I used to think the crazy healthy cooking is difficult–that it takes years of training and practice to learn how to make nutritious meals.
Thankfully, I was wrong. I just wish I had known then, what I know now.
Crazy healthy cooking is actually quite simple, once we learn which foods fortify our bodies, and how to maximize their flavor during the cooking process. When we learn to trust our own instincts, and rely on our intuition more than cookbooks, we empower ourselves to create nutritious meals that lead us to a healthier life.
Admittedly, it took me a while to figure this out. I followed other people's recipes for years, before l realized that I was working harder than necessary, to feed my family healthy meals. I wore myself out, trying to prepare multiple dishes that would all be ready at the same time, running to the grocery store for forgotten items, and beating myself up for not getting things "just right".
Until one day I realized that my meals didn't need to be complicated. Simple dishes can actually taste better than complex concoctions. Less really could be more, when it came to cooking delicious, healthy foods.
I started simplifying recipes, and eliminating unnecessary ingredients whenever possible. Instead of trying to follow recipes to a "T", I explored new, creative ways to bring out the best flavors of fresh, healthy foods. Most of the time, this meant less ingredients, and less cooking time. Cooking became less burdensome, and I actually enjoyed being in the kitchen, for the first time in my life.
I was amazed that, with a little high heat oil, proper cooking utensils, and a few basic spices, I could prepare almost anything to my family's liking. I spent less time preparing food, and found it easier to time my dishes, so they all came out the oven at the same time.
This blog is all about learning to let go, so we can live well. In my next few posts, I will share tips and stories about how I learned to let go of cooking with recipes, and empowered myself to cook nutritious meals more efficiently and effectively.
Follow along here, and on the Facebook page for My Crazy Healthy Life, as I share techniques and practices that make crazy healthy cooking as simple as 1-2-3.
Crazy Healthy Cooking In Three Simple Steps
1. Learn how to prepare whole foods as close to their natural state as possible, to maximize their flavor and nutrient content.
2. Keep the pantry stocked with good quality essentials.
3. Get comfortable with working with what is available.
Stay tuned for more on each of these topics in the next few weeks, and let me know what questions you have about this series. I appreciate your comments and feedback–thank you for joining me in this crazy healthy life!

Wealth management is running strong at Stifel, as the firm reported pretax profits at the division rose 24% over a year ago.
First quarter profits for Stifel's advisory business rose to $99 million from $79 million for the same period a year ago. Net revenues rose to a record $329 million, up more than 10% from $297 million. The firm said that the strong performance was driven by a higher number of fee-based accounts.
The strong quarter for Stifel's wealth management division mirrors growth at competing firms Wells Fargo and Morgan Stanley. Morgan Stanley reported a 27% increase in profits, while profits at Wells Fargo's Wealth, Brokerage and Retirement unit climbed 18%.
During an analyst call, Stifel CEO Ronald Kruszewski said that the firm's $150 million acquisition of Birmingham, Ala.-based Sterne Agee was expected to close near the end of the month. He added that Stifel believes it can retain up to100% of Stern Agee's financial advisors. Total advisor headcount for Stifel in the first quarter fell slightly, down six to 2,079 from the previous quarter.
Kruszewski also took aim at the Department of Labor's proposed fiduciary rule, saying that the proposal would force non-managed IRAs to shift to managed IRAs, driving up costs.
"The DoL's proposal is exceedingly complicated and, absent modifications, would restrict investor choice," Kruszewski said. "The proposal's negative impact on investors would be on those who could least afford it."
Kruszewski added that while the proposal could raise revenues, the firm believes the cost to investors and firms would be too great.
Stifel reported profits of $43 million for the whole company, down 9% from the year ago period.

Soccer Safety and Injuries
When you bring your children to practices or games, make sure they are not wearing watches or jewelry including earrings, bracelets, necklaces or hard hairpieces. No splints are allowed, and
taping earrings does not make them safe for soccer. If you have any questions about whether an item is appropriate, ask the coaches prior to practices/games.

Chicago's biggest spiders are nearly the size of your hand
CHICAGO — The largest spiders living in Chicago are almost the size of your hand, but you almost certainly will never see them in your house.
The two biggest spiders that can be found in the wild within city limits are the Argiope aurantia (orb weaver) and dolomedes tenebrosus (dark fishing spider), according to Petra Sierwald, associate curator at Field Museum.
Click here for more on this story from DNAinfo.
Sierwald said neither spider will come into houses, at least not in the city, but if you have a cabin in Wisconsin, you occasionally might see one inside. Chicagoans can find both spiders in city forest preserves or in their backyard, Sierwald said.

The importance of photographs
Should you have a professional photo of your family? It is a wonderful way of capturing children as they grow but there is a more compelling reason. I have taken a number of photographs that have later been the cherished image of a person that has died. It is hard to put a value on such an item when it becomes almost a representation of that person to family and loved ones. I have shot a number of family photos that included an image of a family member that has died. Being aware of this has certainly added heightened responsibility when shooting portraits. It was interesting to see the issue raised in an Allison Monkhouse ad as it is often at funerals that the value of the photo of the deceased is first realised. Have you a photo you would like to remember your family by?

How JavaScript impacts page loading speed on mobile
The effect of JavaScript on mobile web performance is twofold.
One, it is the second largest contributor to webpage weight, behind images, thereby increasing download time; and two, once downloaded, the browser then needs to run the script, which can delay the downloading/rendering of other (perhaps more important) assets on the page.
JavaScript (aka scripts or JS) is one of the triumvirate of technologies that make web pages (and web apps) work. The HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) controls the structure and content of the webpage; CSS (Cascade Styling Sheets) controls how the site looks on different devices; and JavaScript makes the page more interactive and dynamic.

See a Bear-Shaped Pillow Meant to Keep You From Snoring
Behold: a bear-shaped pillow to keep the peace ... and quiet.
At the recent 19th International Robot Exhibition in Tokyo, a bear-shaped pillow demonstrated how its sensors can pick up on oxygen and decibel levels, which enact the bear's "paw" to "tickle your face," causing you to move your head and, consequently, sleep quietly. You had us up until the whole "tickling the face" thing, Bear Pillow Inventor. That's just gross and weird, although we're onboard with the rest of it. [Awl]

There's no good excuse. I guess I just got carried away. Because the summer garden was finally planted (except for the root crops which prefer a 3rd quarter moon).

We're kicking off our HOT In 2016 Awards with San Mateo, a place near and dear to our hearts (figuratively and literally).
You've probably never heard of San Mateo.
But every day, we spend the majority of our waking hours in this mid-sized California city. Located in the Bay Area's mid-Peninsula, San Mateo is approximately equidistant from two of America's largest metropolitan centers, with San Francisco to the north and San Jose to the south. And besides being home to Owler, San Mateo has much to offer.
San Mateo is filled with shops and restaurants with easy access to the nature that surrounds it. Central Park, a quick five minute walk from our headquarters, houses a 122-year-old Japanese Tea Garden complete with a teahouse and koi pond. With two Michelin restaurants and a variety of ethnic and locally sourced dining options, this 100,000-person city is perfect for foodies.
And a little known fact: in 1880, California's first millionaire, Alvinza Hayward, made his home in Hayward Park, a San Mateo neighborhood that now bears his name.
Plus, as a staple of Silicon Valley, business here is booming.
We're proud to share a city with some of the biggest movers in tech, growing companies who are reshaping the landscape of business.
Since every year, Owler's HOT In Awards recognize standout companies in cities around the world based on our community insights, we wanted to dedicate a post to acknowledging some of our hottest neighbors.
Coupa Software
With over 10,000 followers, Coupa Software is one of the most popular companies on Owler. And for good reason: Coupa is growing strong and fast; they recently had an IPO. Plus, as CEO Rob Bernshteyn explains, nearly half of Coupa employees use Owler each day to keep up with sales prospects, monitor customers, and track their competition.
Marketo, a five-time Gartner Magic Quadrant Leader for CRM Lead Management, boasts over 22,000 followers on Owler. Additionally, Marketo includes Owler in their Launchpoint Partner Ecosystem; Owler complements their software to help customers to help transform their Account Based Marketing strategy.
This sales and marketing software company strives to help customers orchestrate personalized marketing, sales, and success efforts. Owler is also included on their Account Based Everything Market Map in their Account Insights category to help brands understand what is relevant and resonant at an account level.

Hi Everyone, 🙂
I wanted to do a full on colorful eye makeup look today. So I picked up the brightest turquoise and paired it with navy and black. The turquoise eyeshadow is mostly on the inner third of the eye and rest is naby eyeshadow on the outer corner. To deep(nd) the crease I have used a bit of a black. For waterline,I wanted to play with a coloured eyeliner so went with this fun sea green eyeliner. I kept rest of the face makeup a bit heavy for the look because the eye makeup was full on so I wanted to balance the rest of the look with my face makeup. It's the kind of look you wear it to a party, pair with with your Indian wear or just wear it with bold black and white. I hope you like it and give it a try! 🙂 Have a great day ahead all of you. 🙂

Independence docked under owner Mark Pisanos hand at Pt. Loma Sportfishing May 24. Her 31 anglers got limits of yellowtail on a seven-day trip sponsored by Big Fish Bait & Tackle. The boat caught fish in water from 58 to 64 degrees, and visited most of the major known spots between San Diego and Thetis Bank. Chartermaster Gary Buddenbohm got a 37.8-pounder himself.
We went to Thetis, the 38, the 23, Uncle Sam Bank, Hipolito, the Benitos and Cedros Islands, and Chester Rocks, said Gary. We had good yellowtail fishing, with quality fish, some in the 40s. Most were on the yoyo jigs and flylined baits. Chester Rocks was very good on the flyline and yoyo jigs. And we got some big reds, too.
Jerry Sussman of Westlake Village fished with his bass outfit to bag a 52.8-pound whopper mossback on a sardine and a 6/0 Super Mutu hook. Describing himself as a 67-year-old OF, Sussman said he used 30-pound Izorline, an Avet SX reel and a Lamiglas seven-foot rod, and that he got his best yellowtail ever after it took him around the boat three times.
Robert Galloway of Palmdale bagged a 43-pounder for second place, and Richard Neese of Torrance won third place for a 41.8-pound yellowtail.
Asked about what hes seen on the trip, skipper Pisano said, Im waiting for the albacore, with this cooler water around. It needs to settle out. There's lots and lots of plankton, a heavy feed layer.

A Disappointment
The novel is set in a milieu that is ripe for deep consideration of issues of war, home, bigotry, fascism and faith, namely, Lisbon in the late 1930s, a city filled with refugees fleeing Europe and trying to find new countries to accept them. But the novel focuses instead on four shallow, silly people who act like spoiled teenagers out of Gossip Girls. The narrator is a car salesman; the other couple write mystery novels under a pseudonym. The characters are disengaged from the war and nearly oblivious to the tragedies around them, both in Lisbon and in Europe. No doubt there were plenty of dull, disengaged people trying to leave Europe at that time, but it's not something worth reading about. The audiobook narrator had a good sense of voice for the characters.

Far from Leavitt's greatest work
I'm wondering whether this is a different "David Leavitt". It's a bit painful to be honest. The way in which the main characters meet is a slapstick comedy of sorts, but not a good one. Peter's glasses are stepped on accidentally by Edward. As Peter is short sighted this leaves Peter effectively blind. From that point it's embarrassing how often Leavitt has Peter stumble and fall into Edward's manly arms (I think it's three times within this initial meeting). Once was too cliché. Three times...is pressing the point a little too hard. As this is the opening of the book it is difficult to forgive and move on.
The rest of the book has comedic elements with plenty of light comedy characters (in particular Iris's dog), but thankfully nothing as bad as that first piece.
The sexual attraction is never quite convincing. It's more awkward than anything else and it's difficult to find what Pete and Edward see in each other. Ditto the friendship between the two couples - they have very little in common & it's hard to imagine them wanting to spend time in each other's company.
The Lost Language of Cranes and Equal Affections are both significantly superior works by Leavitt - each is absolutely engaging and enjoyable. By comparison The Two Hotel Frankfort's is so flat. It picks up right at the very end, but it's too little, too late.

As you all know Silverlight 5 released with unrestricted access in InBrowser mode which gives full control to the Silverlight developers in the client machine. This post is to describe what are the changes you need to do at the server side as well as client side to leverage the trusted application feature.
- Server side
- Make the IB elevated from project properties
- Sign the xap using certificate.
- Client side
- Install the cert into "trusted publishers"
- Change the reg key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Silverlight\AllowElevatedTrustAppsInBrowser" to 1
- The "Protected mode" of browser should be turned off for the zone.
The above steps are mainly for Silverlight 4 to Silverlight 5 conversion and want to get the full trust support. If you just upgrading your projects there is no need to do above items. Just open in Visual Studio 2010 after installing the SL 5 tools.It will show the conversion wizard and just follows that. One thing you need to make sure is the reference path to Sl 5 assemblies.
Steps to setup Silverlight 5 application to have unrestricted access in IB using elevated trust mode
Ok.Now lets look at details of how we can create new SL project which access a file from c:\ in the In-Browse mode.First as usual create a Silverlight 5 Application. Then place a Button inside and wire the Click event handler.Write the below code in the handler to write a file to c:\
private void btnWriteToCDrive_Click ( object sender, RoutedEventArgs e ) { File.WriteAllText(@"c:\FromSL5.txt","This is written from Silverlight 5 web application in InBrowser mode"); }
Giving Elevated trust to SL 5 application
Just to go to the Silverlight 5 project properties and in the Silverlight tab check the "Require elevated trust when running in-browser" check box.See the below screen shot for reference.
Signing the xap
Next step is to sign the xap file with a certificate. Just goto Silverlight project properties and check the "Sign the Xap File" check box.If you don't have any certificate just create a new one using the "Create Test Certificate" button.
Disable the browser protected mode
The above changes are mainly for the server side. You need to do some at client side as well.The first one is to disable the protected mode in browser.Goto the internet options and disable it.
Change registry entry
As mentioned above just change the registry entry as it is.If you cant find the key just add a DWORD and set to 1. Still I am not sure how this step is carried out in other platforms such as MAC and Linux.
That's it.Now run your application.

Norrie's Disease Defined Norrie's Disease is a congenital abnormality. Blindness at birth, with bilateral retinal pseudotumor, retinal detachment, phthisis(ty-sis), deafness, and intellectual disabilities (Cassin and Rubin) Lauren Mehalek
and Dan Ackley Image 1: http://faculty.alverno.edu/bowneps/BI%20231%20course%20documents/Anatomy%20sheets/Sensory%20Organs_files/eye.JPG Abnormal development of the retina and immature retina cells develop on the back of the eye... ...causing the pupils to appear white when light is shone on them (Norrie's Disease, 2007). Image 1 Image 1 Image 2 Image 1: http://faculty.alverno.edu/bowneps/BI%20231%20course%20documents/Anatomy%20sheets/Sensory%20Organs_files/eye.JPG
Image 2: http://o.quizlet.com/i/c8mvwLT6_MsO6iuBxoN0Bw_m.jpg -Causes- Norrie's Disease is a genetic disorder caused by the mutation of an X-chromosome, making the disease much more common amongst the male population (Norrie's Disease, 2007). Norrie Disease
Association Mission Statement: NDA exists to promote awareness about and provide resources for those with Norrie Disease (ND) and their family members
NDA provides links to additional resources for support, activities, and educational resources for people with visual impairments. OVERVIEW Norrie's Disease Congenital: present at birth, as a congenital anomaly or defect.
Bilateral: having two sides, occurring or appearing on two sides or having two layers.
Retinal: pertaining to the retina.
Pseudotumor: a false tumor. Retinal Detachment: a separation of the retina from the retinal pigment epithelium in the back of the eye.
Phthisis(Ty-sis): any wasting disease involving all or part of the body, such as pulmonary tuberculosis.
X-linked: pertaining to genes or to the characteristics or conditions they transmit that are carried on the x chromosome.
XX: female XY: male Medical Language/Terminology Medical Language/Terminology Age of Onset is at birth
or at a very young age. -Age of Onset- Norrie disease is a rare X-linked genetic disorder which causes males to be totally blind at birth or become blind in both eyes at a young age. Most males with Norrie disease experience hearing impairment and up to half of males with the disorder also have developmental delays, intellectual disabilities, or behavioral abnormalities. Norrie disease runs in families because it is passed down through one of the chromosomes that determines gender (X-chromosome). Norrie's Disease: What is it? (Norrie Disease Association) Details Of The Disease Details Of The Disease Anatomical Structure Anatomical Structure (Norrie Disease Association) Congenital blindness(primary symptom)
Intellectual disabilities
Yellowish mass visible
behind the lens
This is Pseudotumor of the retina
Developmental delays
Cognitive problems
Behavioral abnormalities -Common Symptoms- Details Of The Disease (Norrie Disease Association) -Treatment- Details Of The Disease (Norrie Disease Association) Patients who have not completely lost their vision may be treated with surgery or laser therapy in infancy. Hearing loss can be treated with hearing aids and cochlear implants. Behavioral abnormalities and intellectual disabilities can be treated through counseling, medications, and care by special education professionals. Men with Norrie disease may need varying degrees of assistance from family, friends and caretakers, but lead full and
rewarding lives. Otherwise healthy mothers may carry a mutated gene which causes the disease. These mothers may pass the gene on to their sons, who then develop the disease. Some sons, however, will not receive the gene and will grow up to be completely healthy. There is a 50% statistical risk of a carrier mother passing on the mutated X-chromosome. Norrie's Disease: What is it? (Norrie Disease Association) A daughter may also receive the mutated gene if her mother is a carrier. Again the statistical risk to the daughter of inheriting the mutated X-chromosome is 50%. If the daughter inherits the Norrie gene, she will become a carrier, and like her mother, have a 50% chance of passing the gene on to her own children. Because the risk of inherited the disease mutation in a daughter is 50%, half of the daughters of carriers do not even inherit the gene. These females will be completely normal and will not pass the Norrie gene on to their children.
Sometimes males with Norrie disease have children. No sons of these men will inherit the gene and, therefore, can not develop the disease. Daughters of a father with Norrie disease, on the other hand, will all be carriers of the mutated gene.
It is possible, but extremely rare, for Norrie disease to occur by spontaneous gene mutation. In this case, neither parent carries Norrie mutation and genetic risk in this family is limited to offspring of the person with the gene mutation [male or female]. (Norrie Disease Association) -Prognosis- Details Of The Disease Although Norrie disease itself does not seem to shorten lifespan, individuals with blindness, deafness and/or intellectual disabilities may have a reduced lifespan as a result of these conditions.
Norrie disease affects each individual differently, even within the same family, as there is a spectrum of symptoms and severity. --Other Implications- Details Of The Disease Resources Patient may develop cataracts, leudocoria(a condition where the pupils appear white), shrinking of the globe of the eye, and the wasting away of the iris.
(Norries Disease 2007) Clicker Question #1 Clicker Question #3 Clicker Question #2 Norrie's Disease
History 1961 Mette Warburg-Danish Opthalmologist-
She found that a Danish family showed seven different cases of a hereditary disease throughout seven generations. She suggested the disease be named after Gordon Norrie, another famous Danish opthalmologist (McKusik 1986). Norrie's Disease
History Mette Warburg Gordon Norrie A rare form of hereditary blindness (Norrie Disease Association) Norrie's Disease Lauren Mehalek
and Dan Ackley Conclusion Are there any questions? (Elsevier 2009) (Elsevier 2009) Educational Implications Because of vision loss, some students with Norries syndrome may need to access text through touch or tactile reading, this can be done by learning braille
Some students with Norries syndrome may also need accommodations at school to reach their full learning potential which can often be done through special education services

OCSA's Commitment to Quality Improvement
Over the past year, we have learned a great deal about Quality Improvement in Home and Community Support. Through our survey, we learned that Quality Improvement is a very high priority with sector leaders. We also learned that across the sector, organizations are at different stages in their quality journeys. While many are seeking a better understanding of QI methodology and tools, others are starting to develop quality improvement plans, finding ways to capture and understand their client's experiences in meaningful ways, and reflecting on the role of the board and senior leadership in improvement.
OCSA is committed to supporting the Home and Community Support sector to achieve our common goal of providing the highest quality experience to clients. I'm proud that OCSA can arrange this avenue for continuous improvement, and that all CSS providers are able to take ownership of developing a better tomorrow for the people we serve.
With warmest regards,
Deborah Simon

Is it true - as is often assumed - that the Dutch 'poldermodel' of consensual politics had its origins in the medieval models of water management? Has the necessity of intensive collaboration to combat the dangers of sea and river flooding in these low-lying and wet parts created a political culture of participation, consensus and compromise? This project seeks to investigate the governance of water management institutions before the emergence of modern democracy. It is set within the wider debate about the contribution of pre-modern corporate institutions in the creation of prosperous societies. The project uses Dutch polders as laboratories to see if and how participation and representation improved the quality of water management. The Dutch epxerience is compared to those in adjacent regions, such as Flanders and Northern Germany.The project is a collaboration between Utrecht University, the Huygens ING Institute and the Free University in Amsterdam.

Peyton Manning vehemently denies an Al Jazeera undercover investigation that claims the quarterback used human-growth hormone to recover from his neck injuries in 2011.
"The allegation that I would do something like that is complete garbage and is totally made up," Peyton Manning told ESPN's Chris Mortensen. "It never happened. Never. I really can't believe somebody would put something like this on the air. Whoever said this is making stuff up."
Not only does Manning deny the charge, but the source that Al Jazeera relied upon to make it does too. Charlie Sly, a former student intern for the Guyer Institute in Indiana, says he namedropped Manning in an effort to see if Al Jazeera's undercover reporter, track-and-field athlete Liam Collins, grasped the subject matter or was just another joker. Whether he used the names of professional athletes to boost his credentials, in an effort to feel out Collins, or told the truth when he spoke on the recordings remains unclear.
"When I realized Al Jazeera was using a secret taping and Collins as a so-called investigative reporter, I was baffled," Sly told ESPN. "I cannot believe that can happen. That's why I recanted the story. It wasn't true, and I was trying to pull one over on Collins to see if he had any idea of what he was talking about. I was trying to determine whether this guy [Collins] was legitimate or just trying to steal some knowledge about the business."
But Sly gave another story to Liam Collins. "Another time that I worked with Peyton, him and his wife would come in after hours and get IVs and s—," Sly says in a recording. "All the time we would be sending growth hormone, all the time, everywhere."
Manning confirms he received treatment at the Guyer Institute and Sly worked there briefly. Sly says on a recording of Guyer issuing human-growth hormone, "I know for a fact he does." He expresses surprise that the Guyer Institute has not been shut down.
The documentary, The Dark Side: The Secret World of Sports Doping, touts "extraordinary claims that raise questions whether an American sporting hero, Peyton Manning, is linked to performance-enhancing drugs." Collins employs hidden cameras, taped phone calls, and other undercover methods to glean information from medical professionals. Al Jazeera kept the drugs supplied to their athlete-reporter as evidence.
Other athletes named in the documentary include Chicago Cubs player Taylor Teagarden, Green Bay Packers linebacker Mike Neal, Washington Nationals infielder Ryan Zimmerman, Pittsburgh Steelers James Harrison, and Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Ryan Howard. Mike Neal didn't respond to Al Jazeera. The other athletes deny the allegations. Sly says of the Green Bay Packers, "More than half the team started coming by."
One Canadian pharmacist explains in the documentary, "I'm not going to lie. Have I doped people? Oh, yeah. And no one's got caught because the system is so easy to beat. And it still is, that's the sad fact. I can take a guy with average genetics and I can make him world champion."
The Indianapolis Colts call the report "utterly ridiculous" and Manning called it a "freaking joke" in a second discussion with ESPN.

I am so excited! Our neighbor just had their long awaited foal this morning. No problems, just woke up and there she was. A brand new filly.
I got the word, like an expectant parent and off I went to get some photographs! Only hours old, but she looks so old to me. Tall and jumping around. She already is nosey and wants to check things out. Momma is not so friendly just yet. She's still on the protective side.
Here are afew of the little darling.
Spring took a long time to arrive this year. Many snow storms later we finally found the bare ground. But that brings the bla's to photograpghy. You know the time, no more white stuff, all the dead fall, brown gray colours appear and everything looks dreary. This is my biggest challenge of the year. Finding the beauty in my own backyard. (when I'm craving exotic lands and wildlife to capture with camera and lens. I take it as a challenge and try to get my creative eye working. I believe taht if I can make this time of year look good , well then the rest of the seasons are a piece of cake. If you know wheat I mean!! Here are a few images I have created in the last couple weeks since the snow started melting.
On March 21-24th, the Provost Midgets will be hosting provincials at the arena in Provost Alberta.

Welcome to our new site. It is Time for new. New website, new blog, new sessions, new prices.....with the same people that care. We care about your photos, your memories, and your experience with us. It was time for change. I was spending way too much time running the business and not enough time taking the photographs that make this a business. That is the one thing that I wish I could change, but until I have someone that has extraordinary powers, skills, and will work for peanuts or photographs. I guess I will just keep trying my best, and doing what I love to do. Take pictures, creating art, and preserving memories.
Sessions will be suited to your needs. If you are needing a few quick photos to update your Christmas newsletter, Christ cards, or gifts for family but nothing too fancy. (Don't want to line up at Sears, Walmart etc)
I have KIS (Keep it Simple) sessions. You can book in 20 minute time slots (20, 40 or 60 minutes) depending on your needs and how many people in the photos. Each group of 2 will need about 20 minutes to get all the great shots, combos, poses. So if you have a family of 4 you can probably get away with a 40 minute session. It will give us approx 20 photos to choose from.
I will continue to have my Signature sessions, but am adding digital sessions for those that are Do it Your selvers and want to create your own gifts, cards, books etc.
Signature sessions are sold as packages with add ons available. These are un-rushed and specialized for your families needs.
Newborn PURE LOVE (within the 1st 3 weeks while sleepy and can be positioned easily) , Cake SMASH (Happy 1st Birthday) unlimited clothing changes complete with a cake smash and fun. First year collection. (newborn, 6 months and 1 year sessions), Family Lifestyle (where I capture you interacting with your family, great for kids under 10 that hate posing and boring photos) Album sessions (works with family, grads, children, or engagements: where I take the best from a session and design an album that is included in your session. and New Digital Sessions where you get the digital files and a print release.
I will also offer mini theme sessions 4 times a year and will be offered to Facebook fans and Blog readers 1st. They will be limited sessions available and of course will fill up quickly. (so be prepared to book fast) Mini themes will be Christmas cards, Halloween, Beach Babies, Picnic in the Park, Mothers Day and Fathers day type sessions. Dates to be announced about 1 month before date.

text: Dirty Projectors continue their journey into R&B with one of their smoothest tracks yet. It seems the stylistic shift present in "Little Bubble," and "Keep Your Name" has something to do with Dave Longstreth's contributions to Solange's A Seat at the Table (our album of the year!), and we're certainly eager for more of this sound.

Hello traders,
I have Doda-Donchian indicator. I have some problem with this indicator when I used to backtest on Strategy Tester. I take Doda indicator to Chart while empty EA running on Strategy Tester. In Resistance Line 1, 2, 3 Pivot Level, Support Line 1,2,3, each one of them have their own value while tester is running. Tester running on 1st week, 2nd week and 3rd week. But Resistance Line, Pivot Line, Support Lines values didn't change during all date on Strategy Tester. I don't know why.
Can you tell me this problem?
When I pause Strategy Tester, I show Doda indicator properties. After click to OK button, indicators RL, Pivot Line, SLines change their own value. But why?
Next question is I used to iCustom("Doda-Donchian".,...,....) function, but problem is similar previous one.

A man sexually assaulted his victim and filmed the abuse on his phone for his own "perverted pleasure", a court heard.
Rawdon Hume was sentenced at Cardiff Crown Court after admitting 26 counts including sexual assault, voyeurism, possessing indecent images of children and extreme pornography.
Judge Jeremy Jenkins described the offending as "vile" and "determined".
The court heard police searched the 35-year-old computer engineer's home on April 5 and seized his laptop and phone.
James Wilson, prosecuting, said officers found indecent images of the most serious category A, as well as categories B and C.
He told the court the videos showed children aged between 10 and 12.
Officers also found more than 100 images of extreme pornography involving animals.
Mr Wilson said police then found videos, lasting for up to 15 minutes, that the defendant had recorded of himself sexually assaulting a victim.
Hume was interviewed by police on April 5, 6 and 7 and admitted all the offences but stated they were not sexually motivated.
He told officers he started viewing indecent images of children "out of a morbid curiosity that got out of hand".
The defendant also stated he had developed a "fascination" with the subject of the extreme pornography.
Prosecutors said the victim did not wish to make a personal statement.
Hume, from Graig-y-Rhacca in Caerphilly, pleaded guilty to sexual assault, voyeurism, possessing indecent images of children and possessing extreme pornography.
Heath Edwards, defending, said his client had no previous convictions.
He told the court Hume was "utterly devastated" and could not provide a real explanation for his behaviour.
The defence barrister said his client was born in Australia and had a "tragic upbringing" as he was bullied at school and suffered close family bereavements at a young age.
Mr Edwards told the court despite that Hume had built himself a successful career in IT and become "a positive member of society".
He said the defendant was struggling with his work-life balance and believes he should have sought counselling.
The defence barrister added: "He is deeply sorry for what he did."
Judge Jenkins confirmed he did not consider Hume to be a dangerous offender and did not think an extended sentence was necessary.
In his sentencing remarks, he said: "This was determined sexual abuse, which you carried out for your own gratification."
Hume was jailed for nine years and four months and the judge imposed an indefinite Sexual Harm Prevention Order.

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
I'm sure you could easily have an identical guitar with different pickups and find room for them both in a collection. Having a Larry Carlton axe would be very useful and versatile though. A chimey middle position sounds like a nice thing. Sometimes middle can be a bit muddy with humbuckers, to me. I bet you're happy
Thanks Nick! To be honest, I was too focused on the detail aspect, and not considering the broader picture re the natural tone of the guitar, and what would suit it. Perhaps trying to turn it into a jazz archtop, instead of letting it excel at being a 335 type semi acoustic. I think with a good guitar, and good pickups, there will always be a reasonable amount of detail/string separation etc. - yes, for some guitars, it's appropriate to emphasize those aspects, but not always.
In the end, I feel now I've got a guitar that does the "Larry Carlton" pretty well, which I'm more than happy with - it has some vintage character, nice power and cut from the bridge for those smooth over-driven leads, the neck pickup is sweet for chordal and jazzy stuff, and the middle position actually has quite a chime-like quality and I can use that instead of a coil tap on the neck pickup. A good, simple setup.
With that description, I bet they are amazing. I love Alnico IVs, and a II in the neck would be sweet. I'll come over for coffee sometime and give it a spin
Just to add, the first pickup set I got from Ben Fletcher, for the ridiculous price of £50 for both, was an alnico 2 7K neck and alnico 4 10.5K bridge (the bobbins have about as much wire on as is possible), both installed in one of my Shine 510 guitars, and those are fabulous. I do have the bridge p'up a tad closer to the strings, but like that it has plenty of oomph, and sounds terrific - fat and strident, and lovely for lead work.
You will be very welcome Nick!

Paella De Mariscos
0 recipe photos
READY IN:50mins
Ingredients Nutrition
- 5 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1⁄2 cup onion, finely chopped
- 1⁄4 cup garlic, chopped
- 1 cup tomatoes, grated (or tomato pulp)
- 1⁄4 lb cod fish fillet, cubed (or other firm white-fleshed fish)
- 4 squid, bodies cleaned and cut into rings
- 1⁄4 cup dry white wine
- 2 3⁄4 cups fish, more as needed (or vegetable broth)
- 1 pinch saffron
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 tablespoon sea salt
- 1 1⁄2 cups rice (Bomba, Valenciano or Vialone Nano)
- 8 mussels, cleaned
- 8 shrimp, peeled
- Make the sofrito. Heat a 12-inch paella pan over medium-high heat. Add 3 Tbsps. oil, then the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in the grated tomatoes and cook, stirring frequently, until the tomatoes have lost most of their moisture and the sofrito is reduced to about one-fourth cup, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and place the sofrito in a small bowl. Wipe the pan.
- Return the pan to medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add the remaining oil, then the cod and squid. Sear the fish, stirring frequently, about 1 minute. Reduce the heat to medium and add the sofrito back to the pan. Cook, stirring the sofrito with the fish to blend the flavors, for 3 minutes. Add the wine, stirring to remove any bits of flavoring from the bottom of the pan. Cook until the wine is reduced by half, about 1 minute.
- Stir in the fish broth, then add the saffron and bay leaf. Season with the salt; the broth will be a bit salty at first, but will even out as the rice cooks.
- Spread the rice evenly in the pan. The rice should be completely submerged; if not, add more broth to the pan. Do not stir the rice. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Arrange the mussels and shrimp over the rice and continue to cook, being careful not to break the film that forms on the surface of the rice or the rice will not cook evenly. Rotate the pan as needed so the paella cooks evenly. Cook until the liquid is mostly absorbed by the rice, the shrimp are firm and opaque and the mussels have opened, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Cover the pan loosely with paper towels and rest for at least 5 minutes before serving at warm room temperature. The paella can remain at room temperature for up to 2 hours, covered, before serving.

They say that the right pair of shoes can change the feel of an outfit...but what could you do with a gold pump?Good evening lovely people.I know it's been a while since we met here but I am sure we have bumped into each other somewhere on the internets.Sharing what I have been up to would take up the whole of this post and two others, but I sure hope you're doing well.The weather though?It's below zero in Eldoret...smh
Nevertheless,I'd love to share with you guys different ways in which you can wear and style your gold pumps and today's look is one of those.
As it is, gold will almost work out with all solid colors and it gets even more interesting when the color is bright.That explains why I settled on this orange, long-sleeved pull-neck top.The original idea was to do two solid colors but then I decided to throw in some prints and cream to give a whole different touch to the outfit.I must admit that I love the outcome and I'm curious about what you guys think!
Keep it here for more looks from this series. Don't forget to share and subscribe.
Till next time, adios.Follow me on Instagram @beinglynn for more of this look

Places That Maneuvered Between Left, Right Driving
Myanmar's decision come Jan. 1 to limit the number of right-hand drive cars coming into a country where they also drive on the right is the latest in a long series of right-hand, left-hand realignments around the world. Here's a look at some of the odder examples.
Samoa switched to driving on the left in 2009 so its citizens could buy cheaper right-hand drive cars from Australia and Japan. Plenty of people opposed it, with some forming a political party, The People's Party, to try to block the change. The switch went ahead though, with a radio announcement halting traffic at 5.50 a.m. on Sept. 7, with a subsequent announcement 10 minutes later ordering cars to start driving on the other side of the road. The change was a made on a public holiday to minimize traffic. Alcohol sales were banned for three days.
Following World War II, the Japanese islands of Okinawa were ruled by the United States, which made traffic drive on the right, unlike the rest of the country, where cars drive on the left. Okinawa didn't switch back to driving on the left until 1978.
Many countries in the Americas switched to driving on the right in the 1930s during the planning of the Pan-American Highway from Alaska to Cape Horn. Only two hold-outs on the mainland Americas remain: Guyana and Suriname.
Traffic flows on the right in Bolivia–except, that is, for the dangerously narrow Yungas road. Also known as the Death Road, it ascends up to 4,650 meters and connects La Paz with the mountainous Yungas region in the north of the country. Vehicles are ordered to drive on the left in order to provide the driver a better view of the wheels–and the steep drop into the valleys below.
Most cars produced in the U.S. until 1910 were right-hand drive, copying the tendency of wagon drivers to both drive and sit on the right. It wasn't until Henry Ford standardized the left-hand drive format in the Model T that it became the norm.

Texas courts will consider the best interests of the children in all family law cases, including those where the grandparent or grandparents of the children are seeking to spend more time with the youths. If a petition to change custody, modify visitation, restructure support or any other matter is brought before the court and involves kids, the court will seek to protect the interests of the minors. As the facts of every case can be different, readers are asked to speak with their own family law attorneys about their legal questions and should rely on the general information contained in this post as legal advice.
Texas grandparents do have rights to seek visitation time with their grandkids. In some family situations, such as the death or incarceration of a parent, the individual's child may become estranged from his grandparents on the deceased or incarcerated parent's side of the family. In such cases a grandparent may petition the court to have scheduled time with his grandchild in order to preserve their relationship.
Certain events may terminate a grandparent's right to visitation. If, for example, the grandparents' child is dead, the grandchildren's other parent has remarried, the new spouse has adopted the kids and the new adoptive parent denies the grandparents' request for visitation, the petition may be denied. Specific situations regarding adoption and other legal matters can be brought up with readers' family law lawyers.
Grandparents and grandchildren often have special bonds. In some cases a grandparent may be able to protect his visitation time with his grandkids even if his child is no longer in the grandchildren's lives. However, the best interests of the children will guide courts' determinations on whether the grandparents' rights should be enforced.

Ahhh looking through these pictures is really making me miss the sun. There's nothing I love more than strolling around in my bikini .. Which is definitely not going to be happening this weekend at Reading Fest, with the weather like this..
Now I can honestly say that I have never owned a more perfect swimsuit before. When searching for beachwear I tend to go for the usual bikini two piece , however Forever Unique have got the perfect swimsuit down to a T. When this came through my door i was literally buzzing to wear it, as soon as I put it on I found that it fitted perfectly. It is a tight fit which is good for on holiday, it tucks you in and makes sure nothing falls out, as we've all gone through THAT embarrassment before. I also feel as though the jewels give the illusion of a slimmer waist, and also make the swimsuit that bit more glamorous!
Hope you love the swimsuit as much as I do. You can shop it here.
you can also add me on snapchat 'emilytuttlefash' to find out what I get up to at Reading Fest and the onto London next week
Lots of love, Emily XO

Bunheads -- Crossing Boundaries
Fanny decides to extend her vacation for another week, meaning Michelle is stuck at home teaching all of Fanny's classes and being run ragged. To make matters worse there's a leak in the dressing room and Michelle doesn't know what to do, so she calls Truly, who suggests she try hiring a plumber.
Because the dressing room is unusable, Michelle tells the Bunheads they can use her house to change in, but totally violate Michelle's trust by going through all her things. Sasha shows up. The Bunheads were worried about Sasha's parents might have done to her for sneaking out and ruining her mother's car. Instead of punishing her, they rewarded her. They took her to a spa and gave her a credit card.
Truly stops by to see how the plumbing problem is going and is appalled to discover that Michelle has hired One-Eyed Davis as the plumber. No one hires Davis. The joke in town is someone always needs to keep an eye on him. And it seems they're right, as One-Eye knocks a bunch of holes in the wall trying to find the pipes. Truly offers to keep an eye on Davis.
Davis looks a lot like Days Of Our Lives Patch. In fact, I wondered if maybe that could have been Stephen Nichols playing the part. I don't think it was him, though. Michelle returns later and finds Davis and Truly giving each other a tongue bath. Truly is horrified by what she did. She says she feels like she betrayed Hubbell, even though Hubbell dumped her and married another woman. It's funny about Hubbell. The people that loved him and were devoted to him he treated like crap and the person that didn't even want to go out on a date, he treated like she was solid gold.
Michelle crosses another boundary line with the Bunheads when she takes them out to dinner and tells them about her wild life. This inspires Ginny to dump Josh, who she's been dating for 8 years to play the field like Michelle did as a teen. This causes Ginny's mother, Claire, to ream Michelle out. From a few slips Claire made, it sounds like she was more upset for herself than Ginny, as it appears Josh did a lot for Claire around the house.
Michelle also butts heads with Sasha who stole one of Michelle's T-Shirts from her house and then lies about it when Michelle confronts her. They have another heated confrontation when Sasha shows up at the ballet studio with her hair not properly attired. Michelle ends up reaming her out. I know Michelle likes being the Bunhead's buddies, but there has to be some boundaries or they'll think like Sasha did that they can get away with murder and you're going to let them. Realistically, Michelle should have taken them all to task for ransacking her house when she only gave them permission to use her house to change her clothes.
Afterwards, Michelle feels she can't do this. She doesn't want to be an adult. Boo's mother comforts her and tells her that since she arrived Boo has changed for the better.
Meanwhile, Boo who must have the self-respect of a flea, agrees to put a good word in with Ginny for Charlie. Boo still has a thing for Melanie's brother even after he wrote another girl's number down on her arm and asked her to call him and give him the number. Things get even worse when Ginny decides she might give Charlie a go, even though she knows how Boo feels about him.
When Michelle says goodbye to Boo, Boo gives her a dirty look, blaming Michelle for Ginny deciding to play the field, instead of blaming who she should really be blaming: Charlie. Hopefully, if Boo's dream comes true and she ever gets her chance with Charlie, she'll realize she doesn't want him and he's just not worth it.

On Sept. 5, it was announced by Attorney General Jeff Sessions that the Obama-era program, Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, would be ending, with President Donald Trump giving Congress a six-month window to come up with a replacement.
DACA is an immigration protection policy for undocumented citizens who were brought to the United States as children by their parents.
DACA has prevented certain undocumented individuals with minor protection from being immediately deported. There are over 800,000 people in the program, and those that are under the program can not receive any sort of financial aid, whether it be for school, welfare benefits or any other programs.
"Of course my first reaction was fear and anger" said 20-year-old Antonela Saenz.
Saenz and her sister have been a part of the program since 2013 and are currently both attending Capital Community College in Hartford.
"We came here when we were six, so this country is basically all we know. We're just as much of citizens as everyone else in this country," Saenz said.
Saenz is currently majoring in early childhood education and hopes to transfer to a four-year university to be a preschool teacher once she graduates. But with Trump's decision to end the program, Saenz is unsure of what her future holds.
"The worst thing was when my mom called me crying, apologizing for everything when nothing is her fault. It sucks because all she wanted was for me to have a better life and now we have to continue to live in fear of what's next," Saenz said.
It is not only those who are directly affected by the decision with strong reactions. People who know someone affected, or are just touched by what is going on, are upset about the decision as well.
History professor Katherine Hermes said her initial reaction was "horror" but after some time, she "saw there was room for Congress to do something."
"It was a grave mistake for the Trump administration to end it, as the DACA program helped 800,000 motivated people to be part of this society and to improve their lives," said CCSU student and Student Government Association Senator Victor Constanza.
No new applicants were to be accepted after Sept. 5, and anyone whose DACA expires later than March 5, 2018, must renew by Oct. 5. Trump has given Congress six months to agree on a legislative order to make sure DACA stays in order or come up with something similar. Otherwise, Trump stated he will make an executive decision.
Many CCSU students stand in solidarity with undocumented citizens under the program.
There are over 10,000 citizens under DACA in the state of Connecticut.
"I hope this DACA act lights a fire under Connecticut legislature to pass something to help undocumented students with financial aid," Hermes said.
An event is going to be held on campus by the Carrying Humanity As New Generations Emerge, or CHANGE, Club, called Change for Immigrants, on Sept. 14 at the Student Center Circle.
Speakers include CCSU students Jose Diaz, Jason Ramos, Erick Ramos and Constanza.
"Thankfully a lot of people are united in helping DACA recipients and supporting positive immigration reform," Constanza said.

Bold. Confident. Assertive
Our aim was to create a solid, flowing shape, instead of a front and two sides. This is why the lines and graphics sweep around the whole cab.
The truck's stance, its visual attitude, was a key consideration, too. The form expresses the truck's efficiency and dynamics. It appears to lean forward, wheels pressing at the ground. It's bold. Assertive. It's ready to work.
Slimmer side mirrors
The side mirrors add to the cab's distinctive profile. Mounted further away from the upright A-pillar on a slender arm, the new design increases the driver's field of vision and improves the truck's aerodynamics.
Precision fit. Perfect finish
The new cab is bigger, but its aero-led design means it's less wind resistant. The precision fit of the panel joints means there's no gap between the lower and upper cab. Air flows around the cab instead of through it – enhancing aerodynamic performance and reducing fuel consumption.

The Term Limit limited
To the editor;
What is good policy for the Obama administration is apparently not "good enough" policy for the esteemed political pols of MoCo.
"We are a country with term limits," says Secretary of State Kerry.
"We have overwhelming support for term limits," says Tom Periello of the State Department, speaking at Brookings. They facilitate "transitions, economic growth, and stability."
In "Obama Administration Comes out for Term Limits," Nicolas Tomboulides notes the numerous instances that the Obama administration has supported term limits, both in the US and abroad.
So why do the stalwart Democrats in MoCo want to go against their own administration's policies?

Science versus Religion
To the editor;
As a member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, I find no disparity between my religious beliefs and the art of science.
In a lecture delivered in Paris at the UNESCO house in 1984, Nobel Laureate Professor Abdus Salam emphasized that the Qur'an exhorts Muslims "to study nature, to reflect, to make the best use of reason in their search for the ultimate and to make the acquiring of knowledge and scientific comprehension part of the community's life."
The Prophet Muhammad emphasized the importance of knowledge by stating that it is the duty of every Muslim, man and woman, to become educated. He further enjoined his followers to seek knowledge, even if they had to travel to China (a difficult journey 1400 years ago).
This quest for knowledge is what sparked the Golden Age of Islam, a time of innovation and discovery within the Muslim world. Sadly, that passion for discovery fell ill to corrupt religious zealots and power-hungry despots.
In an effort to reignite that passion and prevent the radicalization of youth, His Holiness Mirza Masroor Ahmad, has urged young Muslim boys and girls to seek higher education and pursue avenues of research that are beneficial to all.
To this end, the Association of Ahmadi Muslim Scientists, USA will be holding its 4th Annual Holy Qur'an and Science Symposium at Bait-ur-Rehman Mosque in Silver Spring, MD on August 27th (muslimscientists.org). We invite people of all ages and backgrounds to join us on this unique day-long event, which will feature posters and presentations from scientists researching in various areas along with fun hands-on science experiments for all ages.

Ficker's razzle dazzle
To the editor;
Robbin Ficker, Esq. delivered 18,000 voter petitions in favor of defending the people of Montgomery County: "I'm here as a defense attorney and I am defending the people of Montgomery County against a self-serving County Council." (Robin Ficker takes petitions to County, 8/11/16) Obviously Mr. Ficker did not vote for the elected councilmembers.
What, where and when is Ficker's evidence councilmembers were elected to be self-serving?
As a public defender, the Ficker referendum will limit unworthy politician's service by voters who believe Robin Ficker is more trustworthy.
To be continued.
J. Martinelli
Pollyanna in Moco
To the editor;
"When you loook for the bad in mankind expecting to find it, you surely will," from Pollyanna. I'm back in Rockville.
J.S., we might make good company. Let's date Yes, I want to hit the Billboard Hot 100 with J. Spragues' guide book lessons to cope with change - a hometown word. J.S. I am yours; completely regardless that bananas do not grow in Montgomery County.
Yours, Pollyanna.
P.S. At last, an imperative mood becomes relevant to be quahed - put an end to it by an absurd letter to the editor.
editor's note: This is my favorite reply to an editor's note addressing an "absurd" letter to the editor using an "imperative mood."
