Balancing your work life with family time can be a challenge on its own. Throw school into the mix and you have a demanding, but potentially very rewarding, mix to manage. Here are some ideas to help you make it through school without forgetting what your family looks like or missing out on important life moments.
No matter how complicated your schedule gets, you're golden as long as you can stay on top of it. Plan your school and work schedules out first, then sit down with your family and plan out the together times, from field trips to movie nights, that are most important to them.
It may be tempting to pack your schedule to the gills, trusting that you'll figure it out along the way somehow. But being realistic from the start helps keep stress levels low and avoid disappointments. If you need an hour to get something done, plan an hour into your schedule -- not 30 minutes.
From who cooks dinner to bedtimes and when homework gets done, establishing a household routine is like automating -- or at least streamlining -- everyday tasks. Clear expectations make life easier and give everyone a way of contributing to your success in school.
If it's on paper, you won't have to worry about keeping track of it in your head. Having both a daily to-do list and a long-term to-do list ensures that nothing falls by the wayside. The lists help you stay productive, too; if you can't bring yourself to tackle what you're supposed to be doing on a given day, just choose something else from the list.
Put your heads together and designate a family night where the only criteria is that you get together and have fun. Think pizza, board games, a favorite TV show, fun crafts or going for a bike ride. There are only two rules: Everybody's there, and no work or school work allowed during that time.
There are only 24 hours in a day. So, if you hit a point where you just can't do everything, it's time to delegate! Turn to your family, friends, coworkers and schoolmates, depending on the challenge you're facing -- and ask for help.
Meeting all the demands of work, school and family can leave you feeling like you're being pulled in many different directions. Make sure to schedule periodic down time to refresh and renew -- whether it's quiet time with a book, a short midday nap, or just five minutes to close your eyes and breathe.
Remember, you're in school for a reason. Although balancing school and family (or work and school and family) is a true challenge for anybody, you're working your way toward some very tangible successes and rewards. Hang in there and circle the family wagons -- you'll be ready to graduate before you know it!

Finding a quiet and distraction-free place to study is one of the most common study tips you probably hear. But what if you can't find the perfect study space? If you're having trouble focusing because you're interrupted by roommates, your kids or even your own wandering mind, don't stress ─ there are many ways to solve this problem.
You don't have to go to a silent library to get the most out of your study session. Instead, you simply need to know how to make the best of the space you have, whether it's a coffee shop, home office or even a small space in the kitchen. Sometimes you just have to get a little creative.
Find a room or space in your house and make sure everyone in your home knows that it will become your study space. If you are in a room where you can close the door, put a sign on it to indicate that you are studying so everyone knows not to disturb you. If your study space is the dining room table, find something to put on the table or hang from your chair that tells everyone you are studying, so they know not to distract you.
Turn your phone off completely or turn notification and text message sounds off so you can still receive phone calls if needed. Log out of everything on your computer that you don't need for studying - i.e. Facebook, instant message services, email, etc. You might be surprised at how productive you are by completely eliminating all distractions. While it doesn't take long to read a text message or post a Facebook status update, it breaks your concentration, making it difficult to get back on track.
If a completely quiet study space is not possible, try putting on music with no lyrics to help you tune out other distractions. Classical music is often recommended, as it is relaxing and peaceful, helping you to focus. While listening to a mix of your favorite tracks might be more fun, there's a good chance you'll want to focus more on the music than your coursework, which defeats the purpose. If possible, listen to your music with a good pair of noise-cancelling headphones to help you block out the world around you!
Think about what you or anyone in your home will need while you are studying so you can take care of it before you get started. Will you need a drink or snack while you're studying? Maybe your kids will want a snack or to watch a movie? Does your roommate always seem to lose the TV remote as soon as you sit down to study? You'll be less likely to be interrupted if you can fulfill these needs before you start studying. After taking care of these tasks, make it clear that you're not available for the next hour or two, as you'll be busy with schoolwork.

Whether you are in pursuit of your bachelor's degree or well on your way to achieving a master's, it's never too late to learn how to study smarter. While each student needs to find his or her own recipe for studying success, some basic tenets will help you avoid distractions and ineffective time management. Here are five things to consider integrating into your study habits so that you can keep your education on track and ace your next test or assignment.
When Internet research can't be avoided and a connection is required for online classes, detaching from the online world might seem impossible. Still, it's wise to turn off as many electronic devices as possible and log out of social media sites even when you are online. Losing just a few seconds here and there as you cycle through your Facebook-Twitter-Instagram routine will add up to hours of wasted time in the long run.
Having someone else to keep you accountable is another way to stay on track. If you have an appointment at the library with a friend, chances are greater that you will be there at the time you originally planned. When you go it alone, it's easier to put off studying to a later time or leave early.
Some things shouldn't be rushed, like proofreading your research paper or careful mathematical calculations. However, when it comes to something like piecing together an outline or organizing your flashcards -- create a competition against yourself. Set a timer for a reasonable number of minutes and aim to complete your task before the buzzer goes off. Give yourself a small reward, like a coffee break, when you succeed. This also allows you to break up your learning tasks into smaller goals -- another way to study smarter.
Sure, sometimes you will wind up reading a book in bed. However, it's too easy to get distracted when you study in your bedroom, and you can even wind up disrupting your sleep schedule this way. When your brain makes a connection between studying and your bed, unwinding at night becomes more difficult. Instead, designate a desk in your home or the library to be your study spot.
Be honest with yourself about when you are most alert and productive. Have you been trying to study at night when your brain is simply sharper and better conditioned for learning in the morning? If that's the case, get in a good study session every day before noon. In time, it will become natural to pick up your textbook just after finishing breakfast.

For many students, taking online classes is simply more practical than driving to a campus and sitting in a classroom at a designated time. The convenience factor alone makes it a great option for those with strict schedules. As an online student you have the flexibility to decide when and where you attend class, but earning your degree still requires a significant amount of time and effort.
We've noticed that successful students often share certain traits. Do you also have these critical skills? Working to sharpen these qualities can help you succeed in online learning and beyond.
Staying organized is critical for success in any arena, and online learning is no exception. Missed assignments - in both academic and work life - can affect your advancement opportunities. However, technology can make it a bit easier to stay on schedule. Sync your calendar with school deadlines so it sends automatic reminders about projects and assignments. An up-to-date calendar is among the most useful organizational tools available to most online students.
Successful students prioritize their education. You can still complete your work in time to go out and have fun, but school comes first. Once you make the commitment to your education, it's crucial to take a hard look at your current schedule. Keep in mind, regardless of the format, every class requires a certain amount of in-class time and at-home study.
Careful time management is the foundation for staying on task and on schedule. Be prepared to miss out on some social activities, and plan for the ones you definitely do not want to miss. When you stay focused and committed to your program, you can reach graduation and experience the reward of earning your degree.
Your classroom material will provide much of the academic information you need, but there will be times when you need extra help. There is no shame in asking, and, you will find no shortage of people at South University who want to help you. Your instructor offers a valuable resource for learning how to apply textbook knowledge to real life situations. You can also find on-demand tutoring in the Classroom, and don't forget that the Online Librarian, Tech Support, Counseling Center staff, and your Academic Counselor are also here to help.
Never hesitate to ask questions of your instructor, your peers or anyone else. The more information you gather, the better you will do in and out of the classroom. There are no bad questions—except for the ones you never ask.
Getting organized, managing your study time and asking for help when you need it can pave the way for you to succeed. Prioritize these skills and you can join the ranks of successful alumni who have earned a degree from South University!

The advent of online education has yielded benefits almost too numerous to name. It's now easier than ever to earn your degree while also working full-time or raising a family, or even when you don't live near an institution of higher learning. However, if you're attending classes from your living room or a coffee shop, it's also easier to be distracted. South University recognizes the difficulties inherent in earning a degree online and has compiled some of the best tips and tricks for staying focused on your coursework.
Tempting though it might seem to work from your couch or bed, you'll be more productive in a specially designated work space. Setting aside a work space reinforces the message that your coursework is important. What's more, an ergonomically correct work space can enable you to focus for even longer periods. When you're in your work space, focus only on work. If you don't have space in your residence, find a quiet coffee shop, public library or other space where you can work undisturbed for a good stretch of time. Establishing a space-related routine is almost as important as finding the space itself.
Much as you should designate a work space, so too should you set aside work time. Scheduling time for your courses and homework serves as a reminder that you're working toward your goals and need to dedicate appropriate time and effort to achieving them. Examine your current schedule to determine how much time you can budget for your courses and related activities. If possible, set aside smaller blocks of time each day rather than one large block of time per week. Meeting small goals (even like studying for one hour) is easier than tackling large ones.
If you think working non-stop is the way to get the most done, think again. Short breaks give your mind and body the much-needed chance to recharge. Once an hour, take a few minutes to get up, stretch, walk around, or check your email. Limiting web surfing to breaks makes the experience more enjoyable and helps you stay focused on the task at hand.
Don't be afraid to ask for help! Share your goals with your friends and family and let loved ones know what they can do to make your journey easier. Don't be afraid to ask for help! If having a TV on near you is distracting, let your spouse or kids know. If you tell yourself that you would finish that paper but you have to cook dinner, order a pizza. Most people will be glad to help, and their generosity will encourage your further success.
During your scheduled work time, do not respond to other requests or matters. Put your phone on silent (or turn it off), step back from Facebook, and let your family know that you won't be available for an hour or two. If necessary, hire a babysitter or ask a friend to watch your kids. Standing your ground will send the message—to yourself, your family, your friends and instructors—that you're invested in you.

I work full time and enjoy my days off. Enjoy watching sunsets, smelling the salty oceans, Grandchildren that give great hugs, watching my children become the best that they can be.
About the one I'm looking for...
Im looking for someone who wants to be a friend, loyal partner, honest, loving, caring, gentle and giving. Someone that is accepting and understanding.

I enjoy, going to the movies, dinner, listening to music. I have 7 grandchildren and enjoy spending time with them also. I have 1 cat, a large yard and enjoy spending time sitting and watching the sunset on my deck. I love to watch the birds and I feed many. My humming birds fly by me if their container is empty. I enjoy exercising but don't get to do it as much as in the past.

The 50 Worst States in America
American States, like Americans themselves, are fond of trumpeting their superlatives. To hear them tell it, they're all first in something: Corn growth, coal production, giant-est giant-ball-of-twine, blah, blah, blah. But something's not adding up, States: If you're all so great, how come the country's giving off the distinct odor of failure?
All of those A's you've been giving yourselves seem to add up to general malaise, from C to shining C—and that's with grade inflation. Clearly, you're cherrypicking your data and juking the stats. Which is why GQ took a true accounting of firsts (Louisiana: #1 in Syphilis!) and worsts (nobody does debt like Califor-ny-yay!), and ranked the states according to one common, leveling criterion: Shittiness. We proudly present, in order, the fifty worst states in America.

Do your parents or grandparents go into those major speeches about how when they were little they'd walk to school in six feet of snow without any shoes on and school was 25 miles away….
Do you have family like that?
My dad happens to be a great story teller and he has a dozen stories that involve walking to school in the snow, without any shoes on, while carrying his weight in books.
The reason I'm telling you this is because I probably sound like him when it comes to makeup. Remember when BE used to have glamorous Holiday Collections?
Remember the Classic Rock Collection? How about the Bare Gold Collection or the Pure Platinum one?
Those were the days….
Jump!Read More...
Ahh it sure has been a while since I hauled one of Bare Escentuals Brightening Mineral Veils.
I remember the first one I purchased, can't remember the actual name but it was a pink shimmer…we all know how I feel about shimmer.
For Holiday 2011, the new bareMinerals Brightening Pearl Mineral Veil is infused with genuine Honora Cultured pearls and coasts a pearlescent glow on skin.
The powder comes in a pink pearl, mirroed compact with a Buff & Go Brush for application.
Available now at Ulta.
Dunno about you but I'm about to start preparing to shop for the Holidays. I just want it done and out of my way so I can relax as the Holidays get closer…I hate waiting until the last minute to shop. So not a good idea.
If you're looking for a cheap yet expensive looking makeup gift for a friend who loves BE you might wanna check out their new Velvet Luxe Eye Collection!Read More...
I'm all about products that promise to brighten and whitening which is why I'm intrigued by the new bareMinerals Skincare Intensive Glow Pads Brightening Treatment.
The bareMinerals Skincare I've tried up until now has been quite good so I trust these new pads will be just as lovely.
Take a look!Read More...

Bloomberg set up campus interviews at our university and we were encouraged to apply. The initial screening was very prompt, with me receiving an invitation to interview with them within a week of application, a few days before the interview was to occur. The initial interview was with 2 software developers at Bloomberg and it was a basic technical interview. I was given a choice of language upon which the questions would be based; I chose Java. They asked me about some definitions (JVM and Java interface) and about how garbage collection worked. After that I had to write some code (not necessarily syntactically correct) to implement some things. First I had to implement a doubly linked list, then a method to reverse the order of the nodes. The last question was picking a letter than occurs once out of an array with letters with multiple instances. Overall the interview was quite professional. The interviewers were very friendly and made me feel quite comfortable.Interview Questions

In regard to the smocking portion of the show, I was very disappointed
in th e showing of the technique. It was not clear as to how she was creating the beautiful smocking. I downloaded the directions and was
still completely in the dark.. Please prepare another episode or more
detailed instructions that can be downloaded. I REALLY want to try
my hand at this
Thanks, . Pam Stone

my only problem with the program itself is they need to spend more time on a subject and show\explain more thoroughly to the viewers I liked the technique shown for the heirloom smocking however this type of needle point - sewing is a lost art because those that do know it wont or don't want to take the time to really teach and i certainly don't consider three min on one stitch when several was shown adequate for a teaching moment. my option it was a tease and I felt unthoughtful. it also left a bad taste in my mouth when I tried to replay it.... really and this is where u believe the tease comes into play $ 3.99 for a rerun, that three min walk of fame THAT NEVER DID and now wont DOWNLOAD again so I can view it; so I have yet to get to view this episode after paying there ransom for there something that broadcasted over PBS "a free public system operated with donations" the American way; great ideas but a lack of forethought as to how much crap can be shoved into thirty min. leaving viewers searching their heads then finding their check book!!!!!

Dear Tashmans,
Your Glazier, Greg, worked on a job for me last week and I have to say how helpful he was. He was open to my suggestions as to how we should tackle the job, which was a very unusual window fixture. His goal was the same as mine. Namely, to complete the job to the highest standard possible to satisfy my customer. He received my input as helpful advice and not criticism, when I inspected the job at the finish.Nothing was too much trouble. His experience and expertise as a Glazier was obvious, as well as his patience in finishing the window replacement to a very high standard.
Thank you for your firm's help in this matter. I will call on you again in future without hesitation and I will request that Greg be assigned to my job please. He is surely a great asset to your firm.
A couple months ago I decided I wanted a new sliding glass door on my condo. I contacted Tashman, they came and gave me a quote (great price) and we agreed to do the project. From phone calls to set up appointments, to installation, to project follow-through, Tashman Home Center was incredible. So much so that as soon as the sliding glass door was installed, I had them give me a quote on replacing all the windows in my unit. That project was just completed and AGAIN they offered Grade A service, craftsmanship and more.
Great competitive pricing. Excellent service. On time (even early!) for appointments . Committed to getting the project done right…not right now. Friendly. Knowledgeable. I highly recommend Tashman Home Center.
We were in need of screen doors for our new house and this place was the only Google hit. Even though we live in Westchester and Tashman's is in W Hollywood, Kenny came over on a Saturday (since we work during the week) to review the doors and provide suggestions. (Since we had just moved in, he also provided contact info for an excellent electrician who came out and did work as well!) We placed the door order that day and while it did take about 3 weeks for them to arrive, everything went perfectly! Once they arrived, Leslie called to schedule a time to have them installed. Conveniently we didn't even have to be home so when we did arrive home after work there they were – working great! LOVED our experience and cannot rave highly enough of Kenny & Leslie. They both went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and everything was scheduled around our availability. I recommend them to all my new home-owner friends!
I've always had a good experience with Tashman, going back to 2005. I live in a historic building in WeHo that has very stringent HOA rules, yet needed the windows revamped with new hardware. Kenny, my rep, was incredibly helpful, timely and made sure the job was done not only to the building specs but aesthetically pleasing as well. Nice. As a designer, I find myself often needing new door hardware. Lucia who handles doors, knobs and that sort of drek knows it all backward and forward. Sometimes a call back for a special order is a bit delayed, however all in all I'd say they offer pretty amazing service, personalized to the almost extinct level of a mom-and-pop shop. One happy camper. Aside from window and door paraphernalia, they also have saved me a trip to the dreaded dark depths of Home Depot for the random can of paint or nail. Yep, been there and will continue doing that. Well done Tashman.
I just wanted to send you a note letting you know just how good your guys are. I'm sure you know this, but I thought it would be good to hear from a sometimes difficult, demanding, perfectionist customer like myself. The quality of the work is outstanding. Rarely am I impressed, but the work was fantastic.You have a customer for life now and I will make sure and spread the word.
Thank you again.

Summary: No one writes about mountaineering and its attendant hardships and victories more brilliantly than Jon Krakauer. In this first collection of his finest work from such magazines as Outside and Smithsonian, Krakauer explores the subject from the unique and memorable perspective of one who has battled peaks like K2, Denali, Everest, and, of course, the Eiger. Always with a keen eye, an open heart, and a hunger for the ultimate experience, he gives us unerring portraits ...show moreof the mountaineering experience. Yet Eiger Dreams is more about people than about rock and ice - people with that odd, sometimes maniacal obsession with mountain summits that sets them apart from other men and women. Here we meet Adrian the Romanian, determined to be the first of his countrymen to solo Denali; John Gill, climber not of great mountains but of house-sized boulders so difficult to surmount that even demanding alpine climbs seem easy; and many more. In the most intimate piece, "The Devils Thumb," Krakauer recounts his own near-fatal, ultimately triumphant struggle with solo-madness as he scales Alaska's Devils Thumb. Eiger Dreams is stirring, vivid writing about one of the most compelling and dangerous of all human pursuits. ...show lessEdition/Copyright: 90

Posted Tuesday, May 22, 2012 --- 8:25 a.m.
LA CROSSE, Wis. (AP) -- Not guilty pleas have been entered for two men charged in the fatal shooting of a young La Crosse woman.
Nineteen-year-old Kong Vue and his 21-year-old uncle, Pao Choua Vue, are charged with party to first-degree intentional homicide in the death of 20-year-old Sara Hougom. Prosecutors say Kong Vue walked into her unlocked apartment to look for her purse, shot her when she moved on the couch and fled to a car driven by his uncle last March.
The two are also charged with party to attempted first-degree intentional homicide in a drive-by shooting in La Crosse shortly before Hougom was killed. The La Crosse Tribune (http://bit.ly/JNBZqP ) says Kong Vue pleaded not guilty. A judge entered the same pleas for his uncle who stood mute in court Monday.

Every once in a while, when I'm preaching the gospel of Dallas music to out-of-towners, some faraway friend asks about the band Doosu. That's odd for a few reasons, but the biggest one is that this outside-Dallas Doosu chat is more common than inside-Dallas Doosu chat. At least that was the case before the band posted a breakup notice on their Web site last month. Since the news, local lips have finally begun moving about the hard-rock outfit, which was never crazy enough to get a foothold in the hardcore scene led by Brutal Juice and Baboon and never pandering enough to crack any sort of mainstream market. Still, Doosu released a few records on local hard-rock label One Ton Records and grabbed a few choice opening gigs, including shows with the Toadies, A Perfect Circle and Porno for Pyros. Along the way, they built a small-but-dedicated fanbase and progressed nicely as a band, which is most obvious in their promising 2002 release, Feng Shui. Actually, "promising" no longer fits so well, and we're assuming recent developments within Doosu--including bassist Chad DeAtley's first son born in September and guitarist/singer Casey Hess' move to the Burden Brothers--accelerated the split. At their farewell concert at the Curtain Club on Saturday, Dallas fans have one last chance to say goodbye. So be a sport if you attend and hold up a cell phone for those faraway fans they've secured in the past 11 years.

The Lord Mayor of Dublin, Emer Costello, said that the Irish Government's immigration policy is blocking foreign students from attending college in Ireland.
Speaking at the international student gathering at Mansion House in Dublin, the Mayor said that over 40 per cent of applications from Chinese students are refused and 50 per cent of Turkish applications are turned down.
Britain currently approves over 95 per cent of Chinese applications and 90 per cent of all Turkish applicants. The vast majority of applicants were accepted by Irish colleges before the Irish government refused their student visas.
"While vigilance at our borders and entry points is essential, we should be able to develop a rational way of welcoming international students who have been accepted for entry into university and higher education courses," said Mayor Costello.
Most Irish colleges encourage applications from outside the European Union (EU). They are highly sought after as they pay massive student fees and are used by colleges to plug gaps in their annual budgets.
"International students from countries outside of the EU contribute over €500 ($732) million annually to the Irish economy. It's a growing and important market, and Dublin needs to get its share. Melbourne, a similar-sized city to Dublin, earns over €2 ($2.9) billion annually from the same market," continued Costello.
In 2004, a government report highlighted the international education sector as one of the fastest growing business sectors in the world. The report also said that Ireland had established a firm base and played an important role in the sector.
The Mayor said that the immigration process was making it more difficult for students to enter Ireland. It is believed that 15 jobs are supported for every 100 foreign students in Dublin.
The Mayor said that between the Dublin Institute of Technology and Trinity College in Dublin, international students support over 214 jobs and contribute more than $20 ($29.3) million to the local economy.

"When it comes to identity, users have historically been locked in a dance with the devil—our data in return for some subsidized service (search, email, whatever). Frankly, in the past it's been a raw deal, because the data has typically been working for advertisers, rather than for us. But smart designers are now turning this equation on its head, creating a raft of sexy, bespoke services that use our data to better reflect our identities in their products, and (if we so choose) share that data with the wider world. They are designing these services to be transparent, intuitive, and delightful. And they are pointing the way towards a future where sharing data is actually worth doing."

The federal government has poured billions of dollars into counterterrorism and homeland security since 9-11, including $1.8 billion in fiscal year 2010. A portion of that funding goes to local law enforcement agencies who have expanded their focus from local crime fighting to include counterterror priorities.
The post-9-11 focus on counterterror and homeland security has presented challenges to law enforcement, but it has also provided some crime-fighting benefits. The changes are analyzed in a new report from RAND Corporation titled Long-Term Effects of Law Enforcement's Post-9/11 Focus on Counterterrorism and Homeland Security. RAND senior policy researcher Lois Davis discussed the findings on Capitol Hill yesterday.
The research, supported by the National Institute of Justice, used five law enforcement agencies as case studies. The work included in-depth interviews with everyone from administrative workers to members of specialized response teams.
Although federal funds have rolled in for counterterrorism, many of the funds come with stipulations that prevent law enforcement agencies from spending the money on new personnel; instead, funds must be used for training and equipment. This means that departments have had to juggle personnel in order to create counterterror units and properly train officers in homeland security.
This limitation is particularly difficult when more local resources are required for homeland security. For example, study participant Miami-Dade Police Department used to assign two officers to Miami National Airport, but in the post-9-11 world, there are 40 officers assigned, Davis said at yesterday's presentation.
Additionally, the departments are dealing with more attrition and homeland security funds aren't authorized to replace officers. One commander the researchers interviewed stated, "I'd rather give back all of my toys to be able to have my people," Davis said.
Federal grant application, management, and reporting add additional work for departments and National Incident Management System training requirements also take time. It often takes up to two years to train someone to be effective in predictive policing and other counterterror abilities, according to Davis. The nature of police work is that personnel must keep changing jobs in order to advance, so an individual might transfer out of the counterterror unit just as he or she becomes effective, Davis noted. One interviewee said that his department spent $500,000 training one officer who was then transferred out.
Fusion centers were highlighted as an integral tool of law enforcement counterterror and homeland security efforts. The goal of fusion centers is to bring agencies together to provide resources and share information, maxmizing the ability to detect, investigate, and respond to terrorist activity. Fusion centers have encouraged collaboration across law enforcement agencies and enable information sharing.

A 48-year-old Eureka fugitive was arrested Monday night after police found him leaving an O Street residence in what is being investigated as a possible home-invasion robbery, the Eureka Police Department said.
Eureka Police officers were in the 500 block area of O Street at 8:15 p.m. on an unrelated investigation when they heard a woman screaming. Arnold Wayne Raymond was seen leaving the residence and fled after EPD officers contacted him. He was apprehended by Officer Travis Braud after a short foot pursuit.
As Raymond was being restrained, the female victim, who was covered in blood, staggered out of her home and fainted in the street. She had significant head cuts and was taken to St. Joseph Hospital, where she was treated and released.
EPD detectives are investigating the incident as a home-invasion robbery, with Raymond being the prime suspect at this time. He was booked into the Humboldt County Correctional Facility on parole fugitive warrants.
Whether Raymond harmed the victim and how he got in her home is under investigation, EPD spokeswoman Suzie Owsley said. Items taken in the robbery aren't being released to the public at this time.

London, United K...
After evaluating my wardrobe I came to the realisation that I didn't have a nice going out dress. Sure I have nice dresses, but usually dress it up with funky coloured tights. So I decided to make a lacey version of the Macaron dress.
I underlined the skirt, bodice and waistband with white cotton to preserve my modesty, and kept it sheer on the yoke. I finished the neck line and arm holes with black bias binding.
The pattern is so easy to follow, I love Colette for their beautiful packaging and clear instructions. I would definitely make this again though probably with a bigger waist – I think the pleats in the back give me a 'shelf bum'
I'm so pleased with the final product, the perfect excuse for a good old night out. Oh well….

Corey Clement impresses in debut
Corey Clement topped 100 yards in his Badgers debut Saturday against UMass. In doing so, he became the first true freshman to run for over 100 yards in his debut since the NCAA allowed freshman to play varsity football back in 1972.
"I was proud of the way he played" Gary Andersen said Monday.
Backfield mate Melvin Gordon agrees.
"He just brings a lot of energy."
Clement also scored a touchdown. It wasn't all good though, as the freshman fumbled late in the game; something Coach Andersen says is a "learning tool."
"It's easy to squeeze that ball on snap number one, but when it's snap number seven, and you're breathing hard, it's a lot harder to hang on to it."
Overall, a good start for Clement.

Liberating Iraq and Afghanisan is likely to to the most succssful US adventure since WWII.Grading Obama is easy:F
Click Here if you Like this Comment 8 persons like this.
Hey Ross, the American military WON in Iraq. Obama squandered all of the sacrifices made by the military and their families by failing to secure a status of forces agreement which would have prevented it from regressing backwards.Other than that, this article brilliantly spells out all of Obie´s foreign policy failure. Surprised it is in the NYT. Maybe this new editor is onto something but I doubt it.
Click Here if you Like this Comment 10 persons like this.
Ross still reflects the "It´s Bush´s fault" meme. Nice try, but Iraq toppled a brutal Dictator and freed the people. Until troops were pulled out. Iraq was successful.His predecessor's invasion of Iraq still looms as the largest American blunder of the post-Vietnam era. None of Obama's difficulties have rivaled that debacle. Has Ross looked around America lately to assess the war damage to our culture, our economy, our medical system and what´s left of our justice system? Nice try at moral equivalence.But the absence of an Iraq-scale fiasco is not identical to success, and history shouldn't grade this president on a curve set by Donald Rumsfeld.Gratuitous ad hominem attack. Desperate.The consuming Republican focus on Benghazi has tended to obscure the fact that post-Qaddafi Libya is generally a disaster area...Gratuitous blame on the GOP. Ross, I know you´re angry at your guy but don´t take it out on Bush, Rumsfeld, and the GOP. Your boy owns this foreign policy and this even worse domestic policy.The point of this litany is not to suggest that all of Obama's decisions have been misguided...Of course not, dear.In a world that's necessarily beyond an American president's control, even the wisest choices can lead to disappointing results.It wasn´t beyond Reagan´s control. And as for "wisest choices", your guy´s choices were not wise....if Obama's presidency ended today I have no idea what major foreign policy achievements his defenders could reasonably cite.Not to worry. They will make some up.There is still time for...the administration to brilliantly exploit Vladimir Putin's possible overreach, or seal a lasting nuclear deal with Iran, or craft a strategy to soothe the nationalisms gathering on the Indian subcontinent and the Pacific Rim.Is he serious about using "brilliant", Iran, and "nationalsims" in the same sentence as the man whose red Sharpie is already worn to a nub?

Beg to differ.The creature in the WH is exceeding his handlers expectations.He has released Jihadis across Africa to terrorize Christians.He has destroyed American banking, healthcare and is focusing on derailing American energy boom by CO2 admissions controls based on bogus science.DC is boomtown as Middle America is wiped out and government dependence on food and debt cards soars.Obama The Destroyer is the most successful anti America POTUS in history.Benghazi exposes the EVIL agenda and it is why he and Hilary and other Islamofascists in this Administration must be exposed and charged with treason.

ARLINGTON — Ashley Knoll's professional golf career has been quite the journey.Through wrist injuries, events on the Ladies European Tour and the LPGA's developmental tour, her résumé was a mixed bag until Wednesday.With a furious 5-under 31 at Rolling Hills Country Club, Knoll blew past leaders Emily Collins and Amber Hensley on the final nine holes to wrap up the Texas Women's Open title.It's Knoll's first professional win, and she did it in style with a bogey-free final-round 65 to finish the tournament 6-under par and collect $3,000."I didn't really feel like I played the back any different than the front nine," Knoll said. "It was just that I had more putts fall back here. And I had probably three birdie chances that I left out on the front nine, so it wasn't perfect."Perfection, though, wasn't needed.Knoll pulled within two shots of Hensley with birdies at Nos. 10 and 11 while Collins pulled into a share of the lead at the turn.Unaware of Knoll's stretch up ahead, Collins' bogey at the 10th dropped her back again, and she three-putted the par-5 11th after settling her second shot to about 18 feet for eagle.Hensley, who found trouble on the 11th, was able to salvage par and maintained a one-shot lead.Collins birdied the 12th to pull even again.But while the final pairing drama unfolded, Knoll was busy doing the damage.The Woodlands native, who played college golf at Texas A&M, hit a driver within 30 yards of No. 13 to collect another birdie and then hit a pitching wedge approach within inches of an eagle at No. 15.By that time, Knoll's game was on full throttle as she seized the lead and put it out of reach with a bit of luck on her tee shot at No. 17."I hit driver, but I hooked it left," she said. "All I was saying was hit a tree or something, and it did and jumped forward in front of the bunker."The ball bounded back into the fairway after rapidly approaching the out-of-bounds stakes.From there, Knoll hit her wedge approach to 12 feet and dropped in her fifth birdie coming in."I didn't really think about having a chance to win until No. 13, when I made a nice putt for par," Knoll said. "Then I was just trying to keep focused on my game and not worry too much about what was happening in my group or behind me."Knoll matched her personal-best tournament round of 65."I really just tried to focus on a few keys, staying tall, taking deep breaths and thinking about where I want the ball to go," Knoll said. "I didn't have a number in mind, but if I could beat my personal best, I figured that might put some pressure on the leaders."

great shorting opportunity
Erratic, gamed, speculated day traded oil play. Down half from recent highs, but still spikes 15-30% on a whim.
The recent 1:10 reverse split makes a pretty low float, increasing potential gyrations.
Not one to hold, but one to repeat, wash, rinse, repeat....
May 2014 pitch.
Overall, however, Zaza is not Zazzling or Dazzling, it is trading oil concession for a pair of wells, refinancing constantly, including converting $47.3M of subordinate notes that their CEO and two directors owned, into 3.8M shares, and Preferred stock with a 13% dividend.
I don't like companies with financing deals with directors and CEO's. Maybe they have some nice acreage, In East Texas and South Texas and have Sabine pulling some heavy lifting on two wells, but the company is no where near stable enough for a $73M market cap with $3M in revenue a quarter, $6M in costs, $10M in cash and $89.5M of debt with $13.5M current, an OPEN SHELF registration for $150M that can be exercised anytime, creating a flood of new shares, the share price of Zaza isn't going anywhere other than sporadic spurts that will be sold into.
Razzle, Dazzle, trade, sell, barter land, wells, with your CEO and directors....whose going to get anything if they make it....?? Not share holders.
No book value. No earnings and no cash flow.
Crashing and still has high valuations. Worth shorting.
What did one snowman say to the other snowman?
TSIF does a very nice job summarizing the red thumb case for Zaza here:
I wanted to add a few items that I am seeing, as well. Someone may have already touched on this and if they have, my apologies. I noticed this was created from a reverse merger of two firms:
"On February 21, 2012, we consummated the combination (the Combination) of ZaZa LLC and Toreador, on the terms set forth in the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Contribution, dated August 9, 2011, and as subsequently amended (as amended, the ?Merger Agreement). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (i) a wholly-owned subsidiary of ZaZa merged with and into Toreador (the ?Merger), with Toreador continuing as a surviving entity, (ii) the three former members of ZaZa LLC (the ZaZa LLC Members?), holding 100% of the limited liability company interests in ZaZa LLC, directly and indirectly contributed all of such interests to ZaZa (the Contribution), and (iii) the holders of certain profits interests in ZaZa LLC contributed 100% of such interests to ZaZa (the Profits Interests Contribution). Upon the consummation of the Combination, Toreador and ZaZa LLC became our wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Combination was treated as a reverse merger under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with GAAP. For accounting purposes, ZaZa LLC is considered to have acquired Toreador in the Combination. Under the purchase method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of Toreador were recorded at their respective fair values and added to those of ZaZa LLC in our financial statements."
I really dislike reverse mergers as a general rule, but I do recognize some of them can be legit. It looks like at one point Zaza had a good deal going on with Hess.
"After the termination of the Hess joint venture and the disposition of its French oil and gas properties, ZaZa's principal assets were approximately 66,000 net acres in the Eagle Ford core and approximately 89,000 net acres in the Eaglebine. The Company's strategic objectives since then have focused on executing drilling operations to further appraise its acreage and evaluating joint venture opportunities to realize its development. Since the dissolution of the Hess joint ventures, ZaZa has drilled two wells in the Eaglebine and one well in the Eagle Ford and has entered into the joint venture with EOG Resources, Inc. described below."
So then Hess made a $84MM payment to the company and the relationship was dissolved. Since July 2012, it looks like they have done very little drilling (I only see 3 wells total). They have limited cash and assets, and have run up quite a large accumulated deficit. Cash is running at a very thin at $15MM (with other cash being restricted) and they continue to burn free cash at an alarming rate (about $80MM burned in 2013). I personally don't think they will survive the next 12-24 months, but let's see how it plays out.
Big fat IHS
bad management
Finished merger and will benefit from southern Keystone pipeline, should head for $6.
Losing money
These folks have competed successfully in the Paris Basin land grab and become one of a few contenders in the "European Bakken" play. If predictions about the amount of oil in the Paris Basin shale pan out, than it's just a matter of time before horizontal fracture techniques being used in the U.S. to great success begin to bear fruit across the pond. This stock could sky-rocket on news of killer IP rates.
TRGL is my strongest bet for the next couple of years.
Good management, controlled costs, reduced debt, stable convencional oil reserves and great JV with Hess on unconvencional shale oil in the Paris Basin. This stock, at this price, around 6$, will be life changing on a strong investment
The Hook:
The Hess partnership agreement is a significant endorsement of the potential of the Paris Basin oil shale
play. The agreement should provide considerable technical resources and expertise for the exploitation program. This may be seen as a major step forward for the company.
The Line:
The farm-in deal implies a value of US$9.90/sh for Toreador's exploration acreage, before success fees, providing a support level some 14% above the current share price. Should the oil-shale exploitation program in the Paris Basin prove successful we believe there is
considerable upside potential beyond this level and calculate an unrisked upside NAV of over
The Sinker:
Volume is up big in the last few days but the stock price has not moved.
Now, something else - Toreador has been picked by a number of high-score CAPS members -- yet, these people seem to have bought too early (stock didn't beat the market, so they have a negative score). So the short term play on this stock has made it a better VALUE PLAY irrespective of the recent Hess news. In short NOW is a very, very good time to get in on this.
i have faith it's going to blw the top off when it finally blows wait and see
Oil find under Paris France
Own 700,000 sq acres of oil leases in Paris, France - with billions of barrels of oil - right in the middle of Europe - this is gonna be HUGE!!!
No way but up
Hype effect from publicity about horizontal drilling under the Eiffel Tower? Hmmm. Price might be skewed right now.
