Questions are always a good place to start a writing project, and to keep it going.
What if a man was accidentally marooned on Mars?
What if a boy and girl from feuding families fell in love?
What if a girl fell down a rabbit hole and ended up in a strange world?
What if books were outlawed and firemen started fires rather than putting them out?
What if the captain of a whaler becomes obsessed with hunting down and killing one specific whale?
The first book I wrote after becoming a Christian was Redeeming Love, and it didn't come from a question. It came from the life of a prophet, Hosea, and how God used him to show how deep God's love for His people is. I had been writing steamy historical romances set in California between the 1840s and the 1880s. God's love for each of us was so different from the love I had been writing about. His love is patient, passionate, persistent. He pursues us. I wanted readers who had followed my career to know what real love is. The book of Hosea laid out the entire story, but a question could have started it. What does real love look like?
I thought Redeeming Love would be the last novel I ever wrote, but questions kept coming up about what it means to walk by faith. And the best way I could think to answer them was by studying Scripture daily and writing a story with a cast of characters who play out all the possible answers—with one person clinging to the teachings of Jesus.
How do I share my faith when people don't want to read the Bible or hear the name of Jesus? This question launched A Voice in the Wind. Hadassah, a Jewish-Christian girl with weak faith, finds herself the sole survivor of her family after the fall of Jerusalem in 70 AD. The cast of characters live out their ideas of hedonism, tradition, paganism, idol worship, and self-reliance. Hadassah is tested on every front, and her trust in God deepens. What I learned in the months of writing this story is God is always faithful and people notice those who follow Him. A life of faith brings persecution, but persecution builds strength of character. People watch how we live, and eventually ask why we live the way we do. And when that question comes, God gives us the words to speak.
An Echo in the Darkness—How many times can you forgive someone who hates you and wants to destroy you?
The Atonement Child—Is there forgiveness and restoration for someone who has had an abortion?
The Scarlet Thread—What does sovereignty mean?
The Last Sin Eater—What is the difference between guilt and conviction?
And the Shofar Blew—What is a church? How do you build one?
My newest book, The Masterpiece, started with how early childhood trauma shapes the way a person thinks as they grow up. How can survivors be turned into victors? How does God use the worst things that happen in life to good purpose? Both Roman Velasco and Grace Moore are impacted by traumatic childhood experiences. How do they handle temptation? Each is a survivor, but what trials will it take to make them victors? The Masterpiece is a love story about two people with opposing points of view about life and eternity, and how God works behind the scenes so that they will be equally yoked.
Questions are a good starting place for Bible study. Right now, I have mentors on my mind. What does it take to be a good mentor? How many examples of mentors can I find in Scripture? What do these mentor-mentee relationships teach me? I'm beginning to see an older woman in my mind, one who has made many mistakes. She meets a young woman just starting adult life, and she's falling into the same problems and making the same (bad) decisions that destroyed the older woman's relationships. I imagine grown children for the older woman, children with major problems. I see her wishing she had lived life differently and hurting when she sees what's happening in the younger woman's life. Should she step up, step in, or mind her own business? How does a baby boomer relate to a millennial?
And so it happens. One question starts me thinking and presses me into God's Word for answers. Can we redo life? Can the past be untangled? How would that look? The quest begins.

I am twitterpated (I borrowed Kav's phrase) to have Francine Rivers at Seekerville!! Welcome!!!
The first book I ever read by you is Redeeming Love. This was very,very early in my Christian fiction reading career. Before I discovered all the wonderful authors I now know. True confession, God used that book to break a pretty hefty chain from my life that I had been carrying around for a long time & didn't really know it. IT CHANGED MY LIFE!! So I've been in awe of you...er, your books...ever since.
I did not know that book was your first Christian fiction! I've read a few other authors testimonies of how they used to write "steamier" romance before God convicted them and changed around their writing 180 degrees...Terri Blackstock being one of them. I too, used to read the regular Harlequin novels long before I discovered my first Love Inspired or Heartsong Presents. I guess that's all I knew, seems back then, there wasn't a huge Christian fiction category like there is nowadays. Once I tasted my first romance book...the kind of true love God orchestrates...nothing else satisfies me :-) I'm SO glad there are now an almost endless supply of authors who write with that same conviction!
Trixi, what a wonderful witness to the power of story. Thank you for sharing that!
Francine, welcome back! I'm so excited to see this new book from you and the story line behind it sounds wonderful... The image of success is so often different from the reality behind the "success".
Congratulations on your successes, but also on your kind and loving heart. You've set the tone for so many of us... and opened doors that might never have existed. You are not only a trailblazer, you're a vessel because you take us all along for the ride.
So good to see you here... And yes, there are a bunch of Francine books on my Keeper Shelf... And each one is like an old friend, the kind I like to revisit!
Good morning, Francine! Ditto what Ruthy said--together you and God touch so many hearts and have opened so many doors for other writers being led to write for Him. Thank you! And thank you for sharing today the probing questions that you've vividly illustrated the answers to in your stories.
Welcome back to Seekerville, Francine! Redeeming Love is my all-time favorite book! Thank you for writing that story. I'm so glad you had your conversion so RL could be given life.
The Masterpiece sounds like another Francine Rivers bestseller! Looking forward to reading the story.
I enjoyed your questions! A great way to brainstorm a story.
Who is one of my favorite Christian authors and how does she create such engaging stories? The answer to "who" is, of course, YOU!
BREAKFAST IS SERVED! A full breakfast spread provided by the ladies of Seekerville, so you know there's some Midwestern egg bakes, Southern grits-and-gravy, Yankee hash browns and a host of deliciousness with maybe a bit of seafood from our Mid-Atlantic regions. :) Coffee is here!
And don't forget the breakfast tacos, Ruthy.
Now biscuits and gravy I can get behind!
You Southwestern gals eat weird things for breakfast.
What to eat first??? It ALL sounds good!!!!
I've never had grits but have wanted to try them. But I've heard they have to be cooked the right for them to be good, guess I have to find me someone who can do 'em up right.
Missy--you are speaking my language with them biscuits & gravy, wooodoggie!! Pass the plate please!!
Good morning, Francine! Welcome to Seekerville! Thank you for all you do to mentor writers. I was pleased to meet you at an ACFW conference awhile back, and you left a lasting impression of graciousness.
I love your bravery in tackling those What If questions that often produce crises of faith in our lives. I love that God gives you the words that reach people who wouldn't pick up a Bible to look for answers.
Erica, I was thinking the same thing about how brave it is to ask those difficult questions that we often shy away from.
Right? She's got guts... and shuns the glory. Another reason to love you, Francine.
Welcome Francine Rivers. Your new book looks so interesting. I love the cover.
Wilani, I hope you're feeling better.
Barbara, I, too, loved how she shared the questions she asked for each book.
Welcome to Seekerville, Francine. What an honor to have you share with us! Congratulations on The Masterpiece. What a beautiful cover and it sounds like another amazing story!
Jackie, I love that cover, too. It makes me curious about the story.
Welcome to Seekerville, Francine. I love your books and my book group has read many of them. In fact, The Mark of the Lion series was how we started our book group which started 20 years ago this summer. In April we are reading The Masterpiece. I am looking forward to it!
I love the way your questions go much farther than the 5 W's and an H that I learned when I studied journalism! Those deep questions are the ones we wrestle with, and storytelling is the best way to answer them.
Put me in your fan club. The Scarlet Thread was the first of your books that I read, and it changed my view of Christian fiction.
Jan, that's one that I haven't read yet. I need to do that!
Good morning, Francine. What a pleasure to have you join us here at Seekerville. You have been an inspiration to so many of us authors and continue to be so. And this post is just one reason why. Great ideas, plus we got a little glimpse of your writing process. Thank you for being here to today.
Thank you for modeling the kinds of questions you ask as a writer, Francine. You made me think differently about my current project. What is the question I'm trying to answer? As I think about that, I can already see the Q&A bringing my story into sharper focus. I've read two Christian fiction books that were truly a spiritual experience for me...and Hadassah's story was one of them. She is a character who will always be in my heart.
Karen, isn't it amazing how just asking specific questions can bring sharper focus?
I am reading Francine's newest book right now and completely hooked just like always. So thankful for authors who are willing to write about hard subjects and touch on hard questions.
Amy, you're right. I'm thankful, too.
Francine, thank you so much for visiting Seekerville today. Your post is just what I needed to hear...God's timing.
People watch how we live, and eventually ask why we live the way we do. And when that question comes, God gives us the words to speak. YES! I pray this for my writing. Your books have touched so many. What a beautiful gift....used well!
Sherida, I, too, loved that quote.
Thanks for joining us in Seekerville today, Francine! I love your post so much, and it challenges me as a writer and makes me want to go deeper. Thanks for this thought-provoking look at where ideas come from.
And thank you for writing powerful stories that make a difference in the way readers view God and their relationship with him. Your books are truly a blessing.
Melanie, the post affected me the same way, making me want to go deeper.
REDEEMING LOVE holds a prominent place on my bookshelves. LOVED it. Such a hard read emotionally, but WOW...what a stunning example of beautiful, selfless love. Of course, all your stories are fantastic, but that one will forever hold a special place in my heart.
Oh, and FYI, every church body should read AND THE SHOFAR BLEW. Might save a lot of repercussions and heartache and teach a lesson or two.
Here's to continued success and fantastic story-telling! Cannot wait to read THE MASTERPIECE.
Cynthia, thanks for the recommendation of And the Shofar Blew. I'll be sure to check that one out.
Agreed on all counts, Cynthia!!!
I like seeing you gush!!!
Missy, I recommend all pastors, pastors' wives, church-goers, naysayers and in-betweeners read AND THE SHOFAR BLEW. Francine nails it. All of it.
Ruthy, I love, love, love Francine's books. I missed the ACFW conference when she keynoted and I was bereft for days. Such a big fan. She writes/speaks to the tough issues we Christians only dare whisper about.
Love seeing how questions turned into books. I've not read any of them so will have to check them out. Great post!
Yes!!! I'll have to check my bookcases. I'll bet I have one and don't know it lol.
Yes! I have one: A Voice in the Wind. I'll have to read it!
Wow - Francine Rivers in Seekerville! Thank you so much for being here and sharing how your questions became books. Though I love all your books, I believe my favorite is The Atonement Child. Not easy to read at times, but such a clear message of hope and love despite the circumstances. Thank you again for sharing with us today.
All I can say is that Francine is a master at creating masterpieces. And what's become even more obvious to me over the years is that she relinquishes the brush to The Master and let's Him paint the picture.
I can't wait to read The Masterpiece!
Francine, I'm deeply encouraged by your depth of questions and how you dig to the very core of a story's message with one or several provoking question. Wow. In the past two years, I have realized the art of asking questions to explore a character's inner and outer journey. Still not skilled at it yet, but I'm getting there! I'll definitely be sharing this article with my writing people!
Thank you so much for sharing here, Francine Rivers! I *Love* your Christian books! May God continue to speak through you and may He bless you and all of Seekerville!
I can't wait to read this book! Have read all your books, Francine, and loved them all!
Fantastic post Francine! I am looking forward to The Masterpiece.
Welcome, Francine. Thank you for sharing with us today---excellent post. I always enjoy reading how authors begin their writing process--so fascinating to begin with questions and have ideas to develop for an amazing story!
Congratulations on your wonderful writing success, and I'm looking forward to reading The Masterpiece.
Good Evening Francine and Seekers! Thank you for this wonderful post! Congratulations on your release of The Masterpiece!
Thank you for sharing the wonderful way you use questions to inspire your writing. I loved how you used inspiration from Hosea when writing Redeeming Love. It truly is a classic in Christian writing. Thank you for setting the standard.
Francine at Seekerville! Fangirl moment! (Which to me is having nothing to say with a smile a like wide!) Thank you, Francine for dropping in. I loved the process you've shown us for your inspiration.
I love Francine Rivers books—her books touch my soul! Thank you for sharing this post. It's always interesting to see how authors craft their works. And what a lovely surprise to see my sunrise picture that I sent in and for which I won a copy of The Masterpiece.
Ann, it's a gorgeous photo! Thanks for sharing it with everyone. It made a wonderful meme.
Francine-If you only knew how much Redeeming Love has meant to me! That was the book that (eventually) made me want to write. Since 2010, I have published 4 books, the most recent of which went live this morning.
You know how authors often skip over their first book to talk about their second one? I'm going to do that here. While I was working on The Long Road Around the Corner of Hope, I started another one called Crawling to the Light. It was this book that gave me the direction I was to go into. Melissa Leahy is a teenage girl who is on drugs. When she gets clean, she wants to kill herself. But on the way, she sees a church where a Christian rock band is playing. She goes in a watches the show. Jimmy Hensley, the lead singer, says he was once on drugs, himself. She meets him and he becomes her mentor.
What I'd love to do is make that and my subsequent books into Bible studies. My characters and all of the scenes are biblical illustrations. What made me think of this? Redeeming Love.

COL17A1 Polyclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of COL17A1 protein.
May play a role in the integrity of hemidesmosome and the attachment of basal keratinocytes to the underlying basement membrane.; The 120 kDa linear IgA disease antigen is an anchoring filament component involved in dermal-epidermal cohesion. Is the target of linear IgA bullous dermatosis autoantibodies.
The intracellular/endo domain is disulfide-linked.; Prolines at the third position of the tripeptide repeating unit (G-X-Y) are hydroxylated in some or all of the chains.; The ectodomain is shedded from the surface of keratinocytes resulting in a 120-kDa soluble form, also named as 120 kDa linear IgA disease antigen.

The popularity of the iPad tablet, and its unique capabilities make it an ideal tool for training. Here are five apps that can be useful in boosting your training efforts.
Morris Cooke designed this iPad app for school teachers. Nevertheless, Explain Everything is perfect for building your own training module. Think of EE as a whiteboard on steroids. Anything that you write, type, or import on to the screen can be saved and you can simultaneous record the actions with your voice. Import a PowerPoint deck, and it will save each slide as a separate page within EE. Pinch in and out to resize text or photos, and move the elements about the screen. Use the camera on the iPad to take photos or record videos. Video capture your presentation as picture-in-picture, or insert a pre-recorded video and play at any time. The program is incredibly robust. You'll have to spring $2.99 for the app. It's a heck of a bargain.
This app is described as doing for PowerPoint what YouTube does for video. So if you want to widely distribute a PowerPoint deck SlideShare is the obvious choice with about 2 million views per month. It doesn't handle fancy animations or transitions, but otherwise works flawlessly. You can separately sync an audio track with the deck. For training purposes, you could quickly and easily upload an existing PowerPoint deck, and distribute to your team. The free version of SlideShare is public. If you need to protect your trade secrets, an upgrade is available with that feature.
When it comes to using your iPad to make a PowerPoint presentation, SlideShark is the #1 app. It's easy to see why. It's an elegant slide presenter that handles PowerPoint special effects, transitions, and animations. If you have the correct Apple connectors it will interface with a variety of display screens or projectors, and you can even enable your iPhone as a wireless remote control – very slick. If you're using an external display set the iPad to presenter mode to display your notes and a timer. Kudos to the folks from Brainshark for developing this beautiful app. The basic app is free and it might be all you need. An upgrade to Pro get's you more storage, up to 5GB.
YouTube is owned by Google and is the 800 pound gorilla of video sharing sites. It's highly commercialized, but does allow you the ability to block ads on your own videos. It's free, and clearly a good choice for distributing training videos. If you desire, make your videos private so that only your team or customers can see them. Embed them on your website, blog, etc., or if you wish, configure your own YouTube channel.
I've had a Dropbox account for years, and used it regularly for file storage, but I'd never thought of Dropbox as a training tool. The sharing feature of Dropbox makes it an ideal cloud-based method of delivering training materials. However, configure Dropbox to share files and folders with different teams and remote locations and they can download and upload materials, work together on projects, and complete assessments. In essence, Dropbox becomes a basic Learning Management System (LMS). And since Dropbox is simple storage, it doesn't care what platform, programs, or file extensions are being used. Add this free app to your toolbox, and take advantage of its simplicity and strength.
Naturally, there are dozens of other apps in the training space, but these 5 will get you started in the right direction. If you've got a favorite that I've missed please let us know in the comment section.

Hello, Angara airline, I don't know where to write to you, so I'm writing here. It was hard for the Chita people to fly from Chita to Chara with three flights, they were catching up tickets every day for 1,5 months, then we arrive at 6 am before departure to the airport and wait for the annoyance, and if not, then we eat back, who to the hospital, and who to hell. And you have removed 1 flight. But they launched a flight from Irkutsk to Charu, which makes a landing in Chita and flies empty. What nonsense! Make a sale from Chita at 289.

Employees hotline of this airline is absolutely incompetent. Do not even try to understand the essence of the problem, simply rebuffing all unwanted visitors.

Even when the planes of other airlines flying schedule, this manages to delay flights for nearly a day, while not giving any explanation about what happened.
Vladimir 18 2015 in June 00: 14
I do not understand about perturbation flight delays varied over time. How can you not understand that due to the fact that the pilots wait a few hours until the storm stops, they will save it at least a hundred lives!

Hello! Bought tickets on the official website of the airline "Talakan-Irkutsk" and in the opposite direction. There flew without any problems. As for the return flight, everything is worse here. They wanted to put me on a plane, explaining that the ticket was used. As a consequence, I ran around the airport in tears with a child and heavy bags to find out the circumstances. At the ticket office I was told that it is not worth ordering tickets via the Internet. The representative said that he can not do anything yet. I got on the plane only at the last minute. The attitude of the airline to customers is extremely unhappy and I will not deal with them any more.

Thanks to Hangar for help in re-registration to another flight of the aircraft, the fact is that from our Russian plugs do not have time on a plane, so they're not left it all to fend for themselves, and sent a second flight on the same day, thank you so much for such an attitude to their customers, fly, fly and will fly directly with the company simply perfect!

I flew for the first time, but I was advised by the Angara airline. When we were all seated, we were offered the press and blankets, as needed. We took off calmly. Throughout the flight, the conductors offered various goodies and drinks. The flight attendants were kind, sociable. We were interested in whether it was comfortable in the chair, not hot, not cold. In general, I really liked it. The flight was great, I liked it. There is nothing to prejudice. Everything is just super. I hope to fly again soon)

Recently I flew with the Angara airline, I flew to Vladivostok. When I flew, there were a couple of people and a flight attendant on board. The stewardess was well-groomed, attentive and polite. We flew quickly and without any problems. I flew for the first time and liked everything. Thank you for such a service.

Delight! I do not expect that on the aircraft Russian airlines can be a service !!! Summer, many airlines hangar for the first time .. I suffer aerophobia, before takeoff, a flight attendant saw my tense face and immediately brought ammonia and water. During the flight, repeatedly came up just to make sure that I was all right. All the staff with friendly faces, no rudeness is not in sight.
Special thanks to the team and pilots taking off and landing on 5 +. One of the few flights that transferred normally, and it is only thanks to the crew! with great pleasure that I will use the services of this company. Once again, thank you very much for a really nice flight!

Questions and answers will be added to this list on an ongoing basis.
Will UCSF trip insurance cover me while I am in West Africa? Who will cover costs if I contract Ebola while on University-approved leave?
To be approved, host NGOs should have emergency medical coverage for their own volunteers. As a second line of support, UC's travel accident emergency medical coverage – for registered travelers – to cover the care needed preparatory to and during transport home. Once you are back in U.S., the ongoing care costs will fall to your group health insurance coverage.
What will happen to my benefits when I am on University-approved leave?
If you are on paid leave using vacation leave, hours from the Emergency Vacation Leave Sharing Program (EVLSP), or sick leave, you are eligible to continue health benefits if you maintain an average regular paid time of at least 17.5 hour per week. For more details about these and your other benefits, see the Paid Leave, Benefits Checklist.
If you are on a personal leave without pay, you can continue coverage for health benefits for a limited time by making personal payments for the full premiums directly to the Controller's Office. Review the Leave Without Pay factsheet for more details.
What should I do if I become disabled during my leave?
If you become disabled during your leave, please contact your HR Service Center (Campus employees) or the Leave Management Department at [email protected] (Medical Center employees) immediately upon your return to update your status and discuss your options for continuing your leave and benefits. You may also find the UC Travel Insurance, the Family and Medical Leave Factsheet, and the Your Guide to Disability Benefits fact sheet helpful.
How can I donate vacation days to volunteers with Ebola response effort?
We are no longer accepting donated hours for the Emergency Vacation Leave Sharing Program (EVLSP). Thank you for your interest and to everyone who donated. Travelers may still request donated hours.
What if my primary employer is not UCSF? Do these guidelines apply to me?
The guidelines above apply to you if your primary employer is UCSF. If you work at a UCSF site but your primary employer is not UCSF, such as the City and County of San Francisco or the Department of Veterans Affairs, you should refer to your primary employer's guidelines.
What if I travel to West Africa to assist with the response without being on UCSF-approved leave?
Those who wish to travel to the affected countries as private citizens, without formal UCSF sponsorship, must still request and be granted a written leave of absence from the Vice Dean for Education and Dean of their school. Residents and clinical fellows must similarly be granted a written leave of absence from their program director and then by their department chair and Dean (see FAQ Can I volunteer if I am a trainee?). Faculty and staff who wish to travel without taking part in the formal University-approved leave process must obtain the permission of their department chair for Campus employees or supervisor for Medical Center employees. In these circumstances, the travel will not be as part of a UCSF-sponsored educational or training program, and all requirements must nonetheless be met. Travelers in this category must meet all pre- and post-travel requirements as outlined above.
Can I volunteer if I am a trainee?
To protect our students and trainees from extraordinary risk, UCSF, by policy, does not approve or sponsor international educational programs (either financially or by providing academic credit towards degree or program completion) for students, residents or fellows from any school or program to any international site for which the US State Department has issued a travel warning or IJET has issued a Level 5 Security Warning. Requests for sponsorship of an educational program in a high-risk environment as an exception to this campus policy may only be approved by the Dean of the relevant school or the Graduate Division. Such an exception is unlikely except in the rare circumstance when the student or trainee's graduation requirements cannot be met by any other experience or travel. Students or trainees who wish to travel to Western Africa as private citizens, without UCSF sponsorship, must request and be granted an approved leave of absence from their program director. In this circumstance, the travel will not be as part of a UCSF-sponsored educational program.

Cyclist menace growing, nationally recognized
Emily Haddad
Illinois saw 3,107 cyclist collisions in 2011, with 1,757 in Chicago alone, according to the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT). The news regularly reports on cyclists being hit and killed by distracted drivers or wiping out and sustaining serious injuries on abruptly opened car doors. However, it is rare to hear about cyclists being held accountable for their own dangerous maneuvers, witnessed daily by automobile drivers and pedestrians alike. Several recent stories from around the nation have highlighted that police aren't sitting on their hands anymore. Those hands are now flipping sirens and writing tickets for scofflaws that make the road more dangerous for everyone. "Rogue cyclist" stories have made national news, such as 24-year-old Daniel Greer from Bushwick, NY, who received four tickets for running three red lights in a row and wearing headphones while cycling, racking up a total of $1,555 in fines, according to CBS New York.
Chicago is no exception to this phenomenon. Every day bicyclists risk their lives and the lives of others by ignoring traffic signals, blowing through stop signs, weaving through busy traffic and incredibly, texting while riding. Despite having the right-of-way, pedestrians at crosswalks often have to dive out of the way from bicyclists encroaching on the sidewalks or just riding through traffic to avoid stopping for red lights. Particularly problematic intersections, such as the one at Milwaukee Avenue, Des Plaines Street and Kinzie Street have even been the site of Chicago Police Department (CPD) cyclist sting operations. The last such sting in June of 2011 resulted in 240 warnings being handed out in just two hours, according to the Chicago Sun-Times. If Mayor Rahm Emanuel is looking for a new revenue stream, stationing some of those 500 new police officers he is hiring for 2013 along Milwaukee Avenue as bicycle-mounted officers might prove a lucrative move.
Chicago needs to step up enforcement of bicycle traffic violations. Without a concerted police effort, it would otherwise be difficult to curb the bad behavior of cyclists. Traffic violations that would normally attract the attention of the CPD when committed by an automobile become harder to enforce when committed by a bicycle because of the lack of a license plate and the very maneuverability of bicycles.
Drivers in the United States are lucky to have a fairly orderly traffic system supported judicially with rules enforced by the police. Traffic signals and specific signs make it clear who has the right-of-way in most situations, and every driver's license holder has had to study the rules of the road to get that license. In other countries such as Thailand and India, traffic is often a dangerous affair with few pedestrian rights, and ambiguous right-of-way rules that often becomes a game of chicken where the biggest vehicle wins by potential brute force. This lesson of size, while not an official part of the U.S. rules of the road should be taken to heart by cyclists in Chicago and all over the country. The bigger the vehicle, the more respect and attention it warrants to because of its potential to cause serious damage to a cyclist. Traffic laws are put in place for everyone's mutual protection; circumventing them puts cyclists at greater risk than other vehicles because of the lack of external protective material a vehicle such as a car would offer. This lesson was learned the hard way by a Chicago man who wove his bike around the lowered train crossing gates by the Kedzie
Brown Line station, and tried to speed past an oncoming CTA train on Sept. 17, 2012. The bigger vehicle won. It always will.
Having personally experienced cyclists suddenly diving out of the bike lane area without any signals, weaving through traffic, using cell phones while moving, running multiple red lights and cutting in front of my car abruptly, I can say with absolute certainty that cyclists are endangering themselves, and every driver around them who has to stop short to avoid hitting them. On countless cycling advocacy websites, one can find pro-cyclist rants justifying law-breaking behavior because bike riders are saving the earth by reducing their carbon footprint. Or it degrades into an anti-automobile discussion as soon as someone dusts off the old chestnut of "drivers don't like cyclists." This is somewhat true. As a driver, I am wary of cyclists because of their tendency to disobey the law and make commutes more difficult with their risky behavior. But as a law-abiding cyclist myself for the last 15 years, I absolutely hate the ridiculously dangerous behavior and entitled attitude my fellow Chicago cyclists are displaying on a daily basis. You are why drivers dislike us, and deserve to be ticketed for every violation you commit.


The intersection of Fisherman's Road and Commercial Road at Kuluin will have low growing foliage removed, a 'Give Way' sign relocated, green cycling pavement markings installed and signage upgraded.
The funding was provided under the Black Spot Programme, which identifies and treats black spots around the nation. Priority is given to locations with a history of serious road accidents.
Evaluation of the Black Spot Programme has shown it to be successful in reducing the incidence of road trauma.


The 2010 December Daring Bakers' challenge was hosted by Penny of Sweet Sadie's Baking. She chose to challenge Daring Bakers' to make Stollen. She adapted a friend's family recipe and combined it with information from friends, techniques from Peter Reinhart's book and Martha Stewart's demonstration.
I was thinking about this challenge all month! I have always wanted to try a Christmas Stollen. I have Martha' Stewart's mother's recipe from last year's Martha Christmas issue. I never got around to taking the time and making it. I did find another fabulous recipe and I LOVE IT!!!
I finally had a reason to make it! I am so happy I did!! This stollen was truly amazing! The recipe I used makes two. I made one full of dry fruits. The fruitcake kind of fruit. I remembered that fruit cake is my least favorite dessert because of the dried fruits. I gave it to my neighbors. They love that kind of fruit and were thrilled! The second one I filled with raisins and dried cranberries. Chopped pecans added a nice little crunch. I soaked the raisins and dried cranberries in hot water for 10 minutes. I could've soaked it in rum, but then the kids wouldn't have enjoyed it.
I will add a little icing the next time. The sweet dusting of powdered sugar was perfection.
This bread was still perfect on the third day. I chose to use a recipe I found online. It just made sense to me and I liked the story behind it. I hope you try this Christmas Stollen. Let me know what you choose to fill it with!
You must try this recipe!! It was perfect for Christmas day and for any day!
In a large bowl, combine the yeast mixture with the egg, white sugar, salt, butter, and 2 cups bread flour; beat well. Add the remaining flour, 1/4 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition. When the dough has begun to pull together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead in the currants, raisins, dried cherries, and citrus peel. Continue kneading until smooth, about 8 minutes.
Lightly oil a large bowl, place the dough in the bowl, and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then reduce heat to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C), and bake for a further 30 to 40 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow loaf to cool on a wire rack. Dust the cooled loaf with confectioners' sugar, and sprinkle with the cinnamon.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all my friends!!
This is one beautiful stollen! We used to love getting stollen from the Backerei in Germany when we lived there! This post brings back such wonderful memories! Kudos and enjoy!
That is one amazing looking Stollen. I saw many, but so far yours look the best!
Mmm, this bread looks great. Can you believe I have never heard of Stollen before? I just read about it for the first time over at Lindsey's blog. No idea where I've been all these years! Would love to try some though.
I like how you made it into a regular load instead of the wreath shape, it looks delicious!
wow your stollen looks wonderful. i decided not to do it because no one here would eat. we're not fruit cake-y fans. i'm glad you did it and did such a wonderful job. it looks fantastic.
Your stollen turned out beautiful! You can't beat Martha's recipes. Gorgeous job.
Your Stollen looks sp pretty and delicious!
Looks beautiful! I have never made this and you have inspired me. Happy Holidays!!
Hi. Your stollen looks perfect. Great job of adapting it to your own tastes too.
Your stollen looks beautiful! Sounds yummy too:) I have already decided to use raisins and cranberries also because none of us like the candied fruit. I better get to it! MERRY CHRISTMAS, Lora!
Stollen is of course big here in Germany. I never wanted to try the store bought versions because it looks so dry. But yours look so light and fluffy! Looks delicious!
your wonderful stollen made me realize…how late I am with this month challenge! I so want to make it and can't find the time. You gave me a great motivation. You did an amazing job!
this is a masterpiece congrats not easy to do and look this amazing!
The marzipan filling in stollen is the best! I'm with you on the candied fruit – not a fan. I much prefer real dried fruit. Beautiful stollen!
Che meraviglia! Tantissimi Auguri Cara!
This sounds wonderful, something I know I would love. It reminds me a little of panettone.
My husband loves stollen, I need to make it for him. You did a wonderful job with it.
I wish you and yours a Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas! This recipe looks really good!!
I love stollen, especially the kind filled with marzipan. But I would happily eat yours, dried fruitcake fruits or cranberries and raisins. i would eat it all!
This truly was a fabulous recipe and made for one of the best things I have ever eaten…and eaten…and eaten! Yours is perfect! Love the idea of two smaller ones flavored in different ways. Plus one to keep and one to give! A very very merry Christmas, Buon Natale, Tanti Auguri and lots of joy, health and happiness during this holiday season!
I love stollen, the more dried fruits in it the better. Yours look delicious.
Beautiful! I love love love tradional Christmas recipes like Buche de Noel and Stollen. Yours is so beautiful…in our house, Christmas tradition is the not-so-fancy pickle roll-ups.
this looks so lovely… fantastic creations as always! thanks for sharing this and happy holidays!
Stollen has always been one of my dad's favorite holiday desserts. After his bypass a few years back we stopped getting the usual one we purchased at the store, but yours looks so appealing. I think I might have to try my hand at home made. Nicely done!
Your stollen is so beautiful!!!
I love that you made it in the traditional form!
This Stollen looks amazing. I will really have to try this one.

A live concert recording of the New Brunswick band Screaming Females, playing an epic roster of songs filled with wild vocals and shrieking guitar solos, in a movie theater in Times Square for the multimedia event Primal Screams on March 15, 2016. The show spanned the group's whole musical career (including tunes from their 2015 album, Rose Mountain), and was accompanied by a video animation by Faye Orlove projected on the theater's massive screen. Primal Screams was a raucous night of underground bands with strong female forces, featuring Screaming Females, Guardian Alien, and Priests, hosted in the AMC Empire 25 movie theater, in collaboration with Times Square Arts. Each defiant performance of howling, shredding, and polyrhythmic drumming was accompanied by the premiere of an experimental video work, glowing on the theater's monumental screen. Screaming Females is an American independent rock band, from New Brunswick, New Jersey. They have released six full length albums. The band features Marissa Paternoster on guitar and vocals, Jarrett Dougherty on drums, and King Mike on bass. Their 2015 album, Rose Mountain - Don Giovanni, is a milestone in a number of ways. Screaming Females had such a clear goal for their new album that it became almost a mantra: they wanted songs that were concise, crisp and melodic. Not only does the album reflect a new approach to the band's songwriting, the LP marks the first time Screaming Females have worked with an outside producer, and also marks 10 years of playing together. This ten year period has taken the band from playing basement shows in their hometown of New Brunswick to touring with the likes of Dinosaur Jr., Ted Leo & the Pharmacists and Garbage, who teamed with Screaming Females to record a cover of Patti Smith's Because the Night. They have been featured on NPR and performed on Last Call With Carson Daly, building an audience without losing the focus and drive that inspired them in the first place.

Follow Trevor, the lead singer of Hedge Social, as he makes his way through a hipster's worst nightmare - vintage clothing shops, coffee parlors, used record stores have all closed forever! Oh and there's a zombie apocalypse too, but the coffee parlors!!
Hey summaky, it's most-likely due to a missing dll, I went through and added any dll's which could be critical. Are you running linux?
Looks fun, but can't get it to run on OSX.
Decently done, but controls take ages to get used to for isometric viewpoint. Levels get repetitive quick, lacks more mechanics/variety. Power pills also always happen to be right on the way to the exit and not a challenge to get. Besides score, not much motivation to get all the pills. I like the "heads" as characters. Music for a "zombie" game could have been a little heavier, but it's still good.
Hope this helps you port.
Hey foobaz thanks for letting me know, hmm, seems like it can't find the level file, I'll have to take a look.
I'm definitely a little weary of both hipster mockery and zombie games at this point, but apart from the extremely vanilla maze-navigation gameplay this is very well done!
Love the story-nuggets. The maze-navigation, combined with the zombies is also quite well done.
This is the first game so far I've played through all the way. So, cheers! You must have done something right. :) Nice little puzzle system and a charming setup.

Again Omisore Asks Jega to Remove Osun's REC
Posted by African Examiner Latest News, News, osun election 2014, Politics Friday, April 11th, 2014
Oyewale Oyelola
The PDP flag bearer for August 9, 2014 governorship election in Osun state; Senator Iyiola Omisore has called on Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC); Prof Attahiru Jega to remove Ambassador Olutoyin Akeju as Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in Osun state.
Prince Iyiola Omisore
Omisore made this call while receiving his Certificate of Return as PDP Governorship Candidate at PDP National Secretariat in Abuja on thursday.
He said: "I want to inform members of our party that we have an APC as an umpire called Ambassador Akeju. I want to task the national working committee and indeed Nigerians that for a free and fair election in Osun State, Akeju must go.
" I will appeal to the party to work with relevant agencies of government to ensure that the National Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Prof. Attahiru Jega, removes the Osun Resident Electoral Commissioner, Amb. Olutoyin Akeju. With Akeju free and fair election is not sure in Osun".
Omisore said his emergence marked the beginning of a new dawn for the people of Osun who were tired of three and a half years of misrule by Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola led APC government in the state.
"The task to uproot APC from Osun State is daunting but surmountable. The journey to remove APC from Osun and indeed the South West is a journey that must be undertaken, with the people behind us, I can assure the national headquarters of our party we can do it.
"I am aware of the task before me and am ready for it. I am on rescue mission, to rescue people of Osun state from Aregbesola's misrule".
National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Alhaji Adamu Mu'azu, while presenting the certificate of return to Omisore said said the task of uprooting governor Rauf Aregbesola and the All Progressives Congress from Osun State would be a difficult task, adding that the task is possible with Omisore as party flag bearer.
Mu'azu urged Senator Omisore to reconcile with the aggrieved members of the party in the state to ensure victory of the party in the governorship election slated for August 9.
The PDP National Chairman said, "You should know that your winning this primary is the beginning of a great beginning. The election before you is not a joke, you are going to uproot and remove another political party, it is not easy.
"I am sure you are a man not a small boy. I am sure you are a man not a woman, so you are up to the task. Prove to us and the members of the party that you have all it takes to do it."

India ([1]i /ˈɪndiə/), officially the Republic of India (Hindi: भारत गणराज्य Bhārat Gaṇarājya) is currently the largest populated nation in the world. It also leads in as being the nation with the most military personal.
The Indian economy is the world's eleventh largest by nominal GDP and fourth largest by purchasing power parity. Following market-based economic reforms in 1991, India has become one of the fastest growing major economies, and is considered a newly industrialized country; however, it continues to face the challenges of poverty, illiteracy, corruption and inadequate public health.
The Mountain Region (Parbat), situated in the Great Himalayan Range, makes up the northern part of India. It contains the highest elevations in the world including 8,848 metres (29,029 ft) height Mount Everest on the border with China. Seven other of the world's eight thousand metre peaks are in India or on its border with China: Lhotse, Makalu, Cho Oyu, Kanchenjunga, Dhaulagiri, Annapurna and Manaslu.
India's defining geological processes commenced seventy-five million years ago, when the Indian subcontinent, then part of the southern supercontinent began a northeastwards drift—lasting fifty million years—across the then unformed Indian Ocean. The subcontinent's subsequent collision with the Eurasian Plate and subduction under it, gave rise to the Himalayas, the planet's highest mountains, which now abut India in the north and the north-east. In the former seabed immediately south of the emerging Himalayas, plate movement created a vast trough, which, having gradually been filled with river-borne sediment,now forms the Indo-Gangetic Plain. To the west of this plain, and cut off from it by the Aravalli Range, lies the Thar Desert.
The New India
The region had became unstable, leading to the creation of a New India.
With water supply sanitation in Bangladesh falling to poor to horrible, Bangledesh government was unable to supply water to its people. Bangladesh had won its liberation war in 1971, but failed to supply its people with water, this lead to the people voting to rejoin India.
With failing ties with the King and his people, the people of Bhutan went into a total state of anarchy. The India government tried to set up a faction in the south but failed. With the year ending and the King dead, India had began the invasion to restore order to the war torn Bhutan.
The Unified Communist Party of Nepal had begun to stage a coup in 1996, killing almost the entire government. Factions began to arise in all corners of the Kingdom. India promised freedom to its people as did with Bhutan.
With the Sri Lankan Civil War taking flight in 1983, India sent in Peacekeeping Forces. India never pulled out nor did they put pressure on the rebels. With the killing Junius Richard Jayewardene, India began to push large amounts of military personal into the nation. This angerd the rebels to lead the assasination of Velupillai Prabhakaran, with this India began a full invasion of the country. By the 1990's only a few units of the rebels lived.
India is a federation with a parliamentary form of government, governed under the Constitution of India. It is a constitutional republic and representative democracy, "in which majority rule is tempered by minority rights protected by law." Federalism in India defines the power distribution between the centre and the states. The government is regulated by a checks and balances defined by Indian Constitution, which serves as the country's supreme legal document.
The Constitution of India came into force on 26 January 1950. The preamble of the constitution defines India as a sovereign, socialist, secular, democratic republic.India has a bicameral parliament operating under a Westminster-style parliamentary system. Its form of government was traditionally described as being 'quasi-federal' with a strong centre and weaker states,but it has grown increasingly federal since the late 1990s as a result of political, economic and social changes.
India has a parliamentary system of government based largely on that of the United Kingdom (Westminster system).
The IAF is one of the world's largest military force, with roughly 1.32 million active standing army, with 2.14 million reserve forces and 2.3 million paramilitary forces thus giving India the first largest standing army in the world as of 2011. The Indian Armed Forces are made up of the Army, Navy, Airforce and Coast Guard.
India possesses an arsenal of nuclear weapons and maintains a no-first use, non-use against non-nuclear nations and a credible nuclear deterrence policy against nuclear adversaries. India's nuclear missiles include the Prithvi, the Agni, the Shaurya, Sagarika, Dhanush, and others.
Foregin Relations
India keeps good relations with international groups and nations. While not entering World War III, has gone of high levels of military codes to ready for war. India promises to fight for freedom if the time is needed.

20 Hidden Facebook Features Only Power Users Know
Facebook is the principal digital public square of today. Well, it's the principal digital public square for those of a certain age (i.e. post-college, the young'ns aren't into it).
While Facebook's business model has evolved away from just Facebook.com to include its mobile incarnation and other associated apps, the old familiar website is still the preferred venue for many.
And why not? Facebook.com is one of the most advanced public-facing websites out there.
Facebook is a magnet for top engineering talent, so it stands to reason that the company would boast one of the world's most complex and multi-faceted websites. It rivals many standalone software apps with the sheer amount of personalization, tweaks and tinkering available to visitors.
In fact, there are so many things you can do on Facebook that you probably don't know about everything. We're talking about all the official, baked-in, easily accessible functions that are just a few clicks away. As you'll see in our slideshow, there are even some functions that appear to be leftovers from bygone eras that we're not even sure Facebook still knows are there. Take a look and awaken your inner power user social super star.
1. Want to see what your friends are up to without you?
When you see a post that a friend posted on another friend's wall, you will have the ability to see a detailed history of their friendship. Just click the little arrow in the top right hand of that post and then click "More Options." There, you will see the "see friendship" option.
There is one other way to access this. If you type in the URL your Facebook page, which is probably something like www.facebook.com/[first name].[last name] and then directly followed by ?and= and followed by the name of the second person. So, if you wanted to see the detailed Facebook relationship of Texas Senator Ted Cruz and former TV personality Jon Oliver, the link would be: www.facebook.com/JonOliver?and=TedCruz .
(As you'd see from the above, those two apparently haven't had much interaction.)
When playing with this URL trick, be sure to check the official URL of each person -- Facebook can assign strange characters into their official URL (for example, it will add a number if there is someone else with the same name).
2. See who's snooping in your Account
Want to know if someone is logged into your Facebook account without your permission? First, go to your settings page. Under the Security folder, you'll see the link "Where You're Logged In." Here you will find all your active Facebook log-ins from desktop or mobile. It will (usually) provide data on the location, browser and device. If something seems fishy, you also have the ability to "end activity" from individual or all devices.
This also comes in handy if you logged in to your friend's computer or on some public laptop, but forgot to log out.
3. Save Posts for later
Did you ever want to read a link that a friend shared on Facebook, but didn't have the time at that particular moment? Then, when you finally do have a moment, you either forgot about it, or it has been buried under so much other junk that it's not even worth searching for? We've all been there. That's why you should get acquainted with Facebook's "Save for Later" function.
If there's anything you want to save for later, click the little arrow in the top-right of any post. Then click the Save link button from the pull-down. This will send the link to your Saved folder. "Where's your Saved folder," you ask? Good question! You actually won't see it until you save something for the first time. Then you will see a little "saved" ribbon in your left-hand favorites bar. Click that and you will find all your favorite stories. It also works with any video your friends posted.
At F8 2016, Facebook announced it is extending "Save for Later" to the web, so you can save things to Facebook even when you're not on Facebook.com, a shot at services like Pocket and Instapaper. Facebook's first two partners are Overstock and Product Hunt, but any site can add the functionality, so look for it to expand over time.
4. Download a copy of ALL your Facebooking
Want your own personal copy of everything you've ever shared on Facebook? I'm talking, ev-er-y-thing: Every post, every image, every video, every message and chat conversation (not to mention all the settings you probably don't even think about)? You can do that!
Just go to Settings > General and click on the link "Download a copy of your Facebook data" at the bottom and follow the directions from there.
This feature lets you take a trip down memory lane, or just save your info should you ever decide to delete your FB account.
RELATED: 4 Facebook Content Types and How Often to Use Them
This tool is probably most useful to those in the legal profession as it can capture your Facebooking at a particular moment (social media posts can trigger lawsuits, after all).
5. The Facebook Inbox you didn't even know you had
If you've been a Facebook user for a while, then you probably have a folder full of unread messages that you didn't even know you had: the "Message Requests" folder (formerly, the "Other" folder.) This is where Facebook sends all the messages from people you're not currently friends with. It could be filled with old high school flings reaching out or a bunch of Nigerian spammers, who knows?! Only one way to find out!
To review these messages, click the "messages" icon at the top of your homescreen (or the "Messages" link in the left field). By default, you'll find yourself in the "Recent" tab of your inbox. Directly to the right, you'll find the "Message Request" tab. After you click this, you may see a link that says "See filtered requests." Click that and then you'll see all sorts of messages from strangers on the Internet. Have fun with that!
In 2012, Facebook experimented with allowing members to pay to reach the inboxes of non-friends. Fees started at $1 and went all the way up to $100 for Zuck himself, but the option to do this appears to be limited.
6. You can Transfer Files
If you open a Facebook Messenger window, there's a little paper clip icon along the bottom of the window. This allows you to upload a file directly from your computer to transfer over. The receiver can just click on the included link and download them from there.
7. Make Facebook Upsidedown or in Pirate Speak
Remember 10 years ago, when pirates were all the rage for a minute? Well, at one point the Facebook engineers got swept up in this ironic buccaneer frenzy and programmed a peculiar Easter egg that allows you to translate your Facebook interface into Pirate or Upsidedown speak.
Does this sound appealing to you for some reason? Go to General Account Settings > Language, and you can change your settings to either "English (Pirate)" or "English (Upside Down)." Think that's a whimsical little feature that you will never ever get sick of?! You're wrong. It's actually quite annoying.
8. Create a Customizable Supersized Post
Sometimes you want to share something that is worth more than a few sentences or a single image. If you don't have your own blog you can take advantage of a Facebook "Note." This is a personal blog post that lives inside the Facebook ecosystem. Here you can share paragraphs of text and multiple images (no HTML coding knowledge required).
Just head on over to facebook.com/notes where you'll find notes from people you follow. If you want to add your own, just click the "+ Write a Note" link in the top-right corner. Spill your thoughts out using the easy post editor, add a cover image if you want and share just like you would a regular Facebook post. If you can't finish your note in one sitting you can just save it and publish later.
9. Detail your Facebook Romance
If you want to see the detailed internet history of you and your significant other, go to www.facebook.com/us, and you will see the complete Facebook history with whomever you are listed as in a relationship with ("us," get it?). If you're not listed as being in a relationship, it will just go to your regular page because Facebook thinks that you are just in love with yourself.
10. Choose who controls your Account after you croak
Everyone on Facebook will die. One day. This may be true for other social networks as well, but you can definitely be assured that everyone you are friends with on Facebook will perish from this Earth. (Or, you know, unless the Singluarity comes to pass.) In anticipation of this unavoidable truth, Facebook has created a way to name a legacy contact who will manage your account after you are gone.
Your legacy contact will have the ability to write a pinned post for your profile, respond to new friend requests (e.g. friends or family who weren't on Facebook at the time of your demise) or update your profile and cover photo (do you really want your final image to be you in your ironic SpongeBob Halloween costume?) They won't have access to all your messages unless you proactively decide to give them access.
To assign a legacy contact, go to Settings > Security > Legacy Contact tab and choose one of your Facebook friends to handle your digital affairs. You will also have the opportunity to choose that your account is deleted after you die.
11. Add some Extra Security
It's a good idea to throw in some additional layers of security on your Facebook account. No, you shouldn't be worried that someone will break into your account and start "liking" BuzzFeed articles like crazy. But you should be concerned that someone could get in and use the information they find to steal your identity.
Here are two smart things you can do to protect yourself:
1. Create a log-in approval.
This setting will only allow your Facebook account to be opened on a new browser after you enter a special code sent to your phone. To enable it, go to Settings > Security > Login Approvals. You'll be sent a test code to verify your device's authenticity.
2. Create some Trusted Contacts.
Trusted Contacts are Facebook friends (you'll need to choose between three and five) who can securely help you regain access to your account -- for example if you forget your password or lose your mobile device -- or a nefarious person breaks in and decides to lock you out. To enable this function, just go to Settings > Security > Trusted Contacts. And remember, you can always change your contacts later.
12. Mute Facebook Live notifications
You may have seen a bunch of "live videos" popping up in your Facebook feed recently. Unfortunately, for now you are only able to broadcast live video through a mobile device (if you want to try it on your device, click the little person icon surrounded by a couple of halos at the bottom of a post).
RELATED: Content Marketing is the Only Marketing Left... and 10 New Marketing Lessons
You may have also noticed that you will sometimes receive a notification that a person or brand you follow is broadcasting live (it appears that Facebook will sometimes set this notification on by default). To turn these possibly unwanted notifications off, click the little inverted arrow next to the notification in the notification pull-down and choose "Turn off notifications about live videos from... ". Or, click through to the actual video and you will have the ability to toggle live video notifications on/off in the top-right corner of the video.
13. Don't let Facebook track your Mobile Browsing
Here's one feature you unfortunately won't find anywhere in Facebook, and that's the problem. When Facebook announced it was going to give users more control over ads in order to make them more targeted, it didn't exactly publicize the fact that it would also start using your app- and web-browsing history to show targeted ads from advertisers.
Unlike most Facebook privacy settings, you can't opt out of this kind of tracking. However, as the SecurityWatch blog points out, you can take steps to web surf in private. You can opt out via a special third-party site courtesy of the Digital Advertising Alliance. (Remember to disable AdBlocker Plus or other similar software you may be running). Follow a simple set of directions, and make sure to click the box next to Facebook and you can go about your internet business without third-party advertisers getting all up in your bizness.
14. Create an Interest List
There's a little-known Facebook function boringly called "interest lists." It's basically Facebook's version of Twitter lists (and should not to be confused with Facebook's "Friends lists"). Interest lists are a curated collection of posts from websites, companies or individuals that you follow in one streamlined feed (e.g. "indie hip-hop" or "local restaurants"). Interest lists may be kept private just for you or some friends, or can be made public for the world to follow.
To access interest lists, scroll down to the "Interests" link in the left column, hover over the header and click on "more." On the next page, click the "+Add Interests" button and you will have the option to search and follow other publicly available interest lists or create your own.
15. Curate your News Feed
Your News Feed is your home on Facebook. And as your home, you should try your best to keep it clean, orderly and free of distractions. You don't want to be inundated with posts from that one brand or friend you follow who just posts all. the. time.
One of the most direct ways to do this is by giving more voice to the things you want to see, while removing the stuff you don't want. The quickest way to access this feature is by clicking the three dots next to "News Feed" at the top of the left rail. Choose "Edit Preferences" from the pop-up screen, click "Prioritize who to see first," and choose the people, Pages and brands you want to see more or less of in your News Feed.
RELATED: How to Determine the Best Time to Post on Facebook for Maximum Reach and Engagement
You can also click "Unfollow people to hide their posts" to mute annoying posters (they won't know they've been muted). This feature is also accessible by clicking the little arrow in the top-right corner of a post and selecting "Unfollow [Friend]."
16. Mute your Ex on Facebook
Breaking up is hard to do. But Facebook has made it slightly easier to deal with. Currently this feature is only available on mobile, but when you change your relationship status to "single," Facebook will automatically ask you if you want to see less of your significant other. If you want to see less of anyone, you can still do that by unfriending or muting them as detailed in the previous slide.
17. You can Embed public content
Like other social media sites, Facebook allows you to embed publicly available content on your webpage. Just click the pull-down menu in the top right of the file and click "embed" to place the code wherever you'd like.
18. Edit your Ad Preferences
Do you hate-follow any celebrities or personalities on Facebook? A while back, I gave Kim Kardashian a follow. I was just curious more than anything. But then I noticed that the ads on Facebook feed began to ... change. Let's just say, I started getting ads for things I really wasn't all that interested in.
Facebook's business is built around providing marketers with detailed information on its users' interests, which Facebook's algorithms insinuate based on -- among other things -- celebrities and personalities they've actively followed. However, if you "like" something on Facebook that's a little out of your usual media diet, you also have the ability to keep your ad experience in check.
RELATED: 15 Free Ways to Market Your Business Online
To curate your ads, go to Settings > Ads > click "edit" next to "Ads based on my preferences." Here, you will find all the topics that Facebook has determined is a "preference" of yours, conveniently separated into categories. You can delete an interest simply by hitting delete on the right of each interest. Or, if you're a weirdo who's really into their Facebook ads, you can even add new preferences.
19. Send Money through Facebook
Do you have any old people near you right now? Ask them to tell you about "Western Union" -- that's how people used to send money before the internet.
In the digital age, there are lots of services that will allow you to transfer money from your computer or mobile device, including right through your Facebook account (as long as both the sender and recipient have a valid debit card). In addition (and probably of greater interest to Facebook), these payments will allow users to purchase products and make in-game purchases through Facebook.
While this feature is largely tied to Messenger, you can use it on regular Facebook as well. To set it up, go to Settings > Payments to enter a debit card. Once accepted, you can send (or request) funds to/from another user via Messenger.
To use this feature on Facebook.com, just open a pop-over conversation with one of your contacts (accessible via either the "Chat" window in the bottom-right-hand of your screen or through the Messenger icon in the right side of the top rail). Next, just click the dollar sign at the bottom of the chat window to send/request funds. Cha-ching!
20. Birthday Cam (IOS Only)
One of my favorite Facebook features is the Birthday reminders -- it's a nice way to keep in touch with people who you don't interact with on a daily basis. Recently, Facebook created a new feature (so far, it's only for the iOS app), in which users will be prompted to post a 15-second video on a friend's wall (as opposed to some generic birthday wishes).
When you visit a friend's profile on their birthday, you'll find a banner near the top giving you the option to create this video B-day wish. How sweet!

Part 1 of THE BEAUTY OF CAPTURING MOMENTS RATHER THEN RECREATING THEM – GeETTING READY PHOTOS.
Wedding photography… being a wedding photographer is hard work. It's a career that requires you to perform at your best no matter the situations or challenges that may arise. If it's a rainy day, the lighting in a room is horrible, everything is behind schedule due to a wardrobe malfunction or inclement weather you are still expected to produce amazing photographs that capture the day and tell a beautiful love story. You are also the bringer of good spirits, a positive attitude and a calm shoulder to lean on; the glue that holds everything together behind the scenes.
This month I will be sharing tips for capturing timeless moments as they unfold rather then recreated them on the wedding day. I find that a photos is so sincere and deep when you capture it as it unfolds rather then trying to recreate the perfect shot. This week I will start with he getting ready photos.
I adore the two shots above. The one on the left is of Kate's mother and sister helping her into her dress. The gentle, caring yet intent look on her mothers face says it all. You can just see how much she loves her daughter and wants to make sure the dress is on perfectly so her daughter will be radiant. The look only a mother can have. Had I tried to reenact this photo the facial expression would have been forced and arms stiff – instead everything here is fluid, graceful and filled with sincere deep emotion.
The second shot on the right is Kate's mother making sure the bows on the back of the dress are perfect. At that moment I realized both Kate's ring and her mothers ring were right next to each other so I used this opportunity to capture that beautiful quiet moment that no one else was noticing. And no the rings are not perfectly lined up on their fingers with the diamonds facing forward. That is exactly what tells the story as it was unfolding. Kate's mother was working to make her daughter look amazing, she was not concerned about herself at all. All her love, energy, and thinking was on her daughter. So why would she be concerned about her wedding ring. It the ring was lined up perfectly the story would be different. This small detail adds so much to the over all wedding day story and captures a moment in time that is so precious and intimate.
2. Open the drapes to bring in gorgeous natural light. If raining we are prepared with an external flash or steady light.
3. Hang the dress in the getting ready area. I also set up the brides shoes, jewelry, garter + touch up lipgloss on a table or chair near by to help facilitate the getting ready process.
4. I walk everyone through the getting ready process before hand, this includes the bride, mother of the bride and bridesmaids.
5. Once everything is in place and ready to go, I go with the flow. I try to give as little input as possible once the actual getting dressed is underway. Part of the story is them all working together to get the bride ready to walk down the isle. Of course if they ask for my help I am ready to help in any way I can. But for the most part I capture everything as it unfolds.
The grooms getting ready photos are just as important. While I am with the bride as she gets ready Brandon is always with the groom. When we first started shooting Brandon would just reenact the groom getting ready, usually because they would be pretty much dressed when he arrived at their room. The photos always came out good but they were missing that deep emotion the groom feels on his wedding day.
In lieu of this we started to ask our grooms to wait until Brandon arrives to start getting dressed. The photos we now capture in the moment have so much more emotion and story behind them. The top two photos of Adam getting ready are when he is actually getting dressed. There is not a slue of groomsmen helping him with each detail of his suit and making sure everything is perfect. Guys just don't work that way. Instead it is the story of a groom who is preparing himself to marry his beautiful bride. Ensuring that he is dressed to the nine, with style and class. Each detail just as important to him.
The bottom left photo is one I particularly adore. While Brandon was taking some detail shots he saw Adam slip into the other room all by himself with a letter in his hand. So Brandon stopped what he was doing and quietly walked into the room after Adam. There he saw Adam somewhat hidden by the closet reading a love letter Kate had written him. Adam had chosen to read the love letter in a secluded place almost as if to protect Kate's heart. To fully enjoy what she wanted to share with him without any distraction. A time dedicated to just her and her love. Brandon could have said "can you read that over there where their is a perfect background so we don't see the hangers and closet behind you". But he didn't because that would have taken away from the story. There is such a beauty to where Adam chose to read the letter. No its not what the "world" says was a perfect backdrop, but it was real, authentic and tells the story of a man who will always protect his bride and her heart.
The bottom right photo is of Adam and his best man, so classic. This tells the story of two men and how they interact at such a pivotal point in each others lives. As women we are usually face to face with lots of hugs and big tears when one of our friends are getting married. But here we see two men looking into the past, present and future all at once. Taking in the day as it unfolds. Two men that know, life from this moment on will be different, in their hearts lots of hugs and big tears still exist, but with a calm nature they stand tall with strength together.
3. Brandon will stylize all the grooms attire before he gets ready. Everything laid out, photographed and ready to go. Once he captures those photos the groom begins to put each piece on. Brandon will also make sure there is a seat (set in good light) for the groom to use when getting dressed.
4. Make the groom feel comfortable. Unlike ladies, guys are typically not as comfortable in front of the camera. This is where Brandon shines. He is a mans man. Brandon is great at making the grooms feel comfortable by making jokes and talking about, well what ever it is guys talk about. By the time we leave a wedding you would swear Brandon and the groom have known each other since high school.
5. Give the groom freedom. If a groom needs to walk around the room as he gets dress to kill the nerves, Brandon does not say a word. Instead he uses this as an a opportunity to move around the room himself to capture unique interesting angles that tell the story of the day.

Jeanne de Dammartin, née vers 1220, morte le  à Abbeville, comtesse d'Aumale (1237-1279) et de Ponthieu (1251-1279), est la fille de Simon de Dammartin, comte d'Aumale, et de la comtesse Marie de Ponthieu.

Biographie
Son père la fiance vers 1230, mais le roi  fait annuler les fiançailles. Elle épouse en premières noces en 1237 à Burgos  (1199 † 1252), roi de Castille et de León, avec qui elle a cinq enfants :
