Bruce Hopkins, First Tennessee Bank's president of banking for West Tennessee, couldn't attend last year's Greater Memphis Chamber annual chairman's luncheon.

And at this year's celebratory bash held at The Peabody hotel, attended by hundreds of area business and civic leaders, the banking executive shared from the main stage the reason he couldn't make it in 2010.
It was a deeply personal story about a life-threatening medical crisis he faced. An eye checkup had revealed a dangerous and extremely rare kind of tumor, and though friends encouraged Hopkins to seek treatment out of town at world-class centers, the First Tennessee executive thought he had what he needed here.
The retelling of his story was purposeful. It fit the luncheon's theme this year of believing in the city's miracles – specifically, its medical miracles.
Hopkins noted that his company's slogan is "Powering Your Dreams."
"And 12 months ago, that became much more than a slogan for me," he said. "My dream was hoping for a medical miracle."
He got one. Within two weeks of surgery – as the audience learned thanks to a video that featured interviews with Hopkins' doctors – he was back at the office.
"You're in the best hands (here) you could be in anywhere in the world," Hopkins said.
The chamber's annual event is meant to celebrate its accomplishments over the past year. And 2011 brought plenty to tout, with a string of economic development wins including announcements of new investment in Memphis by companies like Mitsubishi Electric Power Products Inc. and City Brewing Co.
This year's luncheon, though, brought a more personal and emotional touch. It was about health care in the city, and how that's entwined with the health of the city.
Kenneth Robinson, public health policy adviser in Shelby County Mayor Mark Luttrell's office, said that one in every seven jobs in Memphis is in the biosciences.
Steve Bares, president and executive director of the Memphis Bioworks Foundation, said more than 50,000 people work in the bioscience industry in Memphis.
A handful of medical organizations, like University of Tennessee Health Science Center, are celebrating major milestones and anniversaries. UTHSC turned 100 years old in 2011.
That theme was woven throughout the luncheon, down to the food on the tables.
Appropriately, The Peabody's executive culinary team prepared healthy meals for appetizers, the main course and dessert.
Staffers from Le Bonheur Children's Hospital wrote and choreographed a music video shown at the event. The video showed the staff singing and performing its own version of Jay-Z's "Empire State of Mind."
But rather than the song's catchy hook of, "Now you're in New York. These streets will make you feel brand new…" the staff sang "Now you're at Le Bonheur/we'll fix you and make you brand new/our hearts will inspire you."
Amid the commemoration of other medical advances, jobs, breakthroughs and personal stories like Hopkins', the chamber introduced its new chairman of the board – Larry Cox, president and CEO of the Memphis-Shelby County Airport Authority.
Cox assumes the chairmanship Jan. 1.
Cox told the crowd the chamber is gearing up for a busy 2012. He said the chamber's economic development team is working 21 projects at the moment that have the potential to bring 7,000 new jobs to the city.
That's why John Moore, the chamber's president and CEO, said "I always love this annual event. It gets me charged up again for next year to go out with the team."
A video showing the year's highlights was put together with a creative touch. It showed the performance a few weeks ago of local band FreeSol on "The Late Show with David Letterman."
Interspersed throughout the performance were video clips of local highlights from the year, culminating with Letterman's thanks to the band and his apparent interest in coming to Memphis: "Don't be surprised if you see us down there taking care of business."
Chamber staff thought ahead to make sure and have boxes of tissue on each table. Because the event wrapped up with a performance by country band Alabama's lead singer Randy Owen and five children from St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Owen, a longtime St. Jude supporter, led the patients in a performance of "Angels Among Us." Each time the chorus came around, he handed the mike to the children, all of whom were gathered in a semicircle on stage and singing loudly, five pint-sized testaments to miracles that happen every day at St. Jude and across Memphis.

What keeps prospective GOP candidates awake at night? It isn't the unrest in Egypt or the North Korean regime. It isn't the upcoming 2014 elections or the future 2016 primary. It isn't Obamacare, immigration reform, Dodd-Frank, gay marriage, or government spending. It is one person, and her name is Hillary Clinton.
Hillary's shadow looms large not just over her fellow Democrats who want a chance at the nomination for President in 2016. Her influence is so large it is affecting how the GOP candidates map their own roads to the White House.
Of course, Clinton hasn't even announced whether or not she intends to run. Her decision is the most anticipated and important announcement of the 2016 cycle.
Republicans are afraid; and they should be. Hillary Clinton would be the most formidable candidate from either political party since Dwight D. Eisenhower. She is generally respected by members of both parties and adored by Democrats. She proved herself competent and loyal by serving as Secretary of State for four years. And did I mention she's a woman?
Fairly or not, should Clinton run, she will undoubtedly pick up many votes from people who just want to see a woman elected President. Unlike Obama, who likely lost as many votes as he gained due to the color of his skin, Clinton would likely see a net gain. Simply put, there just aren't as many people who think a woman should not be President.
Additionally, Hillary has the chance to excite a whole new generation of voters, much like Barack Obama did in 2008. These are people who are excited for something fresh and the prospect of making history.
Publicly, most GOP pols will say they can beat Clinton, should she decide to run. But most of them are either wild optimists or just lying. The biggest problem for Republicans is not her public stature or her vast experience or her gender. Their biggest problem is the map.
Clinton puts more states in play than any potential Republican candidate. Recent polls suggest she runs close or even beats her GOP opponents in traditionally red states such as Georgia, Texas, Louisiana, Kentucky, and even Alaska. And those are just the states that have been polled on the hypothetical match ups.
In addition to the aforementioned states, assuming states with similar demographics behave similarly, Clinton puts the entire south in play (Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, West Virginia, South Carolina, Arizona, and Missouri). In total, those thirteen states make up 140 electoral votes.
That isn't to mention how strong her lead is in traditionally Democrat states. The Republican candidate is going to have to spend millions of dollars just to keep traditionally GOP states in their column. That takes money away from going on offense in swing states and blue states.
Assuming Clinton were to make those thirteen states into swing states, the map would then look something like the map shown here. The Republican candidate would only have approximately 51 "safe" electoral votes. Talk about a "shellacking".
Right now, the astute political scientist is probably saying, "Yeah, all this is true, but political parties rarely get a third term in the White House. The American people are going to be ready for change". And I agree.
This is where Clinton has been incredibly politically shrewd. By taking the Secretary of State job, she was able to detach herself from Obama in terms of domestic policy. Therefore, the stimulus, Obamacare, Dodd-Frank, and anything else that is perhaps unpopular cannot be pinned on her. Depending on how the public views each of these issues in 2016, Clinton can shape her position in order to better line up with public opinion.
Furthermore, if the economy is seen as picking up steam and greatly improving, Clinton can run on Obama's legacy of economic development and promise to keep it going as opposed to changing course with the GOP.
Given all this, barring some unforeseen world event or scandal that seriously affects her, Clinton will almost assuredly be the next President of the United States, and that scares the shit out of Republicans.

I am finally getting over the person I've been in love with for a year and a half. I don't know what happened, but one day I realized it was slowly fading away. Last time I saw him, I didn't instinctively track his every move. It was weirdly unsettling since I've been so used to doing it without realizing; when I wasn't, it was very noticeable to me.
Maybe it is the fact he smokes most of the time. Maybe it's the fact I know (and have known) that he likes another girl and I'm rooting for them, because it's obvious how much he likes her. Maybe it's because it's that I hardly see him anymore.
Whatever it is, I'm almost glad. Because I feel free now. in a weird way. Now that I'm not constantly wondering what he's doing, or analyzing every move and interaction we've ever had, a weight is gone and I feel lighter in a way. So now I can just focus on seeing if this friendship is worth having, and just being a friend. Which is awesome.
I'm free to be me. And that's an excellent start.

Our forests could be turning into tinderboxes because logging, both commercial and salvage have been prevented or delayed because of the pressure of law suits from environmental lobbyists.

Those skeptics who think enviros and climate change scientists and certain politicians like to blame everything on global warming will enjoy this one: Global warming causes earthquakes.
No, climate change doesn't affect plate tectonics, that would be silly. But it does cause the melting of ice sheets, which scientists think could release stored up energy that triggers quakes.
As the story in National Geographic explains:
A series of large earthquakes shook Scandinavia around 10,000 years ago, along faults that are now quiet, the scientists point out.
The timing of each earthquake roughly coincided with the melting of thick ice sheets from the last ice age in those same places.
Researchers had suspected that the melting had triggered these earthquakes by releasing pressure that had built up in Earth's crust.
As ice sheets are in short supply in Seattle, I'm guessing we're OK on this front.
An idea perhaps that's a big easier to get your head around is the notion that spring in many places is coming sooner as the planet gets toastier. From the Associated Press:
The fingerprints of man-made climate change are evident in seasonal timing changes for thousands of species on Earth, according to dozens of studies and last year's authoritative report by the Nobel Prize-winning international climate scientists. More than 30 scientists told The Associated Press how global warming is affecting plants and animals at springtime across the country, in nearly every state.
I wrote about the subtle but profound effect that could have on salmon in Lake Washington. Earlier warming, scientists found, could goof up predator-prey interactions, leading to food shortages for salmon and other species.
But it sure is nice to see the cherry blossoms come mid March!

text: One sector banned from foreign worker program Employment Minister Jason Kenney took the extraordinary step of banning restaurants from accessing the Temporary Foreign Worker Program this week. "I am announcing an immediate moratorium on the food services sector's access to the temporary foreign worker program," Kenney said in a statement. The ministry will not process any new or pending applications for temporary foreign workers from restaurant operators, and any unfilled positions tied to previous approval will be suspended. "This moratorium will remain in effect until the completion of the ongoing review of the temporary foreign worker program," he said. A C.D. Howe Institute study released yesterday finds the program is ineffective and has contributed to joblessness in B.C. and Alberta. The program grew from about 100,000 people in 2002 to as many as 338,000 now working across the country, according to the C.D. Howe report, which funds changes in the last 10 years made it easier to hire temporary foreign workers. "These policy changes occurred even though there was little empirical evidence of shortages in many occupations," wrote the report's author, economist Dominique Gross. "When controlling for differences across provinces, I find that changes to the TFWP that eased hiring conditions accelerated the rise in unemployment rates in Alberta and British Columbia." One researcher said she doubted many of the Canadian companies accessing the program were seriously trying to find domestic workers. "Instead of recruiting in India, you could recruit in some parts of rural Ontario, or among First Nations in western Canada," said McMaster University's Catherine Connelly, who was recently awarded a four-year grant to study the program. "If you look at unemployment rates among young Canadians or among people with disabilities — I really question some of the recruiting practices." The government announcement comes less than a day after McDonald's Canada voluntarily suspended all current applications to the program as it investigates allegations that Canadians were denied jobs and foreigners brought in to fill open positions instead. Tim Hortons has expanded oversight of the use of temporary foreign workers at its franchises and taken over two locations in Alberta and B.C. after employees claimed the owner of the two franchises took advantage of their status as temporary foreign workers to cheat them out of overtime pay. Senior leaders at both companies have called the program "necessary" in labour scarce parts of the country. RCMP and human rights investigations were ongoing into the accusations against Tim Hortons franchisee in Fernie, Alberta, but no charges have been laid. Leave a comment SHARE

Not surprisingly, these images are unrealistic, and the newest exhibit at the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum, Going for the Gold: Pikes Peak or Bust, tells the real story of what brought the first wave of pioneers to the region in 1858. And, more importantly, what made them stay.
A bad economy initially lured nearly 50,000 travelers toward the territory (only half were to eventually make it and settle), according to museum director Matt Mayberry: "The rush happened in response to an economic crisis just like the one we're going through today."
Known as The Panic of 1857, it happened when banks throughout the Eastern states started to fail due to sums owed to creditors. When they called in their loans, investors farmers and businessmen lost everything. At the same time, rumors filtered in from the West of gold in the hills of what are now called the Tarryall and Wilkerson Pass areas of Colorado.
But those fantastic stories didn't mention the hard work involved in washing gold from sand and gravel, or the difficulty in finding the gold in the first place. As it turns out, supporting the miners often made for better business. This is why Colorado City (now Old Colorado City) was built: to sell supplies to miners traveling up Ute Pass to reach the claims.
"Mining needs all of this civilization in order to make it possible," says Mayberry. "That's the local part of the story."
To capture the era, the Pioneers Museum has collected costumes, tools of the mining trade and other artifacts. But Mayberry points out the exhibit isn't as much about mining as it is about the development of Colorado City.
"Colorado City exists not because gold was there," says Mayberry, "but because it was a place where people could mine the miners."

Residents and ward councillors in Chelmsford opposed the demolition of the Marsham Arms in Waterhouse Lane to make way for a Tesco Express and flats. They say there is no need for another convenience store because there is a Co-op petrol station next door. Tesco already has 5 stores in Chelmsford and that increased customer traffic, delivery lorries, parking for the five flats and a new access road in from Waterhouse Lane and out onto Ash Tree Crescent would cause traffic problems. But in January 2011 Chelmsford planning committee approved the application by five votes to four.
In April 2012, more than 1,000 residents backed a campaign to stop the former Drury Arms pub being turned into a Sainsbury's store. A planning application by site owner Property Portfolio to build a storage extension at the site and create more space for goods, was rejected by Colchester Council planners in February. Please see an article in the Chelmsford Weekly News, 5th April 2012.
In September 2011 residents learnt that Tesco plans to open a Tesco Express in the Hussey & Greaves premises on Moulsham Street. Moulsham Street is renowned as being the place for independent retailers. There are several local convenience stores on the street and side roads of old Moulsham that will be affected. As the site already has A1 category license, apart from advertising or illuminated signage they need no planning permission from the council. This will be the 7th Tesco within walking distance of the town centre.

Chapter X
Written By: Baby Jay NY
This story is fiction. Nothing in this story is real. I made it all up. Will maybe some of it is true. I hope you enjoy reading it. Because I really enjoyed writing it.
It is about 3 am. The pressure in my belly wakes me up. The cramp I got made me poop in my diaper. Instead of calling out to mommy. I went back to sleep. I am very uncomfortable when I wake up in the morning. Mommy is asleep. My hinny and in between my legs are on fire. Mommy hears me rustling and get up to see what the problem is. She is wearing a very pretty nighty. The nighty just barley covers her breast. She is leaning over me. I am waiting for one of those things to fall out. Isn't completely through you yet, pumpkin.
Mommy pulls the covers off me and starts to remove my cloths. She removes my plastic pants and my smelly diaper. She wipes the poop off my hinny with the clean part of the diaper. She spreads my legs to clean me with the baby wipes and notices that I have a diaper rash in between my legs and hinny. That must be painful pumpkin. I will need to give you a bath in order to clean you properly. Mommy goes into the bathroom to run the tub. She comes back and starts to clean me a little better with some more baby wipes. I'm sorry pumpkin, I know it hurts. Mommy will make your boo boo all better. I need to clean you up a little more. I step into the tub. The water is warm and it feels real good. Mommy lets me sit awhile before starting to wash me up. OK honey stand up for mommy. She soaps up the wash cloth. Spreading my legs, she very carefully starts to wash the diaper rash. It doesn't hurt that bad now that I was sitting in the water for awhile. She cleaned my hinny good and washed in between my legs. It is starting to feel a lot better. I'm holding onto her shoulder and notice her breast in her nighty. They look smooth and very inviting. I sit back down in the water and she couches me staring in her nighty. Is someone hungry like when he was a real baby she said? No time for that now. I need to get my baby feeling better. Maybe later as a special treat for my sick little baby boy.
Let's dry you off now. She takes a nice soft towel and wraps it around my body. I step out of the tub onto the rug. She is shaking me and drying me off at the same time. I am giggling because I really enjoy her attention. OK all done. We head for the bedroom. She lays me on the bed with the changing pad under me. Finding my binky in the bed she puts it in my mouth while turning me over on my belly she rubs diaper rash cream all over my hinny and in between the back of my inner thighs. She helped me roll over on my back. She spreads my legs apart. Mommy rubs the cream all between my legs and around my pee pee. Jean knocks on the door and mom tells her to come in. She sees me spread eagle on my back and said what's wrong with baby brother? He has a bad case of diaper rash. Where she said? Mom points to where it is. Jean said does that hurt? I think he is feeling better. His smiling. I told you I was going to make you feel better. Jean we have to remember we had to clean this area good when we change him. We my sister said? Yes, you're going to care for your baby brother today. I told him because of how he treated you last night. He has to wear diapers all week end. Cool. I get to play mommy again. Yes but I think this time he will be a good baby today. Can I help mom? Sure honey. Why don't you go and start breakfast for us. We should be done in about 30 minutes. OK mom. Jean came over to the side of the bed and kissed me on the forehead. Feel better baby brother. Jean left to start breakfast. Mommy sprinkled baby powder over the area but didn't rub it in. You are going to just wear the diaper without the plastic pants so air can get at the rash. If that does work. You may have to wear nothing for a while until it clears up.
Mommy puts a shirt on me and we go into the kitchen were Jean is making our breakfast. Mommy sits me on my chair and brings over some eggs. Jean asked mom. What should I put into his bottle? I threw out the OJ. He can't have milk so I guess we should give him some water. Jean fills the bottle with cold water. Mommy starts to feed me. Jean steps over and said can I feed my baby please. He is my baby brother today, right mom? OK honey, be my guest. For a young girl. Jean really knows a lot about taking care of a baby. Jean is feeding me like mom does. Open wide for the airplane. Mom is eating her eggs and laughing. See this is what life is all about. A happy mommy. A happy little girl and a happy baby boy. Your doing great little mommy. Pumpkin, can you say mama for your sister? Mom looks at me and lips go ahead. Mama I said. Now that's cool. Jean holds up the bottle and I start to suck on the nipple. He really knows how to suck a nipple mom. He was a pretty good suckler when he was 1 or two. His enjoying this baba. That's exactly what he use to call his bottle. Can you say BABA? With the nipple still in my mouth. I say BABA. Oh that is so cute. I'm really glad that he is letting me do all these things to him. Well today he has no choice. So enjoy it while it last and take advantage of the good deed your doing for him. OK all done. Jean washes my face and my hands. She sits me on the floor. OK baby boy crawl to the living room. I start to crawl to the living room. I hear mommy and Jean say. Look how cute he looks with just a diaper on.
Mom and Jean clean up the kitchen. They come into the living room. I am sitting on the bare cold floor. Waiting for someone to turn cartoons on. Mommy puts a blanket and a pillow on the floor for me to lie on. She has an extra bottle of water for me. This will help clear you up from that bad OJ. I am lying on the blanket. Mommy puts the bottle on top of the pillow so I don't have to hold it. Jean turns TV on and puts the cartoon channel on. See baby brother you don't have to be young to watch cartoons. I saw you last night laughing at Bugs Jean can you go to the store for me please? I need some milk and some OJ. OK mom I will go and get dressed. Jean went upstairs. Mommy was sitting on the couch reading a news paper. The floor was cold even with the blanket under me. Mommy saw me all crunched up. Would you like to sit with mommy and drink your baba? Mommy had a nice fluffy bathrobe on over her nighty. I crawled over to her and she picked me up and laid me in her lap. She took the baba and I got comfortable in her lap. She put one arm around me like Jean did last night. The other hand was holding the baba. You were always a cute little baby. And you still are. She rubbed her nose with mine. Thanks for making me feel better again pumpkin. I smiled at her under the baba.
Jean came down all dressed. Mom told her to go into her pocket book and take out some money. The list is on the kitchen table. Be careful crossing the street when you go to the super market. Hopefully not to many people will be there.
Jean left. Mommy was still holding the baba for me. I was busy sucking the water down. How would my pumpkin like that special treat I mentioned this morning? I wasn't sure what she had in mine. But if it made her happy I would do what ever she wanted. She placed the bottle on the table and sat me up. She removed the top part of her robe and pulled up her nighty. Here we go pumpkin. Just like when you were a baby. Laying me back in her lap. I was even with her nipples. Here you go baby boy. She held the back of my head and pushed it towards her left nipple. I opened my mouth and she placed it in my mouth. I was in heaven. She started to sign me a lullaby. It was all too familiar. She started to rock me and sign. She had a real soothing voice with a big smile.
"Baby Jerry is feeding right now. He wants to cuddle and I'm the reason why". Shhh go to sleep my little one. Mommy is here to always take care of you. My eyes are closing. All I remember seeing before going to sleep is a big happy smile on my mommy face.
Remarks or comments are welcome.

Why Wastara ended her 2-month marriage
Categories: Juicy Gossip , 0 comments
Speaking with Globalpublishers, the actress said she didn't have happiness in her marriage.
I never had happiness with Sadifa as my husband, he treated me badly, before marrying me, he promised to open big shops for me and other many things but he never fulfilled his promises.On the other side Sadifa said that, he loved Wastara they way she was but he didn't like Wastara's behavior of talking about their marriage on media and instagram. He said he is still Wastara's husband.
I know many people will be against me but I want happiness in my life. I very much regrets coming into this marriage but I would like to advise my fellow women to think twice before jumping into marriage, there are lots of things there.

The hot political story of the moment is Mitt Romney's old venture capital company, Bain Capital - which happens to share the same name as the most frightening and current Batman villain from the new movie "The Dark Knight Rises."
The hot political story of the moment is Mitt Romney�s old venture capital company, Bain Capital � which happens to share the same name as the most frightening and current Batman villain from the new movie �The Dark Knight Rises.�
Not since Ayds Diet Candy suffered through their somewhat ill-timed late-�80s �Lose weight with Ayds� sales campaign has a brand faced this type of challenge. See, Romney�s whole campaign is based on the idea that he has run a business so he knows how to create jobs. There�s just one problem.
�When Mitt Romney was the CEO of Bain Capital in the �90s, Bain invested in a series of companies including call centers and manufacturers that expanded overseas, sometimes at the expense of American workers,� CBS News reported.
In his defense, Romney never said he knew where he was going to create those jobs. It still doesn�t look good for Romney. Luckily, he�s got a bit of an excuse.
�Romney says he took a leave of absence from Bain Capital in February of 1999 to run the Salt Lake City Olympics, which means he never had control of the companies doing the outsourcing,� CBS News said.
Ah, now I see what happened. He never had anything to do with the outsourcing because at the time Romney was too busy bringing foreigners to America to take our gold. There actually is one small problem with Romney�s explanation. Between 1999 and 2002, Bain Capital�s SEC filings stated that Romney was the CEO, president and managing director of the firm, and the company paid him at least $100,000 per year.
�The documents show there is a difference between ownership, which is I owned shares in Bain, but I did not manage Bain � When you leave an enterprise and you have other people that are managing the enterprise who take full responsibility for all the investment decisions, who decide who is going to get hired and fired, who decide compensation decisions they�re the manager, they�re the people running the business,� Romney said.
Romney was just the guy with the smokescreen-ish, yet still legal title of CEO and managing director who was paid at least $100,000 a year to do what was � according to him � nothing. And that�s the kind of common sense business experience he intends to bring to the White House.
�He took a leave of absence and in fact he ended up not going back at all, and ended up retiring retroactively to February of 1999 as a result,� said Ed Gillespie, Romney�s senior adviser.
Retired retroactively?! See, in 2012 Romney realized the company he was CEO of in 1999 did things that would hurt his presidential campaign in the present so he retroactively wasn�t there. I�m not saying that if you have a time machine you necessarily have to kill Hitler, but this retroactive retirement is the worst use of a time machine I have ever seen.

Just outstanding, can´t wait to play this mod...
Brick It Brick It is a modification with the dedicated goal to create a Lego universe. Our universe should pick up as many different Lego elements as possible and unite them to a single unit. We want to combine a lot of various happy colors, animations, funny effects and lots more.
Just outstanding, can´t wait to play this mod...
dude how can i see way more larger pics?? i like to put em as wallpaper :P
I'd seriously think that was real lego, terrific modeling and texturing!
One of the most promising MOD I've seen yet. Having evolved with the Lego System, I can not adore the idea of a game as Lego. Moreover, it is very well modeled and very much in the playful spirit of Lego. Very good! And I hate that this MOD is available: D
Sorry, I made a translation error: And I hate that this MOD is available
I wanted to say: I look forward to this mod is available!

11, 14, 16, and 17 are all on my list too! I scratched 21 off last year. I should get a life list though. Sounds smart!ReplyDelete
30 is great, really! Personally, I've enjoyed the last two years in my thirties so much. As much as it sounds crazy, something really clicks after thirty and life comes into perspective a little more. At least it did for me! Whatever you decide to do, just enjoy it! ;)ReplyDelete
Fun list!! #14 is fun - I've done that before! And yes, #26, now is the time to do that - calories don't count when you're pregnant!! ;-)ReplyDelete
#17 would be an absolute dream! I need to start one of these lists. I'll be 29 this year, and I have a few things I want to do (or start doing) before 30.ReplyDelete
I love your list! Thirty was really hard for me but my thirties were great. You're allowed to go for the ice cream under the circumstances!ReplyDelete
Australia AND New Zealand and because you'll still be so close by, why not add Fiji to it too ;)ReplyDelete

Some of my favorites from this mini birthday shoot. Poor baby wasn't feeling his best, but he toughed it out and we still got some great pictures!
Layla Turns 1!
Leah's Family session
Valerie & Ruben Maternity
Brazil Maternity
This shoot was definitely an adventure. We fought wind and rain and freezing water, but I think the hardest part about this was choosing between black and white and color! This shoot was so much fun and I could not be happier with the results. Brazil was amazing and I can't wait to meet her little girl!

One of the albums that many guitarists check out when first exploring the jazz genre is Kenny Burrell's Midnight Blue record. As well, since it was covered by Stevie Ray Vaughan, a lot of players are drawn to the classic tune "Chitlins Con Carne."
When learning how to play in the style of Kenny Burrell, especially like a tune such as Chitlins, one of the key elements to explore is mixing chords and single-lines during each phrase of an improvised chorus, which you can hear during the melody section of Chitlins especially.
To help you get that cool-sounding Kenny Burrell chord/single-note sound in your jazz guitar soloing ideas, this lesson will explore a sample solo written out of an A minor blues chord progression that is inspired by Kenny's playing on Midnight Blue and "Chitlins Con Carne."
The single notes in the solo are all based on the A minor blues scale, and the chords used are typical, three-note shapes that many jazz guitarists use in this type of soloing/comping situation, including Kenny.
So, grab your axe and let's dig into some smooth sounding cool jazz in the style of Kenny Burrell.
Kenny Burrell Chitlins Con Carne
Kenny Burrell Minor Blues
Kenny Burrell Minor Blues Backing Track
Here is a short backing track that you can use to practice the solo in this lesson, as well as work on improvising over the minor blues chord progression in the woodshed.
Practicing This Solo
Learning a solo from memory is a great way to digest the material in that improvisation, but there are also other exercises that you can use to continue your study of this material in the woodshed.
Here are 3 ways that you can continue your study of this Kenny Burrell Minor Blues Solo as you dig deeper into the concepts in this solo in the practice room.
1. Play the solo with a backing track over the first chorus, during the second chorus you improvise the single lines but keep the chords as is. Continue this alteration throughout the backing track.
2. Write out your own Kenny Burrell inspired solo over an A minor blues progression, using the blues scale for the single notes, and small, three-note chords for the comping sections of the solo.
3. Practice singing an improvised single-line where you see the single-notes in the solo above, then comp the chords on the guitar where they land. This is a great way to connect your ears and voice to your fretboard while working on a minor blues solo at the same time.

About Us
The Parsnipship makes unique and original vegetarian & vegan food for sale at farmers markets, food fairs, festivals and events. We launched our online shop early in 2016, and also sell our products through Yumbles – an online market place for independent and artisan food producers.
The last two years has seen us expanding the wholesale side of our business and we now send our food to outlets across England and Wales – hopefully 2017 will see us reach our old stomping grounds in Scotland…
Origins of The Parsnipship
We were inspired to start our business after years of being disappointed at the meagre offerings available for vegetarians and vegans when eating out, and the head-scratching bemusement amongst friends and family when called upon to cook for "those with special dietary requirements" (aka annoying visitors)…
Having worked in the catering industry for over 20 years, Ben has developed a unique style of cooking and is passionate about creating wonderful vegetarian food. We hope that our creations come to your rescue whether you are a committed plant eater yourself, you want some quick and easy meals to feed the tricky eaters in your midst, or you just love good food!
In Ben's words:
"In 2007, I set up the first stall at The Riverside Market in Cardiff, selling five different varieties of vegetarian pies. Pâtés, crumbles and other classically inspired inventions followed and because of the success we decided to spread the word by teaching the recipes and running a part of the business as a kind of 'collective'. Nightmare! It was so hard to keep an eye on quality that we decided to dissolve that side of things and concentrate on what we do best…
…Here at The Parsnipship, we spend the week hand-crafting the finest vegetarian and vegan products in our kitchens in Ogmore Vale. We strive to be original, provocative & pack our creations with big, punchy flavours."
We'd like to thank all our customers who have braved the elements at markets and events for years…without you, The Parsnipship would have long ago floundered to the bottom of the Bristol Channel!

Answers in Genesis sued state officials last month over a lost $18 million tax incentive from the state tourism department. The state had given preapproval for the incentive but in December rejected the Christian group's application, saying the mission of the park had changed from tourist attraction to ministry.Still not sure how this one is going to play out. It seems that Ham's ability to characterize it as a theme park and not as a ministry hinges on how connected the project is to Answers in Genesis, which is, obviously, a ministry. The ties between the two were hidden at first but now are much more visible. It doesn't help that the legal team filing the suit are those retained by AiG.
A lawyer for Answers in Genesis says the group should be treated the same as a non-religious applicant.
The Christian group also built the Creation Museum and is currently constructing a 500-foot-long wooden ark in Kentucky to anchor the biblical park.
This is a blog detailing the creation/evolution/ID controversy and assorted palaeontological news. I will post news here with running commentary.

Ark Encounter Asks Judge for Injunction
In a very short AP article, it is being reported that the Ark Encounter is asking the judge involved in the suit that it filed in February to grant an injunction so it can get the tax breaks it requested from the state that were denied recently. Here is the crux of the story:

Dearest Ladies,
Today I'm back with a post about my current favourite products. Some of them might be relatively new in my collection, while others are products that I rediscovered.
Take a look at the products I'm going to mention today…
The first product I'm going to mention is one that I had also mentioned in my most recent "Favourite products at the time" post.
Pupa Milano Professionals BB Cream + Anti-Eta'
This product has become my go to product. I use this everyday especially because I usually want something lighter than foundation for everyday but would still like a little bit of coverage. I'm also happy about the fact that it has SPF30. Oh, and it smells fantastic!
Clinians HYDRA BASIC Moisturizing Mattifying Face Cream with Apple Water and Zinc
I bought this product on a whim… I urgently needed something moisturizing for my under eyes but as I was looking I saw this face cream and thought it might be a good idea to try it out as well. The product comes in a small glass jar and the cream itself is a pale green. It feels very refreshing on the skin and has a faint fresh smell which I can't quite put my finger on. I don't always use this in the morning but when I do, it gets absorbed by the skin rather quickly.
ELIE SAAB le parfum
This was a gift… one of those gifts that I hinted for 😛 I had tried a tester of this perfume and totally fell in love with it and then came the next Christmas or Birthday… and as I had hoped, I got it as a present. I'm not very good at describing perfumes but I can say that it has a sophisticated scent.
I strongly suggest that you go to your closest perfumery and try this out especially if you want to give a loved one a gift they'll enjoy.
Essence lipliner shade: 11 in the nude
I apologize but I couldn't photograph this one well because the text is starting to wear off off the pencil. This is a very basic nude lipliner which I am currently really enjoying using on its own. Stays on for quite a while and looks just right with my skintone. I will definitely try to take a picture the next time I wear it. Oh, and since it was from essence I'm sure it was a steal!
Essence liquid ink eyeliner
I thought I'd give this a try after having seen many bloggers saying good things about it. It has a simple brush applicator that does the job well and is easy to use if you want detail and precision. While I have never tried it myself, there is also the waterproof version of this which comes in blue/black packaging.
KIKO Milano Soft Focus Concealer in shade: 02
I bought this when I was abroad as I had ran out or forgotten to take concealer. I remember the salesman putting it on me after a day full of shopping. I was tired and this definitely gave my undereyes a little wake me up. It's a pretty regular concealer, nothing out of this world but it does the job. Reminds me of the Catrice Re-Touch Light Reflecting Concealer since the packaging is identical except that for this one you press the bottom of the pen instead of twisting it.
e.l.f. Contouring Blush and Bronzing Powder
I had this for ages and at the moment I am going through a phase where I'm trying not to buy any new makeup unless I really have to. I have therefore ran out of most of my blushes and decided to give this a try once again. I actually love the blusher. I am not usually keen on shimmer but it doesn't bother me in this one and I have been using it daily. In a way it highlights the face as well.
I haven't been using the bronzing powder it comes with because it is also shimmery which is something I'm not sure I can live with.
P.S. This is the first one e.l.f. had. If I remember correctly, after this one they had a range of similar duos in different shades and some of them were cream products.
MAC lipstick in JIST
This is by far my most favourite lipstick in my collection. It is the only MAC one but is always the one that saves the day. When I am in doubt about what colour to go for, I go for this. It's perfect with a dark smokey eye look. This is a frost lipstick and I think goes very well with my complexion especially now that my hair is more coppery toned.
That's all I have to say for today! I hope you found this post helpful especially if you are looking for something in particular which I happened to mention.
P.S. Here is my updated self in cartoon thanks to Bitstrips. Yes, I wear glasses now!
Do you use any of these products? Which ones do you like and which ones not so much?
I'd love to hear about it in the comment section.

Outpost Harry was a remote Korean War station located on a tiny hilltop in what was commonly referred to as the "Iron Triangle" on the Korean Peninsula. This was an area approximately 60 miles (100 km) north of Seoul and was the most direct route to the South Korean capital.
More than 88,000 rounds of Chinese artillery fell on Outpost Harry. Since the outpost was defended each night by only a single company of American or Greek soldiers, the Chinese had anticipated an easy capture. Over a period of eight days, waves of Chinese forces moved into the outpost's trench lines and totalling over 13,000 soldiers. Five UNC companies, four US and one Greek, took turns in defending the outpost.[citation needed]
Most of the fighting occurred at night, under heavy mortar fire, while the daylight hours were usually spent by the UNC forces evacuating the dead and wounded, replacing the defending company, sending up resupplies and repairing the fortified positions. The daylight hours were punctuated with artillery, mortar and sniper fire, making repairs and reinforcement a more dangerous task. During the 4 to 5 days prior to the initial attack on the outpost, Chinese artillery and mortar fire increased from an average of 275 to 670 per day during daylight hours.
The soldiers of the Greek Expeditionary Force, Sparta Battalion adapted its name and called it Outpost "Haros", the modern Greek equivalent to Charon, Greek mythology's ferryman to the underworld of Hades.

The Iron Triangle - Korean War
Memories of the Korean War
Outpost Harry's elevation was around 1,280 feet and positioned some 320 yards south of a larger landmass occupied by the Chinese People's Volunteer Army (PVA) called "Star Hill" and some 425 yards northeast of United Nations Command positions. A service road that wound from the Main Line of Resistance (MLR) along an intermittent stream led to the rear of the outpost where a medical aid station and a supply point were located. Harry was an outpost east of the Chorwon Valley with sister outposts to the west called Tom and Dick. Outpost Dick was about 100 yards in front of the Main Line of Resistance, and Tom was about 250-300 yards in front and below the MLR. The latter was the floor of the valley. Harry, which was over 400 yards from the MLR, was also higher than the MLR, making supply much more difficult. The route to the outpost was under constant enemy observation and fire, and its height made it harder to pack supplies up the hill. Unlike Tom and Dick, which could get supporting fire from the MLR, Harry got less close supporting fire from the MLR because company 60mm mortars and the heavy machine guns did not have enough range. Harry relied more on artillery and heavy mortar companies.
The outpost was a strategic "military Hot Spot" and dearly desired by the Chinese. Its defense and preservation was viewed as critical because it blocked Chinese observation down the Kumwha Valley and shielded that portion of the MLR from enemy direct fire. If the UN forces lost the outpost, the U.S. Eighth Army would have had to withdraw approximately 6 miles (10 km) to the next defensible line. Furthermore, a Chinese victory at Outpost Harry may have whet the appetite for more war and disheartened the American public to a point where it might have accepted an armistice term less favorable to the Americans than was eventually the case.[citation needed]
The position contained a communication trench line which ran from the supply point forward some 400 yards to the top. At that point, the trench line joined another trench that made a complete loop (circle) around the outpost with an additional finger that ran along the east ridge about 100 yards. The trench line was deep enough to walk around the perimeter unseen by the enemy. It was fortified with reinforced fighting bunkers, a command post and a forward observation bunker. It could accommodate approximately 150 infantrymen.
During the period of June 1-June 8, 1953, aerial reconnaissance indicated that the Chinese forces were building for a major offensive. The units identified were the 22nd & 221st Regiments of the Chinese Communist 74th Division.
June 10–11
Early on June 10, K Company of the 15th Infantry Regiment, commanded by CPT Martin A. Markley, had been briefed on an imminent attack, and he in turn briefed his men. Ammo and communications were checked, as were final protective fires.
During the night of the first attack, the Chinese outnumbered Harry's defenders by 30 to 1. "All total, there was a reinforced PVA regiment of approximately 3,600 enemy trying to kill us," said Captain Martin Markley. Despite an intense barrage of defensive firepower and the detonation of napalm, the invading forces stormed the slopes of the outpost and soon penetrated the trenches. When K company got under cover in bunkers, friendly Variable Time (VT) artillery was called in to stop the attack. The artillery rounds exploded in the air rather than on impact, and this, plus hand-to-hand combat, finally drove the Chinese from Harry that night. By morning, all but a dozen Americans had been killed or severely wounded. K Company was so depleted that they were immediately reinforced by a reserve platoon and then replaced by another company of the 3rd Battalion. In addition to a composite reserve committed by the 3rd battalion commander (COL Russell F. Akers Jr.), Companies "E" and "C" 15th Infantry were committed to reinforce. One platoon of tanks from Heavy Tank Company, 15th Infantry, and one platoon of infantry were committed to the valley east of Outpost Harry as a diversionary force. This tank-infantry team proved to be of great value in channeling the enemy attack.
M/Sgt (then Sgt.) Ola L. Mize was awarded the Medal of Honor for his reported actions on Outpost Harry that night.
Company C exceeded the 2nd Chemical Mortar Battalion's record for the number of rounds fired in a single engagement: 6,082 rounds.[7][8]
June 11–12
Baker Company of the 15th and Baker Company of the 5th RCT defended Harry. The Chinese began with another massive artillery and mortar barrage, continuing through most of the night. PVA infantry crept in close through the artillery fire and had gained the trenches on the rear of the outpost where bitter hand-to-hand fighting ensued.[9] Company B, 5th Regimental Combat Team, was used to reinforce the defenders, while the PVA attempted to reinforce the initial successful assault through the night. By daybreak, at approximately 05:45, the Chinese again called off their assault and withdrew.
On 25 September 2010, PFC Charles 'Charlie' Johnson was posthumously awarded the Silver Star, 57 years after his death, by Brigadier-General Jeffrey Phillips, 3rd Infantry Division Rear-Detachment Commander, from Fort Stewart, Ga. It is awarded for gallantry in action against an enemy of the United States. The 20-year-old soldier is attributed for single-handedly trying to hold off enemy forces and protect nine or more wounded soldiers during battle at Outpost Harry on June 12, 1953.
June 12–13
Able Company of the 5th RCT and Love Company of the 15th Infantry Regiment defended Harry. They were supported by a detachment from the 10th Combat Engineer Battalion that got trapped on the outpost while on a mine laying detail.[10] On the night of June 12 at 22:00, PVA artillery and mortar fire preceded an attack on the outpost which was broken up by UNC defensive fires. The Chinese were in the trench for a short time but were forced to withdraw. Fighting ceased at 22:47. However at 02:08 the Chinese attacked from the north, northeast, and northwest of the outpost.[11] Bitter hand-to-hand fighting ensued as the CPV gained the trench on the northern slope of the outpost. Company "L", 15th Infantry, reinforced, and by 04:50 hours the Chinese were driven from the trenches and forced to withdraw. A platoon of tanks from the 64th Tank Battalion plus one platoon of infantry were dispatched to the valley east of outpost Harry and operated successfully as a diversionary force. All action ceased with the exception of UNC counter battery and counter mortar fire.
June 13–14
Charlie Company of the 5th RCT took responsibility for Harry on June 13. That night at approximately 02:55, PVA artillery and mortar fire preceded a screening action against the outpost from the east and west for the purpose of protecting recovery of their dead. This screening force was broken up by UNC defensive fires. Action became sporadic, with light PVA artillery and mortar fire falling on the outpost and MLR. By 04:40 the Chinese withdrew and all action ceased.
June 14–15
Company "G", 15th infantry had their turn at defending Outpost Harry. At about 01:25 the Chinese moving through friendly artillery and defensive fires gained the trenches on the rear of the outpost, and intense hand-to-hand fighting followed. At 02:22, UNC forces held the outpost with the PVA reinforcing in the bitter hand to hand action. Company "E", 15th Infantry was committed to reinforce. One platoon from Heavy Tank Company and one platoon of Infantry were again dispatched as diversionary force. At 03:45 the PVA withdrew and action ceased.
June 15–16
Company "A", 15th Infantry was committed to the defense of the outpost, and it turned out to be a quiet night on the outpost. The following morning the regimental commander placed the Greek Expeditionary Forces "Spartan" Battalion in the area of the outpost Harry sector in order that his U.S. battalions, all of which had suffered heavy casualties, could refit and reorganize.
June 16–18
During the night of June 16 there was no significant action, permitting much-needed engineer work on the outpost to be accomplished by Company "P", Sparta Battalion, of the Greek Expeditionary Force, during the day with assistance from Company "B", 10th Combat Engineer Battalion. The engineers did not remain on the outpost overnight.
On the morning of June 18, the Chinese returned at around midnight, moving through their own and UNC artillery and mortar fire to attack Outpost Harry from the northeast and northwest. The PVA were repelled and forced to withdraw, but they stayed in the area.[12] At 02:40 the CPV attacked from the north under intense artillery and mortar fire. The PVA got in to the trenches of the outpost on the northern slope at 03:13. Bitter hand-to-hand fighting ensued with the PVA making numerous attempts to reinforce through the protective artillery ring. Company "N", Sparta Battalion was committed to reinforce. One platoon of tanks from Heavy Tank Company, 15th Infantry Regiment, and one platoon of Spartan Infantry were dispatched to the valley east of Outpost Harry as a diversionary force. By 04:02 the PVA were forced out of the trenches on the outpost, and all action ceased with the PVA withdrawing, having fired 22,000 rounds in support of this attack.
The Chinese forces employed against Outpost Harry were tabulated by U.S. Intelligence Sections:
June 10 and June 11: one reinforced regiment (approximately 3,600 troops)
June 11 and June 12: one regiment (approximately 2,850 troops)
June 12 and June 13: one reinforced regiment
June 13 and June 14: an estimated 100 troops
June 14 and June 15: an estimated 120 troops
June 17 and June 18: one reorganized and reinforced regiment (approximately 3,000 troops)
During this period the entire 74th Division was utilized against this position and at the end of the engagement was considered combat ineffective. Rounds fired in support of their attack amounted to 88,810 rounds over 81mm in size: UNC mortar and artillery units in conjunction with friendly tank fires expended 368,185 rounds over 81mm in size.
Casualty figures were
15th Infantry Regiment - 68 KIA, 343 WIA, 35 MIA; KATUSA - 8 KIA, 51 WIA, 7 MIA;
Greek Expeditionary Force, Sparta Battalion - 15 KIA, 36 WIA, 1 MIA.
Attached and supporting units 5th RCT - 13 KIA, 67 WIA, 1 MIA;
10th Engineer Battalion - 5 KIA, 23 WIA; 39th FA - 5 KIA, 13 WIA.
According to Chinase source,74th division and other two divisions of 24 corps suffered total 2038 casualties from May 27 to June 23.
