Stigma and silence have power. But acceptance and sharing are even more powerful.
Are you one of many millennials suffering in silence? Even a decade ago, when many millennials would have been in high school or about to start their undergraduate careers, data showed that they suffered the same level of anxiety as the average psychiatric patient in the early 1950's!
Today, and due to a lack of targeted mental wellness resources, many millennials do not know where to turn for help. Stigma causes many others to believe that their struggles are not that serious. Please believe that stigma is one of the main reasons that silences people and prevents them from seeking help. Stigma can kill!
At Counseling Space, P.C., we are here to remind you that you are not alone. Those feelings you are struggling with are not a passing thing. They are not "wrong." They are worth talking about.
While some are lucky to have family and friends who are willing to support, their help can only go but so far. One-on-one sessions with a trained mental wellness professional, or attending a group session facilitated by such a professional, ensure that recovery is one step closer! A trained mental wellness professional is:
- Unbiased
- Able to notice patterns
- Equipped to teach emotional management and coping skills (see T-Kea's video testimonial)
- Fitted to relieve your burden of responsibility by offering you a safe space to be as honest, authentic and vulnerable as necessary
Being honest about where you stand emotionally and mentally does not make you weak. Your honesty will empower you for your overdue breakthrough! There is no shame in asking for help from a professional or from like-minded peers in a facilitated group setting. Please speak up if you are struggling!
If you or a millennial woman you know is in need of support NOW, we encourage you to sign up for our MILLENNIAL MINDS! Support Group for Millennial Women. Our group is designed to enhance self-awareness, improve mental well-being, explore problem-solving techniques and MORE!
If you are looking for more information about the support group, visit our EVENTBRITE page. If you are seeking more information on millennial mental health, visit our blog to follow our Millennial Monday Blog Series. Lastly, please feel free to share the information in this post with those you believe it would benefit.
We look forward to welcoming you and your loved ones to our support group! As T-Kea mentioned in the video, let's THRIVE together!
Have a great week!

"Cook the sauce another minute, then add just a touch of olive oil," urges Daniel Boulud in his kitchen at Cafe Boulud in New York City. "Not too much. That's it," he exclaims. His voice carries his passion as he swirls the copper pan holding the finished dish. Over the tops of his glasses he assesses the color and takes in the aroma of the sauce. Then he brings a few drops of it to his lips. After thirty years of cooking in France and America, the chef knows what he wants. "I'm looking for balance," he explains. "A hint of herb, a little acidity -- sweet seafood needs a bit of sharpness -- and all the brininess and flavor of the scallops." It is a simple but perfect recipe and it has been given all his attention, commitment, and talent -- as have each of the recipes in this simple but perfect cookbook.
"Daniel Boulud's Cafe Boulud Cookbook" contains all his creative cooking skills made accessible. By means of Dorie Greenspan's expertly written recipes, Daniel accompanies you into your home kitchen, where his inspiration becomes yours and his instructions are easy to follow. With little effort, you find yourself reproducing his magic on your own stove.
One ingredient for a perfect dish is family tradition. In the book's first section, La Tradition, we are transported to the original Cafe Boulud run by Daniel's grandparents on the outskirts of Lyon -- France's culinary capital. Daniel's education as a cook began with his grandmother and the Poulet Grand-mere she lovingly prepared for her guests. It continued with great chefs that shaped his unique interpretation of home cooking. Recipes such as Skate with Brown Butter and Capers, Hanger Steak with Shallots, and splendid Pommes Frites reveal the influences of his French roots.
But tradition also includes respect for seasonal ingredients. In the next section, La Saison, Daniel accompanies us through the market. We select peas and sugar snaps that are ready to tumble into the pot for the Chilled Spring Pea Soup. Fresh corn becomes the surprise ingredient in Lobster with Sweet Corn Polenta. Complete the celebration of the seasons with Ruby Grapefruit with Pomegranate Sabayon or a milk chocolate-cherry tart like no other.
In the third section, Le Voyage, "Daniel Boulud's Cafe Boulud Cookbook" takes us on an exploration of many of the world's cuisines with dishes as varied as Italian-style Veal Gremolata, Spanish Gazpacho with Anchovy Toast, or a fast and easy Asian salad of crab, cucumber, and mango. Imagine yourself under the warm Middle Eastern sun as you taste Daniel's Coffee-Cardamom Pots de Creme.
In the last section, Le Potager, Daniel offers an extraordinary selection of vegetarian dishes, from easy starters like Heirloom Tomato and Goat Cheese Salad to main courses such as Lemon-Lime Risotto with Asparagus or bone-warming Root Vegetable Cassoulet, and, of course, sublime desserts to cap any meal.
"Daniel Boulud's Cafe Boulud Cookbook" opens wide the door of his kitchen and invites you in with 150 recipes that will unfailingly stimulate your passion for flavor while offering a healthy, easy, and modern approach to good eating. He also provides a collection of basic recipes that are used at Cafe Boulud; a glossary of terms, techniques, and ingredients; and a short batterie de cuisine, a guide to pots, pans, and a few gadgets. He even provides a list of trusted suppliers so you can find the same ingredients he uses at Cafe Boulud. Thirty-two pages of color photographs of finished dishes prepared personally by Daniel will allow you to see, and almost smell and taste, what you are cooking. Watch as this book becomes the extension of your own hands. Whether making a salad for one or a dinner for eight, let "Daniel Boulud's Cafe Boulud Cookbook" be your reliable guide to great food.
Jean-Georges Vongerichten chef-owner Jean-Georges, Jo Jo, Vong, and The Mercer Kitchen, New York City, and Prime, Las Vegas I salute Daniel's talent for creating classic French dishes in his signature style. This book brings this gift of his to life, enabling the reader to create these delicious meals in their home kitchen. Thomas Keller chef-owner, The French Laundry, Napa Valley, California Daniel Boulud has influenced chefs for years with his innovative methods and flavor combinations. Now his inspiring cookbook proves that great French cuisine doesn't have to be complicated cuisine. Colman Andrews editor, Saveur It is a measure of how genuine and refreshingly unpretentious the Caf�'s cooking is that Daniel Boulud and Dorie Greenspan have been able to present it so accessibly and temptingly, in book form, to those of us who can't enjoy it in situ every night. Charlie Trotter chef-owner, Charlie Trotter's, Chicago Well, of course Daniel Boulud is a food genius. Everybody knows that! What he's done with the Caf� Boulud Cookbook, though, is utterly tremendous. Home cooks will be bowled over by his passion for the simple and straightforward. These are the kinds of recipes that truly make cooking fun! Patricia Wells author of Bistro Cooking and Patricia Wells At Home In Provence Daniel Boulud is a rare breed of chef, one who seamlessly merges the best of French cuisine with the modern flavors of America. In this new book, he is at his best: It's cafe fare with imagination, focus, purpose, and massive depth of flavor.

There's no denying that between Libertarians exists barriers. Some Libertarians are more Anarchists or Anarcho-Capitalists; while others consider themselves to be Classical Liberal or Constitutionalists. My heart is with those who are idealists, while my hands work for those who are realist [subjectively speaking of course] who are not apathetic to politics and the processes thereof. I'm addressing those who have been involved with the Liberty movement when I say: we all have freedom of choice here, the choice to opt out of voting, to be apolitical, to vote Libertarian Party, to infiltrate Republican Party, to switch back to the Libertarian Party, etc. I preface by saying, we are Libertarian because we hold a common credo: The Non-Aggression Principle.
"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing." These words were spoken by Edmund Burke, a supporter of the American Revolution. Samuel Adams and The Sons of Liberty did not choose to opt out of the system. They organized, from the taverns to the farms, from the piers to the courthouse, and they fought the system! The founders of this country were not apathetic to the blatant tyranny, they required no approbation from the British crown; they used violent force which is only justified in the defense of life, liberty and property. They were the first society that believed in self-governance. So why should we give up today? Especially as government continuously grows in power and exercises force wherever possible. (more…)

In a truly free society there are a few principles we should live by. These truths have become very evident in the recent years on interventionism by the U.S. government in policies, laws and the policing of the world. I guess it doesn't surprise me that they are not clear to the masses due to the extreme conditioning we citizens have gone through since our childhood.
If these simple principles were at the forefront of our political beliefs we would see prosperous longevity in our economy and in our happiness as a whole. And as opposed to many other attempts at sound policy these principles cost the country absolutely nothing. I wish to outline these principles.
As a government we should refrain from forcing issues upon others because with every force there is a counterforce. Nor should we defeat enemies by force of arms for even when violent actions are well intentioned at first these actions always rebound on ourselves. This has been evident in recent years with our various entanglements with the Middle East. It does no one good economically nor does it any good for national prosperity.
In dealing with the issue of violence it should be of only the last possible resort for survival. In victory over the enemy we shouldn't rejoice and declare victory as a triumph but instead with our heads held low in despair. While yes we may have found ourselves in a situation with only one option of survival we shouldn't be proud of our victory because then we are also proud of the confrontation. This is a sign of men hungry for power. (more…)

Everyone has a 'Red Pill' story about the single moment that changed it all. Their outlook on life, justice, society, even reality itself had all changed; and their curiosity brought them deeper into the rabbit hole. What enlightenment can have such impact? Politics. Most people turn away from the very word, avoiding it as if it were a hex on the house of their family name. Out of disgust and contempt for politics, most have made the choice of doing nothing. It is within their rights to remain neutral on the subject. But what I am telling you now, is that remaining neutral will benefit injustice more than supporting one side or the other regardless of which side is wrong. Those who conceded that voting does not matter since elections are rigged and the politicians are bought and paid for by the corporations or whomever is the mysterious entity known vaguely as 'the powers that be', are close to being disillusioned.

I had an interesting encounter today, well rather I found myself eavesdropping on an encounter. I was in my local small food-market buying a few necessary groceries for my house. When I entered to frozen meat section an employee passing out samples was in a deep and rather active conversation with a customer. I am known as the guy that enters establishments and gets lost people watching and eavesdropping due to my never-ceasing curiosity. The employee was a middle-aged man and the customer was a thirty-something woman. She was exclaiming enthusiastically how she is from New York and wishes to return. I learned quickly that she worked as a paralegal. He, the employee, was British and he was telling her that he studied law at Cambridge University. When the customer heard these words come out of his mouth she raised her voice with surprise and shock asking why on Earth was he here working in a market passing out samples.
This is the point when I couldn't decipher much more from their conversation as I had already spent enough time pretending to be not listening and walked away. But the thought lingered in my mind. He studied law at Cambridge and now he is here at my little neighborhood market surely not making much in the way of wages. This is not the first time I encountered someone of this sort but it is a topic that has been weighing heavily on my recently. (more…)

I'm back!
It's been three long years since last writing for the Roadtreking RV Lifestyle blog. Some of you long time readers probably wondered what Kris and I have been doing. Well, we sold our Michigan home and moved to our Arizona winter property. We bought a closer "summer" property. All this while dealing with real life like two heart attacks, losing our dog, Abby, and dealing with strange illnesses with our other dog, Tucker.
Probably the craziest thing my wife and I did in the past three years was go full circle owning four different motor homes. As a friend of mine has been known to say, I have a story.
The three year journey revolved around figuring how we wanted to retire. We were already retired, but we hadn't fully thought out the "how" when the retirement day came.
One of the easier decisions was moving into a 55+ gated community. Our winter home in Mesa, Arizona was perfect. No more summer-long yard work. We are surrounded by family who also happen to winter there and we have several like-minded friends. The park is noted for hundreds of activities. You are only bored if you choose to be bored. It's also two days closer to our son and his family. So last September we downsized from our 2,600 sq.ft. home and officially became "trailer trash" according to my nephew as we moved into out 950 sq.ft. park model trailer. We call this our winter base camp.
The 120˚F Phoenix summers are brutal so we did our research and purchased a 400 sq. ft. summer base camp in Show Low, Arizona. At 6,000 ft. elevation, the summer temperatures are 25-35˚F cooler. Just last week we left 99˚F Mesa and arrived in 72˚F Show Low three hours later. This 55+ community is a near clone of our other place with the added benefit of being visited regularly by elk, coyotes and other wildlife.
Those decisions were a part of our saner moments.
We love to travel North America in a motor home That much we knew. We had happily driven over 45,000 miles in our Roadtrek. Yet, over the past three years we completely lost our minds and owned four different motor homes trying to find that perfect fit.
The first insane moment was when we traded in our cherished Roadtrek CS Adventurous for a Class C Coachman Freelander. I wanted a dry shower. Yep, I got that. Problem was I didn't fit on the toilet even though I'm just 6' tall and 185 lbs. Drivability wasn't as good as the Roadtrek so we invested in a steering stabilizer that didn't quit do the job. Other than driving and using the toilet, it was a great unit. There was way more room and even a loft for the grandkids. We drove it less than 10,000 miles.
Driving really became an issue so one day we window shopped a Class A Winnebago Vista 30T XL and in a moment of weakness we impulse-bought it. Right away I knew drivability was a top priority so an additional $3,500 was spent on a steering stabilizer and front/rear sway bars. My gosh, this thing was huge and it did drive better. Just not as easily as a Sprinter Van. We had two TV's, a dedicated kitchen, bedroom and living room. The dry shower was being used for storage and rarely for showering. It didn't travel well. Being wider and bigger, there was less wiggle room driving down the interstate or fitting into campsites. Parking issues eliminated impulse stops. We drove it only 15,000 miles.
We realized that what we really wanted was what we had three years ago! We swallowed our pride and did one last trade and bought a Roadtrek CS Adventurous XL. The shower is no longer an issue. It was perfect in every other respect for how we wanted to travel.
Did I mention that we pulled a Jeep Cherokee behind all three of our motorhomes? Funny thing was, it drove the best behind our Sprinter Roadtrek. I can't explain why. It just does. While we didn't really need the Jeep for the smaller Roadtrek or Coachman, it was a necessity for the Winnebago. This time we are leaving the Jeep at home.
It finally dawned on us that each motorhome type was perfect for a specific type of traveler.
The Class A motorhome made for a prefect base camp. Find a great campground that fits larger units and take the car (toad) to see the sites.
The Class C is a perfect family motorhome. There was lots of room. The thing was, it was just the two of us.
The Class B is perfect for exploring. Its also hands down the easiest to drive. That why deciding to come back was easy.
I may be biased, but it felt that both of our Roadtreks were a higher quality build with better technology than the others we owned. We looked at many other Class B's before deciding to come back to Roadtrek. I wish we had never left. I blame it on silly shower envy (slapping my hand to head, vowing never to do it again).
Maybe some day I'll write a more in-depth article about the pluses and minuses of the various motor home types. I can probably also give you some tips we found as we downsized to a 55+ retirement community. Heck, I have a dozen article titles wandering around in my head. For now though, Kris and I have hit the road in our new Roadtrek and wake up each day asking each other, "Which direction do you want to go?"

How to Copy a Large Landscape into Your Small Space
Don't have a rural property? Your home is a classic 60's ranch in a sea of other 60's ranches? Yes, you can have this landscape in your front yard.
How? What exchanges to make?
The meadow/woodland, above, are the street & neighbors homes, so, block that view, keeping the rest of this incredible landscape design. Behind the stone/cement walls, plant an evergreen hedge. Choose for zone, height, drought tolerance, resistance to insects/disease, and deer.
This landscape, above, is pure jewelry for a 60's ranch house in comparison to their builder installed ubiquitous foundation plantings long ago pruned into green meat balls & meat loafs.
More, depending on the size of your site, this design, above, has plenty of room for a golf cart to zip around.
Most odd, copying this landscape design, above, into a 60's ranch front yard provides the same elements of space, calm, and beauty as in the larger setting, above. Promise. It's one of those odd things you learn after decades of designing gardens. The sky provides different types of magic, and confers 'size' to small spaces.
Garden & Be Well, XO Tara

I admit to being mystified by your hatred for foundation plantings. Bad ones, I get it. Plants butchered and hacked into graceless shapes, I hate them too. But what do you have against plants, per se, against the side of a house? And while I like decomposed granite, and slate patios, I also like a good shrub verging on wild, and a band of natives under an oak at the perimeter.
Can you tell us why, in a little more detail, you are so strong in your preferences? Do you dislike all plant-heavy gardens, and mixed borders, or just those that treat vegetation like wallpaper?

Yep! I remember those meatball shrubs. This has a feel of Vegas or Arizona.
Sure makes an easy life. I am sick of my yard work. Hitting 80 soon and
Yesterday a friend came over to help prune a cherry tree and wisteria.
I can't walk today. Too much leaf blowing and raking and bending, stooping.

The hair accessories can and is usually falls into the something new, something old, something borrowed something blue. It is quite popular as well for those. The designs include vintage and craze designs that allow the bride to express herself creatively.

The colours of the accessories have the exact meaning as the dress; being in the virginal white outfit means pure and innocent. Yet you add a touch of pink your sincerity. Red shows the love, yet it shows the passion of love.

Having the hair pieces give some form of symbolizing of who the bride is, and with the different style expressing who she is gives her more control, with the vintage hats and cage veil gives her the elegance look, where the hair pins can some an ordinary plain Jane. The style with a three style hair band decorated with diamonds shows her riches and wealth. And flower style clips show her nature tendencies.

How to transform your company into a distributed business
In a recent study published by OwlLabs concluded that 65% of on-site employees in the US want to work outside the office at least once a month and the majority of them would love to try this even for once per week. There is no denying that a change in how we work is here. Remote business is embraced by startups who manage fully distributed teams and entrepreneurs who grow their business remotely. But how can an already established company keep up with the trend — how do you turn your company into a distributed business?
The transformation process is a simple 5-step approach, but it is full of risks and possible setbacks with great rewards at the end. It's not much different than launching a new product or an MVP. Except for this time, your company is the one that's getting (re)launched.
The first step is risk-free and lots of fun — and it's essential. Learn how the distributed business model and managing a remote team can help your company to grow. In a nutshell, backed by countless of studies done on remote workers, your team will be more productive, much healthier and you will have the chance to manage a truly diverse, multicultural and inspiring team. The change will influence your company's growth — in real numbers and ROI. On the top of the increased productivity, you will have higher margins, access to the global talent pool and a much flexible business model.
Learning about the benefits of a distributed company is free. My company, Anywhere, helps entrepreneurs like you to make the change and go remote. All of our resources are free, including our long-read book.
Distributed business is not for everyone. If you have a medium-sized team, your company operates in the technology- or creative services space; chances are you are good to go. It is easier to make the switch if all your current processes are running online anyway. For everyone else, evaluate carefully.
Do you have full support internally? Make sure that everyone in your current team would support the change. The simplest way to secure this: ask them. Do internal meetings and surveys if they can and would work remotely if needed.
Do you have full support externally? You are an established business with existing clients — will they able to work with you remotely. You have to make sure that switching to a new model won't lead to churn.
Put the current setup up to the whiteboard. Map out your current operations and look for those which are essential. You won't touch these for now. Find those areas where you can allow a few days or weeks of setbacks. If you have operation areas like this, that's where you will test the new model.
Once you got everyone onboard and mapped out the current setup, you can prepare for the change.
By Peter Benei
The distributed business model is all about location — the lack of location. You need to prepare all your current operations to remove the location out from the equation. There are two minor steps you need to do to achieve this.
One, you have to educate the current team. It is not enough just to let everyone to buy-in to this. You don't want to change your current team. You want the team to go remote — so help them to do so — doing internal training programs and preparation is a must at this stage. There are countless courses for employees helping to stay productive while working remotely.
Two, you have to work in your office as there would be no office. It might lead to silly situations but stick with the plan. If your current project management is not fully online, build the infrastructure first. You would be surprised how many companies have slow or non-existing cloud-based solutions for their resources or how many teams still use offline whiteboards to map out entire project plans but don't turn that plan into an accessible online roadmap. Setting up the new tools and methods would take a while but even if you don't make the switch at the end, just by setting up these new processes will kickstart your growth.
This step is required only to manage risk when you make the final switch. You have to test the model out first. Testing the model is easy: you have to skip the office for a while. The goal of the test: go remote for a short period and learn how to manage the inevitable road bumps. Your productivity might even fall a bit, but that is normal. When everything falls into place, you will be surprised how quickly it recovers and even surpasses your previous standard.
There are a few ways you can do the testing — all depends on your current setup:
You can let some people or your full team go remote for a period. A week is a minimum but a month would be the best. They have to skip the office entirely and only work remotely. Support them on this journey: for some, having an office is critical — let them work from coworking offices.
Hire someone remotely. If you were about to extend your team with new members, why not hire your next employee remotely? Integrate the new employee into your current team. The critical thing to test here is not how the new employee can work with you but how your current team can work with someone remotely.
No matter which option you choose, sit down with your team and gather feedback after the testing. At that point, you will have all the processes established to go remote, and your team also had an impression on how to work remotely.
After the testing, you can make an informed decision if you still want to transform your company.
The final step is to make the decision — at this point, I highly recommend to go all-in. Become a fully distributed business. By going all-in, you can change not just your processes and operations but also your culture. The critical element for any distributed company is their culture — that is how they retain their remote team and grow their business.
Remote business culture is not about your office — it is about diversity, transparency, self-responsibility and the way you work. Build and share this culture with everyone and help other entrepreneurs to learn from your success.
My name is Peter. Welcome, I'm glad you are here. I help companies to amplify their messages, create meaningful conversations, and scale up their business fast. My passion is remote business - I can help you to build, launch and grow your distributed company.

ABC Person of the Week - Paralympian Melissa Stockwell
Two amazing lives converged this week at the United States Olympic Center in Colorado Springs. Under the grandeur of Pikes Peak, amid dozens of waving flags from around the world, Bob Woodruff sat down to interview Melissa Stockwell.
A few days before, Melissa had heard the news that she'd been named to the United States Paralympic Swim Team, and would be going to Beijing later this year. Melissa, who lost her leg to a roadside bomb in Baghdad in 2004, is the first Iraq war veteran invited to compete in the Paralympics.
As they sat across from each other, the parallels between interviewer and interviewee were hard to ignore. Bob Woodruff was nearly killed by a roadside bomb about twelve miles north of Baghdad in 2006 - becoming the first American news anchor to be seriously wounded in a war zone.
Director of Photography Tom Miller and two Big Pictures crews (Tom Miller & Tom Levy, Zumi Hidalgo & Pete Ward), along with ABC Producer Christine Romo, spent the day with Stockwell and Woodruff capturing her inspirational story.
This feature will air tomorrow (Friday, April 18th) on ABC's Good Morning America, and World News Tonight with Charlie Gibson. Please check it out if you get a chance.

"With an integrated team from all corners of the country, we were able to create deep space in our chamber and confirm that Webb can perform flawlessly as it observes the coldest corners of the universe," said Jonathan Homan, project manager for the James Webb Space Telescope's cryogenic testing at Johnson. "I expect [Webb] to be successful, as it journeys to Lagrange point 2 [after launch] and explores the origins of solar systems, galaxies, and has the chance to change our understanding of our universe."
The vault-like, 40-foot diameter, 40-ton door of Chamber A (below) at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston was unsealed on November 18, signaling the end of cryogenic testing for NASA's James Webb Space Telescope. The historic chamber's massive door opening brings to a close about 100 days of testing for Webb, a significant milestone in the telescope's journey to the launch pad.
The cryogenic vacuum test began when the chamber was sealed shut on July 10, 2017. Scientists and engineers at Johnson put Webb's optical telescope and integrated science instrument module (OTIS) through a series of tests designed to ensure the telescope functioned as expected in an extremely cold, airless environment akin to that of space.
These tests included an important alignment check of Webb's 18 primary mirror segments, to make sure all of the gold-plated, hexagonal segments acted like a single, monolithic mirror. This was the first time the telescope's optics and its instruments were tested together, though the instruments had previously undergone cryogenic testing in a smaller chamber at Goddard.
Before cooling the chamber, engineers removed the air from it, which took about a week. On July 20, engineers began to bring the chamber, the telescope, and the telescope's science instruments down to cryogenic temperatures—a process that took about 30 days. During cool down, Webb and its instruments transferred their heat to surrounding liquid nitrogen and cold gaseous helium shrouds in Chamber A. Webb remained at "cryo-stable" temperatures for about another 30 days, and on Sept. 27, the engineers began to warm the chamber back to ambient conditions (near room temperature), before pumping the air back into it and unsealing the door.
While Webb was inside the chamber, insulated from both outside visible and infrared light, engineers monitored it using thermal sensors and specialized camera systems. The thermal sensors kept tabs on the temperature of the telescope, while the camera systems tracked the physical position of Webb to see how its components very minutely moved during the cooldown process. Monitoring the telescope throughout the testing required the coordinated effort of every Webb team member at Johnson.."
In space, the telescope must be kept extremely cold, in order to be able to detect the infrared light from very faint, distant objects. Webb and its instruments have an operating temperature of about 40 Kelvin (or about minus 387 Fahrenheit / minus 233 Celsius). Because the Webb telescope's mid-infrared instrument (MIRI) must be kept colder than the other research instruments, it relies on a cryocooler to lower its temperature to less than 7 Kelvin (minus 447 degrees Fahrenheit / minus 266 degrees Celsius).
To protect the telescope from external sources of light and heat (like the Sun, Earth and Moon), as well as from heat emitted by the observatory, a five-layer, tennis court-sized sunshield acts like a parasol that provides shade. The sunshield separates the observatory into a warm, sun-facing side (reaching temperatures close to 185 degrees Fahrenheit / 85 degrees Celsius) and a cold side (minus 400 degrees Fahrenheit / minus 240 degrees Celsius). The sunshield blocks sunlight from interfering with the sensitive telescope instruments.
Webb's combined science instruments and optics next journey to Northrop Grumman Aerospace Systems in Redondo Beach, California, where they will be integrated with the spacecraft element, which is the combined sunshield and spacecraft bus. Together, the pieces form the complete James Webb Space Telescope observatory.
Once fully integrated, the entire observatory will undergo more tests during what is called "observatory-level testing." This testing is the last exposure to a simulated launch environment before flight and deployment testing on the whole observatory.
Webb is expected to launch from Kourou, French Guiana, in the spring of 2019.

Happy Thanksgiving!
This thanksgiving, I want you to go far by remembering the difference between a Me-attitude and a God-attitude.
A me-attitude, focuses on, well me. This holiday, if we begin feeling resentful, or if we're thinking we are owed something by the world, or that we deserve to have better, we are having a me-attitude and that kind of attitude only gets us so far, only as far as we can go, that really isn't that far in the brief life we have.
Now remember, a good and healthy self-worth and love grounded in the love of God is a good attitude and it's about me, but surprisingly, it's not a me-attitude but a God-attitude that gives you that kind of self-worth.
A God-attitude, focuses on, well God. This holiday, if we are thankful for what we have, feel grateful for receiving and eager to share, and realize that what we deserve from God's hand is only judgement but that what we get instead is love, something we don't deserve; this attitude will take you far. Because this kind of attitude will take us far as God can go, and that is so big it never ends.
Go far this thanksgiving and explore all that it means to be truly thankful with a god-attitude.

The story of the feeding of the five thousand is not merely a demonstration of the power of Jesus to meet the needs of people but provides a picture of the entire Gospel enterprise. There are four elements to the story: hunger, weak and foolish provision, multiplication of the provision in the hands of the disciples, and the left-overs for the world of hungry people.
New Testament Lesson: Romans 10:9-17
Gospel Lesson: John 6:1-13

Boutique Crawl- It's not just for art anymore: Part 1
Though I love being an artist, designing and making jewelry is only half of my job. There's a whole other side to being a successful entrepreneur, including the marketing and sale of my jewelry! Luckily, in Nashville, there are plenty of amazing boutiques whose owners are just as passionate about handmade, original, and local products. I'm fortunate to have worked with many local boutiques who help me connect with shoppers (like you!) and handle sales so that I can focus on my craft. Looking for a shop to find something truly unique in Nashville? I've listed five of my favorite Music City boutiques below.
1. Castilleja is a fun little spot in the Edgehill neighborhood. The owner, Liz, is always finding new treasures to stock her shelves with. Castilleja has a Southwestern-inspired style and carries everything from upscale candles to mini cacti, which I must say complement my jewelry quite well! It's the perfect spot to find a gift for a friend or pick up a one-of-a-kind item for your wardrobe or interior.
2. Stacey Rhodes Boutique is worth the drive down to Brentwood, trust me! Stacey is a graduate of O'More College of Design, where I teach classes -- so she has a degree in style. Visit her shop to see clothing and accessories from well-known designers, as well as cutting-edge items from emerging artists. Fun fact: her shop is apparently one of Carrie Underwood's favorite retail therapy spots.
3. Native and Nomad is located in Hillsboro Village, meaning it's the perfect stop on a day of shopping and exploring the city. This upscale boutique has men's and women's clothing and a large selection of accessories. True to its "native" name, Native and Nomad does not stock any products made outside of the USA. And many of its products, including Lock & Key jewelry of course, are made right here in Nashville.
4. House Of is a cool little boutique that just opened thanks to the efforts of some Belmont students. This shop only sells products made right here in Music City. I love the concept of House Of and am honored to be included in their curated collection of Nashville art and fashion!
5. Abednego is a Germantown gem worth seeing. This little shop carries men's and women's items as well as a bunch of fun gifts and accessories that you won't find anywhere else. Only open for a year, Abednego has already established a reputation for being equally awesome and affordable. I love going in and seeing what treasures the owner, Meredith, has brought in to share with the community.
And that's just the beginning! There are so many wonderful shops and boutiques in Music City that you've got to see. Want to know what other must-shop spots are on my list? Drop me a line and I'd be happy to point you in a stylish direction.

Quinoa & Sun Blushed Tomatoes Burgers
I have to confess I have been fascinated by quinoa lately and try to include it in just about anything these days - savoury or sweet. I love its consistency and versatility as well as its light substance that manages to fill you up for the day. Adding some amazing spices such as anti-inflammatory turmeric to add a yellow 'sunshine' colour and spicy chili powder to boost your immunity is a great start to bring warmth and earthiness into your meal on a cold winter day. A variation of any cold & warm salad to accompany these burgers make it a perfect lunch or dinner.
Serves 4
1/2 cup white quinoa
1/2 lemon zest & juice
1/4 tsp mild chili powder
1 tsp turmeric
1 cup oats
1 tsp poppy seeds
3 eggs
Handful coriander, chopped
Handful of sun-blushed tomatoes, chopped
1/2 feta cheese, crumbled
Bunch of asparagus
12 chestnut mushrooms, sliced
2 clove garlic, crushed
Sweet gem lettuce, chopped
Beetroot, sliced
Olive oil
1. Put quinoa with lemon zest & juice into a pot and boil for about 15 minutes. Then allow to cool down.
2. Mix the boiled quinoa with oats, all the spices, poppy seeds and eggs together. Add coriander, sun-blushed tomatoes and feta cheese into the mixture.
3. Create evenly sized burgers with a spoon. Heat up some olive oil in a pan and fry the burgers for about 3 minutes on both sides until golden brown.
4. For the warm salad, just drizzle some olive oil over the asparagus adding a bit of salt and pepper and grill for about 5 minutes.
5. Add the crushed garlic in with the mushrooms and saute for 3-4 minutes on a bit of olive oil.
6. Serve your burgers with warm veggies, together with chopped lettuce and sliced beetroot or any other vegetables of your choice.

- There are three elements in Generative Grammar
- Sentences
- Competence
- Component
A . Sentences
There are a list of well-formed sentences in language but the list is too long -- infinite
There are two principles in
- Creativity :
(Native speaker should be capable to create NEW sentences)
Language should not only be learnt by imitation, but by the principles of abstraction.
This principle is innate (in-born)
- Recursion / Iteration
Allow construction that involve repetitive occurrence of elements
B. Competence
1. Some sentences are grammatically correct:
e.g. The table saw the woman
The sentence is grammatically correct but doesn't make sense
2. Some are ungrammatical (something missing)
e.g. John put the car (e.g. location is missing)
3. Some are ungrammatical (Wrong word order)
e.g. Put John in the garage the car
C. Components
1. PS- Phase Structure component
Rule is needed
Syntactic tree - rules system phrase structure
2. Lexicon
Deep Structure and Surface Structure
Same "big" structure with different surface structures
Same idea can be explained in different ways
e.g. You pushes the chair -> The chair is pushed by you.

All quiet today on the photography front. I spent some time over the weekend experimenting with fill flash in the sunshine which really opened my eyes. Though I'm afraid I've no images to post. I spent Saturday afternoon shooting my kids at the park, but I made a conscious decision some time ago not to post pictures of them on the Internet for all to see - there are just too many weirdos out there. I also shot a couple of rolls of slide film using my old Olympus OM10 which I've just sent to be cross-processed, though to my dismay as I was approaching the end of the second film, the camera just kept on winding and winding. When I managed to open the camera inside my dark bag this morning it felt like for some reason the film had stopped winding. I couldn't really tell by touch how much of the film had been exposed, so I'll just have to wait and see... I find loading 120 film so much easier than 35mm. To me its always a bit hit and miss with 35mm whether you've actually loaded the film properly (and I've shot plenty of the damn stuff). Even with my Lomo its the same.
I'm just about to renew my subscription to Black & White magazine ( its a great publication, and I really can't emphasise enough how important it is to keep your eyes scanning new images ) In addition to B&W, I also get Silvershotz, Black & White Photography, National Geographic, FPME and JPG mag. There are a few others that I regularly buy, but don't subscribe too such as Source, PhotoIcon & Next Level. But for me B&W is by far the best, closely followed by Silvershotz .
Also on the shopping list this week is Elliott Erwitt's "Unseen". I had heard that William Eggleston's "2 1/4" is due for a reprint soon, so I'm holding out for that too, as I can't really justify $170 for a used copy. I'm really looking forward to adding the Erwitt book to my growing collection (The wife reckons its getting out of hand already!) and I'll post my thoughts on it once I've got my grubby mits on it.
Totally off topic, I happened across this story about up and coming Manchester band, The Get Out Clause. They decided to make use of the plethora of CCTV cameras that grace our beloved city centre as they couldn't afford to make their own music video. They played in front of 80 different CCTVs around the city and then asked for the video via Freedom of Information Act letters. Apparently about 25% of the CCTV owners complied with the law and turned them over. These result is this video:

When I had this experience that I talk about in my podcast today, I didn't know if I was ever going to publish it. It was such a powerful and private experience. However, I felt that I needed to be this vulnerable with all of you in hopes that my experience could bless your life.
I was able to do a deep dive with my spiritual mentor, Paul Wellin, and look at some physical pain I was having in my hips. I knew that my pain was just a signal for something I didn't really want to look at. In my session with Paul, I felt like I needed a guide to go into the 'pit' as I called it and help me uncover some deeply rooted false core beliefs.
This experience has been something that has changed the core being of who I am and I know there is still more to learn. I would encourage you to listen to the podcast because the level of detail is much better in the audio version than anything I could write in a short blog.
What I will say about this episode is that I'm grateful not only for the experience of looking at some of the darkest parts of my soul but the light that always comes after. I came to this earth to be an advocate for Light, Love, and Truth but I also learned that there is beauty in the darkness of my soul as well. It's all about our perceptions and discovering the truth of who we really are.
I pray you will love all the parts of you and discover for yourself the hidden mysteries of unconditional love.
Please listen to 008 Discovering Unconditional Love and share as you feel inspired to do so!
God Bless~

My blog post is about a picture I took while I engaged on a leisurely stroll away from a private beach in Lagos where I went with a few friends, this particular picture I took a few weeks ago has been on my mind since I took it. The picture really speaks to me. It speaks in a language loud but endangered, it speaks HOPE!
Do you see what I see?
Some might look at this picture and see abject poverty, but I see happiness, I see contentment, I see hope, I see the future. I see a young boy growing up to be a versatile manager, I see a another young lad growing up to be the next Jay Jay, and I see a young girl growing up to be a world known super model!
What do you see?

Or at least a dinner date that walks them down the memory lane to the first time they met, or when he came to meet her parents, or when he proposed her, or even when they bought their first small apartment. Which was then quiet, clean, empty, romantic and definitely a house to live in. But now with shirts, socks, and pants that are scattered helter-skelter all over the place, the house doesn't look any better than shipwreck.
In fact, it's fun to be counting your number of years of being together and to look back at how much matured you have grown. How much patience have been yielded. And to discover how true your love to each other is. This is when you realise that marriage has turned you to be more tolerant and understanding but it could also make you the other way around.
To make your wedding anniversary more memorable and meaningful, I would love to share a list of reality check given by Pak Utih in one of his lectures. This is basically about a self-reflection about yourself and the marriage as a team. But y'all gotta be open with whatever comments or compliments from your spouse because after all, s/he sees your true colours every single day.
Alright the first thing that y'all can do is to share your thoughts on :
1. Pengorbananku kepada mu
2. Pengorbananmu kepada ku.
Once you're done praising each other and yourself, you shall move on to:
This to go in detail, about :
1. Tabiatmu yang aku sukai
2. Tabiat lainku yang aku rasa anda suka
3. Tabiatku yang aku rasa anda tak suka
4. Tabiatmu yang aku tak suka
Number four is the hardest of them all either to say or to accept. But this is for your better marriage in the coming year. This is when y'all can be truly honest to one another without being worried or feeling intimidated provided you guys say it nicely, insha Allah it will end up smooth.
Go for a getaway. a lunch, a dinner, a day out, a vacation and set some time to talk about all this. With hopes and prayers that Allah will bestow upon your marriage His blessings in the dunia and the hereafter.
Happy Anniversary!

I'm sure it must be the same in every vocation. You see someone who has the same job as you have and they mess it up and bring shame to the profession. It could be a football coach who sees another coach mismanage the clock in the last few minutes of the game ... on a lawyer seeing another lawyer violate confidentiality ... or an electrician seeing another electrician start a fire because he wired something wrong ... or a doctor seeing another doctor misdiagnose a disease ... or a (you get the idea by now!) So I'm a pastor and you're now wondering what I've seen that is prompting this rant. To understand maybe you should read this article on entrepreneur.com
You notice in that article that Pastor Joel Osteen says the key to success is what follows these two important words, "I am." This is because, in his make-believe world, our speaking certain words has creative power. So if we say positive words after we say "I am" then we're insuring ourselves a positive future.
I love being a pastor ... I love working in the Lord's church ... I cherish the privilege (with fear and trembling) of proclaiming the Gospel to others ... but guys like this make me want to constantly bang my head against the wall until I go unconscious. I've heard some of the "word / faith" teaching before, that our words have this creative power, that we can "speak" into existence certain things, but Osteen now wins the prize! Please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't he saying that if we say and believe we're a god ("I am" is the name God gave Himself as He revealed Himself to Moses in Exodus 3) then we can then create the future we desire with our words - i.e starting a business, advancing careers, living our best lives, etc. Who doesn't want to be god and be in control of everything!?!? According to Bro. Joel we can. In the words of "the church lady" from the late '80's, "Well, isn't that special?" And certainly don't be around people who would ever say negative things about you or your future. After all, who needs to spend time examining one's own sin and need of repentance when we need to be pursuing success?
So who am I, a redneck pastor in a podunk PCA church in Moody, AL to come out against someone who preaches weekly to 43,000 in person and 7 million via television? How many books have I written? Is my net worth over $56,000,000? Do I have a 17,000 sq foot home? Do I own my own jet? Again, who am I?
Actually, that's what Moses was saying to God when He revealed Himself to Moses. Moses was wondering what gave him the right to approach Pharoah, the most powerful man on earth at the time, and demand that he release the Hebrew people from slavery. God answered Moses and essentially said it's not about who you are, but it's all about who I am! God told Moses, tell him "I am" has sent you and let Pharoah deal with the consequences of his response.
How dare we mock the glory, authority, existence, sovereignty, majesty, and holiness of God by flippantly using His name to accomplish our own agenda for success.
Let me encourage you in this way ... as you consider your future, don't put your hope in what positive words you can say after proclaiming yourself to be "god" ... rather put your hope in the true God, the great "I AM," the self-existent and sovereign God of Scripture, the One who has revealed Himself perfectly through the person and work of Jesus Christ. So maybe it is good to start with the words "I am" but then quickly add "not God" to that thought. This has to be our starting point ... God is God and we're not; a strong Creator / creature distinction is necessary.
And by the way, if any of you ever hear me spew this kind of garbage in my preaching or teaching, please don't let me continue. Seriously, I'm perfectly capable of going down some errant path. Pray for me, for our officers, for our church, for our denomination (the PCA), for the church around the world.

I'm so mad right now I could scream but instead I'm crying because I really hope the baby bird I rescued from our pool doesn't die.
What's more I want the parents of the bird to get their stupid screechy arses back to check on their baby.
You see our backyard is the proud host of four new baby birds, they're about two weeks old.
I have no idea how they all fit in that nest but they do, well not so much now that they are out and about exploring.
This past week they have been learning to fly etc, although some are better at it than others. There are four of them.
Survival of the fittest has already come to play and two are thriving and two aren't. It gnaws away at me but I know it's life. Still it sucks.
I've been keeping an eye on the little Hiccup to make sure no harm comes to him or her.
So an hour ago I was plugging away at some work and thought I'd check out how the family is doing, they were all chilling around the pool and then all flew off when I walked outside.
I then noticed Hiccup in the pool, I raced in and rescue the wee thing and there was little fight in the wee creature. I put it under the kid's play hut in the sun but out of the wind.
That was 20 minutes ago and where are the bloody parents?
Surely they haven't deserted Hiccup and buggered off now they can all fly reasonably well?
I tell you I'm not happy right now.
Furthermore, who builds a nest so high up and above a swimming pool? I mean what were they thinking, and they called Michael Jackson an irresponsible dad for dangling his kid.
These parents take the cake, they must have balls of steel. Bird brains.
Why couldn't they have chosen to make a nest in the nice natives in our garden instead of the neighbours horribly tall bamboo plants that lose all their farking leaves in our pool?
I just peeked through the window and no one has come back to see how Hiccup is going.
This really upsets me and I knew this would happen. I would get attached to the stupid birds, one would die and I would be a basket case.
Nature sucks. Survival of the fittest sucks. The parents of Hiccup are wankers and if they don't come back I'll get a bunch of crows together to kick their butts.
This is why I can't be a farmer or anyone that cares for animals, I'm not tough enough.
What should I do?
It'll die if its parents don't come back?
What will I tell the kids? FARK!

Who Will Win 'Big Brother 16'? Former Houseguest Amber Gives Us Her Prediction
Leaving the Big Brother house is no easy feat. Leaving the Big Brother house when you still can watch the show live with America would be downright frustrating. With this past Thursday marking the beginning of sending the houseguests to the Jury House, only five previously evicted players are left screaming at their television screens as their former houseguests lie, betray, and evict. At least that is the case for recent evictee Amber Borzotra, who told me that watching Wednesday's episode left her feeling like she was still playing the Big Brother game.
"I'm kind of nervous to watch them," she says of new Big Brother episodes. I don't know what is going to be said, what's going to be talked about." Now that she is out, and back into the real world, Amber gets to start watching from a different perspective. Because once you're out of the house, all of those whispered conversations that we, as viewers, watch the houseguests so awkwardly walk in on, are exposed for what they really are, and that's usually game play.
So now that she is out of the house, and has a better idea of who is running the game, who does Amber think will walk away with the $500,000? "Derrick has a good chance just because of the game he is playing," she says. After Thursday's episode where Derrick decided the house was going to save Zach from eviction, there was no doubt he is one of the most dangerous players in the game."
But that doesn't mean she's rooting for him. "I really want Donny to win," she gushes when I ask who she wants to see take home the prize. "I love Donny, I have a soft spot for Donny. I had a good relationship with Donny since Day 1," she continues, confirming America's love of Donny as well.
Donny isn't the only houseguest she is rooting for. Cody and Amber's relationship was that of an honest one, no matter how much it angered Caleb to see them together. "I'm rooting for Cody, too, because he was a friend of mine," she says. Sorry, Caleb.
And even though Amber's cheering for those two, she looks forward to when the game is over, so the houseguests can get to know each other outside of the house. "You really don't know someone until they are out of the house," she explains. Although for her, what we saw was the real Amber. "That's who I am outside of the house, that's what I promised myself going inside the house, that I was just going to be me 100 percent." And although being the real Amber didn't win her the prize, Amber has left with her head held high, and a summer full of great memories — that all of America got to see.

Late last year the online world went wild with talk of a potential Marvel all-female team-up project going into development.
Now, some of the original actresses whose comments started and fueled the rumors now pulling back on the talk. During "Avengers: Infinity War" promotions last week, actresses Tessa Thompson, Elizabeth Olsen and Karen Gillan downplayed the talk, telling multiple outlets it was an offhand comment the media just went with and there's no real serious movement on it.
One female-centered MCU project that is certain to be announced in the near future though is the long overdue "Black Widow" film with the likes of filmmakers Deniz Gamze Erguven ("Mustang"), Chloe Zhao ("The Rider"), and Amma Asante ("A United Kingdom") having reportedly met with Marvel Studios about the film which would explore the past of Scarlett Johansson's Natasha Romanoff says THR.
One that's currently filming right now is the "Captain Marvel" photos and new photos have gone up showing not just Brie Larson running around in her superhero suit on some U.S> city streets, but also offer us a glimpse of Samuel L. Jackson as the 1990s version of Nick Fury – one with hair and two eyes.
It's expected both Jackson and co-star Clark Gregg will get a touch of digital de-aging on screen to look twenty years younger. Gregg pretty much confirmed as such to ComicBook the other day, saying: "There is no gym that can get me back to the 90s, and they said: 'Well, don't worry. We've been working on that technology, and we think we can goose you back a few years.'"
That film is slated for a March 2019 release.

He said that the proposal to temporarily suspend spice imports was presented by the Minister of Development Strategies and International Trade Malik Samarawickrama.Furthermore, Bandara said that under the Orders which were taken into the debate, several taxes imposed on imported sanitary napkins would also be scrapped. Apart from a 30 percent Cess tax would be imposed on imports of polypropylene bags.
Further, he said, "14.3% of export income is from condiments but there were many issues with regard to the condiments sector especially with regard to pepper, areca nut, tamarind, nutmeg, cinnamon etc. There is a huge demand and value for Sri Lankan black pepper. Sri Lankan pepper and cinnamon is known to be the best in the world, but during the past few years the farmers growing these condiments have been facing serious difficulties and they even launched many protests drawing attention to their issues. This is a quite rightful demand. Therefore, the decision to temporarily suspend spice imports was made to protect the local spice cultivators.

By Yishane Lee
Chris Potter is a world-renowned saxophonist and composer who has been living with Ménière's disease, a hearing and balance disorder, for two decades. We're thrilled that he is our second Les Paul Ambassador.
The Les Paul Ambassadors were created with the Les Paul Foundation to honor guitar great Les Paul, who had hearing loss and tinnitus. The program promotes awareness of tinnitus and hearing loss and the search for a cure through our groundbreaking Hearing Restoration Project.
We profile Potter in our Spring issue of Hearing Health magazine. Here is an excerpt:
"I got Ménière's disease in my mid-20s. I've lost pretty much all my hearing in my left ear—there's just ringing. It was absolutely terrifying. I was getting episodes of dizziness, and my hearing would go up and down. In the meantime, I'd have to wake up at 5 a.m. and take three flights to get to a performance that night—when I didn't even know if I would be able to stand up.
"It was very stressful, as was not knowing if it would happen in both ears, but I somehow made it through. It's something you get used to. But the vertigo alone is life-altering. You don't feel comfortable making plans."
Potter tried various treatments with different degrees of success. He shares his story in an effort to show solidarity with other musicians who have hearing issues, and to help HHF find a cure for hearing loss and tinnitus.
Read more from Potter's candid interview about being a musician with hearing loss and Ménière's disease.
Learn more about the amazing Les Paul, who died in 2009 at age 94, and the industry-altering advances he made in the world of music production and technology. His dear friend Lou Pallo, a guitar hero in his own right, was our first Les Paul Ambassador.

Distant train whistle,
steel wheels churning, tracks clacking.
Someones coming home.
Roaring jet above,
rattling the clouds and rooftop.
Someones coming home.
Screaming sirens wail
piercing afternoon solace.
Someones leaving home.
Non-stop barking dog,
lonely for his young master.
Someone is not home.
Cooling sea breeze wafts,
skies turn azure and mango.
Someones missing home.

Raining it is not

Worry about Sunshine
Feeling a bit down.
I have a headache today.
Company sick too.
Headache is now gone.
Company has not yet come
and may not show up
In some ways relieved
This person's a lot of work
Expectations gone!
He's an old colleague
Who comes and sleeps away time
Why don't I get it?
I've finished my bath
hot water feels relaxing
my day is now done
Evolution spans the Universe.
Monday laundry day
