COLUMBUS, Ohio — Jim Tressel, who guided Ohio State to its first national title in 34 years, resigned Monday amid NCAA violations from a tattoo-parlor scandal that sullied the image of one of the country's top football programs.
"After meeting with university officials, we agreed that it is in the best interest of Ohio State that I resign as head football coach," Tressel wrote in the resignation letter he submitted on Monday morning. "The recent situation has been a distraction for our great university and I make this decision for the greater good of the school."
Luke Fickell will be the coach for the 2011 season. He already had been selected to be the interim coach while Tressel served a five-game suspension.
Ohio State spokesman Jim Lynch said he was unaware of any buyout or severance package. He added that Tressel had returned from vacation Sunday night and met with athletic director Gene Smith, who then met with staff. Tressel typed his resignation and submitted it to Smith, he said.
Under terms of Tressel's contract, which was worth around $3.5 million a year through the 2014 season, Ohio State is not required to pay him any money or provide any benefits upon his resignation.
In a university video posted on YouTube.com, Smith said Tressel met with his Buckeyes players on Monday morning.
"Coach Tressel did what we all knew he would do," Smith said. "He did an eloquent job of explaining to the young men what transition really means and what they really needed to focus on. So he met with the team and exited."
Smith went on to thank Tressel, express his confidence in Fickell and to say that Ohio State would not comment on "any of the matters around (the NCAA) case or any further accusations that may emerge."
The resignation was first reported by The Columbus Dispatch.
Clearly, the turmoil had been building. The resignation comes nearly three months after Ohio State called a news conference to announce it has suspended Tressel for two games — later increasing the ban to five games to coincide with the players' punishment — and fined him $250,000 for knowing his players had received improper benefits from a local tattoo-parlor owner. The school said at the time it was "very surprised and disappointed" in Tressel. Yet, the school still managed to crack jokes.
Asked if he considered firing Tressel, Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee said then: "No, are you kidding? Let me just be very clear: I'm just hopeful the coach doesn't dismiss me."
Gee was not joking about the Tressel situation over the weekend. Ohio State released a letter from Gee to the university's board of trustees which said, "As you all know, I appointed a special committee to analyze and provide advice to me regarding issues attendant to our football program. In consultation with the senior leadership of the university and the senior leadership of the board, I have been actively reviewing the matter and have accepted coach Tressel's resignation."
Tressel's downfall came with public and media pressure mounting on Ohio State, its board of trustees, Gee and Smith.
"We look forward to refocusing the football program on doing what we do best — representing this extraordinary university and its values on the field, in the classroom, and in life," Smith said in a statement Monday. "We look forward to supporting Luke Fickell in his role as our football coach. We have full confidence in his ability to lead our football program."
Tressel and Ohio State were to go before the NCAA's infractions committee Aug. 12 to answer questions about the player violations and why Tressel did not report them. He denied knowledge of improper benefits to players until confronted by investigators with emails that showed he had known since April 2010.
After several NCAA violations by him or his players over the years, Tressel's problems deepened after learning several players received cash or discounted tattoos. Contrary to NCAA bylaws — and his own contract — Tressel received emails from a former player about this and did not tell his athletic director, university president, compliance or legal departments or the NCAA for more than nine months.
The 58-year-old Tressel had a record of 106-22-0 at Ohio State. He led the Buckeyes to eight Bowl Championship Series games in his 10 years. Combined with a 135-57-2 record in 15 years at Youngstown State, where he won four Division I-AA national championships, Tressel's career mark was 241-79-2.
He'd gotten into trouble with the NCAA even before coming to Ohio State. He was the coach at Youngstown State when it received scholarship and recruiting restrictions for violations involving star quarterback Ray Isaacs.

New Delhi, April 26 : A mother to a 26-year-old man or a sex worker, actress Priyanka Bose has slipped into various characters. She says she has to love what she does, and on-screen roles that revolve around misogyny don't fit the bill -- which is why she will never play such characters.
"Roles that involve misogyny are something that I will never do, simply because I personally oppose it," Priyanka, best known for featuring in the Oscar-nominated film "Lion", told IANS in an email interview.
She played a sex worker in "Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani" and "Sold". The upcoming film "Ascharya F#*k It" will again show her as a sex worker. Doesn't she feel like she has been typecast?"Not really. It's the nature of the business. I give my best to every role that I get. Only, of course, I have to love what I am doing... only then can the best come out of my performances," said the artiste, who has played "small but impactful, very meaty and powerful" roles in Bollywood films like "Love Sex aur Dhokha" and "Johnny Gaddaar".
"If I don't feel it, I won't do it. I'm not bound by duty, I'm bound by whether I'm going to be good at it or not. In addition, of course, the script has to be good for me to keep working."
"Ascharya F#*k It", backed by Yoodlee films, Saregama India's movie production venture, revolves around the lives of a prostitute, her pimp who loves her, a Bollywood superstar and his driver.
Is India ready for such bold films?
"Although I cannot answer that on behalf of the audience, I think it is high time that they embrace such content. The art and thought behind such content is worth witnessing," said Priyanka.
"Ascharya F#*k It" is inspired by the works of controversial writer Saadat Hasan Manto. She is will be seen in another film, which is also an adaptation of a novel.
"I enjoy reading prose and poems a lot. Short stories are my favourite and I love reading children's books a lot too," said the actress.
If she could bring any character to life from a book, she said she would pick Mata Hari -- an exotic dancer and courtesan who was convicted of being a spy for Germany during World War I.
"But she was Dutch and I am not fair skinned, so unfortunately I can't play her, but I would definitely love to watch a film adaptation on screen," said the "Guzaarish" actress.
Priyanka is currently "waiting in anticipation" for "Ascharya F#*k It", helmed by director Samit Kakkad, to release.
The two worked together in the Marathi film "Half Ticket".
"It was a lot more comfortable this time, as we understand each other much better, both professionally and on a personal level. Samit always brings out the best in his actors. Working with him is a great experience and we have a very good working relationship," she said.

The name alone strikes you; Fashion 4 Compassion. You just can't help but wonder what a beautiful name. Here at the Miami Style Magazine we would like to take the time to introduce a very special project . This is one of the few projects that I truly support because of the source of their start in the industry.
So what is F4C? Is a beautiful company that receives donated designer shoes and handbags from fashion moguls like you and I and then auction the items online to give the proceeds to victims of human trafficking. When I first came across this project I shed so many tears of joy to know there is some people out there who is making a fashionable contribution to help someone in need. Did you know that 80 percent of the worlds population women and children are going through this everyday.
What I truly love about this site is that it comes from my home state. It brings a sense of pride to know Florida cares.
On this site you have a wide range of designers that are being auctioned to the new favorites to the die hard must haves. Instead of wondering aimlessly in Aventura Mall or Pembroke Lakes Mall why wont you stop by this online store and try to get a few things. In this case at least you wont feel too guilty and you will be content to know your purchase has made a difference in someone's life.
If you are the type who shops and forgets stuff in the back of your closet do the next best thing; clean it out. Donate to this beautiful cause to aide a struggling single mother or two orphaned brothers who barely can survive.
This site is a huge eye opener for me and I am so honored to be made aware of it. Do you want to make a difference? Make a stand right here on this web link
Toodles For Now,
Where we feel that FASHION is a MUST

Today I help a little boy find some books on a certain topic he was really excited to learn more about. He was actually bouncing up and down while I searched for his books then hugged them to his chest with the biggest grin and widest eyes I'd ever seen on a happy little face. He was practically skipping as he went to check out his books. What was this thrilling subject that had him so excited?
The Digestive System.
Yep. That's right. His mom told me he's been obsessed with learning about the subject ever since his dad had to go to the hospital to get his gall bladder removed. Hey, whatever makes him happy, eh?

Critical Care
First Online: 25 April 2014Received: 18 October 2013Accepted: 25 February 2014
IntroductionHeparin is safe and prevents venous thromboembolism in critical illness. We aimed to determine the guideline concordance for thromboprophylaxis in critically ill patients and its predictors, and to analyze factors associated with the use of low molecular weight heparin LMWH, as it may be associated with a lower risk of pulmonary embolism and heparin-induced thrombocytopenia without increasing the bleeding risk.
MethodsWe performed a retrospective audit in 28 North American intensive care units ICUs, including all consecutive medical-surgical patients admitted in November 2011. We documented ICU thromboprophylaxis and reasons for omission. Guideline concordance was determined by adding days in which patients without contraindications received thromboprophylaxis to days in which patients with contraindications did not receive it, divided by the total number of patient-days. We used multilevel logistic regression including time-varying, center and patient-level covariates to determine the predictors of guideline concordance and use of LMWH.
ResultsWe enrolled 1,935 patients 62.3 ± 16.7 years, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation APACHE II score 19.1 ± 8.3. Patients received thromboprophylaxis with unfractionated heparin UFH 54.0% or LMWH 27.6%. Guideline concordance occurred for 95.5% patient-days and was more likely in patients who were sicker odds ratio OR 1.49, 95% confidence interval CI 1.17, 1.75 per 10-point increase in APACHE II, heavier OR 1.32, 95% CI 1.05, 1.65 per 10-m-kg increase in body mass index, had cancer OR 3.22, 95% CI 1.81, 5.72, previous venous thromboembolism OR 3.94, 95% CI 1.46,10.66, and received mechanical ventilation OR 1.83, 95% CI 1.32,2.52. Reasons for not receiving thromboprophylaxis were high risk of bleeding 44.5%, current bleeding 16.3%, no reason 12.9%, recent or upcoming invasive procedure 10.2%, nighttime admission or discharge 9.7%, and life-support limitation 6.9%. LMWH was less often administered to sicker patients OR 0.65, 95% CI 0.48, 0.89 per 10-point increase in APACHE II, surgical patients OR 0.41, 95% CI 0.24, 0.72, those receiving vasoactive drugs OR 0.47, 95% CI 0.35, 0.64 or renal replacement therapy OR 0.10, 95% CI 0.05, 0.23.
ConclusionsGuideline concordance for thromboprophylaxis was high, but LMWH was less commonly used, especially in patients who were sicker, had surgery, or received vasopressors or renal replacement therapy, representing a potential quality improvement target.

"For you are all children of light and children of the day;
we are not of the night or of darkness." 1 Thessalonians 5.5
On Maundy Thursday we remember Jesus giving us the sacrament of Holy Communion, the foot washing and the betrayal of Jesus. John in his Gospel makes the point that as Judas was leaving to go and betray Jesus--it was night. Night in John's Gospel especially is a vivid metaphor for all those things that run counter to God. Judas of course goes out to betray Jesus at night, because he has been overcome by the darkness of this world. This is not our lot!
|BABUREN, Dirck van Christ Washing the Apostles Feet
c. 1616
This happens when we follow his example of washing feet. That is, to serve each other, and to find in service to the other the highest calling of the Christian life. This reality gets shown in the parable of the Sheep and the Goats which suggests that the mystery of the incarnation (God come to us in Christ) continues to be lived out in the love that we show for one another. Tonight at worship I'll undoubtedly talk about the sacrament and about what it means to come to the family table of our Lord; but I'll probably also call us back to the family business....we do feet. That's what it means to be a child of the light.
A prayer: "Dear Lord, help us to let our light so shine before others that they might see you reflected in what we do. Amen"

Blue Letter Bible offers several daily devotional readings in order to help you refocus on Christ and the Gospel of His peace and righteousness.
Recognizing the value of consistent reflection upon the Word of God in order to refocus one's mind and heart upon Christ and His Gospel of peace, we provide several reading plans designed to cover the entire Bible in a year.
Jacob's Well:
(pege tou Iakob):
1. Position of Well:
In Joh 4:3 ff we read that our Lord "left Judea, and departed again into Galilee. And he must needs pass through Samaria. So he cometh to a city of Samaria, called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph: and Jacob's well was there." When Jacob came to Shechem on his return from Paddanaram he encamped "before," i.e. East of the city, and bought the land on which he had spread his tent (Ge 33:18 f). This is doubtless the "portion" (Hebrew shekhem) spoken of in Ge 48:22; although there it is said to have been taken with sword and bow from the Amorites. Where the pass of Shechem opens to the East, near the northern edge of the valley, lies the traditional tomb of Joseph. On the other side of the vale, close to the base of Gerizim, is the well universally known as Bir Yaqub, "the well of Jacob." The position meets perfectly the requirements of the narrative. The main road from the South splits a little to the East, one arm leading westward through the pass, the other going more directly to the North. It is probable that these paths follow pretty closely the ancient tracks; and both would be frequented in Jesus' day. Which of them He took we cannot tell; but, in any case, this well lay in the fork between them, and could be approached with equal ease from either.
See SYCHAR.
2. Why Dug:
In the chapter quoted, it is said that Jacob dug the well (Ge 48:12). The Old Testament says nothing of this. With the copious springs at Ain Askar and BalaTa, one might ask why a well should have been dug here at all. We must remember that in the East, very strict laws have always governed the use of water, especially when there were large herds to be considered. The purchase of land here may not have secured for Jacob such supplies as he required. There was danger of strife between rival herdsmen. The patriarch, therefore, may have dug the well in the interests of peace, and also to preserve his own independence.
3. Consensus of Tradition:
Jew, Samaritan, Moslem and Christian agree in associating this well with the patriarch Jacob. This creates a strong presumption in favor of the tradition: and there is no good reason to doubt its truth. Standing at the brink of the well, over-shadowed by the giant bulk of Gerizim, one feels how naturally it would be spoken of as "this mountain."
4. Description:
For long the well was unprotected, opening among the ruins of a vaulted chamber some feet below the surface of the ground. Major Anderson describes it (Recovery of Jerusalem, 465) as having "a narrow opening, just wide enough to allow the body of a man to pass through with arms uplifted, and this narrow neck, which is about 4 ft. long, opens into the well itself, which is cylindrically shaped, and about 7 ft. 6 inches in diameter. The mouth and upper part of the well are built of masonry, and the well appears to have been sunk through a mixture of alluvial soil and limestone fragments, till a compact bed of mountain limestone was reached, having horizontal strata which could be easily worked; and the interior of the well presents the appearance of having been lined throughout with rough masonry." The depth was doubtless much greater in ancient times; but much rubbish has fallen into it, and now it is not more than 75 ft. deep. It is fed by no spring, nor is the water conducted to it along the surface, as to a cistern. Its supplies depend entirely upon rainfall and percolation. Possibly, therefore, the water may never have approached the brim. The woman says "the well is deep." Pege, "spring," does not, therefore, strictly apply to it, but rather "tank" or "reservoir," phrear, the word actually used in verses 11 f. The modern inhabitants of Nablus highly esteem the "light" water of the well as compared with the "heavy" or "hard" water of the neighboring springs. It usually lasts till about the end of May; then the well is dry till the return of the rain. Its contents, therefore, differ from the "living" water of the perennial spring.
From the narratives of the pilgrims we learn that at different times churches have been built over the well. The Moslems probably demolished the last of them after the overthrow of the Crusaders in 1187. A description of the ruins with drawings, as they were 30 years ago, is given in PEF, II, 174, etc. A stone found in 1881 may have been the original cover of the well. It measures 3 ft. 9 inches X 2 ft. 7 inches X 1 ft. 6 in. The aperture in the center is 13 in. in diameter; and in its sides are grooves worn by the ropes used in drawing up the water (PEFS, 1881, 212 ff).
5. Present Condition:
Some years ago the plot of ground containing the well was purchased by the authorities of the Greek church, and it has been surrounded by a wall. A chapel has been built over the well, and a large church building has also been erected beside it.

NJ.com is attempting to map out the NHL fandom boundaries of New Jersey between the Devils, Rangers, and Flyers.
Which @NHL team owns NJ? http://t.co/k0WLWG7cBx Help fill interactive map @NHLDevils @NYRangers @FlyersNation pic.twitter.com/hr4DkAPsBQ
— John D. Shabe (@johndshabe) June 4, 2015
To give us a starting point, I asked NJ Advance Media Reporter Rich Chere for his thoughts on where the fan boundaries lie. He posited that the northern half of the state is a mixture of Rangers and Devils fans, while south of Princeton is comprised primarily of Flyers faithful.
I gave the tie to the home team up north, with the exception of Hudson County, but if you disagree with the assessment, it won't take long to change. This map will be a reflection of each team's respective fan bases, so vote early and vote often.
To vote, fill out the survey in the article by picking a county, a town, and where your NHL affiliation stands.

Struggling to Serve at the Nation's Richest University
By Rosa Ines Rivera
The New York Times, October 24, 2016
I've been at Harvard University for 17 years, but I've never been in a classroom here. I'm a cook in the dining halls. I work in the cafeteria at the T.H. Chan School of Public Health, where every day I serve amazing students studying medicine, nutrition and child welfare, as well as the doctors and researchers who train them.
While I've earned no college credits here, I've had a lesson in hypocrisy.
On my way to work each morning, I pass a building with the inscription: "The highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being." If Harvard believes this, why is the administration asking dining hall workers to pay even more for our health care even though some of us pay as much as $4,000 a year in premiums alone?
I serve the people who created Obamacare, people who treat epidemics and devise ways to make the world healthier and more humane. But I can't afford the health care plan Harvard wants us to accept.
That's why I have been on strike with 750 co-workers for more than two weeks. That's why the other day, co-workers and I were arrested after we sat down in Harvard Square, blocking traffic, in an act of civil disobedience. And that's why the medical school students, in their white coats, have been walking the picket line with us in solidarity.
Medical students analyzed Harvard's proposal and found that the cost of premiums alone could eat up almost 10 percent of my income.
The students say that Harvard's proposal is unaffordable for nearly all of us according to state government guidelines. If it goes through, I will keep avoiding the doctor to save that money for my kids' co-pays. Any increase puts me at the breaking point.
Harvard is the richest university in the nation, with a $35 billion endowment. But I can't live on what Harvard pays me. I take home between $430 and $480 a week, and this August, I fell behind on my $1,150 rent and lost my apartment. Now my two kids and I are staying with my mother in public housing, with all four of us sharing a single bedroom.
I know that health care costs are going up everywhere, and I don't have all the answers. But there must be some way not to shift costs onto Harvard's poorest workers.
If good health is truly "one of the fundamental rights of every human being," then shouldn't that also apply to the human beings working in Harvard's cafeterias?
Published comment:
By Don McCanne, M.D.
San Juan Capistrano, CA
In my work, volunteering as a health policy fellow for Physicians for a National Health Program, I follow the health policy literature, including that produced by Harvard's T.H. Chan School of Public Health.
They devote much of their research to tweaking the highly flawed policies that have resulted in the most expensive health care system but one that is infamous for its mediocre performance for far too many. In spite of the Affordable Care Act, tens of millions remain uninsured or underinsured, creating for them financial hardship and impaired access.
The academic community is quite aware that a well designed single payer system funded with the 3 trillion dollars that we are already spending would provide high quality, comprehensive care for everyone with no financial barriers such as those that are being forced upon their dining hall workers.
It is reassuring for our future that the students seem to understand, but it is astonishing that too many of the academics seem to be oblivious. They should be leading the protest, not only at Harvard, but throughout the nation.
President Obama gave a great speech this past week defending our dysfunctional system while once again dismissing single payer, yet he cited many deficiencies that would be adequately corrected only with comprehensive reform and not mere tweaks. He knows that single payer is the way to go, and he need only look at the dining hall workers at his alma mater as a reminder of why we need to take that course.

It can serve several purposes well:
- Give suggestions for material to give to students who are working at or ahead of grade level, to enable a richer experience at the current grade level before moving on.
- Provide a guide to developmentally appropriate material in the geometry, measurement, data and statistics strands.
- Point to applicable Problem Solving resources that can supplement the calculations that are being taught at each level.
While the list is not a complete mapping of all available curriculum on all applicable topics, it does point at many of the most appropriate resources for students at each Mathnasium Assessment Level. There is work underway to expand and improve the list, as well make the the assignment of these resources more efficient within M2.

|Gascoigne of Parlington Hall
This is far from being the extent of the non-Spanish gems in Cádiz records. Recently while examining records of Cádiz' cathedral I stumbled across a good example.
The marriage register for 1722-1729 bears on Page 219 an entry for the marriage, on 24 September 1727, of 'Don Juan Gascoygne' of 'Parlinton, Obispado Eboracense', son of John Gascoigne and María Widdrington; to 'Doña Margarita Patricia Ana María Ley', a native of Cádiz, daughter of Lorenzo Ley and Catalina Warnes. The witnesses were Fray Francisco Ley, of the Barefoot Franciscans, and Don Lorenzo Carew.
The connexions of both 'Lorenzos' - Lawrence Ley and Lawrence Carew (of the Waterford Carews) - have already been extensively analysed and written up in Spanish publications; but until now this link to the recusant Gascoignes of Parlington Hall had, I believe, escaped notice. This couple is mentioned in the published version of Dugdale's visitation of Yorkshire (Vol. III, P. 102) in which the bride's name is rendered as 'Anna Leigh' with no particulars of her origin or eventual fate.
Assorted publications state that John Gascoigne died in June 1729 without issue, but as no source is given for this information, nor is the place of death recorded, it would perhaps be as well to double-check this at some future date. His widow, Margarita Patricia Ley, remarried in 1730 and had at least one child by her second husband: Francisco de Paula VanHalen Ley.

text: Im one of those people who gets very 'invested' in their work. I take it as a personal insult when things break and it always frustrates me when systems cause unexpected downtime. Because I'm the system administrator. Its my job to keep things running. Indeed, one of my personal beliefs, is that if you see me actually working, then Im not doing my job right. Today was one of those days. The table shook and the dominos fell. I've spent a good number of months working on deploying CRM for our company. Recently I have spend a few days training the sales staff on its use and how to enter the information properly so that we can effectivley use the system. I felt good. The sales team felt good. We were all going to benefit from it. Until this morning, when I realised that the emails entered by the sales people were not being sent out. Hmm... Weird. Then I realised that I hadnt setup their CRM profile to allow it to send on their behalf. "No problem", thinks me. Just complete these entry boxes and all done. Well, computer said "No". Not gonna do it. Further investigation led me to a problem with the Email Router configuration - namely that the config application wouldnt open. So I called up some CRM gurus. "Try installing the latest Rollup, 14, I think." Seemed logical. Now CRM doesnt work at all. But right now, Im not feeling bad. stuff happens. Bad stuff happens, and usually to good people. But the world is still spinning, no one was killed (yet) and we are working on the issue. The sales team are aware of the issue, as I have been emailing them updates through the process, so they are not jumping down my throat yet. I dont mean to come across as not caring, but I am trying to make an effort to not let crap beyond my control piss me off. And hopefully, I might not get an ulcer and make it to my next birthday.

Finally it's the school holidays! They couldn't come quick enough for me!
During the first week, I was lucky enough to go to the Melbourne Zoo. My friend Gemma came with us, but I think everyone took advantage of the nice weather on Tuesday because it was a total traffic jam when we tried to drive in. It took us twenty minutes to just find a park, but then mum said that we should queue up around the back because it would be quicker. Sure enough, we grabbed a map and some of the zoo brochures and rushed out towards the reptile house. My brother, Fintan, brought a friend as well and his name was Jacob, and he told us he was really good at reading a map, so he started with it while Fintan was holding the bag that had the drink bottles in it.
Jacob directed us to the reptile house and we saw lots of animals including snakes, lizards, turtles and frogs. It was really dark in there, and there were some tanks that had mysterious purple lamps lighting up the room. We stepped out into the blinding sunshine and then swapped over the map and the bag. Now Gemma chose to visit the giant turtles, that were really boring because they didn't do anything but sleep. After some wandering around, we ended up looking at the Australian animals. We saw koalas, emus, wombats and Tasmanian devils while we were following the trail.
Once we had finished looking at them, everyone started to get hungry. Yet again, we swapped the bag and the map around and found a place to sit down. It was on a big grassy area where there were lots of busy families and stalls selling food and drinks around it. Mum gave us some money to buy an icy pole each and then we watched everyone go passed and looked at the map that I was now holding to see where we wanted to go next. I suggested that we go to the hippos, but Fintan wanted to see the crocodiles. Mum then said that we could visit three more animals and then we had to go home. We wandered over to where the crocodiles rested and Gemma and I looked at the penguins, who were playing cheerfully in an enclosure next to the crocs. They were so cute! When it was time to go home, we had a competition to see who could find out car amongst the sea of colours that were all parked around ours. Gemma won and soon we were heading back home. At least there were other things to look forward to for the rest of the holidays!

Turns out JonBenet Ramsey wasn't killed by her rich, overly-coiffed parents. The DA recently id'd DNA from skin cells left at the crime scene, determined that it couldn't have been the parents, and dropped all charges.
The Ramsey's whole life was shot over this death. They moved from Atlanta, and, while rich, they've had to lay very low. JonBenet's mother died of cancer in 2006, still under the pall of accusations, and now the father and son have nothing but their defamation suits to comfort them.
I'll admit thinking these folks were guilty as sin when I first heard of the case. C'mon. Her name is made up of her father's names (John Bennett), she was a pageant competitor before she hit grade school...the level of materialism and narcissism in this family was enough to make anything seem possible. I was wrong - I wonder who I can blame for that.

We don't need to be sorry here in New Zealand; we need to learn from Britain's mistakes. We must learn from Britain's mistakes. Muslims are not the problem: we are. We are the ones who assume who they think the same as us. We are the ones who assume that they migrate to our country intending to assimilate like so many other cultures have before them. We are the ones who assume they share the same values as us.
The former head of Britain's Equalities and Human Rights Commission (EHRC), Trevor Phillips, has admitted he "got almost everything wrong" on Muslim immigration in a damning new report on integration, segregation, and how the followers of Islam are creating "nations within nations" in the West.
Phillips, a former elected member of the Labour Party who served as the Chairman of the EHRC from 2003-2012 will present "What British Muslims Really Think" on Channel 4 on Wednesday. An ICM poll released to the Times ahead of the broadcast reveals:
- One in five Muslims in Britain never enter a non-Muslim house;
- 39 per cent of Muslims, male and female, say a woman should always obey her husband;
- 31 per cent of British Muslims support the right of a man to have more than one wife;
- 52 per cent of Muslims did not believe that homosexuality should be legal;
- 23 per cent of Muslims support the introduction of Sharia law rather than the laws laid down by parliament.
Writing in the Times on the issue, Phillips admits: "Liberal opinion in Britain has, for more than two decades, maintained that most Muslims are just like everyone else… Britain desperately wants to think of its Muslims as versions of the Great British Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain, or the cheeky-chappie athlete Mo Farah. But thanks to the most detailed and comprehensive survey of British Muslim opinion yet conducted, we now know that just isn't how it is."
Phillips commissioned "the Runnymede report" into Britain and Islamophobia in 1997 which, according to both Phillips himself and academics across the country, popularised the phrase which has now become synonymous with any criticism – legitimate or not – of Islam or Muslims.
…Phillips says his new data shows "a chasm" opening between Muslims and non-Muslims on fundamental issues such as marriage, relations between men and women, schooling, freedom of expression and even the validity of violence in defence of religion. He notes – echoing an article on Breitbart London just two weeks ago which reveals a growing disparity between older and younger Muslims in Britain – that "the gaps between Muslim and non-Muslim youngsters are nearly as large as those between their elders".
And while he is cautious to note that many Muslims in Britain are grateful to be here, and do identify with role models such as Hussain and Farah, there is a widening gap in society with many Muslims segregating themselves.
"It's not as though we couldn't have seen this coming. But we've repeatedly failed to spot the warning signs," he admits.
"Twenty years ago… I published the report titled Islamophobia: A Challenge for Us All, we thought that the real risk of the arrival of new communities was discrimination against Muslims. Our 1996 survey of recent incidents showed that there was plenty of it around. But we got almost everything else wrong."
His comments will come as a blow to those who continue to attack elements in British society who are concerned about Muslim immigration and integration, and in fact may even go some way to shoring up comments made by U.S. Presidential candidates Donald Trump and Sen. Ted Cruz seeking to slow down or pause the rate of Muslim immigration into the West.
"We estimated that the Muslim population of the UK would be approaching 2 [million] by 2020. We underestimated by nearly a million. We predicted that the most lethal threat to Muslims would come from racial attacks and social exclusion. We completely failed to foresee the urban conflicts of 2001 that ravaged our northern cities. And of course we didn't dream of 9/11 and the atrocities in Madrid, Paris, Istanbul, Brussels and London."
"For a long time, I too thought that Europe's Muslims would become like previous waves of migrants, gradually abandoning their ancestral ways, wearing their religious and cultural baggage lightly, and gradually blending into Britain's diverse identity landscape. I should have known better."
And Mr. Phillips even acknowledges that the mass sexual grooming and rape scandals that are plaguing heavily Muslim populated towns across Britain are because of Muslim – not 'Asian' – men. He writes: "The contempt for white girls among some Muslim men has been highlighted by the recent scandals in Rotherham, Oxford, Rochdale and other towns. But this merely reflects a deeply ingrained sexism that runs through Britain's Muslim communities" – in a nod to those who have long protested this to be the case in the face of political, media, and even police cover ups.
Even left wing columnist Yasmin Alibhai-Brown told him: "[W]e [liberal Muslims] are a dying breed — in 10 years there will be very few of us left unless something really important is done."
Phillips comments: "Some of my journalist friends imagine that, with time, the Muslims will grow out of it. They won't."
And indeed he lays the blame at the feet of the liberal, metropolitan elite, media classes: "Oddly, the biggest obstacles we now face in addressing the growth of this nation-within-a-nation are not created by British Muslims themselves. Many of our (distinctly un-diverse) elite political and media classes simply refuse to acknowledge the truth. Any undesirable behaviours are attributed to poverty and alienation. Backing for violent extremism must be the fault of the Americans. Oppression of women is a cultural trait that will fade with time, nothing to do with the true face of Islam."
"Even when confronted with the growing pile of evidence to the contrary, and the angst of the liberal minority of British Muslims, clever, important people still cling to the patronising certainty that British Muslims will, over time, come to see that "our" ways are better."
In terms of solutions, Mr. Phillips opines on "halting the growth of sharia courts and placing them under regulation" ensuring that school governance never falls into the hands of a single-minority group, "ensuring mosques that receive a steady flow of funds from foreign governments such as Saudi Arabia, however disguised, are forced to reduce their dependency on Wahhabi patronage" and an end to the "silence-for-votes understanding between local politicians and Muslim leaders — the sort of Pontius Pilate deal that had such catastrophic outcomes in Rotherham and Rochdale".
Mr. Phillips's comments echo those of the Czech president, and research from across Europe that revealed attitudes amongst Muslims on the continent have hardened. The younger the Muslim, the more likely they are to hold hard-line views, one recent study found.

Chicken should be thawed in the refrigerator. You should plan at least five hours per pound of chicken that you are thawing. If you are in a hurry, chicken can be thawed in the microwave. However, you should carefully monitor your chicken as the microwave cooks the meat from the inside out. Another method for thawing chicken is to use cold water. Simply place the chicken in an airtight bag and place it in cold water. You should change the water every half hour until the chicken is thawed.
Whether you are frying chicken legs or grilling chicken breasts, you should never interrupt the cooking process once it has started. Partial or interrupted cooking only encourages bacteria to grow.

Rebecca Blaine Harding Davis was born in the home of her maternal aunt and namesake, Rebecca Wilson Blaine, in Washington, Pennsylvania, on June 24, 1831. Rebecca and her parents, Richard Harding and Rachel (Leets) Harding, spent five years in Big Springs, Alabama, before settling in Wheeling, West Virginia, where Richard became a businessman and civic official. In her late- life autobiography, Bits of Gossip, Davis remembers her childhood in Wheeling wistfully, as an "isolated and calm life" (5). Her British father, a sometimes distant figure, transmitted his literary enthusiasm to his eldest daughter, reciting Shakespeare and weaving romantic tales for his children. Rebecca and her four brothers and sisters were educated at home by their mother, a member of a prominent Pennsylvania family, whom Davis ardently admired as having "enough knowledge to fit out half a dozen modern college bred women" ( Bits 9). Davis returned to her aunt's house to attend Washington Female Seminary from 1844 to 1848. Yet while Davis's brother continued his education at Washington College, Rebecca, her class valedictorian, returned home.
Legend has it that the unknown Davis burst upon the literary scene thirteen years later with the publication of the highly acclaimed "Life in the Iron-Mills." Yet we now know that Davis spent at least some of the years between her graduation and her Atlantic Monthly premiere honing her craft as a poet, reviewer, and sometime editor for the Wheeling Intelligencer, the largest newspaper in western Virginia. James T. Fields, the renowned editor of the Atlantic, had nothing but praise for Davis's first "serious" effort; he sent her $50 for "Life," eagerly solicited future work, and secured an exclusive agreement with

The atmosphere of every planet is surrounded by a tenuous cloud of hydrogen gas, referred to as a hydrogen corona. At Mars, a substantial fraction of the H present in the corona is moving fast enough to escape the planet's gravity, permanently removing H from the Martian atmosphere. Because this H is ultimately derived from lower atmospheric water, loss of H from Mars is capable of drying and oxidizing the planet over geologic time. Understanding the processes that supply the H corona and control its escape is therefore essential for a complete understanding of the climate history of Mars and for assessing its habitability. In this thesis, I present the most complete analysis of the H corona ever attempted, surveying eight years of data gathered by the ultraviolet spectrograph SPICAM on Mars Express. Using a coupled radiative transfer and physical density model, I interpret brightness measurements of the corona in terms of escape rates of H from the planet, uncovering an order-of-magnitude variability in the H escape rate never before detected. These variations are interpreted using a completely new photochemical model of the atmosphere, demonstrating that newly discovered high altitude water vapor layers are sufficient to produce the observed variation. Finally, I present first results of the SPICAM successor instrument IUVS, an imaging ultraviolet spectrograph carried by NASA's MAVEN spacecraft. IUVS measurements are producing the most complete dataset ever gathered for the Martian H corona, enabling supply and loss processes to be assessed in more complete detail than ever before. This dataset will allow present-day loss rates to be extrapolated into the past, determining the absolute amount of water Mars has lost to space over the course of its history. Planets the size of Mars may be common throughout the universe; the work of this thesis is one step toward assessing the habitability of such planets in general.

Dust and dirt...yuck
Scientists believe that more than 43 million tons of dust falls over the U.S. every year. Indoor air usually contains about twice as much dust as the air outside. That's a million microscopic particles in a cubic inch of air. About 2,000 dust mites can live happily on one ounce of carpet dust. We get rid of the dirt..

Concerts & art at the Arlberg
Exhibits and concerts in Tyrol

Seminar Meetings
Cambridge (Faculty of Education) Seminar Series
Easter Term 2003-4 Seminar: Saturday 22nd May, 2004
Insights from science education in New Zealand: can a student-centred constructivist approach work for the gifted and able?
Dr. Richard Coll
Centre for Science & Technology Education Research
The University of Waikato
New Zealand
E-mail: email@example.com
Dr. Richard Coll will discuss the NZ science curriculum, where curriculum policy has been strongly influenced by proponents of the constructivism-in-science-education movement (and especially the science education faculty at Waikato). In principle, a constructivist approach to teaching science is student-centred, starting from where the learner is, and so should ensure all students experience challenge and progression. Dr. Coll will give his impressions of how well the policy works in practice, and reflect upon whether such a teaching approach is able to meet the needs of the most able in science.

M. and I decided to spend Thanksgiving at the beach. All of our children either had plans to spend the holiday with in-laws or were unable to travel home, so we decided to spend it with my siblings and their spouses along the beautiful Emerald Coast of Florida.
We were lucky enough to snag a deal in our favorite condo complex right on the beach for less than $100 a night so any apprehension we were feeling quickly became a no-brainer.
We enjoyed beautiful sunsets from our balcony, fresh seafood in local restaurants and some lively card games with my siblings.
We explored nearby areas such as Grayton Beach, Seaside, and Rosemary Beach all located within a few miles of each other.
Grayton Beach seemed to be laid back and had an eclectic kind of hippie feel. We weren't sure where to go, but stumbled across this cute little village (Shops of Grayton) and took a quick walk around. We stopped in Twin Oaks Farm Stand (the blue building below) and would definitely revisit. It was a very small restaurant and store with an assortment of jams, jellies, brines, beef and chicken stock, eggs, and an array of healthy food choices to enjoy a quick breakfast or lunch.
We drove along scenic highway 30A and stopped at the bustling, although charming, upscale town of Seaside. This area was VERY crowded. People were everywhere in spite of what it looks like in the photos I took! They had a few gourmet food trucks (actually vintage Airstream trailers) from which mouth-watering aromas ascended in the air, unique $hops, and cute little water stations for your canine companions.
After a leisurely stroll around, it was back in the car and we drove toward Rosemary Beach. Unfortunately, I did not take any photos of this lovely town since we decided not stop. There had been a Thanksgiving 10K run that morning and parking was not to be found. I managed to locate some photos on Google that reflect what we were able to see.
Rosemary Beach presented a similar upscale resort atmosphere as Seaside. There are shops and restaurants in an area of old world charm which included cobblestone streets and gas lamps. Many of the homes, either directly on the beach or within walking access, ranged in size from cute and cozy to quite large and gorgeou$.
I have visited the panhandle of Florida almost all of my life, but had never ventured into any of these towns. Exploring these areas was a nice surprise, a pleasant way to spend some time, and a possible destination idea for a future visit.

The students of Room 104 truly had a superstar day today. They produced great work, were focused, and on task. I was very impressed with how the students grasped the concept of a Venn Diagram so quickly. After reading a book about a girl living in a pilgrim village, we compared and contrasted that time to ours.
They asked great questions while reading about the pilgrim children and were shocked by the amount of work pilgrim children had to do just to eat. I think it maybe made them like school a little more!

Canadian Sami Khan's 'Khoya' opens this Friday in Toronto
Shot in Toronto and Jabalpur, India, writer-director Sami Khan's Khoya, was inspired by his own personal discovery of a long-lost brother living far away.
"When I began looking for him, I found myself struggling to deal with conflicting emotions. Khoya came out of that process, says Khan.
"Khoya is really about home, and about how the spiritual feeling of it is much more powerful and important than the geographic idea of home. I grew up in Canada, the son of immigrants, and I've lived for many years in New York as an immigrant. So home is a complicated idea for me. I like to say home is wherever my wife is, and Khoya is about discovering that bliss."
The film tells the tale of Roger Moreau, an Indian-born man adopted by a white Canadian couple, who is on a quest to solve the mystery of his birth.
This quest takes him to some of India's rougher patches, where Roger follows in the footsteps of the poor, the desperate and the borderline criminal, gradually unraveling the tangled circumstances of how he came to be adopted.
Unable to speak Hindi, he is met with hostility by non-English speakers, by locals who may have something to hide and with chilly reluctance by Subash Uncle the one Indian willing to offer him a mattress on a floor.
Bringing his passion project to his father's hometown of Jabalpur was another piece of the puzzle. And like Roger, Khan didn't always find it welcoming.
The first obstacle he had to overcome was a religious riot. "It was in the middle of town, we were filming at a chaat stand, and a line producer raced up and ordered us into our vehicles. Two rival religious groups had begun fighting, shops had been torched. People had guns. It is a town known for its toughness. I learned a lot about adapting my filmmaking to adversity. Miraculously, we made it through and the result is on the screen," Khan recollects.

The sale of the CDMA (code division multiple access) standard-based phone business includes phone inventory, manufacturing equipment and customer commitments, Paul E. Jacobs, president of Qualcomm Consumer Products said.
In turn, Kyocera will buy a majority of its CDMA chipsets and system software from Qualcomm for the next five years, Jacobs said.
Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed. To go ahead, the deal must meet regulatory and shareholder approval.

Special Kids, Special Needs: Tools, Part 1
Wow, two weeks flies, doesn't it? :-D I have to say – I love being a part of this blog. When I posted last time, I was asked to show/explain some of the tools I use in dealing with my unique boys. The first and most pivotal tool I used for them is called the Penny Card. This is a simple "token" method for my boys to monitor their behavior. It worked so amazingly well, that even my boys loved it! For the most part, I no longer have to use it. However, there are times (like vacation, trips, or when I leave them with a babysitter) that we do use them. It's very simple to use. I'm inserting a picture of it.
What It's Made Of:. It is made from a baseball card protector (hard plastic). I've printed my son's name and inserted it into the sleeve. On the top and bottom rows are the fuzzy round Velcro dots (make sure they are non-sew version LOL). Along the top row, are pennies, which have been backed with the matching Velcro mate.
How it works: All pennies start at the top. As your child works through tasks, say a worksheet or picking up toys without being asked, allow THEM to move one penny to the bottom row. Once all pennies have moved to the bottom, your child has earned a 'reward.' This can be time playing with a favorite toy, a treat, or anything that is important to YOUR child. When you notice ease of movement through the five pennies moving, then up the ante. Tell your child, they must now earn TEN pennies, which means they must move the pennies back to the top to earn their break (this is also appropriate for those with longer attention spans).
I say it's important for a child to move their own penny because this is one way they see TANGIBILITY of their behavior/action/obedience. My boys were quite proud to be able to move their pennies. It also allowed Ryan, who struggles with my Asperger's tendencies than his brother, to know the structure of his day. Five pennies, a break. Five more, another break. This really works for him.
This method was taught to me during my internship with the Child Study Center in Fort Worth, TX. It is a facility staffed with some of the most amazing teachers and caregivers I have ever met. I learned so much—and this experience transformed my life.
Remember, our special needs children do not function the way the majority of other children do. It *is* okay to reward behavior. It is *NOT* bribing them, because bribing imbues a dishonest intent. Your intent is to help your child transform and manage their behavior. This card is one way to give them a VISIBLE and TANGIBLE marker of how they are doing. I hope this helps someone.
Blessings in Christ,

Thank you so much for sharing this idea. It sounds simple enough I might even be able to use it! Seriously! The reason my husband and I (both ADD'er) don't usually use rewards and systems is because *we* are so distractible and lack follow-through and we don't keep up with them - which can lead to real bitterness in the hearts of our girls (also ADD'ers).
But I think we might be able to use this idea. Thank you! I really enjoyed going back and reading your post before this one.
I have a real passion to minister to other moms of children with "special needs," too.
In Christ alone,
Blog Team,

This is actually fairly similar to the tag and hook job chart we jst made and is working out in a similar fashion, because I don't have to be responsible for moving them. The kids are proud to see their tags moving to the "I Did It" hook and my husband can check, at a glance, on who has finished what. (This is working so well that Rachel finished all her work by breakfast this morning!)

Know of someone who loves CP Wontons? It's a must-have for CNY steamboat! So what's for this year? Instead of having it with steamboat, how about giving it a twist and add that extra crunch to your CNY reunion dinner.
"My husband loves the wonton while my son loves the honey walnut! A dish that makes everyone happy!" – Fong Luan
This CP Jumbo Shrimp Wonton with Honey Walnut dish is so simple to make! No thawing is required, you can air-fry the wonton straight out from the freezer. Brush a layer of oil and air-fry for 10 mins till the skin turns into a perfect golden brown – in a healthier way.
This dish was inspired by the mayonnaise prawn that's served on the cold platter and preparing this with CP Jumbo wonton is awesome too!
The prawn was almost double the size of the version all of us are used too; it's fresh and crunchier on the bite. You can serve this dish in 2 ways. Either coat it with mayonnaise or serve the mayonnaise on the side. Serving it on the side will be a wise idea if you are unable to serve this dish immediately.
This is a cooking method that Share Food loves! Have a recipe that you would love to share with us? We want to know more http://www.sharefood.sg/submit-your-recipe/!

When you think of jam, you probably have something sweet in
mind. One of the fastest growing condiment segments, however, is
full of low- and no-sugar products: savory jams are on the rise in
stores and eateries all over, according to NPR's The Salt. These jams
utilize familiar products like berries, onions, and tomatoes in
less traditional ways.
The trend to savory jams made with fruits and vegetables was
made possible by the emergence of lower sugar pectin products. In
order for jams to properly set in days past, a large amount of
sugar - usually about two-thirds of the total jam's weight - was
required. The use of new gelling agents like calcium chloride
allows for much less sugar to be used while still resulting in a
perfect spreadable texture.
When this technological advance was combined with the
salty-sweet craze of recent years, interesting jams started
springing up everywhere. One example comes from Baltimore's
Blacksauce Kitchen, where owner Damian Mosley was looking for a way
to stretch the seasonal rhubarb supply. "I decided one day to see
what would happen when I smoked a boxful of rhubarb and turned it
into jam," Mosley says. "Much to my amazement, it held onto the
smoke." And so a new menu item was born.
While your imagination may be running wild with ideas for new
savory jams, keep in mind a few safety warnings. Less sugar means
more water, which can be a breeding ground for unpleasant
microorganisms. Using vegetables or other low acidity ingredients
can raise the pH of the product, which can increase the chances for
botulism. Any preserved jam with a pH higher than 4.6 is not safe
to eat. If in doubt, be sure to keep your jam refrigerated and use
within a week or two.

The next card is an invitation that I designed for my Aunt Renee and Cousin Desiree to recreate for baby shower invitations. My cousin Brian and his wife Taryn are having a baby girl in the fall. These are her colors and she wants to do a super princess-y girly theme for the baby's room. We thought this would suit her. :) The colors are Pink Pirouette, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White and a little bit of Pretty in Pink. The glitter adds the bling. We used the Baby Bundle stamp set and the crown is from an old set called "Birthday Beauty."
P.S. The new Holiday Mini Catalog is out and it is so pretty. Check out my website for the new products just released. www.kristajstamps.stampinup.net

Data leaks permeate discussions at the cultural level. One that's currently making headlines is Cambridge Analytica's harvesting of private information from the Facebook profiles of 50 million users. The firm extrapolated voter behaviour based on the US electorate's social media activities. Regardless of who benefitted during the campaign, which is to say let us set aside politics in this write-up, the most important point not to miss is that Cambridge Analytica did it without the permission of the users.
At a time that the likes of Facebook and Google hold the key to real people's online activities, it is crucial to not only report about data breaches but also to remind users of their ownership rights. It's the same principle that belies what also seems an unfair practice in the offline world: making people pay to get access to their personal information, such as an individual's medical history in the healthcare sector.
Amidst such issues, the business sector is the likely place to look for solutions. After all, it is in this sector that consumer behaviours are tracked, presenting a potential dilemma for society if left unchecked. It is also in this sector that innovations sparking accountability are expected to spring up.

text: This paper investigates patterns of lake-area and hydro-climatic change in Arctic river basins, and possible influence of permafrost change reflected in such patterns. A salient change pattern, emerging across all investigated basins in both permafrost and non-permafrost areas, is an opposite change direction in runoff (R) from that in precipitation (P). To explain this change contrast, an increase (decrease) in relative water-balance constrained evapotranspiration ETwb/P is required where R decreases (increases). Increasing temporal variability of daily river discharge (sdQ) is found in all basins with spatially extensive lake decrease, which also exhibit decrease in ELwb/P. Clear indication of basin-wide permafrost thaw is found in only one basin, and is possible in two more, but unlikely in the largest of the total four investigated permafrost basins.

'You can use your intuition to lead you to a life you love. All it takes is letting go and trusting your inner voice'
Over the years I have been asked to explain the difference between my own thoughts and that of Intuition/Spirit. It's a straightforward answer really, because it's all a matter of Vibration!
Spirit/Intuition connects with us through the Language of Light. The lighter your thoughts, emotions and mind-set the easier it becomes to differentiate. When we are emotional, depressed or grieving deeply our vibration is denser. It becomes harder to connect to Intuition and to feel the vibration of those in Spirit. Deliberately raising your vibration is paramount to joy and connection with your Source.
When connecting with Spirit you will sense an energetic signature or imprint. As Human beings we too have energetic signatures, which we call "our personalities". You know how, one is able to describe a friend or partner through their 'personality?" Well connecting with those in Spirit is much the same.
This is how an authentic medium is able to describe the "personality" of your loved one through the energetic imprint they receive and intuit for you.
When I tune into thought's, I have learnt to sense the energetic signature, as different to what I know to be my own thought. Sometimes I feel a tingle on my skin, a sense of warmth or coldness, a chill or change in outside room temperature. I am able to really feel into whether this is "me" or the energetic thought of another. Often we ignore our intuition, or the messages from Spirit, because it seems too obvious and easy to rationalize it away, as being our own thought!
Like anything, it takes a wee bit of practice, learning to differentiate between 'human thought' versus 'spirit thought', however everyone can do it!
I welcome any questions and hope this short post was insightful and helpful. I would love to hear in the comments section below any techniques and your own thoughts you have around The Language of Light. As always, your point of view could make all the difference to someone in our global community. If you found this post worthwhile please share it on social media.

"Let's go buy an ice-cream and a magazine with an attitude
and put on a cassette, we can pretend that you're a star
cos life's so very simple just like la-la-la…"
Roxette 'June Afternoon'
Regular readers of my Blog will have seen Melissa featured here quite often. I do hope you're not getting tired of seeing her. I could certainly never get tired of photographing her. Never in a million years!
Well, it's summer here in the UK, supposedly, so I thought I'd post some shots from a fun set with Melissa.
So, we were driving to the studio when Melissa asked me to stop at a supermarket as she needed to get something. In she went and she returned clutching a box of ice lollies, saying that she had this idea that she wanted to be photographed with lollies. I'm always happy to oblige, and the photos below were the result.
We had to work quite quickly as the ice lollies were already starting to thaw out and melt a little by the time we arrived at the studio. I setup the studio lights and checked exposures while Melissa got changed and made-up.
I like the photos, however it was very much a spur of the moment shoot. With more planning I think we would have got something different. But sometimes it's good fun to just roll with it and see what happens. You have to have fun with your photography and every shoot is fab with Melissa.
