Modern artwork represents an evolving set of concepts among a number of painters, sculptors, writers, and performers who – each individually and collectively – sought new approaches to artwork making. This was achieved largely with his portray from 1849-1850, Burial at Ornans, which scandalized the French art world by portraying the funeral of a standard man from a peasant village. There is a galaxy of contemporary artists who performed an necessary position in revitalizing the modern Indian artwork scene. Cubism, Dadaism, Surrealism, Pop Art, Expressionism and Impressionism are just some of the multitude of artwork movements beginning within the twentieth century. Abstract painting and sculpture continued to dominate, as true-to-life representational artwork remained very retro. The Museum of Modern Art collects work made after 1880, when the atmosphere was ripe for avant-garde artists to take their work in new, unexpected, and trendy " directions. They won't embrace your typical large bouquets of roses or carnations, however as a substitute will use numerous flowers, stems and other foliage pieces to create works of art.
It is our obligation to point out the artists tackling the idea of freedom within the Arab world in the present day. Displaying art painting on the walls of your bed room or lounge will be a major step to boost the room options or utterly translate the tone of the room.
All the works featured on Saatchi Art are contemporary, as they have been created by some of the most gifted rising artists working in the present day. They believed in immortality and worshipped many deities, a truth distilled from the work adorning the walls of the good Pyramids.
Simon Kelly has been the curator and head of the department of modern and contemporary artwork on the Saint Louis Art Museum since September, 2010. Amongst the trendy artwork creations based on war themes, the Vietnamese artwork speaks volumes of the warfare, its causes and effects on society, and the destruction that was brought in its fold. However, throughout the artwork world the time period designates artwork that was made during and after the publish-Pop artwork era of the 1960s. Art can be utilized to revamp an workplace or workplace – even a study in a house office.
I did not sleep that night – Mary Heilmann's paintings taking part in like a slide show by my head – every one a possible dessert. Unfortunately, the rich arts organizations that pay for reveals, catalogs, grants and stipends are more and more favoring lame, pretentious, and anti-artwork artwork.

"Following the adoption of the Tax Asset Protection Plan this past June,
The Tax Asset Protection Plan was adopted on
Under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the use of the company's net operating loss and other carryforwards would be limited in the event of an "ownership change," which is defined as a cumulative change of more than 50 percent during any three year period by stockholders owning 5 percent or more of the company's stock.
The Tax Asset Protection Plan is designed to discourage any person or group from becoming a 5 percent stockholder, thereby reducing the risk of such an ownership change. There is no guarantee, however, that the plan will prevent the company from experiencing an ownership change, and the company may pursue additional means of protecting this substantial asset.
Existing stockholders holding 4.99 percent or more of the company's outstanding shares of common stock are exempt from the provisions of the plan unless they make additional purchases.

Bellringer (Marcus Bell), a veteran producer, met the Swedish-American former "The Voice" contestant SWEEDiSH (Jennifer Newberry) in 2014, after her teary and painful dismissal from the hit NBC show. SWEEDiSH, who was singing on Swedish radio by age 6, is a lifelong performer who amidst a number of hardships, had found herself in a pattern of unhealthy relationships. Around the same time she connected with Bellringer, SWEEDiSH, with a newfound inner peace, met her husband Chris, who is conveniently a music video producer, and produced the cool and sensual video for "All That I Need" within just 48 hours of its production. SWEEDiSH believes she gets to heal in every song she sings, and "All That I Need" is a therapeutic, soulful celebration of love.
Featured on Power, the popular Starz crime drama produced by 50 Cent, featured a steamy sex scene to the tune of "All That I Need" by Bellringer and SWEEDiSH. An outpour of nearly 10,000 viewers stopped in their tracks, whipped out their phones, and eagerly searched for the song, which is now released and available on iTunes and Spotify. Meanwhile, the smooth single has created a serious buzz: Tunefind even called it the, "Top TV Song of the Week" due to the frenzy of listeners on the site who were furiously searching for the velvety track.

Schema File in Datastage
Schema files and partial Schemas:
You can also specify the meta data for a stage in a plain text file known as a schema file. This is not stored in the Repository but you could, for example, keep it in a document management or source code control system, or publish it on an intranet site.
Note: If you are using a schema file on an NLS system, the schema file needs to be in UTF-8 format. It is, however, easy to convert text files between two different maps with a WebSphere DataStage job. Such a job would read data from a text file using a Sequential File stage and specifying the appropriate character set on the NLS Map page. It would write the data to another file using a Sequential File stage, specifying the UTF-8 map on the NLS Map page.
Some parallel job stages allow you to use a partial schema. This means that you only need define column definitions for those columns that you are actually going to operate on.
Remember that you should turn runtime column propagation on if you intend to use schema files to define column meta data.
Complex data types
Parallel jobs support three complex data types: v Subrecords v Tagged subrecords v Vectors When referring to complex data in WebSphere DataStage column definitions, you can specify fully qualified column names, for example:
Subrecords :
A subrecord is a nested data structure. The column with type subrecord does not itself define any storage, but the columns it contains do. These columns can have any data type, and you can nest subrecords one within another. The LEVEL property is used to specify the structure of subrecords. The following diagram gives an example of a subrecord structure.
Parent (subrecord)
Child1 (string)
Child2 (string) LEVEL01
Child3 (string)
Child4 (string)
Grandchild1 (string)
Grandchild2 (time)
Grandchild3 (sfloat) LEVEL02
Tagged subrecord
This is a special type of subrecord structure, it comprises a number of columns of different types and the actual column is ONE of these, as indicated by the value of a tag at run time. The columns can be of any type except subrecord or tagged. The following diagram illustrates a tagged subrecord.
Parent (tagged)
Child1 (string)
Child2 (int8)
Child3 (raw)
Tag = Child1, so column has data type of string
A vector is a one dimensional array of any type except tagged. All the elements of a vector are of the same type, and are numbered from 0. The vector can be of fixed or variable length. For fixed length vectors the length is explicitly stated, for variable length ones a property defines a link field which gives the length at run time. The following diagram illustrates a vector of fixed length and one of variable length.

Re: Rockett - Abernathy questions
In reply to:
Re: Rockett - Abernathy questions
Shirley Goldfield 8/16/06
Ms Goldfield, with respect, I beg to inform you of a few facts.
First: to the best of my knowledge no one has yet been able to provide documentable evidence to substantiate a marriage in 1770 between Robert Abernathy and Ann Nance (Nantz).
Second: to the best of my knowledge no one has yet been able to provide documentable evidence to substantiate that the Mary Abernathy who married Richard Rocket was the daughter of a specific Robert Abernathy, only that her father was _a_ Robert Abernathy. Mary Abernathy has been listed in various sources as
1) dau of Robert and Sarah Nichols Abernethy, later of Kentucky, but dates wrong.
2) dau of Robert 4th and Sarah Abernathy, dates ok, but NOT mentioned in his will.
3) dau of Robert 3rd and Mary (Miles Harwell), but dates wrong.
4) she could also have been daughter of that either of two South Carolina lineages.
and last but not least:
5) she could have been a daughter of one of the newer Scots immigrants, of which an estimated average of 10,000 per year flooded into the colonies, especially the Carolinas.
I will grant you that the circumstantial evidence seems to support the possibility that she was a daughter of the 4th Robert, but if so, why was she (or her children) _not_ mentioned in his will?
Third: to the best of my knowledge, no one has yet been able to _prove_ (with documentary evidence) that the Christine who married Robert Abernathy (son of the first Robert of Charles City County VA) was a daughter of either one of her mother's husbands. The evidence (her mother's will) only proves that Christine was married to Robert, had male siblings surnamed Parham _and_ Tilman, and a married sister, whose father could also have been either of her mother's husbands. Christine's maiden name could have been Parham _or_ Tilman and we frankly do not know for sure which.
Sometimes one has to accept not knowing what is buried in the mists of time.

The much-awaited concert of Justin Bieber for his new album Purpose finally happened last night and fans from all over India came to Mumbai to watch him perform live. The concert was nothing less than a dream for all the Beliebers and despite the crazy heat, everyone enjoyed every bit of his 90-minute performance.
Coming in at about 8.15, Bieber started his concert with Where Are You and ended at about 10 pm with one of his most popular tracks, Sorry, covering everything from Baby to What Do You Mean and Coldwater in between. Yes, one can safely say that the concert was a hit. We're sure you already know that but amidst all of this were the minute details that you might have missed. So here, we thought of bringing to you grapevine about what happened at the concert.
Justin gave us a major hint of returning to India soon
From what was heard Bieber seemed to have had a great time and these were his words at the concert. "Tonight's turning out to be one of the best nights of my life, It was a great honor performing in India. I will definitely come back".
Some fans expected it to be better
While the concert lasted for almost two hours and Bieber sang almost all his popular numbers, the fans could get enough of him and they really expected more. Singer Armaan Malik showed disappointment in his tweets that the concert didn't last longer.
Bieber's lip-syncing highly disappointed many
The Canadian singer who performed for the first time in India let down many by not singing but actually lip syncing for a major duration of his performance. The guitar solo made up for it, though.
Sorry came in as a surprise performance
The concert shouldn't have ended without Sorry and it didn't. So Bieber may have said Namaste and exited the stage but he sure had no plans of disappointing his fans. He came back in no time and rocked the stage for the next few minutes with the Indian flag waving behind him.
B-town celebs also came in to catch a glimpse of the International Popstar
It wasn't just the teenagers but even our very own film stars like Alia Bhatt, Jaqueline Fernandes, Bipasha Basu, Karan Singh Grover, Arbaaz Khan and Malaika Arora attended the concert. Joining them were celebrities like Arjun Rampal and Sonali Bendre who accompanied their Belieber kids.
That's a lot of things to have missed. Did you attend the concert? Comment below and let us know.

Crew of crashed Pakistani chopper being held by Taliban
The seven-member crew of a Pakistani helicopter that crashed in a lawless region of Afghanistan is being held by Taliban fighters, officials said on Friday.world Updated: Aug 05, 2016 15:38 IST
The seven-member crew of a Pakistani helicopter that crashed in a lawless region of Afghanistan is being held by Taliban fighters, officials said on Friday.
Hamidullah Hamid, governor of Azra district in Afghanistan's Logar province, said all seven people aboard the helicopter were detained by the Taliban after Thursday's crash.
The government has "no control of the area" where the helicopters crashed and burst into flames, he said.
Pakistani military spokesman Lt Gen Asim Bajwa said the Russian-made helicopter was being flown to Russia via Uzbekistan for maintenance. The crew includes one Russian and at least two Pakistan Army officers.
Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said an "investigative team" is being sent to the area as it is not contactable by phone.
Taliban sources also confirmed all crew members of the helicopter, which belonged the government of Punjab province, were in their custody, The Express Tribune reported.
"All crew members, including a Russian national, are in the custody of the Taliban commanders in their controlled areas in Logar," a source was quoted as saying. "They all are safe and a final decision will be taken by the leadership."
Afghan President Ashraf Ghani instructed security forces to recover the crew of the helicopter, his special envoy for Pakistan, ambassador Omar Zakhilwal, said.
"The President has been in the loop from the outset and has instructed the governor of Logar as well as our security forces to assist in recovering of the hostages. I do believe there will be a peaceful ending to this," he said.
Pakistan Army chief Gen Raheel Sharif called Ghani and sought his help in the recovery of the crew. "Afghan President Ashraf Ghani assured all possible assistance in this regard," Lt Gen Bajwa tweeted.

text: God shaped many events over the course of four years, leading to the first service of Northlake Baptist Chapel on December 8,1974, then located in a residential home near the present campus. Orchard Hills Baptist Church (sponsoring congregation), The Dallas Baptist Association, and The Baptist General Convention of Texas all cooperated in planting Northlake, contributing both members and money in the early years. Dr. Ralph Phelps served as the first mission pastor, followed by Bill Walters (who also served as general contractor when the original building was constructed). Northlake moved from their residential location to its present campus (then comprised of six acres) on February 13,1976 under the leadership of Pastor Calvin Ussery; they also became an independent congregation, Northlake Baptist Church. In April of 1978, the newly organized church voted to call Bob Dean as pastor, and enjoyed the immeasurable impact of his formative twenty-eight year tenure until 2006, when Dr. Dean was elected as Executive Director of the Dallas Baptist Association. Shortly after appointing Bob Dean as Pastor, the church extended a call to Lynn Christie to work beside Dr. Dean as Minister of Music & Youth. He served in this combination position until 1982, when additions to the ministerial staff allowed him to concentrate on music ministry. Lynn has served here for 40 years, providing stability and musical leadership. He will retire in June 2018, on the 40th anniversary of his arrival at Northlake. The church has enjoyed several long-tenured staff members, including: Sylvia Stanford – Minister to Children (1984-91) John Neesly – Minister to Students/Asst. Pastor (1984-91) John Hall – Minister to Students (1990-94) Shawn Risinger – Minister of Adult Education (1992-97) Chris Trent – Minister to Students (1997-2004) Woody Oliver – Associate Pastor (2000-2005) Bob Dean – Senior Pastor (1978-2006) Jennifer Evans – Minister to Children (1998-2009) In 2007, Northlake called current pastor, John Carl, who led Northlake to embrace a new congregational vision: Exalting the Lord => Equipping the Believer => Engaging the World. "Our goal is to impact this world for Christ, so we can't stay inside our walls—we must move UPWARD and OUTWARD!" Throughout Northlake's history, there have been 6 major building campaigns, culminating in the beautiful facilities now enjoyed by its membership. Northlake's Hispanic mission, Casa de Poder, planted in 1998, has its own building as well. In 1999, the church called Agustin Rafaelano as pastor, and he served until 2009. A year later, the church called Oscar Castillo who led the church for more than two years. They have since become an independent church, serving many Spanish-speaking people in our community.

Twilight sets in as I wait for the bus outside the Bulgari store. I know I should be jaded (and not post too much that's merely pretty) but it's hard not to be touched by the sheer complex beauty of this one familiar city.
The papers are full of the corruption, corroding poverty, and other sad nonsense that Chicago sees daily. How poorly they report, though, on the blues, pinks, lavenders, and greys that mingle nightly with the black and gold of the holiday city.

A burst of Tertiary volcanic activity gave rise to a number of islands in the north Atlantic, among them the Faeroes, Iceland, Mull, Rum and St Kilda. The extent of the St Kilda crater is marked today by the isles of Hirta, Dun and Soay to the west, and Boreray, Stac an Armin and Stac Li 6km to the east. These islands, 40mi west of Harris/Lewis, are hard to get at – Islands at the Edge of the World.

NOT REALLY THE TIME to be playing in the mountains is it? Middle O'January? Not if you feel the cold, can't read a map, run on roads, have an ounce of common sense or are just plain soft. No, it's more the time to be knocking out road sessions on the dark nights, racing cross-country, thinking about the challenges of the coming summer, or just thinking bugger it and staying inside! But then I think we've always liked to set ourselves apart in Mercia haven't we?
A personal plea from Tim Werrett, as a result of one or two incidents at Shropshire races over the winter for which friends of ours (who we are all indebted to for their services to fell running) bore the brunt.
Running is a simple sport that people can make too complicated; the basic fitness for any distance runner comes from just going out and running for relatively long distances, on a regular basis, as you have been doing. There will always be days when you feel good and push the pace or run with someone else and get competitive, and this, combined with longer, steadier runs can be very effective. However as we discussed on Saturday all serious distance runners include at least one specific workout per week, similar to the one you did on Saturday.

So, in a recent conference call, Steve Jobs bragged about the 50+ billion dollars Apple has stashed away to use for purchases. However, no real word was made in regards to Facebook itself. Speculation has been brewing that Apple is courting Facebook, and the announcement of 51 billion or so dollars is indication of Steve Jobs' interest in the Social Networking site. Apple needs a strong social networking presence to compete with Facebook, and with Google and its proposed social networking goals. Apple is faced with one of two options, and ignoring social networking is NOT one of them. First, it must either create a brand new, fresh experience on its own. Second, it should buy Facebook, or at least some other major Social Networking platform.
So, where is all of this hoopla about Apple going to buy Facebook? It is all just speculation for the most part. It all started thanks to reports of Mark Zuckerberg and Steve Jobs were seen having coffee together talking about something. This doesn't sound like it was a "one time only" ordeal as they have had a handful of meetings here and there to discuss "things". What are these "things" being discussed, however? Some rumors are that these talks are nothing more than deeper iPhone/Facebook integration bringing Facetalk to Facebook chat. Maybe it is just to convince Zuckerberg his Android phone isn't as awesome as the iPhone 4 and is trying to persuade him to come back to the dark side of the force?
Why does Apple find it so important to be a part of a social networking experience? That is where everyone is at right now. That is how the mobile world is proceeding. Every phone, website, blog, etc. is tied into a social network. We have Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, TwitPic, Picasa, and mobile emails from Apple, Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, and more. Steve Jobs has a popular handset that millions of people are using. The iPhone, and other smartphones, are our means to connecting to the world, and staying connected to people. Social Networks bring those contacts, places, events, and dates closer to us than ever before. Not having that on the iPhone will indefinitely hurt Apple. Speculation, perhaps on my part, is that the new Google Me experience will be tightly woven into the Android experience down the road. This would put Google way out ahead of Facebook, Apple, and any other competitor.
Why doesn't Apple just do like Google and build its own social network? Buying one is cheaper, and easier. To consider the man hours, advertising and work force that would be needed to produce, and release a brand new social network would not be cost effective for Apple right now. Besides, take a look at Google's Orkut, it flopped. Granted, Google bought it as well, but it has been actively building on it, and use it as a bed for OpenSocial. Neither have taken off as they hoped. Apple doesn't want that to happen to them. They want something successful right out of the box. They want something that is either readily adoptable, or already in use.
So, what if Apple can't buy Facebook? What other options do they have? Well, again, they could try and build their own network, and have it designed with the iOS platform in mind. Alternatively, there are numerous other social networks out there that are prime for purchase. Sure, these other networks may not have the user base or the popularity of Facebook, but they could be quickly and easily molded to fit the iPhone and iPad. With millions of users on both platforms, getting them to use it would be like getting a dog to chew on a bone.
All in all, I don't see Facebook being bought out by Apple. At least not in the near future, or from a friendly purchase. Facebook is entirely to profitable to the individuals and stock holders as it is. To be bought by Apple could damage Facebook's profitability. Especially if Steve Jobs wants Facebook solely as a thorn to Google.

By 1852, the present pattern of towns and villages had emerged, following a series of subdivisions and merges. Today, Greene County consists of 14 towns and 5 villages.
The river towns and villages flourished as boat building, brick making and milling centers. As well as serving as supply points for inland settlers. In the mountains, several communities developed as tanning sites, utilizing the now depleted stock of hemlock forest.
By the mid-nineteenth century Greene County New York real estate was becoming a fashionable resort area catering to the upper class. It was marked by competition between the Catskill Mountain House and Hotel Kaaterskill for the tourist trade. Although these resorts and the Otis Elevated Railway leading to them are no longer in operation, remnants of this era can be viewed in the Town of Hunter.

About ALUSB
The ALU School of Business is pioneering a fresh approach to business education, tailored to the needs of a rising Africa. Our vision is to serve as a catalyst for prosperity in Africa by developing African business leaders and entrepreneurs to help make this century The African Century.
Through innovative teaching methods and learning in real-time, we combine a world-class business education and signature V^3 leadership training with the practical experience of doing business in Africa. Our aim? To help you develop the skills and network to succeed as a pan-African business leader.
The ALU School of Business (ALUSB) is a part of African Leadership University (ALU), which is accredited by the Higher Education Council of Rwanda and is located in the heart of the Rwandan capital Kigali, at Kigali Heights. The ALUSB MBA degree is awarded by African Leadership University.
ALUSB launched its first MBA class in 2016 and looks forward to graduating its first class in 2018.
Welcome Letter from our Founder
This is Africa's century, but Africa needs us to achieve its full potential. The private sector will play a key role: maximising current opportunities and unearthing new areas of growth. The ALU School of Business is preparing the global leaders needed to help create this change.
Africa has been through various generations of leadership: the independence era, the era of political instability, and the current era of (relative) political stability. Africa's next era must be one of economic growth and poverty alleviation in order to truly unleash Africa's potential. One of our key tasks this century as African changemakers will be creating one billion jobs. This is essential as Africa's population grows to have the largest proportion of working age people in the world. These jobs will not come from government alone, they will need to come from the private sector and from entrepreneurship.
We need to rapidly develop great leaders for the private sector, and develop the skills of the public sector to create an enabling environment for business, economic growth and true development. This challenge is what inspired me to start ALUSB we have an important mission to achieve for the continent, and we all must play our part.
Having gone to Stanford for my MBA, I was able to see firsthand the impact of a worldclass business school education. At Stanford I developed excellent global networks and learned a great deal about business. However, beyond the fact that this education is out of reach for most people (costing roughly $200K), I found that three things were missing:
- There was no deliberate focus on leadership
- The excellent network I gained was not African
- The actual coursework and learning was not relevant to an African context which is where I knew my life's work was going to be.
In founding ALUSB we have taken these factors into account and created something new and different. It is the only business school in the world that, from inception, is a pan-African business school. Business in Africa is all about relationships; ALUSB will give you a chance to build the powerful pan- African network you need to be successful. We have deliberately focused on research, case studies, and learning from an 'all-star' cast of African executives to give you relevant, real stories of doing business in Africa, taking into account its unique challenges and opportunities. Finally, the core of ALUSB is a focus on leadership: leadership is the key factor that you will continue to need as you grow and develop your career. We are taking decades of leadership experience and applying it to our teaching at ALUSB.
At ALUSB, we believe that you never stop learning. Business leaders need to keep reeducating themselves in order to remain relevant and on top of their game, which is why in addition to our flagship MBA, ALUSB will offer short executive progammes, multiweek 'advanced management programmes', and customised programmes for seasoned business leaders.
Join us in this mission. This is Africa's century, but only if we make it so.

Chicken Français
Our Test Kitchens staff loved the subtle hint of lemon in the sauce of this chicken Français, a classic French favorite. For a more pronounced lemon flavor, try serving with lemon slices.
How to Make It
Combine first 8 ingredients in a shallow dish.
Place each chicken breast half between 2 sheets of plastic wrap, and pound to 1/4-inch thickness using a meat mallet or rolling pin. Dredge chicken in flour, and dip in the egg substitute mixture.
Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium heat. Add 4 chicken breast halves; cook 4 minutes on each side or until done. Remove chicken from pan; keep warm. Wipe the drippings from pan with a paper towel. Repeat the procedure with 1 1/2 teaspoons oil and the remaining chicken.
Melt butter in pan; add 1/4 cup wine and 3 tablespoons juice. Bring to a boil; cook for 10 seconds. Serve immediately over chicken.

The number of people killed or injured in motorcycle accidents is actually down over recent years, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA). In 2013, which is the latest year for which complete information is available, 4,668 died and 88,000 were injured in motorcycle incidents, compared to 4,986 killed and 93,000 injured in 2012. Here are 4 tips to help you avoid becoming part of the statistics for this year, brought to you by the San Diego car insurance experts at American Tri-Star.
1. Wear a Helmet
Head injuries are the leading cause of death for motorcycle riders. The NHTSA estimates for every 100 motorcycle drivers killed without helmets, 37 might have been saved if they did wear the life-saving devices. For motorcycle passengers who were killed, 41 out of 100 might have been saved. Make sure your helmet fits well and doesn't obstruct your vision.
2. Avoid Drinking and Driving
Drinking before riding a motorcycle can be even more dangerous than getting behind the wheel of a car, as riding requires making split-second decisions with precision. About 28 percent of those who died in motorcycle accidents had a blood alcohol level (BAC) of 0.08 or higher, and about 7 percent had a BAC of between 0.07 and 0.08. On weekend nights, 63 percent of those killed in crashes were alcohol-impaired.
3. Slow Down to at or Below the Speed Limit
This is especially important when reaching curves. The faster you go when driving a motorcycle, the greater chance of upsetting your weight distribution or messing with your traction. About 34 percent of all motorcyclists who were implicated in fatal crashes were speeding, which compares to only 21 percent of those driving passenger cars.
4. Avoid Driving Unless You Have a License
Not having a license likely means you have not yet learned to drive a motorcycle properly and passed a driving test or you have had your license revoked. Either situation can lead to unsafe motorcycle riding conditions. About 25 percent of those involved in fatal crashes did not have valid motorcycle licenses during their crashes, compared to only 13 percent of passenger car drivers in fatal crashes. The NHTSA estimates motorcyclists are 1.2 times more likely than car drivers to have suspended or revoked licenses.
Stay safe anytime you take your motorcycle on the road because you never know what obstacles may come your way, and make sure you have the best insurance in case an accident does happen. If you're looking for cheap motorcycle insurance in San Diego, give American Tri-Star a call at 619-272-2100 for a free quote. One of our customer service reps can help you find the right insurance for your needs.

8 Tips for family photo session
1. Clothing
Have your outfits chosen in advance and make sure they are comfortable and attractive. There are no "rules" about what to wear for your portraits. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and like yourself. Many families choose matching colors or outfits. That is totally fine, but you can also coordinate the style of the outfits to show each person's individuality. Choose a look that is fun and relaxed, or something more formal. With different outfits, you'll want to choose colors that compliment each other. Pick similar tones and colors that are in the same family. We discourage use of sunglasses before your session as they may leave "impressions" on your face and you are more likely to squint if your eyes are used to a darker environment.
2. Props / Activities
Our most successful family sessions have incorporated an activity that the family loves to do together. This gives you something to do with your hands and feet, engages the little ones, and brings an authentic smile to your face. For infants & toddlers, bring a few of their favorite items that show their personality at this age. Other ideas include: football, musical instruments, books, board games, bike riding, singing, picnics, the ideas are endless. When families are engaged in doing something that they love together, the photographer will have the opportunity to take some beautiful and authentic photographs.
3. Be well rested and well fed
If any children are attending the session, it is important to schedule it around their nap time. Also, don't show up to a photo shoot on an empty stomach. I meet many families who come to a photo session with lunch/dinner scheduled at the end. If this is your plan, be sure to give everyone a healthy snack before the session.
4. Extra time to get ready
Leave plenty of time for baths, dressing, and grooming. When a family shows up to a family photo session rushed and disorganized, it sets the tone for a rushed and disorganized session. Give yourself extra time so that you are ready before it's time to head out that door.
5. Cheerful Participation
Dads, please cheerfully participate. I know that many dads dread the family photo session, but fathers, please understand how important capturing your family is. These images will be left as a legacy, when your children are grown, with families of their own someday. Family photos are treasured forever and they are so important. Please, please, dads… cheerfully participate in your family photo session. Once you see your happy wife and amazing photographs, you will be so glad that you gave this time to your family.
6. No Cheese
Please leave the "cheese" at home. So many times I have found parents who stand behind the photographer and scream, "Say cheese!" Yelling and demanding young children to look at the camera to smile will only stress your children out (not to mention the photographer) and will result in strained, unnatural and often unflattering photographs. Step back, and allow the photographer to naturally interact and talk with your children. This will result in natural, gorgeous smiles. Help your photographer capture the true essence of your child's personality by talking with and coaxing out those smiles naturally and easily.
7. Have Fun
Don't be afraid to pick up your children and toss them in the air. Give your wife a sweet kiss on the check. Tell your husband how much you love him and appreciate him for being there for your family. Have fun. Laugh. Giggle. Joke. Embrace. Kiss. Snuggle. Play. Doing these things will allow the photographer to capture the emotion and true beauty of your family. Leave the stiff "cheese" faces for Uncle Bob at the next family reunion. Show your photographer who you really are, so that they have the opportunity to capture your love through their lens.
8. Lastly
The best photographs are often the ones where everyone is engaged or interacting with each other. Understand that not every picture needs to have everyone looking at the camera and smiling at the same time. If you are engaged as a family and loving on each other, your eyes will be on your family members and your smile will be natural. These are the photographs that you will cherish most because they depict your family connection and your love.

NEWARK, N.J. -- Pregnant women, many in their teens and some with toddlers in tow, fill the examining rooms and lounges in the Mother Infant Care clinic at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey here. But the fathers of the unborn children, many also in their teens, are stopped at the door.
They sit on hard plastic chairs in the clinic`s vestibule, waiting, sometimes for hours, until their wives or girlfriends emerge. Until recently, there was nothing else for them to do.
Their situation mirrors a larger national problem. Services for teen-age mothers abound, but programs to help teen-age fathers are a fledgling concept despite research that suggests meeting their needs can help reduce the rate of adolescent pregnancy.
Assisting teen-age fathers is ``an idea whose time has come,`` said Sue Yates, a spokeswoman for the Planned Parenthood Federation in Manhattan, N.Y.
This summer, James C. Roberson II, a Howard University medical student who plans a career in adolescent medicine, started a free program for teen-age fathers at the clinic here. Roberson planned the program with Dr. Robert L. Johnson, the university`s director of adolescent medicine, and received a grant from the Smith Kline Beckman Corp. to cover its costs.
He recruited teen-age fathers and met with them for ``rap sessions`` that covered getting jobs and using contraception, among other topics.
The interest shown in the program, which officially ended Aug. 15, when Roberson left to return to school, has prompted clinic administrators to consider continuing it.
With 38 men enrolled, ranging in age from 14 to 29 but most about 17 or 18, the program is the only one of its kind in a city where one out of every four babies is born to a teen-ager.

Michigan takes its gun laws very serious and any violation has a risk of carrying severe fines and penalties. MCL 750.234(d) specifically makes it illegal to possess a firearm on certain premises, such as banks, churches, courts, theaters, and hospitals. If convicted of possessing a firearm in one of these areas, you will be faced with a misdemeanor and possibly 90 days in jails with $100.00 in fines.
If you have ever been convicted of a felony it is unlawful to possess a firearm. Pursuant to MCL 750.224(f) you will be facing a 5-year felony and fines up to $5,000.00. It is for this reason that you contact an experienced defense lawyer immediately.
If you have been charged with a gun crime in the Oakland, Wayne or Macomb County communities of Royal Oak, Bloomfield Hills, Detroit, Warren, Troy or any surrounding area and want the best defense, call Michigan Criminal Attorney Barton Morris at (248) 541-2600. Barton Morris was recently voted Top Attorney in Metro Detroit for 2012 and 2013 in the area of criminal defense.

Did you ever attend a Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus performance?
The greatest show on earth will end this May. Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus announced on its website on Saturday night that after 146 years of performances, it will be folding its big tent forever. Final performances will continue through May. The company's website cited declining ticket sales, which dropped dramatically after elephants were phased out from the shows last year.
Did you ever attend the circus? We'd like to read your comments and memories.

San Marcos: situated on beautiful Lake Atitlan, San Marcos is well known for the Pyramids Meditation Centre, many holistic and yoga centers, a great choice of international restaurants, mountains to hike, volcanoes to climb, kayaks to rent, a new Tai Chi Center and an authentic Mayan culture that still speaks their own language and wears traditional clothing.

Wonderful cabin — quiet but close enough to town to be convenient Loved the beautiful private garden, kitchen, unlimited drinking water, and hot shower. Jim (owner) and Tom (property manager) were super kind and responsive to questions. A great place to relax and enjoy San Marcos.
It's a great house! The location is awesome, close to town but away from the noisy dogs. The balcony is perfect for watching all the birds and squirrels. I slept very well in the world-class bed, in the very quiet bedroom downstairs. Also I felt very safe there, and it was nice to have the security alarm system. I stayed there a month on a working holiday and fully appreciated having such a perfect HQ.
We enjoyed our stay at this house. The location is very convenient—a few minutes walk outside San Marcos village on a quiet stretch of road with no other houses around. Yoga classes at Hostal Del Lago are two minutes walk away. The bright living, dining and kitchen area upstairs has views of the surrounding trees and volcanoes. It leads on to a lovely terrace with a table and comfortable seating with views of the volcanoes, and a little bit of the lake through the trees.
Downstairs is the main bedroom and large attached bathroom with plenty of hot water. It leads into the garden of fruit trees and flowers, and the second bedroom is in a separate building next door.
The kitchen was well equipped with an oven, blender, and espresso maker, and there's a water filtration system throughout the house so we could drink the tap water.
There's an alarm system and a locked cupboard for valuables so we felt safe. The biggest downside was no WiFi so we had to use 3G on our phone as a personal hotspot, which ended up being expensive as we use the internet a lot.
The owner had some issues returning our deposit (it took 3 weeks) due to a bank problem, but it seems this has been sorted now so I don't think it should affect future guests.

The Computer Is The New Cookbook
The Internet is the biggest, baddest cookbook known to mankind, and one of evolution's finest creations. There is one problem only, the secret horror that no one talks about, a possibly dangerous loss of time; when a lost soul surfs for a recipe, days can go by. Recipes can go by. It's a recipe blackout. What to make and how to make it. And the diversity on those dinner options is astounding, from ingredients, cooking methods, single serving, and more.
Adjustments to recipes can be found, whether the change is amount of servings or a switcheroo on an ingredient. Although the hardcover cookbooks are still pulled out on occasion, time's a wasting. The world demands it now. It's nearly a surprise that anyone cooks at all. The word recipe itself attracts 111,000,000 hits. Many of these sites offer free recipes.
The free websites make their money on advertising and there's plenty to advertise when it comes to cooking and that which is food related. Food Network has a free service that allows a free recipe box to be set up on-line. They also have videos of recipes, a section on freezer friendly foods, and another section on meals for one. This is the television station of Rachael Ray, the Barefoot Contessa, and Paula Deen, the Southern belle of the Food Network. They have 516 meatloaf recipes just on this website, an impressive display. Food Network says that meatloaf is one of the most requested recipes.
It used to be if somebody needed a recipe, they could always ask around. Or walk over to the cookbooks and pull them out. But a person can now compare six recipes for the same dish, match it to their ingredients, and be done with the cookbook part; that's the sweet part of the Internet. All this happens in seconds, depending on your download. The time saved by using the Internet as opposed to traditional cookbooks is unbelievable.
Sauerkraut is an ethnic favorite, from Korean to German. It produced 2,210,000 hits on the Internet. There's nothing to it, just cut up your cabbage, pour a little vinegar on it, maybe some salt and pepper, and let it sit for a few days, more or less, depending on the weather. That's the word of mouth version; on the Internet, it can be cooked or not cooked, and the ingredients are as diverse as the taste buds.
Which recipe is better? That's always a matter of opinion, but a multitude of comparison values await on the Internet. And how many versions of the same recipe are there? It is unfathomable, from old fashioned fudge to chili, recipes and variations thereof abound. For the cook with the heart of a poet, frameworks are in evidence at a glance. The part-time dabbler in the kitchen can research, decide, and let loose cooking the moment the idea is conceived. Even cookies like Grandma used to make. Chewy, that is. Not crisp, oatmeal maybe, golden, aromatic, health food of the gods. There were 1,500,000 hits for recipe, chewy oatmeal cookies.
There is something heartening about learning an old recipe from a computer screen. It only has to happen once to open up the possibilities. A person can compare the classics, such as chicken soup, a hundred ways at least, 16,000,000 to be exact, from the mundane to the bit more exotic. All this and much more is on the Internet, from cruising the net to watching on-line cooking shows. Kitchens soon will have built in computer nooks just above the work area. As a time-saver and for the wealth of variety it offers, the computer is the new cookbook.

You bet! That is how I know all these statistics. When I was hungry for classic rice pudding, I found this recipe – http://www.cooks.com/rec/doc/0,1642,144175-228200,00.html, Mom's Top Of Stove Rice Pudding. OMG! The hours I spent reading recipes and looking around was time well spent.September 8, 2014
The problem with the web is that if you are not certain exactly what it is you are searching for, you can easily just lose hours looking around!September 8, 2014

About a boy: Hugh Grant welcomes second child
The actor confirmed through Twitter that his daughter now has a new baby brother — and he couldn't be more thrilled.
Hugh Grant has become a daddy for the second time. The actor tweeted the news on Saturday.
"In answer to some journos, am thrilled my daughter now has a brother. Adore them both to an uncool degree. They have a fab mum."
He then added two more tweets, just to get the facts straight.
"And to be crystal clear. I am the Daddy," he said, followed by "Thanks for v kind messages. Now I've confirmed (press somehow got birth certificate & were calling),hoping my family will be left in peace."
The new baby is reportedly a full-blooded brother of Grant's daughter. Their mom, Tinglan Hong, is something of a mystery.
"The actor and Hong had their first child in 2011, when his spokeswoman said in a statement that the baby girl was the result of a 'fleeting affair' but Grant 'could not be happier or more supportive,'" said Reuters.
It looks like the two reunited, but it's still not clear whether they are a couple. When the first child was born in 2011, Hong fought back against British tabloids, hoping to protect her child.
"Days [after the birth of their daughter], Hong won a court injunction in Britain 'prohibiting harassment' of her and the child after she said paparazzi had made her life unbearable," said Reuters. "Grant is a strident critic of Britain's tabloid newspaper culture."
Hugh Grant: Jon Stewart "correct to give me kicking" >>
The actor has dated many other actresses, most the time in the public eye. Grant and Elizabeth Hurley were together for 13 years but ended their relationship in 2000. The two have stayed friends, and Grant is the godfather of Hurley's son.
Though Grant did confirm the new birth on Twitter, he did not mention a name or anything else about his new son or how the mother is doing. However, the UK Daily Mail reports the baby's name is Felix Chang.
Congrats to Hugh Grant and family!

I was born in Oregon, spent my childhood in South San Francisco and my youth in Modesto, California. I have lived in Burbank since January 7, 1996. I started working with Super8 Film when I was about 14 years old - creating stop-motion claymation shorts. My friends and I made several narrative shorts using Super8 Kodachrome before we switched to Hi8 Video and made a few longer projects. I worked as a roller-skating carhop at the A&W Drive-In for 4 years and we made a commercial for them. I studied film production and film editing at Loyola Marymount University in 1994 and graduated from George Fox University in 1995. I interned at Warner Brothers. I do acting from time to time and my first and most famous role was that of a townswoman in Back to the Future 3. I trained as a Script Supervisor at the American Film Institute in 1996. I am presently a contractor with the City of Burbank Public Information Office. I moonlight as a Lyft driver sometimes so I can talk to people (videographers/editors have surprisingly few social opportunities!)
I formally started my videography business in 2002 after being laid off from Walt Disney Imagineering where I worked for 5 years (when the design phase of our project, Tokyo DisneySea, was complete).
My philosophy in business is kindness, quality and affordability. That's why I have chosen a camera package of 4 cameras instead of just one really expensive one. I can get lots of great coverage that way. Sometimes a second camera operator is needed but I've never needed more than that.
I've filmed some breathtaking weddings and parties! The Kodak Theater was unforgettable in 2008! Wonderland Tea Party was pure magic in 2015! Yacht wedding cruises in Newport Beach in 2004 were so refreshing! Filming a Firefighter's memorial in 2016 was a profound honor. I love filming childbirth videos now.
I archive all of my work so that clients can use it in the future. I invite all clients to stay connected with me on facebook. You never know what the future might bring! My couples from the early millennium originally received their weddings on VHS before the invention of DVDs but they are now able to access those videos online in better quality.....because I saved everything. This is the stuff of life.

These projects focus on student learning and the design or development of new instructional approaches, curriculum materials, and technology enhanced learning environments. All of these projects share a commitment to equity and inclusion for all students in STEM.
Integration of Environmental Chemistry and Computing to Advance Evidence-based Reasoning, Problem Solving, and Computational Thinking in Middle School Students (CHEM+C)
This project will explore the integration of core chemistry topics and computational thinking through student interaction with and manipulation of models that visually represent chemical systems, such as the carbon cycle. When a student examines a visual, runnable model, makes a prediction, changes the programming code, and then runs the model again, the computer provides feedback to the student that demands explanation. The process of anticipating, interpreting, and testing the computer's feedback, when coupled with a structured argumentation process, supports a student's abilities to think and act like a scientist as they explore and learn about both the computational and physical world.
The Development of a New Instructional Approach to Teach Engineering in Middle School Science Classrooms
This project has two overall goals. The first goal is to create a new instructional approach that middle school science teachers can use to teach the engineering design process. The second goal is to learn more about how middle school students propose, support, critique and revise design solutions.
Texas Energy Education Project (TEEP)
Thanks to collaboration between the Texas Natural Gas Foundation, the State Energy Conservation Office and the Texas Regional Collaboratives at the University of Texas, science teachers will have a high quality energy supplement to teach their students about natural gas and other Texas fuels.
Early Childhood (BLOCKS)
The Building Baseline Objectives for Children's Knowledge and Skills in Science (BLOCKS) project, was a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded study that involved extensive classroom observation of young children's ability to learn science processes and content. Throughout the project the 24 prekindergarten teachers-as-researchers received intensive professional development and mentoring support similar to that afforded by the Texas Regional Collaboratives (TRC) to K-12 science and mathematics teachers.
Fraction Activities and Assessment for Conceptual Teaching (FAACT)
Fraction Activities and Assessment for Conceptual Teaching for Students with Learning Disabilities (LD) is a research proposal in the Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program. The proposed project will build on established research on fraction learning in mathematics education to augment conceptual understanding of fractions for students with LD.
Project LEAP
Teaching and learning algebra has undergone a critical transformation in the US over the last two decades. Recognizing that historical paths to algebra have been largely unsuccessful in terms of students' achievement in algebra, mathematics educators have increasingly advocated that algebra be re-conceptualized in school mathematics as a longitudinal, grades K-12 strand of thinking. In particular, mathematics educators advocate that students have long-term, sustained algebra experiences in school mathematics, beginning in the elementary grades, that build their natural, informal intuitions about structure and relationships into formalized ways of mathematical thinking. Yet research has not systematically addressed how the development of children's algebraic thinking effects their understanding of core algebraic concepts and practices in comparison to students who receive more traditional arithmetic-based instruction. Indeed, a fundamental assumption of early algebra education is that it will increase children's understanding of algebraic concepts and practices and, ultimately, improve their success in the study of more advanced mathematics—particularly algebra—in secondary grades. To date, however, this premise is largely untested. ProjectLEAP is comprised of four current and two past projects.
