Santa's Little Helper in Downtown Baker City Oregon
While exploring downtown Baker City for the holiday's, got to stop and visit with a local jeweler and spend some time watching him at his work bench as he busily worked on someone's Christmas present. We often think of retailers and other small businesses during the holidays but this is also a busy and fun time for local artisans and craftsmen who often find themselves serving as Santa's elves leading up to Christmas
Baker City, Oregon’s historic downtown is one of the largest and most intact turn of the 20th century downtowns in the Northwest and is surrounded by historic neighborhoods. The beautifully restored Geiser Grand Hotel is the iconic anchor of the revitalized downtown which is now home to many unique locally owned businesses including a number of galleries and, artist studios and great restaurants.
The surrounding historic neighborhoods are lovely year round but the annual Historic Baker City Holiday Parlor Tour, typically on the second full Saturday in December, offers visitors a chance to peek inside some of these beautiful historic homes decked out in their finest for the holidays.

Hello guys and gals, I'm uploading this image because I need your help.. my Skyrim has gone crazy.
The cause of my Skyrim's craziness is due to "eyes", and not those added by some mod like Iridum or TEOB, but Vanilla eyes.
I can't select Vanilla eyes anymore because my game CTD.
I can select those whose textures got replaced (I think) but if I select certain eyes I get a CTD.
I tried with different characters, I tried with most of the mods disabled (excluding Racemenu and a few others like SFO or WATER) but nothing.
I don't know why it happened and when, since I didn't change the eyes color for a long time, but this troubles me.. especially because it happens even when I don't have active mods.
Could it be something related to Chargen Extension? Or Female Facial Animations? (I didn't try with a male character, now I'll do a test)
Someone that has experienced this issue?
Any help is welcome!

So as you can see, Getty Images wants to license several of my photos. I have no idea what that means, and I would rather hear from real people than look at the website and try to figure out what they're all saying. That being said, what exactly do they want, how will I or my work benefit from this, and is there anything else I should know? Thanks guys!
P.S. I'm working on my Color Project, I promise! Life has just been so hectic that I haven't taken photos in over a week, but I'm hoping to today. :)
I'm making Arsenal. Should I make the base regular red or dark red? If I use regular red, everything with be accurate, but it will be a bit vibrant. If I use dark red, the darker colors will be altered, but the it will also have a dark theme that might look better. I could also make both versions and just scrap the one that I like less, but that's a bit of work. Help...

MY HELP
I will lift up mine eyes unto the sky
I will call upon the maker of heaven and earth
Is He not the creator?
Does He not know me?
Does He promise and then not do?
Yes and amen, is that true?
Is He a man of his word or no?
I ask you, can He stop this storm?
Can He stop the wind from blowing?
Can He quiet the thundering and the lightening?
Can He let the sun shine and quiet my black river of fear?
My answer is yes, He can deliver me!
I MUST PRAY
I promise
I will praise you in this storm my Father
Even though
The wind whips around me
Tearing pieces from my arms and legs
My heart is broken into total shreds of despair
My mind is running over mountains and valleys
I cannot slow down or get weary
I must run and run fast
Calling loudly to love
I LOVE YOU MY LOVE, I LOVE YOU MY LOVE
L ET me hold you in my arms and kiss away the hurt
I need to call back time
Like the go back on my PC
I need to go back
I need to let the calm of all my yester-years
Invade the ache in my heart
And rescue me from this thing called Dementia
I love you my sweetheart
And no disease can cure that love
For it is written in the stars
Signed in blood
Printed into everlasting life
Nether pain nor death nor disease
Nor anything man-made can separate us
From the LOVE of GOD
That is God's promise and our inheritance
That inheritance is from The Lord
For a home in heaven is our reward!
I WILL MEET YOU THERE MY DARLING
I LOVE YOU!

For the first time in 25 years, staff at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo are making preparations for the highly anticipated birth of an endangered Bornean orangutan. With a breeding recommendation from the Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ Species Survival Plan (SSP), the 19-year-old parents to be, female Batang and male Kyle, bred in January. On Feb. 2, a common human pregnancy test confirmed that Batang had successfully conceived. Earlier today, the Zoo announced Batang’s pregnancy through a broadcast via Facebook Live of her ultrasound; it will continue to provide weekly updates on Batang through Facebook, Twitter and Instagram using the hashtag #OrangutanStory.
Zoo veterinarians have conducted bi-weekly ultrasounds since Feb. 2 and are encouraged that the ultrasounds have shown fetal growth and development, heightening hopes that Batang will give birth for the first time. They are cautiously optimistic that she will deliver a healthy baby around mid-September. However, just like any animal pregnancy, there is a possibility that miscarriage, stillbirth or a complication could occur.
“All of our perseverance and planning paid off when we confirmed Batang’s pregnancy,” said Dr. Meredith Bastian, curator of primates and member of the Orangutan SSP Steering Committee. “Watching her fetus develop over the past few months has been incredibly exciting, and we’re making every effort to ensure our efforts come to fruition.”
For the past three years, keepers have been acclimating Batang to the experiences of motherhood and training her to care for an infant. Building upon behaviors Batang has learned through routine training sessions, keepers presented her with a plush, bean-shaped pillow and an orangutan stuffed animal to simulate a baby. Keepers trained her to hold the “fake” baby upright, carry it around the enclosure and return the pillow baby to keepers through a specially designed “baby box” when asked. Should animal care staff need to evaluate a real orangutan baby’s health, this training would help staff retrieve the infant in a way that is safe and not stressful for the animals. Batang has also been trained to use a breast pump for milk collection in the event she is unable to successfully nurse.
“Training increases the likelihood that orangutan mothers will care for their infants,” said Becky Malinsky, assistant curator of primates. “This training is especially important for a first time mother, like Batang. It is our goal for the infant to be raised by her mother, learning how to be an orangutan from Batang and the other orangutans at the zoo.”
In the event that Batang is unable or unwilling to care for her infant, keepers are training females Bonnie and Iris to act as surrogate mothers. They receive similar training to Batang, but with a slight twist: keepers ask them to bring the pillow baby and present it to the keepers for bottle feedings. Batang is also trained to present the infant for bottle feedings if she is unable to nurse. As a last resort, keepers will prepare a nursery in the event it is necessary for them to hand-raise the baby with the goal of returning the infant to its mother or surrogate as soon as possible.
Native to Indonesia, orangutans live in the tropical rainforests of Borneo and Sumatra. For the past seven decades, humans have cleared land that was originally orangutan territory in order to meet the growing demand for palm oil products, fast-growing pulp wood and food crops leaving orangutans in competition with one another for space, food and mates. Scientists estimate that in the past 75 years, the number of wild orangutans has decreased by 80 percent. The International Union for Conservation of Nature lists the Bornean orangutan as endangered and the Sumatran orangutan as critically endangered.
Visitors can see the Zoo’s six orangutans daily at the Great Ape House and the Think Tank. At the Great Ape House, visitors can meet a great ape keeper to learn about the fascinating world of apes at 11:30 a.m. daily. At Think Tank, staff and interpretive volunteers perform daily demonstrations and lead discussions on research in cognitive science, highlighting current and ongoing Zoo studies at 1:30 p.m. Visitors can also see the orangutans traveling on the O-Line on warm-weather days in the late morning and early afternoon.
