Alexander Armstrong appears to have put his foot in it with his comments in the Evening Standard yesterday (July 3) about the return of cabaret and the revival of interest in burlesque. Armstrong was speaking to promote the London Festival of Cabaret which he is taking part in this autumn – singing, rather than telling gags. He has already had a bash at serious singing onstage with a short run at the Hippodrome earlier this year.
The former chorister was quoted in the Standard as saying "I'm convinced that cabaret is set to return. People said it about burlesque and they weren't wrong. A whole load of old strippers bought themselves pompons and souped-up their sets and are calling themselves burlesque."
If you know Armstrong you'll know that no offence was meant to the burlesque community but it didn't stop the Comments section at the bottom of the story soon filling up. Mia Merode said: "How dare you be so insulting towards an art form you have absolutely no clue about? I can't even begin to put into words how offended I am by this statement: it is naive, deliberately provocative and completely, utterly wrong. Burlesque is an element of cabaret, appearing in many cabaret shows and is a hugely varied art form. I am disgusted by this narrow-minded, ugly viewpoint you have taken."
Others also took umbrage at the Pointless star's suggestion that cabaret was only just about to come back. This forthcoming festival, which also features the likes of theatreland favourites Maria Friedman and Janie Dee, has already been criticised for focussing on the more MOR/mainstream side of cabaret and not acknowledging the more underground/transgressive side of the genre that has been thriving in London in recent years.
CH2013 wrote: "You do the countless cabaret performers a disservice by being entirely unaware of the field you wish to enter. "Cabaret is set to return"? When did it disappear? "Become huge", "go mainstream"? No. You say "return". As if what is going on now doesn't matter. Yet you want to be part of it? And be there to bring it back, right? Hubris. Not only that, but a snide comment about burlesque performers, too? Wow. Stay classy, Armstrong."
E Norrie also vented his/her spleen on the Standard's website having a pop at both Armstrong and the forthcoming Festival: "Cabaret is set for a revival? Old strippers with pom poms? I'll tell you what, Mr Armstrong and everyone else involved with this farcical London Festival of One-Tiny-Facet-of-Cabaret-Featuring-White-Middle-Aged-West-End-Performers, why don't you come taste the exciting, vibrant and very popular offerings by this city's cabaret community before you go insulting and denigrating us?"
Walt Utz added: "Good luck with your debut.... but don't expect a warm welcome from the industry with such pretentious comments."
Armstrong later took to Twitter to respond and apologise: "Anyone who knows me will attest that it is not my style to demean and insult people. It was an off-the-cuff comment that was intended to make the interviewer laugh but it comes over as clumsy, mean-spirited & ignorant. I am truly, truly sorry to all those I have offended."

Of course it's not silly to be opposed to the other partner dictating something as important as your children's names, with no input from the other partner.
I have to agree with you. I don't prefer any of your husband's combinations. They do not mesh with the styles of the paired name, or with you other children. As for the b/g pairing he suggested, I can't tell which name is meant for the boy and which for the girl and I don't see any appeal of Grayun.
I really like your name pairs. However, maybe you both need to just sit on this for a little while until you find out the genders and can have a more focused discussion, leaving out the arguments that aren't relevant to these two little people.
Good luck! I hope you are able to find two names you both love.

There's nothing like seeing a rival succeed where you haven't to put your life into harsh perspective. Such was the case for Hannah on last night's "Girls," in which she was faced with attending college nemesis Tally's book party for her recently published memoir. Hannah couldn't help but bemoan Tally's "luck" at her boyfriend committing suicide in a vintage car while doped up on Percocet. I mean, that story basically writes itself...
...A sentiment Tally so humbly threw in Hannah's face. "It just really poured out of me," she purred about the memoir, or as she so eloquently put it, her "water-birthed truth." Not everyone was falling for Tally's Fresh Air-approved work: Hannah ran into her former English professor Powell Goldman (played by Michael Imperioli), who admitted Tally was a crummy writer and that Hannah was far superior. He invited her to read at an event he was organizing later in the week. Hannah wasn't so sure.
Marnie, however, was all for Hannah participating in the reading, but wasn't so keen about her highlighting her hoarder essay. As they discussed the merits of the work, Adam buzzed into the apartment all Kramer style, telling Hannah he would not attend the reading because those things never serve meat.
In another one of Shoshanna's all-too-brief appearances, she told Jessa that Tally's book had inspired her to really start living her life, which in Shoshanna speak meant filling out an online dating profile (not on Match because everyone on that site is ugly) and going on her first day date. Jessa decided to make a change too—redecorating her and Shoshanna's apartment.
As Jessa moved around couches and fussed with the interior, a knock came at the door. It was former employer Katherine, who surprisingly didn't come to beat Jessa up for her flirtation with her husband. I appreciated that she was mature enough to realize it was her husband's mistake, not Jessa's, all the while still having dreams about cutting Jessa into pieces and eating her. She asked Jessa to come back to the girls, but Jessa made it clear she couldn't. Katherine left her with one piece of advice: "You're getting into dramas to distract from who you want to be." Truer words.
Hannah did go to the reading, but eschewed her hoarder essay for something she wrote on the subway. Something about death, which was clearly inspired by all the attention Tally seemed to be getting over her own melancholy memoir. Former Professor was not impressed and said he had wished Hannah had went with her gut and read the original.
At home, Hannah tried to talk to Marnie about the reading, but she would have none of it. "As it happens, I'm not always in the mood to talk to you," Marnie said, as the discussion devolved into a huge fight over Marnie paying all the bills and who, indeed, was the wound. By its end, the two decided they no longer wanted to live together—a revelation which seemed to come on quick like. The question remains: Who will have them? (Because let's face it, Marnie and Hannah are kind of perfect for each other.)
What did you think of last night's "Girls"? Do you think Hannah and Marnie will really part ways as roomies? Will we see who Shoshanna had a day date with? How will Hannah fare as a barista? Sound off in the comments and on Twitter!

Using Hydroxy HHO Gas & EFIE Devices to Improve Fuel Economy
Clearing up water gas technology misconceptions
Before we go any further, we need to clarify one or more misconceptions in this regard.
Water gas technology is becoming a hot, hot and hot topic these days - and why not, with the fuel prices reaching the roof and all. It seems that everyone is saying that this is the solution to our fuel dependency problems. We can finally run our cars on tap water alone - a concept that we have earlier though to be a pipe dream and nothing more. But is this really possible?
One: the water gas technology cannot afford us the power to run our cars on mere tap water alone - at least not on the commercial level. Rather, we use H2O (also known as HHO) as a fuel economy booster; or some element we could use to maximize our car's fuel use. We still need to buy gas with this technology launch x431 v plus.
In automobile history, the only time that water has successfully been used as fuel source was when engines ran with steam power. The locomotive industry used this extensively for years. However, steam powered engines are cumbersome and bulky, and needs a large storage of fuel source like coal or wood. These are definitely not something you can install in modern day cars.
Two: not all ready made engines can use water gas technology. Most, if not all of these said engines will have to undergo necessary makeovers.
Three: although there are many online companies now offering do-it-yourself manuals on how to convert your car's engine to something that can use the water gas technology, it would still be better to have a professional mechanic or engine builder perform the necessary changes. Otherwise, you will only be putting your car (and you!) in danger.
How does water gas technology really work?
To simplify matters, we are going to couch this explanation in layman's terms. Water gas technology would obviously need more specialized equipment to process the water as fuel economy booster autel maxisys ms906. You would need a water reservoir to place in your tap water; an HHO generator that will separate the two elements of hydrogen and oxygen; and HHO cells which will finally convert the separated elements into energy (hydroxyl gas.)
The actual process is the following:
1. Water is introduced to the water reservoir. Usually, there is a particular ratio (depending on many factors like: car make, engine make, and other additional engine components) as to how much water should be added for an amount of gas. Let us just say that for this particular example we will have 1:10 ratio, where 1 is the gas liter and 10 is the water liter.
2. The generator creates an electric spark that eventually heats up the water as it flow from the reservoir to HHO cells. The cells in turn separate the elements of water: hydrogen and oxygen.
3. Oxygen is released as a by product of this process which is less toxic than most fuel emissions.
4. Hydrogen is also a gaseous element which is then mixed with the small amount of gas in the tank. This can be done through the installation of vacuum tubes from the hydrogen producing cells to the actual car engine. The resulting hydrogen-water mixture has enough power to run the car or any light vehicle for a period of time.hhoshop.com offers more information about EFIE Devices as well as Vehicle HHO Generators.

It's no surprise that speed is a common factor in many New Mexico car accidents. (Our lawyers often see "excessive speed" listed as a primary cause or contributing factor on our clients' police reports.) And with higher speeds come more severe injuries, but the question some might ask is whether or not New Mexico's posted speed limits are causing more accidents?
Currently, New Mexico's 75 mph speed limits on certain freeways and interstates makes us one of only sixteen states that allows drivers to travel at this rate of speed. However, in cities like Albuquerque and Las Cruces, 65 mph remains the posted speed because of their dense population and urban layout.
Because New Mexico's legislators take into account an area's population density to determine speed limits, it's a bit more difficult to determine whether or not high speed limits translate into more crashes. The reason for this is because if we look at the number of crashes in an area of the state that posts 75 mph limits, it's likely there will be fewer crashes than on the high traffic interstates with lower speed limits due to the simple fact that there are fewer vehicles on the 75 mph roads. However, does this tell the whole story?
Most of us would assume that higher speed limits would translate into chaos on the highways and interstates, because a majority of people would travel even faster than the posted maximums. In contrast, it's often assumed that lower speed limits would mean safer conditions because velocity is not as big of a concern. However, studies show that if speed limits are raised, it doesn't necessarily mean that there will be more crashes. The reason? Drivers are not likely to exceed their own personal comfort level with regard to how fast they drive, no matter what speed limit is posted.
As mentioned earlier, there's no debating the number of interstate deaths and severe injury increase with increased speed limits, and there are a number of studies that confirm this. For example, in a report published by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, one statistic points to the fact that when Congress established a nationwide maximum speed limit, deaths attributed to automobile accidents dropped by 16%. (Traffic fatalities totaled 54,052 in 1973 and 45,196 in 1974.) And specific to New Mexico is a report that saw fatal crashes increase throughout the state when in 1987 we became the first state to revert back to a 65 mph speed limit on rural highways.
New Mexico Speed Limits
The posted speed limits in New Mexico vary depending on the type of road and population of the area in which you're traveling. The Governor's Highway Safety Association has listed the following speed limits for New Mexico:
Rural Interstates
- Cars - 75 mph
- Trucks - 75 mph
Urban Interstates
- Cars - 65 mph
- Trucks - 65 mph
Other Limited Access Roads
- Cars - 60-70 mph
- Trucks - 60-70 mph
No matter what side of the speed limit debate you fall on, the following should be agreed upon by everyone: following the rules of the road, giving yourself plenty of space between vehicles, and not driving distracted are all critical practices to avoiding a potentially serious accident.

How To Throw A Halloween Party Like April & Andy of Parks & Recreation
Last year on Parks & Recreation, April and Andy threw a blow-out Halloween shindig. They remembered vampire teeth, blood capsules, and spiderwebs, but forgot to let their adorable hedgehog of a roommate Ben know they were throwing a party…
April dresses as a sumo wrestler who's lost weight, Andy is an ultimate fighter, and Ben passively-aggresively refuses to dress up, though he owns a totally realistic Batman costume. The party itself has all kinds of amazing moments, but my favorite scene was at the very beginning of the episode (Meet 'n' Greet, Season 4 Episode 5). April and Andy are adorable and perfectly in character as they describe their upcoming party: Andy is giddy and goofy, while April stares menacingly at the camera. All in all, it sounds like a fantastic time — take notes!
Andy: We are throwing a Halloween party at our house! It's going to be the greatest thing ever…
April: Someone will die.
Andy: Of fun!
April: And of MURDER.
Andy: There's going to be beer, pumpkins..
April: Bloody goblins.
Andy: Fake ones! It's going to be awesome. We have decorations..
April: Dead people that we just murdered.
Andy: Not murdered, but pictures of dead people from TV or movies..
April: Mutilated bodies.
Andy: But fake ones! Candy, dancing, tequila, all kinds of food and snacks..
April: Blood orphans.
Andy: No blood orphans. I… I don't know what that is.
So stock up on booze, print out gruesome images from your favorite horror movies, clear space for dancing, but please… no blood orphans.

Some great national and international sponsors are on board.
And quite a few bloggers and users.
I always try, often in vain, to get folks to join the fountain pen world, but in all the years I've tried, thus far, I believe I've only gotten two (2) real new users: a young man of 18 going off to college with a brand new Lamy Safari, and a senior citizen who had an older vintage pen she had inherited, which I fixed and encouraged her to use.
I also bought a Kaweco Ice for my 9 year old granddaughter, and it is my hope that she'll want my collection of fountain pens and use them.
From calligraphy-type pens like this Sailor
to a French pen I bought in Albuquerque, NM in 1992,
I have bought fountain pens as mementos, birthday presents to myself, on a whim, with forethought, and randomly.
I love the way they feel, and if lucky, how they write.

text: Media/ Resources/ HomeLife/ HomeLife: Empty Nest HomeLife The Empty Nest Years Kurt Bruner, The Center for Strong Families Achieving the long-term goal of raising and then launching a child (or children) is one of those milestones in life that can lead to surprising emotions. One day you might feel relieved to catch your breath after such an intense marathon and then the next day you miss the busyness—especially the ever-present relationships that went with it. Whether you are approaching, just hitting or deep into the empty nest season you are likely experiencing a range of feelings that can leave you asking yourself, "What next?" This would be a great time to take steps toward rediscovery in your life. STEP ONE: Rediscover your mission Psalm 90 gives empty nesters a sober reminder of the passage of time, but also a wise prayer for the Lord to "teach us to number our days aright" and to "establish the work of our hands." A major segment of your life up to this point has been committed to serving and guiding your children. That faithful and daily focus on individuals within your home has been preparing you for broader service. In I Timothy 3:5 Paul asks the question, "If anyone does not know how to manage his own family, how can he take care of God's church?" Another way to see this passage is that those who have managed their families have learned a couple of things about how to care for God's church—how to love, forgive, guide, lead and encourage. Such characteristics developed in the last season, as well as the additional time and resources that often come with an empty nest, can equip you for a whole new world of opportunities to fulfill your mission during this exciting season of life. STEP TWO: Rediscover your marriage Some marriages don't last until the empty nest years either because of death or divorce. If your marriage has made it, you may feel like the tsunami of kids that swept in and out has left you needing to rediscover the person to whom you said "I do" so long ago. Proverbs 5:18–19 says, "May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth." After this intense stretch of parenting, how can you find fresh ways to rejoice in the marriage of your youth and to "be ever captivated" by your spouse? You may just need to reintroduce yourself ("Hi, I'm that guy who asked you out a couple of decades ago," or "I'm that girl you met on the missions trip") and start rediscovering some of your earlier passions and dreams. STEP THREE: Rediscover your children During earlier parenting stages, you had some fairly clear lines of authority and control, especially when it came to your house rules. Those lines blur as your children become independent—even if they boomerang back home for a season. Now is the time when your influence is built upon a strong relationship rather than direct control. Your efforts will focus on coaching your children into self sufficiency and into pursuing marriage and building families of their own. This season requires a lot of trust because "sideline coaching" is all you can offer rather than step-by-step direction. But this season also gives you a vantage point to see the time and effort you've invested into your children in a different light—especially as they begin to take ownership of the values you've tried to instill (Psalm 78:3–7) and watch them discover God's plan for their lives.

Four journalists arrested while covering racial unrest in Ferguson, Missouri, last year filed a lawsuit Monday claiming they were battered and falsely arrested by police trying to hinder their ability to cover the protests.
The journalists claim in their lawsuit that police officers used excessive force and intimidation tactics, including shooting at them with rubber bullets, to try to stop the journalists from recording police activity.
Sometimes violent protests erupted in Ferguson, a St. Louis suburb, after the Aug. 9 fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager by a white police officer. Protesters from around the country converged on the small community, and the state brought in police officers from around the region, as well as the National Guard, to try to quell the unrest.
The lawsuit, which was filed in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, names as defendants the St. Louis County Police Department, and 20 of its officers who were sent into Ferguson to help provide security, as well as St. Louis County.
The suit was brought by Ryan Devereaux, a journalist with Intercept/First Look Media; Lukas Hermsmeier, a freelance journalist for German news outlets; Ansgar Graw, a political correspondent for German news outlets; and Frank Herrmann, a correspondent for German newspapers.
There was no immediate comment from St. Louis County or the police department.
The lawsuit does not name the 20 officers sued as defendants, but states that they were working on Aug. 18 and/or Aug. 19 when they encountered the plaintiffs.
Devereaux and Hermsmeier claim they had been interviewing protesters and were attempting to return to their car when police shot them with rubber bullets and then arrested them and left them in handcuffs for several hours.
Graw and Herrmann claim they were attempting to interview people and take photos just before they were also arrested and detained in painful plastic handcuffs that left their hands numb.
The lawsuit claims the actions against the journalists were part of a "concerted effort to suppress constitutionally protected newsgathering."

Kimi Raikkonen off-track
| Source: autosport.com |
Kimi Raikkonen has always been his own man, and when he tired of F1 in 2009, he set off for a two-year sabbatical. AUTOSPORT looks back at his rallying, NASCAR and sportscar adventures.
The Iceman became the Snowman pretty quickly. Shortly after starting his very first event with the Citroen C4 WRC in 2010 – the Arctic Rally in Finland, a warm-up for Rally Sweden – spectators were treated to the surreal sight of the 2007 Formula 1 world champion digging his own car out of a snowbank.
That would never have happened at Ferrari. But it was a skill that Raikkonen was to practise again on Rally Sweden itself a couple of weeks later, where the icy stages also take no prisoners. The man who Sir Stirling Moss once described as "the fastest driver in the world" turned out to be a dab hand with a shovel as well.
Of course, this was far from being Raikkonen's first foray into world rallying – that took place on his home Rally Finland in 2009, at the wheel of a Super 2000 Abarth Grande Punto.
He was straight into the top three, fighting with future Intercontinental Rally Challenge and Super 2000 champion Juho Hanninen and Anton Alen, a former 1000 Lakes Group N class winner and son of rally legend Markku. Kimi is very close to the Alen family – one of his houses in Finland is just across the road from Markku's – so he probably picked up a few tips.
Raikkonen undoubtedly felt his stunning performance in Finland would translate seamlessly into something similar in the World Rally Car category. Plenty of others thought exactly the same. But being competitive in the Super 2000 class is one thing, taking on Sebastien Loeb in the same car is another.
To be fair to Raikkonen, he approached it with an open mind. "I've always admired rally drivers for their skills and bravery," he said at the time. "I just wanted to see if I could do it myself."
It only took him three WRC events to finish in the points (with eighth in Jordan), and on the following round he scored what would remain his best result: fifth in Turkey.
That event, as Europe lay beneath an ash cloud that grounded aviation, was the prelude to an interesting journey home for most people. Apart from Kimi that is, who somehow managed to persuade his pilot to take off. He was relaxing at home before most of his Citroen colleagues had thought about boarding their coach back to Paris. It took them three days.
There were some low points as well. Raikkonen let out an unmanly yelp as his car went off the edge in El Cubilete, Mexico, followed by a string of words that are unprintable but extremely amusing.
While Kimi's co-driver Kaj Lindstrom no doubt got sick of a scene acted out at hotels around the world most mornings – every Citroen driver (bar one) sitting patiently in the minibus, waiting to leave, while Lindstrom frantically called Kimi's room from reception – Loeb was quite chuffed. "It's good, because normally it's me who is late," he pointed out – directly from the minibus.
Kimi's first and only fastest stage time came on the 2010 Rally Germany's Circus Maximus, a spectator superspecial around the Porta Nigra – an ancient Roman gate – in Trier.
For his second season in the WRC, Raikkonen's budget was significantly reduced, forcing him to go with his own team – Ice1 Racing – in a Citroen DS3 WRC funded by a variety of private sponsors. He didn't complete a full season, tackling nine events in total with a best result of sixth in Jordan and Germany.
Under the WRC Team rules, he was obliged to contest two events outside Europe, and his decision to skip Rally Australia because it was "a long way" fell foul of that regulation.
Unsurprisingly, the Australian stewards did not accept the geographical location of their event as a mitigating circumstance and Ice1 Racing was excluded from the teams' championship (although Raikkonen finished 10th in the drivers' standings, for the second year running).
Then came the call to Lotus, but Kimi doesn't think he would be where he is today without his two years in rallying.
"You cannot compare the two and say that this definitely helped," he points out. "But when I stopped in F1 I was ready to do something different and challenge myself, and without that I don't think I'd have come back."
Raikkonen might not have had the results he wanted in the WRC, but he brought some real star quality to the championship with an army of passionate fans.
To our knowledge, Ken Block is the only other rally driver who has been followed into the toilet and photographed there… David Evans
With his rallying sojourn fraying at the seams, Raikkonen spent a month in the US in 2011, running two tests and two races with Kyle Busch Motorsports.
His first experience of NASCAR-style machinery came in a truck test at the half-mile Gresham Motorsports Park oval in Georgia. And it didn't take long for Kimi to make an impression on the team.
"A lot of time when we test, the driver will go out and mosey around for a couple of laps to get their bearings and get familiar with the racetrack," says KBM team manager Rick Ren.
"He didn't do that. When he went down pitroad he was wide open and that just shows his ability and confidence in his car control. I'm not used to people doing that."
A further test followed at Rockingham, before Raikkonen made his Truck Series debut around the 1.5-mile Charlotte Motor Speedway. Kimi finished 15th and a week later contested the Nationwide race at the same track in a car run by KBM, but entered by Joe Nemechek's team.
"The truck race didn't go as good as I hoped it would, but the car race was going very well until he had a pitroad speeding penalty," Ren recalls.
"I was really impressed during the Nationwide race. Our car was not nearly as good as what it could have been, he was driving the wheels off that thing and doing a very good job.
"It just ended up being not quite such a good day. We were running about seventh and that's very respectable."
But the race wasn't without its dramas. As anyone who heard Kimi's Abu Dhabi radio chat is aware, he knows what he's doing – even if that means failing to wear the correct protective gear…
"When he first came here I looked at his shoes and I told him, 'I don't think you'll be able to run those shoes over here' and he's like, 'Yeah, yeah, yeah that's what I always race with', so he didn't want to put the heat shields on. The floorboards get exceptionally hot in NASCAR vehicles, maybe 125-130 degrees.
"But he didn't want to put his booties on as we call them and we are a bit into the race and he comes on the radio and says, 'My feet are getting very hot! Never mind, I will put them out the window!'
"I thought that was the funniest thing I ever heard on the pitbox. And that was the only time he brought it up in the whole race."
The team was keen to run Raikkonen in more races, but he never returned its call. Andrew van de Burgt
Peugeot motorsport boss Olivier Quesnel had long since promised Kimi Raikkonen, then competing in World Rallying with sister marque Citroen, a go in one of his 908 HDi LMP1 turbodiesels and duly delivered in August 2011.
Quesnel, who was in charge of both marques, always denied that there was anything more to the test, but insiders insist that an outing at the Le Mans 24 Hours was discussed at some point. And quite rightly so after Raikkonen's performance during his short try-out at Motorland Aragon.
"Kimi was quick straight out of the box," says one of Peugeot's retinue of drivers. "He got in the car and matched the quickest time of the test inside four laps.
"He arrived late, I think, didn't make any fuss and didn't bother too much about the seating position, and bang, he did the time. He did around 25 laps and then went home."
Raikkonen apparently liked the car, apart from its powersteering, but any chance of a race outing as good as disappeared three months later when it was announced he'd be returning to F1 with Lotus.
And then it disappeared for good when Peugeot called time on its sportscar programme another couple of months after that.
By Gary Watkins
Kimi on his LeMans experience (from F1Racing magazine Nov 2011 issue):
"The Le Mans car was interesting but, to be honest, the steering was quite sh*t and the windscreen was really strange – it sort of distorts the view… maybe because it's very round"
"I can't imagine what it's like with oil and mess after you've been racing for a long time. But I enjoyed the experience and the car felt good."
Kimi on Team Radio during Nascar:
"Biggest problem is my foot. It's burning. I don't understand how this car can be so hot. My ass is even burning in here!"
"They [the feet] are burning, but I get them off the floor so it's better. Need drink."
Räikkönen's development in rally convinced Hirvonen and Latvala

Mikko Hirvonen and Jari-Matti Latvala both believe that Kimi Räikkönen's results would also had improved on rally paths, had Kimi continued in WRC for the third season.
Räikkönen returned to F1 after two years in rally and he drove for the first time during his whole career all the races from start to finish. After his rallying experience Kimi was better than ever before in all weather conditions. (more…)
Raikkonen wants to make rally return "for fun"
Source: autosport.com
Kimi Raikkonen is keen to return to rallying "for fun" after his Formula 1 career is over.
The 32-year-old Finn has no plans to walk away from grand prix racing and has impressed on his comeback after two years competing in the World Rally Championship.
But when his time in F1 does come to an end in the future, he wants to try his hand at rallying again.
"I will do it for fun," Raikkonen told AUTOSPORT. "The one reason why I wanted to do it in the first place was to see if I can do it or not.
"I'm a big fan of it and I always thought it was so difficult that I wanted to see what happens.
"I still want to improve in it and try to do well. It's something that, when I'm a bit older, I can do and have fun with. I will definitely do it when I have more time.
"I enjoy both [rallying and F1]. I would like to do both of them at the same time but because of timetables, schedules and other reasons it's not possible."
Raikkonen denied the suggestion that his return to F1 was indicative that he has lost interest in rallying.
He was keen to contest Rally Finland earlier this year but was prevented from doing so by his Lotus team.
But Raikkonen did admit that he missed the wheel-to-wheel aspect of racing.
"It's not that I lost interest in rallying," said Raikkonen. "It's just that I've always raced in my life and when you race against each other it's different to just doing times.
"I enjoy racing against people. It's why I came back, to have a fight against others.
"It's completely different to last year in rallying. When I did NASCAR [in 2011] I enjoyed it a lot and even though it is very different to F1, it's still racing against each other.
"I had a good time. I kind of missed it [racing]."
Coming up next from Autosport:
@eddstrawF1: The August 30 issue of AUTOSPORT will be one for Kimi Raikkonen fans. Just putting the finishing touches on a story about him.
Lotus: No Rally Finland for Kimi
Source: autosport.com
Kimi Raikkonen will not be allowed to take part in Rally Finland later this year, Autosport has learned, with his team bosses unwilling to release him from his commitments to the Lotus Formula 1 team.
The former world champion had sought clearance to make a one-off return to the WRC, even though it is understood his F1 contract forbids him from taking part in rallying.
However, following talks between Raikkonen and his boss Eric Boullier in Monaco, he was informed that the memory Robert Kubica's rally crash last year meant the team was not prepared to allow him to compete.
Boullier told Autosport: "I sat down with Kimi earlier today and we talked about it.
"His contract does not allow him to go rallying and, after what happened with Robert, this team could not let him do it.
"He fully understands the situation, so the matter is closed now."
Kubica was badly injured in an Italian rally crash in February last year, shortly after the first pre-season F1 test. His injuries forced him out for the season and there remain doubts about whether or not he will be able to make an F1 return.
Raikkonen competed in the WRC in 2010 and '11 before deciding to come back to F1 for this season.

WALHT: visualise from a text.
The soft fur of the dog felt like silk against my skin and her black coloring glistened as it absorbed the sunlight, reflecting it back as a perfect, deep, dark mirror.
We were learning how to visualise from a text. We had to read a piece of text then draw a picture of it. I thought that I was successful because I followed the success criteria. The visualising was easy but when it came to drawing the actual picture that was tricky. I was also able to make inferences from the text which proved that last week's learning actually helped. Next I would like to learn if it is harder to do I it with longer texts or shorter.
I am a Year 8 student at Glen Innes School in Auckland, New Zealand. I am in Room 6 and my teacher is Miss Donaldson.

Due to sickness a late Championship final saw the Ladies Singles played between Sue Purton and Nicky Downs. Sue was playing to retain her title and was in good form. Unfortunately for Nicky, nerves and the delay in playing the final did not helped her recapture her semi-final form. This combination of factors resulted in an easy 11-2, 11-2, 11-7 for Sue to record her sixth ladies singles title.
A mid table match in Division 1 pitted fifth placed Hanson Jaguars against fourth placed Hanson Cougars with the points going to Jaguars 20 – 19. However this was a draw in sets and a moral victory for Cougars as Gerry Vaughan injured his bat hand in the warm up so only attempted one set. Nick George (Cougars) started well with a good 9-11, 11-8, 11-9, 9-11, 8-11 win against Trevor Whitelock and proceeded to win two sets. However he came a cropper later when going down 11-6, 8-11, 8-11, 11-7, 11-7 to Graham Audin who played very steadily. Trevor came back with a good win against Chris Stockdale (Cougars) 8-11, 12-10, 7-11, 11-5, 12-10, but Chris won his other two sets. With Gerry conceding his sets Cougars needed to win the doubles 3-0 to equal Jaguars points' total. Unfortunately Trevor & Sue Purton put up stiff opposition, so Nick & Chris only managed to win 7-11, 11-3, 10-12, 10-12, to lose the match by one point.
Hanson Panthers confirmed their bottom place with a 2 – 30 loss to third placed Hanson 'A'. Despite Dave Broomfield (Panthers) battling hard he could not stop Dan Geary, Peter Henderson and Steve Rollason winning all their sets. He did manage to prolong the match by taking Steve to five games before losing 11-6, 11-6, 9-11, 2-11, 6-11.

House in MelgaçoArchitecture | 20 Mar 2017
A project by Nuno Brandão Costa
The project of the house in Melgaço, in the Nothern Portugal, had its origin in pre-existing little rural stone building, that would have housed a family of 11 people. Nuno Brandão Costa's plan, in collaboration with Filipa Júlio and Joanna Katherine Guimarães, was to expand the found ruins.
Brandão Costa architectural firm says: "The powerful landscape and the character of the existing ruin suggested an extension to the house like a timeless construction". The dining and cooking areas split between two floors, united by an interior staircase on the northern façade. The living room and three bedrooms are on the expanded area, underground, but with natural light due to the opening of a courtyard on the east and the extension of the original façade, on the west.
Other three small buildings were built "to complete domestic life". A concrete canopy, a glazed building – for a garden kitchen – and a swimming pool "enclosed by a dressed stone wall to accommodate the tank".

Oil Majors' $100 Hangover Hurts Profit as Cost Cuts Fall Short
(Bloomberg) -- The world's biggest oil companies, set to report their worst quarterly earnings in more than a decade, are finding their cost-cutting efforts haven't matched the decline in crude prices over the past two years.
While producers have been deferring projects, eliminating jobs and freezing salaries, the process will take three years to complete, according to Barclays Plc's Lydia Rainforth. In the meantime, profits are being hammered.
"A lot of work still needs to be done on costs," Rainforth, a London-based oil sector analyst, said by phone. "It's a reflection of how much costs had piled up and how long a process this is."
For producers from Royal Dutch Shell Plc to Chevron Corp., reeling under the threat of credit-rating downgrades, slashing costs is the surest way of protecting balance sheets. Still, reversing course is proving painful after $100 oil persuaded companies to pump money into expensive areas in search of new deposits, hire more people and rent rigs and services at record rates. Productivity suffered.
Shell, Europe's biggest oil company, had operating costs of $14.70 a barrel last year when Brent crude averaged $53.60, Barclays said in a report last month. That's more than double the $6-a-barrel cost in 2005, the last time oil averaged in the $50s, according to the report. BP Plc's operating expense was $10.40 last year compared with $3.60 in 2005, according to Barclays. The operating costs don't include capital spending, taxes and royalties paid by producers.
Earnings Outlook
After rising every year from 2010 to 2014, Shell's costs fell 15 percent last year, according to Barclays. BP's dropped 19 percent.
That's not been enough to counter the rout in oil prices.
BP is expected to post an adjusted loss for the first time since the Gulf of Mexico oil spill in 2010, when it reports first-quarter results on April 26, according to analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg. Shell, reporting on May 4, is likely to post its weakest adjusted profit in more than a decade.
Exxon Mobil Corp., the world's biggest oil company, will report the lowest quarterly profit in more than two decades on April 29, according to analysts estimates. Chevron is estimated to report a second consecutive loss the same day. Total SA's first-quarter adjusted net income is predicted to be the lowest since 2001.
The extent of the work facing oil-major CEOs can be seen at BP. While the British producer's boss Bob Dudley was one of the first to prepare for the downturn, it still took BP most of 2014 and 2015 to identify where costs could be cut, with full implementation only coming this year, Rainforth said.
The London-based company said in February it had reduced annual cash costs by $3.4 billion compared with 2014 and expected them to be about $7 billion lower in 2017. A BP spokesman declined to comment further.
Shell plans to reduce operating expenditure by $3 billion in 2016 after cutting it by $4 billion last year. The company declined to comment beyond reiterating that it has options to further reduce spending should conditions warrant it. Exxon and Chevron declined to comment.
Total is targeting spending on operating its exploration and production business of $6.50 a barrel of oil equivalent this year, after cutting that to $7.40 last year from $9.90 in 2014, according to a company presentation in February.

Gone are the days when women were delegated as simple housewives, homemakers and nurturers. Today's woman is no longer expected to just stay home, keep the house tidy, take care of the children and wait at home for the hubby with a warm meal. Of course there are still women who choose to do just that, and there is nothing wrong with it. But today, women have more choices and today's society is more accepting of the different roles that a woman can take on.
May it be in the corporate world, or in private business, more and more women are emerging to be just as successful as the opposite gender. Women are no longer viewed as the weaker sex, in fact, the world is now more recognizant of how strong and powerful a woman can be.
I speak as one, a woman entrepreneur. My good friend Liz, is another. We are just two of the many women who have chosen to do more outside of the home, and can realistically say, are successful at it.
Clara Freema, a puplished writer, professional nurse and life coach wrote about women entrepreneurs in the July issue of Small Business CEO Online Magazine. Her articles give us an insight into the mind of the businesswoman, and lists down Facts to Consider When They Do It for Themselves. Small Business CEO Online Magazine encourages people to start their own business and give support to people who have already started by sharing tips, market trends and success stories of other small business entrepreneurs.
Why women "do it"
For Clara, a woman's reasons for going into her own entrepreneurial endeavor are simple. In the woman's mind:
1. Working for other people is NOT (emphasis) my birthright
2. Companies will never pay me what I'm worth
3. I cannot pursue my dreams working for other people
4. Do what you love and the money will follow.
I share the exact same sentiments. When I started out, I knew I had strengths and capabilities that I could capitalize on. Strengths and capabilities, that if were devoted to an employer, could not possibly be paid the appropriate compensation. I also knew that having to be answerable to a boss would just curtail my passion and limit my ideas. I decided that the best way to live and do something I love was to do things for myself. And so I jumped, and became a woman entrepreneur.
Being your own boss
A woman knows that aside from raising the children and keeping house, she is also expected to augment the family income to the best of her ability. This is why more women pursue higher studies and training, to be able to compete in the male-dominated corporate world. And as the woman gets ahead, there comes a point in her life when she is faced with choices of priority – my career, or my family. Choosing the family over office politics is one of the reasons why women decide to enter into private business.
An article in Bloomberg Businessweek, by Francesca di Meglio, shares women entrepreneurs' success stories and reasons why they went into business in the first place:
"Having the flexibility to create your own schedule, which makes it easier to have a family and a career, also encourages women to become their own bosses. "I refused to outsource the upbringing of children," says Corinne Wayshak, CEO of Groovy Goddess in Sunnyvale, Calif. "I found the entrepreneurial path as a way to be a leader who had the power to engender a more family-oriented environment."
A clear example of a woman choosing family over personal career, and at the same time, being a productive member of society by pursuing her own dreams.
Knowing your real value
A woman knows the might of her capabilities. She knows her strong points and is aware of the areas where she can be an asset. A woman knows what she can do and the level of intensity she can put into it. In simple terms, a woman knows her real value. J This is why women entrepreneurs make a go at their own business. When they realize that the time, effort and energy they put into an endeavour can never be appropriately compensated when they are someone's employee.
And what better endeavour is there than to devoting your time and energies on fulfilling a dream, making a passion alive, and enjoying every minute of it! That, to me, is the most priceless part of it.
Making that small idea big
All it takes, really, is a small idea. Study it, turn it around in your head, explore the possibilities, do your research, and assess if you can confidently turn your small idea into something big. Start with realistic goals, do your thing, and watch it grow.
Needless to say, I'm not saying that for these reasons, women should just take that leap of faith and jump into the entrepreneurial bandwagon. A lot of thought and preparation should be put into it. Clara gives a straightforward suggestion on how to go about it: "Starting your own business is a favorable pursuit. However, there are tools to learn before jumping on the bandwagon. Take stock of your financial affordability (staying power) Identify your product. Study the Market for such a product. Study the experts, and begin a business plan".
Let's go, women! Let's show the world the power and might of a true woman of the world.
Proud to be a woman entrepreneur,

LAFAYETTE — Perseverance was the name of the game for everyone on Saturday at the Centaurus Invitational.
Mother Nature dictated a majority of the specifics, causing a couple of teams to bow out before play -- which was scheduled to start at 8 a.m. -- finally got underway just before noon.
Those that stuck around were rewarded with not only what turned out to be a magnificent day, but equally good tennis across the board.
The two biggest beneficiaries of the day were Dawson and Boulder, which turned the tournament into basically their second dual of the season.
The Mustangs, by virtue of victories at No. 2 and 3 singles as well as the same positions at doubles, took home the team title.
"It was great day and this is a great way to end it," said Dawson coach Kathy Benninghoff, whose team gathered at the school at 6:30 a.m. "We had some soft spots today, but we had some great spots and it was just enough to win."
Dawson, which will be a part of the new Class 3A tournament field next month in Greeley, is beginning to hit their stride team-wise and Saturday's effort will go a long way into building confidence going forward not only into the regional and state tournament, but also in next week's dual against 3A favorites Colorado Academy.
"I feel really good about where we are and I feel like we can go in to (Colorado Academy) and have a super competitive match," Benninghoff said. "We'd like to win it, and we feel like we can make some noise."
Especially on the doubles side, where the Mustangs have been strong for years.
On Saturday, in addition to straight set singles wins for Bridget Bell (No. 2) and Maggie Berry (No. 3), Dawson had to grind out it's two doubles wins.
The No. 2 team of Allie Blank and Isabelle Shehan split sets with the Boulder tandem of Fiona Quinn and Melissa Hornung before out-lasting them 6-3 in the third set, which drew a big crowd at Court 8.
It wasn't all bad news for Boulder, which has shown steady improvement since the beginning of the season when head coach Elizebth Korevaar wasn't sure what the Panthers truly had in terms of talent.
Her No. 1 doubles team of Katherine Lapp and Ellie Johnson, as well as her No. 4 tandem of Keeva Donohue and Emily Paul, rolled to a straight set victory in the finals.
Panthers freshman No. 1 Gigi Jensen and Dawson senior Isha Banjeree played an epic three set match in the semifinals that went to Jensen 6-2 in the third.
Jensen didn't get to celebrate too long, before she had to take the court against Sterling's Jenna Maxwell.
"I think physically I am more tired than I am mentally, especially with this heat," said Jensen, who after her 6-2, 6-4 defeat had logged over 34,000 steps on her fitness tracker. "I knew I had to keep myself afloat to play that match.
"I feel good about where I am (at this point in the season) considering everything is still so new. This was an eye-opener today that even if you're tired, they are going to make you run if you want to or not and you have to be able to sustain a lot to get what you want."

Last month, when I confirmed I was going to be in Samoa end of September I made a mental note to buy tickets for a couple of Manu Samoa's games for the Rugby World Cup, then I did what I always do...I forgot. I remembered just this past Friday when I set my alarm for Samoa vs Australia game the following day on Saturday but did my classic, I'll do it later.
Following the fantastic victory by our boys in blue over the Wallabies, everyone has been snatching up tickets and now all the tickets for Samoa vs South Africa, one of the main games I wanted to see are all sold out...ARRGHHHHHHHHHH. To say I am p*ssed off is an understatement.
I've got my ticket for the Wales game, waiting on a Fijian friend to find out where he is sitting for the Samoa vs Fiji game so I can sit with him...I don't know any friends who will be at the RWC. Four years ago, I went to the world cup in France 2007 with my cousins and made some new life friends. None of them will be there and although it's probably going to be a little lonely on my own, I'd rather be there alone and watching the Manu on my own than not at all.
I love Rugby with a passion and mostly when my Samoan boys play. I grew up making sandwiches at 5am for the Moata'a rugby boys who have produced some great Manu players in their time and continue to do so today. It didn't matter how early it was on a Saturday morning, we'd be in the kitchen with my mum, dad and sister (my younger siblings could not be trusted with handling food that early in the morning, plus they must have only been 4 and 9) boiling eggs, mashing elegi with mayonnaise, spooning spaghetti onto bread. And of course I was grumbling about why I had to do it, what about their families and I bet no on else's daughter had to do this, THAT early in the morning and it's not like they even let me play with them during training. We lived at Nu'u and my dad would be at Lynns shop at opening time ready to pick up 20 loaves of fresh baked bread and raro for the cooler of drink I would make. Dad was always very involved with the Rugby Union and the Referee association. In his youth he played for Moata'a club and was assistant coach with auntie Marina when we returned to Samoa in 1990. I remember having all the Manu Samoa jerseys in boxes at our house one year and asking my dad if I could have one. His raised eyebrow was the only answer he gave, and the only one I needed! He taught me to love this game as he did. Home work was done on the fields at PloyTech Vaivase or Apia Park watching scrums, line outs and listening to the boys joke around. If I was lucky I'd be allowed to run around with them in my tatty shorts and equally tatty t-shirt(much to my mothers displeasure!)
Recently my cousin called me a groupie and I wasn't very happy with this name association - I started wondering if other people dared think this of me. Groupies whether it is fair or not, to me, conjures up a negative image of people especially women. I don't follow around the Manu Samoa team to meet the team players and get their autographs. I don't lie in hope of certain advances being made as is the image a groupie would suggest nor do I go out of my way to befriend them for status. I have a passion for the game, I have a desire to see the team do well and dominate world wide which I have always held the belief they could do. There are people who love to shop for clothes, others love to drink, some collect cars, stamps etc etc. I LOVE to watch our Manu Samoa live in person(both 7's and 15's) if possible and to cheer the team on with all my heart and soul. There is nothing like the heart thumping adrenaline rush as you watch a strategy unfold before you, the gasps and winces as bodies crunch from well placed (sometimes not so well placed) tackles. The unified joy at a score, the uproar of disbelief at a referees bad call and the intimacy of 1000's of people. I am not a groupie, I am part of the passion that fuels our team. I am a part of something bigger than myself, a network of belief that runs through the oceans from one Samoan to another, that celebrates our defeats and our triumphs, that no matter how bad the odds or the results, I am a part of the Faith that knows we will soldier on brick wall and all. Please don't mistaken me for anyone other than a proud Samoan who loves the game and who has been blessed with the chance to live both my father's and my own dreams.
Faamalosi Manu! :)

I had so many comments from sweet mommas in need of sleep that it actually pains me to give only ONE of these magic sleepsuits away!
Then again… I had to shell out my own dough for mine too :)
{Seriously, baby boy had a 2 1/2 hour nap in his sleepsuit yesterday and I had to WAKE HIM UP to take him to the sitter's before work… that NEVER use to happen pre-sleepsuit. Who knows how long he could have slept?!}
I also had several comments/questions about the wearability of the suit in the warmer months and if he gets hot. The sleepsuit does have some weight to it, like a baby comforter – which is really where the whole "magic" of it comes in to play. Take a baby that loves being swaddled and remove his nice cozy cocoon away from him, you're asking for trouble!
The short answer: no, he does not get too hot in the least.
It was still cold when he started wearing it and he was in full long sleeved, footy pajamas underneath the suit. Within a matter of days, our weather went from snow to 70/80 degrees and he now wears a onsesie only inside the suit, with or without socks. I have never seen one drop of perspiration on him when he wakes up he never acts uncomfortable. On the other hand, he sweats like crazy in his carseat, so I know he has the propensity to sweat if he's the least bit overheated, which just confirms the fact that wearing the sleepsuit is like sleeping in "baby bear soup" ;)
Without further adieu, the winner of Baby Merlin's Magic Sleepsuit is comment #103!
Brittany Renee said:
I NEED this sleep suit! I am sooo intrigued to see if this will work on my little one. He only sleeps for maybe an hour and a half at night. :o( I'm beginning to lose my mind...
I feel your pain, girl. Email me { robertslove (at) live (dot) com } the address you would like this shipped to and I hope and pray you'll receive the answer to your sleep prayers SOON!
Lastly, I also had several comments asking about Part 2 of Houston's birth story…
God willing, it will be here next week.
I am the most shameful procrastinator OF ALL and I sincerely apologize for leaving you hanging :(
On a brighter note, this morning I uploaded THE photo album of pictures from Houston's Birth Day on the blog's Facebook page.
Precious pictures like these two, my favorites:
Daddy cutting the cord while our sweet angel takes his first breaths… does it get any sweeter?
Check them out if you wish and "Like" our page while you're there because…
I like to be liked.
There, I said it.
Have a lovely weekend!
We'll be visiting family to have an early Easter celebration since momma has to work Easter weekend.
How special must Houston be if the Easter bunny is going to come 2 weeks early just for him?!

All of the last-minute tips you need for a Spring wedding.
Photography: O'Malley Photographers
The days are getting longer and flowers are blooming, meaning the perfect weather for a spring wedding is finally here. If you're not one for snow or have dreams of an outdoor ceremony and reception, then this season is perfect for your special day. With extended hours of sunshine, green grass, and colorful flowers making their long-awaited debut, there's a lot to work with when putting all of the plans together. There are a ton of floral options to consider, various outdoor wedding venues to choose from, and lots of small (but important!) decorations you can add to make your celebration even more extravagant, like pops of color here and there and even edible flowers to brighten up your dishes.
But of course, with warmer months approaching and the beginning of wedding season nearly here, couples will want to plan strategically to take advantage of everything the warmer months have to offer. You'll want to make sure to plan the day with the sun's schedule in mind, come up with a way to accommodate your guests in the event of less than ideal weather, and make sure that everyone is taken care of throughout the party. Luckily, there are bunch of ways to plan ahead so that everything goes smoothly, and so that your day speaks of the season. With warmer temps and florals coming back into bloom, here are some last minute ideas you can add to make your seasonal wedding day even better than you've been imagining.
Think About Opportunities to Take Care of Your Guests
"Re-think the scenes of your day and consider if every opportunity to make guests feel especially welcomed are taken care of. Don't hesitate to ask your catering or bartending team if they can tray pass cocktails or sparkling water before your ceremony, especially welcomed if the weather is growing warmer. Not only does this provide a welcoming ambiance, but it signifies that warmer days (and garden parties) are on the horizon." —Aleah & Nick Valley, Owners, Valley & Company Events

Add Last Minute Spring Touches
"A napkin treatment showcasing a sprig of thyme or rosemary is a beautiful way to say, 'it's spring.'" —Kate Ryan & Chelsea Dillon, Partners, Gold Leaf Event Design & Production

Don't Let Weather Affect the Beauty of Your Event
"You know the old adage for April and what it brings? It has nothing on you if you're properly prepared. Hop online and source a solid handful (25+) of wood-handled solid golf umbrellas in any shade you'd like (we love navy or white!) so your guests and your wedding party are über-mobile and chic, even in a Spring shower."—Calder Clark, Owner & Creative Director, Calder Clark

Reevaluate Your Timeline for the Sun
"Spring means longer days and later sunsets so be sure to work with your photographer to find time to sneak outside during your reception to grab some sunset photos. Make sure you don't plan any formal toasts or significant dances during this time and it will be easy to do." —Tracie Domino, Founder & Creative Director, Tracie Domino Events

Think Pink
"Soft pinks are so elegant and very appropriate for a spring wedding. Wrapping a beautiful pastel ribbon around your bouquet, like this one from Flowers Claire Marie, can bring the sense of Spring to any wedding." —Amy Nichols, Owner, Amy Nichols Special Events.

Have Your Cake & Eat It Too
"If you're planning a spring wedding, you should be tasting cake right about now. Don't be afraid to include fun flavors like orange or lemon to zest up your special day!" —Julian Leaver of The Dapper Diplomat
Photography: Amy & Stuart Photography7 of 11
Accentuate the Beauty of Your Venue
"If you are lucky enough to have a water feature at your venue, fill it with spring blooms or rose petals to signal that spring has sprung! Use larger blooms such as garden roses, phalaenopsis orchids or chrysanthemums (yes, we love fluffy mums!) so they stay atop the water. Add dripless, floating candles to enhance the look in the evening. But remember, if dropping blooms into a pool, be sure to turn off the pool filter and make sure there is a net around at the end of the night to easily swoop up the blooms!" —Heidi Mayne, Owner, Red25 Events.

Plan for Mother Nature
"Make room in your budget for a last minute tent rental. Spring is beautiful, but unpredictable to say the least. For a spring wedding, you can count on a passing spring shower, but your guests can still enjoy the beautiful spring weather under a clear-top tent in our courtyard." —Demi Meeker, Senior Event Manager, Cannon Green

Use Edible Flowers to Brighten Up Dishes
"I love using edible flowers when the weather warms up. Try incorporating them into salads or on trendy toast. Pansies work especially well with beets, roses with seafood, and chive blossoms with cheese." —Melissa Chickerneo, Chef de Cuisine, Blue Plate Catering
Photography: Matthew Moore Photography10 of 11
Brighten Up Your Blooms
"We love to allow our creativity to run wild and bright for our spring weddings. Bouquets have more flexibility and colors should never be limited. Spring is a time for renewed life, so we encourage greenery and bright blooms to impact every moment of your special day." —Elizabeth McKellar, Owner & Creative Director, The Nouveau Romantics

Incorporate Seasonal Produce into Your Menu
"Work with your caterer, specifically their chef, to incorporate seasonal produce into your menus. Wedding season is an incredibly exciting time for a bounty of fruits and vegetables, celebrate those special items that are only around for a short period of time—things like chive blossoms, rhubarb, ramps, fava beans, baby artichokes, black raspberries, currants and cape gooseberries. Locally grown fruits and vegetables are harvested at their peak and take less time to get to the plate—which means they're the most flavorful. Use your menu as an opportunity to highlight the best of the season." —John Karangis, Executive Chef, Union Square Events

First off, my sincere apologies for last week and the mad rush it was to email home with a 3 minute time bomb flashing at your face at an Internet cafe where you have no more change to add time and spell check wants to change everything you want to say in Turkish. Golly I hope the email was comprehendible.
Last Monday we decided then and there that the week would be a great week and that nothing out there would stop us from having a great week. Such a mentality has power to give you according to your desires. This week was a testimony to that.
We were able to recontact investigators that had dropped us and taught a few lessons, and the biggest one of them being JONES. Hallelujah. He had been traveling the last few weeks but we found him home and he expressed his desire to still be baptized so we took our ward mission leader Bro. Scherf on joint teach and taught about faith and repentance from the 3rd lesson. Bro Scherf testified of his experience of repentance before baptism and I know that the Spirit touched Jones and that it will help him continue progressing.
|Delft and Den Haag
Wednesday heaven showered us with rays of Sunshine. President invited us over for lunch so we ate with him and zuster Robinson and said our goodbyes because they leave on the 1st. Really hard and strange but it is exciting for them to go back after 3 years of sheer dedicated service. I love them so much. We were contacting around the beautiful centrum then got a text from our investigator 10 minutes before our member lesson saying she was sorry for the notice but her boyfriend didn't like that we were teaching her and threw her Book of Mormon away. We want to go over there and pep talk her into being a strong and independent woman but the setting is not too appropriate for that haha after all her name is Destiny, and she was just on the right path to finding hers...
So our joint teach came away and was awesome enough to do some look ups with us of people we had contacted the day before. Heavenly Father knew of the effort we had taken and 2 of those potentials let us in on the spot and we taught the Restoration with Ilyza with us on joint teach! So awesome to see such miracles when you do all you can to move the work forth. Awesome day.
This week we were in Groningen. (good luck finding that one on the map it is basically Germany) and it was a grand time. We actually got to meet with a woman named Nina and her husband and 2 little girls, of which are a referral from a Zuster in Dordrecht that I received after our Rotterdam performance back in April. It was sooo cool to go teach them and help her husband who has been trying to find faith for his wife who is so spiritually sensitive and loves the zuster missionaries there. It was amazing.
Ahhh we met with such cool members in Groningen. I love that ward simply because it is functional haha so sad but the members JUST GET IT. Nothing is better than when members just get it and nothing comes before living and moving the Gospel forward. Priceless.
We head to Leeuwarden this week now. Where they speak Fries. Not a dialect, not an accent. Another language. Hooray.
But the DRIVE up to Groningen is magnificent. Ah it is so beautiful. Last night coming home the sun peeked through the crazy Holland clouds and kissed the richly green landscape with the windmills and canals and it was simply out of this world.
WE are going to play beach volleyball right now and it is raining and windy. There is no such thing as summer in Holland. Seriously. You all say it is like 100 back in the states and you are boasting. That's really cold of you. Shoutout to my sweats and sweaters because it is freezing here.
The strength of the members here is unbelievable. Once again. This continent is under the refiner's fire in regards to religion and standards yet the members in Belgium and the Netherlands all take the heat and are shaped into some of the most incredible people I have ever had the pleasure to meet.
I hope you had a good week. Shoutout to all the Father's back home for Father's day! Love you Dad thank you for all you do and the prayers and love you send. It is felt and seen in everyday miracles.
Also I got a flashlight as a father's day gift in Leeuwarden Sunday. Haha not a father but it lit up my world.
Elder Trevan Scott Reese
Oh yes, we went to Germany this week as well at the border. Add that to the list.
