Create a Heart Hair Braid For Valentine's Day A Heart Braid Is a Sweet Valentine's Day Hairdo by Rebecca M Gruber 2/11/13 35 Reactions 38 Shares Print 11 27 0 0 0 Who needs a sleeve when you can wear your heart on the top of your head! While some tots will be sporting their Valentine's love with their clothes, lil ones with long manes can fashion their hair into the ultimate symbol of love with a heart braid. Cozy Friedman of New York's Cozy's Cuts for Kids and the author of Cozy's Complete Guide to Girls' Hair ($9), shared the sweet holiday look with us. If you know how to create a French braid and have 15 minutes to spare, your child can sport this sweet style. Just follow these step-by-step instructions. Jennifer Playford and Alexandra Grablewski Step 1: Gather Your Materials and Prepare the Hair What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 To create the heart hairstyle, you will need: Wide-tooth comb Fine-tooth comb Hair clip Ponytail holders Starting with damp hair (either towel-dried or misted), use a wide-tooth comb to detangle the hair. Then, using a fine-tooth comb, part the hair down the middle of the head. Clip one side up right above the ear. 1 / 6 Step 2: Create Your First Section What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 On the other side of the part, use the fine comb to gather a thin section of hair from the crown. This section should measure about 2 inches from the hairline to the top of the head. 2 / 6 Step 3: Start a French Braid What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Divide this section into three, and begin a French braid starting at the crown and curving toward the temple, then toward the back of the head, like the top lobe of a heart. You will be lifting hair into the braid only from this side of the part. Leave no loose hair in front of the ear. 3 / 6 Step 4: Secure the First Braid What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 When you reach the center part at the back of the head, secure the braid with a ponytail holder. If the hair is very long, end the braid about mid ear; the ends will hang down the back. 4 / 6 Step 5: Create Second French Braid What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Clip up the hair on the other side of the part and repeat the process. Secure with a ponytail holder. 6 / 6 Step 6: Join Together What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Join the two ends of the braids together in the back with a ponytail holder to form the bottom point of the heart. 6 / 6 11 27 0 0 0 Back to Homepage Read More Cozy FriedmanHairstylesValentine's DayHaircutsHair Valentine's Day Embrace Your Foxy Side With This Fresh Take on Boudoir 1 week ago Stop — You're Washing Your Lingerie All Wrong! 2 weeks ago A Little Love Goes a Long Way: Basic French Macarons 2 weeks ago We Spy: Celebrity Hairstyles!

Huntington University senior Josh Clark authors book
Huntington, Ind.—On Oct. 2, Huntington University senior Josh Clark released his first book titled "Take my intentions: Poems of a Man in Progress" from PublishAmerica.
The 120-page paperback is an accumulation of most of the poems Clark has written over the last year and a half.
After submitting his work to PublishAmerica, the same publisher that released then-Huntington University student Rachel Tinon's work in 2002, the publishing company liked what it saw and gave Clark an opportunity to break into the business.
"Take My Intentions..." book cover
Although writing novels is something that Clark plans to pursue in the future, he wanted to test the waters and be sure that he was capable of being an author.
"Writing poetry comes naturally for me. It is relaxing and how I unwind after a long day of classes and baseball," said Clark, a senior English education major from Archbold, Ohio.
His favorite poem is called "Under Construction." Clark describes it as the simplest poem, but to him, it holds the most meaning. From the lines "Take my intentions, make them my discipline" comes the title of the book.
"The entire book of poems deals with the concept of taking your intentions and making them produce fruit and become the discipline of your heart. All of the poems deal with my spiritual journey to do just that – get past all of my intentions to a place of discipline in my walk with Christ," Clark said.
Clark's book is being sold in bookstores around the country and on Amazon.com and BarnesAndNoble.com for $16.95.

SourceGas Distribution LLC has filed its annual Gas Cost Adjustment (GCA) with the Colorado Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) for its Western Slope service area. The filing reflects a decrease of 5.16 percent in a customer's total annual bill for the upcoming period which begins Nov. 1 and continues through Oct. 31, 2013.
In accordance with state law, the company recovers the cost it pays to purchase natural gas on behalf of its customers on a dollar-for-dollar basis, without realizing any profit or loss. The GCA mechanism ensures that customers pay exactly the same amount the company paid to purchase natural gas for them. The new rates, if approved, will take effect Nov. 1 and will be reflected in the next billing cycle.
The Western Slope service area includes the communities of Olathe, Delta, Orchard City, Austin, Cory, Eckert, Cedaredge, Paonia, Hotchkiss and Crawford.
"Natural gas prices have remained relatively stable, which is one of the reasons natural gas is the fuel of choice for our customers," said Bill Cantrell, president and CEO of SourceGas. "It also continues to be the best energy value for our customers compared to propane or electricity with the added benefits of being clean, abundant and domestically produced."
For residential customers in the Western Slope service area, the total of the new volumetric rates will be $0.8830 per therm. Based on an average monthly usage of 97 therms, the typical household will now pay an average of about $98.09 per month instead of about $103.43 per month for their natural gas service. Residential customers who typically use 198 therms in January (when bills are usually the highest) will pay approximately $187.27, a decrease of about $10.89, or approximately 5.50 percent, for their bill in January 2013, compared to January 2012. Small business customers who typically use 261 therms in January will pay approximately $242.89, a decrease of about $14.36, or approximately 5.58 percent for their January 2013 bill compared to the same period in 2012.

A few reasons I enjoy the JavaScript development community
After spending a few weeks during code freeze at work and trying out all these libraries we began development for a mobile application. In an effort to rapidly prototype the web application I began to build with jQuery Mobile. This gave our team common components that work across a wide range of devices without overloading us with testing. Also the theme roller for jQuery Mobile is a handy tool for the building a base skin for the mobile site. With only a few sketches and by generating a mobile theme that looked very blueprint-ish we began authoring a site prototype to work out the features and components that should be included in the mobile site application. Since the site framework is built with Backbone we will not use the jQuery Mobile routing features; however for the prototype this mobile framework was very handy right out of the box. Recently there have been many talks and articles on the concept of "mobile first", basically the small screen helps to define what really matters and helps to put usability as a high priority. This ends up striking a nice balance between identifying requirements for design, usability and the application's functionality. Using the logic-less template library, Mustache to render JSON from the web service layer is much funner than all kinds of crazy DOM fragment manipulation to render data. I found a great tutorial post on using HTML Templates with Mustache.js.
I am developing the framework based on Backbone.js which has the dependency of the Underscore.js library – a very robust set of tools that complement Backbone, especially with filtering collections. Also, Backbone needs either jQuery or Zepto, I am content with jQuery. The Deferred and Callbacks objects in the current version of jQuery also help to manage asynchronous behaviors of the components within the framework. For example, I can add a Deferred object to a collection and within a view object only render after the resolution of the deferred property of the required collection object. The Callbacks object comes in handy using a view object that programmatically renders partial templates based on various child views, I can iterate over options passed to a view and define child views based on the options, then add to the (parent) view object's render method callbacks to render the child views. Though Backbone does not provide (out of the box) a collection view; there are good solutions posted online. So, when I need to program some behavior that is not included in Backbone, I often discover good solutions online that I can borrow from. For me, the bottom line is that Backbone gives common patterns for developing a data-driven application backed by a RESTful API and is very extendable. Backbone does not box me in, yet is fairly straight forward for me to build on top of, also giving solid structure to the components I need in developing a modular application.
Perhaps the most enjoyment I find in JavaScript development with this mix of libraries is the discovery of a solution based on using behavior-driven development (BDD) methodologies; and of course discovering though this lather, rinse, repeat (test-driven development) practice. The combination of Jasmine, jQuery-Jasmin and Sinon.JS testing libraries is powerful to say the least. I really enjoy getting from red to green, in passing the tests. I find that sometimes the hardest part is to guess what exactly will prove the solution yet to be discovered. This development approach helps to break down a solution by proving the expected behavior with simpler units of behavior which can be tested and verified independently from the application itself. Sinon.JS provides an nice and fake XHR server for testing Backbone.js applications. Jasmine has spies which replace a function that it is spying on, and Jasmine-jQuery adds the sweetness of fixtures, jQuery based matchers and event spies to complete a solid suite for a front-end developer to embrace the process of test-driven development. It is very nice to execute the tests on various mobile devices during development to ensure cross platform/device compatibility.
Node.js came in very handy in authoring a shell script to prep and build using the r.js optimizer. I needed to have a site that can be hosted in a cloud environment with out any server-side script execution. So adding to the RequireJS optimizer script I added a release script to modify my build.js and index.html files to utilize a specified build directory. And, node is just cool, right?

Gnulib provides 'quote' and 'quotearg' modules to help with quoting text, such as file names, in messages to the user. Here's an example of using 'quote':
#include <quote.h> ... error (0, errno, _("cannot change owner of %s"), quote (fname));
This differs from
error (0, errno, _("cannot change owner of '%s'"), fname);
in that quote
escapes unusual characters in
, e.g., ''' and control characters like '\n'.
However, a caveat: quote
reuses the storage that it returns.
Hence if you need more than one thing quoted at the same time, you
need to use quote_n
Also, the quote module is not suited for multithreaded applications.
In that case, you have to use quotearg_alloc
, defined in the
'quotearg' module, which is decidedly less convenient.

Thanks for the nice words. I think I'm steadily improving, and shooting digitally really helps. I can take 50 pics at a time, try 10 different "poses", and not have to PAY and WAIT for developing to find out that most of them sucked; it really speeds-up the learning curve.
Less versatile, though (the cheaper cameras, anyway).

5-Fluoro-2'-Deocyctidine and Tetrahydrouridine to Treat Patients With Advanced Cancer
This study has been completed.
Information provided by:
National Institutes of Health Clinical Center (CC)
ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier:
First received: August 1, 2006

- How to Read a Study Record
- 5-Fluoro-2'-Deocyctidine (FdCyd) and 5-Fluorouracil (FUra) both belong to a class of anti-cancer drugs called fluoropyrimidines.
- FUra is the most widely used agent in this class of drugs.
- The properties and activity of FdCyd, used together with the experimental drug tetrahydrouridine (THU), may make it a more effective cancer treatment than FUra alone.
- To determine how much FdCyd can be given safely with a fixed dose of THU.
- To determine the side effects of FdCyd administered together with THU.
- To examine how the body handles FdCyd.
-Patients 18 years of age and older whose cancer either has progressed after receiving standard treatment or for whom no standard treatment is available.
- Patients receive FdCyd and THU infusions in 4-week treatment cycles. The drugs are given together through a vein for 3 hours each day for 5 days, 2 weeks in a row, followed by a 2-week rest. Treatment continues unless: 1) the side effects are unacceptable, 2) the tumor grows, 3) the tumor has not shrunk by one-half its size after two treatment cycles, or 4) there is no longer evidence of cancer after two cycles of treatment.
- To determine the optimum dose of FdCyd, the dose is increased in subsequent small groups of patients entering the study until the highest tolerated dose is found.
- Patients are evaluated periodically with physical examinations, blood and urine tests, X-rays and other imaging studies, electrocardiograms, tumor measurements and tumor biopsies (surgical removal of a small piece of tumor tissue).
- The study will accrue a maximum of 80 patients at all centers (18 at the NCI).

Drug: 5-Fluoro-2-deoxycytidine (FdCyd) |
Phase 1 |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Primary Purpose: Treatment |
Official Title: | A Phase I Trial of 5-Fluoro-2'-Deoxycytidine With Tetrahydrouridine in Advanced Malignancies |
Resource links provided by NLM:
Further study details as provided by National Institutes of Health Clinical Center (CC):
Primary Outcome Measures:
- To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) if FdCyd administered by intravenous infusion over 3 hours with concomitant infusion of 350 mg/m2 of THU.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- To describe the toxicities of FdCyd co-infused with THU.
Enrollment: | 21 |
Study Start Date: | August 2006 |
Study Completion Date: | December 2011 |
Intervention Details:
Detailed Description:
Drug: 5-Fluoro-2-deoxycytidine (FdCyd)
- In pre-clinical models, 5-fluoro-2 -deoxycytidine (FdCyd), administered along with tetrahydrouridine (THU; an inhibitor of cytidine/deoxycytidine deaminase), has shown superior anti-tumor activity as compared with 5-fluorouracil.
- FdCyd can be phosphorylated to 5-fluoro-2 -deoxycytidylate (FdCMP) by deoxycytidine kinase and the nucleotide deaminated to FdUMP by deoxycytidylate (dCMP) deaminase. The activity of dCMP deaminase is reported to be higher in human malignancies than in normal tissues, which may result in selective cytotoxicity.
- FdCyd is an inhibitor of DNA methyltransferase and DNA methylation, resulting in re-expression of genes silenced by DNA hypermethylation.
- To determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of FdCyd administered by intravenous infusion over 3 hours with concomitant infusion of 350 mg/m2 of THU.
- To describe the toxicities of FdCyd co-infused with THU.
- To obtain preliminary evidence of anti-tumor activity in patients treated with this combination.
- To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of FdCyd and THU when co-infused.
- To evaluate the oral bioavailability of FdCyd when co-administered with THU.
- When feasible, to measure the relative levels of the mRNAs for thymidylate synthase, deoxycytidine kinase, dCMP deaminase and other relevant enzymes; and the methylation status of p16 and other genes relevant to neoplasia.
- Patients with advanced, histologically-confirmed malignancies refractory to standard therapy or for which no standard therapy exists.
- Patients should have adequate liver, renal and bone marrow function.
Study Design:
- Except for one cycle in which FdCyd and THU will be administered orally on the first day (cycle 2 or a subsequent cycle), FdCyd will be administered as an IV infusion over 3 hours along with the infusion of THU daily for 5 consecutive days of treatment per week for 2 consecutive weeks, followed by 2 weeks of no treatment, for 28-day cycles. On the first day of the cycle in which pharmacokinetic samples are obtained (cycle 2 or a subsequent cycle), a single oral dose of THU followed immediately by a single oral dose of FdCyd will be administered to determine the oral bioavailability of FdCyd when administered with THU.
- The intravenous dose of THU is fixed at 350 mg/m2/day; the single oral dose of THU will be 1750 mg/m2. The dose of FdCyd will be escalated based on tolerability of lower doses.
- Three to six patients will be enrolled at each dose level.
- Plasma and urine for PKs will be obtained during the first, second, and third day of the second cycle (or subsequent cycle, but not the first cycle).
- Blood for pharmacodynamic studies will be obtained before treatment and with the first interim weekly labs of each cycle. Tumor biopsies will be collected from patients before treatment and during the second week of cycle 2 only.
- The study will accrue a maximum of 80 patients at all centers (28 at the NCI).
Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years and older |
Genders Eligible for Study: | Both |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
- Advanced, histologically-confirmed neoplastic disease refractory to standard therapy or for which no standard therapy exists
- Age greater than or equal to 18 years
- Karnofsky performance status (Appendix II) of at least 60% and estimated survival of at least two months
- Adequate renal function, as evidenced by serum creatinine less than or equal to 2.0 mg/dl or creatinine clearance greater than or equal 50 ml/min
- Adequate bone marrow function, as evidenced by ANC greater than or equal to 1,500/microl and platelets greater than or equal to 125,000/microl.
- Adequate liver function, as evidenced by bilirubin less than or equal to 1.5 mg/dl and SGOT and SGPT less than or equal to 3 times the upper limits of normal
- Prior antineoplastic therapy must have been completed at least four weeks prior to the patient's entry on this study, or patients must have recovered from any expected side effects of the prior therapy. There is no limit on the number of cycles of prior chemotherapy.
- Patients must be ineligible for or have refused participation in higher priority institutional protocols.
- Written, voluntary, informed consent of the patient must be obtained in compliance with institutional, state and federal guidelines.
- Because FdCyd has been shown to be teratogenic in animals, pregnant patients are INELIGIBLE. All patients of child-bearing potential, both male and female, must be advised to practice adequate contraception. Premenopausal women must have a negative pregnancy test prior to entry on this study.
- Patients with any non-malignant intercurrent illness (e.g. cardiovascular, pulmonary, or central nervous system disease) which is either poorly controlled with currently available treatment, or which is of such severity that the investigators deem it inappropriate to treat the patient on this protocol are INELIGIBLE.
- Patients currently being treated for a severe infection or who are recovering from major surgery are INELIGIBLE until recovery is deemed complete by the investigators.
- The presence of measurable disease is NOT required for this phase I study. If bidimensionally measurable disease is present, baseline measurements of up to 3 indicator lesions should be made no earlier than four weeks prior to the first cycle of chemotherapy. Pleural effusions, ascites and bone metastases are not considered measurable.
- CBC, differential count, platelet count, and blood chemistries should be done no earlier than 72 hours prior to each cycle of chemotherapy.
- Except as noted in Section 5.13 (4 weeks for tumor measurements) and Section 5.14 (72 hours for specified blood work), pretreatment tests should be done no earlier than two weeks prior to the first cycle of chemotherapy.
- Priority for accrual will be given to patients with breast cancer due to the in vitro data suggesting potential activity for this disease.

Facebook's COO: Response to disabled accounts was 'too slow'
PALO ALTO, Calif.-- Facebook Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg admitted in a talk here on Thursday evening that the company's response to a database outage that knocked out approximately 150,000 user accounts was "too slow."
"It's a very small percentage of our users, but it's a lot of people," Sandberg said of the affected users. "We want them to be able to (access Facebook) every day. We resolved it in about a week and a half. I think that was too slow."

Magnetic North's new music video for their soulful hip-hop song, "Home:Word", featuring Taiyo Na, from their album of the same title. Produced by Wong Fu Productions, "Home:Word" tells a genuine story about an Asian American family's domestic struggles. The song "Cold", another song on the album, plays during the credits.
Wong Fu follows the video with heartfelt words:
Dedicated to our families.
Like the mother and daughter, we all have those moments where we neglect our parents, too busy living our own life, we often forget that on the other side our parents are working hard and have struggled to give us as good a life as they can.
Like the son, pressures from school can be the biggest struggle for young people. While it's important, sometimes stepping away to find that true peace keeps us going. Whether it's in art and photography, making videos, singing, dancing, or even video games with friends.
Like the father, jobs and financial worries can bring us down. Especially in these tough times, when so much is uncertain, the greatest gift we have is knowing that there is one constant, family.

Summary: This fascinating exploration of children's inquiry-what it is, how it develops, and how it contributes to children's learning-will help teacher educators and elementary teachers to understand, appreciate, and foster children's inquiry in classrooms. In this volume, Lindfors introduces a theoretical framework for understanding children's inquiry language-not as linguistic forms (questions), but as communication acts in which the child brings another into the act of se ...show morense-making. By closely examining these ''inquiry acts,''the author uncovers new possibilities for our understanding of how children learn and how teachers can foster their learning in classrooms. The text features a wide range of voices and writings, including transcripts from homes and classrooms, class exercises, research findings, classroom episodes, and the author's own reflections.

Round The Corner Garage Doors
5 Items Found | Page 1 |
Round the corner garage doors were one of the earliest types of garage doors to follow the side hinged type of garage doors first used. Sliding on different types of top hung rollers with guides commonly running in a U channel set into the ground, the doors are able to be manufactured to almost any size from various types of timber. However the bottom channel was the weak point in the operation as it regularly filled with leaves, gravel and all types of debris which unless cleared out would upset the sliding operation of the door.

Curtis Fuller and Louis Hayes at Jazz Standard
Jazz Standard
New York, NY
March 25, 2006
A packed Jazz Standard played host to two illustrious members of the hard-bop movement's old guard on March 25 as Curtis Fuller and Louis Hayesalong with veteran pianist John Hicksled an ensemble of "rising stars featuring the trumpets of Maurice Brown and Dwayne Eubanks (brother of guitarist Kevin), as well as Nat Reeves on bass.
Saturday night served as the third installment of the four-night run for the ensemble, which likely drew such a large crowd based on the name-recognition of Fuller, who happened to have played trombone on one of the most popular jazz albums of all time: John Coltrane's Blue Train, recorded for Blue Note in 1957. Fuller also led a series of superbly-cast dates for the label during the 1950s, all of which remaininexplicablyout of print. He can be heard, however, as a sideman on a number of readily available discs from leaders like Jimmy Smith, Sonny Clark and Art Blakey.
The drummer Hayes, who also performed with Fuller at last year's New Orleans Jazz Festival, is no slouch himself. While he doesn't appear on any juggernauts that have received the popular recognition of, say, Blue Train, he can be heard on a number of essential hard-bop dates, such as Grant Green's quartet sessions with Sonny Clark (on which he shared drumming duties with Blakey) and pretty much everything Horace Silver recorded for Blue Note during the second half of the 1950s.
In fact, it was Hayes who set the pace on Saturday night after a rather unusual exchange with Fuller. Upon taking the bandstand, the trombonist seemed to notice something strange about the lighting scheme and commented about it to Hayes. "Maybe we should just take it easy for a while, Fuller said. "It's just a thought.
Whether or not Hayes actually took the "thought into consideration is debatable, since - only seconds after Fuller's remarks - the drummer counted off and then blasted into a feverish, up-tempo beat which subsequently morphed into the Sonny Rollins tune "Tenor Madness. Fuller didn't seem to mind one bit, as he stated the melody with much enthusiasm, swallowing his entire microphone with the mouth of his instrument.
At 71, Fuller sounded as though hardly a year had passed since his days as a Blue Note journeyman. He played with the same excitement and fluidity that originally earned him the status of being known asalong with J.J. Johnsonthe "filet of hard-bop trombone players.
Fuller, like the audience, seemed to get as much pleasure from his solos as he did from those of his young trumpeters, both of whom exuded a sense of unadulterated joy at the opportunity to play alongside the man that once shared the stage with luminaries such as Dizzy Gillespie, Lee Morgan and Art Farmer. The young men seemed to enjoy each other's solos and complimented each other upon their conclusions. Similarly, Fullerwho stood adjacent to Brownhumorously congratulated the dreadlocked-trumpeter by giving him the fist-to-fist, more contemporary version of the "high-five."
The group shifted gears for the second number for a laid-back, swinging rendition of Nat Adderley's classic tune "The Work Song, which was preceded by a lengthy anecdote by Fuller, who happened to be in a very talkative mood for much of the evening. Although these portions of the relatively short, approximately 50 minute-long program were both enjoyed and appreciated, part of me wished that they would have been substituted with a ballad, which the audience sadly never got to hear. All things being equal, however, the (according to Fuller) usually soft-spoken Hayes did take the microphone on one occasion to recognize his daughters, who happened to be in attendance for the set.
After a fine trio number led by Hicks who, like Fuller, was also a member of one of the 60s incarnations of Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, the band tackled the Fuller original "Arabia, which originally appeared on Blakey's 1961 Blue Note release Mosaic which was recently reissued by the label as part of its ongoing RVG series. Before the song, Fuller humorously noted that, when he first wrote the song, he "didn't know anything about bin Laden.
For the final number, Fuller chose the standard "A Night In Tunisia, which he said would feature Hayes, who had yet to play a true solo outside of trading fours near the end of each preceding song. It was before this tune that Fuller gave his lengthiest speech, wherein he recounted his relationship with the song's composer Dizzy Gillespie, whom Fuller credited with saving his career by giving him a job in his touring big band.

Built originally in the 18th Century as a crofters cottage, Stone Cottage provides magnificent views across Loch Leven, whilst the rear facing bedrooms provide scenic woodland views over the cottage grounds, which are close to one acre in size and include a stream and open waterways as well as a woodland which is a site of special scientific interest.
The cottage is a short stroll away from both Glencoe and Ballachullish villages, as well as being a few hundred yards for the popular gift and coffee shop 'Crafts and Things' which is an ideal place to relax and enjoy a leisurely breakfast or sample a fine selection of refreshments after your invigorating day out in the mountains.
In winter and early spring, look out for the deer in the garden, as they frequently come down to feed on the grass.
During the summer months, when the sun is shining, the rear garden is an excellent sun trap, and receives the sun for most of the day. Ideal for outside dining.
Both of our cottages consist of one double room. and one twin room.
These delightful stone cottages offer great comfort in a traditional built property. Both properties have wood burning stoves. Free Wi-fi is also provided
We look forward to welcoming you to Stone Cottage

The Story Behind Spanx
Oprah.com | January 01, 2008
With a pair of control-top panty hose in one hand and scissors in the other, Sara Blakely went from an everyday working woman who wanted her body to look flawless in white pants to the inventor of Spanx, a footless undergarment that has become a staple in the wardrobes of women worldwide. Sara talks with Jean about the success of Spanx and offers advice to women who want their great idea to become the next big thing.
Sara says Spanx wasn't exactly the result of intense market research. Instead, it was her take on improving an existing product and bringing it to the marketplace. "You are your own focus group, and when I saw this homemade solution worked better than anything else I could find or buy, I knew I was on to something," she says. "I didn't invent pantyhose, and I didn't invent shape wear. I took an existing product that had been around for over 40 years and cut the feet out of it and made a multimillion-dollar business."
If you have an idea for an invention or want to start your own business, Sara offers this advice:
Think positive.
"I often tell people to take mental snapshots of your future and what success looks like to you," Sara says. "If you mentally see yourself in a scenario, you will subconsciously start to make decisions in your life to get you there."
Your idea should either fill a need or improve an existing product.
If it doesn't do either of these things, Sara says your invention may not sell.
Get your product made.
It might take some perseverance, but without a finished product in hand, Sara says your idea may be hard to sell to buyers.
Come up with a clever name.
"If you can make someone laugh or smile with your product's name and marketing, you are going to get an extra 30 seconds with them," Sara says. Also, it is easier to trademark made-up words rather than a word that already exists, Sara says.

Webb Not Strong EnoughRating: 6/10
The Amazing Spider-Man begins with Peter Parker in high school. Though an amateur photographer, Peter's main interest is science - and he bluffs his way into an audience with his deceased father's ex-partner Dr Curt Connors. After impressing Connors with his knowledge of cross- species genetics, Peter enters a classified area and is bitten by a mutated spider. As his powers and secret identity develop, so too does his relationship with Connors protégé, and Parker's classmate, Gwen Stacey. But when the desperate Connors attempts to fight his personal weaknesses using the same untested method, he undergoes a more disastrous transformation into "The Lizard", a creature with a twisted view of how best to 'cure' humanity.The Amazing Spider-Man's origin story is undoubtedly an improvement on Raimi's Spider-Man, a decade prior. The characterisation is a lot more realistic, which makes it easier for the audience to feel Parker's teenage pain, awkwardness and ultimate escapism when he dons the guise of Spider-Man. Emma Stone's Gwen Stacey is also a welcome replacement for Mary-Jane, who's sole purpose in Raimi's films was either to moan or scream. Stacey by contrast, is an intelligent character in her own right, who doesn't shy away from getting her hands dirty when Spider- Man's in trouble. Rhys Ifans portrayal of Curt Connors has the same Jekyllian vulnerability seen in Mark Ruffallo's Bruce Banner earlier this year, although his motives are distorted somewhat as the film progresses.However, such interesting character development unfortunately does not hold together perfectly with the action. Of course, Spider-Man is foremost a movie that has to entertain; yet the cocky web-slinging CGI hero seems too unlike Garfield's brooding Peter Parker. The quality of the special effects is largely inconsistent, with POV scenes of Spider- Man diving around the city impressing greatly, whilst his actual battles with The Lizard are considerably less ambitious. The weighty retelling of Parker's familiar back-story also means that during the dénouement several large plot points, which could have expanded the action, are left undeveloped and so the ending is a little too simple and unsatisfactory.Webb has successfully addressed the new demand for superhero movies to be deeper and more human; yet he is not a director adept at providing big-budget action to an audience in the same way as Joss Whedon or Christopher Nolan. The Amazing Spider-Man is therefore the sum of two films, a satisfactory coming-of-age movie and an unchallenging action film. Unfortunately, Webb is not strong enough to convincingly hold the two together.

"My family got all over me because they said Bush is only for the rich people. Then I reminded them, 'Hey, I'm rich'."
Charles Barkley
"The trouble with telling a good story is that it invariably reminds the other fellow of a dull one."
Sid Caesar
"We need to be reminded that there is nothing morbid about honestly confronting the fact of life's end, and preparing for it so that we may go gracefully and peacefully."
Billy Graham
"Remind yourself regularly that you are better than you think you are. Successful people are not superhuman. Success does not require a super-intellect. Nor is there anything mystical about success. And success doesn't based on luck. Successful people are just ordinary folks who have developed belief in themselves and what they do. Never -- yes, never -- sell yourself short."
David Joseph Schwartz
"When I hear of an 'equity' in a case like this, I am reminded of a blind man in a dark room - looking for a black hat - which isn't there"
Charles Bowen
"But you are normal!" said Harry fiercely. "You've just got a-a problem-"Lupin burst out laughing. "Sometimes you remind me alot of James. He called it my 'furry little problem' in company. Many people were under the impression that I owned a badly behaved rabbit."
Joanne Kathleen Rowling
"If I were spiteful, I would remind you that it is only fitting that a twisted, narcissistic psychopath, obsessed with public attention, will soon have his world reduced to an isolated solitary existence in an 80-square-foot cell doomed to languish away the rest of your miserable life, alone,"
