Lisa Suárez-Brentzel, owner of LACQUER Modern Nail Salon and Gallery, thought the nail salon community could use a little more color.
"There were no tattooed, Hispanic girls doing nails when I started, but I love the thrill of opening a business," she said.
Suárez-Brentzel opened LACQUER with a goal of offering fashion-forward nail art and other cosmetic services with a girly loft vibe. She said her dreams of being in the cosmetology business are nothing new, though.
After high school, Suárez-Brentzel began massage school in hopes of combining medicine with her interest in cosmetology.
"My family is very traditional and wanted me to go to a four-year college for nursing, but I knew I wanted to do something more alternative," Suárez-Brentzel said.
She said massage school turned out to not capture her attention, so she transitioned into cosmetology school and, to her surprise, found her true passion in nails work.
She began to work at a salon in Polaris doing traditional nail services like acrylics in red and nude colors and French manicures, but became increasingly infatuated with edgier nail trends from London.
"When I was getting into the business about seven years ago, nail art was not progressive in Columbus. It was seen as 'tacky,'" Suárez-Brentzel said. "But then I started getting heavy into Tumblr and found these trendy, edgy girls who were making nail art cool."
When Suárez-Brentzel was 22 years old, she left the salon in Polaris and began working for herself, she started offering free nail art manicures to her clients to test the market. This was a service that was not offered much in the Columbus area. The community response was so positive that she had to hire two more girls to help manage the demand.
"That's how you stand out in this business: offering something that other people don't," Suárez-Brentzel said.
As her clientele for modern nail art grew, so did her staff and salon space.
Suárez-Brentzel opened up LACQUER on 448 W. 3rd Ave. in Grandview, a mere two weeks after signing the lease.
Upon entry, customers are greeted with a high, white ceiling, exposed brick walls, furniture slung with fur throws and the sweet aroma of burning candles. A bouquet of sunflowers rests in glass vases next to assorted candy jars. Fashion magazines are spread out on coffee tables and artwork and photographs hang on the walls.
A pink neon sign hangs above a black leather couch in the lobby area that says, "Support your local girl gang."
"I wanted it to look and feel like your cool best friend's apartment," Suárez-Brentzel said.
Katie Johnson was awaiting her first appointment at LACQUER after her sister referred the salon.
"The atmosphere makes me want to come back. I'm officially converted," Johnson said.
LACQUER offers natural nail manicures, acrylic manicures, pedicures, spray tanning, permanent makeup and tattoo removal, facials, eyelash and eyebrow tinting, eyelash extensions and henna tattoos. All services are by appointment only. On Sundays, there are yoga classes. All polishes are vegan-friendly.
"My goal always has been to offer the modern girl something different," Suárez-Brentzel said.
LACQUER is best known for their artistic and wearable gel nail art manicures that take around 30 minutes.
Libby Vynalek said she has been into LACQUER about 10 times and hasn't visited another salon since her first appointment.
"It's a total girl's business, I love it," Vynalek said.
The typical clientele of LACQUER is 25- to 40-year-old women who are fast-paced and fashion-forward, Suárez-Brentzel said. There is a small following of men and a strong following of female college students.
"During college or grad school, girls have no money for new highlights or a brand new outfit or a new Kate Spade, but they'll spend $35 on a manicure and feel like they have their life together," Suárez-Brentzel said.
For girls on a budget, LACQUER offers negative space manicures, a nail service where polish isn't painted on the bed of the nail so that it looks more natural with growth. LACQUER also uses their large social media following to offer "pop-up deals" that work as coupons.
As a self-taught businesswomen, Suárez-Brentzel attempts to support her fellow female entrepreneurs.
"I just feel like there aren't enough girls who support each other, so that's where the 'Support your local girl gang' came from," Suárez-Brentzel said. "We always say 'girls against boys,' but I don't think that's true. I think that girls in business can be very segregated and catty. There are enough clients for everybody, so I made it a prominent thing that we use women vendors."
Suárez-Brentzel said she is also very conscious of how she mixes business with family.
"I'm a single mom, so it's important that my daughter sees me here working so she understands why I can't be with her all the time," Suárez-Brentzel said. "She is 4 years old and already waltzes in here like, 'I need a facial,' and I'm like, 'You're a baby.'"

Because my little buddy's birthday is September 1st, he won't start kindergarten for three more years. I think he would love and benefit from going to preschool, but can't see sending him for that long! To remedy this, I've decided to start my own preschool for the younger crowd. I'm thinking it will just be one day a week and would like to price it so that it covers my materials & effort but is affordable and reflects the fact that I'm just starting out. Even if moms just wanted a few hours a week to get some errands done, their little one could be learning and having fun while mom was busy!
I would love it if you would peruse the polls I have going and let me know what you think would work the best for my new venture!
If you or someone you know is interested, just leave a message in the comments and I will contact you.

2017 Home Rework Prices
There's quite a bit to think about when deciding whether or not to renovate your first residence; from how a lot you can afford to spend, to how a lot you must spend – and where. Small Kitchen Remodels: Small tasks usually price $5,000 to $15,000 and include projects equivalent to upgrading to environmentally friendly lighting, faucets, appliances and windows. I am a Realtor and would like to assist my buyers, after we see properties which are in want of kitchen or rest room upgrades down the highway. The Price Vs. Value report that the NAR commissions from Remodeling journal is way more accurate than this report. The typical value of kitchen remodels is available in at $20,474, with homeowners spending anywhere from $four,500 for small kitchen remodels to $forty nine,000 or extra for top-finish tasks.
Ideally, you want a renovation that brings out the very best qualities of your kitchen and in addition complements your property. The typical cost of a kitchen remodel in Aurora is roughly $10,500 to $27,600. Householders can save on their kitchen renovation prices by making cuts in certain locations. On the lookout for Don Hinkle development contractor in Ft. Pierce, Fl. He did a reasonably nice job remodeling my 2-2 in Ft. Pierce, Fl, and I wanted to jot down pros and cons. Altering the format of the kitchen may additionally require you to maneuver shops and fixtures. So based on the present median national house worth of $437,500 (source: ABS), your renovation price range shouldn't be much more than $20,000. Other fashionable projects embrace adding storage, putting in a counter extension and knocking out a wall to combine the kitchen and dining space.
Like kitchen renovations, lavatory remodeling projects come with a variety of prices depending on the caliber of the cabinets, counters and fixtures you select. A $30,000+ renovation may embody putting in custom cabinets, hardwood floors, granite counters, and high-end home equipment. If a plumber is quoting for a big undertaking similar to your toilet renovation venture, ask for an itemised quote which particulars all the weather they're charging for. Having gone by way of a significant kitchen rework 5 years ago in my very small house, your estimates seem very low. The average cost of a kitchen rework in Studio City is roughly $18,900 to $37,900.
The average price of a kitchen remodel in Minneapolis is roughly $12,900 to $32,seven hundred. For example, in the event you like to prepare dinner, splurging on a six-burner range will improve your enjoyment and the functionality of your kitchen. Investing in a high quality stove, dishwasher or fridge can certainly drive up your prices.
Likewise, the bigger your house is, the extra you'll be able to expect to pay for remodeling multiple rooms For instance, remodeling a complete home that is fewer than 1,000 sq. ft costs a mean of $18,347, while a 3,000- to 4,000-square foot dwelling prices a mean of $36,121.

Grafton Elliot Smith : biography
Professional career
Smith was born in Grafton, New South Wales. He attended Sydney Boys High School,http://www.shsobu.org.au/wp-content/uploads/imperial-honours.pdf he was awarded a degree in medicine at the University of Sydney (Doctor of Medicine in 1895, with a dissertation on the fore-brain of the monotremes) and developed an interest in the anatomy of the human brain. He held a travelling scholarship at Cambridge in 1896, then he catalogued the human brain-collection of the British Museum. From 1900-1909 he was the first chairholder of anatomy at the Cairo School of Medicine and investigated the brains of Egyptian mummies. He was the first scholar to x-ray a mummy.
In 1907 he became archaeological advisor to the archaeological survey of Nubia. From 1909-1919 he was Professor for anatomy in Manchester, 1919-1937 he held the chair of Anatomy at the University College London. He was elected President of the Anatomical Society of Great Britain and Ireland for 1924 to 1927. During World War I he attended military hospitals for shell shock and served on the British General Medical Council.
Smith was the leading specialist on the evolution of the brain of his day. Many of his ideas on the evolution of the primate brain still form the core of present scholarship. He proposed the following stages of development:
- a smell-dominated insectivore of the jumping shrew-type
- vision-dominated animals with an expanded cortex of tree-shrew-type
- acutely visioned, manually dexterous mammals of tarsius-type
- monkeys
- anthropoids using their hands to use and produce tools
Honours and awards
He was decorated by the Khedive of Egypt, Abbas Hilmy in 1909. He became Fellow of the Royal Society in 1907, FRCP, cross of the French Legion of Honour, and was knighted in 1934. In 1912 he received the Royal Medal of the Royal Society, in 1930 the Honorary Gold Medal of the Royal College of Surgeons, in 1936 the Huxley Memorial Medal from the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland.
European hypothesis
British anthropologists Arthur Keith and Grafton Elliot Smith both supported the European origin of humankind as opposed to models of Asian and African origin.Handbook of paleoanthropology, volume 1, Winfriend Henke, Thorolf Hardt, p. 31 In several of his works, Smith argued that Europe was the cradle of humanity, identifying a European Mediterranean race as the occupants of the original home of modern humans. His cradle was large, as he claimed the Mediterranean race had occupied the Levant, Egypt and western Europe, including the British isles. He especially linked the Mediterranean race to the civilization of Egypt. Smith's arguments later became known as his theory of diffusionism.Archeological theory, who sets the agenda? Norman Yoffee, Andrew Sherratt, p. 47 According to Smith and William James Perry Egypt was the source of all cultural innovations and the ultimate source of human civilization.Ian Shaw A Dictionary of Archaeology 2002, p. 200
According to Smith "Man did not become truly erect until his brain had developed in a very particular way to make it possible for him to use his hands", this line of reasoning reinforced the European origin of human which both Smith and Arthur Keith supported as the mostly large brained specimens such as the Cro-magnon had been found in Europe.Studying human origins, disciplinary history and epistemology, Raymond Corbey, Wil Roebroeks, p. 51
The term 'hyperdiffusionism' seems to have been coined by the British archaeologist Glyn Daniel in his book The Idea of Prehistory (1962) with a somewhat derogatory intention. It was intended to represent extremes of diffusionism, a theme popular in early 20th century archaeology that itself has been subject to criticism. Smith believed that all megalithic phenomena, be it in Northwestern Europe, India, Japan or Mesoamerica, originated in ancient Egypt. "Small groups of people, moving mainly by sea, settled at certain places and there made rude imitations of the Egyptian monuments of the Pyramid Age." (Smith 1911, ix). Smith believed in a direct diffusion to Syria, Crete, East Africa, Southern Arabia and Sumer, while other areas were influenced by secondary diffusion. The neolithic culture of Europe was derived from Egypt as well, according to Smith. The concept of hyperdiffusionism is now referred to by more neutral terms (when referring to the Americas) such as Pre-Columbian trans-oceanic contact.

Thanks for reminding me about that branch!
I have now updated index.html, it uses the same CSS as the packaging guide
itself, and no longer relies on external resources.
Now, who can update the website for me?

Binghamton Mets 29-30
Shane Carle (6-4, 3.38 ERA) @ Michael Fulmer (1-0, 3.86 ERA)

3B – Dustin Lawley – 0-1
RF – Eudy Pina – 0-1
P – Michael Fulmer – 0-1, SO
Pre-game notes: Gavin Cecchini was scratched during warmup's yesterday, although that was just precautionary; Michael Fulmer had his worst performance to date in his last start for Binghamton, allowing 7 R (6 ER) on 7 hits in 5.1 IP, which nearly doubled his ER total with Binghamton; Fulmer struck out a season low of 2 batters in his last start, dropping his K% to 15.3%, and after picking up 9 K's in his only start with St. Lucie, Fulmer's AA high is 5; Michael Conforto has reached base in all 11 games with Binghamton, and he has a 1.169 OPS in his first 48 AA PA (!); after 4 hits and 2 walks combined over the first two days of June, Jared King is 2 for his last 23 with 2 walks since; Eudy Pina has a single in 4 straight game, but a strikeout in 11 straight. UPDATE: Chase Huchingson has been promoted to Las Vegas, and Julian Hilario has been added back into the B-Mets bullpen.
St. Lucie Mets 30-30
@ Logan Taylor (1-4, 4.58 ERA)
vs. Palm Beach (28-32) at 6:30 PM
Today: L 2-1, Taylor (4.23 ERA) – 6.2 IP, 6 H, 2 R (1 ER), 2 BB, 4 SO, HBP, 10 GO: 5 FO

DH – Matt Oberste – 2-3, RBI (27), BB

Kyle Regnault (2.33 ERA) – 1 IP, BB, SO, 2 GO, 1 IR – 0 S
Mike Hepple (2.22 ERA) – 1.1 IP, BB, SO, 3 GO, 2 IR – 0 S
Post-game recap: Logan Taylor continued his strong run with St. Lucie, going 6+ with 1 ER or less for the third straight start – 19.2 IP, 0.92 ERA, 15 H, 9 K: 8 BB – but it wasn't enough on a night when the bats went cold. St. Lucie finished 1-8 with RISP, with the only hit coming for their only run in the 1st inning. Cruzado hit a one-out double into the right-center field gap, and then scored two batters later on an RBI single from Oberste. After that, the Mets only had 2 runners reach in the same inning twice. Their best chance came in the 6th, with the first two reaching and the 2-3-4 batters due up, but they'd be retired in order, with no noise made. Taylor's recent control issues hurt him in both innings he allowed a run. With one out in the 4th, he hit Derek Gibson with a pitch, and then threw a wild pitch to the next batter – Gibson would score on a two out double from Carson Kelly, a batter who has killed the Mets this year. In the 5th, it was a leadoff walk that came back to burn him, although the runner would come home on a passed ball. The bullpen continued their fine work over the final 2+ innings, but the offense couldn't capitalize when they got two on with one out in the 9th.
Pre-game notes: Jeff McNeil left in the 1st inning of the first game yesterday, and then did not return; Logan Taylor is coming off his best two starts in the FSL, allowed 3 R (1 ER), on 9 hits and 6 walks in 13 IP, with only 5 strikeouts but only a .506 OPS allowed; Victor Cruzado is only 4-17 since coming off the DL, but that's a single in 4 of 5 games after missing a month, and it's just nice to have him back in the lineup; Stefan Sabol has reached base in all 11 games in St. Lucie, including 9 games with a hit, and 4 multi-hit games – .325/.400/.500 in his first 45 PA with St Lucie; in the 29 games since May 12th, Dominic Smith hasn't gone more than two games without a double, and he's only gone two games without a double 4 times (he has 19 doubles during that span).
Savannah Sand Gnats 33-27
Scarlyn Reyes (5-4, 2.86 ERA) @ Nick Gardewine (4-4, 3.16 ERA)
@Hickory (38-21) at 7:00 PM
Yesterday: W 4-3 (Savannah, West Virginia)
Today: W 8-6, Reyes (3.51 ERA) – 6 IP, 5 H, 6 R, 4 BB, 5 SO, HBP, 10 GO
2B – Jonathan Johnson – 3-5, 2 R, 3B (3), HR (2), RBI (11), SB (10), SO
SS – Luis Guillorme – 2-4, R, RBI (27), SAC
RF – Wuilmer Becerra – 1-4, 2 R, HR (8), 2 RBI (33), BB, SO
3B – Eudor Garcia – 1-4
1B – Jon Leroux – 2-4, R, RBI (27)
LF – John Mora – 1-4, R, 3B (7), RBI (29), SO
DH – Jean Rodriguez – 1-4, R, 3 SO
C – Tomas Nido – 1-4, RBI (20), 2 SO
CF – Patrick Biondi – 1-4, GIDP
Paul Paez (H, 1, 1.26 ERA) – 2 IP, H, 2 SO, 3 GO
Jimmy Duff (S, 5, 3.03 ERA) – 1 IP, SO, 1 GO
Post-game recap: The Sand Gnats won their 10th straight game, coming out on top after a back-and-forth game in the opener against Hickory. Reyes did not have his best stuff, allowing two runs in the 1st inning on 3 walks, an RBI single, and an RBI groundout – he walked the first two batters of the game. Savannah charged right back to tie the game, with John Mora extending his triple to 7 games on his 7th triple of the year, scoring Leroux from 1B. Mora would come home two batters later Nido's only hit of the night. Johnson's big night continued in the 3rd with a leadoff triple, and Guillorme singled him home for a 3-2 lead. That lead would not last long, with Jose Trevino launching his 8th homerun off of Reyes with one out in the bottom of the 3rd. But Savannah jumped ahead again in the 5th, with a Wuilmer Becerra walk sparking the run, which is always nice to see. Becerra would advance to 2B on a passed ball and score on Leroux's second hit of the game. This lead lasted a little longer, but then Tripp Martin hit a 2R bomb with two outs in the 6th, right after Reyes walked his fourth batter of the game. But Savannah still wouldn't quit, taking the lead back within 3 batters in the 7th inning, thanks to a pair of homeruns from Johnson and Becerra - Johnson turned on a 97 MPH heater for his bomb, and Becerra turned on a 96 MPH heater. Paul Paez came in for the 7th and pitched two strong innings, picking off the only batter to reach. He yielded to the Duff-man in the 9th, and James Duff picked up save #5 with a perfect frame. Johnson finished a double shy of the cycle, and he knew about it going into that last AB. He's having a great season, earning that SAL All-Star nod, and hopefully a promo to the 2B spot that should open in St. Lucie during the second half when Jeff McNeil is promoted.

Pre-game notes: Scarlyn Reyes is the reigning SAL Pitcher of the Week for his 7 shutout innings against Greenville on the 5th; Savannah has won 9 in a row and are in a tie for 1st place with Greenville (who they swept during this streak); Jon Leroux has a hit in 11 of 12 games - .340/.353/.480 with a double and 2 bombs – including a game tying HR in last night's game, and a walk off homerun right before this streak started; good thing Vicente Lupo's demotion to Brookyln was only a roster move things, as he's been much improved lately: he has a hit in 5 of 6 games, with 3 multi-hit games during that span and only 4 K in 22 PA (a huge improvement for him), and his average is up to .207, with the OBP (.299) nearly back on the right side of .300; John Mora has a 6-game hitting streak – .435/.462/.739 with 3 doubles and 2 triples – and hits in 8 of his last 9 games; Tomas Nido has 6 hits during a modest 4-game hitting streak, but included are a double, triple and homerun; Nido has 6 XBH total over his last 11 games (3 2B, 3B, 2 HR = .269 ISO over 45 PA).
Minors MVP of the Day – Jonathan Johnson came up a double shy of the cycle, plus a stolen base, and he's up to a .333/.430/.474 slash for the season.
Minors Cy of the Day – Michael Fulmer was having his best start of the year for Binghamton when Mother Nature intervened with a lot of rain and lightning, suspending the game in the bottom of the fourth. There were some other good starts in the system, but Fulmer was awesome.

By: DL
Anyone in recovery knows who they are -- hell, that's the reason they're there. I'm not referring to the likes of Left Side and Right Side. That's a whole-lot-a-trouble in their own right. No, I'm referring to a different kind of resident, the ones that are there illegally, yet we allow them to stay there -- rent free. Kinda contradictory, I know. But it's true. And they take up valuable space between our ears.
But it doesn't have to be like that. At least, that's the conclusion I've come to several times today. And by several, I mean after long-hour-after-hour-sessions-multiple-times-throughout-the-day, several. Ya.
I ran into an issue recently, where I had really upset someone I care about. A lot. I could go on and on about the details of the event, except... it doesn't really matter. I really hurt this person. I just didn't know exactly how, and that left a vacancy, one that Left Side and Right Side wanted nothing to do with... well, except for inviting in the BS.
Brain Squatters.
They're a whole complicated set of their own, because usually, a resolution to the problem can't ever be reached. At least with Left Side and Right Side, there always seemed to be a conclusion to the arguments, typically ones that ended pretty poorly, or with lots of beatings. But it's not so with the BS. With the BS, the argument just lingers. Who's the right one? And why? And what about when they [this] or [that]? And what about the inventory of the other party involved? When are they going to clean up their act? I forgave them then, and they didn't even know it bothered me! (Well, that's a different problem entirely... anyway.)
The obsession to find the answer I want by arguing with "them" grows so strong that I can think of little more than how the conversation should go, or how it would go if it were happening right here, right now, in front of me... if only the other person was in the room. I'd explain why it was okay to act like I did, I could justify what I did, and prove that "I was right after all, damn it!" If only they were here... in front of me.
But they weren't, the Brain Squatters were.
brain squat·ter
/brān/ ˈskwädər/
- the imagined person or event, whether created or real, that occupies an otherwise docile and unwonted portion of an individual's time in thought and emotion whilst having a discussion or argument that is not actually taking place
- a thought process involving a particular person or event, or a set of related people and events, that one thinks about continually in an attempt to define a solution to a perceived problem, whether or not the issue truly exists
No matter how many times I searched and questioned and requested and argued and begged and pleaded inside my own head to create my solution, all I got -- at best -- were hunches and possibilities, but no settlement. I could find no resolution to the problem that, by this time, had grown into a huge fight for survival between them... and me.
Having been in the various programs for a little bit of time now, and being a believer in step work, I knew my answer lay in my heart, not my brain; I can't get answers from someone that simply isn't in the same room. Not that I didn't try, mind you. But this is where I win with the various programs I currently work, because it is using them that I meditate to calm my mind, clear the unnecessary thought pollution, and work through the process -- from my side of the street. Where had I been wrong in what had happened? Where had I contributed to the misunderstanding or the skewed perception of the intention at hand? What was my part in all of this? -- and then see either 1) that I was indeed in the wrong, or that 2), "shit happens, crap occurs" as my father would say. Maybe nobody was at fault.
I mean, really, it is possible that no one is at fault for the issue, it simply happened. Someone misunderstood a comment or an intention. I wouldn't call that a fault, I'd call that a "happen." But in my heart, I know that's a scapegoat most of the time, and sadly, reluctantly, option one was beginning to stare me in the eyes.
It's funny. I'd run into this conclusion multiple times during this process, and yet I reworked and reworked the problems, determined to gain control and demonstrate how and why I was in the right; or at least, not in the wrong -- that maybe shit did just happen, and crap did just occur -- yet I wound up back here every time.
As it turns out, I found many answers working through the steps. It still took me a while to get past the petty crap that the Brain Squatters were lying to me about -- especially when Left Side and Right Side began to chime in, reminding me of what they thought about who I was and why the BSs were actually correct. Interestingly, I didn't react to them this time, I responded -- I sent them back to their corners and then let go of the Brain Squatters. Ya. It turns out that I was holding them more hostage than they were me. Once I let go, things just began to work out. Imagine that.
Seeing what my part was and where it was at was a difficult argument to have, and the end results were even more difficult to swallow -- but you know what? I was finally able to continue my day and go to sleep that night. The next step was the hard one, because I didn't know what to expect. But we've talked about expectations before.

Florida Whammy Entertainment maintains an in-house Software Development Unit that is responsible for developing all of our game show programming engines that we use. On occasion, a project that can best be solved and helped by a software engine is thrown our way, and when possible, we gladly rise to the challenge.
Since the Software Development branch of our organization is limited in resources, it may not always be available and there may be projects that are simply too big for us to handle.

We have created or can create a software program to help you with your needs. Not sure if you need our software development services? Contact us and tell us about what you're doing at your event, chances are we have a software solution for something you haven't even realized.

Reflections of life (in Kerala) : Let me take some rest
Shot from chambakara. A fisher man taking a break in between work.
I took the picture from a bridge. It was on Nov 1st 2008, "Kerala Piravi day meaning birth date of Kerala state of India. My idea was to capture life of a common man on "Kerala Pirvi Day". With this in mind, I went to nearby fish market and there I was standing on a bridge. I was watching a fisherman catching fish with his nets. After some time he came just bellow the bridge where I was standing. He want to take a break for smoking. I was more than happy seeing this. Took the shot. This is one of my favorite images in my collection.

Marie A. Longley
LEWISTON — Marie Ange Longley, 91, of Lewiston, died Sunday, March 11, 2012 at The Hospice House of Androscoggin Home Care & Hospice in Auburn where she spent her last days surrounded by her family.
After leaving the family home in Lewiston in November, 2003, Marie spent most of her remaining years at the Montello Heights Retirement Community, followed by a short stay at Russell Park Living Center, both in Lewiston.
Marie was born July 6, 1920, in St-Alexis-de-Matapedia, Quebec, to Arthur and Cedelise (Dufour) Plourde. While she was still an infant, her family moved to Lewiston in 1923, arriving via the Grand Trunk Railroad, where Marie lived the rest of her life. On April 26, 1947 she married Thomas Allen (Al) Longley, who passed away on May 8, 1983. Together they raised their five children.
She had a strong faith in God and was a longtime member of St. Patrick's Church in Lewiston. She was active in the Rosary Sodality, and volunteered her time at the St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Store. In addition to being a housekeeper, Marie worked for a time in the Lewiston School Lunch Program. In the 1940s, she worked in the Cushman Shoe Shop in Auburn.
One of her early hobbies included still life painting, which was quite remarkable. Her children wonder where this expression would have led had she received formal training. Marie was the best and most loving mother to her children. They recall all the care that she took in cooking and baking for them. She was the heart and warmth of their home, filling it with the aromas of fresh baked cookies, cakes, and roasts.
She is survived by five children, Peter Longley of Cumberland, Susan Tardif of Sanford, Thomas of Turner, Daniel of Raymond and Gerald of Greene; 13 grandchildren; and a growing list of great-grandchildren currently numbered at 13; and surviving brothers and sisters.
Donations, condolences and a photo tribute may be accessed online at www.albert-burpee.com. Arrangements were by Albert & Burpee Funeral Home in Lewiston. Visitation and funeral services were held on Wednesday. Interment will be in the spring at the Maine Veterans Memorial Cemetery.
Donations may be made in her memory to: Alzheimer's Association Maine Chapter, 383 US Route One, Suite 2C, Scarborough, ME 04074.

At the end of my block is a bustling street - San Pedro, presumably named for the park further down hill or the springs in the park or most likely both. Or quite possibly the first pope. But there is a much more compelling mystery just across the intersection. It comes in the shape of a billboard that up until recently depicted two googly-eyed, cartoon lions inside a heart which nestled comfortably beside the phrase, "George Loves Kym!"
I hadn't noticed this unusual declaration of affection until my friend Marc pointed it out one day from my roof terrace. Aside from the unobstructed view of the sunset to the West, the spectacular view of downtown to the South, and the other O'Neil Ford-designed tower at Trinity University to the Northeast, this billboard is my favorite landmark in plain sight from my sprawling private balcony. Unfortunately, all the attention it deserves is often trumped by the others on this glorious horizon. They distract me and thus is why I hadn't noticed when it's sappy expression of love changed on me. It now pictures two cartoon scuba divers in fond embrace, and instead of George affronting his amore for all the world to witness as they drive by, it is Kym's turn these days.
Austin, Texas's increasingly gentrified and trendy State Capitol, employs the slogan in retaliation - "Keep Austin Weird", led by the independent business bureau or something like that. I think it's too late for Austin. Everytime I go there (which actually has been a while) I can't help but notice that those who persist to be weird there do so in vain. It's a hopeless struggle - the college town hipsters have lost the wrestling match against the corporate magnates. Hip it might still be, but the so-called weirdness is ever decreasing.
Perhaps as a joke, or possibly even as a smart campaign to avoid a similar fate, Texas's largest little town - San Antonio adapted a similar motto, "Keep San Antonio Lame." And on the surface San Antonio is lame: bars close at midnight in most cases, people are rarely out and about en masse, nothing is open on Sunday, and good lord there has got to be more to do sometimes. My standard retort has been that yes, while sleepy, San Antonio retains it's authenticity. It doesn't try to be cool, which to me is in fact the definition of cool. We make our own fun. It's more rewarding that way.
Interestingly enough, when it does try to be cool, failure typically ensues. I can't even count how many trendy bars have closed downtown.
Lame or not, the longer I live here, the more it occurs to me that I've been misinformed. San Antonio is the weird one. And that billboard down the street is a perfect example. Which leads me to believe that San Antonio is weird because people can afford to be. In Austin, a modest couple couldn't afford to rent an entire billboard to use. Only Starbucks can do that in any resemblance of normalcy.
"Retaining it's authenticity" is a nice way of saying that the cost of living here is low. Which is a nice way of saying that there are a Hell of a lot of people here living in slums and totally cool with it. Some of these are even as close as across from the aforementioned park with the springs off San Pedro down the hill. And reasonably speaking, the possibility that Kym and her lover George live in such a nearby shanty town is quite high. I mean, why would they choose a billboard as a means by which to share their mutual admiration if they didn't drive by it everyday on the way home?
No, George and Kym are not wealthy folks. I don't think any respectable, high-class resident of my affluent neighborhood Monte Vista would go so far. I make that assumption not based on any judgment of taste. It's just that when you think about it, rich people (obviously these two have an abundance of love, I mean rich in the monetary sense) have the ability to express (again, materialistically speaking) their mutual affections whenever they want to whether that be with organic truffles from Whole Foods or over-priced tulips at a frequency of whenever they damn well please - if they wanted to. But I am willing to bet that expressing love, and expressing it in a big way for all the world to see, is with little doubt, a money saving tactic. Their love is evident to all and on a monthly installment plan.
But I digress, I've analyzed Kym and George's ability to afford weirdness despite their entirely speculative inability to afford more, if only to tell about last night. I attended a show of local San Antonio musicians - all of whom fit immaculately into my description of San Antonio's character - embracing lameness is all the more weird.
Patsy's Ice House - an utter hole-in-the-wall dive bar who's idea to serve food is so frightening to even it's regulars that they don't even dare order a thing even though they had a shrimp special last night - featured Jason Gerard among other cacophonous disasters that opened for him.
We subjected ourselves willingly to this offensive excuse for a concert only because someone noticed on Jason Gerard's myspace page that he describes himself in this way:
"Jason is truly one of the most innovative artists of our time, and hopes to be one of the most influential in music history."
Anyone making that kind of claim is asking to be mocked by a group of San Antonians with nothing better to do on a Saturday night. At least there was no cover and they served beer. What more could you ask for in a night out anyway?
The first group to go on was an industrial synth pop duo. All their songs sounded like a regurgitated late 70's Pink Floyd, just not even remotely exuding that kind of talent and ingenuity.
The band that preceded poor Jason was so bad it hurt. It was a family act, unleashing to the unsuspecting public their rancid rock 'n' roll fantasies. The frontman lead singer and guitarist was the beer-belly clad patriarch who's aspiring grunge aesthetic came across as far more slovenly than remotely cool. His adoring wife played the synth and held up a performance reminiscent of this. But by far the saddest of the bunch was their son who I sympathized with, only if he had been duped into participating. He contributed awkward excuses for percussive nuances on the bongos and the conga drums. They were set up in a line and played just like a drum set. Maybe it was cheaper that way. He embarrassed himself and his family, ending each song by nailing a small crash cymbal with his fist. Together they covered Judas Priest's cover of Joan Baez's Diamonds & Rust. I can't even make that up. And to give them some credit, the happiness they radiated as they performed their classic rock interpretations was penetrating. However, I dare ask - couldn't they have had the same amount of fun in their garage? Maybe the neighbors complained...
Putting myself through almost a whole hour of their music got me to thinking. This wouldn't happen in any other city. They would be rushed by a mob or pelted with rotten produce before anyone would voluntarily sit though such a jarring display. By the time poor Jason Gerard took the stage, our group mock fest couldn't take anymore and we bolted after a mere three songs. Not that he had a lot going for him in the first place. He wore geeky wire rimmed glasses and flip flops as he took the stage to share his sweet noise.
To make matters worse, San Antonio is hosting a pre-South by Southwest festival of its own called, would you believe it - South by San Antonio. This might be a good idea, reeling in other bands already traveling from afar to Austin. Why shouldn't they swing by San Antone on the way? We're craving good music here! However, Jason Gerard mentioned that he is already a part of the SXSA line-up. Could this attempt at cool, actually be that lame?
I realize I'm coming across like the pretentious Austin hipsters I as poking fun at earlier. Too good for San Antonio music am I? People can't just go to bar and have a good time with a few guitars? No, that's not it at all. Everyone's got to start somewhere and why shouldn't it be at Patsy's Ice House.
My strident affections only exist to help better illustrate my point. This city is a place where cool kids go out of their way to see lame bands perform in shrimp-serving dump venues on a Saturday night. And I love how weird we are! We refuse to be stifled by the banality of our fair metropolis. As a consolation prize, each of us finds our place in a city teeming in weird billboard touting love.
In other news, my friend Marc and I went on a fun little biking adventure this afternoon. Here are a few photos snapped out and about this town I claim for all in weird:
Marc calling Victoria at the Japanese Sunken Gardens.
The sadly defunct Sunken Garden amphitheater. Admittedly, it is awfully lame that San Antonio would allow such a cool venue to fall into disarray.
I love the stadium dedication.
The best view of downtown in the city is in the stadium parking lot.
Tower at Trinity U.
Victoria met us for ice cream later.
And now for a complete non-sequitor -
I totally have a beard.

Sketch #54 12x12
Joni sent me this frosty layout example. I just love the papers she used.
Visit Joni's blog HERE.
Tami created another one of her great two pagers from this one page sketch. Sometimes she uses the same sketch design twice and maybe turns one of the pages, but this time she actually stretched the design and I love the result! You must visit Tami's blog here for close ups and details, check out her fabric die cut embellishments up close.
My friend, Laurie, sent me her example of this sketch and I think its just totally fun. I dare you not to sing along! If you visit Laurie's blog here you can see close ups as well as a video of this song. :)
Sabrina was sweet enought to send me a link to her layout for this sketch. It's really so cute. Visit Sabrina's blog here to see close ups and some of her other pages.
Merrick sent this totally summery version and just look at the size of that Hawaiian Ice! I want one now.

The Abaco branch of the Bahamas Air Sea Rescue Association (BASRA) held their annual Evening of Elegance fundraising dinner and auction on January 25 at the Abaco Inn on Elbow Cay. BASRA is a volunteer organization that is committed to providing emergency services and saving the lives of distressed boaters and airmen in The Bahamas.
In 2013 the Abaco branch of BASRA was awarded the prestigious Association for Rescue at Sea Caribbean Search and Rescue. In November 2011 the local chapter of BASRA responded in severe weather conditions on the Sea of Abaco and saved 61 lives.
The Evening of Elegance was sponsored by Burns House Ltd and by Veuve Cliquot & Hennessey. The fundraising dinner was $125 per plate. Also raising funds for BASRA was a silent auction that ran from Jan 20 until that evening.
Included among the many items on the auction block were: a seat on the "Abaco Rage", a one week stay at Lubbers Quarters, and Albury Sail Shop bag, artwork by Guy Harvey, spa treatment and lunch for two at Baker's Bay, a half day excursion with Captain Plug, a unique Hope Town Canvas bag, a week stay in Ireland, hand-painted bicycles by Kim Rody, and many more.
One of the most hotly contested bid items was a large, hardback 007 James Bond Archive book. It was signed by James Bond himself – Sean Connery – and dated January 2014.
Complimentary Veuve Clicquot champagne was served to the well-dressed crowd.
The auction was presided over by the energetic Tania Duncombe. Throughout the evening she encouraged everyone to open their wallets and support BASRA, as well as get a chance to win the many great prizes. Judging by the busy auction floor and flurry of activity as time was counting down, many happily responded.
The Abaco Inn served an indulgent meal for those in attendance: Portabello Mushroom & Brie Soup, Belgian Endive Salad, Filet Oskar (beef tenderloin topped with lobster and béarnaise sauce) and a dessert of Pavlova. Manager Tom Hazel was on hand to ensure everyone was having a good time.
BASRA celebrated 50 years of "Volunteers Saving Lives at Sea" this year.

Michael Clark Proves That (20/10 Vision) Does Exist In The Basketball World
If you don't know Michael Clark then it's about time you get...
IOWA CITY, Ia — Simon Block, the head of British boxing, told me a year ago that he was hoping for a Rickey Hatton-Floyd Mayweather fight sooner as oppose to later. He feared that Hatton did not have the skills to match up against Mayweather but hoped that his brawling style could at least give him a chance.
In December, Hatton gets his chance at Mayweather and one big chance to collect the big PPV money. Hatton's brawling style won him fans in his native Manchester and like his fellow brit Joe Calzaghe; Hatton fills arenas.
Mayweather had trouble selling out his home town for a fight and despite his awesome skills; Mayweather has never yet catch boxing fans imagination. This guy may be the best pound for pound fighter over the past three decades, but he is still underappreciated. Hatton not just filled arenas in England but many of his dedicated fans traveled across the ocean to see their hero.
Mayweather is a surgeon whose quick hands slices through opponents' defenses. His closet fights was his two fights with Jose Castillo and his last fight with Oscar De Hoya. Most of his fights proved to one sided affairs and as it is often said, speed kills. Hatton depends upon brute strength.
For old fight fans, just think Gene Fullmer vs. Sugar Ray Robinson or Carmen Basilio vs. Robinson. In those fights, the slick boxer faced the strong brute and over a period of four fights, Robinson split his four fights with Basilio and Fullmer but then Robinson was close to 40 and the left hook that stopped Fullmer in their rematch was one of boxing great left hooks.
Hatton grabs, wrestles and occasionally throw punches while wearing out his opponent. Sometimes, his style resembled a welterweight version of former heavyweight champion John Ruiz. Unlike Ruiz, Hatton never seem to irritate fans and his fellow British loved his pluckiness.
There is a blue collar quality to Hatton and that is what warms his fellow British hearts. They viewed him as one of their own. While Mayweather 's last victory over De La Hoya gained begrudging respect among boxing fans and pundits,t Hatton is more important to money side of this PPV.
This has been Mayweather curse, he is so good that he makes it look too easy at times. His last fight with De La Hoya set records simply because of De La Hoya star power.
In this fight, it's Mayweather's to lose for he has the skills to tame the brawling Hatton. Hatton has a tendency to cut and Mayweather quick hands will find Hatton face enough times. The one chance Hatton has to wear Mayweather out and simply stay on Mayweather chest the entire fight.
He can out- quick or out box but by staying on Mayweather's chest, he denies Mayweather a chance to fully extend his punches and tired fighters lose their quickness.
Mayweather should win and win easily but for Hatton, this is the one fight he has looked forward. Upset Mayweather and he will build new fans here in the state. His last fight against Castillo was his best since coming to the states.
It will be argued that Castillo showed the wear and tear of his kick ass, coming forward style but Hatton beat a good fighter by first dominating Castillo and taking his heart before ending the fight.
Can he do it against Mayweather?

I think there must be a joke in here somewhere. How about...
How many Frenchman does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Ten. One to do the work and nine to get all huffy about it.
But seriously folks. I won't condemn a whole nation for the actions of a few. After all pretty much the same thing could be said for we Americans. But since I'm sitting on this side of the pond these days, let me just share with you the scandal de jour. Late last week, this ad campaign was launched:
The gist of it? The government is explaining its spending on education, sustainable development, the digital economy, research, and economic development as investments in the country's future. The lady in her Phrygian cap, the headgear of the French revolution, is clearly Marianne, whom the rest of you may better know looking like this.
But rather than making everyone feel all warm and fuzzy, it appears that the ad campaign has pretty much pissed off everyone. The left is outraged by the expense of the campaign and its timing, claiming that it's propaganda for the UMP (Sarkozy's party) on the eve of regional elections.
Their response?
The placard refers to a very ill-mannered remark made by Sarkozy in 2008 to someone reaching out to grab his hand at a public event. The whole thing was captured on a cell phone video and keeps getting trotted out to show Sarkozy's contempt for real people.
The feminists see it as a thinly veiled message that women should put up and shut up and just keep pushing out the babies. And they have a point, she's barefoot and pregnant, even though that white is awfully virginal.
Translation: Be a mother and keep quiet.
I'm not taking sides in this debate but I sure am enjoying the show.

We measured the total concentration of Zn and Cu in the human blood serum during in vitro aging in normal geomagentic field and zero magnetic field respectively (ZMF). The investigaton was carried out on blood collected from normal patients and brochial asthma patients. It was found that only copper was sensitive to the magnetic environment. The peculiar finding was that the in vitro aging effect of the blood was slowed down for most of the asthma types of pathologies. It is concluded that that ion binding to serum proteins and /or transport through cell membranes is sensitive to the magnetic environment.

One of those days you need to do. Sort the bills out etc. Even in Scotland. Much better than 20 years ago when you had only one office you could go to.
So yes up here and doing the mundane bills amongst sights.
Life and technology has certainly progressed so much since the "olden days".
I say that tongue in cheek, but the kiddos would refer to my youth as back in the dark ages.
Right now I'm in Greggs abusing a hot chocolate. Leven hasn't much rocking on its high street so that was my choice.

Choke the goose? A new euphemism, apparently, and the main reason why I included this article.
Dateline 2015-08-20, FMT:
PKR has warned the Federal Government not to choke the goose which lays its golden eggs, by forcing state-owned oil and gas company Petronas to draw on its reserves to pay unreasonably high 2015 dividends amidst a sharp decrease in the company's profits.
"Petronas has committed RM26 billion dividends to the Federal Government of Malaysia despite a sharp 55% drop of crude oil price in 2015," Bayan Baru MP Sim Tze Tzin said in a media statement issued yesterday.
"When a company draws into its reserves to pay for dividends, it shows a worrying sign of financial health," he added.

A year in the life...
There are lots of horse farms in the area where we live, some of them quite large. We pass by them when we go for one of our walks.One day we saw a lot of cars and trucks with horse trailers headed down the road to one of the farms, so we decided to walk in that direction and see what was up. Turns out that one of the farms was having a horse show and those trailers were carrying the contestants.The show was just dressage, where the horses go through a series of movements in a small arena, or do a series of moves to music. None of that interesting stuff like jumping over fences or steeplechase, but still worth watching on a pleasant summer day. In terms of photography, most of the pictures I got were something only a horse fancier would appreciate.On the way out, we saw these giant sunflowers, so heavy with seeds that their heads were bent over. I shot this in black and white and darkened the sky a little to add tonal balance.
