Face lift
Face lift
A face lift is a technique that corrects drooping structures such as cheekbones, folds around the nose (nasolabial folds), cheeks, and the cervical region located behind the chin (cervical bands).
This surgery rejuvenates the face's features and skin by decreasing the appearance of wrinkles and folds in the forehead (if combined with a forehead lift), cheeks, neck, and around the eyes.
The patient can expect a younger looking face and fewer wrinkles thanks to the repositioning of their facial structures.

the selsey tramway
I've had a long and unusual relationship with the Selsey Tramway!
I first discovered it through a library book showing the loco 'Ringing Rock' on Selsey Shed, so determined to find out more. Amazingly my next door neighbour in Littlehampton had travelled regularly on the line (she was in her nineties in the early 70s!).
It opened in 1897 and closed in 1935. It was probably the most ramshackle of all the Colonel Stephens lines.
In about 1970 I cycled to it from home, around a 30 mile round trip. We reached the embankment at Sidlesham but couldn't really discover many remains.
I made a few trips later and took some photos particularly of the surviving platform at Hunston (which may well still be there) and of the surviving abutment of the swingbridge over the Chichester Canal. (These will doubtless appear in many years time when I get round to scanning them!)
It was disused routes like this that really got me into railways. Perhaps it was just their accessibility, or the sense of melancholy. Funny that forty years on I'm busy trying to get routes back!
In fact in the late nineties, when I lived at Bosham, I wrote a letter to the local paper reacting to a news story about the terrible congestion on the Chichester-Selsey road. Even then it was obvious how things were going to go, and I suggested that reopening the tramway would be a much better idea. Oddly the same paper ran an article - the same week! - about a group planning to reopen the line! I got actively involved with this group, quickly becoming vice chair, but I then moved to Wiltshire and I think the group just drifted. Perhaps it was just a decade or two ahead of its time. The line would be easy to restore as the landscape is completely flat and there's been no development of any consequence on the route. This is the sort of line that will thrive after Peak Oil, though this route is at risk of sea level rise.

Oh dear. That was the scoreline at the end of GP2's first ever rugby match last Sunday. It wasn't the team's first match, despite what the scoreline might suggest. But they were playing a team from Gala, in the Borders, and, as you'll all know, Borders lads are farmers' sons and built like tractors. Or cow sheds. Huge, in any case, and surely twice the size of their opponents. There was plenty of ducking and weaving but this was mostly from the Ross High team in their efforts to avoid tackling the trains that came hurtling towards them, clutching the ball, no need to pass as they banged down yet another try. I don't blame them – I'd have dived for cover at the first whistle.
Still, he said he'd enjoyed it, despite the bitter wind, tucked away safely out on the wing, and he got his hands on the ball once for a nanosecond before off-loading in the face of another juggernaut. Good strategy – let someone else get tackled! GP2, by the way, is one of the smaller boys in his year.
This first ever rugby match took place an hour and a half after the regular Sunday morning football match. Football has been his passion since he was a six year old so it was something of a surprise when he announced in the New Year that he was taking up rugby. Or maybe basketball. (He's small, remember.) Or perhaps both. Yes, let's do both – a lot of his school mates are doing both. It's entirely laudable, I'm sure you'll agree, to take part in plenty of sport with his friends. It's just that he already swims twice a week, plays badminton, tennis, squash and football and then there's the brass band. Pushy parent that I am, I'm expected to go along with it and act as primary facilitator. Chauffeur, in other words.
I could perhaps use homework as an excuse to cut down on all the driving that's required. "You won't have time for your school work! You'll have to give something up!" But, unlike his older brother, he's getting top marks in everything with deceptive ease and Parents' Evening was a real praise-fest. So we'll carry on with the lot for a little while until we see how it pans out and what really fits in. But there will have to be choices made at some point. Rugby or football? Life's tough when you're 13.

A Chronology of Cullen Sculpture Garden
The Brown Foundation, Inc., provides funds to purchase close to two city blocks of property across from the Museum, at Bissonnet Street and Montrose Boulevard. The land makes it feasible for the MFAH to begin plans for a formal sculpture garden.
Alice Pratt Brown, a Museum trustee and benefactor, visits the Billy Rose Sculpture Garden at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem and is impressed by Isamu Noguchi's design for the five-acre urban space.
Isamu Noguchi makes his initial visit the site to begin negotiations. He comes during a torrential rainstorm. Houston's weather causes him to consider an island or a sunken garden, similar to his garden design at Bienecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library at Yale University, in New Haven, Connecticut.
February: From his Long Island City studio, Noguchi begins to sculpt a preliminary model of the garden. Conceiving the garden as a walled-in sculptural entity, he writes to Museum director William Agee that "cozy nooks of bamboo without a sufficient barrier would be meaningless."
March 14: In motion #78-986, Houston City Council honors the Museum's request to designate the garden as the Lillie and Hugh Roy Cullen Sculpture Garden, in recognition of the Houston couple's benevolent contributions to the city's art and medical communities.
February: Noguchi brings a maquette of the Cullen Sculpture Garden to Houston. Displayed at the Museum, it elicits diverse responses from the community. Some Houston architects, as well as the Museum Area Municipal Association, call for a less introverted and more accessible design. Many claim the high walls connote elitism and will pose a barrier to visitors. Despite the controversy, the plan is approved and the Houston Chronicle reports that "it's full steam ahead on a major addition to Houston's culture."
April 4: Shoji Sadao of Noguchi's studio presents revised plans to the MFAH board of trustees. Noguchi has modified the wall heights to create "a more inviting atmosphere," and he has added additional greenery (vines and grassy embankments) and a northwest entrance.
February 6: Construction of the Cullen Sculpture Garden begins.
April 4: Isamu Noguchi, Houston Mayor Kathryn J. Whitmire, and Museum trustees Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Arnold Jr. lead a groundbreaking ceremony for the Cullen Sculpture Garden.
April 5: The Lillie and Hugh Roy Cullen Sculpture Garden opens to the public and becomes Noguchi's first U.S. sculpture garden created to house the work of other artists. Some 6,500 visitors attend the opening ceremony, which includes avant-garde composer John Cage's world-premiere performance of his composition "Ryoanji." In Artforum, Ed Hill and Suzanne Bloom discuss the performance as "a moment when the garden revealed its potential to move and breathe."
January 13: Ellsworth Kelly comes to the Cullen Sculpture Garden to install Houston Triptych, 1986, a formal response to Henri Matisse's Backs and to Noguchi's design. The triptych is placed on the west wall of the garden as the first work commissioned for the space.
June: The Washington Post reports that at the garden's one-year anniversary, as the plants and trees are maturing, "it is possible to predict that the Cullen Sculpture Garden at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, will become a preeminently restful urban island, a civilized respite wherein a precious few of the western world's better bronzes (or 'steels,' or 'aluminums') can be viewed at leisure."
To celebrate the 10-year anniversary, the MFAH publishes a catalogue on the Cullen Sculpture Garden.
The MFAH celebrates the Cullen Sculpture Garden's 20-year anniversary and publishes a new book about the garden: Isamu Noguchi: A Sculpture for Sculpture.

Hi, I'm Zach.
I'm a Wedding & Portrait photographer based out of Perth, Western Australia.
I've always been an artist and a creative soul but it is only through photography and the unguarded emotion of the people in front of my camera that I get to fully express my love for photography. I love to shoot candidly & naturally, revealing those true unique qualities involved at that time. Although I'm always willing to sacrifice my humility for a smile my photography style would be best described as warm and relaxed, unobtrusive and organic.

The latest blog post in the New Play Space Series:
Cloud technology is powering new types of multiplayer experiences. Can Shared AR bring us closer together and how can we use this new form of play to tell stories and connect with audiences?
The latest blog post in the New Play Space Series:
Cloud technology is powering new types of multiplayer experiences. Can Shared AR bring us closer together and how can we use this new form of play to tell stories and connect with audiences?
Of all the things that technology has achieved you would be forgiven for thinking that making us more social probably isn't one of them. After all, our phones have kept most of us head-down, tapping away at our virtual lives rather than engaging with the real people around us.
Now, however, with the exciting growth of AR (augmented reality), the tide is slowly starting to turn, and there's potential for this technology to give us opportunities to play together in unprecedented ways. For the first time, the virtual world and the 'real' world are working as one, and soon we will be able to look up from our phones back into the world we live in, towards the people who we share it with.
Up until now, AR has provided us with ways to augment physical objects, explore planet-scale play with games such as Wizards Unite and Pokemon Go, and immerse ourselves in stories such as the voice-driven adventures in the Wonderscope app. But whilst groundbreaking in their creative capabilities, these AR-driven experiences are largely designed for individual play. The real power of AR will come into play when we are able to share these experiences with each other. What if we could interact with the same objects in real time, together, where what's happening on my screen is also happening on yours?
A key building block for multiplayer AR is the assimilation of digital AR content with the 'real world'. This is known as meshing and, together with occlusion, enables digital objects to not only co-exist with the physical world but interact with and contextualise it. For example, this means the characters in your AR story can understand that they're in your living room, darting behind sofas, standing on your coffee table, hiding behind corners…
And not only this but thanks to persistence, if you leave the room and come back, the AI will remain in the same place as when you left it, opening up greater opportunities to build a story over time.
But perhaps the most exciting technological aspect of multiplayer AR is also the most challenging to get right: localisation i.e. the ability for the tech to know where we are in relation to who we're playing with. If you were playing a game of paintball, for example, and the other players appeared on your screen in different places to where they were in the 'real' world, you most likely would be pretty inaccurate…and that ruins the fun.
Luckily, 5G will help all this tech to reach its full potential and will ameliorate latency (lag in shared experiences will certainly dampen the immersive quality). The rise of edge computing, which sends information to the cloud to be processed, will also improve these experiences so that they run more smoothly.
With all this technology at full firepower, the creative possibilities to bring people together through play will be endless. It's opening up greater opportunities for storytelling – invite people into your space and build up a story over time. Then share it with the rest of the world.
From a cultural perspective, landmarks such as museums and historic sites will be able to utilise their venues in completely new ways, creating bespoke digital experiences that can be shared by multiple visitors at once, removing the need for hard staging, props or expensive construction.
Moreover, big, open spaces such as parks can be host to all sorts of digital play; new wearables (such as Apple's rumoured AR glasses) will mean that a muggles' game of Quidditch isn't such a farfetched idea…. With shared immersive play, brands have the opportunity to not only reach people but bring them together.
Crucially, shared AR will also be of unprecedented benefit to creating entertainment which has purpose and of the wealth of sectors that AR will benefit, education stands out. There have already been highly inspiring developments in both languages and chemistry for individual experiences, and when these evolve into multi-user, shared educational experiences, the potential for absorbing information collectively and collaboratively will be staggering.
As screen time becomes real time and we embrace this new social playground, we may well move on from lamenting technology for making us lonely, and begin celebrating its power to bring us together.

Thabo Mbeki (photo, from dailymail.co.uk), South African president, who has been mediating for more than a week between his Zimbabwean counterpart and Morgan Tsvangirai, the opposition's leader, is going to Harare, in order to hold talks with both sides.
A power-sharing deal may be close, suggest reports, despite a news blackout imposed on the discussions.
Although he did not elaborate, George Charamba, Zimbabwean government spokesman, said a "milestone" had been reached.
He told state media that Mr Mbeki was "going to meet the principals, basically to update them on the progress so far and to consult on how to take the dialogue forward".
"This is an important milestone that has been registered in the interparty dialogue", he added.
In June, Mr Tsvangirai pulled out of the presidential race alleging violence against his backers, and then Mr Mugabe won a run-off.
The aim of the talks is to create some form of coalition, said South African mediators, even though there is disagreement over who would lead a unity government and concerning Mr Mugabe's exact role.
Unqualified legitimacy
Mr Mbeki is expected to return to South Africa on Sunday afternoon.
The power-sharing deal would let Mr Mugabe retain the presidency, while Mr Tsvangirai would become prime minister with exective powers, report South Africa's media.
Yet, apart from statements from all sides saying that the talks have been progressing well, there has been no official comment on these reports.
Ahead of a mid-August summit of the Southern African Development Community, or Sadc, Mr Mbeki is under pressure to produce a solid outcome.
Fleeing Zimbabwe's worsening political and economic situation, hundreds of thousands of Zimbabweans have left their country, many crossing over the borders into neighbouring states of South Africa, Zambia and Botswana.
Robert Mugabe should be barred from the Sadc summit, suggested on Friday Phandu Skelemani, Botswana's foreign minister.
"The legal process of producing a government in Zimbabwe has failed […] those who claim to represent a government in Zimbabwe […] should be excluded from attending Sadc and African Union meetings as their participation in these meetings would be equal to giving them unqualified legitimacy", Mr Skelemani said.

Leaves fell all along the drive Kate took to work when she returned the first time since bringing Sarah home. Orange, maroon and gold leaves swirled from the oak and maple trees, and clusters of yellow and orange mums bloomed everywhere. When Kate and Sarah walked Buttons these days, they sometimes walked on a carpet of orange and brown leaves. The days were gradually getting cooler. And shorter.
When she arrived, Kelly and some of her other coworkers welcomed her back and she proudly showed them the few pictures of Sarah she had on her phone so far. Those who hadn't been to the shower and the guys who were interested (not many) said she was cute.
"Thanks," Kate said. She still had a hard time believing she was a mom and felt like it hadn't quite sunk in yet. Except for getting daycare and taking Sarah to the doctor, it all seemed surreal still.
Today Kate had a hard time concentrating on her work, wondering constantly how Sarah was doing. And Mrs. P for that matter. Mrs. P told Kate she could call at anytime or stop by on her lunch break if she wanted.
At the end of that first week, Sarah seemed to enjoy being with Mrs. P and saw her as a kind, generous grandmother. Kate was just relieved things were going as well as they were. If there was anything negative about the arrangement, it was that Sarah was being a little spoiled by Mrs. P. But if that was the worst thing she could complain about, she wasn't going to complain.
At least with her and Spencer's different schedules, Mrs. P only watched Sarah a couple full days a week. Kate didn't think that was so bad. And Spencer filled in the roll of dad almost perfectly. Perhaps maybe too perfectly.
On days when Spencer picked up Sarah they would go to Kate's, walk Buttons, then play at the park on nice days; or read books, play Candy Land and color if it was chilly. Kate loved seeing them together. It caused her to really consider when she might be ready to get married.
Kate's life had changed so much in such a short time, but she was going with the flow as best she could. Sarah was a treat and a darling little girl who loved to smile. She continued to call Spencer Mr. Daddy, which Kate and Spencer both found endearing.
Kate had a hard time wondering how she could be falling for Spencer so quickly after losing John. Did that mean she loved John less, did it mean she was cruel to John's memory? Should she have gone with Spencer in the first place? There was so much about Spencer she loved; it was hard not to fall in love with him. She wasn't sure why she didn't see it before. The questions didn't seem to have any answers and it confused her. Maybe it was because they spent so much time together.
Until next time,
P.S. This is the first post of chapter 11! Wow! I hope you are enjoying the story and if you have any questions or comments, please let me know!

Business Loans in the UK: Finding the Best Loan Solution
As both man and the industry continue to rely on loans heavily, the demands for loans and other loans services only continued to increase through the recent years. But as the number of borrowers reliant on loan services continued to rise, so did the number of those with unpaid debts. And as traditional lending firms and institutions struggled to address these problems, they eventually came up with a credit scoring system what was designed specifically to work towards their intended ends. Under this credit scoring system, lending institutions and firms were easily capable of classifying borrowers according to their finances. Borrowers whom they perceived to be highly unlikely to be capable of paying off their debts entirely were easily segregated from those whom the lending firms believed to be likely capable of paying off their loans with little to no problem at all. With this credit scoring system in place, individuals with income levels that do not meet what the lending institutions and firms have prescribed as the acceptable minimum were consequently given poor credit scores, while the borrowers who, for some reason, missed their payments either frequently or repeatedly had their financial records automatically reflect their bad payment history. But although this credit scoring system proved to be highly useful to the lending institutions and firms, its long term effects proved to be extremely harmful to the borrowers' finances in the long term.
Since borrowers with bad payment histories and poor credit scores were no longer allowed to secure any type of loan from any of the legitimate lending firms, borrowers who found themselves in pressing financial circumstances were often left with few, often impractical and sometimes downright unacceptable alternatives in times of urgent financial crises. Because asking for money from family and friends as well as selling off properties may not always be possible or easy, borrowers with bad credit who find themselves in urgent financial circumstances were often left with no other alternative than taking loans from underground lending firms. And while this option provides borrowers temporary financial resolutions, the long-term effects associated with these types of loan solutions leave many borrowers in even worse financial conditions. Because underground loans come in exceedingly high interest rates, borrowers are often trapped in an unending cycle of financial predicaments.
Getting Business Loans for Bad Credit
As more and more borrowers with bad credit find themselves in similar unending cycles of financial predicaments, a new market made up entirely of borrowers with bad payment histories and poor credit scores was eventually created. And as demands for more acceptable, more affordable, and more secure loan services continuously climbed in this newly created market, lending firms and institutions later on came up with innovative new loan solutions. With innovative new loan services such as business loans for bad credit, borrowers now have access to more acceptable, much more flexible, and much safer loan resolutions that can easily address their ongoing urgent financial situations. Unlike applications for many conventional business loans that are being offered by many of the traditional lending institutions and firms, applications for innovative financial services such as business loans for bad credit no longer necessitate borrowers to submit impossibly hard to secure requirements.
Through innovative new loan services such as business loans for bad credit, borrowers now have better options to address their unique financial situations. By availing of these more affordable, more secure, and much more flexible loan services, borrowers can now easily take care of the financial needs of their businesses. With business loans for bad credit, borrowers need not have to resort to illegal lending services.
How to Get Business Loans and Instant Loans for Bad Credit
With the latest advancements in security and technology, as well as the continuing evolution of the lending industry, innovative new loan services such as business loans for bad credit finally allow borrowers much faster and more convenient financial alternatives. With business loans and instant loan solutions, borrowers now have the option to submit their loan applications even straight out of the comfort of their very own homes. Through innovative new loan services such as business loans and instant loans for bad credit, borrowers may now submit both their applications as well as their requirements entirely over the internet. And since everything can now be done entirely online, borrowers finally have the convenience of being able to submit their applications from anywhere, and at any given time. Because loan applications for business loans and instant loans for bad credit may now be processed entirely over the internet, borrowers may now expect for their applications to be processed as soon as they are submitted. Consequently, approvals of applications for business loans and instant loans can now be expected as soon as they are processed. The release of approved business loans, on the other hand, can now be accomplished in as little as hours after the loan applications are submitted.
Due to these highly useful and convenient features of business loans and instant loans, these loan solutions actually make good options in addressing urgent financial situations. And because business loans are flexible loans that allow borrowers to avail of loans in much bigger amounts and far longer payment terms, these loan options also make great resolutions in addressing more complicated financial situations.
Getting Business Loans from Direct Lenders
Because of a myth that many commonly believe in, a lot of borrowers mistakenly assume that just because borrowing from the lenders directly saves borrowers from having to pay for loan brokers' fees, this option "yields more benefits and savings" in the long term. What many borrowers are completely unaware of is the fact that because loan brokers rely on their connections on different lenders from different areas to render their services, they consequently have access to all the different deals and discounts being offered by numerous lenders across their various lending services. Due to this, borrowers who avail of loans with the help of loan brokering firms actually enjoy far more privileges and so much more savings in the long term.

I do have to say, one of the best loan sites I have come across, they make everything so easy, with not very good credit history I didn't think I had a chance but they accepted me and I can get my life back on track. Thank you again Bizzy loans.

A really simple, quick and efficient system to use. The interest rate is a bit steep but it reflects the risk of lending to borrowers with poor credit ratings so I will not complain about that. Being able to pay off extra amounts with out penalties and only paying interest on the amount remaining makes it extremely fair to borrowers.

Krispy Kreme Bacon Hotdog Donut With Raspberry Jam
Krispy Kreme recently teamed up with the Wilmington Blue Rocks minor league baseball team to start selling this Bacon Hotdog Donut in their Delaware ballpark this season. If successful, Krispy Kreme is considering rolling the beast out in its stores nationwide. If unsuccessful, and I don't get to try one, you can add it to the long list of regrets I'll have to take to the grave, along with never owning a jetpack or participating in a bikini carwash. You know, my therapist told me I need to work on living my life with less regret, which made me think about how much I regret choosing that therapist. I PAY YOU TO TELL ME WHAT I WANT TO HEAR.
Thanks to RB, who agrees adding jalapenos better be an option, and they better be complimentary.

'Lady Bird' and 'Three Billboards' Named Best Pictures at the Golden Globes
The two movies named Best Picture at the 75th Golden Globes are Greta Gerwig's Lady Bird and Martin McDonagh's Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, the former in the musical/comedy category and the latter for drama.
As far as this awards show being watched for Academy Award predictions, it now seems it could be a heated competition between these ttitles, both of which are focused on women characters.
And as it turns out, the actresses playing those characters also won the Golden Globes for Best Actress --- Saoirse Ronan for Lady Bird and Frances McDormand for Three Billboards. The Oscar could now be either of theirs for the taking.
Because of the split between drama and musical/comedy at the Golden Globes, it also now looks like the lead actor race is between Gary Oldman for Darkest Hour and James Franco for The Disaster Artist.
The divisive Three Billboards was a big winner in general, some of its awards being real surprises. Sam Rockwell won Best Supporting Actor for his performance over presumed frontrunner Willem Dafoe and McDonagh won Best Screenplay in a category considered fairly wide open.
Other winners weren't sure things nor surprises, and these people and movies with a new extra step towards Academy favor include Allison Janney, who won Best Supporting Actress for I, Tonya, Pixar's Coco, which won Best Animated Feature, and Guillermo del Toro, who won Best Director for helming The Shape of Water.

New exhibition Embodying the Mother-Artist Model opened at USQ Artworx on Tuesday 5 February. The exhibition brings together six contemporary female visual artists who have made work from motherhood as part of a practice-led research project by USQ Doctor of Creative Arts candidate Linda Clark. Embracing Clark's Mother-Artist Model, featured artists have responded to their own authentic mother-artist experience, within their shifting and complex mother-child interrelationships, as a sustainable approach to contemporary art practice. Exposing the complexity of being tethered to another through motherhood, the artist's works create an alternate narrative around birth, caring, communication and child agency. Featuring artists working in regional settings including Linda Clark, Rhi Johnson, Christine Mills-Kelly, Susan Shantz, Alex Stalling and Joanne Stead. The exhibition will run until 27 February.

Grand Theft Auto IV is Great, But is it the Best Game in the Series?
A few weeks ago I bought GTA IV hoping for an amazing game, after reading all the reviews that gave it perfect scores. Well… I did get an amazing game! The problem is, I really don't think that it is the most amazingnest (you heard me) game in the series. I really believe that Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is the best game in the GTA series.

Nashville, despite the brief time we had, treated us so well.
Your Broad,
The drive from Atlanta to Nashville was uneventful, if not a relief. Our previous day in Atlanta had been stressful and unfortunate. It was nice to go to bed that night and just hit reset.
By the time we made it to Nashville, the sun was starting to dip down. Ellen had reserved a camping/glamping site on a private plot of land. And I gotta say, as the sun crept closer into the horizon and we drove away from civilization, I started to worry- I didn't tell anyone about this camp site, no one knows where I am, Ellen and I have literally no weapons on us or knowledge of how to take care of ourselves in the wilderness. I could tell Ellen could tell I was starting to freak out. The directions took us farther and farther away from civilization, the darkness stretched deeper and deeper before us, the moon loomed above us in mock knowingness.
By the time we reached the dirt road leading to the AirBnB, I was on edge, repeating 'this isn't right, I don't know about this, this isn't right'. It wasn't my most graceful or gracious moment and Ellen handled me well. The owner of the glamping site turned out to be a really nice guy and even though I was still wary of the situation, I started to settle down. It turned out to be such a lovely magical spot. We settled in and then wound our way back down to civilization to eat the best BBQ. You step out of the car and the smell of sweet sweet meat and sauce just surrounds you in an envelope of goodness. Take me back to that!
We didn't even have one full day in Nashville which was a true shame. We happened to go on the weekend of the Country Music Awards, so the streets were jammed with drunk cowboy hat and boot-laden men and women. It was sort of a shame because it was so crowded, but also really interesting to witness. Country music is not my jam, so it was sort of amazing being in the thick of a North American culture of which I know nothing.
The best part of this leg of our trip was the quiet night we had sitting in front of our glamping tent. No lights, no music. We didn't expect it, but a glint here, a flash there and then all around us: fireflies. It was beautiful, unexpected, and magical. I won't soon forget the way fireflies appear and disappear in bright flashes of electricity. Twinkling stars whose light doesn't have to travel light years to reach us. No pictures because there was just no way for us to capture the beauty.
Nashville, despite the brief time we had, treated us so well.
Your Broad,
These pictures are from my hometown of 30 years. Upon returning to California after six wonderful months abroad, I thought I might hate being in California. Untrue. I was sad, definitely. I missed England and traveling and my friends. But I had a renewed and unexpected appreciation for my home. It wasn't as classically beautiful and old, there weren't ancient cobblestone streets or fields of green stretching before me. But California certainly has its own unique beauty. Long Beach has a history of art deco-style which can still be seen in some of the architecture. My little dinky hometown, Bellflower, has its charms as well. Something about the vast urban sprawl of a suburban neighborhood can have its own appeal.
On that note, however, let me be clear that while I appreciate home and all its charms, I certainly hope I get to travel as much as possible. And it's starting off a good year because today I have all the joy of going to the airport and hopping on a 10.5 hour long flight. England, I'm coming back for ya!
Your Broad (Soon-to-be) Abroad (Again!),
Driving Up The 101
You can tell I was born and raised in Southern California just from the title of this post. I can't help it, it just comes naturally, that infamous 'the' rolling right off my tongue. I did some brief looking around and found this interesting write up regarding an article about the 'the'. I can't say I agree with either the author of the article or the post, but it's something to chew on while I post these pictures taken en route to Santa Barbara to photograph a wedding. I wish I'd taken more, but we were a tad strapped for time and couldn't really stop. Some of these images feel very prehistoric (if you removed the obvious markers of man like the giant building in the last photo) and it makes me love California's coast just a little bit more.
More to come, per usual.
Your Broad (No Longer) Abroad,
Terminal Island
I have always enjoyed the industrial skyline that Terminal Island offers up in place of the traditional landscape. Stacks of shipping containers, giant freighter ships, and the dirty isolated streets of a strictly industrial zone make up Terminal Island, which is nestled in between San Pedro and Long Beach. It takes two bridges to get to Terminal Island, but other than some beautiful industrial landscapes and a small yet touching memorial to the Japanese Fishing Village, which had every last one of its inhabitants sent to internment camps, there isn't much else.
If you look up pictures of the Japanese Fishing Village and then compare them to what Terminal Island is now, it's a little heartbreaking. It used to be a thriving community and now the one restaurant/convenience store I saw was dangerously dilapidated and though the sign said open, looked very much closed. It's a wasteland now.
More pictures, more writing soon.
Your Broad (No Longer) Abroad,
Copenhagen, Denmark
Finally, the bittersweet last post from my European travels. Copenhagen, you were the perfect end to a perfect trip.
I have a more in depth post of Copenhagen with some photos from my phone, so I won't dilly dally here. There is so much to do in Copenhagen that I wish I could have stayed longer. But the time I did spend there was glorious. Good times, great light, gorgeous colors.
From here, there isn't much left of my study abroad trip, but I've been storing away the photos I've taken since being back. I'll continue posting because, at heart, I'm always a broad abroad.
Your Broad (Always at Heart) Abroad,
I somehow forgot to post this flyer for a Study Abroad information presentation. Well, here it is now, and there's still time to make it on Thursday.
Your Broad (No Longer) Abroad,
Budapest on Film
Budapest was incredible. Arriving by train really made me yearn to take an entire Europe trip by train. It was such a beautiful way to see a lot of the country. I hear that taking the train through the Swiss Alps is a gorgeous ride. It's definitely on my travel list.
But back to Budapest. The 7 hour train ride from Prague to Budapest was well worth the time and money. No airport security hassle, no hassle at all really! We bought the tickets the day before we left and it was smooth chugging on the train tracks. Glorious countryside, quaint villages, and an amazing sunset in the rain. All ending in a lovely train station in Budapest. I could not have asked for a better train trip.
We booked massages at Széchenyi Spa Baths, something I was specifically looking forward to because there is nothing I enjoy more than being in water! We took a mediocre walking tour (perhaps one of the most lackluster of the many I did during my Euro travels), but it didn't put a damper on the amazing scenery. We ate really good Hungarian food, but I cannot for the life of me remember the name. Sad business because it would have been nice to find a recipe online and try to re-create the meal. I suppose I still can, it'll just take more research.
Budapest was one of the top places I wanted to visit during my study abroad and it was everything I imagined (save for the serious heat!). We met some really great people on our walking tour and had a great last night.
I'm sad to say that after this post, there's only one city left from my travels. It will be sad to post the final update, but I've already got photos from my time back in the States to post. I hope I can continue posting and updating. If there's one thing I learned while being abroad, it's that there is beauty, adventure, and something worth photographing anywhere you go.
Your Broad (No Longer) Abroad,
Kutná Hora
We'd been told by a few people to visit Kutná Hora for the Sedlec Ossuary, or the bone church, but never made any solid plans to visit. We had already planned to take the train from Prague to Budapest and since Kutná Hora is only an hour from Prague, we decided to take a detour. It was worth the few extra Koruna's to take the time to see hundreds of hundred year old bones.
The Sedlec Ossuary, which is an easy walk from the train station, is a morbid fascination and an absolute delight for those with macabre tendencies. Having just written poems on the mouth, I was particularly drawn to the jawbones and teeth (or lack of teeth). It's so rare to see what lies beneath all our flesh. The church is unfortunately rather small, but the amount of bones housed within the structure is pretty dazzling and the bones photographed beautifully.
There are two, maybe three, other churches within walking distance and they offer a special deal if you go to all of them, but as Justin and I were on our way to Budapest, we didn't visit. Perhaps another trip.
Your Broad (No Longer) Abroad,
Prague, Czech Republic
Our first day in Prague felt overwhelming and crowded. It was also right after a slightly scary experience getting to Catania airport in Italy, then spending the night in the airport, and catching a connecting flight in Rome, We were tired and emotionally drained and probably not at the top of our game for sightseeing/tourism. The Charles Bridge and surrounding area was so packed with tourists, it just felt like we couldn't get a moment for ourselves. Yet the beauty of Prague shone through all the mayhem and the tourism. The architecture alone was inspiring and breathtaking. The views from the tower at the Klementinum were just unbelievable. It's hard to not enjoy a place that can give you so much just from simple observation.
We also spent time at the Vyšerhad Cemetery which was further from the center of Prague, but worth every extra step we took. It was creepy and lush, full of strange busts of long dead people...just what a weirdo like me wants to see while on holiday.
I have more pictures from the Czech Republic, but will post them in another blog because I feel like they need their own space. Also, it gives me even more reason to look back on these pictures and reminisce about the beauty of Europe!
Your Broad (No Longer) Abroad,
Syracuse, Italy
Just a few from Syracuse, Italy and the teeny tiny island of Ortigia. By far some of the most beautiful water I've ever seen. Despite the slightly seedy experience of getting lost in Catania on the way to the airport, Italy was an amazing place.

Our guest contributor this week is Pat Barch, the Hoffman Estates Historian. This column originally appeared in the September 2012 issue of the Hoffman Estates Citizen, the village's newsletter. The column appears here, courtesy of the Village of Hoffman Estates.
The Northwest Toll Way is 54 years old. For the early residents of Hoffman Estates, the opening of the Northwest Toll Way on Aug. 20, 1958 was a reason to cheer. The toll way would make the trip back and forth to the city so much faster than taking Higgins Rd. or Golf Rd.
The construction of the toll way was a boon to developers in the area. Not only was F & S Construction building homes in the new Hoffman Estates development, but other neighboring towns such as Rolling Meadows and Elk Grove Village were also being built.
The farmland would soon change forever. A way of life was coming to an end. From the corn fields would spring the homes and then the commercial development that would provide jobs and a tax base for the new towns and villages. Over the years, the smell of corn growing in the fields would disappear.
The Werner farm was one of many to be torn down. It was located at Mudhank just south of Higgins. It had 12 buildings that included their beautiful 2 ½ story home. The Bierman farm was on the east side of Barrington just north of Higgins. If you get on the toll way at Barrington Rd. heading to the city, you'll drive right through the old farmstead. It had 9 buildings, among them the barn, hen house, tool shed and farmhouse. They all met with the bull dozer as progress on the tollway moved forward. Other farms included the Williams farm, the Stynaski farm, the Krumfuss farm and the Plote farm.
A book titled, The Illinois Department of Transportation, Illinois Farmland Acquisitions for Schaumburg Township in the reference area of the Schaumburg Township District Library, has photos, plats, appraisals and miscellaneous documents for those farms purchased for the toll way development. It has so much information about the process that took place, but of course nothing about the sorrow of giving up a farm that may have been in the family for several generations.
The farm equipment had to be sold as well as the livestock and miscellaneous items that another farmer might need. Many of the farmers held auctions. It wasn't easy to say good bye. Knowing that your home would be destroyed made the farm families realize that it was truly coming to an end. What was sold didn't bring much money, not even the land.
Many of the farmers moved further west. Some continued farming, others moved to a city life in Elgin, Palatine, Dundee or Roselle.

When Kari was diagnosed with an autoimmune disorder, she started to think about the connection between what she put on her skin and her over-all health. Kari wanted performance products and they needed to be kind to her skin. She couldn't find any products on the market that met her standards, at the time, so she went to her kitchen and immersed herself in the land of formulating and testing healthy skincare products. She developed a clean, back-to-basics routine that made sense for her skin's needs. And as It turned out, it made sense for everyone that tried her products, including her dear friend Lisa. When Lisa was gifted Kari's skincare line, she knew these products were too amazing not to be shared more widely, and above all, Lisa saw in Kari the love and passion she had for these products. It inspired Kari to continue to share her passion and her gift with more and more people. The two friends left their successful careers in real estate and together started Kari Gran.
