The following is a blog post from Operation Frontline volunteer and Y Combs Elementary class assistant, Jo Sharples. Her experiences with Operation Frontline and Plant A Row for the Hungry are valued. Jo's dedication to these programs is inspiring the OFL students to continue learning the value of nutrition while helping the community.
A Parent's Perspective
I recently volunteered as class assistant for a 6 week Kids Up Front class. I feel motivated to share my experience because I was so impressed with the quality of the program and believe it had a positive impact on my own life, as well as the lives of the participants.
I decided to volunteer for Operation Frontline, as I strongly believe that kids should be educated about nutrition and the benefits of healthy food choices. I wanted to help this worthy cause and in the process hoped to learn practical ways to go about changing my own kids eating behavior. I am a mother of 2 fussy eaters, aged 9 and 5. Although I eat healthily and buy a variety of fruits and vegetables, my 5-year-old son especially refuses to eat them.
I was impressed by the high standard of the course material and the professionalism of the volunteer Chef (Maria) and Nutritionist (Tonya). I loved the hands on approach, teaching kids to cook. It was encouraging to see 9-11 year old kids using sharp chef's knives and cooking at the stove. I had never thought of letting my daughter do more than stir with a wooden spoon. So as the weeks progressed I began letting her chop a variety of vegetables and get involved in cooking at home. She really loved it and I realized that I need to be more organized about involving her regularly.
The highlight of the class for me was observing how the kids tried everything and had 2nd, sometimes 3rd, helpings of healthy food. I think it was proof that if you get kids involved in the cooking process they will be more willing to try to eat new foods. Particularly memorable was the smoothie made from frozen berries, almond milk and LOTS of spinach leaves. Chef Maria named it Zombie Blood, which went down well with this age group. Despite protesting about the spinach, the kids all tried it and many came back for more!
As part of the course, the kids get to plant snow pea seeds to take home and nurture. I enjoyed sharing my own gardening experience... Just recently my kids and myself have started volunteering at a community garden in Apex, and growing our own vegetables and fruit at home (tomatoes, bell peppers, carrots, onions, zucchini, mixed greens, strawberries, melon, and a variety of culinary herbs.).
I have also taken on the task of introducing an edible garden at my kid's elementary school, supported by the PTA. We now have 6 raised beds, built by local scout groups, and my intention is that the teachers will be able to use this as a hands on resource - to connect with nature and learn about healthier eating. We plan to donate any food grown to the Inter-Faith Food Shuttle Plant a Row program, to raise awareness of child hunger in Wake county. This edible garden can therefore link to curriculum goals in social studies, science and healthful living. During the class, we talked about the availability of fresh produce grown at local farms and the environmental impact of buying food transported across county or imported from abroad.
I hope that the kids in this class share their knowledge with their parents and use the recipes in the take home booklets. My experience supporting the Kids Up Front class reinforced that the keys to changing kids eating behavior are: educating kids (and their parents) about nutrition and healthy food choices; exposing kids (and parents) to new healthy foods or foods that they are familiar with prepared in a novel or healthier way; getting kids (and parents) interested in growing fruit and vegetables at home, school or at a community garden; teaching basic cooking skills to develop confidence in the kitchen; and sitting to eat a (home) cooked meal together. I would love to see this program offered in all schools and look forward to volunteering again soon.

Alexis & Ryan's Woodland Themed Baby Shower
This past weekend my family celebrated my sister and her husband's (first of two) baby shower for their little baby boy, Hunter! I have been planning and putting together all the details for the party over the past few months, so I was very excited to see it all come together! We wanted to have a very woodland/woodsy theme for the baby shower, including little woodland animal figurines, lots of greenery and pine cones, and a trail mix bar! I purchased almost everything at Michael's, did a little faux-calligraphy on the board below, and put together fresh floral arrangements the morning of the shower. Big thank you to my mom and Emma for helping me with everything!

Last night, June twenty-third, two thousand and eighteen, I took photos for my favorite band/group/duo on this planet: Oh Wonder.
But before I get into how I got a photo pass & took photos for OW, we need to go back in time. Back in high school I had a friend that was always turning me on to new music; he had an uncanny ability to see talent and potential in artists. He turned me on to the likes of Mac Miller, Kendrick, Chance, and countless others before they were mainstream and had mostly little notoriety (shoutout to you, Jake). So back in 2014, when he hit me up and told me to check out this duo from London called Oh Wonder, I knew I had no choice but to listen. So I typed their name into Google, listened to my first song, and was immediately hooked on their sound. A mix of bright, energetic synthpop and some slower, moody vibes. They only had 2 or 3 songs on Soundcloud and hadn't played a single concert together. Over the course of the next year, Josephine and Anthony (their real names) released one song on the first day of each month – and let me tell you, the anticipation as a new month approached was overwhelming. As they slowly put out more and more music, the world began to notice in a big way. It seemed like within weeks of finishing their first album, OW was stomping through a world tour, playing at festivals like Bonnaroo and Lolla. In the summer of 2016, I was fortunate enough to see them play a show in Indy at an intimate venue downtown, with only ~400 people there. After indulging in their music for two years, listening through the album easily hundreds of time, I was 20 feet away from them. That night still vividly plays in my mind – it was incredible.
Flash forward to a few months ago, I found out OW was playing a show in Kansas City, and it just so happened to be at a venue literally two blocks from my new apartment; I can see the building from my window! So I bought two tickets (assuming I could find a friend, yikes) and got all excited to see Anthony and Josephine in concert again. Weeks later, I had the idea to email their management & ask to take photos for them during their show (this was about a month ago). I kept it short & sweet and plugged my website, knowing A&Rs are busy and likely wouldn't reply if they saw a long email to read through – hell, I wouldn't either. Delete. Despite my efforts, no response. I followed up a week ago and asked again. Persistence is key, right? Nope. Still no response. Then the day of the concert arrived, and I walked over to the outdoor venue while they were setting up equipment and asked a sound guy about talking to their manager to shoot photos and he seemed 100% not about it – he would barely look at me. Walking home to my apartment, mildly defeated but expecting this result anyway. "At least you tried" I kept telling myself.
2 hours before the concert started, I checked my email. I don't know why I did… it was a Saturday evening, who the hell sends emails on a Saturday evening?? Oh Wonder, apparently. "Hey Austin… (yada yada yada) … appreciate it's probably pretty late but if you wanted to shoot photos let us know and we'll give you a photo pass." I almost threw up. Maybe talking to that sound guy earlier in the day paid off. Did he go mention some annoying kid was trying to take photos tonight and said the manager wasn't emailing him back? Maybe. Either way, I was about to get exclusive, in-front-of-the-crowd access to take photos of my favorite music artists for my first time taking concert photos. Yup, I've never shot a concert before. I furiously typed a quick response and hustled down to the venue, camera in hand, to get my pass.
For concert photography, you are only allowed up in the front for the first 3 songs, so it's quite hectic shooting up there and trying to get a bunch of shots in only 10-12 minutes. Not to mention the shooting conditions are super difficult at times! Normally I take portraits or landscapes where you have tons of time to be methodical, get all my camera settings just right, frame it perfectly, etc. Not at concerts. The lighting is constantly changing and there are other photographers up there with you trying to get their shots, too. Plus, I was a little nervous! After the 3 songs were (sadly) over, I had to leave my special little area but I got to keep my camera with me. I took tons of photos from in the crowd, which gives that cool first-person "I feel like I'm actually there" kind of vibe to the photos.
After 90 minutes of having an absolute blast taking pics, the show was over. I had successfully taken hundreds of photos. I ran home and dumped them all on my laptop, knowing it would take a while to upload them all. I'm not sure what I expected – I didn't look at the photos too much as I was taking them. But when I went to edit them today I honestly started hyperventilating a bit. Although I'm normally easily excited about editing photos, I was more-than-normal ecstatic considering it was my first concert shoot ever. I was, as OW calls it on their newest album, High on Humans. As much as I love photos of stunning landscapes or animals, there is something special about capturing people. Going through them earlier today I honestly jumped and down at one point… yeah.
Anywho – enough words already! I present to you: Oh Wonder.

The University of Otago
Department of Microbiology & Immunology
CONTACT PI: Sergio Morales [email]
University of Canterbury - Sergio Morales
Our goal is to understand how microbes survive in the environment, and how their presence affects ecosystem processes like primary productivity and nutrient turnover. By understanding how microorganisms adapt and respond to environmental cues we can harness some of their power, and predict how ecosystems will react to environmental changes. Our lab has two primary research areas: soils and marine environments. Within the marine space the lab collaborates with the Baltar lab to run the MOTS (Munida Microbial Observatory Time-Series) project. This long-term ecological research site focuses on time series analysis of microbial communities within marine communities in the NZ Subtropical Frontal Zone. Our work through MOTS established the importance of marine ecotones as boundaries for microbial communities. In soils, the labs interest center on the role of unaccounted for microbes and pathways in controlling N2O emissions. Currently we are elucidating the ecological rules controlling responses to N deposition in pasture soils.
- Microbial community structuring
- Nitrogen cycling and greenhouse gas emissions in soils
- Munida Microbial Observatory Time Series Project (MOTS)

Chapter 1: The match is lit.
- Spoiler:
- "… And with these parting words, I wish you new students the best of luck with your studies here at Vanguard Academy." An elderly man with a gray goatee walked off the stage after finishing his speech. The crowd shuffled out into the courtyard of a large school, students busily rushing around campus, heading from class to class.
"This school is way too crowded…" thought a pink haired girl wearing a tank-top and shorts. Her boots made a clunking noise as they met the ground. Attached to her upper thigh was a deck box with the US Marines logo etched into it. Her hair was tied into a tight ponytail, with two locks hanging on either side of her face. "Now where was my classroom again?" She pulled out a school map, looking it over quickly. "Aha, room 435, got it." As she was folding her map up a group of older boys began to surround her.
"Hey guys, look at what we got here, a cute freshmen!" said one boy with greasy hair and crooked glasses.
"Yeah! She's really cute! Her tits are pretty big too!" another boy in the group, this one fat with a greasy face reached out towards her chest. The look on her face remained expressionless, her hand poised to snap the fat kids hands.
"What do you guys think you're doing?" came a voice from behind the group.
"Uh! Nothing!" shouted one of the boys, turning around to see a skinny kid, with medium length black hair. "Oh, it's just another freshmen, get out of here kid." The new kid stepped forward, peering into the circle, seeing a girl with an expression of quiet hatred.
"Doesn't look like nothing." Said the boy, breaking the circle and dragging the girl out. "You okay?"
"Trust me, I'm fine." She responds coldly. "These losers decided to encircle me, probably hoping I wouldn't scream or anything."
"Really? That's kinda a pathetic." Scoffed the black haired freshmen. "I'm Everest by the way, Everest Leoheart." His English accent permeating through his Japanese.
"Roxanne, Roxanne Smith." Replied the girl, completely ignoring the boys from before, who had snuck off to avoid suspicion. "But I was doing just fine, I wasn't in any trouble at all." Everest shrugged in response.
"So, what clan do you use? I use Oracle Think Tank."
"Tachikaze, a gift from my father." She continued curtly. "If you don't mind I have to get to class."
"O-Okay, I'll see you around." Said Everest, watching her walk off quickly. "Man, what's her problem?" He shrugged it off and headed to class. The room was a large auditorium, filled will what seemed to be all freshmen. He looked around for an open seat, spotting one near a pink haired girl. "Hey, it's Roxanne!" he thought, letting himself fall into the seat next to her "What's up! Didn't think we'd have class together."
"Not this joker again." She silently rolled her eyes, giving him the smallest of acknowledgements, as the teacher walked in to begin the lecture. About midway through class the back door to the classroom creaks open, everyone turning their heads to see a boy with messy brown hair shoved into a back and green hat. His half zipped up jacked showed his green shirt underneath, his dark blue jeans falling beneath his shoes.
"Hello, and can you tell us why you're late, you didn't get lost did you?" asked the teacher, stopping his lecture.
"No, I didn't get lost, I knew where I was going." Replied the boy. "I just really didn't want to come." The class laughed at the boys words.
"Well, can I get your name?" responded the teacher, a bit flustered.
"Matt Barker. Nice to meet you." He said, finding a seat at the back of the class.
"Mr. Barker, would you care to have a demonstrative fight with me for the class?" asked the teacher, holding back a bit of anger.
"I'd like not to embarrass the teacher on the first day of class, so, no thanks." Replied Matt, waving off the teacher like a fly, the class erupting in laughter.
"Show your elders some respect!" shouted Roxanne, standing up in a hurry.
"Who the hell are you?" said Matt with a little laugh. "The teacher's pet on the first day? You sure don't waste any time."
"Easy both of you!" commanded the teacher. If you're going to fight, fight with your cards, not your fists." The two walked to the front of the classroom, setting their cards up on the teacher's desk, the rest of the class crowding around them.
"Stand up! The Vanguard!" called the two, flipping their cards up.
"Lizard Soldier! Conroe!" shouted Matt, Roxanne flipping over Dragon Egg.
"I'll go first." Said Roxanne "I ride Sonic Noah, and move Dragon Egg to a rear guard circle. Your turn."
"I draw, and ride Embodiment of Armor, Bahr, I move Conroe to a rear guard and call Iron Tail Dragon behind the Vanguard. With a boost from Iron Tail, Bahr attacks!" With a no guard signal from Roxanne, Matt proceeded to drive check. "Critical trigger, I give all the effects to my Vanguard." Roxanne damage checked the top two cards of her deck, beginning her turn.
"I ride Ravenous Dragon, Megarex! I call Assault Dragon, Blightops and Pterodactyl Dragon Skyptera! With a boost from Skyptera, Blightops attacks!" Matt allowed the attack, taking a damage. "Now, Megarex attacks." She checked the top card of her deck, "Draw trigger. I give the power to my Vanguard, and I draw a card." Matt took another damage and began his turn.
"I ride Blazing Core Dragon, and call Gatling Claw Dragon!" said Matt, beginning his play.
"Uh oh, he's set up for a superior call on his second turn, how good is this kid?" thought the teacher.
"Counter blast! I move Iron Tail and Gatling Claw to the soul, and search for a Blazing Flare Dragon. Your burning flame embodies everything that is hatred, arise and decimate the land! Superior Ride! Blazing Flare Dragon! Call! Dragonic Overlord, Embodiment of Armor, Bahr, and Heatnail Salamander!" The entire class let out gasps of awe at the newly refreshed field, stocked with Grade 3s.
"With a boost from Salamander! Blazing Flare Dragon attacks!"
"I only have two damage so… No guard!" called Roxanne after some deliberation. Matt turned over the first card from his deck.
"Critical Trigger. I the critical to my Vanguard, and the power to my Dragonic Overlord. Next check… Critical Trigger. Same as last time." Roxanne flipped over three damage, a look of worry on her face.
"I… I can't guard, I don't have enough shields…" she stared at her hand, which contained two Tyrant Deathrex's and a Pterodactyl Skyptera.
"I should have called final turn, would have been much more fun. With a boost from Salamander, Overlord attacks." Roxanne hung her head in defeat as her last card revealed no trigger. "Tch. I would have at least hoped you would have given me a challenge, with that kind of talk." Said Matt, walking out of the class room, leaving Roxanne with the rest of the class. "So this is why you sent me here, father? To fight against weak opponents who can't last more than two turns? Loving father you are."
"H-hey Roxanne, it's alright, everyone has a bad game." Said Everest, placing a hand on her shoulder, "His personality, I don't think he has any fun, all I can see in him when he fights is hatred, for what I don't know." He thought, walking out of the classroom as the teacher dismissed class. He continued to stay in deep thought as he slammed into a girl in the hallway "Oh, I'm sorry! I wasn't watching where I was going!" said Everest, helping the girl up. Her shoulder length hair bouncing as he got to her feet, Her bright green eyes hid by her dulled eye lids.
"It's alright, not like I was going anywhere important anyways. I'm Zell Pendragon"
"Everest Leoheart." He said, shaking her hand. "So, you a freshmen too?" she responded with a nod, walking out into the sun. Her pale skin almost glowing in the reflection. "So, what brings you here, Mountain Man?"
"Mountain Man?" Everest laughed at the quirky name.
"Mountain Man, your name's Everest, you're named after a mountain, Mountain Man." She gave a smile. Everest looked over to see Matt sitting under a tree, looking like he was sleeping.
"Hey! Matt!" he called. The boy responded with a raised eyebrow.
"Do I know you?" he retorted quickly.
"We're in the same class. That was one hell of a fight."
"Thanks, I guess."
"Hey, you guys wanna go grab some lunch? I'm hungry." Said Zell, rubbing her stomach.
"Sure, I'm down, how about you, Matt?" asked Everest
"Do I have to?" asked Matt through one eye.
"Yes, now get up." Said Everest, jerking him up by his arms, the three heading into the cafeteria.

The upcoming Clasico threatens to be the most one-sided Barcelona vs Real Madrid showdown in some time.
With Barca flying at the top of the La Liga table and Zinedine Zidane's men limping along a massive 10 points behind their rivals, many experts think Los Blancos will need a minor miracle to win the huge clash at the Nou Camp.
The international break - and the travelling involved for certain players - may just have provided it.
Even in the pampered world of superstar footballers and their luxury private jets, air travel is exhausting. Changing time zones, eating tiny packets of peanuts, being encased in a tin box several thousand feet up in the air… none of these things are ideal preparation for one of the biggest games on the planet.
In pictures: Barcelona hammering Real 4-0 back in November
So the fact neither Gareth Bale (fitness/fatherhood) nor Karim Benzema (other reasons) reported for international duty can only be good for Zidane - especially as Cristiano Ronaldo only needed to make the short trip to Portugal and back.
Let's compare those straightforward plans with how Barcelona's famous 'MSN' prepared for Spain's biggest game. Lionel Messi had to travel to Chile and Argentina, Luis Suarez went to Brazil and Uruguay and Neymar flew to Brazil and Paraguay.
In terms of recent air miles, the difference in the rival attacking units is pretty remarkable:
Total international break travel
Real Madrid's BBC
882 km
Barcelona's MSN
62,352 km
Or, to put it another way:
Total KM travelled during international break
Or to put it yet another way:
Barcelona's MSN travelled 71 times further than Real Madrid's BBC during the international break.
Will it make a difference come the big game? Only time will tell. But we're pretty sure Real will take any help they can get at the moment…

I haven't updated this blog since I joined thoughtbot in 2012. This was due to a combination of lacking the time to do proper research outside working hours and finding better venues for technical writing. I was convinced that it's better to spend my time fixing things rather than writing about it. But as time went on, I started to realize that writing about something is the best way to get it out of your system and move on to the next thing.
Given how tiny my blog audience got over the last 3 years, I considered moving to Medium as a way to grow my readership though social connections. But that idea didn't last long; no amount of perks can convince me to write on a closed platform where I can't affect neither the writing nor the reading experience.
In the end, I decided to move the old content from
kaishinlab.com to this blog and set up redirects when necessary—a prime example of the freedom you unlock when you have control over you data.
It feels good to be back.

I totally agree with Nancy Caviness' letter dated Feb. 8, titled "A solution."
I also am a "member of the elderly majority." Myself and others would be willing to volunteer
in many needed areas of our schools.
The only possible obstacles might be liability issues and firm commitment of volunteers.
Mr. Coen and members of the school board, please consider Ms. Caviness' proposal.
Maybe together we could save some valued school programs from being eliminated.

3. Try to stick to low-sugar beverages and drink more water. Try all sorts of tea – black, oolong, and green – for an antioxidant flavor boost.
4. Every step counts. Walk everywhere, whether it's to the grocery store or to work. Take the stairs whenever you can. If you have to be on the phone, pace around while you talk, or do jumping jacks during TV commercial breaks. Regular movement has an infinite number of benefits.

Some people are shocked by my candidness in my book, Mothering Mother–about my resentment, my anger, my fears about caregiving. I wrote my book in "real time," as I was caregiving, so the exhaustion, the confusion, the rabid fear are all there–blemished and flawed. Even though my story is at times, scary, I would have given anything for such a guide–for someone to tell me the truth about caregiving–however gritty it might be.
My mother had Parkinson's for years. We had grown accustomed to the medications, the schedule, the times or days when nothing worked–and while it was challenging, we had no idea what was to come. My mother also had some heart disease. She had had a mild heart attack and was taking medication, but it was nothing like my dad's heart condition–he struggled for every breath. But the coup de grâce was when she started showing signs of dementia/Alzheimer's. It was like juggling five plates in the air while tap dancing on an open fire. Alzheimer's tested my mother, me, my family, and all of our relationships in every way possible.
So I thought I'd recap a few truths I learned about caregiving along the way.
- Caregiving will uncover every fear and flaw you have. This isn't to destroy you, but it is an opportunity to learn about yourself.
- Do what's in your heart. Don't care-give because you think you should do it because you love someone, and do it in the way that's best for you–part-time, full-time, in your home, in theirs, placing them in a care facility–it's nobody's business–you're the one giving the care and it's between you and your loved one.
- At times, you will over-extend yourself–BIG TIME. You will be sleep deprived, perhaps abuse some substance–food, alcohol, sleep meds–just to get by. You will at times, ignore your health, ignore your other relationships, and take yourself to the bitter edge. It's just part of the process. Sometimes, there's no one else to help you, and you go and do and push past what's sane or smart. Just try not to stay there.
- You will be really ugly. You will curse, get violent (hopefully with a pillow). snap and yell…and you'll feel really bad.
- You'll want to quit, give up, and run away. It probably won't happen on a bad day, or a day you lose your temper. It will just come over you. A calm, "I'm done," feeling. Sometimes it happens because you're so bone-tired you can't see straight, and for others, it's because you've done all you can and something in you knows you need to stop.
- You probably won't get to quit caregiving when you want to or need to. Exits usually have to be planned. Your love and commitment will keep you from just driving off. Fantasize about it all you want–it's a great stress reliever, but when it's time for a change, make a plan that's good for everyone.
- Alzheimer's in particular taught me to dig deep inside myself and decide what kind of daughter (and person) I was going to be. Was I going to be mean just because my mother was mean to me? Was I going to let go of all the petty hurts that had built up over the years? Was I going to be able to hold true, love deep, and stay committed to my mother's care even if her mind completely unhinged? These were the challenges I faced every day–the ethics of the heart that I had to ask myself again and again.
- There are things you'll never tell anyone. Both tender, private moments–and times when you really lost it, or didn't do what you know you should have done. Eventually, you have to accept all aspects of caregiving. You'll have to incorporate all of you–forgive yourself for things you'd never want to admit, and even praise yourself for the few times you really stepped up to the plate. Most people have a harder time accepting the good in them–than admitting to their dark side. Sad, to think that we can hate ourselves easier than love ourselves.
- Death is really scary, but you can do it. If you're one of those people who haven't been around a lot of people dying in your family, then all this is going to seem really foreign. Death and dying are like a lot of things-it's more scary in concept than in reality. When it's your mom, dad, brother, sister, spouse, it's in some ways cathartic. It's finishing something. It's biological and quiet. Part of it can be a grueling pressure, and if the dying process lasts for days or weeks, it's really, really hard–but by then you'll need to stay and see it through. You'll be glad you did it. There's something about closure that's really, really important. Don't miss this part of your journey. There's much to learn. It's also healing, whole, and part of what it means to be here on earth.
I now look back at my caregiving years with a sense of reconciliation. It didn't happen all at once. The first year after my mom had died, I felt that I killed her–that I had let her down. I couldn't keep her alive. I had to accept me, her, her–Alzheimer's and all.
How else will we learn if we don't accept the opportunities and circumstances that come our way?

A Walk In the Park
Oh Fall. Isn't it just the prettiest time of year? Up here in Rexburg, all the trees are changing and the colors are just so vibrant. I love it. However, this week the temperature dropped so suddenly, I wanted to cry, but of course that won't do because my tears would be frozen within minutes of walking outside. Here are some shots from my walks through Porter Park as well as the Nature Park in Rexburg. I included some of the shots I worked on for my "light" project in photo class, as well as a few others. It has been hard to take pictures in black and white because the colors are so beautiful, so enjoy the color photos too! :)

Organ and Keyboard Cavalcade Review by Ian King
This is another in the series of budget price releases from the founder of the Audicord label (of which we now own the organ 'arm') and now owner of OK Rollem Productions, Ken Mellor.
It's the first of two new titles released on November 1st, this one being a Bryan Rodwell concert recorded in January 1978 on the Wurlitzer Organ in The Granada Cinema, Clapham Junction. The cinema opened in 1937 with its three-manual, eight-rank Wurlitzer (and grand piano). It was the third largest theatre in the Granada Cinema chain, but eventually closed in 1997.
This concert was recorded by the late Alan Humby with cassettes of it (and various other concerts) being made available to members of The Bryan Rodwell Cavendish Club, which he ran during its brief life. Considering the concert was recorded over thirty-five years ago, the sound is pretty good too. The inlay (written by Alan Ashton who now owns the Humby masters) says it contains Bryan at his finest and I would not disagree.
Although the CD is over an hour, it only contains five tracks with track four being an epic medley of sixteen tunes and just under thirty-two minutes, taking up over half the CD.

Nov 3rd, 2018
In August, I wore this stunning Chloé dress to a friend's wedding in California, where the weather was warm and clear. The wedding was beautiful, and I was so happy to be a part of it.
But back to this silk dress: Everyone loved it. It was just right for the occasion, but for me, this dress is also the perfect example of a summery style that transitions beautifully into fall. It reminds me of a more bohemian look—think California in the 1970s—that is polished and party-ready. Get some action on be9ja old mobile
When we think of the fall season, we think of reds, purples, oranges and other colors that we see falling from the trees on the ground. We tend to translate them into our wardrobes, but that doesn't mean we have to dress in plain blocks of those colors. The deep blues and the cheerful oranges in the print design are some of the most popular colors of the fall 2018 season. I also love the whimsical designs of the trees and leaves as well. https://acfa-cashflow.com/business-loans/minority-loans/
The length of the skirt hits at a very flattering point on my thighs, and the gorgeous ruffle on the hem makes the whole dress feel very flirty—I love twirling in it!
The fall season doesn't have to mean you wear only darker colors and heavy accessories. You can lighten things up a bit with a dress like this that gives you coverage for colder weather while also reminding you of the glorious summertime.

Having trouble sleeping? Light may be the issue....
You may want to get rid of the normal night lights in your kids rooms, and to light your hallways and exchange them for red lights! Recent studies have shown that even the smallest amount of light can be transmitted through your eyelids and cause disturbances in your sleep. I know that I've talked about sleep aids for sleep, but there is a lot of new research supporting the effects of light on the circadian rhythm (the bodies natural sleep/wake cycle).
How does this happen?
Well, there are light sensitive cells in our retinas and they send signals to the brain letting us know whether it is day or night and if we should be awake or sleeping. These cells can get pretty confused due to jet lag or off shift work. So, exposure of these cells to bright white light (from TV's, lamps, etc) at night can cause the cells to overwork and become confused, which can lead to sleeping disorders. As well, people who work inside with exposure to dull light all day, like from overhead lights and from computer screens, can cause confusion to the cells.
The signals from the cells in the retina push for a drive to be awake, no matter ow tired you are. After extensive sleep deprivation, that drive wears off and the sleep cycle begins because of a build up of adenosine in the brain, but no one likes to go through the day exhausted and barely getting through, so we drink caffeine which blocks the adenosine and keeps you awake.
So what can I do?
Decrease all light in the bedroom. If you sleep during the day, get black out shades and limit caffeine before bed. Keep TV's off, and if you do need a nightlight, you can change it to a low red bulb OR get a very, very dim white bulb that is not in your direct vision or area of your eyes. Also, try to decrease the amount of light stimulation right before bed; so don't read in bed with a bed side light, so that the retinal cells are not directly stimulated right before bed. Also, you may want to make your bedroom temperature a little lower, REM sleep is better attained when temperatures in the room are cool, so you can cozy up and get some good sleep!
Also, not to be overlooked but whether you have a sleep partner that is human, or not (i.e. dog, cat, etc), you need to work with any problems they might have. So, if there are any snoring problems, or sleeping disorders that they might have, it can affect you! Sleep studies are covered by most insurances, so it is worth going to your HCP for you or your partner if you have extensive sleep problems that are effecting either of you to get adequate sleep, because long term sleep deprivation can cause obesity, depression, and other issues. But, try to keep down bright lights, and give yourself time to get to sleep (i.e. turn in about 30 minutes before you "need" to get to sleep so that you decrease light stimulation and give your body time to wind down.)
Yours in Good Health

Live from the New York Stock Exchange on Friday, June 16, Publisher Nick Powills spoke with media disrupter Cheddar about what types of franchise brands are showing significant growth in 2017.
"Healthier for you brands continue to be among the highest searched on 1851," Powills said. "Better for you snacking, meal replacement, niche wellness like cryotherapy, salon, 24-7 gyms, massage are all sought after categories."
Cheddar is a live and on demand video news network focused on covering the most innovative products, technologies, and services transforming lives. The network covers news through the lens of the companies and executives driving these changes. A unique and live approach to news in technology, media, and entertainment, Cheddar is broadcast daily from the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, with exclusive CEO and founder interviews, and profiles of the technologies and companies transforming our lives.
During the segment, Powills also pointed out that education brands' growth has not waivered and has remained consistent.
"There are staple brand-types that continue to grow no matter what is happening in the economy," he said. "Education brands are one of those categories."
The conversation turned toward perception v. reality in brand growth.
"Brands like McDonald's get beat down for failing to meet comp sales expectations," he said. "However, comp sales compare year-over-year or period-over-period numbers – not simply profitability. It's not that franchisees are not making money, it's simply that they are not making the same amount of increase of more money."
Millennials were also a topic from the NYSE, as Powills said the consumer profile of the Millennial is more about friends first and convenience second.
"The younger customers are not leaving fast casual or QSR. There are a lot of brand options. Brand loyalty is not as important as friend loyalty and what restaurants are nearest to them. With more brands, there are more options. With more options, there are closer options. With closer options, brand loyalty is not as important to the customer," he said.

GOSH Primer Plus+ Hydration
I am the type of person that once I find a product that works well, I will continuously purchase and use that product. I am always cautious about the things I put on my face because it is very sensitive. I have been trialling the GOSH Primer Plus+ Hydration with mixed results. The Primer Plus + is the latest addition to the popular drugstore brand's collection and was released last month. With ingredients like snow algae (great for anti-ageing), the primer is said to help create a beautiful youthful complexion. I was a little weary when trying out the GOSH Primer Plus + and I am unfortunately sad to say I was right to be because I reacted to the product. I got a rash the next day specifically on my cheeks and forehead. The first time I used it I didn't wash off my makeup so I assumed it was due to that. I then used it again on another occasion and had the same reaction.
The first time I used it, I was impressed. Though slightly thick, it blended nicely on the skin and provided a nice silky base for foundation. The primer has a slight shine to it when applied that takes a while to vanish. Unfortunately this product just doesn't work well with my skin.
GOSH Primer Plus+ Hydration is available now from Superdrug for £13.99.

As if pimples are not annoying enough that they leave even more annoying pimple marks behind but don't worry we got you. I have experimented with many do it yourself scrubs and face masks to get rid of my pimple marks and have finally got the best of my experiments. With the help of the wizard of the internet Google and the wizard of my family – my grandmother and I have developed a three-step skin care routine that helps with pimple marks and works like magic. Don't believe me? Try it yourself. Here I will tell you how to remove pimple marks effectively. From pimple marks to blemishes we got a remedy for everything and everyone. The easy three-step home remedy for all your concerns from my kitchen to yours.
Image Source: Quora
1- Neem and Lemon Scrub

Azadirachta indica better known as neem in India is the most effective cure for pimple marks. Lemon is a particularly well-known antioxidant and cleans the body inside out and combined with neem it becomes even more effective.
– 5-6 drops lemon juice
– 10 neem leaves paste
– 1 spoon sugar
– 1 spoon honey
Mix all the ingredient together and softly scrub on your skin for two minutes and let it rest for ten minutes. After ten minutes remove wash your face with preferably cold water.

It's a very cheap ingredient which is easily found in any kitchen and has multiples uses. Baking soda is full of sodium bicarbonate crystals which help in exfoliating impurities and pimple marks from the face. With baking soda, we combine aloe vera which is full skin nourishing vitamins which help to moisturise skin.
– 1 tsp baking soda
– 1 spoon baking powder
– 1 spoon of aloe vera gel
– 5 tsp water
Mix all the ingredients together except baking soda and make a smooth paste. Now add baking soda to the paste and apply on the skin as a mask for twenty-five minutes. Wash your face with ice-cold water.

For the last step, I would strongly suggest using cold rose-water as a toner for the skin as it will lock the benefits of the scrub and the face pack. You can buy it from the market or easily prepare at home too.
– 30 Rose petals
– 1/2 litre Water
Take both the ingredients and boil them together for thirty minutes. Keep it in the fridge and apply diluted water with a cotton ball.
Follow this procedure a minimum of 3 times a week to see quick results.
Some tips to avoid pimples –
Coconut Oil
Over this 3 step pimple marks removal technique I would suggest applying some coconut oil on your skin before going to bed as it helps in avoiding pimples and help in reducing pimple marks too.
Ice Cubes
Also in summers rub ice cubs on your face.
Vitamin – E
Vitamin E is good for your health and skin. Take a good dose of vitamin – E tablet.
Sun Screen
Sun rays are harming your skin everyday. Use sunscreen before leaving the house on a summer day.
These were the tips you can use to remove pimple marks from your skin and to avoid pimples on your face. Now you know how to remove pimple marks from your skin. So, don't wait anymore and keep your skin healthy.

So yesterday I headed over to the Museum of Fine Arts with the original idea to make a video of me observing art and poetically breaking down each piece. Then I learned that its quite frowned upon/illegal to videotape myself talking loudly in a quiet museum. Whatever. Live and learn. I went with plan B, and took some pictures of some artwork and will reflect on them below. I only got to the Colonial Art exhibit, mostly because I got bored and didn't want to be there anymore.
I took an art history class last year and it was a disaster. I had to make a 10 minute presentation on an abstract art piece, and ran out of things to say within 45 seconds. Then again, finishing early is something I'm used to. All the art kids laughed at me, including the professor. But whatever, more people will read this blog than will read their resumes when they graduate. Boom. Roasted.
So anyway, here are some paintings that did me like a Catholic Priest and touched me:
This one really inspired me. It reminded me that if I keep working hard (writing stupid blogs) maybe 1 day I can get my twin bed in a museum. If that ever happens I demand that it be displayed as is. Don't clean the sheets, and everything that is currently under my bed must remain there. It would just lose its artistic value if it was altered. My twin bed is the definition of Avante Garde art. Just pushes the limits of art. Classic yet modern.
An 18th century 9/10. Definitely got around the block. The type of girl Paul Revere would only write letters to with a feather pen after 2am.
When you're trying to write a blog but blogs won't be invented until 250 years after you die.
When the Qdoba hits.
Me in 3 years.
Its not gay if its art.
Not sure if this was part of the exhibit but its still more comfortable than my actual bed.
We're all thinking it so I'll say it. George Washington's and his horse were both low-key thiccc.
Not completely sure what's going on in this painting but I look great.

In the interest of feeling good did you ever consider a daily mediation ritual? Or have you tried meditating and promptly concluded that you don't know how, you can't quiet your mind enough, you think about all kinds of things too much, you fidget too much, the list goes on of why we can't meditate.
Studies have shown that meditation can reduce stress and improve health. A simple technique practiced for as few as 10 minutes per day can help you control stress, decrease anxiety, improve cardiovascular health, and achieve a greater capacity for relaxation.
Again, in the interest of feeling better and assisting your overall health let's take another look at the practice of mediation, shall we? Go back to the adage, 'practice makes perfect' or in this case, practice makes a healthy habit! Wherever you are on the meditation scale – never tried it or tried it but didn't like it, or just can't find the time – give it a go, surrender 10-15 minutes of your day and experiment with different techniques and most importantly, go easy on yourself.
Meditation is about breathing and focusing on your breath so that your thoughts can take a break. Slow your whole mind/body down to get in touch with a beautiful rhythm that can take you on a remarkable journey – perhaps of healing, renewal or simply, peace.
I have meditated on and off for many, many years. I was introduced to transcendental meditation [ https://www.tm.org/ ] at the age of 11. I must confess that I feel better and life is just easier when I make it a daily practice (15 min for me). I have included a few links here to help you get started or reboot yourself in the healthful practice of meditation.

The Gleacher Center of the University of Chicago houses the Graduate School of Business and also competes with nearby hotels as a conference center and banquet facility. The downtown location of the site allowed limited access and traffic congestion. In short, the project was to deliver a state-of-the-art, multi-use educational facility that would be built in a congested location and be completed within an 18-month deadline to accommodate the start of classes.
The interior of the structure was the first priority so workers could get up and down without lifts. The design called for two-hour fire-rated USG® Cavity Shaft Wall Systems in stairwells, elevator shafts and mechanical walls. Instead of using two layers of standard gypsum panel on the finished sides of the shafts, the project manager recommended using just one layer per side of 3/4-inch Sheetrock® Brand Gypsum Panels, Ultracode® Core, to achieve the same two-hour-rated system, saving valuable time as well as reducing labor and material costs.
USG also supplied gypsum panels and finishing, ceilings and wall systems. Using USG for all the materials not only ensured the proper fire-ratings but kept other aspects of the project simple so that the deadlines were met on time and within budget.
