I've heard it several times- "Oh the venue coordinator will handle everything, I don't need a wedding planner/coordinator." What most brides don't know is that the venue coordinator is just there for the VENUE, not you. (Nothing against venue coordinators- I love them and they've helped me out a lot!) And so, since I'm kind of the person who says things about planning weddings that not many other bloggers will….
- A venue coordinator is looking out for the best interest of the venue. A wedding coordinator looks out for the best interest of YOU, the bride. The venue coordinator deals with everything having to do with the venue- food, setup, etc. A wedding coordinator will deal with aspects of the venue, such as setup, and will make sure everything is to your specifications.
- If your ceremony is at a location other than the venue, your wedding coordinator will be there with you. A venue coordinator will not be at that offsite ceremony. If the ceremony is at the venue, the venue coordinator will be there to help with the coordination of the ceremony.
- A wedding coordinator stays by your side throughout the day and night. They are there to tell you when things will be occurring throughout the night, such as the cake cutting, bouquet toss, toasts, etc. I personally stay until the very end of the wedding, until all of the guests are gone. A venue coordinator stays until the meal is served, and the majority of the time, leaves after. Some may stay until the cake is cut and served. He or she will not be by your side throughout the day or night. Although the venue coordinator will do their best to keep you happy, he or she likely will not be involved if the best man hates your cousin and they are sitting near each other or if your bustle breaks.
- A wedding coordinator contacts your venues before your wedding to make sure everyone is confirmed and knows what time they will be arriving. A venue coordinator may only contact vendors that have to do with setup of the reception, not others, like your photographer or hair/makeup.
- Venues are known to have a high turnover rate among the coordinator/sales positions. The person that you book your wedding with may or may not still be there when it comes time for your wedding a year, year and a half later. Your wedding coordinator is hired by YOU, hand selected by YOU, and won't be going anywhere (unless, God forbid, something horrible happens!).
These are just a few things to inspire some thinking- food for thought. This is in no way meant to be bad towards venue coordinators. As I said before, I LOVE venue coordinators- it's always awesome to work with them! I just want my readers to be aware of the differences between the two.
Thank you to ELD for this article! We hope everyone enjoyed it and now understands the difference.
Your Perfect Day....because you deserve it!

Rock The Best Metal Guitarists and Guitar Teams
221.9k votes 16.3k voters 190k views 258 items
List Rules Only metal guitarist or guitar tandems. Guitarists from other genres shouldn't be included on here
List of the greatest metal guitarists of all time, with photos. Clearly, the list contains a broad selection of guitarists who can still be classified as "metal," though some of the featured guitarists predate the period in which "heavy metal" was enjoying mainstream, popular success. It also includes guitarists such as Brian May and Jimi Hendrix who are not typically referred to as "metal guitarists" as their primary genre – but their guitar sounds were actually highly influential in early heavy metal music.Who are the best metal guitarists of all time? Which musicians shredded the hardest on their guitars? The list also notably contains memorable duos or guitar groups, as line-ups featuring multiple guitarists who compliment one another is such a fixture of the metal genre. Guitarists who are featured as part of a group (such as Megadeth's Dave Mustaine and Marty Friedman or KISS's Ace Frehley and Paul Stanley) should not be listed individually except in rare circumstances where that guitarist had notable success and a specific style while playing solo as well as with a metal group. If you can think of anyone who would be in your personal top 100, then definitely add them to this list.

About Glock 30
Glock Ges.m.b.H., trademarked as Glock is one of the most famous and successful firearm producer, well known all over the world. Engineer Gaston Glock, company's founder who had no experience with firearms manufacture or design, became one of the most successful firearms designer of all times. Glock had extensive experience in advanced synthetic polymers, knowledge of which was very important in the company's design of the first commercially successful line of polymer frame pistols.
Beginnings of this company were very interesting. Gaston Glock overheard a talk of two Austrian colonels, who were talking about the Army's Request for Proposal(RFP) for new short firearm. Glock asked the colonel if they need a new gun and he get a positive answer. He started the project immediately but as it were just a hobby for him. He had never used any gun before. He bought Walther P38, standard Austrian army duty gun, CZ 75, Beretta 92, Sig Sauer P220 9x19mm pistols. He started to stripe them down and when he found out how it is constructed he assembled them again. This method helped him to assimilate their manufacturing procedures and mechanical principles necessary for gun producing. Austrian army appealed to him that he has to show serial production gun for tests, not a prototype.
Glock answered he could design completely new gun in fixed term. So the construction of their new gun would not be so difficult, the gun should be made of less than 40 parts, that were placed in independent subgroups such as trigger mechanism, safety set and so on. It allowed to gunsmiths easy and quick replacing.
The 30 model is a semi-automatic pistol that belongs to the popular Glock pistols line. In general, this model has a very similar appearance to other Glock models and the 30 has become widely used among many shooters, military organizations, law enforcement agencies in many countries around the world. Although it is a striker-fired pistol, it has a single-action trigger. The single-action means that the trigger does not cock the gun, but it only releases the striker when pulled. Striker cocking is performed by retracting slide. The 30 does not have any manual safety devices and the only operating element of this model is its trigger. All internal pistol safeties are deactivated when the single-action trigger is pulled, and on the other hand, automatically activated when it is released. This model's cartridge was developed by John Browning and in 1911 was adopted by the United States Ordnance Department together with the Colt-Browning automatic pistol. It has also become the official military handgun of several governments such as Mexico, Argentina and Norway. The 45 Automatic is currently the most powerful military handgun cartridge. This is a powerful and heavy round. This sub-compact pistol is a popular choice of plainclothes police officers or law enforcement personnel. The 30 combines Glock's highly accurate firing characteristics with the power of the .45 ACP in a size previously occupied only by various snub nose revolvers. Like larger Glock pistols, the 30 has an ergonomic, corrosion-resistant, which is stronger than steel polymer frame with a durable steel slide and barrel which is coated with the high tech Tenifer surface treatment. The unique safe-action trigger system has, so called, trigger safety, trigger bar and firing pin lock which automatically deactivate one after another as trigger engages. Barrels of the Glock models feature rounded interior profiles for easier cleaning and also the longer lasting precision. The 30 model has also very useful loaded chamber indicator. Sights of this model are fixed.

Bangladesh, with a population of nearly 160 million and a landmass of 147,570 square kilometers, is among the most densely-populated countries in the world. It remains a low-income country, with a per capita income of US$ 652 in FY09 and 40 percent of its population living in poverty. Despite periods of political turmoil and frequent natural disasters, in the past decade Bangladesh has been marked by sustained growth(with nearly six percent on an average in past one decade), stable macroeconomic management, significant poverty reduction, rapid social transformation and human development. Foreign remittances sent by expatriate Bangladeshis remain one of the most consistent sources of foreign currency in Bangladesh, which earned Bangladesh 7th position among the top remittance-receiving countries in 2010, as reported byMigration and Remittance Fact Book 2011 of the World Bank.
Still, the majority of the Bangladeshis are unbanked, and access to financial services is very limited. Commercial banks have very low penetration in rural areas, where over 75 percent of the population lives. There are less than two ATMs for every 100,000 adults in the country. All of these characteristics make it a good business case for expanding accessibility to financial services through innovations.
Mobile networks have expanded quite rapidly in Bangladesh over the past decade. Currently, there are six mobile network operators (MNOs) in Bangladesh covering more than 90 percent of the geographic territory and 99 percent (coverage wise) of the population in Bangladesh. Consumer demand in Bangladesh makes the mobile market one of the fastest growing in the world. For instance, over the past 15 months, Bangladesh recorded nearly 1.4 million subscribers per month. The total number of mobile phone active subscribers reached about 73 million at the end of March 2011, with about a 45 percent penetration rate in the whole country. The Government and the Central Bank now recognize that the mobile banking is as a unique opportunity for the banks to increase their presence in rural and remote areas of the country and serve a huge unbanked population.
[kml_flashembed movie="http://www.youtube.com/v/3GlLnPfJRZU" width="425" height="344" allowfullscreen="true" fvars="fs=1" /]
Banglalink, the fastest growing telecom operator in recent years, is the pioneer in testing out mobile mone initiatives in Bangladesh. The products it has recently launched along with other partners (such as banks and post offices) are as follows: (i) M-remittance (International and Local): which allows people to receive international remittance in the m-wallet account; enables local fund transfer P2P from one m-wallet to another m-wallet; facilitates cash deposit from "cash points" and other sources; and provides for cash withdrawal from "cash points"; (ii) M-payment (Utility): allows payment of utility bills using m-wallet; and (iii) M-collection: facilitates the purchase of train tickets.
M-remittance services are meant to address widespread issues such as inability to send money frequently, delays experienced while sending money, and issues related to insecure distribution and inconsistent delivery methods. It is also helping small entrepreneurs (agents) use part of the remittances which the receivers often do not withdraw all at once. The use of m-remittance services offered by Banglalink is picking up gradually. Around 1000 transactions are being reported across the country at the Banglalink mobile money agents/points. Users like the service for its fast and cost effective disbursement, as Banglalink found in its own market study.
Among many recent initiatives is the creation of a new organization called bKash — a scalable mobile money platform that will allow poor Bangladeshis to store, transfer and receive money safely via mobile phones. bKash is a joint venture of BRAC Bank Limited and Money in Motion LLC, USA, created out of a generous $10m grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to ShoreBank International, an international consulting firm. The grant forms part of the Foundation's $500m pledge over the next five years to expand savings and build a "new financial infrastructure" to bring savings services to the poor.
With mobile density of 45 percent and mobile retail density averaging 0.5 in each village, like many other countries such as Kenya, South Africa and the Philippines, Bangladesh also has enormous opportunity for financial inclusion through creating a solid "mobile money ecosystem". This arguably will contribute to greater efforts at poverty reduction and economic development in Bangladesh.

Quick Shopping Cart PCI Compliance FAQ
Use the information below to learn more about PCI compliance.
What is PCI compliance?
PCI compliance is conformity to security standards set by the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Security Standards Council to protect cardholder data. The PCI council is responsible for managing the security standards, while compliance with it is enforced by major payment card brands (such as Visa®).
Who needs to be PCI compliant?
PCI standards apply to all organizations that store, process, or transmit cardholder data. If you're a merchant that accepts payment cards, you're required to be compliant with the PCI Data Security Standard (DSS). You can find out your exact compliance requirements from your payment card brand or acquirer.
How do I become PCI compliant?
Merchants need to validate their processes and controls for PCI compliance based on requirements from their payment card brand or acquirer.
For example, Visa defines levels of compliance validation based on the volume of transactions, potential risk, and exposure introduced into the payment system by merchants and service providers.
For Level 2 - Level 4 merchants, validation generally occurs through the completion of a PCI DSS Self-Assessment Questionnaire (SAQ) and quarterly Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) scans. Level 1 merchants must have a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) who completes an annual report on compliance. A list of approved QSA companies is available on the PCI Security Standards Council website. For more information on Visa's PCI compliance validation process, see Visa's Merchant website.
Is Quick Shopping Cart PCI compliant?
Yes. Quick Shopping Cart® is fully PCI compliant. An annual audit is performed by a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) to confirm that all PCI requirements are met for the Quick Shopping Cart environment. Assessment activities focus on our public-facing Web servers, back-end processing systems, cardholder storage database, administrative bastion hosts, supporting infrastructure, and firewalls.
Note: If you use Quick Shopping Cart, you still need to complete a PCI DSS Self-Assessment Questionnaire and report PCI compliance based on your merchant level if your payment card brand requests it.
Do I need to have my Quick Shopping Cart site scanned because my merchant processor says I do?
No. Customers using Quick Shopping Cart do not need to contract third party Approved Scanning Vendor (ASV) scans against their Quick Shopping Cart website. To satisfy scanning requirements, acquirers and payment card brands can refer to our status as a PCI DSS validated service provider.
We complete the following activities to achieve compliance as a Level 1 PCI Service Provider:
- The Quick Shopping Cart environment is scanned monthly by an ASV.
- An annual audit is performed by a Qualified Security Assessor (QSA) to confirm that all PCI requirements are met for the Quick Shopping Cart environment, including performance of scans by an ASV.
- The QSA submits the report on compliance for the Quick Shopping Cart service to Visa. Visa reviews the report and confirms our status as a PCI DSS validated service provider.
Is Shared, Dedicated, or Virtual Private Server PCI compliant?
No. Neither Shared, Dedicated, or Virtual Private Server is PCI compliant.
What about password requirements?
GoDaddy has you covered. All PCI-DSS password requirements are configured for you by GoDaddy. Make sure to look out for emails notifying you when your password expires and needs to be changed. Additionally, if you ever feel your account may have been compromised, GoDaddy recommends changing your password immediately.

Lance Lynn picked Twins for chance to win 'no matter what'
By MAUREEN MULLEN
FORT MYERS, Fla. (AP) The unusually slow free-agent market took Lance Lynn's wait to find a team through the winter and well into spring training.
The offer he settled on from the Minnesota Twins also came with the expectation of pennant race and perhaps postseason pitching.
"I wanted to go somewhere where they had a chance to win no matter what," Lynn said on Tuesday at his introductory news conference. "It seemed like the perfect fit, and I look forward to doing what I have to do, which is take the ball when it is my turn."
Lynn agreed to a $12 million, one-year contract that includes bonuses of $1 million each for 170 and 180 innings. He was given a turn right away and struck out five batters in three hitless innings of an exhibition against Baltimore. He walked one.
"Other than that, everything went about as smooth as it possibly could," Lynn said. "Get ready for the next and kind of keep the buildup for opening day."
Twins manager Paul Molitor said Lynn will make another start on Sunday.
"We're trying to look at the best way we can to get him ready to help us out of the gate at some point," Molitor said. "At the same time, trying to caution him that first time on a new team, even veteran people sometimes try to overstate their case early. So we'll be tracking him."
The Twins are anticipating more performances like Tuesday's when the wins and losses actually count and he's stretched out over a full game.
"When you talk about a competitor and the makeup every time he takes the mound, this is somebody who's going to help lead our pitching staff and all our young players, given his experience and who he is as a player," chief baseball officer Derek Falvey said.
Lynn, who won a World Series with the St. Louis Cardinals as a rookie in 2011, has pitched 52 postseason innings. He joked that he picked the Twins because he grew up in Indiana and likes the cold, but they're serious about playing into October when the temperatures drop.
Lynn has joined fellow newcomer Jake Odorizzi in the rotation, and Fernando Rodney, Addison Reed and Zach Duke were added to the bullpen. Logan Morrison was, like Lynn, picked up at a bargain price to be the designated hitter and play some first base.
"I'm here for one year. We'll see how it goes. Maybe I can be here for longer," Lynn said.
Asked whether the slow market left him with a chip on his shoulder, Lynn said, "The chip on my shoulder's been there since I was born. I'm pretty sure that's the way my dad says it. That's something I use to compete, and it helps drive me."
To stay sharp, Lynn has been throwing bullpen sessions and simulated games while working out in Florida.
"Trying to give it as much intensity as possible to be ready to when I step in, I could go right into games and try to be ready as fast as possible for the season," Lynn said before his Twins debut.
Lynn, still progressing in his recovery from Tommy John surgery that caused him to miss the 2016 season, tied a career high and tied for the NL lead with 33 starts last year. The 39th overall pick by the Cardinals in the 2008 amateur draft went 11-8 with a 3.43 ERA in 2017, and he was 72-47 with a 3.38 ERA in six seasons with the Cardinals.
With Odorizzi, Jose Berrios, Ervin Santana and Kyle Gibson in place, there's not much competition left in camp for starting spots. Molitor has said he'll use a four-man rotation as much as possible in April while Santana recovers from finger surgery. Phil Hughes and Tyler Duffey could be relegated to long relief.
"There is a certain grittiness to the way Lance goes about his job, and hopefully it will permeate its way through our clubhouse to some degree," Molitor said.
The Twins, not coincidentally, sent down prospects Stephen Gonsalves, Adalberto Mejia and Aaron Slegers to Triple-A Rochester and Fernando Romero to Double-A Chattanooga before the game. Mejia made 21 starts for the Twins last year.
"It's just another high-end piece for us," Molitor said. "As a manager, when you have these types of moves, it is really exciting."

Christmas may be the most wonderful time of the year, but I find New Years to be the most inspiring time of the year! The New Year is like spring cleaning during dead winter- out with the old and in with the new!
If you are an equestrian or have an equine business, the New Year is the perfect time to create goals and resolutions in preparation for the spring and summer riding seasons, such as revamping lesson programs (taking lessons or giving them) and updating your equine facilities- tack room organization, repairing paddocks, or refurbishing arenas.
And these winter months are the perfect time to review your liability policies: updating your liability releases to current law, reassessing your insurance plans, and reviewing or creating your other legal contracts.
Resolve to enact best practices and policies for your equine life to ensure better protection, save money, and have greater peace of mind.
Of course many of my New Year's Resolutions revolve around horses, such as taking more lessons, showing more, and updating some of my riding gear. I will also be rolling out more streamlined and specialized equine legal services to clients and their equine businesses in the year ahead.
Are your 2013 Resolutions about horses and riding?!
Happy New Year!

HILLSBORO, Ore., Sept. 7, 2012 – SolarWorld, the largest U.S. solar manufacturer for more than 35 years, announced today that it has begun construction of its 25-megawatt (DC) Desert Star Solar Projects in California's Mojave Desert. The engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) division of SolarWorld, which owns the land and projects near Twentynine Palms, Calif., is overseeing all phases of the projects, including design, engineering, procurement, permitting and construction. Once completed later this year, Desert Star will rank among California's largest operating crystalline-silicon solar installations.
"Desert Star is the latest in a line of utility-scale projects dating to the early 1980s that demonstrates the deep experience and wide-ranging capabilities of SolarWorld's EPC division," said Kevin Kilkelly, president of SolarWorld Americas, the company's commercial arm, based in Camarillo, Calif. "The projects spotlight the best of American solar ingenuity, combining our U.S.-manufactured solar panels and single-axis tracker with some of the country's brightest solar engineering and construction talent."
Situated on two land parcels totaling 164 acres between the communities of Twentynine Palms and Joshua Tree, Desert Star will feed an estimated 58,312 megawatt-hours of renewable energy annually into the Southern California Edison electrical grid, enough to power 9,000 typical American homes each year. The projects are expected to eliminate about 31,000 tons of carbon emissions a year, the equivalent of taking about 61,000 vehicles off the road for their life spans.
The projects will feature 100,092 SolarWorld Sunmodule™ solar panels manufactured in the company's Hillsboro, Ore., factory and mounted on SolarWorld's American-made Suntrac® single-axis trackers. Designed to streamline installation costs and improve mechanical reliability for utility-scale solar installations, the Suntrac tracker can boost a system's electricity production by up to 21 percent, compared with fixed ground-mount racking.
SolarWorld began acquiring and designing the Desert Star Solar Projects this past spring. Grading and site preparation began in June. Beginning in September, SolarWorld plans to hire about 150 local trade and non-trade workers for construction and permanent operations and maintenance positions. The company estimates the installation will infuse $5.2 million into the local economy during construction.
SolarWorld manufactures and sells solar power solutions and in doing so contributes to a cleaner energy supply worldwide. As the largest solar producer in the United States and Europe, SolarWorld employs about 3,200 people and carries out production in Hillsboro, Ore., and Freiberg and Arnstadt, Germany. From the raw material silicon to solar wafers, cells and panels, SolarWorld manages all stages of production ‒ including its own research and development. The company maintains high social standards at all locations across the globe and is committed to resource- and energy-efficient production. Headquartered in Bonn, Germany, SolarWorld was founded in 1998 and has been publicly traded on the stock market since 1999. For more information, visit www.solarworld-usa.com.

Frankly i am just not in the mood when summer is around to blog..frankly i don't know if i really care to blog for a while i think because i really just had no NEED to. I dunno...sometimes i really want to just throw away all online social life and just LIVE.
This summer was pretty epic. I think the best summer ever.
Part actual warm temperatures and sun in Vancouver and just plain putting the effort..y'know?
Oh! Yeah so why this post?
I finished my Crochet Baby Blanket which i started way back in the winter!
Made it in time as a present for Aeon's First Birthday too!
She ate all the birthday cake!!
Loved every bit of it too..
My latest obsession this summer is when Jayson finally put up a clothing line in our backyard that i can pull up and down with a little pulley. I never know how satisfied i felt after pinning them all up and seeing the line of clothes flapping in the sun. I have never ever had a clothes line which in East Van..is crazy since everyone has one here. Now i feel accomplished.
This was just a lunch i made ..but the colours were very autumn..
See those Chicken Wings? Those are YUM!
A Large Package of Chicken Wings..This Sauce is pretty flexible..I have used it for the large pack to just a couple pounds of wings. Whatever you can get your hands on..
Grapeseed Oil
1 Cup Water
3 Cloves Garlic
3 Slices of Ginger
1/4 Cup Balsamic Vinegar or Apple Cider Vinegar for a sweeter lighter style.
1/4 Cup Soy Sauce
1/4 Cup Chicken marinade Sauce ( or just double the Soy Sauce)
1/4 Chili Chicken Sauce
Sesame Seeds
2 TBSP Chives
Get a soup pot for this on high.
Put some oil in and brown the chicken. 5 minutes should do it, depends on how much chicken i got in there though.

Nim Nim!
It's my way to make some for freezing for easy lunches with the kids too.
Good with some mixed rice and yams!

I tend to cook a good deal with lentils and beans because, to a vegan, they are an invaluable source of protein and there's absolutely nothing in them that's not really, really good for you.
What's more, they come in so many different shapes and sizes and flavors, it is impossible to get bored with them.
Now pink lentils (masoor dal) are a staple in any Indian pantry, and they definitely occupy pride of place in mine. Besides all the health benefits, these tiny pink nuggets are extremely quick-cooking, even compared to other lentils like tuvar dal. Twenty minutes in a pot of boiling water, and you're done, no soaking required.
My Subtly Spiced Pink Lentils with Veggies are actually a version of a dish I used to cook in my omnivore days. I swear the vegan version is tastier! I added to the lentils half of a leftover cauliflower and some crimini mushrooms as well as a bunch of watercress leaves, and the flavor from all this fresh goodness was unbeatable, not to mention the improved nutritional profile of the dish. If you don't have these particular veggies, though, potatoes, beans, or squash, or a combination of these, would make great substitutes.
I love watercress because it is easy for me to come by at my local grocery store and it reminds me just a bit of a leafy favorite, Fenugreek. It also takes far less time than Fenugreek to cook, requiring just a couple of minutes in the pot at the very end.
Here's the recipe, now. Hope you enjoy it!
Masoor Dal
- 3/4 cup pink lentils (masoor dal), cooked with about 3 cups of water and a pinch of salt until tender
- 5 cardamom pods , bruised
- 1 medium red onion , thinly sliced
- 6 cloves of garlic , thinly sliced
- 1 tsp ginger , grated
- 1 tsp red chili powder
- 1/2 tsp turmeric
- 3 cups cauliflower florets
- 2 cups mushrooms , quartered (I used crimini but feel free to use button or even portabella)
- 1 cup watercress leaves , chopped
- 1 medium tomato , diced
- 1 tbsp canola oil
- Heat the oil in a saucepan.
- Add the cardamom pods and saute for about a minute
- Add the onions and cook on a medium flame until they brown at the edges.
- Add the garlic and ginger and stir for a minute.
- Add the cauliflower, mushrooms, turmeric, chili powder and salt to taste.
- Stir, then cover and cook for about 10 minutes until vegetables are almost tender.
- Add the lentils and some water, if the mixture is too thick.
- Cook for about 10 minutes until the flavors assimilate.
- Add the watercress and tomato and stir it in.
- Turn off the heat after about two minutes of adding the watercress. Check seasoning and add more salt if needed.
- Serve hot with rice and a spritz of lemon juice.

New Bears coach Marc Trestman just mentioned that defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli had chosen to leave the team.
And Marinelli apparently has a destination in mind.
According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Marinelli is expected to go to Dallas to join the staff of new Cowboys defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin.
Marinelli was the line coach on Kiffin's defensive staff in Tampa Bay, and their background should help in their transition from a 3-4 to a 4-3.

Earlier this month the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released an employment report that was the latest in a series of mediocre economic news. In contrast, the stock market has begun 2013 as if happy days are here again. Which do you want to believe?
Continue Reading Below
Employment growth stumbles
The BLS report showed 157,000 new jobs in January. This was disappointing -- think of 200,000 as an informal benchmark for decent monthly job growth, and with the fiscal cliff out of the way, many had hoped 2013 would get off to a stronger start.
Some of the sting was taken out of this number by strong upward revisions to the job gains for November and December, but viewing these months together with the latest figure only highlights how much things seem to have slowed down in January.
Making sense of the stock market
The S&P 500 Index gained over 5% in January, a roaring start for a lackluster economic environment. Why the disconnect between investor behavior and the big-picture economic data? Here are four possible reasons:
- Revenues are truly improving. It is possible that individual companies are starting to see improved sales, and these haven't yet translated this into hiring plans and wage increases. The optimistic case would be that as companies gain confidence from their sales figures, they'll plow some of their earnings back into expansion plans. That reinvestment could make growth more sustainable.
- Earnings are improving due to spending cuts. While companies are reporting earnings growth, this is not always necessarily due to top-line revenue growth. Spending cuts can help a company make its earnings forecast for a quarter or two, but this does not represent true growth in the business.
- Investors lack alternatives. CD, savings, and money market rates are languishing below 1%. Bond yields are around 2%. For investors who need better returns than that, there is little alternative than to try stocks. Low interest rates increase demand for stocks, but rising demand does not make the companies investors are buying any more valuable. Ultimately, there are limits to what demand alone will do for the stock market, and just because investors need better returns than they get on interest rates doesn't mean the stock market will come through for them.
- Investors are chasing a bull market. What's going on may not be as rational as any as the three explanations above. When investors get a whiff of a bull market, they don't need good reasons -- they just start chasing the market. January's rally was accompanied by the kind of giddy prognostications that often spell trouble in the end.
Those with money in the stock market can enjoy its strong start to 2013, though they had better hope some improved economic fundamentals come along to support the rise in prices. As for depositors in savings accounts, until those improved fundamentals come along, they are no closer to seeing higher rates than they were a year ago.

You may never think about color when you design. You may just think what looks good is what is good. Well think again, because it goes much deeper than that.
This week I want to begin talking about color theory. Before I do, I want to stress that some of this is hard and true "Color Theory" as it has been written for the past 100 years. Some of it is my own personal opinion about color. As an artist we must rely on intuition as much as we rely on theory and practice. It's like a musician; you can teach them all the music theory you want, buy you should never "train-out" their ear. That's what makes them an artist. Let's begin this week by talking about some really simple ideas about color and then move on later to more complex ideas, psychology and practice.
I am going to introduce you to a term in color theory called "analogous color". What this means is that you have a series of colors that are the same hue, but a different shade or saturation value. Look at the image below to see what I mean.
Here is a series of brown colors going from a dark shade to a light one. You should be able to feel a sense of something with this color scheme, but we will talk about that later. What we have here is a series of analogous colors. Now brown isn't the best example, so let's look at blue.
Here we have the same series, but with blues. Now, analogous colors can be any hue. If you were using a greyscale version, they would go from black to white through a series of grays. Technically, black and white are not colors per se, but you get the idea right?
So why do you care? Well, you care because the values you choose in your color scheme whether your scheme is for print, the web, or anything is vitally important. Choosing analogous color schemes is very useful for tying together elements in a layout. You can use it to evoke a sense of structure, simplicity and sophistication. It is also useful as an underlying color scheme, for which elements can compliment it. We will talk about complimentary colors later, but think about how often you see combinations of blue and orange, or blue and yellow on the web. Those colors are complimentary to one-another.
The level of saturation in color is important in making sure your color scheme works. Take a look at the image below.
This is the blue image that has been completely saturated. I used the Hue and Saturation command in Photoshop to do this. See how different it feels from this next image.
The first image is not my idea of sophistication. Typically, web sites and print material that are trying to evoke calm, structure and maturity use soft, desaturated colors. Full saturation is sometimes useful for work that is aimed at younger folks.
Just for clarity here are the brown images to look at.
The saturated one:
The desaturated one:
So that is your first taste of color theory. We will continue to talk about this and how to work with color in Photoshop in the next few columns.

Obama laments 'backward' thinking by Russians
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama said Friday he was reassessing the tense U.S. relationship with Russia because of a growing number of issues on which the two countries differ, and he called on Russian leader Vladimir Putin to "think forward as opposed to backward" and abandon a Cold War mentality.
Obama's comments at a White House news conference came two days after cancelling a planned summit with Putin next month. Meanwhile, Secretary of State John Kerry and Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel ended talks with their Russian counterparts to see where cooperation is possible.
Those officials said they had made some tangible results on the push for a political solution to the crisis in Syria, among other issues.
Obama said Putin's return to the Kremlin last year had brought about "more rhetoric on the Russian side that was anti-American, that played into some of the old stereotypes about the Cold War contest between the United States and Russia."
He told reporters he decided not to attend the summit with Putin because "Russia has not moved" on a range of issues where the U.S. would like to see progress. He said his unhappiness with Russia granting asylum to National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden was not the only reason.
Obama played down suggestions that he and Putin do not get along.
"I don't have a bad personal relationship with Putin. When we have conversations, they're candid. They're blunt. Oftentimes, they're constructive," he said.
But he took a shot at the often dour-looking Russian leader for his demeanor in meetings and appearances before reporters.
"He's got that kind of slouch, looking like the bored kid in the back of the classroom," Obama said. "But the truth is, is that when we're in conversations together, oftentimes it's very productive."
He urged Putin to think in broad terms and not view the United States as an enemy.
Obama also praised trade and arms control successes that the U.S. and Russia were able to seal when he was dealing with former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev.
His comments came shortly after Kerry and Hagel ended talks with their Russian counterparts that were intended to try to repair some of the damage caused by differences over Syria, Russia's domestic crackdown on civil rights and anti-gay legislation, a U.S. missile defense plan for Europe and other issues.
Officials from both countries said they had agreed to renew efforts to bring about a political resolution to the deteriorating situation in Syria at an international conference. On the military side, the officials said Russia had invited the U.S. to observe a joint Russian-Belarussian training exercise next year and to establish a video link between the defense chiefs.
Kerry said U.S.-Russia ties had been complicated by "colliding and conflicting interests." Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov called on both sides to act like "grown-ups."
Lavrov made it clear that Moscow had been prepared to sign agreements on trade and nuclear research and security had the Obama-Putin summit gone ahead.
Associated Press writers Matthew Lee, Matthew Pennington and Tom Raum contributed to this report.

"The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows. The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides."

• Trainer D. Wayne Lukas told the Daily Racing Form on Thursday that he knew Will Take Charge might be in trouble in the Santa Anita Handicap after California Chrome zipped gate to wire to win the San Felipe Stakes four races earlier. "When the 3-year-old race was run and California Chrome took off like that, I thought, 'We need to re-evaluate what we're going to do,'" Lukas said. "You could see the speed was absolutely holding." The Hall of Fame trainer then went on to praise his good friend, Bob Baffert. "(He) did a beautiful job preparing (Game On Dude) for the race," he said. "That was a masterful training job. He had him trained to the minute. It was the fastest Big 'Cap ever, and when you go back through the historical annals and see who's won the Big 'Cap, that is something. Great race, great crowd, great theatre."
• Eight older fillies and mares were entered for Saturday's $350,000 Grade I Santa Margarita Stakes at Santa Anita. The lineup is headed by Fiftyshadesofhay, a troubled fourth in the Grade II La Canada Stakes on Jan. 19 after breaking poorly under Mike Smith. "It definitely cost me the race," Smith said of the 4-year-old daughter of Pulpit, who ran second and third, respectively, to 3-year-old filly champion Beholder last year in a pair of Grade I stakes at Santa Anita — the Las Virgenes and Santa Anita Oaks. Iotapa, a gate-to-wire winner of the Grade II Santa Maria Stakes on Feb. 15, and Spellbound, who beat Fiftyshadesofhay by about a length in the La Canada Stakes, figure to also be in the hunt in the Santa Margarita. Spellbound, 16 lengths back of the leader at one point in the La Canada, was sent postward as a 16-1 longshot.
• Game On Dude sits atop the NTRA's week one thoroughbred top 10 rankings after receiving 18 of 47 first-place votes. Wise Dan, reigning two-time Horse of the Year, received 20 first-place votes but is fourth in the rankings behind second place Will Take Charge and Lea. Mucho Macho Man rounded out the top five. Palace Malice, a game winner of the Gulfstream Park Handicap in his first start of 2014 last Saturday, heads the second five, followed by Sahara Sky, Winning Prize, Beholder and Princess of Sylmar. The latter two have not made their first starts of the year yet. Cairo Prince heads the first 3-year-old poll of the season, followed by California Chrome, Candy Boy, Honor Code and Samraat. Cairo Prince received 25 of 46 first-place votes.

Feb. 25, 2006
On Saturday, February 25 the box score will show that Bisons' pitchers allowed fifteen runs in the 15-10 loss to the Kansas Jayhawks. It will read that in six innings Lipscomb starter Paul Piennette gave up six runs on seven hits. However, there are some pitching performances that can not be measured by a box score. And for five innings against the Jayhawks, Piennette was dominating, giving up just four hits and striking out nine.
The Bisons got on the board first in the second. Ryan Mitchell led off the inning with a double to center. Zac Miller followed with a single through the left side advancing Miller to third. Mitchell would score on an error by the Jayhawks second basemen Matt Berner.
The Bisons continued their scoring in the third. With one out Tadd Brewer singled up the middle. Nathan Sensing followed with a bunt single, advancing Brewer to second. Brewer would move to third on a throwing error by Jayhawks third basemen Erik Morrison. Brewer would score on a Mitchell RBI ground out bringing the score to 2-1. Another run would score on a single by Miller.
The Jayhawks would get on the board in the top of the fourth when Gus Milner scored on a single by Morrison.
Through five innings it appeared that sophomore Paul Piennette might earn his first win of the season. But a five run Kansas sixth ended both the Bisons lead and Piennette's day.
"I thought that Paul did wonderful," head coach Wynn Fletcher said. "He has developed his change up, which he threw in a lot of different counts to keep the hitters off balance. We thought that since Kansas was a good fast ball hitting team that Paul would match up well against them which he did."
Freshman Brandon McClurg came on in relief of Piennette to start the seventh. After allowing the first two batters to reach base, McClurg gave up a three run homer to Milner, to begin what would be the Jayhawks second consecutive five run inning.
Down 11-4, the Bisons began their comeback in the eighth inning. With one out Ryan Price walked, and was lifted for pinch runner Cody Morris. Justin Sanders came in the game to pinch hit for Reed and also received a walk. The next batter, Preston Embrey, drew the third consecutive walk of the inning. Brewer followed with a hard single to right scoring both Morris and Sanders. Sensing kept the scoring going with a three run homer to center field bringing the Bisons to within one. However after pinch hitter Eric Abend fouled out, Miller struck out looking to end the threat.
The Jayhawks tacked on four more in the top of the ninth to bring the score to 15-10 where it would remain.
"Our guys did fairly well," Fletcher said. "We need to collectively pitch better. Offensively we can do a lot of things. We have guys that can run the bases, drive the ball out of the park, and guys that get base hits. We have a lot of different options.
"You hate to go out and lose three in a row. But to lose to a team like Kansas, I am just impressed with the way our guys battled back. The thing we have to concern ourselves with now more than talent is our attitudes. We just have to do our job and keep our character up. We need to keep guys focused and we'll be fine."

Red (Rose) Gold: copper
Green Gold: silver
Gold FactsGold won't tarnish, rust, or corrode, and though it's very strong, it is also the most malleable of all metals.
Gold color is determined by the percentage of alloys that are included in the metal. When gold is alloyed with silver, copper, and zinc, the shade of color will vary. When gold is alloyed with nickel, copper, and zinc, it becomes white gold. Yellow gold and white gold have very similar strength and malleability. White gold looks very similar to platinum, but the two have very different properties and prices.
Gold Color
The addition of alloying elements (other metals) to gold are used to increase the toughness and hardness of the metal, as well as change the color. Adjusting the proportions of coloring agents provides the array of colors on the market. Additional metals enhance properties such as castability, grain size, hardness, corrosion resistance, color, workability, ultimate strength, and others. These additions can dramatically change the properties of the karated metal for better or worse.
For example: 18 karat rose gold is 75%, or 18 parts fine gold and 25%, or 6 parts copper. It is the rich red copper combined with the pure yellow gold that creates a warm rosy tone. 14 karat white gold is 14 parts gold and 10 parts white metal, either nickel or palladium. These white metals dominate the color, creating a warm gray tone.
Typical metal used to achieve the desired gold color are:
Copper - Reddening
Silver - Greening
Zinc - Bleaching
Nickel - Whitening
Palladium - Whitening
Examples are:
Yellow Gold: copper, silver, zinc
White Gold: copper, nickel, zinc
Red (Rose) Gold: copper
Green Gold: silver
|Byre's Tip
Pure 24k gold is soft and easily bent; 14k and 18k gold is mixed with other metals for strength, and beauty. Be sure to chose 14k or 18k for beauty and durability.
For More Information
22 karat = 91.7% gold
18 karat = 75.0% gold
14 karat = 58.3% gold
12 karat = 50.0% gold
10 karat = 41.7% gold

I'm back! Well, I've been back since Sunday but you know how it is…trying to ease into the swing of things while your body and mind are still lounging in the warm afterglow of a fantastic holiday. So let me linger a bit longer in this post-vacation bliss by sharing it all with you…
I was eagerly looking forward to returning to Zamboanga after my first eventful trip there two years ago. During that trip I got my first taste of C's birth-city, my first taste of curacha, and my first taste of being engaged. Zamboanga delighted me at every corner, swirling around me in so many colors like the beautiful batiks you find in the market.
This year we went back with a bunch of friends in tow, which made the trip extra special…and extra fun! Every day was an adventure, whether we were eating (which we did in glorious excess!), shopping (again…glorious excess!), lying on a pristine beach (sweet island life…), painting the town red (viva Zamboanga!), or singing on stage (oh boy…this needs no further explanation I think). Nothing makes a holiday better than a fabulous group of people to share it with 🙂
Here are some of the highlights* of my trip:
Zamboanga Airport
Laid back and open air, with a roof designed to blend in with the native architecture and sunlight streaming through the skylights. A troupe of dancers sashay to local music to welcome you. Everyone is smiling and the exotic sound of chavacano tickles my ears. It is at this moment when I feel the complete disconnect from Manila and from work. Heaven!
Knickerbockers and Crispy noodles at Palmeras
Palmeras was the lovely hotel we stayed at. Relatively new-ish (compared to the old, venerable Lantaka by the sea), it has nice clean rooms, friendly staff, and a pretty garden to hang out in. It also has a great café that serves Knickerbockers – a pile of fruits (bananas, watermelon, mango) and jello cubes in a glass, topped with a scoop of strawberry ice cream. It is at once sweet & luscious, and cool & refreshing. I cannot count how many of these concoctions we consumed as a group…too many I'm sure! And every other table in the place seemed to be ordering them as well! Aside from the blessed Knickerbocker, the Crispy Noodles with Seafood is also worth a taste – the sauce is thick and intensely flavorful with tender chunks of seafood all throughout, topped with a generous head of noodles, crispy on top and soft where they are soaked by the sauce. Palmeras Hotel & Restaurant, Pasonanca Road, Zamboanga City. Telefax – +63 62 9913284.
Shopping at the Barter Trade
Exploring Zamboanga City Market
I hadn't been to the main market the first time I visited Zamboanga, but because we had a contingent among us clamoring for durian off we went to get some. While the durian-eaters inspected the fruit, extolling the virtues of each variety, I wandered about looking at all the produce on display. Aside from the colorful fruit stalls they had the hugest daing (dried salted fish) I had ever seen! Later in the afternoon (yes, we went more than once…apparently cravings for durian are wild and unpredictable!) there were big hunks of tuna being loaded onto scales…although we weren't in our tuna capital (that would be General Santos), Zamboanga is still a treasure trove of all manners of seafood.
Jimmy's Satti Haus
Another bit of local eats I missed during my first trip. Satti is little bits of beef or chicken on a stick, grilled over hot coals, much like the Malaysian satay (as we are close neighbors the two could very likely be related). It is served with a sticky orange sauce which is both sweet and spicy. The satti is placed in a bowl literally swimming in the sauce together with rice that has been packed so much it is practically solid. I think we were a bit shocked at how small the satti pieces were, but we quickly found a way around that by simply eating more…heehee! We bought our satti at Jimmy's Satti Haus (Campaner cor. Brillantes)…get it fresh off the grill and don't forget the sauce and the rice! We ate ours plain because we got it to-go but I would have loved to have it with all the trappings! Next time I am definitely planting myself at a table and getting the full treatment!
Contemporary designers' take on the Mascota
The mascota is the dress traditionally worn by the high-society Zamboanga ladies of yore. It is said to be Spanish in origin, which is easy to believe as many things in Zamboanga (including its language) seem to originate from the Spanish. So as not to lose this tradition the city started a mascota competition where local designers create their own renditions of this beautiful costume. The competition this year was held in Fort Pilar and the old stone walls of the aged fort proved to be a magical backdrop for the charming models (each of them tall and tan and slim, with dark shining hair and a come-hither smile…I used to dream about looking like these girls when I was a child!) in their mascota finery. Here's an article you can read about the mascota competition last year.

Gregory's Palm Springs In the Suburbs
Name: Gregory McKinney
Location: Granada Hills, California
Type: 1960s Contemporary Modern
Size: 3bdr 2 bath 1731 sq ft, one story
Years lived in: since June 2005
Gregory only needed to send a single photo of his Granada Hill's home interior for us to decide that we needed to get out to his pad pronto. Tucked far back in the hills of suburbia, Gregory renovated a typical San Fernando Valley home into a livable homage to the Palm Spring aesthetic, its stylish spirit immediately apparent from first sight of the promising robin's egg blue door with starburst door knobs. It only got better once we stepped through the doors...
My/our Style: 1960s Contemporary Modern, Palm Springs-inspired.
The Inspiration for my home: Architecturally, it was its own inspiration, and wanted to make it as proper to its era as possible. The style was not intended to be hard-core "Modern," but a livable version of a desert home from the early 60's. Lots of lava rock and agave distinguish the yard from others on the street.
Favorite element: Architecturally, the front 'flagcrete' wall, or the tall windows in the living room/dining room areas.
Biggest challenge in designing my home: Redesigning and rehabbing the yards after 45 years of neglect.
What friends say about my home: "I feel like at my aunt and uncle's house!"
Biggest embarrassment in my home: The asphalt driveway… the only bad original element.
Proudest DIY: The grass cloth wallpaper. It took a lot of work to select it and install it.
Biggest Indulgence with respect to my home: The landscaping, as it took hundreds of hours of labor and thousands of dollars (and it's still not done).
Best Advice given or received: Do the hardest/priciest work sooner than later, save the details for last.
Dream Source for stuff: Other homes from the tract. But eBay has been the biggest source.
Has original Wedgewood & Holly stove and oven (fortunately), but new refrigerator and dishwasher (unfortunately). I want a refurbished refrigerator, which can be found at "Savon Appliances" in Burbank CA.
All original cabinet hardware was tossed with a quickie "update" done by former owner, requiring searching for appropriate vintage replacements. This took about a year to accomplish, and is one of my proudest aspects. I know a good eBay seller for this.
Makers such as Selig (sofa and two Poulsen "Z" chairs), Overman (swivel chairs), Gunlocke (living room slipper chairs), Lane and Vista (bedroom pieces), and two large console stereos by Zenith and Braun. I refinished virtually all the wooden pieces.
A wide assortment of comical owls, fish, ashtrays and candle holders, but mostly vintage wall clocks, and many of them. I restore the clocks and sell them to designers and collectors. I am a restorer of Howard Miller wall clocks from the 1940s-60s.
All the sconces and pendant lighting had been trashed before we bought, so I had free reign to do what I wanted. All Home Depot junk was pitched and interesting vintage lighting took its place. I have added some great lighting by Progress, Thomas-Moe and Lightolier with several tension pole lamps ranging from mild to wild. All received new wiring and a new paint or stain when necessary. The lights make the house, inside and out.
Also installed low-volt lighting out front for nice night appeal.
The entire house got an off-white cover-over before it was sold, so we had a blank slate moving in. The current dominant interior colors are light to dark taupe, with green and gray-blue in two bedrooms. More accent painting is slated.
All the flooring was stripped out before moving in, and an interesting linoleum look-alike laminate was installed in the entry and family/dining room. It was largely real linoleum tile previously. I had both baths floored with a wonderful vinyl sheet in taupe squares, and it looks quite vintage.
Rugs and Carpets
Generic tan-taupe carpet was installed by previous owner for sale-appeal. It's a so-so quality, and will stay as long as it holds up.
Tiles and Stone
The original kitchen tile and bathroom marble counters are all intact, and in decent condition. Kitchen backsplash has wonderful funky blue polka dots all around the perimeter.
Window Treatments
All windows have matching off-white wood blinds in 2" wide strips. Living room and dining room sliding glass doors have simple hand-drawn rod-hung off-white linen curtains.
Two queen beds; Selig Z chairs in third bedroom which functions as a TV room.
Various prints and sculptures, but nothing really expensive or all that collectible… only what works for the space given to it.
The overall theme is Palm Springs inspired contemporary with California desert landscaping. The front yard is dominated by a monstrous green agave, which is about 20 feet wide and 8 feet tall. It determined the "look" as it was not going anywhere—it is deadly! I have grown to love it and worked around it.

According to this review article, exercise can strengthen and improve overall musculoskeletal and physiologic health as well as pregnancy related symptoms. Exercise such as aerobics, impact and nonimpact activities, resistance training and swimming:
-- eases back and other musculoskeletal pain;
-- lowers maternal blood pressure;
-- reduces swelling; and
-- improves post-partum mood, including sadness.
According to study author Capt. Marlene DeMaio, M.D., M.C., U.S.N., Research Director, Naval Medical Center, Portsmouth, Virginia, data shows that the pregnant woman's body can compensate for the changes with no harm to the fetus during low to moderate intensity exercise.
"It is important to remember that pregnancy is a temporary condition, not a disease, and that the musculoskeletal and physiologic changes that happen are normal in the majority of patients," she said. Capt. DeMaio's findings contradict what some physicians recommended in the past. As recently as the 1990s, there was concern that exercise could be detrimental to a pregnant woman and her fetus. These past concerns included a focus on normal changes related to musculoskeletal health that occur during pregnancy, such as increased ligament laxity, weight gain and change in the center of gravity. Today, some physicians continue to advise their pregnant patients to ease back on exercise or refrain from it altogether if they have not already made it a part of their lifestyle.
DeMaio, who collaborated with Capt. Everett Magann, M.D., M.C. U.S.N., Chairman in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, also at the Naval Medical Center in Portsmouth, not only reports that exercise is important during pregnancy, but also believes that starting an exercise program when pregnant, is a perfect way to begin - and stick with - a fitness program.
"When a woman becomes pregnant, she often re-evaluates her lifestyle," said Dr. DeMaio. "She is motivated in a new way to deliver a healthy baby, and be healthy herself."
Physicians may recommend exercise for pregnant patients in the following categories:
-- Prenatal: Patients should begin or continue low to moderate exercise. The goal is to maintain fitness and adapt exercise as needed as pregnancy progresses. (For example, runners might switch to running in a swimming pool later in their pregnancy.)
-- Postnatal: Continue exercising at low to moderate levels. Lactation is not negatively affected by exercise. There are fewer reports of mothers having post-partum depression or mood changes when they are exercising.
-- Older: Exercise is even more important if the patient is older, according to Dr. DeMaio. The risk for high blood pressure and increased glucose goes up the older a patient is, but exercise can help reduce these levels.
-- Obese: Physicians should discuss pregnancy as an opportunity to improve overall health and suggest the patient start exercise for life-long health and as an example to the child when the child is older.
-- Infertile: Even if a woman is under treatment for infertility, she can exercise under the supervision of her obstetrician.
-- Athlete: For a pregnant woman wanting more strenuous exercise, or who wants to increase training from moderate to high intensity, a qualified doctor should direct her exercise program.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
Four French Israelis gunned down in cold blood outside a Jewish school in Toulouse, France this week were laid to rest in Jerusalem on Wednesday.
On Monday, a gunmen who has now been identified as an Al Qaeda activist, pulled up in front of the school as students were arriving and gunned down Rabbi Yonathan Sandler, 30, as he was holding his two sons, 3-year-old Gavriel and 8-year-old Arieh, who were both also killed in the attack. The assailant then ran into the entrance of the school where he summarily executed 8-year-old Miriam Monsonego, daughter of the school's headmaster.
All four victims were flown to Israel, and were buried together in Jerusalem's Givat Shaul Cemetery. The funeral was attended by thousands of mourners and was presided over by government ministers and Israel's two chief rabbis.
Knesset Speaker Reuven Rivlin delivered a powerful eulogy that sought to tear down the myth that anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism are not related.
"The Jewish people face wild and insatiable animals, wild animals made crazy by their hatred, murderers who do not distinguish between a settler and a leftist, a Jew in Israel and a Jew in the Diaspora," said Rivlin. "They are aware of the unbreakable bond between all Jews. They understand that the divides between us are just an illusion."
Sephardic Chief Rabbi Shlomo Amar broke down in tears as he eulogized little Miriam.
French Foreign Minister Alain Juppe was also in attendance, and assured the gathered Israelis that "your grief, your pain is ours too. All of France is in shock."
Meanwhile in Toulouse, local police managed to track down the killer, 24-year-old Mohammed Merah, an Algerian citizen of France. Merah proudly identified himself as an Al Qaeda operative, and said his actions had been in response to Israel's alleged mistreatment of the Palestinians.
Police engaged Merah in a day-long standoff at his apartment that had still not ended by press time. French officials said that Merah had promised to turn himself in without further bloodshed.

I first came across this idea by reading Dianne Francis's book "Merger of the century" and from there started on a journey of educating myself in regards to the subject of North American integration. I've collected Robert Pastor's "The North American Idea", and "Toward a North American community" at in march and over the last months or so i've also stockpiled several books i've yet to get through: "Brave new Canada", "Canada and the United States: Ambivalent Allies", and "Drifting Together: the political economy of Canada-US Integration".
The subject is dense, to say the least. Recently, I had the third or forth conversation on the possibility of the merging of nations with a roommate. His initial response was that he feared something like that would lead to a "one world government" and went on to elaborate on the potential dangers of an open boarder (these were mostly terroristic in nature). I am sold on this idea, i believe it would strengthen both our respective nations for numerous reasons but i have heard echoes of my roommates argument in the voices of various blogs, political sites, while researching this topic online as well.
I suppose my question is, what has been your experience in sharing this idea with others? What are the main arguments of opposition? Every movement starts smalls, but what is our plan for growth?

Jessa Duggar Is Pregnant Again - And She's Hinting TWINS!!
The Duggar brood just keeps growing!
Jessa Duggar and husband Ben Seewald made the exciting announcement yesterday that they're expecting another baby - just nine months after welcoming little Spurgeon.
And the young couple couldn't be happier.
"We're overjoyed to announce that Spurgeon has a new title in life, as 'big brother!'" they told People. "We are so thankful that God is adding to our family."
The Duggars, who came to fame in reality TV show 19 Kids and Counting, were forced into the spotlight last year when it was revealed that eldest son Josh had sexually assaulted some of his younger sisters - including Jessa.
Jessa and Ben also shared a series of sweet photos, with their cheeky nine-month-old bub clutching at a chalkboard that says "Doubling the Love - Feb. 2017".
"We know Spurgeon will do a great job in his role," the Seewalds continued. "Having Spurgeon has been such a wonderful blessing and we cannot wait to see the face of this sweet new baby (or babies!)."
It certainly wouldn't be a surprise if Jessa was carrying twins; with two sets of twins among her impressive sibling count, they definitely run in the family!
Michelle and Jim Bob, the head of the Duggar clan, took to Facebook to share their excitement, writing: "Every child is a precious gift from God! We are so excited about another grandchild!"
Baby Seewald will make the religious couple grandparents for the seventh time.
Jessa, 23, is believed to be three months pregnant, and, while she has made no secret of her desire to have more children, the news means that she has pipped older sister Jill, who also has one son, to the pregnancy post.
During the May season finale of the sisters' new show, Counting On, Jill, 25, hinted that she thought she would be the first to fall pregnant.
"I think we will probably be pregnant at the same time," she said. "But to say who will be first, well, Israel is older... so we will see."
The two sisters have also talked at length about adoption, so it seems that, either way, it won't be too much longer until even more exciting baby news is announced.

MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. – Both Georgia College baseball and softball teams teamed with the Thunder Crew, Georgia College's student spirit group, to come away with wins in their "Play for Abe" games dedicated to raise money for Abram Gainous, a child who suffers from leukemia.
Abram is the son of GC men's basketball assistant coach Mark Gainous and his wife Tasha, a former GC women's basketball assistant. Abe was diagnosed with leukemia in May of 2012 at the age of two and although he is now in remission he continues to make visits to Egleston Hospital in Atlanta for treatments.
Despite Abe's battle with the disease, the energetic two year old refuses to let anything stand in his way, which was made clear when he made an appearance at the baseball and softball games the weekend of March 16. Abe enthusiastically set the tone by throwing ceremonial first pitches for each of the games. This enthusiasm carried over to the teams as they walked away with a winning weekend.
After the weekend, GC Athletics and Thunder Crew were able to present the Gainous family with over $800 raised, all of which will go back to support Abe and his family and ensure his continual improvement.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, two-time winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 11 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement. Sign up at www.twitter.com/BobcatSports and www.facebook.com/gcbobcats for up-to-the-minute reports, and visit www.GCBobcats.com for more information, and to nominate your favorite former Bobcats and Colonials to the GC Athletics Hall of Fame.

Family Tree Entertainment held its third annual pre-Grammy brunch in Beverly Hills, Calif. Sat. (Feb. 9), celebrating the life of music exec, Chris Lighty.
Music manager, Michael "Blue" Williams of Family Tree Entertainment hosted the soiree held at BOA steak house, and co- sponsored by Monster Energy Drink, Morgan Stanley, and FLUD.
Guests were treated to "Blue" Berry Mimosas and "Blue" Belini signature cocktails, courtesy of Moet and Red Bull. There was also a complimentary savory buffet. Williams was joined by music industry executives and celebrities like Jordin Sparks, Eric Benet, and New York Knicks player, Baron Davis.
The theme of the event was "Managing You First," in remembrance of Lighty who died last summer, of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Williams grabbed everyone's attention with a touching speech about Lighty, his longtime friend and partner. "We were honored to have been able to celebrate the life and legacy of music mogul Chris Lighty, among some of the best leaders in management," Williams said in a statement to Hip-Hop Wired. "And what better way to honor Chris than during Grammy weekend, leading up to music's biggest night?"
His address was followed by live presentation about wellness in management lead by entertainment music veteran and Certified Personal Development coach, Sheri Riley of GLUE. Riley spoke on the importance of spiritual health, while Marilyn F. Booker, a 19+ year Morgan Stanley veteran, shared her expertise on finance. Celebrity trainer and founder of Don-A-Matrix Training, Don "DB" Brooks was on hand to talk fitness, and Dr. Jeremy Fine, founder of a concierge boutique medical practice near L.A., offered his expertise on health living.
