It was a lovely outdoor wedding at Luminarias Restaurant in Monterey Park, with a large wedding party; the groom had known these friends since elementary school!?! The couple asked to acknowledge a deceased best friend in the ceremony text. The best man cried many tears throughout the ceremony. Awesome!
Congratulations, Lupe and Ke! Not only was this Laotian - Mexican couple a dream to work with (and beautiful to look at, see below), they had hired some of the best vendors i have had the privilege of working with.
i felt i had to mention: Frank the photographer was approachable and down-to-earth, while still being professional and extremely attentive to the goings-on...plus, he is obviously an artist, but has a sense of humour. Believe it or not, not all photogs possess these qualities.

These days, many many people are starting their own online blogs. Sometimes it's just a life journal. Sometimes it is a way to keep in contact with friends/family. And sometimes, the journal is about something more specific- political blogs, food blogs, scrapbooking blogs, some interest or goal of the blogger.
I don't know how things work with livejournal, but with blogspot and wordpress, you can add a title graphic. Sure, you can find many gorgeous layouts on the internet, that people have created. But the crown piece, the first thing the blogger sees- is the title. Many blogs just have some blocky text declaring their title.
Well, more and more people want something personalized, something custom, something... more interesting.
I've recently gotten a start on creating blog title graphics for people. My own, you can see, is not overly complicated. And yet, it is much nicer than a blocky "Save the Date Originals".

We have two big crazy Labradors who we love to death, and who we take to the dog park every Saturday so they can run around and swim with other big crazy dogs until they pass out from exhaustion. Saturday morning at the dog park is the best part of the week! We chose Red Bud Isle dog park for our engagement pictures because it's one of our favorite places in Austin and because it is absolutely gorgeous.
Look how pretty it is!
But then came the predicament:
Do we include our dogs in the pictures? "Awww they'd be so cute"
Can we go to the dog park and not take our dogs? "That just doesn't seem fair to the dogs"
Will they sit still for cute pictures with them? "Nope, they've got wiggly puppy energy"
Will they jump up on us when we're trying to take pictures without them? "You betcha"
Our photographer was game for seeing how it went with the dogs, and just leaving them out if they weren't sitting peacefully for the camera. About 30 seconds after we got there, BOOM the dogs were in the water...
Smells like wet dog.
Since we had some drenched puppies on our hands, we decided it would be better to leave the dogs out of the pictures. Somehow the dogs didn't get that memo.
"Oh I'm sorry, were you trying to take a picture?"
After the pups had been for their morning swim, they decided we weren't paying enough attention to them. Well, we were trying to focus more on the nice lady taking our pictures.
"Play with me! Play with me!"
Thanks to the wet paws, jumping, and clamoring for our attention, most of our pictures have two features: wet jeans and dirty jeans.
Our lovely (and patient!) photographer also commented that she was constantly playing "where's the puppy butt", trying to keep the dogs out of the pictures. If you look carefully, you'll see some mysterious white lumps in the backgrounds.
Even with all the dog chaos, I think our engagement photos turned out beautiful BECAUSE we brought the pups with us. Most of the best pictures are of us laughing about the dogs' antics. They made us relax and natural in front of the camera because they make us happy ... and because we were more focused on preventing them from jumping on the photographer than on putting on a stiff smile for the camera. Looking at our engagement pictures reminds me of what our regular life looks like every day at home.

Title: Roller Coaster Crash In Edmonton Canada - 3 People Killed On Mindbender (1986)
West Edmonton Mall, Fantasyland indoor amusement park. (Now named Galaxyland.)
On the evening of June 14, 1986, after the yellow train (train #1) completed the second inverted loop, it encountered one of three areas of uplift before the third and final loop. Missing bolts on the left inside wheel assembly of the last car of the four car train caused the bogey assembly to disengage the track with a full load of riders. This caused the final car to fishtail wildly, disengaging the lap bars as it collided with support structures, thereby throwing off passengers and losing speed. The train entered the third and final inverted loop, but did not have the speed to complete the loop. The train stalled at the top, then slid backwards, crashing into a concrete pillar. Three people, David Sager, 24, Tony Mandrusiak, 24, and Cindy Simms, 21, were killed during the accident and a fourth man was severely injured and nearly killed.
At the time of the accident the park was packed with people who were attending a concert. The ride had shut down twice, as the operator had heard a metallic noise from the train prior to the accident. Despite running the trains empty, the source of the problem could not be located by the maintenance staff, and the regular operation of the ride resumed until the accident occurred. With the stage located atop the jumping fountains, many had a horrific view as the band played and the coaster derailed. The Mindbender was immediately closed. An investigation and inquiry was launched that revealed that there were problems in the translation from German to English of operational and maintenance information from Schwarzkopf, the German coaster manufacturer. Additional issues with quality control were found as a result of the manufacturer going bankrupt during delivery of the ride, and portions of the ride being finished by the receiver of the firm.
When the Mindbender reopened seven months later, the trains were redesigned. Existing four car trains were converted to 3 car trains, each have four bogeys on two axles (front and rear). Anti-roll back "dogs" were added to prevent the train from rolling backwards during the initial lift. Seating capacity was reduced from 16 to 12 per train. The lap bar restraint was retained, but seat belts and a shoulder headrest were added for redundancy. The design of the vertical axle was changed so that the axle became a fixed part of the bogey, and the retaining bolt was moved to the top of the axle, where it is easily inspected. Finally, maintenance checks and scheduled maintenance downtimes were significantly increased. In the twenty-three years since the accident, the Mindbender has had an excellent safety record.
Prior to the accident, the Mindbender had two yellow, two red, and two blue trains. After the accident, the original trains were sent to Germany for rebuild into the trains in use today. However they returned only in red and blue colors, to ease the public perception of yellow trains which were featured in the media post-crash. Recently, the trains were repainted, and yellow color has returned.
After the government inquiry, the damaged yellow train #1 was returned to the mall, along with other materials seized during the inquiry. The first three cars of train #1 were stored in the basement of the mall until later disposed of. The fourth car which derailed, was cut up by welders torch into small burned unrecognizable bits and disposed of. Train #1 was not reused, but occasionally scratches in the paint of the current vehicles, might reveal the identity of train #2, the second original yellow train.
As part of the super-fun activity kit that will be passed out to all the kiddos at the reception, I made a little activity book to keep them busy. I tried not to spend too much time on this project, since I have so many other projects left before the wedding! I searched for "wedding coloring book", "wedding clip art", and "love maze" to put together the coloring and maze pages. I used Discovery Education's puzzle maker to put together the wedding word search. I'm including golf pencils and crayons in their activity pack to use with the book.

This ceremony took place at one of my favourite venues in Orange County: SEVEN DEGREES. Any time a proposal story is unusual and fun, it can be included in the text and told as part of the ceremony:
"The proposal was an interesting experience. Jeanie and Eric had been together for over three years, when they decided to take a trip to Hong Kong for Jeanie’s birthday. Prior to this, they had discussed the issue of marriage, but never really went into detail about it.
In Hong Kong, they eventually ended up in a jewelry store as part of a city tour. A sales associate began showing them rings, and dropping hints to Eric about how he should be looking for one. Eric appeared uninterested. Jeanie, being the beautiful emotional person she is, left the store in tears, feeling hurt and thinking Eric didn't want to ever consider marriage. Meanwhile, Eric chased Jeanie around the streets of Hong Kong, and then they finally returned to the hotel. As Jeanie sobbed about how Eric didn't want to marry her, he pulled out a ring from his suitcase and said, “I was going to wait until your birthday tomorrow to ask you, but now that you're going to be like this, I guess I'll ask you now.” He had already asked Jeanie’s mother for permission, and so he got down on one knee and proposed!"
The bride wore a beautiful antique lace dress, and there were seven bridesmaids and seven groomsmen. The groom is the guitar player in the local band PLASTIC PILL. Appropriately enough, the groom cake was in the shape of a sunburst Les Paul guitar! The Seven Degrees staff was first-rate, led by wedding director/coordinator Alyssa (Alissa?). Photography by Nicole Caldwell.

Title: Sejayno | "Mazdaznan"
∆Sejayno∆
"Mazdaznan" ft. Ayako Kataoka.
Sejayno is Peter B, Carson Garhart, Severiano Martinez.
Mazdaznan is a syncretistic religious health movement based on Zoroastrian and Christian ideas with special focus on breathing exercises, vegetarian diet and body culture. It was founded at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century by Otoman Zar-Adusht Ha'nish, born Otto Hanisch. The word Mazdaznan derives from the Persian "Mazda" and "Znan", and is supposed to mean "master thought".
The Mazda car corporation coincides with the anglicized pronunciation of the founder's name, Jujiro Matsuda, who was interested in spirituality, and chose to rename the firm in honor of both his family and Zoroastrianism. The word Mazda derives from Ahura Mazda, the Avestan language name for a divinity exalted by the ancient Iranian prophet Zoroaster, as the source of wisdom, intelligence and harmony.

Title: Bach Prelude BWV 1006a on Baroque Lute
Sydney lute student Oskar de Mari-Jones plays the prelude from Bach's Partita BWV 1006a. Apologies for the poor sound quality - most of the nuance and dynamics are poorly represented. Perhaps a better quality video to follow?
The partita exists in a doube-stave score in Bach's hand, with a title page in another hand. The score and key of E major suggest a keyboard piece, but the simplicity of the texture and bass line suggest a lute piece or at least a keyboard piece in imitation of the lute. The mere fact that it works well on lute however, would have been enough for an 18th century lutenist (as we can see from bwv 997, 1000). My transcription definitely favors a natural sonority and ease of play over absolute fidelity to the score - as did 18th century lutenists when they transcribed Bach's works (see 995, 997, 1000). That said, when playing on the lute, one can at least get all the notes, which is a joy after reading this piece for so long on guitar. When Approaching the dance movements however, I try to keep to Bach's original voicing (which is very light, close-textured, and avoids low basses - these are characteristics of French Lute music and in my opinion this is no coincidence).
Comments welcome.
