This section–the Media section– is a work in progress. The interviews/articles listed are the ones that I know exist right off the top of my head because I've listened to/read/watched them recently. There are others. There are tons others floating around in cyber space…and I'll get to them in the coming weeks. But this is a start. Have at it, kiddies.
MEDIA — A collection of Interviews, Articles, and all that stuff.
EDIT: Matti from the DH Facebook Fanpage just made my life!
Soo, for those of you really deep into David's career, you know that back in 1998, he did a film called "Burn" which was written by Dylan Kussman, produced by him and Bryan Singer (among others), and directed by Scott Storm. Long story short, the film made it around to a few film festivals, picked up some awards, and got the thumbs up critically. Didn't move any of the major movie studios, though, and the project went on the back burner for just about everyone involved. A while back when David was first dropping the name of his production company, Dark Hero Studios, he mentioned in one of his interviews that he was working on releasing this movie! Let's cross our fingers, kiddies. I really need to see this one on a DVD before I die! Thank you to Matti Gruff for being the coolest DH fan EVER.
Basically, ever since I've heard about this film a few years back, I've been clawing around every corner of the web for something from this. A clip, a screenshot, a picture of someone looking at a screenshot–anything! I even wrote Dylan Kussman and inquired about it. Nothing.
Thanks to Matti Gruff, my life is a little more content tonight. Above is a full trailer for this awesome, awesome film! Let's hope that Dark Hero Studios can bring this baby to DVD soon!

Hairy Legs Hanna's Feminist Quarter-Hour
Co-written with Lilly Camp
Subscribe now at www.hairylegshannah.com
In this new radio program, created by Woke City's Ministry of Progressive Affairs, feminist tweeter/Social Justice Warrior Hairy Legs Hannah tackles issues of discrimination, inequality, and free speech to teach kids about the liberal agenda - or she would, if she had any interest in following the script read by white, cisgender male narrator Ally Ira. With her roommate/rival Shaven Legs Shawn constantly trying to steal her spotlight, and her sister Astounding Ashley undermining her at every turn, Hairy Legs Hannah may not be the hero Woke City needs, but the one it deserves.

Chilli, Chilly, Chile - EWS round 1
23/03/2018 Arrival day
Flew in to Santiago, Chile with Charley Murray and we got our tetris skills out and packed up the city car with three bike boxes and luggage before heading up to Lo Barnachea where the Enduro World Series round was being held - we noticed on the way up it was a bit higher than expected - the race village sits at a sweet 2600m altitude. Dropped Charley off and headed to my accom at Valle Nevado going up even higher at 3000m altitude.
Upon arrival a Chillean man was waving and came up to my car asking if I was the third person, I was staying with a Liam Moyniham, James Shirley (from Scotland) and Joseph Nation so I just thought there was a language barrier and mentioned James and Liams names which got a very excited reaction from the man, "si si". He was a hotel carer and took me down to the room as the boys were out riding.
He unlocked the room and let me in, so I unpacked the car and settled into the room, took a dump, had a shower, all the post-travel stuff. I was still in my towel putting my bike together when the boys came home… except it wasn't 'the boys' - some randoms Shane and Barret turned up to my room, or actually flip that around, I was in their apartment and there was a stranger in their place setting a bike up half naked. Luckily they found it pretty funny and ended up getting along pretty well. They had also arrived today and showed me a video they took that morning of a man getting beaten by cops on the street at full whammies. Went and found my actual room with the boys and went for an evening ride and soaked up the amazing scenery! Ded.
Sleep in day with a couple of laps on the Lo Barnachea activity park, trying to get used to 3000m altitude as quick as possible.
25/03/2018 Practice Day One
Stage one started right outside our house - holla holla. Got on the bikes with the lads and headed to the gondy, first stair section on the way claimed Joes tire and we were one man down before even getting on the gondola. Stage one was open, fast and drifty as.
I managed to slide over on two loose corners, bitta 'wholley hecka I'm actually in Chile riding my bike' kinda nerves. Headed up to stage two, 11km of down hill that actually doesn't have a climb, biking down thinking to myself wowwoweewow what a track, before getting to the last section where I toppled over in the rocks -luckily not hurting myself - but smashing my frame, stem, and wheel. Wowoweewow what the fudge? Big, sudden wake up call. Luckily the only thing that was immediately stuffed was my stem so I found a replacement for stage three prachy then headed home to catch up on a lot of admin.
24/03/2018 Practice Day Two
Another perla of a day, scoffed down some eggs on toast before jumping in the car with ze bike and Liam.
We stopped by at Cody Kellys to pick up a new stem, whacked it on and was good to go for the day. Chilly winds on the lift and yarns with Jamesy boy on the way to stage 4, watched a photographer in a red jacket taking stills of pinners on a wall ride, he then moved from his safe spot onto a liaison road and was quite promptly bof'd in the back by a rider at speed. I saw his camera fly at least 5 metres. Luckily everyone got up.
Got onto riding bikes and the tracks were running mint - another day of fast loose and bouldery tracks. Stayed on my broken wheel from yesterday (I wanted to save my race wheel) and fully fudged it down stage 5 loosing the tire off the rim completely. I chucked a tube in (thanks Liam) and finished the stage still on the same rim. Back up the hill, chucked a fresh wheel on and boosted down stage 6. Thoughts: stage 6 is going to take out half the race, rock bombs everywhere.
Caught up with the kiwis for some chinwags before boosting back Valle Nevado to spruce the race rig up, and down some chicken sammies.
25/03/2018 Race Day One Enduro World Series Round One, Chile
10am check in and 12.30pm stage one start time (due to time delays) made for a pretty relaxing entry into the first bit of serious racing for the year. I was teamed up with a stella crew - Kiwis, Loui Harvey, Charles Murray and Jake Paddon along with Shane from America (the guys who's room I'd broken into earlier in the week). Stage one was loose and drifty - I took a reserved approach to avoid any misshaps and got down clean. We caught the chair up to stage two with a small push in between and then right into the biggest/longest stage the EWS has ever run.
It started with rocky park type track, then changed to a more natural terrain part way down picking up speed in wide open sections and finishing with a very technical tight rocky section followed by tight switch backs (this part destroyed most peoples race). My hands gave up half way down the stage and nurse mode engaged and crawl mode was unlocked for the final section. Big ol' pedal up to stage 3 and we were rewarded with a shorter final stage with wide blown out corners and rocky park sections - pretty satisfying getting to the bottom with no spills for the day! Riding into 65th. Sleep mode engaged.
26/03/2018 Race Day Two Enduro World Series Round One, Chile
Slightly earlier start and everything running on time today made things feel a little less faffy. Headed up to stage one with the crew and had a skid off comp at the top for the media squids. A couple of the riders nearly ruined their days in the process - true enduro spirit right thur. Stage four was fast with minimal pedalling and enough bumps to vibrate your eyeballs. I came into the top section in true kamakazi style and just held on luckily, riding the rest of the stage with quite a bit more control.
I had a good single trail liaison to stage 5 with a minimal rest period before heading down the steep switchback, off camber track. Had a lotta fun managing to stick on line most of the way down and bring the back wheel back from the brink of wash out a fair few times. The same big ol' liaison again today that we had to stage 3 yesterday, except now we had an extra pedal chairlift and hike a bike up to 3600m altitude for the final stage 6.
This again had a mixture of everything that a loose, rocky, dusty mountain could provide. I rode well down this stage and felt like I was having a goodie until I hit a tight corner quite a bit too fast and washed the front out right underneath me, twisting the bars in the process. After fixing 'er up I jumped back on and finished up the stage cleanly. Bummed about that last hickup to what could have been a crash free weekend, but then found out I had ridden into 50th and things seemed a lot better ayo. Sloth mode engaged, followed by rushed pack mode, intensified by lost passport panic.
27/03/2018 Travel to Colombia
Found my passport at 1am (in my bike box), went to sleep for two hours and woke up at 3am to travel to the airport with Shane (remember, the guys house I broke into). Came across a search party on the way down looking for a man lost on the hill, not ideal as its pretty chilly at night. Got to the airport at 4.10am with more than an hour to kill so we headed back into Santiago for a McDonalds mission. Bad fail in the drive through when we couldn't overcome the language barrier and were ignored even though we took multiple laps around trying to place orders - hah jokes on them, body's a temple anyway Maccas. Filled up the car and bought a coke, which I decided to drink whilst I was driving. Too my surprise what I thought was the motorway was not the motorway and just as I was opening the coke a speed bump popped up out of the dark and we hit it at 80. Coke was now everywhere, but the steering wheel grip was now unreal. We got back to the airport and got the car ticked off (somehow ) and we joined the rest of the EWS riders at the airport for check in. Got on the flight completely pooped, but watched movies the whole way as per usual. A guy fainted next to me on the plane - drama followed. We sorted him out with water and juice and the lucky bugger was moved up to business. The whole EWS squad landed in Bogota, Colombia way behind time for our connecting flights, so the whole squad had to run through the airport (about 50 of us) losing two frenchies along the way - lucky they found us again just in time for the connecting flight. The plane to Manizales from Bogata was filled entirely with EWS riders, and as expected when we landed there were absolutely no bikes, haha. An hour filling forms and Shane and I were back on the road in search of Maccas, but had to settle for Subway in the end before spending another two hours finding our accom as Colombia likes to have many streets with the same name and numbers. Found it, still no bike, beer item earned.
Chur Sven, as always, for the banger photos.

Your own beautiful world
You live in a beautiful world. The more you appreciate and enjoy that beauty, the more beautiful it becomes.
Beauty is impossible to define and, at the same time, impossible to ignore.
You know what it is without having to learn.
Beauty is much more than mere physical appearance.
In fact, magnificent beauty can often be found in what appears to be plain and ordinary, when you explore it deeply enough.
Beauty can awe, inspire and astonish.
Beauty can energize your spirit in ways that nothing else can.
One of the nicest things you can do for yourself is to give yourself the time and space to simply take in the beauty that is around you.
Beauty asks nothing more than to be treasured, and when you let yourself experience it, beauty has much to give.
There is beauty stretching out in all directions.
Dive deeply into it, and it will make you more.
Won't you simply take time to enjoy your each day of your life, and take time to reflect in the beauty of your life and the country in which you live?

Pumpkin Cookie Pie
This post may contain affiliate links. For more information, read my disclosure policy.
Pumpkin cookie pie answers the question, Should you make pumpkin cookies or pumpkin pie? Why not BOTH? In ONE pie recipe?? An easy pie crust filled with pumpkin spice cookie dough!
I am in love with my cookie pies, that's for sure. Funfetti, candy, oatmeal – I've made so many! (And I have another one in the works!) I think I love cookie pie so much because it combines two things I love – cookies and pie. Plus, they're so easy to make.
All you need to make a great cookie pie is a great cookie recipe and a pie crust. They bake up perfect every time! There's no need to worry about the filling leaking or the cookies spreading too much – cookie pies are practically foolproof.
Since it's totally pie season and we should all be eating pies for days and weeks (that's the law in November, right?), why not make a cookie pie for Thanksgiving? Of course, if you're going to to do that, it should be PUMPKIN.
This pumpkin cookie pie is even easier than all my other cookie pies. You know why? They start with my favorite – Krusteaz mixes!
First of all, I had no idea that Krusteaz even made a pie crust mix. (I'm a horrible excuse for a pie lover and ambassador, aren't I?) In fact, their pie crust mix was their first product (just add water!) and it's where Krusteaz got their name. Get it? Krust-eaz. Crust ease!
The pie crust mix is easy to work with. You literally just add water and stir, then roll and put it in your pie plate. Then you have to fill it with the cookie part of the cookie pie!
Have you seen the seasonal Krusteaz mixes? They have Pumpkin muffins, pumpkin pie bars, and this Pumpkin Spice Cookie Mix. All of them are so good, so you should grab some if you find them. The pumpkin spice cookie mix is the perfect blend of pumpkin spices and it even comes with a glaze.
As always, making a Krusteaz mix is easy. In fact, they've become my daughter's favorite brand. She knows that she can make an entire recipe without my help using their mixes. So they really are easy!! (Check out the first post on her new blog – it uses the gingerbread cookie mix!)
To make the pumpkin cookie pie:
Simply press the cookie dough into your prepared pie crust, bake, and top with the glaze. Then serve alone or with ice cream and you've got the perfect Thanksgiving dessert!!
Get the FULL recipe for the Pumpkin Cookie Pie here.

I could really feel that my energy was low after yesterday's monster stage. I woke up and just didn't want to get out of bed. Around 12:15, I managed to get out of the room and over to the supermarket for some breakfast. This is gonna be a hard day.
Sorry Russia, it's not your time for a visit today! Close but still so far away!
I'm ready for a good ride after a night in the tent at the camp site in Lieksa. I've planned to reach Ilomantsi today, which is about 130Km.. or at least I thought so!?

JumpCloud's Cloud RADIUS Service (RADIUS-as-a-Service) provides you with pre-built, pre-configured, scalable, and fully managed and maintained RADIUS servers. Add as many RADIUS servers as you like for WiFi access control, VPN authentication, and authentication for your network devices, servers, and applications. Cloud RADIUS complements JumpCloud's other directory services capabilities, providing an additional method to authenticate your users across multiple services and clients.
RADIUS Authentication Methods
JumpCloud's RADIUS services allow for highly secure authentication methods. Authentication can be configured to leverage EAP-TTLS, PAP, or PEAP, and supports WPA2 Enterprise and RADIUS encryption modes. JumpCloud's RADIUS servers require only standard port 1812 enabled to reduce the need and associated risk with opening up other ports.
Shared Secret
JumpCloud provides automatic generation of complex passwords (shared secrets) that your WAPs and JumpCloud's RADIUS servers will leverage between them for authentication. This maintains the required secure connection between infrastructure endpoints, yet are hidden from your users who are authenticating using their own individual credentials.
Public IP
The RADIUS servers public IPs establish improved authentication trusts to ensure that the request is coming from the customer's network. This means that even if the shared secret is compromised, another attacker would have to have internal network access to leverage it.
Certificate Trust
JumpCloud's RADIUS-as-a-Service offers you an additional method for your client desktops, laptops, and mobile devices to verify that they are indeed talking to the correct RADIUS server (so that no one else can pretend to be JumpCloud's RADIUS server). This will prevent your clients from trusting any other RADIUS servers, and JumpCloud strongly recommends that you leverage the client certificate method for this reason.
Group-based Access Control
Leverage User Groups to restrict access to specific networks or VPN access. JumpCloud will ensure that the user making the authentication request through RADIUS is a member of the appropriate Group assigned to the RADIUS server itself.
- Authenticates to your employee's JumpCloud account, keeping your user management centralized.
- Provision, deprovision, and configure users to authenticate via cloud RADIUS servers in seconds.
- Group-based control per client network for fine-grained access.
- EAP TTLS/PAP/PEAP — fully TLS-encrypted authentication path, from client to JumpCloud and back: none of your credentials ever go unprotected.
- WPA2 Enterprise/RADIUS support to provide secure yet flexible choices for your hardware.
- TCP and UDP client support — choose TCP for reliability and UDP for compatibility, even with older clients.
- Supports multiple clients — including, but not limited to, Linux, Mac, Windows, Android, iOS, and Windows Phone.
- Increased Security — everyone gets their own WiFi password, making sure you completely control who has access to your network.
- No more do-it-yourself — eliminate the complexity of building, configuring, and maintaining your own FreeRADIUS servers, as JumpCloud takes care of it all for you.
- Ensure that all mobile phones and tablets are registered, and know which users have which mobile devices.
- Temporary access control — provide temporary access, easily, and quickly to your networks, VPNs, and applications. Someone visiting for the day? JumpCloud can easily revoke all their access at 5pm that day. Got a vendor on-site for a week? Disable their access at 5pm on Friday with a few clicks.
- Unlimited networks and client applications — cloud RADIUS is an integral part of your JumpCloud service, just turn it on and go, no matter how many networks you need to protect.
- Security built-in — secured from the ground up, fully managed, and audited by security experts.
- 24×7 monitoring and maintenance — rest easy knowing your virtual RADIUS infrastructure is always on.
- Fully scalable — JumpCloud grows to meet your needs and saves you time, at no additional cost to your infrastructure.
- Expert support — JumpCloud's support team is one of the most experienced in the business, so when you have a problem, you're talking to experts, not someone reading from a decision tree.

Two-Hour, Edge-of-Your-Seat View of the Natural World Premieres Sunday, July 9, at 8/7c on National Geographic and Simulcast on Nat Geo WILD
Wed Apr 19 2017 14:00:00 GMT+0000 (UTC)
World's Greatest Cinematographers to Capture Stunning Wildlife in Real Time in 30 Locations Around the World
Animal Expert, Zoologist and Naturalist Chris Packham to Join Lynch in Studio; National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Dr. Bob Ballard Will Report From the Field
(New York, NY – April 19, 2017) National Geographic announced today that Golden Globe- and Emmy award-winning actress Jane Lynch will host the network's greatest natural event, EARTH LIVE, premiering Sunday, July 9, at 8/7c. The two-hour live broadcast is the first of this magnitude — think of it as the Super Bowl or Olympics of the natural world — showcasing the best of the animal kingdom in real time and in spectacular fashion.
EARTH LIVE will be anchored in a New York City studio and guided by host Lynch as it is simulcast globally on National Geographic and Nat Geo WILD in 171 countries and 45 languages. Joining Lynch in studio is animal expert, zoologist and naturalist Chris Packham. Packham, alongside Lynch, will give viewers access to key locations across six continents — from South America to Asia and everywhere in between — as world-renowned cinematographers use cutting-edge technology to showcase a number of wildlife firsts. And, for the first time, viewers will watch live wildlife lit only by the moon, in full color, via new low-light camera technology with a Canon ME20.
"I'm excited and honored to host National Geographic's EARTH LIVE," said Lynch. "It's going to be a groundbreaking, beautiful and action-packed wildlife symposium that will help viewers from all across the world better understand the animals that live around them."
"We could not be more thrilled to have Jane Lynch be the host of our inaugural EARTH LIVE broadcast," said Tim Pastore, president of original programming and production. "With the help of Jane's influence and this global team of natural history and wildlife storytellers, our goal for this live event is to inspire, inform and reveal the wonders of the natural world to a new audience."
Over the course of the two-hour broadcast, viewers will witness the earth's greatest wildlife, shot by the world's greatest wildlife cinematographers: Bob Poole will travel to Ethiopia to capture hyenas in their natural habitat; National Geographic photographer Steve Winter, best known for his work documenting the cats of the Pantanal over the past 20 years, will give viewers an inside look at the ocelot, a rare and elusive cat; the celebrated wildlife cameraman and National Geographic Explorer Sandesh Kadur will focus on langurs, the Old World monkeys found in Jodhpur, India; and Sophie Darlington, who made her name filming big cats, will film the lions of the Masai Mara.
Additionally, National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence Dr. Robert Ballard, best known for his discovery of the RMS Titanic, will join the broadcast as he explores the depths of the oceans off the coast of California during one of his Nautilus expeditions.
Some of the locations EARTH LIVE will broadcast from include:
• Bracken Cave, Texas, where cameras will capture the 20 million Mexican free-tailed bats as they leave their subterranean cave;
• Churchill, Canada's beluga whale breeding grounds;
• Yucatan, Mexico, where cameras will share the busiest and noisiest time of year in a 15,000-strong breeding colony for flamingoes;
• Fiji, where strong tides powered by the moon pull nutrients up from the depths of the sea to fertilize the reef and create a perfect home for bull sharks;
• Masai Mara, Kenya, where cameras will capture prides of lions waiting for migrating herds to pass;
• Jodhpur, India, where troops of Hanuman langurs wake up from their overnight roosts in search of food; and
• Alaska, where cameramen and scientists will travel to the southeast coast in search of humpback whales to capture whale DNA with a specifically designed drone called the "snot-bot."
In the span of two hours, viewers will experience the adventure of a lifetime as they travel the world and witness how species respond to the powerful forces of nature in order to survive.
EARTH LIVE is produced by Bunim-Murray Productions, Berman Productions and Plimsoll Productions for National Geographic. Al Berman, Gil Goldschein, Andrew Jackson and Martha Holmes are Executive Producers.For National Geographic, Michael J. Miller is the executive producer; Kevin Mohs is vice president, production and development; and Tim Pastore is president of original programming and production.

Nonpathogenic Fungi As Biocontrol Agents of Seedling Root Crown and Vascular Wilt Diseases
Nonpathogenic and hypovirulent strains of fungi that are closely related taxonomically to plant pathogenic species have been reported to provide biological control of a number of pathogens, including species of Fusarium, Rhizoctonia, and Pythium. Competition by nonpathogenic strains for host plant nutrients, colonization of roots and infection sites to preclude the pathogen, parasitism of pathogen hyphae, and induction of host plant resistance are mechanisms through which these nonpathogenic strains achieved biological control (Sneh 1998).
Nonpathogenic Fusarium species (F. oxysporum and F. solani) provided control of Fusarium wilt of tomato
Figure 1 Effect of G. catenulatum, formulated as Prestop, on reducing root rot and damping-off caused by P. aphanidermatum on cucumber seedlings. The plant on the left received the biocontrol agent at seeding time followed by the pathogen 10 days later; the plant in the center received the pathogen only 10 days after seeding; the plant on the right is the uninoculated control. Photograph was taken at 28 days after seeding.

Photograph was taken at 28 days after seeding.
(Alabouvette et al. 1993; Fuchs et al. 1999; Larkin and Fravel 1998) through systemic induction of host resistance, and an increase in hydrolytic enzyme activity was reported in treated plants (Duijff et al. 1998; Fuchs et al. 1999). Induction of resistance by nonpathogenic fungi has also been reported to occur for binucleate Rhizoctonia species (Jabaji-Hare et al. 1999; Xue et al. 1998), P. oligandrum (Benhamou et al. 1997), and Penicillium oxalicum (DeCal et al. 1999). In plants treated with these biocontrol agents, induction of host defense responses, alterations of the plant cell wall, and enhanced expression of antifungal enzymes were reported (Benhamou et al. 1997; Jabaji-Hare et al. 1999; Xue et al. 1998). Further studies on the mechanisms by which these fungi elicit the host defense responses should provide interesting information on this group of biocontrol fungi. Formulations for biocontrol fungi such as binucleate Rhizoctonia species have been described (Honeycutt and Benson 2001).
3.3.1 Biotechnological Manipulations of Nonpathogenic Biocontrol Fungi
Techniques in biotechnology have been applied primarily to the nonpathogenic F. oxysporum strains that provide biocontrol of Fusarium wilt on a number of plant species. By creating strains expressing the marker gene ß-glucuronidase (GUS) through genetic transformation, the role of competition for root colonization between pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains could be elucidated (Eparvier and Alabouvette 1994). Nonpathogenic strains differed in their ability to colonize roots and to preclude the pathogenic strains, and the use of GUS-marked strains utilizing the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase promoter provided an estimation of fungal metabolic activity on the roots (Eparvier and Alabouvette 1994).
A strain of nonpathogenic F. oxysporum transformed with the ß-glucuronidase (GusA) and hygromycin B resistance (Hph) genes could be detected at levels as low as 1 ng of mycelia and estimates of fungal biomass on tomato roots were shown to be considerably higher compared to a plating assay method (Bao et al. 2000), indicating this was a sensitive and rapid assay for this biocontrol agent in planta. The colonization by the transformed strain of plant roots could be assessed in relation to the extent of colonization of a pathogenic strain of F. oxysporum (Bao and Lazarovits 2001).

Mazda's latest trademark is raising a lot of questions, as the Japanese automaker has secured the MX-6 moniker in Japan.
Filed on October 16, the document, which was discovered by AutoGuide, it refers to "automobiles and parts and accessories thereof".
Securing a nameplate doesn't necessarily mean that we'll see a new product. Automakers often reserve different monikers to prevent competitors from using them. Of course, there's a chance that Mazda might indeed be planning a new car, but only company insiders know what the deal is with the MX-6 and they haven't disclosed anything.
Also Read: Let's Compare The New 2019 Mazda3 To Its Predecessor
In all likelihood, a new MX-6 won't be rotary-powered, as the technology is still giving those in charge of the project a headache due to the stricter emission regulations. Plus, even if Mazda eventually launches a new rotary sports car, it will use the RX nameplate.
There are no plans for an electric sports car, either. Thus, enthusiasts can only hope for a two-door coupe, hopefully inspired by the RX Vision Concept, with a front-mounted ICE and rear-wheel drive.
The MX-6 used to be a front-wheel drive, two-door coupe produced by the Japanese firm in two generations. The first one was put together between 1987 and 1992, and the second one from 1991 until 1997. The original models were closely related to the Ford Probe, and didn't meet the success of the MX-5 Roadster. Mazda pulled the plug some 21 years ago and hasn't looked back at the nameplate since – at least until now.

HOLLYWOOD — TV station group Young Broadcasting posted a second-quarter loss of $3.8 million as soft advertising and higher operating costs undermined some revenue gains. The red ink compared with a profit of $734,000 in the same period last year.
Net revenue rose 34% to $100.2 million in the latest quarter, but operating expenses and other costs increased in the period.
"In spite of the well-documented current weakness in television advertising, in many instances our stations were still able to maintain or increase their market shares in the second quarter," chairman Vincent Young said. "As we look to the future, we believe we will benefit from the market positions we currently enjoy, an improved advertising environment and business opportunities which will accrue through deregulation."
Third-quarter dip foreseen
The New York-based broadcaster said it expects net revenue to decline 15%-18% over last year's third quarter. It declined to make a full-year forecast.
Young owns 12 television stations and the national TV representation firm Adam Young Inc. Six of the properties are ABC affiliates, three are CBS affils and two are NBC stations, with L.A.'s KCAL an independent.


text: Local celebrity in his own right, Greg Martin, owner and purveyor of Urban Bean Coffee reached out to us after admiring our work over the years at Norseman Distillery. Our 2017 Fall menu design specifically caught his eye due to the art nouveau-style leaf work. In our first meeting he mentioned his fondness for said leaves, and spoke of his potential desire for a floral based wallpaper design. After years of offering a beautiful, minimalist and primarily black and white color scheme, it had come time to inject some color into the space. After a strange turn of events, of all characters, Sammy Davis Junior and artist Kehinde Wiley came up, and the result of which turned into the mural you see here. The piece was indeed heavily influenced by Kehinde Wiley, a New York based portraitist who recently unveiled his official Presidential portrait of Barack Obama. We have adored his work for years, and wanted to create a tribute with a bit of a comedic spin. This absolutely joyful black and white photo which we found of Sammy, served as the perfect comic relief to pair with the quite traditional vine and flower pattern typically found in textiles and wallpaper. Greg and the entire staff at Urban Bean were such a joy to work with, and we invite you to stop by and grab a latté after saying hello to our man Sammy.

Zero Tep - Window Shopping
Over the past four months, my relationship with the Milwaukee/Wisconsin collective Noh Life has grown exponentially. I've released eight of my own tracks and seven collaborative tracks with the group, with no plans to stop anytime soon. In each of my releases, I've strived to construct vivid alternate realities, and frequently I even find myself getting lost in them.
With that being said, I feel that my favorite tracks from Noh Life were ones I could not only play in a club, but listen to at home. They were often beautiful, aggressively urgent tracks that drove your desire to not only move your body, but stimulate your mind as well.
So I set out to create something that embodied the spirit my favorite songs from the label, and it's called "Window Shopping". Thank you for supporting my music and a huge shoutout to the Noh Life fam. Visit our homepage here.

VantagePoint Software Now Forecasting Bitcoin and other Cryptocurrencies utilizing Patented A.I. Technology
Wesley Chapel, Fla., December 13, 2017 – VantagePoint Software, using patented Artificial Intelligence technology to predict stock market trends and trend changes made the official announcement today that traders can now use the software to forecast Cryptocurrencies.
As a result of the recent growth in popularity of Cryptocurrencies and the outpouring of requests from current VantagePoint Software users, the VantagePoint R&D team began focusing on adapting the Artificial Intelligence forecasting technology for Cryptocurrencies. Since 1991 VantagePoint has been able to consistently achieve over 80% accuracy in stocks and commodities due to the deep learning neural network technology that has been developed and refined over the past three decades.
After considerable time spent testing and adapting the artificial intelligence to Cryptocurrency data, VantagePoint Software has now been forecasting for Bitcoin, Litecoin and Ethereum for some time with the high level of accuracy and consistency that VantagePoint has been known to deliver for stock and commodity traders. But now that Cryptocurrencies have become more mainstream and futures contracts are now being traded on Bitcoin, the software company has decided to make these forecasts accessible through the VantagePoint software. Making sure traders and investors better understood what these Cryptocurrencies were, was the key to the decision to release these forecasts. The family-owned software company wanted to ensure legitimacy and a better understanding by the general public before releasing it to traders. "Here at VantagePoint we bring real, tangible opportunities that have been vetted and tested with Artificial Intelligence to traders and investors We are not interested in chasing fads and forecasting financial instruments because of what's popular. We have criteria for what we forecast for and Cryptocurrencies meet the criteria." said Lane Mendelsohn, Vice President of VantagePoint Software.
It's no secret that Cryptocurrencies are at an all-time high, and the profit potential is huge. VantagePoint's forecasting indicated earlier this year that these increases were imminent and while many still doubted the potential. Since the VantagePoint forecast Bitcoin has gone up 330%, Litecoin has gone up 467% and Ethereum has gone up 109%.
Due to the volatility of the markets, Cryptocurrencies can gain and lose value day over day. With VantagePoint, traders have the upper hand as they are equipped with the ability to forecast the trend direction and predict the next day's highs and lows before they happen. Even for those who are investing in these crypto currencies as opposed to trading need insight ahead of time as to when these crypto currencies may pull back and may be setting up to crash and knowing this information ahead of time with a high degree of accuracy is paramount.
It is uncertain what will happen over time for the virtual currency markets, but it does appear that there will be some dramatic movements in the Cryptocurrency market in 2018. Although it is not possible to predict these movements for the upcoming year, traders can get ahead of the curve when they utilize VantagePoint's proprietary Artificial Intelligence capabilities to predict the market strength and direction of the most popular Cryptocurrencies 1-3 days in advance with up to 86% accuracy.

What Size Image for Facebook
Page Profile
Just like Instagram, your Facebook Profile must have a square crop. The Photo or logo have to be 180 x 180 pixels or larger, although Facebook will scale it down to 160 x 160 pixels on your Page and also 32 x 32 pixels as the thumbnail across the system. Be sure your image functions well under these very small criteria.
Cover Photo
Due to the fact that Facebook can not make points easy for us, the facet ratio of your Facebook cover Photo will certainly show up different on different tools. The Photo will certainly appear 820 x 310 pixels huge (or a 205:78 proportion) on desktop computers as well as 640 x 360 pixels (16:9) on mobile phones. Attempt to create a picture that deals with both desktop computer and also mobile. Your cover Photo have to go to least 399 x 150 pixels huge.
The ideal dimensions for an in-stream Photo on Facebook is 940 x 788 pixels (which will then be scaled down to 472 x 394).
For the best results, develop your Photo to be 1920 x 1080 pixels large. This photo will after that be reduced to 470 x 174 pixels.
One last tip relating to social media graphics. We love Canva for creating impressive social media graphics. Not just do they make visuals style accessible to non-graphic designers, they give design templates for every single social media sites platform that are already scaled to the excellent measurements.
Make sure to pin or print our useful overview of see to it that you are optimizing your pictures on all social media channels.

Time to update the office tree
for the next upcoming holiday
Independence Day, July 4th
In addition to last years firecrackers and rockets
I added these red shiny balls
found at a garage sale.
The gold star bursts reminded me of "fireworks".
and a smaller size has gold stars
This past Christmas season I picked up these
blue icicles.
And my favorite addition, another garage sale find,
this "fountain" of silver with red & blue stars
I've used as a tree topper.
Hope you enjoyed this little holiday tree tour.
Have a happy and safe 4th.

Happy Friday Friends!! We are so excited for this weekend- and not just because this Saturday calls for 60 degrees! YES- you read that right!! I'm so excited because I have the weekend off- no babies to photograph at the hospital, no photoshoots or client meetings scheduled- just two entire days of no working! I'm so excited to be spending time with my family! This is going to be one of the last free weekends I have until after Easter, so to say I'm excited is a bit of an understatement! ;) Oh, but don't be too jealous- there's already talk of more snow next week. sigh. :/
Taking time off when you own your own business can be so difficult, but it's so important to take some time for yourself- and most importantly to me, for your family! I'm going to try my very best to unplug (haha easier said than done on my part!!) and enjoy this early Spring weather we're going to get! One of my big goals for 2016 is to schedule days off- and stick to it. This is one of the negatives that people don't really think about when they think of people owning their own businesses. When you work a typical 9-5 job, you get to clock out, head home, and not think about the work needing to be done when you get back in the office on Monday morning. A lot of times, I find myself using these "days off" to catch up on work, but for 2016 I'm going to be serious about recharging to avoid burnout! I know I'm not the only creative & small business owner that over-extends myself, says yes to way too many things, & stays up late when the creativity and motivation hits! I know, you guys, it's so difficult to take days off- to tell a client no, you don't have that day available- but I know in the long run, I will be so thankful for that scheduled time off!
Taking these breaks will make me a better photographer, friend, wife, and mom. I never want to look back at my life and be thinking about how often I worked and how much of her little life that I missed. So, dear fellow small business owner, I want to encourage you to take some time off! Schedule some unplugged, planned days off to spend with your friends and family. I promise you- you will not regret it!! And please, help keep me accountable too!! I know I'm going to need that accountability!
And, because I know that was a lot of words, here are some of my favorite photos from our family session with Lindsey Hinkley this past November. (I know- shame on me for not sharing until now!!)
Ashley Eiban Photography is a Wedding & Portrait Photographer based in Central Virginia- serving Lynchburg, Wintergreen, Charlottesville, Richmond, Roanoke, and surrounding areas. Available for travel world-wide- we LOVE destination weddings! Ashley Eiban is currently booking weddings and portrait sessions for 2016 and 2017 weddings.

With the first month of storage injection season now behind us, the weekly storage report from Energy Information Administration (EIA) shows U.S. natural gas stocks at about 850 Bcf higher than last year. While the surplus vs. 2015 has contracted from over 1,000 Bcf at the start of injection season April 1, it has a long way to go before the gas market is out of the woods, and prices are reflecting that. The CME/NYMEX Henry Hub contract for June delivery settled Wednesday at $2.141/MMBtu, down 68 (24%) from last year, and the balance-of-summer strip is priced at an average $2.408/MMBtu as of yesterday's settles, 48 cents (17%) lower than a year ago. Given the sheer size of the overhang at this point, the pace of the surplus contraction will be at least as important to price direction as the fact that it is contracting. Today we look at the various supply and demand factors that could either help or hinder the market to whittle down the storage surplus this summer.
This is Part 3 of our natural gas supply/demand and storage update series, "Carry That Weight." In Part 1 we recapped the 2015-16 winter supply/demand balance, which left the market with a record-high storage overhang by the start of the 2016 injection season (April 1 to October 31). In Part 2 we looked at what that overhang is likely to mean for this injection season: essentially that, given the size of the storage surplus, injections into storage will need to be consistently below what they have been historically in these months if the market is to prevent a storage capacity shortage (and further price discounts) by fall 2016. And that will require supply/demand to tighten relative to recent years, either due to lower supply or higher demand or some combination of the two.

I've started using a plugin for WordPress called SimpleTags to handle tagging for Technorati. It's pretty slick. For inline tags throw a <tag> around the word and it becomes a tag on publishing. If you don't want to tag inline, you can add <tags> around a comma separated list and they'll become tags.

Over at the American Spectator's blog John Tabin is calling Mitt Romney's joint appearence with Donald Trump to accept Trump's endorsement "Romney's Moronic Indulgence of Trump".
Phil Klein calls Mitt Romney's joint appearance with Donald Trump to accept the latter's endorsement "the biggest blunder of his candidacy." I'm not sure I'd go that far, but it's certainly up there. Consider that last time the effect of a Trump endorsement was polled, by Fox News in Spetember, it came out as a net negative: 31% would be less likely to vote for a Trump endorsee, only 6% more likely.What Mr. Tabin and Mr. Klein miss is that Donald Trump is capable of doing considerable damage to anyone who angers him. As LBJ famously explained his reluctance to sack J Edgar Hoover, "I'd rather have him inside the tent pissing out than outside the tent pissing in", having a land mine somewhere ahead of you that you might or might not step on one day is better than having a guided missile locked on to you and homing in for the kill.
Those who are working to re-elect Barack Obama are thrilled by the development, touting it on the @BarackObama Twitter account and in a blast email from the Democratic National Committee. Romney will most likely be the Republican nominee, and if Trump says something particularly incindiary, one can certainly imagine an attack ad using the footage of Trump and Romney. But even if this blows over and doesn't seriously hurt Romney, it's hard to see how it can possibly help.
Trump is fully capable of - among other things - running a third party candidacy for no other reason than to deny the GOP candidate the election in exactly the same way that Ross Perot did to George H.W. Bush.
Far better to have Trump on your side and feeling that he has a personal investment in getting you elected than hand him a perceived insult and have him dedicated to destroying you.

The 7 Top Things To Do In Pasadena, When You Don't Have Back Pain/
Does your back pain (or any pain for that matter) stop you from doing certain activities? Well, we here at HealthFit wanted to let you know that when you address your pain there's a bunch of fun activities in Pasadena waiting for you to conquer them!
(1) Walk/Jog around the Rose Bowl! The Rose Bowl is a beautiful venue set in Pasadena and has a great loop around it (approximately 3 miles) which usually has many residents out and about around it. It's a great way to get outside, improve your fitness and just meet some incredible people at the same time!
(2) Spend a day shopping outdoors at the lovely Paseo Colorado. There are many shops and eateries including: Yard House, PF Changs, Islands, BCBG MaxAzria, Bath & Body Works, DSW Shoe Warehouse and so many more. Make sure you build up that core and upper body strength to carry all those shopping bags!
(3) Conquer the mountain and hike at Eaton Canyon! Eaton Canyon is great as there are different levels of difficulty you can choose to conquer! Maybe start off with the bottom portion of the hike and work up to being able to make it past the bench lookouts all the way up to Heninger Flats. Walking on trails and uneven surfaces really challenges your stability and balance!
(4) Did you know about fitness stairs? There are staircases all over Los Angeles that many people have discovered as a great way to get out and get active. There's a staircase in our very own Pasadena at 420 Elmwood Drive Pasadena, CA 91105. Get ready for those hips and thighs to burn!
(5) Bowling is a great way to get friends and family together and lucky for you Pasadena has Bowlmor Lanes. Get a group together and head out for a fun filled day/night of bowling, arcade games and good eats. Did you know it actually takes a lot of core and lower body strength to generate the ultimate STRIKE?!
(6) Take some time and head over to the Pasadena Museum of History! It's dedicated to bringing the history, art and culture of Pasadena alive. (Not to mention it was in Beyonce's Formation video) Speaking of Beyonce, dancing is a great way to exercise and get that body moving!
(7) Okay, I admit this one isn't technically in Pasadena but it's right next door and a definite must-see! The Huntington Library houses many historical artifacts as well as a host of multiple themed gardens. It makes for a lovely afternoon of learning and taking in beautiful sights. The grounds are spectacular so make sure you have your sneakers on so you can visit all of them!

You may vaguely remember your high school chemistry class and something about a pH scale, lemons, baking soda, and battery acid. But how do we apply that high school chemistry class to your life today? PH stand for Potential Hydrogen and the scale we use indicates Alkalinity and Acidity. The scale begins at 0 Acidic (think battery acid) and ends at 14 Alkaline (think bleach and drain cleaner). Pure water is neutral, about a 7 on the pH scale. This is important because the pH of your water (or soil) determines what will grow in it as it effects what nutrients are readily available for uptake. Most plants prefer a very slightly acidic environment, about a 5.5 to 6.5 on our scale. Variation in either direction will cause certain nutrients to become unavailable to your plants. Do yourself a favor and test your water EVERY time. You want to test the pH levels after your nutrient solution has been added to the water, it's important to test AFTER the nutrients have been added as the nutrient solution will change the pH.
There are a couple ways to do this, from paper test strips which give you a reading by presenting a color that is matched to a scale, to pH pens that will give out a digital reading. Digital pH pens are the easiest method, especially since you will likely have to test multiple times as you try to balance it. You may notice that your water and nutrient reading is either acidic or alkaline every time and can then determine if you only need to purchase a pH Up solution or a pH down solution.
If you are not pHing your water, or are doing it incorrectly, your plants will tell you. If the pH is too low (too acidic), your plants will reflect an excess of manganese, aluminum, and iron, a deficiency of phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, and molybdenum, and if growing in soil – soil life will be inhibited, say goodbye to those beneficial microbes! If the pH is too high (too alkaline), calcium, iron, and phosphates will not dissolve in your water, and your plants will be deficient in manganese, phosphate, and iron, as well as copper, zinc, and boron.

Concerning Evil Spirits and "Internal Demons"/
My beloved spiritual children in Christ Our Only True God and Our Only True Savior,
[The Orthodox Christian Teaching about the Nature and Activity of Satan and his Demons, Our Responsibility for Our Choices and Action, and How we Struggle Against "Self-temptation" and Addiction.]
By Archbishop Lazar Puhalo
"...Let us see how the Apostle understood the last line of the "Lord's Prayer":
"Our Father in the heavens, let Your name be hallowed, let Your Kingdom come, let Your will come to pass on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread and forgive us our offenses as we forgive those who offend us, and do not bring us into trials, but "deliver us from the evil one" (St. Matthew 6:9-13, correct translation). "But let your 'yes' be 'yes' and your 'no' be 'no'; anything more "comes from the evil one" (St. Matthew 5:37). "Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, Who gave Himself for our sins to "deliver us from this present age of the evil one" (Galatians 1:34).
"But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen and "protect you from the evil one" (2 Thessalonians 3:3). "The Lord will "deliver me from every attack of the evil one", and will bring me safely to His Heavenly Kingdom" (2 Timothy 4:18). For a more complete understanding of the subject, read the lives of the Saints, especially the paterikon. The Saints have faced Satan, endured all his assaults and, with Christ's help and the strength of Divine Grace, have conquered him. In their lives, we truly see the meaning of Christ's command to us to pray for deliverance from the evil one.
Evil spirits are angels who became evil by their own free wills. As the prayers of the Church constantly teach us, Angels are bodiless spirits. Because of our carnal condition, we are unable to see evil spirits but, "we have a more certain word of prophecy, and you will do well to pay attention to it as to a light which shines in a dark place" (2 Peter 1:19). We cannot physically see the demons, but we can learn enough about them to defeat them. The source of this knowledge is the Holy Scripture which is lived, verified and made manifest in the life of the Holy Orthodox Church, and the experiences and teachings of our holy, God-bearing Fathers. From the beginning of the Holy Scripture, we encounter Satan as a truly existent individual. According to the testimony of the Book of Genesis (Old Testament), Satan entered into a serpent and convinced our first ancestors to violate God's Commandment (Genesis 3:1-19). The Holy Prophet Solomon affirms that the devil was the original cause of the sin which ruined all mankind: "God created man to be immortal and made him an image of His own eternity. Through envy of the devil, however, death came into the world" (Wis. 2:23-24). For this reason, Satan is called a "murderer from the beginning" (St. John 8:44).
From the book of Deuteronomy, we see that Moses was clearly aware of the existence of evil spirits. Enumerating the sins of the Hebrews, Moses says that they "sacrificed to demons, not to God" (Dt. 32:17), that is, as Saint John Chrysostom explains, they sacrificed to idols in which demons dwelt. The devil tormented the Righteous Job (Job 1:6-22); instigated David to "number Israel" (1 Chr. 21:1) and an evil spirit possessed Saul (1 Ki. 16:14-15 Orthodox Bible).
In the book of Kings (3 Ki. 22:19-23 Orthodox Bible) and in the book of the Prophet Zachary (3:12), the evil one is accorded the personal attributes of envy, falsehood, cunning and wickedness. In the first cause, he wanted to invite the King of Israel to violate God's Commandment, promising to become a spirit of falsehood in the mouths of Prophets and, in the second instance, he was calumniating the people of Israel. The Holy Evangelist John the Theologian binds the truth of the existence of evil spirits with the coming of the son of God into the world. "He that sins is of the devil, for the devils sins from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work" (1 John 3:8; cp Mt. 12:24-29; James 2:19). From these words, it follows that a renunciation of belief in the devil leads us to the renunciation of the truth of the Fall and, consequently, also a renunciation of the mystery of redemption. Indeed, why would Christ have come to earth if the evil one did not exist? In thus renouncing the mystery of redemption, we must reject all of Christianity. The whole Gospel history testifies that the Lord Jesus came to earth in order to destroy the works of the devil, to "deliver us from the evil one."
Jesus Christ told the Jews: "You are of your father the devil, and you will also do the works of your father. He was a murderer form the beginning" (St. John 8:44). Then, in positive teaching and in the explanatory parts of the Parables, Christ taught about the evil one and his angels as about real, individual beings who were striving to harm humanity. Describing the last dread judgment, Christ says: "Then He shall say to those on the left hand, 'Depart from me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels" (St. Matthew 25:41).
Christ pronounces this judgment on real, individual, totally sinful beings. It is quite clear from this that the evil one and his angels, for whom the everlasting fire is prepared, are real beings. Sinners inherit eternity in this fire by being followers of Satan. United with him, they are also united with his destiny. Christ the Savior Himself said that Satan desired to sift the Apostles like wheat (St. Luke 22:31). In other places of the Holy Gospel, we see cited the words of Jesus Christ about the existence of a whole kingdom of evil spirits, ruled by Satan, the malicious prince of this kingdom (St. Matthew 12:24-28), and Christ calls the evil one the "prince of this world" (St. John 12:31). How clearly did our Savior teach about the existence of evil spirits when He healed those possessed by demons. Never did He suggest that possession by demons was a natural disorder (St. Matt. 4:24; 8:16; Mk. 1:34; 7:29-30, for example). The Apostles, following Christ, also taught about the perniciousness of evil spirits and their ruinous influence on mankind. According to the Apostle, Christ took on our flesh so that, by His own death, He would deliver us form the power of "him who had the power of death, that is, the devil" (Hebrews 2:14). The Apostles also revealed that the demons are intelligent spirits (James 3:15) but evil (Acts 19:13). Being numerous (Rev. 12:7-8) they form their own dominion, at the head of which is Satan (Romans 16:20). Finally, in the "Lord's Prayer," He quite clearly taught us to pray, "deliver us from the evil one," asking for deliverance from the power and influence of a real, personal being.
The fact that evil spirits are real, individual beings is revealed to us through the lives of the great Ascetics who being illumined by the Holy Spirit, saw the true character of the evil spirits, fought with and, by their lofty, moral lives, defeated the demons and gained power to cast them out of others. This understanding is also taught by the Church's divine services and prayers. Thus, for example, in the eighth prayer before sleep, the Orthodox Christian prays to God: "Deliver me from the besetting presence of the devil…snatch me from the jaws of the pernicious serpent." In the Mystery (Sacrament) of Holy Baptism, the godparents are required; on behalf of an infant being baptized, to "renounce the devil and all his works and all his pride."
The Holy Scripture, therefore, clearly teaches that the devil exists as an individual spirit. And Saint John of Kronstadt says, "Stubborn unbelief in the existence of evil spirits is in itself actual demonic possession, for it bids defiance of Divine revelation; he who denies the evil spirits is a person already swallowed up by the devil (see 1 Peter 5:8) and sitting in darkness and the shadow of death, in no condition to behold the Sun of Truth."
Therefore, our Savior commands us to pray, specifically, "and deliver us from the evil one," and not "deliver us from evil."
(To be continued: Next: Characteristics of Evil Spirits)
Please note: Today, Christian clergy and bishops of other Christian confessions deny the existence of Satan, of evil, of sin, of Hell...and have opened themselves and their adherents to spiritual corruption, death and destruction. They claim to be 'all inclusive' and not 'exclusive'. What they 'include' are actions and life styles which are wicked and sinful. It has created "defective reasoning" and "confusion of thought". The adherents of their denomination who are alert and have the gift of discernment, run from that denomination and turn to the Orthodox Church.
The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God and Father, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.
Glory Be To GOD For All Things!
With sincere agape in His Holy Diakonia,
The sinner and unworthy servant of God
+Father George

"Northern Virginia" is more of a functional name than a clearly defined area. It consists of several counties and independent cities in the state of Virginia. It is a widespread region radiating southerly and westward from Washington DC. It is the most populated region of both Virginia and the Washington Metro area.
As of 2006, the U.S. Census estimates that there are approximately 2,432,823 people in Northern Virginia, which includes Clarke, Spotsylvania, Faquier, Warren and Stafford Counties, as well as the independent city of Fredericksburg.
Northern Virginia is the highest income region of Virginia and the most affluent region in the nation. The federal government is one of Northern Virginia's main employers and home to numerous government agencies, including the CIA Headquarters, the pentagon, Fort Meyer, Fort Belvoir, Marine Corps Base Quantico, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the U.S. Geological Survey. Government contracting is an important part of the region's economy and Arlington alone is home to over 600 federal contractors.
Northern Virginia, including Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax, Loudoun, and Prince William comprise a total population of 1,973,513 and is highly educated. 55.5% of its population 25 years or older holds a bachelor's degree or higher.
19 of the region's schools appear in the top 200 of Newsweek's America's Top Public High Schools. Although Northern Virginia contains a large portion of the commonwealth population, there are only a few colleges and universities in the region. George Mason University in Fairfax County is the most well-known and is the second largest university in Virginia.
Other higher education institutions include:
- Northern Virginia Community College
- Marymount University
- University of Northern Virginia
- University of Virginia

Facebook post 14 May 2017:
I am entering a new era. From what I can tell there are no artists who have an ISO9001 certified Quality Assurance system in place. Can you believe it?
So I aim to be the first.
The good thing about Quality Assurance is that it has nothing whatsoever to do with quality. I will be able to relax my standards and turn out lots of poorly-executed, bad taste paintings. As long as my processes and documentation and records all point toward that outcome then everything is fine. People and organisations can feel comfortable buying my paintings, secure in the knowledge that they are buying a quality assured product.
But, where to start? If you've bought any sort of appliance (in fact just about anything at all) in the last few years you will know that the first ten pages of the instruction manual are full of safety warnings (followed by three pages of disclaimers then half a page of incomprehensible instructions).
So, safety it is!
It seems that one of the most important things to do in your workplace is to make sure you have lots of warning signs everywhere.
So I carried out a safety audit of my studio and was alarmed to find that I didn't have a single warning sign on anything! And the place was just full of potential safety hazards and accidents waiting to happen! What makes it harder is that my art studio is also my music studio so I've also got electrical equipment (electrocution hazards), instrument leads (trip hazards), amplifiers (potential hearing damage) – and who knows what other dangers – at every turn. I don't know how I've survived this long!
Clearly lots of signs are needed. And I also need to write up lots of manuals of procedures and processes – with lots of sub-headings and bullet points and organisation charts and workflow charts.
I've got a massive job ahead of me. I probably won't have any time for painting pictures for a while. But Quality – and Safety – are surely more important. So here is my first sign …

Boy Trouble With Dallas?
I've liked a guy for a while now and his name is Dallas. He likes rapping and he likes me. I want him to like me alot lot but I don't think girls should be the one to ask boys out. Plus he's one year younger than me which might make his parents harder to convince. We keep in touch now, but he lives in Texas. Of course he'll probably have to stay in Hollywood for a while recording songs. But still, how could we possibly date?

Hmmm. Well, keep staying in touch that's for sure. Long distance relationships can be hard to handle as well, so watch out. And if you do ask him out he may laugh and say yes. You could maybe meet up somewhere. Or if RCA records allowed it(i kinda know where he works. i read your story all 10 chapters) you could do a duet together; like a music video. So just think about this and if he does ask you out say YES! Meeting up is a sweet move and it's totally romantic.
