"Most people have a song they want to learn to dance to when they come to me," says Susie Ayers, who loves partners dancing and encourages people through her group and private lessons held around the island to get up and do it.
She also teaches engaged couples how to perform their special wedding dance and will travel to students' homes or use dance studios to accomplish that.
"I've also had people come to me because they were going to attend a wedding and wanted to do a good dance," says Ayers. "One woman came, was going to attend a family wedding and wanted to be able to follow a male lead."
Ayers recommends couples contact her at least a month prior to the wedding. She sees them for an hour and sends them off with a promise to return.
"The problem is always practice time," she says. "And even if, by the end of the first hour, they look good and feel confident, they still need to come back."
Dancing is fun and a good way to maintain some level of fitness, according to Ayer — and it makes you feel good, too.
"Dancing releases endorphins as a form of exercise, depending, of course, on how long and hard you dance — and that always improves your mood and increases happiness," she says. "I do notice the effect of endorphins as I think there is never a night I leave from dancing or even teaching dance, that I feel less happy then when I started.
"I also do enjoy teaching dance and share in the joy other people experience as they learn a new way to move, and to move together with a partner as well as to the music. For most people who have never danced before, it is like witnessing a child discover something new and exciting — like seeing his or her shadow for the first time.
"I've been to a couple of weddings and I'm beaming when I'm watching, like a proud mama."

ROME - One out of every eight people in the world is chronically undernourished, the United Nations' food agencies said on Tuesday, warning that progress to reduce hunger has slowed since 2007/08 when high food prices sparked riots in several poor countries.In their latest report on food insecurity, the UN agencies estimated that 868 million people were suffering hunger in 2010-2012, or about 12.5 percent of the world's population, down more sharply than previously estimated from about 1 billion, or 18.6 percent in 1990-92.The new figures are lower than the last estimates for recent years that pegged the number of hungry people at 925 million in 2010 and 1.02 billion in 2009."That is better news than we have had in the past, but it still means that one person in every eight goes hungry. That is unacceptable, especially when we live in a world of plenty," said Jose Graziano da Silva, director general of the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO).

Councillor wants Tubridy apology for Coleman comment
Late Late Show incident hasn't gone down well
Seamus Coleman
Ryan Tubridy has been asked by a Donegal county councillor to apologise for an on-air comment about Ireland soccer star Seamus Coleman.
Coleman recently returned to football following a career-threateneing injury.
A picture of Coleman's double leg break during Ireland's crunch World Cup Qualifer against Wales last March was shown on last Friday night's Late Late Show as part of a segment about a press photographers' awards show.
Commenting on the graphic image, Tubridy said: "Bend it like Beckham … thankfully Seamus is back in action playing two-and-a-half weeks ago for Everton".
Cllr Tom Conaghan said: "Maybe it was just off-the-cuff, but he could make an apology."

This documentary is about an underground movement of young people moving back to the land and growing their own food in response to corporate corruption in our food supply.
100 years ago, 1 in 3 people were farmers, today it is less that 1 in 60. Whenever you outsource any part of industry to large corporate interests you are going to sacrifice quality for efficiency and convenience. We have a large number problem with unemployment in my generation and more and more of us are seeing the connection between our health the quality of the food we eat.
Hawaiians, living on small remote islands, are the canaries in the coal mine when it comes to affects of pollution and overpopulation. Because of this young people from all walks of life are taking a stand and growing the changes they want to see in the world. As a filmmaker, there's an inspirational story I need to tell to get spread the message to other places in the US and around the world.

TOSCANA welcomes Salvatore Ferragamo, grandson of the iconic luxury fashion designer and proprietor of the family's wine estate, for the Il Borro Wine Dinner on Tuesday, October 3, 2017. Ferragamo and his wife Christine will be present to introduce his wines from the exceptional estate in Tuscany, Italy. The five-course menu by Executive Chef Hugo Vasquez will be matched with a variety of wines from Il Borro, consisting of Sangiovese, Chardonnay, Merlot, Cabernet and Syrah grapes. The wines are chosen to demonstrate the breadth and depth of the Il Borro portfolio and will offer something for everyone and every occasion.
The Ferragamo family began restoration of Il Borro shortly after acquiring the medieval Tuscan estate in 1993. Since then, Salvatore Ferragamo has restored Il Borro's historic detail and brought the estate back to life in a new era. In 1996, the vineyards were replanted by Salvatore and Ferruccio Ferragamo and today, a tour of the Il Borro Cellars is a journey to the heart of Tuscan wine-making tradition. Il Borro boasts one of the oldest cellars in Italy where the first ever Chianti wine was produced and the magic of winemaking continues with passion and commitment.

How do you know about all of this?
I'm a guy, just like you, just older and more experienced.
The reason I'm willing to talk about issues like masturbation started back in 1990 when I was asked to do a class on sexual issues at the church I was attending that would deal with the immoral ideas being taught in public schools. I realized that the material available wasn't good enough and ended up writing my own book. About eight years ago I put a lot of my writings on the Internet, including the book on sexual issues, and made it known that I would answer questions.
It started slowly, but the number of questions coming in has been rapidly increasing. Each time I get a question I don't know the answer to, I research it and write back. I believe every question honestly asked deserves a honest answer. I'm just crazy enough to be willing to answer even the embarrassing questions.
What I didn't realize at the beginning was how many of these questions would come from young men who don't have a strong father influence in their lives. Because of this, I try extra hard to answer questions a dad would usually address, so I end up discussing a lot of small practical matters that are easily overlooked.
The world is full of evil, but I'm hoping that in a small way I can encourage young men to be moral, good men, and lean upon God's teachings in their lives. So it seems I've come into a role of being uncle or dad to a lot of young men around the world. I get a lot of mail about personal issues which I try to help young me sort through. For some I'll chat or talk with them on the phone or through Skype. It takes a good bit of time, but I think every person is worth helping.

Tapinella atrotomentosa which is also known as the velvet roll-rim is a robust saprobic fungus I had the privilege of meeting last weekend. I was at my in-laws annual family gathering located on land they own in Warsaw NY. It's always a pleasure to catch up, laugh, eat, and sip on some craft brew with them, but if you know me by now, you can understand how loud the forest behind the central cabin area was calling my name.
Meandering through the woods, only hearing but a faint jabber of a large Scottish and Irish family amped up on some liquid courage, I began to find one cool species after another. It had just rained heavily on that Thursday, like, torrential downpour status, so the forest floor was teaming with life. Even though the brownish cap of T. atrotomentosa blends in with the fallen pine needles and leaves surrounding its base, this mushroom sticks out like a sore thumb.
To the untrained eye, this mushroom may seem a bit mundane, but for the fungal hobbyist, this species is anything but. It has a walnut colored cap covered by fine smooth hairs, hence its common name. Its gills are a light, creamy shade of yellow that run down the stipe a bit, a term in mycology coined decurrent gills. Its stipe has a dark hue of brown similar to the cap due to those same velvety hairs being attached. In Latin atrotomentosus aptly means "black-haired."
This species grows on dead conifers, so it makes sense that I found several groupings of hungry T. atrotomentosa covering the base of dead white pines. When I pulled one of these mushrooms out of the ground, I was shocked at how sturdy the species was. Most gilled mushrooms I encounter are quite fragile, unlike this specimen that was extremely dense. Another thing I found interesting was that it was largely untouched by feeding insects and slugs. Almost every other species I encountered in the woods at Warsaw were completely dismantled by some type of herbivore. After a bit of research in my tent, I began to unfold the patterns I saw.
As it turns out, this mushroom is from the order Boletales, which explain its structural integrity. Boletes are usually denser, more sturdier mushrooms than gilled mushrooms. Once again, the ancestors of this Bolete had a genetic mutation that transcribed the codons for its more ancient gilled morphology. I talk about this in a previous post with another gilled bolete. Gills are fantastic appendages for spore release, so a species that switches form a pore to a gilled morphology isn't negatively affected, and the new set of genes is conserved in the gene pool.
This fascinating gilled bolete is hiding something else too, volatile compounds that deter herbivory. Like I said earlier, most fruiting bodies in this mixed habitat were barely standing up, because of the intense feeding of slugs and snails. The reason why this species was largely untouched is that upon any damage, the fungus converts leucomentins, chemicals within its tissue, into several other compounds including the feeding deterrent osmundalactone. Many fungi, including truffle-forming ones and even some boletes depend on animals to eat their fruiting bodies to disperse their spores. Clearly though, this species solely relies on wind dispersal to send its offspring to the stumps of dead conifers.
Once placed in the genus Paxillus, T. atrotomentosa and its closely related cousin T. panuoides were moved to the genus Tapinella. Mycologists first began to question this mushroom as a Paxillus species because they realized that most if not all Paxillus species form mycorrhizal mutualisms with trees. Their different ecology along with some genetic analyses confirmed its placement to the genus Tapinella.
Even when you're celebrating with friends and family, if there are woods nearby, don't be afraid to take a gander. If anything, you can take a specimen back, and it will become a bit of a conversation starter. At first, I thought I brought back a true gilled mushroom from the order Agaricales. Surprisingly, I found another bolete that had reverted back to its more ancestral gilled condition. I also soon uncovered the reason why this fungus remained intact in the wake of a million hungry slugs. I am constantly being taught by nature, and I hope I can continue translating that information to you. It takes a lot of discipline to be a student of the wilderness, you just have to remember to listen, for the forest floor is calling your name.

A few weeks ago, my friend Hannah called me and told me she wanted to shave her head. She asked me if I'd come over and shoot it for her. I was super stoked!
She told me she was sick of her hair, and needed a change.
Hannah does the most with her hair of anyone I know, so when she said she wanted to be bald for a minute, I wasn't the least bit surprised.
She told me she'd had the idea, thought about it for a few weeks, then bought clippers so she could pull the trigger. I wish I had that much courage to make such a drastic change! My hair is a constant source of anxiety for me, so outside of coloring it, and having it relayered a few times a year, I'm usually pretty tame with things. Hannah on the other hand, is not the least bit afraid to take risks with her look, and they always pay off.
I thought about doing a side buzz when I was over at her house, but decided against it at the last minute. I'm not really one to rock any sort of short hair (hello: my face is a perfect circle!) and I knew that once I shaved it, I'd be devastated.
Why is it that some of us are plagued with indecision? It's not like our hair isn't going to grow back, right?
There's a big part of me that wants to grow the balls to Bowie and make some ch-ch-ch-ch-changes, but there's another part of me that's like "nothing's wrong now, if it ain't broke, why fix it?" it's hard vacillating between the two sometimes.
In any case, may you be more like Hannah in your life, readers! I hope your risk taking pays off in a big way!
Happy shaving~!

Many of us have tried to sit behind our desk at work dreaming of far horizons with sandy beaches, snow covered mountains or great wide oceans. The daily grind with bills, domestic tasks and obligations everywhere can sometimes seem unmanageable, and oftentimes we forget the most important and basic things in life in our endless journey towards the next promotion, the bigger company car or the next extension to the house.
Been there, done that!
Like thousands of other mature, responsible grown-ups we did everything that "one" is supposed to do in order to make ends meet. And little by little our everyday life started to make less sense.

Biodiversity Quotes (11 quotes)
Biodiversity is our most valuable but least appreciated resource.
I always dreamed that man was a stranger on this planet.
More than 90 percent of the forests of western Ecuador have been destroyed during the past four decades.The loss is estimated to have extinguished or doomed over half of the species of the areas plants and animals. Many other biologically diverse areas of the world are under similar assault.
Natural species are the library from which genetic engineers can work. Genetic engineers dont make new genes, they rearrange existing ones.
People still do not understand that a live fish is more valuable than a dead one, and that destructive fishing techniques are taking a wrecking ball to biodiversity.
Relatively few benefits have flowed to the people who live closest to the more than 3,000 protected areas that have been established in tropical countries during the past 50 years. For this reason, the preservation of biodiversity is often thought of as something that poor people are asked to do to fulfill the wishes of rich people living in comfort thousands of miles away.
Scientists themselves readily admit that they do not fully understand the consequences of our many-faceted assault upon the interwoven fabric of atmosphere, water, land and life in all its biological diversity. But things could also turn out to be worse than the current scientific best guess. In military affairs, policy has long been based on the dictum that we should be prepared for the worst case. Why should it be so different when the security is that of the planet and our long-term future?
The coastal zone may be the single most important portion of our planet. The loss of its biodiversity may have repercussions far beyond our worst fears.
The cutting of primeval forest and other disasters, fueled by the demands of growing human populations, are the overriding threat to biological diversity everywhere. (1992)
The gold rush in Madre de Dios, Peru, exceeds the combined effects of all other causes of forest loss in the region, including from logging, ranching and agriculture. This is really important because were talking about a global biodiversity hotspot. The regions incredible flora and fauna is being lost to gold fever.
The maintenance of biological diversity requires special measures that extend far beyond the establishment of nature reserves. Several reasons for this stand out. Existing reserves have been selected according to a number of criteria, including the desire to protect nature, scenery, and watersheds, and to promote cultural values and recreational opportunities. The actual requirements of individual species, populations, and communities have seldom been known, nor has the available information always been employed in site selection and planning for nature reserves. The use of lands surrounding nature reserves has typically been inimical to conservation, since it has usually involved heavy use of pesticides, industrial development, and the presence of human settlements in which fire, hunting, and firewood gathering feature as elements of the local economy.

|Beausoleil; Denied
As I predicted, Governor Jerry Brown's decision to deny Leslie Van Houten parole, after it was recommended by the parole board, did not bode well for fellow inmate and fellow Manson Family perp Bobby Beausoleil.
Bobby, now 68, came up for parole on Friday, October 14 and the board decided that the Family member formerly known as "Cupid" had not yet paid his debt to society for the murder of musician Gary Hinman on July 27, 1969 - - a week before the infamous Tate-LaBianca homicides.
Given that Beausoleil was initially given the death penalty, which was commuted to a life sentence (as were the death penalty sentences of the other Manson family killers), I can't be too upset about him not getting parole. Last I checked, Gary Hinman, an innocent victim, will never get parole.
Beausoleil claimed to have been a musician and kinda-sorta actor before fucking all that up by joining Charles Manson's merry band of craziness. If you're into that sort of thing, he has written and recorded music while behind bars. It was reported that he was denied parole, in part, because he has been selling his music without permission of the California authorities. He had permission from Oregon authorities, where he had been serving his sentence until last year. (He had requested and was granted a move to Oregon in 1994 after he married a clearly unhinged Oregon woman, whom he went on to have four children with. He was transferred back to California after his wife died and he had an infraction - - what a surprise - - in Oregon. ) He also sold suggestive drawings of children to pedophiles back in the 1980s - - nice guy. I'm guessing he didn't exactly have permission for that.
Californians can breathe easier knowing that the man who made the statement "You'd better hope I never get out!" will not be eligible for parole again for another three years. Here's hoping that parole attempt number 19 will be equally unsuccessful.
|Watson: He's soooo sowwwwwwy
In my search on upcoming information on Tex Watson, whose next parole hearing is scheduled for end of this month, I found an article from The Boston Tribune that claims that Manson's self-professed right hand man will be granted parole at this hearing due to his "clear and sustained rehabilitation" and a recently diagnosed health issue.
First, I can tell you his health issue. He's an asshole. And worse, a murdering asshole. Second, are they serious? Watson has had a series of infractions over the years of his lengthy stay as a guest of the State of California. Let's not forget his prison scam, where he was claiming to be a born again Christian, and minister of his ministry, which allowed his then-wife to collect monies received for said ministry in order to support herself and the four children California allowed him to spawn (yes, after he personally butchered a pregnant woman.) Not only did he have that going on but he also had fellow inmate and fellow Mansonite Bruce Davis "working" alongside him in the prison ministry - - an absolute no no. Perhaps the worst offense are the books Watson has written while in prison, "literary" attempts to convince the public of his Christianity and how it was all Manson's fault. Sure. He was just some misguided kid who thought butchering absolute strangers for shits and giggles made perfect sense. (And if he did, he was a moron and I still don't want him in my neighborhood.)
So. I'm not exactly sure how The Boston Tribune seems in the know about Watson's impending release but I'm with Debra Tate on this one. Her older sister Sharon, over eight months pregnant with a baby boy at the time, was killed at Watson's hands. He was personally involved in the murders of at least nine people that we know of, including Sharon's unborn baby. I'm fairly certain that I don't want to run into him at Ralph's picking up groceries so I did my part and signed Debra's petition requesting denial of Watson's parole. Please do the same.
Even if you buy that he's been rehabilitated - which is a questionable prospect at best; even if you buy that he's ill and rapidly declining - - Susan Atkins was terminally ill, given very few months to live and was rightly denied, dying in prison where all Manson Family members should die; I ask that you remember this. He's been incarcerated since 1971. That's a total of 45 years. Sure, that's a lot. But if you divide that by the nine human beings he slaughtered, that's only FIVE YEARS PER VICTIM. How is five years, for shooting, bludgeoning, hanging and viciously stabbing a living and breathing person enough time? It's not in my world and it shouldn't be in any sane person's. Furthermore, he's had 47 years to live that he denied all of his victims. One did not even have the opportunity to take his first breath.
Debra Tate's petition can be found here.

How to Win in your Final Year in Architecture
Here are my thoughts on the work and play ethics of a final year architecture student.
First, let us get across some context. I have just completed my final year in Architecture. While most people take a year out (maybe two) before going on to complete their postgraduate studies, I decided to take 6 years in between. I did not choose to do this, but I have begun to appreciate having to go through 'doing time' in practice. I learned so much at work on how to actually 'do work' that it set a basis of how I approached my final 2 years of study.
Always think about the end goal.
Make sure it is not all in your head because that makes you look foolish.
For whatever project you take on, at the end of the day, how you submit and present it is the most important thing. More important that your self-satisfying crave for knowledge.
Make sure you see the finish line. Go into detail and visualise it. Sketch it if you have to. Then leave it all to reverse engineering. For example, if you decided to embark on a regeneration project that would address the future needs of a super-gentrified community, heck you better jump the research bit for a second and make sure this project would result in an architectural intervention in the first place! Then decide on how it would be presented in the end. Would a 5m hand-drawn section suffice? Or maybe video. Perhaps if the final-crit was just 5 minutes, there would be no point in drawing the floor plans at all. I thought about this all the time whenever we got a new brief. It helped me streamline my workload to a fraction of the time with production work, so I would be able to spend less time slaving in the studio and more time at the pub chatting with other people on what they thought about my concept.
Be very comfortable and accepting towards changes
It happens all the time, you might as well embrace it.
Record them all and package them as a part of your process. Iterations are a norm in all practices and it should be no different with university work. I had to learn this the hard way. When I was working in practice, we juggled changes every single day on our projects. It was basically the main task of being an Architectural Designer. Most of the time they occured as a result of factors beyond our scope as the architects on the job. Which got me thinking, if it took 2-3 years to build something, it makes perfect sense to see design changes made along the way. Same thing with your final year project. The architectural practice is a series of push and pull moves among a select group of people trying to achieve the same goal. If you are always geared to react to things and come up with alternatives quickly, you will be seen as a capable designer among others. I guarantee it. So many architects out there are living proof!
Speed is the Key
Execution without speed means nothing nowadays.
And for this reason, I urge you to rethink the quality in which you pass time. I used to believe in the work of perfection and timeless pieces and how you cannot rush awesomeness. But those concepts are now democratized. You need to do more, try more, learn more all in half the expected time. In contradiction, you need to rest more and play more as well. This is a self driven notion to win. For example, I always try to sleep, work-out and rush for a deadline all within a 6 hour schedule. It was a struggle to do this at first, but it is very possible. Plus, I just think taking an entire academic year to complete one project is absurd. I spent most of my undergrad years slaving for my projects and at the end of the day what mattered most in my portfolio was everything else I did outside of school. It is sad to admit this, but it is the truth. Yes, your final year project will probably be the most important piece of work you will do up to date, but it will not be your last. At the end of the year, you should aim to complete your final year project and have one or two other completed/on-going side projects. Do freelance work for small firms in your area, or join design competitions for students. It is important to keep it casual and snug under the design umbrella as this directly affects what you will be able to show in your portfolio.
Reach out, share and don't give AF
If you are going to the next society social, you might as well tweet about it.
The average architect only showcases 2% of all the work done in his lifetime. With social media at play, that percentage is even smaller. The rest remains stored in an external HDD like a metastable allotrope of Carbon kilometres below the earth's crust. OK I lied, that's not a real fact. But it I'm sure for a second there you thought it were true. To a certain extent, it does make a whole lot of sense. As designers, architecture students are pretty timid (in comparison to interior architects and motion designers). Getting noticed and building a community takes time getting used to. Best to start now while you are in your final year! I spent a year doing this, and honestly this is tough work. It is important to make your presence known. You should open an Instagram account and start documenting your process. Write a blog, submit your sketches and make them into T-shirts, sell your studio trip photographs on GettyImages or tell you what ... give away your 3D modelling assets online. With social media nowadays, if you do not have a presence you simply do not exist. With most HR departments skimming through Linkedin and Facebook spheres as they hire, it is crucial that you leverage yourself as an online brand to suit a modern day context.
In the studio, we have a saying that 'Design is a behaviour and not a body of knowledge'. Things could not have been put in the better way. I think a 'modern' day designer is an abomination persona between an artistic perfectionist and a business mogul trying to monetise every second of his/her life. And for a really long time it was either or. I always viewed architecture to be bigger than me (or anyone of us). I probably do not understand it fully yet, so I'm just going to wait it out. In the meantime, we can always assess our architect-ness ** in the context of it all. In the context of thousands of architecture students graduating annually, what is the worth of your awesome project? More importantly, what is the worth of any awesome project?
Tell me ... what is your work and play ethics like?
** yeah I coined that. Mic-drop

They say looks can be deceiving, and we totally agree. How many times have we heard about that oh-so-religious girl who's actually a freak in bed? Or that thin nerdy dude who's actually a karate expert? Too. Many. Times.
The same can be said for the gadget that we're about to show you. Geeks, take a gander at the gorgeous creation that is the new ASUS Zenbook UX303LN:
It sure looks slim and elegant as heck, like a gal who exudes the hindi-makabasag-pinggan vibe. But inside is actually a beast waiting to be unleashed onto your mobile computing chores.
But first, another look. Ang ganda lang eh!
Video via ASUS
We didn't expect anything less in the looks department, especially since the Zenbook UX303LN comes from the same laptop line that produced the handsome glass-clad UX302LA (check out our review of the sexy mother here). With a sleek metallic frame measuring just 20mm thick and a lid that shines like glossy kitchenware, this laptop will gather envious stares. Yep, even if you're in a sosyal coffee place somewhere.
But inside is where it's really at.
The UX303LN boasts the latest Intel Core i5 or i7 (depending on model) processor that's paired with at least 4GB of RAM. That should provide the needed punch for your multi-tasking and hardcore software needs. It also comes with a solid-state drive which is much faster than the conventional hard drive found in most laptops and PCs.
The result? An added speed boost that's welcome anytime, any day!
Then there's the NVIDIA GeForce GT840M video card, which transforms the device from a hardworking pogi machine to one that can even do real gaming. With this added hardware feature, you can use the UX303LN to play most mainstream games at nice frame rates and visual settings. Yowzah!
Speaking of visuals, there's also the 13.3-inch touchscreen that enables Full-HD viewing of your games, videos, and memes. And since graphics is just half of the equation, this bad boy comes as the full package, boasting larger than usual 1.5-watt speakers with ASUS' own SonicMaster audio tech for clearer, better, louder sounds.

I've been home from Denmark for exactly two months as I begin to write this, and the weather outside (chilly, but gloriously sunny) reminds me of Sundays in Aarhus as I journeyed to church (usually with Vertical Church Band playing, so I'm listening to their album now too, just for the nostalgia).
Anyway, hi there! I'm Amy, I'm twenty years old, and I'm a second-year English student at QUB. Last year I had the opportunity to pack up my stuff, move out of my little first-year student house in Belfast, and send myself and my belongings 600 miles away to Denmark, where I would be studying for a little while at Aarhus University.
If I'm completely honest I thought going away would be easy. As a relatively independent, generally quite confident, people person I thought I would settle into a new way of life straight away. Much to my dismay, this wasn't really the case. After the initial exploring was done and 'real life' began again, independence seemed to feel a bit more like solitary confinement, and after a few mishaps, the confidence I had had at the beginning was replaced with irrational anxious thoughts about my own inabilities and weaknesses. Quite frankly, this sucked. I felt like I had failed (at what I don't really know), my pride was damaged at the thought of needing to admit that I was lonely and ask for help, and I told myself that I should just suck it up and deal with it; after all, it was my choice to go.
Whilst this didn't exactly feel like a high point of my life at the time, as I look back in hindsight, it was clearly one of the most spiritually fruitful. With no arms to run into physically, and technological communication not quite cutting it, I spent lengthy early morning hours in prayer or studying passages of the Bible. This time for me was invaluable. Often, on days where I awoke feeling burdened and terrified at the prospect of the day ahead, these feelings were quickly alleviated and replaced with the realisation that although yes, I am weak and I can't do much, Jesus is not and He can and has! All the thoughts of my own inadequacies were overwhelmed by the renewed promise that I didn't need to be good enough, nor could I try to be of my own accord, because Jesus already is good enough and that in itself rendered me (and continues to render me) free from God's condemnation and in turn also my own.
After a brief trip home in October to reenergise, Danish life seemed much more manageable. I went back determined to preach the truth of the gospel to myself instead of believing the lies my own brain had convinced were fact. As my best friend was once reminded, and has since passed on to me, 'It's not about what you feel, it's about what you know.'. I knew that God was faithful, I had witnessed that He provided, and I knew I was never really as alone as I felt. With this is mind, the next two and a bit months felt almost entirely different to the two that had gone before.
A wonderful Danish friend had long ago introduced me to a church that offered an English translation of their services, but despite having good intentions, I hadn't yet made it to a service by myself. Only when I began to attend and truly felt the love of Christian brothers and sisters was I reminded of just how important being committed to church is, and I really regret not having realised this sooner. Attending Bykirke was so good for my soul. Not only was I taught and instructed, but I was also welcomed and loved (despite most Danes not understanding my accent and referring to me as 'Emy'), and also enabled to wholeheartedly worship and partake in communion alongside other believers. On almost all of the Sundays I made it to church, a verse or a song I had been focused on during the week somehow 'coincidently' made its way into the service. It reminded me that we are not called to do Christianity alone, we're called into community not only with Christ, but also with each other. My desire for independence at the beginning of my trip had not only led me into loneliness, but it had also drawn me away from this gospel truth. I cannot be an island, and thank goodness I no longer want to be!
Denmark is the most incredible country, and I am so privileged that I had the opportunity to temporarily make it my home. I understand now that although at times it was painful, I needed to be removed from the life I was comfortable in to acknowledge some real truths about myself and some even bigger truths about God and His gospel. I made some great friends, persevered through multiple setbacks (these are stories better told in person), and even after acknowledging how difficult it was, I would most definitely try to become a Dane all over again (provided that I could bring a friend). In an overly dramatic, very 'me' sort of way, and to exploit a perfectly good James Joyce quote, 'When I die, Denmark will be written on my heart'.
Much as I have days where all I want in the world is some good Danish coffee and a trip to ARoS, NI life is pretty sweet too. At times I still believe my own lies quicker than I do what's true, but for the most part, I can recognise this and turn it on its head. I'm treasuring time spent with my church family, and appreciating more than ever the beautiful people in my life. Whilst it's difficult not to slip back into old habits, God, as ever, comes alongside me in my struggle and with His help I keep pushing on in life and into Him.
If you need some encouragement today have a read of Psalm 139. One of my most notable Danish memories is a Sunday afternoon I spent by the harbour (after trying not to cry once I realised I was on the right bus going the wrong direction, missing church in the process) reading this Psalm over and over and over again, reminding myself of God's intimate knowledge of who I am and his love for me even still!
Thank you for reading, I hope you have a wonderful day!
Amy x

The Reality Check: Mainstream Black Music & American Youth
The Reality Check: Mainstream Black music and American Youth
by: Chelsea Coffey
--At the expense of sounding off like a momma, I'd like to tackle a topic that is burning through my mind. A friend of mine tweeted a Shai song the other day, and when I finally got around to looking at it, I found myself watching another one of their videos -Baby I'm Yours:
The truth is, I kind of melted as I watched the video. The song's a little corny, but the interaction between the singers and their leading ladies was actually something to be desired. The video is about 20 years old, and I couldn't help but feel disheartened seeing it. For starters the guys look like regular people you see in real life, no glitz or glam, and the same can be said about the women. It was almost a novelty to see a video where the women were not there to simply serve as a side-chick dressed like a stripper. To really put things in perspective, the four leading ladies weren't wearing weaves --none of them. They actually had roles in the video, and most importantly the men showed them respect.
Trust me, I get it. Each generation has a certain sense of nostalgia for the music they grew up liste ning to, but in the case of the transition we've seen over the last 20 years in R&B, we've witnessed more than a change in audio format and dress. The "Black Music" genre has seen a considerable shift in everything from the messages, to the videos, to the attitude towards women.
In an effort to evaluate my emotions against logic, I sincerely tried to think of one recent popular video or song from the R&B or Rap music genres that didn't require some degree of filtering. The reality is that it seems that the majority of mainstream R&B singers and rappers lack the sense of accountability that was displayed by previous generations. Point blank.
Maybe it's a moral issue on the part of artists, maybe it's an ethical issue on the part of record labels, maybe it stems from the "disappearing Black family"...whatever the case may be, the impact hurts our future generation's perception of "Black Music", especially as it relates to women and how they should be treated. My sensitivity to this issue isn't so much that women are spoken of in a derogatory way, because the truth is some women are bitches or sluts or whatever -sorry- shoulder shrug.
What bothers me is that it seems to penetrate all aspects of Black Music played by radio stations, at clubs, on commercials, etc. Whether it is a female rapper bashing other women and declaring her sexual prowess in a sleazy way, men talking about how many women he's going to run through, drug use, alcohol abuse; the list goes on. We are dealing with a content issue -both audibly and visually. Proverbs 12:11 states: And he that followeth after vain pursuits is devoid of understanding. Black Americans have so many reasons to be proud of where we've come from as a people and where we are going. It is a shame that negative stereotypes seem to monopolize our reputation. Our popular music plays a strong role in why that is the case.
Exhibit A: Got Money by Lil Wayne featuring T-Paine. *Disclaimer: I'm guilty of doing a shoulder bounce every time the beat drops...Catchy lil mother sucker.
Hook:Got money (yeah) And you know it Take it out your pocket and show it (then) Throw it This a way Thata way This a way Thata way
Goes on:Bitch ain't shit but a hoe and a trick But you no one ain't trickin? if you got it You know we ain't f**king if you not thick And I cool your ass down if you think you're hot shit So Rolex watch this I do it 4 5 6 my click Clack goes the black hoe pimp And just like it I blow that shit Cause bitch I'm the bomb like tick tick
Or a heavier throwback example from 1986: Boyz-n-the-Hood by Easy E
Bored as f*** and i wanna get ill So I went to a place where my homeboyz chill Niggaz out there makin' that dolla' I pulled up in my '64 impala They greet me wit a 40 and I start drinkin' And from tha 8-ball my breath start stinkin' Enough tah get my girl tah rock that body Before I left i hit tha bacardi I went to her house tah get her out of the pad Dumb hoe said something that made me mad She said something that I couldn't believe So I grabbed tha stupid bitch by her nappy-ass weave She started talkin' shit what did ya know Reached back like a pimp slapped tha hoe Her father jumped up and he started tah shout So I bombed on pops knocked his old ass out
This song is over 30 years old, so it is not that we're just now seeing these types of lyrics in music, it about the reach and frequency. The only positive thing I can find to say about the Eazy E song is that it's beautiful the girl had a father in the home to try to defend her...
Look. It is proven that kids, regardless of race and socioeconomic status, imitate popular music --especially, when it comes to rap. All one has to do is look around and listen to the conversations of kids between the ages of eight and sixteen. Perhaps a possible argument would be, "Well, if it bothers you that much don't listen to the radio," and I don't. The reason why all of this is relevant is because it affects our children who are internalizing these messages. More importantly, it foreshadows a significant degree of influence on the perception of how our kids will define relationships, male/female gender roles, how girls and boys will view themselves, as well as, what they feel they should emulate as they grow up (Don't even get me started on VH1's reality shows...).
To be clear, this is a problem that extends beyond the Black community. It affects our future society as a whole. Some would argue that rap is the number one music genre for today's youth, and anyone who would suggest that those messages aren't reaching American youth is sorely mistaken.
According to the NY Times Blog, Well:
Teenagers listen to an average of nearly 2.5 hours of music per day. Guess what they're hearing about?
One in three popular songs contains explicit references to drug or alcohol use, according to a new report in The Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine. That means kids are receiving about 35 references to substance abuse for every hour of music they listen to, the authors determined.
While songs about drugs and excess are nothing new, the issue is getting more attention because so many children now have regular access to music out of the earshot of parents. Nearly 9 out of 10 adolescents and teens have an MP3 player or a compact disc player in their bedrooms.
To present a concrete theory short of a complete overhaul in several areas to combat this issue escapes me. I have discussed this with family, friends, professors, community activists, and any solution seems to be hindered by two problems: parenting (or the lack thereof) and the high level of exposure to the lyrical content itself.
For the record, there are plenty of artists who convey real life issues in their music, and I applaud them. However more often than not, their tracks aren't being played on the radio or at school dances. It is my hope that conscious artists like Lupe Fiasco and The Foreign Exchange will get more play time on the radio one day and more visibility in general...In the meantime, I'll be praying for our kids, our society and the artists.
Standing and believing -Chelsea

ll archives: How Investing in Employees Can Help Your Business Grow
We know how it goes when you first start your business--you wear all of the hats. And that's okay because it's your business, it's your baby, and no one will ever love your baby as much as you do, am I right, ladies? When you're a one-woman shop, you are the CEO, CFO, Director of Sales and Marketing, and Board of Directors—at least initially. After all, when you're first starting out, your goal is to run a lean and mean operation. While you would love to hire someone to run your social media accounts so that you can focus on doing your actual job, it simply may not make financial sense at first.
However, since you're such a badass and your business is something that your customers love, eventually you reach the point where your business' growth (or maybe your own personal sanity) may force you to seriously consider hiring outside help. As "CFO," you probably know how pricey an employee can be. According to Entrepreneur, the cost of recruiting, hiring, and training an employee is four grand. Four. And that doesn't even include their salary!
Okay, so we've established that adding an employee to your team can be 'spensive, however, it can also be invaluable. When you add staff to take care of the necessary things that you are not passionate about or simply don't have time for, you give yourself the time and energy to focus on the things that will take your business to the next level.
I read a quote from Seth Godin recently and it pretty much drives home the point for why an investment in employees can be the best thing for your business: "when you get rid of every job you do that could be done by someone else, something needs to fill your time. And what you discover is that you're imagining growth, building partnerships, rethinking the enterprise."
As an entrepreneur, you are innovative, bold, you take risks, and you believe that your product or service is valuable enough that it will benefit others—otherwise you wouldn't pour your blood, sweat, and tears into it, right? So yes, there is a monetary investment associated with hiring staff to support you in other areas of your business—especially the areas that are not your strengths—but when you do, other areas of your business can prosper because you suddenly have more time to focus on them. The great common denominator for all mankind is time. We all only get 24 hours per day. That's it. If you spent fewer of those hours doing things you either aren't good at or just prefer not to do, imagine the things you could accomplish with your business! A stronger brand, partnerships with other businesses and organizations, deeper relationships with your customers, a stronger social media following, a diversified product line...ah, the possibilities!
If your goal is to take your business to the next level, don't count out investing in (valuable) employee(s). When you consider the ways that more time and energy can open the door to creativity and ingenuity, it is well worth the investment.

friday faves : basic edition
It (sort of) feels like fall, y'all! And what does that mean? It means we will now become #basicAF. Or at least I will. And I don't even care. I love to be basic. In fact, I say, let's embrace our basic-ness, beginning with #fridayfaves...
1. The PSL (aka pumpkin spice latte, aka Sherri will now go to Starbucks twice a day and feel no shame) Y'all. Is there really anything that heralds fall more than the PSL?
I think not.
2. A New Day clothing line at Target. (aka Sherri's black hole of spending, where we buy ALL THE THINGS we do not need.) We probably also get PSL's while we're there, because Target's that have Starbucks are LIFE.
Shop my favorite pieces here >>
3. Listening to the Popcast (aka the reason Sherri looks like a psycho during carpool as she laughs creepily to herself) : Y'all. The hosts, Knox and Jamie, discuss things like pop culture, the urban dictionary, taylor swift, which Chris wins America (Pratt), and more goodness like that. They are a delight and should probably be on friendly stalker alert, should they ever visit ATL.
4. NYFW (aka New York Fashion Week/ all the bloggers you know blowing up your insta feed) : So, I considered going to fashion week this year. For a hot minute. But then I realized that a) I would have to wear real people clothes. And then B) I wouldn't get to watch the shows from the comfort of my bed.
(p.s. join me in sweatpants and watch the shows live here)
5. This denim jacket. (aka I own approximately 137 denim jackets, but hey! Might as well snag one more.)
Happy weekend friends! For those of y'all in the path of Irma, STAY SAFE. You're in my prayers.
Until next time,

Just finishing reading the Tammy Wynette biography by Jimmy McDonough. The woman had a tremendously successful career, paired up with a very tragic life. While I found myself feeling sad for her, in that she obviously suffered a lot through the years, the thing that really hit me was her dedication to the song. She obviously had an extraordinary voice, that's plain to see. But her taste in country music was also pretty spot on. She could take these now-classic songs and make them live and breathe.
Every time I get sort of down on how modern country music has become throwaway and cookie-cutter, the product of focus groups and songwriting committees, I just have to listen to someone like her. She lived the songs, and made them her own. The woman, despite being a scattered and broken soul, is an inspiration. Or maybe that's why she is such an inspiration. She could sing through it all. Thanks Tammy!

James H (es) wrote: This Polish spaghetti western is an oddball movie. It does manage to capture the look and feel of these films, but not the heart and soul. It's cold and brutal. The acting is good though, particularly Katarzyna Figura.
Paolo C (ca) wrote: Bello, Bello...Bello, bello, bello. Impossibile non finire questo film canticchiando e avendo creato uno spazio nel cuore per le 4 protagoniste. Se non vi spaventa una storia delicata, guardatelo. (4,5/5)

Stephen C (ru) wrote: Clearly inspired by early Corenburg and Peter Jackson films, the movie is surreal, colourful, cheesey and weird. It's bad, but in the so bad it's good way. Pretty sickening too.
Percy T (kr) wrote: I think this film is about as good a case as you'll find if you want to argue why we shouldn't have the death penalty.

Philip Z (ca) wrote: I had more fun than I was expecting. This film received a total trashing by critics and audiences and while I can't say that I'm baffled by that, I can say that we might be looking at two different films. For a start, I've never seen the 1980 Jamie Lee Curtis original, so maybe that's why my opinion differs. Who knows maybe my opinion of this remake will lessen once I've seen that film, but for now, I'd say if you like thrillers and if you like Brittany Snow, you could do a lot worse than check out this movie.
Zack B (es) wrote: A bizarre but fascinating blend of science-fiction, film noir, and Godard. Raoul Coutard's black-and-white cinematography is incredible, and Anna Karina, as always, is absolutely riveting.

Patrick D (gb) wrote: Great acting & direction, but two hours of self-pitying self-destructive diatribe is more than I can stomach. I felt no empathy whatsoever for anyone in this movie.
Irish E (ag) wrote: Ball of Fire is a charming little film. It's well written and the cast is marvelous. There isn't one slow or dull spot in the whole film.
Kyle C (ag) wrote: I don't understand why the ratings are so low. I and my friend thought it was an awesome movie, and it really touched me.
