Tips And Ideas For Creating A Memorable Panama Beach Wedding

Many of us have daydreamed about the day when we will walk down the isle ever since childhood, right down to the gown we will wear, what our hair will look like, and the colors in our bouquet. Planning your wedding, although tremendously exciting, can often feel overwhelming without some sort of guidance.

When someone gives you a gift for your Panama wedding, even if you say "thank you" to them personally, always send a card in the mail thanking them for the gift. In this modern world of technology we often think that social media sites or text messages suffice for a thank you from a wedding. This simply is not true and it is tacky to not send thank you cards for wedding presents.

A good thing for the bride to keep in mind is that you want to make sure that to have an emergency makeup kit on hand for your special day. This is helpful in case of last minute situations that might cause your makeup to get messed up.

Prioritize your wedding budget. Decide what you must have and what you can skimp on. If you have your heart set on a certain location take it, but realize that you are going to spend less on everything else. Deciding what means the most to you allows you to stay within budget and get what you really want.

When taking dance lessons for your first dance, do not get fixated on learning a routine. It may be tempting at first, but when you will actually get out on the dance floor you will be counting steps which will in turn make you look a bit robotic. So try to learn how to lead and follow instead.

Avoid financial miscommunication by openly discussing your Panama City Beach wedding budget with your parents as soon as possible. Talk with each set of parents separately and discuss what they feel comfortable contributing. Often times they will elect to pay for a specific aspect of the Panama beach wedding rather than a set dollar amount.

Consider having an early wedding and turning your reception into a brunch. If you need to save money, one area that you can trim from is the meal. Dinner tends to be very expensive, so moving the reception to earlier in the day will save you money; you will also have the rest of the day to spend alone as a couple.

Planning for your big day does not have to feel overwhelming, by listening to advice and suggestions of those who have gone before you, you can organize the day of your dreams with a minimum of stress and anxiety. You might even find that you enjoy planning for your Panama Beach wedding almost as much as the big event itself!

Kids have Tidewater Striders' New Energy to stay in shape

By Lia Russell
Virginian-Pilot correspondent
? January 3, 2012

Travis Redmond loves to run so much that his mom cracks jokes about it.

?I think he started running in my womb,? Debbie Redmond says.

?Even as a very young child, he would come home from school and literally run laps around the house.?

Now Redmond, 13, of Virginia Beach is one of about 150 boys and girls who run with the Tidewater Striders? New Energy youth program. Young runners are coached and mentored by experienced members of the 2,000-strong Tidewater Striders running club, one of the largest and most active in the nation, according to Angelo Celesia, who runs the youth program.

New Energy has been around Virginia Beach for nearly three decades, and two years ago it expanded to Suffolk. This year, it reached Norfolk, inspiring more Hampton Roads children to don their sneakers and hit the pavement.

The program also recently caught the attention of the Road Runners Club of America, a national association of running clubs. It gave the youth program an $800 Kids Run the Nation grant to help publicize and expand its reach.

Last year, New Energy also received a $4,500 grant from the Obici Healthcare Foundation, whose mission is to improve health and wellness by promoting programs that prevent illness and disease.

Dan Edwards, a Tidewater Strider for 21 years and chairman of its Youth Committee, is also chairman of the RRCA?s board of directors. He wrote the Kids Run the Nation grant for New Energy and is one of the program?s greatest advocates.

?Running is such a simple, low-cost sport in which to participate,? Edwards said. ?All you need is a decent pair of shoes, and you?re ready to do it. You don?t need equipment or a team.?

Edwards said running is an excellent family activity ? promoting positive values and a healthy lifestyle.

?It?s probably the most effective aerobic activity, which is tremendously healthy and something that we as a community and a nation need more of considering the issues we have with weight and obesity,? he said.

New Energy is coached by dozens of volunteers who train the young athletes twice weekly for one hour. There is no cost to participants; the young members simply join the Striders for an annual membership fee of $10.

?We appeal to a wide variety of young runners ? kids who have never run before to very elite runners,? Celesia said.

?Some just do it for fun, and some are very focused on competition. They get to decide what they want to do and how hard they want to work.?

Runners, ages 6 to 16, are assigned to groups based on their age, ability and interest.

Travis Redmond, who enjoys long-distance running, said it has helped him excel in other sports in which he participates.

?I?ve got more endurance in baseball and am much faster at basketball,? said Travis, who attends Kemps Landing Magnet School.

His brother, Patrick, 11, a fifth-grader at Old Donation Center in Virginia Beach, started running in second grade. Like Travis, he enjoys the personal challenge that running offers.

Both boys said they have made friends with other young runners by working out with New Energy.

?You can hang out with your friends and before the running starts, you can talk to them and then start running and have fun together,? Patrick said.

?Some of my best friends, I made through New Energy,? Travis added.

Their mother manages the Virginia Beach New Energy team and said she has been impressed by the adult support for the program.

?Even though it is competitive, there is a really positive, supportive environment,? she said. ?I hate to say that it?s not like that with other sports, but I have seen a difference.?

Celesia said the adults often train with the children.

?Our goal is to get out there with our young runners and show them the path to lifelong fitness,? he said. ?When they see us old guys in their 60s running, we don?t need to teach them the results of staying active ? they can see it.?

NASA starts off new year with mission to the moon (AP)

LOS ANGELES ? The cruise to the moon took 3 1/2 months and covered 2 1/2 million miles ? far longer than the direct three-day flight by Apollo astronauts.

Over the New Year's weekend, a pair of NASA spacecraft arrived back-to-back at their destination in the first mission devoted to studying lunar gravity.

Mission controllers at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory did not toast champagne ? there's a no alcohol policy on campus ? but several belatedly heralded the new year by with noisemakers.

"We can start celebrating the new year now," project manager David Lehman said Sunday after attending a post-mission fete where cake and sparkling cider were served.

The tricky arrivals occurred 24 hours apart. The drama unfolded on New Year's Eve when Grail-A flew over the south pole, fired its engine and dropped into lunar orbit. Its twin Grail-B repeated the maneuvers on New Year's Day.

Cheers and applause filled mission control when each probe signaled it was healthy and circling the moon.

"Everything worked much better than I hoped," Lehman said.

The moon has long been an object of fascination. Galileo spotted mountains and craters when he peered at it through a telescope. Poets and songwriters looked to the moon as a muse.

Since the late 1950s, more than 100 missions launched by the United States, Soviet Union, Japan, China and India have targeted Earth's companion. NASA flew six Apollo missions that landed twelve men on the lunar surface and brought back more than 800 pounds of rock and soil samples.

Despite all the visits, the moon remains mysterious. Mission chief scientist Maria Zuber of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology said researchers know more about Mars, which is farther away from the Earth, than the moon.

One of the enduring puzzles is its lopsided shape with the far side more hilly than the side that always faces Earth. Research published earlier this year suggested that our planet once had two moons that crashed early in the solar system's history and created the moon that hangs in the sky today.

Scientists expect to learn more about how the celestial body formed using Grail's gravity measurements that will indicate what's below the surface.

Since the washing machine-size Grail probes ? short for Gravity Recovery And Interior Laboratory ? were squeezed on a small rocket to save on costs, it lengthened the trip and took them 30 times longer to reach the moon than the Apollo astronauts.

Previous spacecraft have attempted to study the moon's gravity ? about one-sixth Earth's pull ? with mixed success. Grail was expected to give scientists the most detailed maps of the moon's uneven gravitational field and insight into its interior down to the core.

Data collection won't begin until March after the near-identical spacecraft refine their positions and are circling just 34 miles above the surface. While scientists focus on gravity, middle school students will get the chance to take their own pictures of the moon using cameras aboard the probes as part of a project headed by Sally Ride, the first American woman in space.

There's already chatter about trying to extend the $496 million mission, which was slated to end before the partial lunar eclipse in June. Scientists initially did not think the solar-powered probes would survive that long, but changed their minds during the long cruise to the moon after getting new data.

Researchers expect Grail to return a plethora of data, but that information won't be a guide to manned lunar trips anytime soon. The Obama administration last year scrapped a plan to return astronauts to the lunar surface in favor of landing on an asteroid as a stepping stone to Mars.
