Congratulations to the latest Award Winners
Mon 20th Jun
Congratulations to the recent Award winners:
Stephen O'Shea is the winner of 2016 Gillian Purvis Award for New Writing and received £1,500. PhD student at the University of Strathclyde, Stephen's current work focuses on combat veterans from Iraq and Afghanistan. The award will enable him to release time from working in a bar in order that he can travel to continue his research and interview war veterans.
Jessica Butler has received the 2016 Gillian Purvis Award for Travel for Primary Research. Jessica's particular interest is in developing knitwear within a sportswear context. At the end of her 3rd year in Textiles at Glasgow School of Art, Jessica will visit Wimbledon Tennis Museum and Barcelona's Olympic villages and stadiums to broaden her research before going into her final undergraduate year.
Roseanna Noon is the recipient of the 2016 Gillian Purvis Award to a 4th year textile student at Glasgow School of Art. Toby Paterson, Chairman of the Trust, was pleased to announce and present the award to Roseanna on 1 February at a work in progress show of 4th year student work. Roseanna, who specialises in embroidery, was excited to know that the award will enable her to purchase the materials that she really craves for her degree show. We look forward to seeing her work in June.
In August 2015 Rachel Northedge travelled to Denmark after she was awarded the Gillian Purvis Award for Travel for Primary Research for a 3rd year textile student at Glasgow School of Art. A student of weave, Rachel was particularly inspired by her visit to the Textiel Lab and Museum in Tilburg. In her report and thanks to the Trust, she said "it was amazing being able to finally visit the place I had read so much about and return to the UK with new visual and technical knowledge, as well as a bank of research to consult throughout my final year project". Rachel's work will be available to see at the GSA Degree Show in June.
In the second year of Gillian Purvis Travel Bursaries to 3rd year students of Fashion Business or Fashion Branding, Mhairi Galloway is undertaking an exchange at the University of Iowa and Samantha Taylor will travel to Finland for an exchange at Helsinki Metropolia.

Revenge is always sweet.
The East Tennessee State Volleyball team defeated the Chattanooga Mocs on Oct. 12 inside of Brooks Gym. This win makes the Bucs 6-0 at home and tied with Chattanooga for No. 1 in the Southern Conference.
"Bucs backing Bucs, we love that," said ETSU Head Coach Lindsey Devine. "Our crowd is always supportive of us. Anyone should have such pride about their gym, and traditionally, we've always been that way. These girls know that it's an honor to play in here. They know it's an honor to continue the tradition of past players, so with the fans and knowing what's at stake, it's important to own your own house."
Earlier in the season on Sept. 30, the Mocs defeated ETSU in Chattanooga 3-1.
"I feel like we're stronger as a team mentally and physically," said Hailey Aguilar (Oswego, Ill.). "We're following the game plan coach gives us. We played our own game."
This rival was one to watch last season, and it seems that this year is no different.
In the first set on Wednesday night, the Bucs went on a 13-16 run to build momentum that would last the entire set. UTC came close, only down 22-16, but the Bucs scored three of the last five points to put the set away 25-18.
The Bucs would continue to put on the pressure in the second set.
ETSU went on a 13-0 run from the performance of sophomore setter Alyssa Kvarta (Crown Point, Ind.) and never looked back.
"These are things that we have been reinforcing all year," Devine said. "She was able to demonstrate the things that we've been talking about."
Braina Allmon (Flower Mound, Texas) and AJ Lux (Shelbyville, Ind.), completed five kills each for the Bucs in this set. Lux ended with a .714 hitting percentage. The Bucs ended the second set 25-15.
The final set looked nothing like the first two, as the Mocs would not allow themselves to be outscored for the majority of the set. The Mocs led the majority of the set until the Bucs went on a 6-2 run to give the Bucs a 21-18 lead. The Mocs got back within one, but a pair of clutch blocks from freshman Kaela Massey (Brentwood, Tenn.), with help from teammates Lux and Allmon, put the Bucs farther ahead.
With her 14th kill of the night, Allmon put the match away, ending the set 25-20.
On the Friday and Saturday following the game against Chattanooga, the Bucs defeated Wofford and Western Carolina, improving their overall record to 14-6 and 6-2 in conference play.

So, Final Exams finished up and I figured it was time for some well deserved sleep. So I manage to have another experience, and oddly enough, two things occurred. I originally have been using a sink-out method because it was easier than pushing myself up off and out of my body. I don't remember the exact details, but it felt like I was able to turn a dial and make it that much easier for myself to get out by pushing upwards.
The second thing was something that got my gears turning; while I was in my Astral Body, talking to a muted individual [the intent being testing communication in said body], I felt the sensation of my physical body's jaw clenching; something I realized that had held me back for a while [being aware of my physical body's feelings while in the astral body]. But something that through me for a loop was that I got my physical jaw to relax. I even played around a bit, and moved my physical body at the same time as my astral body. Is that normal?
Changing frequencies? Controlling two bodies?

Let's get back to basics for a minute here – what is your game plan when you purchase a property to rehab and sell? Are you just a wholesaler and looking to get into the bigger profit deals? If you aren't sure exactly where to start, here is our simple 6 steps that we follow with each property we flip.
- Demo
- Utilities & Mechanicals
- Repair & Prep
- Install
- Painting
- Finish & Detail
One super important way to follow these steps is sticking to your outlined plan that you created at the beginning and keeping a punch list of things you are working on. Following a schedule with your contractors is also key so you don't have different groups working on top of each other.

"55 Simple Strategies is a Goldmine…I went through it on a Buffer Day just to learn how much I really hadn't considered in sourcing deals. Great stuff Josh!" – Bill Ziccardi, California
"Hi Josh, I just read your 55 Ways report and I am quite impressed, as well as excited at the possibilities. I felt as if I had found a gold mine of information! Excellent selling tool, because I feel that if you are giving that many resources away for free, the rest of your programs must have some outstanding value." – Fr. Charles Butler, Missouri

Whenever we get together, we share our success stories and what is working for us in our particular markets.

Chat with Joe McCall of Real Estate Investing Mastery
In my latest episode of Strategic Real Estate Radio last week, I able to sit down with Joe McCall of the "Real Estate Mastery" podcast. Joe and I discuss one of my favorite topics, quick cash deals and investing virtually.
Joe McCall has a podcast on iTunes called "The Real Estate Investing Mastery" and also wrote a #1 Kindle book, "Making Extra Money Flipping Houses While on Vacation." He has flipped over 100 houses and helped his students flip hundreds more. Joe is passionate about the "freedom lifestyle" and a location independent business where he can work anywhere in the world.
Joe's story is probably a lot like yours – he started working a regular 9-5 to pay the bills, but then was able to develop a niche of investing in wholesaling lease options. He quickly found that his income from wholesaling lease options surpassed his 9-5 job and his full-time job was holding him back from the flexibility he was striving for.
Click here to learn more about Joe's story and listen to the full podcast.

Review by:
Gary Denton
on July 11, 2013 :
There is not much American literature about life under occupation, a consequence of our fortunate history. Perhaps the best known would be The Secret of Santa Victoria, about Italians under German occupation hiding their large store of wine.
This novel by Robert Stone plays out much more realistically, how do people react to being occupied? Who can you trust? If an opportunity comes to help with liberation who will step up despite the dangers?
This small quiet village has an opportunity to play a small part in the D-Day invasion by attacking German anti-aircraft defenses. A slow setup leads to a realistic conclusion.
Pro - the editing and writing and historical accuracy is much higher than many of the Ebooks I have purchased. Con - It could use a more vivid exciting portrayal of a POV character, which might run counter to the realism which is the main strength of this novel.
Recommended for fans of historical, military, and occupation fiction.

Eight entered for $400K Presque Isle Masters
EmailERIE, Pa. - A field of eight was entered on Wednesday for the $400,000 Presque Isle Masters, the highlight of this inaugural meet. The six-furlong race over Tapeta is for fillies and mares and will be run Saturday along with two $175,000 supporting stakes. The expected favorite is Shaggy Mane, who finished second in the Grade 1 Princess Rooney at Calder in her last out July 7 at Calder. She will ship in from Southern California for trainer Don Chatlos after working on the synthetic surfaces at Del Mar and Hollywood Park. Miss Macy Sue won her first four starts this year for trainer Kelly Von Hemel, including the Grade 3 Winning Colors at Churchill Downs. She was rank in her last effort, the Grade 2 Honorable Miss at Saratoga Aug 3, and finished fourth in the field of five. She has had two works over the Polytrack at Arlington Park, including a bullet five furlongs Sept. 1. The move was the best of 45 at the distance that day. The other entrants are Mary Delaney, a six-time winner over synthetic surfaces for trainer Eddie Kenneally; Wild Gams, who has worked twice over the local surface for Ben Perkins; Vestrey Lady, who is in from Woodbine for trainer Reade Baker; Smart and Fancy, who switches from turf for Anthony Dutrow; and a pair trained by Steve Kelsaris, Miraculous Miss and Coli Bear. Seven horse were entered for the Presque Isle Mile, headed by the Steve Asmussen-trained Super Frolic, who in his last two starts has finished second in the $200,000 Evangeline Mile and the $115,000 Tiznow Breeders' Cup at Louisiana Downs. A field of 10 was drawn for the 5 1/2-furlong Karl Boyes Memorial, which will pit the three-race win streak of Indian Chant, trained by Tom Amoss, against the four-race win streak of Bernie Blue, trained by Miguel Feliciano. Tapeta gets a thumbs up This is the first race meet in the country being run over a Tapeta racing surface, and so far the response has been extremely positive. The surface, installed by Michael Dickinson's Tapeta Footings Inc., has been in use for years at Dickinson's Tapeta Farm and is also in use at the Fair Hill training center, both in Maryland. A Tapeta surface is currently being installed at Golden Gate Fields in Northern California. "The Tapeta surface is very consistent no matter the weather," said Darren Fleming, Asmussen's local assistant. "We have worked 50 horses over it, and the horses have been injury-free so far. It is kind on the horse." Trainer Scott Lake said some of his horses have improved over the surface. "We like the track very much," said Lake. "I brought horses here who haven't breezed well on the dirt and they have found their stride here." During the first nine days of racing, two horses have been injured during races. In the Inaugural Stakes, the first race here on opening night, Cantrel broke down while racing on the lead and had to be euthanized. On the second night, Genie on the Move was pulled up during a race and vanned off the track. The surface has been fair from a handicapping perspective. There hasn't been an inside or outside bias, as horses have come up the rail and circled the field with equal success. Speed horses have had a fair chance, winning 19 of the first 64 races in wire-to-wire fashion. Six-furlong times have been in the 1:10 to 1:12 range. The first rain of the meet came last Saturday night, and the track sped up noticeably for Sunday's card. Ravalo, a 3-year-old colt, went six furlongs in 1:08.26 in an allowance race, nearly two seconds faster than any other horse at the meet. Other horses who turned in quick times Sunday were Zooming By, who ran 6 1/2 furlongs in 1:15.93 while entered for a $50,000 claiming race; Sir John Q, who covered a mile in 1.37.38 in a conditioned $10,000 race; and Flaming Comet, who went five furlongs in 57.74 seconds in a $10,000 maiden claiming race. As a way of comparison, General Tommy won a starter allowance race over Golden Hare, the Asmussen-trained horse who had won 13 of his 14 previous starts, during the track's opening week in 58.50. Offtrack handle rising, ontrack falling After nine nights of racing, all-sources wagering at Presque Isle is averaging $559,157 a card, with almost 90 percent of that amount being bet offtrack. Ontrack handle has dipped from a high of $126,204 on opening night, to $32,436 this Monday. The average ontrack handle for the first eight days is $59,773. Offtrack handle increased during the second week of the meet to $499,384 per program. o Favorites are winning a low 20.8 percent of the races, with payoffs averaging $18.68. This may be partially due to horses shipping in from many different tracks to race, and the figures may improve as the meet progresses and bettors get a handle on how to compare horses coming from the different circuits. o In the first nine days of racing, 24 horses have been claimed for $357,000.

Nearly three years in the making, the Total Cancer Care Survivorship Initiative at Tampa-based Moffitt went live in late August with a patient Web portal, starting with colon cancer survivors. The goal is to follow survivors for the rest of their lives to reduce recurrence of cancer through personalized follow-up care and lifestyle changes, and to catch any recurrences early. The program also will provide patients with a detailed summary of their care to educate them and other providers about the treatment history and any risk-related effects.
Its really an opportunity to let patients, once their treatment is complete, get on with their lives and make lifestyle changes they want to make, says Paul Jacobsen, Ph.D., chair of the Department of Health Outcomes and Behavior at Moffitt. But the treatment summary also will support continuity of care, Jacobsen adds. For instance, if cancer returns, many patients dont remember much about their initial treatment except that they had chemotherapy.
An application in a data warehouse behind the portal will enable the building of care plans for each survivor with recommendations for what tests should be taken and at what intervals. The recommendations initially will be based on general evidence-based guidelines, but will become more personalized as researchers find new best practices.
The generic recommendations are one-size-fits-all, such as getting a colonoscopy every six months, Jacobsen says. The hope is to over time make the recommendations pertinent to each patient by including such factors as pain, sleep and fatigue problems, and refer patients to specialists or trusted reference information on the Web. Using data to better identify personalized traits also can show if family members should have genetic counseling to identify their cancer risks.
Proponents hope to have some personalized treatment guidelines and provide help finding additional information starting in the summer of 2010, depending on available funding, says Lance Caranante, director of business and finance systems at Moffitt. We want to present them data that theyre likely to go looking for anyway on the Web, he notes. Were focusing on trusted sites and valuable information, such as age-specific treatment for certain drugs, that they might not find. Were going to give them the data we hope will be relevant to them.
The program also will include a physician Web portal to share best practices and other information with patients primary care physicians. It will take two or three years to compile adequate data to support valid research.
The forthcoming personalized treatment based on genetic and lifestyle considerations, combined with a portal to bring information gleaned from the data warehouse down to cancer survivors and their physicians, is revolutionary, Caranante contends. Were on the forefront of developing a personalized portal to a level that doesnt exist today. This first piece is very important because it gives the means to support the portal. Nearly 40,000 patients have consented to having their data stored in the warehouse. The possibilities are endless.
How it Works
The Total Cancer Care program started with a data warehouse holding information on 38,500 patients, which has taken nearly three years to collect. The warehouse holds data from Moffitts electronic health records system and a cancer registry. The registry, with data from Moffitt and patients other providers, will aid in following patients throughout their lifetime. The cancer center annually contacts patients and their providers to get updated information via telephone, e-mail, postal mail, fax or electronic health records.
The data warehouse also will support continuing research at Moffitt and 17 other treatment facilities across the nation to identify the most appropriate treatments based on best practices, patient genetic characteristics and other factors. We try to find the underpinnings of the molecular mechanism of cancer, and reveal genetic signatures predictive of diagnoses, therapeutic interventions and prognosis of the disease by bringing together molecular and clinical data, says David Fenstermacher, Ph.D., a biomedical and genomics researcher, and chair and executive director at Moffitts Department of Biomedical Informatics.
Moffitts data warehouse sits on a platform from Oracle. Its data marts are managed with Microsoft SQL Server software.
Microsofts Amalga Life Sciences data integration and aggregation software combines data from multiple sources and organizes it, and the vendors ProClarity software facilitates the building, analysis and reporting of data sets pulled from the warehouse. In essence, Amalga and ProClarity provide some of the tools to analyze data, Fenstermacher says. Moffitt is installing the latest version of Amalga, which includes a dynamic view builder that will enable researchers to quickly select what data elements they want, such as smoking history and other risk factors, rather than wade through thousands of different elements, Fenstermacher notes. Well be able to design on-demand data for researchers and tell them the strengths and limitations of the data.
Hes also excited about Microsofts recent acquisition of certain genomic data analysis technologies of the Rosetta Biosoftware unit of Rosetta Inpharmatics LLC. Microsoft will embed the technologies in the Amalga software. Well take it and look for genes turned on and off to help us understand the molecular mechanisms of cancer,
Fenstermacher says. Its going to provide a rich set of data from diagnosis through treatment and survival.
Early Returns
While the program didnt start for patients until late August, the data warehouse and analytics software has already provided significant benefits for Moffitt researchers, who previously had to look in 25 different information systems for data. Many of the legacy systems have been turned off and the warehouse gets data feeds from 14 active systems. The time savings are huge, Fenstermacher says. We can get the data in a minute rather than doing chart abstractions which can take weeks or months.
He notes, however, that today only 40 to 50 percent of the data he needs comes from the warehouse, but expects big gains during the next three years as about 100 patients daily consent to their data being put in the warehouse. Well never get to the point where all data is in the data warehouse. If I could get 80 percent, thats when Id say success.
The warehouse also is starting to yield the rich data needed to build algorithms to assess best treatment practices, Fenstermacher says. For instance, two clinical trials are using molecular markers to determine appropriate treatments. One of the trials, covering ovarian cancer, is using cell lines from tumors to unveil the molecular changes in cells based on chemotherapeutic treatments. The goal is to learn which types of cell lines individual cells captured from a tumor that grow and divide in Petri dishes until there are enough for research respond best to which types of drugs. If the cells die, we can look at the molecular pathways that enable cell death and then translate that knowledge to ongoing clinical trials, Fenstermacher says.
Even in the early stages, the amount of data being collected and analyzed is huge. Many data sets we work with on a regular basis are many terabytes in size, Fenstermacher explains. Its not unusual for us to work on a project involving five to seven terabytes and its only getting worse. The warehouse has the infrastructure to support three or four petabytes of data. A terabyte is one trillion bytes of data and a petabyte is one quadrillion bytes.
An important benefit of the warehouse and cancer registry will be significant shortening of the process of identifying and recruiting patients for clinical trials based on their molecular traits. Were looking for patients with specific cancers who have failed conventional treatments, Fenstermacher says. Youll take a search for eligible patients from months to years literally down to weeks. He believes Moffitt and its cancer treatment partners are two to three years away from having a database large enough to do such searches routinely.
Advancing data warehouse and analysis technologies are dramatically increasing the speed by which researchers can identify the most effective cancer treatments based on the type of cancer, the patients genetic makeup and lifestyle, and other factors. The missing piece, however, is a set of tools to bring this information out of the research settings and down to physician offices and patient homes.
Fenstermacher hopes this capability will be available in two or three years, when Moffitt plans to use the physician Web portal to enable physicians to access what has been learned. We eventually have to push this data down to the physicians and patient, he says. The best thing we can do is empower the patients to be an active part of treatment by providing tools to help them understand their disease, their options and to make decisions with their physician.

By Alexandra Ulmer
CARACAS (Reuters) - A dissenting faction of Venezuela's Socialist Party is seeking to put forward its own candidates in this year's parliamentary election, deepening a rift with President Nicolas Maduro's unpopular administration.
Marea Socialista, or "Socialist Tide", a small group of leftist intellectuals, has accuses Maduro's government of spawning corruption and bureaucracy and betraying the legacy of the late Hugo Chavez.
Officials have ignored or attacked these criticisms, Marea Socialista says, further alienating the fringe group ahead of the election, for which the government has not set a date.
"We don't identify with the current behavior of the Socialist Party," said Nicmer Evans, a leader and spokesman for the group.
"We're aspiring to have parliamentary candidates present in all the country's districts," he said, adding Marea Socialista has applied to electoral authorities to become a political party.
Maduro, who lacks his late mentor's charisma, is struggling to keep his disparate coalition united in the face of a decaying economy.
Many Maduro foes want to end state control over production and foreign currency, which they blame for throwing the OPEC country into a recession, causing shortages of basic goods and pressuring inflation toward triple digits.
The dissident socialists favor more oversight and transparency in currency control and increased "worker control" and private sector input in production.
Venezuela's poor, the bedrock of support for Chavez and his oil-fueled social programs, have been particularly hard-hit. Many spend hours in line for milk or medicines and struggle to make ends meet as the monthly minimum wage hits around $26 on the black market.
Some are "sick and tired of Maduro's governance," said Evans, a fierce defender of Chavez. "What we're doing is offering an alternative proposal for the revolutionary people."
In addition to cracking down on corruption and bureaucracy, Marea Socialista proposes an "orderly" settlement to end hefty debt payments and instead use scarce dollars to boost imports.
Critics say Marea Socialista fails to realize corruption and bureaucracy are inherent to the state-led system Chavez championed, and that only a major overhaul can salvage the economy.
Marea Socialista remains a niche group unlikely to gain mass traction. It may not even have a shot at going it alone, as its request lodged six months ago to become a party remains unanswered, Evans said.
"The first thing we're fighting for is an electoral card," he stressed. "In terms of social pressure for a readjustment, I think the inflection point is this parliamentary election."

Well it is official we had our first snow yesterday – blah! But it did not accumulate or stay thankfully and the weekend looks sunny again 🙂
Our week could have been better – both Chad and I came down with colds 🙁 Chloe had a runny nose for a couple days and Avery lucked out. So this meant a quiet week for us all.
Tuesday night we did have a date night for our anniversary and the concert we had planned to go through got cancelled so instead we went for supper and drinks. I was feeling crappy so we headed home after that but still had a nice night out.
I took no photo of the girls this week except one of Avery helping Chloe when we got home, Chloe refuses to let me help her with her shoes and coat – only Avery is allowed:
Exercise wise I got three lunch classes, two spin classes and a yoga class. I have to admit lunch classes are really awesome these days, it frees up my evenings and lets me extra sleep in the morning.
With this cooler weather brings fall-inspired suppers which I was so ready for!
Saturday – BBQ Chicken Quesadillas – Budget Bytes
Sunday – Turkey Chili
Monday – One Pot Sausage Pasta – Two Peas & Their Pod
Tuesday – Minestrone Soup & grilled cheese – Two Peas & Their Pod
Wednesday – Easy Shrimp & Broccoli Stir-Fry – Damn Delicious
Thursday– Turkey Avocado Club Wraps & sweet potato fries
Friday – Slow Cooker Taco Chicken Bowls – Budget Bytes
This weekend we have a community BBQ and my niece's 2nd birthday party and that will be more than enough for me! Enjoy your weekends!

Who is this masked mascot?
You don't have the camera ready so your passenger crawls all the way in the back to retrieve it and now you slow down and wait for them to catch up to you. Still waiting...the other vehicle was an older style Mercedes and I'm driving a Ford Excursion V10. Gas guzzler but it's my truck. Now for me that is painful part, the slowing down. I like to get in and get to where I'm going; but I did slow down so we could get this picture and laugh even harder as we let the "masked mascot" vehicle get next to us. It looks like they had as much fun as we did.
This was taken on the PA Turnpike returning from a trip visiting family in Lebanon, OH.
Hope you have a great day!!!

How funny! Keep that camera handy!ReplyDelete
Yup, you just pasted the true test of a Blogger.ReplyDelete
Sending your passenger diving for the camera AND getting a great picture of "it" waving.
You get an A+
How wonderful!ReplyDelete
Love the picture... well worth the slow down!

The Hero's Journey: Iron Man
Things change for my hero when he defeats Killian and has to deal with the consequenses.
Call to Adventure
The Special World
The Ordinary World
New Life/Resolution
In the beginning, he has to escape. As his journey goes on, he has to battle or fight with other people who either try to destroy him or make their own suit.
Obviously, Iron Man wins in the end my defeating his enemies. He gets to be with Pepper Potts, and he continues to be the millionaire owner of Stark Industries. I believe that he gave up being Iron Man because he wanted to live a happy normal life since the Pepper situation.
The Herald
This moment changed Tony Stark's life forever, he developed the Iron Suit. He is now becoming tougher and is modifying the original suit into something better.
My hero is Tony Stark. He is a scientist who is inventing new technology like the "The Suits" and Jarvis. His girlfriend name is Pepper Potts. He is the millionaire owner of Stark Industries.
Hero's Identity
Tony Stark's call to adventure is when he gets taken by terrorists.
Iron Man doesn't really have a mentor at all. He comes up with the idea when he needs to escape from confinement.
Before Iron Man, Tony Stark is the millionaire founder of Stark Industries. He makes the first suit and develops from there.
In the beginning, Iron Monger is Iron Man's main enemy who is trying to take out Tony Stark, and Stark Industries. In the latest movie, a guy that used to be a huge Iron Man fan who was dissed by Tony at a party. Now hes a rich, good-looking revenge seeker. He takes a guy who had recently attacked Iron Man with his own form of the suit, out of jail to help him take down Tony. The guy just uses the materials to build his own army of Iron Suits to try and take over the world, I guess......
All in the end of everything, Tony Stark gives up being Iron Man because on account of his actions, Pepper gets turned into a fire fox and he takes out the arc reactor and gives up for good.
I believe there is a connection between crisis and trials because they both involve starting to deal with the problem.
These frames are connected because they both show my hero going from one world to the other.
I feel these pieces of the hero monomyth are connected for Iron Man because they both involve the beginning of his journey and the help he needs.
(The Herald and Call to Adventure)
I feel these are connected because they both have to do with identity and, all around how he has changed and evolved.
They both show the beginning of the hero preparing to transfer worlds.
These frames both are connected because both show a part of the ending to my heros

Thinking Outside The Box...
So why, pray tell, would I buy it?
HELLO! Because they were 4 for $5! Woohoooo!
As you may have already deduced...they are kitchen canisters, but I am always on the lookout for more places to stash my stuff! So canister-schmanster! Poof! You have become a crafty girl's "catch all"!
Sooooooooo much potential! How many starfish can I fit in there! {GLEE!:}
Although I don't find sage offensive in any way, I sill prefer pink or white...so one or two of them may get a make-over...it would be so easy to cover up "coffee" or "flour" with a sparkly vintage trinket...but the "tea" is staying...I {heart} tea!
PS: got them @ TENDER HEART TREASURES ...they hate me! I always wait until they have a MONDO sale and free shipping...then I get $75 worth of stuff...in sofa-sized boxes...shipped for free! And NO sales tax...unless your in Nebraska {GO HUSKERS!}.
And there is still time to join in on our VALENTINE'S GIVE AWAY !

I still don't know why the previous owners of our house decided it was a good idea to destroy any hope our house had for curb appeal by pouring a concrete pad over the front lawn. It was a rental before we bought it, so it was probably a practical decision that meant the owners wouldn't have to worry about negligent tenants. I wonder if they thought about the people who would be ripping it back up in the future as they poured it. I wonder if they knew how back breaking it would be.
The sod needs a little time to take hold. How long does it take for the lines between each strip to disappear? The flowers need a little time to grow and fill out. We'll be ordering a little tree soon, I think, a silver maple, or an oak perhaps.
I'm proud of what we accomplished, though, admittedly, it was mostly the Husband and a friend who cleared the remainder of the concrete and did the planting – in the rain and mud, I might add – on Saturday.
Grow, flowers, grow!

Luckily for me, the energy of the Full Moon last for two nights.
The night before the moon is 100% full, its power can also be accessed for Full Moon rites and magick.
Tonight I have my own personal ritual of dedication and consecration.
After much searching, I have finally found the perfect Hekate statue for my altar.
This is great timing, as tomorrow night will be a very special one for me, as it will be for people across the globe.
This will be my first Rite of Her Sacred Fires.
This is an organised event, held annually, that pays homage to the Goddess Hekate.
The rite is rather simple, but is a powerfully transformative experience.
Knowing that Pagans, the world over, are performing this rite at the same time, lends it even more power.
I am really looking forward to this one, I have spent today preparing and getting myself in the right space of mind.
Tonight's dedication and placement of my new statue will be a great start to this very magickal full moon.
If you are interested in joining this wonderful event, here is the link to the Covenant of Hekate website: Hekate Covenant

How Waiakea Hawaiian Volcanic Water Changed The Bottled Water Industry
March 6, 2017
When 22-year-old Ryan Emmons launched Waiakea Hawaiian Volcanic Water in 2012, he set out to create a new type of bottled water product that would revolutionize the industry. Up until then, no bottled water company had managed to create a product that was socially responsible in every way. Plus, the industry as a whole had been under fire for its negative impact on the environment thanks to the materials from which the bottles were being made.
Today, Waiakea Water is worth over $10 million. The company managed to grow over 4,000 percent in its first three years. By implementing ethical and environmentally-friendly practices, the company has raised the standards of manufacturing for the bottled beverage industry as a whole.
During frequent vacations to Hawaii with his family, he would stop by the Waiakea Springs adjacent to the active Mauna Loa volcano. The springs collect water that has traveled down 14,000 feet of volcanic rock.
As the water trickles down the volcano, it picks up an unusually high level of nutrients including sodium, potassium and magnesium, all essential electrolytes that keep the body hydrated. Additionally, the water picks up a high amount of silica, a mineral that has been shown to improve the digestive system.
According to Crunchbase, Waiakea water is completely sustainable, replenishing itself naturally every month thanks to high levels of rainfall.
The materials used to make the bottles are completely recycled. Compared to the manufacturing processes of other water bottle brands, the process of making Waiakea Hawaiian Volcanic Water uses 85 percent less energy.
The company also has a highly ethical edge. Emmons partnered with the charitable organization Pump Aid to provide clean drinking water to underprivileged regions around the world. For every liter of Waiakea Hawaiian Volcanic Water purchased, the company donates 650 liters of clean drinking water to an impoverished area.
Thanks to Emmons' emphasis on social responsibility, Waiakea Water is forcing other bottled water companies to raise their standards. Currently, Waiakea Hawaiian Volcanic Water can be purchased in thousands of stores across the country.

Fortunately, there are compliance officers like Helane Morrison who are very passionate about making sure that equality is maintain.
Helane Morrison has been involved in her field for a long time. She has then went and got mentoring from different people so that she could not only learn how to approach the issues of violations but also learn how tough the world could be when facing crooked people and businesses. She has also taken the time to make sure that she stays on top of all of the rules and regulations.
She has taken on many cases of violations of ethics. She has proven to be the solution that was needed to the problems of corruption when the economy has collapsed back in 2007.

WASHINGTON — How you assess the banking industry's health from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.'s latest earnings report may depend on which page you turn to.
On the one hand, banks are making all the right moves: cleaning up loan portfolios, lending in sectors enjoying an economic rebound and seeing income steadily rise.
But on the other, the FDIC's fourth-quarter report shows an industry stuck in neutral. Declining loan balances, sluggish revenue growth and lower fee income cast doubt on banks' long-term earning potential.
FDIC Chairman Sheila Bair noted banks continue to feed earnings by draining loss reserves, a trend that began in mid-2010.
If banks "want to have long-term sustainable earnings, you can only rely on reduced loan-loss provisions for so long," she said at the release of the Quarterly Banking Profile.
Banks and thrifts posted earnings of $21.7 billion last quarter, a huge improvement from the $1.8 billion quarterly loss a year earlier. For all of 2010, earnings totaled $87.5 billion, the highest since 2007 and a reversal from a $10.6 billion loss in 2009.
Nearly two out of three institutions had higher quarterly income than a year earlier. For the full year, just 21% of institutions were unprofitable, compared with 30.6% in 2009. It was the first time in six years the percentage of unprofitable institutions fell.
The FDIC credited the smallest quarterly loss provision ($31.6 billion) in over three years for most of the earnings success. The amount set aside for losses was just a little more than half the provision a year earlier.
The FDIC noted that one large institution — thought to be Bank of America Corp.'s credit card subsidiary — restated earnings to reflect a higher writedown for goodwill expenses in 2009 than previously reported, and a lower writedown for 2010.
The restatement meant a negative adjustment for industry earnings in 2009 by about $20 billion and $10 billion of additional income in last year's third quarter.
Higher asset values also fed earnings. Gains on the sale of loans and other assets in the quarter increased more than threefold from a year earlier, to $4 billion. Nonperforming assets were lower for the third straight quarter while deposits grew 1.6%, to $9.4 trillion. The 24 new institutions on the agency's "Problem List" — bringing the total to 884 — was a smaller number than in the previous quarter, the fourth straight time that has happened. Assets held by problem banks jumped $11 billion, to $390 billion.
"Overall, 2010 was a turnaround year, with four straight quarters of positive earnings," Bair said. "While earnings in 2010 remain well below precrisis levels, the past year marked a significant milestone on the road to recovery."
But the positive factors were still not accompanied by net loan growth. Total loans decreased $13.6 billion, to $7.37 trillion, which was greater than the decrease in the third quarter. While some areas showed improvements — one-to-four-family mortgages rose 0.9%, to $1.9 trillion, and commercial and industrial loans rose 1%, to $1.19 trillion — real estate construction and development loans were largely responsible for the overall loan decline, falling more than 9% to $321 billion.
Bair said that, though the drops in loan balances continue to be slight, the numbers are still disappointing. "The rate of decrease is slowing. … So that is positive. And C&I loans are up. Residential mortgages were up," she said. "But it's not going at as fast a pace as I would like to see. Banks need to be focused on this."
Other FDIC officials who briefed reporters said that more robert asset growth could be just around the corner.
"The overall effect of the growing categories versus the declining categories is that we are seeing progressively smaller decreases in the overall loan portfolios in the industry, and we're very close to a point where we expect to see some growth in the overall," said Ross Waldrop, the agency's senior banking analyst.
Richard Brown, the FDIC's chief economist, said banks do not appear as ready to jump back into the real estate market as into other markets.
The deleveraging "in commercial loan portfolios and consumer credit appears to be abating and starting to turn around. Real estate is another matter," he said.
Declining loan balances are not the only indicator that the industry still faces obstacles.
Net operating revenue of $163.6 billion was just 1.7% higher than a year earlier, and 1.3% less than third-quarter revenue. The year-over-year revenue increase was the second smallest in the past two years.
Meanwhile, service charge income for deposit accounts — totaling $8.2 billion in the quarter — was 20.7% lower than a year earlier.
Bert Ely, an independent consultant based in Alexandria, Va., said banks' difficulty in expanding their balance sheets mirrors the broader economy's slump.
"What we have is an industry on the mend but in a sluggish recovery," he said. "The basic trends are good. … What is different is the slowing revenue growth and fee income declines. If you have a sluggish economy, you're going to have a sluggish recovery in banking."
Ely added that the heightened regulatory environment is also having an effect, as banks implement new restrictions — such as a recent FDIC regulation on overdraft fees — and brace for others imposed by the Dodd-Frank Act. Some institutions are already incorporating measures from the new law and are focused more on minimizing their costs than expanding into new products, he said. "You're already seeing banks starting to restructure their account fees and their product offerings," Ely said. "We're going to see some expense cutting, such as branch closures, as banks try to get the cost of running their retail business in line with the revenue being generated."
The industry continued to whittle its bad loans in the fourth quarter. Net chargeoffs in the quarter fell 23.7% from a year earlier, to $41.9 billion. Noncurrent loans, meanwhile, declined 4.7% from the third quarter, to $359 billion.
The FDIC said the ratio of insurance reserves to insured deposits rose 3 basis points, to negative-0.12%.
