To celebrate the final Big Sky novel, Beyond Hope's Valley, I'm reposting the spotlight on Tricia Goyer's leading Amish lady, Marianna Sommer.
After an extended stay in Montana, where Amish traditions are different than in her home state, Marianna Sommer returns to Indiana for two reasons, first to help her brother and his girlfriend prepare for a baby and their wedding. Second, to plan her own wedding to Aaron Zook -- a marriage she's been dreaming about ever since childhood. And yet, although she had missed the idyllic farms and families of her upbringing, Marianna is surprised that Indiana is somehow making her long now for Montana.
As months pass, secrets that were hidden in winter's frozen grasp thaw and take on a life of their own. The truths about a child, about a past relationship, and about God's plans are being revealed. Walking through a valley of questions, Marianna must hold on to hope as she decides where and with whom her heart truly belongs.
Enjoy meeting Marianna!
Marianna Sommer is a petite Amish young woman with light brown hair and grey eyes.
Actor/famous person
Rachel McAdams.
Strengths and weaknesses
Strengths: She's dedicated to her family and the Amish way of life. She has a loving a caring heart. She's great in the kitchen and she has a fun sense of humor and quick wit—which many "Englischers" don't expect.
Weaknesses: She cares about what others think more than she should. She also battles between how she's been raised and what her heart it telling her to be true about God and others.
Your inspiration for the character
Your inspiration for the character
Marianna was inspired by Amish friends of mine. Spending time with them I found them fun, surprising and yet thoughtful, too. Sometimes we think that simple people are boring, but that's not the case with my friends or Marianna either.
Background to the story
Background to the story
Every great novel starts with a bit of fact. This story started with more than that.
A few years ago I was asked if I'd ever consider writing an Amish novel. The truth is, I hadn't. But the first seed of an idea was planted and my mind started to feed and water it. That's how novels usually start.
Later that day, I remembered that my daughter had a friend, Saretta, whose parents were raised Amish. They moved from an Amish community in Indiana to Montana, and that is how we met. I also remember my daughter telling me Ora Jay and Irene lost two daughters in a buggy accident.
Hmmm, I thought. I'd love to hear their story. Maybe someday, if I see them again, I'll ask. The next day, my daughter Leslie and I went out for some mom and daughter time. We went to a bookstore to browse and get coffee. As we looked over the bargain rack guessed who walked in … Saretta. We hadn't seen her for six months at least and there she was. "Saretta," I told her. "I think I'm supposed to talk to your parents—hear their story." "Sure, I'm sure they'd love to talk to you!"
Less than a week later Ora Jay and Irene sat in my living room. They told me about being Amish, about losing their daughters, about their move. They also talked about their faith. They shared what the meant to be Amish. They shared how their faith had grown after moving to Montana. They shared many ways God had changed their lives and their hearts. I listened amazed. Their story added more water—the Living Water—and sunshine to the seed of a novel planted in my hearts. After talking to Ora Jay and Irene, I met many other Amish women from the West Kootenai Community. I was honored as they shared their lives with me.
While this story is still a work of fiction, I've tried to be as true to the lifestyle and faith of this Amish community. As you may know, each Amish community is different, depending on the place and rules of the church. While I may not have gotten everything right, I've tried hard that my words reflect truth. I trust they do.

Do you want to stop worrying about what is for dinner? You can plan freezer meals for a month in less than 15 minutes with the Build a Menu plan I use.
I can show you simple, make ahead freezer meals WITH a shopping list to take to the grocery store. I was so excited to log in to the website to plan my meals and find a new freezer meal section. I was ecstatic once I realized there was one for the Trim Healthy Mama eating plan also! Double win!!
I planned out 16 freezer meals for a month in less than 15 minutes and only spent $147.58!
These were meals that feed my family of 6. Most of them can be cooked in the crockpot also! That made this homeschooling mama super happy!
Want to know how I did it?
Here are some simple steps to knock out a successful freezer cooking session:
Step1: Log in to Build A Menu and Choose Your Store
There are several stores to choose from. You can read my review here to see which stores the menus are created from. The menus are based on ingredients that are in season or on sale for that week.
Step 2: Choose Your Meals
Choose the "Dinner" menu icon. Now choose the freezer meal cooking selection to see a list of make ahead healthy freezer meals. You will want to scroll down to the bottom of the recipe list first and print the "prep guide". This will give you all of the information you need to know about what items need to be prepped before you start preparing your freezer meals for a month. You might have to brown hamburger meat or chop onions and peppers to prepare them for the freezer. The key is that you are dirtying up your dishes only once instead of every day. Love it!
Next, you will want to select the freezer meals for a month recipes that you want to eat. If you are wanting to freeze 16 meals, then select 8 of the recipes and change the quantity to 2. We are making double batches so that the ingredients are simpler and faster to prepare and freeze. If you aren't sure what is required to prepare the freezer meal, then click on the "show recipe" link and it will describe in detail what the procedure for freezing and cooking the meal will be. As you choose meals, the sidebar on the right keeps a running total of the estimated grocery bill you will incur. How great is that?
Now this only covers dinner meals. You will want to go back up the page and choose the "Breakfast" and "Lunch" menus if you need to buy items for those meals. I typically do not freeze items for those, but do add them to my menu so I have an idea what we will be eating for the next week.
I try to do freezer cooking twice a month so that I have a large variety to pick from in our freezer. I love not having to worry about what is for dinner each night. My daughters love to go and "shop" the freezer and pick what is for dinner each morning. They take turns doing so.
Step 3: Print Your Lists
Now you want to go to Step 3 on the Build a Menu website and print your list of meals. This report lists all of the meals you selected. I transfer this list to a white dry erase board I have on my freezer and I erase the meal from the board as I cook them. This way I know what my freezer meal inventory is at all times.
You will want to print the prep list if you haven't already. I usually spend the day I go to the grocery store on prepping everything first. The next day I take the items and put them in the freezer bags or pans. Dividing the task into 2 days is what works for me since I have so many children and other responsibilities to tend to.
The website also lets you drag and drop your recipes into a calendar if you want to plan ahead which days you want to cook each recipe. I don't use this feature myself. I tried it once, but didn't like being tied down to eating a certain thing each day.
I know this sounds like a lot of steps, but I literally had this freezer meals for a month planning done in 15 minutes with my list ready for the grocery store.
Tips for a Smooth Freezer Cooking Day
Take out your Prep List and start prepping all items that need something done to them. For example, any meat that needs to be cooked ahead of time or vegetables chopped.
Enlist all family members that are old enough to help. Assign tasks for each one and divide and conquer!
Gather all of your supplies:
- Large Ziplock Freezer Bags
- Black Sharpie
- Large Bowl
- Small sandwich bags
- Freezer Foil Pans
- Recipes
Choose the first recipe that you are going to prepare. Remember you are doubling it, so grab all of the ingredients you need for that recipe x 2.
Next, take your sharpie and Label the bag with the recipe name and the date. If you are a Trim Healthy Mama, I put a big "S", "E", or "FP" on the bag too so I know what meal type it is.
You can choose whether to put the ingredients in a tin foil pan or in freezer bags. I put most of mine in freezer bags unless the recipe needs to be layered like a pizza or lasagna. In that instance, I will use the pans. If you are using freezer bags, fold the mouth of two large freezer bags down an inch or so and place both bags in the bowl. This will make cleanup a lot easier!
Now you just dump all of the ingredients in the bags. Seal the bag up and make sure to get all of the air out while laying it as flat as possible. This will help when stacking your meals in the freezer.
It's a lot of hard work for one day, but look at that full freezer full of meals! Preparing freezer meals for a month is well worth it. Now you can sit back and relax and know what is for dinner every night!

Escalating election fever in Ottawa is producing a cold, clammy feeling in Halifax for supporters of a proposed $159 million convention centre in the Nova Scotia capital.
|• Builders want province out of paving
|• Feds close to convention centre call
|• N.S. pressured to keep reading program
The government of Stephen Harper has been deliberating since before Christmas about whether to contribute $46 million to the convention centre project. The province and the City of Halifax have already committed to contributing $56 million apiece, contingent on the federal participation.
The convention centre is part of a larger $550 million proposal that also includes an office tower and hotel. Government funds would only be used in building the convention centre.
The developer, Rank Inc., has guaranteed the price of the project until April 15, a date that could fall squarely in the middle of a federal election campaign should the Harper government fall on next week's federal budget. One three-month extension from the initial January deadline has already been granted to allow more time for a decision to be made.
Proponents of the project are now ramping up pressure, fearing that if there is an election, a decision on the convention centre will not come until after a new parliament has been elected and a cabinet appointed.
Halifax Mayor Peter Kelly said the city is sending correspondence to Ottawa highlighting the time crunch. "We are hoping there is some sensitivity to the timing issue," said Kelly.
Kelly also took the opportunity to raise the matter with Peter MacKay, minister of national defence and the regional minister for Nova Scotia, during last months Canada Games in Halifax.
"He understood [the date] was an issue, but emphasized that it was not his decision alone, but a Cabinet decision," said Kelly.
Bill Estabrooks, minister of transportation and infrastructure renewal for Nova Scotia, met with infrastucture minister Chuck Strahl on March 8, the day before Speaker Peter Milliken delivered his two landmark rulings that have further heightened election speculation.
Steven Smith, communications officer at Nova Scotia's Department of Transportation and Infrastructure Renewal, responding by email on behalf of Estabrooks, wrote that during the meeting Estabrooks emphasized the importance that the province places on the convention centre, but that Strahl made no commitment.
Strahl's Press Secretary, John Babcock, wrote in an email: "Our government is still doing our due diligence regarding this decision and has not committed to any timelines."
Two of three local Members of Parliament, however, assert that enough time has passed. Both Michael Savage, Liberal member for Dartmouth-Cole Harbour, and Geoff Regan, Liberal member for Halifax West, support the building of a convention centre and think that the Harper government must make a decision.
"If the federal government is supportive of the idea, then it should make an announcement. It's holding up the process. . . . They have plenty of time to make an announcement before an election," said Savage.
"The Harper regime has been looking at this for some time. They have enough time to make a decision and have had enough time already," said Regan.
Megan Leslie, NDP member for Halifax did not respond to a request to comment on this story.
Estabrooks came under fire earlier in the year for applying to use Build Canada Fund money. The Fund has traditionally been used for infrastructure, such as roads and bridges. The application raised fears in the province that road repairs would be shelved in favour of the convention centre.

Increase Sales Through Insurance Appointment Setting
It's unfortunate that so many insurance agencies do not understand the importance of insurance appointment setting with prospective clients. Prospects are just that; they are prospective clients. Without a follow up appointment being set, they will never become actual clients. If you are looking to increase insurance sales and gain more clients, it is essential that you are persistent in contacting and setting up appointments with your prospects.
The Facts
The facts on sales are enough to get any insurance agent into action. Nearly 50% of people looking for more business will not follow up with an initial contact. Those who contact potential clients a second time make up only 25%. It continues to decline, with only about 10% of salespeople who will contact an individual more than three times. On the flip side, it is the salespeople who are persistent with insurance appointment setting and follow up calls who get the business. Approximately 2% of sales are made with the second contact, on down to about 80% of sales made after a fifth contact.
Getting Started
To get started, you need to have a marketing technique in place. Prospective clients can reach you through a proper SEO campaign, social media marketing, and more. Once you are able to reach those prospective clients initially, it is essential to have a plan in place that will help you to reach out to them a second, third, or fourth time in order to get their business.
As the facts show, insurance appointment setting and following up with prospects is essential to the success of your insurance company. Contact a professional to learn more about how to implement a marketing campaign that will help you find those prospects.

Hey there!
Welcome to the United States. With nine time zones, 50 states, and some of the most diverse geography in the world, doing business here isn't a 'one-size-fits-all' exercise. It's wise to choose a region to tackle first, and then scale up from there.
Getting to the United States
Air New Zealand operates direct flights from Auckland to Los Angeles, San Francisco and Houston with flying times of around 12 hours. To get to New York (and most other places in the United States), you'll have to stop somewhere on the way.
When to visit
The best time to visit really depends on where you're going. Some areas can get oppressively hot during summer (particularly in the south). Spring and autumn are usually fine but be aware that tornado season arrives in the Midwest between April and June. Hurricanes are a feature of early summer along the southern East Coast and the Gulf of Mexico coast.
It's a good idea to familiarise yourself with the United State's national holidays, as some businesses may close during these times.
Before you go, check Safe Travel for travel advisories on the United States.
Cultural tips
Doing business in the United States is not hugely different from other Western countries, but there are a few things to bear in mind.
- This is not the place for modesty – sell yourself hard and provide proven results wherever possible.
- Be prepared for breakfast meetings – working days are longer than you may be used to.
- Americans often feel uncomfortable with silence – perfect your small-talking skills and go armed with conversation-starters.
- Here, more than anywhere else, 'time is money', so get to the point quickly and speak directly.
Working in-market
Getting the most out of your visit means hitting the ground running. Co-working is an excellent option if you're staying put for more than a few days. Facilities vary, but typically you can expect a desk, and access to wifi, printer / scanner, tea / coffee and a lounge area. Some facilities may offer extended perks such as parking and on-site cafes. If you're visiting the market solo, it also means the chance to work in the company of other like-minded business people and freelancers. Co-working spaces can be searched by city on Nomad List.

It's been a winter. I've ping-ponged back and forth between beautiful Beaufort, SC, New York, Chapel Hill, NC, the Caribbean, and Pennsylvania. I've woken up not knowing which bed I'm in. . .really!! We've welcomed our new beautiful grand baby Theodore, made a non-decision to sell/not sell the house in Beaufort, and continued to enhance and enjoy our new home at 1270.
But now we know where we're going. Me and my morning cappuccino are putting the finishing touches on our trip to . . . .
I fly off to meet Telma next Tuesday. We'll enjoy four wonder-filled days at her Clocktower Cottage in Duras, south of Bordeaux. When she leaves, Don will arrive. My plan is to write a blog each day to keep up with the adventures in wine, food, chateaux, and unexpected moments .
You can follow this blog by filling in your email address in the bottom right- hand corner, or just watch for the posts which I hope will be linked to Facebook . Bon voyage!!

To help us understand where current and future Bay Area residents will live, work and get around in Santa Clara County and beyond, planners at MTC and ABAG have generated forecasts for jobs, housing, population, travel demand and transportation revenue. To show how these forecasts might play out over time—and to ensure the Plan is meeting the goals Bay Area residents helped identify in 2015—planners have developed three scenarios. Understanding how these three planning scenarios will impact life in Santa Clara County helps us recognize what issues may become most important as a preferred scenario is developed and Plan Bay Area updated.
See how the three alternative scenarios might impact population, employment, and housing growth in this county.
Locally Adopted Priority Development Areas (PDAs) and Priority Conservation Areas (PCAs)
Santa Clara County is the home of Silicon Valley and the birthplace and now global capital of the high technology revolution. Today, with over 1.8 million residents and 900,000 jobs, Santa Clara County is the most populous and job-rich county in the San Francisco Bay Area. Click the link to view three examples of the 42 locally adopted PDAs in Santa Clara County.

Goodman, who denies two counts of conspiracy to commit misconduct in a public office, told the court that Diana had sent a phone directory and other details about the royal household to the newspaper's office in east London, the Press Association news agency reported.
He said Diana, who separated from husband Prince Charles in 1992 after 11 years of marriage, had been in need of "an ally" at a very difficult time, the news agency said.
"She told me she wanted me to see the scale of her husband's staff and household, compared with others," the Press Association quoted Goodman as saying.
"She felt she was being swamped by people close to his household. She was looking for an ally to take him on — to show there were forces that would rage against him."
One so-called "Green Book," containing confidential phone numbers of royals and their staff, arrived at his office in an envelope with his name on it, Goodman said.
Goodman told the court he did not pay for the information, the Press Association reported.
Charles and Diana divorced in 1996. Diana died a year later, after the car she was riding in slammed into a pillar in a Paris overpass. Her boyfriend, Dodi Fayed, and their driver, Henri Paul, also died.
Goodman is one of seven people on trial on phone hacking charges.
Others include Rebekah Brooks, former chief executive of News International and onetime editor of The Sun and News of the World newspapers, and Andy Coulson, a former News of the World editor who went on to work for Prime Minister David Cameron. They deny the charges against them.
The jury has previously been told that Goodman pleaded guilty in 2007 to phone hacking charges.
The News of the World was closed down by News International, a UK division of Rupert Murdoch's News Corp., in 2011 amid public outrage over claims its employees had hacked the voice mail of a British schoolgirl who went missing and was later found murdered in 2002.

After completing a rigorous self-study process, Dublin Christian Academy hosted a team of educators for a peer review. The visiting team recommended Dublin Christian Academy for full accreditation to the American Association of Christian Schools (AACS) Accreditation Commission. The AACS Accreditation Commission voted February 4, 2019, to grant full accreditation to Dublin Christian Academy for five years. DCA is required to submit reports and additional curriculum requirements to the AACS Accreditation Commission on an annual basis to maintain our accreditation.
Purpose of Christian Education
Priority of Christian Education
Dublin Christian Academy is dedicated to the purpose of developing Christian leadership. We feel that the greatest need of our nation and world today is well-trained Christian leaders. We also feel that the greatest need of every Christian young person is to have the opportunity and advantages that a Christian education affords.
Because of these convictions, it is the purpose of Dublin Christian Academy to provide the best in academic instruction with a strong Christian emphasis. Discipline, self-control, and individual responsibility are woven into every phase of the program. In addition, there are many opportunities for the development of individual talents and abilities.
Assisting parents in fulfilling the Biblical mandate to "bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord" is the reason for our existence. Education cannot be neutral; education must be based on God's truth and consistent with Biblical principles. Christian education should work in harmony with the home and church to produce the Christian leaders of tomorrow.
Statement of Faith - Our Beliefs
Holy Scriptures
We believe that the sixty-six books of the Old and New Testament are verbally inspired of God and inerrant in the original writings; that God has perfectly and completely preserved His Word; that the Scriptures are, and do not merely contain, the Word of God; that they afford the basis for our doctrine, practice, and habits both in public and private life; and that they are the supreme and final authority.
We believe in the one living and Triune God Who is the perfect and infinite Spirit and the source and end of all things; that He is eternally existing in three persons - Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; and these three persons of the Godhead each possess equally the perfections of personality, self-existence, immutability, truth, love, holiness, omnipotence, omniscience, and omnipresence.
We believe that the Genesis account of creation is to be accepted literally and not allegorically or figuratively; that man was created directly in God's own image and after His own likeness; that man's creation was not a matter of evolution or evolutionary change of species, or a development through interminable periods of time from lower to higher forms; and that all animal and plant life were made directly by God in six literal, twenty-four hour periods.
Person of Satan
We believe that Satan was once holy and enjoyed heavenly honors, but through pride and self-centered ambition to be as the Almighty, fell and drew after him a host of angels; that he is now the malignant prince of the power of the air and the unholy god of this world whose powers are limited by the permissive will of God.
Nature of Man
We believe that man was created in the image and likeness of God; that in Adam's sin the race fell, inherited a sinful nature, and became alienated from God; and that man is totally depraved and utterly unable, of himself, to remedy his lost condition.
We believe that the Church universal, designated in the Scriptures as the body and espoused bride of Christ, is a spiritual organism made up of all born-again persons of this present age; and that the establishment and continuance of local churches is clearly taught and defined in the New Testament. Salvation of Man We believe that the salvation of man is and always has been wholly of grace through faith and made possible through the shed blood of Jesus Christ, the only atonement for sins; that the death of the Lord Jesus Christ for man was a voluntary substitution of Himself in the sinner's place, the just dying for the unjust, the Lord bearing man's sins in His own body on the tree that man might be pardoned and receive the gift of eternal life; and that no man is justified before God by any works of righteousness which he has done but solely through faith in the Redeemer's shed blood; that all the redeemed, once saved, are kept by the power of God and are thus secure in Christ forever!
Spiritual Gifts
We believe that God is sovereign in the bestowing of all His gifts; that the gifts of evangelists, pastors, and teachers are sufficient for the perfecting of the saints today; that speaking in tongues and the working of authenticating miracles gradually ceased as the New Testament Scriptures were completed and their authority established; that even though sickness together with every disorder and evil in human life are effects of the fall of man, divine forgiveness of sins is in His atonement; and that God does hear and answer the prayer of faith, in accord with His own will, for the sick and afflicted.
Human Sexuality
We believe that God has commanded that no intimate sexual activity should be engaged in outside of a marriage between a man and a woman. We believe that any form of homosexuality, lesbianism, bisexuality, bestiality, incest, fornication, adultery, and pornography are sinful perversions of God's gift of sex.
Last Things
We believe that the souls of the redeemed at death are absent from the body and present with the Lord where, in conscious bliss, they await the first resurrection when the spirit, soul, and body are reunited to be glorified forever with the Lord; that the souls of unbelievers remain after death in conscious misery until the second judgment when body, soul, and spirit reunite; that they shall appear before the Great White Throne Judgment and shall be cast into the Lake of Fire, not to be annihilated, but to suffer everlasting conscious punishment; and that the return of Christ for His bride, the Church, will be Pre-tribulational and Pre-millennial.
We believe that human life begins at conception and that the unborn child is a living human being.
Abortion constitutes the unjustified, unexcused taking of unborn human life. Abortion is murder. We reject any teaching that abortions of pregnancies due to rape, incest, birth defects, gender selections, birth or population control, or mental well-being of the mother are acceptable.
Educational Philosophy - Our Beliefs Applied To Education
1. Christian education is focused upon imparting truth. God is the source of all truth. He has revealed Himself to us through His creation, His Son,
and His Word which is inerrant, authoritative, and sufficient (Psalm 8:2-4, Heb 1:1-3, 2 Tim 3:16,17).
2. Christian education concerns itself with the whole person and produces growth
academically, physically, spiritually, and socially (Luke 2:52, Romans 12).
3. Christian education fosters a spirit of service to God and others (1 Cor. 12).
4. Christian education is delivered by teachers who are fully devoted to instructing the
students in the glorious truths found in God's creation and His Word (Colossians 1:28, Prov 1:7).
5. Christian education includes staff who is fully devoted to demonstrating Christ likeness
through serving God and others in their day-to-day life.
6. Christian education encourages each individual to develop their unique God-given
abilities for the glory of God.
7. Christian education inspires students to love God, love others, and live their life to
advance the gospel.

-I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.
-More often than not, when someone is telling me a story all I can
think about is that I can't wait for them to finish so that I can tell my own story that's not only better, but also more directly involves me.
-Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you
realize you're wrong.
-Have you ever been walking down the street and realized that you're
going in the complete opposite direction of where you are supposed to be going? But instead of just turning a 180 and walking back in the direction from which you came, you have to first do something like check your watch or phone or make a grand arm gesture and mutter to yourself to ensure that no one in the surrounding area thinks you're crazy by randomly switching directions on the sidewalk.
-That's enough, Nickelback.
-I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.
-Is it just me, or are 80% of the people in the "people you may know" feature on Facebook people that I do know, but I deliberately choose not to be friends with?
-Do you remember when you were a kid, playing Nintendo and it wouldn't work? You take the cartridge out, blow in it and that would magically fix the problem. Every kid in America did that, but how did we all know how to fix the problem? There was no internet or message boards or FAQ's. We just figured it out. Today's kids are soft.
-There is a great need for sarcasm font.
-Sometimes, I'll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and
suddenly realize I had no idea what the hell was going on when I first saw it.
-I think everyone has a movie that they love so much, it actually
becomes stressful to watch it with other people. I'll end up wasting
90 minutes shiftily glancing around to confirm that everyone's
laughing at the right parts, then making sure I laugh just a little
bit harder (and a millisecond earlier) to prove that I'm still the
only one who really, really gets it.
-How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?
-I would rather try to carry 10 plastic grocery bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.
- I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear
your computer history if you die.
-The only time I look forward to a red light is when I'm trying to
finish a text.
- A recent study has shown that playing beer pong contributes to the
spread of mono and the flu. Yeah, if you suck at it.
- LOL has gone from meaning, "laugh out loud" to "I have nothing else to say".
- I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.
- Answering the same letter three times or more in a row on a Scantron test is absolutely petrifying.
- Whenever someone says "I'm not book smart, but I'm street smart",
all I hear is "I'm not real smart, but I'm imaginary smart".
- How many times is it appropriate to say "What?" before you just nod and smile because you still didn't hear what they said?
- I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars teams up to prevent a d from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers!
-What would happen if I hired two private investigators to follow each other?
- While driving yesterday I saw a banana peel in the road and
instinctively swerved to avoid it...thanks Mario Kart.
- MapQuest really needs to start their directions on #5. Pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.
- Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.
- I find it hard to believe there are actually people who get in the
shower first and THEN turn on the water.
-Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty,and you can wear them forever.
-I can't remember the last time I wasn't at least kind of tired.
-Whenever I'm Facebook stalking someone and I find out that their
profile is public I feel like a kid on Christmas morning who just got the Red Ryder BB gun that I always wanted. 546 pictures? Don't mind if I do!
-If Carmen San Diego and Waldo ever got together, their offspring
would probably just be completely invisible.
-Why is it that during an ice-breaker, when the whole room has to go
around and say their name and where they are from, I get so incredibly nervous? Like I know my name, I know where I'm from, this shouldn't be a problem....
-You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you've made up your mind that you just aren't doing anything productive for the rest of the day.
-Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after DVDs? I don't
want to have to restart my collection.
-There's no worse feeling than that millisecond you're sure you are
going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.
-I'm always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten page research paper that I swear I did not make any changes to.
- "Do not machine wash or tumble dry" means I will never wash this ever.
-I hate being the one with the remote in a room full of people
watching TV. There's so much pressure. 'I love this show, but will
they judge me if I keep it on? I bet everyone is wishing we weren't
watching this. It's only a matter of time before they all get up and
leave the room. Will we still be friends after this?'
-I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Dang it!!!),but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voicemail. What'd you do after I didn't answer? Drop the phone and run away?
- I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not
seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.
-When I meet a new girl, I'm terrified of mentioning something she
hasn't already told me but that I have learned from some light
internet stalking.
-I like all of the music in my iTunes, except when it's on shuffle,
then I like about one in every fifteen songs in my iTunes.
-Why is a school zone 20 mph? That seems like the optimal cruising
speed for pedophiles...
-Sometimes I'll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still
not know what time it is.
-It should probably be called Unplanned Parenthood.
-I keep some people's phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.
-Even if I knew your social security number, I wouldn't know what to do with it.
-Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car
keys in a purse and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey - but I'd bet everyone can find and push the Snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time every time.
-I wonder if cops ever get ticked off at the fact that everyone they
drive behind obeys the speed limit.
-I think the freezer deserves a light as well.
-I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or
Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lites than Kay.
-The other night I ordered takeout, and when I looked in the bag, saw they had included four sets of plastic silverware. In other words, someone at the restaurant packed my order, took a second to think about it, and then estimated that there must be at least four people eating to require such a large amount of food. Too bad I was eating by myself. There's nothing like being made to feel like a fat
before dinner.

Larmica Lee (1985 Movie Variant) - Vampire hunter d
|I love the VHD franchise, and I love Larmica x Rei shipping, so as per my way, I decided Al and I where going Rei and Larmica (who doesn't love Rei, he's amazing!)
really looking forward to seeing this :D
So, I've been looking over grainy footage of the movie to get an idea what to make of this considering This may well be my next big costume after my Dragon Age ones. But my God - who the hell gave Larmica her colour scheme!? She has Green/Blue hair, a gold and black headress with red gems, a purple leotard with blue brooch, a black cape, black gemmed kneepads, and her belt is gold with three gems, one green, one blue - and I havent been able to figure out the last one yet - but sweet God, this girl is like a bag of skittles! Considering her belt gems are darker, I'm thinking of just having them all black for the sake of consitancy. Her brooch and headress gems will still be their respective colours, but I don't like the idea of looking like a rainbow below the neck. Opinions?

Low-Sugar, Healthy Coconut-Cacao-Covered Strawberries
- Feb 4, 2016
By Sonnet Lauberth, In Sonnet's Kitchen
These coconut-cacao-covered strawberries are a breeze to make.
A lot of folks have questions about the difference between the raw cacao powder I often use in my dessert recipes and cocoa powder. The difference is this: Cacao powder has no added sugar, and because the cacao beans are processed at low temperatures, this powder is full of antioxidants and minerals (like magnesium and iron) that you would find in the cacao bean. Cocoa powder is usually more processed, so these nutrients are often lost during the processing. I do think cacao powder and cocoa powder taste slightly different, but feel free to use cocoa powder in this recipe if that is what you have on hand.
Also, I recommend adding your own mix-ins, like chopped nuts or shredded coconut. I mixed a bit of chopped pecans and shredded coconut with my coconut butter–cacao mixture and then dipped the strawberries right in. If you're feeling fancy and want to make a prettier presentation, you can also dip the strawberries in the coconut butter–cacao mixture, then roll them in the chopped nuts or shredded coconut (or other mix-ins as desired) so the nuts and coconut are on the outside.
Prep time: 20 minutes
Total time: 20 minutes
Serves 4
? cup coconut butter (gently melt if hard)
2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
2 tablespoons cacao powder
Pinch of sea salt
Chopped nuts or shredded coconut (optional)
1 pound fresh organic strawberries
1. Mix coconut butter with maple syrup, cacao powder, and sea salt. Mix in chopped nuts or extra shredded coconut (if using).
2. Dip berries in coconut-butter mixture and refrigerate until serving.

Thanks a lot for the good advice how to run the program.
I ve got one question regarding the programming: It seems that in case
of non-identical observations with identical longitude and latitude,
the programs does not return the distance 0 but calculates the
shortest distance to non-identical latitude and longitudes. Am I
right? This is surprising and, I guess, for many users not desired. Is
it possible to change that (such that the distance 0 will be returned
in these cases)?

We have two schools of thought when it comes to giving gifts: either give something for which the recipient has explicitly or subtly asked, or surprise them with something they would never buy for themselves. The gift of time spent together (eating and drinking) always tops our Holiday wish- list, but nothing beats the satisfaction that comes with destroying a neatly wrapped gift…
Our selections to help with all of your gift-giving needs:
For your Foodie Friend: Mouth
Mouth curates American indie food and drink brands and puts them together in thoughtful and easy packages- either as one time gifts or re-orccuring gifts. Think: Popcorn Every Month, featuring flavors like white truffle mini popcorn and toasted nori popcorn; Bourbon Every Month, Bacon Every Month, etc. For a one time seasonal gift, we love the Holiday Savory and Sweet Fix, which is an assortment of noshes that are sure to make anyone's palate happy. Full size snacks, including savory cheese coins, sea salt caramels, and spiced candy almonds, come individually wrapped in a Mouth tote, making for an easy hostess gift, or care package for a friend hungry for something different.
For that friend that never misses Happy Hour: Cocktail Crate
Cocktail Crate is pretty close to having your own personal mixologist. Their pre-made cocktails are delicious and fresh, and really easy to serve- just add booze, and garnish, and you are good to go. The offerings change seasonally, and we love the Spiced Old Fashion to help take the edge off the cold winter nights. Expect a lot of invitations if you send Cocktail Crate…
For your bestie with whom you have been known to drain one or two (bottles) or wine:
THIS , deceptively large wine glass that fits an entire bottle of wine, eliminating the need for pesky refills, as well as any feelings of guilt. "I only had one…."
For that friend who has wanderlust and always wears her Traveling Pants- Luxe City Guides
We love to travel, and never go anywhere internationally without first consulting the Luxe Guides; they are the cheeky, worldly British friend we wish we had. Pocket- sized and absolutely packed with information, the Luxe Guides fit into your smallest night- time clutch, and include EVERYTHING you need to know about visiting a foreign city, including basic phrases in the native language (often including, "make that a double") and itineraries based on priorities (shopping, culture, etc) . They also make multi-city packs for longer trips, and attractive boxed sets, which we have given as gifts many times.
For your coworker who loves a good pun: Bow and Drape Sweatshirt
Bow and Drape will put any phrase you want on a sweatshirt, perfect for that friend who cracks themselves up on their Instagram stories. Personalized gifts always show an extra degree of thought, and these sweats are perfect for your friend with the successful instagram account, the friend who can't stop making Kanye puns, and your friend who is just that obsessed with their dog.
Our wishlist item: DXO One iPhone/iPad camera attachment.
Many of our fancy Instagram Influencer friends were gifted this little piece of photo magic and we are absolutely green with envy. A portable way to upgrade simple iPhone photos (which we use for our Insta account) without lugging around a big camera, the DXO One allows you to take and edit camera quality photos in a pocket- friendly attachment. If you are not so inclined to gift us one ( like the PR firm that gave these out, GRRR), this is a wonderful gift for anyone who loves taking photos of their food, or is intimidated by a large camera.
For the Home-cook: Lodge Cast Iron Skillet
"Ferris, he doesn't drive it, he just rubs it with a diaper." Cast Iron Skillets are a bit like us- high-maintenance and but totally worth it. The key to cast iron cookware is the "seasoning," vegetable oil baked onto the iron at a high temperature to create the properties of a natural non-stick surface; this requires special attention to preserve the seasoning, but its not hard. The more you use the skillets, the better it gets; cast iron cooking pieces can last up to 100 years. Lodge offers high quality at reasonable prices, especially for such an investment.
For your friend with all the ideas: Smythson Panama notebook
Smythson notebooks are a luxurious little reminder of the simple pleasure of writing things down. Pulling out one of these wittily titled, textured notebooks is an infinitely more satisfying way to record thoughts, inspirations, meals, etc than tapping away on a smartphone. Inspiration is not included. but this little gem will help…

off all the things in the recent article 8 things the world's most successful people all have in common, the one that's been the hardest to adopt is the "just say no" policy.
"saying no" means, in various forms:

in other words, "saying no" is simply just "saying yes to focus". and focus is one of the most powerful things in productivity.

We rolled into Sogamoso looking for a little rest and relaxation after our time hiking in El Cocuy. We camped at Finca San Pedro and it was exactly what we were looking for. Easy camping and good wifi went a long way. The following morning we were invited to a yoga session in the onsite studio. Perfect! Time to give everything a good stretch. Little did we know that this 2.5 hour long yoga session would also be a sales pitch explaining how good yoga was for EVERYTHING. Did you know that when you get really advanced in yoga that you are able to levitate?? Well, there wasn't any levitation happening, but we did feel pretty zenned out and relaxed afterwards.
The nearby lake, Lago de Tota is known for it's white sand beach, trout, and the onions that grow on the shoreline. A couple hours of driving around one of Colombia's highest lakes showed us all three. We stopped for a quick view of the beach, picked up fresh trout from a shop in a small town, and bought onions from the side of the road. This great little lake was a perfect sightseeing opportunity and gave our legs a rest after spending 5 days hiking in El Cocuy National Park. The trout and onions made for a fantastic dinner later that evening!
After a couple of rest days, we were jonesing for hike sooner than we thought. The only hike we could find in Sogamoso actually began in a small town called Mongui. We parked in the square at Mongui and met our guide Maria. A guide is required since the trailhead and trail aren't really marked at all. Maria and her husband, along with a local Colombian family, their dog, and a fellow traveler Olga from Russia would join us for what was supposed to be a relatively easy hike into the Paramo de Oceta.
It didn't take long before we climbed in elevation and the landscape started to look familiar to El Cocuy. Frailejones were growing everywhere alongside long grasses and the landscape started to expand over mountains and valleys. Oh yeah, and the temperature started dropping. And then the rain started.
These caves were used by the local indigenous people to hide from the Spanish conquerers. We crawled through them and appreciated their shelter from the rain.
This is about the time (5 hours in…) when the fun really started getting sucked out of the hike. It was cold, wet, and windy. Ashley doesn't seem too impressed with the situation. The Colombian family's shihtszu wasn't too keen on the weather either. He gave up on the walk and eventually had to be put into a backpack for the remaining part of the hike. His new name became glamor, likely due to his jacket and rhinestone collar.
After seven hours of hiking we finally made it back to Mongui. We drank piping hot cafe con leche, ate treats from the panaderia on the plaza, and said goodbye to our wonderful guides. Sure, the hike was probably one of the most uncomfortable that we have ever done, but the company was great, the views spectacular, and sitting in a warm cafe afterwards were all worth being a little wet and cold.

Ending a marriage can be a difficult and stressful time in a person's life - confusing court proceedings only add to the stress. When you or your spouse don't agree on your divorce-related issues, also knows as "contesting" the divorce, the process is long, adversarial and expensive. However, if you and your spouse can agree on all of the issues required to end your marriage, you may be able to file an "uncontested" divorce in New Mexico, which can save you stress, time and money.
This article covers the basics of an uncontested divorce and explains how to get one in New Mexico. If you have questions after reading this article, it's a good idea to speak with a New Mexico divorce attorney.
When you and your spouse don't agree about either ending the marriage or how to settle all of the issues involved in ending a marriage, the divorce is "contested." For a contested divorce, both you and your spouse will usually need lawyers, there will be multiple court appearances and possibly a trial before the judge decides the contested issues and grants you and your spouse a divorce.
In contrast, an "uncontested divorce" is available in New Mexico when you and your spouse agree that the marriage should end and how to settle all of your divorce issues, like property division, alimony, custody and child support. An uncontested divorce is usually much faster and cheaper than a contested divorce because you don't have any disputes for the judge to decide.
In New Mexico, a divorce is also called a "dissolution." The laws and paperwork you will need to fill out and file may use either or both terms, so don't be confused.
To be able to file for an uncontested divorce in New Mexico, both you and your spouse must agree on the following issues:
If you and your spouse have children together and your children are under age 18, you and your spouse must also agree on:
Furthermore, either you or your spouse must have lived in New Mexico for at least the six months immediately before you file for divorce and one of you must be "domiciled" in New Mexico. "Domiciled" means that you live in New Mexico and intend to stay living in New Mexico for the foreseeable future. If you have children together, the children must have lived in New Mexico for at least the last six months and must currently live in New Mexico.
The process of obtaining an uncontested divorce in New Mexico requires the filing of different forms depending on whether you and your spouse have children under the age of 18 together. The New Mexico Supreme Court provides all of the forms required for an uncontested divorce here.
If you do not have children with your spouse, you will file all of the forms included in the Dissolution Without Children Packet, provided by the New Mexico Supreme Court. The packet includes instructions and all of the forms needed to proceed with a basic uncontested divorce without children.
If you and your spouse have children under the age of 18 together, you will file all of the forms included in theDissolution With Children Packet, provided by the New Mexico Supreme Court. The packet includes instructions and all of the forms needed to proceed with a basic uncontested divorce with children.
Regardless of whether you have children with your spouse or not, the process to start an uncontested divorce is the same. First, you have to fill out the following forms:
Once completed, you must file these papers with the Court Clerk at the Supreme Court in the judicial district in which you or your spouse lives. When you file, you have to pay a filing fee. If you can't afford it, you can file an application to have the Court waive the fee. (Form 4-222 NMRA).
When you file your paperwork, the Court Clerk will sign and stamp the summons and give it back to you with a copy of your Petition. Next, you have to serve your spouse with the Petition and Summons.
To properly serve your spouse, someone other than you over the age of 18, must hand-deliver the papers to your spouse or you can mail your paperwork to your spouse by certified mail. If you have someone hand deliver the papers, then that person must complete and sign an affidavit (written declaration) of service, which you then must file with the Court. If you choose to use serve by mail, your spouse must sign the receipt indicating receipt of the paperwork and send it back to you for filing with the Court.
The next step to secure an uncontested divorce in New Mexico is to complete and file a Marital Settlement Agreement (Form 4A-301 NMRA). The Marital Settlement Agreement describes how you and your spouse have agreed to divide property and debts and whether one of you will pay spousal support, and if so, how much. If you and your spouse have minor children together, you also have to file the Custody Plan (Form 4A-302 NMRA) and the Child Support Obligation (Form 4A-303 NMRA).
If you're having problems coming to an agreement with your spouse, you can request the assistance of a mediator if the judicial district in which you have filed has a mediation program. If you need help settling child support or other financial issues, file Form 4A-205 NMRA. If you need the help of a mediator for the issues of custody and time sharing of your children, file Form 4A-204 NMRA.
Once you and your spouse have agreed on all issues and have completed and signed a Marital Settlement Agreement in front of a notary, you must submit the agreement along with a completed Final Decree of Dissolution of Marriage (Form 4A-305 NMRA) to the court for approval. The court will review your paperwork and, if approved, the judge will sign the Final Decree, making your divorce official and the terms of your Marital Settlement Agreement binding on both you and your spouse, just like a contract.

The 10th annual Craft Lager Festival will honor firefighters with free admission to thank them for protecting the city from the Waldo Canyon fire.
The festival has grown about 40 percent every years since it started, said organizer Julion Heron.
When Heron started his craft lager festival 10 years ago, it was the only one.
Now there are five annual beer festivals in the Pikes Peak Region, he said.
"The first year it was more like a kegger in the park."
Last year, the festival drew more than 6,000 beer lovers from around the country and featured 41 breweries and distilleries.
The brewers started to run out of beer the second day, he said. To remedy that, he's consolidated it into a single day this year.
Craft lager brewers from around the country come to show off their beers at the festival. Lagers require a special finesse for a craft brewer, Heron has said. If the many types of beer, it takes a particular patience.

If you are suffering from sinus problems and recurring sinus infections so badly then you might be desperate to find a remedy that actually works. One common procedure that helps sinus problems is Balloon Sinuplasty.
What a Relief! Clinical research has confirmed that Balloon Sinuplasty provides long-term relief from sinus symptoms. The procedure essentially opens blocked passageways of the sinus in order to improve breathing problems and recurrent sinus infections.
Less Invasive, Less Trauma. Generally, Balloon Sinuplasty is much less invasive than traditional sinus surgery. It causes less trauma to the sinus tissue and preserves sinus openings. The procedure results in minimal postoperative pain and bleeding.
Balloon Sinuplasty is performed through the nostrils and does not require cutting through the skin like traditional sinus surgery. In fact, most patients can go home a few hours after the procedure and can even resume their normal activities shortly after the procedure.
Happy Patients. Clinical research does show that the majority of patients who undergo Balloon Sinuplasty are extremely happy with the results. They testify that their quality of life improves dramatically and that they can breathe much easier and suffer much fewer sinus infections—if they get them at all.
Risks and Rewards. While results will vary in every patient, the research from major hospitals and specialists indicates that the procedure is generally very successful and very safe. However, just like any procedure, there are risks. Be sure to discuss these risks and benefits of any medical treatment with your doctor.
Will I Need a Repeat? Your sinuses will likely stay open for a long time following the procedure. However, certain factors may affect this length of time. For example, the extent of your sinus illness and symptoms, the nature of your sinus infections, the anatomy of your sinus passageways, and so on can all affect how long your Balloon Sinuplasty will remain effective.
Contact an ENT Specialist Boynton Beach
While many patients are happy with the results of a Balloon Sinuplasty procedure, and the results are often positive, not all patients are good candidates. Each patient is different and his or her body reacts differently to each procedure.
Researching the procedure and reading patients' testimonials may help you to decide whether or not to go forward with the procedure. Your ENT specialist can help you, too, by discussing how the procedure works and assessing your medical history to determine if Balloon Sinuplasty is the best option for you and your sinuses.
While repeating the Sinuplasty procedure is necessary in some cases, it is mostly uncommon. But if you feel that your symptoms are returning or worsening, then you should contact your ENT specialist immediately to discuss the issue at 561-737-8584 .

For those of you that don't know, we're new to WordPress and one of our main goals is to receive more traffic to our new blog. In doing so, we must think of a creative way to publicize our blog and what other way is better than QR codes? We posted a couple of these bad boys around our school, hoping that they'll catch some people's attentions and draw them to our blogs. What use is a voice if it can't be heard?
All credit goes to our buff, young, smart, cool, funny, and hip English teacher, Mr. Theriault.
(By the way, I so did not include those adjectives in hopes of getting an A in his class if that's what you were thinking.)
Oh yeah, and we recommend you guys to go check out his nifty blog: http://mrtheriaultfvhs.wordpress.com/
Anyways, back to the QR codes. If you have an iOS or Android, you can easily download the app that scans QR codes by going to the app store and searching for "QRReader." You may be thinking, "What the heck? Who even uses QR codes anyways?" Well, QR codes are everywhere and you may not even realize it. It's especially used for marketing but can also be used for many other things.
There is a subway in the Netherlands where the walls are beautifully painted. What are painted one those walls are shelves containing books with QR codes on them. So whenever someone is waiting for a train and is in need of something to do in the meantime, they can just whip their phone out, scan the QR code on the book they are interested in reading, and they will be able to read the book of the one they scanned. Here is a picture of what it looks like.
Pretty creative, right? Who would've ever thought of the idea of having people scan walls and having classics appear right in the palm of their hands?
We are thinking about posting the QR code of our blog all around our city and hopefully out of our city if we ever get the chance to. As a blog that's mainly about life and adventures, we encourage people to go on an adventure to search for pictures with QR codes that are just like the first picture of this post. We've decided to have a surprise giveaway to the first 3 people that are able to find at least 2 of them.
Here is how you can do so. Once you've spotted a QR code of our blog, take a picture of it and name the location of where it's at. Then, post it on your blog and tag "spiritofadventuring." Winners will be announced on one of our future posts. Tell your friends to join you on the adventure as well! Good luck and hope you guys support us!
