Hey guys! Well I found this little thing called an Aquaboard and lemme tell ya, I loves it! It's like watercolor paper on masonite board. I was a little skeptical, but the paint sinks in nicely and there's no paper warp! So I'm going to take a walk around Portsmouth tomorrow and check out some galleries with my portfolio and these guys (or ladies) above. Wish me luck! I really want to try and do some gallery exhibitions. Also I'm on a big 1920s kick so these were fun regardless :)
I'm taking about a two month break from big conventions, My next being FanExpo in Toronto, then pretty much a show every week. But I'll be working on a a few card sets, some new illustrations, and possibly adopting a kitten soon! I needs me a little buddy. :D
Anyway, back to work I go, stay classy!

One of the greatest dreams of some individuals is to study abroad. These individuals are attracted to go abroad because of the quality of education being offered and the reputation of the universities overseas. Although few are lucky enough to afford studying outside the country, most of the people rely on scholarships, and it is quite difficult to get one. In winning a scholarship, one should have the best explanation of personal statement for study abroad. Thus, one should have an excellent statement of purpose writing.
What is SoP writing?
The statement of purpose, or simply SoP, is a document summarizing an application letter, letter of intent, an autobiographical essay and resume combined. In fact, most individuals are availing statement of purpose writing services in order to have a presentable document and be qualified to study abroad.
However, only few are able to pass the standards of some universities overseas. The principle behind this one is for the school to be applied should know the reason for application, the expertise in the chosen field, as well as the use of the degree once it is already finished.
The statement of purpose to study abroad may vary from one university to another. With this, one should follow the guidelines of the institution closely. Failure to adhere to the guidelines might become the cause of becoming not accepted into your choice university.
Preparing the statement of purpose writing
In creating a noteworthy statement of purpose for study abroad, one should display accurate information about himself. When planning to go abroad, the paper should include a strong academic record and activities in social organizations and other activities on campus. If you have working experience, you may include it in the paper as some scholarships may require it. Lastly, when study abroad, the statement essay must contain an arranged subject course that interested scholars should study in pursuing one's dream.
In achieving a perfect personal statement study abroad, one should make an earlier preparation. Having a good preparation entails a fine result in the long run. Nevertheless, have the perfect statement of purpose writing prepared when planning to study abroad.

One of my favorite trends as Vermont wedding planner that my business Harlow & Dahlia Events frequently sees is the use of wildflowers in our weddings.
Wildflowers are a breath of fresh air compared to the more complex arrangements often seen at weddings. Wildflowers such as hydrangeas and baby breath's are delicate, soft flowers that can really add a sense of romance to any wedding.
They can be used in a variety of different formats. My personal favorite is as a bride's bouquet, baby breath's in particular will look so beautiful with most wedding dresses in particular long flowing dresses.
They can also be used as centerpieces for guests tables. In fact I did this at my own wedding, I hand picked all of my centerpiece flowers at a farm and then later the rest were picked and arranged as my pieces.
You can use them as decorative pieces in spots such as the wedding cake table, diner buffet table or the gifts table.
Yet the most everlasting way to use flowers is on your hair. Any bride would look beautiful with natural wildflowers in particular for outside weddings!
Do you love wildflowers? Did you have them at your wedding? Would you like to feature them at your upcoming wedding?

Is your air conditioner running efficiently?
Here in Phoenix, we rely on our air conditioners most of the year. Because we rely so heavily on our air conditioners, it's incredibly important to ensure that your system is running efficiently. If your system is inefficient, you could be paying higher energy bills than you would with a more efficient system. But how can you tell how efficient your air conditioner is?
SEER Rating
The easiest way to find out how efficient your system is to check its seasonal energy efficiency ratio (SEER) rating. This rating is determined by taking the cooling output of a system in a typical season and dividing it by the energy used in watt-hours. The higher your system's SEER rating is, the more efficient it is. It used to be that threshold for SEER ratings was between 7.5 and 10.0, but in 2006, it was raised all the way up to 13. So if you purchased your system prior to 2006, there's a high likelihood that it is inefficient. Upgrading to a system with a higher SEER rating can make a huge difference in your system's efficiency. For example, upgrading to a SEER 13 from a SEER 10 will increase your system's efficiency by roughly 30 percent.
Although the SEER rating is the easiest way to tell how efficient your system is, even a system with a high SEER rating can operate inefficiently if it is in need of air conditioning repairs or maintenance. So how you can you tell if your once-efficient system is now inefficient? Here are a few signs to watch out for:
- Increased energy costs – When your system is working inefficiently, it means that it's working harder than it should have to to keep your home cool. The harder your system has to work, the pricier your energy bills will be.
- Ice on the compressor – Have you noticed a build-up of ice forming on your air conditioner? In most cases, particularly in older units, this is caused by a leak in the system's coolant, but coil damage can also cause ice to build up on your unit. Additionally, if you've been putting off replacing your system's filters, it can also cause ice to form on your unit. Regardless of what is causing the ice, it's important to consult an HVAC professional to get the repair or service you need.
- Increased cycling frequency – Have you noticed that your system cycles on and off more frequently than it used to? Like ice building up on your system, there can be many issues that cause an increase in the cycling frequency. One of the most common reasons for frequent cycling is a compressor issue. Your system depends on every component working properly in order to maintain its utmost efficiency, so it's important to get the compressor repaired as soon as you can.
- Unusual noises – If you've had your air conditioner for a while now, you've probably gotten used to the sounds that it makes when it's operating normally. Any time you hear rattling, clanking, banging or any other sounds that are out of the ordinary, it's a surefire sign that you have a problem on your hands. Whether the sound is caused by a broken component inside the system or an electrical issue, don't hesitate to get the HVAC service you need promptly.
Whether you are in need of air conditioning repair or maintenance, or it's time to replace your inefficient system with a new, high-efficiency air conditioner, contact Integrity Air Conditioning and Heating today. We are your go-to air conditioning service experts in Phoenix, and there's no issue that's too big or small for us to handle. Get your free quote today!

+ What do your hens eat?
Our hens are fed a balanced diet to provide all the nutrients they need. Sourced from a registered organic feed mill, the main ingredients are wheat, sunflower, peas, soya, full fat soya, maize, maize gluten, alfalfa and limestone - all organic and GM free
+ What breeds of hens do you have?
The main breeds are hybrids: Columbian Blacktails, Lohman Browns and Goldlines
Columbian Blacktails are a cross between Light Sussex and Rhode Island Reds, and other breeds such as Black Rock
Lohman Browns are a hybrid of Rhode Island Reds
Goldlines are a cross between Light Sussex and Rhode Island Reds
+ How are your eggs graded into sizes?
Each and every egg is weighed and, depending on which band it falls into, it is classified as Extra Large, Large, Medium or Small. The current Lion Code bands are:
X Large above 73g
Large 63-73g
Medium 53-63g
Small 53g and under
+ Why does shell colour vary and do brown eggs taste different to white ones?
Younger hens tend to lay darker brown eggs. As the hens get older, the colour of their eggs tend to become more varied. There is evidence to suggest that the hens' exposure to the sun's ultra violet light can cause the shells to become paler. However, there is no difference in taste or nutritional value between light and dark eggs
Pure white eggs come from different breeds of chicken like the White Leghorn and are much more common in the USA
+ What are 'mis-shaped' eggs?
'Mis-shapes' is just our own generic term for any egg that can't be packed as a Class A egg
This can be for a number of reasons. Some egg shells are a bit tarnished or dirty, or simply an odd or unusual shape - maybe they are bumpy or rather thin. However, there is no difference in taste or nutritional value between any of these and Class A eggs
They are very popular at our Farm Counter and at the London Farmers' Markets, because they are both great fun and great value. The thinner shelled ones are not suitable for boiling as they may crack in a pan of boiling water, but are fine for scrambling, frying, poaching or making cakes. Our customers have many different names for them at the London Farmers' Markets including 'uglies', 'seconds' and 'difficult childhoods'
+ What is the code printed on your Class A eggs?
Every Class A egg sold in the UK from flocks of more than 50 hens requires a unique farm ID number
Our eggs start with a '0' denoting organic and free range, followed by UK as country of origin and then by a 5-digit unique code that traces back to the farm
The first number on an egg represent the following:
0 Organic and Free Range
1 Free Range only
2 Barn
3 Caged
If an egg is classified as organic it will also be free range - organic criteria require hens to be free range
+ The shop I buy your eggs from isn't on the Egg Finder map - why is that?
The map shows all the locations that we deliver to directly from the farm. However, several times a week we also deliver our eggs to a couple of trusted wholesalers that we work with to expand the availability of eggs to areas that we just can't get to ourselves
+ What bodies are you accredited to and audited by?
Organic Farmers & Growers - the primary UK organic certification body who audit our farm and hens annually to ensure we meet the high standards they require and that we comply with all EU and British Organic standards
The Soil Association - an organic certification body similar to Organic Farmers & Growers, it also audits the farm and hens annually. Soil Association standards sometimes vary from Organic Farmers & Growers on certain issues such as hen house size
We are accredited to both as some of our customers specify the Organic Farmers & Growers standard and others that of The Soil Association
Freedom Foods - this is the farm division of the RSPCA who audit our farm annually to ensure we comply with all their requirements for hen welfare
British Lion Quality - a code of practice set by the British Egg Industry Council, the British Lion Code is an industry-wide standard for poultry and eggs produced in the the UK. Emphasis is placed on bio security, salmonella control procedures such as vaccination and environment testing. The standard is extremely comprehensive, further information can be found on their website
Animal Health Department of DEFRA - a government body that makes unannounced audits on us periodically to check we comply with UK and EU free range standards, placing particular emphasis on egg quality and grading procedures
County Council Trading Standards - we periodically have visits from the West Sussex County Council Trading Standard Service who check on egg labelling, packaging etc.
Local Council Services Department - we are also visited by Arun District Council Services Department with regard to our due diligiance procedures for egg handling and grading

Betrayed: Twitter sells old tweet archive w all our tweets
Over a year ago I left FaceBook and have never looked back due to FB's high-handed privacy abuses and other disturbing considerations such as Goldman-Sachs and possibly RUSSIA buying in, it was rumored.
(Also FB is a tremendous waste of time and I don't like to piddle around that much. Capricorn, you know.)
Yet I have appreciated Twitter but now it looks as if my days and nights as a tweeter may be numbered as well because Twitter has sold their tweet archive–the old tweets we all assumed had 'disappeared'–to corporate interests with clients lined up to take advantage of everyone's private information, including GPS details.
Peep eye!
Guess the little bird that told ya is now going to tell someone else who has the money to purchase your private information. Very bad form, Twitter.
(Dear Reader: tweet this or the above-linked article, if you care!)

Edition for
Parkett 60

This is the special, hand-stitched version of Luc Tuyman's shirt project "Silence" for Parkett 60.
To view the close-up of the hand-stitched face please view image 2 on the left.
Men's cotton shirt with reproduction of the artist's painting SILENCE, 1991,
shirt design by Walter van Beirendonck, 3 sizes (S, M, L). Hand-stitched version,
made by Trois-Quarts, Antwerp, Ed. 20/XXV, signed and numbered certificate
"Painting, like any memory, always comes too late and too soon. It mediates between the uncatchable moment of the past and a thought that springs from it. Luc Tuymans's pictures show this mediating relationship by including elements of the medial source after which they were painted: the fleetingness and the light of photographic paper, film or video stills."
Hans Rudolf Reust, Parkett No. 60, 2000
Out of print
"Luc Tuymans is a painter who uses photographs of emotionally or politically charged subjects … and transforms them into gray-toned, blurry, almost sinister copies of the original. By taking subjects that carry strong emotional associations, Tuymans is able to create facsimile copies of heavily loaded subjects such as "Silence", his custom made shirt with a silkscreen image taken from an earlier painting, and transform them into otherworldly, ghostly remnants of their former selves." -Artspace

This 15 minute mini documentary is worth your time. The ocean guarantees you nothing. The Right wave in Western Australia is one of the heaviest waves in the world. A few weeks back Mark Mathews held a camera and pulled into a wave behind Taj Burrow. The two Australian surfers have conquered one of the world's biggest and most dangerous waves off the Western Australia coast at the same time - and captured the whole thing on camera.
The difficult thing with surf photography is that a surf photographer has to deal with the ocean – the biggest and most unpredictable mass of matter on the planet. But Mark took a great photo. You can see the story behind the photo here.

Home grown rule will not save our World Cup hopes
Posted on August 6, 2010 by jim in England, English Premier League, FIFA World Cup, Home Grown Talent
The home grown player rule will help Britain's next World Cup attempt but is it enough?
Press recently about the 'home grown' players rule has been mixed. The home grown players rule is basically a quota that will apply to the Premier League only. Premier League clubs must name a squad of 25 players. Eight of which must have been trained in England or Wales for three years.
On the face of it this rule looks great for promoting home grown talent at the grass roots level. An unlimited number of under 21 players are allowed in the squad which add to this. After coming up through a youth academy Wayne Rooney has stated his support for the initiative, " vital to the future of England and the Premier League" Wayne said.
This is exactly right. The national team needs a boost and fresh talent if they're going to have a chance at future World Cup tournaments. Another plus point to the new ruling is that it should spice up the transfer market.
However, some important points have been left out of the press releases. The rule states players must have been playing in the UK for at least 3 years. So the players don't actually have to be English. Any foreign players already playing her for three years apply. But, it's a step in the right direction.
The Premier League has also boosted youth development by increasing the amount of coaching hours at academies. Hopefully the second step in this process will be to alter the rule so that it applies only to English players. Something we can possibly expect over the coming years.

At some level, we understand that our modern food system is not good for us. The trouble is that traditional, whole, and healthy foods seem to take so long and require so much work that we just give up!
The Homestead is here to solve that problem. There are five traditional foods that you can incorporate into your modern kitchen that will drastically improve your health and the health of your family without requiring you to get up at 5 AM!
This course is broken into four online lessons with a weekly online meet-up and a private Facebook support group.
"The support group helps you keep on track during the course and after the course is over," said Real Food Online Course participant, Marty Brown. "It is great to learn from other people and to see that you aren't alone in your struggle."
Lesson 1: Homemade Yogurt - this one simple food can easily fit into your weekly routine and loads you and your family up with beneficial probiotics and lets you control how much sugar goes into the once healthy food.
Lesson 2: Sourdough Bread- Whether you are gluten sensitive or not, fermented foods are easier to digest. Learning to make this easy loaf of sourdough bread goes a long way toward making your belly happy.
Lesson 3: Rendering Lard- Lard got a bad rep when margarine came on the scene. We now know that animal fats are good for our brains and digestive systems. Cooking oil is where many of us get stuck when it comes to healthy choices. This lesson teaches you how to make your own affordable, pure, and healthy cooking lard.
Lesson 4: Bone Broth - When you enter the traditional food world, you learn bone broth is the cornerstone to healing our guts from the onslaught of sugar and processed foods. Getting into the routine of making bone broth once a week is the foundation for good health in the kitchen.
Bonus: Cultured Vegetables - This bonus lesson was added on by popular request!
You will walk away from this course knowing:
1. How to make yogurt, sourdough bread, bone broth, cultured vegetables and how to render your own lard.
2. How to work these routines into busy schedules and tight budgets.
3. What materials and ingredients you will need.
4. What health benefits you and your family will enjoy from bringing traditional foods into your modern kitchen.
5. Where to find loads of information and reliable resources on traditional foods
The lessons are typically about an hour and you can watch them on your own schedule.
The Facebook Private Group is optional, but it is typically one of the favorite parts of our online courses.
The live online chats require Facebook and are conducted within the private groups.
You will have access to all the course material as long as you like.
You can email or message the instructor at any time with questions throughout the month.
You can register anytime during the month of the online course and catch up if you like, but we encourage you to join the community at the beginning to benefit from the one on one support from the facilitator.
Registration is for Members of The Homestead.

Op Art
Op art (optical art) is one of the branches of mid-20th-century geometric abstract art that deals with optical illusion. Representatives of this style sought to create on a flat surface the illusion of movement through the use of colour contrasts and geometric patterns. The most prominent representatives of Op art are Victor Vasarely, Bridget Riley, Julian Stanczak and Carlos Cruz-Diez.

Modern Residential Building Design
I have had the pleasure of working with Jeanie at Yosemite Drafting & Design Co. to develop renderings for Lawson Construction. Our clients are always impressed with the quality of which she executes projects. She has a talent for visualizing concepts and taking them into a tangible form. In addition she is full of great ideas and is constantly helping to improve on designs. I highly recommend working with Yosemite Drafting & Design Co.
The interior of the stone cottage guest home near Yosemite Park that we featured last week gives a clear view of the finished/distressed Douglas fir timbers. Our thanks to Lawson Construction and Yosemite Drafting & Design Co. for bringing us this project and for the finished photos! February 10, 2015.

Visiting the Farm
Mrs. Watterson gives us hugs,
and helps us search for bugs.
It is so much fun,
to run in the sun.
It is my style,
To climb the dirt pile.
We dig carrots so sweet,
Delicious to eat.
Johnny jump ups are the flower,
I could eat by the hour.
We glance at the clock,
Then run to the rock.
Our visit is done,
and we've had lots of fun.
- Kaylee O. age 8
A Poem from a Little Farm Visitor
Visiting the Farm

It is virtually impossible to tire of Greece. With 16,000 km of glistening Mediterranean coast, the opportunities to uncover new pockets of holiday perfection are neverending. Maybe it's the ancient splendour seeping from the stone, or the smell of pine and cyprus trees, or the rich flavours of food as fresh as it gets. Whatever it is, Greece feels good for the soul. Add to the mix a luxury resort, tastefully designed with privacy and tradition in mind, and you've found yourself a rather restorative break.
Article published on Running in Heels, May 2015
Danai Beach Resort is nestled into a cliff on the edge of the lesser-explored, spindly peninsula of Sithonia in Halkidiki. Between lively Kassandra and the reclusive monastery of Mount Athos, Sithonia is a perfect mix of the two locations – just an hour from Greece's second largest city, Thessaloniki, but a world away. Here pine forests, bustling harbours and ancient hillside villages dip down to some of Greece's finest beaches. And it's all up for grabs – if you can tear yourself away from Danai, that is…
Security guard Spiros and his over-enthusiastic pug waved us into Danai through large white gates, which open from scrubland into the splendour of an immaculately run five-star beach resort. Paths were lined with pomegranate trees and buildings encased with the vibrant pinks of creeping bougainvillea. The large marble atrium of reception led us onto an even bigger terrace, looking out over the resort, which is just a stone's throw from a 180-degree panorama of Mediterranean sea.
Onto the suites and the views only got better. Our two-bedroom pool suite offered all the indulgence of a hotel with the privacy and independence of a villa. Interiors and artwork were refreshingly eclectic – especially given the vast size of the resort. An antique drinks cabinet sat comfortably alongside modernist leather chairs whilst pretty wrought iron sun loungers looked out over a slick infinity pool. The bathrooms were chambers of dark, traditional marble whilst the master bedroom was filled with light from a glass wall of uninterrupted sea and sky. The terrace, perched on a cliff above Danai's private beach, offered a view and slice of privacy it was hard to drag ourselves away from.
Since the resort is family-run, nothing was standardised, personal touches were paramount and service was genuine. The resort's indoor and outdoor pool, gym and spa have everything we needed in a refreshingly moderate manner (no excessive free form pools here). The beach, on the other hand was as luxurious as you like. The large sandy cove was lined with perfectly-positioned sun loungers made up with the softest white linen and bold orange parasols, reflecting the colour of the crumbling cliffs behind. Vast beach beds were surrounded by white canopies floating in the breeze and waiters dressed in pressed white shorts tended to our every need. 1950s beach glamour flashed to mind and quickly Danai resembled something of a film set.
This theme continued on through to breakfast. A pianist graced our buffet of fruits, yoghurt, honey, eggs, fresh bread and pastries, which were served up on fine china in a conservatory filled with orchids and palms. Dining options were plentiful with everything on offer from The Squirrel's award winning A La Carte menu to the Seaside Grill's seafood BBQs and Greek feasts. The Seaside Bar dished out gourmet salads and burgers, cocktails made to order and an unashamedly 'Ibiza' vibe. Dining 'experiences' available included wine tasting in the resort's 750 bottle strong wine cellar, dining under the stars on the beach or in Danai's vegetable and herb garden. With a terrace like ours, room service was an experience in itself.
If you are looking for a slice of luxury with warm Greek hospitality and impeccable service, look no further. What this traditional, family-run resort may lack in 'boutique' cool, it makes up for by oozing timeless class.
For culture vultures and shopping enthusiasts Thessaloniki is worth a day at least – Greece's second largest, the city is bustling with life and not at all touristy. Halkidiki's three peninsulas each have a character of their own and Sithonia, where Danai is situated was the winner for us. Nikiti old village sits below Mount Itamos and is home to some of the region's oldest houses. If a spot of history is on the agenda, this is the best place to do it; ideally accompanied with Greek yoghurt, honey and coffee on the terrace of an 18th century cafe.
For seafood, head to Maramas where the fishing boats coming and going from the pretty harbour ensure the calamari is as fresh as can be. Nikiti's more modern seafront is also worth a visit and is just a short walk from Danai. When it comes to beaches there's everything from the wild and remote south to sheltered Vourvourou on the East, but our favourite was Karidi. No buildings or hotels, this beach has it all—soft, gently shelving white sand, crystal clear waters, rock pools, forest, dunes and just a couple of ice cream vans for sustenance.
We travelled to Danai Beach Resort & Villas with Elegant Resorts, with a seven-night stay costing from £1,565 per person. Price is based on two adults sharing a Junior Suite on a bed and breakfast basis, including economy flights from London Gatwick, private car transfers and UK Airport Lounge passes, calid until 10 October 2015. For further information please contact Elegant Resorts Reservations on 01244 897515 or visit the Elegant Resorts website. EasyJet flies from Gatwick to Thessaloniki up to six times a week with prices starting from £32.99 per person (one way including taxes). See the website for more details.

CCI makes a lot of great, well-known ammo like the Speer Gold Dot or Speer Lawman. They also make the Blazer line of ammo that comes in either a brass case or an aluminum case. And that's what we want to talk about now, is the Blazer 9mm aluminum case, full-metal jacket ammo.
The ammo I tested is a 9mm 115 grain. It's got a lightweight aluminum case. It doesn't really seem to function a whole lot differently from a brass case, it just means you can throw a few more rounds in your range bag without weighing yourself down a whole lot.
I tested the ammo in several different 9mm pistols, and it functioned great in all of them. I didn't have any problems with feeding or reliability. I also did an accuracy test from the bench at about 15 yards. It was reasonably accurate, not what I'd call match accurate. But it was consistent and definitely accurate enough for practice or for plinking.
Since the case is aluminum and not brass you can't reload it, but if you're not someone who reloads, then why spend the extra money on the brass you're just going to throw away? Overall, Blazer aluminum represents a great value for people who like to shoot a lot but don't reload.
great range ammo if you dont reload...

Blazer 9mm Aluminum is the most reliable and affordable target ammo I have ever found.. Same goes for the .40 S&W Blazer aluminum for my Ruger KP944D. Again awesome.
I have over 350 rounds through the Defender and 1400 through the KP944D and not one FTF, FTE, or stove pipe.. They just keep going and going.. Love it!

I received a case of Blazer 9mm, 115 grain, ball ammo just a couple of days after ordering. Order confirmations and tracking updates were great. No problems with any round in terms of feeding, firing or accuracy out of an MP 9.
The price was better than anything I could find in So Cal stores.

CCI Blazer ammo is consistent, reliable, and well priced. Perfect for a day at the range!
I have been shooting Blazer ammo at the range for years and use CCI Speer Gold Dot in my carry gun. I haven't had any issues with either.
I will continue to buy CCI Blazer ammo and would recommend to anyone who hasn't tried it yet to give it a SHOT. : )

Great Ammo
Review by Ternorm. (Posted on 6/9/12)
Customer rating:
I have gone through approximately 3,000 rounds of this ammo and have had only bad round that didn't fire. The bullet completely separated from the casing when it was chambered. Beyond that I love this ammo and use it for both practice and in competition. The price is great for the quality you get. I shot some Blazer Brass when I was unable to get this ammo and I had several stove pipes with that ammo. From my experience this ammo is better than the brass. The negative on this is from time to time when I need a re-order, the ammo is not available. So, I guess I really should be criticizing it instead of saying good things about it. It makes my supply harder to come by!

Good ammo for the price
Review by norte. (Posted on 10/25/11)
Customer rating:
I have purchased 1500 rounds of this ammo in the last few months and have shot about 1300 rounds. I used the ammo in a recent competition and had no problems with it. Of the 1300 rounds I have shot to this point, I have not had a single malfunction but everyone round has fired perfectly. The only thing I notice about this ammo is that it does leave small silver dust size deposits in the weapon. This is easily removed during cleaning.

Not a big fan of 9mm, so I don't reload for it. This ammo lets me shoot and not worry about picking up the brass. So far no complaints,no failure to feed, no squibs. Will by more!

Allowing ourselves the freedom to surrender into the present moment is a profound and joyful 'letting go.'
Only our fears, expectations and preconceptions hold us back from realizing the true potential of what is right here and right now!
We have so many preconceived 'agendas' as to what we think should be; as to how things should work out and yet 'life' hardly ever happens just as we would like.
Most often the things we want we do not get and the things that we don't want come uninvited and all the while the unwelcome shadows of impermanence and disappointment are ever trailing us, so that when we actually do get something we want, we must be alert, for it can be snatched away from us at any moment.
When we carry preconceptions in our mind and heart we can never hope to find real happiness or peace in this world because the reality of what is unfolding moment to moment is almost never what we expect.
There fore, life ends up being one long disappointment.
Drop the agendas; let go of expectations; free the heart from hope and fear and what do we have?
Moment to moment choice-less awareness of what 'is.'
It may not be a 'tropical island' but it is the ever present abiding essence and its inmost nature is spontaneous 'joy.' That 'joy' is within the grasp of each 'conscious,' living being.
In the graphic and highly relevant words of Chogyam Trungpa;
"We can hold back, not really surrendering because we feel that we are very genteel, sophisticated and dignified people.
"Surely we can't give ourselves to this dirty, ordinary 'street-scene' of reality.
"We have the feeling that every step of the path we tread should be a lotus petal and we develop a logic that interprets whatever happens to us accordingly.
"If we fall, we create a soft landing which prevents sudden shock.
"Surrendering does not involve preparing a soft landing, it means just landing on hard, ordinary ground, on rocky, wild country-side.
"Once we open ourselves then we land on what is."
And 'what is' is always waiting for us to notice it!
From moment to moment, day to day, week to week and year to year; the 'awareness' that fuels the entire 'drama' of life; be it pretty, be it harsh, be it stressful, or satisfying, that 'awareness' awaits the moment of our 'recognition.'
So open the doors to your mind and heart and take that leap of 'surrender' into the present moment of whatever arises...

D23 Lights Up the Season at Walt Disney Studios
Back in the halcyon days of yore, Walt Disney Studios would open their doors once a year for a Magical Holiday Faire. It started as a craft faire for studio employees in November, right before Thanksgiving, and at some point they opened their doors and began welcoming the public. It wasn't announced or advertised in any way, but word of mouth spread and by the time I started going in 1999, the lines were long, but it was always worth the wait.
When else could you walk the hallowed streets where history was made? The animation building, the studio theater, and the art deco sign at the corner of Mickey Avenue and Dopey Drive are awe-inspiring if you're a Disney fanatic.
There were annual sweatshirts and pins to purchase, character photo ops, free film screenings in the studio theater, crafts for the kids, and the opportunity to shop the Disney studio store. In other words, an absolutely magical experience. I went year after year.
2003 was the last year the Holiday Faire was held, due to increased security concerns. At least until they quietly brought it back a few years ago, but only for Disney employees.
This year the event, now re-christened Light up the Season, was extended a day for the benefit of D23 members. D23 is the official Disney fan club, and they hold all sorts of awesome events including VIP studio tours and the three day D23 Expo.
This year's event was very similar to the Magical Holiday Faire's of the past. The one major change was the timing, the Holiday Faire's were held during the day on the weekend, and this was a nighttime event. But other than that, all the old favorites made reappearances. Sorcerer Mickey and Pluto were out for photo ops, as well as a roaming Santa. You could watch Disney holiday shorts in the studio theater, or stop in the commissary for a cup of Walt's Chili. There was complimentary hot chocolate (that ran out much too early), cookies, and popcorn. There were also an large assortment of carnival-style game booths where you could play games for Disney prizes.
The studio store was open to the public, and the line to get in was nearly as long as the line to check-out. There was also a Mickey's of Glendale pop-up store in the historic Hyperion bungalow selling Imagineer gear. The Melo-D23 Choir were on hand providing Christmas carols and there was a tree-lighting ceremony followed by holiday snow. And of course, being a craft-fair, there were vendors. Many were Disney-centric, such as Vault 28, Marceline's Confectionery and Photos from the Walt Disney Archives, while others offered yummy holiday treats.
In short, the event lived up to the legacy of its famed predecessor, and I hope it returns in 2016.

Top lawmakers are reportedly not authorized to review some emails held on Hillary Clinton's personal server because the classified intelligence they contain is too sensitive.
This news follows a report that some of Clinton's communications held intelligence from the government's ultra-secret "special access programs," which is more sensitive than information classified as "top secret."
Recent Stories in Politics
Fox News, citing a source close to a recent intelligence review, reported that some lawmakers on key committees probing Clinton's emails do not have authorization to view intelligence from special access programs and thus cannot review messages that contain it. These include senior members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
In order to review these messages, the lawmakers need to meet additional security requirements, such as signing non-disclosure agreements.
In a letter to senior lawmakers this month, the inspector general of the intelligence community revealed that the recent intelligence review had identified "several dozen" additional classified emails on Clinton's personal server, some of which contained information from special access programs (SAP).
"To date, I have received two sworn declarations from one [intelligence community] element. These declarations cover several dozen emails containing classified information determined by the IC element to be at the confidential, secret, and top secret/sap levels," I. Charles McCullough III wrote in the letter. "According to the declarant, these documents contain information derived from classified IC element sources."
Access to intelligence from special access programs is restricted to an absolute minimum to protect intelligence sources and methods.
Clinton, a Democratic presidential candidate, responded to the findings in an interview with NPR, insisting that the revelations in the letter changed nothing. Clinton has repeatedly claimed that she never sent nor received information marked classified on her personal email.
Clinton spokesman Brian Fallon also accused McCullough, who was nominated to his post by President Obama, of coordinating with Republicans to damage Clinton ahead of the 2016 election.

Snowberry Quarter
Snowberry Quarter is conceived as a delightful mixed use quarter laid out around a network of intimately scaled tree lined streets.
Buildings vary in height being typically 1 to 4 stories. Taller buildings are located on the wide street running around the edge of the development. Streets running across the site have a more intimate scale being only 1, 2 and 3 stories high.
A new corner shop and Community Hall are located at a prominent intersection, where buildings rise to form an elegant and slender 6 storey feature tower. Additional non residential uses are pepper potted around the site. There is to be a pub, a nursery school and doctors surgery.
In all locations streets are heavily overlooked by residents on either side. Balconies terraces and numerous front doors create a sense of ownership and the opportunity for people to personalise the front of their properties... pots, deckchairs and hanging baskets.

Redken All Soft
I have used this shampoo for many years and always seem to come back to it. It's not too terribly expensive compared to some, and it makes my hair oh so soft. The Redken all soft line also makes a heavy cream super treatment that I use once a week. It's amazing. If you have dry hair, give this stuff a try. It smells nice and light too. The best!

"Often when research projects are being conducted, numerous reports are received from concerned anglers about suspicious sampling gear in the water," said Green River Fisheries Biologist Craig Amadio. "The project begins in late October and anglers may observe nets in the water until the reservoir freezes. This is an important research project that will help us learn more about the illegally introduced burbot population and will ultimately assist with burbot suppression efforts and future management of the fishery. Any disturbance or damage to the nets will hinde rthe project."
Amadio said the goals of this research project are to identify the extent of seasonal movement by burbot and evaluate the primary prey that constitutes its diet.
"Seasonal movements of burbot will be determined by radio telemetry tracking of fish that are implanted with ultrasonic telemetry tags," Amadio said. "Each burbot that receives an internal telemetry tag will also have a green external tag on their back with USU contact information. Anglers need to look for these tags and release any tagged burbot they may catch this winter. Typically, we encourage anglers to harvest and remove all burbot they catch from Flaming Gorge, but this is a unique situation and any tagged burbot needs to be released immediately."
"In addition to the information gathered from the research, each telemetry tag costs $500, so they are very expensive," Amadio said. "If an angler happens to inadvertently harvest a tagged burbot, we are asking that they retrieve the internal telemetry tag and return it to the Green River Game and Fish Office so it can be used on anotherf ish for the study."
Amadio said burbot will be tagged at eight different locations throughout the reservoir and will be tracked through next spring. By identifying when and where burbot spawn in the reservoir, biologists and anglers will be able maximize removal efforts in those areas to limit burbot reproduction.
"The diet portion of the research project will help biologists better understand the current and potential future impacts burbot may have on other fish species in the reservoir," Amadio said. "Burbot are very aggressive predators and feed on anything they can catch. Crayfish appear to be their main prey source, but we have confirmed that burbot also feed on kokanee, rainbow trout, and smallmouth bass. Another disturbing trend observed in recent years is burbot feeding on both kokanee eggs and lake trout eggs while those species are spawning during fall. We are very concerned about the impact burbot predation might have on these important sport fish populations and this research project will help us assess the extent of the problem."
For more information about the burbot research project, call the Green River Game and Fish office at (800)843-8096 (in-state only) or (307)-875-3223.

7 Things to Consider When Planning for a Successful Multi-Day Hike
Planning my next hike
My feet are itching, my heart longs for nature...
Working full time means we don't always have the luxury to go on vacation whenever we want, but rather have to find the destination within allotted free time.
The second half of February is winter break at my school. Which means: I have two weeks to go hiking! It is also a lovely coincidence that my 40th birthday is just a day before that.
One more reason to give me a present! But where should I go to? That's a decision that requires careful planning.
For a short while, I considered winter hiking.
But then reality and common sense hit hard. I do not have the experience and know-how to do it alone, and buying the extra winter gear would just break my bank. And so my search had begun…
This post, in addition to awesome tips and info, contains affiliate links. It means, that if you click and buy something I receive a tiny commission at no extra cost to you. Thank you for your support!
What are the factors everyone should take into consideration when searching for the perfect match?
1. Budget
There is no way around it - this one is the most important when planning your next hike. Before you start to look into possible destinations, you must now (roughly) how much you can spend.
I wish I could go to New Zealand for my trip, something I've been dreaming about for the past fifteen years, but it is simply beyond my current budget.
And also probably silly to go there just for two weeks with how long you have to spend on getting there and back.
Thinking about hiking destinations in February, my heart would gladly look toward exotic islands and far-away lands.
But my rational mind is pretty ruthless: I can only afford Europe with budget airlines. And no islands.
What are your needs?
The budget will set also the kind of accommodation you need to research. Do you want to stay in a hotel each night?
Are you a self-professed queen of camping cuisine or do you plan on eating out?
Do you need any new gear or clothes? Those can be really expensive!
Take it all into consideration, always budget for extra emergency spending and also little pleasures.
I prefer to save on hotels and such, but want to be able to step in for a coffee or try local cuisine once in a while.
Learning from my own mistakes
When I was planning my Scottish hike, I thought I created a very good, balanced budget.
Boy, was I wrong!
Three times I withdrew extra money and basically doubled my budget.
What went wrong?
Two things: firstly, I wanted to be too stingy with myself; secondly, I miscalculated how much would be spent on small things: local bus tickets, extra food, access to Wi-Fi, extra socks I had to buy…
Only after a long hike, you know what a pleasure it is to sit in a nice pub and have a cup of tea or stop on your way for a hot soup.
Don't be too hard on yourself, allow for those pleasures and morale-boosters!
2. Climate
I don't assume I knew what the weather was like in February anywhere – I tried to read on it as much as I could. I also had to consider anomalies and possible "colder than regular" situations.
Very often the information I found was about a much bigger area, which included valleys, shores, and hills or even mountains, which obviously must have big differences in daily minimum temperatures or precipitation.
If you plan on camping - check your sleeping bag and make sure it can provide comfort at least 5 degrees below what is expected to be.
Be aware that the more you hike the less warmth your sleeping bag provides because it accumulates moisture.
Whenever we pack we must take extra set of dry clothing and prepare for colder than expected weather. If you want, you might want to take a look at this 3-season packing list for women. And remember - never wear cotton!
If you are just starting collecting the right hiking attire, take a look below to see what's out there.
Can't see anything? Try refreshing the page.
3. Getting there
That's an obvious one when planning a hike.
Are there direct flights from my location to the place? What are the prices?
Are there extra fees for checked-in luggage? Is it easy to get from the airport to the actual start of the trail?
Some budget airlines use smaller airports away from your destination and it might actually be better to buy more expensive flight getting you in a more convenient place.
Figuring out local transportation isn't easy and trying to make it for the once-a-day bus and then miss it might be a real bummer.
The party-poopers
I have seen some great locations and was tempted by hiking on Crete or other wonderful islands… but the ticket prices were just too high.
In some cases, the only advice I found was "hire a car at the airport". I don't have a driving license and I don't want to get one, so that's also out.
Sometimes the only way to get from point A to point B is by hiring a taxi, which can be really expensive.
4. Accommodation and food
My favorite system is to wild sleep in my tent for two or three nights, then one night at a regular campsite (or a small B&B/hostel) to use their facilities.
Each country might have different laws concerning wild camping and this need to be checked ahead of time.
The easiest to wild camp are northern countries – Scandinavia and Scotland, and as much as I love them, I don't want to go there in February.
This time I budget to cover a couple of nights in a hotel on the way, as that might be the only way to get a proper shower and washing facilities.
Another thing to have in mind – some places might be seasonal only and be still closed.
Connected to the issues of accommodation is the knowledge of where you can buy food on the way. Although it is possible to carry food for two weeks, it is nice to refill with something fresh on the trail.
In my case, another consideration is access to gluten-free food, which is not obvious. So some staples (like GF oatmeal or powdered soups) I have to carry with me for the whole trip.
All the more so I would like to be able to buy fresh cheese, sausage or snacks on the way.
What are your dietary needs?
Do you have any special dietary needs?
Make sure you think about them ahead of time. Check if the country you plan on visiting has laws about allergy and sensitivities disclosure on product's packaging.
If things you can eat are rare – take them with you or plan on going close to big towns and cities where there is a higher chance of finding them. If you are, like me, on a gluten-free diet you may check out this article for a few tips.
5. Length of the trail
Another factor when planning your hike is the length of a trail.
Even the most magnificent trail won't do if it's just one-day thing, far from any civilization (and buses or trains).
When you have two weeks, you probably want to spend them hiking, not trying to get from the end of one short trail to the start of the next one. That's what I did in Scotland – I looked into the long-distance trails because it was just so much easier to plan the trip that way.
I looked into the ultra long-distance trails in Europe that crisscross the continent in various ways in hopes of finding a segment of it that doesn't lead through high mountains and is pretty easy to get to and from.
6. Flexibility
Planning your itinerary too rigidly might be quite risky.
A lot of things can happen on the way. And if it's your first time hiking (or the first time with a big backpack, the first time in such climate, the first time after a serious illness, etc.) – you might be surprised with what your body can or cannot do.
When I first planned my trip to Scotland, I relied on other people's descriptions and was sure 25 km/day was a regular, easy thing to do.
It might be for someone else – but not for me. If I reserved my accommodation or bought tickets based on an itinerary like that, I would either lose them or pushed myself beyond what would be healthy or pleasant.
Just read here about my adventures in failing at the Cape Wrath Trail and changing plans when needed. If you still feel that changing plans or stopping earlier than planned are a sign of weakness, read this article - I'm a Quitter and Proud!
Taking this into consideration, I looked into trails that would have a few "exit points" – both for the case where I walked much less than estimated, or if I had such a good walking experience that I would end up much farther down the trail.
7. Safety and individual abilities
I am pretty sure this one is much more obvious to women than it is to men.
Before my first solo trip to Scotland, I read extensively on hiking safety with a special focus on solo female hikers.
I searched through forums, blogs and articles. Based on my own experience and simple common sense, the more remote the trail, the safer it is for women.
From my perspective, I don't worry much about fellow hikers whom I meet somewhere up there, after many miles on a trail.
I worry about "Sunday tourists" who go out to nice places for a day or two, have a few beers and then a walk in the mountains to see a famous rock formation.
If you plan on visiting country that you have never been to before or is quite far from what you are used to - research it.
Check their customs and political situation. You don't want to find yourself hiking along a popular drug-smuggling trail...
Another safety issue? Hunting. Now that can be a completely different level of danger. Check if your spot isn't the mecca for hunters or if your chosen dates aren't on the schedule for organized hunts.
Your health and abilities
The second part of safety issues is your own abilities and health.
How fit are you? What kind of trails is safe for you? There is no competition and we do not need to prove anything to anyone. If the description says "only for experienced hikers" - ask yourself if that's you.
I had to learn my own weaknesses as well as strengths while solo hiking.
Telling myself that it was OK to walk slower, to sleep longer or to take rest more often was necessary.
It is hard not to compare yourself to others when they pass you on the trail. It is about the journey, nature, views... the serenity and peacefulness. It's about knowing oneself and own abilities. Particularly when solo hiking this is a thing of paramount importance.
It is OK to push your boundaries and go out of your comfort zone.
It is not OK to jump into something completely beyond own capabilities.
So where am I going in February?
Taking all those points I looked into locations around the Balkans and Greece, Italian shore, Spain, and Portugal. Finally, I decided on my birthday gift: a section on the Spain's GR 1: Sendero Histórico starting in Argus, near Huesca.
[EDIT: because of the wintry conditions in Argus, I have changed my plans again. You can read all about my search for the perfect hiking trail near Barcelona here.)
Why? That's for another time :)

The Santa Barbara International Film Festival, one of Southern California's key awards-season showcases for Oscar contenders, has chosen "Inception" director Christopher Nolan as recipient of its highest honor, the Modern Master Award.
Last year's winner was "Avatar" director James Cameron, who received his award in a ceremony attended by California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. Previously, the award has gone to Michael Douglas, Peter Jackson, George Clooney, Anthony Hopkins, Clint Eastwood and Sean Penn, among others.
"Every one of Nolan's films has set a new standard for the film community, with 'Inception' being the latest example," SBIFF executive director Roger Durling said in a press release announcing the choice.
Like the Palm Springs International Film Festival in early January, the Santa Barbara festival programs a wide variety of films but also schedules a full slate of tributes, awards and panels, most of which feature actors and filmmakers likely to be in the thick of the Oscar race. (The tricky part for Santa Barbara is that Oscar nominations will be announced just before the festival begins.)
Nolan's previous films include "The Dark Knight," "Batman Begins," "Memento," "Insomnia" and "The Prestige."
The Modern Master ceremony will take place on Sunday, January 30, 2011 at the Arlington Theatre in Santa Barbara. The festival itself will run from January 27 through February 6.
