I just finished reading through Guy's new blog "let the good times roll." This is an obvious one to suscribe to if you are, or aspire to be, in the software game. Actually, for anyone considering or already in a startup - just subscribe. I've know Guy for a really long time, though not that well, but like many in our industry I've read all his books and seen him speak several times and feel like I know him. The most recent book titled "art of the start" is a fun, quick and informative read. Get it.
Two of his first posts are funny and informative as one would expect. There is one about PowerPoint pitches for investors and his most recent post titled "top ten lies of venture capitalists" is a good one. It seems like I've personally experienced them all - numerous times - over the past 20 years. That said I have also raised several million dollars for several businesses and often the first meeting with a VC is a "no." Relentless persistence is the name of the game in my view UNLESS you happen to have a business in a "white hot" sector that has already caught the attention of the hopelessly lemming like VC community. Several VCs passed on eBay. Nearly 100 anti-spam companies were minted. Go figure.

A new and very welcome development has been announced that is good news for the construction industry. The go ahead for the new £250m Center Parcs Village in Woburn Forest, Bedfordshire, which has been given to the multi-disciplined construction company of Edmond Shipway, may just be the turning point that the industry needs to bolster its tenacious hold on the economy and so help the umbrella companies within its fold.
The company will be acting as project manager and cost consultants for the build on the 360-acre site. There will be plenty for them to manage, with 625 lodges proposed plus swimming pools, a luxury hotel, sports facilities, and lots more besides.
Why is the building of Center Parcs good for the construction industry? The answer is because of the employment that it brings to that area through umbrella companies, and also because it will help to lift the constraints that the recession has put on the industry. It will also be a good time for the contract tradespeople, freelance engineers and consultants who rely on the work within the industry, as they will be added to the contractor payroll, have more money to spend, and so bolster the economy.
This project at Center Parcs is going to create 1,200 jobs within the building industry, and with a further 1,500 promised over the next two years it is the positive news that everyone involved in the construction industry needed. It is not just umbrella companies who will benefit; the suppliers and other tradespeople in the area will also see their cashflow improve.

I've been a goth for about 15 years now. And it still makes me smile.
People reactions make me smile. Because I don't look goth, see. I no longer dye my hair black, no longer paint my lips black, no longer wear black mesh tops and spiky collars. But I'm still the same. Still love the same architectural trends, the same artists, the same bands. I still do a lot of DIY stuff. But I don't look like what the typical goth cliché, so people are slightly embarrassed. I got used to it.
In France, they say being a blonde looks lame for a goth. In Manchester, they say it's interesting. Manchester is a gothic heaven. In terms of architecture, too. But I digress.
Funny that so many people don't realize DIY is a core base of the goth culture. Imagine my face when people say « I didn't know goth could sew/knit/paint/cook/enjoy gardening and watering the plants/you name it ». Yes, we love trying to do things on our own. Yes I love baking cakes and watering my toxic solanums. Yes I collected fabrics from a diseased neighbour and I'm planning to sew stuff with it. I love patchwork, I love velvet, I love mesh. I even tried doing patchwork with mesh but it was quite tricky. I love making lace, tatting, knitting, crocheting, whatever. As long as there are holes in it, I'm happy.
Talking about death. I'd be rich if I had earned a dollar each time I heard « goth are obsessed with death ». I don't think we are. But maybe we're better at copping with it. For me, death is part of life. It's horrid and nobody wants to deal with it, but you can't turn a blind eye on it, it's going to happen to everyone anyway. So maybe we're more comfortable with the idea of death because we had a long journey learning how to be at peace with it.
No goth likes to be defined. We're different. We're open-minded. We're happy. We're talented and strong.
Maybe that's not enough, but whatever. Life goes on.

text: Those who cannot afford to spend much money on bracelets with diamonds can get the bracelets embedded with colored stones. Rubies, emeralds, opals, embers and sapphires are very prevalent and these bracelets with stones add glitter and they change the look of the bracelet. These precious stones too are costly but small pieces will not cost you much. But one could be very careful while choosing these stones and bracelets. There are many fake diamonds and other stones that are available available in the market. They look real but they is probably not genuine. Ancient Egypt regarded the circle to be a logo of eternity, and the ring served to represent the perpetual love of the spouses. This was also the origin of the custom of dressed in the wedding ring on the ring finger of the left hand, because the ancient Egyptians believed that this finger enclosed a different vein that was attached without delay to the heart,[5] denominated in Latin the "Vena amoris". The Western traditions of marriage ceremony rings can be traced to historical Rome and Greece, and were first linked to the marital dowry and later with a promise of fidelity. The modern exchange of rings derived from the customs of Europe in the Middle Ages as a part of Christendom. [6] In the USA, wedding rings were at first only worn by wives, but became time-honored for both husbands and wives during the 20th century. [7]Historical stylesGimmel ringsGimmel ring with the ring opened, in the British MuseumWedding ring of groom and a bride with shadow in kind of heart – symbolic sense of loveDuring the 16th and 17th centuries, European husbands bestowed a gimmel ring upon their wives. The bride and groom both wore one of those bands after their engagement, and the two bands were reunited in the course of the marriage ceremony. Subsequently, the wife wore the combined ring. [5]Poesy ringsThe poesy ring was a mode of ring that was common in the course of the Renaissance era. It was a band of sterling silver inscribed with a poem or "poesy". [5]Other stylesDifferent cultures used many other historical types of wedding ring. For instance, see the picture below of the Byzantine ring depicting Christ uniting bride and groom. Even if the marriage rings do not match precisely, some a part of the pattern may be repeated in the design. Oftentimes, marriage ceremony rings, especially those given to or worn by the bride, are family heirlooms. When here's the case, the bride could have both the engagement and the marriage ring, or she may need to buy an engagement ring that will supplement the band. They can then choose a plain gold or white-gold band for the groom, in the event that they for practicality. When selecting wedding rings, it's very easy to be caught up in the fantastic thing about them and the stone size. However, couples should take into consideration their occupations, and this attention should include even if or not it is safe or maybe permissible to wear jewelry of any type on account of the nature of the job being carried out. Each level of readability can have a drastic difference in price. And lastly, carat weight refers to the size and weight of the stone. Size and certificationWhen you believe you studied that you just may have found the ideal diamond ring, your search is not over! You are looking to be certain that the hoop is the accurate size, and more importantly, that the diamond is licensed and that it is true. Purchasing your diamond ring from a relied on retailer, and instructing your self on the high quality of diamonds will be sure that you're happy with this critical purchase. Customer testimonials are a superb way to discover more about the company you are purchasing from. When we speak of character, that refers to the way an individual acts and speaks against folks.

It was so stinking awesome. The kids thought we were going to the airport to pick up a friend. We waited around the airport for about 20 minutes. My heart was racing like crazy and the kids were running around looking at all the dead animal heads...that might give you a clue as to where I live.
Once I saw Dad walk out of the gate, I looked at the kids and said, "Just kidding, we aren't here to pick up Mr. K...it is DAD!" Botht he kids looked around my legs, saw Dad and took off running. It was very cool. Bubs was definitely surprised, he looked at me straight in the eyes and said, "Wow, you're a good tricker Mom!". Griddles wouldn't let her dad's leg go the entire time, and a week later she is still super glued to him.

The Internet of Things (IoT) is transforming the way companies do business, communicate and engage with employees, customers and the world. It presents new and exciting opportunities for companies to grow their services and expand their reach while ensuring that staff are highly effective from anywhere at any time.
With the number of connected devices to exceed 50 billion by 2020, the IoT poses the biggest risk to information security within organizations. As the surface area of cybercriminals expands, protecting the intellectual property (IP), customer data and infrastructure of an organization has never been more urgent.
Organizations are not yet able to provide truly integrated environments that can manage and support all this connected technology. Not only are they faced with having to secure multiple devices and points, they are also expected to have wide-ranging response mechanisms in order to be effective at combating cyberattacks. This places huge strain on current networks and infrastructure.
Trying to keep up with securing the IoT is certainly a daunting task and it is fast becoming a critical business objective which requires a comprehensive and strategic approach.
This topic will look at the security risks of the Internet of Things (IoT) and why securing this space begins with trust. It will highlight the key factors that will pave the way to more integrated environments where technology and security can both be ubiquitous.

If you were to ask an average church-goer a to describe a normal youth pastor, you would probably get a thousand different answers. Many people believe we are messy, unorganized or maybe on the path to becoming a "real pastor".
At Youth Ministry Booster, we desire to change this view. Along with creating great resources to help boost youth ministries we want to be a voice of health and hard work in our calling. So, Youth Ministry Booster is creating a network of like-minded podcasts to help youth pastors and their people.
We'd like to introduce you to our newest podcast partner "When Are You Gonna Be A Real Pastor?", hosted by Zach Hummer and Ryan Baker.
We can't say enough great things about these two guys. Not only do we love their weekly podcast, but we love them as fellow youth pastors. Their honest humor and keen insight are invaluable. We also believe that they share in the vision of helping youth pastors grow in their calling and seeing the Kingdom impacted because of it.
"When Are You Gonna Be A Real Pastor?" is the official podcast of Alliance Youth, the Christian Missional Alliance youth ministry department. These guys live and serve out of the New England area and bring with them humility and wisdom that we all need. Click on the links below and subscribe to this amazing podcast. If you are anything like us, you'll binge listen to their older episodes. Trust us, it's worth it!
We look forward to working with Zach and Ryan and so many other people in days to come. We pray that God will use us to help shape youth ministry away from the illusion of pizza parties and winging it, towards a place of health and hard work. Keep listening! Keep serving! There are more exciting announcements to come!
Grace and Peace,
Zac & Chad

Angels foster parents are as diverse as our community as a whole.
They come from a broad spectrum of racial and ethnic backgrounds. Some are people of deep faith; others are casually observant or have no religious affiliation. They are gay, straight, single, retired, and military.
The two things Angels foster families all have in common are an unwavering commitment to the health and safety of young children in foster care. And people tell them on a regular basis that they could never foster because they'd get too attached.
Ashley and John Miles know where people are coming from when they say this. It is difficult to fall in love with an infant or toddler, then say goodbye once the child is reunified with his or her biological family. When Ashley read the book "The Middle Mom" by Christie Erwin*, a quote really brought it all into perspective for her, so she shared it with John. "In these situations, someone is going to get their heart broken. It's either you or the children," recalls John. "I'm a grown man, and I can shoulder this for them so they can experience love and attachment."
Ashley agrees wholeheartedly, saying that it's painful to say goodbye to children who have become part of their family. "There's a healing process for us, but we are also excited when biological parents are able to do the work to get their children back," she says.
Ashley and John had originally discussed adoption as a way to grow their family, which includes five-year-old Grace and six-year-old Cole. But when Ashley worked as a nurse at the Polinsky Children's Center, she saw firsthand the urgent need for foster families in San Diego. "It really opened my eyes because you saw the effect it had on children who didn't have a chance to attach with a consistent, compassionate foster parent in a home setting," she says. The couple also shares a strong Christian faith and say they "felt called by God to help those suffering in our community."
After attending an information session at Angels, Ashley and John decided to foster, and began the certification process. They say they received great education and training, and that they enjoy ongoing support. "I don't know how anyone does it without Angels," says Ashley.
Soon they got a call to foster baby "Joe," a four-month-old who stayed with them for nearly four months before he was reunified with his biological mother. Ashley says her greatest fear in fostering was that the biological parents would be hostile to her family, but she was pleasantly surprised. "The mom told me it gave her comfort to see that my entire family was caring for Joe as one of our own while she took the steps she needed," Ashley recalls. She says it was important to them that they properly navigate the relationship and establish trust with the biological parents. "We want to make sure they know that we are not trying to take their children, and that we are rooting for them," she adds.
When Ashley and John first started thinking about fostering, they wondered how it would affect their children. They were thrilled to discover that Grace and Cole bounced back quicker than they did. "The day Joe left, Grace was like, 'Okay, when do we get another baby?'" says John with a laugh.
Part of their children's resilience stems from the fact that the couple was direct and honest in their communication. Ashley explains that they simply told the children that Joe's parents couldn't take care of him at the moment, and the baby would be living with them until he could return to his family. Ashley and John say they tell their children that they are fostering to show love. "We tell them that a family needs help, and it is our job to love them and their babies while they get the help they need," says John.
Currently living with the Miles family is a little one, "Lily," who joined them at just a few days old after it became apparent that her biological mother had been using drugs. Fortunately, Lily showed absolutely no signs of drug withdrawal and has had a sunny disposition from the onset, say Ashley and John. Today the adorable girl sits on Ashley's lap with a shock of black hair and deep black eyes so wide she looks like a Disney character.
Lily is more than just cute, though. She is clearly well-loved by her foster family. Baby Lily smiles and maintains eye contact with strangers, and kicks her little legs with excitement when Grace approaches. As hard as it will be to say goodbye to Lily, Ashley says it's been a greater joy to have had her in the family.
The couple's advice for anyone considering fostering: "Go all in." They understand that sometimes adoption is a necessary outcome of fostering and consider it a great privilege, but also say the healthiest thing for them has been to love the babies, develop relationships with the biological families, and endure the roller coaster of fostering.

Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE - Get Report) posted mixed results for the fiscal fourth quarter ended Oct. 31.
Following Tuesday's closing bell, the Palo Alto, Calif.-based IT company reported adjusted earnings of 61 cents a share on revenue of $12.5 billion. Revenue declined 7% over the prior-year quarter. Analysts surveyed by FactSet expected EPS of 60 cents on $12.8 billion in revenue.
CEO Meg Whitman said during a conference call that Hewlett Packard Enterprise, which split from HP Inc. (HPQ - Get Report) in November 2015, is "on track" with some its moves to divest some $17 billion in assets.
Following the divestitures, the company "can be much more targeted in the investments we make," Whitman noted. "We ought to be able to run much leaner and meaner."
Despite operating in a competitive environment, Whitman said that the company's leaner structure will give it a "much smaller group of competitors." This allows Hewlett Packard Enterprise to have a more "laser-like" focus, she said.
"During our first year as a standalone company, HPE delivered the business performance we promised, fulfilled our commitment to introduce groundbreaking innovation, and began to transform the company through strategic changes designed to enable even better financial performance," CEO Meg Whitman said.
"This success is proof that we're on the right course," she noted.
Shares of Hewlett Packard Enterprise were falling about 1.2% to $22.60 in after-hours trading on Tuesday.
For the full year of 2016, adjusted EPS was $1.92, while net revenue slid 4% year-over-year to $50.1 billion. Wall Street was looking for adjusted earnings of $1.92 per share on revenue of $50.5 billion, according to FactSet.
Going forward, Hewlett Packard Enterprise projects adjusted EPS in the range of 42 cents and 46 cents for the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Wall Street is modeling earnings of 46 cents a share, according to FactSet.
For the full fiscal year, the company anticipates adjusted earnings per share between $2.00 and $2.10. Analysts estimate adjusted earnings of $2.04 a share.
CFO Tim Stonesifer said in the earnings call that the company experienced continued revenue softness in Europe in the fourth quarter. But performance in the U.S. was "encouraging," Stonesifer added.
Going forward, however, Whitman anticipates that Hewlett Packard Enterprise will see a total addressable market of approximately $250 billion, which she estimates will grow between 2% and 3% annually.
About 24.10 million shares of the company have traded hands so far today, well above the 30-day average volume of roughly 11.47 million shares.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise is a holding in Jim Cramer's Action Alerts PLUS Charitable Trust Portfolio. Want to be alerted before Cramer buys or sells HPE? Learn more now.

When the light is the brightest, the best shines through.
Each May, just like clockwork, the National Restaurant Association puts on a show. Not just any show, but, THE SHOW. The big one. A gathering so big that it takes one of the largest show spaces in the country to house it. And, if you arent careful it could swallow you up in one tasty bite.
This annual get together is intended to give restaurant industry types a peek into whats new on their scene. Its vast. It boasts nearly 2,000 exhibitors. Its WAY to much to attempt to cover in one day. Even with a plan of attack.
If youre looking for a couple of new menu items for your restaurant this is obviously a mega resource. If youre in the market for a brand new shiny cooler then this a great opportunity. Not only can you see it, but, you can touch it and play with it. Get an expert demo and maybe even haggle price. Its all there.
Heres some good news. Ive got a front row seat for you. You wont have to walk ten miles of aisles to get a glimpse of whats on the floor. I did it for you. Lets have a look at whats on display this year at the National Restaurant Show.
There was an all-star lineup of guest speakers. The biggest of the big make this show.
I got the opportunity to hear Bourdain. And, as you would expect in an uncensored and unfiltered environment filled with industry insiders he was at his best. Its a lesson in culinary storytelling 101. Highlights here.
When I attended the show two years ago, Coco Cola was just introducing their FreeStyle beverage dispensing equipment. Back then the line to try one out was LONG. Two years later it hasnt shrunk one bit. If you never had the opportunity of use one of these things, let me tell you its a fun pour. Youll never think of a Coke machine the same way again.
If youre looking for specialty cooking equipment this is pretty close to a one stop shopping experience. That plate of fried chicken above is cooked with equipment from the Broaster Chicken Company. People lined up a good long way for the chance to try it out. And, it was pretty damn tasty.
If you want to talk about lines, the discussion starts and ends with Vienna Beef. A line wrapped almost completely around their display space for a chance to sample a full sized, fully loaded Chicago dog. The line was so long they fed you samples of other Vienna products (can you say Ditka Polish Sausage) while you waited for the main course. It was, undoubtedly worth the wait!
Lets talk deli meats (and cheese). Every year Dietz & Watson puts on a display that is jaw dropping. Im not certain what it costs them each year to pull this off. But, I would imagine its a large number. It is almost like they have built a full sized, real deli right in the middle of the convention hall. Serving full size sandwiches to all who would like to sample them. No need for the Please use a toothpick sign here. A sign that reads both hands recommended would be more appropriate.
There are a delicious displays around each turn in the carpet. Here are some that really stood out.
Revisiting the show in printed form is exhausting enough. The full NRA show experience would require you to seriously consider a diet after it closes up shop. Luckily, you get all of the info and none of the calories by just reading

Last year, I attended the Reckless Girl's Active Wear Launch Party. (Recap here) This year, I had the lucky opportunity to partner up with @RecklessGirls once again for an exciting new work out at Plate Fits!
Platefit is a 30 minute full body workout program done entirely on a vibrating platform called a Power Plate. It's an effective work out where every muscle is ignited through the vibrations and high intensity work out.
Overall, I am a HUGE FAN of Plate Fit! I'm sure many of you all have a jam packed schedule like me, so having this short yet intense work out is JUST WHAT I NEED. I was dripping sweat and felt like I did a full hour work out at the gym. It focuses on strength training and cardio which burns twice the calories. I definitely underestimated the level of difficulty of this work out, but fell in love with the idea of challenging your body to do new and exciting things!
They have a new client special: $99 for one month of unlimited classes. This is pretty damn good considering their classes are only 30 minutes long, so you can take as many as you want!
Thank you Reckless Girls for inviting me and blessing me with the latest Young & Reckless Activewear!!!

Maidenhead United Reformed Church has its origins back in 1662, when the Rector of Henley left his living as a result of the Act of Uniformity. A few years afterwards a Congregational Chapel was erected in Back Lane, which is now West Street.
The main part of the present sanctuary dates from 1785, with modifications in the 19th century and recently in 1988. We became a United Reformed Church in 1972 when The Congregational Church in England and Wales united with the Presbyterian Church. In 1981 the Churches of Christ were added to our number. The Congregational Union of Scotland joined the United Reformed Church in April 2000.
The United Reformed Church remains a small denomination in the United Kingdom but our membership of the World Alliance of Reformed Churches unites us to a large and worldwide fellowship of churches within the Protestant tradition.
In the United Reformed Church each local church is responsible under God for its worship programme and its witness and service to the local community. We observe the gospel sacraments of baptism and holy communion and submit ourselves to the Bible as the highest authority for our faith and action.
We hold a regular church meeting of members, and an elected body of elders shares the pastoral and spiritual leadership of the congregation with the minister.
The United Reformed Church is committed to pray and work for the unity of the church. We are a member of Churches Together in Maidenhead and work in close co-operation with all local churches.
In January 2014 the buildings behind the church were demolished to make room for new commercial facilities including a hotel and an underground car park.
Today a broad range of activities takes place in the church buildings, run both by the church and organisations from the community of Maidenhead. New residents in Maidenhead are given a warm invitation to join us in worship and other activities.
We need new people to grow and continue God's work in Maidenhead. We would love you to join us.

Hi Everyone,
I had to make 2 birthday cards for my son's friends birthday that happened to be the same day. So, the cards that I'm about to share are the quickest cards I made so far this year.
I hope you all like them.
These are 4x4 cards. Different shades of blue cardstock, embossing folder, green ribbon and stamp. I have never made 4x4 cards before and I like them. I even made the envelopes to go with them too.
So, these are simple and really quick to make. The party was pretty nice. They had a Magician and it was really cute. It was scorching hot outside but it was still hot inside with so many kids and adults. Great party none-the-less, my son had a blast.
Thanks everyone for stopping by today. Have a great week.
Take care,
White and 2 shades of Blue Bazzil Cardstock
5x7 Polka Dots Cuttlebug Embossing Folder
Stamp from Lexicon of Love Stampin Up Set (r)
Green Ribbon from my stash

If you don't know any recruiters in the area then we have good relationships with a number of recommended recruiters and fieldwork agencies. We can either organise the whole recruitment process or can simply put you in touch with a supplier so that you can sort it out directly – it's entirely up to you.

Call us on 0161 834 3396 or email firstname.lastname@example.com
Thanks so much for making everything run so smoothly this week (and leading up to it). The respondents were great and so was everything about the facility. We really appreciate your efforts to reschedule floaters and give us a day of rest!

I just thought I would share some images from the wedding of David & Manny which took place on Saturday at Emirates Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth. It was such a lovely day and the sun was beaming in the sky. Gunwharf Quays is the home of The Spinnaker Tower and it is the perfect location to hold a wedding. Especially for David & Manny as Manny's family were coming over especially for the wedding.
Just to give you a little taster of what we got up to on the day, I've put together a selection of my favourite images and I think you will agree, the gents look great!
I would just like to say a huge thank you to both David & Manny for letting me be a part of your special day. We had a great laugh on the day and it was so nice to spend it with your friends and family. I just like to say a huge congratulations to you both and its clear from spending time with you, that the love you have for each other will be everlasting. Here's to many years of happiness together and may your love grow and grow.
Together, Forever, Believe & Achieve

A growing number of homeopathic treatments can be found for relieving common symptoms and maladies. Instead, it requires that homeopathic medication include components listed within the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States, a database that's managed by the nongovernmental Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia Convention of the United States. Homeopathic medicine is the alternative medication that utilizes micro measure of matter from the plant, mineral and animals to arouse a persons' natural healing reaction. As paradoxical as it might appear, the higher the dilution, when ready in this dynamized way, the more potent the homeopathic treatment. It can be utilized to treat circumstances for which conventional medication has no effective treatment.
The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) has declared that, A systematic evaluation has found that homeopathic cures in high dilution, taken under the supervision of trained professionals, are typically thought-about safe and unlikely to cause severe adversarial reactions." There are no identified interactions between standard medication and homeopathic medicines.
Herbal drugs is nicely-known all through history; in the US, it was utilized by settlers and natives alike for all the pieces from headache cures to poultices for wounds. In 1991, the French government did a research on the price of homeopathic drugs, and located that it costs half as a lot to deal with patients, contemplating all prices concerned. The FDA is mulling this over and has not yet introduced any choices about whether to change how they regulate homeopathic drugs. I consulted with a homeopathic veterinarian, and his protocol of remedies saved my horses life.
He has keynoted, led plenary sessions, breakouts and supplied visitor lectures for dozens of organizations starting from the Bastyr University to the Association of American Medical Colleges, the UCLA School of Medicine to the Institute for Health and Productivity Management, the AANP and AIHM to the American Hospital Association. As a end result, homeopathic therapeutics support and enhance a affected person's general health and nicely-being. Because of their lengthy observe file of security, the FDA permits the vast majority of homeopathic remedies to be bought over-the-counter without a prescription.
Dr. Fedrick Samuel hahnemannan is founding father of homeopathic therapy of drugs earlier than 200 yrs. If you retailer your package away from electrical appliances, robust smelling substances and extremes of temperature, the shelf lifetime of the treatments is greatly prolonged. A license to practice medication doesn't guarantee that a practitioner is an efficient homeopath.

Discussion in 'Deer Hunting' started by beauhunter41031, Nov 7, 2018.
How about both!

Didn't say do it in the woods in the stand!
There's several guys on here who have already cashed in their buck tag... and might have a little time to kill for the next few weeks.
I'm sure someone would be willing to offer up a little "guide & companion" service to keep her occupied .....and out of your hair so you can chase some booners.
Just sayin.
Wait until she has the biggest deer of many mounts hanging in YOUR man-cave. I'm living proof it happens! All those guys whining about "I wish my wife would go with me," or " I wish my wife would understand my passion for the outdoors." Be careful what ya' wish for; just sayin...……… all kidding aside, wouldn't have it any other way.
The only time my buddies wife EVER saw a big one is when I took her huntin' those 3 times. I told her sister-in-law I'd put her on big on a big one too, but her husband wouldn't let her go.
My buddies wife is going Saturday for the first time. I told him OH BOY watch her kill the biggest Buck. You wont live it down.
Are we still talking about deer? Lol
Yes. My buddies wife took the 3 biggest ones she ever took. All 3 were 8's.
Lmao at some of the comments. Man that's funny.
I love it when my wife goes. She's got a 130" 8 point on wall now. First year we hunted together but after that we hunt separate but I still take her to the stand and come get her at dark. Her request. She scared of dark. I wouldn't have it any other way. Kinda feel lonely when I go by myself.JUST KINDA. LOL.
Don't make that mistake with the next one!
Yes, please post a picture.
Oh gotcha! Thought maybe since you were a carpenter you may have been showing those women your hammer.
If she gets her way you'll see her in the deer harvest photo thread

Dear parents of future students
The mere fact that your search for quality studies led us to our institution means a lot to us! Let us at least briefly describe why PAR is the right choice for your student.
Orientation towards the future and present action are the keys to success that this first private institution of higher education of Primorje-Gorski Kotar County communicates to its students through the educational program. In recently conducted surveys, PAR students identified the atmosphere of the studies and the accessibility of the professors and staff as one of the incontestable advantages of studying at PAR. We are extremely proud that we can provide an environment in which students can develop to their maximum potential.
We offer students more than a degree. By combining the academic and practical approach with a real world environment, we offer students knowledge in accordance with the needs of the market.
The professional study program of Business Management combines the educational system and the economy, and is modeled on the example of the methodological concept of the European professional studies that put emphasis upon gaining experience and orientation to the labour market through a three-year study:
1st year of study: general and basic economics courses
2nd year of study: professional courses customized for business management
3rd year of study: courses from the fields of finance and logistics and the acquisition of professional competencies through practical experience.
The Business School PAR connects theory and practice through extracurricular activities. The students of PAR have an opportunity to take part in international schools, international conferences and student educational trips. Added value is created by the possibility of the inclusion of students in the organization of events and the implementation of projects through the PAR student business incubator.
Employability of the students of PAR following completion of the studies is over 75 percent. One of the innovations in the approach to the professional student practice is the PAR student business incubator, which represents a simulation of the work environment. By acquiring practical experience and early exposure to the real work environment, students are given a different perspective and a real advantage in the labour market.

I went shopping yesterday. I went shopping and I bought: a black, buttoned blouse. Since I could fill a small apartment with blacks, blouses and buttons, this purchase may become categorized as completely irrelevant. But it was just so pretty.
The incident took place at Supergoods. Have a look at the webshop, you'll understand my moment of insanity. Besides the gorgeous women's wear, there are goodies for every member of your family - I'd kidnap a baby just to try on one of the cute crawlers. And the furniture and carpets make me want to rob a bank, buy the entire collection and go back to redecorate the bank office.
Before you think I have serious issues: the store's baseline says Good Stuff for Good People, and baselines never lie. By shopping here you either save a rain forest, reduce the ozone hole or keep a living creature alive. It's all about ecodesign and fair fashion: except yourself, you satisfy at least a tree or two. Win-win!
So no, I'm not a shallow-brained compulsive shopper. I use my head, I listen to my heart and I'm considering a mild form of therapy for occasional overspending.

Christmas has come early this year, electronic dance music fans. Not only has EDM DJ/producer Wolfgang Gartner released his new studio effort, Weekend in America, this week — which features Eve, Omarion, and Cam'ron and Jim Jones on a collection of already-released singles like "Ménage à Trois," "818" and "Forever" (featuring will.i.am) — but he's also got a new video he's set to release for a single that's already a fan favorite. And MTV News has the exclusive teaser for the video.
Writer/director/special-effects star Steven Ilous — part of the special-effects design crew that brought you the game-changing graphics displayed in "The Matrix Reloaded" and "The Matrix Revolutions" — helmed the new video for "Space Junk," a clip that shows the "before, during and after" of a full Wolfgang Gartner stage experience.
The video was shot at the famed Avalon nightclub in Los Angeles in April, during Gartner's 30-plus-date North American tour, and starts with a long time-lapse tracking shot as the stage crew moves in and begins setting up Gartner's famed "Medusa" stage lighting setup (from the designers behind deadmau5' "Cube" and Daft Punk's "Pyramid").
The teaser for the video ends just before the lights go off and "Space Junk" kicks into overdrive. To catch a glimpse of the full video, fans have to wait until Thursday at 4 a.m. when it will premiere on MTV Clubland, an hour-long video playlist on MTV dedicated to all things EDM. This Thursday's episode will feature a video playlist curated by Gartner himself. Don't miss it!

Mary explains if she tried preventing, or immediately treating her sexual dysfunction side effects from brachytherapy.
I will be very honest. I didn't counter the side effects because the medical profession was not honest with me that I would have them, and I am a single woman, so it really affected my personal and dating life. And that's something that people have, you know, they see you're healed, you look great and all that, and you feel great. I have no fear of dying of cancer because what good does that do anyway, but there's quality of life issues that it affects, and they are the most personal things. So it's hard to talk about them, and that's what makes it so difficult. So, that's what I love about this is that we're making it okay to talk about it, and we're making it okay to ask the question.

Small Business Profile: Julia Okun, Owner of rennes - Philadelphia
Hi Julia! Tell us a little bit about yourself.
My name is Julia and I run a shop called rennes in Philadelphia, PA. I like design, archaeology, and a good mystery novel. I like creating an atmosphere through visual storytelling and rennes is how I do that.
What led you to begin rennes?
I started rennes shortly after I graduated college in 2008 in Boston. Initially it was a leather bag line. I couldn't find a bag I liked without any hardware so I started buying leather and sewing my own. After a few months I broke both my own home sewing machine and my Mom's so I bought an industrial one on craigslist. It grew very slowly. First it was my own line, I was sewing everything, then I wanted to do wholesale so I couldn't sew it all, so I found a local factory to make them. I did that for a while, but I found that it was hard to reach my customers online. Also leather manufacturing in the USA is really expensive and for the most part I didn't see my audience seeing the value in paying for that. It's unfortunate but it's true so I decided to pivot. I love fashion so I started picking up other brands to carry online as well, and fast forward a few years and now I have a shop selling all those brands.
Tell us more about the origins of the brand's name.
It's silly and I'm embarrassed; it's kind of like when you name your first pet when you're five years old, but it's ended up working out rather well, even though it was unintentional. My Mom had given me a copy of Holy Blood, Holy Grail, kind of the book that The Da Vinci Code was based on, because I like that kind of stuff. Most of it took place in the Pyrenees in France in Rennes-le-Château. For some reason I decided, why yes, of course that's what I'll name my shop! And no one could pronounce it. So someone, very wisely, said I should shorten it to Rennes, so I did, even though Rennes is in a completely different place in France. And still no one can pronounce it.
You sew and design your own clothing items and leather goods. What is your inspiration and process behind making those items?
Mainly that I don't like name brand things. I want things that don't have a brand or logo, I want them really simple and empty of imposed identity. For design it's mainly material-driven with some historical influence. Usually I'll find a material and then I'll be inspired to make something from it. Right now with the shop just opening I'm taking a hiatus from designing. The next time I start sewing and drafting I want to be very focused and make just one or two perfect dresses or bags rather than focusing on making lots of them.
How do you source the items you have in the store that aren't your designs?
I mostly carry brands I've been a fan of for a long time or I own some of the pieces. Or then there's a random discovery at a trade show or on Instagram. The main thing that's important to me above anything else is quality and fabric fiber content, even over design.
You recently moved from your studio in Boston to a stunning storefront in Philadelphia. What was your reason for the move and how has the change affected your business?
My husband Jesse and I decided to move last fall because we were tired of feeling priced out of Boston. I love Boston - it's a wonderful city with great things, but it feels limiting financially and we felt stuck. The storefronts available for rent there are so overpriced and many of my favorite shops had either gone out of business in the past five years or were about to close.
Jesse grew up in Philly and we visited often so it felt like a good match. I'm a big fan of all the architecture here and it still feels like an undiscovered gem. For the shop I picked the neighborhood of Old City which reminds me of how Soho was a long time ago. There are lots of restaurants and little boutiques.
I think just having the brick and mortar shop has changed how rennes is perceived, even online. I think it's made it go from being an adolescent to being a grown up.
Do you have a team? What steps did you take to build it?
Nope it's just me for the whole week and Jesse helps with the books and odds and ends on the weekend. In Boston I had someone helping me sew, but right now it's just the two of us.
How do you connect with your customers and community?
I've gotten to meet a lot of the people who live locally in the neighborhood, many people who say they've been wanting a shop like ours to come for a long time. There's a vibrant creative community here. I've been able to meet lots of other shop owners and makers and that has been wonderful.
What are some brands/designers that you are excited about that we should know of?
Right now I'm most excited about Veritecoeur from Japan and also Casey Casey from Paris. Both make lovely pieces and it's hard not to want to keep everything from them when it arrives!
Why do you think it's important to shop small and support local makers?
Local makers and small shops are vital in keeping communities alive and fresh, without them all cities and towns would look the same and where's the fun in that?
What is your favorite thing about your workspace?
My favorite thing is that I get to have my shop in the front of the store and I get to have my studio in the back. Having everything under one roof makes me much more productive than if I was to have all my sewing machines somewhere else. It also gives a chance to tell a story to customers who are curious to hear more.
What makes you passionate about the work that you do?
For me it's about capturing the perfect moment, whether that's in a photo, styling an outfit, or sewing tiny buttons in a row, it's about finding that perfect combination. I don't know why but it makes me happy.
What are some of the setbacks or challenges you faced when starting rennes?
It feels like there have been too many to count! But I've always learned to recover or change and it all works out okay in the end. For me a challenge is a feeling that I should have done more by now. I feel like after 8 years I should have more to show for myself. I always feel like I should be posting online more, doing more shoots, buying more things to sell, sewing more, finding a factory, etc. but at the end of the day I'm one person wearing lots of hats and doing the jobs of about five people. So I have to give myself some slack.
At The Glossary, we believe in women working together and helping one another. Why do you think it is important for women to support each other?
I think it's important for women to support each other because men have essentially dominated the business industry for an incomprehensible amount of time, and as a result women are not taken seriously in business. On a day to day basis it doesn't always affect me, but certain situations, like negotiating leases, working with a factory, etc. - it can feel like you are being talked down to. Patronizing phrases like "sweetie" are used and you think, "you wouldn't talk to another man like that." Sometimes I even get frustrated at how some women talk to each other, sometimes using the same diminutives and I feel the condescending tone still remains. We need to find a new way to be assertive and strong as women without the culture of being made to feel bad about expressing our opinions and ideas.
What creative women do you find inspiring?
When I started, the fashion / maker blogging community (real blogs, not instagram) was really inspiring. There were so many creative people doing really wonderful things and I miss that now and can't believe how much time has passed since then!
Was there any particular person who helped shape your career in formative way?
My high school played a huge part in shaping me. The teachers I had there were phenomenal: my Latin teacher, my theater and visual arts teachers, my history teachers - they gave me such a solid foundation. Also the students who went there were really good people. I gained a lot of confidence there in who I was and that it was okay to be a little different because at the end of the day everyone's different.
What have you learned from owning your shop that you think can apply to any creative endeavor?
When you own a business there are so many things that are going to get thrown at you and you'll be like "what? what is this? I didn't ask for this!" - so you're going to have to learn to pick your battles of what's important and what's less important. It's important to learn to prioritize. Also that not everyone is going to "get" what you're doing and that's okay. I have so many people walk by everyday and they're like "what the heck is this?" or my favorite "I think this is an Amish store." But there are so many people who are happy that we are here and I have so many lovely customers, so it's all about finding your niche.
What are you looking forward to in the coming months?
I always get excited when new arrivals come in. I'm excited to get to know the community here in Philly more and maybe have events or workshops.
What tools or resources have been most helpful for you in creating your business?
In terms of manufacturing, there are so many more resources now than there was when I started. Eight years ago I dug through the depths of the internet to find anything on where to buy or fix an industrial sewing machine, but now it seems like it's a standard thing to own one if you make clothes or bags. The internet has really changed everything. Other people in the industry too are also the best resources.
How do you manage a work/life balance?
It's hard. When I just had a studio and online store I could put it away easily at night or on the weekends. Now it's much harder to take time for myself after I go home or on the weekends. Right now I work six days a week and I take Sunday off so Jesse and I can have a day together. At the beginning of July I made myself take a vacation and we went away so that was really nice. For the most part I put work aside and tried to "be here now". But I inadvertently see things I want to photograph, end up on my computer editing, then posting, and they you're in this place where you're kind of working but kind of not. I think I've just learned to accept that this is how it is when you have a business.

FROM CHEERLEADING TO STREET DANCE! For Wirksworth Infants
Since September children from Wirksworth Federation of Infant Schools have been taking part in daily interactive 'Cyber Coach' wake up sessions. Each class lasts between 5 and 10 minutes and includes activities such as T'ai chi, aerobics and disco. The sessions have been so popular they now run an after school Cyber Coach club where children take part in workouts ranging from cheerleading to street dance!
Headteacher Jo Poyser said: "This is a wonderful opportunity for children to take part in fun physical activity, whilst increasing their fitness levels. The children love taking part in the workouts and we have noticed how in just a few months skills and confidence in PE has been given a big positive boost."
Bamford & Great Longstone both heading for regional finals
Representing the SSP in the recent primary school football competitions both Bamford and Great Longstone Primary Schools have become County champions in successive weeks. In the small schools competition, Bamford beat teams from 9 other districts. This outstanding performance came on the back of their recent win in the SSP primary sports hall athletics. Head teacher Neil Hobson said: "I'm so incredibly proud of the children. We are a tiny school with limited facilities but we work hard to foster a love of sport. The team really gave this everything they've got & I'm pleased to see it paid off. They've worked hard & deserve the success"
Fingers crossed they can keep this winning streak going as they head for the regional final at Nottingham University on Saturday 8th March. The same good wishes go to Gt Longstone who won the "Big" schools County football event. Guided by the skill & dedication of PE teacher, Linzi Gaywood, her team gave strong performances to win their pool and the final. Linzi said: "Our pupils were competing against Primary Schools who are in fact still twice as big as them. Their performance is an exceptional achievement."
HIGHFIELDS PRIMARY CLUSTER LED A MERRY DANCE – by Year 12 Sports Leader
More than a hundred Key Stage 1 pupils from six primary schools in the Highfields cluster came together for an annual festival. Nine Sports Leaders UK dance leaders assisted.
School Sports Coordinator Jayne Allen said: " I was especially proud of year 12 student Hannah Postlethwait who led one of the teaching groups as part of her assessment for to qualify for her Sportsleaders UK Level 2 Dance Award. It's great to introduce both boys and girls to dance at a young age and shows the wide range of physical activity available in our schools."
QEGS U18s RUGBY MAKE IT TO QUARTER FINALS
Ashbourne students take on top public school rugby giants in national competition
Foul weather may have recently brought the traffic on our roads to a standstill but it didn't deter QEGs U.18s rugby team from making it through to the last 8 in this top National Competition on a snowy February day before Shrovetide gripped the town. Reaching the quarter finals of a National Competition is no mean feat for a state school competing against the rugby "giants" from the public sector schools. Top public schools usually fielding their own rugby coaches are often training or competing most afternoons throughout the Winter months.
The success at QEGs is down to the fantastic commitment of the PE Department coupled with excellent links to the local Ashbourne Rugby Club where many of the PE teachers also play and coach and almost all of the school team play in addition to their school matches.
Martin Farr, Head of PE, said: "Being in the last eight of the competition we know we will be up against the best in the Country so it'll be tough, but the lads work hard & are a very talented bunch of dedicated rugby players who are a genuine pleasure to be around." Our best wishes to them in their quarter final match against St Ambrose College, Altrincham.
Good luck in the Nationals!
Strong District teams and individual runners from schools in the Rural Derbyshire School Sport Partnership stormed to victory in the County Championships earlier this month. Excellent performances earned medals with the top 8 positions qualifying for the County team who will compete in the Schools National Championships due to take place in Derbyshire next month.
There were some outstanding performances worthy of a mention – Anthony Gell students Ellie Smith just missed out on a medal in 4th place in the year 7 girls race but still qualifies for the County squad. Amy Stone won the Junior Girls event & Cameron Orr took bronze in the Junior boys race with Daniel Evans (QEGs) in 7th and Joe Hallas (AGS) 10th in the junior boys race. In the Inter boys, Ollie Sadler of QEGs was 10th making him reserve for the County. Other notable performances came from Emma Erskine (Highfields) who took first place in the senior girls with Tamsin Boam taking bronze.
We wish them all the very best of luck in the Nationals in March.
QEGS push LMS all the way in close finish
Students from Lady Manners were on top form for the finals of the SSP sports hall athletics champs in February. Always a supremely noisy affair, this competition to determine the district teams sees teams of athletes from the four Secondary schools throw, jump and run over different distances in this relatively new addition to the busy sporting calendar.
Jayne Roach PE teacher at Lady Manners and school sport co-ordinator for the SSP, who coached the teams to success said: "In this hotly contended winter event, points were close from the outset. QEGS students pushed Lady Manners all the way. Some very close finishes in races towards the end of the evening meant that in the final results for the four categories, only one point separated LMS & QEGs in first & second place in the year 8 girls."
Results meant the LMS teams were victors in three of the four competitions – year 7 & 8 girls and year 8 boys with QEGS winning the year 7 boys event. Worthy winners, they will represent the SSP in the County finals in March.
