So, to continue my boastful tirade of "look how wonderful my birthday was!", I'm writing this post. When I got home, after keeping things pretty secret (I didn't want much of a fuss) Nick presented me with a surprise birthday cake which was all kinds of airy cream and chocolate.
The strawberries on top were a sweet bonus, because I'd been growing a little strawberry plant for the past few weeks, and after finally getting it to sprout by placing it in the corridor...it vanished.
Either my Korean is terrible or nobody reads notes asking you to please kindly not steal my tiny little strawberry that could stand on a 50p piece. But either way, I was a little devastated and Nick convinced me it'd gone to bulk up and become part of my birthday celebrations. Dark.
Birthday cakes are pretty easy to find here for very reasonable prices and they're all far superior to the dry, cloying things you tend to pick up in supermarkets back home. They also have the added bonus of coming with candles, matches, and a little knife so you can celebrate anywhere and everywhere. Super cute.
We also joined Ziggy for samgyeopsal in the gogijip (it's literally called "Bupyeong Meat House") behind our apartment and found out that it's not only a great price but also really delicious! After gorging ourselves on pork and beef, we went to get some bubble tea and generally hang out for fun times. Thank you to you both~
|Cake and party poppers for breakfast in your pjs is the only way to follow up your birthday shindig.
One of my co-teachers also attended the festival, and we had arranged to go to lunch afterwards and would be joined by Rachel and Jamie.
We ate bossam, which I was too busy devouring to take a good photo of, and then moved on for round two, which ended up being in a Japanese restaurant.
What I didn't realise was that actually this second trip was a bit of a ruse to allow Rachel some time to collect the birthday cake they'd ordered for me!
|Accidentally super-appropriate cake, strawberry and CHERRY with cream and chocolate.
|Brief reminder: In Korea I'm 24, not 23, haha. They didn't get it wrong.
|Nails galore!
The little penguin is full of 'cotton' scented hand cream and lives on my desk at school now, very handy as the weather drops further and further into the cold and dry.
|Language note: ㅋㅋㅋ is "hahaha" (or rather, kekeke. Think of a cheeky Muttley laugh)
Finally, inside a little hangeul-print bag was a homemade birthday card with the sweetest message on it. I really love the effort they put in and it's sitting pride of place next to the equally-wonderful card I got from my grandparents this year.

There are few masters of the art of the short story. Alan Dean Foster is one of them. This collection includes a variety of short stories from Foster, creator of the Commonwealth series, the Pip and Flinx series, and author of the bestselling Star Wars bridge books, Splinter of the Mind's Eye and The Approaching Storm. This collection, which features exotic locales, leans towards the macabre, starting with a delightfully creepy story called "Lay Your Head on My Pilose." "Empowered" is a hilariously cynical look at what might happen to a real Superhero in today's litigious society, and "The Question", in which a valiant explorer determines to see what lies outside his comfortable existence, gives one a wonderful sense of perspective. The collection ends with "Sideshow," a marvelous little Pip and Flinx adventure. Each story begins with a short, fascinating commentary from the author. Anyone who enjoys the short story form, or who thinks he has a future writing short stories should definitely own a copy of Impossible Places.

War Dogs
Director: Todd Phillips
Writers (screenplay): Stephen Chin, Todd Phillips; Jason Smilovic
Based on an article written by Guy Lawson, "Arms and the Dudes" published in Rolling Stone (2011)
Starring: Miles Tellers, Jonah Hill, Ana de Armas; Bradley Cooper.
When does telling the truth ever help anybody? Is the title of a chapter in War Dogs. Ironic in that the film is based on the true story written by Guy Lawson: a fascinating exposé about two 20-something year-old's who put together what is now known as the Afghanistan arms deal worth $300 million dollars.
But War Dogs isn't an action-packed war movie, this incredible story is about two mates seeing an opportunity and taking it.
It's not about war, it's about making money.
Combining this have-to-see-to-believe story with a great soundtrack (I'm talking golden oldies such as Creedence Clearwater), director Todd Phillips has brought to life the two characters, David Packouz (Miles Teller) and Efraim Diveroli (Jonah Hill): The laugh Jonah Hill gives his character Efraim is unforgettable.
And I just had to laugh at the balls of these kids. You can't make this stuff up. What a story and well worth reading the article originally published in Rolling Stone back in 2011: Arms and the Dudes.
I saw a recent interview on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon where Jonah talks about War Dogs and the need for a daily slathering of fake tan because he was allergic to the stuff. Combined with the laugh and standout performance from Jonah, Efraim was the highlight of the film for me. And then there's the legendary Henry played by Bradley Cooper: an arms dealer who was said to have sourced the rope to hang Saddam Hussein after he was convicted of crimes against humanity.
These guys are the bottom feeders, where War Dogs are those who make money out of the misery of war without ever seeing combat.
This is a film to get people talking, to shake at the incredulous cunning and open for business policy of the American Government. And I congratulate director Todd Phillips for getting the feel just right.
The film is shown as a series of chapters, a telling example entitled: I love Dick Cheney's American War. And reminiscent of, The Hangover trilogy, the voice-over narrative of Miles Teller as David Packouz gives the story a personal touch.
The freeze mid-action gives the audience a chance to absorb the craziness where if someone were to tell you this story, it would be too far out there to be believed: The American government posting arms contracts to the general public for 20 year-old's to bid on and win?
Making such an incredible story believable with fantastic acting (Jonah Hill, what a legend) and thought put into the pacing of the film, gives War Dogs a winning quality.
Whether the truth of the story will help anyone is a statement worth discussion, but War Dogs is certainly entertaining and thought-provoking.

However, there is an important exception. For some students, the use of personal assistive technologies – e.g., an electric wheelchair, eyeglasses, or a cochlear implant – is essential for basic physical and sensory access to learning environments. Those students will need their assistive technologies, even during activities where other students may not use any technologies at all. Even in classrooms that are well equipped with UDL materials and methods, their assistive technology neither precludes nor replaces the need for UDL overall.assistive technologies

Joshua 3
Israel Crosses the Jordan1 Then Joshua rose early in the morning and they set out a from Shittim. And they came to the Jordan, he and all the people of Israel, and lodged there before they passed over. 2 b At the end of three days the officers went through the camp 3 and commanded the people, "As soon as you see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God being carried by c the Levitical priests, then you shall set out from your place and follow it. 4 d Yet there shall be a distance between you and it, about 2,000 cubits ▼
▼ A cubit was about 18 inches or 45 centimetersin length. Do not come near it, in order that you may know the way you shall go, for you have not passed this way before." 5 Then Joshua said to the people, f "Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do wonders among you." 6 And Joshua said to the priests, g "Take up the ark of the covenant and pass on before the people." So they took up the ark of the covenant and went before the people. 7 The Lord said to Joshua, "Today I will begin to h exalt you in the sight of all Israel, that they may know that, i as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. 8 And as for you, command j the priests who bear the ark of the covenant, 'When you come to the brink of the waters of the Jordan, k you shall stand still in the Jordan.'" 9 And Joshua said to the people of Israel, "Come here and listen to the words of the Lord your God." 10 And Joshua said, "Here is how you shall know that l the living God is among you and that he will without fail m drive out from before you the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Hivites, the Perizzites, the Girgashites, the Amorites, and the Jebusites. 11 Behold, the ark of the covenant of n the Lord of all the earth ▼
▼ Hebrew the ark of the covenant, the Lord of all the earthp is passing over before you into the Jordan. 12 Now therefore q take twelve men from the tribes of Israel r from each tribe a man. 13 And s when the soles of the feet of the priests bearing the ark of the Lord, t the Lord of all the earth, shall rest in the waters of the Jordan, the waters of the Jordan shall be cut off from flowing, and the waters coming down from above shall u stand in one heap." 14 So when the people set out from their tents to pass over the Jordan with the priests bearing v the ark of the covenant before the people, 15 and as soon as those bearing the ark had come as far as the Jordan, and w the feet of the priests bearing the ark were dipped in the brink of the water (now x the Jordan overflows all its banks y throughout the time of harvest), 16 the waters coming down from above stood and rose up in a heap very far away, at Adam, the city that is beside z Zarethan, and those flowing down toward the Sea of aa the Arabah, ab the Salt Sea, were completely cut off. And the people passed over opposite Jericho. 17 Now the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord stood firmly on dry ground in the midst of the Jordan, ac and all Israel was passing over on dry ground until all the nation finished passing over the Jordan.

Praise be to Allaah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allaah.
The month of Safar is one of the twelve Hijri months, and it is the month which comes after Muharram. Some of the (scholars) said that it is so named because of the emptying (isfaar) of Makkah (i.e., its people would all leave) when they travelled during this month. It was also said that this month is named Safar because they used to raid other tribes at this time, and they would leave those whom they encountered bereft of their possessions (sifran min al-mataa') – i.e., they would take all their belongings away and they would leave them with nothing.
(See Lisaan al-'Arab by Ibn al-Mandhoor, part 4, p. 462-463)
Our discussion of this month will cover the following points:
1. What has been narrated concerning it from the Arabs of the Jaahiliyyah.
2. What has been narrated in Islam that contradicts the views of people of the Jaahiliyyah concerning this month.
3. Innovations and corrupt beliefs concerning this month that exist among people who claim to be Muslims.
4. What happened in this month of military campaigns and important events in the life of the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).
5. False ahaadeeth that have been narrated concerning Safar.

2016 Cadillac Escalade SUV Premium 4dr SUV (6.2L 8cyl 8A)
Escalades have been our choice of family car for years and years. We have three daughters that are competitive cheerleaders— therefor we travel A LOT. Classy, stylish, comfortable, easy to drive, always a looker— pretty much perfect... until this model. The jerk and the harsh gear changes are terrible- and also it shakes sometimes like your going off the interstate and hitting the little bumps on the line. We've taken it in several times (an hour away from our house) basically nothing changes- The process Cadillac is requiring is an absolute JOKE.. try this, try that...basically to waste your time and not have to address THIER issues. By the time you've taken your car in to meet there "requirements" of their "process" it's already a few years old and ready to be traded in. They know exactly what they are doing. It's actually very very very disappointing how Cadillac has handled this... and it's not just my car- according the the internet it's a very common thing. Shame on you Cadillac, makes me sad that I have to buy another brand. It's understandable that things happen— it sucks, but it's life. What's unacceptable is they way they've handled their mistakes.
2016 Cadillac Escalade SUV Premium 4dr SUV 4WD (6.2L 8cyl 8A)
Please invest in a more reliable SUV!! Cadillac should be ashamed pricing this truck at 80k and it's trash. I purchased a 2015 certified Escalade. In the first year the ac went out twice. It stopped going in reverse. And finally the torque in my transmission went out. So I traded it in for a 2016 certified escalade. Unbelievable!!! After driving this truck for a couple of hours I had to take it back, they kept it for suspension issues and they can't figure out a rattling sound!!! I have a 2004 GMC denali that is more reliable!!
2016 Cadillac Escalade SUV Platinum 4dr SUV 4WD (6.2L 8cyl 8A)
Everything is better especially the ride. Does not have the throaty exhaust but that makes it more like a car.
Ok we will start with the PRO: Looks and cargo space. That's all. Now the Con: First off I want to start off by saying I own a car dealership and have personally owned every type of vehicle their is. This truck is the worst vehicle by far that I have ever owned. The engine burns oil at 11k miles. Brought it in to the GM dealer and they hand me a paper stating that it's acceptable to burn up too a quart of oil between oil changes. 92,000 dollar vehicle and Iam adding oil between oil changes? The transmission shifts horrible and slams into gear every day I pull out of my garage. Going up hills the truck loses power and seems to not know what geat to go into. Also my wife and I smell coolant in the car when you first turn on the ac as if the heater core is leaking. We paid extra for power running boards and they Stick. Truck rides ruff and clunky. It's a real shame because we sell used Cadillacs on our lot and the older ones were much better. I feel the quality of a Hyundai or Kia far exceeds the quality of this truck. I have never went on and reviewed a car or truck in my life as all vehicles have their issues but this truck has so many problems that even though it's so pretty this truck makes me so angry and Iam so laid back. I don't care how much money you have this truck will be your worst financial decision you have ever made in your life if you buy it. No redeemable features other then size and beauty. I had to go jump start this truck the third day of owing it because the battery was no good. And I remind you we bought it brand new with no miles. I don't have time to go to the dealer every week because of all the problems. We can't even drive the truck we're paying so much money to have. The dealer wants to give us a Chevy Cruze as a loaner car every time. We bought this truck because we have a big family. I end up putting a dealer plate on a Honda Pilot and have my wife drive that. So basically buy a Honda Pilot to drive when your Cadillac is broken down and in the shop every week. If I could give this review negative stars I would. Nothing in my life has disappointment more then this vehicle. Buy German or Japanese the quality it much better.
2016 Cadillac Escalade SUV Standard 4dr SUV 4WD (6.2L 8cyl 8A)
I owned a previous generation Escalade and the new model is a huge improvement over the old one. Interior is very luxurious, and looks way better than GLS or Q7. Old model was Rear or AWD only, and now you can get 4WD, and use it in rear wheel drive mode (or automatic or permanent 4WD) for everyday driving. No need to use 4WD for summer driving and waste gas. As a result fuel economy improved substantially, I get 16 mpg in the city and up to 26 mpg highway. Apple CarPlay adds a nice touch and all electronics and navigation look/work perfectly fine. My complaints would be lack of a sunroof in the base trim ($76K), and even if you get a model with a sunroof, it's a small one. Panoramic roof is not available. Magnetic ride is awesome and very smooth, however, once you hit a rough pavement, the ride becomes very jittery. Handling is very confident and acceleration is very good, but, try to change lanes quickly at highway speeds, and you will be quickly reminded that you drive a huge truck. Overall driving feeling is very confident, you won't be bothered by snow, heavy rain or any other nonsense. In the end, I decided to get this car for its unique look and presence. Park it next to Audi Q7 or MB GLS and see for yourself. Q7 looks like a station wagon/minivan from the side, and GLS looks very unassuming and small next to the Escalade's huge grill and glowing vertical LED lights. Euro competition may offer better ride and some technical advances, but Escalade brings such unique and unrivaled presence - it is still the king of SUVs.

I had the privilege of chatting with one of my musical heroes this morning – singer/songwriter/producer-extraordinaire Joe Henry.
I mentioned that I'd been particularly inspired during a day of heavy writing yesterday after spending time with one of my favorite volumes of poetry, Rilke's Book of Hours. One of the poems there seemed inspired by Joe's own work, specifically the song "Light No Lamp When the Sun Come Down" (although I know that this is chronologically impossible).
Lo and behold, it turns out Professor Joe treasures that volume of poems as well.
Anyway, during our conversation, he happened to share some rather exciting news, and with his permission, I'm quoting him here:
just yesterday i finished recording an album in the basement of old gospel and spirituals with aaron neville…14 songs in 3 days; then a day with a quartet of gosepel singers. the band was allen toussaint at the upright piano and in the same room as jay bellerose, patrick warren, david piltch and chris bruce (greg lesiz sitting in a day). i go straight into mixing tomorrow with my engineer ryan freeland; and even as bleary as i am today -and thrilled to have my house empty- i can't wait. going by, it felt as deep as any music i have had anything to do with.
Coming from the producer of great albums by Allen Toussaint, Mary Gauthier, Solomon Burke, and so many other great musicians, well… I'd say this new is reason to rejoice.
And all the more reason to be excited about his upcoming sessions with Over the Rhine.

There's nothing more difficult for a parent than hopelessly sitting by their child's hospital bedside. I'm glad our team is able to help this great organization.
Birmingham, AL (PRWEB) June 16, 2015
With a new community program in the Birmingham area, the Brian Campbell Agency has teamed up with Ronald McDonald House, and announced a new charity campaign to raise funds to support families staying in Birmingham due to their hospitalized child. The Ronald McDonald House provides the families of these children with the comforts of a home away from home, warm meals, and most importantly a network of care and support 365 days a year. The Brian Campbell Agency is starting this campaign to help alleviate some of the stressors related to the hardship of having a sick child, providing families enduring such difficult hardships with a place to rest so that they can concentrate on the important things like getting their child back to health. Donations to the organization can now be made through the campaign's page at: http://www.briancampbellagency.com/The-Ronald-McDonalds-House-a-Home-Away-From-Home_15_community_cause.
Utilizing its own resources and seeking the help of its own network of customers and business partners, the Brian Campbell Agency marches on to ensure customers, friends, family and neighbors are always in good hands. The agency just recently launched the master charity program of which the current campaign is part of, electing every 30-60 days a new individual, organization or family in need to receive support.
The agency will promote the current campaign over the course of the next 30-60 days, through its social media channels, email and text message communications, as well as through a monthly magazine, delivered to thousands of households in Alabama, where the agency currently operates. Our Hometown magazine reserves a full page to feature the campaign and details of the cause. The electronic Flipbook version of the current issue can be accessed here: http://www.briancampbellagency.com/Our-Hometown-Magazine_39.
To join the Brian Campbell Agency in supporting the Ronald McDonald House, donors are encouraged to visit http://www.briancampbellagency.com/The-Ronald-McDonalds-House-a-Home-Away-From-Home_15_community_cause, and also share the page with friends and family. Contributors may be acknowledged for their donations through the agency's monthly magazine.
Once the current campaign is over, the Brian Campbell Agency will continue to work closely with the Ronald McDonald House and other nonprofit organizations in the area to make sure resources are directed to capable hands that can help better the local community, one family or person at a time. Information regarding past and current campaigns supported by the Agency can be found at http://www.briancampbellagency.com/community-cause. More information about the Brian Campbell Agency is available at: http://www.briancampbellagency.com/

People living in central Oklahoma should be grateful EnergyWire reporter Mike Soraghan continues to investigate and write about the dramatic surge of earthquakes here.
I'm one of those central Oklahomans whose property and safety have been threatened almost daily by manmade earthquakes, which scientists claim are caused by a component of the hydraulic fracturing or fracking process. I appreciate and I'm grateful for Soraghan's insightful and well-researched reporting.
Our local media, in particular The Oklahoman, which is owned by Colorado billionaire Philip Anschutz who made his money in the fossil fuel drilling industry, has shamefully abdicated its journalistic responsibility when it comes to the relationship between fracking and earthquakes. It seems obvious why this is the case. The oil and gas industry spends advertising dollars here to depict itself as vital, benevolent and neighborly, and it has a powerful, well-financed political lobby.
The oil and gas industry here isn't going to let several hundred earthquakes a year get in its way. The local media complies. This makes all mainstream media reporting here seem suspect, which isn't exactly a new phenomenon.
In recent weeks, Soraghan has reported on the earthquake crisis after going through "thousands of pages" of documents related to how state officials have responded to our earthquake crisis. These documents were obtained through the Oklahoma Open Records Act. He has written about the cozy relationship between University of Oklahoma President David Boren and Harold Hamm, the chief executive officer and founder of Continental Resources, an Oklahoma City-based energy company. This relationship, as Soraghan has reported, may have influenced how the Oklahoma Geological Survey, which is affiliated with the university, responded to the crisis.
Now Soraghan has reported how Gov. Mary Fallin and her staff were slow in their response to the issue after the 5.6 or 5.7-magnitude (it's been reported differently) earthquake near Prague on Nov. 5, 2011. Soraghan writes that the documents "show a team in the governor's office that moved slowly to address the quakes even as the earth rumbled more and more frequently."
Soraghan outlines how a Fallin aide contacted a Devon Energy lobbyist who sent "talking points" to the governor's office about the earthquake issue. One of those talking points goes like this: "There is no current evidence that oil & gas operations had anything to do with the recent large earthquakes in Oklahoma." That tells the story succinctly and obviously.
In the fracking process, water laced with chemicals is injected by high pressure into underground rock formations that create fissures, which release fossil fuels. The wastewater is then injected again by high pressure into what are called disposal or injection wells. An increasing number of scientists and studies claim the injection well process is to blame for the state's huge increase in earthquakes over the last few years.
Oklahoma, which just a few years ago had extremely minimal seismic activity, now leads the contiguous United States in the number of 3.0-magnitude or higher earthquakes. The state experienced 585 such quakes in 2014. It's on track to experience more than 800 this year.
It's not unusual to feel two or three earthquakes in central Oklahoma each day. This has produced a great deal of anxiety among many residents here. They're obviously concerned about their safety and their property. Even if there's never a major quake, say, in the 6.0- to 7.0-range here, what is the overall impact on buildings that shake and rattle almost every day for, literally, years and years? What if you own one or more of those buldings?
The state's earthquake surge has paralleled the fracking and horizontal drilling energy boom here in Oklahoma and elsewhere.
The larger answer to the problem is to develop renewable and cleaner energy sources, but that's not the immediate solution that's needed in this case. What really needs to happen now are moratoriums on injections wells in certain areas of the state and more regulations on how they operate. Could the state require recycling the wastewater? We need substantial action.
What Soraghan's reporting tells us is that important state leaders here have shown at the very least an appearance of bias towards the oil and gas industry on this issue. Maybe that's changing now. Fallin's office and the Oklahoma Geological Survey have now noted the strong link between injection wells and earthquakes. Boren is adamant geologists at OU have complete academic freedom to study the issue. But is it too late?
As I've noted before, if the earthquakes continue to rattle us here in central Oklahoma the issue will be politically contentious in the 2016 general election. Many of the quakes are near the relatively wealthy suburb of Edmond, which is a conservative bastion. "Drill, baby, drill," the conservative mantra, has turned into "shake, baby, shake." The anxiety over property values and personal safety will surely trump political ideology.
A personal note: I've written about the earthquake issue for several years now. It's not unusual for me to feel an earthquake as I'm actually writing a post about earthquakes and injection wells. We're living through this crisis on a daily basis in central Oklahoma. It's time for people to speak up.

Why You Need to Hire a Divorce Lawyer
Divorce isn't something that many married couples like talking about often. Filing for divorce is much more disagreeable and doing so without legal representation could be downright terrifying. For many other people, the divorce procedure couldn't have gone more smoothly. Oftentimes, the distinction is if an encounter divorce attorney was retained.
Even though the price of a divorce lawyer might seem expensive, the fee is usually more than made up during the previous divorce settlement. The lawyer might have the ability to acquire a client considerably greater than the customer would get through self-representation. The cost to obtain legal representation is called money well spent. Divorce legislation as it is is complicated. How this legislation may change and the ordinary person will get a headache trying to understand regulations.
A divorce attorney remains abreast of statutory changes as well as the evolving world of law. In the event that you would like to get happy with the settlement of your divorce, then hire an attorney. You'll be cared for from the lawyer all through the divorce proceedings. Your citizen rights will ideally be upheld and your situation will be safeguarded thoroughly.
There are lots of reasons to acquire legal representation throughout the divorce procedure. Divorce lawyers are wise about the actions involved, whereas the common person isn't. There is a great deal at stake at a divorce and leaving the occupation to a newcomer is not highly recommended. Individuals have lost their shirts because they did not have the knowledge required to get exactly what they were entitled to during their divorces.
Most cases aren't very cut and dry. Inheritance, kids, and other things can come into play. These demand different bodies of knowledge that intertwine with divorce laws in surprising places. … Read More ...

The week wasn't a total wash though. On my flights to/from Las Vegas, I was able to catch up on some reading. In particular, one of the books I read on my flight to Vegas was "The Entrepreneur's Guide to Customer Development" by Brant Cooper and Patrick Vlaskovits. The book summarizes some key points from "The Four Steps to the Epiphany" by Steven Blank, and it reminded me that I really need to take some time up front to work with actual customers. I realized that I have been building a solution based on the feedback I have received from teachers and those affiliated to the fields of education and literacy. All of these people have given positive feedback, but ultimately most of these people I have discussed details with are not going to be my customer. Before I get too far in determining my business plan, I need to establish a formal hypothesis and start working with actual customers to make sure my assumptions of problem, solution, and willingness to spend money on my solution are correct.
As I was reading on the plane, I slapped myself on the forehead and had one of those "duh" moments. How could I have overlooked this essential part of the lean startup methodology? It is kind of embarrassing that I did not sit down and start customer interviews two months ago when I first started to refine the Reading Glue idea. I guess it is better to figure this out now instead of later when I can't develop or maintain customers.
The next couple weeks should be interesting as I basically "cold call" customers and get critical feedback of my product. This will help provide some initial validation that I am headed down the correct path or where I need to make adjustments to insure I am providing a solution people are willing to spend money on. My assignment for the next couple days is to figure out the right questions to ask that will truly give me the critical feedback I am seeking. I am open ears if anyone has any suggestions or feedback on the initial customer interview process. I will be sure to post a follow up blog in the coming weeks with some of the results and lessons learned from this exercise.

I went to my first outdoor summer woodland wedding a couple weeks ago and was inspired to share how I achieve long-lasting summer makeup. I went for a natural daytime look, that would last throughout the day with minimal/no touch-ups required, that would withstand the summer heat, humidity and the excitement of a long day. This is a great look…Continue Reading→

Ban plastic carrier bags in Wales by 2020
0 have signed. Let's get to 35,000!
Petitioning Welsh Parliament and Government to:
Ban use of plastic bags in Wales by 2020 - why not lead the way for a change!
Sue Hay, South Wales, United Kingdom
Every single piece of plastic ever made, still exists. An extremely large amount of plastic bags will inevitably end up in our oceans, littering the floors and branches of our forests, killing both mammal and marine life alike. Plastic bags are responsible for the decline and extinction of thousands of species Worldwide. It is hard to recycle plastic bags. By banning plastic bags we will be setting a global standard and example for the rest of this planet and leading from the front for a change!
FACT: we never used plastic bags until 1960's.
Plastic bags do not degrade in the marine environment. Plastic bags photo-degrade, meaning they break down into smaller and smaller bits of plastic but never completely go away. Marine animals, such as turtles, and seabirds - even some fish see these micro plastic particles floating in the water and think that it's food. Plastic cannot be digested; thus the plastic blocks the digestive track and the turtle or bird dies from starvation because their food can't be digested. It is estimated that over 267 species of seabirds have plastic in their bodies. Numerous studies have proven this fact.
FACT: Plastic bags also kill our land animals in huge numbers.
This means that no matter how far from the ocean that you live, an improperly disposed of plastic bag will eventually reach the ocean through our rivers or by the wind.
"Over 46,000 pieces of plastic litter are floating on every square mile of ocean today. In the Central Pacific, there are up to 6 pounds of marine litter to every pound of plankton". That was in 2006, 11 years ago; imagine what the statistics are now.
FACT: The introduction of he 5p charge in Wales in 2011 has reduced useage by 71% but it's not enough.
FACT: There are other options. Plant based starch bags, or strong paper brown bag manufacturers offer an affordable, bio-degradable and environmentally friendly option to all.
I am urging the Welsh Government, leading plastic bag distributors, and supermarkets to take action towards this disaster and stop it while we can.
This petition will be delivered to: Welsh Government on reaching 10,000 signatures to Downing Street to be debated in parliament.
I agree with this cause and believe Welsh Government is conscience enough to make this happen.
Share with Facebook friends please to be part of the solution and not the problem!

Erin's digi pics
"My" Erin sent me some pictures that she took while here. There are some cute ones of my kids jumping on the bed in Erin's "room" (a.k.a. Val's office -- ha!) and then some during our visit to one of my favorite places in the entire world, Allerton Park, which is just literally 5 minutes from my door step. I can't believe I live by such an extraordinary place. She fell in love with it. She said it reminded her of Europe. Now you know why I take almost all my photo subjects out there. It's just an amazing place to land your feet and take your camera :c)
Here ya go. Thanks, Erin!
Oh. And I added more to the party pics that Johanna took on her camera. I think they are at the end of the batch.

A collection of 600 new homes and a state-or-the-art primary school, The Quarry is a highly desirable environment for first time buyers, thanks to its unique architectural design. Set within stunning retained ecological areas and newly provided open space, the development, a joint venture between L&Q and The Anderson Group, will breathe new life into the site of a former quarry in Erith, Bexley, which has lain neglected for the past 30 years. Multi-award winning architects, Studio Egret West, have created an innovative design concept driven by the site's topography, with its network of streets arranged to hug the contours of the landscape and gently climb the hill in a series of terraced platforms. The streets and homes have been designed to integrate with the landscape, creating a distinct yet harmonised architectural appearance, taking aesthetic influence from the history of the site.
This award is for the design of a building that exceeds normal architectural standards and makes a substantial contribution to the local environment.

So there you have it.Phillip Phillips
andJessica Sanchez
will duke it out during the final round ofAmerican Idol
. This doesn't come as much surprise, as Phillips and Sanchez have been early favorites since the beginning.Joshua Ledet
, who appeared in the bottom three or two twice before being eliminated last night, was a judges' favorite, but his gospel singer stylings failed to connect withIdol
voters in the same way Sanchez and Phillips did.
Phillips never appeared in the bottom, and Sanchez was to be sent home after the seventh round of the competition, but the judges used their one and only save of the season to rescue her from elimination. Ledet was very supportive of his fellow contestants prior to his elimination, saying he'd support his friends if they went on and he didn't. And go on they shall: On Tuesday Sanchez and Phillips will sing for a record deal and a jump-start to their recording career. The following day, the winner of the eleventh season of American Idol will be announced.

Hi.I have quite a problem with a form that contains an autocomplete function. The page is an aspx page with c# codebehind.On the form there is an address field that the user can type in any string address. This field is using an Ajax autocomplete extender, which suggests roadnames to the user. This works fine.Furthermore the user has the option to add multiple address fields when clicking a button. This works fine now with Jquery. Jquery copies the table which contains, besides other fields, the address field, and "paste" it underneath the existing adress field.Problem is, how do I attach the Ajax autocomplete extender to the address fields that gets added? Or is there another workaround to make all these fields have this autocomplete function?Here is my simplfied code:
aspx page:

<asp:TextBox ID="TextBoxStopRoadName" runat="server" Width="200"></asp:TextBox>

I want to create a gallery where on top there will be a normal view of a selected image and below a horizontal listview in order to select an image. Both in separate ajax update panels.
When i debug i get the following error "Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: index" and highlights the "ImageButton imgbtn =(ImageButton)ListView1.Items[ListView1.SelectedIndex].FindControl("ImageButton2");" of my code behind file
Can anyone help me? Thank you in advance!
Here is my code:

I am using AjaxAutoCompleteExtender in my asp.net program (C#) . I am applying the extender to a texbox and using internal Web Service. I am getting the desired result, when i am running from the development environment. After Publishing the site to IIS, I am not getting the list and not showing any errors. I have turned off custom errors. My website is not an Ajax Enabled WebSite. So i added the lines into my Web.Config.
I tried all service path.. http://localhost/Test/ WebService.asmx
and i tried ~/Test/WebService.aspx
While testing from the development environment, i am using the last one.
I am not sure whether this is the problem with the service path or any permission issue.
I have an autocomplete extender working well with IE and
Firefox but it is either displaying incorrectly or causing the error below in
Chrome and Safari.
Displaying incorrectly: At times the autocomplete list
appears in the lower right corner of the browser. It still works at this
point though.
Error: The list stops appearing along with the halting of
all of the JavaScript on the page. I captured the error (see
below). In order to get the page to operate correctly again, I have to
refresh the page.
Things to note:
Thank you in advance for your help!
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call

Sys.Extended.UI.AutoCompleteBehavior.showPopup dynamic fields added/removed depending on user selection Hi, Is it possible to dynamically add/remove fields upon creating an item in a list? For example: If user selects from drop down list and chooses "Booked" and a date field name "Booked Date" will dynamically pop up underneath. And if user selects a different choice, the date field will dissapear. Can someone point me to anything that can be of help? I searched around and noticed that this can be achieved via javascript using the ows.js object model? Thank you for your help.
Hello, everyone.
I created this simple dynamic data form using Dreamweaver cs4, ASP VB technology and a MySQL Database:
I love all of the extended functionality that VWD 10 provided, but the most important functionality for me is to be able to completely design a dynamic data table any way I want.
I noticed after researching extensively that the GridView, ListView and DetailsView templates still leave me very limited in what I can design.
My question: is there a way for me to design a table in a details page with record placeholders that will be fetched from a master/detail page set?
Is there any way of using ajax confirm button for dynamically created hyper link control?
I am using data in table and each row has dynamically created link control, so if the user click on the link then it will delete the row from database. Is there any way if i can use ajax confirm button for hyper link?

The first shop on John Street beyond the Salvation Army Hall was Ramage, the gents' outfitter, that became a British restaurant during the war and the Relay TV after the war, writes Jim Neil.
Beyond Ramage's we had Louden – sweets, Wilson – butcher, Hogg – newsagent, Fell – baker, Newbigging – children's clothes, Forrest – greengrocer, Cairns – sweets, Stevenson – toys. Then there was the Clydesdale Bank on the corner.
On the other side of John Street and opposite Bank Street there was Paddy Banks – clothes (where my mother once got two left-handed gloves) and Jean Wright/Tommy Bell – greengrocer. Next to the Cowan Institute there was a quaint little building that has long since gone. It had a wee forestair and at the foot of the stair there was Jenny Lamb's tea shop. When I was office boy at Valleyfield paper mills between 1944 and 1946, I had a Gladstone bag that I used when taking petty cash to the Clydesdale Bank or when collecting rent money at some of the mill houses.
I would wander all over Penicuik with this bag of money and I would stop for a break at Jenny's, where I would have a free bun and a mug of tea while sitting next to the bus drivers and conductors with the bag of money between my feet. It never occurred to me that I might be mugged on my travels and this was fairly typical of the carefee attitude that the mill had about transporting money. The mill wages were collected from the bank by the driver of the mill sludge lorry and I've heard that at one time they were collected by two men with a wheelbarrow! Other shops in the High Street and nearby included seven grocers (eight if we count the Buttercup in The Square) and they all seemed to make a living.
There was also a fishmonger and I remember being fascinated by the cooling water that ran down the inside of the window. I didn't envy the women who worked there because their hands always looked red and raw. The two pubs in the High Street deserve a mention. Back then The Railway Tavern was only ever known as "Leesters", after Willie Lister, the manager. Surprisingly, that name persisted and even today I hear young people talking about going to "Leesters". The likelihood is that Willie Lister had long gone by the time their fathers were born!
The Old Crown Inn (at one time better known as the "Middle") is reputed to be the oldest occupied building in Penicuik and the nearby Cowan's Pend still has the wooden setts that were used to deaden the hoofbeats of the horses as they passed by the guests' bedrooms. The Buttercup Dairy Company had a shop in The Square where a chiropodist is now located. If you pull the doormat to one side you will reveal a fine mosaic in which the letters BDC are set, along with buttercups at each corner. The green tiles below the side windows are typical of Buttercup tiling and until a few years ago the left-hand inner window displayed a piece of decaying paper depicting a milkmaid and a brown cow, which was the Buttercup motif.
You can find many examples of Buttercup pictorial tiling on shop entrances all over central Scotland and a good example is at the hairdressers at 102 The High Street, North Berwick. If anyone is interested in knowing more about the Buttercup, there is an excellent book by Bill Scott entitled The Buttercup – The Remarkable Story of Andrew Ewing and the Buttercup Dairy Company.
The Pen-Y-Coe Press in Bridge Street used to be the Post Office and, as Valleyfield office boy, I had to take the mail there twice a day. I often met up with Andrew Whigham, my opposite number from Esk Mills and one day he produced what I thought was a propelling pencil of the type that you get in a case along with a fountain pen. He smiled and shook his head. Then he scribbled with this "pencil" and to my astonishment, the scribbles were in ink! I had never seen anything like it! He let me borrow the pen so that I could show it to the clerks in the office. They were impressed but concluded that it would never catch on because you couldn't create the lovely thick and thin strokes that you could get with a dip pen. So the Biro was consigned to oblivion as a nine-days wonder!
The shops thinned out as you moved up the Kirkhill Road. Fred Kelling had a chippie opposite the Cowan Institute and my pals and I would buy a pie supper there on a Saturday night. Fred's method of heating the pie was to plunge it into the hot fat for a few seconds. This made the pie very tasty but you had to eat it quickly before the fat congealed. Further up Kirkhill Road there were two shops with similar names. Adamson, at the corner of Imrie Place sold some groceries as well as sweets and cigarettes, and at the top of Kirkhill there was Adams, a licensed grocer that was a great haunt of us kids attending Kirkhill Primary School.
For an old penny, we could buy a lucky bag that contained rubbishy sweets and an equally tatty gift (although I once got a pretty good catapult). Further down Kirkhill and at the top of a lot of steps, there was a sweetie shop under the name of Noble. I remember it for more rubbishy sweets of the type that appeal to kids, such as waxy false teeth and lips.
