Stephanie tagged me for this meme. I feel so cool. I got tagged. Thanks.
What did you name your kids and why?
When Trent and I were married, but not yet pregnant we had discussed naming our first boy Jackson Wesley. We liked it a lot. Soon after that my oldest sister got pregnant and told me that they both really liked the name Jackson and it was one of the only names they agreed on. I was happy. We weren't even pregnant so it didn't bother me that they used that name, he is such a cute little Jack. The day before my nephew Jackson was born we found out we were pregnant. Trent didn't want to discuss names until we knew the sex of our baby. Turns out we were having a boy. I started making lists of names I liked. He started crossing out the majority of the names I liked. My little sister Karen had mentioned a long time before to me that she wanted to have a son named Tucker. I was really starting to like that name, and what do you know Trent liked it too, and it was one of the only names that we agreed on. It sounded masculine and simple, easy to spell and pronounce. Nothing made up. We wanted to wait until he was born to make it official so we kept Chase as a back-up name. However, I didn't really want to name my baby Chase, I wanted to name him Tucker. Trent thought that Tucker Trent sounded good together and when he came out, we thought, "There he is, our Tucker Trent."During my pregnancy I got a lot of mixed reviews about the name, but I am so glad we chose it. I love it and think it fits him well.
Our second pregnancy we found out we were having a girl. When I told Trent how much I liked the name Delia and thought it would be perfect, he immediatley nixed it. Crap. Time to start the list. I thought a family name would be nice, but not necessary. My main criteria was that I liked the name, it wasn't made up, it wasn't spelled weird ( sorry, but I just hate names that people spell differently than they are meant to be spelled, plus people never get it right their whole lives), and that it wasn't too common (I don't want my kid to be one of four Jenny's in her class or something like that). Once again Trent crossed out most of the name on my list. Charlotte was always one of the top choices, we wanted to take 2 names to the hospital to choose from, Charlotte remained as the top choice as the other name changed from week to week. I decided since I have always liked my middle name and I wanted a short middle name for my baby that Charlotte Joy sounded pretty cute. We also thought Charlie/Charly was a cute nickname. So out she came and we were down to Charlotte or Paisley. Trent looked at me and I said, "Why don't you decide, I like both." Charlotte it is. We love it and everyone else seems to too, which is great, but not important.
We will probably have 2 more kids and who knows what they will turn out to be named. Right now I love the names Henry and Crosby for a boy. For girls I love Paisley, Amelia, Bridgette, and Daphne. I guess we''l just have to see.
I want to tag Abbie, Emily, Lindy, and Tori.
What did you name your kid(s) and why?
For Emily and Abbie- what names did you like and how did/is the deciding process going.

In the spirit of Halloween I am throwing a Halloween Giveaway! In order to enter you must make either an altered coffin or a halloween ATC. I am playing along so I altered a coffin! It was my first time using a glue gun ( I know! Crazy huh?!) and my first time ever altering a wooden box and I have a lot of fun with it.
This is what I created:
I tried doing the crackle effect using white glue but it didn't really work out for me so I just ended up doing my own thing and made the paint bubble up with my heat tool and then I scraped it and pulled it off using my fingers.
For the inside I lined it with some paper from Carta Bella's Halloween line from 2012 and use some purple trim around it. I then added a glitter spider I bought at my dollar store. I made this coffin so that my mini Living Dead Doll can finally have a home!
Isn't she cute?!
So what do you guys think??? If you have any questions please just ask!
I will be entering my creepy coffin in the recent Stampotique Challenge which is to use buckles, pulls, fasteners, handles, or hinges. This coffin has both hinges and a buckle!
Will also be adding it to Paper Issues Halloween Link Up Giveaway!
Thanks for stopping by!

Boston TV stations and newspapers are reporting that a New Bedford man is pleading not guilty to motor vehicle homicide after a fatal car accident this past weekend.
The 23-year-old driver was drunk at the time of the crash that killed a 20-year-old man, police say.
The driver faces a wide array of charges in addition to homicide: drunken driving, leaving the scene of a fatal accident, driving on a suspended license and possession of drugs with the intent to distribute.
He was arrested Sunday morning following the New Bedford crash in which he reportedly fled the scene on foot. He then allegedly ran to neighbors who live near the crash site, asking them to let him in to their homes. "I can't go to jail for this," witnesses said he pleaded.
Police soon located the man, who they said had the "odor of alcohol" on his breath and also had difficulty walking. A local newspaper reports that the man told police that he ran from the accident scene because he "was drunk."
Law enforcement officials said they found 31 suspected Oxycodone pills in the man's possession, as well as "large amounts of marijuana" and about $3,000 in cash.
Obviously, drunken driving accidents are 100 percent preventable. There is no excuse for intoxicated driving that so often leads to accidents that leave people with serious injuries or that kill innocent drivers, passengers or pedestrians.
The tragedy is compounded when the victim is as young as the man killed in this accident.

NLP, "Neuro-Linguistic Programming" is a technique, introduced by the duo John Grinder and Richard Bandler in 1972. A technique developed to not only enable you have absolute control of your life (time, energy and focus) but also gives you the knowledge to understand and deal with others accordingly and appropriately. Also, NLP does not only explain why things are happening in your life. It also teach you how you can have absolute control your life. It does this by helping you overcome your past, welcome your future and have control of your thoughts.
NLP works at three separate but coherent domains with respect to its three words (Neuro, Linguistic and Programming). By "Neuro", NLP controls the quality of your thoughts. Your thoughts control your mind and eventually, your life (time, energy and focus). By "Linguistic", NLP enables you get control of what and how you speak. It also helps learn how to build rapport with others through mirroring their language pattern. By "Programming", NLP educates you on every step to take in order to control your time, energy and focus.
Some NLP Techniques for the Above Purpose
Just like every other person in this world, you certainly want complete control over your time, energy and focus. In the words of Wayne Dyer "I cannot always control what goes on outside. But I can always control what goes on inside.", but NLP enables you take control of what goes on inside which to some appreciable extend determines what goes on outside. Below are some suitable NLP techniques for this purpose.
Set Priorities
You cannot effectively manage your time, energy and focus until you know what is important to you. Setting your key priorities for the next 3 months or more as the case may be is very essential, though they might change due to life events.
It is important to quickly review these priorities every day so as to establish them in your unconscious mind and gets you ready for the actual event.
Anchoring is an NLP technique which enables you takes control of your focus at any point in time. It does this by making association between what we feel, hear and see and our emotional states. By constantly or repeatedly exposing yourself to a particular/unique stimulus (sound, see and feel) while you focus on a particular emotional state, you call trigger that emotional state by executing that unique stimulus. With this NLP technique you change your focus at any point in time.
Daily Routines
By mentally rehearsing how we want the day to go, and whatever exercise, relaxation and focus routines is very important for us as individuals. It also enables you manage your time effectively and your readiness (energy) for the set routines.
By so doing, our daily activities take very little of our time and energy, and we get to focus on our top priority activities.
No life event is truly "unreframable". You can at any point in time reframe your perception about an event with the use NLP. If a particular event makes you lose focus, this technique enables you see the bright sight of that event that will motivate you and increase your focus.
Designing our Environment
Having people around you keeps you energized, focused, creative and on track. Our environment can have the same impact; the color on the walls, the space and the pictures can either affect us positively or negatively. I personally like hanging my mentor's pictures on the walls of my working environment. Each time I have a glimpse at them I get a sense of motivation.
Key Question Stack
Asking yourself great questions lead your thinking and your emotions, which in turn lead our behavior. The following is a list of great questions for some situations we may encounter.
- Am I being productive or just active?
- Is this worth investing my time, energy and focus on?
- What am I going to stop doing?
- What are we going to start doing?
- What is our 3 priority for this period of time?
- How can I help?
- Where am I going?
NLP provides the practical ways to enable us control our time, energy and focus.

text: We consider the problem of a government that wants to manage the country's debt-to- GDP (gross domestic product) ratio. The latter evolves stochastically in continuous time, and its drift is given by the interest rate on government debt, net of the growth rate of GDP. We further allow the interest rate to be affected by an exogenous macroeconomic risk process modelled by a continuous-time Markov chain with N states. The debt-to-GDP ratio level can be reduced by the government, e.g. through austerity policies in the form of spending cuts, or increased, e.g. by public investments. The aim of the government is to choose a policy which minimises the total expected cost of having debt plus the total expected cost of austerity policies, counterbalanced by the total expected gain from public investments. We model this as a bounded-variation stochastic control problem over an infinite time-horizon with regime switching, and we provide its explicit solution. To the best of our knowledge, such a problem has not been previously solved in the literature. We show that it is optimal for the government to adopt a policy that keeps the debt-to-GDP ratio in an interval, whose boundaries are depending on the states of the risk process, and are given through a zero-sum optimal stopping game with regime switching. We completely characterise these boundaries as solutions to a system of nonlinear algebraic equations with constraints. Finally, we put in practice our methodology in a case study of a Markov chain with N = 2 states; we provide a thorough analysis and we complement our theoretical results by a detailed numerical study on the sensitivity of the optimal debt ratio management policy with respect to the model's parameters.

from Positive Sobriety Institute, May 31, 2018
Long hours, a frantic pace, a competitive environment and pressure to succeed can contribute to making the job of a lawyer extremely stressful. Research shows that lawyers struggle with depression, anxiety disorders and substance use disorders such as drug and alcohol addiction at higher rates than other professions.
Despite the well-known toll that working in a high-intensity, demanding field can take, lawyers are typically unwilling to admit when they were struggling, said Buddy Stockwell, who is also a lawyer and the executive director of the Louisiana Judges and Lawyers Assistance Program (JLAP).
According to Stockwell, the stigma and fear associated with seeking help for mental health and substance use issues are especially problematic for lawyers.
"We are trained in law school very early on to never surrender. That's a huge barrier to seeking help. Lawyers do not want to give up and do not want to appear incapable of handling problems themselves," Stockwell said. "And of course, there is the tremendous fear that if anyone finds out that you have a substance abuse problem, even if it's successfully treated, it will somehow get you fired, get you into trouble with the disciplinary board, and have your peers whispering about you around the water cooler. The fear is that somehow it may be used against you."
To encourage lawyers struggling with alcoholism, drug addiction and mental health disorders to proactively seek help, the Louisiana Judges and Lawyers Assistance Program facilitates totally confidential assessments, referrals and ongoing support to help attorneys remain substance free. As part of the effort, Louisiana JLAP partners with select addiction treatment centers, including Positive Sobriety Institute in Chicago, that have outstanding reputations for treating professionals in safety-sensitive, high-consequence fields.
"To have a partner like Buddy Stockwell at the Louisiana Judges and Lawyers Assistance Program is really a gift," said Positive Sobriety Institute Medical Director Dr. Dan Angres. "Because of that partnership, we're going to see better outcomes. When you combine treatment and monitoring with the ability to collaborate over the long-term, everybody benefits, especially the patient."

Driving-distance destinations in and around Germany boomed last year as holidaymakers enjoyed scorching temperatures close to home instead of flying aboard, the fvw Destination Ranking 2019 shows.
Germany's Baltic and North Sea coasts, the Netherlands and Poland were just some of the winners with high-growth rates for visitors and overnight stays. Within Germany, the northern states of Schleswig-Holstein and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern proved very popular, especially with families. Overall, the number of overnight stays by Germans within their own country increased by 3.8% to nearly 390 million in 2018, the fastest growth rate in the last five years.
Two neighbouring countries again performed well on the German market in 2018. The Netherlands registered an 8.2% rise in overnight stays by German visitors last year, and a 55% increase over the last five years. Although many Germans headed for Amsterdam, where overtourism has become a serious problem, the Dutch beaches were popular with families from western German regions. Similarly, Poland continues to win more German visitors with a 6.5% rise in overnight stays last year, which represents one third more over the last five years.
The fastest-growing destination in a five-year comparison, however, is Slovenia, with its mix of mountainous countryside and attractive cities. German overnight stays in the small country on the sunny side of the Alps increased by 8% in 2018, and by 68% since 2013. To a certain extent, Slovenia is attracting Germans who traditionally holidayed in Austria or Switzerland. Austria showed a solid rise last year but has achieved only moderate growth over the last five years, while Switzerland has seen a 16% drop in overnight stays by Germans over the same period, although it did show an improvement last year.
Elsewhere, France has made a good comeback on the German market over the last two years following terrorist attacks but remains below record levels. Belgium is also suffering for similar reasons with fewer German visitors.
Among the other Central European countries, the Czech Republic continues to draw more German tourists year after year, and Hungary is back in favour after several years of declines, but Slovakia is still under-performing with fewer German visitors.


text: Martin Luther was an Augustinian monk and taught at the University of Wittenberg. In 1517, Luther posted his ninety-five theses on the door of the church in Wittenberg, which was a common way to call on open debate during this time period. In this list, he questioned the Catholic church and called for reform. The ninety-five theses ultimately sparked the Protestant Reformation. Despite the impact of his writings, he had no intention of creating a divide in the church and only wanted to unify it in what he believed was that "true teachings of the Bible". In theses one, Martin is telling them that God expects the life of a Christian to be filled with repentance. He follows by stating that only God can give salvation and that the clergy cannot give this. Martin is saying that the sacrament of penance that is given by the clergy is not the same as the salvation that comes from God. He did not agree with Tetzel, who said that indulgences would save the dead in purgatory for their sins. He explains that canon law applies only to the living. Martin writes that priests should not threaten the dying with the penalties of purgatory and that they are ignorant in doing so. In theses three, he explains that repentance is useless is it is not followed by a change in actions and lifestyle. Martin believed that Christians that believe they are saved simply because they are indulgence letters are damned. Luther states that those who teach that remorse is not needed when the individual has bought "confessional privileges preach unchristian doctrine." Martin Luther was strongly against that abuse of indulgences. He was particularly angry with the fact that Johann Tetzel was selling indulgences to fund the renovation of the St. Peter Basilica in Rome. He viewed this as the church commercializing repentance and questioned whether the sale of indulgences granted forgiveness. Martin wanted Christians to know that buying pardons did not compare to doing works of mercy. He believed that Christians were expected to provide for their families first. Martin wondered why the Pope, who was richer than others in the community, didn't provide the funds for the building of the basilica with his own money instead of selling indulgences to the poor. In the sixth theses, Luther writes "the pope cannot remit any guilt, except by declaring and showing that it has been remitted by God; or, to be sure, by remitting guilt in cases reserved to his judgement. If his right to grant remission in these cases were disregarded, the guilt would certainly remain unforgiven." Basically, he is saying that only God can forgive people and that the pope can only assure them of this forgiveness that comes for God. This is giving the pope less power. By saying this, it is lowering the power and role of the pope in the lives of the people. It also changes his religious authority. Also, by saying that God provides salvation, he is basically taking the authority that the church has over salvation. In theses twenty, he states that the pope cannot offer forgiveness for all sins and only for the penalties that he himself imposed. In this list, Martin questioned the ability of the pope to remit the guilt of sin. He believed that any intercession of the church was only allowed and successful because of the authority and power of God. The two central themes of the ninety-five theses were very controversial and opened the debate that led to the Protestant Reformation. These beliefs are that the Bible is the central authority of he religion and that humans obtain salvation through faith alone instead of the belief that good deeds were required. These ideas were at the core of Protestantism. Martin Luther's writings started this time of reform and set the foundation for what would be the Protestant Reformation. His protest for reform within the church inspired others to follow his lead and do the same. Some of his ideas had been brought up in the past, but a few things made this particular instance stand out. First of all, Martin was fearless when it came to questioning the authority of the church and did so during the debate. Secondly, the printing press spread his writings all over Europe into the hands of citizens. Martin Luther translated the Bible to German so the ordinary people could read it and interpret it on their own in hopes that they would discover what he considered the truth. Luther also believed that the German princes should reform the Catholic churches in their states and this began to occur. This was the beginning of the Protestant Reformation. Lutheranism spread and became the state religion in Germany and Scandinavia. Martin Luther, John Calvin, and Henry VIII challenged the church. This led to wars and persecutions. The reformation ended with the Peace of Augsburg and the Treaty of Westphalia. The reason that Luther's document and the other works of reformers were so influential was because of the use of the printing press to spread their ideas. Martin Luther (1483-1546) was an Augustinian theologian, monk, and professor that voiced his ideas and used the printing press to share them with others. His ninety-five theses was a very important document that led to the Protestant Reformation. In this document, he questioned the sale of indulgences and the authority of the pope. He opened a debate on this by posting it on the door of the cathedral at Wittenberg. This common act sparked one of the most influential reformations in history.

For those who are wondering the two thin lines around the edge are drawn on using the marker, otherwise the rest of the card is pretty self explanatory.
Also Thank You to all the lovely ladies who left comments last week, we were away from Sunday morning so I didn't have time to look at all the other creations & leave some comments, will endeavour to do so this week.

Butterbean and celeriac mash is a tasty and interesting variation on classic mashed potato. Adding the butterbeans also adds some protein, making it a great option as part of a vegan roast dinner.
What do you like to have with your veggie or vegan roast dinner? I can't say that I have found the perfect recipe – yet. Many of my favourites, such as the Delia Smith parsnip roulade, I can no longer eat since becoming vegan. Nut roasts can be awful or wonderful but they tend to be quite a lot of work. I often end up either with vegan sausages or just having the veg.
The latter does leave a lack of protein though and that's why this butterbean and celeriac mash is so brilliant. It's a great side dish regardless, but if you're feeling the lack of protein with your roast dinner and just can't be bothered to make a nut roast or something similar then this dish is a great choice.
I find this quite light to eat as well – the herby celeriac mash has a fresh taste and the butterbeans aren't too stodgy. It works well as a summer side dish too.
Here's how to make butterbean and celeriac mash:
Butterbean and celeriac mash
Butterbean and celeriac mash is a tasty and interesting variation on classic mashed potato. Adding the butterbeans also adds some protein, making it a great option as part of a vegan roast dinner.
- 1 medium celeriac
- 1 400g tin of butterbeans drained and rinsed
- 1-2 tbsp olive oil or dairy free spread
- Small handful parsley chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
Peel the celeriac and chop off any knobbly bits. If your celeriac is covered in mud you might prefer to do this in the sink. Cut into similar sized pieces.
Bring a large pan of water to the boil and cook the celeriac until soft.
When cooked drain and return to the pan. Add the butterbeans and the olive oil or spread and mash well. You won't get it completely smooth but it has a nice texture so don't worry too much.
When you're happy with the texture add the chopped parsley and mash in briefly.
Serve as a side dish. I like it with a vegan roast dinner.

Glimmer of hope in bay's grim report card / Ecological damage seems to be slowing, scientists say
The San Francisco Bay is getting an ecological report card today -- and it doesn't look good. But there's hope behind the C's, D's and an F, according to the nonprofit environmental group that graded the bay's health.
New laws and regulations that cut down on water pollution and a Bay Area campaign to restore wetlands are just beginning to stabilize 150 years of decline in the bay's once-abundant native fish and wildlife populations, according to the Bay Institute of San Francisco.
"The destruction of San Francisco Bay's unique environment has in some cases been halted or even slightly reversed," said Grant Davis, Bay Institute executive director.
To measure the health of the bay, scientists with the Bay Institute in Novato spent three years examining such things as wildlife habitat and pollutants, and prepared the Bay Index 2003. Scientists also looked at freshwater flows from the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers and the numbers of fish, shellfish and the microscopic plankton that feed these higher forms of aquatic life.
The bay's grades -- one B, three C's, three D's and an F -- were based on historical conditions, environmental and public health standards, and restoration targets, according to the institute.
Scientists found that native fish and wildlife populations have drastically declined, while non-native species have invaded the bay. Fish caught in the bay are unsafe to eat and pollution has risen; freshwater flows and wetland habitat have been reduced.
But the findings were not all bleak.
"Fish and wildlife populations that were crashing now appear to be stable. Many people are working to protect and restore habitat, improve water quality and use resources more efficiently. But progress is slow and needs to be accelerated," Davis said.
The scientists compiled and analyzed data gathered from state and federal agencies, and invited national experts on estuaries to review their findings.
Tina Swanson, fish biologist and member of the science team working with the Bay Institute, said decades of diversions of Sacramento and San Joaquin river hwater to growers and cities have taken a heavy toll on native aquatic species in the bay.
Historically, during rain and snowmelt, the fresh river waters have flowed into the bay and out the Golden Gate. The rush of the rivers creates a special mixing zone where the freshwater hits the salty ocean water, providing an important nursery for many estuary species, scientists say.
"The bay suffers from a permanent drought because so much water is diverted from its watershed," said Swanson. The species are not recovering from the steep decline they experienced over the last several decades, she said.
Larry Kolb, assistant executive officer of San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board, praised the new scorecard, saying, "If we're going to spend money restoring the bay, we need ways to tell if we're succeeding or not.
And this is a big step in that direction."
Among the findings:
-- Between 1980 and 2001, the abundance of native fish declined by 50 percent. The long-term downward slide is associated with less freshwater to the bay, wetland and other habitat loss, and a decrease in plankton in Suisun Bay.
-- In the spring, when fish need fresh flows to the bay from the Sacramento and San Joaquin rivers, the bay's share of water has been cut as much as 75 percent since 1940, before the completion of major state and federal projects that divert water.
-- Tidal marsh has decreased since the Gold Rush era from 190,000 acres to 40,000 acres. Since the mid-1990s, public agencies and private groups have acquired 40,000 acres, and at least two-thirds of these acres are slated for restoration in the next 30 years.
-- In Suisun Bay since the mid-1970s, phytoplankton -- microscopic plants -- have declined 80 percent, and rotifer zooplankton -- microscopic animals -- have dropped 98 percent. The declines also were associated with a scarcity of freshwater and an increase in non-native species in the bay.
-- Juvenile Dungeness crab have increased dramatically over the last five years. But commercial landings are still only about 20 percent of the levels in the 1940s and 1950s. Numbers of rock crab and bay shrimp have increased in recent years but have leveled off.
-- The bay's open waters are cleaner than they were 30 years ago, but no progress has been made in the past decade. Less visible but more persistent toxic chemicals such as mercury, copper, selenium, nickel, pesticides and PCBs continue to be found at levels that violate water-quality standards in some locations.
-- In 2000, 94 percent of all bay fish sampled were contaminated with PCBs, mercury, DDT or chlordane pesticides at levels that made them unsafe to eat. In 2002, bay beaches were reported posted or closed for 50 days, a doubling over 2001.
-- Bay Area residents used water more efficiently, but the average person's use of 95 gallons a day fell short of the conservation target of 66 gallons a day. Municipalities recycled 68 percent of the amount targeted for reuse.
The scorecard may be viewed at www.bay.org.
The grading system compares conditions in the bay and its watershed to historical conditions, environmental and public health standards and restoration targets.
Habitat: Bay habitat loss is slowly being reversed, but it could take nearly 200 years to reach the tidal marsh restoration goal.
Freshwater inflow: Reduced inflows are still degrading the bay ecosystem, and recent gains from wetter years and new standards are being eroded.
Water quality: Open waters are cleaner, but standards are not met in parts of the bay. Toxic sediments and storm runoff are a major problem.
Food web: Plankton levels in the upper bay have crashed, reducing food sources for fish and birds. Alien species are locally dominant.
Shellfish: Crab and shrimp numbers are increasing, but commercial harvest is still down from previous high levels.
Fish: After a long decline, fish populations are stable at low levels, but some species are still endangered.
Fishable-swimmable-drinkable: Fish are harder to catch and unsafe to eat. Beach closures are up, drinking water violations are down.
Stewardship: Water conservation, pollution limits, monitoring and restoration efforts are finally under way, but progress is slow.

Combination of Botox, Laser and Biostimulatory
We are so excited to introducte PICOSURE (made by Cynosure, Westford, MA, www.cynosure.com) at our laser center.
Picosure is an FDA approved pico second pulsed laser that takes tattoo laser removal to a different level. Over the past 20 years there has been minimal advancement in laser tattoo removal. The standard q switched or nano pulsed laser has been the laser of choice which is pulsed a one-one thousandth of a second to help shatter pigment. We typically tell patients that the nanosecond laser can take from 5-20 treatments to remove a tattoo depending on the color, location, baseline skin color etc.
The PICOSURE is pulsed at one-one trillionth of a second! That is a significant advancement that uses not only photothermal but photomechanical effects to shatter the pigmentation to better clear the tattoo. Typically it takes from 2-8 treatments separated by 4-6 weeks. This minimizes the time a patient must wait to clear the tattoo.
Our center is the 20th center in the US to have this technology. Now there are roughly 30 PICOSURE lasers in the US.
We are currently enrolling in clinical studies with the PICOSURE. If you have a tattoo and would like to have it removed, schedule a complimentary consultation and we will see if you are a good candidate for the study.

One of my favorite lasers for skin tightening is fractional CO2 laser (Smartskin). This laser has the ability to penetrate deep into the dermis and stimulate collagen.
The new Picosure Laser by Cynosure is the first picosecond laser to come to market. This laser has been in development for the past decade and truly marks the first new innovation for laser tattoo removal in the past 24 years!
Topical Vitamin C is one of the most important ingredients that should be applied to the skin.
Sculpsure Laser is the newest laser in minimally invasive body contouring.
Through the decades, we begin to lose fat from our face. It is not just fat that we lose, but we also begin to lose bone and our facial structures begin to descend with lack of support from the diminished fat.

New Transceiver
Post: #1
New Transceiver
Hi everyone.
Well I've finally lost the plot I've gone an bought a new transceiver... It's something I've been looking at for years and years and years. 2017 was a really bad year for me and this year's not been that good so far either, so I thought why not treat myself..
So I did.... I now own the little FT-817ND QRP transceiver, I love QRP and always have so took the plunge. What a lovely little radio, I've read some really good reviews as well as many bad reviews but I think it's a super little rig, easy to use very portable after all that's what it was made for... and I love it.
It came today (Saturday 13/01/18) I've not really given it a good test as yet but have had a quick tune around the bands and I have no complaints.
I plan to buy a new car sometime this year and hope to use the FT-817ND /P
Can't wait to get on the bands and try it out with CW and SSB plus I will be using the radio for WSPR too ( I have the software etc. ) And may even try some other digital modes too. Anyway I'll keep you up to date on the 817 and how thing's go with it. I'll be updating my QRP page soon to incorporate the FT-817ND and my /P activities. Take care all.
73 / 72 Peter.

Can we code answers in a specific way that doesn't match what is shown on the form?
If the coding is simple, you can provide detail or directions in the "Special Instructions" section. For example, if you have a yes/no answer, where you want "2" for "No" and "1" for "Yes," you would:
- Define the answer as a select-one field.
- Enter "1" and "2" as the two possible answers.
- Add a Special Instruction saying: "ATTENTION: Select '2' if 'No' is marked, and '1' if 'Yes' is marked."
You can also code the data after it has been digitized using the tools on the Template settings page. You can find and replace values, change capitalization, and split multiple choice responses into multiple columns. You can get to the Template settings page through the Templates tab by clicking "settings" under a Template.
Or, you can access Template settings from a Job Results page or a Data Hub by clicking on "More Actions" and then "Template settings."

Excerpts from DVFS Students' Personal Learning Journey Essays
The student comments below are excerpted from their personal learning journey essays that are a required component of DVFS English teacher Bill Keeney's unit on My Dyslexia, a memoir by Pulitzer Prize winning poet Philip Schultz who was diagnosed with dyslexia as an adult.
Self-understanding (metacognition) and self-advocacy are critical for student success. In both our upper and middle schools, we place great emphasis on empowering our students for that "next step." Students develop self awareness and self-advocacy skills in age-appropriate ways as they move through DV. Our academic program's emphasis on skills and strategies equips our students with a firm understanding of how they learn best, what they need to do to overcome their specific challenges—and the language and courage to successfully articulate their needs to others.
As students develop an understanding of their strengths and challenges, they also learn what tools and strategies they will need for more successful learning and academic performance. And as they mature in their understanding of how they learn, they are expected to evolve beyond understanding to self-advocacy. The ability to explain their particular learning difference and the challenges that difference may present, as well as the confidence to ask for what they need to be successful, are critical skills in their preparation for college and career.
As 11th grade students, the My Dyslexia project is an opportunity to share their stories - and these skills- with their peers. These students graciously agreed to allow us to share their stories more broadly in hopes that their experiences could help others by providing a sense of community, hope and inspiration to families still finding their way.
My parents recognized my learning difference when I was in seventh grade. I was tested by a neuropsychologist who said that I had a cognitive disorder, a mathematics disorder, and a mixed receptive and expressive language disorder.
In my old school, some teachers would say that I was lazy and did not try hard enough. In reality, I always wanted to learn and be the best in the class. I would stay after school almost every day because I did not understand the math assignments or the lessons. I would ask the teacher to repeat the directions and he would roll his eyes. Whenever a teacher would act that way, it would cause me to never ask for help again.
These experiences caused me to not enjoy learning, made me feel sad, lowered my self-confidence, and caused a lot of stress both at home and at school.
Now I attend Delaware Valley Friends School, a school that is designed to teach to students' unique learning styles, I feel like I am open to learning and the school's approach sets me up to be successful. I have the right supports and I am surrounded by teachers who are very patient, understanding and know how to teach students with learning differences.
It makes me feel sad that there are other students with a learning difference who are not getting the help and support they need and deserve. It is important to educate the public about how students learn differently.
Students in Bill's class are invited to use other creative media, besides writing, to convey their message. In this video, by Delaware Valley Friends School senior Olivia W., Olivia describes what it is like to be a student living with a learning difference - dyslexia and ADHD - and what she has learned about herself on this journey. The film won the 2017 Bridge Film Festival category: New Media.
Have you ever heard of the word dyslexia? Dyslexia means a general term for a disorder that involves difficulty in learning to read or interpret words, letters, and other symbols. When I was in third grade, I was diagnosed with dyslexia.
Once my parents found out that I had a learning disability, I switched schools. Since then I have attended two schools that specialize in teaching students with learning disabilities and they taught me how to advocate for myself.
I came to Delaware Valley Friends School in ninth grade. Each day I learn more about the brain and how it works. I consider myself blessed because my parents helped me by switching me to a school that helped me with my learning disability.
Do you have a child with a Learning Disability? Everyone is different and might not have dyslexia, ADHD, or a comprehension disorder, but if your child or someone you know is struggling, please help them.
I wonder what time it is? I wonder how my old school is doing? I wonder what's for lunch today? I wonder what song I should listen to next? I wonder if it's going to rain soon?
This is what it feels like to have ADD. ADD, also known as, Attention Deficit Disorder, gives people a harder time with learning and paying attention because they are so distracted by the world around them. I was diagnosed with ADD around age six or seven.
With my A.D.D, I really need to learn how to stay on task and focus. I can easily be distracted by the smallest things: a pencil sharpening, someone chewing gum, birds chirping outside.
At DV, I've discovered different strategies that help me learn. One is using audiobooks through Learning Ally. Listening to an audiobook with headphones helps me cancel out the noise around me and focus on reading. With Learning Ally, I can also read at the right speed for comprehension, and can adjust the speed faster or slower if I need to.
I have learned enough about myself and the way I learn that I can advocate for myself. I now know the right tools that I need to feel and become successful in school and in the working world.
What I If told you that you just read this sentence wrong. You would probably laugh a little, looking back to see that the word "I" and "if "are switched. But what if I told you this sentence is wrong too. You probably second guessed yourself and looked back to see if it was. This is just a small hint of the world of a dyslexic. Constantly making mistakes is something that I struggle with as a reader. Dyslexia affects confidence because you ALWAYS feel wrong.
In fourth grade (the year I found out I was dyslexic) we had to read every night and chart our reading. I gave up on trying to read every night and would tell my friends that it was stupid, which heighten my popularity a bit. I felt labeled by all my teachers as a rebellious kid that did not try in school. The kids all admired me for it but I could see that in addition to admiration, they pitied me.
In the seventh grade I transferred to a school for kids with learning differences. At the new school, I thrived. I loved it at Delaware Valley Friends and it took me no time at all to figure out what I loved about it. Although all the kids had different learning differences, they all were aware of what it was like to be different. The community at DV is unmatched because everyone feels like they are equals. Everyone can try their best and make mistakes because they know they are surrounded by people who will support them and boost them up.
I'm strong now and I know that, which is why I am proud to say that I am dyslexic.
Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) is misunderstood in the majority of educational environments. I was diagnosed with APD when I was 6-years-old and ever since then I have learned different ways to compensate.
Students with APD can hear perfectly fine but the information they hear does not always reach the brain and, therefore, they have difficulty processing language. APD is present in about 5% of school-aged children.
"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn." – Benjamin Franklin.
This quote from Benjamin Franklin expresses exactly how APD affects us. If someone is talking or teaching me, I won't remember it as well as someone who involves me in my learning. At DVFS I was provided with smaller class sizes, supportive teachers, and assistive technology to help me learn, compensate, and become a self-advocate for my APD. I realize that I have to be my best teacher and I'll always have to compensate and advocate for my needs. These are skills that I will not only need in college, but in life.
Much of my life has been adapting to a world where everyone learns the same. Had it not been for early intervention and being diagnosed with APD at a young age, I would have never been as successful of a student as I am today.
I was diagnosed with Auditory Processing Disorder, ADHD, and Dysgraphia at the age of 7.
I remember constantly having IEP meetings with my parents and all of my teachers, and me sitting in the corner silently. During Middle School my schedule consisted of the lowest possible classes and Learning Support classes all throughout the day.
I had a friend who also had a LD and had transferred to a school for kids like us who were struggling. He would always tell me how much better he felt and how much weight was lifted off his shoulders after moving to this new school. After talking with my parents, I decided it was time to try it out. I was able to shadow him for a day and follow him to all his classes. It was a life changing experience. I never realized how much learning I was actually missing. It gave me hope, like a light at the end of a long and dark tunnel.
Nobody with an LD deserves to feel lost or ashamed of how their mind operates. You aren't stupid. Your mind works in completely different ways than others. Being quiet about your LD is the worst thing you can do for yourself. If you feel as if you aren't actually learning anything and being pushed through school just getting by, speak up. You won't regret it in the long run.
When Sarah was asked to work on the My Dyslexia assignment, she chose to make an illustrated video with narration to tell her story.
A learning disability can affect the way you see yourself and how you interact with people. A common misconception about those diagnosed with a learning disability is that they are not intelligent, which simply is not the case.
I've come to understand that people who do not quite understand learning differences can be sensitive to them even if they don't themselves have one. An environment like DV makes it extremely easy to relate to people with an LD different than your own and gain an understanding about other people's needs. Respect is such an important aspect of understanding people's' differences, and that is all I've seen at DVFS.
As frustrating as a known learning disability can be, an undiagnosed learning disability is more difficult by far. When you do not have the energy or desire to finish or complete assignments and are then labeled as "lazy" or lacking determination it can be extremely disappointing.
I believe that most of the time people think less of people with learning differences. However, I think that they couldn't be more wrong. Albert Einstein said, "Everybody is a genius.

Panel to Feature Arizona's Top Sports Business Executives

Sperber, along with six of his fellow leaders in sports, business, entertainment and public policy will participate in "Arizona's Heating Up," an innovative webcast on Thursday, Nov. 7 at 1 p.m. MST (3 p.m. EST) which will be broadcast digitally from the Royal Palms Resort and Spa.
The webcast is the second of the eight-part Sports Business Insider Series, which is moderated by national sports media personality and host of Bloomberg TV's "Sportfolio," Rick Horrow. Launched at Daytona International Speedway in September, the Series addresses the most current issues in major sports, both national and specific to the host region, via panel discussions with prominent sports business and media executives, and political/community leaders.
The event will be available via webcast to a nationwide audience and will address many of the issues that impact the sports business landscape in the Valley of the Sun.
"I am thrilled to kick off our AdvoCare 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race weekend by participating in the Sports Business Insider Series discussion," Sperber said. "It is an honor to be a part of such an impressive group of panelists and I look forward to the thoughtful discussion on the current issues facing the sports business industry here in the Valley."
Joining Horrow and Sperber in the discussion, and covering the full spectrum of timely sports business topics in the Valley of the Sun, will be:
>> Doug Ducey, Arizona State Treasurer
>>Brian Hogan, Senior VP and General Manager, FOX Sports Arizona
>>Tom King, 2014 Waste Management Phoenix Open Tournament Chairman
>>Jay L. Parry, CEO of Arizona Super Bowl Host Committee
>>Michael Waltrip, founder and co-owner of Michael Waltrip Racing and two-time Daytona 500 Champion
"In Arizona as well as around the globe, the billion-dollar business of sports evolves daily," Horrow added. "As fans become more sophisticated, sponsors become more demanding, media becomes more creative, and technology becomes more advanced, the industry must demonstrate more insight. I am excited to assist PIR in sharing 'best practices' and analysis with these key industry partners in the region."

Performing Arts
The Performing Arts Faculty has an important role to play in the personal development of our students at Northfields International High School. The skills and qualities developed in drama and music, including teamwork, creativity, leadership and risk-taking are assets in all subjects and all areas of life. The Performing Arts Faculty stimulates the imagination and allows our students to explore issues and experiences in a safe and supportive environment. We operate on the principle of providing a broad, balanced, relevant and differentiated curriculum.
Objectives and Challenges
The Performing Arts Faculty enhances our students' ability to become effective and independent learners, as well as critical and reflective thinkers with enquiring minds. Trust, self-confidence and communication skills are encouraged through all areas of study, as well as throughout the School.
The Academic Programme
At present Drama is taught in forms in year 7, 8 and 9 every week, each lesson lasting one hour. All lessons in these years include both practical and written work in order to eventually prepare for IGCSE work. The KS3 curriculum builds key drama skills and allows student to develop by working in small groups, pairs and as individuals.
Year 7 - Introduction to Drama
This scheme of work allows pupils to gain a basic skills knowledge for practical Drama and looks at the actor as a storyteller.
Year 8 – World War One literature through Drama
This scheme of work allows pupils to gain a basic skills knowledge for practical Drama, also giving them a basic knowledge of World War One literature that complements work completed in the English Department.
Year 9 - Introduction to Physical Theatre
This scheme of work allows pupils to gain a developed skills knowledge for practical Drama, also giving them exposure to the renowned physical theatre company, Frantic Assembly. They will then use this knowledge to devise their own practical work based on the Hillsborough Disaster.
Year 10 and 11
The IGCSE Cambridge Drama course helps encourage students to explore and actively engage in a wide range of creative and stimulating activities. Coursework relies solely on the practical work produced, though it is a demanding and detailed syllabus that culminates in a 2-hour written exam that is taken in Year 11.

Baltimore City schools are looking at a drop in state funding after an internal investigation uncovered "irregularities" in attendance records.
As the Washington Post reports, when city schools CEO Gregory Thornton visited schools he did not find classrooms overcrowded with students as he expected. The enrollment numbers didn't square with what he saw.
In fact, "it got to the point of having to have conversations about data integrity, " Thornton said, "because we can't build this organization on false numbers." So he launched an investigation, which turned up 230 students on the rolls that shouldn't have been.
But clearing the "ghost students" from the record means less education money from the state. According to the Washington Post, the enrollment drop plus a new system for allocating funds would dock Baltimore's funding by $25 million under Gov. Larry Hogan's proposed budget.

Christmas Lunch 2018
Filled to capacity, the dining room at East Devon Golf Club was buzzing with members getting together for the Club's biggest social event of the year.
Ralph made his appearance as MC and Chairman for the last time at the lunch and thanked Lisa and her team for organising such a splendid occasion.
He also introduced our president, Alan Cotton and John Hammond, our Vice President, who, with their wives Tricia and Katie respectively, enjoyed a splendid meal and friendly welcome.
Another year and another Christmas lunch - 2019 is now only days away and with plans for a full programme of events and activities, there will be many opportunities for further get-togethers for us all.
Do look at the slide show below – lots of happy members, looking forward to a Merry Christmas and an active, enjoyable and productive 2019.
... and also The Venture Group Christmas Lunch
To finish off a fun season of painting, members of the Venture Group got together for a pre-Xmas lunch and opportunity to critique some of the paintings produced over the last few weeks.
For anyone new to the Club, the Venture Art folks are split into two groups, both morning and afternoon on Tuesdays running through the year with breaks around holidays. Great opportunities for making new friends and learning from each other.
Space is limited and there is usually a waiting list, but if you're interested then we can put you in touch with the organisers.
Great fun, very relaxed and informal.
Very enjoyable sessions.
