I met the Gessaman family at Bob Heirman Wildlife Preserve on the a blustery fall morning. We had the most beautiful light streaming through the trees! Adam and Brenda are so warm and sweet, and also had a big surprise to unveil: they're expecting another little baby in June! They even came prepared with an awesome chalkboard sign for Eli to hold. Eli is such a cutie with those big, curious eyes and adorable giggle. His laugh was so infectious! We walked through the foresty area, across the big field and through the tall grass, and even ran past (and sometimes in!) a few puddles. There is no shortage of love and kisses for his little guy. I had so much fun with such a happy go-lucky family! Thanks Gessaman family for choosing the Happy Film Company for your Seattle Family Portraits and CONGRATULATIONS on your new addition! :)

I'm putting this in activism rather than "Québec" or "labour and consumption" as it is a call for action, and I certainly hope there are similar initiatives elsewhere, about the shameful impoverishment of workers.
No surprise that the Liberal Minister of Finance here, Carlos Leitao, thinks that the minimum wage is "appropriate". Screw him.

Hey Confident Lady!
This week we are back with my series on Six Figures Year One with Integrity. So much goodness has happened recently, between celebrating my one year Biz-versary in October, announcing Baby C who will be arriving in the spring, and sharing with you all the insights I learned through being forced to lean back in my business for an entire quarter in 2016. You know I am super transparent in all that I do and I feel like there has been one thing I may have not been so transparent about…...INCOME and specifically, creating over six figures year one in my business.
My goal in business has always been #1 IMPACT-- which when done right will provide an INCOME. I want to shine a light that you CAN create a profitable business with integrity, a servant's heart, all while making an IMPACT! I want to INSPIRE you by revealing some key points and providing you with the next steps to get you to that place you desire to be at. Each week for the next three weeks we will be focussing on one specific insight into what it takes to run a profitable, sustainable, and freedom living impactful business. Please remember that just because something worked for me, doesn't mean it will be the same for all. Ok let's dive in and start with week Two's theme of Faith:
Insight #1: My faith is really the ULTIMATE reason why I have been able to create a six figure business in just one year of launching. God is my foundation for everything, including my ethics, integrity, drive, confidence and mindset. I know not everyone reading this has the same beliefs as me, I completely respect this, AND I can't help but share how having belief in a power higher than yourself is crucial in business. We can NOT do this alone. For me, that power is God, having a personal relationship with him, and being aware and in sync with his plans for me. Having a relationship with him gives me a sense of peace that no matter what disappointments may come my way, they are ultimately leading me to an even better path than I could have imagined.
Insight #2: Run your business through serving. A big part of my faith is serving and giving back the blessings that have been given to me. So from day one I knew I wanted to run my business in a way that would allow me the time and money to give and make an impact. My goal in business is to be able to impact at least a million people in some way throughout my life. I was told early on when I launched that I "gave way too much and no one would have an incentive to want to work with me". This CRUSHED my spirit. It was a struggle for some time with me living in fear that I in fact WAS giving too much and wouldn't be taken seriously. A good friend and mentor put me in check and reminded me that THIS is just who I am (a giving person) and it would be out of alignment to try to act otherwise. That day I committed to giving in my business however that felt good for me at that moment. And guess what? Even after giving away over 100 free coaching calls and thousands of dollars of programs in the form of scholarship, I STILL brought in over SIX FIGURES in income. What a testament to the power of sticking to your values and not wavering because of fear or lack mindset.
Insight #3: The power of Surrender aka faith over fear. Early on in year one when I was sporadically earning a sale here and there I definitely experienced some fear BIGTIME. I realized that I could let that fear grow and snowball in my mind OR I could instantly hand it over to God through prayer. This is when I learned the power of surrendering. You can work hard and do all you can in your power to control an outcome, but ultimately, there is no such thing as controlling an outcome, only God can do this. So rather than fixate on say how a discovery call went after I would cast that anxiety over to him. I would say "God, I did my best, I will not worry about the outcome, because ultimately that is out of my control". So in order to remember to make this happen, I set an alarm on my phone for noon each day that popped up and said the words "I Surrender". We all have a choice, let go of the outcome and let happen what's meant to happen.
Insight #4: Renewing of my mind. I can't tell you how many uplifting or faith based podcast episodes I listened to year one in business. And many of them, MULTIPLE times. What you fill your mind with dictates how you perceive the world and react to life situations. I can remember old 9-5's hearing people complain 24/7 about how much the job sucked. And guess what? It eventually got to me and I found myself doing the same. We have the LUXURY of being our own boss to ONLY fill our minds with positive words. So almost daily I would listen to a midday pick me up or morning inspiration podcast to help set the tone. Not only would it uplift me, fill my mind with positive words, but it also provided me with SO MUCH inspiration to go back and use in my business! A lot of what I talk about comes from sermons or podcasts I have listened to and been inspired by.
Insight #5: Know that if you want God to do his part in your business, you MUST do your part. Yes, surrender your fears and outcomes, BUT make sure that you are working diligently to get yourself closer to your desired outcome. For example, I hear about manifesting ALL the time-- "just manifest or pray and your dreams will come true. Write down 100 times in your journal that you have a six figure business, visualize it, and pray for it every hour and you will get it". Umm pleaseeeeee do not fall into this trap. In order to possibly get closer to your goal, you MUST put in the hard work. You can't just sit there and manifest or pray to God to make it happen for you, you've gotta actually take the steps to get yourself in that direction and THEN let God do the rest. It also feels even better surrendering when you know you have done ALL that you can in your power to set make happen what you desire and now the rest is up to God!
What are your thoughts on these insights? Do any really hit home with you or confirm something you've been feeling for some time? I'd love to hear your feedback and even experience with this. Please share below in the comments. If you'd like even more support in your business, let's hop on a Discovery Call to talk about how I can help you meet your goals through some mindset coaching.

THE LEDE: On Tuesday, the House will vote on a bill that makes tweaks to the video marketplace while reauthorizing the law governing satellite television. That law, the Satellite Television Extension and Localism Act (STELA), is set to expire at the end of the year, which would leave roughly 1.5 million Americans, mostly in rural areas, without access to NBC, ABC and other programming.
The bill in front of the House on Tuesday goes beyond simply reauthorizing STELA. As a result of a bipartisan compromise out of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, the bill will also make some changes to the way broadcasters negotiate with cable and satellite companies, eliminate a federal requirement for specific security equipment in cable boxes and give broadcasters more time to unwind resource-sharing arrangements that the Federal Communications Commission effectively banned earlier this year.
While Democrats on the Committee pushed for more reforms, Republicans led by committee Chairman Fred Upton (R-Mich.) and Rep. Greg Walden (R-Ore.), chairman of the Commerce Subcommittee on Communications, said the broader reforms should instead be considered as the committee continues with its years-long effort to overhaul the Communications Act, which governs the telecommunications industries and regulators and was last updated in 1996.
The House is considering Tuesday's bill under a suspension of the rules, meaning it will require two-thirds majority for approval. Lawmakers' quick maneuvering with the bill indicated that they had little doubt that would happen. Passage would leave all eyes on Senate Commerce Chairman Jay RockefellerJohn (Jay) Davison RockefellerBottom Line World Health Day: It's time to fight preventable disease Lobbying World MORE (D-W.Va.), who has yet to introduce legislation despite having expressed a desire to reform existing retransmission rules with the STELA bill. Earlier this month, Rockefeller announced that he and other members of the panel would work on legislation through the August recess and bring out a bill in September. The Senate Judiciary Committee has already moved forward with a clean bill.
Rockefeller said the House vote doesn't change the impetus for the Commerce Committee to get its bill done. "You don't have to put pressure on our committee to get something out," he said off the Senate floor Monday. "We want to."
Rockefeller also said he hopes the committee can stick with the September timeline. "We want to have everything on the table. We like competition," he said, echoing praise he issued last week for online video companies that add competition to the video marketplace. "Streaming video and all that stuff is good."
IBM to name chief accessibility officer: Frances West, a 25-year veteran at IBM, is set to take over as the new chief accessibility officer, the company will announce on Tuesday. In her new role, West will focus on making sure that the company's technology is accessible by people with disabilities, such as text-to-speech tools for users who are blind. "We see a great opportunity to design for accessibility fundamentally from the start and to enhance the abilities of individuals through technology – and we intend to lead," CEO Ginni Rometty said in a statement.
"Incorporating accessibility and choice into everything we do – and engaging our partners in business, government and academia to advance accessible design, standards and policy – will bridge the silos that have isolated too many for too long," West wrote in a blog post on Monday evening. "As we work to extend human capabilities through smarter design and greater accessibility, we also will strengthen our brand and forge new relationships and improve the quality of life."
West, who has served on the boards of directors for organizations like the American Association of People with Disabilities and the Assistive Technology Industry Association, was formerly the head of the company's Human Ability and Accessibility Center.
Lobbying totals trickle in: Many major corporations were still filing their lobbying totals for the second quarter of the year on Monday evening, but some interesting numbers are already in. The Consumer Electronics Association looked to be an early gainer, with a $550,000 increase over the last three months. The trade association spent $1.12 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $570,000 earlier in the year. AT&T also bumped up its totals amid a quest for regulators to approve its planned merger with DirecTV, from $3.67 million during the first three months of the year to $3.82 million.
Not everyone in the tech world is dropping more cash on K Street. Oracle dropped off its lobbying spending a tad, from $1.51 million to $1.46 million. The National Association of Broadcasters dropped from $5.28 million earlier in the year to to $4.65 million for the second quarter. The National Cable and Telecommunications Association, too, dipped from $4.14 million to $4.01 million.
Trade groups like the Information Technology Industry Council and CTIA-The Wireless Association both stayed even, at $270,000 and $2.16 million, respectively.
WhiteHouse.gov, YouPorn.com use invisible trackers: Privacy and data journalist Julia Angwin rang the alarm bells about browser "fingerprinting," a technologically advanced online tracking method that is "unusually hard to block" and is used by major websites, including WhiteHouse.gov and YouPorn.com.
"Like other tracking tools, canvas fingerprints are used to build profiles of users based on the websites they visit — profiles that shape which ads, news articles or other types of content are displayed to them," Angwin wrote in a Mashable article on Monday. But unlike the common cookie-based tracking tools, fingerprinting trackers "can't be prevented by using standard web browser privacy settings or using anti-tracking tools such as AdBlock Plus."
New privacy, tech center at Georgetown Law: Georgetown University Law Center announced Monday a new program dedicated to privacy and technology. The new Center on Privacy and Technology will train law students and give professors the opportunity to weigh in on federal and state debates, including about government surveillance, connected devices, biometric data collection and the growing use and sophistication of data collection and analytics. The center will be led by Alvaro Bedoya, chief counsel to the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Privacy.
Fred Upton and the Internet Association check out beers, food truck: House Energy and Commerce Chairman Fred Upton (R-Mich.) joined the Internet Association for a trek though Kalamazoo, Mich., on Monday. The lawmaker stopped off at a local organic food truck, a jewelry maker, studio and Bell's Brewery on their crawl, which was catalogued on Twitter.

Sunday of the Blind Man4. June 2016 - 16:33
Who shall declare Thy might, O Christ? And who shall number the multitude of Thy wonders? For as Thou wast doubly seen in Thy goodness on earth, so didst Thou doubly grant healing to the sick; for not only didst Thou heal the bodily eyes of the man born blind from the womb, but the eyes of his soul also. Wherefore, he confessed that Thou art a hidden God, granting all the Great Mercy.
--Doxasticon of the Feast, Tone 8
On this day, the sixth Sunday of Pascha, we celebrate the miracle wrought by our Lord and God and Savior Jesus Christ upon the man who was blind from his birth.
Saint Basil the Bishop of Ostrog11. May 2016 - 15:39
Saint Basil, Bishop of Zakholmsk, was born of pious parents in the sixteenth century in the Popov district of Herzegovina. At the age of maturity he left his parental home and settled in the Trebinsk monastery in honor of the Dormition of the Most Holy Theotokos, and became a monk.
For his virtuous life the saint was elevated to be Bishop of Zakholm and Skenderia. He occupied the bishop's cathedra in the second half of the sixteenth century, a successor to Bishop Paul and predecessor of Bishop Nicodemus. St Basil was a good pastor of the flock of Christ, and the Lord strengthened his discourse with various miracles. For the sanctifying of soul with the wisdom of holy ascetic fathers, the saint journeyed to Athos. St Basil died peacefully and was buried in the city of Ostrog in Chernogoria on the border with Herzegovina.
Lazarus Saturday22. April 2016 - 21:44
The Beginning of the Cross: Saturday of Lazarus
"Having fulfilled Forty Days... we ask to see the Holy Week of Thy Passion." With these words sung at Vespers of Friday, Lent comes to its end and we enter into the annual commemoration of Christ's suffering, death and Resurrection. It begins on the Saturday of Lazarus. The double feast of Lazarus' resurrection and the Entrance of the Lord to Jerusalem (Palm Sunday) is described in liturgical texts as the "beginning of the Cross" and is to be understood therefore, within the context of the Holy Week. The common Troparion of these days explicitly affirms that by raising Lazarus from the dead, Christ confirmed the truth of general resurrection. It is highly significant that we are led into the darkness of the Cross by one of the twelve major feasts of the Church. Light and joy shine not only at the end of Holy Week but also at its beginning; they illumine darkness itself, reveal its ultimate meaning.
The Sunday of St Gregory Palamas27. March 2016 - 13:23
In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
Why do we fast? Why do we make sacrifices? Why do we stand at long services? Why do we pray? To those of us who are beginning to doubt and waver after only two weeks of the Fast, the Church brings us an answer today. This answer is in the person of St Gregory Palamas, the fourteenth-century Archbishop of Salonica in Greece to whom this Sunday is dedicated.
Sunday of Orthodoxy19. March 2016 - 21:51
Rejoicing today in the triumph of Orthodoxy on this first Sunday of Lent, we joyfully commemorate three events: one event belonging to the past; one event to the present; and one event which still belongs to the future.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
Rejoicing today in the triumph of Orthodoxy on this first Sunday of Lent, we joyfully commemorate three events: one event belonging to the past; one event to the present; and one event which still belongs to the future.
Saint Haralambos the Holy Martyr of Magnesia23. February 2016 - 12:35
This great saint, Haralambos, was a bishop in Magnesia who suffered for Christ in his 113th year. When a terrible persecution began during the reign of Emperor Septimius Severus, the elderly Haralambos did not hide from the persecutors. Instead, he freely and openly preached the Christian Faith. He endured all tortures as though he were in someone else's body. When they skinned him alive, the forgiving elder said to the emperor's soldiers: "Thank you, my brethren, for in scraping my old body you renew my spirit for a new eternal life." He worked many miracles and converted many to the Faith. Even the emperor's daughter, Galina, abandoned the idolatry of her father and became a Christian. Condemned to death and brought to the place of execution, St. Haralambos raised his hands to heaven and prayed to God for all people, that God would grant them bodily health and spiritual salvation and that He would multiply their fruit of the earth: "O Lord, Thou knowest that men are flesh and blood; forgive them their sins and pour out Thy grace on all!" After praying, this holy elder gave up his soul to God before the executioner lowered the sword on his neck. He suffered in the year 202. The emperor's daughter, Galina, removed his body and honourably buried it.
Sunday of the Publican and the Pharisee20. February 2016 - 23:31
The Sunday after the Sunday of Zacchaeus is devoted to the Publican and the Pharisee. At Vespers the night before, the TRIODION (the liturgical book used in the services of Great Lent) begins.
Two men went to the Temple to pray. One was a Pharisee who scrupulously observed the requirements of religion: he prayed, fasted, and contributed money to the Temple. These are very good things, and should be imitated by anyone who loves God. We who may not fulfill these requirements as well as the Pharisee did should not feel entitled to criticize him for being faithful. His sin was in looking down on the Publican and feeling justified because of his external religious observances.

Okay, I know a lot of people will be quick to argue this, but before you get a chance I want to say I agree with you. Things change. But there's one thing I saw in a YouTube comment, of all places, that actually made a load of sense on this subject.
Really, roads belong to cyclists and we're the ones borrowing them. While there are freeways and other fast/large roads that do not allow bicycles, the rest belong to them. See, as drivers, we do not have a right to the road. Just a privilege. We need a license and our cars need to be registered. Bicyclists need to be a certain age in some places, but other than that there are no restrictions as to whether or not they can ride. They have a right to the road.
And I think that they should. I also think that bike lanes should be more commonplace, as it seems that this is the reason many drivers think bikes belong on the sidewalk (which is almost always illegal, actually) and will get extremely aggressive toward road-going cyclists. The concept of a bike lane makes those who are ignorant to the law feel that bikes are only allowed on the road if there is a bike lane. In reality, they just reduce congestion in bicycle-heavy areas by giving cars the room to pass without moving over. That's why there should be more of them.
So yeah. Some cyclists are assholes who ride in the middle of the lane and don't let cars pass, but some drivers are also assholes by refusing to move over or slow down as they fly by just inches from brutally obliterating what they forget is a human being. Just keep in mind that bicycles are more entitled to the road than you are, and hopefully soon society will finally begin to more properly accommodate cars by adding bike lanes. It sounds so backwards to put it that way, but it really is true.

Ramla is Israel's first (and only) Arab Moslem town. It is home to two ancient and important mosques - the Great Mosque, originally built as a Christian basilica by the Crusaders, and the Lesser Mosque, al Khudaifa, in the heart of Ramla's Old City, which was erected during the Mamluk period.
Visiting these two mosques and meeting with people of the faith there can be a rare and unique opportunity to gain access to Islam.
It is true that it is difficult for most of us to differentiate between religion and politics, but if you will give yourself only a few hours of openness and listen, you will discover a wondrous, fascinating world, surrounded by magnificent architecture. You will certainly enjoy this experience.

who's ready for thanksgiving?! for the last year i have been fantasizing about the holidays in our new home, and now that they're finally here, i'm bursting with excitement...tempered with a little dose of reality. the hubs is working, (hello, shift wife life. and holiday pay!) which means my plans for a cozy, leisurely holiday will not go off as previously pictured.
that being said, i'm going to sink myself into preparing the most perfectly perfect menu i can conceive, as i have a whole day of solo preparation- and this pie has most definitely made the cut.
(and any pun i ever make is an accident.)
| ingredients |
for the pumpkin pie:
1 pie crust
15 ounces pumpkin puree
1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 large egg yolk
for the meringue topping:
4 large egg whites
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
| method |
preheat the oven to 425°F. roll out the pie crust and place in a deep-dish pie pan, crimping the edges as desired. chill in the refrigerator for approximately 15 minutes.
once chilled, line the crust with parchment paper and fill with pie weights (or in my case, rice. fancy, i know.) blind bake the crust for 15 minutes. remove the pie from oven, discarding the rice and parchment paper. return to the oven for an additional five minutes, or until the edges just start to brown. once complete, turn the oven down to 375 f.
while the pie is baking, we can prepare the filling! heat the pumpkin puree, white sugar, brown sugar, honey, and spices in a saucepan over medium heat. whisk to combine and heat for about five minutes, or until the mixture starts to come together and steam. remove from heat, whisking thoroughly until smooth.
whisk in the milk and cream until smooth. add in the eggs and egg yolk and whisk to combine.
pour the pie filling into the crust (remember your oven should be at 375 f now!) and bake for 45 to 55 minutes. the pie will be done when the center has just set or a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. cool to room temperature on a wire rack.
to make the meringue topping, place the egg whites and sugar in a very clean bowl of a stand mixer and whisk to combine. place a couple inches of water in a saucepan and heat over medium heat. place the mixing bowl on top of the saucepan to create a double-boiler. whisking occasionally, heat until egg mixture is warm and sugar has dissolved, four to five minutes.
once warm, return the mixing bowl to the stand mixer. with the whisk attachment, beat the egg mixture on high until the outside of the mixing bowl is cool. add in the vanilla and mix until medium-stiff peaks form.
after the pie has completely cooled, dollop or pipe meringue on top of the pie filling and toast the top of the meringue with a kitchen torch.

Shortly after President Trump warned North Korea that any threats to the United States would be met with "fire and fury," Fox News host and close Trump confidant Sean Hannity announced on Twitter a 12-hour moratorium on "all petty political disagreements."
"In light of dangerous NKorea threat, I'm stopping all petty political disagreements for at least next 12 hours," Hannity tweeted Tuesday afternoon. "Let's see what others do."
Hannity's self-imposed cease-fire lasted less than eight hours.

Just after 11 p.m. ET, Hannity lashed out at Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell over the Kentucky Republican's public criticism of Trump's legislative messaging.
On Monday, McConnell told a group of Rotary Club members in Florence, Ky., that the president has "excessive expectations about how quickly things happen in the democratic process" and lamented the "artificial deadlines" that Trump has imposed on him.
@SenateMajLdr No Senator, YOU are a WEAK, SPINELESS leader who does not keep his word and you need to Retire! https://t.co/X85QQV3WOG

"No Senator," Hannity tweeted, "YOU are a WEAK, SPINELESS leader who does not keep his word and you need to Retire!"
Hannity's colleague, Lou Dobbs, said it's time to "ditch Mitch."

Hannity and Dobbs are both longtime friends of Trump and are often quick to attack the president's critics while mimicking White House talking points.
Dan Scavino Jr., the White House social media director, echoed Hannity in a tweet Wednesday morning.

In his opening monologue on Fox News Tuesday night, Hannity addressed the escalating tensions between the United States and North Korea, blaming past presidents for the present crisis.
"Basically, the Clinton administration and Obama Administration ignored the problem," Hannity said. "They kicked the can down the road."
Earlier Tuesday, Hannity tweeted that while he "prefer(s) peace," it is "ultimately" up to North Korea to "choose" a diplomatic end.
Gladiator "At my signal, unleash HELL". I prefer peace. Whether it's N Korea, Iran or those that seek to destroy u. Ultimately they choose.

During the cold war, American intelligence experts would often try to suss out what was going on in the Soviet Union by looking at photographs of Kremlin public events. If Ivan Somebody was in the picture two places from the Russian leader in March and again in May, but was gone in a similar photograph in July, that meant something. Most likely that Ivan was toast.
In a much more minor way observers of single payer health care reform in Vermont can gain some insight about what is going on inside Governor Peter Shumlin bureaucratic management structure by looking at pictures accompanying stories about the progress of reform.
Over the last three years, the stories that have come out of the Department of Vermont Health Access, one of three centers of reform activity, have been illustrated by photos of Mark Larson, the commissioner of DVHA, or less often Doug Racine, his boss, who is Secretary of the Agency of Human Services. That was true until the last two weeks.
Now, the picture accompanying the stories is of Lawrence Miller, the former Secretary of Commerce, who is taking over as the Czar of health care reform in the Shumlin administration:
July 24, DVAH gets permission to hire 37 new staff members to begin cleaning up the mess over the federally financed health insurance Exchange, a key piece of the reform puzzle. Picture: Lawrence and Stephanie Beck. July 25, Shumlin press conference in Barre. Gets questions about the Exchange mess. Miller on his shoulder. July 28, Miller (pictured) says Vermont will seek extension of federal funds for the Exchange.
And it isn't just the pictures. The whole tone of the discussion around reform has changed dramatically.
On July 10, Doug Racine, the secretary of AHS, gave a presentation to the Green Mountain Care Board, another of the three principal focal points in the reform effort. Al Gobeille, the board chair, had asked the Agency for an update on where the state bureaucracy stood on the various problems facing the Exchange.
Racine provided a lengthy power point recitation of how the whole thing is structured; he said that DVHA is moving forward on its problems and that they would get solved. There was no hint of a crisis, or indeed anything the board really needed to worry about. There was some apparent unease in questions from the five-member board, but no sense of anything really untoward.
Less than two weeks later, the whole atmosphere changed dramatically. Miller went before Mike Fisher's House health care committee and told them flatly that the whole Exchange effort was a mess and that it would take a huge effort to fix it. Considerable shock attended this information. News headlines spoke of the Exchange issues reaching a "crisis."
In fact, there was no new crisis. The whole operation of the Vermont bureaucracy's management of health care had been a total mess virtually since its inception in 2011, when the newly elected Governor Shumlin took office. The Exchange has never worked properly, and the way that DVHA was headed it never would.
This failure was costing Vermont millions of dollars in lost federal subsidies, since many Vermont employers didn't dare to cut their workers loose from company- financed insurance. But that wasn't the worst of it, by a large margin.
The problems at the state agency have threatened to sink the whole health care reform itself.
The reason: Shumlin can't get the single payer system he wants unless he can convince the legislature to raise around $2 billion to replace the private premiums that now finance the system of doctors and hospitals that deliver care to the people of the state.
Doctors and hospitals have provided rhetorical support for the reform effort, but there are huge implicit caveats attached to that support. Doctors and hospitals will have to be confident that whoever manages a whole new management structure for health care.
In the simplest terms: The legislature raises two billion dollars and there it sits, in some form of government bucket. A big question: what happens to it? How does it get distributed to the doctors and hospitals who are delivering the care? Who gets paid how much? How does the whole thing work?
The answer is still being worked out by the Shumlin team, so we won't really see it until next winter, but one thing is already clear to all the major and most of the minor players on the field: The money can't be managed by Doug Racine and Mark Larson. In the starkest terms: If the doctors and hospitals think that they will be working for DVHA, there will be no health care reform in Vermont.
So, is that conclusion valid? Call it the competence issue. What is known about it, what is the evidence?
Few if any of the major players are going to state the case in terms that are this unequivocal. The evidence is nonetheless compelling.
The attitude of the Shumlin high command is evident by simply looking at the skein of events involving Lawrence Miller.
Miller is a highly respected businessman who was building a solid reputation in government in his management of the Agency of Commerce and Community Development. Last January, however, Shumlin asked him to help Mark Larson get a grip on the computer problems at the Exchange.
After spending a couple of months dipping into the DVHA operations in Williston and Winooski while still running his own agency, Miller apparently decided that it would take more than just dipping in because on April 10, Shumlin decreed that Miller would take charge of the whole health care effort for the administration.
Al Gobeille would continue in charge of the Green Mountain Care Board which has both regulatory and system design responsibilities. But all health care reform activities in both the Agency of Human Services and in Shumlin's own office would come under the direct control of Miller.
It is hard overstate the importance of this, not least because it is unique in Vermont government. To recap, one agency secretary is superimposed on the most important function (health care) in another state agency. Has that ever happened before?
Not according to Steve Terry, a long time Vermont journalist and utility executive, who has been watching state government closely since the Hoff administration in the mid-1960s. "I've never seen anything like that," he said when asked.
Add to this Governor Shumlin's often-repeated comment that "there is no way that Vermont is going to run an insurance company." And finally, it is important to look at the posture of the "partners"—a group of reform stakeholders that includes the medical society, the hospital association, Vermont Blue Cross, business community and a few others.
These groups all say they support health care reform, but they are nonetheless very leery about it. For example, last year, the partners contracted a consultant, Avalere Health, to "examine the assumptions" involved in the Shumlin reform effort. The report was superficial and flatly wrong in some of its arguments. Its real importance lay in the simple fact that the partners wanted to send a message that they would oppose a reform plan they thought was damaging to them.
What all of this adds up to is that the Racine-Larson regime at AHS has lost the confidence of very important player in the game—the reform team operating out of the Governor's office, and the key stakeholders in the system.
Equally important, they appear to have lost the confidence of a significant portion of the Vermont legislature. The evidence for that conclusion is that the legislature has insisted on hiring its own consultant to duplicate the effort by the administration to develop technical data necessary to complete the Shumlin plan.
Wasting money like that can only be justified by a conclusion on the legislature's part that they can't trust the information they get from the administration. There is no apparent reason to paint the Green Mountain Care Board with that brush---the GMCB's performance on getting costs under control has been exemplary. Nor is it likely that anybody distrusts Michael Costa, the tax expert that is working on the financing plan for reform.
Moreover, there was no movement at all in the legislature and the Joint Fiscal office, the legislature's data arm, in the direction of hiring its own consultants to replicate the data they would get from the executive branch. They didn't need their own consultant for the original Hsaio plan, nor for the plan drafted by a University of Massachusetts consulting firm. Nor for the passage in 2011 of Act 48, which came from the administration planners.
It was only after press reports that the Shumlin administration had known in the spring of 2013 that the Exchange was a mess, while continuing to issue reassuring reports, did the Legislature revolt. Their first move was to hire Ken Thorpe, a health policy consultant from Georgia, to advise them in the 2014 legislative session. You could argue that the $40,000 they spent on that was wasted also. Nothing appeared to come of it, and in fact no one seemed interested in retaining Thorpe again.
In the light of all this, it seems clear that the Legislature's action in getting a consultant now to get the same information the administration is gathering is driven not by a substantive need for the resulting data but by the distrust that has permeated the legislature.
It's perfectly reasonable to ask why somebody hasn't been fired, given the record of performance on the Exchange. Well, the governor, who bears a piece of the responsibility for misleading the legislature on the Exchange, is not going to fire himself.
And he is also apparently not firing either Racine or Larson, which would have happened long ago in the private sector and to lesser extent in state government. But that is not Shumlin's style.
Hence the need for Lawrence Miller. And on the record of the last three weeks, Miller is not kidding anybody. His assessment of the mess at DVHA couldn't have been more blunt. Under his watch, the state recently severed its ties with CGI, the Canadian information technology company that designed Vermont's exchange. Miller is the man with the broom ready to clean up the exchange mess. And it would be hard for anybody to believe that he isn't determined to fix it.
It is impossible to know at this point whether he can fix it—fixing it meaning not only that the Exchange begins to work, but that the whole reworking of the information systems for AHS takes hold. That effort is in the early stages, but the primary change has been Miller's moves to get more operational skills as opposed to policy expertise into the bureaucratic machinery.
Racine, Larson and Larson's chief aide, Lindsey Tucker, are all policy wonks. Policy they know, operations not so much. Hence the need for Miller, whose whole background consists of operational experience in the private sector. Miller has also recruited operational help in the person of David Martini, who has experience running an insurance company and who has been working for the Department of Financial Regulation. Another addition is Tom Boyd, who has operating experience at Rhode Island Blue Cross.
In sum, there is a new broom and a new message, both of which were necessary if the Shumlin single-payer plan is not to die before it ever got fully launched.

We have come across more details about this mystery machine. The original story follows this update.
Update: We've been poking around and we might be looking at something a lot more special than we first thought. The teaser image shows the number "22" which is the atomic number for Titanium and the number "6" the atomic number for carbon. We're unsure if this means that the front triangle of the Gnarpoon will be Titanium or not, but as reader Chrissyharding has pointed out it, could mean that Sick Bicycles Co are using a Carbotanium weave for the rear.
Carbotanium is a material made up of carbon and titanium weave that is said to be stronger, lighter and more resistant to shearing than standard carbon fibre. The material has been used with success on exotic sports cars such as the lightweight Pagani Zonda. So while we were a little excited before, we're now very excited about this UK made bike.
Original story follows:
Back in May, we learned of a new UK bike brand with a very 'sick' naming strategy, we are of course talking about Sick Bicycle Co, an upcoming manufacturer of steel bikes.
Since its first press releases back in May, we've seen Sick Bicycle Co. launch the slack Gnarcissist 29er hardtail on Kickstarter, and become increasingly more active across social media channels. Anyone following the brand will have seen its various video edits, behind the scenes photos, and updates.
Last night though, the Sick Bicycle Co. Instagram feed was interrupted from its usual updates of Gnarcissist testing with the following teaser:
Obviously, this image had our curiosity glands working overtime, so we downloaded the picture, popped it into Photoshop, adjusted the levels and this is what we discovered.
After our quick tweak, it's easy to see the outline of an all new bike frame, one with rear suspension, and with that trademark Sick Bicycle Co. slack head angle. We could have left our discovery at that, but we delved a little further and found a little more.
It appears that this new full-suspension frame is made from steel, but mated to a carbon rear triangle. The use of carbon for the rear triangle means a more organic look and should save a little weight when compared to other brands and their full steel (see Production Privee Shan N5) or steel front alloy rear (see Cotic Droplink bikes) approach when building the new breed of steel full suspension bikes.
Corroborating our theory on carbon construction is this Instabanger too.
If you squint and sit as close as you can to your screen, you might be able to see two links forming the suspension system that holds the carbon rear to the steel front triangle. The arrangement is similar to the linkage on the Ibis Mojo and Robot R160/R130, although at this point we don't know if Sick Bicycle Co. has licensed the DW link design yet or created their own system which looks similar.
The only other details we can make out from the teaser are that the reach appears to be quite long, the downtube has an attractive curve to it and the head tube has an "hourglass" profile.
The final piece of information from the image is the numbers "6 // 22" which apparently DON'T relate to the DW6 suspension system or the launch date for the bike. Update: But are the atomic numbers for carbon and titanium hinting at the possible use of Carbotanium for the rear end.
As for the name, well this could be the Gnarpoon, an 180mm travel, 29er, full suspension bike that was hinted at around the same time as the Gnarcissist reveal, however, the shock mount in this teaser doesn't appear to match the one was shown off in earlier photos. Perhaps things have changed a little during development? or perhaps this is a different bike completely?
Whatever it might be we're sure we are going to see more of this project in the coming weeks and we'll update the story as we get more details. If you haven anything to add to the story please feel free to do so in the comments section below.

Ever since I can remember, Four Corners Welding & Gas Supply (Gallup, NM) has been a huge part of my life. I couldn't have been more than 4 years old when my mom started bringing me by the office. By age 14, I took my first job with the company in the administrative department. I did mainly filing along with handling some accounts receivable and accounts payable duties. Now I'm the vice president of the company, my father is president and chairman, my mother is CFO, my husband is a senior manager and I'm the one bringing my own daughter to the office every day. It's hard to imagine being more personally invested in the business.
Gaining Perspective
I've always known that working for the company was what I wanted to do with my life, but as I finished high school, I realized that to bring fresh perspective to the business I would need to step away for a while. I enrolled at Baylor University, where I earned a degree in business management. I then went to San Diego and completed an internship with WestAir Gases & Equipment. They put me in a program where I rotated through several different positions over the course of a year. This experience gave me the confidence to return home, where my father and I began a transition plan that will end with me taking over the company.
As vice president, I have a great deal of responsibility. I have a team of senior managers that reports directly to me, and together we run the day-to-day operations of the business. Depending on the day, that might mean making decisions about anything from personnel to sales to contracts to building maintenance. I am also deeply involved in big-picture issues like forecasting and strategic planning.
A Great Responsibility
I keep very busy and enjoy every minute of it. It's still fun to go to work every day, but it's also a challenge because it's not just my family that depends on the decisions that I make—It's also the families of the 45 other people who work for us. It is a sobering responsibility and one that I take very seriously. That's why every decision I make is not just about what is best for my family; it's about what is best for the company. Fortunately, my parents are always there to help out with the tough decisions. It's important that the knowledge of their generation is not lost. The lessons they learned are going to help the next generation of leaders continue to grow their companies and the gases and welding industry as a whole.

Amber Chisamore is vice president for Gallup, NM-based Four Corners Welding & Gas Supply. She represents the second generation of her family to work at the company which can be found on the Web at www.fourcournerswelding.com.

Alleged 'swatter' prankster arrested in US
An American man alleged to have been involved in several "swatting" incidents has been arrested in the US.
"Swatting" involves pranksters phoning police with fake information about crimes that require the presence of armed Swat teams.
Brandon Wilson was arrested for his suspected involvement in an incident in July that led to armed officers laying siege to a house in Illinois.
If found guilty, Mr Wilson could face up to five years in jail.
The arrest took place on the same day that a popular online gamer Joshua Peters was swatted while fans watched him playing via his Twitch TV stream.
Swatting has become a significant problem in the US with many pranksters and trolls using it as a tactic against people they dislike or as a means of revenge. Cybercriminals have also used it against security researchers who have exposed their identities and how they work.
The incident which led to Mr Wilson being arrested involved police responding to a fake call about a murder at a home in an Illinois town called Naperville.
Mr Wilson, who lives in Las Vegas, is also suspected of involvement in several other swatting incidents according to a local US report about his arrest. Mr Wilson, who uses the gaming handle "famed god", has been charged with computer tampering, intimidation, fraud and ID theft.
Illinois state attorney James Glasgow said swatting was a "dangerous prank" and added that he was drafting laws that would make it a crime in the state. The law would require convicted swatters to pay the costs of calling out emergency response teams.

London's Best Healthy Food Joints
Here at Zomato we love to indulge ourselves as much as the next person. Okay. Maybe a tiny bit more more… but we can't help it, those burgers are just too damn tempting.
However, after stuffing our faces for a solid month over the festive season, we think January just might be the perfect time to start paying attention to a few of London's healthier food joints. Here's a few of our favourite places you'll want on your list.
Your first stop for healthy dining is The Grain Store at Kings Cross where a veg-focused menu offers a little bit of something for everyone: meat lovers, vegans and veggies unite at the table! A menu that changes for all seasons ensures delicious, healthy food all year round.
For something a little more spicy, head to Sagar in Covent Garden, Hammersmith or Fitzrovia, which serves up authentic south Indian cuisine that's as kind to your wallet as it is to your waistband. If Indian dining doesn't sound like a healthy option to you,think again my friend. Their entire vegetarian menu, along with a separate menu for vegans and garlic / onion free food (IBS sufferers, I see you) will keep you covered.
Just down the road from Sagar's Covent Garden branch is The Wildfood Café, a vegan and raw food paradise dedicated to making delicious food from organic ingredients, proving that vegan food need not be boring. Go here and order the chocolate cake if you're craving a sweet treat without the guilt … not that we here at Zomato ever experience that …
Next up is Vietnamese cuisine, which can offer some fantastic options if you're after something light and nutritious. Head to Miss Chu over in Whitechapel for sashimi tuna, avocado and seaweed salad rice paper rolls while you sip on bottomless tea. Oh. But good luck not ordering the tempting deep fried options. It'll be a test of willpower.
For gym bunnies, Gyms Kitchen in Leyton and Gants Hill is the perfect lunch spot as it tells you the calories, fat, carb and protein content in every meal = no more fooling yourself. Take the latest copy of Men or Women's Health to read and order an egg white omelet for the ultimate protein power meal.
Dining is all very well, but temping alcoholic beverages can ruin even the most stringent of detoxes. The Happenstance can be found just behind St Paul's Cathedral and provides a range of cocktails for less than 100 calories each. Perfect. Just don't have 10 in one evening.
However if you're dead set on sticking to Dry January, you're going to need to get down to Chelsea's Juice Baby for a detox green smoothie. Give chia seeds a try, let leafy greens scream health at you or if you're feeling hardcore, neck a wheatgrass shot.
These should pretty much cover your healthy dining needs for January. For more options and delicious temptations that will make you break the January diet check us out, over at Zomato.

Mathematical structures, both deterministic and random, may be divided into two classes: discrete and continuous. In a wide sense, discrete mathematics studies structures with parameters indexed by the elements of discrete sets consisting of "isolated members". Random discrete structures constitute a broad class of probabilistic objects with the characteristics being random variables indexed by space or time parameters varying discretely. The research of our group aims at a special type of discrete random objects having a so-called "regeneration" property. Generally speaking, regeneration means the invariance of an exchangeable or partially exchangeable random structure, or the family of such structures, under the deletion of a part chosen uniformly at random. This property provides new insights into the relationship between discrete structures and their continuous-time counterparts and proposes new methods of studying their evolution with the help of well-developed techniques fr om the theory of stochastic processes. In particular, our expertise includes:
In the near future we intend to continue the aforementioned lines of research as well as start new projects including:
