Were you in Girl Scouts or Boy Scouts as a kid? I was, and I remember how fun it was. I also remember some of the key principles of being a boy scout was community, sharing, and developing key values.
Well Chloé is a Brownie Girl Scout. She is at an event for a beach cleanup right now as I write this.
During sign ups, I noticed that this event had much fewer girls than the others, which seemed more “fun”. You know, like overnight at zoo, Disney on ice, dancing events, etc. What was really sad is that it was the parent’s responsibility to sign up the kids.
OK, so let’s not sign our girls up for the shit that matters, only the fun ones?
There was no “limit” and I signed Chloe up to some of the other events too. These assholes were simply just dismissing this entirely for no reason at all other than not caring. They are passing that selfish piece of shit attitude right on down to their daughters. Events like cleaning up the town’s beach are what Girl Scouts are all about!
Fortunately this made me even more proud though that Chloe was not only being signed up for it. But even more so the fact that she was excited about going.
Compassion is one characteristic that stands out in Chloe. It is one of the many things that make her such a shining star. She doesn’t bitch and moan about having to go clean the beach. Alternatively she gets excited about it and everything involving something that is deemed “good”.
So you don’t have to comment here, because I doubt any of you would admit to doing so. But if you were a parent and were given the opportunity to sign your child up to a bunch of events, would you have chosen this one as well? Think long and hard about it because statistically 7 out of 10 of you probably wouldn’t, based off of what I saw. And if you wouldn’t bother, maybe I have helped a tiny bit to open yourself up to the possibility that maybe you should, for more reasons that I have listed here.
The shot at hand? I took Chloe to North Beach, which is a district in San Francisco known for tourists, restaurants, bars, sex shops, tattoos, etc. Walking by this alley, I noticed how colorful all of the buildings were. San Francisco is known for its houses of contrasting colors, but this alley really threw me for a rainbow color loop. The fucker was just plain rad. I put the camera on the ground, ran over, started to walk when a car came up behind me and…
SNAP!

*EDIT (again): I still have the same problem. Seemed to have been solved, but it is not. I hope it is resolved soon... :(
--------------------------------------------
*EDIT: Hi again! I installed the latest version of Firestorm, and I unchecked the VBO (you can find this in preferences - graphics) and now I am not having this problem! Try it, good luck :D

Hello dear friends;
I need to ask for your help (just in case you are able to help me) because I'm having a problem with Firestorm viewer since some time ago, and it's really annoying.
I would be very grateful if some of you take a couple of minutes to read this, maybe you know what's happening to me.
As I said, I use firestorm viewer, and my graphic card is an AMD-ATI. I have seen when I open the SL viewer window, that there exist a bug with this type of graphic cards. Now I understand why I'm having problems.
When I'm logged for a time in SL, when I have edited some items I'm wearing, when I have taken a few pictures, when I go to a nice sim, etc. etc. etc. there comes a time when all the textures (of clothing, or objects, or whatever) become blurred.
For you to understand, last night a friend sent me a TP to a place, and 10 mins after I arrived, this is how I saw the world:
gyazo.com/b0f930782a79a79171ad51fe06b44311
As you can see, any texture is displayed correctly, but blurred. I have visited the Firestorm page where they speak about ATI-AMD bugs ( wiki.phoenixviewer.com/ati#worn_rigged_mesh_goes_invisible ) but they don't speak about mine.
Please, if this happens to you, or you know what's the problem, or you think you could help me, leave a comment, I will really appreciate it. Thankyou in advance for your time and help.
Hugs, anne <3

An eastbound BNSF ballast train is about to crest Bozeman Pass with the helper set cut in behind the leader. This ballast train was delivered empty two evenings before at Laurel, and will be handed back off sometime in the night.
Helpers are cut in behind the leader due to buff force rules and the 1x1 DPU configuration that the train was delivered in.

Day 3 - Compassionate Touch
This was suppose to be a self-portrait of my hands in the frame, but Fin decided he needed to be in it as well. I can't think of any more compassionate touch than the human hand to that of a beloved pet.
these elephants looks old and forlorn, they faithfully ferry tourist up the hill top fortress daily, that day they stop operating by 10am as the heat is getting to stiffling 43C by then
I need two people to join me in some Trials Of Osiris, preferably above 320 light. only on Xbox One, comment your gt or add me De4thStorm1996.
I don't always (ever) return my doll's heads to their rightful bodies, so I just throw them into a storage container until I use them again.
Does anyone have better solution as to how to store my heads? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks,
Dia
For years I have struggled with ill health and very little help from drs in general. I have even ended up in A&E 3 times and been sent home non the wiser. I was desperate to get my life back so started to look around. Its only the last year I came across the B12 society and started to read symptoms of B12 deficiency and realised this could be my issue. A year later of doing self injections (something I never dreamed I could do ) and with the support of the B12 society B12Wakeup Facebook group I am beginning to see a very different me. It is truly a miracle in my eyes. I'm getting out and about and the fatigue has gone, the difference is amazing. I truly believe the b12 society gave me my life back and I will always be truly grateful to them and God for leading me to them.
I would encourage everyone to watch the Sally Pacholok film on youtube. Its eye opening and shows how so many illnesses eg dementia, MS , ME etc can be misdiagnosed B12 deficiency.

What could be the common link between the following clinical situations (all are real cases from my clinical practice):
1. 25-year old airhostess with rapid decline in memory and higher cognitive functions of 6 months duration (suggestive of #dementia),
2. 35-year old man with two weeks history of tremors, slowness of movements and rigidity (mimicking #Parkinsons disease),
3. 22-year old man with repeated #seizures (fits), which was difficult to control with anti-epileptic drugs,
4. 18-year old with features of #anxiety, #depression and #panic attacks of one year duration (had only partial relief with anti-depressants),
5. 30-year old lady with frank #psychosis (hallucinations, delusions) of six months duration,
6. 18-year old girl with 6-month history of tinnitus and #hearing impairment, which was getting worse over time,
7. Blurring of #vision and poor vision in a 22-year old man,
8. Burning, tingling and numbness of hands and feet for one year in a 28-year old man,
9. Hyperpigmentation (darker discoloration) of skin over hands and feet,
10. Generalized weakness, fatigue and breathlessness on exertion in a 25-year old woman (hemoglobin of 8 gm%)
Many of you would have correctly guessed it by now: All these clinical symptoms were caused by vitamin B12 deficiency.
You would be happy to note that they all improved with treatment.
The key to a good outcome in vitamin B12-deficiency related diseases is early diagnosis and prompt initiation of treatment.
Help, I need somebody,
Help, not just anybody,
Help, you know I need someone, help!
When I was young, so much young than today,
I never needed anybody's help in any way.
But now these days are gone, I'm not so self
assured,
Now I find I've changed my mind and opened up the
doors.
Help me if you can, I'm feeling down
And I do appreciate you being round.
Help me, get my feet back on the ground,
Won't you please, please help me.

Has anyone seen a larva or pupa like the one on this spider's abdomen? First time I've seen anything like this. Could it be parasitism?
Photo taken in mixed woodland in Central Scotland. I think the spider is a Garden Cross, length about 10 - 12mm including legs.
A friend of mine has an art salon called "Lost Art" and at the last opening there was a beautiful dance performance on the roof. Not a bad way to spend an evening!
Our good friend Cathy O'Shea is down in the dumps about her size. She can and should be any size she wants. Right now she could use some size-positive remarks [reposted with permission] www.flickr.com/photos/96625569@N08/9520898717/
I'm adjusting my stockings but I cannot really see if they are okay. Maybe you can help to check if both stockings are well aligned? Note that I'm very precise about this so you may need to get closer for a real thorough close inspection, or maybe even a helping hand.

"the help" .... ... yesterday Baby Jesus was born, for those who are Christians this represents an immense act of God's love for his children ... and it is to that God-Man that we often resort to asking for help .... who among us ... has never needed help ...?! .....
I photographed people I had never met before, I thank them for their sympathy and availability: I met Antonio and his girlfriend, who came to Taormina to spend the last day together, the next day Antonio will leave to go very far, unfortunately leaving his beloved, to see her again who knows when ... I met the Japanese companion of my dear friend Cesare, who flew to the sky many years ago, I knew about his companion, but I had never met her before ... I photographed a sweet Chinese girl that I met on three different occasions, each time with a little more confidence….
these are just a few minimal photographic stories, collected walking down the street ... in search of fleeting moments ...
For some photographs I used a particular photographic technique at the time of shooting, which in addition to capturing the surrounding space, also "inserted" a temporal dimension, with photos characterized by being moved (confused-blurred-imprecise-undecided) ... the Anglo-Saxon term that encloses this photographic genre with a single word is "blur", these images were thus made during the shooting phase, deliberately lengthening the exposure times, and not as an effect created later, in retrospect, in the post phase -production.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
"the help"...."l'aiuto" ...ieri è nato Gesù Bambino, per chi è cristiano questo rappresenta un atto d’amore immenso di Dio per i suoi figli...ed è a quel Dio-Uomo che spesso ricorriamo chiedendo aiuto.... chi tra noi...non ha mai avuto bisogno di aiuto...?!.....
ho fotografato persone che non avevo mai incontrato prima, le ringrazio per la loro simpatia e disponibilità: ho incontrato Antonio e la sua ragazza, venuti a Taormina per trascorrere l'ultimo giorno insieme, il giorno successivo Antonio partirà per andare molto lontano, lasciando purtroppo la sua amata, per rivederla poi chissà quando….Ho conosciuto la compagna Giapponese del mio carissimo amico Cesare, volato in cielo tanti anni fa, sapevo di questa sua compagna, ma non l’avevo mai conosciuta prima…Ho fotografato una dolce ragazza Cinese che ho incontrato in tre occasioni diverse, ogni volta con un pizzico di confidenza in più….
sono queste solo alcune storie fotografiche minime, raccolte camminando per la strada ... alla ricerca di attimi fugaci s-fuggenti ...
Ho utilizzato per alcune fotografie una tecnica fotografica particolare al momento dello scatto, che oltre a catturare lo spazio circostante, ha "inserito" anche una dimensione temporale, con foto caratterizzate dall’essere mosse (confuse-sfocate-imprecise-indecise)...il termine anglosassone che racchiude con una sola parola questo genere fotografico è "blur", queste immagni sono state così realizzate in fase di scatto, allungando volutamente i tempi di esposizione, e non come un effetto creato successivamente, a posteriori, in fase di post-produzione.

I need to put a house back to its box because I'm running out of space. I need help!! Which house should I put back?
First off, I think I need a better Butterfly book, so would love to hear your recommendations.
The closest match I can find in my current book is a Clouded Skipper. However, I am not very confident in the Clouded part. I am pretty confident that it is a Skipper of some variety. Any help would be appreciated.

Here is another photo from Monday’s session with the Redwing……..
Our smallest thrush, it is a common winter visitor. The pale stripe over the eye and the red patch on its flanks help to identify this member of the Thrush family. Redwings are sociable birds and will generally form large flocks for migration and their time in the UK in the winter months. Often forming mixed flocks with Fieldfares. The first returning redwings are usually seen in Britain in late September, with the big movements taking place in October.
Unlike other subspecies of the Thrush family, Redwings unusually tend to nest on the ground.
The nest site can be in a tree, bush, rotten tree stump, or even direct on the ground on a bank. The nest is made of twigs, grass, lichen and moss, and sometimes with an inner lining of mud, with the final lining being normally made up of fine grass. The overall final structure makes a substantial cup, with only the female bird having taken part in the construction. There are one or two broods per year of 5-6 eggs, and again only the female carries out the task of incubation. Thankfully, the male bird does get involved in feeding the young, and shares this role with the female.
The diet is varied and includes snails, earthworms, slugs and insects, then progressively more berries and fallen fruit in the winter months. Hawthorn, holly and rowan berries are the native species which are eaten, but in gardens, parks and shopping centre car parks etc. then berries from ornamental shrubs including pyracantha and cotoneaster will readily be eaten.
The chicks fledge just 14 days after hatching, allowing the parents to have a second brood.
It is estimated that between 50-100 pairs nest in the northern areas of Scotland. For wintering birds in the UK, this is estimated population is around 690,000 birds. Classified as Amber in the UK under birds of conservation concern . as with most wildlife in the uk the Goldcrest is protected under the wildlife and countryside act , 1981.
