I just found that... sad. Being 5 years old, you can't make decisions - so it's your parents who make the actual decision. I saw several of these kids wandering around the streets in Yangon and Bagan - all of whom don't look that much happier than this kid here.

Today I found an extended family of Bald Eagles. I first spotted two juveniles that I believe were hatched this Spring, then found an adult in the same tree, then another adult in a nearby tree, and later what I assumed was a 1st year and a 2nd year. Overall, quite a family and it reminded me of the vast family responsibilities that many of us have taken on and cherish. Bald Eagles mate for life, and as America's National Emblem, they may be able to teach us important lessons about maintaining relationships and our commitment.

"Regardless of your academic focus, you will graduate having majored in leadership. The good news is that you will leave this hallowed institution well-prepared to meet the challenges your careers will place before you. When you graduate, look at your diploma. Understand what it represents. It doesn’t mean that you are ready to conquer the world any more than one from an Ivy League school, an MIT or Ga Tech, a Notre Dame, Michigan, Texas, or Stanford. It means you are ready to learn your profession through hands-on experience. It means you are ready to make your own luck.

Niki de Saint Phalle (born Catherine-Marie-Agnès Fal de Saint Phalle, 29 October 1930 – 21 May 2002) was a French-American[3][4] sculptor, painter, and filmmaker. Widely noted as one of the few female monumental sculptors, de Saint Phalle was also known for her social commitment and work.
She had a difficult and traumatic childhood and education, which she wrote about decades later. After an early marriage and two children, she began creating art in a naïve, experimental style. She first received worldwide attention for angry, violent assemblages which had been shot by firearms. These evolved into Nanas, light-hearted, whimsical, colorful, large-scale sculptures of animals, monsters, and female figures. Her most comprehensive work was the Tarot Garden, a large sculpture garden containing numerous works ranging up to house-sized creations. Her idiosyncratic style has been called "outsider art"; she had no formal training in art,but associated freely with many other contemporary artists, writers, and composers.
Throughout her creative career, she collaborated with other well-known artists such as Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Larry Rivers, composer John Cage, and architect Mario Botta, as well as dozens of less-known artists and craftspersons. For several decades, she worked especially closely with Swiss kinetic artist Jean Tinguely, who also became her second husband. In her later years, she suffered from multiple chronic health problems attributed to repeated exposure to glass fibers and petrochemical fumes from the experimental materials she had used in her pioneering artworks, but she continued to create prolifically until the end of her life.
A critic has observed that Saint Phalle's "insistence on exuberance, emotion and sensuality, her pursuit of the figurative and her bold use of color have not endeared her to everyone in a minimalist age".She was well known in Europe,[8] but her work was little-seen in the US, until her final years in San Diego. Another critic said: "The French-born, American-raised artist is one of the most significant female and feminist artists of the 20th century, and one of the few to receive recognition in the male-dominated art world during her lifetime"

World Environment Day 2014
Selecting to purchase a home in San Diego is a huge commitment, so you’ll wish to discover a neighborhood that fits your way of life.
That’s why we’re taking this chance to take a more detailed check out different areas throughout the city to aid you in tightening your search.
Mission Hills began as one man’s desired area and hasn’t lost its beauty.
Here are six factors Mission Hills can be the perfect area for you.
Right here’s a quick review of our list:
Factor 1 – Location, Location, Location
With views of Old Town, downtown, and San Diego Bay, what’s not to love about the area of Mission Hills?
A pamphlet written by the Inspiration Heights realty business back in 1907, developed to offer great single-home deals in the location, summed it up well:
” At your feet exists the Harbor, its mirror of amethyst held secure from the surges of the external sapphire sea by the enormous joint of Point Loma, as well as the lengthy low reaches of Coronado, whose gleaming line is worried by the stunning towers of the world-famed hotel … wanting to the west, you see initially, the little ‘Old Town’ of San Diego and also the community of Pacific Beach, after that Mission Bay separated by the ocean by a silvery hair versus which the breakers are constantly pounding and also foaming.”
A few features have contributed to this idealistic description in the century approximately, considering that it was created, but you obtain an idea of the suitable nature of the area.
According to Neighborhood Scout, most homeowners drive to work from this area north of downtown, but the average commute is a mere fifteen to thirty minutes. Public transport options are also offered.
Reason 2 – The Perfect Place for Architecture Lovers
Love home with a touch of background? Mission Hills is the area for you.
The Mission Hills neighborhood prides itself on a collection of properly maintained and meticulously brought back houses, which provide a thorough history of the location’s biggest names in style. More than 320 of these houses have been recognized as marked historic homes.
Hearkening back to its earliest growth phase, architectural masterpieces by very early 20th century designers consisting of William Hebbard, William Templeton Johnson, Emmor Brooke Weaver, Nathan Rigdon, Richard Requa, and Joel E. Brown are still standing.
If the mid-century layout is your favorite, residences created by popular engineers such as Lloyd Ruocco, Homer Delawie, John Lloyd Wright, and Sim Bruce Richards stay from the 1950s to the 1960s.
The area includes two historic districts, the Fort Stockton Line Historic District and the Mission Hills Historic District. Mission Hills Heritage is a regional organization that protects this distinct collection of cottage, Craftsman, grassy field institutions, Spanish revival, Mission rebirth, and Colonial rebirth homes.
Naturally, the making of a lovely community includes its landscaping. Also, Mission Hills flaunts its legend, Kate Sessions, with many debts with being accountable for the location’s starting, thanks to her vast baby room. Founded in 1910, a smaller version still leaves today, supplying the location with beautiful vegetation and a mug of coffee when you require a break from beautifying.
Factor 3 – Withstands The Ups and the Downs of The Market.
After the 2008 economic downturn, numerous customers were concerned about how well the value of their investment will hold up against volatile markets.
Boasting residences with a mean list price of $1.17 million and an average list price of 1.48 million, according to Redfin, it’s an easy-to-understand issue.
Using background as an overview is motivating for potential Mission Hills buyers. The location prospered throughout the 2008 downturn, and experts are certain this treasure of an area will certainly hold its value for a long time to come.
Reason 4 – Everything You Need Within Walking Distance
We’ve already stated the brief commute, but when you’re not at the office, everything you need is a walk away. Redfin gives the location a 70% walkability score.
Enterprise zone, including restaurants, watering holes, and various solutions, line West Washington Street from Hillcrest and Goldfinch Street. You’ll find several store stores and hair salons, too. Close-by Hillcrest brags supermarket, several dining establishments, and the museums, restaurants, and stores of Old Town are also within strolling range.
If it’s music you’re looking for, Mission Hills is home to among San Diego’s last independent song stores. Audiophiles can undergo the plastic, CD, and tape collections of M Theory Music, pay attention to a few examples, and even catch free online shows.
For all-natural beauty, take a walk with Pioneer Park, a community center with a haunted background.
Pioneer Park was once the house of Calvary Cemetery, among the oldest cemeteries in San Diego and the last house of greater than 4,000 early San Diego residents. While a few old headstones can be seen nearby, the bodies themselves weren’t disrupted when it was changed into the park in 1970.

Well those drifter's days are past me now
I've got so much more to think about
Deadlines and commitments
What to leave in, what to leave out
Against the wind
I'm still runnin' against the wind
I'm older now but still runnin' against the wind
Well I'm older now and still runnin'
Against the wind
Against the wind
Against the wind
Still runnin'

Coco Johnsen’s collections are designed downtown in her Los Angeles atelier, and then expertly produced in Brazil and Los Angeles utilizing only the finest fabric, trims, and materials.

GQ Mexico, WWD, Apparel News, Geniux, Femme, Game, Pacific , In touch Weekly to name a few.

John Edwards was born in Seneca, South Carolina and raised in Robbins, North Carolina, a small town in the Piedmont. There John learned the values of hard work and perseverance from his father, Wallace, who worked in the textile mills for 36 years, and from his mother, Bobbie, who ran a shop and worked at the post office. Working alongside his father at the mill, John developed his strong belief that all Americans deserve an equal opportunity to succeed and be heard.
A proud product of public schools, John became the first person in his family to attend college. He worked his way through North Carolina State University where he graduated with high honors in 1974, and then earned a law degree with honors in 1977 from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
For the next 20 years, John dedicated his career to representing families and children just like the families he grew up with in Robbins. Standing up against the powerful insurance industry and their armies of lawyers, John helped these families through the darkest moments of their lives to overcome tremendous challenges. His passionate advocacy for people like the folks who worked in the mill with his father earned him respect and recognition across the country.
In 1998, John took this commitment into politics to give a voice in the United States Senate to the people he had represented throughout his career. He ran for the Senate and won, defeating an incumbent Senator.
In Congress, Senator Edwards quickly emerged as a champion for the issues that make a difference to American families: quality health care, better schools, protecting civil liberties, preserving the environment, saving Social Security and Medicare, and reforming the ways campaigns are financed.
As a member of the Select Committee on Intelligence, Senator Edwards worked tirelessly for a strong national defense and to strengthen the security of our homeland. He authored key pieces of legislation on cyber, bio, and port security.
Senator Edwards brought a positive message of change to the 2004 presidential primaries. During the primary season he spoke about the two Americas that exist in our country today: one for people at the top who have everything they need and one for everybody else who struggle to get by. This powerful message resonated with voters all across America.
After the Democratic primaries, Senator John Kerry picked Senator Edwards to serve as his running mate in the 2004 general election, and Senator Edwards crisscrossed the country and campaigned tirelessly on Senator Kerry's behalf.
He is the former Director of the Center on Poverty, Work, and Opportunity at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
Senator Edwards and his wife, Elizabeth, whom he met when both were law students at Chapel Hill, were married in 1977. They have had four children, including: their eldest daughter, Catharine, who is attending law school; nine-year-old Emma Claire; and a seven-year-old son, Jack. Their first child, Wade, died in 1996.
