Dear Melody, We should have written this letter to you years ago. Now where do we begin and how much time do you have? for I/we have so much to say to you. Melody, even though we have known you for years now, to this day you never cease to amaze us with your creative photographic workmanship, and now you have this wonderful website too, Memories by Melody at: http://www.memoriesbymelody.com that we can use every day if we wish, and we do so, very often now. Melody, you have been such a blessing to our family through your imaginative photography and we want everyone to know it. Because of your artistic photography of our family, from our family portraits, to our childrens graduations, their engagements, weddings, our grandchildrens births in some cases, to our family reunions, and other special events, we now possess earthen treasures in heavenly vessels through your God sent photography that shall preserve our family members images and memories for lifetimes to come, from generation to generation, as we pass it on to our childrens children. Our entire family thanks you Melody for always being so precious, going out of your way for us, even though you live in Charlottesville, Virginia or Earlysville, VA, you have made yourself available just for us on so many occasions. Over the years you have flown to Alaska, Illinois, Texas, Arkansas, and even driven to Tennessee, Ohio, and come to many other locations at our requests, just to take pictures at our family events. What can we say, your photography is so imaginative, no other photographer weve used can compare, and we could never pay you enough money for the work you have done for us, no price and compare to the love you've expressed in your work done for us. After reviewing your new website again and again, specifically the section you created just for us of all the pictures of our family you've taken over the years, so that we can view them all in private through our own private pass code, and now we feel we have underpaid you over the years. Therefore, we have enclosed a love offering above and beyond what you have charged us for your sincere services rendered, and we do this just to show our true appreciation for you. Honestly Melody, you have been one of our best investments ever. Memories by Melody your inspired photos taken of us and our family in so many well-ordered ways are worth more than all the gold and silver on earth to our family memories. Youve brought so much joy to each of us, and you do so every time we go back and review your stunning photography, it continually takes our breath away. We are so thankful we flew you, all expenses paid, to every family event possible over the years so that we could end up with your Memories by Melody Treasures of our entire family. Truer words have never been spoken about the memories you have left us in photographs, photo albums, CDs, emails, and now your new website http://www.memoriesbymelody.com Seriously Melody, you should consider charging much more for your resourceful work; maybe even double your prices. Quality is far better to us than quantity when it comes to our memories. Melody, you only need to apologize for your higher prices once, than someone else having to apologize for their bad quality forever. Melody, you really have no idea how good your resourceful photography really is, but we do, and we tell everyone we can about you and your practical work. Thankfully some of those people have hired your professional services and so you know, we have only heard praises about your lovely work. Your photos are the most memorable pictures we have within all of our photo albums. You need to know we have had many other photographers over the years, and although they did take some nice photos they really could not compare to the inspiring work you did for us. You have a gift Melody Robbins that could only come from God. Thank you for sending us your newest website http://www.memoriesbymelody.com we love it. Now we can go and look at all of the thousands of photos you have taken over the years of our entire family, it is simply amazing! All we have to do is go to your website http://www.memoriesbymelody.com and enter the security code youve given our family, so that we can now privately view your vivid photographs of our entire family anytime we want from anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and we do this a lot. How brilliant . Your http://www.memoriesbymelody.com website is so AWESOME, just as you are! Its so nice to view the dozens of other beautiful families you have blessed with your talent. We love all the brides and grooms, where you capture their love for each other forever, their engagements, their weddings, graduations, family reunions, and so much more. We had no idea there were so many attractive people you have taken photos of. We know that timing is everything in photography, and you take the cake with your perfection and love for others, doing everything you can for us, and now others we see on your website, as though you are doing it as unto the Lord. One last thought; Melody, if you ever need a recommendation, just ask us, or better yet, please feel free to use this letter of praise and thanksgiving, for we do consider it was the Lord who sent you to us. Please, give it to anyone you wish to read, especially those who may be interested in a real professionals work that will last lifetimes for their family memories too. Melody, feel free to put this letter weve written to you up on your website and/or on all your posts for others to read. They all need to know who you really are, and about the talent God has given you to capture the precious moments only you of Memories by Melody could do. So bless everyone you wish with our letter, they all need to experience the joy you have brought us through your artwork. We thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for all the love and memories you have captured on film of our entire family for generations to come. Once again, we cannot thank you again for your website: http://www.memoriesbymelody.com containing almost all of the hundreds or perhaps even thousands of photos you've taken of our whole family over the years. If you put this website together you are also a genius in website creation, just as you are in photography. We talked to a friend of ours who does this kind of website creation for a living, he was really impressed. We asked him how much he would charge us at full retail to create a website just like yours, but only for us. We told him, if we wanted all the features you put up for us on your site on our site he would create, he said he would have to charge us up to $5,000.00 or more. And even more money monthly thereafter, if he had to continue to working on our site to improve it, as you keep doing to your own site. So Melody, for us to pay to have this instant treasure chest of pictures put up on the internet, so that our entire family could pull up all our pictures to view together or separately anytime each one of us wants to, from any computer, from almost any place on earth as we travel, it would have cost us an extra $5,000.00 or more. Therefore Melody, we must ask this question, Surely you do not do all this for everyone you do business with, and if so, how on earth can you afford to do it, that is without charging extra for it? We are willing and very happy to pay you for this extra benefit of doing business with you. So please, just let us know what the price is, and well pay it. May God continue to bless the work of your hands, your family, your photography work for us and many other families as well. With all our love, Anthony, Marie Jones, and because of your patience and instructions, our entire photogenic family.

"Diversity is the core of successful communities." — Lee Feldman, 2017 ICMA President
By LWG Editor
Recently, League of Women in Government President, Pamela Antil, ICMA-CM, talked with the 2017 International City/County Management Association (ICMA) President Lee Feldman. Mr. Feldman, ICMA-CM is the City Manager of Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Pam and Lee talked and shared thoughts on how we might increase the number of senior executive positions in local government and how ICMA serves as a forum for this very important discussion. Here is the interview:
Pam: Why do you think there aren't more women in the CAO seats in cities and counties?
Lee: My non-scientific answer is that it has something to do with the makeup of elected bodies across the country. Many elected bodies have not gotten rid of the gender stereotypes. When you look at the bulk of city/county organizations across the country, I think they are mostly people over the age fifty – maybe even over 60 years old. This group seems to be typically holding on to gender stereotypes which work the governing bodies against women. When younger people are elected to fill those seats, I am confident this will change.
Pam: Interestingly enough, recruiters tell us anecdotally that even with more women on elected bodies, it doesn't necessarily work in women's favors when a city or county manager is selected.
Lee: That's true. I think it is more of a generational thing. There are still a majority of people in their late fifty's and beyond that see the top spot as one traditionally held by a male. It is hard for some people to get over that stereotype.
Pam: So, what do you think needs to change for cities/counties to advance women?
Lee: I think it's a timing thing. We need to ride out this generational issue. And we are pretty close to the end of that. In the meantime, we need to make sure that anyone in a CAO position right now gives women opportunities to come up through the ranks, to be equal, and not serve in stereotypical "women's roles" such as serving as City Clerk, human resources director, etc. We have to prepare women for some of the non-traditional female roles such as police chief, utilities director, etc. We have got to make sure that we are giving everyone an equal chance to compete regardless of their gender and/or ethnicity. We need to figure out ways to accelerate this – we don't have time to slowly wait for the current 15.6 percent of women in CAO spots to increase to 50 percent on its own. For the number to grow faster, increasing the number of opportunities in traditional male roles is the key.
Pam: Tell me about a woman that you've worked with who made a positive impact on your career.
Lee: When I was the City Manager in North Miami, we had a Director of Administration who was probably one of the smartest people I've ever come across in my career. Her name was Carol and she was literally a magician when it came to budget, understanding the process and the numbers. She concentrated on what was really important in the budget process. I learned a lot from her and her impact stays with me to this day.
Pam: How can we increase the number of women in the early career pipeline for local government?
Lee: We have to create role models and opportunities. We all have a responsibility to create opportunities. And as I talked about earlier, we need to create opportunities for women in roles that are not typically held by women – police and fire chiefs, public works directors and so forth.
Pam: How is ICMA helping to increase the number of women in senior executive positions?
Lee: ICMA is becoming the forum for the discussion. ICMA is bringing people to the table. We need to address this and be proactive. Not by coming to the table necessarily with solutions, rather, by providing the safe space where we can all work together to come up with solutions.
Pam: How does a more diverse leadership team impact a community?
Lee: Diversity is the core of successful communities. A diverse leadership team makes sure that all ideas will be put on the table and will be heard. It allows for multiple points of view. It really enhances the whole local government experience. If you have an organization run by all people of the same background, then you will have decisions in a vacuum and from one vantage point. This further divides a community rather than building it together.
Pam: What can we do as public administrators in our own organizations to eliminate bias in our organizations?
Lee: We can do what it is that we need to do – address it! You can't hide from it. You can't run from it. You have to actively seek out bias and destroy it.
Pam: You chose to highlight diversity and inclusiveness at the ICMA regional summits, tell me about how chose the topic and why it is important to you.
Lee: Our country is becoming more polarized. It is clear to me that this polarization demonstrates that the country is becoming less inclusive. Less tolerant. I go back to the reason why I got into this profession in the first place – to serve at the local level. Because the local level is really what builds this country. So if we are to battle this polarization and exclusiveness, then we must simply be more inclusive and support diversity in our communities. If we can't do it at the local level, then we really can't expect it to happen at the national level.
Pam: Thank you Lee for your time today. Is there anything else you'd like to add?
Lee: I'm really excited that there are so many people in our profession today that have a passion for this topic. Because it will never change if people don't. I applaud those who are taking the initiative and pushing back against the mainstream to make sure that there's a voice that's heard on this topic. So, I thank you!
Lee R. Feldman, ICMA-CM, City Manager for the City of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, is the 2017 ICMA President. Prior to his work with Fort Lauderdale, Lee served the cities of Palm Bay and North Miami, Florida. Mr. Feldman is a graduate of Washington and Lee University, where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Liberal Arts. He earned a Master's Degree in Governmental Administration from the Fels Center of Government at the University of Pennsylvania. In addition, he is a graduate of the Senior Executive in State and Local Government program at Harvard University's Kennedy School of Government.

Connecting Aha Radio to your Car Stereo
Now that you have all this great Aha Radio content playing on your iPhone you probably want to know the best way to get it playing through your existing car stereo. Depending on how old your car and/or car stereo is there can be a lot of things to consider. Here are the most common options:
- Cassette adapter - these first became popular with portable CD players and got even bigger when the iPod took off. It may seem that these are almost extinct, but odds are that if your car stereo has a tapedeck this is probably going to be the easiest and most affordable option. If, like me, you hate the wire hanging out of your tape slot, move on to option two.
- FM Transmitter - once cars started shifting the default to CD (instead of cassette) the easiest option for most was a device that transmits your portable device audio through an unused FM frequency, and then you simply tune your car stereo to that same frequency. Depending on the available frequencies in your area, and where your car antenna is located, the results can be mixed, but the look is often the cleanest option. Some of them even charge your device in the process.
- Auxiliary Input (basic) - there are two types of AUX options, but I'll start with the one that's been around longer. First available almost exclusively in after-market stereos, these options are now popping up more and more in factory stereos too. Either with an adapter that plugs into the back of your head unit, or in many cases a simple headphone jack somewhere on the front of the stereo (or even on the dash), just plug a 3.5mm dual male stereo cable into your headphone jack and the AUX jack, and you are connected. Audio quality is great, but you won't be able to control the device with your stereo controls.
- Auxiliary Input (USB) - the latest and greatest of the bunch, but not without it's pitfalls. Your stereo has full iPod integration and connects to your iPhone via USB/iPod cable. You'll typically be able to manage the iPod function directly on your stereo and may even get details about what is playing. If you are using an iPhone app that produces audio (like Aha Radio) the iPod function will automatically mute when needed. You may still have your iPod details display on your stereo, but the audio will be all Aha Radio. Depending on the car stereo you may or may not be able to make iPod choices directly on the device.

Blanket Diet Recommendations Need to Stop Now!
OK, so I'm sick of it… my email inbox is constantly bombarded with various publications sprouting all of these "studies" that make claims on how Americans should eat to get slim and stay slim.
Most of them contradict one another and with each passing decade there seems to be a new "belief" fad or "evil foods" that "MUST" be avoided to arrive at the holy grail of thinness…
So, today's fad is "CARBS ARE EVIL" and bacon and eggs are back in fashion.
This morning, I opened up my email inbox and saw an article [hidden among the many articles on the best ways to pleasure your lover in the sack] that was asking the question of whether carbs are really "evil and bad for me?" The author's main thesis was to explain how it is that we have become so carb "addicted".
In the discussion, he outlined an argument that I have seen more than once, and each time I read it, my blood boils…. [I'm Italian, we are passionate people]
He talks about some Colorado State professor's theory about "how modern society, as we know it, all arose out of carbohydrates."
Wait?…What? …. So the theory goes something like this, before 10,000 years ago humans were hunter gatherers, eating primarily a meat based diet, but as the animal world dwindled, humans turned to agriculture and cereal grains were born.
The agricultural revolution then was the "cause of all evil"… and here is my absolute favorite line from the article "he believes that discordance between humanity's genetically determined dietary needs and its present diet is responsible for many of the degenerative diseases that plague us today."
So, here's where I go nuts… 10,000 years ago humans were dead by the time they were 35… how many 35 year olds do you know with severe degenerative diseases? There are some, I acknowledge that, but not the "epidemic" the professor is alluding to.
In addition, on the one hand, he believes in the agricultural revolution, but on the other he completely ignores the "evolution" revolution!
What do I mean by that? Humans have adapted to their environment genetically during these past 10,0000 years… so how can one simply ignore this in their argument. It's ridiculous, unless of course you are an evolution denier.
But even if you are a religious person who believes that man magically appeared on earth because of god's intervention, rather than evolving from apes…. How can one possibly deny that sickle cell anemia is the direct result of a genetic adaptation to the high rate of malaria killing a large segment of the population? Or the adaptation whereby human skin has increased its number of melanocytes (cells that make the colour brown) for humans living in countries that had more UV light? Both of these are beyond the scope of this discussion, rather… the point I am making is that all species either evolve in response to their environment or become extinct.
So, rather than just read about the latest diet craze and decide that you "MUST DO" whatever it is that the craze is telling you "MUST DO"… it makes more sense to have a simple test where a sample of your cells [often from a swab of the inside of your cheek] are used to sequence your DNA. DNA is the blueprint or list of instructions for how your body will develop and function.
Surprising as it may sound, not every human will be healthy and slim if they just "cut out the carbs".
To illustrate my point, I had this testing done, and lo and behold, rather than the standard recommendation that 40%* of the my diet come from "healthy carbs", my gene sequencing has informed me that I should be consuming a diet lower in fat instead of a low carbohydrate, Mediterranean or other diet. The goal for me, based on my DNA is to aim for 50-55%.
Given that I originated in the Mediterranean, my initial response was one of "you've got to be kidding?" OF COURSE the test was going to tell me to follow a Mediterranean diet. But the more I thought about it, I started to realize that it did explain why my hunger center is satiated much sooner if I have carbs in my meal, than when I just eat protein and fat. The end result of that is with the addition of the extra carbs, my portions are smaller and I stay full longer. It also explained why I just didn't really lose weight or gain muscle by following a low carb, high protein diet. Initially, I might lose some weight, but it usually was muscle loss and not fat loss, which defeated the whole point of the diet. My goal was to build lean muscle and lose fat, not the other way around.
So, the next time you read something that makes you feel bad about yourself and how you are eating, think about getting the information that you really need to determine what path you really should be following.
At FreshSkin Medical Spa & Wellness Center we offer the Healthy Weight DNA Insight® test which not only defines what diet you should follow, but also provides your eating behavior traits, information on specific nutritional needs, how your body responds to exercise, how your body type and weight (or tendencies towards obesity) contribute to your metabolic health, and outlines any special risks for specific diseases. The test will even outline if there are any added risks to some commonly prescribed medications.
One final note, I also overhear many people refer to certain foods as "poison"… not only is that inaccurate, it's harmful. The human body needs a balance of foods to provide it with the nutrients that it needs to function fully. Provided you don't have any life-threatening allergies or food sensitivities, I am a huge believer in "everything is fine to eat and drink" in moderation. Eating this way, leaves one feeling like they are not ever deprived and tends to create a much healthier relationship with food, with the added side effect of being consistently leaner.
Happy Eating!
*The "general" recommendation that is made by most nutritionists is to strive for 40% of their diet originating from carbohydrates.

Here's the final version of "Final Countdown" from Audiosmith.
I used 4 cameras for this little live clip for Audiosmith – 2x Canon 600D (t3i) plus a little canon powershot and an original go-pro – pretty much every camera that I had laying about the house. One of the Audiosmith crew operated the rear camera and zoomed in and out on the band. I operated the roaming camera around the stage with a wide angle lens .. and the other two cameras were in fixed positions.
I used a 30 day trial of Plural Eyes from Red Giant Software to sync the audio tracks (what a massive time saver that was and definitely going on the shopping list) then I had a crack at using the Multicam edit options with Premiere CS6 – then rendered the entire thing from premiere and pulled it into After Effects to add the effects. Quite a lot of fun and very much a learning experience 🙂

Are you collecting all Rinkya Japanese flashcards? Great! Today we are going to whisper in order to learn about "hiso hiso." This onomatopoeia is a silent one. Well, almost a silent one. We use it to describe the sound of whispering, but it can also be used as a verb, as "hiso hiso suru." It is a very useful onomatopoeia/verb! So, keep it into your mind! You can find this onomatopoeia in daily conversations (a lot, actually), literature and also manga.
How many Rinkya Japanese flahscards have you collected so far? Which are your favorite ones?

6 security companies to watch
This group of security companies includes several that want to capitalize on technology ideas that were originally devised to serve communities of special interest but could now take on a wider cybersecurity role. Fixmo, for example, has its roots in the National Security Agency where its mobile security makes it possible to run critical applications in sandboxes that are insulated from the rest of the machine, making them less likely to fall victim to malware that might have infected the device.
Or Emerging Threats Pro, which started off as an open source intrusion detection project that needed better-quality assurance to make the leap to widespread use in businesses and as an element of other security products.
And as is often the case with young companies, they form around individuals whose creative spark and energy bring new products to life. Sticking with Emerging Threats Pro, its founder, Matt Jonkman, is also president of the Open Information Security Foundation (OISF), which is working on the Suricata intrusion detection engine on which the commercial venture is based.
Also in this crop of companies to watch, Kenneth Weiss, the daddy of two-factor SecurID authentication, is hoping to make another winner with Universal Secure Registry's three-plus factor authentication. And Matthew and Prince Lee Holloway, both alumni of open source anti-spam Project Honeypot, are continuing their efforts to block junk Internet traffic with their content delivery network, CloudFlare.
Cisco Fellow Patrick Peterson is behind Agari, an email security company based on work Peterson started at IronPort before Cisco bought it. Still a Cisco fellow, he spends most of his time on the new venture.
Here are brief descriptions of a half-dozen security companies to watch, what they can do for enterprises and why they are worth keeping an eye on.
Headquarters: Palo Alto, Calif. Founded: 2009, as Authentication Networks Funding: $2.5 million Series A funding from Alloy Ventures with participation from Battery Ventures, First Round Capital and Greylock Partners Leader: Cisco Fellow Patrick Peterson Fun fact: The idea for Agari came out of research being done by IronPort when Cisco bought the company. Also, Agari means "to win" in Japanese.
Why we're following it: This email security service will block fake emails, a valuable means for cutting down on successful phishing attacks, but the company gets a leg up because it has support for its portal from AOL, Google, Microsoft and Yahoo, which will be put in place for their customers. Millions of customers will be using it without knowing it.
Key to the service is its accuracy in nailing malicious email without blocking legitimate messages, which company founder Patrick Peterson estimates at one false positive per million blocked messages.

Second Asks
Posted on 02/18/2017
- by Dan Allenby
One of the oldest taglines in annual giving goes like this: Make a gift now and we won't ask again for another year. But there are a growing number of programs today that can't make that claim. Why? Because they're implementing "second asks" – going back to donors who have already made a gift and asking them for additional support. Some programs are reluctant to take this approach for fear of offending donors or hurting future retention rates. Rutgers University isn't one of them.
Rutgers typically runs two second ask campaigns per year – one in January and one in May. In January, they reach out to donors whose previous gift was made between June and November. Then, in May, they target donors whose previous gift was made between December and March. Sometimes the second asks are for a general fund (e.g., scholarships) but the best response rates often come when donors are asked to support a specific area that's important or personal to them. For Rutgers, it's not unusual to see as many as 3,500 second gifts in a year, which can add up to more than $350,000.
Second asks can be a great way to upgrade donors and strengthen the pipeline. For example, if someone has been consistently contributing $750, a second ask for $250 can serve as a way to increase their total giving to $1,000 and welcome them as a member of a leadership gift society. For programs that encourage unrestricted support the first time around, a second ask can be a way for them to support a special interest, such as a department or an athletic team.
The big question for many annual giving professionals is what happens after someone makes a second gift? Does their likelihood of giving in the following year decrease? Surprisingly, no. In fact, the more gifts a donor contributes in a single year, the more likely they are to renew their support the following year. At Rutgers, a donor is 13% more likely to renew if they make a second gift, and 23% more likely to renew if they make 3 or more gifts in a year.
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again. And even when you do succeed, it may be worth trying again.

Party game is a mixed combination of party and games. Where party means a get together by family and friends for any specific reason like birthday, marriage, marriage anniversary, Halloween events etc. And here the game means playing fun and entertainment games for more excitement and enjoyment. In other words you can also say that it refers to the game that we play in any party. As it is not a professional game, its main purpose is double the fun and entertainment in the party.
party games are always played between family members and friends only and always located in any party. Party games are completely a social process and there are no monetary and financial terms here, though the winner will be rewarded may or may not by gifts, depends on party.
All party games are flexible in nature, and anyone can be a participant of these games. Party games should be played between kids and adults both depending on the game. These are completely non-monetary concept and having many social benefits in playing games in a party. As it's a get together game, it helps in improving relation among the participants. We should divide these party games as: -
Children or kids party games includes all those games in which kids participates. There are lots and lots of kid's games in parties, we will tell you just a few one like catch the Balloon, Red Light Green Light, Poor Kitty, Twenty questions, etc. Children are considering as the best participants of party games, as kids enjoy each and every moment of party games.
Adult party games are played between adult participants, though the purpose of playing these games are also for fun and enjoyment and not include any monetary beneficial or professionalism. Adult party games are completely fast mind games. Adult party games basically includes murder mystery games, general quiz, housie, and even board games. Adult party games are of the best game that improves the relations among the participants and a good social issue too.
Nowadays, video games are the new concept in party games. As the name says playing video games in parties. Kids are great fans of video games; hence the party organizer also organizes video games in parties just for adding some more fun and entertainment. This is completely a new concept and discovered just a year back.
If we are discussing the party games, then it is also necessary to discuss why we play these games. For kids, the purpose of playing these games is for fun, entertainment, etc. And for adults the purpose for playing these games is especially socially get together, removing work stress, keep them cool, and also a great source of recreation too.
In India, party games are very much popular. Each and every party there should be a game. In kid's birthday or any other ceremony there are lots of games organized by the organizer like most commonly musical chair, four corners, Who Am I, Hats and Shoes, Housie, Passing the parcel, pop the balloon, etc. Kids as well as the adults play these games for fun and recreation. These party games makes all families and friends together for fun and making good social relation among each other. Even our culture says we are good in social activities and relation these games plays vital role in making good relation between new family members too.
In the end, I want to say that these party games are great source of recreation and there are lots of social benefits of this in our personal life. I had enjoyed a lot in my childhood days, especially in my or my friends birthday parties, as we all celebrate it with Antakshri (Song Game) and Musical chair. Hope you still remember the days of party games in you childhood. Best experience of a kid in his enjoyment. So, hence these are all my views on Party Games.

This was an emotional birth for this family, but also for me, as the birth photographer. Heidi had 3 boys and this baby was planned to be the last. She had wanted a vaginal birth more than anything with her first 3 births but was unable to have one due to different reasons. After a lot of research and prayer, the nurse within Heidi decided against her very much wanted VBA3C (vaginal birth after 3 cesareans) just a month before baby #4 came.
Much to Heidi's surprise, she went into labor on her own for the first time ever 4 days before her scheduled c-section. Heidi was convinced this baby was a boy because of her similar pregnancy as her previous ones. Heidi and Buzzy, her husband, were completely surprised to finally have a baby girl after 3 boys!
The shock waved through the two of them with each "her" or "she" said. The pronoun alone kept the tears rolling. Heidi's mom shared in their excitement as she was just as moved as they were about her first granddaughter! Especially because Matilda was named after Heidi's grandmother, Ruth Matilda. Matilda, "Tilly," was a perfect 9lbs 10oz.
Moments after Heidi's mom left the room in postpartum, Heidi noticed some blood on her gown. She thought nothing of it as postpartum can be messy. I stepped out casually to grab some lunch but hurried so I could get back with enough time to capture Buzzy's parents meeting "Tilly" as well. After grabbing a lunch to-go from the cafeteria, I was about to walk back into Heidi's room. I was met with the foot of Heidi's bed at the door as the nurses were wheeling her back out towards the OR.
Heidi appeared to be passed out (she later told me her eyes were just closed). I watched in utter shock and confusion as I followed inside the staff-only elevator back down to the floor with the OR - camera in one hand and salad in the other. Buzzy and I sat outside the OR waiting for an update.
The doctor said they would need to go back in and stop the bleeding. She said the procedure would take about an hour. I left and prepared to come back after she was in recovery.
Buzzy told me he waited 2 and a half hours. The doctors couldn't stop the bleeding despite every attempt and ended up taking the uterus. Buzzy couldn't do anything but pray and wait outside the OR. There is no greater feeling of helplessness than to completely trust that God and Heidi's care-provider, Dr. Devine, had everything under control.
Despite such a dramatic turn of events, Heidi was so grateful for a healthy beautiful daughter and 3 handsome sons and to be alive to enjoy them all. This birth story will be enstilled in all of our hearts for a long time.

This is an attraction concept I've been working on, on and off for many, many years but have recently gotten more serious about. Essentially it's a ride through the animated sequence of Mary Poppins. Seems like the perfect project to work on to build my skills because I know its NEVER going to be built lol. And also I'm a pretty big fan of Tony Baxter and I swear by coincidence that happened to be one of the first ideas he ever worked on. As I continue to work on it, I'll periodically update this page. *Note*: a lot of the work on this page is in the form of doodles that I've done while working at my day job, so sorry about that lol. I also apologize that everything at this point is just pics I've taken for social media – one day I'll actually have to to scan in all the artwork.
I've written a script/treatment for the entire attraction. You can read that here.
The Location/Overview
When I started designing the ride I didn't really have any particular location in mind, though as I've continued working on it I've felt that the best spot would probably be the United Kingdom pavilion at Epcot. It would fit perfectly in the space behind the pavilion and on the site of the Millennium Village building.
The Queue
The queue starts outdoors in the U.K. pavilion at Epcot. At the back of the current pavilion more London buildings can be found and an alley forms between them. Walking through them and past Uncle Albert's apartment we pass under a bridge of buildings and onto Cherry Tree Lane. The idea is that this is a full recreation of the Cherry Tree Lane set as seen in the original movie. I've always loved that set and pictures of it – always wanted to walk right on it and this satisfies that urge.
You'll walk onto the full set and be in the world. Live entertainment will be present in the form of a one man band in the park. As you walk by the Bank's house you'll hear the voices of the domestics quarreling about this and that. Every quarter hour Admiral Boom will launch his cannon to mark the time and cannonballs and smoke go flying overhead as various bits of humorous destruction happen nearby. You'll finally make your way through the park where you'll board.
The Vehicle
Your method of conveyance on this one-of-a-kind journey is a unique Umbrellamobile. I imagine it's a contraption that Mary Poppins herself dreamed up and let's you ride on the wind. The vehicle is designed to sit in a 2-3-4 configuration.
This is designed to more effectively accommodate parties of different sizes as well as provide better viewing experiences than sitting directly behind another person. The rows are also terraced for the same reason. To accommodate the unique shape of the vehicle, the vehicles are turned slightly inward as they pull through the station. (Not a problem as the vehicles while suspended still have full ability to rotate and tilt in several degrees of motion which comes in handy later on in the ride).
Attached to the front of the ride vehicle the parrot of Mary Poppins' umbrella sits proudly. This figurehead is actually animatronic and acts as your host, narrator, and commentator throughout your journey.
The vehicle also has a canopy that is more than what it appears. Asides from aesthetics, it functions as a method to block the view of the track ahead. It also functions as a rear-projection surface for the fox later in the ride, and as a surface for a penguin animatronic (hidden in the upper structure portion of the vehicle) to pop through.
The Ride
Soon you're off on your own Jolly Holiday Adventure. Immediately after leaving the station a gust of wind lifts you over the street of Cherry Tree Lane and you're headed towards the banks house. Just then though the wind changes and you're blown backwards into the sky. There, you see the sun set over London and come across a gigantic drawing of the countryside that Bert has drawn for Mary. As you approach it, some puffs of colored smoke and it dematerializes right in front of your eyes and a 3-dimensional version appears that you fly directly through.
From this point on it's a fairly straight-forward scene by scene reliving of the animated sequence. For more details please read the script. The goal is to create a new experience that isn't a pure play-by-play, but still largely familiar.
The climax of the ride will be the fox hunt and horse race sequence where animatronic horses and riders ride along side you, and even cross in front of you, eventually leading you into a set of speed tunnels set up to simulate a race track. Of course you win the race with the help of Mary Poppins who nudges the wind to fly you above the horses in front of you and send you towards the finish line.
The ride ends with everyone singing Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious before a thunderstorm suddenly appears out of nowhere, causes the all the sets around you to wash away and run before returning you to the park. The idea is the ride is a rather gentle one, with just minor rotation and rollicking motions. The thrill comes from the enormous amount of eye-popping visuals and effects. Flowers that literally turn into animated butterflies flying in the actual air around you (not on the walls, in midair), drawings that just disappear, riders seeing their chalk-drawn reflections in an animated pond, apparently free moving animatronics, sets that can look like they wash away. Characters that literally enter the vehicle. Things like that.
Here's a look at any and all images I've made, including a lot of process pics.

The head of the State Duma Committee on Culture, co-chairman of the central headquarters of the Russian Popular Front (ONF) Stanislav Govorukhin proposed to limit the display of American films in Russia and increase the proportion of European, Korean and Iranian cinema. He made this statement after a meeting of the Popular Front in Moscow.
The State Duma deputy Stanislav Govorukhin proposed to restrict the rental of American cinema in Russia. Photo: ya.ru
« I believe that it would be good to limit the Hollywood movie on Russian screens, but not at the expense of Russian cinema – we produce about 60 paintings – and at the expense of the movie, filmed in countries with a rich cinematic culture – Turkey, Korea, Iran, Japan, the European movie. And then we look only Hollywood movies and rarely – Iranian cinema », – quoted the head of the Duma Committee on Culture Stanislav Govorukhin ITAR-TASS.
Stanislav Govorukhin also called for increased funding for culture because of the foreign policy situation.
«I must admit that we treat culture as a residual, and this attitude must be changed. West is afraid of our unity in terms of culture. The people can not be defeated, it will not break the spiritual backbone », – head of the Duma Committee on Culture Stanislav Govorukhin.
In spring 2014, the State Duma adopted a law banning the use mat in works of art, the initiator of the ban was also Stanislav Govorukhin. Since July 1, the law came into force. Explicit language is prohibited, in particular, in the movie. Violators will be fined. Minimum fine – 2 thousand. Rubles. for citizens, the maximum – 50 th. rub. for legal entities.
Films with expletives go hire will not. If the movie will be displayed in violation of the law, the organizers will be fined 50-100 thousand. Rubles., And in the case of re-display – up to 200 thousand. Rubles., Or their rolling operations will be suspended for up to three months.

When Stephen Kukenis heard a woman's screams coming from a public restroom near the Foster Avenue beach this week, he didn't think twice and ran in to make sure the woman was safe.
"She was screaming loudly, desperately. ... You could tell someone was in desperate need of help." said Kukenis. "I just knew she needed help and I had to help her."
Kukenis, 40, delayed opening up the concession stand operated near the beach by the restaurant he works for, Broadway Cellars Restaurant, on Tuesday so he could check on the screams.

NEITHER the pressure of an FA Cup quarter-final against Millwall nor the inhospitable atmosphere of the New Den hold any terrors for Tranmere Rovers strongman Gary Jones this weekend.
The 28-year-old, (right), has travelled those roads before with his home town club and is, in any case, blessed with a phlegmatic temperament that has served him well on the big occasions.
He has experienced his share. Jones is one of three members of the current squad who figured prominently in Tranmere's dual runs to the FA Cup sixth round and the Worthington Cup final four years ago.
It was a season when the team managed by John Aldridge acquired a serial habit for giantkilling, sending Premiership clubs Coventry City and Middlesbrough, West Ham and Sunderland crashing to earth at Prenton Park.
As for the New Den Jones has a long-held fondness for the Lions' home on Cold Blow Lane where, as a raw 18-year-old he scored a spectacular goal on his Tranmere debut more than a decade ago.
Jones recalls the afternoon back in November '93 when manager John King sent him on as a late substitute with Tranmere trailing 3-0.
"I only had a couple of touches before I got in a header that flew into the top corner from about 18 yards," he says. "It was one of the best goals I have ever scored.
"We got beaten 3-1 but I was just delighted to be given a chance in the side we had then with internationals like John Aldridge and Pat Nevin in it.
"Unfortunately none of my family or friends were there to see it. I just made a little phone call home after the game to say 'guess what, I made my debut and scored'.
It was the first of 50 goals Jones has scored for Tranmere in just under 300 senior appearances.
By the year of the twin cup runs Jones was an established first teamer and had carved himself a niche in Tranmere's midfield.
They were heady days. Jones recalls: "The big thing about that year was we kept on being drawn at home. We had a succession of one-off games against Premiership teams at Prenton Park and we kept on winning them.
"We always managed to rise to the occasion and our confidence built from game to game."
It all came to a head in the final days of February 2000 when Tranmere played an FA Cup quarter-final against New-castle and the Worthington Cup final against Leicester City at Wembley on successive weekends.
Jones says: "We had made the Worthington Cup our priority because we got to the final and when it came to the Newcastle game with Wembley just a week away, our heads were all over the place.
"Newcastle did a professional job on us."
Tranmere finally succumbed to Premiership opposition at the fifth time of asking by a 3-2 scoreline. Jones scored a goal with a quarter of an hour to go that gave Tranmere a glimmer of hope but Bobby Robson's team held on.
Jones moved on to Nottingham Forest at the end of that remarkable campaign and missed Tranmere's repeat journey to the FA Cup quarter-finals as well as relegation to Division Two in the following season.
His two years at the City Ground were mixed - regular first team football for a season under David Platt was followed by a term on the fringes under Paul Hart.
When he returned to Prenton Park in August 2002 it was like slipping on an old pullover and this season's FA Cup run has brought back some familiar emotions.
The script is a little different this time however, with no giant-killing to speak of. Tranmere have slugged their way past one Premiership club, Bolton Wanderers, who declined to field their full strength side in the two third round games. They've seen off two fellow second division clubs, Chesterfield and Luton, one from the third in Swansea City and, somewhat fortunately non league Hornchurch.
Jones says: "I don't know what it is about this club and the Cup. We did not think about making a run again to start with this season. We just played off the first couple of rounds."
Jones suspects another tight game is on the cards on Sunday. He says: "I know some supporters were hoping we'd be drawn to play Man United or Arsenal but we look at it as a tie we have a chance of winning.
"Millwall are a good first division side and they are at home so the pressure is on them to win.
"We can go there as underdogs and have a real go."

First a story:
A young woman describes a feeling one afternoon of something going on in her throat. Then, her voice just seems to disappear over the next few hours, but she does not have any other symptoms. By evening, when she tries to speak, her vocal volume is not much more than a whisper. Thinking this is just the beginning of laryngitis, and because work is busy, she waits for a week. When she does not seem to be getting better she calls her primary care physician and makes an appointment.
At the physician's office, the nurse takes her blood pressure. The physician listens to her heart and lungs. He palpates her neck for swollen glands, looks into her ears, and of course, into her mouth. The physician asks her to open her mouth, say "ah" and looked in with a small light. He suggested that her voice would get better with time and she should just wait and see what happens.
Is his advice appropriate? Can he see the vocal cords by aiming a light into the mouth?
Maybe and No.
How do we know the second answer is no? The vocal cords are located around a bend in the throat. At a minimum, it takes an angled mirror, placed in the back of the mouth to see the vocal cords. Even then, the view can be quite fleeting because of gagging, needing to focus a light on the mirror, breath fogging up the mirror, the tongue and epiglottis getting in the way, and the vocal cords are always moving.
Barely adequate exam
Traditionally, an ENT would place a mirror over their eye (or wear a head-light), then place an angled mirror in the back of the throat and obtain a somewhat variable and fleeting view of the larynx. If the patient had no gag reflex, the view might even be somewhat prolonged. While large tumors, large nodules, a non-moving vocal cord, or other masses might be identified with this mirror, many things will be missed with a mirror.
The next level of exam is using a flexible fiberoptic endoscope passed through the nose and viewed with the naked eye. Although this exam can be performed for a longer period of time than a mirror exam - as it is less likely to cause gagging - the view is typically fuzzy because of the fiber-optic bundles and many things happen very rapidly on the vocal cords, faster than the eye can recognize.
Some of the problems with the above types of exams:
- The naked eye is a poor recording device.
- The images cannot be reviewed by the examiner a second time or by the patient or by a referring doctor.
- Changes in the vocal cords over time cannot be tracked.
- Many movements of the vocal cords happen too fast to see with the naked eye.
- Holding the mouth open with a mirror in the back of the throat alters the functioning of the larynx.
- There are no images to teach the patient about their problem.
- Looking in the mouth tells the examiner nothing about the vocal cords. The vocal cords are around a bend in the throat.
- A mirror in the throat provides a marginal exam.
- A flexible endoscope viewed with the eye, rather than with a camera and recording device, is also a barely adequate exam (at least if better options are available nearby).
Because of these issues, I consider these three types of exams inadequate or barely adequate, especially when the equipment to provide a minimal, but more detailed exam is so widely available, at least in the United States.
The patient in our story actually turned out to have a paralyzed vocal cord. Although her vocal cord partially recovered over time on its own - making the first doctor's advice seem to be correct when he said "just wait" - a more accurate exam would have gotten the patient quicker and perhaps more appropriate treatment.

Living by Ear with Booktrope Author Mary Rowen
I hope you enjoy the new website. Check out the events tab for the latest. Check out the music tab, just cause. Today, I am thoroughly psyched to share with you details about the re-release of Living by Ear, by fellow Booktrope author Mary Rowen. Like me, Mary writes about emotionally wounded characters. Her writing is rich, compelling yet comfortable. I love the way Mary weaves music — sweet, obsessive music — throughout her stories.
Living by Ear is the story of a forty-six year old Boston musician named Christine Daley, who took a "short" break from music sixteen years ago, in order to marry and raise a family. Now, however, she's rethinking everything. Chris adores her two teenage children, but her marriage has become a sham, and she longs to perform again.
So after filing for divorce, she does her best to reestablish her own rhythms—both in music and love—but quickly discovers she's up against much more than she'd anticipated. Her kids seem to need her more than ever, and her soon-to-be-ex-husband is throwing every obstacle he can find into her way. Adding to the dilemma is the astounding progress in technology, which has made huge changes in both the music industry and the dating world. Is there room in the mix for Chris?
Mary Rowen is a Boston area mom with a wonderful family that allows her time to write almost every day. She grew up in the Massachusetts Merrimack Valley and is a graduate of Providence College. She has worked as a teacher, writer, salesperson, and political canvasser. Her two music-inspired novels, Leaving the Beach and Living by Ear, are both available on Amazon, BarnesAndNoble.com, and other places where books are sold.

Early Grade Reading Workshop for Primary Teachers 25th to 29th May 2016
The Department of Education organized Early Grade Reading Workshop for Primary Teachers at TCV Suja from 25th-29th May 2016. 19 participants under the school administration of Tibetan Children Village (TCV) Dharamsala participated in this workshop.
Out of which, 11 teachers are from TCV Suja School, and 8 teachers are from TCV Chauntra School. So far, Early Grade Reading (EGR) workshops conducted by the Department of Education, CTA are considered to be the most successful and prominent workshops to establish a reading culture in the Tibetan society.
The Department of Education initiated the Early Grade Reading Project since 2014 based on the recommendations Education Advisory Committee meeting held in June 2013. Our aim is to train all the primary teachers of Tibetan schools in India which come under the different school administrations such CTSA, STSS, THF, TCV and SLF with a hope to modernize their pedagogy of language and inculcate reading as an important aspect of learning which will enhance the development of early child's literacy.
We expect that our teachers will recognize reading as an independent aspect of learning in primary school and hope our teachers are committed to developing reading habits among every Tibetan child.
Till date, DoE conducted EGR workshops for 18 batches of teachers consist of 299 primary teachers. Based on the positive responses from the participants of the workshop, it was decided to conduct the workshop at least twice a year.
Dr. Latika Gupta and Prof Krishna Kumar were the resource persons for all the EGR workshops conducted by DoE. They are faculty members of Department of Education, Delhi University. Prof. Krishna Kumar is an internationally renowned academician and a recipient of Padma Shree Award from the President of India. He is widely known for his writings in the area of language and sociology of education.
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) funded this workshop through the Tibet Fund.

EESPA reports an E-invoicing growth of 29 per cent in 2016
Thursday 28th September, 2017
The European E-invoicing Service Providers Association (EESPA) reports a significant growth of 29% and over 1.6 billion processed e-invoices in 2016.
EESPA's fourth annual survey revealed 1,615 million electronic invoices were processed and delivered in 2016 by members of the European E-Invoicing Service Providers Association (EESPA). This represented a significant growth of 29 per cent over 2015 volumes of 1,252 million.
The majority of invoices processed were B2B or B2G (Business-to-Business or Business-to-Government) invoices (1035 million invoices in total in 2016), although the EESPA membership also has a significant involvement in the delivery of B2C (Business-to-Consumer) invoices (580 million invoices in total in 2016).
For the first time EESPA has received responses to a question "what is the average value of an invoice processed by your firm?" The figure derived from the relative limited range of responses was EUR 5868. On this basis, the total value of the reported invoices processed was EUR 9 477 billion.
EESPA Chair, Esa Tihilä, said, "This data is essential for European authorities in tracking the success of their policy initiatives in e-invoicing, and also signifies to those who have not yet started the e-invoicing journey, the value that e-invoicing makes to cost reduction, improved efficiency, competitiveness, liquidity generation and environmental benefits."
He added, "It is clear that e-invoicing service providers are a growing part of digital transformation. Reflecting our commitment to supporting the growing number of e-invoicing adopters, we encourage all our members to participate in this survey, now completed for the fourth year running".
EESPA members were asked to report the volume i.e. number of e-invoices delivered by them to buyers connected to their network or service, and also volumes delivered to buyers connected to another service provider.

A lot of parents make excuses for themselves when asked about exercising. At the same time, they would like their children to start to exercise. Parents are well aware of the benefits of exercising.
If you as a parent want to teach you child the benefits of exercising, why not work out together. Here are 6 benefits of exercising with your child;
Table of Contents for Article
1. Instill Exercise Habits
The habit of exercise must be instilled early. This should usually be done between the age of 8 and 12. Beyond this age, the parent loses the power to influence children and major influence comes from the child's social circle. Children must grow up knowing that exercising is as essential as eating and sleeping. They must be made aware of the benefits of exercising early in their life.
2. Makes Parent Answerable
Exercising with children makes you answerable. You need to keep at it so that your son or daughter keeps at it. Children will quit the moment you quit. As such, this is more beneficial to you than your child. It forces you to be more disciplined than if you were exercising by yourself.
3. Strengthens Relationships
Exercising together is a fantastic way to strengthen relationship. Parent-child relationship can only be strengthened when the two spend quality time together. Exercising together is a fantastic way to spend lots of time together.
4. Parent Does Not Have to Feel Guilty Exercising
A lot of parents do not exercise because they feel that exercise takes away time that can be spend with their children. They do this even when they know the tremendous benefits of exercising. The feeling of guilt keeps them from exercising. What better way to get over this than involving your children in exercise.
5. Forms Character
The act of exercising builds character in both parent and child. It builds character in the child because it forces the habit of discipline upon the child and the parent. Without discipline, the parent or the child will not be able to exercise for long.
6. Prevents Obesity
The main reason for obesity in children is a lack of exercise and consumption of calorie dense food. Little ones who exercise are rarely obese. Their bodies are yearning for activity. Activity keeps their metabolism in high gear.

Who else uses Ethical Consumer?
What's unique about Ethical Consumer?
We are a completely independent not-for-profit co-operative and since 1989 have been the leading research organisation in the consumer movement.
Our mission is to help consumers make informed ethical choices, support campaigners challenging corporate power, enable progressive businesses and charities to check their supply chains, and drive corporates to improve their behaviour.
We provide transparent and reliable ethical rankings for thousands of companies and products, all fed from our main database which has been built up over 20 years.
We rank companies and products according to 300 topics in 19 areas under 5 main categories. As a subscriber you can choose to personalise the scorecard ratings you see according to these different areas, depending on what is of most relevance to you. Your settings are saved in your profile and can be chaned at any time using the sliders on product or company guide pages.
How good is our data?
In 2011, as part of a potential joint venture with BBC Worldwide, our data was thoroughly stress-tested and passed by the research team from Panorama.
Some other shopping guides claim to provide similar ratings to ours, but these lack our depth, academic rigour, independence and transparency, and barely scratch the surface of what's really going on.
The few that do carry similar data to Ethical Consumer are designed primarily for investment funds and cost £1000s per year to access.
Can I purchase a subscription over the phone?
Yes, just call us on 0161 226 2929 with your credit card details.
How does the Trial Offer work?
You buy a subscription and if you don't want to continue with it you can cancel any time within the first 30 days to receive a full refund. To cancel just telephone us during office hours on 0161 226 2929 or email email@example.com
Do you have any special offers for Schools?
Yes, we offer a couple of options.
If you wish to make the website available to all the users on a school or educational network, we can do so with access restricted by IP address rather than password. This will allow up to 200 simultaneous logins. The cost is currently £85 +VAT (£99.88 in total).
If you want separate password log-ins, which allows customised settings, we offer 30 subscriptions for £300 +VAT - a saving of £600. Please email us or phone 0161 226 2929 for more information or to subscribe to this service.
Can I get the information you cover elsewhere?
Much of it yes, if you want to spend many hours doing your own research and keeping it up to date. We collect information from NGOs and campaign groups, government data, specialist periodicals, company Annual Reports and similar sources. You would also miss out on the analysis and context ECRA brings, the conveniently stored ratings and other tools.
There are also organisations that claim to provide similar ratings to ours for free, but these lack our depth, academic rigour, independence and transparency, and barely scratch the surface of what's really going on. The few that do carry simailar data to Ethical Consumer are designed primarily for investment funds and cost £1000s per year to access.
Will I use my subscription?
Our stats and feedback show that over 90% of web subscribers visit the site at least once a month, and the large majority of our subscribers regularly use Ethical Consumer to help them make purchasing decisions.
Even if you don't, you'll still be doing something with your subscription - helping all this to happen!
Still not sure? Subscribe today and if you aren't satisfied just cancel within 30 days to get a full refund!
