Social Media News You Need to Know: May 2016 Roundup
May 2016 shall go down in social media history as the month when Instagram rolled out a brand-new, rainbow-hued logo (much to the chagrin of many users).
But that wasn't all that happened in May. Twitter announced significant changes to its 140-character limit and Facebook made a bunch of changes to its advertising platform Audience Network.
Without any further ado, check out our roundup of all the social media news that's fit to print for May 2016.
Switched categories in the app store
This month Twitter made a small, but potentially significant move: the app is no longer categorized as "Social Networking" in the iOS App Store. Twitter can now be found in the "News" app category instead.
Connect tab
On May 3, Twitter introduced the Connect tab, which will provide users with a detailed list of people and accounts that Twitter thinks they'd enjoy following. Ricardo Castro, product manager, explained in the announcement blog post: "To give you the best recommendations—which we'll continue to refine over time—we look at who you already follow, Tweets you like, popular accounts in your local area, what's happening in the world right now, and more. We'll also let you know exactly why we're showing you each recommendation."
The Connect tab also gives users the option to automatically sync their address book to find people they already know on Twitter. The Connect tab is available on iOS and Android.

Ads in embedded timelines
On May 17, Twitter added the ability for publishers to run ads in embedded timelines. The beta test allows publishers to display MoPub ads directly in Twitter Kid timelines on both iOS and Android. Mollie Vandor, senior product manager, explained in a blog post: "This doesn't just open up a new canvas for you to monetize; we've also taken care of all the ad rendering, so you don't have to worry about performance or how to display the ads." Publishers could previously run ads on the same page, but not within the embedded timeline itself. Ads will match the theme and color preferences set by each publisher in Twitter Kit.

Express more in 140 characters
On May 24, Twitter announced several changes to what counts towards users' 140 characters. Changes include:
- In the case of replies, @names will no longer count as characters. Note that this is only in replies—@names still count as characters when used as mentions in regular Tweets.
- Media attachments—photos, GIFs, videos, polls, or Quote Tweets—will no longer count as characters.
- Users can now Retweet and Quote Tweet themselves.
- Now regular Tweets (not replies) that begin with @names will appear in users' main feed, eliminating the need for the ".@" convention.
The updates will be available "over the coming months." We wrote about why Twitter's latest changes are a bigger deal that you think.
In the coming months, we're introducing new ways for you to express even more with a Tweet: https://t.co/l1sWRvXWqr pic.twitter.com/zzhWpRcABs

Discovery tool for Groups
Fast Company reported that Facebook is piloting a new Groups Discover tool, which "makes it easier for users to find new Groups to join, based on their interests." With the feature, users can browse both public and closed Groups by category. Admins of private Groups will be able to decide whether their Group appears in the Discover tool. In addition to browsing by category, users can also look for Groups that their friends belong to or ones that are geographically near them. The feature is rolling out on iOS and Android in the U.S.
New ad options
On May 10, Facebook added new ad options. They expanded functionality for Dynamic ads (adding the ability to create Dynamic ads for travel) and added advanced capabilities to Custom Audiences from websites. The Custom Audience updates will allow advertisers to "differentiate between and connect with visitors who display different types of behaviors on their website." New targeting options include: frequency, time spent (taking a particular action, such as exploring a site or viewing a specific page), dynamic date, aggregated values, and devices.
Video adverts included in Audience Network
On May 16, Facebook extended the Audience Network to include videos from advertisers. The Facebook for Business blog post explained: "Now, in addition to watching these videos on Facebook and Instagram, people will view them in the other apps and sites where they spend their time." The Audience Network will deliver ads in two formats: in-stream and in-article. In-stream video ads will play before, during, or after video content in third-party apps and on mobile and desktop sites (see example below). In-article video ads will appear within the mobile pages of publishers and will autoplay when at least half of the pixels are viewable and viewers must opt-in for sound.
Changes to Audience Network
On May 26, Facebook announced changes to expand the reach of the Audience Network. The change means the Audience Network can "show Facebook-powered adverts to people who don't have Facebook accounts." It will also help advertisers "measure the results of their campaigns more extensively and provide people with greater control over the adverts that they see."
The announcement blog post explained: "These changes enable businesses to connect with more people who may be interested in their products and services, while helping to make adverts better for people. Businesses will not need to take any action when creating adverts or campaigns to take advantage of this extended reach."
Videos in comments
On May 17, Venture Beat reported that Facebook is experimenting with adding videos in comments. In select (unspecified) countries, some users have the ability to post a clip to respond to a status update. A spokesperson told Venture Beat that the test is part of an effort to "give people different tools to share fun, expressive content with their friends on Facebook." Facebook says that videos in comments will function the same as videos published as main posts. They won't auto-play. The test applies to Facebook's iOS and Android apps as well as on the web.
You can now add #video to comments on #Facebook posts! pic.twitter.com/ZIeKJvQQPj

New logo and design
On May 11, Instagram introduced a brand new logo and app design. The new logo retains the camera, but simplifies the design and lays it over a rainbow gradient. Instagram also updated icons for the rest of its family of apps: Layout, Boomerang, and Hyperlapse. The announcement blog post explains: "Our updated look reflects how vibrant and diverse your storytelling has become."
Instagram's head of design did a deep dive into the inspiration behind change on Medium.
Today we're introducing a new look. You'll see an updated icon and app design for Instagram. Inspired by the previous app icon, the new one represents a simpler camera and the rainbow lives on in gradient form. You'll also see updated icons for our other creative apps: Layout, Boomerang and Hyperlapse. We've made improvements to how the Instagram app looks on the inside as well. The simpler design puts more focus on your photos and videos without changing how you navigate the app. The Instagram community has evolved over the past five years from a place to share filtered photos to so much more — a global community of interests sharing more than 80 million photos and videos every day. Our updated look reflects how vibrant and diverse your storytelling has become. Thank you for giving this community its life and color. You make Instagram a place to discover the wonder in the world. Every photo and video — from the littlest things to the most epic — opens a window for people to broaden their experiences and connect in new ways.
Video carousel ads
At the end of May, Instagram introduced the ability to add video to carousel ads. Advertisers on Instagram can now share a mix of three to five static images and video in the swipeable format. Instagram explained in an announcement blog post: "Adding video to your carousel ads gives customers a richer understanding of your business, product, or app."
Because video carousel ads are also available on Facebook, advertisers can run ads seamlessly across both platforms.
Dynamic ads
Mid-way through May, Instagram announced that Dynamic ads are now available on the platform. The blog post explained: "With new dynamic ads on Instagram, you can promote relevant products to shoppers who have browsed your website or mobile app—driving greater product demand and sales where people spend their time."
If someone visits an advertiser's website, then visits Instagram, "they'll be served an ad featuring multiple, related products from ones they were browsing on [the] site or app."
New Partner Program speciality
At the end of May, Instagram introduced a new specialty to their Partner Program: Media Buying. The Instagram Partner Program, introduced last year, gives advertisers the opportunity to "tap into a set of vetted experts to get help driving business on Instagram." The partners for Media Buying are SocialCode and Resolution Media.
The new speciality joins Instagram's existing roster of Ad Tech, Community Management, and Content Marketing. The Media Buying specialty is currently only available in the U.S. "but will expand to new countries in the future."
Business profiles, analytics, and promotion tools
On May 31, Instagram announced business profiles, analytics, and promotion tools. The new profiles are a free feature for accounts that want to be recognized as a business on the platform. Business profiles give brands the opportunity to choose how they want customers to get in touch (call, text, or email) and provide directions. Businesses will also be given access to Insights, Instagram's new analytics tool, which will provide information about followers and which posts are doing well from within the app. Additionally, Instagram is adding the ability to turn well-performing posts into ads from within the app. The new features will roll out in the U.S., Australia, and New Zealand in the coming months, and will be available in all regions globally by the end of the year.
Affiliate links allowed
On May 12, Pinterest announced that they now allow affiliate links. Adelin Cai explained in the blog post: "We understand that businesses and bloggers need a sustainable way to keep making great content. That's why we've decided to allow affiliate links on Pinterest."
Pinterest had previously removed affiliate links from the site because of abuse from spammers. The network said it'd roll out affiliate networks "over the coming weeks."
Native sharing
On May 11, Wired reported that YouTube is testing a chat feature. Referred to as "native sharing," the feature allows users to chat about a shared video—and reply with another video—inside YouTube's mobile app. The conversation threads will live in a new tab on YouTube's mobile app. Shimrit Ben-Yair, director of product management at YouTube, told Wired that the feature was designed to improve and increase sharing. It is already live for a small percentage of YouTube users who can spread it to their friends by inviting them to conversations.
YouTube VR app for Daydream
On May 19, YouTube announced that a new YouTube VR app for Daydream, Google's platform for high-quality virtual reality on mobile. The app, which was developed "to provide an easier, more immersive way to find and experience virtual reality content on YouTube," includes all of the platform's usual features, such as voice search, discovery, and playlists. Users will be able to see all of YouTube's content on the app, including 16×9 videos, 360-degree footage, and VR in full 3D.
New ad tools
On May 16, LinkedIn rolled out new ads tools and features in Campaign Manager.
Users will be able to restart and archive completed campaigns, save targeting templates for reuse on other campaigns, and increase ad limits for campaigns. They'll also be able to take social actions on Sponsored Content, such as like comments. LinkedIn is also adding a new targeting option under the 'Audience' tab for "years of experience." This feature will be available in June.
One-handed zoom
On May 9, Snapchat introduced the ability to zoom in with one hand. Snapchatters can now zoom by dragging a finger up and away from the capture button. Previously, users had to use two hands: one on the capture button and the other to make make pinch gesture to zoom.

Algorithm rumored
On May 18, Digiday reported that Snapchat is developing an algorithm. Snapchat users currently see all of the posts from all of their Snap Friends. An algorithm could be used to curate content from publishers and brands.
Garett Sloane wrote on Digiday: "It's unclear when it would implement the changes, but publishing sources said Snapchat has been discussing an algorithm that would affect professional accounts since the beginning of the year."
Sources: Snapchat will soon have an algorithm. https://t.co/23iqtiD4tZ
— Digiday (@Digiday) May 18, 2016
GIF post and GIF text
On May 17, Tumblr rolled out GIF posts and the ability to write on GIFs. Now a yellow button denotes the ability to create a GIF post (alongside options such as photo post and quote post). Tumblr also introduced the option to add text to GIFs. The new feature offers three different fonts, "infinite" font sizes, and a range of colors. The features are available on iOS and "Android will be right behind."
Broadcast search, drones, and save
On May 9, Periscope made several announcements. Users will be able to search for broadcasts by title or topic. The search function will also display a list of suggested topics to search for, including #Travel, #Music, and #Food.
Users can now broadcast from a drone, as well as switch back and forth between drone, iPhone, and GoPro footage. This feature is available to iPhone users with a supported DJI drone.
Lastly, Periscope rolled out a public beta giving users the opportunity to save broadcasts and keep them beyond 24 hours. The announcement blog post explained: "Soon, your broadcasts will be automatically saved on Periscope and Twitter with comments and hearts."
Broadcast from a bird's eye view with drones! Available on iOS soon.https://t.co/J3GfdW4JRX
— Periscope (@PeriscopeCo) May 9, 2016
Comment moderation
On May 31, Periscope introduced comment moderation. The new system gives viewers the opportunity to report comments as spam or abuse. Once a comment is reported, a few viewers are randomly selected to vote on if the comment is spam, abuse, or okay. The results of that vote are shown to the voters and if the majority agree that the comment is spam or abuse, then the commenter's ability to comment in that broadcast is temporarily disabled and repeat offences will result in a ban from the remainder of the broadcast. Pericope explained: "We've designed this system to be very lightweight—the entire process… should last just a matter of seconds."

I'm glittering up some food, yet again. I've done it before with my Halloween cookie ornaments, and my glittered chocolate Easter bunny. Well, today it's marshmallows. I really hate to eat marshmallows, but I can't resist buying them. They come in all varieties these day. So instead of eating them, I craft with them.
I used a lot of fun different glitters on these marshmallows, and I'm loving the variety. You can click here {over at twelveOeight} to see my entire post, and get a list of all the glitters and marshmallows I used. I can't tell you have fun these are!! They take just seconds to make, and they are so sweet! I want to put them EVERYWHERE!

The Ministry of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs was created in May, 2005, when the former Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs Department was carved out of the office of the Deputy Governor. It has metamorphosed at different times with different names. Currently the Ministry is called Ministry of Local Government, Community Development and Chieftaincy Affairs. It was created by the present administration at its inception in October, 2014. It is located in the Old Governor's Office along Barracks road, Ado – Ekiti. The Ministry now has six Departments, and three Local Government Inspectorate units and an agency.
Vision and Mission Statements:
The political head of the Ministry is the Honourable Commissioner who attends the State Executive Council meetings and also attends to other political matters concerning the Ministry. The Permanent Secretary is the Head of administration and the Accounting officer of the Ministry. The Chieftaincy Affairs Department is headed by an Executive Secretary. Since the Chieftaincy Affairs Department has an Executive Secretary, the supervision of the Department by the Permanent Secretary is tangential. Other Principal Officers are three Inspectors of Local Governments, who were deployed from the pool of Local Government administrators. Each Local Government Inspector heads a Senatorial district which comprises all the LGs therein. They have offices at Aramoko (Central), Ikere (South) and Ido- Ekiti (North) and report to the Ministry periodically. Moreover, there are Directors, who are the heads of the following Departments,
Affiliated Agencies
The Ministry oversees the execution of road and modern market projects which are on-going at various Local Government Areas of the State. The projects include:-
(i) National Community Development Council of Nigeria
(ii) Quarterly State Community Development Council
(iii) South West Conference of National Community Development Council of Nigeria.
(iv) Annual Conference of Director and Deputy Directors of Community Development Services in Nigeria.

Hello all.
I had an EMG on Monday and was told afterwards that the twitches I have been experiencing are Benign Fasciculation's. Naturally I am pleased that nothing more serious has been identified. Whilst I do not wish to appear to be a hypochondriac If I explain my recent medical history you may understand why I still a have some worries. Be assured I do not wish to be diagnosed with anything else however if I have got something else I would like to know .
April 2003 Suffered 3 or 4 attacks of severe Vertigo, nausea and tinitus when I say attack I mean felling ok one minute and practically unable to walk the next with the effects generally lasting 2-4 hours where I would just lie still then subsiding slowly over the next 2-3 days. Never felt normal afterwards, left with a sense of fatigue weakness (not sure if I mix the 2 up) occasional head pains odd sensations (like a cloud passing overhead/ or someone blowing a balloon up in my head) Also had problem with balance which improved with exercises from the DOC. This was diagnosed as Labrynthitus an infection of the middle ear. Had an MRI that came back clear. This all lasted a couple of months with me continually feeling sick and odd.
Odd sensations seemed to alleviate somewhat over the next few weeks but still never felt good. Had another couple of bouts of attacks where I would simply remain bed or sofa ridden for a day or two. These attacks seemed to increase in severity at one point I wanted my wife to take me to Accident & Emergency (being the considerate sought she didn't as it would have involved waking up our 1 year old) I refused an ambulance as I thought that was slightly over the top and did not want the neighbours to talk. I was very tired since the attack came on at circa 2:30 am with cold sweats vomiting, diahorea mild hallucinations (well I thought I had no hands for a while if that counts) Looking back its quite funny but was bloody scary at the time.
Not sure when I started to notice the twitches I think it was May. Following one of the attacks I began to have occasional fits of retching usually once or twice a day often after coming out of the shower or of the toilet.. This was accompanied by an almost 24/7 feeling of nausea. Did have very slow walking where I would be over taken by octanagerians (no offence intended but frequently they are slow) and still feel my legs are a bit weak?
Have also had pins and needles, some really nasty ones in the testicles have made me want to scream (if I had not been at work I would of). Sometimes get numbness / dead arms whilst sleeping. Cramps and tremors in the hands and feet. Most of these have gone but still get tremors and mild pins and needles. Maybe I am a Hypochondriach?
Maybe because some of the other symptoms have subsided I noticed the twitching more? In Circa June I asked the ENT consultant who had quickly diagnosed me with labrinthytus if I could see a Neuro (he had said he would send me to one if my symptoms persisted anyhow) .
Whilst all this was going on I had also noticed flashing lights in my vision, things moving in the corner of my eye and the occasional minor shakiness in my vision. As I was due for an eye check up I went to an optician who immediately refereed me to my GP who in turn immediately refereed me to an Eye specialist with a Tear in My retina. This has now been successfully treated with laser surgery. Still get the odd flash, shaking and things moving? Thankfully I know the things moving is floaters, the flashes are the fluids in my eye coming away from the retina which can happen (and is the only explanation for the tear in the first place !). Doesn't explain the shakiness but I reckon it could be my eye lid twitches? Just hope the next flash is not the next tear. Sounds odd but to get a physical diagnosis for this was a great help. I was beginning to think I must be going mad and it was all in my head.
Went to see the Neruo day after my laser surgery for the eye. He showed me the letter that he had got from the ENT Consultant which said I had been seeing the ENT specialist regarding tinitus, bad leg and droopy eye lid (there was a posh name for the droopy eye I cant recall it). My main problem when I did see the ENT guy was nausea and vertigo? One of his sentences was incomplete? I have got a droopy eye (have had all my life just a bigger eye lid on one side)/ The ENT had referred me to the neuro for an opinion on my muscle twitches.
The neuro went through my medical history and focused on my muscle twitches (I guess as that what he had been asked to do) . He did a physical examination of reflexes and watched for tremors / twitches sods law none came. He advised a blood test (have not had the results of these yet) and EMG which as I said diagnosed Benign Fasciculation's.
The nausea and retching has subsided not gone (is definitely aggravated by fatigue). Following the EMG on Monday, this Wednesday I woke up with a very saw lower back. I have had lower back muscle problems occasionally before. This seems to have come on for no reason? Could be picking up my child or bending? But went to bed ok and woke up very saw. This has now lasted 3 days and this morning I had a particularly nasty retching fit which has left me with a feeling of something stuck in my throat noticeable all the time particularly when I swallow. Also noticed today at lunchtime as I blew on my coffee (probably doesn't help but I do not have a lot) that my breath trembled like when you are cold having been swimming and your teeth chatter.
Right now I feel tired and weak, usually do, and if I move. Stand up I get a bad pain., slight lump in throat other than that in very good spirits.
What do you think folks? Falling apart?
I had decided after reading this site and others that I must have had Viral Labrinthitus which then caused my Benign Fasciculation's but my bad back and shaky breath has got me rethinking? Are tremors also part of BFS ? can they effect your breathing and make it shaky? If I have something horrible so be it. we are all going to die I know that and nothing will change it. Perhaps deep down its all anxiety related? Maybe my blood tests will show something simple like thyroid problem or diabetes, in a way I kind of hope so? Just want to get on with making the most of my life, perhaps play football again and run round the garden with my child rather than spend time writing really long things like this.
Look forward toyour thoughts ?
Thanks Gaz

RI lays claim to continental shelf -- and rich resources
Opinion in the Jakarta Post, Thu, 07/17/2008 10:10 AM
On June 16, 2008, Indonesia made a submission to the UN Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf (CLCS) regarding its claim to continental shelf rights beyond 200 nautical miles of its coast.
This was done in accordance with Article 76 of the UN Conventions on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). As part of the submission, a coastal state has to delineate the outer limits of its continental shelf.
The above process is commonly recognized as an "extending maritime claim". However, Indonesia is not extending its maritime area, but confirming its limits beyond 200 miles.

Indonesia confirming its extended continental shelf
Commonly, the delineation process is also recognized as 'extending maritime claim', which is not necessary the case. Indonesia is not extending its maritime area, but only confirming its outer limits beyond 200 M. For continental shelf, a coastal state secures sovereign rights for exploration and exploitation, which "do not depend on occupation, effective or notional, or on any express proclamation." (UNCLOS, Article 77)
Indonesia is the twelfth state that submits its ECS after the first submission made by the Russian Federation in 2001. Approaching the deadline of submission on 13 May 2009 for those who ratified UNCLOS before 13 may 1999, many more submissions are coming to the desk of CLCS in New York. Executive summaries of all submissions are available on the website of CLCS for all other states to respond.
After a long preparation, Indonesia finally submitted its ECS to the UN for the area to the north-west of Sumatra. As indicated, it was a partial submission, meaning that Indonesia is planning to make other submissions in the near future. It is anticipated that two more submissions will be made before 13 May 2009: south of Nusa Tenggara and north of Papua. Indonesian team for ECS is now working on technical and non-technical aspects for the two, which require a lot of resources.
With regards to submission deadline, the latest Meeting of States Parties to UNCLOS decided that a coastal state may submit "preliminary information indicative of the outer limits of the continental shelf" together with "a description of the status of preparation and intended date of making a submission" (SPLOS/183). This confirms that a coastal state does not have to provide all supporting data and documents by the deadline (13 May 2009) but instead, can provide preliminary submission or even an indication of submission. All supporting data and documents can be provided at a later time. In this case, the original deadline does not change but the requirement of submission is significantly easier.
Indonesia's submission is the first one made by Asian states and is considered as one of the earliest submissions by developing states. To some extents, the submission can be a good influence for other developing states, which are struggling with technical and financial difficulties. No matter what CLCS' response will be, Indonesia's submission deserves appreciation and is a sign of hope in desperation among developing states.
With regards to Indonesia's submission, one important issue that may raise is the area of ECS submitted. It proposes an ECS of 3915 km², which roughly equals the large of Madura Island. From a sovereign rights perspective, where Indonesia can only utilize natural resources and does not have full sovereignty, such area may seem insignificant. It can easily spark question, why would Indonesia claim such a small area after spending a lot of resources for preparation that took around ten years to accomplish?
To understand the situation, one should know how complicated it is to establish the outer limits of ECS. Article 76 specifies complicated procedure that involves bathymetric and seismic survey (CLCS/11). Even though desktop study might helps in the preliminary process, the real ECS can never be known without real surveys. Technical survey, which is expensive, is required to know precisely whether Indonesia can have ECS. Therefore, after a complicated and expensive process, the size of claim should not stop Indonesia from making a submission. In addition, the current submission is only one of the total three potential submissions.
Furthermore, ECS is a future investment. Prescott (2008), an internationally-renowned maritime boundary expert, states that "we must take the long view". At present, we might not know what lies beneath, but we can always expect something precious in the future. Furthermore, this is a good opportunity for Indonesia to confirm its sovereign rights as it will be final and binding, once the delineation is made on the basis of CLCS' recommendation. If it is not now, Indonesia may lose the opportunity.
What can Indonesia expect from the extension? No detailed research has been done to the proposed area so that it is too early to judge. However, in theory, there are a lot of potential resources in and on the seabed, both living and non living. Oil and gas are two traditional resources that can be explored. Furthermore, the deep seabed is unique environment where organisms with special characteristics live. The behavior, process and activities they demonstrate can be subjects of researches that may be useful for human being. In short, a coastal state can make use of any living and non-living organisms that live on (attached) or under the surface of the seabed.
To sum up, the submission of ECS by Indonesia is good news for other developing states, which are currently preparing their submissions. It can also be a positive motivation, to an extent. It also brings hopes for Indonesia in the future for any potential resources to harvest. However, we can not hold our breath since there is still a long way before CLCS can make recommendation on the submission. Let us hope for good result.

The great thing about being a wedding photographer is that I get to do my job in some fantastic locations while at the same time being part of a very special occassion and being surrounded by people who are in great form, all combining to give me a very pleasant working atmosphere which is the envy of many. I have been lucky enough to ply my trade at some fantastic wedding venues and so I will try to review as many of these hotels as best I can. Please forgive me if alot of the review cames across moreso from a photographer's viewpoint rather than that of a guest but you have to remember that I spend most of my day on location with a camera pressed up against my nose. :-)
This week I want to talk about a recent wedding I shot at The Station House Hotel in Kilmessan, Co Meath. Pamela and Karl were the happy couple on the day. Having met with them on a few occassions before the wedding itself I took a spin out to the hotel to do a recce of the grounds to get a good idea of the best locations for photos as well as to check out the lighting conditions etc. I met with the banquetting manager, Sarah who could not have been more helpful. Sarah took time out to show me all the prime spots for photo opportunities of which there were many.
The Station House Hotel would be well known as a premier location for outdoor weddings and I was not disappointed with the many choices available to me. There is a beautiful outdoor reception area between the main bar and the function room where guests can mingle and enjoy a drink in the sunshine or under the warmth of outdoor heaters if it is a bit on the cool side. Sarah then took me to the Signal Box which has been converted into a beautiful and very unique Bridal Suite. This is a very quaint building and extremely picturesque which is ideal for photographs.
From there we went to the Carriage Room. This is an old building which as the name suggests, once housed train carriages which would have been brought in for maintainence etc. The building has been lovingly restored and is now the main function room. With its exposed stone walls and tall windows this room really is a beautiful location to host any wedding reception.
But it is outdoors where I think The Station House really comes into its own. There is a wooded area which to describe as enchanting simply does not do it justice. Pamela and Karl had opted for an outdoor civil ceremony (in February!) and there was a magical feel to the whole thing as the guests made their way along the winding path in the woods lit by lanterns to an opening which reminded me of a fantasy fairy ring. This was beautifully decorated by the hotel staff with seating laid out in the sunken circular arena. Again from a photographer's viewpoint I was seduced by the sunlight weaving its way through the trees and hav ing a forest as a backdrop made for some very unusual and romantic images from the ceremony.
Adjacent to the forest the Station House boasts beautifully manicured gardens which were ideal for the formal photographs. With a variety of seating and other natural props close to hand we were able to capture plenty of great group shots. All of this was close enough to the bar that everyone was able to sit and relax when they werent needed for photographs and also made it easier for the guests to grab their own candid snaps as we set up the different group dynamics.
Once this part of the day was completed myself and the bride and groom then took a walk through the grounds where we proceeded to get some fabulous shots, some candid and some posed. There seemed to be an abundance of brilliant locations and props at every turn from love seats to winding tracks to archways and then at the rear of the garden is an old stone railway bridge with ivy overhanging the archway which, with the use of some off camera flash lighting, we got some stunning portrait images.
At this point it was time to let the bride and groom get away from me and my camera and let them enjoy their day with their guests who were by now nicely settled in the bar or out on the patio enjoying some beautiful springtime sunshine. The atmosphere created by these stunning grounds was very laid back and it was clear that everyone was by now very relaxed in their surroundings. The bar staff were excellent and nothing was too much trouble for them. I got to sample some of the nibbles on offer and I have to say the food was excellent.
Having spent some time taking informal and candid snaps of the guests enjoying their day it was soon time for everyone to be seated in The Carriage Room and the new Bride and groom to be announced into the room and seated at the top table. This was handled extremely well by the hotel staff. The service throughout the meal was excellent and the meal itself was absolutely gorgeous. (Another perk of the job!) Then with the speeches completed the guests returned to the bar while the staff very quickly readied the room for the night's entertainment. I got some great shots of the first dance and again the hotel had done a fabulous job with the layout, lighting and acoustics in the room for this part of the wedding experience at The Station House Hotel.
My overall appraisal of The Station House Hotel would be very favourable equally from the Bride and Groom, the guests and a photographer's point of view. The location is stunning yet portrays a very laid back and relaxed atmosphere. The staff are extremely helpful and very friendly and the food served is fantastic. So its a big thumbs up from me for The Station House Hotel anyway. I am due back there next year for two weddings and I will be delighted if I get the chance return to this, one of my favourite wedding venues, again before this year is out.

Local councils have developed laws to make sure communities and the environment are protected from the trail bike riders who do the wrong thing.
These laws enable the confiscation of trail bikes from riders who repeatedly hoon in bushland areas and parks. They also include an on-the-spot fines for trail bike riders caught riding in the wrong place.

Good Afternoon,
shopping for a pair of Leica Trinovid 10x42 binoculars. I thought I saw them
on sale on your site within the last couple days, butI do not see them at all
now. Is Leica no longer
making them, or are you just not carrying them anymore? And if that is the case, that is comparable in
terms of price and quality?
Dear Jacob,
Thanks for your inquiry about the Leica Trinovid binocular. Leica is discontinuing
this model and will not be making them anymore. The closest models to
it would be either the Zeiss 10x42 Conquest HD Binocular, Meopta Meopro HD 10x42 Binocular, or Vortex Razor HD 10x42 Binocular.
If you need more detailed information about any of these binocular models, just give us a call at 800-289-1132.

I was introduced to this great church a year ago and love to attend. The church is very big and beautiful . The services are full with life and music. The people that attend are very friendly and all seem to be part of a family. The Pastors speak heavenly words every service.
Hawthorne Gospel Church is one of the largest in the area. They get very large crowds so I'd advise to go early as to insure a good parking spot. Easily accessible from the highway 208.
Hawthorne Gospel Church is located at 2000 State Rt 208 in Hawthorne and has been in the business of Non-denominational Church since 1925.

My fundamentalism is based off of the belief that God is The Supreme and Ultimate Reality.
People have been programmed to react negatively to the word "fundamentalism" and anything tied to it. In this same manner, people have been programmed to react negatively towards other concepts that they presume to understand.
No one can attack my God, my God is Unapproachable in Majesty. My God is the God of all the saints and prophets, both known and unknown. My God is The Way, The Truth, and The Life. My God is The Lord of All Worlds, The Creator, The Sustainer, and The Destroyer. My God is Holy, set apart and pure from blemish. My God is The Incomparable, The Unique, and The Singular of whom there is no opposite or equal. My God is Perfection.
Our relationship with God The Father is through God The Son, who is The Most Perfect Image of God who is in God and in you as well. The Spirit of Truth, That Holy Spirit is in all of this, and reveals how this mystery can be.
The Truth of God is written in the hearts of all men, and The Gospel of God's Salvation has been preached to all creatures, so abandon your excuses, repent, and believe The Gospel! The Truth is what sets you free, and that is the good news!<<
And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. As many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of the will of God. The hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth,
You are basically right but let me suggest a couple of things.
Fundamentalism is basically a doctrine that teaches the Bible is all true, but not all literally true. It also teaches the the Bible is man's only source for faith and practice.
The truth of God is not written on the hearts of all men. l If it was they would all follow Him.
The gospel has not been preached to all men. When that does happen then Jesus will return and the end of the age will begin.

Your inspiration is our command
Whatever your unique vision for your kitchen, bath or other space in your home, we can transform it into a luxurious reality. And all it takes is a few steps:
Finding the seed.
As a starting point for design inspiration, visit our showroom and view vignettes highlighting different styles of cabinets and finish options. You can also meet with one of our designers, who will help spark ideas by asking questions related to what you'd like to see in your new space and how you plan to use it.
Discovering possibilities.
With the seed of inspiration firmly planted, we'll work with you to bring your vision to life. After considering the overall architectural style of your house, and your practical needs, our designer will come up with some rough concepts and a preliminary estimate.
For new-construction projects, we welcome the opportunity to work with your architect, interior designer or builder to bring your vision to life. We can also model your room environment using our 3D rendering tools so you can see how your design will look when all elements are in place.
Putting ideas in action.
The next step is where we finalize the design plans and project timelines. As part of this process, we'll guide you toward cabinetry products and accessories that complete the overall look and meet your budget requirements.
Inspiration come true.
A typical kitchen with Bentwood custom cabinets and millwork will take 12 weeks to build. At the end of the process, we will install your products to exact specifications, ensuring your inspiration takes perfect shape in your home.

Part Four, Chapters Eight through Eleven Summary
In Chapter 8, a new prime minister named George Ockham gives a television speech about how everyone should be confident that they will be allowed to pursue the good life with minimal interference from government. Tristram watches the speech from an eating-house in the town of Chester, where he has just consumed a large meat-meal. He hears a loudspeaker announcement of a party by the river that night where partners will be provided. The town is full of soldiers and their equipment who distribute cans of meat they call "bully." He sees a news disc report of love-ins and human sacrifice in numerous countries, and then he walks out of town to hitchhike. A man driving an army truck offers a lift to a spot only a few miles from Farm NW 313. On the...

Patricia Smith
Raipur, India, Nov. 2005
The birth, with its brilliant sudden tongue, failed to rattle her. Even with the heart loosed, sliced public from its trembling cup, she remained the daughter of frantic drum. Let them have their scoured steel and questions of smaller souls.
Patricia Smith is the author of five books of poetry, including Blood Dazzler (a 2008 National Book Award finalist) chronicling the tragedy of Hurricane Katrina, and Teahouse of the Almighty, a National Poetry Series selection, winner of the Hurston-Wright Legacy Award and About.com's Best Poetry Book of 2006. She also authored the ground-breaking history Africans in America and the award-winning children's book Janna and the Kings. Her work has appeared in Poetry, The Paris Review, TriQuarterly and many other journals, and has been performed around the world, including Carnegie Hall, the Poets Stage in Stockholm, Rotterdam's Poetry International, the Aran Islands International Poetry and Prose Festival, the Bahia Festival, the Schomburg Center and on tour in Germany, Austria and Holland. She is a Pushcart Prize winner, a Cave Canem faculty member and a four-time individual champion of the National Poetry Slam, the most successful poet in the competition's history. She teaches in the Stonecoast MFA program at the University of Southern Maine.

I've been thinking about this Bicycle Blankenship. see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8sFB-yL1c4
seems to be a fairly simple build. We usually carry two single speed bikes to camp with. Sometimes my disability leaves my balance off and I think this may be the perfect solution to riding and then having a problem.
He even has a book published for the build on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/How-Built-Own-Four-Wheel-Bicycle/dp/1441411224/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338903010&sr=8-1

The hulking structure that looms over 5th Street already has been nicknamed "Megamission" on Skid Row. The size of the new Los Angeles Mission, which opened its doors to the homeless Tuesday, seemed to surprise everyone.
"I wanted to see this," said 48-year-old Paula Dixon, the first homeless person to come through the gate, as she ran her eyes across the stark outer walls of the 156,000-square-foot building at 5th and Wall streets.
Even Mark Holsinger, the mission executive director who had the idea of replacing the 43-year-old facility, said, "It's mind-boggling to me. We didn't start with this size in mind."
The $25-million, four-story building has 306 beds, triple the number in the crumbling pre-1900 building on Los Angeles Street that has only 20,000 square feet. As the numbers of homeless grew in Los Angeles, so did the mission's plans. "We just got bigger and bigger," said Holsinger.
