THE ANNUAL QUESTION // So just how do you cover something that hasn't happened? Spring poses a dilemma for spring delivery yearbook staffs every March, April and May. So how do you do it?
With final deadlines in late February or early March, most staffs struggle with coverage of spring activities, events and sports seasons.
SAME BOOK COVERAGE // Not ideal and not reflective of actual spring experiences, including spring in the current book is better than nothing. For spring activities, the most for which a staff can hope is to cover the planning and preparation for prom, graduation and other school-specific events; as well as conditioning, practices and tryouts all spring sports, according to Casey Nichols, Rocklin High School [CA].
NEXT BOOK COVERAGE // March-to-March coverage trademarks the yearbook at Southwest Career and Technical Academy [NV] advised by Matt LaPorte. Staffs, who choose this approach, open coverage with March-May/June content from the previous school year with a focus on returning underclassmen.
SUPPLEMENT // An additional magazine-type publication can accompany the printed yearbook. It can be produced to be tipped (taped) into the book upon delivery or can be distributed during the summer or fall. One benefit of this is that it includes full coverage for those important spring activities and events.
REPLAYIT TIME CAPSULE // Take advantage of Jostens ReplayIt to cover Spring for your readers. While not in print media format, it expands coverage in the traditional yearbook.
AUGMENTED REALITY // You can place trigger images in the book and then add coverage as it occurs using programs like Aurasma or QR codes. Again, it extends your ability to provide well-deserved coverage of those active after your final deadline.
YEARBOOK WEBSITE & SOCIAL MEDIA // Taking your spring coverage where your readers get lots of their "news" provides another opportunity for your staff to extend the yearbook.
LAST THOUGHTS // Maximize spring activity post-deadline by creating a mock cycle of coverage for incoming yearbook staff members. You can train new staff and editors and not miss out on a single minute of important coverage suggested adviser Mitch Eden, Kirkwood High School [MO].

Last Chance for lifelong SPIN Registration18 Dec 2017
The World Squash Federation is changing the format of SPIN registrations so anyone registered from the 1st of January 2018 will be subject to an annual renewal fee.
The WSF Board are expanding specific aims for SPIN in supporting their programmes on behalf of the sport and their stakeholders and enhancing its use as a tool for information flow and providing benefits. Beginning at the start of 2018, SPIN will become an annual licence fee for players, team officials and coaches.
One priority is to provide relevant information to all groups, such as rules information, championship details, masters updates, coaching resources etc. This will involve resourcing by WSF. They are also beginning to offer member benefits too such as squash-related discounts that they hope that SPINs will like. Details will be uploaded as they are added.
The initial Registration fee will be unchanged at £15, but there will be an annual renewal fee for subsequent years set at £10 for adults, and £5 for juniors (still Under 19 on 1st January at the start of the renewal year).
However, WSF is mindful that the current SPIN registered individuals were offered it on a once-for-lifetime basis, so SPINS paid before 31 December this year will not be subject to an annual renewal fee.
For more information on what a SPIN (Squash Personal Identification Number) is and how to register visit www.worldsquash.org and head to the SPIN section

Your homestudy agency will give you a list of paperwork they need filled out and returned, including (but not limited to):
- a lengthy application
- financial records for two months
- verification of your assets
- paper from your doctor saying you're healthy
- an involved autobiography for each of you
- a layout of your home (with dimensions)
- pictures of the front of your home and your yard
- pictures of your family
- letters verifying your employment
- 4 letters of reference
- certificates of completion for adoption training
... and maybe other things I'm forgetting? Anyway, a ton of stuff. It's pretty easy to feel overwhelmed when looking at the paper with alllll of the things you have to obtain.
How you go about this step depends on whether you're in a rush to get that baby! or if you're not. We aren't, having a baby at present and being pretty tied up with ministry. We were also doing two fundraisers while we had our paperwork, so I think we spent maybe 6 weeks just compiling the documents and finishing the paperwork.
I chose to do things one at a time, since that helps me feel successful. Being able to cross a thing off a list feels a lot better than getting closer to being finished on several things. Stephen worked on his autobiography during many small sittings; I did it in two chunks. I also started with easier-to-do things, like going to our filing cabinet and pulling out the records we needed to copy.
A suggestion I have for this phase of the adoption is to get your dossier doctor note (the one that has to be notarized) at the same visit wheres/he fills out the homestudy agency's paper. Also getting your employer to notarize their verification of employment also helps for your dossier. But my guess is most people probably already know that who are at this point in their adoption "journey."
Next up, the home visit!

Nikon Coolpix L20 Review
Welcome to the Nikon Coolpix L20 Review. The Nikon Coolpix L20 may be one of the best beginner digital cameras available on the market right now. While it does typically run higher than the $100 range, it is still a good value. I personally own this camera and have for a little over a year now. It has a great list of features that can help beginners, but can also hurt you. I'm going to go over some of those features and give you some tips that may help you get started in the world of digital photography.
The Best Cheap Compact Camera?
The Nikon Coolpix L20 features a now industry standard LCD screen that measures out at 3". The digital camera does feature a manual zoom that is very helpful for getting close up pictures. The 3.6x optical zoom is perfect for getting the up close pictures of wildlife that you are not able to get walk right up to. The camera also features 10 megapixels for a good high quality photograph. The megapixels are adjustable to a lower resolution, if perhaps you would rather have higher quantity and lower quality photographs stored on your memory card. The SD memory card that is used by the L20 is all but a requirement. When set on 10 megapixels, the camera is only able to store 3 photos within the camera's memory. The SD style memory card will have to be purchased separately, but is a very common and available card you can find almost anywhere. The camera also features a red eye fix, smile mode, and blink detection. Smile mode is obviously for use when photographing a person and actually puts an auto feature on the shutter to make it release when the person smiles. The blink detection is actually a warning system that lets you know when a person has blinked.
Digital Photography Tips
Now the digital camera does have some features that I don't think are as great as Nikon makes them out to be. One is the Easy Auto Mode. While this will take a picture for you, very often the photo will be of poor quality. The camera has a scene selector mode that the camera can be set to and the auto mode will automatically set itself to one of these scenes. The real problem is that while you are holding the camera to take a picture, you will find that the camera can't make up its mind and is cycling through several different scene selections. This is why it is best to manually set the scene selections. I would also suggest to experiment with the scene selections and don't match what the scene selection is to your situation. A good example is using the night portrait during the day because it has a slower shutter speed. This will require the camera to be very still, but will make some awesome photographs. Experimentation will go a long ways with this camera and cost nothing. You can make as many digital photographs as you want and delete your mistakes until you get it right.
One of the Top Point and Shoot Cameras In It's Price Range
Overall this digital camera provides a great value at a low price to get you started in digital photography. While this camera isn't capable of producing the highest detailed pictures in the world, it doesn't drain your bank account either. If you are not looking to spend in excess of $300, $500, or even $1000 on a camera the Nikon Coolpix L20 may be the right camera for you. Get out there and start snapping some pics!

Would you like to be featured as a JLM Couture Real Bride?
Daniel and Courtney
Our wedding weekend started out exactly how all outdoor weddings shouldn't - rainy and gloomy. It was the week before Hurricane Matthew hit so the storm coming through the area was unpredictable and the forecast was changing by the minute. Once we realized that following the weather channel was a lost cause, we decided to make the best of whatever was going to happen because we were getting married and no weather was going to stop that. Our venue is nestled in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains but the morning of our wedding the mountains were barely visible due to the storm that had come through the night before (which made for an interesting but fun rehearsal). Luckily I had an amazing group of girls in my wedding party who helped keep me distracted throughout the day and made me forget about what was going on outside. So much so, I didn't even notice right away when the clouds started to rise and the mountains started to become visible again. The timing could not have been better. My processional song was "Here Comes the Sun" by the Beatles and I didn't realize how fitting and appropriate it was going to be when I chose it. By the time I walked down the aisle, the clouds had almost completely lifted and the backdrop for our ceremony was gorgeous with just a few lingering clouds draped over the mountains. Looking back at the pictures now I still can't believe how picturesque the day turned out to be.
I can't even begin to explain how much the Behati gown I wore influenced and inspired so many of the details and aspects of our wedding. The detail in the skirt reminded me of leaves which tied perfectly into the greenery we used throughout the ceremony and reception. The beautiful art deco back inspired the design of the wedding cake along with the decoration on the desserts. And the dress could not have looked better in the romantic woodland setting of our venue. My jewelry and headband were custom made by Haute Bride using beads from the back of another Behati gown which made them one of a kind, extra special to me and amazing. They complemented the dress so well. Thank you Hayley Paige for creating the most beautiful dress I could have ever dreamed of. Despite all of the uncertainty of the weather that day, knowing I was going to wear that dress in front of the man I was going to marry was all I needed to have the perfect day.

Ensure that document matches include...
...all of these word(s):
...and optionally include these word(s):
...but do not have these word(s):
Enter your phrase:
Enter the first few characters of a word:
There are 2 types of basic queries: Terms and Phrases.
A Term is a single word search.
A Phrase would wrap a string of words in quotes and find matches on the extact string.
Boolean Operators
You can combine basic queries with Boolean operators to form a more complex query. Boolean operators define the relationships between Terms or Phrases. Our search supports the following Boolean operators: AND, "+", OR, NOT and "-". Please note that Boolean operators must be all uppercase.
example search: default AND document
This is the default operator. It will be used if there is no Boolean operator between two terms. For example:
default document is the same as default AND document. In this case both terms need to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.The + character is synonymous with using AND.
example search: default OR document
In this case just one of the terms needs to exist within a listing to find a match on that listing.
example search: default NOT "document type"
The NOT operator excludes documents that contain the term (or phrase) after NOT. So a listing match would have to include the word default but not the phrase "document type". The - character is synonymous with using NOT.
Wildcard/Prefix queries
You can perform "wildcard" or "prefix" queries using the '*' operator. Whereas all of the previous search found exact matches on the whole term or phrase, a wildcard search will find partial matches.
example search: ehr*
This query will match all documents containing words beginning with the prefix 'ehr' like the word Ehrlichia.

Which Great Lakes states have recorded the best growth rate in jobs since the onset of the last recession? Two stand out.
Here in Illinois, we're conditioned to know that neither of them is us. The drumbeat we've heard of actual or almost "worst in the nation" status for things like school funding or unemployment is enough for a world-class inferiority complex.
So is it Indiana and Wisconsin, which loaded up on incentives to attract Illinois companies? No, it's New York, which qualifies as a Great Lakes state but whose economy tilts eastward to the Big Apple. It has a state budget surplus but also the highest per-capita tax burden in the country, according to the Tax Foundation. No. 2 is closer to home — Minnesota, where lawmakers in recent years have raised the minimum wage, hiked taxes on the wealthy and brought their budget from a deficit to a surplus.
Since December 2007, private-sector jobs in New York have risen by 9.5 percent, or by 691,600 jobs, through this past July. Minnesota came in second with a percentage gain of 5.3 percent, or 125,500 jobs over the same period. So said federal data reported to Congress in August by its Joint Economic Committee. Of the other Great Lakes states, Illinois, yes, was last with 1 percent growth, or 50,600 net new jobs in the private sector.
The lesson isn't that Illinois should do everything New York or Minnesota did. It's that a state's economic performance is a complicated story and you can't predict the winners based on who has the lowest taxes, the least regulation and the greater hostility to unions. By any measure, the tax rates that New York and Minnesota apply to companies and high-wage earners are among the highest in the country.
When companies move or expand, they aren't voting for red- or blue-state policies. The driving forces are most likely access to customers and suppliers and the quality and depth of the local work force. Utility costs and office rents also can be factors and, whatever the industry, relocations often come down to what's an easy commute from the chief executive's home.
Illinois, especially Chicago, in years past has performed well by these standards. But there's another important way in which the state is falling woefully short.
It's the natural human desire for a little certainty. Corporate leaders want to rely on what future tax rates, both state and local, will look like. Stability is more important than the tax level itself.
And what does our state provide? A soap opera, now more than a year old, of continued budget deficits, out-of-control public pensions, stacks of overdue bills and a bond rating that is worst in the nation. Add to that the saga of underfunded schools and social service agencies at death's door, and it's enough to make any business executive say, "OK, how much will I and my company be billed to fix this?"
In the meantime, fewer job openings get filled and construction projects get deferred. You can see it in the federal employment numbers, which show that for the 12 months through July 2016, private-sector job growth in Illinois is about half what it was in the prior 12 months.
Just about the time Gov. Bruce Rauner seriously started butting heads with the Legislature, the state economy took a turn for the worse. After a period in 2013 and 2014 in which the unemployment rate here dropped dramatically, we have lost that momentum and now report one of the highest rates of any state.
There is no better evidence of the economic price for Rauner's antics. The guy with "govern" in his title has refused to act the part.
The best thing Rauner could do to promote jobs is to settle on a budget with the Legislature that sustainably funds state services and lowers deficits, setting tax rates that won't yo-yo with every change in administration. There would be no Springfield chaos to scare the job creators. Illinois could profit from leadership that finds common ground and attends to the state's fiscal health.
The tragedy is that Rauner, who came out of private equity and went to Springfield to teach it some lessons, didn't understand this important one.

Well, Christmas is over and once again the all of the opened gifts are spread out around the house. As it is every year, the jigsaw puzzle is spread out in pieces on the coffee table in the process of completion (with just the border done) and the box top that reveals what the completed puzzle will look like is lying on the floor next to it for constant reference. Looking at that box top, I thought "Wow, imagine trying to put that thing together without having that picture to look back upon as a guide". I then realized that many of us attempt to live our lives (or at least parts of it) just that way. We attempt to walk through different areas of our lives without the top of the box to look at, or without a VISION of what we, or more importantly what GOD really wants the outcome or completed picture to look like.
As baseball & softball coaches, I believe that many of us lack an overall vision or "big picture" as to what we truly want to acheive with our teams and the athletes that we coach and influence. Therefore, we often miss the mark and fail to reach the full potential of the platform that GOD has given to us as a coach.
A vision is a destination. It is the big picture of where you want to end up. The clearer your vision, the fewer options that you have and the easier that it is when it comes time to make a decisions. Vision is a mental image of what could be and maybe should be in regard to the different areas of your life.
We are all within a few weeks of starting back with our teams and preparing for the upcoming spring season. I want to encourage and challenge each of you to start thinking about and praying about the vision that GOD wants for you as a coach for this upcoming season. As you begin to ask those questions and also draw on the resources that you already have, I believe that you will begin to develop a mental picture of what could be and what you believe SHOULD be the direction in which your team is to go this season. I believe that as the vision for your team becomes clearer, the options that you have as a coach will get fewer and the decisions that you will need to make will get easier. Remember..If you have the top of the box to look at, it makes putting the pieces together so much easier.
So, what is the vision for your team? What does the big picture look like? How does GOD want to use you as a coach? Here are three things that I believe will help each of you as you go forward into the beginning of a new season.
1) Begin to pray for GOD to give you a clear vision as to what HE wants to achieve through you as a coach this season. Begin to develop the top of the puzzle box.
2) WRITE THE VISION DOWN! Just a simple sentence or a short paragraph is all that is needed to say "Here is what I want to achieve with and through my team this season".
3) Act accordingly. Begin making your decisions based on your vision and do not stray from it.
I believe that through this process, you can fully achieve great things using the platform given to you as Coach.

Around 150 workers at a Foxconn factory in Wuhan spent two days on the roof in a protest over plans to move them to a new production line.
Their threat to jump en masse recalls a cluster of suicides at Foxconn in 2010, which prompted serious concern from its customers in the West, who include Apple, Amazon, Microsoft and HP.
Foxconn is the world's largest electronics manufacturer, and employs more than a million people.
It is one of very few firms in the world with the expertise and scale to build cutting-edge devices such as the iPhone, Kindle and Xbox 360 at low cost. As such the technology industry cannot operate without its legions of low-paid assembly line workers.
"After talking with workers and management, it is our understanding that the worker protest was related to staffing assignments and transfer policies, not working conditions," Microsoft said this week about the latest incident of staff unrest.
Western technology firms have taken a closer interest in how Foxconn treats its staff in recent years, as stories of mistreatment and suicides have attracted global headlines. After the 2010 suicides, Apple pressure the firm to boost wages and improve staff welfare progams.
The fact remains, however, that the large profit margins Apple and its rivals enjoy are based on low-cost labour provided by Foxconn.

TBS Brings Back Caray, Van Wieren
Skip Caray and Pete Van Wieren will be back on TBS' telecasts of the Atlanta Braves after the All-Star break, ending a 3 1/2-month experiment by the cable network.
The two longtime announcers will join Don Sutton and Joe Simpson in a four-man rotation that was used over the past several seasons. The new pairings start July 17 when Atlanta plays the New York Mets.
Caray and Van Wieren, in their 28th season with the Braves, have been working games on Turner South, a regional cable network in only 6.5 million homes. By comparison, TBS can been seen in 87 million homes.
All four announcers also called games on the radio.
When the change was announced near the end of spring training, the network said it was trying to lure more viewers with a more balanced broadcast.
Games were aired as "MLB on TBS," with no mention of the Braves.
"Ultimately, we listen to our fans," TBS spokesman Greg Hughes said Monday. "Our new format this season is going to stay in place, and a lot of the changes have been well-received by fans. As a matter of fact, our ratings over the past month and a half have increased 25 percent."

Lexus is recalling its ES 350 and ES 300h models due to a potential problem with the pre-collision system.
Seems the system software is, on occasions, a little too keen, with Lexus identifying a fault that sees the software recognise everyday road hazards as threats.
A steel expansion joint or a plate that crosses the road surface may cause the system to engage its pre-collision procedures unnecessarily.
This may include an unnecessary application of the car's brakes, accompanied by a warning message to the driver.
Lexus says if one of its ES 350 or ES 300h models were to brake for no reason, other road users may be put at risk.
The carmaker is targeting a specific list of Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs).
Honda is recalling some of its 2015 Civic hatch models, due to a pre-delivery oversight.
Selected examples of the Civic hatch were delivered to customers in Australia with the owner's manual for the European Union.
As such, the manual does not contain information relevant to Australian owners, including rear centre child seat anchor point installation, maximum towing weight and more.
Lexus and Honda will attempt to contact affected owners shortly, but any owner wishing to learn more about the latest round of recalls should contact their local dealer.

Southeast Polk (0-1) at Ames (2-0), 7 p.m.
Southeast Polk (0-1) at Ames (2-0), 7 p.m.
Little Cyclones standouts: Clifford Kwaw-Mensah (363 rushing yards, 4 TDs); Spencer Shane (127 receiving yards, TD)
Rams standouts: Kyle Starcevich (198 yards passing, TD); Phil Velez (6 catches, 96 yards)
Our take: This will be Ames� toughest test yet. Southeast Polk dropped its opener handily against fifth-ranked West Des Moines Dowling, but the Rams entered the season ranked ninth in Class 4A, return a solid core from last year�s 10-2 squad and are equally adept at running and passing. The Little Cyclones offense was superb in scoring 63 points last week, but a defense that gave up 47 to Des Moines East will have to prevent big plays to come away with a win this week.
Ballard (1-0) at Carlisle (0-1), 7:30 p.m.
Bombers standouts: Caleb Schfbuch (104 passing yards, TD) ; Kordell Lettow (18 tackles, fumble return for TD)
Wildcats standouts: Josh Hagedorn (109 passing yards, 54 rushing yards, TD); Trevor Joiner (16 tackles)
Our take: Despite breezing to a 27-0 victory against Webster City in its opener, Ballard has an area of concern: its ground game. The Bombers accounted for just 65 rushing yards on 28 carries last week, a meager average of 2.3 yards per carry. This Friday it faces a Wildcats� defense held its own in a 21-10 loss to Boone in Week 1.
Boone (1-0) at Perry (1-0), 7:30 p.m.
Toreadors standouts: Jonny Mack (141 rushing yards, 2 TDs); Levi Morain (10 tackles)
Bluejays standouts: Ben Daniels (96 rushing yards, 3 total TDs); Seth Stetzel (72 rushing yards)
Our take: Without injured all-state receiver Chris Kelly, the Toreadors were forced to put more emphasis on the running game in Week 1. It worked out, as Mack rumbled for 141 yards and two touchdowns. Boone will need more of the same as it takes on a Perry squad that almost pitched a shutout in opening with a 27-7 win against Greene County.
Roland-Story (0-2) at CMB (1-1) in Maxwell, 7:30 p.m.
Norsemen standouts: Evan Johnson (198 passing yards, 98 rushing yards, 3 total TDs); Joe Gast (27 tackles)
Raiders standouts: Zach Samson (409 passing yards, 398 rushing yards, 10 total TDs); Tim Thalacker (28 tackles)
Our take: The key to this game is Roland-Story containing the dual-threat Samson, who accounted for 368 total yards last week in a close loss to Gilbert. If the Norsemen can do that, they�ll be in the game late. If they can�t, they won�t be in a third straight down-to-the-wire contest.
Northeast Hamilton (1-0) at Colo-Nesco (0-2), 7 p.m.
Trojans standouts: Tyler Smith (258 rushing yards, 5 TDs); Gabe Rapp (12 tackles)
Royals standouts: Adam Lytle (243 rushing yards, 3 TDs); Brandyn Niemeyer (136 rushing yards, 23 tackles)
Our take: The learning curve won�t get much easier this week for Colo-Nesco as it continues its first year of eight-man football. It faces Northeast Hamilton on Friday, a team that went 9-1 last year and opened 2012 with a blowout win. The Royals need to slow Trojans running back Tyler Smith to have a chance in this one.
Gilbert (1-0) at Webster City (0-1), 7:30 p.m.
Tigers standouts: Christopher Culek (131 rushing yards, 2 TDs); Brady Kline (15 tackles)
Lynx standouts: Connor Larson (66 rushing yards); Boone Myers (6 tackles)
Our take: The Tigers turned an early hole into a come-from-behind victory thanks to a dominating rushing attack in the second half against CMB. Both Culek and quarterback Jordan Knock rushed for more than 100 yards and sophomore Jared Gescheidler added 75 as Gilbert did not attempt a pass in the second half. Webster City allowed just 169 total yards but turned it over twice in a 27-0 loss to Ballard. Gilbert�s rushing attack again figures to loom large in this one.
Bondurant-Farrar (1-0) at Nevada (1-1), 7:30 p.m.
Bluejays standouts: Josh Block (238 passing yards, 3 TDs); Colton Halder (138 rushing yards, TD)
Cubs standouts: Colynn Black (234 passing yards, 106 rushing yards, 5 total TDs); Patrick Stephenson (205 rushing yards)
Our take: If you�d told Nevada coach John Pelzer before the season his team would allow 16 points through two games, he�d have been ecstatic. That side of the ball was his main concern entering this year. Now he just needs the Cubs offense to shake off last week�s six-point performance in a loss and get back on track.
Woodward Academy (0-1) at South Hamilton (1-0), 7 p.m.
Knights standouts: Andrew Caulker (96 rushing yards, TD); Josh McNew (10 tackles)
Hawks standouts: Matt Hislop (191 passing yards, 77 rushing yards); Sam Waid (14 tackles)
Our take: First-year Hawks coach T.J. Schafer has talked of breeding a winning attitude at South Hamilton. You know what helps that? A final-play touchdown pass for the win in Week 1. That�s how South Hamilton beat Roland-Story last Friday; now we�ll find out if the Hawks have the maturity to bring it two weeks in a row.

DE GUICHE: (recovering his self-control after being insulted by Cyrano) Have you read Don Quixote?
CYRANO: I have - and found myself the hero.
DE GUICHE: Be so good as to read once more the chapter of the windmills.
CYRANO: Chapter Thirteen!
DE GUICHE: Windmills, remember, if you fight with them -
CYRANO: My enemies change, then, with every wind?
DE GUICHE: - they may swing round their huge arms and cast you down into the mire!
CYRANO: Or up - among the stars!
I read this play back in December and was immediately taken with. I can identify with Cyrano in so many ways. Perhaps I've never written love poems under the guise of a friend to a girl I've loved, but I can see myself being Cyrano.
|You've got a little something
on your face there... *runs*
de Guiche assumes that Cyrano will meet his match one day but Cyrano remains optimistic he won't. Oddly enough, both happen to him.
Cyrano meets his match (assumed to be one of his enemies, who drops wood on his head) but yet ends up "amongst the stars" (i.e. the exalted Roxane's arms, who knows finally that he loved her).
Just something to think about. I'll talk more about Quixote (or Quixada) one day -- the book's hilarious and worth discussing.
And I recommend that anyone interested in a short, quick read (took me an hour) and wants some swashbuckling, dramatic hammy action, wit and wisdom, and sad melodrama, read Cyrano. Here's the free eBook, courtesy of Gutenberg: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/1254/1254-h/1254-h.htm

A few weeks ago we had bright sunshine and temperatures in the mid teens. Ever since then the weather has regressed back to Winter with more rain than is seasonable. I opened my window today to find snow. It's March 10th and its snowing. Snow in Daegu is rare. Snow that sticks is even rarer and thankfully it's already melting but leaving us awash with grey sludge. Spring officially starts on March 20th but that looks a long way off right now. Just what is going on with the weather and is Spring ever going to come? Here are some pictures that I took on the way to taekwondo.

Cairns International Aviation Route Development
Project Description
Cairns Airport is the nation's seventh busiest in terms of combined international and domestic passenger movements. It handles around 130,000 aircraft movements and over 5.2 million passenger movements per year.
The airport is widely recognised as one of the most significant economic drivers in Tropical North region, and its facilities are critical pieces of economic infrastructure.
New international aviation routes directly benefit tourism along with opportunities such as international education, growth in regional exports and the region's aviation industry infrastructure and services.
A new daily wide body international service is estimated to generate $103.2M GDP and 667 new jobs. A three times per week service generates $44.2M and 286 jobs.
TNQ tourism provides an output of $3.1B being the largest industry contributor to GDP and creates 33,000 jobs in the region.
Cairns Airport offers an extensive domestic network that allows international visitors to travel to or from other parts of Australia. Currently 77% of international visitors through Cairns Airport travel on domestic flights.
More international services direct to Cairns encourage international visitors to stay longer and spend more while they are here.
There are opportunities to further expand international connectivity for Cairns and thereby grow access from key international visitor source markets in Europe, NZ, Asia, North America and the Middle East.
Cairns Airport's strategic direction focusses on increasing direct international services in both the full service airline and low cost airline models. Its success will deliver economic benefits to the region and the state.
If regional produce is carried on the outbound services, there is potential for a further significant contribution to the regional and state economy through freight export value. Full service Gulf carriers have recognised the value in this particular business unit ex Cairns.
Policy Proponents
The project and campaign initiative is being led by Tourism Tropical North Queensland and Cairns Airport with the participation of Tourism and Events Queensland (TEQ) and Tourism Australia.
That the State Government commit funds to support Tropical North Queensland destination marketing in key visitor source markets as new routes are secured. These funds are required to launch the route and create brand awareness for long term route sustainability. This will assist TNQ reach its 2020 visitor expenditure target of $4.2B.

Houston Teeth Whitening Advancements Give You That Beautiful White Smile!
Everyone wants a blazing white smile and at New Teeth Dental Solutions, we understand. A bright, white smile is a sign of good dental health and it's also attractive.
The first thing people usually notice when meeting someone is their eyes. After a firm handshake and conversation, the next thing people will take note of is a person's smile. Many individuals who know that their smile could use some work will often refrain from laughing or put their hands over their mouth.
"I hope she didn't notice my crooked teeth," a person's conscience might whisper. Or, "If I'd only gotten them whitened!"
Jay Elliott, D.D.S., uses a keen sense of artistry and the newest techniques of cosmetic dental enhancement. Dr. Elliott may be able to treat even the most unattractive and severely damaged teeth.
Surprisingly, the typical patient who undergoes teeth whitening is not the movie star type, or the C.E.O. of a million dollar corporation. It is more likely to be someone who lives by or works with you, and is remedying a dental problem that is quite common.
"Many people desire a better-looking smile," says Dr. Elliott. "Most are surprised to find out how a few simple procedures can enhance their appearance."
For those whose teeth are in the proper position, but have lost their luster due to years of use, bleaching is a fast, safe option to get back the gleam. Teeth whitening can give you a whiter, brighter smile.
"Teeth discolor rather easily," explains Dr. Elliott. "Of course, coffee, cigarettes, certain medications and foods can stain teeth and accelerate the discoloration process, but age also plays an integral role in the process. As people age, the outer layer of the teeth tends to discolor – taking on yellow, gray, or brown hues. Although discoloration is a part of the natural aging process, no one said you have to like it – or accept it. So, we fix it."
"A healthy white smile is so important," added Dr. Elliott. "It's one of the first things people notice, and a great smile can open doors – both professionally and personally. Teeth whitening can make a difference in how you look, how you feel about yourself and how other people perceive you. Whether we like it or not, we all know that first impressions do count – a lot. After our new whitening treatment, you can smile with confidence."
We are proud to offer advanced teeth whitening services for patients who feel the need. Dr. Elliott and his partners, Brad Jetton, D.D.S., and Kalli Elliott Hale, D.D.S, use Venus White Ultra products to give patients the brightest smile possible. There's more to the process than just a request for the whitening services though, and things that patients should be aware of.
The process starts with a cleaning and assessment of your teeth. It's not always possible to predict just how whitening will affect any specific patient, and we want patients to understand what happens to the surrounding teeth, particularly when there are porcelain crowns, veneers or direct bonding to also consider. In particular, those types of dentition don't whiten with in-office bleaching and may need to be replaced. Some patients may experience sensitivity following an in-office whitening procedure, but that sensitivity is usually temporary. We suggest that for at least 48 hours following in-office whitening procedures, patients avoid consumption of dark staining substances like colas, coffee, grape juice and tobacco.
Not all patients are good candidates for teeth whitening services with Venus White Ultra, and our team will not perform the procedure if we feel you cannot get optimum results.
Dr. Elliott uses the latest techniques and materials to provide whitening in a convenient manner with quick results. Several ways exist to brighten smiles, but Dr. Elliott prefers the "chairside" bleaching technique coupled with take-home trays. It incorporates state-of-the-art technology and careful supervision. The chairside treatment has an immediate whitening effect that is evident before the patient leaves the dental office. After that, a patient can bleach them once every month and their teeth will remain as bright as they were during the initial treatment.
You have worked hard to become the successful person you are today. You get a new dress or suit, new shoes and new hairstyle, but what about your smile?
Isn't it time to create the bright, beautiful smile to make you look and feel good? It does wonders to make you feel more attractive, youthful and confident. Dr. Elliott has helped thousands of patients enhance their smiles. Many have said, "I don't know why I waited so long to do this."
Discover the advantages of leading edge teeth whitening and dentistry that can make a great first impression. Call today to schedule your complimentary initial consultation.
FAQs about Teeth Whitening
What are my options for teeth whitening?
We offer at-home whitening, we will take molds of your teeth and supply you with custom molds as well as professional grade whitening solution. Simply apply a thin layer of gel to the trays and wear them as directed each day. Most patients notice a difference in 10 to 14 days, and the full impact will appear at the end of the whitening time period.
Does teeth whitening work?
Professional teeth whitening can safely and effectively remove surface stains and renew your smile. Our cosmetic teeth whitening can lighten your teeth 10 to 12 shades in no time. Good oral hygiene, regular dental visits, and avoidance of products that stain will keep your smile looking fantastic.
What is the difference between professional teeth whitening and the kits I can buy from the drug store?
Drug store whitening kits don't have the strength that professional grade whitening provides, so many times, patients won't achieve the results they desire. As well, these whitening kits often irritate gums and soft tissue because they aren't customized to fit your mouth.
What if cosmetic teeth whitening won't work?
In some cases, especially where deep intrinsic stains exist, teeth whitening may not be the best option. We will review your case and can recommend other alternatives, like porcelain veneers or cosmetic crowns, if teeth whitening doesn't fit your situation.
Is teeth whitening safe?
Many dentists in Houston consider teeth bleaching to be the safest cosmetic dentistry procedure available today. With careful supervision, you can lighten your teeth up to 10 shades and take years off your appearance.
What about side effects of teeth whitening?
Some patients may develop mild sensitivity after whitening. Time and toothpaste that alleviates this sensation will help minimize any discomfort you might feel.

Rezension zu "Samson" von Shawn Hoffman
Set in Poland during WWII, Samson: A Savior Will Rise is inspired by true stories and based on real events. The book follows Samson Abrams, a Jewish boxer who is sent to Auschwitz with his entire family after he helps a young boy escape from being beaten by Nazis. At the camp he is soon recognized as an Olympic participant and offered a deal: he can box for his life (and the Nazis' entertainment). If he wins, he will receive extra portions of food. If he loses, he will be sent to the gas chambers. Samson will do anything to try and save his family…
The characters of Samson and his family are amalgamations of different but real persons. Hoffman also portrays historical events and figures such as the Catholic monk Maximilian Kolbe or the infamous camp physician Dr. Josef Mengele. Even if you are familiar with the history of WWII and the atrocities of the concentration camps in particular, I doubt you will be prepared for the more graphic details of some of the heinous experiments performed by Mengele.
Shawn Hoffman paints a vivid picture with his words. I wasn't surprised at all that he is a screenwriter. While reading the book I could visualize the entire story. Paradoxically, Samson is both easy to read because of the author's writing style while at the same time one of the most difficult books you'll ever read. It is a stomach-twisting, heart-wrenching and incredibly emotional book. I just couldn't put it down.
Despite all its heaviness, Samson is actually very inspirational. It's a story of pain and suffering beyond words but it is also a story of hope and faith, redemption and ultimately freedom in Christ.
At the beginning of the book, Hoffman quotes Eli Solomon, a holocaust survivor: "Some stories are easy to hear. Other stories simply must be told, no matter what the consequences." Samson is one such story that had to be told and hence must be read.

Weekly Report (August 03 to 09)
Kuang-Ting Eddie Hsiao, Aug. 9
|This week was truly very busy, on the one hand I need to help Felix did the extraction experiment. On the other hand, I need to process my purified experiment with Hybride SPE column. Although the days in lab were busy, I learned many things during the internship. Felix was very busy this week, because he needed to prepare for his doctor oral examination. So he ask Thomas led me to do the new experiment.
SPE extraction system.
|This new experiment was very similar to the Bligh and Dyer extraction method, but Thomas just adapt some steps and the solvent used in the experiment. The biggest different between the new method and the Bligh and Dyer one, was that the new one hydrolysis the sample before ultrasonic extracted. Thomas said that might increase recovery of the biomass. So he wanted to compare the different between this two methods. That was very interesting for me, because I also want to know the result of the new method. If the method could increase the recovery of the biomass, that might suit for used in the deep sea environment. However the experiment what we did now just use the culture sample, not the real sample obtained from the environment. Another problem was that the environment was full of "matrix", we need to exclude the matrix effect. Another interesting thing was that the way they washed the glass by the dish washer. That was very different with Taiwan.
|The dish washer.
|Last week we went to Asia market to buy the rice, however we didn't have rice cooker. Fortunately, Rishi told us that he had two rice cooker in his home, so he can lend us one. Finally, we can start to cook some Asia food. By the way, there are many small villages near berman, and there are the good place to relax after a busy weekday.

Tomb join a sub-genre of bands that create ritualistic, ambient noise devoid of melody or many other musical trappings in the quest to produce uniquely atmospheric illusions. Like other bands in this genre e.g., Abruptum, Emit, Nebiros; Tomb use distortion to mould sound to serve their purposes. Not loud and harsh to try and blind us to their weakness, this is artistic.
The construction of each song is relatively simple, but because of the motifs, can sound meticulous. In other words, careful layering allows each track to possess the ritualistic monotony, but retain a creative wave throughout. Tomb know how to implement an idea and when to introduce variations, this timing allows each song to drag on without losing its consistency.
The distorted backbone – which can be easily mistaken for a distorted guitar, but is more likely a digital effect – creates the thickest layer when used. The most possessive layer: percussion and samples form the rhythm and control the pace. Vocals are another ritualistic element which do not seem to bare much reliance on the music. This is an encouraged element in such environments – vocals naturally exorcised in chaotic heedlessness. The discharge of Demons is very rarely set to any timescale.
Included with the CD-R is an AVI video that features a clip of a cloaked figure hitting crypt doors for this recording. The results of which are heard through several tracks. The video also includes an interview.
A six-track six-year compilation of blackened torturous noise, which remains atmospheric and effectively complex. The type of music that must be played loud and with bass on full. Impressive early works by a mind that obviously knows how to construct valuable material, further projects will be anticipated.

Vietnamese coffee
Strong and flavourful Vietnamese coffee makes converts as quickly as it raises pulses. French colonists might have introduced coffee to Vietnam, but the morning cup of ca phe soon became a local habit. With variations that make use of yoghurt, eggs and even fruit, Vietnamese coffee has developed a style of its own.
Same but different
The preparation process, as well as the blend of beans, helps give Vietnamese coffee its particular style. Coarsely ground beans go into a French drip filter (called a phin), which sits on top of the cup. The beans are weighted down with a thin lid, hot water is added to the phin, and then the water slowly trickles through into the cup. Most people drink the resulting dark, strong brew with sweetened condensed milk, a practice that began because the French couldn't easily acquire fresh milk. In the north of Vietnam, this mixture is referred to as ca phe nau (brown coffee), while in the south it's called ca phe sua (milk coffee).

Types of coffee
Vietnam has far more to offer in the caffeine department than just coffee with milk. Below are a few more unique variations to look out for.
Yoghurt coffee (sua chua ca phe)
Like coffee, yoghurt was originally brought to Vietnam by the French and has been adopted into local culinary tradition. Rich and creamy, it's served with various toppings, from fresh mango to fermented rice – and even coffee. This might sound like an odd combination, but the rich yoghurt pairs amazingly well with a drizzle of black coffee – just stir and sip.

Egg coffee (ca phe trung)
Egg yolk whipped with condensed milk into an airy froth meets dark coffee in this rich concoction: think of it as a Vietnamese take on tiramisu. Egg coffee first made the scene in the 1940s, when milk was scarce and egg yolks provided a convenient replacement.

Coffee smoothie (sinh to ca phe)
In recent years, coffee has even found its way into smoothies. Popular juice shops perk up creamy blends of fresh fruit with a touch of Vietnamese coffee, sometimes tossing in yoghurt or cashews. In Hanoi, try sinh to ca phe chuoi bo (coffee blended with banana and avocado). In Ho Chi Minh City, go for sinh to ca phe sapoche (coffee blended with sapodilla, a tropical fruit with a custard-like taste). Both are delicious ways to get your caffeine fix and your vitamins at the same time.

Where to drink
Hanoi remains the undisputed centre of cafe culture in Vietnam. While modern-style coffee shops have grown in popularity, traditional sidewalk cafes still fill up from morning to night with drinkers of all ages, who linger for hours over a single glass. However, you can find quality coffee all over Vietnam. In Ho Chi Minh City, coffee is usually served in taller glasses and is slightly cheaper.

For the experience: Trieu Viet Vuong
Known as 'Coffee Street', this stretch of Hanoi's historic Hai Ba Trung District might contain more cafes per block than anywhere else in Vietnam, ranging from family-run shops to more fashionable places popular with teenagers. Hanoian favourite Cafe Tho (117 Trieu Viet Vuong), which has been here for three decades, brews a powerful cup that still draws consistent crowds.

For dessert: Cafe Giang
No trip to Hanoi is complete without a taste of egg coffee at the place it was invented. Cafe Giang (39 Nguyen Huu Huan), on the edge of Hanoi's Old Quarter, was the first to begin whipping up this drink/dessert in the 1940s. Since then the atmosphere has changed as little as the recipe. While the tiny stools here might not be the most comfortable, the drink itself is top notch. Those who don't drink coffee can sample the egg foam with sweetened mung beans or cocoa.
For the view: Cafe Pho Co
Accessed via an entrance concealed in the back of a shop, a spiral staircase leads up to Hanoi's Cafe Pho Co and a stunning view of Hoan Kiem Lake. From the quiet balcony overlooking the lake and surrounding streets, you can enjoy a coffee while watching the seemingly never-ending stream of traffic pass by.

For a blast from the past: Cafe La Tamia
A retro cafe in Ho Chi Minh City, La Tamia (38/05 Tran Khac Chan) offers visitors a glimpse into old Saigon. Relax on a vintage sofa or browse the cafe owner's collection of antique TVs and gramophones while enjoying your iced coffee.
Drink like a local
A few coffee-drinking tips for your Vietnam trip:
Milky way Don't even try to ask for decaf. If you prefer your coffee mild, do as the Vietnamese do and order ca phe bac xiu, coffee with lots of extra condensed milk.
Sweet spot As condensed milk is sweetened, there is no white coffee without sugar. True coffee connoisseurs should opt for ca phe den (black coffee). A touch of sugar will bring out the complex flavours, just as it does with dark chocolate. However, if you want to ensure that your drink isn't too sweet, ask for it duong (less sugar).
Avoid hunger Cafes in Vietnam don't typically serve food. Some newer cafes do offer quick eats, but you're better off following the local custom of eating first and then heading to a cafe to relax. In a pinch, you can always nibble on hat huong duong (sunflower seeds).

Chia seeds are a power house of fibre, calcium, protein, healthy fats, antioxidants, etc. Easy and delicious desserts can be made with it without much effort. You need to just combine it with milk and top it with your favourite fruits and nuts.
For a healthier version just add some honey, cardamom powder, saffron and rose / kewra water for the flavour. You have an absolutely yummy dessert in no time. It can be had as breakfast or as an after-meal dessert.
- 500 ml milk
- 5 tbsp. chia seeds
- 1/2 cup figs, chopped
- 1 tbsp. honey or to taste
- 1/4 tsp. cardamom powder
- pinch of saffron
- 1 tsp. rose / kewra water
- 1 tsp. pistachios, sliced
- 1 tsp. cherries, chopped
In a bowl, combine the milk, chia seeds, honey, cardamom powder, saffron, half of the figs and rose water. Cover and let it soak overnight (or a minimum of 2-3 hours).
While serving, top with the remaining figs, cherries and pistachios. Serve it for breakfast or as an after meal dessert.

In China, public education is free but competitive. There are examinations in middle school to determine which high school one will be placed into. In each city the high schools are ranked; the higher one's scores are, the better high school one can attend. Many high school students live on campus because their family may not live nearby.
It used to be extremely difficult to go to college due to the huge pool of students and the small amount of colleges. During my mother's time, only one or two students from a high school would be accepted into a college. Everything was determined by examinations taken at the end of the senior year of high school.
Now, though it is easier to get a college education, it still is rare to be accepted into a high-ranked college. Test scores still are the main determinant. This year, June 7-9 were the national testing dates for high school seniors. On these days, all the test takers in the nation gathered at designated testing centers to participate in the most important written examinations of their lives.
I went walking one afternoon and happened upon one of these testing centers. There were hordes of nervous parents waiting outside the gates to pick up their children. Police had to direct traffic and close down the road in front of the school to control the crowd. At around five in the afternoon students started to stream out of the school. Most were chattering with friends, relieved to be done with a hard day of testing.
In my opinion the Chinese education system focuses too much on rote memorization. There is little emphasis on creativity, leadership, or independent thinking. The importance placed on test scores and class rank puts too much pressure upon students. This is not to say that the American system is perfect either. After all, American students fall far behind Chinese students in areas such as math and science. However, a more holistic approach to education college admissions that look at the whole person instead of just numbers may lead to a more diverse and vibrant class of educated citizens.

Hey, that's the same in Singapore, and Korea, and practically all Asian countries, it seems! I have a huge problem with the way it is so...elite and privileged and competitive. It's complete textbook academics, and these students aren't prepared to face the real situations in a real world. Not to mention, they are pretty anti-social because of all the secluded studying.ReplyDelete
Yes, it's really sad because I've talked to some students and even though they are really impressive (middle schoolers learning calc), they basically do homework all night. Free time can be educational too!ReplyDelete

Finally, I manage an outfit post that isn't Aussie Curves! The weather got chilly enough to try out my galaxy print leggings from Domino Dollhouse. I thought an equally bright shirt needed to happen, and here we are.
My unicorn top is from an Etsy shop called Em and Sprout. Their 2x isn't quite big enough, it's a bit tight over my boobs and shoulders, but they don't go any higher in size, and I really wanted it. The print is so cute, and I've started liking pink things.
I got a 3x in the leggings but I think I went too big. They fit fine on my legs, but they are a bit loose around my hips. The leggings are a low cut, they come up to under my belly button. They are riding down a bit when I wear them, 'cos of the loose fit and low cut. I still love them though.
Had to show you a close up of my earrings, they are the cutest little strawberries. I got them half price from Big W.

This mainly concerns thrown grenades but I will include if I think they are better used in the grenade launcher or not.
Frag grenadesLarge blast is great the lower end strength is not that great though. More useful for wounding early in a campaign, later they get relegated to pinning duty. Great for keeping gangers from bunching up as they are still a good threat.
Better thrown
Krak grenades
The most powerful grenade but also the most limited in area of effect. It can only hit one target so make sure its a good one. If you do wound your target they are likely to go OOA with a large damage of D6. They do have a -1 to hit when thrown for being bulky though. They can also be used as makeshift demo charges like a poor mans melta bombs. Great for taking out gateways and water stills, note that if they are allocated for a grenade launcher they can't be used in this way.
Better in the grenade launcher
Plasma grenades
Decent power and a small blast that stays in place and has a chance to stay for a few turns. This makes them great for denying enemy heavies the opportunity to shoot. Move and you can't shoot - stay and take a S5 hit.
The blast marker blocks line of sight while still in play, so it can be worth firing it even if you know you are out of range just to block some incoming fire on you opponents turn.
Better where you need it... got krak in your launcher already? give them to your combat guy. No krak in the launcher? Put in on that guy!
Melta bombs
These are a little clunky, they can only be used for demolition. For their price I don't see them as being worth it. You are better off with krak grenades. I would even sell them if one of my gang invented them. They are also the only item in this class that can't be used in the grenade launcher.
Smoke bombs
These are primarily used to block line of sight, the smoke stays in play and has a good chance of staying around for a while.
A good use for them is to have a high value gang member such as your leader or a heavy walk out into the open to get a better shot. Then after they have fired have another member who has smoke bombs drop them down in front to block line of sight and prevent retaliation.
If you are lucky enough to have bionic eyes on a ganger you can even use them to gain an under hand in combat. As smoke halves a models WS unless they have bionic eyes.
Best thrown
Photon flash flares
Very underused, but very effective. Models hit take an initiative test if passed they are WS + BS 1 for a turn. If they fail they are WS 1 and can only stumble half their movement in a random direction. If you use these a lot expect the other gangs to pick up photo contacts and visors. If used on you... buy photo contacts soonest!
Best thrown
Choke grenades
The cheapest of the gas grenades, stays in play the same as a smoke bomb. Models hit take a toughness test or go "down" note that all they have to do is leave the cloud to get back up. They have not actually lost any wounds and no exp is awarded. They do however follow the same rules for being down, so they will go out automatically in combat.
This can be used nicely in what I call the "Choke charge". Using either a ganger with either high toughness, filter plugs or better yet a respirator you charge your target. A second ganger then throws or shoots the choke grenades into the combat. If the target goes "down" due to the gas they will automatically go OOA in your combat phase. This does not award any exp but is a great way to get rid of multi wound gangers.
Best thrown
Scare grenades
Another gas grenade stays in play again. Failing the toughness test for this one makes gangers "broken" and have to flee. They are able to test to recover once they meet the same requirements as any other model that get broken. Using a variation on the choke charge you can take models out, but gain exp. The model that fails the test flees and takes a free hit from the attacking model. So this method can award exp, and even if you fail to take the ganger down and out they are still broken.
Best thrown
Hallucinogen grenades
Again a gas grenade that stays in play.
The most complicated and expensive gas grenade but the most fun. Lots of different outcomes such as shooting in a random direction, being pinned for a turn or actively shooting a friendly model. The price of them is off putting but well worth it, the main downside is you can't gain exp from them so mainly you will want to shoot other ammo or weapons. But it is well worth it, with the gas cloud you are likely to hit more than one ganger and very likely to take them out of the fight for at least one turn if not more.
Better in the grenade launcher you don't want to be anywhere near the chaos they create!

An introduction about Jane Eyre
Jane Eyre, both of whose parents died of typhus, is an orphan. Her aunt Sarah Reed adopted her because it's the dying wish of Jane Eyre's uncle. But Jane's aunt doesn't like her and treats her badly, just like a servant. She and her three children, especially her son John Reed, are abusive to Jane, physically and emotionally, which makes the little Jane often stay alone and develop a rebellious character. One day because Jane's resistance against John Reed's insult and beating, she is locked in the red-room by Mrs. Reed. Because her uncle died in the red-room, Jane is terribly terrified by his ghost. After this the Reed family cannot tolerant Jane anymore. Mrs. Reed sends Jane to Lowood School for girls with the accusation that she is deceitful.
Lowood School is a charity school run by the hypocritical and self-righteous Mr. Brocklehurst. The conditions in Lowood School are extremely terrible and the study and work ethic is very harsh. During an inspection, Jane accidentally breaks her slate, and Mr. Brocklehurst says her is a liar and humiliates her before the whole pupils and teachers. Jane gets some comforts from her newly met friend and later her best friend, Helen Burns, who often helps Jane to endure personal injustice and believe in God, though Jane doesn't quite agree with her. And Miss Temple, a caring teacher, also helps to ease Jane's pain. She helps Jane to make a self-defense and writes to Mr. Lloyd whose reply agrees with Jane's. Finally, Jane is publicly cleared of Mr. Brocklehurst's accusations.
Because of long time of suffering from cold rooms, poor meals, and thin clothing, many students fall ill and die when a typhus epidemic strikes Lowood School. Jane's best friend Helen dies of consumption in her arms. During the epidemic Mr. Brocklehurst's neglect and dishonesty are discovered, and new management takes over. A new building is built and conditions at the school are improved dramatically. In the new school, under newly caring teachers, Jane lives and learns happily for six years and then teaches there for 2 years. When Jane is eighteen, she leaves Lowood for her mentor Miss Temple marries and leaves Lowood and for she wants a change for herself.
She posts an advertisement on a newspaper for her services as a private turor, and receives an offer from Alice Fairfax, the house-keeper of Thornfield Hall. She takes the position and becomes the governess of Adele Varens, a young French girl. One day she comes across a horseman in trouble and helps him. She then finds that this man is Edward Rochester, master of Thornfield house. Adele, whose mother discards her to Mr. Rochester's care, is his ward, and she could be his daughter. As time goes by, Mr. Rochester and Jane get on well with each other and enjoy being together. Mr. Rochester plays a trick on Jane by pretending to marry the beautiful Blanche Ingram he invites to Thornfield but it finally turns out to be a trick on Ingram: her plan of marrying Mr. Rochester fails. For the next days, their relationship goes better, and they find they have fallen in love with each other.
However, odd things frequently happen at the house: Jane often hears strange laughters; one night she rescues Mr. Rochester from a mysterious fire in his bedroom; and another night she helps Mr. Rochester bind up and secretly send away a guest named Mr. Mason, who is attacked. Although Mr. Rochester blames all these odd things on an oddball servant, Grace Poole, Jane is somewhat suspicious of it.
Jane leaves Thornfield to caring for her dying aunt Mrs. Reed. She gives Jane a letter from Jane's uncle, John. Soon after, her aunt dies, and Jane returns to Thornfield.
After returning to Thornfield, Jane consents Mr. Rochester's love for Jane and his proposes. As she prepares for her wedding, odd things happen again: a strange, horrible woman sneaks into her room one night and tears her wedding veil in two. Rochester attributes the incident to Grace Poole again. During the small wedding ceremony, a lawyer declares that Mr. Rochester cannot marry because he is married to Mr. Mason's sister, which is confirmed by Mr. Mason. Mr. Rochester reluctantly admits it is true, but explains his wife is crazy and that he was tricked into marrying her. She is locked in Thornfield under the care of Grace Poole. She escaped and did all the previous mysterious events at Thornfield when Grace got drunk. Mr. Rochester pleads with Jane to go with him to the south of France, and live as husband and wife, even though they cannot be married. But Jane refuses to be his mistress because it goes against her principles. Although being deeply falling in love with Mr. Rochester, Jane leaves Thornfield in the middle of the night.
Jane travels through a strange region with little money for three days, during which time she begs, sleeps in the wild, and even nearly starves to death. Exhausted, the ill Jane faints in front of the door of Moor House, the home of Diana, Mary and St. John Rivers. The Rivers save her. In the Moor House, all the Rivers treat Jane as kindly as if she is one member of the family. Jane quickly regains her health. St. John finds her a teaching position at a nearby charity school. The Rivers sisters leave for governess jobs and St. John becomes closer with Jane. A letter from Jane's uncle's lawyer states that her uncle John has died and left her 20,000 pounds. The letter also reveals that the Rivers are her cousins. Overjoyed by finding her family, Jane insists on sharing the money equally with her cousins.
St. John plans to go to India as a missionary, and he wants Jane accompany him as his wife. Jane refuses him because she feels no love affection for him, and inside her heart, she still loves Mr. Rochester. She feels the call from Mr. Rochester, so she soon leaves to seek for him.
Jane finds Thornfield is burnt into ruins. The fire setter, Mr. Rochester's wife, committed suicide by jumping from the roof in the fire. Mr. Rochester lost one hand and his eyesight when he was trying to rescue his wife and the servants. Jane reunites with him at Ferndean. She assures him of her love and promises will always to stay with him. They marry, bring back Adele, and have a baby. Mr. Rochester eventually regains sight in one eye.

text: - An easy fix to tidy up ribbons is to raid your stationary draw for bull dog clips to hold large ribbons and paper-clips to hold small. For small pieces of paper roll up and secure with an elastic band store with the ribbons on a tray or in a basket. If you have a lot of ribbons on spools you can use a wire coat hanger – use padded pliers to unravel, and then thread spools on to hanger. Re Close gently and hang in a closet. For rolls of paper, store in a clean waste paper basket or any tall container, Store in same closet. If you have any pieces of material that are not big enough to use for dressmaking or soft furnishings take the time now to sew up the sides to make gift bags to use later.

- Written by Lucy Pretty
I hate first dates, fact. They're pit of the stomach nauseating in the build-up and sometimes just plain awkward! However, it doesn't help that I have a pretty male sense of humour at times. (Does not go down well, believe me. Wish I was sweet and charming!) Looking all pretty then exclaiming, "waaaay, that's what she said!" generally keeps me staring down from that dusty shelf. Hey, I make myself laugh, and that's all that matters(should really start a cat breeding program though. I think it's time!).
Then there's the game that begins if the man in question has tolerated the ridiculousness that's come out of your mouth, and you genuinely like each other. Playing it cool and trying not to look super keen. Argh! It drives me mental. Just text or call me! Look like a keen bean, I don't care. Because all I want to do is text or call you... And I'm not even going to talk about the bit where you stalk ALL forms of social media like a total nut job and get completely paranoid! Why do we go so crazy? We're mostly cool calm and collected. Especially us ladies in our 30s. We've dealt with enough game playing players to know the score. So why, why, why?
Anyway, a poor soul had the pleasure (hah) of my company last week. Going out for dinner (I normally don't do dinner on a first date. Eating in front of someone you're attracted to isn't the one. Yes I'm weird! But this was a special case) on Friday night and drinks locally. A causal but like I'd made an effort look was required, so I wore a black jersey dress from Topshop with sheer polka dot tights, Chelsea boots and a leather jacket. Though I unfortunately had to take my crutches along as I'm still very much a hop along. (Who knew bones took so god damn long to heal! Coming up five months! I'm not impressed. Not sure anyone can style that crap out - I looked like a top notch invalid. Such a quality date right now! Got way more than he bargained for.)
In order to distract from the peg leg, pretty easy going make-up was required. Which went as follows: Steam Cream and a good old prime with Murad Hybrids Skin Perfecting Primer. Always starting with the eyes, opting for a simple smoky eye in khaki green with gold highlights at the inner corners. I used Relvon Colourstay Smoky Shadow Stick 205 Atomic, and Jemma Kidd Make Up School Define Stay-Put Eyeliner in Kingfisher to define my peepers. I finished with coats and coats of Revlon Lash Potion mascara (about four).
Using Nars Sheer Glow Foundation in Santa Fe I added a touch of Revlon Photo Ready Skinlights Face Illuminator 200 Pink Light Clair Rose to cheekbones and the bridge of my nose. Then Jemma Kidd Make Up School Perfect Tan Bronzing Trio here and there, and a sweep of stila Custom Color Blusher in pink on the apples of my cheeks - I wanted to look fresh and radiant. Which was actually really hard after the longest week in the world. Tired didn't cover it. Anyway, I then fixed everything up with Bare Minerals Illuminating Mineral Veil.
Eyebrows were defined in Jemma Kidd Make Up School Brow & Eye Kit and lips glossed up with Nivea Lip Butter, and I was hot to trot.
Looking none too shabby and hopefully acceptable, the young man in question was a mega gent and held my crutches. Pretty sure that makes him a keeper, right?

That's the clinic. Tiny. And the hospital is just across the street. The whole thing is just about the same size. If I needed an x-ray for someone in the clinic, they had to walk across the street to get it, then I had to walk across the street to go look at it. The resources were just so limited. And I must say it made me love Williston. The hospital and the town :) This little bunny was right out side my office window the first morning in clinic. He stayed and stared at me for a minute or two and then bounded off, never to be seen of again. I thought it was cool. Anyway - they set us up in these little apartments hooked on to the nursing home around the corner from the clinic. They weren't bad. This was the first one I stayed in. Like anyone cares. But memories for me someday, I suppose.
In other working news - Tanner had a fun work party last week. It was their summer fun picnic or something. Just for the local Enbridge guys. Who Tanner really likes, so that is cool. I guess every year they have someone from the community come do a presentation or something. This year he asked me to ask Guardian - a new life flight helicopter company - if they'd come and talk to them. They said yes and that they'd even bring the helicopter. AND they'd give me a ride over to the park in it! Score. Get off work early and go for my first helicopter ride ever.
