I haven't acted in a film but I have been on a tv show so I used that to find my Bacon Number. Me > University Challenge > Amol Rajan (who is findable on Oracle of Bacon) > Bob Igor: Making the Mouse Roar > Robert A. Igor > The Wonderful World of Disney: Magical Holiday Special > Meghan Trainor > Sesame Street's 50th Anniversary Celebration > Whoopie Goldberg Destination Anywhere > Kevin Bacon, giving me a Bacon number of *5 edit cause I can't count originally 4.

Edit: I have just seen that if you expand Oracle of Bacon to TV shows for more than just myself I have a Bacon number of 3: Me > University Challenge > Amol Rajan > Doctor Who (2024) s01e04 > Vee Vimomal > Where the Truth Lies > Kevin Bacon. However I dislike this because this episode of Doctor Who credits Rajan as 'archival footage' which makes me think in the set they had Uni Challenge playing in the background of a scene.

a while back I saw a version of this poll made by someone who didn't understand what "bacon number" means so let's do a real one. for science

I'm mostly on the expiration dates are real side, but I got some wiggle room. I mean, they're a guideline really! But then there are things my husband will eat/use and I'm like noooo thanks, have fun dying.... . . . . #iminthemiddle #undecided #dontdoit #gross #manthing #nothankyou #yyj #funny #relationships #marriage #relationshiphumour #lifehumour #westcoastmom #vancouverisland #vancouverislandmoms #victoria #Victoriamoms #Victoriabc #vilife #vimoms #canadian #canada #canadianmoms https://www.instagram.com/p/B15dtNTgDhf/?igshid=1kcd3jn537jy6

Ball corporation podržava Yugen u lansiranju prve kombuhe u limenci u Evropi

Beograd, 13. avgust 2019. - Belgijska preduzetnička firma Yugen udružila se sa vodećim svetskim proizvođačem limenki za piće, kompanijom Ball Corporation, i lansirala prvu kombuhu u posebno dizajniranoj limenci na evropskom tržištu. Pakovana u aluminijumske limenke koje se u potpunosti mogu reciklirati, Yugen Kombucha je namenjena potrošačima koji vode računa o zdravlju i žele organski proizvod visokog kvaliteta u praktičnoj, nosivoj ambalaži.

Yugen Kombuha je dostupna u tri zavodljiva ukusa, a svaki se odlikuje posebnim izgledom limenke. Specifičan dizajn predstavlja umetnikovu viziju drevne japanske reči „Yugen” – koja se koristi da opiše osećaj divljenja prema lepoti prirode. Napitak se trenutno prodaje u Belgiji, a ovaj ambiciozni brend se širi i na druge delove Evrope, kao što su Nemačka, Holandija, Francuska i Skandinavija.

 Fermentirani čajni napitak kombuha, bogat je probioticima, zdravim kiselinama i antioksidansima, zahvaljujući čemu daje dodatnu vrednost raznovrsnoj punudi napitaka. Kombuha je  funkcionalni napitak sa najvećom stopom rasta u toj kategoriji i već je izuzetno popularan u SAD. Nagli rast ove kategorije potvrđuje i broj novih kombuha napitaka u Evropi, koji je u prvoj polovini 2019. već premašio celu prošlu godinu[1].

Svaka limenka nepasterizovanog napitka Yugen Kombuha sadrži korisno lekovito bilje pomešano sa čistim organskim sokom. Limenka obezbeđuje kompletnu zaštitu milijardama korisnih organizama u Yugenu, pa je predstavljala savršen izbor za Krisa De Bekera, suosnivača i brend menadžera firme YugenKombucha.

„Limenke su izvanredne. Ne samo da štite naš proizvod, već su i ekološke, jer predstavljaju ambalažu za napitke koja se najviše reciklira na svetu. Limenke su lagane i nesalomive, pogodne su za nošenje na plažu, planinu, festivale i sportske događaje. Pored toga, maloprodajni sektor se sve više okreće napicima u limenkama. Menjaju raspored na svojim prodajnim mestima kako bi se prilagodili zahtevima današnjih kupaca, brzini i mobilnosti.”  

 „Saradnja sa Yugenom na ovim limenkama je bila odlična”, dodaje Matijs Jansen, direktor prodaje za zemlje Beneluksa u kompaniji Ball Beverage Packaging Europe. „Blisko sarađujući sa njihovim dizajnerom Vimom Vanderslejenom, napravili smo limenke na koje smo svi ponosni. Drago nam je što smo podrška Yugen-u u lansiranju prve kombuhe u Evropi u posebno dizajniranoj limenci.”

 Yugen se dobija originalnim procesom fermentacije u najsavremenijoj fabrici i spreman je za osvajanje Belgije i drugih zemalja. Od svake prodate limenke Yugen će izdvojiti dva centa za Yugen fondaciju koja podržava socijalne i održive projekte.

September 11, 2013, Owen received the diagnosis of Optic Nerve Hypoplasia and Septo-Optic Dysplasia. Diagnosis dates are hard, yearly reminders to families who have children with a disability. They are reminders that your child is different...then you're reminded again that being different is more than okay; One of the reasons? Because there are people like Ms. Shirley who come into your life BECAUSE of this difference. People like Ms. Shirley never leave even when their "job" is over, or judge when your child is stimming, or send "thoughts and prayers" when shit hits the fan. They are dedicated, patient, and full of real advice. So, instead of wallowing in the pity of mom-guilt this day, I have reflected silently about each professional person who has made this journey easier. Ms. Shirley just takes the cake. #OpticNerveHypoplasia #SeptoOpticDysplasia #VisuallyImpaired #VIMom #disABILITY #DiagnosisDate #Braille #TeacherOfTheVisuallyImpaired https://www.instagram.com/p/CFBUmHkHunzdctEYIQcvyM4WRNH_LvkQyAuCec0/?igshid=1m34urp8snegb

First day of camp! Love that excited face. Thank you @shinealightnc for offering an inclusive place for kids! I have been hesitant to send him to camp because of his visual impairment but after having a real conversation with Jessica from Wake Harvest, I felt so much relief knowing that he would be welcome and accommodated! I hope he has a great day…my not so little boy. Photo description: Owen standing in front of the summer camp building. He’s wearing a green Minecraft shirt and navy shorts.

Owen had his annual opthalmology appointment today! Not life changing news, but he was able to see the letters on the screen at 400 at 18 feet as opposed to last year seeing them at 15 feet. Basically what this means is that someone who sees 20/400 can see at 20 feet what those with normal vision can see at 400 feet. Although this is in a controlled environment this "test" has consistently shown improvement, despite zero changes to his optic nerves. He answered most of the questions himself and spoke about his sisters who he said he loved very much. He even got his math work done on the way there! Great job O! Picture descriptions: 1. Owen in his carseat holding iPad and smiling. 2-5.

Late post but wanted to share that Owen made his lunch today all by himself. I guided him through the steps, stayed patient (👀) and am really proud of him. His response to making his lunch was that "one of his dreams come true..."🌟 · · Picture description: a collage of 3 pictures showing Owen making lunch (a sandwich) and 1 picture of him sitting at table smiling. #OpticNerveHypoplasia #SeptoOpticDysplasia #VIMom #disABILITY #Son #LunchTime (at Benson, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CK0QmZpHxk2dB7IPs1e4HhaeLSsBaT1TECkJkU0/?igshid=u238br4rgxvy

Owen helped make his own breakfast this morning.

These are just some of the professional pictures taken by @akiramedia from July 8 and July 9 at the @indojaxsurf camp in @wrightsvillenc. I can't get over how great they are.

This past week has been just super cool! We spent Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at our favorite beach (@wrightsvillenc) and watched Owen experience the ocean in one of the most awesome ways with @indojaxsurf camp. Unfortunately the surf camp was cancelled Tuesday, but Wednesday and Thursday made up for it. His excitement and willingness to get out there and try his best made us so proud. He had a great and patient instructor named Will who can be seen in the photos. The reward of it all was hearing him say to me as we left the beach Thursday that HE was so proud of HIMSELF. · · · Thank you everyone who donated, shared, watched and cheered Owen on!

At bedtime each kid gets a story. Sometimes they’re long, sometimes they’re short (like more than sometimes), and sometimes they become reality! At bedtime tonight I laid with Owen and said “Once upon a time there was a little boy who had a blue bag and in the blue bag was something cool (Richard enters with blue bag). The little boy opened the blue bag and pulled out the items inside. What are the items inside? The little boy wondered?” So outside of the bedtime story the little boy aka Owen, a bit confused said hey that’s my name and my name in Braille... am I going to a Braille thing? We said nope! Those are rash guards and you wear them to the beach when you surf! So Owen says oh cool! Or to the pool or the lake? We said sure but THESE are special for the beach to surf. And he proceeds to talk about the pool and the lake again 😂. So we broke it to him straight! We said thanks to mommy and daddy we registered you and donated so you can attend a surf camp for the visually impaired this week! (Insert big smile!) Thanks to Papa for using his hotel rewards for us to stay! Thanks to a lot of other wonderful people who donated and shared, you and other VI kids can enjoy this experience! Thanks to Ms. Courtney for making you some awesome rash guards! • • He is SO excited! Indo Jax Surf Camp we will see you Tuesday! #IndoJaxSurfCamp #IndoJaxSurfCharity #OpticNerveHypoplasia #SeptoOpticDysplasia #VIMom #VisualImpairment #disABILITY #Experiences #Surfing #WrightsvilleBeachNC #ItTakesAVillage 📸: @richardp0615 Customized rash guards: @sprucedupbyceh (at Benson, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCSLs8tnbcCikWefSfTcSsYNNfBQBd7NnHAO2s0/?igshid=1hm49pnsdggg9

I’m getting really excited about the @indojaxsurf Charity Visually Impaired Surf Camp which is just two weeks away! I received the welcome packet today via email with all the information for the three days! I haven’t told Owen yet - any ideas on a good surprise!? •• I really want to thank everyone who has donated to this charity! If you would still like to donate, the link is in my bio (for Instagram) and will be in this post for Facebook! •• #IndoJaxSurfCharities #IndoJaxSurfCamp #VisuallyImpaired #VIMom #disABILITY #OpticNerveHypoplasia #SeptoOpticDysplasia #Surfing #Ocean #WrightsvilleBeach #WrightsvilleBeachNC https://www.instagram.com/p/CByVRJ1AMj0beo-KTNr91Bmz914eGazyJh1ztk0/?igshid=1fycgv8pxla9c

Mommy and Owen’s workspace today. Working hard to stay on top of learning to write and read Braille. We are really lucky to have so many resources at our fingertips (literally). •• Picture description: The dining room table turned into workspace for distance learning/virtual learning due to COVID-19. There is a Perkins Smart Brailler, a laptop for his TVI to meet with him on Google Hangout, an iPad Mini with Google Classroom, and Mommy’s iPad Air and Bluetooth keyboard to take notes...and most importantly coffee. •• #BrailleWriter #PerkinsSmartBrailler #Laptop #DistanceLearning #VirtualLearning #iPadMini #iPadAir #Coffee #Yeti #VIResources #TVI #OpticNerveHypoplsia #SeptoOpticDysplasia #VIMom (at Benson, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAayZZjnZm-iNurl4geESsvnhAa88UyCgmtQKs0/?igshid=4grk9bkip7k8

An important message from a mom of a kid with a visual impairment: be limitless! Yes, I said don’t hold your child back. It’s really easy to shelter them due to your own fears and prevent them from hating (or liking) something. Believe me, I had my moments; probably always will, but it’s always been my own fear of him getting hurt, being rejected, or hating it due to his visual impairment. Owen loves riding his #RazorScooter. He falls, crashes and gets scraps, but always gets back up and keeps going. I don’t even cringe anymore when he flys down the driveway and wobbles into the road (go me!) • Realistically I know that Owen can do certain things because he does have some usable vision in his left eye. For someone who doesn’t know Owen it may seem like he’s just your normally developing ALMOST seven year old - which brings me back to beginning sentence: would you place limits on YOUR child? #opticnervehypoplasia #septoopticdysplasia #visualimpairment #disABILITY #VIMom #BoyMom #bellhelmets #HighSockSwag #Limitless #NoLimits #NoFear @richardp0615 @razorworldwide (at Benson, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/B--iPEtHzCxr8UXY8iMiFwgn8eiOBGDXJy8mwE0/?igshid=1kj1aibew3o1

Owen's using the laptop for one of the tasks given by Ms. Gina, his TVI (teacher of the visually impaired). It's a fully accessible website/app called Accessibyte designed for Blind and Visually Impaired users. There's a bunch of different applications within the website/app; for users of all levels and includes clear audio, high contrast for users with low/some vision, and functions using the keyboard. Owen and I played Hangman, Samurai and Canteen today. @accessibyte #OpticNerveHypoplasia #SeptoOpticDysplasia #VisuallyImpaired #VIMom #disABILITY #Accessibility #Technology #Quarantine #LearningAtHome #LowVision #Accessibyte #TVI (at Benson, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-hj2QinothDgPMoGz6uAISqW5ESYP9LLJ8jfo0/?igshid=p4sx9w775xeg
