Rev. Ed was perfect for our event. He took the time to listen to our story and customized our event accordingly. He connected immediately with my family and is one of the best men of God I have ever met. He is highly recommended for any matter of the heart, especially a marriage.
My husband and I celebrated our 25th anniversary by renewing our vows on the beach in Sandbridge, VA where we were originally married. Pastor Cory was so easy to work with; he was very quick to reply to any questions/concerns that I had and took the time to meet with me before our ceremony to get to know each other and to make me feel at ease. I received several compliments from family members of his service, which he provided a copy of to me after the service! He is thoughtful, easy to work with and excellent at what he does. I'm so glad that I selected him and would not have any reservation recommending him to ANYONE! Thank you Pastor Cory for making our 25th Anniversary Vow Renewal Ceremony so special. With warm regards, Phil & Carol
When we signed accessed Clergy Care a few months ago, we werent sure what to expect. Within a few hours of registering on the site, Aaron emailed us. This was one of the luckiest moments of our lives. Finding Aaron to officiate our wedding was a true blessing. We enjoyed spending time with him prior to our wedding during pre-marital counseling and he made our wedding day so very special. Aaron was always prompt whether meeting in person or in responding to emails. He put our minds at ease and we knew that we could depend on him. He is kind, and personable, and has truly found his calling working with people as a minister to God. We will miss getting to spend time with Aaron. We instantly felt a connection with him which I think is always important for the minister that will be part of one of the most special days of your life. We would highly recommend him! He was absolutely wonderful.
Our counselor Anna helped us through a difficult time in our marriage. Her compassion and guidance was incredibly helpful.
A the Director of a residential treatment facility, I was looking for a counselor who fully understood the intricate details of one recovering from addictions; Full of Faith offered all the treatment counselling we needed and more. The counselor walked with our residents during their journey towards recovery.
Sir Walter Scott did an excellent job being our wedding officiant. He provided the service on short notice and traveled to our wedding location. Very pleasant and professional individual. Would recommend to anyone.
Kenny was lead pastor of our church for many years. He offered us invaluable marriage advice and made our wedding day full of smiles and joy. The ceremony was delightful and personalized. We would recommend him to any couple looking for a God centered, engaging wedding ceremony.
Diana Oh is very professional which I value a lot as a nurse. I was made to feel comfortable and truly feel like she has our best interest at heart. Diana always follows through on previous conversations and has different methods for us to use during our marriage counseling. As a couple who has never had counseling together, we are extremely satisfied with the entire process.
Resurrection Center Ministries provide excellent services. Elder Johnson is a wonderful counselor who provides quality feedback and advice during my husband and I pre and post marital counseling. I loved all of the techniques and scriptures he used for us to understand and apply to our day life. A book he recommend and applied to our premarital counseling is: The Language of Love & Respect by Dr. Eggerichs. The book is great for couple to understand each other. Elder Johnson is highly recommended by us, he is the best of the best.
Hilda was very helpful and did an excellent job. I really benefitted from her services.
Dr. Gudor is a wonderful personal counselor. My sessions with her have made a great positive difference in my life.
Rev. McLean was referred to us by our DJ. When planning a wedding, there are so many "things" that must be considered. Picking the right services and vendors can be quite overwhelming, because there are so many in each category. Further, we lived in New Jersey and our wedding was in Virginia Beach. Key to the event was selecting of the right Officiant. When we met Rev. McLean, we knew we'd made the right decision. He was down to earth, compassionate, and he offered us a variety of options. He was professional from the start, and the whole process was seamless. When I called, he was available to talk right away. When my husband-to-be and I met him we realized we had made a good choice and gave him a deposit. He provided quality care and service. He emailed us sample scripts, and selected the order which fit our vision for our wedding. We wanted it short and sweet. Rev McLean accommodated our wishes. He officiated with charm and efficiency. He led us through our vows and other details of the program in a timely manner. He was always available by email, or phone which made decision making incredibly worry free especially while so many other, equally important planning and decision making was taking place! Before the wedding, he reviewed and confirmed the details including arrival times, final payments, etc. Our guests complimented us during the receiving line and throughout the wedding on how nicely the ceremony was prepared. We highly recommend Rev McLean, you will be very pleased! ~Thanks Ron for making our wedding day the most beautiful day of our lives!

I woke up this morning in a cold sweat at around 6AM. I felt nervous but at the same time exuberance overcame my anxiety. After eating a quick breakfast, I left the house with an infectious positive attitude that I hoped would last throughout the day. Just a few hours prior to dismissal, I was told by Principal Evans that I would have to wear my Air Force JROTC dress blue uniform to the meeting tonight to represent De Anza High School. I agreed but contacted Don Gosney to ensure that I would meet the professional image that he set for us.
After coming home, I dressed into my JROTC uniform and headed out with my two friends, Cadet Quintana and Cadet Simundo. We felt our attitudes immediately change from mischievous high school sophomores to professional, polite and confident Air Force Airmen.

Once entering into the beautifully renovated Lovonya Dejean Middle School, I felt a really positive vibe between me and the other cohorts. I immediately met up with my other cohort members: Izabel, Saba, Deborah, and Alyanna along with our chaperone, Joyce Thrift. Soon after chatting with my cohort and chaperone, I could tell that we would get along incredibly well since we were not at all introverted with each other. Our conversations were lively, enjoyable, and just down right wonderful! It was almost as equivalent to conversing with an old friend from pre-school. Shortly before the start of the board meeting, we were given certificates recognizing us for our academic achievement and acceptance into the Ivy League Connection.
Now before the ILC was to present before the board, De Anza students and teachers were asked to present prior due to our recent Gold Ribbon Award. I stood alongside my fellow JROTC cadets at the position of parade rest as each teacher got up to the microphone to say a few words. A sense of pride overtook me until Principal Evans tapped me to speak. I was suddenly overcome by fear since I had no preparation at all. But I did my best and spoke to the best of my ability to represent both the cadets, the students, and the teachers and staff at De Anza High School.
Our cohort was the first one to present in front of the board. We walked up to the front of the board members with our Columbia University Flag with huge smiles and a huge sense of confidence. Our chaperone, Ms. Thrift, announced each of our names to the board members and what course we'd take at Columbia. Once Ms. Thrift announced my name, an overwhelming roar of cheers and applause overtook the room from my supportive JROTC cadets and De Anza teachers who were present at the meeting. After announcing our names to the board, Alyanna gave an eloquent speech thanking the ILC and the school board for this wonderful opportunity to study at one of the most prestigious learning institutions in the country.
After all the other cohorts had finished their presentations, we proceeded towards the gymnasium to take our official ILC group photo. Don did an excellent job in arranging all of us in our proper places. Don executed in a rapid yet professional way and in only a few moments, our ILC group shot was done! Afterwards, all the young men of the ILC requested for a group picture with our certificates.
As expected, all our mothers and fathers followed all of us to the courtyard of DeJean Middle School with their cameras and phones ready to bombard us with pictures.
Nice, neat, professional.
The 2015 Ivy League Connection Boy's "Squad"
At the end of the day, I came home exhausted but at the same time overjoyed by the fact that studying constitutional law was no longer a fading dream. I realized today that the door had finally opened and that a dream I had since I was 8 years old had now become an official reality. Thanks and kudos to the WCCUSD School Board, and the Ivy League Connection for beginning this wonderful opportunity for me and my fellow cohort members. We won't let you guys down!
My dad and I shortly after coming home.
Look at those fat smiles!

OS Explorer 197 map coordinates 3642 for Shingle Street.
I've been to Shingle Street twice, both times on my bike and early in the morning. Its quiet, deserted and very beautiful. I even saw a pair of seals on the spit. First trip I decided to go from Shingle St to Bawdsey along the coast, not easy and not recommended due to lack of track then almost vertical wooden ladder to get up onto the sea wall. Second time I settled for the road back to Hollesley.
This is roughly a 40 mile round trip, either back through Bawdsey or Hollesley, with fantastic sea views and bits of history with the Martello towers and Sutton Hoo.

I took Kian to see Dr. Bravo on Wednesday. We had an appointment to get him checked out to see if it was ok to go ahead and to blood tests. I wasn't sure he would want to do them since Kian is just getting over bronchitis - he doesn't have any symptoms anymore but Sunday was the last time we heard him wheezing. Also, when I took Kian in last Tuesday he was down to 15lbs 13ounces when he was 16lbs. 4 ounces the week before.
Well, this week I bring Kian in and his favorite nurse, Stacy, weighs him and he's 17lbs!!!!! Yep, that's right! He gained a pound and 3 ounces in a week! I was hoping that he would have gained at least 6 ounces but this is leaps and bounds above what I thought was a lofty goal for his weight this week! Stacy always balances the scale before she weighs him so I knew it was right but I looked at it several times! When the Dr. came him he checked the numbers twice and even checked the balance of the scale too! He was amazed! :) He actually asked me what I was doing Kian hehe I told him that Kian was very gaggy and vomited several times when I would feed him while he was sick so I would feed him a little bit at a time and more often throughout the day. Kian also only wanted yogurt for about two days in a row so I am sure that helped! lol (Thanks Yo-baby!)
The Dr. told me that he was going to go forward with the tests but he was 99% sure that Kian is fine! :) From what I know they tested for cystic fiborsis and growth hormone deficiency. There was one more test on there but I didn't know what it was for. The lab told me that the results for everything would be in in about 3-5 days (the CF test takes longer).
The Dr. also told me that I didn't need to come in for weekly weight checks anymore! I can come in whenever I want though to do it...he said that all the girls in the office know about Kian and they will help me check his weight. That was exciting! I think that I might go every other week for a while though just to give myself peace of mind.
Kian is feeling better and seems to be healthy....I am so proud of my little man! Now if we can get those two front teeth to come through so he would stop being a crab that would be AWESOME! lol
Kian's food aversion
Dr. Bravo told me that it actually has a name (I can't remember what it is though). Kian doesn't like any whole type foods in his mouth...he gags, vomits or spits it out of his mouth. It was REALLY bad when he was sick. He wouldn't even take Stage 2 baby food that is pureed. I asked Dr. Bravo what I should do about it and he told me that I didn't need to do anything that Kian will grow out of it. He also said that babies that have had a feeding tube often have this problem with eating (nice huh?). He told me to just stick with the Stage 2 foods as they have enough calories for him...so that is what we will do for now. I plan to try to give him a more whole type food every once in a while but for now he's still having gagging problems (even vomitted two days ago for some reason) so I'm not too concerned about it.

While Others Fall Silently to the Ground
(a note -- all facts in this article are as accurate as possible as of three days ago)
In 1867, as more white settlers moved West, American artist George Catlin frantically tried to record the lives of the remaining Native people. In his book Last Ramblings, Catlin wrote that when any white settler was killed, the press immediately cried "Indian murders! Indian murders of white people!" But when Native women and children died, their cries were "muffled and silenced. Glorious institution, the "Press," but how much more glorious if it were not one-sided!"
Over the month that I have lived in the West Bank, the press has vigorously covered the kidnapping and killing of one Israeli settler, and capture of one soldier and two additional Israeli deaths. Meanwhile, 27 unarmed Palestinians, including 7 children, have been killed quietly nearly without mention in the international press.
Yesterday, Israeli tanks invaded the Gaza Strip to secure the release of one captured Israeli solider. The Israeli military bombed Gaza's power plant, plunging the population into darkness and cutting off water. As I write, tanks continue the shelling. No estimates of casualties have been released and I wonder if we will ever really know how many have died in this invasion.
As soon as Corporal Gilad Shalit was kidnapped, Condalezza Rice was on camera to condemn the kidnapping as the violent act it was. But Secretary Rice had nothing to say about the 27 Palestinians recently killed. In fact, on June 9th when an Israeli naval boat fired a missile on families picnicking on the Gaza beach killing 8 people, including five children and their parents, our government immediatelyexcused the attack as necessary for Israel's security.
Now, as Israeli tanks shell Gaza, I wonder what Secretary Rice will say next. How many Palestinian deaths will be justified to free a single soldier, whose life is now in more danger because the clearly punitive nature of this so-called rescue operation?
Every time human life is taken in this conflict, our government should condemn the violence without first asking the nationality of the dead. But it is clear that when some people die we will cry "murder, murder" while we will let others fall silently to the ground. By supporting Israel's actions unconditionally, we do little to prove ourfriendship. Instead, we offer our support to the violation of Palestinian human rights and to a military occupation which breeds the terrorism Israelis fear. Our attitude is "Israel, right or wrong." I shudder to think what might happen if other countries so blindly supported America in similar unethical and counterproductive actions.
Currently, every year we give Israel $3 billion dollarsworth of unconditional support. To bring peace, American aid should come with conditions which apply equally to both Israel and Palestine. If Hamas must renounce violence and recognize Israel, then Israel must also renounce violence, end its occupation, and allow a Palestinian state to be established. If the United States begins to hold all parties to international law, perhaps the basis for a peaceful and just resolution to this conflict can be established.
Until then, those who live in this nightmare will watch as the tanks roll on.

Unbelievable, Isn't it? Its nice to have this analysis confirmed from someone other than an arab!!! Thank you Joy!! There has never been unbiased mediation in this conflict by the USA and thats why resentment has grown for the US by arabs. It's sad that our government does not see that they are hurting the region more than helping it.
Stay safe!
I have another blog I have been reading from a doctor in Gaza that is eye opening on what is going on right now, if you are interested.

Scientists at the African Centre of Excellence for Genomics of Infectious Diseases of Redeemer's University, Ede, Osun State, has developed and patented two rapid diagnosis test kits for the Ebola Virus Disease and Lassa Virus. According to the university, the kits are able to detect the virus in human body fluids in 10 minutes.
The Vice Chancellor of the university, Prof. Debo Adeyewa, said this on Friday during the signing of a memorandum of understanding on infectious disease surveillance and control between the ACEGID and the Lagos State Government.
Following the role of the university in the 2014 diagnosis and confirmation of the first index case of the EVD, Adeyewa said, the school had established a network of pathogens hunters in Nigeria and Africa in general by training scientists in the field of genomics.Read More….

Managing wolves (Canis lupus) to recover threatened woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) in Alberta

Across Canada, woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou (Gmelin, 1788)) populations are declining because of human-induced changes to food webs that are resulting in apparent competition-induced increases in predator-caused caribou mortality. We tested the hypothesis that wolf (Canis lupus L., 1758) population reduction could reverse declines in a woodland caribou population following a BACI (before-after-control-impact) design conducted over a 12-year period in west-central Alberta, Canada. We monitored annual survival for 172 adult female caribou and calf recruitment from 2000 through 2012 and conducted a provincial government delivered wolf population reduction program annually during the winters of 2005–2006 to 2012 (inclusive) in an area centered on the Little Smoky range. Wolf removal translated to a 4.6% increase in mean population growth rate of the Little Smoky population mostly through improvements in calf recruitment. In contrast, the Red Rock Prairie Creek control population exhibited a 4.7% decline. Although the wolf population reduction program appeared to stabilize the Little Smoky population, it did not lead to population increase, however, with λ remaining approximately equal to 1. Therefore, we recommend, if required, predation management be combined with effective habitat conservation and long-term planning to effect the recovery of species, such as woodland caribou, which are declining as a result of habitat-mediated apparent competition.

The Pros and Cons of a Breast Reduction Savanna Elevate Hudson Instructor: Pamela Congealed ENG 121 English Composition I July 29, 2014 The decision to have a breast reduction surgery came after years of continuous back pain throughout my life. My experience has been a real Journey in researching the right doctor and asking the right questions for this type of surgery. My Journey began in 2012 after many attempts to lose weight. I began doing several exercises with hope that my breast would firm up and I would see a change see a change with my weight.
After seeing no changes I decided to take another route. I tried many different diets, personal trainers, meal plans and body wrap suits. With that I tried I still say no results. Ultimately I decided that I should start looking into breast reduction surgery to see if it was a good fit for me. In 2014 after during all my research I find a surgeon and had my consultation. I was made aware of financial obligation which was ten-thousand dollars after discussing it with my significant other I then decided to have the surgery.
I was made aware of the complications that old come from having this particular surgery. The complications could range from bleeding during surgery, possible of a stroke, heart attack, are even blood clotting. After finding the right doctor and discussing all the pros and cons then, I decided that it would be well worth the risk to have the surgery. I express to the surgery I wanted my current double H -bra size reduce c-cup. A week before surgery I completed my pre-pop and was cleared for surgery due to all labs being normal. The surgery was approximately three hours longs.
I was immediately after surgery I was admitted into the hospital due to my inability to fully wake after the surgery. The next morning following surgery I waken with severe pain, swelling, and soreness. I had bandage wrapped around my entire breast area with drainage tubes on the left and right side. I was hospitalized for two days and unable to move due excruciating pain. After two days of being hospitalized I was being discharge and I received my aftercare instructions. My instructions were a bit rigorous because I had to remember several things.
These things included getting use to wearing a bra purport, remembering to take my medications, applying medicated cream to the incision creams, and continuing to drain my breast pumps and keep them clean after showering. My significant other helps me with all my personal needs. He helped me bathes, put on my clothes and shoes, and even feed me. I needed help because I was not able to fend for myself. After a week I had my first doctor visit sense surgery, and my bandages were removed as well as the tubs. I didn't know whether to be happy or cry when I looked at my scars in the mirror.
I observed the incision from the right underarm to my left underarm. I was also shown where both nipples were removed and replaced by being sewn back on. The doctor also told me he removed five pound of breast tissue from each breast. My doctor assured me that the swelling, drainage and pain would subside overtime. He also went over a few restriction that I had to follow while recover at home. I couldn't lift my arms over my head, no bending are stretching, no exercising, and no other strenuous activities. I would have three- four doctors visit before I would be able
I was out from work for eight week from the surgery. He also advised that the full recovery time could take up to one- two years. Since the reduction I went from a double H cup too C-cup and had to buy new clothes. I am now able to shop at my favorite which sis Victoria Secret. I really enjoy wearing tank tops, sun dresses, and sleeves shirts. Crop tops and sports bras. In going through with the surgery, it has been the greatest thing I could've done. I am happier than Vive been in years, and my health overall is excellent. Life as I know it now is awesome.
It is a great feeling to be able to run and play with the kids and not become short of breath, be able to function daily without any back pain, and most importantly wear clothing that looks great on me. I am no longer on a diet every other week. I have changed the way I eat, and Vive incorporated exercising, and increased my water intake for myself and my family as well. I learned how to buy the right foods, and how to eat them properly to ensure that it would help me burn calories. I would give word of advice to anyone that is thinking about having this surgery.
I would advise them to do extensive research on the doctors, always ask lots of questions and remember that no question is a dumb question. They're many research tools available such as you-tube, which how the actual footage of the procedure and Google is helpful information on specialist and procedure. I would also make sure that you truly know what the complications are, and how it will change your life before you decide to do it. I suggest that you have a good support system to get you through your recovery. I truly thank my significant other for all his purport and encouragement from the beginning to the end as well other family members.
It's also important to do your research on the surgery because it range anywhere from five thousand are more. I also make sure you're able to be out from work least eight weeks for this type for surgery. Overall, I would not recommend this major surgery to anyone if there are other options available. After listening to several women that had this procedure done, and comparing and contrasting I am proud to say that I could not be happier by having had this surgery. This has truly been a life changing event in my life.

An excerpt from Jason Bailey's new book, "It's Okay With Me: Hollywood, The 1970s, and the Return of the Private Eye."
From Tom Brennan, Santa Monica, CA:
I wanted to get post-debate commentary the minute I woke up. I turned on the computer and learned first that Paul Newman had died. This interrupted my news feed and made me think. Paul Newman was a true gentleman and a fighting spirit in real life; marching for civil rights in the early '60's, almost the first Star to do so; giving millions of dollars to deserving charities; and never living in desperate proximity to Hollywood, or the cult of empty vanity. He was a gentleman who utilized his stardom to contribute something lasting to our country.
Then I thought of the character that first made me love him as a screen persona. To a boy's imagination, seeing that epitome of composure under pressure named Cool Hand Luke was more than seeing an actor. It was being introduced to a brand of Americana. Cool Hand Luke is Paul Newman as the prisoner on a Southern chain gang who transcends the brutal pressure of a warden and group of guards who hate him, and remains true to his American sense of dignity.
Know your American Pop Culture and you are a patriot; because it is that lore that is the valuable thing we share as Americans. American Pop Culture gives us a sense, that alone among citizens in this world, somewhere in our country someone will produce a movie that changes our life again, or produce a CD that contains a song that becomes our anthem again. We are at our best as citizens in that way. All of America's vital tribes, from various Natives to various Immigrants, weaved together like strong copper wires. Luke was a screen character of unquenchable spirit, whom all races, and all ages relate to. That character is the the unquenchable American spirit itself.
Say what you will but the truth is that particular American spirit was most certainly the spirit that Senator Barack Obama embodied as he stood there looking across at the hectoring warden, played in "Cool Hand Luke" by the great character actor Strother Martin, and being played again on stage at Ole Miss Friday Night . "What we got here is a failure to communicate," Strother Martin bellowed with derision to Paul Newman's Luke.
In Real Life, we had on stage a string of litanies aimed at Senator Barack Obama as derisive as anything Strother Martin said, but uttered in front of all Americans and in front of the entire world. Like Strother Martin, the new warden taunted "….he doesn't understand""...what he fails to understand", "…and what he doesn't seem to understand", over and over And then this candidate capped that string of words with this commentary on Senator Obama's thinking: "…it's not naïve, it's dangerous". Showing disrespect for an American citizen who is a candidate for president.
Was that the intention of the Republican candidate in this debate? A candidate who brags about looking into Putin's eyes is at the same time somehow afraid or unable to look into Senator Barack Obama's eyes. I cannot really know, but showing blatant disrespect to Senator Barack Obama during a time when Americans are looking to the new President to be a stabilizing influence is a strange thing to do .In business, which I am in, and this candidate is not, looking a person in the eye is an American tradition. Period.
I would like to think well of the Republican candidate. But from his behavior, even if he isn't as mean as Strother Martin's warden all the time, we have to grant that there were other times during the debate when he snickered as zanily as Uncle Fester on the classic "Addams Family" TV show, when Fester would be running off to blow stuff up!
Now, I have nothing against Fester, we all have uncles; but Americans usually don't turn the machinery of governance over to Uncle Fester. We keep Fester in the family but Americans prefer the steadiness and grit of the Cool Hand Luke character. The steadiness and grit embodied by Senator Barack Obama.
We don't want to tune into The Inaugural Ceremony in January and see the President-elect with a lightbulb stuck in his mouth blinking on and off. That is not what is meant by passing the torch.

I had no idea when I moved to Springfield that I would be granted a front row seat to one of Kentucky's premier sporting events – racing! Now rather than hold these "need for speed" events at a sanctioned NASCAR venue or even on a dirt track, the participants of these events have cleverly decided to hold them on the public roadways.
