In the most recent release of Synergy Practice Management we added a performance enhancement that means we no longer support Synergy with Microsoft Office 2007 and older.
There's a pattern emerging…
It's important for you and your business to upgrade software – including Synergy, Microsoft Office, Windows Server, design software, accounting software – to ensure you're getting the benefits of continued development, ongoing support and compatibility.
We asked around our office for a few thoughts on why upgrading software is important, here's what we came up with.
"…If you pick applications that don't continue a development path your business capabilities will not grow as fast as your competitors'…"
The first thing you have to ask yourself is why do you have the software in the first place? For the most part, business software is about productivity. Whether Microsoft Office suite, design applications, accounting software or otherwise, the tools, used properly, are supposed to make you, your team and business, more effective and efficient.
There is no such thing as perfect software. Even if an application does something that makes a huge difference to your working life, it can always be improved and enhanced. Software developers pursue improvements and enhancements to make their products the most desirable ones on the market (usually among stiff competition). If you pick applications that don't continue a development path your business capabilities will not grow as fast as your competitors'.
Updates can be for amazing new features, incremental performance improvements and bug fixes, or somewhere in between. Synergy, for example, started out as a purely project accounting application (back in 2000) and has since added document management, performance reporting, transmittals and drawing register, contract admin, accounting software connections and more. In the most recent release (4.9.3), one enhancement was using Microsoft Word .DOCX files for templates, which means faster template creation for you. Older versions of Office don't support .DOCX – if you're still on aging software like that, then your day-to-day business performance is already affected. Time to upgrade!
It is in dog years… Technology years are probably quite a bit worse than that, given the speed of change and exponential capability growth.
Aside from its age, there are other reasons we no longer support Server 2003. Synergy e-learning specialist Melanie Bunting says Server 2003 no longer supports the level of SQL required to run Synergy.
"Synergy is developed to take advantage of the latest capabilities of Microsoft SQL [database communications code]," she says.
"A company running Server 2003 will be in a situation where it can't upgrade to the latest version of Synergy, missing out on bug fixes, performance gains, enhancements and new features.
"We put out updates quite regularly and the most recent update included the switch to using the latest generation of Word template using the .DOCX file type. It doesn't seem like a big deal, but the benefit is a significantly faster template load time. Anyone using Office 2007 or older, or using Server 2003, won't be able to take advantage of this update as their office software can't run it."
Synergy will run on SQL 2008 R2, though we recommend SQL 2012.
Synergy client support consultant Tom Dass says it's important for clients to understand the difference between Microsoft's mainstream support and extended support.
"Mainstream support provides fixes, patches, new development and hot fixes released regularly," he says.
"Extended support is paid support only… in effect, life support."
Examples of Microsoft software no longer on any kind of support are Server 2003 (support ended in July 2015) and Windows XP (ended in early 2014). SQL 2005, which already won't run the latest version of Synergy, loses extended support at the end of 2016, but is no longer on mainstream support.
That is to say, everyone – other software developers – is updating their software. If you use accounting software like MYOB and Xero, you need to be on support and maintenance with Synergy. Each accounting software vendor updates its own systems regularly, which means we need to update Synergy to ensure it remains compatible. MYOB does this all the time, often without any notice. The first we know is when a client calls to say Connect for MYOB has stopped working. We have to rush through an update to get things back on track.
Total Synergy financial administrator Jenny Peacock says it's also important to ensure accounting software is up to date to remain inline with ATO regulations.
"If accounting software is not up-to-date then you can run into trouble with the ATO and other government departments," she says.
"The ATO no longer accepts paper or mail, everything must be electronic, old software is not compatible with their e-commerce environment."
Businesses that stay ahead on technology gain many competitive benefits – some good examples are i2C Architects, CHROFI, NGS Consulting Structural Engineers – so it's important to look at the value of staying up-to-date in business, productivity and competitive terms.
Windows 10 was released just last week promising a remarkable future and new direction for the ubiquitous desktop (and now mobile) operating system. If you haven't already, perhaps this is a good time to plan technology as a key business strategy and take advantage of the future.

EA Youth Express Hopes for the Future through Art
At Educational Alliance's "Young Voices Through Art" event, youth from downtown Manhattan's public schools were given a place to showcase their visions of the year 2050.
Lower East Side, NY – Inspired by recent events, students are using art to showcase their hopes and visions for the future. Educational Alliance (EA), a community based organization serving more than 50,000 New Yorkers annually, hosted "Young Voices Through Art: Our Visions of 2050" on the Lower East Side on the evening of Thursday, March 30th at their flagship community center, Manny Cantor Center. The event featured original artwork created by students in Educational Alliance Boys & Girls Clubs programs in elementary, middle, and high schools in lower Manhattan as well as speeches from the young artists addressing community, education, feminism, and environmental issues.
Speaking at the event, Educational Alliance President & CEO Alan van Capelle said, "Every social justice movement has had an artistic component to it. Art has been able to move people to care about an issue and then to act on that issue. All of the young people in this room, all of you, are going to be the problem solvers of tomorrow."
Students from Educational Alliance Boys & Girls Clubs spoke on the art they created and their hopes for the future. Maylani, one of the young artists, urged attendees of all ages to take action for the things they believe in, saying, "We can continue to complain about what politicians and leaders are doing or we can make changes in our daily lives right now. Change doesn't just happen at the voting booth. It happens at the checkout counter. It happens at the dinner table. It happens at schools and offices. It even happens in our homes."

So let me set this up for you guys. Clary came to Jace to show him her brand new spanking ability, and he is rightfully a little skeptical about the whole thing until she forces him to shut the hell up. Then Clary proceeds to show Jace how the runes made her drawing of the coffee cup real.
Everyone got that? Okay, I have several problems with this. I actually have been holding off talking about this until now. You mean to tell me, that it's just now occurring to Jace and the other Shadowhunters that this could be an actual method to hide the mortal cup? You would think that for Jace especially, all the torn paintings back in Clary's apartment would be a clue. Although, admittedly, I could slightly understand Jace not knowing about this method, because for all his boasting; Jace is still a young and inexperienced Shadowhunter.
However, I can't quite believe that this method of hiding things didn't occur to Hodge who has decades worth of experience as both a Shadowhunter and a Scholar. It would be reasonable to assume that Jace at some point would have told Hodge that Clary's apartment was ransacked. It's is also reasonable to assume that Jace would have mentioned the state of the paintings.
You would think that Hodge with his supposedly 'high intelligence' would have put two and two together and realized that it was a huge possibility that Jocelyn hides the cup in one of her paintings. Yet, we are only hearing about this now? It's only fair to come to the conclusion that once again Cassandra Clare didn't think this plot twist through and now it's coming back to bite her in her ass. Because this? This is a plot hole and a really obvious one at that.
Another issue I have with this is passage is that Jace is just now questioning how Clary has instant knowledge of the runes. Runes, I would like to remind you that she logically shouldn't have known in the first place. I also have to ask why again: Why did Joceyeln teach Clary the runes, and then proceeded to have Clary's memories erased? Magnus said very plainly back in Chapter 13, that there was no true guarantee that Clary would ever receive all of her memories back.
Clary looked at him sharply. "Will I get all my memories back then? Whatever was taken out of my head?"
"I don't know. They might come back all at once, or in stages. Or you might never remember what you've forgotten over the years. What your mother asked me to do was unique, in my experience. I've no idea what will happen."
At this point, the only way Clare could make this plot point make sense if she pulls something out of her ass later that clears up this mess in a logical thoughtful way. And as Clare has shown us throughout the entirety of this book, she has a really hard time of doing that.

Police on Monday arrested a Plymouth man and charged him with shooting a man in Wilkes-Barre earlier this month.
Robert Rodriguez, 23, shot a man on Parrish Street on Feb. 2, Wilkes-Barre police said in a news release. The shooting victim, whose name was not released, is recovering from multiple gunshot wounds at an area hospital, police said.
Police identified Rodriguez as a suspect during the investigation into the shooting, and obtained a warrant for his arrest on Friday.
Subsequent investigation revealed that Rodriguez was staying at a Hanover Twp. residence, police said.
Officers placed that residence under surveillance and on Monday they saw Rodriguez leave in a pickup truck, according to police.
Police pulled over the vehicle on Carey Avenue in Wilkes-Barre and took Rodriguez into custody without incident. He had a loaded firearm in his possession when he was arrested, police said.
Rodriguez is charged with aggravated assault, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, reckless endangerment and weapons violations, according to police.
He had not been arraigned as of 10 p.m. Monday, according to court records.
Wilkes-Barre and Hanover Twp. police, state police, Luzerne County detectives and the FBI took part in the investigation.

NORTH LAUDERDALE -- A proposal to locate a propane appliance and servicing business near two apartment complexes and a gas station will be discussed at tonight`s City Council meeting.
In August, Propane USA filed for a zoning exemption to locate part of its Margate operation to the 1200 block of South State Road 7. Last week, the application was approved by the Planning and Zoning Board.
Although the board voted 5-3 in favor of allowing Propane USA in North Lauderdale, board member Vince Carfora said final action by the City Council could depend on how the city categorizes a propane gas business.
Carfora said City Attorney Sam Goren will have to decide if a propane gas business is in the same category as a gas station.
If so, city zoning codes would prohibit the business from locating in the area because it would be too close to a Circle K convenience store/gas station.
Codes prohibit gas stations from being closer together than 1,000 feet.
``We couldn`t turn it down because it`s new to our code,`` Carfora said.
Jerry Linker, owner of Propane USA, said he would like to relocate his main business office and a retail showroom to the State Road 7 site in North Lauderdale.
Cafora said the business would have a 1,000 gallon propane tank at the new site.
According to Linker, the propane on the site would be used only to fill the appliances sold at the proposed North Lauderdale location.
Having the tank in North Lauderdale would mean customers would not have to go to the company`s existing plant, 1880 NW 54th Ave. in Margate, to get their propane tanks filled.

Pioneers of Space
We think it's time to give you an insight into the world and history of Terraforming Mars and the competing corporations, so here goes:
When considering the colonization of Mars, the first pioneers were Interplanetary Cinematics, a media company that funded their first Martian settlements by making it into a live broadcast soap opera with plenty of advertising. This gave them a head start on the Red Planet, an advantage that allowed them to compete with much larger corporations.
However, they were not the only actors in early space colonization. National space programs also joined the space race, but with the increasing problems on Earth, funding dwindled over time, and a private company named Phobos Logistics was able to purchase several national space programs. With a lot of space infrastructure and technology, PhoboLog (to which it was renamed) set out to dominate ship building and spacefaring in the solar system.
This allowed them to play a key role in the terraforming of Mars (2300-2700), delivering both shipments and asteroids to the Red Planet, but also colonizing other bodies and profiting from trade and mining. Over the centuries, some corporations merged, some went bankrupt, but PhoboLog always managed to hold its own.
With the invention of the warp drive in 2692 by ThorGate, the stars came within reach. The warp drive enables a ship to create a space-time 'bubble' around itself and move this bubble faster than light, avoiding Einstein's famous speed limit. It takes enormous amounts of energy, though, and even more the heavier the ship, so even with the astounding energies of a mass converter, small probes may only reach a speed of 30 times the speed of light (30c), while big ships can only reach about 8c. The energy input has a limit, since it would not be a good idea to vaporize the entire engine.
Corporations set out to colonize the nearby star systems, and the first interstellar colony was founded in 2719 by ThorGate. PhoboLog was not far behind, though, claiming Ashkelon in 2729, establishing extensive mining and shipyards to supply humanity with huge ships for colonizing and trade.
By 2782, the terraforming of Mars was completed and 28 interstellar colonies had been established. They
did not thrive though, because each star system lies several light years apart, meaning travel times averaging a year and communications being not much faster. Markets shifted, leaving traders without profit. Science stagnated due to lack of exchange and communications. Rebellions, disasters and epidemics tore the worlds apart before any help from Sol could be had. The colonies were a disappointment and the corporations began to lose interest in them. Some even reverted into autonomous kingdoms.
With the colonial decline, the demand for PhoboLog's ships deceased too, setting the shipyards of Ashkelon almost on stand-by. By focusing on the steady but not very lucrative mining market (competing with all the asteroid mining going on in the solar system), PhoboLog could continue their operations on Ashkelon and at least replace their cargo ships as they wore out.
In 2827, however, PhoboLog scientists stumbled upon an innocent discovery that would completely change the future of mankind. Helium-3 was found in large concentrations in the asteroid fields around the star Merope in the Pleiades star cluster. Helium-3 is a key fuel for the fusion process necessary to ignite the mass converter, which in turn is needed for the warp drive. The real key, though, was its location in a star cluster. With distances under a light year, communications and travel could be made in weeks instead of years, eliminating all the problems that caused the colonial decline!
Once the chief analysts of PhoboLog realized this, they immediately ordered the top secret construction and launching of colony ships from Ashkelon, avoiding any surveillance in the solar system. For fifty years they traveled before reaching the Pleiades in 3008, and only then had their competitors finally realized what they were up to, and began hurrying to send colonizers of their own. For another fifty years PhoboLog built their new empire before other corporations began to arrive.
Once corporate competition began to harden in the Pleiades, things began to get ugly. With Earth so very far away, the rule of the strong began, and mighty war fleets clashed and forced the colonized worlds into obedience in what became known as the Pleiad Conflict. Only because of their head start was PhoboLog able to fend for itself when mightier corporations come to claim the Pleiades.
They had some advantages though; a knowledge of the land, and their well-homed cunning. Their famed Wing Commanders lead their squadrons in surprise attacks to take out the opposition, while their analysts always came up with new ways to surprise their opponents.
Will PhoboLog become the ruler of the Pleiades and dictate humanity's future?
Terraforming Mars – Fleets – The Pleiad Conflict - Corporate Lords Expansion
Designer Notes
This week, our brother Daniel, the designer of Fleets (and Wilderness), gives his thoughts on the Corporate Lords expansion. We also release the rules sheet for the Corporate Lords expansion to Fleets.
Daniel: This week we think it's time to show the rules for Corporate Lords. This "mini"-expansion might look like "just another punchboard", but it adds quite a few new aspects to the game. Who hasn't dreamed of having a few extra unique escort ships, or having special effects for the different corporations?
So, what are we looking forward to add to the game? What did we feel was amiss in the first game? Well, in order to make the basic game balanced and equal between players, we decided to make all corporations identical, without any special effects, reasoning that the flagships, upgrades, and escort ships would be enough for the basic game. But no more! It's more fun to add some characteristics to the corporations. Especially as we also add new escort ships to them.
Moreover, we had reports of different player groups having trouble with some of the escort ships running out. Yes, we have taken this chance to add some more escort ships!
Last, but not least, we wanted to add a few more effects to the game. Operation bases were the first thing that we really wanted to add to the game. Actually, our latest idea was to add the merchants and pirates, which effects the interaction and tactics of the game.
/Daniel Fryxelius
Different Breeds
You are the head of the most successful corporation in human history – at least, that's how you see it. Who could compete with the mighty Teractor-Olympiac? With its ambassador shuttle, diplomacy is always efficient, and your production capacity is second to none.
Teractor-Olympiac gains 2 MegaCredits extra in each rewards phase.
Still, there are the warmongers of Poseidon, never to be underestimated. Not only is the dreaded Hulk making appearances, but their flagships are now equipped with new hull-piercing lance-batteries.
Poseidon's flagships make an extra attack causing 2 damages.
But if you can just avoid them long enough, your endurance will carry the day.
Then there is the ThorGate Alliance, with their annoying Ion cruiser constantly disrupting your attack plans by draining the energy of your fleets. And somehow, they never seem to run out of energy themselves!
The fleets of ThorGate Alliance start with 1 extra energy and regenerate 1 extra energy each rewards phase.
Even so, ThorGate is no match in the long run. With your superior production, you can just buy extra generators for your fleets to even out their advantage.
Last, but not least, is PhoboLog, that hated bunch of infidels! Thinking that their head start in colonizing the Pleiades will give them a gold medal, despite their mediocre holdings. What you cannot understand is why they still somehow come out ahead, their ace pilots striking from nowhere and always having new tricks up their sleeves!
PhoboLog gets an additional action card each rewards phase.
They can trickety-trick all they want – in the end there is power, and power lies with Teractor-Olympiac! At least, that's how you see it.
Wing Commander
You're a PhoboLog pilot, trained in the Merope asteroid field, and graduated from the corporate academy. For 25 long years you have fought pirates and corporate foes, earning the position of Wing Commander. Your squadron is the pride of the fleet and you have a reputation of striking like lightning and being impossible to kill. There is only one thing stopping you from being the ultimate hero of PhoboLog: there is another PhoboLog ace, too!
Yes, PhoboLog now comes with 2 special escort ships, the Wing Commanders! Being small might fool the opponent, but with an attack strength of 2 and a health of 3, the Wing Commanders are not all that easy to take out, especially if you have a shield ship or two in your fleet. What makes the Wing Commanders special, though, is their ability to lower the initiative value of their own squadron by 1. They will often attack before the opponent can respond, taking out the greatest opposing threat. For a standard 4-space squadron, this would mean that 3 fighters can join the attack run, but there are fleets with even larger squadrons…
Last week, we showed you the special escort ships of Poseidon (the Hulk) and Teractor-Olympiac (Ambassador Shuttle). Now it is time to look at the last corporation; what does the ThorGate Alliance have up it's sleeve? With a heritage of being energy specialists, it may come as no surprise that they would strive to keep that advantage – they now have an Ion Cruiser. Like other cruisers, it has attack 4 and health 4, but each time it attacks, it may lower an opposing fleet's energy 3 steps with its ion cannons!
This can be really nasty for anyone getting in its way. Losing 3 energy is quite a blow, making the Ion Cruiser a prime target to either stay away from, or take out. Having only a health of 4 makes the cruisers vulnerable to enemy fire, and if you want to keep this ship in play, you'd better protect it with shield ships and interceptors. On the other hand, this will divert the attention from the flagship, increasing your chances of survival.
These special escort ships are not the only thing setting the corporations apart in Corporate Lords, the upcoming expansion for Fleets: the Pleiad Conflict…
Pets in Space
With the upcoming Corporate Lords expansion for Fleets: The Pleiad Conflict, each corporation gets a unique escort ship. Of course, these reflect the different focuses of the corporations. Poseidon, for example, is a rather aggressive faction and brings its new pet the Hulk into battle:
What better way to scare your opponent's off than to show off your 'little' pit-bull terrier? Since the corporations get their 'pets' for free, Poseidon is going to start the game off in a very scary way (and just wait until you see their corporate ability!). If you manage to kill the Hulk, though, it is out of the game for good, but with a health of 8 that's a pretty tall order. Maybe best to just avoid it, be somewhere else…
Teractor-Olympiac, on the other hand, is more focused on long-term strategy and gets an Ambassador shuttle:
Without any attack strength, the shuttle may not be perceived as a threat, and with 5 health maybe too big a bite to bother with, but looks can be deceiving – the extra reward of 1 Diplomatic Point each round adds up, and we've had more than one play-test where this definitely contributed to Teractor-Olympiac's victory.
Dragon's Lair
Some systems will attract you more than others. Maybe they have a juicy reward, maybe a strong effect, but one thing is certain; you'll guard that system no matter what. Like a dragon, you will guard its riches, and attack anyone foolish enough to come close. But fighting is costly, so you need a lair.
Your fleet will need to replenish its energy and make repairs after the repeated battles. With the Corporate Lords expansion you get just what you need – Operation bases.
Each player can have one Operation base in play, and its marker (same size as a fleet marker) is placed on a system. Whenever you move or deploy a fleet to the system with your Operation base, that fleet can immediately repair 2 damages and gain 3 energy. The Operation base is bought for 4 MC in the Build phase, when buying escort ships, and is then placed on any system during Deployment, like placing a fleet. The Operation base does not block you from having a fleet there, and it doesn't count as a fleet. It cannot be attacked, but you can destroy your own base in the Build phase in order to be able to buy a new one and place it at another system.
Operation bases are great when a battered fleet needs to recuperate, but they are also good for newly bought fleets to gain that extra energy and be less vulnerable to strong enemies. It does have disadvantages, though. It 'ties' you to a system, the base being expensive to move. It might also fall under siege from a rival corporation placing their strongest fleet there together with their own base!
Stakes are high, and the competition is fierce between the dragons, the Corporate Lords!
Merchants Ohoy!
Although patrolled by pirates and corporate war fleets, the Pleiades are also home to merchants, who bring resources and commodities between the systems. And they are more than willing to trade with you (could it be your big guns?). For some influence at the Pleiad council, they will bring you the riches from any system!
Specifically, the Merchant fleet is placed / moved by the second player after the player order phase, making the chosen system quite attractive, because the Merchants add a new diplomatic action to that system: Spend 1 Diplomacy Point to tax any untaxed system. Every player with a fleet at the Merchants may use this action once, just like ordinary system actions.
So, what systems would be nice to tax then? How about Corpas, with a reward of 2 DPs, netting you +1 DP. If you have more of an economic focus, then maybe Altax III or Eden would do fine with their MegaCredit boost. For the most value, though, you should consider taxing the Merope Asteroid Field with its 2 MegaCredits + 3 energy reward. That energy may come in handy, too, when battling the other fleets drawn to the Merchants. Speaking of which, make sure you tax your favorite system before your opponents do! Each system can still only be taxed once, you know. And you can still do normal taxation actions.
You don't like the Merchants dealing with your enemies? Well, you can't shoot at the Merchants, but you can go there with your strongest fleet, and dare anyone to oppose you!
Space Pirates!
Watch out for the pirates!
In the upcoming Corporate Lords expansion to Fleets: the Pleiad Conflict, there will be pirates. They are even depicted on the presentation picture we presented last week. The Pirates are represented by a neutral fleet marker that is placed by player number 3 at the beginning of each round (this means that the pirates will not be used in a 2-player game). The Pirates will attack any fleet entering the system, causing 4 damage that the player must distribute to the entering fleet.
So how does this affect gameplay? First off, it will scare people away. On the other hand, if your opponents will not deploy there, maybe you can go there, take the damage and gain a VP plus the system rewards. In order to go to the Pirates' location, you need to take the damage, so healing is also of importance. For this, you have mechanics, but there are more opportunities for healing in this expansion…
Fleets: Corporate Lords
In Fleets: Corporate Lords the corporations are back with unique traits and ships!
In this expansion to Fleets: The Pleiad Conflict each corporation gains a special ability as well as their own unique escort ship. Two neutral fleets move between the planets; the Pirates are firing their guns at anyone entering the system, while the Trade Convoy allows the players to get extra resources from other systems. The players may also build operation bases where they can recharge and repair (hopefully without too much interruption). The conflict is escalating…

What's in Your Food ……. The good stuff (RED WINE)
I am sure you have heard the word resveratrol.
May be you even know that it is associated with red wine. Can you explain what resveratrol is?
Hopefully you will be able to make a confident statement from now on. Resveratrol is a polyphenol that is found only in red wine. A polyphenol is a particular set of anti-oxidant. Anti-oxidants are found in some form in most fruits and vegetables, and help to clean up free radicals in the body. It is like using lemon to clear up rust build up.
The foods richest in anti-oxidants are mostly the ones with dark red, blue and black colors.

The French people are known for consuming a higher rate of saturated fat and also smoking, yet they maintain a lower rate of heart disease as compared to Britain and the USA.. This has been attributed to their regular consumption of red wine.
These benefits of red wine are apparently not found in white wine, as the compounds are in the red skin and seeds of red grapes.
Research indicates that some of the benefits of red wine can be obtained in purple grape juice, but apparently the process of fermentation in making wine produces probiotics which, accentuates the compounds, and gives wine additional benefits.
There are several varieties of red wine.
To start with, red grapes are also come in many varieties.
Some Red Grape varieties are: Merlot, Barbera, Dolcetto, Nebbiolo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Syrah and more.
These are some of the different kinds of red wine made from red and dark grapes.
Barbera is an Italian wine, and can be medium bodied to intense but always robust and fruity.
Barbaresco is another Italian wine that grows in flavor and price as it is aged, but must be aged for at least 2 years.
Barolo is considered one of Italy's greatest wines. Barolos must be made from 100% Nebbiolo grapes.
Bordeaux can range from everyday wines to very expensive varieties. They are made from 5 or more varieties of red and black grapes.
If you want to learn more about red wines visit this website. http://www.thewineandvine.com/Reds.htm
Full bodies red wines that have been aged in oak, are believed to contain more anti-oxidant strength.
So go ahead and enjoy a small quantity of red wine from time to time. You don't have to wait to have red meat to do so. (remember that old standard)?
Be careful though, Too much of a good thing can be bad. Everyone agrees that the benefits of red wine can be undone by over doing it.
If you are a wine enthusiast, you can join this group by a medical Dr. about wine and its benefits. https://www.facebook.com/DontDrinkTooMuchButDontDrinkTooLittle
If you are pregnant, or think you may be pregnant, no amount of alcohol is considered safe.
Here is a fun little poem about red wine for your enjoyment.
Red Wine
A little bit of red wine
Can help you to unwind
At the end of the day-
If Jesus drank it
you know
it has to be okay'
A little sip or two
and you're starting to feel
a little woozie inside
that tingle up your spine
puts a smile in your mind
now you're feeling fine.
You're a mellow fellow
when the world gets rosey
and you're getting cozy
with your best friend.
It's okey
if you have a little drink
you might start to find
life is as fine
as red wine.

text: What comes to your mind when you hear the word "missionary"? For most of us, it represents one who goes overseas and starts or helps in a ministry. These people are definitely needed. But what many American Christians do not realize is that there are plenty of opportunities for someone to give the gospel to those we see at work every day-our neighbors and many others at a variety of places. It seems that many Christians do not have much of a concern for these types of people, the ones in our own backyard who we have contact with frequently. These people need to be reached with the gospel. I think that because these types of people aren't reached is why our society is turned away from God. Maybe Christians could reevaluate their strategy in missions and spend more time sharing the gospel to our own culture and maybe even the nearest urban environment, which are places that tend to be the most godless. If the ones who we know are reached with the gospel, maybe our backyard will be strong enough to reach other places farther away.

I have had my HP Office Jet L7780 for 5 months and knew not to install the software from the box, but to download from the HP website due to technical difficulties. However, all of the sudden my scanner is not recognized so I uninstalled and reinstalled the software. The printer does not show up under my Printer Folder and the HP Solution Center will not load because it says No HP Device found. I have done everything...must have reinstalled 25 times already and wasted four hours on the phone talking to tech in India from HP who just had me going around in the same circles. Found a website that had 12 pages of people relating the same problems I have. Seems there is a glitch in their programming of syncing between HP and Windows. What a mess. They should fix it by now. Since it once worked, I am thinking that they have put a different download on the website from what I originally used??? I'm over it! I bought a two year extended warranty through Best Buy so I'm going to try to take it back.
I also had problem getting a complete install of the software. It is installed now though. I talked to the tech guys and and made it plain that i did not plug in the USB right off the bat. They had me 1st uninstall ALL of the old HP printer and scanner products. Then I had to empty all of the stuff in the temp files that I could. Then we looked at the fact that I was using Internet Explorer 8, which I had to remove. Removing that proved to be only half done though until the pc just happened to do an automatic update when I was taking a well deserved break after 8 hours of working on the issue. Problem solved though......the software is installed completely. bjmoore

I spent 24 hours with tech support for this same printer. The printer will not set up by the book, the level 2 techs have tech bulletin that they will give you the proper set up and installation process. The problem is convincing the lower level techs that there is a tech bulletin out there.
Posted on May 06, 2008
Very easy..... first do not connect ur printer to ur pc..install driver until installation complete...than restart ur pc than connect ur printer...will thank on this... hahaha

SOURCE: Problem installing HP printer all in one not solved-transscript below-PLEASE HELP!!
Can't you just uninstall all hp software. Eventually do a system restore to a date before you installed drivers. And then installing back your software.
If this does not work you may need to reinstall windows.
At least this is what I would do in my shop.
If it does not work, it means there is an additional problem apart software setup unsuccessful (eg. bad usb cable etc.)
Ah yes, before doing all this do an hard reset (disconnect power cable 20 mins), usb suffer problems from electrostatic charges.

$30/lesson for weekly payment option OR
discounted $342 for 12 week payment option
Skype Instruction 30 (30 minute private lesson conducted weekly via Skype with Mrs. Q)
The classes listed in this column are only offered during the summer - discount is given to current On Q Piano students
Introduction to Music Class
1 student: $10/class
2 or more students from same household: $8/class

Payment is due on the day of the lesson each week. I accept cash, check or credit card payments via the Square Cash app. You can pay your invoice directly at http://cash.me/$piano (Square Cash).
Parents are asked to purchase the books the student(s) will be using for lessons. I receive a discount on the materials and pass that on to the parents. There are other supplementary books available to borrow from my lending library for all levels to enrich the student's learning experience, build confidence, improve technique, and make learning more fun which I will recommend but you are not required to purchase them.
We also have a FREE box filled with music that you are welcome to look through.
I provide each student with an assignment sheet at each lesson. The sheet contains a list of songs, exercises, scales, and anything else covered during the lesson with specific goals for the student to accomplish during the week at home.
Unlike some private music instructors, I actually prefer a parent staying for the lesson. This gives the parent the opportunity to clearly see how their child is progressing and where they may need improvement. I do ask that if a parent stays that he/she respect the time we have for a lesson though. I'm more than happy to talk and answer any questions or concerns after the lesson is over. If we cannot talk after the lesson, you're welcome to call or email me as well.
Teaching is such a rewarding career and something that I truly have passion for. Unfortunately (and rarely) I will have to dismiss a student if any of the following occurs on a regular basis:
- Uncooperative attitude
- Disrespect in any form
- Lack of progress due to insufficient practice and/or failure to complete theory assignments
- Poor attendance
I do my best to work with the parent and student to fix the situation before dismissal. I firmly believe that lessons are not beneficial to any party if any of the above occurs regularly.

No Resemblance Whatsoever
By: Dan Fogelberg and Tim Weisberg
Type: Light Jazz/Rock
Hot Tracks:
- Forever Jung
- Todos Santos
- The Face of Love
- Windward
It's been twenty years since Dan Fogelberg and Tim Weisberg blurred the boundaries of rock and jazz with Twin Sons of Different Mothers, proving that an artist need not be bound to one form of music. Since that time, light jazz/rock has become a complete radio format all its own, and this album should find a happy home there. That is where Fogelberg gets most of his airplay these days, and although his catalog covers everything from electric rock to jazz to bluegrass, he seems to have accepted his niche happily.
The supporting members of the band are solid, featuring strong studio musicians Neil Stubenhaus (bass), Michael Landau (electric guitar), Larry Cohn (keys) and Vinnie Colaiuta (drums). Fogelberg demonstrates his musical acumen on a variety of instruments, as usual, and seems to have been influenced vocally by Aaron Neville recently. (If you don't find this to be appealing, you may want to avoid this version of "Sunlight.")
Weisberg, though not very much in the spotlight recently, has lost none of his smooth, fluid flute skill. His style still complements Fogelberg's compositions well, and more than makes up for the Neville-style vocals on "Sunlight."
This album doesn't feature any songs as energetic as "Power of Gold," from Twin Sons, but that is not surprising. Fogelberg's current audience seems to be composed mainly of light rock listeners, so harder songs might not have the appeal that they might have once had for him. I'm sure both musicians are still capable of rocking out on occasion, but that was not the intent of this album.
It is good to see that whatever legal or personality conflicts existed between these two virtuosos has passed. Any conflict that robs people of the product of these two talents is to be avoided at all costs.
This album is excellent to play by firelight, in romantic situations or any time that you just wish to unwind and relax. Sit back, close your eyes, and let the strains of Tim Weisberg's flute carry your troubles away on the air.

SLAUGHTER BEACH – The DuPont Nature Center at Mispillion Harbor Reserve has closed for the winter, and will reopen Friday, April 1, 2016 for the spring and summer seasons. The center is owned and operated by DNREC's Division of Fish & Wildlife.
The DuPont Nature Center closes during the winter months when there is less public use of the center, which makes better use of the limited federal Sport Fish Restoration Funds which help the center operate. Cost savings from the winter closure supports aquatic education programs during spring and summer when public programs and visitation are in most demand.
Federal Sport Fish Restoration Funds also support construction and maintenance of public boat ramps and fishing piers throughout the state, as well as a variety of the Division of Fish & Wildlife's Fisheries research, monitoring and management programs.
Perched on the edge of Mispillion Harbor at the intersection of the mouths of the Mispillion River and Cedar Creek, the DuPont Nature Center at Mispillion Harbor Reserve offers a variety of interactive exhibits, school tours and educational programs. In the spring, its location offers wildlife watchers a front-row seat for the spring spectacle of spawning horseshoe crabs and migrating shorebirds, including the red knot, that depend on horseshoe crab eggs to help fuel their 9,000-mile journey. A Delaware Division of Fish & Wildlife facility, the center is located at 2992 Lighthouse Road, east of Milford. Admission is free and open to the public. For more information about the DuPont Nature Center and its programs, please call 302-422-1329 or visit http://de.gov/dnc.

Ready to relive all the fun and excitement had during race weekend? Press play and watch the 2015 highlight video. You'll get an up close glimpse of what a Rock 'n' Roll Savannah race weekend looks like. Spoiler alert: it includes an incredible showing of love and support from the local community; live bands playing their hearts out to motivate runners covering one mile courses on up to 26.2 miles; cheer squads of friends, families, neighborhoods and boroughs, all there to have a good time and spread the rock 'n' roll spirit.
Race weekend kicked off at the two-day Health & Fitness Expo which took place inside the Savannah International Trade & Convention Center where runners pick up their race day necessities and sample the latest and best trends and retailers in the running industry. Then things get serious as folks toe the Start Line in historic downtown Savannah for the marathon and 1/2 marathon on Saturday. Sunday ushers in the short distance challenge where runners took on the 5K and 1 Mile fun runs to bring a successful close to the 5th annual Rock 'n' Roll Savannah event.

1.) There seems to be two Sam-centered episodes in a row. I much preferred when they stuck with them having every other episode as their centric episode.
2.) It would be a lot more funnier if Dean and Sam were to switch bodies with eachother, just to see how they would act as one another onscreen. But, I guess with this episode, we can have our hopes of an episode like this involving Dean(my hopes are that he switches bodies with a female...it just makes sense seeing as how he's the normal "guy"...who watches Oprah, lol).

Students of various institutions across the country have expressed enthusiasm on the probing of the Industrial Training Fund (ITF) over the nonpayment of students' allowances as claimed by the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS).
Most students expressed their grievances as they have been tricked to believe they would be paid over the years. It was alleged that ITF has looted and diverted their entitlements making them suffer.
It would be recalled that the office of the Senate President, NANS wrote demanding the full probe of the ITF for the continued non-payment of SIWES allowance from 2010-2015.
NANS condemned the act and called on the Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for a full probe. The rigorous investigation across institutions in Nigeria showed that there is a systemic fraud being perpetuated at the ITF National Headquarters, Jos, Plateau State in partnership with the respective ITF offices in each state of the federation.
It was alleged that each state has over the years, diverted the earned stipend under the pretense of inaccurate bank details. They are said to have connived with commercial banks anchoring the SIWES Allowance payment, and any bank found guilty in the unethical practice would be duly sanctioned.
NANS gave a two-week ultimatum for the immediate payment of all outstanding SIWES allowance from 2010 – 2015. Its failure would result to the mobilization of a coordinated protest at the various ITF offices across all campuses in every state including their national headquarters to air their grievances.
ENCOMIUM Weekly spoke to students as they expressed their opinions on the non-payment of their allowances over the years…
ADEBAYO OLUWASEUN – I did mine in 2011, nothing has been paid. I wonder the kind of diversion they have been doing in the scheme. Thank God they have been exposed. The sanctions should be effected with immediate effect.
TOSIN ANUOLUWAPO – This is nothing but corruption of the highest order. They have embezzled our entitlements and made us suffer.
PRAISE AUGUSTINE – We shouldn't embrace corruption. I did my IT in 2005, did all necessary documentation yet they haven't paid me. Thank you NANS for bringing this issue to the public domain. EFCC should probe them.
DAMILOLA ADELEKE – They should probe every high ranking staff in ITF. Mine has been long overdue. I did my SIWES in 2013 and since then, they haven't paid.
EUNICE OGBONNA – They should be probed immediately. It has been more than eight years and I never received a dime. They are heartless and kleptomaniacs.
AWE GBEMISOLA – I did mine in 2011, nothing has been paid. I wonder the kind of diversion they have been doing in that scheme. Thank God they have been exposed. I pray they pay me as soon as possible.

USAA did the same to me...had a few things on my list of offers, denied me a CC and offered me a secured card instead. Multiple times.
Now I am one that thinks these are a ripoff waste of money. I am not going to pay interest and fees to use my own money. To me it is a debit card that charges me to use it, and reports you for the expense. I had plenty of unsecured credit that reported and did not need them. Even the worst credit on the planet can probably qualify for the 300 C1 unsecured...I think it used to be Orchard.
Not pleased with NFCU as I am the only one they won't increase, though my ute is quite high. They last approved me when my ute was much higher, though, and my income was one third what it is today. That was pre 2008 crash though. However I would pick them over USAA any day.
Shopping for insurance (USAA is still comparable to everyone I looked at so far) but may switch all other accounts (small savings/checking, IRA) but the minimum in savings to NFCU.
I was denied for a CL increase on one of my CCs from USAA. I had never checked or known my own credit scores until I got the denial letter from USAA. My score was over 800 (EQ) at that time! On the same day, right after they denied me for the CL increase, I applied for NFCU's cashRewards card and was approved instantly with the lowest rate possible. By the way, I got the Visa Sig version.

IMHO, NFCU is easier to work with, and they can usually give you what you need over the phone. I have moved all of my banking over to them Happily

Why I Will Never, Ever, EVER Get a Tattoo
Would I have to start planning outfits around the tattoo like I plan for weather?
It's that time again because it's always that time again at this time on a Sunday afternoon. That's the beauty of a regular feature, right?
Our first Comment of the Week is a cry for more information -- a cry with which many of us sympathized even though the story sounds like one of those situations where you just might never get all the info -- from DaneDane on "IT HAPPENED TO ME: A Guy Died While I Was Making Out With Him":
Our next COTW comes from artemis_of_the_interwebz and can be found on "IT HAPPENED TO ME: My Boyfriend Broke Up With Me During Christmas At My Family's House":
Has that "I want to be alone" line worked for anyone other than Greta Garbo? And she just meant that she didn't want to be at the mercy of other people pestering her, I think.
My personal favorite comment this week is from BobcatVelveteen, who has a way with words over on "WWJD: Jane Analyzes Your Boyfriend's Used Condom":
Where there's jizz, there's fire. Words to live by.
Instead of listing another comment, I'm going to do something a little different and highlight an article I really enjoyed. This week, it's "I Throw Up Every Time I Brush My Teeth" -- I hope you'll read it if you haven't already because it's not as simple as you might think it is from the title.
Now it's time to face another week. I hope it's as sweet as these cupcakes. Tell me what you're looking forward to -- and I'll see you right here next weekend.

5.) Describe a favorite Halloween costume or moment you wish you had on video.
I have just one favorite Halloween costume, which is amazing for several reasons. By all logic it should have been one of my least favorite costumes and instead it is the one that sticks in my mind with the most emotional impact all these years later. The story begins ...
It was Halloween and I was in the first grade. We were living in a small town in Nebraska, a town with a population of less than 350 including the dogs, pigs, and cats. That kind of a small town. But, being that small had its advantages. The only restaurant in town hosted an annual Halloween event, Hot Chocolate and Treats, on the eve of Halloween. Not only could a kid collect the loot from one place, drink hot cocoa, and see everyone's costumes, there was a contest with actual prizes!
In anticipation of the evening, I worked hard on the costume of my dreams. I was fascinated by robots, so a robot I was to be. You'd be amazed what one can do with oodles of cardboard boxes, buttons, paint, tape and imagination. In my mind I pictured the costume as looking a bit like this picture, sans the cigar and engineering refinements.
On the eve of the contest i was excited. All my friends from school were there and we were all anxious to see what each others costumes were like. It was a period when cowboy costumes were all the rage, so there were a heck of a lot of cowboys present. Likewise princesses. Astronauts were still new in the pantheon of heroes; I don't remember a single astronaut in the crowd.
After the excitement of collecting loot and the costume judging (I didn't win), it was time to gather up a cup of hot chocolate and sit down at a booth to drink it. It was at that point it became clear that neither activity was going to be possible in my costume. In no way, shape, or form could I carry a cup of hot chocolate in costume without spilling it. And even if I could, there was no possibility of folding my boxed form into a booth. To make things even trickier, I had taped my costume on in a one way entry configuration. The only way to take it off meant it was off for good and that it was not an easy task to remove it.
I waffled about for a bit and finally decided that it was worth it to rip off the arms and torso so I could sit down and have that wonderfully aromatic hot chocolate. Did I mention that the diner was quite crowded with all of us munchkins running loose? Did I also mention that the diner used glass cups stacked high on trays for serving the cocoa? Have you figured out what happened next?
That's right. Rip, wing, crash. Pretty much in that order and suddenly there were literally what seemed to me to be hundreds of broken cups all over the floor. You can see why I said that it defied all logic as to why I regarded this as my favorite costume. Most favorite costumes do not star in a disaster of such proportions.
But the chaos of the disaster was quickly forgotten because of the wonderful way the incident was handled by the restaurant owners (whose son was in my class and at the contest as well) and their staff. No recriminations, no scolding, no blame: only a kindly helping hand in removing the costume, getting me some coca, and getting me sat down. I often think back to that evening and have a wonderful warm glow because of the way the adults around me handled the situation. It makes me wonder what my memories and feelings would have been had the adults reacted in the fashion I see so often: with recrimination and blame.
So there you have it, my favorite costume. It is my favorite not because it was a great costume, not because I especially liked it, but because I have some really great memories of kindness associated with it.
P.S. For those who read yesterday's post, I was almost right. It rained until about 2pm and then started snowing. It has been snowing off and on all night and is predicted to really kick in tomorrow with 50 mph winds. Nothing like early blizzard white-out conditions to make sure you think winter is really on its way.

|Lead* Candidates
in ballot paper order (* first candidate in group)
The Questionnaire
We have produced a Questionnaire that asks candidates where they stand on 20 key Blue Mountains environmental issues. The Questionnaire was sent to all "lead" candidates and we now share their response with you.
The candidates' response are provided for each ward - so an easy comparison can be made for that ward's candidates.WARD 1 - WARD 2 - WARD 3 - WARD 4
We have also provided a SUMMARY with our comments.
Report Card
How's the Council performed (environmentally) over the past 4 years?
We have assessed their performance based on our questionnaire from the last election.
Here's our REPORT CARD
BMCC Map and WardsThe Blue Mountains City Council area is divided into 4 wards.
Each ward is represented by 3 Councillors.
Ward 1: Mt Victoria to Leura
Ward 2: Wentworth Falls - West Faulconbridge
Ward 3: Faulconbridge to Valley Heights
Ward 4: Warrimoo to Lapstone (incl. Mt Riverview)
Here's a map of the wards.
Questionnaire Response - SUMMARY
We asked the 19 lead* candidates across the 4 wards, 20 questions on key Blue Mountains environmental issues.
[* first candidate in group] We also asked them to provide a statement of their personal conservation values.
The Questionnaire we sent can be found here .
A collation of the responses has been compiled for each ward with a link to each candidate's response. The responses are not interpreted in these collations.WARD 1 - WARD 2 - WARD 3 - WARD 4
The combined details of all responses can be found HERE .
The overwhelming positive responses to the questions asked indicate a high level of support among candidates for environmental issues. As a City within a World Heritage Area we need an environmentally responsible and proactive local Council.
- 18 of the 19 candidates responded.
- Only Jim Carothers (Ward 1 - Independent) didn't respond.
- One of the highlights is the candidate's brief statement of their "personal conservation values".
- Only Brendan Christie (Ward 4 - Liberal) didn't provide their "personal conservation values"
- In total, 94% of responses to a question was "Yes".
- While only 3% of responses to a question was "No".
(Q.12) - Opposing the SP3 Special Tourist Zone
- 13 candidates oppose the SP3 Special Tourist Zone, with a further 2 providing qualified opposition.
- The Liberal candidates in Wards 2, 3 and 4 support the SP3 Special Tourist Zone.
Note: The Society is opposed to the introduction of the SP3 Special Tourism Zone in the Mountains, as current intensive tourism sites such as Scenic World are operating successfully under existing zonings and the zone is not appropriate in the Blue Mountains.
The Society is strongly opposed to the zone being applied to areas where small scale tourism is currently occurring, such as the Blackheath Caravan Park, as recently proposed by Council.
For more information on the Society's position on the SP3 Special Tourist Zone, see the article in the May 2016 Hut News.
(Q.6) - Dealing with waste
There are differing views among candidates about to how to deal with waste into the future. The idea of introducing financial incentives to encourage residents to compost is not supported by any Liberal candidates and some Labor (Don McGregor).
(Q.1) - Funding of Bushcare and Bush regeneration
While maintaining the existing budget to support volunteer Bushcare was supported,
not all Liberal and Labor candidates supported an increase in the Bushcare budget.
(Q.8) - Ensure all the existing environmental protection measures currently included in the Blue Mountains Local Environmental Plan 2015 (LEP 2015) are not undermined or removed in future amendments.
All candidates supported this.
(Q.9) - Oppose the State Government imposing a new housing target on the Blue Mountains
- All candidates oppose the State Government imposing a new housing target on the Blue Mountains.
(Q.11) - Protect the built heritage and large garden and bushland lots of the Blue Mountains townships by supporting the village precinct objectives and proposed R6 Residential Character Conservation Zone in LEP 2015.
- All but one candidate supported the R6 Residential Character Conservation Zone in LEP 2015.
- Ward 2 Independent Rob Thompson says that the State Government has made it clear that they will simply will not allow BMCC to have a non standard R6 zone. So we need to support village precinct objectives being enshrined in existing Development Control Plans.
(Q.13) - Opposing Coal Seam Gas, Nuclear Waste and Badgerys Creek Airport
To the question prefaced with "Will you publicly and strongly support Council's current position opposing -"
- All candidates oppose Coal Seam Gas exploration and extraction in the Local Government Area.
- All candidates oppose the transport of nuclear waste through the Blue Mountains.
- All but one candidate opposes the building of an airport at Badgerys Creek.
- Ward 2 Independent Rob Thompson believes efforts at opposing the airport would be better directed at lobbying for a high speed east coast rail link.

Democratic U.S. Sen. Bob Casey had eight times as much campaign money as 2018 began compared to his best-funded potential Republican challenger, U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta, according to their latest campaign finance reports.
The large gap could fuel questions about Barletta's ability to raise enough money to compete, but Barletta said he isn't worried.
"I'm pretty well on pace" with past Senate race challengers, he said.
Casey's campaign committee, Bob Casey for Senate Inc., wrapped up 2017 by raising $2,602,989 in the final quarter and finished with a cash balance of $8,657,797.
Barletta, R-11, Hazleton, a fourth-term lawmaker, had one of his best fundraising quarters ever since he first ran for Congress in 2002. His campaign committee, Lou Barletta for Senate, netted $489,683 in contributions and raised a total of $530,918. He ended the year with $1,065,495.
Two years ago, Democratic Senate candidate Katie McGinty reported ending 2015 with $1,162,688 before her 2016 run against Republican Sen. Pat Toomey. Toomey finished that fourth quarter with $9,579,017.
Barletta's cash balance was slightly lower than McGinty's then, but McGinty raised twice as much in her 2015 final quarter, $979,827, than Barletta did in 2017's fourth quarter. McGinty's campaign committee began Aug. 4, 2015; Barletta's started Aug. 29, 2017, according to online Federal Election Commission records.
Franklin & Marshall College political analyst G. Terry Madonna said Barletta still has to prove his fundraising prowess. With so many competitive House and Senate races across the country and political analysts still viewing Casey as a likely winner, Barletta could struggle to raise money as donors pick tighter races, he said.
"His biggest problem right now is Barletta has to convince the big donors, especially the PACs (political action committees), that he is making the race competitive," Madonna said. "If he can do that, I think the money will pour in."
Barletta attributed his fourth-quarter fundraising to Congress spending most of November and December in Washington D.C., limiting his ability to raise money. He pointed out McGinty had to raise more money because she faced a competitive Democratic Senate primary in 2016, against former congressman Joe Sestak.
Barletta faces a contested May 15 primary election, but his toughest challenger, state Rep. Jim Christiana, lags greatly in fundraising and support among Republican state committee members. Four regional Republican state committee caucuses weighed in on endorsing and Barletta received 189 of the 222 votes cast. Christiana, whose fourth-quarter fundraising was not immediately available, had only about $73,000 at the end of September.
Barletta said money won't be a problem because independent political action committees and nonprofit groups will fill in any financial gap between him and Casey.
"This will be one of the most expensive races in the country," he said.
David Feidt, the Dauphin County Republican chairman who supports Barletta, agreed.
"I'm more than confident he can match anything (Casey has) when it comes decision-making time in the fall," Feidt said.
State Democratic Party spokesman Max Steele portrayed Barletta's campaign as facing "serious trouble."
"Pennsylvania Republican elected officials are right to worry that Congressman Barletta's toxic brand of politics will cost the GOP in November," Steele said in an email.

Here's a lovely fall wedding that I have been really excited to share. This one was so much fun for me, because as a floral designer- I was able to look at this event from a creative perspective. How amazing to get to design two bridal bouquets at once, it's like a dream come true for me! We wanted them to coordinate, and yet reflect the personality of both brides, to feel unique to each woman. Two brides with their own style and spectacularly great taste? Bring it on!
The images are gorgeous, and their video (by One Tree Studio) is just a true testament to the love here. Please watch it (link below)- promise it will make you cry! :)
The watermarked images from the reception are from M&E Photography, and you can see more here. Go check it out- they were introduced by The KC Falcons Drum Corps at the entrance to their reception at Amigoni Winery, so much joy and so much fun! All other images are by photographer David Eulitt.
