Middle School Teachers
Ashley Larimer-Kelly
Bachelor of Arts in Music Education K-12 from Albion College
This is my fifth year at Glen Lake Community Schools as the director of Vocal Music. I currently direct the high school vocal ensemble, North By Northwest, as well as Middle School Choir, Upper Elementary Choir, and Musical Theatre. I also teach Elementary General Music, direct the Musical, and direct the Glen Lake Summer Theatre Camp. I have also had the pleasure of directing the Glen Lake productions "Pal Joey", "The Little Mermaid", "Oliver!", "Aladdin", "Into The Woods", and "The Wizard Of Oz". Glen Lake vocal music ensembles perform at numerous concerts throughout the year, sing for various community organizations and service projects, and participate in Michigan Schools Vocal Music Association's Solo & Ensemble Festival as well as Choral Festival.
I am very passionate about choral music. As an educator in the Glen Lake Community Schools, I share this love for music with my students and seek to use this interest to inspire musical literacy, music appreciation and advanced choral performance. My goal is to use music as a tool for character development while focusing on creative expression, teamwork, work ethic, and internal motivation. Glen Lake has a wealth of talented students and I can't wait to see what we can accomplish together as a school and as a community!
Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family. I also love hiking, camping, fishing, boating, skiing, and I continue to sing in local ensembles and solo whenever I am able.

ARLINGTON, Texas, March 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics USA today announced the "final four" North Texas elementary schools that will compete for a physical education grant at LG's Coaches Cook-Off™ competition during the NCAA® Men's Final Four® weekend.
The four schools – Silver Creek Elementary School (Azle), Cesar Chavez Elementary School (Fort Worth) West Elementary School (Fort Worth) and Central Elementary School (Seagoville) – were selected through a grant application process implemented by Project Fit America.
Coaches from each North Texas elementary school will be teamed up with Baylor head coach Scott Drew and Texas A&M head coach Billie Kennedy during the annual culinary showdown on Saturday, April 5 in the Infiniti Tip-Off Tailgate at AT&T Stadium. Drew and Kennedy are both members of the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC).
An organization dedicated to helping schools create opportunities for youths to be active, fit and healthy, Project Fit America has raised more than $13 million for schools across the country. Dozens of local schools were vying for a chance to compete, and the four finalists were notified this week.

"We were touched by these coaches' dedication to their schools, and we are so pleased that our alliance with Project Fit will allow us to create a lasting impact in the North Texas area."
The LG Coaches Cook-Off is a centerpiece of LG's Do Game Day Right on-site activities at this year's Men's Final Four. Each team will have 30 minutes to cook a selection of tasty game day treats using a full suite of high-performance appliances in the LG Kitchen at AT&T Stadium. The coaches' dishes will be tasted and evaluated by panel of judges including college and pro basketball legend Clyde Drexler.
"Working with LG has proven to be a thrilling partnership," said Stacey Cook, executive director at Project Fit America. "We received such a positive response from the North Texas community, and we can't wait to see these four deserving schools compete in the LG Coaches Cook-Off."
The winning school will receive the LG Project Fit grant, which will be used for indoor and outdoor physical fitness facilities along with a curriculum and on-site training support to help physical education teachers incorporate the program into their school's academic plan. Additionally, all four schools will receive a variety of LG products, including ENERGY STAR® certified computer monitors, HDTVs and refrigerators.

Interview: Aaron Lewis
Page 2 of 2
What else are you working on?
Aaron Lewis: All the way up to November [2007] I was out on a solo tour. For almost a year of the time we were gone I was out playing acoustically.
Are you still working on a solo record?
AL: No. I'm thinking about a solo record. I'm not very good at working on anything, but I have seven or eight songs in the can.
What are you most proud of in your career, and your personal life?
AL: The song I wrote for my daughter, Zoe Jane, off 14 Shades of Grey, and my three daughters.
Tell us about your most extravagant purchase?
AL: Probably my house, but it wasn't a purchase; I built it. It took about five years.
Quick FactAaron Lewis played a version of "The Beetlejuice Song" live on Howard Stern's radio show in August 2005. His rendition has since become a huge hit with Stern fans.
What's the one quality you think all men should have?
AL: What happened to being nice? Everything is about being the coolest and having the best outfit on, using the right products and wearing the right cologne and all this stuff. How 'bout just being nice, and making a girl feel like a princess?
Who do you consider the ultimate man's man?
AL: Curt Gowdy or Hugh Hefner. But I guarantee you, as much of a pimp as Hugh Hefner is; I'll bet you he treats every girl like a princess.
What advice do you have for readers looking to become professional musicians?
AL: Don't get all caught up in anything. Any chance [Staind has] had to be on TV, we haven't necessarily taken it. Anytime we've been able to go to an awards show and walk down a red carpet, we've passed. We've played one award show in our entire career -- the MTV Music Awards. I think the fact that we haven't allowed ourselves to turn into the rock stars that everybody wanted us to be is probably why we're still here.
If you could change one thing about your career, what would it be?
AL: Nothing. There's nothing to complain about.

Sketches from Oslo.
We were in Oslo last week. My first time. I mentioned how much I loved Helsinki, but I fell head over heels for Oslo! It is a lovely city, with beautiful architecture, a warm ambiance, wonderful views, great people…it is wonderful! I can't wait to go back for a longer and a decent visit. My next stop will be Greenland!
Time was too pressed to do much, but at least I got to see "the scream" by Edvard Munch up and close, definitely not one of my favourite paintings. The secret to his work, I think, is that it should be viewed from a distance. His strokes are sometimes so messy and careless from close by that it bothers and disturbs the eye, but from far, his work has magic and I could even fall for "the vampire", though I dislike all kinds of vampire pictures and tales. His dawings and sketches and lithographs also attract me far more than his paintings and there you can really see that he has a swift and sure hand. I especially enjoyed his "Towards the forest" drawings, his alpha and omega series, his "Starry night", so different from Van gogh. I still can't really make up my mind whether the art of Edvard Munch "speaks" to me…but Oslo certainly does!
Photos of Oslo can be seen on Salmon-with-a-creamy-herb-sauce-and-a-trip-to-Oslo at Myfrenchkitchen.
All sketches done in pencil and watercolor in watercolor sketchbook.

I've never even thought of going to Oslo, but maybe I should! Glad you had such a lovely trip there, and brought back such beautiful sketches – the top and bottom buildings are quite a distinctive sort of architecture aren't they?
Re your comment on my sunflowers – I almost emailed to ask if I could get bigger photos of your sunflower references you generously offered, but saw you were away, so just used the one provided for the workshop – but maybe I'll do some more one day if the offer still stands…
March 17, 2010 at 9:42 pm
I do like these lively sketches – particularly the middle one with the vibrant blue colours. I always think sketches bring back so many more memories than photographs.
March 17, 2010 at 10:35 pm
Just lovely, Ronell. I really, really like your style very much, I always looked forward to your "sketch posts".
So glad your trip was a good one.

You are in an area I've never visited…yet! I like these. Your architectural renderings show just enough detail to show the charm of the buildings. I really like the second one with the canopied windows and the umbrellas. Nice work!!!
March 18, 2010 at 4:54 pm
Wonderful sketches! It sounds like an interesting place to visit.
March 18, 2010 at 7:21 pm
I haven't been to Helsinki or to Oslo though I did get to Stockholm and it was beautiful there. I'm imagining that these 3 cities might have a lot in common. So glad you enjoyed your visit.
March 20, 2010 at 10:12 pm
Fantastic sketches, Ronelle. I especially like the last one, with the toned-down colours. I´m glad you went to Oslo, so I got to see some drawings from there!
March 22, 2010 at 10:50 pm
A short visit, but you've managed to do three gorgeous sketches!! And they must have taken quite a long time too! I only went once to Stockholm (short visit too) and I also fell head over heels for the city – so different from all I know!

text: Inspiring Radiant Partnerships - Testimonials Testimonials Since 2004, I have had the opportunity to conduct many sessions for clients. There are three sections featuring: Testimonials for InstructorsTestimonials for AnimalsTestimonials for People Check back often. There are many more to follow! Testimonials for Instructors:"Eden's gentle nature and compassionate spirit come through in all she does! Animals are drawn to her sweet energy for Reiki, and her insightful comments made for great discussions in our animal Reiki class." Kathleen Prasad, Reiki Teacher at Animal Reiki Source "I have found Eden Koljord the finest of animal communicators. Her energy fills the room, and she was a loving magnet to my precious dog. I could witness the communication between my dog's eyes and Eden's." Dr. Patty LuckenbachAssociate Minister, Mile Hi Church "Eden, it has been such a pleasure to work with you, and to help you capture the essence of what you offer to your clients. Your compassion, intuition and love for people and their animals flows from your heart in such an inspiring way. Thank you for sharing your special gifts with the world...it is my honor and my pleasure to have you as a colleague, and I am looking forward to connecting with you for years to come!" Kathy KawalecOwner, Dancing Hearts Holistic Learning Center "I have found Eden to be thorough, professional, warm, and insightful with her communications and connections. Her inspired path of support for animals and their people will be a blessing for clients who engage her services." Carol SchultzFounder, Animal Spirit Healing & Education® Network "This is a reference letter to confirm that Eden Koljord is an excellent energy medicine and energy psychology practitioner who has trained with me both in the classroom and in the field with animals. In addition, she has taken her own initiative and time to become the best practitioner she can be and pursued advanced training with me whenever possible. Eden is great with animals, and she takes her work and clients quite seriously, which is an admirable quality in Eden and her work. Moreover, Eden has worked with my own dog companion, and both my dog and I were quite impressed with her work and her care. Any animal would be blessed to work with Eden." Much aloha, Dr. Sierra LevyFounder, Resonance Therapy® & Resonance Healing® Testimonials for Animals:"Eden is a very compassionate and sensitive animal communicator. She is completely pure hearted, sincere, and has the highest intentions. She works to seek out knowledge and understanding with gifted teachers and healers of animals and humans, and conscientiously absorbs their teaching. Animals are magnetically drawn to her. She helped me reconnect with a beloved cat, Tokatee, who had passed on. She helped me resolve the unwarranted feelings of guilt I still held concerning his passing. It brought me deep relief. It restored my relationship with him. She understood the kind of bond that I have with him. She was deeply respectful of my feelings about Tokatee and honored them as sacred. She also helped me when another cat, Griselda Durga Lakshmi (Gris for short), was ill. She facilitated as I brought forth for Gris a month of resplendent, glowing health before her passing. It was beautiful to see Gris as radiant as a princess. I was very impressed that Eden's counsel, as I worked to heal Gris, was impeccably respectful of the veterinarian with whom I also chose to work. There was no conflict with the naturopathic modality of the vet and Eden, who guided me with grounded, practical action, as well as the spiritual dimension. I highly recommend Eden without reservation." Pamela MelcherPortland, OR "I know Tica enjoyed her time with you, Eden. What a wonderful connection you have with animals - it is beautiful to witness. You drew each other to yourselves, that was evident. It is a connection on a deep level. Thank you for everything. Love and blessings." Erica Teel, RScPLakewood, CO "One of my dogs, Nike (a two-year-old Chihuahua Miniature Pinscher mix), sustained a fractured left front leg in his prior home with small children. This injury required two surgeries. In addition, he spent 7.5 months in a kennel at the Max Fund (a rescue facility) where he was well cared for. The bones healed and left the leg shorter than the other legs. In addition, ligaments in the leg are non-supporting for life. He wears a brace(OrthoPets) to support his ligaments along with a lift to make up for the loss of length in the leg. The brace is a lifelong commitment to prevent further serious damage and to support the leg. Otherwise, he could sustain more fractures and significant pain. I ran into a problem with Nike on two levels: he decided he didn't want to wear his brace, and was attempting to bite me when I approached him regarding his brace. As I mentioned, it is not an option for him to not wear the brace. Further, if he bit me or anyone else, I may have to return him to the Max Fund where he would, in all probability, live the rest of his life in a kennel. A further concern was Nike and his brother, Brode (a Yorkiepoo), were copying each other in doing their "business" in the house instead of outside. Nike never learned this while living in a kennel, and now in our home, it is important for him to relieve himself outside. Eden was absolutely wonderful and both dogs loved her. She did Reiki on Nike as she was talking with us. Nike yawned in his relaxation. We explained to him the danger of not wearing the brace, and why it is so very important. He told her he didn't like the way I was applying his brace. He demonstrated how he was willing to have the brace applied, and I complied. We spoke of Nike and Brode doing their "business" outside. While Eden was here, I put Nike's brace on him without any difficulty. Then, the four of us enjoyed a walk together. Since Eden's visit, Nike and Brode have both done their "business" outside. I remind Nike about his agreements with the brace. To say that I am so very pleased with the gentle guiding energy and communication of Eden would be a major understatement. My dogs and I let go of a lot of stress just by acknowledging it and coming to terms together. My dogs and I will be moving into our new home soon, and I am going to have Eden visit with us there. I hope each of you take an opportunity to have Eden meet with your pets, so harmony prevails." Patricia C. Berger, ANP, HNCLakewood, CO "The instant the door opened, Kitty and Eden looked at each other and connected. Eden shared things about Kitty that I had a vague awareness of, and other things which I had no awareness of at all. As a result, I realized how ethereal, spiritual, and intelligent my Kitty was. Yes, I loved him dearly, but after the experience with Eden, I began to honor him for the outstanding feline that he was. You will note that I am using the past tense, because Eden commented that Kitty was not "quite right." The next day, I took him to a homeopathic vet I found using her website (www.ahvma.org) and learned that Kitty had pancreatic cancer. Thank goodness I learned all I did about Kitty before he was humanely euthanized. Having an animal companion is akin to having another person living with you. Every person should have an Animal Communicator with the qualifications and experience that Eden has to let you know the personality, character, and thoughts your animal companion(s) have about living with you." Don StraneyLakewood, CO "I was amazed how my dogs reacted to Eden. They were so calm like I have never seen before especially for someone new visiting. She definitely had a connection with both my dogs. You could tell Sadie was listening to her, and she definitely had an energy shift. I would highly recommend Eden having a visit with your dogs, and I am going to have her back for another chat soon." Liz BohlkeFlagstaff, AZ "I would like to tell you about my experience with Eden and animal communication. First, I have to admit that I struggle with skepticism, having lived my entire life in the scientific and medical realm. I am open to alternate realities, but I always evaluate where on the scale of "real deal" or authentic to scam artist, even fraudulent, the healer is. I have worked with a number of alternative healers. Eden is one of the very few that I would deem completely authentic, credible, and honest. Everything Eden said "clicked" or fit with my own perceptions and intuition about the questions that I had about Lucy, such as how to alleviate her separation anxiety and her finicky eating. For example, often the only way she would eat would be for me to hand feed her. Even then, sometimes, she wouldn't eat. I thought she simply didn't enjoy eating. Eden "saw" her eating in a specific spot, out of a specific feeding dish, and a specific food. I had expensive, high quality canned dog food that I threw in the garbage in favor of what Lucy showed her. She ate every bite, out of her bowl, no hand feeding! And she ate with enthusiasm, as Eden told me "she likes to eat, but she kind of wrinkles up her nose when she thinks about eating the canned and dry food that she is currently being fed." I have a peace of mind with Lucy now that I haven't had since I adopted her four months ago. I truly believe that Eden connected with her and that Lucy and I, through Eden, were able to communicate and connect deeply. Eden told me "you can learn to do this, yourself. You can communicate with your pets." She gave me information on a workshop with Penelope Smith. So, with Eden, yes, she will do a reading on your animal companion, but she will also help you communicate and connect on a deeper level and in your daily lives together. I am deeply grateful to Eden and Spirit who brought us together." Susan Rieck, PhD, RN Assist. Dean of the School of Nursing, Northern Arizona University (retired) Flagstaff, AZ "Without any reservations I highly recommend Eden, if you want to understand your horse better, she is amazing." J.D. ProtivaFlagstaff, AZ "Eden is an intuitive and skilled communicator. Her conversation with my wonderful cat, Toby, provided more insight than I could have ever imagined, rising to a spirit level. Toby responded to Eden's loving Reiki touch with intense purring and deep relaxation. On a practical note, Eden's discussion of a destructive behavior with Toby led to the elimination of that problem. Thank you Eden, for sharing your amazing talent." LinMinnesota "Eden conducted two distance healing sessions with our dog Sadie and I noticed an immediate difference following her first session. Prior to that first session, Sadie whined. Following that first session, she stopped whining. The change was remarkable and much appreciated! I also attribute Sadie's understanding of "cooperation" and "being a good neighbor" to her sessions with Eden. When I use the word cooperate, you can see the wheels turning and I know she understands what I'm saying. Sadie demonstrated how to be a good neighbor to a mother deer who chose our neighborhood to raise her two babies in the weeks following their birth. We told Sadie she needed to be a good neighbor, and we asked her to watch out for the babies and not scare them by barking. She responded by quietly lying on the deck or in the grass watching them, no barking. When mom and/or the babies were in the grass next to our split rail fence, Sadie quietly watched and again, she did not bark. It was inspiring to watch as she frequently barks at the squirrels, birds, and cats that encroach on our yard. The quality of our relationship with Sadie has improved since her distance healing sessions. I would highly recommend Eden to anyone who needs guidance with their pet. She is genuinely concerned for both you and your pet and her guidance is done with care and concern." Peggy, RNColorado Springs, CO "I contacted Eden because in the course of a year, my family had acquired several companion animals, and I wanted to make sure that everyone was content being at our home. Even though I had minimal questions to ask, I received much information from the session. Eden communicated with all of our companions, and I am assured that two dogs, six birds, a cat, two hamsters and a fish can live harmoniously with each other in our home. I have a better understanding of how to speak to each one in a manner that each finds valuable and meaningful to that particular soul. An example of how Eden's visit made an immediate difference: Our Nanday conure was due to have his nails trimmed, and was nippy and biting everyone but one family member. After Eden's visit, he has been less nippy and when we went to get his nails trimmed, the vet and assistant were astonished with how good he was cooperating with the procedure!" Keri KramerLa Crosse, WI "I had Eden conduct a Reiki session with my big gelding, Chesty, and found it to be a very beneficial session. Chesty is a horse that tenses up anytime anyone would go near him unless he really knows you. Eden's own energy seemed to have a soothing effect on him and as she continued to perform the Reiki on him, he seemed to settle even more. These days Chesty is a much more relaxed horse and I attribute this to the Reiki sessions Eden conducted with him." Barb H.Rhinelander, WI "Sassy is an intelligent, spirited, and somewhat neurotic dog who can read people very well. The very first encounter Eden had with Sassy she immediately put her at ease and a very special bond was formed. Sassy is definitely MY dog and very attached to me. "Mama Eden", as she became known, was the only person I would even think of leaving Sassy with. Eden's ability to connect with animals and understand them is uncanny. Several times Eden performed energy work on Sassy and immediately she would respond and become calm and relaxed. I know this is why Sassy became so attached to her. When Eden moved out of the area to advance her career, Sassy was visibly upset. I know she misses her dearly. I would highly recommend Eden for all types of energy work. Her intuition, skills, and healing abilities exceed any I have encountered and she is obviously very gifted in all aspects of the healing arts." Rose WichRhinelander, Wisconsin Testimonials for People:"In the summer of 2010, I lost my very dear cat Kensington. It was a devastating period in my life to lose a pet who had been my partner in life for eight years and then was suddenly taken away. I learned of Eden's healing powers for humans through her website. She was able to come into my life at the time I needed someone the most. Eden took the time to help me connect spiritually with my cat. I was unaware of how truly connected our spirits are with those around us. Through her guidance, encouragement and instruction I found the will to heal. I feel blessed to have found Eden and been touched by her kindness and generosity."Molli FunkMinnesota "At a time that we were experiencing deep sorrow and guilt over the loss of our pet, Eden stepped into our lives offering compassion, hope and wisdom. Her emotional support and resources comforted us in our journey of grief. Thank you, Eden, for the kindness which is such a part of you." Lin Minnesota "Eden Koljord is a remarkable healer who taught me about animal energetics that I have been able to use with my own pets, very successfully on several occasions. I've also been fortunate to have Eden work with me. She was able to unlock a hidden truth that I had long ago blocked and yet held remnants of the pain deep inside. Eden helped me to integrate my loss, and thus experience equal amounts of joy and self love. Eden is a very talented Resonance Therapist, whom I trust and would highly recommend." Joan I. Hedges, N.D. McMinnville, OR "I had several Resonance Therapy sessions with Eden earlier this year (2010). Although unfamiliar with this modality, I was willing to address a physical issue and an emotional concern with Eden and this approach. A painful neck/shoulder/upper arm, which I thought was a returned pinched nerve and had endured for over a month, subsided within days of our session. It was absent (and forgotten!) in less than two weeks. My emotional concern had an even more immediate improvement. Under Eden's careful and compassionate guidance into and through Resonance Therapy techniques, I experienced a gentle "ahhh" understanding of this emotional tension and felt it crumble. What I also know is that when my neck/shoulder/upper arm pain flared last month, I imagined having another session with Eden, lying on her table and being guided through Resonance Therapy. Within days, my pain was again gone and forgotten. It is unimportant to me to intellectualize Resonance Therapy, to dissect it, to understand why it produces results. I simply know that Resonance Therapy, as practiced by Eden who understands its nuts and bolts, has effectively and efficiently assisted me in improving the quality of my physical and emotional life." WendyNorway "You are such a kind and compassionate person. I felt comfortable being around you the moment we met. I am grateful that I had the opportunity to work with you. Thank you for not only relaying the messages I needed to hear, but for taking the time to guide me to develop my own way of receiving those messages. Thank you for giving me the gift of knowing that I am loved and to trust my own intuition. Thank you for so kindly conveying that although I, as others, have gifts also, it is OK to not have the desire to work in the healing field. It's OK to be at the level I am at. I cannot put into words all that you have given me.....so just let me thank you for sharing your gifts with others."

Sacramento, California (PRWEB) February 18, 2014
For all individuals interested in widely expanding their knowledge of the medical marijuana industry, look no further than the Cannabis Career Institute. Highly experienced and educated instructors have put together a fully comprehensive, all-encompassing curriculum which covers all aspects within the industry for a highly concentrated course outline. Whether students are patients, caregivers, or simply individuals seeking to further their understanding of this thriving industry, the Cannabis Career Institute promises to provide attendees with a thorough and deep understanding of the medical marijuana industry and its many available venues to become involved in.
Students are encouraged to ask questions and become active participants in the course, as the motto of the Cannabis Career Institute is knowledge is empowerment. The highly experienced instructors have taught many of the individuals who have gone on to start similar marijuana education schools. Those who attend the CCI course will leave with a list of tasks to accomplish and the absolute confidence to do so. From seed to sale, students are walked through an incredibly clear-cut, step-by-step outline of the industry through multiple lenses, to gain a wider and far more conscious, well-rounded perspective. Topics are covered from delivery and dispensary to management, law, marketing and advertising and cultivation and cooking.
The Cannabis Career Institute provides students with the tools necessary to properly hone in one of the many venues affiliated with the medical marijuana industry. Students attending the course will be met with specific guidelines establishing the different ways in which creating, branding and marketing an industry collective can be individually utilized.
On February 22nd, individuals from far and wide are encouraged to attend California's second Cannabis Career Institute course held at the Sacramento DoubleTree Hotel. In 1996, under Proposition 215 passed by a voter initiative, California made history by becoming the first state in the nation to legalize marijuana for medicinal purposes.
By instilling the tools of the trade within all students choosing to attend the Cannabis Career Institute, instructors seek to ensure students stay ahead of the curve in this burgeoning industry. For all individuals wishing to broaden their horizons and widely expand their knowledge regarding the medicinal marijuana industry, this once in a lifetime opportunity is not one to be missed.

Getting closer to a mid life crisis? Gosh I hope not, how come!
They say its catching us today almost 20 years later than it used to catch in the 50's or 60's. Guess what, instead of 30 year old depressed ones there are plenty of 50+, lively and overflowing with not only a spent-my-time-with-TV desire …
I don't think it exists in my family or between people I know but ageism is (or used to be ?) a crawling feature of our modern society. Especially in TV and press but also in social media old people usually play their role of a wiseman, wizzard or authority. In one of Tadeusz Różewicz best known poems "The Story of Old Women" you will find simple but shocking true about age:
only fools laugh
at old women
Think how old are you and just look at Madonna. She is a fighter. Same as she was fighting at the beginning of her carrier with stereotypes, social boundaries, cliches, border lines and with every new album reaching further and still today she is crossing the line of domesticated and invisible fifties and becomes again an icon for both younger and older.
Listen to what Madonna had to say on ageism two decades ago or read an article on her fight from The Guardian
You want more? Here you go with Ian McKellen & Derek Jacobi from delicious Vicious, a new television series on ITV. Forget about Gandalf or Claudius now there are just Freddie and Steve, the stars! Marching at the head of the gay protests across the globe they both indeed fight with discrimination on two fronts.
You must see this brilliant TV series, even if a sitcom is not your cup of humor (as it wasn't mine neither) . Together with Frances de la Tour this vibrant trio is just breaking the TV screens with enormous portions of good laugh and straight-to-the-point acrimonious remarks. Just listen carefully and remember to what they have to say on being together for 49 years as it might be useful at some point if not already…
If you still not convinced have a read on NYT page
Now, if you think its too late for a new start up, new business or your dream job you probably haven't met Barbara yet. I want her to be my coach, I want is she doing with these young folks at IDEO where she works as designer to invent or improve solutions for older generations. Reading one of my favorite quotes from this amazing women just gives me more power to do what I love to do and to continue doing it till I can. And keep enjoying it. Read more about Barbara here or just watch a short program on youtube.
"The ironic thing is that aging is the one thing we have in common, if we're lucky."
Barbara Beskind
…and here the last lines just to be accurate and honest: Madonna is 56 , Ian McKellen – 76, Derek Jacobi – 77, Barbara Beskind – 91 and me – 39.

Thu, 02 Jun 2016 09:00:00 PermalinkHer name used to be Beth. When her world fell apart and her father was accused of being a serial killer, her name brought her nothing but trouble. They called her a murderer and worse. She's moved on, has a new life and a new name. Bex is even beginning to make new friends at school and she likes the new couple that took her in. Then she gets a note to let her know her missing father has found her...
Sourcebooks Fire and Net Galley allowed me to read this book for review (thank you). It will be published July 1st.
This is a scary tale with lots of psychological manipulation by her father and by the cop who is still looking for him. She wants to believe her dad and he wants her to go away with him. She's not sure she wants to do that. She has a boyfriend she really likes and her new life is good. But she does miss her dad.
Bex learns a lot things in a short period of time. She's with people she can trust now, they are willing to protect her, and she even answers the question of who was really killing all those girls. She's changed but it's definitely for the better. The ending was perfect.

It feels very sad and bad when we lose a teacher who is very close and favourite to us. A 16 year old boy Chetan Gowda lost his most favourite teacher due to lack of blood in blood banks and learnt a tough lesson in his life.
Now this 16 year old Chetan Gowda has grabbed many eyeballs with his remarkable work of providing blood to others.
It was in the month of May in the year 2016 he surprised many around him when he launched his own non-profit organization titled "Khoon''. His organization does sensational job of arranging blood for people when blood banks and other sources don't have blood and by this work Chetan Gowda and his organization are famous now.
According to Chetan Gowda nobody in this world should die because of lack of blood which is available in our bodies and this attitude of his is superb. Recently he spoke his heart out to the famous magazine "Bangalore Mirror'' and touched on fee things. He spoke about how India has got abundant blood but many people die due to lack of blood. He further said that he did not want this to happen again.
It is now brought out that this NGO " Khoon'' has got list of many blood donors and people who needs blood badly get in touch with Chetan Gowda and he shows these people to the blood donors and helps them.
His friends provide superb help to him and Chetan Gowda is able to trace the blood availability easily by connecting donor to the person who needs blood. At the age of 16 when kids are involved in different activities this Chetan Gowda providing help for others is really sensational.

What to do when your baby gets a high fever? A very worrying time for any Mum. There is a homeopathic remedy called Belladonna which is very effective at lowering temperatures. Symptoms that indicate it are flushed cheeks, dry lips, very hot to touch, heat around the head ( heat tends to be dry with not much sweating) but cold feet (as all the energy is drawn up to the head during the fever). The pupils will be dilated and there will be a 'staring' look in the eyes. Belladonna is also really useful for ear infections where the right ear is affected. Belladonna also helps sore throats - fiery red inside sometimes accompanied by inflamed tonsils and other above-mentioned symptoms.
All Belladonna complaints come on suddenly without warning or build-up especially at night time. And funnily enough children who are particularly susceptible to a sudden temperature may get sick after getting their hair wet or after having a hair-cut. Use the 30c potency as that is more effective. If you acquire the remedy in pill form - dissolve in a glass of water, give a teaspoon for each dose. Keep the glass covered and stir vigorously before administering each teaspoon. 1 teaspoon = 1 dose. Give between 1-3 doses over a 12-18 hour period. It works wonders. Because it is a natural remedy you will notice your child's appetite and good form will return very quickly alongside the temperature disappearing. Which does not always happen with the use of Paracetamol-containing products. Belladonna is a staple remedy to have in the house for families: for sudden high fevers, ear infections and sore throats. It may also be used for teething if your baby has a high fever and red cheeks with the pains.
In suspected Meningitis cases, give Belladonna on your way to the hospital. Belladonna may also be used for any adverse reactions to MMR or the meningococcus vaccines if the symptoms start with a high fever.
I wouldn't be without it. Why not give it a try next time you reach for the Calpol?

Capertee Valley Landcare... Planning a Bush walk.
Capertee Valley Landcare is having a walk along the Tramway Trail at Mt Airly.
Sunday 21 June 2017.
10.00 am at the Airly Campground. If you are uncertain of where this is we can arrange to meet at the Capertee River bridge at threeways.
NPWS brochure: "Tramway Trail – follows the old oil shale mine tramway route around the contour of Mount Airly and through the ruins of Airly village. Distance: 5.5km each way"
My plan is to make this a gentle stroll, going only as far as the big boiler halfway, taking time to examine the old village ruins and stopping at the boiler for a snack. If anyone wants to go the whole way they'll need to do the last section without my guidance. The views are great at the top.
Bring your own water, snacks and lunch, hat, camera.
RSVP It will be helpful to know who's coming, by reply to this or phone me.

Why your New Year's resolution should be to work less
Those smug people who brag about their 90-hour workweeks can stop already, because a new "productivity experiment" shows it's actually more effective to work 20 hours a week.
Canadian author Chris Bailey experimented with switching back and forth between two extreme schedules. He alternated between working a 20-hour workweek and a 90-hour workweek for a month. Though you might assume you'd get more done during the longer workweeks, the opposite turned out to be true.
"After slogging through one 90-hour week and one 20-hour week," writes Bailey in an excerpt of his new book The Productivity Project: Accomplishing More by Managing Your Time, Attention, and Energy Better in the National Post, "I quickly discovered something breathtaking when I was looking through my experiment logs: I accomplished only a bit more working 90-hour weeks than I did in my 20-hour weeks."
Working less increases focus
How could you barely accomplish more working quadruple the hours you worked in the previous week? Bailey found it all came down to the fact that he approached his work with less-focused bursts when he worked the longer weeks: "When I invested more time in my work during my insane weeks, my work became a lot less urgent; on a minute-by-minute basis, I invested less energy and focus into everything I intended to get done," he writes. "But when I had a limited amount of time in my 20-hour weeks, I forced myself to expend significantly more energy and focus over that shorter period of time so I could get everything done I had to do."
Working too much zaps energy levels
People who pull double shifts on the regular aren't going to be as effective workers as those who have time to get a good night's sleep and have some downtime between shifts. "Working 90 hours a week for any longer than one week is a recipe for burnout. Doing so leaves you with hardly any time to recharge your energy levels and focus," writes Bailey. He adds that "working longer hours means having less time to refocus and recharge, which leads to more stress and lower energy."
More: 8 Health rules every career woman should follow
Busyness and productivity aren't the same thing
Even though you're less productive when you put in ridiculously long hours, you'll probably still feel a self-satisfied sense of accomplishment sneaking in. Bailey found that he felt more productive during his longer workweeks even though he worked less efficiently:
"It's hard not to feel productive when you're busy all day long," he writes. "But busyness does not translate into productivity if it doesn't lead you to accomplish anything."
More: How I successfully went from a corporate job to a work-at-home mom
Work smarter, not longer
Ultimately everyone has to find their own sweet spot when it comes to productivity, whether that's 20 hours a week or 40.
"Limiting how much time you spend on your work — whether on an important task or on your work in general — is a great way to spend your time, attention, and energy wisely," writes Bailey.
So next time you sit down to work on a project, try setting a time limit. You may be surprised to find out how much you get done and be able to buy yourself more time to enjoy your life in the process.
Well, that's all the convincing I need — time to slap my laptop shut and recharge with some popcorn and Netflix!

How to decorate with vintage wall charts
Discover how to introduce painterly shapes and patterns into your home using educational posters
The 19th century was an exciting time in the classrooms of Europe. Suddenly, children who had never seen a pineapple or other foreign crops could gaze at illustrations of them on wall charts. Before long, these educational aids encompassed all manner of subjects; the teacher, pointer in hand, would tap the charts and explain how a cocoa bean became chocolate, the life cycle of an insect or the anatomy of homo sapiens.
Today, educational wall charts are prized by collectors and interior designers. Rendered obsolete in a digital age, these leftovers from bygone classrooms are highly coveted yet still relatively affordable. They are also a key part of the industrial, old schoolroom interiors look that sees institutional pieces such as blackboards, desks, laboratory apparatus and gym lockers making statements in our homes.
1. Invite the colours of autumn into your home using dark graphic wall charts that inspire the rest of your room.
Jung, Koch & Quentell wall charts, 'Cockchafer', £85; 'Horsetail', £140, both Wild Strawberry Prints. Mahogany console, £625, The Old Cinema. On console: 'Newstead' candle holder, £25, Habitat; West German yellow-and-green stamped vase, £45; vintage 'Binga' basket, £32; vintage carved fruit in bowl, £29, all Mustard Vintage; Italian green glass vase, £38, Homeplace; terracotta plant pot, find similar at Petersham Nurseries. Robert Heritage drum dining table, £2,800; Moller rosewood chairs, £3,400 for set of six, all Gazelles of Lyndhurst. On table: black sugar pot, £15.95; black milk jug, £10.95 (just seen); black oak chopping boards, from £29 each; black earthenware mug, £30 for four, all Rockett St George; West German green vase, £38; 1970s-inspired teapot, £38, both Homeplace; oil printed file boxes, £42 each, Retrouvius. On chairs: sheepskin rug, £59, Rockett St George; 'Safira' cashmere green throw, £1,249; 'Era' cashmere throw, £699, both Oyuna
2. Blend botanical charts together in a formal arrangement and use ornate gilt lighting for a more grown-up look.
Walls painted in 'Pearl' Colour 100 Absolute Matt Emulsion, £42 per 2.5l, Little Greene. Equine wall chart, £145; butterfly wall chart, £165; Regency-style gilt palm sconce, £275, all Homeplace. 'Ryegrass' wall chart, by Jung, Koch & Quentell, £140, Wild Strawberry Prints. 'Meadow Saffron' wall chart by Jung, Koch & Quentell, £367, Mighty Vintage at Pamono. 'Mara' marble side table, £150; marble candle stick, £30, both Habitat. Evertaut stool, £360, Elemental. 'Painterly' rug, £1,400, Amy Kent. On side table: retro rust German vase, £28, Homeplace; oil printed file boxes, £42 each, Retrouvius; seagrass basket, £24, Rockett St George; terracotta plant pot, find similar at Petersham Nurseries. Bistro table, £165; antique French sofa, £1,895, both The Old Cinema. Vintage embroidered pear cushion, £35, Mustard Vintage. Robert Gillmor 'Red Breasted Geese' cushion, £26.99, We Love Cushions. Vintage Welsh blanket, £294, Retrouvius. 'Salisbury 5' stove, £1,080, Chesney's. Vintage 'Beni Ourain' pouffe cover, £195, Yonder Living
3. Contrast scale and eras – place a modern mural next to a vintage wall chart. Retain space between them to keep the scheme contemporary and chic.
Jung, Koch & Quentell 'Carp' wall chart, £95, Wild Strawberry Prints. 'Poissons, Ecrevisses et Crabes' mural, £65 per sq m, Surface View. 'Cloud' chair, £650, Rockett St George. Vintage library chair, £1,195, The Old Cinema. 'Toscani' cashmere throw, £699, Oyuna. Robert Gillmor 'Sunset Flight' cushion, £26.99, We Love Cushions. 'Painterly' rug, £1,400, Amy Kent
4. Gather together charts on a similar theme: fruit and vegetables, for example, are an ideal composition for the kitchen or dining room.
Wall charts (from left): Vintage Danish botanical wall chart #5, £35, Mustard Vintage; Czech 1930s botanical wall chart, £48, Otto's Antiques; mushroom prints, £12.99 each, Wild Strawberry Prints. Coat hangers, from a selection at John Lewis. Oak steps, find similar at The Old Cinema. Plants and pots, find similar at Petersham Nurseries. Lights, find similar at Encore Reclamation.

On sink unit: coffee drip stand, £120, Rockett St George; 'Malta' black oven dish, £35, Habitat; ceramic serving board, £22; yellow West German pitcher, £34; blue West German pitcher, £36, all Homeplace
5. Using a vintage iron hook to attach a chart to the wall creates a more curated finish than merely hanging from a nail.
Jung, Koch & Quentell 'Mushroom' wall chart, £135, Ars Vivendi Thonhauser at Pamono. Danish modern trolley, £165, Homeplace. Linen sack, £42; iron wall hook, £54, both Retrouvius. 'Perdita' splatter oven dish, £20, Habitat
6. A collection of anatomical charts arranged on and against the walls looks sophisticated in black frames.
Walls painted in 'Attic II' Absolute Matt Emulsion, £42 per 2.5l, Little Greene. Charts (from left): framed anatomical print, £600, Elemental; framed elementary physiology anatomical chart 'No.3 Brain', £495, Mustard Vintage; two 19th-century framed anatomical prints, £195 each, The Old Cinema; framed scheme of circulation chart, £1,200, Elemental; framed elementary physiology anatomical chart 'No.1 Skeleton', £495, Mustard Vintage.

'Hay Minimal' collection bed linen, £50, Nest. 'Ikat' stripe cushion, £40, Habitat. 'Era' cashmere throw, £699; 'Teva throw', £419, both Oyuna. 'Leo' rug, £600, Habitat
7. Enliven bare brick walls with a chalk paper chart that allows you to scribe thoughts and notes, as well as being an intriguing and decorative piece.
Human body chalk paper wall chart 1968, £150, Ars Vivendi Thonhauser at Pamono. Console, £1,450, Andrew Bewick Antiques. Brutalist ceramics, from £58 each, Jonathan Adler. Rug, find similar at Habitat

If you think strong, solid love is what other people have, this book could change everything. "It's Complicated" might be something you should see yourself reading soon.
When you think about your future, you can see yourself clearly.
You will have a great place to live, filled with all the things you love. You will work a job you enjoy, maybe travel a little, and spend time with family. One day, you will even retire somewhere warm.
Yep, when you think about the future, you can just see yourself.
Unfortunately, that's the problem. You can just see yourself.
You don't want that, though. You want love, someone to grow old with, marriage, a lifetime companion. And you can find the map to that journey by reading "It's Complicated (But It Doesn't Have to Be)" by Paul Carrick Brunson.
Throughout your life, you have had plenty of opportunity to date and find a mate. You've hooked up, dressed down, and met a lot of clowns, but you haven't found a keeper.
Author and matchmaker Paul Carrick Brunson doesn't mess around in this book. He tells readers, straight up, what they need to know to find love and keep it. He offers tips, reality checks and homework, but he's not above telling readers that there are times when he can't help — which is what makes this book refreshingly different: while so many how-to-date guides seem to put outward focus on prospective mates, Brunson advocates self-examination and introspection first.
If you think strong, solid love is what other people have, this book could change everything. "It's Complicated" might be something you should see yourself reading soon.
Terri Schlichenmeyer never goes anywhere without a book. She lives on a hill in Wisconsin with two dogs and 11,000 books.
