Music Reviews for Candace's music!
Undone, August 2017, Austin Chronicle
Austin physician Candace Bellamy cuts right to the chase on the confident country/blues-rock of Undone, her fourth solo EP. The Knoxville, Tenn., transplant demonstrates an earthen and emotive voice on rousing opener "Bad Idea," a whiskey-drenched cautionary tale told from the POV of a world-wise woman. On piano-driven rocker "Trigger," she disarms with a devilish charm: "The best lies are the ones you tell yourself." Bellamy saves her best for the closing title track, submerged in a reverie of ache and emotional exhaustion, knowing she must press forward.
Undone, May 2017, Soul Tracks
Candace Bellamy – Undone
There will always be a doctor in the house on whatever venue which Candace Bellamy graces. That's because the Knoxville native and Austin resident is herself a physician. Bellamy is clearly a person of many gifts, but eventually she decided that music was her true passion, and that she needed to pursue that passion.
Since, then Bellamy has cut a quartet of albums, including her latest – the EP Undone. Bellamy's music has always incorporated the sounds and influences of eastern Tennessee, Memphis and Austin and those influences can be heard the vocals, arrangements, and the stories of the women we meet in this brief but richly descriptive five song EP.
Bellamy tries to dispense some cautionary advice to a girlfriend (or perhaps a younger sister or daughter) on the blues rock fused "Bad Idea," a track propelled by church infused keyboards and pulsating bass and slashing guitars. "He's easy to look at/Even I like him from behind/But up close and personal/He'll rob you blind," she proclaims.
The country ballad "Chase Me" tells a story of a couple that allows the life to sap the joy and sheen from their relationship, and pleads with her man to seek to recapture the good times by revisiting the simple joys of chasing each other. However, the song's hook reveals that the two are pursuing something more. "Chase me, chase me/And tell me I'm the only one/The only one for you/Chase me, chase me/love me with your honesty/Trust me with your loyalty/All the things that money can't buy"
The funky "Strut" turns the rocky road of life into an endless runway as Bellamy celebrates determined, relentless women who may fall but never stay down, as she encourages them to "put on your boots and strut/Cuz the runway's not long enough for a woman like you.'
We featured the single "Trigger" on a first listen, and it's easy to see why. When you think of the music of Austin, you hear the kind hard hitting funk, blues rock fusion that Bellamy wraps her sultry vocals around in this simmering tale of a woman being led down a path of sensual self-destruction. "The best lies, are the ones you tell yourself," Bellamy declares.
Bellamy trained to be a doctor, but she seems to have much in common with a compounding pharmacists in the way she goes about making music. She'll take a couple of milligrams of Memphis soul, combine it with a sprinkle of east Tennessee country, a dash of Texas rock and blues and wash it down with some gospel and it will be more than alright. It will be just what the doctor ordered.

Candace Bellamy – Undone
Twaalf jaar geleden begon dokter Candace Bellamy als hobby te zingen in coverbanden en musicals. Dat leidde haar naar Austin in Texas, waar ze samenwerkte met songwriters zoals Ruth Carter (componist voor Stevie Ray Vaughn, Robert Palmer, en John Mayall), baslegende Jimi Calhoun (Dr. John, Jimi Hendrix, John Lennon) en Jake Langley (Roberta Flack, Willie Nelson, k.d. lang). Nu is haar nieuwe EP uitgekomen, met songs over het leven. Het verhaal erachter is dat we dikwijls niet beseffen waar mensen mee bezig zijn in hun strijd. Maar er is hoop. 'Bad Idea' begint met blues rock, waarop ze advies geeft aan een vriendin, gevolgd door het ietwat funky 'Strut'. Daarna is 'Chase Me' een ballade, waarna de single 'Trigger' volgt, ietwat rock met een bluesachtergrond. En de titeltrack, die afsluit, is een rasechte soulballade. Een aanrader uit het zuiden van de USA, met invloeden van soul, funk, blues en zelfs rock.

This EP has influences from the south of the USA, with soul, funk, blues and even rock. Recommended.
Santa Baby, December 2016, Bill's Music Blog.
I first heard about Candace Bellamy on a tip from SoulTracks, a website and newsletter that is a compendium of all things soul music. This is the EP that I flipped for as soon as I heard it, partially because Bellamy's particular combination of soul, jazz, and blues is pure magic when paired with Christmas. The other reason is Bellamy's voice, her tone and delivery is perfectly suited for this type of material. Her Santa Baby EP has four tracks, two carols and two secular tunes. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that her "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" is as good as any version of this song that I've ever heard. This record compares favorably to an EP by Hamish Stuart, Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Stuart, formerly a founding member of the Average White Band, released this EP some years ago, and it never fails to amaze me just how relaxing a good soul Christmas record can be. Aside from her voice and her excellent musicians, a giant reason why these recordings sound so good is the amount of air in them. I'm talking about the production style that allows these tracks lots of space to breathe. When done right, as on Shelby Lynne's Just A Little Lovin' album, it's the silence within the song that makes the music that much more powerful. Even Bellamy's title track, "Santa Baby", sounds so good I don't even care that it will be the 900th version in my collection. For the record, Bellamy is an R&B artist based in Austin, TX, and she does have one prior full length album and some EPs, just not a full length Christmas album (yet).
Listen to:"God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" and "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas".
Santa Baby, December 2016, Soul Tracks.
A successful physician who also has the gift of a mellofluous voice that does its own healing, Candace Bellamy has juggled her two loves for over a decade now. And while she has intentionally worked in a broad palette of musical styles, from soul to rock to jazz to blues, she takes a much more laid back, jazzy approach to her latest release and first Christmas recording, the EP Santa Baby.
Opening with a smooth electric guitar and attractive bass line, Bellamy leads off the disc with a cool take on "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen," emitting the kind of comfortable vibe that is a welcome contrast to the generally stilted, uncomfortable versions that have filled the radio over the years. The song provides a good peek at Bellamy's overall approach on the album, creating a musically consistent feel to a disparate group of songs, making them work surprisingly well, one after another.
Song selection often craters holiday albums, and there are times on Santa Baby when the song choices make it a bit tougher to create something transcendant. Exhibit 1 is the title cut, a novelty song popularized by Eartha Kitt more than a half century ago, but one that is rarely on anyone's list of holiday favorites. However, it is not faint praise to say Bellamy gives perhaps the most enjoyable version of the song yet, moving the ersatz sexy 1950s lyrics to less front-and-center position, and focusing more on the groove and style of the cut. And if the title cut was a challenge for Bellamy to elevate, even tougher is "Little Drummer Boy," an odd carol that has rarely been covered well over the years. But Bellamy and crew take the song in a different direction, giving it a New Orleans feel, with playful horns and and terrific vocal arrangements.
For me, the highlight of Santa Baby is the gentle reading of "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas," a smoky take on an oft-recorded classic, with Sean Giddings' piano interacting beautifully with Bellamy's alto, and an equally nice solo guitar from Carter Arrington. It feels like midnight in December at Baker's Keyboard Lounge, and establishes a mood that works just right.
At four songs and sixteen minutes, this enjoyable disc ends too soon for my taste. Candace Bellamy has always had an understated way of making the most of a song (if you haven't heard it, check out her 2015 version of "Try A Little Tenderness"), and she continues to demonstrate her masterful song stylings on Santa Baby, even with more suspicious underlying material than her prior albums. She makes each of these songs her own, and creates a late night holiday album that you'll want to snuggle around for years to come. Recommended.
Try A Little Tenderness, Soul Tracks.
"We introduced SoulTrackers to singer Candace Bellamy a few years ago with her wonderful album A Thousand Shades of Blue. And we've been following this talented singer – who is also a physician! – ever since.
Candace is working on a new album due for release this Fall, and she kicks it off with a familiar song. Working with French producer Jahta Manilla, she has created a killer cover of Otis Redding's classic "Try a Little Tenderness." Candace's version has a soulful groove topped by her gentle, expressive vocals, giving new life to an old favorite.
Candace tells us about the cut: "Doing a cover of a well known tune by one of my favorite artists of all time, not to mention working on the project with a new producer who lived five thousand miles away was both exciting and terrifying. But I loved every minute of it. I hope you enjoy our interpretation of a classic and that we've made Otis proud."
I think Otis would be smiling.
Music Review -In My Lane, Soul Tracks.
"Varied and intriguing, and one of the early winners of 2013. Highly Recommended."
Music Review – In My Lane, This Is Book's Music.
In My Lane is an album by an artist who not only understands the path she has taken, but also knows of the interesting detours and off-ramps that she has the option of going towards, under her own rules.
Music Review- In My Lane, Scrink in Music.
You're going to feel good listening to her music. Truly.
Music Review- In My Lane, Grungecake.
Delving into the submissions pile from record labels, a month ago, we listened to Candace Bellamy and we're impressed! Considerably influenced by The Temptations, Roberta Flack and Aretha Franklin, Bellamy brings it on "In My Lane".
Music Review – In My Lane, Austin Chronicle.
In My Lane…. finds the Tennessee native leaving no vocal stone unturned. Here's one singer who shouldn't have to stick to her day job.
Music Review – In My Lane, Daily News Pittsburgh.
Austin, Texas-based newcomer Candace Bellamy puts the "blues" in rhythm & blues on stellar debut "In My Lane."
Music Review – Soul Bag, France
Cette belle femme est médecin le jour à Austin, Texas, et chanteuse le soir dans les clubs locaux. Après un premier EP paru en 2011, elle propose ce premier album visiblement réalisé sans le soutien d'un "vrai" label. Elle bénéficie pourtant de moyens honorables pour une production signée Ruth Carter et Jake Langley. La première est une songwriter respectée dont les textes ont été repris par Stevie Ray Vaughan et même… Vanessa Paradis. Le second est un guitariste tout aussi estimé et qui s'illustre largement ici, souvent avec bonheur (bonne partie de slide dans Johnny). Candace Bellamy fait preuve d'un joli tempérament, accrocheuse dans les pièces mid tempo, gentiment funky (Put down your foot, Sweet sweet soul), sophistiquée et sensible dans les titres jazzy (Like honey, Walk away), mais c'est dans I don't know et EXpect qu'elle donne toute sa mesure de soul sister. Dommage que quelques titres soient moins marquants et que les 39 minutes de l'album nous laissent sur notre faim. En laissant espérer un prolongement prochain.
Translation-This beautiful young woman is a physician by day in Austin Texas, and a singer in local clubs by night.
After a first EP released in 2011, she proposes this first album obviously carried out without the support of a "true" label.
However, she have the benefit of respectable resources for a production signed by Ruth Carter and Jake Langley. The former is a respected song writer whose lyrics have been covered by Stevie Ray Vaughan and even…. Vanessa Paradis. The latter is an equally respected guitar player who often distinguish himself brilliantly here (Good piece of slide guitar on Johnny).
Candace Bellamy shows a nice temperament, catchy in the mid-tempo pieces, gently funky (Put down the foot, Sweet sweet soul), sophisticated and sensitive in the jazzy tracks (Like honey, Walk away). But it is in I don't know and Expect that she gives her full potential of " Soul sister". It's a pity that some tracks are less striking and that the 39 min of the album leave us unsatisfied. Raising hope for an upcoming continuation.
Music Review – In My Lane, The Horn, Austin.
Candace Bellamy…..has a new record and it's fiery and rich.
Music Review – In My Lane, Austin Monthly.
The deeply funky guitar riff that kicks off In My Lane's lead track, "Put Down The Foot" gives you a pretty good taste of what's to come. But there's more to this debut album than tasty soul. Bellamy really shines on jazzy blues numbers, "Like Honey" and "Walk Away."

The second March auction will be held in the Williamsport, IN gallery on March 30th and 31st. The Saturday portion of the auction will be an astounding collection of postwar trains with a very strong emphasis on the 6464's and sets. It is an incredible collection with outstanding original boxes. These boxcars are what many people term "honest" cars that are 100% original and have not been "mintified" with new wheels, thus many of the C8-9 cars are perfect bodies with run time on the wheels.

National Army Museum 2017 Limited Edition Bauble
The National Army Museum 2017 bauble is inspired by embroidered silk postcards in our museum collection, designed onto bone china and finished with hand painted gold leaf.
The embroidered mistletoe design is from a postcard sent by Private Philip Poole to his mother Eliza for Christmas 1917 during the First World War. He was 20 years old, undertaking logistical transport duties with the Army Service Corps on the Western Front. Philip's message wished his mother a Merry Christmas, 'From your loving son.'
Embroidered silk postcards were a popular keepsake from the trenches. Although crafted by out-of-work French civilians and refugees, their fine detail meant they were not cheap to buy.
The bauble is Limited Edition, with only 100 created in Stoke by our designer and maker Glorious Mud Ceramics. Each bauble is individually numbered 1 to 100 on the base.
The design is repeated on the front and reverse, with the National Army Museum logo also printed on the base. Each order includes a white gift box.

Keep In MindPosted in customer service, data entry, help wanted, leads, legit jobs, teaching, wah, work at home, work from home
Sometimes when searching for jobs to work from home, you have to look in some really familiar places. For instance, over at Virtual Vocations I posted a job for Huffington Post that I found on Craigslist.org. That job could have been found easier if I had just visited Huffington Post directly. You should check websites periodically and see who is hiring because you never really know when someone might post a job. Look what I found just by revisiting Huffington Post......
Then I decided it was time to visit Kaplan and Score again and found this...
Faculty Position
and then I went over to 1800Flowers and found this
Temp Customer Service
All this got me to thinking about how many companies hire but don't typically post their jobs frequently. As a job hunter you should not stop at applying only for companies who are currently hiring. You never know when someone will need help and a lot of times neither do they, so I say apply everywhere all the time!
Here are a few to start with but if you want more tips like this you might want to check out my Tips Section at Virtual Vocations!

Well, the announcement of Rock Band 4 was a surprise, not because of the announcement itself, as it seemed more like a when than an if, but the timing of the announcement and how little was actually revealed. For those not up to date, Harmonix announced that Rock Band 4 will drop this year for Xbox One and Playstation 4 (sorry Wii U) and started to give a few tidbits of information that answers a few questions, but still leaves plenty of room for speculation.
First and foremost, all of your purchased songs from previous Rock Band games will transfer over, AND without a fee, but there are a few caveats to note. First, it's restricted to your account and platform, so if you purchased all your content on 360, you'll only be able to import your purchases into the Xbox One version, and vice versa with the PS3 and PS4.
Given that there won't be an import fee, this is HUGE. I personally have hundreds of Rock Band songs that have been gathering digital dust and I'm incredibly excited that I'll get to replay all of my favorites again this year on my newer console.
That being said, all of the on-disc music from Rock Band 3 won't be available in 4 due to licensing issues, at least currently. The same goes for The Beatles game as well, unfortunately for those fans. It's a tradeoff that seems as if there's no real way around it, or it would be a viable option for us to have. We don't know when Rock Band 4 is releasing other than sometime this year, so maybe with some luck this might change.
There's a big unknown though, and that is if all of our old instruments will work or not on the newer consoles. Obviously there's an issue of the older hardware using completely different wireless protocols so that seems like it's the biggest hurdle. Hopefully there will be some type of adapter or something to make it work, but I'm not sure how they're going to get around that realistically, or else it would have been done previously for controllers and racing wheels.
So given the small bit of information that we do know so far, here's my wish list of features I would love to see in Rock Band 4 from Harmonix.
Backwards compatibility with older instruments.
I get why this is such a big demand from the community. I know I've spent hundreds of dollars on guitars, drums, and keyboards over the years, and obviously it would be nice to put them to good use once again. Honestly, the only reason I really want this feature is because I have the Pro ION Drum set that was vastly superior to the default Rock Band drum set and it will be very difficult learning from scratch on the standard drums once again.
New hardware / instruments
Didn't I just say I want backwards compatibility with the older instruments? Yes. Then why am I asking for new ones? Two main reasons. The first, I want better quality in the hardware itself. The old instruments are just that - old - so many people have either gotten rid of them, are getting a loose button or two on their guitar, or have a pair of drums that doesn't always register properly. Secondly, if there isn't going to be new hardware, that means there mostly likely won't be any new features; meaning we'll simply be playing more Rock Band on current gen hardware.
Yes I want that, but I also want a new experience that also happens to work with the massive catalog of music available on the marketplace. It's a double edged sword, as to innovate and push further you need to progress the hardware (instruments) as well. Sure, it might be off putting for some that have already purchased the whole band set before, but I'm trying to look bigger picture if Rock Band is going to be here to stay.
Kinect integration
Stop it, I can hear your groaning from here, but hear me out. Thinking along the lines of evolving Rock Band, as the point is to perform like a Rock Band in your place with your friends, imagine the capability this could add. What if the Kinect could detect how well you're performing visually, not just acoustically through the microphone and instruments? Maybe you could get bonus points for being very animated as a singer, having the guitarists lean back to back like any good 80's music video, or detecting the arm movements from the drummer for enthusiasm. The possibilities are great and if I was given bonus points for being very animated while singing a solo, I would absolutely do it. Better yet, what if Kinect could read your gestures and translate those onto your in game characters subtly somehow or have backup dancers?
More music
This is obviously a no brainer, and yes there's already over 2000+ songs on the Rock Band marketplace, but there needs to be more. I'm not going to list why I think a certain band should be included simply because I like them as it's subjective, but having a broader range would be very welcome, especially when it comes to newer music.
Alternate versions of songs
I'm obviously a fan of the version of a song that's on the album itself, as it's usually the most heard, but given how many songs have been getting remixes, acoustic versions, and covers in the past few years, I would love to see an option to play version A, B, or C of a specific song. Maybe a DJ remix or a different artist's cover for example. Again, the more music the better, and having a broader range will only garner more fans and appeal.
Rock Band Stage Kit support
I know not many had this accessory, but for those that did, it was fantastic. This was essentially a box that you bought that had a smoke machine and light included. What it did, though, was synchronize with your game to add effects when it was most pertinent, which included an awesome light show. I know it wasn't the most popular accessory, but it made a huge difference in giving that true Rock Band experience.
Different bundle options
Some people (like me) will want to purchase the whole experience in a single box with 'new' instruments. This will most likely include a guitar, drum, and microphone. Maybe have an option with a bass in the box as well or use that as the 'ultimate' rock band version. The same goes for the other end of the spectrum, as if backwards compatibility is possible, then simply offering the game for sale for those that have hung onto their instruments all these years. Ideally there would also be bundles with the game and just the microphone, guitar, or drums, but I know that's not always possible as retailers don't want to have 5+ SKUs of a product on the floor, especially large boxes like these. The more options the better, but it will really come down to the 'need' for new instruments or not.
Pro instruments
These were an option for Rock Band 3 and I would love to see them make a return (and improved). For those that got very good at the game, this was the next step in challenge and difficulty. My only gripe though was that the pro versions of songs cost more. I get that they obviously take more work on the backend, but when I'm already laying down more cash for the more expensive instruments, it was frustrating. Oh, and double pedals on the drums are a must!
Smartphone / Tablet integration
Just like how the possibilities are endless with my Kinect ideas, the same goes for this. Everyone has a smartphone or tablet, so capitalize on this and make a unique experience for the people at a party that are waiting their turn to play with the instruments instead of being onlookers from the couch. I know when we used to have Rock Band parties in the past it was usually quite a gathering, and simply choosing a song was difficult, so imagine a party-like mode where everyone that's participating logs in to a centralized Rock Band service, complete with their name and instrument preferences. The game would then randomize who plays what and even picks a song for the randomized group. This could be insanely fun or even challenging with a large group of people and would act almost like a roulette wheel of who is playing, what instrument, and what song.
What if people not playing could then vote for the next song so that it's ready to go as soon as the performers finish the song selection they are currently on? What if people on their mobile devices could arbitrarily increase or decrease the difficulty of a song on the fly (within a special mode) if enough vote for it? There are a ton of possibilities and mobile screens need to absolutely be put to use in some way for everyone in the room not playing the instruments themselves.
Season Pass / Subscription / Rentals
I know this is most likely never to happen, simply because it would be a nightmare with music licensing, but imagine if you could subscribe to a Rock Band service much like Netflix, where you could have unlimited access to the Rock Band marketplace for as long as your subscription is valid. I know I own a lot of songs, but with over 2000+ available to purchase, there's no way I'll ever get to play all of the songs, simply because of the cost involved. I know the chances of this happening are almost zero, so maybe the ability to somehow rent a song like how you can do in the Xbox Video marketplace. This would obviously a very slippery slope, especially when DLC already has a bad stigma about it, but there are a few instances where I could see this being useful.
These are some of the items on my wish list for Rock Band 4, even though I'll be preordering and purchasing day 1 regardless. I really do hope to see some innovation with the game and in spite of the fact that Harmonix has already shown the 'new' instruments with no visual differences, we'll have to wait and see what they have up their sleeve for E3 to hopefully learn more.
Finally I would like to give my condolences to the Rock Band Keyboard, which will not be making a return in Rock Band 4. Rest in peace Keyboard / Keytar, you will be missed from at least some of us.

My Victoria Beckam Rock & Republic jeans have 'bit the dust' (tear). So I took The Rock (aka: my hubby Cory) to help me shop for a new pair of duds. We got a babysitter one Friday night, went straight to the GAP...and had good luck! I purchased this pair of welt-pocket curvy jeans.
I was dreading (& putting off) the time when I had to shop for a new pair of jeans, but it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I'm very happy with the pair I choose but still looking for another pair. If you have any suggestions of a good pair, I'd love to hear your ideas.

Hi girlies!
Today I have a little review for you. This morning I was applying my make up and used the Rimmel London Scandaleyes Shadow Stick in a purple shade, for a little definition on my lower lash line. I've never tried a shadow stick before so when these came out in Denmark, a couple of weeks ago, I had to pick some up. It was very easy to choose the first colour since I'm a neutrals girl. I picked up 003 Bad Girl Bronze which is a shimmery bronze. Even though I'm a neutrals girl I quite like the idea of a little colour now and then, so I also picked up a coloured one. I love purple, it's my favourite colour, and since purple benefits brown eyes I had to pick up the colour 006 Paranoid Purple.
The sticks have a creamy consistency and are very buildable. Now, I haven't tried this, but I in my opinion you can do a smokey eye with just one stick, because of the buildableness. You would apply the shadow all over the lid and blend so it doesn't have a deep colour and then blend some in, in the crease – a couple of time, so it gets to the darker-smokey stage and lastly apply some on the lower lash line for a night-smokey-eye. Just a little thought, I think would work.
Bad Girl Bronze is great for the whole lid, for smoking out the crease and for a little definition on the under lash line. I primary use this for the whole lid and blend it out for a daytime look. I'm tempted to pick up one more neutral in the colour Bulletproof Beige which is a light, golden beige shimmer. It would be perfect for all over the lid for a light daytime look and to apply in the tear duct area to lighten up the eyes.
Paranoid Purple is a beautiful eggplant shimmery colour. Now, I wouldn't use this for the whole lid but this is just the neutral girl in me that says no but I LOVE this colour for defining my lower lash line a bit. For other colour full looks for the summer, I'm tempted to pick up Gossip Green and Blamed Blue. Gossip Green is a mossy green colour and Blamed Blue is a bright, shimmery blue. They would be perfect for a beachy colour full summer look.
Over all for this review, you can see that I'm very positive and will probably pick some of the other colours up! 😉
Have you tried these eyeshadow sticks? Which colour did you pick up? Have you tried any other brands, which?
Thanks for reading 🙂 Have a lovely summer day!

why is osteopenia of prematurity now less common?
due to addition of phosphate, calcium and vitamin D
why do premature babies have low iron stores and at risk of iron deficiency?
as most iron transferred to fetes during LAST TRIMESTER
so need iron supplements
why are preterm infants at higher risk of infection?
1. because IgG is transferred in LAST TRIMESTER
and they don't get any IgA or IgM
2. infection itself is a reason for preterm labour!

hypoxia - assoc with RDS
which bleeds have a higher risk of cerebral palsy?
which is the most severe type of bleed and what is its consequence?
unilateraL haemorrhagic infarction involving parenchyma

The Ronald McDonald House Charities®
of the Intermountain Area
Ronald McDonald House®
Many families travel far from home and spend several days, weeks or months receiving treatment for their children. It's a long time to be away from home or to divide a family. For children facing a serious medical crisis, nothing seems scarier than not having loved ones close by for comfort and support. Our House is built on the simple idea that nothing else should matter when a family is focused on the health of their child, not where they can afford to stay, where they will get their next meal or where they will lay their head at night to rest.
Ronald McDonald Family Rooms®
Just steps away from their child's bedside, our Family Room at Primary Children's Hospital offers a place to rest and regroup right at the hospital, moments away from their sick child. The Family Room allows families to be together, always near their loved ones, to help ease their pain, lift up their spirits and help their child overcome their illness. Research shows that a family presence in the hospital helps children feel stronger and cope better.

NEW YORK (AP) - Stocks rose for the third straight session yesterday as oil prices fell sharply and the government reported that the economy grew last quarter at a faster pace than previously estimated.
A rising dollar helped push crude oil down by more than $4 per barrel, the biggest single-session drop since March. Investors have been concerned that rising oil and gasoline prices would dent consumer spending, which accounts for more than two-thirds of economic activity.
The revised reading of first-quarter gross domestic product helped ease some worries over recession, which is defined by two straight quarters of decreasing GDP. The Commerce Department said the economy grew at an annual rate of 0.9 percent - above the department's earlier estimate of 0.6 percent.
Meanwhile, MasterCard Inc.'s shares jumped to a fresh high after the credit card processor said it still expects to see double-digit growth in net revenue this year.

Why Mr. Johnson (Fidelity) is no John Bogle
It seems that Fidelity has been trying to change their business strategy as of late and... hmmm, it smells a lot like what Vanguard has already been doing since the company was founded by Mr. Bogle many years ago. Let's briefly review: Fidelity was the shizznit back in the 80s and 90s when Peter Lynch racked up impressive returns with his Magellan Fund. This vaulted Fidelity into the largest mutual fund company and Magellan as the largest mutual fund. As usual, most investors joined the party too late missing out on those stellar returns, but the fund continued to have severe asset bloat, thus returning less than the S&P 500 for most of the late 1990s and early 2000s. Fidelity is notorious for closing their funds too late as exemplified by Contrafund scheduled to close later this month (current assets ~70 billion!).
As Fidelity started to lose their market share (see American Funds and Vanguard), they started to change their business model to mimic what companies like Vanguard had already been doing, namely lower costs. Their Spartan index funds have expense ratios of 0.10 (less than Vanguard), they recently announced closure of two more of its successful mutual funds (Mid Cap and Growth Company)..... and now, they've provisionally won a contract to manage California's 529 college savings plan. They beat out Vanguard and TIAA-CREF by promising lower fees, more investment choices, and marketing efforts.
But Fidelity does not hold the interests of its shareholders as a priority. In fact, Fidelity has objected to an SEC requirement that fund boards have independent chairs. Looking out for the individual shareholder? I don't think so. For Californians, it's kind of a moot point because there is no state tax benefit for residents to hold a california 529 plan so residents can shop around for any state's plan and still get the federal tax benefit.
After saying all that, would I own any Fidelity funds? I already do.... in fact, all of my 401K is tied up to Fidelity funds. It still offers solid choices... but just like the wolf in sheep's clothing, the interests of (most) fund companies do not lie with those that own its mutual funds.

Northern California mom delivers 13lb, 11oz baby in a natural birth
When a Sacramento baby boy was placed on the hospital scale after delivery, his mother was shocked.
Valentino Francisco Corsetti weighed 13 pounds, 11 ounces, and his mother, Kelly Corsetti, couldn't believe the number she saw.
The healthy newborn was the size of a typical three-month-old when he was welcomed at Sutter Davis Hospital on Friday, April 28, at 7:59 a.m.
Corsetti knew her baby would be big, but she never expected him to be among the largest babies delivered in California.
Perhaps even more impressive, Corsetti's delivery was natural and speedy at only two hours.
"The baby was perfect," said Sutter Davis spokesperson Gary Zavoral. "A lot of times when babies are that big, they have health issues because they're too big. Or the mother has a C-section, but this was a completely natural birth."
Thirteen pounds is big, but Valentino, is far from the heaviest newborn. Vanessa Cervantez of Southern California delivered a 15-pound baby via emergency C-section in 2014.
A woman gave birth to a baby that weighed 14 pounds, 3.6 ounces at a hospital in Salinas, Calif., in 2011. Emily Maldanado was in labor for two days before giving birth to her son Andrew via Cesarean section.
A mother birthed a 19-pound baby in Indonesia in 2009 and a Russian baby was born in 2007 weighing a hefty 17 pounds. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the heaviest born to a healthy mother was a boy weighing 22.5 pounds, born in Aversa, Italy, in September 1955. The average newborn weighs 7.5 pounds at birth.

Creative Living
Writing tips, lifestyle INSPIRATION & book reviews FOR PURPOSE-DRIVEN CREATIVES, WRITERS AND DREAM CHASERS
Whether your 2017 deserves a high five for its kindness or a major eye roll for bringing the drama, you've survived the highs and lows and made it to the new year. For many, January 1st marks a new beginning. A chance to start fresh and create New Year's resolutions to help them create change and obtain successful outcomes, whether it's working out more or starting a new career.
Over the past few years, I've attempted to join thousands of writers from all over the world in National Novel Writing Month - a challenge to write 50,000 words during November. Yes, completing a book in 30 days is as wild as it sounds, but NanoWriMo is a fun, crazy and exciting time. You lose sleep, stock up on extra coffee and put your social life on hiatus as you race against the clock to meet your goal.
It's tempting to hop on the bandwagon and follow the latest trends as we wait patiently - and not so patiently - to land our big break or an opportunity that gets us to the next level.Writing books or creating scripts based on what's hot right now, or building an online business modeled after someone else's formula seems more appealing than sticking to your own strategy, especially when you're barely gaining traction and others keep passing you by.
We can't wait for inspiration to come to us. We need to create our own muse.
Sometimes, writing is fun. And then there are those other days...
When It's Okay to Quit
It's a great feeling to quit on your own terms. It's freeing to walk away and let go of something that is no longer working. Quitting something is often seen as negative but there are certain things/behaviors we need to quit if we want to move ahead.
In my first LIT CHAT video, I breakdown 5 things we need to quit in order to move ahead in life and in our purpose. Check it out!
I showed up to the library with my laptop, writing pad and pen in hand, ready and determined to tackle the challenge ahead. Within minutes, other excited and ambitious writers filled the room, some published and others just beginning their writing career.
Is your schedule, job or other responsibilities making it impossible to write or work on a creative project?
Life gets busy. Daily schedules become hectic. Time gets away from us. On some days, you just can't drop everything and dedicate two hours to write or work on a creative project. Many of us balance full-time jobs with a side hustle. Others juggle home responsibilities and family life while pursuing their creative passion and chasing after their dream.
Do you build connections with people who genuinely value what you do?
There are two truths when it comes to your work: You have talents and skills that help others, and what you have to offer won't appeal to everyone.
I came outside on my lunch break on a muggy, hot afternoon ready to head to the forest preserve, but my plans to read and write for an hour were derailed as soon as I took a look at my car. My rear tire was completely out of air. Flat. Not even drivable to the nearest gas station, which was less than two minutes away.

23 January 2003
Swisscom Mobile was the first Swiss network provider to offer the new Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) back in June 2002. The MMS promotion launched this winter has borne fruit ? some 100,000 Swisscom Mobile customers now own an MMS-enabled mobile, and over 60% of them regularly send and receive multimedia messages. Good news for all MMS enthusiasts and those who want to become one: On 1 February 2003 Swisscom Mobile will introduce a new pricing structure and reduce the cost of MMS messages from the NATEL® network by up to 50%. Added to this, the existing promotion campaign will remain in force until 31 March ? until then, Swisscom Mobile customers can continue sending 50 MMS messages a month, free of charge.
Swisscom Mobile aims to provide a fair price/performance ratio for MMS messaging and will therefore continue to bill MMS messages according to size, subdivided into three volume categories. For the first time in Switzerland there will be a new category for messages of up to one kilobyte ? MMS messages with text content only will now cost CHF 0.20. With this milestone in MMS history, Swisscom Mobile is also creating the necessary pricing conditions for the unrestricted substitution of SMS by MMS. The second volume category, for up to 30 kilobytes, permits the sending of two to three images as well as sound (depending on mobile phone and photo quality). For this Swisscom Mobile now charges CHF 0.50. And for extra-large MMS messages as well as (at a later stage) video MMS messages of up to 100 kilobytes, NATEL® customers will now pay CHF 0.90.
The new prices will cover the transmission of MMS messages not only within the NATEL® network, but also to other Swiss mobile networks as soon as technically possible (planned for the first quarter of 2003). As a further step Swisscom Mobile is also planning to enable the transmission of MMS messages to networks outside Switzerland. Even now it is possible to send multimedia messages from over 17 countries to the Swiss NATEL® network (cost depends on GPRS data volume), thanks to the unparalleled number of GPRS roaming agreements which Swisscom Mobile has already signed and continues to add to.
Swisscom Mobile believes the greatest potential lies in personal messaging (peer-to-peer communication), but also sees a growing trend towards MMS-based entertainment and information services. In line with this, the "gomobile" mobile portal now offers one of the most comprehensive range of services of this type in Switzerland. Current events are also covered. For example, Swisscom Mobile customers can subscribe free of charge to an MMS service for the Alpine World Ski Championships and receive daily photos and updates on this important sporting event.

Functions of Art – artistic expression of time and place
The NLaka'pamux were master weavers who produced fine garments of elegant design. Woven clothing was used as a replacement when buckskin was scarce, in hot or rainy weather and was worn on certain ritual or ceremonial occasions. The bark and inner fibres of Indian-hemp, willow, cedar and sagebrush provided the main sources of weaving materials. A black coloured lichen (Bryoria fremontii) was used occasionally for vests and moccasins, and rushes and long stemmed grasses for capes. Animal fibres, especially mountain goat wool, were spun and woven into blankets and robes in some of the NLaka'pamux communities.
Woven fabric is made from the interlinking of threads. The warp is a set of long strands cut to the desired length and width of the fabric. The strands are bound together with a crossing thread called a weft. NLaka'pamux garments were usually woven with a technique called twining. To begin, a long weft thread is doubled and looped around the outside warp thread. The thread at the back is brought to the front, and the front thread moves to the back, crossing as they pass between each warp strand. Between each row the weft threads wrap around each other along the selvage, creating a neatly twisted edge.
"I used to remember my grandmother [spinning hemp]… especially in the evening when we'd be sitting around, or any time of the day when she needs to do it. She fixes it up, and then she rolls it and then keeps on adding more if they're going to make rope, adding and rolling it, adding and rolling it."
Mandy Brown, Lytton, British Columbia, 1992

More Protests Planned Over Railway Through National Park
By Kevin Mwanza
Nairobi — Demonstrators plan to protest against a railway line being built inside Nairobi National Park, which they say threatens wildlife and people in Kenya, after their case was dismissed on Tuesday.
A court said that it cannot stop construction of a 6 km (4 mile) railway bridge, which the China Road and Bridge Corporation started building last month through the capital's sprawling sanctuary for lions, giraffes and zebras.
"We have found that we have no jurisdiction on the matter," Mohammed Balala the National Environment Tribunal (NET), ruled on Tuesday. "A similar case is pending in the High Court."

Dallas Concrete Contractor Fundamentals ExplainedConcrete Slab Installation in Dallas TX
Concrete forms and pouring a concrete slab foundation can be daunting. Your heart races due to the fact that you understand that any mistake, even a little one, can rapidly turn your piece into a big mess, an error actually cast in stone.
In this article, we'll stroll you through the slab-pouring procedure so you get it right the very first time. We'll pay particular attention to the hard parts where you're probably to goof, like the best ways to make concrete.
If you haven't worked with concrete, start with a small pathway or garden shed floor prior to attempting a garage-size piece foundation like this. In addition to basic woodworking tools, you'll require a number of special tools to complete large concrete types or a slab (see the Tool List below).
The bulk of the work for a brand-new piece remains in the excavation and type building. If you have to level a sloped website or generate a great deal of fill, employ an excavator for a day to assist prepare the site Figure on investing a day constructing the forms and another pouring the piece
In our location, working with a concrete specialist to pour a 16 x 20-ft. slab like this one would cost $3,000 to $4,000. The amount of cash you'll minimize a concrete slab expense by doing the work yourself depends mostly on whether you have to employ an excavator. You'll save 30 to 50 percent on concrete piece expense by doing your own work.
Step 1: Prepare the site for the concrete slab in Dallas
Prior to you start, contact your regional structure department to see whether a permit is required and how close to the lot lines you can construct. In many cases, you'll measure from the lot line to position the slab parallel to it Then drive four stakes to roughly indicate the corners of the brand-new piece. With the approximate size and location significant, use a line level and string or builder's level to see how much the ground slopes. Flattening a sloped site suggests moving tons of soil. You can develop the low side as we did, or dig the high side into the slope and include a low retaining wall to hold back the soil.
Your concrete piece will last longer, with less splitting and motion, if it's developed on solid, well-drained soil. If you have clay or loam soil, you ought to remove enough to allow a 6- to 8-in.
If you need to eliminate more than a few inches of dirt, think about renting a skid loader or hiring an excavator. An excavator can likewise help you get rid of excess soil.
Keep in mind: Before you do any digging, call 811 or visit call811.com to set up to have your local energies locate and mark buried pipelines and wires.
Step 2: Construct strong, level types for a perfect piece around Dallas
Start by picking straight type boards. Cut the two side type boards 3 in. You'll nail the end boards in between the side boards to create the correct size kind.
Demonstrate how to construct the kinds. Step from the lot line to place the very first side and level it at the preferred height. For speed and precision, use a home builder's level, a transit or a laser level to set the height of the types.
Brace the kinds to make sure straight sides Newly put concrete can press form boards outside, leaving your slab with a curved edge that's nearly difficult to repair. Place 2 × 4 stakes and 2 × 4 kickers every 2 ft. along the type boards for support.
Stretch a strong string (mason's line) along the leading edge of the type board. As you set the braces, make sure the type board lines up with the string. Adjust the braces to keep the form board directly.
Reveals measuring diagonally to set the 2nd kind board perfectly square with the. (In our case, this is 15 ft.) Then mark a numerous of 4 ft. on the surrounding side (20 ft. for our slab). Change the position of the unbraced kind board up until the diagonal measurement is a numerous of 5 (25 ft. in this case).
Squaring the second type board is most convenient if you prop it level on a stack of 2x4s and slide it back and forth up until the diagonal measurement is proper. Drive a stake behind the end of the form board and nail through the stake into the form. Complete the second side by leveling and bracing the form board.
Set the third type board parallel to the first one. Leave the fourth side off till you've hauled in and tamped the fill.
Suggestion: Leveling the forms is much easier if you leave one end of the type board slightly high when you accomplish to the stake. Then change the height by tapping the stake on the luxury with a trample up until the board is completely level.
Action 3: Develop the base and pack it.
Concrete requirements support for added strength and crack resistance. It's well worth the small extra cost and labor to install 1/2-in. rebar (steel strengthening bar). You'll discover rebar at home centers and at suppliers of concrete and masonry items (in 20-ft. lengths). You'll likewise require a package of tie wires and a tie-wire twisting tool to connect the rebar.
Utilize a metal-cutting blade or disc in a reciprocating saw, circular saw or mill to cut the rebar. Cut and bend pieces of rebar to form the boundary enhancing. Entwine the pieces together by overlapping them a minimum of 6 in. and covering tie wire around the overlap. Wire the boundary rebar to rebar stakes for assistance. Cut and lay out pieces in a 4-ft.- on-center grid pattern. Wire the crossways together. You'll pull the grid up into the center of the concrete as you put the slab.
If you have actually never put a big slab or if the weather condition is hot and dry, makings concrete harden rapidly, divide this slab down the middle and fill the halves on various days to reduce the amount of concrete you'll need to finish at one time. Eliminate the divider before pouring the second half.
Mark the position of the door openings on the concrete forms. Mark the location of the anchor bolts on the forms.
Step 5: In Dallas Fort Worth Get ready for the concrete truck
Putting concrete is hectic work. To minimize stress and avoid errors, ensure everything is ready prior to the truck gets here.
Triple-check your concrete forms to make sure they're square, level, straight and well braced. Have at least 2 contractor-grade wheelbarrows on hand and three or 4 strong helpers. Strategy the route the truck will take. For big pieces, it's best if the truck can support to the concrete types. Avoid hot, windy days if possible. This sort of weather speeds up the hardening procedure-- a slab can turn tough before you have time to trowel a great smooth finish. If the projection calls for rain, reschedule the concrete shipment to a dry day. Rain will ruin the surface area.
To figure the volume of concrete required, increase the length by the width by the depth (in feet) to show up at the number of cubic feet. Divide the total by 27 and include 5 percent to compute the number of backyards of concrete you'll need. The air entrainment traps microscopic bubbles that assist concrete stand up to freezing temperatures.
Action 6: Pour and flatten the concrete to form a perfect concrete slab
Be prepared to hustle when the truck gets here. Start by positioning concrete in the concrete forms farthest from the truck. Usage wheelbarrows where essential.
Concrete is too heavy to shovel or push more than a few feet. Location the concrete close to its last area and approximately level it with a rake. As soon as the concrete is placed in the concrete kinds, begin striking it off even with the top of the form boards with a straight, smooth 2 × 4 screed board.
You want enough concrete to fill all voids, but not so much that it's hard to pull the board. It's much better to make several passes with the screed board, moving a little concrete each time, than to attempt to pull a lot of concrete at once.
Start bull-floating the concrete as quickly as possible after screeding. The objective is to eliminate marks left by screeding and fill in low spots to produce a flat, level surface area. Bull-floating also forces larger aggregate listed below the surface. Keep the leading edge of the float just slightly above the surface area by raising or decreasing the float deal with. If the float angle is too high, you'll rake read this article the damp concrete and develop low spots. 3 or four passes with the bull float is usually adequate. Too much floating can compromise the surface area by drawing up too much water and cement.
Step 7: Float and trowel for a smooth finish in Dallas
After you smooth the piece with the bull float, water will "bleed" out of the concrete and sit on the surface area. When the piece is firm enough to withstand an imprint from your thumb, start hand-floating.
You can edge the piece prior to it gets company considering that you do not have to kneel on the slab. If the edger sinks in and leaves a track that's more than 1/8 in. deep, wait on the piece to solidify a little prior to continuing.
You'll have to wait till the concrete can support your weight to begin grooving the piece. The kneeling board distributes your weight, enabling you to get an earlier start.
Grooving produces a weakened spot in the concrete that allows the unavoidable shrinkage cracking to happen at the groove instead of at some random spot. Cut grooves about every 10 ft. in large slabs.
When you're done grooving, smooth the concrete with a magnesium float. You might have to bear down on the float if the concrete is starting to solidify.
For a smoother, denser surface, follow the magnesium float with a steel trowel. Troweling is among the harder actions in concrete completing. You'll need check here to practice to develop a feel for it. For a truly smooth surface, repeat the troweling step 2 or three times, letting the concrete harden a bit between each pass. At first, hold the trowel practically flat, elevating the leading edge just enough to prevent gouging the surface. On each successive pass, lift the leading edge of the trowel a little bit more. If you want a rougher, nonslip surface, you can skip the steel trowel altogether. Instead, drag a push broom over the surface to create a "broom surface."
Keep concrete wet after it's poured so it treatments gradually and establishes maximum strength. The simplest way to ensure proper treating is to spray the ended up concrete click here now with treating substance. Treating substance is available at home centers. Follow the guidelines on the label. Use a regular garden sprayer to use the compound. You can lay plastic over the concrete rather, although this can result in discoloration of the surface area.
Let the completed piece harden overnight before you thoroughly remove the kind boards. Pull the duplex nails from the corners and kickers and pry up on the stakes with a shovel to loosen and eliminate the kinds. Because the concrete surface area will be soft and easy to chip or scratch, wait for a day or more prior to building on the slab.
