TAEMA is an exciting new residential resort community and airpark nestled into the jungle of Puerto Aventuras. TAEMA is a unique vanguard residential concept, where respect for nature and the welfare of the residents are the main lines of its design. This one of a kind endeavor is an exciting new addition to the Riviera Maya landscape and certain to draw the attention of investors from around the world.
"Etos, our main company, was created in order to bring to life projects with a different point of view while at the same time being socially and environmentally responsible. But, first and foremost, they must be designed by passion. This is the same passion that brings us today to partner with Seaside Rotary." explained Jean-Damien de Terwangne, Project Leader for TAEMA. "As the founders of TAEMA we believe in making the world a better place and we are convinced that even the smallest things can make a difference for someone somewhere. When we heard what Seaside Rotary had already done in the region and that they were looking for support to continue their actions, we knew it would be a great opportunity to participate in this new adventure."
The Seaside Rotary Golf Classic presented by TAEMA by Etos will be the club's biggest fundraiser of the year. Proceeds from previous tournaments have been used to provide over $500,000 USD worth of essential medical equipment and supplies to the new Red Cross Hospital in Playa del Carmen. Recently, Seaside Rotary has provided funds to support an innovative therapy program for children at the KODOMO Center for Autism and orchestrated the installation of a clean water system in the remote community of Cristo Rey.
This year, with the support of our District 4195 and the Rotary Foundation, Seaside Rotary will be able to bring over 3 MILLION USD worth of medical equipment and supplies to struggling Red Cross hospitals all across southeast Mexico including facilities in Chiapas, Oaxaca, Veracruz, Campeche, Cancun and Tabasco.
The tournament organizing committee is offering a variety of sponsorship opportunities to support this fundraising initiative. Individuals and local businesses are encouraged to support this charitable event with monetary donations and by providing prizes for special contests such as longest putt, longest drive, closest to the pin ,"Beat the Pro" and for the first time, a $1,000,000 peso Shoot-Out. Major sponsors for this year's tournament include Condo-Hotels Playa del Carmen, BuyPlaya Real Estate Advisors, BRIC Hotel & Spa, AREA International Real Estate, PG's Mexican Caribe Bar & Grill and Mac en Playa iCafe.

ZOMATO : To love or not to love?
I am sure, the ones reading this would laugh, saying this is not a question to be asked, because everyone in the world knows about Zomato. I am sure, its true, with the wonders Zomato has done in less than 5 years. But let me tell you a little about Zomato, for those living in cities where Zomato is still a new concept.
From the Start :
Zomato started as FoodieBay.com by Deepinder Goyal along with a few of his colleagues to sort out the problems of finding a good restaurant to eat. Officially started in July, 2008 with a database for approx 1200 restaurants in Delhi, Zomato has expanded its database to more than 1,20,000. Zomato has expanded its reach outside India recently to places like Brazil, New Zealand, Phillipines, Qatar, UAE, UK, Sri Lanka, London and many more...
What does it do :
Zomato's guide allows you to search for information related to restaurants, bars, pubs, and clubs. The information includes the establishment's name, contact info, hours of operation, happy hours (where valid), menu cards, photos, user reviews, location on map, user ratings and recommendations for the restaurant, types of cuisines served, presence or absence of AC, smoking area availability, WiFi services, approx prices, availability of home delivery, and much more!
My Experience :
I myself started out sharing a few experiences on Zomato. When I earned a position on the leaderboard for the first time, I couldn't control my excitement. I was filled with joy! From then on, I have never missed a chance to try out a new restaurant, or a newly opened club, (just to review more on Zomato, and go higher on the foodie leaderboard).
My eyes light up, when one of my friends sees my name on the Zomato leaderboard while surfing and texts me to say that they feel proud of me! I have gained huge popularity among my friends, and they all ask for my recommendations whenever they go out, which makes me nothing less than proud! ;)
Now, I aspire to be recognized as a foodie, and be known to my fellow Zomen as a connoisseur, a gourmand. Zomato served as an inspiration...
What We love :
1) Zomato provides us with accurate, up-to-date and detailed information for each establishment in the city.
2) User Recommendations, help you decide if the restaurant/club/pub is worth going or not.
3) Availability of Menu for each restaurant which helps us decide if we can really afford it or not, and if the cuisine and the dishes available matches our taste or not.
4) The interface is easy-to-use and user friendly.Also, it is updated frequently, which keeps us hooked to the website, and makes us more enthusiastic about food we eat outside!
5) Zomato has made eating outside a trend, an experience worth having! People want to go out more, and discover new places to eat, so that they can review more on Zomato and earn points and respectable status in the foodie committee.
6) Zomato recently introduced an option to thank someone if you liked their review, which is a superb move to let people know, their reviews are appreciated!
7) The leaderboard system on Zomato helps you maintain the competitive spirit, and keeps alive the spirit of discovering new places and restaurants in your city.
8) Zomato has launched an app for the mobile phones, which makes it easy to discover new places through mobile.
9) Zomato also lists the budget for 2 for each restaurant, which helps you decide if it is within your price range or not.
10) The happy hours availability on Zomato is great for all!
11) Finding nearby metro, and posting pics and commenting on the reviews is easy through the Zomato app...Which we absolutely love!
12) Book a table option availability at a few restaurants, which helps you to avoid the waiting line at the restaurants.
What we want to change or be added to our fav Website :
1) Zomato can introduce their own offers for each restaurant for people come to ZOMATO almost everyday, and availing offers by writing reviews would be very helpful!
2) We should be able to recommend a dish for each restaurant, and availability of voting system for each dish (special to each restaurant) would help us try out the best dishes of each restaurant.
3) I want to be able to divide the places I favourite, into groups like #Party Favourites, #Buffet Favourites, #Brunch Favorites etc. so that its easy to find the place when I need to!
4) I should be able to find out the restaurants open at a particular time, especially night time and breakfast time, when searching for a food joint is pretty difficult.
5) Include the Chef's names if possible. People would love to know about them. Also, if there was a lil section devoted to the chefs, it would be great!
5) Include the Chef's names if possible. People would love to know about them. Also, if there was a lil section devoted to the chefs, it would be great!
6) People writing small insignificant reviews should be warned, as such reviews are in no way helpful, and quite irritating. We should be allowed to report and moderate such users.
7) Zomato rewards its foodies, but not too well. Foodies should be offered special discounts once in a while. It would be nice, refreshing and rewarding.
8) While planning for my party, it became very difficult for me to go to each restaurant and gather details to organize a private party. Such options should be made available on Zomato.
9) We need a better Rating system! We should be able to rate food, music, ambiance, etc individually, so it becomes easy for people to judge a place better!
11) Lack of ambiance photos is quite frustrating. We need to check out the ambiance, and food photos aren't that important! We need more ambiance photos for each restaurant!
12) A coming soon section is much required on Zomato. Coming Soon or newly launched restaurants should be listed separately for users to be able to discover more!
13) There should be an option available, for those, who dont have a lot of time to write a review, to choose few of the given words in each section of food, ambiance, service, etc to describe a place fast and easy, without any hassles.
14) More criteria to sort out the restaurant of choice can be added to the website.
I hope Zomato implements these points in their next update, and help enhance the experience of fellow Zomen.

As a gritty Christian, I've heard it said a few times–"Well, I don't really have much to tell. I was saved as a kid, and nothing bad ever happened to me. I'm 'just' a Christian."
Do you know what a huge accomplishment that is in today's world? If nothing bad ever happened, that's rare indeed, and not 'just' anything. Take a quick look around the globe, and the phenomenon of "I have no real complaints" becomes nothing short of miraculous. To be able to say that about one's life is truly special.
We have a notion that in order to express Christ, we must have a gritty contrast to reveal the grace. Otherwise, we have nothing to talk about.
But the reason this makes a testimony is not because Christ operates primarily in the depths of sin and sorrow, but at the end of self. And for most of us, we have to mess up big in order to get to the end of self.
Living sinfully is not necessary to the deep experience of Christ. It would not exactly make for a holy God, if life-damaging pain were the measure of experiencing Him. He is certainly there in the worst pain, and I can assure you, He's there more than anywhere. But what it takes to meet Him is the end of self. Anyone can do that, regardless of experience.
Anyone can open their Bible and dance with God.
I used to wonder, why insulate oneself from worldliness, if it's of no value against fleshly indulgence? (Col. 2:20-23) And there's a truth there on one side of the coin. I should go out and face the world for what it is. But there's also a truth on the other, which says, "This is pure and undefiled religion in the sight of our God and Father … to keep oneself unstained by the world." (James 1:27) I can go out and face the world for what I am -- a child of God.
Even if I remove the world's intrusions and conquer the devil's temptations, there is still the flesh -- the me that I wrestle with daily. I could be a hermit on a hilltop and still need God. Because when all the external weight is removed, I must still deal with myself.
And that's when I truly begin to see God for who He is–in contrast to my incomplete, internally gritty self. Knowing that, I am learning to say what Paul said:
Do you feel like you can "dance with God"?
Do you ever wonder what your spiritual message is?
Do you wrestle with what it "should" be?

Monster Hunter Will Be Hollywood's Next Victim
Today at Tokyo Game Show, Capcom announced that a Monster Hunter movie is currently in production.
According to Gematsu, Capcom's Ryozo Tsujimoto had the following to say, "While it isn't related to Stories, there is a Hollywood movie adaptation of the main series in progress."
For anyone unfamiliar, Stories is the next entry in the Monster Hunter series, and is set to launch in Japan on October 8. Monster Hunter Stories will be a spin-off game and apparently have no connection to the movie.
No telling how on earth anyone plans on adapting the Monster Hunter games into a Hollywood movie, but I'm sure they'll find a way to ruin it. That is, if every other video game movie is anything to go by. For more information on Monster Hunter games, movies, Amiibo, etcetera, stay tuned to Second Best Gaming.

Needle felting, nuno and wet felting.(Click on pictures for more detail and feel free to leave comments, suggestions or questions .)
Saturday, July 4, 2009
Nature is copying wet felted look !
Totally unrelated but isn't this a cute mink bear . I am considering buying the pattern to make these from a seller on Etsy . I have several rescued fur coats that I want to do "something" with...just can't stand the idea of them going into land fills and certainly wouldn't wear one . I am planning incorporating them and some of my other leather and vintage fabrics into vessels but still have more then I will ever need for that project .
I was also innocently on Etsy today, to answer a friends email there, and low and behold....was possessed by evil shopping spirits that forced me to spend ...(to much) on some stones to decorate my felting items . I think this is going to be one of my new "favorite stones because it reminds me of some of the beautiful effects of wet felting . It's called * rainforest jasper or ryholit, I think....(*refer to post on bad memory)
I have no other word for this, then organic, but there is something in the blends of colors and patterns in stones that that just seems to feed my eyes . I can't walk past a pile of rocks with out spending a few minutes or hours picking through them for shape, color and texture . I had once thought I would find a way to incorporate them into a scuplture but couldn't fingure out how without using glue . Now, I'm wondering how I can do so with felting . Another motivator to learn wet-felting .
Happy 4th to all .

Hey! Just wanted to say hi. I really appreciate you taking the time to comment on my blog. The more I'm reading his book, the more I'm seeing that I don't have AS. Which is okay. I think I'm just socially weird. I appreciate you taking the time to talk to me, and I wouldn't mind hearing about some of your theories. I'd be really interested to hear about it from your viewpoint. So, if you wouldn't mind indulging me, I'd like to hear from you again!ReplyDelete

CLARKDALE – Wednesday afternoon, Verde Valley emergency services responded to a report of a single car motor vehicle accident on Broadway, approximately at the intersection of Bent River Road.
Verde Valley Fire District found one vehicle off the road on a steep incline. The driver, the single occupant of the vehicle, was still in the car and did not want to exit due to its precarious position, according to a release by the VVFD.
The vehicle was stabilized while Clarkdale Police set up traffic control. The vehicle was not on the road but emergency vehicles caused a partial blockage.
Once the car was stabilized the driver was extricated by VVFD and Cottonwood Fire and Medical Department crew members. The driver sustained no injuries and was not transported by ambulance.

This is the second of two postings on "Wicca: from my Christian perspective: a series.
Wiccan and other neo-pagan groups, in contrast to the world view of eastern pantheism, attempt to give meaning to the material world. The Goddess acts and the acts are all the cycles and actions of nature, including the acts of humanity. Within this neo-pagan attempt to give meaning to creation, a defining motif emerges and under girds the rituals of Wicca; that is, viewing creation as divine.
Creation is the reality and focus of worship for many Wicca devotees. Honor and devotion are given to creation in the same way that Christians give worship to Jesus Christ. In the book The Coming of The Cosmic Christ, author Matthew Fox writes:
"The universe is, after all, the proper setting for and the source of all energy for rendering ritual, cults, and sacraments effective. . . . In this fuller context of a mysticism grounded in the ultimate mystery of the universe itself, liturgy receives its primary power, its primary source for its symbols and its work of healing and empowerment."9
Fox also suggests that the Church's understanding of Jesus as dying and resurrected lamb be replaced with "Mother Earth" as dying and resurrected.10 Indeed, others have proposed the same transfer in an attempt to wed paganism to Christianity. The point is, however, that neo-pagans, including Wiccans, understand creation itself to be the reality they worship.
This is, in fact, a closed system. Without a God separate from creation the magical aspects of witchcraft are simply connected to the material world. Nature worship becomes naturalism. Magic for the Pagan is neither heaven nor hell breaking into our world.
All wicca worship is connected to this understanding of creation as divine. The Wicca worshiper borrows deities and rituals from ancient practice and combines them with their own cultural understanding. They also, as individuals and individual covens, create their own new rituals. For instance, their creation centered worship involves tantra which is an eastern concept.
For the eastern pantheist tantra is a way of using the material universe to eliminate the material universe which is considered unreal. The goal of the eastern pantheist is to go beyond dualities of creation, losing the distinction of self, becoming like a drop of water in the ocean. However, for the Wiccan, tantra is a means of bringing harmony to the individual self and experiencing the force of the universe. Wicca adherents use tantra as a tool in an attempt to enhance and affirm creation.
The tools of tantra are used in combination with the senses. Words (Mantra), visual implements (Yantras such as a mandala), and ritual sexual union (Maithuna), are the basic tools of tantra.
There are tantrics who practice symbolic sexual union and those who practice actual sexual union. There are many other tools and rituals of Wicca. For instance, most Wicca ritual involves a circle considered a sacred space. Other tools include chants, songs and a cauldren ( a cooking pot used for ritual ).11 Much of the ritual action in the coven is used as a way of experiencing union with the Goddess, empowerment, a means of focusing power on individual or group needs and desires, and as a way of healing.
Likewise, morality for the Wiccan is based in creation and the individual. This view, for some, is based on seeing nature as divine, personal and good. Carol Christ argues that "nature is itself intelligent and loving," and that we should look for "principles of morality within nature." She suggests that such principles or "touchstones" "are relative to the situations in which we live." She further states, "New touchstones can be added as they are discovered. Those that have outlived their usefulness can be discarded."12
On the other hand, Vivianne Crowley, author of Wicca: The Old Religion in The New Age, writes that "Paganism tends to see darkness and light as being in harmony and necessary counterparts to one another."13 Likewise, remember Starhawks's comment about what defines the Goddess: not only is the bud and blossom Goddess, but also the fang and claw.
Unlike the righteous Creator, creation possesses both good and evil. Contrary to Wicca's expectations, creation offers no mercy and no restraint against evil. In fact, in a recent edition of Gnosis, Carol leMasters suggests that more emphasis on the "darker aspects of the Goddess" would help to extend acceptance to "promiscuity or anonymous encounters or kinky sex."14

Radical Rupture, 2005-2008
Looped DVD, beanbag chairs, shag rug
26 minutes 35 seconds
In Radical Rupture the visual of the creation of a universe, one star at a time, is combined with an audio recording of a lecture given by Herbert Marcuse in 1968 on the nature of aggression and repression. At the mid-point of the lecture, the stars begin to disappear one by one, ending with a black screen. This installation consists of a projection screen tilted between the wall and the ceiling, five beanbag chairs and a large shag rug. Viewers should lean back in the chairs to orient themselves towards the screen.
Sunrise / Sunset: Three Early Modern Utopias, Revised, 2006
DVD loop
6 minutes 35 seconds
In this video, a paperback copy of a book titled Three Early Modern Utopias is raised into the frame. The lower right hand corner of the book is central in the frame, when the person holding the book starts flipping rapidly through the pages. Random words from the text are briefly legible, while a bright yellow ink-splotch on the bottom of the page becomes animated by the action of flipping the pages. The ink-splotch comes to resemble a sun rising and setting on the horizon, as the person holding the book repeats his action from front to back, then back to front numerous times.
Loheland, 2010
Looped DVD, digital poster
28 minutes 54 seconds
Inspired by the Loheland Colony, a radically utopian, all female school founded in Weimar Germany, this video focuses on the relationship between modern dance and Great Danes, two disparate enterprises for which the colony became well known. While the tenants of modern dance developed at Loheland, such as non-rhythmic, asexual movements, were curtailed due to criticality towards the gaze in performance, their commercial success at breeding Great Danes (which enterprise funded the school) lives on today: Loheland Danes are still the top prize winners for the breed. Loheland Dance Rehearsal Research Residency is a video document of an experiment in movement combining human and animal bodies, wherein an exploration of physical repertoires and an intersection between radically different bodies creates a speculative connection between the creative and commercial enterprises of this historical example of feminist utopian pedagogy.This work includes a give-away artist poster. Available at the KAG admissions desk.

I originally opened up this blog as a place to post my frustrations. At the time, LiveJournal wasn't cutting it. Some stuff I would talk about would come back and bite me in the ass because there are people on my friends list that would attack me for it, when I wasn't asking to be attacked. After opening up this blog, I dropped so much heavy stuff, and I didn't care. Eventually I felt that I needed to vent on what's I thought was wrong with cosplay and how to fix it. But all that stopped when I met someone. Someone really chill.
It's no surprise that when I talk about what I think is wrong with the cosplay community, it can ruffle feathers. I tell it like it is. I've called people out for their crap. If I can own up to my issues, so can you. But that recently changed.
I have gone to NJ Comic Anime Con back in June. What's becoming very popular now is having cosplay guests. Some of you know my thoughts on this, some do not. But that is a story for another time. Personally, I do not care who is "cosfamous" or not. As long as you are cool and don't mind your picture being taken, it's all good.
So this particular con had a few there. I know a couple, so it would be no big thang to get pictures. Other cosplayers I didn't know, but you'd know there wouldn't be any problems getting pictures. So as I was walking through the venue for photos, I ended up asking Riddle for a few photos. I know who she is, I've watched Heroes of Cosplay, I have friends who know her. So to me it's whatevs, right?
So I ask her for a few photos, and I take them. And I hand her my card. Now before she looked at it, she replied, "I know who you are." It's far and few that I'd react where the blood would drain from my face, but I did. I've been known to say some real outlandish shit. I had this fear that something I said would come back and bit me on the ass.
But it didn't. She was very sweet. We talked about old school anime and whatnot. So I showed her my Tenchi Muyo! and MLP group from DCC, and she loved it. We chatted some more, but then I had to get back to my press duties. And it had me thinking. Maybe I am being to hard to brash. Maybe I do need to relax and enjoy life more. I may not like what's going on in the community, but maybe it's best to keep most thoughts to myself and live life.
After that con, I decided to open up my blog to talk about things more than just cosplay, as per my intentions from the start. I'm not sure what I plan to talk about, but I do know I'll be putting a better positive spin on it.

What a cracker Sydney Day! With blue skies, great wind and friendly faces welcoming our sailors to the club – we knew that day two of racing was going to be a winner! The forecast held true with a building sea breeze and we got all three races in on the full length course.
The hard stand shenanigans started early on – with the trash talk between nations kicking off the day in good spirits. Many of the sailors took advantage of the crane entry system early on – getting their boat into the water with ease and keeping it in the pond during tune up time.
First race 12 knots, second race 15 knots and third race 22 knots – all round nice Sydney sea breeze sailing! A few felt the need to come in early to save themselves for the main event later this week.
Sore bodies were felt by all – and put everyone through their paces.
Nice Sydney sea breeze sailing

A significant tax savings will can be realized in this medical practice loan against equipment, by being arranged in part as a lease. This allows for a significant tax savings over a traditional loan. The borrower obtains working capital for their business via the equity in their equipment as opposed to having full ownership in their equipment.
Processing time is one to three days. After approval, time for funding is approximately one to three days. If more funding is needed, additional funding can be arranged with additional funding "parts" or "segments". Total funding that can be obtained is typically in the $150,000 to $250,000 range.
Due to constant advances in the medical field, medical equipment equipment depreciates quickly. Many types of medical equipment becomes totally obsolete in a short amount of time. However, Small Business Loans Depot can utilize medical equipment that has undergone full depreciation and is several years old.
The practice may have additional financing and working capital needs after the equipment refinance product is completed.
Other programs
Gross sales cash flow loan – This financing product may be very desirable for medical practices as it is based on the gross sales and cash flow of the practice. Medical practices often have significant cash flow, so this product can provide significant working capital to the practice.
This medical practice loan product is used, in effect as a line of credit. The practice provides the most recent 3 months business checking account statements and a one page application. The average daily collected balance, the amount and number of deposits per month, beginning balances, and ending balances are reviewed in order to determine the approved amount.
The customer sends in the 3 months business checking account statements and one page application. Upon approval, the customer is e-mailed documents. The customer completes the documents and faxes them back in. A final landlord check and verbal verification is completed. Funds are wired into the customer's account within 1-3 business days.
Repayment terms on this medical practice loan range from 3 to 18 months. Once the customer satisfactorily repays the line, the line size is increased. The customer is not obligated to use the available line. They can reuse the line immediately or leave it idle for any amount of time.
Sample medical practice loan transaction:
Primary care physician PCP, Dr. Smith, in Lexington, Kentucky, 6 Years in business, 650 credit score with a Dun & Bradstreet Paydex Score = 65. Dr. Smith provides one page application and his equipment list.
Upon approval in 2-3 days, documents are e-mailed to Dr. Smith. Dr. Smith completes and overnights original docs back. A final verbal confirmation takes place within a day. In most cases there is no site inspection. Funding occurs in 2-3 business days.
In most cases, financials and bank statements are not required. However, if the customer's financials or bank Statements are strong, the customer can opt to provide to strengthen their application. If the customer has a strong credit bureau score of over 700 or over 725, financials may not be requested.
Although there is a certain dollar amount above which financials are requested for this form of financing, there is often some discretion used by the lender. If the customer has a credit score of 750, then the lender may consider an extra $10K or $20K without requesting financials for a medical practice loan compared to a customer with a 675 credit score.
The lender has guidelines that they follow but they do have the authority to stray from the guidelines to a degree if they can justify it.
The following video provides an overview of the medical practice loan program as well, including features and benefits.
Frequently asked questions:
"Get me a medical practice loan" or "I need a medical practice loan".
Question: What is the maximum we should apply for?
Answer: That depends on a few factors, but in general, a good rule is to
apply for not much more than the minimum amount that you need. If your
business needs between $50,000 and $100,000, then do not apply for
$100,000 to $150,000. Some applicants think that they should apply for the maximum amount, or "go for the moon". They believe that the more they ask for, the more they
This is not true. With many lenders, the more you apply for, the more difficult it is
to get approved. If you apply for too much, they will simply decline
the request rather than approving your business for a lower amount. When your business only needs $50,000 in working capital but applies for $150,000, then it may be turned down completely and not receive any funding. The business should apply for as close to $50,000 as they feel they can.

In March of this year I bought this map. Anonymous 1640-1660
With a reading glass I tried to read or decipher what is written on the map. Most of the text on this map is in Dutch ('Belgis'). Pretty though to read anything substantial.
Couple of weeks later I looked at the details of this map. Blaeu J 1662
My conclusion: the texts on the two maps are identical. In every detail!
Titles compared:
'Appel Boomgaert' (English 'Apple Orchard') and 'Conde de St. Crux' compared on São Antonio:
'Klip Water Pl' and 'Zand Strant' and 'Groote Inwyck' compared on São Vincente:
'S. Domingo' and 'Porto de Rey Beraon' and ' Hoeck van Fortalesa' compared on Santiago:
Two maps are identical. Only difference colour and placement of title.

I'm going to wait until Thursday to announce my top 3, but I'm going to give everyone some feedback in the meantime.ReplyDelete
First, I LOL'd (in a good way)! Second, the names are kinda unisex. I had a hard time remembering which one was the girl, and which one is the boy. Also, not sure what an "estate photographer" is. Does she photograph the dead person's property? I'd like to know just a tad more about the "Society." It kind of appears out of nowhere, then is gone again.
Okay. Stay tuned!
Thanks for taking the time to comment on all your entires (and thanks- she grumbles) for letting us know you're going to make us sweat it out til Thursday. I lol'd (in a good way too) at the choice of "Colonel Mustard" - nice.ReplyDelete
I shall stay tuned!
Great first line in the query! Also, love the name Devyn (might just be my MC's name too...)ReplyDelete
I agree, you could move the society stuff up a bit or give more. And great first 250. Really set the scene.
Awesome: "Opportunity hadn't knocked, it had handed her the damn key." This sets the stage for life shoving her in directions she may or may not understand (or like). Also makes me want to know WHY she opportunity brought her there. Good job!ReplyDelete

You're in!ReplyDelete
Great voice. Great humor. What I love about this (both the query and the first 250) is the clever word play. I'm dying to know what her first two favorite curse words are.
Good luck!
SWEET! Thank you Colonel Mustard, for the early Valentine's Day Present. I was popping on to read some other entries and comment when I saw this! Thank you again, I hope you get to see more of the mouthy Ms Devyn soon! ;)ReplyDelete

Raids in Oceanside net meth, cash, guns and dynamite
Tony Perry (Los Angeles Times) | July 29, 2011
Raids by a law enforcement task force investigating the trafficking of weapons and guns by gangs in northern San Diego County have scooped up an unusually large haul.
More than a pound of methamphetamine, $23,000 in cash, six firearms and four sticks of dynamite were found when warrants were served on two homes and a storage unit in Oceanside, according to the San Diego County Sheriff's Department.
Marvin Wight, 31, who lived at one of the homes, was arrested on suspicion of parole violation, officials said.
The warrants were served by investigators from the North County Regional Gang Task Force, which includes officers from local, state and federal agencies.

Find The Cheapest Motorhome InsuranceHunting for cheap motorhome insurance can take time.
That's why at Cheapest Car Insurance we make it easy. Fill in our simple form to compare quotes from the top UK insurers to find an affordable policy.
Get started now! simply fill in the form and we will fetch the best rates and discounts from all the top companies.
Motorhome Insurance
Driving across the UK or camping in a motorhome can be a great deal of fun. That said, nothing is quite as devastating as losing your most prized vehicle to a traffic collision or a thief. If you want to be sure that you can continue to enjoy your camper for years to come, you need to make sure that you are signed up for the right type of insurance before you move forward. Without adequate coverage, the financial devastation that you could face might be greater than you expect.
The Default Option is Not the Best Option
Underinsurance is a serious problem, and there is certainly no exception for motorhome insurance. All too often, people will accept the first deal that they are offered. The fact of the matter is, insurers offer the level of coverage that you need, but they are often afraid to discuss it up front. There is a good reason for this. They often scare their own customers off.
When people think of "cheap motorhome insurance" they are usually thinking one of two things. Either they want the insurance with the lowest premium, or they want the insurance that offers the most coverage for each dollar spent. But the logic of the bargain bin and the wholesaler doesn't apply to insurance. An entirely different approach is required.
How to Approach Cheap Motorhome Insurance Comparison
Before even looking at a quote, you really need to decide how much coverage you need. You aren't going to accomplish this by taking the first recommendation offered by an insurer, nor are you going to figure it out exclusively by looking at quotes.
Instead, you need to start by picturing a scenario in which you actually need your insurance. What would you do if your camper was stolen, or if it was damaged beyond all repair?
Each of you will have a different answer to that question. Some of you might not mind if you lost your camper. It may not be your primary vehicle, and you might think you can do without one, at least until you save up enough money to buy another one. Or the motorhome might be so old that you could replace it using funds that you already have in the bank. If that is the case, you shouldn't waste your time looking at comprehensive or collision coverage. You should focus on strict liability policies only.
On the other hand, you might need your motorhome because it is the only vehicle that you drive. You may also simply enjoy camping too much to do away with it. If this is the case, great. You should find an insurer that will offer comprehensive or collision coverage.
That said, don't accept the default level of coverage. Take an honest look at your budget and ask yourself how much you could reliably spend on repairs. If it wouldn't hurt your financial situation to make a payment of a certain size, there is no reason that you should be paying a higher premium for the extra coverage. Your deductible should be roughly equivalent to the amount you are willing to spend on your vehicle without hurting yourself financially. A smaller deductible only means that you will pay more for your premium than you need to. A larger deductible means that you will be putting yourself in an uncomfortable credit situation.

Craig Lake State Park is the most remote state park in the system. Access into the park can be an adventure. Vehicles with high ground clearance are recommended. The park contains six full lakes and a variety of wildlife such as deer, black bear, beaver, loons and moose.
It is the most remote state park in Michigan. A long, slow drive to get to the parking lot. Very quiet, peaceful. Bugs can be very bad in early July.
Used to camp there often. The road up to the lake was usually washed out bad so a mere 5-6 mi took an hour. When u reach the parking area you have to hike the last 1/4 mi to the lake which only has 3 rustic campsites. But if you like solitude.. this is perfect! Then you can spend your time hiking to Claire & teddy lakes and others. Watch eagles and moose as u sip your coffee and let the loons sing you to sleep at nite. ❤
The road you drive on to get back to the parking lot is an adventure in itself. I don't need to ever drive down that road again. It is a one lane road that had cars going both ways and blind corners. This road is 7 miles long and you could go about 10 mph. The lake was amazing
One of my favorite places in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, a great hike especially if you bring your fishing gear. Craig Lake State Park is filled with little lakes and as long as you don't go in the early spring the insects are bearable and well worth it.

Astrid Muldoon - French Wave Champ 2008 !
Astrid reports: "Carnac signs the last competition of a nice season filled well between World Cup and championship competitions in France. To finish this last competition on Brittanys coast with very good conditions of sailing was a true happiness for all the competitors. The organization of the Yacht Club of Carnac was extraordinary allowing us to express ourselves under all colours of Brittany: the wind, the waves, the rain and the sun! Every day was filled well with battles in the water. For my part I had a lot of pleasure race in slalom in an absolutely grandiose frame.
A great wave day was announced and we ripped in side on-shore conditions in 2-3 meter waves. The heats are advancing and I make it to the finals. As the wind turns more onshore, I am wave riding and looping on my JP Twinser 76l (what a great board!) and my Zone 4.7 and I win this wave competition.
After the finals we pack up the equipment and as the wind is getting stronger and the ocean grows , I go back out sailing along with Julien Taboulet, Regis Bouron and Bastien Ribaucourt, using my 68l Twinser and my Zone 3.5. This day will remain in my memory.
This victory, along with the one in Carro in the beginning of the year, also gives me the French Champion Title in Waves 2008! At the same time I am respectfully on the 3rd step on the Podium for the overall result 2008 (combined result of waves & Slalom)."

CRP (High Sensitivity) assay
|CRP (High Sensitivity) assay
|Latex Enhanced Immunoturbidimetric
|R1 2 x 13ml, R2 2 x 13ml
|Shipping costs will be added at the checkout stage, click here for charges.
- Format
Liquid ready-to-use
- Assay Range
0.270 - 9.07mg/l
- Working Stability 2-8 °C
Stable to expiry
Intended Use
A CRP test system is a device intended for the quantitative in vitro determination of C-reactive protein (CRP) concentration in serum or plasma. This product is suitable for use on RX series analyser RX suzuka.
Clinical Significance
C-reactive protein is present in serum of normal individuals at levels between 0-5mg/l.
Research has indicated that CRP levels, which are within the normal range, can be used in a variety of different population subgroups for the assessment of cardiovascular risk for developing a fatal myocardial infarction. CRP levels within the normal range have been associated with coronary heart disease mortality in high-risk individuals. Elevated serum cholesterol levels, elevated diastolic blood pressure and cigarette smoking indicate high-risk.
A complete clinical history is required for accurate interpretation of CRP levels. CRP levels within the normal range may be affected by a number of different factors and should always be compared to previous values.
Sample is reacted with a buffer and anti-CRP coated latex. The formation of the antibody-antigen complex during the reaction results in an increase in turbidity, the extent of which is measured as the amount of light absorbed at 570 nm. By constructing a standard curve from the absorbance of the standards, CRP concentration of sample can be determined.
Available Applications

If the solar system was brought about by an accidental collision, then the appearance of organic life on this planet was also an accident, and the whole evolution of Man was an accident too. If so, then all our present thoughts are mere accidents – the accidental by-product of the movement of atoms. And this holds for the thoughts of the materialists and astronomers as well as for anyone else's. But if their thoughts – i.e., Materialism and Astronomy – are mere accidental by-products, why should we believe them to be true? I see no reason for believing that one accident should be able to give me a correct account of all the other accidents. It's like expecting the accidental shape taken by the splash when you upset a milk-jug should give you a correct account of how the jug was made and why it was upset."
C.S. Lewis
"Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing had happened".

Strabismus is an eye condition in which the eyes to not work together because one or both of the eyes drift to an incorrect position. This could be an inward, outward, upward or downward turn. This can cause double vision, blurry vision and /or poor depth perception.
In many cases, this is not a matter of inferior muscles, but how the brain controls the muscles. After surgery the eyes appear to be straight, the brain still doesn't know how to properly team the eyes together binocularly. As a result, the brain will continue to suppress vision out of one eye.
At Pediatric & Adult Vision Care therapy is completed one-on-one with a therapist, under doctor supervision. State-of-the-art technology is incorporated into sessions making treatment a hands-on and interactive experience. Vision therapy is an effective alternative to strabismus surgery. Activities are specially designed to not only align the eyes cosmetically, but also improve binocular function. Tools such as lenses, filters, computer optics, and prisms are used to help develop proper eye control when treating Strabismus.

Yesterday was "one of those days." And a mere hour into today, it seemed
as though it would be another bad one.
Wednesday is the newspaper's production day; it's the day we take all
our articles, photos, whatever and send them off for the printer for
publishing. The deadline is final. We MUST have a paper on Thursday so
not sending it on Wednesday is not an option.
Well, yesterday, the day care called around 10 a.m. to let me know that
I needed to pick up my son. My husband was unavailable until 3 p.m. and
I couldn't reach my friend on the phone to see if I could drop him off.
So he came to work with me.
This morning, my boss tells me that someone who'd called during all of
yesterday's madness was upset that she was having to call so many
different numbers. She called me first, but I couldn't help her. In her
words, actually, "She called and a woman answered the phone and all I
could hear was a baby screaming in the background."
I try hard not to let my personal life effect my work life. When I was
pregnant, I worked up until the day I went into labor. I walked, I stood
in the heat, I laid down on the ground to get photos, even when my belly
got in the way. I agreed to take the minimum 6 weeks off from work; four
weeks after the baby was born, I was back to work, at least part-time. I
carried the baby on my hip in a sling as I took photos and conducted
interviews. So, having someone call on a rare day when the baby had to
be here for most of the day and having said person hear him in the
background and comment on it was disturbing, to say the least.
My supervisors have been incredibly supportive through all of the
appointments, missed work hours and bring-the-baby-to-work days. But, it
makes me look unprofessional, I know; and I just can't shake the feeling
that I'm now one of those people who is failing miserably at being a
working mom. I know that tomorrow, or the next day, or Monday (at the
latest), I will be over this and will have moved on to the next thing
that has me all stressed out.
But right now, today, I feel like I'm on a derailed train and I'm trying
my hardest to figure out how to get it back on track.
I'm a 30-something wife. Writer. Strong black woman. Let me give you a glimpse into my world. The Good and bad. Beautiful and ugly. Funny and sad. Let me open your eyes ...

You're doing great! Unfortunately, that person took a snapshot of your life that could never capture the essence of the whole picture. It's not fair, but it happens. You know why your son was there. You know that you did what you had to do. That's all that matters.

AMEN to that! Take what life gives you, work it out, and anyone who Ian't on Team Crystal can take a walk! You're doing a great job!

One root for every soil: a double-personality tale
In biology, life success is based on the ability to have offspring. For that, before reproduction, organisms must deal with different and sometimes unfriendly situations. The capacity to overcome environmental challenges increases the possibility to have descendants, and will determine then that organism's life success. A... click to read more

A brace from Wayne Rooney sealed a 4-0 victory and an emphatic 7-2 aggregate scoreline as Manchester United romped past Milan at Old Trafford to clinch their place in the Champions League quarter-finals.
Rooney gave United the lead in just the 13th minute with a sublime glancing header, and the England forward netted his 30th goal of the season with a deft finish seconds after half-time to stun the visitors.
David Beckham was confined to the Milan bench from the outset, but the former United midfielder had to wait until his side were 3-0 down before he was introduced after Park Ji-Sung slammed a fierce shot beyond Christian Abbiati just before the hour-mark.
Darren Fletcher capped an imperious display from the English champions with a fourth goal in the 88th minute, and Milan and Beckham were left utterly shell-shocked at the final whistle.
Rooney almost gave the hosts the lead in the fourth minute as he swivelled on the edge of the Milan box to latch on to Antonio Valencia's cut back and fired a low shot which he dragged narrowly wide of Christian Abbiati's near post.
Milan were hardly subdued at the other end, as Andrea Pirlo whipped over a devilish delivery in the eighth minute which Nani inadvertently flicked over to Ronaldinho, but the Brazilian's header drifted narrowly wide.
Two minutes later, Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, who flanked Marco Borriello along with Ronaldinho, stole in at the back post beyond Patrice Evra to receive Thiago Silva's raking diagonal pass from the back, but his first touch was sloppy as the ball evaded him.
Neville was preferred to Rafael at right-back for United, and Sir Alex Ferguson's decision was vindicated as the skipper picked out Rooney with a pinpoint cross from the right as United stamped their authority on the match in the 13th minute.
Rooney's exquisitely-timed run caught Daniele Bonera napping as the forward climbed above his marker to glance a deft finish beyond a helpless Abbiati and score his third headed goal in the tie.
Milan looked devoid of ideas in attack as they sought to redress the balance of the tie and, as Ronaldinho and Huntelaar were dragged outwide to gain possession, Borriello was left increasingly isolated and stifled for space.
Veteran midfielder Clarence Seedorf was introduced at half-time as the Rossoneri looked to inject some impetus into their midfield, but it was United who began the half in sparkling fashion.
Nani surged down the left wing at blistering pace before the Portugese's precise cut back was dabbed past the onrushing Abbiati by Rooney with the utmost swagger and composure.
Milan were left horribly exposed as their three-pronged attack offered about as much defensively as they did in forward areas, and United capitalised in the 59th minute to kill the tie.
Paul Scholes found Park in behind Marek Jankulovski, and the midfielder's low shot fizzed into the bottom corner to make it three in the 59th minute as the hosts were rampant.
Then ensued a procession of substitutions as both managers recognised that the tie had been effectively decided, and the first to make his entrance was Beckham, to a standing ovation from the Old Trafford crowd.
Rooney was withdrawn to a rapturous reception as the forward was denied a potential second hat-trick, and Paul Scholes and Neville departed swiftly afterwards.
The evening was capped off by Fletcher in the 88th minute as the midfielder capitalised on more shoddy defending by the visitors to turn home Rafael's deep cross and make it four.
United swagger through to the quarter-finals after humbling Milan over the two legs, as Rooney yet again established himself as one of the world's most potent attacking forces.

What do the Arts Alive Virtual Dance Studio and The Help Kids Learn Train Tracker game have in common? For me, it's that they are two online programs that I use regularly, with kids needing some quiet time to self regulate, when the classroom environment becomes too overwhelming. A five minute stint on one of these programs can mean the difference between a 'meltdown' and being able to successfully re-engage in classroom activities, for some of my students.
I use lots of interactive software programs in my work with children on the autism spectrum. These two, are my most often requested recreational or calming activities for mainstream primary students. The key seems to be that they provide children with the opportunity to make simple choices, which helps them gain a sense of control over their environment again.
Both are great fun to play and I must warn you that they are highly addictive. You may want to set yourself a time limit before trying them out. A timer is a definite must when using them with kids in the classroom.

Greenhouse Restoration & Repair
The greenhouse restoration and repair projects we undertake vary widely depending on the overall condition of the greenhouse structure and our customers' requirements.
Pages Greenhouses only use hardwood in all timber restorations and repairs.
We can restore greenhouses with our new dry glaze system on traditional sash glazing bars, for lower maintenance and durability in the long term.
Greenhouse restoration and repair examples may include:
- A complete restoration where existing timber is in poor condition, replacing the original greenhouse in hardwood timber
- Use of photos of the original greenhouse to re-construct all the original features
- Replacing timber where necessary and re-strengthening
Whether you are a keen grower or a weekend gardener, Pages Greenhouses can restore or repair your greenhouse to suit you and your garden.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you need planning permission for a greenhouse?
As an outbuilding, greenhouses do not come under planning permission but must be under four metres in height. There are other details to consider such as listed buildings and greenhouses attached to houses.
Can you give me advice on restoring or replacing my greenhouse?
Absolutely! Advice on this subject can help determine your next step.
What are the sizes of your greenhouses?
There are no set factory sizes - each greenhouse is bespoke to the customer's exact requirements.
Where can we see one of your greenhouses?
Within our customer portfolio many are happy to show their greenhouse to other customers. All of the greenhouses shown in the galleries on this website are greenhouses built, replaced or restored by Pages Greenhouses.
Why are there no prices on your website?
Simply because no greenhouse build, replacement or restoration project has ever been the same as the next.
Tell me about.....Greenhouse Foundations
When planning a new greenhouse the base work is very important - from the location, to the levels in the garden and soil conditions. These will determine the correct depth and width of your perimeter concrete footings for your brickwork to go onto.
Tell me about.....Greenhouse Brickwork
The brickwork of your bespoke garden greenhouse only needs to be a single course brickwork, with no D.P.C. (Damp Proof Course). The hardest decision may be the choice of brick and brickwork height you would like. Many greenhouses have a brickwork height of approximately 750mm or top benching inside finished at working height.
Tell me about.....Greenhouse Staging
Inside staging or benching can be provided either in aluminium or traditional slatted staging in standard sizes or bespoke to any size required.
Tell me about.....Greenhouse Power, Heating and Lighting
With a power supply to the greenhouse you can have greenhouse water proof sockets; heating installed; and white lighting for those darker winter months. The most cost effective heating is normally electric heater tubes with a thermostatic control - extra blow heaters may be required for larger greenhouses if you are trying to hold a higher temperature.
Tell me about.....Greenhouse Interior Design
When considering the size of your greenhouse at the planning stage, consideration of your interior design, layout and the growing area are very important. You may have a combination of staging and soil growing areas - perhaps with a centre path design (depending on your requirements), but this will determine how you will use your greenhouse growing area.
Tell me about.....Greenhouse Blinds
Our greenhouse blinds are made from non-fabric material and come in a mesh screen format. They are available in an inside roller blind design, built to your bespoke requirements.
I have lots more Questions...
Great - just contact us and we'll do our level best to answer them!.
