Perfect cabin for our week-long stay!
This cabin was perfect for our stay in Ruidoso! We enjoyed the hot tub and building a fire in the fireplace to make smores. We even had deer come up to the deck and eat apples out of my son's hand!! The house was clean and ready to go for us when we arrived. The kitchen was well-stocked with cookware and utensils and I taught my kids how to play rummy at the kitchen table in the evenings. We highly recommend Cornerstone Cafe for breakfast and goodies (french toast is amazing!) and Grill Caliente for dinner (tacos, salad, and burgers were delish). Mountain biking down Ski Apache was a blast and you will see beautiful views when hiking around Grindstone Lake. Also, if time allows, spend the day driving out to White Sands to go sledding (!!) and take the road home through the quaint town of Cloudcroft. The views are also amazing! We also spent a day at Ruidoso Downs, betting on the ponies. Ruidoso is charming, full of friendly people, adorable boutiques and we look forward to visiting again:: this time in the winter! Thank you Fawn Ridge Cabin!!
Cozy, quiet cottage
The area in which the cottage is located is very peaceful, which is what we were looking for as a break from big city life. The neighborhood is a mix of full-time and vacationing residents. The cottage reminded us of going to see grandma in that it's older yet homey and comfortable. The wraparound porch is a great place to hang out, and we enjoyed having our morning coffee and tea there while looking at the view. For most of our stay there was a constant cool breeze, which was great in that we could open up the screened windows and doors. It got a little toasty the final three days we were there, so the window AC unit was put to use in the early afternoon through mid-evening. Otherwise, the windows and doors were open. A ventilation fan in the bathroom is needed, but it's not something that is unmanageable. The owners are great communicators and responsive, something that is a big plus in our book. The breakfast table is a good spot for putting together a jigsaw puzzle. Our dogs enjoyed the stay, too, and made friends with two of the local dogs. There's great exercise in the form of walking to be had. Steep hills, so if you go down, you must walk back up. We enjoyed our daily walks and took different routes to see where we'd end up. There are many deer in the area. They come out in the early morning and early evening. They're part of the neighborhood, in that you'll see people in their yards and the deer will be nearby munching away on vegetation. We also liked the cottage's location because it is close to town without being in town. A short drive down the hill and we were in town. Glad for our stay.
Wonderful location, peaceful, quiet!
Cabin was in a perfect location for all the activities we wanted to do. The area is peaceful & quiet & had all the amenities of home. We visited White Sands, Smokey the Bear State Park & took the scenic drive up to Ski Apache. Breathtaking views! If you are looking for a place to stay away from the 'tourist crowd', I would definitely recommend this cabin. We had a lovely time!

Probably the very best of Jo Ellen LaRue Thomas' recipes is the one that didn't make print last week. That is the Caramel Italian Cream Cake.
I know this will be popular with many of you, even my one student that always tells me every time I see her she says, "Mrs. Sweat, I think of you every time I make an Italian Cream Cake."
A group of friends have decided to try to get healthier, encouraging each other along the way.
Typically, when we gather weekly the table is spread with a variety of munchies, snacks and desserts. These don't lean on the healthy or low-calorie side.
Melvin Montgomery enjoys serving in the school system where he grew up.
Montgomery, 62, has spent 18 years at Helmwood Heights Elementary School as a school custodian. He calls Helmwood his family.
"It's more than a job, (it's) a calling from God," Montgomery said.
Adjusting the thin, wooden sticks in her grasp, Paige Pence awaited the cue and then jabbed at pieces of wrapped candy across the table from her.
Like the other half-dozen participants in the candy-grab game, Pence, 13, of Glendale, discovered — in addition to the confections — the fun she derived from the activity was a treat.
Elizabethtown Community and Technical College is hosting an art exhibit through Sept. 11 in the Morrison Art Gallery.

The News-Enterprise
"When the Game Stands Tall" is based on the true story of coach Bob Ladouceur and the De La Salle High School Spartans football team.
The team builds a 151-game winning streak, but things start to go wrong and the character of the team is tested.
I teach a group of senior high school girls Sunday mornings at church and our lesson this past week was about rest. It specifically was speaking of the Sabbath, but can be applied to rest in general.
For most of us, our lives are a busy, chaotic mess.
Kathryn Spalding always has seen life as an adventure and claims to be fearless.
Above the door of her classroom, she would place the words "carpe diem" for students to see as they left. She tried to prepare them to seize every day and to learn the value of the written word.
When I was younger, my sister and I had certain household chores. Not always, but most of the time, we kind of banded together with my mother to keep on top of things such as washing dishes, sweeping floors and cleaning bathrooms. My dad was and still is the cook of the family — taking everything he makes seriously, even if it's beans and cornbread.
Most people will agree that a good bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich is hard to beat. Whatever it is about that combination of flavors is something wonderful.
During the season when you can get tomatoes fresh out of the garden, a good BLT is a delicacy. At least at my house it is. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

Subject: Counties & Parent Counties Info Available
Date: Sun, 21 May 2000 13:39:38 EDT
I have a book that lists United States counties along with the county seat,
parent counties, date originated, date of first census, and missing
censuses--as of 1965. If you need county information, let me know.
The book is "The Counties of the United States and Their Genealogical Value"
by E. Kay Kirkham. It also lists states that have census schedules
available , explanations of Federal Census Enumerations as they changed from
1790-, and information on the Mortality Schedules. All of this is as of
1965, the date of the book.
I am new at this and do not yet understand all of the above and its value.
I am giving the information in case you do and want to try to get the book.
There may be (probably are) newer ones available now that I am unaware of.

The Day Evil Won, Part Deux: Louisville wins 2012 NCAA Tournament.
- Written by Juan Cena on Monday, April 08 2013 and posted in SWRT
Last year, America suffered through evil incarnate as Kentucky and its ethically challenged head basketball coach John Calipari won the NCAA men's basketball tournament final. This year, fellow Bluegrass state school Louisville have taken home the title, accomplishing the rare occurrence of two schools from the same state winning back-to-back titles.
Luckily, for Louisville, its HC Rick Pitino keeps his douchebaggery limited to restaurants where the NCAA has no jurisdiction. At least until it decides it does. Until then, Cardinal fans can be safe in knowing that there little chance their title will be taken away when Pitino leaves like there probably be when Calipari leaves Kentucky.

Always great to work with these guys very professional and helpful
Have rented from Lloyds before, always great to work with.
Short of not charging for the rental, not much else. The folks at the location were pleasant, the vehicle was ready when promised. The owner, Lloyd, is a really nice guy. Stop by and give him some business.
Never...ever go anywhere other than Lloyds. Why? Because Lloyd always treats me the way I want to be treated....always has the equipment I need...always great to deal with. Nothing else needs to be said.
Great, Quick service
Great customer service. Have used this location twice, would highly recommend
MY FRIEND AND i TWO LADIES 49 and 60 years old packed and drove truck to lumberton n.c. from wilmington n.c. and unpacked a 26 foot u haul and was back at 4;00 pm that day. women need to know that this does not need to be a man job I louise and lucy thelma drove truck with no problem women need to know we donot need to wait on a man the trucks ride very comfortable and the design of the front of u-haul does not make you feel that you are in two lanes. we are know known as two women in a truck you need to promote a commercial with this concept to alll women out there if you need help with this I LOVE DRIVING THAT TRUCK AND WILL MISS IT many thanks thelma and louise (we decided not to drive off the cliff)
Excellent overall experience!!
The gentleman who took care of us at this location was wonderful. He was thorough and friendly, highly recommend.
Great team working at this location! Very professional, courteous, and helpful!!
A little slow on check out. I didn't expect to be there 45 minutes picking up the trailer.
Great service, nice people
Excellent service, staff was very helpful and polite.
Having a more pleasant non demanding attitude towards customers would be a great start.
Service was very good but having to return the truck by four when we picked it up at eleven kept us feeling rushed. Thankfully, we drove only about five miles so did not lose time on the road.
Nothing. Went perfectly.
Always have what I need to get the job done. Very Friendly staff. Work with me without a problem so I can get my work done and control my costs. It is why I now drive out of my way to rent from them.
Great service, clean equipment, lots of options - Top Notch!
George Chaney
when a customer returns a uhaul and is visibly upset and is trying to lodge a complaint with the truck breaking down twice, it is very unprofessional for the office worker to laugh and say "good luck trying to get back any money." Never again will I or my friends rent from Uhaul.
There are no improvements that I can see. The customer service is outstanding.
Lloyd and his employees are always friendly and willing to go the extra mile. I use them frequently and will continue to do so. Terry Quinn
Very helpful and friendly staff. Turn around was very prompt which was perfect as I was on an allotted time budget with my moving help.
no improvements needed. excellent service. thanks for providing a much needed service.
Lloyd's always offers top notch service!
Staff was so nice! Thorough and acted like they cared. Van was perfect. Drop- off the young man was also great, friendly and I will definately come back when I need anything along thia line!! Thanks!

This is as close as I could get to matching the recipe for the delicious scones they serve at Avoca!

This is a savoury scone which gets a slight flavour kick from mustard and cayenne pepper. They are delicious on their own, buttered or with leftover roasted meats and salad.

Look We Love: Hot Orange
Full-on tangerine is at least as bold as fire-engine red, yet there's something so summery and less serious about it. At Jason Wu (left) they got the look by blending pure orange pigment from MAC over red lipstick, but you can do it with any number of new lipcolors, in a range from gorgeously opaque to sexily sheer.

San Miguel Island Closure
In the interest of public safety, the U.S. Navy is closing San Miguel Island until further notice due to recent concerns of possible unexploded ordnance. More »
Recovery Status of Endangered Island Foxes
Contact: Yvonne Menard, 805-658-5725
During the December "From Shore to Sea" lecture National Park Service (NPS) Wildlife Biologist, Tim Coonan, will discuss the latest efforts to save the endangered island fox following a severe, over 90% decline in the population caused by golden eagle predation.
Coonan will outline how both short-term and longer-term recovery actions for the island fox are beginning to ensure the survival of this unique island mammal. The rebound in the fox population is significant considering island foxes were almost extinct on San Miguel and Santa Rosa Islands in 2000, with as few as 15 foxes found on each island. Today, the fox population is on the road to recovery, with small but stable populations on those islands and on the largest Channel Island, Santa Cruz.
A successful captive breeding program, coupled with the unexpected reproductive success of foxes released to the wild, has allowed Channel Islands National Park and The Nature Conservancy to end captive breeding on San Miguel and Santa Cruz Islands. Live-capture and removal of golden eagles has minimized the impact of this new predator on island foxes and allowed wild fox survival to increase. Moreover, removal of feral pigs from Santa Cruz and the reestablishment of bald eagles to the northern Channel Islands have tipped the ecological balance in favor of island foxes.
Since 1992, Coonan has directed the terrestrial restoration and monitoring programs at the park and since 1999, he has directed the island fox recovery program for the NPS. For the past 23 years, Coonan has worked for the NPS with previous assignments at Canyon De Chelly National Monument, San Antonio Missions National Historical Park, and Death Valley National Park.
The "From Shore to Sea" lecture series is jointly sponsored by Channel Islands National Park and Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary with generous support from Santa Barbara Maritime Museum. The purpose of the series is to further the understanding of research on the Channel Islands and surrounding waters. The lectures will occur at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday, December 11, 2007, at Santa Barbara Maritime Museum, 113 Harbor Way in the Santa Barbara Harbor and Wednesday, December 12, 2007, at the Channel Islands National Park Robert J. Lagomarsino Visitor Center, 1901 Spinnaker Drive in the Ventura Harbor. The programs are free and open to the public.
Did You Know?
The world's most complete pygmy mammoth specimen was discovered on Santa Rosa Island in 1994. These miniature mammoths, only four to six feet tall, once roamed island grasslands and forests during the Pleistocene.

4.88/5 rDev +19.3%
Beautiful pour. Deep brown (yes it is more brown than black). The head is thick and leaves a lot of attractive lacing behind. I know some people think the lacing thing isn't a big deal but it does look nice and tends to mean deliciousness is about to ensue.
The smell, unlike many black IPAs, is very very hoppy. It smells piney and slightly fruity like pineapples and oranges.
Very little blackness to this black IPA. It is very bright and hoppy. Super grapefruitty. Orange and slight pine. There is some of the roasted character of the malts in the background. Really it is just a deliciously citrusy IPA.
Overall, I think this is an awesome black IPA. It is the least black of the black IPAs I have had. This is an awesome IPA. Fantastic. If this were available in my area (Tucson, Arizona) I would drink it on a regular basis. Unfortunately, I found this on a visit to Riverside, CA. This is one of the best of the Stone Collabs that I have had. Maybe the best.
UPDATE: It is now available in AZ. I have at least found it @ Magee Road Liquors in Tucson.

A: Poured brown with a nice dirty white cap and some bubbles hanging around
S: Pine resin and orange peel, perhaps a whiff of grapefruit
T: Starts out a bit spicey, pine and citrus, mainly citrus to me but this was not above any other traditional IPA. There was no wow factor for this beer whether they were going for a off IPA or a tame version of CDA. Nothing special/
M: Medium-bodied, with a lacking backend when it comes to flavor and feel
O: Average across the board..CDA or IPA

Reviewing this one so that it can have reviews sufficent for a grade.
Pours a dark brown with a light khaki head that is fast fading but comes back with a nice swirl.
Typical fresh pineapple IPA nose and not any "brown" character if you smelled it blind.
Clean, bright and inviting nose. Light burnt toast/malt undertones in the nose.
Mouthfeel is medium bold with a nice cream charachter and very rich and inviting.
Flavors are rich, bold, assertive appealing and most "drinkably inviting." In two words, this one just "tastes good." This is a big bold bright hop bitter IPA that has roasted grain and toast in the back palate and that goes into a pine/grapefruit old bitter toast/malt finsih. Complex, layers and well made.

12 oz. bottle,
A: Pours brown with a bit of floaties. Nice off-white head with good retention, some lace.
S: Hops leap out and attack immediately in contrast to the beer's dark colour. Lots of pine. As the beer warms notes of grapefruit and tangerine appear. Pungent.
T: As dark as the beer is the malt doesn't play a huge part. Heavy white grapefruit and cedar, spicy hop character. Good flavours.
M: Medium-bodied, creamy mouthfeel, resiny, not a huge aftertaste though the beer hangs around.
O: A real nice dark IPA plus I know its fresh since I bought the bottle when they first appeared. One of the best collabs Stone has done.

12oz brown bottle, no freshness date.
LOOK: Hazed brown, good lacing
SMELL: Mint, citric zest, earthy, leafy, spicy, toasted biscuit
TASTE: Bitter, orange oil, tobacco, chicory, carob, toasted grain, dry finish
Warming story behind the beer, as for the beer is gets all up in my grill ... In a good way. Hops slap my palate around a bit and the malt is enough foundation to keep this beer somewhat balanced. Nice twist to on the versatile American IPA style.

A - Dark brown. There is a lot of sediment floating around in this one which is kind of odd for an IPA.
S - Citrusey hops but I don't get much more than that. Maybe some grapefruit.
T - This one tastes just like the nose suggests. I get the citrus flavor that is kinda mellow and then a nice hop bite at the end.
M - Light and creamy.
O - This one is pretty good but not something I would see myself gravitating towards on a regular basis. Maybe I am not that big of a fan of these dark IPA's.

4.85/5 rDev +18.6%
A - Ruby brown through light, murky brown up close. Lots of sediment floating through out and at bottom. Little bit of cling lace and ring.
S - Smells of fresh sweet hops and caramel hidden behind the hops, but BIG fresh sweet resinous aroma that kills most of any other smell. Kinda orangy but not in a traditional sense, more tropical orange and hops.
T - Crazy zesty orange tropical mixed with some hints of caramel or some brown style malts. Mainly a nice twist on ipa's, this one is different. Reminded me of fresh 15'th any BIPA from stone but a liile different on the side leading it more to an ipa, picture the 15'th BIPA with no toasty'ness and more hops "fresh hops".
M - Lower to medium carb, nice aftertaste of tropical orange flavors, not too dry.
O - Overall I was not expecting such a robust ipa, for a brown style ale, this is great. Always thought of brewing brown ipa up, but this takes the cut. Dude.... buy some quick, I can see this one going fast. This is not your normal ipa. THUMBS WAY UP!

As the name hints, there is a slight brownness to the appearance rather than a deep black, though it is still fairly dark. Slight head, fairly good retention.
The nose on this is mainly orange and tropical type fruit. There is a little roast coming through on the nose with some dark caramel/toffee notes.
The bright citrus notes are the first things I pick out on this beer. These three brewers do not fail in bringing a well made IPA. The hop flavor is accompanied by a little roastiness.
This is a very refreshing "dark" beer. The citrus/carbonation/hops lend a nice bite to the palate. Though the beer finishes dry and crisp there is a nice sweetness and fullness to the body.
Overall I really enjoyed this beer. The collaboration was a great success. I feel that Stone is making some great dark IPA, from SSR, SoCal Hop Salute, 15th, and now this.

On tap at Stone. The beer was served at roughly 32.1 degrees and it took at least 20 minutes before I could smell anything. For hating fizzy yellow beer they sure love the temperature at which such beer is served. I can see the gargoyle on the glass and it's turning blue.
A: Dark brown and opaque with two fingers of beige foam. Solid retention and a little lacing.
S: Perfumy floral notes blend with aromatic grapefruit and orange flesh. There's a whisper of roasted grains and pine resin is evident. The aroma is probably a 4.25, but I'll round up. Nice citrus profile. I get a little mango and a bit of melon as well.
T: Lightly roasted up front with pronounced citrus rind and an upper moderate bitterness. Notes of orange flesh meld with tangerine and grapefruit. Chocolate is merely a suggestion as it disappears the second it comes to mind. Perhaps it was never there. Alcohol is evident but not detracting. There's a little midpalate sweetness but the beer finishes dry with lingering pine and citrus rind.
M: Medium in body with upper medium carbonation. The mouthfeel is dry and sticky.
Overall: A good brown/black IPA for a good cause.

iPod storage pricing reflected in iPhone 6/Air2/rMini2?
So today with the releases of the iPods we see storage prices cut in half to 50$ increments, could this be the start of the new pricing for storage tears across all off Apples devices. At this point storage prices have gotten stupidly low enough for apple to bring some of those savings to its users.
What do you all think?

September 2 2014 Latest news:
Friday, November 2, 2012
Cheryl Cole is reportedly on the verge of singing a deal to become a television chat show host.
The singer and former X Factor judge is wanted by Sky 1 to front a confessional show as its very own Oprah Winfrey.
A source told the Daily Star newspaper: "Sky1 are desperate to get Cheryl to sign up.
"They've been in talks for a while and believe they will have wrapped up the deal within the next month.
"They think she could be the UK's Oprah because of her reputation as the nation's sweetheart and are willing to pay big bucks to get her on board.
"They want the show to be emotional and confessional, not just another run-of-the-mill celebrity show."
Cheryl has avoided TV work since she was axed by Simon Cowell from her role judging the US 'X Factor' in 2011, and turned down an alleged £1 million offer to return to the UK version of the show.
The insider added: "Cheryl's people think she would come across brilliantly. On 'X Factor' she found it easy to connect with people and viewers loved her for it."
Harnessing the latest trend, beer brand Birra Moretti is taking traditional Italian cooking to the streets on Thursday with an exciting new festival.

steelopus replied to your photo: I stayed at the office late last night, getting a…
How can you prove that it wasn't The Doofus that did it?
Elementary, my dear Steelopus:
Because there was no slobber on it.
Turns out that there was more to this story… Read the end of it here.
Remember that adorable story about how sweet my kid is and how he covered me with his blanket on Monday morning?
And remember how Steve tried to suggest that it might have been the dog?!
(If not, read them both here.)
(As if!)
Well, let's return to Monday night, just around The Boy's Bedtime, EDT.
"Dad, I can't find my second blanket…"
(Did I mention he sleeps with 4 blankets? Even in the summer? I blame The Wife's thin blood and the fact that he was manufactured and born in Florida.)
"Which one is the second one? The Steelers' one?"
"It's still on my bed from this morning…"
"…This morning?"
"Remember when mom took you to school so I could sleep in? Didn't you put that blanket on me?"
"No… I think it must have been the dog."
"Dammit, Steve!"
"Take your blanket and go to bed."
Me: "Did you see that picture I posted? How sweet is that? He covered me with his blanket!"
The Wife: "I think that was the dog."
Me: "Oh shut up, it was not."
It's tough being the only romantic in a world full of Muggles…

Estimating household responses to trade reforms : net consumers and net producers in rural Mexico
AbstractThis paper explores an empirical methodology to assess the impacts of trade reforms on household behavior in developing countries. It focuses on consumption and income responses: when price reforms take place, households modify consumption and production decisions and local labor markets adjust. The paper proposes a joint estimator of demand and wage price elasticities from survey data. The method uses an empirical model of demand to extract price information from unit values, and uses this information to estimate the response of households to price reforms. By correcting unit values for quality effects and measurement error, the method overcomes the problem of the endogeneity of unit values. By endogeneizing household income, the model corrects potential biases in the estimation of own- and cross-price elasticities in consumption. The paper applies the method to an expenditure and income survey for rural Mexico. It shows that the corrections suggested in this paper are empirically important. In particular, it shows that allowing for consumption and income responses is a key element of an accurate empirical assessment of trade policy.

How Unemployment Affects Marriage
Would you marry someone who was unemployed? What if you yourself were unemployed? If you answered "no" to those questions, you're not alone. Seventy-five percent of women wouldn't hitch themselves to someone who was unemployed, and 65% wouldn't tie the knot if they were jobless, according to a recent survey by YourTango and ForbesWoman.
"With the recent unemployment rate up to 9.1 percent, joblessness is an increasingly pervasive issue—especially for women as they consider the fiscal and emotional stability of their romantic future," said Andrea Miller, founder and CEO, YourTango. "From money woes to resentment, joblessness can create great strain on relationships. Before women enter into a lifetime commitment, they want to feel secure in what their partner can bring to the table."
Although having a job is important, more than 91 percent of single women saying they would marry for love over money.
"It is ironic that women place more weight on love than money, yet won't marry if they or their potential suitor is unemployed," said Meghan Casserly, Reporter, ForbesWoman. "A job can make or break the longevity of a relationship and the results of the survey demonstrate just what an important role careers play in romance."

"Faith must trample underfoot all reason, sense, and understanding."
"One of the noblest and most precious virtues of faith is to close one's eyes to this,
Very well said April! :-) You're right, we are all faced with moments of doubt and uncertainty in our walk of faith. The best way I've found to battle these attacks of the devil is to quote God's word, stand firm on it, and give it all to Him. I stop questioning, stop trying to reason, stop trying to act as if I'll ever be able to figure out the greatness of God's ways and accept them, trusting that He wants only good for me. My hope lies in Him. :-)ReplyDelete
You said it so well, Faith. Absolutely right! His word is the greatest response in the face of the enemy!Delete
Your words, along with Martin Luther's, surely are part of what we all need to "nurture our faith daily." We must delve and live in the Word of God to see Jesus with us at every step. Oh, me of such little faith! I know the answers, but do not listen nor do as I am told. Thank you for this encouragement.

I wish I had found it earlier,
Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: On My Way to the Club: An Autobiography (Hardcover)
Ludvick Kennedy divides his life into two parts, before Moira and with Moira. The book is a very detailed and honest account of his whole life and in one or two parts I would say too detailed. The odd thing or two would have been better left out. However, it is a fascinating read and for someone who prefers autobiographies, it is very recommendable.

Toby Murdock | January 1, 2013 | Comments
Brands are becoming the media, attracting their own audiences. Here are the standouts.
Marketing principles are being turned upside down. Brands have historically paid for media to deliver their messages. But now, those brands are becoming the media, attracting their own audiences. And not just within social networks, but through their own online publications. This new strategy is known as content marketing, and it has been embraced by leading brands like American Express, IBM, and General Mills, with more joining the ranks every day.
As marketers pursue their own content marketing strategies, they'll need a roadmap of the content marketing landscape, a guide to the precedents set by the pioneers. For that reason, we've compiled this list, "Top Brands in Content Marketing in 2012."
We conducted a study analyzing top content marketing operations, evaluating them through qualitative and quantitative measures of their websites, content, and search and social efforts. Our lead findings are presented in the following slideshow.
To continue reading 11 through 50 of the Top Content Marketing Brands in 2012, click here.
A Note on Methodology
The Content Marketing Index, created by Kapost's research team, scores brands on a scale of zero to 400 - with 400 representing the most strategic and successful use of content marketing.
This list began with a large group of brands that are practicing content marketing and was then distilled down to a group of 75 for more rigorous analysis.
That analysis included both empirical and subjective evaluation, both of which were converted into relative numerical scores. Areas of analysis included website features, search efforts, content, and social attribution. Dimensions deemed to be of greater importance were weighted more significantly in calculating the overall Content Marketing Index score.
For a complete review of the methodology, please click here.
Disclosure: Verizon, No. 9 on this list, is a client.
Cameron Naish and Will Riseley also contributed to this analysis.

I like masks to: make my skin feel smooth, soft, hydrated and clean.
Some masks I like: Boscia Luminizer, Neutrogena Hydrating Facial Cloth (left on overnight, it's AMAZING), Indian Healing Clay.
I've recently been dabbling in a little DIY so I've played around with a bunch of ingredients. I mostly want something that's not too perishable, something that wouldn't take forever and something that worked. I like this because I already eat all these things. I'm not really one to buy an avocado just so I can use it on my face. Although...I do love avocados. I should get them more.
The great thing about DIY skincare is that you can customize it to your liking. If it's too harsh or won't stay on or takes too long to dry, you can fix those things by adjusting (respectively, less rice, more honey, more dry ingredients). That said, I give amounts in the following recipe, but feel free to add/subtract/adjust/forgo any part of it you like!
My credentials? Trial and error. Let's begin.
|My dry ingredients in an old salt shaker.
The yellowish tint comes from tumeric.
More on that in a future post.
Things you'll need:
- Container and mixing apparatus. I prefer a spoon. I wouldn't use a foundation brush for this.
- Rice (uncooked). I hear (from my mother) it's great for brightening your skin, but this is my main exfoliating ingredient.
- Oatmeal (any kind, I use large flake quick oats). Great for calming your skin. Did you take oatmeal baths when you had the chicken pox? I did.
- Honey: the antibacterial properties are great for acne sufferers like me! Also makes for a great moisturizer
- Yogurt: See here.
How to get there:
- I use a coffee grinder to grind up my rice and oatmeal separately -- I make mason jars of these at a time so I can just grab them whenever I want/my coffee grinder is a PITA to clean. I don't think they'll go bad as long as no moisture gets inside. Tupperware also works.
- Decide on the level of exfoliation you want. If I want a major deep-clean scrubbing, I'll add more rice, but if I want something softer and more soothing, I'll up the oatmeal. My skin's quite tough and I generally use 1 tsp of rice for every 3 tsp of oatmeal.
- Add 2 tsp of honey (more if you feel your mixture is too dry)
- Add 2 tsp of yogurt (or enough to make the consistency something other than lumpy-sticky)
- Smooth over your face and leave until it dries. Takes me about 20 minutes.
- Splash your face with water to loosen the mask and wash it off by massaging your face in circular motions. The grains will smooth away and dead skin cells.
- Finish with a toner and moisturizer.
Why does mine look a little yellow tinted? I added tumeric. More on that later.

Beauty,tranquil,breezy, secluded, perfect relaxing
I was very impressed with the view of the sea/ snorkeling to Longbay beach was an adventure. The tropical breeze poolside was so comfortable and the patio offered amble shade. The inside of the apartment had just the right sea tones and the bed was comfy. All the amenities of home. However the love seat could have been larger/cozier.
Perfect beach beautiful crystal blue waters!
This was our second visit and we loved every minute. Quiet, relaxing. Walks on beach. Swimming, snorkeling. At breakfast and lunch at the room. Went out to dinner except a couple of nights we brought it back and ate on the veranda. We will be back.
Peace of Mind
Me and my wife recently spent Three nights at this Can I say "home away from home" for our third wedding anniversary and we were very pleased and happy that we would do it all over again. The entire house was spotless and helped to create a warm and cozy atmosphere. Peace and quite is an understatement from the moment you walk in you can sleep the entire trip away if that is what you want. The pillows were a heavenly mixture of soft and firm and mattress felt like it hugged the body. The A/C worked really well as well as the water heater because I love hot water. The balcony adds for a extra romantic scenery one night we had dinner out there. We played in the pool for a bit it was nice and clean and warm I really enjoyed it. All of the amenities help add to the ease and comfort of everyday life because I love to cook and I prepare a two course meal with all the fixings. All and all I would say it was a great trip and I loved the stay ad if your smart and looking for a great time this is the place to stay.

Re the May 7 letter Does capital punishment provide justice?: We who favor capital punishment certainly do not support the execution of innocents, which occurs because of flaws in the justice system and not in the punishment itself.
Second, the death penalty, indeed, is a deterrent, as the executed commit no further murders. Third, has it benefited humanity that Charles Manson, who was eligible for the death penalty, instead has enjoyed Corcoran State Prison amenities for the past 40 years?
As to the method of execution, I am against "cruel and unusual punishment."
I ask, why not inject Death Row inmates with the same cocktail that killed Philip Seymour Hoffman? It might be unusual, but definitely not cruel.

Real Madrid's chance at the elusive tenth European Cup has been more than the 12 games leading to the final. It has been 12 years in the making. In that time they've suffered greatly at the hands of Europe's elite. Here is a rundown of Los Blancos' tumultuous journey to the Champions League final:
2003 – Semi-finals - Juventus:
A Pavel Nedved masterclass helped Juventus overturn a 2-1 deficit from the first leg at the Bernabeu. Juventus were 2-0 up at half time in Turin and Nedved himself sealed the Italians final spot 20 minutes from time. Zidane's late strike wasn't enough for Los Blancos, who had overcome Manchester United in one of the greatest ever Champions League matches in the previous round.
2004 – Quarter-finals – Monaco:
This tie will be remembered for one man, Fernando Morientes. The striker, deemed surplus to requirements when Florentino Perez signed Ronaldo, was on loan at Monaco and came back to haunt Madrid with two goals over the two legs. Madrid were cruising 4-1 in the first leg but Morientes late goal meant that Monaco went into the second leg trailing 4-2. Raul opened the scoring in the second leg but with a 5-2 lead Real Madrid capitulated. Morientes and a Ludovic Giuly brace (including a stunning back heeled goal) sent Monaco through on away goals.
2005 – Round of 16 - Juventus:
A more evenly fought contest than the semi-final clash two years prior. Both legs were cagey affairs and ended 1-0 in favour of the home sides. Both Ronaldo and Alessio Tacchinardi were dismissed in extra time after they clashed with each other. The tie was settled in extra time in Turin by a Marcelo Zalayeta strike. The Uruguayan had only been on the field for a matter of minutes before scoring.
2006 – Round of 16 – Arsenal:
The Gunners made history as they were the first English side to win at the Bernabeu. A second half Thierry Henry wonder goal gave Arsene Wenger's side a 1-0 win in Madrid. The Frenchman picked up the ball in the centre circle and beat four white shirts before slotting past Iker Casillas. A goalless draw at Highbury ensured that Arsenal progressed.
2007 – Round of 16 - Bayern Munich:
Fabio Capello's Real Madrid side had a terrible first half of the season and elimation to Bayern Munich was actually a turning point for their league form. Madrid won the first leg 3-2, but Mark Van Bommel's late strike proved to be consequential for Real, who went to Munich without a great cushion. Bayern's Roy Makaay scored the fastest goal in Champions League history 10 seconds into the second leg to give Bayern an advantage, which Lucio added to on the hour mark. A late Van Nistelrooy penalty was too little to late for Madrid, who had a miserable night in Munich and went out 5-4 on agg.
2008 – Round of 16 - Roma:
Raul gave Real Madrid an early lead in the Estadio Olimpico but Real couldn't build on it and lost 2-1 in Rome. Madrid were confident of overturning the deficit but Roma repeated their 2-1 result at the Bernabeu in a shock win. Madrid again failing at the round of 16 stage of the competition.
2009 – Round of 16 – Liverpool:
Liverpool won 1-0 at the Bernabeu and defeated Real Madrid 4-0 at Anfield in one of the worst European nights in Real Madrid's history. The first leg was a tense affair in which Liverpool refused to be broken down, before hitting Madrid with a sucker punch late on to win 1-0. The second leg was a different affair though, a complete annihilation by Liverpool. The home side ripped Madrid's defence to pieces and Gerrard scored twice, along with Fernando Torres and Andrea Dossena to complete the rout.
2010 – Round of 16 – Lyon:
The French side had proved to be a bogey team for Real Madrid in group stage encounters in the few years prior to their knockout clash, and the curse continued here. A wonderful strike from Jean Makoun in Lyon gave Les Gones a 1-0 lead in the tie, before Cristiano Ronaldo levelled the tie early on in Madrid. It looked as if the curse of Lyon would be overcome but a 75th minute strike from Miralem Pjanic gave Lyon a 2-1 advantage in the tie that Real Madrid couldn't overturn. The failure was probably the final nail in Manuel Pellegrini's coffin, as he was sacked at the end of the season.
2011 – Semi-finals – Barcelona: After six consecutive failed attempts at the round of 16, Jose Mourinho was brought in to deliver the Champions League following his success with Inter. The Portuguese manager overcame Lyon on the way to the semi-finals where they were defeated by Barcelona; which resulted in one of the most controversial incidents in Jose Mourinho's career. Barcelona won the first leg 2-0, but only found the breakthrough after a controversial Pepe red card.
After the match Mou famously asked "por que?" Why? He felt there was a greater conspiracy behind Barcelona's win and suggested an agenda by UEFA to aid Barcelona. Mourinho faced sanctions and was banned from the calmer return leg at Camp Nou, which finished 1-1. Barcelona progressed to the final. A very ugly mark on Real Madrid's history.
2012 – Semi-finals – Bayern Munich:
Another semi-final appearance for Mourinho's side. This time the side were in a much better position to compete and were on their way to winning La Liga in a record breaking season. Both ties finished 2-1 in favour of the home side and the tie went to penalties. Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka missed Real Madrid's first two penalties, despite Ronaldo scoring twice in 90 minutes, and Sergio Ramos famously blasted over the bar. Bastian Schweinsteiger kept his cool and scored the winner, sending Bayern to the final.
After the match, Manuel Neuer added salt to Madrid's wound by tweeting "I didn't know Sergio Ramos liked putting penalties over the bar."
2013 – Semi-finals – Dortmund:
The tie was all but over after a first leg masterclass by Borussia Dortmund, in which Robert Lewandowski put four past Real Madrid in a 4-1 rout. 1-1 at half time thanks to a Ronaldo equaliser, things were looking good for Madrid until the second half blitz. Mourinho's side were well and truly beaten in Dortmund and despite a late surge in the second leg where they won 2-0, it wasn't enough and the Germans deservedly progressed.
2014 – Final:
Madrid and Jose Mourinho parted company in the summer and it looks as though the weight of the world has been lifted from Real Madrid's shoulders. On the way to this years final they have exorcised numerous demons, mostly German. Sergio Ramos and Cristiano Ronaldo both managed to redeem themselves against Bayern Munich in an historic semi-final. Manuel Neuer is even reported to have apologised to Sergio Ramos after the semi-final for his tweet two years ago.
Real Madrid finally have their chance at La Decima. Only Spanish Champions and city neighbours Atletico Madrid stand in their way.

In wake of recent crimes, Palo Alto police may consider public surveillance
Original post made on Feb 7, 2014

Hopefully the Palo Alto Police Dept. will change their priority of chasing down teenage bicyclists running stop signs and focus instead on rising crime in our city. The Police Chief and City Manager seem to mistakenly believe that every crime can be somehow caught on video and therefore propose to gain public support in spending millions of tax dollars on installing surveillance cameras on light and power poles. How inane and simple minded. Perhaps the Police Chief and City Manager's time would be better spent on educating and training senior and middle management police officials on crime prevention techniques, restoring morale within police ranks, and remedying the exodus of our most qualified police officers.
on Feb 7, 2014 at 9:02 pm
> But the take-home message for residents Tuesday was to do everything they can to protect themselves
Uh, if people are armed and coming into our houses I think that is not a job for people protecting themselves, unless they have weapons and training to use them.
If some kind of surveillance is being thought about to combat this, explain what it is and how it works. For example posting cameras of every person who walks in or drives into the city that is kept for a limited amount of time, or unable to be accessed except by a court warrant in case of a crime would be OK with me. I don't see what kind of privacy invasion that would be ... am I missing something?
on Feb 9, 2014 at 6:30 pm
When we lived in South Palo Alto, we had a neighborhood watch. This included monthly meetings at a different person's home, complete with a potluck dinner.
Now that we live north of Oregon, neighbors apparently feel safe from crime, because absolutely no one we have discussed this with wants anything to do with a neighborhood watch ( claiming it is unneeded, everyone works too late, too busy, too tired, too many kids, &c). About one-third have never even heard of a neighborhood watch and would not want to be involved anyway, because they feel this is the job of the police.
If people do not feel that crime prevention begins at home, and that no one is immune to crime, what can a community do? Apparently in some European countries this is entirely the domain of the government!

The second issue of The Football Pink quarterly magazine is out now and available to download.
You can buy it from Amazon for your Kindle here priced at just 99p, and if you don't have a Kindle, you can download the Kindle app to PC, laptop, mobile and tablet here
It is also now available for all mobile, tablet and computer devices here priced at $1.50, which is 99p in good old British sterling.
The magazine has had some superb reviews;
"This is genuine, passionate, informed & intelligent football writing by people who will be the next wave of chroniclers on the sport" – Sabotage Times
"The Football Pink has been a true revelation" – The Daisy Cutter
"Is it worth forking out 99 of your hard earned pence? Without a doubt, it is." – The Inside Left
"Overall, this E-Magazine provides pages of articles from excellent football writers. It's not hugely up its own arse like many of the E-books we've been exposed to as football fans, and its balance of informative yet humorous content is enough to please the vast majority of people, even someone picky and elitist like myself. In our expensive and modern world, there aren't many great things left that you can buy cheaper than 2 pints of milk." – The Illustrated Game
"Quality and value for money. These are two of the major requirements for making purchases in this day and age, thankfully the Football Pink has both these traits, in abundance." – Sportnewsireland
Written by a collection of hugely talented writers, we want to share with you some extracts by three such scribes.
From 'Games of our lives – Tottenham Hotspur vs. Arsenal, April 14th, 1991, London, England' by Greg Theoharis of Dispatches From A Football Sofa (nominated as Best Blogger Of The Year in the Football Supporters Federation Awards 2013)
I was even at odds with everybody around me with regard to my footballing passions. Whilst playground arguments would revolve around whether or not Omonia or APOEL Nicosia were the superior of the capital's clubs, I immersed myself in the Barclays League. I would routinely listen to commentaries broadcast via the BBC World Service on a Saturday afternoon, jot down the results and religiously sit at my bedroom desk and write out the league table for that week – I was a databaser before databases existed. My bedroom walls were covered in football posters. More specifically, my heroes, the two footballers that even today have the capacity to transport me back to my adolescence despite the various tragedies/mediocrities of their later years: Paul Gascoigne and Gary Lineker.
From 'Blatter, Ba-Vi and the Beauty of Bahia' by Laura Jones of Yes I Can Explain The Offside Rule (nominated as Best Female Blogger in the Football Blogging Awards 2013)
Imagine a place where every Tuesday the residents pray all day and dance all night. Imagine beaches filled will people playing football at all hours of the day. Imagine a city where you can wander the streets to discover square after square of music from traditional samba to Bob Marley being sung in Portuguese. I don't have to imagine this because I lived it, and on the 6th of December, Sepp Blatter's FIFA entourage will land in Salvador to show the world its charms. Inside Blatter's inner sanctum on the first Friday in December, national teams will be picked for the group stages of the World Cup. Favours will be whispered in ears and hangers on will be wined and dined. Outside the FIFA conference suite is Bahia, a place of the people.
From 'If you're good enough, you're old enough' by Anna-Louise Adams of 90 Minutes More (nominated for Best Female Blogger in the Football Blogging Awards 2013)
As a seventeen year old female trying to break into the football journalism industry, one may expect to come across difficulties along the way. Of course, there are obstacles, however many of the obstacles I have faced thus far appear to be due to my age rather than my gender, which actually, is rather pleasing. Yes, I receive the odd sleazy comment made by the archetypal chauvinist, and yes I have been told on several occasions to "get back in the kitchen" (which still baffles me, considering the extent of my cooking skills reaches only as far as the self-assembly of a Pot Noodle) but more often than not, the comments I receive can be taken with a pinch (or five) of salt and generally are intended as humorous.
