La Jolla Rec Center tree becomes home for trio of barn owls
The La Jolla Recreation Center may be closed due to coronavirus-related restrictions, but a new family of residents is keeping a watchful eye on the place at night.
The evening of Aug. 17, Tami Louise Assaf snapped a photo of three young owls — believed to be barn owls — peering out from a palm tree that fronts the Rec Center at 615 Prospect St. in The Village.
"They make a loud, bizarre noise — not at all like a hoot!" she said. "They are so cute."
Rec Center staff wasn't aware of the owls' presence in the tree before Assaf took her picture. City of San Diego spokesman Tim Graham said staff would determine whether "this requires us to take any particular action as a result."
He called the photo "awesome."
San Diego Audubon Society volunteer Wayne Harmon said it's common for barn owls to nest in trees in urban areas, especially palm trees, and that their presence doesn't call for any special care.
"When the babies get bigger, they will screech and make a lot of noise," Harmon said. "There are probably mice and other rodents in that area that the owls are eating. You are lucky to have barn owls to help control the mouse, gopher and rat population."
The barn owl is the most widespread species of owl and one of the most widespread of all species of birds.
The National Audubon Society says that "with its ghostly appearance, rasping shrieks and habit of roosting in such places as church belfries, this bird has attracted much superstition. However, it is really a good omen for farmers who find it in their barns, for it preys chiefly on mice and rats. Discovered in its daytime retreat, the barn owl bobs its head and weaves back and forth, peering at the intruder. At night it is often heard calling as it flies high over farmland or marshes."
Barn owls are described as pale overall with dark eyes and a mix of buff and gray on the head, back and upper wings. They are white on the face, body and under wings. At night they can appear to be all white. ◆

How Much Protein You Need to Eat Every Day (Hint: You're Probably Not Getting Enough)
Men's Journal online
Despite everything we know about the connection between protein and muscle growth (for the record, protein refers to the amino acids from foods that our bodies require to be healthy and strong but don't produce intrinsically), it wasn't until very recently that scientists began to determine just how much protein we should be eating, what types (animal or plant), when (morning or evening), and how much. "Back in the early 1980s, we used to think that if you averaged out your recommended protein intake over a week, you were OK," says Nancy Rodriguez, Ph.D., a professor of nutritional studies at the University of Connecticut. "But fast-forward 10 years, and we realized it wasn't just having protein every two or three days. You should be eating it every day and distributing it among meals and snacks."
What Should Your Diet Be Like After 50?
AARP online
The number of calories you need each day drops slightly as you age, yet most people keep eating the same amount of food. The government's dietary guidelines advise that you burn approximately 200 fewer daily calories after age 50. So, if you're a 50-year-old who eats like a 40-year-old, you could gain more than a pound of body fat each month. "It's simple, really," says Nancy Rodriguez, a professor of nutritional sciences at the University of Connecticut. "If your calorie burn goes down and you don't change the way you eat, then you're going to put on weight."
The Truth About Protein Drinks
Consumer Reports online
Older adults need more—0.6 gram of protein per pound of body weight per day, or about 90 grams for someone who weighs 150 pounds. It's needed to help the body heal and help prevent falls. "Protein is especially important in older men and women to maintain existing muscle mass and offset muscle losses [that come] with aging," says Nancy Rodriguez, Ph.D., R.D., professor of nutritional sciences at the University of Connecticut.
Should You Get More Protein?
AARP online
"Muscle supports our skeletal system," says Nancy Rodriguez, professor of nutritional sciences at the University of Connecticut. "When you combine loss of muscle with loss of bone, you've got the perfect storm to fall and fracture a hip or break an arm." While it's not quite as simple as "eat chicken, get biceps," getting enough protein in your diet — coupled with physical activity, such as strength training or resistance training — does help you maintain and even regain muscle.
The Truth About Protein
Family Circle print
It's best to eat smaller amounts throughout the day and alternate the foods you choose. "We need to consistently deliver essential amino acids to our bodies. These are nutrients we don't make ourselves, so we have to get them from our diet," says Nancy Rodriguez, PhD, RD, professor of nutritional sciences at the University of Connecticut. "You should get a variety at every meal." She suggests women aim for 10 to 15 grams of protein per snack and 20 to 25 grams at breakfast, lunch and dinner.
You Asked: Is It Bad to Exercise on an Empty Stomach?
TIME magazine online
It's extra important for older adults over 55 to eat something before exercising—especially when working out first thing in the morning. "Throughout the night, our body makes physiological adjustments so we're able to survive, and that includes breaking itself down to sustain our blood-glucose levels," says Nancy Rodriguez, a professor of nutrition sciences at the University of Connecticut. If you exercise in the a.m. before eating, she explains, your body continues to operate in this "break-down state," which can lead to muscle loss—a concern for many seniors.
Are These 'Healthy' Foods Really Good for You?
TIME magazine online
"When you eat protein from whole foods, you get extra nutrients and fiber that contribute to a healthy diet," says Nancy Rodriguez, professor of nutritional sciences at the University of Connecticut.
Is Protein Powder Good For You?
TIME magazine online
In the ways that count most, the answer is no. "I work from a foods-first philosophy," says Nancy Rodriguez, professor of nutritional sciences at the University of Connecticut in Storrs. "There are bioactive ingredients in foods that we can't duplicate [in a powder], but we know are helpful."
This Is How Much Protein You Really Need to Eat in a Day
Health magazine online
You're very active That means getting at least 35 to 40 minutes of moderate exercise four or five days a week, including resistance training two or more times a week. Consider eating 1.2 to 2 grams of dietary protein per kilogram (or about 0.5 to 0.9 grams per pound) of body weight each day, says Nancy Rodriguez, PhD, professor of nutritional sciences at the University of Connecticut. That amount is best for rebuilding muscle tissue, especially if you do a lot of high-intensity workouts, research suggests.

The number of days required for assessing usual nutrient and antioxidant intakes in a sample of healthy college populationNutrition
2014 The primary aim of this study was to determine the number of days required to assess usual antioxidant intake with a defined level of accuracy in a sample of healthy college students. The secondary aim of this study was to increase the validity of the calculation of days by first determining the prevalence of misreporting energy intake in 30-d food records (FRs).
Nutrition and Athletic PerformanceMedScape
2010 It is the position of the American Dietetic Association, Dietitians of Canada, and the American College of Sports Medicine that physical activity, athletic performance, and recovery from exercise are enhanced by optimal nutrition. These organizations recommend appropriate selection of foods and fluids, timing of intake, and supplement choices for optimal health and exercise performance.
Increasing Dietary Protein Requirements in Elderly People for Optimal Muscle and Bone HealthJournal of the American Geriatrics Society
2009 Osteoporosis and sarcopenia are degenerative diseases frequently associated with aging. The loss of bone and muscle results in significant morbidity, so preventing or attenuating osteoporosis and sarcopenia is an important public health goal. Dietary protein is crucial for development of bone and muscle, and recent evidence suggests that increasing dietary protein above the current Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) may help maintain bone and muscle mass in older individuals. Several epidemiological and clinical studies point to a salutary effect of protein intakes above the current RDA (0.8 g/kg per day) for adults aged 19 and older. There is evidence that the anabolic response of muscle to dietary protein is attenuated in elderly people, and as a result, the amount of protein needed to achieve anabolism is greater. Dietary protein also increases circulating insulin-like growth factor, which has anabolic effects on muscle and bone. Furthermore, increasing dietary protein increases calcium absorption, which could be anabolic for bone. Available evidence supports a beneficial effect of short-term protein intakes up to 1.6 to 1.8 g/kg per day, although long-term studies are needed to show safety and efficacy. Future studies should employ functional measures indicative of protein adequacy, as well as measures of muscle protein synthesis and maintenance of muscle and bone tissue, to determine the optimal level of dietary protein. Given the available data, increasing the RDA for older individuals to 1.0 to 1.2 g/kg per day would maintain normal calcium metabolism and nitrogen balance without affecting renal function and may represent a compromise while longer-term protein supplement trials are pending.

From Godwin Tsa, Abuja
In a 4-to-3 split decision, the Supreme Court on Wednesday affirmed the election of Mr Rotimi Akeredolu as Governor of Ondo State.
The apex court in a majority judgment delivered by Justice Emmanuel Agim upheld Akeredolu's election on the grounds that the appeal by Olutayo Jegede and the People's Democratic Party (PDP) lacked merit since the appellants failed to include Yobe State Governor and Chairman of the Caretaker Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mai Mala Buni, a party in the suit.
The majority decision agreed with the decision of the tribunal that the failure of the appellants to include Buni was fatal to their case.
Justices Inyang Okoro, Mohammed Tijani Abubakar and Mohammed Garba all supported the majority decision.
However, the minority judgment led by Justice Mary Peter-Odili, held that since APC is the principal and was made a party, there was no need to join Buni in the suit.
The majority decision said it is the position of the law that Buni being a sitting governor cannot be acting Chairman of the APC and was therefore wrong to have submitted the name of Akeredolu to INEC as candidate of the APC.
Justices of the dissenting judgment also include Ejembi Eko and Ibrahim Saulawa.

Theodoros Kolokotronis
Theodoros Kolokotronis
After the war, Kolokotronis grew to become a supporter of Count Ioannis Kapodistrias and a proponent of alliance with Russia. When the depend was assassinated on 8 October 1831, Kolokotronis created his personal administration in support of Prince Otto of Bavaria as a King of Greece. However, later he opposed the Bavarian-dominated regency throughout his rule. He was charged with treason and on 7 June 1834 sentenced to dying; however he was pardoned in 1835. Theodoros Kolokotronis died in 1843 in Athens at some point after his son's Konstantinos wedding ceremony.
Some time earlier than the execution of the sentence, the king granted them a reprieve. They have been transferred to Palamidi to a "more secure place" for another eleven months. As Kolokotronis himself stated "The means individuals welcomed me made me overlook all the misfortunes I had been through". Only a person of his grandeur could utter phrases like these in any case his struggling. According to my judgement, the French Revolution and the doings of Napoleon opened the eyes of the world. The nations knew nothing before and the people thought that kings have been gods upon the earth and that they had been bound to say that whatever they did as properly done.
Kolokotronis's Memoirs (
Kolokotronis used guerrilla ways to put on Ibrahim's forces down; but given his limited resources, was unable to forestall the widespread destruction that Ibrahim left in his wake. Still, in 1825, in recognition of his army acumen and many companies to the Greek cause, he was appointed commander-in-chief of Greek forces within the Peloponnese. To his dismay, Dramali discovered himself cut off from his provide fleet, which had meant to land at Nafplio but was efficiently blockaded by the Greek fleet underneath Admiral Andreas Miaoulis. Dramali reluctantly determined upon a retreat toward Corinth by way of the Dervenaki Pass, via which he had just come unmolested. In August 1822 his quicker-moving guerrilla forces trapped the Ottomans within the cross and annihilated them.
Despite his age, the Greek commander claimed victory after victory, and his forces were unstoppable. The Battle of Dervenakia, in August 1822, inflicted nice damage upon the forces of the Ottoman army, and equally necessary, upon its status. His eldest son, Panos Kolokotronis, was killed during the second civil warfare. Panicked, government officials deserted Argos and started evacuations by sea at Nafplion. Only an beneath-power battalion underneath Demetrios Ypsilantis remained to carry Larissa fort, the fortress of Argos.
In August 1822, his faster-moving guerrilla forces trapped the Ottomans in the move and annihilated them in the Battle of Dervenakia. Kolokotronis gathered the klephts collectively to march to the aid of Ypsilantis. This was fairly a feat in itself, contemplating the near-collapse of the government and the notoriously quarrelsome nature of the klephtic bands.

Kolokotronis's best success was the defeat of the Ottoman military under Mahmud Dramali Pasha on the Battle of Dervenakia in 1822. In 1825, he was appointed commander-in-chief of the Greek forces in Peloponnese. Today, Kolokotronis ranks among the many most distinguished figures in Greece's War of Independence.

After Greece's profitable of independence over the Ottoman Empire, the indomitable fighter turned a supporter of Greece's first ruler of contemporary occasions, Ioannis Kapodistrias.
His greatest success was the defeat of the Ottoman military underneath Mahmud Dramali Pasha at Dervenakia in 1822. He started the marketing campaign in Nafplio main a military of Greek troopers against Dramali and his Turkish troops, who occupied the acropolis.

This Teenager Is Out To Show Her Peers Anyone Can Do a Triathlon
Fifteen-year-old Kate Kinard is looking to earn the prestigious Girl Scout Gold Award for bringing a youth triathlon program to the military base where she currently resides in South Korea.
Heading out the door? Read this article on the new Outside+ app available now on iOS devices for members! Download the app.
When Osan Air Base in Pyeongtak, South Korea shut down at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, 15-year-old Kate Kinard found herself with a surplus of energy and few options for burning it off. Her school went virtual, sports were canceled, and her usual hangouts were closed. The American student, who is living in South Korea with her military family, was given the same advice as many youth around the world: if you're bored, go outside.
"There really wasn't much to do," admitted Kinard. "But everything was shut down, so I decided to take a running camp with Lynn Mattix [veteran, military spouse, and founder of FundHerTri]." Though Kinard is active in multiple sports, including softball and cheerleading, she wasn't much of a fan of running. But she did enjoy getting out of the house, and she especially enjoyed having a safe way to see her friends each day.
"My friend Jeanie Moughan drove me crazy with her singing and encouragement, and I kept going," said Kinard. After a few runs, her perspective of running shifted. "After a mile was manageable, it felt like anything was manageable."
Kinard set out to see just what she could do. Several adults on base were training for the annual summer triathlon series at the Osan Fitness Center, and they encouraged the young athlete to join in on the fun. The small, supportive community made Kinard feel like she could do anything and with each event in the three-race triathlon series, she found a greater confidence:
"There's just something about accomplishing a long swim, or bike, or run that leaves you wanting more," said Kinard. "I love swimming and cycling, and triathlon is my excuse to spend all day at the pool or on the bike. Finishing a race and knowing you're capable of finishing something big is a great feeling."
Kinard decided she wanted to share that feeling with others. Her experience as a triathlete inspired her to create a youth triathlon program on base to fulfill her requirements for the Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest award in Girl Scouts.
"I noticed that in the world of youth sports, triathlon is rarely seen," said Kinard. "Kids on the starting line were already runners, and maybe a few swimmers. I wanted to show that everyone and anyone can do a triathlon."
RELATED: How to Help Your Child (Not) Train for a Triathlon
To accomplish this, Kinard knew she would need to do more than simply teach kids how to swim, bike, and run. While doing background research on youth participation in sports, she found a large need for programming that addressed the needs of young girls. As she pored through the information on the barriers that keep girls from sport, she found much that resonated with her own experience:
"The amount of self-doubt and body image issues I see every day in not just high school students, but young elementary girls, is terrifying, I want to show young girls that anything is possible," Kinard said.
To address this issue, Kinard has developed a six-week mother-daughter triathlon camp for families on base. The camp includes training on swimming, cycling, and running, but also essential information for comfort and confidence in sport. "Every girl who runs needs a sports bra, and I want every girl at this camp to know that," said Kinard. "Proper nutrition is another area that needs to be addressed."
But the biggest lessons of this triathlon camp are centered around giving young athletes the same sense of confidence and empowerment Kinard gained through multisport.
"Every triathlon offers a chance to meet a new goal, whether PRing a time, doing a new course, or running a trail. Meeting those goals leads to the confidence I want girls, and kids in general, to have," said Kinard. "Whether they walk away from camp wanting to continue with the sport or not, I hope they believe in themselves."
UPDATE: Update: Kate Kinard was honored with the the Girl Scout Gold Award in February 2022.

Sometimes riding in a taxi can be a meditational journey. Staring out the window in a cab with a seated monk statue leading the way, it's the perfect time to clear out a cluttered brain. If the driver doesn't feel like chatting and if the radio isn't blaring, it's an ideal moment to take a deep breath and focus on a single positive thought. By the end of the ride you feel refreshed and ready to take on the outside world.
Of course, you don't need to be in a Bangkok cab staring at a Buddhist monk statue to meditate - you can do it anywhere. I have to admit, however, being in Thailand helps to set the mood.

This post was written with two of our amazing postdoctoral fellows, Brenna Hassinger-Das and Emily Hopkins.
On Tuesday, LEGO announced that it will cut 8% of its workforce by the end of 2017, due in part to flagging sales. Is this the death knell for traditional toys? We don't think so. Actually, many traditional toys and games are already adapting to changes in the play landscape brought on by digital technologies. Case in point: LEGO has revamped its business model over the last 20 years with forays into video games and digital toys. The LEGO Dimensions line combines physical LEGO figurines and sets with video games, and the LEGO Mindstorms sets let children build physical robot figures that they can then program and control from their computer or smartphone.
LEGO's ability to carve out its niche in the digital landscape reflects a broader trend for traditional play activities. The writing's on the wall that digital games and toys are here to stay--a 2013 survey by Common Sense Media found that 75% of all U.S. children under 8 years of age have regular access to a smartphone or tablet. Of those children, 63% used the device for playing games while 50% used other types of apps. The amount of time children spent on mobile devices per day tripled from 2011-2013.
Yet the pendulum may actually be starting to swing back toward the middle with the rise of hybrid digital/traditional toys, such as Osmo and ROX. These toy companies are attempting to tap into that sweet spot that combines physical with digital play. Osmo is a camera accessory that attaches to an iPhone or iPad and integrates children's physical actions with blocks, toys, or drawings into a digital game. In one instance, Osmo takes a tangram puzzle, invented in China hundreds of years ago, and reinvents it for a tech-savvy audience.
But do children learn as much from digital or hybrid toys as they do from more traditional play? Fortunately for parents and educators, research provides cause for hope. Recent research from our labs at Temple University and the University of Delaware, in collaboration with colleagues at Vanderbilt University, showed that children can learn vocabulary from an interactive story app. Other studies have supported the use of digital apps for exploring math. The Building Blocks curriculum designed by Dr. Douglas Clements and Dr. Julie Sarama includes almost 300 digital activities for Pre-K to 8th grade children. These games and activities are highly adaptive--they provide immediate feedback to players regarding their performance and tailor the game to the players' needs. Children from under-resourced backgrounds who completed this curriculum improved their mathematics knowledge more than a group taking part in the standard mathematics curriculum.
Why might these types of digital play be effective? According to Drs. Kathy Hirsh-Pasek, Jennifer Zosh, Roberta Golinkoff, and colleagues' 2015 piece for Psychological Science in the Public Interest, research in the science of learning suggests that the best play activities--be they digital or traditional--encourage children to be active and engaged, avoid unnecessary distractions, connect meaningfully to children's lives, and foster social interaction. Any toy or game that contains this combination of features has the potential to help children learn in a playful way.
Active learning means that children cannot be passive players. Watching a video or pressing buttons when prompted won't cut it. Children learn best when they have to make decisions to move a game forward. Children must also be engaged and not distracted by extraneous features. This is one area where many digital toys and games often fail. They add "bells and whistles" that are exciting, but do not contribute to the learning goal.
In a 2015 study, Dr. Zosh and colleagues found that when parents and children played together with a digital shape-sorting toy, they spent less time talking about shapes and more time talking about the electronic features of the toy compared to when they played with a traditional shape-sorting toy. Research on e-books has found similar results: A 2013 study by Dr. Julia Parish-Morris and colleagues in Mind, Brain, and Education found that children who read e-books had poorer understanding of the story compared to children who read traditional storybooks. When sound effects, animations, or other features do not relate directly to the story content, they distract rather than enhance.
It can also be difficult to make meaningful connections to children's lives with digital toys and games. Digital materials can't link up to children's experiences as effectively as parent or teacher comments can. So, when Brenna is reading with her son, she'll often connect the story to something in his own life. When they read Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?, she said to him, "Look! Do you remember when we were in Bear Country at the zoo?" These kinds of connections help make learning stick.
Finally, children learn a tremendous amount from social interaction. In fact, research on educational videos and apps has shown that children learn more when parents participate in these activities with them. A 2014 study by Dr. Alexis Lauricella and colleagues published in the International Journal of Child-Computer Interaction demonstrated that the amount of parent-child engagement during book reading was the strongest predictor of children's story comprehension; it did not matter if the book was digital or traditional.
When a digital toy or game combines these four features, it has the potential to serve as a powerful learning tool. Ms. Talia Berkowitz and colleagues designed an app to teach math that parents and children played together before bedtime. The app was kept simple with minimal sounds or animations to increase engagement and avoid distraction and the math content was presented in engaging stories to keep it meaningful to children. Their results (in a 2015 paper in Science) showed that among the families who played the game the most (2-4 times per week over the course of the school year), children gained 3 extra months of math achievement compared to peers. That is an astonishing improvement!
The message here is that parents don't necessarily need to fear for the digital natives. While the toys are changing, the magic of play is not. The challenge to parents and educators is to use any toy--digital or traditional--to support learning via active, engaged, meaningful, and socially interactive elements.

Valentine's day is here again. It's fun, it's fraught and … this blog's family oriented, so I'm going to stop there. However, as much fun as it is for the lovers of this world; spare a thought for the guy who works overtime all day long. Yep, Cupid.
Cupid took over from Eros. Well, when I say took over, Eros held the intellectual high ground on love, Cupid just picked up the more physical side of things (it was in his Roman genes). While Eros spent time posing for statues, Cupid just got down and, er, on with things. That gives the guy plenty to talk about, and fortunately, by the magic of email, he's agreed to give us an insight into his yet-to-be-published autobiography …
I was pretty young when I was approach to take the position of God of Desire. It seemed like a good gig at the time, so I signed up without reading through all the fine print. Boy, was that a mistake. Let me tell you, any Deity comes along with a contract for you to sign – make sure you read it all. These guys don't do things by halves, a few thousand years later and they still have me working by fingers to the bone, and I'm still a baby. But things are getting better, I've got a much more relaxed approach to the whole love-and-desire thing now.
Back in my early days, Eros gave me a bow and arrow. What's that you say? Stole? No, no, that was all a misunderstanding. I told Eros I was going to borrow it and give it back when I was done, and technically I'm not done, so there. His civil suit is just sour grapes, he's still a big draw on the modeling circuit, so what's he complaining about?
Ok, so there I am, bow and arrow in hand, wandering around, instilling lust and desire with a flick of the wrist. At least I was when my aim improved. To start with I just shot people in the butt, to wit the whole Dido and Aeneas saga. I told her at the time not to put all her faith in a Trojan, but would she listen? Different consequences, but it's the same story today of course …
After a few hundred years the Romans started getting out of hand. I had to run from one appointment to the next. There were arrows flying in all directions. I was exhausted all the time. That's when I put my foot down, or more specifically my arrows, and demanded wings. It didn't take long before the Gods were begging me to get back to work and the wings were on my back.
Now, wings are good. If you ever get the chance to try them, go for it, they're a blast. On the smiting-people-with-desire front they were pretty good too. I could get from one Roman orgy to the next in no time. I was popular at all the "in" parties and first on everyone's invitation list.
The next thousand years were a blast. With wings I cut out all the tedious walking around. Bow developments perfected longer and longer ranges, and before you know it I was able to just turn up in a town, sit in a burger joint and spread love and desire from where I sat. When planes and trains were invented I could travel in style, and boy did I clock up the frequent flyer miles. Course, I had to go first class, all those parties had plenty of food, and I do like my food.
People often ask why I've stuck with the bow. Well, I've tried other methods, but the bow is best. I tried daggers (a chat with some dude called Shakespeare about a chick named Juliet put paid to that idea) and bullets (the ricochets – wow, talk about love triangles). I did hold out hope for the glove. It didn't work, but it did teach me a lesson.
Ok, ok, I can hear you asking "a glove?" See, if you're going to toy with someone's affections, you can't just go up to them and have a quick chat. Well, not if you're a three foot tall cherubim who's a "touch" on the heavy side. No, in my case I need something to get people's attention. I experimented with various types of gloves, and settled on black leather. It gives a good smack and certainly gets the attention, besides, the pink fluffy one made the guys laugh at me. These things are important when you're a three thousand year old baby.
So things were going great; I was smacking my way from one lonely heart to another, and I didn't have to carry all those arrows (because you never get them back you know, no matter what they promise).
Now, I know what you're thinking, where's the glove today? Well, one day I was in France, slapped this guy on the cheek because he was patently ignoring the girl who was pining over him, and quick as a flash he's waving a sword, shouting duel and all sorts. Normally I'm not one to back away from conflict (I do start plenty of it, after all), but this guy was wild. He broke up the furniture, smashed the windows, and kicked my butt (and there was plenty of it at the time).
I was about to strike him off my list and banish him to eternal singledom when I had an epiphany, I was out of shape, seriously out of shape. I mean, I'm Roman, we like ours chubby (or at least we did before the Vandals turned up) but I was pushing it. So that was it, I was straight back to the bow, the arrows – and the treadmill.
These days I've dropped a bunch of pounds, I'm eating healthy and getting plenty of exercise. In fact, people say they don't recognize me (probably something to do with the love is blind thing). On the up side, I'm getting more done than ever – so if you've been waiting for that special someone, be nice, I might just be in your neighborhood this year!

Chain link from Stonehenge Fence is an easy-to-install, cost effective fencing option that offers security and durability
Chain link fences are commonly spotted around sports fields, pools, parks, and schools, as well as industrial or manufacturing facilities, and even many homes. Perhaps it's because chain link offers viable fencing solutions that resolve many problems relating to installation, cost, security, and durability.
Chain link fence is affordable
Compared with other available fencing options that offer visibility and strength, the cost of chain link is significantly lower. When installed by professional fencing contractors, your chain link fence will provide many years of service.
Chain Link is Low Maintenance
Chain link is much easier to install than other fencing materials. When properly installed, chain link does not require cleaning or refinishing because it's galvanized surface protects it from the elements and makes it resistant to rust, thereby reducing the need for maintenance.
Believe it or Not, Chain Link Does Offer Versatility
Chain link comes in several varieties, including color-coated surfaces, thickness variations, and style options. There is also California-style chain link which features such aesthetic qualities as wooden posts and rails, among other designs. As a point of interest, when chain link is vinyl-coated, it actually lasts longer than it's galvanized sibling.
Chain Link Fencing Offers Security
Often referred to as hurricane or cyclone fencing, chain link consists of interlocking coated steel wires that form a vertical zig zag design that is woven into a diamond pattern. These woven wire sheets are secured to steel posts firmly embedded in the ground.
Chain link is a good option for security if you're trying to keep pets or people in or out of your fenced area. These fences can be anywhere from three to twelve feet in height, and taller if necessary. Chain link is often found guarding homes, empty lots, playgrounds, sports fields, airports, and industrial buildings.
Before installing chain link fencing, make sure you consider the gauge of steel you'll need. Thinner chain link may be cheaper, but it will also be weaker, while thicker materials will cost more but last longer. Remember, too, that because of chain link's open weave, it isn't meant for privacy purposes. However, you can purchase slats to weave through the chain link and shield your home or property from curious eyes or unwanted attention. For increased security, you might also consider building your chain link fence at a taller height that can't easily be climbed over.
Chain Link continues to be a popular fence option when it comes to affordability, maintenance, and security. Recent improvements have made chain link more durable and aesthetically appealing. If you think chain link fencing will suit your needs, contact the fencing experts at Stonehenge Fence today!

As well as being a wedding photographer my background is as a UN award winning photojournalist, having worked for some of the world's most prestigious editorial clients. Getty Images, The Times and The Daily Telegraph have trusted me to cover breaking news events and state occasions, and to capture striking images of celebrities, top politicians and royalty. During my time, I have photographed subjects in almost every kind of light, weather, environment and emotional situation you can imagine – all to the minute-critical print deadlines of the front pages.
Now I enjoy being invited into people's special day… and having the creative freedom to capture elegant and timeless images that tell your story. I am sensitive and discreet, quietly observing your wedding to capture a spontaneous and relaxed record of your wedding day.
The majority of what I will capture will be the candid reportage you'll cherish forever, but it's always important to have some stylish portraiture too. I'll photograph the two of you together, but it will be relaxed and spontaneous – and I'll be quick so you can get back to your guests. If requested, we can shoot some groups of special people in your life, as i know often parents & grandparents really like to have these. Nobody likes hanging around and posing for ages so I'll make it fun and quick so you can then enjoy the party.
We are overjoyed with the photographs Bethany took of our wedding. She has an amazing eye and we have a beautiful album that really captures the essence of our wedding day, bringing back lots of lovely memories. Most of the time she blended into the background so much we didn't even realise we were being photographed which meant she caught some fantastic relaxed shots which were very reflective of character and personality. Bethany was incredibly friendly and professional, and organised the group shots quickly and efficiently. As someone who is not particularly comfortable in front of the camera she put me completely at ease from the start which is quite important when you are getting ready for one of the most important days of your life and feeling very nervous! We couldn't recommend her highly enough. Thank you so much for all your amazing work!Edward & Ruth
We found Bethany by chance on Instagram and she was one of the first wedding suppliers we booked because her style was so perfect for us and we loved her photos. We couldn't be happier with the photos she took for our wedding day. They are just perfect! We are not the type of couple who are comfortable in front of the camera and were a bit nervous about this part of the wedding but she made us feel so at ease and relaxed - we loved having her there to capture our big day and we feel so lucky to have found her. Bethany's style was relaxed which meant we and our guests weren't stood around posing for long periods of time, instead she was amazing at catching all of the priceless un-posed moments of the day and really caught all of the happiness and excitement which is so lovely to be reminded of when we look at the photos. Trying to choose the photos to put in our album is an impossible task - we love them all! We can't thank you enough Bethany!Naomi & Ben
I couldn't recommend Bethany highly enough. Oh my word where do I even begin to start?? We barely knew Bethany was there during our wedding day. She was very friendly, easy to get along with and embraced my ideas. The photos are beyond words! I've had comments that some of them look like they've come from a magazine. I am beyond, beyond happy and would highly recommend to other brides to be.David & Rachel

Frequently asked questions about Suriname
What are the entry requirements for Suriname?
German citizens need a valid passport and a visa to enter Suriname. The visa can be obtained on arrival at the border or in advance from the Embassy of Suriname in Brussels (Avenue Louise 379, 1050 Brussels, Tel.: +32 2 6401172) and from the consulate in Amsterdam (De Cuser Straat 11, 1681 CK Amsterdam, Tel.: +31 20 6426137) can be requested. Travel documents must be valid for six months after the trip. Visit watchtutorials.org for America continent overview.
What vaccinations do you need to travel to Suriname?
There are no compulsory vaccinations, but a yellow fever vaccination can be required for all travelers older than 12 months upon entry. The yellow fever vaccination is also medically recommended, as transmission may be possible in Suriname. In addition to the standard vaccinations, vaccination against hepatitis A is recommended. These include vaccinations for adults against pertussis, diphtheria and tetanus as well as possibly against measles, rubella (MMR), mumps and influenza. In the case of long-term stays, vaccination against hepatitis B and, in the case of particular exposure, to typhoid and rabies is recommended. In Suriname there is a high risk of malaria transmission all year round. The risk is particularly high in Sipaliwini and Brokopondo. There is little risk in the coastal regions and in Paramaribo. Malaria prophylaxis is not necessary, but is recommended. Due to the mosquito-related risk of infection, all travelers are advised to repeatedly apply insect repellent to all exposed parts of the body during the day, in the evening and at night, to wear clothing that covers the body and to sleep under a mosquito net. We urgently recommend taking out health insurance abroad, which should include repatriation.
Cities and places in Suriname
Central Suriname Nature Reserve
The Central Suriname Conservation Area is the largest nature reserve in Suriname and one of the most important protected rainforest areas in South America. The area of the reserve is 16,000 km² and it was created in 1998 through a merger of various national parks. The nature reserve was placed on the list of UNESCO World Natural Heritage Sites in 2000. Due to its great diversity of ecosystems, in addition to floodplains, mountain regions and the lowland rainforest, the area also has a diverse fauna such as otters, monkeys, sloths, tapirs, jaguars and over 600 species of birds.
Kabalebo is a lodge in the middle of the uninhabited Amazon rainforest. It is named after the Kabalebo River that flows through the region. There are hiking trails from the lodge to the base of Misty Mountain. The mountain hike to Misty Mountain (approx. 500 m) takes approx. 5 hours. It is the best way to get to know the rainforest with its diverse flora and fauna. Exotic birds, monkeys and with a little luck also tapirs or wild boars can be observed there. The summit offers a breathtaking view of the rainforest. You can take a boat tour of the Kabalebo River or cross the rapids in a kayak.
Suriname wildlife
Suriname has spectacular wildlife. Such as faucets, big cats and numerous species of birds. It is particularly interesting to watch the gigantic giant tortoises lay their eggs. They also like the tourist-poor beaches. If you are visiting the South American country at this time, you should not miss this event.
Paramaribo is the capital of Suriname. It is located on the Suriname River 2 km inland from the Atlantic and is the economic, political and cultural center of the country. It is a city with a multicultural history that is reflected in its architecture. It is a mixture of Dutch, French and later also American influences. Paramaribo has developed its own style, mainly using wood and less bricks. The large number of differently designed religious buildings shows that the city is multi-ethnic and multi-religious. The Fort Zelandia with the Suriname Museum, the old town with the wooden cathedral as well as the old port and the Asian-looking market are worth seeing.
