Pen Pal: Tongue Tie Trauma
We are so excited to introduce our first tongue tie feature by Charlotte aka Musing Mum about her experience with her daughter Emily. We felt her story was the perfect start to our Mayday awareness campaign on tongue tie.
It's amazing how a little bit of skin under a baby's tongue can cause so many problems. I gave birth to my daughter 18 months ago and I am still happily breastfeeding. However, our breastfeeding journey has been incredibly difficult. We went through nearly three months of hell because my daughter's tongue tie went undetected.
In the first few days after birth, breastfeeding wasn't 'clicking' for us. I was in absolute agony, my baby lost 7% of her birth weight in the first two nights. No matter how much she fed she wasn't gaining. I saw countless people for support; midwives, breastfeeding support officers, GPs, health visitors and breastfeeding support groups, begging them for anything that might help me reduce the pain and ensure my daughter maintained a healthy weight.
Most had a quick look in my baby's mouth, saw nothing that gave them any concern and spent the rest of the time with me working on different feeding positions. I lost count of how many times people told me; "you're probably not getting the latch/hold right" and this was likely the cause of my distress. It began to drive me insane. I was following all the advice on a 'correct hold' but no matter what, feeding felt like someone was constantly and sadistically tattooing on my nipples!
I felt like a failure. The one thing my body was supposed to be able to do naturally, and I was completely incapable of getting it right.
Finally, around eight weeks in, a chance conversation with a new midwife at a breastfeeding clinic provided some hope. "The end of her tongue is heart-shaped, I'm sure this baby has some sort of posterior tongue-tie." It was the first time anyone had suggested this might be the cause of our problems. At this point however, the baby was too old for a midwife to correct it, so I was referred to a Paediatric Ear Nose and Throat Consultant.
My appointment lasted two minutes. The consultant took one cursory look in my baby's mouth and said "There's no tie here, why don't you try working on some positioning techniques?" I suggested a midwife had thought there was a posterior tie. He rolled his eyes and said "there's no such thing". In that moment, it felt like my whole world had fallen apart. All I ever wanted to do was breastfeed my baby, and after weeks of intense pain, I thought I'd finally found the reason for the trauma but I was back to square one.
I knew this wasn't just a positioning or latch issue, so I made the decision to see a private midwife who was considered locally to be a tongue-tie expert. It was expensive, but my last shot.
At the appointment, the midwife examined my baby and diagnosed a 70% restriction posterior tongue-tie. She corrected it there and then – a swift procedure to snip the tight connecting skin. I was terrified. My baby didn't even cry!
The results were incredible. The damage to my nipples was so severe it took a few days for the pain to subside. But what I did notice straight away was our feeding time was halved to 30 minute feeds. Within a week, her weight shot up and continued to steadily climb.
I was absolutely elated. After nearly 12 weeks of constant worry and living with the worst pain I've ever experienced, I was finally able to enjoy feeding, and being a mum.
What struck me in the months following was: a) There was nowhere near enough training and understanding within my local NHS on tongue-tie, we should not have been misdiagnosed by so many people; and b) it appears to be more common than you think. I have four friends in my 'circle of mums' that had babies with tongue ties missed at birth. All of these women found this experience incredibly upsetting, exhausting and painful.
If there was more awareness and understanding around this issue, many more women would be able to continue to breastfeed, and do so without the intense and unnecessary pain.
Thank you Charlotte for sharing this with us. You can follow Musing Mum on Facebook Instagram or her blog page. Once all our tongue tie tales are told, we will collate the tips for teats and tits alike. In the meantime if you have any words of wisdom on the tip of your tongue, then we would love to hear Your Voice.

Just what everyone wants on the eve of a huge winter storm… a swimsuit story!
This past weekend I snuck away to the Bahamas for a girls' getaway (I know, feel free to hate me). It was just a quick trip but turned out to be exactly what I needed to recharge after the big wedding, LOL (but seriously).
You know how much I love my suits, so I couldn't wait to road test some new soon-to-be favorites.
Cover Swim is a always a go-to for me. I love how their long sleeves keep sun exposure in check while also feeling athletic and fun. Their latest crop of suits does NOT disappoint. I'm obsessed with this new plaid (in both blue and red) and their take on the classic stripe (once again, in my favorite colors blue and red).
I also tried out the new GabiFresh for Swim Sexy and this suit especially caught my eye, with it's amazing Bond Girl vibes. The green is so good! Gabi's collection is full of fun prints too, so definitely check it out. She is killing it!!
So if this polar vortex has you down and you don't know what it do, it's simple really: hop online, plan a vacation, buy some new swimsuits and you will feel good as new! 🙂

WIPs and Chains
Except 3800 words the first time around ended up only about 2900 words the second time and I know they weren't as good. I cannot describe to you how much I LOATHE trying to recreate something I already wrote. It takes all the fun out of the creative process. Anyway, it's done and I've moved on and written another 4000 words on it since then and hopefully will do at least that today!

Former Conservative MP Tony Clement has had inappropriate online relationships with more than one woman and went to the police months ago because someone was trying to pay one of the women to offer up intimate details of their exchanges, he admitted Thursday.
When Clement told Conservative Party Leader Andrew Scheer last week that he had shared explicit images of himself online in October and was being extorted to prevent the images from being released publicly, he insisted it was an isolated incident.
It was not.
"During a period of personal difficulty and weakness I engaged in inappropriate exchanges that crossed lines that should never have been crossed," Clement wrote Thursday in a statement to his constituents in the Ontario riding of Parry Sound-Muskoka.
Scheer looked grim as he was forced to take time away from a policy announcement on crime in Brampton to respond to the latest admissions, posted by Clement just moments earlier.
"This was a shock to me when I was made aware of the situation," said Scheer.
Despite knowing for several months that someone had been trying to dig up dirt on him, Clement continued to sit until Tuesday on Parliament's national security and intelligence committee. Members have top-secret clearances and can be privy to extremely sensitive information.
Clement is no longer on that committee and the RCMP and the Privy Council Office are investigating possible security breaches.
Clement approached Scheer last week to let him know someone was trying to extort him because he'd sent explicit images and a video to someone he thought was a "consenting female." He also asked the RCMP to investigate.
Thursday, Clement said the most recent extortion attempt was by "foreign actors" but provided nothing to explain why he believed that to be the case.
Clement's lawyer, Joseph Neuberger, emailed media outlets Thursday warning them not to publish any of the explicit images or video they may be given and that doing so without Clement's consent would be a criminal offence.
Clement said he wouldn't comment beyond what was in his statement.
He resigned as the Conservative justice critic and from his committee assignments Tuesday night. Wednesday morning, prior to the Conservatives' weekly caucus meeting, Scheer said Clement would remain a Tory caucus member because he trusted Clement's claim that he'd committed a single, though terrible, "lapse in judgement."
But even by then, there was a growing number of women posting on social media sites that Clement had befriended them online, seemed to follow their activities closely, liked all their photos and sometimes contacted them privately through direct messages, often in the wee hours of the morning.
A few hours later, Scheer said Clement was no longer welcome in the caucus because he had clearly lied when he said it was a single incident.
New Democrat MP Nathan Cullen said he knows of several Conservative MPs who told Scheer directly that he had no option other than to show Clement the door.
Scheer's office would not confirm whether any MPs influenced his decision.
"The decision to ask Tony to resign was Mr. Scheer's and his alone," said Brock Harrison, the leader's spokesman.
Clement wrote on Thursday that he had let himself and everyone who cares about him down.
"Pride and vanity got the better of me, and shame held me back from getting back to the path of good," he wrote.
"I apologize to the women with whom the exchanges occurred, and I also apologize to anyone else who felt in any way that I crossed online boundaries that made them feel uncomfortable, even without my knowing. I am deeply sorry," he wrote.
He said his constituency office will stay open and he will remain an MP.
Clement has already been reassigned a new seat in the back row of the House of Commons. He is in a small section with three other MPs – former Liberal cabinet minister Hunter Tootoo, former Liberal MP Darshan Kang and former NDP MP Erin Weir – who have also found themselves on the outs with their parties because of allegations of improper behaviour.
Clement was a Conservative party stalwart, a cabinet minister in Stephen Harper's government and twice a candidate for the federal party leadership. He dropped out of the most recent leadership contest early on and endorsed Maxime Bernier. He also ran for the provincial Tory leadership in Ontario, where he was once a cabinet minister.
Clement is married to lawyer and author Lynne Golding.
Read the letter below.
This is Tony Clement and this message is for my constituents in Parry Sound – Muskoka.
I have had the tremendous honour and privilege of serving as your Member of Parliament since 2006, a trust that has been renewed through four consecutive federal elections. Whether on the government or opposition side of the aisle, whether serving at the Cabinet table or on the back bench, my top priority has always been, and continues to be, working for the people and communities of Parry Sound – Muskoka. I have done so tirelessly, with passion and enjoyment from the first moment I received the honour to work on your behalf.
I have always aimed to serve with humility and today, I am writing to you directly to address a number of poor decisions in my personal and private life. During a period of personal difficulty and weakness I engaged in inappropriate exchanges that crossed lines that should never have been crossed. These exchanges led to acts of infidelity. One inappropriate exchange led to a woman being offered money by an anonymous social media account in exchange for the disclosure of intimate and personal information. I immediately reported this personal matter to the OPP last summer. Most recently, another inappropriate exchange led to foreign actors attempting to use my indiscretion for financial extortion which, without hesitation or second thought, I immediately reported to the RCMP. While these exchanges were entirely consensual and mutual, they were absolutely wrong and should never have occurred.
In conducting myself this way I've let down myself, my family, my friends and supporters, my community, my work colleagues, and my staff—basically everyone I care about and who care about me. Pride and vanity got the better of me, and shame held me back from getting back to the path of good. I apologize to the women with whom the exchanges occurred, and I also apologize to anyone else who felt in any way that I crossed online boundaries that made them feel uncomfortable, even without my knowing. I am deeply sorry.
I want to be clear that at no time have these personal lapses impacted or involved my day to day work as a Member of Parliament on behalf of our communities. That said, I offer you no excuses for my conduct. I take full responsibility. Members of Parliament are expected to set a high standard, a standard I have failed to meet.
In particular, I have failed the most important person in my life, my wife who has been with me through the many ups and downs of public service. She has made many sacrifices along the way in order to build a loving home and a wonderful family. I cannot undo the pain and hurt my actions have caused. All I can do is own up to what I have done and commit myself to rebuilding our trust, however long that may take. The mistakes I have made in my personal life, for those who know me, do not reflect who I am. I am resolved to refocus, to work hard, and to heal the damage I have caused to those most important in my life.
I love my job and I love my family. I am committed to getting the professional help I need to continue serving my family, my community and my country in whatever ways I can. I wish to sincerely thank the many members of our community who have reached out to convey their thoughts and prayers to me. I can assure the residents of Parry Sound – Muskoka that my offices remain open and at your service, and that I will continue to uphold the responsibilities of being your Member of Parliament.
Tony Clement
M.P., Parry Sound – Muskoka

Hey guys! In this post, I'm going to state the connection between Aokiji-Smoker-Dragon. This is based off a famous fan-theory. So sit back, and enjoy!
Smoker was raised by a Pirate, to set sail to the seas and be a Pirate.
As a child, Smoker wanted to be a Pirate. But along the way, Smoker's sense of justice didn't let him be a Pirate. Instead, he believed that the marines are the just side and wanted to change the world by joining the marines. Smoker was then abandoned by the Pirate and he found company in the form of two other people East Blue – Kuzan (Aokiji) and Monkey D. Dragon.
As they grew up, all of them dreamt of changing the world and making it a peaceful place by guarding it against all evil.

I'm all for 'Slinging in the Rain.' Maybe it's just because my kids aren't young enough to whine, but I feel confident taking them out in the rain. My one year old is fascinated by the rain. In fact, I took her outside for a quick picture in our rain jackets and she cried the instant we stepped back inside.
We decided to take the girls for a walk through the neighborhood in the early hours of Hurricane Sandy.
The rain was plummeting, but there was no lightening and the area we walked through was clear of trees even though it was gusty. Audrey came, too! I bundled her up and put her in the carrier. She spent the first few minutes talking and smiling with me. Something about the fresh air always puts her in a good mood. Whenever a gust of wind blew between us she would gasp for a deep breath. The end of the walk yielded some tears, but we got home quickly and took care of the diaper issue.
Early in our relationship, I was intimidated whenever my husband tried to pull me out of my comfort zone for a hike. Now, I'm just as excited as the rest of the family to get outside to explore. It's certainly easier to muster the courage to take two little girls out in a hurricane because he is a former rescue swimmer. I wouldn't want them to miss out on any of the great lessons he can teach them about preparing for safety or tackling a challenge. Luckily, since I'm getting in the adventuring habit now they may never know that I was once a wimp.

Hazel's Story/
Meet Hazel. Hazel was born 11 weeks early weighing only 2 ½ pounds. At 14 weeks gestation, her parents were told Hazel most likely wouldn't make it. The placenta had started to tear away. After countless ultrasounds and tests, her parents were told at the very least she'd have spina bifida, and at worst she would be still born IF her mother didn't miscarry her first. At 22 weeks gestation it was discovered she most likely had a virus and wouldn't live more than a year after she was born, if she indeed did survive being born. At this time, the doctors suggested amniocentesis to determine if her parents should terminate the pregnancy. Her parents were 100% committed to her, and decided that amniocentesis was too great a risk to her life so late in the pregnancy. Hazel's mom was admitted to hospital at 25 weeks gestation when it was discovered she was 1cm dilated. Hazel was born at 29 weeks gestation via emergency c-section. To the doctors surprise, the surgery was too much for Hazel's mom to handle, and 4 surgeons were required to 'put her back together again'. Her mom would be restricted to an additional 6 months of modified bed rest, however that didn't stop her from visiting Hazel in the hospital everyday for Hazel's 2 month stay. During that time, Hazel struggled to regulate her own breathing and required assistance. She also struggled to be able to eat on her own.
Hazel came home two weeks before her actual due date, weighing a whole 6 pounds for her homecoming.
It is common for babies as premature as Hazel to have issues with their head growth, and Hazel's head grew far too quickly and too big, indicating she most likely had Hydrocephalus and would require a permanent shunt to be put in to drain the access fluid. After 7 head ultrasounds, and one cat scan, it was determined that Hazel simply just has a big head. Doctors continue to monitor her head growth, as do her parents, and her body is in a hurry to catch up!
Today, Hazel is 16 months old and just starting to stand up with her parents' help. She has regular doctor visits at least every two weeks, and will be followed closely by her team of doctors until she is 6 years of age.
Hazel loves her pet cats, she loves to build with her blocks, and she loves her
xylophone Santa brought her. Her laugh is infectious, and she loves to play with other children. She truly is the miracle her parents, friends and family prayed for.

Probably the worst thing about approaching women is… the possibility of getting rejected and feeling like a total loser as you walk away from her. Many times, just the idea of being shot down by a woman is enough to keep a guy from even trying to walk up to a woman and get a conversation going with her. The problem is… until you embrace the possibility of getting rejected and become okay with it, then it will always seem like a horrible thing to approach a woman you do not know. Of course, as long as you feel that way, it will also seem hopeless when you think about how to find a girlfriend.
Embracing rejection is one of the best switches that any man can make to become successful with women. You need to go from being the kind of guy who just looks at women from a safe distance to being the kind of guy who can walk up to her and start talking to her without worrying about the possibility that she is going to act cold or shoot you down. If you can do this, then you can end up with more opportunities than you ever thought were possible.
Most men will never force themselves to approach women they do not know if they feel like that woman might shoot them down. This means that they will never approach a woman they think is out of their league or above them in any way. Of course, that also means a lot of lonely nights, a lot of shaky confidence and a lot of frustration as well. When you can force yourself to make approaches and embrace the possible rejection that comes with it, then you can make a quantum leap in your success with women.
Truthfully, approaching really good looking women is not that much different than walking up to an average woman and talking to her. Sure, there are some differences, I won't deny that, but it is probably not as 'scary' as you imagine it would be. And many times, you might just find that you can get her talking pretty easily as long as you don't come across like a jerk in any way.
Allow Yourself to Embrace Rejection From Women…
Do you realize that for most men, the odds of a good looking woman and a hot woman rejecting them are pretty much the same. They are… most of the time. So, when you see a woman you think is really attractive and you want to go and talk to her, do it. You need to do things like this to break you out of your comfort zone just a little bit. That way… you will end up getting comfortable approaching the kind of women most men will not.
Besides, will it really destroy your world to get shot down? Maybe for a few moments or even a few days, but that is about it. After that, it will be in the past and you can forget about it. At least you will know that you had the stuff to go and give it a try. You can also raise your hopes by learning how to talk to women as well.

How will you get your first 100 customers?
How big is the market? (i.e. How many people can potentially use this solution?)
How often does your product show up in your user's day or week?
What will be your phases of product and business development?
How will you monetize and scale?
Why is now the right time to solve this problem?
- Why is your team the one who can pull this off?

treasure island wedding | san francisco open-air photo booth

If you attended the wedding, and are looking for the high-res images, you can find them here (you will need to speak to the bride or groom about the password).
Congrats to the lovely couple, on throwing an excellent party to celebrate your union - it's just a shame that nobody had any fun in the booth. ;-)

Rolex Watches For Sale
Little did Hans Wilsdorf realize that the small-time timepiece company that he founded in 1908 would go on to become a global phenomenon that would single-handedly redefine the meaning of a luxury watch. Rolex, a name so fondly inscribed in our minds as the pinnacle of luxury watch brands, is Hans Wilsdorf's creation in mention, and ever since its humble beginnings, the company has grown into a mammoth organization that to this day, still produces unparalleled timepieces that demonstrate an emphasis on precision and sophistication. Although Rolex was originally founded in London, it is today headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland- the mecca for quality Swiss engineering. Each Rolex watch is crafted with care and with scrupulous attention to detail, both of which are testaments to the quality that luxury Swiss-made watches such as Rolex watches represent.
Used Rolex Watches For Men and Women
It is an impressive feat that Rolex has been able to dominate the luxury watch industry for over a century without slowing down in overall popularity or cutting-edge innovations. Their catalog features a wide range of options which only serves to showcase their versatility. From the formal wear collections of their Datejust, Day-Date, and Cellini, to their sport models such as the Submariner, Daytona, and Yacht-Master, this is the most trusted name in luxury watches for both experienced connoisseur and novice collectors alike. With a focus on aesthetic elements for a visual appeal unsurpassed by other brands, as well as the latest in technology to keep up with the times, Rolex watches are manufactured for luxury and function all in one.
Pre-Owned Rolex
Aside from the hallmarks of superior craftsmanship and overall quality, Rolex watches are revered for retaining value over time. While other designer names might struggle to retain their value over the years, a Rolex will always keep a good deal of resale value which makes it a wise investment. When considering resale value as a factor when purchasing, knowing that a Rolex watch is an investment rather than another expense certainly plays a role. Rolex prices fluctuate from year to year, so if you're looking for an updated Rolex price list for either buying or selling Rolex watches, contact us and we would be happy to help you out.
In a market saturated with fakes and imitations, buying quality pre-owned Rolex watches can be a difficult process.

Google's second acquisition of the year is trust seal provider KikScore, based out of Washington, D.C. and Denver. Terms of the deal weren't disclosed.
As of June 28, KikScore announced, their service will no longer be available to their 1,700+ customers. They recommend that customers "check out the Google Trusted Store product as an alternative to the KikScore service."
In the announcement, KikScore said Google has acquired their technology and "certain assets." KikScore CEO and co-founder Rajeev Malik recently described his company in an interview as:
"… a patent-pending online reputation score and interactive report card for small businesses around the world. KikScore enables online small businesses to take information and reputational data about themselves, their track record of responsibility and dependability and show their website visitors that their business can be trusted. Small businesses do this by placing the interactive KikScore Confidence Badge, real-time merchant report card and comment platform on their website so they can close more leads and sell more."
KikScore wasn't thought to be an alternative to the Google Trusted Store product so much as they were complementary. While Google's program focused more on customer service, purchase protection, and shipping, KikScore offered a more holistic look at the business as a whole. For example, customers could learn where the e-commerce website was hosted, who owned the company, and review customer feedback with real-time scoring.
In the world of e-commerce, trust is big business. A 2010 national survey by the National Cyber Security Alliance discovered that 54 percent of Americans at the time were "extremely concerned" at the prospect of loss or theft of their identifying or financial data online. Retail e-commerce sales in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2012 alone surpassed $53 billion.
With their Trusted Store program, Google will try to compete with longer established companies to instill confidence in online consumers. KikScore's technology will definitely help them beef up their offering, should they incorporate the features into Trusted Stores.
Google has been working hard at making online purchasing and mobile payment more attractive to consumers; in April, they also acquired mobile payment technology company TxVia. In that deal, TxVia's 100 million customers came to Google as part of the package.

The following sanctioning panel procedures are generally followed. The COD reserves the right to adjust these procedures as the Chair deems appropriate. As described in Section XV, special procedures will be employed for sexual misconduct sanctioning panels.
A. The sanctioning panel is scheduled as soon as is reasonably possible after any Investigation is completed and the respondent's written response has been received by the OSC staff or after the deadline for submission has passed.
B. In cases of a student organization, the governing council responsible for that student organization shall be notified of the pending case and be invited to submit a letter to the COD about the case.
C. The OSC will notify a complainant and respondent of the sanctioning panel date and provide both parties with guidelines for submitting documents for the sanctioning panel and a date by which any documents to be presented at the sanctioning panel must be submitted.
- All parties are required to affirm that materials they submit to the COD are their own work. Outside collaborators, including an advisor, must be cited.
- Information submitted following this date may only be included for consideration at the discretion of the Chair.
- Following receipt of this information, the OSC will provide documents and distribute them to the COD panelists, the complainant, the respondent, and their advisors.
D. The sanctioning panel usually proceeds as follows, although the Chair may vary the procedure at their discretion. If a witness is called for a sanctioning panel, it will follow similar procedure to witnesses during a hearing.
- The Chair reads introductions and description of the hearing procedures to the parties.
- The Chair reads the alleged violation(s) and confirms with the respondent that they are accepting responsibility.
- The complainant may make an opening statement followed by the opportunity of the respondent and the COD to ask questions of the complainant.
- The respondent may make an opening statement followed by the opportunity of the complainant and the COD to ask questions of the respondent.
- The COD may ask questions of both parties and the parties may question each other.
- The complainant may make a brief closing statement, followed by the same opportunity for the respondent.
- The Chair makes a closing statement, including when decision is expected to be made.
- The COD meets in executive session to deliberate.
E. Chair's Role (or Associate Chair, when applicable)
- The Chair convenes and facilitates the sanctioning panel.
- The Chair may postpone or suspend a sanctioning panel.
- The Chair may call a brief recess at any time during the sanctioning panel.
- At any time, the Chair determines whether any particular question, statement, or information will be allowed during a hearing. Formal rules of evidence that apply to civil or criminal judicial processes are not applicable.
- The Chair shall warn any participant deemed to be disruptive, harassing, or intimidating to any other participant and if appropriate, excuse any individual's presence at a sanctioning panel, or take any other action deemed necessary by the Chair to ensure an orderly sanctioning panel.
F. COD Deliberations and Decision
- Once the Chair concludes the sanctioning panel, the COD meets in executive session to reach its decision. Because the facts are agreed and the respondent has accepted responsibility for violating Institute policy, a formal finding of responsibility is entered and the only question during deliberation is the appropriate sanction. The COD will decide what is the appropriate sanction or sanctions to impose. The COD will make decisions based on a majority vote. In the event of a tie, the sanction voted for by the Chair will prevail. In deliberations on sanctions, the COD may review any prior findings of responsibility of the respondent. The sanctions available are described in Section XI.
- Except as provided in Section XII and Section XIII (C) of the Rules, or where the COD makes non-binding recommendations concerning a residence hall to MIT Senior Leadership as described in Section VII, the sanctioning panel's decision is final. The Chair will usually meet with the respondent and complainant as soon as reasonably possible after the hearing. A written notice of the decision is usually provided to a respondent no later than ten business days after the hearing. This letter will be copied to MIT officials as appropriate.
- If the COD decides to make non-binding recommendations to MIT Senior Leadership concerning a residence hall (either in addition to or in lieu of traditional sanctions), it may consult with various stakeholders prior to making its recommendations. Recommendations to MIT Senior Leadership will be communicated directly to those officials. MIT Senior Leadership may meet with the parties and consult with various stakeholders prior to making a final decision. The decision of MIT Senior Leadership to accept, reject, or modify the COD's recommendations will be communicated to the parties and the COD and will be final with no appeals.
G. Record Keeping
- No recording of any kind of a sanctioning panel is allowed. No electronic devices may be used during a sanctioning panel by anyone present.
- A documentary record of the proceedings will be kept in the files of the COD. This record should consist of: (1) the complaint and respondent's response, (2) all documents submitted at the hearing, and (3) the decision letter. This record does not summarize or otherwise attempt to preserve the hearing or deliberative discussions.

I ask myself Why? Why?? Why??? WHY do I still watch The Bachelor?!?!?! I know, believe me I know, this show is dramatic, mindless, and just ridiculous television, but maybe that's what I like about it.
This season in particular I do not like the bachelor himself, I do not really care for any of the girls, I don't see any real connections… yet hear I am , 10 weeks in, watching these crazy women scream at each other about screaming at each other. The funniest part is that Fiance is sitting next to me because he too is 10 weeks in…
Every week Fiance says he does not want to watch, yet every week he sits next to me and asks "How can they all be so dumb!?" and "Why doesn't that guy ever say anything?!" We, then have our continuing conversation about what would happen if I was on the Bachelor. I'm pretty sure that I'd win. I mean I'm very competitive, and it would definitely be a competition for me."I'm not here to make friends!"
Fiance says that I'd be the girl everyone hates… I don't care though, as long I get that final rose. I've tried to convince Fiance to be the bachelor, and I'll be one of the girls. But he won't go for it.
While watching the Bachelor, I do like that I can sit hear, use my laptop to pin items on pinterest, pick up the clothes I left all over the floor this morning, eat dinner, and organize my purse. That's why I enjoy the mindless TV shows I am now addicted to. I do not actually have to watch them. I can just listen every few minutes, look up once in a while, and still be able to have a full conversation about how crazy and mean Courtney is at work the next day.
Ben's, the bachelor's, final choice comes as no surprise. At this point, we all know that he is just as crazy as his new fiancé. I am relieved it's finally over because now I will not have to skip the last half of Zumba to run home and find out who gets the date card. However, I am really going to miss waking up to watch Kelly Ripa reenact scenes from the show with her guest host.
Side note: Next season, Fiance and I have deceided to turn the Bachelor into a drinking game. So evertime someone says "vulnerable" or "guard up" we'll just take a shot. (I'm pretty sure that just "vulnerable" was used 52 times in the last episode.)
To bring this blog post to an end I just have one question:
Wait….WHAT?!?! A commercial for Dancing with the Stars just informed me that it premiers next Monday. Damn it. I guess I'll never get to finish a Monday Zumba class…

How To Finance Your MBA Degree in Canada
Does this scenario sound familiar? You've completed your degree in Business at a Canadian undergraduate institution and you graduated in the upper percentile of your class. While braving the gauntlet of your final year, preparing for final exams, you also managed to apply for an MBA at one of Canada's top business schools. Your application was well-received and now you've been accepted. But the thought that keeps popping into your head over and over is this: how will I support myself financially while I undertake this next major step in my life?
While a few lucky students might rely on the patronage of a wealthy family or an early inheritance, the vast majority of graduate school candidates must turn to other sources of funding to pay for their MBA. The information above speaks for itself. With tuition fees for MBA programs costing on average 300% more than a degree in dentistry, 600% more than a degree in engineering, and 900% more than a typical humanities degree, business students must think long and hard about how they plan to pay for their graduate studies. Luckily, if you live in Ontario, there are a number of internal and external funding options available to help you achieve that vital next step of your education in business and finance, and avoid the crippling debt that comes with student loans. Below, you'll find some financial options available to graduate students who wish to pursue an MBA in Ontario.
The Ontario Graduate Scholarship, or OGS, is one of Ontario's most well-known external financing options for students in business administration. Designed for students who have completed at least one undergraduate degree, the OGS is available to those who are planning on studying at a graduate level and obtaining a graduate degree. The OGS is a merit-based scholarship available to students of any academic discipline, and the scholarship is jointly funded by the provincial government (which provides two thirds of the finding) and the student's university (which provides the other third). The OGS is available for a minimum of one year and a maximum of two years. The value of the scholarship is $5000 per term per annum, which means that recipients will receive $5000, $10,000, or $15,000 depending on their number of active academic terms per year.
Every OntarioUniversity has its own application process, which usually opens in October of the year prior to study. This means that students are required to complete the application nearly a full year before they will begin their degree. Note also that the application will be due in December, before the end of the calendar year. This tight application window and early deadline is the first screening process the granting board uses to determine eligibility; if you aren't a forward-thinking, well-organized student, you will miss the boat on this very helpful scholarship.
Internal Academic Scholarships are also available for many students and are provided by individual universities. These awards are meant to take the place of — or complement — an external award, and are highly sought after by the student body. Top business universities, such as Wilfrid Laurier, award Graduate Incentive Scholarships which complement financial support from awards such as The OGS, NSERC, or SSHRC. Wilfrid Laurier University's graduate department also offers a number of top-up awards, which are given to top students who have already proven their merit by winning a major financial award such as The OGS or The Canadian (Master's) Graduate Scholarship. For students in the highest academic standing, there is The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies Scholarship which is awarded on a competitive basis to students entering or continuing full-time studies and who meet the highest academic standards in their respective disciplines.
To make things even easier for graduate school candidates, many universities also offer financial incentives to ambitious students who go above and beyond basic curricular expectations. Wilfrid Laurier University offers Travel and Research Awards, which allow students to travel in order to conduct advanced research training, or to attend workshops. The university also offers Travel Support for Conference Presentations, which encourages students to engage in scholarly debate and discourse outside of their classrooms.
If you are considering the pursuit of a graduate business degree at a top-notch university, remember that financing your MBA program in Canada — and especially in Ontario —is easier than you might think. With a bevy of external and internal financing options available, attending a stellar business school and acquiring that much-sought-after MBA is within your grasp.

Uniting nature and urban spaces
Tobias Boeing was a professional set designer before making the decision to start studying; it had always been clear to him that his job was only the first step to something else. He succesfully completed his studies in interior design at the AMD Hamburg (Akademie Mode & Design) in 2006, and completed it with a master degree in experimental design obtained at the Bildende Künste, Hamburg.
Tobias worked as an assistant to the Hamburger artist Florian Borkenhagen for several years during his studies. He also made some work experience as designer and original creator for several design agencies. Those experiences helped him to complete his knowledge in spaces and products design with a new interest in design research, innovative building and urban spaces.
Tobias Boeing is now a guest lecturer at the AMD Hamburg. He is one of the founding members of the Hamburger Fab Lab Faboulous St. Pauli e.V., and one of the creators and spokesman of the board at Hilldegarden e.V..
Since 2014, he has been working together with more than 50 other inspired persons to create a new concept of urban natur on the colossal bunker (Hilldegarden) at Heiligengeistfeld in Hamburg, both volunteering and part of a financed coordinators team. It is the perfect place for Tobias to express both his knowledge in design and his visionary experience in urban and natural spaces.

Saw an article today on CNET (http://www.cnet.com/news/japanese-company-plans-space-elevator-by-2050) about space elevators and it hit me, "I bet a lot of my readers didn't know that was a thing." Did you know that space elevators have been theorized as the best way to make space travel routine for some time now? I didn't just make them up to be weird.
So much of the stuff in the Bodhi trilogy I didn't make up. From nanotechnology (http://www.sciencedaily.com/articles/n/nanomedicine.htm) to promote longevity to shape changing reptilian royal families (http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/vida_alien/esp_vida_alien_29.htm) to Djwhal Khul (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djwal_Khul) to just about everything in the book! While the story and presentation of these ideas are wholly my own, I very much tried to make a series that would serve as a master class of mythology, Western mysticism, popular conspiracy theory, and transhumanist speculation.
How much of the Bodhi trilogy did you recognize as having a grounding in something and how much did you think I'd just invented whole hog? With just the few links above, are you surprised to see them? Did you already know all these?

21 photos from a Sunday in Edinburgh./
Another Sunday, of another month, in another town; I woke up in Edinburgh before the sun has started its journey over the North Sea.
And so, covered up in all the clothes I could get my hands on (I have found that if there is one thing Aberdeen has over Edinburgh, it is definitely the milder climate... well, at least for winter), I began making my way towards Arthurs Seat.
(Guess where the quest of wanting to do that comes from - hello Jennifer!!)
Things Edinburgh has over Aberdeen tho: EPIC PANORAMIC VIEWS! (The view from Broad Hill is not really the same thing... )
... And a cultural life, and beautiful buildings, and trams... This could take a while.
Of course, I was on the wrong side of the ol volcano when the sun began to reveal its presence so I made a quick u-turn.
In one direction I had a pinkish orange sunrise, and behind me a rainbow. Dreamy, huh?! Was very pleased with my decision to be an early bird.
Afterwards I woke J up in the hostel and we headed out once again in the crispy Edinburgh morning. On the breakfast hunt, ending up at Moon & Hare. You can read the entire list of where we ate in Edinburgh here.
Continuing through town, we ended up in Dean Village.
A former village that has now been immersed by the city.
We ended the evening with vegan pizza and crème brûlée at Nova, before heading to the cinema for Trainspotting 2. J wrote a Facebook status along the lines* of "Pretty fun to watch Trainspotting in Edinburgh, it's like watching The Goodfellas in New York, Jaws on a boat or La la land in La la land" (*ok that was a complete copy/paste).

If I had to pick the best decision my cousin Matt ever made it would hands down be marrying Kristen! She completed that side of our family tree & I love her dearly. [I love Matt too]. When they announced they were pregnant with their first child a few years ago I was ecstatic. Stella was due a couple of months after Coach & I were married and it completed my summer. I drove to Arkansas to be there for one of her showers and when they told us they were expecting again I knew I wanted to make another trip!
During a random phone conversation with my aunt she mentioned the shower date. On a whim I checked flights to Little Rock and right away booked myself a seat & then sent them all a text basically inviting myself for the weekend and to the shower. Stella & I both started counting down almost immediately and while it took time away from work and a drive to Dallas it was 100% worth it.
My plane was scheduled to leave Dallas at 4:05 but we were overbooked & therefore late taking off. I sat with two men who are incredibly involved with public education in Arkansas and the flight passed quickly. The minute I hit baggage claim Stella was hugging me & refusing to let go. I haven't seen this little girl since my younger brother graduated from high school last May. Major props to her parents & Mimi for being intentional about her knowing about her Texas branch of the family. That welcome to Arkansas was for sure Top Three moments of the weekend. When I saw my grandparents sitting in baggage claim I teared up a bit. My Papwaw turns 83 this month and every time I visit I am reminded of what a blessing it is to spend time with both him & my Mamwaw.
We had a great dinner out with each other and went to my grandparents to sleep. An extra special treat was that my aunt stayed at my grandparents for the weekend as well. I have a special relationship with her and it was great to spend time together.
Saturday morning my grandmother cooked a big breakfast and we headed to the shower for Braydon & his mama. Some of my grandmother's friends attended as well and I loved being loved on by them. We capped off our Saturday out with lunch as a family and somehow convinced Stella's parents we should keep her for the night! It was an afternoon of playtime & coloring with my girl. Popcorn and a Hallmark movie ended our night before Stella couldn't keep her eyes open any longer.
Saying "see-ya later" to my family is always difficult and I am so glad Stella was asleep when they pulled up to the airport drop! A teary-eyed Mamwaw and brave faced Papwaw was hard enough to take. Thankfully my aunt kept me laughing as I went to check in.
Stella has a dance recital in June and I am already scheming of how I can make a return trip in time to see her dance. Coach & I have decided that a trip once a quarter is absolutely a necessary thing from now on.
Celebrating milestones wth family is such a blessing! Grateful to have been there to celebrate a new life coming soon. Till next time,

Selecting the Mercury Seven: The Search for America's First Astronauts
The names of the seven Mercury astronauts were announced in April 1959 amid a flurry of publicity and patriotism. This work provides biographical details of all thirty-two finalists for the seven coveted places as America's pioneering astronauts. All of the candidates were among the nation's elite pilots involved in testing new supersonic aircraft capabilities. Most had served as wartime fighter and bomber pilots; some were test pilots on top secret and sophisticated aviation projects, while others were fleet admirals, prisoners of war, and proposed pilots for spaceflight programs such as the Dyna-Soar (X-20). The names of all 32 finalists have been kept secret until very recently. "Selecting the Mercury Seven" also relates the history and difficulties behind the initial choice of candidates. The lives, motivations, military careers, and achievements of the unsuccessful twenty-five finalists are explored first in fully authorized biographies. Test pilots for the U.S. Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps, each man has a fascinating and very different story to tell. All thirty-two men had to endure meticulous, demeaning, and brutal week-long medical examinations at the Lovelace Clinic in New Mexico. This was followed by another torturous week at the Wright Aeromedical Laboratory in Ohio, where they were subjected to extreme fitness and physiological testing, the sole purpose of which was to sort out the Supermen from the near-supermen. The final part of the book examines the accomplishments and spaceflights of the seven successful candidates, bringing their amazing stories right up to date.

Christmas Poems and VersesMany of these Christmas poems and verses are short but all of them send messages of the season. Christmas is a time to make contact with those whom you may have lost contact with over the year. Use these to express good wishes to all.
Christmas Songs
Poet: Julie Hebert, � 2011
Christmas songs are so much fun,
I love to sing all year long.
The problem is my friends can't stand them,
I wish they'd sing along.
I know they think they should be saved,
For Christmas time at best.
But why not practice them all year,
I don't understand their request!
Christmas songs are so darn catchy,
I couldn't possibly just forget.
They will just have to get over it,
And sing with me a duet!
Red, Green and Tinsel
Poet: Julie Hebert, � 2011
So much to love about Christmas,
Who could ever say they don't.
Red and green everywhere,
How Christmas is so well known.
We love to see the houses,
Decorated so festively.
Tinsel so very shinny,
Can't wait to see my Christmas tree.
Can't forget the presents,
Under the big colorful tree.
Every year there's more than expected,
I'm so lucky, that is me.
What Christmas Is All About
Poet: Julie Hebert, � 2011
We have to go back to the basics,
The day our Jesus was born.
As this is the day that we celebrate,
Our Savior was here in the morn.
We teach our children that Christmas,
Is trees, pageants and presents.
But let us not forget,
Christmas is Jesus event!
More Christmas verses and short poems:
Let Christmas not become a thing
Merely of merchant's trafficking,
Of tinsel, bell and holly wreath
And surface pleasure, but beneath
The childish glamour, let us find
Nourishment for soul and mind.
Let us follow kinder ways
Through our teeming human maze,
And help the age of peace to come
From a Dreamer's martyrdom.
Madeline Morse
A Christmas candle is a lovely thing;
It makes no noise at all,
But softly gives itself away;
While quite unselfish, it grows small.
Eva K. Logue
What is Christmas?
It is tenderness for the past,
courage for the present,
hope for the future.
It is a fervent wish that
every cup may overflow with blessings rich and eternal,
and that every path may lead to peace.
Agnes M. Pahro
'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring - not even a mouse:
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there.
Clement C. Moore
From home to home, and heart to heart,
from one place to another.
The warmth and joy of Christmas
brings us closer to each other.
Emily Matthews
At Christmas
A man is at his finest towards the finish of the year;
He is almost what he should be when the Christmas season's here;
Then he's thinking more of others than he's thought the months before,
And the laughter of his children is a joy worth toiling for.
He is less a selfish creature than at any other time;
When the Christmas spirit rules him he comes close to the sublime...
Edgar Guest
Love came down at Christmas,
Love all lovely, Love Divine;
Love was born at Christmas;
Star and angels gave the sign.
Christina Rossetti
Wishing you all the season's best
May it be one that you feel blessed
We hope the holidays are joyous ones
For you and all your sons.
K. Summers
Hope Santa brings
all those special things
But most of all
May it be the best Christmas you can recall.
S. Hudson
Christmas gift suggestions:
To your enemy, forgiveness.
To an opponent, tolerance.
To a friend, your heart.
To a customer, service.
To all, charity.
To every child, a good example.
To yourself, respect.
Oren Arnold

Elder abuse in Illinois has increased by 53% since 1993 according to the Illinois Department on Aging. In 2007, 9,489 complaints of elder abuse were reported. Unfortunately, the department estimates that upwards of 90,000 cases of elder and nursing home abuse go unreported each year. As the population of Illinoisans over 60 is expected to rise above 3.7 million by 2030, this means that a staggering number of elder abuse cases could go unreported in the near future.
The new law will encourage individual counties to create task forces on elder abuse and will allow investigators to share sensitive patient information with team members, helping to shed light on often unreported cases of abuse. The new Illinois task forces will involve collaboration between medical examiners' offices, state's attorneys' offices, county sheriffs, and the Illinois Department of Public Health and Department of Aging.

Lexington man indicted for allegedly killing friend, burning the corpse
A Lexington man was indicted by a Fayette County grand jury Tuesday for allegedly shooting his friend in the head and setting the body on fire.
Sidney Lane Williams Jr., 36, is charged with murder, tampering with physical evidence and abuse of a corpse. He is accused of killing Victor Lamont Martin, 39, last year. Martin's body was found burning in a driveway on Russell Cave Road on Aug. 14.
According to the indictment, Williams "intentionally treated a corpse in a way that would outrage family sensibilities."
Martin and Williams had worked together at Aichi Forge in Georgetown. Police have said Williams told them he shot Martin after the two argued at Williams' home. Martin was using drugs at the house after Williams asked him not to, he said.
Williams also was indicted on a persistent felony offender charge because of two convictions on drug, assault and firearms charges.
Williams is being held at the Fayette County jail in lieu of a $510,500 bond. He is scheduled to be arraigned June 2.
