Recovery from my eating disorder has been a long and ongoing process, but it's definitely something I know will be able to overcome when the time comes.
This week is National Eating Disorder Awareness Week and I cannot tell you how important it is to me to help bring awareness to everyone, young or old, female or male, about how dangerous eating disorders can be. According to NEDA:
"Our aim of NEDAwareness Week is to ultimately prevent eating disorders and body image issues while reducing the stigma surrounding eating disorders and improving access to treatment. Eating disorders are serious, life-threatening illnesses — not choices — and it's important to recognize the pressures, attitudes and behaviors that shape the disorder."
I'll be talking about Eating Disorders throughout the week in different ways and I hope you will join me in spreading the awareness!
Anyhow, I really liked what Caitlin asked of her readers today on her blog:
List 10 Awesome Things About Yourself!
1. I'm determined in everything I do.
2. I never, well, try to never think "I can't".
3. I'm organized.
4. I'm good as saving money.
5. I am opening up to new people and experiences.
6. I'm a good baker/dessert maker.
7. I enjoy educating people about what I love when they want to hear about it.
8. I'm a great sister to my younger twin brothers.
9. I am taking time and effort to take better care of my body.
10. I do the simple things that make people happy: like putting dishes away from the dishwasher.
Are you interested in my meals from this weekend? Some are regulars, some are new! Probably not all around interesting…but tasty!
Oh, look at the giveaway I won!!! Miss Lindsay from Learning to Cook, Eat and Enjoy Delicious Food sent me an awesome package full of my favorite bars and a cute heart bowl!!!
You know you'll be seeing those soon!
So yesterday at lunch I was craving a wrap, with lots of hummus.
LOTS of hummus. Along with a totally not ripe enough mango and a carrot.
I'm more excited about my dinner from last night though! I was seriously looking forward to it all day.
- 3 bean mix (pinto, black and kidney) in marinara sauce
- Italian roasted veggies (zucchini, mushroom, onion, asparagus, broccoli)
- Bulgar wheat
I might have died and went to dinner heaven. Too bad bulgar doesn't hold me over very long like rice or bread does. What is up with my body and carbs? Only certain ones keep me full? Eep. What keeps you full the most? I need help finding filling foods!!!
We had plans this morning for nice bike ride out in the Everglades so I knew I was going to need a filling and of course yummy breakfast: Banana Cinnamon Peanut Butter Oatmeal.
We headed out to Shark Valley to hit up the 15 mile trail there. It's usually full of tourists, but we got there and finished just before everything started to get crowded.
Oh yeah, and gawk fest, (please don't think I'm crazy, I swear I did this for the blog!) we saw a guy that looked EXACTLY LIKE ORLANDO BLOOM. No joke…it totally could have been him, if he weren't so short…I might have taken a picture of him…in the green. Eep.
That 15 miler on the bike did over my appetite! I was famished when I got home and dug into my lunch. I toasted some whole wheat bread w/ hummus, topped with tomatoes and leftover roasted veggies, with a side of two carrots and some fruit on the side.
And for my afternoon snack before doing my Core Fusion DVD I had a Chocolate Pumpkin Muffin! I also had some roasted cashews…and an apple.
After working out to the DVD (holy cracker I'm going to be soar, just like last time) and messing with the shower drain that won't drain and unclog after copious amounts of dran-o, I started on din din!!
Flat out pizza!!!
I topped mine with marinara, a veggie burger mixed with the small amount of beans leftover from yesterday, veggies and some sharp cheddar cheese…Sooooo good.
Sorry for the long epic post! It's been a weekend…
Hope you all had an awesome weekend! Tell me about it! Or, I'm sure I'll read about it on your blog…hehe!

A more secure consumer?
The Deloitte Consumer Review – fourth edition
The Deloitte Consumer Review series aims to provide an insightful and impartial view of selected consumer trends that we believe will have a significant impact on Consumer businesses.
In our fourth edition, we look at how businesses need to rethink their cyber security strategy from the perspective of the consumer. Beyond responding to the growing regulatory pressures and the revenue loss risk, businesses can capitalise on cyber security by building a more open dialogue with consumers around cyber security resulting in higher levels of engagement, trust and conversion.
Key findings
- 87% of consumers claimed to have thought about being targeted by cyber criminals;
- Nearly 4.6 million UK consumers have had details stolen to buy goods online;
- One in three victims of 'cybersquatting' stopped dealing with companies they thought were responsible;
- Less than half of consumers trust companies to tell the truth about the quality of their data security procedures;
- 88% say it's the responsibility of the companies who collect their data to keep it secure and protect them from fraud;
- Three quarters are prepared to go through more security checks despite the additional burden;
- Two thirds of consumers said they were more likely to use companies that went out of their way to show customers they kept their information safe.

Discussion in 'Samsung Galaxy S3' started by SamsungQQ11, Apr 23, 2013.
Should I hold on to the Galaxy 3 or should I get the Galaxy 4?
There will be ROMs based off of the S4's system that will bring some of the new software features to the S3. The S3 is also supposed to get a lot of them via OTA anyway, but who knows how long that will take. This is a great video Wicked posted over at our sister site, Samsung Galaxy S4 Forum, comparing the two with regard to day to day usage and features - it should answer a lot of your questions, but it will boil down to how important some of the improvements are to you:
I think not, the improvement is not dramatic over the S3.
For me the 1080p screen is going to be awesome . I'm going to get the s4 and give my wife my s3.
I won't be!!
Still love my GS3. People are AMAZED at how customized it is. In fact a lot of people can't use it because they accidentally open things or move to another page or something. And when iPhone users see all the widgets I have, and realize they have to go into settings or open an app to do the same thing....the way they try to hide the jealousy...it's great...
Point being I have absolutely no reason to upgrade unless I want to feel cool with the latest and greatest. I've done this a lot in the past and what I've learned is.....it's not worth it. Wait about 4-5 months for initial reviews/problems/fixes. You might find the S4 is just a flashier S3. Sure NOW it sounds way more advanced, but the X2 was supposed to blow the X out of the water.
Yeah, that didn't happen...
I'm waiting fpr the note 3
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Droid Forums
I think the IR blaster is one of the coolest things, and if I could afford it I would get it just for that. No more handling sketchy hotel remotes, or yelling at the kids when they hide my home remote. The screen will be awesome I am sure, but i would be surprised if it really makes much of a difference on such a small screen. There really just isn't much that the S3 is lacking, and I wont upgrade till Bid Red forces me out of my unlimited plan. But props to those that can always have the newest super-phone.
I have to respectfully dis-agree. The SGS4 has a full 1080 HD display, 13 MP Camera, and a Quad-core processor. Thats a pretty dramatic improvement in my humble opinion.
I got both the Droid DNA and Note 2 when they came out. There is a VERY noticable difference between the 1080 display on the DNA, and the lower res Note 2. It's surprisingly noticeable.
Hey... When will the S5 get here?:blink:
Love my s3 too but o am a cell phone fanatic. Haha. Gonna have to grab either the s4 or HTC one.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
The deal breaker (for me right now) is that you can only get the S4 in 16GB where you can get the S3 in 16,32,64 GB versions. For a phone of this caliber 16GB is a "no win". I understand you can put a 64GB micro in it but only so much can go on it. Hell, 6 GB of the 16 GB is already eaten up by OS and bloatware. (YES, I have the Note 2 that only has 16GB of onboard storage....that is what I don't like about it)
Now if they offer a 32 or 64 GB S4 then I will likely get one.
Did the S3 start out only being offered in 16GB? Does anyone remember?
As far as I remember the s3 was available in 16, 32 & 64 right from the get go.
Sent from my Galaxy S3
We just switched to T-Mobile and I'm trying out the HTC One. 14 days to swap it out for the S4 (comes next week) or other device, or keep obviously! I'm extremely impressed with it so far, it's an incredible device. Just FWIW...
Yeah I'm leaving Verizon to try T-Mobile too. Cant decide between HTC one or s4. I've had s3 since launch so might try HTC for a different feel.
Sent from my Galaxy S3
14 days / $50 restocking fee to swap it out, just FYI. I think it's worth a try unless you're hooked on Samsung's software, feel, etc. Maybe check One (ha!) out in the store for a bit if you haven't already. It's the only Android device I've ever had that had that same premium feel to it as an iPhone, and the software is very very smooth and snappy. But last night I got out my Verizon S3 to prep it to sell and found myself feeling comforted by the familiar look and feel of the OS... lol, if that makes any sense.
If you're into rooting / romming at all, it's super easy to root since you can officially unlock the bootloader via htcdev.com. You'll find the freedoms like that on T-Mobile very refreshing vs. Verizon.
OK so I picked up the HTC one yesterday on T-Mobile. Great device but unfortunately tmobiles customer service is lacking. Due to a number porting issue and lack of a solution I am staying with big red. Guess I'll wait for the s4! Kinda prefer Sammy anyway.
Sent from my Galaxy S3
I have to agree with you on this 100%. I remember when I wanted the X2.. and I quickly found out it was a waste of money. I'm faced with the same situation between the S3 and S4. I can't find any good reason for me to ditch my S3 ans go get an S4. For me, the phones are identical. The screen resolution means nothing to me. I don't watch movies on my phone.. I have a tablet for that. The processor speed? I can get my S3 faster than the S4 with the Synergy rom. IMO, if you have an S3 akready just stick with it. You're going to end up paying more for a phone that does the same exact thing.
Sent from my Synergized S3
Rom it! Get all that crap off of it. Save your memory for pics, music, and vids. You'll love your phone even more once you have a rom on it. The S3 comes in 16 and 32. I have the 16... no issues once I got verizon's crap off.
Sent from my Synergized S3
There is a massive hardware difference in the s3 and s4. The s4 hardware difference is night and day.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using Tapatalk 2
I said FOR ME there is no difference. I didn't say that there wasn't a difference in general. IMO there is no difference for what I use this phone for.

Best of the Lazy Susans... Er... The Busy Susans!
Lately "Lazy Susans" have been popping up in my life with people asking about them, and me needing to do more research on them. It's a trend. So let's begin.
Lazy Susan evolved as a common term in the late 19th century - around the time of the "dumbwaiter" - as new devices emerged which seemed to replace the work of servants. How the word "Susan" came to substitute for "servant" is a mystery, and sometimes attributed to one of the two Thomas's daughters, Jefferson and Edison, but historians have never confirmed this. In short, we don't know who Susan was, but we do know that our readers take umbrage with the term and would prefer it to be called a BUSY SUSAN. Read on...

How To Be a Great Host: 13 Tips
Between high school and college I went to school in England and stayed often with a family in London. The parents, Tim and Caroline Gladstone, were the kindest and best hosts I've ever encountered. Whenever I rang their doorbell, Caroline would greet me, welcome me right in the door with my dirty backpack from the train station or airport, and ask me whether I wanted to eat first or wash up. While this seemed like an odd question the first time I showed up at their door, I soon realized that it was the BEST one and accurately captured the two greatest areas of need or discomfort I could possibly have upon any arrival. For the record, I usually took the bath.

Child & Adult Care Food Program
Communication is important with food service vendors
More and more child and adult care centers are contracting with food service vendors or schools to prepare some or all of the meals served at their centers. Many factors contribute to the decision to contract for meals. Lack of adequate meal preparation facilities, cost and convenience are just a few of the reasons centers contract for meals.
Just because a center contracts for meals, this does not eliminate the responsibility of complying with regulations governing the Child and Adult Care Food Program. It is important for center personnel to be familiar with the meal pattern requirements of the CACFP to assure that children and adult participants are served creditable and reimbursable meals. Remember - if your contractor does not provide a creditable meal you may not claim reimbursement if the meal pattern is not met.
During compliance reviews, our staff occasionally finds contracted meals that do not meet the meal pattern requirement. Deductions are made for these meals. By being aware of the CACFP meal pattern requirements and communicating with your contractor, you can avoid these deductions. The standard food service contract provided by Nutrition Services stipulates that the contractee will NOT pay for meals that do not meet meal pattern requirements or that have been disallowed for reimbursement by state agency or federal reviewers.
Q: What should I do if the meal delivered by my contractor does not meet CACFP meal pattern requirements?
A: Notify your contact person at the food service management company/school immediately that the meal does not meet CACFP meal pattern requirements. If time allows, the contractor may be able to provide the necessary component(s) for a reimbursable meal. If the contractor is not able to provide the required component(s), your center does NOT have to pay for that meal. It's a good idea to notify your contractor in writing of the date of the meal service and the deficiencies in the meal provided. Include a statement that the center will not pay for meals that do not meet CACFP meal pattern requirements, as per your contract. You may not claim incomplete meals for reimbursement.
Q: Can I claim the meal for reimbursement if I supplement a deficient contracted meal with foods on hand at my center?
A: Yes, if the meal pattern requirements are met for all food components. Recently a reviewer from our staff encountered a situation during a compliance review where the contractor had delivered the meal to the center, but dropped an entire tray of cornbread during the delivery. The contractor did not have enough cornbread to complete the meal. For illustration purposes, let's say the contractor provided 75 meals that met the meal pattern requirements and 25 that did not. The center was not obligated to pay the contractor for the number of meals that were not provided by the contractor - in this example, 25. The center had several loaves of bread on hand, which were served to the children who did not receive cornbread. Therefore, all of the meals were eligible to be claimed for reimbursement.
Q: My center is in a small community. The contractor is the only viable source for meals in this town. I don't want them to get mad at me if I say I'm not going to pay for the meals. What can I do?
A: It's important that you and your contractor have an understanding of the federal regulations and requirements of the contract up front. Make sure that the contractor has a copy of the federal regulations which specify the meal pattern requirements , a copy of the Food Chart, and the resource book Crediting Foods in the Child and Adult Care Food Program . Contact Nutrition Services if you need additional copies of these resources. Agree to a month's worth of menus or a set of cycle menus up front. Point out to the contractor before the contract is signed that you are not able to pay for meals that do not meet the meal pattern requirement. You may want to arrange for the contractor to supply extra bread and canned fruits and vegetables for you to have on hand as a back-up, in case a component might be overlooked and not delivered. The main thing is to make sure that you and your contractor have agreed to this in the beginning - before any potential problems may arise. Your responsibility is to provide a reimbursable meal for the participants at your center.
Q: What does the contractor have to do for CACFP paperwork?
A: The contractor must maintain records to document food production and other obligations the contractee (the center) may need to meet its CACFP responsibilities under 7 CFR 226.6(i)(5). These records must be available for inspection and/or audit by representatives of the Department of Education, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the U.S. General Accounting Office and the USDA Office of Inspector General. These records must be retained for a period of three years from the date of receipt of final payment under the contract, or in cases where an audit remains unresolved, until such time as the audit is resolved. The contractor is not required to use the production records required by Nutrition Services for centers preparing their own meals.
Q: What if the contractor delivers food that is spoiled or otherwise unfit to serve?
A: By all means, do NOT serve any unwholesome foods to your participants. The center has the right to inspect and determine the quality of food delivered and reject any meals which do no comply with the requirements and specifications of the contract. The contractor shall not be paid for unauthorized menu changes, incomplete meals, meals not delivered within the specified delivery time period, meals which are spoiled or unwholesome at the time of delivery, potentially hazardous foods delivered between the temperature of 45 F - 140 F, and meals rejected because they do not comply with the specifications. The center shall notify the contractor in writing as to the number of meals rejected and the reasons for the rejection.
Q: Can the Department of Education intervene if I have problems with my contractor?
A: No. The Department of Education does not have an agreement with the contractor, only with participating institutions. It is your responsibility to resolve any problems you have with your contractor. The food service contracts may be terminated by either party upon submission to the other party of written notice at least 30 days prior to the date of termination. A copy of the termination letter must be sent to the Department of Education.
If you have specific questions regarding your food service contract, contact Nutrition Services toll free at (800) 731-2233 or (402) 471-2488 in Lincoln.

Images of the major rivers of Asia – including the mighty Mekong that snakes through Southeast Asia and the Ganges and other revered rivers that bisect the subcontinent – might seem at odds with the sobering fact that Asia is the world's driest…

Poverty, Inequality, and the Negative Effects of Mongolia's Economic Downturn
June 25, 2014
For the last four years, Mongolia has had one of the fastest growing economies in the world, clocking double-digit growth on the back of a mining boom. The effects of this growth are obvious, especially in the capital, Ulaanbaatar, where cranes dominate the skyline…

Photo Blog: Critical Issue – Poverty and Inequality
June 25, 2014
Despite the region's dramatic growth, income inequality across much of Asia is rising, and poverty remains a stubborn issue to overcome. Some 700 million people across the region live on less than $1 a day. In response, governments are taking on urgent policy reforms needed to create jobs and foster inclusive growth…

Participatory Urban Planning Takes Hold in Mongolia
May 7, 2014
Mongolia's economic boom, coupled with harsh winters that have killed off cattle and traditional livelihoods, have made the country's rural, pastoralist lifestyle less attractive and economically viable. As rural residents flood to the capital, Ulaanbaatar, in search of work, city residents now account for one-half of Mongolia's total population, up from one-quarter only 25 years ago. But 60 percent of those city residents live in the ger districts that surround the capital, without access to basic services such as electricity and water. Given this rapid growth, the government has not been able to develop adequate planning for the soaring ger developments.

24 hours in on the journey to having an established sorority tank! I got some pictures of some of the girls who wouldn't let me get pictures earlier. Only one nip is visible on any of the fish, and you can see how very slight it is in Twilight Sparkle's (the purple fish, yes the sorority girls are named after mlp characters) tail above.

My phone's have to be some hardy motherfuckers due to the abuse I give them, either falling out of my shirt pocket when I bend over or me flinging them across the house or yard or store when I get pissed at whoever I was talking to.
I've had my current phone for over 2 years now, setting some kind of record, but the age is showing on it - cracked screen, some buttons that have to be pushed harder than others, a battery cover and battery that pops out on their own, speaker that works when it wants to and finally, turning off and on at will.
So the other day Lisa gets a deal in the mail from AT&T saying that Kenneth is eligible for a new phone upon renewal of my contract with AT&T and she basically tells me that she's getting a little tired of me bitching about my phone and just go down and get another one, after all it's free, right?
Let me interrupt real quick and mention how much I hate dealing with all the big phone companies - anything that can be done over the phone by one salesman that speaks passable english in 5 minutes is now made easier by having to go through a half dozen motherfuckers in the wrong departments in the wrong countries and now it only takes a half a day.
The phone store is no easier.
Okay, so I walk in there with an attitude - a resigned attitude, that is. This is something that has to be done, there's no getting around it, let's just get this shit over with.
The very first thing that I notice is that all their 'free' phones are cheap pieces of shit that wouldn't last a week with me. For one thing, I need a keyboard instead of one of those taptap things to text because my fingers are kinda sorta stiff and clumsy anymore. I also need something big enough that I don't lose it when I pull down my pants to take a dump, yet small enough that it'll fit in my pocket and be carried comfortably while I'm working. Plus the motherfuckers can't be very aerodynamic or I'd never be able to find it after I'm done talking to my mother.
I start looking around and the phones that fit most of my needs all run about 50 bucks with a contract which is just about what I figured I was going to have to spend on my 'free' phone.
Finally a salesman comes up and starts getting all of my information. Then he tells me after we go though all the bullshit that I have a balance on my bill of $137 that isn't due until the 27th, but it needs to be paid in full in order to renew my contract.
Wait a minute. I need to pay my balance that isn't due yet in order for me to continue to give you my business (money) for another 2 years? And then throw down another 50 bucks for a 'free' phone? Plus God only knows how many wasted hours and headaches dealing with piss poor customer service? All for a phone that I use less than 100 minutes a month? Almost $200 for a phone that I will use for maybe 1 call a day and a couple of texts? Are you fucking kidding me?
So I thanked the young man for his time (yes, I was polite and courteous - it wasn't his fault) and walked out. Tomorrow morning I will spend my half day on the phone with At&T to cancel my service, then I will go down and buy another throwaway phone from Radio Shack and 20 bucks worth of minutes that will last me all fucking month. Total cost - 25 US Dollars.

DJ Bryan is the most awesome DJ. He is definitely the one I will call for my next FL event. My wedding was a crazy mix of Jamaican and Peruvian. He managed to get all the family on the floor. Also half way thru we all decided to head inside and our wonderful DJ packed up and moved with us. I have the utmost appreciation for this mans skills and dedication. Also even after the wedding he is still prompt on his responses. Love DJ Bryan, I would give him my highest recommendation with no hesitations.

Brian was amazing. Due to technical issues at our rehersal dinner we decided to have a slideshow at the wedding reception. Brian stepped up and helped get everything set-up and arranged music to play during the slide-show last minute. He played great music that got the guests onto the dance floor. I wish we would have had a few more slow songs but we would definatly hire Brian again!!

I would very highly recommend Iyrus Entertainment!! We used their photography and videographer services Will, Photographer and Jake, videographer, and their assistants were professional, personal and truly amazing. I could never say enough wonderful things about them. I had the unique opportunity to help plan my daughter and her fiancées destination wedding. I live in the area where they planned to be married. So I had most of the contact with Will and Jake, They were easy and fun to work with as well as prompt with responding to my many e-mails and calls before and after the wedding date.
The wedding was a long day with Will and Jake starting at about noon to 11pm way more than typical all day coverage. The bride and groom had multiple locations that they were planning to take pictures. Will and Jake and their assistants were very flexible with this.
When you see the photos and video they take you back to showing you those intimate moments, magical moments, the laughter, tears of joy, the special glances and emotions showing many feelings. They captured both the bride and grooms personalities and those of our guests. You will get stunning, breathtaking beautiful amazing photos and video with different angles and techniques. The many different, fun and unusual dance floor snippets were even integrated. Jake put together an awesome video of the entire day worthy of a wedding Oscar.
We couldn't have asked for anything more! It is without hesitation that we recommend Iyrus Entertainment to capture your day. They are not only outstanding photographers, but they are wonderful people. You will enjoy working with them, I promise! Just hire them now.

We had Brian as our wedding DJ and he was great! I have a difficult time picking music that pleases everyone so I just gave him genre's I wanted (ex: sinatra, big band and classics for dinner; fun hits for dancing) and he did an amazing job. He didn't play anything I didn't want and he had an easy form to fill out for the flow of the evening. His music was the entertainment for the entire evening. We all had a great time and all guests were on the dance floor (even our grandparents in their 80's were dancing all night)! Very professional and I love that he live mixed all the music, which makes him stand out from the other DJs we interviewed. Would definitely use him again.

I would highly recommend Iyrus Entertainment! We used their photography, videography and DJ services and were very pleased! Using all three services together was very convenient for us and made our whole wedding day run smoothly. Will was able to capture some amazing photos at our outdoor wedding venue. Jake put together an awesome video of the wedding for us to enjoy. And DJ Brian did a great job keeping things running smoothly and everyone on their feet dancing! Great Job Guys!!

DJ Randy recently provided DJ services for our wedding at the Sunset Beach House in Treasure Island, Fl. He did an awesome job making sure to incorporate our ideas and wishes while still adding his own expertise. He was completely professional and made sure everyone was happy. He took requests from the guests, but made sure it was ok with us. I asked for specific songs for the ceremony and he made to play those specific songs. He's also a club DJ and got everyone dancing later into the reception by mixing different, fun songs. I would definitely recommend Iyrus Ent., particularly DJ Randy, to anyone getting married or hosting an event. Awesome, awesome job. :D

All of the guys at Iyrus were amazing! They all listened to exactly what I wanted and executed it perfectly. My husband and I don't listen to much "dance" music so we struggled to assist Randy in a musical selection that would get the crowd going. Fortunately, he didn't need too much help from us and managed to make it fun without playing all the standard wedding songs.
Jake and Will worked great together. They were both exactly where they needed to be without stepping on each others toes or offending my overbearing family members.

Iyrus Entertainment delivered more than I could have asked for. I appreciate the professional and personal service. Our DJ, Randy Johnson was amazing. He truly personalized the music to our style and all the music played was connected to who we actually are. Randy kept the mood going and handled all parts of the events at the perfect timing. The Videographer, Sawyer was also very professional and never even knew he was there. When we talked with Sawyer he made me completely at ease and I even laughed a few time. I high encourage you to use Iyrus Entertainment and guarantee you will not be disappointed.

I booked Iyrus Entertainment for photography and DJ services. I met with Will (photo) and Brian (DJ) and found they were very personable and willing to help with anything on my wedding day. I was able to view many of Will's photos and found his style fit me perfectly. Brian gave me the date of a few of his upcoming weddings that (once getting the Okay from the bride and groom) allowed me to come and listen to him in action. Being able to hear him in person was such a great way to see Brian at work. I was not at all disappointed with how my wedding day worked out. My guests and myself loved how wonderfully the DJ sounded and was able to get everyone off their feet and onto the dance floor. There was always a full dance floor! Will arrived early to get set up and also allowed for some extra pictures for me =) we had multiple locations we were shooting in and he and his assistant were very flexible and I got so many amazing pictures! I am very happy with this company. They were friendly and helpful through the whole process. I wouldn't have gone with any other company.

We had the great pleasure of having Lyrus Entertainment provide us with the DJ and Photographer for our sons wedding. From the moment we had our first meeting with them until the end of the wedding reception. Everything was so professional and just perfect. Will the photographer was so awesome to work with! You never even knew he was around. He captured every moment so we can relive that special day over and over! The DJ was just as fabulous! From the fun way he announced the bridal to the last dance of the night...the music didn't stop! It was great having them working together so we could just enjoy ourselves. We are still getting compliments on how fun our wedding was! The best part is we the parents didn't have a thing to worry about and were able to enjoy our kids wedding!
If you are looking for a professional photographer, DJ or videographer I HIGHLY recommend Lyrus Entertainment. You'll be glad you called!

Jake with Iyrus Entertainment is hands down the best videographer in the Tampa/St.Petersburg area. He is a professional who produces amazing work. As I remember my big day I'm surprised how fast the day went by one minute I'm getting ready then I blinked it was over. Jake truly captured the magic of our special day and I cannot thank him enough for creating such a great video I will have for years to come. I highly recommend Iryus Entertainment they are a team of creative genius who will preserve your precious memories for life.

Brian at Iyrus Entertainment did such an amazing job as a DJ, and everything was set up so beautifully and the music I could not have asked for a better wedding than what Brian gave to me and my bride Janine.
He had great energy, passion, competence and professionalism. Brian was always there for us, responded quickly to every question whether it be email, text or phone. He was devoted to every single detail of the music. He exceeded all of our expectations! I truly could not have had this beautiful wedding if it were not for him.
I wish I had another occasion to have them help me with :-)

With two active kids, I need all the energy I can get. Add in training for a half marathon and working full time, and I'm desperate for energy. When another cup of coffee just doesn't cut it, try a protein-packed (and homemade!) sugar-free energy bar. These take just a few minutes to whip up and can store in the fridge for several days. They'd also be a great breakfast or snack when traveling.
No-Bake Oatmeal Peanut Butter Energy Bars
1/4 cup coconut oil
1 cup natural peanut butter
1/2 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup chia or flax seed
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
Line the bottom and sides of a 9×9 or 11×7 baking dish with parchment paper.
In a medium saucepan on low heat, melt the coconut oil, peanut butter and honey until smooth, stirring occasionally. Fold in remaining ingredients.
Pour mixture into prepared baking dish, and refrigerate for 1-2 hours or until firm. Remove parchment from pan and cut into bars.

These look delicious, and I have everything on hand to make them! I found you through Sharefest. Have a GREAT weekend!
Those look yummy! Can't wait to drive them. Stopping by from SITS!
Oh yum! I love all these ingredients. We'll have to keep them away from the peanut allergic kid, but I don't think they will last long anyway.
OMG! These sound delish! I think these would be great for the kiddos because you know exactly what they are getting. I wonder if the recipe can be modified to exclude the honey and chocolate chips and include something else like some sort of fruit.
Oh, and happy SITS Sharefest!
I was wondering, have you tried freezing them? I like to make large batches of things (5 kids) and freeze some for later so I am hoping I can double or triple this and store some in the freezer.
Just made these today and the whole family can't keep their hands off of them. I substituted what I had (sunflower seeds, wheat germ, etc.) and they were AWESOME.
Thanks for sharing!

Ugh! Grandma asks you why you're still single
What you want to say: "Gram, if you knew what kind of jerks went to my school, you'd understand why I was still single."
What you should say: "Just haven't found the right guy, Grandma, but you'll be the first to know when I do!"
Why: Because she only wants the best for you, in that annoying, occasionally endearing way of hers.
What?! Mom says you should really consider that second helping of spaghetti
What you want to say: "Yeah, and you should really reconsider that awful sweater, but hey, who am I to judge?"
What you should say: "Mom, how can I not have seconds?! It's just so darn delicious."
Why: If Mom thinks you're eating too much, whether you are or not, that's not a conversation you should have at the dinner table. Play nice—for now—and then ask her what she meant by that remark later, when you two are alone. Tell her it hurt your feelings.
Excuse me? Your BF tells you he hates your new dress
What you want to say: "Well, I kind of hate your friends. Let's just call it even."
What you should say: "Really? I think the pattern is awesome."
Why: What does he know about style, anyway? Just 'cause your guy doesn't dig your wardrobe—or something else about you—doesn't mean you should ever change to make him happy.
Oh, brother. Your bestie tells you she's so happy you got an A+ on your essay…but she's sure she could have done just as good, if she'd wanted to
What you want to say: "As if! You'd need a miracle to pull that one off."
What you should say: "Yeah, I bet you could have."
Why: Would it have killed her to be genuinely happy for you? No. But snapping back won't do your friendship any favors, so bite back that retort, vent to Mom when you get home and forget about it.

"we almost dated" is such a weird relationship to have with someone
Plus the sequel "we never got closure"
And then the side adaptation "as a result I have a weird crush that never died"
If you had a friend dealing with the same things, you wouldn't berate that person, say, 'You're not working hard enough,' 'You suck,' or 'You're not as good as [whomever].' You'd offer your friend encouragement, you'd try to point out all the things your friend did right, and how much progress your friend had made.
You should do no less for yourself. Be very careful how you talk to yourself. Because you are listening.

Source: nijitsundere
the first time someone tells you these words I hope you stick out your hand and catch the letters in the air I hope you crunch them in your fist I hope you shove them back into the mouth they flew out of I hope and pray you are not eight years old and hanging off of a shopping cart and groaning about how bored you are, I hope you were not young like I was the first time I read a magazine on a shelf underneath the candy I hope you weren't young because I still thought everything I read had to be true - but better yet, I hope these words never find you.
They tell you to be strong but it's the little things like this that sit on our hips and tangle in our hair and feel like bees when the night gets dark. It's the little things we could never ever shake off because the minute we tried, we discovered there were more waiting for us.
smile more often. I hope the first time someone calls you fat, you shimmy your shoulders and wink and feel like a goddess and take it as a compliment. I hope you are not the new kid in a fifth-grade class, glasses on your nose and your hair in tangles. I hope nobody ever touched your tummy and asked if you were embarrassed by the way it jiggles. I hope if you ever hear those words, you reach out your beautiful fingers and touch the temple of the person talking and ask, "Are you embarrassed your brain works like that?"
See, I have not gained weight since the eight grade and I'm twenty. I have had about four hundred people tell me I'm skinny but it's only the two or three voices about the thickness of my thighs and the fat on my hips - these are the only voices that stick. Don't give them that satisfaction. Take a bath. Stare at your reflection. Count the flecks beside your iris. Promise yourself you're not going to ruin your life - you won't let them win. Don't let that moment cause ripples. Yank out the cruelty from your system.
stop faking it. Stop engineering your body to be a call-and-response of bruises and shots. I hope you are not fifteen the first time a boy kisses you hard. I hope you do not go home with a bloody mouth and spend the rest of your life thinking love is stained with iron. I hope you are not swallowing your sanity to be with somebody. I hope the first time you let someone touch you, they are someone worthy of your trust - I hope that nobody tries to force you into a label like "frigid" or "slut."
In the animal world, most males have bright plumage so they can attract mates. In humans, we expect ladies to look a certain way. When you break out of the norm, suddenly you're rattling chains. How dare you not want sex and still look this way. Maybe people are scared of admitting your body has power - it can turn heads in a baggy sweatshirt. Your body doesn't need a magazine's confirmation. Your body's been through hell and still keeps on living. Put on your heels and stalk down the sidewalk. Take off your makeup. Do what you need to feel awesome.
ignore everything they tell you. Don't let them in.
- Maybe one day I'll make a list of every single terrible magazine I've read. I think I'm gonna start an advice column called "If it makes them money, it's probably not good." /// r.i.d (via rauchwolken)

HAPPENING NOW [VERY IMPORTANT]: Venezuela's soldiers are killing their people. The Government is sending their armed gangs to kill them and they have censored all the media in their country, even blocking photos posted on social media sites. They shut down all the cable channels that broadcast news, so they can't know what's going on. The people have no source of protection at all. Students are protesting to save their country and their lives at this very moment. All they have are their social networks to get the word out so, PLEASE RE-BLOG THIS AND SPREAD THE WORD. VENEZUELA IS ON THE BRINK OF A CIVIL WAR AND CLOSE TO BECOMING A FULL COMMUNIST DICTATORSHIP. THEIR PEOPLE NEED YOUR HELP. —— Please, this is very important to me, one of my closest friends went to visit family in Venezuela over winter break and they won't let him come back to Florida. We're graduating in a few months and it hurts me to know that his baseball career and all of his hard work and dedication to his grades here in the U.S. was all for nothing. Please.

From the Australian Broadcasting Corporation. Sophie Collombet death: Four international students killed in Brisbane since November. Excerpt:
French exchange student Sophie Collombet is the fourth international student to be killed in Brisbane since November. Ms Collombet's body was found in a rotunda at Kurilpa Park, near the William Jolly Bridge in central Brisbane, on March 28. Police said she suffered extensive head injuries in what they called a "brutal attack". Detective Inspector Rod Kemp said the spate of recent killings was a cause for concern.
"For someone to be brutally attacked in this manner, it's just disgraceful," he said. "We are a safe society, I believe. But now this is the [fourth] international student [to be killed], and of course it's a concern to us." The incident follows the fatal stabbing of a Singaporean student in March and the deaths of two South Korean students late last year. There is no suggestion Ms Collombet's death is linked to any of the other incidents.
The other recent killings include:
Eunji Ban (South Korea, 22). Murdered 24 November 2013. 19yo man fronts court over Korean woman's murder in Brisbane's CBD. Excerpt:
A 19-year-old man has appeared in Brisbane's Magistrates Court charged with the weekend murder of a young Korean woman in the CBD. The body of Eunji Ban, who police now say was aged 22, was discovered in parklands in Brisbane's CBD on Sunday morning.
Ms Ban had been in Australia on a youth exchange for just six weeks before her death. Detectives believe she was walking to work as a hotel cleaner in the Brisbane CBD when she was attacked early on Sunday morning. Overnight they arrested Alex Reuben McEwan at his home in the inner-city suburb of Spring Hill. Detectives say CCTV footage and information from the public led to the arrest.
Min Tae Kim (South Korea, 28). Murdered 16 December 2013. Korean man appears in Brisbane court charged with murdering Min Tae Kim. Excerpt:
A man charged with killing a fellow South Korean national has been remanded in custody after appearing in a Brisbane court this morning. The body of Min Tae Kim, 28, was exhumed yesterday from a shallow grave on a vacant block at Algester in Brisbane's south. He had been missing since Monday. Overnight, fellow South Korean national Sanghyun Hwang, 28, was charged with Mr Kim's murder.
Meenatchi Narayanan (Singapore, 27). Murdered 25 March 2013. Details:
Singaporean student Meenatchi Narayan, 27, was found stabbed to death in a room at the Travelodge hotel at Upper Mount Gravatt on March 25. A 31-year-old man has been charged with her murder. Narayan was reportedly studying a masters of business at the Queensland University of Technology. According to media reports, Ms Narayan and the 31-year-old man were to enter an arranged marriage.
Four international student deaths in just four months will have a devastating impact on the Brisbane university sector. Around 75,000 international students call Brisbane home and the city prides itself on it's safe image.
To the lost.

Gemnasium's security coach on steroids!
Hi Matt Parker,
As announced last week, we are pleased to release today the new features focusing on security.
Remember: since Gemnasium-2.0 we monitor popular packages, looking for security or critical updates. Once something is detected, all impacted versions are tagged accordingly which ends up to a red color on the projects depending on it.
It's time to put some steroids on this! Let's review the new features:
To bring you more information on these critical and security updates, Gemnasium now displays advisories right on the package's page.
Advisories provide useful informations about security issues or critical updates: description, affected versions, fixed versions, available solutions etc…
Advisories are displayed on each affected versions of a package and also on the ones that fix it.
But that's not enough… Keep calm and let the Security Coach tell you what's wrong with your projects!
Right from your project page you now can check the security and critical advisories affecting your dependencies.
Open alerts just hang here until your project become safe! They are closed automatically when the dependency is updated to a non-affected version.
If your app has been fixed with a patch, a workaround or is simply not affected by the advisory, you can tell Gemnasium it's okay and just close the alert.
Gemnasium's Security Coach will warn you immediately when an advisory is created and will remind you every day until the alert is closed (by an update or using the close button). But if you feel bothered by the reminder and still haven't fixed the issue, you can acknowledge the alert to stop the notifications. This can be done on the project page or directly from your alert email.
To avoid spamming you when you have a lot of affected projects, notifications are grouped by advisory. Here is a sample alert email:
The security reminder takes your notifications settings into account. So you only receive security emails for projects and packages that have notifications enabled and you won't be notified at all if you have totally disabled notifications in your settings.
Please note that all old alerts have been automatically acknowledged to avoid spamming you. Feel free to reopen them if you want to be reminded.
The notifications and reminder features are included in all plans starting from Bonzaï (see pricing), and also available as trial during the 1st month of registration for Free plans. As an exceptional offer, the security reminder is also available to all existing Free users until March, 31st!
As an exceptional offer, the security reminder is also available to all existing Free users until March, 31st!
Gemnasium is still growing its changelogs base and advocates for a common format. Your opinion is welcome and you can contribute on the Vandamme open source project to help us defining a convention.
As always, we hope you'll appreciate these new features and your feedback is welcome!

Palin was a great pick, McCain was the problem. The worst campaign I can ever recall and I have been around for 75 years. McCain was a huge disappointment. A total "nothing" of a candidate. If Palin had not been on the ticket there would have been no reason at all to even show up to vote.

Police seek teen in high-speed chaseMarch 18,2013UNDERHILL Police are on the lookout for a 19-year-old Vermont man they say led them on a high-speed chase before abandoning his car and running into some woods.
State police said Sunday theyre seeking the publics help in locating Patrick Milliken, of Jericho.
Officials said the chase began around 5 p.m. Saturday when Detective Sgt. Todd Baxter attempted to stop Milliken for speeding in the village of Smugglers Notch.
After initially stopping, Milliken allegedly drove his car at a high speed at Baxters police cruiser before speeding off on Route 108, where he was observed passing cars and driving recklessly.
Officials say Milliken was later spotted in Underhill, where he eventually stopped before running off. Police say a female passenger told them she wanted Milliken to stop, but he wouldnt.MORE IN This Just InWHITE RIVER JUNCTION A Chester woman pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct for allegedly...

Of all disciplines charged with the goal of sustainability, design offers the most compelling methodology. As an inherently multi-disciplinary practice, design can modify isolated parts of a system to influence the behavior of the whole, and as a result provide the critical intervention mechanism needed to shift any complex system towards sustainability.
Traditionally, business has viewed design as a product-driven process, investing in it only when it yields positive ROI. But it is when design has been applied as a framework to create systems-based solutions that it has led to substantive returns for business.
One such framework, known as lean design, shifted businesses toward less waste and higher productivity. As an early precursor of "green design," lean emphasized energy and resource efficiencies. Lean design actually proved to be such a forceful new paradigm that the federal government created not-for-profit programs like Manufacturing Extensions Programs (MEP) to assist businesses looking to capitalize upon its principles. Small businesses eager to gain competitive advantage in today's green economy can benefit from these programs by implementing lean and green design solutions across their operations.
There are currently 59 MEP centers around the country, all dedicated to revitalizing local businesses through whole-systems design. Susie Zimmerman, a consultant for the program, explained that MEPs work on a not-for-profit basis and collaborate with academic institutions, economic development authorities, private consultants, state and federal agencies to design customized solutions for businesses.
MEPs have a network of more than 1,000 field specialists that include architects, engineers, design consultants and management and marketing specialists. They delve into the smallest details of a business to identify areas for improvement and innovation, then design a plan and facilitate the transition.
ITAC, the Industrial Technology Assistance Corporation, is a New York City MEP that has operated as a one-stop resource for local businesses for over 20 years. ITAC encourages businesses to incorporate lean and green design by demonstrating the positive ROI of implementing them.
Stefanie Feldman, ITAC's Director of Sustainability, said the group typically starts with addressing solid waste in a business by redesigning material flows. "Most companies are not open to an entirely new approach. They expect us to give them a quick and dirty fix," she explained. "Waste is a small step but it is a tactical one. It proves to the company the value of green because it reduces costs and smoothens the workflow." Beyond the quick fixes, ITAC offers extensive assistance to small businesses.
Nulux, a custom light fixtures manufacturer in New York City, turned to ITAC when they were zoned out of their 15-year old facility in Brooklyn. ITAC helped secure state funding to relocate Nulux, designed a lean production process for the new facility, introduced efficient fabrication technologies and finally helped develop a comprehensive marketing strategy.
"Our owner wanted to make sustainability a company-wide initiative. ITAC helped us look at the entire process not just one product to move us in that direction," said Meredith Goodwin Bajaj, an industrial designer at Nulux. The lean design yielded instant productivity for Nulux and per ITAC: "Lead times were reduced from 78 days to 1 day, work-in-progress inventory was reduced by 98 percent, productivity was increased by 200 percent and the amount of space the firm needed was reduced by 35 percent -- from 200 square feet to just 130."
Lean, Green Design: a Key Resource for Small Business
Of all disciplines charged with the goal of sustainability, design offers the most compelling methodology. As an inherently multi-disciplinary practice, design can modify isolated parts of a system to influence the behavior of the whole, and as a result provide the critical intervention mechanism needed to shift any complex system towards sustainability.
