Passing Your Faith On To Your Kids: Part 1
Christian young people are leaving the church in record numbers. In fact, some youth ministry experts believe that as many as three out of four Christian teens who attend a secular college or university will leave the church by the time they graduate.
How can we be more intentional about passing our faith along to our children? This week I'll be sharing a few practical ideas on this for Christian parents:
First of all, it's important to remember that Christianity is "caught" more than taught. Although teaching spiritual truths to our kids is important, how we live out our Christian faith on a daily basis is vital. If our "walk" doesn't match our "talk" our children will come to view our faith as hypocritical and meaningless.
So, are you modeling the Fruit of the Spirit? For those of us who are followers of Christ, here's a hard question we should ask ourselves: Are we demonstrating Galatians 5:22-23 in our relationship with our spouse and our kids?
Are those relationships characterized by love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control? If not, perhaps it's time to humbly come before God and ask him to change our hearts.
Here's another question for you: are you keeping the lines of communication Open. Some parents have a tendency to preach at their kids but never really listen to them.
Our children (and especially our teenagers) need to know that they can talk to us about anything at all, even difficult issues like sex and drugs. They need to know that we're truly interested in their lives, and that we'll come alongside them when they are struggling or facing temptation.
I'll share more ideas for Christian parents tomorrow.

WASHINGTON — The great blue heron cam, showing nesting pairs on Maryland's Eastern Shore, got a major upgrade this year and some of the birds arrived earlier than usual for their close-ups.
"Even for the untrained eye, you can tell something is going on," said Susan Shingledecker, of the Chesapeake Conservancy.
"The video is beautiful. It's two birds and they're courting each other. They're checking each other out, and that's just part of how their ritual works," Shingledecker said.
Some of the herons migrate, but the ones in the Chesapeake Bay area stay in the vicinity year round and return to the nesting spot, called a rookery, during mating season — 40 to 50 herons typically begin gathering in early March.
Average temperatures on the Eastern Shore in February have been running about eight degrees above normal.
"Temperatures were in the 70s last week, shattering records across the shore," said Storm Team4 Meteorologist Lauryn Ricketts.
The herons, whose courtship was observed and recorded at the rookery last week, stayed for a few days then left.
"We expect they will be back any time," Shingledecker said. "Once they come back and lay their eggs, the viewing is great 24/7 via the cams."
Great blue heron eggs typically take between 25 and 35 days to hatch.
The upgraded Chesapeake Conservancy camera system, sponsored by explore.org, has higher resolution, improved ability to pan and zoom, audio and a strong infrared camera for clear night views.
"So it provides a more rich experience as you try to see what the birds are up to," Shingledecker said. "The heron cam actually pans between three different nests."

text: Science, Tech, Math › Science What Happens If You Inhale Helium? Effects of Breathing Helium Gas Share Flipboard Email Print Helium is element number 2 on the periodic table. Science Picture Co, Getty Images Science Chemistry Chemistry In Everyday Life Basics Chemical Laws Molecules Periodic Table Projects & Experiments Scientific Method Biochemistry Physical Chemistry Medical Chemistry Famous Chemists Activities for Kids Abbreviations & Acronyms Biology Physics Geology Astronomy Weather & Climate by Anne Marie Helmenstine, Ph.D. Dr. Helmenstine holds a Ph.D. in biomedical sciences and is a science writer, educator, and consultant. She has taught science courses at the high school, college, and graduate levels. Updated June 08, 2018 Helium is a light, inert gas used for MRI machines, cryogenic research, "heliox", and helium balloons. You may have heard inhaling helium can be dangerous, sometimes even fatal, but have you ever wondered just how likely you are to harm your health breathing helium? Here's what you need to know. Inhaling Helium from Balloons If you inhale helium from a balloon, you get a squeaky voice. You may also get light-headed because you're breathing in pure helium gas rather than oxygen-containing air. This can lead to hypoxia or low oxygen. If you take more than a couple of breaths of helium gas, you could pass out. Unless you hit your head when you fall, you're unlikely to suffer any lasting harm from the episode. You may get a headache and a dry nasal passage. Helium is non-toxic and you'll start breathing normal air as soon as you move away from the balloon. Breathing Helium From a Pressurized Tank Inhaling helium from a pressurized gas tank, on the other hand, is extremely dangerous. Because the pressure of the gas is much greater than that of air, the helium could rush into your lungs, causing them to hemorrhage or burst. You'll wind up in the hospital or possibly the morgue. This phenomenon isn't exclusive to helium. Inhaling any pressurized gas can and probably will harm you. Do not attempt to breathe gas from a tank. Other Ways of Inhaling Helium It's dangerous to put yourself into a giant helium balloon because you'll deprive yourself of oxygen and won't automatically start breathing normal air after you start suffering the effects of hypoxia. If you see a giant balloon, resist any urge to try to get inside it. Heliox is a mixture of helium and oxygen. It is used for scuba diving and also for medicine, because it's easier for the lighter gas to pass through obstructed airways. Because heliox contains oxygen in addition to helium, this mixture does not cause oxygen starvation. Test your knowledge of helium with a quick helium facts quiz. Continue Reading

Since the beginning of DART's rail system, the agency's award-winning Station Art and Design Program has ensured its rail stations both reflect and serve as gateways to the surrounding community. For each station, engineers and architects worked closely with artists and neighborhood advisory committees to transform the common elements of a transit station – canopies, columns, pavers, windscreens, fencing and landscaping – into uncommon works of public art.
As DART celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month, we reflect on the influence the Hispanic community had on the design of Westmoreland Station. In the 1990s, largely Hispanic neighborhoods and a commercial/semi-industrial zone surrounded the Westmoreland Station location in West Oak Cliff.
The station's rich colors and textures injected a visual interest and human warmth to the area and reflect its Hispanic heritage. In the words of station artist Leticia Huerta, the station's design elements "added vibrancy to a diverse neighborhood."
Spanish colonial-era architecture found throughout Mexico inspired the tile work and paving designs. Columns were clad in patterns and styles are reminiscent of handmade Mexican tile and masonry.
Roberto Mungia's Familia del Sol – a series of lush, vividly colored panels on the windscreens – depicts events in Mexican culture and mythology.
A massive limestone monument by Eliseo Garcia, Cycles of Life, features a foundation reminiscent of a Mayan pyramid. A winged figure tops four bas-relief sculptures of human interaction, symbolizing the community's hope for the future.
Located at the southern end of the Red Line, Westmoreland Station is part of DART Rail's starter system, which opened in June 1996.

Alexis Sanchez rejected the chance to earn £400,000-a-week after tax and link up with former Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini at Hebei China Fortune in order to cement a move to City, an exclusive report in The Sun on Sunday claims.
It is reported that Alexis was sounded out about a lucrative move to the wealthy Chinese Super League, but he made it clear that his first choice is to reunite with Pep Guardiola at Man City.
Alexis would need to earn £800,000-a-week in England to take home what he could have in China, but his sporting ambition means he is determined to join Premier League leaders City.
City came close to landing Alexis in the summer, only for an agreed move to collapse on deadline day when Arsenal failed to acquire his identified replacement, Thomas Lemar of Monaco.
The 28-year-old Chilean is out of contract in the summer, meaning Arsenal have one more chance to cash in on him if City make a move in January, or else they will lose one of their key men on a free transfer in the summer.
Pep Guardiola was coy when asked about a January swoop for Alexis in his pre-Tottenham press conference, saying: "On the pitch, I don't know. The January transfer window is in the winter.
"I don't know, believe me, I don't know what we're going to do."
It seems more a question of when, rather than if, Alexis Sanchez rocks up at the Etihad Stadium, with Guardiola still a big fan of the versatile attacker.

Tips On Eating Nutritional Meals With Your Family
Healthy eating is linked to general all around health. Be as healthy as you can by utilizing the ideas provided below. There is no longer an excuse for not being more nutrition-smart.
Good nutrition is very vital for pregnant or lactating women. It is necessary for pregnant women to eat plenty of protein inside their diet, even when they actually do not want to nibble on it. Blending a smoothie with egg whites in it can satisfy these protein needs. An egg white is high in protein yet reduced in calories and possesses virtually no fat which makes it a great protein source for females who happen to be pregnant. Make sure you choose pasteurized eggs for this function to prevent salmonella poisoning.
If you are on the go a great deal, keeping some high protein snacks with your carry-on or laptop bag is actually smart. Regular meals within an airport are difficult to acquire. Either you rush through security, wait on the flight, or sit hungry on a plane without food. Having these protein bars gives you something to eat until you can your destination and have the ability to eat a real meal.
Your diet plan needs to include a good amount of whole grain products. Cereals are a healthier choice each and every time, and will serve the body well when consumed as opposed to refined white breads. Other healthy foods you should eat on a regular basis are 100-percent whole-wheat breads, whole-grain pastas, and brown rice. Processed carbohydrates remove beneficial fiber and nutrients from your foods you might be eating.
Your consumption of B-12 has to be adequate. It is not necessarily unusual for vegetarians and seniors to have insufficient amounts. Individuals who have anemia can also be at an increased risk. Try to find supplements or try a cereal that is high in this vitamin.
Use almonds in all your recipes which require nuts. They can be highly nutritious and assist you to decrease your blood choleseterol levels. In addition they maintain your protein levels up. Just as if that weren't enough, you can get almonds very cheaply.
Reduce the volume of sugar which you eat every day inside your meals. Over-usage of sugar may cause a variety of health problems, including severe heart issues. Rather, give Stevia or Splenda a test. The real difference will be unnoticeable.
Ginger is a good natural remedy to motion sickness. You can get ginger in capsule form. Beginning sixty minutes before leaving, take roughly 1,000mg of ginger, repeating the method every third hour. Ginger stops nausea and upset stomach, commonly felt when traveling. Ginger tea or ginger candy could prove helpful in this case.
If you are searching for a tasty option to your typical meal, try canned salmon. Canned salmon offers you healthy minerals instead of fat and carbohydrates. Eat a wide variety of foods to hold yourself from getting tired of healthy eating.
Nutrition plays a crucial role in wellness and health. This would explain the rise in the supplement and food craze. Keeping the details given within mind while you are shopping and eating should allow you to stay on the right track towards better eating..

Wednesday, October 31, 2012
My thoughts and prayers go out to all the families affected and/or devastated by hurricane Sandy. It's so scary to sit back and look at the big picture of our planet and how rapidly it's changing. What used to be considered storms of the century are now starting to happen every year. Thinking of our planet from this aspect is very similar to how a lot of inmates think about our lives in prison. It's a big fear of the unknown that always gets us. What's going to happen next? Is he going to get better, or is it going to keep getting worse? It's also the fact that we have no control over these major catastrophes that affect our lives in such a major way.

My mother sent me some more books from Amazon. They look like they're going to be a good read, one book is by Joel Osteen, he writes really good stuff, so I'm sure I'll enjoy his new one "I declare 31 promises to speak over your life". Mom gets me a lot of books to try and help me with my struggles in here. It is very helpful but if she keeps getting the books at this rate of speed I will have my own library in here. It's great, my bunky also reads my books and I really enjoy being able to have someone in here that also shares my drive and desire to make a change in our lives. I look forward to being able to share my books and help more people, maybe even have a chance to lead a class that teaches the Straight A Guide system being able to help and share with others is very helpful for me and is one of the many key ingredients to recovering from substances and living a better, successful and productive way of life for me, my children, my family and society.

Sweet 16. This is and will be one of the most memorable birthdays of my daughter's life, and I'm not in it. Correction, every time Caitlin looks back in life at her sweet 16 birthday she will remember that her father was in prison for. I hope and pray every day that my future success will play a huge role in how my daughter looks at me. I hope that Caitlin will see how my past struggles with addiction is what in the end led me to a much better life is a man and loving father. Happy birthday Caitlin. I love you, I miss you and I'm sorry I'm not there for your birthday. I'm diligently working on my life and turning around completely so that I can be a good father for you and Taylor, ensuring that I will never have to miss out on a single other birthday or special occasion of years once I'm released from prison.

I just spent an awesome two hours hanging out with my mother, talking about life family and our future. I cherish my mother deeply. She is so loving and caring. She has a way of comforting me just by looking at me. I only wish I could do a better job comforting her. I can see the pain that my imprisonment is causing her and it pains me to watch what my past drug addicted choices continues to cause her and the rest of my wonderful family.
My daughter Caitlin's birthday is tomorrow. She went to Kings Island with a few of her girlfriends, and then they all stayed at the hotel next door to Kings Island. I hope and pray that Caitlin as a wonderful sweet 16. I also hope she gets my card on time, for unfortunately this is the extent of what I can do for her on her birthday.

I get to spend some quality time with my mother tomorrow morning when she comes to visit me all by herself. I can't wait to see her one on one. Granted I love to see my father and children to but it takes the focus away from our conversations together. I've always felt so close to my mother. We have a type of bond that is like no other. I've always been able to open my heart to her and share things with her that I would never share with anybody else. I know in some ways this is unhealthy, for when I share too much, I know she carries the pain and the burden as if it's her own. So I am trying to find other more healthy ways of venting. Writing is one way of therapy but, also through writing I've gained healthy people that have reached out to me and open their hearts to me, thus helping me to open my heart to them consider them as an important part of my support group, strengthening my recovery and widening my road to a new and successful way of life.

Often I think about my life as a child growing up without a father. My life was a little different because I never even knew my biological father, Jim. It wasn't until I was 18 years old that I met him after he contacted my family upon his third release from prison. I've already wrote about Jim many times after I ran into him this last time in the County jail while awaiting to be sentenced. Growing up I made numerous promises to myself that I would always be there for my children before they were even born. Now look at me, I can't even be there for anything at all. I've missed out on so many important parts of their life and will continue to miss out for another 3 1/2 years. This is sickening to the thought. I can only imagine how my two beautiful children must feel; it was a little easier for me as a child because I never knew my father and I have an amazing mother. I know my children and I love them deeply, as I know they love me. My drug addiction has placed me in and out of their poor lives repeatedly and for that I can't imagine how much I've hurt them and torn their world apart.

I choose to continue to live the way I doing here, not because I'm afraid but, because I want a new life for myself and my family. A normal person would think it's easier to do what I'm doing staying in my cell, away from prison social life. Well it's not! I am a drug addict! I have 20 months of pure sobriety and it is not been easy. I have the means and resources to be intoxicated every day in here making the world around me easy and carefree, but I don't, I'm on a hard road, a path less traveled and I wouldn't change it for the world. Every day I thank the Lord for helping me to fight off the urge us to do drugs, drink hooch, smoke tobacco, join gangs for protection, get tattoos, etc.

Today I'm working to finish a card for my mother. Her birthday is also next week on November 3. These days in prison are really taking a toll on me. I never leave my cell but the loud thumps and thoughts and screaming voices outside our never the sound of cheerful laughter and harmony, it's just the opposite. It's always the sounds of cussing, yelling, fighting, threatening, etc. Plus disconnecting myself from these people in this world is much harder than you'd you think, the days feels so long and drawn-out, unlike everyone else in here, hanging out, whether or not they're getting into trouble they're breaking up the monotony, making time fly by. I however remain in my cell, alone, day after day. This makes it very hard to get out of my own head and stay positive about my current life situations. It also makes it very difficult to find new topics to write about day after day.
Monday, October 22, 2012
I'm really enjoying this book I've been reading called the Untethered soul by Michael Singer it helps me to better understand my thought process and how to change. This book sheds a different light on a problem that I've struggled with for many years of my life. For a long time now I thought about my problems with depression in the aspect that I would just have to find better ways of dealing with my depression. Will this book is helping me understand that I don't have to be depressed at all, I can control and change how my mind thinks, and I can overpower the negative voices in my head. And I can! It's working! I'm finally learning how to control and silences voices.

Today I'm trying to finish up the final touches on Caitlin's birthday card, so it gets to her house on time, or close enough to her birthday. This card is difficult for me to make. What do you draw for a young woman turning 16? What do I write? Caitlin is going to Kings Island with four of her friends than they're going to stay at the hotel right next door toKings Island. I hope that Caitlin has a wonderful time with your friends, making great memories of her sweet 16th birthday.
Aside from reading a good book here and there, and of course the amazing visits with my children family, these last few weeks have been uneventful on the outside of prison people tend to think that uneventful is a pretty boring way to live but, in here it's a relief knowing I continue to remain safe and sound. Prison news is just like the news on the television, all news is bad news and no news is great news. This of course gives me less to write in my journal but, it gives me more time and opportunity to focus on my life and work without stress.
Saturday, October 20, 2012
My daughter Caitlin's birthday is next Monday, the 29th. It's her sweet 16th birthday and I'm not going to be a part of it. This continuously makes me upset when I think about it. Being in prison continues to cause my family more, new pain. When ever my daughter looks back at her life, she will always remember where her father was on her 16th birthday and still another three birthdays after this one. I have been and will continue to be absent from so many important memories like Caitlin's graduation. Regardless of the pain associated with these thoughts, they also serve as a constant reminder of why it is imperative that I change my life and everything I do, every decision I make must be made with much thought and detail of every outcome. There can never be any more gray areas in my life.

A Difficult Gift
A Difficult Gift
By Dr. Bill Long
My three brothers and I made the decision to move our 88 year-old mother to Assisted Living and then, to Memory Care. Though the decision was taken after due deliberation, I was ill-prepared for
the bundle of powerful and conflicting emotions I felt in accompanying my mother in this last chapter of her life. While wallowing a bit too deeply in those emotions, I met with a friend to talk about it. Rather than joining me in my self-pity, he looked straight at me and said, "Bill, I wonder what final gifts she will bring to you in her new situation."
I wasn't ready to receive his kind words immediately, but as the weeks went on, I increasingly recognized the strange but real gifts that my mother is still bringing me—though unintentionally. First, through her final illness, we four brothers have had to work together as never before. We have had long conversations, traded emails, pursued different options and strategies, and realized the way that each of us is valuable not only for our mother but for each other. In a word, we have learned to love each other in new and special ways.
Second, through her final illness, I have gotten to know caregivers, mostly women, whose selflessness, patience, insight and compassion have been so evident that all I can do is marvel and express my gratitude. The true saints in my world now are hospice nurses and counselors.
Finally, through her final illness I have developed a deeper appreciation of my mother's life. As I see her fading away from us, I see her also trying to hang on, to recall life in Connecticut in the 1930s, to tell me things that are of little value to anyone but her alone. And I am so grateful for those little moments of human connection that I never knew were still left for us.
As others unwrap their presents big and small this year, I feel mine is already unwrapped for me, and it is a gift that I never thought I would appreciate.

I mentioned last week that one of my newest friends named Yvonne is an amazing cook. She and I are kindred spirits when it comes to cooking and food, and I've not tasted a single thing that she's made that I didn't absolutely adore.
Yvonne also hosts cooking classes and I was able to go to one recently. The theme: Mexican! Oh bless her heart, she knew exactly how to get to me 🙂 All this week I will be sharing her recipes from this Mexican meal. Each and every one was delicious and a little surprising, so when you see the titles each day don't assume it's the same old thing, because it definitely is not. This pico de gallo is pretty basic, but one of the best I've ever had so I felt it necessary to include it as an element of this meal.
Pico de Gallo
4 medium tomatoes
1 medium onion (sweet or red)
6 jalapeno (this is really more to taste)
1 bunch cilantro
1 T sugar
3 T lime juice
salt & pepper
Directions: Chop tomatoes, onion, cilantro, and jalapenos, all small enough to use on a chip. Add the rest and let sit in the refrigerator to chill for at least an hour. Leave in seeds at your discretion.

Christianity on Campus: Time for Our Voice to Be Heard
by Julie Loos
Working for two campus-related ministries and being the mom of a college student, I read a lot of research, hear a lot of reports and am all too aware of how precariously close we are to having the voice of truth, reason and Christianity silenced on campus. It's time for the body of Christ to speak up. The college campus is key in how the Christian worldview will be heard in the marketplace. And it will take all of us–from campus ministries, to churches and parachurch ministries, to parents and grandparents—to amplify that voice. It's time for clarity, empowerment and resonance.
Projecting with a Clear Voice—Apologetics Partnerships
You're probably familiar with the research. (If not, click here.) But the odds aren't good for our Christian college students to graduate with their faith intact. One glaring reason is intellectual skepticism about their faith fueled by the failure of parents and churches to train them in knowing what they believe, why they believe it and how to defend it–commonly referred to as apologetics. How can we expect students to reach their campus for Christ and change the culture if they can't confidently articulate their own convictions?
CLICK HERE for Amazon Kindle deals in Christian Apologetics: Over 100 titles from 99 cents to $5.99!
Whether a student has lost his voice due to skepticism, fear, confusion, or insecurity, there is a way to help. Give students "voice lessons" by partnering with a ministry who exists to serve other campus ministries. Ratio Christi is a student apologetics alliance that teaches how to defend truth and Christianity at the university. RC is seeing a clearer, more winsome voice for Christianity emerge through students who gain confidence and conviction in the reasons for their faith, who are engaging the culture on campus–both fellow students and professors.
We are seeing seekers, atheists, and agnostics visit our meetings and gain a better understanding of Christianity and its valid place in the marketplace of ideas. We are seeing conversions among students. And as the ministry approaches its fourth year, we are seeing graduates who are moving into the marketplace ready to be change agents in the spheres of influence God grants them. Encourage students to explore apologetics, partner with the RC chapter on your campus or, as other campus clubs have done—even atheistic ones–help get one started. Ratio Christi can help students cultivate a commanding voice for Christ, equipping them in conversational, relational, Christian case making.
Campus ministries working together can increase the clarity of the Christian message on campus and cut through the clutter of deceptive philosophies. Campus ministries can voice support for this by partnering–not competing–with one another on campus. Each part of the body of Christ has a role to play, and we function better when we work together.
Dr. Richard Land, president of Southern Evangelical Seminary and former president of the Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, pointed out the important role of apologetics today when he said…

Jennifer Wrynne: "It's something I think a lot of us ponder over, if only I could turn doing something I love into a business. That's the key though isn't it? To be pursuing your passion in life and making a living out of doing what you love. Getting up at 7am on a Monday morning wouldn't perhaps feel so bad".
Award winning Irish hat designer, entrepreneur and fashion blogger, Jennifer Wrynne, has managed to do exactly that. Starting out as a visual merchandiser for Louis Vuitton, little did she know that her hobby and a trip to the Cheltenham Races would propel her into the career of her dreams. Speaking exclusively to House Edit, Jennifer talks about following your gut instinct, her biggest inspiration and being in business for the right reasons.
How did Jennifer Wrynne Millinery come about, was running your own business always a dream of yours?
I was working in visual merchandising, which was creative but wasn't physically hands on. I always loved using my hands and actually making items. After a few trips to the Galway races, I fell in love with all the beautiful hats, the beautiful colours, shapes and sizes and I decided to just give it a go and make my own. I posted a picture of my hats up on Facebook and it got a good reaction. All of a sudden people wanted to buy the hats I was making. So that's how the business started. Just a hobby that turned into a business! I think I probably always wanted to run my own business, but if anything I always thought it would be in interiors because of my Mum and her curtain business. It just happened that I took a different direction
2. Running your own millinery business and now your own boutique, life must get busy? How do you juggle running a business, being a creative and keep that elusive work life balance?
At the minute there is no such thing as a work life balance. It's all work at the moment, but I enjoy my job and I see it as a creative outlet when I am making hats. When I'm in the boutique meeting customers, I see it as work but I don't see it as work. I enjoy it so much to be honest and I have a great team behind me. I now have seven girls working with me, so that kind of relieves the pressure.
3. What is the best piece of advice that you have been given?
I suppose in terms of my Mum and the millinery side of the business it was always to use luxurious materials. Very good quality fabrics and trims actually make the production side so much easier. It's almost a way of cheating making hats , by using really good quality silks, etc… Then I guess from a business perspective it was that you have the same amount of hours in the day as say Beyonce, Barack Obama or people like that. When you're running your own business to a certain extent you simply cannot count your hours. You just have to keep going until the job is done. The business essentially becomes your life.
4. Since opening your own business, what has been your biggest learning curve and greatest success to date?
I suppose for me when I started my own business, I got caught on a bit of a hamster wheel. I was just working day and night and I never actually took a step back from the business to look at it from the outside in. Last September I entered the entrepreneur of the year competition. It was a four week period where I had to step back from my business, look at it and evaluate. This is where the idea for the boutique came about. The business is now twice the size of what it was last year. It was because I took that step back to see what I was doing and how to make the most of my time that the business has grown. So I guess my best piece of advice is don't get caught on a hamster wheel!
Greatest success to date: I suppose when I won best dressed lady at the Cheltenham Races in March 2015. That was the biggest life changing moment for me and my business . At that time I had been working on my own for over three years. Just after that I employed four people. Business literally exploded. It was incredible and a bit stressful at the same time! To be honest it was completely unexpected and totally unplanned, which made things a little bit more challenging. But obviously, it had it's rewards!
5. Your biggest inspiration?
My biggest inspiration in terms of entrepreneurship would be my Mum. She is definitely the bones behind my business. Both creatively and business wise, Mum is the one that drives me in every aspect. So she is definitely the number one. In regards to celebrity, fashion and style it would be Kate Middleton. She is so elegant, very classic and really puts millinery on the map.
6. Your favourite 'app'?
Snap chat. The last six months Snap chat has been the number one thing driving my business and Instagram would definitely be number two.
7. What advice would you have for other woman who might be thinking about starting their own business?
The number one thing would be go for it and go with your gut. When I was thinking about the boutique, I had contemplated opening in Leitrim and obviously for a young girl from Leitrim opening a boutique in Dublin was a big thing. So I think it's just about going for it and if your gut is saying yeah, go for it. I think you have to be passionate about what you're doing or selling, because I think it will show through to your customers. If it's just about the money and all you want to do is make money in business, I'm not sure it will be as easy or as successful as if you are truly passionate about what you are doing.
Thank you Jennifer for your inspiring words.

The Count's Challenge, July 2011
Millions of people dream of seeing their name on the cover of a bestseller. Most
never do anything about it, but you can be the exception. Anyone can put pencil
to paper, or finger to keyboard, but if you want to be a real writer, make sure
you've got plenty of what it takes to get started, keep going, and get right to
The End...
Of words, reading, and readers. Playing with language and seeing how other
writers create characters, mood and atmosphere will help you develop your own
style. It isn't the number of words you write each day, or the length of them.
It's the feeling you put into your work. Always write from your heart, and
you'll speak directly to the hearts and minds of your readers.
Anyone can call herself a writer, but you only really earn that title once you
get the story down on paper. It's no good stored away at the back of your mind.
Give yourself a timescale, whether it's the closing date of a short story
competition, or the day you'll complete the first draft of your book. Don't let
anything distract you from your goal. Write every day. To begin with, just
concentrate on turning your ideas into words. Then go back over your work again
and again, editing and improving it every time.
Once your work is as good as you can make it, put it away and start a new
project. After a month, go back to your first piece and re-read it aloud to
yourself. If you're aiming for publication, when all the re-writes are finished,
give your manuscript to a trusted friend who reads the type of book, story, or
article you want to write. Ask them what they think, and accept their
constructive criticism as part of your learning curve. If one reader is happy,
there's a good chance your work will please a bigger audience.
If you're a writer, what are you working on at the moment? If you're a reader,
what are you reading right now? Leave a comment below to be entered to win a
signed copy of HIS MAJESTY'S SECRET PASSION.
Leo Gregoryan's determined to be the perfect king. Loyalty to his country means
sacrificing his own happiness, but he'll divert the energy he once poured into
his dream of becoming a doctor toward royal duties. All he needs right now is a
stress-free vacation–no future queen need apply.
Sara Astley escapes to the luxurious Paradise Hotel after she's dumped by her
partner, who then stole the promotion she'd expected. She hides her broken
dreams behind a tough exterior. Her stubborn streak makes her a challenge Leo
can't resist.
His special brand of hands-on persuasion seduces Sara into enjoying the holiday
of a lifetime. Their fling can't hurt either of them–or so they think. Leo's
focussed on being the ideal hero. Sara knows what she wants, and that's
independence. Then a revelation tears them apart, meaning things can never be
the same between them...
Christina Hollis
writes contemporary fiction starring complex men and independent women–when she
isn't cooking, gardening or beekeeping. Her books have been translated into more
than a dozen languages, and she's sold over two million books worldwide. You can
catch up with her on her blog, on Twitter, Facebook, and see a full list of her published books on her website. Her

Back in my younger days I used to write 'serious' and 'funny' poetry and short stories (especially for friends). I sometimes write down thoughts or if I had a significant dream.

Since I haven't worked up the nerve to write yet, I constantly read. I'm currently reading a book about a private investigator who is looking for a person who is missing. She is a socialite, so to speak, and the story takes place in seedier side of Paris, in the 1920's. Right now, he's trying to narrow down which person she has associated herself with, and whether she is still alive or not. The book is called The Bones of Paris by Laurie R. King. This isn't my normal genre, but this year I've decided to read "outside the box" so to speak, and this book I've had a hard time putting down. There are a lot of twists and turns to it, along with some interesting characters along the way. Thank you so much for the tips as well. One day soon I will get up the nerve to start writing!!(Peggy Roberson 11:08am March 19, 2015)

Well, that is weird! Looks like someone put an ad in the middle of the comments! At any rate, bless your heart, I may love to talk, but I seriously doubt that I would ever make a writer. I know my own faults too well. I am re-reading an old Georgette Heyer, Cousin Kate. It was a departure from her usual style since there was a mystery, a madman, and murder involved.

Most of the time I pick an OP/ED primarily on the strength of the song, with meaningful visuals being a plus if they are present. This is not the case with today's pick, which is impressive on many levels but most of all its storytelling.
Title: The Last Day of My Adolescence | Artist: Miyuki Sawashiro | Anime: Hanamonogatari
Depending on if you watch the Blu-Rays or the stream of the broadcast (available legally from Daisuki.net in the US) this sequence is either used as the OP or ED. SHAFT has always been a little offbeat with its Monogatari OPs, but it is consistent in some respects: the vocalist is always the voice actress of the heroine of the arc and the animation is always symbolic of the story. Rather than just symbolism, the animation for this particular OP/ED really impressed me with its storytelling. The sequence manages to condense an analogue of the whole Hanamonogatari arc (without being spoilery) in a way that only becomes more meaningful after you actually watch the whole story. Many shows opening or ending sequences incorporate elements to this effect (many OP/ED from this very series in fact), but rarely have I seen OP/ED's that hit it out of the park this well narratively.
Audio wise, the band and singer are really killing it in this song, with the abruptness of the breakdown about 30 seconds in being notable. I also find that listening to piano covers of OP/EDs to be quite eye opening. Removing the production and stripping away the vocals of Monogatari OPs in particular, can reveal some real beauty in these compositions:
Well if you enjoyed today's OP/ED then you will love the previous entry (perhaps my favorite OP song from all of Monogatari), Futakotome.
Jonuiuc is an occasional contributor of writing and photography on TAY and AniTAY. You will most likely see him in the comment sections of other author's articles, contributing to collaborations, or doing short posts (like this one) that are light on graphics and even lighter on editing. Jon normally prefers longer hair, but in Kanbaru's case, he may lean towards the short hair version. He doesn't like everything though, he just likes what he likes.
Inspired by the breakdown/bridge of today's OP/ED, the bonus non-anime related song is from one of my favorite female fronted punk/hardcore bands, Tsunami Bomb, it is the rifftastic song: Take the Reins.

What the most important features when buying a new mountain bike? Here are some of the many ones you should consider:
1. Retailer
The main types of retailers are brick-and-mortar and online. A good option is generally an independent bicycle dealer (IBD). The reason is you can get long-term benefits like after-sales service and warranty. So, if you have any mechanical problems with the bike, for example, it will be covered under the warranty. This can make your life easier since you can save a lot of money you'd otherwise have to spend if the bike had problems.
2. Programs
Sometimes you can get involved in work-related programs that help to pay for the bike fully or partially. This usually involves the company getting tax breaks if they buy bicycles for their employees. The different programs available will differ by country and region so it's important to do some research to find out if such a program exists where you live. If it does you have the chance to save a lot of money on your next mountain and possibly get it free. Just check on the details so you'll know what's required of you and your company.
3. Maintenance
In other words the average cost of yearly maintenance should be factored in when picking a mountain bike. Typically you'll have to buy things like tires, brake pads, seats, etc. from time to time. The quality of the bike you pick will have a big effect on how much maintenance you have to do. If you spend more money on a high-end bike it's very likely you'll just have to do a small amount of maintenance per year. On the other hand, if you pick an off brand then you should definitely expect to spend more on maintenance.
4. E-commerce
Have you considered buying your bike online? A major benefit is it's easier to browse tons of stores and bikes to find the right one for your situation. On the other hand, it's also a plus if you can visit a physical shop, see the bike in person and even give it a test ride. This can make it easier to pick the right MTB.
5. Type
The three main kinds of mountain bikes are rigid, hardtail, and full-suspension. There are key differences so it's important to consider factors like the type of mountain biking you plan to do. That in turn can help you pick the right bike for your needs. Make sure to do some research about the different types of mountain bikes. The differences might not seem major but they can have a major effect on your biking so it's critical to learn the basics about the different types of MTBs.
6. Budget
How much are you willing to spend and able to spend on your next mountain bike? Those are two different things so it's important to consider both. In particular, you should think about the budget you can realistically afford to spend on the mountain bike. If you don't' consider that factor you could end up spending a lot more money than you should on a bike.

Now everyone can cook chicken with KFC's secret recipe from 1940
Here's an easy fried chicken recipe you will want to see. For more than 67 years the Kentucky Fried Chicken company has carefully kept their popular chicken recipe a secret. That is until the Chicago Tribune newspaper published it. The newspaper got the original easy fried chicken recipe of 11 herbs and spices from Colonel Sanders's nephew. He found the easy fried chicken recipe in the notes of the second wife of the KFC company founder. You will want to take a look at the chicken recipe and try it for yourself. To start, you will take the flour and mix all of the spices in a cup. Take you will dip the chicken in cream, and wait until the excess drips off. Then you will put the chicken pieces into the mixture of flour and spices until all of the chicken pieces are covered. After shaking off the excess spices, you will then put the chicken pieces on a rack and leave for about 20 minutes.
This is one of the best way to fry chicken and its easy to do if you follow the directions. You might try using this easy fried chicken recipe and technique to perfectly cook your chicken every time. You start by making sure your chicken pieces are of even thickness. You can use a glass jar filled with something to pound the chicken. Then lightly salt and pepper both sides of the chicken pieces. Then heat a saute pan over medium-high heat, and add a drizzle of sunflower oil to the pan. Then saute one side of the chicken breast until it is golden brown which takes about one minute. Then turn over the chicken pieces over and reduce the heat to low, covering the frying pan and setting the timer for ten minutes, making sure not to take the lid of the pan. Then turn off the heat and let the chicken pieces sit for another ten minutes with the lid on the pan. After waiting the ten minutes your chicken pieces will be cooked to perfection, and you can slice them to use in stir fry's, on their own or in salad recipes.
Whenever you make an easy fried chicken recipe, you want to practice chicken and food safety. The following are just some of the simple tips to ensure that your kitchen is free of harmful bacteria. You will want to teach your everyone in your family these simple ideas to ensure that your home stays clear of food-borne illness. To start, always make sure to wash your hands properly. When you wash your hands, it is important to wash for at least 20 seconds before handling any food and especially after handling poultry, meat, eggs and seafood. You also want to make sure to wash your hands after touching the family dog or cat and after using the washroom. And while these habits might seem obvious it's good to remind yourself every now and again as it's easy to forget. It is also important to keep your kitchen work space clean. You want to be sure and clean and sanitize all countertops, cutting boards, and utensils with a mild bleach solution. These simple household tips and tricks should be done before and after any food preparation. By not practicing proper kitchen safety you and your family risk getting sick.
