So where can I see Trick r Treat anyway?
by tombseye
I mean seriously, I hear some good things and I likes the horror so what gives? No DVD release date? Sure hope the stuff I've read about this film being released next year isn't true since we all know it has had some limited screenings!
Dec. 22, 2008, 12:40 a.m. CST
it just doesn't sound exciting to me
by Bloo
but if it gives Micheal Dourghty exposure enough to release Trick r treat so be it

Fox? So it's already cancelled then?
by TroutMaskReplicant
Poor guy. If I were Mike Dougherty I'd try to make an extended pilot that works really well as a standalone TV movie, or even go Mulholland Drive and make it good enough to convert into a real movie.

Proposed title: Bitches

anyone else think they'll have trouble getting the show to air with that title?

Dougherty said he was already thinking of alternative titles, just in case.
Dec. 22, 2008, 3:44 a.m. CST
so, after Dead Set= Dawn of the Dead + Big Brother...

by cifra
Let's do another: Friends + Dracula, The Simpsons + The Omen, MASH + Friday the 13th, Sesame Street + A Nightmare on Elm Street - Lol, we have a title, even "A Nightmare on Sesame Street". I copyright that right now.

I've been waiting for them to mix the Sex and the City formula with other shit! So one or more will fall in love with a wolf hunter. Also, expect some sort of joke, like, "I'm not a cougar, I'm a wolf!" or "You're right, I am a bitch. A bitch is a female dog."

Matter of TIme...
by Fervel Lankman
before they start making shitty "time of the month" jokes about being fucking werewolves! This already sucks so much it makes me weep. After the defilement of vampires by Twilight, and now this garbage, I'm sure they're gonna keep doing this and soon and we'll have such touching, monster-filled dreck like "Haunted Curves" and "Grey's Anatomy(More Visible Thanks To Decaying Zombie Flesh!)"
Dec. 22, 2008, 7:19 a.m. CST
Is this really necessary?
by Dradis Contact

Do they think anyone is going to watch the show because they named it Bitches? The best thing would be if they had a crossover with Supernatural where they were all killed in the first five minutes then the Winchester boys investigate how this series ever made it to air.

This Title Will Not Make It
by Cheif Brody
"Bitches"? I don't see Fox letting this hit their primetime sked with that title. The PTC will be all over Fox for them to change it to something even MORE lame...and Fox will bend.
 "X2" was okay...Supes Returns was average...and Pepper Dennis was UNWATCHABLE, even with Rebecca Romijn and Brooke Burns (the blonde one from Dog Eat Dog...Not the brunette from Wild On E!/DWTS) in it.
 How does COMBINING all these influences make this concept sound any better?
 Start casting the "Bitches" and we can talk.
Dec. 22, 2008, 9:21 a.m. CST
Bitches, huh?
by Arcangel2020
Sounds like an Interesting concept But if it is going to be on Fox? Chances are that it is going to be cancelled wither after a few episodes or after just one season...which is typical of that Network (Rarely does it EVER give a series a proper chance..it's history is rife with many examples of shows that could have been great if given the chance to grow). To bad it isn't on HBO or Showtime...then the show could not only have incredible Hotties...but also gratuitous AND much appreciated female nudity and sex scenes to enjoy and oogle over :)

'Twould be a shame if it was changed.

 I gotta say that I like the premise...and we really ought to trust the judgment of the guy behind TRICK 'R TREAT, don't you think?

 Also...PAUL BLART: MALL COP looks far less stupid than BRIDE WARS. That is all.

Naked Cakes: Letting It All Hang Out
As professionals in the wedding industry, it's part of our responsibility to be up to date on trends. We're well versed on what's up and coming on sites like Pinterest; we're familiar with bunting and gold leaf and mason jars and everything else that's currently hot in the world of weddings. One major trend we've been seeing lately is the "naked" cake. That's a cake divided into layers, each layer filled with buttercream and/or fruit, and stacked – with no frosting on the outside. Just layers of cake and buttercream. This creates a rustic-looking cake, for those going for a less refined type of wedding.
For us, the naked cake trend is a tough sell. We bake all of our cake from scratch, and that includes using butter rather than oil in most cases. When exposed to air, a butter-based cake has a tendency to dry out. This is because butter-based cakes have more air whipped into them during the baking process, creating tiny air pockets that can result in a drier cake when exposed for long periods of time. That's the great thing about buttercream – it's airtight and creates a blanket to seal in that moist goodness. We would never want a couple to have a beautiful cake that didn't taste just as good as it looks, which is why we often try to steer couples away from the idea of the naked cake. That being said, there are some cakes – carrot cake for instance – that are entirely oil-based cakes. These oil-based cakes are more rich and dense in texture and therefore have fewer places for air to sneak in and dry it out. Our carrot cake is incredibly moist and would probably fare well when exposed to the air for a few hours.
If you're interested in having a naked cake at your wedding, consider asking your baker about the specific ingredients in each cake. We recommend either an entirely oil-based cake or at the very least, half butter, half oil. This will help the cake retain moisture while exposed to the air, resulting in a beautiful and still delicious cake. Whatever you choose, be sure to discuss with your baker and cake decorator the best way to store and handle your cake before the ceremony to ensure when it comes time to serve it, it's at room temperature and won't be exposed to any extreme cold or heat.
How Long Should Our Wedding Ceremony Be?
I'm often asked this question by my couples at our first meeting: "How long should the ceremony be?"
As a team, I guide them by asking a few questions:
- What time is your cocktail hour?
- Do you have special readings or songs during your ceremony?
- Do YOU like sitting through lengthy ceremonies or do you prefer a 15 minute ceremony loaded with inspiration and romance, intimacy and personality, motivation and humor?
We make the decision on length based on their answers, though the average ceremony length is approximately 15 minutes. You can fill your ceremony with as much love and inspiration as you like: you can keep it short and sweet, or stretch it out to fit your needs and desires. As long as you have a good rapport with your officiant, you will work together to create the perfect ceremony!
To Freeze or Not to Freeze?
That is the question. The age-old tradition of saving the top tier of your wedding cake in your freezer and then digging it out a year later to celebrate your first anniversary is something of a debate in the wedding cake world. Should you stick with tradition and actually eat a year-old cake, or should you break tradition and at the same time free up crucial space in your freezer?
A lot of couples come to us at their cake tasting and say, "Wait a second, aren't we supposed to save that top tier for our first anniversary?" as if it was a written rule in The Wedding 10 Commandments somewhere. This tradition actually started back in the 19th century. At that time, a wedding cake was a brandy-soaked fruit affair that was easily preserved for long periods of time and was believed to bring good fortune to your marriage. At our bakery, we bake all of our wedding cakes from scratch – without preservatives – just three days before they're served. We don't freeze our cakes at all during our process, so why would we recommend freezing the top tier? We don't.
For hardcore traditionalists, we recommend saving the top tier for dessert the night after the wedding, or at the most, save it in the fridge until you get back from your honeymoon. One week, max. Another consideration is that if the top tier is being saved, we will have to bake more cake. For example: If you are planning your wedding cake to serve 100 guests and you want to take the top tier home with you, you will have to order a cake to feed 110-115 servings. The top tier of an average 100-serving cake will be a 7″ round, which feeds about 12-15 people. If you take that home, what remains still needs to feed 100 guests.
If you are sticking with tradition, be sure to inform your venue that you're saving the top tier so that they don't cut it up for serving. They should be able to box it up (in a box usually provided by your baker) and send it home with you or a trustworthy, non-sweet-tooth member of your family. When you get home, wrap the cake in plastic wrap, and then foil… and then wait a year. The day before you want to eat it, let it thaw in the fridge, and then warm up to room temp before serving. It might taste OK, and it might not…We don't know what else you store in your freezer, or if you'll store the cake next to your pickled garlic!
If you are rebelling against this tradition all in the name of extra freezer space, you won't have to worry about keeping track of that cake from the night after your wedding until a whole year later. We recommend coming back to us on your first anniversary and ordering a custom-decorated cake designed around all the fun stuff you did in your first year together. This also gives you a chance to try out a new flavor combo that you've had your eye on, and maybe even start a new tradition!
Primp Your Prep Location!
No doubt, there's a lot to think about leading up to your wedding day! One thing that shouldn't be brushed aside without any consideration, though, is the location for your ceremony preparations. As a photographer, the images we get during your prep time are some of my favorite to shoot: everyone's super excited and emotional, there are gorgeous details galore to set up; it's just a nice relaxed part of what can be a very formal day. And who doesn't want photos of everyone they love hanging out and getting ready, enjoying the calm before the storm and feeling closer than ever?
With such great photo ops to be had, it's impossible to overstate the importance of the location where you choose to dress yourself up! You have options to work with: you can get ready at home, at a hotel or inn, or, oftentimes, even at your wedding venue. It may seem like a daunting choice, but really the most important thing, no matter which option you go with, is to keep your chosen area tidy. The last thing you want in the background of your photos is a giant mess from strewn-about luggage. Trust me: Lara and I spend a good amount of time ensuring that the area where you put on your dress or suit is spotless, with nary a stray pair of undies in sight. But that's time better spent photographing the star of the day – you! So let's take a look at the advantages and drawbacks to each location to help you find your ideal, no-fuss, picture-perfect prep venue.
Prepping at a hotel or inn
Where to begin? There are so many advantages to getting ready at a hotel, a bed and breakfast, an inn. The space is completely customizable not only to your budget, but to your style and how much space you need for you and your wedding party. Hosting a formal downtown black-tie event? Choose a swanky presidential suite in a high-rise hotel. Throwing a beach-front ceremony or a wedding in a sweet summer garden? Why not go for a charming cottage where all of your friends can primp?
And let's just get it out there: it's easier to keep the blank canvas of a hotel suite tidy than to clean up your well-loved and thoroughly lived-in home in the busy final week before the wedding day arrives. One less thing to worry about is nothing to sneeze at!
Take a look at Ashley's preparation photos. She got ready at the glam Fairmont Copley Plaza and didn't have to lift a finger to make the place look stellar!
Emily & John chose to get ready at the beautiful Renaissance Boston Waterfront Hotel, which features gorgeous light and sweeping views from its suites.
Getting ready at home
Home is where the heart is, and that can be especially true on your wedding day. Sure, you may have to take a little extra time to prepare the space, but that time is well spent when you consider how meaningful the setting becomes in your imagery. Your home will be showcased in your wedding photos, and the sweet vignettes we photographers love to create with your details will be set among your personal treasures.
Keeping it close to home can also be a great stress reducer. You'll be in familiar surroundings, and not having to secure a hotel room takes just another task off of your already lengthy to-do list. Saving a little extra cash by getting ready in your own home is just the icing on the cake! To really make this option work for you, we recommend designating one room as the area for everyone's luggage and personal items; that way, the majority of the home is kept clear and lovely for photo opportunities.
Our lovely bride Kelly rocked out her prep shots in the comfort of her own home, and we had a blast arranging her wedding details around her place for photos.
Super cute, right? Another Kelley of ours also got ready for her walk down the aisle at home, and came away with a completely different – but just as beautiful – result.
Creating your look on location
If you've booked a venue that offers a space to get ready in, then you're one of the lucky ones! Prepping for your big moment on-site is the ultimate in convenience – and talk about a stress-reducer. You don't have to worry about building in travel time from location to location – or any of the potential traffic that can go along with it. So, what to do with all of that extra time? You can't go wrong with a bonus portrait session. And you'll probably still have time afterwards for a pre-ceremony toast with your wedding party!
Amanda's lovely Wentworth by the Sea wedding gave her the chance to get ready right on the property for a super easy morning and a beautiful location!
Jessica hosted a Chatham Bars Inn wedding and prepped for the big moment at the venue – and everything was picture-perfect.

Woodsy Wedding Cakes
Outdoor weddings are becoming more and more popular lately, and so is the use of natural elements such as wood and bark in decorations, centerpieces, favors and more. Of course you wouldn't want wood on your wedding cake, so the next best thing is to have fondant, textured and colored by our cake artists to look like real wood accents.
First up is a wedding cake we actually designed and created to bring to the Boston Flower and Garden Show a couple weeks ago. I've been wanting to make a woodsy-themed wedding cake for a while now, and what better than a flower and garden show to show off our new design? Sugar peonies were made to keep the cake in more of a spring theme – plus, peonies are my favorite sugar flower to make. Other sugar flowers included were stephanotis and roses with gold edging. A ruffled fondant tier was added to keep it soft and feminine. This was a large cake that is about 2′ tall and would feed about 100 wedding guests.
This second woodsy cake was for a couple who wished to keep the price a bit lower, but still wanted to incorporate the wood-bark design along with their colors. The heart is actually etched into the fondant as if it was romantically carved into a tree. Topping the cake is a large sugar dahlia.
If you're planning a woodsy-inspired wedding outdoors or are looking to bring the outdoors in, here is a great DIY tutorial we found on making your own real wooden cake stand. Although it's not our cake on the stand, we really appreciate the creative approach to a DIY wedding decoration!
A Seaside Wedding from Two Perspectives
The Wentworth by the Sea Country Club in Rye, NH, is a one-of-a-kind venue that I've been privileged to work at many times. I never tire of the view, the scent of the sea in the air… And working with Catering Director Kiersten Mayes is always a treat! So I decided to interview her, because she has the unique position of being a newly engaged lady herself as well as being the bride's go-to expert at the venue.
BB: How long have you been in the biz of working with engaged couples, specifically here at the Wentworth?
KM: I've always been interested in event planning, but it all came to fruition here at the Wentworth when I got a summer job as a banquet server while attending the University of New Hampshire. Melissa Mack of Moxie Events was our Catering Director at the time, and her passion for planning was an inspiration for me. She was so involved with each couple, helping them with customizing their menus, to the little details like a garnish for a signature cocktail. That was 10 years ago this month, and since then I've worked my way up to Banquet Captain, Banquet Manager and presently, the Catering Director.
BB: What kind of bride is a Wentworth bride?
KM: The best way to describe a Wentworth bride is to say that she is someone who loves the ocean and is easygoing, creative and fun. Most of my brides have some sort of "tie" to the seacoast area, whether it be that they vacationed here as a child, went to UNH and spent time in Portsmouth, or that it's their favorite getaway spot out of the city. We get a lot of city brides, mostly Boston. However, we've had brides travel here from as far as Singapore.
BB: What makes the Wentworth unique to other venues on the coast of New Hampshire?
KM: There aren't many venues in the area that offer a tented wedding experience without all of the "planning hassle." We try to make the experience as inclusive as possible without limiting their options for what is available. We want to work with them to customize each detail. We include the tent in our package and coordinate all of their rentals. We also handle all of our catering here on site. The alternative is finding a site and then booking the tent company, the rental company, and the catering company all separately. For the bride, it turns into a full-time job with coordinating. I really take to heart my job as being their "go-to" girl throughout the planning process, from helping them put their design vision into motion, to helping them with referrals for their other wedding vendors from flowers to entertainment. On the day of their wedding, not only am I there to coordinate, but we also have a day-of coordinator to assist the bridal party and make sure that our couples and their family and friends can just show up and enjoy their special day.
I'd like to think that this really sets us apart form other venues, but I also must mention our ocean views and location. We are so fortunate to have a gorgeous backdrop of the Marriott Wentworth by the Sea Hotel, Wentworth Marina and Little Harbor. It's a truly breathtaking location! I still get goosebumps during each wedding when I see the bride walking down the aisle with this gorgeous backdrop.
BB: How many couples do you work with in a year?
KM: We do about 25-30 weddings a year in season and a few smaller indoor weddings in our offseason. Our weddings are booked from as much as two years out, to as little as a few months. At any time, I can be coordinating with 30-40 clients. I always tell my couples that I'm available anytime to answer any question. For most of my couples, it's the first time they are doing this, and it can be overwhelming. I want to help my couples make this a fun experience and give them any advice that I can.
BB: Now that you're a bride-to-be, you're in a unique position. Please share your thoughts on how this may impact your professional life and your life as a bride.
KM: I must say that I'm truly surprised with how my engagement has changed my perspective. Although I know what a big undertaking it can be to plan a wedding, I've always prided myself on breaking it down for my clients to make it easy for them. I now have more of an idea of their mindset and know really how overwhelming it is at first. I've been engaged for a few months now and have yet to sit down and make my list, which I know is the first step. I'm going to take my own advice and break it down, so I hope to have my venue selected by the late Spring. One of the hardest parts about being is the biz is that I've worked with so many great vendors that it's going to be hard to narrow down and pick people. One of the great surprises to me regarding my engagement was how excited my brides were for me! I've gotten so many cards and kind words from my couples, even Mothers of the Brides, it's been truly special to have their support and congratulations.
BB: What is your favorite part of your job?
KM: My favorite part of my job is getting to go on this amazing journey with each couple and their families. I get to spend roughly a year with them and help them make their dream weddings a reality. It's one of the most important days in their lives and I get to help them make those memories. It's a lot of responsibility on my part, but when you love what you do it makes it that much easier. They do tend to come and go so quickly; the sad part is after the wedding is over, but I tend to keep in touch with most couples and we even invite them back for dinner on their first anniversary.
Maternity wedding dresses – more options than you think!
Nearly every bride-to-be knows that the wedding dress is not only the most fun part of planning, but is also so important to make you feel like the most beautiful woman in the room. And really, who doesn't want that? But times, they are a-changin', and (in my humble opinion, biased though I may be), it's perfectly OK to host your wedding celebration while expecting a bundle of joy. And while everyone may be familiar with this little gem of a maternity wedding gown, the sky is actually the limit when it comes to dresses available to the bride who is expecting.
Classic, no? But if you're looking for something, say, a little classier, I'd say you should keep looking.
First, let's take a look at the Empire silhouette. This is a style whose fitted bodice ends just below the bust line, at which point the gown flows loosely away, skimming the body. Easy to wear, easy to alter to fit your changing form, romantic and bridal to the max. This style probably has the most options and will ease your mind when searching for that perfect gown. Take a look at our bride from this past season, who owned it at eight months pregnant. Seriously, how beautiful is Erin?
You can find empire gowns almost everywhere; Claire Pettibone has beautiful options, as does BHLDN. If you're looking for maternity-specific empire gowns, check out Tina Mak or TIffany Rose for some gorgeous options.
Traditional empire-waisted gowns are always lovely, but don't be afraid to show off that bump, ladies. If you want to rock a more form-fitting, so-what-if-I'm-pregnant gown, you can make it happen. I know from experience that this is a scary prospect – trust me. You have to start alterations before you're the size you'll be at the actual wedding date. Maybe you're afraid the gown that is perfectly fitted in the beginning will make you look like a stuffed sausage by the time you walk down the aisle. The key is to buy bigger than you need, and work with the most talented alterations specialist you can find. Show off that bump, woman! You can do it.
This is not to say that opting for a gown that shows off your new shape is an easy task. Having tried on several Empire dresses, I knew that I wanted to be loud and proud about my pregnancy. But it took two trips to the bridal shop, and trying on more designs than I care to admit. I'm talking hours' worth of running through different gowns; everything from Greek draping styles to sheaths and more. Luckily, I had a great support system, because – particularly with the usual pregnancy hormones doing their thing – I initially found the process more than frustrating. Many pregnant women experience the same struggle; perseverance is key here. My family and Lara both loved the final choice, both because it celebrated the baby and my new body. I did feel sexy, which was rare for me with my changing shape. If you're leaning toward this style wedding dress, keep with it. You will find the perfect gown. It just takes time and patience!
In the end, I went for a lace trumpet Vera Wang and worked with a rockstar alterationist to ensure that it would still fit on the wedding day. I met with her weekly for the three weeks leading up to the marriage. It worked out perfectly – which is not to say that my heart was not in my throat when that zipper was pulled up for the last time. But thanks to the super-talented woman who handled my alterations, the gown fit like a glove – and everyone was so surprised to see a dress like that on someone who was almost eight months along! Here are some photos from the day, courtesy of the lovely and talented Meg of Rodeo and Co. Photography.
So basically, the same rules apply for the pregnant bride as the traditional bride, and that is that there are no rules. Go with your gut. If you want a form-fitting gown, you'll knock it out of the park. What's more beautiful than a glowing, pregnant woman? If you're more comfortable in an empire gown, by all means: rock it out. There are so many romantic options available in that cut, and the peace of mind alone is worth it. Either way, all eyes will be on you! Happy dress shopping!

Anatomy of a Table Vignette
Many of you might already be familiar with the idea of a table vignette, or what is sometimes called a "tablescape." The word vignette originally comes from the French word vigne, meaning vine. It is often a term used in writing to describe a literary sketch (like a scene in a play or a story). Or, in painting, it is used to describe a story visually, like in a still life with objects that have underlying meaning. I love the idea that the diminutive word origin that was used to describe a plant growing on tendrils could also mean "growing a vine" or "spinning a yarn" in terms of storytelling – literally or visually.
You may be surprised by this, but every time I create florals, whether it's a bouquet or an entire vignette, I am telling a story. If the work is geared toward your event, the story is about you and for you! In a way, I'm painting your portrait. The literal beauty of a table vignette or tablescape is that it is telling your guests the story of you – your theme for that evening. Having a combination of objects and flowers on your table will entice your guests to dream their own story and understand the significance of these objects and flowers and colors from their own point of view. Finally, when they remember your event, they will feel intertwined with it – essentially "growing a vine" from your story to create their own. And when they tell the story to someone else, it will not only bind them to you for this one night, it will bind the listener – spinning a yarn. Wow! That's amazing, isn't it? When you go to see an art show, a play, a movie, or a musical performance, sometimes you walk away feeling like you shared something special with the audience, right? This is the same thing! You are creating an experience for your guests to take away, and you happen to be the main characters in this story!
So how do you do this? Well, let's start with a real table vignette that I created for an event as inspiration!
First, you think about the event and the location. In my case, the event was The Larz Anderson Auto Museum Wedding & Bar Mitzvah Expo. What do you know about the space? What I know about Larz: it's a gorgeous, rough-hewn gentlemen's horse barn, so it lends itself to rustic yet elegant styling (you can read all about it in my past blog "What's in Season: Designing for a Fall Wedding"). Then you think about the time of year. This event's date was March 9, 2014. What is the significance of the date? Well, it's cold, and there's still a ton of snow on the ground. In my mind, what would guests want to see – where would they like to be transported to – on a cold, snowy March day? The significance of the date became more about what it could inspire about spring. A greenhouse!
My inspiration definitely had to be a greenhouse, but I also wanted it to relate to the space and the era in which the barn was built. There used to be an enormous greenhouse on-site when the mansion was still intact, so it would be a natural fit. What's my color palette? As much green as possible, with some flourishes of spring color. What other things do you think about that are in a greenhouse? I think of mismatched rusty urns and old clay pots, wood, vintage glass, bits of nature. What else? Everything looking overgrown and wild and lush. What else? Remnants of human presence: an attempt at some point to keep things in order. Okay – so NOW we have a story to tell!!
Here is my finished greenhouse-inspired vignette that I set up for the event. I set it up in my studio, and then set up the finished product with a vintage linen for the event. What was amazing to watch was how everyone just gravitated to the table. Many times, I heard guests tell me it looked like it was right out of a greenhouse, without any prompting from me at all! The story of this vignette was a success for several reasons:
- Guests understood the underlying concept, and were prompted to talk amongst themselves about the vignette with fascination and smiling faces, which I was super happy to provide on that cold winter day.
- Guests were inspired to create something similar for their event. They were pointing out all of the things they liked about it and began to create their own stories about their own events with the inspiration!
- Guests wanted to ask questions and understand how I could help them achieve a vignette look for their tables: could we do a vignette even if it is fall or summer and not spring?
My answer: "Of course! Guess what's even better about your wedding? It will be YOUR story instead!" Let's go for it
Stay tuned for my next blog, Anatomy of a Vignette, Part 2: The Elements.
Priorities: when to find and hire your officiant?
Now that you're engaged, you begin your long list of to-dos. As an officiant, it breaks my heart when I get a call from a couple who really needs me but I've been booked on their date for months; I may have been able to be there for them. They told me that everything for the big day is set in stone…everything except who will marry them!
So after you choose your date and book your venue, find an officiant. How will you choose one? Check with friends, go online, and ask other vendors!
Ask questions, meet in person, make sure you are all comfortable with one another and can speak freely!
Discuss the rehearsal if you need one; your officiant can run your rehearsal efficiently and with ease. Talk about obtaining your marriage license; your officiant can help you with that detail, and you cannot get hitched without it! It's generally under $50 and takes about 20 minutes in most cities. You both must go together to your city or town hall with photo ID. Have fun with it even though it's red tape! Grab lunch, shoot a photo and keep the license in a safe place until you hand it over to your officiant, who will file it with the State for you after the ceremony.
Vendor Visit: Bobby from Boston
In preparation for a styled shoot with the Boston Betrothed team, Lara and I (with the additional help of Elizabeth) headed out to Bobby from Boston's super-secret, not-even-open-to-the-general-public, absolutely hugenormous warehouse in Lynn, MA, to check out their amazing selection of vintage clothing. We spent a fun few hours amongst a plethora of unique and eclectic clothing and accessories, and were able to come away with some great options to dress our guys for our upcoming styled shoot! Check out a quick Behind the Scenes look at our visit!
And stay tuned for more big things from the styled shoot! We can't wait!

We develop custom fit web based solutions for plastic surgeons, cosmetic surgeons and other medical professionals.
All our consultants have years of experience in Plastic Surgery Marketing or Plastic Surgery Practice Management.
In a small practice, we can tell you within 4 hours where your problems are and how we can help.
Our goal with advertising management is to make sure you are not wasting your money on ineffective media. In our experience, most practices do.
PPC advertising is the most powerful tool to get patients to your practice.
PPC advertising is our forte. We can bring in campaigns at a lower cost than anyone which will significantly improve your profit margins.
We offer partnerships to plastic surgeons who want to increase their surgical load, but don't want to invest the necessary capital, manpower, and training in order to run successful ad campaigns.
Learn how we increased one plastic surgeon's profitability by over $450,000 in just one year during the worst recession since the Great Depression. You can do it too!
Most Plastic Surgery practices are too small to warrant having an advertising agency take care of their business. There's just not enough money in it for an ad agency at the usual commission rates of 15%. Consequently, plastic surgery offices often use ad hoc suppliers like graphic artists, printers, and local advertising talent in order to meet their internal needs.
Without an agency, practice managers are inundated with calls from media companies trying to convince them that their billboard, TV campaign, or radio spots have the best possible audience for the plastic surgery market. Indeed, all the sales people from all these media sources have just one thing in common, they do not understand the plastic surgery target audience, and therefore their recommendations usually benefit their employers more than their clients. Furthermore, their socio-demographic studies or focus group studies are not good enough to be able to cast a fine net over the plastic surgery prospect. Their nets are so wide-meshed that as a result, the cost of advertising for most plastic surgery practices is prohibitive.
The Plastic Surgery Prospect is 1/2 of 1% of Consumers
According to ASPS, the plastic surgery prospect is only one half of one percent of consumers. ANY advertising strategy that does not recognize that fact is destined for failure. We recognize that problem and have developed a strategy similar to the old time westerns; "to catch them at the pass." We know how to find the prospects when they are ready to buy, and that is what makes our campaigns successful.
TV & Radio Cost Too Much Per Impression on Target
Twenty years ago, you had a small chance to be on TV, but today, your ads won't make it past the surface clutter, unless you're willing to spend so much money that you will be obliged to do free plastic surgery. Radio offers more possibilities, but there again the problem is cost per lead because it's impossible to contain those radio waves in a tight little area around your practice. Print is hit and miss, but very measurable so it's easy to determine which ones work and which ones should be left alone.
Analysis of Cost and Source of Leads
All these advertising options need to be measured and evaluated by one person in the clinic, and where this measurement must start, is at the front desk. Every call that comes in must be measured. If you are not doing this, you are not going to be able to manage your advertising. Finally, after all the different media have been measured in terms of cost per lead, they are compared by a methodology called the Internal Rate of Return. This knowledge is critical if you want to lower the cost of lead acquisition to enable your practice to obtain the maximum advertising ROI.
Our goal with advertising management is to make sure you are not wasting your money on ineffective media. In our experience, most practices do. The most common excuses we hear are: it's cheap, it's local, I'm supporting the community, my wife likes opera (for the opera schedule ad), or I've heard many people tell me that they saw me on TV. And, we have heard many other excuses but the bottom line is: don't use them unless they bring in enough revenue to pay for themselves three to five times over; that's the minimum you should accept for advertising in any media. If it's less than that, move the expense over to charitable contributions.

I really could not be more pleased with how everything worked out. The dress was waiting for me in my office when I returned from a business trip, and while I was nervous since the box had definitely taken a beating and was even partially opened - the plastic bag that it was packed in kept it from being damaged.

Good Luck and be sure I will pass your name along to my girlfriends!

The Grove is a challenging space to play in, and seating is uncomfortable since dinner tables are set up so that you end up sitting perpendicular to the stage. Certainly you can move your chair, but if it's a full house, it is hard to maneuver so that you are not blocking people.Shawn Colvin & Steve Earle: Songs & Stories, Together On Stage info • Jul 14 2014 star this tip starred

I loved the event, though are seats were awful. We were in the very back and couldn't see the comedians at all. Not too sure if I'd use this service again.
You've seen them on TV, you voted for them, now they are here. It's an evening of great stand-up comedy featuring the five finalists from the sixth season of NBC's Emmy-Nominated laughfest "Last Comic Standing." Come see Marcus, Jeff Dye, Louis Ramey, Iliza Shlesinger, and Jim Tavare as they ignite the stage with the jokes and laughter that made them the final five in America's funniest reality show.

Can someone tell me what the advantages of silverstripe 3 over wordpress 3.9?
I did some googling but am still a bit mystified where this product fits into the market.

Silverstripe is much more than a CMS, it includes a web application framework that will let you build basically anything you need. In fact, you don't even need to use the CMS, you can just use the framework to build web applications. When I first started using SS I had evaluated over 20 different CMS's and nothing came close to the flexibility and power that SS offered to build exactly what I needed while having a CMS associated with it. There are plenty of CMS's but customizing them is almost a second thought. Sure you can write plugins for Wordpress, but you are not doing it with the speed of a framework that is designed to build out the CMS.
Re: silverstripe vs wordpress

Can you be more specific? How did it satisfy your unique business requirements for instance.
Yes, I understand wordpress is not really built on an MVC framework.
Do you have any case studies where silverstripe has saved you time or provided a feature more difficult to achieve with wordpress?
I also checked themeforest.net and there doesn't seem to be an abundant availability of silverstripe themes to choose from just yet.
I notice there are about 10 pages of themes on the silverstripe site but I am not sure if any of those come with commercial support which is probably quite important if we're reselling these to a customer.
I plan to download silverstripe myself and "road test" it when I get a chance. At this stage I'm just looking at the business case for it.

Simply put if you are a coder and you are looking to build a stable strong webbased application with is mainly custom code and you want a total decent MVC framework - silverstripe is IMHO the best.
However if you are not a coder and you want a free website built on free (or virtually free) addons and themes of which you are happy to use as is (i.e. security isn't top of your list) then go for wordpress.
Short, sarcastic maybe - but I hope it helps.

Hi All,
I have been struggling with the same question... What does SS stand out comparing to other CMS'es.
Joomla, WordPress and many more are blogging systems at first which made it to a CMS due to their popularity and world-wide acceptance. But ask yourself... Am I skilled enough to alter or develop (new) modules/themes when they don't meet my expectations? Do you want to have a CMS with lots of built in features you will never (or hardly ever) use? Then please go ahead with Joomla/WordPress. But...
If you are looking for a solid CMS that is lean and mean at the base but offers great extensibillity features?? Then take a thorough look at SS. The most important item for me t0 address is the fact that you are in control of all the features; allready existing or yet to be build.
I have built many sites in WordPress and Concrete5 and some of them I have rebuild in SS in just 40-50% of the time it took me to build them in their original CMS.
Good luck in choosing the right CMS!
Kind regards, Emil

So are you saying (or implying) that SS is not really to be compared with Wordpress & Joomla but more with a modern MVC framework (such as Symfony, Ruby on Rails or Django/Python)?
Why did you dislike the other PHP MVC frameworks that are already out there? Also why did you decide not to go with a more "modern" language like Ruby or Python? Maybe a better question then might be why did you choose PHP?
Some people say that PHP is inherently insecure (or is insecure in its default setup configuration). Much of the Wordpress security issues stem from the "default" PHP web server configuration. How are you compensating for PHP's inherent security issues?
[BTW: I did finally get around to installing silverstripe on a test machine. The default theme is fairly bare bones. Might I suggest you at least have an image in the banner? ]

There is no dislike. It's simply a choice of what is best for business and my clients. In SilverStripe, you can prototype really fast... and at the same time have a consistent admin that you can teach your clients in a couple of minutes (even via telephone) and you can be sure there likely would be no further support tickets except request for additional features.
Maybe a better question then might be why did you choose PHP?
PHP is fast and reliable... and I like brackets.
How are you compensating for PHP's inherent security issues?
It's as secure as any other web platform. Surely there are some sticking points in PHP that would be not be possible like this in other languages. But an unexperienced developer can and will write bad code regardless which language he chose.
Might I suggest you at least have an image in the banner?
What would be the purpose of that?

Diego Rivera
(Mexico, 1886 - 1957)
Artist's Biography
Diego Rivera was born in Guanajuato, Mexico on December 8, 1886.
In 1892 his family moved to Mexico City. While at the San Carlos Academy, before his protest and departure, such paintings of his as Paisaje de Mixcoac ("Mixcoac Landscape") show the influence of José Velasco, Mexico's great landscape painter.
Rivera had his first exhibition in 1907, which resulted in a scholarship that took him to Europe. After sojourns in Madrid and Paris, he went back to Mexico in the fall of 1910, In July of the following year he again left for Paris. There, between 1912 and 1917, he was affiliated with the cubist school, then considered the ultimate in avant-garde artistic expression.
Returning to Mexico in 1921, Rivera painted his first important mural in 1922. Titled Primera Energía, its theme is the primal energy that animates both Man and Woman, with all its powers and potentialities. Rivera also won high praise for frescoes, painted in 1927, for the Auditorium of the National Agricultural School at Chapingo. Some critics consider these to be his finest work. Also in this building is the mural "Biological Evolution and Social Evolution," a philosophically symbolic synthesis in which the female nude figures are considered among the most impressive in modern art.
In Mexico' s Palacio Nacional ("Presidential Palace") are frescoes that express Rivera's interpretation of Mexican history. The ones on the staircase cover the period up to 1935 and in the corridors from 1943 onward. These highlight the weltanschuaung of an artist who is also a committed ideologue. Rivera harks back to Mexico's pre-Columbian past and particularly impressive -- especially for its striking colors -- is his depiction of the marketplace in the Aztec capital of Tenochtitlán.
Rivera the political man is of almost as much interest to us as Rivera the artist. The painter was a lifelong militant atheist and revolutionary Marxist. But events in the Soviet Union would create for him an intense ideological dilemma. When Stalin gained the upper hand in the struggle against Trotsky, he banished him from Soviet territory in February 1929. At the time, Rivera sided with Trotsky. Turkey granted Trotsky asylum and he remained there until 1933, when he moved to France. In 1935 Trotsky left France for Norway but Soviet pressure got him expelled from that country at the end of 1936. At Rivera's behest, President Lázaro Cárdenas agreed to give Trotsky asylum. On January 9, 1937, his ship from Norway was greeted by the commander of Cárdenas's presidential train. Trotsky and his entourage were greeted by Rivera at a small station near Mexico City and then transported to the Blue House, Rivera's magnificent residence in Coyoacán. This would be Trotsky's home for the next two years.
In February 1938 Rivera and another Trotsky admirer, the French Surrealist poet André Breton, signed a manifesto in Partisan Review, a left-wing anti-Stalinist New York literary magazine, calling for creation of an International Federation of Revolutionary Writers and Artists. Purpose of the federation was to resist Stalinist cultural domination in the arts.
Rivera's contrarian nature caused a break between him and Trotsky in 1940. This was a presidential election year and Cárdenas's choice to succeed him was Manuel Avila Camacho, a former general who was more conservative than Cárdenas and a religious believer to boot. Though Cárdenas had welcomed Trotsky to Mexico, there was a strong Stalinist element among his followers. This faction included labor leader Vicente Lombardo Toledano and another celebrated Mexican painter, David Alfaro Siqueiros.
The Stalinist ring around Cárdenas caused Rivera, much to Trotsky's dismay, to attack Cárdenas as "an accomplice of the Stalinists." Rivera also decided to support Avila Camacho's opponent in the coming election, a general named Juan Andrew Almazán. Almazán was even more right-wing than his opponent, promising to bring the unions into line and

As a result of what would later be termed "l'affaire Rivera" by the critic André Salmon, the artist breaks with Rosenberg. Begins executing Ingres-drawing and continues to study Cezanne. Meets Elie Faure; this marks the beginning of his lifelong friendship.

A federal court ruling has opened the door for online wine merchants to sell directly to Michigan residents. Another 13 states plus the District of Columbia now permit direct-to-consumer wine shipments by out-of-state retailers.
By ruling that a Michigan law banning direct-to-consumer wine sales by out-of-state retailers is unconstitutional, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan has opened the door for online wine retailers to sell to Michigan residents.
"We support free trade, and state laws against out-of-state wine retailers are anti-consumer," says Rich Bergsund, CEO of Wine.com. "We're pleased by the federal court's ruling and are delighted to open our doors to Michigan residents." The ruling was handed down at a particularly good time, allowing Wine.com to increase market penetration in time for the holidays, Bergsund adds.
Wine.com is shipping into Michigan despite a temporary legal stay on the court ruling as Michigan legislators consider a new law that would prohibit wine shipments to residents by in-state as well as out-of-state retailers, a Wine.com spokeswoman says.
Aside from Michigan, 13 states plus the District of Columbia allow for direct-to-consumer wine shipments from out-of-state retailers, says Tom Wark, executive director of the Specialty Wine Retailers Association.

Chevron says on track to grow production to 3.1M boepd by 2017
Chevron provided an overview of the company's 2013 operational performance and future growth plans at its 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, with CEO John Watson discussing Chevron's 2013 financial and operational performance. George Kirkland, Chevron vice chairman, said the company is on track to grow production to 3.1M barrels of oil-equivalent per day by 2017, up 20% from 2013, with more growth expected through the end of the decade. To reach this goal, the company has more than 70 projects, each with a Chevron share of more than $250M, scheduled to start-up by the end of this decade. In Australia, the Gorgon project continues to make steady progress toward first liquefied natural gas, and is 80% complete with start-up expected in mid-2015. Wheatstone is now almost 35% complete and remains on schedule for a start-up in 2016. Kirkland said growth plans include investing $39.8B in 2014, which represents a $2B reduction from 2013 spending.

by Family van satisfaction!!!! from Jackson, michigan | March 9, 2014
This van so far suits me and my family well for the money we gave up a little comfort as far as luxury goes but the ride is smooth and the kids love the space. We love the double doors on both sides and the van runs great and not too bad at all on gas.

by Father concern about family safety in this van from Eau Claire, WI | October 14, 2007
I bought a newer vehicle for the saftey reason of my family. Occasionally the front end shifts from left to right like a violent shimmy. To the point that you feel like you are going to end up in a ditch. Machanics (even the dealership) can't tell me why this is happening. What is puzzling, is that it doesn't happen every time you brake. Just recently I found out that there is a design flaw in the air conditioning compressor and I may need to spend $1000.00 every other year to keep replacing it. (the defrost won't even work without this compressor). Basically, I bought a three year old vehicle that acts worse, at times, than a 20 year old vehicle.
