Cider Review: Ace SPACE Bloody Orange Craft Cider
I recently received a bottle of Ace's new SPACE Bloody Orange Craft Cider–a cider fermented with blood orange puree. While the result is not what I'd call apple-centric, it makes for an interesting Mimosa of sorts.
Catching Up
First of all, Happy New Year! If 2016 is anything like 2015 in the world of cider, it will be a wild ride, so buckle up!
While you've haven't seen much of me online lately, it's not for lack of involvement in all things cider. Primarily, I've been in the midst of recipe experimentation for my cidery startup, St. Vrain Cidery. Add to this my planting about 200 cider apple trees, starting a new, cidermaking-focused site (ciderschool–check it out if you're interested in cidermaking, orcharding, or meadmaking), and my day job, and it's been hard to keep up a regular posting schedule.
I'm hopeful that I'll be able to change that in 2016, however–there will be a lot to talk about!
Now, on to the cider review…
The Concept
Just when I'd thought that all possible Star Wars-themed product ideas had been done, here comes a hard cider timed to the release of the latest film.
Here's how Ace's founder, describes it in Hard Cider News:
"In the 70s my wife, Angela, appeared as an extra in the iconic cantina scene in the original Star Wars movie, and I created this new flavor in her honor, and because we both love the Star Wars franchise," said Jeffrey House, ACE's founder and an early visionary in the hard cider market. "Blood orange and tart apple is an other-worldly flavor combination, so it's a perfect tie-in to the new film."
Made with hard apple cider and a puree of fresh blood orange to create a vivid orange color, House recommends SPACE as an alternative to the traditional mimosa. SPACE is available in supermarkets, natural food grocers, and beverage retailers in markets across the United States. The product is unfiltered and gluten free and is available on draft and in 22-ounce bottles. The suggested retail price for the bottles is $5.99 and $6.99.
Despite my normal cynicism, I have to admit that I found the concept intriguing and amusingly geeky. I've also had blood orange ciders before–see my review of Two Rivers' Blood Orange cider here–so I was interested to see how Ace approached the concept from a flavor perspective.
The Pour
ORANGE! SO ORANGE!. The color is not as dark as I'd have anticipated from blood orange, however. If the blood orange puree was part of the initial fermentation, that might explain this– I've seen yeast metabolize a lot of pigments out of a bright red apple juice, for instance. SPACE is unfiltered and cloudy, with a strong whiff of citrus on the nose. I couldn't discern any apple aroma. The carbonation level is moderate and serves to push the aromas into your nose, giving you a blast of fresh citrus.
The Flavor
The flavor is predominantly that of a very tart, fresh orange juice–in fact, I can't pick out any apple in the flavor profile at all. That's not to say that it's unpleasant–it seems like a perfectly good alternative to a sparkling wine-based mimosa–but…just don't expect any apple flavor from it.
Overall Impression
While I wish Ace had struck more balance with the apple component, I didn't really have any illusions. This was never going to be a cider purist's regular drink. It does, however, have its place at parties, and as something unique to try. At just under 7% ABV, it's also a lot less lethal than most sparkling wines…something your head may thank you for the next morning.
And lest all the perfectly good fantasy geekery get lost completely in the sci fi madhouse that is Star Wars, here's my contribution toward combining the two:

Does anyone think that cutting over 18,000 taxes that foreign countries put on Made-in-America products would help Californian companies' competitiveness? If we helped our local small and medium-sized businesses more easily navigate the process of selling to customers based in Japan, Mexico, Canada, Australia, Brunei, Chile, Malaysia, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam, would they grow their business?
Smart people would say yes. And after five years of exhaustive and lengthy negotiations, our country is presenting us with a tool to make this happen.
Southern California employs more people in trade and logistics than any other sector. For this reason, we should all be paying close attention to negotiations going on in Congress on the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The largest free trade accord in a generation, the TPP involves 12 nations who collectively make up 40 percent of the global economy. As America's gateway to Asia, no region in the U.S. has more to gain from TPP than Southern California. But for some reason, our very own congressional leaders need help understanding this.
With the promise of delivering jobs, increasing exports and spurring economic growth throughout Southern California, details of the TPP will matter for the regional supply chain – including Riverside. The most notable local impact of TPP will be on our trade and logistics industry. Southern California serves as the largest transportation node in the U.S. Forty percent of the nation's containers pass through the twin ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, and for every additional $1 billion in exports shipped through U.S. seaports, 15,000 good-paying jobs are created.
Looking at it from the state perspective, TPP will strengthen investment ties between California and all TPP countries. Nearly 1,900 California businesses are subsidiaries of companies based in TPP countries, serving as an important source of business investment and job creation in the state.
L.A. County was recently deemed the unfortunate, biggest loser among counties in California, with the highest rates of migrating businesses. The whole state is estimated to have lost $68 billion due to businesses moving to states like Texas and Nevada, where they save an average of 25-35 percent in operating costs. Given that so many employers continue to leave our state, it is more critical than ever to support initiatives that will strengthen economic development and job growth in California. In 2011, trade with TPP countries supported an estimated 1.7 million jobs in California. TPP will build on these trade and investment relationships and support the California jobs that depend on them.
TPP is actually the first American free trade agreement to include a separate chapter focusing on issues specific to small and medium-sized enterprises. To ensure ongoing engagement by TPP parties, the SME chapter establishes a Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises Committee, which would meet regularly to review how well SMEs are availing themselves of the benefits of the TPP. The committee will focus on capacity building activities for SMEs in areas like export counseling, trade assistance and training programs.
Ultimately, TPP will serve as a platform for Southern California regional integration, and it will support and bolster the multicultural trading system. By removing barriers and strengthening partnerships, the TPP will encourage companies in TPP countries to increase their business investment in California, supporting economic growth and jobs throughout the state.

Krishna in the dock: the 1862 Maharaja libel case and its consequences – I
The cardinal idea of the doctrine of Vallabhacharya is the incarnation in his person and in that of his descendents of Krishna, and the enjoyment for that reason, of the right to confer upon the faithful the privilege upon this earth of a personal union with the deity of their worship. Theoretically speaking, were this personal union to be regarded spiritually and held to elevate the mind to an intimate union with the highest moral principle; were it to hold forth by meditation and isolation some incentive to a consideration of self-annihilation and self-denial, this doctrine might have claims upon our attention as doing some, however limited, a good. But preached to a people who, from climatic influences and early conditions of puberty are peculiarly lascivious and prurient, the evil grows more and more enormous with the progress of the sect. …Gloomy faiths, bound to asceticism, have no real hold on the moral conduct of the professors of them, but a religion which rushes into an opposite extreme, and stimulates an evil too great already for the patience of mankind and civilisation, deserves to be trodden out.
Anthropological Review, Vol.4, No.14, 1866
I've referred to the 1862 Maharaja libel case several times on enfolding, so I thought it was high time to take a closer look at the case and some of its consequences. In this first post, I'll outline some of the key points of the case itself, and follow up with some critical commentary and observations.
The Light of Truth
The libel case was brought in response to an article by Karsandas Mulji, the editor of the Bombay-based Gujurati newspaper Satya Prakash ("Light of Truth"). Titled, "The Primitive Religion of the Hindus and the Present Heterodox Opinions", the article made a forceful case against the sect known as the Vallabhacharya Sampradaya (or Pushti Marg) – devoted to Krishna was a "new" and "heretical" religion – particularly as it had arisen within the period of the Kaliyug. Mulji argued that Hinduism must be singular, and that the idea of multiple religions branching off from that originary source was "a deceitful proposition".
Mulji also asserted that the leaders of this sect – the Maharajas – were immoral and "lost in a sea of licentiousness", making the specific charge that the Maharajas were engaging in unlawful (sexual) congress with the wives and daughters of their male devotees – and named one of the Maharajas – Jadunathji Maharaj: "We ask Jadunathjee Maharaj in what Ved, in what Puran, in what Shastra, and in what law-book it is written that one's married wife should be made over to a Maharaj or to a religious preceptor before being enjoyed. Not only one's wife, but one's daughter also is to be made over! …. In the Kaliyug many other heresies and many other sects have arisen besides that of Vallabhacharya, but no other sectaries have ever perpetrated such shamelessness, subtility, immodesty, rascality, and deceit as have the sect of the Maharajas."
On 14th May 1861, Jadunathji Maharaj filed a plaint in the Supreme Court of Bombay, claiming that the article in Satya Prakash was libellous, and asking for damages in the region of 50,000 rupees. The case came to trial early in 1862, and lasted for three months. The case was presided over by Sir Matthew Richard Sausse, the first chief justice of the High Court of Bombay and Judge Joseph Arnould, and both the Maharaj and Mulji were represented by English counsel. The proceedings were reported on by the Bombay Gazette and The Times of India.
The Maharaj's case was that he was a valid religious authority and guru within his tradition; that his religous views were not heterodox within his religion, and that he was not guilty of "improper conduct." The Defendants countered with the plea that the Maharaj was not a valid preceptor and the Vallabhacharya – being of modern date – "15th century of the Christian era" – was "altogether repugnant to and at variance with the religious doctrines and practices of the ancient Hindu religion". The defence further averred that the religious books of the Vallabhacharya contained many passages of "indecent and immoral character" in which "adultery and fornication are encouraged and commended", summing up with the assertion that the "supposed libel" of the the original newspaper article and its statements were true in substance and effect.
Several witnesses were called to testify that the Maharaj was a legitimate authority for his tradition – and the cross-examination shows that the officers of the court had some difficulty in establishing the beliefs on and practices of the Vallabhacharyas to their satisfaction – particularly in establishing the distinction between god and guru:
Mr Anstey: Do some Banias believe the Maharaj to be a God?
Witness: We consider him to be our gooroo.
Sir M. Sausse: Tell witness if he does not answer the question, he will be sent to jail.
Witness: What is the precise question? (interpreter explains) Some consider the Maharaj a god in the shape of gooroo.
Mr Anstey: Is Gooroo a God?
Witness: Gooroo is gooroo.
Sir M Sausse: Tell him if he does not answer the question, most indubitaly will he go to jail.
Sir Joseph Arnould: Tell him he is asked what others believe, not as to his own belief.
Witness: I don't know if others believe him as God; I consider him as simply a gooroo. I don't know under what name others worship him.
As Sir Joseph Arnould admitted during the proceedings, the difficulty of establishing libel was complicated by the fact that the court had no real idea about what constituted orthodoxy or heterodoxy in this context: "We don't know what what heterodoxy is, and we don't know what heresy is; for we don't know what the Shastras themselves are." The court was being tasked with making a legal judgement as to what constituted Hindu orthodoxy – and the means chosen was the comparison of ancient "Shastric" authority (texts) to local and modern practice.
As the case proceeded, the scope of the enquiry broadened out so that it was not merely a consideration of libel, but the morality of Vallabhacharya practice and beliefs – as well as the Maharaja himself that came under close scrutiny, and eventually – were found wanting.
gurus, but not gods
On 7th February 1862, Karsandas Mulji took the stand. He presented himself as a member of the Bania caste group, and one who was born into the Vallabhacharya and that he believed the Maharajas to be gurus, but not "gods". Mulji stated that he written several pamphlets and books, in addition to being editor of Satya Prakash. He restated his assertion that the Maharajas are not Brahmins of high caste, and that the Vallabhacharya religion does not teach "self-denial". There was some debate about whether he was to be considered a learned authority capable of interpreting the scriptural texts of the Vallabhacharyas – Mr. Bayley, the Maharaja's counsel objected to this preferment, but he was overruled.
Mulji then presented over thirty translations of Vaishnava texts for the court's consideration, for example:
"When the Sarasvat age shall arrive, you will be born as Gopis in Vrij. There, in the forest of Vrinda, I will gratify your desire in a chorus; and your adulterine love for me will exceed all (other love). By means of such a love, you will gain me and your object will be thus accomplished." In this manner Shri Krishna told the Traditions to gain (him) by adulterine love. These Traditions of the Veds who became the Gopikas are called the Traditional persons.
Following the presentation of the texts, Mulji then proceeding to familiarise the court with Krishna – laying particular stress on his "marriage" to sixteen thousand gopis and that "there is no sport imputed to Krishna which is not amorous sport". Once more he asserted that "It is a matter of general reputation in the sect that all of the Maharajas have carnal intercourse with the wives and daughters of their more zealous devotees"; that the Maharaja conducts a festival in which he has promiscuous intercourse with many women, and moreover that, during the Holi festival, the Maharaja throws gulal at the breasts of women, and that this, according to the Shastras, is a sin equal to adultery. He stated that "I am not ashamed to say that there was a time when I followed the doctrines of the Vallabhacharya religion more strictly than I do now. …I was an author and a journalist before I became a reformer. The tyranny and evil practices of the Maharaj's induced me to write against them." He also produced a variety of newspaper articles and pamphlets which demonstrated that there had been other attacks on the "immoral practices" of the Maharajas dating from 1855 onwards.
On the 8th February, the defence produced an "expert witness" – Dr. John Wilson, a Scottish Presbyterian missionary and Indologist – a member of the Royal Society of Great Britain, and the Bombay branch of the Royal Asiatic Society (currently honorary president). Wilson then proceeded to explain to the court that "the most ancient books of the Hindus are the Veds … they are believed to be the works of divine revelation in the highest sense of the word" and went on to explain that the "Vishnoo Puran" belongs to a later period. He asserted that:
"It is a historical fact, that the more modern religions are less moral and less pure. Very great changes have occurred in India with reference to the gods, positively for the worse, as admitted by the Hindus themselves."
Wilson went on to describe the history of the Vallabhacharya religion and its sixteenth-century founder, Vallabha. He quoted approvingly the views of Dr. Horace H Wilson:
Amongst other articles of the new creed, Vallabha introduced one which is rather singular for a Hindu religious innovator or reformer: he taught, that privation formed no part of sanctity, and that it was the duty of the teachers and his disciples to worship their deity, not in nudity and hunger, but in costly apparel and choice food, not in solitude and mortification, but in the pleasures of society and the enjoyment of the world.
Wilson concurred with HH Wilson that the sect was "impure". He quoted from a Sanskrit drama, in order to give "a more faithful picture" of Vallabhacharya morality:
The Veds have fled: lovely damsels now look to the gratification of sense with the descendants of Vallabh; the descendent of Vallabh is the kisser of females; he feels lust at every step for his large-eyed damsels. Offering one's-self and one's wives and daughters to the gooroos is in this world the only course of salvation. Carnal intercourse with females, dining and playing with them, is one of the principal offices of Krishna. The nectarine pleasure of Shree Gocul (Krishna) is better than a thousand other expedients. If copulation does not take place with Krishna, the existence of the paramour of man is worse than that of a worm.
"disgusting details"
On the 22nd April, 1862, Sir Matthew Sausse delivered judgement. Although he found judgement in favour of the plantiff (the Maharaja) in terms of three minor pleas, he ruled in favour of the defendant (Mulji) and awarded him all costs. Sausse stated that although he wanted to avoid any "reiteration of … disgusting details" he commented that "All songs connected with the God Krishna, which were brought before us were of an amorous character, and it appeared that songs of a corrupting and licentious tendency, both in idea and expression, are sung by young females to the Maharaja, upon festive occasions, in which they are identified with the God in his most licentious aspect. In these songs, as well as in stories, both written and traditional, which latter are treated as of a religious character in the sect, the subject of sexual intercourse is most prominent."
Sir Joseph Arnould commented that "A public journalist is a public teacher: the true function of the press, that by virtue of which it has rightly grown to be one of the great powers of the modern world – is the function of teaching, elevating and enlightening those who fall within the range of its influence. To expose and denounce evil and barbarous practices; to attack usages and customs inconsistent with moral purity and social progress, is one of its highest, its most imperative duties. … As editor of the Satya Prakash the defendant was, in my opinion, acting within the clear limits of his duty in denouncing to a public … the moral delinquencies of the Maharaja." He also felt it necessary to pronounce judgement on the worship of Krishna: "It is Krishna, the darling of the 16,000 Gopees; Krishna the love-hero – the husband of the 16,000 princesses, who is the paramount object of Vallabhacharya's worship. This tinges the whole system with the stain of carnal sensualism, of strange, transcendental lewdness. See, for instance, how the sublime Brahminical doctrine of unition with "Brahma" is tainted and degraded mode of regarding the Deity. … The teachers of the Vallabhacharyan sect do not absolutely discard this great tenet, but they degrade it."

In a recent article in a popular monthly magazine the author was discussing fiction writing. Specifically, he mused about the choice he had made to abandon writing a long thought about novel in favor of the kind of brief articles and stories that appeared in newspapers. He admitted that the rewards of being able to construct a novel and bring it to successful fruition by way of character development, pacing, plot and message were probably most gratifying. But all regrets aside of never finishing the novel, he gained a great deal of pleasure in knowing that he could take a phone call at a newspapers city desk from a reporter 20 minutes before deadline and produce five paragraphs about a three alarm fire from the reporters jumbled message.Making snapshots of one's family and editing them down to a few images that record the facts, emotions and trials of family life could be compared to the above example of newspaper writing. The photographs by Joni Sternbach could be compared to a novelist creating a work of fiction. Sternbach stages photographs using herself, husband, son and sometimes friends and other family members. She creates tableaux's that mimic the kinds of remembrances associated with family snapshots but includes enough sardonic humor, emotional gymnastics and intimate moments to dispel any link with simple family reportage. Sternbach concentrates mainly on the relationship of husband and wife and how that is affected when a son is born. Her work resounds with a gracious flair for describing the tedious and tiring sacrifices, the concern about vanity and appeal, and the sharing and distance felt when a family of two becomes a family of three.Unlike family snapshots that require a certain intimacy with the subjects for them to be fully appreciated, Sternbach's work seduces the viewer with the familiar and confronts them with a highly personal and humorous look at a young contemporary family.Jeffrey Hoone (c)1988

Kazakhstan: Blue Water Lands Tengiz Work
Danish vessel owner and Manchester Shipping to transport modules to Kazakhstan for FGP-WPMP scheme, Upstream reported.
Danish vessel owner Blue Water Shipping and its partner have won a deal to transport modules to Kazakhstan for the giant Chevron-led Tengiz field expansion project.
The Blue Water-led consortium including freight forwarder Manchester Shipping will transport modules from the Baltic Sea and Black Sea to Prorva in Kazakhstan via the Russian inland waterway system in support of the Tengizchevroil (TCO) Future Growth Project-Wellhead Pressure Management project (FGP-WPMP).
The contract will involve the use of up to 11 barges and 29 tugs, with some modification and upgrading work to be undertaken.
Last year Blue Water won three contracts related to FGP-WPMP. It is leading two consortia in supplying 20 modular carrying vessels for transporting modules from the Russian inland waterway system and Caspian Sea to Prorva.
Last July Chevron pulled the trigger on the monster $36.8 billion Tengiz oilfield expansion project. The FGP-WPMP development will increase oil production at the field by about 260,000 barrels per day.
FGP-WPMP is estimated to cost $36.8 billion, which includes $27.1 billion for facilities, $3.5 billion for wells and $6.2 billion for contingency and escalation.
Tengiz is operated by Tengizchevroil (TCO) – a 50% Chevron-owned affiliate, in which state player KazMunaiGas holds 20%, ExxonMobil 25% and Lukarco 5%.
Following the expansion, TCO's total production will increase to approximately 1 million barrels of oil equivalent per day.

We do not hear of bus accidents as often as we do accidents involving cars, trucks and even motorcycles. They do happen, however, and they can be devastating. If you've been involved in a bus accident, you know firsthand the pain that is involved, and you know the confusion that comes along with that pain.
Because you were not at fault, it is your right to seek compensation for the medical bills and other expenses that have resulted from the accident. You should not have to pay for the negligence of someone else; the damages can be so extensive that you could be paying financially and physically for the rest of your life. Fortunately, you have an attorney who will work very hard for you.
Types Of Bus Accidents
There are different types of bus accidents. They include:
- Collision with a car or truck
- Collision with a pedestrian
- Collision with a bicycle
- Collision with an object in which passengers are injured or killed
- Driver error that leads to passengers being injured or killed
- Mechanical defect that results in a crash
No matter the cause, your bus accident attorney needs to pursue the negligent party on your behalf for the damages that have been done to you. You didn't ask to be injured, so you should be able to do something about it in some way.
Bus Accident Injuries
The injuries can range from temporary to permanent. The injuries can include broken bones, fractures, head injuries, spine injuries, brain injuries, paralysis and other forms of personal disability. No matter the injury, there are costs associated with treatment. For those with permanent disabilities, the financial impact can last a lifetime.
Bus Accident Claims
Bus accident claims may consist of a number of damages. Of course, the damages sought will depend upon your particular case. For instance, an injury case will most likely consist of claims for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and emotional distress. If you have lost a loved one due to someone's carelessness, you can add loss of support and funeral expenses to the list.
Do not rely on the insurance company of the negligent party to offer you compensation; it is rarely enough. They'll try to low ball the offer as much as they can. This is why you should contact your personal injury attorney before you ever talk to the other party's insurance company.
St. Paul Bus Accident Lawyers
If you have been injured in a bus accident due to someone else's negligence or you have lost a loved one in an accident, you need legal assistance as soon as possible. There are physical, emotional and financial costs. While wounds can be permanent, the financial consequences do not have to be.

Love Island star has no plans to slow down over the Christmas period
Hi guys,
I'm so excited! Today's the day when my fitness plan finally goes live!
I've been working really hard with my trainer Sam Witter to create a programme that covers exercise videos, nutrition advice, recipe ideas and workout tips.
You don't need a gym membership to take part, you don't need loads of equipment, and you can do it in the comfort of your own home.
And most importantly, it's not about weight loss - it's about getting a healthy body and feeling brilliant about yourself.
Seeing as it's Christmas, this week I'm discussing all on how I keep fit over the festive period...

Love Island's Kady McDermott flaunts incredible bodyThursday, October 27, 2016

Christmas day workout
I try to exercise most days, and Christmas is no exception. The thing is, I really enjoy exercising. And if I workout a bit, I can have a few more pigs-in-blankets!
My top three exercises to do at home are lunges, squats, and the plank.
Squats and lunges are great for toning and strengthening the entire body, not just your legs and bum, and the plank is amazing for your abs, back and core. If you can hold a plank for two minutes you're doing well.
Running for charity
I'm running a 10K for the Brain Tumour Research charity in the new year as it's very close to my heart. My nan passed away a couple of years back from a brain tumour and I was extremely close to her. Ever since then I've been raising lots of money for the Brain Tumour Research charity. They're a lovely organisation - hit them up here @braintumourrsch.
I was a sprinter at school – I represented my county – so 100m is no problem, but longer distances are a bit trickier! A 10k is going to be really hard for me, but hopefully I manage it and after that then I'd love to work towards a full marathon.
Scott won't be doing the run with me as unfortunately he broke his leg in a motorcycle accident and had to be airlifted to hospital back in October last year. He's now got a massive metal rod running through it and struggles to walk, let alone run.
Christmas Day
It's Christmas and a roast is my favourite thing ever, therefore I WILL be having some potatoes and Yorkshire puddings - it's rude not to, no?! But my plate will mostly be filled with greens, turkey and pigs in blankets they're my favourite! Turkey's pretty lean and healthy so I won't feel too guilty about that.
I'll be spending Christmas with Scott too as it's our first one together, and I'm really looking forward to it. We put our tree up together (well, I did most of it) and I've tried hard to get him in the Christmas spirit.
He doesn't really have any proper traditions so I've been making sure he adopts mine - like wearing a really ugly Xmas jumper on Christmas day, which is a proper tradition in the McDermott household!
Kady's Bikini Plan
I'm honestly speechless at how brilliant the response to my fitness plan has been from the public! I've already had thousands upon thousands of people sign up, even before it launched, which is just unreal. Every day people are tweeting me saying how much they're looking forward to getting started. And it'll be so nice to help girls across the country to achieve their dream bikini body! Girl power!
My Love Island co-stars have been really nice and supportive too, and it means the world to me. Rachel Fenton, Emma-Jane Woodhams and Katie Salmon have sent me really nice messages.
It's going to be AMAZING! There will be over 200 recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack ideas. All healthy quick and simple recipes, which anyone can make, for yourself or families.
There's a a 90 day exercise plan and video tutorials, with Sam taking me through intense 20-30 minute exercise sessions. There's a progress tracker, where you upload your before and after pictures or gym selfies and enter your body measurements, which then allows you to watch your body change as you get results.
And there's even something called an Inspiration Wall, where you can make your very own collage of your aspirations and goals. Whether that's to look like Kendall Jenner or Beyoncé, or to go big and complete a Tough Mudder course, it's your call.
I'm not a personal trainer
I have never claimed to be a personal trainer. I'm not the professional, Sam is. But I have always been fit, active and competing in sport since I was four years old. I've always danced, I was on various teams at school, and I've always loved gymnastics. It's not like fitness is a bandwagon I'm just jumping on - I've ALWAYS done it. And together Sam and I make a pretty good team.
I don't think I'd become a personal trainer either, who knows what the future holds, but right now I'm happy being the enthusiastic and passionate amateur.
That's it for this week,
Merry Christmas everyone and please sign up to Kady's Bikini Plan which goes live today!
Kady xXx

Lookouts! Communications! Escape Routes! Safety Zones! LCES!! Yeah Baby!!
Moving from "Followership To Leadership!"
I'm a crew-member on a well respected hotshot crew. Last year I got a promotion and became a "senior firefighter." That put me at an interesting cross-roads in my wild-land fire fighting career, moving from being, "just one of the guys," to a position that is a wee-bit more. I am not yet a boss but at the same time I am expected to lead by example. I have more responsibilities--more eyes scrutinizing me.
This year one of my responsibilities is to teach two classes during our "critical 40" refresher. "Critical 40" is the 40 hours that a hotshot crew uses to become fire ready, before they are able to go on a fire assignment. Actually, I just checked out the national IHC (Interagency Hotshot Crew) operations guide and found out it is called the, "critical 24." But my particular crew--and others I believe, do more then the mandatory 24 hours required and bump it up to 40 hours of training before becoming available for assignment and hitting the boards.
I am nervous and excited for the opportunity to teach. I have some ideas forming!
I do believe this is a photo of Paul Gleason, founder of LCES (I could be wrong!)
The sequester robbed me of an opportunity!
I was scheduled to take a class called M-410 this winter. M-410 is a wonderful class (I'm told). It is a class called, "Facilitative Instructor," basically a class on how to teach. How perfect is that? But the class was rescheduled, I had to change my airplane ticket from Southern Mexico to accommodate the change (cost me about $400), then a week before, the class was totally canceled do to the sequester! I decided to fly home for the week anyway as not to waste my ticket and that decision caused me to have long arguments with my girlfriend--I had a breakup because of the sequester! Don't let anyone tell you that the sequester doesn't hurt! (I have since repaired things with my wonderful senorita)
So I am untrained at training and now I am expected to teach. My inexperience is just part of the problem. The other obstacle that I face is the fact that my co-workers, the guys I am expected to teach, are all very experienced firefighters, most of whom are "returnees." So I have to teach something to a bunch of guys that have already learned or have already listened to the shpeel more then one time. I have to get information across to a bunch of know-it-alls. I need to have a fresh approach or I will be talking to a bunch of blank stares.
I have about a week and a half until I step in front of my peers to teach. This article is actually me brainstorming my approach to teaching these two courses. I hope you enjoy my thoughts!
I have not been totally honest!
I may have exaggerated my naivety a little--I have had some experience teaching. Last year I was a new permanent employee and I was giving the chance to co-teach these two classes, with my boss staring over my shoulder making sure all was covered. I thought I had the perfect angle. Before starting the power point presentation on the 10 standard fire orders and the 18 watch-out situations I gave a short speech.
I asked the group why is it important to become intimately familiar with these wildland fire guidelines, our safety mantra of sorts. I then shocked them with my crazy answer. Sex, I said! Learning the 10's and 18's will bring them a better more satisfying sex life! My reasoning was simple. being a safe firefighter, one who is able to have there head on a swivel, one that is able to take pause and say, "hey this violates the watch-out situation number six, I am not informed on my assignment and tactics," is a firefighter that has a passion for safety.
A firefighter that has a passion for safety is a firefighter that is noticed, a firefighter that is sure to climb to the top echelons of their organization. A firefighter who is safe moves up, a firefighter that moves up makes more money! A person with more money has a more satisfying sex life! Simple right?
How shallow can you get? But, actually, I was a bit off, trying to trick my co-workers into paying attention. There is an even more important, a more real reason to take safety seriously. Life! To stay alive uninjured is a better reason to take safety on the fireline seriously. To know, without doubt that you did and said everything possible to keep your brothers and sisters safe the onus of all that firefighters.
Here they are and they shout "Watch out!"
No bullshit this year!
To prepare for this class and to make up for my cancelled M410 class, I have been reading a Dale Carnegie book called "The Quick And Easy Way To Effective Speaking." He is the author of the famous book "How to Make Friends And Influence People." I love his earnest advice and his clear old fashioned examples of public speaking, also his clear, simple way of writing. I am going to look my class straight in the eyes, speak with an authoritative voice and start with quote I found in Carnegie's great book.
"In almost any subject, your passion for that subject will save you. If you care enough for a result, you will most certainly attain it. If you wish to be good, you will be good. If you wish to be rich, you will be rich. If you wish to be learned, you will be learned. Only then you must really wish these things and wish them with exclusiveness and not wish one hundred other incompatible things just as strongly." William James, professor of psychology at Harvard.
I think this quote is beautiful and certainly pertains to safety on the fireline. But how does one instill this earnest passion for safety? Certainly not by promising a better sex life.
I want to instill our core values....Pride, Safety, Teamwork.
A quick reader's poll
Does having a passion for safety, concerning wildland firefighters, lead to a more fulfilling sex life for that firefighter?

One of the things I've heard people say quite often, and something I've even used myself, is that everything is okay in moderation.
We've been taught this for years, whether from doctors, through diets, in schools, and in the media.
That being said, we need to finally delete the myth of "everything in moderation" from our brains, particularly in relation to our nutrition.
The truth is, when we learn definitively from the World Health Organization that the processed meats most of us consume cause cancer, there is no moderate amount that is acceptable for us to consume.
Actually- they put processed meats – bacon, hot dogs, and sausage to name a few – in the same category as tobacco and asbestos. I say again, TOBACCO AND ASBESTOS.
Red meat (beef, lamb, and pork) was listed in the "probably carcinogenic" group this year. On a side note, the WHO also added glysophate to this category, which is the active ingredient in many weedkillers. Yes, weedkillers. An herbicide is in the same category as beef, lamb, and pork.
Moderation doesn't work with high sugar foods and drinks either, particularly with soda. One can of soda, on average, has around 40 grams of sugar. This is twice the recommended amount of TOTAL daily sugar for women, and 1 1/2 times the TOTAL daily recommended amount of sugar for men.
Yet, many of us will continue to eat processed and red meats, and consume soda.
Hey- I get it, bacon is delicious. I was speaking at a military event two years ago, and it wasn't until I mentioned the word bacon, that one of the Soldiers in the room finally looked up and started listening. I could have stood on my head naked, but bacon is what got his attention.
Moderation is appropriate when the food you want to consume is a healthy whole food, which includes fruits, veggies, legumes (fancy nutrition code word for beans, peas, and lentils), and whole grains.
When you're talking about soda, or something that causes cancer – like hot dogs, bacon, sausage, and cold cuts – there truly is no "moderate" amount that is acceptable.
Take a deep breath, feel into your body, and ask it if there is an acceptable amount of cancer causing food your body is okay with?
Is your body okay with consuming high sugar foods and drinks that cause us to gain weight, develop inflammation, and contribute to a host of degenerative diseases?
Of course not.
We need to stop focusing as much on treating cancer, and start focusing more on PREVENTING cancer.
If you are going to eat some of these WHO Group 1 and Group 2A list foods (their 'causes cancer' and 'probably causes cancer' lists), do so knowing it's not ok.
In other words, let go of the "moderation" excuse. Own it. And try to change it.
Start by cutting back and eating more whole foods. But let go of the excuse of moderation and be conscious of what you're eating.
Because moderation is only acceptable when we're talking about real, whole foods.
Life is too precious to eat cancer causing foods.
Take good care,
ps- I'm now on a quest to learn whether my nitrate free, GMO free, gluten free, antibiotic free, cassein free, humanely raised organic bacon also falls into Group 1. If it does, I'll be having my own "Come to Jesus" moment in relation to my most favorite chili recipe.

Your Wedding will be a Bespoke Experience
Our job is to make your wedding unique: the bespoke experience you've always dreamt about and which will leave your guests speechless. When couples visit our offices they see dozens and dozens of pictures of former MCW couples on our walls, each of whom have had very, very different types of weddings.
In fact, one of the most satisfying and enjoyable aspects of planning someone's wedding is the knowledge that this particular type of wedding has never happened before, nor will it ever happen again.
We are not here to create "cookie-cutter weddings," or "wedding packages." We are here to create your vision.
Our relationship with the couple
The quality of the relationship with "our couples" as we call them, is at the core of how we run our business.
Throughout the wedding planning process we get to know you as a couple and get to know what you are like and what you want from us and from the wedding. One of the great pleasures of a wedding planner is keeping in touch with couples throughout their married life. We are always pleased to receive news of how "our couples" are doing and how their families are expanding.
Another added benefit for us is that Monte-Carlo Weddings couples keep on recommending our services to their friends. In fact, a full 55 % of clients last year came to us through past clients!
Multi-lingual, Multi-cultural
The Monte-Carlo Weddings team is a multi-lingual and multi-cultural team with experience in many different types of weddings.
We understand that there are many unwritten cultural aspects to planning a wedding. If we take on a wedding for which we do not have the appropriate cultural expertise, we make sure to get it so that we can be up to speed in the customs and traditions showcased.
Every year our clientele becomes more and more international. Thanks to our top-notch reputation with past clients and local suppliers as well to our presence on UK, French and Danish television, Monte-Carlo Weddings continues to grow from year to year.

Affordable Life Insurance Quotes Online
There are a spread of web sites in which you can accomplish cheap life assurance quotes. In plain minutes you will find many quotations from a selection of insurance suppliers and compare the varied rates. What to think about when hunting for quotes You need to use an entire array of web services to obtain cheap quotes from many insurance firms. You'll be asked to reply to a few questions and give a little bit of private info, but when you do, you can receive quotes in seconds on the internet.
It's really important to grasp all that you can about a specific company and what they have to supply before choosing on which one to pick. Life assurance includes many options and it's necessary to comprehensively inspect each one of them first before going on to make your last call. Some insurance programmes are called completely underwritten and are commonly considered the best insurance plans to have. If you're in fairly good health and make good selections when talking of your activities, you've more of an opportunity of paying lower rates on your policy.
Differing types of policies There are lots of different policies and when you check for reasonable term life assurance quotes a credible representative can lead you thru your different options. Many of those policies are raised prices than others, so it's critical that you understand completely all the terms and rates well before choosing which kind to buy. Term insurance is the perfect sort of policy for the individual that only desires insurance for a brief period of time like 10-20 years. A graded life policy is also a convenient option. You won't have to answer as many health questions and it includes assured coverage.
If you have waited some time in life to obtain insurance, this could be your top choice vis policies. A Universal policy is comparable to a term policy, but you won't have the necessity to safeguard the policy when the term is reached. There's withdrawal options included also, and it has the aptitude for building money value. With term insurance there's a set period in which your policy is valid. After this time, your policy can then be replenished. Joint policies are also an available kind of insurance, but they aren't as plentiful as they once were.
They're good selections for insuring more than one individual on a policy, though they come with higher premiums. Save time online It isn't almost as hard as it used to be taking insurance quotes, and technical advancements of the web make it even easier. Many network associates can swiftly and effectively access many quotes for you straight from the privacy of your house.No longer would you like to have to spend unending hours doing the analysis alone. Thru many internet sites you may be matched up with some of the top insurance suppliers in the business and all at one or two clicks of your mouse.
Terro White - About Author:
For reasonable cheap life insurance quotes and reasonable term life assurance quotes, the Net is surely the place to look. In these doubtful times economically, it isn't a brilliant idea for any person to be without satisfactory coverage from a practicable insurance supplier.

Hi there Malo, i am also on the same cruise, same date and on golden deck as well. Maybe see you there!
I have been on several cruises and it can be a bit choppy at the front of the ship, but it all depends on the weather though. May should be ok. If you are worried, it may be worth pre booking the cabin with Island for a small fee, and choosing a mid ship one.
Midship is best but we have travelled at the front and its fine if its choppy it doesnt matter where you are it will still rol.
We first went on escape for our silver wedding our cabin number was 9509 and was ok im bad sailer and it was ok that was outside cabin last year we were in cabin number outside on diamond deck it was number 7500 right at bow off ship really rocky you heard every thing we even saw crew putting out ropes they were like little ants running about in morning and night on golden deck cabin was at side so you never heard a thing and we were up above bridge you will enjoy your cruise we have done island every year since 2003 we were on star first year she came out 2006 she is big ship but does not matter what one you do staff are all nice and frendley cant do enough for you they work hard probley for peanuts they are worth everytp you give them its quite sad on last day coming off ship you get used to seeing them every day enjoy your cruise.
The front is fine we went across the atlantic and it was ok mid ship is better though. this ship is agreat ship and the captain is fantastic have a great time.
I ment to say if you tell waiters in retaurant they will do something for your husbands bithrday they came to my table when it was mine sang to me and brought small cake with candle init it was quite a shock .
Has any one stayed in the grand suite on the island escape? if so whats it like as we are going late november 2010.

The natural objective of the programme is to give engineering graduates a solid scientific foundation. The basic sciences of chemistry, electricity, physics and mechanics constitute a significant part of the course. The comprehension and application of these subjects call for the assimilation of various tools: mathematics, computer science, geometry. The future engineer thus acquires the rigour essential to his or her future activities. This programme is the first stage which leads to the Master's degree of Engineering.
The engineer must know sciences , but also be able to apply them. On this principle, the second year introduces more technical courses: materials science, electrical machines, thermodynamics, heat transfer, fluid mechanics, mechanics of structures, applied electronics, industrial process control…
The third year curriculum includes 34 specialized credits. The specialized courses aim to help the student to acquire the basic knowledge in his/her focus. The Bachelor's degree entitles him/her to unconditional access, without any need for complementary studies, to the corresponding master's program: chemistry and materials science, electricity, computer and management sciences, mechanics and mining and geology.
For these scientific or technical lessons, half the activities are dedicated to problem-solving classes or laboratory work. These activities illustrate lectures and help the students to better assimilate the theory and prepare them for their future job.
Creativity is intensively developed. As of the 2nd year, students will have to complete projects, which will increase in scale and demand more cross-disciplinary skills as the course progresses.
During their career, engineers cannot limit themselves exclusively to technical work. As for any university student, the knowledge of languages is an undeniable asset. English, an essential key to success, is mandatory throughout the first three years. At the end of the third year, students are evaluated on the basis of the TOEIC (Test of English for International Communication), an internationally recognized test in the business world. This will provide them with a significant advantage on the labour market.
In addition, lectures in economics as well as in the environment make the students aware of the social, ethical and environmental context in which they will exert their activities.
The degree of Bachelor of Science in Engineering Sciences: Engineering enables students to carry on their studies in the focus Master they have chosen as well as in any other Master offered by the Faculty.
The access to the Master of Science in Architecture and Building Engineering is possible, after having passed a preparatory year (< = 60 credits).
The choice of the Bachelor of Science in Engineering Sciences: Architecture is made in the first year. During this year, however, the proportion of courses specific to architecture is limited. The transition to the second year of the Bachelor of Science in Engineering Sciences: Architecture thus remains possible, and vice versa.

Anyone know what it is?

2013 was a pretty decent year for Scooby. Despite the DTVs/specials being a hit and miss, that was all made up for with the final thirteen episodes of Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated. We also saw a release of a new comic featuring Batman & Robin along with a new puppet movie.
Mystery Incorporated
After many delays, we finally saw the final batch of Mystery Inc episodes last year. I found season two to mostly be a improvement over season one{with a couple misses here and there}. The thing I've always loved about SDMI is that it had a ongoing plot. There many series{especially cartoons} that never get a proper ending. Thankfully SDMI did. I know many of us would have liked to see it continue. But I think it really benefited from having a set end date. I also feel like they fixed many of the problems from the first season, specifically with Velma being a more likable character. Fred was still his clueless self but he was definitely less annoying.
And what a crazy finale that was. I think the thing I loved most about the finale is that they basically set up to be a prequel to the original series. I'm maybe not the biggest fan of the whole shifting timelines idea, but I guess they had to do something after they basically killed off every supporting character and completely devastated Crystal Cove. Overall, it was a awesome wrap-up to a otherwise great series.
Mask of the Blue Falcon
The movie side of things was a little less exciting. Even though I gave Mask of the Blue Falcon a 4/5{see my review here}, the more I think about it, the more I think it was a mixed bag. Even though I liked all the comic book and geeky references, I was hoping for an actual team-up with Dynomutt and Blue Falcon{especially after that awesome episode of SDMI}. Plus I hated the whole storyline with Shaggy and Scooby making fools out of themselves.
Scooby-Doo! Adventures: Mystery Map
In July we got a Walmart exclusive DTV that featured the gang as puppets. Honestly, I don't really have anything to say anything about this, mainly because I haven't seen it yet. But Scooby-Doom gave it a positive review
Stage Fright
Looking back at my review, I'm actually surprised I gave this such a high rating. I mean, Stage Fright was fun, and had some funny moments. But I think this is the movie that turned me off to any relationships in Scooby-Doo ever. They build up the Fred/Daphne relationship throughout only to throw it all away in the end credits. I also didn't find the plot or any of the supporting characters that interesting.
Spooky Scarecrow/Mecha Mutt Menace
We got two new specials in September, Spooky Scarecrow and Mecha Mutt Menace. Spooky Scarecrow was the better of the two, though it's plot wasn't overly original. Mecha Mutt Menace had some good humorous moments, but overall it was a weak episode that barely manged to be slightly above average. The animation was also a bit off.
Scooby-Doo! Team Up
On July 2nd, Scooby-Doo Team Up was announced. A new comic that would feature Scooby & the gang teaming up with Batman and other characters from the DC Universe. Me and Scooby-Doom both gave Team Up #1 a positive review{here and here}. Though I wasn't nearly a big of fan of the second issue.
2014 Predictions
So what's to come in 2014? It is the 45th annaversery of Scooby-Doo after all. I don't think we'll see anything huge out of Warner Bros. But I think we'll get some big announcements. In fact, I'm going to go out and say that not only will we get a release date for the new movie by the end of the year, but we'll hear rumblings of a new series as well. I also think we'll finally get some full seasons of Scrappy-Doo on DVD, plus a blu-ray release of Mystery Incorporated via Warner Archive.
2014 will be big for the site as well, with a new look and {hopefully}more content. I plan on giving the SDMI page a full overhaul and add a full episode guide along with a new DVD page. I would also like to see your thoughts and ideas on what you'd like to see on the site. Also chime in with your 2014 predictions as well!

I was even able to get him out of character for this one…do zombies ever smile?
I made Penny's dress from a lightweight knit fabric so it has a nice drape and some stretch to it. I patterned it after a peasant dress but extended the sleeves into bell sleeves for that perfect witch look. I added a black cord for a witch-y belt and I bought her tights a Jo-Anns for 60% off. PS. they have lots of fun colors!
I found the hat and broomstick at Target for a few bucks a piece, you can't beat such inexpensive finishing touches!
Ellie wanted to be a kitty cat, so sweet! All she wants to do is say "meow, meow" which actually sounds a lot more like "mow, mow" when she says it.
She picked out this kitty (cougar-y?) fleece fabric all by herself, it is so dang soft! And it's nice and thin and a dream to sew with.
I used Simplicity Pattern 1584 to make the dress except I added a small velcro closure on the back and omitted the black fuzzy collar as I figured that would annoy her after awhile.
I have to laugh at my attempt at group shots…4 kids in one frame…it's tough stuff, especially with a 16 month old who has no desire to stand still!
I hope you enjoyed this year's Halloween costumes!
Are you done, getting close, or just buying at the store this year?
Thanks for stopping by today!!!

Remember how I said at the end of the last post that the next first date was over a year in the making? I lied. Another first date snuck in first. First dates are like that; you always have to be on the lookout. And when you are on an epic quest like this, you have to learn to be flexible.
This was a busy week for me, Hitchhikers. It was a travel week. It was also a week with a due date on a huge project for work. It required a lot of writing, and a lot of energy output. I am ready for a nap.
My sixth first date was a setup. That makes it sound like a trap. It wasn't. It was just a blind date with the brother-in-law of the first person I met when I moved to Tampa. He was in from out-of-town for a few days, and looking for adventure and a decent grouper sandwich. Actually, I don't think he was looking for either, but he certainly found both [incidentally, I had nothing to do with the grouper sandwich; he discovered that on his own before we met, but I benefitted].
Because he was from out of town, I wanted to find something unique to the area for our date. I googled around a bit and came across a few places where we could go snorkeling with manatees. I made the suggestion and he pushed back. Not a lot, mind you, he just worried that I might not be comfortable with the activity since I didn't know him at all and suggested we meet the evening before to get some food. Clearly he did not know me at all. I called it even and we made plans for snorkeling the next morning [I can be very convincing when I want to be]. Besides, I figured if things got bad, I could just hand him a set of cement flippers and go along my merry way.
Things didn't get bad; we had a great time. It was a long drive to the river, and a long drive home, but there was never a point where conversation felt uncomfortable or forced, so time passed quickly.
There were about 25 people in our group, split between two boats. The tour company provided wetsuits and snorkels and masks to everyone. We watched a short video full of clear shots of people interacting [gently] underwater with manatees. Apparently they startle easily, and due to their endangered status, people are not allowed to chase, ride, splash around, or touch them [unless the manatee initiates the contact]. Manatees have all the power. They decide whether physical interaction will occur, and how much. I am a lot like a manatee in this way (*ahem*… I'm looking at you, creepy first date).
We found a pod of five manatees pretty quickly and proceeded to climb in the water with them. The water was massively murky, and you really couldn't see more than a foot or two in front of your face. It was far easier to spot them from the deck than it was from in the water, and quite unlike the video presentation.
In order to get the manatees to approach, you pretty much put yourself in a dead man's float and wait. You can use your hands in a modified breaststroke to maneuver around slightly, but the less you move the better. Kicking of feet is highly discouraged. It is effective for manatee viewing, but far less effective for keeping warm when you lack sufficient insulation.
Even with a wetsuit, after about thirty minutes in the water, I started to shiver. A lot. My teeth were chattering, and all my muscles started to hurt from shaking to keep warm. I curled up in a little ball and floated for a few minutes because I still hadn't seen a manatee from in the water, and I really wanted to before I succumbed to hypothermia. Incidentally, the coldest water we encountered that day was 72° F… and I didn't even get in it; I have no idea what temperature the warmer water was.
The manatee pod eventually made its way into a small cove where the water was maybe two feet deep. There were four males and a female… and the males were all trying to get her attention. It was not unlike some deployments I've experienced. I made my way to the front of the group and waited quietly for a manatee to approach.
As I lay floating, shivering, and staring at swirling mud, I started to wonder if I was ever going to see a manatee up close and personal. No sooner had the thought crossed my mind, than I noticed my body drifting up on top of the water's surface. It seemed a metric ton of manatee had decided to try to occupy the same space as me. Try as I might to do otherwise, I could not help but ride the manatee a short distance. His skin felt like fine-grain sandpaper. He eventually moved away without me and I made my way back to the boat. My toes were blue.
We moved into the crystal clear spring waters, but there were no manatees to be found this time of year. Apparently, the month of January is prime manatee viewing season. This year they had over 600 of them (so that's where they get the video footage). It made our five seem a little less impressive. Or maybe a little more impressive because our five weren't snowbirds that were just using Florida for the mild winter.
After we turned in our gear and changed out of our wet clothes, we drove several hours to eat the "best grouper sandwich" my date had ever eaten. He discovered it the day before and was determined to eat one every day he was in town. It was the only grouper sandwich I'd ever eaten, ergo, also the best grouper sandwich I've ever had.
I think I put 300 miles on my car that date; it was a lot of driving. I don't mind driving, but it was a workday, so after that many hours in the car and in the water, I still had to go home and be productive. I might need a midweek rule about mileage I'm willing to travel for a date. And I definitely need a rule about setting an alarm earlier than 0500 for a date.
I further think I ought to open an Adventure Dating company because I plan some fun first dates. If I were a guy, women would be lining up left and right to try to snag a date with me. [Incidentally, my date did ask me if I was sure I wasn't a man at one point during the date. He meant it as a compliment, and I took it as one, though it might be the strangest compliment I've received yet. For the record, yes, I am certain.]
My date said I was the most unique first date he'd ever had, and he is certain the record will never be topped. Maybe for him. As for me: Challenge. Accepted.

Visiting such an extraordinary place like Lake Tahoe means breathing in the freshest air, sitting lakeside in a postcard-like setting, and treating oneself amidst a true summer day (aka a piña colada from Ski Beach Tiki Hut). I can't help but arrive with wonder and anticipation for the inspiration that comes with little retreats like this, and you bet your bottom dollar that I'm fully equipped with cameras in tow to take it all in! Waking up early in the morning or catching the light of sunset reassures me why I absolutely adore this place.
Our week was nothing short of perfect. BBQ-filled, sunshine aplenty, lakeside lays, and glasses of wine on the deck. It was the first week-long trip we've had this year, and it felt incredible to semi-disconnect from work and just breeze through the day and relax. I slept in more than I ever do, wore the coziest casual clothes, and spent time with family. I'm probably the tannest I will be all year – so for that too, I'm happy as a clam!
One evening we drove a few minutes out to this stunning lookout and snapped a few shots before heading closer to the lake. I felt like I was popping right out of a painting – the verdant hills, and lush blue water gives me goosebumps every time. The views, smells, and feelings that rush through you in Tahoe are beyond words. Matt's such a trooper (and so patient) with my constant vision wheels turning in the back of my mind. Always looking to chase golden hour for the perfect shot – he's even picked up some skills himself along the way and captured me drooling over this view. How could you not!
I usually pack pretty lightly when visiting Tahoe and bring my casual best. I reach for simple pieces to mix and match, or easy throw-ons like this black romper from Old Navy and lightweight dresses to wear for daytime exploring to evening dinners by the lake. This romper is so cute and comfy, I've been a repeat offender throwing it on all week long. I love pieces like this where I can easily slip it on and pair it with a simple sandal, a denim button up (just in case it got breezy), and a fun summer bag.
After spending a week up there, I feel so refreshed and inspired – a necessary trip to decompress and take a break from the laptop! A few more photos to come next week, but couldn't wait to share these beautiful views with you. I'd love to know where your happy place is? Where do you go to escape the norm and reboot? Let me know in the comments below and have yourself a wonderful weekend! x
Thank you Old Navy for collaborating on this feature.

EDITOR,—The programme for pharmaceuticals of the World Health Organisation's Regional Office for Europe recently carried out a situation analysis of the pharmaceuticals in Bosnia-Hercegovina. One striking finding was the large amount of unused drugs that originated from donations. This finding is not exclusive to Bosnia-Hercegovina, and urgent action is needed to prevent such situations in countries in transition.
In Bosnia-Hercegovina 70–80% of drugs were reported to have been provided by humanitarian organisations, charities, and groups of …

Thirteen fish banked in one session including 'The Sergeant' out at 39lb 3oz
Daniel Fellows braved the storms and was rewarded with one of his remaining target fish from the Richworth Linear Fisheries Unity syndicate – The Sergeant at 39lb 3oz.
The impressive mirror was the highlight of the 26-year-old Birmingham based rod's 13 fish haul which included seven carp over the 25lb-barrier.
Arriving early on the Saturday morning, and with gale force winds forecast, Daniel headed to a sheltered area of the lake which allowed him to cast tight to an island where he seen fish showing close to an overhanging willow tree.
"I set up all three rods with chod rigs as I wanted to ensure my baits were presented effectively over all the leaves, branches and other debris that was likely to be on the lakebed," he said. "The bank of the island is undercut so I cast within one foot of the island at 100 yards as that's where the fish patrol. Getting the bait out with the throwing stick in the strong winds wasn't easy but I eventually had a kilo of boilies on the spot."
The first night of the trip produced three mirrors and over the next four days he continued to catch two or three fish a day by keeping the swim regularly topped up with 18mm boilies.
"On Thursday, things had gone quiet and the fish had stopped showing. My mate had brought me some more bait down so I set about putting another 2kg out before getting my head down for an afternoon nap. I was woken by a screaming receiver and could see my middle rod wrapped round. I struck into it and the fish started taking line even though I had the clutch set tight. At first I couldn't do anything with the fish and just had to hold on. After 20 minutes or so I started to get the better of it, however, and when I looked down in the net I recognised The Sergeant.
"All my hard work had paid off - getting up early, continuously baiting up and fighting the winds. It was all worth it and I had something to show for it. What a season I have had. Catching Orange Spot at 39lb 12oz and the big common at 44lb 2oz earlier in the year, and now The Sergeant – one of the best looking carp I've ever seen - at 39lb 3oz. I'll certainly never forget 2013!"
