I know it happens to you often, but these two actors are some of the most iconic for me because growing up in Central Asia did not allow us access to the latest movies coming out. My family just happened to be in the USA when "Love Story" came out, and it was one of the first movies I ever saw in an actual movie theater! Thankfully, there were just two main characters for me to remember:) So, it was pretty amazing when I saw your pictures of you with them, and read your piece. They both still look great, though I would say that Ali has stayed truly beautiful all these years. They truly are the generation that something like "Love Letters" was written for, now, because anyone about 10 years younger has probably written few letters to someone for many years. It just is not done any more.

Turns out we had seen something by Big Dance Theater last summer at Jacob's Pillow, noted the similarities, and then finally read the program and realized the reason why!

I really enjoyed parts of the production. Two questions I was left with include: 1) Were all the funky parts window dressing to shore up a couple of stories that would otherwise not be of interest? and 2) Are the dance/music/video bits simply random or do they have an organic relation to the play?

But congrats to Hartford Stage for doing something so off-the-beaten-Broadway path. I thought I was at TheatreWorks!

Moldy walls and clothing with an unpleasant smell are the two main consequences of having a poorly insulated closet. Avoid humidity in the cabinets is simple, if you detect the source of the problem.
To prevent moisture in closets, one must know the types of moisture that can be taken to detect what we are suffering and, most importantly, how to avoid appearing in our closets.
The humidity that arise in the home can have many causes. We may find a serious problem in building our home and have dampness in walls and inside cabinets. If so, we should call a professional for review, namely what is the cause and implement a solution.
In general, different types of moisture that may find are:
– Capillary: the porosity of the materials which have been applied in the construction of our housing. It causes the moisture to rise from underground.
– Leaks: lack of drainage or poor waterproofing. This case usually occurs when the wall is in contact with the outside.
– Condensation is a humidity of housing and focuses on the colder walls.
When any of these types of moisture is present in our home and affects wardrobes, especially, a number of measures to take to tackle the problem of moisture or at least minimize its consequences.
1. Properly insulate the walls of the closet. Line it inside with moisture painted paper and then apply one coat of sealer, is the most effective and practical way. There are transparent wallpaper or even imitating wood, ideal for aesthetics cabinets.
2. Ventilation. We need to open the cabinet doors every day a few minutes to air out. Occasionally it is good to clean the cabinet with soap and water and dry well with another cloth to prevent mold.
3. Prevention. It is advisable to put on the shelves and in the drawers bags of rice, chalk, charcoal or an empty coffee pot. Always being careful not to put it next to delicate clothing. You can also enter a aromatic leaves for the closet smell good and always pleasant. All these elements absorb moisture well, you just have to change from time to time to remain effective.
With a little tinkering, cleaning and basic prevention measures prevent moisture will get into the cabinets effectively. Also, keep your walls in perfect condition with the coverage of your home insurance MAPFRE, research now with one of our agents.

Even although it would be simpler for you to deal with just a single firm all through the entire software program improvement series, you may possibly be in a situation exactly where you just need aid with the engineering portion of the development. The following overview will introduce this structured procedure which improves probability of the healthcare device's success.

Using this along with other tools makes it possible for a skilled researcher to define specific troubles that can be solved through the solution innovation method. Simply because hardware is physical, extra steps are needed to determine the design of each and every person component and then test and refine it. In brief, the principal distinction amongst hardware and application development life cycles is the testing of not only person elements but the final assembly as nicely.
In the data method domain – computer engineering – this concern comes up when implementing a new data system. But a single need to always remember that Toyota's principal objective is expense reduction and each and every selection in Toyota is subjected to engineering financial evaluation. Test Marketing and advertising: The new solution is launched on a limited basis to test every element of the marketing and advertising and item before the complete launch. Shingo gave the opinion that organizations may use MRP right after performing fundamental improvement to the method as carried out by Toyota. This module will offer new ideas in the deformation of components under distinct loading conditions and extend the application of fundamental principles of strong mechanics to more sophisticated systems, developing on knowledge gained through the Introduction to Mechanical and Electronic Engineering module in the 1st year.

My time in Scripture this morning has been quite rich and yet poor. It has been quite telling of my heart and a challenge, once again, to my way of living. Here are a few notes from my time.
Everyone's heart who was willing, gave. There is a question of my heart and my WILLINGNESS to give of my plenty and my skills and talents. The question is less about whether I will DO it and more about whether my HEART actually desires to.
This may be the strongest point at which my heart was truly stricken. There is a great focus on generosity, but I cannot get past verses 13-15:
"but it is a question of a fair balance between your present abundance and their need, so that their abundance may be for your need, in order that there may be fair balance. As it is written, 'The one who had much did not have too much, and the one who had little did not have too little."
I cannot argue with the bluntness of scripture here as it relates to my considerable plenty compared to the poverty of the world. It is also a personal affront to how I spend my money. What am I wearing, and where does it come from? Is it made and traded in fair ways or in ways which more than demean but actually oppress the poor? What about the coffee I drink? The money I spend reflects my value or devalue of the poor and of God's command on my heart.
"The one with much did not have too much, and the one with little did not have too little."
vs 11-12: "Not that I am referring to being in need; for I have learned to be content with whatever I have. I know what it is to have little and I know what it is to have plenty."
As a child of single mom who had to live and raise her boys for a portion of life with food stamps and welfare, I also know what it is to have little, and I know what it is now to have plenty, but the question really is, "Have I LEARNED to be content in WHATEVER I have?"

Lyrics to Can't Let Go
Lyrics to the song Can't Let Go as recorded by Bryan Ferry.
Well I rush out blazin' my pulse is racin'
As the rain streams down my face
There's no turning back now to fight with fate
Outnumbered 'n out of place
They said go west young man, that's best
It's there you'll feel no pain
Bel-air's okay if you dig the grave
But I want to live again
Can't let go
There's a madness in my soul tonight
Can't let go
Must I ride it like the storm?
Can't let go
Will I run out of control tonight?
Can't let go
Until every trace is gone
It's a winding road from Cuesta Way down sunset to the beach
And Canoga Park is a straight safe drive too far out of reach
But now the headlights are flashin' by so fast
All directions seem the same
And the windscreen wipers keep a beat repeatin'
You can't let go again
What's in a name on the street tonight?
I'm only a face in the crowd
I'm all in the dark and afraid tonight
Nowhere to run or to hide
But I can't let go
Sometimes the world outside'll take you in with just a smile
And you so blinded with desire
A hundred sleepless nights have left me wasted and so cold
But I can take it I'm hangin' on
Can't let go
There's a madness in my soul tonight
Can't let go
Must I ride it like the storm?
Can't let go
Will I run out of control tonight?
Can't let go
Until every trace is gone
Can't let go, Can't let go, Can't let go,Can't let go
Can't let go, Can't let go, Can't let go, Can't let go
Can't let go
Can't Let Go

We had a quieter night this Friday, though still very busy. We began with some singing; the children raised the roof!Tiffies then showed us her 'melon lantern' in which the shape of a cross was carved. The candles inside were lit and the lights turned off to see if we could make the light go out by surrounding it in darkness. We found that this only made the light shine more brightly. The analogy, Jesus the Light of the world that no darkness can extinguish. As we closed in prayer, several of the children indicated that they wanted to ask Jesus into their hearts. We prayed together and there came a lovely presence of Jesus in the room.
Our activities followed, one of which was an arts and crafts station were children began making items for our up and coming Craft Fayre whilst others enjoyed some games.
We had a fun night in our student zone with some games and food. It was a chance to chill out and chat together and there was lots of laughter. We closed our happy time of fellowship together with prayer.

Innovative new card form factors revolutionize look, shape, and function
17 May, 2007
category: Contactless, Financial, Library
Andy Williams, Contributing Editor
Whether in the form of a football, a brand logo, or a keychain-ready miniaturization, different card shapes are battling the traditional 'CR80′ or 'ID1′ format for market share. Even watches, cell phones, and key fobs are joining in the game. But as long as ATM machines and many mag strip readers are geared for only one card shape, the common 3.370″ x 2.125″ rectangular form factor will continue to maintain its unimaginative grip on card users.
Still, the rapid growth in contactless technology has freed card makers from being locked into a single standard card shape that's been around since the first credit card was invented. The first modern day charge card was issued in the 1920s by oil companies to give their customers a convenient way to pay for gas. According to Wikipedia, the first credit card for general purchases besides oil was likely the Diners Club in 1950. The first bank-supported card didn't come along until the late 1950s with BankAmericard (now Visa) and Master Charge (now MasterCard) a few years later.
With contactless technology, you no longer need to worry about swiping a card's mag stripe through a reader, sometimes more than once to get a successful read. A simple tap will do, and this feature has given marketers free rein to develop new kinds of more durable and convenient cards and fobs, both two- and three-dimensional.
Rahul Gadkari, Financial Services Marketing Manager for cardmaker Gemalto North America, said the company shipped some five million contactless cards just in the first six months of 2005, shortly after the contactless phenomenon took hold.
"We started with regular ISO (card) form factors that you see now with regular mag stripes. It's still the predominant form factor because it works in ATMs, (and) fits in wallets, Mr. Gadkari said. "It's a legacy device, and at the same time something people are comfortable with."
He believes that when Visa developed its mini credit card, things began to change in card design. The mini card was made durable enough to allow a hole to be punched through it for use on key chain. "We make a lot of mini cards today," said Mr. Gadkari.
"With pure contactless cards, we are free to use any dimensions. It makes payment easier, and there are many different form factors possible," said Hans Heusmann, Contactless Product Manager for Giesecke & Devrient (G&D), one of the world's largest card manufacturers. "That's why it's difficult to explain what's out there. It depends on customers and what they want."
While bank and card issuers are leading the way with different card form factors, Mr. Heusmann added that for the manufacturers themselves, "there's quite a bit of investment necessary to bring out a three dimensional form factor."
Gemalto also produces what Mr. Gadkari calls, "our two-dimensional card form factors covering different shapes." He adds, "Some cards are shaped like a donut, a football, soccer ball or basketball. Those are usually contactless." But designers haven't stopped there. "Beyond that we also saw some requirements from banks and issuers who wanted a three dimensional fob or token device, something people are used to getting for authentication devices. Banks said they wanted these devices to be just like a contactless payment card," said Mr. Gadkari.
Gemalto works with "some of the leading issuers" to develop different fob form factors. "We have some prototypes done and we're working with some issuers who have provided us with their marketing design," he continued. An issuer in Asia wanted a watch to be a contactless payment device. "We worked closely with MasterCard to come up with a watch which can be used as a payment device," he said.
It's obvious that, with contactless technology, form factor rules have gone out the window. "We can be very creative," said Mr. Gadkari. Besides watches, "you now can have wristbands (used mainly at swimming or ski resorts) that are contactless devices, basically more like a prepaid device," he said. "They reduce time at the concession stands, speed up their concession stand payment experience, and (visitors) get more satisfaction."
With watches or wrist bands, "there's always a discussion about the value of the form factor," said Andreas Johne, G&D's EMV production manager. "You have to look at how it will be used, where you will present the key fob. Will you present the complete key ring when you make a payment? Most people are not willing to present a key ring at time of sale. A watch or wrist band isn't really convenient."
Those issuing contactless fobs, "have to undergo Visa and MasterCard approval, an expensive and lengthy process," said Mr. Johne. "That's why you don't have too many different form factors."
The other consideration, said Benoit Guez, VP of Smart Cards and International Sales for Colorado-based CPI Card Group, is just how many key fobs one person is likely to carry around? "I don't want five key fobs in my pocket," he said.
Marketing gimmick or legitimate innovation?
So are alternate form factors simply a marketing gimmick? Mr. Johne doesn't believe in producing form factors "just to have them." He adds, "We're willing to cooperate with our customers and to fulfill their requirements." For example, a bank might have a form factor in the shape of its logo, or a car manufacturer with a fob shaped like a car. "Our experience is that banks are reluctant (to develop new form factors). But non-banking industries have used form factors successfully," he added.
"Imagine," said G&D's Heusmann, "that McDonald's could issue its own McDonald's PayPass card on a fob in the shape of a hamburger. You're giving your customers a payment device – it could be a debit card, credit card, preloaded. There are several possibilities," all now feasible in today's card form factor world.
"You need to make (the fob) more of a marketing tool rather than a gimmick," insisted CPI's Guez. "It's not going to replace a CR80 card. In Hong Kong 15 million people are using CR80-style cards for transit. They don't need a fob."
There's another interesting problem, particularly for banks, said Mr. Heusmann. When a bank issues a regular-sized credit card, it's mailed to the customer. But if it's a fob, "banks must invest in different machinery to personalize them." When they want to send the fob to the card holder, it can't be sent through the normal channels as economicaly. "G&D has different solutions for this. For example, instant issuance. The bank clerk can personalize the fob directly in front of the customer," issuing the fob immediately.
Yet, while many of the different card shapes carry the contactless chip and antenna, they can still operate with just a mag stripe to be read at any POS system equipped with a handheld reader.
While marketing promotions such as the FIFA World Cup event (with soccer ball shaped fobs or cards) are some of the impetus behind varying form factors, for banks it's simply to try to, "differentiate themselves from others," said Mr. Gadkari. "Anyone doing contactless was looked at as having a cool device. Prior to that, the maximum differentiator banks had was in the printing on the card," such as how bright it was, perhaps a hologram, or the bank's raised logo. He continued, "They had stretched that look and feel as much as they could. That credit card is the true brand disclosure for the issuer. You want to make sure their debit or credit card is top of wallet because most carry six to seven cards, yet they usually only use one," he added.
"What contactless did was make those cards top of wallet. If consumers liked it, they would keep using it," said Mr. Gadkari. But now, since many banks have jumped on the contactless bandwagon, banks are looking at newer differentiators. "You're now talking out of wallet concept."
Creating a new type of card isn't something that's done overnight. "With fobs, since they're so closely tied to brand exposure, they have to be very specific to each bank," adds Mr. Gadkari. "Since these are technology devices, they also need to be certified. We can make any shape or form, we just want it to be robust enough to house a chip and antenna."
With more and more unusual shapes and sizes for contactless cards being created and issued, you may soon begin to ask yourself, "What is in my wallet?"

For a country that can create its own currency there is never any necessity to default.
Most of the posts I have written about austerity have been aimed at countering the idea that in a recession you need to bring down government deficits and therefore debt. But what if you accept all that (you are anti-austerity). Why should you care about debt at all? Why do we have fiscal rules based on deficits? Why not spend what the government needs to spend, and not worry that this resulted in a larger budget deficit?
The story often given is that the markets will impose some limit on what the government will be able to borrow, because if debt gets 'too high' in relation to GDP markets will start demanding a higher return. You can see why that argument is problematic by asking why interest rates on government debt would need to be higher. The most obvious reason is default risk. But for a country that can create its own currency there is never any necessity to default.
Being anti-austerity does not mean we can forget about debt completely, as long as we are using interest rates rather than fiscal policy to control demand.

Boise & Garden City
Boise man held in Nevada in Amber Alert incident; his daughters are back in Boise
Boise detectives search home of Amber Alert suspect
Lester and Kathy Porter were hiking southeast of Eureka, Nev., on Thursday when an unoccupied pickup sped by them in reverse with its cab aflame.
Lester called out, asking if everything was OK. A man stuck his head out of the bushes and calmly replied, "Yes."
"He was way too calm," Kathy Porter said. "We immediately knew something was wrong, so we left."
What they reported to authorities became details of an Amber Alert four days later. The man was apparently Joshua Dundon of Boise, whom police say in the middle of a custody case picked up his daughters from school, drove them about 350 miles south and went into the mountains east of Eureka after setting his truck on fire.
Jaylynn, 6 and Madison, 7, were recovered late Monday after Dundon — barefoot and cold, seeking refuge — showed up at a ranching family's home, asking for water. They were taken for treatment at a Boise hospital, where they were reunited with their family, Williams said.
Dundon, 29, is now held on $5 million bond, Eureka County Sheriff Keith Logan said in a mid-Tuesday press release. Boise police said he is charged with two counts of felony child custodial interference.
No Nevada charges were pending Tuesday afternoon, but the case is still under investigation by Logan's office and the federal Bureau of Land Management, the sheriff said.
It's unclear how soon Dundon could be returned to Idaho, Boise Police spokeswoman Haley Williams said. Nevada authorities could seek various charges there, including arson for the pickup truck.
"Prosecutors will probably work out all the rest of the details between who charges and what crimes happened where," Williams said. "There's a lot of things the prosecutors' offices ... still have to work out."
Dundon was taken Monday night to a hospital for treatment. After he's released, he's expected to be booked into the Washoe County Jail in Reno, Williams said.
Madison and Jaylynn were found in a mountainous area after their father arrived at a nearby rancher's home, barefoot and cold, seeking refuge, said .
The girls were taken for treatment at a Boise hospital, where they were reunited with their family, Williams said.
Vera Baumann is the owner of the Eureka, Nev., ranch that Dundon approached. When he was spotted around 5:30 p.m. Monday, Baumann's husband, Jim, 72, went to talk with him. Meanwhile, Baumann grabbed a 12-gauge shotgun and notified the sheriff's office, suspecting it was the wanted Boise man.
Dundon appeared very frail and sickly, Baumann said. He was shoeless, had cut-off sweatpants, a camouflage hoodie and no shirt.
"He said he was thirsty and wanted some water," she said.
Her husband came in the house and confirmed that the stranger was Dundon. Authorities arrived soon after, and Dundon surrendered without incident. She said Dundon gave officials information on how to find his daughters.
Deputies, community members and members of Eureka County emergency medical services and search and rescue, the Eureka Volunteer and Diamond Valley fire departments, the Nevada Division of Investigation and BLM rangers searched a 4-mile area around the ranch where Dundon said he left his daughters.
Searching in rain, resuers found the girls under a tree at about 7 p.m. They were carried out of the rough terrain, Logan said, and examined by EMS personnel before being flown to Boise for treatment.
"The girls were incredibly strong and showed great courage to survive in the conditions they faced," Logan said.
If they had not been found before dark, the girls would have faced spending a night in the cold by themselves.
"We were thrilled with the news that they had been found. It was a scary situation there," Williams said.
The pursuit began after the children were taken Wednesday. Dundon and the girls' mother had joint custody during the pending court case, according to Boise police.
The mother filed the custody case in January. Dundon later filed a counterclaim, and a family intake screening had been scheduled for Friday, two days after Dundon and the girls went missing.
Dundon checked the girls out of their elementary school on Wednesday. He told witnesses that he was taking them camping near Arrowrock Reservoir, according to police.
A day later, near Eureka, the Porters were out for their walk near Richmond Springs and heard a gunshot.
The Porters did not have their cell phones, so they ran down the hill as quickly as they could to notify authorities after their encounter with the truck and Dundon. As they were leaving, they heard a young child crying and the man tell the child to be quiet.
Just as they got to the bottom of the hill, the town's fire alarm went off and the volunteer fire department raced up the hill to put out the truck fire. By the time they were done, it was too dark to go searching for the man.
Because of the truck's condition, it took until Monday morning for investigators to dismantle it and confirm its vehicle identification number.
Logan and his deputies found multiple sets of footprints in the area, and several used ammunition casings at the scene. They also stumbled upon Dundon's personal effects, including survival gear and weapons "hidden away in the woods" nearby, he said. Aerial searches had found no immediate sign of the family, and the sheriff feared an escalation.
"He's prepared for, based on the amount of ammunition he has, something greater than we already are dealing with," Logan said Monday afternoon.
Authorities believed Dundon may have had a small dirt bike or motorcycle with him in the truck, but it's not clear if he got access to any other vehicles.
Boise police thanked Logan and his department for their work that led to finding the two girls and taking their father into custody.
"We're very grateful for the hard work that they put into it. They were really 'Johnny on the spot' and had great investigative techniques down there and were able to really do a good search that led to a rescue and recovery," BPD's Williams said.
Back in Boise, police walked in and out of Dundon's home Monday evening in a cul-de-sac off of Granger Avenue and Mitchell Street, passing a camper parked in the driveway.
Mark Scheithe lives nearby and said he walks his dog past the home at 6 p.m. every day. He talked about his interactions with Dundon — including the saga of Dundon buying the camper, a lemon — and said he was surprised to see Dundon on the news regarding the Amber Alert.
"It doesn't make any sense," Scheithe said. "He seems like a responsible guy. He seems like a great father."
Nicole Hurley has lived across the street from Dundon since the end of March. She distinctly remembered the last time she saw him, she said, because Dundon's four-door, large pickup was loaded with stuff, including kids' bikes.
She thought to herself, "Dang, he must be going to have a good time."
Hurley said her 9-year-old daughter plays with Dundon's kids. She was hopeful that he wouldn't hurt the girls.
"He didn't seem like the type of guy who would harm his kids," Hurley said.
Christopher Grow co-owns Capitol Concrete Construction LLC with Dundon. Grow hadn't seen nor heard from him in a week, something that Dundon had never done before.
"I'd like to know where he is, too," Grow said.
The Amber Alert stated Dundon was known to use illegal drugs and had threatened multiple times before to harm himself.
Public court records list a few past convictions, including misdemeanor possession of a controlled substance in 2008 in Canyon County and misdemeanor driving under the influence in 2009 in Ada County.
Cynthia Sewell and Kristin Rodine contributed.

Hi! My name is Aris and I'm the blogger behind Sailing into Second! I'm a 3rd grade teacher who loves to scrapbook, cook, and share organizational tips on my blog. I know that teachers are limited on resources and time, so I specialize in creating engaging lessons on the go!
Staying organized is how I manage to teach by day and be a teacherprenuer by night! My Erin Condren planners are some of the most important tools I use for both. They not only keep me from missing important deadlines, but each have such cute designs that will make you want to plan as soon as you get your hands on one!
My teacher planner is packed with helpful stickers, checklists, grading sheets, colorful quotes/doodles and more. This teaching tool will definitely help simplify each week of lesson planning. For a sneak peek at this year's upcoming Teacher's Lesson Planner, check out EC's recent blog post here! (They will be available to purchase May 3rd.)
Another EC organization tool I love is my LifePlanner™, which is critical to keep track important dates and deadlines for teacher products, meetings or blog posts.
I pride myself in being organized at school, too. I feel that an organized classroom sets the tone to help the whole class run smoothly! One way I like to do this is by using these copy clips with my parent volunteers. I just pin these onto my master copy and done! All the directions needed are right on the pin. No post-its or pieces of paper with directions are necessary. And the best part is that they are reusable and last ALL YEAR LONG! Genius, I tell you! I even write my copy code on the back of the clothespin so they have it on hand.
How do you stay organized in the classroom? I'd love to connect with you! You can find me on Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest and Periscope too.

After a sold out NZ Premiere, The team at Paddle for the North are back with a second screening!
Come celebrate the 5-year adventure to create Paddle for The North. Join Directors Simon Lucas & Cinematographer Scott Sinton and the team at Sitka NZ for the screening of the award-winning film and a Q & A of the trip and film-making.
Deep in the Canadian North, six young guys embarked on an epic adventure – to explore some of the most remote and untouched rivers in the world. Four Canadians, two Kiwis, two dogs (Zephyr & Taiger), three boats and two hundred pounds of camera equipment on a 63-day mission – it was always going to be a mighty test of endurance, determination, and friendship.
But beyond the swarming mosquitoes, technical challenges, and physical hardship, what they
didn't expect was the impact of the stories from one First Nations family. This chance encounter introduced them to people so tightly tied to the land and the river that they live on, and showed the team, that the Peel Watershed debate, is not just about protecting the environment, but also a way of life.
A boys-own adventure turns into a mission to truly discover the secrets of the north and show the world why some places are worth preserving.

Laurie had asked me to start my day at her parents house in Summerside, and take photos of her and her girls getting ready, but I had other plans, I thought it would be nice to catch Philip and his guys at the Humble Barber where they were getting a hot shave. Knowing their schedule, I knew about the time Philip would be getting in the chair, so I showed up there just after that. Sure enough, there he was, laying back with a sharp knife against his neck. Don't worry, his groomsmen talked him down and he let the barber finish the shave ;).
When I got to see Laurie, she didn't seem to have an ounce of anxiety about the day, she was that happy, smiling, exuberant person I think her family and friends always know her to be. Talking to her, she was just so excited to be marrying Philip that she could barely contain herself. That is NOT the reason her wedding dress wouldn't close though. A metal eyelet at the top of the back of her dress was broken before she even put it on. Luckily, right next door was a perfect solution. Her neighbour actually works on wedding dresses, so she popped over and fixed the dress in about a minute. I think we spent longer brainstorming ways to fix the dress than she actually took to fix it, and it was done better than the original.
With a mini crisis averted, we went over to the church for the ceremony. The day was a hot one, and that church was like an oven inside. I could see sweat dripping down Philip's neck from the back of the church, yet when Laurie made her appearance at the end of the aisle, it was tears, not sweat which rolled down Philip's face. I swear, these two are just so in love, it's awesome to see, you'd never question of they had found the right person for each other.
I think half of the guests had heat stroke, but the ceremony was beautiful with some friends adding music to up their ceremony game to another level. I particularly liked the Jason Mraz 'A World With You' that was sung. As we stepped outside, I think the temperature felt about 15° cooler, and it was glorious. We powered through some family photos and then hopped on the limo bus from limo services by Ultimate Town Car for our photo excursion, finally the airport transfer bangkok was successful.
Our first stop was a canola field where just Laurie and Philip (and a helper or two) jumped out with me for some photos. I wanted a bit of a higher angle so I ran back to the bus and grabbed a cooler to stand on. I love the yellow of the canola fields on PEI. It wasn't far up the road that we found our second photo location. It was a red dirt road at the top of a steep hill. I think we all had visions of the wedding party hopping out to push the bus up the hill, but it slowly managed to make it to the top. I really liked the tunnel like feel we had on that road, it reminded me of Andrew and Ciara's wedding I shot in Ireland 2 years ago.
Our next stop took us to the beach where Philip and Laurie had done a little leg work the week before. They had found a house which had a staircase down to the beach to save a lot of walking down the beach to a good location. They left a note at the house asking if they could use the stairs, and the homeowners called them back to say it was alright. We got a little lucky at the beach as there weren't as many people there as normal, and the sun had a bit of light cloud come in to cover it. The family photos were done without shoes. That would be a first in my experience, I've never had to remind someone to remove their flip flops. Sunglasses for sure, but never footwear.
I sent everyone but Philip and Laurie back to the bus and we hung around for a few photos of the two of them. The girls from Tiny Town Media, who did the videography, did a few setups as well, and we all got some good images. Back in the bus, I think it would be appropriate to call it a party bus, rather than a limo bus, as loud music and dancing were complemented by champagne and beer. We got back to the reception a little late, but no-one seemed concerned, and it didn't matter, the dinner never starts without the bride and groom.
After a little mingling, we arranged everyone outside in front of the 'Shipyard' where the reception was being held, for a group photo. Then we sent all the guests inside to get the dinner underway. During dinner, they had a game setup to make Philip and Laurie kiss because, you know, everyone finds clinking the glasses obnoxious. The game they had was a custom Plinko game (like from 'The Price is Right') with various types of requirements at the bottom such as 'show us' where the guests needed to show the couple how to kiss.
The dinner ended with some speeches with some great stories, some emotional, some funny (hilarious) and that was followed up by a cool video. A request was sent out to some of the guests at the wedding, for marriage advice. I think they said they wound up with hours of footage, but they edited it down to under 10 minutes and Surprised Philip and Laurie with the footage. After that all wrapped up, we got down to the dancing. The dance floor filled up immediately and was still full when I left.
The day was beautiful and Philip and Laurie were surrounded by the best people to celebrate their day. So many laughs, so many tears, so much love, would be the best way to sum everything up. I hope at least some of that shows through in the photos.

This 'Mango Gang' chef helped elevate Miami cuisine. Here's what's cooking at his new Wynwood restaurant
Celebrity chef Norman Van Aken has returned to Miami (and he's chosen Wynwood!) to open Three, a multi-faceted space that includes a fine dining restaurant, a rooftop bar and a soon-to-be-opened cooking school.
Known as the founding father of New World Cuisine, Van Aken has partnered with hospitality veterans Susan Buckley and Candace Walsh to oversee operations. The young new chef de cuisine touching every dish is Miami's Miguel Massens, whose background includes the groundbreaking Napa Valley restaurant The French Laundry and Spain's Arzak, consistently named among the best restaurants in the world.
The space
The dining room of Three in Wynwood.
A handsome dining room outfitted in blue velvet chairs, a mosaic tile bar, a 10-seat chef's counter and a striking Frida Kahlo portrait by the artist Ashley Longshore.
You'll come here with
Someone looking for a refined dining experience.
Stay tuned for
The cooking school will feature Van Aken and his wide net of culinary contacts, who drop by for cooking demonstrations, seminars and tastings.
Be prepared to eat
Van Aken's elevated Floridian cuisine — the culinary guidepost from which the chef hangs a variety of ethnic influences, from Caribbean to Latin to Asian. But since Van Aken is a student of world cuisine, constantly being inspired by his travels and interactions, we get Senegalese-inspired snapper (no doubt inspired by his pastry chef Mame Sow who is Senegalese) and a Vietnamese-style grouper.
Three is also one of a handful of South Florida restaurants to offer only a fixed price menu: a three-course menu ($60) with an option for dessert and cheese at an additional cost, and a four-course menu ($75) also with dessert and cheese at an additional cost.
Dinner starts with homemade bread accompanied by Vermont butter studded with spices and maple syrup.
Then it's on to bites of wahoo tiradito in an aji amarillo sauce or a Thai garden salad with a tamarind-peanut dressing. Tempura squash blossoms are accompanied by brown butter honey and the cracked conch chowder is a Van Aken specialty with a heady broth made with saffron, coconut milk and oranges.
Larger mains include a wood-grilled beef striploin, squid a la plancha, a grouper in charred banana leaf with kaffir lime red curry and roasted duck with Anson Mills grits.
Pastry chef Sow (The Cecil, New York) brings her Senegalese background to desserts such as the Pain de Singe, an olive oil cake made with cream from the baobob fruit, served with honey labneh ice cream.
The chocolate mousse comes with a cashew-coconut praline while the chocolate custard is topped with plantain ice cream.
Bottom line
Florida chef Norman Van Aken has planted his flag in Wynwood with an ambitious new project.

Celebrate USA/
Not only is the 4th of July a great day to celebrate our wonderful country, but it's also a holiday and we get the day off work. Woot Woot.
I have to say getting a Wednesday off was a bit random, and sort of threw me off a bit, but hey I'll take the day off. And it was a lovely day at that. The best part, I got to sleep in. Ahh, sleep.
Josh and I had a pretty low key 4th. We went for a walk at the Arboretum in the early afternoon. Then later in the afternoon I tested my whoopie pie recipe. Yes, whoopie. I am entering into a bake-off competition on Tuesday (more to come on that).
Then for dinner we BBQ'd some hot dogs, hamburgers, and corn. And enjoyed that with some juicy watermelon. Can a meal get any more American? Yes, add whoopie pie for dessert!
The day ended with a walk up Queen Anne hill to view some fireworks. Hurrah for America!

I think we should make a release soon - instabilities related to Hadoop split are mostly gone now, and we need to endorse the new architecture more officially... The "adaptive fetch" and "scoring API" functionality are the top priority for me. While the scoring API change is pretty innocuous, we just need to clean it up, the adaptive fetch changes have a big potential for wrecking the main re-fetch cycle ... ;) We could do it in two ways: I could apply this patch and let people run with it for a while, fixing bugs as they pop up - but then it will be another 3-4 weeks I suppose. Or we could wait with this after the release. -- Best regards, Andrzej Bialecki <>< ___. ___ ___ ___ _ _ __________________________________ [__ || __|__/|__||\/| Information Retrieval, Semantic Web ___|||__|| \| || | Embedded Unix, System Integration http://www.sigram.com Contact: info at sigram dot com

On the road now; new finds will post this fall!
Hallmarked "Apachito," presumably Joe Apachito, whose style is consistent with this striking work. This squash is NICE. It looks nice and it feels nice. You may have noticed by now if you've been eyeing squash blossom necklaces for awhile, that they are steadily going up in price at an alarming rate. And, the old substantial ones like this are just plain disappearing. Get one from somewhere while you still can. But don't buy a lightweight smaller-sized overseas knock-off! Those have been showing-up on EBay recently. Choose wisely from whom you buy.

How to Understand Text Labels
You may have seen text labels mentioned in an analysis warning such as this one:
Or you may have encountered unexpected results in an analysis or graph such as seen here:
In STATISTICA, text data can be stored either as text or with text labels. When text data is entered in a spreadsheet, each unique text string can be assigned a numeric code. So the data are stored both as a number, which is hidden, and the text we see. In this article, we will discuss what text labels are and some of the benefits and common questions associated with text data and the use of text labels.
What Are Text Labels?
Create a new spreadsheet and enter some text in the first cell. When you press ENTER, you are prompted to designate how this text should be treated. The last two options are to Enable Text Labels and Convert to a text only variable.
Select the Enable Text Labels option button, and click OK.
Select the Data tab, and in the Variables group, click Text Labels to display the Text Labels Editor for variable 1. Here we can view the numeric associations for the text entered.
In the global options of STATISTICA (Options dialog box, Navigation/Defaults tab), you can customize the start point for numeric associations for text labels. By default, 101 is the start point. So, while in the spreadsheet we see the text Apple, this cell is also associated with the number 101.
Some of the benefits to this text-to-number association are:
- Ordinal data can be represented by numbers that show their order as well as text values that have more meaning. For example, enter high, medium, and low stored as 3, 2, 1 respectively. Now their natural order is preserved, but also the more descriptive text is present, too. The variable with text labels can be analyzed either as categorical or continuous.
- Easy data entry. The numeric associations can easily be modified and become a shortcut in data entry, i.e., when typing in the data, I can type in 1 and that value will automatically show Low from my text labels.
Common Questions Associated with Text Labels
Following are answers to common questions from STATISTICA users when text labels are employed in their data.
When a variable is selected for analysis as a continuous variable (in basic descriptive statistics for example) and that variable has text labels, the following warning dialog box is displayed.This does not mean the analysis can't proceed. It simply brings to your attention the fact that the analysis you are about to perform may be suspect. Consider the previous example where 1 to 3 represent low to high. We can compute a mean, standard deviation, etc., on this data because the numbers 1 to 3 are used in the mathematical formulas. This warning dialog box prompts you to examine if this analysis makes sense with the data you have selected. If so, select the option to continue. If not, you can further explore the variables containing text labels with the Scan Spreadsheet option.
In numeric data, suppose you inadvertently typed in some text, or on import, perhaps the row of variable names were incorrectly read in as the first row of data. Now, a text label and number combination is used in this column. Deleting the offending case is only one step in fixing this issue. The text label, although not used, is still there. This will cause the warning dialog above to be displayed in analysis. The software does not know that the text label was a mistake. Using the Text Label Editor, the unwanted text label can be removed.
Another potential problem stemming from accidental text labels is unexpected text popping up in your numeric data. Because of a data entry or import error, a number is assigned a text label. Now, when that number naturally occurs in the data, the number is hidden by the unwanted text label. The root cause of the issue and the fix are the same, but the symptoms are different.
One final possible symptom is unexpected values in graphs and analyses.This plot shows what happens when numeric data, on a scale of 0 to 1, are plotted in a histogram, but one case has an unexpected text label. The numeric value associated with the text in this graph is the default 101. The data look skewed, as a very extreme outlier is present. This is simply a data entry error that is masked by text labels. Using the Text Label Editor, you can further explore this error.
When properly understood and used correctly, text labels are a good tool for data storage. This understanding of the way text labels work can help all STATISTICA users to improve their data integrity.

A little black dress is a staple that every woman should own. You can see my love for LBD here, here, and here. But sometimes even a lbd needs a little sprucing up with some color. That's why this dress is amazing. This little cocktail dress brings in the prettiest shades of pink, green, and blue, through a delicate thread embroidery pattern. I love the fit and flare silhouette (great for every body shape) and the little collar detail makes it extra cute! PS this dress is $26! I'm wearing a size large and am usually a size 6/8 in dresses.

Gardening Project…CSPE Students/Parents/Lusk Gardening Centre
1A CSPE students along with their Teacher, Ms. O'Donnell are undertaking a "Grow your Own Vegetables" project. A number of their Parents have volunteered to help out with this project. On Thursday 14th April, interested Parents came into the school for an Information Coffee Morning. Ms. O'Donnell met with them and outlined what the students were planning to do. Afterwards the Parents were invited into their children's CSPE class where they heard presentations from the students on the gardening project. On Monday 25th April, Parents and Students began the task of planting fruit and vegetable plants outdoors. We were delighted to have Gary Lusk from Lusk Gardening Centre, Killyon come along on the day to talk to the Parents and the Students. He gave them tips on planting their crops and showed them some demonstrations on planting. This project will continue until the end of the school year. It is hoped that we will do a gardening project on a bigger scale when we move into the new school. It is hoped to have a "Grow Your Own" course for Parents in 2016/17. Keep an eye on the HSCL section of the website for information on this.
Green Schools/Longwood Tidy Towns
On Monday 18th April, Betty Dixon, Chairperson of Longwood Tidy Towns came into the school to meet the Green Schools' Committee. The students on the committee told her about some of the work that they have done in getting green flags for the school. Betty then talked to the committee about the work that the Tidy Towns is involved in at the moment. It is hoped to further develop this link between the Green Schools' Committee and Longwood Tidy Towns in 2016/17.
Meath Partnership Pilot Project
The school is involved in a new project with Meath Partnership/Department of Social Inclusion. Nine of our 6th year students are taking part in this career mentoring programme facilitated by Meath Partnership. It aims to support 6th year student in gaining employment or progressing onto further education.

I'm not denying the fact that marriages and relationships need finance, but must it be capitalized on? I heard of a scenario whereby the lady works but capitalizes on spending the guys money and none of hers. The guy in question here got so furious at this and refused to give her money, just to test her, but presently they are in a "temporary" breakup (I hope its temporal).
I believe in independence, if he gives me, fine, if he doesn't, fine too. Its not that I don't like money, I do, and if he has enough to share, why shouldn't he? and I don't mean the stingy 'aka gum/aradite' guys, that even if they have, they still won't give, I mean the free-spirited and free-handed person. If there is dire need for it, why don't you help out. I don't believe that there should be a price-tag for relationships or that they should be expensive. There are other things to a relationship than money, right?
What is your take on this issue? Lets chat friends.

Towed acoustic arrays and hull mounted arrays are used both in military and in civil systems. For example, the seismic industry is an extensive user of acoustic arrays.
Various noise sources will limit the performance of both hull mounted and towed acoustic arrays. One such performance degrading mechanism is caused by the turbulent boundary layer surrounding the arrays when they are moved through water.
The fluctuating pressure field of the turbulent boundary layer will potentially be responded to by pressure fluctuations within the array. This might directly cause a noisy pressure field recorded by the hydrophones. In addition, the fluctuating pressure field will cause mechanical vibrations of the entire system with a wider impact than just the pressure fields' impact at the hydrophones.
In addition to noise sources caused by turbulence (noise from the sea is not treated here), there may be vibrations propagated in the hull or through the towing system, noise from the towing ship, noise from depressors etc.
Hydrodynamics, hydroacoustics and structure mechanics can be used to explain and describe the physical processes of the noise mentioned above that will degrade the performance, but also the propagation of the acoustical signals that the systems are designed to detect.
The physical description and modelling of acoustic arrays involve solution of a multi-physics problem where fluid turbulence, acoustics and structural vibrations are more or less coupled. The modelling is done by solving the Navier-Stokes equations and the elasticity equations numerically and then couple the solutions of both systems.
This coupling can be one- or two-way. Two-way coupling is a big challenge. Modelling of turbulent boundary layers with sufficient precision for these problems is also a challenge. Therefore we run physical experiments involving towed and hull mounted acoustic arrays. This is done to validate the computer codes used for modelling and also to validate our view of which physical processes are involved and which do dominate these systems.

Paul Giamatti plays Peter Parker's nemesis in new film
Peter Parker's new nemesis Rhino stars in the latest clip from The Amazing Spider-Man 2 – scroll down and click to watch.
The villain is played by Sideways and Saving Mr Banks actor Paul Giamatti, and the new teaser shows Rhino hijacking a truck of plutonium while Andrew Garfield's Spider Man attempts to thwart his plan.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 will open in cinemas on April 18. Emma Stone will return as Gwen Stacy, while Jamie Foxx will play new villain Electro. Classic nemesis The Green Goblin, meanwhile, as played by Dane DeHaan, will also feature in the film. Shailene Woodley had been due to appear as Mary Jane Watson, but her role has recently been cut from the film and MJ will now make her Amazing Spider-Man debut at a later date.
It was recently revealed that director Marc Webb, who has helmed The Amazing Spider-Man 2, will return to oversee a third installment in the franchise, although he has since confirmed that he will leave the franchise afterwards. A script has reportedly already been written by Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci and Jeff Pinker, and there are early plans to begin production on the picture this autumn with a scheduled UK release date of 27 May, 2016.

Charger Repair service is usually needed when you experience phone charging problems, cable wire is not delivering steady current if the device is not held in a certain position, data transfer service is not working or it keeps disconnecting and reconnecting. Alongside with battery problems, charger port is another crucial repair type, because battery durability is determined by certain attributes, one of them being the type of current that charges the battery. Short-circuits are a complete disaster to battery life, bad charging ports must be replaced as soon as possible because they deliver electrical current with small interrupts, short-circuits and this can damage the battery and in time other components, especially the mainboard.
Our technicians will assess the damage, repair or replace the problematic component and if you choose it from the options of this product, they will proceed to a deep diagnostic afterward to see if other components are also damaged. If everything is in order, your phone will be shipped back to you with a warranty certificate attached with 12 months warranty. During this period, if the component becomes faulty, we will replace it with no charges, and no shipping fees for you. If there are more than one components damaged or hidden errors discovered on the deep diagnostic procedure, our support will evaluate the cost and inform you of the problems discovered. You can decide if the rest of the damaged components will be replaced as well, or not. If so, then you must place another order on our website, a special order, with special price, and no shipping taxes (they are already paid when you send your phone to us).
Also, during the repair, you can check your repair status in your account, at the order details section.
Attention: Service testing requires an additional 24-72 hours testing of the replaced component. This procedure is an additional insurance that the replaced component will be in order and it has at least, if not better, the same operation parameters as the original component of the phone. There are cases where original spare parts happen to have flaws and are proven to be problematic. Without service testing, we only check if the component is functioning properly, but we don't perform additional endurance and quality assurance testing.

I just started Lyrica for pc seizure, migraine, and spinal nerve pain. I have been prescribed 75 mg twice a day. I have recently lost 15 lbs on the low carb diet and after reading comments from others, I'm afraid of gaining the weight back.

Hi Anjelic. Weight gain or weight loss are a common side effect of taking Lyrica and similar medications. I was on Lyrica for 7-8 years and Cymbalta for 8-9 years. I've slowly tapered off Lyrica and took my last pill in June last year (2017). I'm slowly tapering off Cymbalta now. In the first 8 years I gained over 80 pounds. I went from a size 5 to a size 13. I was over 200 pounds and I'm only 5 feet tall. I was so miserable. I was always small; even after having my 5 children. I didn't connect the weight gain with Lyrica and Cymbalta until I started researching about the medications and their side effects. I started reading about others having the same problem. I had many of the other side effects and some that are not even on the list. I have started to lose a bit of weight; but I've read that many don't lose it until they are completely off the drug. I'm almost done taking Lyrica and I can't wait to get 'me' back. It's a long and very hard process; but I will get there. I'm in a couple of groups on Facebook and one is 'Lyrica Survivors'. If you want to hear other people's stories and need help it's a great group of people. They have helped me very much. Between this group (Drugs.com) and the other group that I mentioned you should be able to find out all that you need. Please do all the research you can. I sure wish someone would have told me to. Take care and I wish you the best. Cindy
