Step 1: Slice Baguette into 1/4 inch pieces. Butter each side of the bread. Place in skillet over medium heat. Toast until golden brown, then turn and toast the other side. This takes about ten minutes.
Step 2: Turn off the heat and place a square of chocolate (dark, white or whatever you like) on each baguette slice.
Leave the bread in the skillet. Cover with a lid and let sit for 5 minutes to let the chocolate melt.
When the chocolate becomes soft. Take a small knife and spread it over the bread.
Step 3: Move bruschetta slices to platter, and cover with strawberries or raspberries. Sprinkle with sliced almonds and fresh lavender blossoms.
That's it! It's ready to bring to the table. My kind of dessert:
Elegant, easy and exotic. Enjoy!

Indiana, 1818. Moonlight falls through the dense woods that surround a one-room cabin, where a nine-year-old Abraham Lincoln kneels at his suffering mother's bedside. She's been stricken with something the old-timers call "Milk Sickness."
"My baby boy…" she whispers before dying.
Only later will the grieving Abe learn that his mother's fatal affliction was actually the work of a vampire.
When the truth becomes known to young Lincoln, he writes in his journal, "henceforth my life shall be one of rigorous study and devotion. I shall become a master of mind and body. And this mastery shall have but one purpose…" Gifted with his legendary height, strength, and skill with an ax, Abe sets out on a path of vengeance that will lead him all the way to the White House.
While Abraham Lincoln is widely lauded for saving a Union and freeing millions of slaves, his valiant fight against the forces of the undead has remained in the shadows for hundreds of years. That is, until Seth Grahame-Smith stumbled upon The Secret Journal of Abraham Lincoln, and became the first living person to lay eyes on it in more than 140 years.
Using the journal as his guide and writing in the grand biographical style of Doris Kearns Goodwin and David McCullough, Seth has reconstructed the true life story of our greatest president for the first time-all while revealing the hidden history behind the Civil War and uncovering the role vampires played in the birth, growth, and near-death of our nation.
My Thoughts:
I did see this movie when it came out and I thought it was okay. I don't know how I got this book, but because my book club members had not read it yet, this was my pick for January. I don't like history. I don't usually enjoy historical fiction. This was written just like a historical biography. I am not a fan of historical biographies. I really only like memoirs. The concept of this book is really intriguing. I mean Abe Lincoln, hunting vamps with an axe.
Pretty epic. The Photoshop photos were well done. They were pretty funny, I did end up googling some facts about Abe Lincoln to see if any of the book was true. So I guess in a weird way the book made me slightly smarter? Although I didn't like the book and there is no way I would read it again. I did read the entire thing, and normally I DNF books pretty quickly. It was interesting enough to read the entire book.

Remember back in June when the University of Texas was about to join a Pac-16 super conference along with Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas Tech, Colorado and Utah?
Texas backed out at the last minute, staying in the Big 12. Colorado was already committed to the Pac-10 and Utah would join later, but the vision of creating a West Coast version of the Southeastern Conference was dead because the Longhorns said so.
Wednesday, it became apparent why Texas stayed in the Big 12.
The university has reached a 20-year, $300 million deal with ESPN to create a 24-hour network devoted to Longhorns athletics. You can have your Big Ten Network and, in the future, your Pac-12 network. Texas gets an entire channel all to itself. And it's run by the self-proclaimed Worldwide Leader in Sports.
The agreement includes IMG College, which handles marketing and licensing for Texas.
According to the Austin American-Statesman, ESPN has guaranteed 82.5 percent of the contract, or $247.5 million, for the university. IMG is promised 17.5 percent, or $52.5 million.
Texas was considering the move to the Pac-16 to boost its television revenue. Instead, it stayed in the Big 12 for even more television revenue. While a Pac-16 was attractive, the rivalries of the Big 12 and its contract with ESPN-ABC and Fox, along with the additional revenue of the Texas-only network, are more lucrative.
The Pac-10 Network doesn't exist yet and might not for a few years.
The Longhorns are double dipping, and they are doing it right away.
On its face, this is a good deal for all involved. The university gets a new revenue stream at a time when pretty much every school in America needs one. ESPN gets some exclusive content, and the network can spend its money however it wants.
But the underbelly of this thing is not as pretty.
First, there's the journalistic question. Nobody pretends ESPN is the most objective news outlet in the land, but how can it report objectively and accurately on an institution with which it has such a cozy financial relationship?
What if one of ESPN's reporters gets word that the entire Longhorns football team is being paid by boosters? Will that story see the light of day?
"We'll have to work to have an even playing field on the news side, and will," university President William Powers Jr. told the American-Statesman. A nice sentiment, but wait until the first sensitive story to see if it's true.
Second, where does this leave every other major university in America? Before this, schools reaped the benefits of major network sports deals and shared the revenue. The Big Ten took even greater control with its own network, but it has a limited audience. Still, other conferences are eager to follow suit.
Now, major programs such as Ohio State, Michigan, USC and most of the SEC will wonder where their ESPN deal is. If the BCS is criticized for discriminating against the little guys, what will these potential one-school networks – and the accompanying revenue – do to what's already not a level playing field?
And finally, how does this deal affect the athletes? There's a growing sentiment that players in revenue-producing sports should see some of the action.
According to the American-Statesman, Texas will receive $14-15 million of the Big 12 broadcast revenue for the 2010-11 academic year. Next year, Colorado and Nebraska will be gone and Texas' share will grow to $20 million.
If Texas is pulling an additional $12 million or so a year from ESPN's broadcast of basketball and football, among other sports, it will only strengthen the argument that major programs are making a killing off athletes who are essentially working for free.
Then again, if Texas did start paying its players, would ESPN blow the whistle?

Growth Trends for Related Jobs
Change-oriented leadership is flexible and ready to make adjustments that are called for—whether that be by employees, bosses, crises or new market demand. However, too many changes at once, without regard for a company's goals, can be disadvantageous. Leaders should be flexible, but make changes only with much thought for the impact those changes will have on the group.
You may have noticed that certain companies or groups seem to be on the cutting edge in the services and products they offer, or the activities in which they participate. Chances are, these groups are led by change-oriented leadership. A leader who is change-oriented is one who is not set in his ways; instead, he challenges the status quo, investigating what new goals the group can try to reach and coming up with innovative ways to reach those goals. A change-oriented leader is also one who is ready to adapt the group's way of doing things at any given time, in response to market demand, employee feedback, or an emergency or crisis situation.
There are many advantages to change-oriented leadership. A group led by a flexible leader does well with crisis management. Whether a natural disaster occurs, or there is unexpected violence in the workplace, a change-oriented leader responds to the unexpected happenings in step, and implements necessary measures to deal with the crisis. Another advantage of change-oriented leadership is that these leaders respond well to valuable input from workers or members of a group. If employees or members of a group see an area where change would advance their productivity, a change-oriented leader is ready to try a new way of doing things. Finally, change-oriented leadership is always ready to adjust focus to meet new demands, such as for a new product or service.
When leaders are making frequent changes in policy and practice, employees can get confused. If there is not frequent clarification of new goals and ways of doing things, members of the group can become frustrated and disillusioned by too many changes. Also, because a group's goals are often intertwined, the decision to make a change in one area to improve the chances of meeting one particular goal might undermine the achievement of another goal. Being change-oriented demands that a leader be well tuned in to all the goals of her company, so that she can be wise about changes and understand their implications before making them.
As a leader, it is important to be change-oriented. Societal changes, preferences of members of the group, and new information based on increased knowledge all demand that a good leader must be willing to learn and to change. At the same time, a good leader should make sure that the group keeps in step with change so that they do not become overwhelmed by the changes taking place. He should ensure that the changes being made do not undermine any of the group's key goals.

GARDAI INVESTIGATING the suspected sale of illegal drugs over the counter in shops have raided 22 premises across the country in a co-ordinated operation led by the Garda National Drugs Unit ( GNDU ).
The shops were raided yesterday starting at noon in counties Dublin, Cork, Galway, Louth, Laois, Longford, Westmeath, Tipperary and Kildare.
Although a stimulant product called "herbal E" containing benzylpiperazine has been the subject of much public debate in recent years, that product was not the target of yesterday's operation.
Yesterday's searches were the culmination of a three-month investigation led by GNDU but also involving drugs units and local gardai in the areas where the shops are located.
Det Supt Barry O'Brien of GNDU said the investigation was not focused, as some reports suggested, on whether the shops were licensed to sell the products in question. Instead, it was narrowly focused on determining if illegal ingredients were contained in the seized products being sold over the counter.
No arrests in relation to the products can take place until the analysis determines if they contain illegal elements. However, one person was arrested in the course of yesterday's searches in connection with possession of a controlled drug.
Products were taken for analysis from all but one of the shops raided yesterday.
It is unclear from where the products had been imported into the State. However, they are often processed and packaged in the UK or mainland Europe before being shipped to Ireland as legitimate goods for sale.
Grainne Kenny, international president of Europe Against Drugs, congratulated the Garda on yesterday's operation. She said many shops around the country were "selling drugs that are potentially very risky".

I always advise my client to have regular hair maintenance on their bonded Hair Extensions. With regular appointments and correct aftercare your Hair Extensions should last for at least six months.
At certain times of the year our hair grows faster than others, we may also shed hair naturally. A maintenance appointment is the perfect way to keep your extensions looking at their very best.
As the natural hair starts to grow the Hair Extension bonds become further away from the scalp, this can sometimes make them visible when styling your hair or putting your hair up.
Regular maintenance and check-ups will help to prevent any matting at the root area. Removing the Hair Extensions and replacing them back to their original position keeps your style looking good, and it also allows the hair to be topped up keeping your style looking its very best.
A maintenance appointment also enables me to check my clients are getting on well with their Hair Extensions. If you need help or would like a consultation, please contact me.

Using the power of observation we are drawing out positive characteristics or a self inventory of good character. Here are a few of the traits we are observing, Imagination, Kindness, decisiveness, discipline, persistence, enthusiasm and pleasing personality.
By observing these characteristics in others we can also see them in ourselves. This has a two for one type of impact. One is seeing good in others which is so needed in our world today, and the second is seeing that same good in ourselves.
As these encounters happen daily, we have a greater connection with those we come in contact with and cause a greater harmony. The effect would then be that we are all connected on this planet and kindness a great virtue.
I am so grateful for our Master Key experience. This online class has shown me many good things about myself and others. We work in harmony as a class, where students come from all over the world to attend.

Today we have a guest post from Gina M. Casillo. Gina is a staff writer for Serenity Living Stores, an online vendor of popular furniture amboss app herunterladen. She enjoys writing about home décor – especially when it comes to the spaces she's most intimate with.
Regardless of whether you work in a cubicle, your own corner office or from home like I do, sitting at a desk for more than 4 hours a day can be stressful on your body and mind herunterladen. Realistically, most of us spend over 40 hours at our desk in office settings. To top it off, our days are chock-full of stressors – from looming deadlines and annoying coworkers to overtime hours and demanding bosses toy blast spiel herunterladen. As the stress from this variety of sources builds and builds, you're bound to explode.
You likely already know or have seen the result of too much stress firsthand (especially if you work in this sort of environment) herunterladen. Severe, unmanaged stress can lead to high blood pressure, ulcers, digestive issues and even heart attacks. That's why stress relief is very important for your health music for ipod for free. The following stress-busting tips will help you lead not only a healthier life but a happier one:
1. Take frequent breathers.
Sometimes all it takes to turn down the dial on a stressful moment in your day is a short walk to shake off whatever is ailing you spotify wie viele lieder herunterladen. Getting a quick bout of fresh air outside a few times each day can drastically reduce your stress levels waffen spiele kostenlos downloaden pc.
In fact, when I worked in a cubicle city, my own doctor suggested that I make a point of getting up from my desk and walking around the office every hour herunterladen. I used this time to get a drink of water or a coffee, go to the bathroom or say hello to a co-worker. Standing up and walking away from your work frequently throughout the day lets you return rejuvenated and clear-headed herunterladen. As a result, you are much more productive.
2. Get stretchy.
I'm not talking about a full downward-facing dog but a few simple neck, back, arm and leg stretches, which will get the blood circulating and relieve physical stress on your lower back and other common pain areas for desk workers tube videoer kostenlos. Cubicles Houston TX with ergonomic chairs is a good, affordable solution to this problem as well.
3. Walk at lunch.
Most office workers don't have time to go to the gym over their lunch hour. However, a good, lengthy trek might do the trick. Why not invite a few friends along and make this a routine? Getting out of the office for a 30-minute walk will reinvigorate your body and mind. Choose to walk in an interesting, relaxing environment like a park or hiking trail and enjoy the surroundings and healthy conversation.
4. Play some of your favorite tunes.
Music soothes the soul, right? Playing music at work can help you relax and unwind. I use my iPod to lightly play music in the background while I write, but at work, you could grab your favorite set of headphones and listen to a satellite radio station or a YouTube mix.
5. Don't be afraid to say no.
It's human nature to take on more than we can handle so as not to disappoint others – particularly our families, bosses, coworkers and friends. Don't be afraid to say no if your plate is just too full. Keep the lines of communication open with your boss and be honest if you're feeling overwhelmed.

Islamabad: A Pakistani official says gunmen riding on motorcycles shot and killed three paramilitary officers in the southwestern city of Quetta before fleeing. Wasay Khan, a spokesman for the Frontier Corps, says the officers were on guard duty when they were attacked on Friday. Two died at the scene, while the third succumbed to his wounds at a hospital.
No one claimed responsibility for the attack. Balochistan, of which Quetta is the provincial capital, has long been the center of a low-level insurgency by small separatist groups which demand more autonomy and a greater share in the region's natural resources, like gas and oil.
The province is also home to Islamic militants. The government says it's trying to improve the local economy and bring the separatists into mainstream politics.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. OverviewAn extra-sized spectacular featuring art by Walter Simonson, as Superman goes to Hell — literally — during the most nightmarish adventure of his heroic career, and a dread portent of that which may be coming! Who, or what, is "The Beast from Krypton"? This issue — featuring the Phantom Stranger, Zatanna, the Demon and a host of other DC superstars from Wonder Woman to Animal Man — is guaranteed to send chills down your spine!Phantom Stranger approaches Clark, letting him know something supernatural is happening that will concern him. We cut to Clark coming home to Lois and eventually laying down for the night. We see Clark's dream sequence, He's in a massive throne with millions of people around his feet praising him, each one with Superman's "S" emblazoned on their forehead. Within this dream we cut to a man without the "S" on his forehead trying to by some food from a vendor. The vendor shouts "Be Gone! you do not wear the Mark!" and we see Supergirl, Wonder Woman, Batman, and Hal Jordan (each with the "S"), swoop in and do away with him. Clark wakes up, and decides he won't get any sleep and is going out. As he's suiting up, Lois, in half-sleep asks for him to get ice cream and pickles from the store. While at the grocery store, Clark, feeling that everyone has demanded to much of him, smashes the entire pickle display. Zatanna appears and when Clark notices her she exclaims she's in astral form and should be invisible to him. Clark refrains he knows he is still in a dream, and since he has, for some reason, dreamed her he can see her regardless of her form, then uses his super breath and blows her away. Outside the grocery store Lex is raising a ruckus, so Superman spits a glob of saliva through his head. He rubs his hands together creating "super-friction" which he states in turn creates static electricity and zaps Braniac. Doomsday and a large group of other villains show up and Clark takes them all out. Clark hears Jimmy Olsen's signal watch and digs him out of the rubble of a destroyed building. Clark complains that Olsen has no idea how annoying the sound of that signal watch is and then he whistles which causes Olsen's head to explode. Perry White approaches Clark saying he can't abandon the Daily Planet, it's what keeps him grounded. Clark stomps on the ground and the Daily Planet comes crashing down on Perry. Clark looks up to his apartment, using X-ray vision he sees Lois laying in bed thinking of baby names, then he blasts the apartment with his heat vision. Clark flies to Smallville and crushes a whole in the road revealing lava, which he lowers him self down through. Arriving in Hell, Clark is greeted by Etrigian the Demon easily tossing him aside he fights his way through the hordes of hell until he comes to a throne. A meek demon, named Rakkar, reveals himself questioning Clark if he is so sure this is a dream. Rakkar explains that when Krypton was destroyed, so was it's hell and since he has escapes the denizens of Krypton's hell have imbued him with their power in order to stop Clark. Rakkar attacks and his bite morphs Clark in to a monstrous beast. Beside the beast, Superman punches out from beneath the ground explaining that Phantom Stranger warned him and split him into two, creating a shell of Clark which was corruptible and gave in, while keeping Clark's true incorruptible self safe. The denizen's of Kryton's Hell appear and crush Rakkar. Clark explains that if he could destroy them forever he would but since their existence is tied to greed, hatred, and anger, they will always live. We end with Clark coming home to Lois saying he got the ice cream and pickles she wanted, and she cannot recall having even asked for them. Clark asks Lois if he has ever killed anyone and Lois assures him that he never has. In the deeps of hell we see Rakkar's smashed body, his eyes open slowly as he feeds off of Clark's doubt.

READ about Piers Morgan's long career in journalism here.
One evening removed from President Barack Obama's fifth State of the Union address, on Wednesday Piers Morgan invited Rudy Giuliani to join him for a live interview as he encouraged the former Republican presidential candidate to offer his perspective on a speech that's been heavily poured over in the past 24 hours since it was first delivered.
As gun control is an issue that's been covered extensively on "Piers Morgan Live," the host found it relevant to suggest that Obama's address had been conspicuously light on the topic:
"This is a man, who promised the families of Newtown, 'as I'm your president,' – he's been down there several times – 'I am your president, I will get action on gun control,'" described the primetime host. "Last night, this frankly, I thought was pretty disgraceful, to have two paragraphs, almost dismissing any efforts really?"
According to Giuliani, if the president is committed to proceeding with legislation, even in the face of congressional resistance as he suggested Tuesday night, he's going to be forced to employ the type of give-and-take politicking he's been reluctant to engage in historically:
"If he wants to do gun control, he's got to be willing to make concessions to the Republicans on things that they want," insisted 2001's "Time" Person of the Year. "As a president, you have to be willing to say, 'this is my priority. I'm going to go for that. Then I have to give away three or four other things. But I have to give away some things that my constituents might not like, my base might not like in order to get it.' He doesn't seem to be able to do that."
Seated across from the host in his studio, the former mayor of New York City summarized the challenges of political deal-making, an "art form" in which both Morgan and Giuliani find the president to be severely deficient:
"Your base is going to get angry at you for some of the things you surrender," said Giuliani. "But you make a decision, 'this is more important to me.'"
Watch the clip for more of Morgan's interview with Rudy Giuliani, and for the next edition of "Piers Morgan Live," watch CNN every night at 9.

Openly gay US ambassador to Denmark weds partner
COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — The U.S. ambassador to Denmark has married his partner in the Scandinavian country that became the first nation to allow gay couples to formalize their unions in 1989.
Rufus Gifford, the U.S. envoy since September 2013, is a strong gay rights advocate and often appears with Stephen DeVincent, a 56-year-old veterinarian, at his side. The two were married Saturday at the Copenhagen City Hall. Gifford, a 41-year-old Boston native, wrote on Twitter: "26 yrs ago the site of 1st legal gay unions in the world. Humbled and emotional."
Later in the day, he posted a smiling photo of the two, showing off their rings: "In the land that created fairy tales, we just started our own."

- Description
DetailsOrbitals is a 42HP eurorack analogue step-sequencer that offers a lot of useful features in a very playable and affordable sequencing package.Of all of the features offered by this design, perhaps the most interesting are bipolar output modes as well as the voltage controlled step select features.There are two different modes of voltage controlled step addressing: In both modes, the step is selected from a 0-4V control voltage (in 8 step mode, each step is in 0.5V increments. 0.25V increments for 16 steps then, of course):Mode 1: Voltage Control (clocked)In this mode, it works somewhat like a sample and hold. That is, the step only updates and generates a new gate/CV based on the input control voltage each time a new clock pulse is received. That is, the voltage control of steps is slaved to the clock source you input. If the voltage stays the same, but it keeps clocking, you'll get the same CV and gate each time the clock input pulses.Mode 2: Voltage Control (quantised)This mode differs from mode 1 in that it is not clock-driven. The clock input for the sequencer basically does nothing in this mode, and instead, each time the input CV steps into a new voltage increment, the sequencer will go to the relative step and generate a new CV and gate for that step. In this way, it basically derives a clock from whatever CV source you input. If you are using a ramp wave to generate a linear sequence with CV, and you increase the frequency of the ramp wave LFO, your sequence speed will automatically follow along with it.

As is the norm for me, I woke up Sunday morning and sipped on a cup of joe while I got my Netflix horror fix on. This week the movie of choice was Kristy, a movie I hadn't heard of and initially, I passed it up based on the description. It was essentially described as a college campus slasher film. Slasher horror has been so over-done lately, and I didn't have much interest in watching a bunch of half-naked sorority girls running from some guy wearing a mask and wielding a large sharp-edged tool of some kind. I searched for an alternative, but nothing really struck me as worthy of my coffee time, so I went back to Kristy and took a chance based on the 3.5 star rating.
And, I'm glad I did. It was a slasher film, and it does have some guys in masks, but it was different. There were no mindless jocks and cheerleaders getting picked off one-by-one. It was about a young college coed staying on campus by herself while her classmates all go home for Thanksgiving. Much to her misfortune, she's targeted by a twisted cult of killers as their next victim. Ultimately, this was a story about a survivor learning how to defend herself and kick some major ass. It was a fun, completely satisfying ride. If you're tired of the slasher flick formula, I urge you to give this movie a shot because it turns the genre on its head. It was well worth my coffee time. I give this my full pot rating.

What is the GAPS Programme?
Now that we have a plan of action set, let's discover how it can be carried out by taking a look at what is involved in the GAPS Programme.
View this video which aired on Channel 7 News Gold Coast, for an introduction to the GAPS Programme.
This is an additional video, hosted on YouTube.
GAPS camps
The GAPS Programme camps are a unique opportunity that allow athletes and their coaches to experience high-performance coaching and performance support services that are not readily available in developing countries of the Pacific.
There are three 5-day high-performance camps located on the Gold Coast, Australia and hosted by Griffith University. To deliver these high-performance camps, the CGF and Griffith University partnered with:
- The City of Gold Coast
- Runaway Bay Sports Super Centre
- The Queensland Academy of Sport
Strategy and meaning of the GAPS acronym
A three-stage strategy is used to focus on specific outcomes for the athletes. This framework of the GAPS Programme is based on the acronym: GAPS.
Listen to Associate Professor Clare Minahan explain this acronym.
Gather – gather information about the current health, training status, and high-performance practices of the participating athletes and support staff.
Adjust – adjust, where appropriate, current athlete and system practices.
Prepare, Practice, and Provide – this stage will help:
Prepare athletes and coaches to transfer their knowledge learned during the GAPS Programme to their domestic programmes
Practice techniques learned during the GAPS Programme
Provide athletes and coaches with feedback regarding athlete progress over the 18-month period
Sustain - This is across all camps where the goal is to sustain the transfer of knowledge throughout and sustain the whole programme in its ongoing delivery.
Who is the programme open to?
The Programme is open to all Oceania Commonwealth Games Associations (CGAs), and at least one athlete from each of the 12 CGAs in Oceania is guaranteed a place at the camp. The Australian and New Zealand CGAs voluntarily agreed their athletes would not participate in the GAPS Programme.
For successful implementation, it is critical to ensure that the programme is limited to highly motivated athletes with the potential to both compete at the highest level and to benefit from a rigorous high-performance programme. The GAPS Programme was therefore limited to Oceania's top 50 athletes and their coaches. In addition, sports were also limited to the five sports that Oceania predominantly competes in. These are Athletics, Beach Volleyball, Boxing, Lawn Bowls and Swimming.

The winter season has hit the midwest this weekend – we've gotten our first measurable snowfall. As beautiful as i find the shapes of falling snowflakes, I like to observe this beauty from indoors. Movie nights are necessary and frequent occurrences for me in the wintertime. My wintertime movie nights wouldn't be complete without a few odds and ends. Without further ado, here are my movie night essentials:
> A cozy blanket – A no-brainer, am i right?
> A yummy-smelling candle A comforting smelling candle helps create a cozy atmosphere especially during the colder months. Lately, I've been burning the Christmas Cookie candle from Yankee Candle – a sweet birthday gift from Tucker's little sister, Bleu!
> Beverage (or in my case, beverages, one hot and one cold, usually) of choice I'm one of those people whose body temperature changes drastically, based on what I'm drinking. Whenever I'm watching a movie (aka I don't plan on getting up for a while) I try to have one cold and one warm beverage so that I can stay comfortable and "hydrated." I'm a big fan of herbal tea, white wine, hot cocoa and good ole h2o.
(More on the blog: Perfect Movies for a Date Night at Home)
> Christmas lights The twinkle of the hanging christmas lights when the rest of the lights are off complete the movie night atmosphere.
> (Sometimes) Snacks Sometimes I have snacks while watching a movie. I say sometimes because usually my snack food of choice is something salty, which usually comes in the form of crunchy chips or pretzels aka noise makers. Eating noisy food while watching a movie, especially if you've never seen it before, can be quite distracting so I try to avoid it (unless it's popcorn – I could eat popcorn forever).

We have hit the ground running with our first facilitations of the new school year. What better way to start off than with classroom management.
Ellen and Annette Teach the Habit of EFFORT
Foster Student Perseverance – Teach the Habit of Effort
We are approaching the end of the semester. Any chance you might have this experience? Students are receiving their grades for the semester. As your students are leaving your classroom you hear a couple of your students say, "I can't believe Mr./Mrs. (insert your name) gave me a C." In your mind you are thinking, "GAVE YOU! GAVE YOU! You earned that C or didn't earn a B. You think of all the times you attempted to assist this student so they could "earn" a higher grade – but John wasn't willing to try harder – wasn't willing to persevere.
This leads to the age-old question: Can perseverance be taught? Van Overwalle & De Metsenaere, 1990, found that students who were taught about the relationship between effort and achievement increased their achievement more than students who were taught techniques for time management and comprehension of new material.
Students generally contribute their success or failure to one of four causes:
Other people
Teaching students how to link effort with achievement will lead to the skill and habit of perseverance.
Another Soy Latte, Another Day with Annette
Hi Friends!
I'm back at Starbucks in sunny St. Georg enjoying a soy latte and anticipating a great day with Learning Walks. These Learning Walks are going to focus on Tasking and Depth of Knowledge. This work has been built over time to this phase. I am so excited to work with this group of amazing teachers as they are comfortable being observed by their peers and learning from their peers as well.
Where did this work start?
1. Big 8 – Focus on foundational expectations. As all of you teachers and administrators know, if expectations are not in place the rest can not happen… The principal and I did a drop-in in every classroom – running like crazy women (my kids would say that's normal behavior for me). I then did a PD after school, based on their data – celebrating the high data points and simply making teachers' lives easier by giving them a few pointers.
2. We then focused on Tasking (whole group). I did demo lessons while teachers collected data on what I was doing and how the students were actively engaged. Life is indeed GREAT when I get to teach kids. I love you tall people – but… kids are super fun. I learned I was pretty, that I did not look as good in the shirt I was wearing, and that yes, kindergarten students do hope for their mothers to give birth to kittens… : )
3. We then moved into observing teachers student engagement – tracking open/assessment/engagement. Let me pause and explain those terms. Ponder what kinds of questions you rely on… Open – kinda like a fishing expedition. You throw the question out and some kid calls out or raises their hand or you say the question again or you answer it yourself or a child hollars out when is lunch, etc… You actually already know who is going to answer even before you ask the question. Assessment – calling on one student. To quote my good friend Ellen, "What are the other 24 students doing?" Engagement Requests – or The All Student Response System. Basically you get rid of the question mark. Instead of "Who is the main character?" (open) or "Gary, who is the main character?" (assessment), you phrase a request – a command. Whisper to your partner who the main character is. Write the main character's name in the air. On the count of three, when I lower my hand, tell me the main character.
4. We then focused on student to student engagement and Depth of Knowledge. One of the instructional coaches at the school taught two lessons with the upper grade teachers as students. The first lesson was pure text book with me stopping the lesson constantly asking, "What is the missed opportunity." The instructional coach then taught the same Learning Target – but perfectly! Student to student engagement – depth of knowledge – etc… It was fascinating to watch even adults be off task the first lesson and totally 100% engaged the second lesson.
So, here we are today – Learning Walks for Depth of Knowledge and Tasking. I have to go now as one of the coaches wants a hot chocolate, the other an orange mango smoothy…
I'll check in tomorrow (from the same Starbucks) and let you know how the day went and also I want to tell you what to do with kids who can't or won't partner share or work in a small group.
Have a Great day!

Darren Holmes is a photographer whose works explore the dichotomy between instinctual, "animal" life, and the rationalizing, "civilized" mind. Entitled animals being human, this series depicts nude (or nearly nude) paint-splattered men and women engaged in strange and frisky behaviors, such as crouching and crawling on the floor, burrowing in hay, and playing with cardboard props. Each image is abstract, elaborate, and tinged with humor, with a lot of "meaning" intentionally left to the imagination: what are they doing, and for what purpose? The confounding, playful absurdity is entirely Holmes' intention, as he seeks to unravel our innate drives and behaviors from the constructions and constraints of intellect and social conditioning. As he explained in a statement provided to Beautiful/Decay:
"To me, all of the things that unify us as really human are things beneath intellect, the guttural stuff like pain response, elation, pleasure, anguish, anger, the search for warmth and companionship, that kind of thing. They're all concerns of the body, instinctive and what we associate with animal behaviour.
Then we have these clever, intellectual, analytical minds which maybe sit over top of it all, rationalizing, regulating us, attempting to moderate all the stuff underneath. There are probably good reasons we need to do this sometimes, to act civilly with each other. But in some ways, I think intellect becomes how we distract ourselves from facing some truths."
What Holmes' work signifies, then, is a playful deconstruction of the "human," a species category which is so often defined in opposition to "animals". In many cases, contemporary (and intellectualized) humanity has actively separated itself from earthly "filth" — mud, blood, excrement, and anything "messy" — in order to achieve a sense of species-based superiority. "I mean, we must be more enlightened than those that came before us … right?" Holmes writes, tongue-in-cheek. "Maybe we just want to believe certain things to avoid facing issues, like how little we've changed … that we're just dirty, shitting, fucking, fighting primates, and how temporary we really are in this world."
Given the delightfully absurd energy of Holmes' photos, I enquired about his method, which he described as a "live performance"; each scene is a holistic accumulation of energy and creativity, involving "like-minded people who want to use their bodies to capture something that can only come from a sort of lengthy, improvised dance punctuated by exchanges [and] ideas." The props are similarly spontaneous; mostly limited to "cardboard, canvas, wood, [and] paint," the models indulge in a youthful approach to these objects, making the props imaginative and representational rather than over-intellectualized and "concrete" in their meaning. In this way, Holmes deconstructs adulthood as well, that phase in our lives when we are taught to overanalyze and constantly moderate and rationalize our behaviors.
Visit Holmes' website and Facebook page and follow him as he explores physicality and the intimate, pre-intellectual connections that exist between all of us human animals. (Via Art Fucks Me)

Now back to my original post.
It's three more sleeps until Christmas morning!
This year, the end kind of creeped up on me. Tomorrow, I begin my winter holidays. Can't wait to just lay around and do nothing.
A few weeks ago, Community Thrift and Vintage, one of my favourite places to shop at, opened their second store locations. During the visit, I found the most amazing sweater!
It looks brand new and never been washed! So hipster chic.
It will probably be my main lounge wear during my break.
These are some activities I will engage in while being a chic hipster during this holiday.
Maybe I will stand again. Is it Christmas yet?
Fine, I will read a book. Chairs, interesting...
Oh, someone's at the door.
Ah, it's my boyfriend. Now he can join me! This is what we are going to do together, in both of our hipster sweaters.
And when it's finally Christmas, we will do this.
This is how hipster celebrate Christmas isn't it? My mind has been scrambled a bit from listening to Christmas music all day long since the first of December.
I hope everyone is faring well with all the festive preparations. It's almost that time of the year.
On me, vintage hipster sweater from Community Thrift and Vintage, dropped crotch cotton pants from Aritzia, red pumps that I love from C'est la vie consignment boutique. Shopstyle has some amazing sweaters and red pumps as well.
On him, vintage sweater and turtle neck from his parents' closet, jeans from Fidelity Denim, sneakers from Aldo.

In my ongoing series on cities smarter than Dallas, please allow me to add Seoul, South Korea, another place we need to send a team to right away.
Yesterday the Dallas City Council heard an awe-inspiring presentation by Guillermo Penalosa, a leading-edge planner whose work has helped transform cities from Canada to Colombia. He spoke about bike trails and then my own favorite topic these days (because we don't get it) -- linear river parks.
There's a story about his talk in this morning's Dallas Morning News. And, because of my deep respect for that particular news organ, which verges on fanatical religious awe, I am going to assume they entirely left out his bit about Seoul and the Cheonggyecheon project because of the high cost of ink. So it is my own honor and privilege, here in this ink-free environment, to catch you up on what Penalosa told the council.
Paraphrasing here, I interpreted his remarks to mean: Only idiots who couldn't even make it in the Third World would put a highway down their riverfront.
Penalosa, I am sure, knows nothing of Dallas' fervent desire to put a highway down its riverfront. His PowerPoint presentation is probably the same that he delivers all over the world. I'm sure he had no idea he was jabbing us in the eye with a sharp stick.
In Seoul, as Penalosa pointed out, the city started by building a six-lane highway over Cheonggyecheon Creek, a tributary of the Han River, in 1976. As Penalosa explained, it filled up with gridlocked traffic that spewed toxins far and wide.
So they double-decked it. Pretty soon they had a two-layer wedding cake of toxin-spewing gridlock. Some officials started thinking about triple-decking.
In 2003, a progressive mayor put his hand up and said stop. This is going in the wrong direction. Mayor Lee Myung-bak led a successful campaign to have the whole thing torn down and the river restored as a lovely linear park, now a jewel of the city and an engine of redevelopment along its banks.
What about the cars? Seoul told them to go away. And in fact, Penalosa told our council members, getting rid of cars is the sole solution: "There is no city in the world the size of Dallas that has solved the issue of mobility through the private car," he said.
The answers, he said, are public transit coupled with serious efforts to make walking and biking a better experience. My own two bits to add would be that there's nothing better for walking than lovely trails and linear parks.
Penalosa was not consciously speaking about or to Dallas, but his remarks should have been taken by the council as both a knife in their hearts and a window on a better tomorrow. Otherwise in its approach to the challenges of the future, our city is plunging blindly into the past.
City Hall and the old-school moneybags who still control it are ignorant of the world beyond our city limits, and that ignorance is turning those limits into prison walls. If we allow them to keep spending our money to build freeways through downtown and useless decorative bridges, they're going to wind up putting this city six feet under.
We Believe Local Journalism is Critical to the Life of a City
Engaging with our readers is essential to the Observer's mission. Make a financial contribution or sign up for a newsletter, and help us keep telling Dallas's stories with no paywalls.
Support Our Journalism
Dallas needs to get out more. We should commission some kind of best practices team to travel the globe -- even if it's only virtual travel online -- to find out how leading-edge cities around the world are resolving the same problems and conflicts that seem always to be so insoluble here.
First stops: 1) Seoul (riverfront), 2) Galway (linear forest park), 3) Detroit (farmers market), 4) Mexico City (air).
For some of us, I know, this may require a tad or two of unaccustomed humility, a touch of modesty, a hard swallow, perhaps. But remember: We could put it up on billboards leading into town: DALLAS -- MODESTY CAPITAL OF THE WORLD. How one's heart would swell.

Do you have physical fitness goals? Unfortunately, few people meet their fitness goals. Anyone who wants to get into good physical shape will need to be totally dedicated. Read this article to find out more about creating a fitness program that corresponds to your goals.
Are you like many others and have very little free time in your life? You can cut your workout into smaller increments. You don't need to make your workouts longer, you should just divide them into two parts. Just workout a 1/2 an hour during the day and a 1/2 an hour at night. You can split a gym workout into one workout in the gym and one outdoors, if making two trips to the gym doesn't fit your daily schedule.
If you want to use weights, start out on the smallest machines. Small muscles tire before bigger ones, so it is logical to work with small weights before moving onto larger weights. The progression should be gradual, from lighter to heavier until you are achieving the desired results.
Your core affects the way you perform nearly every exercise. Having a stable, strong core helps with balance and any other exercise you do. Doing sit ups is a good way for you to build your core. Sit-ups also increase how far you can turn from side to side. This will support your abdominal muscles in working harder with greater endurance.
One way to quickly build up strength in your legs is to do "wall sits." To start, look for an open wall space that is wide enough to accommodate your body. Stand roughly 18 inches facing away from the wall. You need to lean back and bend your knees against the wall. Keeping this position, slowly move your body down the wall until you are mimicking a sitting position. You should not, however, actually be resting on the ground. Stay in this position for as long as you can maintain it.
Set a schedule for your exercise routine in order to maintain a level of consistency and to reduce the probability of avoiding it. Plan the number of days, the times of days and the types of activity that you will participate in. If missing one workout day has to happen, make sure you put a make up date on your calendar and actually do it.
You can get stronger faster by doing the same amount of exercising in ten percent less time. Your stamina will increase and your muscles will get a better work out. For instance, if you usually spend 30 minutes doing your workout routine, do the same routine in 27 minutes when you work out next.
Doing Chin
Are you having problems doing chin-ups? Most people who exercise dread doing chin-ups, so it is important to redirect your thoughts about them. Don't think about pulling your body weight up, imagine your elbows are being pulled down instead. This trick will make chin-ups a little less harder to do and make it easier to do more of them.
With the right advice and guidance, fitness is a reachable goal. The end might remain intimidating, but at least now it is a definite possibility. Fitness results come from hard work and effort alone. Use what you learned here and you can be in the best shape of your life.

Growth in business is all about leverage. I'm not just talking about financial leverage (ie borrowing), I'm also talking about operating leverage and leveraging your time. It's constantly reaching to get more out of what you put in.
A big part of what we love about what we do is we get to learn about businesses and come up with solutions to their growth capital challenges. In the process, we see many different business owners with businesses of various sizes and using a variety of strategies and management tactics. There's micro managers, there's big picture guys, there's visionaries, there's hardworkers, and some who seem to just get lucky! Not all of them make it all the way through our underwriting process, but for many, we help them achieve their goals.
The first type of leverage that a business owner needs to explore in order to grow is the ability to leverage his/her time. Too often we find someone that wants to grow but their focus is constantly turned towards random HR, operational or technical issues that are a constant distraction. It is a tough job and some of them even seem overworked. When you start a business, there is no avoiding these kind of duties, as they are critical and without resources in the early days they cannot be outsourced. However, there comes a time when the business owner has to step back and let someone else run these aspects or else growth will be constrained forever. Then the business owner should focus on strategy, acquisitions, growth capital investments, and ultimately negotiating deals that have a large impact on the business.
The trouble with this is even when a business has the resources to begin outsourcing some of the daily management duties (ie hiring a skilled operations person), a lot of business owners have difficulty stepping back. They say to themselves that "nobody cares about this business the way I do" and so they feel uncomfortable outsourcing these functions because they are critical to the success of the business. It looks like a big risk to them. While it's probably true that nobody cares about the business as much as the founder, at some point you just need to take that risk. You've got to pay up for a talented person and put in a compensation structure that aligns incentives properly… and then you can focus on what you need to in order to take things to the next level!
Now that's leverage!
The Best Kind of Leverage
Growth in business is all about leverage. I'm not just talking about financial leverage (ie borrowing), I'm also talking about operating leverage and leveraging your time. It's constantly reaching to get more out of what you put in.

Several experiments were conducted to further develop capacitance sensor-based automated irrigation systems. The first experiment tested whether the photosynthetic response to decreasing volumetric water content (VWC) differed among four species tested. A sigmoidal curve best described the relationship for all species (r2 [r-squared]>0.86). The VWC that maintained maximum photosynthesis at 90% was selected as a potential conservative irrigation set point and values were not different between species, nor were 100% container capacity values. This indicates that a single set point is adequate to initiate irrigation and that a common upper threshold for VWC can be used for this group of taxa. This research also examined which of five sensor placements best estimates VWC and the effect of low VWC on sensor reading variability. Five sensor placements were tested; three sensors were horizontally inserted into the sidewall at 5 cm, 10 cm and 15 cm from the base of the container. The other two placements, vertical and diagonal, were inserted into the substrate surface. All positions showed a strong linear relationship (r2[r-squared]>0.92) making them all appropriate models of container substrate moisture. No placement proved better than the others, but choosing a vertical placement is most practical for sensor calibration, installation, and removal. Other trials were conducted to test two container nursery irrigation regimes on oakleaf hydrangea (Hydrangea quercifolia 'Alice') in both nursery and greenhouse environments. Plants were automatically irrigated by one of two substrate moisture sensor-based regimes: 1) a daily water use (DWU) system that delivered the exact amount of water lost in the previous 24 h and 2) an on-demand (OD) irrigation system based on the relationship between substrate moisture level and photosynthetic rate. In this system, irrigation was applied when the substrate moisture level fell below 33% container capacity, which corresponded to 90% maximum predicted photosynthetic rate. Both treatments used significantly less water than the industry standard of 2.5 cm/day. This research demonstrated that automating irrigation based on the relationship between photosynthesis and VWC may be practical for multiple species in a nursery setting and can attenuate water use to meet crop demands.

Creating an Image
Shopfronts are a part of your street. They provide colour, animation and an overall sense of the quality and diversity in a town. In order to create a sense of cohesion, it is valuable to develop a design guidelines to assist building owners and architects.
Shopfronts should relate visually to the overall design of the building and the surrounding environment. Without this, a high street can appear cluttered or even 'cloned' with advertising signs obscuring the sight lines and standardised shop fronts that are not in keeping with the architectural character of the buildings and wider personality of your area. Remember that great places are 'alive after five' too, so the design and look of security shutters is important to consider, as it lighting. The design of each shopfront will vary, but the presence of consistent elements in every shopfront will create an impression that the varied businesses belong together and compliment each other.

Vaseline Lip Therapy Y U So Stupid Cute?
My mum is kinda like the dad in my Big Fat Greek Wedding. Ya know, with the Windex? Accept my mum doesn't think Windex is the cure all, she thinks Vaseline and Vicks Vapor Rub is.
Got a cut? Use Vaseline. Unruly brows? Use Vaseline. Cold sore? Use Vaseline. Crusty, sore nose from a cold? Use Vaseline. Dry elbows and knees? Use Vaseline.
Yeah, old school remedies from Mama Muse.
She right on most accounts, Vaseline really is a nifty little cure all. Now some folks like it, some folks not so much. I don't mind it which is why I think this little tub of Vaseline Lip Therapy is oh so stupid cute.
Tell me this isn't cute?
I paid a $1.25 for this little do-dad (I placed a lipstick tube beside it so you can see how tiny it is) at Walgreens several days ago. It's almost as small as a US quarter! Granted, not exactly travel friendly as you're not wanting to dip in and apply on the road but very adorable for sitting on your nightstand for application before bed.
Vaseline has always proved really great for curing my chapped, dry lips. Some folks aren't particularly keen on petroleum but I don't mind, whatever works eh?
Plus add in the freaking tiny little jar and you slay me!
Available now at drugstores.
Do you use Vaseline?
Avoid it?
Do share!

Tadataka Unno, the most recent pianist in the Roy Hargrove Quintet, is the current pianist with legendary Jimmy Cobb, and is forging his own path as leader of his own piano trio.
"The things I love about his playing are he has a tremendous sense of dynamics, and he doesn't just bang the piano. He touches it like Hank Jones, Teddy Wilson and Tommy Flanagan. He's not afraid to play something beautiful. It's more of a challenge to play something beautiful. It's challenging to do that and still make it interesting." – Roy Hargrove
