Are You Working in an "Appreciative Culture"?
Aubrey Daniels, in "Back to School Lessons for the Workplace," explains how back to school lessons for students are equally important in our workplaces. How many of these behaviors are practiced where you work? What if you took the lead to try them?

Preparations are in full swing for my return to the hell hole that is my current place of employ.
FUN FACT: I started working at this place from it's inception when I was 18. And I keep going back. More fool me.
Fat clothes have been purchased.
Lists written.
Schools notified that I will not be available and of COURSE they need me to keep Boo home or pick him up early each fucking day of work. Hellz to the no. Z snap.
Haircut obtained and despised. As always.
My Daddy on standby for emergency babysitting and summer holiday shenanigans with the Booster.
Christmas planned and ALMOST finished. Three more gifts to purchase, for the HARDEST TO BUY FOR PEOPLE – my brother, sister-in-love and Da Boyfriend.
And now, the most difficult decision and acquisition… a new work coffee cup.
It needs to be sturdy, but cute.
Reflect my personality but no swears.
Able to withstand week old coffee stagnating cause I got called out in a rush to some fucking emergency and I forgot to rinse my cup and no fucker thought to rinse it for me.
FUN FACT: When Boo broke his arm and I rushed to school to take him to the hospital, I left a thermos of milky latte on my desk. TWO WEEKS LATER when I returned it was still there and smelt to high heaven and not one person had done anything about it. Despite the fact that they could smell it too. True story.
So I am on the hunt for the perfect coffee cup to keep me sane in the torture chamber full of fuckwits and arseholes that is my workplace.
oooh nice!
Unless the coffee machine is broken/removed/replaced with nescafe instant cause then I will be buying takeaway coffee.
And I need some bling for my desk. Like a disco ball or glittery mousepad.
You know, shiny to distract me from the bitches.

TLS was something I never could get working. I don't know if there is a PHP extension for TLS, but there is for SSL, so that's what I went with.
1. Enable SSL with PHP
Start with the WAMP control panel in the system tray, like so:
Then look for this line in php.ini and delete the semi-colon for open_ssl.dll, commenting the line in, as shown below:
Go back into the control panel and select "Restart All Services" to make PHP pickup the change.
Your PHP should now be configured for SSL, and now all you have to do is use the right SMTP settings, and you're all set!
2. Use These SMTP Settings For Gmail
User Name: email@example.com*
Password: [your password]
Server: smtp.gmail.com
Port: 465
Encryption: SSL
*NOTE: If you are using Gmail with a custom domain, use "firstname.lastname@example.com" for the user name, or whatever the contact email for your domain is. If' it's just a plain Gmail account, use your gmail acount.
3. Try A Test Email
Did it work? If not, for MyBB, go into the admin system under Tools And Maintenance-->System Mail Log to look for any errors that would give you a clue as to where you went wrong. The hardest part for me in this process was figuring out how to enable SSL for PHP. That, and I had to use the TLS port of 465, which is one of Gmail's quirks.

I know with all the abundance of cold weather and strange snowstorms it does not seem right to start talking about summer... I mean helllloooo where is spring!? But with summer around the bend I had to do a post about some of mu summer essentials (don't worry the self tanner is only until summer really begins)
1. Essie Essie Essie. I can't praise this nail polish enough. It's my go to polish not only for the color but the consistency and how well it stays on. It's a little expensive but oh so worth it. Once I went Essie, I just couldn't go back. My two top colors are ballet slippers (which for the summer I like more as an "accent" color because it tends to look super white and for summer- I want a little color. Then the other that is to die for is eternal optimist a simple pink that pops but isn't neon. Perfect, it gives a fun color but a more mature edge.
2. Baby Lips. I can't praise this chapstick enough. It gives you the edge of lipgloss but all the nutrients of chapstick. It's a summer go to. Whatever other chapstick your using.... put it down seriously and try this you won't regret it. Did I mention it's the only chapstick I have actually finished til the end!? I was so protective of knowing where it was at all times I never once lost it.
3. Jergens Natural Glow. Now before you bring out the pitchfork and the fire calm yourself down... I know, I know self tanner.... orange who wants that. I was super super skeptical but I promise this is the best self tanner possible out there and the price is just as magical. In the summer I work at the beach so a tan isn't that big of an issue and I think I speak for most girls when I say that a little glow makes me feel a whole lot prettier. I wanted that glow and seeing as work is a whole month and some days away I needed self tanner because tanning beds just aren't my medicine right now. I suggest the three days to glow lotion and then for your face this. I like the product and am happy with the turn out but I will say I don't think it's for everyone but that doesn't devalue the product.
4. Skin Conditioning Oils. It's a smaller bottle so I recently haven't tried using it on my legs after I shave which let's be honest feels amazing (but I also shave with oils... but that's for a later post hehe) anyway I use this stuff on my hands and the result is amazing. I have smooth hands and arms that basically lead me to wanting to touch everyone with my hands.... good perk or bad perk all depends hahah. For my skin it feels like that long glass of water you need after a day in the sun or a exercising. We shouldn't deny our skin that water either.
5. Crest 3D White Mouthwash. This might just be my favorite mouthwash, and while I like what they do I have never been a fan. The best part about this mouthwash isn't even the double dose of whitening power along with my whitening toothpaste, it's the fact it's alcohol burn free. That's always been the killer part of mouthwash for me the burn makes my eyes water, I feel sick after it, so basically I have to plan my whole schedule around my mouthwash so I know I have time to calm down after I take it and start to feel sick. Who needs that and who has the time!?!? My friend used this and on an effort to get my body healthier and a happier me.... I picked up some. I needed mouthwash and this one was calling my name and I can honestly say I haven't been happier since. The mouthwash now still has a bit of a kick to it but no burn. Amazing!
Well these are my summer essentials! Not to mention these things make for a perrrrfeccctttt gift! Leave a comment below if you'd be interesting in ordering something Arbonne (doesn't even have to be what is mentioned in this post) please leave a comment and I can get back to you right away!

Four fun things
1. Colouring in.
Here is a website with lots of kiddie pictures to print out as well some beautiful mandalas. The word mandala means circle which symbolises wholeness. They can be a lovely meditative activity for me depending how long my children sit still for! Superhero pictures are a winner for Master 5.
2. Playgrounds and Parks.
I love a new playground or park to explore. I especially love it when we are in a sleepy, little country town and we have it all to ourselves.
I like to test out the equipment to see if it's appropriate.
I like the mini rock-climbing walls, well not too mini, I mean the ones that are on the 'big kids' playgrounds.
Mmm, fresh air and energy that makes me feel alive! It's all good.
Except the sunburn.
And sometimes the bugs.
And when it's windy I tend to get frazzled for no particular reason.
But for now I'll choose to focus on rugging up for a play on a calm and crisp Winter's day. :-)
3. Playing music.
Not just any music but music that makes you feel good! I like to play music that makes me want to MOVE! My taste in music is not very 'cool', it never has been and it never will be, but it does make me smile.
Does the music you listen to with your kids make you smile?
Or want to dance?
Singing the "Small Potatoes' theme song makes me smile.
50's and 60's rock and roll makes me want to move. Me, the kids and my Mum had a 60's Cliff Richard disco on the weekend. The four of us were all laughing, busting some new moves and having a wonderful time to the likes of "Do you wanna dance?" and "Dancing shoes". I love those old film clips too,
Cliff with a quiff is pretty cute.
Did I just say that out loud?
What about Tribal drum beats? Dance music?
We can't get enough of Renee and Jeremy's happy tunes. www.reneeandjeremy.com
My kids end up loving what I love so, lyrics approved, it's a win-win.
4. Affirmation cards.
www.nurturecards.com.au are the ones we use and love. They have sweet, simple drawings and a positive affirmation to read aloud with the kids. They are produced by an Aussie Mum with a heart for building kids up with happiness, self confidence, self esteem and self love.
There are different ways to use affirmation cards and at the moment we like to shuffle them in the morning and see what card we get. The card's affirmation presents us with an opportunity for conversation that may otherwise not come up. The card may also provide some insight into something we may need to work on. Sometimes reading the affirmation is easy and it feels right. It is a truth that we understand and believe about ourselves. Sometimes the affirmation feels foreign or embarrassing or impossible.
For the last four days I have chosen a card which says, "I am proud of myself and all that I can do." Apparently I haven't 'got it' just yet, maybe when I do I will pull out a different card?! They are so beautiful and they make me happy. I haven't had a chance to play them today so I will do that now.
PS. Do you like our new rope ladder? Master 5 received it for his birthday.
It won't hold my weight unfortunately.

Hey Alison, We had a lovely time colouring in yesterday arvo. R coloured two Mandalas - a bug one and a car one :) and then cut them out himself and stuck them onto a coloured piece of paper. While he was doing that I also coloured in a Mandala of my choice :) What a great website! I've stuck it in my favourites. Colouring for grown ups is great :) Thanks!
28/6/2012 09:08:04 am
Hehe, it is really nice isn't it, I loved it as a child. I still have a few of my colouring books from upper primary.

I Will Thank You Forever
While we wait on the Lord for the needed breakthrough, let's join the Psalmist who, in the middle of the evil perpetrated against him by Saul and Doeg the Edomite, declared:
"I will thank You forever,
because You have done it.
I will wait for Your name, for it is good,
in the presence of the godly"
(Psalm 52:9 ESV)
Over the years, I have learnt that thanksgiving, worship and gratitude in the face of the storm pleases God and moves His hand in our favour. I urge you to look forward to the week ahead with positive expectation because the Lord has done it, whatever the challenge.
Wait for Him; don't fight in your own strength. No, don't. Wait. And while you wait, be thankful. He will come through for you. He will come through for me. I believe.
What about you?

Tonight I spent…
Posted March 23, 2011on:
… some time w/ my daughter. Just the two of us. Every third Tues of the month, the Prince has a teen mtg called young men/young women @ church for the youth ages 12 – 18. Since we live so far out of town it's better for whoever takes him to just wait the 1 1/2 hrs until it's over rather than waist the gas. Usually Hubby does the honors while I get to have quiet time w/ the princess.
Tonight we painted birdhouses (I'll have to take pix) but didn't finish. This works out great because tomorrow is boy scouts (different place further in town) so we'll have the house to ourselves.
Tonight I listened & hummed along w/ my daughter while she sang. Mostly I just listened. I love knowing that she was happy & content enough to sing for me. She sang Taylor Swift mostly! Gotta love that girl (mine & Taylor). Nice to have someone sing things I don't feel I need to sensor for either of us.
I loved this night & I'm looking forward to tomorrow night too. Maybe we'll sing Primary songs (church songs for children) tomorrow.
6 Responses to "Tonight I spent…"
That sounds like a great Mommy/Daughter date.
Sounds like a perfect night! I love Taylor Swift, such a great role model for young girls!
That sounds great! I love spending alone time with my girl.
Sounds like you two had a great night. A good time to make memories that last forever. She'll tell her daughter about her time spent with her Mom.
love it..
Sometimes I really miss when my kids were younger. I'm so glad you had a good night with your girl..you deserve it. xoxo

Coober Pedy, Way Down Under
Coober Pedy is a town in northern South Australia, 846 kilometers north of Adelaide, on the Stuart Highway. According to the 2011 census, its population was 1,695, and is the "Opal Capital of the World".
The first piece of opal, found in 1915, and has been drawing thousands ever since. It is also one of the hottest places in Australia, with temps between 45 to 52 Celsius (122 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit) in the summer, explains why 80% of the population lives underground.
This is a town that has stayed with me since my visit at 12 years old. So when I looked for new camping options, for myself, and my son (currently 12) I googled fabulous places to camp, and found that Coober Pedy now has underground camping! I thought what a fabulously unique, and memorable experience that would be, and we were not disappointed.
We stayed at "Riba's Caravan Park", about 4 kms before you reach the main town of Coober Pedy. It was fabulous, and handmade by our wonderful hosts at Riba's, Rick and his wife. It is the only underground campsite in the world!
It has hot showers, a big kitchen area, and a wi-fi lounge area, making it extremely popular with overseas tourists too.
We spent our time playing board games and digging for opals! We weren't disappointed either, as we found 4-5 little opals. Next time (yes, there will be a next time) we will take picks and shovels. While we were there another camper found a piece worth $10,000 and sold it to a mine in town.
If you are patient and don't mind a bit of dust (actually a lot of dust) make sure to come visit, and stay at Riba's Caravan Park, the best place in town! The surrounding landscape is uniquely beautiful with red desert stretching for miles, and sunrises and sunsets to die for.
Sometimes the simplest adventures turn out to be the best!

The following quotes are all from Chapter 7: "The Role of Theories."
Theories are never correct, and in the case of the social sciences they tend to be almost always wrong. The question is, therefore, not whether they are right or wrong, but whether they are wrong in a way that invalidates the conclusions drawn from them. In other ways, theories are tools for reasoning and rhetorical devices.The last standpoint I think is more or less common among great Israeli theorists such as Bob Aumann and Ariel Rubinstein. In a later part, Gilboa also says as follows:
Recall that we are not hoping to obtain theories that are very accurate. We use the theories more often as reasoning aids.Then, the author further offers philosophical argument on science, referring the key thinkers such as Friedman, Popper, and Kuhn.
It follows that the degree to which we are willing to accept an assumption does not need to be a monotone function of its degree of accuracy. The assumption is tested based not only on its direct implications, but also on its indirect implications, which may involve nontrivial theorems.
The preceding discussion brings to mind Friedman's celebrated argument that theories should not be judged based on the validity of their assumptions, but on that of their conclusions. This argument is a bit extreme, and I would be careful to accept it (because of the following two reasons).
1) It is generally hard to draw a sharp distinction between assumptions and conclusions, completely ignoring the veracity of the former and testing only the latter.
2) Justifiably or not, it (= Friedman's argument) has become a bit of an excuse not to question the theory.
The logical positivist heritage (coupled with Popper's contribution) suggests that our theories should be falsifiable. The axiomatization we saw earlier is formulated in terms of conditions that can be violated. However, a theory such as utility maximization is not always easy to falsify. [...] Only in carefully designed controlled experiments can one hope to unambiguously refute a theory, but then one faces questions of external validity: the fact that a theory fails in artificial experimental environment may not be an indication that it will also fail in natural environment, to which it was presumably intended in the first place.
It started with Kuhn (1962), who asked questions about scientific paradigms and the way they changed. Kuhn described scientific evolution as a social phenomenon that need not converge to any objective truth. Rather, it was a process involving many factors, including accumulating evidence on the one hand, but also personal interests and tastes on the other.
The postmodern critique sometimes appears to confound descriptive and normative claims. It may well be true that science will never be able to be completely objective. But this does not mean that is shouldn't try. [...] There are instances of postmodern critique that sound to me similar to the argument, "We know that wars are inevitable. Hence, let's start shooting people."

My View
By Don Sorchych | April 7, 2010
Tea Party rocks
Cave Creek/Carefree courts
I had high hopes for the Tea Party to be held at the Carefree Resort and Villas on March 27 that John McCain, Sarah Palin and J.D. Hayworth would be there. Imagine the fireworks!
Sadly, none of them were there to speak although Hayworth showed up for the barbeque that followed the presentations.
Disappointments ran deeper as it became apparent that it became a GOB affair with Huber Stevens as co-sponsor, vanquished ex-Vice Mayor Lloyd Meyers at the organ, scatterings of the GOB faithful throughout the audience and even a speaker with GOB credentials.
Stevens showed his lack of class with a commercial spiel about where his "office" is, as if anyone cared.
As for the council quitter, Meyers, view this letter sent to J.D. Hayworth:
J.D. Hayworth
Candidate for U.S. Senate
Dear Mr. Hayworth,
Don Sorchych, who publishes a failing tabloid in Cave Creek, stated in his last non print edition that you publicly expressed your appreciation for him during a March 4 event sponsored by an organization using the name "Republican Professionals," put together by Ryan Ducharme who is described as its National President & Co-Founder. Messrs. Sorchych and Ducharme are well known in our area, having most recently participated in a failed attempt to recall Carefree Mayor David Schwan after only 26 days in office. Mayor Schwan, a retired business executive of 40 years with the Ford Motor Company, has an exemplary record of volunteer service to our community, and the recall was soundly rejected by our citizens. This was a clear abuse of the recall process, as confirmed by the Editorial Board of the Arizona Republic and League of Arizona Cities and Towns, and cost our town thousands of dollars.
Mr. Ducharme's previous foray into our town, again supported by Mr. Sorchych, was to head an extensive campaign in an effort to elect the infamous David Burnell Smith to our Town Council. Mr. Smith, as you may recall, distinguished himself as the first legislator in the nation to be removed from office for breaking state public campaign finance laws as upheld by the Arizona Supreme Court. Mr. Ducharme, of course, failed in that effort as well. It will be interesting to the voters in our community why you have aligned yourself with Chandler resident Ducharme and Cave Creek resident Sorchych, in their assaults on our community, and why you would headline an event that honors their conduct with what was described as a "Patriot Award."
The Republicans were fond of raising the old cliché "you are known by the company you keep," when trying to draw similarities between President Obama and his spiritual advisor, Jeremiah Wright and others. Well, Mr. Hayworth, it works both ways. Our citizens have rejected the kind of civic irresponsibility and lack of ethics represented by your associates, and will reject you and your "Republican Professionals" as well.
Please remove my name from your solicitation efforts.
Lloyd Meyer
And there you have it. I am proud of the award presented by Ryan Ducharme and the reported commentary from Hayworth and of the demonstration by a GOB of his petty ways. It is Meyers who has demonstrated his hatred for Carefree voters who rejected him in a primary vote, not this newspaper.
But the Tea Party, except for GOBs already noted, was a patriotic event. The signs were awesome, the audience spontaneously vocal for the good old USA!
A necessary dilution was the active politicians seeking their petitions to be signed while their agents passed out flyers on their behalf.
Big thanks to Arch McGill for organizing the event and kudos to the Carefree Resort for their good citizenship and generosity.
Court cost reduction?
The idea of combining Cave Creek and Carefree courts has been around for awhile.
Carefree Councilmen Bob Coady and Peter Koteas had a head of steam until Mayor David Schwan torpedoed their efforts by keeping records from them even though any person has a right under open records statutes.
It is clear now that GOBs' claim of fiscal stability in Carefree was a huge lie, but necessary in their minds to keep Schwan in office.
Schwan said as much in a meeting with Cave Creek officials. His plea for financial help was so loud and clear that Town Manager Usama Abujbarah broke ranks with Mayor Vincent Francia by agreeing to continued discussions. Francia made it clear from the outset he was against the idea.
Not only that, but Abujbarah even agreed to a change of venue to have a joint council meeting in Carefree even though it had already been set in Cave Creek. Carefree wanted to show the Cave Creek council the splendor of their court facilities, which is one of their financial problems by the way.
The Carefree offer is totally self serving and will never be approved by Cave Creek. Carefree wants the court in their present location and apparently with their employees.
I believe citizens of each town will object to a location not in their town.
The cost problem relates to the court system itself. The court insists each court be open 40 hours each week. Has anyone asked the court for approval of limited hours?
Cave Creek has two full time employees, while Carefree has four.
Who is kept and who goes? Remember that there could be lingering animosity. Carefree Court Administrator Adrianne Larson was terminated by Cave Creek, filed a suit and collected $45,000 from the town.
Remember former Carefree Mayor Bob Anderson getting a magistrate appointment from the Carefree council over the objections of their own attorney and the court? The outcome was a disaster and he was removed. The same mentality of appointing friends and good old boys remains.
If the courts were combined it makes more sense to retain Cave Creek's competent judge, staff and prosecutor. It is already near break even while Carefree's court is one of their major financial issues along with their funding of an expensive fire department.
I don't think Cave Creek citizens would object but I am sure Carefree citizens would even though 95 percent of those served by the Carefree court live in other municipalities.

Tuesday, August 14thBlue Square Bet Premier DivisionAlfreton Town v Southportat The Impact ArenaKick-off: 7.45pm
Alfreton Town have their first home league game of the new season on Tuesday evening when Southport are the visitors to the Impact Arena for a Blue Square Bet Premier Division fixture.
Ironically, the Sandgrounders also provided the opposition for last season's first home outing in the Conference Premier Division and a very closely-contested game finished goalless in front of 777, also in the second game of the campaign.
Both sides go into the fixture seeking their first win of the game, the Reds after very unluckily going down 1-0 at Stockport County in the season's opener on Saturday and Liam Watson's Southport after snatching a 1-1 draw at home with Grimsby Town thanks to a late equaliser by Simon Grand.
Reds boss Nicky Law has no injury or suspension problems to contend with.
Visiting fansSouthport fans are requested to enter the stadium via the away turnstiles at the Alma Street end of the ground.Admission for visiting fans is £18 for adults and £12 for concessions unless Early Bird Match Tickets have been applied for (see here ).

Background EditEdit
He is the younger brother of Lord Garmadon whom he defeated in battle over the four golden weapons of Spinjitzu. After defeating his brother, he hid each of the weapons and had a dragon of the corresponding element guard each one. He then created a map and gave it to Kai's father to safe guard for him in case he died before the weapons required collecting. He can be harsh on his students but when it comes down to it Sensei Wu is just about the bravest warrior there is. He was defeated by Samukai who thus collected all four golden weapons creating a portal in Lord Garmadon's throne room. Garmadon escaped through the portal claiming that he would soon return.
Notes EditEdit
- The black robed Sensei Wu could possibly could be the DX variation.
- In LEGO Ninjago: The Movie, he never wore black robes.
- He appeared with black robes in LEGO Battles: Ninjago.
- He is voiced by Paul Dobson, who did the voice for Whenua in the second and third BIONICLE movies.
- Sensei Wu's black robes have symbols that protect him from evil. They aided him in defeating Lord Garmadon.
- He has a nephew, Lloyd Garmadon.
- If his nephew's full name is Lloyd Garmadon (meaning Lloyd is his first name and Garmadon is his last), this could possibly mean Sensei Wu's full name is Wu Garmadon.

We are looking forward to another year of bringing together the industry's best and brightest to network, share and learn about the latest strategies that are shaping the future of supply chain and how new advances can help change their business.
Oslo, Norway (PRWEB) April 29, 2015
Blue Ridge, a provider of supply chain planning solutions that enable retail and distribution companies to increase revenue with improved inventory performance, today announced that its 7th annual BLUEPrint Nordics Conference will be held at Losby Gods in Oslo, Norway, June 1-3, 2015. This year's conference brings together progressive retail and distribution executives for networking and an in depth look at the future of supply chain technology, planning and analytics.
The three-day event offers best practice sessions, round-table discussions and industry leading guest speakers. Keynote speaker, Norwegian skier and multiple Paralympic gold medalist, Cato Zahl Pederson, will share his inspiring story to kick off this year's event at the Losby Gods Resort. CEO of Blue Ridge Global, Greg White, will also give attendees his perspective on the state of supply chain planning and how the cloud is driving precision and speed in responding to changing inventory demands.
Throughout the conference, leading European companies including Bilglassruppen AS, Cervera AB, Rema Distrubujon AS and Panorama Gruppen AS will present success stories. Executives from these companies will share firsthand experiences around integrated supply chain planning and how thinking outside of the box with supply chain analytics has helped them manage inventory and remain competitive, all while providing superior customer service levels and increased profitability.
"Many supply chain solutions, approaches and strategies that once worked are struggling to keep up with today's market," said Greg White, CEO of Blue Ridge. "We are looking forward to another year of bringing together the industry's best and brightest to network, share knowledge, and learn about the latest strategies that are shaping the future of supply chain and how new advances can help change their business for the better."

About Blue Ridge
For progressive retail and distribution companies, Blue Ridge's supply chain management planning solutions dramatically improve the ability to increase revenue and deliver superior customer experiences.

Yep, I'm *that* mom. Which one might that be? Oh it's different on any given day. Sometimes I'm the granola crunchy hippy mom... sometimes I'm the mom that wonders if mimosas with breakfast are an okay way to start the day... and all too often I'm the mom who doesn't remember the last time she got to shower.

Raspberries, Coffee & Self Care
Our raspberries are exploding right now. Each morning, there's a good sized bowl to pick. With a toddler who loves to eat sticks, grass, and pretty much anything that grows, raspberries are a pretty exciting discovery... a food that he can eat without anyone arguing, plus they taste way better than most sticks. It's become our morning ritual. Coffee and raspberry picking, barefoot and bleary eyed. It grounds me. It helps wake up my tired body and soul.
When the nights are not anywhere near as restful as I need them to be and the mornings much earlier and much louder than I want them to be, the entire waking up process is jarring. Often all I can do is grumble (to myself or sometimes not so much to myself) about needing more sleep and dread the long list of everyday life stuff before me while complaining that the kids won't let drink a single cup of coffee. It's not a good start to the day. I'd love to wake up before my kids, have some quiet moments with a cup of coffee, and take a deep breath before I start the day. But the baby wakes when I do, regardless of the time, so that will have to wait a bit longer. In the meantime, stumbling outside into the garden is the next best thing.
Outside, I can breathe. There's space. Everything isn't so loud. Everyone isn't so close. The grass tickles my feet, the baby picks berries, and the big kids march off to check the wild black raspberry bushes in the woods nearby. I wake up gentler and without the suffocating to do list that lives inside the house, the messes to be cleaned, the food to be prepped, the laundry, the projects, the bills.
Picking those raspberries has become a quiet meditation. It's a simple task. One that has to get done or we will lose the fruit. It doesn't take too long, but long enough. Pick, squat, reach, nibble a few. And, it feels like I've accomplished something when it's done. Something checked off my list before breakfast. Food provided for my family. A few set aside for snack, although mostly the kids pick for themselves what they want to eat fresh. The rest get frozen for snacks and smoothies through the year.
It's choices like this and moments like these that I'm focusing on this month. It's a continuation of #operationthrive. It's a month of me. It's ongoing self care. It's little shifts in perspective to let the light in, to make it easier to breathe. Happy July.

Natixis Asset Management – a fervent supporter of responsible initiatives
Natixis Asset Management is actively involved in encouraging issuers to improve their environmental, social and governance practices (ESG) as part of its ambitious and extensive CSR policy. This active approach is reflected in the company's support for a number of issues and in particular investor initiatives on specific areas that target issuers exposed to significant risks and challenges.
Natixis Asset Management is now lending its support to three new programs:
"Collaborative Engagement On Corporate Tax Responsibility"
Companies' abusive tax strategies are a source of hefty losses for countries and their inhabitants, and can also have negative effects for the companies themselves in both financial and reputational terms. This initiative aims to promote corporate transparency in areas such as tax policy, governance and financial reporting, and encourage companies to develop responsible tax strategies.
"Deforestation in Cattle Supply Chains Investor Statement and Working Group"
Natixis Asset Management has joined forced with other investors to fight against deforestation in the agricultural sector and particularly in livestock farming. Agriculture is a major cause of deforestation worldwide and this initiative seeks to encourage greater transparency from companies in their management of environmental impacts and calls on them to commit to the fight against deforestation and the violation of human rights across their supply chains.
"Global Investor Statement on Antibiotic Use"
This third Natixis Asset Management initiative attests to investors' broad support for policies encouraging the responsible use of antibiotics in livestock farming, which has become more industrialized leading to widespread use of antibiotics for non-medical use. This issue is recognized by the WHO as a major threat as it promotes the development of drug-resistant bacteria.
These initiatives further testify to Natixis Asset Management's commitment to using its influence for the greater good, supporting issuers as they improve their responsible practices and thereby generating long-term value for investors.

Health & Medicine
Heart failure is a serious chronic illness that can be managed
Heart failure currently affects 5.7 million Americans and causes 55,000 deaths each year in the United States. Heart failure is a serious chronic illness where the heart does not pump the blood as efficiently as it should. The heart continues to beat but pumps less nutrient and oxygen-rich blood to the rest of the body. As a result, fluid builds up in the body tissues and the lungs.
A common symptom of heart failure is feeling tired or weak. Other symptoms include shortness of breath, swelling in the feet or ankles, dizziness or fainting, chest pain, abdominal pain or a dry, hacking cough. Sometimes a person may have difficulty lying flat, or they will wake up at night unable to catch their breath.
Heart failure usually occurs when another problem makes the heart weak or stiff.
Coronary artery disease is a common cause of this as well as a previous heart attack, high blood pressure, lung disease and problems with the valves in the heart.
If you are experiencing any of the above-mentioned symptoms, you should talk to your health care provider. Congestive heart failure will be diagnosed through an echocardiogram, an ultrasound of the heart. If diagnosed with heart failure, there are some important points to remember:
■ Watch the salt intake. It is recommended to have less than 1500 mg of sodium a day, which is less than one teaspoon of salt. Don't add salt to your food. Get in the habit of reading labels because salt is hidden in many foods.
■ The American Heart Association recommends walking at least 30 minutes a day. Start out slowly by walking 5-10 minutes a day three times a week and work up to 30 minutes per day.
■ Always rest after periods of activity.
■ Take your medicines as prescribed by your health care provider. If you have questions about your medications, talk to your health care provider or pharmacist.
■ If you are diagnosed with heart failure, it is important to know the symptoms and to call your health care provider's office with worsening symptoms.
Heart failure is a serious illness but can be managed with medications and proper lifestyle changes. Early diagnosis and treatment can greatly improve a person's quality of life and life expectancy.

I was entranced and fascinated while recently viewing the British documentary Can't Sleep Kid in full for the first time on the ABC. It was a repeat, but I never saw the whole thing when it was first broadcast. This documentary follows the search for a diagnosis or an explanation by the parents of an adorable little British girl named Jessica, who has had a disturbed sleep pattern since very early in her life. Contrary to what it says in one summary of this doco, the doco is not "a fascinating look at sleep disorders in children", as the doco focuses on one child patient (Jessica) of the Evelina Children's Hospital paediatric Sleep Disorder Unit in the UK, and it turns out that she doesn't actually have a sleep disorder, but something which I find much more fascinating and amazing.
I urge the many readers of this blog who are interested in the tragic life story of the American girl Jani Schofield to take a look at this documentary, and maybe consider a couple of ideas while viewing it:
- how many similarities and differences can you see between the two cases of Jessica and Jani?
- if Jessica had lived in the US not the UK and like Jani had been covered by the Oprah Winfrey Show rather than a British documentary, what difference might that have made to the way that she was made to look to the viewer? The night-vision video of Jessica in the doco reminded me of similar video of Jani as a baby that was, as I recall, used by the Oprah show in a way that was given a very negative spin. Little Jess could easily have been depicted as a Possessed Child of Satan with a bit of misuse of the eerie night-vision video, with the glowing eyes and the inexplicable behaviour, but the makers of the documentary Can't Sleep Kid were responsible adults with ethics and values.
I can't resist adding one more comment about Jessica, a prediction. I bet she turns out to be a smart child, maybe even having an IQ as high as the one that Jani Schofield apparently has. I know that Jessica's parents have shown great dedication already in looking after a child who has had an extremely trying sleep pattern, but I hope that they are also prepared for a future in which their child is still different and still presents special challenges in parenting and also in education, because I suspect that little Jess might be more than a gorgeous kid who resists sleep. Resisting sleep is a common trait of little kids who turn out to be intellectually gifted.
I believe this doco is still available to view on ABC iview. I'm not sure whether people from the US can use this service.

US condemns the violence not Myanmar government
We would condemn violence at all levels and it couldn't be stronger than that, State Department Spokesperson says
By Safvan Allahverdi
The U.S. State Department, Wednesday denounced the violence against Rohingya civilians in the Rakhine State, however did not directly condemn the government of Myanmar.
"We have certainly seen the repeated human rights abuses and violations by security forces and civilians as well. They have been disturbing," Spokesperson Heather Nauert told reporters at a press briefing. "We are upset by what is taking place."
Nauert said that the U.S. government had lots of conversations with the Myanmar government that will continue to be ongoing, adding that the U.S. will continue to watch the situation "extremely closely."
In response to a question about whether the State Department considers what has happened in the region as genocide, Nauert said: "I am not going to characterize it that way. We are having many discussions at many levels with the government. So I am not going to go out and try to get ahead of some of those private diplomatic conversations."
Meanwhile, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, Wednesday called on Myanmar to halt military action and atrocities against the Rohingya in Rakhine state, saying the ongoing violence by security forces against the Muslim minority was "completely unacceptable and catastrophic".
When asked why the U.S. government hasn't condemned the government of Myanmar yet, Nauert said there are reports of extrajudicial killings, sexual violence, the burning Rohingya villages by security forces and also non-Rohingya civilians and her department has condemned the violence at all levels and it couldn't be stronger than that.
Since Aug. 25, more than 370,000 Rohingya have escaped from Myanmar's western state of Rakhine into Bangladesh, according to the UN.
The refugees are fleeing a fresh security operation in which military forces and Buddhist mobs have killed men, women and children, looted homes and torched Rohingya villages. According to Bangladesh, around 3,000 Rohingya have been killed in the crackdown.
The Rohingya, described by the UN as the world's most persecuted people, have faced heightened fears of attack since dozens were killed in communal violence in 2012.

You can spot the winners in the office. They're the ones walking with that extra swagger. They make direct eye contact in the halls and bark out a more sincere "How are you" than normal, because they're just begging for you to ask how they're doing.
The winners have locked up their fantasy playoff berths, and they just can't wipe the smiles off their faces. Watch them in your staff meeting. When they're not engaged in the conversation, you can catch them floating away on a cloud of fantasy bliss, replaying the Chris Chambers touchdown catch that put them over the top. They're oblivious to everything going on around them because they can't believe the good fortune they had in facing LaDainian Tomlinson this week instead of almost any other. Walk by their office, and you might find a shrine to Carson Palmer or Larry Johnson.
The losers might be a little tougher to identify, if only because a good number of them called in sick today. And, no doubt, sick they are. They're sick of Jamal Lewis and his season-long disappearing act. They're fed up with Corey Dillon and his will-he-or-won't-he playing status. They're physically ill over their decision to bench Lee Evans and his three TD receptions.
If they somehow dragged themselves into work, they're laying low. They avoid groups gathered in conversation and eat lunch alone, muttering to themselves about what they'd do to Brett Favre if they saw him in a dark alley.
The last people they want to run into are the winners. They know it's only a matter of time before the taunting email arrives, asking them what they're going to do with all their free time now that their fantasy season is over.
And finally, there are those in fantasy limbo, awaiting the results of tonight's game. They are acting unusually distracted today, unable to focus on their work because their minds keep calculating the various scoring scenarios that must unfold for them to advance to the postseason.
They're either praying that Shaun Alexander has his typically outstanding outing, or that he spontaneously combusts. Many are pinning their hopes on the Matt Hasselbeck-to-Joe Jurevicius connection. Some are hoping against hope that Mike McMahon throws multiple touchdowns, or that David Akers breaks the record for most 50-yard field goals in NFL history.
You see, nobody wants to stop playing fantasy football on December 6th. Not when personal pride, the thrill of victory and, in a few cases here and there, some serious scratch is on the line. Besides, there's nothing worse than watching your players go lights-out in Week 14, long after your Web site has stopped adding up your points.
So here's to the winners: Congratulations, my friends, and good luck next weekend.
To those in limbo, I hope everything swings your way tonight.
To the losers, I extend my sincerest sympathies. I know nothing I can say will make you feel better, so I'll just say this: Better you than me!
It's a whole new season now that the playoffs are here. Win and keep on playing. Lose and somebody else steals your glory. Here's a look at a few players that should shine, and others who may fade, during the fantasy playoffs.
Primed for the playoffs
Trent Green, QB, Chiefs: Again playing with confidence and showing the accuracy that has made him a perennial fantasy star, Green will need to stay hot for KC to reach the playoffs. He's usually at his best in December.
Drew Brees, QB, Chargers: In a tight race with the Broncos and Chiefs for a playoff berth, Brees should fare well against Miami and KC, but will need his best stuff in the Week 15 battle at Indy.
Domanick Davis, RB, Texans: A disappointment most of the season, Davis has found his mojo when it matters most. He should follow-up his 155-yard romp against the Ravens with similar success against the Titans and Cards.
T.J. Houshmandzadeh, WR, Bengals: No longer overshadowed by Chad Johnson, T.J. is a consistently potent weapon in the Bengals' high-octane passing attack. With an easy schedule ahead, he'll be money in the playoffs.
Checking out early
Stephen Davis, RB, Panthers: The term "starter" is now officially meaningless when it comes to Carolina's backs. Davis has virtually disappeared from the Panthers' game plan and should not make it off your bench again.
Curtis Martin, RB, Jets: Riding a 7-game losing streak, the Jets are already making reservations for their postseason vacations. Martin is getting no relief from the passing game, and will be fortunate to find the end zone again this season.
RRandy Moss, WR, Raiders: It's clear that the league's most explosive receiver is less than 100 percent physically, his quarterback is struggling and his team isn't competitive. Look for disinterest, and discontent, to set in quickly.

You've probably all seen the vine going around the world of social media by now: Manchester United's executive vice chairman Ed Woodward appeared to suggest that one of the club's stars was a 'F****** waste of money' in the Red Devils' 2-2 draw with West Brom at the Hawthorns.
Woodward, unknowingly, was caught on camera as he let his foul-mouth get the better of him in another average performance from the Red Devils.

Woodward, of course, was the man who gave the club the license to splash out as much as £150 million on new talent in the last transfer window after a disastrous season under David Moyes.
However, the executive vice chairman hasn't seen a great deal of improvement at the club, with the Red Devils already way off the pace in the race to land the Premier League title.
In fact, United are currently sitting in sixth place in the table, having secured just 12 points from their opening eight fixtures. So, then, which United star could Woodward have been talking about?
Well, we're going to take a look at the candidates. Scroll through the following pages to see the stars who could have been on the end of Woodward's foul-mouth...

Synthesis of optimised hydrogen production catalysts
In first instance, two existing proton reduction catalysts, based on Ni or Co are attached to an Si nanowire electrode surface, either via covalent "plug-and-play" anchoring strategies using phosphate (PO3H2), silanol (Si(OR)3) or carboxylate (COOH) functionalities or via supramolecular bonding motives using hydrogen bonding or concepts, allowing for simple assembly of active, well defined catalytic systems.
After this benchmarking stage, we aim for significant improvements of these systems - as well as dinuclear analogues thereof – by ligand sphere alterations, optimization of linkage methodologies, the incorporation of functional groups to allow lower over-voltages (i.e. cooperative and bifunctional mechanisms for H2 formation) and the use of porous supramolecular aggregates. We will also develop Fe-based systems for anchoring to the Si-nanowire system.
Critical factors are catalyst activation for PCET, redox leveling and thermodynamic stabilization of intermediates in the 2-electron process, variation of the bite angle for release of hydrogen to avoid that structural rearrangements become rate-limiting instead of the PCET steps. The optimization will be evidence-based, and will be performed in close collaboration with the time resolved laser and freeze hyperquenching NMR analysis projects that feed into theconstrained molecular modeling of catalysis mechanisms. he supramolecular catalyst are then incorporated into thesemiconductor heterojunction tandem device that is the focus of artifical leaves.
The work in this project is primarily done at the Supramolecular & Homogeneous Catalysis department of the van 't Hoff Institute for Molecular Sciences, Science Park Amsterdam, Amsterdam University.

How exactly do I sound like an older man? Just wondering what separates younger guys from older guys in your opinion. Just to let you know, I'm 25 and MarcosZeitola is also around my age.

Random readers might have guessed that he should actually be Professor Marcos.gnosis wrote:What makes me laugh about your story isn't the age of your GF as much as your attitude.

I have checked the status each day and the only thing it has said is "This request is currently being processed by our staff"

Given that this thread seems to be related to issues Daz is having I thought I'd post here about an odd thing I've been experiencing today. It doesn't involve a purchase or products I own so it doesn't seem to me like something I should start a support ticket for. Basically it involves at least 5 of Daz's newest products but it may actually impact more although I can't tell since I only had this issue with these 5 items all of which are new as of Monday. The 5 products are Hero's Stand, Horned Barbarian, Horned Barbarian Textures, Galactic Corp Defender and Galactic Corp Defender Textures. The problem comes when I try to move them from my shopping cart to my wish list. Everything seems normal, they're in my cart, I check the boxes next to each item to move them to my wish list, update the cart and they disappear all just like normal. The problem is though, they don't show up on my wish list. I've tried 3 different times once early this morning, once a little while later and then the third time just a few minutes ago. This last time I also had today's new items in the cart, Fantasy Weapons Collection and The Forgotten Chapel. The two newest ones moved over to the wish list like they should but once again the 5 others from Monday did not even though they are no longer in my cart. I have not had any problems with my computer or my connection and I have not installed any new software or changed any settings on my end so this seems to me clearly to be an issue on Daz's end. That some how, those 5 files were affected but not the two from today. This week's freebie may have been effected but since I went ahead and checked that one out I didn't have any real reason to try to test it.
Anyway I just figured Daz might want to know? I move things to my wish list fairly regularly and have never had this problem before so whatever it is it must be connected either to those files or some change made in the recent past like either last Friday or yesterday since nobody is there on the weekend.
UPDATE: It's been a couple of days now and I just thought I'd update things as there have been some changes. Adding items to the wish list is still malfunctioning but some of the previously missing files showed up. To be exact all but Hero's Stand and Horned Barbarian textures and Galactic Corp Defender Textures have shown up. However, just minutes before making this post, I added the new Pool Table Vignette by Predatron, at that moment my wish list read 485. After updating the cart with the move to wishlist option checked the item left my cart and the item count on my wish list went up to 486. So I thought "Oh good it's working now" I went to check and nope the Pool Table Vignette was not there but that's when I discovered some of the other previously missing files had shown up. At that moment I noticed something odd. I had two seperate entries for Galactic Corp Defender which I though wasn't possible but rather multiple copies showed up as a number greater than 1 in that little box above the add to cart button? Anyway I deleted one of the duplicates which brought the wish list number of items back down to 485. So then I went back to the new release page and added Pool Table Vignette to my cart again and moved it to wish list but this time the number stayed at 485 and again it did not appear on the wish list like it should have. I'm wondering if maybe there is some PC Members only setting on it that is interfering with non PC members moving it to their wish list?Post edited by LordHardDriven on
beckywlms Posts: 0larsmidnatt said:Luci45 said:I completely agree that DAZ' support and return policy are the best,
They may be the best in this industry, but far from good outside this restriction. I've had more problems and delays with Daz than any other company I have purchased from in my life. While others are extra happy about their 2 day responses, my last few encounters haven't been so buttery.
And they should answer the phone.
And I know I'm not alone, just look at threads in the forum.
I feel the same way. I hate that you can only get a reply through email. I had a problem during christmas and never got it resolved. I lost out on all of the sales due to the issue. Ohhh yea I got a reply after all the sales were over through email.
Well the logon in the store is a mess again. Not calling. Shouldn't have to. I have to log on, then go to my account and then perhaps to my empty cart and then if I'm lucky I go to the store and I stay logged in. For a while this seemed to be resolved and I was automatically logged in when after I booted into Windows and started up FF and then hit the store link but nope, now it's back to where it was a couple of months back. I don't know why DAZ coders keep messing this up. It's really really annoying. Forums are fine but getting the logon to stick in the store is a royal pain in the ass!

Yeah logging in is becoming a bitch again. You'd think after 10 months this wouldn't be an issue anymore. I have been having to log out, clear my cache and log back in again everyday for several days now. I'm sure this isn't happening to everyone, but it shouldn't be happening to anyone.
Agreed. 10 months now and counting on these constant logon issues.... quite annoying
As this is an issue which seems to affect only a few, but nonetheless is till a valid issue, the only thing I can suggest is that you take screen shots, so that others can see what is happening when you get this problem occur, and then possibly file a support ticket if we can't sort it out on the forum.
OK... I submitted a ticket. We shall see ....

Talked with somebody who didn't know much. Submitted a ticket for a refund. This is day 4 and the damn think hasn't even been assigned to "Support Agent" yet. Damn I would have already spent the refund at DAZ if I had it. I've only had to do this one other time since 2007 and the solution was instant. Very unhappy. Bad DAZ !!

UPDATE: 2 wks Later. I took two beautiful people, Chohole & Britney(Sales) to straighten out my problem. It seems that if you try to deal with issues by phone rather than email they don't always know what their doing. Britney said she would be talking with the folks who answer the phone. 10 Gold stars for both Chohole & Britney!!! :-)Post edited by Strixowl on
You're welcome. Glad I could be of some help.
I find this all rather odd. No, really, I do. Or maybe it's me that's odd. Dunno - I'll have to think on that ...
Anyway, I have never once had a problem the few times I called and the ticket system has always worked flawlessly for me. Britney is a saint and if she weren't married I'd call on my Viking ancestors to help me kidnap her and bring her to Hawaii. Granted, it wouldn't be real good for support but that's a minor issue. ;-)
Seriously (Cho, you know how much of an effort it takes for me to be serious, right?), my average ticket response time has been two or three days with problems resolved to everyone's satisfaction. (Well, to Daz's and mine. That's everyone, right?) All these problems I'm seeing here to me are ... I don't know ... not in accordance with any of my experiences with support. I'm wondering if attitude has anything to do with it. I'm thinking it probably does to some degree. If Britney's reading here, I hope she'll confirm that I never "take an attitude" with support but am pleasant and relaxed. No demands, just requests. A sense of humor doesn't hurt. In other words, I'm not my usual crude, cruel, cantankerous & contemptible self. Amazing, isn't it.Post edited by Kludge on

I do agree that you attitude is important, but sometimes the attitude is in the eye of the beholder. It can be frustrating for us if the support person did not read the original ticket carefully and asks you information that it already contained.
Sometimes, it is simply not possible to resolve to my satisfaction. Recently, I was looking for documentation to a product that had a dead link. I was told that the could not get documentation from the vendor and I could not have a refund since 30 days had past. I understand that that is within their right, but I have some minimum level of expectation to have documentation.

Or, as in my case on more than one occasion, replying to half of the very last sentence in my ticket report and ignoring the previous three paragraphs which detailed exactly what was wrong. After three or four bounces back and forth with no actual communication it gets a bit difficult not to shout "read what I wrote".

So , I am willing to spend money right now......if only I could talk to a sales person....but no I have to put in a ticket to speak to someone in sales....not even speak....email only....wtf DAZ don't you like money?
Fixmypcmike Posts: 17,301
If it's a question that doesn't require access to your account, someone on the forum might be able to answer it.
Never once have I needed to talk to anyone to spend money here. Well, except myself and that usually turns into arguments as to whether or not I can afford whatever it is I'm buying.
I don't see a web site complaint thread so....
DAZ. We are now back to having to log on every time I come to the store but what's worse is that I'm forced to log on every time I come to the forums. Can we say "just a little paranoid?" I mean really. Give me a break already!

Well once again my PC membership is about to be canceled due to and error on Daz part. I have been sending tickets daily since I keep getting and email stating that my payment has failed. I have hardly been able to purchase from the site since they change it due to the fact that is tells me the purchase is declined. I have checked everything on my end and there is no reason at all that it should be declined. I decided to make a purchase else where and had no problems using the same account.
Daz has lost so many sale from me due to this continual issue. It is time it be fixed. I am frustrate to no end about this and feel I am wasting my money.
Maybe they are doing this deliberate.
I have been able to speak to someone on the phone before and it was fixed quickly. Now I can't get the phone number to speak to someone. I have sent countless tickets and still no reply.
Daz really needs to improve customer service. I wonder how many other people are have this issue and how many customers they have lost to bad customer service. I have work in customer service myself and you take care of the customer first and foremost. And you do it quickly to keep the customer. So my question is , is the customer your Priority?
Odd. I'm reading about all these problems and can't say I've ever experienced any of them. Well, aside from the log-in issue and I don't really see that as a problem but rather a very *minor* inconvenience. I have had to put in tickets but none have lasted longer than a week and that was due to involving several people while the remainder only took at most three days to resolve and were usually completed in a day. Do they just love us old goats more or what?

My issue was resolved. Sorry to air it in public, but thank you DAZ for correcting it.

And Now We All Love Brass Again
2 comments:
I'm struggling with all the brass everywhere---we're about to add hardware to our kitchen cabinets and I want to go with brushed nickel, but keep being told it will look dated from the start. Ah well, maybe in 20 yrs it will be trendy. Yet another reason to choose what you love (if you can decipher what you love from what trends have convinced you to love!). Btw, did you see the gold and silver decor pieces at Target? I thought that was a smart way to blend the past and present trends.ReplyDeleteReplies
Yes, you have to go with what you love. I love brass because it feels old, like it has a story. But with too much I may tire of it. If you like the look of brushed nickel, go for it! It has a clean, cool, modern feel in my opinion. Target is consistently nailing it! The Nate Berkus line and the Threshold line are fabulous!Delete

I ran blindly out into the streets of Hollywood.
I just ran and ran.
"Where did I park?!" My mind raced, trying to remember. Tears obstructed my view, and the moments that had just transpired fogged my thoughts. "That jerk.... He can go to hell!"
Let's rewind a bit here. We met at a fashion event in Little Tokyo, downtown, where our eyes locked on each other from across the room. It was a scene straight out of a saccharine, unimaginative romantic comedy; in other words … it was perfect.
His tall and slender frame was encased in a beat-up black leather jacket, and his dark eyes gleamed. Oozing charisma and confidence from his every pore, he cracked a wry smile at me. I was a goner.
Thus began two months of losing myself in his world.
Every pair of impractical high heels I bought, I wondered if he would appreciate my quirky fashion taste.
Every amusing moment that transpired for me, I couldn't wait to spin into a charming anecdote to entertain him.
Every time I went out with girlfriends, I made sure to post the most flattering photos on Facebook, hoping it would demonstrate to him what a catch I was.
Silly, foolish girl.
Of course I can say that now, but I digress.
Then came the transition that changed it all. "I'm going to San Francisco for business, and it'll be for a month total," he told me. "I'm breaking it up into two separate trips, so you'll see me in two weeks. It won't be too long, right?"
I felt the unease rise in my body like a slow wave about to crash onto shore. "I'll see ya in two weeks!" I chirped in a voice I didn't quite recognize. Meanwhile I could see the jagged rocks on the shoreline. Perhaps even then I knew what was to come.
Days passed before I heard from him. Warm relief coursed through my body as I answered his call. "Hey, I'm thinking about you. How are you?" I heard him say from far away.
"I'm good, How's San Francisco?" I asked, imploring my voice to sound upbeat.
"Listen, some plans shifted, and they need me to stay the full month here," he said. "But, we'll stay in touch and I'll see you when I get back, right?"
Two weeks. Three weeks. Four weeks later. I hadn't heard from him since that phone call, and as the days passed, a stubborn sense of pride took over. "Why don't you just call him? Maybe he's just really busy," my friends suggested. "No," I said. "If he wants to talk to me, he should reach out to me."
Of course, that didn't stop me from Facebook-stalking him, looking for clues. And then … there it was. His status update.
"Hello LA! I'm back!" it read. The proverbial writing was on the Facebook wall. I threw on some clothes, swiped on some lipstick and flew out the door.
And so, there I stood, facing his house. His car was parked in his driveway, proof that, yup, he was home. Did he miss me? Why didn't he call? I mean, I was his girlfriend, right? After all, I had already met his large Italian American family. All his friends. He had taken me on a weekend "staycation" aboard the majestic Queen Mary in Long Beach. We had shared tawdry inside jokes, contented nights in with pizza and '80s movies and spoke passionately about our prized record collections while traipsing through the aisles at Amoeba.
All of these things meant something, right? As I walked up to his front door, I peeked inside his car. Suddenly, I felt all my insecurities subside. There on his passenger seat was an 8-by-10, black-and-white, glossy photograph. I didn't recognize the man in the photo — perhaps he was some obscure '80s actor? — but what got my attention was what was written on this photo. "To Grace. Thanks for being awesome!"
My heart swelled. Yes he had failed to keep in touch … but he had thought of me. Enough to give me a little gift from his travels. I rang the doorbell expectantly.
So imagine my surprise when a woman answered the door. Taken aback, I took in the sight of this unassuming, nondescript, portly little female before me, who was also Asian. She smiled vapidly at me, almost welcoming. Surely, she must be the new roommate who had just moved in.
"Hi," I said hesitantly, "Is Michael home?" "Yeah, he's here, he's just resting from getting back. He got sick from traveling."
Ahh, so she must be the new roommate. Just looking out for his well being …
"Oh, OK. Did you just move in?" I asked.
"Oh, no, I'm just visiting from San Francisco," she said sheepishly, almost blushing.
"OK, well, I'm coming in to check on him. Oh, and by the way, I'm Grace." I extended my hand.
The vacant smile slowly dissipated from her face. She blinked once. Then again, before replying.
"Hi. I'm Grace too."

Forget for a moment that Jessica Who is a woman. It would be easy to say that's why she deserves a mention — a woman succeeding in a male-dominated field. How cliché.
Instead let's hone in on why she really is worth talking about — a fucking awesome DJ.
DJ Jessica Who
At 25, she has a resumé that would be the envy of most DJs. The South Florida native is a resident at two of the hottest spots on either side of the causeway. Wednesday nights at LIV, she drops dance-pop and hip-hop for the bottle-service set; Saturdays she commandeers the decks at Grand Central with more underground, dance-rock music that will probably be popular on South Beach a year from now.
"What I find difficult is that I have to have my foot in so many different things and stay current," Jessica says about her opposing gigs. "I have to stay current on Crystal Castles and Pitbull."
When she's not working clubs in Miami, she's traveling to New York, Chicago, Vegas, and L.A., spinning at nightclubs and private events for the likes of Katy Perry and Queen Latifah. And amid all of those gigs, she's an ambassador for brands such as Dove and Alizé.
The former took her to this year's MTV Video Music Awards as part of the Dove Fresh Spin campaign, for which she did on-camera interviews with artists and creatives such as Jessie J and choreographer Laurieann Gibson. The cameras followed her around her midtown Miami apartment, at local gigs, and in the dressing room before the awards show, giving viewers a glimpse of her hectic life.
"You can make people feel a certain way by playing certain music," Jessica tells Dove's cameras. "People always need that release, and that's what I'm there for."
But while crowds are looking for a release, Jessica is looking for that high only a crowd can give.

"You don't understand what you are doing until you get that insane crowd reaction. It's a drug. You spend your entire career trying to replicate that."
Spinning other people's music might not sound gratifying to some people, but Jessica says it's her "first love," adding it's not yet the right time for her to attempt to produce her own music.
"There is so much shitty music out there. I don't want to add to it until I know what I'm doing."
