Law in the Internet Society
My Compulsion
-- By
- 03 Nov 2017
I have been using social media since elementary school and throughout the years my dependence on social media platforms and the services I obtain through such platforms has exponentially increased. In about 2004 or 2005 I began using AOL Instant Messenger once or twice a week to communicate with my camp friends. I did so under the supervision of one of my parents and although I was free to use the internet to obtain information, I was limited in my use of the internet to communicate with others. My parents' were primarily concerned about the presence of adult individuals online who sought to communicate and initiate inappropriate relations with children. Over the years that concern remained central to my relationship with and use of technology and the threats that I perceived were all linked to the existence of third party individuals or groups who sought to benefit from my presence online. The various platforms I use addressed my concerns by including features that allowed me to report "inappropriate content" or "users" and to prevent them from contacting me or interacting with me online in the future. More and more apps were created, enabling me to access a wide range of goods and service without expending effort for a low cost. I, like many other citizens, was excited about the ease and affordability such apps offered and integrated their use into my daily life.
The Problem
While I was worrying about the potential for "creepy" people to reach me through the internet a new threat to my safety and privacy emerged. I was distracted by the sleek modern appearance of the devices and the ease with which I could use them to obtain anything I wanted. I did not stop to think about how companies were benefiting from my free use of their apps, nor did I think about the implications of my reliance on the apps for all of my consumption and communication desires. I was neither alone in my ignorance or naivete. Widespread use of these platforms has created a new problem, threatening the safety and privacy of individuals. The problem is that citizens of the US, some without knowing the consequences and most without even considering the consequences, have allowed the platforms we use to gather a level of information about our behavior that makes a new, hyper-efficient mode of despotism not only possible but inevitable (Times of India). And for now we can still pretend that our privacy has not been stripped away and that despotism is not inevitable because we live in a democracy and the government is not concerned with what "normal people" (law-abiding citizens who support at least some faction of the current regime) are doing.
I am the grandchild of Polish Jewish Holocaust survivors. I know exactly what happens when a government decides to eliminate masses of formerly "normal people" for the benefit of the nation. I know that governments can, and do, weed out dissidents for the sake of the nation. And I know that the platforms they handed us for our benefit, our amusement, social connection, and convenience, are really mechanisms for behavior collection beyond what Hitler and Stalin could have dreamed up. The right to privacy granted to us by the US Constitution is irrelevant to the oligarchs who have risen to power in the 21st Century. They are not members of government or law enforcement trying to peer through our blinds or listen to our calls. They don't need to a judge to issue a warrant to search our homes; they already know everything they could ever want to know about us.
Behavior Collection
Facebook, Google, Amazon, Apple, and Uber know more about my life than anyone else. They know what time I wake up, they know what I eat for breakfast, they know how I get to class and how long it takes me. They know exactly which bus I am on and which stop I get off at and where I walk. They know when and where I exercise and they know how many calories I burn. They know what I eat for lunch and they know what I will be eating for lunch three months from now because I will order it on my phone from the seasonal selections they provide for me. They know which books I read for school and for pleasure, which TV shows I watch and music I listen to. They don't need my neighbors to report me for reading Mao's Little Red Book or We by Zamyatin because they know when I bought those books, when I read them, and how long it took me.
In countries like China this information is already being used to "clearly oppose and resist the whole range of erroneous viewpoints" (
NY Times
). Our government may not be leading the behavior collection but they are allowing it, taking the information, and storing it for future use. The platforms have taken over our nation with the consent of our government leaders, who view information-gathering as an asset. But it is clear where we are heading. And when they decide that things would be easier without Jewish liberals from NY who read and think and question what they are doing and why they are doing it, they will know exactly where to find me. I won't be able to run or hide, I am already in shackles.
What Should I Do?
It isn't too late for me, or for the rest of us. I am trying to view my use of each app as a choice, and to assess whether it adds value to my life, how much value it adds, and what I must give up to obtain that value. I accept that the behavioral data the government possesses will ultimately be used to maintain despotic control. However, I am not sure how soon this will occur, and I feel that for now my rights in our democratic society have sufficient protection that I do not have to immediately give up all of the platforms I use. I deactivated my Facebook as a first step, and I am happy I did. My second step was to delete my Snapchat. Upon doing so I realized that my days seem longer and lonelier without the frequent snaps from my friends updating me on where they are and what they are doing. I miss having a casual way to check in throughout the day, and I miss receiving messages that are crafted for the sole purpose of including me in a friend's life despite the physical distance between us. My smartphone (iMessage and Snapchat in particular) serves as a security blanket of sorts, as long as I have it with me I know I have access to my support system and it helps me to feel less alone in this big, scary world.

Share Twitter Pinterest Email ©. WCS/Julie Larsen Maher News Environment Business & Policy Science Animals Home & Design Current Events Treehugger Voices News Archive Two new attractions – the Treetop Adventure and Nature Trek – turn the focus on the zoo's expansive forest and encouraging nature play. In addition to working to conserve more than two million square miles of wild places around the planet, the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) also happens to run New York City's Bronx Zoo. So it's little surprise that the parcel of land on which the zoo is situated is comprised of a beautiful 265 acres in the midst of the bustling city, including undeveloped woodland and the Bronx River, which is the only freshwater river remaining in NYC. And while the zoo's main attraction has traditionally been the animals, of course, the organization realized that they had another wonderful way to help connect zoo visitors with nature – create a veritable playground, for both kids and grown-ups – right there in the forest. And thus, the Treetop Adventure and Nature Trek were born. The zoo's new features include three options for city slickers in need of nature: Seven Aerial Climbing Courses © WCS/Julie Larsen MaherPart of the Treetop Adventure, the aerial courses give visitors a bird's-eye view of the Bronx River and surrounding woods while tackling climbing challenges set in the forest canopy. © WCS/Julie Larsen MaherSeven courses in total range from beginner to expert and include rope bridges, wobbly bridges, tightrope walks, ladders, rolling and swinging elements, ziplines, and more. Each course has eight to 12 challenges. And the hotshots can face the extreme test of the "jump descender" at the end of the expert course. Zipline Over the Bronx River © WCS/Julie Larsen Maher The zipline is a dual, side-by-side set-up that zooms zippers 50 feet above the Bronx River for 400 feet before sending them back for the return trip. Nature Trek: Family Adventure Course © WCS/Julie Larsen MaherThis family-friendly netted bridge-and-tower course features five towers that are up to two stories high and connected by a series of 12 different bridges spanning up to 30 feet. The course encourages balancing on a narrow beam, weaving between vertical barriers, stretching across wide steps, and climbing on wiggling surfaces. © WCS/Julie Larsen MaherThere is also the wonderful nature play zone which inspires children and families to engage in unstructured exploration of elements like sand, water, loose branches and other components of a natural playground. In other words, a place to get dirty ... in the best way.

The other review was so off the mark I had to write my own. This film is considered by most critics to be one of the best of 2019. ( 93% on Rotten tomatoes) The 56-minute single-take sequence shot in 3D is a cinematic marvel - watch this film just for that alone. Fortunately the entire film is gorgeous and brimming with brilliance. "Bi Gan's Long Day's Journey Into Night is as intoxicating as it is unexpected." New York Times Reviewer, Glenn Kenny
Slow, hard to understand, no emotional bonding with any of the characters, this is an indie art film movie that will not appeal to most.

By Fabien Oreve, Global Head of Trading, Candriam Investors Group
The most popular electronic trading tools are the multi-dealer platforms that have attracted a large spectrum of dealers, from global banks to regional banks. Some regional banks have managed to increase market share in their home market. Technology has been important in helping asset managers gain access to a wider range of liquidity providers. More competition and more specialization in business segments have forced the largest dealers to improve efficiency and technology using dynamic pricing algorithms for small orders in liquid instruments. Unlike smart order-routing in equities, electronic trading is rather uniform in the bond markets, where small-to-medium size transactions occur mainly through requests-for-quotes (RFQs) to dealers. Despite a wider presence of dealers in these platforms, the reduction in secondary market liquidity has been more visible since asset managers started to focus on transaction cost analysis. Asset managers' trading desks have also received more demands from pension funds and mutual funds for price improvement inside the bid-ask spread disclosed by the existing platforms.
The liquidity issues in the secondary corporate bond market and the number of "rejected" or "passed" orders have been more frequent recently – for a couple of reasons:
- Banks have reduced their inventory of bonds due to Basel III regulations: they have less capacity to take bonds in their balance sheet and they may have less willingness to trade sometimes due to more stringent risk management.
- Post-trade information in European bonds is insufficient: asset managers can only rely on their internal statistics to target the dealers that are most likely to transact specific instruments. Information is not optimal for investors on instruments they have never traded before.
As the new regulations require banks to take fewer risks with their own resources, it is important to add fluidity in the credit markets. Agency trading through order books can be an interesting means of gaining access to a wider range of participants in the secondary market; it can also add transparency to the calculation of transaction costs. However, agency trading will be a sustainable solution for asset managers only if order book providers continue to innovate.
For small-to-medium size orders, technology is the most important part of direct execution in equities, but you need a combination of technology and a relationship with the broker-dealer in corporate bonds. If you place a limit order and you are best bid or best offer, you will get some human support from the broker-dealer's team behind the system, but at the same time your order should be reflected automatically across conventional multi-dealer platforms. As many bonds structurally are not for sale, the probability of an order fill in a particular instrument may be low. A smart device should therefore also suggest that you replace the current order with another one in a similar instrument available in the trading system.
The evolution of market structure in the European credit markets is on-going but it will take some time to make electronic trading in the less liquid corporate bonds more efficient. Post-trade transparency for this asset class is another important feature that will help investors improve transaction cost analysis. However, the challenge here is transparency calibration or how to produce publicly post-trade reporting with an appropriate time delay for less liquid trades and large-size transactions. There are many more corporate bond issues outstanding than equities, which would be a permanent challenge for any European entity in charge of providing post-trade data. The ESMA (European Securities and Market Authority) consultation paper about MIFID II & MIFIR regulations contains a section on the "post-trade transparency requirements for non-equity instruments" and is a great opportunity for asset managers to outline their practical views.
Making alternative trading systems coexist with conventional multi-dealer platforms and voice-trading will bring more flexibility and efficiency to the execution of corporate bonds. Adding transparency to the European post-trade data with different levels of information – depending on the nature or size of the trade – will make corporate bond liquidity more likely to happen in the secondary market.

Hall: Childers is a nice guy who never stood out
Former Congressman Travis Childers would make a fine U.S. senator. His politics fairly well reflects the mindset of most northeast Mississippi voters — Mississippi voters in general, for that matter. He doesn't vote lockstep with the Democratic Party, was never a political leadership kind of guy and is genuinely a product of his upbringing and Prentiss County values.
But Travis Childers will not be the next U.S. senator from the Magnolia State.
This will come as no surprise to most voters, but Childers seemingly got into this race for one reason: Had incumbent U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran lost his primary, Childers was ready to wage a war for the heart of Mississippi voters. He would have tried to paint a narrative that offered a choice between moderate, pragmatic Mississippi values and a far-right national movement.
But Cochran won, which essentially leaves Childers as a lame-duck candidate.
In many ways, people were hoping Childers could rekindle his 2008 "magic" in 2014. He won a special election in a wide-open field after a runoff against then Southaven Mayor Greg Davis on May 13, 2008. Six months later, Childers once again defeated Davis in the regular general election, winning a full two-year term by a 10-percent margin.
Two events spurred Childers' victories in 2008:
1. An east vs. west competition within the First Congressional District. Childers represented the northeast block of Mississippi, while Davis represented a newer electorate from the Memphis suburban counties.
2. Barack Obama. While his organization was still in its infancy, it was being developed and fast. Childers tapped into that, and it helped propel him to victory.
Then Childers had to serve. He voted largely inline with his constituents, and he paid dearly for it.
Childers angered Democrats when he opposed the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), the American Clean Energy and Security Act (cap and trade), repeal of Don't Ask Don't Tell, and the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
Childers angered Republicans by supporting Nancy Pelosi for speaker, voting to expand of the Children's Health Insurance Program and not supporting the repeal of Obamacare.
Say what you want to about partisanship, but party matters. Childers essentially became a man without a party, and soon a man without a district. He was beat up pretty badly in 2010 in his re-election bid against then-state Sen. Alan Nunnelee. What Childers had going for him in 2008 was no longer there, and his record at least ruffled if not outright angered everyone to which it also appealed.
The geographic advantage was gone, Nunnelee being from Tupelo. As a Republican, Nunnelee easily picked up DeSoto County and other areas in the highly GOP west, which was already accustomed to voting against Childers.
The political winds also had changed. A national movement was sweeping Republicans into office. House races across the country became a referendum on who should lead in Congress: liberal Nancy Pelosi from California or conservative John Boehner from Ohio?
It was the typical mid-term elections of a first-term president — the opposing party usually wins big. Republicans did, and Childers was out.
This year, the bet was that Childers' moderate voting record would be appealing against the far-right stances of Chris McDaniel, if the challenger were to win. Childers would have had the backing of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee were Mississippi suddenly an open seat. Turnout the 40 percent most Democrats are assured in just about any statewide election, pull Republicans from north Mississippi who know and respect him, and then add in a handful of Republicans who thought McDaniel was bad for the state, and Childers could have won. It still would have been a tight race, but McDaniel was beatable for a Democrat like Childers.
But reality is that McDaniel lost (someone let him know that, please), and Childers is facing off against Cochran. At the end of the day, Childers doesn't offer Mississippians a compelling alternative to Cochran, who has served the state well.
And that may be Childers' lasting political legacy, that of a nice guy who reflected his hometown values but in doing so never was able to stand out enough to build a political career in Congress. And that doesn't mean you have to be a partisan firebrand to succeed — Cochran and Nunnelee have proven as much — but you do need a stronger base than Childers' cross-party voting earned him.
In Childers' case, it comes down to timing. As good as his timing was in 2008, it's been horrible ever since.

President Davie Jane Gilmour urged Saturday's graduates to transform the time spent and talents learned at Penn College into lives of lasting impact. As she also told their counterparts at May commencement, the president struck themes that cross generations and cultures alike – honesty, integrity, compassion, responsibility and obligation – in welcoming the newest members of a proud institution's "valued and virtuous history."
Virtues and Values
It is that time: a time that I look forward to until it arrives, because I know the moment will pass too quickly. I wish that time could stand still in this instant just before you leave us.
It is so rewarding for me to stand here and look at all of you and to know that the world will be better because you are in it.
You are special, not only to the people here today who love you. You are special because you have skills and you have opportunities to make a difference in the world. I want each of you to make the most of your skills and your opportunities.
You may call me an idealist. The mission and values of our college mean a lot to me. I want you to leave here knowing how important values and virtues will be throughout your life.
These sound like old-fashioned ideas, especially coming from the leader of a college that embraces new and emerging technologies. I believe, with all my heart, that progress is built on a foundation of basic principles that sustain us through the generations.
We may avoid conversations about steadfast values and virtues because we fear being seen as hypocrites if we fail to live up to such ideals or because we don't want to risk offending anyone whose culture or traditions differ from our own.
But, in the end, nothing should stand in the way of communicating common values and virtues that strengthen our world.
In every culture, every tradition, there is a place for honesty, integrity, compassion, responsibility to help those who cannot help themselves and obligation to leave the world as good (or better) than we found it.
Rather than limiting our lives, values and virtues provide opportunities for each of us to make a profound difference.
When we are able to connect what we know up here (in our head) and what we know in here (in our heart) with what we do with these (our hands), we find true meaning and purpose in our lives.
I hope your Penn College education will help you to connect the knowledge in your head and the skills of your hands with the desires of your heart.
We all search for meaning.
Whether we choose a career as a designer, a builder, a product maker, a caregiver, an operator, a service provider, a manager or an educator, each of us wants to serve a purpose.
Understanding that our lives have value and committing our talents to making the world a better place are ways we can begin to live virtuous lives.
Each time you choose to do the right thing instead of taking the easy way out, you choose virtue.
When you patiently persist in pursuing noble goals through good times and bad, you choose virtue.
If you want to do more than just survive in this world, if you want to thrive and to be part of a thriving community, then let every action you take be a virtuous act.
Avoid the traits that are opposite of virtue – traits such as arrogance, indulgence, complacency and greed.
In every culture, every tradition, there is a difference between virtue and selfish living. Our communities need us to be selfLESS, to be humble servants even in – especially in – our success. It is our civil responsibility to live and work in ways that support not only our individual interests but also the interests of our community.
As college graduates, you will be leaders in your workplaces and your communities. The ways that you express your values, through your words and your actions, will impact the lives of others. Others will follow your examples in leading virtuous lives.
The great philosopher Socrates said, "The greatest way to live with honor in this world is to be what we pretend to be.
Pretending is not enough.
Intending to do the right thing – later – is not enough.
We have seen how even the mighty can fall when they fail to do what's right, when they fail to be who they pretended to be.
Who will you be?
Your college years have helped you to define the kind of person you want to become. But the work does not end when you earn your degree. The work is just beginning.
How has this experience of college changed you? How will you use your experience to change the world?
Throughout your life, you will make important life-changing decisions. You will transition from one place – one purpose – to another.
Jobs will change. You will move to new places and meet new people. You will start families and watch your children grow. One day, you will even plan for your retirement.
In all of your decisions and all of your transitions, the same questions will rise again:
- Who are you?
- What kind of person do you want to be?
Your values and virtues will follow you throughout the years of your lives.
Be steadfast in your commitments. Be resilient as you face challenges and changes in your life. Be ready to give your time and your talent to support something greater than yourself. Be of value to others and be a shining example of a virtuous life.
In his book, "The Way of the Peaceful Warrior," author Dan Millman writes: "Use whatever knowledge you have but see its limitations. Knowledge alone does not suffice; it has no heart. No amount of knowledge will nourish or sustain your spirit; it can never bring you ultimate happiness or peace. Life requires more than knowledge; it requires intense feeling and constant energy. Life demands right action if knowledge is to come alive."
I urge you to greet your life with energy and enthusiasm and to employ your knowledge, your values and your virtue in creating the life you most desire.
Today, you become part of a proud tradition as you join our Penn College alumni association.
For nearly 100 years, our institution has been changing lives and impacting communities. Please stay in touch with us as you make your mark on the world. And come back often to share your gifts and talents with us and with future Penn College students.
Now it really is time. I can't hold onto the moment any longer.
Class of 2012, you are now part of the valued and virtuous history of Pennsylvania College of Technology.

Imagine this — the New England Patriots breaking a rule.
The NFL Players Association has filed a complaint against the Patriots on behalf of Malcolm Butler, who was not allowed by coach Bill Belichick to participate in on-field activities for a week after missing a voluntary session on May 26, when his flight to camp was reportedly canceled.
The union filed the complaint without the consent of the second-year cornerback, who sealed the Patriots' latest Super Bowl victory with an interception of Russell Wilson in the game's final minute.
According to ESPN, the union cited a passage in the collective bargaining agreement, stating an absence from a voluntary activity cannot result in "adverse consequences affecting his working conditions."
Butler was involved in team meetings and strength workouts, but was not allowed to participate in practice from May 28 through June 5 because of his tardiness.
The NFLPA requested that the Patriots send them their video of the practices to determine player participation, asking it all be provided by July 1.

Census count is 'an act of rebellion'
Joaqlin Estus
Indian Country Today
It's the dead of winter in Alaska as the US Census Bureau kicks off the 2020 census in remote village Tuesday. The census is taken every ten years to decide the number of congressional representatives for each state. Census numbers are used to set federal funding levels for everything from housing, bridges and roads to health, and school lunches. They also figure into state legislative district boundaries.
The national head count begins in Toksook Bay, a village of 661 people on the western edge of Alaska. That's almost three months earlier than in the rest of the country.
Census bureau director Steven Dillingham told the press in Anchorage on Friday the early start is to get Alaskans counted while the frozen ground provides easier access to communities. He said it also helps get people counted before spring draws them away from home for food gathering and warm-weather jobs.
(Related: Alaska census will begin with grandma, dance, food as 'a special moment')
Recruitment for census workers in Alaska is going well according to Tim Olson, the census bureau's social director of field operations. For Alaska, "We need approximately 9,000 applicants," said Olson. "As of January 13th we've got 8,316 applicants, which is really good. And we don't really need to have the 9,000 in hand until March 3rd." Dillingham said the bureau also has specialists on board to continue building partnerships with Native and other organizations.
Natalie Landreth, a senior attorney with the Native American Rights Fund, said even though front-line workers are doing their best, the census won't get an accurate count in Alaska.
"I want to tell every American Indian and Alaska Native to be counted as an act of rebellion because this census is designed not to count you," said Landreth. "It is designed for you to not have [congressional] districts. It is designed for you to not have federal monies," said Landreth. "Make yourself heard because I don't think they want to hear from you."
The bureau "had what our Senate delegation told us was more than sufficient funding for the census," said Landreth. "I said, 'if that's the case, how come zero dollars are being spent on language assistance in Alaska with the highest percentage of Native language speakers per capita in the United States?' And I never got an answer to that ... the only answer is, 'Well, either do it yourself or they're just not going to be counted.'"
"I think a lot of these are political and budgetary decisions at the highest level," said Landreth. Tribes shared concerns at tribal consultations but Landreth said the few that were held occurred late in the process, after funding decisions had been made.
James Tucker is pro bono voting rights counsel to the Native American Rights Fund, and vice chair of the Census Bureau's National Advisory Committee on Racial, Ethnic, and Other Populations.
Tucker said Native Americans are the most undercounted racial group in the country. In the 2010 census American Indians on reservations were undercounted by 4.9 percent, more than twice the rate as the next largest undercounted group, African Americans, at 2.1 percent. Estimates show Alaska Natives were undercounted by 8 percent. Those undercounts, said Tucker, among other issues, affect whether candidates who support tribal sovereignty and understand Native issues get elected.
Carol Gore, Alutiiq, is a former member of the national committee. Speaking to Alaska Native tribal leaders in October 2019, she said, "To put that [undercount] into context, Alaska receives approximately $3.2 billion in federal funding every single year." She said the eight percent undercount in 2010 meant the loss of more tens of millions of dollars to Alaska every year for ten years.
Landreth said there is broad consensus about language support from the national committee on race and ethnicity, the Alaska Federation of Natives, a coalition of non-profit and others. The message is: "'You're not doing enough to count us. Why isn't there any outreach? Why is everything on the Internet? Why is there no language assistance?'"
Landreth said that foundations have helped pick up the slack "because otherwise the social injustice is enormous and it's intolerable."
Landreth said donations number in the millions of dollars. Some of that money is going to support language translations.

Veri di Suvero is director of the Alaska Public Interest Research Group, which has translated census materials into four major Native languages and some additional dialects. Di Suvero said language barriers compound issues in communities that already feel the census is not for them.
"But by having materials translated into their languages, it means that there is more connection and understanding of why the census is important and also, what this will do for the community," said Suvero. She said the research group has also created records on how to get accurate, understandable translations to use for future censuses.
Gabe Layman is chairman of the Alaska Census Working Group, a coalition formed a few years ago by the statewide nonprofit Foraker Group. He said the working group includes dozens of nonprofit, governmental and tribal entities, and private companies.
"Why does Alaska Airlines care? Well, guess what, Alaska Airlines and other private sector businesses use census data to determine whether to make key business investments in certain areas," said Layman. He said demographics affect planning, for instance, for the creation and routes of flights.
In fact, Layman said, "There is no person, there is no organization that is untouched by the census." For instance, because federal funding is often allocated at the statewide level, an undercount in rural Alaska affects urban areas too. "And we're not talking about impacts that last for a year or two years. The impacts are felt for a decade," said Layman.
However, Tucker noted, "With Indian Country, I don't think there's any other population that has so many different, hard-to-count characteristics layered on top of one another." He listed hurdles such as geographic isolation and disconnection, cultural differences, and language barriers. "We have one of the youngest populations. We have housing instability, high poverty, high unemployment, lack of transportation, and lack of access to Wi-Fi, which is another huge thing we're talking about."
More than ever, the census bureau is using the Internet to reach people. But nearly half of Native Americans lack access to high-speed Internet.
Rural households often lack street addresses. But because postal boxes may not represent single households, the census bureau doesn't mail forms to post office boxes. Yet, field tests on the Colville Indian and Standing Rock Sioux reservations to find ways to handle nontraditional mailing addresses were cancelled due to budget issues. Tucker said that research would have yielded remedies to a range of issues.
Distrust is another obstacle. Given that the history of Native Americans is riddled with injustice, the unlawful taking of resources, and broken promises, it comes as no surprise that Natives are suspicious of the federal government and fear census data may be used against them.
But Layman said, "If Census Bureau workers disclose the information that they collect, they face personal criminal liability" including prison time, a felony record, and fines. "So people need to understand… it is safe to give those responses to a census worker, and that information can't be used against you," said Layman.
Layman said the working group has raised money to send mailers to go to all of Alaska's 88,000 post office boxes, and to create public service announcements, social media content, and posters.
"We want to make sure that every single Alaskan understands that the census is easy to complete, that it is entirely safe and confidential, and that it is critical for our communities," said Layman. The group also gives out mini-grants to community organizations so they can tailor outreach to specific hard-to-count groups, such as homeless teens.
Nicole Borromeo, Athabascan, is vice president and general counsel at the Alaska Federation of Natives and a new member of national advisory committee on race and ethnicity. As much as other organizations are partnering with the census bureau, she said, "Had they [the bureau] reached out to Native regional and other organizations earlier, we probably could have done more."

Not surprisingly, after a 1/2 hour long vote in the Senate, the motion to proceed on considering the health care bill has resulted in a 50-50 tie - after Senators Ron Johnson and John McCain voted last to provide the 50 votes. The roll call has just finished (all Democrats held their vote for the roll call) and it appears a certainty that Vice President Pence will shortly vote to break the tie in favor of proceeding.
Debate will then begin on a large variety of possible bills, the only one of which that appears likely to proceed would be a "skinny" repeal bill of Obamacare, dropping the provisions that have been deemed impossible under reconciliation.
Senators Murkowski and Collins were the only no votes among the Republicans.
Update -
Vice President Pence has voted to break the tie 51-50, and John McCain is currently making a speech on the function of the Senate.

Talk to a few married couples and their stories will all be completely different.
Some will have dated for years and then planned an extravagant wedding months in advance, whereas others will have known each other for just a couple of months and decided to get married one night on a whim.
The perfect time to get married is…
…when you feel it's right.
Think about the act of getting married in general. Is there a certain formula to know when you love your partner enough to make the leap? No, there really isn't.
Love is unique in that we understand almost nothing about it. It can't be measured quantitatively, and anyone who tries to misses out on the true, captivating emotion of it.
Marriage can be spontaneous, or it can be calculated and thought out with extreme detail. It's all about what type of person you are. Don't let others in your life dictate when you should pop – or answer – the question. Just do what feels right.
The date is set: big or small?
When trying to determine how big your wedding will be, it's important to remember who the wedding is for. The wedding isn't for your family, it's not for your friends; it's for you and your spouse.
If you want it to be a day that's permanently engrained in the memories of your guests, then a big wedding might be right for you. Grandiose food, decorations, and entertainment can match the feeling that you and your spouse have when thinking about marriage.
Maria & Nick are a great example of a real wedding couple who went big. Their wedding at St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church had a whopping 350 guests. Read more at Wedding Guide Chicago.
Some people aren't into big events. In fact, for some people, the thought of talking to distant acquaintances on their big day isn't appealing in the slightest.
Jan & Claude went this route. Their wedding was classy and memorable, but it only had 20 guests – for every 17 people at Maria & Nick's, there was only one at Jan & Claude's. It took place in a small garden with a tight-knit group of people who had known both of them for years. Read more about their wedding or other Chicago wedding couples at our blog.
Different weddings for different types of people. Who would've thought?
Really, don't sweat it
There's no right or wrong answer to when or how you should get married. The day is about you, and you should do whatever makes you the happiest.
Some couples choose massive, expensive weddings with hundreds of people. Some go the opposite route – in fact, we've seen plenty of couples who decided one day to get a marriage certificate and skip the wedding entirely.
Remember – no matter what you do, you're getting married! The day will be magical no matter what happens. We invite you to read more about the different types of weddings each couple below experienced by taking a peek at our wedding website now.

What makes a good English literature essay? To get an answer, first of all, you have to find out what is the English Literature essay. It is a writing paper that carefully examines and sometimes evaluates the work aspect of literature or work of literature. To write successful English literature essay, you need to break the subject in various components. You need to remember while writing the English Literature essay. To learn about them, read this article carefully. At the end of this article you will also find the answer to a good English Literature essay.
It is important that you give a title to your English Literature essay. The title should be descriptive, which reflects your thoughts on the work of literature. The use of the same title of literature in its English literature essay is unacceptable to the readers. The title should be suitable for paper based on this topic.
For example,
Robert Browning Duke: A Portrait of a Sinister Man
A & P as state of mind
Theme in 'The Secret Lion': Conflict of Adolescence.
Who are your viewers? Of course, your teacher or tester. But remember, professors should not be your priority. You are also writing for the students who are in your class. They have the same assigned job. You have to think about how you are different from the opinions of others. It is your role to explain and interpret what is in the literature work in relation to the central thought. But you should not, in any way, 'repel' the work of literature.
When you refer to the short story, the poem or the text of the game, you are only reminding or informing your audience who are already present or they already know. Your theory should be emphasized by analyzing different approaches to the conclusions. Make sure that you do not present conspiracy summaries as your audience who want to see a different perspective on some literary works, already know the conspiracy summary.
Thesis Statement: It should be a restricted, accurate and word declared sentence which tells the purpose of writing your essay. Here are some thesis statements examples that work well for 500-750 words English Literature essay.
Example 1: The poem of Gwendolyn Brooks in 1960 shows the unique use of ballad's traditional poetry form to describe the subject of unconventional poetry of racial intolerance.
Example 2: The fate of the main characters in Antigun teaches the danger of excessive pride
Example 3: Dylan Thomas' poem 'Fern Hill' reveals the ambiguity of fictional humans.
A. Introduction
Like any other essay introduction, the introduction of English literary essay should seize the reader's meditation
Use quotes, use a brief anecdote to forward your readers to a provocative question and read
Include background information (in short) to set the view of your English Literature essay
Clear your readers what situation you are taking.
If you successfully include these above elements in your English Literature essay writing, then you will be able to write a good quality English Literature dissertation introduction.
In this section, you present at least three paragraphs to stream your content correctly. Here are the elements that any student should add to his English Literature essay.
An explanation of your thoughts and evidence from the text that supports your thoughts
Textual evidence as paraphrasing, specific details and direct quote
Each body article should have a subject sentence (preferably in the first sentence of the paragraph).
The closing paragraph provides a sense of perfection to your English literature essay and informs your readers that they have come to the end of the paper. Here are the important elements that make a good English literature essay conclusion:
Reinstate the thesis statement in other words
Summary of your key points
Relevant comments about literary work that you are analyzing
Remember, this is not the place where you introduce new
When you write an English literary essay, you essentially present a logic to prove your points. You argue that your perspective, interpretation, assessment decision or important assessment is valid.
The essay on English literature should be a specific, detailed thesis statement that describes your perspective. In terms of presenting perspective, any good thesis statement should be debatable.
Here are some bad examples of the thesis statement of the English Literature essay. To understand them, see them how you should not approach your subject.
Shakespeare's Hamlet is a play about a young man who wants to take revenge. '
The above thesis statement is a summary of this topic. It is hardly debatable.
A better thesis would be:
'Hamlet feels internal conflict because he loves his mother.'
This thesis is debatable and controversial. You should create essay logic in this way:
How does Hamlet love his mother?
Why does she love her?
What are the effects for readers in this play?
Literary essay is about analyzing a prose or poem, identifying a particular topic and showing how the author advises the subject through this approach, to which the story is told.

Textual evidence should be used judiciously and only when it is directly showing the relationship with your English Literature essay. Here you will learn the correct and effective use of text evidence. Following these suggestions will help you to create a successful English literature essay.
Paraphrasing is the way to keep someone's words in his own language. A typical example of paragraphing in the English Literature essay writing is given here:
Originally from 'The Secret Lion': 'I was in twelve and junior high and something happened that we did not have a name, but still it was like a lion, and roaring, roaring, that to do the greatest things . '
After paraphrasinging: At the beginning of the story, the storyteller described that when his life changed in an important way at the age of twelve, he and his friends could not give it name or could not name it.
Accurate descriptions always support the development of the central idea of your English literature essay. See the list of some precise details that can be used in the development paragraph from the paper on John Updike's short story, 'A & P'
Usual traffic
Fluorescent lights
Checkerboard green-and-cream rubber-tile floor
Electric eye
Shoppers like 'sheep', 'house slaves' and 'pigs'
Neatly stacked food
A relevant use of the quoted material can make your literature clear and more convincing in the English literature essay writing. But it is also very important that you tell your readers why some quotes are important for writing your English literature essay.
When you are referring to prose in your English Literature essay, make sure that you give page numbers while presenting quote.
When you cite poem lines in your English Literature essay writing, make sure you give the line number of poetry lines when necessary.

Nissan says it has developed a new way to use robots to make replacement parts for vintage vehicles that could make the restoration of those vehicles an easier process. The company plans to commercialize the proprietary technique known as dual-sided dieless forming.
"The technique involves two synchronized robots working from opposite sides of a steel sheet, using diamond-coated tools to gradually shape the steel," the company said in its announcement.
"Thanks to its flexible production, short lead times and minimal upfront costs, the new technique could make it commercially viable to produce and sell a wide variety of after-service and replacement parts in small volumes for cars that Nissan no longer makes.
"This was previously not possible due to the high upfront costs and long lead times to develop and make dies for stamped parts.
Nissan said getting two robots to operate synchronously while ensuring consistent quality had been a complex obstacle and noted, "Existing techniques have primarily relied on single-sided forming, which limits the complexity of shapes that can be created."
However, by placing its robots and tools on opposite sides of a steel sheet, Nissan's Production Engineering Research and Development Division has developed a way to use them to create detailed shapes.
The process, the company said, involved three major breakthroughs:
- The development of advanced programs capable of controlling both robots with a high degree of dimensional accuracy, enabling the formation of detailed convex and concave shapes.
- The application of a mirrored diamond coating to tools, reducing friction while eliminating the need for lubrication. This has numerous benefits, including consistency of surface quality and low-cost, environmentally friendly operation.
- The generation of optimized pathfinding logic for robots, drawing on the ample expertise and press-forming simulation techniques ordinarily used by Nissan's production engineering teams. This enabled Nissan to achieve high quality results early in the development process.
The company did not announce a timetable for making such parts available.

What makes a house a home?
Our 11th Annual Detroit Home Design Awards issue presents winning designs created by professionals who most definitely can answer that question. They've all recently fulfilled the dreams of many who wished to make their house a home, whether the homeowners wanted open, relaxing gathering spaces for weekend visitors at the lake or an intimate dining room where they could share home-cooked meals with friends and family.
All Through the House: A Few Definitions of Home
Nostalgic Nuances: The first-place winner in Millwork features a lower-level kitchen designed by Caden Design Group, who shared with Detroit Home that the owners have a passion for antique Coca-Cola trays. Enter a custom-made refrigerator that emulates an old-fashioned icebox with deep blue panels, light distressing, and those chunky hinges and latches of days gone by. Cool!
Your Home is Your Castle: DesRosiers Architects fashioned an awesome entranceway into its winning design in Decorative Glass and Mirror. As one approaches the front door, a bridge of clear glass spans a large koi pond that evokes the feel of a medieval castle. Splashy!
Collection Cache: A homeowner in the Utility/Storage/Garage category needed a cavernous area to store a treasured car collection. Top winners AZD Architects, with R J Laney Design, came up with the perfect solution — a huge car space on the lower level designed to be visible through the main-level office. Nifty!
Family Central: The family who craved a great spot for cooking in the first-place Kitchen Between 201 and 500 Square Feet category also wanted the space to be handy for paying bills, catching up on the day's events, toasting the evening, and more. Scavolini Store Detroit (with Vieyra Arquitectos) worked their magic and more. Smart!
A Working Design: Kathleen McGovern Studio of Interior Design created a dining room in an apartment (first place, Contemporary Dining Room) that's multifunctional for a couple whose goal was to have a room that could accommodate business meetings, cocktail parties, and entertaining with a huge, unconventional dining table that doesn't block their view of the Detroit River. Imaginative!
Kid Heaven: When Rariden Schumacher Mio & Co., along with Arik Green Design, was asked to create a space for lots of kids, the client wasn't kidding! The homeowners' dream was to host many families for weekends of fun on the shores of Lake Michigan. The solution? Check out the first-place winner in the Children's Room category — a "dorm" that sleeps 12 kids in bunks and trundles, and a bathroom that's reminiscent of going to camp (but way better). Sick!
Dinner In: Gorman's Interior Design came through in a tasteful way when the client asked for a round dining room and table where each guest would feel as though they're the center of attention. Winning first place in the Traditional Dining Room category (and a spot on the cover of this issue), the space is simple and allows those in the room to shine. Sophisticated!
Fine Feathered Friends, Too: Note the first-place winner in Residential Landscape Between One-Half and One Acre. The homeowners apparently like to spend almost as much time outdoors as in. They now have everything they need (including the kitchen sink, almost!), outdoors. They've even created a nice home for winged beauties in a butterfly and hummingbird-friendly garden. Sweet!
I hope you enjoy these and all of the other examples of superlative design. Congratulations to our 2015 winners!

The following is taken from the last newsletter (subscribers received a fuller version of this a month ago, you can subscribe at the bottom of the page and unsubscribe at any time in a few seconds):
I have a new book coming out on 17th May in the UK (and in the summer in the US.)
Here is the cover, with a few more details here.
I'm just back from 9 days research up north, naturally navigating the foothills of the Cairngorms and tracking a variety of animals – including pine martens, which was a first for me.
I was living in a very nice modern bothy with a log burner, but no electricity, running water, gas etc. Melting snow for drinking water, tea and cooking was part of a routine of joyful simplicity. Note the improvised fridge/freezer hanging from the hook near the top left. This was meant to be for a shower bag, but there was no shower bag. My one shower came from heating a rusting bucket full of icy river water over a fire for an hour. Very nice it was too, if a little ruddy.
A foot and a half of snow fell in a couple of days whilst I was up there, which made direction-finding and tracking very easy and covering distance difficult – but all satisfying.
I took over 400 photos during my time there, here are a selection to test your wits against. They get progressively more difficult. Clues below and Answers at the very bottom.
1. Roughly what direction are we looking in this picture?
2. What strange creature passed this way?
3. Look at the picture below. Why is there snow and ice on only one part of the loch?
4. Whilst navigating across a forest, I spooked an animal which fled. Which animal?
5. Look at the picture below and work out: what direction did the snow blow in from?
6. Use your answer above, to work out the direction we are looking in the picture below.
7. Study the first picture below.
If you look closely, you'll notice a pair of tracks in the snow near the top right of the picture above.
a) Who or what created these tracks?
b) Was it travelling towards us, away from us or both, and why?
QUIZ CLUES (some slightly cryptic):
1. It's a solar panel.
2. A pair of creatures, with two real legs each.
3. Notice how the colour of the water changes. Why?
4. The dark space, about the size of my boot, has been formed.
5. Look for evidence of long term wind trends (windswept trees, mound and dip, flagging, lone stragglers. Check index of Walker's Guide / Lost Art if those terms are unfamiliar). Then refer to strips on trees.
6. See Newsletter.
7. See Newsletter.
Answers at bottom.
I've created a dedicated area of the website for water readers and there are some interesting developments there. I will be continually adding examples to the bottom. Please do send in your own examples of water clues and signs.
To toast this new section of the website, here is another clue question:
8. What does the pattern of sand ripples below indicate? Answer at the bottom.
You can always catch up on the latest news and blog posts via the perfectly titled, Latest News page, including The Bear Whisperer.
And I post different things on Twitter and Instagram.
Happy Navigating,
1. We are looking close to west.
Solar panels will normally be aligned to face close to south – even when they are covered in snow and next to useless in the Scottish midwinter.
2. A pair of skiers passed, the second planting their pole close to the first.
3. The dark patches of water show us where the wind is touching the surface and generating ripples – this delays ice forming. Nearest to us the water is in a 'wind shadow', created by the high ground the picture is taken from. This still water freezes more quickly and the ice allows snow to settle.
4. A mountain hare. The hares rest in depressions in the ground known as 'forms', but bound away when disturbed by inconsiderate natural navigators.
5. The snow came in from the southwest. The fallen tree 'mound and dip', flagging, lone stragglers and many other clues show that SW is to the right of the picture. The strips on the trees is also on that side of the tree, indicating that is where the snow blew in from.
6. We are looking close to northwest. The snow on the twigs has blown in from the left of the picture. From the question before we know that direction is SW; if SW is to your left, you must be looking NW.
a) We are looking at otter tracks.
b) This otter was heading away from us, both times.
The patterns in the water show us that the river is flowing towards us – we are looking upstream.
Otters are clever and economical; they will swim with the flow of the water downstream, but take shortcuts over land where possible to avoid swimming round bends against fast water. These tracks are otter upstream shortcuts.
These are 'flat-topped' sand ripples, formed when water flows quickly one way and then the other. They are a sign of tidal waters.

When you are building your house or just doing some redecoration, painting is part of the important tasks that have to be completed to make the project successful. Trust is very important when you are looking for a painter for your house. For this reason, a commercial painter may be the right choice because he or she has the right experience and expertise. The question on how to get a painter worth your money always arises. Well, there are many ways to go about the search. These shall be discussed below, but it is always important to ensure that you get a reliable person to do the job for you.

Talking to your neighbors, friends or colleagues could make the search easier. Kate residential and commercial painting services fit the criteria.

Never engage the serves of a painting company without asking for a few references and quotes. This should always be the initial step before signing any contract. It is important to get a separate price list and plan from the painter. A good painter should also be able to give you a rough estimate of the costs. These little things speak a lot about the professionalism and work ethic of the company and people who will be working on your house.
If you get a good painter, you will have some peace of mind which is a win for you. You will not have to worry about the job not getting finished on time or overspending on the project. The fact that painting is a job that anyone can do doesn't mean that they can do it well. A good painter will use his experience and expertise to ensure that the painting is up to your standards. Kate painting services offer not only the experienced personnel to work on your project but also the right experience. They understand that having the right people for the job and other necessary resource is important for the satisfaction of the customers.

Painter services at http://paulmartinezjrpainting.com/painting-services/commercial/ that can give you an estimate of the time it will take to get the job done are the best.

Weekly Update:
Each week, we look at the Oregon Reopening Metrics Dashboard to determine if/when we can return to on-site instruction in a Hybrid model. State data for Oregon and Lane County has been updated based on the last 14-day period (2/07-2/20). The data link for Lane County is attached below this message. Based on this data; The absolute case count is 133* cases; The positivity rate is 2.1%. This is a decrease in cases over the previous two week period. Lane county at this time falls in the On-Site and Hybrid Transition Model (Yellow zone). To be in the Green Zone, the 2 week look back of case counts per 100,000 needs to be 50 or less.
* LCPH reports there may be a glitch in the numbers for this week due to possible errors on their end. This number may change when those errors are resolved.
What does this mean?
This continues to be very good news for Lane County and our schools!
Under the new metrics here, we are able to continue to add more students for Limited In Person Instruction (LIPI), AND begin implementing Hybrid Learning. Those who chose to continue with online learning may do so.
For more information on case counts or test positivity, please go to: https://www.wesd.org/Page/1282

Hi XG Community!
We've released Sophos Firewall Manager SFM 17.1 MR5. Initially, the firmware will be available by manual download from the Licensing Portal. We will gradually release the firmware via auto-update to customers.
This MR is solely to allow limited support for XG v18 MR3 firmware. Please note that v18 support in SFM is very limited, and most SFM features are not supported. Please migrate to Sophos Central to fully group manage firewalls running v18 firmware.
Updates Included
We have SFM 17.1.5 MR5 running, and 19 XG devices ( a mix of 105/106/115/230 and 330), all devices with SFOS18.01 least.
Now, I have few queries with regard to SFM:
1. Do we need to migrate to Sophos Central ?
2. What about the SFM License, would this be used in Sophos Central?
Also, 3. Do we need some partner to use Sophos Central or we can do it on our own?
I would highly recommend to move to Sophos Central. Currently there are not many migration tools to get the system configuration into Central (there are things to come).
So you have to configure the Group config in Central.
Central Management is for free.
Central Admin is for the customer. The partner can manage the Central Admin via Central Partner Dashboard. So there is a tool to manage the customer (if allowed by the customer).
Hi Ajay, yes, you'll need to move to SFM at some point. Given you're using v18, you'll get an immediate improvement in capabilities in v18. As for licensing, Central does not require a license for firewall management, so no license transfer is needed.

Carlsbad Family Beach Photographer Sweet little Ana came all the way to Carlsbad from Michigan. Not only to have beach photographs taken, but for a trip of a lifetime! About a year ago Ana was hit by a car and life-flighted to the nearest hospital. Ana suffered from traumatic brain injury among other complications. All things considered, Ana made a full recovery. Her family came to Carlsbad to celebrate Ana and her accomplishments. The love felt for sweet little Ana during her shoot was something I will never forget. The moments were so tender and you could tell mom was soaking in every moment. Truly grateful for her daughter's recovery and a second chance, it was gentle reminder how fragile life really is. Here is a family who will never take anything for granted again. The Hill family was on the most ambitious week of California sightseeing that you can imagine- Los Angeles, Carlsbad, Disneyland, Universal Studios, and San Francisco. I was tired just hearing about their itinerary. To top it off, mom started nursing school the very next day she returned from vacation. Thank you so much for visiting Carlsbad and I hope your family loves the beach photography. I loved meeting your wonderful little family! ... Read More about Carlsbad Family Beach Photographer | Ana
Sage Creek High School Senior Portraits | Ethan
Sage Creek High School senior portraits of Ethan as he is literally on his way out the door to college. It is never to early or late to plan your high school senior portraits. Ethan had the best attitude as we ventured though Carlsbad to take his photographs at multiple locations. Taking time to capture classic photos as well images that showcase who you really are is important to me as a mother. Choices are important. We joked a lot as he educated me on what it is like to have a high school student. My daughter just started high school yesterday. I never thought this day would come just like Ethan's mom probably thought the day would never come for high school graduation. I enjoyed getting to know you Ethan! You will do great things in the world and I have no doubt about that. All photographs were taken by Renee Hindman in Carlsbad, CA. She is currently booking senior sessions for the 2018 and 2019 school year. It is never too late or too early to preserve your memories forever. ...

San Diego Baby Photography | Aliyah
San Diego baby photography of sweet baby Aliyah. Her mom and I went to high school together and it has been a joy having her back in my life. I have such fond high school memories of Janelle and her laugh is still the same! Janelle was the whole reason I even tried out to be the high school mascot! Yes, I was the Valencia Tiger my senior year. An experience I am still grateful for. Thank you Janelle! One of my favorite ages to photograph a baby is 6 to 9 months old. At this age babies are sitting up and not moving. They are curious and content making wonderful angles to photograph. As mother you want to soak up every move and look your baby makes. I love to photograph all the "in between" moments as baby is adventuring outdoors. In return baby photography becomes all those sweet and tender moments that you witness at all hours of the day and night. Their sweet faces are captured and stand still, forever! As my children grow older I find myself looking back at the stages of their lives and I am thankful that I have these images, books and photographs on my wall. Because let's be honest teens are no joke and I would take the toddler and baby drama any day. I am especially thankful for the baby photography that I have of my ...

Carlsbad family photographer | Today
I met up with the Davidson family in one of my favorite fields to capture their lives just as they are today... Rylee is a twelve year old sweet as pie gal who loves sports. My daughter plays softball with Rylee and she is just one of those kids you want your kids around. Good. I met sweet Levi while Mom was pregnant at the ball fields. Our families have spent many hours in the stands together. To have a cute baby to hold and smile with during those early morning, long days of softball makes the softball life even better. He's a happy little dude with an infectious smile. You just want to snuggle him and smile. About a month ago Angela was folding laundry on a Saturday when she started to have seizures. The next day she found out she had brain cancer. About four days later she was in brain surgery to remove a large tumor. When I heard of the news, I knew I wanted to help. I messaged Angela and explained that I am a terrible cook and her family would not appreciate a meal that I make (Well, maybe the kids. I make a mean quesadilla). I wanted to take these portraits of her family in Carlsbad. These images were taken two weeks after surgery and I am just blown away at how well Angela is doing. She has a fantastic attitude and ...

What are you waiting for? | San Diego Child photographer
My girls will always be young and playful in my mind. I seem to have cataloged them in my brain at a certain age because sometimes I have a difficult time with them getting older. These were taken for a college course I took last year to learn new software. I was pushed to get outside and photograph for fun. Just because I am a San Diego Child photographer, that does not mean I am ALWAYs taking photos of my girls. I try to take my "real camera" out for at least each child's sport one time per season, vacations, one ski day, etc. I can sometimes lag on taking traditional portraits or creative ones as they can be time consuming and a lot of work. And just because mom is a child portrait photographer in San Diego does not mean I am going to get cooperation. I have had these outfits for over a year before I actually executed. And you know what? EVERY time I am done, I think to myself. "Why did I wait so long?" Children truly grow and change so fast. So I ask you this, are you waiting too long to get portraits of your children and family? I meet a lot of people that tell me they love my work and "one day" they are going to hire me. I encourage you not to wait so long. No one has ever said to me, "I wish I never took pictures of my ...

Simpson Family | San Diego Family Beach Photographer
Every year the Simpson family and I team up to take their annual family photos in a San Diego or surrounding location. We have done some pretty fun and creative shoots. We have rented a vintage trailer, truck, amusement parks, fields and now the beach! We have exhausted so many San Diego photographer locations, we traveled north a bit to find this little gem. It was fun to be the Simpson's San Diego family beach photographer. I love how the Simpson family takes careful consideration of clothing to match the surrounding location. It is such an important detail that is often overlooked. I have an arsenal of websites and clothing store recommendations that I am happy to share with my clients. I also have racks of designer clothing in my garage that I am happy to share as well. Each family photo shoot results in the most beautiful of Christmas cards, prints for their home and a coffee table album. This family now has a library of albums in their family room. Most people want their digital files so they can print themselves. But how many people actually do this? All images were taken by San Diego Beach photographer, Renee Hindman ...
