Jimmy and I had a wonderful time this past weekend shooting our first downtown Chicago wedding! We weren't sure what to expect on Saturday since we had never met Brittany and Kevin before (They studied law at Tulane and currently live in New Orleans!) but they had a gorgeous wedding day! The weather was perfect and as the day went on, every location we shot at got better and better, making their Same Day Edit so fun to piece together!
Brittany and Kevin both got ready at Palmer House located downtown Chicago.
After getting ready, we left Palmer House and hopped onto the trolley with the wedding party. We then drove around to take offsite location pictures (and video in our case!). Chicago is such a beautiful city!
Their ceremony and reception were held at Pazzo's @ 311. Saturday was the first time we had ever shot a wedding at Pazzo's and we are absolutely in love with all of the natural light that this venue has to offer! The towering palm trees added a nice touch to Brittany and Kevin's ceremony, and it almost felt as if we were down in New Orleans! :)
In an earlier post I shared my idea of using the seating cards that we receive at weddings as a part of our own wedding. Brittany saw that post and had seating cards made specifically for us to use! We thought that was awesome and we are so happy to include that little piece of their day in our own!
And if you haven't seen their Same Day Edit yet, check it out!
Also, I wanted to mention that we had a wonderful day working with the photographers that we have chosen for our own wedding! ;) I'll talk more about them on Thursday, so check back in a couple of days!! (SOOOO EXCITED!!!!)

Partners in Education - Taking Down the Awnings
Since the 1960's, downtown Columbia has featured the awnings, but now they are being taken down.
"We'd be more successful if you had the streetscape without those heavy looking concrete awnings," Mayor Darwin Hindman said.
The Villager has been downtown for 10 years. When it came, the awnings had already been there for two decades. The current owner has been downtown for four years and has a strong opinion.
"The awnings tend to shade the stores and you can't see the storefront," Vern Kelsey said. "The storefront is really important because that's where you have your displays and can show what you're really about."
Shoppers have enjoyed the awnings for protecting them from the harsh Missouri weather. A shopper downtown gives the other side of the argument on why she likes the awnings.
"I think it'll affect shopping on bad weather days, at least for me," Michelle LeBlanc said. "I'm not going to want to come and get covered in snow and wet and icky."
People have strong opinions on why they like or dislike the awnings. One thing is for sure, the awnings will be coming down.

Photography Track
God is faithful in using our passions as a form of reaching the unreached and serving Him. This was proven true to me in the last few weeks of our time in Ethiopia. Since I was young, I have been interested in shooting fashion and working with models. This is something I have pursued for the past few years but I would have never imagined that I would be attending Ethiopian Fashion Week and shooting headshots for model portfolios on outreach in Africa. I have so much appreciation for a DTS that creates space for art as outreach. I can see now that God uses the space we give Him to drop opportunities right in front of us.
We were walking the streets of downtown Addis Ababa scouting out stylishly dressed individuals to photograph for a street style series with the hopes of starting a good conversation. We approached a girl dressed up who told us she was heading to a fashion show tonight. She invited us to meet her at the venue. Dressed in our thoroughly worn and stained clothing, we decided to attend the event full of stylish Africans designers, models and business people. The fashion show opened up opportunities for us to meet models and the organizer of the event to arrange for our outreach band to play the following night.
With our whole team prepped in our extremely creative outfits pulled together from each others more stylish pieces, we headed out to take on Ethiopia Fashion Week. As the band played we had conversations with attendees and captured moments of the event. Iwas so fortunate to meet some of the models and set up times for photoshoots.
Kiya and Bethlehem are models who are striving to work internationally. They captured my attention immediately with their striking appearances. Our plans came together and I was excited to have Shelby, a makeup enthusiast, along to help with makeup for the shoot. It was such a cool opportunity to serve these girls with our interests and abilities. The shoot was improvised to say the least. Makeup was done in the bathroom of a cafe and after being kicked out of the cafe, makeup was done on the streets where men peed. Africa places you in some unique situations. Despite all of the unusual circumstances, the photoshoot was a success and great images were produced for all of our portfolios.
The most meaningful moment during this whole experience was the relationship I developed with one of the models. Over Ethiopian coffee we talked about dreams, aspirations, religion, faith and Jesus. She shared with me her hardships and together we prayed as tears streamed down her face as the power of the holy spirit worked in her heart. This moment, sitting in the cafe, across from my new friend, speaking to our God with honesty was a specific point during outreach that especially stands out to me. It was the moment that gave me faith that God gave us our interests for a purpose and that He desires to use them for his glory when we offer them to Him.

Not even hocus pocus can erase this choice of words.
Bette Midler expressed regret Thursday after calling women the "N-word of the world" in a controversial tweet — and prompting social media backlash.
"Angrily I tweeted w/o thinking my choice of words would be enraging to black women who doubly suffer, both by being women and by being black. I am an ally and stand with you; always have. And I apologize," Midler wrote.
The 72-year-old actress blamed the "brief investigation of allegations against (Supreme Court nominee Brett) Kavanaugh" for her actions.
Her since-deleted tweet referenced a 1972 song written by John Lennon and Yoko Ono.
Part of the lyrics in the once-contentious 1972 song Midler was referring too are, "Woman is the n----r of the world, yes she is. If you don't believe me take a look to the one you're with. Woman is the slave to the slaves. Yes she is, if you believe me, you better scream about it."
'"Women, are the n-word of the world. Raped, beaten, enslaved, married off, worked like dumb animals; denied education and inheritance; enduring the pain and danger of childbirth and life IN SILENCE for THOUSANDS of years They are the most disrespected creatures on earth," Midler wrote in the tweet.
In another deleted tweet, she said song she was referring to "rang true then, and it rings true today, whether you like it or not. This is not about race, this is about the status of women; THEIR HISTORY."
Even though the Divine Miss M deleted the N-word tweet and subsequent follow-up, Twitter users still were able to savage them and share with the world.
"So first Bette Midler pretends black women don't exist, and then tries to tell us to get out our feelings and that it's not about race when she's literally the one who brought race up???" one user tweeted.
"I was afraid Bette Midler was dead but it's worse. She's erasing Black women's experiences in pursuit of her own agenda," another Twitter user wrote.

Happy New Year to all of you out there! Hope you had a good start to it, I know that the eve itself can sometimes be a huge let down, that's the problem with building things up and trying to enforce celebration, sometimes it can all turn to custard. Not this time for me however. I had one of the best New Years Eve I have ever had. I also had the photos to show you but I accidentally deleted them, hmm – there was much grumbling and groaning in the household this morning when I discovered that fact I can tell you.
Happy, good-hearted people, liberal quantity's of alcohol, a damned good sound system, a huge outdoor fire and balmy weather made the night a massive success. It was also wonderful for me as I had the most extraordinary conversations with people, strange, delightful and hilarious, and mostly with people I had only met that night. To top it all off we had a full blue moon which only comes around once every couple of years. According to Wikipedia the next blue moon will be in eighteen years time, when there will also be a total lunar eclipse Hope I am around to see it – although I will be sixty-five and that will be more that enough to celebrate.
Many of my friends are initiating big changes in their lives this year. At last count there were ten of them who, either singularly or as couples, are moving overseas or to other parts of N.Z. And adding to that total will be ourselves, heading back to the U.K. at the end of May to live and work and travel. Where we will settle this time is still up in the air as it really depends on where Mr T can find a job (despite the recession there are still jobs for bus drivers), but at the beginning it will be back to good old Swansea and our bestest UK friends Julian and Kath -the added bonus of being there this year will be attending their wedding in September.
I owe this new opportunity to venture out into the world to my return to good health. I now feel certain that with a bit of luck, I will be able to work and help to fund lots of travelling. And let's face it – I am very lucky!
I am also HUGELY EXCITED about the move – BUT, am trying hard to stay in the present and enjoy where I am now, in this beautiful country, with these beautiful people, and make the most of it. My oldest friend and her family are leaving in just over a weeks time to live in Whangarei, which is right at the top of the North Island, about 12 hours drive away, and we are having them to our place for a b.b.q this Saturday night. Although I will miss her a lot, I'm not really upset that she is going. The more I've travelled the more I have realised that the world is actually a small place and we will meet again – apparently they will be in the UK this December;-)
And I tell you what – I hope the British weather goblins have saved some snow for next Yule – or there will be trouble!
Summer Solstice/Christmas presents
My best Solstice present was a ring made of a computer key – how about commenting and telling me what yours was?

Thanks so much to Simon Cantlon and Ungie Davila for putting this spectacular event on and thanks for having Leah and her J-Walkers play. This thing can only get bigger and bigger. "
- LEAH O'HAHA, recording artist

text: Contact! __________________ PRTA Presents: Contact! A Project Reality Tournament We are thrilled to announce PRTA's Project Reality tournament Contact!. The aim of this tournament is to provide a competitive, friendly, and enjoyable tournament experience for everyone wanting to join. Our aim is to set up two teams; with commanders who will build, oversee and command teams fighting bi-weekly to be the best in PR. We decided to create this tournament because, as some of you may know, the PRT has come to an end and will be ended indefinitely. This means there will be no true competitive PR going on. PRTA is looking to continue the tradition and fill that void. The PRT has been the source of the true form of Project Reality for a long time. With emphasize on cooperation, teamwork, command, leadership and camaraderie. Contact will strive to reach the same standard as the previous PRT! How will it work? To start off, there will be two teams, fighting over the course of 2 preparation and 7 regular battles. Battles will occur every other week with teams getting points added towards their total based on their performance. The preparation battles will not count towards winning the tournament, but give teams the ability to fix any problems they may have before the official start of the tournament. What factions and maps would we play? This will not be like your conventional PR game. We will use vanilla maps with custom assets pre-determined to ensure balance. So you might see Israel vs China on Muttrah with both sides having a tank or Germany vs France on Kashan with 6 tanks on each team. These are just two of the thousands of possibilities we have to work with. All the maps are made in an easy to download file which is available for for everyone to download and install. What are the victory conditions? While the victory of the battle is decided by who has more tickets, the tournament victor will be determined by total amount of points, which can be achieved from taking flags as well as winning the battle. More information can be found here. What does the winner get? You get absolutely nothing except bragging rights and fond memories of the time you had playing. Teams and commanders [BGB] Battle Group Bravo [RIF] Rapid Interdiction Force SCO - Woxbel - Netherlands SCO - Cassius23 - Poland CO - DesertFox - Croatia CO - Mattytoosack - USA Signups Want to contribute to the tournament? Apply here. Interested in taking up a leadership role in one of the teams? Apply here. Want to become a grunt and play in the battles with your favorite kit? Apply here. Map download You will find the Contact! map pack installer here. Credits We would like to give a huge thank you to all our technical, media and administrative contributors who have worked to realise this project! Not to name everyone, but you know who you are, a huge thanks again for making this possible.

Library for reading and writing PDF files.
PDF files can be opened and all PDF objects are available as Smalltalk objects, which can be manipulated in any way you like. Likewise, any Smalltalk PDF object (net) can be written out as conforming PDF file.
The library implements the PDF specification (ISO standard PDF 32000-1:2008) in Cincom's VisualWorks Smalltalk.
The syntax and basic machinery is covered comprehensively, which let's you read any PDF file and write any PDF object in a conforming way.
The library is for programmers who want full control over all details of PDFs.
The current version is version 2.0 from October 2017. See the release notes for details.
The licence is MIT.
PDF objects are typically dictionaries or arrays. The object types and their attributes are well documented by the PDF Specification. The library defines many PDF objects as Smalltalk objects (and it is easy to add more PDF types).
The code is as close to the specification as possible. The names of types and attributes are directly used for the implementation when appropriate. When studying the PDF specification (a nice read in most parts!), it is easy to find the relevant implementation in the library.
The library code is annotated with the original descriptions and definitions from the specification, so that learning about PDF itself is well supported.
Included is a UI tool to inspect PDFs: the PDFExplorer (internal version of the PDFtalkSnooper application).
The slides "PDF in Smalltalk" (a talk at ESUG 2011), give an overview of what this project is about.
Load the {PDFtalk Project} bundle from the Cincom Public Store into your VisualWorks image.
Try the demos and examples.
Read the documentation.
To get the latest news and to participate in discussions, subscribe to the mailing list.
Values A base library for immutable complex objects facilitating functional programming.
RDF The implementation of the W3C Recommendation RDF 1.1 XML Syntax.
PDFtalk for Gemstone The port of the library to Gemstone Smalltalk. A talk about this was held at ESUG 2017: "PDFtalk for Gemstone" (slides are here).
Gemstone Fileout A VisualWorks to Gemstone translation tool. This tool, with project specific code transformation declarations, creates a Gemstone filein. Used to create the Gemstone PDFtalkLibrary from the Values package and PDFtalk bundle.
The projects above are open source with MIT licence.
PDFtalkSnooper Stand-alone UI tool to inspect PDFs. This is the packaged version of the internal PDFExplorer.
The tool is free, but not open-sourced.
The slides "PDF in Smalltalk" from the ESUG 2011 talk give an overview.
The slides "PDFtalk for Gemstone" from the ESUG 2017 talk.
The project was discussed in a podcast (German) from Smalltalk Inspect (mentioned in Joachims Small World).
Bob Nemec is using the library to build a report generator!

Game Over: Morimoto has always been the benchmark when it came to the Mini H1…But no matter how many imitations popped up over the years, they just couldn't compare, and now it's most certainly too late to catch up. The 7.0 represents the most massive overhaul in Mini H1 history.
Lucky #7: Let's keep it simple and make a list of everything new about the 7.0. The optically clear lens. The 7-signed metal lens holder. The side-push bi-xenon solenoid mechanism. The die-cast radically curved cutoff shield. The foreground limiter. The reflector bowl. The IR, high-temp resistant reflector finish. The threaded shaft and it's precision and added length. The results! The beam is wider. The distribution of light more proper. Your ability to see is better.
Easy to Install: Now even easier to install with a longer threaded shaft compared to the 6.0! Their amazing ease of installation relative to the amount of performance they produce makes them our most popular projector. Simply remove headlight lens, insert the threaded mounting shaft through the pre-existing hole in the back of the reflector, hand-tighten, check rotation, tighten, and re-seal headlights. Minimal cutting involved. (if any!) Check out the Installation Procedure linked above.
Performance Shootout: With the most modern optics, an optically clear lens, and their curved cutoff shield; The 7.0 will outshine almost every OEM HID projector on the market and go head to head with the legendary S2000 projectors! (which cost 3x as much, are much harder to retrofit, and don't even have a high beam) Their wide, uniformly lit low beam stays intense all the way to the outer limits. Their bi-xenon high beam provides an insane amount of additional light on demand.
Standard Equipped: With your choice of either Mini Gatling Gun or Mini Graphite shrouds to keep things compact and easy to assemble. Full size shrouds are also compatible with the Mini's using the centric rings.
Optional Precision Bulb Holders: Designed by Morimoto in California, the new MotoHo1der utilizes a three-piece design that's way more effective but virtually no bigger overall than the old clip setup. The clever three-piece design provides even pressure on the back of the bulb, ensuring perfect alignment. To be honest, we think it's the single best upgrade to the projector that's ever been conceived since it helps make the most of the awesome 7.0's on the road. Well worth the extra few bucks in the grand scheme of things!

The Entrepreneurs Fellowship Program is designed to address the skills gap in those aged 18-30 who are looking to enter entrepreneurship, build startups and develop businesses in Palestine. The program comprises two four-month fellowship cycles for 40 participants per cycle.
The first part of the program is a month of workshops and master classes on business skills and a range of subjects relating to entrepreneurship and the tech sector. The second component of the program is a three-month sponsored membership to CONNECT (see below). The purpose of this membership is to supplement and consolidate the training provided during the first month of the program. Fellows will be offered the opportunity to join a collaborative ecosystem of entrepreneurs and freelancers in a workspace that is fully equipped to support the development of new businesses
A shared workspace and community hub for Palestinian entrepreneurs and freelancers from the tech sector, CONNECT allows members to interact and collaborate with like-minded peers to foster creativity and innovation. CONNECT is located in the heart of Rawabi's vibrant tech community and combines high-end IT infrastructure with shared and private workspaces, flexible leases, virtual office technologies, equipment, business guidance and networking opportunities.
The Foundation partners with Massar International on the Massarak Program, a pioneering work-study initiative offering internships to local and international university students. The program allows students to apply theoretical knowledge in a hands-on working environment, whilst learning valuable skills that can help with their future employment opportunities. Interns receive monthly stipends and are placed according to their field of study within Massar International's network of 30+ subsidiaries. The program places a strong emphasis on equal gender opportunities.
Massarak Local
Designed to specifically serve Palestinian university students and recent graduates. These young trainees bring energy and vitality to the workplace and in return are able to explore their chosen field under the guidance of seasoned professionals. Participating students also undertake specialized training courses to augment their learning experience.
Since its inception, more than 350 students and graduates have participated in the program, 60 percent of whom have been female. 70 percent of the interns are subsequently hired for permanent positions at companies within Massar International.
Massarak International
Placing students pursuing advanced degrees from leading international universities within a Massar group company or affiliate for three months. The program is an opportunity for these companies to benefit from the assistance of highly qualified students specialized in various fields whilst giving international students the opportunity to work in a truly unique environment and learn more about Palestine.
The program has been running since 2013 and in that time it has hosted more than 100 students from leading universities including Harvard Business School, Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government; Tufts University; Yale University; Georgetown University; Dartmouth's Tuck School of Business; Cornell University; the University of Oxford; the University of Cambridge; King's College London; and the London School of Economics.
Massarak International provides international interns with comfortable accommodations, a monthly stipend and reimburses travel costs to and from Palestine.
The Foundation has established an endowment to provide scholarships to high-achieving, underprivileged Palestinian students to offset tuition costs. Students from villages, towns and refugee camps throughout the West Bank and Gaza who would not otherwise have the opportunity to complete their studies are now able to matriculate to universities
As part of its bid to promote culture and knowledge sharing, the Foundation is hosting weekly public lectures in Rawabi. Topics that are covered include entrepreneurship, technology, marketing, social media, healing, arts, social justice, culture, music, science, and others. The sessions will be led by a different speaker, each an expert in their field and will be free to attend.
The Active Living Initiative is structured to support healthy lifestyles and promote well-being for all ages. The Foundation installed outdoor exercise equipment throughout the city of Rawabi; all are safe, weather-proof and free for public use. A program was launched which provided regular weekly exercise classes, including Zumba, yoga and pilates, each under the supervision of a certified trainer. Dabke, karate and ballet classes will also be available soon.
The Foundation is also working on establishing a sports center with an international standard basketball court. The multi-use court will be able to accommodate volleyball, hockey, tennis, soccer games, and other sports activities
The Palestine of our parents' generation was lush with fruit orchards and blossoming trees - olive, oak, citrus, nut and evergreens covered the Palestinian landscape. Today, however, the natural beauty of the land is being lost to the ravages of war, neglect, construction and climate change.
As part of its support for conservation and protection of the environment, the Rawabi Foundation launched "Grow for a Greener Palestine", a tree planting and community greening initiative, conceived to help restore Palestine's natural forests and protect natural habitats. Thus far, the program has planted more than 10,000 trees with the support of philanthropists, students and community activists from all over the world.
You can support our tree planting initiative by buying a tree of your selection via this link:
The Foundation and Qatra Water Resources Company are collaborating on an initiative to increase water conservation awareness and provide scarce water resources to schools in need. The project involves building rainwater harvesting cisterns at a school in Deir Sudan, a village that suffers from serious water shortages which are affecting the running of the school.
As part of the project, the Foundation will work with Qatra to develop and run an educational curriculum on water conservation at the school in Deir Sudan and at Rawabi English Academy. Construction of a school garden in the village and a community garden in Rawabi, fed by surplus harvested rainwater, will contribute to the children's education about the environment and the importance of conserving water
Rawabi is a multi-faith city, with residents celebrating a wide range of religious holidays including Christmas, New Year, Easter, Ramadan, Eid Al-Fiter and Eid Al-Adha. The city embraces the free practice of all religious traditions and extends its welcome to all faiths great and small, including the Palestinian Samaritan community
To promote cultural and social ties between Rawabi and the international community, the Rawabi Foundation is working to forge strong ties between Rawabi and cities around the world. City twinning is an effective means of meeting and connecting with people from different backgrounds and cultures.

The University of Louisiana Debate Team returned early Tuesday morning from a highly successful performance at the Georgia State University National Debate Tournament, the largest Fall semester policy debate tournament in the nation.
The tournament attracted over 180 debate teams from around the nation, including Harvard, Cal-Berkeley, Georgetown, Texas, Emory and Wake Forest. As the only policy debate program from the State of Louisiana, UL debaters defeated teams from Vanderbilt, Samford, Central Florida, Miami, West Georgia, Georgia, and Florida.
This was the first college debate tournament for the UL freshmen debaters. Junior Varsity debaters Kari and Ashley Fleming advanced on a 4-2 preliminary rounds record to quarterfinals. In quarterfinals, they defeated the 2nd seed University of Wisconsin debate team. Junior varsity debaters Nicholas Roszczynialski and Ian Sorensson advanced to quarterfinals with a 5-1 record, in quarterfinals, defeating a team from Samford to advance. Unfortunately, the two UL teams were pitted against each other in the semi-final round, where Roszczynialski and Sorensson advanced to finals based on their preliminary rounds record and the Fleming sisters were awarded third place in the tournament. Roszczynialski and Sorensson were defeated in the final round by Samford University's top team. Having taken only two teams to the first national tournament of the year, UL's success continued to demonstrate academic excellence in the face of economic adversity.
This year's national debate topic addresses United States immigration policy. The UL debate team's affirmative case in favor of visas for undocumented victims of domestic abuse went undefeated throughout the tournament. UL debaters were successful on the negative side of the proposition by arguing that unchecked immigration creates environmental damage in addition to arguing that many temporary worker visa programs are masking forms of neocolonialism.
Debate program director and head coach is Dr. Scott Elliott, and graduate coaching assistant coaches are Judson Eldredge and Avery Henry. The UL Debate team is open to any undergraduate student. Students interested in joining the debate team can contact Dr. Scott Elliott by clicking here.

Formal Stripes
I was luckily enough to grab this top from a friend before she ultimately donated it to Goodwill. It was one of those tops that you don't pass up. It was a long sleeve Gap top with the softest material ever- but it fit a little snug especially in the sleeve area with my arms being tree length and all. Well, leave it to me to be excited to cut up some shirts and work my diy magic- this time it was easy. I loved the girly feel the small sized stripes & overall silhouette of the top and thought it would be essential to pair it with dark but girly skirt. What better than an a-line leather skirt with amazing dimple details?! Soft but edgy and chic, which literally defines my whole wardrobe. I'm looking forward to some major d.i.y in the coming months! Stay tuned for videos too!

RE: High school Adult
This question is a follow up to question 32874
If a player makes a pass to his teammate that is in an offside position, but a defender tries to intercept the pass before it reaches the receiving teammate, but the defender completely misses the ball, (makes no contact with the ball at all), but is clearly attempting to play it, does this attempt still negate the offside by rule, or is it necessary for the defender to actually play the ball, (make contact with it), to negate the offside by rule. I have heard different answers to this question. What is the correct answer??
Hi Mark The defender must deliberately play the ball for offside to be reset. A rebound, deflection and of course a complete miss of the ball does not reset offside. Any opinions to the contrary are incorrect.
HI Mark, the defender must make deliberate contact with the ball to reset an opposing PIOP status thus freeing him to play the ball ! A deflection, rebound or a deliberate save will NOT reset, and if there is NO touch at all then, nothing has changed the PIOP restricted status from the last team mates' touch thus NOT freeing him to play the ball. Cheers
Hi Mark, Not only must the defender actually touch the ball in order to negate the possibility of an offside offence, they must deliberately play the ball (except for a deliberate save). If the ball is either missed completely or merely deflects or rebounds from the opponent, it does not affect the consideration of offside. Anybody who tells you that an attempt to play the ball, where the defender completely fails to touch the ball, can reset offside, is wrong.

Against the backdrop of an epidemic in Kern County, The Valley Fever for Americas Foundation is hosting a fundraiser Wednesday to drum up funding for a cure to the debilitating respiratory disease endemic to the region.
Valley fever survivors and advocates will be at Dagny's Coffee Company between 9 a.m. and noon selling awareness T-shirts, then head to John's Incredible Pizza between 5 and 8 p.m. for a fundraiser.
Proceeds of sales will go to researchers in Arizona, who are developing Nikkomycin Z, a promising medication that has cured valley fever in lab rats.
Researchers have declared it an epidemic year in Kern County, with some experts anticipating close to 2,000 cases by 2017. Meanwhile, Arizona kicked off its Valley Fever Awareness Week Saturday, spreading the word about the little-known respiratory disease.
Valley fever starts with breathing. When soil is disturbed by construction, agriculture or wind, the valley-fever-causing coccidioides fungal spores whip into the air.
If inhaled, those spores become lodged in the lungs. Sometimes the body fights the infection and a person can develop an immunity to the disease, which is the case for most people. But in other cases, the spores take root and move from the lungs to other organs, leading to a lifetime of health problems and, in rare cases, death.
Despite being endemic to Kern County, the disease gets little attention and doctors still misdiagnose valley fever for pneumonia or bronchitis.
Awareness is the key to fighting the disease, said Sandra Larson, a former executive director of the Valley Fever for Americas Foundation.
"The easiest way to get involved is to wear your valley fever shirt Wednesday and post it on social media — a shirt selfie — and get a conversation started about the symptoms and how serious the illness can be," Larson said.
John's Incredible Pizza is at 3709 Rosedale Highway, and Dagny's Coffee Company is at 1600 20th St.

Remote Power brings utility Challenges
If you face challenges on remote circuits, contact us today to see if distributed energy can provide a cost effective alternative:
Capital Expense: To replace aging equipment, capital budgets are in many cases growing , such as re-conductoring aging circuits and addressing ongoing pole inspection and replacement. Distributed energy can reduce these and upstream capital expenses when loading on transformers, sub-stations, and feeders are reduced.
Power Purchase: Distributed energy systems reduce wholesale energy purchase costs, and in many cases demand costs depending on the load.
Operations and Maintenance Costs: Remote circuits located far from service yards can demand significant truck roll-time to reach remote outage or maintenance sites. As systems age, costs can grow. DES can develop joint O&M plans as well as monitoring of distributed energy systems.
Vegetation Management and Liability for Fire Starts: A number of rural utilities have been on the losing end of lawsuits over fire starts, increasing both utility tree trimming and insurance costs. Even then trees outside the utility right-of-way fall into distribution lines themselves or through a domino effect. Distributed energy eliminates remote power lines through forested areas, reducing these costs and liabilities.
Line Loss: I2R losses often add up 24/7. They are greatest on remote circuits powering large loads at lower voltages with smaller conductors. Distributed energy systems reduce or eliminate line loss.
Rights-of-Way: At times, extending circuits across private, tribal, or public lands can require significant permitting resources and cost. Avoiding extension of remote power lines over land owned by third parties can eliminate these costs.
Reliability & Customer Service: Distributed energy can vastly improve reliability for end-of-the-line loads, greatly improving uptime and customer service.
If you or your business have remote power needs that require costly grid upgrades, or diesel generators requiring frequent maintenance, contact us today. We optimize solutions for remote business loads, determining the most cost-effective distributed energy systems for your power needs. Contact us today for a free consultation.

The 12 Apostles
Picture of the Day 04.12.2015
What a great day! I survived driving on the wrong side of the road, saw some kangaroos and also the most beautiful beaches in the world. So I picked up my car in Melbourne this morning and after getting lost for a bit I was underway to the Great Ocean Road. It is just unbelievably beautiful here, I'm still in awe. Driving on the wrong side was a bit weird at first but after a while I think I've got the hang of it. At least I don't turn on the wipers every single time I try to indicate. In total I spent about 10 hours on the road today and saw everything from beaches over forests and even some really cool roos on the side of the road. Ok this post is quite chaotic but I'm really tired and blown away....so I'm going to have to write a serious post on the whole road in a couple of days. Right now I'm in Port Campbell near to the Apostles and will continue on the road tomorrow before heading back and up the cost.

Adelaide Dad: Being a dad blogger in the city
The three Elliot children - Finley (5), Lilly (3) and baby Sam – will not have to look through old albums or VHS tapes to rekindle their childhood memories. They just have to go online. for their father Geordie Elliot is one of the few dad bloggers
(blogging about parenthood from a father's perspective) in Adelaide. Through his blog, adelaidedad.com Geordie records his sometimes fun, sometimes frustrating, but always blessed journey through parenthood. The blog and its Instagram account with numerous fun and happy pictures aim to encourage other fathers to embrace and celebrate their own fatherhood.
The pull of writing:
Geordie was, by his own admission, "a lot cooler" when he was younger. "I used to take photographs at music concerts, and write about them. Soon, I started getting opportunities to write for a few glossy magazines back home in the United Kingdom," says the 36-year-old.
Slowly adulthood came knocking, followed by parenthood, pushing creative writing and photography to the side. But, every now and then Geordie still felt the pull of creative expression. That's when he stumbled upon the idea of starting a blog that chronicled his experiences as a new dad.
Lack of dad blogs :
"I did some research and found out that there were numerous parenting blogs written by mothers from their perspective, but not much written by fathers. And, it is important to understand that the parenting approaches and experiences of mothers and father are unique and different. So, I decided to start one last year. It has been a wonderful way of recording our journey as a family," he says.
Geordie usually gets an idea for a blog from the varied conversations he has with others. "Speaking to other parents reminds me of the different kinds of parenting and experiences that exist. That sets me thinking and I end up writing about them," he says.
Overwhelming response:
The dad of three points out that he was quite surprised at the overwhelming response his blog and Instagram handle received. "Many of my friends who are fathers themselves have been extremely supportive. Nowadays, fathers are more open than they were in the past to speak about their personal parenting experiences. They are not afraid to be vulnerable. Recently, I did a round table with some local dads. We spoke about the good and the bad parts of parenting, and the learnings were extremely informative. It is nice to know that the blog has helped fathers to speak about their personal experiences and not feel shy about it," adds Geordie.
Though Geordie has written numerous blogs, one blog post, in particular, manages to stand out. "It was a post articulating a conversation I had with a close friend who had just become a father. He was overwhelmed by the love he felt for his new baby, and the 'daddy' hormones were kicking in! Becoming a dad can really change a person and that conversation got me writing about the time our first baby came along. That was a special post," he says.
Interestingly, Geordie has found admirers among non-parents as well. "I have had a few friends at work tell me they love my blog, even though they don't have kids! The blog has been great for meeting people and sharing stories. I would have never dreamed of having half-a-dozen guys at my house for pizza to talk about kids, but it was a great experience," he adds.
Geordie's blog has encouraged a few fathers to do the same. "Though I don't know many who have started blogging, I do see many dads taking to Instagram, posting pics of their kids, and talking about their life experiences and events," he points out. He also adds that his journey as a blogger would have been incomplete without the support of his wife. "She has done what she always does when I get an idea into my head – encourage and support me," says Geordie.
Geordie was born in the United Kingdom and moved to Adelaide after marrying a beautiful Australian girl! They lived in the UK for five years before deciding to move to Australia in search of a bit more sun. Geordie lives in the southern suburbs and his hobbies include running. He is an insurance man, likes to run half and full marathons and will be trying his first ultra-marathon this year. Hope on to his Instagram handle and wish him luck.

Almost no time for you to back out like you generally do, possibly since you receive cool feet. You tell me you will end up here in 30 minutes... I leap in the shower. My mind races as I lather up my body. I do not know why you keep achieving this to me. You might have had me following our first date and you chose to cat until I was in a relationship, of course. I rapidly work my give around my dark skin, teasing my nipples along the way, sensation them harden. Watching the soap trickle down my stomach, to my heavy chocolate legs, completely down my legs. As I rinse off, I take the bath head and linger, just for an additional, on my pussy. I'm currently getting moist for you and I loathe myself for it. I will have claimed no. You're dating a
single mom for Lord sakes. The fact that I understand and am doing nothing to prevent you makes people both terrible people, but I understand in several hours I'll fell so great I won't care. I keep the doorway revealed for you. You come upstairs to find me during sex, carrying the underwear you selected for me, candles lit. I'm pressing myself already.

Lord only knows what's going on in her mischievous brain at the moment. Where'd Brenda go? I ask, pausing my tongue to glance around her bedroom. I think she gone downstairs to be sure of the party, Kimberly fibs, distracting me with her fingers operating through my hair. I believed Amber was catering the celebration, I remark, seeking up in to her brilliant, orange innocent eyes. She'll be back, Kimberly assures, rubbing Free Webcam Porn and caressing her breasts to help keep my eyes entertained. Damn, this really is also easy, Brenda blurts, flinging the bathroom door spacious, wearing a huge, realistic- seeking tie on. What the -, I exclaim, snatching my head around, staring at the band on Brenda's wearing. Hahaha....... The appearance on see your face is fucking expensive, Brenda cracks, running on the sleep, laughing. Brenda's laughter infects Kimberly and she breaks out joking, too. I can not support but to laugh proper alongside them. Between equally of these, they have managed to surprise me with a thing that I absolutely was not wanting - maybe not in a million years. The night time just maintains improving and better. Outside, Kryss turns down the headlights on his car. Creeping through the night, he brings up and parks across the road from Brenda's house. With Brenda's bedroom curtains closed, there's number means for us to see his red Mustang parked in the street, scoping out the all-girls party. Starting a beer, Kryss chugs it down in one enormous gulp. Then, he wipes his mouth on his sleeve. Furrowing his brows, he tosses the clear bottle out the passenger window. A spectacular, contemptuous look extends across his face, blistering it with disgust. Opening another beer, he chugs down most of it. Studying the silhouettes because they move before the family room windows, he waits, his mind churning and festering with intoxicated thoughts.

(This is a continuation of the pamphlet by Mother Marie Rosaria, O.P.)
The nuns in this monastery belong to the Dominican Order. They were founded in 1206 by St. Dominic when he gathered together into the Monastery of St. Mary of Prouille in France, a small group of women converted to the Catholic faith from the Albigensian heresy. He associated these women who had left all for God with his Holy Preaching by prayer and penance. Thus the Dominican Nuns from the very beginning embarked on the work of reconciliation and renewal of the Church, spearheaded by their Holy Father St. Dominic. They still share today in the universal preaching and teaching apostolate of the whole Dominican order through their life of contemplation, liturgical prayer, study, work, and sacrifice.
Essentially a mystery, their life is a collective, sacred sign and witness of Gospel living and an anticipation of the glorious Church without spot or wrinkle and immutable in its possession and contemplation of God. Theirs is a lifestyle radically lived for the sake of the Kingdom of Heaven: a way of living that witnesses to, proclaims, and serves the coming of God's own rule of peace, justice, mercy and love initiated by Christ the Lord, and completed on His return.
The specific mission of these nuns is unceasing prayer for the entire Church, for you and me, and for all men and women, for the Order, for all their benefactors, living and deceased, and the reconciliation of all in Christ. It is a pure, spiritual service in the form of praise, adoration, intercession, expiation and thanksgiving. By profession, the nuns are wholly consecrated to the Church and are called to the task of spreading the Kingdom of God in the world, using only the means of prayer and penance, which nevertheless are endowed with marvelous apostolic fruitfulness. The nuns harbor in their hearts the sufferings and anguish of all; they share to a more universal degree the fatigue and hope of all people; they raise the level of the spiritual life of the Church and are a sign to believers and unbelievers of the existence and presence of God, affirming the transcendent values of the life to come.

A new study has reported that radiotherapy reduces the risk of local recurrence of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), especially for women with close surgical margins. Surgery for DCIS is not always followed by radiation treatment despite studies reporting its benefit in reducing the risk of ipsilateral breast cancer recurrence (i.e., recurrence in the same breast that was treated). The study included 294 patients with DCIS treated either with surgery alone or with surgery plus radiation between 1991 and 1995. Margin width, number of involved ducts at closest margin, presence of palpable mass, presence of lobular neoplasia, nuclear grade, necrosis, and age were examined individually and in combination as potential factors influencing risk of ipsilateral breast cancer recurrence. The potential addition benefit of radiation treatment was also assessed.
During a median follow-up period of 11 years, an actuarial 10-year ipsilateral breast cancer recurrence rate of 22% was found in the study group overall. The 15-year rate was 29%. For lesions excised with margins of less than 1 mm, 1 to 9 mm, and at least 10 mm, the actuarial 10-year ipsilateral breast cancer recurrence rates were 28%, 21%, and 19%, respectively. Radiation treatment reduced these recurrence rates by 62% for all patients in the study, 83% for lesions with less than 1 mm margins, 70% for 1 to 9 mm, and 24% for margins of at least 10 mm. After adjusting for other variables, higher volume of disease near the surgical margin was found to be associated with more than three times greater risk of ipsilateral breast cancer recurrence in the no radiation treatment group. The authors conclude that the effect of radiation treatment on ipsilateral breast cancer recurrence risk is influenced both by margin width and number of involved ducts at nearest margin. Patients with higher volume of disease near the margin derive the greatest benefit from radiation. However, even in patients with surgical margins of at least 10 mm, the risk of breast cancer recurrence in the treated breast remains substantial in patients with DCIS.

Summit Highlights Phase 3-Ready Precision Antibiotic Ridinilazole at IDWeek 2018
Summit Therapeutics plc
('Summit' or the 'Company')
Summit Highlights Phase 3-Ready Precision Antibiotic Ridinilazole at IDWeek 2018
- Ridinilazole in Development to Treat C. difficile Infection and Reduce Recurrent Disease
Oxford, UK, and Cambridge, MA, US, 3 October 2018 – Summit Therapeutics plc (NASDAQ: SMMT, AIM: SUMM), a leader in new mechanism antibiotic innovation, is highlighting ridinilazole's potential as a front-line treatment for C. difficile infection ('CDI') in a series of oral and poster presentations at the infectious disease conference IDWeek 2018 in San Francisco, CA. Ridinilazole is the Company's most advanced new mechanism antibiotic, which is expected to enter Phase 3 clinical trials in the first quarter of 2019.
As are being outlined at IDWeek, the Phase 3 clinical trials of ridinilazole are designed not only to evaluate ridinilazole in the treatment of CDI but also to show its impact on reducing disease recurrence and in preserving the gut microbiome, important determinants of public health impact. The effectiveness of ridinilazole in the treatment of CDI and CDI recurrence will be evaluated by measuring sustained clinical response ('SCR'), which is the primary endpoint for both of the two planned Phase 3 clinical trials.
"We believe that to have success in antibiotics, we need to be bold and think differently. This is highlighted by our Phase 3 clinical trial design for ridinilazole that aims to show superiority of ridinilazole over vancomycin, the current standard of care. The primary endpoint will measure how ridinilazole can treat CDI and reduce recurrent CDI, the major unmet need in this disease. Finally, we are incorporating health economic outcomes measures that we believe will help support premium pricing," commented Dr David Roblin, President of R&D of Summit. "If the Phase 3 clinical trial results are positive, we believe these measures would differentiate ridinilazole in CDI and support its front-line use."
A summary of the information being presented at IDWeek includes:
- Ridinilazole achieving statistical superiority over vancomycin in the primary endpoint of SCR in a Phase 2 clinical trial called CoDIFy; this superiority was driven by a large reduction in CDI recurrence.
- Ridinilazole significantly preserved the gut microbiome of patients with CDI in CoDIFy, which Summit believes led to the reduction in recurrent CDI.
- The design of the ridinilazole Phase 3 clinical trials called Ri-CoDIFy which will use the same primary endpoint of SCR.
- Ridinilazole's activity is targeted to the site of infection. Preclinical studies and Phase 1 and 2 clinical trials of ridinilazole have shown negligible systemic exposure and levels of drug in the colon and/or faeces significantly above the minimum inhibitory concentration.
- A good safety profile with ridinilazole, being generally well tolerated in prior clinical trials and non-clinical studies.
- Ridinilazole was significantly more potent against over 500 recent clinical isolates of C. difficile than vancomycin and metronidazole, another commonly used CDI treatment, regardless of ribotype or antibiotic resistance profile.
- Diagnostics are important for selective antibiotics, such as ridinilazole, to ensure patients are treated with the right drug for their infection. As was used in CoDIFy, a test for the toxins produced by C. difficile will also be used in the Phase 3 clinical trials to confirm that patients have CDI.
Copies of the presentations are available under the Publications section of Summit's website, www.summitplc.com.
About C. difficile Infection
C. difficile infection is a serious healthcare threat in hospitals, long-term care homes and increasingly in the wider community with over one million estimated cases of CDI annually in the United States and Europe. CDI is caused by an infection of the colon by the bacterium C. difficile, which produces toxins that cause inflammation and severe diarrhoea, and in the most serious cases can be fatal. Patients typically develop CDI following the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics that can cause widespread damage to the natural gastrointestinal (gut) flora and allow overgrowth of C. difficile bacteria. Existing CDI treatments are predominantly broad-spectrum antibiotics, which cause further damage to the gut flora and are associated with high rates of recurrent disease. Reducing disease recurrence is the key clinical issue in CDI as repeat episodes are typically more severe and associated with an increase in mortality rates and healthcare costs. The economic impact of CDI is significant with one study estimating annual acute care costs at $4.8 billion in the US.
About Ridinilazole
Ridinilazole is a small molecule antibiotic that Summit is developing for the treatment of CDI. In preclinical efficacy studies, ridinilazole exhibited a targeted spectrum of activity that combined a potent bactericidal effect against all clinical isolates of C. difficile tested with minimal impact on other bacteria that are typically found in the gut microbiome. In a Phase 2 proof of concept trial in CDI patients, ridinilazole showed statistical superiority in sustained clinical response ('SCR') rates compared to the standard of care, vancomycin. In that trial, SCR was defined as clinical cure at end of treatment and no recurrence of CDI within 30 days of the end of therapy. Ridinilazole was also shown to be highly preserving of the gut microbiome in the Phase 2 proof of concept trial, which was believed to be the reason for the improved clinical outcome for the ridinilazole-treated patients. In addition, ridinilazole preserved the gut microbiome to a greater extent than the marketed narrow-spectrum antibiotic fidaxomicin in an exploratory Phase 2 clinical trial. Ridinilazole, an orally administered small molecule, has received Qualified Infectious Disease Product ('QIDP') designation and has been granted Fast Track designation by the US Food and Drug Administration. The QIDP incentives are provided through the US GAIN Act and include a potential extension of marketing exclusivity for an additional five years upon FDA approval.
