Abigail loves superheroes! Last year after her birthday, she said she wanted to have cotton candy birthday party, so this momma started planning for that. However, around Christmas, she changed her mind and wanted a superhero party. She loves being a superhero so much that when she says her bedtime prayers she thanks God for making her a superhero.
Super cute invitation that I found on Etsy.

(Love my new cupcake stand that Danny made!!!)
Close up picture of the cupcakes.
Every child went home with their own superhero cape and eye mask that were handmade by me.
We have never had a bounce house for a birthday party but decided we needed one this year and it was the best last minute decision we made! All the kids loved it.
After all the kids left the adults got in and had some fun.
Some of the kids in the bounce house.
and others swinging and playing in the playhouse.
time to sing Happy Birthday.
our little superhero.
and HUGE superhero piñata came with the bounce house.
The kids had so much hitting the piñata.
my nieces both came in superman shirts – unplanned but so cute.
Time for opening presents.
The first present Abigail opened was her Jack and the Neverland Pirates sword. She was so excited about this present because she loves being a pirate too.
She got so many cute presents.
Abigail had a great Superhero Birthday party!
Thank you to all our friends and family that were able to come celebrate with us. We are so blessed to have all of you in our lives.

Slip and fall cases are hard to prove because there are multiple legitimate defenses. For instance, if an accident occurs due to a hazardous but temporary condition, the property owner may argue that the spill occurred soon enough before the incident and, therefore, it was unpreventable. If a slip and fall attorney with Nettleslawfirm.com can prove that the victim was partly responsible for the injuries, the claim may be reduced or denied.
What Should a Property Owner do when Someone Falls?
If a person falls on someone else's property, that person should notify their insurer. Most policies require notification of claims within a short period after the incident. If the property owner feels that the victim was careless, they should take names and contact info of any witnesses, and they should document the condition of the property as soon as possible after the incident.
If a slip and fall happens because of a permanent issue on the property, the issue should be rectified quickly. From the moment the incident occurs, the property owner is on notice of a potential danger. If someone else is hurt because of the condition, the owner is more likely to be deemed responsible for the person's injuries.
Preventing Slip and Fall Injuries
Every property owner can decrease or eliminate the chances of such an accident by regularly monitoring their premises for hazardous conditions. Snow, ice and water cause many slip and fall injuries, and property owners should take prompt action to minimize related dangers. If there are other defects that could potentially cause an accident, they should be repaired quickly. Regular maintenance is a solid defense that can block many claims brought against property owners.
Some insurance companies provide consultations to help property owners reduce risks on their premises, and asking a contractor to evaluate the property can provide valuable insight. Owners should not ignore minor incidents or professional advice because these things offer notice of a potential danger. Knowing of a risk and disregarding it can leave the property owner vulnerable to liability in slip and fall cases.
Slip and fall cases are very hard for a plaintiff to win, but if they are successful, it can be very costly for property owners. A slip and fall attorney can provide a property owner with a solid defense, and they can help them through the complex legal process. Visit Nettleslawfirm.com for further details.

NEWBERRY (AP) — Crews worked Tuesday to ensure that no more structures were damaged by a wildfire burning across more than 30 square miles of Michigan's Upper Peninsula as high winds in the forecast threatened to test firefighting efforts, an official said.
The Department of Natural Resources said 97 structures have been destroyed, including 34 homes or cabins. The latest estimate Tuesday added two sheds or outbuildings to a total released a day earlier. No injuries have been reported.
Some progress was marked Tuesday by the reopening of part of a state park that's popular with tourists and campers that had to close because of smoke and ash problems. DNR spokesman Dean Wilson said Tahquamenon Falls State Park's Upper Falls and related facilities reopened Tuesday, and the Lower Falls campground was expected to reopen at noon today, Wednesday.
Some hiking trails that lead into the burn area remain closed, he said.
"The fire isn't burning with the intensity that it was initially," Wilson said. "We're making good gains on containing it."
Recent rain helped in firefighting efforts, said Wilson and public information officer Ada Takacs, but the department said high winds in the forecast could fan the flames Wednesday.
Homes and cabins make up a third of the structures destroyed. The lost property includes Pike Lake Resort near Pike Lake in Luce County.
Debbie Bowhall and her husband, Doug, residents of Petoskey, own a cottage on Pike Lake, and Saturday night learned their cabin was still standing.
"It was a horrible weekend, but we are feeling better now. As of Sunday morning, we at least know our cabin is OK," said Debbie Bowhall. "Most of the cabins have metal roofs, so falling ashes might not start a fire right away. But there are so many big hemlocks around the lake, and it's been so dry."
Bowhall said fire destroyed cottages as close as four cabins down from her and her husband's, but the DNR assured the Bowhalls their cabin was still standing.
"We're just afraid of what it's going to look like up there, even if we've been saved," said Bowhall.
Jeff Babrick of Petoskey rents a campsite at the Rainbow Lodge, which the fire destroyed. He is waiting to see whether his camper made it through the blaze.
"I saw pictures of the Rainbow Lodge, or what's left of it, and saw a camper in the background that looked intact to me, and gave me hope that mine is still there," said Babrick. "I've been in contact with the DNR, and they're escorting up there for people to see their houses on Pike Lake or campers up at Rainbow Lodge. I'm supposed to go up there tomorrow (Thursday) to see what I'm facing."
Babrick said his camper is replaceable, but he is apprehensive of what he might find when he travels to the Upper Peninsula, where he has been spending time for 15 years. He leaves his camper at Rainbow Lodge year-round.
"It's kind of hard to talk about," he said. "The camper can be replaced, but the beauty can't."
The DNR said the blaze, which officials are calling the Duck Lake Fire, began with a lightning strike last week and burned about 22,000 acres, or 34 square miles. The fire was estimated Tuesday at about 21,700 acres, the DNR said, down slightly from previous estimates because of updated GPS data.
As of Tuesday, the fire was about 47 percent contained, Takacs said.
Meanwhile, a wildfire in the Seney National Wildlife Refuge that burned more than 5 square miles was roughly 95 percent contained, officials said. Some crews left the area. Firefighters planned to patrol the perimeter of the fire looking for hot spots.
The 3,400-acre Pine Creek North wildfire in Schoolcraft County was ignited by lightning and first reported May 21. It is west of the Duck Lake Fire. The Seney refuge covers about 95,000 acres. The fire is in the northeastern corner, a mixture of forests and bogs.

The Pathway to a New Citizenship: Policy Diffusion among European Independence Movements

- Summary note
- On September 18, 2014, as the world watched on, a referendum took place in Scotland on its eventual future as an independent country. Although it ultimately resulted in residents of Scotland choosing to remain part of the United Kingdom, the Scottish referendum sent shockwaves throughout Europe as many analysts started to wonder, "Who's next?" The drive for independence in Europe is certainly not a new phenomenon, but the potential of the advancement of the Scottish case naturally led to the anticipation of a resurgence of secessionist movements across the continent. This thesis explores the impact of the Scottish referendum on other European independence movements. Specifically, it approaches this study through the lens of policy diffusion, focusing on the mechanisms by which policies and strategies may travel from one regional movement to another, with particular focus on "learning" and "emulation" as factors in the progression of the Catalan, Basque, and Flemish independence since the announcement of the Edinburgh Agreement in 2012 and the Scottish Referendum in 2014. This thesis used a mixed methods combination of quantitative and qualitative analysis to shed greater light on the mechanisms at work in the presumed diffusion process. First, the thesis analyzes media coverage of these two critical referendum events in the target regions, using the difference in differences model to identify changes in the amount of attention devoted to issues of regional independence. This element, measured quantitatively in aggregate article counts from a selection of relevant newspapers, serves to establish the existence of a diffusion-based impact. The quantitative analysis also introduces search query patterns as a unit of analysis, in order to rule out emulation as the primary mechanism of diffusion. In addition, a semi-qualitative analysis focuses on changes in the tone and valence of coverage (based on the prevalence of negative versus affirmative terms in the articles). The thesis then turns to data garnered from a series of interviews with relevant actors/archetypes to highlight ideas that may have been learned from the principal movement by the target movements. The implications of the research herein discussed are threefold. First, in finding learning to be the primary mechanism at work in this scenario, this thesis points to a broader change in the nature of policy diffusion among contentious social movements. Secondly, an increased comprehension of the mechanisms behind the current flourishing of secessionist ideals in Europe creates opportunities for leaders within the European Union to effectively respond to these movements, both as a collective and as individual Member States. Lastly, this thesis addresses what seems to be an emerging conception of citizenship as something no longer determined by borders or nationalities as traditionally defined. In combination, these implications help lay the groundwork for future research in the fields of not only international relations, but also communications & media studies.

American Life in Poetry: Column 585
The greeting card companies are still making money, though the inventive online "cards" are gaining ground. Here's a poem about pen and ink greeting cards, by Cynthia Ventresca, who lives in Delaware.
She lived there for years in a
small space in a high rise that saw
her winter years dawn. When the past
became larger than her present,
she would call and thank us for cards
we gave her when we were small;
for Christmas, Mother's Day, her birthday,
our devotion scrawled amidst depictions
of crooked hearts and lopsided lilies.
She would write out new ones,
and we found them everywhere—unsent;
in perfect cursive she wished us joy,
chains of x's and o's circling her signature.
And when her time alone was over,
the space emptied of all but sunshine, dust,
and a cross nailed above her door,
those cards held for us a bitter peace;
they had finally been delivered.

A candidate standing in the Daventry local elections has called for cross-party support for a new professional park service in the town.
Tim Wilson made headlines last week after stepping down as UKIP's parliamentary candidate for Northamptonshire South after comments made by the party's only Scottish MEP about a Scottish government minister.
Now Mr Wilson, who is standing as an independent candidate for Drayton ward said the existing service provided by contractors Amey on behalf of Daventry District Council (DDC) is not fit for purpose and he intends to seek allies in creating a new professional park service to "restore dignity" in Daventry.
Mr Wilson said: "Some of what I have seen is dangerous and ugly. In many play areas tarmac is peeling up, there are parts of the pavements overgrown by trees and bushes.
"It costs far too much money for outsourcing this work and that is not properly landscaped.
"We have to revitalise the centre of town to make people feel proud of where they live. We have lots of people coming to live here and we have to take care of them."
Mr Wilson was critical of the quality of work carried out by contractors which he put down to "a lack of care and of training".
He said: "It is a huge project but I think a lot of people would be supportive because it is the only way I can think of restoring dignity."
Additional benefits of a park service include being able to offer a range of apprenticeships and a new emphasis on conservation and expansion of green areas.
Mr Wilson said he would be continuing to work with UKIP Cllr Sean Connors and that, with enough support in the council chamber, a professional park service could be achieved in three to four years.
He added: "Our green areas are simply in need of proper care. If the contractors cannot do that, we must."
Labour's Cllr Wendy Randall, who has been outspoken on environment issues in the town said: "I would support something like this but I would like to see each area of the town have a contractor responsible for that area.
"I would like to see the town council take over the responsible of looking after this service.
"This could allow us to subcontract the work out to smaller firms which can then grow their business. Small businesses could employ local people who know the area."
DDC's current seven year contract with Amey is due to expire in 2018. It is not known if the council intends to renew the service.

Order books have opened for the new Volkswagen Amarok Pick-up, with first customer deliveries expected in January 2017.
Replacing the previous model's 2.0-litre TDI engine, the new Amarok has a 3.0-litre V6 TDI engine - making it the only six-cylinder model in the segment, says VW. The top-of-the-range version of this new engine delivers 224 PS and 550 Nm of torque channelled through its standard eight-speed automatic gearbox, giving a top speed of 119 mph and a 0 to 62 mph time of 8.0 seconds. An overboost function on the 224 PS takes the power up to 240 PS. Further iterations of this V6 TDI engine include a 204 PS version which is available to order at launch with an automatic gearbox, plus a manual 204 PS and a 163 PS manual to follow later in 2017.
Combining what Volkswagen describes as 'car-like comfort' and technology, full off-road capability is available either as selectable (with manual gearbox) or permanent (with auto) 4MOTION four-wheel drive, while an optional mechanical rear-axle differential lock is also available for demanding off-road use.
From the outside the Amarok features new front bumper and radiator grille design including front fog lights, new alloy wheels and a third brake light with LED technology. Inside the cab, the changes include an all-new dash panel design which incorporates Volkswagen's MIB infotainment system with touchscreen, radio and new technology including the option of navigation, Guide & Inform, Car-Net and App-Connect systems. Bluetooth and DAB digital radio are also now standard.
Standard safety equipment includes four airbags, an Electronic Stabilisation Programme and Automatic Post-Collision Braking System. Additional highlights including Park Pilot and a rear-view camera also enhance comfort, convenience and safety.
Three trim levels include the Startline - available later in 2017 - through to the Trendline and Highline. Special editions will also be offered, for example a range-topping Aventura, of which only 240 examples will be available, is on sale now. It adds, on top of the Highline's equipment list - which includes items such as bi-xenon headlights with integrated LED daytime running lights - special features including 19-inch alloy wheels with 255/55 wide tyres and arch extensions. The bed of the Aventura's cargo box also has a matt black Durabed coating. The interior features a 'Discover Media' navigation system and mobile online services. The Aventura also comes with ParkPilot automatic parking system, featuring front and rear parking sensors and a reversing camera. This model is available in an exclusive Ravenna Blue metallic paint finish.
Prices for the new Volkswagen Amarok start at £32,493 OTR for the Trendline with 204 PS. The limited edition Aventura launch model costs £39,381 OTR.

Hello! A few photos of recent nail jobs! It seems blogger has changed since I last did this. No longer is an app! So while I figure out how much things have changed, I'll do something simple! I've switched to using my phone and iPad exclusively for some time. My laptop broke because I kept dropping it and the new one I bought was a dud and failed straight out of the box. So I decided to try to live without. Over six months later I'm still laptop-less.typing isn't as easy but I don't write pages and pages so the little iPad keyboard does ok.
If you are reading, then I'd love your comments, feedback is always appreciated. I am not a nail technician or a photographer! I do not claim to have fantastic nails. I simply own some fabulous polishes and have some fabulous friends who help me find them! I use an iPhone 5S to take my pictures.

"Waaii~!" Kinomoto Sakura cheered as she looked outside. "Snow! This is going to be the perfect New Years!" she grabbed her phone and dialed the number of her best friend.
"Hai, this is the Daidouji residence. Tomoyo speaking."
"Tomoyo-chan~! Finally, it's snowing!"
"Ohayo gozaimasu, Sakura-chan!" Tomoyo glanced outside. "Yes, it is snowing!" she beamed into the telephone. "I had a question to ask you, it's a good thing you called!"
"Hoeh? A question?"
"Are you busy on New Year's eve?"
"Tomorrow?" Sakura thought for a moment. "I don't think so. I'll go ask Dad. Hold on!"
The energetic girl ran down the stairs and asked her father if she was busy.
He told her that they did not have anything special planned.
"Hello, Tomoyo-chan?" Sakura picked the phone back up. "Dad said that we don't have anything planned! ....why?"
"Would you like to go on a skiing trip? I have um...let's see. Four tickets, and I wanted you to come!"
"Who else are you inviting?"
"Rika-chan, Naoko-chan, Chiharu-chan."
"But then you don't have a ticket."
"Do not worry, I'm pretty sure that one of them won't be able to make it."
"But what if they can all make it?"
"Then I'll get us another ticket." Tomoyo smiled.
"Could you call Chiharu-chan for me? And ask her?"
"Thanks. Listen, we'll meet outside at the penguin park at two...later today, okay?"
"Sure!" Sakura repeated, thrilled.
* * *
"Tomoyo-chan!!" Sakura ran over to her friend.
"Chiharu-chan said that she can make it!"
"Really?" Tomoyo seemed to be sort of depressed.
"Is something wrong?"
"Um...Naoko-chan and Rika-chan have a piano recital and can't come."
"Oh. Who are you going to invite?"
"How about Yamazaki-kun?"
The two girls sweatdropped, thinking of how many things he would be able to talk about at the ski resort.
"Well, I guess we should ask him..." Sakura said, the sweatdrop still on her head. "He wouldn't want to be left out..."
"Sakura-chan! Tomoyo-chaaaaaan!" Chiharu appeared out of what seemed like nowhere, wearing a heavy-looking jacket and gloves. "You were talking about Yamazaki-kun?" she sweatdropped along with the others. "Um...sorry, I took the liberty of asking him, myself..."
"You what?!"
"Don't worry! He said he couldn't come!"
"Oh." Sakura scratched her head. "Who's left?"
Tomoyo beamed. "I have an idea of who to invite. Sakura-chan, Chiharu-chan, I'll call you later to tell you what time we're leaving, okay?"
"Sure..." Sakura and Chiharu exchanged glances, neither knowing why Tomoyo was so happy all of a sudden.
* * *
Sakura, Chiharu and Tomoyo stood in front of the richest girl's mansion.
"Who did you get to come?" Chiharu asked, her head tilted to the side.
"You'll see when the person gets here." Tomoyo answered, a smile on her face.
Chiharu and Sakura glanced at each other, both noticing that Tomoyo wouldn't even give away the gender of the newcomer.
Sakura sighed, leaning back. "I hope she comes soon. I'm tired of waiting."
Tomoyo stifled a laugh, and the other two automatically figured out that the newcomer would be a boy.
"Yeah, she better be ready to ski, too. I don't want to hear that she got her skirt caught on a tree as she was skiing and she tripped." Chiharu said, watching her friend's expression carefully.
Tomoyo couldn't help it. She burst out laughing.
"Hoeh?" Sakura winked at Chiharu. "Do you mean that she really is that horrid at skiing?"
"What do you mean she?! You're not talking about me, right?" a voice growled and a very familiar figure made his way over to the three girls.
Sakura fell over. "L...L...Li-kun~!"
Syaoran glanced at Tomoyo, who was still helpless with laughter. He glared at her. "You did tell them that I was coming, right?"
Tomoyo shook her head, giggling.

Elegant in its simplicity, Erin and Amir's Sarasota rooftop wedding was held earlier this year at Morton's Gourmet Market .
Setting the tone for the wedding were these navy blue and white custom wedding invitations created with a clean contemporary design with touches of rose gold.
Erin chose a beautiful satin A-Line gown with a full skirt by BHLDN with a deep V neckline, strappy back and sheer illusion side panels. Breathtaking rose satin peep-toe pumps with an oversized bow and crystal embellishment by Badgley Mischka were the perfect accent to this simple yet elegant gown.
Amir looked sharp in a retro inspired navy blue tuxedo with a black satin notch collar. Amir is the owner of Sarasota's The Diamond Vault and he made sure they both had the perfect but understated jewelry for their special day. A tiny shark pin, simple pocket square and wristwatch accented his classic look.
Guests gathered on the Sarasota rooftop for an intimate wedding ceremony, officiated by a close family friend. A beautiful modern, copper wedding arch, a custom piece created by our in-house designer Matthew Matteo, was accented with an asymmetrical arrangement of seeded eucalyptus and dotted with white roses, tulips and wax flowers to create a unique focal point.
Following the ceremony, the photographer took some relaxed photos of Amir and Erin in the market and downtown Sarasota. The couple enjoyed a gourmet dinner and night of dancing on the rooftop under a canopy of market lights.
Our Jennifer Matteo Event Planning team wishes Erin and Amir a lifetime of happiness!

Weekly Article 05-09-2018
In an interesting interview on USA Watchdog Nomi Prins, a best-selling financial author, stated that, since the financial crisis began central bank's balance sheets have ballooned to over $21 TRILLION dollars globally. To me, this means that a huge amount of money from nowhere was conjured up, assets were purchased, and virtually all price discovery in most markets has been obliterated. That will happen when $21 trillion of demand from nowhere shows up. Similar to someone who wins the lottery- these people didn't work for this money and they don't have the respect for it that they would have had if their blood, sweat and tears went into earning it.
Who in their right mind would buy a negative-yielding bond which guarantees a loss if held to maturity? My guess is only someone who got the "money" for free and whatever the value – it's more than they started with. Absurd!
This has been going on now for quite some time and the numbers are getting larger and larger- as are the consequences of these actions. In the latest example of "you can't fix a debt problem by going deeper into debt" Argentina has agreed to an IMF bailout. This will allow them to have a short-term solution to their debt problems by adding new debt to pay interest on the old debt and incur new debt to continue spending.
Of course, as a condition of this IMF "bailout" Argentina will likely see it's national assets plundered similar to what we have seen in Greece and many other countries over the years. For those who don't pay attention, the IMF steps in when nations get in trouble with debt and can't repay. They set up a line of credit and eventually force austerity on the said nation after they get in trouble again- which they all seem to do because- you can't fix a debt problem by going deeper into debt!
All of this "printing" is causing the weakest hands to be exposed as we are seeing debt and currency problems in places like Turkey, Argentina, Venezuela, Zimbabwe, Indonesia, etc.
So, why is this important? Ms. Prins made one more extremely important point- one which I have been making for years but she just recently released an entire book about it. The point? The only way this collusion between central bank continues to work is if they all work together. In reality, as the Fed has supposedly pulled back in their "printing" the ECB and Bank of Japan are in hyper-print mode so the net effect is still stimulative. Not that I believe the Fed has stopped at all anyway. Add to that the largest buybacks in history by American companies in the first quarter of 2018 and the monetary spigot has continued to be wide open.
What is important, in my opinion, is that with all of this continued intervention in both stock and bond markets it appears that this stimulation is preventing sharp revaluation in both stocks and bonds. I see interest rates under constant pressure to spike higher and major interventions to stop it. I see stock markets showing major weakness and major buying when technical levels are threatened. This is in the USA. I am sure that in Europe and Asia there is similar action taking place as all major central banks are in on the "print and buy real stuff" party.
With intervention in these markets at these levels one might expect that bond yields would be near all time lows and stock and bond prices near or at all time highs. A year ago that was true- not so much today. It appears that historical interventions are not enough to keep the new all-time highs coming these days.
As economic reality starts to set in each country will have its moment of truth that shows up. At that time I think we can expect the politicians to do what politicians do and make sure that they take care of their national interests to stay in power and not have civil unrest. This may be the moment of truth when each country does what is best for them and either a trade or currency war takes place.
Looking at national balance sheets it is only a matter of time before ALL developed countries are forced to deal with being over-indebted and unable to even pay the interest due without issuing new debt and reducing budgets for virtually all other spending. Looking at many US states it is easy to see an unfolding problem as many municipalities and states are reducing services, putting off paying bills and going deeper into debt just to fund pension obligations. There are many more problems that are on the horizon like aging infrastructure and an aging population.
While many will ask when this will all play out I will give my usual answer- I can't believe it's taken this long so I won't comment on that. I will, however, put a few thoughts that the IMF has on this issue out there.
All of these quotes come form "A Bumpy Road Ahead" IMF April 2018
"Although still-easy financial conditions support economic growth in the near-term, they may also contribute to a buildup of financial imbalances, excessive risk taking, and mispricing of risks"
My take: This has been happening since 2009. I believe we are nearer to the end than the beginning.
"Financial Markets Remain Vulnerable To An Inflation Surprise"
My take: While we hear from those in charge they want higher inflation I am seeing massive inflation in food, gasoline, healthcare, taxes, transportation, etc. I am surprised already!
"Growth in less liquid Bond ETFs may raise Financial Stability Concerns"
My take: I have mentioned numerous times about unusual leverage in many ETFs that many would assume to be reasonably "safe". The use of leverage undermines that theory and may pose risks because of the supposed liquidity of the ETF and possible illiquidity of underlying assets in the ETF basket. Selling may beget more selling.
"Increasing Use of Financial Leverage May Amplify Risks" "Sharp price declines can lead to investor runs and fire sales of liquid assets to cover redemptions and margin requirements"
We saw it in 2008 and will likely see it again since the leverage has increased substantially since the last time.
"Equity valuations remain expensive"
For anyone who has ever heard of "buy low- sell high" the IMF is giving you a clue that anyone buying now is not buying low. Of course, there are exceptions to every rule but overall stocks remain in nosebleed territory and, in my opinion, should be bought at a better price.
"Corporate Bond Valuations are stretched and credit quality is deteriorating in risky segments" "Signs of overheating are evident in the leveraged loan market"
In an attempt to get better yields investors are basically throwing caution to the wind and are lending money to firms that, in normal times would have to agree to far stiffer terms if they could get financing at all. This has led to many zombie companies that don't have enough cash flow to pay existing debt. Look out when it is about to mature.
While the IMF doesn't give any timelines they do highlight the many risks that litter the entire monetary system that we are in.
Of course, the financial game shows are telling us that inverted yield curves don't matter this time- just like house prices only go up! By the way, England has an inverted yield curve and the USA is on the cusp of an inverted yield curve. They'll also tell us that there are SO many jobs they just can't get filled as company after company is going bankrupt and retail spaces are turning into modern day ghost towns. How many people do you personally know who can't find a decent job- at any age?
How many of you out there want higher prices for everything?
These people remind me of Baghdad Bob during the Iraq war!
Don't wait to prepare until the planes are overhead- it will certainly be too late!
Be Prepared!

Plains zebras makes excellent photographic subjects, and are regularly encountered in Rietvlei Nature Reserve in Pretoria.
Our end-of-year 2015 holidays were absolutely packed to the brim. Apart from our ten-day visit to the Kruger National Park (read more about our time at Lower Sabie, Olifants and Shingwedzi in December), we also made day trips to five other reserves, and will be sharing photos from those (except Suikerbosrand, which we introduced in a post all of its own) daily through the month of February, in a series we call "a month of monochrome memories".

In our culture and society, it is becoming ever more difficult to stand up and be "a man after God's own heart." As Proverbs 27:7 says, "Just as iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another." (NASB) In 1624, John Donne penned, "No man is an island," and it is just as true today, perhaps even more so because of today's societal beliefs, opinions, and pressures. However, together, we are able to discuss and communicate concerning the real issues all men face in order to strengthen each other emotionally and spiritually.
Our Men's Life Group, called AMP – Activating Men's Power – meets periodically at Family Life Church for activities and fellowship and to allow men to socialize and strengthen other men.
Our AMP meeting will be on Saturday, August 26 AMP for a Fight Night viewing of the Mayweather ~ McGregor fight at the home of Jerry Fields. Bring $10/person to watch the fight. Food will be provided. Come, bring a friend, & enjoy the fellowship of other men.
You will love being able to celebrate kinship with other men, so come expecting ~ and bring a friend!

I started examining advanced spiritual enlightenment and the sense of disgust. It makes good evolutionary sense that human beings gone through the advanced path should have an emotion that makes them feel repulsion toward rotten food, and other physical objects that are full of dangerous bacteria and parasites. Disgust can be reactive or can me a normal response to the surrounding environment. It also makes sense that disgust should make us hypersensitive to contagion—that is, we feel disgust toward anything that touched something that we find disgusting.
When actually asked people in several countries to list the things they thought were disgusting, the most responses mentioned social offenses, such as hypocrisy, racism, cruelty, and betrayal.
How on earth did a food-based and very corporeal emotion become a social and moral emotion? The answer is that while disgust may motivate people to distance themselves from physical threats, it is well-suited for dealing with social threats as well. When we find social actions disgusting, they indicate to us that the person who commit¬ted them is in some way morally defective.
In this light, we can place human actions on a vertical dimension that runs from our conception about GOOD and EVIL. This vertical dimension is part of the truth that people are reincarnated at higher or lower levels depending on their moral behavior in this life.
Social disgust can then be understood as the emotional reaction people have to witnessing others moving "down," or exhibiting their lower, baser, less God-like nature. Human beings feel revolted by moral depravity, and this revulsion is akin to the revulsion they feel toward rotten food and cockroaches. In this way, dis¬gust helps us form groups, reject deviants, and build a moral community.
Going through the path of spiritual enlightenment makes people rise on the vertical dimension toward goodness. This makes people feel higher on it themselves. If disgust is a negative emotion that strengthens ego bound-arise and defenses against a morally reprehensible other, then true spiritual enlightenment is its opposite—a desire to associate with those who are morally admirable. Love and a desire for affiliation appear to be a common human response.
It is a very beautiful fact about that each of us can be moved to tears by the sight of a stranger helping another stranger. It is an even more beautiful fact that these feelings sometimes inspire us to change our own behavior, values, and goals.

I take our eleven year old son to Faith Academy for 5th grade PE classes twice a week (primarily so that he can play on sports teams as a part-time student). We ride a taxi home.
Today, I knew that I would need to pay some workmen who were installing a window air conditioner that we had purchased back in January, and I found myself with only a P1000 bill in my wallet (about $25). The workmen needed P350, and were unlikely to have change. So I decided to get some food on the way home, in order to break the P1000. First, Ezekiel and I bought six mangos (P60/kilo) from a fruit vendor on the corner of my usual place for catching taxis. This wasn't actually a great price: they are P40 at the market. But it was nice to bring some mangos home for hungry kids' lunch. Indeed, they gobbled them up, and then asked for more just an hour after lunch.
With Ezekiel holding the bag of mangos, our taxi driver drove us home along Circumferential Rd. on a whim, I decided to take the plunge and asked the driver to stop at a shop selling liempo. The subtitle on the sign read, "Tastier than Lechon." Liempo is rotisserie-roasted pork belly. It looks like this:
It tastes like the tenderest pork you've ever tasted, wrapped in bacon. It isn't actually wrapped in bacon, but it tastes like it, because the outer layer has been cooked and seasoned just the way bacon would be.
The sign wasn't kidding. It is tastier than lechon — which is itself plenty tasty. Indeed, liempo is probably the best meat I've ever tasted. The only problem is that it's a little pricey: P185 for a half-kilo piece. But I'll probably get three meals out of it in this family of vegetarians.
The Philippines is widely held to serve the best pig in the world. I readily believe it. This is a good place to be a Gentile!

The challenge for the CPDD is to derive, utilize, and defend scientific standards for defining abuse liability. The tautological argument that a definition of abuse must include marijuana use because marijuana use must be drug abuse is exactly the misuse of terminology both Cicero and Brady have complained about above. Nonetheless, the question of validity is always important in evaluating scientific reasoning.
"How can the self-administration model validated? First, . . .there must be concordance between animal and clinical results. In order to define the limitations of methodologies, more effort should be placed on determining the reasons for discordant results. Secondly, there also must be some sort of concordance between both the incidence and perniciousness of street abuse on one hand, and the results of both animal and clinical studies on the other. Because fads and trends play a major role in drug abuse patterns, a good concordance can be expected only for those drugs whose street abuse is well established."(25)
The validity of the conceptual model behind reliance on self-administration has been established by research on the biological actions of drugs of abuse. Brady discusses the synergy between biology and behavior in his acceptance of a lifetime achievement award from the CPDD in 1990.
"[L]aboratory procedures for the generation and maintenance of drug self-administration have become the hallmark of abuse liability assessment based upon the kind of functional models that have proven most useful and productive in the experimental analysis of behavior. The most important conceptual and methodological consequence of this interactive research has been the analysis of relationships between the biochemical/ pharmacological properties of drugs and their environmental/behavioral stimulus functions."(26)
"The explosive advances in new knowledge of neurotransmitter and receptor dynamics combined with the demonstrated specificity of action and good correspondence with drug discrimination generalization profiles now provide a more precise behavioral reflection of neurochemical mechanisms."(27)

As many readers of this blog are aware, I have a complaint driven inspection due – any day now. Although I am saddened that people think it appropriate to put in malicious complaints, wasting Ofsted's time and resources, my time, and to create worry for the parents using my childminding service; I am not worried about the forthcoming inspection, as Ofsted and indeed anyone else are welcome to visit at any time. In fact I have an 'open door' policy whereby anyone (once their identity has been checked) can just 'pop in' – it is as it is, here at Penny's Place. In my opinion high quality practice, day in, day out – and although I am of course double checking that everything is in place – and a few little things did need updating – I am not changing my practice just because an inspection is due.
However as many readers are also aware, I communicate with a lot of other Early Years professionals with a mutually respectful, two way sharing of information; these professionals include; practitioners from all early years sectors, early years organisations, local authorities, Ofsted, researchers, authors, tutors, consultants, teachers – and parents. As a result of all this two way sharing of information, I have had some information shared about how inspectors are checking things in relation to safeguarding – and in particular as a direct result of the recent serious case reviews of the very sad cases involving young children in childcare settings.
Of course not all inspectors will use these prompts, some will use the prompt list fully and some will just have it in mind when checking other evidence within the setting.
However, I think it is worth all early years settings taking a look at the list as part of their reflective practice – and I certainly have.
At inspection:
- check the record of DBS/CRB checks for all staff, students, the household
- check qualifications for all adults working in the setting
- review the Provider's history
- review the Complaints log
Ask possible child protection based questions, such as:
- Do adults (and if applicable family members) understand internet safety when working with children/alone?
- Does the physical layout of bathrooms balance privacy and reduced opportunities to abuse?
- Do adults and / or family members understand indicators regarding relationships with children e.g. excessive attention?
- What would the registered person and / or staff do if concerned?
- How are 'special relationships' between adults and children scrutinised, especially for vulnerable children?
- Are children listened to, regardless of age?
- Are adults aware of how to respond to comments which cause concern?
- Are there clear strict rules about safeguarding practice?
- How does the provider discourage cliques and promote good team-working?
- If employ staff; do supervision sessions support staff to reflect on their own behaviour and raise any concerns they have about colleagues, particularly around safeguarding?
- If don't employ staff – how is own behaviour reflected on? Is there a 'critical friend'?
- Are parents aware of how to raise concerns?
- Are adults aware that they can be 'groomed'/'coerced' by others both in and outside the workplace?
- How does the provider ensure staff have considered the potential to be 'groomed'?
- Are recruitment procedures effective, including more than just DBS checks?
- How are visitors to the setting,(including in home based settings, family and friends) checked and supervised to ensure they are not put at risk of allegations of abuse?
- How does the provider ensure the continued suitability of staff and /or consider the impact of others in their household?
- How are appropriate professional barriers maintained between providers and parents where it is a close knit community?
I hope readers find this useful as part of their reflective practice and as a bit of a 'heads up' before inspection.
