Anytime you search for online installment loans direct lenders you need to know what it takes to get approved by the lender. The amount required for paying off any type of debt is quite big. This is due to the processing time taken by the traditional lenders being more than expected. There's also the hassle of having to hand over documents and pay stubs that can be difficult to find. Overcoming such a situation usually calls for payday advances. This is exactly when the same day installment loans online proves to be handy. Not everyone will be eligible for good credit financing or even Government grants or funding. When you apply for installment loans online you will take a single lump sum in the form of an advance, which is the same as a payday loan. The difference is that you can repay it over many payments instead of doing so all at once. With most types of payday or cash advances, there will be a few payments before the loan is back on track an no longer past due with the bank. Short term financing, even if it is online, is payable as per a fixed rating schedule. Let us say, a certain amount that is due on a monthly basis with direct installment loans online. These direct loans are like bank loans and other types of long used financing methods. Each fixed amount that you repay includes accrued fees as well as interest. After some payments, the original debt or principal rating decreases bit by bit. Much like a payday loan, most direct lender installment loans are arise from unexpected expenses or paying off the monthly bills.
Same Day Installment Loans Online require good credit!
Unlike traditional online lenders, there are dozens of companies that administer these long term notes. They provide you the freedom to repay the full amount at any time, without charging extra fees or penalties. Qualified applicants can even choose to repay over time without any kind of prepayment penalty. Most online lenders make it quick and hassle-free for you to apply for the same day installment loan online. You only have to spend a few minutes in filling an application form on the lender's official site. If all financial details come back correct, the processing takes place to credit your bank account with the money. Before processing, the site owner or the accredited lender contacts the applicant. Most companies will want to verify the details of your direct installment loans. The direct lender may also want to discuss in detail the loan application. Before you fill the form and apply for different online installment loans, there are some eligibility criteria for you to fill out. This will increase the chances to qualify for bank financing on the same day of application.
Eligibility Criteria
For quick and easy approval, you have to meet a few requirements that are common, regardless of the online lender you choose. These requirements act as evaluation criteria for the lender to check your application. It also helps to find out whether you are eligible for the amount requested on each of the installment loans online, as per the prefixed criteria. Both the loan terms and approval come from factors such as state of residence, past loan history, direct pay deposit, and income. For eligibility, you need to:
• Be above 18 and be able to prove your identity
• Have a legal identification card
• Have an open and active checking bank account that allows for direct deposit to fund your installment loan
• Have a fixed source of money or be employed-most online installment loans will need an income of least $1500 a month
• A valid phone number and email address to contact if your personal loan falls past due
• Give correct and complete details at the time of filling the online application. Such as bank account number, contact information, and income amount for proper identification.
You may wonder why bank account details are part of the process. This is for crediting the amount from the direct lender. When your online loan application gets approval, the money is sent to your bank account within24 hours of the approval. This happens via electronic transfer and only on business days. The time of transfer varies from lenders that fund installment loans online to another. The same-day transfer of money is possible before 5:00 PM (EST) on any business day. The approval message goes to your through an e-mail, which is why a valid e-mail address part of the application process
Eligibility Criteria for Consumers with Bad Credit
The above criteria are also applicable for those who have bad credit scores. Most online installment loans direct lenders will require good to great credit. This is the same with payday advance firms and car title lenders. That doesn't mean you can't find some direct loans online with decent credit. There are often 10 or more direct installment loan lenders listed on this site. These companies all lend upwards of $10,000. All lenders will have terms of 2-4 years for a loan payback. The online lender must be willing to offer bad credit cash advance financing. Like what you see on the home page of its official site. Most online lenders follow this policy for approval limits: Up to $1,500 for first time borrowers and then up to $5,000. These limits vary with each direct lender as they come from local federal rules.

Logline: Ike Jerome, a 24-year-old architecture student inspired by the few films he has seen, rides the bus into Hollywood. Jerome is almost autistic (later, his friend dubs him a "cineautistic") in his interactions with the world, and is deeply affected by his childhood with his religiously oppressive father. With a tattoo of Montgomery Clift and Elizabeth Taylor as they appear in A Place in the Sun (a film that plays an important role in the plot) on his shaved head, he makes an impression on the people around him. Soon breaking into film as a designer and eventually a film editor, Vikar (as he is nicknamed) begins a dreamlike journey into the world of films that eventually ends in tragedy and almost horrific discovery.
Directed by James Franco, Starring James Franco, Seth Rogan, Megan Fox, Will Ferrell, Danny McBride, Jacki Weaver

Set me back $2.49 ... this electric car maintenance thing is killing my budget!
Just wait till the ~$600 a year annual service. That will make up for the cheap "semi-annual" service.
..but that $600 got me a new drive train, and I've got a new computer since as well. Warranty.
Pretty cheap overall, I'd say.

Visual imagery transcends languages and evokes emotional responses more so than a text-heavy status update. From a brand perspective, visual storytelling is the natural evolution of existing consumer behaviors and helps to humanize brands. Brands can interact with consumers to drive the creation of branded content, which drives additional attention in a user's social activity stream, thus driving additional consideration for the brand.
The power of services like Instagram and Pinterest is in the simplicity and ease of publishing and pinning, as well as the deep integration of each into users' social graphs. Pinterest has reaffirmed consumers' interests in visually searching for information. Meanwhile, Instagram embodies the convergence of mobile and social.
Instagram now boasts more than 50 million users, and it is adding new ones at the rate of roughly 5 million per week. More than 1 billion photos have been uploaded on Instagram, with 5 million-plus more photos being added every day.
By enabling connections with other social platforms, making sharing easy, and focusing on discoverability of content via hashtags, brands have found innovative ways to incorporate Instagram into their social strategies to further humanize their brands. Brands that understand and capitalize on visual storytelling across channels will ultimately reap the benefits and net higher levels of engagement.
This article highlights five brands that have incorporated visual imagery and social curation via Instagram into their broader digital strategies. Each brand offers a different value proposition to its followers, but there are common themes demonstrated by each example. Let's take a look.

At about 2:15 p.m. on Thursday, June 20, a truck fatally struck 22-year-old cyclist Chelsea Kashergen in Fullerton. Kashergen was riding eastbound on Nutwood Avenue when a FedEx truck traveling northbound on Ladera Vista Drive turned left onto Nutwood and hit her. She died at the scene. NBC reported that Kashergen appeared to have the right of way. The bicycle accident is under investigation.
"If a motorist's negligence fatally harms others, the families of the victims may file wrongful death claims in order to hold the motorist liable for their losses," explained California bicycle accident lawyer James Ballidis.
Cyclists accounted for 52 of the 823 traffic accidents that resulted in injury or death in Fullerton in 2010, according to the California Office of Traffic Safety. Statewide, bicyclist fatalities increased 13.2 percent, from 99 in 2010 to 114 in 2011. In 2011, 4,432 bicyclists were killed and 69,000 were injured in the United States, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
All of us at Allen, Flatt, Ballidis, and Leslie would like to offer our condolences to the family of Chelsea Kashergen, the cyclist whom the truck fatally struck.
Additional information on the wrongful death claims process is available to the public free of charge through our office.
If you would like to request a free book or article, or to speak with a California bicycle accident lawyer, feel free to call 866-981-5596.

Music Library: Richard Thompson 1982-1998 (The Middle Period)
Continuing with Richard Thompson following his break-up with Linda. This is Thompson's middle period, when he was experimenting with his sound and figuring out the rest of his career.
1982: Live at Hunt's (September 22, 1982), Alone With His Guitar (September 29 and 30, 1982), and Nocturnal Emissions (1980-82) (all bootlegs). After sending Linda back to England at the end of the SOTL tour (which wrapped up in June or July), Thompson undertook a solo tour a few months later. The first two of these bootlegs showcase a man trying to put together a solo career. His voice strains to hit some of the notes. His acoustic playing lacks the incredible grace and fluidity that his solo shows will eventually become known for. However, these bootlegs are interesting. Thompson is working towards his solo persona, with the affable between-song patter punctuating the crackerjack emotional fireworks of his songs. Nocturnal Emissions, despite the frankly gross title, collects a number of interesting radio broadcasts, some with Linda, and some demos Thompson made for the Sugar Hill bluegrass label (and thank god he did not sign with them because they would have put his output into a literal wooden box).
1983: Hand of Kindness. Bringing in a horn-heavy big-band approach and a pub-rock vitality, Thompson's first proper solo album in over a decade features some killer songs, such as the Cajun-stomp "Tear-Stained Letter" and the fun audience-pleaser "Two Left Feet." And wow, this video is amazing. That's Thompson's secret weapon Pete Zorn as first sax. Plus a cigar-box guitar!
1984: Small Town Romance. Featuring live performances from the solo acoustic tour at the end of 1982, Small Town Romance has all of the uncertainty I mentioned above. It was out-of-print for many years. Not the worst thing in the world, but certainly not the best, either.
1985: Across A Crowded Room, Across A Crowded Room Live (bootleg), Faithless (live), and "When The Spell Is Broken (Live At Park West Club, Chicago, March 28, 1985)" (the "You Don't Say" B-side). Crowded Room is Thompson's last album with Joe Boyd. The songs are excellent and the production more expansive than on the last two. The boot and the live album are both from the support tour, and both are blisteringly great. The bootleg is the audio from a live video that can be easily found on YouTube, while Faithless was an official release by Richard's label. The B-side is a vinyl rip from either the same show as Faithless or nearby, as both were recorded in Chicago. Let me say a special word for "She Twists The Knife Again," which is almost post-punk in passion and approach.
1986: Daring Adventures and Live At the Bayou, November 2, 1986 (bootleg). Mitchell Froom took over as producer for Daring Adventures, and the result is, sadly, just flabbier. The songs have less crackle (the semi-racist "A Bone Through Her Nose" needs to be put down forever), although there are still some excellent works. The bootleg cooks pretty well, but the sound quality is a bit muffled.
1988: Amnesia, "Turning Of The Tide (Live)" (from Ben and Jerry's Newport Folk Festival '88), More Guitar (live), The Reckless Kind 7". With Amnesia, Thompson and producer Mitchell Froom fell into sync. The songs are excellent and Froom's production serves them far better than on Daring Adventures. Amnesia is one of my two favorites of Thompson's middle era. The version of "Turning Of The Tide" from Ben and Jerry's folk thingy is acoustic and pretty great, but, y'know, it's a fantastic song. More Guitar is another fan-club/private-label Thompson release consisting of tracks taken from a couple of shows in Washington DC in 1988. Thompson's buddy Henry Kaiser picked the tracks out and they focus on his guitar work, which was leaping into the "untouchable virtuoso" range around this time. The two Reckless Kind 7" B-sides are from the same shows as More Guitar. This version of "Can't Win" is from those DC shows, too. It originally surfaced on the Watching The Dark compilation and contains, as the video suggests, one of the most astounding guitar solos ever recorded.
1989: Loose ends, no album. "Here Without You" and "Hickory Wind" from Time Between: A Tribute To The Byrds. This is Thompson performing a Gene Clark song and a Gram Parsons song, which could be nothing but awesome.
1990: Loose ends, no album. "Two Left Feet" and "The Choice Wife" from Ben and Jerry's Newport Festival Vol. 2, "The May Day Psalter" (with Danny Thompson) from Circle Dance, and "Time To Ring Some Changes," "Mrs. Rita" (with June Tabor), and "Oh, I Swear" from the Hard Cash soundtrack. All I have from this year are loose ends.
1991: Rumor and Sigh. My first Richard Thompson album and favorite from this era. Like Henry The Human Fly, Rumor and Sigh jumps genres with aplomb, excelling at all. There's a pub-rocker ("Read About Love"), Stax soul ("Why Must I Plead"), a polka ("Don't Sit On My Jimmy Shands"), and, well, you get the picture. This is also the album that introduced the sublime "1952 Vincent Black Lightning," which Thompson has probably played at least 200 times in each of the 22 years since he wrote it, and I daresay that it is a song that Thompson would be happy to never have to play again. He rushes the damn thing so fast now that it is starting to lose all meaning, although the audience still eats it up. Still, it's his biggest "hit," and he's a pro. Here's a version from before he started to hate the song.
Loose ends from 1991: "She Moves Through The Fair" from Ben and Jerry's Newport Folk Festival, "Shoot Out The Lights" from The Best Of Mountain Stage Live, "Dimming Of The Day" (with Mary Black and Dolores Keane) from Bringing It All Back Home BBC Soundtrack, three radio tracks, five live tracks on the I Misunderstood promo disc, "Heartbreak Hotel" (with John Cale, Shawn Colvin, David Sanborn, and Jo-El Sonnier) from Night Music With David Sanborn, two live tracks from the Read About Love single. I'm a bit obsessive, ok?
1992: Even the album is a loose end. Sweet Talker: Original Music From the Movie, Live In Flushing October 4, 1992 (bootleg), "The Job Of Journey Work" from Ferrington Guitars, "I Feel So Good" from In Their Own Words. Sweet Talker is nothing great, although it has the music for the song "Persuasion," which will eventually become a fan favorite. The bootleg has decent sound quality and is a cooking acoustic show similar to the first one I saw in this same year. The two loose ends are both fine.
1993: Watching The Dark (compilation), King Of Bohemia (bootleg), Live At Crawley (bootleg), "Two Left Feet" from Live In Basingstroke, "Skull and Crossbones" from Medium Rare (XRT Radio) and Persuasion 7" (with Tim Finn). Watching The Dark was such a phenomenal compilation album for a cult artist like Thompson, combining album tracks with astonishing live versions and utter rarities impossible to find in the pre-Internet days. King Of Bohemia collects two live-in-the-studio radio shows, and Live At Crawley showcases Thompson's collaboration with the excellent Danny Thompson from Pentangle. I bought this as a bootleg in 1993, but Thompson later released it as an official live album on his private label. Of the loose tracks, the "Persuasion" single has the song with Finn's lyrics in the form that Thompson's fans know today.
1994: Mirror Blue, Doom and Gloom (fan compilation), Two Letter Words (live), "I Can't Wake Up To Save My Life" from ONXRT, two live tracks from the BBC. I was so excited when Mirror Blue came out and so disappointed with the actual album. It has some great songs ("Mingus Eyes" is my favorite) and some that never should have seen the light of day ("Fast Food," anyone?). Doom and Gloom was a fanclub release that collected rarities and live tracks between 1968 and 1994, and Two Letter Words was a Thompson private-label release that captures his live band in action in 1994. The live performances were far better than the versions on Mirror Blue.
1995: "Beeswing" from Live At The World Cafe, Vol. 1. One loose end for this year and that's all. I'm not as crazy about this song as some of Thompson's fans. To me, it is pretty, but it mythologizes a hippie relationship in a "weren't we all crazy?" way that I utterly fail to connect with. I mean, yes, she ends up a junkie, but the song is chock-full of unfortunate nostalgia. Makes a lot of Thompson's Boomer fans happy, though, so there's that.
1996: You? Me? Us?, A Rare Thing (bootleg), "Who Were You Thinking Of/96 Tears" (with David Byrne), four more live tracks. You? Me? Us? was Thompson's last album with Mitchell Froom producing, and I'm of mixed mind about it. See, I don't like this album much at all, but it's not really Froom's fault. Many of the songs are only half-cooked, which is on Richard. I hear from Thompson's fans don't like the Froom period, which I think is because they don't like the experimentation. They don't want Thompson to do anything other than play clean because I think that they are fundamentally conservative about the man and their music. They want him to be a certain person, and he has been happy to comply for pretty much the whole of his later period. But I think the experimentation of his middle era was good for Thompson, and I wish he would do it again. When he popped up on the Grizzly Man soundtrack working with Jim O'Rourke, I was hoping that they would collaborate on something. O'Rourke has an excellent ear for folk music and some excellent intuition for interesting production. But no. Anyway, You? Me? Us? is split into an acoustic side and an electric side, which is an interesting experiment, even if it doesn't fully work here. The best songs are the rockers "Put It There, Pal" and "Bank Vault In Heaven," both of which are screaming out for epic guitar solos. The folkier songs ("Burns Supper" in particular) are not quite finished, but most are built around solid foundations. A Rare Thing is an acoustic recording from the Cat's Cradle in Chapel Hill, and I was there.
1997: Industry (with Danny Thompson), "Beat The Retreat" from Folk Live From Mountain Stage, and "From Galway To Graceland" from Live At The Iron Horse. Industry was an interesting collaboration with Danny Thompson which veered between Richard's Woody Guthrie-esque working class anthems and Danny's jazz stylings with his band Whatever.
1998: The Bones Of All Men (with Philip Pickett) and Celtschmerz (live). The Bones Of All Men is an early music collaboration and I hate it like I hate all early music. Celtschmerz is another live private-label release taken from a tour where Thompson played a lot of fan favorites with his son Teddy for accompaniment.

Course Review
by Nancy G. Howard, Editor/Publisher Arizona Golfer
with Alice & Danny Scott
One of the most iconic golf courses to inhabit the desert landscape of Phoenix, Arizona is ASU Karsten, celebrating its 25th Birthday in September, 2015. Named after PING founder, Karsten Solheim (the largest contributor of initial funding), it is home to the ASU golf teams. Built in part to attract collegiate recruits, it worked well to launch pros like Phil Mickelson, Billy Mayfair, Grace Park and the late Heather Farr who is beautifully commemorated by a detailed bronze statue.
Designed by Pete Dye, this 7002-yard gem is a short par 70 on the scorecard but long in character. Expertly managed by OB Sports and Director of Golf Daryl Crawford, quality is emphasized throughout the well-maintained grounds and facilities. The Scottish influence carries to the links layout in the shadows of the ASU Stadium with mountain range vistas on many holes and the sounds of the ASU Marching Band in the background during this time of year. The undulating fairways and massive mounds are like ski moguls. Pete's infamous pot bunkers and waste areas with his signature use of railroad ties producing the bulkhead effect challenge golfers of all levels.
Holes #6, par 3, 209 yards and #7, par 3, 155 yards from tips –These are back to back par 3s that can give you a good chance to birdie and improve your scorecard or take a bite out of it. On #6, center left is your aim to avoid trouble on the right. Trust the yardage, as it is true. Hole #7 is a straightaway with a mounded bunker at left front you'll want to avoid but trust your swing and yardage and you'll have a chance at that birdie.
Hole #9, par 4, 446 yards from the tips: – A very long lake splits the fairways between 9 and 18, no doubt a bonanza for diving ball recyclers. On number nine, drive far left and then take the liberal stance of left again on the approach to ensure dryness.
Note: Teammates Michael and David thought Holes #2, #8 and #9 were their favorite challenges on the course. David particularly was commenting on the rough most of the day. It's some tough grass to get out of, to say the least.
Hole #16, par 3, 248 yards from the tips: – This is just a great par 3, visually and challenging, hitting over water to the right if you go for the green. Most end up in the bunkers on the left to avoid just not enough distance to the green with your tee shot. However, you can be rewarded if you go for it to redeem a birdie. Just love this hole overall.
Hole #18, par 4, 471 yards from the tips: Not much to say about this hole except beward...it's one challenging finishing hole, for sure. Strategy is the key to score.
The Trophy Room restaurant awards any score with a full bar, dining area, meeting room and a balcony for a gallery view of the course. Players are welcomed into the 21,000 sq. ft. Sun Angel Clubhouse full of everything ASU. Strategically central and perched on the hilltop above the practice facility and PING Learning Center, this boldly contemporary design and the ultra-cool environ may serve as many business folks as golfers. ASU Karsten is a wise and popular choice for many charity and championship tournaments.
Just minutes from the airport, visitors flying in get the birds eye view and may tee off on arrival, before takeoff or both while locals are lucky to be able to frequent this high value course any time to recall or create great golf memories. Once experienced, you know why it is the 'Home of Champions'.
By by Nancy G. Howard & Blake Isakson
You see it from the air as you are arriving in Phoenix at Sky Harbor and from Hwy. 202 connected to the sites of the ASU Campus as you drive by. It's the course where champions are made, it's ASU Karsten Golf Club. The course is a marvelous challenge and after experiencing it, you'll come to understand how they manage to grow and develop such an excellent group of champion golfers at ASU.
ASU Karsten is in the midst of the ASU community with views of the Sun Devil stadium as well as outstanding views of Camelback Mountain. This course wraps around an area with no homes and offers up some unbelievable elevations. A traditional course with plenty of water, elevation changes, undulating, mounded and bunkered fairways, with exceptionally difficult greens to read, this is definitely a thinking man's course. I'm thinking Pete Dye designed it to push you to the max. This is a course with plenty of challenge, yet fun, women friendly, thought provoking, and perfect for developing champions…"Mission accomplished".
The ASU Karsten Golf Course was named one of the Best Campus Courses in the Country by Golfweek Magazine in September, 2011.
The course offers an excellent practice facility with driving range, putting and chipping areas very convenient to the clubhouse, housing a well appointed pro shop with every item to take ASU away with you. This is your place for great savings on items now! There is a wonderful dining area, bar and huge patio overlooking the course's 10th and 18th holes.
The staff, mainly made up of ASU students, couldn't be friendlier or more accommodating, always there to help with exceptional service and friendly smiles. And, you'll love their new uniforms, which takes you back in time with traditional golf attire.
The course is in excellent condition with lush fairways and deep rough, like hunting for Easter eggs at times. Greens held well and putted true. More than enough bunkers, mature trees, water, and yes, the occasional dry wash.
Hole #4, par 4, 420 yards from the tips. May seem straightforward off the tee, but like everything at ASU Karsten you have to be careful of danger lurking just out of sight. The second shot is played to a green guarded by a steep bunker short and left, but the real danger is the water that runs the length of the green along the left side. The green also gradually slopes left towards the water, so even a well-struck ball that finds the left side of the putting surface may not be putting when you get to the green.
Hole #16 , par 3, 248 yards. from the tips. May be the hardest par three in the Valley! With water from tee to green, it is a very daunting shot, even for the best players. Although it's rumored that Phil Mickelson used to impress his teammates by skipping his ball off the water onto the green, this reviewer tried to put that to the test and was not so successful. So, I would suggest taking plenty of club and leaving the trick shots to Phil!
Holes #9 and #18 run parallel to each other with water separating the two fairways. They measure in at 446 and 471 yards, respectively. These are two good holes with water in play from start to finish and Sun Devil Stadium serving as the backdrop. They also both feature greens that are sloped gently from back to front towards the water, and both provide for a very difficult finish to your round of golf.
ASU Karsten is a gem, sitting in the heart of the Valley of the Sun, that you need to visit often as a local. If you are visiting Phoenix, don't miss playing at "The Home of Champions" and experiencing all the history. Definitely not your typical university course, so test your skills to see how you hold up on their champions' training field, this course is definitely a "Must Play".
Note of Interest: Be sure you visit the pro shop and restaurant to view the Wall of Champions. It's an awesome sight to behold.

Looking for Joe
Joe is missing.
He is sick, he hasn't been seen in three months, and nobody knows where he went, or what has happened to him.
"I'm praying nobody did nothing to him," said Marilyn Denise Stewart, Joe's mother. "I'm very worried and I'm staying up all night ... I don't have any money to offer a reward. I don't have anything. I just want to know what happened to my child. I can't rest. I can't sleep. I just need to know what happened to Joe."
Joe DeAngelo Stewart is 21, bipolar, possibly schizophrenic and he hasn't been seen since July 4.
He picked up a disability check for $570 in July, in Morrow, and he cashed it that same day.
A City of Morrow police detective has checked every area hospital, every psychiatric ward, every jail and every morgue, but he can't find Joe.

Sometimes, What's Brewing On The Farm can't contain all of our hot prospect takes. Last Call is a semi-weekly installment sure to quench any remaining prospect thirst you might have.
The best thing about the newly minted What's Brewing On The Farm feature at Padres Public is how it's become a perpetual content generator. The Padres have finally embraced the #FullLuhnow (#FullHoyer?) and are tanking games with the greatest of ease; the All-Star hype has given way to an admission that the team is, in fact, currently engaged in a full rebuild.
All eyes are on the farm system, and – as Billy and I discussed last week – a lot of those eyes are no longer focused on what many perceived to be the crown jewel of the Craig Kimbrel deal: Javier Guerra. This season has been disastrous.

Our trips are designed for those who like or want to be introduced to the outdoors and our goal is to make these places we love accessible to everyone. So, whether you're a first-timer paddler or a seasoned whitewater connoisseur, join us for a rafting adventure like no other!

I always like the New year, it is like we are given a new slate to work with a new design board,or for some a new chance. For me life is a celebration, and we should enjoy the journey. Many people find making parties or entertaining to be a daunting task. I can't tell you how many times I have worked behind my counter at our store and over heard mothers who look at their child's birthday event more as a chore then as a fun pleasure. I am saddened by this perception. I would like to offer tips and ideas on my new blog to make these milestone events easy, fun, and memorable. These events can also be prepared with the smallest budgets all the way to the largest budgets. I myself am a huge coupon girl. I like my bargains,it makes me happy and I enjoy teaching others how to do it. I prepare things that look costly but are pennies, but shhhh that's our secret.
First I would like to tell you about myself. My name is Roberta Araujo, I am a wife,mother of 2,and owner of amazing parties. I started doing parties about 22 years ago. I prepared my own wedding including the decor,invitations,favors,venue,and shopped for my dress in an outlet. I had only one birthday party as a child and have always felt my love for parties probably came from my yearning as a child. My mom always felt it was to much work and so therefore there were no parties for me. I didn't want my children to feel the way I did and would make sure that all their parties were parties of their dreams. Sometimes I admit, I did over do their parties,but it made both of us happy. I certainly got to relive my childhood in the eyes of my children, and happiness for me is looking back at all the memories. Life is about memories,its what made Kodak a huge company. We document our memories in photos,blogs,computers,letters and we enjoy them alone or even with our friends. That is what I do for a living, I make memories, I help people with those moments they will share together forever, may it be a remembrance over a dinner table meal shared with family, a glimpse of a photo of a celebration of the past, or even a shared moment of the present. I am proud that this is what I have devoted my life and work. For all those that know me personally, I get energy and happiness from making others happy. I try every day to do something that impacts someones life. That is the legacy I wish to leave, and share with others.

December 22nd, 2011
By Jennifer Olin, BSN, RN
I am fascinated, as this year draws to a close, by a couple of recent promotions. Nurses are stepping into roles traditionally held by physicians. The most recent, not only takes over an area where even the title proclaims doctor but she is also the first woman to ever hold the post.
On December 7, 2011, Lt. Gen. Patricia D. Horoho, RN, MSN, MS, became the first nurse and first woman ever appointed Surgeon General of the United States' Army. This comes as many changes face our fighting forces including the complete pull out of troops from Iraq on December 18.
"Over the past decade, Army medicine has led the joint health effort in the most austere environments." Horoho said. "As part of the most decisive and capable land force in the world, we stand ready to adapt."
A decade of this war, she said, has left a fighting force with both physical and psychological scars.
"We are dedicated to identifying and caring for those Soldiers who have sustained psychological and physical trauma associated with an Army engaged in a protracted war," she said, adding that the war fighter does not stand alone.
As Army surgeon general, Horoho will oversee the third largest healthcare system in the country, just behind the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Hospital Corporation of America. Before her promotion Horoho commanded the Army Nurse Corps.
The office of the Army surgeon general has an annual budget of 13.5 billion dollars and oversees more than 480 facilities and 29 executive agencies. The department employees 140,000 military and civilian workers and provides for more than 3.6 million people around the world.
"Army medicine," Horoho said, "has a responsibility to all those who serve, to include family members, and our retirees who have already answered the call to our nation. We will fully engage our patients in all aspects of their healthcare experience at each touch point, starting with the initial contact.
"We will make the right care available at the right time by demonstrating compassion to those we serve and value to our stakeholders. The collective healthcare experience is driven by a team of professionals partnering with the patient, focused on health, health promotion and disease prevention to enhance wellness.
One of Army medicine's greatest challenges over the next three to five years, she said, is managing the escalating cost of providing world-class healthcare in a fiscally constrained environment.
Horoho earned her Bachelor of Science in nursing at the University of North Carolina, and completed her Master of Science degree as a clinical trauma nurse specialist at the University of Pittsburgh.
Earlier this month we told you about Marilyn Tavenner, a nurse who is now the head of The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid. She is also the first nurse to lead this federal office.

oh god why am i so ugly why why why, its not fair, i fall in love with so many beautiful women who are in leagues way way above me, im so sick of it. it hurts.... nothing i can tell myself, nothing anyone can say to me, nothing i can do makes the pain go away. im beyond crying, now i just ge tthis horrible sinking feeling in the pit of my stomache whenever i think about my horrible horrible life...why is life just so cruel

It doesn't sound like you're falling in "love" with these beautiful women. It sounds like you're being shallow and thinking their beauty is what you love. Sweetheart, that is called lust and is what Romeo felt for Juliet (seriously, it was just at first sight for them). Instead of falling in love with beautiful women, fall in love with a woman's personality. THEN come back to complain.
humbleness,and confidence found through humility, can be very attractive. I met a guy who told me (my bf) "in the end everything grows old 😉but love never dies"lol. find what makes you beautiful first, and you'll most likely reflect it naturally.

I think using fragment identifiers to "descend into meaning" was a profound mistake, and that we will have to work hard to recover from it. It conflicts with the use of fragments for ordinary and necessary syntactic reference and processing, e.g., supposing one wanted to use XPointer for application/rdf+xml MIME types. If we want to keep backward compatibility, the only way out I can see is to try and define the relationships more carefully: some RDF relationships are relationships to the actual resource or fragment identified by the Uniform Resource Identifier (with Fragment Identifier appended), and some RDF relationships are to the concepts that are described by them. In the case of namespace names, the URI identifies a resource, but the relationship is to the namespace which is described by or identified by the URI. In the case of RDF assertions, it isn't the fact that there is a "#" at the end of the URI reference, it's the fact that the nature of the assertion rdf:RDF> <rdf:Description about="http://mycollege.edu/courses/6.001"> <s:students> <rdf:Bag> <rdf:li resource="http://mycollege.edu/students/Amy"/> <rdf:li resource="http://mycollege.edu/students/Tim"/> <rdf:li resource="http://mycollege.edu/students/John"/> <rdf:li resource="http://mycollege.edu/students/Mary"/> <rdf:li resource="http://mycollege.edu/students/Sue"/> </rdf:Bag> </s:students> </rdf:Description> </rdf:RDF> isn't that the web page "http://mycollege.edu/students/Amy" is a student of the web page "http://mycollege.edu/courses/6.001" but rather than the person described by the former is a student of the college course described by the latter. Sticking (or removing) "#" from the end of the URIs doesn't help. After all, perhaps you have a catalog of courses http://mycollege.edu/courses and need to use a fragment identifier to get to a particular one: http://mycollege.edu/courses#6.001 "s:students" itself carries the responsibility of performing the indirection between description and concept described. This lets us leave namespace names as URI references by noting that the xmlns relationship doesn't link to the resource but to the 'namespace' corresponding to it, etc. Larry -- http://larry.masinter.netReceived on Thursday, 7 June 2001 12:48:25 UTC

Weaving a heavy dose of romance into a familiar fairy tale, and revisiting the same family as in The Healer's Apprentice (2010) and The Fairest Beauty (2013), Dickerson has concocted another lavish medieval idyll.
Abused by her stepsisters and her vicious stepmother (whose motivation is unclear), orphaned Gisela, whom they call "Cinders-ela," has never lost her spirit. She has secretly admired rugged Valten, Lord Hamlin, for years. After he falls for her, she sneaks out to attend a jousting tournament, where he selects her as his lady. Valten duels the dastardly knight Ruexner, who's driven to defeat him even if that requires cheating. Gisela's conniving relatives maliciously conspire to have Ruexner kidnap her with the intent to force her into marrying him, but heroic Valten comes to her rescue, ultimately aided by Friar Daniel (an annoying character seemingly inserted merely to provide ample prayers and homilies). While Valten and Gisela are attractive characters, others lack the spark of life. Though it gets off to a fine start, it gradually loses its way—at least partly through heavy-handed references to other tales in the series—needlessly extending an otherwise pleasant if uninspired romance.
Nevertheless, meticulous period detail and the slightly steamy—though modestly chaste—evolving relationship between Gisela and Valten ultimately sustain this tale. (Historical romance. 11-16)

Ugh, I'm tired. I finished my first full school board meeting last night. Of course most of the board is new this year so we ask lots of questions and hence the meeting started at 7pm and went to just after 10 pm. I wish that was the only reason I'm tired, but my board related duties started at 11:30 am.
The day started at a luncheon I attended that was put on the local Chamber of Commerce who in partnership with the school board and the Martin Foundation (started by no other than Paul Martin one of our ex-prime ministers) were starting a new program focusing on business/entrepreneurship skills for aboriginal students. So I got to meet two SK cabinet ministers (including the Minister of Education), the mayor, two city councilors and of course Paul Martin. Not a bad way to start off as this board's first official public event we had attended.
Lunch was then followed by a tour of the inner city high school where the program will be started and a round table discussion on aboriginal issues around education like high dropout rate, low parent involvement, adapting material and methods to aboriginal culture and a host of others topics. We also had the elders advisory council there and students to provide some honest discussion on what's wrong and what's seems to be working.
What stuck me the most about this round-table was the fact that most of the people who spoke obviously really cared about these issues. We often think our elected officials are only concerned about getting elected again, but I saw a group of people that honestly are trying to do their best to improve the lives of others.
Then later that night at the board meeting I met most of the senior administration staff for the school division. So of course, but this time I've given up trying to recall every one's name and face and accept I can't meet 30 new people in one day and keep them straight. Then we reviewed the current strategic plan, the budget, the enrollment numbers and of course did some real work on some personnel issues.
So I'm tired, but I've learned some very important things:
- This job will not be easy. It will require a lot from me and likely more time than I originally would have guessed for the first six months or so until I'm a bit more up to speed. I also have a whole new respect for elected officials.
- I'm actually enjoying myself more than I would have guessed. I've always liked learning new things so getting tossed into a completely different field has been interesting. Yes it's work but I'm happy doing it.
- I don't even care that much about how much I'm being paid. Frankly I don't need the money, so this is giving me a little taste of the potential of being financially independent. I'm doing this because I want to, not for the income.
So that's my first updated on the job, who knew this would be a good testing ground for the concept of work without care for the pay. So have you ever had a job that you did just because because you loved it and not the pay? If so, what was it?

Exclusive Mug Shot
our sources has obtained the mug shot taken by Dwyane Wade"s ex-wife … moments after she was arrested this weekend for allegedly attempting to abduct the former couple"s two children.
A rep for the Cook County Sheriff"s Office released a statement saying, "Siohvaughn Funches-Wade was charged with two counts of attempted child abduction, two counts of unlawful visitation interference and one count of resisting arrest."
Funches-Wade"s bond was set at $10,000 … which she posted. She"s set to appear in court again in August.
Wade — who"s currently in the middle of the NBA Finals — has been at war with his ex ever since they divorced back in 2010. Wade was awarded primary custody of their two boys … and Siohvaughn has visitation rights … but she"s clearly not happy with the current arrangement.
The financial details of their divorce are not yet finalized — and in recent court docs, Wade said his ex has been using the children as "the proverbial pawns in this contentious dissolution of marriage action."
Wade wants the judge to suspend Siohvaughn"s visitation rights because of the incident that led to her arrest.
Wade and the Miami Heat are set to square off against the Oklahoma City Thunder in just a few hours.

A commentary on the case of Abdelbaset al-Megrahi, convicted of the murder of 270 people in the Pan Am 103 disaster.
Sunday, 31 October 2010
Al-Megrahi 'pressured to abandon appeal'
The man convicted of the Lockerbie bombing was forced to abandon his appeal to secure compassionate release on the grounds of his terminal cancer, a justice department whistleblower claims.
Three senior sources close to Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al-Megrahi, who has now exceeded the three months he was expected to live by more than ten months, have confirmed the whistleblower's version of events.
Megrahi suddenly dropped his appeal against conviction shortly after the Scottish Government announced he was to be released to return to Libya on compassionate grounds.
It was claimed at the time that the government had made the dropping of the appeal a condition of his release, in order to spare any damage to the reputation the Scottish justice system. The government has always denied the allegations.
The whistleblower's information appeared in an e-mail received last year by the Nationalist MSP Christine Grahame, who met Megrahi after viewing a documentary that convinced her of his innocence. She continues to lobby for justice for him. (...)
The e-mail reads: "The minister seemed set to do the decent thing, allow a dying man to go home and the appeal to continue. However the department has strongly intimated to the Libyans that if Megrahi is to be granted compassionate release he must first drop his appeal. This was the (sic) rammed home to the Libyans at their meeting with the minister yesterday.
"Megrahi is desperate and will do anything to get home, including dropping his appeal, as his prisoner transfer request demonstrates. The department knows it, as does the minister."
Megrahi has always protested his innocence, and the independent Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission had referred his case back to appeal.
The SCCRC found there were six grounds for believing that Megrahi's conviction might have been a miscarriage of justice. (...)
It seemed inexplicable that he would abandon his appeal, but sources close to Megrahi have now revealed the chain of events and have confirmed that he was given no choice.
One Libyan source confirmed the meeting mentioned in the e-mail took place.
He said: "Three senior Libyans, including the Minister for Europe Abdel Ati al-Obeidi, met with Mr MacAskill and it was made clear that things would be resolved speedily if he dropped his appeal.
"They left Edinburgh and went direct to Greenock to visit Baset and they told him he had no choice. In fact they gave him no choice. They told him the appeal would be dropped, but that he would soon be home.
"He was not happy about the appeal. Even after he dies, he does not want his offspring to be labelled the children of the Lockerbie bomber."
Two other sources who have maintained close contact with Megrahi since his return to Libya and have been told the story directly by him confirmed the chain of events.
One said: "A few months earlier he'd have fought tooth and nail not to abandon his appeal. But he really did feel so ill he was sure he must die soon and the desire to get home and die with his family round him overtook everything else."
Grahame said: "I suspected inappropriate pressure had been placed on Megrahi and these latest revelations appear to confirm that. This makes the case for a full and thorough public inquiry even more pressing."
A Scottish Government Spokesperson said: "We have absolutely no knowledge of any such e-mail. The Scottish Government had no conceivable interest in the appeal being dropped."
[The Sunday Herald runs a story headlined Government admits Megrahi always had 50/50 chance of living past three months. It makes the earth-shattering disclosure that "a key Government official has now revealed Megrahi stood a 50% chance of living longer than three months. George Burgess, the Government's former deputy director of criminal law and licensing, who advised MacAskill, said the three-month figure was a 'median survival time', rather than the upper limit of Megrahi's life expectancy. Median survival time is defined as the time at which half the patients with a disease are expected to be alive and half expected to be dead."

sorry only in "Babylon" computer english language:
Current: The Mirror writes today:
Ink plot bomb was built to explode at 30'000ft,...revealed that the bomb discovered at East Midlands Airport on a US-bound cargo plane could have been set off in an atrocity similar to Lockerbie...
EXPRESS CO.UK: Home Secretary Theresa May confirmed the bomb could have brought down an aircraft ... Had the plane exploded and crashed on Nottingham, Leicester or Derby, cities within a 10-mile radius of the airport, hundreds of lives would have been lost...
Rough negligence of the 'FAA' ?
It would have been highest obligation that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) at latest after Al Megrahi dropped his appeal, insight into the 'SCCRC' 800-page report together with 13 volumes of appendices and the 'National Security' document (Pll) would have required !
The Commission, in the published summary of its findings, indicated there were six grounds on which it had concluded a miscarriage of justice might have occurred.
It is high time legally to know whether it in the "Lockerbie-Judgement" a miscarriage of Justice concerns, so that a new investigation can open the investigation authorities against unknown.
By the wrong Scottish judgement against Al Megrahi and Libya remained the true airplane bombers in freedom and endanger further the Air Traffic !
Scottish Parliament please push for independent inquiry to get at the truth of the bombing of PanAm flight 103.
Justice for Al Megrahi and Libya.

"Megrahi is desperate and will do anything to get home, including dropping his appeal, as his prisoner transfer request demonstrates. The department knows it, as does the minister."ReplyDelete
This is supposed to be part of the email from the whistleblower, the "very senior" person who had access to the top-level discussions about the case. But there's a fundamental mistake in it, as I understand the situation.
Megrahi did not apply for prisoner transfer. The way the PTA was set up, he was barred from doing that. Only the Libyan government could make such an application. And indeed, Megrahi didn't even have a say in the matter. Libya applied in May 2009, the minute the PTA was ratified, even though there was an outstanding appeal, and even though compassionate release was also a live issue at that point.
So I have a small doubt about just how high up this insider actually is.
My take on all this is that the Libyan government wanted the appeal dropped just as much as the Scottish government. Because it wants to put Lockerbie and all its ramifications behind it, and doesn't want the can of worms opened again. And possibly because it has been made clear by the USA that the way to progress to a bright future of an oil industry is to make damn sure Megrahi stays labelled as the "Lockerbie bomber" and nobody has to start looking for anyone else.
No comprendo a lot of this.
I wonder about this too, Rolfe. However, if Libya wanted to play it "low key", why was al Megraghi welcomed home with such a noisy public celebration?ReplyDelete
Maybe the whole thing wasn`t micro-managed to the extent we in the west assume and the whole thing at Tripoli Airport was just a spontaneous celebration.
Its seems to be quite significant that the Americans were quite forthright in their demand that there was no triumphalist celebration of the first anniversary of his release, but maybe there was none planned anyway.
Libya`s general attitude now seems to be well summed up by Dr Suayeh in the article with the Maltese journalist above... "We always felt that Libya was wronged by the Lockerbie affair. We always wanted to be law abiding, and all that we hope for now, with this chapter behind us, is to foster better relations with everybody, hoping that truth prevails," Dr Suayeh says. In other words "we`re not going to rock the boat but if others do it and are successful, then that will suit us too."
I never assumed Megrahi's welcome was micro-managed. At the time, Libyan authorities said they'd tried their best to comply with the requests to make it low-key, but they simply couldn't stop people showing up in a public place. Megrahi is a member of a prominent, influential tribe, and most of those present were said to be his relations to one degree or another.ReplyDelete
It was compounded by there being some sort of youth rally going on in Tripoli at the time (can't remember the exact details), so there were a lot of potential revellers close to hand to come in and revel.
Regarding the Herald story quoted, I distinctly remember Kenny MacAskill at the time of the release saying "he may die sooner, he may survive longer."ReplyDelete
This becomes "now revealed...." just how, exactly?

This morning whilst scouring the internet for all sorts of gorgeous expensive things that I don't need and can't afford anyway, I came across a particular designer's brand new range of AW15 bags, and since then I've been struggling to put into words how I feel about them.Yes this is a EUR 945 / £694.43 hand embroidered designer clutch bag, by Sarah's Bag, made to look just like a medication packet for Prozac…
After looking into this further I've found out that Sarah's Bag have created a whole collection of 'medicine' themed clutch bags. The majority of them literally shocked me – (I've added a description about each medication under each bag to explain which illness that particular medication is for)Lexotanine Day Le Carre Clutch bag, EUR1215: Lexotanil / Bromazepam is marketed under several different names including Lectopam, Lexotan, Lexilium, Lexaurin, Brazepam, Rekotnil, Bromaze, Somalium and Lexotanil, it is a benzodiazepine derivative drug. It has mainly an anti-anxiety agent with similar side effects to valium.Melatonin Day Case, EUR 675: Melatonin is a hormone found naturally in the body, so melatonin used as medicine is usually made synthetically in a laboratory. People use melatonin to adjust the body's internal clock. It is used for jet lag, for adjusting sleep-wake cycles in people whose daily work schedule changes (shift-work disorder), and for helping blind people establish a day and night cycle. Melatonin is also used for the inability to fall asleep (insomnia); delayed sleep phase syndrome (DSPS); insomnia associated with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)Prozak Day Box, EUR 945: Prozac (fluoxetine) is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) antidepressant. Prozac affects chemicals in the brain that may become unbalanced and cause depression, panic, anxiety, or obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Prozac is used to treat major depressive disorder, bulimia nervosa (an eating disorder) obsessive-compulsive disorder, and panic disorder.Xanak's Day Clutch Me, EUR 594: Xanax (alprazolam) is a benzodiazepine (ben-zoe-dye-AZE-eh-peen). Alprazolam affects chemicals in the brain that may become unbalanced and cause anxiety. Xanax is used to treat anxiety disorders, panic disorders, and anxiety caused by depression.
Now I'm a big fan of kitsch and novelty bags and accessories, if I had the money I'd definitely be treating myself to some Charlotte Olympia goodness, and actually ASOS have some pretty awesome budget friendly ones in stock right now too. But this just doesn't make any sense to me. Why on earth would anyone want to make a bag like this? And why would anyone buy it? WHO would buy it?
With over a quarter of the population being affected at any one point in the lifetime, mental illness is obviously no laughing matter. Yet products keep popping up on the market that trivialise and make fun of these illnesses as well as sufferers. Remember that Joy greetings card from last year? And the 'joke' hand sanitiser aimed at those with OCD?
I suffer on and off with mental illnesses including anxiety and depression, but putting myself aside, someone very close to me suffers a lot worse than I do. She has been prescribed Prozac, for many years as she has severe debilitating, life-altering depression. She finds it difficult to function normally. She struggles to get up in the morning, to wash and look after herself, and I'm not even going into the social effects this has had on her.
How do you think she would feel if I went to visit her tomorrow sporting my brand new hand stitched designer clutch bag that's styled like a medicine packet for her own medication, emblazoned with the pop-art style, comedy-esque slogan 'Prozak – Feels like heaven every day'?
I'm just at a loss for words. I really am.
I mean have I missed something here? Am I so blinded by the thoughts and feelings created by my own illness that I've somehow missed the blindingly obvious joke? I just feel a bit flabbergasted and confused about the whole thing.
I'd be interested to hear what you think about this so please so let me know your thoughts in the comments.

|A few quick news items courtesy of MOON PHASE:
Next week marks the start of the Summer 2006 season, so it's time for another preview. What the last couple of seasons have taught me is that I'll watch the first episode of almost every show within certain parameters (in other words, not the kiddie shows). So instead of specifically saying what I'm going to watch and not going to watch, I'm going to outline my initial thoughts here most of the shows based on preliminary information and trailers. In addition, I'm adding a line about the chances of me blogging the first episode with at least screencaps and some impressions, if not a summary. Keep in mind this list does not quite include everything, and in particular does not have the two WOWOW series Taiyou no Mokushiroku (which appears to be a short) and Kemono Zume (which isn't starting until August and doesn't have much information to go on right now). Finally, even if chances are good that I'll blog the first episode of a series, that doesn't mean I'll stick with it for more than an episode. Certain days of the week – Thursdays and Saturdays – have always had too many interesting shows, and I have to ultimately make a decision on what to follow and what not to. This season fortunately doesn't have the insane number of new shows that Spring did, but we'll see how it turns out.
Note: All times are given in a 24-hour, relative-day format where times are extended to show which day they belong to. For instance, Friday morning at 1:30AM would become Thurday at 25:30 to show that the episode aired late Thursday night.
By no means is this list complete, these are just the series I watch/am planning to watch. Check out MOON PHASE for an entire listing, syoboi's calendar for specific air-times, and AndrewLB's Summer 2006 Wiki for who's tentatively subbing what.

A camerawoman follows around a mobile suit group in a not-so-far future setting with global strife. This is a mecha series, but it has a little similarity to current geopolitical situation. I'm not a big fan of the character designs, though the premise and the fact that this is a mecha series has me interested at least a little. Technically the first episode of this show has already aired, and the second episode is due in a few days, but it's on Bandai Channel, which is a premium service.

The series that needs no introduction, this is the continuation of the highly popular series from last year, meaning the return of Morita, Takemoto, Hagu-chan, and all the others. This time around, the series will only be 13 episodes. I'm most looking forward to a lot of good music by Suga Shikao and Spitz. What's more, this season will feature background music by the popular acoustic guitar duo DEPAPEPE, which makes me doubly excited.
Odds I'll Blog This: Guaranteed
Sometime in his past past, Hakuoro appears to have killed a family and then several of the soldiers who came to stop him.
So I've been working on catching up, but having an entire's week worth to do is a lot. I've already gotten caught up on some of the bigger shows (Blood+, Haruhi, Ouran High), and most of the rest will come eventually. I say most because there will likely be a few changes in what I watch and blog. So if I don't cover your favorite series, please don't send me an email telling me that I've forgotten to write about it. I haven't forgotten – either I haven't had the time or I don't have the movitation to continue on with the series in question. This is especially true given that next week starts the new season (more on that coming very soon), meaning that there are lots of new shows I will be giving priority over some of the older ones.
Once again, a big Thank You to everyone for supporting me and this site through the past week and through the past year. :)Continue Reading "The Disclaimer"
