Should an expat get international or national health insurance?
When choosing a policy, if you do not have any major preexisting conditions, the local country has an unfavorable policy towards expats or a poor healthcare system, and you can afford private insurance. We recommend choosing an international provider.
International providers offer coverage and a familiarity that an expat comes to expect from insurance policies.
They offer worldwide coverage backed by some of the largest insurance institutions.
Deciding what type to work with should be your first step.
For most expats we recommend international insurance providers as they provide a much more robust policy that has better coverage, as well as backed-by international insurance trusts that are regulated by agencies which support some of the biggest providers in the world.
If the host country has a great free healthcare system.
Can you understand everything the agent is discussing? Are they answering your questions in a reasonable fashion? Can they answer questions specific to your medicare or home country's laws? Can you read the fine details of the policy? Are materials available in English? Can you call the support line in an emergency or with a claim dispute with a fluent English-speaker there to assist you and translate into the local language? Will your explanation of benefits for a claim be in English? This may not seem as big of a deal to some, but it is a major deciding factor for many of our clients. Being in an emergency is already stressful enough without having to deal with language barriers.
Many national carriers treat deductibles as a per-event deduction, not a cumulative of your medical expenses. This means that if you break your leg and have a heart attack in the same year, they will have separate deductibles for each individual claim. For larger claims, this can really eat into the savings you would have had. International insurance providers offer plans that have a single annual deductible that can be met with all of your eligible medical expenses.
Will the carrier guarantee coverage for life, and not cancel you if you have substantial claims? Or will your carrier single you out for an individual policy increase due to "excessive claims"? Is it in writing in the contract? Will they cancel your policy after a certain age? Last thing you want to find out is that a national plan will drop you just as you need the coverage the most. We only work with international plans that guarantee renewal from the best international insurance providers that will not single you out for a premium increase due to claims.
We have worked with many clients that sign up with national plans, not sure exactly what they purchased and then discover that cancer or heart issues will only be covered after a 12-or-24-month waiting period. Many national plans do not ask loads of health questions in advance, and therefore they will deny claims due to preexisting conditions. International plans will ask the questions, review your medical records, and specifically address any preexisting conditions so that you will know what to expect at the time of signing. Underwriters are very thorough and will be upfront with you so that there are no surprises down the road when a claim is filed.
If you need the top cancer specialist in that country, who charges more than his peers, will you be able to use him? Will he or she be part of your plan? Will the plan only pay pennies on the dollar for what he or she bills? Will you have access to the specialty hospital or the surgeon everyone recommends with your insurance policy? Private insurance companies are used to paying claims worldwide determining liability using UCR a cost basis (Usual, Customary, Reasonable). If you want to go to Singapore for a surgery that cost 5 times more than your home country, they will pay that cost. They know that in certain countries, the UCR cost basis is much higher than other countries. In the 5 years we have been helping Expats worldwide, we have never had a claim get denied for the cost, and only once was it denied for not being a usual procedure—being that the person was trying to get an experimental surgery.
International plans usually allow you to have coverage anywhere in the world and allow you to use any doctor, and any facility on a reimbursement basis. Many plans have arranged for a direct payment with major private hospitals in your country in the event of major hospitalization. This means that typically you have to pay up to your deductible, submit a claim, and then they will reimburse you. In instances when your bill is very large, the insurance company will assure payment to the hospital, often wiring a deposit on your treatment.
Furthermore if a treatment is not available in your country, you may utilize your plan elsewhere. We have found that most doctors and specialists who work with the expat community do not participate in national insurance networks as they find them to be a hassle, limit their reimbursements, and not worth their effort to manage the paperwork process.
Can you imagine trying to work with the foreign country's legal system as an outsider? Most international plans have a process in place to appeal to an outside party in the event of a denied claim. In the unlikely event legal action is required, then a suit is handled in American legal system by a third-party arbitration to assure a neutral decision.
Is there a reinsurer such as Lloyd's of London behind them in the event of catastrophic, unplanned claims that would financially cripple smaller carriers? Several unexpected organ transplants, or complicated cancer situations can cause financial ruin for even the most stable insurance company. All our international carriers are reinsured with large international trusts for such events. By being backed by such large institutions also means that they are required to adhere to stringent regulations that assures longevity and client protection.
Lots of questions to ask, and lots of decisions to make. Our firm has worked exclusively with expats and understand their unique needs. Let us review what your options are, and work with a plan that suits your unique needs and budget.

Getting ready for Customs Declaration Service
The Customs Declaration Service (CDS) has been designed to modernise the process for completing customs declarations for businesses that import or export goods from the UK. A phased launch of the service started in August 2018 and more than one million declarations have been made since then. The CDS system is currently used for Northern Ireland and Rest of World declarations.
HMRC has now confirmed that all businesses will need to declare goods through the CDS from 31 March 2023. This will result in the closure of the Customs Handling of Import and Export Freight (CHIEF) service. The CHIEF system is over 25 years old and has struggled to cope with complex reporting requirements that could not easily or cost-effectively be accommodated within the existing service.
HMRC has confirmed that ahead of the 31 March 2023 complete closure, services on CHIEF will be withdrawn in two stages:
30 September 2022: import declarations close on CHIEF
31 March 2023: export declarations close on CHIEF / National Exports System (NES)
The decision to introduce the CDS was system driven to provide a more secure and stable platform and predated Britain's vote to leave the EU. Importers and exporters should by now be well aware of the CDS system, and they or their agent should be starting to prepare for the further rollout and eventual replacement of the CHIEF system.
The joint Directors General for Borders and Trade at HMRC, said:
'CDS is a key part of the government's plans for a world-leading fully digitised border that will help UK businesses to trade and to prosper. This announcement will provide clarity for traders and the border industry. We are committed to making the switch-over as smooth as possible and are working to ensure traders are fully supported with the new processes.'

CMP Has Restored Service to More Than 120,000 Homes and Businesses Following Thursday's Winter Storm
AUGUSTA, Maine Dec. 31, 2016 Central Maine Power Company (CMP), a subsidiary of AVANGRID, Inc. (NYSE: AGR), reports approximately 18,000 customers are without service as of 8 a.m. Saturday. The winter storm that moved through the region Thursday night disrupted service to 138,000 homes and businesses. Outages from heavy snow and high winds peaked at more than 100,000 shortly before 8 a.m. Friday.
Our employees and contractors have put in a tremendous effort since this storm began on Thursday, restoring service to more than 120,000 homes and businesses safely despite some difficult working conditions, said Doug Herling, vice president for Electric Operation. We appreciate our customers patience, especially with the New Year's holiday this evening. We expect to restore service to the majority of the remaining outages by late tonight.
The storm damage was distributed widely across the company's service area with the heaviest damage in a broad band parallel to the coast, including large portions of Androscoggin, Cumberland, Kennebec, Sagadahoc, and Waldo counties. Difficult travel on secondary roads and deep snow banks made the task of restoring service more difficult.
CMP has a team of more than 1,200 field and support personnel engaged in the restoration, including crews from AVANGRID's United Illuminating in Connecticut, as well as crews from, Maine, Connecticut, New York, and the Canadian provinces of Quebec and New Brunswick.
A list of outages by county is on CMP's web site: m.cmpco.com. The company will update the web site with estimated restoration times as soon as more information is available.
CMP urges customers to report outages on its mobile-friendly web site at m.cmpco.com or by calling 1.800.696.1000. Customers can also sign up for CMP's free Outage Alerts service, which provides the latest information about power outages by text message, email, or voice message.
CMP offers customers the following tips to prepare for the storm and stay safe and comfortable during power outages:
During a power interruption:
Power outages can be reported on line at CMP's mobile-friendly website ( https://m.cmpco.com/mt/ecmp.cmpco.com/WebOutage) or by calling 1.800.696.1000. Our systems automatically create a work order and set the stage for dispatch of crews to the outage location.
Bookmark the Outage Central page at http://www.cmpco.com/Outages/default.html (mobile friendly at https://m.cmpco.com/mt/www.cmpco.com) and follow us on Facebook and Twitter for current outage and safety information.
When using an emergency heating source, like a wood stove, fireplace, or kerosene heater, keep fuels away from the flames and be sure to ventilate properly.
Never use grills or camp stoves indoors they can give off dangerous gases.
Keep refrigerators and freezers closed as much as possible. Most food will last 24 hours or longer if you minimize the opening of refrigerator and freezer doors.
Turn off or unplug major appliances to avoid overloading circuits when power is restored.
For customers with generators:
Hire a licensed electrician to install permanent generators and transfer switches.
Properly ground all portable generators.
Carefully read and observe all instructions in your generator's operating manual.
Never run a generator indoors, or even in an open garage.
If your carbon monoxide detector goes off get out of the building immediately and call 911.
Do not store fuel indoors or try to refuel a generator while it's running.
Refer to CMP's web page on generator safety: http://www.cmpco.com/UsageAndSafety/electricalsafety/GeneratorSafety/default.html
Visit http://www.cmpco.com/Outages/storm_safety.html for additional storm safety information.
After Power Is Restored
Turn on appliances and sensitive electronic equipment one at a time to avoid overloading circuits.
If a basement or home was flooded, have an electrician check the home before contacting CMP to have services turned on.
Replenish any emergency supplies used during the storm.
The company urges customers to use caution if they see downed lines.
Everyone should stay clear of any downed power lines or fallen trees that may be tangled in the lines, said CMP Spokesperson Gail Rice.All downed lines should be considered live and dangerous. Customers should leave the clean-up to our crews, who are trained and equipped to handle these situations safely.
CMP also reminds drivers to use caution when approaching utility crews. The working conditions are difficult, and the workers appreciate everyone's consideration for their safety.
Additional information on storm safety and restoration, including a town-by-town listing of outages in the CMP service area with an area map, can be found on CMP's web site at www.cmpco.com.

At the suggestion of my new friend and Marketing Guru Dave Dee, I have decided to begin a proper blog bravely revealing my Tantric adventures and opening my heart to the whole cyber-world. I am a little freaked out about the whole thing, but ever since I decided to do it I have felt so many inspirations that I can't even fit them all in one entry….go figure.
I hope you enjoy and I can't wait to read your comments as you participate in the discussion.

The UMI Super is a decent smartphone with premium looks which offers a good performance that most users will appreciate. The combination of the latest Mediatek Octa Core processor, a Full HD screen protected by the Corning Gorilla Glass 3, 4GB of RAM memory, 32 GB of storage with the freedom of expanding it to 256GB makes the UMI Super the king for midrange smartphones.
The UMI Super is a smartphone that enters into the market to correct the flaws seen in the UMI Touch with a great hardware, a premium design and a decent camera performance. The 4G smartphone houses a MediaTek Octa-Core Mobile Processor, 4GB of RAM, 32GB of Samsung eMMC storage, an ARM Mali-860 Dual-Core GPU, 5.5 inch Full HD Screen and a fingerprint sensor.
There is an ARM Mali T860 MP2 GPU that takes care of graphic performance for excellent image qualities and videos. It also comes pre-installed with Android 6 Marshmallow, which is Android's latest operating system bundled with the essential apps only. The smartphone combines high specification features to offer a decent performance in browsing the internet, making dial connections, playing android games and watching videos and movies in Full HD.
The UMI Super is built with aerospace class aluminum body that gives the device a premium design. The smartphone is super compact with a tiny bezel and a high screen to body ratio making it to fit well In the hands with a 5.5 inch Full HD screen mounted on an outstanding metal body. It measures 5.94 x 2.95 x 0.33 inches and weighs 200 grams making it a portable device that can easily slide into your pocket jeans and walk around with it all day.
The UMI Super is powered by the brand new Helio P10 CPU, which is a Mediatek Cortex-A53 Octa Core 2.0GHz processor that is far much better than the snapdragon 615 and 801 chipsets we are used to seeing on smartphones. The ARM Mali T860 MP2 GPU, which runs at 700 MHZ with 2 cores offers fast graphic performance.
Combine this with a 4GB RAM and 32 GB of ROM, you get a smartphone capable of multitasking and providing a reliable performance. The RAM is enough such that you cannot experience any stuttering when you open multiple tabs. The storage space is also enough but if you have huge files, then you can expand the storage space with a Micro SD Card to a maximum of 256 GB to store all your apps, photos, music, videos, games and movies.
In terms of connectivity, the smartphone features a Type-C USB interface which allows you to insert the USB cable without having to look for the right face, a Micro SD Card slot and a 3.5mm Audio port. This is a dual sim card phone, or a single sim card in case you would like to expand your memory with a TF card.
Internet connectivity is available by way of Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n wireless internet. The phone supports 2G, 3G and 4G networks, so it is upon you to choose the one you prefer the most, but most folks go with the latest 4G network since its fast. The phone also features Bluetooth 4.1 for pairing with compatible devices for faster transfer and sharing of documents, files, photos and videos.
The smartphone features a sharp 5.5 inch Full HD screen with a resolution of 1920×1080 pixels. The screen offers wide viewing angles thanks to the 2.5D Arc screen and it is protected by a Corning Gorilla Glass 3 that is tough enough to enable the screen survive scratches and hits.
The screen has a higher color saturation that makes it easy for you to read your texts even in the sunlight. The screen has vivid and clear images for perfect watching of videos and photos as well as using different applications.
The highlight point for these UMI Super is on its camera. The smartphone comes with a 13MP Panasonic rear Camera that embraces the latest camera technology to offer a memorable experience in the field of photography. This is the kind of camera that a photo enthusiast would love to own, it activates, focuses and takes a shot quickly making it a perfect companion for tours and travels in documenting all the memories with a snapshot.
There is a rear flash light for taking photos in dimly lit environments or for indoor purposes so that the picture quality is not compromised. The Front camera is 5 Megapixels which is adequate for taking of selfies and receiving of video calls through Skype.
The battery capacity is another big win for the UMI Super as it promises to take you all day without draining. The 4000mAh Sony battery lasts up to 12 hours of internet use, a massive 15 hours of video play and 120 hours of music play. On our battery tests, the UMI Super is slightly above the iPhone 6S plus in as much they are in different leagues, the UMI Super recorded videos for 4 hours and 55 minutes whereas the iPhone 6 plus drained after a mere 3.5 hours.
It also lasts longer than the UMI TOUCH (which we reviewed earlier) by 20 minutes. To add the icing to the cake, the phone can charge up to 75% in 30 minutes with the use of USB Type-C thanks to the Super Quick Charging PE+ technology. On our tests, we achieved 50% in 1 hour hence putting to doubt UMI's claim, but then still this is not bad for such a midrange phone. It took 2 hours and 10 minutes to achieve a full charge.
The finger print scanner that is slightly below the flash light is an impressive feature that the UMI super boasts of in heightening the security of your information. The Microarray 3D Fingerprint sensor lets you press your finger gently on the sensor and it unlocks in 0.1 seconds, fast enough and more convenient when compared to the traditional use of passcodes and patterns.
TECLAST M40 Gaming Tablets 6GB RAM 128GB ROM, 2.0Ghz Octa-Core CPU, Android Tablet 10.1 inch, 5MP+8MP Camera, 1920x1200 FHD IPS, Bluetooth 5.0 Type-C 5G WiFi GPS
Among the selling points of this smartphone fingerprint sensor and its metallic body that is very strong and capable of withstanding a blow or shock without getting damaged. As such, if it slips through your fingers on the pavement you don't have to get worried that it will end up in the junk, you can just pick it up, wipe it and make a call as if nothing happened. The 13 megapixel camera is also a site to behold and a big plus for photo enthusiasts.
All said, if you are in the market after a midrange smartphone that will serve you well be it browsing the internet, gaming, watching movies in Full HD or listening to music, then the UMI Super should top your shopping list.

Date posted: 15 Jul 2016Author: STC Production: The Hanging
After appearing in Battle of Waterloo in 2015, Luke Carroll returns to the Wharf to play Detective Flint in The Hanging.
Aside from his work on stage, Luke is best known as one of the presenters on ABC's Play School. And, ahead of rehearsals for The Hanging, Luke visited his former primary school in Woolloomooloo to teach drama and literacy strategies as part of STC's School Drama program. The students at Plunkett Street, who knew Luke from Play School, were understandably very excited to meet him.
How did you get started in acting?
It was at school at Plunkett Street in Woolloomooloo and there was a relief teacher in Grade 3 who saw my potential. I was a bit of a class clown, I had a lot of energy, and she saw how that energy could be channelled outside the classroom in a really positive way… and that was acting. So, I remember she asked me to stay back after class finished one day and asked my mum to join. I thought I was in trouble, my mum thought I was in trouble, but that wasn't it at all. This teacher had a friend who was an acting agent and she set up a meeting for us. I went in there with no expectations and no real ambition to be an actor but I liked the idea of earning some extra pocket money and helping my mum out. She was a single mum with me and my older brother, so just being able to buy my own footy boots and tennis racquet was a great thing because I loved playing sports.
So, I signed up with the agent and started out getting a bit of work as an extra on TV shows and learnt how it all worked technically. I got my first main role in a short film with directed by a student at AFTRS and then a guest role on Flying Doctors, which snowballed into a lot more work in TV.
Soon after, I had to move to Melbourne for six months to shoot the show Lift Off, which was a great show and fun to do but it meant I was away from family and friends, working five-day weeks pretty much like an adult. We had a tutor on set, but there wasn't really much time for schooling. My mum has worked in education for decades, so she was worried about me missing out and, once I got to high school age, she pulled me out of what I thought was a blossoming acting career to focus on my studies. I still did a few acting gigs here and there, but nothing major. At the time, I thought it was the worst decision in the world. I mean, I was on TV sets having fun, earning money. But, in hindsight, I think it was the best decision she ever made for me. I'm very grateful for her foresight.
After I finished my HSC, I didn't really know what I wanted to do (some work experience at a dentist's surgery had killed that idea). I went back into acting and I've been lucky to be consistently working ever since.
What's it like to have been on Play School now for six years?
It feels like something came full circle with that gig – I started as a child actor, education has been a key part of my life, now I'm helping to educate kids through my work as an actor, as a presenter. To work on such an iconic TV show is a thrill. It's great fun, but it's hard work too. The script often requires you to dance, sing and make something at the same time, all while presenting to an audience that isn't there.
It was great to visit Plunkett Street primary school recently and interact with kids who have seen me on Play School. As for any teacher or parent, it's still a challenge to keep their attention, but it was great to have that connection with the audience behind the camera.
Are you still connected to the school in any way?
Not to the school specifically, but to the Woolloomooloo community, definitely. We have a reunion there every year in December, which people travel to from all over Australia. I loved growing up there. It's so central to everything and we had the bay right there. I remember the finger wharf, where Russell Crowe and John Laws live now, used to be this derelict thing. We'd jump the fence and run down to the end of the wharf and swim and fish, playing hide and seek in the whole Wharf. I have very fond memories.
The suburb has obviously changed since I was there. When I went to Plunkett Street there were a few hundred students, with a big library that we loved, but now it's down to maybe 50 kids, with a lot of the buildings taken over by distant education offices. I guess a lot of the new, more affluent residents in the area prefer to send their kids to private schools. You lose some of that community feeling in the process.
With The Hanging, how have you been finding your way into your character, Detective Flint?
It's all there in the writing. Angela Betzien has created a really great piece of work – a thriller. Flint is there to solve the mystery.
The scenes are really dynamic and intricate. There's a lot happening in what's being said and what's left unsaid, so it's been great to work with Ashleigh Cummings and Genevieve Lemon on the floor in rehearsal and go through the text with [director] Sarah Goodes in real detail. Sarah directed me in Battle of Waterloo last year, and I love working with her. Breaking the script down beat by beat to uncover everything that's going on – the mind games between the characters. It's exciting stuff.
The Hanging, 28 Jul – 10 Sep 2016, Wharf 1 Theatre

Q: Activity start with 5 seconds delay from service If I launch activity from service have a 5 seconds delay to start. Delay is not black or write screen. Simply not start.
Intent i = new Intent(ServiceClass.getServiceContext(), KioskActivity.class);
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
ServiceClass.getServiceContext().startActivity(i);

If I launch same activity from other activity, delay is 0,5 - 1 seconds. In this case I launch activity wich no Flag, from service I use FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK.
The process in OnCreate (computational cost) of launched activity is the same if is launched from service or from other activity.
Why it takes much longer launch from the service?
Extra info:
If I launch activity from service when any other activity of app is opened activity open above in 0.5 seconds delay, if I launch activity from service when is NOT other activity opened delay is 5 seconds.

Q: Access normal text using jquery I have the following HTML code:

    11 |
    XXXXXX |
     |

How do I get the text XXXXXX using jQuery(what selector to be used)?

A: You can only select element nodes with jQuery. And most jQuery methods only consider element nodes, so using jQuery and plain DOM API together might be a good approach here.
The text node you want to target is the next sibling of the image. So if you can get a reference to the image element, you can access the text node with the .nextSibling [MDN] property:
var txt = image.nextSibling.nodeValue;
// or if image is a jQuery object
var txt = image.get(0).nextSibling.nodeValue;

Given the structure of the HTML, you could do something like this:
var txt = $('.top_l > img').get(0).nextSibling.nodeValue;

DEMO

A: Well, you have to put it inside an html tag and call that tag using jquery, see sample below.
 XXXXXX
etc etc<and some more HTML code>

and in your jquery
$(document).ready(function(){
alert($("span").text());
});

in jquery you can use css selectors to select the tag
 XXXXXX
etc etc<and some more HTML code>

$(document).ready(function(){
alert($("#theText").text());
});

A: you can do like this:
var childNodes = document.querySelector("div").childNodes, pickNext = false;
for(var i in childNodes) {
    var childNode = childNodes[i];
    if(pickNext) {
        alert(childNode.nodeValue);
        break;
    }
    // same as $(childNode).is("img")
    // now you can put the XXXXXX where ever you want.
    // as far as you know which is the next sibling.you can get it
    if(childNode.nodeName === "IMG") {
        pickNext = true;
    }
}

by this way you can find the text anywhere it is as long as you know the sibling's node type.
DISCLAIMER: this may not work in IE.
DEMO

A: You have plenty of solution, I add one more :)
var divVar=$(".top_l").clone();
divVar.children().addClass("remove");
divVar.children().remove(".remove");
var txt=divVar.html();
txt=txt.replace (/\|/g, '');

Mazda CX3 Forum > Mazda CX-3 Forum > General Discussion > Rear brake shoes?
Greetings all. A new member here....owner of 2016 cx3. Front wheel drive. Trying to get all parts for rear brake service. Having difgiculty finding the actual parking brake shoes for this vehicle. Any help would be appreciated.


It's never too early to "play bar," right?
OK, maybe three years old is a little too young.
The image of a Fisher-Price Happy Hour Playset seems to have originated from Adam Padilla on Instagram. Padilla was apparently inspired by the sight of his 2-year-old daughter at his own kitchen counter, looking like she needs another drink.
"It seemed like something someone might do," Padilla told Huffington Post.
Sadly, Fisher-Price isn't actually selling Happy Hour playsets (and has no intention to), but that hasn't stopped people from flooding the company's Facebook page with comments. Some people are clueless and outraged at the idea of a Happy Hour Playset, but others genuinely want to buy their kids a bar.
Courtney, I hope to be as cool as you when I'm a mom. Cheers!


An afternoon at the Lyttleton, National Theatre, where we find Patrick Marber's new version of the lengthy Turgenev play 'A Month in the Country', now around half the length and retitled 'Three Days in the Country'.
This production, with a minimalist set (painted backdrop of trees etc, and red doors leading nowhere), has the accent on comedy with the best performance coming from Mark Gatiss as the doctor who is a 'maestro of misdiagnosis' with a dodgy back. His proposal to a disinterested Lizaveta (Debra Gillett) is most amusing.
At this performance Amanda Drew, who plays Natayla, was indisposed, so her understudy Cassie Raine stepped in and was very good in what is perhaps the key role of the play, the wife who seeks distraction from a stale marriage to the rich Arkady (John Light) who has stopped seeing her rich qualities as his partner in life. On the fringes is their longtime friend Rakitin (john Simm), hopelessly in love with Natayla but finding his attentions unrequited. Simm, to me, was too over the top and lacking a sense of the tragic, which was a shame.
Natayla is in love, though, with the young tutor Belyaev (Royce Pierreson), a man who seems rather fickle as we see him flirting with the maid Katya (Cherrelle Skeete) while leading on the young Vera (Lily Sacofsky), ward to Arkady and Natayla. Sensing a rival for the youth she craves, Natayla plots Vera's marriage to an old neighbour, Bolshintsov (Nigel Betts) to remove the girl from her house.
Rounding out this rich cast are Lynn Farleigh and Gawn Grainger, and the whole ensemble works well together, presenting an entertaining two hours which punctuates laughs with moments of emotional pathos and Russian songs. Marber directs as well as writes with a sure hand, and the design work of Mark Thompson and Neil Austin is well worth a mention.

Courtney travels to Washington DC, gets busted for touching the art, gets lost on the Metro and meets his podcasting idols, Mike O'Meara, Robb Spewak, Oscar Santana, Chad Dukes and Drab T-Shirt. His appearance went very well but his follow-up was a trainwreck.

Oh did I forget to mention Mark Swanson, Swanny Swanny Swanny!!!!
So many things to discuss with Ben from @PureBSpodcast – He hates the movie the Shining and we argue about that. He says I'm too old to understand how girls "are" these days. And we solve the rest of the world's problems.
We discuss memory and how reliable is it or isn't. Why do we think our own memories are so important? Are we the amalgamation of our memories, and if they are not who are we?

Swanny returns from New Orleans where hung out with brain surgeons and bid of some awesome NFL football memorabilia. Another boat disappointment by Courtney.
Swanny is back from Napa and he brought something back with him. Bathroom narration is the trouble of the trip. Why is someone on thier phone in the public restroom and talking about their BM?
Marcus Certa, host of the O'MearaCast @OMearaCast fills in for Swanny and we discuss 10 unique phobias, why do "sports parents" make it all about them, on-line gambling being done by kids via video game competitions, swatting is not a prank and it has real consequences as well as the current state of radio.
On this episode we review our appearance on O'MearaCast and the fun we've been having with all of the podcasts from the MORE Broadcast network.
We discuss video game convention with my sons, spending time as a family in Seattle and having adventures is fun.
We talk all about the Cos-Play and the games and people at the Seattle convention center.


I came upon Horstman's Laws. Certainly worth a read.
I was feeling artsy. This is what came out of it.
I think the Laws apply to more than just management though. I believe they apply to all aspects of business success or even, perhaps, all of life. I've added a few things not in Horstman's Laws but I feel they also apply.
So, what do you think? I hope you enjoyed.

Acadia Pharmaceuticals Submits New FDA For Parkinson's Psychosis Drug
By Ciara Linnane MarketWatch Pulse
Acadia Pharmaceuticals said Thursday it has submitted a New Drug Application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for its Nuplazid treatment for psychosis associated with Parkinson's Disease. "NUPLAZID holds promise for patients with Parkinson's disease psychosis who currently have no FDA-approved treatment options," said Steve Davis, who was named Chief Executive of Acadia in a separate statement early Thursday. Davis joined the company in July 2014 as chief financial officer, and became interim CEO in March. He has previously worked at Heron Therapeutics, Ardea Biosciences Inc. and at Neurogen, said the statement. About one million people in the U.S. suffer from Parkinson's, according to the National Parkinson Foundation. Acadia shares were indicating higher in light, premarket trade, but are up 20% in the year so far, while the S&P 500 has lost 5.3%.


Weird Wonderful Web: Man replaces lost arm with dolphin tattoo!
Norwegian Heine Braeck shows the dolphin tattoo on his stump where he lost an arm.
Norwegian man Heine Braeck has had an amazing tattoo of a dolphin etched onto the remaining stump left after he lost his arm.
"When I was 13 I tried to take a shortcut across the top of a stationary train which started moving, I lost my balance and grabbed hold of the wire that powers the train and got fried."
"The first thing I saw after surgery was how much my arm was shaped like a dolphin's head, I finally decided to do something about it".
And do something about it he did; he arranged to have the tattoo done by Bulgarian tattoo artist Valio Ska.

Rare Birds: Vincents Through Time and Texas
Peter Egan rides the first Series B Vincent Rapide and an exquisite HRD Rudge Python Sport.
By Peter Egan
Dangerous business, flying down to Austin to ride a Vincent. Last time I made this trip was 14 years ago, and I ended up buying the 1952 Vincent Black Shadow featured in a story I cleverly entitled "To Ride a Vincent." Came home, sold everything I owned that anyone would want to buy and purchased the bike from collector/restorer Herb Harris. The Shadow is gone now—I parted with it about 10 years ago when I realized I could sell it and pay off our house—but I'm still friends with Herb.
And when he invited us back to Austin this time, I figured I'd be in a little less peril, as the two rare Vincents featured here are way out of my price range. Actually, all Vincents are way out of my price range now, unless we sell our house and move into an abandoned cardboard box. Next to the railroad tracks. Time, collectability and inflation have marched on. While I, apparently, have not.
Herb Harris is an Austin lawyer who retired a couple of years ago to open a new business (Harris Vincent Gallery, Inc.), one that would allow him to concentrate on his favorite things in life, which are tracking down Vincents and/or restoring them.
He and his wife Karen have a nice home in the Texas Hill Country on the west side of Austin, with a guest house attached. Upstairs is a comfortable apartment, with a refrigerator full of Guinness, and the downstairs looks exactly like a traditional English pub, with a dark wood bar and a shining row of great British bikes lined up on the varnished (and surprisingly oil-free) floor. Vincents, vintage Triumphs, BSA Gold Star, AJS 7R, etc.
When you pour a cup of coffee and walk downstairs into the pub in the morning, you automatically find yourself repeating that famous line from "Field of Dreams:" "Is this Heaven?"
"No," you tell yourself, "this is Texas. And what we have here is a very fine collection of motorcycles."
Though many of the world's great Vincents—including the Rollie Free "bathing suit bike" of Bonneville record fame—have passed through his hands, Herb says he's not really a collector. He enjoys having the bikes for a few years and working on them, but feels no need to hang on to them in the long run. As is the case with so many of us, it's the hunt that matters. He's really more history detective than collector.
And, without Herb, it might have taken Sherlock Holmes himself to track down the big Series B Vincent engine that's nestled in the heart of the first bike we're looking at today. It's the very first Series B engine, introduced just after WWII. Long since separated from its original chassis and passed around for various factory experimental projects, it was discovered by Herb in an English eBay ad, and he's now returned it to a proper chassis—one it might have had when it was introduced to the English press in 1946—with an overlay of appropriate patina.
To explain where this all fits in the Big Scheme, perhaps we should do a quick little review of Vincent History.
Philip Vincent came from a wealthy English family and went to good schools. While at Harrow and Cambridge, he was an avid motorcyclist with a trouble-prone BSA, so he did what serious scholars (such as you and I) have always done with their study hall time, which is sketch motorcycle frames. He wanted to start his own motorcycle company, but his wise old father convinced him to buy a defunct but prestigious brand—H.R.D. This company was named for Howard R. Davies, a famous motorcycle racer who'd started building his own high-quality bikes (out of frustration with other brands), but had gone broke by 1927.
Yes, here we have a prime example of the "Frustration with Other Brands" school of motorcycle design, which appears to have propelled British ingenuity through much of the 20th century.
Anyway, Phil Vincent started building his own Vincent-HRD Singles with purchased engines (J.A.P., Villiers, Rudge, etc.) and his own stoutly triangulated frame designs. Frustration with some of these engines (J.A.P., mostly) drove him and his famous partner in crime, Australian engineer Phil Irving, to design their own big Singles, the Meteor and the hotter Comet.
These engines had a number of clever features, including high cams and rocker-arm fingers operating on collars at the center of the valve stems, which shortened the pushrods to lighten the valvetrain and reduce overall engine height. Valves were carried in two guides, with a gap between them for the rocker arm. In 1936, the Two Phils quite logically joined a pair of these cylinders at the hip and introduced the Series A Rapide, a fire-breathing 1000cc V-Twin, to an astonished motorcycle world.
This fearsome object would easily top 100 mph, and it was soon dubbed "The Snarling Beast" by one of its test riders. Unfortunately, the press also dubbed it "The Plumber's Nightmare" because of all the arachnid-like external oil lines; critics further noted the clutch slipped because it was overwhelmed with all that torque and power.
At this point, after 78 were sold, WWII drew a merciful curtain upon the Rapide's shortcomings and Vincent went into war production, building things that exploded on purpose: artillery shells and land mines. During those dark years, Vincent and Irving plotted an improved post-war Rapide.
And here's where Herb's engine comes in. It's the very first works prototype engine, 1X, long believed to have been scrapped. And it almost was.
That first B-Series Rapide was much ridden and photographed by the press, who approved of its cleaned-up engine, whose external oil lines had been replaced by raised "veins" cast into the case covers. In place of the weak old proprietary clutch was a clever two-stage unit with lightly sprung discs operating a set of brake-shoe-like grabbers in a drum. The traditional diamond frame had also been eliminated by using … no frame. The Brampton fork was simply attached to a sturdy oil tank bolted to the top of the cylinder heads, and the unique A-frame swingarm pivoted off the engine cases, with spring boxes almost hidden beneath the seat. What you had, essentially, was that schoolboy's dream: a big hairy engine with two wheels attached.
But once the adoring press finished with it, that prototype bike didn't get much in-house respect. The lads at the factory used it for bashing about town, and then the British military decided they needed a fast assault boat to attack enemy coastlines and had Vincent build 1X into a hot Lightning race-spec engine for testing. Nothing came of this, but the poor engine got its transmission band-sawed off and a new set of contemporary case numbers (468) tacked on to the existing number 1 (which led to some confusion later). Then, the beast was left to languish under a workbench.
After that, the engine was sold off, installed in a later frame and used in various hillclimbers and racebikes—with a Norton gearbox bolted on. And this is how Herb found it in England, a bitsa Lightning-spec racebike with straight pipes and later Girdraulic fork. He thought it deserved to go back into an early Series B chassis, replicating as closely as possible the bike shown in those 1946 magazine photos. And that's what we have here. Not the first complete Series B Vincent, which has long since been parted out into the cosmos, but a proper setting for its original engine, now fully rebuilt, of course.
So, on a warm Texas summer morning, we trailered the Rapide farther out into the Hill Country and I took a ride on it, all duded up in 1946 riding gear (although this is two years before I was born, so I have only the photos). Herb, his son, Brian, and mechanic Mike Beck bump-started the bike, as I was suffering from a case of purple BSA Single kickstart knee at the moment, and I headed off down the road.
One ride on a Vincent reminds you why people put up with the expense and vintage eccentricities of these bikes—and why I sold everything to buy one of my own. They feel compact and light, with a low center of gravity, and the engine has a relaxed, almost liquid-smooth V-Twin gait and shuffle that make you want to motor down the road and off into infinity. It has great, easy torque, plenty of power and light, agile steering from the Brampton fork, while the rear suspension really works, soaking up bumps in a way that must have seemed unbelievably civilized in this hardtail era.
And the view over that black tank with gold leaf lettering, while watching the fork work, is one of motorcycling's great pleasures. It feels and looks as if there's remarkably little bike beneath you, considering how much visual mass and heart-stopping charm that engine exudes from a side view—and how willingly it accelerates. It's exactly the right size for a motorcycle, with an ideal (and adjustable) riding position.
Out of respect for the value of this bike—and my own cowardice and recently healed ribs—I didn't push it too hard in corners, but the general characteristics are intuitively natural turn-in and good stability in fast turns. Brakes? Better than almost anything from the era—and for about 20 years thereafter—but if you're headed into a blind downhill sweeper at 65 mph, you should probably know where the road goes in advance. Surprises are not entirely welcome.
When we finally put the Rapide away toward evening and were about to head out for some great Texas barbeque (not that I don't like motorcycles), Herb offered us a bonus ride on another of his finished project bikes, a 1932 HRD Python Sport, a 500cc Single with a four-valve Rudge engine—in hot "Ulster Tune" competition spec. If the Rapide was intended to have historic patina, this one was restored so perfectly you almost hate to stand too close. Like the Les Paul Custom in "Spinal Tap," perhaps you shouldn't even look at it.
ROLLING HISTORY: The 1932 HRD Python Sport features a four-valve 500cc Rudge Single, swept-back pipes and an Amal carb on its side. Egan likens the brakes to a butter-injection system.
This bike came at a pivotal point in Vincent history, as Phil Vincent had finally been convinced to abandon his unconventional early frame design, which was heavily triangulated and had an awkward frame tube slashing across the side of the engine. In its place came a more "normal" diamond frame, but still with his excellent rear suspension. At this time, he was also having trouble with J.A.P. (John A. Prestwich) engines and was trying out the more sophisticated Rudge Python unit. This period lasted only briefly, until Rudge quit supplying engines, and Vincent and Irving designed their own.
And the Python is a pretty exquisite engine. It has four valves located radially in a bronze (sometimes iron) head, dual exhaust ports that empty into a pair of gracefully swept-back Highgate "silencers" and an Amal carb with the slide body turned sideways for more tank clearance. (Well, why not? Should work.)
Herb's started first kick, idled smoothly and had plenty of midrange grunt. Compared with the Rapide, however, the old Single is a little more of a vintage contraption to ride. But only in that the Burman gearbox is a slower-shifting unit and the Blumfield brakes are less effective. Did I call them brakes? More like a butter-injection system. The harder you squeeze, the faster the bike goes, just like my old Triumph 500. Luckily, it handles quite nicely, which helps when you're sailing through corners a little faster than intended. Overall, a charming, perfectly serviceable bike with great visual balance and mechanical presence.
I didn't ride this one hard at all, as it's already sold to a wealthy collector (redundant, perhaps) and on its way out the door. But bikes like this aren't lovingly restored so we poor deprived moderns have something to ride hard. We have new bikes for that.
We like the old ones not because we need transportation, but because we love history—and the beauty that comes from imagination and fine craftsmanship. Which, luckily for us, were sometimes borne of past frustration with other brands.

Final Fantasy X (ファイナルファンタジーX, Fainaru Fantajī Ten) is a role-playing video game developed and published by Square Soft (now Square Enix) as the tenth entry in the Final Fantasy series. Originally released in 2001 for Sony's PlayStation 2, the game was re-released as a high-definition port for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita on March 18, 2014, under the name Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster. It was also re-released for the PlayStation 4 in May 2015. The game marks the Final Fantasy series transition from entirely pre-rendered backdrops to fully three-dimensional areas, and is also the first in the series to feature voice acting. Final Fantasy X replaces the Active Time Battle (ATB) system with the "Conditional Turn-Based Battle" (CTB) system, and uses a new leveling system called the "Sphere Grid".
Set in the fantasy world of Spira, the game's story revolves around a group of adventurers and their quest to defeat a rampaging monster known as Sin. The player character is Tidus, a blitzball star who finds himself in Spira after his home city of Zanarkand is destroyed by Sin. Shortly after arriving to Spira, Tidus joins the summoner Yuna on her pilgrimage to destroy Sin.

Final Fantasy VII (Japanese: ファイナルファンタジーVII, Hepburn: Fainaru Fantajī Sebun) is a role-playing video game developed and published by Square (now Square Enix) for the PlayStation platform. Released in 1997, it is the seventh installment in the Final Fantasy series and the first in the series to use 3D computer graphics, featuring fully rendered characters on pre-rendered backgrounds. It was also the first game in the main series to be released in Europe. The story follows Cloud Strife, a mercenary who joins the eco-terrorist rebel organization AVALANCHE to stop the world-controlling megacorporation Shinra from draining the life of the planet to use as an energy source. Cloud and his allies become involved in a larger world-threatening conflict and face off against Sephiroth, the main antagonist.
Development of Final Fantasy VII began in 1994. It was originally developed for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System, but was moved to the Nintendo 64; since the Nintendo 64's cartridges lacked the required storage capacity for substantial prerendered movie footage, Square moved the game to the CD-ROM based PlayStation. It was directed by Yoshinori Kitase, written by Kazushige Nojima and Kitase, and produced by Hironobu Sakaguchi. The music was composed by Final Fantasy veteran Nobuo Uematsu, while the series' long-time character designer, Yoshitaka Amano, was replaced by Tetsuya Nomura.

Environment variables are a set of dynamic named values that can affect the way running processes will behave on a computer.
They are part of the environment in which a process runs. For example, a running process can query the value of the TEMP environment variable to discover a suitable location to store temporary files, or the HOME or USERPROFILE variable to find the directory structure owned by the user running the process.
They were introduced in their modern form in 1979 with Version 7 Unix, so are included in all Unix operating system flavors and variants from that point onward including Linux and OS X. From PC DOS 2.0 in 1982, all succeeding Microsoft operating systems including Microsoft Windows, and OS/2 also have included them as a feature, although with somewhat different syntax, usage and standard variable names.
In all Unix and Unix-like systems, each process has its own separate set of environment variables. By default, when a process is created, it inherits a duplicate environment of its parent process, except for explicit changes made by the parent when it creates the child. At the API level, these changes must be done between running fork and exec. Alternatively, from command shells such as bash, a user can change environment variables for a particular command invocation by indirectly invoking it via env or using the ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE=VALUE <command> notation. All Unix operating system flavors, DOS, and Windows have environment variables; however, they do not all use the same variable names. A running program can access the values of environment variables for configuration purposes.

While you were out sexing
I was a chef soaking
One hundred tissues with sweat and moisturizer
In my head burned a picture
Of your face with my privates
I read your diary it said: I've been a good son
All it takes is a good job
To take you out to dinner, but


"She helps me, she calms me down, she lets me know she's there when I'm about to have a meltdown," Parker says.
Wendy and Mark got the dog about a year ago, and Parker hasn't had an outburst since.
But that's just half the story. Kids with autism have a lot of other issues, too — and for those, there's this: dog agility. Parker says it was "really, extremely tough" to learn at first.
Although it's generally the domain of middle-aged women, Parker's mom says the sport is also "great" autism therapy.
"You're doing speech therapy, you've got to get commands out … while you're running … and you've got to keep your body in control when you don't have good motor movement," says Wendy.
Part of dog agility is learning how to handle disappointment — especially with this dog. She had yet to actually finish a course. But Parker didn't seem to mind.
Healing for Parker. The idea is still new and unproven, but for one boy, on one day, there was never any doubt his dog had some kind of magic.
During her last race, something got into Candy. The dog that had never finished the course before did every "through" and made every "over." It was an absolutely flawless performance.
Candy not only finished for the first time — she actually finished first, earning a kiss from Parker. That's the kind of autistic outburst he and his family can live with.
Usually through a nonprofit organization that trains and places service dogs with people with disabilities. You have to be careful with autism service dog organizations as there are unfortunately many in the U.S. that place dogs that are undertrained and/or do not legally qualify as service dogs under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Many organizations unfortunately will only train autism service dogs for children. I've only heard of a couple organizations in the U.S. that place autism service dogs with adults.
A really good website to checkout is servicedogcentral.org They have a lot of great info on types of service dogs and how to find an organization and other service dog topics.
The service dogs are wonderful…..
I have one of these. But mine is a little thing weights like what 5 pounds?
My dog isn't a service dog. I would love to get her registered but not sure how to go about it. Aside from being good for anti anxiety, she has gone to get help several times when I've had seizures. I live in Texas. If anyone has any information about how to register a service dog for such things, please let me know. She is super well behaved, trained to walk without a leash, learns quickly. She is 6 years old. I know that is old for a lot of training programs. But she IS really smart.
I don't know where I'd be without my big girl :). I trained her myself to fit my specific needs. You don't NEED to send a dog to organizations to be trained and registered. All I got was a letter from my psychiatrist for a service dog and cat. Although I don't think she really knew the ada laws, but only dogs and miniature ponies can be service animals.
StaySpun, I had looked into training for our Standard Poodle to become a service dog for our Aspie daughter's therapeutic benefit. Our dog was around 2 years old at the time and everyone I contacted gave me a definitive NO because of his age (too old). So, I'm afraid you likely won't have much luck with official service dog training, but that doesn't mean you don't have a great dog who will be a wonderful companion for you! If you find anyone who is willing to work with older dogs, please let me know!
I have two service dogs, depending on the situation I am going into I either take the Chihuahua, BabyGirl or the American Staffishire Terrier Miss Piggitty with me. BabyGirl comes to the movies or to places where space is an issue. If I am going to be in an area or doing an activity where an outburst is likely I take Miss Piggitty, she is able to overpower me, get me to a sitting or laying possition and if necessarry in her doggie mind get me the heck out of dodge. She goes so far as to push the exit button on the trolley if I have momentarally forgotten how to for the moment.
I am actually training my dog to be a service dog right now. It is a stressful process and at times it can seem to be too much of a hassle…but then it just takes one freak out in a crowded area and I'm motivated to keep going on.
You can train your own dog to be a service dog. There is no certification necessary. If you are physically or sensory disabled and your dog is trained to help you it is a service dog. My border collie is trained to interrupt me when I am being repetitive or collapsing inward with thought so I can remember to do all the things I need to do, exercise, do laundry, not browse the web all day.
Since we have a sensory disability service dog status is granted to us by the ADA. This is not a psychological service dog or a emotional support dog, those are separate classes. For us they are service dogs.
I play agility and it's helped me tremendously – at first I couldn't even remember a sequence of three obstacles but using a guidebookI learned to memorize courses and now I compete at the highest levels.
I'm a middle aged aspie who absolutely loves training for and competing g in dog agility with my Two dogs. I think it's an amazing form of therapy for spatial awareness among other things. This article warms my heart.

Home Sports Floral Park's Roller Derby 'Dolly'
Floral Park's Roller Derby 'Dolly'
Dressed in protective gear and armed with a set of wheels, 26 year-old Floral Park resident, Caity Tweedy, also known as "Dropkick Dolly" played on Team Black of the all-female Long Island Roller Rebels at Old Bethpage Skate Safe America on Saturday, March 8.
Versing Team Pink, the Roller Rebels split their team for the game. Pink racked up 225 points and Black gathered 187. At the end, both teams shook hands and joined as one to celebrate yet another game together.
"I'd compare this sport to football and NASCAR on skates," explained Tweedy who has participated for three seasons with the Roller Rebels.
Participating in such a sport takes stamina and strength, both mental and physical.
"It takes guts being in a roller derby. You have to be able to conquer your fears and step outside your comfort zone," Tweedy said," It is definitely a risky sport. We've had broken ankles, collar bones, jammed fingers, but everyone absolutely loves it."
Derby members have specific and organized responsibilities. Each team has a jammer, the one with the star on her helmet, and a pivot, the one with the stripe on her helmet. The pack consists of four blockers and two jammers from each team.
In the beginning of the game, the pack moves out away from the starting line and begins their way around the track blocking the opposing jammer while making a path for the other jammer to get through the pack. They must skate one full time around the track before they can start scoring points.
Learning the rules and becoming derby ready is not an easy task, but Tweedy trained to become a professional player.
"It took me about nine months to
pass my skills test; it's pretty rigorous to ensure your safety as well as everyone else's." She explained, "You need be able to skate on one foot, squat and hop over objects. You also have to skate 27 laps in five minutes and take a written test. It's all very necessary."
Tweedy became a Roller Rebel because she was attracted to the uniqueness of the sport.
"Unlike most sports, it's an advantage to be different. Being short, very tall, small, or large, is a great advantage. Everyone can do it," she laughed.
Playing in an all-women's team is also a thrill for Tweedy.
"As a women, I've never played a contact sport before. The boys have hockey and football. It's nice to put on my padding, hit people and be a tough woman," she smiled.
Home bouts are played at Skate Safe, 182 Bethpage-Sweet Hollow Rd. in Old Bethpage. The Roller Rebels have an upcoming all-star bout on Saturday, April 5 in Bethpage. Visit www.longislandrollerrebels.com for a schedule of future games or to learn about joining the team.

Nope this is not another blog in support of Elon Musk, it is another obituary.
Adam West the caped crusader of my youth died yesterday.
Batman and his pow-zap-wham-splatt Roy Lichtenstein pop type choreographed fights with the henchmen of the Penguin and the Joker was not available on the TWW TV channel in Wales, well at least not in our living room on our black and white TV.
It was only during the occasional visit to my grandmother's sisters house in Chatham Kent that I got a glimpse of Batman and Robin in the early evenings eating a Shippam's paste sandwich and roast chicken flavour crisps off a plastic plate.
Its about the only memory I have of those visits apart form doing the Hokey Cokey with "aunt" Molly and and her husband Les at their local club and a special lightbulb that heated the bathroom of their Bungalow.
Batman was a revelation, I had no idea he was American, I had very little understanding of what was America. Batman was a step towards adolescence from Gerry Anderson's Supermarionation of Torchy the Battery Boy, Supercar, Fireball XL5 and Stingray.
Catwoman was always going to be lot more interesting than Aqua Marina. Gerry Anderson still had Space 1999 up his sleeve.
I stopped buying Commando war comics and shouting "himmel" and "ausweis bitte" in the playground and instead read DC and Marvel purchased before the Washington Cinema Saturday club from Mr Snell.
I stopped drawing aerial battles between Spitfires and ME109's and started drawing Batman, Thor, the Silver surfer and Captain America.
The grey spandex TV super hero with his yellow utility belt was the bees knees until the arrival of Napoleon Solo a few years later.
I have the original corgi car, Batman and Robin are still in their seats.
Atomic Batteries to power Adam West.

Emma and Dave married in a traditional church wedding ceremony in North Yorkshire, followed by a wedding reception in a marquee in their own garden! The wedding took place on their 10th anniversary and had a beautiful blue and glittery gold colour scheme.
Emma and Dave first met through Emma's brother, who is friends with Dave. The couple have been together for 10 years – they got engaged after eight years together and planned their wedding so it would fall on their tenth anniversary.
The couple had bought a barn together which they had converted into their dream home. On the 12th May 2013 they had a party to celebrate Emma's birthday, which also doubled as a housewarming party. Dave got down on one knee in front of all their guests and asked Emma to be his wife.
The party became a triple celebration when he presented Emma with a beautiful emerald cut diamond on a white gold band. Dave and Emma spent two years planning their dream day and celebrated their wedding at home on their 10th anniversary.

Express Sympathy
On Wednesday, January 24, 2018, Edgar Georg Grunwald of Middletown, MD, died peacefully at home. Born November 7, 1927, he emigrated to the United States under the auspices of the refugee relief program; a part of the Marshall Plan, with his wife Christa and infant son in June 1956, settling in Middletown.
