Here are some images taken in low light of pre-developed parts of photographic contact sheets or instant film prints mechanically sewn over undeveloped photographic paper. Some of the pieces have been deformed at the top and fastened with the sewing to hold that shape to make funnels in some instances and some of the shapes have paper punch holes to allow developer to flow through the "funnel" or pieces that abstractly develop the new image exposed on the paper. If the developer doesn't touch the paper what is left is white. Many of the final prints have a background image of the water south of the southern overlook of Gasworks park.
The sewing is done in a bathroom with the window and door edges blacked out. A red darkroom light is the only bulb illuminating the room.
Cut up pieces of exposed photographic paper are sewn on to an unexposed 8 x 10 piece of photographic paper. These sewn composites are put into a "dark" box and taken to a full darkroom with film processing area and enlarger developing room. A negative is put into an enlarger and the image focused on to a test piece of paper, the composites are taken out one at a time, exposed with the image then taken over to the developing tray. The exposed composite is held above the bath and the developer is poured with a beaker over the print held at an angle. The developer is poured over the sewn pieces directing the flow of the development to produce the best final indication of the history of the flow and creating the best image. Sometimes the developer is applied over previous pours to get overlapped darker grays and blacks. Note the flow of the chemicals around paper edges, sewn threads and through paper punched holes. Some of the earlier images with cut up smaller contact sheet images have white lines where the exposures were blocked by threads. These composites have been modified in a post developing stage and tacked with zig-zag sewing to pull the thread away from the white lines. The two factory composites have many sewn line marks to further define the outlines of factories and structure below the implied waterline as if they are sitting in moats recalling paintings of factories from earlier this year.
Many of these photos were accepted for the Blue Sky's Pacific Northwest Viewing Drawers in Portland, Oregon, juried selection 2013.

Here are some useful facts to remember when working with Norwegian translators.
Norway has two official written languages. Most business documents are written in 'Bokm?l', which has developed from Danish (Norway was part of Denmark for 500 years). The Norwegian government and its agencies are mandated to produce 25% of the documents in 'Nynorsk', which is based on Norwegian rural dialects.
The Norwegian financial markets are quite limited, especially when it comes to derivatives. Many English financial terms are used in absence of Norwegian-language equivalents (e.g. warrant, futures, etc.). Names of the mutual funds (e.g. Fidelity Far East Growth Fund) and indices (e.g. FTSE World) also appear in English in the Norwegian language documents.
Experienced Norwegian translators are cognizant of the fact that there is a differentiation in the Norwegian language between the stock shares of public companies and the mutual funds shares. Shares of stocks are translated as 'aksjer', whereas mutual funds shares, or units, are translated as 'andeler'.
Norwegian women are among the most beautiful women in the world. They grew up in a special Norwegian circumstances which makes Norwegian women very special in Norway. Also, Norwegian language makes Norwegian woman very attractive as well.

Super Awesome Epic Stuff!McSciFi OnlinePosted by Bill McCormick Wed, July 25, 2018 18:23:34
So, this is fun. The 3rd edition of The Brittle Riders is being prepped for fall release. Since this one will be in brick and mortar stores - just in time for the holidays! - we're putting special effort into it. Spiffing up my bio, killing angry commas, and essentially taking the whole thing to the next level.
Bonus, talks are now in progress to wrap the whole thing into one book and release that as well. But, that's a bit down the road.
Apocalypses truly are funny this way.

Seattle Market Update
Here is what we are seeing in the real estate market: increased inventory, increased market time and price reductions. Multiple offers and offers over list price are rare now. What does this mean for buyers and sellers?
Sellers need to price their property to match the new market conditions. If the property doesn't sell in the first 2-3 weeks on the market, it is time for a price drop. Sellers should also be prepared to pay for buyer's closing costs, especially if the buyer is an FHA or VA buyer and sellers should not be surprised if they have to pay for repairs on defects called out in the buyer's inspection.
Buyers have more inventory to choose from and more time for due diligence to research the neighborhood (schools, crime statistics, etc.) and condition of the home (structural/pest/sewer inspection, etc.).
There is a lot of confusion and resistance to what's going on. Sellers are reluctant to adjust and drop their asking price when the property doesn't sell. Sellers who ignore the new market conditions will remain on the market longer and homes that are sitting on the market longer almost always get less than market value. It is important for sellers to act quickly on these new market conditions.
Buyers are afraid to commit to what they perceive might be the top of the market. The fear of overpaying keeps some on the sidelines as they want to just wait and see what happens. However, this might be the best time for buyers to negotiate as sellers figure out the new playing field and are desperate to get their home sold.
We do not have a crystal ball and cannot predict where prices are going and what market conditions will be like in the months to come. However, we suspect the market has cooled because it needed to. The frenzy of the last few years is simply not sustainable. We see this change as a good change that will keep the housing market strong and healthy which is a good thing for both buyers and sellers in the long run.
Rents have declined in our area due to increased available inventory as a result of an increase in apartment building construction. More supply with the same demand = declines in rent.
There might be a push for more condo construction or condo conversions (apartment buildings being converted to condos) to meet the demand for condos. In fact, one building downtown which was to be an apartment building will now be condos. Read more about the Spire Building here.
There is very little new construction in urban areas for condos and single-family homes and the demand for these properties has not declined so we do not see home prices dropping in the long term after everyone adjust to the current shift unless employment, wages or other factors change.

Did you know?
The National Association of Realtors (NAR) keeps historical data on many aspects of homeownership. One of their data points, which has changed dramatically, is the median tenure of a family in a home, meaning how long a family stays in a home prior to moving.
Over the last twenty years (1985-2008), the median tenure averaged exactly six years. However, since 2014, that average is almost ten years.
The main factor for this change is the fall in home prices during the housing crisis which left many homeowners in a negative equity situation (where their home was worth less than the mortgage on the property). Also, the uncertainty of the economy during that time made some homeowners much more fiscally conservative about making a move.
It will be interesting to see how this number changes as a large portion of homeowners are not in a house that is best for their current family circumstance such as baby boomers living in an empty, four-bedroom colonial, or a millennial couple living in a tiny urban one-bedroom condo planning to start a family.

When to Change Your Door Locks
Strong locks on your front and back doors are your first line of defense against burglars and other intruders. It's important to lock your doors to prevent unauthorized access to your home, but sometimes, your lock can be compromised. Certain situation such as moving into a new home, losing your key, even going through a breakup or divorce might require you to change the locks on your door.
- Moving in to a new home: When a home is for sale, there's typically a lock box on the front door, and any authorized agent can use a code to get in and access the key. Inspectors and other personnel may have access to the key as well. Any one of these individuals could make a copy of the key, or pocket an extra key that was in the box. Even the old owner probably held on to at least one key from the home. It's best to change your locks as soon as you move in, as it's impossible to know who might have a copy of the key to your new front door. This is a good idea even if you're buying new construction.
- Your lock is worn out: Even if you've been the sole key holder for years, you might need a new lock. Locks experience wear and tear, and with time, they will wear out. A worn or rusted lock can be easily picked or broken. Look for tarnish, rust, and other signs of wear to determine if you need to replace your lock.
- You've experienced a burglary: If a burglar has broken through your lock, it's a good idea to go ahead and change it. Even if they broke in through a window or other source, they may have nabbed or copied a spare key. You also may be a more likely target for burglary in the future, so you should invest in a better lock in case they come knocking again.
- You've lost or stolen your key: If your keys are lost or stolen, anyone can gain access to your home. This is especially dangerous if your keys accompanied any identifying information when you parted ways, such as attached to your wallet, in a purse, or in your car.
- You just completed a renovation: If you've handed a key off to a contractor or two, your lock could be compromised. Even if you trust your contractor, they may have let a sub contractor borrow the key -- or you may not know them as well as you think you do. Better safe than sorry; change the lock.
- You ended a rental agreement: If you've changed roommates or moved out an old tenant, it's time to update your locks. Even if a past tenant turned in their key, there's no way to be sure they don't have a backup copy.
- You've gone through a breakup or divorce: If a significant other has moved out, or you've broken up with a boyfriend or girlfriend who had a key to your place, it's time to change your lock. Like an old tenant, there's no way to be sure that they don't still have a key or a copy of a key lying around, even if they've returned their original key to you.
- Your lock is cheap or inferior: Often, builder grade locks offer little in the way of security. They may be easy to get access to with bump keys or other common burglar tools. Don't make it easy for burglars. Get a better grade of lock that will protect your home and make it more difficult to get access.
Recommendations for Updating Your Door Lock
- Consider rekeying: If you don't want the expense of completely changing out your locks, try rekeying instead. It's just about as easy, and not as expensive as a full lock change.
- Invest in a smart lock system: If you're upgrading your door lock, why not go with one that lets you open the door with a code? That way, you can offer temporary codes to contractors, dog sitters, and anyone else that might need access to your home. When you're done, simply disable their code, and you won't have to worry about changing your locks.
- Change garage door codes: While you're changing your locks for a new move in, remember to update your garage door code, too.

the survival of mankind is often described or visioned with a lot of pathetic words. Hemp fields are just hemp fields.
Quartzen, it does not matter if temperatures in Germany are 7 °C off the average now because all that counts is the global temperature. The latter has risen by 1 °C due to mankind. But if the climate in every part of the world is changed so much that forests die and crops do not grow anymore then it does matter. We will see.

Great argument guys. There are plain facts and a lot of guessing around by us novice and experts alike. Naturally scientific data can be considered legitimate as there are scores of experts working together,sharing information and debating arguments. Flora on our mother planet is absolutely vital for its survival and balance since it evolved naturally ,even before cave men could mutter. But as cave men evolved so did earth with its ice age and different climatic era. As mentioned earlier humans impact on our ecosystem only began a century ago along with industrialization. A hundred years is puny in earths life span but still significant regarding the impact it had so far. We are living in such a high transcient world today where the accelarative thrust is so great that we can barely hold on to our hats, values and forests. Our planet is over-populated with energy-hungry megapolises,greedy and ignorant politicians who breed a throw-away society which threatens the vital balance of our earth. Although I believe there is light at the end of the tunnel as our nature awareness is growing world-wide, backed up by the technological engine allowing far greater interactions amongst nations and means of conducting investigations,experiment and studies of our planets delicately intertwined ecosystem.
There was a great documentary on climate change by National Geographic, where they took air samples from ice drilled in the Antarctic. Tiny air bubbles get trapped in the ice layers over centuries and by testing the composition of these "air samples" they could compose a graph showing atmosperic conditions dating back to thousands of years.
Interestingly even before humans could have contributed to climate change,there were peaks in the graphs indicating a major change in climate possibly caused by huge volcanic eruptions or meteorite impacts.But unfortunately scientist predict the change we are facing now,indicated by the graphs will be the most severe to come.
Btw if I remember correctly from my biology studies from high school a cow produces something like four kg of methane gas every day."Early in the Earth's history—about 3.5 billion years ago—there was 1,000 times as much methane in the atmosphere as there is now. The earliest methane was released into the atmosphere by volcanic activity. During this time, Earth's earliest life appeared. These first, ancient bacteria added to the methane concentration by converting hydrogen and carbon dioxide into methane and water. Oxygen did not become a major part of the atmosphere until photosynthetic organisms evolved later in Earth's history. With no oxygen, methane stayed in the atmosphere longer and at higher concentrations than it does today."From Wikipedia......Cheers bom siva.

Shall I have a go then?
Mind you - I am not going to prove anything. But I do not believe in any "magic" solution to the world's problems. The problem is how we do agriculture, not what we grow.
I think you are wrong here. At this moment, hemp is an ecological sound product. Just like cotton was when it was still growing in the wild. But, as far as I know, hemp is not cultivated in absurd large monocultures like we do with cotton. And that's the problem.Hemp may have a large number of good qualities, but not the necessary qualities for all the demands of any ecosystem. That means that you also need other things, which together form the "equilibrium in nature". If we try to change that equilibrium, nature reacts. This may be either a positive or a negative reaction, and equilibriums can be stable or unstable. So growing nothing but hemp will yield a paradise for nothing-but-hemp-eaters. Whether they already have evolved or not.
Introducing a successful lifeform in one ecosystem into an unprepared other ecosystem can even be downright dangerous. American lobsters are taking over dutch ecosystems, there was much to do about a lake in africa that has been taken over by introduced fish, and these are just examples. There have been insects introduced from europe into the USA that did a huge lot of damage to the american wood industry.
Potatoes used to be the magic solution to crop failure. So we switched to growing potatoes in europe, which in turn led to a giant crop failure in potatoes. And that crop failure killed a vast number of people.
There was a nice documentary on television a few years ago. It was about a biologist who researched the "arms race" between insect poisons and insects becoming resistant to them. At that time, cotton was genetically modified to produce a nerve poison to resist being eaten by insects. The reaction to this was a generation of insects that hardly used their nerve system at all. These insects were awfully slow, but could stay alive on the poisonous plants. Now the biologist remarked that such insects would hardly stand a change on normal, unpoisoned cotton, because these slow insects were an easy prey for any insect-eater. But the poisoned cotton protected them. The insect eaters could not stand the poison yet. So these insects did not survive despite the poisoning, but because of the poisoning. The farmers are thinking that they are fighting the insects, but they are in fact helping them. The biologist did some calculations and expected that the arms race could be stopped if the farmers would grow 20% of their cotton organically: the resistant insects would be eaten on the ecological plants, and enough of the rest would die on the poisonous plants they were already growing.
So I don't think hemp is the answer. No single crop is. Stopping to believe in monoculture would do more good. If you really want to affect the environment with just hemp, you would need a dangerous amount of it. This solution would rapidly become your next problem.
It would bring new diseases and pests, you'd need dangerous chemicals (made from oil probably) to fight them and you might come with a new statement about stinging nettles. Which are not a solution either.
Best regards

DonQuichote, the original post says nothing about cannabis/hemp being the only crop on Earth.
It says cannabis/hemp can supply "the greater part of the world's demand for products such as paper, food, textiles and construction material" in the event of a ban on fossil fuels and the felling of trees.
The premise is that cannabis/hemp can meet most of this demand, while allowing other plants like trees (in conjunction with an end to use of fossil fuels) to restore the atmosphere of the Earth and reverse the greenhouse effect.
The basic argument is that there is no need for humanity to cut down trees or to burn and process fossil fuels.
That's not to say that a huge upsurge in cannabis cultivation wouldn't upset the ecological equilibrium on Earth, but personally I don't think it would cause any major problems if it was properly controlled.
If it did bring new diseases and pests, nature would almost certainly find a way of keeping these pests within safe limits, as long as farmers were willing to put their greed to one side and accept the loss of a small portion of their crop.

cannabis can deliver paper, textiles, kind of food, oil, material for houses and various other things.
but its been proved ( and that not from me, I only posted it ) that any plant , except wide (rain) forests, cant save our climative conditions !
I find it funny that the last post was in 10/06 and now it comes to a new deabate on it, so its fun - and no stress !

Quarzen, the Hempflax challenge doesn't say that cannabis can save our climatic conditions. It says cannabis can provide paper, textile, construction material, energy, etc while trees repair the damage to the environment.

"If the greenhouse effect were to be reversed by a ban on all fossil fuels and their derivatives, or if their use were to come to an end, and no more trees were allowed to be felled in order to prevent further deforestation..."
I think this makes it clear that the soil and the atmosphere on Earth would be restored and pollution reduced by an end to the burning of fossil fuels and an end to the destruction of forests, not by fields of cannabis plants.
The purpose of the cannabis plants is to provide the resources that are currently derived from cutting down trees and from burning and processing fossil fuels.
However, cannabis by itself can also be beneficial to the planet. As a food crop, or when grown for textiles, it is more environmentally friendly than existing crops.

if the development of the mankind goes on like this, they will stop felling trees when theres only few left in the rainforest (and its main regulator on our planet by now).
...and then hemp will be a good delivering source for all these things, but it will never help to restore the atmosphere or prevent pollution.
I wrote this now couple of times, its been proved cause they made new experiments with all kind of plants and recognized this output on methan the first time ( in 06 ). trees can help (though they have a great methan output), but no commercial using of cannabis and also not corn, tobacco, wheat, and so on.
and : commercial fields irrtate the atmophere above.

Okay Quarzen, I don't think you understand what I'm trying to say.
Neither I nor HempFlax have said that cannabis will directly restore the atmosphere or prevent pollution.
The argument is that cannabis can supply the majority of human beings' demand for paper, textile, construction material, energy, food etc.
Therefore, there is no need to cut down trees, burn fossil fuels or grow crops that require vast amounts of chemical pesticides and fertiliser added to the soil.
Now, can we please call a truce? I really wish I'd stayed out of this argument.

hemp is easily grown and easily worked into paper, ropes, fabric, food and so on. A sane world based on hemp did not need so much energy, minerals and water. Everybody can prove that for and reward oneself instantly.

Hi guys - goeden dag;
Congratulations to Mr Dronkers and co for raising awareness to the hemp cause!
My name is Red dragon ;) and I'm the cannabis/hemp news editor at http://cannazine.co.uk - daily zine for the cannabis scene.
Having just signed up as a new member (looking for some information) I hoped no one would mind if I added my tuppenceworth (a frightfully British term if ever there was one) to the debate.
Lots of people believe hemp to be the saviour of the planet, and it has some great qualities, on this we all agree?
But saviour?
As much as people in the press would have you believe its simply a case of planting some hemp seeds to get the first commercial hemp crops grown legally since the second world war, thats just not the case!
In North Dakota farmers are sitting, waiting, wishing, whilst the administration umms and aah's over when the hemp licences will be released.
With the growing season already started, farmers are yet to procure seeds and equipment, essentially writing off this growing season even though the US administration received (and banked) the almost $2500 dollars a commercial hemp licence costs annually!
Elsewhere, because of the specialist nature of hemp (its tough - this we know), special machinery designed to cope the the rigours of processing hemp is being designed and built in barns on backwater farms as the technology just doesn't exist at this stage, to deal with the raw hemp in any mass.
Lets face it, apart from some well thumbed references to the "Indoore" method, there isn't a lot of hard fact around concerning hemp and its cultivation, as well as the handling of the raw material itself, and until this issue is resolved there doesn't seem to be a lot of point in growing it.
Hemp still carries with it the stigma of a distant and 'accidental' relationship with the devil weed marijuana (a publicity job undertaken by Harry Anslinger which was more successful as well as a lot more expensive, than any undertaken by Pepsi).
And until power is wrenched from Harry's long deceased hands (he died in 1975) once and for all, any moves toward hemp legislation will carry on at the pace it does today..painfully slowly!
Without industry spending its money in research & development, hemp will continue to be classed as the hippie cause - one not to be taken seriously.
But before this can happen, the "prime-movers" within the hemp lobby need to mobilize, to organize, and to analyze, on the way to setting up a publicity machine which has the ability to spread the message far & wide. To counter the adverse messages with positive stories and articles, showing the benevolent side of hemp, as well as its subversive sibling, the cannabis plant.
The Internet (and the social bookmarking phenomena) have paved the way for people to take their own message and spread it far and wide, in communities of like minds on MySpace, Facebook etc and this is where the battle could be won!
Even politicians have not yet wised up to the use of the social networks to spread a message. But its a powerful tool, served to people who search for a specific topic genre, so spam filters are taken fully out of the equation and our information served hot and fresh, to a generation unafraid of undertaking transacions online.
This is the Ebay generation!
If you would like to know more about how to use cutting edge technology to move information in a way that just wasn't possible a year or so back, check in with us at the canna zine - daily zine for the cannabis scene.
Good luck Hempflax!

No, seriously, the resemblance is pretty striking between the English actress and brand new Helix Studios model Greco Rai.
He also has a bit of a Valerie Bertinelli quality, but no, I'm pretty sure it's Minnie Driver who he could separated at birth from.
That smile! That pout! That jawline! It's all there.
Greco is mighty pretty, I will say, if you're into that in a guy.

ASA in China
November 3, 2016 Leave a comment
Next week, ASA will present at the 2016 China Aviation & MRO/Aftermarket Conference. We will be discussing the value that AC 00-56B brings to air carriers and MROs, and explaining how Chinese air carriers can use the FAA's accreditation database to identify foreign aircraft parts distributors with effective quality assurance systems.
We will also participate on a panel discussing how to "Improve the Information Sharing Level of Air-material Supply Chain and Optimize the Inventory Management Mode."
According to the organizers' website, they expect the attendance of 26 airlines from China and surrounding nations. This should be a great opportunity for ASA members to network and build business relationships in China.
If you haven't yet registered, and you do business (or want to do business) in China, then now is the time to register!

Here he combines the casts from The Fighter and Silver Linings Playbook (Christian Bale, Amy Adams, Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence) to tell the story of an FBI sting operation against Congress in the 1970's. Bale, as usual, is pretty unrecognizable from these pics.

Easter Island Society Didn't Collapse In War, But Thrived In Cooperation: Study
To many people, Easter Island is familiar only by the iconic stone sculptures called "moai" that dot the stunning land.
True enough, the statues play a major part in understanding the island and its people, but even beyond the awe-inspiring moai, this remote island off the coast of Chile belies a rich history and potentially sophisticated society that experts are only starting to unearth.
For the study published in the Journal of Pacific Archaeology, archaeologists analyzed the chemical properties of ancient tools to learn more about the elusive society.
The Ancient People Of Easter Island
Field Museum reveals that the first people arrived on the island 900 years ago on just two canoes. Through the years, the complex society thrived to the thousands, making the region their own and building thousands of the now-famous moai structures. The largest ever is more than 70 feet high.
The existence of the moai structures are enough to suggest a complex civilization.
"Ancient Rapa Nui had chiefs, priests, and guilds of workers who fished, farmed, and made the moai," lead author Dale Simpson, Jr., an archaeologist from the University of Queensland, says, adding that a certain level of sociopolitical organization is necessary to achieve nearly a thousand statues.
Tools Tell The Island's History
To better understand the people who worked on these statues, Simpson and his colleagues analyzed the composition of 21 of about 1,600 stone tools called "toki" that were excavated with four statues in the inner region Rano Raraku.
Part of the study was to figure out where the materials for the tools came from. According to Laure Dussubieux, an author of the study and Field Museum scientist, the team wanted to know if the people were simply using material that's near their camp.
The tools are made from volcanic stone called basalt, of which were found in at least three different quarries in the island. There are subtle differences in the rocks from each source due to the differences in geology, so scientists are able to pinpoint where the materials to make the tools were obtained.
The results of the chemical analysis strongly suggest a collaborative society in prehistoric Easter Island.
"The majority of the toki came from one quarry complex — once the people found the quarry they liked, they stayed with it," Simpson explains. "For everyone to be using one type of stone, I believe they had to collaborate. That's why they were so successful — they were working together."
For a long time, the ancient society was believed to be extinct after succumbing to in-fighting and the destruction of their natural resources.
However, the study authors say that the island's inhabitants interacted significantly. Over the centuries, Easter Island became colonized by Europeans and many of the inhabitants were sold into slavery. Still, until modern times, there are Rapa Nui people who continue live in the island.
Of course, it's also important to be aware of the study limitations.
While the tools' analysis supports the idea of information exchange among the prehistoric people, it doesn't necessarily mean collaboration, coauthor Jo Anne Van Tilburg of the Easter Island Statue Project explains. Coercion is also possible.

A Summer With Hush Puppies | June
Haute with Hush Puppies is my slogan this summer.
Yesterday, I shared the beginning of my summer series featuring Hush Puppies shoes so I wanted to tell you a little bit about them. They have been around since 1958! Their focus is on creating products that are timeless, good quality, and comfortable...you had me at timeless.
Hush Puppies is now a global name that sells millions of shoes each year. They are one brand of Wolverine Worldwide which is based in Rockford, MI. Yas, Michigan yaaaaas (think Oprah voice...which fun fact: Oprah loves Hush Puppies)!
The shoes that Hush Puppies sent me for June are the Noely Discover heels. They are made from a yummy suede material and have a little chunky heel. My favorite part of their aesthetic are the dainty ties around the ankle. I really liked the tan color but they also come in a darker slate shade. Check out how I styled them with different outfits below!
I thought the ankle strap ties were adorable with this simple dress. You could easily transition this outfit from the office to a night out. I love the ethereal spirit of a white dress; these heels were a great match because of the lace detailing on the chest. There are some shirts/dresses that don't need tons of accessories because they are a statement on their own or they have a unconventional neckline. These shoes are the perfect touch of flair for those 'stand-alone' items.
4th OF JULY OUTFIT PLANNING
I have actually worn this outfit to a summer evening BBQ. These shoes are the perfect way to bring something noteworthy to the party to allow your clothes to remain simple and comfortable. I always love a lighter blue + white moment; this chambray button-up with white ankle pants screamed summer to me. I added a few layering necklaces and left the top button undone for a more casual, dressed down look. Grab your picnic basket or tote bag and you're ready for whatever the 4th has in store for you!
Summer tis' not only the season for white pants...but also white shorts. They coordinate easily with a lot of different tops from a fun button up like the one above, to an easy tee that you can dress up/down. I paired mine with a blush, bell sleeve top with some embroidery detailing (oh and tassels because, duh). The Hush Puppies were a great addition vs. a pair of plain flip flops which can come off sloppy at times. The shoes bring a little formality to the outfit without leaving the casual, summery lane. My favorite straw hat and Sweet Frances sunnies were the perfect accessories for this "praise, it's freaking June" outfit.
Let me know which look is your favorite from the outfits this month. I can't wait to bring you a new pair of Hush Puppies in July.
Thanks to Hush Puppies for partnering with me for this fun series! Also-shout out to Tyler from Wendling & Boyd, Kristin from Kristin Jones, and Joanna from Carpe Corde for the photography. And, thanks Kherington from The Kierra Quinn for the great cheerleading. It takes a village y'all.

By Garry Kwok, national manager of Wormald Australia's Technical Services Group
In our last blog post John Lynch encouraged householders and businesses to think carefully about fire safety during the winter months. Installing smoke alarms is one important fire safety measure – there's no doubt that smoke alarms can save lives and, in the event of a fire, they can assist in providing the precious time needed to act or escape. But while a smoke alarm may seem like a generic product there are actually different types to choose from.
It's important to take time to carefully select and purchase the most suitable smoke alarms for your building. For use in Australia, smoke alarms should be ActivFire listed to be compliant to Australian Standard, AS3786–1996. In New Zealand smoke alarms should also be compliant with AS3786 or other applicable Standards (UL 217, CAN/ULC S531, BS 5446 Part 1, EN 14604 or ISO 12239).
There are two main types of smoke alarms – ionisation and photoelectric – both of which work in different ways.
Ionisation smoke alarms are best at detecting smoke from fast flaming fires. They contain a limited amount of radioactive source material that creates an electrical current which travels through ionised air. When smoke enters the detection chamber it interrupts the current and causes the alarm to sound.
Photoelectric smoke alarms are best at detecting smoke from slow smouldering fires which are most likely to occur at times when people are asleep. They work using a light source and photocell – when smoke enters the detection chamber it interferes with the light beam which sets off the alarm. A typical ignition source for a smouldering fire may be a carelessly discarded cigarette or faulty electrical equipment. Photoelectric smoke alarms are best suited for bedrooms and living areas. They are also suitable for use near kitchens as they tend to cause fewer nuisance alarms than ionisation smoke alarms.
Legislation across most of Australia stipulates that homes must have at least one smoke alarm, ideally located where people sleep. If a home has more than one storey, there should be a smoke alarm on each level. In New Zealand, Standard NZS 4514:2009 requires smoke alarms in bedrooms, living spaces, hallways and landings within each dwelling. Many fatal fires occur when people are asleep so it really does make sense for smoke alarms to be in every dwelling – whether mobile or permanent.
In late 2011, the Northern Territory (NT) passed legislation relating to the installation of photoelectric smoke alarms in NT residences. According to the legislation all residential and movable dwellings in NT, including caravans and temporary accommodation, must have working photoelectric smoke alarms in place. When the legislation was introduced residents could continue using any existing ionisation smoke alarms until they cease functioning. In leased premises ionisation smoke alarms could be used until the lease expires or the premises is sold.
I'd advise you to familiarise yourself with the various types of smoke alarms available and the legislation of your specific State/region/country. Wormald's sister company Exelgard has put together this educational video which includes information on the key differences between ionisation and photoelectric smoke alarms.
Once you have purchased your smoke alarms, it is important that they are positioned in the right place to have maximum effectiveness in the event of a fire. Exelgard has also developed an educational video on how to correctly install a smoke alarm – visit www.exelgard.com.au to view.

Bass The Movie
The lakes and waterways of California have produced such a large proportion of the USA's biggest largemouth bass that it can't just be coincidence. "Bass: The Movie" pairs professional, conventional bass anglers with fly fishermen to see how their contrasting styles and techniques fair against one of the most popular quarry species in the US. With a cast of champion and record breaking anglers, the film is packed with information about the largemouth's habits, habitat and history and should appeal to conventional and fly anglers alike.

It began as something we joked about. Our friends in the photography industry began to confuse me for Lori, and vice versa.Then as we started working together, second shooting for each others weddings, we joked about someday joining forces and taking over the photography world together. As the time passed, the joking led to thinking- what if? Could we really take over the photography world together? Ok fine, so maybe taking over the world is a bit of a stretch… this isn't rocket science after all.
But working together wasn't such an "out-there" thought, was it? We already knew each others' photographic style, workflow, and even most of each others' crazy little quirks. We've only known each other for three years, yet it feels like we've not only become great friends, but sisters as well. On top of all that, we do our best work when we work together.
So, no, it's not crazy…it's actually quite perfect.
So as of today, the i's are dotted and the t's are all crossed. We are super excited and extremely proud to share that Lori A Coleman, of Light & Ink and myself, Erin Perrotta from Perrotta Creative are now one business: Lori & Erin Photography.
We're still the same people, with the same photography styles and silly senses of humor. In essence, the only thing that's changing…is our e-mail addresses.
With that, we warmly welcome you to Lori & Erin Photography.
We do what we do, because we love our clients. We enjoy photographing you, your loved ones and your relationships. Then we love to watch you relive those moments through your images. We are blessed, not only to have each other, as friends, "sisters" and now business partners – but also to have you along for the journey with us. So thank you, for your support, trust and mostly for just being you.
In conclusion, welcome, welcome, welcome! We can't wait to have you on board with us as we begin this new endeavor, so thanks for checking us out online. Now, come check us out in person. Please, come in and have a glass of wine with us; because above all else, we love to make new friends.

Long, long ago, there lived a Brahmin in a small village. Once his father told him to purchase a healthy goat for that purpose. The Brahmin visited the cattle fair and bought a healthy and fat goat. He slung the goat over his shoulder and headed back for his home.
There were three crooks also roaming in the fair, and when they saw the Brahmin going back to his home with the goat, they thought of a plan to get the goat by tricking the Brahmin. Then they separated from one another and took hiding positions at three different places on the path of the Brahmin. As soon as the Brahmin reached a lonely spot, one of the crooks came to him and said in a surprised tone, "Sir, what's this? I don't understand why a pious man like you should carry a dog on his shoulders!" The Brahmin was shocked to hear these words. He shouted back, "Can't you see? It's not a dog but a goat, you fool." "I beg for your apology, sir. I told you what I saw. I am sorry if you don't believe it," said the crook and went away.
The Brahmin had hardly walked a hundred yards when another crook came up to him and said, "Sir, why do you carry a dead calf on your shoulders? You seem to be a wise person. Such an act is sheer foolishness on your part." "What!" the Brahmin shouted. "How do you mistake a living goat for a dead calf?"
"Sir," replied the second crook, "you seem to be highly mistaken in this respect yourself. Either you come from such a country where goats are not found, or you do it knowingly. I just told you what I saw. " The second crook went away laughing.
The Brahmin walked further. But again, he had hardly covered a little distance when the third crook confronted him laughing "Sir, why do you carry a donkey on your shoulders? It makes you a laughing stock", said the thug and began to laugh again. The Brahmin hearing the words of the third thug became highly worried. 'Is it really not a goat!' He began to think. "Is it some kind of a ghost!"
The Brahmin got frightened. He thought to himself that the animal he was carrying on his shoulders might certainly be some sort of a ghost, because, it transformed itself from goat into a dog, from dog into a dead calf and from dead calf into a donkey. The Brahmin was then terrified to such an extent that he flung the goat on to the roadside and fled. The crooks caught the goat and feasted on it happily.

WOMAN ON TOP: HELMUT NEWTON @ ANNENBERG June 29th- Sept 8th
Eyes of Laura Mars, the 1978 thriller starring Faye Dunaway as a fashion photographer plagued from a serial killer targeting models, was my first introduction to Helmut Newton. Although young, naive and easily enamored by the fact that the film's heroine had both my dream job and my gender, I felt a disconnection between Dunaway's sultry and vulnerable portrayal of Laura Mars and the character's supposed portfolio. The imagery was subversive yet cheeky in its sexual perversion. Although not impossible, I had a hard time believing Laura Mars, or any woman fresh from the height of liberation, would ever think to characterize another in that particular way. After learning the images were either Newton originals or done in his likeness, things finally began to add up. Thus, began a life long obsession with the Newton, a man who saddled controversy to give an unabashedly honest and sometimes humorous portrayal of woman by a man.
On display now through September 8th at the Annenberg Space for Photography is Helmut Newton: White Women, Sleepless Nights and Big Nudes. The exhibition is comprised of photographs featured in the first three published books by Newton bearing the same name. Interestingly enough, the publication dates of the first two, White Women (1976) and Sleepless Nights (1978), bookend the theatrical debut of Eyes of Laura Mars. The photographs presented from this period exemplify Newton's ability to resist the constraints of propriety by idealizing the nude female form and turning gender roles on their ear. And he did so with luxury and opulence in mind. The exhibition shows Newton prowess as a photographer. He dances brilliantly from personal portraiture to fashion and advertising work, all the while maintaining a point of view that celebrates sexuality as currency and power.
The Annenberg exhibition offers a complete look into Newton through a series of lectures and films. They consist of the men and women influenced by his work by being behind and in front of his camera. Most insightful is the 2007 documentary Helmut by June.

I'd rather be fishing…
National Fishing and Boating Week 2016
June 4-12 is National Fishing and Boating Week, sponsored by the Recreational Boating & Fishing Foundation. Throughout the month, many states offer "free fishing days" when anyone is allowed to fish on public bodies of water without purchasing a fishing license, salmon stamps, or inland trout stamps (6/17/16-6/20/16 for Illinois). Find free fishing days in other states here: Free Fishing Days 2016.
Recreational fishing presents a chance to escape from the daily grind and spend time with family or friends on or near the water. It also provides an opportunity to bond with children while helping them develop an appreciation for waterways and wildlife. Fishing offers a number of health benefits as well (infographic courtesy of Bass Pro Shops)
So get out there and take advantage of some of the beautiful waterways near you. Not sure where to go? The Recreational Fishing & Boating Foundation offers a way for to you find great spots and can be even be narrowed down by species of fish: www.takemefishing.org/where-to-fish-and-boat

Talbert, Dammeier will vie for Pierce County executive
Republican state Sen. Bruce Dammeier and Democratic Pierce County Councilman Rick Talbert will compete in November to run Pierce County government as the county executive.
Talbert was leading early primary election returns Tuesday with Dammeier in second place among several Republican candidates.
Under the state's "top two" voting system, the two candidates who receive the most votes in the primary, regardless of their political party preference, run against each other in November's general election. Eliminated from the county executive competition were Pierce County Councilman Dan Roach and former state Sen. Larry Faulk, both Republicans.
The winner of the chief executive's race will replace Pat McCarthy, who is running for state auditor.
Dammeier said his team worked hard to defeat a strong Republican slate.
"Dan worked hard, and Larry worked very hard," Dammeier said Tuesday night. "Now we're going to take a couple of days off and then retool for the big race. It's time to end the 16 years of Democratic domination and build a county for the future."
Dammeier spent heavily to best Roach, mailing out thousands of fliers and airing television commercials criticizing Roach for violating campaign finance law while he was in the Legislature.
Talbert said he isn't concerned that Dammeier has raised twice as much money as he has.
"This is a race about the issues, not about campaign spending," he said. The difference between him and Dammeier, he said, is that he has worked to govern day to day, while Dammeier has worked in the Legislature making rules for local government.
Dammeier's primary campaign was the best financed among the four. According to documents filed with the state Public Disclosure Commission, Dammeier has raised $331,273 and spent $245,647 so far in the race for the county's highest office. Dammeier, a U.S. Naval Academy graduate and co-owner of Print NW, is a state senator, a former state representative and a former Puyallup School Board member.
Talbert, who previously worked as a county performance auditor and council aide, was second in the fundraising race with $153,356 collected and $84,337 spent.
Roach's mother, state Sen. Pam Roach, is running for the Pierce County Council District 2 position. The elder Roach is State Senate president pro-tempore, having represented her district in South King County and North Pierce County since 1991.
Tuesday's returns put Pam Roach in first place, trailed by Carolyn Edmonds, a former Democratic state representative. Both will advance to the general election, after eliminating a third candidate, Democrat and community newspaper editor Pat Jenkins.
Pam Roach, a controversial figure in the Legislature for her plain-spoken manner and allegedly harsh treatment of staff members, reportedly is under federal investigation for her political fundraising activities. The council candidate said she has no knowledge of an FBI probe and blamed her political enemies for stirring up rumors.
Roach said Tuesday night that she will resign her Senate seat if elected to the County Council.
In the District 6 council race, voters chose County Council Chairman Doug Richardson and public relations executive Linda Farmer as general election competitors. Richardson, a former Lakewood mayor, is a Republican. Farmer, a Democrat, is the communications director at the Pierce County Library System. Kurt Erickson, a former Army infantry sergeant, was a distant third Tuesday.
In the District 4 race, write-in candidate William C. "Kit" Burns, an independent, appeared to secure a spot on the general election ballot by receiving more than 1 percent of the vote. In July, Burns declared his intention to run against Councilwoman Connie Ladenburg, who had been unopposed. Burns is a retired Tacoma architect who helped lead an effort to stop Pierce County from constructing a multimillion dollar general services building. Ladenburg is a former Tacoma City Council member and a former state representative.
County Councilman Jim McCune, a Republican, will vie against Democrat Dennis Townsend for the District 3 seat in November. Townsend is a former Bethel School Board chairman.

OLEV Grants of £500 for Car Charging Coventry Birmingham
Mr Electric a company you can trust to handle your OLEV grants only employ fully qualified NICEIC electricians who are experts regarding car charger installation
OLEV Grants Coventry info-Mr Electric a Coventry based electrical company has been endorsed as a Government-approved installer of electric car charging points and now assist and help customers apply for the OLEV grant towards the cost of installation. Mr Electric Coventry can arrange OLEV Grants of £500 towards your installation
Mr Electric Coventry have become one of the first car charger installers who can arrange OLEV Grant in Coventry
As an authorised installer, the company can apply for OLEV grants in Coventry on behalf of domestic and commercial customers to reduce the costs of installing charging points at homes, workplaces and destinations.
The Electric Vehicle Homecharge Scheme provides up to 75% of the installation cost (up to a total of £500) for charging points at domestic properties, while the Workplace Charging Scheme offers up to £300 per socket (up to a maximum of 20 sockets) for commercial properties.
The Government grants are designed to support the wider use of electric and hybrid vehicles, but work has to be carried out by approved installers, using products from approved suppliers.
Mr Electric Birmingham North Coventry achieved accreditation after undertaking OLEV's robust training and testing process and is now able to install charging points, provided by registered supplier EO Charging – one of the UK's leading suppliers of electric vehicle charging stations.
Jeff Longley, Mr Electric Birmingham North Coventry franchise owner, said: "The endorsement by OLEV is great news and the really interesting aspect is that we can apply for the funding on behalf of the customer and deduct it directly from the cost. There are very few charging points in existence at this time, but with new electric cars being produced in ever increasing numbers, that will have to change.
"To claim a grant, you have to use an OLEV-approved installer and we are one of the first in the Midlands to achieve that accreditation. We can apply for the grants on behalf of customers for a simple and cost-effective way of installing charging points at homes and businesses and we would encourage people to take advantage of the funding while it's available.
"We have teamed up with EO Charging, which is a well-known, established business which is also registered with OLEV to supply the infrastructure for charging points."
The Office for Low Emission Vehicles is a team working across Government to support the early market for ultra-low emission vehicles (ULEV) and has over £900million to position the UK at the global forefront of ULEV development, manufacture and use.
The Government is driving forward its green transport revolution and this has been further boosted by the recent introduction of the new Automated and Electric Vehicles Bill in Parliament.
A number of measures have been proposed as part of the bill in a £1.2bn investment plan for the industry.
This includes improved access and availability of charge points for electric cars, including points at all UK motorway services and large petrol retailers and new powers for Government to make it compulsory for charge points to be installed.
Introducing the bill, Transport Minister John Hayes, said: "This bill will aid the construction of greater infrastructure to support the growing demand for automated and electric vehicles as we embrace the technology and move into the future.
"Drivers of electric vehicles will be able to easily locate and charge at any charge point, using information from sat navs or mobile apps, regardless of the vehicle make or model – making running an electric vehicle even easier. All charge points will have to be 'smart' meaning they can interact with the grid in order to manage demand for electricity across the country."
Mr Electric's partnership with EO Charging means it can install and manage electric vehicle charge stations for homes, workplaces and destinations throughout the UK. This includes a full turnkey service, with free site survey, design, installation, registration, monitoring, billing, smart control, maintenance and future expansion.
