text: sometimes less really is more. this can be especially true when it comes to weddings. mike + anne-laure pulled off such an amazing day without a lot of the extra fluff that can make weddings the thing of nightmares. they kept things simple. elegant. lovely. they were in great hands with planning done by kate at green apple weddings (who i'd personally highly recommend if you're looking for an amazingly efficient yet laid back planner) their venue (the wainwright house) was so gorgeous in it's own right, that it hardly needed much decor. anne-laure's entire family came from france, giving the whole affair a distinctly parisienne feel. (what is it about kids speaking french that gets me everytime?!) i loved that in lieu of a bridal party, they just involved all the nieces + nephews in the ceremony... + I loved having tiny bowls of fresh berries at each place setting. (anne-laure also got lots of her little details from this great site) with out further ado... here they are:

Hepatitis C is contagious, but it is not easily transmitted. The only way the disease spreads is when the blood from someone infected with hepatitis C enters the bloodstream of an uninfected person, as reported by the American Liver Association.Continue Reading
Hepatitis C is not transmittable by kissing, hugging, sharing drinks, sneezing, coughing or any other means of casual contact, as noted by the American Liver Association. In the past, the disease was commonly spread or transmitted through blood transfusions and organ transplants, but since 1992 the screening of all donated blood and organs for hepatitis C has become standard procedure in the United States. As of 2015, the risk of infection is generally confined to people who share needles for injecting drugs.Learn more about STIs

The yellownecked caterpillar is a common site on crab apple, pin oak and birch trees. Other fruit and shade trees may be infested also. This insect is named for the large yellow dot that appears behind the head (where the neck would be, if caterpillars had necks) of mature larvae. Small caterpillars do not have the characteristic yellow spot though a light colored area may be visible. Small larvae are purplish, with slender white lengthwise stripes. Very small larvae feed in a cluster but as they grow they disperse throughout the entire tree. Large larvae change to a black-and-white striped pattern and sparse, fine hair on the body becomes apparent. Full grown length is approximately 2 inches.
Control of yellownecked caterpillars may be difficult to justify. Small, newly-transplanted or stressed trees would benefit most from protection by spraying with Bt, malathion, Sevin, Orthene or Dursban, particularly while the larvae are small. Spraying large, well-established trees is not usually necessary as occasional defoliation will not be fatal. Spraying large larvae that are nearly full grown is similarly futile as the damage has already occurred and the larvae will not be controlled before they quit feeding and move into the soil to pupate.

Happy New Year! I wish you all the best in 2013!
Wow! We had a great start of the year at school today. After the Christmas holidays we came back to a full PD day. At this time we were honored to have Pam Allyn, author of many books and director of LitWorld and LitLife.
My takeaway from today's sessions is:
- How can the 21st century tools help bring out the best of each and every child?
- Nowadays, everyone can get what they need from anybody. The challenge we face now is how to ask the right questions.
- 21st century school can help empower the shyest and most fearful child.
- Characteristics of 21st century learners: Connected, Collaborative, Critical Thinkers, Creative, Independent, Empathetic
- A paradigm shift is focusing on technology-based genres of text. For example, write a long essay and a short essay in Twitter form.
- The 21st century tools contribute to building empathy in the children. For example, in the community created in Facebook, in which people share and agree upon posts.
- "To be a master of content you have to be a strong reader." —Pam Allyn
Pam stressed that these are transformational times and that technology plays an important role, however it's not about teaching the tool, which will most likely be replaced by another one quite soon, but rather it's about empowering the students to thrive as learners in the 21st century.
Finally, I'll share a list of websites and apps that promote reading. They are all really good. Enjoy!

I've read this more than once on the board that it would be relatively easy for the US to invade and take over Canada. In a few hours some say. First off what would the motivation be? Well our natural resources of course. Oil, gas, water, etc. Do you think it would be that easy?
Canada is as well armed on a personal level as the States. We love our guns, we just don't go ape# over them. Think it would be easy? How did Viet Nam go? Iraq? Afghanistan? Now consider an enemy that looks like you. Speaks like you and acts like you do. Think it would be easy? You can't win a war of attrition against those that you can identify. What about an enemy that you CAN'T identify?
You want to talk terrorism? Hell, Jim Carrey could probably walk into the White house and blow the mother up. You see where I'm coming from. What aboot Mike from Canmore(regular guy). You going to stop him on the Saskatchewan or the Manitoban boarder? Plenty of easy ways to get into the States. Good luck DHS.
Is this going to happen or even likely to happen? Hell no. This is just for some that think this would be an easy go. It wouldn't be. You thought Viet Nam was tough? Iraq? Afghanistan? Try an enemy on your boarder that you can't identify. Badda BOOM. You'd be out within 2 years. You couldn't sustain what the Canadians could mount. Covertly. Yes, we could be easily run over by the US military machine but that's just the beginning. Try to hold it. We'd burn the WH down again.
As I said, this isn't for the average American. It's for the unthinking that see us as the "little brother". We're not. We don't need the US to protect us, we can take care of ourselves. Don't think so? Attack. It'll be your death knell.

Americans like you need to get the reality knocked back into them. Americ has tried twice to invade canada and lost both times, Canada is a huge country and there are lots of places to hide, do guerilla attacks, your military does not know our landscape, it would be like vietnam all over again. And also Americans like you need to realize america is no longer the most powerful country in the world. That would be china

I have my essential oils now what? DO NOT PUT THEM IN YOUR CLOSET! They won't do you any good there and they won't benefit you and your family! I suggest you get a container for them. I started simply with a Rubbermaid container and then moved to a glad ware container. Nothing fancy is necessary. Just place them all in one container and then keep them handy. I love having a lid on mine.
You will NOT see the benefit from your essential oils if you do not use them. You can't use 1 drop of Slim and Sassy and then skip for 3 days and think that you are going to be able to help your metabolism. You can't use the allergy remedy for 2 days and think that you will no longer have allergies.
What you can do is CREATE a daily oil regimen and follow it. If you use your essential oils daily you will see the benefits. In fact I have been using mine for 3 months and I continue to see more benefit daily.
Step Two: What are your health concerns? Write them down. Now go to eeoils.me and find the health concerns that you have and start the suggested protocols. NO you don't have to follow them all. If it lists 7 oils that help with anxiety start with one. Use the one that is in your kit first and then if that doesn't work for you consider ordering additional oils that are on that list.
Step Three: Visit StockpilingMoms.com for posts on the uses and benefits of essential oils. Follow our Essential Oils Pinterst board for inspiration.
Step Four: Consider ordering tools to help you get more benefit from the oils. You can order bottles, droppers, diffusers and much more at aromatools.com

The Camp
Our camp, Kuro, has long been a place where people have paused for a while to envelope themselves in Africa's wild natural beauty. You don't have to go far here to encounter the creatures that call this place home.
Kuro Tarangire is set amid a grove of Acacia and Kigelia trees on the banks of the Tarangire River - often a dry, sandy course snaking through this quiet area of the park. The area sees the rhythmic movement of wildlife as it traverses the park from the hills in the west to the swamps on the eastern side, and between the north and the south along the river line.
Conscious of wanting to experience this place in a way that harmonises with the natural tempo, without overpowering it, we've created a camp with a light footprint. At the culmination of each season we will move on like the Nomads we are, leaving only the trees and birds and animals, as if we were never here.
That's not to say that we don't like to be comfortable though. Our six light and stylish rooms are complete with comfortable beds, en-suite indoor and outdoor shower and flushing toilet. The family tent has two en-suite bedrooms and an adjoining sitting area. They rest amongst the trees with views over the African bush. We gather to share meals and relax under the cool grass thatch of the open-sided lounge and dining area which is furnished with hides and canvas, brought to life with a touch of colourful and tactile textiles.

The leading battery manufacturers in India seem to have had an average year in 2011-12, as their turnovers were not so impressive. A comparision of the 2011-12 data with their revenues for the FY 2010-11, clearly indicates that all the top manufacturers have grown just marginally.
Monday, May 13, 2013: Electronics Bazaar attempts to bring out a clear picture of the growth being witnessed by the battery manufacturers in India. We have ranked the top 10 battery manufacturers in the country based on their revenues in the FY 2011-12, which have been procured from the website of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA), Government of India.
When the revenues of the two financial years were compared, we noticed a slight change in the ranking position of the companies. Exide Industries, like previous year, has retained its No. 1 position, followed by Amara Raja. HBL Power Systems has moved up by a position taking the third rank, followed by Luminous Power Technologies. Su-Kam Power Systems dropped one position, ranking sixth in the rank. Base Corporation and Okaya Power, both moved one position higher in the current ranking list, whereas Southern Batteries and True Power International have retained their earlier positions.
While this survey is by no means comprehensive, it does provide a glimpse of the present condition of many of India's major battery manufacturers.
Disclaimer: While Electronics Bazaar's editorial team has taken the utmost care to contact all the possible sources to make the list comprehensive, we may have inadvertently left out a few companies from this list.

Democratic lawmakers have waded into what's becoming a messy union organizing battle at American Airlines.
Both senators and House members have sent letters to American Airlines CEO Tom Horton this week asking the airline to move forward with a union election at the company. The airline, in the midst of bankruptcy proceedings, filed a lawsuit against the National Mediation Board (NMB) earlier this month that objected to the agency setting a union election for the Communications Workers of America (CWA) at the company.
"While we respect American's right to pursue this issue through the court system, we strongly urge you to allow the election process to move forward in the interim. Your workers have the right to a prompt and fair election, and we urge you to respect that right," the senators wrote in their letter.
Harkin is chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee while Rockefeller is chairman of the Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee.
House Democrats from Illinois have followed up with Horton on the union election, as well.
In a letter sent Thursday, Reps. Jerry Costello, Jesse Jackson, Jr., Daniel Lipinski, Bobby Rush and Jan Schakowsky urged the company to release its workers' addresses to the NMB. Unions have charged that American Airlines has sought to delay the union election at the company by withholding the addresses.
The House members said in the letter that the addresses are required by law and that the airline's workers deserve "a fair and timely election."
"It has come to our attention that you have failed to provide the lawfully-required American Airlines employee addresses to the National Mediation Board, despite numerous deadlines set by the board. We ask that you recognize your workers' right to a fair and timely election and that you take immediate action to provide the employee addresses," the members wrote.
"In short, our legal counsel believes that upon judicial review the courts will determine that the dissenting view on the board will prevail and that, according to the law and judicial precedent, an election should not be held," Horton said. "To hold an election before such a determination is made would be an enormous waste of resources, particularly during this time of restructuring, and highly misleading and confusing for our employees."
CWA has sought to represent more than 9,000 passenger service agents at American Airlines.
In its lawsuit, the airline believes that a higher threshold should apply to triggering a union election under the Railway Labor Act.
American Airlines wants the NMB to apply a threshold of 50 percent of its passenger service agents indicating their interest in having a union election.
When CWA filed its petition in December 2011, the percentage threshold of workers for triggering a union election was 35 percent.
That threshold was later raised to 50 percent by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) reauthorization bill that became law in February this year.
In April, the NMB authorized a union election for the American Airlines passenger service agents and set its date, which was to be held from May 17 to June 19.
In its lawsuit, the airline said the agency was not right in setting the union election.
But in their letter to Horton, the senators say the change in the FAA reauthorization was never meant to be applied retroactively to union election petitions filed before the bill became law.
"Beyond the clearly established precedent that limits the retroactivity of changes in the law, in this case Congress included specific language in the amendments addressing this issue — the language specifies that the determination of the adequacy of showing of interest is made 'upon receipt of application," Reid and others wrote.
The Justice Department has also weighed in this week, filing a motion to dismiss American Airlines' lawsuit because they say the court does not have jurisdiction to rule on the matter.
Ed Wytkind, president of the Transportation Trades Department, AFL-CIO — which represents 32 unions across the transportation sector — said the airline was in the wrong.
