Here are my Audio Pieces for the project.
This week, I worked more on my InDesign piece. I also worked on missed work that I missed uploading before.
Through my InDesign work, I worked more on the content and how it looked. I delved deeper into how I wanted the overall booklet to look. I settled on a fairly monochromatic theme with muted tones but bold text.
I worked more on my Photoshop skills as well and created more images for, including the front cover, for the project. There is a detailed explanation in a document below.
Here I explained how I created my visual aspects.
And here is my research on the genres.
This week, I focused on two subjects. Illustrating and Editing.
Although I missed Monday, I caught up on Tuesday by working on my illustrations for my project. I am using a technique I discovered last year which entails drawing over an image on Photoshop only using black ink and then removing the image and being left with your drawing. I have included my work below.
To say that this method takes a lot of time and patience would be an understatement but I really like the end product I get when I use this technique.
I also worked on editing one of my pieces this week as I mentioned before. I (mainly Greg) edited my 5 page story down to 3 and a half which I was satisfied with. I spoke to Celia who said that my story length was fine so I am hoping to include it fully in my work.
I definitely found the editing part difficult as I found having to condense my work down and removing details could lower the quality and it would end up not making sense.
I hope that my illustrations will add to the tone of my work and make it more aesthetically appealing.
Unfortunately, the computers weren't working most of Tuesday which was extremely irritating but luckily I was able to finish the illustrations throughout the week.
I found this website really helpful when editing. It helped me take away unnecessary clutter without compromising quality.
What was your chosen area and why?
I have chosen Kings Woods in Challock, Kent for My Walk. I chose this area because I used to come here often as a child, every other day sometimes. I would come here with my Dad to walk our dog and over the years, I began to familiarize myself with the route to the point of knowing it like the back of my hand.
As a child, I was always slightly paranoid in those woods. Always looking over my shoulder, sticking close to my Dad who brushed my suspicions off as an 'overactive imagination.' I believed him. Until I began to research this place.
A history dating back to 445 AD, this place is far from short on stories. A bunker used in World War 1 to the living site of the Romans, I chose this area because the real history inspires my writing.
What theme are you using?
I am mainly focusing on crime and ghost stories. I find these the most interesting to read as well as the most interesting to write. I think that writing ghost stories about this place will be really interesting as there are so many different paths I could take with it. What can I say, some parts of Kings Wood could make even the bravest man cry for his Mother. I also want to write some crime pieces on the place as there used to be an old wives tale about a group of kids that would go up there to plot. Plot what? Everyone has their own theory.
What is your style of writing?
My chosen style of writing will focus on articles. However, I do have a rough draft of an article that includes police report like features. I would like to make it look like an actual police report as I feel would it would fit the topic. I wanted these stories to be as believable as possible and I felt that writing a story with dialogue from a protagonists eyes would not give off the realism I wanted.
What are your aims and objectives of your map?
With this map, I really wanted people to take notice of Kings Wood and appreciate it for what it is. It is not very well known to today's generation and I want to bring more people to appreciate the beauty of the place, albeit slightly creepy.
Who is my target audience and why?
I have a wide target audience in mind. Age wise it would be 16-40 as I feel that interests are not inclusive to age. Gender is not specific either. It is mainly aimed at those who love mystery and crime.
What is the overall style of your piece?
My overall style is a mystery/thriller using articles to provide the most realistic feeling possible. I want to bring this place to life and make people invested.
Generally, what would you like to include in your piece?
In my piece, I really want to include little references that you would find in real police reports/crime documentaries etc. I want to include images and real locations as well as take inspiration from similar real life events. For a ghost story, I will research documented ghost sightings and old legends. I want to write about missing children so I will research cases such as those of Madeleine McCann and Jonbenet Ramsey respectively. Characters in my pieces will be based on real people.
What visual elements would you want to include and how would you implement them?
In this piece, I want to include images of the characters and the environment. I will try to include police evidence photos if I can but I am not sure how I would be able to create those, however, I will look into it. If this is not possible, I will still include whatever images I see appropriate for the story.
Technical: How would you make this piece interactive, visual and audio based?
For my piece of work, I plan to add audio pieces relating to the story. For example, my crime piece will include the audio of the 999 call. My piece on the myth of genetically modified soldiers could include a log recording of doctors talking about their subjects.
As for the visual aspect, I want to include crime scene photos for the crime piece to add to the feeling of the piece. I also want people to visualise in their heads what they are reading. I want them to imagine the discarded bullets lying on the ground, I want them to imagine people going missing with no explanation. I want people to see it as if it was actually there.
Whilst my piece may not be interactive in the touch screen sense, I want people to become invested in my stories. I was them to become caught up in them. To me, that is what interactive really means. Interacting with your audience.
What creative problems might you need to overcome in audio, interactive and visual and how will you propose to do that?
I may encounter a few issues regarding visual and audio issues. The audio may be a problem as I may not be able to find the right voice to create the atmosphere wanted. However, to overcome this, I will have to keep looking until I find the right person.
Regarding the visual aspect, there may be photos I want to use that I won't be able to regarding copyright issues. If this issue arises, I will keep looking for photos, contact the photographer or create my own.

Jonbenet Ramsey– Murdered 6 year-old pageant queen (Unsolved)

WATERTOWN (WKOW) --- First Lady Michelle Obama is stopping in Watertown, Wisconsin Thursday to unveil a new campaign to urge people to drink more water.
Others joining the "Drink Up" movement include Partnership for a Healthier America along with Actress Eva Longoria and a dozen other water groups.
The campaign's message is to encourage everyone to make a simple choice by consuming more water each day. "Since we started the Let's Move! initiative, I've been looking for as many ways as possible to help families and kids lead healthier lives. I've come to realize that if we were going to take just one step to make ourselves and our families healthier, probably the single best thing we could do is to simply drink more water," said First Lady Michelle Obama. "That's it – it's really that simple. Drink just one more glass of water a day and you can make a real difference for your health, your energy, and the way you feel. So Drink Up and see for yourself."
According to the CDC, one fourth of children do not drink any water on a given day.
We will be with the First Lady today at her carnival of water event in Watertown. They chose Watertown in hopes every town can become a "Water town." Actress Eva Longoria says, "Lots of people want to live healthier, but life gets busy and sometimes making the healthier choice can seem difficult. Drinking more water is a simple, easy choice that most people can make every day. I'm thrilled that so many organizations have come together today to help remind people that you are what you drink, and drinking water is you at your best."
Watertown has also won the best water of Wisconsin two years in a row, a spot the White House says is perfect to start the message at. In fact, Watertown, along with Los Angeles County, Chicago and Houston will use the new logo and public services announcements on busses and bus stops, in municipals buildings and other places to encourage more people to drink water.
We will stream the event at 2:30 p.m. live here on WKOW.com
We will also be on Facebook and Twitter with photos from the event so be sure to follow us there.
The campaign will use the hashtag #drink H2O.

So long ombre. Hello tortoiseshell. The newest hair trend seems to be similar to long-lived techniques like ombre and balayage yet more of a sophisticated approach. Of course, this Ecaille-style first
spotted in Paris, I mean, duh, starts with a richer slightly darker than your natural yet warm browns at your roots graduating down to light and much warmer tones. Think amber or honey like tortoiseshell.
Honestly, I love it! I think it's safe to say that this style is what ombre has evolved into. It's all about the graduation of color with warm tones. Many celebrities are showing off this look with different variations of this specific style. That's what I love about it. You can have fun with the different tones of each rich color. Add some balayage pieces up towards the face to brighten things up with a bolder look or even add a few highlights throughout to get more of that blended feel to it. This style continues to be a low maintenance and it's easy to just go and start out a bit deeper and richer and then add more lightness once Spring rolls around. Or just go in to your stylist to simply add a gloss to enhance those rich colors when you are feel drab.
What do you think about this new trend?

At the end of every school year we have to make a final thesis graduation art project as part of our art exams. You can make basicly anything for it, but I decided to go for a classical oil painting. As it was our last year together, I got an idea to draw/paint my classmates based on an old painting. And as we have a fairly small class, "The Last Supper" seemed like a legit choice. c:
Yeah, for the base I chose Jacopo Bassano's last supper painting.
Started out with a sketch and nobody in my class was against the idea~
So~ Poked ppl and tried to get everybody in a similar enough pose as on the original, smashed everyhting together and used this as my main reference for the painting. :3
During a week finally got everything in place on canvas.
Figured I should do the portrait parts next after the bg was done. (not a good idea at all if you dont have a clear vision of the whole colour scheme! D:) Anyway, these two buddies helped me out with the portraits and used Louvre oils.
Its always good to have a reference pic nearby even better if side by side. ^^
This is the way I painted all of the portraits. First mixed a skin tone of ochre, sienna and white, covered the darker skin areas and then used a ligter tone of the same mix and tried smudging the lighter and darker parts together. Then added a bit of crimson red, burnt umber and itsy-bitsy ultramarine, higlights on the cheek and nose and finally added other details. Its also good to paint over the hair part with the skin tone before starting with the hair.
Btw, this is me. :D
This isnt the finished version, you can see it at my Deviantart page. ;)
And here are some colse-up shots. :3

Why is "The Big Bang Theory" the most popular TV comedy since "Friends" signed off the air in 2004? Adam K. Raymond says that today's programs "are not supposed to be this popular, not in the age of DVRs, Netflix, and cord-cutting." With 24 million viewers each week, the next closest comedy is "Modern Family," which brings in 10 million less on average (14.5 million). One of the biggest reasons for the overwhelming success is creator Chuck Lorre's eye for casting perfectly with Johnny Galecki, Jim Parsons, Kaley Cuoco, and the rest. Other reasons include the Thursday time slot on CBS, the storylines, pacing, apartment setting, and classic relationships. Vulture.
While "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" is tops at the box office this weekend, the news isn't all that great. With a gross of $92 million in the U.S., the Andrew Garfield film was much lower than "Iron Man 3" at this same time last year and on par with the "Captain America" sequel last month. "The Other Woman" with Cameron Diaz fell to second place with $14.2 million. "Heaven is for Real" holds steady in the third spot with $8.7 million. Thompson on Hollywood.

Can you believe it, Buggy fans? Raceday 2017 is a mere week away! Much like our buggies, time seems to be speeding up as we approach the pinnacle of buggy-lover activities. Every org but one was out and getting in those last few rolls before Truck Weekend. Though, it seems that several teams are waiting on their duct tape orders to arrive. Ethan G (report writer and radioman extraordinaire) amassed quite the collection of hatches and various buggy bits that came loose in the chute.
If you arrived at rolls before 6:30 on Saturday, you'd have seen about 100 vehicles on the course as EMS borrowed our closed roads to do some training for their drivers. Rolls scheduled to start earlier this weekend were delayed on Saturday by course works and confusion on the roads as we scrambled to get the flaggers to their positions before their buggies were rolling. There was a little chaos and many teams were not prepared as Sweepstakes called for first roll.
Triple Buggy Spin – The major incident on the course this weekend occurred Sunday during a joint PhiDelt and Apex Roll. After passing Panther Hollow bridge and the transition flaggers the driver of the lead PhiDelt buggy felt, or heard something that upset her enough to put on the brakes. After applying the brakes the buggy went into a spin and came to a stop in the middle of the roadway. Unfortunately they were being closely followed by 2 Apex buggies 'Ember' and 'Kyle'. Upon seeing stop flags Ember applied the brakes and pulled left, spinning around and coming to a stop against the sidewalk. 'Kyle' seeing this attempted to steer to a wide right of the pileup and applied the brakes as she headed towards the monument. 'Kyle' at this point also spun around and came to a stop leaving 3 buggies facing the wrong direction just upstream of the monument. EMS cleared all the drivers for be pushed through but this very unexpected turn of events results in a significant rolls slow-down.

Observations (Saturday Gallery | Sunday Gallery)
- RoboBuggy – The dystopian buggy future is now. No, we aren't referring to the current political situation. Transistor successfully completed two full autonomous rolls on Saturday and more on Sunday as the RoboBuggy team starts to iron out the kinks in their navigation systems. Sadly it doesn't like they will be achieving Raceday speeds anytime soon. The path that Transistor takes is less than ideal and tends to meander back and forth across the road. But it CAN successfully make the turn in the chute and that's d*mn impressive. This is a positive step for those looking to keep rolls as safe as possible by removing humans. We'll have to see if the city of Pittsburgh is ready to turn the back-hills into a conveyer belt. In any case good work guys this is a real milestone!! Can't wait to see where this system goes in a few years. Perhaps one day there will be less hunting for small women among unsuspecting freshmen and more frustration as your firmware update fails to build.
- Apex –Apex came out with just one buggy on Saturday and scored a number of rolls for Phoenix. The absence of "Kyle" was troubling as these new buggies need every opportunity to roll to be qualified and ready to race. On Sunday the team returned with gusto. No longer inhibited by bags, Kyle is rolling like a quality new build, and is definitely lighter on her wheels than her older brother Phoenix (Re: last week…ouch, guys). Although Apex is still having trouble holding onto their rear hatches, the following more newsworthy story of the day was no fault of the members of Apex. Kyle had a near miss with an indignant runner whom after being told repeatedly (and loudly) to leave the course. She stopped just long enough at the bottom of the Freeroll to give the support teams a dirty look as a buggy passed her within a few feet… at no less than 30 miles an hour. It's time to get more forceful about blocking these pedestrians. Full contact flagging anyone? (Editor's note: The following Tuesday while driving to work, I'm fairly certain this same jogger meandered into the crosswalk against the light in front of me. Like on Sunday, she again gave zero fricks.)
- CIA – On Saturday, Emperor continued to thunder around the course on a questionable set of wheels, although it's worth noting that they sounded much less like hexagons and more like octagons. For many years orgs have theorized about the benefits of and experimented with larger wheels. But it helps if the wheels are round. On Sunday, Emperor came out much quieter (perhaps new rubber?) and rolling a bit faster. As CIA wraps up qualifying most of their drivers
(Shout out to Victoria driving Orca for being the only non-SDC driver coming into this weekend fully qualified)they appear to have added Impulse back into the mix. Impulse has appeared sporadically this Spring, but hasn't been consistent in the fall roll schedule. If CIA gets all its buggies qualified we'll be looking at 6 different machines rolling on Raceday. You only get 8 heats guys, leave some drivers for the rest of the teams!
- Fringe – Fringe rolled four buggies both Saturday and Sunday this past weekend. As per Fringe standard, their rolls were fast, quiet, smooth, and uneventful. Here is a list of things that did not happen during Fringe's rolls: Bolt did not electrocute a squirrel; Beacon did not chase down and take out the indignant jogger from Apex's roll; Bissa did not blast "Back in Black" as she cruised down the Freeroll; and finally, Bissa, Bolt, Beacon, and NB17 did not morph into a dinosaur-shaped buggies and subsequently come together to form one giant dinosaur-shaped buggy to battle Transistor.
- PhiDelt – Phi Delta Theta was first colonized at CMU in October of 2013. After starting buggy last year with the KDR loaner 'Perun' they rolled a successful 2016 Raceday with a promising finish time. This year they set their sights high: complete their own buggy build and be out to another Raceday. This weekend, PhiDelt took a big step towards their goals and attended their first rolls of the year! They grow up so fast; the new org is now rolling with a buggy all their own. Though they were hesitant to give a name I've been told it is referred to as "Emily". The first day back out after an extended hiatus left them with some kinks to work on and, rolling double bagged meant significant slow downs through the course. "Emily" with her veteran driver Sarah Deluty was only able to successfully complete one Freeroll on Saturday and also managed to lose some hatch hardware in the chute. Sunday was more eventful, after scratching their first roll PhiDelt managed to nearly complete a Freeroll only to have more hatch trouble when their front windshield came completely off the buggy as they passed over the chute trench. The buggy was stopped and removed from the course but came back to roll alongside Pika and Apex as they hustle to qualify for Raceday.
- PiKA – In addition to Cliodhna and Banshee; Raptor came to rolls this weekend! After collecting a few rolls in October, Raptor was not seen again rolling the course… until this Sunday! Due to severely lacking the roll counts of their entire fleet, PiKA was rolling with other orgs that are struggling to qualify. PiKA's unique roll style of releasing all their buggies nearly simultaneously shows a high level of confidence in their drivers to react if anything were to go wrong. Most teams try to avoid putting their buggies and drivers in high risk situations before Raceday, but PiKA has always followed the beat of their own drum. Fortunately the drivers of PiKA's matte black fleet live up to expectations as we've seen basically no issues with the speed or control.
- SAE – As we rush headlong towards Raceday we start to get near full attendance at rolls. SAE, having only been out twice thus far, is looking in good form as Lucy holds her line through the less-than-perfect-pavement of the chute. The consistent quality of their rolls is almost certainly due to the experience of veteran driver Hee Jung Koh who was driving for SAE last year when they put up a solid time of 2:23.928. Not quite enough for day two, but very respectable. A couple of days refining the chute line might be enough to put them in the top 10 come Raceday.
SDC came into this weekend with three of their drivers fully qualified and two more only needing only a day of rolls. Only one other organization could have boasted even a single qualified driver.As many alumni look nervously over the roll counts, there can be no question of SDC's dedication to the sport of buggy. SDC rolled true to form with 5 buggies consistently where they need to be all weekend….with one exception. On Saturday morning SDC was forced to scratch their first roll. Due to confusion with EMS, the SDC support crew set off for their position late. Even though the flaggers ran over Flagstaff in a valiant effort to secure first roll, they weren't able to get in position before SDC was forced to scratch. Nobody's perfect…but SDC is a close approximation.
- SigEp –After losing out on their first Saturday roll due to general confusion surrounding the start time, SigEp came out strong with a new neon pink buggy (reportedly named "Beyonce"). The new buggy managed to make it to the chute for a full roll even while sporting two stylish Traders Joe's bags. The front view-screen on Beyonce looks to be held on with little more then tape and a prayer, and we expect to see an upgrade before design comp. Kraken rolled quickly and consistently for the duration of the weekend. The team is racking up their roll count by getting additional laps around the course by pass testing with SAE. They may be in need those extra rolls as last week SigEp loaded a new (but not inexperienced) driver into Kraken and will now need to hustle to get her qualified for race-day. Barracuda is looking particularly fast these days; during it's second roll Saturday it blasted past all of the pushers for a solid 5-window rollout…and then nobody came to get it. The addition of an extra buggy it looked like not enough pushers were allocated. Hill three pushers from other organizations yelled for someone to come pick up the listing Sig-Ep buggies. Everyone made it back to top of hill safely and rolls were not delayed.
- Spirit –Spirit was getting focused this weekend choosing to field just two buggies at a time as they refine their lines and get everyone pass-tested. Unfortunately on Saturday there was an incident involving Zuke, as it took a wide chute line the left outrigger wheel made contact with the bales along the chute and sheared off half of the rear axle. This forced the buggy against the bales as it came to a stop. The driver was checked by EMS and cleared for extraction. The incident seemed not have affected the team as Zuke was back on Sunday with a fresh axle and Spirit could be observed getting everyone up to speed and rolling a number of windows. Provided everyone makes it through the chute they will of course be a force to be reckoned with come Raceday.

The primary reason why I started this blog was to improve my writing and go "out there" with it. It is as simple as that.
The second reason I grabbed the chance of starting a blog was, that I more and more often found myself wondering in which direction our society is heading. It strikes me that we are becoming more and more selfish, unconsidered and mean and I wanted to share my experiences with you. I want to know if there are more people who are also wondering about our fellows and their behavior.
But I hope, that there are many, many people out there who will convince me of the contrary and let this blog become an optimistic one.
I am very excited to see where this is all going and I hope you will follow my blog and let me know if there is something you want to share or comment.
I have already mentioned on the site "About me" that this blog has become more personal over the years, so you are going to get to know me a little better, especially as I am not holding back with my opinion. In the end it is only that: my point of view.
Last but not least, I love to write about my adventures in the mountains and my pure love for the mountains.
As important as the writing on a blog are the pictures and I highly recommend Pixabay as a source of great pictures and illustrations. I am using some of them on my blog next to photos taken by myself.

When Danes fear immigrants, it is not because of the average American or Chinese – it is because of the Muslims. Muslim immigration has proven to be a weapon of mass destruction, blowing up the very pillars of society: our economy, cultural cohesion, safety and free speech. No wonder why Danes fear immigration more that the much hyped global warming, economic competitiveness and the all-pervading and very real terror threat. ScreenshotsA�and text translated from SA?ndagsavisenA�(text in bottom):
"…24A�percent see immigrants as the greatest threat to Denmark in the future. … According to Lars Holmberg, Associate Professor at the Faculty of Law at the University of Copenhagen, there is no simple explanation for why some ethnic groups are more criminal than others. "There are many factors that come into play. Both the social and cultural background may have something to say. Even if we adjust for social background, certain ethnic groups are still overrepresented," says Lars Holmberg."

Curtis Settles Down to Play Buick Open
Curtis Settles Down to Play Buick Open
Jul. 29, 2003
GRAND BLANC, Mich. (AP) _ In less than two weeks, Ben Curtis has gone from an unknown rookie on the PGA Tour to someone famous enough to be invited into the White House and onto David Letterman's show.
That's what an improbable victory at the British Open will do for you.
``When I left there, I didn't think it would be that big of a deal coming home,'' the 26-year-old from Ohio said Tuesday. ``I didn't think the country would take me in like they did, to go to Letterman and to go meet the President, that topped it off. That was just an unbelievable, once-in-a-lifetime experience.''
Few knew who Curtis was when he began play in the British Open as the 396th-ranked player in the world. After winning the prestigious event on July 20, most at least recognize his name.
``You know you have to do something special for (the president) to invite you into the White House,'' Curtis said.
``Coming from virtually unknown to the No. 1 guy in golf at the time, it's very overwhelming. But I'm riding the wave right now and it's a lot of fun.''
Curtis will begin his quest to be more than just a one-win wonder on Thursday at the Buick Open, his first tournament since the big win. He will be in a field that includes defending champion Tiger Woods, U.S. Open champion Jim Furyk, Kenny Perry, Vijay Sing and Peter Jacobsen, who won last week's Greater Hartford Open.
``I want to go out there and prove to everybody that I belong out here and that the win was no fluke,'' Curtis said. ``But, time will tell. I feel that it should not just be based on this week, or the next few weeks. It should be based on between now and next summer.''
Curtis knows his life has not only changed off the course but on it as well.
When he is introduced Thursday, he will not just be ``Ben Curtis.'' He will be, ``2003 British Open champion Ben Curtis,'' and a crowd will gather to watch.
``I know the fans will be expecting a lot more form me,'' said Curtis, who withdrew from last week's tournament to spend time with family and friends. ``I'm just going to go out there and continue what I've been doing and hopefully, I'll keep getting better and have a chance to win a few more.''
When Curtis arrived at Warwick Hills, 60 miles north of Detroit, he could not simply show up for a practice round and leave quietly. Fans gathered around the practice green watching him, and there were kids waiting for autographs when he finished.
Curtis still wasn't done.
He was the featured attraction in the media tent, where he was peppered with questions by a slew of reporters, who he said will pose a new challenge.
``All of the eyes will be on me and they will be looking for a story,'' he said. ``I'm just going to have to try to block that out.''
Curtis, who spent the last two years on the Hooters Tour, qualified for the British Open two weeks before the major with a 13th-place finish in the Western Open. Before that, he had missed five cuts and finished between 27th and 75th at eight other tournaments this year.
``My year has been kind of up and down,'' he said. ``I would like to keep more consistent and get to that level where I can compete every week, just like Tiger does and Vijay.''

Habitat for Humanity provides homeownership opportunities for families who are in need of an affordable safe home outside of traditional purchase methods.
The charitable organization commonly faces the misconception that homes are provided free of charge. According to John van Leeuwen, the Executive Director of the Prince Albert chapter, this statement is "absolutely untrue."
"It is not a hand out," van Leeuwen said. "Homes are provided to the families for a 500 hours of sweat equity as a downpayment and at a 0% interest mortgage rate. … It's a hand up in their life, helping them break the cycle of poverty."
Homes are currently being funded through the generosity of donors, volunteer labour and through the payments received from the mortgages on homes already provided to families. The Saskatchewan Housing Corportation also recognizes the value of the work Habitat is doing in our local communities and has provided funding towards each home built by Habitat in Saskatchewan.
"Each dollar invested in a Habitat home not only invests in a family but returns to Habitat to be reinvested into future homes", states van Leeuwen. "All administration costs associated with our build program are covered through sales at our local Habitat ReStore. It's a fantastic program. When you donate, your money is reinvested over and over and over again."
Habitat for Humanity has constructed 21 homes for families in Prince Albert with 4 more currently under construction.
For one family, one of those houses has changed everything.
Chantal Clarke is in her final year of Social Work, and Shaun Mader is working towards his journeyman ticket as a mechanic. Together the couple applied to Habitat for Humanity two years ago for their three-year-old son Liam.
In Liam's first year of life, the family resided in a house affected by mold which lead to respiratory issues and sickness. In recent years, the family realized that their son had regressed into autism. The family has since moved on into a healthier environment in low-income housing, but they said they will feel more secure in their new home.
"With kids who are autistic, they thrive on routine and having a really stable environment," Clarke said. "That's the reason we applied for this program… This just helps us provide him with something more stable and concrete."
Clarke said not having to worry about programming or funding changes they receive through government agencies allows her and Mader to focus on Liam's childhood development.
"It's surreal, but we're really excited," Clarke said. "I think otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to get a mortgage so soon and it comes with a lot more security, getting a house through Habitat."
Clarke explained Habitat for Humanity's mortgage repayment program acts as a safety net for her small family; if their job situations change the terms of the mortgage are updated to reflect those changes.
Clarke and Mader are nearly complete in their sweat equity hours. The family split their time between volunteering at various worksites including their own home and Habitat for Humanity's ReStore building.
"Doing all the hours and seeing the whole process come to life has made us appreciate it more," Clarke said.
Clarke said her time with Habitat for Humanity has allowed the family to focus on their goals.
"We took some home ownership classes with them… the person facilitating the class asked us to write down our short and long term goals," Clarke said. "At the time it was really overwhelming writing that down… we're actually going through that list really quickly… it kinda gave us the push to really get things done."
2 additional homes are slated to begin construction in 2017. A ground breaking ceremony will take place on May 5th 2017 to introduce the families receiving the homes as well as to recognize the generosity of all who contribute to the homes.
Prince Albert Habitat also runs the Habitat ReStore located at 911 Marquis Road. Items such as furniture and building materials are available for purchase and the funds received cover the administration costs of the organization and provides funding to the build program.
"Almost all the materials we bring in are donated," Van Leeuwen said. "We carry a lot of used stuff, but we also carry a lot of new product." The local ReStore has new items such as hardware items lighting fixtures and accessories as well as the donated second hand products.
The local affiliate of Habitat relies on the Prince Albert community to support their work and donations of unwanted articles to the ReStore is a fantastic way to support their cause.
Another popular fundraising venture the organization does locally is the Playhouse Lottery. Tickets are currently on sale for the for one of Two playhouses offered can be purchased at the ReStore. Cost of a ticket is $10.00 and, the playhouses are on display at the ReStore. The draw will be made in July!
Those who wish to volunteer their time with Habitat for Humanity, or donate materials to the Restore can visit their location at 911 Marquis Road, or call 1-306-764-4662.

Leasing beats from music producers is one of the least costly ways to get great beats to download for your mixtape or album. A lease or nonexclusive gives you the ability to use the producers cool rap beats without costing you much. Buying a nonexclusive or leased beat s basically like renting the producers best with certain limitations but its perfect if you are working with a budget (read terms and conditions on the Contact page for limitations).

The Best Hotels in Reno, Nevada
Reno, Nevada is a breathtaking travel destination, offering up countless attractions, such as Lake Tahoe, the Great Reno Balloon Race, and Mount Rose Ski Resort. Nonetheless, when booking a trip to "The Biggest Little City in the World," finding the right hotel is extremely important for an enjoyable stay. Below you will find the best hotels to check out when in Reno.
The Concierge Hotel is one of the best hotels in Reno. The luxury hotel provides amazing views of Reno's mountain landscape. Also, all guests of this hotel have complete access to the concierge lounge on the 25th floor, which is stocked with a myriad of hors d'oeuvres and free breakfast in the morning. What can better than that?
The rooms and suites include two flat screen televisions; one in the living room and one in the bathroom. If you ever get the urge to go to a casino, all you have to do is venture downstairs to Atlantis Casino Resort Spa. It's a 60,000 square foot casino, which is fully stocked with slot machines and gaming tables. This is a great place to stay if you have the opportunity to visit!
If you looking to avoid all of the craziness of downtown Reno, the Peppermill Resort Spa Casino is a great place to stay. The Tuscan-themed hotel has so much offer, including 14 lounges, 2 outdoor pools, and 12 restaurants. You won't even think about going downtown.
Peppermill also has a large casino in the built in the hotel, which is convenient for all of you who enjoy gambling. Now, for those who don't enjoy gambling, you can happily spend your days soaking up the sun by the pool, enjoy a spa session, or go dancing at the EDGE nightclub.
Another bonus: the staff members are exceptional and are always looking to make you stay here even better.
If you are looking for a hotel not far from the Reno-Tahoe International Airport, then check out the Siena Hotel. Recently, the elegant Italian-style hotel transitioned into a non-gaming property, so if that's something you're looking to do, I would suggest you looking elsewhere.
Nonetheless, Siena Hotel has so much to offer, you'll never want to leave. The hotel grants a beautiful view of the Truckee River, and it's in close proximity to a collection of bars, restaurants and specialty shops. Located just 1.9 miles from historic downtown attractions, this a great place to go with family or friends.
The Eldorado Hotel Casino offers an incredible display of luxury rooms and spa suites. The modern rooms have rich, dark wood furniture and flat-screen TVs. The hotel is also decorated with all-new eye-catching neon lighting, which brightens the overall ambiance. Additionally, this hotel has a great variety of excellent restaurants that promise to lure you back after you've left. Whether you're traveling for business or pleasure, this incredible place is the ultimate choice among downtown Reno resorts and casinos.

text: I downloaded CHEAT (UE).zip from this site, put it on my computer, extracted it, and put the file into my R4's _system_ file and into each games' folder. However, the existence of those files as far as allowing me to pick the cheats to use and whatnot isn't being acknowledged. Why? Any help is appreciated. I may not be here when a response is given, though. I'll just read it later if that's the case. EDIT: Fixed. I tried to rename the cheat file I downloaded. I didn't know it would make a difference if I did or not, but it did. XP

If you remember, I photographed Kristen's maternity photos a couple months ago……well, those sweet little boys finally arrived and I was able to happily capture the new family of four! Lots of prayers were said for Terry and Kristen over the last several years and let's just say that Jalen and Jordan were the perfect Christmas blessings! I couldn't be happier for these two and they are already showing they are going to be awesome parents (not that there was ever a doubt ;)! Jalen and Jordan are so handsome, and they each have their own look…..thankfully, I could even tell them apart! I think Jalen looks like Terry and Jordan looks like Kristen! But don't be too confused on the pictures…..we managed to dress them in the wrong outfit after getting them naked for a few shots….oops! Terry and Kristen, congratulations again and I can't wait to get all of our boys together soon :)!
Jalen needed a little human pacifier :) Love his wrinkled forehead!
I think Terry's a proud papa!
Sweet baby boys!
Jalen….sweet smile :)
Perfectly content in mommy's arms!
This is Jalen….in his brother's outfit ;) I think he's keeping a close eye on me, ha!
And Jordan….
Even caught a smile!
I love baby feet….especially four of them!

Um, so Thanksgiving is in T-minus 5 days! Where the heck did time go? Seriously guys.
Before it got much later, I wanted to give a little shout-out to some of my favorite Thanksgiving dishes from the archives. These are things that are usually gracing my table come turkey day and I hope you love them too! There are, of course, many other recipes that would be great for your dinner and you can find many of them here under Thanskgiving/Fall in the recipe index.
Here are my favs…
Cranberry Fluff Salad
It's tangy, and tart, and sweet and you can totally get away with calling it a salad on Thanksgiving even though it's a sugar bomb laced with fruit. A very good sugar bomb, but a sugar bomb none-the-less. Recipe Here
Candied Coconut Sweet Potato Casserole
I think there's a reason the crazy marshmallow topped yam casserole thing only gets made once a year. Just sayin'. Oh, but this! This sweet potato casserole gives you sweet potatoes, coconut, and all the melty, buttery goodness you want on your Thanksgiving plate but I could eat this year round.
Buttery Dinner Rolls
This is my go-to roll recipe and shows up for dinner at our house often. They are so soft, buttery, and seriously hard to mess up. Who can resist a fresh, hot dinner roll?
Caramel Apple Pie
If you want something that is going to knock the already tight britches off your dinner guests this year, make this pie! Probably one of the best apple pies I've ever had. So good.
So that's that! What are you planning on making for your Thanksgiving dinner? I'd love to hear!

Writing it off !
Bio : Model, Actress, Singer, Brand, Business Woman, Fashion Designer, Author, Philanthropist and Empire.
I always thought she is just famous for being filthy rich and releasing her short videos which people in India call MMS. She has close to 4.8 million followers which is almost 100 times the followers our very own and equally talented Poonam Pandey has. I think India got her wrong, she's much more than what India think she is famous for.
Then, this Vinod Kambli's pic caught my attention. Later I realized that he has announced his retirement from cricket. Retirement!! I don't follow cricket that keenly but atleast know this much that he's not even part of any Ghatkopar or even Kandivali east cricket team, then what the hell is this retirement. Any how, wishing him the best of "retired" life, I moved on.

The Green Party argue that healthcare is not a commodity to be bought or sold. The National Health Service must provide healthcare, free at the point of need, funded through taxation. It must be a well financed, public service funded by, run by and accountable to local and national government and devoid of all privatisation, whether privatised administration, healthcare provision, support services or capital ownership. The NHS is concerned with healthcare provision and should not be subject to market forces either internal or external.
A publicly owned NHS
The Green Party seeks to repeal the 2012 Health and Social Care Act, and restore responsibility to the Minister of health to provide a comprehensive health service. It also seeks to repeal the right of the Minister of Health to close hospitals or hospital departments without effective public consultation.
The internal market
Market forces cannot allocate healthcare fairly, nor even efficiently. The internal market in the NHS has wasted badly needed resources on administration, and reduced the efficiency and morale of the whole system. The internal market opens the long-term possibility of further privatisation of the NHS. The internal market should be wound up and replaced with clear financial and service accountability of decentralised service units to regional assemblies within a single corporate whole.
Community Health Centres
The Green Party promotes diverting funding from centralised facilities towards community healthcare, illness prevention and health promotion. Community Health Centres will be the focal points for self-help and community-based initiatives and will also provide a wide range of services including primary healthcare, and health education and health promotion programmes. A variety of specialist services, in particular midwifery, obstetrics, family planning, counselling and psychiatry, will also be available. To permit the availability of the widest possible range of services and interventions, staff will be organised into multi-disciplinary teams. The public will be provided with easier direct access to nurse practitioners and other non-medical health and social care workers.
Maternity Services
All women will be entitled to the care of a single midwife through prenatal care, birth and the first month of post-natal care, in line with the model of care currently provided by independent midwives. This will be made possible by increased numbers of training places and initiatives to improve the recruitment and retention of midwives. Maternity units should be sufficient in number and located so that all women are within reasonable reach of one. Funds allocated for maternity services should be ringfenced to ensure that they are used for the intended purpose.
Community Services
Increased and protected funding of community services will enable healthcare as far as possible to be provided at home or in community-based facilities. Community services for frail elderly people and disabled people, including those with enduring mental and physical health problems or with learning difficulties will be increased to ensure everyone receives the support they need to live as independent and self-determined a life as possible based on their individual needs and circumstances.
Primary and hospital care will be more closely integrated. District staffing structures will be reviewed, with the aim of integrating hospital-based specialists into primary care and community health workers into hospital practice. The hospital programme will emphasise the development of appropriately sized district and community hospitals, with a reduced role for larger regional centres. However, some specialised services will continue to be provided on a regional or sub-regional basis.
Hospitals will focus on services for patients needing inpatient care. Accident and Emergency Departments will be for emergencies only with care for minor illnesses and injuries provided for by community health centres. We will require adequate night and weekend cover from consultants and diagnostic facilities in all hospitals dealing with emergency admissions.
The Green Party is opposed to the development of Foundation Hospitals which, although argued to be locally controlled, could actually result in reduced democratic accountability given that they will be unanswerable to parliament or local authorities. Foundation Hospitals are in fundamental opposition to the Green Party policy of the public health service remaining fully funded by public taxation, given that they are required to produce a profit and are able to seek commercial partnerships. This is likely to result in charging for ancillary services (disadvantaging the worse off), the reduction of medical education and training, the non-treatment of specialist or rare illnesses and early discharges. Foundation Hospitals risk undermining the principles of the NHS, creating a two- or multi-tier system of uneven provision. The Greens would abolish Foundation status, fully reintegrating any such hospitals into the NHS system.
Prescription Charges
The Green Party sees prescription and other charges as wrong in principle, unfair in practice, while generating little income for the Health Service. They will be abolished as soon as possible. The taxation system will require adjustment to compensate the Health Service for the revenue lost.
Essential dentistry, including check ups, is necessary basic healthcare, and should be provided free under the NHS.
Health spending in the UK needs to reflect the needs of the country and should be maintained at around the average in the European Union. The Green Party will continue to support the principle that the NHS is a national service, free at the point of entry and fully funded by taxation.
An NHS Tax, earmarked to increase direct funding of the NHS, shall be introduced as part of general income and other taxation. We believe this will have wide support.
Health Service spending will be reviewed regularly, with a view to increasing the resources invested in health promotion, illness prevention, community care and community development, relative to spending on curative interventions.
NHS workers
Workers in the NHS have been underpaid, undervalued and ignored. They remain some of the most overworked in our society despite the importance of their day-to-day decisions and actions. The multitude of local staff contracts and conditions will be simplified within a clear regional structure. Privatisation of ancillary services will cease and be reversed, so that all NHS workers of a particular grade can expect the same terms within the same region. Collective bargaining arrangements will be strengthened and honoured. A particularly urgent commitment will be to reduce all staff working hours to a maximum in line with the Working Time Directive.
The Green Party deplores the poaching of healthcare professionals from other less privileged countries. Conditions and wages of nurses, and also doctors, need to rise to encourage more British people to train as nurses and doctors. The NHS will not be allowed proactively to recruit non-British healthcare staff overseas by any means, including overseas advertising or direct approaches. The Green Party will actively seek ways of ensuring that healthcare skills are shared between countries including by offering exchange opportunities to students and qualified staff.
General Practice
General Practices are predominantly run as small businesses and therefore are insufficiently accountable to local people and government. The Green Party will introduce a new model of General Practice to be adopted when new practices open. This new model will be based on practices being patient-owned co-operatives. Patients will be able to have a strong voice in their primary care provision and staff in the practices will be directly accountable to their patients. Primary care co-ops will be open to all potential patients to join and we will ensure that there are appropriate safeguards around membership, governance and provision.
Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership
The Green Party believes that the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), which aims at removing the regulatory differences between the US and the EU, is an assault on democracy. It would likely lead to the weakening of EU social and environmental legislation and ensure that new European legislation does not stand in the way of corporate interests. The Green Party will make protection of the environment, workers' rights, health (including the NHS) and animal welfare from TTIP a campaign issue.

Discover the True Wonder of Christmas
What is the true wonder of Christmas? You might think of things that give you that 'Christmas feeling' – lights, decorations, celebrations, the giving and receiving of gifts, family traditions and togetherness. But for many, the Christmas festivities only mask an aching emptiness or a painful solitude. For all of us, the Christmas festivities can do no more than temporarily disguise a soul-deep need that we all have, a need that we recognize when we see that the things of this life simply don't satisfy for more than a moment, that life is too short…that it comes to an end.
DISCOVER THE TRUE WONDER OF CHRISTMAS – God sent His Son to give us everlasting life. That's what Christmas is all about. It's summed up in these words: "For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16) If you know nothing of the Bible, you want to start here. If you know everything in the Bible, you want to return here. For here we find the answer to the biggest questions in life, and here we find the solution to the biggest problem in life. God answered and solved it all by sending His Son into the world. He was born to bear our sin, He lived to die for us, and He rose from death to give us life. "Whoever believes in Him shall not perish" - and whoever includes YOU! So come, put your trust in the One who was born to be your Savior. Come and worship Him. Come and DISCOVER THE TRUE WONDER OF CHRISTMAS.
Come visit us at CHRIST OUR REDEEMER for more of this message of God's grace!

Non-Verbal Information Storage in Humans and Developmental Information Processing Channel Capacity.
Randhawa, Bikkar S.
This study was designed to ascertain the nature of information storage in humans and to determine the channel capacity of Ss at various stages of development. A 3 x 2 x 2 multivariate complete factorial design was employed: the three levels of the first factor (Age) were 5, 8, and 12 years; the two levels of the second factor were Visual and Verbal inputs; and the two levels of the third factor were Reconstruction and Verbal Description. One hundred and twenty children, 40 at each age level, were randomly selected and assigned 10 each to each treatment. Ss were tested individually. The results indicated that information is stored in nonverbal form in such tasks. The nonverbal image storage is affected differently by the developmental level of the Ss. (Author)

Bed and Breakfasts (B&Bs) and Guest Houses
These are family homes where you can sleep for the night and have breakfast in the morning (some also offer evening meals e.g. table d'hôte style), also known as B&Bs, chambres d'hôtes and a variety of other names in different countries. Essentially bed and breakfasts (B&Bs) and guest houses are family homes which offers you the chance to stay with the family for the night in a much more personal environment than you'd find in a hotel. The buildings themselves range from humble cottages through to luxurious castles, from mas to maison du maître but always offering you the opportunity to experience the personal attention you'd thought had long since disappeared. If you've only stayed in hotels before, you'll find a refreshing change from the standardised hotel rooms. Each B&B or guest house is also the owners' home so you can expect a wide variation in the decoration and services offered: one night you can dine with an ex-Michelin chef, the next it'll be "the wife" (or perhaps "the husband") that does the cooking.

A drone saved the life of two distressed young swimmers caught in high surf in a beach near Lennox Head, in New South Wales, Australia.
A group of Australian lifeguards was testing the use of drones in lifesaving operations when they spotted two boys in trouble using the unmanned aerial vehicle's (UAV) camera.
And what was supposed to be practice flight became a real-life rescue. In no more than 70 seconds, the drone flew above the young men and released the inflatable rescue pod.

British surfers are three times more likely to have antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) in their intestines than non-surfers.
The study conducted by the University of Exeter in conjunction with environmental organization Surfers Against Sewage revealed that wave riders ingest ten times more ocean water than people who swim in the sea and don't surf.
Researchers asked UK surfers to provide fecal samples to assess whether their guts contained E. coli bacteria that were able to grow in the presence of a widely used antibiotic - cefotaxime.

The Irish authorities have authorized the Trump International Golf Links and Hotel Ireland to build two giant two seawalls at Doughmore Beach.
The Clare County Council approved the project that will install two massive concrete walls of 688 yards (630 meters) and 284 yards (260 meters) in length on a public beach.
Doughmore Beach is one of the most popular beach destinations in Ireland, and it is also one of the best and most consistent beach breaks in the country.
