Joan Snyder has been a well-known and respected American feminist painter for almost five decades. Sometimes exhibits of Snyder's work have included a few of her prints, but the attention has been mainly on paintings.
Now for the first time there's a major retrospective exhibit devoted entirely to her prints. There are 66 works in the exhibit, titled "Dancing With the Dark," which opens Friday, Sept. 14, at the University of New Mexico Art Museum.
"She's been painting since the mid-1960s though she's also been making prints since the '60s. Many people didn't know she was making prints throughout her career. I guess they were focusing on her paintings," said Marilyn Symmes, the curator of prints and drawings at Rutgers University's Zimmerli Art Museum.
Symmes and Snyder organized the traveling exhibit that originated at the Zimmerli.
Symmes believes the artist, who received a MacArthur "Genius" Grant in 2007, has taken a special approach to printmaking.
"Usually the process of prints is to make as many as you can that are replicated so each impression is the same. What Joan does is work against that process," she said.
"Usually people like to work only in woodcut or lithography (or other techniques). In the 1990s she started to combine techniques, and she decided to hand-color different impressions so each is slightly different."
What Symmes finds remarkable about Snyder's prints is that they're "very painterly with her color application and reflect her interest as a painter."
Her prints, she said, mediate between her interest in expressionist and abstract art, and that dual interest as painter carries over to the subjects in her prints.
Snyder's art has explored themes expressed through the lens of her personal experience, such as female sexuality, motherhood, mortality and outrage at injustice, according to a printed gallery guide for visitors to the exhibit.
Symmes said Snyder's most autobiographical print is the 1997 "My Work."
At the bottom of the print are the words stating that her work "has been absolutely faithful to me. In the center there's a heart. It's part heart, part valentine, part female sexual anatomy, the life-giving part of a woman. And it also speaks to the creative force," the curator said.
Surrounding the image are aspects and materials in the art-making process, and there are words related to myriad subjects – such as moon, totems, symphonies, blossoms, she said.
All of those subjects, and others, allude either to what has inspired Snyder's work, are depicted in it or incorporated in it in some way, Symmes said.
Another work in the show that addresses the artist's contributions to feminist art and history is "Our Foremothers" (1995), she said.
"It's a very colorful print of different women's names. When you probe further, you see these are names mentioned … in the Old Testament. To that list she's added the names of her mother, grandmother, daughter, sister and her partner," Symmes said.
"It celebrates the triumph of women in the Biblical past who helped to promote the rights of women and who took on challenges … and how they've overcome them."
Snyder, who has art studios in Brooklyn, N.Y., and Woodstock, N.Y., has shown her art at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, at the National Museum of Women in the Art in Washington, D.C., and at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, among other museum venues.

Common Causes of Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a skin condition in which skin cells multiply faster than normal. An overabundance of dead skin cells produces scaly "plaques" on the skin. Dermatologists believe that issues with the immune system are the major underlying cause of most psoriasis. Episodes of psoriasis can be triggered by stress and other illnesses, such as infections, which can affect the immune system and thus allow psoriasis symptoms to worsen. Other common triggers of psoriasis include skin injuries, certain medications, and changes in the weather—particularly temperature and humidity. Psoriasis is also believed to be genetic; this condition runs in families, though it may skip generations. Although psoriasis has no long-term cure, working with your dermatologist to determine your personal triggers and developing treatments to address the symptoms when they do occur can help you manage the health of your skin.
Chicago Cosmetic Surgery and Dermatology offers diagnosis and treatment of psoriasis and other skin conditions that include melasma, warts, rashes, and acne. You can learn more about our treatment options in Chicago by calling (877) 410-3027 or clicking through our comprehensive website.

Wall Street Journal reporter Lee Hawkins recently sat down with Bellator CEO Bjorn Rebney to talk about the growth of Bellator, where it's headed, where the sport of mixed martial arts is headed and what challenges remain for the Bellator brand to succeed.
Look, Rebney is clearly a bright guy. His personal lexicon always tells me he's got a healthy appreciation for numbers and being cognizant of financial realities. And the success of Bellator is in no uncertain terms a boon for the sport of MMA.
All that said, Hawkins either took this assignment unwittingly or did not do his homework or both.
MMA's audience has some overlap with boxing, but not much. That MMA is slowly supplanting boxing as the dominant combat sport in North America or at least the combat sport of choice is true. But it's not drawing away the core boxing audience. Boxing fans aren't leaving their sport for MMA, at least not many of them. MMA's audience is much more a crossover of the professional wrestling crowd (much to my personal dismay) and a new segment of fight fans who were never fight fans before. The assertion that MMA's market share is growing at boxing's expense is mistaking causation for correlation.
And while Bellator being on MTV2 is certainly intriguing, the challenges are even greater for the brand at this level. First, non-UFC MMA tends to trend toward older audiences, something the MTV2 platform doesn't readily offer. If the play by Bellator is to be on Spike if and when the UFC jumps for NBC, then ok, that's smart. But if the strategy is to milk an audience that isn't really there, well, use your imagination.
Third, the piece doesn't mention Strikeforce. After the UFC, there isn't much MMA market share left. After UFC and Strikeforce, the pickings are even slimmer. The easiest explanation for this from my vantage point is traffic. We cover Bellator because, again, the promotion puts on meaningful and exciting fights. But if we were concerned with manpower resources and had to make a choice to not cover it to prioritize for the bigger leagues, we would. And that's important because with this new MTV2 deal, Bellator is going head-to-head with Strikeforce.
Everyone in MMA is so sensitive and naturally cheer leads any sort of effort that being a critical voice often results in angry emails or general ostracism. But at some point, we have to be candid with the challenges, institutional roadblocks and actually ask, "can this work?". So, can Bellator work? Maybe, but I don't like the odds in this fight.

Have A Birthday Campaign? Don't Make This Mistake!
Posted By Rebekah Henson On May 2, 2013 @ 8:19 am In Email Marketing | 9 Comments
Imagine this: It's your birthday. You check your email and see a message from your bank. "Happy Birthday from Capital One 360!" says the subject line.
Lots of businesses send out birthday greeting to their customers, often with coupons or free offers. Hey, maybe the bank is giving my savings account some extra interest!
Of course, that's not what banks do for birthdays. And while I appreciated the thought from Capital One, their birthday email got a couple of things wrong. If you're thinking of launching a birthday campaign [1], learn from this big brand's mistakes.
Here's the whole email:
The one thing I like about it and have to give them props for? Their cheerful tone [3]. It's cute and light without deviating from their brand. And it's appropriate for a birthday wish.
Now, onto the not-so-good things.
I'm a marketing nerd (you kind of have to be to blog about email marketing as your full-time job!). So I got kind of excited to see Capital One integrating video with their birthday wish. I was curious to see what they'd do.
I clicked the link [4] and pressed "play." I hadn't read the YouTube description yet. And an inspirational message about the importance of happiness unfurled across the screen, stop-motion style.
Okay, this is kind of cool. When do we get to the birthday part? Wait, we don't? Then I read the description:
"This short video stems from our list of Savers Resolutions, where the number one resolution is: We will spend more time with the people in our lives who matter most – and spend less money on things that really don't matter at all."
It wasn't a birthday video at all! It's just something they recycled from a previous campaign.
Now, I'm all for repurposing content [5]. But this is the wrong way to do it. At least edit the YouTube description with a "Happy Birthday" wish. Or upload a new version of the same video with "We wish you happiness on your birthday," tacked on as the last frame. Give it something to make it relevant to my day!
The second fail is probably worse than the first – the sign-off. "Enjoy many more, Saver."
"Saver?" Really? May I direct your attention to my first name in the opening? Clearly they know who I am.
This email would have been much better off with a personalized closing. "Enjoy your day, Rebekah." There. Was that so hard?
You're wishing me a happy birthday and my name isn't "Saver."
Personal communication goes a long way in making your customers feel valued, especially in a birthday greeting.
There was nothing personal about this email, aside from the fact that my date of birth is in their system. It's not always just the thought that counts. A little personalization – and a quick and simple tweak to their video – would have saved this email.
What about you? Have you received a half-hearted birthday greeting from a company? Are you guilty of maybe sending something like this yourself? What did you learn from the experience?

Parliament would do a better job of cutting spending than any number of government committees
The new government is plainly serious about tackling the debt crisis. The small but symbolic cuts – getting rid of ministerial cars, scrapping quangos – are every bit as important as the speeches about blood, toil, sweat and tears. So far, so good.
The promise of a "Star Chamber" is no doubt supposed to convey the same message. The Star Chamber was a mediaeval court in which cases could be tried with no witnesses, no juries and no appeal. Still, I'm not sure it's the happiest of metaphors. James I discovered that he could use the Star Chamber as a way to levy additional revenue through what were, in effect, arbitrary fines. His son, Charles I, extended the practice, which allowed him to rule autocratically for eleven years.
The Star Chamber, and the abuse of royal prerogative which it represented, was one of the chief grievances of what was to become the parliamentary opposition. In the end, a civil war had to be fought to establish the principle that only House of Commons might raise revenue for central government through taxation.
This point cannot be stressed strongly enough. We don't need any more quangos, watchdogs or agencies to oversee government spending. We have Parliament to do that. We should let MPs fulfil their ancient function.

I recently placed my first order with SunnySports. It is always a little unnerving when placing an order with a company for the first time. My first order experience was fine--the item was in-stock as indicated on the website (I actually called my order in); I received an email with tracking info, the correct items arrived in good condition on the day predicted (5 days including a weekend!).
May I say that my experience with SunnySports has been nothing but complete satisfaction, Your prices are superior to any other website, your customer service has been most helpful, your shipping and packing of my items has also been the best around (My items were packed like you cared, not just packed.) I ordered 3 of your Black diamond Spire elliptical poles and they arrived undamaged and with the speed of lighting. Once again Sunnysports will be on the top of my list for any further purchases. And I will recommend you to all my Friends
My order arrived quickly, great price, wonderful product, and free shipping. What more could I ask for.
I have ordered a lot of products on the internet and have been ripped off by sites like.... , etc. Sunnysports was great throughout the process. Ordered three backpacks but I didn't like mine and was able to return it without a problem and got my product in three days and my refund just as fast. The prices are cheaper than any other company on the net or off. I will recommend Sunnysports to anyone and will be back myself. Good job!
I am so extremely pleased with my order & the customer service I received from sunnysports.com. I ordered two north face denali jackets that were both very high in demand. I placed my order on Friday, received an email on Sunday informing me that there was a problem with my card, so I called Monday morning to fix the problem, the man on the phone was very helpful and assuring, and the item was at my doorstep by Tuesday afternoon. My order was over $50, so I paid absolutely nothing for my shipping, and I was extremely pleased that the product arrived so quickly, in perfect condition. Thank you Sunny Sports!
I don't normally do the feedback thing but my order shipped really fast, they had what I needed in stock and it was at the best price on the internet with free shipping/no tax on my order.I will check their website first for my future camping purchases. Thanks!!!
My order arrived quickly and everything was perfect. Thank you!
Hello, we received our order yesterday 8-4 and the shipping was super fast. we bought the kelty 2.1 kids carrier and the Kelty wallaby child carrier. both were shipped perfect and great shape. we just want to say thankyou for excellent service and we will do business with you again and will tell all our friends. Thanks,
Excellent Shipment and Products
Thank you SunnySports
Great company! Very, Very fast delivery! Will recommend to my friends!

text: Wife of Clippers Owner Wants to Own Team Print article Send a Tip by Breitbart California 8 May 2014 post a comment Shelly Sterling, the wife of embattled Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling, is hoping she can become the owner of the Clippers. According to the Los Angeles Times, Shelly Sterling believes the NBA's lifetime ban on Donald Sterling does not apply to "me or my family." Longtime Clippers broadcaster Ralph "Oh Me Oh My" Lawler, who is also the the Clippers' longest-serving employee, told the Times that though it was understandable that Shelly Sterling wanted to keep the time many in the organization want to move on: "I think in the eyes of the players and the coaching staff and the basketball staff, the page has been turned, and I think it would be difficult to turn it back," Lawler said. That may apply to much of the NBA as well: Players, fans and other owners have signaled that they would like to see a fresh start for the Los Angeles franchise, which is in the midst of a playoff run in what could be its most successful season after decades of mediocrity. Ownership by any of the Sterlings could mean a continued flight of sponsors and a potential boycott from players and fans. ... The NBA had no immediate response to Shelly Sterling's desire to keep the team. On Wednesday, in the comments provided to The Times by her representatives, she said she had retained a law firm to guide her in her ownership quest. Should ownership be transferred to Shelley Sterling, she still may need to be approved by the other owners, which is no guarantee in light accusations of racism against her in the past. Sterling allegedly impersonated an inspector to harass minority tenants. There have been indications that a potential sale of the Clippers could be delayed if the Sterlings formally file for divorce.

Hi there,
I know, that the Boomkin is a weak one in terms of defensive cooldowns, but I´m sure there can be tipps to improve my defensive play.
Every now and then, when running rnd battlegrounds, there are balance druids, which are extremely hard to kill, so I believe there is something deep in this class, that makes it powerfull after it is achieved.
So looking for general tipps, macros, theory or whatever can help to survive better in arena. (playing boomkin/dk/healmonk)
There are plenty of guides for pve, only a few for pvp, and those almost only cover the offensive strategies.
Perhaps someone could take a look on my for reforging tipps or anything. Did it without big research. (cannot post links yet, see name below)
I do not play wow for long now and there are many things, I totally do not know about.
thanks for any tipps you can give,
and have a nice day:)

AVON, Conn. — The game had already swung violently in Phillips Academy's favor.
The Big Blue, which had trailed by as many as 22 points late in the third quarter, had exploded in the fourth quarter to tie the Jack Etter Bowl, and took the ball back with less than two minutes left when Alex Tolentino made a stop on fourth down to cause a turnover.
Phillips then went for the kill.
"We had taken the momentum and they were back on their heals a little," said Phillips coach Leon Modeste. "So we decided to go over the top."
Quarterback Ian Maag faked a bubble screen, and when the defense bit he went long for a 65-yard touchdown to Matt Rusk-Kosa.
That scored capped off a wild rally and gave Phillips the Jack Etter Bowl title, 35-28 victory over Brunswick.
The win marked the Big Blue's first postseason win since 1999, and emphatically closed out a perfect 9-0 season, their first unbeaten campaign since 1995.
"This has just been a storybook season," said Modeste. "Two years ago we were 0-8 and now we are 9-0 and have won a title. We really went from worst to first."
For most of three quarters, it seemed the Big Blue's magic season might end on a sour note.
Brunswick took an early lead then, after Phillips' Mike Moore responded with a touchdown, the Dragons scored the next three touchdowns to take a 28-6 lead late in the third.
"We were missing on everything," said Modeste. "Missing coverages, dropping passes. We were just flat. But we learned during this season there is no quit in this team. The next thing we knew, (Ryder) Stone was going crazy."
Stone, a postgrad running back, simply took the game over. He scored a 28-yard touchdown late in the third, then added fourth-quarter TDs of 3 yards and 37 yards to tie the score 28-28 late in the fourth.

Very good service, friendly staff, but design too , "local" & flashy, room was excellent, except for low speed wifi connection. I would recommend it for a business stay.

Nice hotel- but not worth the pricePosted Feb 1, 2013 on Hotels.com
I can't really find any faults with this hotel-other than slow internet- but nothing spectacular either. The included breakfast buffet was very good. However it just didn't seem like a 5-star hotel. If it carried a 4-star rating, and was a little cheaper, I would be raving about it.

text: Smart Way Back to Work After Maternity Leave Returning to work after maternity leave the first time can cause stress for many women. Not only because the adjustment back work environment, but also can make women feel about her role as a career woman as well as mothers. Some experts believe that women take about four months of maternity leave before it is ready to work again, but most women only get six to eight weeks of leave. Here are ways to make the transition as smooth as possible as reported by Foxnews.com, Thursday (08/12/2011): A. Go back to work in the middle of the week Experts recommend to begin work in the middle of the week, so the first working week was short. Many women found work only one or two days in the first week or so. "The smooth transition, the more productive he is at work," said Chris Paul, director of the Center for Work and Family in Rockville, Md.. 2. Talking about babies Many women fear talking about their babies in the workplace, because people will assume that he hoped to be home, not at work. But if you feel that your colleague is not available to talk about it, keep your baby's story for yourself. "Speaking of babies can build relationships with others in the workplace. People talk about his personal life all the time at work, so it is natural to talk about the kids," said Jamie Ladge, assistant professor of management at Northeastern University in Boston. 3. Give yourself time to adjust. "When the women returned to work, they have tried to integrate the fluctuations and how to act as a professional with his new role as a mother," said Ladge. Women may take a while to adjust to the new identity and learn how to synchronize work and home responsibilities. 4. Ask for flexible hours. Many employees, both women and men, to negotiate a schedule that is not too stiff and can relieve stress by working on the 9:00 to 18:00 o'clock. Talk to other employees who may have done the same way to find out tips- tricks. "You may be afraid that people will think poorly of you if you request it, but if you do not ask, you will not get it," said Ladge. 5. Ignore comments in italics. One could say openly or secretly about the new changes in the performance of women who give birth. Your boss may say, "I hope you are not one of the women who are no longer committed to 100 percent after having a baby". Laugh, but do not work twice as hard to prove that he was wrong. 6. Be sure to explain everything to the boss. Be communicative about what they want from a job that is not ruled out by the employer because of an inaccurate assumption that you are now is a mother. 7. Find Help If you have received help from parents or housekeeper, then it is time to return to work. Assistance in cleaning house and cooking can help young mothers feel less tired. 8. Plan your morning routine. One of the most important thing is the division of labor between women and couples. Whom and when that will bathe the baby, who will keep the baby, feed, take the baby to daycare, make dinner, and pick up your baby. 9. Infant-feeding alternative night. If the mother is always giving milk when the baby is hungry in the middle of the night, he will be exhausted in the morning. Try to take turns with her husband. 10. Do not try to be super-mom. Understand that women can not do everything alone. Some things you may need to be sacrificed, like a perfectly clean house or cook dinner.

Figure 8s and descenders are used to apply friction to the climbing line and control the rate of descent. In case of an emergency, a figure eight or mechanical descender like the Gri Gri allows the tree climber to make a rapid descent. Scroll down for mechanical descenders like the Gri Gri II, Petzl Rig and Petzl ID.
Aluminum standard eight is lightweight, compact, and dissipates heat well. Anodized aluminum stands up well to use.
Video Overview by Niceguydave.
Easy to rig when wearing gloves, this compact 8 has smooth action. Anodized aluminum. Weighs 2.9 oz. 4.6" long. Made in the U.S.A.
Seattle Manufacturing Company's Descend Control stainless eight is lightweight, tough, with exceptional control of acceleration, rappelling speed, and stopping. Wider shoulders help prevent girth hitching the rope. Made in the U.S.A.
Russ Anderson / SMC figure 8 with ears is a classic design and is rated to NFPA 'T' on 9.5mm to 12.5mm rope, and NFPA 'G' on 11m to 16mm rope. Anodized aluminum. 7,194 lb breaking strength (32 kN). 6" x 5.25" x .5". Weighs 6.5 oz (184g). Made in the U.S.A.
Aluminum bent-ear figure eight, sometimes called a rescue 8, it dissipates heat well, is lightweight, and has long bent ears to prevent the rope from locking up during descent. Colors may vary.
Video Overview by Niceguydave.
This steel figure eight is very popular for its high strength. Uses include personal belay, rescue, and rigging. The steel figure eight has long bent ears to prevent the rope from locking up during descent. Popular for rescue kits or as an inexpensive lowering device. 11,250 lb (50 kN) break strength.
New descender from Sterling Rope incorporates the best of tube, plate, and figure 8 style devices into one compact and durable tool. This unique device allows multiple friction settings on rappel as well as auto lock-off belay options. The ATS incorporates the best parts of a tube or plate device and a figure 8 with 'hyper-horns' into one compact, durable frame.
Video Overview by Niceguydave.
The Petzl Pirana is a unique descender with three different braking positions, two supplementary braking spurs, and a small carabiner hole for a "rigid" carabiner/descender unit which helps to keep the descender positioned correctly. The carabiner hole will only fit Petzl carabiners, and is meant to be a tight fit.
Rock Exotica Mini-eight features side ears that let you easily vary friction, and is super compact - great for an emergency descender. Carabiner hole has rubber gasket that fits tightly on a Rock Exotica or Petzl carabiner. Only 3.6" long! Made in the U.S.A.
Designed for firefighters in bailout situations, compact aluminum 8 is perfect for your bail-out kit. Works on a wide range of ropes; smaller ropes when doubled up to 7.5mm, and single up to 12.5 mm (1/2"). Weighs 1.7 oz (48g). Made in the U.S.A.
This new aluminum rescue 8 has two ears on one side to make adding wraps for a more controlled descent quicker than ever. Quick and complete control over how much friction you want to slow your descent. Breaking Strength 5,000 lb. (22 kN). Made in the U.S.A.
This Descender from ISC features some unique features for a handled descender. The handle is aluminum and coated for grip, and designed to rotate 360°, making it easier to use and switch between allowing the rope to run and locking the device. Each station in the rotation is accompanied by a "Click" so that you have the audio feedback in addition to the feel of switching the position. Features an anti-panic brake if the handle is rotated too far by an inexperienced user.
The D4 has a great video and manual on the D4 descender page.
5 1/2" x 3 1/4", weighs 23 oz, and works with ropes from 10.5mm to 11mm (7/16").
New version in 2011 is 20% lighter and 25% more compact! The Gri Gri is an extremely popular descender which uses a handle to control the rate of descent. When the handle is released, the Gri Gri self-brakes and engages the cam to halt descent. The Gri Gri can be used in conjunction with a handled rope ascender and foot loop for short ascents in the sit/stand climbing method. Works with ropes with a maximum diameter of 7/16" (11mm.)
7/16" (8.9 - 11.5 mm max capacity), compact, easy to use.
Rated: Excellent Review by: Jimmy
"had a grigri now for 3 years, it's used 3 days a week and it is still as good as the first day I bought it..! now I want grigri 2 "
Designed for professionals, the Rig allows the user to move into position then easily stop where needed. This descender is compact and intuitive to use, making for smooth descents. A simple and effective alternative to more traditional descenders. Automatic return system on the handle. Pivoting cam facilitates taking up the slack in the rope. Can also be used to make a reversible haul system, and for short ascents (in conjunction with a FOOTPRO foot loop and an ASCENSION handled rope clamp). Single ropes between 10.5 and 11.5 mm in diameter (7/16" ). Weighs 380 grams. Instructions included.
This self-braking descender and belay device for single rope replaces a figure 8 or friction knot. The handle allows the rope to move, and descent is controlled with the free hand. If handle is released the cam is engaged and descent stops. Anti-panic device automatically brakes if the handle is pulled too far. Two models available: I'D S accepts up to 7/16" (11mm) rope. I'D L accepts up to 1/2" (13mm) rope.
The Petzl Stop descender is an alternative to a figure 8 designed to work on single ropes with a max diameter of 7/16" (11mm.) The handle works like an on/off switch, stopping descent when released and allowing descent when squeezed. Rate of descent is controlled by the grip on the free end of the rope. Installation instructions are stamped into the faceplate.
The U-Rack utilizes Hyper bars which makes it easy to add friction or lock off the device. The rack dissipates heat excellently while still giving the needed amount of friction for long rappels. SMC tests their equipment in the user configuration which gives very accurate ratings. This rack is designed to run on ropes from 7-12.5mm and has a MBS range of 8kN to 22kN which corresponds with ropes you would use it with. At 9" x 3' it is the most compact rack from SMC.
SMC U-Rack assemblies are the only such U-Racks which are UL-Certified to the current NFPA standards. U-Rack may be used as either a rappel or lowering device. U-Rack does not twist rope, as can occur when using a figure 8 type of descender. U-Rack may be used with single or double ropes of varying diameters. User may adjust friction by simply wrapping rope around the tie-off bar(s). Stainless steel frame, stainless steel tie-off bars & brake bars. Weighs 26.6 oz. 9.6" long.
With the SMC J rack, you can build your own rappel bar assembly by adding the brake and tie-off bars you want.

Not bad. Larger banquet facilities. I wanted a king suite but it wasn't available. Room was larger and clean. Bathroom was roomy. Tub/shower made a terrible noise while using. Bed was comfortable. Courteous staff. A little too close to traffic for me. Nice restaurant. Reasonable food prices. Ten dollar breakfast buffet added to room price is a deal.

2013 Pato Frio Cashmere Rose, Ribafreixo(6x75cl)
A mix of lychee and ripe tropical fruit. Soft mouthfeel, with exuberant freshness and a minerally finish.
2007 Castel Viel, Domaine de Prés Lasses(6x75cl)
Deep ruby in the glass with garrigue, violet, and spice notes on the nose. Elegant, clean and pure, it coats the palate with dense, fine tannins and vibrant fruit. A well-proportioned, mature, full-bodied wine, with a long spicy finish.
NV Les Rouliers, Henri Bonneau(12x75cl)
You don't find many Vin de Table of this quality. An explosive nose of strawberry jam, fig, black cherry with animal and tobacco notes. Similar flavours are found on the palate. Supple, savory, superb.
2010 Joseph Hill Gewurztraminer, Henschke(6x75cl)
Pale gold in colour. Lifted perfumed aromas of lychee, Turkish delight and rose petal with tropical hints. The palate shows perfumed fruits and is sweet and spicy, richly flavoured, a nice
texture with crisp acidity and good length.
2010 Long Meadow Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon(12x75cl)
The nose has notes of blackberries, the briar patch, cedar, dried herbs and a hint of smoky black tea. The palate is structured and refreshingly generous with additional flavors of dried plums, cherry and cola. The well-knit tannins and pleasant mouthwatering acidity support a persistent finish laced with rich notes of cedar and vanilla.
2011 Pouilly Fuissé Clos sur la Roche, Domaine Saumaize Michelin(6x75cl)
Fragrant minerals, white fruit and floral aromas are abundant on the nose. It is powerfull and concentrated on the palate with plenty of peach, apple and ripe pear fruits coating its multi faceted mineral edge. The finish stays full and stony, with a citrus finish.
2012 Tilly's Vineyard Dry White, Henschke(6x75cl)
Grapefruit, nectarine and peach flavours on the nose together with a tantalising grassy note from the Sauvignon Blanc. The ensemble is a really refreshing wine with plenty of zippy freshness on the finish.
2012 Deidesheimer Mäushöhle, von Buhl(6x75cl)
Pale lemon yellow with piercing mineral aromas and crisp, ripe fruit on the nose. It is pure on the palate, with no oak and refreshing minerality; it manages to be mouthfilling without a hint of heaviness and has a long finish.
2010 Mount Edelstone Shiraz, Henschke(6x75cl)
Deep crimson in colour with a purple hue. Powerful, ripe aromas of blackberry and plum with complexing hints of star anise, ferns, eucalypt and dark chocolate. The palate is an intense and concentrated blend of sweet, juicy plum pudding fruit and structured ripe tannin. With mouthfilling power, seamless texture and lingering finish the wine displays the hallmark characters of the Mount Edelstone vineyard in one of its greatest years.
2012 Pato Frio Red Edition, Ribafreixo(6x75cl)
A blend of plum, wild berry and spice, with a hint of dark chocolate.

Clients walking into La Bella Delle Rose Salon might sense a warm, personal aesthetic shaping the styling studio, even if they don't know that the dark-wood reception desk was hand-built by the owner's father. Sherbet-colored walls backdrop ice-cream-themed decorations, a popcorn machine commingles with the coffeemaker in the waiting area, and a manicure station recalls a fortune-teller's table with its scarlet damask draping. While basking in Pureology hair treatments or being prepped for weddings and other landmark occasions, guests sit beneath studio lighting, which helps them tell stylists apart from IRS agents.
Michelle Schwertner at HeadQuarters Barber Salon at Legacy Village has been cutting hair for more than 30 years, bringing a generation of experience to her cuts, styling, and straight-razor shaves. Her treatments pamper with niceties such as scalp massages and hot towels, and clients leave looking polished with complimentary ear, nose, and eyebrow trims. The shop also sells shampoo, conditioner, gel, and other men's haircare products by MENSDEPT, as well as posh neck ties to complement fresh cuts.
Candles flicker inside the marble fireplace, sending droplets of light into the colonial revival–style home, built in the 1920s, that houses Quintana's Barber & Dream Spa. Hardwood floors and tan leather seating compose a warm color palette, and WiFi—installed by the ghost of the original architect—keeps busy guests connected. After appointment reminders land in their email inboxes, clients step into the earth-toned sanctuary for services ranging from basic mani-pedis and beard trims to all-day spa excursions. Guests pluck from a menu of massages, facials, waxing, and haircare, and such treatments are combined in packages for individuals and couples.
Quintana's soothing sanctuary doesn't just speak for itself. Patrons banded together to vote the salon into CityVoter's top five for Best Barber in 2009 and Best Manicure and Pedicure in 2009 and 2010. The spa's acclaim page also spotlights press recognition of Friendliest Staff, Best-Looking Storefront, and Most Helpful Combs.
jcpenney portraits' professional photographers capture paramount moments in premier lighting with high-tech digital cameras and a choice of vivid background images. After clients discuss pose preferences with their portraitist, subjects take the stage for approximately 10 minutes of flashing bulbs, bright smiles, and focused lenses. Following the shoot, customers and friendly photogs pore over digital frames to select which pictures are worthy of being immortalized onto six single-image enhanced sheets in a variety of sizes; customers can choose a different pose for each photo sheet, for a total of six poses. Customers receive one 10"x13", two 8"x10", two 5"7", four 3.5"x5", eight wallet-size, and one specialty-size (10"x10" or smaller) Be Squared portrait, all of which are ready to be wall-mounted alongside each other in a courageous declaration of self-love. A CD with one high-resolution image is also included. Customers may take an additional 40% off any purchases made that day.
To call The Body Shop a mere skin and body care store is to miss half of what makes it special. Late founder Dame Anita Roddick was a pioneer for ethical business practices; upon opening her first store in Brighton, England, in 1976, she developed company values such as "Defend Human Rights" and "Protect The Planet." She somehow balanced principles and profit, partnering in global campaigns with UNICEF, Greenpeace, Amnesty International, and the United Nations, all while ultimately expanding her brand into 2,500 locations in over 60 international markets. After her death in 2007, then-British Prime Minister Gordon Brown said, ?She campaigned for green issues for many years before it became fashionable to do so and inspired millions to the cause by bringing sustainable products to a mass market. . . . She was an inspiration.?
Indeed, the Body Shop exhibits an eco-friendliness and social consciousness that's hard to come by in a company of its size. Its products have been fair-trade since 1987, and its Against Animal Testing movement led to an EU-wide ban of animal testing of cosmetics. The products are made from ingredients harvested from around the world: shea butter from Ghana goes into body scrubs and butters, and Indian artisans craft wooden massagers and tote bags that are screenprinted by hand. But all that isn't to say the company's production practices overshadow its final products. Skincare treatments such as the brand?s iconic body butters, facial products, and gift collections often appear in Allure, Marie Claire, Lucky, Seventeen and other national publications.
At Beauty Oasis, clients are guaranteed to be the center of attention. That's because the cozy salon is designed to service just one guest at a time. So there's no crowded salon to worry about or magazines to pretend to read. When clients arrive, stylist Kathy Alali is ready to pamper them with haircare and skincare services. Nonetheless, the salon still offers complimentary WiFi, coffee, and tea.

Offshoot of the vacation question below
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 01-09-2004 - 7:36pm
We don't have too much of a problem.
July is my busiest time so I can't take vacation then. But any other time I want vacation I just put it on the calender and let my boss know few days before.
It is a little trickier for DH. His vacation has to be planned around projects and also when other people will be out (first come first serve). If he asks for the vacation time early enough then sometimes they can schedule projects around him rather then us having to schedule vacation around projects. So we have to plan out our vacation time within the first couple of week of January (especially if we want to take during a prime time like spring break).
There has only been one time when it was an issue. We had planned our vacation for the first week of August. Then he got scheduled to take a class that week so we had to move our vacation to the last week of July. Luckily my boss did not hold me to the no vacation in July rule.

Now that both boys are in school full time we plan our vacations around school holidays.

Actually, not having 2 woh ft parents makes travel planning much easier. We consider it one of the perks.

"Do any of you in dual working families have problems coordinating vacation time together?"
Not in the sense of not being permitted to take vacations at the same time - more as a result of workload.
