'You Are Exactly Where You Need To Be': A Recap of My Create & Cultivate LA Experience
As I write this, I'm at 40,000 feet flying home from Los Angeles to St. Louis and coming down from one of the biggest event highs I've ever experienced. I attended this year's Create & Cultivate LA gathering over the weekend, where over 1,000 women in creative industries gathered to learn from the best of the best in blogging, fashion, marketing, design and more.
One of my biggest 2018 goals for my business was to attend one creative conference per quarter, so Create & Cultivate LA seemed to perfectly fit the bill for Q1. After seeing fun highlights from previous C&C conferences in Seattle and New York City, I grabbed my ticket as soon as they went on sale and booked my flight – hello, sunny California!
Have you ever considered attending a C&C event yourself? I hope you find this blog post helpful! I'll be breaking down core parts of the conference below, as well as a recap of my pros and cons of attending at the end. Regarding the pros and cons – this is simply my subjective commentary! Every conference attendee will certainly have a different outlook on their experience.
Conference Arrival + Morning Sessions
You get your bang for your buck when it comes to attending a C&C conference – our day kicked off at 8 a.m. and ran until well after 9 p.m.! I arrived along with my friends Lisa of Lark Skin Co. and Myray of Myray Creative a bit before 8 a.m., where we checked in and were segmented by tracks.
I was in Track 2, which focused on influencer marketing, content creation and social media best practices. The additional Track 1 of the conference focused on entrepreneurship and business best practices, finance tips and more. Since I'm a business owner who is also a content creator, I would have been happy in either track!
Once check-in was complete, attendees got to treat themselves to an array of healthy breakfast options along with unlimited kombucha (yassss!), coconut water, coffee and tea. Quick grab and go snacks were also available for attendees who may have been in a rush and didn't want to sit and eat.
Before heading into the first sessions of the day, I took time to take in my surroundings – and wow, were they gorgeous! C&C had every nook and cranny of the event space fully branded and looking amazing, with hundreds of Instagram-worthy spots to snap a photo.
My morning panel sessions included Podcasting 101 and Never Not Posting, two great sessions about rocking it at podcasting and keeping up with the ever-evolving and ever-demanding world of social media. Each panel had a ton of great women included, including one of my favorite – Jen Gotch, founder of ban.do!
Afternoon Vendors + Beauty Bar
After a few sessions I was feeling a little tired – and hungry. I popped back over to the food tent area to grab an early lunch and decided on a delicious vegan poke bowl, made with beets and pickled mushrooms. At the time, I was supposed to be meeting in a small mentorship group that was assigned to me...but I skipped out on that and opted to peruse the vendor tents instead to decompress and meet other conference attendees.
One thing I can say about C&C is this – expect to come home with a ton of swag! So many of my favorite brands (LaCroix, RXBAR, Urban Outfitters and WeWork, just to name a few!) had booths at the event, so it was great to connect with them on a face-to-face level.
Once I scooped up some swag, I ventured into the event's Beauty Bar space where brands like TRESemmé and Nordstrom were offering complimentary makeup touch-ups and hair styling all day long. I sat down to get my hair refreshed, which was a great way to relax in the middle of the day!
Evening Sessions + Keynotes
Not going to lie – at this point, I was exhausted. After walking to and from different stages all day to catch panel sessions, chatting with brands and new acquaintances and trying not to break an ankle in the heels I was wearing (haha!), I was ready to sit down and take a little breather.
I enjoyed one last panel session with well-known bloggers like Gal Meets Glam and Song of Style before the event began winding down panels for the day and brought the Track 1 and Track 2 attendees together for evening keynote sessions.
Things got a little intense here – people were acting straight-up crazy when it came to finding seats for these keynote speakers! We were held outside of the event space, and then let in all at once. Although I was able to grab a decent seat, it was pretty stressful.
Up next was Lauren Conrad (my favorite!) who spoke about business ownership and the evolution of her ethical brand, The Little Market. After Lauren, the hilarious Twitter queen Chrissy Teigen came on to chat about learning to hone your personal brand, staying true to yourself and how her career has evolved after modeling.
After these two sessions, we took a break for a quick happy hour so that the room could be set up for the biggest keynote speaker of the night – Kim Kardashian! I'm admittedly a low-key Keeping Up With The Kardashians fan, so I was really excited to have the chance to see her in person. However, I was very curious to see what she had to say at a conference that centers on entrepreneurship and business.
Of course, the crowd went nuts when Kim took the stage! Throughout her keynote session she spoke about her upbringing, how her career had evolved (from owning DASH, to having a wildly successful reality TV series, to launching her fragrance and makeup lines, to being a mom). I was pleasantly surprised by Kim's insightfulness on a few important topics, especially teamwork and motherhood.
After Kim ended her talk, C&C wrapped up, we grabbed our massive gift bags full of great products and it was time to go to sleep!
• The diverse lineup of panelists and keynote speakers: from mental health podcasters and body positive activists to Lauren Conrad and Kim Kardashian, there was a little something for everyone at C&C LA.
• The event venue: as I mentioned earlier, the event venue – City Market South – was absolutely gorgeous! It was located in LA's Fashion District and easily accessible from the Downtown LA Airbnb I stayed in.
• The vendor swag: I think it's safe to say I love free stuff – who doesn't? I'm happy that I'm going home with great new health, skincare and hair products to try out!
• The networking opportunities: everywhere you looked at the event, there was someone new to chat with. I made friends with a bunch of great ladies by sitting together for breakfast and lunch, and even just striking up a conversation while waiting in line for the bathroom.
• The lack of education: don't get me wrong – C&C LA was an invaluable source of inspiration. I'm feeling more inspired in my business now more than ever! But if you're looking to really dig in and learn actionable takeaways for building your business to be better, faster and stronger this large gathering may not be for you. It's unrealistic to learn huge, earth-shattering takeaways for your business from a 30-minute panel. However, I'm looking forward to future gatherings that will celebrate C&C's Work Party, which I hope will provide more intimate, hands-on education opportunities.
• Conference group size: in my opinion, C&C events may benefit from inviting a smaller group of women to future gatherings. Because over 1,000 is a lot! Although it was great that the chance to meet someone new around every corner was there, was for someone like me who is typically more reserved, it was a bit overwhelming.
All in all, my experience attending C&C LA was incredible and very memorable! I'm so glad that I took the leap and bought my ticket to attend and pushed myself outside of my comfort zone to connect with other creatives at the event.
Tell me in the comments: are you planning to attend a Create & Cultivate event in the future? I hope you do! If you have any additional questions about my experience, I'm happy to answer them for you.

We hope everyone had an awesome time at the Halloween Party and practicing in the Haunted Studio. However, all good things must come to an end, so it's time to clean up the studio and return it to its non-haunted state. Since many hands make light work, all are invited to come by and help out. On Sunday, November 5 at 2pm, we will have pizza and we will put away all the ghoulish things.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us. Also, don't forget our calendar is always available here.

The ups and downs of a fashion label
We would like to share a story with you that we received from one of our experts, Anita Moser, an experienced Swiss shoe designer and entrepreneur. She forwarded a newsletter from "The Business of Fashion" to us on "A.F. Vandevorst's Hard-Earned Happy Birthday" by Suleman Anaya (14 October 2013). It tells the story of the ups and downs of this label and its two founders (both gradutes from Antwerpen), which in many ways is exemplary for the business also many of the Swiss fashion designers are dealing with. To name a few of these typical elements:

I had a large bunch of curly leaf parsley that I had no interest in eating so I juiced the lot with carrots, apples, celery, kale and turmeric. Surprisingly lovely
Parsley is an excellent source of vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin K. It is a good source of iron and folate.
Eat parsley for heart health as well protection against Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Happy juicing 🙂

Truworths Supports mHealth at m2m
m2m is excited to announce Truworths, a South African fashion retailer, as our most recent supporter. Through a donation from its staff, m2m will be able to bring mobile technology, or mHealth, to even more communities in sub-Saharan Africa.
mHealth has the potential to revolutionise how community health workers connect with patients and support treatment adherence. But, according to the World Health Organization, the African region has a low level of implementation of many of these initiatives. With supporters like Truworths, we are able to invest further in the mHealth tools and training we need to bring this game-changing technology to the places that need it most and create health and hope for entire families.

Inspired By | Denim Skirts/
WhatIWore: With my 70s fashion kick in full swing, I've been really inspired by denim skirts - specifically button front A-line or pencil cut versions. Depending on where in the world you live, you've either seen a lot of this trend or really hope it never catches hold. Jean skirts can go really wrong (search them on Pinterest and you'll see what I mean) but they can also look really fresh and chic. I like them best with tops tucked in (even halfway) to a higher rise and without sneakers. I'll take my styling cues from the images above - stripes, chambray and neutral tops.


text: I wanted so badly to "teach him a lesson". To let him know what he'd done…that he walk away from this place knowing how rude and awful he was. And then I looked back at my daughter. This was her time. She had a brief glimpse of what it's like to help someone in need. She didn't need to know the ugly side of it.Read More

Episcopal Charities brings to a broken world the hope for lasting change, rooted in Episcopal vision, faith, and experience expressed through collective community efforts.
"In a values-based organization, people at every level come together for a higher purpose." From Values to Action, Harry M. Jansen Kraemer, Jr.
At Episcopal Charities, our mission - bringing a message of hope to a broken world - is the higher purpose that calls together people from all walks-of-life and from all corners of the Diocese. These are the values that guide our every action and inspire us to give the very best of our time, money, and talents...as, together, with God's grace we pursue this higher purpose.
Since Episcopal Charities and Community Services [ECCS] was founded in 1960, God has used this ministry to transform thousands of lives in the Diocese of Chicago. Today, this life-changing social outreach is accomplished through ECCS' support of its ministry partners and, increasingly, through its New Ventures and Capacity Building initiatives.
This year, Episcopal Charities will:
Episcopal Charities and Community Services is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization registered in Illinois and governed by an independent board of trustees. Its ministry is entirely funded by charitable donations received from individuals, congregations, businesses, and foundations.

Amputees: Implanting Prosthetics
Two veteran amputees are to begin a new study using the first ever prosthetic implants. The amputee veterans have already had the surgeries that outfitted them with the implants, and the study will take 10 years. The goal is to reduce energy expenditure because amputees must use a lot more energy to perform the same movements as someone that still has their limbs. The implant should help improve function and performance, as well as reduce the energy it costs to move. This is incredible news for not only these two amputees, but for wounded warriors everywhere. This study will help pave the way to better technology for amputees, and it would not be possible without the use of animal research. Scientists must do a massive amount of research perfecting and showing the safety and efficacy of new treatments and therapies before we can begin to target them for humans.

Spoiler alert: I hate to be the bearer of bad news, there are no coked up jungle animals in this one like we got in Hit-Girl #2. But don't worry, there's plenty to look forward to.
As Hit-Girl starts pushing for Mano to take out his former comrades, he starts to get cold feet and looks for a way out. But he should know that Hit-Girl always has a backup plan to the backup plan.
This installment in the Hit-Girl series takes a more serious turn after the last issue. As much fun as that was, this is when we start to see our hero face a true challenge. Up to this point, even in the craziest of situations, she has been in full control. But can she find a way to outsmart Mano?
One of my favorite things about this series is the art. Ricardo Lopez Ortiz has a great style, and it fits in perfectly with the type of action that happens in Hit-Girl. My personal preference is usually to read the story, then go back for the art, but it's impossible to ignore the artwork as I read through one of these issues.
As we move one step closer to the Columbia conclusion, I can't wait to see where this story goes!
Hit-Girl #3
Publisher: Image Comics
Release Date: April 25, 2018
Writer: Mark Millar
Art: Ricardo Lopez Ortiz
Fresnerd Grade: 4.5/5 stars. Millar pushes the story to the next level, giving our heroine a true challenge to escape.


text: Is Centipedegrass a Good Choice for Lawns? Find Out Now Centipedegrass is a thick, uniformly-growing lawn grass that is popular among gardeners. Read to know more about this sod-forming grass. Batul Nafisa Baxamusa Last Updated: Sep 27, 2018 Centipedegrass is a low-maintenance grass type that requires less mowing and takes a long period to grow back between mowing cycles. This is a drought-tolerant grass as it grows close to the ground which helps conserve water. It can also survive cold winters and recover from light freezes. It is a creeping perennial that can adapt to low-fertile sandy soils and acidic soils. The process to care for this plant is discussed further. Overview The botanical name of centipedegrass is Eremochloa ophiuroides. It was introduced in America in 1919 and is originally from China. Its place of origin gives rise to its other common names like 'China Grass' or 'Chinese Lawn Grass'. It is a slow-growing perennial grass. It spreads through stolons. It looks like a centipede and thus, is named after it. It easily adapts to full sun or partial shade and is ideal for lawns that have limited care and maintenance. It looks like St. Augustine grass, but is different in texture. The size of the leaves are medium in width but finer than those of St. Augustine grass. The stolons have internodes and the roots develop at these internodes. This helps in developing a good, thick lawn. The garden can be easily managed by routine mowing. The grass is not as wear resistant as bermuda grass or zoysia grass and can be controlled with edging. You can practice the process of edging once a year. How to Plant it The grass can be planted in the form of seeds or by vegetative planting. Plugging, sprigging, or sodding are some of the ways of vegetative propagation. It needs a soil pH of 5.0 to 5.5 for best growth. It may develop severe iron chlorosis, that is, yellowing in a soil that has a pH of more than 6.5. You will find that the seeds are very expensive and the seedling rate is low. You need to buy only those seeds that have a purity rate of 90% or more. You should buy ¼ to ½ pound of seed per 1,000 square feet of the area that you are planning on sowing. You need to mix 1 pound of centipedegrass with 20 pounds of dry sand to obtain best results. You should plant the seeds between April to July as this is the full growing season for the seeds to germinate. It takes about 2 to 3 weeks to germinate and thus, you need to mulch to prevent soil erosion and loss of seeds. How to Cut the Grass You need to cut the grass according to the correct mowing height and frequency to help it grow better. It should be mowed at a height of about 1 to 1½ inches and the frequency should be such that only about 30% of the leaf area is removed. The mowing height should be increased during drought periods. If you keep the height below 1 inch it will reduce the density of the lawn and make your turf thinner. Mowing too high or irregular cause a buildup of thatch. This may injure the plant in cold weather and during drought stress. Problems There are a few problems that you may observe. They have poor tolerance to low temperature, and extreme cold winters may lead to their death. They are not wear resistant and cannot tolerate high traffic, high phosphorus soils, low potassium soils, and soil compactions. They also have problems with high soil pH, excessive thatch, salt, and heavy shade. Another very frequent problem is its susceptibility to pests. This grass is aggressive and can lead to the death of other weeds and grasses. It is one of the most popular grasses in the southeastern states. You can speak to your local plant nursery for more guidance about the same.

156,000 New Jobs Added in the U.S., What Does This Mean for the Restaurant Industry?/
According to the latest labor report, the U.S. created 156,000 new jobs in August.
Although economists expected this number to be closer to 170,000 and the unemployment rate increased slightly from 4.3 percent to 4.4 percent, we still saw significant growth in the job market last month.
This also means consumer spending, especially at restaurants, is up.
"The August jobs report generally offers positive news to job seekers, illustrating the remarkable resilience of the job market today," said Andrew Chamberlain, chief economist at Glassdoor to "MarketWatch."
The jobless rate has fallen to a 16-year low.
"The U-6 unemployment rate, which captures all labor underutilization, including unemployed and discouraged workers, fell 0.1 percentage points in August to 7.4 percent—the lowest it has been since April 2001. Meanwhile, the share of the labor force working part-time for economic reasons fell to 2.7 percent in August, down from 3.6 percent in January 2017. This is the lowest it has been since April 2006," writes the White House in a recent labor report.
The sectors adding the most jobs include construction, health care, and manufacturing.
However, workers' wages have seen sluggish growth at .1 percent. Wages have increased by 2.5 percent in the last 12 months, which is less than the usual 3-4 percent during an economic recovery period. This could also be because high salaried baby boomers are retiring and leaving the job market.
Nonetheless, President Donald Trump was quick to celebrate the wage report on Twitter.
"We are breaking all Jobs and Economic Records but, importantly, our Country has TREMENDOUS FUTURE POTENTIAL. We have just begun!" tweeted Trump.
So what does this mean for the restaurant industry?
Well, the good news is that consumers are dining out more often. The bad news is that there is a lot of competition in the labor market. This has made it especially difficult for restaurants, especially fast food chains, to hire and retain staff. Fast food chains with low employee satisfaction suffer the most in a tight labor market.

Entering the fifth year of partnership with Art Central, 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art (Sydney) returns in 2019 with a curated performance programme featuring four interactive and live works by leading contemporary artists from across the Asia-Pacific region.
Ideas of time and duration, questioning the futility and fruits of human endeavour are all addressed by leading contemporary artists through a series of daily on-site performances, interrupting the hum of the fair, with challenging examination of the exhaustive state of perpetual busy-ness and the act of counting down. The participating artists are: Bettina Fung (Hong Kong/United Kingdom), Brian Fuata (Australia), Minja Gu (Korea) and Siu Lan Ko (Hong Kong/ Canada).

Bettina Fung
I am tired with you
Best known for her performative drawing practice that invites collaboration from the audience, Hong Kong born British-Chinese artist Bettina Fung will present I am tired with you – a piece that is fundamentally anchored in the traditions of print-making. The artist opens the performance with a plate filled with heavy-duty pigment before layering a piece of paper on top. As the paper adheres to the paint, members of the audience are invited to play the role of the printing press by writing, walking and conversing about a contemporary culture of busyness, sharing their reflections on fatigue and labour relations, while simultaneously contemplating possibilities of "non-doing". Each of these audience interventions forms a palimpsest of mark making on the painted surface, creating a collective mind map of the audiences' thoughts on the subject.
Performance Schedule:
Tuesday, 26 March: 6:00PM – 7:30PM (Booth P05)
Wednesday, 27 March: 1:30PM – 3:00 PM 6:00PM – 7:30PM (Booth P05)

Minja Gu
The Authentic Quality : HK
Expanding on a previous project, Korean artist Minja Gu has been commissioned to set up a restaurant-cum-exhibition-cum-relational aesthetics project in an art fair setting, where she adopts the persona of a cooking infomercial personality, using the ubiquitous two-minute noodle packet as a tool to prompt conversational exchange about food culture and societal pressure to conform. Through the performance, the artist seeks to mimic contorted media and commercial imagery in a pursuit of perfection – an act that takes much longer than the prescribed two minutes. Having never travelled to Hong Kong, Gu will use this cooking platform to understand the unfamiliar ingredients, politics and processes of the city – something which she hopes fellow sympathisers at the fair will help her navigate.
Performance Schedule:

Brian Fuata
Care Disfigurements (flowers)
Sydney-based Samoan, writer and performer Brian Fuata has been commissioned to present his signature 'ghost' performance – a living series that considers the images of ghosts through a durational performance. Both an actor and artist, Fuata infuses dead pan humour with performance routines, combining bed sheets and mineral water in a clever cocktail that travels through the entire emotional, artistic and entertainment spectrum. This performance will traverse the fair, engaging with works from booth to booth, providing visual stimuli for his evolving poetry.

Siu Lan Ko
New Territories Old Territories
Canadian-based Hong Kong artist Siu Lan Ko creates text-based installations and durational performances that examine ideas of space, geography and nationhood. Drawing inspiration from cylindrical prayer wheels found in temples, the work, both a performance piece and an interactive sculpture, takes the format of three large spindles, each printed with words that describe the political trajectory of Hong Kong. As audiences interact with them, they form evolving sentences that reflect the continuously developing relationship between Hong Kong and China; "Hong Kong is Hong Kong", "Hong Kong is China", "Hong Kong isn't China", "China is Hong Kong". Reflecting on Hong Kong's 50-year period of transition, Siu Lan Ko invites Hong Kong performance artists to activate the installation with her in innovative ways that test the boundaries of duration, politics and performance. Visitors will also be invited to turn the spindles and consider their ideas of Hong Kong, now and into the future.

Foodie Files: Barbuzzo's Cruffin!!!!
Do you like nice things? Do you continuously practice self-care? Then you should've been in Philly on October 29th standing in line with me and a hundred other people waiting to experience the glory that is the Cruffin.
More specifically, 13th and Chestnut. Even more specifically, the Salted Caramel Budino Stuffed Cruffin at Barbuzzo.
If you haven't figured out by now, a Cruffin is a hybrid pastry consisting of a croissant and a muffin. Although I'm not sure of its original origins, Barbuzzo has done something amazing by perfecting not only the recipe of the crunchy and buttery outer shell but the luscious filling that is the right balance of salty and sweet.
Can we talk about this for a second? Why is Barbuzzo fucking with my emotions? Do you see this filling? Do you see the smooth consistency that caresses your tongue like a glass of good feelings and morals?
I can't stress enough how phenomenal this pastry was. It's seriously may be one of the best morning pastries I've ever had. Period. They completely sold out within an hour Friday morning but they baked twice as many on Saturday and I'm sure they sold out shortly after I left. Who knows when they're going to bring this back again but, if you were one of the fortunate ones, thank Barbuzzo for making our lives just a little better.

Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka
In this curious and inventive drama, director and co-writer Claude Chabrol purloins the Hamlet story from a certain Elizabethan bard, and has his characters move along the same plot outlines. Yvan (Andre Jocelyn) is overcome by grief when his father, a noted businessman, dies and is buried in their small town. Yvan's anger boils up as he watches his mother flirt with his father's brother, and he only feels worse when the two get married. The small-minded, gossiping townspeople carry on behind his back and one day, when Yvan sees a theater marquee advertising "Hamlet" he decides to set out proving that his mother and his father's brother connived to poison his father.

Kehinde Wiley is a New York-based portrait painter, who is mostly famous for his realistic paintings of African-American men. His models are usually dressed in their modern, everyday clothes, but they pose in heroic positions, like in classical portrait paintings.
Y5/6 have created their backgrounds using tessellation. They made their own interlocking tiles and drew around them to create a repetitive pattern. The children then posed for a photograph and used a grid to help them sketch their pictures, thinking about their proportions. The bright colours are in contrast to the portraits, which they drew and shaded using different sketching pencils.

In these security-heightened days, few members of the public with business at City Hall object to walking through the X-ray machine or putting their bags through an airport-style scanner. City employees and members of the press, on the other hand, just flash their identification badges at the security guards and head on up.
But in 2006, the city paid a security company $66,000 to install optical turnstiles. In theory, employees would swipe their IDs before being allowed to enter the building. For two years, the turnstiles sat inert in the lobby at 202 C St., serving as nothing more than a kind of walk-lane for anyone trying to get to the elevators. Then, late last month, having never once been activated, they were removed.
The security guards who man the X-ray machine had their theories: People were afraid of being tracked; no one was in charge of the system; the system didn't work. Well, thanks to numerous e-mails and documents CityBeat obtained in a public-records request, they can be assured that they turned out to be at least partly right.
The city asked for proposals to improve security at various citywide installations back in late 2004, with formal proposals due in February 2005. The contract was intended to be paid for out of a U.S. Department of Homeland Security grant called the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI—this is the same funding stream that San Diego almost lost out on in 2006, when Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff decided the city wasn't in danger of a terrorist attack). The money has to be used within three years of getting it, or it can be lost. But possibly because of the chaos surrounding Mayor Dick Murphy's resignation, the stewardship of Deputy Mayor Toni Atkins, and the change to an executive-mayor style of government, the proposals languished.
On June 19, 2006, with the clock ticking on the 2003 UASI funding, the city chose UPS Security Systems, based in Orange, Calif., to do $235,000 worth of security improvements for various city facilities. Part of that, about $66,000, was for the turnstiles. City e-mails describe the rushed process to get UPS paid before the money disappeared. The invoice even has "rush" scrawled at the bottom.
On Nov. 28, 2006, the turnstiles were installed. City Councilmember Donna Frye recalls questioning city staff about them at the time, and then again at a May 9, 2007, budget-review hearing. And she remembers how annoying it was to get new ID cards for all city staff.
"Everybody in the city had to go get new ID cards, and they had to get photographed, which was time-consuming," Frye said.
Pam Hardy, former spokesperson for City Council President Scott Peters, said she remembers getting a memo about the new system after it was installed. But then, silence.
Reporters attending a press conference in early December questioned Fred Sainz, Mayor Jerry Sanders' press secretary at the time, about whether they would need new ID cards, but he told them not to worry about it. Wise advice, because nothing happened with the turnstiles for the next 14 months. Occasionally, an e-mail from one city staffer or another indicated that no one seemed to know who was in charge of the project, or what was happening. Last winter, responsibility settled on Jill Olen, Sanders' deputy chief operating officer of public safety.
Olen organized staff to start creating a communications plan for educating city workers and asked for a test run of the machines. The first test, in March, had several technical problems, including a broken reader. A second test, in July, went better on the technical front, but Olen was unhappy with how it functioned.
"It had longer wait times than we anticipated," Olen told CityBeat. "It was slowing down our ingress and egress for employees, and we didn't think that was a necessary level of security."
So they took it out. Right now, there's just empty space where the turnstiles used to be, and reporters and City Hall employees flash their IDs at the security guards, as they always have.
People who monitor city spending are disappointed with the city's behavior.
"While $66,000 may not sound like a significant amount, right now every penny makes a difference," said Lani Lutar, president and CEO of the San Diego County Taxpayers Association, referring to the city's current $43-million budget deficit. "That money could have gone toward other important needs within the city."
Scott Barnett, who runs Taxpayer Advocate, a nonprofit City Hall watching organization, took a similar view. "You have a lot of little $66,000 situations and it starts to add up to real money," he said. "How many other of these types of things are happening at City Hall?"
When a city has to abandon a project paid for by Homeland Security, it has to submit a letter to the state Department of Homeland Security, which administers the grant for the federal government. The city has not yet submitted its letter, but Elaine Jennings, a spokesperson for the California DHS, said a review like this is routine."We want to make sure a good-faith effort was made to spend the money properly, that's the most important thing," she said. "In a worst-case scenario, the money would be given back."

COLUMBIA, S.C. (CNS) — A new era and a distinguished new title has come to St. Peter Church in downtown Columbia.
It was announced June 24 that the historic house of worship will now be known as the Basilica of St. Peter. It is the first minor basilica in South Carolina and the 85th in the United States.
The announcement came before packed pews at the 11 a.m. Mass, which was celebrated by Bishop Robert E. Guglielmone of Charleston. The news had added significance because it was the feast of the Nativity of St. John the Baptist, the patron saint of the statewide diocese.
Father Gary Linsky, pastor at St. Peter, read aloud the official declaration from the Vatican's Congregation for Divine Worship and the Sacraments.
There are only four major basilicas, all in Rome — St. Peter's, St. John Lateran, St. Paul Outside the Walls and St. Mary Major. Minor basilicas are located both in Rome and around the world. Churches given that title must be of historical, artistic and architectural importance, and have significance as a center of worship.
"St. Peter is a church of history and beauty, a place where liturgy is celebrated well and a center of all sorts of outreach," Bishop Guglielmone said in his homily. "The honor of being named a basilica is an indication that this church is in very strong communion with the Holy Father."
The idea of seeking the designation of basilica was first proposed in late 2016 by Mark Husey, former music director at the parish.
Two parishioners, Darryl Williams and William Neglia, helped with the research and extensive documentation that was needed; Father Renaurd West assisted with translating the application materials from Latin into English. Father Linsky said there were 117 specific questions that needed to be answered.
The entire process took about 18 months, which is unusually quick by Vatican standards, Father Linsky said.
"There is an overwhelming sense of awe at the honor we have received from Rome, and now that honor brings with it great responsibility," Father Linsky said after the Mass in an interview with The Catholic Miscellany, Charleston's diocesan newspaper.
"God has blessed us and we have done great things here, but now we must build for the future," he added. "Our overarching responsibility now is to build the kingdom of God here, build the faith of those who worship here and maintain the vibrancy here at St. Peter."
St. Peter was established in 1821 when Bishop John England sent Father Dennis Corkery to Columbia to minister to Irish laborers who were building the Columbia Canal. Construction of the original church started in 1824, and that building survived the burning of Columbia during the Civil War. The current church was built in 1907.
St. Peter is the only church in the Southeast, aside from one in Miami, to have hosted a papal visit. St. John Paul II visited the parish for an ecumenical prayer service during his trip to Columbia in September 1987.
Knauss is a reporter at The Catholic Miscellany, newspaper of the Diocese of Charleston.

BOSTON — The instinct to rally to the defense of a teammate is understandable and commendable. Trying to shirk responsibility and shift blame to the victim, however, is simply despicable, and the words of many of the Canucks on Tuesday were almost as disturbing as the sight of Nathan Horton being stretchered off the ice on Monday.
It wasn't particularly surprising to hear the Canucks steadfastly supporting defenseman Aaron Rome in the wake of his devastating hit on Horton early in Game 3 while meeting with the media at Boston University on Monday. That hit ended the season for both players, as Horton is out for the remainder of the Stanley Cup Final with a severe concussion and Rome was suspended for four games — the maximum that could remain in this series — for his late hit.
The Canucks disagreed with the league's decision to suspend Rome, feeling it was unwarranted and excessive.
"We don't agree with the call, but it's something we're going to have to deal with and move forward," Canucks forward Manny Malhotra said. "It was obviously a very severe suspension for the hit itself."
"It was a bang-bang hockey play," Malhotra added.
That's a debatable contention at best. Rome was clearly late with his hit, which came about a full second after Horton got rid of the puck with a pass over to Milan Lucic on the left wing. Horton was looking away when hit, but the NHL ruled it wasn't a blindside hit under Rule 48. There wasn't any doubt that Rome targeted the head though, and he also appeared to leave his feet to launch into Horton for the hit.
That's what replays from the broadcast show. The Canucks must have access to an alternative angle Zapruder-like film, because they saw something completely different.
"I do think at the end of the day also it was a north-south play, [Zdeno] Chara to Horton, he made a pass to Lucic," Vancouver coach Alain Vigneault said. "He was looking at his pass. Aaron was a tad late. Aaron isn't a dirty player, never has been, never will be. It was a hit that unfortunately turned bad."
And thus the subtle shift starts. The Canucks quickly went from supporting their teammate to shifting the blame to the victim. The fault, in their minds, lays with Horton for admiring his pass, while Rome came in just "a tad late."
Canucks captain Henrik Sedin went even further in exonerating Rome and putting Horton at fault.
"I don't think Romer really stepped up [to make the hit]," Sedin said. "He was standing still when he made the hit. It wasn't like he was skating full speed from the blind side. He was standing still. I thought it was more Horton that ran into him. Romer stepped up and made a good hit."
Canucks goalie Roberto Luongo, a former teammate of Horton's in Florida, had a similar take.
"It was borderline," Luongo said of Rome's hit. "It was a hockey play. Obviously [Horton] got hit in the head. From what I understand he was leaning into it. We don't feel it deserved a suspension."
"We all feel bad for Rome," Luongo added. "We don't feel he deserved what he got."
There were sentiments of concern for Horton's well being from most of the Canucks as well, but the Vancouver players also made sure to stress how distressing it was for Rome to miss the remainder of the series.
"It's devastating to be so close, to be playing in your dream, now to have it taken away," Malhotra said. "It obviously hurts a lot. But that being said, he was a huge part of our team. His attitude, his mentality, his focus, just being around the guys is going to help us a lot. Even though he won't be able to play, he's definitely going to be a big part, have a big impact on this team."
Rome himself may have had the most reasonable response, albeit in a prepared statement he released rather than meeting with the media to field questions about the hit and suspension.
"I want to express my concern for Nathan's well being and wish him a quick and full recovery," the statement read. "I try to play this game honestly and with integrity. As someone who has experienced this type of injury I am well aware of its serious nature and have no desire for another player to experience it. I will not take away my teammates' focus on the task at hand and intend to speak at an appropriate time in future."
The Bruins appeared to rally around the loss of Horton as they rolled to an 8-1 win on Monday. They'll try to win three more for him to complete their quest for the Cup, but the Canucks plan to use Rome's suspension as motivation as well.
"I think we're thinking of Rome right now," Daniel Sedin said. "He's a hard-working guy, great teammate and a friend. He's going to be out of the playoffs. It should be a rallying cry for us, too."
In reality, the suspension should serve as a strong message to try to stamp out such predatory head shots from the game. But if that's the message the league tried to send, the Canucks clearly didn't receive it.
"I know Aaron would never have those intentions to injure somebody," Malhotra said. "He's a hard-nosed player, very honest player. He obviously feels very bad that Nathan is in the state he is, but I don't think it will change his game. He's a very hard-working, honest player."
Based on his coach's reaction to the suspension, Rome isn't likely to be asked to change his game.
"In my opinion, it's not the right call," Vigneault said. "We're real disappointed the player got hurt, but it was a north/south play. It was a little bit late. But anybody that's played this game knows that you have to make a decision in a fraction of a second. He's engaged in the hit. I don't know how the league could come up with that decision really."
Actually, it should be much harder to understand how anyone could come up with a way to defend such a hit, blame the victim and still look at themselves in the mirror.
What are your thoughts on the Canucks defending Rome and shifting blame to Horton?

Report from Katrin, Scott's wife:
Three Moorfoot runners, Darin Dougal, Scott McDonald, and Alan Elder ran the Gala Harriers race on Sunday. It was an absolutely gorgeous day for it with temperatures around 20 degrees celsius. The race was a 2 lap course starting and ending on the track of Tweedbank Sports Centre. The field was fast and competitive, with a lot of Gala Harriers as well as other local running clubs taking part. Darin came 9th with a time of 37:29 (2nd M40), Scott was 11th with a time of 37:58 (4th M40). Alan came 27th place in a time of 44:14 (6th M40). Full results here: http://galaharriers.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Race-results-10k-8th-May-2016.pdf
Apart from the 10k race there was also a 3k race; a lot of the juniors took part in the 3k race and then helped at the finish of the 10k race, handing out medals, water and bananas. The beautiful weather had attracted quite a few spectators, and the atmosphere was very friendly. A good race was had by all.

Todays offer 360 days Premium time for £58.40.
Funny! Black Friday 2016 A year of premium was sold for $40 US here on NA I guess we will never see that again. It was not offered this Black Friday or on the Advent Calendar. The guy who offered that was probably fired lol.
50% last year, 15% today? Maybe someone made a mistake last year. 15 and 50 sound the same when said out load.

It seems I might actually be starting a THIRD writing project this year. No doubt, this is ambitious to say the least. And why would I start another series when my first just came out and my second is still in editing? Well, because the dreams won't go away. I'm not exaggerating either…three times in the last week the same dream has popped up which means I'm getting little to no sleep and am waking up grumpy. The only benefit is that having multiple dreams, with slightly different scenarios means I'm basically writing the plot out in my sleep.
What shall I do about this, when I'm already busy enough with other projects and life (there are two kids in this house…somewhere…)? And then it dawned on me – what about a writing calendar with a writing schedule? DUH! I'm sure many other writers do this very same thing, but I like to write when I feel passionate about a certain part in the story, when the house is quiet enough and well, when I feel like it. I don't use a schedule, and now that my schedule is crazy-busy, I need one.
Does this mean I must organize my life a bit more? Yes, yes I think it does. Ok, so many of us are familiar with Google Calendars and I use it already – not as often as I should, but I do know my way around them. But if you don't, I found this blog most helpful! Thank you Words on a page for the tips. Now what I need to do is figure out how best to manage my time between life (you know, parenting, chores, etc…) and writing. And now blogging. Plus there's research to be done too. And…and…a whole lot of other stuff I'm not prepared to remember just in my brain. Which is why I need a calendar. And a schedule. Yuck but necessary.
Now if only I could schedule my dreams…that would be perfect!

You want coaching? You got it!/
There's big demand for coaching these days. Not just from potential trainees and learners—but from trainers themselves. When you spend your time and energy coaching others, it's important to know how to give yourself a training boost, and then use those skills in your practice.
That's where The Institute for Performance and Learning comes in with a much-requested coaching session—and the first IPL event of 2017. Join speaker Nancy Priest for Actionable Conversations – Micro Coaching. Nancy is an award-winning designer with over 25 years of experience in organizational learning. She has worked with clients all over the world to create strategic solutions.
In this session participants will learn experientially how to probe for clarity, rather than jumping to solutions. The result: the person whose problem needs to be solved retains ownership of that problem, which in turn triggers the conversations that need to happen for successful implementation of the eventual solution.
Coaching conversations have many benefits. They can strengthen relationships, increase engagement and commitment, and heighten creativity and innovation.
So if you're intrigued by how you can use coaching conversations, stop by Sophos this Thursday for some engaging information, practical techniques, and an evening of high style!
When: Thursday February 23rd, 5:30 - 7:30pm

South Charlotte
Builder wants to add 44 townhouses in Ballantyne
Signaling a growing shift toward denser residential communities, a Charlotte-area developer recently requested city permission to build townhouses on a Ballantyne property zoned for single-family detached houses.
David Weekley Homes, based in Houston, wants to build as many as 44 townhouses on 5.5 acres on the north side of Endhaven Lane between North Community House Road and Misty Ridge Lane.
"We've seen an increase in multifamily (houses) being built ever since the end of the recession in 2010," said Charlotte planner Solomon Fortune. "For a while, single-family was the craze, but now it's gone toward multifamily."
Mark Gibbs, division president for David Weekley Homes, said the company was attracted to the site because of its location. The North Community House Road bridge over Interstate 485 is expected to be completed soon, which will connect residents in the new townhouses to nearby shopping, dining and entertainment venues in the greater Ballantyne area.
Gibbs said being in the greater Ballantyne area also will make the townhouses popular among buyers.
"The Ballantyne location is one of the most active ZIP codes in the country," he said, citing local job opportunities, high-end housing and recreational amenities nearby.
Gibbs said he also believes the new community will fill a demand in Ballantyne, which doesn't have a lot of newer townhouse communities.
Units will include three to four bedrooms and will be two and three stories tall. Interior amenities will include 10-foot first-floor ceilings, open floor plans, two-car garages and granite countertops. Prices have not been finalized.
Townhouses are attractive to a lot of different buyers because they offer a more maintenance-free lifestyle.
"They want a lock and leave environment," Gibbs said. "Someone takes care of the common areas so you can enjoy life and not have to worry about owning a lawnmower."
Gibbs said the development will be one of David Weekley Homes' largest new townhouse communities; some of the company's other new communities feature five to 26 units.
Gibbs said the company has held two meetings with nearby residents in Misty Ridge and Rougemont to provide details on the project.
Gibbs said some of the feedback he received was that residents want a tree buffer preserved along the property line and to make sure existing stormwater issues don't get worse.
Resident Alex Vuchnich of nearby Orchid Hill said his neighbors and he have known for a while that the property likely would be targeted for townhouses.
"I do not think that townhomes there would be a problem for density, though," he said.
The zoning public hearing is set for Nov. 17, with the City Council expected to make a decision in December.
Should the zoning change be approved, Gibbs said, he expects to break ground on the project next summer and begin construction next fall or winter. He said residents could move in by 2016.

Chris Miller couldn�t coach football at Elmira and watch his son play at Sheldon, so he had to make a tough decision.
Miller resigned as coach of the Falcons after six seasons that culminated with a Sky-Em League title and a trip to the Class 4A semifinals in the fall.
The Falcons went 9-1 in league play over the past two seasons and won two playoff games this year, their first postseason wins since 1997.
�I think I am leaving the program in better shape than it was and not just in terms of wins and losses,� said Miller, a 1987 Elmira graduate. �With the summer program and the equipment we have to use and we got the weight room going, whoever takes over will have a pretty good program with good athletes.�
Miller�s son, Chris, will be a sophomore at Sheldon next year.
�He�s really into football, and it came down to the fact that I don�t want to miss any of his games; I think later in life I would regret that,� Miller said. �I want to be able to watch him play, but it was still a pretty hard decision because we worked so hard to build that program up. I think Elmira will have a good team next year and for some years to come.�
Miller took over in 2006 when turnout was down for football, and the Falcons won one league game in his first two seasons. Elmira went 7-3 (3-3 in the Sky-Em) in 2008 and 2-8 in 2009.
The Falcons finished second in the league at 4-1 in 2010 and lost to Stayton in a �play-in� game.
They went undefeated in league play last season for their first Sky-Em title since 1991 and made the state playoffs for the first time since 2005 before losing to eventual state champion LaSalle to finish 11-2.

|Alice Tan Ridley
|Age (at audition)
|Position Reached
Alice Tan Ridley was a singer act from Season 5 of America's Got Talent. She was eliminated in the Semifinals.
Alice Tan Ridley was born in Georgia into a musical family of nine siblings, most of whom have become artists. She has been captivating audiences since she was three years old. After moving to New York in 1971, raising a family and teaching handicapped children in the NYC school system, Alice focused upon her singing career full time in 1992 when she began singing full time in the New York City subway stations – Union Square, 34th Street, and the famous 42nd Street Times Square station. Audiences gathered daily as Alice covered many songs such as 'I Will Always Love You', 'I Will Survive', 'Billy Jean', 'My Heart Will Go On', and other familiar favorites of the public. Her legendary subway performances – often stopping people dead in their tracks and rocking the station – resulted in a flurry of Youtube videos which continue to attract millions of viewers. Whenever Alice sang she consistently drew a sizable crowd, transfixed by her powerful voice, which surrounded her and fueled her with love and appreciation. She is known locally as the "New York City Subway Idol." A 2010 feature in the New York Post described her 'electrifying R&B act' after the author witnessed 'another rousing show in the Times Square underground'.
Many influential people were impressed after hearing her subway performance, which resulted in invitations to present concerts around the world, beginning with a singing tour of Morocco arranged by the Moroccan ambassador to the U.S. This was followed by performances in Argentina, Germany, Uruguay, The Netherlands, and throughout the USA. Alice's reputation spread by word of mouth. Her appeal is confirmed by her many honors. Alice sang 'Amazing Grace' in Rize, the David LaChappelle film about LA street dancers. She performed a soul stirring rendition of 'America the Beautiful' in the film Heights in 2005. In 2002 Alice appeared on 30 Seconds to Fame, a FOX Television talent competition, and won with her soulful rendition of 'Midnight Train to Georgia'. In 2007 Alice won an Emmy for her part in the documentary Military Families.
At a concert at the United Nations for the Women's Group, her voice was described as an "extraordinary instrument" of healing…with resonant overtones like a Tibetan singing bowl she opens the "chakras". She was one of the first artists to be commissioned by the MTA for their Performance in Public Spaces series after gaining a reputation as a master interpreter of popular songs with lyrical emotional depth. She embodies a rare combination of raw power, charm, sensuality, spirituality & pure funk.
In 2010, after 20 years of performing in subway stations, at the age of 58, she decided to take a leap of faith and audition for America's Got Talent. 1
Alice Tan Ridley's audition in Episode 504 consisted of singing "At Last." Piers Morgan, Sharon Osbourne, and Howie Mandel all voted "Yes," sending Alice to the Vegas Round.
https://youtu.be/EUJIFhye9Us <Audition
Vegas Round
Alice Tan Ridley was one of the Judges' Favorites in the Vegas Round. She was sorted into the "Female Singers" category. Her performance in Episode 511 consisted of singing "Proud Mary." Her audition was strong enough for the judges to send her to the Quarterfinals along with Debra Romer.
Alice Tan Ridley's Quarterfinals performance in Episode 515 consisted of singing "Midnight Train to Georgia." She received enough votes to be sent to the Semifinals in Episode 516 instead of Cheer SF and Iron Horse.
Alice Tan Ridley's Semifinals performance in Episode 527 consisted of singing "I Have Nothing." She finished in either fifth or sixth place in America's Vote. Piers Morgan and Sharon Osbourne both did not vote for her, eliminating her from the competition in Episode 528 instead of Studio One Young Beast Society.
- Alice Tan Ridley is the mother of Oscar-nominated actress Gabourey Sidibe.
- Alice won $25,000 during the pilot episode of 30 Seconds to Fame.

In its recent decision in Lancer Indem. Co. v JKH Realty Group, LLC, 2015 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 3293 (N.Y. 2d Dep't Apr. 22, 2015), [enhanced version available to lexis.com subscribers], the New York Appellate Division, Second Department, had occasion to consider the application of a parking lot exclusion.
Lancer insured JKH Realty Group, the owner of a shopping plaza, under a general liability policy. While the policy provided coverage for injuries happening at the insured's premises, the policy nevertheless excluded coverage for injuries "arising out of . . . [t]he ownership, maintenance or use of [a specified parking lot] or any property located on these premises; [or] Operations . . . necessary or incidental to the ownership, maintenance or use of those premises."
At issue in the coverage litigation was JKH Realty Group's right to coverage for a suit brought by the estate of an employee who worked at a Dunkin Donuts at the plaza. individual was in the process of taking trash out from the store to the dumpsters behind the store. While doing so, he fell through a defective manhole cover and into the leaching pool below, where he drowned. The manhole cover was in the paved area of the parking lot immediately adjacent to the Dunkin Donuts The manhole cover, and the leaching pool, were part of the premises' septic system.
Lancer argued that because the manhole cover was in the parking lot, the exclusion necessarily applied. The court disagreed, concluding that:
Since the allegedly defective manhole cover and leaching pool into which the decedent fell were part of the building's septic system, the decedent's claim arose out of operations necessary or incidental to the building, and not out of the "ownership, maintenance or use" of the rear parking lot.
In other words, because the individual was not injured in connection with any operations being performed in the parking lot, and was not injured as a result of the parking lot itself, but instead by the septic system, the court found the exclusion to be inapplicable.

The developer's response for limiting the game to 30fps was to "deliver an experience on par with the current generation of gaming platforms," a statement that did not resonate with gamers. The title recevied overwhelmingly negative reviews on Steam, with 67 percent of the 8,500 reviews citing performance issues. Features that were available on the PlayStation 4, such as rain shaders and Ambient Occlusion, were found to be missing from the PC port, which incensed gamers even further.
The incident has led to Rocksteady suspending sales of the game on Steam, with the studio issuing the following statement:
We want to apologize to those of you who are experiencing performance issues with Batman: Arkham Knight on PC. We take these issues very seriously and have therefore decided to suspend future game sales of the PC version while we work to address these issues to satisfy our quality standards. We greatly value our customers and know that while there are a significant amount of players who are enjoying the game on PC, we want to do whatever we can to make the experience better for PC players overall.
Thank you to those players who have already given valuable feedback. We are continuously monitoring all threads posted in the Official Batman: Arkham Knight Community and Steam forums, as well as any issues logged with our Customer Support (https://support.wbgames.com/hc/en-us). If you purchased your copy of the game and are not satisfied with your experience, then we ask for your patience while these issues are resolved. If desired, you can request a refund at https://help.steampowered.com (Steam refund policies can be found here: https://store.steampowered.com/steam_refunds) or the retail location where you purchased the game.
The Batman: Arkham fans have continually supported the franchise to its current height of success, and we want to thank you for your patience as we work to deliver an updated version of Batman: Arkham Knight on PC so you can all enjoy the final chapter of the Batman: Arkham series as it was meant to be played.
The Steam page for the game now shows the following message:
Sales of Batman: Arkham Knight have been temporarily suspended while Warner Brothers works to address performance issues.
At this stage, there's no indication as to when a patched version of the title (hopefully with better textures and no framerate lock) will be made available. We'll let you know once we hear more.

sometime last year we noticed a smashingly outfitted girl on facehunter sporting a fantastic necklace in the shape of a human heart. observe:
neat, right?
after a few months of quietly pining away for said necklace, we stumbled across paraphernalia, where a woman named vanda makes an eye-boggling assortment of really unique, dark, quirky necklaces and pins, including the above pictured heart. i bought it right away, and continue to ogle the sleuth camera necklace to this very day. most of the jewelry is between $20 and $30, which is not bad at all when you imagine this massively talented woman hunched over her kitchen table with a pen and a magnifying glass (whether or not this is an accurate representation of her artistic process, we still think her stuff is pretty damn special) handcrafting a super awesome conversation starter, just for you.
support small businesses. save the world's economy. look nice.

Back to school
There's something new in the air. School has started back up again, and there's been all kinds of activity and energy going on. Aisles in stores are packed with school supplies and lists for classes. TV commercials highlight all things back to school. Kids and parents are out buying new clothes, shoes and backpacks. Parents race down the street, hoping to get their kids to school on time, or pack up their college kids and head out. I can't help but feel the excitement. It's a new year. Even though it's still summer, it's a brand new year.
I remember loving that feeling of starting a new year of school. I was going into a whole new grade. This meant I had grown up from just a few months before. I wondered who I would sit next to in class. What would my teachers be like. Would I make new friends. Who would I have a crush on. Even though I would probably be seeing a lot of the same kids I saw last year, somehow every year was completely new. In college, everything was even more intensified. I could hardly sleep the night before the first day of school. It was mix of fear and excitement. The possibility of something new, of somehow being something new.
It was nice having school years divided up by a long summer break. Each year was distinct, with a clear beginning and end, along with a knowledge and a comfort of going on to the next year. There are things we learn in each level of school—knowledge that prepares us for the next level of learning. Once we get out of school, it's not quite so easy to distinguish where we're at. What we choose to do in our lives involves lots of stages and changes, but they aren't so clearly defined or mapped out for us. Sometimes it takes years to be able to look back and see what the chapters in our lives have been, when they happened, and how long they were.
I must have been picking up on all of this going on around me over that last few weeks, because I see that I am right smack in the middle of a learning mode myself right now. Everywhere I turn are books I want to read, webinars, video series to follow, blogs to catch up on, more books.* There seems to be amazing information coming into my radar from all around me. It's almost overwhelming. I'm not sure how I'll keep up or get it all ingested and absorbed. But what I do know is that something new is coming in. I don't know what it's all about, what I'm going to learn or where it will lead me, but I'm open. And I'm excited. And I don't even have to take the bus.
In anticipation,

Jimmy Young dies
By Chris Cooke | Published on Tuesday 8 November 2016
BBC radio veteran Jimmy Young has died aged 95. A spokesperson for his family said that the former DJ died "peacefully at home" on Monday afternoon with his wife Alicia by his side. One of the original DJs at Radio 1 when it launched in 1967, Young moved to Radio 2 six years later and continued to present for the BBC station until his retirement in 2002.
Prior to his radio career, Young enjoyed success as a singer, being signed to Polygon Records and then Decca in the 1950s. He had most success recording versions of US hits for the British market, as was common at the time, and scored two number ones in 1955 with his versions of 'Unchained Melody' and 'The Man From Laramie', both linked to movies that came out that year.
Paying tribute to Young yesterday, BBC radio chief Bob Shennan said: "He was a truly unique broadcaster who pioneered a form of presenting that generations have followed. He made current affairs relevant to millions of listeners and helped shape Radio 2 into the station it is today".
Meanwhile Tony Blackburn – who was just last month paying tribute to another original Radio 1 presenter, Dave Cash – told the BBC: "Jimmy was a legendary broadcaster, there at the very start of Radio 1 and then, for so long, the voice of Radio 2. 2016 has been a terrible year for losing iconic figures from our youth. Today we lost another".
