Val Westover and Stephanie Adriana, both authors and photographers, draw from diverse artistic backgrounds. Val once trained hundreds of photographers as the manager of a nationwide portrait studio, and Stephanie has seen her work featured in an array of photography and fashion magazines. Applying fine-tuned artistic styles, they snap candid photojournalistic compositions and posed portraits of new couples, newborns, mothers-to-be, families, and secret families.
They also pass on their skills through step-by-step workshops, during which they use a blend of professional tips and practice exercises to teach the basics of ISO, shutter, and aperture alongside applied artistic principles. They then give protégés free rein to practice what they've learned in hands-on, on-location photo safaris, during which students capture shots of wildlife and people.
Trifecta Design's florists construct elaborate arrangements with blossoms sourced from around the world, earning Best Flower Shop accolades from City Weekly in 2010. Owners Pamela Ostermiller and Lindsay Vieta-Vest draw on their love of fashion, architecture, music, and visual art to stylishly arrange colorful seasonal blooms such as orchids, lemongrass, kiwi, and roses. Finished bouquets reside inside tinted glass cubes and handcrafted wooden boxes chosen to highlight their inventive compositions. The creative establishment also compiles edible gift boxes, which entice gourmands with artisanal breads and cheeses, smoked meats, and local chocolates nestled amid textured wrappings.
The Dezember Photography team snaps vivid, full-color images ranging from shots of wide-eyed toddlers perched on antique chairs and high school seniors showing off their personalities with footballs or football-shaped calculators to action shots that tell a story—to a father tearfully walking his daughter down the aisle or newlyweds sharing a kiss neck deep in the ocean at sunset. They complement their keepsake shots with cutting-edge technology—after their shoots, subjects can showcase their images on the studio's custom smartphone app.
Don Polo Photography owner Adilfa Ford named her business after the grandfather who raised her on a rustic farm in La Luz, Venezuela. The only surviving pictures of her late mother and grandparents were taken by Adilfa herself as she honed her shutter skills and nurtured the seeds of photographic passion into a blossoming love of the visual arts. Accompanied by her husband, Russ Ford, Adilfa travels the globe to teach photography seminars and add to an impressive resume of more than 800 weddings, returning to her Taylorsville studio to snap more portraits of familial love and newlywed bliss. An ample amount of studio and garden space accommodates small and large portrait groups as they have their contagious smiles immortalized, posing in front of vibrant backgrounds or flourishing greenery. After the team of professional flash dispatchers finishes capturing precious moments, they digitally enhance, retouch, and spellcheck each picture's 1,000 words.

"Don't buy a goodman."
Purchased unit in december 2008, by may of 2009 I was hospitalized because the unit was filling the ducting with water, 2011 the switch went out and now it is 2012 and the unit just stopped working, the repairman said the blower is bad. Wow what a company wish I would have found this website before I bought a goodman.
Location: Perry, Georgia
Satisfaction Rating:
The unit is now 4 years old and has gone out. The Evaporator coil is leaking. When installed by our local rep here the unit cut off after 3 months service, the drain line was stopped up which caused it to shutdown. When they removed the cover the coil was rusted and I complained about the excessive rust. They told me they would support it for 10 years. No worries they told me. Well now it has gone bad and they gave charged me $215.00 to come out and check it and want another $625.00 to $800.00 labor but the part is covered by warranty, yea right! I didn't get anywhere calling Goodman so don't waste your time. They are even telling me that they never received my registration for the 10 year warranty. This is almost funny. Since they have so many bad reviews I'm sure they didn't get it, if you know what I mean, do yourself a favor do not have one put in. You will be sorry.

"Goodman Heat Pump"
This is the worst experience I've ever had with an air conditioning system. You better buy the extended service warranty. By now, I bet the service guy is making about $5 a visit considering how many times he's been here to service this crap. Once again, the reversing valve is leaking. It's a nightmare! Why me! I think every part that can be replace has been changed on this system. Oh yes, the compressor was changed out last year...or was it the year before last? I can't keep up with all the a/c repairman visit and part repairs...THE WORST...and don't waste you time trying to call Goodman either...over there in Texas...you won't get past the telephone gate keepers! Never Again! Looks like I'll be getting another new reversing valve tomorrow when they come to repair this system again! This will be number 4?...5??? who knows!

The contractor that built my house and my son's house put Goodman heat pumps in both. At 5 1/2 years I was having to put 5 lbs of freon every two months to keep it cooling. I ended up replacing mine about 2 months ago. My son's started the same problem last night and his will be 5 years next month. It seems the same problem occurs over and over with these heat pumps, the freon leaks, no one can be found that is authorized to work on them or get parts for them. I ended up buying an Armstrong this time and love it so far. Never will I buy another Goodman!

"" No known problems""
This is what the company says: "no known problems". When I informed them that both myself and my neighbor had purchased thier unit and both are causing problems. We have had to change the coil and freon twice in less than 4 years with service cost and high cost of freon being our responsibility. I would never buy anything from the company.

"Very Dissatisfied"
We replaced our old unit with this Goodman unit, and have had nothing but problems. The valves have been leaking, the ac guy kept replacing refrigerant because the valves were not available to him. There was a recall I am told, and he was never informed. I would never purchase one of this Heat Pumps from this company again, as I was given no satisfaction. This unit is not even 2 years old.
Location: Smithfield, North Carolina
Satisfaction Rating:
"Heat pump nightmare"
Both my neighbor and I bought this heat-pump and both went down before the warranty even went out. Both incurred high cost repair bills because the cost of freon is so high and the company does not reimburse for their shortcoming. Not a good product. Would not recommend.

"Goodman DSZC18 Bad Heat Pump"
New system installed 29 July 2011 sw Indiana. Goodman Heat Pump model DSZC18 along with new inside unit. 1st problem was when system was running hard in early January 2012 (less than 6 months). Compressor Rotor Lockup. Called for service could not determine cause and reset heat pump controller. Compressor Rotor lockup two days later. While serviceman was checking system again he touched the 220V leads on the controller board and about got shocked. He called regional distributor and they said "Oh yeah, we have had some problems with bad controller boards." Cold solder joint. Replaced board. Compressor Rotor lockup a few days later, serviceman replaced expansion valve and another part and charged system with coolant. I had to pay a $70 service call total (should have been picked up by Goodman). System ran fine until mid May when weather got unusually hot then Compressor rotor lockup again. Reset unit by cycling circuit breaker. System ran fine for 5 days and locked up again. Cycled circuit breaker system locked up a few days later. Serviceman started trying to diagnose the problem, Goodman wanted to blame power to house/unit. Service man finally put on a generic hard start kit but unit continued to lockup almost daily into and through June. Toward end of June 2012, unit was locking up multiple times a day. Regional service tech for Goodman came to house with serviceman and tried many things and took multiple voltage and current readings (I had also been documenting time of day and outside temp when units were locking up). Goodman wanted to blame grounding for power. I checked all of the ground connections and did not find a problem. They had indicated that they would replace the unit but instead serviceman had to drive out of town to pickup a factory hard start kit (Goodman could not be bothered to UPS it). Unit is running better but has locked up twice since the factory hard start kit was installed. I have let the serviceman and the Goodman tech both know this but have heard nothing back. It will be interesting to see how the unit performs the rest of the summer. The hard start kit is nothing but a band aid on this system. The Goodman tech indicated that he was not seeing this problem with the same model on other installations and he covers a large area of Southern Indiana, parts of Ohio and a good portion of Kentucky. Goodman does not stand behind their equipment. I would never install another Goodman system(or any other brand they are affiliated with) or recommend one. Amana trademark is owned by Maytag Worldwide, but is licensed and distributed by Goodman. Goodman Manufacturing is privately owned and headquartered in Houston, TX (USA). Goodman also owns the Goodman, Janitrol and GmC brands of heating and cooling equipment.

"Warranty stipulations are stupid"
Installed last of 2010. Emptied Freon the first part of 2011 due to copper lines chaffing. Paid repairman $50 for Freon because no parts replaced. Goodman said they would pay $100 for Freon if parts were replaced. Do they not realize and empty system is an empty system no matter how it gets out. Monday it died again. House fan motor this time. None on the East coast. Houston, tx suppose to got some Friday. By the time we get it, and get it installed, the heat pump will have been down 11 or 12 days in some 100+ degree days. Avoid this company

Goodman is the worst heat pump I have ever owned, and I have owned many through the years. After 2 years of operation the compressor went out, with a cost of $500.00 for labor and the warranty according to Shelby Chilton Heating and Air on its last leg, so $500.00 labor only, Goodman did supply the compressor and some other parts not installed originally or so they(Shelby Chilton) said. Since then I have spent thousands of dollars on numerous heating and air companies trying to find and repair a problem without success, finally one found a leak in the indoor coil unit and advised me they could try and repair it with no guaranty the repair would last through the season, then told me this was a common problem with Goodman because of their manufacturing practices. Since the Government is forcing a change in types of Freon again, Freon has gone through the roof price wise, the last time I had Freon installed, three and a half pounds cost $250.00, roughly $72.00 a pound which makes having Freon installed two to three times a year cost prohibitive. Long story short I could have purchased a new unit for the costs involved in attempted repairs many times over. After checking with numerous companies, I have been told by all of these companies that Goodman has substandard manufacturing practices and they love them for the repairs they generate. I am purchasing a new unit and the Goodman will be put where it belonged when it was new, in the scrap yard! The bottom line here based on my experience with heat pumps in general, no one on earth should ever, ever, ever, ever, ever; purchase a Goodman product unless you just enjoy wasting time and money.

If you start saving early in life, you'll have an advantage over those who start later. That's because when you put away even small amounts early, a very important financial concept is working for you: compounding interest.
When you put money away in savings or investments, the initial amount you save or invest is the principal. The principal earns interest, which then is added to the original principal. This amount (principal + interest) again earns interest, and so on. This process is called "compounding," and its effect is like magic when you let it work for you over time.
Here is a dramatic example of why it pays to start saving and investing early.
Alletta starts investing $1,000 a year at the age of 22 in a tax-deferred Individual Retirement Account (IRA). Tax-deferred means the earnings and the principal aren't taxed until the money is withdrawn, usually years later. Alletta stops putting money in the IRA after 10 years, at age 32, but leaves her money so it will grow through compounding until she reaches retirement age.
Her twin brother, Cory, doesn't start investing $1,000 until age 30. But once he starts, he invests $1,000 in his IRA every year for 35 years, until he reaches retirement age at 65. Alletta and Cory both earn 9 percent annually on their IRAs. Who has the most money accumulated in their IRA for retirement at age 65? Look at the chart below—you may be surprised!

They rode busses from Burlington, North Carolina, with confirmation in hand for a tour inside 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
But the fifth-grade students from Eastlawn Elementary only made it as far as the park outside of the White House gates.
Just before their trip to Washington, officials at the school learned their tour was canceled due to the automatic spending cuts, known as "sequestration."
"I'm ticked off," student Jakiah Sellers said. She speculated that the tour was canceled because "Obama doesn't want anybody to see his beautiful house."
The bruised feelings should come as no surprise. It was a struggle for many of the students to afford the $300 trip. Fundraisers were held. Some parents made monthly payments to cover the cost.
"That was the highlight of our trip for our students. And it's a once in a lifetime opportunity that some of us may not get again," Eastlawn Elementary teacher Stacy Stallings said.
Two weeks after the automatic spending cuts kicked in, Americans are only beginning to feel the effects of reductions that are slowly impacting countless federal programs.
A highly visible reminder of the potential for disruptions, the White House tours were canceled by administration officials who say they had to choose: either dock the pay of U.S. Secret Service agents through furloughs or scrap the visits.
"This is a very unfortunate circumstance that is a result of the sequester," White House Press Secretary Jay Carney told reporters on Thursday.
Peppered with questions about the shuttered tours for more than a week, White House officials have pointed to other important programs affected by the cuts, from small airports where air traffic control towers will be closed to Head Start classrooms where thousands of teachers will be laid off.

Blackburn Rovers fight off QPR's late Murphy bid
10:05am Monday 25th June 2012 in Football By Andy Cryer , Blackburn Rovers reporter
BLACKBURN Rovers fought off a last ditch hijack attempt from Premier League QPR to seal the signing of Danny Murphy at the weekend.
The Lancashire Telegraph understands Rangers upped their offer to the former England international at the 11th hour – but Rovers returned with counter terms to secure Murphy's services for the Championship campaign.
Murphy had already turned down offers from QPR and Premier League new boys West Ham United to travel to East Lancashire for talks and a medical on Friday.
And, when QPR's Malaysian chairman Tony Fernandes sanctioned a last minute second offer to the 35-year-old, his fellow countryman and Rovers new supremo Shebby Singh responded in kind to complete the deal.
It is understood the 35-year-old midfielder put pen to paper on a pre contract deal on Saturday evening, having agreed a two-year contract. It is expected to be confirmed by Rovers today.
Rovers are also chasing Newcastle United duo Leon Best and Dan Gosling – although reports from Australia claiming Harry Kewell, 33, is close to a move to Ewood are understood to be wide of the mark.
The former Leeds and Liverpool midfielder is expected at Brockhall for 'tests' today, after quitting Melbourne Victory and returning to England for family reasons, but the Lancashire Telegraph understands any move to Rovers is highly unlikely.
The Lancashire Telegraph also understands Rovers will hold further talks with Newcastle United striker Leon Best later this week, after having a bid in the region of £3million accepted.
The 25-year-old former Southampton and Coventry man is currently mulling over his future having been told by the Magpies he is way down their striking pecking order.
Newcastle boss Alan Pardew is also believed to have given former Everton midfielder Dan Gosling permission to speak to Rovers about a potential loan deal.
Murphy's capture is the first sign that Rovers owners Venky's are finally prepared to provide a 'decent' budget, with a lucrative package also understood to be on offer to Best.
Rovers have several other targets on their radar, in both midfield and up front, as they look to strengthen their squad to push for an instant Premier League return.
The club are hopeful former defender Colin Hendry will join the coaching staff this week, while further appointments could be made.
Meanwhile it is understood Rovers director Vineeth Rao, a close friend to owners Venky's, will take a backward step in terms of influence at the club.
It is also believed youth charity 'The Prince's Trust' will continue to have their name splashed on the front of the shirts next season.

On Friday, May 4 the Mexican Consulate with the help of researcher and historian Silas Griffin will commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Puebla, Mexico and as part of the Arizona Statehood Centennial celebrations, a special ceremony will be held for Captain Lugardo G. Lozano, veteran of the Battle of Puebla who is buried here.
According to Griffin's research, which started in 1999, Capt. Lozano was a 35-year career army Veteran who was born in La Union, Jalisco, Mexico on February 19, 1847 and he died in Douglas on May 31, 1922, after residing here for five years.
Griffin found Lozano's obituary when he was looking for Confederate Veterans' obituaries in The Daily Dispatch's microfilms. The obituary, which appeared June 1, 1922 said "Capt. Lugardo G. Lozano, a veteran of the battle of Cinco de Mayo, who served under Benito Juarez, died late last night at his home, 1027 12th St. at the age of 75 years."
It is believed by Griffin that Lozano came to live here because of his age and decided to come live with his son, Rosendo Lozano, who was an electrician at the Calumet and Arizona smelter.
"I think he came here because his son was living here working and has bought a house, and I got the copies of the property from Bisbee," Griffin said. "Rosendo (son) buys the house, his parents come to live with him, and then the old man dies, Rosendo sells the house to his sister Refugio, who sells it a year after, around 1925; apparently there are no more records of the family around the area from that moment."
In 2005, Griffin conducted a ceremony to dedicate a headstone and place it at Lozano's grave. Now, this year the Mexican Consulate will conduct the ceremony to honor Lozano's memory for his service in the battle that Mexican army raised the victory upon the French.

19th EU-ASEAN Ministerial Meeting on Arab Spring and Human Rights
Check against delivery
19th EU-ASEAN Ministerial Meeting
Bandar Seri Begawan/ Brunei Darussalam, 26 April 2012
Statement by H.E. Mr. Wolfgang Waldner, State Secretary for European and International Affairs of Austria, on Arab Spring and Human Rights
Mr. Chairman,
Dear Cathy,
Dear colleagues,
At the outset, let me take this opportunity to thank the Sultanate of Brunei for hosting this 19th ASEAN-EU Ministerial.
The Middle East has long been occupying a prominent place on the global political agenda, equally affecting European and Asian security interests. Today, I would like to make five points focussing on the interplay between the so-called Arab Spring and human rights that apply well beyond the Arab region.
- Since early 2011, the uprising in the Arab world has brought about a dramatic change in the political landscape. Protesters taking to the streets of Tunis, Cairo or Tripoli were claiming a life in freedom and dignity and demanding full respect of their rights. They continue to do so rightfully in Syria and other places in the region. People are looking for new ways of political participation. It is our common responsibility to make sure that these legitimate demands are fulfilled.
- Despite the progress achieved in the transformation process the human rights situation remains volatile. We must use this opportunity to work with our Arab partners towards full respect of human rights on all levels in the future.
- There can be no successful political transition without an inclusive approach encompassing all components of society, regardless of race, gender or religion. Women and youth have been acting at the forefront of the protest movement. While the transition is still in process, women see themselves more and more being left out. Women must be part of the political decision-making process. They must be granted equal rights and full access to education, justice, health and other sectors of society.
- We are concerned about the rising violence against religious minorities. We therefore must work together with the new authorities in order to effectively protect their rights and prevent that they emerge even weaker from the transition than they were before.
- In order to guarantee freedom, dignity and stability for the people in the Arab world, the new authorities have to abide by the rule of law.
- Austria regards the rule of law as the overarching principle of democracy and supports all countries in transition in their efforts to build sustainable democratic institutions.
Thank you.

Compatriot is not only a company, but an organization that is devoted to snowboarders, skateboarders, outdoorsmen, and artists. Those who ride our boards are unique. They are creators. They are devoted riders who believe that snowboarding is an enigmatic expression of soulful struggle and elegant aggression.
This organization is based on its people. We are not a company that is interested in capitalizing on the recent exploitation that snowboarding has received through the media. Snowboarding is not a fashion show. That's why we build our boards by hand in the USA. That's why we make it a priority to help other organizations. We donate portions of the sales of every board to goodwill organizations that deal with crucial matters such as avalanche education and safety, breast cancer research, homelessness and hunger, and freshwater trout preservation. The word compatriot means friend, companionship, and a valiant loyalty to the cause. We Are Compatriot.
Compatriot Snowboards began operations in 2002

We encourage you to join in making an effort to give back to your community, culture, and your world.

Sir Henry Raeburn
Scottish, 1756–1823
Portrait of a Lady, c. 1815
oil on canvas
76.5 x 63.7 cm
Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery; Gift of Dr. Harold and Peg Mitchell
At the height of his artistic career, Henry Raeburn was the first Scottish artist to achieve an international reputation, his closest rival being Allan Ramsay. From his humble background as an orphan at George Heriot's Hospital in Edinburgh, Raeburn eventually secured his place as one of the most sought-after portrait painters in Scotland. Between 1798 and 1810, Raeburn exhibited regularly at the Royal Academy in London. In 1812 he was elected President of the Society of Artists in Scotland and was knighted by George IV (1762–1830) in 1822. In this Portrait of a Lady, Raeburn's prowess as a gifted portraitist is confirmed, particularly in his ability to capture the personality or essence of the subject. The use of light and shadow, highlighting rich fabrics and textures, conveys a warmth and immediacy to the picture.

Nice But Run Small
By All About Comfort
from Pennsylvania
About Me Conservative
I always have a hard time with socks that are too long. I have small, wide feet. I thought a medium would be perfect but they are tight and hard to pull up. I'll just wear them as compresion socks when I know I'll be on my feet all day to keep the swelling down. The quality looks good and hope they stretch a little in the wash. I just won't put them in the dryer.

wool stretch knee high socks
By Irishyankee811
from New Hampshire
Purchased in the hope they would keep my feet warm as they are wool, but they are very lightweight and not any better than synethetic or heavier cotton knee highs.

A supurb product!!!!
By Susan
from NY
I have been looking for women's socks that don't ride down the calf or bunch up under the foot causing discomfort. Woolrich has them in this product. I was so pleased with the first 2 pair, that I ordered another 3 pair.
By Buyer
from Santa Monica CA
Disappointed - I ordered a medium for my 7.5 shoe size foot. It's a very tight fit both on sole and in calf circumference. [*] I'm hoping they will stretch, but I advise ordering a size up and if you have a big feet, forget it.
Comfortable socks
By PatMillDE
from Middletown, DE
I needed a lightweight wool sock for these cool nights and sometimes warm days. These socks are comfortable all day and do not bind at the knee as some knee-hi socks do. I would like the toe material to be a bit thicker, though.

O Terco (1972) (plus bonus tracks)
CD (Item 457728) Continental/Discos Mariposa (Argentina), 1972 — Condition: New Copy
The second album from O Terco – the guitar-heavy power trio who were one of the hardest things going in Brazil during the early 70s! The album's got a style that's somewhat progressive, but which also still holds onto plenty of late 60s psychedelic elements – qualities both sweet and dark, often compressed into the arrangements with an approach that's a bit like some of the more underground South American rock of the time. Side one of the album features 5 shorter tracks – "Deus", "Voce Al", "Estrada Vazia", "Lagoa Das Lontras", and "Rock Do Elvis" – and the second side features the 19 minute suite"Amanheger Total" – a soaring, building number with lots of changes throughout! CD features 2 bonus tracks – "Tributo Ao Sorriso" and "Adormeceu". © 1996-2013, Dusty Groove, Inc. |

Members of the International Standards Organization a 66-year-old body with 162 member nations, tackling everything from bank transactions to shoe sizes are forming a new committee to develop standards for e-discovery processes.
The standards, if passed, would define procedures for technology companies, discovery providers, and their clients to follow when handling digital data. "This international standard provides guidance on measures, spanning from initial creation of [electronically stored information] through its final disposition, which an organization can undertake to mitigate risk and expense should electronic discovery become an issue," a draft of the committee charter states.
If products and services are certified as ISO-compliant, then a party and their counsel could more easily decide what to purchase, and judges could be sure that electronic data discovery follows uniform methods, explained Hitachi Data Systems' Eric Hibbard, who is co-editor of the project and serves as international representative on a U.S. contingent to the organization.
The proposed e-discovery committee is part of ISO's cybersecurity unit. That's because the unit already standardized aspects of digital forensics such as identification, collection, and preservation of electronic evidence, so it has experience in working in legal topics, Hibbard said. Discovery didn't fit into any other ISO groups, he added.
"We're not trying to impose requirements on lawyers or judges. That's not the intention of the activity. It's really intended to help them sort through some of the technology issues that are really nebulous," Hibbard said.
In addition to describing how discovery services and software should operate, the standard would refer to product auditing aspects. It would cite the long-standing ISO 9001 quality control procedures, used by more than 1 million businesses worldwide, according to a recent survey. E-discovery companies could then achieve certification and advertise their products as ISO 9001-compliant. The standard would also relate to the existing ISO forensics work, Hibbard said.
There are 37 corporate members of Hibbard's cybersecurity committee, including Booz Allen & Hamilton Inc., EMC Corp., Hewlett-Packard Co., Microsoft Corp., and Symantec Corp., all with significant presence in e-discovery. Because the committee was not originally formed to cover EDD, the member companies may need to modify their representation to account for its expanded focus. HP and Symantec have the largest EDD involvement, with their ownership of Autonomy and Clearwell Systems, respectively.
Several e-discovery experts polled by Law Technology News said they support Hibbard's premise, while exhibiting some hesitancy of the unknown.
Tom Barnett, e-discovery practice leader at corporate investigation company Stroz Friedberg, supports the proposed committee. "I think it'll be good for the industry to be able to separate the people who are really serious about process and quality control from the people who aren't," he said. "E-discovery has become a multibillion-dollar industry. But in some ways it still operates as as a startup industry, and standards like these have not been implemented," said Barnett, who is based in Los Angeles. "It's allowed for a wide variety of quality standards or no standards sometimes."
"E-discovery is not a legal process. It's a technical and engineering problem. You need a standard," Barnett continued. "Because it really is a relatively new industry, a lot of people do things their own way."
Jackson Lewis partner Ralph Losey, of Orlando, Fla., also supports the concept. "I'm all in favor of these quality control standards as things that should be followed by vendors. ... ISO is something that can be imposed on vendors to help make sure we're getting the same thing," he said.

The VH1 biopic of platinum-selling girl group TLC is taking shape.
Rapper and VMA stage crasher Lil Mama, Keke Palmer and actress-singer Drew Sidora ("The Game") are set to portray the groundbreaking R&B/hip-hop/pop trio known for its brazen anthems and fiery interpersonal drama.
"I would sing 'No Scrubs' over and over again to the point my parents would have to tell me to stop, but I never did, I had my little hairbrush as my mic and nobody could tell me I wasn't the fourth member of TLC," Palmer said in a statement announcing her casting.
Lil Mama, the rambunctious voice behind "Lip Gloss" and judge of MTV's "America's Best Dance Crew," will take on the role of Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, who died in a car crash in Honduras in 2002. Palmer ("Akeela & the Bee") is tapped to portray Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas, and Sidora will play Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins.
Thomas and Watkins also announced a musical comeback that would include their first original material since their 2002 album "3D," which was released six months after Lopes' death. The surviving members are expected to cut new music for a soundtrack to the VH1 film. Earlier last year, it was also announced that the group was considering a North American tour that would incorporate video projections of Lopes.
TLC has sold more than 65 million records worldwide. No word on what label will issue the upcoming disc or a projected release date.
VH1 announced plans of the biopic, titled "Crazy, Sexy, Cool: The TLC Story," late last year.
The film, the first in a series of music biopics the network is producing, will be executive-produced by Watkins and Thomas. Kate Lanier, who penned the scripts for "What's Love Got to Do With It," "Beauty Shop" and "Set It Off," wrote the screenplay.
Lanier will have a lot of ground to cover. While the trio's rise in the early '90s was marked by multi-platinum albums and smash hits such as "Waterfalls," "Creep" and "No Scrubs," the Atlanta-based trio was rife with controversy.
Among other things, the trio went bankrupt after their breakout album, "Crazy, Sexy, Cool"; Lopes torched her boyfriend's mansion; and at one point, the girls just couldn't get along (Lopes once challenged her bandmates to solo discs with a $1.5-million prize for the best project).
"Crazy, Sexy, Cool: The TLC Story" will begin shooting in Atlanta in March. Charles Stone III ("Deadline") will direct.

OP-ED: Snake Handling is Too Dangerous
Dear Editor
When I read the story about the preacher who was killed handling snakes, just like his father - I got so upset I put out my cigarette, spit out my Jack Daniels and had to scream! I wish the WV Legislature would do their job and ban Snake Handling like other states have done. There is no cause for anyone in this day and age to risk their lives - for something like faith!

The International Diabetes Federation is proud to release the 5th edition of the IDF Diabetes Atlas, once again showing that diabetes is a global epidemic. The Atlas is the authoritative source of evidence on the burden of diabetes for health professionals, scientists, economists, policy-makers, and national and international agencies.
The evidence presented in previous editions of the IDF Diabetes Atlas has been used widely by news media, governments, and international organisations such as the World Bank, the World Health Organization, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, and the World Economic Forum. Estimates from the 4th edition were instrumental in providing the evidence to drive the unanimous adoption of the resolution for the September 2011 UN High-level Meeting on Non-communicable Diseases. This summit will ensure that non-communicable diseases such as diabetes will no longer simply be a footnote on the global health agenda.
In this edition of the IDF Diabetes Atlas, the estimated number of adults living with diabetes has soared to 366 million, representing 8.3% of the global adult population. This number is projected to increase to 552 million people by 2030, or 9.9% of adults, which equates to approximately three more people with diabetes every 10 seconds. These estimates are considerably higher than those reported in the 4th edition, largely due to new data available from China, the Middle East, and Africa.
The estimates confirm that diabetes continues to disproportionately affect the socially disadvantaged, and is increasing especially rapidly in low- and middle-income countries. The main drivers of the epidemic are economic development and urbanisation, which bring changes in lifestyle, and increasing life expectancy. The health systems in many of these countries are not currently equipped to meet the rising demand of diabetes and non-communicable diseases.
Despite these seemingly overwhelming statistics, we have solutions to meet the challenges of diabetes. IDF brought together a panel of experts to develop a global plan for diabetes using evidence-based strategies. Countries will be able to use this plan to develop their health systems and policies to curb the epidemic and improve the lives of those affected by diabetes. Countries have demonstrated their political will to raise the priority of non-communicable diseases through the UN High-level Meeting. We now expect governments, international agencies, and industry to move from rhetoric to action by following through on this commitment and work together to provide the resources to make this plan a reality.
Information is a powerful tool. On behalf of IDF, I would like to express my profound gratitude to the people who contributed their time and their expertise to this edition, and to the sponsors for their generous support.
We need to work together to ensure the commitments made at the UN High-level Meeting in 2011 are turned into actions, not just for the millions who have diabetes today, but for the millions yet to come. People with diabetes and their families deserve a better future.
Jean Claude Mbanya
President, International Diabetes Federation

The Middlesborough-Bell County Public Library's "52 Weeks of Giving" has been selected as the only finalist from Kentucky in Tom's of Maine "50 states for Good" program. As a finalist the library program is in line to win $50,000 or one five $20,000 prizes.
If selected as one of the winner, the library will use the money to purchase a much needed van that would enable them to expand the program's service area by allowing them to transport the young volunteers as they perform "one act of kindness" a week throughout the community.
The winner will be selected through a public vote at www.Facebook.comlTomsofMaine now through Oct. 9.
"With a simple click of a mouse local residents can help support this program and bring the funding to Middlesboro," said Bell County Librarian Beverly Greene. "We ask everyone to vote for 52 Weeks of Giving … and since you can cast one vote a day, we ask that you remember us each day when you get on Facebook."
The "50 states for Good" program seeks to uncover local nonprofit groups that address urgent community needs and engage volunteers to get the work done."52 Weeks of Giving," a group of 20 youngsters meeting at Middlesborough Library each Friday for the past two years to perform a weekly act of kindness, has performed over 250 volunteer hours.
"Our first year the kids logged 117 volunteer hours. The second year they put in 136 volunteer hours in Middlesboro," said Children's Librarian Cindy Wyatt who co-directs the program with Bookmobile Librarian Libby Edwardson.
52 Weeks of Giving strives to show children that even when you live somewhere small you can do something big and that each of act of kindness creates a ripple effect and touches the lives of so many. Over the course of the two years the group has raised money for childhood cancer, orphans in Uganda and Tsunami victims in Japan. They have donated items to the Cooperative Christian Ministry, Lighthouse Mission, Smokey Mountain Children's Home and flood victims in Middlesboro. The young volunteers have raked leaves for and had lunch with elderly residents. They have reached out to families who have lost a loved one, sent letters of encouragement to families of fallen Navy Seals and taken cookies to local residents who have to work on Christmas Eve.
"Winning this money would show our kids in a tangible way that people believe in them. It would send the message that when they came on their birthdays, when they came on school breaks, when they came on Christmas Eve … people were paying attention and grateful for their dedication," said Edwardson
"These kids have shown up every week for two years now and we are so proud to be heading into our third year with this wonderful program and these amazing local children." added Wyatt.
Non-profits from each state were selected by an independent panel of judges, featuring actor and environmentalist Ian Somerhalder, Laura Burge of the social action network carez.corn, philanthropic leader and Huffington Post columnist Lisa M. Dietlin and Sam Davidson, president of Cool people Care. The public vote will determine six winning organizations to share $150,000 in funding. The organization with the most public support will receive $50,000 in sponsorship funding, while five additional organizations will each receive $20,000.
"We are thrilled to shine a spotlight on our '50 states for Good' finalists and their meaningful work," said Susan Dewhirst, goodness programs manager at Tom's of Maine. "We can't wait to see the lasting impact of healthy, human and environmental goodness that will come from funding our winning organizations' projects."
Tom's of Maine, a leading natural products company focused on oral and personal care, is a longtime supporter of community involvement programs including clean waterways and greater access to affordable dental care, among many other programs. In addition, since its inception, the company has donated 10 percent of its profits back to the community.

It's 6am, I've just woken up for the day and boy am I tired. This whole working for yourself thing, is not the easiest. I mean don't get me wrong I'm excited about the new journey that I've chosen to embark on, but it is definitely going to take some getting used to. It's going to take some really hard discipline to create a schedule and stick to it. It's going to take even harder discipline to believe in myself and jump in head first, rather than letting daily distractions and other people's "thoughts" get in my way.
O that's right, I've started at the end of my story. Well, let's Quentin Tarantino this and go back to the beginning.
It's 2007 and I've just joined Facebook nearly two years after most of my friends. I had a MySpace page and refused to convert to this "Facebook" everyone spoke of. But I was tired of missing all the photos everyone posted so I gave in to peer pressure and signed up.
Fast-forward to 2010 and I've moved from Baltimore to New York City, which was quickly becoming the next big social media hub. I was privileged to receive a job at a social engagement platform, after applying from a job board on my #1 news and all things social site, Mashable. I guess this is the turning point in my made for TV movie, where my love affair with social media really started.
I was instantly immersed in all things social and soon became a bit of a Twitter addict. This new world was opened up to me. Previous to this position, I didn't really get social media as I was so busy and I would say, "Who has time for that?" But once I started using social on a regular basis, I realized it actually saves me time. I get my news, updates, weekly happenings, discounts, deals, all from social. What I actually love the most is the way I can connect with brands on social. I'm a big advocate of "positive reinforcement." This mentality isn't just for dog training. It's important character building for people too. If someone does something great, let him or her know. So if I eat something delicious at a restaurant, I want to let them know in a public forum; or if I buy a new shampoo and I love it, I want to let the brand know, as well as people maybe interested in the shampoo.
These days, reviews aren't just for eBay items – they are for everything from wedding planners to restaurants to Fortune 500 brands. What's also important is developing a connection with these brands. Let's say I bought something from brand X that let me down. Well if I let them know and they make a make-good, it encourages me to try it again; or if I follow brand X on social and know they care about their customers, despite one product not leading up to the reputation, I might give it another shot just because of that relationship I have formed with them.
Another thing about social is it is instant. You get real time feedback and responses – no waiting on hold listening to elevator music. I can't tell you how much time and frustration that has saved me.
Fast-forward to summer 2012 and my love affair with social media has come to full bloom. One night while sitting on my deck with friends we were discussing trivia venues in the city. I posted on Twitter, "Anyone know any good trivia bars in #nyc?" Unfortunately, not a single venue responded and that was where my idea was formed. It was clear that someone needed to connect bars with the people reaching out to them on social media. Managers are busy running their bars and taking care of customers, and social media ends up falling to the lowest priority on their list. However, there are thousands of potential customers, like my friends and I, out there searching for that night's activity.
For the next few months I spoke to friends, family, business associates and really ironed out details of doing social media consulting. I read books on how to start a business, how to incorporate, what liability means, and more. Many of which I still have to figure out and will be detailing them on this blog, as I have yet to find a book that clearly breaks down the easiest way to launch a small business and explains all the terminology that us non-business people do not get.
We land on New Years Eve and I find myself faced with the question of where do I want to be going into 2013? My mentor at the company worked for made several life changing decisions at the same age that I currently am. She took inventory of where she was and where she wanted to be, and made extreme changes to end up in the where she wanted to be category. Well that mentor, she is Founder and CEO of the company – I guess you can say it paid off. I therefore decided to follow her inspiration and make the leap. I would start 2013 with full ambition to start my own company. I therefore, made one of the hardest decisions I have had to make so far in life and go all in. On New Years Eve 2012 I quit my job and on January 1, 2013, Social Media on Tap was formed.

Opening discussion of the August 8, 1938 First Person Singular show, which is usually simply described as "Three Stories," those three being Sherwood Anderson's "I'm a Fool," Saki's "The Open Window," and Carl Ewald's "My Little Boy."
Welles would resurrect two of the three in his series for Lady Esther, "I'm a Fool" being performed on the Sept 29, 1941 episode, and "My Little Boy" on the January 19, 1942 episode. Welles claimed that "My Little Boy" was the most popular thing the Mercury did on air, which is sort of surprising, but then again, maybe not.
I think the second performance of "I'm a Fool" is better than this one, which starts off with Welles acting the part too sleepily; the later performance is more jittery and amusing, though Welles still isn't really right for the role, at least to my ears. I'm not a huge fan of the piece in general, but it's okay.
"The Open Window" sort of lost my interest, but I need to give it another listen. Welles had a fondness for the tale with the twist or blackly comic ending, certainly, and Saki was right up his alley.
"My Little Boy" is what it is, a sentimental tale of being a parent and seeing your child grow up. It isn't a maudlin as it could be certainly, and does what it aims to do well. I like the performance of the child in the Lady Esther version a little better I think.

Hyperglycemic hemichorea/hemiballismus is a recognized entity, seen most often in older patients, women more often than men, Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), presenting with a blood glucose > 400 mg/dl - and usually without ketosis. It has been reported more often in Asian women. This may be the patient's first presentation with DM. The "classic" MR findings include unilateral or bilateral signal changes in the basal ganglia (putamen >> caudate) on MR and CT. Most characteristic is T1 hyperintensity in the putamen; and, corresponding T2 hypointensity. CT scans may show hyperattenuation in the putamen. In most patients, both the clinical and the imaging findings are reversible with control of blood sugar. REFS for hyperintense basal ganglia - - LINK - [PubMed] Possible explanations for the imaging features (hyperattenuation on CT, Dark Bright T1, Dark T2) include blood-brain-barrier breakdown (BBB), deposition of calcium and mineralization, microhemorrhages, myelin destruction, and manganese associated with reactive astrogliosis. Some of these would be acute (contrast and hemorrhage), and others more likely to be subacute or chronic (mineralization and astrogliosis).

His chorea rapidly resolved after restitution of a normal serum glucose level, although an MR image obtained at the time of acute symptoms demonstrated high signal intensity on T1-weighted images, low signal intensity on T2-weighted images, and restricted diffusion, all involving the left putamen.

Chorea-ballismus with nonketotic hyperglycemia in primary diabetes mellitus. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol. 1996 Jun-Jul;17(6):1057-64. Abstract PURPOSE: To describe the neuroimaging (Ct, MR, and single-photon emission CT [SPECT]) findings in a series of patients with chorea-ballismus associated with nonketotic hyperglycemia in primary diabetes mellitus and to correlate the imaging findings with the clinical presentation. METHODS: The neuroimaging and clinical data from 10 patients with chorea-ballismus associated with nonketotic hyperglycemia in primary diabetes mellitus were evaluated. Family and drug histories, as well as other causes of chorea, were excluded. All 10 patients had CT, 5 also had MR imaging, and 3 had SPECT examinations. Three had follow-up CT and MR imaging studies, and MR findings were correlated with CT findings in 5 cases. Two experienced neuroradiologists, aware of the diagnosis but blinded to the clinical status of the patients, evaluated all images and reached a consensus as to the final interpretation. RESULTS: CT studies in 9 of 10 patients showed a hyperdense putamen and/or caudate nucleus; in 1, the CT findings were normal. T1-weighted MR images in all 5 patients who had MR imaging (including the patient with a normal CT study) showed hyperintense lesions without significant T2 signal alternation at the basal ganglia. In all 3 of the patients who had SPECT studies of the brain, the scans revealed hypoperfusion at corresponding areas. All 3 follow-up studies depicted resolution of the lesions in the abnormal basal ganglia. Increased hypointensity on T2-weighted and gradient-echo T2*-weighted images was also observed in the sequential MR images. In all patients, the initial side of involvement correlated well with the neuroimaging findings. The chorea resolved within 2 days after treatment of the hyperglycemia in 9 patients. CONCLUSION: In patients with chorea-ballismus associated with nonketotic hyperglycemia in primary diabetes mellitus, CT and T1-weighted MR images show unilateral or bilateral lesions of the putamen and/or caudate. SPECT scans show hypoperfusion. These findings may be related to petechial hemorrhage and/or myelin destruction. Early recognition of these imaging characteristics may facilitate diagnosis of primary diabetes mellitus with hyperglycemia and prompt appropriate therapy. [PubMed]

HEAD announced that the company has signed an agreement with badminton Olympic bronze medalist Zhou Mi of Hong Kong. The partnership begins immediately and will continue through March 2009.
Mi is already enjoying success after returning from a year-long injury. In addition to winning her first tournament played since returning to badminton, the former World No. 1 captured the women's singles title at the 2007 KLRC New Zealand Open, after an important semifinal win against World No. 7 Pi Hongyan.
"After the Olympics I had a big break with injury .I'm so happy to win, it will help me fight my way back up the rankings," Mi said.
Besides her success at the Olympic Games in 2004 and the Badminton World Championships in 2003, Mi has achieved victory at most of the famous badminton tournaments, including the 2003 All England Open, the 2003 Malaysian Open and the 2003 China Open.
Mi began her career playing for the Chinese National team and switched to Hong Kong in April 2007.
