Comprehensive Future campaigns for fair school admission policies in England. The campaign is non party political and open to all. It has the support of school staff, governors, parents, members of both Houses of Parliament, local councilors, academics and other public figures who want quality schools. This website includes interesting publications, personal stories, and a section to answer parent questions.
Education Perspectives is a blog by John Mountford who writes about testing and other education issues in England and beyond. The post is also called Ordinary Voices.
Francis Gilbert was educated at Sussex University, Cambridge University and completed an MA in Creative Writing at the University Of East Anglia, studying under Malcolm Bradbury and Rose Tremain. He published Working The System — How To Get The Very Best State Education For Your Child in 2009 and more recently has published a series of study guides. There is a lot here about publishing books, English literature and schools. Also check out his blog!
Let's Think is a classroom teaching approach that has its roots in Cognitive Acceleration, first developed in the 1980′s at King's College, London by Michael Shayer and Philip Adey. This program uses Piagetian and Vygotsky research and focuses on questioning, collaborative work, problem solving, independent learning, metacognition and challenge. I need to explore this website more, but it is full of interesting suggestions that might be helpful for parents and teachers.
Local Schools Network provides a variety of current articles describing school issues, including discussions about the school reforms taking place in England. Learn about schools and academies (like our charter schools). While this is a critical blog for those living there, it is also valuable for Americans and those in other countries to understand. It is important to compare our countries to the kinds of reforms taking place and the reactions of the parents and educators to those reforms. Looking at similarities and differences is enlightening.
Ordinary Voices is a website dealing with the governance and strategic planning of England's education system. Educator John Mountford is behind the website which reveals problems with education in England. The difficulties found in the education there mirror the problematic reforms involving America's education system.
Othmar's Trombone is a blog by a U.K. English teacher discussing many education topics including a glossary of U.K. education words.
Roger Titcombe's Learning Matters Describes what's happening in England's schools and is a complementary blog to Roger's book listed below. Many fine topics about the problems facing schools in England and you will see similarities to schools in other countries.
The Tiger Chronicle is an interesting website for homeschool parents and regular teachers too. Many thoughts and ideas are here for lesson planning. I think it is from England. I like the "Mum's Learning Page."
Working Families has news and events, blogs, and more dealing with "working families in the UK's leading work-life balance organisation." It has a section concerning support for parents whose children have disabilities and how employers can support employees with childcare needs.

Wedding dress is necessary to complete the image of the bride. Often, hairstyle can be chosen even more problematically than a dress. Consider the most current wedding hairstyles 2019 in this article.
Wedding hairstyles 2019: stylish trends
Weaving is actually not the first season. Indeed, it is both elegant and beautiful, and modern. This style is suitable for most dresses. Usually weaving is done on long or medium hair, but if you find a suitable hairpiece in color, then this model is suitable for a bride with short hair.
In this wedding season, brides should decorate their hair with large flowers, and the weave itself must be asymmetrical, with a slight slant to the side.
Still, traditional accessories are actual: brooches, rhinestones, shiny hairpins, rims. It all depends on the wedding dress style.
You will also like:
Below are photos of the wedding hairstyles 2019 for long hair.
This season ringlets are at the peak of relevance. Most of all, this elegant option is suitable for refined dresses with an open back.
Such wedding hairstyles have one more indisputable advantage, the simplicity of creation. You can do it yourself, without the help of a hairdresser. It is enough only to be stocked with styling means.
Wedding hairstyles 2019: hairstyles for a wedding on medium and short hair
Girls with short curls often fall into a panic. And there are not so many possibilities to create an original structure on your head. In this case, overhead strands come to the rescue.
Artificial strands are in wedding hairstyles 2019 hairstyle trends. From accessories, you can choose as jewelry and real flowers. If the dress style allows, then the hairdo can be with a veil.
Moreover, on a short haircut, these models can look even more advantageous than on long ones.
A flowing long dress in the forest nymph style is best suited for a low, slightly disheveled bunch. It will help to emphasize the touching and romantic character of your outfit. And vice versa, if you chose a dress with a corset with a puffy skirt, then it would be more appropriate to look at a tall smooth beam.
Wedding hairstyles 2019: fashion trends
Options of hairstyles with the veil are very diverse in 2019. The bundle perfectly fits with the veil. In this case, several variants of its fastening are possible. For example, for a high hairstyle, this accessory is attached from below, and for a low one from above.
An excellent accessory for the wedding hairstyles 2019 is also a diadem or a scallop. And if you decorate a bunch with a live flower, then this will further emphasize your femininity.
Loose curls are ideal for brides who prefer naturalness in everything. An ideal addition to this option will be a light makeup.

Last week Pete Wilson reported on an insight he had while up in my part of the world, so even though this is shorter, I kinda had to include it here!! Click here to read at Pete's blog where this was titled, A Breath of Fresh Air.
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 16 Rejoice always, 17 pray continually, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
A couple months ago I was in Toronto, Canada to speak at a conference. The driver who picked me up from the airport was a middle aged man named Lucas. He was from the Philippines. It's funny how you can learn so much about a guy by just spending a few minutes in a car with him.
In route to the arena we began talking about life and family. He had four children, but was the youngest of 11 brothers and sisters himself. He spoke a little bit about how he made it to Toronto and how much he loved living in Canada.
During the commute we hit a stretch of road where traffic almost came to a complete stop. As we got closer to the bottleneck I realized it was a construction project. While in the middle of small talk with Lucas I couldn't help but think…. "Stupid traffic. Stupid construction. Will they ever finish all these projects." However, as we drove through the construction Lucas chimed in with…"Sure is wonderful that the government here has the resources to fix up the roads like this. In the Philippines we didn't have these kind of resources and the roads are virtually impassable throughout most of the country."
This is just one of the many scenarios God has used in my life recently to remind me that gratitude really is a choice.
Gratitude is not based on how good your situation is but on how good you see your situation to be.
That's why someone with half of what you have can be so much more thankful than you.
It is simply true that the person who has chosen to make gratitude his or her mind-set and lifestyle can view anything–anything–anything through the eyes of thankfulness. The whole world looks different when we do. And a grateful man or woman will be a breath of fresh air in a world contaminated by bitterness, cynicism, and discontentment.
~Pete Wilson
And now here's an exclusive bonus item that appeared exactly a year ago at Thinking Out Loud. You may have noticed that the link to Pete Wilson's article today begins with "Without Wax." Here's the 411 on the blog's original name which doesn't appear there anymore:
The word sincere comes from the Latin phrase sine cera,which means without wax. The phrase comes from a practice where people would hide the cracks in cheap pottery with wax in order to pass the pottery off as being worth more than it actually was. Quality products were often stamped with the words sine cera to show that it had not been doctored, that it was in fact authentic.
I can't think of a better name for a blog that is, above all, authentic and transparent. If Pete Wilson is not in your blog reading routine, check out the pastor of Nashville's Cross Point Church's blog.

The period I'm covering in this blog is characterised by the conflict between the Guelphs and the Ghibellines. These were essentially two political parties with, broadly speaking, the Ghibellines favouring Imperial control of Italy with the Guelphs opposing it. Many Guelphs saw the leadership of the Papacy as the best way of removing Imperial interference although once the Angevins took control of the Regno* they were increasingly seen as being more vital in opposing the Emperor than the Pope was.
In many cases, a city or families within a city chose the allegience of one party because their political opponents had opted to support another. When Henry VII made his journey to Rome, he found that the old rivalries having survived the previous 4 decades of minimal Imperial interference. He began by trying to treat each party equally but the Guelphs resisted him more and more, leading to open conflict.
*"the Kingdom" - Southern Italy and, at first, Sicily. More on this another time.
These are some of my Ghibelline cavalry - again 15mm Mirliton figures.
The majority are Sienese, with coats of arms taken from this book:
Montaperti . Where information on heraldry is available, I try to use it as much as possible, rather than relying on my imagination! This has led to spending too much on books just for a couple of nice pictures, plus many hours scouring the web. I like handpainting the shields although many are available as cut out and glue paper versions from Mirliton. Most of my flags are homemade although some nice ready made ones are available from various sources to download or buy. One method I have used is to paint a much larger version and scan it in to a computer, printing at a smaller size. This takes a bit of playing around until you are happy with the detail, but it can help with some of the fiddly details as well as making sure that the reverse is a correct reversed copy of the other side.
The red flag with white cross is that of one of the terzi of Siena - these are the three main areas into which Siena was divided at the time. The white and black flag is the banner of Siena. The flag with the leopard is that of the Ghibelline cavalry at Montaperti.
The leading knights are Florentine exiles, carrying the original colours of the flag which became associated with the Ghibellines. The centre one is Farinata degli Uberti, placed by Dante in the Sixth circle of the Inferno. He was excommunicated, after his death, for heresy - supposedly having denied the doctrine of life after death. He had been a leading Ghibelline in Florence and was one of the leaders at Montaperti "The rout and massacre
Which stained the stream of the Arbia red"
(Inferno, Canto X).
After Florence's defeat, the neighbouring Ghibelline states wanted to raze Florence but Farinata opposed them, putting loyalty to his city above his party allegience.

Bar Mitzvah in Jerusalem
The big day has finally arrived. The big 1-3. The family crowds into minibuses that were rented specially for the occasion and heads off to the Western Wall with anticipation and excitement in the air. Then, before you have a chance to return your white satin kippah, it's over. In the blink of an eye, children have turned into adults, and families turn to head back.
But before your family's celebrations become 'just another' memory of 'just another' trip to Israel, let our Old City Bar Mitzvah Tour and Celebration expand and enhance your family's experience of this momentous rite of passage.
Located next to the expansive plaza of the Western Wall is the Western Wall Heritage Foundation. More than a boring history lesson, this experiential historical center brings to life the ancient footsteps of the Jewish people. Their range of touring options - from the interactive exhibitions of its Generations Center to the the underground tunnels beneath the Wall - offer new insights into the history of the people and places of the Old City and Jerusalem, from Abraham to the 1967 reunification of Jerusalem following the Six Day War.
The 'Hall of Light' is a unique sound and light display that recounts the story of Rabbi Yisrael HaLevi who yearned to reach Jerusalem all his life but perished in the Holocaust. According to folktales, paratroopers fighting to recapture Jerusalem in 1967 were inspired by Rabbi HaLevi's words and cited them as a driving force in their efforts.
These and other supplemental experiences are designed to enhance your family's Bar Mitzvah visit to the Western Wall. A tunnel tour, in the ancient bedrock unearthed beneath the plaza, reveals archeological explorations about how ancient Jews lived in the Old City. A small prayer room exposed during the excavations is believed to be the closest place to the Holy of Holies from the ancient Temple. The tunnel tour begins next to the Wall plaza and ends in the Muslim Quarter near the Via Dolorosa. It is an hour and a half of exciting revelations and findings, one that your family will never forget.
And if you're looking for a more adventurous experience, take a ride on Jerusalem's Time Elevator, located in the nearby city center and adjacent to the lively shopping and restaurants of the Ben Yehuda pedestrian mall. Travel back in time 3,000 years as actor Haim Topol leads you through the winding streets of Jerusalem past and present. On the way you'll meet Biblical figures like King Solomon, who built the First Temple, Zedekiah, the last king of Judah before the Babylonian Exile, Jeremiah the Prophet, and King Herod the Great; and Jerusalem characters who impacted the city over the years. Bar Mitzvah celebrants will receive a "Time Travelers" certificate signed by Gemaryahu Ben Shafan from the book of Jeremiah, who was a royal scribe, and by Ezekial Ibn Negev.
A world of meaningful and unique opportunities await you and your family in Jerusalem. And as you set out to plan your celebration, we are here to help you every step of the way. From preparation to production, we never lose sight of the significance and joy that shines over and through momentous rite of passage. It's the stuff that memories are made of.
Contact us to get started. We are happy to receive your questions and inquiries. And look forward to hearing from you!

Comment on Court placing itself above the community? by Fred the Philistine.
The Indigenous do not have to be tried by white man's law, they can be tried by their own people, but choose ours, as apparently the sentence is less severe.
On the other hand, they better start learning not to break white man's laws.
Recent Comments by Fred the Philistine
First Nations want a 'Voice' enshrined in the constitution
To walk together and be heard, the Indigenous need to start taking some pride in themselves, taking responsibility and stop blaming everyone else. Show some pride in yourselves and you will soon earn the respect that you so much desire.
Indigenous living in remote areas can do a lot for themselves, by generating income from themselves, e.g. working their land like the white man.
Councillor fumes over power station job losses
Anything that saves money, go for it.
Lambley, Gunner slugging it out
Ms Lambley was quite correct in what she said, that the Budget was impressive and mature.
We do not need any more funds spent on Alice Springs. Let's stop being ostriches, pull our heads out of the sand and use what we have got.
We have everything.
We need to stop the spending, not only here in Alice but in the whole NT and start reining our debt in. The NT has had it too good for to long.
The Indigenous need to stop winghing and start working together with white man. Do the Indigenous need to work for the dole, if not why not!
Making the CBD vibrant, again: Detail, please.
Oops, forgot to mention about the greedy landlords. Maybe they can pull their heads in with the rents.
Making the CBD vibrant, again: Detail, please.
@ Evelyn: Have you not yet realised that this town is only a social security town, heavily reliant on government monies? If that slows down everything does. Alice Springs has had its hay days. It's time the Northern Territory pulled its head in like all of the other states of Australia and learn to stand on their own two feet.
The only way you are going to get the CBD vibrant again is for us to have industry. No industry, no jobs.
If you take out all of the departments dedicated for the indigenous, the whole town would look pretty sick.
We Need Industry.

Things are clearly not better for Courtney Stodden and her estranged mom, Krista Keller. The two appeared together on The Mother/Daughter Experiment, attempting to fix their relationship, but as news of Courtney's pregnancy broke over the weekend (exclusively by Reality Tea), it's crystal clear that therapy didn't help these two.
Krista reacted to the pregnancy news (which she learned via the media) with an interview. She shared, "If it wasn't for media I would not get to know the news about my daughter's pregnancy This will make grandchild number five. If she is happy, I am happy for her. It would be nice to experience this with her but as it still stands her and I are still not speaking. I did not even hear from her on Mother's Day. I was blessed to be able to celebrate it with my other two girls. Courtney is still missing from our family. I pray for her everyday."

Pivoting after plot twists with Carrie Colbert, Mom, Color-Full Influencer and Venture Capitalist
Blogger, influencer and venture capitalist Carrie Colbert had it all. And then she got pregnant. At 40. (And not exactly on purpose.) A year later, she found herself raising her daughter on her own, moving out of a flooded home and forging a new path - one that would NOT include a male counterpart, she swore. It makes sense that at the precise moment she decided to write off men entirely, she found the one. On this episode of Look Ma' No Hands, Carrie makes a BIG announcement and tells us all about what her career looks like today with one almost-3-year-old in tow, a FIANCÉ (yes, she's engaged!) and an unexpected quarantine. If anyone knows how to pivot, it's Carrie, so if you've found yourself wandering in the unknown during this uncertain time, or if you've ever needed a reminder that life is what happens while you're busy making other plans, you'll love what she has to say. Follow Carrie on Insta @carriec.

Recovering our sense of self and finding the voice within with Mental Health Coach Brandi Lea
You are more than who you love and what you choose to work on.

"We are naturally wired for happiness," Carla White, founder of The Gratitude App, on the effects of "flight or fight" mode, how to lower our cortisol levels and having more joy in our lives
Many years ago, Carla White found herself overweight, drinking heavily and feeling apathetic about her life. Her journey to more happiness led her to create The Gratitude App (highlighted by Oprah and Entrepreneur Magazine) which became a tool I used in my own spiritual awakening many years ago. In this episode, she shares what she knows about the brain, why we're actually wired for happiness and how to create more of it in our lives in very simple, concrete ways.

Turning Mistakes into Confetti and starting where you are with Maghon Taylor of All She Wrote Notes
There is so much about this time that has been so challenging, but there's also so much it's brought me that I would never want to give back. My recent guest, Maghon Taylor, can probably relate. Many years ago, Maghon was at one of the lowest points in her life, newly married to an abusive spouse and an entire country away from her family. She found her way home, found her own light after believing it was lost forever and now she shines it on others through her very presence as well as her hand lettering business, @allshewrotenotes. I can't wait for you to hear her story and feel her sparkle today - her episode is at the link in my profile and I think it's what all of us can use on this full-moon-in-quarantine-kind-of-day. Maghon, thank you for sharing your light with all of us and for showing us how the hardest times in our life can be yield the most beautiful ones.

Death, money and what it really means to be human with author + photographer Michelle Gardella
Several years ago, nationally-renowned photographer Michelle Gardella left her life behind to spend 2.5 years traveling the US in an Airstream with her family. It wouldn't be the last time she lit a match to burn down what no longer served her; she also walked away from a rather successful instagram presence to separate from what wasn't working for her. None of us has been through a pandemic-induced quarantine before, but in my mind, Michelle has come the closest. In this episode, I ask her all of my questions about how it feels to let go of so much all at once and what she wants to let go of in the current storm we're all facing.

Organized chaos + life one hour at a time with Megan Birkel of Willow Crowns
On March 10th, I caught up with Megan Birkel on the #1 most-listened to episode of "Look Ma' No Hands." We discussed how she was cultivating a life she loved - running a successful hair accessories business and a pretty darn happy home. Her attitude was pure (and contagious) gratitude. I have been dying to catch up with Megan to hear how she's doing, coping and managing it all amidst our current pandemic (she's still running Willow Crowns out of her kitchen with two girls at home) and I wasn't surprised to hear that while she's certainly in the thick of it, she's taking things away from this crisis that have already left her forever (and very positively) changed. Have a listen to this episode to hear what Megan will be taking with her once this storm is over, and what she'll be leaving behind.

Boosting your overall health in the age of Coronavirus with Michael Bischoff, President of Glaxon
Is all of that Melatonin really good for you? What about Vitamin C? How is stress really affecting our immune system and where do we even begin in trying to regulate it during uncertain times? Where do we start when it comes to supplementing and maintaining our overall health in the age of Coronavirus? There's nothing like a pandemic to prompt us to take a deeper look at how we care for ourselves each day, whether by the food we feed ourselves, the regimens we maintain or the supplements we take. The moment I found out about the seriousness of the Coronavirus, I started making major changes to support myself both physically and emotionally in an uncertain time (we Roses now have geriatric bedtimes, rise with the sun AND take a whole bunch of supplements that I can't wait to tell you about in this episode.) There's a lot of information going around about what we "should" be doing to maintain strong overall health in these uncertain times. That's why I asked my friend Michael Bischoff to join me and answer some of our questions and help us understand what's really important when it comes to getting and maintaining a strong immune system and nervous system. Michael Bischoff is the president and founder of Glaxon, a supplement and sports nutrition company whose goals are to empower you physically, mentally and spiritually. In today's episode of "Look Ma' No Hands", Michael joins me to discuss a proactive approach to overall health and wellbeing in the age of Coronavirus, and why it's more important now than ever.

Wisdom for Strong Marriage after Children with Rabbi David Lyon of Congregation Beth Israel
When my husband and I got married, we received three pre-marital counseling sessions from one of the Rabbi's who married us. After we had our first daughter, I always wondered what it would be like to go in for the "update": how do we take all the great guidance we receive before marriage and put it to use after kids are in the picture? In this episode, I finally get to ask all the questions I've had to Rabbi David Lyon of Congregation Beth Israel. His insight is like a warm blanket for the soul, and whether you have children or are just newly quarantined with your spouse, I think you'll find something really useful in what he has to say.

The best answer you've ever heard to the Stay-at-home vs. Working Mom debate
I hate admitting it, but the question of whether to work or stay at home once I became a mother plagued me not just once, but after each one of my children were born. Each postpartum period, I fell victim to the ruthless debates that ensue over the subject and likely tortured myself a little over my "choice." Randi's take on this subject is the best one I've ever heard, and I hope it sets you free a little bit if this is something you've had difficulty with.

"The Sex Talk: Part Two" with Meryl Cohen, Sex Therapist at Revive Therapy
In my last Sex Talk with Dr. Emily Jamea of Revive Therapy, we discussed all the ins and outs (eh hem) of having a healthy sex life postpartum and what that really looks like. In this episode, I'm asking a different question of Dr. Jamea's colleague, Dr. Meryl Cohen: how do we talk to our children about sex? Meryl Cohen is the author of "Why is this Sex Book Different from all other Sex Books?" and I think you'll find her commentary on how we introduce these kinds of conversations to our children fascinating. We also dive into a discussion about gender identity and more that you don't want to miss!

Radical Self-Care with CEO of The Black Sheep Agency + Mother of Two, Aimee Woodall
I expected to talk about "cramming it all in" when I greeted Aimee Woodall for our interview, but instead our conversation evolved into a heartfelt chat about self-care, honoring our time and living a full yet un-frazzled life. I was so refreshed by Aimee's daily routine, perspective and workplace implementations such as an office concierge that helps her employees with daily tasks like dry-cleaning so they can actually focus on their work AND enjoy their time off on the weekends. Aimee founded The Black Sheep Agency, an Inc.com Best Place to Work and local brand strategy and creative agency that breaks barriers and activates people around causes that truly matter. She does all of this while raising two little ones (one of whom made an early and extremely emotional entrance that she discusses in this podcast) and I know you'll be nodding along with so much of what she has to say.

Getting Organized from the Inside Out with Ellen Cooley, personal organizer and founder of Southern Sequence
In this episode of "Look Ma', No Hands", personal organizer Ellen Cooley confirms what I've long suspected: our outside "mess" or lack thereof is a reflection of whatever we have going on inside of us (not sure what that says about my vehicle, which could certainly qualify me for an episode of "Hoarders: Buried Alive.") Clutter can often stem from chaos, which obviously includes the chaos of raising little ones. How can we stay tidy with tinies? Ellen answers all of our questions and speaks to the way organization has helped her keep her own anxiety under control is this conversation you don't want to miss.

Quitting perfectionism and why trying to be good at everything is holding us back with Denise Hamilton, founder of Watch Her Work
What are the core traits that make someone successful? I'll give you a hint: it's not about being perfect at everything. It's not about being all things to all people, all the time. "We're built with a set of gifts," explains Denise Hamilton. "You are not designed to impact the world through your weaknesses. You're designed to impact the world through your strengths." Forget editing and filtering your favorite snaps and think about how you filter what you see on social media. Why? Because our self-worth, ability to "start" the projects we've been dreaming of and embrace who we are as parents and people depends on it. Most of us can only do a few things really well, so why are we suddenly so hung up on doing everything perfectly? The energy we're putting in to firing on all cylinders in every area of life is draining us and causing burnout in epic proportions. Not only that, but we're expecting the same of our spouses and others around us in a way that's detrimental to our happiness and mental health. But alas, there is oh-so-much hope. Hear it, listen to it and feel it in this latest episode of LMNH with the one and only Denise Hamilton, founder of Watch Her Work (www.watcherwork.com.) Denise has been featured on NPR, Forbes, FOX, Huffington Post, CBS, NBC and most recently as the host of "Project Comeback" on Lifetime. She has been featured in Huffington Post, Ebony Magazine, Xconomy, Black Enterprise, and the Houston Business Journal. She was named one of the 41 Most Fascinating People in Houston by the Houston Chronicle and Woman Who Means Business by the Houston Business Journal. She was named one the 41 Most Fascinating People in Houston by the Houston Chronicle and one of Houston's Most Influential Women by Houston Woman Magazine. Denise believes that you shouldn't have to have powerful friends to have powerful information. She is committed to making sure that the information needed for women to build a business, climb the corporate ladder, and get on boards is available to every woman and the men that support them. At WatchHerWork, Her life is your lesson. "Denise has been one of the best reviewed speakers of all time. We have female employees all over the world. She was able to engage them at all levels. She is a master at what she does." - Merlex Harris, IBM

How having her own baby changed one OBGYNs perspective for life

Finding true mom support in online communities and why it's harder than you thought it would be
Facebook groups assembled to "support" moms in all stages of motherhood might appear to be communities of support, but underneath the surface, they can be a hotbed for "mom shaming", intense criticism and online bullying. Amanda Ducach decided to do something when she started "Social Mama App", a "match.com for moms" that helps you find your mom soulmates in a supportive online forum. Listen to hear from both Amanda and Amanda Vlastas of West University Moms on how the app is changing the game when it comes to friendship postpartum.

"I'm a different person after each kid I have." - Basya Benshushan. mother of 4, on the evolution of the mother
"Don't look back: you're not going that way." - Wayne Dyer. Basya Benshushan helps me piece together something I haven't understood until now: I'm not going back to who I was before, not even the person I was after I gave birth to my first daughter, Selma. There is no roadmap in my past for my future. With each child I bear, I grow more into who I am meant to be, and sometimes, I'm surprised by who she is. It's scary being in foreign territory with yourself. And yet, Basya's bravery has inspired my own and I hope you'll listen to this mother of four and CEO of digital marketing agency Pink Cilantro on what it means to evolve openheartedly and stay spiritually grounded in motherhood and beyond.

Protecting your emotional bandwidth with Megan of Willow Crowns
Self-care is so much more than just getting a mani/pedi or doing an at-home facial. Self-care is about choices, prioritizing your needs and, as Megan of Willow Crowns puts it, making every decision with the goal of "preserving your emotional bandwidth." We only have so much energy to give to ourselves, our children, and our passions, so it makes sense that being meticulous about how we expend that energy, who we spend time with, and how we choose not to spend our time, makes all the difference in how we feel each day and what our lives look like. I hope you'll tune in to this latest podcast episode where Megan and I discuss the holy grail of taking care of ourselves while caring care of others, how she started her hair accessories business with two kids in tow, and what she knows about success in motherhood, business and life. If being a mom has taught me anything, it's that you can fit what matters into one day with room to spare, so long as you prioritize what matters.

Getting perspective after a life-altering moment as a parent
Chanda Scott's daughter was a perfectly-developing 15-month old when suddenly, everything changed. Chanda came home to find her daughter has an escalating fever and was listless: she could no longer walk, talk or do any of the things that she was capable of just days before. She would later find out that her daughter had contracted Kawasaki disease, also known as mucocutaneous lymph node syndrome, which while extremely rare and treatable, would change their lives forever. In this episode of "Look Ma', No Hands", Chanda tells us how this moment changed her perspective, the way she approaches her business "The Pampered Pickle", and so much more.

Birthing a Mother
I had a 30-hour labor with my firstborn that concluded in a c-section, several months of trauma and some physical agony to follow. I went for the big "VBAC" (Vaginal birth after c-section) with my second birth and now I have a lot to share about the process and what it really means to birth a baby...and a mother. I'm sitting down with the two birth doulas who helped me birth my second daughter Violet to discuss how we can better understand the meaning of birth and the importance of postpartum care for the modern day mama.

I remember seeing Nevenka's debut collection (way back in 2006) and immediately being struck by its beauty. The impression endured and I've keenly followed designer Rosemary Masic's journey since then. Having always wanted to invest in a Nevenka piece, now I finally have with the silk 'end of time' maxi-dress. I've had my eye on the whimsically-printed dress for some time – admittedly it's past season – however the same cut in a dark swallow bird print is available this Winter. It's a supremely flattering cut (and a little risqué due to the low neckline) and it's a bonus that the piece is Australian made as well as designed. Can't wait to wear it and show you come spring time.
Reasons to shop Nevenka: For feminine designs, local manufacturing and because it's their flagship boutique's second birthday today (50% off all week, plus we've been promised tea and cake).
You can follow me on my quest to only buy local labels for the next year and learn more about the Australian Fashion Project by clicking here.

20′ Voyager
About the 20 ft Voyager
Built in the traditional style of the famous Maine Grand Lake Stream canoes, only larger, the Voyager was designed by Maine Guide Mick Fahey to carry heavy loads on large and windy lakes. Mick had a home and camps in Chesunook Village. The village is on the shores of Chesuncook Lake, a large lake in northern Maine, which has not had road access for 75 years! It once had a population of several hundred people but when Mick and his wife Eunice were there, the population was about 8! All supplies for the village were brought up the lake by boat so they wanted a boat design that they could depend upon. More than just a large canoe with a square transom, the stern rises and tapers so the transom does not create a lot of drag, especially at low power or when using a paddle or pole.
The standard Voyager is built for rugged use with heavy 3/8″ ribs, 3/16″ planking, half ribs, and a heavy inside keelson and outside keel. Spray rails help knock down heavy waves and keep the boat dry. Spruce rails, ash transom, deck, thwarts and stern seat are used on the basic model.
Some of the custom additions that have been added to the basic Voyagers are seen above, with options including but not limited to mahogany trim, floor racks, extended decks, forward storage compartments, rod and oar holders, a fan stern seat, and a seating well for passengers. Boat trailers and canvas covers can be ordered for the Voyager. I do not believe I've built the same Voyager twice. Every boat has had special options just for that customer and its not uncommon for the final cost to be in the range of 14 to 16 thousand dollars.

Animals and human beings have a common fundamental right: that is the right to be treated with respect as an individual with inherent value. This right is respected all over the world. Supreme Court of India has also realised the fact that animals cant be treated otherwise.
The court through its various judgements has ordered to put an end to the suffering of animals. It has been laid down in various judgements including People for Ethical Treatment Vs Union of India , Shri.Ajay Madhusudan Marathe Vs New Sarvodaya CHS Ltd , Ozair Hussain Vs Union of India , State of U.P Vs Mustakeem and Ors , Gauri Maaulekhi Vs Union of India and Ors, Nair, N.R and Ors Vs Union of India, Animals Welfare Board of India vs A Nagaraja and Ors. Both the Indian Judicial system as well as Indian legislature are of the opinion that animal rights and human rights go hand in hand and there should be respect for all the species of the world.
Not to forget about Shaktiman horse who was attacked by a BJP MLA. When the incident took place it created a huge media uproar. Indian news channels did not telecast any news but that of Shaktiman.
But alas the case is different with Kashmiris. Over the past several weeks, Kashmir is burning and so far 51 lives have been consumed. No one speaks for Kashmiris. Supreme Court and all other courts are altogether silent on the issue. Arent the lives of Kashmiris important? Are animals more important than Kashmiris? It seems quite funny that Indian civil society is very much concerned about the meat of animals but the lives of Kashmiris are not important for Indian civil society. More than two thousand are injured, dozens have lost their eye-sight. And there is no one to speak for us.
Indian Judiciary headed by a Chief Justice from our state has maintained a deafening silence on the issue.
When we compare animal life and the life of a Kashmiri, we in Kashmir clearly feel how biased is the judicial system and civil society of India. Is this the way to address the issue of alienation in Kashmir?
Indian mainstream instead of showing sympathy with Kashmiris passed the buck to Pakistan saying the neighbouring country was instigating violence in Kashmir. Burhan Wani aftermath is an example of how Indian Judiciary and the mainstream media align in defence of what they believe is the national interest.
If such incident takes place in any other state of India, human right and civil society groups would have approached the state human rights commission but we cant approach them also. Our state has a human rights commission without members, without a chairperson. Last time when SHRC gave a landmark judgement on unmarked graves, the copy of the judgement was literally thrown in the dustbin.
The death of protestors has also been brushed aside, with the media focusing almost exclusively on the role of Pakistan and Hafiz Saeed. But even if the protests were instigated by Pakistan, so to say, did unarmed protestors have to be met with bullets? Can the killing of protestors be justified? If Kashmir is indeed an integral part of India, where in India are protestors shot at and killed in this manner? Does being integral mean to have two different approaches as per the states own convenience and prejudices.
If it werent for social media, news of innocent young men getting killed might have never made it to the outside world. The government of course was quick to impose a communication blackout, particularly on the use of the Internet.
The fact of the matter is India has never treated Kashmiri people as their own and the anger among the people is the consequences of Indias approach towards Kashmiris.
Its high time for the mainstream media to revisit basic journalistic principles and not allow misplaced nationalist sentiment to colour its approach to news. And also the Supreme Court has to pass some landmark judgements as it has done in case of animals to stop human right abuses in the state of Jammu and Kashmir.
Be Part of Quality Journalism
Quality journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce and despite all the hardships we still do it. Our reporters and editors are working overtime in Kashmir and beyond to cover what you care about, break big stories, and expose injustices that can change lives. Today more people are reading Kashmir Observer than ever, but only a handful are paying while advertising revenues are falling fast.

This month's Athlete of the Month is the noon class' own Derek Gartner! He's a big seemeingly quiet guy that you can just tell has a loooot happening under the surface there. He's been keeping busy during his time at CFNH, both kicking ass and getting the top score on the Sergeant Exam. In addition to hearing about Derek nailing the exam in that previous link, there's something else interesting in that article. It links back to two other articles where he was named "cop of the week." Make sure you click on those links and get a good look at both 2010 Derek and 2012 Derek. Amazing changes there, my friend! Now let's find out a little more about Derek who, incidentally, is good at hiding from the cameras…
So, what brought you to CrossFit New Haven?
I have been working out and playing sports my entire life, but a few years ago I overheard some guys at work talking about "CrossFit." When I asked them what CrossFit was, I became really intrigued. For years, I always relied on sports to push me to work harder and obtain higher levels of fitness. Now that I'm all grown up, I don't have a baseball coach or basketball coach screaming at me to work harder. After watching countless YouTube videos of CrossFit workouts, I decided that I wanted to join. But then came the question, "Where should I join?" The commute to Milford seemed a bit too much for me. After several conversations with Mike Defonzo and my idol, Christian Bruckhart, I found out that a CrossFit was opening in New Haven. The three of us signed up and the rest is history.
How long have you been CrossFitting?
I believe August 2010 is when I started.
What do you do out there in the real world?
I am a Police Officer at the New Haven Police Department. I'm being promoted soon (on 2/1) so I may be a Police Sergeant by the time anyone reads this.
Are you Paleo? If so, when in your Crossfitting did you start to switch?
I am Paleo for the most part. I decided to switch in the spring of 2012. I was assigned to a particular Unit at work that involved long hours of very stagnant activity. Although I really enjoyed that particular assignment, it was really tough for me to eat healthy in that environment. I was always grabbing something fast and then back to sitting in the car. So, in the spring of 2012 I decided that I would start incorporating the Paleo diet into my lifestyle. I noticed changes fairly quickly, especially in regards to my performance during the workouts. I had more energy and I was able to sustain a higher output for a longer period of time.
Do you have a favorite lift? Power or Olympic?
Your favorite WOD?
Fight Gone Bad. I probably won't be saying this the next time I see it posted on the whiteboard though…
Favorite Song to do the WOD?
I'm not really picky when it comes to the music. The Beastie Boys aren't a bad selection.
Any changes to brag about?
I got a pretty sweet new jump rope from Rogue Fitness.
You've just dropped a 45 lb. bumper on your foot and you're surrounded by first-graders. What's the first word out of your mouth?
"MOTHERFUCKER." That's one word isn't it?
What are your current goals?
I am currently working towards being half the athlete that Christian Bruckhart, AKA "Mr. RX," is. I'm also working on continuing to be Paleo and I'd like to RX every workout.
Anything else to add?
I would just like to thank all the Coaches at CrossFit New Haven for the hard work they put in on a daily basis. You guys are second to none.

Las Vegas strike would have far-reaching effect
"Levi Smartt" (2018-07-19)
The vertiginous "escalator to heaven" at the main entrance will now have glass safety panels on either side; a two-night stay will no longer be required; a wall blocking the casino off from easy Boardwalk access is being replaced by stairs welcoming foot traffic; the casino will offer more things for kids and families to do; and gamblers of all levels will be welcomed.

Women may not realize it for now that there will come a time that their sexual urges may come to a decrease or worse come to an end. Flagging libido is not new yet there are certain ways to prevent this from happening like buying prescription female libido enhancement or seeking professional help. The only question here is if women are able to talk to someone about their private problems such as female sexual dysfunction or FSD.

With Trusted Traveler, anyone who wanted to forgo long airport security lines would authorize the government to conduct a
background check and take their thumbprint or an iris scan of their
eyes. " Airports would have reserved checkpoints where passengers could present their card, have their fingerprint or iris scan matched to the card's information, and be passed through to the boarding area. Once cleared, they would receive an identification card encrypted with their "biometric ID. This type of prescreening would reduce lengthy lines and let frequent travelers avoid much of the current airport hassle. McMahon, Northwest Airlines Senior Vice President for Customer Service.

Wakatika Ora and the Tribe of Nga Mokai
Wellington charity Consultancy, Advocacy and Research Trust (CART) travels the outlands of New Zealand society bringing hope and change to the long-term unemployed, prisoners and former prisoners, the mentally ill, alienated, disaffected, ostracized, impoverished, homeless and disenfranchised.
Fighting substance abuse demands courage, conviction and cash. I'm stoked to see CART have won an $800,000 grant from the government for an innovative two-year pilot initiative—Wakatika Ora (the canoe of the correct path to health) – to push back on substance addiction. Creativity and innovation have unreasonable power, and CART has built a reputation for thinking different through enlightened policies and strategies.
John Wareham (above right) is a global leadership guru, author of business books and novels, former New Yorker, prison educator. Denis O'Reilly is a social activist, business consultant, patched Black Power life member, community resilience developer, chronicler of life on the edge. Both men are philosophers working at the gritty end of society. Both tough nuts with hearts full of love. They met at a function I hosted in Auckland years ago to launch John's book "How to Break Out of Prison" based on his experiences teaching communication skills to felons at New York's Rikers Island Prison.
Under the programme, CART is starting at the community level. The approach is holistic, it levers leadership and it brings new personal development modules. They say "we see drug use as a symptom of deeper underlying causes, many of which are social, so we're intending to innovate with our new personal development modules. If people make personal change then collectively they can change a community. It has been clearly demonstrated that we can't stop supply but we believe we can reduce demand and thus reduce harm."
Great change starts at the edge, the edge of reason, of hope, of dreams in flight. And as J.R.R Tolkien wrote in his popular battle of good and evil: "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost."

Relax on the beach at Big French Key, a lush private island lying in the shadow of Roatan, where you will be free to enjoy the tranquility and beautiful blue waters.
After departing from the pier, you will enjoy a picturesque drive across slender Roatan to French Key dock. You will see idyllic Little French Key and Big French Key beckoning just offshore. A short ride across the turquoise waters in a motorboat takes you to the larger of the private islands, where you will spend several immensely relaxing hours at the beach.
Big French Key hasn't changed enormously since Christopher Columbus explored the surrounding Bay Islands in 1503 and described them as "incredibly green and fertile." While a few buildings are scattered about Big French Key, the nearly 12-acre island remains a lush, beach-rimmed paradise caressed by gentle trade winds.
Upon arrival, you will be treated to a welcome refreshment and be able to go pick out your complimentary beach chair. Life here revolves around the sea, and you are free to enjoy it in whatever way you wish. You might take a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear water, stroll down the beach as the waves gently lap the shore, or do nothing more ambitious than sunbathing in a beach chair.
Included in your program is your choice of an optional 40 minute guided snorkeling experience (equipment is included), or a 15 minute boat tour. Kayaks are also available at no charge for those who would like to paddle around the Bay. For families with children, there is also a babysitter available.
For the less adventurous, palm trees and other tropical foliage provide plenty of shade where you can relax on a lounge chair and read, or listen to island music from the outdoor bar. When hunger strikes, there is also a restaurant, where you may linger over a complimentary lunch buffet that includes ice tea and water. Or you may redeem your 2 drink vouchers for soft drinks, beer or other alcoholic beverages.
After a few hours spent enjoying all Big French Key has to offer, you will retrace your route back to the pier.

There is little systematic evidence on the experience of disabled students in higher education. In this study, equal numbers of disabled and nondisabled students taking courses with the UK Open University were surveyed with regard to their approaches to studying and perceptions of the academic quality of their courses. Students with dyslexia or other specific learning difficulties, students with mental health difficulties and students with fatigue were more likely to exhibit a surface approach and less likely to exhibit organised studying than were nondisabled students. In the first two groups, this was associated with lower ratings of the quality of their courses. Nevertheless, the differences were not large, either in absolute terms or in the proportion of variance in the students' scores that they explained. The impact of disability on students' perceptions of the academic quality of their courses and on their approaches to studying appears to be relatively slight.

Veneers are individually made thin pieces of either ceramic or porcelain that are bonded to the outer side of your teeth. These are an effective treatment to changing your smile dramatically if you have heavy discolouration, medium to large broken tooth structures or small unsatisfactory misalignment in the teeth. These are a lot less invasive than a crown but it does have its limitations. Your dentist will be able to discuss them in detail in relation to how it fits with your existing dentition.
Inlay and onlays are fixed dental restorations that are used similar to crowns but are less invasive. They are cemented permanently onto your teeth and are great for managing heavily damaged teeth as well as cracked tooth. Like other fixed prosthesis, there are different materials available and these are custom made to fit your tooth only; there will be no others like yours in the world. Our dentists will properly assess your condition before providing you with the different options available.

How Technology Can Help Connect SMEs With Talent
By: Meryvn Dinnen, Contributing Writer
Nearly half of all people employed in the UK work for an SME, and yet for businesses of this size hiring can often be a stressful and time consuming task. With so much of the economic recovery likely to be driven by small, growing, dynamic companies it is crucial that they are able to source and hire the right talent.
Earlier in the year at CIPD's HR Software Show Andrew Summer, managing director of monster.co.uk, gave a presentation on HR Technology for SMEs. Our research shows that the favoured routes to market for businesses of this size are through word of mouth, referrals from existing employees and advertising on job boards. Job seekers however use a quite broad range of tools to find their next position.
Roles advertised by SMEs tend to be filled by owner-managers or directors. There is rarely a recruiter or HR specialist dedicated to attracting talent. This inevitably leads to several challenges:
- They don't have much time
- Recruitment will be just one of many jobs they are juggling at the time
- Knowledge of the wider talent market may be weak
- No system for dealing with unsuccessful applications and giving feedback
- Little capacity to invest in a structured interview/assessment process
- Need for cost effective solutions
- Lack of budget for marketing an employer brand
So How Can Technology Help Them?
There are 5 key touchpoints where technology (in one form or another) can connect an SME with a job seeker. The question is how much are SMEs leveraging the possibilities of each technology?
Job Advertisements
Most businesses advertise their roles on a job board like Monster, but how many fully maximise the opportunity? Think like a job seeker – what will they be searching for, and what will arouse their interest. Keep job titles to industry standard (which may not be the same as the terms you use in the business) whilst a specific indication of salary and location can each lead to at least 3 times more applications. Put the key points about the role in the opening paragraph, and keep an eye on word limits – make it long enough to spark their interest but not too long as it could lose their interest. Use the apply online too, it will help you keep track of everyone.
And remember to check your spelling – if you're advertising for a 'sales manger' you're unlikely to get any responses!
Whether a job seeker finds your role through an online search, referral from someone they know or by following a link from your job advertisement, their first interaction with the business will be through your website – quite possibly your careers page. This is your shop window, the place where people want to check you out. They will look for something that gives them insight into what your business does, your values and purpose, and what working there may be like. So it was quite surprising to see research from Hibu that showed 45% of SMEs without a website! If your business is one of those then it's time to change that straight away – talent may be looking elsewhere.
Our research shows that nearly 40% of job seekers now search from a mobile device. Are you ready to accept mobile applications? In the Hibu research only 6% had mobile optimised websites, leading to a poor experience for candidates looking to work for you.. Do you know what your site looks like from a mobile device? Don't just focus on mobile but think mobility too. Where will they be when they come to your site? Most job searching on mobile happens during the morning commute (when there may be no wifi and poor connectivity) and around 10pm, so make any navigation simple without too many steps.
Social Media
Job applicants expect businesses to have a social media presence – 34% of them engage with potential employers through the platforms whilst 1 in 4 say they have a negative opinion of companies who do not use social channels. Social media provides a great way to connect and engage with customers and potential partners as well as job seekers. Use the platforms for dialogue and conversation, not to broadcast messages. Personalise the interactions. The way you use social media can also help give potential candidates an insight to the company culture.
Use of email is so second nature that we may no longer think of it as technology in this situation, but for most businesses it is the main way that they communicate with potential employees. How you go about acknowledging applications, keeping applicants informed, arranging interviews, giving feedback and communicating offers is crucial to a successful outcome and the tone, regularity and content of emails you send will be a major part of that. Keep it friendly, informative and helpful, and always be ready to invite phone contact if someone wants more information. And try to steer clear of using business jargon!
In a competitive market, with limited time and budget, the people you want to hire may well make judgements on your business based on how you interact with them. Technology is a great enabler so make sure you use it effectively to get the best results.

Ed here: Excellent article on the Coen Brothers and their original cinematographer on the occasion of MOMA in NYC.
The Coen Brothers Were Never Better Than with Barry Sonnenfeld
By S.T. VanAirsdale
Tuesday, July 29th 2008
Thank you, Barry Sonnenfeld.
Barry Sonnenfeld is known to tell the story of that day in Texas 25 years ago when he walked onto the set of Blood Simple—the Coen Brothers' debut and his first feature film as a cinematographer—and couldn't turn on the camera. Things seemed to work out OK over the next month and a half—and over the next seven years, in fact, when the trio's work on Blood Simple, Raising Arizona, and Miller's Crossing established each of them in careers that would fork dramatically in the decades to come.
The triptych is the highlight of MOMA's latest installment of "Collaborations in the Collection," an ongoing series that highlights film partnerships. Screening nine films, the program spotlights the Coens' stock players (including John Turturro, Frances McDormand, and Steve Buscemi) and technicians. Few behind the camera, however, had an impact as deep as Sonnenfeld's, whose presence can be felt even in the Coen films he didn't shoot—from the wildly formalist Southwestern sketches undergirding the Roger Deakins–shot No Country for Old Men to the accentuated archetypes recurring over all of the brothers' 13 films.
The native New Yorker met fellow NYU film-school alum Joel Coen at a party in 1982, when he and his brother Ethan had recently completed the script for Blood Simple. Sonnenfeld shot a mock trailer with them to attract investors for the $1.5 million feature. The film would be set in Texas—as likely a place as any to host a jealous husband's passion killing, Joel later acknowledged in the film's production notes, though its status as a right-to-work state meant cheaper labor on a non-union shoot.

Their only unsuccessful movie to my mind was The Ladykillers. Hanks was miscast and it shouldn't have been remade (IMH). The rest I love.

Thanks for this great post on my absolutely favorite filmmakers. To me, Fargo is the absolute pinnacle for modern crime/noir film. Love all their films with the exception of the Ladykillers (completely agree with the other comment).
