Transforming agents into ISOs
When a new sales professional steps into the payments industry, it often results in a long-standing career. It is an industry where there is truly unlimited earning potential and these individuals must also invest substantial amounts of time learning about payment technologies, interchange fees and merchant business practices. Moreover, with electronic payments now touching virtually every business vertical and region within the world, it is one of the most fascinating and specialized sales careers an ambitious person could choose to pursue.
Many payments sales representatives enter the industry at the agent level, representing a particular independent sales organization (ISO). Over the years, these agents continue to evolve, often finding a knack within certain business verticals or an integrated technology. Some will gravitate to the equipment side of the industry and/or become experts in value added services.
Some agents expand their office into something larger, taking on sub-agents they can mentor and nurture. Others will even take on the challenge of becoming a registered ISO.
"The industry is full of sales agents, but so many of them don't have the knowledge needed to build their practice into a full-fledged ISO entity," stated Emily Karawadra, President of Impact PaySystem, "Seeing this over the years, we decided to create a program that would cultivate well-rounded ISOs within the industry that can successfully attract and nurture new agents."
The beginning of a legacy
Impact PaySystem began their "Agent-to-ISO" program in 2015. According to Karawadra, they saw a knowledge gap in agent offices that wanted to transition to the next level in their business. They weren't sure what steps to take or how to go about scaling into a registered ISO entity.
"We knew the pains of running an ISO firsthand, so it made sense to construct a program that would help our agents avoid the pitfalls and needless challenges," Karawadra reflected.
The Impact PaySystem team put together a system for setting up an ISO. From residual reporting, to agent agreements, to customer service and business tools, they designed a program that would aide agent offices in making a smooth ISO transition.
Karawadra says their best candidates are agents with over 250 merchants. "Once an agent office gets to this size, they generally begin thinking about a different residual split, and taking on the responsibility of becoming an ISO," she said.
Unfortunately, agents often don't realize that a higher split also brings more demands and responsibility with it. The Impact team learned that these agents often didn't consider how much time and expense would go into being a registered ISO. For example, registration fees with the card associations can add up each year, along with the cost of running an independent office.
Other considerations an ISO must plan for include the costs associated with hiring and maintaining staff to support merchants, perform data entry and run online application programs. In addition, an ISO must have a good bookkeeper that understands the residual commission model, determine how to deploy equipment and develop an ongoing agent training program.
"These are the areas we saw our offices struggling with during their transition and it's what prompted us to put a plan in place to assist them in their transition," continued Karawadra.
Winning formula for ISO success
To take part in the Impact PaySystem Agent-to-ISO program an agent must first apply, and upon approval, the planning starts.
Impact's ISOs receive the benefit of a special pricing model negotiated with each of Impact's processing partners. During this period of implementation, the Impact team also helps the agent decide if they want to register with more than one processor. They review the pros and cons of each processor as it may pertain to the type of business the agent writes. For example, if an agent boards primarily restaurants, the ISO boarding team would suggest a processor that has the integrations needed to support new business in this merchant category.
Once the processing relationships are determined, the registration process begins, but there is no negotiating on pricing, etc. since it has already been done up front.
Next, an agent's present way of doing business is reviewed to identify where new responsibilities may lie within their organization. The agents are also assisted in obtaining the right employees with the proper experience. This is offered through a strategic partnership with Pride Staffing out of Memphis, TN, who is set up to find talent anywhere. They specialize in the payments niche and will assist in finding sales agents and office employees specializing in all aspects of the industry.
Once the registrations are complete, Impact begins the training process on merchant boarding programs, customer service tools and equipment download/deployment. The process can take up to a year before an agent office is considered a fully operating ISO. Impact assists every step of the way, transitioning responsibilities to the ISO when they are ready to assume them.
"This is a program I wish I'd had when I made the transition 15 years ago," concluded Karawadra. "I just needed someone who was willing to show me the ropes and provide tools to help me manage and grow my ISO."

Here's how we're going to do it
Feeling loved, appreciated and comfortable in a yoga studio is incredibly important. This is perhaps where you spend your calmest hour or so of the day; where you may open up and become more sensitive to yourself and your needs. It's where you sweat, grow, challenge yourself and even change. This place can grow to be your second home, your family, your team!
We want to make your connection to our studio really easy and affordable, and keep you excited about us! Here's a few ways we're going the extra mile to keep you on our team:
30 Days of Unlimited Yoga for $39
The best way to become acquainted with a studio is to go as much as you can! Get the most out of your 30-day trial: try new classes, meet the instructors, make friends in the tea lounge, have an apple after class (we provide those!). Your membership includes mat and towel service if you need it, on a first come first serve basis.
Our new student trial price equals less than the price of two drop-ins and comes with a mat and towel if you need. Bonus.
12 Class Challenge
This is where things get interesting. The 12 class challenge is just like it sounds, completing the goal of 12 classes within 30 days. We offer such a variety of classes; warm foundation, yin, meditation, vinyasa flow, acro, hatha flow and happy hips, just to name a few. You may fall in love with hot yoga or prefer to practice in a non-heated space; this trial period is your time to explore.
Once you complete your 12 classes in 30 days we will excitedly gift you with a free month of yoga (one month auto-renew = $99 - we're giving you two!).
We hope your curiosity and connection to yoga and Yogalife will continue to flourish as you deepen your practice.
Save On Your Monthly Membership
When you get into the groove of a steady practice and come to the studio multiple times a week, it makes sense to do an auto-renew membership. To help with this commitment, we'll cover $10 of your monthly fee. Sign up in the first month of your 30-day trial to snag this deal.
We know this is a lot of information but at the end of the day we just want to give you yoga. We want you to feel valued and supported as you get more serious about your practice. Whether that involves 3 sweaty flow classes a week or a variety of hatha/yin/meditation, we want to make this as accessible as we can. Never hesitate to ask our staff and instructors about the details.

Strapless Floral Romper + Mauve Ruched Pencil Skirt
One thing I love about living in a city area is being able to wander around downtown and find cute little spots to shoot my blog photos. I ended up at this adorable little rooftop cafe after a random passerby told me to check out "The Attic". I'd heard whisperings about it from fellow bloggers so I made a point to make my way over. The Attic is a super cool cafe in Downtown Tampa. They have an excellent menu, tasty coffee (from Tampa's favorite, Buddy Brew of course), and a gorgeous view. The sun soaked patio was the perfect spot for me to shoot and take in the afternoon.
If you are a long time follower of my blog, you know that I often layer rompers underneath other pieces of clothing for a remixed look. I paired this floral Fashion Nova romper with this mauve Missguided midi skirt for a springtime blush look. The colors compliment each other so well even though they do no match perfectly. Paired with stacked wedges, this look is perfect for an afternoon brunch with the girls. Or you can pair it with a structured blazer for an office-appropriate outfit.

We are excited to announce the commencement of the ADHD WA psychometric testing service for young people aged 6-16. Elena Trethowan, psychology registrar, will be available to conduct cognitive and educational and assessments for ADHD WA members from February 2019.
Cognitive (IQ) assessments are used to develop an understanding of a child's learning capability, including their relative cognitive strengths and weaknesses.
Educational assessments provide information about a child's academic ability over a range of skill domains, including language, reading, comprehension, written expression and mathematics.
Additional testing may include (where appropriate) the assessment of attention, memory and executive function.
This information, in combination with a comprehensive developmental history (parent interview), can be used to assist in further psychological or medical assessment (such as assessment for ADHD) or in the development of individualised learning or curriculum adjustment plans with your child's school.
All assessments will include a report of test results for parents which may then be shared with educators or health professionals.

Oceans Jewels Pendant
This is a beautiful forest green sea glass piece I picked up on the Gulf Coast in South Texas. The project began as a riveted ring, and then morphed into a pendant with soft green fresh water pearl drops. I added an ocean wave cut out design in the back-plate, which is more viewable in brighter lighting. I used sterling silver and incorporated a wave stamp pattern on one side.

Ohhh where to begin with this trip! I have been the little travel queen lately, which is on the unusual side for me, but I have been eating up every minute of it due to wedding season kicking back up in a little less than 2 weeks!
For this trip, I headed up to New York City to visit my sister, Stephanie, who just so happens to be stationed up there as a flight attendant for Delta! With Steph's time in NYC coming to a close, I knew I had to get myself up there sooner rather than later if I wanted to take advantage of a free place to stay, a live-in tour guide, and of course, discounted plane tickets. So 4 days after being home from Disney, I re-packed my bags and jumped the first flight out to spend the next 48 hours in the city that never sleeps.
But before I was able to get up there, I had to go through the motions of flying for the first time in a decade. Yes you read that right, I havent been on a plane since I was 16 years old and let's just say that trip 10 years ago was the only flight I have ever been on. So here we are 10 years later, flying for the 2nd ever, and traveling by myself for the very first time. Lucky for me, flying out of Savannah made the process dummy-proof because its small, quaint, and everything was right next to each other.
I was also extremely luckily because I was flying via buddy pass, which for those that dont know, my sister was able to get extremely discounted round trip tickets for me, but the catch is that you have to fly stand by and basically take whatever seats are left. To my surprise, I landed first class tickets on BOTH trips there and back, had the window seat each time, and found myself in the first row each time that allowed me to be the first one off the plane. Talk about a GREAT first experience flying!
The rest of the trip really went by in this crazy blur! We had to have walked 13 miles in that first day as we toured Time Square, made it to the Top of the Rock, walked the Brooklyn Bridge, went inside Grand Central Station, got a quick glimpse of the Statue of Liberty, and saw an amazing, authentic comedy show! After wearing ourselves out the first day and almost being up for 24 hours straight, we spent the next afternoon strolling around Central Park, eating lunch on the Met Steps (xoxo gossip girl anyone!?), browsed by Bryant Park, and went inside the NY Public Library! I got to experience real new york pizza, became a pro at riding the subway (even though my card swiping skills were not the best), bought food off a street vendor, watch street performers, and so much more! New York was everything I thought it would be and more. I honestly can say that I have never seen anything like it or probably will for a while!
*Side Note: please excuse all the photos included in this post! I decided to leave my professional camera at home due to NYC's unpredictable rainy weather and just wanting to be present throughout my short time in the city. Plus, I love these photos and wouldnt change them for the world.

The Three Difficult Practices to Stop Emotional/Binge Cycle or( any habitual cycle)
We are creatures of habit and we get satisfaction from old chain of habits because we are afraid of feeling uncertain, of feeling grounded-less
We fear leaving the comfort zone;
the old habits that feels familiar and that we have identified with;
but if we got to the point where you had just enough,
where the comfort zone starts to bring discomfort ,
and you get to the point where you are so enthusiastic and so determined to have a fresh new start
Here are the fundamentals on how to top the chain of reaction , that intensifies the habitual cycle of emotional and binge eating. American Tibetan Buddhist teacher Pema chodron talks about "The three difficult practices" and how to cultivate fresh alternative.
I adapted her teachings which are the foundations to break any habitual cycle including Emotional/Binge Eating.
1- The first difficult practice when you notice yourself entering a pattern, i.e. symptoms of feeling tightening, feeling closing and withdrawal, when you notice an uncomfortable threatening such as when someone said something or something you did, and you get the urge to say something or do something to react just to get out of this feeling. So the first practice is to acknowledge that you have this urge instead of trying to get out of this urge. This get out of this urge is usually what makes us run away to food, so the 1st practice is to stay in the discomfort feeling (uneasy, insecure, anxious )so if you notice that urge, just acknowledge the feeling and let it go. Now, if you notice yourself caught up in the emotional eating episode (like you opened the fridge and ate that ice-cream pint) acknowledge that you are hooked, that you are on the default gear, that you are not grounded, that you are entering an old habit cycle, and say to yourself 'I got caught, I got caught" , "this is an old habit". When you stay with the feeling of acknowledging you are caught up such as experiencing uncomfortable emotions or just started to use food , acknowledge and sit with it so you won't turn it into a whole episode of bingeing, which would lead to a whole season of dieting.
2-The second difficult practice is choose something different. When you acknowledge that there are certain emotions emerging i.e. you are stressed, or feeling bored, or angry, or someone triggers you at home or work, or you felt a moment of not-enoughness, choose to respond with a new fresh start . For example, choose to express your emotions out loud , write them down, express them, sit with them, call a friend, call a coach, but don't feed them .
Now if you are already in the cycle when you acknowledge that you have binged or went through emotional episode, choose not to enter the habitual reaction of continuing the binge cycle, and most importantly choose not to self hate and shame, choose not to be hard on yourself. Choose something different. I have to tell you "to be hard on yourself" is the most habitual chain reaction that most of us human so conditioned to play. Go do anything that makes you feel good about yourself… dance, or walk , or go help someone,talk to a friend, meditate, look at yourself in the mirror and point of one thing you like of yourself…do something different that comes from a loving and compassionate place.
The habituals thing of feeding more of emotional/binge cycle has always made things worse. The habituals thing of blaming yourself or going back on diet/restriction has always made things worse so just choose something different.
As we grew in choosing something different, we grew in confidence, we trust the grounded-less space and grew in confidence . This is an opportunity to start a fresh start, and access our wisdom and intelligence .
3- The third difficult practice is making this practice a way of life…REPEAT AND REPEAT.. It means this doesn't apply for one time thing, or just until you lose the weight. This is a foundation of practice for now and as long as you are on this earth, there is no finish line. The first and second practice will remain to be foundation practice for you, they are the planting seeds so you can sow your goodness, and grow trust in yourself.

...She was stunning and gracious. Her beauty radiated from deep inside her and I was transfixed. Looking into her eyes as I clicked the shutter I could feel how powerful the moment was for both of us. Still to this day I think about our time together; it was life changing, empowering and liberating. It was the birth of a fire in me that has not gone out and I hope never will...

I wanted to capture my body and essence as it exists right now, a sort of farewell package to the last chapter of my life. I wanted an amazing photographer and artist with visions, enthusiasm and flare to help me bring this side out ~ I was lucky enough to find Mel. After my initial consult, I was convinced that the boudoir experience was partly for the man in my life ~ it didn't take me long to realize that it was entirely for me.

Group chief executive Nigel Wilson says: "We are successfully evolving our strategy from a post-financial crisis focus on cash, to one based on cash plus growth plus selective acquisitions.
"It is based on five macro-trends: increasingly global asset markets, ageing populations, digital lifestyles, welfare reform and bank retrenchment. In each case, we have accelerated growth: by expanding international investment management, providing retirement solutions, growing our digital presence, increasing private protection, and direct investments."

The BBC is trying to track down the subject of a meme entitled "Skeptical 3rd-world child". The look on the child's face, reminiscent of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson raised eyebrow, created a dialogue. The website Know Your Meme places this image in the category of "Third Word Success" and gives more details of its origins. It was submitted to Reddit by user manute3392 on 22nd June 2012. The photographer was Redditor Neplam, who travelled to Gulu, Uganda as a volunteer of the Student Global Health Alliance (see Reddit comments on the image). The woman in the image is Heena Pranav, a doctor from Chicago. Two other figures, one perhaps Nepalm, can be seen in the reflection of her sunglasses. It quickly went viral, with users adding text to the image to create this dialogue.
Nepalm posted the image to Reddit as well, with a different title, appealing to "Make this skeptical kid into a meme, STAT!". It didn't go viral despite being posted one day earlier. manute3392 acknowledged Nepalm as the photographer in the comments section of the viral image and gave more information about the organisation. You can search for all the other posts submitted to Reddit by both users, a bizarre history of images, links, and in many ways, values. For example, the first post to Reddit made by manute3392 was a photograph of a licence number plate from Virginia. Nepalm submitted a question, asking "what is the most uncomfortable nickname you have ever been given?"
The ethical issues of such image got swept away by virality, but BBC acknowledged them nonetheless. Who are the parents? What of informed consent and rights to privacy? It doesn't really matter whether the parents knew the image went viral, but whether they knew if the photograph was taken and posted online at all. The internet and social media has challenged conventional standards of privacy. At the same time, however, they've also enabled privacy to be bulldozed and superseded. Digital information, and digital images, once uploaded are difficult to remove. The concept of right to be forgotten, which is in practice in Argentina and the EU, stems from the stubbornness of digital information. Images such as this one take on a life of their own, with duplication after duplication being shared, created, and disseminated.
"We've chosen to publish the picture here because it has already been shared so widely and to highlight the debate it raises." - BBC.

Factoring Ambiguity?
Peter Nicholson
Night Flight
We descend. The airplane's lights struggle to cut through the night fog. I yearn for clarity. Words can be slippery and inexact, poor mechanisms by which to probe overlapping interrelations. Talk less, draw more. Glimpses of the city's lights emerge. We are lower than I imagined, although there has been no context from which to measure and judge. Complexity can offer the mirage of easy understanding. Craft more diagrams to turn buried realities inside out, unravel their guts. Faced with challenges, the impulse to revert to the stronger, narrative muscle emerges, overpowers other ways of responding. The simplest drawings can often be the most powerful. More coffee shop cave paintings. We need different, better problem-solving skills to untangle and realign the interrelated systems upon which we rely. We think we know, and posit action in that knowledge. Sometimes we'll never know, and have to go on anyway. One beat after the wheels hit, the spoilers extend, cancelling the lift upon which, seconds ago, our lives depended. As the brakes engage, we hold ourselves to the back of our seats, pretending this isn't some kind of crash. I search for the missing sentence that should come here, illuminating the complicated mashup of thought and emotion stirring right now at the intersection of my personal and professional trajectories. The sense of wonder enabled by delicious flight evaporates into another kind of absence, time unsuspended, turning, taxing, picture perfect.

FFF 14:7 (Aug-Sept 1968)
Flee, Follow, Fight
"But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. Fight the good fight of faith; lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called" (1 Timothy 6:11, 12).
In these words, "flee," "follow," and "fight," Paul the aged is seeking under God to encourage Timothy the man of God how he ought to conduct himself in the household of God.
We are not left in any doubt as to the things the Christian is called upon to flee. They are recorded in the earlier verses of this chapter. Paul knew he was speaking to a spiritually-minded man and shows him there are three mighty forces arrayed against him: the world, the flesh and the devil. The first two he is to flee from but in the third he is to stand fast. Surely it is a time to hold fast, stand fast, and run fast. We must be careful to maintain a standard of life worthy of the name of Jesus Christ. The normal order is to fight first, and only when there is no hope of victory, to flee. Spiritually, in order to fight the battles of the Lord we must flee certain things. How very difficult to learn dependence on God and oh! so often in the confidence of the flesh we fall. Our "strength" is to maintain a conscious weakness (2 Cor. 12:10). In every spiritual advance we need to recall, "In all thy ways acknowledge Him," and the promise is, "He shall direct thy paths" (Prov. 3:6).
The idea expressed in this word is not to dodge the conflict or skulk behind the first ridge as a place of shelter, but rather to escape urgently — to run and keep on running from the danger at hand. How easy it is to become unsettled because of the departure from the faith and the doctrine of demons evident today! To become intoxicated with the pleasures of this world and the various cults, culture, wranglings and lust for things is easy. The spirit of dissaffection and discontent is everywhere, and their evil influence is at work in the Church and in the home and in our evil hearts of unbelief. To know these things and observe their development we must give ourselves to the reading of the Word of God, and by the help of God to turn our backs on them and set our faces as flint to do His will … Perhaps like Joseph we may lose our coat, but retain our characters in this evil age.
The next word is most emphatic and conveys the idea of persistent following. Never in the Bible are we told to dawdle or follow halfheartedly but wholeheartedly, relentlessly, consistently, as exemplified in the life of Paul when he pursued the early Christians, "I persecuted them" (Acts 26:11). Following suggests the single eye as John points out in John 21:21, and leadership as seen in Hebrews 2:10. Christ is our Captain, our Prince and our Example… He walked the pathway of righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and meekness. These spiritual qualities were found in their fullness and beauty in the life of Christ and oh! to follow even as Caleb. These virtues were also seen in men like Daniel, David, Abraham, John, Job and Moses. In our day none of these things listed may mean much in the eyes of the world but they are precious in the eyes of the Lord. To pursue them is a life-time occupation, and but for the grace of God none of us will be able to keep up with them … Few maintain an even keel amid the varying tides of life. We need to turn to God in prayer and to keep our eyes fixed upon Christ. We need to avail ourselves of His Strength for our weakness, His wisdom for our folly, His grace for our greed, His love for our lust, His peace for our problems, His joy for our sorrows, His plenty for our poverty, and His drive for our drift.
The next word carries us into the stern reality of war. Fighting is not good generally speaking, in fact it is usually devilish whether against nations, men or Christ. Here the fight is called by God, "the good fight of faith." In such a conflict there is no room for the pacifist. Jude in his stirring book of intense and practical godliness uses the term, "contend earnestly" and surely this is the thought employed by Paul. It contains the root idea of agony as translated in Luke 22, "Being in agony He (the Lord Jesus) prayed more earnestly." We are engaged in a mortal combat and all who are enlisted under the banner of the cross are to hazard their lives for the Lord Jesus Christ and be marked by deadly earnestness in all three things. We are to be entrenched behind the great fundamentals of our faith. We are to put on the whole armour of God, and be armed with the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God. We are to dig in and meet the devil head-on in no do it yourself affair… The battle is the Lord's and we are to get our orders from our Commander-in-Chief.
We must learn as Joshua learned; it is not a question on whose side the man with the drawn sword is, but that he is Captain of the Host of the Lord. He did not come to take sides — He came to take over. We are to be subject to Him and to our Lord in all things … He does not take sides — He takes over and then modernism, materialism, communism, racialism — are not the number one problem but the furtherance of His cause and the extension of His Kingdom here on the earth. How are we to fight the good fight of faith? As we let go the grip on material, we shall grasp with tenacity the mighty fact of Eternal Life. We shall confess Christ in word and life and labours before a hostile world. We shall not yield a foot in the face of the advancing enemy, but resolutely, determinedly and faithfully press the battle to the very gates of hell. It is the fight of faith that overcomes Jericho not carnal weapons and human innovations or worldly machinations.
We are not left in the dark as to this conflict … Faith is the slender charter upon which to live and labour, build and battle for God. Faith looks beyond this present evil world and thus the uplook is good, the outlook is better, and by far the best is the inlook when faith gives way to sight over the hill of this present evil world. Perhaps reader as well as writer knows a good deal of defeat and even at times despair, but oh! how blessed to peruse a chapter like Hebrews 11 and realize anew our Leader has never lost a battle.

Hello all. After the success of the RHLSTP kickstarters we've decided to do the same for As It Occurs To Me. We want to make at least six monthly VIDEO episodes of this stand up and sketch show and we need money to pay the actors, camera crew, editors, puppet makers and cartoonists. We want to make these to TV quality so it's not going to be cheap. But all the episodes (as well as hopefully some extras and stand alone sketches) will appear for free online.
We also have to take into account VAT and kickstarter commission, so we will need at least £100,000 to get anywhere near doing this (but if we can make more that that then we can make more and/or longer episodes). If you enjoyed the free podcasts we did a few years back then please consider making a small or large donation and you'll be rewarded both with rewards, but also hours of new, stupid, clever and uncensored comedy.
Risks and challenges
We need to make sure that AIOTM <aiotm> is as funny to look at, as it was to listen to.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

Journal Your Success: Planting seeds of confidence in your life
All successful brands have one big thing in common and that is a fan base. A fan is someone who takes a vested interest in the success of a brand. They are devoted and show their support by making financial investments (purchasing tickets, CDs, merchandise), showing up for events, word of mouth promoting, and knowing the brand's history of success (in other words-knowing the stats). Fans are a critical asset to the success of any brand.
You are created for success and are a brand in your own right, therefore, you need fans. You deserve and need a group of people to take vested interest in what you are called to do. That group must begin with you and you must have the biggest fascination with your success over anyone else. You have to be your own number one fan.
Some feel that being your own biggest fan is arrogant, conceited, vain, or proud, but why? God has given you great gifts to share with the world. You have expertise and information that changes lives. There are people who are greatly improved by knowing you. So why not toot your own horn? Why not publicly celebrate the contributions you make to the world around you. Aren't you worth it? This last question of worth is the real struggle for most "I'm not a fan of myself" women. Therefore, if this is your issue, you must get over that misnomer if you want to make an impact that truly reflects your greatness. Until you become a fan of you, you will never be totally comfortable with others signing up for your fan club.
The best way to convince yourself that you are fan-worthy is to keep track of all your fabulous, outstanding, and amazing accomplishments in your very own success journal. When I say all, I mean all: from losing .5 pounds, to winning a lucrative contract for your business, to mending a broken relationship, to cleaning out that pesky closet. Seeing your successes in black and white abolishes your ability to debate your effectiveness in the world. Your success journal becomes concrete proof that you do indeed have God-given gifts, you are an expert who changes lives, and people are better because of you. Journaling your success is a staple for every woman who is her own biggest fan.
Put your greatness on paper so you'll always have a reference of the remarkable things you accomplish. In a very short time you'll develop a deeper appreciation for your success. You will build confidence while becoming increasingly comfort with other people celebrating you. Treat yourself to a beautiful new journal and begin to record your accomplishments today. That's what a fan would do.

|Review #354
This has cask number 8102353 and is bottled by Whiskybroker. Only 86 bottles were made. Single Cask, no colour and it is not chill filtered, so everything is exactly how it should be! The smell is fresh, lightly floral and full of apples and pears with a sugary end.
Very powerful! White fruits and apple pie in the taste. Some vanilla really comes forward in the finish. Great oak influence all the way through as well. I get a spicy/burning/peppery feeling in the taste as well. Can't quite pinpoint it, but it is very nice!
This is just well above average from start to finish. This really shows that age definitely isn't everything! With water it just gets even sweeter and some citrusy notes comes forward. It is young and fresh, so you can play around with quite some water without drowning it. I will rate this 88/100 (22/22/22/22).

Cases that involve non-criminal matters are tried in civil court. Most civil court cases are about monetary compensation or a division of material assets. Small claims court is part of the civil court system, but certain aspects make it significantly different than other civil court branches.
Civil Court Function
Civil court encompasses property damage, probate issues, family, divorce and child custody matters, contract breaches, landlord/ tenant disputes, child abuse, and juvenile misconduct.
Small Claims Court Function
Small claims courts deal with small scale civil matters like back rent, unpaid personal loans or wages, minor property damage, and minor consumer complaints. Divorce, probate, and malpractice disputes cannot be resolved in small claims court.
Parties in small claims courts must present their cases without an attorney present. In civil court, legal representation isn't required, but it is strongly encouraged.
Monetary Claims
The maximum amount compensation a plaintiff can seek in small claims court depends on the state where the lawsuit was filed, but it is usually in the $3000 to $5000 range. Damages sought in some civil courts can be unlimited.
Cost and Time
Because they involve attorneys and large sums of money, civil suits can be complex, time-consuming and costly. Small claims cases are usually simple, straightforward, and cost-effective.

A semi truck went crashing through a Washington business Monday after police say that the driver fell asleep at the wheel.
The accident happened at around 5:05 a.m. in Marysville, Washington.
According to Kiro 7 News, the semi truck was traveling along Interstate 5 near State Road 531 when the unnamed driver fell asleep, sending the rig crashing into a mold making business adjacent to a window tinting business, hence the window tinting sign present in the photos.
More photos. Crews are on scene taking down tree to start process of getting this truck out of here. No word on what caused truck to leave I5. pic.twitter.com/PkpEY1bHqn
— Tony Black (@TonyBlackTV) July 30, 2018
Luckily, the driver suffered only minor injuries in the crash and no employees were inside the building at the time of the incident.
Washington State Patrol Trooper Rocky Oliphant said that the unnamed truck driver is believed to have fallen asleep at the wheel while driving on I-5, causing him to leave the interstate, go through a guardrail, down an embankment, and into the building, leaving the cab of the truck and a portion of the trailer completely inside the seriously damaged office.
They say it could be a long day trying to get semi out of here. Building seems to be structurally okay. These are photos from inside the window tinting business. pic.twitter.com/s9eAw4inLL
— Tony Black (@TonyBlackTV) July 30, 2018
"I didn't know whether to laugh or cry," said Brad Hansen, owner of the damaged business.
"It was a good thing the crash happened before hours, that way nobody was hurt."
The truck driver has since been charged with negligent driving.

Today's guest post comes from Matt. Enjoy.
Hey there, Matt here! If you've been following the blog so far, I'm sure you have learned a lot about the different tools and archaeological methods used at Tel Ashkelon, and even about the lives of the archaeologists and volunteers themselves, some of whom are my own peers in the Harvard Summer School Program. I'm a rising junior at Boston College studying Linguistics and Economics. I became involved in this program because my Biblical Hebrew professor suggested I try out archaeology. Although I do not plan to work in the field of archaeology, this trip has been extremely informative. I have been able to situate my modest knowledge of the Ancient Near East in a historical and geographic context. For example, yesterday many of the volunteers here left on a field trip to two other archaeological sites in the Biblical Shephelah, otherwise known as the low lands. One of these sites was Azekah. This tell borders the Valley of Elah, which is mentioned in 1 Samuel 17 as the place where the Israelites met the Philistines in battle and presumably where David fought Goliath. This process has been extremely intriguing to me.
Archaeological finds are especially interesting to me because I mainly focus in texts in my linguistic studies. Therefore, since I have mainly learned about the Ancient Near East through texts, I had not previously had the experience of digging through ancient people's garbage to discover how they REALLY lived, not just how they said they lived. This has given me a different perspective on ancient life and on the nuances between idealized and realized life in both ancient and modern contexts.
I hope to continue finding out more about digging and Ashkelon as I work on the so-called "Snake Tower" in Grid 20. It has been an absolute privilege to work there, and I know that it will be an experience that will change my work ethic moving forwards. I can guarantee that I have never moved this many buckets (well, guffas) before in my life! As we discover more about the free-standing walls, the towers, and the newly uncovered walls, I hope to understand the relationship between people and architecture, and how those relationships span through different periods of occupation. This has been a more than thrilling experience so far and I can't wait for what comes next. I'll leave off with a quote that has reassured and motivated me throughout the dig: "The answers lie beneath."

These adorable pumpkin hand pies are as easy fall treat that makes a great alternative to traditional pumpkin pie with much less bake time. This adorable recipe works well for Halloween and Thanksgiving, but is sure to bring a smile on any crisp fall day. Filled with sweetly spicy pumpkin filling, pumpkin hand pies make a delicious dessert recipe. They are close enough to a homemade breakfast pastry to enjoy as a breakfast or brunch treat. These sweet little hand pies will fill your home with the delightful fragrance of fall as they bake.
Ok so not only is it September but it is officially fall now meaning I can fill my little corner of the internet with pumpkin everything because I am perhaps the most #basic girl ever.
I know I cheated on pumpkin a couple weeks ago with these easy apple cider donuts, but my love of pumpkin everything and pumpkin spice still burns strong. And I ask you: is it even really fall if you don't bake something pumpkiny?
This is this year's take on pumpkin pie. I've done lots of variations of pumpkin dessert including two kinds of cheesecake and donuts. But I've never done anything remotely like regular pumpkin pie.
Not that this is regular pumpkin pie. Nope, this is a cute version of pumpkin pie. Which is incidentally what my almost 4 year old (how did that happen?!) had to say about these when she saw them. "Aww, Mommy, they're so cute!"
And she's right. They are adorbs. I definitely upped the cute factor by using a pumpkin cookie cutter to cut the pie crust, but you do not have to take it to that level. You can just use a 2 inch biscuit cutter instead, which would let you serve these treats as Christmas dinner dessert too. How fabulous would little pumpkin hand pies look on your cookie table after Christmas? I just can't. It's the stuff of basic girl dreams.
How to Make a Perfect Pumpkin Hand Pie
Making the pumpkin hand pies is pretty easier, but there are a couple of tricks I learned along the way that make this pretty simple to do.
- Make sure whatever cutter you choose to use is at least 2 inches in diameter or else it will be too small. If you choose a pumpkin cookie cutter, look for big ones like this one.
- Do not skip brushing the pie crust with egg wash! The egg wash both helps seal the pie dough and gives the crust a pretty golden sheen.
- Go easy on the filling. The first time I made these, I overfilled the pies so I had leakage. About two teaspoons of filling pressed gently in the center of the dough is plenty.
- Notice how there's no liquid in the filling aside from the pumpkin? Most pumpkin pie recipes call for some form of milk. Do not add any milk into this recipe or the filling will be too runny to stay inside the little crusts.
Looking for other sweet pumpkin recipes? Try these:
- Italian Style Pumpkin Cheesecake
- No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake
- Easy Pumpkin Donuts
- Pumpkin French Toast Casserole
- Pumpkin Granola
- Baked Pumpkin Oatmeal
Pumpkin Hand Pies
- Prep Time: 15 minutes
- Cook Time: 15 minutes
- Total Time: 30 minutes
- Yield: 12 hand pies 1x
Adorable pumpkin hand pies are the perfect handheld dessert for the fall holidays.
- 2 premade pie crusts (1 package)
- 1 cup of pumpkin puree
- 1/2 cup of brown sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tbs water
- sugar for sprinkling
- Preheat the oven to 400.
- Unroll the pie crusts onto a flat surface covered in wax paper. Use your cookie cutters or biscuit cutters to cut shapes out of the pie crusts. Put crust scraps together into a ball and roll it out to cut more shapes. I was able to make 24 shapes for 12 pies total, but you may be able to make less depending on the size of your cutter. Lay half the shapes out onto a cookie sheet lined with wax paper. Beat together the egg and tablespoon of water to make an egg wash. Brush onto the pie crust shapes on the cookie sheets.
- In a medium bowl, mix together 1 cup of pumpkin puree, 1/2 cup of brown sugar, vanilla, and the spices until thoroughly combined. Spoon two teaspoons into the center of each pie crust shape, pressing it down slightly. Leave some room at the edges of the pie crust shapes. Repeat until the half of the shapes on the tray have filling on them. Top each open faced pie with another shape and seal the sides by pinching them together and pressing them down with the tines on a fork. Repeat until done. Once all the pies are sealed, use a knife to cut slits into the center of the pies for venting. Then brush the pies with egg wash and sprinkle with sugar.
- Bake pies in a 400 degree oven for 13-15 minutes or until crust is golden. Remove from oven, let cool and enjoy.
- Serving Size: 1 hand pie

IdrA and Artosis Get Personal
Earlier today, IdrA and Artosis had the chance to spend some quality time together inside an elevator which got stuck for 30 minutes at the TG-Intel Open in Seoul, Korea. What do you think these two supposedly socially awkward men talked about during the time they spent secluded together? Let us know in the comments!
News of course has been slow lately, as we anxiously await BlizzCon and the next patch for Starcraft II itself. Fear not though, you can get your Starcraft fix by tuning into a GOMTV stream and catching the round of 64 at the TG-Intel Open as it progresses towards the finals.

I've gotten a lot of requests from many of you who are interested in learning Photoshop and how to use its various tools. Photoshop is a crazy involved program, as I'm sure you know, and I probably only really know the basics. Everything I know and do is completely self-taught by trial and error. I started with Photoshop Elements way back in the day and just tried to read, watch and learn as much as I could to help me edit my images the way I like them.
To help you all have a better grasp of the BASICS of Photoshop, I thought I would spend this week walking you through my understanding of some of the aspects of Photoshop. As I mentioned, I am completely self-taught, so it's highly likely I don't use the tools exactly as they should be used or to their full capacity - just FYI for all you Photoshop experts out there who might cringe watching me, lol!
Ok! Now that that disclaimer is out of the way.... Just like any new camera, lens or equipment, the very best way to learn is to practice, practice, practice. I highly recommend downloading the FREE trial, opening a few photos and playing around. I promise it's the best way to learn, and as long as you have your original photo saved somewhere, you will be a-okay!
The first thing to understand (I think) is the Photoshop tool bar. This bar is either placed at the top of side of your screen and is a quick link to most of the tools available in Photoshop. Below is a handy-dandy tool bar cheat sheet if you want to print it out or save for reference!
Because I'm a very visual learning, I decided to do a quick video overview of the various tools and how I use them! If you are completely unfamiliar with PS, then this video will likely be helpful to you! If you've dabbled in PS before, most of what I'm sharing will be pretty familiar to you!

The Family History of Michael-Patrick Crowley (Former Taoiseach)
The Family History of Michael-Patrick Crowley
I want to share the story of my family; it takes us across 300 years. The Muskerry branch of the Crowleys was established in the late 1570 around Macroom, an area which remained under the MacCarthy Muskerry until 1702. Research was facilitated by the rare occurrence of the name in the area, recorded pedigrees. The Crowleys there stem from one or two original ones from Carbery which settled there in the late 1570's.
The pedigree reads; Michael b 1959, son of William b. 1915, son of Michael b 1886, son of William b. 1856, son of John b. 1809, son of Cornelius d 1842, son of Daniel 1766, son of Cornelius Og 1665, son of Cornelius Senior 1625, son of Donal 1590, son of Conor b. 1558 - son of Fyneen, constable of MacCarthy Muskerry, Chief of the O'Crowley clan 1577, son of Teige Og, son of Teige Mor 1521.
My father William was born in 1915; his parents were Michael (born 1886) and Mary O'Leary (born 1888). My grandfather Michael was the 3rd son of a large family of eleven children.
My great grandfather William Crowley b. 1856, d 1947, lived in Shandrum Parish at Cherry Hill on the Gould estate, married Elizabeth Scannell of Fidane in 1882. His brother Daniel with his wife emigrated to New Zealand, were never heard of.
My great grandfather was to go with him but changed his mind and in 1911 William borrowed 140 Pounds from O'Flaherty who had a mill. He acquired a small farm in Ardglass with 15 acres and 6 cows. With his 7 sons he built the two floor stone farm house. In 1913 two cows died. Three sons had to immigrate to America. Ultimately, William bought a threshing machine, and rented his services for harvesting. Today my cousins are still in the farm, with over a 120 cows. Of the three brothers who went to Rochester NY, Jack had a plumbing business which has developed into a large business. Michael had a moving business. Daniel went into side activities during the prohibition, and was out the family circle.
William was the son John Crowley (born 1809, died 1899) and Johanna O'Keefe - married in 1840, had only two sons, Daniel born 1845, William born 1856, a daughter Margaret born 1852. John, my great-great grandfather was born 1809 in Brehaun, Macroom. In 1831 he was a tenant of 4 acres, working on the Gould estate of Macroom when he got involved in the tithe war. Cornelius his father, along with John's brother Daniel and Aunt Catherine were well set with 52 acres of land in Glaunanary. The Gould family provided John with a new prospect which was to move onto their estate of Cherry Hill in Shandrum Parish.
John's father Cornelius, my great great great grandfather, had a brother Jeremiah who served in the British army for 12 years and returned to Macroom in 1835. Cornelius date of birth is not recorded, but we know that he died in 1842. Their father Daniel along with his own father Cornelius Og (or junior) was alive in 1766 in Macroom. Cornelius Og was the son of Cornelius senior; both were in the MacCarthy Muskerry Estate papers as they leased over 350 acres. In 1702 the Macroom MacCarthy Muskerry estate is sold.
Cornelius Og had a brother Miles, well known since Miles went to France in 1667, had this branch of the Crowley genealogy and its coat of arms recorded both in France and Ireland. Cornelius Senior is the son of Donal son of Conor. In 1573 Conor along with his father Fyneen was in the MacCarthy Muskerry household, at the time Fyneen was the constable of MacCarthy Muskerry. He owned Drumgarrif in Kilnagross before becoming the chief of the O'Crowley clan in 1577.

Q. Are any animals harmed or killed in your acquisition of specimens?
A. ABSOLUTELY NOT! Professor Onslow has dedicated his life and career to understanding and protecting the animal life of our world, and would not harm any creature that was not first trying to harm him. This is why the specimens offered are themselves so unusual: bits of hair, claw, feather, and shed skin, for example.
Q. But some of your higher-priced items are bones of the rare animals. Are you sure that you are really going back in time? Are you really sure the species are dead?
A. We collect only from live or freshly dead specimens. It Ain't Dead 'Til We Say So!
