Non-vascular Stents Market: Biodegradable Stents to Emerge as Trend
The growing expenditure on healthcare in developing nations and favorable reimbursement policies are expected to drive the demand for non-vascular stents. The growing investments on research and development are expected to help improve the designs and innovation in base materials. This will also help push the growth of the market. In addition to this, the demand for minimally invasive procedures is bolstering the growth of the global non-vascular stents market. According to a recent report by Transparency Market Research (TMR), the global non-vascular stents market will expand at a CAGR of 5.0% from 2017 to 2025. The market will rise from US$475.0 mn in 2016 to reach a value of US$730.5 mn by 2025.
Given below are some of the key questions answered by TMR expert analysts regarding the non-vascular stents market:
Q. What are the key factors fueling the growth of the global non-vascular stents market?
The growing instances of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on account of lung cancer, smoking, exposure to harmful chemicals, and tracheobronchial malacia are fueling the growth of the non-vascular stents market across the globe. The increasing occurrences of colorectal cancer and diseases of the gall stone will help boost the demand for gastroenterology stents. The prevalence of kidney stones among people is increasing and this help drive the demand for urology stents. In addition to this, the benign prostatic hyperplasia among geriatric population will also drive the demand for these stents. Growing expenditure on healthcare in developing nations will also help the market to grow.
Q. Which regions will prove to be lucrative in the years to come?
North America is currently leading in the non-vascular stents market. The high expenditure in healthcare infrastructure and large pool of patients suffering from obstructive diseases are helping the North American non-vascular stents market. The favorable medical reimbursement policies by private companies as well as by governments are also aiding the growth of the market in the region. It is estimated that the revenue generated by North America would reach US$308.1 mn by 2025.
Obtain Report Details: http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/non-vascular-stents-market.html
Europe is anticipated to be the second most lucrative regional segment within the non-vascular stents market. However, it is Asia Pacific which will leave behind all other regions in terms of fastest growth rate. Asia Pacific is projected to exhibit a 5.4% CAGR between 2017 and 2025. Increased allocations for healthcare and growing number of hospitals and day care surgery centers in countries such as China and India are two factors mainly estimated to be behind the fast paced growth of Asia Pacific.
Q. What are the recent developments in the field?
The introduction of bioabsorbable scaffolds and biodegradable polymers will propel the use of stents in urological, gastrointestinal, pulmonary, and biliary strictures. The negative and side effects of using durable polymer stents are eliminated in these stents and this is anticipated to propel the demand for these stents. Advancements in technology have helped in the development of stent technology, material, and design. This has led to the introduction of specially designed stents which can be used for particular conditions. For instance, poly lactic acid-glycolic acid, poly acryl amine, and poly capro-lactone are some of the newly designed stent materials, which are biodegradable and eliminate the need for stent removal.

Multiple Severe Food Allergies and Our School-Age Child
By Nancy Berman, AAIA member, Montreal, Quebec
When my son Ben started kindergarten five years ago, I was pleased that an allergy protocol was already in place at his school. Students were not permitted to bring to school food items containing peanuts, the nurse was informed concerning allergic children, an extra epi-pen and recent photo of the child were kept in the staff lounge, and all staff were trained in emergency treatment of anaphylaxis. However, although the protocol was reassuring, given Ben's potentially life-threatening allergy to peanuts, it did very little to address his other potentially life-threatening allergies to dairy products, tree nuts, eggs, and sesame seeds.
While I was grateful that I did not have to worry too much about exposure to peanuts, I knew that there would be no way to ban the other items on the list, especially milk. Ben's allergy to milk is at least as serious as his allergy to peanuts (perhaps even more so), yet I knew that every child in the lunch room would receive a carton of milk at every lunch. I also knew that I could not bring him home for lunch, as I work, and that I did not want him to eat alone (in the Principal's office, for example) every day. With these factors in mind, I approached the situation as I had always approached Ben's multiple food allergies: rather than undertaking the impossible task of trying to guarantee an allergen-free environment, I decided to focus on educating Ben, part of my ongoing mission to prepare him for life in a world full of "dangerous" food items. My aim has always been to foster extreme caution, but not fear (I worry enough for the two of us!). Now, as he heads into grade 5, I know that he will not eat anything unless he is completely certain that it is safe. This doesn't mean that accidents can't happen, but at least I know that he has in large part taken responsibility for his own safety.
Needless to say, I do my utmost to reduce any chance of exposure, especially to the dreaded, spillable, ubiquitous milk. For Ben's first three years in elementary school, he ate in the same room as his classmates, but at a desk that was separated from the others. Although not ideal from a social perspective, it seemed a good compromise, and he felt safe while still being within talking distance of his friends. By grade three he was allowed to sit at the end of a row of desks, next to one or another of his good friends. Indeed, the protective and understanding attitudes of his friends has been one of the (admittedly few) positive aspects of our situation. In grade four, Ben started sitting where and with whom he wanted. I know that if even a drop of milk or yogurt touches his sandwich, he will actually go hungry rather than risk eating it; to me this is reassuring enough to allow him to enjoy eating with his friends. And as it turns out, he's never really "gone hungry," although once or twice he has refused to eat his sandwich because he was worried it was contaminated. For extra insurance, every fall I leave a frozen, microwaveable meal in the school freezer to be reheated and served if necessary.
Of course there are still days when he feels left out: once a month most kids (including my younger child) participate in pizza day and sub day, and several times throughout the year the grade six students sell frozen yogurt. On these days I do my best to send a substitute: pizza made with soy-based cheese, homemade turkey subs, homemade tofu-based frozen yogurt in a thermos, and so on. (And here I must add that without my husband's experimental, adventurous attitude towards cooking, and willingness to put in the hours late in the evening, I'd never be able to keep up.) I'm never sure if these treats only draw more attention to his food allergies, but he seems to like them, and he tolerates with great patience the questions and curiosity of his peers.
Just as scary as starting school were the early invitations to other kids' houses, and the later invitations to sleepovers. Although now Ben has a close circle of friends whose parents are well-informed about his allergies, and who tolerate my insistence on reading all ingredient labels and even supplying Ben's food, new situations often provoke massive panic on my part. But again, I try my utmost not to transfer these fears to Ben; I know that he won't eat anything he's unsure of without first calling me and reading me the ingredient list (a challenging feat in and of itself). He usually insists on bringing his own lunchbox to birthday parties rather than inconveniencing the hosts or taking the risk of eating food that may be contaminated.
I think the social implications of always being different, of rarely being able to partake of the same food as everyone else, are important and underestimated when considering food allergies. That being said, the only way to guarantee as safe an environment as possible, while not encouraging a state of fear in the child with food allergies, is to educate the child from as young an age as possible (my son used to pretend to read labels at the age of 2!), to encourage them to do what they need to do to feel safe but not scared (even if that means bringing a lunch box to Pizza Hut), and to make sure that their food allergies interfere as little as possible in their social life and indeed their life in general.

Overall is average. Amenities are quite old. Gym and swimming pool services have to pay for it which is not fair. It is quite a distance from the BTS station and you have to walk about 10 minutes through a narrow road full of vehicles and mobile food stalls. It is quite unpleasant.

Just purchased a used Nissan NS8B 8hp two-stroke. Base on the cowling I'm guessing it's an early 2000 model. Going to call Tohatsu to confirm. Runs great with low hours (prop and lower end shows very little wear). Freshwater use only so very little corrosion.
Couple questions:
1. We need to lay it down for transport in our 5th wheel trailer. I thought I saw somewhere where it suggested laying it down with the front of the engine (pull start) pointing up/prop facing down/tiller up. Is that correct? If not, which way.
2. What would it take to boost output to 9.9 hp? Carb change?
3. Any special issues or concerns with this particular motor?
4. It's very difficult to find ethanol-free gas in AZ. Any problem using ethanol gas (10%) with this motor?
Thank you!

Website Template
Bütçe $30-100 USD
i need an .html template with a style sheet for a reworking of an old site. i have a logo, but i am not sure if it would translate into a new template well, so i may need a logo as well.
i'm interested in a clean style something like this:
[login to view URL]
where there is not a lot of deep color, and where the sides of the template are open and will blend into the background of the screen.
i also want some sort of "bar" that i can insert text into much like the header bars on this page:
[login to view URL]
the ones that say "launch services", "newsletter", etc. i like the rounded top corners on them.
the template should have two full width layers across the top:
> one for the logo and at least a 468x60 banner ad (perhaps a 728x90 would fit?)
> one as just a grayish nav bar where i can put navagation links and perhaps the old "bookmark our site" feature
the next layer:
> should have a left column that would support at least a 125x125 bannerAd (and will also hold the remaining navagation links), and a very wide right column where i can write a short description of the page
i can PM the URL of the current site to any interested parties, and i'll be glad to answer any questions.

How I Got My First 200 Email Subscribers in 30 Days
Building your email list is another task that you have to take down, on the long list of blogging task. Trust me this one is worth it, if you have not set up your email list yet then you should make that your next goal. An email list offers so many opportunities for you and your readers. The best part? It is entirely yours , which means you can do pretty much anything you would like with it. In today's post I share with you how I reached my first 200 email subscribers and the steps I took.
Haven't created a blog yet? What are you waiting for. Use this in depth guide to find out how; How to start a profitable blog in minutes. A year ago I invested in my own self-hosted WordPress blog with the intention of making passive income. Do you want to start a money-making blog? Use this link to get a 60% discount on your first hosting plan!

What is an Email List?
An email list is a just that, a list of your very own subscribers who you can send out weekly campaigns (emails) to. If you are blessed enough to be tech savvy you can use coding to set up your own email list. For those of us who are not so blessed with these skills there are many many email marketing websites to get you set up. During my research I came across both MailChimp and MailerLite. They are both perfect for beginner bloggers: with MailChimp you can take advantage of the FREE plan up until you hit 2,000 subscribers. With MailerLite it is FREE for your first 1,000 subscribers, but with the free plan you still have access to all the features including email automation and landing pages. I currently use MailerLite because I found it to be extremely simple and straight forward. Of course always do your own research, but you can easily switch over to a more manageable email marketing website if you have a change of heart.
Why Do I Need A Email List?
Many beginner bloggers think that setting up a email list is pointless when you first begin blogging, but if you have a blog (no matter how new) you need an email list. You will be selling your self short if you do not have an email list. A email list is extremely valuable, and the best part it is yours. You get to control what you send out, how often, and why. A email list creates the perfect chance for you to get to know your audience on a personal level and vice versa. Therefore creating a trustworthy relationship. If you ever decide to sell a product or service you already have a list of potential buyers.
How Do I Set Up My Mailing List?
Setting up your email list can be difficult, because there is so much that goes into it. If you are looking for one on one help to set up your email list,make sure to stay to the end of the post! I am offering one on one coaching sessions for setting up your email list currently! I would be very happy to assist you with the full process of setting up, creating opt-in offers, and showing you how to create your first email. You can also visit here to see the services I offer.
How I Reached my First 200 Subscribers.
Created a Opt-in
An opt-in is anything that you can give someone in exchange for their email address. An opt-in can be in the form of a:
– E-book
– Email course
– Mini eCourse
– Workbook
– Worksheets
– Video or tutorial
– PDF guides
– Printables
Here is an example of my first opt-in
Figure out what your readers want and deliver, your goal is to create value and help your readers in some way. Why should someone sign up for your email list? This is the question you should ask yourself when coming up with a free opt-in. You need to bring them some type of value or incentive. Offer a quick solution to a problem your readers may have. My first opt-in offer, is a PDF of a list of the best WordPress plugins to grow your brand. I knew this would be insightful and helpful because I see this question asked on Facebook almost every day.
So here is the break down, create a valuable opt-in, create a sign up list for your PDF/ worksheet/ guide etc create the sign up form, and got the web link for the form. Lastly add your sign up sheet to your blog, and advertise your freebie.
The Best Ways to Advertise Your Opt-in
- Advertise on Pinterest, create a graphic linking back to a landing page or specific post.
- Place opt-in on sidebar, footer, and inside of blog post. You can either place it at the beginning or end of every post. Make sure it is very clear to see and looks nice.
- Tweet about it, and post to your Instagram.
- Insert a pop-up before someone leaves your website.

Salisbury and surroundsRegion: Wiltshire and Somerset
Monuments: The Cathedral - Stonehenge and Old Sarum - Wilton House
Founded in 1220 when the old hilltop settlement of Old Sarum (well worth a visit if you have the time, its just a few miles down the road towards the city from Stonehenge) was abandoned. The citys main feature is its cathedral which has the tallest spire in England 404 feet. Built over a period of 38 years, it is approached through the Close which includes a school and theological college and various delightful residences, one of which is the retirement home of the former British Prime Minister Sir Edward Heath.
The town itself has a large array of half timbered buildings dating back to the 15th century which are still used as homes and inns today, in very much the same way they were at the time they were built.
Outside the city is the town of Wilton and Wilton House, the home of the Earl of Pembroke. Open to the public, features include the sumptuous Double Cube Room, designed by Inigo Jones, where Churchill and Eisenhower made wartime plans at a time when Wilton House served as headquarters of Southern Command during World War II.

Sneaking a call: Parliamentarians blasted for taking calls during sittings
Livern Barret, Gleaner Writer
KINGSTON, Jamaica:
Speaker of the House of Representatives Michael Peart today chastised Parliamentarians who take calls or allow their phones to ring while they are in the chamber.
Noting that there is an agreement to allow lawmakers to use their phones to send text messages, Peart said some members have been abusing this privilege.
As an example, he said he has noticed instances where legislators stop in the middle of their presentations to turn off their cell phones.
"I also see some members turn their backs to me and hide under the table (and talk on their phone). A not calling any names," Peart said during a meeting of the standing order committee of Parliament now underway at Gordon House.
Leader of Government business in the House, Phillip Paulwell agreed, calling it "disrespectful to the Speaker."
"In my presentation I will make that clear," Paulwell promised.

Around 1995, my friend Benny finally persuaded me to go with him to a swing dancing club in Hollywood. Convinced it would resemble an old folks' home, I fought the idea for a quite a while. We finally went, and ended up patronizing that club at least twice a week...for more than 4 years. That club was The Derby. While there were a few house bands who played some danceable music, there was one band that stood out. They called themselves Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. The band members all donned vintage suits and hats, and had such charisma and an infectious energy. To this day, when I hear the first six notes of "Go Daddy-O", I have to dance. So, a couple of months after becoming somewhat of a regular, somebody propped up a movie poster near the dance floor. I believe the film was called "Swingers." Within a few weeks of the film's release, there was a line around the block to get into the club. Things had changed completely. I now had to call ahead and have one of my bartender friends sneak me in the backdoor. This club, band and film created the swing scene in the 90's. Following the passing of the owner, and some financial hardships, The Derby sadly closed. What was once the coolest place to dance is now a Chase Bank.
Fast forward several years. I recently decided to shoot a series of images centered on musicians. I immediately thought of Glen Marhevka. He is the trumpet player for BBVD, and I figured he'd be game for a shoot. After months of messaging on the facebooks, we finally locked down a date to shoot. Naturally we shot under the overpass on Overland Blvd., just down the road from where they shot "The Wizard of Oz." Though I was not able to convince Glen to "trash the suit" in the L.A. river after the shoot, we shot everything I had visualized. I also got a free mini private concert. Not a bad way to spend one's morning. Here are a few of the resulting photographs.
For my fellow strobists out there, the lighting was kept rather simple. I balanced for the ambient (whether in the shade of the overpass, or in the direct sunlight), and filled in the shadows with a bare Alien Bee B800. When you're working alone, are slightly tilted, and have a breeze to contend with, your visions of putting up that 60-inch Octa go right out the proverbial window.
A few months ago, I was contacted to participate in a unique photography project. Backbones, a nonprofit organization focused on supporting survivors of spinal cord injuries, was organizing a traveling exhibit, portraying the stories of a handful of heroic survivors. The stories would be told by both photographs and written words. I, along with 20 other photographers across the country, embarked on photographing our respective survivors. My subject for the project was Ellen Stohl.
Aside from being the first woman with a disability to ever pose in Playboy Magazine, Ellen has an MS in counseling, she writes, lectures, and has been a life coach and advocate to others with physical challenges. As Ellen states in her bio,
"Beauty is something everyone wants to feel they possess, but society can make that a difficult task, especially if you have a disability. Since crushing my spinal cord in an automobile accident and being diagnosed with quadriplegia in 1982, I've had to actively question social standards of perfection to rediscover and recapture that sense of beauty for myself."
As I had no intention of trying to recreate images from 30 years ago, I was focused on visually documenting the Ellen Stohl of today. She is a mother and a wife, and I simply wished to show that side of her. As I am sure Ellen will tell you herself, her wheelchair does not define who she is.
For the purposes of this blog, I decided to focus on two images from our photography adventure. For our first image, I asked Ellen to station herself at the end of the hallway in her home. I liked the composition her reflection in the frames, and the way the hallway ends at her. However, because there was so little room, lighting was not that easy. At camera right there is a doorway to the kitchen, which has direct view of the glass doors to the backyard. Because I knew I would only be using strobes for this scenario, I had to block all natural light. So, I hung up some Duvoteen (black cloth) in the doorway, and jammed a small softbox directly to the left of Ellen. Ideally, I would have liked it more in front of her, but she was unwilling to remove any part of the wall. Our rim light is a strip bank, also just out of frame, at camera left. It is obviously spilling on to the bathroom door, but was aimed as much as possible to Ellen's shoulder, as one can see by the lit area on the right hallway wall. Our last light source was a strobe bouncing off the ceiling, adding a little fill, and giving some definition to the bookshelf.
Having had so much luck in the hallway, I decided to make things even more difficult for myself, and I thought we would do some light painting. I had already rehearsed the shoot at home...with a stuffed bear.....so how difficult could it be at a new location? The concept was simple. Being that part of Ellen's story had to do with her spine, I decided I would photograph her back via a mirror. This would require her to sit backwards in her chair...something I had not considered in my Teddy bear rehearsal. I must clarify that Ellen and her husband were great sports about all of this. After her husband assisted in reversing Ellen in her chair, she removed her shirt, and then proceeded to nearly fall to the floor. Fortunately, her husband was nearby, and quickly came to the rescue. I felt badly, not having considered the logistics of my unusual request. Kindly, Ellen assured me it was due to her purse, which was making the chair back-heavy. After all the excitement, I had to work out the angle of Ellen's chair, the angle of the mirror, and the location from which I would paint. For those unfamiliar with the technique, light painting involves a long exposure, no ambient light, and literally painting your subject with light. Ideally, your subject does not move a millimeter, and it does not take more than say.......534 attempts. I think we came in at around 427. So, with the camera on a tripod and the aperture open, I must run over (in complete darkness), and begin painting Ellen with a flashlight. Not only are the amount of swiping and distance important, but one must also avoid being in between the subject and camera while "painting." This will cause a most unappealing blur or ghosting. I used a blue filter on the flashing for the chair, just to change things up a bit. The rim light on Ellen's right shoulder was created when I lit her back via the mirror. In the end, I was quite happy with the image, considering that prior to this, I had only light painted a Venus flytrap and some tabletop still life.
Looking back, I was happy with the images. Ellen and her family were very welcoming, allowing me into their home on several occasions.

I recently had the pleasure of photographing a ballet dancer for my first time. I had envisioned how the shoot would go-- her stretching in a studio, surrounded by mirrored walls; leaps into the air; and a portrait in front of a spinning light rope. For the first time I can say the shoot went exactly as I had hoped. My subject, Princess (yes, that is her name), was the ideal voluntary victim.....SUBJECT!
I got some images of Princess at the barre, a few of her with her pointe shoes, and some shots of reflections. On my way into the studio, I had noticed the enormous basketball gym adjacent to our location. I knew it would allow for some very different images than what we would get in the studio. Aside from the much larger working area, I would be able to close down my aperture, hit my subject with a strobe, and make the world around her go black. To be honest, once I saw the gymnasium, I was anxious to get in there and get to the leaping images I had envisioned.
Once we did move into the gymnasium, we decided Princess would get into her red outfit and lose the pointe shoes....for her own safety on the slick gymnasium floor. Wanting to get the most out of my key light, I opted for the bare strobe over the large umbrella. I placed a stool in the center of the gym floor as a marker of where all the action would take place. This was helpful because as she was leaping through the air, I did not want to be focusing on a moving target. Locking my focus on the floor beneath her somewhat guaranteed me an in-focus image. For the initial leaping images, I was using my Tamron 70-200 2.8. Though I had to back up nearly into the bathroom to use the 200, it allowed me to isolate the flying dancer, and not the entire gymnasium in the background. I was shooting at sync speed on my 5D Mark II (1/160th), doing all I could to freeze my subject. The first image shows Princess on the stool as I adjust the key light. I knew I would have to introduce a second light for a nice rim, separating her from the black hole behind her. Without the second light, her hair would vanish.
In our first aerial image, if you look to the right side of the frame, you just may be able to see the second strobe. It's round and white in appearance.
We then moved the rim light directly behind Princess to really isolate her from her environment.
For our next scenario, we moved to a miniscule equipment closet in order to remove all ambient light. My faithful assistant, Elizabeth, always willing to help out, was assigned the task of twirling a light rope behind our model. I must point out that is not nearly as simple as it sounds. The center of the spinning must be consistent, and directly behind the middle of our subject's head to achieve the desired effect. If anyone is seeking an up-and-coming lassoo artist, please let me know. So, for this scene, I was lighting Princess' visage with a beauty dish, doing all I could to confine the light in that small closet to light only her face. I will confess that because of the tight quarters, some light did reflect off the walls and ceiling, polluting the the scene to some extent. This required a small amount of work in post to remove said light pollution. Our settings were an 1/8th of a second at f/13. The long shutter speed is required to allow that spinning light in the background to buuuuuurn into the image. With a faster exposure (1/60th, 1/125th, etc.), the light rope would only appear as one "radius" of light, and not a complete circle around Princess' head. The f/13 assured me of an in focus capture, and also assisted in killing any unwanted ambient light creeping in from the open door behind me. As I mentioned, the three of us were crammed into a very small closet. To claify what is happening in this image, we have a "long" exposure going on, as Elizabeth frantically spinning that light rope behind princess. The long exposure allows the rope effect to take life, and the strobe on Princess freezes her for the most part. In other captures, her slight movement was revealed by a black halo around her head, and you can see the light that crept over her right shoulder. I could have removed it in Photoshop, but I like the imperfect nature of the effect.
Following some improvisational dance (which I may write about later), it was a wrap. I had a great time, and had accomplished what I had on my mental checklist of shots. This shoot had been a long time in the making, and I am so glad it finally came to fruition. Princess was the model subject, and Elizabeth was the ideal choreographer/light twirler. I could have not have hoped for a better experience, and I now have an even greater appreciation for dancers and what they put themselves through. I look forward to next one.

A few weekends ago, I was asked to photograph a young couple's wedding in the hills of Malibu. Ryan and Joella had selected Malibu and Vine as their venue. After slogging through the PCH traffic (there was a triathlon in Malibu the same day), I arrived at the golf club, already dripping sweat. After meeting briefly with the coordinator, I was off to meet the couple for the first time. They had decided to shoot a brief first-look scenario, so I photographed the groom and his droogs before heading over to photograph the bride's dress and the rings. The men were dressing in the bathroom, but I took them into the adjacent locker room for a few photographs.
After the guys were ready, we prepared for the first-look scenario. When I say "we," I mean me. I really should work with an assistant more often. In an attempt to avoid direct sunlight hitting our young couple, I positioned myself facing the back wall of the restaurant, which would be our staging area for our bride's first appearance. I had the groom "hide" behind a pillar, around the corner from our bride, Joella, who walked down a walkway into the direct sun, and I snapped a few images of her as she descended.
Just before they saw one another, I grabbed a shot of our hiding groom and the reflection of our approaching bride in the window next to Ryan.
Following a few tears, we made our way down to the golf cart station, and organized a wedding party caravan to a couple of choice spots for the family photographs. For a guy who was about to get married, Ryan was as cool as they come. It is always nice to work with people who are not always worrying about what could go wrong on their special day. For the family and wedding party images, we found a lovely hill in the shade. It was mid-afternoon, so the sun was going down at my 10 o'clock. I would typically set up a large umbrella at camera-left and feather it across our party, but I was working alone, it was hot, they were all on the hill above me, and....did I mention it was hot? I had positioned our subjects in the shade and with trees in the distance behind them for a reason. Without a bright sky burning into the image, I was free to open up to a 5 or 3.5 (for my fellow shooters out there), making the background go nice and soft. Knowing that I would be shooting no more than two rows deep, I knew focus would not be an issue at 200 mm. After getting all the required images, I suggested a classic jumping shot and/or a rolling down the hill shot. Everyone uncomfortably stared and laughed at one another like I was crazy. I get that a lot.
We sent everyone away, and Joella, Ryan and I moved on to another location. Ryan suggested some images of the two of them sitting under a tree, kissing and nuzzling. Of course they looked great together, but I did not care for the dappled light. As everyone kept warning me, Ryan has a nice bronze color to him, while Joella is very fare skinned. They didn't scare me. It's just a matter of positioning the subjects or the light source, and exposing for her light skin. I could always bring back some shadow detail in the underexposed skin in post. Before we left our final location, I suggested we have Joella dangle her feet into a sand trap on the golf course. After delicately carrying his bride-to-be to the edge of the sand trap, Ryan stepped out as I grabbed a few images of Joella looking forlorn. I converted one to black and white, and I must say, it is one of my favorites of the day. I really like the dissembling bouquet on the grass.
After delaying the ceremony long enough, we made our way back, and prepared for the big event. With the sun now behind the hills, I was free to once again shoot at a 2.8, and not worry about the background blowing out.
Following the ceremony, I only had one more scenario I wanted to make sure I had in the bag. The sun had just dipped behind the hills, so I rudely grabbed our now married couple, and promised them I would only need them for two minutes. I probably exaggerated (lied) about the time involved, but they were great sports all day long. I set up an Alien Bee on a stand (again, this is for the photogs out there), bare-bulbed it, and exposed for the purplish sky. I think I took 5 exposures, then released my victims (subjects).
It was a beautiful ceremony, and a true pleasure documenting Joella's and Ryan's special day. One is always fortunate when the clients are interested creaively in the process, and are also willing to have a little fun. My best to them both.
Oh, did I mention the donuts?
My wife and I recently returned from our first trip to Seattle, and we only needed an umbrella during half of our trip. We were there for my wife's conference, and while she was listening to lectures, I set out to photograph the city made so popular by grunge music, and that cafe up there....Star-something. While our hotel was in the business district, we spent most of our time in and around Pike Place. I am pretty sure I was the first tourist to take this shot.
Of course our first stop after seeing the mongers NOT toss fish at the market, was the famous gum wall in Post Alley. While I'm sure you have all seen the other 4, this did make it on the 2009 Top 5 Germiest Tourist Attractions list. The story goes that the owner of the Market Theater did not like patrons chewing gum in the theatre, so they started sticking it on the wall outside. I heard a similar story about the construction of the pyramid at Giza. The wall across from the great wall of gum currently only has two pieces of gum on it.....stuck on the "No gum this side....thank you" sign.
Also located just a stone's throw from the fish market is.....the FIRST Starbucks cafe. There is always a line to get in, and street performers vie for the position just out side the door. This woman MAY have been swaying to the gospel choir outside the cafe, but I'm pretty sure she just REALLY likes Starbucks. To be honest, the coffee is not "thank you lord" good, in my humble opinion. I found it strange that a barista at one of our local Starbucks could not tell me where the Peet's was located. It was two blocks away.
Just up the street a ways, across from Victor Steinbrueck Park (I believe......but it's not clear to me), there were a couple of street performers singing something that I imagine was music from the south. I don't remember, as they were just finishing up as I grabbed this photograph. Do you think that is where he keeps his cell phone.......if he has one?
I'm not sure if this bird was just singing along........or if it was mocking them.
The only time we left the Pike Place area was when we walked to the Space Needle. It was constructed for the 1962 World's Fair, and was the collaboration of businessman Edward Carlson, and architect John Graham. Carlson liked the idea of a giant balloon tied to the ground, and Graham was totally into flying saucers back then. The resulting building is 158 meters tall (without the antenna spire), it sways 1 inch per every 10mph gust, and was built in less than 10 months. That last part sounds impossible today. Three people have committed suicide by jumping from the Needle....but that was back in the 70's.
More impressive than the Space Needle, is the Frank Ghery building located near the needle. The Experience Music Project is just that......an experience. One critic of the building described it as "something that crawled out of the sea, rolled over, and died." Forbes magazine declared it one of the world's 10 Ugliest Buildings. I personally found it to be fascinating, and enjoyed the use of different colors on the facade.
Realizing that there were a few more adventures to cover from our Seattle trip, I've decided to finish our story in the next blog installment. Come back next time when we answer the question, "Is that a REAL Popsicle?"

Written by Suman Chakrabarti, Poverty, Health and Nutrition Division, International Food Policy Research Institute, New Delhi
The International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI), organized a policy seminar on "Social Protection & Safety Net
Interventions" in the month of February in New Delhi. The seminar touched on the role of food and cash transfers in improving poverty, food security and nutrition, in global and regional contexts. All speakers were well received by the audience and the seminar was lively with an array of wide ranging questions and discussions.
The first speaker, John Hoddinott, Deputy Director at the Poverty, Health and Nutrition Division – IFPRI , Washington, DC, pooled insights from recent studies in Ecuador, Niger, Uganda and Yemen, on social protection programs and their nutrition outcomes. He highlighted the relative advantages and drawbacks of cash, voucher and food transfers in terms of cost effectiveness, achievement of caloric intake increase and impact sufficiency to reduce chronic under-nutrition in young children. In addition, he shared very recent findings on the impact of combining behavioural change interventions with cash transfers in Bangladesh.
The second speaker, Avinash Kishore, Associate Research Fellow, IFPRI, New Delhi, shared insights from a working paper that investigates the impact of reforms in the Public Distribution System (PDS) of Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Odisha and Chhattisgarh, on the offtake of rice from fair price shops as well as on the reallocation of savings towards other food groups. These findings are central in the context of India's National Food Security Act (NFSA) which was enacted in 2013. The NFSA lays out very similar PDS reforms in terms of price reductions for key cereals and increase in the population covered, accompanied with supply side corrections, as were enforced in the aforementioned states.
The third and final speaker, Reetika Khera, Assistant Professor, Economics, Indian Institute of Technology, New Delhi, discussed her research on shifts in India's PDS. She discussed various facets of interest within the PDS including coverage, leakage, implicit subsidies, exclusion errors, and nutritional impacts, among others. The findings indicate an overall revival of the PDS in India albeit with high interstate variations. She concluded that there was a long way to go for improvements in the PDS, and emphasized that key reforms should focus on an expansion in the implicit subsidy given to households, incentives, computerization, and decentralization.
Issues and questions raised in the discussion period included:
- What is better in India's context, cash or food? A balanced approach would be a contextualized response, where cash could be better for some regions and food for others.
- What might be the possible measures to control leakages in the PDS? Mechanisms to check leakages might be easier to enforce under a cash transfer paradigm with the use of IT.
-Targeting versus universalization of the PDS: Given the large targeting errors for AAYs, BPLs, and APLs, would a universalized PDS prove to be more effective?
- What is the role of the private sector in grain management? Can the private sector distribute grains more efficiently and cost effectively?
- What are the effects of transfers on households? How do they re-allocate savings from subsidies? What are the effects on women's empowerment?
Presentation 1-Social safety nets, food security and nutrition

The loneliest people are the kindest.
"This is excellent, Douglas! Did you really cook it yourself?"- Martin
"I did indeed."- Douglas
"Mm, it's lovely."- Martin
"Carolyn, Douglas, this is Diego, a fine engineer, a useful light baritone, and a man with an inexhaustible knowledge of how Spanish animals go. Diego, do your Spanish cockerel?"- Martin
"Ki-kirri-kee!"- Diego
"Yup, that's my favourite one."- Martin
"So, you want me to divert? Is that it? You want me to ditch in Nowheresville Normandy? You want me to tell Carolyn I do have the absolute cast iron excuse she demanded for diverting and it goes Miaow."- Martin
"Yes, please."- Arthur
"All right, fine. Fine! All right. It's only a job. There'll be other jobs."- Martin
"But Martin, we've only got twenty minutes before they shut the tower. He can't possibly fix it."- Douglas
"Certainly he can! A man who can imitate a Spanish squirrel helping forty-eight men mow a meadow is capable of anything."- Martin
Martin had lived alone (well, he said alone, but it hardly was, considering he shared a house with multiple students and probably some rodents) for a long time.
It probably wasn't as long as it felt like, probably some sort of weird thing about time that just made it feel longer, but to him it was ages.
He lived in a pathetic attic and had been through three generations of students, none of whom had gotten very close to him, whether it was because they knew they'd be moving on, or because he was just weird, Martin could never be sure. Maybe that was part of it; the knowledge that he was stuck there with nowhere else to go, not enough money to find somewhere better, nor was there any hope of that in the near future.
Perhaps everyone knew that and it was why they avoided him. No one wanted to be stuck around a loser who wasn't going anywhere. Because that's what he was. A loser. A man who flew an airplane for free, failed his test multiple times, and was now a man with a van to pay the bills- and barely pay them at that. So when Martin looked at himself like that, it was no wonder he was so lonely.
So he knew what it felt like when he saw a homeless man on the street, was kind to him when everyone else ignored him. He even had a conversation with him, albeit an awkward one, because that's just what Martin does. He couldn't afford to buy him a coffee, or give him some spare change, but Martin always nodded his head at him, or stopped to say hello.
Because he knew how lonely it was. And knew that he was only one step away from that life.
The saddest people smile the brightest.
"Good morning, good morning, good morning gents, teas, coffees, keys, toffees!"- Arthur
"Morning Arthur. You seem a little low-spirited…"- Douglas
"Do I?"- Arthur
"No."- Douglas
"Brilliant! I love helping!"- Arthur
"Oh well come on, no one's truly happy."- Douglas
"I'm truly happy!"- Arthur
"No, Arthur, you are cheery. No one's interested in the secret of true cheeriness."- Douglas
"But that's not true. I'm fairly often just completely happy. Like, for instance, when you get into a bath quickly and it's just the right temperature, and you go "ooooh". I mean really no one gets any happier than that."- Arthur
"What a depressing thought."- Martin
"No, no, it's not though, because those sort of things happen all the time, whereas you're hardly ever, you know, blissfully happy with the love of your life in the moonlight, and when you are, you're too busy worrying about it being over soon, whereas the bath moments, there's loads of those!"- Arthur
Arthur had told Martin and Douglas the truth, that he really was genuinely happy most of the time. It was just the little in between times that were the worst, because it was those times that all the bad and terrible things managed to sneak him and remind him how unhappy he could be. Because that's what happened when you were so happy all the time, that the unhappy times had a way of packing all that sadness in and making it so much worse.
It hurt when Arthur remembered he was a clot (and a clod) and still lived with his mum, even though he was 29, because they actually liked living together, and it wasn't at all like that, and that he didn't even try to be a pilot and just failed and that he was stupid, stupid, stupid.
It really didn't matter that he was the one who thought about putting an otter in the fridge, or that he guessed what was in the box in less than twenty questions, or that he discovered the recipe for fizzy yoghurt, because in the end he was still a clot.
A stupid boy. With a not brilliant father.
But he had mum, and Skip, and Douglas, and Snoopadoop, and GERTI, and all the guys at the airport. They reminded him why he was happy most of the time. Because life was, in general, brilliant.
The most damaged people are the wisest.
"Well, you remember that time when there was that thing you didn't know whether or not I could do and then it turned out that I couldn't?"- Douglas
"No."- Arthur
"No, nor do I."- Douglas
"Did Douglas do something clever and now everything's fine?"- Arthur
"Yes."- Douglas
"Well Douglas will sort it out."- Arthur
"How?"- Carolyn
"I dunno! He'll think of something clever. Like he always does."- Arthur
"Has it occurred to you that maybe Dougal is always right?"- Douglas
"Hah, it's definitely occurred to Dougal."- Martin
Douglas really couldn't believe that Arthur couldn't find anything to tease him about, but then again, this was Arthur, the man who, without fail, saw the best in everyone and thought they were brilliant. Even when he provided a list, Arthur had just stared blankly at him, like it was meaningless. Douglas had given him a list of perfectly good ammunition, a list that anyone else would have taken hold of and run with, providing enough material easily to wear him down. But Arthur was too kind for that. Still, Douglas was hardly without flaws, without damage, without immense failures.
That whole thing about learning from mistakes? Definitely true. It was no wonder Douglas Richardson was the cleverest man around, in the sky or on the ground. That's what happened after three failed marriages and getting fired from a job you'd had for years. It made you a bit cynical, and a hell of a lot cleverer.
Or just appearing that way. It could go either way at MJN, considering the people who he was surrounded by. It wasn't hard to seem clever when compared to a man who didn't know what an apocalypse was.
And then there was the drinking. What was it now, ten years sober? Douglas had been damaged then, physically, mentally, emotionally. He'd stopped to make the marriage work, or at least try, seeing as his current wife at the time was pregnant.
He managed to quit drinking, but the marriage couldn't be saved.
So Douglas buckled down, worked hard to let nothing get to him, to always be the one to fix things with a sarcastic comment, or a witty remark, so he'd always been needed and no one could see how damaged he really was.
The loneliest people are the kindest. The saddest people smile the brightest. The most damaged people are the wisest. All because they do not wish to see anyone else suffer the way they do.
At work it was always the same. Douglas was the clever one, Arthur was the happy one, Martin was the kind (yet neurotic) one, and Carolyn was the alpha dog who looked out for her pack.
And even though they all saw through each other (except for Arthur, since he was actually kind of a clot) they let each other pretend.
It was best that way.

SOURCE: amber system light is on
The air flow is being blocked. Be sure that the sides of the set are not restricting air flow to the tv. If the unite is in a tight entertainment center it cannot get air flow.

(PLEASE NOTE: The classes included in this course are a part of the School of Supernatural Children's Ministry. We offer them here separately for parents who are only interested in the specific parenting classes. If you sign up for SSCM, all of these sessions will be included there.)
What is a spiritual champion? It is an irrepressible follower of Jesus Christ who accepts the Bible as truth, lives by its principles, and seeks ways to impact the world and continually deepen his or her relationship with God. It's what every Christian parent wants for their children, but frequently has no idea how to make it happen.
But it can be as simple as weaving in practical principles from God's Word into the fabric of the daily rhythm of family routine. Increase the odds that your child will grow into adulthood with a passion for Christ with the help of the simple principles included in this series of teachings with Becky Fischer.
We've taken fourteen sessions from the School of Supernatural Children's Ministry that specifically relate to Christian Parents. If you are planning to go through the full 45 Session School of Supernatural Children's Ministry, or if you have already done so, do not buy this course. All of these lessons are already contained in SSCM.
