At last year's InvestmentNews Retirement Summit, Lazetta Rainey Braxton approached me and asked if I had a few minutes to chat.
Deducing that I attend many industry gatherings in a given year, she asked if I ever noticed the low participation of minorities at financial adviser conferences and other events.
Ms. Braxton, founder and chief executive of Financial Fountains LLC, a fee-only advisory firm, asked me this question out of frustration, as she is often one of only a handful of minority professionals at the conferences she attends.
Her greater concern, however, was her inability to identify minority colleagues with whom to collaborate on developing best practices and approaches to overcoming biases and challenges affecting minority financial services professionals.
Ms. Braxton explained how she relies on industry events and professional organizations to build her network of trusted colleagues — and how she would like more opportunities to connect with peers.
I encouraged her to attend a session, "Interview with John Rogers: The Importance of Diversity in the Financial Services Industry," at the 2010 National Association of Personal Financial Advisors annual conference. Mr. Rogers is chairman and CEO of Ariel Investments LLC.
Ms. Braxton took my advice. I contacted her soon after and suggested that she write an opinion piece for InvestmentNews about racial diversity in the financial services industry.
Ms. Braxton wrote an insightful Op-Ed and we published it Aug. 15, 2010.
Last week, Ms. Braxton informed me that the Financial Planning Association had recognized her as a top professional who is working to raise awareness of diversity issues in the financial planning profession. Ms. Braxton, one of three recipients of the FPA Diversity Scholarship Award, said the Op-Ed helped get her message out.
"Several African-American financial services professionals sent me e-mails stating their appreciation of my willingness to write the piece and my approach to the issue," she said.
I asked Ms. Braxton what she would like to see come out of all this. "My ultimate goal is for the FPA [diversity committee] to leverage FPA's commitment, resources and platform to build a strong network of minority financial advisers within FPA's membership and through partnerships with other targeted organizations," she said. "I would also like to see an increase in the visibility and voice of minorities in the profession."
Ms. Braxton said that the industry in general needs to become more minority-friendly.
What's needed is a dedicated initiative to research and address the needs and desires of minority investors and advisers, she said.
She said financial services organizations need to signal an earnest commitment to help all their members/employees/practitioners to be productive advisers and equip them to serve the needs of minority communities, in addition to the other communities that advisers serve.
Ms. Braxton believes that minority financial professionals will begin to embrace industry efforts when these organizations have incorporated minority feedback into their leadership structure and business practices, such as inviting minority speakers for conferences and webinars, and offering topics geared to minority professionals and investors.
She also believes that industry organizations must find ways to serve as a resource for minority organizations whose constituents would benefit from professional financial advice or exposure to career opportunities in financial planning.
Once these organizations receive buy-in from minority professionals and consumers, constituents will become advocates and will enthusiastically promote these organizations as minority-friendly and progressive, she contends.
Ms. Braxton said it would be great if various industry organizations found ways to utilize their collective influence to address their mutual commitment to serve the growing minority consumer base and to recognize the value of having diverse perspectives when providing financial planning to consumers.
I asked Ms. Braxton what industry leaders and firms can do to attract minorities to careers as advisers and in the financial services.
"They can start by offering support and resources to develop minority professionals, which is the key for attracting and retaining a diverse base," she said. "Often, major firms lack formal or informal mentoring programs, which are critical to creating an inclusive professional environment.
"Partnerships with membership-based organizations that offer content and support allow major firms to extend their diversity efforts and signal to their employees and affiliates the firms' breadth and depth of their commitment to diversity and inclusion."
I am certainly glad Ms. Braxton asked me if I had a minute to chat.

QUEER HORROR is a bimonthly festival of genre works by queer artists, performers, and filmmakers questioning horror's relation to queerness and what it means to identify with the monster. Maybe it's the fact that queer people are so often relegated to shadows of otherness that the horror genre is more immediately relatable for us. We grew up with boogeymen. We've lived with boogeymen. Goblins and ghosts are a welcome escape from real-life monstrosities.
From the work of James Whale and John Waters to Patricia Highsmith and Clive Barker, horror has deeply impacted queer culture and sensibilities and QUEER HORROR asks why. QUEER HORROR is programmed and hosted by Portland's premier drag clown Carla Rossi and her human avatar Anthony Hudson, with artwork by resident artist Jason Edward Davis.

VMware — Reston, VA
50,000 sq. ft. / Major Software Developer / Regional Office & Executive Center
Acoustics: Walsh Norris & Associates
Associate Architect: Form Architects
AV Design: Avidex
General Contractor: Bognet Construction
Lighting: Horton Lees Brogden Lighting Design
Photography: Chris Spielmann

Located within the outskirts of Washington DC, this 50,000 sq. ft. project was designed as an extension of the Palo Alto-based software company VMware. Taking historical design cues from the surrounding area, the detailing throughout the space makes extensive use of wood and stone. Design detail highlights also include an inlaid millwork wall with polished marble insets inspired by the parquet floors and paneling of an earlier era. By contrasting the raw, exposed concrete structure of ceiling and walls with finished, polished surfaces, LED lighting, and sophisticated materials, the project successfully integrates both the established cultural tradition of the East Coast with the relaxed attitude of the West Coast without contradiction.

| Dave Herman
A Day in the Life[edit]
Scruffy is the janitor at the Planet Express delivery company. He is one of the most beloved side characters on the program and a man of very few words. He has more stock in Planet Express than any other employee because he "cares about this company." The other crew members of the Planet Express very rarely recognize Scruffy, as most do not even know what he does at the headquarters. He is seen as friendly with Fry, who considers him someone who can keep a secret, though he never told him of the whereabouts of his seven-leaf clover.
A man from the past, Scruffy was once a teacher named Shawn at Northumberland County College and fell into the ice on the way home, freezing him for one thousand years. A frequent fan of pornography, Scruffy prefers to read the magazine Zero-G Juggs. He has worked as a roadie for the Beastie Boys, wheeling their heads in to perform. He enjoys penguin hunting in his rare times away from his responsibilities and exhibits a taste for expensive haircuts.
Scruffy is a lonely soul who can only find comfort in pornography due to human women being unable to grasp his complex emotions. When his washbucket becomes alive, he strays from starting a relationship with it due to knowing that it's an inanimate object deep down inside. Washbusket sobs as it flees from Scruffy, knowing that they can never be together. Scruffy refers to himself in the third person.

Recently, the Obama administration announced updates to model notices notifying workers of their eligibility to continue health-care coverage through COBRA. The updates are to inform workers they are eligible to purchase coverage through the Health Insurance Marketplace or through a private insurance company directly.
Workers and their families who are eligible for employer-sponsored coverage generally must be informed of their right to COBRA continuation coverage at the start of employment. They must also be informed of their right to purchase COBRA coverage when separating from a job. The proposed changes to the model notices would offer information on more affordable options available through the Marketplace, where workers and families may be eligible for financial assistance that would not otherwise be available for COBRA continuation coverage. In most cases, workers and their families eligible for, but not enrolled in, COBRA continuation coverage would be able to enroll in Marketplace coverage outside of the normal open enrollment period.

My upbringing on the Mississippi Gulf Coast instilled a special relationship with the open water and coastal environments, and I have had a close connection with marine environments ever since. The region relies culturally, socially, and economically upon its coast. Thus, I have always had a special interest in coastal regions. My appreciation for coastal environments has continuously strengthened throughout my life and became a deep passion while witnessing the impacts of disasters such as Hurricane Katrina in 2005 and the Deepwater Horizon Spill in 2010. It was through these experiences growing up on the Mississippi Gulf Coast that I realized my passion for coastal research and began studying Coastal Environmental Science at LSU as undergrad before eventually enrolling in a PhD program in Civil and Environmental Engineering at the University of Washington.
Before graduate school, I began to pursue my interests in oceanography research by participating in undergraduate research. As such, I worked closely with Dr. Dubravko Justić for my undergraduate thesis for the LSU Ogden Honors College. We researched the effects of nutrient reduction scenarios on the extent and severity of hypoxia in the northern Gulf of Mexico, which were run with different probable climate scenarios through a computer model developed by Dr. Justić and Lixia Wang at LSU. I was also a 2015 Summer Student Fellow at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Woods Hole, Massachusetts working in the Physical Oceanography Department under the direction of Irina Rypina and Alison Macdonald. There, we used over forty years of drifter observations to better understand and predict the spread of surface contamination using a hypothetical accident centered at the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Plant in Pilgrim, Massachusetts. Working at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution greatly strengthened my research interests in utilizing scientific computing in physical oceanography, which I hope to continue through the use of numerical modeling in graduate school at the University of Washington.

I'm Not a Unicorn - Reclaiming My Voice/
Real talk: I recently went 3 months without a blog post because I felt like I'd lost my voice. My computer crashed in the midst of writing a post, and I treated it as a sign from some benevolent/horrible, technological god that I got a pass on writing…and needed to put a boatload of cash into fixing my laptop.
Do you know there are 2 million blog posts written a day? That. Is. Terrifying. My thinking after the computer crash, was "What the heck do I have to add that's so magical? I'm not a unicorn." Well, it turns out the growing group of women who've been through my workshops, seen me speak, or just found me on the interwebs seem to wanna hear from me, and I'm excited to share.
How I Got My Mojo Back
As someone who has made a career of supporting women in finding their negotiation voice, it seemed a cruel twist of fate that I was struggling with my own voice.
Turns out, it's not just me. Once I started talking more about it, I heard from at least a half dozen women dealing with this very challenge. A friend and badass business owner told me that her colleague recently remarked, "We're so silly and casual at the office, why are we so formal in our blog posts?"
The desire to be seen as a credible expert with important tools to share can make it a challenge to be our playful, dynamic selves. Particularly when our personality has been edited out of our writing in academia, it can be hard to rediscover our writing voice.
The same is true for negotiations. When we're told that women are bad at negotiations or we're going to face negative reactions when we do negotiate, it can make it hard to be authentic in the moment. Some clients tell me they're concentrating so hard on remembering what to say next that they don't listen to their counterpart. Or as other clients tell me, "I just feel like I'm gonna puke."
How do we avoid becoming so scripted that we're not present for the negotiation? How do we deal with the clammy hands and stomach flips? Or in my instance, how do I turn off Policy Writing Robot Mode? Practice.
So This I Promise You, I'll be here, in your inbox, more regularly. Future posts may not always come in the form of "5 Things to Make You XYZ", but they will sound like me and reflect the exciting research I'm reading, the strategies that are working for my clients, and what I'm working through myself.
Thanks for reading and stayin' with me!

Iraqi Kurdistan's cash-strapped government has seized billions of dollars in deposits at two branches of Iraq's central bank since 2014, bankers said, calling into question the region's image as a business-friendly paradise in the Middle East.Though initially envisioned as a temporary measure, the KRG Finance Ministry's practice of tapping funds that banks had deposited in their current accounts at local branches of Iraq's central bank continued as Kurdistan's economy, which boomed after the 2003 U.S.-led invasion of Iraq, deteriorated.Bankers and KRG officials said the regional government first tapped into banks' deposits at local central bank branches in 2014 after then-Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki cut Kurdistan's share of the federal budget – its main source of income – in a dispute over the region's independent oil sales to Turkey.That move led to freezing around two dozen banks' current accounts at central bank branches in Kurdistan, bankers told Reuters. Talabani confirmed banks operating in the region had problems accessing their funds.Bankers said the share of seven Lebanese banks' deposits totaled nearly $100 million.Reuters was not able to contact all the banks operating in Kurdistan.Kurdistan's 2014 budget deficit was almost 8 trillion Iraqi dinars ($7.23 billion) and could reach 3 trillion dinars this year, he said.

There is something about being pregnant in the summer that evokes sympathy from total strangers. This time last year I was pregnant with our 4th baby, Lillian Giselle, due August 15th. Many people would say, "Oh, you must be so hot!" and, "How are you surviving being so huge in this heat?" When pregnant with our first three babes, I had avoided being the hugest while it was the hottest. But this time, I was pregnant during the summer, having an August baby, and I had to figure out a summer maternity style. There comes a point when the heat wins.
That is when I let my BLANQI Belly Support Tanktop go it alone.
Slipped on over my favorite bra and non-maternity skirts or shorts, I felt fresh and sleek. The cooling effect of BLANQI's moisture-wicking finish works wonders. In the early weeks, I would wear the skirt waistband above my small bump. As weeks went by, I would wear the skirt waistband underneath it. I like to look pregnant, so I love that BLANQI defined my bump and gave me a flattering silhouette. Because the tanktop is opaque, there was no need to cover it up or layer over it. It really could go it alone.
I prefer to wear non-maternity styles I already own in my closet, so the support tanktop worked really well. I could keep wearing my pre-pregnancy skinny jeans and favorite ripped denim shorts with the BLANQI Belly Support Tanktop. The bottom band is designed to secure unbuttoned like a bellyband. It just made things easier to not have to worry about what to wear everyday as my belly grew.
Here I am with my husband and kids, less than 2 weeks before Lily arrived. Clearly I had entered the "very pregnant" stage! I still can't believe this was a year ago this week and my belly was that big! I was squeezing myself into maxi dresses since they were just about the only thing that still fit. With lower summer necklines, I needed a support tank that wasn't visible.
That's when I opted for the Underbust Belly Support Tank.
I preferred to wear this style in nude underneath my dresses like a slip. The underbust style stayed hidden under my v-neck and scooped summer necklines. Even my most clingy and stretchy maxi dresses flowed freely. My Underbust Belly Support Tank smoothed everything out, including my popped bellybutton, and stayed in place when chasing after my three little beach babes.
Having a summer baby ended up being easier than expected. I drank a lot of water, put my feet up as often as I could, and wore my BLANQI's day- and night!
xx, Valerie

It is latex backed for stability and to prevent slipping on wooden or tiled floors..
Seagrass is an ideal all-rounder and works especially well in high traffic domestic areas with dogs and children.
It is stain resistant as it has a low absorption ability and therefore pools when spills are made giving one enough time to fetch an absorbent cloth before this becomes a stain. Coffee and wine spills are then easy to clean. Seagrass is hard wearing, durable and affordable. It also has a rich and earthy smell Seagrass rugs are also ideal in an outdoor covered patio area.

Part A: Reflective learning
My understanding of what constitutes "art" is probably a little more nuanced now. Building on Grayson Perry's idea that quality in art is arrived at by a tribe, it might be fair to say that art itself is defined by a tribe. I find this helpful because it gets me away from having to rely so heavily on the creator's intent: there are doubtless people involved in creating art who would never use that label just as there are people who are confident that their productions are art, even if they find no appreciative audience. It might be ideal if both creator and appreciative / judging audience could agree on the definition or value of work. Perhaps the best way to see this is as an ongoing creative conversation between artist and audience(s), recognizing the impacts that changes in time and place will inevitably have on both creating and interpreting.
Over the course of Part One I've been introduced to a number of artists who are new to me and have appreciated starting to exercise interpretive approaches. I've also had the chance to spend time looking at a wider range of art forms and media than I've been used to. Not surprisingly for a beginner, there are large gaps in my awareness—and understanding—of contemporary artists and art forms, particularly in the area of more conceptual art. This is an area where I'd like to deepen my knowledge. I'd also like to develop a richer vocabulary to describe what I'm seeing.
As I look through my learning log I can see that I lean fairly heavily on words and photographs but have incorporated few or no sketches or scans of notes / brochures. Still, I usually have a camera or smartphone with me so it is natural for me to reach for those tools to document what I see. This reflects my areas of interest, but I think I could probably push myself a little harder—I'm not comfortable with my sketching ability, but it could only improve with practice. All told, I think the one area that would give the greatest improvement would simply be to post entries more often. I could probably do this if I relied a little less on text and more on images—not a bad thing to do as I work through a course of studies that is largely about appreciation of visual culture.

Dwelling Hardware Heart
Electric instruments can alleviate the effort of home enhancements for dwelling homeowners. Woolworths has confirmed it is going to shut all of the shops of its failed home-enchancment chain Masters in December, with jobs to go. If your entire expertise purchasing at dwelling enchancment stores is defined by Dwelling Depot and Lowe's, the first thing you will notice when you walk into TreeHouse , a green house enchancment retailer in Austin, is the nice lighting.
To develop even faster, the company is considering hiring challenge managers in different cities, establishing networks of installers, and building a digital dwelling-enchancment platform. Some owners are opting for additions to their present homes or investments in major home-enchancment initiatives. Still, retrofitting a home tends to contain massive tasks, and that favors clients with means.
Lowe's officers said it's still expanding and anticipating to add 15 to twenty shops per yr, adding some retailer-stage 4,000 jobs. In Fairfield County, the corporate also operates shops in Bridgeport, Danbury, Fairfield, Norwalk, Stratford and Trumbull. But despite its growth, not like most different house enchancment shops in San Antonio, Guadalupe Lumber stays a household-owned business.
As part of this effort, Lowe's has made various changes in its management structure in the present day within the buyer support centers, stores, distribution facilities and company office to enhance our efforts on improving the shopper expertise and facilitating sooner determination-making. We're getting hit harder than normal, but it's nothing we will not deal with," said the manager, who like managers at other shops mentioned they were not approved to be quoted by title per firm policy.
The study relies on responses from 2,751 clients who purchased dwelling enchancment-related merchandise from a home enchancment retailer within the earlier 12 months, and was fielded in February-March 2017. Then again, the do-it-yourself products are often designed to be installed without loads of specialised information or instruments, and will make the difference between getting the job completed or not.

I'm out and about, living my life and I see stories that tie into how I practice counseling. Here is an example of such.
I first tried SUP in O'ahu. I took a lesson with my husband, mother-in-law, and brother-in-law and we were in very calm waters inside a canal. I was the only one who didn't fall in. I used to be proud of that, except when I look back, I knew it was because I was the only non-swimmer and was tensed the whole time. I really didn't enjoy the lesson as much as everyone else. They were laughing and splashing around and I was, just scared.
Is it possible that falling into the water is a part of the SUP experience?
SUP + falling
Now a few years later, I've grown less afraid of water and have been out on many more SUP adventures. I've decided that falling in is inevitable: a friend can threaten to tackle me, I can collide into my husband, the currents might be too strong... When I fall in, it is an opportunity for me to work on my chicken, airplane, solider stroke. And while there really isn't a graceful way to fall, it is still preferred to fall directly into the water rather than to hit the board first.
SUP + waves
It's not always calm like the canal. Boats and jet skis pass by, it's breezy, or the water is just choppy. I've learned that if we waited until it's calm, we might never head out.
It's tempting to sit down when the waves come. Sometimes I sit too long before I get back up. And I've tried avoiding the waves, only to have them catch up with me. It seems counter-intuitive, but the most effective way to go through the waves is to face them head on. When I point the nose of my board perpendicular to the waves, while I still feel the motion, I'm actually more stable.
Now I'm not saying there isn't a time and a place to sit and ride out the waves, or even take a break ashore. My husband and I were in Maui and the white caps barely missed us. It wasn't wise to stay out, especially not with a sea-sick husband. But, it's important that that experience did not keep us in the rest of our trip.
SUP + joy
So, what's all the rave about SUP? Why bother? SUP takes us places we couldn't otherwise go. Today, we started out at Madison Park and explored the Arboretum. It was a gorgeous day in Seattle. We got to watch the clouds change patterns, feel the warmth of the sun on our backs, say hello to kayakers and canoers, and explore beneath the 520-bridge. The waters gave a beautiful reflection of the sky and the motion of swaying side-to-side soothed and comforted us.
SUP + life
What parallels am I drawing here? There are times when life is calm. Enjoy those moments. And when it gets rough, know that's also a part of being alive. Falling is inevitable, and getting back up can take a while. After getting back up, it's tempting to stay put so you don't fall again. But when you're sitting down, it's also hard to go very far.
What if feeling the currents of life and feeling off balance at times is a part of living? There's no way around that. And when you try to run away from problems you need to face, they will catch up with you. Like in my previous blog post quoting Robert Frost, it helps to keep going.
That begs the questions, "Where are you heading? What do you want life to be about? Have you let the current of life swept you in another direction? Or, are you distracted by where others are going? Can you pause to orient yourself to where you want to go and keep heading in that direction, even though you can't see very far?"
Focus on what's near you. You can make immediate choices and overcome challenges that will get you closer to where you want to go. Then, remember to zoom out and look ahead. Don't lose sight of where you're heading. You can always change direction based on what you value and the goals you set.
Sure, have your me-time, but know that life is not meant to be journeyed alone. It helps to have someone share with you the joys and the trials. This could be a partner, and it could also be family and friends. In a recent blog post, I talked about why relationships are important.
SUP + psychotherapy
What about my counseling practice? How does this apply? I believe you want your life to matter for something. I want to help you get there, one moment at a time. Try swiping your paddle in the water this way, what happens? If you went back to the gym only 1x/week, what would happen? What if you reached lower with your paddle, how does that affect your speed? If you were to practice this defusion exercise I give you, would you let me know how that worked for you?
Ultimately, you don't HAVE to do anything I ask you to do. After all, I want your life to be about wanting to, rather than having to. However, I'm guessing you want your life to be different, and I would want that for you too. Would you join me in braving the waves, the falling in, while learning ways to face your problems as you live a value-driven life? I'm ready when you are.
Note: while I love being on a SUP, I want to clarify that I don't practice psychotherapy on one.
Ada Pang, MS, LMFT is the proud owner of People Bloom Counseling, a Redmond counseling practice in WA. She has a vision to help people flourish and live vital lives. One thing she loves about SUP is the little waves she creates when she goes perpendicular to the current. It makes her feel like she's chartering a small boat.

By now, you've seen the SNL video where a group wades through the dissonance of a few ultra-conservative (and racist) family members at the Thanksgiving dinner table. Every 3-4 bias statements are followed by a young girl leaving the table to play Adele's, "Hello," which stops the family in their tracks for a lip-sync extravaganza.
Adele: soliciting emotions since, "Chasing Pavements."
'Tis the week of Thanksgiving.
While I personally have a lot to be thankful for, I know this is certainly not the case across the country (and world). Many are headed "home" to see family, and for many, "home," is actually quite scary and overwhelming.
For the past few years, Thanksgiving and winter break(ing) has provoked me to tweet and post to all those who experience some type of dissonance around the(se) holidays. Furthermore, Thanksgiving and winter break have inspired me to care deeper for those who know that going "home" isn't actually all that ruby slippers might ensure.
"Home" is not always, "where the heart is."
I first learned of this reality when I worked at a boarding school several years ago. One of the students who I was really close to approached me one night before heading home for Thanksgiving break, and shared with me some of the struggles he had going on at home. Initially, our conversation was centered around the disconnect between his coming out as gay, and his fears of church and family angst. Later, he shared with me that his family was also severely racist, and he didn't quite know how to find his voice among some of his older and more controlling family members (he was 15). He came back to campus about as broken as he had left.
Educators, one of the best things you can do for your *students is affirm them, and love them. There are some scary realities waiting for many individuals when they get "home" for the holidays, and your conversations before and after those experiences have the potential to be life-changing.
*if not an educator, insert "friends, community, etc." in place of "students"
I was talking with a friend a few weeks ago about all that is happening at Mizzou and Yale (and countless other institutions for higher education), and in that conversation, my friend shared a story of an individual from "home," who posted on his timeline a rant about how frustrated he was with students and, "their protests."
Unsurprising, the individual ended their rant with, #AllLivesMatter. As if, saying something oppressive is instantly not oppressive because you used, "#AllLivesMatter."
Seriously, please stop saying, "#AllLivesMatter."
While there is a lot happening in the world (hearts remain heavy), the #AllLivesMatter person may very well be at your Thanksgiving or Friendsgiving or holiday trip dinner table. And most always, we know who this person is. We predict their every move, their next step. We tip toe around egg shells; or, we barrel-roll right through them.
"Keep the refugees out!"
"Guns for our children!"
"Obama created 'global warming!'"
"I can't believe Rue was Black in the Hunger Games movies!"
The idea that going "home" for the holidays is a joyous occasion is not always the case, and again for many, this time can be a seriously scary and toxic and terrifying experience. The best thing you can do for your friends and loved ones is show and tell them that you support them. Affirm them.
Remind them that, if anything, they have you.
Dear friends who are about to challenge a racist or oppressive family member or tradition: thank you for using your voice, and thank you for spotting injustice, even among the ones you love most.
Dear friends who are about to share a big life change with your family and friends: you have the keys to your own "car" – whether people join you on this ride is up to them – do not let their decisions or misunderstandings stop you from driving. Drive on!
Dear friends who are about to come out (in some form) to your family and friends: you are loved, you are valued, and you are exactly who you are supposed to be – know and believe this truth.
Dear friends who are enduring religious dissonance among your family and friends: this is your journey alone – think, feel, believe, challenge, seek – your timing is also yours alone. Take the time.
Dear friends who feel obligated: you do not have to go home for the holidays. And if you do, you certainly do not have to stay. Create boundaries and non-negotiables for yourself – when these are crossed, get out, and don't look back.
And, if all else fails, just play, "Hello," really loud until all is quiet.
Understanding, "home,"

Where exactly is the frontline against extremist violence these days? Syria and Iraq? Mosques? Classrooms? Family dining tables?
In one global forum after another on terrorism, that's a question many world leaders seem to be asking.
In April, for example, the UN Security Council held a discussion that highlighted different views on ways to counter "the narratives and ideologies" of terrorists. In May, at the Group of Seven summit, leaders cited "critical gaps" in efforts against extremist violence.
"There is a justified anxiety that we do not, as of now, despite all the experience and some progress, have a fully effective strategy to counter [extremism]," says former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who is helping launch a commission on countering violent extremism.
Despite military progress against Al Qaeda and Islamic State, the new emphasis is on ways to impede radicalization, especially of young people. In January, UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon launched a "Plan of Action to Prevent Violent Extremism." And the US State Department has started a "Global Engagement Center" to work with private groups "who can help address key factors that drive radicalization."
Preventing people from turning into violent extremists has become as important as destroying terrorist groups. "Unless we address the circumstances in which radicalization and terrorism thrive, we will always be fighting a rearguard action against it," said Theresa May, Britain's Home Secretary, in February.
A leading thinktank on terrorism, the Rand Corp., finds that a country's open and inclusive politics can help keep many young people from being tempted to join a radical group. And, as one Rand study concluded, a young person's family is more influential than peers in dampening any tendency to become a terrorist.
"We should approach efforts to reduce radicalization among youth in much the same way we work to prevent other problems such as underage drinking and gang recruitment," said Rand researcher Kim Cragin.
One good example of a private, grassroots effort to reach young Muslims is a group called Teachers Against Violent Extremism. Founded by Ayub Mohamed, a business teacher in the Kenyan capital of Nairobi, it has trained more than 100 teachers on ways to conduct classroom discussions with high school students aimed at safeguarding them against the recruitment tactics of terrorist groups like al-Shabab. Preventing radicalization, says Mr. Mohamed, is the responsibility of everyone in a community.
That is exactly the conclusion many world leaders are reaching.

The hardest part about making lobster at home is the price. But if you should happen to come across some tails on sale ― and that does happen more often than you might think ― seize them. Because this shellfish can easily be turned into a delicious meal that, yes, even you can make.
The second hardest thing about making lobster is getting the live beast into the pot. No one likes the task of adding these suckers to the boiling water, but you should know that high-pitched noise they're making is not a scream. And, there's a more humane way to do it ― you just need a very sharp knife and a shot of courage.
The easiest part about making lobster is turning it into a tasty meal, and we're about to help with that with these 22 must-try lobster recipes.

No… I did not get married in Ethiopia, but I did somehow manage to get myself invited to an Ethiopian wedding (although, for the record, Ethiopian women are absolutely stunning… so, maybe someday I'd could find a future wife here). The reception was on a sunny Sunday afternoon in a very nice garden in Addis Ababa. It was, to put it mildly, a very good time… perfect weather, amazing food, some very sharped dressed folks, lots of drinking and dancing, and that sense of collective happiness in the air from so many people in one place just having a good time. There were several times during the afternoon that I just sat back, took in the scene and thought a) how lucky I am to be right here right now, and b) how in the world did I actually end up here… which is what I'm sure several of you are also wondering. Well… here's the breakdown on how this sort of thing happens. One Wednesday afternoon, my new friend Sergio, whom I had met out at a party two weeks prior, texts me that he's down at a beer garden nearby and that I should join him if I can. Well… done and done… I manage to find my way to the place and find Sergio with a lady friend of his named Selam. We get to drinking, chatting and generally having an all around good time. At some point we get on the topic of future plans (the weekend, next week, my trip plans, etc.) and both Sergio and Selam note that they have to go a wedding on Sunday, and both of them invite me to be their plus ones… to which, of course, I say yes (can everyone reading this sense a trend in my answers when asked questions on whether I want to do something or try something? Also, please note that we're all drinking and having a good time so I'm not 100% certain if this is a real invite, or just drunk talk). In an hour or two we all head out to meet some other mutual friends of Sergio and Selam at a public park with, what else, a small beer garden inside… and more merriment ensues (for an example of the random assortment of people one meets out here in Addis, sitting around the table at the beer garden were an American tourist – yours truly – a half Italian, half Yemeni Ethiopian guy, an Ethiopian girl, a Spanish guy, an Italian guy, an American girl who was born in Ethiopia and two Australians, a guy and a girl). An hour or two later, we all get hungry, and a couple people in the group know of a going away party for a German girl taking place at a restaurant/cafe/bar nearby, so we head there and meet up. More of the same as before, but just with more people. At some point in the evening I get introduced to the bride and groom of the aforementioned wedding. The guy is Italian (from Venice) and the girl is Ethiopian, and they live in Italy. We talk, we drink, we all end up dancing… and before we know it the remaining group from the going away party (about 8 of us, including myself, Sergio, Selam and the bride and groom) get kicked out because the place is closing. And, despite it being a Wednesday night, there's always places going off all night in Addis, so we got to a bar down the street where some other friends of my new friends are hanging out. More merriment ensues, and bride the also ends up telling me that I should come to her wedding this weekend… to which I say that, of course, I'd love to, and that I'd coordinate with Sergio and Selam and come as either one of their plus ones. At some point around 1:30 AM, I bow out because I have to go to work early the next morning (yes, work… more on that in another post) and head home. As an aside… lest everyone thinks that all of my traveling is wonderful like this story, I actually had one of my few bad moments in Addis happen that same night at the last bar. One guy, tangentially related to the friends of the friends of the bride, was mean mugging me across the bar all night. When we were eventually introduced he gave that overly hard handshake squeeze deal and an extra hard shoulder chuck, to which I just smiled quizzically wondering what the fuck was wrong with this guy. More mean mugging ensued that I either just ignored or responded with a big ole goofy grin back. At one point I find myself talking with two very cute girls at the bar… they're sitting/standing along the bar and I'm facing them with my back to the crowd. While chatting them up I get a tap on the shoulder… I start to turn around and BAM… I get sucker punched right in the jaw. I'm sure you all know who it was that did it. So I go down… I was turning and got sucker punched, so I'm not ashamed to say that I did, in fact, get knocked on my ass. Once down I actually start laughing out loud because I realize what just happened… one of those things where it happened so fast you don't really know what happened until after it happens. No one is jumping on me or anything, so I continue laughing (luckily, he was either a pussy, or held back a bit, because it didn't hurt all that much) and get up wondering if I'm seriously going to get in fight with this idiot in a a random bar in Ethiopia. Once I'm up, the guy is gone as the bouncers had already "escorted" him downstairs and promptly kicked the crap out of him (I found out later on that this guy's done this before… so the bouncers had their eye on him, and Sergio followed them outside to see what was happening with the guy). So I'm up, and immediately score huge points (by laughing off a punch to the jaw) with pretty much every single pair of double XX chromosomes within 20 feet of me… which, I guess, is the only upside of being sucker punched in the face. So I ended up staying about another 30 minutes before I realized how late it was and went home… aside over, back to the fun stuff.
Thursday I have a long day at work (why, oh why, would that be I wonder?) and just chill afterwards. Friday, I meet up with Sergio for drinks after dinner and I end up running into the bridge and groom again… we have some more fun, and the bride casually notes that if I'm not at their wedding on Sunday, she will personally hunt me down and kill me. I bow out early on Friday night as I have to get up at 4:30 AM (for work… which involved a hot air balloon ride… yes, really). Saturday I meet up with Sergio and Selam (as well as some other folks) and we party hop until the wee hours of the morning… very little mention of the wedding the next day. So I get up the following Sunday half-assuming that I'm likely not going to be headed to any wedding anytime soon… and I just do my usual Sunday morning routine of cleaning up, making breakfast and heading down to the corner cafe for some coffee. While there I get a call from Sergio who asks if I'm ready to head to the wedding… well, not exactly I reply. That's alright he says, he just got up, so he tells me to get ready and meet me at (insert forgotten name of restaurant here) in 30 minutes. Alrighty, so I finish my coffee, walk back up to my house, change, then grab a cab and manage to meet Sergio and his friend Hisham (who I had also met on Friday night) at the restaurant about 15 minutes before the two girls show up (Selam and her roommate Rosanna). We pay our check and the whole group walks over to where the wedding is… only one and half hours late (I'm pretty sure an hour and a half just comes under the allotted time to be fashionably late before crossing the line into obnoxious assholes). So we missed the ceremony, but showed up just in time for the food (thank you impeccable timing). And just like that, reception turns into after party at the groom's uncle's house, which turns into a night out at a live music venue, which turns into heading to a nightclub, which ends with me going home at 6 AM… (yes, places in Addis are open until 6 AM on a Sunday night/Monday morning). I'm still kind of at a loss as how to describe the whole thing exactly, mostly because I'm still in shock that it happened .. I mean who goes to visit a country and ends up not only at a wedding, but partying with the bride and groom and assorted family and friends until 6 AM the following morning? The only word that really comes to mind for me is wow… it was truly an amazing experience.
Let's see… I can see my mom asking this question right off the bat… how on earth did you communicate with all these people? So that was another interesting story… I went with four other people to the wedding, two guys and two girls. Everyone spoke fluent English (myself included), the two guys and one girl spoke fluent Italian (as well as Amharic, the main language of Ethiopia, and whatever dialects of Arabic are spoken in Somalia and Yemen), the other girl spoke Spanish as her native language, and at this point I have the ability to have "communicative" conversations in both Italian and Spanish. The main friends of both the bride and groom speak Italian as their first language (they're mostly half-Italian, half-Ethiopians that spent their formative years in Italy) with some English that ranged from patchy to fluent… so take all that, mix in about a boatload of alcohol, and everyone can communicate just fine in some form of Italian English Spanish gesticulating hybrid gibberish.
So that's how I managed to get invited to an Ethiopian wedding… although it was more like and Ethiopian wedding reception since I missed the entire ceremony.

Last week I got up in the pre-dawn hours, got in a cab and travelled to BlogHer in NYC.
This week I got up in the pre-dawn hours, got in my car and drove 4 hours to another city for my appointment with the doctor who would, according to the last naturopath I saw, fix my hormone issues with bio-identicals. So that I can get pregnant and have my own teeny bambino for other bloggers to NOM on at a future BlogHer conference.
(Note to self: don't try to be a hero, just stop and pee when you need to go, even if it doesn't coincide with your route plan. Because when you finally arrive at your predetermined pit stop, they may be changing the light fixtures in the bathroom, leaving you flapping your hands and whimpering and generally confirming that out-of-towners are batshit crazy.)
The gyno asked some standard questions, did a Pap smear, and checked to make sure that my uterus is where it should be. Then he told me that he didn't think the bio-identicals would do anything for me beyond easing the symptoms of menopause; that's all he prescribes them for. If I really want to get pregnant, he strongly recommends fertility drugs.
In case I haven't mentioned it, fertility drugs are not an option I'm interested in. I am trying to feel normal, not more insane. I think I've done enough synthetic hormonal damage to myself over the years; my body isn't currently manufacturing it's own hormones, so there's no guarantee I'd STAY pregnant. And if I did, I don't think I'm up to the challenge of potential twins, triplets, quadruplets - or their associated reality tv shows.
So I told him I'd think about it, and I got back in the trusty Honda and drove home, with my throat aching with unshed tears of frustration and only the GPS for company.
Go right. Go right. I said go right. Turn around if possible. Turn around, you barren witch.
I think she cut me some slack out of sympathy.
I liked last week's trip a whole lot better.

2002 on Free Comic Book Day
This is a comic I drew over winter but the project its for appears to be on hitus. It's free comic book day today so I thought I'd share my submission online for free. I don't think blogger is very good for reading comics on so I have also uploaded the pages to a webcomic host site for easier browsing.
If you would like to know more about free comic book day visit your local comic book shop - some book shops might be taking part too!

Mixtape Anthology
Mixtape is a new anthology created by Inspired comics collective. I had a lot of fun collecting comics made by friends and then organising the order. The members were not set a theme so the process really did feel like choosing the order of a playlist or mixtape to give to someone. The cover illustration is by Sarah Fogg followed by sample pages from comics I drew for the book.
Inspired Comics will be taking the book to sell at Bristol Comic Expo, London MCM Expo and Manchester MCM Expo
The comic is also available to buy online through my Etsy shop

How to Write an Autobiography
Inspired by the untimely death of her mother, Bryher Scudamore, managing director of Autodotbiography has revealed how you can write your own life story. "Give your past a future, it's the best possible legacy." Says Bryher.
Where to start:
It's recommended that you leave yourself a little note where you'll see it every day to encourage you to keep writing.
3 top tips on getting started:
- Focus. Set aside an hour each day for note making and writing. Make it a time when you will not permit yourself to be distracted into doing anything else. Your goal each day is not 'to finish writing the current section' but 'to do an hour'.
- Gather your memories. First, get a notebook. This is going to be dedicated to noting down memories about your life and questions as they come to you. Second, gather up all the photograph albums you can find and all those envelopes with photographs that you never had time to put into an album.
- Organise. Keep a large envelope or a box alongside your notebook or computer. Use this to store the pictures and documents you want to use in your book.
The importance of photographs
"Photographs are a powerful way of bringing back long forgotten memories." Says Bryher. "They can fascinate the younger members of the family when they see the strange clothes we wore in our younger days." Be sure to go through all of the pictures you own and keep them organised. This isn't something you need to do in one day, leave a pile on the coffee table and flick through some every now and then with a brew.
It's important to go into as much detail as possible. Describing what your favourite meal was as a child may not seem important to you, but it will be to others because it's the little details that people don't know about that will make your book extra special. "It is the little insights that are the most revealing to future generations." Says Bryher.
What to write
You may have things that have happened in your life that you just don't want others to know. It's okay if you don't want to include everything, it's your life as told by you. So ultimately, it's up to you what you want to include. "No one is going to force a truth serum down your throat. The reality is that your family will be delighted to have whatever you feel like sharing." Says Bryher.
"Questions, are at the core of stimulating you to pull out relevant stuff from the hidden depths of your memory." Says Bryher. "Keep a section of your notebook just for writing down questions as they occur to you. Train yourself to think them up and jot them down."
Questions to think about:
- Who were your parents? What were they like?
- What was your place and date of birth? Were there any special circumstances?
- Where did you grow up? What it was like when you were a child?
- What were your siblings like?
- What about your childhood home? Was it big or small?
Remember that the more detail you provide, the better. Especially if you don't have some pictures, good descriptions will help readers create their own images.
Finishing touches
It's important that you find a system that works for you, if you're using a word processor Bryher recommends creating each chapter in a separate document to make it easier to organise.
Once complete, there are many platforms for you to publish your book, you can record yourself talking through it or have it as an electronic book. If you want it to last a long time it's advised that it's printed as a physical copy.
If you feel inspired to write your autobiography, Bryher's online system Autodotbiography guides users through the different 'chapters' of their life and builds the entire book for you.
How it works:
- Autodotbiography.com makes it simple for you to create your book. The system asks users to answer a series of questions about their life
- Users can add photos and other documents
- Autodotbiography will do the rest to create your beautifully, professionally written book
To create the book of your life using autodotbiography, it would normally cost £250 for a year's access to the system and one hardback book with no restriction on length, but for a limited time only, Yours Magazine readers can write their story for a special price of £200 – Quote: Yoursforever

Bitcoin mining is one of the most economically satisfying activities when it comes to the crypto space. It involves two parts depending on your mining strategy. Mining can be done through cloud mining or through setting up a mining rig. If you prefer to get the mining rig route then you get to choose your hardware and your bitcoin mining software.
The hardware is the tangible tools that include the cables, graphics cards, ASICs, motherboards etc. if you have that then you move on to the next step which is choosing the best bitcoin mining software that will not only be compatible with your hardware but also, in your opinion, the best software to make your mining more rewarding.
What is Bitcoin mining software?
There are a further two more choices to make if you prefer to go the 'own-setup' route. You can either join a mining pool and contribute hashing power or mine directly and independently. Either way, you will need more of the same components for bitcoin mining.
Once you have set up your mining rig you will need to communicate with the blockchain directly if you are mining independently or communicate with the mining pool that you are contributing hashing power to. The piece of software that enables you to do this called the bitcoin mining software.
Bitcoin, being the original cryptocurrency, was first mined in 2009 by Satoshi Nakamoto. Back then it was possible to mine using a CPU or normal laptop at home without many expenses. However, with time, as more nodes started joining the bitcoin network, the difficulty increased and soon developers found out that graphics cards could mine bitcoin faster than a CPU could and this ushered the proliferation of graphics cards.
As the cryptocurrency became more valuable more competition was imminent and more money was pumped into the mining scene and soon the ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits) was introduced. ASCIs are very expensive but more powerful than graphics cards.
Therefore, since small-scale and retail miners could not compete with individuals who could afford to run mining rigs using ASICs, less and less mining is done through GPUs. Basically, by now, it is economically unfeasible to mine bitcoin using GPUs. This scenario has led to more centralization.
Software that could be used to mine bitcoin using GPUs has become obsolete as well. This article presents five of the best bitcoin mining software that can be used with ASICs.
How does bitcoin mining software work?
Bitcoin mining software has several functions. The main as mentioned previously is communicating with the bitcoin network. It serves to relay the input of your mining rig to the network while also receiving metadata about the network from other nodes. Not only that, but it also monitors the rest of the network for consensus. If you are part of a pool, the software will relay the same information to the rest of the participants within the pool.
The software also works by collecting vital information from the mining rig such as mining input and output, fan speed, the speed of your miner, temperature and the hash rate. Some software goes an extra mile and controls some of these parameters such as fan speed to regulate the temperature of the rig.
All these factors should be taken into consideration when choosing a bitcoin mining software. However, the final decision depends on an individual's preference. The following list of bitcoin mining software presents the best software for this function.
The Best Bitcoin Mining Software for Windows / MAC / Linux
The list below is by no means conclusive and neither is it presented in an orderly way. It is a selection of the best bitcoin mining software according to Crypto-economy.net.
CGMiner is, no doubt, the most popular piece of software to mine bitcoins. It supports all GPUs as well as FPGA and ASIC miners. CGMiner has a very active community of supporters and a plethora of features. It includes support for mining pools and solo mining. The software is open-source and available for download through the GitHub repository.
The most important features that are bundled with CGMiner include config files, logging, monitoring as well as overclocking capabilities and API monitoring. It also supports remote interface capabilities, multi-GPU support, self-detection of new blocks, fan speed control, CPU mining support among several other features. The CGMiner was created and improved upon the CPU-Miner.
Operating System Support
CGMiner is available across all major operating systems. This includes Windows, Mac OSX and Linux operating systems. CGMiner is coded in C programming language for Linux and Windows with very low non-mining CPU and ram usage.
One of the other more popular bitcoin mining software is the BFGMiner. Full of customizable features and supports a wide array of miners including FPGA and ASIC machines. BFGMiner was a fork of CGMiner with added customizations and features that make it more appealing to a wider audience.
Some of the cool features that make BFGMiner very popular include integrated overclocking, automatic pool failure detection, support of multi-devices, fan control including automatic adjustment when configured, monitoring, remote interface capabilities and the option to work with a GUI as opposed to the default command line prompt. Several other features can be found in its official forum thread.
Operating system support
Similar to the CGMiner software, BFGMiner is also coded in C language. It supports several types of operating systems including Windows, Linux, and OSX.
EasyMiner is more of a GUI interface rather than a stand-alone bitcoin mining software. It works with other software and provides users the capability to use their favorite software through a more user-friendly interface.
EasyMiner is a great starting software for miners who care about the interface as much as the functionality. It presents a nice, clean, uncluttered and modern interface. Any user whether advanced or new to the mining world will immediately identify with the simplicity the interface provides.
Some of its more utilitarian features include easy integration with the CGMiner, ccminer and minerd software. Using EasyMiner allows you to configure your miners to view performance metrics and other bitcoin mining activities through a graphical interface.
The software supports the mining of coins that are encrypted through the SHA-256 and Scrypt algorithms that includes Bitcoin and Litecoin among others.
Operating Systems Support
EasyMiner supports mining on Windows, Android and Linux operating systems.
Bitcoin Miner
Bitcoin Miner is an open source software developed for the ZTEX FPGA Boards. It only comes in a USB interface and can be used for programming and communication between the miners and the blockchain.
Using the software, a user can create low-cost FPGA clusters with standard components, for instance, USB hubs and allow running large-scale mining operations through a single or minimal software instance.
Other features that Bitcoin Miner presents include a ready-to-use Bitstream, which doesn't require any Xilinx Software or a license and the ability to choose the frequency that has the highest rate of valid hashes.
Operating System Support
Bitcoin Miner only runs on Linux and Windows.
RPC Miner
As mentioned in the introductory section, bitcoin mining is more of a subjective activity with all sorts of biases and preferences.
In this regard, some individuals are die-hard fans of the Mac OS platform and for these individuals, the preferred bitcoin mining software has to be compatible with OSX. The RPC Miner (also referred to as the puddinpop's miner) works exclusively on the Mac OS as opposed to CGMiner or BFGMiner that support a range of operating systems. This software supports Mac OS version 10.6 onwards.
RPC Miner has a ton of features including performance metrics reporting, pool mining support and logging.
Operating Systems Support
The RPC Miner is exclusive to the Mac OS platform.
Conclusions about the best Bitcoin Mining Software
Bitcoin mining provides several different options starting with the option to cloud mine or install hardware and manage the rig independently. These options are both viable and you can argue for either case. Similarly, if you chose to go the hardware installation route you can mine independently or join a mining pool.
Not much difference in terms of returns because when mining independently, the rewards will be far in between but they will be huge returns. On the other hand, when mining in a pool, the rewards are more consistent but little. In the end, they add up to almost equal returns.
Therefore the option comes down to preference and so does the choice for the best bitcoin mining software. Most of these software has similar features and it's hard to choose between any of them. The best recommendation is to take all for a spin and see which one fits your mining strategy then stick with it.

After all the talks about being environmental and going green, I think the world should consider this new invention that would probably change the future of motorcycles.
I have found this new green invention called Enertia Electric Motorcycle. This motorcycle is so green that it do not consume same pure gasoline as the usual motorcycles that we have. Aside from that, the Enertia Electric Motorcycle comes into a cool sleek and simple design. This motorcycle is a combination of speed and energy efficiency.
The Enertia Electric Motorcycle uses a rechargeable battery and is a first of it's class. The person behind this creative invention is Craig Bramscher, the one who was also awarded as one of the creative persons in ethonomics.

12 Hammersmith Grove
Client: U+I plc
Location: London, UK
Status: Completed 2016
FL Role: Lead Consultant and Interior Architect
Area: 20,783 sqm GEA
Cost: £41.03m
Structural Engineer: Pell Frischman
Services Engineer: AECOM
Contractor: Wates Construction
Highways: AECOM
Town Planning: Savills
Fund: Aberdeen Asset Management
BREEAM Rating: Excellent
12 Hammersmith Grove is the second of two prime office buildings designed by Flanagan Lawrence and constructed on a former NCP car park site in the centre of Hammersmith. The eleven storey building comprises 15,500 sq m of Grade A office space, 170 sq m of retail space and extensive areas of high quality public realm.
Employing a complimentary palette of materials to the neighbouring first phase building, 10 Hammersmith Grove, the cool glass exterior literally reflects the variety of the adjacent buildings, trees and sky. By night, controlled internal and external lighting schemes ensure that the building constantly changes.
The building enjoys similar facilities to 10 HG, being served by 147 secure and covered cycle spaces, together with showers, lockers, and changing rooms. Car parking is limited to 6 spaces. Through clever design of the building's envelope, the project has achieved what many fully glazed structures don't – a BREEAM "excellent" rating.
For the foyer, Kate Maestri, the glass artist, was commissioned to develop three wall pieces, with a depth and variety of colour not possible in paint alone. Working closely with Kate and the client, we opted for vibrant, hot colours graded from deep red to yellow, complemented by the addition of subtle mirror pinstripes. The result is a stunning trio of Rothko-like installations.

Make sure you Google images of Jacks Shack. It's very popular, has good revues, but it really is a shack.ReplyDelete
I guess it's well named! No need to google, just click the link to Jack's Shack above. Yes, it has great reviews. Looks right up my alley!ReplyDelete

If you do plan on going to Jack's Shack don't forget to print out the coupon on his website for free rum. They will give you a free shot of rum per person but you each need a coupon. I also recommend the jerk chicken for lunch. It was wonderful. We are definitely going back.ReplyDeleteReplies

When I went to the website to search for the coupon for the free rum there was another spot where you could tell them what day you will be there and they will record your name. No coupon necessary. I did this and they did email me back that my name and date of arrival was recorded. Very easy. Hope it works okay.Delete

A talented Milngavie Primary School pupil is this year's winner of East Dunbartonshire Council's annual Road Safety Calendar Competition.
Abbie Mitchell, a Primary 6 pupil, designed clever slogans to deter people from parking too near to the school gates which caught the imagination of the judges.
With an amazing 4,127 entries from 34 different schools across the area.
Abbie's poster on the 'Selfish parking in School Zones' theme included the snappy lines "You will get in trouble if you park on a double" and Tongues will wag if you park on a zigzag" and was accompanied by images of brightly colours cars parked in dangerous locations.
It will now feature on thousands of calendars that will be distributed across East Dunbartonshire to remind people of the very important road safety message.
To commend her winning entry, Abbie and a number of other pupils whose drawings were chosen as the best in their age range were presented with their prizes at a special event Kilmardinny Arts Centre, Bearsden recently.
Depute leader of the Council and Convener of Neighbourhood Services, Ashay Ghai, said: "Every year I am amazed at the popularity of this competition, as well as the standard which goes up and up.
"Judging was extremely difficult, however, there can be only one winner and Abbie's illustration won the day.
"I'd like to congratulate her and all the others winners this year; they did a brilliant job."
Abbie received £70 and a trophy that will go on display at her school.
Prize winners in each category received cash prizes, a certificate and a pencil set.

Before I start blogging about Italy, I must tell you about my delicious experience at the Gramercy Tavern. It was my birthday and I always go to an exceptional restaurant so this time I chose the Gramercy Tavern and a wonderful experience it was. Upon entering the restaurant spring flowers were everywhere, despite the cold weather outside. Daffodils, forsythia and other spring flowers were beautifully arranged throughout the restaurant. I thought to myself: This could only get better! The staff was very knowledgeable and very professional. Everyone ordered drinks, appetizers and a main course. Everything dish was perfect from the presentation to the taste. No one was disappointed! My sea bass was delicious as you can see from the picture.
Then of course we had to have dessert. I never go to a restaurant and not order dessert. In fact, I have been known to read the dessert menu first so that I can properly pace myself when ordering the appetizer and main course. The dessert menu had quite a few choices so everyone chose something different so we could all have a taste. I would rate the desserts a '12' on a scale of 1 to 10. Then the waiter presented us with a small plate of sweets made by the dessert chef. Exceptional! ! !
Before we left we were given a crumb muffin, which of course I saved for breakfast the next day. Delicious ! Gramercy Tavern – treat yourself to a delicious experience!

I like routine. I like structure in my life. I guess this is because the nature of my work is anything but structure. When I first started in photography, one of my first assisting gigs the First assistant said to me to think of this job like a volunteer fireman and that pretty much sums up the business. Each day is it's own minor crisis for my clients and nothing is ever planned ahead of time. It can wear a person out some days and be wonderfully surprising the next. But I digress, I like routine and structure so I impose it where I can. I have a certain wake up routine that I like to follow.
• Coffee. Strong, locally roasted. Currently addicted to Ristretto Roasters to anyone curious.
• Light exercise of some sort. Dawn sessions at the local skatepark (I'm the old guy who just goes fast) or some stretches and such at the house if I'm trapped with work.
• 20 minutes of rudiments on the drum set. Reverse paradiddles are all the rage right now you know.
• On good days I get some journal writing done.
And lastly, before I start on the work I like to try to dredge up something inspiring from the interwebbies. Usually I hit the links over on the right to start and then branch out from there till the hunt is over. This is the hardest part of my routine but also the most consistent. I need to find some beauty out there before I can start the day.
All this is done by 8:30 usually so I am around for the clients. Then I am ready to go.
So that is that. Now go get yourself a routine going.
