L02S - So Soon!
It is coming up to that time of year again...
In no time at all we will be going on our summer residential programme - Lift Off to Success (L02S). Lift Off to Success is a great opportunity for people to see what it is really like to be a student at college and university. On LO2S you will get to eat and sleep like students do and you also get to see what kinds of things that students study and where.
For some people LO2S might be the first time that they have stayed away from home / in their own room, so it's completely normal to feel a bit nervous or excited about it. If you have been offered a place on LO2S this year and you have any questions or you're worried about anything then feel free to give someone from the LIFT OFF team a phone (01333 433552).
We hope you're looking forward to LO2S as much as we are!

Lee Andrews and stars of TV - RIP
Let's say farewell to a doowop artist who later had a Northern Soul hit - Lee Andrews, who has died at the age of 79. And to a whole raft of UK TV personalities of the sixties and seventies who seem to have crashed out of this life at around the same time and whose deaths I haven't yet mentioned.
Lee Andrews, from Philadelphia, and the Hearts recorded some excellent doowop records for a
Now a quick run through of the British TV people who have died recently (apologies to American readers who will most likely not have heard of any of them).
Magician Paul Daniels was a mainstay of Saturday night TV for around 20 years, along with his assistant and, later, wife, the 'lovely' Debbie McGee. His catchphrase was 'You'll like it - not a lot - but you'll like it', which was true I suppose.
Presenter Cliff Michelmore virtually invented the role of TV presenter with the Tonight show in the fifties and sixties and he was present for General Elections and space shots throughout that time. Later he presented the Holiday show but most tributes have featured an interview he did with David Bowie (David Jones as he then was) in 1964 when the young David was pleading for protection of men with long hair.
Tony Warren was the creator of Coronation Street, a programme which first aired in 1960 and which is still going strong. I confess to being a Corrie fan and have watched it, off and on, for all of its 56 year history.
Finally, and admittedly his death was some time ago, I must pay a belated tribute to Sir Terry Wogan, who brought his lighthearted Irish charm to TV and radio over several decades and who was the first to take the piss - very deservedly - out of the Eurovision Song Contest.
Thanks to you all and RIP.

Atticus Metal Tour III [Review]
Last night, six bands shook up the stage at Northern Lights for the last night of the Atticus Metal Tour III. The line-up was as follows: a local band, This or the Apocalypse, The Human Abstract, As Blood Runs Black, Darkest Hour and Born of Osiris. It was an awesome Metal show that left me with a sore neck and legs from rocking out so hard, but it was definitely worth it!
I originally went to the show solely for The Human Abstract and Darkest Hour, but I left with a love for a new band and deep appreciation for the others.
The first band was local but their name escapes me. They must be in the early days of their band and performances because while they sounded awesome, they all looked straight out of high school. They had some friends there for support, however, which was nice to see.
The next band I had never heard of, but they completely blew my mind. It takes a lot for a band I don't know to impress me when the first time I am hearing them is live, but I was beyond impressed. The Lancaster, Pennsylvania quintet This or the Apocalypse were connected and unified by their music, which was full of awesome screams and amazing melodic breakdowns. They got the crowd going and ready for the upcoming bands. I will definitely be buying their album.
Los Angeles residents The Human Abstract followed. I've been a fan of them since their debut album Nocturne in
2006. They've had many member changes over the years, but I think their current line-up works great for them, as they sounded awesome and got the crowd even more riled up. They sang only about five songs, but they were from all three of their albums. Songs included "Vela, Together we Await the Storm," "Complex Terms" and "Digital Veil." It was also guitarist Henry Selva's birthday, so the crowd sang to him as he drank from a bottle of JB which he shared with the band. If you haven't listened to them, I highly recommend you do. They are different and quite amazing.
Los Angeles Death Metal quintet As Blood Runs Blackperformed next. I don't particularly care for them, but they are great performers. Frontman Sonik had great energy, interacted with the crowd, and often had a smile on his face while singing. I was surprised that the crowd was a tame as they were. It was a small crowd to begin with, but I figured they'd go insane for ABRB. They actually reacted to The Human Abstract more strongly than ABRB, and I expected it to be the other way around. However, they still put on a good show and helped me enjoy myself even more.
My fourth favorite band Darkest Hour performed second to last. They hail from Washington D.C., which explains why a lot of their music involves politics, society, wars and other world affairs. I've seen them before, but they get better each time. Vocalist John Henry, who looked great with his grown-out hair, was right on point musically and his screams were more ferocious than ever. The other members were great back-up, with their mentally and musically stimulating riffs and breakdowns. Songs sang include: "Savor the Kill," "Doomsayer," "Demons" and "Sadist Nation." They were amazing, and I of course went crazy for them, singing my heart out along with John, jumping up and down and headbanging like nobody's business. They are truly inspiring and every time I see them I am grateful, and happy of course!
Born of Osiris were the headliners, and I only stayed for a couple of songs, but the Chicago, Illinois sextet blew up the
stage and got the crowd really going. I think the small crowd was saving all of their pent up energy for the headliners. I saved mine for THA and DH, however, so I was all set to go when Born of Osiris took the stage. I didn't want to leave without hearing them though, so I stayed for a couple songs, and they seemed like they were pretty good. I'm sure the crowd left happy.
I had never been to a concert where it was the bands last show on the tour, so I felt very honored that I got to witness "the last show." All the bands were amazing and did a great job, and I had a blast. It's nights like these that make me fall in love with music even more and further prove I want to dedicate my life to it. I can't wait until I can officially say to people, "hello, my name is Jen, and I'm a Music Journalist."
Were you at the concert last night? What did you think? What band was your favorite?

I was just chatting with someone about *something exciting that I'm going to be posting on this blog soon and realized that I've been very, very lax about posting on here at all. And, well, since I want people to actually read about this thing I'm going to post about, I should probably try to keep what few followers I have interested, right?
*No, I can't tell you yet. Don't even ask.
I got up earlier than I had intended, but I worked for a few hours and then got in Greg's car to take Sydney to her last physical therapy appointment. (Her knee is doing much better, thanks for asking.) I was using Greg's car because my dad had my car at his place of business getting new brakes put onto it. (About 10 days ago, it started making this awful grinding noise. I'm sure the kids wanted to wave to all of their friends while we drove around town.)
Sydney's appointment was fine. I was able to get a walk-in eye appointment and go back to contacts! Yay. We went to Quizonos for lunch. Then we got in the car and onto the interstate. We were about 2 feet past the last exit for the town we were in...and my tire goes flat. Ok, fine, I'll change it. Oh, no...NOOOO, of course not. I'd like to get a hold of the previous owner of this car and beat them with a tire iron. They WELDED a freaking HITCH...OVER THE SPARE. You can't get the spare down. (Don't even get me started on why the hell they needed a hitch for a freaking PT Cruiser. What are they towing? A tricycle?)
So...I called a tire company--and a friend (I didn't want to be stuck on the interstate with semi trucks flying by with my child in the car. Let's not even mention that it was 98 degrees outside.) Friend so nicely took us off the highway and to the tire place, where I found out that it was twice as much money to fix as I had on me...and I was out of checks. (Obviously it all worked out because I'm not sleeping on the floor of the tire place.)
The shorter version of this story is that between the two doctor's and the two cars, I'm down about $800 for the day.
Tomorrow, I'm staying home and eating stale Cheetos. I probably won't condition my hair though. No need to ruin a good streak.

"I don't like the looks of this" he warned. "One false move, and we'll end up sliding into the trees below."
|Crater Lake, sparkling blue in the sunshine
Three years ago, my hubby and I made a February trip to Crater Lake, Oregon's lone National Park. We had a fabulous time snowshoeing around it's rim (read about our adventures here and also here). This scenic blue lake covered in snowy white so captivated me, I'd been plotting a winter return ever since.
In early March of this year I finally got my wish.
|The snow is crazy deep this year!
Crater Lake is a unique place. This natural wonder was created over seven thousand years ago when a violet eruption caused the collapse of Mt. Mazama, a huge volcano. Over time falling rain and melting snow collected in the hollowed-out caldera, forming a deep, clear lake. A near perfect circular shape, Crater Lake's waters boast an alarmingly bright blue hue. Measuring 1,949 feet it's the deepest lake in the US, and quite possibly the most pristine body of water on earth.
|Starting out on the Rim Trail
Despite receiving an enormous amount of snow annually (a whopping 43 feet on average!), Crater Lake National Park manages to stay open during the winter months. Access, however, is not easy. Rim Road, the only auto route circling the lake, isn't plowed so viewpoints beyond Rim Village can only be reached using skis or snowshoes. The North Entrance is closed, forcing many visitors to travel out of direction to reach the West or South Entrances. And heavy snowfall often closes the drive between Park Headquarters and the lake's rim.
|See the sign?
The other issue with visiting in winter - frequent stormy weather. Getting a clear day during this season is a crapshoot. Snowstorms and fog frequently hide the lake from view (rangers estimate it's only visible 50% of the time). On our last visit, we'd lucked out with a spectacular clear-sky weekend. I hoped for the same kind of weather this time around.
|Wizard Island
As I've mentioned before, this winter was an especially snowy one for the Cascade Mountains. One storm after another pounded Crater Lake with monster dumps, pushing the snowpack well above average. The week before our planned trip an especially large storm dropped several feet of snow in the southern Cascades, followed by two days of soaking rain. This large amount of snow closed the road to Rim Village and all week the park's website ominously warned it might not be cleared by the weekend.
|Heading across a snowy plain
But we'd made our plans, and hubby and I were still going - closed roads or not! As we made our way south from Portland I took advantage of sporadic cell service to check road conditions on the park's website. Around noon I got the news I was hoping to hear - the road to Rim Village had been reopened! Yahoo!
|Gigantic snow drifts!
After a long 5-hour drive over weather-beaten mountain roads, our trusty Subaru navigated the final switchbacks to Crater Lake's Rim Village. We were met with howling winds and cloudy skies. Occasional bursts of ice pellets pelted our faces as we climbed up a tall snowy berm ringing the parking area, to the lake overlook. My hubby and I were able to get a few quick glimpses of Crater Lake's surface before thick fog moved in and obscured everything.
|Recent rain left deep grooves in the snow
Disappointed, we took shelter in the visitor center, moping about the unfortunate weather. However, a friendly worker in the gift shop assured us that tomorrow's forecast promised sunshine. Perfect! That was the day we'd planned a snowshoeing trip along the Rim Road.
|Looking ahead to the Watchman - our destination
|Frosty trees
In winter months, the unplowed road around the crater's rim reverts to a trail for skiers and snowshoers. Although a few folks brave the entire 31-mile route, most visitors only venture 2-3 miles down the West Rim Drive before turning back. On our last visit, my hubby and I made it nearly four miles in, almost to the Watchman Overlook. Today's goal was to finish what we'd started three years ago and finally reach the Watchman.
|Spectacular viewpoint
After gathering all our gear, we again climbed up the steep snowbank to the lake's viewpoint. Under clear skies, Crater Lake sparkled an unreal shade of blue. Our snowshoe departure was delayed a good ten minutes due to copious photo-taking (I won't say by who!).
|Wizard Island is front and center
My hubby finally managed to tear me and my camera away from the spectacular sights, and begin our day's journey. We'd started fairly early, and saw only a couple of skiers as we left the Rim Village buildings. Despite the sunshine, temps hovered around freezing, creating an icy crust on the snow's surface. But cleats on our snowshoe bottoms provided excellent traction, and we made good time traveling across the firm snow.
|Another huge snow drift
After a little over a mile, we came upon Discovery Point, the first overlook. This clearing provided an excellent view of Wizard Island. Formed by later eruptions, this conical little island near the lake's west shore resembled a wizard's pointed hat. My hubby and I inched as close as we dared to the edge to take in the marvelous panorama. Overhanging snow cornices along the rim's walls forced us to stay a respectful distance back.
|Lots of snowy features to navigate
Beyond Discovery Point, my hubby and I traversed over and around a series of gigantic snowdrifts. Navigation was easy as other visitors had left a well-trampled path. We passed by an area where recent heavy rains had worn deep grooves into the snow. At one forest clearing I spotted a couple of tall peaks in the distance (I later learned one of them was Union Peak). And around one bend in the path was a view ahead to Watchman Peak, our day's destination.
|One of the crater's rim walls
Aside from a couple of skiers, my hubby and I were the only people on the outbound trail. We began to meet groups of campers heading back towards Rim Village after spending the night outside. Crater Lake National Park allows backcountry camping during the winter months, and it appeared to be popular. Although I like to camp, sleeping in a cold tent on top of snow doesn't appeal to me.
|The sun started to shine
On the previous day a ranger had warned of a treacherous section along the Rim Road. Just beyond the Watchman, the road was cut into a steep cliff. On plentiful snow years (such as this one) the roadcut filled up with snow creating a steep, avalanche-prone cross-slope to traverse. Our previous trip three years ago had occurred during a lower than average snowfall year, and we'd had no trouble following the road. But the ranger's advice became real when we met a young man snowshoeing back towards Rim Village. Planning to travel around the entire lake, the man said he was stopped by an unstable, slippery slope just beyond the Watchman. Not wanting to risk dying in a fall or avalanche, he'd turned around.
|Fantastic reflections on the lake's surface
Despite the young man's warnings, my hubby and I decided to continue as far as we could. We passed another fabulous overlook of Wizard Island (photo break time!)
|People climbing the snowbanks onto a rooftop
Although we'd initially made good time, the intense sun's rays were quickly taking their toll on our icy trail. The snow began to melt, and the softer the snow became, the harder it was to snowshoe upon, and the slower our progress. I began to notice small slides and snow rollers traveling down some of the steeper side slopes.
|Crater Lake's clear surface reflecting the sky
Finally a little over 3 miles in, we came upon a steep, hazardous-looking slope. Soft snow was beginning to slide in a few places, and only one set of tracks (from the young male snowshoer we presumed) wandered across the incline. My hubby wasn't at all comfortable crossing this area, pointing out if we slipped, it would be a long downhill slide to the forest below.
|Another fabulous view
So the decision was made to end our day's journey here. Before turning around, hubby and I took a seat in the snow, and enjoyed a leisurely lunch break. The sun was warm, we inhaled some tasty treats, and the surrounding scenery was top notch. Although we'd fallen short of our original day's goal, the consolation prize wasn't too bad!
|Grab a seat on this cabin's roof!
Then it was time for the long trek back to Rim Village. Soft, sticky snow slowed our pace, but I enjoyed passing by all the wonderful viewpoints a second time around. The sun's powerful rays lit Crater Lake's surface, turning it a brilliant shade of blue. High clouds reflected on the water's surface. Truly magical!
|Mt Thielsen in the distance
The closer we got to Rim Village, the more people we encountered on the trail. With one mile to go, hubby and I felt as if we'd happened upon a crowded downtown sidewalk. Even in the dead of winter, Crater Lake is a busy place on weekends.
|A huge snowdrift at Crater Lake Lodge
Finally the visitor center and Rim Village buildings came into view. My hubby, tired and sore from our adventure, opted to rest in the car. But it was still early afternoon and such a lovely day, I didn't want to leave just yet.
|The Lodge was shuttered for the winter
So I grabbed my camera and headed towards the shuttered Crater Lake Lodge. Open during summer months, this historic structure was boarded up for the season. I marveled at the huge snowdrifts that had formed behind the building. They were nearly as high as the third floor windows!
|Road plowed through the deep snow
Other buildings were also buried in snow. One near Rim Village had drifts extending over the roof, and people were climbing up the rooftop and sliding down. Another smaller cabin, also buried up to its eaves, had three people perched on the very peak of the roof, enjoying this amazing scenery from an unusual perspective.
|Crater Lake Pano (click to see larger image)
A few fun facts about this unique national park:
The lake is 4.5 to 6 miles wide.
Although the average snowfall is 43 feet per year, the greatest cumulative snowfall ever recorded was 73 feet during the winter of 1932-33. The greatest depth of snow on the ground at one time was 21 1/2 feet in 1983. Normally the snow melts by August, but some years (probably this one) many drifts stick around until the snow returns again.
Due to its extreme depth, Crater Lake rarely freezes in winter. Temperatures normally aren't cold enough to freeze this large amount of water. The last complete surface freeze was in 1949, although 95% of the surface froze in 1985.
|Wonderful day to be outside!

All-On-4 Dental Implants
All-On-4® Benefits
There isn't anything quite like having a full, vibrant smile to let the world know just how happy about life and living that you are. Several failing, or missing teeth, or even a denture that doesn't feel right for you, however, can take away from your ability to express yourself fully.
When you have one or more teeth missing, dental implants provide an efficient, and convenient way to replace them. Dental implants are small posts that are able to hold teeth in place once they've been fused to the jawbone around them.
While a dental implant procedure can provide numerous advantages, they can be costly, especially in the case of replacing multiple teeth. Luckily several advances in dental technology and treatment have aided both patients and dentists with what is known as All-On-4 dental implants. All-On-4 dental implants offer a cost-efficient and simple solution for replacing missing or damaged teeth.
How do All-On-4 Dental Implants Work?
Before the innovation that is All-On-4 dental implants, patients would need multiple implants placed in the jawbone in order to fix multiple missing or damaged teeth. Multiple implants required an extensive amount of grafting, accompanied by a long recovery period. After 4 to 6 months of healing (as well as going without teeth for this time period) a patient would finally be able to receive their replacement teeth. With the All-On-4 procedure, there is only a total of four implants needed to replace an entire mouthful of missing teeth.
For patients that are missing a majority of their teeth, and are not wanting to downgrade to a potentially ill-fitting denture, All-On-4 can provide a great solution. Based on the quality of the bone, if the strength of the implants is adequate, replacement of an entire arch of permanently fixed teeth is possible. All-On-4 eliminates the pain and soreness that commonly accompanies immediate dentures, as well as the embarrassment of missing all of your teeth.
The Best Cosmetic Dentist Dr. de Cardenas
Miami's Dr. Andres de Cardenas and his staff of caring, concerned professionals want you to know when you walk into their office you're valued as a patient. That's why Dr. de Cardenas also wants you to know you do have options when it comes to improving your teeth and smile. One of your options is called the All-on-4® treatment concept.
All-on-4® Dental Implants
All-on-4® Dental Procedure
In the comfort and security of his Miami office, using the All-on-4® treatment concept, Dr. de Cardenas can completely replace an upper or lower set of teeth no matter the existing bone volume. Using only four titanium implants, a full upper and/or lower denture (containing 12 to 14 teeth) can be supported. Taking great care, Dr. de Cardenas fully customizes these full-arch prosthetics to your individual specification, giving you a fit and feel as good as, and in many cases better than, your original teeth. The new prosthetic teeth are your teeth, allowing you to eat, talk, and, most importantly, smile confidently in front of your family, friends and new acquaintances.
All-on-4® Treatment in Miami, Florida
The All-on-4® treatment concept has some two unique benefits. With the All-on-4® treatment option, you'll have a new smile in one day. Dr. de Cardenas' All-on-4® patients have functioning teeth and a beautiful smile immediately after the procedure.
Additionally, your new teeth are fixed and non-removable, you can treat them like natural teeth. In total, the All-on-4® implants can be your permanent tooth replacement solution.
Is All-on-4® Right for Me?
You should consider All-on-4® if:
- You have several missing or failing teeth
- You are in need of multiple implants
- You wear dentures
Looking to show your loved ones and friends how excited you are about them or about life with a wonderful smile, then Dr. Andres de Cardenas invites you to come in and find out how the All-on-4® treatment concept can give you the confidence and security there is in a vibrant smile.

The leading
Administrative VS. Judicial Remedial Powers And Relief Options
by Joseph P. Whalen
The U.S. Constitution vests the Legislative Branch with the authority to make the law. The Executive Branch is charged with enforcing the law. The Judicial Branch is left to interpret the laws passed as they are interpreted, applied, and enforced.
Congress frequently passes laws that express an intent and a desire to achieve some tangible outcomes but does not provide a step-by-step blueprint to implement the laws it passes. The Executive Departments and Agencies are then left to find a way to implement the laws passed by Congress. In short, to make it work, make it function, or simply handle it. Therefore, out of necessity agencies must write regulations and/or, other interpretive and instructional materials to work out the nuts and bolts of many primary, secondary, and ancillary matters. The U.S. Supreme Court has begrudgingly acknowledged that the regulations promulgated by the Executive in order to interpret, implement and enforce the laws passed by the Legislature are generally due substantial deference as long as they do not run afoul of the Constitution and/or societal expectations and sensibilities (norms).
The Executive's approach is a much more practical one than that of either of the other Branches of government. The Judiciary is left with heady questions to ponder in evaluating the Constitutionality of the laws passed by Congress and the Executive's regulations, policies, and procedures to give practical effect to those laws. In short, Congress is free to argue about and debate ad nauseum various issues (often compromising on points or their principles), and be vague or overtly political while the Courts are allowed to be thoroughly impractical in search of due process and fundamental fairness. However, both of the other Branches give deference to the Executive's practical utilitarian applications in most instances and in the immigration context especially[1] . This is most likely because the Executive agencies are the ones that must either do it or might simply ignore it. Remember that neither a Judge or Justice, nor a Member of Congress will be the one drudging through the desert apprehending illegal entrants who violate our international borders or detaining and then deporting them.
In addition, it will also usually be a USCIS Officer or Official who will adjudicate naturalization applications or claims to citizenship as well as actually prepare and present a Certificate of Naturalization or Citizenship. In a growing number of naturalizations, USCIS administers the Oath of Renunciation and Allegiance.
It is especially in the naturalization and citizenship cases where USCIS gives great deference to, and fully observes every last word of, the Congressionally-mandated requirements as well as, the Judicially-determined interpretations of them, and a variety of ancillary matters such as burdens and standards of proof as well as evidentiary weight. In effect, USCIS is tightly bound by the letter of the law as written by Congress and the spirit of the law as expressed by the Courts. In addition, USCIS, along with the rest of the Executive Branch, is not in the position to challenge, interpret or even consider the Constitutionality of the laws it administers and enforces. It is because of that last matter being within the authority of the Courts that USCIS, AAO, IJs, and the BIA etc.., are unable to even entertain requests for equitable estoppel or consider arguments relating to res judicata. Those remedies are only within the power of the Courts. The Department of State (DOS) may entertain claims to citizenship and nationality via requests for Consular Reports of Birth and/or passport applications filed at consulates and embassies abroad. DOS is similarly situated as USCIS in regard to remedial authority. Below is an excerpt from a non-precedent case on point issued November 25, 2011, in the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.
Jose Dominguez-Gonzalez v. Hillary Clinton, No. 11-50033 Summary Calendar (5th Cir., 11/25/2011)[2] , notes in pertinent part:
"Equitable relief is generally not available with respect to the conferral of citizenship. "[T]he power to make someone a citizen of the United States has not been conferred upon the federal courts, like mandamus or injunction, as one of their generally applicable equitable powers." I.N.S. v. Pangilinan, 486 U.S. 875, 883-84 (1988).
"An alien who seeks political rights as a member of this Nation can rightfully obtain them only upon terms and conditions specified by Congress. Courts are without authority to sanction changes or modifications; their duty is rigidly to enforce the legislative will in respect of a matter so vital to the public welfare." Id. at 884 (quoting United States v. Ginsberg, 243 U.S. 472, 474 (1917)).
The Courts have devised various tests and frameworks for the exercise of its remedial powers, which although limited, exceed the remedial powers available to the administrative appellate bodies. Such remedies that derive from the Constitution and/or those provisions within the old common law system that have survived since 1789, when Congress was first in session and the Constitution became effective are only available in Courts. There are many forms of relief available from the Executive agencies when such authority has been given to it in a statute as a matter of discretion. In addition, an agency is free to correct its mistakes such as when it enters a decision nunc pro tunc or reverses a decision on administrative appeal or via a motion to reopen and/or reconsider. Administrative agencies do from time to time reverse their own Precedents; or distinguishes them; or may depart, or deviate from them in part, or by exceptions. Executive interpretations continue to evolve along with the laws, or via reinterpretations as it learns new subject matter in the same manner as the Courts continue to evolve its doctrines. In the final analysis, the remedial powers of the Judicial and Administrative Jurists have diverse underlying bases that control not just precisely what remedial power is available, but also just how far it goes.

An elderly woman needed medical treatment after a house fire in Derbyshire today (Ferbruary 16).
Crews from Heanor and Ilkeston fire stations were called to the property on Church View, in Loscoe, after the kitchen caught on fire just before 1pm.
The service used a hose reel jet, a thermal imaging camera and a CO2 extinguisher to put out the blaze - as well as specialist breathing equipment.
A spokesman said an ambulance was requested for one elderly female who suffered with smoke inhalation.
First aid and treatment was carried out by the fire service.
The stop message was received at 1.40pm.

December 27th:
The gate was opened on time. Thanks God my sister and I checked the LCD screens. Our boarding gate was changed at the last moment and you know how the airports are crowded this time of the year...
After flyin for about half hour, I met this just-divorced man. I inmediately noticed that he sees life so diferently. The guy gave me a strange look and asked me about what I was reading. "Well connected: restoring hope through Kingdom partnerships" is not a common title, more when contrasted to this guys book: "The history of farthing". I never thought you could ever find books with that title.
After throwing a couple of "bate-phrases", I knew this guy was needful to speak, not to listened, so I remitted myself to ask questions and make reciprocal expressions of understanding. It resulted that his ex-wife was 9 years older than him. They had been faithful to each other all the time, no extreme fighting or hitting, their two daughters were just leaving for college, so the only reason I could think of for them not staying together was the age difference. -"Ha ha ha, age difference? of course not!"- he replied. -"That has nothing to do with our problems, is just that she likes to suffer all the time and she wants me to suffer with her. I still have faith that I will find a woman that truly loves me and wants me to be happy without being a victim". Well, I think he enjoyed being listened to. I never asked this man his name.
As promised, as soon as we stepped in St. Louis, there was somebody to help us find our way. A large information booth and a guy called Jay where our support to get to our hotels. We got to the metro link, and we were greeted by other 4 or 5 urbana atendees. I had my first theological conversation with Jay during our way to our hotels: topics like church narrowmindedness, priority and relevance of the gospel in a postmodern generation added to a little Brian McLaren's Emerging Church movement dispute. What a way to start our adventures!
We finally split after getting to downtown. I was greeted by this just-engaged canadian girl with last name Singh. The irony of this is that I had just unawarely won a contest of the funniest last name on that hotel's guest list! After registering, I ran to my sisters hotel and we headed to the America's Center. My sister had to register there, and I couldn't wait to see the Dome, so I left her with her new friends and went to explore a few interesting places. People from all around the world, gathered in the same place, getting out from every single door and perfectly identified with their name tags silently greeted me with their wandering smiles.
Against all odds, I was able to find the rest of the mexican team and some of the pioneers of the students ministry in Mexico... The excitement of what I was about to experiment in this convention didn't allowed me to sleep; well, added to the so frequent hitting I received from one of my roommates while sleeping...
Oración en Urbana:
"Señor, vengo ante ti con quebranto, pidiendo un abrazo de paz. Gracia por las tremendas oportunidades que me das de conocerte, de entender algunos conceptos que son más de lo que yo hubiese imaginado entender algún día. Pero aquí estoy, llorando como niño en medio de unos cuantos miles de jóvenes, sabiendo que nada de lo que tengo vale sin ti. Aún así, sabiendo que incluso todo lo que tengo es por ti, es tan inútil en mis manos ineptas. Te amo Padre, deseo amar a la gente a mi alrededor como tu quieres que ame, con entrega, con desinterés y con toda falta de egoísmo posible en mi humanidad. No permitas que regrese a casa sin el bonche de experiencias que me has traido a experimentar para que de esa manera haya avance de mi hacia ti. De manera que soluciones y acciones se vayan materializando de la mejor manera. De manera que caminos se vayan creando aún ante mi impotencia. Te pido que la diferencia que tanto añoro sea tu diferencia, orquestada día a día por tu dirección y acorde siempre a las intrucciones de tu voz. Quiero ser sabio, diligente y humilde. Quiero entender tu llamado para mi como tu lo entiendes. Quiero hacer lo que quieras que yo haga, sin importar qué tan difícil, doloroso o denigrante sea. Guíame Señor y preséntame a tu equipo de trabajo. El desafío es tan grande pero tu eres aún más grande y añoras que seamos herramientas de transformación para establecer tu Reino en la Tierra con poder y amor. ¿Qué es eso a lo que le tengo miedo? ¿Qué es eso de lo que me he cansado de justificar para no hacer, para dejar de lado? ¿Cuales son esas cosas? No tengo duda, sé que te las tengo que entregar..."

Our first glance at the video gave us the impression that Super Paper Mario would be a departure from the previous Paper Mario games, going for a 2D platforming style of gameplay as opposed to the previous role-playing game slant that really shone in The Thousand Year Door. And as we learned yet again with New Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo DS, there's absolutely nothing wrong with traditional 2D gameplay. The visual twists will perhaps be enough to keep things fresh, and we were drawn to the overlapping layers of multicolored boxes used to produce the game's trees and clouds. It takes some thinking outside the box to imagine that the reddish-hued boxes are symbolizing fruits on the tree, but this kind of radical direction in game artistry will undoubtedly be part of the appeal.
A none-too-subtle homage to previous Super Mario games is exciting to witness as well, with invincibility power-ups allowing the playable characters, Mario, Peach, and Bowser, to transform into giant versions of their 8-bit selves, who can then rampage across a level, smashing up all blocks in their path and knocking any enemies unlucky enough to be in their way absolutely senseless. The three starring characters have their own unique attributes, of course, with Mario being well-rounded, Peach able to float gently with the aid of her parasol, and the lumbering Bowser having use of his flaming breath. And of course, you have real-time character switching, and can thus swap between abilities on the fly.
The gameplay is then revealed to be far deeper than just 2D platforming, though. Mario (and presumably the other characters as well) will be able to turn his perspective, and in turn the player's, 90 degrees, meaning that what was once a 2D left-to-right side-scrolling adventure has now become a top-down vertical platformer with true depth. Other levels reveal Mario wearing a bubble helmet with antenna, perhaps a tie-in to his upcoming Wii game, Super Mario Galaxy. In Super Paper Mario, he'll be able to float through space, blasting critters and asteroids with a spaceman raygun. Indoor levels that presumably take place on other planets will allow the mustachioed hero to defy gravity, running vertically up and down sheer walls.
Super Paper Mario appears to be making inventive use of depth, with objects moving in and out of the backfield, and player control shifting between fast-paced 2D side-scrolling gameplay and 3D platforming. The sheer creativity behind this game is already quite remarkable, and GameCube owners should be pleased that after months of slow releases, they still have something to look forward to before Nintendo devotes all of its resources to the Wii.

These are generally not goal measurements such as you'd uncover in appropriately managed IQ scientific tests. You observed that Britain's leading universities' admissions are closer to what you'd anticipate based upon current IQ experiments and meta-reports - this is because those universities know the game currently being played. In the united states We have now witnessed this Film time and again and over again. This writer cites some faculty in Nevada that admits just the prime one in ten,000 based on IQ. Then he suggests they've admitted a person African. I am unsure that proves what he thinks it proves. Nor am I persuaded the admission of that African was without having political determination. Think about this solitary African was subsequently utilized for media/propaganda needs. In the united states plainly each and every few years some wonder in education is proclaimed - browse around this website African learners are undertaking as well as or better than white or northeast Asian learners!
The first report that induced some consternation from the IQ blogosphere indicated that black African pupils ended up apparently catching up with British white pupils on their own GCSE tests Which in truth, that they had now overtaken them at the lower stop: the very poor black Little ones were now carrying out much better than lousy white Youngsters (The Guardian, 2010).

This infographic studies the increase in delinquent student loans and tries to explain this unfortunate fad.
For the first time in history, the delinquency rate on student loans is higher than on credit cards. For those who aren't familiar with the term, it basically refers to defaulted loans. This means that there are more people unable to pay back their student loans than people unable to pay back their credit card debt.
Total outstanding student debt in the United States numbers over $956 billion. The average student debt balance has increased from approximately $15,000 in 2005 to close to $25,000 in 2012. This means more students across the board are deeper in debt due to student loans than ever before. This is the kind of pattern leading to more delinquent student loans.

BRANDON — There was nothing extravagant about the Otter Valley School District's $10,991,527 proposed budget, OV principal Dana Cole-Levesque said. After all, it was 4.8 percent higher than last year's budget of $10,479,219. But together with the school's two bond proposals, a combined $10.5 million to pay for the renovation of the 45-year old school building and the construction of a new middle school gymnasium, it was simply too much to ask of district voters.

MIDDLEBURY — Middlebury's roads are still being serviced by snowplows and sanders, but it won't be too long before they are invaded by hungry excavators and gargantuan asphalt rollers.
Town officials, local businesses and area motorists are already anticipating — some dreading — this spring and summer, when work crews will begin a busy construction season that will include more than $1.7 million in paving work for state roads running through downtown Middlebury.
"It's going to be a patience-testing summer, but then we should be in good shape for awhile," said Middlebury Director of Operations Dan Werner. "We should have a nice looking downtown, when it is done."

On Thursday night at its annual birthday dinner, Post 14 will give its 13th Community Service Award to Ann Rivers, 58, a Vergennes Area Rescue Squad crew chief and vice president who lives just down the street from VARS' Panton Road headquarters.
Rivers has put in at least 72 hours and typically more than 100 hours a month while serving as a crew chief, and has also been the agency's treasurer and clerk at different times over the past 12 years.

ADDISON COUNTY — Local advocates for migrant farm workers on Wednesday hailed a new legislative attempt by Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt. to legitimize the presence of undocumented laborers currently providing vital service to dairy farms throughout the state.
At issue is the Agricultural Job Opportunities, Benefits, And Security Act Of 2007, of which Leahy is a co-sponsor. The legislation would create a "blue card" program, through which currently undocumented people working in agriculture could secure temporary legal status, with the ultimate possibility of qualifying for a permanent legal status (a green card).
In addition, Leahy included a provision within the bill that would give undocumented dairy workers, goat herders or sheep herders a chance to legally work for an initial period of one year, with an opportunity to apply for up to three more years of temporary employment. The provision would also allow the dairy worker who has successfully worked for 36 months in temporary status to apply for permanent residency, subject to visa availability.

VERGENNES — The seven-member Vergennes City Council could have four new members after Tuesday: Mayor April Jin is facing former alderman Michael Daniels for a two-year term, while Alderman Randy Ouellette is the only incumbent in a field of five seeking three council seats.
Ouellette is facing Mathew Chabot, Christine Collette, Peter Garon and Diane Lanpher; The top three vote-getters will earn two-year terms.
All the candidates except Chabot attended a forum hosted by American Legion Post 14 on Feb. 22; Chabot was out of town on business. Jin and Daniels' opening remarks and responses to questions from the audience of about 20 were excerpted in Monday's Independent.
MIDDLEBURY — Jer Coons began gathering the tools he would need to become a successful singer-songwriter early. He was born with the talent, he got his first guitar at age six and he befriended his would-be booking manager, Spencer Kelley, in the playrooms of Mary Johnson Children's Center in Middlebury.
Together, Coons and Kelley, who both graduated from Middlebury Union High School last spring, are jumping head first into the independent music scene, preparing to make a living doing what they love.
"This fall, when Jer started getting serious about his music, we realized we could both benefit from each other," Kelley said.

MIDDLEBURY — Voters in 17 Addison County towns on March 6 will vote on the Patricia A. Hannaford Career Center's $3,079,821 budget, a 0.16 percent increase that keeps the spending plan technically level-funded. Voters will also be asked to approve an additional $143,261, next year's budget for the Adult Technical Education Program, which has increased by 4.1 percent.
Career Center director Lynn Coale said the major contributing factor to next year's level-funding was the reduction in the center's debt related to last spring's $4.3 million North Campus addition off Mainelli Road.
According to the Career Center's business manager Mark Bouvier, as a result of the construction the center's budget last year included $85,000 in short term borrowing funds as well as the project's annual principal payment of $110,000 plus interest — the Center bonded a total of $2,170,000.

WASHINGTON — The president, vice president and an array of cabinet secretaries, intelligence chiefs, generals, diplomats and advisers gathered in a windowless basement room of the White House for three hours on Wednesday to chart a new course in Afghanistan.
The one thing everyone could agree on: None of the choices is easy.
Just six months after President Obama adopted what he called a "stronger, smarter and comprehensive strategy" for Afghanistan and Pakistan, he is back at the same table starting from scratch. The choices available to him are both disparate and not particularly palatable.
He could stick with his March strategy, but his commander wants as many as 40,000 more troops to make it work. He could go radically in the other direction and embrace Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr.'s idea of using fewer troops, focused more on hunting down leaders of Al Qaeda, but risk the collapse of the Afghan government. Or he could search for some middle-ground option that avoids the risks of the other two, but potentially find himself in a quagmire.
"He's doing what he has to do: before you make a decision, you better scrub all your alternative options," said Brett H. McGurk, who worked on Afghanistan and Iraq at the National Security Council under President George W. Bush and briefly under Mr. Obama. "I just suspect they'll find, like we found with Iraq, that it's two imperfect choices."
At the heart of the decision is defining America's strategic interest in the region. Mr. Obama has called Afghanistan a "war of necessity" to stop it from becoming a haven again for Al Qaeda to attack America. The question is, how much danger is there and how many lives can be lost and dollars spent to minimize it?Continue reading the main story
Stephen Biddle, a scholar at the Council on Foreign Relations who has advised Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal, the commander in Afghanistan, said the chances of a new Qaeda stronghold that could threaten American territory was relatively low but that even a small risk was a concern.
"It's like buying life insurance for a 50-year-old," Mr. Biddle said. "The odds of a 50-year-old dying in the next year in America are substantially less than 1 percent. And yet most Americans buy life insurance."
The meeting on Wednesday was one of five planned as the president rethinks his approach in response to a dire report by General McChrystal. The session was meant to review the worsening political and security situation, while future meetings will examine options in detail.
General McChrystal's preferred option builds on the strategy outlined by Mr. Obama in March with a substantial infusion of new troops. The counterinsurgency strategy emphasized protecting civilians over just engaging insurgents, restricting airstrikes to reduce civilian casualties and sharply expanding the Afghan security forces through accelerated training.
Most counterinsurgency specialists say a larger ground force is needed to clear Taliban-held territory and hold it while instructors train enough competent Afghan soldiers and police officers, and Afghan leaders build an effective government.
"Without more troops, the insurgents can continue to maneuver around us and set I.E.D.'s, which kill our people," said Peter Gilchrist, a retired British major general and a former senior commander in Afghanistan, referring to improvised explosive devices.
"There's no question that more forces will buy more space and time, and that will translate into an effort to get more Afghan police into the hinterlands and more Afghan National Army soldiers through training," said Gen. Dan K. McNeill, the NATO commander in Afghanistan until June 2008.
Critics argue that foreign forces have never pacified Afghanistan and that more troops will only increase the perception of them being occupiers. The result would be a long, drawn-out war with many more American casualties. They say that though the Taliban are ruthless, they do not pose a danger to America, while Al Qaeda, which is a threat, is located primarily in Pakistan.
Moreover, widespread allegations of fraud in Afghanistan's presidential election have left the country's leadership uncertain and underscored that America does not have a partner in Kabul with broad public legitimacy.
At the other end of the spectrum is Mr. Biden's approach. Rather than try to protect the Afghan population from the Taliban, American forces would concentrate on eliminating the Qaeda leadership, primarily in Pakistan, using Special Operations forces, Predator missile strikes and other surgical tactics. The Americans would also accelerate training of Afghan forces and provide support as they took the lead against the Taliban.
This counterterrorism strategy, as opposed to a counterinsurgency strategy, is predicated on the theory that the real threat to American national security lies in Pakistan, not Afghanistan. Some call this proposal the "Pakistan First" option.
"Pakistan is the critical focus, the greatest security risk for the United States," said Senator John Kerry, Democrat of Massachusetts and chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee. "And all of this exercise, after all, is about our security."
Administration officials lately have been pointing to what they call great success in working with Pakistani authorities to decapitate Al Qaeda and other extremist cells.
Yet critics note that successful drone attacks require good intelligence on the ground, something that may be lost without enough forces. After Mr. Bush sent more troops to Iraq in early 2007, tips about enemy locations soared, a development some attributed to a larger American presence.
Moreover, a greater reliance on air power could mean more civilian deaths, making enemies of the very people American commanders are trying to sway.
In between those two approaches is a menu of options not especially satisfying to either side of the debate. Mr. Biddle estimates there are about a half-dozen variants in this territory, from negotiating a power-sharing arrangement with the Taliban to paying off local warlords.
Most of these options envision roughly the same number of troops as are in the country now or a smaller increase than General McChrystal's maximum request. With the reinforcements Mr. Obama ordered earlier this year, the United States will have 68,000 troops on the ground this fall. The Pentagon still has a request for another 10,000 that was deferred last spring.
Substantially expanding Afghan security forces would be critical. Senator Carl Levin, a Michigan Democrat who heads the Armed Services Committee, has said that by 2012 the Afghan Army should be increased to 240,000 troops from 92,000 and police forces to 160,000 officers from 84,000.
General McChrystal's troop request, said one administration official, offers alternatives requiring fewer than 40,000 more troops. If the goal is recalibrated to secure Afghan cities but not the countryside, then not as many more troops would be needed. And if the goal is scaled back even further, then the additional 10,000 troops previously requested could be enough.
These ideas, though, may not be big enough to change the trajectory of an effort that has muddled along for eight years. Critics on both sides said the worst of all options would be some version of staying the course.
"The middle options," Mr. McGurk said, "are either high risk or they're status quo or they're unworkable."Continue reading the main story

The Faculty Center for Teaching and Learning offers opportunities for faculty to examine important and new topics in teaching and learning with Faculty Development Cohorts (FDCs).
Faculty participate in multiple workshops, which include a series of hands-on experiences designed to help innovate or refine teaching techniques and learning activities. Participants may receive support from representatives of the Faculty Center, Office of Institutional Research, Research Initiative for Teaching Effectiveness (RITE), Research and Commercialization, Office of Instructional Resources, Center for Distributed Learning, Libraries, and other relevant units and individual faculty members. After completing the workshops, participants often produce a final project for inclusion in the Faculty Center Web site.
Registration is open until September 10th at 5:00 p.m. for Fall 2015 FDCs; topics for the semester are "Bring Your Own Device" and "Role-Immersion Activities for Student Engagement." For further details, including dates, times, and the registration link, please visit http://fctl.ucf.edu/Events/FacultyDevelopmentCohorts/.
September 7-13, 2015 is National Suicide Prevention Week. The International Association for Suicide Prevention (IASP), in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO) and the World Federation for Mental Health, is hosting World Suicide Prevention Day on September 10th, 2015. This year's theme is "Preventing Suicide: Reaching Out and Saving Lives," and will focus on raising awareness that suicide is a major preventable cause of premature death on a global level.
Here at UCF, we will be hosting our annual "Field of Memories: Be Aware Show You Care" Flag Exhibit on Memory Mall, September 10th from 9:00-3:00. The exhibit is a powerful and poignant visual display representing the 1100 suicides that occur on U. S. college campuses each year. We will be asking students, faculty and staff, as they walk by to write a message of hope to someone who may be struggling with depression or to remember someone lost to suicide. The goal is to fill the field with over a 1000 yellow flags. We are asking for volunteers to help collect the flags to display or to just come out to Memory Mall to support the event by writing your own message of hope to display in the field.
We will also be advertising our QPR a Thon – Suicide Prevention Training, which will be held the following week on Sept, 16th in the Student Union rm 316AB. QPR (Question, Persuade, Refer), guided by certified trainers, is a program designed for everyone to learn what can be done to prevent suicide. The training session is a one hour presentation where you will learn the signs of suicide and three basic principles of how to help save a life. QPR is designed for students, faculty and staff and anyone at UCF. The trainings begin at 9:00am with a new session starting on the top of each hour. The last training offered will at 2:00 pm.
Together we can reduce the number of lives shaken by a needless and tragic death. Please contact Teresa Michaelson-Chmelir at Counseling and Psychological Services for more information. email@example.com

Join a faculty writing club to focus on productivity and camaraderie. Having trouble getting into a good writing rhythm? Need to get away from your office to get a change of perspective and a little privacy? Forget the coffee shop—join your colleagues on Thursday and Friday mornings from 10:00 a.m.–12:00 p.m. in the Faculty Center for a loosely structured writing session. We'll take five or six minutes each week to go around the room and state a goal for the time block and then spend the rest of the time working on our individual projects. Bring your own laptop or use a Faculty Center computer. And of course there will be coffee. Everyone is welcome!

Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
In the Signal Tribune's May 1 edition, we asked readers if they recognized Al, one of the many firemen who battled the blaze at the Hancock Oil Refinery in 1958. Long Beach resident Lloyd Colson, III wrote in, saying:
My boyhood friend sent me a copy of your Hancock Fire Remembered special edition [May 22, 2008]. Also, he previously emailed me a photo asking, in essence, "Does anyone know who these guys are?" I am Lloyd Colson, III, and am the son of the late Lloyd Colson, Jr. who was the fire chief of the Signal Hill Fire Department at the time of the Hancock fire. His father, my grandfather Lloyd Colson, Sr., served on the Signal Hill City Council back in the late 1940s and is listed on the memorial in front of City Hall. My family has lived in Signal Hill since the early 1920s. I lived there until my marriage in 1968. My mother Ada lived there until the mid-1980s. Most of my grandparents' generation were residents until the day they died. However, none of them are buried in Signal Hill Cemetery.
My Dad had a collection of photos of the fire. While she was still living, our former neighbor and dear friend Joy Elliott took this collection of photos and, in the family name, donated them to the Signal Hill Historical Society. I trust that the Historical Society still has these photos. Perhaps they were included in your special edition.
Regarding the "Does anyone know…" photos, the man facing the camera was Tom Denham, father of Gilmore Denham, who was interviewed in your special edition. Gilmore was the chaplain officiant at my father's funeral. "Al" was Al Fry. He was superstitious about having the word "Fry" on the back of his fire protection coat. Ergo, he used his first name.
The photo on page 8 of the special edition, the one of the elected officials and fire personnel, was probably taken in late 1969 or even early in 1970. The fire crew are L.A. County personnel, not the old Signal Hill personnel. As you well know, the chaos caused by the Hancock fire made it obvious that, as much as we liked having our own independent fire department, we needed to join with and have access to all of the resources of the L.A. County Fire Department. The woman in the photo is Nellie Combellek, who served on the Council for years. Her home was the one on the southeast corner of Lewis and 33rd Street.
My cousin Tom Walton still lives in Signal Hill, and on my visit to him last summer, I gave him several copies of photos of the Council when my grandfather was a member, and several photos of the fire department, taken in about 1948. I had the names of all of the individuals in the photos written on the back of each photo. Tom was supposed to give the photos to his neighbor, the mayor. But I do not know if he has done this yet or not.
If you have any other photos that you might like someone to try and identify the individuals, please feel free to email them to me and I will do my best to see if I can remember their names. It is only fair to tell you that I am at the age and stage in life where it is easier for me to remember the Pledge of Allegiance in Latin, from first period Latin class at Poly High, than it is to remember what I saw on the news last night. However, since we are looking at photos from the 1940s and 1950s, my memory will probably work just fine. Hell, I still think of the owner-publisher of the Tribune as Harvey Harris. In my childhood, he was always the arch-enemy when it came to political issues! Ha!!!
Thank you for the wonderful special edition. I truly enjoyed seeing and reading it. Also, I was able to share it with my son Lloyd, IV, who, needless to say, was born years after the events covered in this edition.

At Best Contract Furniture we offer a wide range of pre-owned furniture and equipment ex four and five star hotels. These items are pre-owned and are therefore in a used condition which may vary from item to item.
Second hand furniture is often a great way of obtaining quality furniture at a reduced cost, plus you can congratulate yourself on helping the environment! Another bonus that comes with buying used furniture is that lead times are very short, most of it is here in stock already. Here at Best Contract Furniture our used furniture ranges enormously from hotel bedroom sets to contract sofas and restaurant chairs so whatever it is you're looking for we can probably help you.
Due to the unpredictable nature of dealing in used furniture we are currently without any second hand stock. This is however only temporary so please check back at a later date or call us on 01733 223229 for more information. Our brand new furniture is worth considering too!

5-Line Heavyweight Daisy Chain Striped Bass Trolling Spread
Daisy Chain Rigs, three 9oz
Tandem Rigs, two 4oz / 12oz
While this can be considered a beginner or small boat spread, it is also an ideal expansion package to what you already have. Most anglers start here when first getting into fishing for Striped Bass. I know many bay anglers today that swear that this is all they need. On a small spread like this, consistency and high production rigs like Tandem rigs, daisy chains and Umbrella rigs with Parachutes Jigs are important. Exact line length will change with type of boat and sea conditions. You will have to experiment to determine what works best. What is important is that when a line gets hit, you can put another one back out at the exact distance. This is where our Line Counter Bay Trolling reels come in handy. If you don't have a line counter reel, you will have to come up with a method like counting the number of times the bar on a level wind moves across the reel, or mark your line every 25 feet. No matter what method you choose, you will need a note pad to keep it all straight! We have divided our spread package into light, middle and heavy weight spreads. this will allow you to build a spread that targets the seasonal migration patterns of striped bass.

Before Delta took the economy out of comfort, we hopped aboard one of the airlines 717-200's from Atlanta to Newark. The seats may look a little different and are made to sound a little less coachy with their new name "Delta Comfort Plus", but your feet still face…well, a lot. Watch the review:

Advice From An Expert
There may only be two of you walking down the aisle in the end, but the number of people that will help you plan the perfect wedding is far greater. We sat down with Bridal Concierge and Boutique Owner Harmony Walton of The Bridal Bar L.A. to get her best advice when it comes to choosing the best team possible, including florists, caterers, and everyone in between.
Photography: Raymond Hom2 of 11
Take Recommendations Lightly
A friend's good word goes far, but there is no one caterer, band, or florist perfect for everyone. Compatibility is key: Do you have the same taste and temperament as the advice-giver? If not , proceed with caution. And never use all of the same vendors that a friend did—it can leave your wedding feeling like a repeat.
Arm yourself and your partner with notebooks, and spend a week recording anything you encounter that grabs you, whether it's a color on a sign, a song on the radio, or a dessert at a restaurant. Then compare notes. Does food dominate your list? Did he jot down only song titles? You'll see on paper what matters, so you can budget for the most important.
4 of 11
Create a Guest List That Reflects Real Life
When you're narrowing down the invites, think about your present (and future) relationships rather than the past. Is this someone you want in your life in 20 years? If so, invite that person. The others are negotiable.
5 of 11
Chat with Recent Clients
Once you've edited the list of potential vendors, ask to talk to a few of the couples they've worked with in the past year. It doesn't matter if a bride 10 years ago loved someone; their staff and resources have likely changed since then.
Swipe here for next slide
6 of 11
Note Your First Impressions
Be aware of how potential vendors deal with your initial contact: How do they react, how quickly do they respond, and how do they conduct themselves? If a band tells you to come to a wedding to check them out, it's a hint that they may invite strangers to your event, so make sure they understand that your day is for invitees only.
7 of 11
See Beyond Your Own Style
Look for a diverse portfolio when you're hiring any vendor. You want to see a body of work with a consistent level of quality—not a one-trick pony who can only do, say, boho. You might not like a Glee-centric birthday party, but if the work can still wow you, imagine what the vendor could do with a theme you love.
8 of 11
Know When Familiarity is a Good Fit
In some cases, a vendor having an existing relationship with a venue can be a big plus. They'll already know about any shortcomings—like if the space needs a generator or is challenging to load into—and how to work around them. Alternatively, if you're having doubts about your vendor, you can ask the venue manager about her experience with them. Questions about how they treat people behind the scenes and if they handle stress well can tell you a lot. With a photographer, though, the first time at a location can be charmed. Someone who's seeing a space with fresh eyes may bring more spontaneity than a lensman who's already shot the same backdrop for 10 other couples.
9 of 11
Hire People Who Accept Your Budget
Whether you're in for $9,000 or $9 million, find a team that will creatively rise to the occasion. The best will be able to suggest savvy budget-trimming swaps. So if you're asking for pricey peonies when they're out of season, a resourceful florist might suggest lush, fully opened garden roses instead.
10 of 11
Look For a Team Player
You want to collaborate with someone who will listen and create an event that isn't just beautiful but reflects you two as a couple. For instance, skip a barn wedding with cowboy boots if neither of you has ever ridden a horse. When your future children look at your wedding album and ask, "Why did you get that cake?" you'll be able to say, "Your dad and I used to go to this great restaurant and... ." The right vendor will create moments where your guests think, "This is so Jane and John!"

11 of 11
Don't Be Afraid to Walk Away
When you're not happy with a vendor, wait until you can articulate your concerns in a non-emotional way. Express the problem, and then ask for a solution. Depending on how they react, it may make sense to part ways. If you have a contract, you'll likely have to pay a fee, but it may be worth it to move on to someone who's a better fit.
