Back in February, we told you about the murder of Larissa Tiffany-Schiess, whose body was found after firefighters responded to a blaze at her Fountain home.
Investigators quickly determined that the flames hadn't killed Tiffany-Schiess and began investigating the case as a homicide.
Her former boyfriend, Thomas Turley, was subsequently arrested and charged with the crime, to which he sort of admitted before denying any involvement in, among other things, slashing her throat before setting the conflagration.
Now, however, Turley has pleaded guilty in the case.
As we've reported, the incident took place on the 900 block of South Candlestar Loop, an area captured in the following interactive graphic. If you have problems seeing it, click "View Larger Map."
The first tweet from the Fountain Fire Department about the incident, which was reported around 2:30 a.m. on February 4, gives no indication that the home would turn into a crime scene.
Soon thereafter, however, Tiffany-Schiess's body was discovered, and as KOAA-TV noted, the fire was quickly deemed suspicious.
Here's a KOAA image from the scene....
...plus one shot...
...and another....
...as well as a third shot later that morning....
...courtesy of a news crew from KKTV.
The victim was subsequently identified as Tiffany-Schiess, whose Facebook page pointed out that she graduated from Ellicott High School and worked as a PDA Tech rep for T-Mobile. Her photo gallery included a few images of her, including this one....
...but the majority of pics featured dogs (she was a member of numerous animal-related groups), as well as a shot of her baby sister.
Initially, police were looking for an individual described only as a "person of interest" in the case — and the search for Tiffany-Schiess's missing 2006 Suzuki ended when the vehicle was located in Pueblo.
The man who brought it there was Turley, who reportedly checked into a Pueblo motel after his girlfriend's death. He was found with Tiffany-Schiess's phone and other belongings in his possession.
At an April hearing to determine if there was enough evidence for the case against Turley to move forward, prosecutors unveiled more grisly details about the slaying. According to KOAA, they revealed that Tiffany-Schiess had been beaten and strangled before her throat was cut. At that point, the fire was set, and testimony stated that her remains smelled strongly of an accelerant such as gasoline.
Also noted during the court appearance: Turley allegedly told investigators, "I got her killed" before backtracking and arguing that someone else must have killed Tiffany-Schiess.
That tune has changed. Fox21 now confirms that Turley has pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and first-degree arson. He'll be sentenced in December.
Look below to see Turley's booking photos, followed by the KOAA report from April. In the meantime, our sincere condolences to the friends, family and loved ones of Larissa Tiffany-Schiess.

April is autism awareness month, and thanks to Autism Speaks and the international autism community, which hosts a Light It Up Blue campaign, worldwide awareness is heightened and money is raised. To date, 28,195 actions have been taken that will shine a light on autism come April 2, 2014.
Following a recent report released by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), autism awareness is more important than ever. The report cites that autism rates have increased by 30 percent since the CDC's last estimation in 2012. At that time, one in every 88 children in the United States suffered from the condition. Now, the CDC estimates that one in every 68 children in the United States are suffering from autism, which equals approximately 1.2 million Americans under the age of 21. Those numbers are nothing short of staggering and they help show why it is so important to participate in the Light It Up Blue campaign to heighten autism awareness.
No tests are available to definitively diagnose autism. Instead, physicians simply make a judgment call based on a child's behavior. In addition, the cause of the disease remains unknown; however, researchers suggest they are getting closer to uncovering the true origin of the condition. A recent study was conducted on brain tissue obtained from the Harvard Brain Tissue Resource Center and the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. The brain tissue, in the form of frozen cubes, was taken from children who had died between the ages of two and 15-years-old.
Three different areas of the brain, the posterior superior temporal cortex, dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, and the occipital cortex, which are responsible for cognition and reasoning, were studied in 11 children who had autism and 11 children of typical development. Gene markers were used to determine if the brain tissue samples had developed into six different layers.
In all but one of the samples taken from children known to have had autism, researchers found patches of tissue that was missing layers. Researchers say this new information suggests that autism actually starts in utero. Ed Lien with the Allen Institute for Brain Science in Seattle said the data gathered was consistent with "an early prenatal origin of autism."
As scientists continue to search for a cause, more awareness is needed. Around the world, hundreds of thousands of people participate in the Light It Up Blue campaign in an effort to heighten autism awareness.
How can people get involved? To light it up blue on April 2, Autism Speaks suggest that people wear the color blue, distribute information about autism, light up your home and office using the color blue, and change the theme on your website. People can also register with Autism Speaks and host a fundraiser or simply donate to the cause. In addition, teachers can get their students involved. For example, they could sponsor a light it up blue day by having a bake sale and then donate the proceeds to Autism Speaks.
The possibilities are endless and no matter what you do to light it up blue, the important thing is to just get involved and support the cause so that autism awareness can he heightened.

Don't call it a comeback more like a refresher. I started this blog originally share my journey as I found myself WELL TADA!! And although not perfect because no ones life is I'm here once again to share my learning's in hope to help you. I've come a long way through growing up way before my time, divorced parents, depression, manipulative relationships, the wrong crowd, no spiritual guidance, a weak support system. To married, amazing friends, overcoming fears, exploring what spiritually calls me, my confidence is better than ever, and overall I have found my purpose and I am a happy work in progress!
This post originally was a very long and in depth piece but I figured I would break it down into segments to make it more pleasurable to read. So consider this an overview. You're welcome
My Purpose: I have found my purpose and at this point can't stop talking about it. My purpose is to show you in multiple ways how to truly love yourself and find your purpose in life. Show you that you have all the tools to find your sought out answers within you.
Health & wellness: My journey to being "vegan" (I am not searching for a title but I find that this is the best way to describe to the average person the lifestyle I am trying to achieve) is still on going. I get a little closer each month. I am learning to view food as a necessity "eat to live not live to eat". I find and try so many earth grown gifts that we aren't taught so I am sharing what has helped me in so many ways than one. Meditation has helped me turn into the girl who always has a resting bitch face to a 20% of the time I have a resting bitch face lol (I told you I am not perfect I'm working on it). I make it my mission to do some type of physical movement and I am working on making yoga a part of my daily routine. Overall lifestyle change that has not only helped me physically but mentally and I like to believe it helps spiritually as well.
Relationships: First with myself I have always been confident but I had several areas of low self esteem now I have accepted I have a double chin, that I have a jiggly belly, and I have a small butt, amongst a whole list of things but never the less I know I am beautiful I love all of me. Acknowledging and embracing my "flaws" I can be comfortable in my skin and work towards bettering them. With my husband, we recently made 5 years married this past January 8 years total we have gotten so much better with our communication which has cut out a lot of the petty disagreements. ( but trust they still exist) We bought our first house last year and now we are working on making ourselves more financially stable to start thinking about kids ( insert big cheesy smile here).My friends well I had to learn who were the snakes and how to be alone for a while and I asked God to bring me the right people in my corner and I have nothing short of amazing people surrounding me we do nothing but uplift each other.
For the most part I have balance, I know who I am, and what I want and trust me I am going for it. And I want to help you reading this feel happy and confident in your life and skin as well.
Overall as you can see I'm still giving you the real on life but from a better space and mindset. Don't think I am painting a perfect happy picture because I still struggle and instead of feeling as if the world is out to get me I learned to look at things different, learn, and grow so for the most part things are coming together well.
At this time the tabs are bare but the information that will flood them soon will be timeless resourceful pieces to help be a better you. I hope you enjoy and if you haven't already go ahead and subscribe. Comment what you would like to see. I can't wait to hare with you the growth I have experienced!
Love always,

In construction engineering, a schedule's input data, which is usually not exactly known in the planning phase, is considered deterministic when generating the schedule. As a result, construction schedules become unreliable and deadlines are often not met. While the optimization of construction schedules with respect to costs and makespan has been a matter of research in the past decades, the optimization of the robustness of construction schedules has received little attention. In this paper, the effects of uncertainties inherent to the input data of construction schedules are discussed. Possibilities are investigated to improve the reliability of construction schedules by considering alternative processes for certain tasks and by identifying the combination of processes generating the most robust schedule with respect to the makespan of a construction project.

Emotions can run high in divorce. Difficult disputes over important matters such as the division of marital property, child custody and child support, alimony (also known as spousal support) and other issues can make feelings run even hotter.
Mediation might fit your divorce better than litigation
Study: Household chores disputes factor in 25 percent of divorces
Who is going to do the dishes, mow the yard and clean the cat litter? Who is going to vacuum the living room and who is taking care of laundry? Who is going grocery shopping and who is undertaking spring cleaning? Unsurprisingly, questions over household chores are often the source of conflict in marriage.
Study: genetics a significant factor in divorce
If you look back in time at your parents, grandparents and beyond, do you see a history of long marriages or do you see stories of separations and divorces? According to a new study, your family narrative is an indication that genetics plays a significant role in whether or not you will get a divorce and whether your offspring will one day be sitting down with family law attorneys to discuss property division, child custody and related matters.
3 tips for facing a high-asset divorce in Georgia
Divorce is difficult, no matter how high or low your income may be. However, a high-asset divorce poses particular challenges that are important for you to understand if you are part of a couple with a high net worth and are now facing divorce.
Who gets the art? Division of valuable assets in divorce
In the process of divorce, the court divides the property between the divorcing parties. This is no major revelation, and in concept this is a pretty simple operation: After determining the value of the various properties to be divided, the court separates the property between the two.

Engage parents with information about the Common Core that dispels the myths and helps to keep students interested.
"I can't help my child with this 'new' math!"
"That's not the way I learned it!"
"What is this stuff?"
Have you heard these comments from parents at your school or in your community? These comments likely have been made time and again since the introduction of mathematics standards over 20 years ago. But there's been a spike in such comments since the implementation of the Common Core math standards. Regardless of whether the comments are fueled by social media or traditional media, educators need to be armed with strategies for helping parents understand, navigate, and embrace the Common Core's mathematics content and practices.
Three strategies and accompanying action steps help school leaders and teachers to be proactive rather than reactive when addressing parent concerns about the Common Core math standards. While the examples in this article are embedded in elementary mathematics, the strategies and action steps apply to all K-12 settings. They are presented in Table 1 and further explained below.
Strategy #1: Educate parents on the truths of the Common Core.
While this may seem a no-brainer, the first step in addressing parent concerns is to enlighten them on what the Common Core math standards are really about. Recently, I noticed Figure 1 appear multiple times on social media, and I even saw it used in a local TV news segment on the Common Core. While I don't know the original source of this image, I definitely experienced frustration when I heard news anchors, friends, and family alike comment on the ridiculousness of this "Common Core math" or "the new way" in the image. The contrary is actually true. This is just math, not "Common Core math," and in fact, from a mathematical standpoint, "the new way" approach on the image demonstrates a deeper level of mathematical understanding than "the old-fashioned way" at the top of the image.
So, why was there so much uproar with thousands of people sharing this image on Facebook and Twitter? The top approach is the way that most of us learned subtraction, likely subtracting the ones digits and then the tens digits. The bottom approach is a "counting up" strategy from 12 to 32. The student adds 3 to 12 to get to 15, 5 to 15 to get to 20, 10 to 20 to get to 30 and finally 2 to 30 to get to 32. The student knows what has been added is actually the difference between these two numbers. The student should understand that subtraction can be represented by the distance between two numbers on a number line.
Figure 2 shows the corresponding number line representation for "the new way." The three action steps, described below, focus on giving parents specific, accurate information intended to eliminate their use of negative comments about the Common Core. This is important because negative comments, when spoken in the company of their children, can have negative implications on the children's attitudes towards mathematics.
Action step #1. Tell parents how Common Core math progresses across grade levels and that these progressions are based on research about how children learn math. Standards documents are not necessarily new to parents; all states had mathematics standards (and some still have their own) before the Common Core. However, parents need to understand how the Common Core math standards were written with specific attention to the progressions of same-topic standards across grade levels. While teaching parents how the standards progress for every mathematical topic is not necessary, educators should show them how the standards progress for a particular topic as a way of giving them a sense of the thinking invested in the development of the standards. By allocating a small amount of time at a school-sponsored event, such as Back to School Night or Math Night, for giving examples of how the Common Core math standards build upon knowledge developed in earlier grades, educators are arming parents with information that makes the Common Core more attractive. You also may post a blurb with similar information and explanation on your web site. (See Table 2 for an example of how the Common Core builds on the concept of place value from kindergarten through 2nd grade.) Keep explanations simple and emphasize how the standards were carefully developed.
Two resources can help prepare information for parents about standards progressions and were used in the development of Table 2. So called "progressions documents," which outline how the content progresses across grade levels, have been developed. These documents are available at: http://ime.math.arizona.edu/progressions/. Additionally, learning progressions information focusing on K-8 standards are at https://www.turnonccmath.net/. This online tool is a hexagon map that shows how content and student understanding progress within topics and across grade levels.
Action step #2. Inform parents about the Standards for Mathematical Practice (SMPs). Many parents are not aware of the Common Core's practice standards (see Table 3). These practices are strongly connected to the process standards set out by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (2000) upon which most states based at least part of their standards before the Common Core. However, processes typically took a back-burner position to the content. Since Common Core development, attention to practice standards has been explicit, likely because such practices have become part of high-stakes assessments. Parents need to understand the importance of these practices beyond assessment. Students skilled at these practices likely will be at an advantage for hiring. Employers want employees who can engage in problem solving and provide justification for solutions. Therefore, educating parents on the practices and their importance is an important and critical step.
Action step #3. Provide parents with URLs that give information about the Common Core from leading experts in mathematics education. Parents need guidance about where they can go for reliable information beyond what you provide them. A mathematics education group at Stanford University, led by Jo Boaler, has been explicitly addressing the truths of mathematics teaching, learning, and the Common Core for parents and teachers. Boaler released a video in June 2014 that focuses on understanding how the Common Core can be helpful in changing mathematics teaching and learning in the U.S. The URL for the video is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOOW0hQgVPQ. Boaler also has founded a nonprofit called YouCubed with the primary aim of providing K-12 math resources for parents and educators. The parent section of the nonprofit's web site can be found at http://youcubed.org/parents/
Strategy #2: Take advantage of the power of videos posted on your school/classroom web site and/or social media news feed.
Modern technology for accessing information can be a double-edged sword. With information literally at their fingertips, parents can develop very negative ideas about the Common Core and receive "help" from online sources of varying quality. On the other hand, since we can give parents information so easily through our school/classroom web sites and social media news feeds, we have the potential to transform parents' perceptions and understandings of the Common Core. Some of the swirling negativity is fueled by parents' lack of confidence in their own abilities to help their children in math. They feel that the way their children are learning math is so different than their own experiences. Short video clips can be a powerful way to help parents develop a better understanding of the Common Core's math standards and the content and practices.
Action step #1. Create short "help" videos on mathematics content. While there are existing videos on the web through such web sites as the Khan Academy, these videos may or may not be focused on mathematical understanding. I know at least four teachers in a local school district who have been creating their own videos using iPad apps that are posted on their web sites for parents to access. Imagine a video in which the teacher explains subtraction like the "new way" in Figure 1 and why it is important for students to be able to think of subtraction as the difference between two numbers on a number line. Or, imagine a video in which the teacher explains why it is important to think flexibly about a problem like 29 x 12. The video includes explanation about 29 x 12 — 29 groups of 12 — having the same value as 20 groups of 12 plus 9 groups of 12. And, the video may show an alternative way to think about 29 x 12 as 30 groups of 12 minus 1 group of 12.
Action step #2. Record and share videos of your students engaged in the mathematical practices. Many parents are apprehensive about math teaching and learning looking different than the traditional instruction they experienced where the teacher shares steps on how to perform a specific type of math problem and then students practice those steps on similar problems for classwork and homework. In traditional instruction the focus tends to be on helping students understand the procedures without attention to students' conceptual understanding.
The Common Core focuses on building students' conceptual understanding of the mathematics before teaching the procedures. Building conceptual understanding involves engaging in the Mathematical Practices, discussed earlier in this article and presented in Table 3. One example is to record a video of students engaged in explanation and justification of their mathematical ideas. Then share the video with parents via a secure web site or a private social media group. By seeing their children engaged in mathematical practices, parents are more likely to believe in the premises of the Common Core.
Strategy #3: Engage parents and community to build a math culture.
A critical step in parent buy-in is building a culture where mathematics is valued. Mathematics has been a discipline that people love or despise. We've all heard someone say, "I'm not a math person." Why is this statement accepted as humor in our culture when it's not socially acceptable to say the same thing about reading? As educators, we can collectively change the larger culture around mathematics by starting small at our own schools.
Action step #1. Publish a statement about the school's beliefs about and value for mathematics on the school web site and in the student handbook. Let it be known to parents, students, and the community that mathematics is an important part of school culture. One way to reach nearly every parent is to publish a statement on the school web site and in the student handbook. When I was a 6th-grade teacher, I heard many parents say, "He gets 'it' from me. I'm not good at math so that's why he is not good at math." I even heard teachers who taught other subjects make negative statements about mathematics in front of students. Based on Carol Dweck's (2006) research on mindset, we now know the dangers of imposing a "fixed mindset" on students. Dweck has found that people with a fixed mindset — those who believe their talents and abilities are not malleable — are less likely to reach potential. On the other hand, people are more likely to reach success if they have a "growth mindset," believing that talents and abilities can be developed and improved over time. As schools and teachers, we need to embrace the growth mindset about math, i.e., anyone can be good in math if they work hard. We need to communicate this belief to all stakeholders.
Action step #2. Invite parents and community members to be involved in problem solving. I know teachers at a local school who developed a "Video Problem of the Week" at their school. They invited community members and parents to video record a mathematical problem that related to their work. The problems were broadcast as part of the school news. Students became energized by the challenge of solving the problems from various occupations (e.g., carpenter, doctor, engineer, plumber), and, in turn, members of the entire school community, including parents, were talking about math with interest and enthusiasm.
As the debate continues about the Common Core, we must educate parents. Using the strategies and actions described in this article we can likely affect parents' understandings and perceptions. Hopefully, a ripple effect will help more people understand the background and goals of the Common Core's math standards. Ultimately, we hope for a different, more positive perception of mathematics in the U.S. than the current perception as a procedurally driven discipline that many loathe.

When I first launched Epic Rain I knew I wanted my company to be all about amazing fashion, empowering women, and highlighting the next women of country. I truly feel that when a woman feels confident about what she is wearing, it gives her confidence in what she is doing. I also believe when women stand together and empower one another truly amazing things can happen. I have always had a love for country music, so when thinking about the face of Epic Rain I always knew the direction I wanted to take would showcase powerful, talented women taking country music by storm. What started out as an idea for the face of my brand has turned into so much more. Instead, I was inspired to create an Epic Babes movement. If you are a country music fan I am sure you are aware of the lack of female artists currently being played on country radio. Did you know that in 2017 women only made up about 7.5% of country radio's top 20?! When I started to connect with these amazing women it made me realize that this is a major issue. How is it that these insanely talented, inspiring souls are being told that the public doesn't want to hear their art? I spend almost everyday in styling sessions and listening to those exact songs, this ART, that speaks to my soul. These women and their messages DESERVE to be heard. They NEED to be heard.
This is one of the reasons I am so excited to introduce my Epic Babes blog! Through this blog I want to take you on a journey to get to know these incredible women. I feel beyond blessed to style them and feel the world should not only hear what they have to say, but also the music they're creating. We will talk about their favorite Epic Rain styles, who inspires their own personal style, what influences their music, what's next in their careers, and so much more. These Epic Babes are women that deserve to be highlighted!
The blog will be launching with an amazing line up of some of the best and brightest women in the industry. I hope this blog inspires you to spread the word and share the music. Get ready to shop and to listen!

Duke Ellington Ellington At Newport on Numbered Edition Mono LP from Mobile Fidelity Silver Series
Pandemonium: Historic 1956 Live Set Triggered Spontaneous Audience Outburst That Fed Directly into Feel, Outcome of Performance
Ellington's Legendary Comeback Punctuated by Paul Gonsalves' 27-Chorus Saxophone Solo
Unrivaled Analog Transparency: LP Mastered on Mobile Fidelity's World-Renowned Mastering System and Pressed at RTI
It spurred Duke Ellington's comeback into the mainstream. It captures a performance so energetic, wild, unexpected, and unprecedented that the music literally caused thousands of people to jump up and stand on their chairs, worrying officials that a riot might ensue. It is jazz of the highest order, played at an almost rock n' roll pace, and with an enthusiastic pep that confirms Ellington and his ensemble fed off the crowd's reaction as the collective lit into each new stanza. It is Ellington's best-selling album. It is Ellington at Newport.
Like few records before or since, the 1956 set owes as much to context and circumstance as it does instrumental execution. Years prior to his appearance in Rhode Island, Ellington had suffered lackadaisical record sales and a falling out of the public eye, as bop and hard bop supplanted tradition big bands. Yet in preparation for the event, Ellington worked on experimental ideas and a reshaping of some of his standards.
The iconic arranger/composer's foresight comes into fruition throughout the white-hot set, never more so than on "Diminuendo and Crescendo In Blue," on which tenor saxophonist Paul Gonsalves erases all rules and outlays a 27-chorus solo that left everyone in awe—and prompted them to stand on chairs, dance feverishly, and hoot and holler to an extent that caused Ellington to ultimately cool things off. The improvisational flight epitomizes boldness, freedom, risk, and, to the bandleader, an assuredly loud response to the critics that had believed his well was tapped.
The songs in advance of the climactic moment are no less exciting; Ellington and his 15-piece collective manhandle notes with ease, swinging and sliding through "Festival Junction" with a requisite balance of poise and panache, and kicking heels on "Newport Up" via Ellington's spry piano riffs, Jimmy Hamilton's spicy clarinet feeds, and Clark Terry's trumpet runs. In every way, Ellington at Newport is as quintessential as Kind of Blue, Giant Steps, and Way Out West.
And now, the 1956 classic can be experienced in an analog fidelity never before as authentic or transparent on any pressing. Mastered on Mobile Fidelity's world-renowned mastering system and pressed at RTI (America's best record plant), this numbered-edition Silver Series LP of Ellington's triumph boasts tremendous separation, deeper low frequencies, clearer highs, and front-to-back dynamics. Horns blare with multi-hued color, the Duke's 88s ring out with treble finesse, and the rhythm section claims an added presence buried on previous editions. Musically and sonically, you need this LP. It's that simple.

Methods: :
15 pars planitis patients were included. The expression of CD8, CD57, CD85j, CD94, NKG2, and CD158b were assessed by flow cytometry at basal microenvironment. In a second step CD8+ T cells were isolated by positive immunomagnetic selection and stimulated with/without IL-15.
Results: :
We observed that CD8+CD57+ T cells were increased in patients with pars planitis. CD85j expression was 3.2 times increased on CD8+CD57+ T cells subsets compared to CD8+CD57- T cells subsets (p=0.009). We also observed a higher frequency of CD94+ on CD8+CD57+ t cells than on CD8+CD57- T cells subsets (p< 0.0001). CD158b expression was 8.1 times more frequent on CD8+CD57+ T cells than on CD8+CD57- T cells (p= 0.001). After stimulation with IL-15 we observed changes in the expression of CD158b on CD8+CD57+ T cells and CD8+CD57-.
Conclusions: :
CD8+CD57+ T cells were increased in patients with pars planitis as has been reported. CD85j, CD94 and CD158b were preferentially expressed on CD8+CD57+ T cells. IL-15 stimulation apparently down regulates CD158b expression on both CD8+CD57+ T cells and CD8+CD57- T cells. Our findings suggest that chronic inflammatory conditions such as pars planitis may induce the expression of killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs). These receptors have been associated to cellular activation or inhibition functions depending on their associated intracytoplasmic regions. The addition of the proinflammatory cytokine IL-15 found in chronic inflammatory conditions may modify the pattern of the KIR receptors in CD8+ T cells subsets. These properties may be used to design a directed immunotherapy using these cellular surface markers.Acknowledgments: This work was partially supported by a grant from National Council of Science and Technology (CONACYT 71291) and Fundacion Conde de Valenciana.

Beautiful Dreams are True: A Poem
I'm a beautiful dreamer if You're the dream
I know that this life is more than would seem
You're looking from up above, shining Your glory
Read Your Word, it tells your loving story
A passionate King, giving His prince up for the poor
A guiltless man, beaten, used, and scorn
A holy calling, His duty was fulfilled
Life through his blood, it was death that was killed
I'm a beautiful dreamer if You're the dream
With your love in my heart bursting at its seam
You smile at me, I grin with joy at You
With peace like this, who knows what will ensue?
Thank you, God, for joyful and eternal life
For guidance and strength through the strife
I will wait until that glorious, beautiful day
Everyone is a dreamer I believe. To dream is to better life. To better life is to honor the Life-giver. Amen.
Awesome....love the poem..beautiful dreamer I voted way up..debbie
So very beautiufl and I now look forward to reading many more by you.
Take care
This is a truly awesome and amazing poem! Our Lord the Prince of Glory...truly an Awesome God, indeed!!
The ultimate connection is vertical, right? i.e., not just dreaming of a marriage partner but of a future connected with divine leading ... .
Re-reading it: 'I'm the beautiful dreamer if You're the dream'.
Good line!
PS: re. 'Read Your Word, it tells your loving story'. I just looked at this again and certainly, the theme of love really shines through in John's Gospel and John's epistles; it's a key word. Blessings.
Well, exactly. :)
You discuss aspects of dreams.
In the sense that a 'dream' can seem almost too good to be true, I guess that what the hymn calls 'Love so amazing, so divine' can also seem like a 'dream', too. But it's founded on God's Word.

I had to use this service in an emergency because our door lock jammed and we were unable to get into our house. Had he not already been on another emergency call it would have been much sooner. He arrived as per estimate, assessed the problem and clearly told me, without sales pressure, exactly how much it would cost to put it right. The job proved to be full of difficulties but the charges remained the same.
Absolutely the best locksmith services in our area.
The locksmith was quick to change my locks. I would happily recommend him.

Lubrication is essential for the advancement of energy efficient modern industries. Lubricants are widely used in industry to minimize friction and wear between tools and moving components. Additives are utilized as common lubricants reinforcement in order to achieve overall improved tribological properties. This study presents and discusses the tribological properties of friction, wear, and extreme pressure of two synthetic lubricants: GL-4 (SAE 75W-85), a fully-formulated oil; and Poly-alpha olefin 8 (PAO 8) base oil. These lubricants were doped at various filler concentrations (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0wt%) of CuO and Al2O3 nanoparticle additives. Anti-wear tests were performed with an Optimol SRV 4 tester, according to ASTM D5707; extreme pressure tests were performed with a T-02 four-ball tribotester. Wear scar diameters (WSD) were characterized by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS). Anti-wear results showed a decrease of up to 18% and 14%, on coefficient of friction (COF) and WSD with 2wt% CuO/PAO 8. The load carrying capacity (poz) of GL-4 and PAO 8 increased by ~14% and ~273%, respectively, with the addition of CuO nanoparticles. However, the incorporation of Al2O3 nanoparticles was not as effective, showing an increase of up to 18% and 12% on poz for GL-4 and PAO 8, respectively.

Class Character
Class Character is a platform for faculty of Canadian Jewellery programs to share the victories of their graduating students and open the doors of their respective departments to the MetalAid community. This is an ongoing, annual project. If you would like to see your school featured in future editions of Class Character, please contact us for submission guidelines and details.

Nova Scotia College of art and design university
Halifax, Nova Scotia
Jewellery takes on a new and dynamic face when worn or exhibited and NSCAD students took full advantage of this potential in April with three concluding exhibits.
Fete a la Main, a juried fashion gala was held this year at Casino Nova Scotia to a large crowd of excited viewers and participants. Each student contributed six models to wear their most flamboyant designs. Proud of my students, I sat in the audience listening to all the oohs and aahs as each model made their way down the runway.
In addition, other exhibits such as Jewellery in Motion held at both the NSCAD Art Bar and the stunning new Halifax Main Library as well as the Fashion Pop Up were organized by graduating student Anastasia Pindera with the help of her senior colleagues and were all well attended. Throughout the year undergraduates participated in many group exhibitions and calls for entry.
At the Anna Leonowens Gallery, MFA graduate Karin Jones presented a powerful thesis exhibition on 'An Investigation into the Nature of African-Canadian Identity'.
March brought Janis Kerman to Halifax to give an amazing lecture on her outstanding career and give two earring design workshops with extensive feedback to each intermediate and senior student.
Also, in March, the Studio Projects and Enamelling classes travelled to Montréal to attend the opening of the Aurélie Guillaume (alumni) and Zachery Lechtenberg exhibition Toc Twee at Garlerie Noel Guyomarc'h. The next morning Noel kindly spoke about the international artists in his gallery and students were also pleased to tour École de Joaillerie de Montréal and major museums in the city.
Among prizes and scholarships won by NSCAD students was the winner of CJA's 100th Anniversary Design Competition Andreea Murgu who was honoured at a special presentation in Toronto and Ho Ching Chan won the L.A. Pai National Canadian Student Jewellery Competition leading to a solo exhibition at the gallery.
As well, we have had an active exchange program overseas and many more events throughout this academic year. We are looking forward to seeing the new projects students will create in 2018/19.

Eating local food at the beach
Our young friend Elsie drove an hour from Boston and spent a day with our extended family at
. Elsie brought a big brown bag of beautiful, locally grown, organic food from her
"subscription." She also brought a wide-mouth quart jar of perfect bread and butter pickles she and her man Andrew had made, following a recipe in
.So Elsie provided many of the ingredients for a great beach dinner. Then, as she had said in advance would happen, she left before we cooked and ate it.Five of us put the ingredients together to make the meal: Sons Eli and Elisha, Elisha's friend Sarah, my main man Steve, and me. Elsie could not have had better timing with her fresh veggie gift: we expected nine for dinner.With five of us cooking in the tiny garrett kitchen with the ocean view, we made a classic beach dinner - all fresh, all sumptuous, all on the light side.An inventory of Elsie's CSA bag:
> Ripe yellow and red tomatoes > Small sweet onions > A head of fresh garlic with soft, transparent skin (a garlic adolescent, in other words) > Yellow summer squash, zucchinis, and a lovely pale yellow squash with a light green color splash on one end > A gorgeous head of a leaf lettuce I did not recognize, perhaps a Romaine type, dark and tender > A white (or cream) sweet pepper > Small pickling style cucumbers > Perfect small, sweet carrots still sporting their green tops > A cantaloupe
And more. I think there was a fragrant bouquet of basil, too. Here's how we used the wonderful local foods:
Carrot and Pepper Dipper Strips: Sarah cleaned and cut the carrots lengthwise into slender dipper sticks, and turned the white pepper into long slender scoops for Eli's guacamole appetizer. Eli uses a "framework" instead of a recipe to make this dish, taking advantage of the creamy Haas avocadoes always on sale during our time at Salisbury Beach. Without giving away another chef's secrets, I can say that Eli's ingredients include perfectly ripe (not mushy) Haas avocadoes chunked and smashed a little with lemon juice, lime juice, chopped onion, chopped tomatoes, salt, pepper, and sometimes cilantro and some fresh hot pepper. White corn chips are the classic, tasty vehicle for getting guac to the mouth. We stretched the category with Elsie's carrot and pepper sticks.
Squash-Garlic-Tomato Casserole: I cubed all the squashes, chopped up the whole head of fresh garlic, and stirred all together in a bowl with one tablespoon flour. I chopped up the red tomatoes, seeds, skins, juice, and all, and tossed them lightly with the other veggies in the bowl. I poured the mixture into an oiled glass 9" X 13" pan, and sprinkled on salt, several grinds of black pepper, and about four ounces grated Gruyere cheese. I set this to bake at 400 degrees in my mother-in-law Eloise's oven downstairs, avoiding baking all of us third floor cooks along with the casserole. 45 minutes later, this dish was vegetable-sweet and Gruyere-savory, with crispy edges.
Grilled Salmon: Elisha chopped most of a garlic head fine - it looked like uncooked rice grains - and we made a marinade in a big bowl. Eli squeezed in the juice of a lime, and we added a couple of tablespoons of Spectrum sesame oil, a dash of soy sauce, and a couple of tablespoons of Eden Mirin (seasoned rice wine.) We chased two sizable salmon fillets, about three pounds total, in and around the marinade, giving the fish a few minutes to collect flavor before Steve grilled it on his baby Weber grill.
Green Salad: Elsie's lettuce, the yellow tomatoes, some feta, and other veggies filled a giant salad bowl. I made a vinaigrette I often use for salads: I stir together these ingredients:
About 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil A tiny bit of mustard, about 1/8 teaspoon, either dry or Dijon A tiny bit of sugar, about 1/2 teaspoon Sea salt to taste (or you can leave it out completely) Black pepper to taste (or leave it out if you prefer)
Mix these ingredients vigorously with a fork or small whisk in a small measuring cup or bowl until they are well blended.
Add 2 to 3 teaspoons Cavalli Balsamic Seasoning, or to taste. Stir vigorously and pour over salad just before serving and eating.
Corn on the Cob: Fresh, local "Butter and Sugar" corn - what the Bay Staters call "native" corn, grown just a few miles from our beach cottage. Steve dropped it into boiling water for less than two minutes and we served it plain, with optional butter, salt, pepper.
Cucumber saladin the tsatsiki style: Sarah peeled a couple of small strips of skin from each cucumber and then sliced them in bite size chunks. She sprinkled them with sea salt and set them to drain in a strainer. After 20 minutes or so, she squeezed them by the handful several times, so they were limp-crisp. I used the flat side of a knife on a cutting board to mash together about 1 teaspoon of finely chopped garlic and 1/4 teaspoon sea salt, making a paste. I stirred that paste into a cup of Fage Greek Yogurt (thus committing the biggest non-local food sin of our vacation). I stirred the thick, creamy, tangy, garlicky mixture through the cucumbers.
We ate like queens and kings in the ocean air. Those who could bear it (being either young or male or both) had Blonde Brownies for dessert - a family favorite treat. I use friend Judy Rosen's recipe, and she was present at the dinner.
We visit Salisbury Beach each summer. This is Steve's home. This year I passed the one year mark - I have spent more than 52 weeks of my life in this beloved place. One of the things I love most each year is the joint work of turning great local foods into our evening meals. Elsie's big bag of organic local produce may have set a new standard for delicious freshness. My thanks to all the growers, chefs, providers, and dinner companions involved in our meal.

How We Help Underwriters Operate More Effectively
The challenge for underwriting in the specialty lines market is the lack of affordable software sophisticated enough to deal with the wide range of use-cases encountered by underwriters in the specialty space. Senior management also wants to control authorities in order to manage risk and profitability. Andovia's platform offers powerful means with which to manage the process.
Authorization Levels and Controls
Andovia's systems enable a robust level of control over the underwriting process to help optimize the business performance.
Andovia enables:
- Underwriter Authorization levels to be managed and controlled by the administrator
- Underwriter Authorization levels to be operationalized at multiple levels
- Underwriter's current authorization level to be presented during the quote process
- Underwriter's current authorization level to be limited by the underwriter's workflow authority and force escalation of work to authorized underwriters for review
- The System to know if the underwriters are exceeding their limits and can escalate for review. This is a valuable safeguard.
- The underwriter escalation automation is expeditious in order to avoid loss of business
Underwriter Task Automation
The following features help to drive up underwriter productivity and effectiveness:
- Premium adjustment of the policy risk, at all coverage levels, is automated. This reduces the amount of time it takes the underwriter to negotiate and dial in a risk / Premium ratio that will win the business and control the level of risk so the new business protects the margin goals
- The originally quoted premium is always available, so the difference between the rated premium and the underwriter overrides is always transparent during the quoting process
- Correspondence template management and generation of proposals, policies, and declination letters. The system will leverage existing desktop templates and automatically data merge quote and or policy variables to eliminate the need to manually generate business correspondence
- Underwriter workflow triggers can be enabled to escalate underwriter cases to the underwriters with the correct levels of authority.This ensures timely responses to business submissions required to improve quote-to-close ratios.
- The system will also interface with the premium reporting system and produce auditable summaries of the policy and the booking instructions used to book premiums.
- The system also allows the underwriter to create quoting templates for specialty niche markets to increase the productivity of servicing new business requests.

Christie-Lee and Jackson decided to re-do their wedding photos as an anniversary present to themselves. Picking the perfect photographer isn't easy! You have to enjoy their unique style, feel comfortable around them, and have faith that they'll be able to capture those special moments for you. I was so happy that this beautiful couple decided to trust me with their re-do wedding session!
It's so fun to find the colors the most inspire a couple to be themselves! On this day we got stopped every few minutes by lovely folks wanting to share in the celebration. Christie-Lee and Jackson were even serenaded to at one point! You remember that old saying about the journey and not the desination? Well, yeah!
Their love filled up the rest of my day. We laughed, we explored, they shared stories about falling in love with me... and by the end of it, it felt like we really had recreated their wedding day!

This is one for the history books.
Jay-Z die hard fans are well familiar with the lore surrounding The Bronx Pool Hall, where a young Jay-Z engaged in a legendary rap battle against DMX. To make matters even crazier, Big L and Dame Dash were both on hand as spectators, with the former managing to capture some of Jigga's bars on (still unreleased) video footage. To hear Dame tell it, the moment is an important cornerstone in pop culture DNA, and it's a shame that it remains unseen to this day. Imagining DMX and Jay-Z going head to head would have truly been something to behold.
On that note, we may have the next best thing. Footage from The New Music Seminar in New York has recently surfaced, after one fan did some serious VHS crate digging. In the footage, Jay-Z (with Dame Dash, DJ Clark Kent, and Harry Allen in tow) can be seen partaking in a rap battle, getting up close and personal while spitting some bars. His style is completely different, more akin to the dexterous lyrical style of the early nineties. While that hasn't exactly aged well in today's climate, Jay's talent is pretty evident from the jump, and the way he controlled the crowd foreshadowed his rise to stardom.
It's definitely a great find, and watching this feels like watching a piece of history. Again, it may not be the infamous DMX battle, but it's still cool to see a young and hungry Jay-Z in action. The video is captioned as taking place in 1993, which puts it three years ahead of Jay's debut Reasonable Doubt. For those of ya'll who came up on New York hip-hop, this is a must-watch, especially if you're a fan of Reasonable Doubt. Can there really be any doubt that Jay-Z is, at the very least, top three?

Betsy DeVos was in Wichita, but not many people knew about it
The nation's top education official was at Koch Industries in Wichita on Monday, Oct. 1, in a visit that was not announced to local school district leaders or media.
U.S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos met with "a small group" of teachers, students and representatives of Youth Entrepreneurs, a Wichita-based non-profit group founded by Charles and Liz Koch, said an official with the organization.
"Our Youth Entrepreneurs team was asked to host Secretary DeVos and explain the impact on more than 30,000 alumni since the start of our program," said Lois Hairston, communications manager for Youth Entrepreneurs in an e-mailed statement.
Hairston did not say how many people attended the meeting or whether DeVos visited any local schools or other sites.
"We do not know the details of the Secretary's visit," she said in an e-mail.
Neither Youth Entrepreneurs nor the U.S. Department of Education issued a news release about the event.
The secretary's online schedule noted "no public events" on Monday or Tuesday.
Wendy Johnson, spokeswoman for Wichita public schools, said neither Superintendent Alicia Thompson nor other district officials were told about DeVos's visit. Officials with public school districts in Maize, Derby, Goddard, Andover and Valley Center also said they didn't know the secretary was in town.
John Burke, superintendent of Haysville schools, said a Campus High School teacher e-mailed him on Sunday to tell him that the teacher and several students were "going to get to meet Betsy DeVos."
"And I thought, well, that's pretty cool," Burke said.
The teacher, Zac Kliewer, tweeted a photo Monday of himself and three students with DeVos and Liz Koch, chairwoman of the Youth Entrepreneurs board of directors.
"Extremely honored for my students and I to be invited to meet and talk to @BetsyDeVos about YE," tweeted Kliewer, who advises the Youth Entrepreneurs chapter at Campus High. The location stamp on the tweet was Koch Industries.
After a reporter contacted Kliewer seeking information about DeVos's visit, "He got a call from somebody with the Kochs, and they said, 'We would prefer not to have any media coverage,'" Burke said.
Asked what he thought about DeVos's private visit to Wichita, Burke, the Haysville superintendent, said, "It was a really interesting thing, obviously, for our students and the teacher. If anything, I suppose she got to see that public schools are doing some pretty cool stuff."
DeVos, one of President Trump's most controversial cabinet appointments, was confirmed in February 2017 after Vice President Mike Pence broke a 50-50 vote in the Senate.
Critics complained about her lack of experience with public schools and her support for school choice initiatives such as vouchers and charter schools. DeVos, a member of one of Michigan's wealthiest families, has donated millions to Koch-backed Americans for Prosperity and other conservative organizations.
Since taking office, many of DeVos's public appearances have been met with protests from educators and others who oppose the secretary's stances. Her visit last fall to Kansas City Academy, a private middle and high school in Kansas City, Mo., drew about 150 protesters.
On Wednesday DeVos launched a four-state "Rethink School" tour, which included visits to the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta; the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama; Holmes County Central High School in Lexington, Mississippi; and Edward Hynes Charter School in New Orleans.

Taken at the start of my third week in Rarotonga, after a few days of rain, thunder, lightning and heat. I went to the water's edge to photograph the sunset and my hair was caught by the wind. Feeling like Medusa, I took a couple of shots. This is the tamer one. A tan has been acquired while going about my daily life, and it continues to deepen. I'm okay with that :-)
I am loving the photography. So far I've really only had time to play around 'home'. I was out, watching another sunset and noticed the trees in the wind. I loved this but perhaps it's too strange for anyone else to like.
We have a new lunchtime friend. This is the second day, in a row, he's popped up from a gap in the middle of the outside table, to remind us to share that fresh paw paw, banana, mango and pineapple smoothie of ours.
I'm frustrated by my lens options ... this was taken with my 70-200mm. Not ideal but you get the idea. He trusts us and stays, quietly licking our offerings until he is full.
I love the Gecko here - the Moko. They 'chatter' in the softest way, and they eat insects and spiders. As I am constantly waging war with the ants, all Moko are welcome.
Life goes on. I have learned the peculiar pleasure that is observing the 50km, maximum, speed limit. Life, in general, is so much slower here. And I'm loving the small truck that I drive. I would drive a million miles in it if I could.
The woman who said she would wear jeans here now wanders, dressed minimally. A local sarong as a skirt, a singlet, and my beloved Havaianas ... my elegant black 'wear everywhere' jandals.
This Rarotongan life ... it's a good life.

Apologies to anyone who received an error message when trying to check out MYXOCENE on Amazon today. Apparently this was a website-wide problem (yes, even Colum McCann's books were triggering the error). Since I just announced the book yesterday and a number of people received an email about it this morning, I'm certain the resulting rush of book seekers had something to do with the crash.
At any rate, the problem is resolved, so feel free to go to Amazon and snag a copy.

Our logo designers love to design quality logos and brand identities that work. Every company needs an identity so the world can connect with it. Without a brand identity, your audience won't have any trust in your company or in anything it has to offer. The value of the products or services will be perceived as little to none. With an professional logo design, the opposite happens. Everybody wants to trade with trustworthy companies that offers high value at no risk. Have a look at some of the logo designs, our prices, and how the process works. When you are ready get in touch, so one of our logo designers can assist you in establishing a trustworthy brand and a quality logo design that works.
Vector Logo Design
Company Letterhead
Email Signature*
Monochrome Logo
Brand Style Guide
Business Card Design*
3D Logo
*All logo packages includes up to 5 names per email signature design
*Business card designs include up to 3 names per design
*Printing is not included due to too many printing options
Our logo designers got you covered!
Starting from
You have already taken the 1st step to establishing your brand, and that was to find a logo designer. The next step is to let us know that you are interested in hiring us as the designing firm to design your company logo. You can do this by simply completing the form below.
One of our logo designers will respond to your request with a detailed proposal via email. If we are a good match for you and your budget, then the logo designer will continue to the next phase when we receive either full payment or deposit as indicated on our proposal.
The logo designer will send you a list of tailored questions that we will need you to answer. You may send an email with your answers along with any other information or images to the corresponding logo designer. Your answers will serve as a briefing that will guide us to an efficient company logo design for you.
After receiving your briefing, the logo designer will start by doing thorough research of your target audience, your competitors and design trends in your industry that work. Our findings will be summarized and sent to you by the logo designer. If the research shows that your briefing might have a negative impact on your logo design, the logo designer will inform you and offer some suggestions. You can then make an informed decision to either alter your briefing or give the logo designer the green light to proceed with the initial briefing. This phase is only applicable to the Mega and Giga Logo design package.
It is much faster and more fun to illustrate and conceptualize ideas with a classic pencil and paper than with professional designing software. For this reason, the logo designer will start to experiment with various ideas in a pencil sketch format while keeping the Briefing and Mood board in mind. Sketching also helps the logo designer to concentrate on the form and shape instead of trying to juggle between shape, colour, and typography at the same time. The logo designer will then choose the 3 most efficient drawings, and refine them for the next phase.
The 3 blueprints now serve as a foundation that the logo designer can start to build from. They are scanned in and digitized using industry-standard, vector design software. The logo designer continues to refine the shape of the logo designs even more by using a geometric grid system for accuracy and proportioning. If your logo is not a Letter-mark or a Word-mark, the logo designer will move on by focusing on the typography (font) of each logo. When the shape of each logo design, including the text, has a tight lockup, the logo designer assigns a very particular colour to every element of the logo while keeping the Briefing and Mood board and its psychological factors in mind.
Each logo design will be sent to you by the logo designer as a potential option for a new company logo. Along with the logo design itself, the logo designer will also include how the logo will look in various sizes, and on contrasting backgrounds. The colour theme, typefaces (fonts) and focus keywords will also be on the presentation. On the next page will be a presentation of the company letterhead and email signature that comes with your logo design package.
The logo designer will need you to choose the option that best aligns with your company. Even though we need you to make a choice, the presentation that you choose is not carved in stone. If you would like the logo designer to make any changes to your chosen logo design, letterhead and email signature, feel free to ask for those changes, but please be sure that you ask for all the desired changes together. The logo designer can give you up to 5 rounds of changes before there will be any additional costs. The 1st set of presentations is your 1st round.
As soon as you are satisfied with your new company logo, letterhead, and email signature, you may settle the outstanding balance if you only paid a 50% deposit. When the balance is settled, the logo designer will obtain the license for the typefaces (fonts) used in your logo design. Next, the logo designer will export the logo design that you approved. It will be exported as a Vector PDF, a transparent PNG, and a Bitmap JPEG. The exported files will be sent to you along with the typefaces and their licenses by the logo designer. The email signatures will be sent as JPEG images. The Letterhead will be sent as a JPEG image and already fixed as a header in a Microsoft Word Document so you can just type away.
We are a logo design company in Pretoria East, Gauteng, South Africa. Even though we are based in South Africa, you can hire us as your logo designers wherever you are. Technology today allows us to easily communicate audibly and visually with Platforms like Skype and Teamviewer.
On average it usually takes the logo designer about 5 to 10 working days to produce the 1st presentation that consists of 3 logo design options. Sometimes it may be quicker and other times it may take a bit longer. It also depends on the complexity of the briefing and how fluent the correspondence is.
We design vector logos in CMYK to comply with printing requirements. When the final logo is approved, one of the formats that we export it in is a transparent PNG. Since PNG files are mainly used for screen applications like Computers, Laptops, Tablets, and Smartphones, the export automatically converts the logo design to RGB. Our Mega and Giga Logo design packages include a brand guide that supplies the CMYK, RGB, Pantone, and Hex colour ranges of the logo, along with some other valuable guidelines.
Yes, our Giga and Mega Identity design packages includes a business card design, letterhead design and an Email signature design. See our Brand Identity Packages
This scenario rarely happens and our logo design process is carefully and strategically created to avoid such scenarios. Since we understand that we are human and make mistakes, we do investigate where it went wrong, how we can avoid it in the future, and how to turn the situation around. If it were to happen that you feel that none of the 1st 3 logo design options are aligned with your company then we will need you to explain why to determine where the logo designer misunderstood the briefing, or where the briefing misled the logo designer. If the briefing misleads the logo designer, then an overage fee will be charged. Our goal is still to provide you with efficient logo design, so either way, after the wrinkles have been straightened out, we will return to the drawing board for the next presentation of 3 options.

I am all for premarital counseling! When my hubby and I were engaged, our Officiant and his wife did our premarital counseling. We still refer to some of the lessons that we learned during our sessions! Read on to find out what to expect from your sessions and ways that it will benefit your marriage. After all, you aren't engaged to have a wedding. You're engaged to start a marriage.
Your premarital counseling sessions must be performed by a licensed counselor or minister. Most states provide a discount on your marriage license if you can prove that you completed a premarital counseling course (savings? Yes please!). Even if you're nervous or hesitant to peel back some layers in a counseling session, remember that you get some savings on your license. Plus, it's not as scary as you think!!
You will discuss a lot of topics, so be ready to answer questions. Or if you're like me and process things a little slower, be ready to ponder some of the topics discussed. Then, you can have a meaningful conversation with your fiancé later. You'll discuss finances, children, careers, expectations, conflict management, values, intimacy, religion, household responsibilities, social life, family involvement, and a variety of other topics. For us, these things were very good to talk about in a safe setting with a professional. Yes, we had grazed over some of the topics, but actually having to talk through them, what I thought, what he thought, and how we see our lives together really hit home.
We did something in our counseling that we didn't even realize until the end. Matt and I were sitting together on a couch. When we started our sessions, we weren't touching and had some space between us. By the end of our sessions, we were cuddled up next to each other and often times holding hands. It was sweet to see how talking through serious topics and having some deep conversations didn't scare us, but actually brought us closer together.
We received some excellent advice during our premarital counseling. We still talk about how we need to set aside time for us (now that we're parents, it's easy to be "transactional" and not as "relational"). When we argue, we understand that we both "fight" differently. I need time to process and calm down, but he's ready to solve the problem right then and there. It's a balancing act. Having our foundation from our counseling really helped to set us on the right path for a happy marriage. Is it a perfect marriage? I think that's impossible. But we are both so happy and find ourselves loving each other deeper every year that has passed.
Obviously, I'm pro premarital counseling! If you're nervous or have some reservations, I'm happy to share more of my experience!
