The original Stand-Up Desk Company has been in business since 1983. Over the years we have seen the competition come and go; some have imitated us and some have outright copied our design, but as with any copy, it's never as good as the original. When we started the company, we set out with the purpose of making the best stand-up desk we could; the process and product evolved over a long period of time, never abetted by stealing someone else's idea. We pride ourselves on this hard work and dedication to detail. Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, said "God is in the details", and this is where we set ourselves apart from the other guy.
We start by selecting the finest Appalachian hardwood, following the tradition of using hardwood dowel construction; our principal competitors screw their desks together. As an analogy, compare a kitchen cabinet from IKEA to a fine piece of cabinetry, Next we use hardware of the highest quality; hinges for our lids are solid brass recessed so as to make a smooth transition from our lift tops to the 8.5 inch flat area at the top of the desk. The primary difference between The Stand-Up Desk Company and our competition is the level of refinement of our furniture; each piece is meticulously hand sanded to soften the edge and create a memorable piece of furniture that is not only beautiful to look at, but also a joy to use.
Our desk is a bit more expensive, it is because we put more labor into each piece, creating a superior, longer lasting desk. As with most works of quality, the value of our desks will probably increase over time. The final, critical step, which gives the desk a museum quality, is the finish. We apply 5 coats of finish, painstakingly hand sanded between coats. Photos on the internet in no way do justice to displaying our products. Therefore we invite you to make an appointment to visit and see for yourself in our Arlington, Virginia showroom.

Commitment to Our Veterans
Senator Moore is committed to ensuring that Massachusetts does everything possible to care for the veterans who have sacrificed so much to defend our country. It is essential that the Commonwealth have the infrastructure in place to deliver the services these men and women need.
During the 2014 session, the Legislature passed a comprehensive veteran's services bill, known as the VALOR Act II. The legislation was an extension of the original VALOR Act, passed a year earlier, and improves services related to jobs, housing, education, and accessibility.
The new bill included new rules related to veteran's employment, as more veterans return to civilian life. One provision would require licensing boards to recognize the training received during their service, eliminating the need for redundant and costly re-training. It also takes steps to keep service members on track for their education, despite challenges posed by deployment.
With over thirty percent of veterans across the country unemployed, these steps not only fulfill our moral obligation to these veterans, they are also good economic policies. Service members are some of our most capable and well-trained citizens, and their inclusion in the work force can have tremendous benefits.
Senator Moore is a member of the Legislature's Veteran's Caucus, which brings together legislators to work on issues and legislation to benefit members of the armed services. Any veterans looking for state-level assistance are strongly encouraged to contact Senator Moore.

Sleep Hacks for Kids/
Making a commitment to healthy sleeping habits is one of the best things you can do for your children's overall health. Sleep has an enormous impact on their brain growth, cognitive functioning, weight, behavior, academic performance and more.
Yet many parents underestimate just how much sleep their kids need and how much quality sleep their kids are actually getting. I know I've been guilty of this. I've let my nine-year old son stay up too late, get up too early and tell me he's not tired when I know he really is.
For the record: Preschoolers (ages 3-5) should sleep 10-13 hours. School age children (6-13) should sleep 9-11 hours. (1) Everyday. Consistently. Not just on the weekends.The best time to help your children develop and lock down excellent sleep habits is when they are young and becoming more autonomous. Here are several simple steps you can take to help your kids improve their sleep and set the on the path to lifetime good habits.
Don't put televisions in your children's bedrooms. This may sound like a no-brainer, but the fact is that 45 percent of school-aged kids have television sets in their rooms (2) and recent studies show that both watching TV and sleeping in a room in which a TV is present reduces the average amount of daily sleep by more than 20 minutes. (3)
Wind down by lowering the lights. Shift into "get ready for bed" mode by dimming or turning down the lights. Even better, switch to Low-Blue Nightlights as part of an evening routine. These small lights come with amber LED bulbs and glow like candles. Just plug them into a wall outlet like old-school nightlights. The good news is they don't emit any of the blue wavelengths that are known to suppress melatonin, the hormone that encourages drowsiness and which usually reaches its highest levels in the body during the night. (4)
Take time for tea. Having a cup of herbal tea is a great way to help children change gears and slow down. Lavender, chamomile and valerian root are excellent options for kids. Consider boosting the tea with raw honey. It's a fantastic sleep aid and helps the liver do its job at night. (5) (And be sure to stay away from processed honey — it's often nothing more honey-flavored corn syrup.) Another option we recommend for adults, and one that kids might like as well, is adding a tablespoon of coconut oil to herbal tea as a way to provide fat to the brain for stable energy during sleep.
Read "real" books before bed. This goes for parents who are reading aloud to kids and kids who are reading to themselves. Staring into an iPad or Kindle before bed, or even exposure to the secondhand light coming off a device, disrupts a child's circadian rhythms and inhibits melatonin production. A recent study also showed that kids who read on devices before bed take longer to fall asleep and to reach a consistent REM state.6 Not good. So go for the paper books and help your kids get the REMS they need. Plus, there's something very soothing about actually turning pages.
Don't let your children sleep with their devices. Cell phones are not teddy bears. A recent study showed that kids who sleep near their small devices sleep 20 minutes less each night than children who never slept near a small screen.7 Also, cell phones emit EMFs, electric and magnetic fields, or invisible areas of energy, that generate radiation.8 EMFs can have an impact on the sympathetic nervous system, disturbing sleep. There is also the larger issue of EMFs as cancer-causing agents. So make sure phones are turned off and put in a drawer, outside of the bedroom. Even a device left on a desk with its light subtly flashing can impair quality of sleep. (9)
Close the curtains. The darker the room, the better the sleep. Most fabric stores carry light blocking material that can be easily pinned to existing curtains. If your kids are scared of the dark, again consider using Low-Blue Nightlights. They're also particularly good for kids who are light sleepers and who toss and turn. A recent study showed that people who woke up and saw this light continued producing melatonin.
Make sure your kids are getting enough magnesium. Most Americans are deficient in this important mineral, kids included. Among its many roles, magnesium helps regulate the nervous system, which has a big impact on sleep quality. Excellent sources of magnesium include dark and leafy greens (spinach, kale, etc.), pumpkin seeds, Brazil nuts, salmon, avocado and dark chocolate. If you are using a supplement, go with the "-ates" — malate, citrate, aspartate and others. For children between 4 and 6 years old allow 120 mg and 170 mg for children between 7 and 10 years of age. Be careful with the supplements because too much magnesium can cause diarrhea.
Set a good sleep example. The more you deal with your own sleep and make it priority, the better for your children. Your example will have an impact.
What tips are you using to help your children get quality sleep? We'd love to know what you find the most useful.

English Lads says: William Richards is a handsome straight lad, good looking with blond hair, he is tall, lean but muscular. He's a yoga teacher, and that immediately makes you want to see how flexible he really is.
His body shows the fact that he keeps himself fit. As he strips off his strong muscular upper body and thick thighs look amazing, and his lightly hairy legs and chest are very alluring.
He gets hard and wanks his big uncut cock. He shows off his bendiness, showing us his ass, then carries on playing with his big dick until he unloads a hot load of cum.

It is odd how certain topics bubble to the surface in the sea of noise on Facebook, at least within my own relatively small and somewhat skewed sample of associates. (Read: tons of musicians, teachers, artists, freethinkers, and some others).
Also, it is odd how much people care about these topics for a day or so. There is a lively, maybe heated exchange of comments, and then it fades. Back to cat pictures, polemic political rants, cute photos of your kids, some slightly blurry food pictures, then a new topic emerges. Repeat.
A recent example: tons of posts and reposts of articles about Anxiety in college students, and how it appears to be worse than ever. How they can't take criticism without breaking. Lots of hand wringing, pearl clutching, grandiose statements, mild arguments, gross generalizations, and "kids today" type statements are bandied about, and then it's the next day and nobody seems to be talking about it.
I for one do not want to give up on this topic. I have a unique perspective in that I teach private flute lessons, one on one, so my contact with my students is far more intense than a "typical" college professor. And, in the Arts, we are often dealing with the depths of someone's very being when we are dealing with what we do; so "intense" is an understatement at best.
Case in point: yesterday, I had a frank conversation with a student about a recent performance, and it resulted in an emotional, tear-filled reaction. The general flow of it was this:
ME: What do you think about your performance last night?
Student: I thought I did great, and there were some moments I really went for it musically and it felt pretty good, and I didn't miss that many notes, so it was OK.
ME: Yes, but…your intonation was terrible, you missed far more technical details than you realize, all of your releases were not good, you did not balance on your feet the way we have worked on, your tempos were way too fast, your dynamic range was, as we have discussed, not at all interesting as you simply cannot play loud all the time, (insert a few more points here) and overall, you kind of brutalized a great piece of music while reverting to a lot of really bad habits that we have spent a semester trying to undo. I expect a lot more from you, and we have a long way to go, so get ready to work even harder.
Student: wilts, tries to keep composure, cries
I know at this point many of you will stop reading and say "well, you are just an asshole" while some of you will cheer for me as some sort of Gordon Ramsey like soothsayer, but look, it's not an uncommon moment in the development of a student, in this case, a graduate student majoring in flute performance.
What does this have to do with anxiety? Well, a great deal of what I am reading about anxiety in teen and college students dwells on the idea that they simply cannot take the level of criticism it requires to really learn. Granted, there is more than a little truth to Branford Marsalis' viral youtube rant about how students today are more interested in saying they are doing something and being told they are great for doing it instead of really investing the time and really hard work to actually do it- but I wonder if dismissing ALL students like this overlooks an important point: there are more students than we realize who are not coddled, and yes, not so anxious they can't function without falling apart when the slightest bit of conflict or truth comes their way.
Maybe some of them are raised to be emotionally honest and not hide their feelings.
And maybe my student was used to getting away with a glib dismissal of their mistakes to cover as we all do, but when that was pushed aside and I pushed deeper, the reality of the situation was clear and they felt bad. Really bad. Tears, bad feelings, deep breath, time to pick it up and keep trying. And try harder.
That has nothing to do with Anxiety. I think a lot of what we label as "kids are so anxious" is simply kids being emotionally honest. Because they are raised that way.
And I for one think that is for the best.
I think back to moments in my own development, and I think of some of the ways my teachers/mentors talked to me. If I am honest, I can think of many occasions, some profound and life changing, some just every day, where people talked to me in far more brutal terms than those I use today. Hell, I once had a conductor call me a "fucking idiot" in a rehearsal. Oh, and he called me the exact same thing in conducting class a few weeks later, kicked me out of the class, and said I needed to go back to my dorm room and study the score one note at a time because I was "too stupid" to understand it.
I broke in private in those moments. But I never broke in front of the teachers. "My generation," using that term loosely, was not taught to be emotionally honest. Especially the males of the species. Previous generations had it even worse. Gone are the days of ruler-wielding piano teachers, tyrannical conductors (mostly gone) and the like, but everyone over 40, before you cast aspersions on your young students, think back to your training and your experience. Were you emotionally honest? If someone tore you the proverbial new one, did you react? Of course you grew from it, but what if you said what you really felt in the heat of that moment, got it out of your system, and did not dwell on it after that?
There are coddled students today for sure. But there are tough students today as well. Before you simply dismiss everyone half your age or younger as "anxious" or "soft," take a minute to look back on your own education and think about it.
You probably should have cried a lot back in those days, but you did not realize it was ok. Don't discount the strength of your students for doing so.

Super white quartzite countertops – The countertops need durable materials that not only suits your style but also how you use your kitchen. If you are looking for a countertop with the hardness and resistance of granite and the luxury vein of marble, quartzite is the material for your kitchen countertop. White marble and white quartzite may look similar, but they have different qualities and offer different advantages, especially when used as kitchen countertop material. The list of natural stones available in the market is numerous and very varied. In particular, quartzite is a natural stone of metamorphic origin formed mostly by quartz, a sandstone rock of extraordinary hardness.
When the quartz sandstone is exposed to changing temperature and pressure conditions, metamorphism occurs and becomes quartzite. At a constructive level, quartzite is usually used as an exterior and interior floor covering as well as exterior walls and facades. Although both white marble and super white quartzite countertops form by the application of extreme pressure for sediments, marble comes from limestone, while quartzite begins as sandstone. Despite the popularity of white marble as a countertop substance, white quartzite exhibits the practical advantages of extra hardness and less vulnerability to staining. Buyers can easily confuse white quartzite with white granite at first glance. A detailed examination, however, reveals a small degree of additional grain in the quartzite.
Engineered stone products made from real stone aggregates provide better stain and heat resistance. Engineered stone products, such as Cambria and Silestone, incorporate white or colored super white quartzite countertops, while AggloSimplex, MargheStone, and other products that use white or colored marble. Although marble stains and scratches more easily than quartzite, bakers tend to disregard this problem because of the supposed superiority of marble as a surface for the working mass. As a kitchen countertop, it can be obtained with different finishes such as polished, matt, satin or aged (which highlights its texture even more), favoring its high resistance to changes in temperature and intense activity in a kitchen.super white satin finish granite

September 24-30 is National Adult Education and Family Literacy Week! We are proud to be part of Missouri Adult Education.
Did you know there are 28 adult education programs in the state of Missouri with more than 250 class sites? The Missouri Adult Education programs serve adults 17 years of age and older, who are no longer enrolled in school or who are functioning below the high school completion level. Missouri ranked second in the nation for academic gains through adult education. The classes are provided FREE to students, and they do not have to pay for text books. The average cost per year to provide classes in Missouri is less than $700 per student and of those who take the high school equivalency test, 89% pass!
In Parkway and Rockwood there are more than 10,000 adults who have not completed their high school education. The Missouri Adult Education and Literacy program within the Parkway-Rockwood School Districts serve 1,600 students each year, and there is room for many more.
Helping adults complete their high school education improves our state's ability to compete in the global job market. Individuals without a high school education are more than twice as likely to be unemployed. For this reason, adult education programs around the state are incorporating technical training into their programs. They have partnered with community colleges and businesses to provide training for Certified Nursing Assistants, Child Development Associates, Certified Logistics Associates, forklift drivers, certified Microsoft Office Specialists and much more. Adults in these programs are being given an opportunity to enter a career pathway. After passing the high school equivalency and completing a training certificate, they can obtain better employment and pursue further education in healthcare, advanced manufacturing or a professional degree. Adult Education is also a smart investment because low-skilled adults are 3 times more likely to be in poverty; 4 times more likely to be in poor health; and 8 times more likely to be incarcerated. The facts are clear: more highly educated adults experience higher employment and home ownership rates, higher annual earnings, lower levels of incarceration, and decreased dependence on social support programs. Inmate participation in adult education reduces recidivism by 29 percent. According to the U.S. Department of Education, individuals who participate in Adult Education programs have higher future earnings as a result and their income premiums grow with more intensive participation. Finally, children whose parents are involved with them in family literacy activities score 10 points higher on standardized reading tests. Adult Education programs are the best available weapons against intergenerational low literacy and poverty.
Our Adult Education and Literacy program empowers individuals through education and lifelong learning in order to acquire knowledge to succeed in the dynamics of the changing society and the workplace. Find more information and a list of classes here and learn more about our how our programs help the community.

PETER WRIGHT won his fourth European Tour title by defeating Mervyn King 6-2 in the final of the HappyBet European Darts Open on Sunday night in Leverkusen.
The world number three showed his class to scoop the £25,000 title once again and extend his outstanding 2017 with a ninth tournament victory of the year.
Having already claimed three European Tour titles in Germany, he thrilled the capacity crowd at Leverkusen's Ostermann Arena with another sublime showing as he denied King his first German victory since 2014.
Having seen off Robbie Green 6-1 in Saturday's second round, Wright then dropped just three legs to kick off Sunday's challenge, before overcoming top ten rival Dave Chisnall for the loss of only one leg in the quarter-finals.
He then averaged almost 100 in his semi-final win over Mensur Suljovic, coming from 3-1 down to reel off five straight legs for a 6-3 triumph.
The final saw Wright come up against his former Pairs partner and East Anglian rival King, who had become the first unseeded player to reach a European Tour final for almost 18 months with his run in Leverkusen.
Wright began in superb fashion by taking out 136 to break throw immediately with a 12-darter, and the pair traded 177 scores in leg two before double nine saw King level.
Wright, though, broke for a second time with a 13-darter to lead 2-1 before winning the next three legs - with the aid of another 13-dart finish - to move to the brink of victory.
King landed a 180 in a 13-darter to cut the gap to 5-2, but Wright was in no mood to allow his rival any further hope of a comeback, taking out 101 in clinical fashion to seal victory with a 103 average and six doubles from nine attempts.
Wright's win sees him move into second place in the all-time list of European Tour wins with five - behind Michael van Gerwen's 17 - as he continued a memorable year.
"Mervyn had beaten everyone in the other half and I had to play my best in the final, and luckily enough I played my best game of the weekend," said Wright.
"The crowd got me hyped up and really focused and my adrenaline was crazy, and the 136 in the first leg was a great start.
"Mervyn has worked really hard to come back to where he is now and he's had loads of semi-finals and finals in the floor tournaments this year, and he's coming back."
Wright added: "I learned from my mistakes and transferred that into wins, and it's paying off. I want to win everything and it's a great way to set myself up for the World Series events coming up in Shanghai and Las Vegas."
King, who won a European Tour event in Germany almost three years ago, had battled through the UK Qualifier to secure his place in Leverkusen, before seeing off Kim Viljanen, Ian White and Devon Petersen to reach the last eight.
Having earlier seen Rob Cross knock out World Champion Van Gerwen, King then ended the Hastings thrower's chances with a 6-2 quarter-final win before overcoming Michael Smith 6-4 in the last four.
Although he was out-gunned by Wright in the final, King collected £10,000 in prize money for a strong weekend's work as he reached his fifth European Tour decider.
"I've done really well and I'm very proud of what I've done after having to qualify for this event," said King. "I've failed at the last hurdle but what a hurdle to fail at.
"I've known Peter for 20 years and he played some fantastic darts all day. I couldn't answer that tonight and he was a worthy winner."
Cross produced another performance to enhance his growing reputation with an outstanding 6-2 third round victory over Van Gerwen in Sunday's afternoon session.
World number one Van Gerwen was also bidding - like Wright - to win a fourth European Tour event of the year, but saw Cross land three ton-plus checkouts as the pair both averaged over 102 in a fine game.
Scotland's John Henderson and Welsh ace Gerwyn Price joined Cross and Chisnall in the quarter-finals, while Suljovic's bid to claim a second European Tour title was ended in the last four by Wright.
May's Gibraltar Darts Trophy winner Smith - last week's Austrian Darts Open finalist - saw off Daryl Gurney and Price on Sunday as he continued his strong form.
The day had begun with Suljovic handed a third round Bye after Joe Cullen withdrew to return to the UK after his father suffered a heart attack, while Alan Norris, James Richardson, Dimitri Van den Bergh joined Bunting, Gurney, Petersen and Van Gerwen in losing out at the last 16 stage.
The next PDC European Tour event will be the Dutch Darts Masters from September 1-3 at the MECC in Maastricht. For tickets, visit www.pdc-europe.tv.

Randy Moore | Revolution Church | McKinney, Texas
Pastor Randy dreamed of planting a brand new life-giving church with a simple goal- to maximize the chances of seeing lost people find and follow God.
The vision for Revolution Church came to Randy & Amy in January of 2012. Immediately surrendering to the call on their lives, they began to raise support as missionaries to start this brand new life-giving church. In April of 2012, after much research and desire to discover where God would have them to plant this church, they visited McKinney, Texas where God revealed to them His desire for His work to be in this area.
Their first goal was to begin to develop a launch team to help them launch Revolution Church. Through the efforts of the Dream Team, Revolution Church officially launched on April 6, 2014 with 208 people in attendance! God has really blessed the efforts of those who have been obedient to give of their time, talents, and treasure to follow Him with their lives!
Lynn Phipps | Burrell Chapel Baptist Church | Angelton, Texas
Pastor Lynn grew up on the North Side of Houston Texas. Pastor Lynn has previously served as associated minister the New Pleasant Grove Baptist Church, where Dr. Wiley L. Dunn, Sr. was his Pastor. He was also responsible for leading many study groups, youth ministries and men ministries within the church.
Having being commissioned by God to plant a new church, Pastor Lynn and family left New Pleasant Grove Baptist Church and began to served in two different locations on the North Side of Houston while attempting to establish a group of people to start a church, but the doors did not open as he expected. Not willing to give up on this mandate giving by the Lord, an opportunity presented itself in the Angleton, Texas (South Houston) area. A small group of believers at Burrell Chapel gave him an invitation to come and lead them into the future. After being convinced in my heart that this was the Lord's will, Lynn accepted the challenge and decided to move forward with a new organization that promises to be the ground work for a new-planted church in the South Houston area. Pastor Lynn and his wife Kia have been married for 10 years and are the proud parents of three children, Mikayla 16, Lyndon, 8 and Kiara 7.
Robby Pollard | Village Park Baptist Church | The Woodlands, TX
On January 5, 2014, after a year of prayer and planning, Berean Baptist Church, in Houston, TX commissioned and sent 35 members to plant a new gospel-centered church in the northwest area of Houston. This church was a part of the church's vision to "multiply through church planting."
Committed to the mission of "leading people to find and follow Jesus," Village Park Church officially launched on January 19, 2014 and has grown to a weekly Sunday attendance of 100 and 65 engaged in small groups throughout the community. Village Park is gospel-centered, mission-driven and deeply committed to discipleship.
Robby has been married to his wife, Leslie, for 15 years. They have 3 children, Luke (10), Noah (7) and Adam (4), and they are in the process of adopting a 3 year old daughter from China.
Elias Salazar | Texas
Jeff Williams | Portico Church | Humble, Texas
On October 27, 2013, Berean Baptist Church, in Houston, TX commissioned and sent 20 members to plant a new gospel-centered church in the northeast area of Houston. This church plant was a part of Berean's much larger vision to multiply the gospel through church planting. In obedience to this call from God, Berean sent people, resources, support and prayer to establish Portico Baptist Church in the city of Humble, TX. We are forever grateful for Berean and their support to Portico.
We are a church made up of imperfect people striving to authentically love God and love people by making God famous for ages to come. Our aim is to be a church of communities reaching communities with the love of God expressed through Jesus Christ. We then want to guide believers along their spiritual journey of growing closer to God and making Him famous!

The Michelton Scott team from Australia will be a top performer in this years Tour De France. Their GC hopes lay in 2014 tour De France best new rider Adam Yates. Adam has shown he can climb with the best and the leaders can't drop him. We saw him ride a respectable fourth in Amgen Tour of California. His ninth place finish at last year's Giro shows he can finish high in a grand tour.
In the sprints Michelton Scott will be relying on Caleb Evans who is making his Tour defut. Caleb has won stages in the Vuelta and Giro recently. He also shown he can sprint finish without a leadout train so he may win a stage this year that has a more chaotic ending.
Michetton Scott wears Giordana gear that is made in Italy. The dark blue with yellow accents is another sharp graphics design form Giordana.

Professor Jordan Armstrong, a biogenetic engineer, is at an impasse in her super food research. In order to move forward, she is adamant that her former professor, Noeul Scott, is the key. The problem is, Noeul vanished after a personal tragedy. Jordan stumbles upon a coded 'bucket list' that she hopes will reveal clues to where she's gone. With the help of her cryptologist sister, Jordan follows clues to several National Parks where hidden memorials to Noeul's deceased wife, contain the next set of coded ciphers. Jordan must decode each in order to reveal the next location. Along this expedition, she is guided by something, or someone, she can't see. Unexplained happenstances continue to direct her steps.

John Jago
John "Jack" Bernard Jago Trelawney, prominent California mineral collector, was born in Livorno, Italy on April 1, 1909, the son of Harriet Benfield and a Cornishman by the name of Trelawney (?). His parents soon divorced, and his mother took him to live in Palo Alto, California, where he distinguished himself in school and proved to be a child prodigy at the piano. In 1924 his mother sent him to a boarding school in Switzerland. Bilingual from the start in English and Italian, he eventually developed fluency in French, Spanish, German, Greek and Latin, not to mention a passable knowledge of Portuguese, Russian, Japanese, Chinese and a few African dialects.
Jack returned to California to attend college, and received his law degree from Stanford in 1933, then worked for the National Recovery Agency (NRA) in Washington, DC. During the war he worked for Military Intelligence, decoding and translating Japanese messages. After the end of hostilities he settled in San Francisco where he resumed his legal career. In the late 1960s he phased out his law practice and traveled the world extensively, finally settling back in Palo Alto, where he lived the last 29 years of his life. In 1972 he legally changed his name from John Bernard Jago to John Jago Trelawneywith no explanation regarding the source of the Trelawney name.
Jack's first mineral specimen was a gismondine given to him when he was six years old, but his main first exposure to mineral collecting came when, as a boy, he received a gift of a boxed mineral collection assembled by Palo Alto dealer Robert M. Wilke. Thereafter Jack became a regular at Wilke's shop, and also the trailer-shop of Chuckawalla Slim (Edward Vose). In later years, after revitalizing his interest in minerals in the 1940s, he immersed himself in the study of mineralogy, took mineralogy courses from Adolph Pabst at U.C. Berkeley, and even hired Brian Mason to tutor him in optical mineralogy.
In 1950, Jack enlisted George Burnham (who had only just started his mineral business in Monrovia) to join him on a trip to buy and collect minerals and visit mineral museums. They collected fluorite at St. Lawrence, Newfoundland and zeolites in Iceland. In Norway they visited Kongsberg, Evje and Kragero and in Sweden they stopped at Långban, then moved on to visit museums in Brussels, London, Cornwall and Paris. This was followed by more collecting at the Lengenbach quarry in Switzerland, a visit to the museums in Florence and Rome, and a stop in Greece before moving on to Egypt and Uganda. At this point George took a different route while Jack visited Madagascar and the Belgian Congo, finally meeting in Johannesburg, South Africa, for Christmas. From there, Jack headed home to California, while George continued on to South West Africa (now Namibia) and Brazil..
The new Långban species
was named in his honor in 1957, in recognition of research grants he had given to the Swedish Museum of Natural History for the study of Långban minerals.
In 1977 Jack agreed to transfer his collection of about 4,000 carefully chosen mineral specimens (considered to be one of the finest private collections of its time) to the Smithsonian Institution, and from that point forward he concentrated his collecting energies primarily on fine gemstones. In 1988 he donated his collection of 179 large, colored gems and one colorless diamond to the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, and a few years later he presented to the Smithsonian the last 400 specimens from his mineral collection.

Sarah and Matt chose to be married at The Renaissance Allentown and it could not have been more fitting! They loved the city feel and the balcony was the perfect location for their first look. Having the ceremony and reception within walking distance allowed us a little extra time to capture some images throughout the town! The Liberty Bell Church, rich with history, was a stunning place to get married and The Renaissance Allentown was the perfect reception space for this dance loving crowd.
On the weekend before Halloween, why not boogie down!?!
Pretzels are practically a must as a late night snack after spending time on the dance floor!
Taking a few minutes a sneak away from the reception is something I encourage because not only do you get to spend a little more time with your sweetie, I get to capture some night photographs of you!
Special thanks to the vendors who helped make Sarah and Matt's wedding day wonderful!

LoveLetters - Issue 5
Welcome to LoveLetters, a monthly roundup of upcoming events, inspiring ideas and products we love. Our goal is to produce an issue of our newsletter towards the end of each month that will provide an overview of what we've been up to at LovEd and what we're loving lately.
Our Ambassador Program is in full swing. The mission of the Program is to create a community of like-minded individuals who are invested in personal growth, passionate about doing love differently, and committed to being the best version of themselves. If you're interested in applying for next year's journey, you can follow this link to find out more.
We're working diligently on finalizing the launch for our Salon for Singles series, so stay tuned! It's going to be epic! So without further ado, here's our LoveLetters Issue 5.
Happy June!
Enjoy + Share
WITH a friend!
BE THE 5 Segment:
LovEd's Clarity Program teaches us how to be a level 5 on the Emotional Maturity (EM) Scale. Each month, we feature someone who has inspired us with their high level of EM, meaning they've chosen not to take things personally, respond reactively or approach the situation in a way that contributes to the problem.
This month, our segment is focusing on John Mayer. If you've followed celebrity media over the past few years, you've no doubt heard about the controversy surrounding John. He has been accused of speaking inappropriately, especially about some of his well-known ex-girlfriends, during various public interviews. But then things went quiet for awhile.
Recently, John was interviewed on the YouTube segment "Hot Ones" where guests eat wings doused in varying degrees of hot sauce while answering questions. John revealed a few important things that demonstrated his level of emotional maturity has grown. First, he admits to having quit drinking, and had previously revealed on twitter that he's been sober since October 2016 with the message that sobriety's been a "constant return on investment".
John also revealed that he recently purchased a ranch in Montana that he escapes to when he becomes too much of that person he dislikes. He's admitted that he cared far too much about his ego and thriving off the praise and attention he'd receive from fans, now choosing to focus on his craft instead. Clearly, John has developed some self-awareness over the past few years. He's been able to acknowledge the parts of himself he doesn't care for, while making significant strides in mitigating the issues. John, thanks for being the 5!

At my church we are headed into the third week of a six-week worship series on the Sermon on the Mount ... And we're not taking on the fluffy stuff everybody likes.
You know what I mean.
The Beatitudes. Salt and Light Stuff. Shining Lights. Asking, Seeking, Knocking.
No, we're going with the "You've heard it said ... But I say unto you ..." stuff. The hard stuff.
We're getting after Jesus' teachings, not thoughts - his teachings - on anger, adultery, divorce, vows, retaliation, loving enemies ... That being said, we tend to keep the fluffy stuff fluffy and often move past the seriousness of the whole thing.
What's struck me as I've dug into these scriptures in Matthew 5 (we're staying in chapter 5 for this series), is that I haven't heard a whole lot of sermons on these things. At least not on all of the things Jesus teaches in this VERY important text on Christian ethics. As in, if-you-love-Jesus-these-are-things-you-should-strive-to-do ethics.
While in the midst of my studies, my wife sent me the Richard Rohr Devotional she received on Sunday, and apparently Fr. Richard has been pondering the same thing:
He offers much more, but I'll leave it at that.

Prior to falling in love with the breakfast quinoa at Tiny's No. 5 in Houston on New Years day, I had only ever had a savory version of quinoa. When I returned home I started to crave the warm, nutty deliciousness that was that breakfast quinoa and needed something to take me back to that morning at Tiny's.
o obviously I googled 'breakfast quinoa' in order to find something comparable. I stumbled upon this recipe and decided to tweak it a smidge [aka I forgot to buy the coconut & the berries at the store weren't looking too hott].
This weekend I woke up with that quinoa in my mind. I pulled it together the best I knew how.
It was obviously different. And that's 100% okay.
I loved the simple art of trying something I've never made before and enjoying the process of it. I would totally make it again. But this time I'd remember the coconut & buy the berries.
But hey, isn't that part of the process? Always refining, always moving forward, and always seeking out delicious meals.

Virtual carbon tree illustrates carbon sequestration
This summer, the Think Corner of the University of Helsinki provides an excellent opportunity to play master of the elements. Visitors can adjust the availability of light, carbon dioxide and heat to a virtual tree. As a result, the carbon tree shows how different natural conditions affect the capture of carbon from the atmosphere.
Trees use solar energy to turn water and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen. About half of the annual photosynthetic production of a tree is used for new growth, while the other half is consumed in the tree's vital functions, where carbon dioxide is released back into the atmosphere through cellular respiration.
Carbon dioxide is also released when fallen leaves, branches and dead roots decompose in the ground, whereas tree trunks and roots function as long-term carbon storage media. All this makes trees effective carbon sinks.
In June and July, the Think Corner of the University of Helsinki will house an interactive carbon tree. Visitors can experiment with how changes in the amount of light, the temperature, and the atmospheric CO2 content affect the tree's carbon sequestration capacity. You can adjust the living conditions of the tree using, for example, your breath or the warmth of your hand to influence the sensors.
From Hyytiälä to the virtual world
The inspirational forebear of the carbon tree installation is a real tree growing in Juupajoki at the Hyytiälä Forestry Field Station. Its calculated carbon sequestration capacity has been monitored online for three years. Users have been able to select either the present conditions, sample conditions from different seasons or, as at the Think Corner, determine the conditions themselves.
– In many ways, the carbon tree installation at the Think Corner is an updated version of the first carbon tree. This is the first time that it has been made wholly independent and taken outside the net. This makes it easier to use at different events, states project leader Eija Juurola from the Department of Forest Sciences at the University of Helsinki.
Growing the new carbon tree offline has taken a little less than a year. Artist Terike Haapoja, who designed the concept for the carbon flow animation, is very satisfied with the virtual tree's new phase of life.
– The tree is much more dynamic than before. The carbon particles have been animated to make the tree appear three-dimensional and as if swaying in the wind. The installation also includes a soundscape reminiscent of the whisper of a forest that changes with the conditions.
In future, the new carbon tree installation and the upcoming related website will be used in teaching.

Le Parc may refer to:
Le Parc is an album by electronic artists Tangerine Dream, which was released in May, 1985. Each track on the album is inspired by a particular park from somewhere around the world. Le Parc marked Tangerine Dream's last studio release with Johannes Schmoelling; he left the band in October 1985. The title track "Le Parc" was used as the theme for the short-lived U.S television series Street Hawk. A video was produced for "Tiergarten". The track "Central Park" was used as the opening theme for the movie Diamond Ninja Force directed by Godfrey Ho.
Floral design is the art of using plant materials and flowers to create a pleasing and balanced composition. Evidence of refined floristry is found as far back as the culture of Ancient Egypt. Professionally designed floral designs, arrangements or artwork incorporate the elements of floral design: line, form, space, texture, and color, and the principles of floral design: balance, proportion, rhythm, contrast, harmony, and unity.
There are many styles of floral design. The Eastern, Western, Zebra and European styles have all influenced the commercial floral industry as it is today. Ikebana is a Japanese or eastern style of floral design and incorporates the three main line placements of heaven, man and earth. In contrast, the European style emphasizes color and variety of botanical materials not limited to just blooming flowers, in mass gatherings of multiple flowers. Western design historically is characterized by symmetrical, asymmetrical, horizontal, and vertical style of arrangements.

In the digital world, tech, tools and techniques change so rapidly, it can be hard to keep up. Which makes any attempt to predict the future somewhat futile. But, looking back in a year or so, perhaps we'll find we got it right. History has a way of repeating itself, and there are clues that point to what's next.
We'll likely see more remote teams, more AI. Less time taking orders, less tedium. More strategy and value delivery, a continued focus on healthy teams and relationships. And, most certainly, the emergence of some new technology and media. It's time, we're due.
So what does the future hold for our projects and products and, as importantly, our people who lead them? Short answer, we don't know. But we do know the people who are most qualified to speak to the question. We asked industry DPM pros and Digital PM Summit speakers to weigh in on the future of digital project management. Share your own thoughts with the world by adding a comment below.
Ready to get to it? Alright, don that radiation suit and climb into the Bureau DeLorean…
The Future of DPM: 3 Predictions
1. More Strategy & Specialization
"Digital PM will evolve to be the hub or 'General Contractor' for IoT and experience design projects and services. The skills and responsibilities of the role will continue to both expand and specialize. Digital PMs will need to be knowledgable to experts in hardware, firmware and AI tools. As organizations continue to learn how to leverage digital to create connected products and services, Digital PMs will be managing the space in between hardware/firmware teams, data science teams, product managers and end customers."
— Ian Cox, EVP of Services at Cantina
"As the PM role continues to evolve into a strategic, consultative and marketing position, rather than 'just keeping track of budgets and stuff,' we all have to keep our skills sharp and our minds open. This change is great for project management, but it requires all of us to rise to the challenge. I think what we have to remember to do is keep the job description, the actual job duties and the salary we command all in line. I think the actual duties are far outpacing the others."
— Patrice Embry, Digital Project Manager
"One of the biggest trends we're starting to see is the shift from focusing straight in on the build phase of a project, and now having a laser-focus on strategy. This means PMs have to adapt to how they are running projects. There are more unknowns during a research and strategy phase, and you can no longer put together that perfect plan. What you're delivering isn't always something tactical, and you have to pivot the conversation with teams and clients to validate you're all on the same page."
— Tera Simon, Delivery Director at PointSource
Project management can be a lonely, stressful gig. But it doesn't have to be. Connect with fellow DPMs at the Digital PM Summit.
2. Robots Rise, but Humans Prevail
"As more and more of the world becomes automated, DPMs remain important and relevant individuals who champion our human stakeholders to benefit our human audiences. It is our responsibility to remind our teams that we are not using tech for technology's sake; we are using technology to cater to the needs and desires of the people we care about. We employ ethics, research and careful thought in our work. I believe that in the future of DPM, the importance our role as champion of humans will only become more and more critical."
— Lina Calin, Project Manager at Sparkbox
"I expect and hope that voice user interfaces and artificial intelligence can take over all the tedious, repeat tasks that need doing. Imagine if updating a project plan was done by asking Alexa, 'Update this project plan to accommodate for these vacations, that extra half-day meeting and make sure we have some time to decompress between workshops.'"
— Shahina Patel, Project Manager at Sigma
"The future of teams, building products digital or otherwise, is rooted in creating human connections in moments that matter. Pretty sure that is the optimist in me, but we have an incredible opportunity to use our work for positive outcomes."

3. The End of Agile (as We Know It)
"There's been a focus on Agile and Agile styles of delivery over the last few years, leading to a slight snobbery around projects that aren't run this way. I think there needs to be less of an obsession on fitting to an exact process, and more thought given to creating our own processes that work for specific organizational and project needs, using a blend of different frameworks and styles."
— Suzanna Haworth, Digital Project Director
"I still believe that for Agile practices to take root in the DPM space, we need to see a new form of Agile emerge that is established to cope with all the constraints of agency-focused work."
— Dave Prior, Agile expert, certified Scrum trainer, author, podcaster
"The future of digital project management is how we go beyond paper pushing and note-taking...to implementing and evolving process in a way that optimizes the opportunity for collaboration between client and vendor. A DPM can try to adhere to the box that is traditional project management...but there is so much more to it than that. A DPM is working in the digital space, an industry that's constantly evolving faster than any traditional project management textbook series could try and publish alongside. How insane (and awesome)!"
— Kelly Suter, Technical Project Manager at BI WORLDWIDE
The Future Is What We Make of It
The future of the industry—and digital project management as a profession—is ours to mold. There's a strong desire in the DPM community to elevate DPMs' status, and better communicate the benefits a strong DPM brings to both digital agencies and in-house teams.
"Our exact future is unclear because our role in digital is so new; that's what's so exciting! This community has an opportunity to define who we are and how we will impact the digital space long-term. I personally hope to see the role become something that has less boundaries."
— Lynn Winter, Project Management Consultant & Founder of Manage Digital
"I would like to see digital project management have the same resources, role models and profile as the other disciplines we work with, such as development/coding and UX. As DPM matures, I think we'll see (more) standardization of tools, practices and job roles…
When I first became a PM, I often raised when I needed support for my team or project and that worked some of the time. It was only when I started a new job and had a really incredible PM as my manager that she told me, 'The way to get anything done in this place is to talk money.'
This piece of advice was gold. The more I spoke to senior managers in a way they were interested in, cared about and related to the company's performance, the better my outcomes. Being able to speak confidently and competently about money and finances can really set you apart as an outstanding PM. I've also found it offers one of the quickest routes to promotion and salary increases."
— Peta Kennett-Wilson, Founder of Digital Rev

Should I pump or pour my soup, sauce or ready meal?
Should I pump or pour my soup, sauce or ready meal? As part of our APRIL robotic chef development we'll be investigating the quality, efficiency and practical benefits of pouring liquid products over pumping. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7ynhMxQxDM&feature=youtu.be
A potential benefit of pouring product is the better replication of how we cook soups, sauces and ready meals in kitchens. Prior to serving up a delicious chunky vegetable soup, you wouldn't expect Delia Smith to pump the soup through five meters of pipe. And whilst pump technology has been developed over the years to minimise damage, for a high particulate soup, it's logical that pouring could offer quality enhancements.

On the assumption that it is so, you are to decide on the Electronic Data Rooms virtual data rooms for mergers and acquisitions which can convert the information to manifold document formats. Eventually, you have to take note of the different languages recognition and machine translator. Finally, the Online Deal Room should be compatible with the variety of devices, such as computers, iPads, digital phones and so on and so forth. It will be great if it deals both with IOS and Windows.
- It is understood that every Due Diligence room has the customer service in our modern world. It stands to reason that not all of them are 24/7 and you know that it is better to decide on the Electronic Data Rooms with the overnight technical assistance. But the issue is that not every customer support is effective. Then and there, we advise you to test them. You can tell them that you happen on some issues, we offer you to pretend that you do not grasp anything and to annoy them.

- In cases when you give preference to the Electronic Data Room, you should better wonder where your files will be stored. It is preferable to choose the Digital Data Rooms which keep the materials on various file servers. Also, when you need the Virtual Data Room for such serious fields as the financial field or the chamber practice, when you would like to settle the Mergers&Acquisitions with its aid etceteras, it is desired to be very exacting to the safety of the Digital Data Room. Among the most decisive safety steps, you should find the several factor authentication, the secure hosting, IP restriction and so forth. It will be better if your Secure Online Data Room makes use of the sophisticated VPP.

In the very beginning, it is preferable to glance over the functions of the Up-to-date Deal Rooms in general and after it to start looking for your very virtual data room providers.

Ways to Be a Good Parent (Part 1)
Being a parent is one of the most fulfilling experiences a person can have. The most important thing a parent can give their child, however, is a sense of being loved. Just keep in mind that you don't have to be infallible to be a "perfect" parent.
Build Positive Children
1. Expressing Your Love and Affection
- A gentle cuddle, a little encouragement, appreciation, approval or even a smile can go a long way to boost the confidence and well-being of your children. Sadly, many children seek this kind of acceptance from their peers.
- Tell them you love them every day.
- Give lots of hugs and some kisses.
- Love them unconditionally; don't force them to be who you think they should be in order to earn your love. Let them know that you will always love them no matter what.
2. Praising Your Children
- Avoid comparing your children to others, especially siblings. Each child is individual and unique. Celebrate their differences and instill in each child the desire to pursue their interests and dreams. Failure to do so may give your child an inferiority complex, an idea that they can never be good enough in your eyes.
- Teach your children that it is okay for them to be different, and they do not have to follow the crowd. Teach them right from wrong when they are young, and they will (more often than not) be able to make their own decisions, instead of listening to/following others.
- Remember that your child is not an extension of yourself. Your child is an individual under your care, not a chance for you to relive your life through them.
3. Avoiding Criticism
- Stop being judgmental and judging your child's friends they choose to talk to.
- When your child acts out in a harmful and spiteful manner, tell him or her that such behavior is unacceptable and suggest alternatives. Avoid statements such as: "You're bad." "Go away!", etc. (as difficult as it may be to remain positive).
- Be assertive yet kind when pointing out what they have done wrong. Be stern/serious, but not cross or mean, when you tell them what you expect.
- Avoid public humiliation. If they misbehave in public, take them aside, and scold them privately.
- Reasonably model the behavior and character you hope your children will adopt and continue to live by the rules that you set. Show them by example in addition to verbal explanations. Children have a tendency to become what they see and hear unless they make a conscious and concerted effort to break the mold.
- A child may have an opposite disposition, ie: introverted when you are extroverted, for instance; and not be able to fit into the pattern and style that you choose, but will make ones own decisions.
4. Be Consistent
- Enforce the same rules all the time, and resist your child's attempts to manipulate you into making exceptions.
- Control your temper.
- Communicate clearly. Children should be very familiar with the consequences of their actions. If you give them a punishment, be sure they understand the reason and the fault, if you cannot articulate the reason and how they are at fault the punishment will not have the discouraging effects you desire.
- Life is a great teacher. Don't be too quick to rescue your child from the results of their own actions if the consequences are not overly severe. Example: Cutting themselves may hurt, but it's better than leaving them unaware of why sharp objects should be avoided.
5. Listen to Them
- Express interest in your children and involve yourself in his and her life.
- Create an atmosphere in which they can come to you with a problem however large or small.
6. Be A Role Model
Young kids are like sponges, they notice everything. As parents we are our children's first role model. Pay attention to what you say or do around them and think about what kind of example you are making.
- Want to teach kids about charity? Get involved and take your kids with you to a soup kitchen or homeless shelter and help serve up meals. Explain to them why you do acts of charity so they understand why they should.
- Teach kids about chores by setting a schedule and having them help you out. Don't tell your child to do something, but ask for their help. The earlier they learn to help you, the longer they will be willing to.
- Want your kids to listen to you? Show them you can listen to them.
- If you want your son or daughter to learn to share, set a good example and share your things with them.
Give Up Your Vices
Gambling, alcohol and drugs can jeopardize your child's financial security. Smoking, for example, almost always introduces health hazards to your child's environment. Second-hand smoke has been linked to several respiratory ailments in children. It could also contribute to the early death of a parent. Alcohol and drugs might also introduce health hazards or violence to your child's environment.

Be Fearless
You will never, ever please everyone. The decisions you make will always have one critic. I learned that lesson many times and yet for a long time I still wanted everyone to "approve" of what I was doing, of who I am. Today I let go of the need for others approval, and approve and love myself!
"Be fearless when it comes to life, and careless when it comes to what people say and think about you".
