West Las Vegas High School students returned to school on Tuesday on a new 5x5 schedule despite an emergency injunction ruling by the state's Public Employees Labor Relations Board. A 5x5 schedule is a combination of both traditional and block scheduling.
Students at Union Elementary got one extra day of summer break, courtesy of the school not being fully ready for their arrival Monday morning. The West Las Vegas school site underwent a yearlong renovation that includes expanded classrooms, new paint and a revamped entrance. The district perfected the alarm system, applied fresh paint and renovated the entrance area to the west side school site.
San Miguel County commissioners voted unanimously last week to reject a request to abandon a portion of County Road C-53-D near Maes.
And Commissioner Ron Ortega made it clear that he isn't happy that the road in question is being blocked by a gate, asking county staff to address that issue.
A 74-year-old Las Vegas man was arrested last week on a warrant alleging that he wrecked into a woman's vehicle four months ago and then hit her with his truck as she was photographing the truck's license plate.
Fernando J. Gallegos is charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, a third-degree felony, and with two misdemeanor counts of leaving the scene of an accident involving damage and failure to give immediate notice of an accident.

Put simply, the purpose of having a fire door installed is to prevent the spread of a fire throughout the building, allowing occupants to more easily vacate and find a safe exit.
Our fire doors are best suited to be installed in any house situated in the private and social sector, always ensuring that these properties are up to snuff to stand the heat.
What is a fire door?
A fire door supplied by Vista consists of several elements. The door itself is typically made from a solid timber frame that also has the additional ability to be glazed with fire-resisting glass if necessary. For extra reinforcement and protection, an intumescent seal surrounds the frame designed to expand at exceedingly high temperatures. This seal tightens the gap between the door and frame.
Our FD30 fire doors are known as such due to their impressive ability to offer 30 minutes of protection to a room in the unlikely event of a fire. We know this fact as when manufactured, all fire doors are subject to testing by a fire testing centre and given official certification as well as a rating.
Ultimate safety and high performance
The FD30 fire door is designed to perform two primary functions. They provide a defensive barrier when shut to keep siphoned off areas protected, ensuring that any escape routes out of the building is always accessible. For optimal function, the FD30 fire door should be kept free of obstacles and obstructions.
As well as facilitating the safe evacuation from a building, the FD30 fire door is also essential if you want to protect a property in the event of a fire and reduce damage. The higher rated fire door that is installed, increases the likelihood that any valued items will remain safe. A fire door supplied by Vista features a 44mm thick slabs for extra reinforcement.
Where are they recommended for?
The Vista FD30 fire door is best suited to areas that are more at risk of being susceptible to a fire. As such the private and social housing sectors have proven most popular for installations. Modern domestic properties are subject to building regulations, stipulating when and where FD30 fire doors must be used.
Unique features to a Vista fire door
- Nan Ya slab/Ecoframe
- 100% non-toxic elements when burning
- Fire resisting glazing
- Automatic door lock for instant security
- Certified 30-minute door rating
- Available in 5 colours, ranging from black to red
Fire door suppliers you can trust in Vista
Our fire doors are available in any RAL colour as well as 5 base variants. They do not release any harmful gases in the event of a fire, using 100% non-toxic material and an Ecoframe made from recycled materials. With a FD30 fire door you can offer your customers style as well as security.
Established in 1995, we have been supplying composite doors and uPVC panels for trade customers for well over 20 years. Our products are manufactured to meet the highest quality all supplied within a lead time of ten working days. For more information, contact us today.

Confidence at an all-time low, crippled by anxiety and fighting a never-ending battle with the voice in the back of your head, that is telling you that you're a failure, you're not good enough and filling you with self-doubt?
Does it feel like your past defines you? That no matter what you just can't let go? There's so many things you wish you could be doing, but instead time is passing you by? As you're stuck in a low and negative state of mind, feeling lost, neglected and invisible to the world, wanting nothing more than to be the person you once were again?
How would it feel to take back control?
To silence the voice in the back of your head, get rid of the self-doubt, break the control food has over you and finally feel worthwhile?
To stop settling, holding yourself back in all areas of your life? Build stronger relationships, move forward in your career, and not just accept, but love yourself for who you are?
What if you could achieve your dreams, unlock your full potential and finally become the person that deep down you always wanted to be?
Focusing on you, your thoughts and the way you think and feel about yourself, and getting a shift that puts you back in control of your life.
By the end of this programme you will have all the confidence to finally live the life you've always wanted, as you let go of the past, overcome the beliefs that are holding you back and finally find happiness within yourself.
You'll be able to go out, meet new people, push yourself to try new things and stop holding yourself back, as you empower yourself to wake up everyday with a reason to feel alive.
Reconstruct a Better You is not about giving you more information, there's enough of that out there already.
Instead this is about guiding you every step of the way, building the entire journey around you and helping you make and implement lasting changes in all areas of your life.
And as part of this journey and beyond you'll be kept consistent and accountable every step of the way, as you join a team of women so that you don't have to face this on your own.
By reversing the thoughts and stories in her head, Andrea was able to find herself again, gaining the confidence to create the future she always wanted. She was able to face her fears, stop locking herself away, advance in her career, move on from her marriage, lost over 77 pounds and even started dating again!
Debbie had spent most of her life bouncing around from one diet to another, food controlled her life and she had settled for the life she felt she had to live. She was 'alive', but she wasn't living. Now she is in control the person she wants to be, is a better role model for her family, and finally happy within herself.
Dawn was able to stop feeling negative about herself, accept herself for who she was and finally start letting go of a past of abuse that was still affecting her today. She gained a confidence she never had before and was finally able to start living for herself.
Even though she was struggling with MS, Jill found the strength to take back control of her life. She pushed limits she never thought she could push, stopped walking with a stick, gained better balance, improved her sleep, energy levels and changed how she felt about the future she could have.
You can read their stories in their words at the bottom of this page.
You can join our team and get started using the buttons below, book a transformation call to discuss whether this is right for you or keep scrolling to find out more about the programme.
The programme is broken down into different phases, with each phase having a series of videos and tasks to continue building on your journey. You can move forward at your own pace, basing everything around you, your goals and the changes you want to make.
You'll join a team of likeminded women in our community Facebook group, where you'll be supported, kept accountable and consistent every step of the way.
In here you'll get access to Byron for ongoing support during and beyond your time on the programme, get to take part in weekly challenges, cooking tasks, check ins and other team based activities, so that you know you are never alone.
The first step is all about empowering yourself to take back control of your life, shifting your mindset and helping you get clear on the person you want to become.
Here you will build the foundation on which everything else will thrive, regain your confidence in who you are and unlock your internal motivation.
You'll start focusing on fuelling your body with what it needs, revitalising how you feel mentally, physically and emotionally.
Now that you are clear on the person you want to become, here you will start tailoring your journey around you. You'll set your own goals, put together a plan to move forward in all areas of your life, find ways to get round the barrier of time and step by step start moving towards the person you want to become.
You'll break it down into small steps, that aren't daunting, overwhelming, or making your journey anymore stressful than it needs to be.
Your past doesn't have to define your future and here you will uncover how to let go of what's happened, stop blaming yourself and overcome the beliefs and fears that are holding you back.
You'll learn to accept yourself for who you are, seeing that you aren't a failure, you are good enough and that you deserve to be happy, as you start moving on with your life.
Here you will get to the core of why you eat the way you do, improving your relationships with food, becoming more mindful of your eating habits, finding what triggers comfort or emotional eating and getting a shift that breaks the control food has over you.
You'll work out why you have struggled with what you ate in the past and how to break the cycle you've got stuck in.
A big part of improving your health and finding your inner happiness is balance, which is why the final step is all about making sure you aren't burning the candle at both ends, teaching you how to manage stress, improve sleep and deal with conflict.
As part of this programme you will also get LIFETIME access to our Facebook community, where you'll join a team of like minded women on similar journeys.
Here you'll be kept consistent and accountable every step of the way, as you can share you story, get support, make friends, share recipes and have access to Byron for any questions or assistance that you need.
You'll also get to take part in weekly challenges, check-ins, team tasks and other activities to keep you on track and enjoy the journey.

'Fish Groceries' represents nature and its wonderful ability to supply the demand. However, just like birds run out of that supply, if they keep fishing in the same spot, so will we.
My name is Rana Adamchick, and I was born and raised in New York. I originally started out as an apprentice to a painting contractor, where I learned to use color and shadows to accentuate my work. Eventually, I opened my own contracting business, located in California. Later, I began painting on canvas, and doing photography work for others. During the course of my lifetime, I gave birth to 5 beautiful children, and with each child my life altered. I guess you could say that each child made me look at life in a little different way. I would see things that my children would point out, all the time. Sometimes, they would notice good, sometimes bizarre and yet, other times -- bad things...but everyone of them was always interesting....
Our return policy is very simple:
If you're not happy with a purchase that you made on FineArtAmerica.com, for any reason, you can return it to us within 30 days of the order date. As soon as it arrives, we'll issue a full refund for the entire purchase price. Please note - Fine Art America does not reimburse the outgoing or return shipping charges unless the return is due to a defect in quality.

Paddy Power!
Just a quick update - as you know Paddy has had a lot of problems lately with his eye - he had an ulcer that would not heal. So he had to go back to have his eye operated on at the Animal Health Trust - we did not want him to be in pain all the time and this was the only option. Here is a picture of him with his eye doctor Marian
She was a very nice doctor and she was very patient with D and C. D kept asking a lot of questions, sending emails and calling - but the doctors understood that she was worried for Paddy and wanted to make sure everything was ok. But why worry? Paddy is a tough little boy and with all the support of family and friends, he has made a full recovery! No more pain!
We are participating in Jake and Fergi's 2nd Annual Worldwide moment - because Life is made of a lot of tiny miracles and we believe that if we all get together - we can make a difference. The power of the paw has helped Paddy in the past and we know it can help other furries and their humans
We will be participating - hope you will too.
Lots of licks

Dawgs 10 -- Florida Gators Forty-Nine! Holy crap. It's the worst loss of CMR's head coaching career. We're standing in the ashes of sky high expectations, feeling bad about possibly going 11-2...wouldn't be so bad if the only two good teams we played this we hadn't dismantled us so badly. We've been outscored 66-7 in two halves of those two games....
It's bad. We're not going totally negative as you might expect but we sure aren't brimming with excitment either...

Former German foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier has been elected President by a Parliamentary Assembly. The Social Democrat, 61, is one of Germany's most popular politicians.
Mr Steinmeier was chosen by the Federal Assembly meeting in Parliament in Berlin. He won 931 out of 1,260 votes.
Lawmakers and representatives from various social fields delegated by Germany's 16 states are represented in the assembly.
The post is largely ceremonial, but the president represents Germany abroad and is seen as carrying moral weight. Electors include Joachim Loew, the national football coach, and Olivia Jones, a colourful drag queen sent to vote by the Green Party in Lower Saxony. Mr Steinmeier, who takes up the job on 19 March, held the post of foreign minister twice for a total of eight years. Steinmeier replaces current President, Joachim Gauck.
In 2009, he stood unsuccessfully against Mrs Merkel in the federal election. Mr Steinmeier is seen as straight-talking, and as foreign minister was widely respected for taking a strong stance on issues important to German voters.Many expect he will work to support Germany's reputation as global defender of tolerant liberal values.

Dunlop Jazz III : la opinión de moosers (content in English)
The Dunlop Jazz 3 guitar picks, are a smaller brand of picks that happen to be my favorite size. Since they discontinued the Everly Jazz Star III picks, I have been playing with the Dunlop Jazz 3s. They are very similar in their feel, the only difference being that the Everly picks have a little star in the middle of them. I've definitely adapted to using the Dunlop Jazz 3s very quickly as they have a great feel and are easy to play with. I don't have the biggest hands in the world, so having a small pick is a real necessity for me. I like it to be a slight extension of my finger, just sticking out enough to strike the string of the guitar. Not only are they the perfect size for me, but they are also the right amount of sturdiness, as they aren't at all flimsy. At the same time, they also aren't too heavy and thick. While I could do it if I had to, I really don't like playing with any other style of pick other than the Jazz ones. Perhaps it is because I've gotten really used to it, but for me there is no better pick. While I do wish that they still made the Everly Jazz IIIs, the Dunlop Jazz 3s are really a fine substitute and I don't see myself playing with any other pick anytime soon. While these aren't the most readily available picks, you can definitely find them in guitar shops that have a larger selection of picks, and certainly online. They are priced the same as just about any other guitar pick, so price should really not be a consideration when it comes to picks. While I can't say that I would necessarily recommend them, as picks are a very personal thing, I will say that a lot of players find these very easy to play with, myself included. If you're thinking that the Dunlop Jazz 3 picks might be a good fit for you, I'd highly encourage you to try playing with one when you get a chance, as they have really worked out great for me...

(TNS) -- For students in middle school, turning 13 is a significant moment for their internet experience — it's the age many kids can start signing up for Gmail, or get accounts on social media sites like Facebook, Tumblr and Instagram.
For the Digital Literacy class at Ledyard Middle School in Gales Ferry, Conn., students learn that also means something else: the exponential growth of their personal data and social media posts, preserved online forever.
That is one of several elements of students' relationship with digital technology that Ledyard Middle School's new seventh-grade Digital Literacy class addresses.
Taught by engineer-turned-educator James Moffett, the semester-long course explores everything from being a good citizen on the internet, to building critical-thinking tools for students to analyze their media consumption.
Moffett comes from the Journalism and Media Academy in Hartford, where he taught courses on technology and the media.
He built a curriculum for the class at Ledyard Middle School that teaches students how to use the internet academically, and how to apply the technology in other classes.
"I wanted to focus in this age group on internet safety and internet privacy," Moffett said.
He added that while the students are using the technology, they may not be using it effectively or appropriately because they haven't been instructed about how to do it properly.
When talking about a student's digital footprint, Moffett said, some don't realize social media is scrutinized long after it's posted, and that they could potentially lose out on job opportunities and college offers.
"A lot of them cut back on things that they posted, knowing that, down the road, it could be questionable (and) called out on it," he said.
For students like Blake McLeod, that's something he keeps in the back of his mind now as he surfs videos online or plays MineCraft.
"I never knew you left digital footprints anywhere," McLeod said. "If I go on a website, it's going to stay there forever, or if I send an email, it's always going to be there ... (you can't) do anything stupid."
While these issues can be intimidating, for the most part students learn skills to become better communicators.
The course is broken up into two sections: at first, they explore creative rights and learn how to use collaborative technology like Google Slides and Docs, which students like Trinidy Acevedo have applied to other classes, using her experience with Google Drawing to make a diagram on Peruvian hairless dogs.
The second half is where Moffett lets the students work on a number of creative projects — making things like polls, songs and advertisements, or participating in the nationwide "Hour of Code" by solving puzzles that resemble computer programs.
"I like the creation part (and) giving them a voice; even though they're only 12 and 13, they have something to say ... it's like the closest they have to a superpower," Moffett said.
In the past few weeks, Moffett has been working with students in his Colonel Block class to produce an introductory video for rising seventh-grade students: recording interviews with teachers and students about the middle school experience, spliced between footage they gather of common scenes across the school.
They used creative camera angles, like mounting the camera on a tripod above the students in the hall as they poured out of classes.
The video production element has motivated students like Acevedo, an avid YouTube fan, to think about how videos are edited.
She aspires to have her own YouTube channel and make her own videos, and she said that the experience of producing videos has taught her a lot.
"When you're a YouTuber, you have to edit a lot and that's going to be extremely hard," she said. "I feel like some of the stuff he's teaching us will definitely help with editing because that stuff takes forever."

Paper bags have always been a popular choice for a more ecologically friendly packaging option. The recyclable aspect of paper makes these bags an attractive selection to environmentally conscious consumers. The available biodegradable PLA (polylactic acid) liner on some of these paper bags creates a completely green product that is both economical and effective. The pasted bottom of these paper bags means that the layers are adhered together which does not provide for an air tight seal. However, these bags are a popular option for take home products or fresh products that will be consumed quickly. The square bottom construction allows the bags to stand securely on store shelves and the factory applied tin ties give them a resealable feature that is a valuable marketing tool. Windows are also offered, allowing customers the opportunity to view products prior to purchase.
Snack Foods, Bakery Products, Confectioneries, Coffee, Tea, Granola and various other applications.
Packaging supplier of coffee bags, foil bags, paper bags, stand up pouches, flat pouches and box bottom bags, flat bottom bags, block bottom bags for all your flexible packaging needs. Our bags can package coffee, food, snacks, pet treats and various other products.

How do I remove the lines where my furniture set?
Some people like to rearrange their furniture for the holidays, or change of seasons, or maybe they are changing furniture often. If the furniture sits on top of certain types of carpet it may leave indentions when you go to rearrange. Then you may wonder how to remove the lines where the previous furniture set?
Will a carpet cleaning remove the indentations in the carpet?
No, cleaning the carpet will not always remove the indentions in the carpet. Sometimes on a nylon carpet the fibers will "pop" back up with a good vacuuming or a good carpet cleaning. There are times though that this will not be the case. A carpet made with polypropylene (olefin) carpet where heavy furniture sat on it for an extended period of time will not bounce back like you would think it would. These fibers will crush especially in a plush style carpet and will stay that way from then on.
What are other characteristics of polypropylene (olefin)?
A large amount of polypropylene (olefin) carpet is used in commercial applications today, usually as a looped or berber style carpet. Polypropylene (olefin) has a low melting point so when things get drug over them the friction can create a burn or melting of the fibers that is irreversible. This can happen in a commercial setting when heavy objects are drug across the carpet, when wheels on carts do not roll as designed, by improperly functioning vacuum cleaners, and other related things. This fiber is also strong and abrasion resistant but lightweight. It even floats in water and is often used for water ski ropes. The fiber is also very stain resistant since the dye is added to it while it is in a liquid state before it is extruded into a fiber.

Six or more students were murdered and 23 others were harmed, after a school bus hit a home in Chattanooga, TN, authorities said. Neal Pinkston, District Attorney for Hamilton County told media outlets that five individuals were killed at the scene and one passed away at a hospital. Pinkston's office reported that there were several students in critical condition.
Firemen said there were roughly 35 students on the bus when the accident happened at around 3:30 p.m. Fred Fletcher, chief of Chattanooga police said 23 patients had been transported to a hospital nearby, and the bus driver has been cooperating with police. The reason for the mishap was not promptly clear, but rather Fletcher said that speed might be "one contributing factor."
Fletcher stated, "Our hearts go out, as well as the hearts of all these people behind me, to the families, the neighborhood, the school, for all the people involved in this, we assure you we are doing everything we can." He called the accident, "every public safety professional's worst nightmare."
The bus was transporting the students from Woodmore Elementary, which were in kindergarten through fifth grade. Chattanooga police Assistant Chief Tracy Arnold said authorities would not disclose the students that died or their ages, until their guardians were informed. A neighbor told WTVC that kids were exiting out of the roof hatch, after the crash. According to Chattanooga Times Free Press, two students were seen lying on stretchers in a front yard, getting treatment from the first responders.
The paper reported that a few kids walked away from the crash with only cuts. Other media outlets reported it took around two hours to get the last students off the bus. TV slots reported that individuals organized to donate blood, while others had to schedule an appointment for the following day.

Virtual phone number is used by many businesses these days to spread their business among all over world. Telecommunication is the best way to spreading your business. But, using calls for roaming and international calls will give a very big shock to business entrepreneurs and may be they are not able to such high amount bills. For helping them, a service has come into existence which is known as virtual phone number. When you called to any of your friend, relatives or clients to any part of the world, call charges will be deducted as local call charges.
Because you can get virtual phone number registered as that local area. For using virtual phone number on your existing system, you do not need to purchase any new mobile. This virtual phone number will work on your existing smart phone. System that provides virtual phone number facility is called virtual phone system and also called virtual private branch exchange (VPBX). So, buy virtual phone number from one of best service provider.
These virtual phone numbers don't have any extra charges as they are not directly associated to phone line therefore they is no account of the activities happening with the respective number. There are number of companies who provide you this facility. But, choosing best service provider is too much difficult task. Some of service providers need to install some software into your phone while some service providers give you large business plans. It is only depends on you what you want to do. The cost of such phone number is cheap and affordable. The main aspect of these companies is to make sure that their clients get complete satisfaction. Virtual phone numbers have many uses and applications.
Various Uses:
Some of the applications and uses are:
- Businesses: in business, any company in one country can have a number in another country without paying the foreign exchange line. This is mostly used in call centers of many different time zones of various countries. This provides efficient service throughout the day.
- Marketing: here the companies use many different numbers which the client can call with particular queries about respective topics on that particular number. This also helps the companies in keeping track of the number of people that each sector attracts, thus helping them, in increasing their profits by using helpful techniques.
- Virtual services: the virtual phone numbers can also be used for virtual services.
- Individuals: as an individual, everyone would want to be able to make calls to their friends and family from different countries at cheaper rates and talk for a longer time. Same for their parents and friends who would like to make international calls to their children at local prices. This is possible through the virtual phone number system.
- Specific businesses: for specific businesses in companies or for individuals, calling cards or call back is useful. This allows the company to call the client back or in case of conference calls which are work related, the calling party can call back the other party for company related work.

Where am I?
For those who don't know, I left U.S. Cellular recently to take a job at a company called Futurevision. They contract out jobs from Dish Network to do satellite installations and maintenance, and home theater installs. So I am a cable guy. More specifically a satellite guy. I'm really diggin' it so far, I've been traveling around with another more experienced installer and helping out. He's been showing me the ropes as we travel across Chicagoland. In the past two weeks I've been in the most immaculate and spotless homes, to the most dirty, cat piss, stank-ass, laundry on the floor homes around. I had an early day today which has been my first opportunity in a while to update. After the past four years spent behind a desk, I'm absolutely loving being outside, stompin' through mud, hangin on rooftops and crawling through crawlspaces and attics. Soon I'll get my own truck and equipment and I'll be unleashed on the world. God help you all.

Hello guys and girls! Just a quick blog to say i've done a silly little video from when we went to London for the marathon! It's about 6 minutes long and just goes from the exhibition centre to the actual race where we and my girlies were dressed up in Hawiiaan gear and trotting around London to try and see Roy running! It's quite fun so check it out by clicking the image!!
Haven't really done much this weekend. Me and Roy just eating and dossing as usual. Getting back on the running starting from Monday for certain…
I'll be updating the blog properly tomorrow so keep checking back! xo
Podcast #1!

Wednesday 13th May 2009
So, here it is! The first ever podcast Podcast # 1! I'm reeeally excited and nervous that it's finally going on the web. I've been going on about doing it for about a month now so feels great to have recorded the first. It's me, Becky and our two great girl friends Kate & Emily who wanted to get involved too. It's very giggly but we were nervous! We've had quite a few boys who have expressed an interest and subscribed ready to download so i'm hoping they're not to disappointed at the lack of manly topics but it's something were gonna work on to try and make it a bit more man friendly, but equally with some girl gossip because my intention in the beginning was a girly style blog
My good boy pal Sammy (@samjbmason if your on Twitter – follow him!) has spent hours mixing it and adding the cute little music for it so i hope you guys like it! At times you can hear crunching but were working on improving it for coming weeks and it can only get better right!?
So for the next one we need your questions! Ask us anything. We want beauty tips and hints, style questions, questions if you need advice on anything, you can even ask us personal questions just whatever you want to talk about. Send them as comments on here, via emails (the address is in the contact us page) and on Twitter but make sure you put #syspod after your questions so i can find them really easy! for example: What's your favourite brand of chocolate? #syspod SIMPLE!
Right, so thats it! Listen away and let me know what you think!

Hello gang, last night was a bit of a joke. It's been a week since we recorded the podcast and i still haven't put it online. It's a pretty boring story but the software is basically not doing what it should be doing, and for some reason vista just doesn't like anything Audacity or Podcast related so I was up pretty late being a bit angry but then i used my brain and got things moving and finally managed to format it to MP3. It's now been sent to my friend Sam who is gonna do something special with it so hopefully it will get online any day now! Wahoo! Thanks for being so patient guys, had a lot of subscribers too so keep them coming! (Simply click the headphones on the right to head to the podcast, and subscribe either via itunes or email!)
My weekend was pretty hectic. I thought i had Toncilitus or something so felt pretty disgusting but on Saturday our friends Cafe Racer had a gig so we went a long to that and ended up getting pretty drunk in the middle of the afternoon at a very grungy dark pub (when it was gorgeous and pretty outside!) and it only took 4 pints of Strongbow before i was scoffing chinese buffet at 4pm and the rest is a disgusting blur. All i know is i got home at 6pm Sunday feeling very stinky indeed. Ugh.
Feeling better this week and have managed to sell lots of shoes that were clogging up my bedroom floor on eBay. (How good am i!?) It only happened because i bought some shoes from Topshop.com that were amazing on the basis i sold some to make up the money but they didn't fit anyway so now i'm having to sell the lot. Bonus!
I've done a cute little 6 minute video from the Marathon weekend if you fancy a bit of a watch. It's a bit cheesy and silly but you might enjoy that kind of thing so i'll upload that at some point!
Pointless mini blog really, just touching base! What have you guys been up too? Tell me a story xox
Happy 21st Birthday Becky!
Posted May 5, 2009on:
Tuesday 5th May 2009
So because Bexster is going to be on holiday when her actual birthday is, she organised a lovely celebration on Friday night by going for a curry and then heading on into town to get a little bit tipsy and sweaty by dancing the night away! Wahoo! Because my laptop is being a bit of a dweeb and not letting me upload some photos of the night i thought i'd upload one of Becky's birthday surprise from last year instead!
Last weekend was pretty hectic.If you didn't know already, it was the London Marathon on the 26th and my boyfriend Roy was running it so we stayed with my best friend Harriet for the weekend.The marathon was SO exciting. I'm so proud of Roy for doing it. My other best friend Lucy's family had a brilliant hawaiian party at their house right where one group of the marathon runners ran past and it was SO brilliant! We were cheering 1000's of runners on wearing rediculous coconut bras and grass skirts but having SUCH a fun time. (I recorded lots of little videos i'm gonna upload as soon as they're edited!)
So, other than the above, my weekend wasn't really up to much else. On Saturday i added some buttons at the top of the blog for Twitter, Subscribing & the Podcast so it looks a bit fancier now! (LOVE how cute the Twitter bird is!) If you haven't yet subscribed, give it a little tickle!Were recording the podcast TONIGHT(SO excited!) I bought some Rose, Pringles & Popcorn for us all to feel a little bit more relaxed. I'm hoping as soon as we get over the fact it's recording, we'll let loose a little bit and it'l be lots of fun! You can subscribe to that too by clicking the little headphones button above!

Today's college grads face a new set of challenges brought on by a sluggish job market, changing technology, and staggering amounts of debt. The rules have changed since their parents were in school, leaving young adults at a loss for advice that addresses their immediate concerns as well as the big-picture questions with which each generation of young adults must contend.
Life coach Ken Jedding has spent the past decade talking one-on-one with college students and graduates across the country in his workshops and lectures. In Higher Education, he provides a fresh, modern guidebook to postcollegiate life that addresses the issues and concerns he hears voiced most often. From the lofty What is my purpose in life? to the practical How can I land my dream job? to the increasingly common (if somewhat terrifying) How did I wind up back in my parents' house?, Jedding's valuable insight, wisdom, and humor provide a much-needed roadmap for the journey that is only just beginning.
Received from the publicist for review.
This one gets four stars. The author's straightforward style makes you feel that he genuinely cares about his readers and wants them to be their best. That sincerity lends a quality rarely found in in career advice books. This is truly a valuable resource for recent grads in that it answers the very real questions they have about jobs,
careers, etc. This is highly recommended and would make an excellent gift for the college grad in your life.
★★★★☆ = Really Liked It

Iraq War veteran and fmr. US Army sniper Garett Reppenhagen argued that the film "American Sniper is "from a very particular point of view" on Wednesday's "The Last Word" on MSNBC.
"I think the major thing that we have to put into context with this film is that it's from a very particular point of view. Whether it's the true story of Chris Kyle or whether it wasn't isn't really my main concern, it's the fact that the American public has a responsibility to take in as much information as possible about this conflict to really fully understand it and understand the experiences of the people who lived it, like myself, and the veterans coming home that are going through a lot and not exactly what Chris Kyle went through. Many of them are going through other things, as well. So, there's a larger context and there's a lot more dynamics at play here, and in the article, I mentioned it's like looking through that sniper scope. Chris Kyle says in the movie, or at least the character says, you've got to keep both eyes open to see the whole battlefield. And I think that's the analogy I'm trying to make for the American audience, is just to keep both eyes open and be aware of what's going on in the larger context" he stated.
Reppenhagen then reacted to a scene in the film where Kyle's wife questions whether he's really protecting the family by fighting in Iraq, stating that he agreed with host Lawrence O'Donnell that the "thrust" of the rest of the movie "is on the sniper's side in that argument" and that "there's no real exploration of that question [of whether Kyle is actually keeping his family safe]," adding "when you're in Iraq and Afghanistan or any combat zone, you're sacrificing a lot. Whether it's your own personal life, the lives of your friends, your physical health, your mental health, your sanity, your soul in some aspects, when you're sacrificing so much, the why you're sacrificing becomes very important. And, you know, I think when you go to war with ambiguous causes like we did in Iraq, for me it was personally difficult, as that unraveled, when we found out there were no weapons of mass destruction, that there were no ties to 9/11, we basically opened the door for al Qaeda to come to Iraq and set up shop. [The] conduct of the war started diminishing with events Abu Ghraib and other atrocities, it became a little difficult to accept the facts and I had a lot of friends, professional soldiers that I worked with every day that I respect the hell out of that had the same opinions that the character in the movie does and it's one of the ways that we have to protect ourselves to be able to go out there every day, and leave the gate, and do a mission is to believe you're doing the right thing. And it's soul-hurting and there's definitely moral injury involved when you start to lose that idea and I think that's the dangers of the American public not holding our decision-makers accountable and making sure we don't send our soldiers to war when all peaceful solutions haven't been exhausted."
Later, Reppenhagen says that while the film does "tease" the opinions of those who are against the Iraq War, it doesn't develop these thoughts fully.

WASHINGTON — If Mitchell Glassman visited your town sometime in the past 35 years, it probably wasn't for a good reason.
As a veteran of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.'s bank-seizure arm, Glassman has been involved in nearly 1,000 takeovers, more than three times the current total resulting from the financial crisis.
He started as a roving agent, traveling between failed banks with nothing more than what would fit in a Toyota station wagon. As he climbed the agency's ladder, he saw technology transform how failed-bank deals — once a manual process involving snail mail — were done. Through it all, he was attuned to the not-always-warm reception a closing team could receive.
"There were communities where there had been multiple failures, where obviously our coming had the look of the grim reaper," said Glassman, who retired Dec. 3 as head of the FDIC division of resolutions and receiverships.
But in his 10 years as division director, no period was as intense as from late 2008 to now. In the first eight years of the millennium, 32 institutions failed. Since then, 314 have done so.
"I was driving around in a nice, easygoing Chevrolet. When the middle of 2008 hit, I thought I was in a Nascar doing 160 miles an hour," Glassman said.
It was not just the weekly routine of resolving banks that put his job in overdrive. Much as it always has in a crisis, the agency has shouldered an enormous weight of criticism — for seizing certain banks, for not seizing others and for picking the winners and the losers in its auctions.
"It's kind of like playing musical chairs. If you're the one that's left standing, it doesn't matter whether the music stopped," he said. "The fact is, you're the one who has got to take the criticism. You're the one who's got to answer for what's going on."
Glassman was among the regulators pilloried at a House hearing in January led by Chicago-area lawmakers on the closure of Park National Bank, which was loved in its community. The legislators, as well as spectators, complained that regulators were too quick to close community institutions while the industry's largest banks were bailed out.
The FDIC's objective is to seal a deal with an inheritor bank that over time can placate community concerns. In Park National's case, he said, the agency almost did not find a buyer, meaning depositors could potentially have lost money.
"What we were hearing, really, was the fear factor of whether or not the new institution was going to still have a connection with that community," he said. "We felt good that we found another buyer and … the depositors were taken care of. But … I think we're always going to be doubted.
"We are obligated to follow the law. I'm sorry for any bank that fails. The best failure is no failure."
Before being called on to answer such questions, Glassman was just a man on the beat. After a short stint at a bank owned by his family, he found part-time work at a temporary bridge bank established by the FDIC to resolve a failed institution's deposits. That led to his being recruited to become what then was called a "liquidator-at-large." The first failure he handled was in 1975 at the Clearing Bank, outside of Chicago.
"I was a low man on the totem pole," Glassman said. "We didn't have big regional offices like today. Where you were put is where you called home. I didn't stay in Chicago for more than six or seven weeks and had to pull up stakes and move to Milwaukee. You didn't know when you were going to be called."
The regimen took a toll on his family, he said.
"I still feel guilty for the missed birthdays and the first tooth. I had to leave my poor wife in San Diego with a newborn while I went off on assignment," he said. "There were many times you missed out on things. There were also many times where you busted your butt to get back home."
Glassman rose through the ranks to become the division director's deputy and then its chief.
As a senior official, his impact on the FDIC was perhaps felt most in an enthusiasm for technology. Glassman was one of the first to use a cell phone and a BlackBerry, and his example often led to a new gadget's being used widely at the agency.
"Before we had cell phones, there were times that, in order to let the closing team know that it was OK to come into a bank, they had to stand by a pay phone and keep people off of it so we could have the means to call them and say, 'It's time.' "
And after decades of a paper-based system of selling failed banks, Glassman spearheaded the agency's use of Web-based auctions around the turn of the millenium. Rather than potential buyers flying around the country to examine targets, and submitting bids through overnight mail, bankers could participate in auctions with the click of a mouse.
Yet that system has also been the subject of criticism. Not only have market participants complained about the types of deals the agency selects, and the types of buyers it prefers, but many have said the agency should disclose more about the bidding process, including a quicker release of losing bids to the public.
"We've got the appropriate balance of protecting the people who do participate in the process" and providing information to "those who still want to know what the value[s] are of the winning and losing bids," Glassman said.
At the outset of the wave of failures, the resolution division had about 200 employees; it had to rely on temporarily hiring retirees as well as contractors. Today, with the additions of satellite offices in California, Illinois and Florida, along with new staffing at the division's headquarters in Dallas, the head count has ballooned to 2,200.
Though Glassman said he never doubted the agency's ability to respond, he said the division was spread thin early in the crisis. "I was very concerned about people burning out," he said.
Many of the division's new hires have known all along that their appointments are temporary. This, Glassman said, will help the agency unwind operations smoothly as failures stabilize. The slowdown phase after the savings and loan crisis in the early '90s was not easy; a painful downsizing left morale issues for years.
"When it's time to wind down, we're hoping that a lot of our employees will eventually get back into the industries they came from," he said.
For Glassman personally, the wind-down has already begun. Though he is considering taking a private-sector job, he said he expects his Friday nights to be considerably quieter.
"My stress level will obviously go down; I may actually try to get to bed a little bit earlier," he said. "I'll probably get hooked up with the same subscription service that any other mortal or reporter can get ahold of. I'll probably still track it."
