Ncam's virtual set previews continue to impress. And nowhere are its capabilities better shown off than on Disney's new adaption of The Nutcracker.
No matter how much money you've got, and Disney has a lot of money, there's a limit to how huge a set you can build. And if you're going to produce a film based on The Nutcracker, which takes place in a land made entirely of fairytale tropes – castles, bottomless gorges, spooky forests – you're going to need more set than even the best-appointed movie can possibly provide.
Scene as shot
Solutions to this aren't new, but CG hasn't always been easy to use. "Get out of here," says Qui-Gon Jinn, staring at a point just above Jar-Jar Binks's head. His sentiment is understandable. His eye-line isn't. Still, that was 20 years ago, and realtime on-set previews have been possible for a while. Even so, as late as Avatar, a lot of custom software engineering was needed to give James Cameron an immediate idea of where things would be in the frame.
With on-set preview
More recent projects have begun to use more off-the-shelf systems as the technology matures. The underlying approach is more or less the same as virtual sets for live production, relying on various combinations of camera tracking and lens encoding techniques to provide a computer with enough information about which direction we're supposed to be pointing to and what's supposed to be in the frame. Anyone who's been in a news studio and seen a bunch of circular barcodes stuck to the ceiling will be familiar with one of these techniques; others rely on tracking markers in the frame or scattered around. Varying degrees of surveying and preparation are often needed, as well as mapping out lenses for focus and distortion behaviour.
Final shot
The Nutcracker and the Four Realms, to give the production its full title, used Ncam's camera tracking system – visible on the photos as the camera bar slung under the matte box rods on DP Linus Sandgren's Panaflex, though there's more to it than just the optical tracking. And yes, a Panaflex. The Nutcracker was shot on film, meaning that on-set previews were based on video tap images. Ncam's system is designed to minimise the amount of setup required, especially in terms of formally surveying the studio, but it has a few other tricks up its sleeve which some people may have encountered at trade shows over the last year or two.
Ncam stereoscopic cameras
Perhaps the most immediately engaging option is what we might call an environment camera, designed to shoot a very wide-angle, almost spherical view of the surrounding world that can be used to simulate reflections and lighting on the surface of rendered objects. That wasn't used for Nutcracker, but it will probably find application in live sports studios and news broadcasting. On one occasion, it was demonstrated with a video wall displaying coloured patterns of light which were accurately simulated in illumination of the virtual object, and it's possible for a presenter to walk up to the virtual object and be reflected in it. There are always issues of delay in a system like this, with at least a frame or so required to get the mathematics done, but these seem well controlled in Ncam's system.
As shot
The most visible part of the system, that two-camera setup attached to the rods, is easily recognisable as a stereoscopic pair. That gives the system some knowledge of how far away objects are in a scene – up to a certain distance limit, presumably – though the cameras are much further apart than human eyes, so that distance will be reasonably long. That sort of depth sensing is an imperfect technology that generally produces fairly noisy data, which is why focus pullers haven't been completely replaced by systems based on depth cameras, but the Ncam system is good enough to allow real world people to walk around behind and in front of virtual objects.
Preview shot
The application of all this to live events is clear. With a feature film, it's a convenience on the set, but with Nutcracker the roughly composited shots were used in the edit and for early test versions of the film, taking out a lot of donkey work. As the photos show, a lot of it was set extension and the sort of backdrops that have been reasonably common for years, but even that's not simple if the camera crew has accidentally cropped out the tallest spire on the Disney princess's castle because it wasn't going to be rendered until six weeks later.
With Panaflex
And – though this doesn't directly involve Ncam – notice that the production went at least sometimes for blue, rather than the more common green backdrops. This was often the approach for film productions, though modern compositing systems are capable of doing a workable job on almost anything. Perhaps the choice was provoked by the colour of the background that would eventually be there, or the need to avoid matching a costume colour.

This is a sponsored post by Regain.us. All opinions are my own.
I got married for the first time when I was 18, had my first child at 19, and divorced at 20. Now I can say with confidence that getting married at 18 was not a great decision on my part, I was not mature enough by any means. However, I got a beautiful, smart, strong daughter out of it who I am very proud of and love very much. Although it took many years, her father and I (and step-father and step-mother) co-parent pretty well.
So, why am I telling you this? Because I tried couple's counseling with my ex-husband. AND I HATED IT!
Now, again, I was very young and immature and wasn't willing to really work on my marriage. I was unhappy and wanted out and I didn't care what any counselor had to say to me.
Again, I was 18/19 years old.
Now I am remarried to a wonderful and supportive man and we celebrated our 10 year anniversary in September 2018. It hasn't been an easy ride, but we work hard at our marriage.
However, if I felt that my husband and I ever needed to attend couple's counseling, I would not hesitate to make the investment to save our marriage.
I'm sure you are thinking to yourself…
Investment, doesn't that mean a lot of money? I can't afford that!
Want access to the Free Printables Library with loads of resources for saving money, making a side income, and managing the money you already have? Enter your info below to get instant access to all the FREE goodies!
Let's take a realistic look at this for a moment and really consider the cost and the benefits. If you are serious about saving your marriage, it's it worth a couple hundred dollars? Besides, divorce is WAY more expensive, especially if there are children involved and the couple can't agree on anything.
Realistically, couples only need a few sessions (around 6 or so) to really make a lasting, positive impact on their marriage.

Therapy vs. Divorce
We all know that divorce can suck, whether you have had one or not.
I was lucky enough with my divorce that my ex-husband and I were very amicable and able to proceed with our divorce through Pro Se and if memory serves correctly, it only cost us about $800 total. However, there are many situations where a Pro Se divorce is not possible.
According to Legal Zoom, the average cost of a contested divorce can cost anywhere between $15,000 to $30,000!
I personally know people that have spent this on divorce. It's not a pretty site.
There are also costs beyond the actual divorce. Splitting assets, having to get different housing, furnishing a new home, purchasing 2 sets of everything for children, the list goes on.
Now, sometimes due to circumstances, divorce may be necessary (such as with abuse). However, there are many divorces that could be prevented and marriages saved with a little bit of counseling.
As with many situations in life, it can be difficult to have an objective view of a situation when you are directly "in the trenches" so to speak. Sometimes, couples just need that objective point of view to be able to realize their issues.
Couples therapy can help couples to create open lines of communications, set healthy boundaries with one another, improve their romantic relationship, or become united in their parenting methods.
On average, it takes couples around 6 sessions at about 40-50 minutes per session to really make progress. Each of these sessions can cost about $100. Which in reality, is far less expensive than getting a divorce.
So before you sign divorce papers, why not consider at least giving couples therapy a try?

Question: if I'm going to be out of town March 1 can I mail in my vote?
John Wren's personal opinion: No, your neighborhood caucus is a deliberative body, voting in it by mail would be like serving on a jury but skipping the trial and just mailing in you guilty or not guilty decision.
You have a couple of months, if it's very important to you, maybe you can rearrange your schedule.
Otherwise be part of the sample in two years, and you can certainly work in your neighborhood and elsewhere for the candidate of your choice between now and March 1 to influence those who will be taking their turn for "jury duty" in our representative system the Colorado Caucus, the best chance the common person as of serving in elected public office.
For the official answer contact the Colorado Secretary of States office, they are doing a better and better job explaining the Colorado Caucus.
I've suggested part of the Secretary of States job be to put on a TV special and info in the blue book explaining the virtues of our two party system Colorado Caucus, and the enhanced ability it gives the person without great wealth or other power to serve their neighbors as their elective representative or party leader.
Other opinions on this? Please post as a comment here. If you do call the Colorado Secretary of State please let us know what they say to you, ok?
Next question?

Four Reasons Your Business Blog Isn't Getting Traffic
Mike Seidle
There are four major reasons your business blog's bounce rate may be high.
1. Bad Traffic - People aren't looking for or expecting what they get when they enter your blog.
2. Too Complicated - People get lost because there's too much going on and it's not easy to see where to start.
3. Poor Performance - Slow loads, error messages, unprofessional content, etc...
4. WTF - Visitors arrive at your homepage or blog post page and promptly say "WTF!" because the page is unorganized, off-topic, cluttered, etc.
Fixing each reason is easy, just follow these tried & tested tips...
Bad Traffic
How to Identify
Check how much traffic is being sent by weak advertising programs like directed traffic (people who are forced to go to your site), pop-under ads and unrelated paid search ads. If there's a lot, you may want to re-think these programs. Look at your site statistics package's search keywords report. If they are unrelated to your site, you've found the culprit.
The Fix
Make sure that links and traffic sources match the message on your page. In other words, create headlines and excerpts that succinctly describe the blog post and make sure any anchor text links used in blog promotion efforts accurately reflect the content of the referenced blog post or page.
Too Complicated
How to Identify
This one is hard to diagnose because your blog probably seems simple to you. You've got a homepage, a blog page and regular pages, right? Not exactly... You also have archive pages, author pages, tag pages, sidebar items (widgets), and perhaps a few other types of pages depending on your theme. So, what to do?
The Fix
Fixing a complicated page requires you to identify and eliminate unnecessary options, widgets, links, graphics, and aesthetics. Look at your blog's page structure & navigational system from the perspective of your reader. Give them what they want easily and quickly.
Poor Perfomance
How to Identify
Use a free service such as Google Webmaster Tools to identify broken links, slow loading pages and other potential errors which detract from visitor experience. Or, make sure your browser is set to show page load activity. Then, go through each section of your blog, each type of page, and watch the bottom of your browser to see if there is something that has to load which slow down page load time.
The Fix
Once you have identified the page loading problems, whether it is a poorly written widget or a over coded header.php, get someone who knows CSS and pHp to change the code and speed things up. If Google Webmaster Tools identifies lots of broken links, get to work redirecting those links.
The WTF Factor
How to Identify
Of all the problems, this is the hardest one to overcome and the most common. Why? Because many business blogs are crafted by a staff that is either overworked or under-trained (or both) and assume that their blog is easy navigate and their content is sufficient. Here's how to identify WTF problems in four simple but probably painful steps:
The Fix
1. Have someone you trust read a few of your key posts & pages out loud.
2. Ask them, "What do you think this page or post is about, what would you do next?"
3. Allow them to navigate the blog and notice if they can find the content they are looking for.
4. Let them debrief you with an honest appraisal of your business' blog and be willing to listen.

This series consists of talks in the areas of Particle Physics, High Energy Physics & Quantum Field Theory.
Cosmic-ray anti-deuterium and anti-helium have long been suggested as probes of dark matter, as their secondary astrophysical production was thought extremely scarce. But how does one actually predict the secondary flux? Anti-nuclei are dominantly produced in pp collisions, where laboratory cross section data is lacking. We make a new attempt at tackling this problem by appealing to a scaling law of nuclear coalescence with the physical volume of the hadronic emission region. The same volume is probed by Hanbury Brown-Twiss (HBT) two-particle correlations.
Primordial black holes (PBHs) can appear from early Universe dynamics. We show that some or all of heavy element abundance from r-process nucleosynthesis can be produced in interactions of tiny primordial black holes with neutron stars (NSs), if PBHs make up a few percent or more of the dark matter. A PBH captured by a NS will eventually consume it. For a rapidly rotating pulsar, the resulting star spin-up will eject significant amount of cold neutron rich material.
Quantum non-demolition measurements performed using qubit-based artificial atoms may enable the next generation of higher mass dark matter axion search experiments. These QND measurements can precisely determine the amplitude of the photon wave sourced by the dark matter axions while placing the back reaction noise into the phase quadrature.
A permanent non-zero electric dipole moment of the free neutron (nEDM) violates CP-symmetry. The search for an nEDM contributes to understanding the Baryon asymmetry,
as well as it has a high discovery potential for Beyond Standard Model physics. The tool of choice to investigate the nEDM are ultracold neutrons (UCN), since they have such low energies that they can be stored in traps and allow observation times of hundreds of seconds.
Any quantum field theory can be thought of as arising from a perturbed UV conformal field theory, suggesting that information about the full RG flow is encoded in the original CFT. I will discuss ongoing work developing new methods for extracting this information to study strongly-coupled IR dynamics. This method uses a UV basis of conformal Casimir eigenstates to construct the Hamiltonian, which is then truncated at some maximum Casimir eigenvalue and diagonalized to approximate the low energy spectrum of the IR theory.
In the framework of the ordinary seesaw model with right-handed neutrinos (and nothing else) we show that the total lepton number violating decay of the Higgs doublet into a right-handed neutrino and a standard model lepton can successfully account for the baryon asymmetry of the Universe. This is possible thanks to thermal effects shortly before the sphalerons decouple.
We derive in the framework of soft collinear effective field theory (SCET) a Lagrangian describing the t-channel exchange of Glauber quarks, which are incorporated through fermionic potential operators in the effective theory. The Wilson line structure of the operators, which is derived from matching calculations and the symmetries of the effective theory, describe additional soft and collinear emissions from a fermionic t-channel exchange in the forward scattering limit to all orders.
Since the Higgs, the LHC has offered no discoveries despite a sweeping hunt for new resonances.
Sub-GeV dark matter is a theoretically motivated but largely unexplored paradigm of dark matter. In this talk, I will discuss recent work on the direct detection of sub-GeV dark matter through dark matter-electron scattering. I will present some motivated models that can be probed with these techniques as well as projections for current and near-term noble liquid, semiconductor, and scintillator experiments. Finally, I will discuss some new techniques that may allow us to more robustly discriminate between dark matter signatures and background.
Utilizing the Fermi measurement of the gamma-ray spectrum toward the Galactic Center, we derive some of the strongest constraints to date on the dark matter (DM) lifetime in the mass range from hundreds of MeV to above an EeV. Our profile-likelihood based analysis relies on 413 weeks of Fermi Pass 8 data from 200 MeV to 2 TeV, along with up-to-date models for diffuse gamma-ray emission within the Milky Way.

WARNING: This post contains mild spoilers for Aquaman
Jason Momoa made his DC universe debut in Justice League but his solo outing barely referred to it.
James Wan was at the helm of Aquaman, which is set after the events of Joss Whedon's crossover film and centres on the battle between brothers as Arthur Curry tries to prevent the destruction of land-dwellers by forces from the below the sea.
The film begins with an origin tale of how Arthur's mother Atlanna (Nicole Kidman) and father Thomas (Temuera Morrison) met, fell in love and were forced apart before we get to him in the present day doing his superhero bit.
Clearly, since the Justice League stopped Steppenwolf's invasion he has decided to no longer keep a low profile and how people are asking him for selfies.
It's just after this scene that Mera (Amber Heard) meets Arthur to get his help, referencing how he helped stop Steppenwolf as a reason to help stop King Orm (Patrick Wilson) from waging war on the dry land.
And that is pretty much it for the Justice League references and that's because Wan wanted it like that.
Speaking in August to Entertainment Weekly, the director said: "I wanted to keep the story to the world of Aquaman and not have to worry about what other characters are doing in their films and how that would affect us. I just thought the simplest way was to keep it clean — keep it simple and let it be an Aquaman story."

There are already quite a number of free call online services but most of them probably will die off after some times. Here I just discover one that hopefully can give you some additional free call credits so that you can stay closed with your love one if they are far apart from you. Named as PokeTalk, it gives away free credits to all its subscribers, enabling them to make free calls, either from landline or mobile (depending on geography locations) to over 55 countries at zero cost.
Similar to other service providers, PokeTalk maintains its revenue by collecting advertising fees and some of the collections will be used to subsidy the international free calls that you made. Great thing is, no download or any additional peripheral is needed and it just works great on your existing landline/mobile number. What you need to do is just sign up for new account free here by entering your email address and password, then just login into the email account and click on confirmation link and that is all. By logging onto the website and key in the caller and recipient numbers, the system will help you establishing the voice communication session by dialing to both parties simultaneously.
Note that there is a maximum monthly quote that users can use which will be reset on the 1st day of every month. Not to worry about running out of credit, PokeTalk actually do encourage more people to join its network and hence is giving additional 1 bonus call for every new friend that you introduced, and additional 10 minutes talk time if they sign up for the free call. PokeTalk covers most of the countries in the world but in case you are not sure if your geography area is covered under this free plan, please check it out here.

Students selected to participate in the People to People Student Ambassadors program are presented with a fantastic opportunity to learn about the world we live in and spend time actually interacting with a different culture. The education and experience students receive during these trips is a once in a lifetime chance. But the trips aren't cheap and unless you have very wealthy family members, chances are pretty good you are going to need some People to People fundraising ideas.
The problem you will quickly run in to is finding club fundraisers that make sense for an individual raising money for themselves. You see, most fund raising programs have minimum order levels or require you to pay something up front to get started. And while that is all fine and dandy for groups of even just 10 people, it can seem insurmountable for a People to People fundraising idea because it's just 1 person selling.
But worry not because there is a great new program that we are very excited to announce that is absolutely perfect for People to People participants. It is called the Online Donation Fundraiser and it is completely changing the way that people raise money.
Because of the aforementioned challenges of normal People to People Student Ambassadors fundraising programs, most students instead opted to seek out donations or get summer jobs to earn the money to pay for their trip. But you were often limited in the number of people you could contact and it could be difficult to collect money from people who lived far away from you. The online People to People donation fundraiser is great though because every step in the fund raising process can be completed online.
You simply create your donation page which is absolutely free and takes a total of about 5 minutes to complete. Once you are done with that, you will have a customized page made just for you that is ready to accept donations to fund your People to People fundraising efforts right away. The system has a set of tools that you use to send out email requests to people you know and you can even include links to your donation fundraiser page on your facebook profile. Remember, with this People to People fundraising idea you are not selling a product but you do need to let people know about your fundraiser and make sure they can find you!
"Thank you for your great customer service- I very much appreciate it!!"
"It's refreshing to work with a company that recognizes how tired we are of "hard sell" tactics. We were looking for a fund raiser with useful products, a message of conservation, no nonsense organization and great follow through. We found it!! Thanks so much!"
"Thanks for all your assistance with our fundraiser. You
have really made this a great experience for us."
"Thank you for being so easy to work with on this fundraiser and I know who I will be contacting for future fundraisers : )"

THE COLONY, TX -- (Marketwired) -- 11/16/15 -- Quest Resource Holding Corporation (NASDAQ: QRHC) ("Quest"), a leader in sustainability, recycling, and resource management, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2015.
Third Quarter 2015 Highlights
Subsequent to the end of the third quarter, the Board of Directors appointed Michael Golden as Interim Chief Executive Officer. In addition, the Company also announced that Tim Semones, an industry veteran with nearly 30 years of operational experience in recycling and sustainability services, had been promoted to Chief Operating Officer from Senior Vice President of Operations.
Michael Golden, Interim Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Two weeks ago, I assumed the day-to-day leadership of Quest at the request of the board on which I have served as an independent director since 2012. Throughout my career I have implemented strategic initiatives that capitalize on a company's growth prospects, improved operational efficiency, and created sustainable long-term value for shareholders. Working together with an experienced senior leadership team, I will focus my efforts on further expanding our customer base and extracting operational efficiencies to improve our gross margins and put the Company firmly on a path to sustainable profitability. At the same time, we have already begun the search for a permanent CEO."
"While we have work to do in order to put the Company on a path to sustained profitable growth, Quest remains strategically well-positioned in a compelling and dynamic industry," added Mr. Golden. "During the third quarter, we broadened our client base with the addition of one of the largest nationwide chains of full service auto maintenance and repair centers. We are on schedule to begin delivering on this multi-year agreement during the fourth quarter."
Mr. Golden continued, "Lower commodity pricing continues to overshadow the revenue growth we achieved from new clients and new locations. Excluding the effect of commodity prices, third quarter revenue grew in the low-to-mid double digits year-over-year. We continue to believe the increase in volume from new client locations in the automotive aftermarket will positively impact our commodity-related business as commodity prices rebound."

RevenueFor the third quarter of 2015, revenue was $43.6 million, a decrease of $3.4 million, or 7.3%, compared with $47.0 million for the third quarter of 2014.
Net Loss per ShareNet loss per basic and diluted share was $(0.01) for the third quarter of 2015 compared with a net loss per basic and diluted share of $(0.05) for the third quarter of 2014.
EBITDASAdjusted EBITDAS was $(286,000) for the third quarter of 2015 compared with Adjusted EBITDAS of $908,000 for the third quarter of 2014. (See attached table "Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDAS.")
Nine Month Financial Results
RevenueFor the nine months ended September 30, 2015, revenue was $125.9 million, a decrease of $1.8 million, or 1.4%, compared with $127.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Net Loss per ShareNet loss per basic and diluted share was $(0.04) for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared with a net loss per basic and diluted share of $(0.08) for the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
EBITDASAdjusted EBITDAS was $(641,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared with Adjusted EBITDAS of $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. (See attached table "Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDAS.")

Reconciliation of U.S. GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial MeasuresIn this press release, a certain non-GAAP financial measure, "Adjusted EBITDAS," is presented. From time to time, Quest considers and uses this supplemental measure of operating performance in order to provide an improved understanding of underlying performance trends. The company believes it is useful to review, as applicable, both GAAP measures that include (i) amortization of acquired intangible assets, (ii) acquisition-related costs, (iii) debt extinguishment costs, (iv) interest expense, (v) income taxes, (vi) depreciation and amortization, (vii) stock-based compensation expense, and non-GAAP measures that exclude such information. Quest presents this non-GAAP measure because it considers it an important supplemental measure of Quest's performance. Quest's definition of this adjusted financial measure may differ from similarly named measures used by others. Quest believes this measure facilitates operating performance comparisons from period to period by eliminating potential differences caused by the existence and timing of certain expense items that would not otherwise be apparent on a GAAP basis. This non-GAAP measure has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the company's GAAP measures. (See attached table "Reconciliation of Net Loss to Adjusted EBITDAS.")

I do not understand the concept for shadows in TS.
Shadows are separated, so from sequence 292 on there is always the shadow.ok
How do I show the shadow to the unit then?
This does not work:
Neither the shadow is shown. Nor does the unit run trough its sequences then.
Code: Select all
Start: 8
Length: 6
Start: 300
Length: 6
Facings: 8
Tick: 100
Does anyone know how to do that?
I am of course able to show the SHADWO alone running
This just shows a running shadow, without the unit itself... (sequence 300)
Code: Select all
Start: 300

Okay so I'm on a search to find the BEST Athletic Vegan homemade protein bars!
I have not tried them myself so I'm in the gather information phase and will follow up with my own how – to video or recipe! Since I workout and truly LOVE athletics in many forms I think I owe it to myself to put my feet in it lol Searching on Youtube I found the non vegan forms better for some reason, well for one, they are simple. I like simple. Add some vegan favorites but keep it simple, why not? I saw a few vegan chefs who by the looks of their bodies do not train or have consistent fitness routines and their recipes were complicated and long, some where even baked!! BAKED?!! I didn't understand that lol Not against baking by why if you don't have too?
So here's what I found! Bon Apetit! I will be returning to this post to update and add my own recipe but I'm getting ready to travel and will be out and about the next few days!!!! Yeah!

Romans 12:1-2
The worst thing that ever happened to the church occurred in 313 AD. It wasn't increased persecution, it wasn't systematic annihilation of Christians. It was the legalization of Christianity by the emperor Constantine. Everything changed – persecution was replaced by a freedom for Christianity, a distrust of Christianity by the embracing of Christianity, instead of hidden secret meetings they started building church buildings.
All that sounds good (how many times have you heard someone in a prayer thank God that we can meet without fear of being molested) – except that – as Christianity became accepted and embraced, it became diluted and socialized. While there was no longer a fear of physical danger from the outside world, there was also no longer a distinction between Christianity and the outside world. As the church became more popular in the world, the world became more popular in the church. And that was the beginning of the end.
The apostle John's words were more confrontational in the 4th century than they had ever been in the 1st – 1 John 2:15-17 "Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever."
It is an inevitable consequence – as we have less to fear in the world, as the world becomes, not only more palatable, but more desirable – we look for ways to make the distinction less, for ways of making the world look not so worldly, for ways of indulging in the pleasures of the world without being consumed by the world. But therein is the rub – the world by its very nature and definition is opposed to God. Remember James 4:4 "Don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God."
Let's not kid ourselves – this world is a pretty nice place most of the time. If you live in middle class America – with a regular paycheck, a house over your head, two cars in the garage and enough spending money to buy what you want, not just what you need. The world caters to us. It sends us platinum credit card applications and says, "You can buy happiness." It tells us we can own a Lexus or a Mercedes or an Escalade, or even a new Ford pickup truck, for only a few dollars a month. We buy into the notion that the world will think highly of us if we wear the right names on our clothes and that "Tommy" or "Abercrombie" or "Izod" is a sign that we know how to fit in. And if we can't have it now, we know our turn is just around the corner.
Materialism is the idea that we can buy our way to happiness and that more things, and the more expensive things are sure signs of success… in the eyes of the world. Wasn't it Jesus who said, "a man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions" ? Wasn't it Jesus who said, "seek first his kingdom and his righteousness and all these things shall be yours as well" ?
We're chasing after lies if we keep trying to gauge our success by the world's standards. And if we are trying to fit into the world by looking like the world and sounding like the world and acting like the world and then coming to worship on the Lord's day and singing "O to be like thee blessed Redeemer," just who are we kidding?
Paul says, "Do not conform any longer to the pattern of the world." Notice he says "any longer." They had the same problem we have. And Paul says even if you have been conforming, even if you have the world stamped all over you, you can change – you can choose not to be molded by the world. How?
Here's the counterculture. Here's the antidote to the poison: "But be transformed by the renewing of your mind."
Transformed – I love this word in scripture – in the original language of the NT it is the Gk word "metamorphoo" – it is the word that is used to describe the change that takes place when a caterpillar becomes a butterfly, when carbon becomes diamond.
• This is really what is at the heart of it all. Lots of other religions talk about becoming a better person, refining your character, becoming all you can be, rising to higher levels of consciousness. But only Jesus says, "you must be born again." Only Paul tells us "And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with every-increasing glory…" Only God could promise, "if anyone is in Christ he is a new creation."
• Transformation is the process by which God through his HS remakes us from the inside out.
Renewing of your mind – this transformation begins with a change of thinking and attitudes.
• We can change a lot of behavior, but if we don't change our thinking we will always be engaged in a battle we cannot win. If our heart is in love with the world, our motives will always be tainted, our real desires will be somewhere else.
• When our mind is renewed by God, he works deep down inside, not just where our "ought to" is, but where our "want to" is.
• What does the renewed mind look like?
Phil. 2:3-8 Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves. Each of you should look not only to your own interests, but also to the interests of others. Your attitude should be the same as that of Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death – even death on a cross!
• Phil. 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
• Selfishness is replaced by service, materialism by sacrifice, pride by humility, malice and bitterness by compassion and forgiveness.
• Paul said it best back in Rom. 8:6 The mind of sinful man is death, but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace.
The result of the transformation and renewal? Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is...
• Testing and approving God's will? He's not putting us in the position of evaluating and giving approval – what he is saying is that when God is renewing our minds we will be able to recognize and understand God's will in a way that is not possible when our lives are wrapped up in and conformed to this world.
• In fact, Paul had challenged them back in Rom. 2:17-18 "Now you, if you call yourself a Jew; if you rely on the law and brag about your relationship to God; if you know his will and approve of what is superior..." They claimed to know God's will – to be teachers of it – but the fact is they were ignorant of God's will – because their minds had not been transformed – they still thought the same old way.
What is God's will for your life? It would be nice to be able to go to the Bible, look in the concordance and find a category, "God's Will for John." It's not quite that cut and dried. There are some general admonitions where the NT says, "God's will is…" for your sexual purity and holiness, for you to persevere under suffering, for you to give yourself first and fully to the Lord. But when you start asking questions like "what is God's will for my job, or where I should live, or whom I should marry…" the answers aren't very specific.
• But I thought it was fascinating that, as I did a study of the specific phrase, that in the vast majority of cases, when Paul or Peter or John used that phrase, it was always in contrast to what would be consistent with the world. If it is in and of the world, if the world would accept it and embrace it, you can be sure that it is not God's will. God's will is always for us to be separate and distinct from the world.
And when Paul writes to the Corinthian church, he does tell us that we are not without divine help: The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the man's spirit within him? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us. This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words. The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. The spiritual man makes judgments about all things, but he himself is not subject to any man's judgment: "For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him?" But we have the mind of Christ (1 Cor. 2:10-16).
If you are a Christian and you have the Spirit of God living in you – I'm not saying God is going to reveal his will on specifics – but the decisions you make will be molded by a godly and super-natural perspective. As you are being transformed more and more into the image of Christ, you're going to naturally think from the perspective of the mind of Christ – what would Christ do?; how can I best glorify God?; will this make me more or less effective as I serve the Lord?
Paul helps us a little bit by adding three descriptive words – "…his good, pleasing and perfect will."
• "Good" – not a nodding brush with mediocrity – i.e. "good, better, best." The word is the word that is often used to describe excellence, high moral character – it is the word Jesus uses when he says, "only God is good." (which implicitly means the very best)
• "Pleasing" – pleasing, not to us, but pleasing and acceptable to God. It meets his standards, his expectations - he is the architect and he is the one who says, "it is good."
• "Perfect" – no word is more descriptive of God's will that the word "perfect." His will is complete, all inclusive, it will encompass and accomplish all that God desires to be done. There is nothing that will happen that God will slap his head and say, "I hadn't thought about that!" If he knows the number of hairs on your head, he knows every one of your needs perfectly.
• His will is good, pleasing and perfect.
Do those words describe your pursuit of God's will for your life? Our lives need, not just an end which bring them to a conclusion, but a goal towards which we live. God's will is that goal – to be perfectly, completely in his will is our highest calling.
If the gospel really is good news, then whatever God calls us to out of this world and away from conformity is better and more fulfilling than anything his world can offer. Does the world have a grip on you, has it squeezed you into its mold? Break out, step away, let God be life for you.
God doesn't want simply to do a home makeover on you, he wants to begin with your heart and make you a new creation.

This past Saint-Jean the boys, my parents and I went to Exporail. Unfortunately Donna had to work.
The boys really love going. ET loves the train rides as this is the only place he has ever been on one or any kind of public transportation for that matter. I assume if we took really public transport he'd be really board.
Carts was hysterical for the model trains and was so excited seeing them moving around and going to tunnels and over the bridges.
But they both really enjoyed getting on go on the trains. The Museum has a large collection of trains (indoors so no worries about bad weather like in the old days) and a few you can get on and walk through.
The boys didn't get to have a nap so ET was a little hyper and selective in his hearing. We were waiting for the trolley to arrive at one of the stations when he runs across the tracks. Needless to say I was freaked out and terrified. Of course he thought it was really funny. Ah kids. Another story to tell him when he's older.
I highly recommend it for families with small kids, since what kids don't love trains.

Mmmmm….don't let the name deceive you, this is delicious! I think it's just called a dump cake because you literally just dump all the ingredients in your dish, bake it, and it's done!
Points+ Value: 6
- 4 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen…and feel free to mix the fruit up, cherries sound yummy!)
- 1/2 sugar
- 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
- 1/2 c. butter
- 1 package yellow cake mix (or lemon is tasty as well)
- Pour sugar and cinnamon in the bottom of your baking dish (I used a 9 x 13 glass dish), mix them around.
- Pour blueberries on top, spread them around.
- Dump cake mix on top, spread around so it's evenish.
- Here's where you can mix it up if you really wanna get crafty, I've done both. You can either melt your butter and pour it over the top or, this I tried for the first time tonight…you can slice your butter thinly and arrange it evenly over the top. I'll let you know how mine turns out…it's in the oven right now.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.
*I did like slicing the butter thinly, but really, I don't think I could mess this up if I tried. Both ways are fabulous.
**Also, just FYI, my mom's often made this without the butter, just sprinkling lemon juice on top of the cake mix and it's also fabulous that way – and quite a bit more Points+ friendly.
Alright, I'm off to North Carolina. Be jealous. 🙂

A COUPLE IN a US airport were so desperate to make their flight that they resorted to somewhat desperate measures to get the plane to wait for them.
The couple missed the boarding time and, in their frustration, banged on the windows in the hopes of getting the pilot's attention and making the flight.
All the while they were being filmed by another bemused passenger as other equally confused travellers looked on.
Needless to say… The stunt didn't work.Source: SAM Mahmud/YouTube

Jan 12: Predicted Trends for 2020 – Trends I'm Avoiding
Every year, there are some trends that look like they will stay around the whole year. Here are three trends that I, personally, will be avoiding for the start of the new decade! Bermuda shorts: I'm on the petite size. And cutting off my leg line by having shorts that end at my knee is,… Read more
Jan 1, 2020: Announcement – New Year, New Organization
If you take a dive into the blog posts menu for Zeebstyle, you'll notice that it has been reorganized (and a long time coming in my opinion)! It took me longer than I expected with school, applications, and the holidays – but it is here to start off 2020! Don't get me wrong, I liked… Read more

Make-up: A Strong Lip
You may have noticed that my make-up in most of my photos is fairly neutral. Today, I wanted to show off a strong lip for you guys! When doing a strong lip color, I like to keep my eyes understated. The point of make-up is to enhance your features. A strong lipstick highlights the beauty… Read more
Sept. 29: Haul and OOTD
This past Friday, I went to the mall with some friends and picked up some new pieces I wanted to share with you! And, I wore them all today (because who can stay away from wearing their new stuff right away?) featured as my outfit of the day! What you CAN see in the photo… Read more
Sept. 22: Re-purposing Project Completed!
I am super stoked to say that I finished my project of re-purposing my statement necklace. Twice it had snapped in the middle, but I loved it so much I couldn't let it go completely! So… I took apart the necklace until I had just the beads. Then, I used chains I already had to… Read more
Sept. 8 Part 2: Fit and Re-purposing
One of my "absolutes" in my style is that if it doesn't fit, it either needs to go or has to change. Sometimes we love pieces and don't want to get rid of them or we desperately want to try and make them fit. I understand – I've been guilty of that, myself. However, the… Read more
Sept. 8 Part 1: My Style Adjectives
I had the opportunity to help raid a friend's closet and help them brainstorm outfit ideas. It was a blast, and it also got me thinking about how I put my outfits together. I mentioned in a past post that a dynamic outfit often pairs pieces that captures multiple aspects of my personality. Below is… Read more
Aug. 30: "Basics" You Don't Need – Blue Jeans
Yep. I said it. Blue jeans are NOT an essential piece of clothing to have in your regular wardrobe. By regular wardrobe, I mean day-to-day wear. I have blue jeans for doing outdoor work, camping, etc. However, I don't wear blue jeans day to day. I avoid blue jeans for a couple of reasons. If… Read more
Aug. 18: Body Insecurity and Weight Gain, Meet Style.
Body insecurity is something, like many other people, I have struggled with in varying amounts over the course of my life. (Yep, we're gettin' real today, folks.)

Fashion Friday, Aug. 16: A "Basic" You Don't Need – The Button Down Shirt
I don't know who started the idea that a white button down shirt is a closet essential, but I'm here to tell you that under no circumstances is is necessary in a wardrobe. When I started to get more into clothes, I watched "closet essential" videos on YouTube to learn what basic are important and… Read more
Selfie Sunday, Aug. 11: OOTD – Mixing Metallics
Hello hello! Today is another outfit of the day. The theme: don't be afraid to mix metallics! Remember: all metallics are neutrals, so you can mix them however you want! I love pairing my gold clutch/wristlet with my bronze colored flats. I added a rose gold watch with a gold bangle, and metallic earrings to… Read more
Aug. 4: New Booties!
Say hello to the new booties in my closet! With a 2.5 inch block heel and made by Dr. Scholl's, these booties are stylish and comfortable! I ordered mine in a size 7. I always size a half size down when ordering heels, as I like a slightly tighter fit. I'm sure it would have… Read more
Jul 28: Clothes Reflect You
Clothes reflect who you are – for better or for worse. While some people think this is unfair (and sometimes it can be), it's often proven to be true. Wearing a suit can give an air of professionalism, refinement, or even sloppy. It depends on how you wear it. A pink suit can say femininity… Read more
Jul 21: Bra Power
Alright, ladies! Today we're discussing a tool close to our hearts – literally! Bras are a powerful wardrobe tool. I should start by saying bras are not a requirement. If you really don't want to wear a bra, then don't! Feeling comfortable in your own skin is more important. That being said, bras do serve… Read more
Jul 12: Patterns
Hello again! Last Friday I discussed the ways you can use color in an outfit. Continuing the "What Not to Wear" theme, next I'm going to cover patterns and ways to mix them for maximum outfit interest. Patterns will naturally draw the eye to them. When it comes to outfits, it is best to put… Read more

Inmates at the Besson Street Police Station today threatened to throw faeces at an officer who they say is treating them unfairly.
Initial reports suggested that an officer was being held hostage at the station.
However, CNC3 News was told that around midday an officer was attempting to check on an inmate in one of three holding cells when inmates in another holding cell hurled insults at him.
The inmates accused the officer of unfair treatment while threatening to hurl faeces at him if he passed in front of their cell.
The guard and emergency branch was called in and the situation was quelled.

VTS improvisers will use the suggestions to create their comedic versions of scenes and characters from these much-beloved holiday specials.
The second half of the show is a completely improvised, original holiday special featuring all the tropes you'd expect to see. This comedy confection will leave you laughing like a bowl full of jelly, as our improvisers re-create well-known festive scenes and characters. Get on Santa's good list and see it twice, as with any VTS show, no two shows are ever the same. We all know there's a happy ending, how we get there is where all the turkey-full of belly laughs are to be found.

Before & After
For clients throughout Chicagoland, North Shore Vascular treats a variety of medical conditions involving veins and arteries, including spider veins and varicose veins. We take a conservative approach to treatment, giving you the least-invasive procedure possible to solve the problem, and aiming to get it right from the start. If you're looking to remove the pain and unsightliness of inflamed varicose veins, come to us. To get a clear sense of the difference our treatments can make, browse the varicose vein before-and-after photos on this page. A picture is worth a thousand words, and the results speak for themselves.
Our ProceduresAt North Shore Vascular, a number of different vein treatments are used to treat varicose and spider veins. These treatments include:
- EVLT & RF:. The most popular varicose vein treatments today are endovenous laser therapy (EVLT) and radiofrequency ablation therapy (RF). Minimally invasive but highly effective treatments, EVLT and RF seal the affected vein, preventing blood from pooling in the area.
- Microphlebectomy: Microphlebectomy is another minimally invasive treatment in which Dr. Golan makes a tiny incision in the skin, removing the varicose vein.
- Sclerotherapy: Spider veins and small varicose veins are treated with sclerotherapy. At North Shore Vascular, only FDA-approved, brand-name sclerotherapy solutions are used. The practitioner injects the solution into the spider vein. Because patients typically experience very little, if any, discomfort, anesthesia is not required. The solution causes the vein to swell and close. Best results are observed after 3 or 4 months.
