood floors. Danielle unplugged all of her Alexa devices and sought an explanation from Amazon, which was looking into the strange incident.
According to Amazon — which made a statement to The Verge — the Echo in question heard something which caused it to mistake common conversation as commands. The company says:
"Echo woke up due to a word in background conversation sounding like "Alexa." Then, the subsequent conversation was heard as a "send message" request. At which point, Alexa said out loud "To whom?" At which point, the background conversation was interpreted as a name in the customers contact list. Alexa then asked out loud, "[contact name], right?" Alexa then interpreted background conversation as "right". As unlikely as this string of events is, we are evaluating options to make this case even less likely."
While the incident certainly seems "unlikely," as Amazon describes it, we're wondering: does this explanation really make Echo users feel any better? At the very least, this reveals a major issue with Alexa's voice recognition. We don't know what words were being said, but the device apparently went through a series of commands from the unrelated conversation which would resemble something you might see used as a plot point in a sitcom episode about smart technology.
Again, despite the usefulness of Alexa-enabled Echo speakers for smart home purposes — and their convenience for other things — we've always had reservations about the products. And this incident only adds to those concerns. But Amazon has already sold millions of Echo devices, so we're hoping the company can improve its software to end issues like these for good.

Witchtown, which I thought was Witch Town made this song stick in my head. Okay, I mean, This Town and Witch Town do rhyme, so maybe that is a good reason. But not a really good reason.
I did like Witchtown a lot! Fans of witches and magic and mean moms will like it, too! Good cover!
What's Going On Here?
There are SO MANY wonderful book review blogs out there and I can't compete with them, that is for sure. So this is not a book review blog. This is just a way for me to organize what I have read so that I can be better at matching the right book to the right person. The blog title comes from the brilliant mind of the most talented woman who ever lived, Ms. Judy Garland. The full quote is, "Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of someone else." That is what I hope to do here and in ever aspect of my life.

By Megan Montemarano
As 2016 comes to a close, we'd like to take a moment to reflect on the past year, and the many outstanding accomplishments Sotheby's International Realty® has achieved. From expanding global services to new marketing tools, resources, partnerships and more, here's a glance back on the brand's most notable highlights for the year—and oh, what a wonderful year it has been.
Recent Expansions:
All year long, our brand has continued to expand both domestically and internationally. Most recently, Sotheby's International Realty was thrilled to announce its entrance into Chile, adding yet another country to its South American presence. An agreement was also signed with New Zealand Sotheby's International Realty to expand the company's operations into Fiji, which will further increase our global footprint. Here at home, we have seen an increased brand presence in Michigan, with the addition of the Van Horn team in Holland, Michigan, which will now operate as Beacon Sotheby's International Realty.
New Marketing and Brand Resources:
Now offering an invitation to explore the world's best addresses right on your own TV, the brand launched yet another pioneering tool in 2016—the Sotheby's International Realty Apple TV app. Available on all 4th generation Apple TV devices, the app features nearly 50,000 properties currently represented by our brand across the globe, with opportunities to explore homes on a larger scale than ever before.
Our brand partnered with The Wall Street Journal Custom Studios to feature a new video series entitled "Houseguest." This four-episode series follows influential individuals as they become a houseguest in a Sotheby's International Realty-listed home, melding their lifestyle with the extraordinary accommodations of the featured residence. We are the first real estate partner to develop this type of custom content with The Wall Street Journal. Click here to watch the latest "Houseguest" episodes.
Also this year, our brand was acknowledged for its ground-breaking integration of 3D Tours with Virtual Reality capability. The property detail pages on sothebysrealty.com now support 3D Tours, providing consumers with the opportunity to fully immerse themselves in the properties for sale. The tours additionally include a Virtual Reality Tour, available on all compatible devices. Sotheby's International Realty was even mentioned by Inman News in a recent article, which recognized the company as the leader of this new online property-search trend, beating Zillow and Realtor.com.
In an effort to expand the brand's reach in China, a syndication partnership with Juwai.com was launched earlier this year. As one of China's premier real estate portals, Juwai.com has over 2 million monthly visitors and more indexed pages than all other portals combined on Baidu – China's largest search engine. All current and new residential sales listings are automatically served on Juwai.com's search engine. Each property overview page has a contact request form for Juwai.com shoppers to request more information. Requests are sent directly to Juwai.com's team of first responders, a Chinese-language team located in mainland China, so they can respond to consumer inquiries in real time. The team then transcribes the conversations into English language lead forms and forwards them to the agent.
Capitalizing on the auction house's audience of highly qualified consumers, the Sotheby's International Realty brand has introduced a new series of ads on the homepage of sothebys.com. Every month, over 2 million affluent, motivated buyers visit sothebys.com, looking for information on art, automobiles and other luxury items, thus offering a fantastic opportunity to showcase extraordinary Sotheby's International Realty properties.
Auction Highlights:
Perhaps one of the most memorable auctions of 2016 was David Bowie's private art collection. This past November, the legendary musician's collection drew in bidders to a packed salesroom, achieving over $40 million in sales. To learn more about the results of this buzz-worthy auction, please click here.
There were plenty of other remarkable auction results throughout the year, including new artist records and all-time high sales in the category of vivid diamonds. Here's a look at the top ten prices achieved at Sotheby's auction for 2016.

As part of your smart meter installation, you may have received a Smart Energy Monitor. It's a handy device that can help you understand and monitor your electricity and gas usage in your home. Here, we answer some issues or questions you might have and show where you can get further help.
Don't have a smart meter yet? Book your smart meter installation
Smart Energy Monitor advice and help
What do I do if my Smart Energy Monitor displays 'out of range'?
If your smart monitor says 'out of range', this means the smart monitor isn't receiving a signal or information from your smart meter to monitor your energy usage.
If your monitor loses signal, try moving it closer to your electricity smart meter. Walls, windows and large metal objects can affect the signal strength, so try to make sure there are as few obstructions as possible.
Why does my Smart Energy Monitor display a 'not paired' message?
If your Smart Energy Monitor is showing a 'not paired' message, please call us on 0345 071 3991 and we'll get your smart monitor re-paired with your smart meter, so it can monitor your home energy use.
Why is there a price difference between my Smart Energy Monitor and my bill?
The cost that shows on your Smart Energy Monitor is based on the energy you use, but it's for information only. It doesn't include any additions like VAT or Direct Debit discounts that you may have on your bill. These are done through our billing system so can't be shown on your smart monitor. Don't worry, all the information we use to work out your bill is completely accurate.
Does the Smart Energy Monitor show individual appliance usage?
No. It shows only your total gas and electricity usage. But you can turn appliances on or off around your home and watch how your energy usage changes.
Do you need further help with your Smart Energy Monitor?
Whether it's understanding your Smart Energy Monitor or helping with any issues you may have, we'll be happy to help.
If your Smart Energy Monitor still isn't working as it should, get in touch with us on 0345 071 3991. We're open 8am to 8pm Monday to Friday, and 8am to 6pm on Saturdays.
You can also find lots more information in our Smart Energy Monitor full user guide.

On Thursday 27th October Sefton Health Champions delivered another roadshow in Birkdale Southport. We were invited by Cathy to go to a supported living home and other residents also came. It was an exiting roadshow because we were able to split the different games into different rooms in the house, so everyone could get involved.
We were made to feel very welcome and the whole morning started with a great cup of tea!
Paul Walsh introduced the session and Nicola told everyone her story and experiences of recovering form breast cancer.
Some of the group stayed to look at the amount sugar in food. Graham said "I need to watch my sugar" .Rebecca was very exited when we looked at the jelly babies and everyone was so surprised when Lesley and Simon told them there was 32 spoonfuls of sugar in the bag!
The rest of the group looked at the eatwell plate and talked about how to eat a balanced diet. Nicola said " Try to eat 5 portions of fruit and veg every day to be healthy"
Both the groups came together and Paul ran the Spin Wheel Quiz, with questions about different health topics. Both teams scored the same even after a tie breaker, so Paul said "Everyone is a winner well done!"
It was a great morning and thanks to everyone who took part.» Back to News

Trump has a new person to blame for tax problems: Hillary Clinton
[WASHINGTON] Donald Trump offered a new line of defense of his own tax problems Tuesday: blame Hillary Clinton.
At a rally in Prescott Valley, Arizona, Tuesday evening, Mr Trump sought to shift the focus on whether he has paid any income taxes over a nearly two decade period - due to a US$916 million business loss on his 1995 tax returns - to his Democratic presidential rival.
The tactic of shifting blame is one he has used many times before in the campaign - including when he finally recognised that President Barack Obama was born in the United States then promptly blamed Mrs Clinton for first fueling the questions, a charge without substance.
"So now after years of failure she complains about how I've used tax laws of this country to my benefit. Then I ask a simple question: Why didn't she ever try to change those laws so I couldn't use them?" Mr Trump told his audience.
"The reason that she did not do that is her donors and contributors have used those same tax laws as I did, the same way," he said.
As of Aug 31, FEC fillings show that Mr Trump has personally donated US$54 million of the US$165.9 million his campaign has raised.
The New York Times reported Saturday night that a leaked copy of his 1995 tax records showed he declared a US$916 million business loss that legally allowed him to avoid paying federal income taxes for two decades.
Mr Trump's attempt to shift blame to Mrs Clinton comes after two days in which the candidate and his surrogates have portrayed his avoidance of paying income taxes as a master stroke of business acumen.
"I have legally used the tax laws to my benefit," Mr Trump told an audience Monday at a rally in Pueblo, Colorado.
"Honestly, I have brilliantly used those laws."
"The man's a genius," former New York mayor and Trump supporter Rudolph Giuliani said Sunday on CNN's "State of the Union".
"He knows how to operate the tax code for the people that he's serving."
On Tuesday, that emphasis had morphed into a full-on critique of his presidential rival, with Mr Trump arguing that Mrs Clinton could have changed the laws when she was in the United States Senate representing the state of New York.
"These politicians folks don't have a clue and if they do they can't do it because their donors won't let them," Mr Trump said.
Mr Trump said he knows who Mrs Clinton's donors are, "but it's not up to me to make them public figures."
Then he named names: "George Soros, who declared losses of US$1.5 billion. Mr Soros declared losses, US$1.5 billion in just six months. And Warren Buffett declared US$873 million. Ask him did they write of the losses? Oh, I doubt it right? Oh, I doubt it".
Both Mr Soros and Mr Buffett have reportedly seen losses, but without seeing their returns, there's no way of knowing if they claimed losses on their personal tax returns.
At a Monday rally in Toledo, Ohio, Mrs Clinton sought to portray Mr Trump's financial moves as self-serving.
"He abuses his power, games the system, puts his own interests ahead of the country's," Mrs Clinton said.
"It's always Trump first, and everyone else last."
Mr Trump's defense of his tax history dominated his speeches at two rallies Monday.
On Tuesday, he again said that he knows the complex system better than anyone, and claimed that, as a result, he is especially qualified to fix it.
It remains unclear whether Mr Trump has paid any income taxes since reporting the US$916 million business loss, and, citing an IRS audit, he has refused to make his tax returns public.
Mrs Clinton and her husband have released seven years worth of returns, and Mr Trump would be the first presidential candidate from a major party since Richard Nixon not to do so.
While Mr Trump said in the first presidential debate that not paying income taxes "makes me smart," most voters see doing so as unpatriotic.
A CNN/ORC poll released Monday found that 86 per cent of those surveyed viewed paying taxes as every American's "civic duty".

Yes. Wisconsin sales tax is computed on the retailer's sales price of a new motor vehicle before subtracting the amount of a manufacturer's rebate.
The tax treatment of the work performed by contractors depends on whether the contractor is acting as a retailer or acting as a consumer.
When the contractor is acting as a consumer, no seller's permit is required. The contractor is a consumer when constructing, installing, repairing or servicing real property (e.g., installing windows, painting a house, installing a furnace). As a consumer, the contractor pays tax on materials purchased and used in performing the real property activity. The contractor's charge to the customer is not subject to tax.
When the contractor is acting as a retailer, a seller's permit is required. A contractor is a retailer when selling, installing, repairing or servicing tangible personal property (e.g., repairing a furnace) or providing a taxable service (e.g., landscaping).
A contractor must pay sales or use tax on all tools and equipment used in any construction, installation, repair, or service activity.
Publication 207,
Sales and Use Tax Information for Contractors, contains additional information to help distinguish between real and personal property activities.
In general, the sale of food for human consumption is exempt, with the following exceptions as defined in sec. Tax
11.51(3), Wis. Adm. Code:
Note: Sales of alcoholic beverages are taxable. Alcoholic beverages are not considered "food" for purposes of Wisconsin sales tax laws. For further information see:
Section Tax
11.51(1), Wis. Adm. Code - Definition of "food and food ingredients."

11.87, Wis. Adm. Code - Examples relating to sales of food and food ingredients.
Wisconsin retailers must collect sales tax on sales made over the Internet and shipped to Wisconsin addresses. The Internet Tax Freedom Act, originally enacted in October 1998, does not prohibit Wisconsin from taxing sales over the Internet. There is no exemption for merely making sales over the Internet, except where the sale occurs (i.e., is sourced to a location) outside of Wisconsin.
Prior to October 2, 2018 - Remote sellers must collect sales tax on sales made over the Internet and shipped to Wisconsin addresses if they are 1) registered to collect Wisconsin sales or use tax, or 2)
engaged in business in Wisconsin (e.g., have a physical presence in Wisconsin).
October 1, 2018 and thereafter - Beginning October 1, 2018, Wisconsin requires remote sellers to collect and remit sales or use tax on sales of taxable products and services in Wisconsin. New standards for administering sales tax laws on remote sellers have been developed by rule. The rule is consistent with the Court's decision in
Wayfair, which approved a small seller exception for sellers who do not have annual sales of products and services into the state of (1) more than $100,000, or (2) 200 or more separate transactions.
Note: The small seller exception does not apply to sellers with a physical presence in Wisconsin.
For additional information, see the department's web page for
Remote Sellers –
Wayfair Decision.
When a retailer sells taxable products or taxable services, the retailer's total charge, including its charge for delivery, is taxable. This is the case whether delivery is made by the seller's vehicle, a common or contract carrier, or the United States Postal Service.
Exception: The sales price of direct mail does not include separately stated delivery charges. For further information, see
Publication 235,
Advertising Companies.
A Wisconsin purchaser who purchases taxable goods without tax for use in Wisconsin is subject to use tax based on the "purchase price" of the goods. "Purchase price" includes transportation or delivery charges paid by the Wisconsin purchaser to the seller for the shipment of taxable goods to the purchaser. "Purchase price" does not include transportation or delivery charges paid by the Wisconsin purchaser to a carrier which is independent of the seller.
A manufacturer or other seller may accept an exemption certificate claiming resale from an out-of-state purchaser, even when the manufacturer or other seller is directed to ship the product to a consumer in Wisconsin and the out-of-state purchaser does not have a Wisconsin seller's permit or Wisconsin use tax registration certificate.
If the manufacturer or other seller does not receive an exemption certificate from the out-of-state purchaser, the manufacturer or seller is liable for Wisconsin sales or use tax on its sales shipped to Wisconsin locations.

Legendary walleye men Bob Propst Sr., Gary Roach, and Mike McClelland were so ahead of their time that, other than lure tweaks and bit of technology, the trio could have probably written this article back in 1987.
Gary Parsons, a walleye star past and present, refers to them as "next-level predatory anglers," gifted fishermen with a nose for tracking fish. Parsons isn't talking about simply being able to catch more than your buddies. He's referring to the talent of sniffing out, stalking, and targeting one king-size walleye at a time, regardless of whether the fish is holed up in a boulder field in 32 feet of water or a cabbage stalk on an 8-foot flat.
"These days, top guides, tournament anglers and a few select fishermen are zeroed in on more than just structure," says Parsons, the only angler to have won Angler of the Year titles on three professional walleye circuits. "They're targeting spots-on-spots – individual boulders they discover on side-scan sonar, small clearings in vegetation, subtle transitions, or the steepest portion of a drop-off. Move the cursor over the object and drop a waypoint. It's that easy.

The white-label platform to issue, transfer and manage tokenized securities.
The Next Step in the Securitization Industry
Retail banking is digital. Thanks to new technology, this industry has undergone significant changes over the past decade and consumers now have instant access to digital services, 24/7 and 365 days a year.
Capital markets remain analogue. These markets are full of manual and costly processes, leading to complex and disjointed systems. Through tokenization, institutions can digitise financial assets, such as equities, loans, bonds, funds and other securities, and streamline their administration to provide clients with a digital-first service.
Tokeny Solutions provides investment banks, funds, mid-cap companies and distributors with the modular and user-friendly technology required for firms to digitise their processes, so they can enforce global compliance obligations, enable automation and drive efficiency.
What is Tokenization?
Tokenization is the process of converting rights of an asset into a token that can be subdivided, traded and stored on a blockchain system. Tokenization simply converts the value of an asset, tangible or intangible, into a token that can be manipulated on a blockchain.
What Can Be Tokenized?
- Assets owned by individuals, companies and governments
- Equity in businesses
- Investment Funds
- Services and goods of businesses
Why Tokenize?
The tokenization of traditional securities offers a host of benefits that will change the makeup how financial infrastructure works today.
A number of service functions that are currently carried out by middlemen can be automated through the blockchain.
Cost Effective
By cutting out many of the typical, low-value-added, expensive intermediaries that are needed for offerings, costs are reduced.
Fewer Intermediaries
Through smart contracts and automation, blockchain technology eliminates the needs for many intermediaries that exist today.
Once data has been written to a blockchain (i.e. after a transaction has occurred), changes cannot be made to the data.
Global reach and lower fees of the blockchain infrastructure allows for a new and global investor network.
The ability to fractionalize tangible assets through tokenization can bring liquidity into these markets that have had little to no access to it.
The tokenization of securities on blockchain technology will make governance and ownership more transparent and reliable.
Digital transfer of ownership in seconds, 24/7/365, thanks to peer-to-peer trading.

Willow Glen is a bustling whirlwind this time of year. Between decorations, ski gear, and holiday ephemera, "San Jose's Local Treasure" ends up full of clutter and mess in the back rooms, closets, and garage spaces across the neighborhood. Old town charm takes a lot of "stuff" to pull off—especially when the holidays hit.
Every new year, we seem to get a barrage of clients coming to us saying that it's their New Year's resolution to finally clean out their garages. They've allowed their garages to be taken up with clutter until they're practically useless even for car parking. These desperate organizers come in droves, seeking creative and efficient ways to get their storage under control.

Rainy season has officially come to the Bay Area. Powerful storms passing through the area have downed trees, caused power outages, whipped up strong winds, and pelted us with rain—and lots of it. Menlo Park alone has already received significant precipitation this year, which makes roads hazardous and can create nightmare-worthy driving.
Though you may have high hopes of getting yourself organized before the new year hits, it might be a good idea to hold off on any big projects that require the outdoors (unless you're looking to fight our unpredictable weather). King tides are coming, and even though Menlo Park is protected by the Bay, we're still in for quite a bit of flooding potential. Tackle your attic first, for instance, before you start moving your life's collection of file folders and golf clubs out of the garage and into the path of the storm.

If you're a long-time Bay Area hoops fan like me, you definitely know the name Steph Curry, the star point guard for our Golden State Warriors. But did you know that until May, Steph Curry owned a home in Orinda? Although he recently sold it for $4.65 million, he used to live in a Spanish-style hacienda rich with luxuries—including 4,700 square feet of interior space. But with the average listing price for a single family home in Orinda half of what Steph Curry's house was worth, most folks in town don't have the same kind of space.

There's a cliche about being at the end of the line, but when it comes to the BART station in Fremont, that's literally true. It's where the lines that can bring you down from Richmond or across the Bay come to an end. Of course, this means it's also a beginning, and new beginnings are all over the Fremont BART station. The new Warm Spring/South Fremont station is set to open in the fall of this year, and as someone who visits the area lot, I can tell you, it's pretty beautiful. It might just revamp public transportation around here.

Apart from its historic downtown, excellent wineries, and booming economy, one of the best parts of living in Los Gatos (or the Bay Area in general) is how close you are to the great outdoors. Hiking and camping beckon, with Sanborn County Park 20 minutes away and Big Basin only a half-hour's drive. If you're a "weekend warrior" who enjoys leaving town to spend time with Mother Nature for a couple of days, it's a great spot.

I was recently sitting in the spacious kitchen of a home in the Blackhawk community outside Danville with some clients. They live near the country club, so golf came up. The couple were excellent golfers, with very low handicaps, and their enthusiasm was contagious. They'd gotten each other new clubs last Christmas, and when I asked to see them, we went to the garage. That's when the situation got complicated.

Palo Alto is a combination of spontaneous growth and rigid planning. In the post-war years, it was one of America's most rapidly-blossoming suburbs, but it never grew too big, thanks to an active zoning board. It's how the city has retained its charm. Part of that charm is a certain consistent style of architecture, a low-slung one-story home that is prominent in neighborhoods like Los Arboles. That's why neighborhood groups have successfully petitioned the zoning board to limit homes to one story, so-called "Eichler-style" homes (after the architect), in the neighborhood. These are likely to be joined by Greer Park and Royal Manor in the Midtown area.

|Freeing up space for bikes and recreation with custom garage storage solutions turns what was previously a concrete slab and a parking space into your new favorite room.
|Image source: Valet Custom Cabinets & Closets
Palo Alto has amazing natural beauty, a booming economy, and one of the most educated populations in America. There is also a fair amount of traffic. The situation has gotten so severe that Palo Alto's CIO Jonathan Reichental is even pushing for Internet-of-Things (IoT) technology that helps drivers minimize parking time and optimize traffic flow by collecting data on local traffic patterns. This information, along with that already being collected by internet-enabled cars, can create a new data-based urban model.
But why not try the old-fashioned way to "go green" and beat traffic by hopping on your bike? In addition to IoT tech, Palo Alto is addressing the traffic problem by aggressively funding new bike paths that will offer an alternative to many popular commuter routes. As residents start to see a comprehensive network of new bike routes throughout Palo Alto, they can increasingly opt to skip the long commute for the appealing combination of a pleasant ride and a morning workout. Redesigning your garage with custom bike racks and retractable tool chests can facilitate biking. You'll feel good about lowering your carbon footprint and skipping the gridlock when you're easily able to opt for biking. Once you free up space with an effective storage system, a beautiful garage becomes so much more than just a place to park.

Mark Olson is one of the Senior Designers at Valet Custom Cabinets & Closets. Mark has been with Valet since March 1999 and, along with experience that he gained prior to coming on board with us, has over 30 years experience in the home improvement industry. Over the years, he has "really had fun designing cabinetry for people with all sorts of garages filled with junk." When Mark discovered a slow leak in his water heater, he finally had the chance to design his own custom garage! "My kitchen was the next home remodeling project my wife and I had in mind," Mark said. "However, since the water heater needed replacing and the platform and sheetrock re-done, one thing led to another."
So what does it look like when a designer gets to create his own garage? Let's take a look!
