A Great job you did here!
Amazing and I love it. Nice job.
I don't drop many responses, but after browsing through a few of the comments on "Slam Dunk Anime Rivalry". I actually do have some questions for you if it's okay.
Could it be only me or do a few of these comments

Hopefully this is the first in a long-running series where I write about novels that have shaped my reading habits and helped me to love reading as much as I do. I've not been reading as much recently as I should've, but I want to write about books, so here we go!
I wasn't a particularly popular kid during secondary school – I used to spend a lot of time in the library, because books are awesome. I used to 'work' at the library – sorting out books to go back onto the shelves, and checking books out for the younger students. I enjoyed it, although it did let me get away with the worst thing I've ever done at school – keeping a book that belonged to the library!
I had borrowed Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code from school, despite having only read the second book – The Arctic Incident. I read, and re-read the book over, and over, before being reminded that it was due in at the library. That's all well and good, but I had lost the dust cover! (Sidenote: I hate dust covers). I didn't want to get fired from my job as a librarian, and I didn't want to pay for a replacement book, so I changed the due date on the computer and said I'd already handed it back. I am the worst human, I know!
Anyway, ever since then, The Eternity Code has been one of my favourite books. I've probably read it over one hundred times. It also helps that the Artemis Fowl series is one of my favourite series. The Eternity Code is probably the first time the Artemis Fowl books get serious. For those of you who don't know, the books are about a boy genius criminal, the eponymous Artemis Fowl, and his adventures with the 'fairy' world that exists under the earth's ground. (As a side note, I reviewed the last book here). The first two books are somewhat enjoyable fantasy yarns about Artemis and his adventures, but Eternity Code opens with Artemis' bodyguard, Butler, being shot. By a real gun. It carries on in a similar vein, and ultimately ends with Artemis Fowl losing his memory.
The reason why it's one of the books I use from my childhood is because it's one that I know inside out. I used to read it at night time when I would struggle to sleep, and it would help me to relax. I still cycle through the first four Artemis Fowl books to help me sleep – they are stories that I enjoy and they are stories that are still, in my opinion, well-written. If you haven't ever read them – child or adult, I would still highly recommend them.
I like any book which can drag me in with a compelling story, as well as one with likeable characters – from Artemis himself, to the flatulent dwarf Mulch Diggums, to the angry LEP Commander, Julius Root, and the villains of Opal Koboi and Jon Spiro. They're all interesting, and my quibbles with the series don't really start until books five onwards, hence why I only re-read the first four! It was a toss up between choosing The Arctic Incident or The Eternity Code as the one for this list, but I ultimately went for The Eternity Code due to the way the story goes. It's more serious and therefore more suited to all kinds of readers, rather than just children.

I am supposed to be doing more productive things but tonight I am so tired. So I'm just going to do some blogging and then maybe have a bath or something. I wish I was back in London because there is so much stuff happening! Obama is here! JK Rowling is also in London and I'm jealous because some lucky lucky people are going to see her reading at the Royal Opera House. Highly unfair. However, isn't she looking lovely? Come on Jo, I'm not going to be in Edinburgh much longer! Hurry up and accidentally bump into me in a cafe whilst I coincidentally have a Harry Potter book in my bag.
Also in London at the moment is this amazing steampunky Victorian invention known as a Telectroscope, by Tower Bridge. I think it works using fibre optics, but the magic of this thing allows you to see America! Its so gothic and so magical. I hope it's still there when I get back.
Other extraordinary things that blow my mind with their greatness:
The Where the wild things are trailer makes me think October is too far away. Glorious! If I had written that book I'd be fulfilled.
This confuses and confounds me. My stubborn nature makes me refuse to give up on this but it's practically impossible. In fact I don't believe I've got past the first two pages.
Squink. My most wanted book OF THE YEAR. Dave McKean is terrifying, thrilling and inspiring. Seriously I'm telling you about this but please don't go and buy it or I might cry because they are limited edition and if there aren't going to be any left by the time I have money I'll be forced to buy it for just about a million pounds on the internet. I mean, unless you are buying it for me, in which case, go ahead.
Anyway, see ya later chipsticks. I gotta head to bed.

Dealing with Failure
"If at first you don't succeed, try, try again"
This great quote can be traced back to Thomas H. Palmer an American educator and English novelist Frederick Maryat. Palmer is credited with the quote in 1840 and Maryat in his novel published in 1847.
The original phrase is "Tis a lesson you should heed, try, try again. If at first you don't succeed, try, try again."
If you know the popular version or the original version, have you ever noticed that the ration to failing to trying is a 2:1 ratio? Try twice – fail once.
I don't know about you, but I would love to have just a 2:1 try to fail ratio. Think about how much less stress or time would be wasted if we could go through the process of setting a goal, executing and then failing or if this is the second try, succeeding. We could no doubt accomplish so much more with our lives.
There are a couple of downsides to only needing to try and try again before succeeding. The first that jumps to mind is that so many more people would achieve success in difficult endeavors that people who are truly excellent in their fields would be reduced to slightly above average status. Another down side to just try and try again is that we would loose those the stories and inspirational examples of people who have endured multiple failures and then broke free to levels of success that others did not feel were possible.
It took Thomas Edison well over a thousand experiments that didn't work (failures) before he discovered how to create a light build that worked. When a young journalist asked Edison about all of his failures and why Edison kept trying to make the light bulb when gaslights already existed, Edison replied, "…don't you realize that I did not fail but successfully discovered over a thousand ways that won't work!"
Edison's determination to discover (or fail) over a thousand times is why the world knows of Edison and not the name of the man who only found 100 or 500 ways the light bulb wouldn't work.
As it is getting close to springtime and another season of baseball, let's take a look at one of the measures of success in that sport, the batting average. The batting average is essentially a measure of how successful a batter is at getting a base hit.
Ty Cobb holds the distinction of having the highest career batting average in baseball. Cobb's lifetime batting average is .366. What the .366 average means is that in his entire professional career, he failed about 63% of the time to get a base hit.
The last part of failing at an activity is the learning of what you are not particularly skilled at of have an aptitude for. Michael Jordan left basketball after winning three championships with the Chicago Bulls to go play professional baseball. After one season of batting .202 (failing almost 80% of the time) he realized that his skills and abilities lay with playing professional basketball and not baseball.
Jordan returned to basketball the next season and went on to win another three championships in basketball. Do you think that because Jordan failed at baseball that made him a failure in life? Do you think that maybe he wanted to attempt something that he was interested in and learn if he could apply the same intangible skills such as intensity and hard work to baseball?
As the example of Michael Jordan points out, failing does not always mean that you should continue to repeat what it is that you are doing or keep sinking resources towards an activity or business that you just are not cut out for.
Failing should be taken as a lesson in either how to improve what you are doing or learning that your goal may not be a fit for you. Here are a few steps that I have my clients following while working through the failure process:
- Embrace or own the failure, yep you failed take ownership and don't blame others or circumstances
- If you need to, go ahead and feel bad about the experience, but don't stay in a negative emotional state for long. Winners move on from failures.
- Do some soul-searching to identify both the points of failure and the points of success
- Ask yourself if this path or activity is truly for you or have your realized that you are not a fit for what you are trying to accomplish
- Develop a plan to try again using the lessons learned (adjust the experiment, adjust your batting stance, adjust your business model, etc)
The next time that you find yourself failing, don't be afraid or ashamed. Realize that the only people who don't fail are people who don't try. Every failure is a chance to learn and grow either personally or professionally.
Oh and remember, "Tis a lesson you should heed, try, try again. If at first you don't succeed, try, try again."

From time memorial, two objects have always been targets of ridicule-body trade and the press.Invariably,both have also been an industry of profit-from the days of the Kamasutra to that of Priya Anjali Rai.The times of Kandukari Veersalingam Pantulu presented the contours of controversy which even today never escapes the world of digitalization.Pantulu, the Vidyasagar of the South raised the questions of dowry and casteist evils when the Hindu Reigion was as much repressive as the Church of the Vatican.
In the contemporary era of 19th Century Bengal, Raja Rammohan Roy pubished two newspapers-Mirat ul Akhbar(Persian) and Sambad Koumudi.Bharatpathik Rammohan wrote articles denouncing the self immolation of widows.He had to face resistence of a regressive society.But that never deterred him from taking on the Lords when the Press Act of 1823 was passed by the alien rule.
Sripad Amrita Dange published the communist mouthpiece called the Socialist in Maharashtra.The Madras Communist Singaravelue Chettiyar edited Labour Kisan Gazette.The Kesari was published at the behest of the extremist patriot Bal Gangadhar Tilak.
The press then was neither rowdy nor timid.Well neither were they starmakers or presstitutes.But surely they were influential.The generation gap has been considerable,with the Indian media walking through the lines of transformation from the age of Ramnath Goenka to that of CNN. Rough anchors and primetime shows dominate today's media.In the era of the Newshour the buck seems to stop with the News Today At 9.
The rise of journalists from news readers to that of adjudicators is not demotion but the motion in the society suffering from patience paralysis.Consider the use of hashtags solely championed by Times Now.The NDTV hashtag #Q4Prannoy or that of #askRajdeep falls far behind than that of Arnab's #ihaveaquestion.Incidentally the channel which gives widest mileage to its Super Primetime Anchor itself doesn't mention his name on its hashtag!
Well but the role of the political media has been that of challenging the corridors of power in modern times. The coal scam,2g,jijaji have all come to light thanks to the endeavours of a vigilant press.But it is a bit misleading why most handles of the leading newspapers and channels in social media carry semi-erotica for sexmongers like me? Even Deepika's cleavage becomes an object of speculation.
The Nira Radia tapes are pointed at by semi literate gyanis to show corruption within the universally Mudrochised media. But what they fail to decipher is the role of Vinod Mehta and Manu Joseph,from Outlook and Open Magazine respectively. Vinod had to resign from the post of Editor-in-Chief following the revealation.Similarly the critical role of Times Now behind A Raja,Pawan Bansal, Ashwini Kumar,Subodh Kant Sahay epitomised the birth of fearless journalism.Arnab,no doubt deserves kudos for that.
Well politicians have always considered the media as a slut,whom they can use and abuse at their own liking.But media is actually a condom whom many a times you need to buy to prevent unwanted pregnancy.Thats the reason why sting operations on Babri Masjid demolition come out on the eve of 2013 Delhi state elections.
Again there is the institution of affirmative media which asserts the belief of a whistleblower.Even if that demands the excavation of Nehru's drain of records,the media will be ready to the build the burial.
That is the real image of Indian media-that of bias to unbias. Well there will be times when you will feel excruciating pain while having sex(perhaps because of oversized crotch) but the feeling of carnal pleasure will still play the dominant factor.
Is media a maid?-yah maid of the public
Is media self made?-of course.If that was not the case Darwin's Survival of the Fittest would have eliminated her.

|Applying life cycle management of colombian cocoa production

|Food Science and Technology

The present research aims to evaluate the usefulness of the application of Life Cycle Management in the agricultural sector focusing on the environmental and socio-economic aspects of decision making in the Colombian cocoa production. Such appraisal is based on the application of two methodological tools: Life Cycle Assessment, which considers environmental impacts throughout the life cycle of the cocoa production system, and Taguchi Loss Function, which measures the economic impact of a process' deviation from production targets. Results show that appropriate improvements in farming practices and supply consumption can enhance decision-making in the agricultural cocoa sector towards sustainability. In terms of agricultural business purposes, such qualitative shift allows not only meeting consumer demands for environmentally friendly products, but also increasing the productivity and competitiveness of cocoa production, all of which has helped life cycle management gain global acceptance. Since farmers have an important role in improving social and economic indicators at the national level, more attention should be paid to the upgrading of their cropping practices. Finally, one fundamental aspect of national cocoa production is the institutional and governmental support available for farmers in the face of socio-economic or technological needs.

"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times," begins the famous novel by Charles Dickens.
So it is for Little Rock as another mayoral race gets underway. The city's population and economy are growing, tourism is increasing and the cultural life is improving. But that growth is putting pressure on infrastructure, jail space can't keep up with the crime rate and neighborhood leaders disagree about where to direct limited funds.
Perhaps the strongest division is between downtown and West Little Rock, where policy perspectives are shaped by lifestyle choices. To downtown loyalists who live east of University Avenue, West Little Rock is an abomination of sprawl. On the other hand, residents of West Little Rock think downtown is inconvenient, dirty and unsafe.
Both are right, to a degree. But both take advantage of the other's amenities, whether it is the plentiful shopping in West Little Rock or the dining and entertainment options in downtown.
In that way, it is a productive and dynamic competition, and the success of each area doesn't have to be mutually exclusive. Still, with all things being equal, West Little Rock's growth is more expensive and burdensome.
That's because a majority of the development is new, so the city has to pave streets, expand the public safety network and extend sewer lines and other utilities. And that stretches the available resources even thinner.
Many other municipalities deal with this problem by imposing impact fees, which are simply charges assessed to developers to compensate for the public infrastructure servicing their new properties. Even Bentonville — home to Wal-Mart and bastion of free-market thinking — already requires impact fees for commercial development, and other conservative cities like Rogers and Cabot are seriously considering adopting them. In fact, a heated debate ensued at a public hearing in Cabot this week as the city council prepared to take up the subject at its Aug. 21 meeting.
As those discussions are occurring elsewhere, Little Rock seems to be alone in avoiding a serious discussion of impact fees, even though it is feeling the effects of rapid growth. Tony Bozynski, the city's director of planning and development, said he doesn't know why impact fees have not at least been formally contemplated.
"Several years ago there was a study done along the Kanis Road corridor, and at that time there was some discussion about other ways of funding street improvements," he said. "I don't think impact fees were mentioned. … I can't point to any specific reason why it's not got to the point where someone does a study of street development fees."
An obvious reason is that city officials are hesitant to challenge developers. But if they lack the political will to recover the costs of unrestrained growth, they should support programs that encourage in-fill development as an alternative to sprawl.
After all, redeveloping vacant downtown buildings and lots would provide numerous benefits to the city. We have already witnessed the disproportional advantages of recovering merely a few blocks of real estate in the River Market. Since that is the part of town most visitors see, the public relations and economic gains are exponential.
Better yet, the city doesn't have to spend money to accommodate the new developments, because all of the services are already in place.
The only problem is that it typically costs more to renovate existing properties than to build on undeveloped land.
"Redevelopment projects can be an expensive undertaking," said Ryan Lasiter, a broker with Doyle Rogers Company, which has several historic buildings on Main Street that have been sitting vacant for years. Lasiter previously lived in Memphis, which adopted a series of incentives for developing downtown properties that include tax freezes, tax-exempt bonds and access to working capital.
"Incentive programs, such as the ones offered in Memphis, have continuously induced and encouraged projects that otherwise may not be economically feasible," Lasiter noted.
With that in mind, the Memphis model would be a good one to follow if Little Rock's leadership could be convinced that widespread downtown development is in the city's interest.
Sharon Priest, executive director of the Downtown Partnership, said she has convened two task forces to move forward on that front. "There is nothing we currently have on our wish list, but there will be."
She added that the Downtown Partnership does not have an official position on impact fees, which is unfortunate, because it would have the most to gain from them. Plus advocating for the fees would work well as a political bargaining chip that could be relinquished in exchange for a package of city incentives for downtown development.
For in the end, if we're not going to make developers pay for their impact, we might as well encourage a preferable kind.

Cosmetic Plastic Surgery
Cosmetic plastic surgery is performed to enhance body structures. Tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) is used to remove excess skin and fat in the abdominal area. During a tummy tuck loose abdominal muscles are tightened to further flatten the abdomen. Liposuction is frequently combined with tummy tuck procedures to remove fat excess from the flanks, thighs, arms, or back. Dr. Grigoryants places the tummy tuck incision in such a fashion so that the scar can be easily hidden by underwear. Patients who do not have skin excess but primarily fat excess can be effectively treated by liposuction alone. Dr. Grigoryants uses liposuction or liposculture to improve the contour of various body parts.

Private sector nursing and residential care facilities had a 7.3% incidence rate for nonfatal workplace illnesses and injuries in 2013, according to the report released in December. This marked the highest rate among industries with 100,000 or more cases.
Musculoskeletal injuries caused by lifting and transferring residents are a major hazard in long-term care. Despite initiatives to reduce these incidents, the rate of nonfatal occupational injuries was basically unchanged for nursing facilities between 2012 and 2013.
For private industry nursing homes, the 2013 rate was 7.0%. For state and local government facilities, the rate was 13.2%. This was the only double-digit incidence rate across all public and private sector industries.
For the U.S. workforce as a whole, the illness and injury incidence rate ticked down from 3.4 cases per 100 full-time workers to 3.3 cases.

Like we never have enough white shirts in the closet. I never have enough white cardigans. The basics of my wardrobe is light colors, I use the little black (most of the time to combine with another color) so I need a jacket in bright colors for when the weather cools.
The dress is here.
When I go to fabric shop and find white jersey fabric, I´m very happy!
And I ended up covering all with a small elastic bias, with the intention that the crochet lace stay on the side on the fabric and not forward.
Long time I was trying to decide whether to put some kind of closure, buttons and buttonholes were discarded because the socket does not. At the end I thought the original way to close the cardigan is using one of the sweater guard clips that I bought recently on Etsy.
Today is Halloween in North America. Here, in Spain , we celebrate this holiday otherwise different..
The morning is reserved to bring flowers and visit the graves of loved ones and it´s tradition to eat roasted chestnuts and roasted corn on the cob (which is annunciation of cooler weather). You can find these delicacies stalls throughout the island.

Restaurant Small Business Loans
Restaurants contributed close to $800 billion dollars to the US economy is 2016 and employed about 14 million people the previous year. Independently-owned restaurants represent a portion of these staggering statistics. To get an idea, food and beverage sales in 2015 for the country's top 100 independently -owned restaurants totaled about $1.8 billion.
That's welcomed news to privately-owned restaurants but it's also daunting. How do you compete in what's considered to be the most volatile industry in the US? Hard work and dedication are important but as you well know, they're not enough. One of the key indicators of success is access to working capital.
Greenbox Capital is here to help. As an alternative lender with goal of strengthening small businesses throughout the US, Puerto Rico and Canada, we offer financing that many small business owners didn't know they could get.
Turn Future Sales Into Cash Now
Did you know that as a restaurant that processes credit cards, you may be eligible for a Greenbox Capital quick cash advance based on your future credit card receipts? Called a Merchant Cash Advance (MCA)¹ or credit card receivable funding, this type of business financing is one of the fastest and easiest ways to get working capital for your restaurant. Payback is daily or weekly and fully automated.
Repayment options for Merchant Cash Advances include Automated Clearing House (ACH) payments or split funding through your credit card processor or lockbox. ACH payments are fixed amounts that are deducted daily or weekly from your business bank account and are ideal for the business owner who feels secure knowing the amount of the payment in advance. Another method is split funding, which syncs the payment amount with your credit card receipts.
Affordable, Flexible Repayment
If your restaurant in located in a tourist area and experiences seasonal ups and downs or you simply prefer a payment schedule closely aligned with sales, split funding is a good choice. A split funding payment schedule is based on a fixed percentage of credit card receipts. The credit card receipts will vary according to sales, but the percentage of the receipts due as payback is agreed upon in advance.
Another option may be a small business loan² paid back via set payment amounts automatically collected daily or weekly from your bank account through Automated Clearing House (ACH). Term lengths range from 3 months to 12 months.
Whether you're eligible for a Merchant Cash Advance or small business loan, Greenbox Capital funding advisors work with you to ensure that the financing is affordable. Most restaurant owners say they don't even "feel" the payments for both short-term small business loans and Merchant Cash Advances. Both funding options fit so seamlessly into their everyday business operations.
Generally, business owners averaging a minimum of $7,500 revenue over the past three months can qualify for a merchant cash advance or small business loan equal to 70% or 100% of their monthly revenue. We offer credit card receivable funding and short-term small business loans to new businesses in operation at least 6 months. We require 3 months of bank statements, and a low credit score will not result in an automatic rejection.
Working Capital Puts Business Goals Within Reach
How could your restaurant benefit from working capital small business financing from Greenbox Capital? First, an infusion of cash can enable you to establish priorities. As the business owner you are the person responsible for making key decisions on company direction such as whether to buy into a franchise, open another location or remodel. But if you're like other small business owners, you're pulled in multiple directions from negotiating with suppliers, hiring, and overseeing overall operations. Meanwhile, the struggle to keep cash flow liquid is a central fact of life for the majority of small businesses.
Getting to the next level, requires working capital. And it's tough or nearly impossible to get from banks, credit unions and other traditional lenders. Banks reject small businesses either due to the requested amount, credit history or the type of businesses.
Greenbox Capital is refreshingly different. We're on the side of small business. We don't base approval solely on credit score, collateral is not a requirement and we don't restrict how the funds are used. Also unlike banks that can make you wait weeks or months for approval and have lengthy applications, applying for working capital with us is easy and funding is fast. Greenbox Capital business cash advances and small business loans from $5,000 to $250,000 can be deposited in your bank account as fast as 24 hours.
Come to Greenbox Capital to fulfill your restaurant business's potential.
- Minimum 6 months in business
- Low credit scores OK
- No collateral needed
- Collateral-backed financing available
- Lump sum funding as fast as 24 hours
- Automatic repayment
- Set or variable payment options
- No hidden fees
A business line of credit provides the flexibility to draw on cash as needed. Renewals with business lines of credit are possible without 50% payback of the original advanced amount. We also offer special programs such as 3 Stip Business Cash Advance and an Early Pay-Off option. Additionally, ask about a collateral-backed merchant cash advance or short-term small business loan if your cash flow doesn't meet unsecured business funding requirements.
¹ Greenbox Capital Merchant Cash Advances may not be available in all regions of the United States or Canada.
² Greenbox Capital Small Business Loans may not be available in all regions of the United States or Canada.

Because we offer cost effective logos, we often attract one-man start-ups. A retired gentleman who is putting up his own "web store".
Let's get this straight: In the offline world, location matters. You make money because you are close and convenient. I'm not going to drive to the larger (cheaper) hardware store if your hardware store is just around the corner.
That does not work on the web. Your "web store" is no closer than Amazon.com. Besides, I know Amazon. I have bought from their store before. I trust them. They are fast too. Why would I change to "i-sell-cool-stuff-from-home.com".
Why would I risk entering my credit card details there?
Why would I wait 2 weeks for you to ship the thing?
To buy a DVD that I could get cheaper at Amazon?
I won't.
You will have to do better. Web stores that sell a collection of cool stuff don't work.
What should you sell?
Something no-one else is selling. Sure the market is probably smaller, but this is the web. Every single one of the 7.5 billion people on this planet is around the corner from your web store. Specialize! Be #1 in something – anything – and you will have a viable start to your business.
Or try to beat Amazon. Your call.

Well that was an election, wasn't it? There's lots of analysis elsewhere, but I'm particularly fascinated by one particular detail: the battle for Kensington and Chelsea. Apparently, wonderfully, Labour managed to take the hitherto safe Conservative seat with 16,333 votes to 16,313. Twenty votes. That's incredible. That's the size of an average Made in Chelsea dinner party.
Anyway, here's an idea: an exhibition in a gallery in Kensington/Chelsea, nothing but twenty beautifully framed spoiled ballots. Abstaining as art. The difference between red and blue. Twenty crappy little doodles and profanities. Twenty symbols of the huge and indelible social/cultural shift in London. Twenty reminders that that, yes, every single vote does matter.

Launched for a A REMARKABLE BOTTLE FOR A REMARKABLE VINTAGE at Vinexpo 2014, Hong Kong.
In September 2012 Château Angélus was acclaimed by Saint-Emilion's new
classi2cation as a First Great Classi2ed Growth "A". 2012 is the property's 2rst vintage to bear this distinction which the de Boüard de Laforest family was keen to celebrate by creating a new style of bottle: a remarkable bottle for a remarkable vintage. With a black cap presenting the de Boüard de Laforest family crest, the 2012 bottle has replaced its traditional paper label with an imprint in embossed
gold. The precious alloy adorns the glass, bestows its radiance and enhances
the bell, the emblem of Angélus.
All of the 2012 harvest, currently maturing and to be delivered in autumn
2014 will have these impressive bottles, available partly in a limited edition
of large capacity bottles, ranging from magnum to imperial. Château Angélus strives to achieve ever higher standards. Its constant aspiration is to be on a par with the con2dence of its connoisseurs and wishes to thank them with this remarkable bottle.
Embossed gold, a complex production process:
A rst enamel imprint is red at 600°C before vitrifying to become entirely part
of the glass. It is then covered with a gold print that undergoes a second ring
at 500°C, during which the gold totally adheres to the layer of enamel.
The decoration is completed by brushing which reveals the delicacy and
radiance of the genuine 21.7 carat gold.

This blog is dedicated to Christina's father, Mr. Ken Getzlaf, who couldn't be there to walk his beautiful daughter down the aisle on her wedding day but visited her in a unique way. You are truly missed.
Rest In Love, Mr. Getzlaf!
Months before Christina and Sean's wedding, Christina's father passed away. She wanted to do something special for her father on her wedding day so she and Sean planned to release about a dozen Monarch butterflies during their ceremony at the Hilton Waikiki Beach Hotel.
It was a very beautiful day in paradise for this destination couple from San Diego, California. Everyone was having a great time laughing, smiling and bonding. At the ceremony when it was time to release the Monarch butterflies there was one butterfly in particular that didn't want to fly away. We all believe that it was Ken Getzlaf visiting his daughter on her special day. He landed on her bouquet and never left her side, even at the reception, this butterfly was still there on the bouquet to witness the entire event.
I've never witnessed this ever in my life but it was such a heart touching moment and I will never forget it. I can't say that I've never met Mr. Getzlaf because I did... As a handsome Monarch butterfly. Thank you Christina and Sean for this unforgettable wedding!

No sir, I am pretty certain you can't sue the manufacturer for this injury.
Yes sir, I can see that you are in a precarious situation, what with that body part all stuck in that orbital sander.
I am really interested in hearing how in the name of all that is holy how you managed to do that, but really, you are going to have to stop screaming like a smitten schoolgirl first.
What was a guy living in a million-dollar home doing using an orbital sander, anyways. Sanding baseboard molding? Don't you have money to pay someone to do that for you? You probably paid a handsome sum to have those ugly ass paintings over there done.
I hope your wife looks better than that painting, by the way.
Seriously, dude. Quit screaming. No, I don't have Propfol, nor do I have Novacaine. Plus, neither one of those would help anyways. Well, one of those certainly would help.
Help me at least.
Please shut up. This is awkward enough as it is. What exactly are you going to tell your wife, anyways?
Okay, I'm really tired of hearing your screams echo off these cavernous walls. This is going to hurt really bad. You can cry now. Yes, yes, like a big boy. It's over now.
Hospital time, sir. Here, have a seat. Yes, you have to go to the hospital. We need to get a specialist to take a look at that.
Really? You want to sue the manufacturer? You're kidding, right? Dude, you just told me that you left this thing plugged in to the wall.
Pretty sure it says somewhere in the owner's manual to unplug it before doing any type of work on it. And I'm pretty sure that isn't normal.
Good luck with your case, dude.
