Dental Implant Restoration Santa Ana, CA
If you have dental implants and are having difficulty with them, call (714) 541-0837 and schedule an appointment with our Santa Ana, CA dental office.It is critical that you have your implant examined right away and that you do not try to self-diagnose the problem.This can lead to further irritation and dental challenges. During an examination we can let you know if you need a dental implant restoration and the best way to proceed with one.
How common are dental implant problems?
They are actually very rare.At Casa Dental of Santa Ana one of the reasons that we recommend dental implants is because of their high success rate.Depending on the dentist you visit, that can be as high as 99 percent.
What are common dental implant problems?
If there is a problem, your dental implant could become loose or the crown (tooth portion) could crack or fall off.
Why do dental implants become loose?
If your implant has become loose it may be because osseointegration never took place fully.This is the process where the titanium implant fuses with the actual jawbone.Bone is deposited around the implant over the course of several months and this makes an implant as secure as a natural root would be.If that process does not fully complete, your implant could become loose in the future.Additionally, the stability of your implant depends on your jawbone remaining dense and strong.If you develop gum disease or an infection that deteriorates your bone, the implant could become loose and fail.This makes it important to call our 92703 dental office if you notice any signs of gum disease which may include red, swollen and bleeding gums.Additionally, if you develop a toothache you need to visit our office for treatment right away.Doing so will prevent you from developing an infection that could negatively impact your jawbone.

What do I do if my dental implant has become loose?
Call us right away.The implant will not tighten on its own, nor will the problem correct itself.If you attempt to self-diagnose and treat, you could end up damaging your bone.
What does dental implant repair involve?
That depends on which portion of the implant is being repaired.If the actual tooth (dental crown) has become cracked or damaged, that can be replaced or repaired without needing to address the actual implant (titanium post).In this scenario, you should schedule an examination.If your tooth has fallen off, bring it with you.Otherwise, we can examine it and let you know if we can repair the crack or chip without actually removing the crown.At Casa Dental of Santa Ana, we view this a the best-case scenario since it is the fastest way to restore your implant and the least invasive.If the crown does need to be replaced, the dental lab will create a new one for us to carefully attach to the abutment that is secured to your implant.
If your actual implant has failed that is a whole new process that can take up to four steps. The first step is to carefully remove it which may require surgery.Then depending on the condition of your jawbone, a bone graft may then be necessary.If your implant became loose due to a lack of density, not correcting the problem will make it impossible to replace the implant.You will need to heal from this procedure before a new implant can be placed, essentially starting the procedure all over again.If you are faced with this scenario, we can discuss the various options that are available to you in further detail.
How do you treat a fractured dental implant?
If the tooth portion of your implant has fractured, we will examine you and let you know if we can restore it using bonding material or if we have to replace the crown.
Can you replace a loose dental implant?
Yes, if the actual implant becomes loose, it will typically need to be removed.The area will then need to be cleaned and a bone graft may be necessary.Once healed, a new implant can be placed.
What will the replacement process be like?
It is likely that you will need to undergo surgery to have your implant removed, the area cleaned and your jawbone grafted.This will be done under anesthesia so that you do not feel anything during the actual treatment.However, your recovery period may feel very similar to when the implant was first placed.That means that you will have some swelling, discomfort and soreness.To combat this, you should use an ice pack for fifteen minutes at a time, take ibuprofen and eat cool soft foods for several days.If you also had a bone graft you will need to be careful not to apply pressure to the area so your food restrictions may last slightly longer than they did before.During a follow-up examination you will be given the green light to return to your normal dietary habits. One thing to keep in mind is that if you do need a bone graft, it is likely to take six to nine months for the graft to be complete so that you can have a new implant placed.At that point, the process will be identical to when you had an implant placed for the first time.
If one implant becomes loose or fails will my others do the same?
Probably not.Dental implants have a success rate of 99 percent.It is incredibly rare for a dental implant to fail so if one does, your others should be fine.The only difference is that if you had an injury that caused an implant to fail, you should have all of your teeth examined to make sure that none of the rest are damaged.
Do you handle all types of dental implant restorations?
We can conduct an initial examination, identify what the problem is and how extensive it is.This will involve a physical examination along with x-rays so that we can determine the density of your jawbone.At that point, we will let you know if we can assist you or if you need to be referred to a Santa Ana specialist.At Casa Dental of Santa Ana our focus is on your complete oral health and ensuring that you have access to the procedures you need, whether with us or a specialist.To learn more, call our 92703 dental office at 714-541-0837.

Got an ornery orchid, a frustrated fern, a sad spath? Family-owned New Garden Landscaping and Nursery makes houseplant house calls, one of its many services for too-busy customers. They'll switch your outdoor pots from spring pansies to summer geraniums and then to mums in the fall, or stuff them with parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. Even when it's not Christmas, you'll feel like the elves have been there.
But at Christmastime, it's the shop itself that really shines. Walk through the door in December and expect to be stopped cold by the gorgeous scenes created by full-time buyer and designer Meda Woods. Trees are trimmed with motifs in mind: A woodland-themed tree is festooned with feathers, a seaside tree sparkles with sea-glass hues and glitter. This year there will be 12 tree themes, from wintertime sweet treats to garden gnomes.
Cultivating a sense of wonder has been at the heart of New Garden almost since it started in Jim Newlin's backyard. His garden on New Garden Road grew, as they do, and became a backyard nursery in the late 1960s. A decade later, Newlin's son James Morris launched New Garden Landscaping and Nursery, an offshoot of his father's small operation. Two years after that, James Morris moved his business to a commercial location in Summerfield. After three additional moves and various expansions — including services in Winston-Salem — the business remains a family operation, and if it involves something that grows, they can handle it.
Take the current craze for terrariums: The greenhouse offers a variety of wee plants that can fit inside that trendy glass "house" on your coffee table. Or, if you want, a designer will compose and plant a miniature garden for you. New Garden's designers also can plan your whole yard — your vegetable and perennial beds, your roses and shrubs. They can install a fountain and the wavy plants that inhabit it, and do all the chores you keep postponing: raking, pruning, mulching.
Still, retail is about 30 percent of New Garden's business, and to spark the shopping spirit, Woods and her elves plan an in-store display for every season — Valentine's Day, Father's Day, Easter, Fourth of July, Halloween, and, of course, Christmas. Along with live greenery for trimming, customers can buy fully decorated trees. Jerry Hilton, the general manager and a 26-year employee, both laughs and sighs when he says, yes, that does mean the customer has to take off every ornament, garland, light, and doodad-what-have-you, one by one, when January rolls around. Which might be, come to think of it, the only seasonal task New Garden Landscaping and Nursery doesn't offer: untrimming.

Raw Cow with Goat & Ewe Milk
Spain (DOP)
Aged: 2 mts
The cheese is a mixture of raw cows, goats and sheep's milk aged for between two and four months in natural formed limestone caves. Chilly and humid conditions in the caves facilitate the growth of bluish-green penicillium mould on this highly prized cheese. Unlike other blue cheeses injected with penicillium, Cabrales cures from the outside of the cheese to the inward.
Cabrales has a strong flavor, sometimes quite acidic, which can be very complex when made with mixed milks. Like Gorgonzola and Roquefort, it is a famous blue cheese whose name is protected by European law.

It seems we know we have achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.

One of the timeless songs that make a perfect cover is George Harrison's Within You Without You. A perfect taste of the late 1960s – heavily influenced by classical music from India it still is deeply rooted in the contemporary trends in rock. Harrison actually was a master of incorporating Hindu musical themes into the pieces he wrote for the Beatles. And this is definitely one of his master tracks. Funny, being the least "starish" of the Beatles and the least wanted (girls usually scream either for John, Paul or Ringo), he was probably the most qualified and perfectionist of them all, not only as a musician but also as a composer.
Within You Without You was covered by various artists of different musical genres. From Patti Smith to Thievery Corporation, in this song anyone could find something close to their heart. I decided to pick four of them just for some comparison of how different it may sound.
Unfortunately, I am not including a cover by Adrian Belew – the cover itself is amazing and Belew is one of my favorite musicians of all time. However, as far as I know he never released this song on any of his albums. And the youtube videos of Belew performing Within You Without You are of really poor quality.
First of all, the original. Completely perfect. Harrison performed it together with musicians from India. It is, actually, his solo track. Except him none of the Beatles are featured on this track. It was issued in 1967 on the famous the Beatles' album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.
Patti Smith. A legend in itself. This is where Great Britain/India meet the American spirit. She's touching as ever.
Sonic Youth, the legend of the late 1980s and 1990s. Of course, as a noise band they do perform it in a noise style. What makes an amazing experience is that they go very much in the direction of the Velvet Underground. Actually, that was my first thought. If Velvet would have ever covered Within You Without You, this is how they would sound.
Easy Star's All-Stars cover featuring Matisyahu. The dub version which was included in the album Easy Star's Lonely Hearts Dub Band. It could actually be interesting for both, fans of the Beatles and dub fans since the whole album is a dub reggae tribute to Sgt. Pepper's.
And finally the band that I've never been a fan of, however, gotta admit they're professional. Oasis – who perform the song in a manner very close to the original.

Ecommerce platform Bigcommerce recently poached Tim Schulz, the now-former head of business development and partnerships at Google. "It was very hard to leave Google," Tim Schulz told Business Insider. "I feel like I'm a Googler for life, but there was a compelling opportunity with Bigcommerce."
Ecommerce is one of the fastest-growing markets, Schulz said, and Bigcommerce wants to be the leader in the space.
With Bigcommerce, merchants don't have to pay an arm and a leg to build a website to sell products. It's also easy to get up-and-running in just 30 minutes.
"Every time we step on the accelerator, the business accelerates," West Stringfellow, Bigcommerce's chief product officer, told Business Insider. "There are so many business deals on the plate that we just don't have the capacity for."
That's why Bigcommerce spent several months recruiting Schulz. While at Google, Schulz worked on Google Wallet, Google Shopping Express, and other products centered on ecommerce.
Before Google, Schulz worked at ecommerce startup Magento. In fact, Schulz was Magento's first-ever product manager and helped shape the company into a prime acquisition target. Back in 2011, eBay acquired Magento for $180 million.
As senior vice president of product at Bigcommerce, Schulz will be tasked with further growing the business.
"Our target is Amazon," Stringfellow said.
As it becomes easier than ever to get products from Amazon, Stringfellow said people will begin to want more unique products — not just the ones you can get same-day or next-day via Amazon.
There are, of course, other options for merchants to sell custom and unique products, like Etsy and Hatch.
"Those marketplaces, especially Amazon, typically disintermediate the customer from the merchant in addition to charging fees," Schulz said.
Schulz said Etsy merchants will always be building a business on a platform that always takes a cut. Bigcommerce, on the other hand, gives retailers a better shot at building and sustaining a scalable business because merchants can essentially control their entire brand and customer experiences.
To date, Bigcommerce has raised $75 million from investors including General Catalyst Partners, Floodgate, and Revolution LLC, and the company has attracted more than 54,000 merchants to its platform. Roughly 70% of Bigcommerce's merchants are brick-and-mortar retailers.

KO One is a class designed especially for the delinquents and rejects that other high schools would not accept. Even so, everyone in the class is loyal to the leader, Wang Da Dong, who is KO.3, and would die for friends. Another KO. 3, Wang Ya Se, also called Ya Se Wang and KO.4, Ding Xiao Yu soon joins the class and out of some fortuitous events, their lives become tied together and they become best buddies. Another student, Lei Ke Se, who had been gone for a whole semester, rejoins the class. Although Lei Ke Se seems like a weak kid with only good intentions, Ya Se suspects Lei Ke Se is KO.2 because legends say that KO.1 and KO.2 are capable of concealing their true identities.
At the same time, incidents start to occur and the culprit always leads to Ya Se. But Ya Se is being framed by Lei Ke Se, who is actually the real culprit. Lei Ke Si makes Ya Se looks bad so that Da Dong won't believe him when he says that Lei Ke Se is KO.2. Soon, An Qi, who is Da Dong and Lei Ke Se's childhood crush, appears. This forces Lei Ke Se to reveal his true identity and fight with Da Dong (for An Qi). After Lei Ke Se leaves KO One, Xiao Yu starts to crush on An Qi. Both Da Dong and Xiao Yu fight over An Qi, but Da Dong doesn't realize his crush on the teacher of KO One, Tian Xin until An Qi tells him. Soon, An Qi returns to America and strange things started to happen. Two more new girl-students join the class, and one of them has a crush on Ya Se. Although he is cold and refuses to accept her due to her behavior as a gorilla, he eventually changes and falls in love with her. At the end, Lei Ke Si returns to tell the gang how to defeat their enemy Hei Long. In the final battle, Da Dong, Ya Se, Xiao Yu and Lei Ke Si combine their powers and finally defeat the evil roaming around them, but everyone in the gang, except KO.7, lose their powers in a big explosion.

You might have heard of Dark Social, the latest social media buzzword, and thought that it was something strange, mysterious, forbidden, or even illegal. But it's actually a simple concept. It basically refers to the sharing of content through mediums that can't be tracked by web analytics platforms. This includes sending links through messaging apps, native mobile apps, and email . You are part of dark social every time you send videos, articles, or any type of content via these channels instead of sharing or retweeting them.
And it's a growing trend—a report last year from RadiumOne showed that within a year-and-a-half, "Dark Social shares as a percent of on-site shares jumped from 69% to 84% globally," and this can be attributed to the increased use of messaging apps, such as WeChat, Whatsapp, and Facebook Messenger, which is the largest instant messaging service in the Philippines.
Why It's Important
There are tons of consumer insight that can be obtained if marketers knew the activity in Dark Social. Sharing privately is a hugely personal act. The content that people send on their email and messaging apps—cat videos, beauty blogs, and event details—is what's relevant to them and their recipients, unlike public posts that appeal to everyone.
The Problem with Dark Social
Unfortunately, Dark Social is a huge blind spot in terms of tracking website traffic. You can't really tell the effectiveness of your content or which channel proved effective at reaching your market. Dark Social makes strategizing content and understanding customers trickier for brands.
What You Can Do
Unfortunately, there's no clear-cut solution out there. However, there are some ways that may help you address this type of traffic:
Encourage Sharing
Make your share buttons larger or more visible, or give readers an incentive to share by holding contests or promos. In other words, try to incentivize trackable sharing.
Use URL Shorteners
Because URL shorteners connect to another service to read the actual web address, it provides a method of tracking clickthroughs, even if it originated in Dark Social.
Web Tools
There are web tools that help you track the surface of Dark Social like GetSocial.io and Po.st. However, be prepared to make tweaks in these analytics tools.
Dark Social covers a huge portion of content sharing. And although it can't be fully known, it shouldn't stop you from creating unique, engaging, and most importantly—share-worthy content.

Chvrches hit the stage last week for our Artist To Watch Live event in New York City, where they rocked out with a cadre of songs from their debut LP, The Bones Of What You Believe.
The Scottish electro-pop band has managed to build up a solid wall of buzz this past year — all on the power of their excellent Recover EP, which dropped in March. Replete with danceable yet darkly driving jams — cut through with Lauren Mayberry's bell-toned voice — the EP had us slathering for full-length effort, The Bones of What You Believe, which dropped this week (September 24).
In an interview with MTV, Chvrches were humble about their burgeoning fame. "I don't think we'd consider ourselves famous at this point," Martin Doherty told us. "We're just getting on with what we're doing. I think we've got a bit to go before we can say that."
But now that their '80-tinged debut is out of the bag, we're sure that that is all primed to change.
"A lot of our earliest, most impressionable moments with music were when we were growing up watching movies and the songs from the soundtracks, but also the score," Iain Cook said, speaking about what influences the band's sound. "A lot of sci-fi and horror scores from the '80s where they wouldn't use orchestras and they would use electronic instruments, I guess for budgetary reasons or whatever, tend to be particularly memorable, because they can be really gnarly and they work really well with the gore."
If you have yet to hear any of the band's "gnarly" debut effort, you're in luck. We have footage of the trio performing five of their tracks live at The Studio at Webster Hall, including breakout singles "Recover" and "The Mother We Share." Check them out right about here.
The Bones of What You Believe is out now on Glassnote.

Lazy French Toast
Why "Lazy"? It's usually how I feel the next day after a party the night before. While grabbing milk for my coffee and wondering what to eat and feed this hangover, I found leftover baguette from last night's wine extravaganza. There was about a loaf and a half left (I used it to accompany my spinach dip last night). You can also use french bread.
Ingredients: 1 to 2 loaves baguette. 3 eggs. 1/3 cup milk. 2 pinches salt. 1 stick melted butter. 1 tsp. vanilla. 2 tbsp. cinnamon (Quantity on the following depends on how much you want) – Craisins or raisins, sliced almonds and maple syrup.
Prep: I used a 9X13 pan. Melted the butter and spread it on the bottom and sides of the pan, then chilled the pan in the refrigerator while I sliced the bread 1/2 inch thick and set that aside. In a bowl, beat the eggs then add the milk, salt, vanilla and 1 tbsp. cinnamon. Get the pan out of the refrigerator and assemble. In a honeycomb pattern (see picture) place the sliced bread in the pan. Pour the egg mix evenly over the bread. Sprinkle craisins (or raisins) and sliced almonds in desired amount. Sprinkle 1 tbsp. cinnamon over everything.
Cook: Set oven to 400 degrees, pre-heat. Place pan in the center (Center of the rack, set in the middle). Cooking time 20 to 25 minutes.
Serve: As soon as you take the pan out of the oven, drizzle maple syrup in desired amount then serve. My family is casual when it comes to eating so I just put the pan on the table for everyone to serve themselves. I also leave out the cinnamon and maple syrup – the husband usually likes to add more of that stuff.
Roasted Chicken with Chili and Corn bread
Sometimes you want to get creative but have no time to do everything from scratch. I have several "semi home-made" methods with store-bought roasted chicken. Here's what I did with it today.
My daughter and I would play "Top Chef" at home. She would pull ingredients from the refrigerator and the pantry, then I have 30 minutes to come up with a meal… not just a dish, but a whole meal.
Unlike Top Chef, my ingredients are pretty normal. I don't normally have eel, black licorice or exotic mushrooms around the kitchen. Today, she pulled these ingredients, along with some left overs from the roasted chicken we had the other day.
For those who don't know my food blogging style, I am not as detailed as a real food blogger. I just slap things together most of the time but feel free to ask me anything if you need more detail. The ingredients are, corn bread mix, 2 cans of chili, 2 tbsp steak sauce, 4 tbsp bbq sauce, Baja mix veggies and roasted chicken (I normally get the herb flavored roast, but you can choose any type that will go with the sides). Let's get started!
- Cook the corn bread following the package instructions, but add 1 cup of the Baja mix veggies for every 7 oz bag of corn bread mix.
- Follow heating instructions of chili, adding the steak sauce and bbq sauce – depending on how you like your chili, adjust the amounts of steak sauce and bbq sauce you add.
- Heat up your roasted chicken in the oven, microwave or pan.
- Plate it up.
My favorite was how the corn bread turned out. That was a pleasant surprise and that I was done plating under 30 minutes! Have fun with it if you try this! Happy cooking.
For this recipe,
Chunky & Moist Corn Bread
No Low fat/sugar free substitutions 2 sticks butter 1 cup white sugar 1 can evaporated milk 4 eggs 16 OZ sour cream (1 tub) 1 package each – Marie Calender's corn bread mix and Krusteaz corn bread mix 2 cans whole kernel corn drained 2 cans cream style corn. See below for dip ingredients.
To prepare: Soften butter, mix sugar in until syrup like then add everything else one at a time in the order listed above – while hand mixing. Mix until somewhat like a brownie mix – a little softer than brownie mix. Pour into two 9X13 greased pan. Pre-heat oven at 325 – cook for 50-60 minutes or until set and lightly browned.
For corn bread dip: mix some whipped salted butter and add honey until it is sweet & buttery enough for you.
For chili dipping corn bread: Reduce the above ingredients to 1 can whole kernel corn & 1 can cream style corn. But you can keep it at 2 cans each if you want your cornbread packed and filling. This recipe is very forgiving… just have fun with it. To the batter, add 1/2 cup red pimento, 1/2 cup green chili (Ortega mild), 1/2 cup chopped yellow cheddar (to the size of half a raisin). mix all by hand. Cooking time may be 55-65 minutes. Right before serving, sprinkle some finely grated cheddar on top, put back in oven until cheese is slightly browned & melted.

The 8×10 has been a cornerstone for Baltimore music for over thirty years. The venue has been through three different names and different owners, but the 8×10 is here to stay. It needs to stay .
The 8×10, located in bustling Federal Hill, Md., hosts live music six to seven nights a week. The 8×10 brings in an eclectic mix of national and regional acts, including Galactic, The Bridge, Tea Leaf Green and much more.
Brian Shupe and Abigail Janssens have owned the 8×10 for almost five years. Shupe and Janssens are able to use their knowledge of music and their experience in the music industry to keep their venue going, and to bring people into their club night after night. Shupe lives for the music and has been living the dream ever since he and his wife bought the venue.
"Owning the 8×10 is the most challenging thing I have ever done, but I enjoy it immensely and I love waking up every day to go to work and dealing with new bands," Shupe said. "It catches up to you after awhile, but when you come down and see the crowd pumping and the lights flashing and the music happening, it's just a reminder of what you're in it for. Those are the moments that carry you through."
The 8×10 is not the biggest club in Baltimore, but its intimacy and friendly vibes from the employees make up for it, and that shows day in and day out. The 8×10 also has the best sounding room in Baltimore, and when people come to their club, it is for the music, and Shupe likes it that way.
"I would like to think that the 8×10 has an extremely attentive and knowledgeable audience," Shupe said. "When people come to the 8×10, they're not coming here to get drunk or because it's the close walk from their dorm room. They're coming here for the music. 99 percent of the people that come here aren't talking and socializing, but they are dancing to the music."
The 8×10 brings in many national acts, but they also play a major role in helping the local music scene. Many local bands and musicians have gotten their start from playing at the 8×10.
The 8×10 offers open mic nights once a week and they also sponsor a unique program, "5 Bands for 5 Bucks" every Tuesday night. Depending on how the bands do, Shupe and Janssens work to get the bands better shows on better nights, and the bands work their way up the ladder so hopefully in the future, they can be headlining their club.
The 8×10 plays an important role in Baltimore by bringing in acts that people want to see, and by developing young local bands by giving them a stage to play on. The 8×10 is an essential part of the Baltimore music scene, and the impacts the venue has had on music are immense.

Impulse was created among friends, around the kitchen counter of José Ramos, president of Impulse Global. It was 2009 and people were still dying of AIDS. Impulse began as a personal project that quickly became a global social movement.
Impulse Group Los Angeles is the founding chapter of this international group of volunteers and friends dedicated to promoting healthier sexual lifestyles among gay men. With support from the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, we work to to create campaigns, events, and online content to reach a all generations of gay men who live in a modern and rapidly evolving world..
Los Angeles is a city with a rich diversity of culture and racial and ethnic backgrounds. Around 31,000 cases have been diagnosed since the beginning of the epidemic in 1981. Thirty one years after, new data show, not only HIV has steadily increasing but that cases of chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis in California have reached an all-time high.
Men account for nearly 90% of new HIV/AIDS cases every year, and about 2,500 live in the West Holywood area.
We must end prejudices that prevent more people from being tested for HIV and directly discriminating against people living with HIV


text: I had a lovely maternity session recently with Candace and Ben. I love doing pregnancy photos as you are at this point in life where you are full of anticipation and excitement awaiting the arrival of your baby! Candace and Ben are so adorable together! I love how this session turned out at Monument Valley Park. It was a beautiful place for their maternity photos. We even got photo bombed by a blue herring! lol

That morning the Secretary had received a letter of thanks with a cheque – the young actor had recovered and found work"
Giles Watling MP – Vice Chair
"The Royal Theatrical Fund is a godsend to all those actors, of whom there are too many, whose lives are the antithesis of the glamour and success that the profession is often associated with.

Natascha McElhone – Director
"I feel it is a privilege to be a Director of The Royal Theatrical Fund and see at close hand what a difference it can make to those in our profession who very often have nowhere else to turn through illness, or an accident at work or having to care for a partner or child. It really can be a lifeline."
Samantha Spiro – Director
"I became a Director of the RTF so I could be involved, first hand, in the help and support this charity is giving to its fellow professionals. I feel that above everything else we are there when people may be at their lowest and not for only immediate help, but as a constant support to those who can perhaps no longer look after themselves financially or through one form of infirmity or another need our help."
Peter Polycarpou – Director
"For many years I have supported the work of this charity and I am honoured now to be a Vice President of the Fund"
Bill Nighy
We provide help and support for all who have worked or work in the theatrical profession.

The Fund also assists with benefits and debt advice.
The Directors of the Fund are very aware that many people do not find it easy to ask for help. Rest assured that all requests for assistance are dealt with sympathetically and in complete confidence. In addition, one of our main priorities is to help people to stay independent and in their own homes wherever possible.

Black Mambas #8 – 3 out of the Big 5!
It's been an epic few days living the life of a Black Mamba.
This night patrol was beyond exciting! I wasn't sure what to expect and what I would see. It didn't disappoint. There were two black mambas, Leytah and Belinda, Charlie and myself. Our vehicle, known as "Dave" had two seats in the cab and two elevated seats on the back. Leytah and I sat on the back, in the open air.
Within the first five minutes, we saw four young male lions. They looked mischievous and stared intensely at Leytah and I. One was laid down by the passenger's side, the other two in the bushes and the fourth one walked slowly round the back of the vehicle. Charlie's vocal cues were similar to how I would speak to my Jack Russell. "I'm watching you…don't even think about it..". Well if he was thinking about dinner, I didn't want to stick around to find out! A few photos later and we were off. Lions strategically work together, so being surrounded didn't put me at ease.
The air felt fresh on my face, the bush felt peaceful but very much alive.
I filmed Leytah as the spotlight darted over her face, revealing her bright red lipstick. These ladies may have an element of glamour but boy, they mean business.
Our second sighting was spectacular. A White Rhino. He is known for his risky antics. He strolled pass the front of the vehicle, cool, calm and collected. It was made all the more dramatic by the emotion Leytah displayed, barely able to contain her excitement and wonderment. This really reinforced the geneuine passion she has for the work she does. As the tank like form was partially revealed by the spotlight, he varnished almost immediately after entering the dense bush. We waited there for over an hour on our 'OP', also know as Observational Post. We didn't see him again.
As I sat in the stationary vehicle, I admired the moonlight and the beauty of the scene. It felt magical, a bit mythical and definitely surreal being out on night patrol with the Black Mambas. I pinched myself. Having spent the best part of 1.5 years advocating their work and raising money for them, it was the best reward to be out in the wilderness with them and observing their work.
Our next treat came with the sound of elephants breaking branches close by. We couldn't see them and we couldn't hear them moving, just twigs and sticks breaking on the ground. It is incredible how quietly such giants move and also how quickly they move. One minute we would here a stick break behind us and the next sound a few hundred feet away.
Leytah suggested we moved to the watering hole as she believed they were heading that way. She was right. When we arrived, it was one of the most spectacular sights. There were close to 30 elephants bathing near or in the water. The moonlight partially revealed them. It was a breath taking sight and one I will never forget. As I looked up from my camera, it was astonishing to see that all the elephants had moved away and varnished like ghosts.
It intrigues me how they communicate with one another. Does the matriarch signal to the others that it's time to leave? What does that signal look or sound like? There is so much we don't know about this wonderful and intelligent creatures.
As we drove back along the road, we spotted two big elephants blocking our path. We used the spotlight to try and move them off the road but one of them decided he was more than happy to stay put. We waited a further 20 minutes, inching slowly forward in the vehicle. In the end, we heard "Go Go Go" coming from the cab as we raced past the beast at high speed. I could have given him a high five on the way pass it was that close. The elephant was just as startled as I was but luckily he didn't chase after us! Phew!
As the night chilled, so did we. Leytah had a blanket and luckily I had my down jacket and a beanie. We arrived back at the picket at 11.30pm and settled down for the night with a cup of tea! Perfect choice!
Leytah casually informed me there was a rat in the room. As somebody that is scared witless of rats, this was not the most relaxing piece of information before I went to sleep. Fortunately I was out as soon as my head hit the pillow. The following morning I saw an apple in my back has been delicately nibbled. We drew the conclusion it was mice in the room, not rats!
I felt so privileged to see three of the big five in one night. The mambas told me I must have brought good luck with me as this was not the norm.

Fashion Draft NYC: Recruiting Fashion's Future Leaders
By Meghana Gandhi, Senior Project Manager, Fashion/Retail Team
Twenty-five fantastic college seniors from 21 schools across the country had a uniquely unconventional and exciting Presidents' Day weekend, which included meeting fashion industry leaders and interviewing for full-time jobs. (See more photos on NYCEDC's Tumblr!)
NYCEDC partnered with Parsons The New School for Design for Fashion Draft NYC, a first-of-its-kind talent recruitment program. Over 350 students applied for the opportunity to travel to NYC, all expenses paid, to interview for management-track positions at NYC-based fashion-companies.
The students arrived in NYC on Thursday and attended a welcome dinner that evening. On Friday morning, NYCEDC President Seth Pinsky and Parsons' Executive Dean Joel Towers officially kicked off the program at Macy*s, where the students heard a keynote address from Chairman, President and CEO Terry Lundgren. Mr. Lundgren shared his life story with the students and also highlighted the ways in which he and his company continue to innovate. The students' second stop was at the LF USA offices, where Paul Rosengard, President of LF USA's Men's Apparel Group, provided them with some valuable advice as they prepared to begin their careers in the fashion industry. After lunch at Parsons, the students toured the stunning Meatpacking District headquarters of designer Diane von Furstenberg.
On Friday evening, the students had a chance to meet representatives from some of the twelve participating companies: alice + olivia, ANN Inc., Armani Exchange, Bloomingdale's, Club Monaco, Gilt, LF USA, Macy*s, Moda Operandi, Polo Ralph Lauren, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Theory. The students spent the day on Saturday interviewing with these companies.
We look forward to seeing many of these students back in NYC this summer, when they'll hopefully begin work at one of these companies!
Fashion Draft NYC builds upon the success achieved by NYCEDC and Parsons during Fashion Campus NYC, a weekend intensive this past summer during which about 200 interns representing over 90 universities and 150 companies learned about careers on the business side of the industry. Fashion Draft NYC and Fashion Campus NYC are two of six initiatives resulting from Mayor Bloomberg's Fashion.NYC.2020, an ongoing examination of the challenges facing the fashion industry to help the City build on its competitive advantages to maintain its status as a global fashion capital.

Elizabeth Hurley gives Shane Warne a metrosexual makeover after he loses 22lbs?
Has Liz Hurley given Shane Warne a metrosexual makeover Cricketer shows off his toned figure after losing 22 pounds
12:35 AM on 20th May 2011
Elizabeth Hurley has maintained her stunning figure with a wide array of controversial diets over the years.
But after new boyfriend Shane Warne revealed he"s lost 22 pounds over the past few months, fans are wondering if his model girlfriend has influenced his diet.
The Australian cricketer showed off his slimmed down physique in a tight T-shirt today as he launched his clothing line in Mumbai, India.
The couple who models together… Shane Warne and girlfriend Elizabeth Hurley models T-shirts from his Spinner fashion range in Mumbai
What a difference: Warne is looking toned and sculpted compared to his heavier frame last year (right)
Standing next to svelte Hurley, 45, in tops from his Spinners range, there was no denying Warne looked better than he has done in years.
Although Warne"s manager insisted his new slimline look was down to a health kick of his own decision, many have noticed the sportsman"s more coiffed appearance in recent months.
His manager James Erskine laughed off speculation that diet-conscious Hurley had influenced her boyfriend, insisting the 42-year-old was simply getting fitter so he could match his twentysomething teammates in the Rajasthan Royals.
Erskine said: "He has been on a real fitness campaign since about eight weeks before he went to India.
Keeping up with young ones: Warne"s manager said he has lost weight so he was able to compete with his twentysomething teammates
"When you are 42 and you"re competing against a team of young 20-year-olds, you have to be fit."
"His weight normally fluctuates but he is in unbelievable form at the moment. I was with him a couple of weeks ago and he said he was down to 82kg (12st 9lbs)."
Apparently Warne shifted the pounds after cutting down fatty food and alcohol in his diet, drinking more water andshakes and his new routine of daily runs and workouts.
Hurley upset dieticians last year when she admitted she skipped breakfast, Tweeting: "Mugs of hot water first thing, maybe an espresso and a few oat cakes mid morning."
Mr Metrosexual: Warne and Hurley attended a party at Shilpa Shetty"s house on Wednesday night
She also was said to have followed a cabbage soup diet to lose her baby weight following the birth of son Damien in 2001.
With his poker playing and past reputation for womanising, Warne has always been known as a "man"s man".
But the Rajasthan Royals captain revealed on Twitter last month, he was started to spend more time on his appearance and had no qualms about admitting to using Estee Lauder moisturiser – the beauty firm which Hurley models for.
He Tweeted: "Questions re facelift / Botox etc – are absolute rubbish – I am 86kg – lost7kg and are close to being the fittest I have ever been.
"I am alsoeating very healthily and am flattered that people think I lookyounger – I have worked hard over the last 5 months on fitness and lifestyle – it"s far from a quick fix – fitness and being healthy isnow a daily habit – I feel great and never been happier in my life.
Trim and toned: Warne arriving for a cricket meeting in Mumbai on Tuesday
"As I said seems hardwork paid off – thanks for all the compliments re looking younger – will keep up my daily routine – big game v KKR tmrw.
"Yes had teeth whitened (18 months ago) – new Estee lauder moisturiser for my skin have made a big difference too – Yes I"m still a man hahaha."
Warne"s launch came after he and Hurley were the guests of honour at a party thrown by Rajasthan Royals owner Shilpa Shetty and her husband Raj Kundra.
Shetty has been subjected to rumours she is pregnant with her first child in recent weeks so she took to Twitter to decry them.
She wrote today: "Sick and tired of all the congratulatory msgs and calls,so for the last time "I AM NOT PREGNANT".all this is so annoying..grrrrrrrrr."
Meanwhile, Hurley has also been working on her Elizabeth Hurley Beach collection.
She Tweeted today: ":In Bombay, finishing work on sampling 2012 kaftans for my collection. All looking gorgeous. Best fabrics in India & best embroidery."
Hurley and Warne have been dating on and since at least December, when she was forced to go public about her split from estranged husband Arun Nayar after she was photographed kissing the cricketer.
The Estee Lauder spokesmodel insisted she and Nayar, 46, had separated months earlier, but her husband was said to be upset by the photos.
Hurley and Warne were first linked last July after the model was photographed chatting to the Australian at the Glorious Goodwood Festival.

Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya?
"You need lucky breaks to be successful" claims business guru Richard Branson. But what about plain old hard work and thinking ahead?
Our latest research shows 72% of SMEs do not believe in luck in business. The study of more than 1,000 small business owners across the UK revealed that the majority believe they are in control of their firm's destiny.
When it comes to business, is smart thinking more important than luck?
Overall, we found that the UK's small business landscape enjoyed a positive year, with 74% of companies reporting good business performance and more than three quarters of these (77%) making a profit.
However, just one in four (28%) small business owners believe luck has a bearing on their success. Instead, as the UK economy continues to strengthen, the need to plan effectively – both for sustainable growth and unforeseen contingencies – should be at the forefront of small business owners' minds.
Working smart
"I believe that there is a certain amount of luck involved in achieving success, however what many fail to realise is that you can largely create your own luck by putting yourself in the right place at the right time. Hard work forms a part of this, but it's about more than that; it's about working smart."
"By actively going out and meeting influential people in your industry, attending all the key events, and stepping outside of the day-to-day operating activity to work "on your business" rather than "in your business" you will create opportunities. It's then up to you whether you reach out and grab them when they inevitably present themselves" comments Matt Gubba from BizBritain – an organisation providing support and resources for young entrepreneurs in the UK who haven't been to university.
Opportunity is key, but you have to be ready to take advantage of it. Whilst chance may only take you so far, having a good understanding of your firms' finances and operations you can act decisively with confidence and turn a situation into a lucky one.
"Luck plays a part in business success, but in order to be lucky you have to be there in the first place. Sure, it can have a real role to play but it isn't everything. I was brought up to be independent and confident, and that helped me to succeed as it will many others" explains Doug Richard, founder of the School for Creative Startups.
"I'm not superstitious but I think most people know luck plays a part in success, the former BBC Dragon continues, even if they don't talk about it. Of course, nothing is more important than planning, strategy and having a great idea, but I would say most successful businesses realise they've had some fortunate breaks."
Insight and control
Whether they believe in luck or not, good customer service (80%), a solid business plan (55%) and sound knowledge of the business' finances and suppliers (54%) were cited as the most influential contributors to success, suggesting the majority of entrepreneurs prefer to rely on insight and control over chance.
"As a teenager I used to think my day would go to plan if I wore a lucky coloured pair of knickers! It goes without saying that psychedelic yellow underwear does not always do the trick, I now know you have to make your own luck!" says Sarah Arrow from business women and female entrepreneur blogging community Birds On The Blog.
And apparently Sarah's not the only one to lose faith in her trusty lucky charm since only 2% of small businesses have a mascot! Funnily enough, SMEs which had performed poorly cited bad luck as one of the top three contributing factors. Conversely, SMEs that performed well did not list good luck as one of the top five reasons why.
"With growth comes opportunity, but you have to be ready to take advantage of it" commented Claire Carter, Head of Sage One.
"Luck will only take you so far. But if you have a good understanding of your firms' finances and operations you can act decisively with confidence and turn a situation into a lucky one."

Just yesterday I received a Little League notice in my inbox. Registration is happening now, opening day has been scheduled, and I've already calendared our mandatory "field clean up day." Mr. Red is all signed up to coach our oldest son, and my body feels warmer just thinking about baseball.
Every year since my childhood, the beginning of baseball season was such a hopeful time. The world was coming out of its dark slumber. Birds were in the air, tulips were blooming, and the Phillies were getting ready for opening day. For many years the Phillies were just plain awful, but Opening Day was always filled with joy and hope. "This year things could be different, and even if they aren't, it's spring."
Now, as a mother, I have this same joyful anticipation of little league season (and spring soccer!). The days will be longer, the air warmer, and those playgrounds are waiting!
And yet, I realize that youth sports with a larger family can present it's own set of challenges. Late evenings on the ball field and cranky toddlers don't mix. Dinners at the snack stand leave everyone feeling yucky. And then there is the unpredictable rain.
So here is our guide for surviving and thriving in youth sports.
1) Don't start too soon. I know 4 year olds in t-ball uniforms are super cute, but resist the temptation. Youth sports are a commitment for the whole family, and kids have many years to participate. Rec. programs are beginning at younger and younger ages, which can be hard for larger families. For the extreme extrovert this can be a nice way to get some cute pictures and meet members of your community, BUT an early start often leads to burnout for Mom and Dad (and for more intense sports, burnout for the kids). Most youth sports should not begin until age 5 or 6, and with baseball, I'd consider waiting until age 6 or 7. Work with your budding athlete in the backyard for a season or two first, it will make everyone a whole lot happier if you delay that first game just an extra year.
2) Get involved! Have Dad help coach or volunteer yourself! Sign up to bring a snack. Invite the team over for a party. Do something to invest in the team and the community. You will feel a lot happier if you help to create a nice environment for your child. We had Gianna's soccer team over for a bonfire, and it was really a great time.
3) Remember that youth sports are about character. Even skill development is about virtues such as perseverance and a willingness to take correction. Notice the virtues, not just the end result. If you tend to be competitive, pray for the grace to see sports as a lifelong learning experience. Playing a sport and learning to push your body are important parts of a child's education.
4) Always eat before you leave. Most youth sports are after work/school, and the family should eat before arriving. Buying unhealthy snacks and eating junk at the field might be ok for one night, but it sets kids up for bad behavior, AND makes them think that baseball or soccer is about eating, not playing. Try to make the time at the ball field about the sport, and the playground (for the spectator siblings). If you have to rearrange your afternoons to eat an early dinner, do it.
6) Have a plan for rain and cancelled practices. If you eat early, a cancelled practice or game should be seen as a night off. Take the kids somewhere fun if you are all dressed and ready to leave or stay home and have a family game or movie night.
7) Ask for help with rides. Offer to carpool and don't feel badly about asking for help, especially when the schedule has been altered because of weather. If a make-up game falls on a day of the week that isn't set up for sports, offer to drop the child off and have the coach give that child a ride home. Or, if even that is too difficult, skip that one night because it was not on the original schedule. You should not feel stressed about missing a sporting event for a 6 year old child!
8) Teach your child to be responsible for his or her own equipment. Make sure there is a system for equipment and put the child in charge of it. Our kids pack their own bags and carry a checklist to make sure no items are forgotten. We take time at the beginning of each season to get a good system for all equipment. If possible, purchase extra socks if there are games more than one day per week.
9) Resist the temptation for extra camps and more competitive programs unless your child is really ready. Burnout is a huge problem these days. The trend seems to be specialization at earlier and earlier ages. Resist it. Don't let your child quit other things to focus on baseball at the age of 7. There will come a time for specialization, travel programs and extra camps, but it isn't at the age of 6 or 7. All these things are expensive and can lead to burn out if your child is too young. Don't commit too soon. Remember, most kids get better in their own backyard, and there is nothing wrong with being middle of the pack because you aren't ready to focus on one sport.
10) Savor the priceless moments. Going to little league games may seem like a burden now, but imagine yourself 10 years from now, when your children are driving themselves to countless activities. You'll long for these simple times where you could sit at a ball field on a beautiful spring day and watch your son in his little league uniform have fun playing ball with his friends. Every once in a while, just pause and savor the moment. This time won't last forever, but the memories will.
And if you are still feeling burned out by the last few weeks of the season, don't worry! Most parents are ready to wrap things up by May.


text: This Alsatian house is known for their Gewürztraminer, and that's a wine I often recommend for Turkey Day. With its spicy component it pairs well with the wide variety of dishes of the eclectic feast. But that spice (which also works well with Asian cuisine) can be off-putting for some. This Pinot Gris makes for a great alternative. It has a silkyrich core of stone fruit flavors, with a balancing hit of food friendly acidity. A particularly good match for turkey with oyster stuffing.

A global biofuels trading company is fighting to collect a $32 million civil judgment awarded by a New York jury against Washakie Renewable Energy, which operates a large production complex in Box Elder County.
In a pair of U.S. District Court suits filed in March in Salt Lake City, attorneys for Singapore-based LifeTree Trading are pursuing asset information from Washakie CEO Jacob Kingston to compel payment of the debt.
Bio-diesel energy boom in remote Box Elder County
Box Elder approves tax deal for Washakie expansion
A federal jury in New York last November awarded $25.3 million in damages to LifeTree after Washakie and Kingston defaulted on a $91.3 million contract to buy 90,000 metric tons of biodiesel fuel. The judgment has since grown with interest and other costs.
On May 31, a judge refused Kingston's effort to quash a subpoena aimed at opening his assets to legal discovery.
LifeTree attorneys said in court documents they are trying to, among other things, "recover a significant fraudulent conveyance," a $9.9 million asset transfer from Washakie to Kingston.
"Washakie has been used by Kingston to perpetrate fraud by falsely reporting to be a large and successful producer of biofuels," said a document filed by LifeTree lawyer Michael Zundel.
"Furthermore, Kingston treats Washakie as his personal piggy bank, commingling his own funds with Washakie's and selectively transferring personal funds, in very large amounts, in and out of Washakie's bank and other financial accounts as the need arises, and in order to defraud third-parties, such as LifeTree."
Zundel said LifeTree should be granted a writ of attachment against Kingston's personal assets to secure payment of the $32 million judgment.
Efforts to contact Gabriel White, an attorney representing Kingston in the case, were not immediately successful
Story continues below photo.
Jacob Kingston and his brother Isaiah founded Washakie in 2007. The company is based in Salt Lake City and has its production operations near Plymouth in Box Elder County.
Washakie converts seed oil and used cooking fuel into biofuel additives federally mandated for gasoline and diesel.
The brothers are sons of John Daniel Kingston, a polygamist patriarch of the Kingston Group, also known as the Davis County Cooperative Society. The group has numerous business holdings in Utah and elsewhere.
LifeTree's dispute with Washakie and Kingston began in 2014 soon after the contract was signed when Washakie told the trading company it had not been able to secure a line of credit to pay for the shipment of biofuels.
LifeTree had bought biofuels from Argentina for the first of three shipments, 30,000 metric tons, and said it quickly and steadily suffered significant costs and losses from holding the materials pending payment and shipment.
Washakie never came up with the funds, and LifeTree said it suffered "devastating" damage to its business.
The contract specified a fixed price for the biofuels, LifeTree noted. As the line of credit delay dragged on, fuels prices plunged.
"Washakie locked in the purchase price solely to speculate on the market, setting LifeTree up to take the fall if the price declined below the contract price," LifeTree documents said.
In the New York suit, LifeTree sought $61 million in damages plus $180 million in punitive damages.
Washakie attorney Leodis Matthews argued in the trial that LifeTree had not sufficiently documented claimed losses.
"We have nothing — no proof of any damages," Matthews said, according to the trial transcript.
"Our position is that they (LifeTree) were playing the market," Matthews said. "This was a buy-and-sell operation."
In 2015, the Justice Department found that Washakie falsely claimed federal renewable energy credits in 2010. The company agreed to pay a $3 million settlement.

Implied Arc Income Elasticity of Demand
This content was COPIED from BrainMass.com - View the original, and get the already-completed solution here!
Organic Gardens is a leading distributor of potted plants and their maintenance for business environment. Demand for organic services is tied to overall pace of business activity and therefore is sensitive to changes in national income.The greenery service sector is highly competitive, so organics demand is also very price-sensitive.
During the past year, Organics sold 10,500 potted plants at an average wholesale price of $25 per plant. This year per capita income is expected to fall from $34,200 to $30,600 as the nation enters a steep recession. Without any price change, Organics expects current-year sales to fall to 7,500 potted plants.
D.- What economic factors do you think management should begin to include in their analysis that would improve their ability better predict overall sales?. How might they better manage their marketing strategy to improve sales?.
Solution Preview
We find the arc income elasticity by dividing the ratios of the changes in income and quantity demanded to the averages of income and quantity demanded. Thus we have:
[[QDemand(NEW) - QDemand(OLD)] / [QDemand(OLD) + QDemand(NEW)]]*2 / [[Income(NEW) - income(OLD)] / [Income(OLD) +Income)]]*2
Inserting the values we're given:
[[7,500- 10,500 ] / ...
Solution Summary
Implied Arc Income Elasticity of Demand is used to determine a marketing strategy.

A Hozon Homerun: What Restaurant Marketers Can Learn From Momofuku's Recent Collaborations/
It's not everyday that we see a group like Momofuku, Chef David Chang's culinary empire, collaborating with fast casuals like Sweetgreen or Shake Shack. But thanks to its Momofuku Culinary Lab, the restaurant group has been slinging out two new substances with unique, never-before-tasted flavor profiles — hozon and bonji — that everyone wants a taste of. And we can't blame them.
Earlier this month, it was announced that Sweetgreen would be teaming up with Momofuku to feature hozon in its June Salad of the Month (kale, roasted chicken, carrots, cucumbers, onion, sunflower sprouts, seeds, and basil, topped with sunflower hozon dressing).
Not long after, Chang allegedly caused the longest line in Shake Shack history with his limited time (only 1,000 were made) "Momofuku Shrimp Stack," which included Momofuku hozon sauce, Bibb lettuce, pickled onion, and salted cucumber.
"The lab became all things fermentation," said Chang. "And we started to make miso out of pistachio instead of using soybean. Cut the pistachios, add a little bit of salt, add a little bit of goji, and ferment it. That's basically it."
Kaizen Trading Company, a division of the culinary lab, was created "to showcase the results of our continued research," notes the website. "KTC is committed to making premium products inspired by Japan and Korean that taste uniquely American."
While we cannot confirm (with scheduling conflicts, Momofuku's rep could not get us in touch with the proper person to address these partnerships), perhaps that's precisely why Momofuku decided to partner with both Sweetgreen and Shake Shack — to feature these new profiles in a light that is not singular to just ethnic cuisine, but also to American cuisine. To highlight its versatility. To fill the gap between something that just works across the board with different types of cuisine. This type of branding strategy is almost genius, and here's why.
Local Partnerships: 'Local' has become a monstrous movement — in food & beverage, in marketing and social media, and just about any business strategy. People connect with local. Local aides transparency. And it certainly bridges community. It makes sense, then, that NYC-based Momofuku decided to temporarily partner with other NYC-based brands. (Sweetgreen expanded its New York locations earlier this year.)
Fast Casual LTOs: By teasing guests with opportunities to try hozon at an affordable price, more people will be exposed to Chang's lab creation. Not only does this benefit the Momofuku brand as being top-of-mind and educational, but it draws people to an experience, which is what consumers nowadays are looking for. It also generates more revenue for the collaborators and puts all brands involved in a positive light, where diners can anticipate new options at their usual spot they otherwise may not be able to try.
Versatility: It makes sense that Sweetgreen, the stylish Salad Bar 3.0, would highlight hozon in its salad dressing with a tinge of summer for its June Salad. But housing hozon, in the same month, in a burger, shows the flavor's versatility. By choosing two completely different routes to feature hozon, Momofuku is really driving its point home.
Classic Meets Modern: Even the fast casuals that Momofuku collaborated with is strategic — Shake Shack is part of one of the most historical NYC-based hospitality groups — Danny Meyer's Union Square Hospitality Group — with its first location being built in 2004. On the other side of the spectrum is Sweetgreen, a New Age concept launched by three Georgetown alums, known for not only its healthy options, but also its digital savvy. While both concepts cater to different generations, they're both held in high regard to Millennials.
Kaizen Trading Company is providing a handful of notable restaurants with hozon, including ABC Kitchen, Alder, Estela, and all of the Momofuku concepts.

text: Newsweek. 19th October 2015.Israelis Turn To Self-Defense As Anxiety Rises Over Knife Attacks Business is booming at the Haboleshet Spy Shop in central Tel Aviv. Mor, who has worked for six months at the self-defense store, says customers laugh when he tells them that the shop's stock of pepper spray, tasers and batons is sold out. The past two weeks have been the "craziest and busiest time," Mor says in a phone interview with Newsweek. The shop, one of the only stores that stocks self-defense equipment in Israel's largest city, is selling 20 to 40 batons and 50 to 100 canisters of pepper spray a day, Mor says. In previous times, that would have amounted to three weeks' worth of stock. The amused reaction of Mor's customers masks a growing anxiety over the recent wave of stabbings committed by Palestinians on Israel's streets. Eight Israelis have been killed and dozens wounded in the knife attacks across the country in the past two weeks and now worried civilians are turning to self-defense measures in greater numbers. Dozens of Palestinians, including some attackers, have also been killed in subsequent violence. Read more.

Bag: Coach dinky crossbody bag
Shoes: Zara mid-heel shoes (similar)
Bordeaux is the new black. For my partnership with Coach, I picked out the Dinky bag in a beautiful bordeaux 1941 red. It comes in a glovetanned leather that is buttery soft and luxurious. Like many of their other bags, it is designed with versatility in mind. This one can be converted into a handheld clutch, shoulder bag or worn as a crossbody. There are two small compartments on the inside and one exterior slip pocket, perfect for your phone. My favourite part of this bag is the coin purse pocket on the inside, which is great for stowing your lipstick, loose change and your cards if you don't want to carry your wallet. It's a beautifully made bag and I would recommend it to anyone who is a fan of form and function.

Women tap feelings, find creativity during 'Muse' retreat
The journaling exercise asked each participant to write about an event that shaped her life.
The journaling exercise asked each participant to write about an event that shaped her life.
One woman detailed giving a child up for adoption as a single, 26-year-old Mormon. Another described her choice to marry a pilot and the dreams its transient nature would stunt. One told of a relationship she had at 18 with a much older man, the perversions she couldn't see then but are clear now.
The retreat is called "You Are Your Own Muse." It's held at Selah, an art salon downtown dedicated to helping people find their own creativity. Today's event will last all day. Participants will get in touch with the stuff they normally tuck away deep inside those mental corners not intended for an audience. But it has already started to emerge today and will ultimately produce art. They'll end the day with a watercolor self-portrait.
Although nothing about the retreat indicates it's exclusive to women, men never sign up. After the journaling session, it's clear why.
None of the six women attending the retreat could read her entry aloud without pausing for tears. On that hot summer day, the only thing that blasted with more force than the air conditioner was the estrogen in the room.
There was Adrianne Jensen Tawa, the 47-year-old high school choir director; Kelly McCabe, a 33-year-old stay-at-home mom; Trisha Maier, a 34-year-old photographer; Lisa Friedli, a 38-year-old bar owner; Connie Atkinson, a 62-year-old retired hairstylist; and 36-year-old Sabrina Cofield, who co-owns Selah with Daria Riley.
Each of them signed up for different reasons. For instance, Friedli thought of it as "something totally different that I would never do." Kind of like buying a bar. It was a rare opportunity that, a year ago her doctorate in molecular entomology may not have even let her consider. But postdivorce, the mother of two went her own way personally, moving to the Northwest, and now she's doing it professionally, too.
Just before breaking for lunch, instructor Sarah Greenman asked the class to complete the following thought. "I once believed (blank). I now believe (blank)."
Answers ranged from "in others' opinions, in my own opinion" to "men rule the world, I rule the world."
Creativity builds self-esteem. It also takes self-esteem to find and express it.
According to Greenman, who works as an artist, freelance writer, photographer and actor, it's much easier for little kids to pick up a paintbrush and get busy than it is for an adult. Why?
"Because they don't think they suck," Greenman says. "It doesn't occur to a 4-year-old to question his worth unless told otherwise."
It's not a matter of the time an art project will consume or the mess it will create. It's about courage.
As soon as the watercolors come out at today's retreat, that becomes obvious. The time it takes each participant to lay brush to canvas is significant.
Everyone brought a picture of herself to use as a guide. They've drawn a grid across the photo, which will give them an idea of the space with which they're working.
Three women sit on the floor in front of their easels. The other three sit in chairs. All are barefoot.
Loud chatter proceeded the artwork. Now it's silent, with occasional commentary.
"My hands are sweating," McCabe says.
"My eyes don't look proportioned at all," Cofield says.
Once the courage comes, there are still barriers.
"Most people I work with have one of two issues in terms of their creative life," Greenman says. "Either they can't allow themselves to have a creative moment. It's trapped or stifled. Or, they have a million ideas through the course of the day."
She addresses both the same way, asking poignant questions, which she calls "priming the pump for inspiration."
"It encourages them to use their own stories," she says.
When the portraits are finished, everyone is pleasantly surprised with their paintings, except Maier. Hers is more abstract, less a duplicate of the original photo. The rest of the class finds beauty in that.
Tawa's work looks impressively close to the original. "I don't hate it," she says. "I'm shocked. I thought I would be painting a stick figure."
As class ends, the women give long hugs. Before today they knew nothing of each other and now have read some of the most private pages from their journals.
"Just keep trying, keep creating," Greenman tells them, as they collect their purses. "The point is to take time for yourself and take that internal temperature, 'Where am I now?' "
Before leaving, they pose for a group picture, proudly holding their paintings. The photographer doesn't need to tell anyone to smile.

Barden Family Orchard Family Session | 10.19.15
A huge shout-out to Olivia at Olivia Gird Photography for capturing our family in such a perfect way. Though you would never know it, little Miss Evie was on the verge of coming down with a cold the day we did this session, and it was REALLY difficult to get her in the mood for getting her photo taken (being a two year old could have had something to do with it as well ;)). Olivia still managed to capture some really beautiful moments between us. Thank you, thank you, thank you with all of our heart!

The past week or so in Sunriver has been cold! While out showing property in Sunriver this past Saturday I was stomping my boots, trying to get some warmth back in to my frozen feet and thought to myself, "this is the coldest it has been in the past few years." We all survived the frigid temperatures but all commented to each other that it felt good to get warmed back up!
On 12/10/13 The Sunriver Owners Association posted the following message & picture on their website:
"Winter is upon us and Sunriver has already experienced a bone-chilling -27 below zero on Dec. 7, with daytime temps in single digits and low teens.
Freezing conditions can lead to frozen pipes. If your home is unoccupied, be sure the thermostat is set warm enough to keep your pipes from freezing, or if your pipes are heat-taped, be sure it is plugged in and operational. Inside your home, cupboard/closet doors can be left open to expose pipes to warmer interior air.
This Sunriver home was only discovered Dec. 11 by someone driving by. Water was leaking from the second story, creating a wall of ice.
You can make arrangements with a home service or property management company to check on your home throughout the winter months.
Occupied or not, your crawl space vents should be closed and vent plugs in place. Outside faucets should also have foam covers in place.
As your owners association, we try to provide you with information you might need to protect and enjoy your Sunriver home, but we do not provide property management or security services. The following local businesses provide home check and/or security services. Registration with SROA is not required for many of the services they provide. We are aware of them through various sources, but listing them here does not in any way imply endorsement by SROA, and the list may not be complete. If you are unable to ask a friend or neighbor to check your home, you may want to contact one of them. (You can see the SROA's full message and contractor list by clicking here)"

Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Lectionary: 100
A Reading from the Gospel according to Matthew
Mt 11:25-30
At that time Jesus exclaimed:
"I give praise to you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth,
for although you have hidden these things
from the wise and the learned
you have revealed them to little ones.
Yes, Father, such has been your gracious will.
All things have been handed over to me by my Father.
No one knows the Son except the Father,
and no one knows the Father except the Son
and anyone to whom the Son wishes to reveal him."
"Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened,
and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,
for I am meek and humble of heart;
and you will find rest for yourselves.
For my yoke is easy, and my burden light."
Salesian Sunday Reflection
Fourteenth Sunday of Ordinary Time
Today's Gospel speaks of our need to be gentle and humble of heart. St. Francis de Sales notes:
Take care that gentleness and humility are found within your heart. Little by little, bring your quick mind around to being patient, gentle, humble, and affable in the midst of the pettiness, childishness and imperfections of others. Humility and gentleness are true and good when they preserve us from the inflammation and swelling that injuries usually cause in our hearts.
One of the best exercises in gentleness that we can perform is in ourselves. Reason requires that we must be displeased and sorry whenever we commit a fault. Yet when we do so, we must refrain from bitter, gloomy, spiteful and emotional displeasure with ourselves. We correct ourselves much better by calm, steady repentance than by harshness. These fits of anger against ourselves spring from our self-centered love that is disturbed and upset at seeing it is imperfect. If I had seriously committed a fault, I would correct my heart in a reasonable, compassionate way and say: "Alas my poor heart, here we are, fallen into the pit we were so firmly resolved to avoid! Well, we must get up again and leave it forever. Let us start out again on the way by trusting in God. God will help us and we will do better."
When you are inwardly peaceful, perform as many acts of gentleness as you can, no matter how small and do all you can to develop a spirit of compassion. As long as reason rules and peaceably chastises, corrects, and warns, even though firmly and exactly, everyone loves and approves it. If we find ourselves aroused to anger we must call for God's help like the apostles when the wind and the storm tossed them about. This life is only a journey to the happy life to come. We must march as companions united in gentleness, peace and love.
