There's no doubt that bankruptcy isn't a desirable scenario to be grappling with. There are some severe financial implications involved and it's a very intricate and stressful process that will affect you financially for a couple of years to come. Ending up in mountains of debt can transpire in a heartbeat, and many individuals end up in this situation because of a wide variety of factors. Not having the capacity to work resulting from illness is one of the most frequent reasons why people declare bankruptcy. It's not like they had any control over the situation, but being unable to pay off their debts because they have no income is the hard reality they have to face. In fact, 7,900 individuals in Australia declared bankruptcy in the March 2017 quarter1, so it's not as rare as some people may believe. If you ask me, I think that bankruptcy is neither good nor bad. Of course, those who file for bankruptcy have made some poor financial decisions and will reprimanded accordingly, but declaring bankruptcy is also the first step to financial freedom. A great deal of people struggle for years just to make ends meet, even though their debts keep worsening, so often times, bankruptcy is an opportunity for a new beginning for individuals that are unable to repay their debts.
Though I've never been bankrupt personally, I've witnessed the journey of lots of people who have and surprisingly, the majority of people are better off and glad they underwent the process. If you're facing financial difficulties and contemplating bankruptcy, this article will summarise what life is like after you file for bankruptcy.
You Won't Be Completely Debt Free By Declaring Bankruptcy
Bankruptcy is quite complicated, and there is a common misconception that all debts are removed by filing for bankruptcy. This is definitely not the case. There are several debts that won't be eliminated, for example Centrelink debts, HECS debts, child support, court imposed fines (like speeding tickets), and money that is owed to an insurance company arising from a car accident where you were uninsured and in the wrong. Conversely, filing for bankruptcy will remove debts like credit cards, GST and tax, and unsecured personal loans. The reality is, you will still have debts to pay after you file for bankruptcy, but the most notable debts in most cases, such as credit cards, will be cleared.
Feelings Of Remorse And Shame Are Natural
Bankruptcy is an arduous process and many people who file for bankruptcy have feelings of regret and embarrassment; as if they've lost in life. This is quite standard, however it's paramount to overcome these emotions because the reality is, humans make mistakes, and bankruptcy is a way that you can go back to square one financially and get your life back on the right track. The sooner you recover from these feelings of embarrassment, the sooner you'll be able to start the recovery process and work out a plan of how you're going to repay your outstanding debts and rebuild your credit report. Remember, bankruptcy lasts for three years and after seven years, it will no longer appear on your credit history, so it's definitely not the end of the world.
You Can't Borrow Any Money For Three Years
Unfortunately, by declaring bankruptcy you won't be able to borrow any money under any circumstances for three years. During this time, it's vital that you start rebuilding your credit history by maintaining a regular income and paying your bills and remaining debts on time. It's simple but effective. After this three-year process, you become a discharged bankrupt and will have the chance to obtain loans for secured assets like houses and cars, but your interest rates will be much higher due to your poor credit history. Though it's not always recommended to acquire loans straight away, it is possible. After seven years from the time you became bankrupt, your credit rating will be clean, and you will have the option to secure all sorts of loans again at competitive rates.
Life after declaring bankruptcy certainly isn't easy, but the emotional relief that most individuals experience after starting the process certainly softens the blow. There are some considerable financial consequences involved, but declaring bankruptcy is the first step towards financial freedom and securing a bright future for you and your family. If you're enduring financial distress, it's always best to seek professional advice sooner rather than later. Whatever you do, don't keep struggling financially for years because you're afraid of the stigma linked with bankruptcy. It's challenging, but it's also not the end of the world.

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) As his players gathered for a courtside huddle, Patrick Chambers didn't see any of the glassy-eyed, distant stares or nervous ticks that prevailed the last time Penn State faced a late deficit.
This time, Chambers saw players confident they could overcome an 8-point Bucknell lead with 5:30 to play.
''I saw a very fierce focus,'' Chambers said. ''Whatever I said I knew was going to get executed the way I wanted it to.''
Chambers' plan was set in motion when play resumed, but it didn't follow the script exactly. Instead of hot-handed Brandon Taylor, who led all players with 19 points, Payton Banks drilled the game-winning shot in Penn State's 62-58 win on Saturday.
With Taylor heavily guarded inside, he kicked the ball out to Banks who hit a 3-pointer with 23 seconds left to break a 58-58 tie and put the game out of Bucknell's reach.
Chris Haas led Bucknell (3-3) with 18 points. Nine of them came over a 1:24 span that gave the Bison their 8-point lead, the largest for either team with 5:37 to play. But Haas missed what would've been the tying 3-pointer with 2.9 seconds left. Taylor snagged the rebound, drew a foul and made a free throw to cap the scoring.
The game was back and forth before Haas got hot with 13 lead changes overall and was tied for 11:10.
''We were in control of it going down the stretch,'' Bucknell coach Nathan Davis said. ''His guys showed a tremendous amount of mental toughness, executed well at both ends and were able to make one more play at the end than we did.''
More importantly, Penn State was able to play a better brand of defense than it had recently.
After giving up 78 and 86 points in losses to Duquesne and Radford over their past two games, Penn State players spent the two practices leading up to Saturday's game working almost entirely on defense. It paid off, especially late when the Nittany Lions fueled a 13-1 run with strong defensive work.
The Nittany Lions notched four defensive rebounds, three blocks, a steal and pressured the Bison to force an 0-for-7 shooting slump to end the game.
''It was nice to see it wasn't a 3. It wasn't a 1-and-1. It was on the defensive end,'' Chambers said.
Bucknell: The Bison put up some nice offensive numbers through their first four games, making 49.8 percent of their field goals and 37.9 percent of their 3-pointers while averaging 86.2 points per game. Penn State's defensive squeeze held them to 29.8 percent on field goals, 30 percent on 3-pointers and well below their scoring average.
Penn State: The Nittany Lions improved to 78-25 against the Bison and have won 14 of the last 15 meetings. Three players had finished in double figures in each game for Penn State before Saturday when only Taylor notched double-digit points.
No sequence fired Penn State's bench up more than when Josh Reaves and Shep Garner turned in back-to-back blocks with less than 4:20 to play.
Reaves fingered a Ryan Frazier jumper and the ball floated to Stephen Brown who lined up for a 3-pointer. But Brown's shot was blocked by Garner and Penn State players erupted from their courtside seats. Just over a minute later, Taylor hammered away a Nana Foulland jumper for Penn State's sixth and final block of the game.
''They ignited us,'' Chambers said. ''There's no doubt. I saw the change the last two days of practice because we started defending and rebounding and getting angry because we weren't.''
Although Saturday's game marked the first time Penn State hadn't had at least three players in double figures this season, the Nittany Lions got balanced scoring when they needed it.
Shep Garner finished with nine points and he, Julian Moore and Jordan Dickerson all made baskets during Penn State's comeback run. Dickerson finished with a season-high eight points including an inside putback with 1:16 left that tied the game at 58.
Bucknell hosts Columbia on Wednesday.
Penn State visits Boston College on Wednesday.

Organic Conceptions with Marc Sherman & Dr. Kate Webster
Today's guests are Marc Sherman and Dr. Kate Webster, creators of the revolutionary online course Organic Conceptions. This course began with Erin and Marc Sherman's personal struggle in trying to conceive for a decade. In partnership with Dr. Webster, they created a roadmap for themselves and others to chart a course that engages and empowers couples on their path to parenthood. They share the primary goals of Organic Conceptions, the main three chapters and primary expectations that arise and the importance of surrender. Marc and Dr. Webster are really doing some amazing work with helping others achieve emotional health and insight during their process and I thank them for digging deep in their own experience to provide a ton of hope, guidance, and information for others.
[2:40] I share the impressive backgrounds and bios of Dr. Kate Webster and Erin and Marc Sherman.
[7:05] Dr. Webster covers the primary goals of Organic Conceptions, stemming out of predictable problems and patterns with infertility. She also shares what the program is not so people have appropriate expectations.
[8:00] Depending on the statistics, between 1-in-6 and 1-in-8 couples struggles with infertility.
[16:09] They combine influences from biological, emotional, psychological, and sociological models.
[22:03] The program provides the opportunity for couples to go through the steps at their own time in their own home rather than rushing to appointments.
[26:29] Every story culminated into three chapters and nine transitions: The conception of doubt, couples losing patience, and surrender into life.
[29:23] Dr. Webster lists the five primary expectations that arise: age, sequencing of life events, gender roles, images of success, and trust in the medical model.
[34:30] The stages in the surrender into life chapter: rawness, reaching forward and uniting together, renewal.
[36:40] More than one third of women have pre-conceived doubt about their reproductive abilities before they even try get pregnant.
[44:40] It's difficult for young women today to try and fit in a career, marriage, and family goals all in one decade.
[55:48] We hear the difference of mal-adaptive vs adaptive coping.
[56:49] Surrendering does not mean just relaxing or giving up on a dream for parenthood. Dr. Webster and Marc share stories of couples that accept the things they cannot change, let go of past disappointment and control over the future to end up finding life again and new interests and passions. A lot of times people have success even after they are significantly older than when they first started on their journey.
[69:15] Every listener gets a free PDF and a monetary discount. They are coming out with a workbook shortly as well.
Continue Your Journey:

"Sometimes the struggle is the gift and the door closing is just leading you somewhere else."
"Couples are living to try, rather than trying to live."
"We have a tendency to … leap to conclusions rather than trying to reframe it."
"When we have a problem, we tend to check in with the experts first before we check in with ourselves."
"So often we are held hostage by our beliefs but we can change our minds. What we think may not always be true."
About Organic Conceptions:
Organic Conceptions began with founders Erin and Marc Sherman's personal struggle in trying to conceive for nearly a decade. In partnership with Ph.D Kate Webster they used proven scientific practices to dig deep into stories from couples like them who unexpectedly overcame infertility naturally (i.e Adopted then conceived, and other such stories). Each individual story offers insight, but when woven together, they provide a road map that can guide others on their journey. Organic Conceptions' goal is to chart a course that educates, engages, and empowers couples on their personal path to parenthood.

In 2017: Events I'm Attending
Of course, there are lots of things happening next year. Movie premieres, trips, conventions, vacations etc. Today I'd like to talk about the five events I am looking forward to the most next year!
Harry Potter Exhibition – 15 February
When I heard they were finally going to bring the Harry Potter exhibition to the Netherlands, I was thrilled! Then, I got an email from Pathé, the cinema I have my unlimited cards from, that Unlimited members could get tickets with a discount, and Tanja and I decided to just go for it! We're going on the Wednesday in the opening's week and I CANNOT WAIT!
Dutch Comic Con – 25/26 March
I have to say this has to be my favourite convention in the Netherlands. I've been to all their previous editions, even the Christmas one, and I enjoyed them all very much. So I am definitely going to their regular DCC again, and hope that they have a couple of cool actors coming too!
London – 10 til 14 April
I AM FINALLY GOING TO LONDON Y'ALL! No, I have never been to London properly before – just to travel from and to the airport. But in April I am finally going to see this (hopefully) amazing city. And I am going to see the Harry Potter play, even though I am not a fan of the story. I am also finally going to the Leavesden studios and I am already sobbing guys.
Lanzarote – 25 July till 1 August
After years of not really going on a vacation (I kinda count HobbitCon as a vacation though, but that wasn't the relaxy type of vacation everyone means I guess) I am joining my family on a week-long holiday to Lanzarote. We're staying at an amazing hotel (not 100% sure if it's the hotel pictures, but I think so?) and I honestly can't wait, yay!
Thor: Ragnarök premiere – November
This one is kind of an 'I am not sure' thing, because we heard a rumour that Disney is possibly not doing premieres in London any more – which also means they're not doing Marvel or Star Wars (both owned by Disney) anymore either. Still, there's bound to be a premiere for this movie in Europe, and we're just hoping it's in a convenient place. I just really want to go to at least one 'big' movie premiere next year.
So these are the five events I am mostly looking forward to in the upcoming year. It's going to be Harry Potter filled and hopefully convention filled as well! And so we've come to the end of another Best of the Year series, I hope you've enjoyed it, and I hope to see you in 2017 as well!
Happy New Year!

AP clamping down on online content
The blogosphere isn't going to like this one.
In an effort to tighten the screws on how its content is used on the Web, the Associated Press is planning to develop what it's calling a news registry that will track news articles to "ensure compliance with terms of use."
AP promises to bundle its news in a digital "wrapper," essentially a bit of software that would accompany its stories on their travels around the Web, complete with a notification mechanism to tip off the news cooperative when its content is being misappropriated.
"What we are building here is a way for good journalism to survive and thrive," said AP Chairman Dean Singleton said in a statement. "The AP news registry will allow our industry to protect its content online, and will assure that we can continue to provide original, independent and authoritative journalism at a time when the world needs it more than ever."
This could get very litigious.

One of the greatest things about fly fishing, in comparison with other sporting activities, is that it can be practiced through our whole life; old age not really being a serious obstacle. In fact one of my fishing buddies is 70+ years old now, and it takes some serious effort to follow his rhythm on the river. Paradoxically, aging as a fly fisher is a sort of advantage, as it is the passing of years what makes our experience and technical abilities grow.
I think that, apart from extreme distance presentations, the same is applicable to fly casting, an activity in which you never stop learning and improving. In my view, along this path there are some significant milestones, like steps in the ladder of proficiency. Thinking about it I distinguish four of these "stages of enlightenment". There are probably more, and you surely will have your own list if you reflect about it; feel free to comment your views.
So let's go with the first stage of enlightenment.
The natural tendency of any self-taught fly angler is to cast by describing with his hand a purely rotary motion, like that of a windscreen wiper. That motion usually is too ample, drawing too big a stroke angle and forcing the rod tip to describe a curved path, like an arc of a circle. Of course, this results in loops that are too wide and inefficient. Learning how to adjust that stroke angle is the first step in the journey to the goal of presenting the fly accurately and naturally.
The following step leads us to the first stage of enlightenment: the motion that our rod butt should describe is a combination of a linear motion and a rotary one. During the casting stroke we have to start moving the rod butt without changing its angle in relation to the water; only at the end of the stroke we will make the rod to rotate, describing the appropriate stroke angle. That is, translation and then rotation. This maneuver puts us in the route towards excellence in line control —provided that our stroke accelerates progressively from start to finish.
This is a simple graphic representation of the idea of translation preceding rotation (the direction of the cast is from left to right):
The following video shows the look of that delayed rotation —or rotation at the right time, as some fine instructors prefer to say— in the real world. It depicts a long cast by Paul Arden:
Being a very long cast, Paul needs a very long casting stroke as well; such a long stroke allows us to discern very distinctively the difference between the translation phase and the rotation one.
In medium to short casts the difference between the two phases is more diffuse, as the translation is shorter, the stroke angle smaller, and, moreover, the casting styles more suitable for fishing at short distance are not so inclined to facilitate a pure translation motion as that javelin throw above. Although it is true that for presenting the fly at very close quarters you can use a rotation only casting stroke, using the translation/rotation sequence helps in ingraining that motion in our muscle memory to use it when it is vital —for instance, when that frustrating experience of the big fish eating two meters farther away than our best efforts allow arises again.
The following is an exercise for training this "delayed" rotation technique:
As the old Spanish saying goes: pequeñas causas, grandes efectos —that is, small causes, big effects.

« 10 existential Tango lyrics that are way too nihilistic to be sung in English, even as a Country-Western song) | Main | "Siete Tandas" CD Release Milonga on Sept. 19 »
Mandragora tango has just finished their newest CD: "Siete Tandas". Tango dancers group their dances into little sets called "tandas". The idea is that you dance with the same partner for the whole tanda, then move on. It becomes a miniature love affair, where you get to know your partner, start to grove together, and have a sorrowful separation, all in the course of 12 minutes of music. Mandragora has created an album of 7 of these affairs with the super-original title Siete Tandas (Seven Tandas in Spanish).
Siete Tandas is meant first and foremost for dancing. It is an interpretation of an idealized evening of tango dancing. It starts early (11PM or so) with tandas of traditional, highly rhythmic Argentine tangos and gets more and more lush and passionate as the night progresses. To keep things from getting too hot, it breaks up the evening with a tanda of "Vals" (Argentine Waltzes) and "Milongas" (an Argentine 2-step). But as the night goes on, the temperature continues to rise and Mandragora takes the dancers into more and more sensual and exotic soundscapes. In the small hours of the morning, Mandragora plays a tanda of heart-achingly beautiful slow dances by Astor Piazzolla. The dancers who are left on the nearly empty floor can enjoy an almost erotic interplay of sound and motion before they go their separate ways. Or not.
At any rate, our CD is the result of a lot of hard work and was made possible by the tango community of Minnesota, for whom we play every Sunday for the past 8 years. We believe that we have played for more "Milongas" (Tango dance parties) than any other band in the US. And, as dancers ourselves, we understand the difference between playing concert music and playing for social dance. However, in creating "Siete Tandas", we never chose dancibility over musicality (or vice-versa). You don't need to dance to appreciate this album. You just have to have a little darkness in your soul.
From the Tango Los Mareados (Track 11):
Hoy vas a entrar en el pasado de mi vida...
Tres cosas lleva mi alma herida: ¡Amor… Pesar… Dolor…!
Today you are going to enter the past of my life…
Three things are carried by my wounded heart: Love… Despair… Pain!
As of this writing, Siete Tandas is still at the printers. Well let you know when they are available for purchase. They should be at CDBaby by August.

Across the street I noticed some buzz in front of what looked to be a new store, so I walked over to check it out. It was in fact a new store .... from Gant!
Gant! I think of the brand as tacky mens' ties and business shirts, to be honest. But clearly the brand has gotten an extreme makeover. The store itself was so inviting, a little boutique that just draws you in. Rustic wood paneling, cabinets filled with merchandise, and sales associates dressed perfectly. The clothes are amazing. Casual stuff like jeans and rugby shirts and polos - a bit like Ralph Lauren meets J.Crew.
The brains behind the new brand is designer Michael Bastian, and his work is incredible (if you are as much into mens' clothing as I am). So impressive that I just had to give him and Gant a shout out! You can visit his work here.
I am not sure how wide the distribution is, but you really do need to check it out. I bought a pair of khaki's for myself and now I'm buying the lacrosse-inspired jacket and polo shirt for my son.
I just love seeing a "tired" (sorry, no offense) brand get revitalized. It's the stuff great marketing is made of!
What's your experience? Jim

It sounds like Jim Calhoun will return for another season but in addition to losing five players this spring and the specter of not playing in the 2013 postseason, the program suffered another blow, albeit minor by comparison: the Huskies have been left out of the Big East/SEC Challenge.
Because there are 16 Big East teams and just 12 SEC teams, every year at least four teams won't be on the schedule. So it's just coincidence -- UConn knew about drawing the short stick weeks ago -- but losing out on the national exposure certainly won't help with the Huskies' image, particularly when it comes to recruiting.
UConn wisely made contingency plans, accepting an invitation to face N.C. State in the Jimmy V Classic N.C. State on December 4.
In case you're interested in which teams the Huskies won't face, here's the Big East/SEC schedule:
Thurs., Nov. 29
Kentucky at Notre Dame
Marquette at Florida
South Carolina at St. John's
Seton Hall at LSU
Fri., Nov. 30
Syracuse at Arkansas
Tennessee at Georgetown
DePaul at Auburn
Georgia at South Florida
Sat., Dec. 1
Alabama at Cincinnati
Villanova at Vanderbilt
Mississippi State at Providence
Rutgers at Mississippi
Because of all the conference upheaval -- both in the Big East and elsewhere, Pitt (they're headed to the ACC) and Louisville will join the Huskies on the sidelines this season. The newest SEC members, Missouri and Texas A&M also won't participate in the Challenge to keep the numbers even.
It will be the second annual get-together for the conferences. In 2011, the Big East dominated, winning eight of the 12 games.

The University of Illinois Chamber Singers conducted by Andrew Megill will present a concert at St James Episcopal Cathedral, 65 E. Huron Street in Chicago. As part of the University's annual Baroque Festival, the concert will feature the Chamber Singers and guests performing the music of Heinrich Schütz, the most important German composer before J. S. Bach.
Schütz, inspired by the innovations of Venetian composers of the late 16th and early 17th centuries, revolutionized German music, introducing a new sense of dramatic contrast and marrying the sounds and meaning of poetic texts to musical gesture. Works to be performed span the entirety of Schütz's career and include his great masterpiece the Musikalische Exequien.
Joining the Chamber Singers for this performance are sopranos Laura Heimes and Rebecca Mariman (two of America's finest sopranos specializing in early music), ecco (the University of Illinois' faculty early music vocal ensemble), and an ensemble of period instruments. The concert is free to all, but a suggested donation of $20 will be gratefully accepted.

Julia and Rob's big day was filled with so much joy from beginning to end. The wedding perfectly matched their lighthearted and exuberant personalities. Jay from CityFlowerLA created amazing centerpieces that elevated the design of the private Santa Monica beach club and the arch was the perfect ceremony backdrop. Everything was beautifully crafted by Jay's team, who then repurposed flowers from the arch for the cake and the band's stage. Bob Gail's band was so entertaining and fun to work with! The guests had a blast dancing to their songs. Plus, who doesn't love a live band that can rap! We hope to team up with them again in the future. Thanks to Rob Greer for his photos allowing us to relive the couples special day.

Choosing the right Digital Commerce Partner for success
It's imperative you choose the right technical partner for your Digital eCommerce journey. Here at DeeperThanBlue, we work tirelessly with our clients through all the challenges businesses face in today's digital world, turning them into revenue generating opportunities and building a solid foundation for business growth.
Having years of high profile success delivering both bespoke and large-scale eCommerce solutions to some of the biggest brands with the most complex and demanding infrastructures, we've outlined five points to consider when looking to select a new business partner.
Platform Experience
A partner should be a trusted advisor. The more experience an eCommerce solutions partner has in different technologies, the better advice they can give you to help you resolve your individual challenges.
Validate your potential partners credibility with accreditations across multiple technology solutions. They must possess deep technical and commercial knowledge of multiple platforms, as well as their functionality, limitations, the other technologies they interoperate with, and the challenges plus the best practices associated with them, is invaluable to an eCommerce solutions partnership.
eCommerce is challenging every single day. The true test of a partner is how they deal with obstacles. A service partner with experience in handling tough problems successfully will have confidence in their ability to resolve issues, especially those they have faced before.
Ensure your potential suitors provide you with multiple references from previous relationships and where possible have them introduce you to their clients for private, unbiased feedback to be given in private separate from the partner being involved in the actual call.
Good Chemistry, Great Governance
A friendly sales journey during the selection process can fade when the real work begins. It isn't the pre-sales team you work with for the length of a partnership, it is all the other areas of your potential partners service teams, project managers, technical support, legal & finance etc. Ask to talk to and ideally meet with the people who will be working with you on a daily basis. If you can build a good relationship with those parts of your partners business ahead of making your final decision, it will help confirm with confidence you may have found your perfect eCommerce life partner.
If you can establish a rapport with these people early, it will stand you in good stead.
The Courage to Say 'No'
Nobody likes to be told 'no', but it's vital your partner does so when they feel you are making an incorrect decision. After all, you have partnered with them to be your trusted advisor, as part of this they must know when to turn down additional project activity and revenue for work they do not believe is the best course of action for your business. Keeping this in mind during your design proposal stage will enable you to understand the ethics of your potential partner.
Buy-in to Your Success
Partners that work together can do wonderful things – especially when they succeed or fail together! Your partner will care about the success of your business as much as you do when their success is dependent on yours, therefore arguments over price or timeframes can be counterproductive.
One of the most valuable traits of a good partner is arguably not commercial. It is providing another voice to listen to when making important technical decisions, a pair of trusted eyes to review something you're unsure about, and providing industry knowledge in resolving challenges. Identify what your supplier deems a successful project, high-cost and short timeframes, or the right solution delivered in the right time.
The road to success is fraught with risk, unexpected issues and challenges. It is your partners obligations to foresee these and act ahead of time to avoid them, laying a clear path for successful engagement delivery.
If you share values, keep each other honest and align aspirations, you can face whatever the digital world throws at you standing side-by-side with your technical partner.

NASSAU – Angry home owners in Jubilee Gardens yesterday expressed disgust and concern that neither the Progressive Liberal Party nor the Free National Movement have done enough to prevent the frequent fires at the New Providence Landfill that have caused some of them to develop respiratory issues.
Their comments came as a massive fire was raging at the landfill, which officials believe was started by a smaller bush fire off Fire Trail Road that spread to the city dump. The fire blanketed Jubilee Gardens and surrounding areas in thick, black smoke and threatened several homes, prompting officials to order an evacuation of the area.
However, not everyone was willing to leave their homes.
One resident Muris Campbell, who refused to evacuate, told The Tribune she has hurricane impact windows and will stay in her home to protect her property. However, she was concerned that officers, who barricaded the entrance to the subdivision, would not let her return to her home to assist her grandchildren, who were in the house and scared.
"I need to get my grandkids. Three of them are in there, one is 11 and one is nine. I have been here from the time [former Prime Minister] Hubert Ingraham cut the ribbon," Campbell said.
"Everyone knows how this place is, they see how it looks when the dump catch on fire. They see what we going through. No one is hearing us, no one is helping us. Where must I go if I evacuate, who will help you? Everyone don't have people to help. I soon retire and I must stay home to this? No one helping you.
"When you speak out what will happen? I haven't heard from anyone in the house, I can hardly talk. I wish one of these people come to my door and ask for my vote, they will get what they come for," she said.
Another resident Carton Duvalier said he developed respiratory issues because of the frequent smoke and he is "pissed off" that no one seems to care.
"No one has done anything for us, the issue is poor management on all these governments," he said. "The dump was here before we came here, we moved here in 1996 and the dump was here and they continued to build and now people can look out their back window and see the dump.
"I developed respiratory issues because of this. When I went to the doctor because I couldn't breathe properly he asked me where I live, I say I live Jubilee Gardens and the doctor say that's why I have problems. Everyday, when it isn't the smoke, it's the scent. Come on, something have to done about it. I blame the government, the PLP, the FNM and the residents because we sit here and we suck it up and do nothing. People lives being threatened, people homes being threatened – imagine the kids that have to sleep in this. This is ridiculous and I am pissed off," Duvalier added.
Member of Parliament for Tall Pines, Leslie Miller said the government "has to find the answer".
He said his constituents cannot continue to suffer but the solution is not to move the dump.
"The foreign people that was here gone, and now the dump is back in the government hands," said Miller, who tried to help the situation by pouring water on smouldering areas in Jubilee Gardens. "Hopefully they do something quick, but the answer is not to move the dump, a minimum for the dump is 200 acres of land, there is nowhere in New Providence that is close to that to put up a new dump, we have to run this properly and keep the stragglers out. For the last 30 years people have been starting these fires intentionally.
"Some people just sick and they like fire and with this wind there is nothing you can do but move out of your home because of the smoke. If someone decides they are going to light a fire at the dump, what can you do? It's arson and it happens from time to time, people get mad and light the dump. There is nothing you can do about it, you cannot put up a new dump, you just have to manage it better and have better security. I feel sorry for these people, this is horrendous."
Miller claims two homes caught fire but were extinguished by residents immediately.
Fire Chief Superintendent Walter Evans said no lives were lost and he had no reports of homes being destroyed or damaged by the blaze up to press time, however he said several homes were threatened. He could not say how many residents were evacuated.
He said police and fire services were also fighting blazes in other areas: near Loyola Hall, the National Emergency Management Agency and the Bahamas Youth Camp, which are all on Gladstone Road and another fire on Charles Saunders Highway.
The city dump has been plagued with recurring fires for a number of years. Renew Bahamas was engaged by the government in 2014 to manage the landfill and help address the matter, however the company suspended its services in the aftermath of Hurricane Matthew.
Since then, The Waste Resources Development Group (WRDG), a consortium of ten Bahamian waste management groups, has submitted a proposal to take over the operations at the landfill. Yesterday Prime Minister Perry Christie confirmed that two companies, both Bahamian, have submitted bids to run the dump. Christie, who toured the affected areas, said the matter should be resolved shortly.
Residents who live in Jubilee Gardens and surrounding areas were advised by the government to evacuate, with the Kendal Isaacs Gym being a designated shelter for anyone displaced by the fire.
"The National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) has activated its emergency plan and all available resources have been mobilized," a statement from the Office of the Prime Minister said.
"Although it is too early to be certain, at first sight it appears that a number of fires were started in the area. Because of the high winds currently being experienced on New Providence, it appears that at least one of those fires blew across the boundary and ignited the public landfill," the statement added.
The statement also said the government will reach out to international partners for assistance, if and when the situation
warrants it.

Janna Shepherd
Member #:2886596 | Oily Since: 2015
My Personal Journey:
My name is Janna and I LOVE family, friends, coffee, and essential oils.
I was one of those super skeptics when it came to essential oils. I'm a researcher and need to know everything about something before I dive in. Eventually I gave them a go while pregnant with Shona, and I'm so glad I did. Almost three years later, I have learned SO much! We use them for everything: to survive springtime, ease stress, help acne, stop itching from bug bites, clean our house, soothe sore throats, help emotional issues, and so much more :)
One of my main hesitations when getting started was not knowing how essential oils can be used. Thankfully, I fell into the best community of like-minded women, mothers and people who are all on this journey together. We always have ongoing education, classes, resources and help to get the most out of your essential oils.
Everyone in our group is at a different stage of their wellness journey. Some of us have been using essential oils for years, while many are just getting started. We're all just striving to be better with our choices and what we are using for our family's health. I would love to help you get started!
I'd love to welcome you as a Modern Oiler!

I'm really psyched about this episode, not only because my guest Zeke Lau is the type of guy that you can't help but really like right off the bat, but also because he is truly one of the best surfers on the planet. He travels the world to compete in the World Surf League's Championship Tour, where only an elite group of the top 36 surfers in the world get the chance at a world title.
The Native Hawaiian is soft spoken and as humble as they come, and at the same time has more drive to be the very best than most people I've ever met. The fire in his belly burns deep, and you can feel it and hear it when he talks about both the road that has gotten him to where he is, and the path ahead to make himself the world champion.
Zeke has also done a pretty damn good job at building his personal brand. He's been written
about in various major news and media outlets and has landed lucrative sponsorships from companies like Volcom, Dakine, Quicksilver, DC Shoes, Rock Star Energy, and Channel Island Surfboards.
Oh yeah, and there must be something in the water in Hawaii, because he grew up rubbing elbows with 2 NFL superstars, one of which just won the superbowl.

REDOUTÉ, Pierre-Joseph (1759-1840)
Rosa Gallica caerulea. Rosier de Provins à feuilles bleuâtres
[Paris: Firmin Didot], 1817-1824. Stipple engraving printed in black, on ochre-tinted paper, by Eug. Talbaux, after Redouté, printed by Rémond. Very good condition. Sheet size: 14 x 10 1/2 inches.
A very rare uncoloured 'connoisseur's' impression on ochre-tinted paper from the first edition of 'Les Roses': Redouté's most famous work, and perhaps the most celebrated flower book of all time
The present uncoloured plate was printed on ochre paper as it was realized that this gave a pleasing effect. The ochre background enhances the subtle gradations of tone achieved using the stipple engraving technique and gives a unique opportunity to appreciate the unrivalled artistry of both Pierre-Joseph Redouté himself and the master-craftsman he employed to translate his watercolour into a print of the highest quality. Redouté learned, whilst on a visit to London, that the most successful impressions of stipple engravings came from well-used plates. A number of black plates would thus be struck to take the edge off the plate before printing in colours. Redouté's printers struck black impressions - always on a paper with a distinct ochre tint - from the plates, and these early impressions were then combined with later colour-printed examples to form the de luxe issues of 'Les Roses'.
Redouté's 'Les Roses' was issued in four formats: a large paper folio with coloured plates, a large paper folio with the plates in two states, folio with coloured plates, and folio with the plates in two states (the present plate comes from this final de luxe form). Gavin Bridson and Donald Wendel, in their magisterial 'Printmaking in the service of botany' catalogue (Hunt Institute for Botanical Documentation, 1986, item 25) noted that Redouté 'For the interest of connoisseurs' included `a set of black plates as a parallel series to the usual color-printed versions' in 'special issues' of both the present work and his earlier 'Les Liliacées'. The number of these special issues that were produced is unfortunately not recorded but to judge from auction records over the past twenty-five years they are extremely rare: only four complete sets of 'Les Roses' in this format are recorded. The present print therefore comes from an edition that was severely limited, and is certainly much rarer than its colour-printed equivalent.
Cf. Cleveland Collections 807; cf. Dunthorne 232; cf. Hunt Redoutéana 19; cf. Hunt, Printmaking in the Service of Botany 25; cf. Nissen BBI 1599; cf. Pritzel 7455; cf. Ray French 89; cf. Stafleu and Cowan 8748.

This week's video revisits one of my first video posts here on youtube, where I recorded a short version of JJ Johnson's great composition "Judy
Here however, I'm featuring one of my great friends and fellow trombonists: Joe McDonough! Joe and I were pursuing our Masters degrees at Juilliard at the same time, and both studying with the great Steve Turre.
For a while, we had a co-led two trombone quintet that celebrated the two trombone tradition started by JJ Johnson and Kai Winding. We recorded a few tracks back in 2013, and I think we just might release some of those very soon… stay tuned!

Tempeh Barbecue Salad with Pineapple and Portobello Mushrooms
Come September we Virginians tend to have an urge to slather everything in sight in BBQ. It's an homage to Summer's end. For only a few more weeks will we have the glorious weather that makes barbeque so damn delicious. Ok, in Virginia, most of that BBQ ends up prancing along grilled pork or chicken breasts. And the fatty aspects of meat + the texture + the sugary sauce DO make for a good combo. That's why in this dish I have incorporate three different textural elements, good fats, and juicy Kansas BBQ. But why eat cute little piggies and (admittedly doofy) cluckers when you could get your protein and vitamins in a totally alternative & rock & roll way?
MUNCH ON THIS: Tempeh is the rock star of the soy world. Why? Tempeh is waaaaay high in protein, packed with B-Vitamins, highly digestible, and even has some anti-biotic qualities. Natives of Indonesia, where tempeh originated, are well aware of tempeh's anti-biotic effects and they consider it a great medicine to ward off dysentery. Tempeh is also high in manganese and fiber. It has a nutty flavor, somewhere in between bread and fresh mushrooms. Some would call it bland. And... well... they would be right. BUT tempeh can be delish when cooked properly. There are a number of ways to cook tempeh, including simply sauteing it in some olive oil + maple syrup + cayenne and then dipping it in sauces like proteiny french fries. You can grill it, steam it, fry it, bake it, eat it "raw" with hummus, crumble it into salads, or throw it at your favorite vegan friend (they will be thankful, even if it hurts). I personally find that the best ways to prepare tempeh involve either steaming it before adding seasonings or marinating it in a salt water bath for 8 hours or more before cooking it. That way the seasonings/sauces are fully absorbed into the meat of the tempeh cake, soaking all the way through to the center.
In this recipe I chose to meld the nutty texture of tempeh with chunks of sweet, ripe pineapple and strips of succulent portobello mushrooms. I just couldn't resist the pineapple and mushrooms when I saw them at market. They were just SO BEAUTIFUL. Is it weird that I think food is the most exciting thing to photograph? I love it. And speaking of beautiful food photography you should check out this brain-mashingly amazing food blog: Sprouted Kitchen. Their photographs make me want to be a better human being.
I also decided to go ahead and use a pre-prepped barbecue sauce. I know, it's kind of like cheating. But the Trader Joe's "Bold & Smokey Kansas City Style BBQ" sauce is so good and affordable that I just had to use it. And it works perfectly. Besides, making barbecue sauce is a project all on its own.
I do believe I have made this dish for dinner three times this week. The punchy/spicy arugula, sweet BBQ, and creamy avocado combo is heaven. Oh and BY THE BY your lover will love this saucy tangy sweet nutritious goodness. This is good messy picnic date food. It makes you look like a kitchen goddess (or god). Which, of course, you are!
Pineapple, Portobello, & Tempeh BBQ Salad
serves 8
3 cloves garlic, chopped finely
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil (or coconut oil)
8 oz tempeh (1 package), cut into squares
3/4 cup white wine
2 teaspoons salt
1 medium ripe pineapple, peeled, cored, and chopped into 1 inch cubes.
5 large portobello caps, sliced thickly
2/3 cups Kansas City style BBQ sauce
3 cups organic or wild arugula
1 avocado, sliced lengthwise, to garnish
On your stove top, heat a large sauce pan to medium heat. Once hot, pour about half of your olive oil into the pan. Toss in the garlic, and saute for 2 minutes or until fragrant and browning. Add tempeh, 1/2 cup of the white wine, sliced mushrooms, and 2 teaspoons of the salt. Cover and let steam for 15 minutes.
When all of the liquids have evaporated, add BBQ sauce, remaining white wine, and pineapple chunks. Stir gently to incorporate the sauce. Cover and let cook for another 15 minutes.
Remove the top from the sauce pan and let the mixture caramelize on medium-high heat. Add the rest of the olive oil to the pan, stirring gently every so often. Once the sauce has reduced and the tempeh & pineapple start to have some crisp bits, remove the pan from heat.
In a large bowl, toss arugula with olive oil, a pinch of salt and black pepper. When ready to serve, pour the hot barbecue dish over the arugula. Arrange your avocado over the top of your dish. Serve hot.

I ordered a Wall-e artpiece (paint marker medium) for my fiance's birthday. It was not only incredibly beautiful, but it arrived early and in excellent condition. Catie has been a friend for a few years now, but for those who don't know her personally and are thinking about ordering from her: she is someone who is so pleasant to work with you'll want to be her friend! Catie is such a creative, talented artist which really helped me in the early stages of deciding what we wanted the artpiece to look like. I plan to order from her again for our wedding next year. :)

Traditionally, Risk Managers in the hotel and hospitality sector have been engaged more in dealing with property risks, reputation risks/brand management and political risks. More recently pandemics and terrorism have engaged attention of the hotel industry. The hotel and hospitality industry is increasingly being exposed to a number of new risks which fall outside the ambit of the traditional risk categories. Some of these include risks related to mixed-use construction, medical spas (spas within hotels that offer botox, laser resurfacing, etc.) and cyber risks dealing with credit card data and personal information housed on hotel keycards. Product liability risks stemming from the sales of branded products such as bedding and spa items are also considered to be growing exposures.

This is the second time that we've used Alex's services. His professionalism and responsiveness make him the stand out property professional in Harrogate. Nothing is too much trouble, from arranging a decorator to do some final touch ups to negotiating a delicate problem with a lease, Alex was brilliant.

An excellent professional service from Alex from start to finish. He achieved a speedy, hassle-free off-market sale of my commercial premises in a short period of time. He was diligent and proactive throughout the sale process and delivered a faultless outcome.

Working with Alex has been an absolute pleasure to say the least. Illustrating years of knowledge that he has gained throughout his experience of working in the property industry Alex has made what normally could be a stressful process a breeze- the transaction ran smoothly from start to finish, was hands on throughout and was easy to contact as and when needed. I couldn't recommend his services enough.

Alex helped us to find our first flat and I cannot recommend his services highly enough. He helped us through every step of the purchase of our property: working out what our requirements were, narrowing down and viewing a selection of matches, and ultimately securing a flat that we are very happy with.As first time buyers, we naturally had a lot of questions throughout the process, and Alex was extremely helpful and always available to talk things through. Highly recommended, a great service all round.

If you are struggling with your estate agent or had a bad experience in the past selling your home then you should get in touch with Alex. He will help you choose the right estate agent for you and get the best out them by liaising with them making sure they are doing all they can for you. The best part is the estate agents pays for Alex not you.

With the success of Uber — and the prevalence of people using the ride-sharing company to get around — it was only natural that Hollywood would get in on the action.
Unfortunately for Universal and Fox, both major studios unwittingly offered up loads of cash for comedy scripts about Uber drivers within the same 24-hour period, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
The industry site reports Fox paid "mid-six figures" for the comedy Stuber, which is set during one night in the life of an Uber driver who picks up "a grizzled cop working the most dangerous case of his career."
Unbeknownst to Fox, the Tripper Clancy authored script will be competing with a comedy that is attached to Will Ferrell, and was purchased by Universal for seven figures just a day before.
The Universal project, which is still unnamed, will star Ferrell as an Uber driver "stuck with a deranged escaped-convict passenger."
Sources close to the deals told The Hollywood Reporter both film studios were unaware of the other's Uber project at the time of bidding.
United Talent Agency was behind the sale of both projects, which occurred earlier this month.
THR reports both Fox and Universal are feeling nervous about competing to get to the box office, but Fox may have a leg up, as Stuber's script is completed and the project is seeking talent.
Ferrell's Uber project, meanwhile, is still being written by Brendan O'Brien, who co-wrote Neighbors and its upcoming sequel, Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising.

Day 29 of the Omer - Humility and Compassion
Chesed in Hod - compassion in awe and humility.
I find it easy to see compassion coming from our sense of smallness - this allows us to sympathize easily.
We must proceed cautiously lest we get swept up in sympathizing and lose our ability to help out.
We need compassion for ourselves when in the place of grace in our smallness, so that we can avoid powerlessness.
Happy return to Chesed day 1 of week 5!

A World Worth Imagining can simply be a beautiful story-- a vision, that you share with your students, or it can be a jumping off point for discussions, activities and idea sharing. Together we can create a world worth imagining.
I have compiled and created some activities and lesson plans that you are welcome to use. They can be adapted for all ages, and can be used for your homeschool, classroom, family and friends.
If you are interested in having me facilitate a workshop or class, let's talk.
in the classroom
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." Margaret Mead
To build a global community that is based on respect and compassion, we must start by creating cultures in our smaller communities that share those same values and truths. As the school year starts, this is the time that we as educators can begin (or continue), to help guide our students in creating classroom communities that embody our visions for a world worth imagining. It is the chance for us to practice being great humans.
Lesson plan
This Earth Day tell a different kind of story, one with a different kind of message—
I invite you this Earth Day, to help inspire hope in our kids! A World Worth Imagining can help you do that.
You can mix and match activities to suit your time-frame, resources, and space. The possibilities are endless. If your time is limited, I suggest reading the story, followed by one of the Visioning Our Future activities and closing with an Honouring The Earth activity. I would definitely include a Connecting To The Wonder activity if I had the time and outdoor space!
Feel free to contact me with any questions.
Everyone dreams of a future they can look forward to!
Earth Day 2018, Thunder Bay, ON

It is always best to handle your finances well. No one wishes to be in a situation where he or she is faced with cash shortage or needs to access cash immediately. But this is a reality which can come up anytime.
Situations like payment for emergency medical bills, physician treatment, critical home repairs or sudden car breakdown, often calls for immediate funding help. Even if you have a regular source of income, it doesn't always guarantee financial stability.
People are looking for safe and convenient ways to help them out of their financial holes until payday. They rely upon other financial assistance. Some ask friends or family members to lend them money, take cash advance of their credit cards, sell things they need for extra cash, dip into their emergency fund, or do more extra work. This is also the reason why payday loans makes it as one of the best resource and fastest way to get cash advance.
Payday loans are quick, easily available financing system, designed for emergencies and other contingencies, which allows the borrower to take a short-term loan of small amounts. Your collateral is your job and your next paycheck. You'll get approved instantly and you'll can get cash in a short span of time. There are no credit checks, bank account verification or complying with needed documents.
There are many online payday lenders, but you must consider the reputation of the company carefully. You can opt for a safe and convenient loan from ACE Cash Express! You can apply online or in person at their cash express location.
Keep in mind that payday loans offers both pros and cons. It is a cost-effective financial emergency cash option, just make sure that you are disciplined, and you understand what you're getting into before you apply for one. Remember that "it's not free money" and you have to pay it back.

Now and Not Yet
I enjoy summer holidays and travels... The excitement of planning a trip to visit family or friends, jumping into the car or flying off to some exotic destination. So much fun. As kids we inevitably asked Dad and Mom the question, "are we there yet?" I used to take our youth group on trips when pastoring in Williams Lake. They too would ask the same question and I would always reply "10 more minutes." Life can be like that at times. We know that we have begun a journey but we have not yet reached our final destination. Here are a few examples of being in the "now but not yet"; schooling… dating… employment… to name a few. The same is true of our spiritual journey in life. We are living "in between" the times. We are aware of our Christian faith as we walk through life and yet heaven seems so far away.
Here are a few of Scriptural examples of living "in between":
- The most obvious example is that of two gardens, the Garden of Eden (Gen 1-3) and the Garden in Rev 22:1-2. Mankind now lives in-between paradise lost and paradise restored.
- Nehemiah had a "not and not yet" experience. He had a vision to rebuild the city of Jerusalem but he had to work and wait for the restoration.
- Old Testament followed by 400 years of silence, then the New Testament. The Jewish people were waiting… Luke 2:25-32. Simeon was waiting, devout and righteous.
- Peter lived in this kind of limbo because of what had happened at the time of Jesus' death and Peter's denial of Jesus. Peter was heart broken. And yet he experiences Jesus' resurrection and sees hope restored, but he was still in-between and not knowing what to do, so he goes back to fishing…
The Kingdom of God
Continuing with the "not and not yet" thought, we must ask ourselves this question, "Is the kingdom of God present and experiential today or it is a future reality to be hoped for? The quick and easy answer is yes, both aspects of the question are true. Some "kingdom encounters" are experienced today while we still live under the curse of sin and death. However we know that Jesus is our Soon Coming King who will fully restore the Kingdom to his Father.
All we have to do is to look at the ministry of Jesus to come to a fuller understanding.
- Jesus came preaching - "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near" (Matt 4:17).
- Jesus tells the Pharisees - "The kingdom of God does not come with your careful observation, 21 nor will people say, 'Here it is,' or 'There it is,' because the kingdom of God is within you" (Luke 17:20–21). In other words, Jesus the King, brings the kingdom.
- There are also passages that make it very clear that the kingdom is not yet present. For example, in Luke 19:11-12, Jesus tells a parable to make the point that the kingdom is not yet here. The people thought he was about to make his move and set up his kingdom in Jerusalem. "While they were listening to this, he went on to tell them a parable, because he was near Jerusalem and the people thought that the kingdom of God was going to appear at once. 12 He said: "A man of noble birth went to a distant country to have himself appointed king and then to return" (Luke 19:11–12). The message of this parable is simple, the kingdom is not coming that way now—it would be a long time in the future.
A word picture of being in the "now and not yet…"
I believe there is a contemporary example of this in-between reality right here in Saskatoon. I do not have the full understanding prophetically of the picture of the the Victoria Street Bridge. But I do have some thoughts that I want to share in light of this picture with us to.
- The bridge had served its purpose but is now being rebuilt due to being old and rusty.
- Some of the bridges foundation is being used for the future bridge.
- At the moment it is not a bridge, some day it will be a bridge.
When we apply this word picture to the church I find myself getting excited for the future. The church is the church and has a purpose but there are times that things need to be rebuilt. I see the Courts of Praise being in-between what God intends us to be. We are like the bridge without any ends. We are waiting for Jesus to add to the bridge so that we can fulfill all that God has purposed. We are safe on the bridge as long as we don't try to move to far one way or the other. We don't throw out the bridge or the church, but prayerfully and patiently trust God to empower his church once again. Being under construction is a good thing.
What do the missing ends represent? I have prayed about this and several thoughts come to mind. I was talking to a friend this past week about the spiritual meaning behind the Victoria Street Bridge and its construction. He stated quickly the missing ends are the "apostolic and prophetic" ministries. We also talked about the missing ends being leadership being restored and finances being released. Practically, a bridge with no ends is not a bridge at all; with the ends missing some people can become content or safe in their little bubble; this is not good. Once missing platforms are rebuilt the true fulfillment of the bridge is realized.
In Conclusion
We live in a day where the kingdom of God has come in part, it is here now. The Scripture tells us "having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, 14 who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession—to the praise of his glory" (Eph 1:13-14). We are told to pray "your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven…" I believe it is God's desire to release his kingdom on earth now but in part or in a measure of his glory. However, one day when Jesus returns the fulness of his KINGDOM will be finalized. The Second Coming will mark a new era of wonders and awes, new heavens and a new earth.
Let's be reminded that in the last days - the in-between times - scoffers will come (2 Pet 3:3).
Let's be reminded one day is as a thousand years and a thousand years like a day (2 Pet 3:8). We must carry God's perspective...
Let's be reminded that the Lord is not slow in keeping his promise but patient. The heart of God does not desire any to perish but for everyone to come to repentance (2 Pet 3:9).
Let's understand that the Day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night (2 Pet 3:10).
So then, in the in-between times, what kind of people should we be? Followers of Jesus are called to live holy and godly lives (2 Pet 3:11).

Ever wonder what your teenager is giggling at as she swipes and types away on her phone for what seems an eternity?
Or what your son is so hypnotised by with his headphones glued so tightly to his ears that he hasn't noticed his fingers and tablet have melded into one unit? Barely looking up, they are most likely oblivious to your existence during these moments. Well, apart from when they ask if dinner is ready.
Don't get me wrong, parents are no strangers to the world of constant email checking, status updates, Pinterest pinning, group texts, Netflix binging, after work pings, dings and rings. The list goes on. Everything is at our fingertips and that can be great, but let's face it – it's time to unplug; and ideally un-plug as a family.
With the cold wintry days behind us (let's hope!) and the sun beckoning us to come out and play, it's time we put aside our gadgets and reconnect with each other. Good ol' face-to-face human contact and one of the best ways to do this is to explore nature's very own playground.
There is no shortage of family activity holidays in Europe but finding a place that offers exciting adventures in a beautiful setting is important.
Croatia is one of those ideal places with its rustic coastline, spectacular mountains & turquoise waters. The country's diverse terrain provides the perfect platform for adventure holidays for teenagers as well as the teen spirit in all of us.
Green World Holiday's Croatia Family Adventure holiday programs offer a host of fun activities – from sea kayaking, rafting, climbing, tubing to zip lining and even island hopping; and if you or your teenager is up for a challenge you can try activities like canyoning which will bring out that inner competitive nature. Then there's the activity of sitting back, slowing down and taking in the stunning scenery that surrounds you. You're spoilt for choice here.
Slovenia is another one of those picturesque places where one will be so intoxicated by it's sheer natural beauty, you'll forget you even owned a phone. Known for it's majestic mountains and vibrant green lakes and rivers as well as its lively culture, the possibilities of thrilling activities in Slovenia are endless.
Our Slovenia Family Adventure provides just that; incredibly fun experiences and challenges; your children won't want to leave and neither will you. You'll think you've stepped into a fairy tale land and actually you have – it's called Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia. But instead of slaying dragons, you'll be Stand Up Paddle boarding or kayaking on the river – way more impressive.
It is precisely these types of family adventure holidays in Croatia and Slovenia that enhance your bond as a family and allow you to relish in the gift of nature. Where spontaneous moments and enjoying each other's company becomes natural once again
This time, when you see your teenager giggle, it's because they've just been drenched by white water and when your son has that hypnotised look again, it's because of the mesmerising beauty of the cascading waterfall not his ipad. Whatever that magic moment is; we are sure nature will beat technology; after all the best cameras are in our minds not in our phones.
