As you visualize your perfect wedding, you are also gazing at your glorious guests all decked out in classy or comfy clothes that exactly match the occasion. Now come back to reality so that you can gently and properly convey the dress code to them.
First of all, there are a few things that you cannot request of your guests without falling into the Bridezilla category. You should not request that your guests dress in colors or tones that will match your selected color scheme. Not everyone will look good wearing teal/lime green/russet or happen to have it hanging in their closet. It will also make it difficult to determine who is in your wedding party if you've decided that all your bridesmaids will be wearing your color of choice.
Secondly, while you can have a themed wedding (pirates, 1920's, Halloween, whatever…) you can't actually demand that they show up in a get-up. Some may be willing and able to play along, but others will have their own reasons for not arriving in costume.
Your goal, as the gracious hostess of this best-party-ever is to ensure that your guests are comfortable. That means appropriately attired for the time of day and the type of event.
If your wedding is a high-noon formal affair at a house of worship with a dinner reception to follow, your dress code will be completely different from the afternoon tea for more than two in the park. And letting them know the dress code is relatively simple, it goes on the invitation.
There are truly only three categories of dress for events: Formal, Semi-Formal, and Casual. Then each category is broken down into Daytime and Evening. According to the Emily Post Institute this is the simple break out:
Women: Cocktail or dressy afternoon dress.
Men: Dark suit; conservative shirt and tie.
Women: Depending on local customs, long evening dress or dressy cocktail dress; gloves optional.
Men: Tuxedo (required if invitation states "Black tie") or dark suit.
Women: Dressy afternoon dress, suit, or pantsuit.
Men: Dark suit or blazer and grey flannels, tie.
Women: Cocktail dress, dressy pantsuit.
Men: Dark suit and tie
Women: Afternoon dress; dressy skirt or pants and blouse.
Men: Sports jacket or blazer with slacks, tie optional.
Women: Afternoon or cocktail dress.
Men: Blazer, grey flannel or slacks, tie optional.
Your guests will get a hint of how to dress for your bash from the style of your wedding invitation, the time of day, and the venue. Plus in the lower right hand corner of your invitation you will provide a subtle direction: Formal, Semi-formal, or Casual. The formality of the invitation will reflect the type of event you are hosting so be consistent.
You don't send out an email invitation to your beach barbecue and then tell people it is a formal occasion. And as a guest you don't show up in your cargo shorts to the cathedral when you have received an engraved invitation requesting the honor or your presence.
There are no-no's that will happen, but you can certainly hope that your guests are smarter than that. For instance the only one allowed to wear a white dress is the BRIDE. And wedding guests should not confuse a cocktail dress (which is considered tasteful) with a club dress that contains not much more than your essentials. Also, a smart guest will know that a strapless dress needs to be covered in church, and all dresses should allow you to sit and stand without risk of overexposure.
Good guests will keep the focus on the newlyweds by dressing with style and class. Good brides will be clear about wedding details. And all will live happily ever after.

About 8% of patients who had been taking statins for at least two months to control cholesterol before hospitalization with a solid-tumor later suffered venous thromboembolism, compared with 21% of those with short-term or no previous statin treatment (OR 0.33, 95% CI 0.19 to 0.59), reported Danai Khemasuwan, M.D., of Albert Einstein Medical Center here.
The findings reflected adjustments for smoking status, metastatic disease, current use of chemotherapy, aspirin, and immobilization, he said at the American College of Chest Physicians meeting.
Dr. Khemasuwan said the mechanism underlying the apparent effect remained unclear.
"It could be either the lipid-lowering effect … or it could be anti-inflammatory or anti-thrombolytic," he said, calling for a prospective, randomized trial to confirm the finding.
His study involved a review of 740 consecutive patients with a variety of solid tumors, prompted by suggestions in earlier studies that statins may reduce the DVT risk in other patient groups.
Most patients in the study had lung, breast, or prostate cancer. Other malignancies included tumors of the ovaries, stomach, colon, brain, kidney, esophagus, and pancreas.
Mean patient age was 65 and three-quarters were African-American. Patients were excluded if they had received anticoagulant therapies such as warfarin or heparin prior to admission.
About 31% of the sample had dyslipidemia at admission, and 26% were on statins.
He noted previous research indicating that statins decrease serum markers of inflammation, which in turn alters blood coagulation thresholds.
Patients in the study received simvastatin (Zocor), atorvastatin (Lipitor), or rosuvastatin (Crestor). The study did not attempt to determine whether one agent was more or less effective than the others in reducing venous thromboembolism risk, nor did it examine dosing.
A limitation of the study was that it did not measure serum lipids in patients. Differences between the statin-treated and control groups in lipid levels were a potential confounding factor.
Despite these limitations, David Gutterman, M.D., of the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, said the findings were important.
"It's very logical," said Dr. Gutterman, who was not involved with the research. "I think it makes a lot of sense, particularly with regard to the pleiotropic effects of statins."
He said those effects "may not have so much to do with cholesterol, but may still have to do with inhibition of the HMG-co-reductase pathway," the main target of the statin class.
He noted that statins are well known to improve arterial endothelial function, which would be expected to have a favorable impact on thrombosis risk.
"The interesting thing about this study is that it suggests maybe the same kind of improvement is occurring on the venous side of the circulation," Dr. Gutterman said.
|The study had no external funding. Dr. Khemasuwan and Dr. Gutterman reported no potential conflicts of interest.

Spectacle Actions Continue in Washington, DC to Expose Secret Trade Agreement
WASHINGTON - A fourth day of action will take place today as energy builds to expose the secretive Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and pressure Congress to vote "no" on granting Fast Track (Trade Promotion Authority) to the President. Fast Track would allow the President to negotiate and sign the TPP without Congressional hearings or amendments on the full content of the text and without full consideration of the impact the TPP will have on laws that protect consumers, workers and the environment.
Activists are also demanding that the text of the TPP be released to Congress, the media and the public. It is unprecedented that the text of a trade agreement is classified as secret and kept from the public. The TPP is the largest agreement since the World Trade Organization was created in the mid-1990s, and it has the potential, because of its docking agreement that allows more countries to join it, to grow larger. Leaked portions of the text raise concerns that the TPP is a rigged corporate trade deal that will undermine national sovereignty and place the public's safety at risk.
As part of the Stop Fast Track Action Camp put together by the Flush the TPP campaign, actions started on Friday with a lively rally outside of the office of the US Trade Representative. On Sunday evening, the spectacle actions began when a light projection team shined messages on a government building saying "TPP Dismantles Democracy," "Toxic for People and the Planet," among others.
Today, a lively, spectacle march will connect the institutions responsible for promoting trans-national corporate profits at the expense of real human suffering and death and destruction of the planet. Activists, with help from the Backbone Campaign, constructed a 32 foot "TPP Express" to illustrate the dangerous consequences of the TPP if it is passed in secrecy and without fully examining its impact on laws from the local to the national levels.
The "Don't Fast Track a Train Wreck" march will begin at Lafayette Park in front if the White House and end at the Capitol, among the stops along the route will be the US Chamber of Commerce and the US Trade Representative. A rally will be held at 11 am before departing in Lafayette Park.
Activists will continue to pressure Congress and promise to escalate nonviolent direct action tactics as necessary to stop rigged corporate trade from continuing and succeed in gaining fair trade that puts the needs of people and the planet first.

White People are the Best People
The usual conflation and confusion of the terms America with White, along with the claim that there is a Darwinian race for survival between different ethnic groups despite the lack of any evidence for this.
The author never explains why the decline of White culture is a problem other than to pretend that the world would be worse off without Whites.
This writer resents anyone not White and assumes they will all treat Whites as badly as Whites have always treated them - a claim made without any evidence.
He chooses not to see his White supremacy as a form of the very Positive Discrimination he rails against; merely seeing it as natural and normal and the way things are.
If not natural, then his version of what is natural should be enforced in his implication that it is best to:
- Keep White women at home as brood mares to keep Whites numerically superior;
- only allowing Whites to migrate to the US;
- abolishing divorce;
- anti-miscegenation laws; &
- criminalizing any sexual congress between members of different ethnic groups.
Like all those without a valid cultural identity, he desperately needs to believe that White culture is somehow universal; while refraining from learning the obvious lesson of his own claims of White decline: White inferiority. He is happy to see Whites always numerically-dominant, but hates to see anyone else dominate because of theirs. A man with no moral compass who refuses to encourage Whites to work harder to compensate for their failings but, instead, to penalize non-Whites for their successes - which he clearly believes are unearned and only come about because of Affirmative Action - again, without any supporting evidence.
Like all racists, his only recourse is to whine, since he has no solution to Whites' increasing global irrelevance.

The story: Lovers for centuries, cultured vampires Adam (Hiddleston) and Eve (Swinton) try to survive in modern Detroit when the human blood supply has been contaminated.
The buzz: Sure, it's about vampires. But this isn't "Twilight." Or even "Let the Right One In." It's from Jarmusch, the art-house auteur behind "Broken Flowers" and "Coffee and Cigarettes." In other words, yes, it will be better than "Twilight."

Why dabble in adultery?
Adultery is often a drug to cover anger or emptiness, to escape the challenges of home life—pleasure without the accompanying worries, and sexual fulfilment, like alcohol, usually provides some relief and pleasure.
But Proverbs (5:3–4) suggests what is sweet to the taste can become sour in the stomach. Nathan predicted David's moments of pleasure would lead to a lifetime of distress, for himself and his family (2 Samuel 12:9–10).
It may not be possible to follow a lifetime of the causes and effects of adultery. But it's easy to forecast hostility resulting from infidelity: anger, loss of trust, and the pain of betrayal.
Further, a variety of attitudes by an adulterous husband—or wife in today's free and equal culture—from outright denial or excuses to utter remorse and self-reproach can only add to the conflict, and the affair might still drag on after discovery.
Even if it doesn't, a wife's loss can trigger a prolonged period of mourning countered by the impatience of the husband. Without reconciliation, the marriage may break up, or continue an uneasy co-existence, the wife using guilt to hold the husband hostage.
Infidelity creates a near death experience for a marriage, yet many marriages survive and become meaningful for both partners again. Most of David's life is a remarkable record of his source of survival; he never lost his confidence in God in the midst of adversity
David's psalms are the legacy of his victories for us in times of difficulty. David found pardon in the grace of God's forgiveness and protection, although still facing the consequences of his sin. David's example can bring both comfort and strength to continue through adversity.
David's brief fling resulted in a lifetime of family conflict. Too often, the continuing depth of pain and misery of a broken marriage causes us to retreat from God. But as David found, God is our ultimate source of strength when we need Him the most.

Five Types Of Brazilian Student You Might Find In Your English Class
This week I launched my new ebook, The Top 85 Mistakes Brazilians Make In English. So during my time in São Paulo, I've taught the English language to a lot of students and I soon realised that the same mistakes were being made by them over and over again. That's when I hit upon the idea of compiling a list of the most frequent mistakes made in my classes, which is where the idea for the book came from.
However, whilst writing a thought occurred to me. Many of my students don't just share some of the same linguistic errors, but there are also number who will repeat the same phrases or behaviours in response to having English classes too. So allow me to go all Buzz-Feeds and give you a run down on just five of these types of students below!
Do you recognise any of these students in yourselves/ your classes?
Disclaimer: I should point out that this post should not be taken too seriously!
1. The Suspicious Student
"Are you SURE people say the phrase like this in English, Andrew? Really? It just sounds so….strange!"
At this point you might want to remind your Suspicious Student that, yes, this sentence structure might sound strange to them….but to you, a native English speaker, it is the most natural thing in the world! And then you can guarantee the following words will come rolling off their tongues, words an English teacher can expect to hear on a daily basis.
"But in Portuguese we say it like this!"
This is the point that I'd advise an English teacher to smile sweetly, develop instant amnesia and resist saying "it doesn't matter how the sentence is said in Portuguese, it is still said differently in English!!!"
The Emotional Student
They've had an awful day at work. Sandra from HR has been an absolute bitch to them and on top of it all, their husband is away on business and there isn't going to be ANY dinner ready when they get home. Who better to turn to at the end of their crappy day and tell all of this to than….their English teacher!
I absolutely LOVE these students! As soon as their problems come cascading out of their mouths you can put that that boring grammar exercise back inside your folder. Instead, you're going to spend some of your class consoling your student and/or giving them advice.
Yes, as an English teacher in Brazil you may find yourself unexpectedly taking on the role of psychologist!
I've been asked for advice on a variety of things, ranging from relationships (this student clearly didn't realise that when it comes to being in a relationship, I am the Susan Boyle of the English teaching world!), where to invest in a holiday home (I have never owned a house in my life!) and even on raising children (like…seriously!).
The Student Who BADLY Wanted An American Teacher
"And how do they say this in American English?"
Sometimes being a native speaker isn't enough for some students, especially students like Thiago from Accounts (obviously I've made him up as an example!) who regularly talks to someone in the New York office. Naturally, he wants to know what random words and pronunciations are in American English and he delights in pointing this out to you. You, the British teacher, with your strange accent and overly formal expressions! I've been told this type of student studies in some of my American friend's classes too, asking, "but how do you say this in British English?"
Sometimes I just don't know how they say certain expressions in the offices in New York, and admitting this is sometimes met with a knowing look from students like Thiago…who you know is thinking, 'I just want you to know, I wanted an American teacher but we couldn't find one! If I'd really wanted your quaint version of the English language, I'd have just downloaded a Harry Potter MOVIE!'
The Gossipy Student
"Andrew, you were out in Cine Joia last Saturday night, weren't you? Yes…my friend Michelle saw you there!" (Judging look)
As soon as you hear these words, your blood begins to run cold and you turn a light shade of pink. Not only do you have no idea who Michelle is, or why she would have recognised you in the club; but last Saturday night was one of those nights you would rather forget. The night you overindulged in the beer and partied like Ke$ha (post-teeth brushing with Jack Daniels). The night you thought you could forget all about; but clearly not. Why? Because Michelle was out too!
The worst thing is, you KNOW that if Michelle has already told your student what she saw, the chances are the student has already told the rest of your class EXACTLY what you were doing too.
With this in mind, you start to wonder if you're going to be teaching this class much longer!
The Student Who Tries To Communicate With Telepathy
"I went to restaurant at the weekend and it was really…ah, wait! What's the word?"
When your student stops speaking to look hypnotically into your eyes, you might feel that they're trying to extract this word from somewhere deep within you.
"Well did you enjoy it?" you ask hopefully.
"So how about the word 'enjoyable?"
"No, it's not that! I need a word to describe the restaurant"
"And what type of restaurant did you go to?"
"An Italian"
"So how about 'traditional?'"
Before you know it, your class has turned into a game of charades.
"The word begins with the letter 'a'"
Usually, around this point your student will give up, sigh and say (pretty unconvincingly). "It doesn't matter teacher. I'll just look it up when I get home!"
Of course, 9 times out of 10 your student won't be doing this, so you'll never know exactly how they felt about that little Italian restaurant. But then later, long after you've finished your class, you worry that a thought will corkscrew itself into their minds, "why didn't teacher know the word I was looking for? I gave him enough clues. As a native English speaker, surely he should have known!"
Do you recognise yourself in any of the students I described in this post? Are you a teacher here who has taught any students like these!?! Let me know!
The Top 85 Mistakes Brazilians Make In English
My new ebook is out NOW. This book has been specifically written for Brazilian students of English.
As well as containing tips and explanations on how to avoid making common mistakes, it also dares to go where the more traditional books don't. As a result you can expect to read about things Brazilians say that are likely to make a native English speaker laugh; those common mistakes that are either going to sound sexual, could embarrass the person you're talking to or are likely to just sound very, very funny!
If your English is of an upper intermediate/advanced level and you are interested in knowing the mistakes your English teacher hears on a daily basis (or those embarrassing mistakes you definitely don't want to be making in meetings with your international colleagues!) The Top 85 Mistakes Brazilians Make in English is the book for you!

To Water or Not
Last years drought left many home lawns in dire shape. The number one question I'm getting right now is, "Should I water my lawn, and if so how much?" says Susan Grupp a horticulture educator with University of Illinois Extension, DuPage County. And that is a very good question. When the hot, dry weather arrives, each homeowner will need to decide if they want a green lawn, or if they are willing to let it go dormant.
If you prefer a green lawn, then you will need to make sure the lawn receives at least 1 to 1 ½ inches of water every 5-7 days. This means you will need to monitor the rainfall and provide supplemental water during dry weather.
For those people who don't want to irrigate their lawns, they may choose to allow their lawn to go dormant. Keep in mind this means the lawn appears brown during hot, dry spells. Then in late summer or early fall, the lawn should recover and "green up" when temperatures drop and growing conditions improve.
But do not just forget about the lawn completely. If we have very hot dry weather again, be sure to apply 1/4-1/2 inch of water every 2-3 weeks. It is very important to do this, because the crowns and roots of lawn grasses should never be allowed to dry out. This little bit of water can make all the difference. In our county, many home lawns died in large patches because of our extremely hot, droughty weather last year and people did not understand they needed to supply this small amount of water.
Also, once you decide which watering method you'll use, do not change your mind. For example, allowing the lawn to go dormant, and then watering to green it up, and then allowing to it go dormant again is very stressful to the lawn and can trigger additional problems.
Here are some watering tips if you want a green and growing lawn this summer:
- Choose a sprinkler that distributes the water in an even pattern and provides a uniform amount to the whole lawn.
- You will know it's time to water your lawn if you can see your footprints. A well-watered lawn will spring back.
- Sunny lawns, south or west facing slopes and highly fertilized lawns will need more water.
- If you planted your lawn this spring, it is more vulnerable since the root system is not fully established and you may need to water more frequently.
Other things you can do to conserve water needs:
- Raise your mowing height.
- Do not apply quick release water-soluble nitrogen during hot dry weather.
- Keep your thatch level at ½ inch or less.
- Core-aerate in spring or fall to help improve soil compaction and root growth.
- Grow drought-tolerant grasses.

Photo of me and Ernie Wilkins at the Windows Recording Session. Should be out soon on the MelBay web site called New York Scene
Windows Recording Session
For this discussion I'd like to take you back in time to 1972! (A long time ago). It was my first recording under my own name for the Mainstream label. I had just finished a session with saxophone great Paul Jeffrey- his album "Watershed" was from 1971.My record "Windows" was released in '73. It featured Michael Moore on bass, and Bill Goodwin on drums. The guitar I was using at the time was an old Gibson L7 from I think 1951. It was in bad shape with all kinds of scratches and nicks. A pickup was drilled into the body so it wasn't worth anything to the vintage collectors. It had a very long and worthy past and was one of the best sounding instruments I ever played.
Mainstream records produced most of their recordings at the old Mercury studios on West 57th street. It was a rather large room and with just a trio in session, I felt at first that it would be much too echoing. The amp I was using was an old Ampeg GT10. Very big and booming. A forerunner to the Roland Jazz Chorus with two 12-inch speakers. My concern was for real. The first take we did sounded awful! Very washed out because of the echo. Since producer Bob Shad was not at the session because of some family problem, it was up to me to find a way to make this work. It was in fact the only recording I ever performed without a producer. (Except for Jazz Guitar Christmas). I was lucky enough to have Ernie Wilkins (no relation) on the recording console. He was very agreeable to any suggestions on how we could make a go of this. I thought we should play as soft as possible without sacrificing the playing. I turned that amp down to about a 2. (Not eleven!) I had Ernie raise the volume in our headphones and we nailed it. We finished the whole session in 6 hours. An hour a tune. After a little layering, we had an unmixed recording.
The mixing part was the most fun I can remember in a studio. Still minus Bob Shad, I had all the time I needed to experiment with sounds and dynamics. When a phrase I played was a little bit lost in the low register, I simply raised it up in the mix! How simple is that? I added some snazzy EQ on the solo of "Red Clay". It was a very satisfying experience for us all. We managed to take a possible disaster and turn into a winner. I still say that session is one of the best recorded of all my solo and sideman sessions.

6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel-- 7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, let him be eternally condemned! 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let him be eternally condemned!
A friend and I were passionately discussing the Sabbath so he decided to give me Lesson 6 of the Amazing Facts series to study. I did and l read some amazing facts that I'd like to share with you. I am more and more convinced that everything happens for a reason because it dawned on me that this would be great to use as an illustration of the deception being taught by the Adventist church.
Let's look at what is being taught regarding The Law in the Amazing Facts series, Lesson 6, entitled, Written In Stone. Click here if you care to print Lesson 6 or follow along with me.
Amazing Facts: The Ten Commandment law is the guide we must use in finding our way to God and holy living. If I ignore even one of the commandments, I am neglecting part of the divine pattern, or blueprint. If only one link of a chain is broken, its entire purpose is undone. The Bible says that when we knowingly break any command of God, we are sinning (James 4:17) because we have refused His will for us. Only those who do His will can enter the kingdom of heaven.
Rebuttal: The above comment is setting the people up for Sabbath-keeping. If they neglect the keeping of the Sabbath, they have broken a link of the chain and thwarted its purpose. We are not under the law as stated numerous times in Scripture.
Christ kept the law for each of us and bore our sins on the cross. We are saved by grace through faith. If accepted, the Holy Spirit leads us, guides us, teaches us truth and empowers us. Believers live by the Spirit.
The Bible Says in Romans 8:14 "14 because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God."
Again, the Ten Commandments and Sabbath keeping are not the standard.
The Bible Says in Ephesians 2:8-9, "8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-- 9 not by works, so that no one can boast."
The Bible Says in Luke 2:22-24 and Luke 2:30....

Game of musical chairs follows Pennsylvania's special election
By Reuters Politics News
Published : March 14, 2018 Updated : March 15, 2018
(This version of the March 14 story corrects paragraph 16 to say that Lamb personally opposes abortion but accepts 1973 Roe vs. Wade decision, instead of that he opposes abortion rights)
By David Morgan and Jason Lange
(Reuters) - The special election in Pennsylvania's 18th Congressional District was still too close to call on Wednesday but the winner could soon have to start campaigning all over again - in a different district against a different opponent for the November congressional elections.
That is because the 18th District, as currently drawn in southwestern Pennsylvania, will cease to exist because of a recent court order that set new boundaries for every district in the state.
Democrat Conor Lamb, who was slightly ahead in the race for the seat in the U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday, likely will start campaigning in the new 17th District. Republican Rick Saccone, should he still have a political future after failing to handily win a district Donald Trump carried by 20 points in 2016, might try for the seat in the newly drawn 14th District.
The political game of musical chairs could once again make western Pennsylvania hard-fought ground. Districts that were once considered solidly Republican and that voted for Trump in the 2016 presidential election now look winnable by Democrats.
Pennsylvania's top court ruled in January that the state had been unfairly gerrymandered by Republican legislators, with districts shaped in order to include voters apt to favor their party. Pennsylvania Republicans, including eight U.S. congressmen, have filed a federal lawsuit challenging the new map.
"It's a much more competitive map," said Eric McGhee, a political scientist at the Public Policy Institute of California who helped craft an analysis of the new districts by PlanScore.org.
Saccone, a conservative four-term state representative from Elizabeth Township, lives in the newly drawn 18th District that will skew Democrat because it includes the strongly Democratic city of Pittsburgh.
But Saccone has already said he intends to run in the new 14th District, which will include much of the current 18th and strongly Republican communities to the west of it.
Political analysts label the new 14th District safely Republican. It has a higher share of people who have not studied past high school and its median household income, at about $55,000, is lower than the old 18th District's $65,000, according to PlanScore's analysis. Saccone might want to move to the new district, although Pennsylvania law does not require candidates to run in the districts where they live.
Lamb has not said which seat he would seek in November but was clear during the campaign that he intended to compete.
Political analysts and Pennsylvania Democratic strategists such as Mike Mikus believe the moderate Democrat would be a strong candidate in the new 17th.
Compared with the old 18th, the new 17th District will have a larger share of black residents and will be slightly more educated - segments of the electorate that skew Democratic.
Should Lamb run in the 17th, it could set up an incumbent-versus-incumbent showdown against Keith Rothfus, the Republican now representing the 12th District, a hammer-shaped district stretching from the Ohio border north of Pittsburgh to the Allegheny Mountains. Trump won that district over Democrat Hillary Clinton by 21 points.
Rothfus has said he will run in the new 17th, which takes in the western portion of his current district.
The newly drawn 17th District could be an easier district to win for a Democrat than Pennsylvania's 18th. Trump's vote tally in the new 17th would have barely won him the district. It includes the suburbs southwest, west and north of Pittsburgh where a large numbers of suburban Democrats might find Rothfus too conservative.
The new 17th District does include a swath of Republican strongholds stretching to the Ohio border. But Lamb could make inroads in the blue-collar Trump strongholds of traditionally Democratic Beaver County, where voters could be attracted by his pro-gun, pro-military and pro-union positions. Lamb says he personally opposes abortion but accepts the Supreme Court's landmark 1973 Roe vs. Wade decision allowing abortion as the law of the land.
"I would put Lamb or another Democrat as a favorite over Rothfus," Mikus said. "Rothfus raises a lot of money but he is very conservative and probably too conservative for this district."
Political analysts at the University of Virginia Center for Politics considered the new 17th District as leaning in Rothfus' favor until last week, when they moved it to a toss-up in anticipation of a possible Lamb candidacy.

For the past month, I'm just done with 2016. This has by far been the worst year of my life and I just want it to end. Yes, my miscarriage happened in 2015, and that was the worst thing that's ever happened to me, but the aftermath of that miscarriage took over the majority of 2016. I am so over 2016. Just be done already!!
A few weeks ago I made a giant list of all my goals and resolutions for 2017 because I'm ready for a new year and a fresh start. (Oh my gosh, just be 2017 already!!!!) I will most likely share all those goals when 2017 gets closer and I've weeded through them and have the specific New Years Resolutions to share (I currently have two pages of goals so they can't all be New Year's Resolutions).
But to finish up this year (because I'm so willing to skip to the end, yes, that includes skipping over Christmas, just let 2016 end, please, please please, I am begging) I made a playlist of 10 songs that describe my 2016!
I want this to be an annual thing. For me to make playlists of songs that have influenced and/or describe the way my year went. Therefore, since I'm quoting this as the worst year of my life, you can bet they are not all happy songs for this year.
I have reasons for each song so I want to go over why each one was chosen. These were all chosen very carefully and I want to share my reasoning with you. So just press play on the Spotify playlist below, enjoy some amazing songs and read about each one.
I'll go in order of the playlist, even though it's a weird, not very thought out order. Okay? Great.
Unsteady - X Ambassadors
I'm a huge fan of this song. My mom thinks it's too repetitive, my husband doesn't like his voice, but I'm obsessed. I could not have made it through this year with the amazing people (and pet) I have in my life. But besides Zoram, my biggest rock through this year was Chris. I was "unsteady" in so many ways this year, but Chris helped me stand up tall and make it through. I needed him and I love his support more than he may ever understand. I love my soulmate.
Sit Still, Look Pretty - Daya
This song isn't depressing! Lately, girl-power type songs are my favorite. I have a ton on my phone that I just listen to randomly when I need to be uplifted and find a little confidence. While this is definitely a newer addition to my girl-power list, there's just a few of the lyrics that always stick out to me when I hear this song on the radio.
"Oh, I don't know what you've been told but this gal right here's gonna rule the world"
I don't want to be what people want me to be. I have goals for myself and I'm going to make them happen. I am going to be a book author. Heroes & Villains is going to prove that I'm a writer and I truly believe that it can be big (considering it will never end). I will find the success and happiness I want without working in a job people want or expect me to. I believe that I can rule my own world and I'm not going to let someone tell me how to do it.
Stressed Out - Twenty-One Pilots
Oh goodness, the words in this song speak to me.
"Used to dream of outer space but now they're laughing in our face saying 'Wake up you need to make money.'"
I'm probably contradicting myself, but while I want to be a writer, this year was so overwhelming feeling like I couldn't do it because I needed to work a real job. Being a grown up sucks. And being a child and not having to deal with all the stress just sounds so appealing, but impossible to attain again. I was constantly stressed this year. This song was my life this year... stressed out.
The Weight Of Living II - Bastille
Oh, Bastille. How I love you so very, very, truly, totally, absolutely, wholly, and completely. I have been obsessing over this album this year and listen to it constantly. I love every track on the album and have learned almost all the words. But lately the words to this song have stuck out to me a lot:
"Do you like the person you've become?"
Short and sweet, this question has echoed in my mind for a while now. I have asked myself this question quite a bit lately and when I begin to think my answer is "no" I think of ways to change myself and change my answer. I'm greatly considering making this my theme song of 2017, so I might get back to this at a later date...
All Will Be Well - Gabe Dixon
(Every time I listen to this song I ask Chris "Bonus points if you can name what show this is on!" He always forgets. But they answer is Parks & Recreation when Andy and April are driving to the Grand Canyon. Now you know and can get bonus points.)
I think about the title of this song a lot. "All will be well." The lyrics to this song are absolutely incredible because it's not saying that life if perfect and everything will always be amazing all the time. It's saying that times can be hard, people make mistakes, you have to work to find what you want in life, and you don't know how you'll get there, but you have to just believe that over time things will turn out for the best.
I have an obsession with this song and could probably pull out my English major skills and write a whole essay on it. I think anyone who is like me and suffers from depression should listen to this song and really think through the words. All will be well.
Don't Panic - Coldplay
Similar to "All will be well" the phrase "We live in a beautiful world" has crossed my mind a lot throughout this year. Despite how much I just raved about Bastille, Coldplay is, in all reality, my favorite band. They have music and lyrics that speak to me in a way no other artist has been able to do.
This song is short and sweet and every time I'm outside, looking at the world I live in, I think the worlds "We live in a beautiful world." It's comforting to me in a way that I'm not sure I can explain. Perhaps it's that despite all the horribleness of this year, I've seen some pretty amazing and beautiful things and it's humbling to be surrounded by such beauty.
Tomorrow Never Comes - Zac Brown Band
Hey, it's my theme song for the year! That's right, I never forgot about it through the year. I still think about and listen to this song a lot. Its message is very strong and clear. We don't know what's going to come, so we have to live now. I'm not going to go into much more depth on this. You can read why I picked it as my theme song by CLICKING HERE.
Butterflies and Hurricanes - Muse
This was my theme song for 2015! Can we talk about how incredible Muse is? And how I never noticed just how incredible until this year? I am loving Muse so much. Okay, great discussion, thanks.
You can read why I picked it as my 2015 theme song by CLICKING HERE, but I do have a few things to say as well.
First of all, the title. No two words describe my year better. Butterflies, like butterflies in my stomach. Nervousness, anxiousness, and a jittery uneasiness has plagued this entire year. And hurricanes, a destructive force in a wave crashing over my life. I'm a little dramatic sometimes. It comes with being a writer (and it being the middle of the night and not having gotten a good night's sleep in over a week).
So yes, the title alone describe my year wonderfully, but we cannot ever forget the words to this song. It's so empowering to me. If I ever need a pick me up, I listen to this song.
"You've got to change the world and use this chance to be heard."
Ah! Love those words so very much. I have done my best to use my depression, anxiety, and miscarriage to help others. Recently I was able to speak with someone who helped me realize that the things I say on here really do help some people. While these are the things that are hardest to talk about, they need to be heard. We can't pretend they don't exist. And it's my chance to be heard, and change the world.
Warrior - Demi Lovato
I have talked about this song a lot on this blog. Too many times to know where to look for links. This is the song that got me through this year. This is the song that gets me through my depression. This is the song that gives me strength to keep going when I feel like giving up.
After my miscarriage, and even sometimes before, I wrote the word "Warrior" on my wrist so I could look down at it and feel stronger. It sat above my scars and kept me from cutting or injuring myself again. It helped protect me when I felt my weakest. This song, this word, has helped save me countless times.
For my 26th birthday this year I got the word officially tattooed on my wrist. I want to write up a full post on it because there is some controversy in my decision, given my religious beliefs, but just know, that this was not impulsive, it was fully thought through, and I believe it was one of the best decisions I've made for myself in a long time.
We All Need Saving - Jon McLaughlin
Ah, my love, Jon McLaughlin. Random tangent, I saw him in concert last Friday and it was just him and his piano and no band and... oh my gosh... I love him so much. I'm sorry Chris. It's a different sort of love, I promise. You're still my soulmate and one true love, Chris.
I think that this song is incredibly important and has been for many years. Because living with depression feels like you're alone. Going through my miscarriage, I was certain no one understood what I was going through and what I was feeling. That's not true, though.
"I don't know why it has to be this way and I don't know the cure, but please believe that someone else has felt this before."
This sentence has meant different things to me at different times. While my religious beliefs have waivered a lot this year, I have never once doubted in the reality and healing power of The Atonement. We are never alone and we are not the only ones who have felt the way we do. "We all need saving" and we can't be afraid to ask for help when we need it.
No matter what you're feeling, you are not alone and you can ask for help from a friend, family member, God, and always me. Because I believe no one should hide their pain, and when you're hurting, you have to find the courage to ask for help.
Well, that was nice, it ended up a lot less depressing than I thought it would be. We also got a lot of different genres, so that was fun.
Thanks for bearing with me through this post and the random and completely unedited photos. I promise I will post more about my tattoo soon because I have a lot to say about it.
Let me know in the comments below what songs describe your year! And please tell me I'm not the only one anxiously waiting for this year to end... Thanks, love you, bye.
This weirdness of this post was brought to you by exhaustion. Get some sleep and don't let it happen to you!

When I saw the title, my first thought was, "he spelled 'complete' wrong." Then I thought about it. Mead is an ancient brew - arguably the first fermented beverage - so why not use an ancient spelling of the word? It fits.
Ken Schramm has done for meadmaking what Jon Iverson, Terry Garey and Daniel Pambianchi have done for winemaking - written a book that will serve the home craft with authority for years to come. Indeed, it was a joy to read. From the historical asides to the award-winning recipes, this book was meant to educate and use. The hardest part was resisting the temptation to put it down and run out to buy some honey.
"Mead, once considered far superior to both wine and beer, fell into obscurity as honey became scarce and expensive, and was never reclaimed from the nobility's vault in which it was laid. Through the work of many people and by virtue of the quality of the beverage itself, mead is making a comeback. This book endeavors to push that comeback along." Thus, quite succinctly, Ken Schramm lays out the gauntlet he chose to run. In my judgement, he succeeded admirably.
The book is divided into four parts. These are Background, Process, Ingredients, and Recipes, followed by appendices, glossary, bibliography, and a very useful index.
Background: I am an historian by education. As such, I am drawn to historical accounts that support my hobbies. So it was with great delight that I read in the opening chapter a fairly good argument for mead claiming the title of oldest fermentable beverage. Indeed, the whole first chapter is about the history of mead, from accidental discovery by paleolithic or neolithic man to the great mead traditions of ancient Egypt, Europe, and wherever sailors sailed. While some would choose to skip this discussion, I hope the number would not be too large. There is serious food for thought here. A very short second chapter defines the styles of mead. I found this chapter to be too short, but I am a fan of nomenclature.
Process: Four chapters compose this portion. "Changing Honey into Wine" goes beyond tradition, of which mead is literally soaked, to bring the craft into the scientific era and improve it generally. The author uses a medium-sweet, orange-blossom mead recipe to walk the reader through the equipment, additives and processes of making mead generally. "Beyond the Basics" looks at the heat and non-heat methods of integrating honey, but also looks at sparkling mead, more equipment, and more additives. "Yeast and Fermentation" covers many subjects -- from yeast choices to residual sugar -- and is, in my opinion, the heart and soul of the meadmaking process. "Conditioning, Aging, and Using Oak" covers these subjects sufficiently for the beginner. While I desired more, I am perhaps atypical.
Ingredients: "All About Honey" is perhaps the author's finest chapter. As a bee-keeper, he is here in his own element and it seeps through loud and clear. I think he restrained himself by only discussing 21 types of honey, but I could be guessing. "Fruit and Melomel" is another meat and potatoes chapter, delving far beyond the superficial to discuss the subject adequately. "Grapes and Pyment" is less meaty but still adequate, confined to the more commonly available Vitis vinifera wine grape varieties. My disappointment at seeing no discussion of North American native grapes may not be widespread, but leaves room for a second edition expansion. "Spices and Metheglin" opens a door wide enough for an 18-wheeler, and he shows tremendous restraint by only discussing 51 suitable spices (of which 15 are chile pepper varieties). "Grains and Braggot" concentrates exclusively on braggots -- malted barley meads -- with only passing mention that there are other grains available. But one can forgive him for this. He does, after all, cover the malts adequately enough to open another huge realm of possible variation.
Recipes: "Putting the Process and Ingredients Together" is a collection of only 11 recipes (12 counting the orange-blossom mead mentioned earlier), but they are carefully chosen to reveal an almost endless number of possibilities across several styles. I doubt anyone will be disappointed, for Ken Schramm's purpose here is to offer the models for countless variations. "Appreciating Your Mead" is a short, seemingly unnecessary chapter - until you read it. Skip it at your own peril.
Indeed, if you are going to make mead at all, skip this book at your own peril. My copy is well-tabbed, and I'm not a beginner....

Ensemble forecasts are shown in a VIS5D display. The many model runs are stacked up as the vertical coordinate! The ith ensemble run is set on the height surfaces as, for example, the ensemble control run at the 0 km (surface), the next ensemble such as "n1" is at 1 km and so on. This organization is laid out in the "list.YYMMDDHH" text list of named files on the same web page as the vis5d ensemble files.
This allows quick browsing of all the ensmebles in the ensemble set using the Vis5D widgets. And Behold, ... It gives user selected weather element event probabilities using VIS5D 3D Iso-surfaces, for example, the probability of a region having more than 6mm of rain or the probability of more than gale force winds, by setting the VIS5D Iso-surface widget to the event you, dear user, desire. One more thing -- seting up the ensemble forecasts this way "sifts" out high probability (user selected) events in the two week period. It answers the two questions: What is going to happen in the two week time frame and how sure of the event happening is the models! Too see this use the Iso-surface animation (time) and watch for high probabilities.
Real time Short Range Ensemble of National Center 48hr forecasts (click here) and the NCEP ensembles are both available in this same way, stacked in the vertical coordinate, z (km). The ensx, national center ensemble, include the NCEP regional models and well known national centers out to 48 hour forecasts. The Global model ensembles VIS5d files have forecasts out to 10 days.

A Former Safe Haven
(MN: Unfortunately, I have to remove this church from the Safe Haven category. Perhaps as they figure out what they want to do and if they want to be reformed, I can put them back on the list. But at this point in their existence, they are out. )
I hope this page is the first of many pages identifying churches that are safe havens for Christians who want to serve and worship God in spirit and in truth. And in a shameless fit of self-promotion, the first church in the series will be…wait for it…wait for it…Reformation Alive Baptist Church (RABC), the church where I serve as an elder. Should be no surprise there.
RABC is approximately three years old and meets in the great hall of "Our Savior Lutheran Church" on St. Barnabas Road. The pastor is Eric Redmond.
As the name implies, the church adheres to a Reformed theology. Another way of phrasing this is to say that a hold to the Doctrines of Grace. In other words, we are Monergists ( and seek to be so as consistently as possible.)
We are governed by elders (Billy Womack being the teaching elder). The other one is Melvin Jones, who is rather camera shy. Their photos follow. Neither of these men preach feel-good sermons. Most days we walk away fully aware of what God requires of us and where we fall short.
The church does not insist you tithe. Instead, they depend on your obedience to God in your heart. They don't attempt to guilt you into giving.
We don't try to get you "excited" in worship. And the congregation is learning that worship is not something we do on Sundays in church. Rather, worship is something we do 24/7 (Romans 12:1-2).
Give us a visit. You may not agree with our entire doctrinal statement, but I guarantee you will find a safe haven from the wolves who want to pimp you. You may even become pimp proof even if you don't decide to make Reformation Alive Baptist Church your home. Besides, if you stay long enough and if you are interested in growing, you will at least be encouraged to defend your position from Scripture. Who can object to that?

Turn your dream of moving to paradise a reality. Make sure to do your homework and research well before you take the big step. Here are some tips to help you out along the way.
Budget Finances
Hawaii has one of the highest costs of living in the United States. Make sure to plan out and budget your finances correctly.
Hawaii has its own style and culture. Life is more laid back and slow paced. In general things will take longer to get done (like getting your mattress delivered) since business runs slowly. Keep this in mind when planning your move. It's a big cultural change for many people so be prepared to slow down.
Finding a job may take longer in Hawaii keep this in consideration. Make sure to tart your job search in advance. Start your job search after you have arrived, it's easier to secure a job when you are in Hawaii. There is a high turnover rate of people that move here and miss home. This sometimes makes companies hesitant of hiring people that have just moved here. Make it known that you here to stay.
Hawaii is beautiful year round take advantage of this. Experience the beauty Hawaii offers by keeping active outdoors, eating fresh organic foods and taking a dip in the ocean whenever you want. If you start to miss home on the mainland think of why you moved there in the first place and Embrace your new life on "Hawaiian Time".

Magnum DX800 and DX40 Serial Device Routers supplied by Dewar Electronics allow users to integrate existing and new Modbus/RTU and Modbus/ASCII serial devices with newer TCP/IP network devices.
Modbus fieldbus technology allows for serial communications between many devices connected to the same network. For example, Modbus is often used to connect a supervisory computer with a remote terminal unit (RTU) in serial supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems.
Modbus/TCP, an extension of Modbus/RTU, defines how Modbus/RTU and Modbus/ASCII messages are encoded within and transported over TCP/IP-based networks.
Major features of the MNS-DX Modbus/TCP functionality include:
Simultaneous client and server operation, including support for multiple serial master and slave Modbus devices
Support for both the ASCII and RTU serial protocol variants
Modbus Plus gateway exceptions provide feedback to master devices when network configuration or communication errors occur
There are configurable timeouts on both the client and server side. This provides maximum flexibility for connecting to a wide variety of serial Modbus devices
Combining features of a Serial Device Server, Ethernet Switch and IP Router in a single product, Magnum DX Serial Device Routers deliver secure multi-protocol networking in a compact, rugged package built for heavy-duty industrial sites, substations, and other harsh environments.
Each DX unit serves as a multi-protocol concentration and access point for a fiber-based Ethernet connection to a small site.
Encrypted per-session SSL and IPsec VPN capabilities, along with other industrial firewall and port security features, assure cyber-security protections will extend cost effectively all the way to end-point devices and small facilities.
The DX Serial Device Routers introduce a new concept in industrial networking - the Dynamic Serial Edge. Traditional Serial/IP Ethernet products relegated serial devices to static roles. New requirements such as Cyber Security move serial devices into an integral role in Industrial Networks.
- Hardened for harsh industrial environments
- IEEE 1613 / IEC 61850-3 for power utility substations
- Serial and Ethernet interfaces (both RJ-45 and 100Mb fibre SFP/SFF)
- Multiprotocol support including: Async and SCADA to TCP/IP; IP Routing; RSTP; Serial multipoint and Multimaster topologies
- Cyber-Security protection including: Serial SSL; Secure HTTP; IPSec encrypted VPNs; Ethernet port security; TCP/IP firewall; Serial port SSL; Per-Serial port VLANs
- For secure serial lines, GCI offers Tactical Software's Serial/IP® COM Port Redirector which creates virtual COM ports with SSL encryption.
- Modbus TCP is now available in MNS-DX 1.3 for DX800 and DX40 Serial Device Routers
- Web GUI, XML
- Industrial firewall appliance
- SNMP management
- AC and DC power options

More on the WisCon fiasco. Nojojojo has some kick-ass thoughts here. Quote from the post!
This is no longer about Elizabeth Moon. She's just the trigger. Even if she recants and apologizes at this point, or resigns as Guest of Honor, the damage has been done. What this incident has exposed is a serious, and possibly fatal, flaw in WisCon itself. The decision to keep a bigot as Guest of Honor — and the decision to delay or avoid reconsidering that decision — means that WisCon isn't actually committed to the principles of intersectionality, social justice for all, equality, or respect, which are all ostensibly part and parcel of the modern feminist movement. They talk a good game, in other words, but when the chips are down, they're not willing to put their money, or actions, where their mouths are.
In conclusion: WisConComm: You are fucking it up. Seriously? WE ARE NOT FRIENDS. :-/ TboneJenkins, though? <3 We're friends and if I go to WisCon I share with you some cookies. Timmi Duchamp from Aqueduct Press also breaks it down here, highlighting that this issue mirrors ongoing conversations in the US, where the right is able to determine the scope of the conversation, and cut out the moderate and far left. SF3 has withdrawn Moon's invitation, but goddamn I still got a lot of feelings. So does NK Jemisin — she's got a clear outline for why this disinvitation is not enough.

Muslim cleric says rape is impossible in a marriage. I'm a little troubled by the way the reporting of this has been handled in terms of comments and stuff, because this isn't a Muslim/ free world issue. I mean, after all, rape in a marriage has been only been a prosecuteable offense in Germany for the last 13 years.
Krystal Bell talks about how politics is a game of slut-shaming when you are a woman running for office. WIN.
From Scarlett:
Found this article about a man who was jailed for three years for raping his housemate when he was drunk. The judge said he had shown remorse and demonstrated that 'a person of otherwise good character can resort to crimes under the influence of alcohol'. I'd love to see this as the start of a cultural belief that that drugs, while sometimes a mitigating circumstance, are not a free pass. First one is from Yahoo, second is from the Sydney Morning Herald.

…Slut-shaming much? Ginny Thomas asks Anita Hill to apologize for accusing her husband of sexual harassment. Maybe Ginny's trying to distract people from her "grass roots" activism.

From The Other Patrick:
Zinnia Jones is awesome anyway, but her public service announcement "spoof" makes it clear how simple the rules actually are – just don't grope people unless you asked and they're okay with it.
BLAST FROM THE PAST! Jezebel talks about the MIT Fuck List from the 70s. Heh. I guess the publicly available fuck lists about female students are less controversial, and easier to see as just plain wrong — I don't see people working to dig up the one from Amherst back in the mid-2000s, or the one from UMass. I imagine it'd be harder to recover them because they were on the Daily Jolt, which doesn't even exist anymore. Then again… women often receive harsher punishments for less serious crimes so who knows — even if it was accessible it might be more business as usual.

The pace of U.S. debt defaults ended 2010 below the most optimistic forecasts made a year earlier as the economy recovered faster than expected and the Federal Reserve pumped cash into credit markets, Standard & Poor's said.
The 12-month trailing default rate reached 3.27 percent in December from 11.1 percent a year earlier, S&P said today in a report. The New York-based company had forecast the rate would likely fall to 5 percent by the end of 2010 or to as low as 4.3 percent under its most optimistic assumptions.
"Although we expected the default rate to decline in 2010, we did not envision it falling as precipitously as it did," S&P analysts led by Diane Vazza said in the report. "Better-than- expected domestic economic conditions in 2010 helped reinvigorate the U.S. corporate landscape."

You agreed to let them do this, also, you are not the ones paying for the servers, and while I don't agree with them doing it, it is their website. If you don't think they should do this, tell them, but they have the right to decide what stays and what goes, and if you don't like that, don't use the website
I saw this video on Youtube the other day that said something I believe applies greatly to this. It said "there is a difference between criticism and hate." Freedom of speech is a human right and therefore it would be outrageous for a person to ban someone from a website just because they hold an opposing view. Honestly, it would be very frivolous and immature to do this because it shows that whoever is shutting this website down is either very close minded, or afraid of the opposition because they know some people may come up with valid points or evidence to scrap the validity of their views.
Why the fu-- should I be banned because I have an opinion different from the rest of the majority of users. I think Sodahead is an elitist piece of s--t. They should be ousted from the internet, find business elsewhere. What a piece of crap of site. I would proudly spit on the owner.

I wanted to give a quick update on the #COLBYDOESAMERICA adventure as it's been a very busy couple of months and I still feel very much in transition. Thanks for everyone's well wishes!
MODEL APPLICATIONS (Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas)
The next leg of the journey begins in Phoenix in October at the home of a very special friend. I'll wind my way north into Utah and Idaho and back south through Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico, arriving in Texas in time for the holidays. If you are interested in participating in #ColbyDoesAmerica and you live in one of these states (or will be there in October/November), please get in touch with me at bigshoediaries at gmail dot com. I'm looking for potential models to work with me, couples/fuckbuds/orgy groups who want to be filmed, and video artists/art directors/editors who want to be a part of each state's video production team. If you're camera shy about your face, but still want to show off, we can make that happen. Shoot me an email with ideas for collaboration, location, availability and maybe some photos if you're hoping to model.
The tweets are out and the photo selfie perks should be finished by the end of this week. T-shirts and postcards are next. Thanks for everyone's patience on these. I was pleasantly surprised and overwhelmed by the support so it's taking longer to get through everything than I thought.
I've been receiving a lot of emails asking me where the videos are located as though we had done them before the fundraising campaign got started. While I'm impressed with the assumption of my industriousness, I have a quick answer: we've just begun to make them, so please be patient. One already exists for the state of Maryland and is currently set to free viewing for all. Filming has happened in California, the District of Columbia and Maine and we are in the editing process. West Virginia and Florida are in the works for later in September and the above mentioned states for October/November.

Whamburgers and cries: you didn't receive your perk. It's for fun mate so just chill out, it'll show up (:ReplyDelete
I am assuming only boy applications are being accepted :(ReplyDelete
Hey, I never heard anything from you with the perk. I don't even remember what it was for which I qualified by donating through Kickstarter; but I would like to confirm that you haven't sent it along. We here in DC have been having problems with mail not being delivered; so, please let me know if you've sent along the perk. And for the record, I am really looking forward to experiencing the work you develop out of your travels. Break a leg!ReplyDelete
I been following your project--and loving the photos.
If you get to N Idaho before the snow flies -- I got some places to recommend to ya. ( Roosevelt Grove of Ancient Cedars, Priest Lakes, Yaak Falls/Kootenai Falls MT, Ross Creek Cedars... ). Travel Mercies.

Pop star Mariah Carey may be playing coy when it comes to her own pregnancy rumours, but recently she has been acting like any proud mum, wanting to share with the world the adorable new addition to her family.
Last week she excitedly announced on Twitter that her Jack Russell had given birth to a puppy, writing, "ChaCha just had her baby! Its a giiirl!!!
And at the weekend she posted photos of the tiny animal, which she is calling "Da Baby" for now.
As for Mariah's rumoured pregnancy, speculation is still rife after the singer pulled out of a new film project last month.
