The next children to come along after the indigo generation, are the crystal children. They are mostly born from the mid-nineties onwards (though some were born earlier as 'scouts' on earth), and many of whom are born to lightworker parents.
These children are all about peace, love and acceptance. They are extremely affectionate, forgiving, gentle, kind, happy and much more easy-going than the indigos.
They are intuitive little wise souls.
Their most striking physical feature is that they usually have big eyes that seem to stare right into your soul. They are wise, loving and kind. These children love being outside and are very connected with nature, animals and have a natural curiosity and connection with Divinity.
They love rocks, crystals and the outdoors. They are like seeds being sewn on earth, as the lightworkers are, in order to usher in love, light and peace on earth. They are known to be highly telepathic, often reading other people’s minds, especially their parents! Because of this gift, some crystal children don't talk until a later age.
Crystal children also have discerning radars when it comes to reading people’s energy. You cannot hide anything from a crystal, they will see right through you, just like an indigo child does!
Often women pregnant with crystal children have telepathic or spiritual experiences as the high frequency of their crystalline babies helps awaken and heighten any dormant abilities. You can read about my personal experience here.
So the indigos have come in to break down old systems, and the crystal Masters, as carriers of the higher vibrations of crystalline Christ consciousness, are here as little peace-making love-warriors, teaching us how to live in harmony and unity. They are wonderful natural healers, drawn to other kids like them, as well as to help the elderly and people in need. In this way they are as love magnets, amplifying love to those around them. You will know when you are in the presence of a crystal child.
On the downside, they are extremely sensitive to their environs – people, places, foods, chemicals, toxins, noise, environment and various energies and so can tend to withdraw if they are feeling this way, and in order to protect their uber sensitive little selves.
Whereas some indigos are diagnosed as having ADHD, there are some crystal children diagnosed as having Autism.
*Large eyes with an intense stare.
*Use telepathy and self invented sign language to communicate.
*May be diagnosed with autism.
*Are even-tempered sweet and loving.
* Are connected to nature and animals.
*Are interested in crystals and rocks.
*Often discuss angels, spirit guides, and past life memories.
*Are extremely artistic and creative.
*Prefer vegetarian meals and juices to "regular food".
*May be fearless explorers and climbers with an amazing sense of balance. | 2019-04-22T19:03:49Z | http://www.nataliakuna.com/crystal-children.html |

When it comes to getting a pressure washer to use yourself, you have two choices – renting or buying. There’s also a third choice of hiring a professional contractor. There are valid reasons and benefits for each option. We’ll dive into these so you can decide what makes the most sense for your home and budget.
Be sure to check out our top list of pressure washers to see what meets your needs before deciding.
Who should rent a pressure washer?
Basically, there are three types of homeowners who would benefit more from renting.
Those who only need a pressure washer occasionally, such as once a year or less.
Those who don’t want to pay a contractor to do the job (typical cost $110 – $350).
Those who can’t afford to buy a pressure washer that will meet their needs.
Renting a pressure washer has both pros and cons to consider before you rush out to your home improvement store to borrow one.
No maintenance. The store takes care of this.
No permanent storage space needed. If you have a small garage or none at all, this can be a big pro.
No winterizing, which can be tedious before storing it away for the winter.
Less expensive for one rental session than buying.
Can rent a machine that’s professional grade.
You have to run the machine yourself.
Local environmental or noise ordinance laws may prohibit using the high-powered machines that are available to rent.
For heavy, long-lasting cleaning jobs, renting could be more costly than hiring a professional to do the job or buying a pressure washer.
Professionals could do a better job quicker.
Buying one usually pays for itself within a few renting sessions.
That depends on where you rent it from and what type of machine you rent. Most places charge per day. If you go to an independently-owned rental shop, you will likely pay more than at a big brand store.
Hot water gas pressure washers, typically the most expensive to buy AND rent, are available at some rental locations. The hot water and high pressure combo provides quick and efficient grime removal. Most of them are 2500 – 3500 PSI and usually come on a 4-wheel cart for easy transport. A diesel or kerosene burner heats the water to near-boiling temps.
Here are the prices to rent a hot-water pressure washer for a day at 6 US stores. As you can see, it’s a pretty big range, and you may not have some of these stores in your area.
Gas-powered pressure washers (cold water) probably make the most sense to rent. They’re pretty expensive to buy, but cheaper than a hot water unit to rent. They’re strong enough to tackle most heavy-duty jobs, but there are some medium-duty ones that are usually slightly cheaper to rent. Heavy-duty machines usually have 2800+ PSI. They come with direct drive or belt drive pumps, with belt drive being the most expensive, yet the most long-lasting.
Finally, you can also rent an electric pressure washer at some locations. These are the most affordable to buy and rent. However, they are less powerful and best for light to medium-duty jobs. They are quieter and pollute less than gas, which is good for areas with noise or exhaust ordinances. You can also use them indoors, since there is no worry about carbon monoxide emissions.
Very few rental shops actually have these available. Of the 7 we listed above, only Home Depot had one available to rent at the time of this post. Theirs was a 1400 PSI machine and cost $35/day to rent.
Besides cost of renting, there are a few questions to consider before you borrow a machine.
What do you need to clean? If you have a big property or farm with outdoor surfaces or farm equipment that haven’t been cleaned in a long time, you may need a high-powered machine, and it may take you more than one day to get the job done. In this case, you may be better off buying. If you have a new home or small property that just needs some light cleaning once or twice a year, renting may be the better choice.
How much time, space, and skill do you have? Owning a pressure washer means you have to handle all the maintenance, winterizing, etc. You need enough storage space in a garage, shed, or basement to store it when not in use. You also have to know how to operate the machine safely and efficiently. If you don’t have the time and space, renting is a good option. If you aren’t confident in your cleaning skill, hiring a professional would be a wise choice.
Are pressure washers available to rent in your area? If you have to drive a hundred miles just to rent one for a day, you may be better off ordering one online and having it shipped to your door.
If you’ve decided that you’re better off buying your own pressure washer, browse our list of top pressure washers in both gas and electric. | 2019-04-19T00:15:20Z | https://cleanup.expert/info/buy-or-rent-a-pressure-washer/ |
A friend told us she sent her mother back to their country for treatment yesterday. Her mum stays with her, helping to look after her child, but has no medical insurance.
Paying from her pocket will increase her credit debt or leave a big dent in her savings. She decided to spend part of the money she will be billed here to purchase a ticket for her to travel and get treated at one of the best hospitals in her country. HUMPH! My people, this is to tell you that, medical ain't cheap in yankee O!
When in Nigeria, the impression I got from diasporas was that medical was free, and cheap. I believed because, Nigerians often travel abroad to seek for medical attention and nobody ever talked about the challenges they encountered. On my arrival, I learnt that it was not so in yankee! I was surprised to find out that some drugs cannot be bought over the counter like anti-biotics and blood/iron capsules, without doctor's prescription. Hence, people rob pharmacies! But medications for common ailments like cold, flu, headache, stomach upset, allergies, and cough can be seen on the shelves. The first month of my arrival, I heard, how a man walked into a 24/hour pharmacy one early morning, and shot down the people there, and stole some drugs! Recently, a man robbed a store of $1:00, so he will be arrested, and be entitled to medical insurance in the prison and be treated for his ailments!
The doctors abroad, are well experienced and equipped to carry out their jobs professionally! But this comes at a price! Medical insurance helps to ease the burden, but sometimes, it does not cover all procedures! The patient might end up paying part of the medical cost! That is why, you must understand the type of medical insurance you are buying, and verify from them before embarking on any major procedure, or else, you might end up paying from your pocket! And if you refuse to pay, your name will be taking to debt collectors! Immigrants and citizens without medical insurance pays with cash or cards.
The reasons some don't have medical insurance are; They don't have papers, or it will reduce their income drastically when deductions are made monthly, and since insurance is renewed yearly, if they have no need to visit the doctor for a whole year, it's sweet bye-bye to the money! And if you resign from the job that deductions are made monthly from, kiss your money farewell! Hence, some decide to pay as when needed. You can still go to ER, in case of emergency, even without insurance, you simply tell them the mode of payment; Debit, credit, or cash. A guy used his insurance to get himself treated, just a day after resigning from his job, the insurance company wrote to him that they were not liable! He was surprised! He paid it from his pocket. Another lady, got approval from her insurance to go ahead with a major treatment. Months later, they wrote to her, saying, she will pay part of it. It became a court case. They won, so she is expected to pay thousands of dollars installmently for many years!
Medicard is the government insurance for children from 0-17years, senior citizens from 60 years old, pregnant women and prisoners. Thus, obamacare is a welcome relief to many, because the onus now falls on employers also to provide medical insurance for their employees and one's income will determine how much to pay monthly for medical insurance, no longer a flat rate set by different insurance firms. So my people, that is how it rolls in yankee o! Hence, I doff my 'gele' for Nigerians who come here often to seek for medical help. Excluding our politrikians sha!
Happy weekend to everyone and compliments of the season in advance.
America is too fast paced abeg.
Most people who rob pharmacies do so for controlled substances. I was surprised about the medical situation for the uninsured too. For states who signed up for Obamacare, it's been very helpful for a lot of people.
This is another "true talk" for those who think that everything is free in Yankee—great work, New Dawn. In Canada we have "free healthcare" and it is good, though it does not cover medication nor does it include dental coverage (unless you are under age 17, your family's income is at a certain level, and you don't have any form of medical insurance that covers dental work). An employer that offers a generous medical insurance package is gold!
From the little I know of it, Obamacare is definitely a step in the right direction. | 2019-04-26T06:45:31Z | http://www.thenitty-gritty.com/2014/12/medical-in-yankee.html |

In this YA retelling of Snow White, Lorelai Diederich is the princess of Ravenspire, which has been taken over by her wicked stepmother, a powerful sorcerer named Irina. Irina’s dark magic, which steals the lifeblood of Ravenspire itself, has bewitched everyone in the kingdom to obey her without question. Lorelai, her brother Leo, and their faithful servant Gabril are on the run and trying to start a revolution, but without much success. Meanwhile, the neighboring kingdom of Eldr is being overrun by ogres, so Prince Kol is forced to ask for Irina’s help. In exchange, Irina magically compels him to hunt down the fugitive royals and kill them. When Kol and Lorelai eventually do meet, however, they decide to join forces and oust Irina from the throne. But will they be able to overcome her powerful magic?
I’m a fan of fairytale retellings, and there’s a lot to enjoy in this novel — a strong heroine, a fast-moving plot, an intriguing fantastical world, and even some dragon shapeshifters! But while I liked the book, nothing about it particularly wowed me. Lorelai and Kol are both entertaining characters, but I feel like I’ve seen them before; feisty heroines with hidden potential and the conflicted heroes who love them are a dime a dozen in YA fantasy. I appreciated the attempt to give Irina some nuance, but all the other characters are fairly one-dimensional, particularly Gabril, who exists only to be a Loyal Servant. The world-building did pique my interest, but I wanted to know more about the magical system (the “rules” aren’t ever quite clear) and how the different countries interact. To be fair, the world is probably fleshed out more in the sequels, and I may end up getting them from the library at some point, but I’m not in a rush. | 2019-04-21T14:15:03Z | https://youbookmeallnightlong.com/2018/06/10/review-the-shadow-queen/ |

Dubailand has climbed to the top position on the list of most popular areas in Dubai, an analysis by ServiceMarket, the UAE’s leading marketplace for home services, has revealed. It’s a major shift in Dubai’s moving trends because an increasing number of people now seem to prefer newly developed suburbs compared to highly populated established areas like Dubai Marina and Downtown. Based on thousands of residential moving requests placed through ServiceMarket.com in 2017, this annual moving trends report highlights neighbourhoods with the highest influx of residents and draws comparisons with earlier studies to find out how the moving-in and moving-out activity has shifted recently.
Where did most people move to in 2017?
With Dubailand emerging as the most popular area, Dubai Marina, which had held the top position during the two previous years, has been pushed to the second place. While Dubai Marina is densely-populated and more developed, Dubailand offers more affordable rents. These two areas are followed by Downtown, Dubai Silicon Oasis, and JVC/JVT.
And where did most people move from?
It’s not surprising that popular areas like Dubai Marina and Downtown also see a lot of moving-out activity since they have more residential towers and apartments compared to other areas, and consequently see a higher turnover. We need to keep in mind that a lot of people who move out of a apartment in these areas move to another house in the same area. However, Dubai Marina/JBR and Downtown witnessed more moving-out activity compared to moving-in activity, and as a result lost a significant number of residents in 2017. On the other hand, Dubailand experienced more moving-in activity.
How have moving trends changed since 2016?
The influx of residents to Dubai Marina/JBR was almost as much as that of Dubailand and Downtown combined in 2016. But this year, Dubailand has overtaken Dubai Marina, and Downtown is not far behind. Quickly gaining popularity in the region, Dubai Silicon Oasis has also risen from the seventh to the fourth position in just a year.
Established areas: Dubai Marina and some of the other densely-populated areas have remained popular for many years because of the sheer volume of residential buildings available there. In addition, they have a greater variety of shopping malls, restaurants and other facilities. But due to relatively higher rents and more traffic, such areas are quickly losing their residents to newer, more affordable areas like Dubailand.
Newly developed areas: The most likely explanation for why suburbs like Dubailand and Dubai Silicon Oasis are overtaking developed areas in popularity is that residents have to face lower rents, there’s less traffic and facilities like malls, schools, and theme parks are quickly emerging. What’s more, freehold properties in these areas are available at much lower prices.
Over 58% of the influx of residents occured in just 10 areas of Dubai.
Dubai Marina and Downtown have been on the list of the top 5 most popular areas for three consecutive years.
A high number of requests for moving in as well as moving out are received from both of these densely-populated areas because a lot of units are available there.
Around a third (30-35%) of the residents move from one home to another in the same area.
After Dubailand, the next ambitious area seems to be Dubai Silicon Oasis, which is gaining popularity rapidly.

Dermatitis Herpetiformis, also known as DH or Celiac Rash, is a skin condition that produces a cluster of itchy blister-like bumps surrounded by a painful rash. There is no proven cause, although it is widely believed that the condition results from an allergy to gluten (a protein found in many wheat and grain products). The expected progression of an outbreak includes a tingling or burning sensation on the skin; the formation of tiny clear blisters and a rash throughout the affected area; the drainage of blisters (usually forced drainage, through excessive scratching); the healing of blistered skin; and finally, a collection of scabs that slowly fades. Dermatitis herpetiformis symptoms usually appear on the elbows, knees, scalp, buttocks and back, but can appear elsewhere according to condition severity.
Usually, dermatitis herpetiformis symptoms first present themselves in men and women over the age of 20. It is chronic and causes a lifelong threat of rash outbreak. According to recent statistics, remission from dermatitis herpetiformis only occurs in 10-20% of patients. Treatments are considered successful when they can manage the itch and discomfort, or reduce the length of the outbreak. Avoiding foods containing gluten can help to prevent this condition only in certain cases. There is no cure for dermatitis herpetiformis. If you experience symptoms resembling those associated with this condition, do not attempt to self-diagnose. Seek advice from a medical professional for proper diagnosis and treatment. As the condition is associated with Celiac disease resulting from gluten allergies, symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting or unexplained weight loss may also be present.
Terrasil Itch, Rash & Pain Relief's powerful formulation provides gentle, all-natural relief from painful dermatitis herpetiformis rash and soothes skin on contact. | 2019-04-25T08:56:44Z | https://www.aidanceproducts.com/itch-rash-pain-relief/dermatitis-herpetiformis/ |

40 New Homes At Salmon Leap, Coleraine.
Hagan Homes, Northern Ireland’s largest homebuilder, has started construction of the second phase of its £5million Salmon Leap development in Coleraine (Castleroe Road, BT51 3TW).
This second phase (£2 m) will include 14 three-bedroom townhouses and semi-detached homes, with prices starting from £129,950. Approximately 25 jobs have been created and construction is scheduled to be completed by August 2019. The show home is scheduled to open at the end of March 2019.
“Salmon Leap offers residents the opportunity to live in an area of outstanding natural beauty just outside of Coleraine. Situated off the Castleroe Road, the site occupies the former Salmon Leap Hotel on the edge of the River Bann.
Mr Burke continues: “The demand for superior, beautifully designed homes in Northern Ireland, which offer value for money, remains high. Hagan Homes is renowned for its heritage of craftsmanship and reputation for carefully applying the best of modern building technology to every development. The result is a place that is rich in detail, with homes that are stylish, efficient and comfortable.
"The £129,950 price for a home in the Salmon Leap development comes with a guarantee of astonishing quality, including luxurious carpets, sleek tiles and designer contemporary sanitary ware in bathrooms. Kitchens are also bespoke and come complete with integrated appliances designed and fitted by our tried and tested craftsmen. Finer touches include contemporary under lighting to kitchen units to floor level mood lighting. We have created turnkey homes ready to move into with no fuss and no hidden expenditure."
Hagan Homes recently (Nov 2018) announced its plans to build 2000 new homes over the next ten years, as part of an ambitious £300million development programme. The investment will create and sustain hundreds of jobs in the local construction sector. The announcement was made as part of the company’s 30th anniversary celebrations.
The main contractor for the Salmon Leap project is Eglinton, Co. Derry based Nollam Contracts Limited. | 2019-04-19T15:04:02Z | https://www.haganhomes.co.uk/40-new-homes-at-salmon-leap-coleraine-p5302 |

SUPERCALAFASHIONISTIC: An Actual ASOS Store, SAY WHAT?!
An Actual ASOS Store, SAY WHAT?!
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls. News just in! Our favourite online high street retailer, ASOS, are opening a retail store. That's right, an actual bricks-and-mortar store that you can physically walk into rather than clicking away from behind your computer screen.
I know, I too was a little shocked that this online emporium which has hundreds of new styles hitting the site each week could actually have a store big enough to house all the different styles. But that's just it. ASOS chooses selected styles, the creme de la creme of their collections to make this store the place of all fashion lovers dreams.
Sadly for my fellow Londoner's it is an 8hr flight to visit this store, but for you all you lucky New Yorkers, ASOS has decided to cross the pond, and set up shop at 142 Greene Street in Soho.
It's pretty much the only thing that could make ASOS even better. Just think, all those hours spent online shopping, and waiting in for your delivery, and now you can actually step foot inside the store.
Why oh why did I ever leave that glorious city! | 2019-04-24T14:41:45Z | http://www.supercalafashionistic.com/2012/12/an-actual-asos-store-say-what.html |

The Contra Costa Chamber Orchestra will present “The Trumpet Shall Sound” on Saturday, November 10 at 2:00 pm in the extraordinary El Campanil Theatre in Antioch’s historic, downtown Rivertown.
Joe Brown, 2nd trumpet in the SF Ballet Orchestra, will perform Alan Hovhaness’ lush, dream-like Prayer of Saint Gregory and Johann Hummel’s shimmering and virtuosic Concerto for Trumpet in Eb.
Also on the program are California-based composer Nick Benavides’s mesmerizing Magnetismus, and the heart-rending Adagio from Leos Janacek’s Idyll. The program will close with Haydn’s Symphony No. 82, nicknamed “The Bear” because the last movement has a section reminiscent of bagpipe music used to accompany dancing bears for several centuries in Europe.
The orchestra’s magnetic new conductor, Chad Goodman, was featured on the cover of the October issue of Diablo Magazine. Throughout the program he will engage the audience by sharing fascinating background information on the composers and their work.
Tickets – Adults $20, Seniors (62 & over) $15, Youth (17 & under) $7. Call El Campanil Theatre, 602 W. 2nd Street at 925-757-9500 or visit www.elcampaniltheatre.com.

I was enjoying my groovy mani so much, that I almost didn't change my polish today. ALMOST! But then, what kind of obsessive compulsive polisher would I be if I did that!
I picked my new Deborah Lippmann Brick House today. I thought it looked like Essie Alligator Purse with shimmer. I may have to compare them in an upcoming dupe day post to see for sure. This is the second DL polish I've tried recently, and I really don't like the formula at all. You would think for this price, it'd be nicer. It lacks in pigmentation and is runny. Plus DL labeled this as a shimmer, but in my mind, it's closer to a metallic bordering on a frost. I had a really hard time trying to not get brush strokes when applying this.
The final thought I have on this? It's pretty and reminds me of the color of a brand new penny. For me, I could use less of the frost aspect, but it's not a bad color. Plus I mentioned in my last post, that this color may be a dupe for the upcoming Essie color Very Structured, but the Essie I think is a creme. I will definitely be testing my theory as I promised you in that post.
Since I liked the white stamp in my last post, I decided to use it again. I almost used my go to Essie Little Brown Dress, but thought it may be too dark for this mani. Next time though, I'm trying it. I used Bundle Monster plate BM 212 for this.
This pattern reminds me of peacock feathers. Do you see that too? While I like this look, it isn't making me as happy as my groovy green from my last post. Plus I apologize for my sad cuticles. I have no excuse except pure laziness and not enough lotion.
But the cool thing about nail polish? You can take it off and start over if you don't like it. Right?!?
Yea, it totally reminds me peacocks too. And I really like this color, I have a similar one and it's one of my favorites.
I don't have any Lippmanns, the price just scares me so I'm holding off for a while. And yes, for the price, the formula should not only be perfection but you should hear angels singing in the background. I mean really. Is that too much to ask, Deb?
@Laura- damn girl you crack me up! And yes I agree with you. Save your money! | 2019-04-22T08:30:22Z | https://www.fingerspolishmania.com/2011/07/pretty-as-penny.html |

FORD ISLAND Roll back the doors on Hangar 87, little changed with its World War II-era green, metal-framed windows, and it's not what you expect inside.
Terminals demonstrate the Navy Marine Corps Intranet Oahu Network Operations Center to be housed at Ford Island.
In the building within a building on historic Ford Island lies the future of Navy and Marine Corps communications, and possibly all services to come a $75 million-plus secure data, video and voice information services nexus that will link Pacific Command naval forces through a single cohesive network.
Through hubs like the one on Ford Island, the $6.9 billion Navy Marine Corps Intranet is expected to eventually link 400,000 desktops across the United States, as well as in Puerto Rico, Iceland and Cuba, replacing a hodgepodge of 200 computer systems.
Each of two 7-foot backup "silos" at Ford Island holds 240 terabytes of information equivalent to 8,000 30-gigabyte hard drives. Two other silos, at Camp Smith and the Marine Corps Base at Kane'ohe Bay, have backup space equal to roughly half the information contained in all reference libraries and universities in the United States.
"This is a pioneering effort, a pilot effort, that if it succeeds will become the basis upon which we will move to expand what is being done here to the entire United States military," said Rep. Neil Abercrombie, D-Hawai'i, at last Tuesday's activation of the O'ahu Network Operations Center.
Abercrombie, who is on the House Armed Services Committee, complained of the communications gap the military suffers.
"It's one thing to have a joint team, it's one thing to have an infrastructure. ... Organizationally speaking, that says we are an integrated force capable of meeting what the strategic interests require of this nation," Abercrombie said.
"But the plain fact of the matter is that in terms of communication we are unable to do so."
Abercrombie called the combining of communication and intelligence "the single most important function of a modern military."
Navy personnel stand at attention during ceremonies at the new intranet center at Ford Island. The network will link Pacific Command naval forces through a single system.
With classified and unclassified information serv-ers, the Navy Marine Corps Intranet is expected to provide streamlined contact with commanders-in-chief, while deployed personnel will be able to reach experts and databases anywhere in the world.
Several hundred people, including Navy and Marine Corps officials, Hawai'i's Washington congressional delegation and members of the Information Strike Force team led by contractor Electronic Data Systems Corp. of Plano, Texas, were on hand for the opening.
Tours were given of new computer work stations and humming server farm, where 25 miles of fiber-optic cable snake between systems.
Pacific Fleet commander Adm. Walter F. Doran said the intranet "brings about an era of information management that will give the war fighter what he needs in this new world a single, secure, Navy-wide network."
Aboard an aircraft carrier where a sailor has severe internal bleeding requiring immediate surgery, the ship's surgeon is guided through video teleconference by the head of vascular surgery at Bethesda Naval Hospital in Maryland.
En route, a ship's petty officer traces a fault in the air search radar to a component not available aboard or in the battle group. Accessing a worldwide naval supply database on the intranet, he is able to find the nearest part and arrange its delivery to the ship.
An intelligence officer deployed with a Marine Expeditionary Unit receives orders to assemble intelligence information quickly for the evacuation of U.S. civilian and diplomatic personnel from an island nation in the Pacific. From the intranet the officer gets the needed information from classified Defense Intelligence Agency and State Department Web pages.
"The real result will be seen in better integration of our forces, the saving of lives in combat, as well as victory on the battlefield," Doran said.
The U.S. Air Force is looking at an intranet of its own, and the Army is weighing a similar move. Navy and Marine Corps intranet hubs were set up previously in Norfolk, Va. and San Diego.
Doran said it is fitting to have the Hawai'i network operations center on Ford Island.
"The very land that you are standing on ... represents a period of our history which clearly transformed our nation from the age of the battleship to the age of the aircraft carrier," he told the assembly. "We stand here today in the midst of yet another transformation."
The 450-acre Ford Island is part of a more than $100 million joint plan with developers to consolidate operations and build housing and office space.
Because it is part of a National Historic Landmark District, the network operations center was built inside the 1942 hangar without disturbing the exterior appearance. Flooring posts were even glued down to prevent damage to the concrete pavement.
The 40,000-square-foot center will initially have a staff of 75. Ultimately, the facility will employ some 200 people in a variety of information technology jobs, the Navy said. The center will have an annual operating budget between $13 million and $18 million.
Nationwide rollout of the intranet has seen some delays and glitches as users transfer from older systems. Officials with contractor EDS said that in Hawai'i the network operations center is "scaling up" to support 15,000 computers this year. By 2004, they said, 30,000 to 40,000 users across the Pacific basin will be connected. | 2019-04-24T22:23:51Z | http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/article/2002/Jul/08/mn/mn01a.html |
The Petty family has been involved in funeral service since John Lawson Petty, Sr. stocked handles and linings for homemade caskets in his store near Gowensville, SC in the late 1800's. Later, his son, Tolly Woodson Petty stocked caskets in his store which was in Gowensville through Petty Merchantile Company. He also offered his services by providing a horse drawn hearse for adults and a small white horse drawn hearse for children.
In 1927, the business was relocated a few miles down the road to Landrum. The facility was in a small brick building on Trade street. Tolly W. Petty's son, J.L. Petty II enrolled in Gupton Jones College of Mortuary Science in Nashville from where he graduated in 1932. Later, he took post graduate courses and became the first licensed embalmer in northern Spartanburg County.
In 1984, after J.L. Petty's death, the business was taken over by his son, John L. Petty III who graduated from Gupton-Jones Dallas Institute of Mortuary Science in 1965.
Currently, he is joined in business by his daughter, Paula Petty Dotson, a licensed funeral director and embalmer, son, John L. Petty IV, a licensed funeral director and son in law, Shannon Dotson, a licensed funeral director and embalmer.
The Petty Funeral Home continues it's personal service through it's fourth licensed generation. | 2019-04-22T02:24:40Z | https://www.pettyfuneralhome.com/about-us |

Discover how this photographer booked 60% more clients with Facebook video ads.
Kristina Houser is a wedding and portrait photographer and owner of Kristina Houser Photography & Cinema in Tampa Bay. Her studio was attracting a handful of new customers through local Google searches, but most of her business came from referrals. She wanted to expand her reach to bring in more business.
Kristina decided to experiment with Facebook advertising and, having heard that Facebook favors video in the News Feed, decided to experiment with video as well. The plan was to focus on promoting headshot sessions because of the low entry cost. Clients that come in at a lower price point often return to book shoots with family or come to her for wedding photos. Using Animoto, Kristina’s team was able to create this video quickly and easily.
The video pairs some of their strongest headshot photographs with big, bold, eye-catching text that highlights the benefits of booking a shoot. "We wanted something that felt professional and on-brand, so it was great that we were able to use our own colors for the text to tie it back to the studio," says Kristina. "The collage blocks also made it easy for us to show off a lot of our work at once without the video getting too long."
Once the video was created, it was shared on the company's Facebook page and promoted for $100 using Facebook Ads Manager.
"I have started making more videos with Animoto and I am in love! The ease of making them is incredible and I can't wait to make marketing videos for all genres that we shoot."
The studio books 10 headshots in an average month. The month the Facebook video ad ran, they booked 16. Seven can be attributed to the Facebook video. A clear call to action at the end of the video made it easy for prospects to figure out how to get in touch, via phone or email, and where to go for more information.
Bookings aside, the video also led to a great deal of brand awareness. On the day the ad ran, the Kristina Houser Photography & Cinema website saw 415 visitors. That's more than 27X the average daily visitor count of 15.
Kristina also heard great feedback from friends and existing clients that saw the video. "It was exciting to hear comments about how professional the video was," says Kristina. "I didn't tell them it only took me 20 minutes."

My experience with Stacy Blackman Consulting was positive from the jump. I had an onboarding call with Esther Magna, from which I was already able to take away important information about my application process. I felt Esther thought carefully about who from her team it made the most sense to align me with as my main counselor. I was pleased to connect with Dione, who is a graduate of Stanford's GSB and a former application reader for that very AdCom. Stanford was my first choice, and from our initial conversation and throughout the process, I felt I could really benefit from Dione's first-hand experience and intel on that school's particular process and outlook.
I needed to maintain a pretty modest budget for this process, and I appreciated Dione's understanding and consciousness of that as we worked together on an hourly basis. She was generous and extremely prompt over email, providing plenty of information that way so that we could really dive in to the nitty gritty when we spoke on the phone.
I come from a pretty unusual background as far as MBA applicants go, and I also wrote a very personal essay for the "What matters to you?" prompt. It was the kind of essay that could have very easily felt like an overshare, but Dione gave me the advice I needed to properly frame that writing up so that it felt relevant to the AdComm's process while also being true to my experiences. She was sensitive, kind and discreet as we spoke through challenging material and the best way to convey a messy personal story to an AdComm. While I didn't pursue Dione's help for a "Flight Test" final read of the essay, I feel I could not have written the essay successfully without the conversations she and I had to set up my mindset for the prompt.
I also received resume feedback from Dione, wherein she was straight-forward and extremely helpful in helping me understand what the AdComms are scanning for. Especially as someone coming from a non-traditional background, I think it's very, very useful to do a resume edit with someone as knowledgeable as the counselors at SBC, who can help you shape your career story to really engage an MBA application reader.
All-in-all, I was grateful for Dione's generosity, thoughtfulness and very relevant intel in my process. I ultimately succeeded in getting in to my first-choice school, and I believe the help I received from SBC was instrumental in achieving that. Best of luck to you all!
As a Latin American re applicant candidate to top business schools in the US, I found the assistance and support from SBC to be extremely valuable. Since the beginning of the process, I was matched with a true counselor that understood very well my personal story and that helped me define the best route for strengthening my candidacy. Stephanie has been the best consultant, who has helped me polish a concise, clear and powerful pitch for Admissions. With her support and Rebekah (former admissions officer as Stephanie) who provided an excellent flight test before submitting my materials, I was admitted at Duke, IESE and currently waitlisted at Tuck. I can confidently say that SBC team is absolutely professional as they provide every resource needed for creating your best application. In this long process of applying to Business School, the support & guidance of former Admission Officers and counselors is critical, as they understand very well the process, and will support you in a comprehensive way, giving you the confidence to do the best of the process.
I worked closely with Shaifali Aggarwal, Esther Magna and Caryn Altman over the course of several months. I am an international student from a Finance background, so had to work hard to craft a unique and compelling story. Shaifali was my primary contact. She was always approachable and responsive. Working with her on my essays was great and very productive, and her comments on my latest drafts were always helpful and allowed me to hone in on the key points the admissions committee are looking for.
I should also mention that Stacy Blackman have a multitude of written materials for each school, as well as an online databank with past interview questions. These resources should not be underestimated, and are extremely useful.
Once a good draft of my application was ready, this was sent for a "flight test" with Caryn Altman, who is herself a former AdCom member. She reviewed my application in the same was as she did in real life, and her feedback was also invaluable. Finally, I had some practice interview sessions with Shaifali, which helped me perfect my interview technique and present myself in the best way.
I am pleased to say that I've secured a place at Wharton, my preferred school. I am delighted to be starting there later this year. I would like to thank the entire team at Stacy Blackman for their help over the last few months, and would unequivocally recommend their services to anyone who is serious about their business school applications.
Yvette is a gem! 2 full rides, 3 acceptances!
I am so beyond ecstatic at the results of my partnership with Yvette and the SBC team! I decided on SBC after reading many outstanding reviews and seeing the results of a friend who used SBC. I was matched based on my nontraditional background with Yvette Romero, a true gem!, and my main consultant who helped me identify target schools, refine my voice through my essays, and ace the interviews. Yvette was thoughtful, encouraging, and incisively realistic while making me laugh through an otherwise stressful process. Throughout our partnership, she asked me questions that highlighted aspects of my profile that I would have never considered to be special. Her advice on how to frame my applications to appeal to adcomm revealed deep insight into the admissions process, and as a result, even small tweaks to my application felt like home runs. Her deep knowledge of MBA admissions ultimately empowered me with a road map to strategically navigate those long months.
What felt most critical to me in our partnership and something that I will always be thankful for is that Yvette gave me the confidence I needed to overcome a low GPA. She taught me how to truly and unabashedly tell my unique story and highlight my strengths. She is a gifted listener and story teller, and she imbues you with these same qualities- asking the right questions until you arrive at the key story for your application to showcase. And because she is truly invested in your success and believes that you deserve your own best work, she will work painstakingly with you until you get it right! I am so proud when I read my essays and think on my interviews, because they feel like "me". Yvette really helped my essence shine.
I received THREE acceptances from top schools, including TWO FULL SCHOLARSHIPS - one from a reach school I hadn't considered until Yvette told me to go for it! As someone with a nonprofit background and the hurdle of a low GPA, I know the price looks a little steep but it is an incredibly worthwhile investment that will pay dividends! I am thrilled to be attending a top business school in the fall and regret nothing about my SBC experience. I cannot recommend Yvette enough. She pushed me to work hard, be honest, and be proud of what I had accomplished. I have loved working with her, and if you make the wonderful decision to do the same, I know you will, too!
Thank You Christine and SBC!
I worked with Christine Hawkins on 3 applications. Acceptance with a substantial fellowship + need-based aid to my top choice Columbia Business School and interview invite to Wharton would not have been possible without Christine’s and the SBC team’s amazing dedication (both 2Y full-time; withdrew from Wharton and Stern due to Columbia ED).
Even before the process started, I could tell by Esther's (principal manager) enthusiasm and commitment to me to make sure that I was matched with just the right consultant for me, that I had chosen the right company.
I was a female applicant from an increasingly competitive pool, was educated from a US college with mediocre grades, with no off-the-page leadership or community experiences (oh yes, and no GMAT score yet). During what could have been anxious and unsettling times, Christine was a counselor, confidence booster when I was down with unexpected CFA and GMAT test results, and was an honest critique of all my deliverables in the best sense of the term. Christine would lead me to pull out certain ideas, but would never go ahead and write essays FOR me (for many good reasons); when something seemed off to both of us but neither of us could quite put a finger on it, she steered me toward looking in other arsenals of my anecdotes and experiences (which until that point I didn’t know I had or could turn to!) and pulling essay ideas from there.
Christine's comments on my deliverables always came under 48 hours turnaround (though she is not obligated to work so by all means), and I was amazed by her willingness to go above and beyond her call of duty--for example, encouraging me to network with alumni in my area to see if they could submit sideletters for me, and offering to put in extra mock interview sessions. Also, Lisa Anderson's Flight Test put me at east and gave me that much-needed extra boost of confidence as I prepared to hit ‘submit’ for my first choice & anchor school, Columbia. Bill Chionis, my client liaison, was also extremely supportive in keeping me updated of all the different options for application review and his birds-eye-view of the entire process. All of this careful attention to each of my applications as if they were their own will definitely lead me to recommend Christine & the SBC's comprehensive package to friends who are current MBA-hopefuls.
I had a wonderful experience with SBC - receiving the all-in services for my Wharton Round 2 Application. From the outset, my diagnostic and initial conversations with Esther (onboarding) were incredibly helpful and informative. That conversation led to my decision to go with SBC instead of other firms I was speaking with (Veritas, Ivy).
From there I moved to work directly with Meghan, my dedicated consultant. As a former Wharton admissions officer, she was able to provide differentiated advice and guidance to support my Wharton application. She helped me think through my story and highlight the most impactful aspects of my professional and extracurricular experiences.
Equally important, was the mock team-based discussion preparation session that Meghan held for myself and five other candidates who received interview invitations for the Wharton Round 2 Interviews.
Meghan's candor in reviewing my application and in assessing my mock TBD performance informed my approach and strategy on interview day. I had no issues with any aspect of the service.
I considered Stacy Blackman, Veritas, and MBA Mission before choosing an all-in package. I read extensively online and held phone screens with each before making my selection. After applying during the R1, I am incredibly glad that I chose Stacy Blackman. I highly recommend SBC’s all-in package and specifically have wonderful things to say about Erika.
One of the primary reasons I was initially drawn to SBC is because they let you choose your own advisor, who you work with across all schools/applications, while the advisor will thoughtfully bring-in school-specific experts when necessary. By the time you decide to apply to b-school, your job experiences, grades, and extra curriculars are all set, so the advisor’s primary goal is to help you craft your story.
Besides her impressive background, I chose Erika because one of her previous reviewers had said that she was not afraid to “tell you when you are wrong.” Throughout the process, Erika was beyond candid, letting me know when something was great or making me start from scratch when knew it wouldn’t work. Erika was always reachable and patient, often responding within hours of my countless emails, day and night. Besides having a fantastic eye for helping to craft a narrative around your unique story, she was also very good at keeping me calm and helping me prioritize during an incredibly stressful process.
Erika takes the time to get to know you as a person – asking questions that go beyond what is typical – to make sure your whole life’s story is captured throughout the applications in a way that is impressive and not redundant. The entire time I worked with Erika, I felt like I was her only client – and I felt like she was as emotionally invested in my outcome as I was. I come from an Ivy League undergraduate school with a well-known job and a high GMAT score, so I was especially focused on finding someone to help me figure out how to make my applications standout. There is no doubt in my mind that Erika was a huge factor in my outcome. After applying to seven schools in R1, I am happy to report that I was admitted to both Kellogg and Sloan. I could not have asked for a better partner in this process.
Great from start to finish. Highly recommend DC!
I initially received a free consultation from Sarah who gave me some helpful pointers on timeline and my overall narrative. I decided to go 'all-in' for six schools because I knew I wanted to transition from my current career. From there, an SBC rep set up chats with several admissions consultants and I found someone who was a perfect fit. My opinion at the time (and today) is that an admissions consultant pays for itself in terms of admissions scholarships or simply increased lifetime earnings potential.
DC was an incredible and professional consultant throughout the entire application process. First, she walked through my life story and got a feel for what really made me ‘tick’. Next, she helped me develop a strategic plan for my application and we began the arduous process of developing applications for six elite MBA programs.
When I sent DC my drafts, she would always be quick and thorough with reviews. In fact, I found myself hoping (to no avail) that she might take a bit longer so that I could procrastinate. She has a wealth of experience in marketing and communications, so she understood how to focus my messaging. She helped highlight elements of my personal narrative that I had overlooked but that others would find interesting.
I was impressed to find that Stacy Blackman has wiki pages that include school-specific content about culture, academics, sample essays, interview questions, etc. for every major MBA program.
In addition, she is very kind and is always helpful even with tight deadlines. My applications would have been far more time-consuming and much less focused without her guidance.
Prior my first interview, DC gave me a mock interview. She shared some honest feedback that I really needed to hear; she is always polite but will never withhold feedback that might help an applicant.
In the end – of my six elite target schools – I was admitted to four and am currently waitlisted at one. I received 2 full tuition scholarships and a sizeable scholarship from another program. I have decided to go to MIT Sloan School of Management, and I couldn’t be happier! Thanks DC!
"I could not recommend Sherry highly enough. She made the entire process so much more manageable. From the start Sherry was responsive, understanding, and friendly. I had an interview at Duke the next weekend, and she immediately offered to walk me through a mock interview to help me prepare, even before we did the initial call. She read all of my essays and responded promptly - even essays that were for other, non-MBA programs that I was applying to. She completely reworked my resume and made me feel like I had a handle on the process more than I ever thought I would. After being in the working world for 4 years before deciding to go back to school, Sherry was exactly what I needed. | 2019-04-26T15:50:48Z | https://reviews.beatthegmat.com/stacy-blackman-consulting?page=3 |

Last Monday, the title for the Michael Bay’s fifth film following the battle between the Autobots and Decepticons was revealed in Transformers: The Last Knight. Paramount Pictures originally announced that the film would begin filming in June, but it looks like principal photography has already begun, thanks to Michael Bay sharing a photo on Instagram from the film’s set in Cuba.
Transformers: The Last Knight will feature the return of Mark Wahlberg following Age of Extinction as he reprises his role as Cade Yeager. Isabelle Moner is currently set as the film’s new female lead while Jerrod Carmichael is also set to star in a lead role. Josh Duhamel, who portrayed Lieutenant Colonel Lennix will return to the series, having previously been featured in Transformers, Revenge of the Fallen, and Dark of the Moon.
Tyrese Gibson who was also featured in the first three films has recently expressed a desire to return to the franchise. Michael Bay acknowledged Gibson’s hopes to return on Instagram last week, potentially hinting that Gibson and Duhamel may reunite once again.
What do you hope to see in this new entry in the Transformers saga? Are you excited or disappointed that Michael Bay is returning to the director’s chair? Sound off in the comments below, and always remember to check back for more news on the upcoming movie.

Eric also finished all certification education of STOTT PILATES®. Incorporating Pilates in his personal fitness training, he made his programs more effective and efficient. Listen to one of his clients and you will see how they adore Eric.

Hi, I’m Maria. I first discovered Pilates many years ago as rehabilitation for my back pain and sciatica. Experiencing the enormous benefits of Pilates, my interest grew and eventually led me to complete the full range of STOTT PILATES® instructor training and became a fully certified STOTT PILATES® instructor.
Pilates has changed my life! I no longer have any pain and feel as if I’ve been given a fresh start. I am dedicated to my practice and will continue to learn about Pilates. I hope to share my knowledge with others to help them overcome their physical limitations and gain the many benefits of STOTT PILATES®.
Nicole is a sports lover, swimming, hiking, ice-skating and yoga are all her favourites. She started practicing STOTT PILATES® years ago, and found that it is the most effective exercise to tone up the muscles and to improve the body alignment.

To meet the needs of different instructors as well as serious Pilates practitioners, workshops in different topics will be organized from time to time. We also offer on-site workshops for other clubs or institutions.

We also sell Pilates equipment. If you need equipment, manuals or DVD from STOTT PILATES®, you may check with us for available stocks.
Pilates is a system of over 500 controlled exercises that engage the mind and condition the total body. It is a balanced blend of strength and flexibility training that improves posture, reduces stress and creates long, lean muscles without bulking up. Pilates works several muscle groups simultaneously through smooth, continuous motion, with a particular concentration on strengthening and stabilizing the core (the abdomen, back and pelvic girdle region, sometimes referred to as the "powerhouse"). The focus is on quality of movement rather than quantity, which makes one feel invigorated rather than exhausted after a session. Pilates takes a balanced approach so that no muscle group is overworked and the body works as an efficient, holistic system in sport and daily activity. Pilates exercises can be performed on a mat or on specialized equipment such as a Pilates Reformer, Pilates Cadillac and Ladder Barrel.
Pilates can be beneficial for virtually all ages, fitness levels and body conditions. The method is like a bridge between physical fitness and physical therapy, and can be adapted, modified and customized for individual needs. Some advanced moves and sequences seem to demand youthful energy yet others are manageable for even the frailest physique. It's more about fitness condition than age. One's chronological number doesn't necessarily limit one's movement capabilities - sometimes a 75 year old can perform contortions on the Cadillac while a 20 year old struggles with a simple roll up.
It's not a matter of one being better than another. The fundamental Pilates workout can be performed on a Pilates mat alone, and great results can be achieved through beginner, intermediate and advanced moves. However, the various equipment pieces such as the Reformer, Cadillac and Chair incorporate light spring resistance that works like concentric and eccentric muscle contractions to safely sculpt, tone and stretch the muscles. The Arc Barrels and Ladder provide support that allows you to safely manipulate your body to stretch and engage muscles otherwise challenging to isolate. Smaller Pilates equipment pieces such Flex bands, Fitness circles and Stability balls also provide an element of variety and focus to a Pilates regimen. A complete and satisfying workout can involve exercises on the mat alone or can be combined with various pieces of specially designed Pilates equipment. Each session can offer variety so that no two workouts are alike.
Try to work out 2-4 times a week, taking a day off in between sessions to rest or enjoy some kind of cardiovascular activity (walking, bicycling, swimming). This kind of regular, consistent practice will help you make the mind-body connection and integrate the various Pilates principles. You should start seeing and feeling results in about 10 to15 sessions.
Ideally your Pilates instructor should be certified through a comprehensive Pilates training program, one comprised of lectures, observation, practice, hands-on apprenticing plus a written and practical examination. This level of training is especially important if you are going to be working out on any of the specialized Pilates equipment - some courses only cover mat exercises while others educate trainers in the full range of apparatus. Find out if your trainer is educated in handling clients with specific injuries or body conditions that might warrant a modified approach. A professional Pilates instructor should keep up with the latest developments in exercise science, choreography, small prop usage and more through continuing education workshops. Whether you are working out in a group setting or one-on-one personal training, make sure your Pilates instructor is confident, knowledgeable, responsive and personable so you can have a safe and effective experience.
What kind of classes can I take in a Pilates studio?
Every Pilates studio, health club and fitness facility has its own program, however the following types of classes are often available.
Group mat class: This is a great place for beginners to start, and a fun, social way to continue Pilates practice. Ideally these classes have a manageable student-teacher ratio (ideally less than 10 students) so the instructor can monitor each individual's form and progress.
Group Reformer class: With the advent of smaller, more economical Reformers, more and more fitness clubs are adding group Reformer classes to their Pilates roster. However, smaller group size is recommended. STOTT PILATES recommended 6 students at maximum.
Session for 2 students: These small group sessions are a little more economical per participant than a private session, but still allows for plenty of individual assessment, guidance and monitoring. Various mat and equipment exercises can be approached in these sessions.
Private one-on-one session: A personal training session is the most effective way to learn, practice and perfect your Pilates performance. The instructor devotes undivided attention to your specific needs and develops a custom program for optimum results.
Will I lose weight through Pilates exercises?
In essence, Pilates exercise is not a cardiovascular workout and burning calories is not its main focus. However, in conjunction with a sensible diet and some cardio work such as brisk walking, bicycling, aerobics or swimming, Pilates can factor into a weight loss program.
Pilates exercises help strengthen, sculpt and tone the body while building long, lean muscles. Whether the number on the scale goes down or not, you will tend to look and feel better through continued Pilates practice.
Can I do Pilates if I'm pregnant?
There is a lot of debate on the subject of Pilates and pregnancy and exercise in general. Generally speaking, moderate exercise is safe throughout a normal, healthy pregnancy and many gentle Pilates exercises are appropriate. However, keep the following cautions in mind.
Do not over-exert the abdominal muscles to avoid diastasis recti (separation of the abdominal muscles).
Take care of you lower back, which can be strained with the weight of the fetus.
Avoid all Pilates exercises that require you to lie on your back. The American Council of Obstetrics and Gynecology cautions women in the second trimester of pregnancy against doing any exercises that require this position as it can compromise the vascular system of both the mother and fetus.
Do not over-stretch, as relaxin and progesterone levels increase during pregnancy causing the ligaments around the joints to become lax, loose and vulnerable.
Be aware that your center of gravity and therefore your sense of balance have changed.
Do not start a brand new exercise regimen in the first trimester.
To be safe during pregnancy, only practice Pilates under the guidance of a professional Pilates instructor who has been trained to teach women in this condition.
We also offer customized Pilates training and workshops to different countries, including but not limited to Thailand. For enquiries, you may call or email to our Hong Kong Studio. Or you can direct it to K. Chanthip in Bangkok via phone at 668-555-06789.

Today is Iris' last day of being a one year old.
We celebrated her birthday's eve by putting a candle in her piece of (this) banana bread at breakfast this morning. Which was rather thrilling for her.
Until, that is, Indigo nervously warned her not to get too close to the flame.
And on to happier things, like a new dress for the (almost) birthday girl.
I actually modified the puppet show pattern first for this dress. I used polka dot in ocean by dear stella.
And then there were the buttons. Oh those buttons. I decided to buy extra special ones (here). And being the anti-hoarder that I can to be, I ordered exactly the number I needed. Rather than, you know, ordering a spare button or two.
I had finished the dress and had hand-sewed the buttons on the cuffs. It was midnight and I contemplated settling in and sewing the other seven. I told Dan if I didn't sew them then, one of the kids might accidentally lose one of the buttons.
But that's ridiculous. That's never happened before.
The following day, Jude and I were working on his grammar lesson together on the couch. He was reading to me while I was sewing on the back buttons. I had the buttons in a padded envelope next to me, which he dumped upside down, thinking it was empty.
The buttons fell into the couch. I took off the cushions and realized they had somehow fallen through a hole into the inside of the couch, where the springs are. Let's just say it wasn't pretty and after fishing for them and cutting up my arm on the springs, I still didn't have my buttons.
When Dan came home, he put on leather gloves and dug in, determined to find my missing buttons. And he did find all of them... except for one.
So I resigned myself to ordering more buttons. I waited another two weeks and this time ordered a few to spare.
Love the dress, especially with those yellow buttons...!
Yes, those buttons were worth it!
A pretty dress for a sweet girl! Happy Birthday to her!
Happy birthday newly-two Iris! I love how the candle photos tell a story . . . you captured it perfectly! And your button story made me laugh as I do the exact same thing! My husband always asks, "Why didn't you order a few extra?" I'm still learning . . . :) But you're right - those buttons are just perfect so it was a good call to order more. A beautiful birthday dress indeed!
Oh, happy birthday! I really like the idea of celebrating their birthday eve.
Happy birthday! She is so cute and I'm very familiar with how a moment can change for the dramatic just as you captured it. Your button story made me laugh (sorry) but the dress is a triumph!
Oh the buttons! Of course that has to happen with something simple like buttons. But you won in the end! Take that.
Holy gorgeousness! The dress is perfect, especially with the hard own buttons. Happy Birthday to your littlest - time is a speedster of epic proportions!
Adorable! And so true: no outfit IS complete without safety glasses.
another perfectly gorgeous dress! the buttons are indeed wonderful. happy very late birthday to your little doll! | 2019-04-18T16:32:45Z | http://www.stitched-together.com/2013/10/a-modified-puppet-show-dress-for-almost.html |
Lechea maritima Leggett ex B.S.P.

Situated on a SW facing hill just to the SE of Blairvockie Farm, this rectangular single storey building, of random rubble with red sandstone cills and lintels, is situated in the NE corner of a roughly rectangular walled enclosure. This later 19th century sheep dipping shed is an excellent, little-altered example of its rare type.
The 5-bay W elevation has a timber-boarded door to the 2nd bay from the right; the remainder of bays have timber-louvred windows. The N gable has 2 doorways with modern timber half gates which give access for sheep to timber pens within. The E elevation has 4 bays, 1 of which has a blocked opening, the 3 others having timber-slatted window openings. To the S gable is a single timber-boarded door, approached by a stone flag path. The roof is pitched with graded slates, and there is a coped stone stack to the head of the S gable.
The interior of the shed retains a flagstone floor, a brick dipping channel which has been modernised with concrete parapets, and a dip heating boiler with a large earthenware basin.
The surrounding enclosure is formed of random rubble walling with rough saddleback coping; it is divided by similar walling into 3 section, 1 large area to the W and 2 smaller areas adjacent to the dipping shed. | 2019-04-25T08:23:45Z | https://britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/200398486-blairvockie-farm-sheep-dipping-shed-and-enclosure-walls-forth-and-endrick-ward |

Directed energy weapons under development by the Air Force and others can impose both high heat flux and large overall heat load demands on their cooling systems, up to 1000 W/cm2 and 100 kW respectively. TDA proposes to implement an ammonia-based spray cooling system to meet these demands. Our system is a novel two-phase thermal cycle that avoids the disadvantages of both mechanically pumped loops and heat pipes. This thermal management system is essentially passive, using self-generated fluid forces to promote the circulation of the working fluid, thereby eliminating the weight and power draw penalties associated mechanically-pumped systems as well as providing sufficient fluid pumping pressure capability to implement high heat flux spray cooling with insensitivity to g-loading. The proposed high heat flux cooling technology is applicable not only to heat removal from military directed empergy weapons but to high-power commercial eletronics, communications, computer and power-management markets. In addition, smaller versions of the cooling cycle are useful in cooling high performance chips and multi-chip modules. | 2019-04-20T17:13:19Z | https://sbirsource.com/sbir/awards/11898-high-power-electric-weapons-cooling |

Escaping mediocre manhood will require awareness of how you are showing up as man, what isn’t working for you, the humility to admit it and the choice to seek something more.
How each of us as men have become the man we are has so much to do with the patterns of manhood that we were shown. These patterns were ingrained into us going to the heart of our being.
The word ‘pattern’ is from the same original word for the words; father; papa and patriarch. Our father is literally our pattern, our ‘patron’ Saint, our admission into the ‘patriarchy’. Each of us as men is running a kind of emotional operating system that came to us via our fathers. Our father got it from his father, and so on and on.
These patterns also exist in us also through meta-soul aspects that we are connected to, from other lifetimes. These archetypal records are like music record albums that are then played on us as the record players, or to be more up to date, like mp3 files that we download and play, but are not actually expressions of our higher self, but rather energies that our higher self is drawing to our attention for resolve.
It is only as the contents of all this,…let’s call it our EOS (Emotional Operating System) become conscious and brought up into our awareness, that we can even begin to move out of mediocrity in our manhood.
This alone is a big step.
Many men have a weird codependent relationship between them as men whereby they agree not to speak any ‘negativity’ towards their fathers. What this really is, is an agreement to keep the patriarchy intact from generation to generation. Only as you refuse to participate in the insanity will you find a beginning ground to leave the insanity. This means you’re going to have get critical about dad and his pattern as it lives in you. You don’t need to be nasty about it. You don’t need to dwell here any longer than you do, but you can’t escape owning this arising awareness. Your critique will need to be honest enough and vocal enough to exit the insanity.
You don’t owe your dad a thing, and an emotionally healthy dad doesn’t expect a thing in return for his role and years as a father. Now, after this healthy completion of the childhood phase, dad and son can go on to forge a new relationship with the old one completing.
Only now, after this death and rebirth, can new patterns be explored and come to be a part of a new EOS.
Men want more. It’s in them at their very core. Exploring this more will be finding, feeling and healing the aspects of your EOS that no longer serve your most authentic version of yourself arising. | 2019-04-19T12:55:56Z | https://soulfullheartblog.com/2017/10/27/mediocre-manhood/ |

With a population of 148 million and revenue largest economy in the continent after South Africa, the state of Nigeria’s economy is a bundle of extreme contradictions. The united states sources 10% of its crude imports from abundant oil fields in the Niger Delta, a region that is also here is where hula one of the largest know natural gas reserves in the world. Despite these natural endowments, Nigeria is crippled with rampant poverty and depressing macroeconomic indicators and human development indices. Unemployment is endemic and more than 54% of its population lives on less than $1 on a daily basis. Decades of political turmoil, civilian unrest and large scale government mismanagement are largely to blame for this state of Nigerian business.
The return of democracy in 1999 paved the way for economic reforms as well as the adoption of an ambitious plan to take Nigeria to the top 20 world economies by 2020. A massive subsequent reprioritisation of economic policy initiatives has brought home tangible results: currency reserves grew fivefold between 2003 and 2006, while GDP growth averaged more than 7%. However, and because of long-standing systemic imbalances, per capita GDP dipped from $444 in 1997 to $430 in 2004, even while poverty levels actually extended.
The bulk of think has been Nigeria’s overdependence on oil and gas exports that fetched it an estimated $600 billion in the last five decades, but made little difference to the non-oil sector, which floundered in a climate of policy negligence and inadequate financial and technical support. The thrust of Nigeria’s renewed economic objectives must be on entrepreneurship development, taking into account its mammoth human resource capability, and in a manner that makes inclusive yet rapidly accelerated economic growth possible. Weaning away dependence on non-renewable resources with the simultaneous promotion of micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) is crucial to achieving both the 2020 objective and Nigeria’s Millennium Development Goals.
MSMEs have been in command of the rapid growth of having a multitude of economies around the world, historically beginning while UK and America to gradually Europe, Latin America and lately in considerable parts of South and East Asia. Currently, more than 90% of all enterprises in the world are estimated to be MSMEs, accounting for up to 80% of total employment prospects. In OECD countries, the MSME component is as high as 97% of total business activity, contributing between 40% and 60% of GDP1 in member countries. These statistics hide lots of ideas for Nigeria, in the context from the economic development targets.
First among them is the fact that wholesome MSME growth is fundamental to your expansion of rural economies as part of sustained macroeconomic development. MSMEs comprise a diverse mix of agriculture-based, production, services and trade sectors; classified for the basis of asset value and employee base on a given scale of maximum and minimum scores each counts. They often represent an extreme variety on the subject of of size and structure, right from rural artisan guilds, through small machine shops to emerging software and IT firms. Effectively by definition dynamic and comprise a wide associated with growth-oriented skill sets, with special needs in relation to its innovative solutions, technology and equipment and knowledge up-gradation. The central requirement to promote them, however, is progress of a viable scams with built-in ease of access for small and medium enterprises.
Despite this initial euphoria, the overall Nigerian MSME Registration Fees in India productivity and growth potential remains acutely minimal. Business development services continue to be generally underdeveloped in terms of projected potential, specially poor in rural areas outside at this point urban focus revolves. Besides inherent infrastructural deficits, MSME growth rates are being further affected by connected with entrepreneurial knowledge, specially the ability to identify rewarding business odds. | 2019-04-22T20:07:53Z | http://lenna.stopthevax.com/entrepreneurship-and-msme-you-can-for-economic-growth-and-wealth-creation/ |
NEWARK, N.J. — Last season, the Blue Jackets seamlessly weaved three trade-deadline acquisitions into their lineup.
Thomas Vanek, Ian Cole and Mark Letestu blended in as if they had been around all season, and the Blue Jackets ripped off 10 straight wins on their way to a playoff appearance.
What’s happening this season, after four deadline additions, appears to be the opposite — despite escaping from an underwhelming performance Tuesday night with a big 2-1 shootout win over the injury-riddled New Jersey Devils.
This game did nothing to alleviate that issue, even though Cam Atkinson scored the game’s first goal just 52 seconds in and later scored the first goal of the shootout, which was clinched by Artemi Panarin’s goal in the second round.
The Devils, missing a lot of NHL talent, mostly controlled the game. If it weren’t for Bobrovsky making 16 saves in the third period — plus two more in overtime and on both of New Jersey shootout attempts — it could have been a much different story.
Even with the win, there are still concerns heading into a home-and-home set Thursday and Saturday against the Pittsburgh Penguins, who won in overtime Tuesday and are two points ahead of the Blue Jackets.
The Jackets moved into the second wild card in the Eastern Conference with the win, but their hold on that spot was contingent on the outcome of a late game for the Montreal Canadiens at Los Angeles. The Penguins will hang onto one of the two wild cards regardless of the Canadiens’ result.
Despite Atkinson’s quick goal, they weren’t ready to go against the Devils, who were missing nearly half of their roster because of injuries, including top-liners Taylor Hall, Nico Hischier and Kyle Palmieri, plus top-pair defenseman Sami Vatanen.
The Blue Jackets were limited to four shots in the first period and endured a stretch of 15:48 between shots spanning the first and second periods. They also got burned while clinging to a 1-0 lead late in the second, allowing Travis Zajac to tie it with 3:00 left. | 2019-04-20T02:14:52Z | https://www.dispatch.com/sports/20190305/blue-jackets-2-devils-1-so--struggles-continue-against-patchwork-devils |

Tame Impala make psychedelic hypno-groove melodic rock music intended for moving one's body to and for keeping still and observing other forms of movement. The Perth based band consists of members Kevin Parker, Dom Simper and Jay Watson. An EP of five home recorded tracks: Beginning with Desire Be, Desire Go's, Slide Through My Fingers, Half Full Glass Of Wine and 41 Mosquitoes Flying In Formation's is due out soon.
The Vines greet the world with the kind of blinking, wide eyed enthusiasm of a band just out of the garage band when in reality they experienced an accelerated career, lived out very publicly in a whirlwind of brilliant pop records, legendary gigs and gruelling world tours. In six short years released four albums: Highly Evolved, Winning Days, Vision Valley and Melodia. Melodia features fourteen new songs, including new single He’s A Rocker.
In 2006 Grizzly Bear released their first album Yellow House. One year ago band members, singer/songwriter Ed Droste, drummer Christopher Bear, bassist Chris Taylor and singer/songwriter/guitarist Daniel Rossen began the recording process for their latest album Veckatimest, a diverse collection of songs including hits Dory, Ready, Able and Foreground.
Irish band Ash has celebrated 19 years in the industry. Formed by members Timothy James Arthur Wheeler, Mark Alexander Hamilton and Richard Wilson McMurray in 1997, Ash released several albums such as Trailer, 1977, Free All Angels, Cosmic Debris, Meltdown and Commando and most recently they revealed their A-Z Series: 26 singles in one year, a single for each letter of the alphabet, one release every fortnight. The first taster was free download Return Of White Rabbit.
The style of American band the Scissor Sisters draws from disco, glam rock, pop and the club scene of New York City. Consisting of members Jake Shears and Ana Matronic, Babydaddy, Del Marquis and Randy Real (who joined in replacement of Paddy Boom), the Scissor Sisters achieved a number of chart hits with their debut album Scissor Sisters and their single I Don't Feel Like Dancin' was the fourth best-selling single in the UK in 2006. | 2019-04-23T06:20:27Z | https://www.sunshinecoastdaily.com.au/news/splendour-grass-band-profiles-2/562805/ |

It's time for the last Pass Or Pages reveal of 2017! We're so grateful to our agent panel for taking the time to critique these entries. We hope you can find something to help you in your quest for an agent, even if you don't write middle grade!
Rhi’s village lies isolated, surrounded by a mysterious and deadly mist sent by the gods as punishment for the way humans abused the planet – or so the citizens have been told. The villagers’ lives are overseen by a trusted council of Elders who claim to be channelling the will of those same gods and guiding the populace towards redemption. In reality, as Rhi discovers, they are hiding several alarming truths, including the fact that the outside world still exists. Rhi tries to share what he has discovered [MLS5] and is branded a dangerous traitor. [MLS6] Faced with no other option, he heads into the mist to find the outside world and bring back proof of the Elders’ lies.
Nothing about this concept or character stands out or grabs me.
I don’t really get enough about the main character in this to spark my interest. The world building sounds cool, but I don’t get where the story is going or why this character is the one to follow through the story. Those need to be addressed for this to be a good query. I’d pass here, unless after reading a few lines in the sample it turns out to be really good.
[MLS2]: Titles should be in ALL CAPS.
[MLS3]: Fourteen is a tricky age, as it hovers between MG and YA. Tread carefully!
[MLS4]: This is too vague. Give us specifics to the plot/story!
[MLS5]: How does he discover it?
[MLS7]: Need more specifics here: who kidnaps him? Why is he being sold into slavery?
[MLS8]: What tragedy? Again, we need more story-specific examples here.
[MLS9]: Typically, you want to end your plot summary with the stakes: what’s at stake for your protagonist and the world at large. So… If he brings proof of the real world back to the village, what happens? Will his people be freed of the Elders’ rule? Who’s to say they won’t be happy/prefer to stay where they are?
For three seasons now he had spent his days sat at the very boundaries of his world. Whatever the weather, the sheep needed watching, and Rhi had sat through wind and rain, unrelenting sunshine and bitter frost. With each day his resentment grew. There has to be more than this? He thought to himself, as he stared unseeing toward the woolly creatures before him.
[BG1]: I’d stop reading here and give the author a pass.
[MLS1]: As a reader, this line is distancing me from your character's immediate emotions. Here's an example of what you could write instead: For days, his father hadn't spoken to him. He supposed his father had said all he wanted to in the hours after the ceremony--jabbing a calloused finger at Rhi and prattling on about putting the village's needs above your own.
[MLS2]: Your query said he’s fourteen?
[MLS3]: While the concept of the story is interesting, I found myself not fully invested in the character. I think by working on his voice and the immediacy of descriptions, that would make the reader bond more quickly with the story and character--which could be done with a few additional rounds of editing.
MY BEST FRIEND RUNS VENUS (45,000 words) is an upper MG science fiction novel combining the virtual setting of READY PLAYER ONE with the adventurous planet-hopping of JACOB WONDERBAR. Thank you for your time and consideration.
[MLS1]: Haha! I love this.
[MLS2]: This line sparked my interest. Well done!
[MLS4]: Great building/implication of stakes for the world.
[MLS5]: Great stakes and way to end the plot summary. I think the only thing I’d love hashed out a bit more is Kade’s friendship with Tamika.
It wasn't the first time Kade had hacked the Venusian maintenance system, but it was one of the best. [MLS1] If he had to put a number on it (and there was very little he didn't put a number on), he'd give it a 9.7. The 9.8 and 9.9 scores were reserved for something epic he hadn't thought of yet, and 10.0 was for the day he would finally reprogram how his robotic body looked.
Still, assuming he didn't get caught, his skills today would land him on a totally different planet. Maybe that deserved the 9.8 slot after all. If Tamika would hurry and get here, he could ask for her opinion.
Kade straightened against a metal door embedded in a burnt orange mountainside and flicked his left wing. A line of glowing text scrolled across his view: 5:03:34pm. He'd checked the time fifty-three seconds ago, but whenever he wasn't reading data, he felt lost. The adults called it unhealthy. Healthy people could watch a sunset without calculating its luminosity every thirty seconds, but healthy people sounded boring. Besides, the numbers comforted him. Nobody got weirded out by constantly seeing their own hands, did they? His numbers were just that--an extra set of hands. Or wings. Or whatever.
I like the voice here but just don’t think this is for me.
I want to see this in my inbox stat. Please send the first 50 pages to [email protected] and include Pass Or Pages in the subject line.
[MLS1]: While this paragraph is sweet, I found myself wanting a different opening—something more tangible than scoring his hacking capabilities. Or perhaps in the middle of a scene with the characters moving/doing something?
It’s not easy being a mechanically obsessed, five-foot-nine seventh-grade girl. It’s a million times worse when you’re also dealing with your mom's death and a dad who can't handle it. Edie wants nothing more than to escape, and she gets her chance—big time—when she's accidentally dragged along with a team of kids to a parallel Earth. [MLS1] Just when a curious mob is closing in, an emergency recall kicks in and takes them back to our Earth and a hidden underground facility.
Shifting between worlds takes a physical toll, but Edie doesn’t care. This is the first place where she’s ever felt like she belonged and her talents are valued [MLS3], and she'll do whatever it takes to join up—even if it means a risky return mission to the parallel Earth.
SHIFTING GEARS is a 57,000 word upper MG sci-fi novel with series potential. It would appeal to fans of action-heavy sci-fi and fantasy grounded in our world like Dianne K. Salerni's THE EIGHTH DAY and Gordon Korman's MASTERMINDS.
This is a well structured query—I get a good sense of the MC and her problems, as well as why they’re relevant to the plot. However, I don’t think I’m the right agent for this kind of book, and would pass based on the type of story, though I’d give a look at the writing.
[MLS1]: How so? We need more specifics here. Is it a school field trip gone wrong? What do you mean a parallel Earth? For clarity, I wonder if it would be handy to name the parallel Earth in the query (“… team of kids to a parallel Earth, [NAME].”).
[MLS3]: What talents? I’d love to have this mentioned earlier in the plot summary.
Graduation at Bradford Middle School is a big fat hairy deal.
Which is why I was sitting on an uncomfortable folding chair on the gym floor on a Saturday, wearing a dress that was making me itch in unmentionable places and wishing I was anywhere else. [MLS1] Our principal had informed us seventh graders that our presence was required to support our graduating eighth graders whether we liked it or not—and I swear she'd looked right at me when she said it.
Mrs. Newell started off with a very long speech about promising futures [MLS2] and all these shining faces looking up at her. It didn't seem to occur to her that maybe they were shining because it was, like, eighty-five degrees in the gym. At least I didn't have to wear a full gown, like the eighth graders. I sneakily wiped the sweat off my forehead with the sleeve of my dress and did my best to look like the picture of supportiveness until Mrs. Newell got to the part about parental involvement being key to student success.
I like this voice. Please send the first 30 pages to [email protected] and include Pass Or Pages in the subject line.
[MLS1]: Love this line! However, be careful on your use of ‘was’/’were’—try to swap those out for active verbs instead.
[MLS2]: I’d love more specifics here. I think this is a great opportunity for additional elements of humor.
One day, twelve-year-old orphan Nick finds a golden stone with a mysterious symbol in the woods near their foster home. [MLS1] After his twin sister Hazel vanishes later that night, the stone becomes the main culprit. [MLS2] Determined to find his sister, Nick treks to the local university in search of answers. It turns out their father had been a prominent archeologist [MLS3] who also vanished mysteriously while investigating ancient ruins in the Appalachian Mountains when the twins were infants.
Nick discovers his father had left behind a cryptic journal, which details a fantastic world of ancient gods and mythical creatures from millenniums past. With the help of a runaway thief named Scurvy, Nick deciphers the codes in the journal and embarks on a journey to Orbis, a magic realm accessible in ancient locations, including the Pyramids of Giza, Stonehenge, and Atlantis. [MLS4] But a secret society of dark magic [MLS5] haunts the realm, kidnapping folks from Nick’s world—and the twins appear to be their next target. [MLS6] Nick and Hazel must find their father and escape before they, too, become trapped in the realm forever.
BEACON OF LIGHT: THE FALLEN ORDER is a 60,000-word MG fantasy told in multiple POV. The novel, in which the show Gravity Falls meets Rick Riordan's THE RED PYRAMID, will appeal to kids who enjoy fantasy with cryptology and mystery elements at every turn.
I’m intrigued by this, but I’m not a big fan of portal stories. If done right, they can be great. Mostly, though, they’re not well done, and I end up passing on them. This alone gives me hesitation on asking for pages, but the idea is intriguing enough to take a look at the beginning. However, more about the MC is needed in the query. What does he want?
[MLS1]: Good opening line! My only (slight) red flag here is that tons of stories use an object as a launching point for the story (magical stone, necklace, etc.).
[MLS2]: How so? I’d like this cleared up a bit more.
[MLS3]: Do they not know/have a relationship with their father? If so, I think that needs to be clearer.
[MLS4]: Do you mean the lost Atlantis?
[MLS5]: You say magic/magical a lot in this paragraph. Consider varying word choice here.
[MLS6]: Do we know why? Or could we hint at why?
On cloudy days, children were discouraged from playing on the hills near the foster home. Rising well above their surroundings, the tall, steep slopes were magnets for lightning in thunderstorms.
That never stopped Nick Beacon. On one particularly cloudy and windy evening in early March, he lay on the grass at the top of the tallest hill, feeling the cool breeze through his t-shirt. From there, he could see over the woods, which separated the foster home and the town of Hillsboro. He closed his eyes and imagined himself flying above the hilltops to someplace far, far away—away from the small town, over the forests and mountains, until he reached the rock-covered coast of Maine.
Nick had only been to the ocean once for a school field trip, but it remained his favorite place. There was something extraordinary about being at the edge of the world, and the distant lands that lay on the other side of the vast waters. He longed to travel to new places, like the adventurous explorers in movies.
The dinner bell sounded in the distance. With a jolt, Nick snapped out of his daydream and hurried back down the hill. He couldn’t be late to dinner again. The last time he was late, Mrs. Agatha had made him clean the entire attic as punishment. He swore he could still feel the cobwebs in his hair after two showers.
This is a bit similar to other things I’ve read. The writing felt a bit stiff.
This is pretty good writing. It’s not something I’d immediately reject, but after sitting here thinking about it, it’s not something I would request either. I’d write the author a more personal note than a simple form rejection, tell him or her to keep at it and query me again in the future.
Great opening! I enjoyed it. While the writing is great, I probably would not have asked for more pages because the story does hit a number of typical MG scenarios/tropes. | 2019-04-19T19:16:02Z | https://operationawesome6.blogspot.com/2017/09/ |

FCS 8th grade students taught science lessons to 3rd-5th grade students on Tuesday, March 3rd. Groups of eighth graders visited each of the 3rd, 4th and 5th grade classrooms and presented two lessons: Volcanoes and Weight Displacement. The highlight of the volcano lesson was watching the volcano “erupt”. The younger students were also amazed how much weight the towers made of sticks were able to hold.
The 8th grade students spoke very well as they effectively instructed the younger students. As 8th grader Andres Ledon addressed the 5th graders, he commented, “It wasn’t that long ago I was sitting in this same classroom as a fifth grader.” It was a special experience for both groups, the younger and older students, today. | 2019-04-23T17:07:25Z | https://floridachristian.org/academics/fcs-eighth-graders-teach-elementary-science/ |
As a professional basketballer, Gordon Hayward currently plays for the Boston Celtics. Prior to joining the NBA team, this small forward spent seven seasons with the Utah Jazz. Find out more about him here including his wife, salary, career stats, body measurements, etc.
Gordon Hayward was born on the 23rd of March 1990 in Indiana and comes from a family of four consisting of his dad, Gordon Scott Hayward, his mom Jody Hayward and his twin sister, Heather. Hayward grew up in Brownsburg, a small town near Indianapolis, the capital of Indiana. He dreamt of playing in the NBA as early as the age of five and that dream was nurtured and encouraged by his parents.
However, Hayward faced a major challenge to his dream of playing in the NBA and that was his height. Both his parents were of average height, 5 feet 10 inches and doctors predicted that the highest he could aspire to was 6 feet 2 inches. As a result, his father/coach focused on training him on skills that will enable him to be a successful guard such as ball handling and passing skills. However, in his senior year, Hayward experienced a surprising growth spurt which saw him shoot up to 6 feet 8 inches and as such, he was able to play as a forward rather than as a guard.
Gordon Hayward had an impressive career in high school, leading his team to the 4A state championship title in dramatic fashion. With less than 3 seconds remaining on the clock and his team trailing by one point, he hoisted up the game-winning layup just as the buzzer went off giving his team a 51-49 victory. Unsurprisingly, he received offers of athletic scholarships from several universities but choose Butler University, a private university located in Indianapolis. He spent two impressive years at the college. In his first season, he averaged 13.1 points, 6.5 rebounds and 2.0 assists per game and was named the newcomer of the year. He equally had a stellar second season, averaging 15.5 points, 8.2 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game. This time, he was named the league player of the year.
Hayward’s outstanding performances earned him a call-up to the USA national team for the FIBA Under-19 championship in 2009. The team won the gold medal and Hayward was named as one of the best five players of the tournament. Due to his outstanding achievements, He received calls from different agents and scouts in the NBA and decided with his parents to cut his college career short and go professional. He submitted his name for the 2010 NBA draft and was picked in the first round by the Utah Jazz.
Gordon Hayward spent seven years (2010-2017) with the Utah Jazz, playing a total of 516 games for them and averaging 15.7 points, 3.4 assists and 4.1 rebounds per game. He had two particularly standout seasons with the Utah Jazz which was the 2014/2015 season and the 2016/2017 season.
In the 2014/2015 season, he averaged a career-high 19.3 points per game, adding 4.9 rebounds and 4.1 assists to that scoring tally. He also gave a monster performance while going head-to-head with LeBron James. Gordon got the best of James several times throughout the night, tallying 21 points and seven assists and he splashed home the deciding bucket at the buzzer for a 100-102 win over the Cleveland Cavaliers.
In the 2016/2017 season, he went on to average an impressive 21.9 points, 3.5 assists and 5.4 rebounds per game and earned his first invitation to the 2017 NBA All-Star game. After seven eventful years, Hayward parted ways with the Utah Jazz, joining the Boston Celtics in July 2017 on a four-year contract worth about $128,000,000.
Hayward, unfortunately, suffered a freak injury in his first game for the Celtics which was also the very first game of the 2017/2018 season. He collided with LeBron James while attempting an alley-oop pass and landed awkwardly on his left leg, shattering his ankle and injuring his tibia in the process. The injury forced him to miss the entire 2017/2018 season and he had to undergo surgery as well as months of difficult rehabilitation.
Hayward suffered another setback in May 2018 as the doctors informed him that he had to undergo a second surgery to remove the plate and screws around his left ankle after he complained of pains. This completely threw his rehabilitation timetable off course as well as his plan for a return to competitive play. At present, Hayward is back to training. It might take some time for him to get back into the groove of things but there are already indications that he will return to being the all-star player he once was.
Hayward has recorded a total of $87,007,793 in his salary earnings till date. In the 2017/2018 season alone, he was reportedly paid $29,727,900, making him the fourth highest paid player in the league. Additionally, he has also earned at least a million dollars in endorsement deals with various brands such as Nike, Unilever and eSport brand, HyperX.
Gordon Hayward is married to Indiana native, Robyn Hayward nee Van Vliet. The two reportedly started dating around July 2013 and got engaged five months later on the 24th of December 2013. They tied the knot on the 24th of May 2014 in a ceremony at St Simon the Apostle Catholic Church in Indianapolis.
The couple is blessed with two children Bernadette Marie, who was born on the 6th of June 2015, and Charlotte Margaret born on the 11th of July 2016. In July 2018, Robyn and Gordon announced that they are expecting a third child.
Gordon Hayward is 6 feet 8 inches tall, which is an astonishing 203 cm. He weighs 226 lb (102 kg). As a high school freshman, he was just a mere 5 feet 11 inches tall and as such, was in danger of not realizing his NBA dream.
But then, he experienced a growth spurt later, eventually topping 6 feet 8 inches in his senior year. His dad attributed this to divine intervention. | 2019-04-21T10:38:39Z | https://answersafrica.com/gordon-hayward-bio-wife-salary-height.html |
Anaheim general liability insurance is a great protection that is necessary for any small business or restaurant in California. Managing or owning an Anaheim company is a job that can be both stressful and rewarding. While the benefits are great, there are also many different issues that may come up while your CA business is in operation. Buying the right kinds of coverage to protect against these problems can save an owner a large degree of stress and a lot of money. Anaheim general liability insurance is one of the main types of protection that should be purchased.
California commercial liability insurance is coverage for businesses to protect them from lawsuits or claims that come up while the company is in operation. A number of business practices can lead to lawsuits and just about any venture in Anaheim runs the risk of legal charges. Because it can be nearly impossible to avoid or anticipate certain lawsuits, buying an appropriate level of general coverage is necessary. The owner that is prepared is the one that can continue running their company without worry. Finding the right types of coverage may be the key to locating the policy that best fits your particular venture.
Before purchasing an Anaheim general liability insurance plan, it is wise to take an in depth look at your business in order to determine areas that are most likely to lead to accidents. By understanding the types of claims most likely to come up, you can then order the policy that best fits your needs. This type of analysis is important in that there are many different coverage options for general liability insurance policies. The following are just a couple of the more common general liability insurance choices for owners in Anaheim.
Personal injury protection is a type of plan that will pay for the claims that are filed due to personal offenses committed by your business practices. For example, should an employee make a disparaging remark about a customer, that customer may wish to pursue legal retribution against your company. These charges are usually referred to as libel or slander, and they can be expensive and difficult to settle in court. Any company that employs a large number of individuals or deals with a high amount of customer service should look for an Anaheim general liability insurance plan with a high level of personal injury coverage.
Bodily injury is often a claim that is more rare but more expensive. These lawsuits result from physical injuries that are sustained by employees or clients while at work. Because the damages often include medical bills as well as legal charges, they can be extremely expensive. The wrong bodily injury claim can ruin an unprepared California venture. While any company should add bodily injury protection to their general liability insurance, a particularly dangerous business should buy an Anaheim general liability insurance policy with a large amount of coverage.
There are many other options for the owner that is looking to tailor a plan to their specific needs and risks. Talking with an agent may help you get the professional help you need to locate the very best Anaheim general liability insurance plan. These specialists will help you to compare the providers at your disposal and make the right choices.
CA is a state with many options for general liability insurance providers, some better than others. By locating and choosing the very best, you are likely to get a higher level of coverage and better rates and quotes. There are many resources available to shoppers looking for the very best Anaheim general liability insurance plans. Many of these resources are located online and easily accessible.
Third-party reviewers and agencies often provide reviews and ratings for people that are looking to order Anaheim general liability insurance. These reviews often present an unbiased and unfiltered view of a particular Anaheim provider. Reading the right reviews and ratings can help any customer decide which company to use for their own Anaheim business. Some providers may not have the foothold or ability to pay for large claims and it is very important to avoid these options. Look for the California choices that are most highly recommended and reviewed. Using these insurers will greatly reduce your risk of having a claim denied or ignored.
Our website may be another resource to help you in your search for the best options in Anaheim. Many different CA insurers are going to be competing for your business and offering a large variety of services and prices. Within minutes, you can locate the Anaheim general liability insurance package that perfectly fits your business and your budget. Your business needs to be protected and the sooner you find general liability insurance the better. | 2019-04-23T02:07:38Z | https://www.generalliabilityinsurance.org/anaheim.html |
At the recent SAP for Utilities event in Huntington Beach, SAP’s Stefan Wolf gave a presentation about SAP’s HANA in-memory database. I caught up with Stefan afterwards and talked to him about some of the ways HANA can be used by utility companies.
Tom Raftery: Hey everyone! We’re here at the SAP for Utilities event and I have with me Stefan Wolf from SAP. Stefan you gave a talk yesterday, where you were talking about the use of HANA for utilities. Can you give me a little synopsis of that talk?
Stefan Wolf: Absolutely!. Thank you Tom for giving me this opportunity. I think utilities these days are challenged by a lot of different requirements. There is lots of data coming through new channels like smart metering, smart grid, social networks. It’s pressure from the regulators, pressure from the public to get more information in real time, whether it’s a storm situation or just about my current bill, it’s mounting.
So they need the possibility to answer these in real time and manage the data and we have customers who are actually doing this today, with SAP tools. For example, one utility is using an SAP HANA solution to improve business process for energy settlement and they have achieved an improvement of a hundred times faster by moving certain steps of that process outside to a HANA box including the replication of the data.
So by just using HANA, they are now able to manage even when all their customers have smart meters and still running to a settlement process in the allowable timeframe. Other customers, for example have used HANA to optimize a collection process, by building a data mod in HANA to collect the information about the customers, the financial information, the surrounding information about the customers to now be much more, on time and on top of the information, and do the correction way more efficiently than before with manual error prone process.
Tom Raftery: Is there any customer facing technology using HANA?
Stefan Wolf: Yeah absolutely, so one example is a utility is using HANA to support their online portal, basically allow the customers to do bill simulations, and they draw their smart meter data from the back end system, from the legacy system into HANA and then run into HANA say, as a billing algorithm and within less than 4 seconds of overall process of getting the data and billing the data the customer sees a stimulated bill on the online portal. So it’s literally in real time.
Tom Raftery: Stefan I’ve heard that, there are data compression technologies in HANA as well, which reduce the size of the database how does this work?
Stefan Wolf: Absolutely, so we have one example, where a customer was using their business warehouse as a test case basically for moving into HANA and it had over 20 terabytes of data in their actual business warehouse and they moved it into HANA and it ended up with less than 700 GB. That was possible but not needing quite a bit of the data which business warehouse typically needs because of the time it takes to load the data from the source system, or they’ve staging areas and so forth. And you have the segregation areas in business warehouse because it takes times to build those cubes. All of that is not necessary in HANA.
So you start with much less data to begin with and then in addition you have the compression factor HANA allows was which is typically between 4.0 and 5.0 to 1, so that reduced it so significantly from over 20 TB down to 700 GB.
Tom Raftery: So of course that makes it even faster again to analyze the data.
Stefan Wolf: Exactly, so now we have less data to store which you can analyze faster and you have an in memory which again improved the time. So between our previous in memory technology, business warehouse accelerator, which was although based on in-memory, but specifically only for BW available. And now HANA, we see even there an improvement of over five times of the reporting time and we see even 50 — effect of 50 increase of the performance compared to conventional business warehouse means.
Tom Raftery: Well, impressive. Stephan, that’s been great. Thanks very much. | 2019-04-18T23:29:41Z | https://utilitiesoftomorrow.com/tag/customer-data/ |

It is so easy to fall into the comparison trap. You can look around and quickly believe you don't have enough. In our culture, attaining more is valued. You will be inundated with advertisements trying to convince you to buy a certain product. People who live in the spotlight will glamorize the many things they own. People around you might unknowingly make you feel like you need more.
But there is an antidote to it all. Live simply, be grateful, and give generously.
The truth is, you are among the wealthiest people to ever live. Even in what might seem like the little we have, we are still among the top 2% of the wealthiest people in the world. You have a God who has graciously allowed you to be born where you were and has graciously given you so many gifts and comforts and luxuries. We've been given so much grace in order to be grace to others. There are people down the street and around the world who are desperately lacking. And we can give abundantly and generously.
Don't believe the lie that you have to have more in order to be able to give. Generosity is a reflection of the heart. Be willing to give your stuff away knowing it is all temporal and that God loves a cheerful giver. Your life will be better for it.
"Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." | 2019-04-23T16:34:02Z | https://www.sarahconnatser.com/dear-daughters/give-generously |

The 2010 season shouldn’t be filled with lots of highlights for the Broncos’ Josh McDaniels, left, and the Redskins’ Mike Shanahan.
Broncos coach Josh McDaniels has formally asked permission from the Buffalo Bills to interview their running game coordinator/running backs coach Eric Studesville.
Even though the Bills recently released their entire coaching staff, many assistants like Studesville are still under contract with the Bills and permission is still needed to interview.
Studesville would become only the Broncos’ second running backs coach in 16 years. Bobby Turner, the Broncos’ running backs coach for the previous 15 seasons, recently left to become associate head coach for the Washington Redskins and head coach Mike Shanahan.
Prior to his six seasons with the Bills, Studesville was the New York Giants’ running backs’ coach from 2001-03. His 1,000-yard runners include Tiki Barber, Willis McGahee, Marshawn Lynch and Fred Jackson, who has developed from an undrafted rookie from Division III Coe in 2003. Jackson spent two years playing in indoor football leagues, and a third year in NFL Europa before getting his chance with the Bills in 2007. | 2019-04-19T14:29:12Z | https://www.denverpost.com/2010/01/18/broncos-interested-in-bills-rb-coach/ |

Intended initially as a documentary, Sissako realized that such an attempt couldn't be realized when people would not be able to speak freely with jihadis still present in the area. The production was moved to Mauritania and changed into a fictional accounting reliant on the events which took place in Mali.
To Sissako, himself a Muslim, the other hostage in Timbuktu is Islam. He says he doesn’t recognise his own faith in Ansar Dine. Their violence “makes Islam into something imaginary”.
Like Sissako's superb 2002 film, Waiting for Happiness, Timbuktu is an understated film with subtle moments of beauty matched against moments of quiet desperation. It's a movie with deep compassion for the lives of those it examines. It's sometimes bleak, but never despairing.
Is it one of the 25 best films of the century? Who knows for sure? All I can say is I wouldn't really argue against anyone counting it as such.
Al Jazeera link to a video interview with Sissako on his film and the events in Mali that inspired them.
New Yorker review of the film.
Ah, I almost forgot. A word of warning about the film, it does contain a scene of a cow being killed. It isn't especially gory or anything, but it does appear to be genuine, not faked.
I saw this movie referenced in the list of the best 25, and had to find it. Glad I did. I have known a Muslim family for a long time and I can see them in a similar way dealing with the contrasts of the world(s) we live in. Timbuktu is an expression of the clash between those worlds - eg the mobile phones, the motor bikes, shariah law and what is of god.
I don't think they'd appreciate the message it has, though. I just loved the football match, but then, I got it.
It really was about love, in the end. | 2019-04-22T12:58:08Z | https://fanfare.metafilter.com/9406/Timbuktu |
Golfing communities abound in Naples, but Windstar is the only one that also features deep-water, bridge-free boating access to Naples Bay and the Gulf of Mexico. Windstar is directly across the bay from Port Royal.
The central attraction in most golf communities is the clubhouse. Windstar is unique in that it has two. One is situated on the Tom Fazio-designed championship golf course. The other is located on an island at the Southpointe Marina within the Windstar community.
There are 600 homes within the Windstar’s 450-acre, gated community. Seventeen neighborhoods feature coach homes, condos, villas, and single family homes available in a wide variety of floor plans and price ranges.
Neighborhoods include Admiral’s Watch, Clipper Cove, Compass Point South, Harrington Sound, Ketch Cay, Leeward Cay, Marina Cove, Morningstar, Northstar Villas, Somerset at Windstar, Southpointe Yacht Club, Spinnaker Pointe, Spyglass Pointe, Summerset, Windstar, Windward Cay, and Yacht Harbor Cove.
Admiral’s Watch, Compass Point South, Marina Cove, Morningstar, Spinnaker Pointe, and Windward Cay are home to low-rise condos. Northstar Villas is complemented by the villa homes of Somerset at Windstar. Windward Cay condos are in four-to-seven-story mid-rise buildings. Other neighborhoods feature single-family homes.
The country club is member-owned, but membership is optional, and play is open to residents and non-residents. The club offers three levels of membership. Full Golf offers unlimited golf privileges and access to all club amenities. A Social Golf membership includes unlimited golf from April 16th to November 14th and five rounds between November 15th and April 15th at the peak of the tourist season. Social memberships are available for the non-golfers who wish to take advantage of all the other amenities of the club.
Public school students living in Windstar attend Avalon Elementary School, Gulfview Middle School or Naples High School.
The shops and restaurants of Naples’ popular 5th Avenue are just three miles and only two left turns away. Residents enjoy the multiple cultural blessings of 5th Avenue, including a dozen different fine art galleries, more than thirty dining options from casual to world-class cuisine and more than a score of fashionable boutiques and fine jewelers.
At the end of a day shopping on 5th Avenue, sunning on the beach, playing tennis on one of the community’s six Har-Tru tennis courts, or playing a round of golf, many Windstar residents like to enjoy dining at the Sunset Bar & Grille, the more formal Bayside dining room, or the Keewaydin Grille and Terrace at the main clubhouse.
Even if Windstar were not one-of-a-kind, it would still be special. | 2019-04-22T08:02:31Z | https://www.ultrarealty.com/windstar-real-estate-naples.php |

Miami will see the opening of yet another food hall next week when the Lincoln Eatery drops anchor in South Beach.
The 9,600-square-foot food hall, located on the corner of Lincoln Lane and Meridian Avenue, will open mid-January with 14 food and drink concepts. The space, outfitted with glossy subway tiles and polished concrete floors, will include indoor and outdoor seating for 200.
Developed by real estate titan Terranova Corporation, the food hall has been in the works for more than two years. Many of its tenants are new to the market, bringing never-before-seen concepts to the neighborhood.
The goal of the Lincoln Eatery, according to Terranova founder and chairman Stephen Bittel, is to extend Lincoln Road’s footprint north, with the food hall as a focal point. That block already holds a Marshall’s and Macy’s and, in the past, has been home to several restaurants, a combination bar/laundry, and a tanning salon.
Later this year, the real estate company will open a rooftop terrace at the Lincoln Eatery in the project’s second phase, which will also house Michael Schwartz’s Genuine Pizza and the Cuban Coffee Cup.
Chill N: The South Florida-based ice cream shop will offer a counter complete with flash-frozen creams made from liquid nitrogen and a variety of toppings.
Fresh Garden Bowls: Here, try made-to-order salads, wraps, and juices with vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free alternatives.
Manhattan Paletas: The Mexican-based brand has served frozen fruit paletas for more than 50 years. The Lincoln Eatery will mark the company’s first South Florida location.
Marble & Rye: This contemporary take on a traditional New York-style deli will offer sandwiches, bagels, corned beef, and more.
Necessary Purveyors: Expect sandwiches, teas, and house-made granola with Southern flair.
Patagonia: Dig into traditional Argentinean pastries and sweets, including empanadas and medialunas, all made fresh daily.
The Tavern Bar: This will be the Lincoln Eatery’s central bar, slinging a long list of wine, beer, and cocktails.
Toast & More: The French bakery will serve a selection of savory and sweet tartines, French pastries, quiches, and other desserts.
TYO Sushi: The Japanese sushi spot will feature modern takes on traditional items.
XO Espresso Bar: This specialty coffee bar will offer coffee, wellness drinks, teas, and a menu of small bites and pastries.
The Lincoln Eatery joins an ever-growing list of Miami-area food halls, including La Centrale and Casa Tua Cucina at Brickell City Centre, Treats at Aventura Mall, St. Roch Market, and 1-800-Lucky. Other food halls on the horizon are Time Out Market, Central Fare at Brightline, and the Citadel Miami, which will debut at the end of the month.

In every state of the union there are some rather odd and old laws that are still technically 'on the books.' South Carolina has quite a few that are just silly, and not all of them are from 100 years ago.
I fondly remember the first time I got to vote in South Carolina, I was 18 and on the ballot was a measure to make it 'official' that caucasian people could marry non-caucasians in the state of South Carolina. It was technically illegal up until 1998.
This morning while trying to find the current sexting laws in South Carolina for an earlier story, I came across a list of 'Dumb Laws in South Carolina' and dumb laws from cities in South Carolina. While there was no context to the laws, stating whether or not they were technically overturned, it is obvious we don't abide by many of them today.
"A male over the age of sixteen years who by means of deception and promise of marriage seduces an unmarried woman in this State is guilty of a misdemeanor and, upon conviction, must be fined at the discretion of the court or imprisoned not more than one year."

This one makes sense, but is a law really necessary? And why do they specifically mention Chapin Memorial Library? Also, it's nice to know that one can get a permit for such activities. Read the full law here.

Owners shall be subject to arrest and the dogs may be impounded. (b) It shall be unlawful for an owner or keeper of any animal to take or permit the animal onto the right of way of Ocean Boulevard between 21st Ave. North and 13th Ave. South during the period from March 1st to September 30th of each year, except for the purpose of direct and expeditious crossing of the right of way.

A special lecture was on Sunday organised in honour of the 11 hijab-wearing female students of the International School, University of Ibadan.
The lecture which was tagged "BE FIRM" was held at the Islamic Centre, Bodija Ibadan.
In their separate lectures, the vanguard of hijab struggle at the Nigerian Law School, Barrister Firdaus Amasa, a gynaecologist from Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Dr Fatimah Rabiu, Sister Mutiat Orolu and Engineer Sherifah Balogun-Adeleye called on the school girls not to despair in determination to do what is right even when there are difficulties and opposition towards doing what is right.
The speakers enjoined young Muslims especially the hijab-wearing females to be diligent, obedient and respect the constituted authorities without necessarily compromising the tenets of their religion.
In her lecture, Sister Mutiat Orolu explained that wearing of hijab is not only a right of identity for female Mulims, it is globally appreciated as a dressing of honour for the Muslims.
Speaking in the same vein, Engineer Sherifah Balogun-Adeyeye noted that hijab wearing is not a barrier to being intellectually sound just as it doesn't hinder one's growyh and development.
Engineer Balogun-Adeyeye maintained that Muslims should imbibe good characters as enjoined by Islam as this would attract others to Islam and the Muslims.
Orolu, a certified Engineer charged Muslim parents and guardians to do proper mentoring of their children and wards so that they could be good ambassadors of Islam and their communities.
While speaking, Barrister Firdaus Amasa said there are challenges on the way to do the right thing noting that, that should not discourage one from doing it.
"I mplore the students and everyone generally to be firm and be steadfast in spite of challenges that they might face in life, they should rely on Allah. There a lot of challenges but with Allah, it will be possible"
Barrister Amasa called on the government to face other developmental issues rather than frowning at the use of hijab.
"And to the government and every other Nigerian, it is high time we stepped forward. The issue of Hijab should not raise dust as it is doing now. We should have moved above that stage. The issue of hijab should not cause problem because in civilized countries, things like this do not cause issues. You wear your hijab, you appear in the way your religions preach. Hijab should not be a thing that will cause issue in the society. We should be civilized and leave the barbaric era, face other more important issue so that we can progress. May Allah make it easy."
While speaking, Dr Fatimo Rabiu said the focus of the lecture was not just about the hijab but in other facets of human life, they should be firm.
Dr Rabiu, the hijab-wearing gynaecologist said, "It is not just about hijab, it transcends hijab. They need to be firm in whatever they do vis-à-vis their education, daily activities and domestic matters. It is all about being firm, being determined, not being intimidated; there are meant to be trials and tribulations they should make us turn all stumbling blocks to stepping stones to a greater height.
To our Governments, there are so many issues in which they are lagging behind. This hijab is one of them and we don’t just want them to take it as a wave of hand.We appreciate what they have done so far. I am from Lagos State I know the hijab matter in Lagos State with respect to nursing and my profession. I appreciate the government and I know they are going to do more."
The event which was organised by the University of Ibadan Muslim Student Society of Nigeria Brotherhood was attended by the 11 ISI students, the Chairman, ISI Muslim Parents'Forum, Alhajj Abdurrahman Balogun, Professor of Agric Extension and Rural Development, Luqman Akinbile, the National Ameer of MSSN, Dr Taofeek Yekini among others. | 2019-04-19T12:13:57Z | https://www.osundaily.com/2018/12/group-honours-hijab-wearing-isi.html |

A modern, easy-to-use and informative web application is key to any company’s succes.
It’s wise not to start developing these webpages from scratch but to use some kind of foundation previously developed. A suitable foundation is provided by Oracle’s Application Development Framework (ADF). It provides easy-to-use tools to display a database’s content on a web interface and to supply our users with a comfortable way to create, retrieve, update and delete data.
In this thesis we examine the model layer of ADF, since one of the first questions that arise when developing ADF applications is how we want to handle databases. Our two options are ADF Business Components (ADF BC) and Enterprise Java Beans (EJB), both supported by the framework. Our aim is to compare these options through creating the same funcionality with both.
After a general discussion of frameworks, the thesis presents the two technologies and through a sample application’s individual functionalities compares the two. | 2019-04-19T22:35:02Z | http://diplomaterv.vik.bme.hu/en/Theses/Szoftverfejlesztes-ADF-alapokon |
