For Viewbank Early Childhood Centre to maintain the High Quality education and care offered to our families, clean and well equipped facilities, retention and training of its staffing team and to meet its many financial commitments, we need a commitment from our families to meet their financial obligations to the Centre.
Payment of a non-refundable booking fee.
Agreement to pay your weekly fee via the Centre's automated payment facility, PAYWAY.
Maintaining fee commitments one week in advance at all times.
Payment of fees and charges incurred by the Centre for the collection of monies and debts.
An email address for confirmation of payments.
Meet all conditions of our FEE POLICY as outlines below.
To maintain our financial integrity, VBECC requires all families to pay their weekly fees via our automated payment facility - PAYWAY. Every Thursday at 11am we automatically deduct your weekly fee from your nominated credit card/debit card/bank account. These details are kept locked away for your security.
At the conclusion of PAYWAY every Thursday, an email is sent to all families advising them that a debit has taken place. Due to the nature of the Governments IT system that manages the child care usage account, we cannot provide the amount with this email, as in many cases it varies each week. We are more than happy to provide these details over the phone at any time. As per our agreement with the Government, we provide families with a copy of their invoice/statement at the end of every calendar quarter via email. Should families need alternative arrangements, please consult the Admin Manager.
It is the responsibility of the card holder to ensure that sufficient funds are available for payment every Thursday. If funds are insufficient parents MUST contact the Office Manager by 4pm on Wednesday to make alternative arrangements. Failure to do see will result in a $3 dishonour fee should the account be transacted.
A fee of $30 for every fifteen minutes or part thereof will be charged for children left at the Centre after 6:30 p.m. to cover staff overtime costs. The person collecting the child will be asked to sign a late collection notice, and a stand alone invoice will then be sent to the parents for payment.
For permanent bookings the full fee will be charged for ALL days your child is booked into the Centre regardless of public holidays, family holidays, illnesses or school term breaks as per government guidelines.
Before leaving on holidays ALL fees for the period of the holiday MUST be paid in full. This is a holding fee for your permanent booking. Failure to pay will see your booking cancelled.
The Centre closes over the Christmas/New Year holiday period. During this time of centre closure, no fees are payable.
Under the Child Care Subsidy Scheme, each child is eligible to receive CCS for an initial 42 days of absences per financial year, which can be used for any reason without proof of circumstances. (includes public holidays) Once the initial 42 absence days have been used, additional absences may be claimed in certain circumstances.
All 42 absences must be exhausted before additional absences can be claimed.
Our PAYWAY system can be used to add additional charges such as book orders, haircuts, cakes etc. This will incur a $1 charge per transaction.
Two weeks notice must be given in writing before ceasing care or payment in lieu of care will be charged. Families who HAVE NOT contacted the Centre within a two week period, and whose fees are in arrears, will automatically have their booking cancelled.
The child has exhausted their initial 42 days of absence but supporting documentation such as a medical certificate cannot be provided for their absence.
In the event that the Family Assistance Office does not pay Child Care Benefit for the last sessions, the parents are liable for the full fee charged by the centre for those sessions.
Where families request extra days of care and their accounts are consistently in arrears, an upfront payment of the outstanding account and the extra usage is required before bookings are undertaken. All extra days need to be confirmed in an email to admin.
Accounts that fall two weeks in arrears will be issued with a letter and will be charged a weekly account keeping fee of $5 until the account returns to our fee payment terms. Failure to pay your fees will result in cancellation of your childcare place. Please discuss with the Office Manager if you are having any difficulties with payment of your fees.
Where families do not take up full usage of an advanced booking e.g. a full-time booking made in February to commence in July but later adjusted to two days per week, a penalty fee equivalent to the weekly fee for the original booking will apply. In some instances the booking may be cancelled.
Families may be entitled to a fee reducation through the Commonwealth Childcare Benefit Scheme (Child Care Subsidy) To apply you will need a 'My Gov' account where you can lodge your application. If successful you will receive an online assessment notice with your entitlement. You will need to bring a copy of your assessment into the centre so we can match your family and child's reference numbers through the Child Care Management System to receive your Child Care subsidy. To continue your eligibilty for CCS you must immedicately notify Centrelink every time there is a change in your financial circumstances. It is each family's responsibility to ensure their assessment is current. CCS is administered through the Government's Child Care Management System, so please ensure your family's details are up to date and the centre knows your Centrelink Reference details. If we do not have your Centrelink reference number, full fees will be charged until they are provided.
A CWA is an ongoing agreement between the service and a parent/guardian that contains a minimum amount of information as defined by the Government. The CWA is the only arrangement that will allow families to receive Child Care Subsidy and must state whether care will be routine or casual and the details about the days on which SESSIONS of care will be provided with start and end times.
Families must have their children immunised in accordance with the NHMRC Recommended Immunisation Schedule. Centrelink will need to be provided with this information when families apply for Childcare Subsidy.
All families attending Viewbank Early Childhood Centre must have up to date immunistion for their child.

Anglers the world over attest to the success they experience when using electronic fish finders. Up until recently, the technology has largely been designed for use aboard water-based crafts. Now, castable fish hunters make it possible for anglers to enjoy the same benefits of the devices whether on land or on the water. Lowrance makes a 3D and a Pro version of the innovative tools that increase the likelihood of going home with the day’s catch.
The fish hunters are no bigger than an average baseball and accommodate anglers in fresh or salt water. The sonar technology inside each device is easily controlled using a smartphone or other mobile device via Wi-Fi. But, best of all, you do not need an internet connection. However, if you do have online capability, you increase functionality through GPS tracking.
You need not worry about installing transducers or boat mounts for the fishfinder, which makes the Lowrance completely portable and ready to use out of the box. Each unit comes with a handy tote bag, a charging cord and a trolling rope. Once fully charged, the Lowrance’s capable internal battery provides eight to 10 hours of function.
Cast one of the Lowrance fish hunters from your land or water-based location and see what lies hidden below the water’s surface at depths of up to 160 feet. The unit remains on the surface of the water and emits a sonar in a cone-shaped signal that quickly provides water temperature and the fish lurking at different depths.
However, cast the device using at least 20-pound test line or heavier to prevent the line from breaking. You can also troll with the fish hunter in the water behind your boat, canoe or kayak at speeds of up to 2.5 miles per hour.
See the world beneath the water in either the traditional sonar view or the smart fish view. The sonar view displays fish in traditional arched images. Monitor the smart fish and sonar images simultaneously on a split screen. Adjust the sensitivity of the device using a side menu to see the action at certain depths, track various sizes of fish or to eliminate excess noise. Setting the sensitivity for fish size enables anglers to locate baitfish or to hone in on the prize catch of the day. The devices also include flashing technology, so you can use the device for ice fishing in the middle of winter.
The FishHunter is designed to be durable in outdoor temperature of down to 20 degrees below zero Fahrenheit. Enable the Bathymetric contour chart option to create customized colored maps or mark waypoints when finding your most successful fishing spots. Conversely, you can map an entire lake for future reference.
If you prefer not to actively watch your smartphone or mobile device, simply set the fish hunter to alarm mode and the unit will notify you when fish are detected. The top of each device blinks red when fish come into range.
Download the FishHunter app from IOS App or Google Play Store and monitor the angling progress of friends or live stream other anglers worldwide. You can also use the app to locate bait shops or marinas, post photographs of the day’s catch or share your spots with other anglers using the fish finder.
The app also features a logbook option to keep track of what you caught and where. Plan fishing trips according to the phases of the moon and monitor weather conditions. An incorporated database provides images of various fish species, their habits and bait choices to make your fishing adventure more successful. Your mobile device continues receiving calls and text messages while using the fish finder.
The Pro version uses a tri-frequency transduce that emits signals at 381 kHz, 475 kHz and 675 kHz. The sonar sends the cone-shaped signal downward. The bottom of the cone spans 150 feet in diameter. Using the raw view, you can also monitor the motion of your jig.
Simply cast the device into the water and receive a signal up to 200 feet away from your land or water-based location. The 3D version does everything the Pro fish hunter accomplishes and more. The underwater view expands into a three-dimensional image to provide a clearer picture of bottom contours, vegetation, manmade objects and fish.
The Lowrance 3D emits five interconnecting tri-frequency signals simultaneously. Each cone expands to 160 feet in diameter, which enables you to cover a wider range, and thus improves your fish-finding options. You also quickly see at what depth the fish are swimming. The fish images are displayed as fish icons that also display depth. However, setting the sensitivity level enable you to determine the size of fish you want to find.
All five signals are clearly displayed on your mobile device. When the unit detects action, the precise cone signal turns red to get your attention. Open the signal to see the action.

If you’re like most manufacturers and builders, you don’t put a lot of thought into where your raw materials come from. You source your materials from a supplier like Clinton Aluminum, who delivers your metal in a form that’s as close to ready to work with as possible, to your specifications. But the truth is that understanding how the metal and other components you need get into that form can actually have a positive effect on the way you select and process your key materials.
If you have questions about how your aluminum and stainless steel get processed, feel free to contact one of the trained technical professionals at Clinton Aluminum. We’ll be happy to discuss our methodologies with you and can advise customers on how to get the most out of their production activities.
Aluminum is one of the chemical elements on the periodic table, found in the boron group. It is referred to with its symbol Al and has the atomic number of 13. Although it is one of the most common elements on Earth, it is actually very rarely found in its native form. It makes up approximately 8% of the Earth’s crust, making it the third most abundant element, and the most abundant metal, following oxygen and silicon.
Pure aluminum, which is silvery-white, soft, ductile, and non-magnetic, is known to be very chemically reactive, which is why it is so rarely encountered on its own, even in the laboratory. Instead, there are more than 270 known minerals that are made up of some combination of aluminum and other elements. The most common and economically important of these ores is bauxite.
For these reasons, aluminum was discovered much later than most of the other common metals used commercially today. The origin of its name, and the impetus for its discovery, stems from alum, a hydrated sulfate that contains aluminum that has been known about and used commercially since antiquity. It wasn’t until the 1700’s, however, that scientists began to suspect that alum was made up of an as yet undiscovered element.
Starting in the 1760’s, researchers began attempting to extract aluminum, unsuccessfully, until the German scientist Friedrich Wöhler was able to isolate pure aluminum in 1845 and began to identify some of its properties. Although his method was not commercially viable, Wöhler has been recognized as the discoverer of aluminum.
How Does Aluminum Get Processed For Commercial Use?
After Wöhler’s discovery, it was another half-century of experimentation before an effective method of extracting aluminum was developed. It was actually discovered independently by two different scientists, French engineer Paul Héroult and American engineer Charles Martin Hall. The method is now collectively known as the Hall–Héroult process. The technique involves converting the mineral alumina into aluminum. A few years later, Austrian chemist Carl Joseph Bayer came up with a separate method for purifying bauxite in order to yield alumina. Together, these two methods made large-scale commercialization of aluminum possible.
It can be instructive to take a closer look at how these two processes work so that we have a better understanding of where aluminum comes from.
How Does The Bayer Process Work?
The first problem that needed to be solved in order to get aluminum was the fact that one of the most prevalent aluminum ores, bauxite, was not very useful by itself. But it does provide a relatively easy and abundant source of alumina, thanks to the Bayer Process.
First, the bauxite ore needs to be mechanically crushed. It can then be mixed with caustic soda and run through a grinding mill, creating a slurry. Next, the slurry gets pumped into a pressure cooker and heated to extremely high temperatures (as high as 270°C) for several hours. This forms a sodium aluminate solution that then gets passed through a series of flash tanks and into a settling tank.
This allows the impurities to be separated from the caustic soda, while the aluminum remains in dissolved form. The residue, known as red mud, can then be removed. The remaining liquid is pumped through cloth filters to remove the extremely fine impurities that have yet to be filtered out. The liquid next moves through precipitation tanks, to which alumina hydrate crystals are added, in order to extract the alumina from the liquid.
As the crystals grow, they settle at the bottom of the tank and are removed. They are then heated again in a kiln. This removes any water molecules that have bonded with the crystals, and the final result is pure alumina. After cooling, the alumina is ready for further processing.
How Does The Hall–Héroult Process Work?
In order to get pure aluminum, the alumina must be smelted. This occurs in a reduction pot that has been lined with carbon. This acts as an electrode, which is opposed by carbon rods suspended above the pot. Inside the reduction pot, the alumina crystals get dissolved into molten cryolite, which requires a temperature of at least 960° C. This results in an electrolyte solution that is able to conduct electricity. When a direct current is passed through the solution, it breaks the bonds between the aluminum and oxygen atoms. The oxygen combines with the carbon to form carbon dioxide, leaving behind pure aluminum.
As more alumina is added, more aluminum is processed, which should be about 99.8% pure. The molten metal gets transferred to a holding furnace, where it is shaped into ingots and hardened.
This of course is not the end of the process. Pure aluminum is not durable enough to have many commercial uses. Instead, the aluminum ingots will be used to create aluminum alloys. As every manufacturer knows, it is these aluminum alloys that have transformed nearly every type of industry over the last century. That is because aluminum alloys possess many desirable properties, such as superior strength, tremendous corrosion resistance, and extreme formability, not to mention an extremely attractive appearance.
The more you know about the process of creating aluminum, the better choices you can make about which material is best for your particular application. To learn more about which alloy is right for you, please contact one of the friendly and knowledgeable representatives from Clinton Aluminum today.

The Kannada movie fans worldwide have something to cheer for as an interesting flick comes theirway this Friday. Bearing a catchy title Prayanikara Gamanakke, which refers to Kind attention passengers - an announcement heard on railway and bus stations in India, the film will bring out a captivating story of a bus journey. Directed by Manohar, the film will see Bharta Sarja, Lokesh, Amitha Ranganath and Deepak Shetty in lead roles.
Prayanikara Gamanakke is set to live up to its name - seeking the “kind attention” of viewers. A statement or rather an announcement commonly heard of at the bus and railway stations -- Prayanikara Gamanakke -- will likely become a retainable name among the audience. The film depicts a bus journey and the struggles of the driver and conductor duo in letting the passengers reach the desired destination. It’s all about the challenges that come in front of Shankra and Dharma, the bus driver and conductor, respectively, during the journey between Hyedrabad and Bangalore. The drama thriller film combines the best of emotions, humour, a pinch of suspense and anticipation. The film will entail some common happenings around the lives of Bangalore residents who encounter challenges traveling in the buses. Prayanikara Gamanakke highlights the drastic change the bus journey brings about in the lives of the seven lead characters following the journey. The film was majorly shot in the dark to justify the feel of an evening journey. The seven different characters have interesting roles to play. The film also finds some exciting sequences including the one where the Herione in the film, Amitha, ends up riding a bullet to reach the pickup destination of the bus. Deepak Shetty, meanwhile, plays the role a charming and handsome cop. The film has beautifully weaved an interesting story around the lives of the eight characters blending it with the four-hour bus journey that turns out to be a thrill.
The film’s title alone has brought in much hype to it, evoking the excitement of every average Kannada move viewer. It has received over 98% votes by viewers who are looking forward to watchthe flick this Friday (May 18).

Garbage Truck Accidents in Residential Neighborhoods | Fountain Law Firm, P.C.
If you live in a residential neighborhood in Indianapolis, you undoubtedly have seen garbage trucks making their weekly rounds to pick up trash in curbside trashcans and dumpsters. These vehicles provide an essential service that allows for us to live in densely populated areas but also expose everyone around them to a significant risk of injury.
Any type of truck accident has the potential to result in serious injury, but garbage trucks are particularly dangerous because of their size and weight. Fortunately, in many cases, people who are hurt in garbage truck accidents are entitled to compensation under Indiana law. To find out whether you can file a claim, call our office today to speak to a personal injury lawyer in Indianapolis.
Garbage trucks often haul tons of trash. That extra weight makes them harder to stop than other vehicles, and may make them more likely to roll over.
What Should You Do After an Accident With an Indianapolis Garbage Truck?
In the unfortunate event that an accident with a trash truck in the Indianapolis area injures you or a loved one, it’s important that you take steps to protect your legal rights. Here are some of the things you should and should not do after you’ve been hurt in an accident.
If you can, take pictures of the aftermath of the accident. Be sure that the police respond to the scene and determine whether the garbage truck driver violated any traffic laws.
See your physician and undergo a thorough medical evaluation, even if you think that your injuries will heal on their own. An official medical record can go a long way when it comes to establishing damages to the insurance company.
Contact an attorney as soon as possible for a free consultation to be advised of your rights. Waiting to retain an attorney could hurt your ability to recover compensation.

hi everyone, I was just wondering if there were any replica swords of Bill's 'demon' sword from KIll Bill, i found some on american sites but none on any uk sites. I was curious if blades-uk have previously stocked them or if any are about. Any feedback would be great, thanks.
We can no longer get these I'm afraid, HMRC won't let them through as they don't believe they meet the definition in law of being 'traditionally hand forged', we could argue otherwise in court, and almost certainly win, but the costs don't make this course economically sane.
We may get something similar in a clay forged and folded finish that would clear customs, but price would be £299 and it wouldn't be until later in the year as we're concentrating on building up stock of Ninja Swords at present.
i have decided on the practical plus for now, however wanted a nice table stand, like the 'Black Lacquer Japanese Sword Display', I was wondering if you had the stand that just carries the katana with the padded shelf rather than the one on the site. If so I'l get to ordering it within the next few weeks, thanks again.

I’ve heard that finger-lickin’ is not allowed in finer circles. Rumor has it, you should only order foods that are easy to eat during business dinners. No spaghetti, no lobster, and definitely no ribs. The same goes for when you meet your in-laws for the first time.
Barbecued pork ribs can be made any number of ways, depending on the part of the USA you’re emulating. Some ribs are prepared as wet BBQ, meaning they are brushed with barbecue sauce throughout the cooking process, while others use a simple dry rub of assorted spices, as is popular in Memphis barbecue.
Even though I’m American, I really don’t have much experience cooking ribs, so I looked at The Best Recipe by Chris Kimball for inspiration. He suggested going with a dry rub, then brushing BBQ sauce over them at the end. I played around with a few combinations and came up with something we all loved.
Let me tell you something: I’m never looking back.
These ribs were beautifully spiced, ultra tender, and, yes, they were finger lickin’ good.
And, if you use hot paprika, these ribs have the perfect mild-medium burn.
Speaking of which: When I asked Amanda Hesser what she thought the biggest change was in American cooking over the last century+, she said the addition of chili peppers (and spices in general). That’s good news for these ribs.
Soak the wood chips an hour before grilling.
Meanwhile, mix together the spices.
Prepare the ribs by making sure the thin membrane on the underside of the rib is peeled away (often referred to as silverskin). Often the butcher has already done this (or can, if you ask nicely).
Rub the dry mix all over both racks of ribs (or you could just cook one and reserve half the spice rub for next time).
Let the spiced ribs set at room temperature for about an hour (or refrigerate up to one day before grilling).
Place the drained woodchips on the left side of the grill. Turn all burners to high and leave this way until the chips start smoking heavily. This will take about 20-30 minutes.
Turn off all the burners except the left one (with the wood chips). Lower the left one to low barbecue, or wherever it needs to be on your grill to get the heat come down to 225F.
Once the temperature stabilizes, add the ribs directly to the right side of the grill (off the heat, no foil) and cook for about 3 hours, turning every 30 minutes. Check the temperature every once in a while just in case.
Remove the ribs from the grill to a tray. Cover tightly with foil, then saran wrap. Let rest about an hour before cutting. This steams the meat and makes it ultra tender.
Brush with barbecue sauce as desired.

This looks delicious. I never would have believed that you can make authentic barbecue on a grill. I thought you needed a pit or a smoker. But this recipe converts a grill into a smoker. I’m not sure about steaming the meat though. This isn’t authentic and would ruin the division between crust, smoke ring, and meat. Still, Knotty Pine used to do this… that was their secret recipe… and people liked it. Also, what do you soak the wood chips in?
Just water! There’s still a nice crust, even with the steaming..and I think it makes the meat even more tender. I also like how it frees me up for an hour before serving them… there’s always a million other things to do when hosting a party, even if it’s a potluck!
Knotty Pine as in Tulsa/Sand Springs, OK Knotty Pine?
And I loved the America’s Test Kitchen shout-out! (I am slightly obsessed with their cookbooks- they have never steered me wrong.) I have yet to attempt anything from their grilling section (mainly because I’m afraid of my grill), but this looks absolutely do-able. And yummy.
Okay she hasn’t answered but I will. Really good ribs don’t need sauce. The favorite around here is Head Country.
Sorry – just answered – was in Beaver’s Bend for a long weekend and was without reliable internet since Wednesday. Thanks Brian!
Head Country – it’s an Oklahoma brand, made in Ponca City. And it’s yum!
I have a front and back burner (long and thin). I will adjust instructions and hope it works. Is that mac and cheese on the side?
I will defintely try this rib dish it looks lovely thanks for sharing!
Sasha: Have you and your husband ever used a smoker to cook ribs or brisket? I have a Weber grill but I’m lookin’ to buy a good smoker. I live in Houston, Tx. And by the way, where did your Ma-ma get the name Sasha? I like it. Thanks for your feedback and a great cooking web site.
I haven’t myself – the only time I smoked meat was when I was a student at the CIA – but that was a cold smoker. Sasha was a derivative of the Japanese name Musashi believe it or not! 🙂 Good luck with your search!

The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951) is often considered one of the greatest films of all time.
The military notes that an object is traveling through the atmosphere at 4,000 miles an hour. Soon, the news is broadcast all over the world causing fear and excitement. The craft lands in a field in Washington D.C. and is soon surrounded by soldiers and tanks. It remains still for two hours before a spaceman emerges. He states that he's come in peace and needs to speak to the president. As he removes a device from his suit, a jittery solider shoots him. He recovers in the hospital after revealing that the device was a gift and that he has a message that he needs to deliver to all the leaders of the earth.
This film has survived for sixty years and will survive for another sixty. It is clearly a product of its time, but its messages are timeless. This film takes most of the intriguing parts from the short story and elevates them using some brilliant yet simple touches.
Klaatu aka Mr. Carpenter is our hero this time around. He's not entirely open to us though. The film keeps his mission a secret only revealing small sections of it to those he trusts. The simple brilliance of Klaatu is that he acts like a decent human being. He is in awe of the great symbols of freedom around Washington D.C. and what they represent. Despite being from space he is the most human character in the film.
Bobby Benson is Helen's son and he's a very stereotypical fifties kid. He is critical to the plot and much less annoying than some other kid characters, so I give him a pass.
Professor Jacob Barnhardt is the world's leading scientist. After Klaatu's parley to earth's governments fails he turns to the scientists through Professor Barnhardt. After convincing him by helping him with an equation he agrees to help. I think the most telling,thing, especially today, is the professor sating "we scientists are too often ignored." More true now than ever.
Gort, much like Gnut, stands as a terrifying mystery until the end. Gort's actions make much more sense than Gnut's, even though they are theoretically completing the same objectives.
Humanity's own fear, greed and strife are the central villain of the piece. These are spread over several characters in order to create the feeling that these vices reside in all of us. From Secretary Harley's scoff about gathering the world's leaders to Tom Stevens' short sighted greed. There's even a great section where the news completely ignores Mr. Carpenter when tries to make a rational comment. This film picks out what makes humanity great and what makes it terrible.
The film is clearly set in its time. It features doctors smoking, boarding houses, and parents being fine with a stranger watching their kid for a day. These things create an interesting look back at a simpler time. There are some great shots of Washington D.C. and the surrounding area that are beautiful and brilliant. There's also the familiar grip of cold war politics, though this gives a much more even treatment than many other films. Also, unlike many of the other films I've reviewed, I had a difficult time choosing only a few screenshots. This film is masterfully shot!
The end is not the earth shattering finale that today's sci-fi blockbusters thrive on. Rather it's is a simple speech with a simple message. It is now considered a classic finale and definitely stands the test of time.
The ideas of government mistrust, news spreading fear, and the power of greed are more relevant now than back then. However; the message that humanity can overcome and move past these stumbling blocks is just as powerful. What prevents it from being perfect is that it has to oversimplify at points and that the Bensons don't get as strong characterization as they probably could have. However; this is one of those films that I feel should be seen by everyone. "Klaatu barada nikto" my friends.
"Despite being from space he is the most human character in the film".
Perhaps "most humane" rather than most "human"?

Where did the time go? I know I’m not the only one wondering this. Summer has flown by this year and we are already in August preparing to send our little ones back to school! And with that, comes the famous back-to-school photos to mark the start of a new school year. Whether it’s your child’s first year in school or one of many back-to-school days, take the time to capture the moment and get a great back-to-school photo of your child!
Check out these five tips for taking a great back-to-school photo this year!
A fun way to embrace the beginning of a new school year is to allow your kids to choose their own outfit! This goes especially for the younger kids in your family. The results of this can be pretty funny and will give you something to laugh about with your children as they grow older and gain a more keen fashion sense.
As a mom, I really can’t stress this enough! If you haven’t made an effort in the past to get in the shot with your kids on the first day of school, now is a great time to start! You can even make it a tradition and hop in one or more photos with your kids every year. As they grow older, you’ll be thankful that you took the time to capture these moments!
Using the same pose and the same location is a great idea for back-to-school photos! This will give you a consistent background every year to compare. You’ll be able to literally watch your kids grow from year-to-year!
Last, but not least, try to tell a story with your photos. If your kids are younger, they might let you take pictures from the moment they wake up and get ready, to them running to the bus stop! This is a great way to capture the full morning in action and to have the full experience to look back on.
With autumn upon us, it’s a great idea to start thinking about annual family photos! Contact me today to schedule your family session!
As a photographer, I’m always humbled when my clients appreciate my work and choose me to capture their special family memories. These Topsail Beach summer family portraits were even more special as this particular client is a fellow photographer who trusted in me to capture her creative vision. This fellow photographer, mom and North Carolina local, came to Topsail Beach for a quick getaway with her husband and two little girls. Although it was just a quick mini-vacation, she wanted to document these moments with her family. She and I both agreed that as moms and photographers, we find we are very rarely in photos with our families. So she finally decided to hire a professional photographer to capture her fun family beach memories.
We all met at the beach on a beautiful evening. It had rained earlier in the day like most of my sessions during the summer. The rain cleared up just in time for this session and the sun was able to peak through and say good evening with a gorgeous sunset! This family chose lovely pastel colors with light blues and pinks for their session, which really popped against the neutral colors of the beach. The two daughters were so much fun and really added life to the session. They were running around and playing in the sand, which allowed me to capture some genuine fun moments between them. I also got the whole family together for group photos and of course a few romantic shots of mom and dad!
Check out these beautiful Topsail Beach summer family portraits!
Beach sessions are a ton of fun and a great way to capture family memories whether you are a local or a visitor! If you’re interested in booking a family session, contact me!
There’s nothing quite as awesome as the bond between siblings, especially when the siblings happen to be twins! This brother and sister duo was just seven years old and a blast to work with. They were so adorable and had no problem showing some brother/sister love during these Wrightsville Beach twins family photos! Typically, siblings at this age can be really silly about hugging or holding hands for photos. Not these two! The grandparents also joined in the fun for a couple photos as well for some fun family photos.
This family session was my first try at shooting near the south end of Wrightsville beach, but I couldn’t resist the magical setting. This awesome spot provides a unique experience with water surrounding the beach on almost all sides. This makes for stunning sunset sessions with pretty pink and orange hues in the sky. Taking advantage of this, we ended the shoot with a family stroll along the shore with a stunning sunset in the background!
Check out these stunning Wrightsville Beach twins family photos!
Whether it’s for the kids or the whole family, it’s never a bad time to take advantage of the beautiful beaches of North Carolina. If you’re interested in setting up your next photo session, contact me today!
August is finally here, and with it comes the back-to-school woes for the kids! But with still a few weeks left of summer break, it’s not too late for some last-minute summer fun. With plenty of things to do with your kids before school starts, here are a few of my musts!
Check out these 3 things to do with your kids before school starts!
1. Check out Bump & Beyond for cute and functional back-to-school supplies.
It’s time for back to school and you know what that means! Yes, time to gather school supplies. The Bump & Beyond is one of my favorite local shops and mom-community where I can purchase fun and functional gear for my little one. You name it and they have it! Visit The Bump & Beyond for cute backpacks, lunch boxes and more!
2. Visit the Raleigh-Durham Life & Science Museum!
If you’re looking for a quick getaway or a mini-vacation before school starts, the Raleigh-Durham Life & Science Museum is the place for you! With over 84-acres of fun things to discover, a two-story interactive science center, over 60 species of live animals and more makes this one of the best spots for family fun! Check out some of the feature exhibits like the magic wings butterfly house where the kids can walk with hundreds of tropical butterflies. If that’s not your cup of tea, check out the dinosaur trail exhibit where the whole family can discover life during the age of the dinosaurs! It’s a little over two hours from Wilmington, so I like to stay the night in Raleigh to get the most out of the visit.
3. Stop by Manta’s Cuts to clean up that summer shag.
With school just around the corner and fall picture day top of mind, it’s the perfect time to get that summer shag cleaned up. Stop by Wilmington’s top kids salon, Manta’s Cuts for a fun and memorable experience for the kids! Manta’s Cuts was created by a local mother with two young boys who spent a ton of time researching and creating a unique children’s salon. Oh, and here’s a bonus: you can also get a cut and style while your kid plays on the indoor shipwreck!
Bonus–this one is just for you! Treat yourself to a massage or treatment at Ki Spa & Salon before the school year starts.
Ok moms, before all of the back-to-school hustle and bustle starts, let’s not forget about you! Treat yourself to a massage or other spa treat at Wilmington’s Ki Spa and Salon! Trust me, you wont regret taking advantage of some sweet time to yourself before the school year fills up with parent nights, school plays, little league sports and more! You can even check out the Spa Promotions for a special discount on your visit!
Of course, with the fall season fast approaching, make sure you don’t forget about those cherished fall family photos for your holiday cards! If you’re interested in booking a fall family session, contact me to make it happen!
This family lives just a couple hours away and booked me for these dreamy family photos at Wrightsville Beach. They brought along their two adorable girls, Eleanor and Aletta who loved the beach and were full of smiles during the entire session. Little Eleanor was turning three in just a few weeks, so mom brought a big balloon to add a special birthday theme to the session. This little addition was too cute and I loved the idea of celebrating little Eleanor! I enjoy when clients bring items or props that are important to them. It not only provides a fun spin on the photo session, but it also makes them extra special! Whether it’s a special family heirloom quilt to sit on, a bouquet of flowers for mom to hold or even a favorite stuffed animal, it can add a lot more meaning and personalization to the photos.
The weather was great and worked in our favor! We were given a perfect evening for this shoot. We had just enough cloud coverage to diffuse the intense light from the setting sun. The soft light worked beautifully before we caught a stunning sunset in the background. The sky turned a beautiful orange and pink that looked lovely with the pinks and blues in their outfits and the light glistened beautifully on the water as the family skipped alongside the shoreline. So dreamy!
Take a look at these Wrightsville Beach dreamy family photos!
Whether it’s a quick weekend getaway or a fun filled beachfront vacation, hiring a professional photographer to capture it all is a great way to share these moments! Be sure to Contact me today to set up your next family photo session.

Arcep welcomes the work performed by the French Government and Parliament which enabled the adoption of the Digital Republic Act on 7 October.
Among the many provisions in support of digital affairs, several measures come to strengthen Arcep's responsibilities in its role of architect and guardian of internet and fixed and mobile telecom networks. These measures give Arcep the means to implement the priorities identified in the conclusions of its strategic review, which were made public on 19 January of this year.
Following the adoption of European regulation on open internet access and of the BEREC guidelines (see the press release of 30 August 2016), the Digital Republic Act introduces the principle of net neutrality into the national legal framework, and endows Arcep with an investigatory and sanctioning power to ensure compliance. Arcep will thus be able to fully satisfy its mandate as custodian of the principle of net neutrality.
In light of the high expectations attached to mobile operators' coverage maps, Arcep has launched a project to enhance the coverage maps that operators publish, to more closely match users' actual experience (see the press release of 28 July 2016). This progress is also made possible by the Digital Republic Act which will enable Arcep to make these maps available as open data files. This means that anyone will be able to use them and develop innovative applications, notably in the area of comparing operators. Local players will, for instance, be able to perform their own monitoring of superfast broadband and mobile network rollouts in their area. This new mandate furthers the construction of data-driven regulation, which is one of the new forms of regulatory intervention that Arcep identified as part of its strategic review.
The Digital Republic Act also strengthens Arcep's ability to incentivize superfast network rollouts. These powers include the "fibre zone" system whose aim is to stimulate investment in networks, and to encourage the switch to optical fibre. Based on proposals from Arcep, the Minister will now set the terms and conditions for granting the status of "fibre zone," as well as the rights and obligations attached to this status. Arcep is has also been given the responsibility of granting "fibre zone" status.
Lastly, in a bid to free up innovation, a framework for the experimental use of frequencies and numbers has been defined: Arcep can, under certain conditions, temporarily relax an operator's obligations, to support its efforts to develop an innovative technology or service, from a technical or commercial standpoint.
The Act updates Arcep's investigatory powers, giving the Authority tools adapted to its expanded responsibilities, notably with respect to net neutrality. In particular, it sets out the conditions under which the seizure of documents, particularly digital ones, can be carried out within enterprises, along with the terms and conditions for making useful determinations based on a website.
Article 40 defines net neutrality and tasks Arcep with implementing it, in accordance with Regulation 2015/2120 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 November 2015, laying down measures concerning open internet access. This article also clarifies the fact that, when it believes there is a danger that an operator will not meet its obligations when due, Arcep can require said operator to comply ahead of time.
Article 42 stipulates that, as of 1 January 2018, all new terminal equipment that is to be sold or rented in France must be compatible with the IPV6 standard.
Article 43 clarifies and reinforces the conditions under which the Minister responsible for electronic communications and Arcep can conduct an investigation of operators.
Article 46 officially recognises Arcep's status of "autorité administrative indépendante" (quasi non-government organisation), and establishes gender parity for its Executive Board, with the exception of the Chair.
Article 61 provides for a reciprocal request for opinion between Arcep and CNIL.
Article 71 stipulates that, on a proposal from Arcep, the Minister responsible for electronic communications will set the terms and conditions of "fibre zone" status within the timeframe set by the Conseil d'Etat decree, along with any obligations attached to granting this status. "Fibre zone" status will be granted by Arcep. The decision on granting said status details the obligations incumbent on the party requesting it, and is forwarded to the Minister.
Article 79 doubles the maximum penalties that can be imposed on an operator for failing to comply with a formal notice to meet the coverage obligations listed in its frequency licence.
Article 80 stipulates that Arcep will make available to the public in an electronic format, with an easily reusable standard and citing its original sources, the digital coverage maps of France that electronic communications providers are required to publish, along with the data used to create them. The list of required data is determined by Arcep and supplied by operators.
Article 92 allows Arcep to suspend, for a maximum two years, some of the obligations normally incumbent on an operator that has been granted permission to use frequency or numbering resources for experimental purposes.

Key Words: Microsatellite, Genetic Diversity, Tanzanian indigenous chickens, Conservation.
Int. J. Biosci. 14(4), 15-25, April 2019.
This study was carried out to evaluate the genetic diversity of Central Tanzanian indigenous chicken. Chickens were collected from six different districts of Central part in Tanzania (Dodoma, Kondoa, Singida, Manyoni, Igunga and Tabora). Eighteen microsatellite markers recommended by International Society for Animal Genetics, Food and Agriculture Organization advisory group on animal genetic diversity were used to determine genetic variation. The microsatellite markers used were suitable for the measurement of the genetic diversity and relationship of Tanzanian chicken populations. Statistics related to genetic variation were estimated using GenALEx6. Genetic variation among population was 98% and 2% genetic variance was observed between the six populations. The least number of alleles was seven in MCW0111 locus and highly polymorphic locus was MCW0016 with 23 alleles with a grand mean heterozygosity of 0.779 ± 0.018 across the populations which indicate unlimited gene pool and high gene flow. Nei’s genetic distance ranged from 0.203 (lowest) between population of Kondoa and Singida to 0.583 (highest) between population of Tabora and Kondoa suggesting their genetic relatedness and dissimilarity. Principal of Coordinate Analysis (PCoA) results revealed diverse genetic variation within six populations analyzed. The distribution patterns of the chickens showed no distinct group based on the location specific rather than intermixing of the genotypes was observed suggesting random mating of chickens. This study found a lot of genetic variation and relatedness within and among populations. The results from this study can therefore serve as an initial step to plan the conservation of indigenous chickens in Tanzania.

26/04/2008 · I just recently purchased my home and there are two spigots outside that have handle damage. I am trying to fix them and I am wondering if anyone could tell me how to go about removing the old handle and possibly replacing it with a new one.... This :30 installation video show how to remove the old or broken outdoor faucet handle and replace with a. How to Fix a Leaky Frost Free Outdoor Faucet.
Replacing most frost-free faucets involves shutting off the water, unscrewing the old faucet, and screwing on the new one. If your old faucet is soldered in place, you may have to hire a plumber for the job, or you can cut off the supply pipe behind the soldered fitting and install a new faucet with a push-in fitting (SharkBite is one brand).
Hold the outdoor faucet handle stationary. There are two types of outdoor faucets used on homes, either a Sillcock or a Hose Bibb. The Sillcock has a round handle while the Hose Bibb has a straight handle, like two ears.
Follow these tips to troubleshoot a non-functioning outdoor spigot before calling in a plumber. A Faucet Too Far Also, ask your plumber about the best possible spot to install the new faucet.

Before writing, editing, and photography occupied my professional time, there was education, and there was little more joyful in those years than attending graduations.
Without question, topping the list was my daughter Kiersten’s high school graduation in 2006 from Ft. Zumwalt South High School in St. Peters, Missouri, and the memories were vivid as I attended Centre High School’s commencement Sunday. So different — about 400 in Kiersten’s graduating class, with the ceremony in 10,000-seat St. Charles Family Arena — and yet so similar. There’s nothing like the joy that comes from the symbolic turning of a tassel as your child officially becomes a young adult.
Close behind in memory are my own college graduations from the University of Kansas in 1983 and 1985. 1983 was memorable for the withering look I got from my parents when I showed them the birdcage I’d constructed for my cap — I intended to have my parakeet, Bert, accompany me to the ceremonies. I learned quickly that graduation is as much or more for parents as it is for their kids, and Bert stayed home.
However, I saved the cage, painted in crimson and blue, for my master’s graduation in 1985. If 1983 was about my folks, I reasoned, 1985 would be about me and Bert, my faithful companion. Alas, less than a week before the ceremony, Bert succumbed to old age. I toyed briefly with the idea of wiring him to the perch and taking him anyway, but it was the most bird-brained of ideas, hardly befitting my advanced degree. Another rite of passage, burial, preceded graduation.
I recall little of my graduation from Marion High in 1976, the nation’s bicentennial year. Our choir sang the then-standard “You’ll Never Walk Alone.” Who the valedictorian was, I haven’t a clue. The same goes for “words of wisdom” delivered by some long-forgotten guest speaker. It happened, though, and there was no going back, only forward, out into the “real world” — as if there’s much reality to being a full-time college student.
The one gift from that year that stands out came from Ed and Mary Costello — an umbrella. I thought it an odd gift, and I’m certain my expression of gratitude had a stilted air about it, but it was the most practical and oft-used gift of them all. I was truly saddened a few years later when a gust of wind bent it beyond repair. Another burial, this one in a Dumpster without ceremony.
As a college professor and administrator, I reveled in all of the graduations I attended, reverently donning my regalia to honor the accomplishments of students, most of whom I didn’t know. Among those I’d taught, there was always an inspirational story of perseverance that kept each ceremony fresh with anticipation and joy. Only educators can truly appreciate the dual thrills that come from celebrating students’ achievements while seeing one’s own hand in helping them to reach them. It’s humbling.
Hillsboro, Peabody-Burns, Centre, Goessel, and Tabor students had their rites of passage Saturday and Sunday, and Marion students will follow suit this weekend. Hearty congratulations to students, parents, school staff, and the communities that support them all.
And if you haven’t yet bought a special grad a gift, the past two days may offer a clue — get an umbrella. It’ll come in handy.
