Shutting Out the Sun
How Japan Created Its Own Lost GenerationBook - 2006
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
Keep in mind that this was written in 2007, before the 2008 financial meltdown in the US, so there is hubris in his opinions of the Japanese financial systems.
The book starts out with a troubling social phenomenon, but that only lasts for a few chapters. It then veers off into a criticism of Japanese society as a whole. While the information is interesting, the fact that the author is neither an anthropologist or historian should caution the reader to take his conclusions with a large grain of salt. An opportunity to compare how Japan treats people who don't conform to their society with how the Amish treat those who elect to leave their community (i.e. shunning) was not explored. Claiming that Japanese Americans turned their backs on Japan when they left the country totally overlooks the racism and WWII internment experience that forced these people to make a choice they would not have ordinarily made.
I still found the majority of the book interesting, in spite of the bias shown by the author.
Hertz is right. The author seems to really disapprove of everything Japanese, and uses both the U.S. economy and South Korea's acceptance of western christian culture as icons of perfection. He gives so little attention to the hikikomori that I pretty much felt baited and switched,
Overall a worthy read, though the author does seem to take a curious stance toward his subject: Japanese society. In the all-too-short focus on the actual Hikikomori as individual cases, he is able to identify and sympathize with their condition, along with a perfunctory discussion of lone would-be rehabilitation providers and their methods.
The rest of this book adopts a more clinical approach, with scathing overviews of the ongoing faults within the structure of society. Corporate life, family life, lack of self identity in favor of the group.
Uses South Korea as a convenient tool to bash Japan's current situation and national state of denial.

Project Positioning allows 2nd year students to make a survey on a freely chosen context in order to define a problematic and the opportunity to set up a design project. I decided first to add keywords (tags) to each project in order to get a tag-cloud visually reflecting subjects that interest students .
Here, you can see this cloud where "Web2.0″, "socialnetworks" and "interaction" are the most mentioned keywords. The Cloud is made with the online application Wordle

Then, as part of my current research, I used TouchGraph to generate a map of relationships between students relating to the tags of their projects.

I'm happy to announce that one of Japan's leaders in tackle manufacturing, Biovex and myself have come to an agreement that will highlight me sporting around the freshly wrapped Ranger showcasing the Biovex logo's as I partake in some of the highest national level pro tournaments the U.S. has to offer. Taking a giant jump forward in my quest to compete in a Bassmaster Classic and a FLW Forest Wood Cup, as well as attempt qualifying for tour level play.
Biovex is preparing for their highly anticipated release to the U.S. market in early 2012. I'll be out putting their innovative and quality baits to the ultimate test, trying to work my way towards the top of the pack of professional bass fishing.
My Ranger is in getting wrapped as we speak. Here is a template of my boat and what it will look like when it's complete.
I'll be sure to post pictures of the finished product as soon as it's ready to hit the water.
In anticipation for the 2012 season when I plan to make the jump to the Opens, Everstarts and/or PAA Tour events, I'm using this time to learn and progress myself as much as possible. Preparation is key and though I understand there will be a significant learning curve, I still plan to put myself in position to succeed. This is a major opportunity for me and I plan to take full advantage. I'm working on my weaknesses and mastering my strengths by trying to be on the water every available second. For instance, there's a certain lake that has always been a tough lake for me when the smallies are shallow. If there not in 25 plus feet than I often enough find myself looking from the outside once it's time to hand out checks. So when the opportunity came to get out there with my buddy Ryan Brant just for the fun of it, I was all in.
We were able to help each other become a better angler. I helped tune him into a deep bite and at the same time I learned something from him when the bass are shallow. In the end I was slinging 4 pounders on the new Biovex Kolt Fish Tail like I'd been doing it all my life. Now because of that I built confidence in methods that have historically got the better of me, making me a more versatile angler.
All for now, heading out of town soon to one of my favorite places in the world! More details on that soon.

Every year, four.3 million individuals die prematurely from burning biomass in inefficient stoves in poorly ventilated spaces. Inexperienced vitality nevertheless, does lead to some air pollution, which is minimal in nature. 4 amazing, photo voltaic-powered animals are a green sea slug named the japanese emerald elysia, an animal referred to as the mint sauce worm, an insect named the oriental hornet and the embryos of the spotted salamander.
With an extra fees in your common energy invoice you possibly can assist them manage alternative vitality programs. This was a kind of Soros well timed investments (twelve various power and utility firms) that I had alluded to to start with of this post and uncovered in my March 2013 Inexperienced Corruption File.
Additionally added are companies providing for patients affected by PTSD, most cancers and submit surgical pain. A blockage of green vitality can also block or suppress the behaviour and traits associated with green personalities. These 10 artistic photo voltaic power functions show the extent of renewable vitality know-how.
Significant seasonal variations are additionally seen and this wind power power producing gear requires a high stage of vitality demand management and complicated storage solutions. Even though this supply of power provides a lot of the electrical energy requirements to the world, it's extremely costly.
Inexperienced Tags are created when wind power or other renewable energy is substituted for traditional energy. Another design characteristic allows the electrical motor to regain kinetic energy throughout braking. Every firm desires a new worker who can develop products at low value, and so if you can get experience in this space it should play nicely when you are in search of a new green engineering job.
This era of electricity is the power you will use to power your home or workplace with. Now the tough half about that is there's a lot competitors in it that it's a must to mainly bid to get work from the businesses. However, solar energy vitality technology is rising at a rate of 20-30 % annually.
If in case you have numerous land, vitality corporations can pay you for the appropriate to set up a wind turbine on it. You and your neighbors will profit from free power and this set up will not take quite a lot of house. Another choice is to seek out an vitality saving franchise and put money into a company that has a file of success.

Today my wonderfully helpful sister was weeding my jungle of a garden. She told me there were tons of tomatoes, especially cherry ones. Then she exclaimed that there were these really long cucumbers hanging off the back fence.
"Cucumbers?," I thought. Didn't all my cukes die during the heat wave a couple of weeks ago? And since when do cucumbers get "really long"? (Yes, I know about English cucumbers, but I wouldn't consider them really long.) "Mmm, I'll go take a look," I told her.
Frankly, I have been avoiding my garden like the FREAKIN' PLAGUE for the past two weeks since I was eaten ALIVE by freakin' NJ mosquitos. (My swollen and itchy legs gave me a new appreciation for migrant farm workers who break their backs harvesting the food we find in the grocery store. I know the work is oppressive, but add mosquito bites and images of torture conjure in my mind.) Thus, why the garden is overgrown with weeds and the vegetables are overripe and nibbled upon by voracious bunnies.
But… you are never going to believe what I found!!!
Beautiful red, ripened tomatoes of all shapes and sizes.
Japanese eggplant, when baked in olive oil and tossed with salt and fresh garden parsley, tastes like candy. The one Italian eggplant that had grown to the proper size had a massive bunny bite. Damn you Peter Rabbit!
Two cucumbers that survived the heat wave.
Tons of basil which made a lovely addition to the tomato and cucumber salad for dinner.
And… 40 inch long cucuzzas! Look at the size of it compared to a medium-sized tomato!
Now, I knew when I saw them, they were NOT cucumbers. I remembered I did plant some Italian squash or gourd, but could not recall the name of the vegetable/fruit. The garden store was sold out of zucchini seedlings, so I purchased "something" with an Italian name. However, I could not for the life of me, find that little-plastic-thingy with its description that my son methodically moved from the plant tray into the ground months ago in late spring. What the h*ll was this thing? So, I did what every 21st century homemaker does nowadays, I googled. Here's what I typed:
"very long Italian squash"
Here's what came up:
Cucuzza (or "goo-gootz" in the slang)
"Daddy's mother used to make Goo-gootz," my 80-year-old mom informed me. "Very tasty," she explained, "baked with olive oil and salt."
I did a little research and there are many fun recipes to make with cucuzza. It can be substituted for zucchini, like in zucchini bread. The cucuzza just needs to be peeled. (There's also a fun song called, My Cucuzza, by Louis Prima.)
My kids loved walking around with this vegetable oddity, longer than they are tall. A weapon of mass destruction for my 3-year-old boy. A humorous "cucumber" for my eldest son. A counter-weight for my toddling toddler.
A pleasant surprise for this Jersey mom! What's growing in your garden?
This is an original post for Jersey Moms Blog by Brenda Milouchev, a New Jersey mom. Although Brenda would have liked to reap zucchini more than cucuzza, she looks forward to the cooking adventure that lies ahead with her new-found Italian veggie.

Elise Christie was born in Livingston and moved to Nottingham when she was 15 in order to pursue her sporting dream.
After representing Team GB at the 2010 Olympic Winter Games, Christie enjoyed the most successful season ever by a British female short track speed skater in 2012/13 - finishing the campaign ranked top in the 1000m world rankings, with two European gold medals to her name.
There's not much this young Scot has left to achieve in the world of short track speed skating, but having left Sochi 2014 - her second Games - empty-handed Elise Christie has a score to settle on the Winter Olympic stage.
A ten-time European champion, Christie stormed into the record books once more in March 2017, winning the world titles at 1000m, 1500m and the overall gold, the first British and first European woman to do so.
Following three disqualifications at Sochi 2014, the 12-time World medallist will be confident of improving on her previous Olympic best result of 11th in the 500m on the ice in PyeongChang.

Teaching and Learning Language: Who Should Be Accountable?
Hoetker, James
Illinois English Bulletin, v59 n4 p19-24 January 1972
Remarks are made on the matter of who should be held accountable for students learning to read and write. It is stated that ways are needed to restructure schools so that teachers may reasonably be held responsible for seeing that all clinically normal students are able to read and write with at least minimal competence. It is believed that this restructuring of the present school system should result in small, locally controlled school districts, such that the teacher can know the students and be accessible to their parents. These should be so administered that teachers are given the final responsibility for all professional decisions. Such a teacher-run school would be accountable to the students and their parents, and to its funding authority only for demonstrating it is meeting the wishes of its clients and handling its funds in a legal manner. Prior to the reform of the present educational system, it is pointed out that everyone in a school is accountable for helping children learn to read and write. (DB)

I played the 9 hole Montrose South Links Pitch and Putt Course on 9 July 2014 en route to Royal Aberdeen GC to watch the Scottish Open. This little links course had formerly been managed by the adjacent children's play park but had recently become the responsibility of Montrose Golf Links Ltd, which looks after the Montrose Medal and Broomfield courses. The South Links course is located beyond the practice area immediately behind the pro shop. The course is only 701 Yards in total, with holes ranging from 63-102 Yards. The 4 holes at 80 Yards and over are actually classed on the scorecard as Par 4s, making this a Par 31 course. Normally I'd expect a Par 4 to be over 250 Yards long, but as I'm not aware of any absolute rule on such matters, I guess it's for the owners of the many golf courses that are not officially registered to decide on the par of particular holes. Equally, we can only score our play against the scorecard provided to us, so despite it's extreme short length and its scorecard description as a pitch and putt course, the South Links would appear to be a "proper" golf course.
I have a particular fondness for links courses in general, particularly in high Summer when these courses run fast, forcing golfers to use their imagination and create shots to suit the terrain and weather conditions. The past few weeks have been pretty dry, warm and sunny in Scotland and one look at the South Links was enough to tell me that this little course would be running very fast. The 1st hole looked burnt to a crisp and at only 86 Yards read as a Par 4 on the scorecard. I'd taken my 9 iron, 58 degree lob wedge and putter onto the course. I reckoned that any of those clubs would get me to the green easily enough, but I opted for a pitch and run with the 9 iron. I landed the ball around 50 yards out but it finished a good 20 yards through the green in light wispy rough. It then dawned on me that the course hadn't been watered much (if at all!) in the recent dry, warm and sunny weather. A Par 4 was a decent enough result. Here are a few random photos of the course that I hope demonstrate the extreme dryness of the course.
The first 3 holes are 86, 102 and 80 yards long and are all classed as Par 4s. I overhit my tee shots on each of these holes but scrambled a par each time. The 4th is the first Par 3, at only 67 Yards. I opted to putt from the tee and still almost went through, leaving myself an almost impossible downhill putt from 20 feet. I deliberately miss-hit that putt off the toe of my putter in order to deaden the stroke (try it sometime - it works!) but even that sailed past the hole, leaving me an awkward 15 foot uphill putt that, if it didn't drop, might come back to me. I holed the putt to escape with another par.
I managed to score 3's on each of the remaining holes, including an unlikely birdie on the Par 4 7th (all of 81 Yards!) Scary stuff and definitely the fastest running course I've played for a long time. Great fun, though and a gross 30 (1 under par) with 14 putts was good scoring. I didn't have time for another round, but a gross 30 without a bogey will do me anytime, even on such a short course. This course lies on the landward side of an old sand dune, with the children's play park on the seaward side. The park was crowded with parents and kids having a great (and noisy) time on a hot summer's day. Sadly, I was the only gollfer enjoying the South Links course. Play it if you get the chance, and enjoy!

This weekend my family travelled to Boston to celebrate the wedding of our dear friend Riz to his new wife, Ditha. I have known Riz for 12 years and he was basically my big brother growing up. He stood up in mine and Bob's wedding and he is family. We were honored to be a part of his wedding celebrations. We are spending the weekend in Boston so I will hopefully have some more fun things from our trip to share soon!
We attended their American wedding reception. Riz and Ditha were married in Indonesia (their home country) in December. The American reception was and intimate party held in a small art gallery in Waltham, MA.

Music Instrument Rental
EVERYTHING MUSICAL in partnership with Veritas Instrument Rental Incorporated.
Affordable student music instrument rental program including:
RENT TO OWN (Default in the program):With each payment made, you've been building equity in your child's musical instrument. 100% of the Base Rent paid has been automatically applied toward the purchase. Thus, you will eventually own your instrument if your payments are continued. For example, if your monthly Base Rent is $20 and you've made 12 payments, you've accumulated $240.00 in rent credit. In many cases, that's over a third of the purchase price! Many parents consider returning at the end of each school year because the summer months include a break from musical instruction (through school programs and/or private lessons). The same numbers of parents, however, do not realize that returning the instrument cancels the music instrument rental agreement and all rent credit or equity is lost. Consequently, a new music instrument rental agreement must be established when students return to their music programs in the Fall. Is your child expressing an interest in music education for next year? Be sure to ask your child of his or her continued interest before you return.
20 Simple Ways You Can Help Your Student Succeed in Music Education
- Celebrate their decision to bring music into their life and participate in a school music program.
- Read the literature brought home from school and determine what is required to get started.
- If there is an open house or parent meeting, plan to attend with your child.
- Acquire a musical instrument that is in proper playing condition. Investigate rent-to-own programs.
- Be sure your child has any required method books or learning materials prior to the first day of class.
- Provide a suitable time and place for home practice. Don't cast them out to the garage!
- Encourage and support practice. That awful noise will only turn into beautiful music with practice.
- Develop a rapport with the music educator. Ask for their list of ways you can help your child.
- Get involved in booster and fundraising organizations. It's quality time invested into a great cause.
- Be generous with your acknowledgements of your child's progress. Learning to play isn't easy!
- Don't rule out learning to play, yourself. Music making is an extremely rewarding experience.
- Record your child's home practices on tape/cd. Listen with them and praise their improvements.
- Enhance their interest by purchasing current/popular sheet music at your local music store.
- DO NOT, under any circumstance, miss their first public performance. This is their big day.
- Offer rewards for the tough hurdles. Research upgrade instruments when the time is right.
- If your child is struggling, don't give up. Seek the advice of the music director and offer your help.
- Don't push from one side, but rather support from all angles. Rally the entire family behind the effort.

New oxide materials for advanced electro-optical applications: defect structure as related to performance
Gesamtkosten:Nicht verfügbar
EU-Beitrag:EUR 25 000
Koordiniert in:Germany
Thema(en):15 - Condensed Matter Physics
Strontium barium niobate (SBN) and lithium niobate (LiNbO3) are materials which have a high potential for improved electro-optical applications because of recent discoveries. In SBN holographic writing, orthogonally polarized waves in so-called forbidden configurations have been established and in the case of LiNbO3 a new and rather simple crystal growth procedure for growing stoichiometric samples with strongly reduced optical damage has been identified.
This project concentrates, in the case of SBN, on the investigation of the icroscopic origin of the defect-induced dichroitic absorption bands of known and new impurities driving holographic writing, with the aim of improving the performance of the material. In LiNbO3 further routes for growth of stoichiometric material as well as the role of defects and crystal homogeneity on the optical behaviour of the material will be identified. Details of the electronic structure of the defects will be investigated with magnetic resonance methods.
The extensive range of sensitive methods available in the participating laboratories for investigating crystal structure and defects will be used to achieve the indicated goals.

Educational Arts Society is making a positive impact on Detroit and surrounding communities that motivate, inspire and improve the lives of children and seniors. Involvement includes volunteering for school activities that connect youth with career opportunities and life direction and reaching out to the increasing number of seniors in nursing homes or senior community-style living.
Saxophonist Duane Parham visits and plays for senior citizen homes and is over-whelmed and humbled by their deep appreciation. The connection enlarges his desire to give of himself and reveals their joy in knowing that "the world has not forgotten" them. He interviewed an 89-year-old woman who told him of the many contributions she had made during her years in the theater and let him know that seniors can still make needed contributions even though they have given up being part of the daily workforce. She remarked, "People think we are washed up"
On March 27, 2015, Parham and Dr. Mamie Smith were part of Career Day at Marcus Garvey Academy in Detroit. Smith visited four classes of 6th, 7th and 8th Graders and shared many life experiences as a teacher, musician, author and talk show host. She even performed "mock interviews" with visiting authors Julia Tolliver and Anita Gibbs. It was encouraging to see how many of the young men and women were already on their way to becoming poets and authors. Duane Parham blew his horn as young aspiring musicians "banged on drums" to accompany him. Throughout the day, several classes were able to hear him in concert at one of the gymnasiums in the school. Click on each picture to enlarge it.
Marcus Garvey Academy, under the leadership of Principal James Hearn and support staff, is a school that exhibits academic achievement, self-esteem and respect for others. One has only to walk through the lined hallways displaying shiny floors, pictures revealing pride, self-identification, knowledge and artistic skill, to know that he is in a "high-performing, learning environment. If a visitor "lost his way" in the winding halls, young guides were on hand to point the way!

Marcus Garvey Academy hosted its annual "Career Day" on Friday, March 27. The annual Career Day is designed to expose students to a variety of careers led by top professionals in their fields. This event also allows students to gain first-hand knowledge into the many opportunities available.
Detroit Police Chief James Craig attended the event representing the Detroit Police and Fire Departments, and students had the opportunity to explore a helicopter and fire truck on site. Guests were also greeted with live entertainment by Saxophonist Duane Parham and there was a live broadcast from WDIV Reporter Brandon Roux for a Live in the D segment in Garvey's library!
Additionally, nearly 60 professionals, ranging from doctors to entrepreneurs, visited Garvey for the annual Career Day event.

Learn about the first atomic explosion in history as well as some of the circumstances that led to the decision to use the bomb in this clip from The Bomb. Vice-President Harry Truman was never told about the secret bomb project. When President Roosevelt died suddenly in April 1945, Truman found himself responsible for the bomb. By July 1945, the first bomb was ready to test, but the scientists had no idea if it would work or what would happen if it did. People who were there that night were awed and amazed by its power. Few realized at that moment how profoundly the bomb would change the world.

Sephora Haul !
Hey luvs!
I haven't done a lot of makeup posts lately.. But that's about to change!
I got a few Sephora gift cards for Christmas, so on Thursday I decided to go and use them. I picked up:
- Tarte Amazonian Clay Bronzer
- Bobbi Brown Highlighting Powder
- Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray
- Anastasia Beverly Hills Contour Kit
- I actually got a sample size of this bronzer in my July Ipsy bag. I love the subtle shimmer and the sun kissed glow it gives when applied.
- I have never tried this highlighter before, but one of my favourite makeup artists, Amrezy has used it many times.. So I had to try it out. I will be posting a new makeup look soon using it, and I'll let you all know what I think!
- I have used the Urban Decay De-Slick makeup setting spray, with oil control before. I decided to try the All Nighter version instead, since I don't really have oily skin. I'll update you guys and let you know which I prefer.
- The contour kit was actually a re stock purchase. I am actually planning on buying the cream contour kit as well soon, since I haven't tried it yet.
Have any of you tried these products before? Do you prefer the powder or cream contour kit? Comment below and let me know!

The New Arab Wars: Uprisings and Anarchy in the Middle East
May 03, 2016
By Marc Lynch, Professor of Political Science and International Affairs.
Marc Lynch's last book, The Arab Uprising, described the then ongoing revolutionary change and prospect for the consolidation of democracy in key Arab countries that still seemed possible. But Lynch saw dark signs on the horizon, especially in Syria. That book ended with the hope that the Arab uprisings heralded a fundamental change over the long-term, but with the warning that Arab regimes would not easily give up their power. Instead, Egypt's revolution has given way to a military coup; Libya's produced a failed state; Yemen is the battleground for a proxy war and will be destroyed; Syria has become a sprawling humanitarian catastrophe that will take a generation to begin to recover from.
At the same time, America has less and less reason to want to engage with the region and is at odds with virtually all of its putative allies. The New Arab Wars describes how the political landscape of an entire region has been convulsed, with much of it given over to anarchy, as proxy wars on behalf of three competing powers—Iran, Turkey and Saudi Arabia—scar the region. It is a brutal, compelling story.

Ooops! Gave the kiddies Sangria and not OJ—half an hour later. Imagine that: you are out to dinner with your family, you order an OJ for your child and there face lights up with excitement when they see that sipping cup with the cool straw. Well, just wait until they start sipping, that 's not OJ making them act out that's Sangria . . . yeah the manager just comes over and tells you they made a "mistake."
This was the exact scenario at an Olive Garden restaurant in Lakeland, Florida off of U.S. Highway 98. Jill VanHeest, the mother of a two-year old, did not suspect anything wrong when he started acting up. The manager came over to her table half-hour after serving the child Sangria and admitted there had been a mix-up at the bar. At that point, VanHeest says she couldn't discipline her sone because he wasn't acting out, he was drunk!
The child was rushed to the hospital, but no major concerns health wise. VanHeest has hired an attorney, but has not made a decision as to whether she will pursue any legal action.

Ouch. In accordance with the late Terry Pratchett's wishes, a hard-drive containing his unfinished novels was crushed by a "vintage John Fowler & Co. steamroller named Lord Jericho at the Great Dorset Steam Fair," the Guardian reported.

Albertsons COO Wayne Denningham on Wednesday was given the additional role of president of Albertsons Cos., the retailer said Wednesday.
Denningham will continue to lead store operations with added oversight of marketing and merchandising, supply chain, manufacturing and integration, all of which will continue under their current leadership. Bob Miller remains chairman and CEO, a role he has held since April 2015.
"This is the strongest leadership team I've worked with in my 50-plus years in this industry," Miller said in a statement. "I asked Wayne to join Albertsons LLC in 2006 to lead our Rocky Mountain Division. Since that time, he's led three different divisions, helped to negotiate and manage some of our most significant acquisitions, and successfully turned around some of our toughest assets. He's a remarkable leader with tremendous grocery retail acumen, and I'm pleased that he's accepted this new role."
Denningham began his career with Albertson's Inc. in 1977 as a clerk and worked his way up in the organization, serving in district manager roles in three different divisions before being named division president, first of the Rocky Mountain division and later the Florida division.
Subsequently, he was promoted to president for five divisions of Albertsons, and then served as both EVP of marketing and merchandising and operations for the company before leaving in 2004.
He joined Albertson's LLC in 2006 and served as division president of the Rocky Mountain, Florida and Southern divisions over the next seven years.
In March 2013, Denningham was named president of the Southern California division following the acquisition of 877 stores from Supervalu, and in January 2015, he assumed the role South region COO following the merger with Safeway. He was named EVP and COO of Albertsons Cos. in April 2015.
Denningham is based at the company's Boise, Idaho, corporate campus.

I knew that I had an interest in photography from the time I also knew I had an interest in the guitar...which was about the age of five. I got my first camera as a gift from my parents for my eighth birthday. It was one of those clunky Kodak Instamatic box cameras with the pop off flash cube thingies that burned your fingers when you tried to remove them and it had those plastic snap in film cartridges that were supposed to be idiot proof. Well, apparently for me they weren't idiot proof. I used that little Kodak camera for many of my first family vacations and I took a lot of pictures that were blurry from camera shake or blurry from subject movement or they were overexposed, underexposed and sometimes I'd have my finger in front of the lens...... Succinctly, if it could ruin your photograph...I did it. I had a lot of ambition to learn how to shoot good pictures in my early years but I had no real camera or instruction in the art of photography and the greatest majority of my first efforts were terrible.
By the time I hit my teens I was working in a local restaurant and I decided that the only way I was ever going to learn how to shoot properly was to start by getting an actual tool, so I bought my first "real" camera when I was fifteen years old in 1975. I had worked for six months as a dishwasher making $2.10 an hour and had finally saved up enough money to buy the "camera of my dreams." It was a Canon F-tb with a 50mm f/1.8 lens, which at the time cost me $259. In 1975 that was an enormous amount of money for a fifteen year old kid. When my grandfather, a stout Scotsman, heard of my intended purchase he snorted at me in his thick Scottish brogue, "ar ya off yer nit?!" (translation....are you nuts?) Obviously he didn't think my paying that much for a camera at my age was a good idea. None the less...I was not deterred. Once I had learned how to use that camera I joined my high school yearbook committee and photographed for them for four of the five years I spent in high school. Many of my images grace the yearbook from those years. My time on that yearbook committee solidified my passion for photography and it shone a light toward my future profession. I decided in my last year that I would pursue photography for a living...much to the distress of my father who wanted me to be a carpenter like him.
In order to improve my chances of succeeding in the vocation I decided to apply to Ryerson Polytechnical Institute (now a University) for their film and fine art program and study the profession in earnest. Ryerson offered the most prestigious photography course in the entire country and students from all over Canada applied to study there. I was fortunate enough to be accepted and I began my studies in September of 1980. During that time I had moved out of the family home to be on my own and had also started working as a sub-contracted photographer at the Ontario Jockey Club photographing harness horse racing in order to support myself. I worked five nights a week from five at night until midnight...and sometimes later. The next day I would sleepily attend my courses. That workload quickly became oppressive and in my second year at Ryerson I was unable to complete the majority of my course assignments. It was not long before I was hopelessly behind in achieving my grades. It was also then that a fortuitous event occurred which would shape my future for the next few years.
The photographer at the Ontario Jockey Club I was working for decided to let his contract with the organization expire and it then became open to tender for any business enterprise. My co-worker at the time and I decided that rather than be thrust out of our jobs completely simply because the contract was expiring beneath us that we would form a business partnership and tender the contract ourselves under a new business partnership....so we formed a legal partnership and did just that. Since we were already at the race track doing the very job being contracted out for the Jockey Club saw the wisdom in hiring us as a partnership and they awarded us the contract. That was an enormous moment in my beginnings as a photographer. We began our business partnership in the late fall of 1982. I also quickly realized that it was completely redundant for me to continue paying for and studying a profession in University when I had just been granted a lucrative contract photographing the largest horse racing operation in Canada and I was also immediately making a great income in my chosen profession...so...I made the decision to leave Ryerson in the middle of my second year and pursue this new golden opportunity.
We were financially extremely successful for the few years of our operation but I quickly grew weary of working nights only as the Standardbreds only raced in the evenings. This was not something I could have foreseen when I began the partnership. So, I decided to sell my share of the business in 1985 to pursue other opportunities. I then went to work as a photographer for the Mississauga News, a small community newspaper in the city of Mississauga where I lived. It was a fun job and I enjoyed the assignments I was given but it never paid very much so later that year I decided that I would switch career gears entirely and attempt to secure a career in firefighting, something that I had always thought about in the back of my mind but had never pursued. I applied to many of the departments in the southern Ontario region and I was hired by the Markham Fire and Emergency services on August 5th, 1986.
I continued to work in photography all throughout my thirty year career in firefighting. In 1979 I had made my first skydive and in the fall of 1986...my initial year in firefighting... I pioneered the first ever wing strut mounted camera system in Canada that photographed static line student skydivers exiting from a Cessna 206 aircraft. I sold tens of thousands of images to first jump students as souvenirs of their skydive and the business did extremely well for 24 years. At one point in the early years of that business I had three separate drop zone photographic operations going at the same time. At the same time I was also continuing to skydive on my own and build my experience and in 2004 I also branched out into tandem videography/photography and skydived alongside tandem students and their tandem masters photographing the students making their first tandem skydive. I made thousands of skydives photographing tandem students from 2004 until 2012. In total I surpassed 6,500+ jumps before hanging up my rig.....(for the time being....).
In 2005 I began a minor hockey league tournament photography business and I ran that during the winter weekends while continuing to run my skydiving photography business during the summer months. I shot approximately 130 hockey tournaments through seven years before shutting down the business in the fall of 2012. Both of these businesses ran in conjunction with my full time service on the fire department.
I retired from the fire service on January 31st, 2017 after thirty years and six months of professional city firefighting. It is a career which I am proud of and will always look back on fondly.
I now begin the next chapter of my life as: "The Wandering Fireman". I plan to travel the world extensively and photograph my adventures along the way and I invite you all to experience those travels with me through the words and images I post.
Please feel free to write me and tell me how you think I'm doing so far and what I can do to improve what I do...........and thanks for joining me.

More and more people are now turning to the power of hypnosis and Neuro linguistic programming or NLP to help them to solve their problem and get on with their lives. hypnosis is now much better understood and respected as possibly the most powerful tool for healing and personal development. Thankfully, at long last, Clinical Hypnosis has also lost that unhelpful association with stage hypnosis, which caused fear in many people who would have benefitted.
Practically everone can be hypnotised. In fact we all go into hypnosis every day of our lives. Remember when you last made a journey, perhaps to work, and when you got there couldn't remember the journey because your mind was on other things! Every time we day dream we are in a form of hypnosis.
When you go to see a hypnotherapist, they know how to harness this ability you have by tapping into your subconscious. This is the place where all our memories and experiences are stored, and it is from here that our habits – good or bad – are stored to influence changes in the way you respond so that new and more helpful habits develop.
Whilst we can change most habits through our conscious mind and lots of self-discipline and willpower – e.g. a smoker going 'cold turkey' – hypnosis makes the job a lot easier as it is focused on re-programming the subconscious to cause you to think, feel and behave differently.

Meditation, Mindfulness, and Yoga Nidra
And that was just Sunday!
4 hours of deep relaxation and learning
3 MP3s and E-book
Sunday 14th October 2018 at 13:30–17:30 £50.00
Chez Vicki, Aboyne
Meditation is an active and effortful process that literally changes the way the brain works. It enhances performance; improving focus; cognitive ability and quality of sleep. It produces the relaxation response; reducing stress; the recurrence of depression, biological ageing; pain symptoms and the sensation of pain itself.
"Time, like flowing water, never comes back. The same is true of life. That is why 'today' and 'now' are so important. What is important is how one lives in the now."
Hozumi Gensho Roshi
Mindfulness is simply paying attention.
It can be an internal focus or an external focus, like a Japanese Tea ceremony, or equally brushing your teeth! There's no need for special postures the whole idea is for it to be a part of everyday life.
* Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh teaches:
"There are two ways to wash the dishes. The first is to wash the dishes in order to have clean dishes and the second is to wash the dishes in order to wash the dishes." "While washing the dishes one should only be washing the dishes, which means that while washing the dishes one should be completely aware of the fact that one is washing the dishes. "If while washing the dishes we think only of the cup of tea that awaits us, thus hurrying to get the dishes out of the way as if they were a nuisance, then we are not 'washing the dishes to wash the dishes.' What's more, we are not alive during the time we are washing the dishes. In fact we are completely incapable of realising the miracle of life while standing at the sink."
Yoga Nidra is simply Yogic Sleep: your body sleeps but you keep your senses of hearing and feeling alert, while lying still in absolute comfort. It is a beautiful experience which takes you into Theta consciousness where healing occurs. We will state to ourselves a Sankalpa or intention at the beginning and the end which always comes true eventually….
Snuggle down into your own personal cocoon, allow your body to relax into a state akin to the deepest of sleeps, while your mind, staying alert, guided by my voice, attunes itself to the theta level where healing occurs…

KosherEye Featured Kitchen Tool
KosherEye Featured Kitchen Tool
Mix it up! Two Affordable Stand Mixers
Did you know that the #1 small appliance gift for newlyweds is a stand mixer? However, not all gifters or bridal couples can afford the ultra deluxe models, and not all cooks have the need for a luxury stand mixer. So we went on a search for affordable models that we think can step in. As we know, ideally, kosher homes actually need 2 appliances for everyday usage – one for dairy and one for meat. (And, possibly even a third one for Passover). Basic economics make it even more essential to find alternate budget priced mixers. We found 2 very appealing candidates.
Hamilton Beach Stand Mixer
The new powerful Hamilton Beach 63392 stand mixer is a versatile appliance, effortlessly mixing and kneading dough, cake batters and whipping eggs. meringues and cream. The powerful 300-watt motor can handle the thickest of ingredients, including our homemade oatmeal raisin, pecan, chocolate chip cookies. We didn't even have to scrape the bowl at the end. The unique planetary mixing action rotates the single oversized beater around the entire bowl, for even and complete mixing.
Seven speeds lets you go from a slow stir to a fast whirr, with simple and easy control of each one. Nonslip feet keep the mixer still while in use, and the detachable splatter shield prevents drops and spills and helps prevent "flying flour". Attachments include a flat beater, dough hook and whisk. All attachments, as well as the stainless steel 4-quart mixing bowl, are dishwasher safe.
We are impressed! We found the Hamilton Beach stand mixer just as efficient, easy to use and stylish as our classic luxury artisan mixer. Even a seasoned baker will like this model. Since many kosher homes need two mixers, this would be a great choice. And yes, we love the price. We found it online for $99 — including free shipping. A second bowl can be ordered for $44. This is an affordable winner! This Hamilton Beach stand mixer can be purchased at stores such as Target, Wal-Mart, and online at Amazon.
• Superior mixing comparable to more expensive stand mixers
• Complete bowl coverage
• Powerful 300 watt motor
• Includes flat beater, whisk, and dough hook
• 4 quart capacity stainless steel bowl with handle
• Includes splatter shield
• 7 speeds, • 14.5 lbs.
Dash Stand Mixer
On our search for affordable mixers, we came across the potable, lightweight Dash Everyday Stand Mixer which we found online for $39.99.
The Dash Mixer offers six preset speeds ranging from gentle mixing to high-speed whipping, and also includes dough hooks and a 3-quart stainless steel mixing bowl. The retro design, compact size and wide color range make this appliance quite stylish. It is easily portable, due to its lightweight. As one consumer wrote, "it is functional and cute" and a good buy. We recommend the Dash for small kitchens, college apartments, vacation homes, beginner cooks, and of course for Passover. The company does not yet offer an extra bowl for purchase.
Click HERE to see a Video of the Dash Stand Mixer in action!
Features & Benefits
• 3-quart capacity stainless steel mixing bowl
• 6 preset speeds range from low to high
• All non-electric parts are dishwasher safe.
• Portable-weighs less than 5 lbs. and fits neatly under cabinets
• 250 Watts

Bialetti – The 12" Titan
We're in "Pan Love"
We discovered the Bialetti Titanium fry pan in Chicago at the 2018 International Housewares Show, and we recently had the opportunity to work with it. (Thank you for our sample Bialetti!) How much do we like it? So much that we are going to purchase another one for the meat side of our kosher kitchen. We're using our test sample for dairy.
Our 12" pan absolutely requires no special care; nothing sticks; it heats evenly; is oven safe up to 400 degrees, and cleanup is a cinch- in the dishwasher. This quite amazing hi-tech pan is metal-utensil friendly. (Disclosure here- most of our utensils are silicone!)
We have used the Titan for scrambling eggs,omelets, fish, cheese frittata, pancakes and more. Everything cooked well and slid right out of the pan. And yes, it is oven safe. We're sold!
Watch Chef Fabio Viviani demonstrate some recipes: Chef Fabio Viviani demonstrates the Bialetti 12" Titan
- Metal-utensil safe Titanium-reinforced nonstick surface
- Micro divots surface elevate food to deter sticking
- Allows even oil distribution
- For use with gas and electric stoves

Lékué Microwave Corn Cooker (uncovered)
The Lékué microwave corn popper and the Lékué microwave rice cooker have become time saving, easy care, and indispensible kitchen helpers. We use both at least once weekly. So, when we had the opportunity to try the new Lékué Corn cooker, we were interested!
This little tool is another winner. We simply shucked and cleaned our corn on the cob, put 2 in the cooker, and placed the gadget in the microwave for 5 minutes. So simple, so delicious. The corn steamed itself. The built in corn holders made it quite easy to pick up the steamy hot corn, and allowed us to shake on the seasoning and butter while the corn was still too hot to touch.
Although summer is a perfect time for grilling corn, this microwave set from Lékué provides an even easier, faster way to enjoy corn on the cob. It cooks two ears of corn in just five minutes!
- Includes four knobs to flip corn for easily distributing butter or seasoning
- Steam outlet ensures crisp, fresh-tasting results
- Corn can be rotated using knobs to evenly add flavor
- Dishwasher safe for easy cleanup
- BPA-free

The Evo Oil Sprayer by Delta Industries
The EVO sprayer for edible oils has been updated in a more compact size. Designed by the renowned Michael Graves Design Group, the Evo Oil Sprayers are now available in 6 ounce glass bottles and a set of two 8 ounce plastic bottles, along with the original 18 ounce bottles. Each has an ergonomic trigger, which makes it easy to use. Fill them with you're your choice of oils and use for cooking, baking, sautéing or grilling or simply adding oil to salads. They use no propellants or chemicals. So, spray away!
The Evo bottles are not just simple spray bottles; they offer a way of using controlled amounts of your favorite cooking oils and dressings in a safe, healthy, economical, and Eco friendly way. They utilize a proprietary design and an advanced trigger sprayer, which result in aerosol-free spray of edible oil products.

Buying Tips for Loose Diamonds for Wedding
There are many tips in planning for a wedding especially when it comes in looking for your suppliers for catering services, venue, dresses and most especially your wedding jewelry. When buying loose diamonds for wedding in Los Angeles, CA, you have basically two primary marketplaces that you can get them from: online jewelers and physical stores. Whether you buy them from online stores or from a physical store, you should know how to be wise enough in order to make sure that you get the best deal of your money, more here http://losangelesdiamondbuyer.com/.
Here are tips that you should take note when buying unset diamonds.
Buying from Online Jewelers
First, ask the jeweler if their wholesale diamond Los Angeles pieces come with a full report from reputable grading lab such as the AGS or the GIA. Don't just make business with a shop that gives a report. A reliable report is your guarantee that the diamond you're buying is real and authentic, check this out www.losangelesdiamondseller.com/.
Second, inquire how long the online jeweler has been in the business, especially in the diamond selling business. For sure you would think twice before doing any business transaction with an online shop that's been in operation for just a couple of months.
Finally, make sure that the online shop provides a written money back guarantee and specific terms and conditions. Moreover, always read the fine prints of the contract or receipt before signing or confirming.
Buying from physical stores
When buying loose diamonds for wedding in Los Angeles, CA at physical stores, first ask if the store has an inhouse and certified gemologists that can professionally address all your questions and concerns.
Second, ask if they have a microscope for you to have a view of the stones at a magnified view. Also inquire if they have any proof of the color grading that they've stated in their report.
Finally, check if the store has installed lighting tools that will allow you to inspect the pieces of stones more closely and more accurately.

When it comes to saving a chicken-sized bird once considered for an endangered species listing, the overlap of conservation and drilling for oil and gas can drum up conflict.
With the Department of the Interior reviewing sage grouse conservation plans and President Donald Trump's directive to make energy development a priority on public lands, a renewed sage grouse debate in Wyoming is flaring up — and an upcoming lease sale in the southwestern part of the state may be the first battlefield.
