The dive site is located in front of the docking area of the Gilimanuk Harbor . I bet you won 't believe this place has so many things to see, until you put on your mask and start exploring the 2 to 6m depth of water. Visibility is varying from 3 to 15m. If you are looking for big fishes, you will not find them here. This place is strictly for "unusual" and rare underwater creatures, which are small and well camouflage d between the sea grass, the sand and some debris.. yes, slowly work on the garbage and most probably there is something underneath. Snake Eals , Sea Snakes, Cockatoo Fish, Juvenile of Rabbit Fishes, Flounders, varieties of Gobies, Frog Fishes, Dragonets, Nudibranch, Sea Hares and many more. If you are an Underwater Photographer of Video shooter , you may spend 2 hours bottom time, 3 to 4 dives a day and still find something new.

Green Thumb Sunday
Two photos of some clumps of ferns that just appeared in the garden next to the pond! i'm so glad they arrived; seemed to have settled in well and are thriving!! However the Japanese Acer we planted is not looking too good - the leaves are turning yellow, curling and then going brown.

Lovely fern but sad to hear about the acer. Have you kept it well watered and is it in a sheltered shady position. They don't like the wind and strong sun.

Ferns are lovely, they might not have pretty flowers but the texture and pattern of their leaves are fascinating. And they come in so many shades of green.

Nice pics,
I love ferns and last year took a small clump from a neighbor. Unfortunately they didn't pop up this year and I'm surprised because in the neighbor's yard they're spreading like weeds.

I'm not an avid gardener, I do it because I need my yard to look nice when I have my annual open house with my horses. So I really appreciate ferns.
They take up plenty of room, don't take much maintenance. I'm always pleased when I get "volunteers" because it means I have one less plant to worry about.

Preschool vision, values and inspiration
Ficino School exists to provide philosophically inspired education that promotes excellence and strength of character. The Preschool is the beginning of this vision.
Truthfulness, respect, resilience, responsibility and obedience
Over the last decade parents have enquired whether there was a preschool whose philosophies aligned with Ficino School, having seen the benefits the primary school brought their older children. Ficino Preschool came into being after consultation with school stakeholders and the wider community to:
- create a haven for children to grow in self-belief and confidence
- provide a space in which curiosity can develop and imagination knows no bounds
- build a place of belonging where reciprocal relationships can take root
- offer new challenges and strengthen character through experience
- teach strategies for thinking, inquiring, experimenting and reasoning
- support children to serve their community and make positive contributions
- help the children to learn to focus their attention and be responsible
- encourage collaborative learning and socio-cultural exchanges
- provide opportunities to gain new knowledge and skills
- develop an awareness and understanding of the wider world
- teach an empowering curriculum based on Te Whāriki (the national curriculum)
- individually tailor support and guidance, and
- teach the importance of good health and mindfulness.

It was one heck of a roadshow that saw us visit 11 cities and attract 300 attendees who learned about shared value principles and then were guided through a process of applying them to their own context.
The NSW Family & Community Services team (Donna, Mia, Paul, Blaine, Tanya and more) and myself were pretty worn out by the end of it because of the energy in the room, the ideas generated and level of interest in the topic.
For the record, we presented at an entertainment centre, motel, two RSLs, golf club, museum, arts centre, football stadium, racecourse, hotel and airport!!!
The recurring themes in terms of takeaways for our audiences included:
- Innovative ways of engaging businesses in win-wins
- Differentiating "value" from "values"
- Creating sector-neutral language
- Seeing client and stakeholder perspectives
- Introducing attendees to collaboration processes and tools
Was a terrific workshop, congrats to the team and thanks for the invitation! – Meagan Lawson
And the non-workshop highlights included:
- Driving past the Golden Guitar in Tamworth, the Big Prawn in Ballina, the Dish in Parkes, the Dubbo Plains Zoo and Evonne Goolagong's big tennis racquet in Barellan
- Meeting several extraordinary people in the flesh that I'm connected to on social media
- Surviving the many plane, train and automobile trips taken with the NSW FaCS community coordinator team!
- Sarah, in Newcastle, singing her Z to A song!
Great ideas how to involve business for social benefit – Rob Bosi
It was a fantastic trip over an intense four week period. I feel truly grateful to have worked and travelled alongside a fabulous team in the process. And now to catch up with all those emails…

Misty Croslin's grandmother appeared on Nancy Grace stating that Misty Croslin told her that the night Haleigh disappeard, Misty heard Haleigh screaming in another room, allegedly being molested by Tommy Croslin or Joe Overstreet. Misty allegedly told her grandmother that she didn't help Haleigh or call police because she was threatened with death.
Is grandma making up stories? Or is Misty making this up to cover up for any part she played in Haleigh's alleged death?
From my experience, it is a plausible scenario. Haleigh's disappearance and probable death being linked to child sexual abuse makes more sense than one of the boys taking Haleigh when they couldn't steal a gun.

Laminate Flooring is a multi-layer synthetic flooring product, fused together with a lamination process. Laminate flooring simulates wood with a photographic applique layer under a clear protective layer. The inner core layer is usually composed of melamine resin and fiber board materials. There is sometimes a glue backing for ease of installation. It has the advantages that it is durable, as compared with carpet, and attractive, at a lower cost as compared to natural floor materials
Engineered Wood Flooring is a sandwich of 1/16" to 1/8" of finish wood on top and non-finish plywood underneath. So, what you're looking at is 100% genuine wood. Engineered Wood Floor is pre-finished. The top finish layer is pre-finished, which means that it's already sanded and sealed. As soon as the floor has been laid, you can walk on it. By contrast, unfinished solid hardwood must be sealed, and this requires waiting time before use. Note: solid hardwood is available pre-finished, as well. Engineered Wood Flooring can be sanded. The advantage of engineered wood flooring versus laminate is that engineered wood can be sanded after scratches and dings develop.
Ceramic tiles are a sought-after choice among consumers remodeling their home interiors or exteriors. This preference for ceramic tiles is logical since they are a cheap tiling solution and offer incomparable options in pattern and colors. However, there is some confusion when opting for ceramic tiles as people often confuse them with porcelain tiles. ceramic tiles are recommended for indoor applications. Ceramic tiles usually offer either a glazed or an unglazed surface. Tiles with glazed surfaces are as reflective as glass. This makes them ideal for wall-based tiling needs. Unglazed ceramic tiles like Mosaic and Quarry tiles are better suited for indoor flooring needs.
Porcelain tile offers a range of advantages that have contributed to its booming popularity. These tiles are stronger than regular ceramic tiles and are more resistant to moisture and frost. Porcelain tiles are ideal for use in high traffic areas and even the outdoors. Porcelain tiles are fired at very high temperatures and manufactured under high pressure. This gives them high strength and resistance to scratches, chemicals, and fire. Porcelain tiles are available in unglazed, matte or highly polished finishing. Lower moisture absorption leads to lesser staining and easier cleaning. Porcelain tiles do not require sealing, and they can easily be cleaned with a damp mop or cloth. Porcelain tiles are available in many
different styles and designs
Correctly chosen and installed carpeting should last for upwards of 20 years and should provide your desired comfort and value. Some carpets and fibers are now manufactured with the environment in mind, and can even be recycled. Carpet pad is also often recycled. Carpet can help keep your feet warm in the winter, and when kept clean can even help with allergies if the right fiber is chosen.
Vinyl Plank
Typically, vinyl plank flooring mimics a real hardwood in every single way. They contain fake wood grain designs, and have a little bit of texture to them, to give them the character you would expect from wood. But unlike wood, vinyl plank flooring is stained and water resistant, so there is no risk of water damage. Plus, it's more resistant to scratching, as well as sun bleaching, so you may find that your floors stay looking fantastic for longer, in addition to being lower in cost. But the real advantage of vinyl plank flooring is simply that it's cheap and easy to install, making it a great looking affordable alternative for literally any home.

The Ashtavaidyans of Kerala – Ayurveda's Pride
Ayurveda, the 5000 year old holistic system of healing, has eight specialized branches that correspond roughly to eight branches of western medicine. Ayurvedic physicians or 'vaidyas' who are equally proficient in all the eight branches are known as 'ashtavaidyas', for 'ashta' means 'eight'. Ayurveda or the science of life is rooted in Nature. Kerala in South India has traditionally been the source of a rich variety of medicinal plants and herbs, thanks to its abundant sunshine, rich soil and generous rainfall. As a result, Kerala has a long history of folk medicine that was practiced by healers from all levels of society. Between the 6th and 7th century, it is believed that Vagbhata, an Ayurvedic physician from Sind came to Kerala in quest of rare and valuable medicinal plants. His arrival triggered a new dynamic medical culture, and the traditional healers of Kerala adopted his work 'Ashtangahrdayam as the foundation of their system of medicine. They continued to draw on regional folk and medical practices too, and with their deep knowledge of the eight branches of Ayurveda as described in the Ashtangahrdayam, these healers became the Ashtavaidyans of Kerala.
Origins and Legends
The Ashtavaidya culture flourished between the 13th and 17th Centuries with generous royal patronage that nurtured scholarship and scientific research in medicine as well as in other fields. There were originally 18 Ashtavaidya families in Kerala, but the number has come down today. Each family developed its own specialized treatment procedures, and passed it down from generation to generation. However, there are other versions explaining the origins of the Ashtavaidya families of Kerala. . One belief is that Lord Parasuraman who brought Brahmins or Namboothiris to Kerala, assigned eight of these families as physicians, and these families came to be known as Ashtavaidyas, meaning Eight Physicians. There is another legend which says that eight prominent disciples of Vaagbhata and their families who followed the Ashtangahridayam method of treatment were the original Ashtavaidyas. It is even thought that Vaagbhata composed Ashtaangahridayam sitting on a rock near Thiruvizha temple.
Rigorous Training
Becoming an Ashtavaidya was a long drawn out, demanding and rigorous process. An Ashtavaidya would accept disciples from outside his family and their education involved a long period of intense study and apprenticeship under an accomplished master. Knowledge of Sanskrit was compulsory, and the study of grammar, poetry and drama were all considered essential to analyze the intricate meanings of the ancient medical texts. The disciples also had to study and memorize all the 7120 verses of the Astangahrdayam . They would observe very carefully the master practicing his art and would gradually get to understand the rationale behind the different forms of treatment. It is said that a disciple would be required to spend five years studying the texts, five years learning about medicinal plants in the forest, and five years of apprenticeship at the home of his Guru. The Ashtavaidyas of Kerala represent the cream of scholar physicians, who live and breathe Ayurveda. They excel in individualized treatments often using novel methods and even ordinary substances to heal body , mind and soul. They are truly the pride of Ayurveda, and the heirs of a tradition that has evolved over centuries without compromising its fundamental principles.

Lily James In Pride & Prejudice & Zombies — First Pic
Lily may be set to play Cinderella, but in her role as Elizabeth Bennet she is a different kind of heroine. Entertainment Weekly reports that the sisters are no longer just single ladies, but actually ninjas who are knife wielding — but of course they are still wearing their corsets!
The upcoming film it being directed by Burr Steers who is adapting the screenplay from Seth Grahame-Smith's book, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. According to the site, David O. Russell had also created a draft from the book and was attached to the project.
Burr revealed, "The first thing I did was reinsert all the Pride and Prejudice beats," he dished to the site. He also reportedly increased the roles of Mr. Darcy (Sam Riley) and Mr. Wickham (Jack Huston).
Lily opened up about her character, Elizabeth, who is fighting a zombie apocalypse that has been going on for 70 years. "Even in the original story, Elizabeth's a fighter and beyond her contemporaries in her ambitions and her ideas of women," she says. "She's a badass warrior. She's a ninja."
According to the site, filming began in September, and while it has not been given a release date, it is expected out in 2015. We can't wait to see how this plays out — and how the iconic love story is interpreted!

|Search treatments and conditions
A herniation is a protrusion of tissue through a weakness in the abdominal wall. It can be either external or internal.
A doctor's physical examination is often enough to diagnose a hernia. Sometimes you will be able to feel it yourself on the side of the abdomen or groin. You may feel pain when you lift heavy objects, cough, strain during urination or bowel movements, or during prolonged standing or sitting. The pain may be sharp and immediate or a dull ache that gets worse towards the end of the day. Severe, continuous pain, redness and tenderness are signs that the hernia may be entrapped or strangulated. These symptoms are cause for concern and immediate contact of your physician or surgeon is recommended.
People can be born with weaknesses that make them prone to hernias. Anything that causes muscle strain, weakens tissue, or increases abdominal pressures can then induce herniation. Examples include obesity, lifting heavy objects, constipation, smoking, poor nutrition or persistent coughing. Ultimately, all hernias are caused by a combination of muscle weakness and strain: a weak spot in the muscle tears under the pressure of strain, and an internal organ or tissue then pushes through the tear. Sometimes under heavy pressure, the tearing pain of a hernia may be felt. The weakened area may recover by itself or preventative measures may keep the problem from recurring.
In babies, umbilical hernias frequently heal themselves within four years, making surgery unnecessary.
In adults, surgery will usually be required to repair the area. It is important to get your hernia seen to by a doctor because if it is left untreated, the protruding organ may become strangulated (have its blood supply cut off), and infection and tissue death may occur as a result.

Constipation: Difficult, incomplete, or infrequent evacuation of dry, hardened feces from the bowels.
Inguinal: Pertaining to the region of the groin. Generally, the lowest lateral regions of the abdomen just above either side of the genitals.
Nausea: Symptoms resulting from an inclination to vomit.
Stomach: A hollow, muscular, J-shaped pouch located in the upper part of the abdomen to the left of the midline. The upper end (fundus) is large and dome-shaped; the area just below the fundus is called the body of the stomach. The fundus and the body are often referred to as the cardiac portion of the stomach. The lower (pyloric) portion curves downward and to the right and includes the antrum and the pylorus. The function of the stomach is to begin digestion by physically breaking down food received from the esophagus. The tissues of the stomach wall are composed of three types of muscle fibers: circular, longitudinal and oblique. These fibers create structural elasticity and contractibility, both of which are needed for digestion. The stomach mucosa contains cells which secrete hydrochloric acid and this in turn activates the other gastric enzymes pepsin and rennin. To protect itself from being destroyed by its own enzymes, the stomachs mucous lining must constantly regenerate itself.

- Do you have a supportive spouse or partner, a negative partner, or no partner? How does this relationship affect your caregiving and how does your caregiving affect your relationship?
I want to say some things to children caring for parents. First, if you are sharing caregiving with your parent's spouse (whether that person is also your parent or not), think about that person's right to make their own choices even if they are not the ones you would make (go read this article about knowing what is best for another person). Watching the decline of a parent and of a spouse are both great griefs, but they are different griefs. Try not to be so caught up in your own grief that you don't see how it is for the spouse.
If you write about caregiving in a forum not specifically oriented towards children caregiving for parents, please acknowledge that many caregivers are spouses. And we may be your age. I'm 56, caregiving for a 65 year old husband in the early stages of Lewy Body Dementia. I know women in their 40s with children still at home caring for husbands with early onset Alzheimers. We may be working full time; we may have dreams of what we were going to do in this stage of our lives that have been crushed. Don't leave us out of your discussions and resources.

Chris Taylor (game designer)
|Chris Taylor
|British Columbia
|Head of Wargaming Seattle[1]
|Kimberly Taylor
Chris Taylor is a video game designer and entrepreneur most famous for developing Total Annihilation and the Dungeon Siege series and for founding Gas Powered Games. In 2002, GameSpy named him the "30th most influential person in gaming."[2]
Game designer[edit]
Chris Taylor was born in British Columbia and started in the video game industry in the late 1980s at Distinctive Software in Burnaby. His first game was Hardball II released in 1989.
Taylor moved to Seattle, Washington in January 1996 when he joined Cavedog Entertainment as the designer and project leader for the real-time strategy computer game Total Annihilation and its first expansion, Total Annihilation: The Core Contingency.[3]
He founded Gas Powered Games in May 1998 and designed the action-role-playing video game Dungeon Siege.[4] Its sequel, Dungeon Siege II, was released in 2005.
In the August 2005 edition of PC Gamer, it was announced that Gas Powered Games was developing Supreme Commander, Chris's first RTS game since 1997. It is described as the spiritual successor to Total Annihilation, but was not able to be named as such because Atari (formerly Infogrames) owns the rights to the Total Annihilation name. Although Atari has shown no interest in reviving the TA franchise, the company nonetheless held on to it until July 2013.[5]
He also helped create the game's standalone expansion Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance.
End Of Gas Powered Games[edit]
On January 14, 2013, Chris Taylor kickstarted a new project called "Wildman".[6] On February 11, 2013, Chris Taylor shut down the kickstarter for "Wildman" prematurely. Four days before the campaign's end the pledged amount was only $504,120 of the required $1.1 million.[7]
Shortly thereafter in 2013, Gas Powered Games was acquired by Wargaming.net,[8] where Taylor was reported to be working on an unannounced project.
Taylor left Wargaming.net in November 2016 with a forward looking statement to be part of indie gaming.[9]
Supreme Commander released 2007 has been dubbed "best RTS of E3 2006",[10] the GameCritics Best Strategy Game Award[11] and achieving high ratings from major game websites and magazines.

Use Case: Remote User
Low Signal on Macro Level (Vacation Home, Single Houses, Remote Businesses)
You are located stationary remotely and have only very little 3G/LTE signal strength. This leads to low data throughput and patchy voice connection. The next base station is more than one kilometer away. This situation is typical for farms, vacation homes, remote homes or villages also for boats and yachts in the harbor or close to shore.
With our antennas you can significantly improve signal strength and reception quality.
Conugis Recommendations
Antenna XPOL-A002-V2 works with all available 3G/LTE frequencies (650-2700 MHz), 7 dBi gain, cross-polarised. For best performance the antenna has to be directed towards the base station. It is suitable for an installation on a wall or mast pole on a roof.
Antenna LPDA-A0092 covers all available 3G/LTE frequencies (700-2700 MHz) and has a very high gain for an 3G/LTE antennas (11dB). For LTE two antennas need to be aligned to the closest basestation to achieve best results. Mountable on a mast pole. The LTE-A0092 provides a high performance allround solution for a stationary situation.
If it is not possible to establish a permanent, stationary solution, like on a boat, and/or you are using different providers with different base stations, OMNI-A0069 as high gain omnidirectional antenna is your device of choice. With one antenna for 3G, two antennas for LTE/4G you can be sure to get the max out of whatever signal is available at your current location.

- When is a suitable time for me to apply and when are applications open?
Due to the frequency of our intakes each year we are always taking applications. If the intake you have requested is full, we will wait-list you for this intake, but will process your application for the following intake. There is no closing date as such, however intakes do fill fast.
- What dates do I give Study-link when I apply for my student loan?
You will need to provide Study-link with the start date you are issued on your Offer Letter to the college and the final date of each year you are studying.
Please refer to our term dates or contact Student Relations for more information.
- Weekly how many hours can I work outside of QRC?
We strongly recommend no part time work in the first term. After that if required around 10 hours per week in term two and between 10-20 hours per week in terms five and six.
- How long does it take for Study-link to pay student allowances?
Study-link pay allowances directly into your bank account, generally two weeks after starting the course.
- When do I start my internship, directly after the term has finished?
The start date of your internship is up to your internship employer. This can be negotiated by you in your interview and will be final once you receive your contract. This will also depend on seasonality for most Adventure Tourism Management placements.
- Do I get Christmas and New Years off? Do I get a holiday during my internship?
If you are internship or about to start your internship however you do not normally get Christmas or New Year off as a Hospitality Student, as this is usually the busiest (and most fun) time to be working in a hotel. As a Hospitality student it will all depend on your role and your employer. In hotel you usually either work Christmas or New Years day and you would need to talk to your manager or shift coordinator about this.
Adventure Tourism students, this will depend on your role and of course whether of not your company operates on these dates.
- Are we assessed on our internship?
Yes. You will have a written assignment that needs to be submitted before you return to QRC for your 2nd year.
Your performance during internship is also a factor. If you leave without resignation, or your employment is terminated, this is termed as a failed internship, and you will be unable to complete the diploma programme. Circumstances and your case will be presented and a decision will be made by the head of school.
- What are the pay rates for internship students?
This all depends on your previous experience, the position you are hired for, the type of property or company you work in, and the location (domestically or internationally). The base rates for internship students are generally anything from NZ$15.25-18 per hour.
- For internship if we decide to work a little longer than the 6-9 month period, are we still able to come back to do the last 6 months (term 5,6) of the course?
Yes, as long as you have completed your required hours (1000 for hospitality and 900 for adventure tourism). This also needs to be communicated with the Internship Manager and of course your employer. You are allowed back to QRC for your second year once you have advised Student Relations of your intended intake if there are spaces available.
- What is the weekly cost to stay in the QRC Lodge?
The weekly cost to stay at QRC Lodge, our halls of residence, starts from $293 per week. Twin share and single rooms are available. Fees cover wireless Internet and catered meals (7 breakfasts and 5 dinners weekly). Each room has its own toilet/shower facilities.
- Do I have to be a QRC student to live in at QRC Lodge?
Generally yes. QRC halls of residence are restricted to full time students attending QRC. There may however be availability to students attending international internship programmes and enrolled in other courses offered at the college.
- Is it compulsory to stay at QRC Lodge?
Not at all, accommodation at QRC Lodge is simply available to make our students transition to Queenstown and student life as simple and as straightforward as possible. Students are more than welcome to arrange their own accommodation while living and studying in Queenstown.
- Do I have to apply for accommodation before I know I have been accepted into a course of study?
No, once you have applied to the college and completed your application process and you have received your official offer of place, you can then apply for accommodation. You will however have to secure your offer of place and accommodation request for the college by paying your $500 deposit within 30 days of receiving your letter of offer to the college.
- I have specific meal requirements; can QRC lodge provide this for me?
QRC Lodge does provide vegetarian meals and will do their best to provide other special dietary requirements. You can ring to discuss your circumstances with the Student Relations team.
- Will I be placed into my preferred room type- can I be assured of a single room?
The offer will be for a place and not a particular room type. We will do our best to meet your first preference but it cannot be guaranteed. Your request is also on a first in, first served basis, therefore the earlier your application is received, the earlier you will be able to request your ideal room type. If there is a financial or other reason for your choice, please note this on your application form
- What are my obligations?
Before you accept an offer of place, you must read the QRC Lodge terms and regulations. You (and your guarantor) will be signing a legally binding contract. Once you move in you must:
- Pay your fees and charges, when due, for the full term of your contract, unless the Student Relations Manager agrees to release you from it.
- Show consideration towards other residents and neighbours, and their property.
- Keep your room or flat reasonably clean and tidy and free from damage.
- Inform the Hall managers as soon as possible of any maintenance issues or repairs needed.
- Can I arrive early?
That depends on the students already in the lodge. If there is availability our Student Relations team are happy to arrange this for you. If you can move in early, you will pay 1/7 of the weekly rate for each night before the official start date on your hall contract.
- If I arrive late, do I pay less?
No because your place is reserved for you. If you are replacing someone who is moving out, you pay from the day it has been agreed you can move in.
- What happens if i don't like living in the halls when I get there?
Living with a large number of people may be a very different lifestyle for you. At QRC lodge there will be lots of activities arranged for the first few weeks to ensure everyone gets to know each other. Most residents make new friends and settle in very quickly.
Moving away from home is a time of major adjustment and you may need to talk through any difficulties with a sympathetic listener such as a resident assistant, a friend, the Halls Manager or our Student Relations Manager. It usually takes at least six weeks to adjust to major moves like this, so give yourself at least this amount of time before you make any decisions. There are usually ways of resolving problems with accommodation provided you find ways of talking them through.
- Who cleans?
You are responsible for cleaning your own room. The management is responsible for cleaning communal areas such as corridors and student lounges.
- What insurance do I need?
You should consider insuring:
- Your property with contents insurance
- Yourself against risk of being held liable for intentional or careless damage to hall property with personal liability/legal liability insurance.
- Can I have guests to stay?
Through prior arrangement with Management we will permit you to have guests to stay for one or two nights in single rooms only.

As a girl who regretted cutting her hair, I immideiatly took this out of the shelf as soon as I laid eyes on it. When I drove back home to apply it, it made m hair grow (not as soon as I applied it, lol, it took some time but totally worth the wait). I noticed my nails became stronger, which is a big plus. recommend this for anybody who wants stronger nails and longer hair!!
I slowly fell in love with this product! i found with most hair and nail formulas i would find myself feeling a little bit sick with them. so i was at first skeptical about taking this but my nails and hair take foreverrrr to grow. I'm glad i made the wise choice to choose this product
While I consumed this product I have to admit that my hair got longer (fast) with a really healthy and shinny look. And my nails grew way more stronger. This product is amazing.
Does this product help to rebuild strength in your hair and nails? How well does it work?

The local running shop paired up with The North Face to put a spin on our regular Wednesday night trail runs. We met at FastBreak, where TNF had a bunch of the Single Track shoe for us to test out and take for a run. I got there a bit late, so some of the women's were already snatched up, but I was able to find a 9.5 to test for the evening. I was warned the ran about a 1/2 size small… I've been dancing a bit between 2 sizes, so these were pretty close to what I needed. The length seemed good, although the toe box a bit more narrow than I'm accustomed to. However, the sides have a stretchy mesh that is quite forgiving, so I gave it a whirl.
The turnout was fantastic! We usually get between 5 and 15 people at the runs, but we had at least 25 tonight. Our destination was Stringer's Ridge – a 90+ acre conservation area just minutes from downtown Chattanooga. The trails are undergoing much work. We've been running on them for years, but until recently the land was threatened to be developed. Thankfully with the Trust for Public Land's help, the area is now safe, and being preserved for the future. I haven't been out here in a few months and was impressed with the conditions. A lot of people have been busy working hard! (Now if I can just find my way around the maze of trails….)
Back to the shoes! We probably covered 6 miles on a mix of conditions – pavement, old asphault, dirt trail, dry crumbly rocky dirt roads, with lots of leaves and roots thrown in. I found the shoes to be a bit cushy like a road shoe, which was perfect for the harder surface; yet the "ESS Snake Plate" protected my foot from the rougher stuff we encounted. In general, it was a bit more neutral of a shoe than I'm used to, but I still felt comfortable in them. I don't know if it would be my go to shoe for ultra distance stuff, but could definitely see it fitting into my shoe lineup for shorter runs. Definitely worth checking out! They were also voted 2010 Gear of the Year award from Outside Magazine & 2010 Best Debut award from Runner's World Magazine, if you need a more professional recommendation

I'm writing this as we return home from vacation. We've had a wonderful time visiting family in Florida and Georgia, and as I mentioned in my last post, we also went to Disney World! This all came about at the last minute when a dear friend offered us the use of their timeshare in Orlando for the week after Thanksgiving. It had a wonderful water park that the kids enjoyed, and we were only ten minutes from Disney. Thank you, Rob and Laurie!
Since the children had never been to Disney and have wanted to go for quite some time, they were ecstatic when we told them where we were going. The excitement grew with each mile as we traveled down I-75, making a stop at my parents' home in Ga. for the night and then heading to Orlando the next day.
Initially we were going to just spend one day at the Magic Kingdom, but after getting several opinions from friends on the FIAR boards, we decided to also attend Mickey's Very Merry Christmas party, which really amounted to almost a 2nd whole day for us at the park. I am so glad that we did this. The kids' eyes just lit up as they took in all of the beautiful Christmas decorations, fireworks, and the Christmas parade. One of their favorite things was meeting the various Disney characters and getting their pictures and autographs.
We were able to do a character lunch at the Crystal Palace with Winnie the Pooh and friends, which was a highlight of the trip. We've been big Pooh fans around here for several years,. Last year Superman and I read The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh together as our afternoon read-aloud, so these characters have become cherished friends of ours. Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, and Eyeore each came around to the individual tables and greeted the children, giving out hugs and autographs. They also did a little parade around the restaurant with all of the children, and Superman and Giggly Girl got to be right behind Pooh for that. We took some great pictures, one of which might be our family Christmas card this year. I think this lunch was mine and Kurt's absolute favorite part of the whole vacation. Just seeing the looks of wonder and delight on our children's faces and watching them hold their little arms up for hugs from that "silly old bear" and his friends - this was the highlight for us.
The absolute favorite ride for all three children were the Indy race cars - they begged to ride this again and again. Other favorites were It's a Small World (I love this ride!), face painting (Giggly Girl was a cutie of a tiger), meeting Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck (one of Sweet Pea's favorites), and the Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor where Superman got to be in the show! The only thing that was not looked upon favorably by the children was the "bad guy" float in the afternoon parade. They wanted nothing to do with Captain Hook as he walked over to them or with the various evil queens, wicked witches, and not-so-nice stepmothers that were showcased on that float!
Another thing the kids were fascinated with was Cinderella's Castle. It has sparked so much interest in the subject that I think we'll consider a unit on royalty and castles this winter. We also enjoyed one of the advantages of home school this week. After arriving in Orlando we learned that the week after Thanksgiving is Disney's least crowded week! This proved true for us, as the longest line we waited in was maybe 25 or 30 minutes. That's a good thing when you have a 2, 4, and 6 yr. old in tow! I can't imagine now ever going back at any other time of year. Oh, and one more thing - I really benefited from The Unofficial Guide to Disney World (thank you, Diane). It really helped us plan our days and fit in what was important to us.
Below are some photos from our "magical" trip - Enjoy!

Our Pulse of Fintech report analyses global investment data into the fintech sector and provides overviews from a global and regional perspective.
Welcome to the Q1'17 edition of KPMG International's Pulse of Fintech report, in which we explore global trends and deal activity within fintech.
Globally, fintech investment held relatively steady as the market undertook a reset following a year of uncertainty across North America, Europe and Asia. Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) remained low following a major drop off in Q4'16, while venture capital (VC) funding to fintech took a small dip quarter over quarter. Meanwhile, private equity (PE) investment and deal activity rose slightly.
Corporate investors continued to drive fintech investment, with banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions recognizing the need to innovate and making investments accordingly. This quarter, corporates moved beyond traditional direct VC fintech investment and looked towards building partnerships and alliances with fintech companies in order to achieve their objectives.
On a regional basis, both the US and Europe started off the year with upticks in fintech investment and deal activity —with Europe in particular experiencing the highest level of investment in years. Asia, meanwhile, saw fintech investment drop, as the lack of mega-deals continued, and China introduced new fintech regulations that may take some time for fintech companies and investors to digest. The rapid expansion of Asia's fintech ecosystem across jurisdictions and strong ongoing interest in fintech in the region, suggest this decline may be short-lived.
Within fintech, payments and lending continued to dominate deals in most jurisdictions, although artificial intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, regulatory technology (regtech) and insurance technology (insurtech) are quickly growing on the radar of investors.
We examine these results and other trends in this quarter's report. We also explore a number of questions permeating the fintech market today, including:
We hope you find this quarter's edition of the Pulse of Fintech insightful. If you would like to discuss any of the information contained in this report, contact Anna Scally.

Quotes About Things Realistic Is
I tend to avoid melodrama. I try to create very realistic settings and very realistic experiences and realistic responses to these experiences. Melodrama is the use of really big events that may or may not happen in real life - certainly they do, but they're not events that are common to most people. Most of the things that happen in my novels are things that could happen to people in real life.Send Quote
The Captains of Industry have always counseled the rest of us "to be realistic." Let us, therefore, be realistic. Is it realistic to assume that the present economy would be just fine if only it would stop poisoning the air and water, or if only it would stop soil erosion, or if only it would stop degrading watersheds and forest ecosystems, or if only it would stop seducing children, or if only it would stop buying politicians, or if only it would give women and favored minorities an equitable share of the loot?Send Quote
I think my movies aren't sentimental. I think my movies are funny and sad and realistic. Not realistic in the sense that they're documentaries, but realistic in the sense that they're not idealistic, they're not optimistic, not pessimistic, and not propagandistic. They're an analysis of a situation. I call it as I see it, so to speak.Send Quote
Beer commercials usually show big men, manly men, doing manly things: 'You've just killed a small animal. It's time for a light beer.' Why not have a realistic beer commercial, with a realistic thing about beer, where someone goes, 'It's five o'clock in the morning. You've just pissed on a dumpster. It's Miller time.'Send Quote
First of all, Buddhism is neither pessimistic nor optimistic. If anything at all, it is realistic, for it takes a realistic view of life and the world. It looks at things objectively (yath?bh?tam). It does not falsely lull you into living in a fool's paradise, nor does it frighten and agonize you with all kinds of imaginary fears and sins. It tells you exactly and objectively what you are and what the world around you is, and shows you the way to perfect freedom, peace, tranquility and happiness.Send Quote
I'm realistic about my age and realistic about the fact that there's an awful lot less in front of me than there is behind me. I've always felt that music is an art form that deserves to live the life of the artist.Send Quote
You have to be realistic in the use of blood in the movies. There is a little bit more than a gallon in a human being. If you have a few thousand people, that makes a lot of blood. I'm very realistic in my use of blood.Send Quote
I was giving up--being realistic, as people liked to say, meaning the same thing. Being realistic made me feel bitter.Send Quote
I have always enjoyed dealing with a slightly surrealistic situation and presenting it in a realistic manner. I've always liked fairy tales and myths, magical stories. I think they are somehow closer to the sense of reality one feels today than the equally stylized 'realistic' story in which a great deal of selectivity and omission has to occur in order to preserve its 'realist' style.Send Quote
I think everybody wants to be loved, all the time, but it's not realistic. It's also not realistic, if you're going to be ambitious, in terms of changing the form or evolving.Send Quote
All paintings start out of a mood, out of a relationship with things or people, out of a complete visual impression. To call this expression abstract seems to me often to confuse the issue. Abstract means literally to draw from or separate. In this sense every artist is abstract . . . a realistic or non-objective approach makes no difference. The result is what counts.Send Quote
To me, an economy that sees the life of a community or a place as expendable, and reckons its value only in terms of money, is not acceptable because it is not realistic. I am thinking as I believe we must think if we wish to discuss the best uses of people, places, and things, and if we wish to give affection some standing in our thoughts.Send Quote
In early childhood, children develop a set of symbols that 'stand for' things they see in the world around them... Children are happy with symbolic drawing until about the age of eight or nine... when children develop a passion for realism. Our schools do not provide drawing instruction. Children try on their own to discover the secrets of realistic drawing, but nearly always fail and, sadly, give up on trying.Send Quote
I cannot accept that to be realistic means to tolerate misery, violence and hate. I do not believe that the hungry man should be treated as subversive for expressing his suffering. I shall never accept that the law can be used to justify tragedy, to keep things as they are, to make us abandon our ideas of a different world. Law is the path of liberty, and must as such open the way to progress for everyone.Send Quote
One objection I have heard voiced to works of this kind �dealing with Texas �is the amount of gore spilled across the pages. It can not be otherwise. In order to write a realistic and true history of any part of the Southwest, one must narrate such things, even at the risk of monotony.Send Quote
Some playwrights are obvious influences on younger writers. Arthur Miller (realistic, politically engaged dramas) and Christopher Durang (satirical dark comedies) are examples. But August stands apart, ... He has his special way of seeing things. I remember he and I were at one of those fancy benefits the Rep has. The gay men's chorus was singing, and I was very proud to have brought them into a Rep event. And August says, 'You know, I don't see any black people up there.' That was his focus the lives of black people.Send Quote
...it is pretentious for photographers to believe that their pictures alone change things. If they did, we wouldn't be besieged by war, by incidents of genocide, by hunger. A more realistic assessment of photography's value is to point out that it is illustrative of what's going on, that it provides a record of history, that photographs can prompt dialogue.Send Quote
Part of the reason I make things realistic is, I don't really want to have to explain my work. What I wish to communicate is done so people can make their own interpretation, and if it's different to my idea it �doesn't �matter.Send Quote

More from Feministing
16 comments:
And, yup, that's why I don't go to places like Feministing. Call me a coward, but I'm not an abuse-seeking defective.ReplyDelete
Hrm. I appear not to be over being triggered to hell and back. Fancy.
There will probably be rantage later. For now, there will be going and making cookies, because cookies are better than reading those comment threads.
Cookies are certainly better, and you don't strike me as a coward.ReplyDelete
Unfortunately, the inevitable seems to have happened. It looks like the charge is being led by our old friend Becstar, who has apparently become even crazier than she used to be.
I am feeling very, very sarcastic about becstar, in part because she got close enough to me to trigger the everliving fuck out of me. So please take this comment with that in mind.ReplyDelete
Apparently calling her on rape apologism and expecting her to back up her positions with actual statistics is too much like thinking.
Oddly enough, I'm mostly feeling sad about Becstar. It's not just this thread, she's been lashing out erratically all over the place lately.ReplyDelete
My sister noticed that she popped into another thread to be egregiously transphobic recently, too. Something about how nobody would ever really want to be a woman, the only reasonable thing is to hate having a female body. That what you were referring to?ReplyDelete
I'd probably feel sad about her if it weren't for the fact that I have to rebuild boundaries. I'm still kind of pissed off, but it's one of those "don't expect I'll ever get an apology, so it just has to burn out" sorts of things.
Mostly how I feel about that entire mess is some form of, "I wish I could say that this will stop me trying to help people on the internets. But I'm still dumb enough to try." The fact that it comes out that way kind of upsets me, but ... it comes out that way.
That, but also this and this.ReplyDelete
Mostly how I feel about that entire mess is some form of, "I wish I could say that this will stop me trying to help people on the internets. But I'm still dumb enough to try." Yup, that pretty much sums up my feelings about it too. I'm even still dumb enough to try and help her. I must just be a glutton for punishment.
Well, you know, all us submissive folks are masochists looking for abuse, right?ReplyDelete
*has a look at those threads*
Wow. That's ... yeah, I see your 'sad', some, now.
- ggg_girlMay 30, 2009 at 5:10 PM
I completely have your back on feministing :)ReplyDelete
Love the blog by the way
Thanks for linking to your blog on this feministing post. I'm just starting to examine my sexual preferences in relation to my feminist identity, and its really helpful to know these sex-positive blogs are out there.ReplyDelete
ggg_girl: Thanks on both counts.ReplyDelete
Kate: Welcome, glad I can help.
- ggg_girlMay 31, 2009 at 3:23 AM
it seems like becstar was banned. before I had posted that I didn't want to share my examination of my sexuality because it wasn't a safe space, not sure if I should share it now there or not... probably only you & trinity would be interestedReplyDelete
Well I would certainly be interested, but I can definitely understand if you didn't want to post it there.ReplyDelete
I just made a new blog :D I'll post it there soon:ReplyDelete
LOL 100% sure, that was certainly the case! I wonder if it will still be that way now that becstar has been banned...ReplyDelete
Kate: Hiya!ReplyDelete
ggg_girl: I'm sufficiently jaded that I don't consider places like Feministing sufficiently safe space to register for, so I'm not sure that my opinion on that sort of thing is warranted. ;) But I saw you started up your own blogspace, which means you have an interwebs corner where you get to make the rules.
Dw3t-Hthr: Yeah I do the feministing thing but I don't think it's a safe space so there's no way I'm going to write a community post or something about my personal life and open it up for attack. I feel bad for the person who wrote this post. I don't understand why people ask for advice over there when posting about deeply personal issues that they already feel strongly about. Why pretend to seek approval and open yourself up for a million attacks? I'm not that masochistic ;)ReplyDelete
Dw3t-Hthr & Hope & anyone else: Come visit my blog? I'm very excited about it! Only the people on this blog and let them eat know about it; I don't really feel like telling other people in my life all about my sexuality. Maybe if I get more comfortable I'd give them the URL but for now it's only on the interwebs.

Although the stakes and risks may not always be quite as substantial, we place our trust in dentists and oral surgeons just as we do with medical doctors. Like other healthcare providers, dentists are required to adhere to applicable standards of care.
If you have been victimized by a failed or botched dental procedure and incurred significant pain or costs as a result, you may be able to take legal action for dental malpractice. At the respected law firm Macaluso & Fafinski, P.C., we have proven negligence and successfully recovered damages for our clients in dental malpractice cases. You can contact us anytime to request a free, informative initial consultation.
If you are considering taking action against a dentist or oral surgeon, you probably have had an extremely painful experience or are now dealing with severe consequences. As an example, our attorneys recently handled a case in which an appointment for a tooth extraction ended with facial nerve damage. Other dentist errors and cases of dental malpractice involve:
If you wish to pursue compensation in your dental malpractice case, there is certainly no substitute for an attorney with a wealth of relevant experience. As in any case of medical malpractice, we will call in appropriate experts as necessary to build your case for settlement or trial. You can depend on us for objective assessment of any settlement offers, clear perspective on developments in your case, and insight into likely outcomes at every stage.
Please contact us to arrange a consultation on your potential dental malpractice case.

The process of choosing a life insurance policy can seem daunting. It is an important decision that you have to make. Here are a few tips to help you narrow down your life insurance options.
Learn more about Freedom Life Insurance at Crunchbase.
Term Life Insurance
It covers you for a specified period. It enables you to match the range of your needs to the length of the term policy. For instance, you might buy a 20-year freedom life insurance to ensure that you will have adequate funds to pay for your child's college fee. You may also purchase a term life policy to repay a debt that will need to be repaid in a specified period.
Term life insurance enables you to buy a term policy even with a limited budget. Term life policy only pays when one dies during the term of the plan. Therefore, it has a lower rate per thousand of death benefit compared to freedom life insurance. With term life insurance, coverage stops if the term ends when you are still alive unless you renew or buy a new policy. Unlike permanent life policy, term life insurance doesn't allow you to build equity in the form of cash savings.
Permanent Life Policy
For as long as you are alive, a freedom life insurance is inevitable. With a permanent life insurance, you are entitled to payment whether you die today or 100 years to come. Permanent life insurance enables you to save and grow on a tax-deferred basis. You can use the savings element to pay your premiums. You can also use it for any other purpose. Even if your credit is shaky, you are allowed to borrow these funds. Collateral for your loan is the death benefit. If you die before your loan is rapid, the insurer deducts what is due the company before giving the remainder to your beneficiary. Nonetheless, permanent life policyholders pay a higher premium than term life insurance holders. Nevertheless, the premium for permanent policyholders remains the same irrespective of your age. The value of your permanent life insurance can increase significantly every time you renew it.
