Softball sweeps FGCU, 8-0 (5) & 5-2
Related Links
Timely hits and two solid pitching efforts from junior Sarah Sigrest helped the JU softball team take an A-Sun doubleheader from Florida Gulf Coast, 8-0 (5) & 5-2, on Monday night at the JU Softball Complex.
The Dolphins (35-14, 14-2 A-Sun) used eight runs on 11 hits in the first game before having senior Katie Kelly, junior Brittany Eppley and junior Amanda Schmidt each homer in game two to tie the program record for wins with the 2005 squad.
Sigrest (19-5) earned both wins in the circle after allowing just one hit and striking out seven in the first game, while surrendering one run on four Eagles' (28-24, 11-5) hits and three strikeouts during 5.1 relief frames in the night cap.
"These were two more good wins," said JU head coach Amanda Lehotak. "We had a challenging weekend with Campbell and FGCU at home, but our kids rose to the occasion each time. Even though we are off for finals, we are going to work on the small things so we can stay sharp for our final set of games."
Schmidt and Kelly led the JU offense by driving in three runs each. Sophomore Olivia Kline and junior Kayla Ouellet both added two hits in the first game.
Catherine McDaniel (14-10) took the game one loss for the Eagles after allowing eight runs on nine hits and five walks in 3.2 innings. Kelci Breaux (2-2) allowed five runs, three earned, on four hits in three innings to get tagged with the game two loss.
The Eagles offense got a hit each game from Kirsten Bembnowski, while Brittney Garabedian added a home run in the night cap.
In game one, the Dolphins took a 1-0 advantage in the first inning when Schmidt doubled home Ouellet following her leadoff single.
Schmidt and sophomore Sarah Simon drew consecutive walks to start the JU third inning. Freshman Karson Tuck laced a ball that bounced off the leg of Bembnowski at third and went into left field to score Schmidt for the 2-0 lead. Freshman Jacey Warner advanced the runners into scoring position with a ground out, while Kline followed with a single to score Simon. Kelly added a single through the left side to plate Tuck and round out the three-run inning.
In the fourth inning, Ouellet led off with an infield single to the short stop. Simon walked with one out, but McDaniel got Tuck to pop out. Warner kept the inning alive with a single that dropped in front of the left fielder, allowing Ouellet to score for the 5-0 lead. Kline followed with a single to load the bases, while Kelly worked a walk to plate Simon.
McDaniel was lifted for Stephanie Sullivan, who allowed a single to center field by freshman Meagan Balding to score Warner for the 7-0 advantage. Eppley followed with a single to shortstop Regan Kanpik in the far corner of the infield to plate sophomore Morgan Kibler and round out the scoring.
Sigrest started the game by striking out the side in the first inning. She retired the next 10 in a row before allowing a one-out single from Bembnowski to left field in the fourth inning. Warner overthrew her cut off on the play, but Eppley caught the wild throw and gunned down Bembnowksi at second base. Sigrest retired the next batter to end the game early.
In game two, the Dolphins struggled some as Kline allowed a leadoff single in the first inning to Tori Williams before hitting the next batter and walking Courtney Platt to load the bases. Kline got two quick outs, but hit Emily Lanier with a pitch and scored Williams for the 1-0 lead.
Kline retired the first two batters she faced in the second inning, but walked the next two hitters. Sigrest came in and got a line out to end the inning.
In the bottom of the second inning, Tuck reached on a fielding error by Breaux and move to second in the next at-bat on a sacrifice bunt by Warner. Breaux got a line out, but Kelly followed with a two-run homer over the left center field fence to give JU a 2-1 lead.
The homers would come in again in the third inning with a lead off solo shot to left center field by Eppley. Ouellet singled in the next at-bat, while Schmidt followed with a home run off the scoreboard to put JU up 5-1.
Platt recorded a one-out double for the Eagles in the fifth inning. Mariah Fernandez hit hard grounder back to Sigrest that she deflected off of her glove to Kelly who completed the ground out. Sigrest left Platt stranded after getting a ground out in the next at-bat to quash the threat.
Sigrest allowed a one-out home run to Garabedian and a walk to Platt, but retired the next two batters with fly outs to left field to secure the sweep.
The Dolphins will take the next week and half for finals before competing again on April 27 with a single game at Bethune-Cookman. First pitch is at 4 p.m.

Oh, man! That's so hard—having one twin in and one twin out. I've never had twins, but I saw several twins separated and I'm sure you feel like you're been torn in a million directions (that's how I felt and I didn't even have twins—just a NICU babe with two more at home).
I'll join in prayers for Clancy as well.

"Pretty Good Phone!"The good: Lightweight, Cheap, Indestructible, Easy to Use, and Great Call Quality The bad: Battery Life (later on; see summary), Buttons, and not much else. Summary: This was my first cell phone, and it worked great. After owning it for almost 2 years, I still love it. For some reason, after a while, the 4 button would only register half of the time, which was annoying while texting, but that was it. The only reason that I stopped using it (it still works) is that the battery life got down to... more...

Ship Repair Yard
Tallink Cruise Ship Receives Maintenance at BLRT Yard
The maintenance of passenger ferry Victoria I at Finland's largest ship repair yard, a part of BLRT Grupp, has been finished. Scheduled maintenance of Victoria I was carried out within six days at Turku Repair Yard's dry dock. "The success of such projects, when quality maintenance has to be executed within shortest possible time, is ensured by smooth cooperation of BLRT Grupp and ship owner teams and partners. We are proud that our experience gives Tallink Grupp the confidence to place repair works with us," said Vesa Marttinen, the Managing Director of Turku Repair Yard. Victoria I underwent dock repairs in order to align vessel's mechanisms and parts with the requirements of classification society Bureau Veritas. It is already ten years since the ferry started operating, so the scope of maintenance works it underwent was extensive. The works comprised the repair of steering gear, propellers and Cedervall propulsion shaft seals. Underwater hull was cleaned and coated. Also, vessel's bow visor, stern ramp and sea valves were repaired. All works were completed on time. "We have been working with Turku Repair Yard for several years, and we are content with their combined ability to meet the deadlines and provide good work quality," said Pavel Kondrashov, the senior tehnical superintendent of Tallink Grupp.

News: Mase On Jay-Z/Beanie Sigel Conflict, "It Don't Matter What Diss Record You Got, You Still Need A Hit"
Monday, Nov 23, 2009 10:40AM
Former Bad Boy protege Mase recently weighed in on the publicized dispute between ex-labelmates Beanie Sigel and Jay-Z by saying diss records don't sell albums.
From Mase's perspective, today's rap beefs are more of a gimmick than they were during the mid-1990's East Coast and West Coast conflicts.
"Beans and Jay, I think it's ridiculous," Mase explained to DJ Drama. "I think it's ridiculous you know, I think it's ridiculous really. It's not called for, you know what I'm saying? I don't know, I come from a different, like when I was doing rap and people had issues, they just go across your head, they from that go up side generation. Not all these records and all that. They just go up. [laughs] When we was going up against the West Coast, it was like real serious issues, it wasn't just do it because your album is coming out. The gimmicky era, 'What I need to do to sell some records?' I don't believe you sell records off diss records, I think you sell 'em off hit records. It don't matter what diss record you got, you still need a hit record." (Shade 45)
Lil Scrappy recently hit up SOHH and explained why diss records and rap beefs do not typically work out financially in the long run.
"If you a real gangsta, cuz, you tell the n*gga to go meet you somewhere. Whatever we gonna do, let's do it and be done with it. If you 'not' gonna do it, then make that joint big. Get some money off of it 'cause when you going against each other, you really don't make no money, 'cause his fans don't like you and the other dude, his fans don't like you. So they would have bought [your merchandise] if y'all weren't even beefing." (SOHH)
Roc Nation's J. Cole said despite his loyalty toward Hov, he could not see himself becoming involved in the dispute.
"I don't know anything about that situation, to really have an opinion, so my opinion really don't [mean] nothing," Cole explained in an interview. "But I will say, like, from a fan standpoint, it's just a fan answer, you can really tell some pain in the words he's saying. I don't know any facts or details of what happened, like, that was before my era. It was a whole different time, a whole different culture I think of how they ran they business back then but you could just tell, it's coming from somewhere because you can hear the pain in his voice. You can hear real emotion. But I don't know details and specifics though. I don't know Beanie Sigel, I never met him. [Young] Chris is cool, Young Chris is real cool. I always run in to him, that's my man right there but I don't know Beanie Sigel...[Jay and Beans] are really street n*ggas, they come from a culture where it's like that's kinda how it is. I don't even think Jay's in that place [to beef] no more. He's far from that place and I'm d*mn sure not in that place, I went to school. Like, I understand it -- but that's not even my place [to make a diss record with Jay.]" (Hard Knock TV)
In addition to interview disses, Beans released a few hard-hitting anti-Hov records over the weekend.
"The takeover, n*gga, the break's over," Beans raps. "Fraud emcee, he, Jay Hova/Hey little soldier you ain't ready for the rude boy/quick to pull the tool boy/back out to you boy...Yeah I send something to you boy, let these hollows run through you boy/I'll ruin boy, make your body leak fluid boy...Can't trust you like a pope and a school boy/Think you're cool boy, 'cause you're running with the tool boy/You ain't nothing but a mule boy/You ain't a goon boy/You just a flip flop, white pants, greasy head funny looking school boy/Let's get to it boy/You don't really wanna do it boy...Yeah, what up boy? You don't got no words for me boy? You don't say nothing boy? D*mn, I thought you was the boy, boy? You ain't nothing but a boy boy, boy. Holla at your boy. I ain't gonna stop, boy! I'm not gonna stop." ("How I Can Kill Jigga Man")

CATEGORIES Horror, Thrillers, CinematicalBy Alison Nastasi
Darren Aronofsky's latest film is a thriller with a supernatural twist. Black Swan is currently in pre-production and Slashfilm recently revealed full casting details for the film. It was already announced that Natalie Portman will star as Nina, a veteran ballerina competing against a mysterious rival dancer, Lily, played by Mila Kunis. As the dancers approach an important performance, Nina starts to question if her rival is a supernatural apparition or if she's having delusions and her identity starts to blur with that of her eerily similar competitor. To the absolute joy of fanboys everywhere, the film includes an "ecstasy-induced hungry, aggressive, angry sex" scene between Portman and Kunis. Having flashbacks to Requiem for a Dream yet?
Joining the cast of Black Swan will be Vincent Cassel, Winona Ryder and Barbara Hershey. Ryder plays Beth, Nina's frenemie who used to be the star dancer but is nearing the end of her career. Hmm. Cassel is the "handsome but sinister" (love him but no shocker here) Yevna who is the stage director and Hershey is Nina's mother.

text: The summer is nearly over and I haven't posted my pictures from my show in Land O'Lakes, WI this past spring. The weather was the main attraction that day. It rained and drizzled all day. But the Art Gypsies are a hardy bunch and we hovered in our tents, covering our precious creations and kept a smile on our face. Many people came anyway. All with rain gear, umbrellas and hats. They still managed to enjoy the music, taste all the goodies and coffee we provided and buy a little art. My art cards were well received. A few journals were purchased and one of my baby sweater sets was bought by a proud grandma.

How to Regain Your Self-Confidence
Gaining self-confidence is one thing, getting your confidence back after a personal or professional disaster (either real or perceived) is a substantially different situation.
There are many instances in life where your confidence is hit hard . . . divorce, being fired from a job or just making a really public mistake, just to name a few. Sometimes you overcome life's hardness, sometimes you get overwhelmed. Sometimes your courage and confidence sees you through, but sometimes your self-confidence really takes a beating.
Here are four ways to help you begin regaining your self-confidence.
Forgive Yourself
Whatever experience or situation that caused you to lose your confidence needn't have been your fault for you to be carrying around a load of embarrassment or guilt. It's human nature to feel that somehow you should have known, or been able to prevent the situation.
- Best case scenario, there was no way you could have predicted what happened, if you could accurately predict life, you'd be rich and famous and probably wouldn't care if you missed one or two calls. Get over yourself and move on.
- Worst case scenario, no doubt about it you were at fault. Learn from the experience, become a better person for it, forgive yourself and move on.
Whichever the case, chance are good whatever happened is not as important as the impact it has had on you, rather the impact that you let the problem create for you. In life pain is inevitable but suffering is optional, and self-pity is very addictive and capable of destroying lives. It's purely your choice, and whether you choose to bounce back or suffer is entirely your prerogative. Remember that "nobody can hurt you without your consent."
Keep a Personal Journal
Journal every day and be sure to list your positive accomplishments for the day. Writing down your accomplishments – no matter how small – will reinforce into your subconscious that you are capable of handling the tasks you are pursuing.
If something did not go as planned, instead of being hard on yourself, write down what you learned from the experience. This will reinforce into your subconscious that failure is not negative and much can be learned from it to guide you to success.
Review Your Accomplishments
Reviewing and visualizing your accomplishments will increase your self-confidence. Make your visualization as vivid as possible; remember as many details as you can, as if that past experience were happening right now. As you do so, you'll notice that feeling of self-assurance coming back strong and you'll become familiar with it again.
Fake It Till You Make It
Feelings influence behavior. Put on a big smile, lift your head and believe you are a self-assured, confident person. Remember, other people don't know about your internal securities unless you tell them, so go ahead and pretend, and before you know it you'll begin to feel better, and before long much more confident.
Cultivate the courage to embrace whatever is unfolding in your life and whatever cranky, hating feelings you may feel about it. Hold your precious self with tender compassion as you do. ~Unknown Author

The key to regaining your confidence "once lost" is to first never accept that it has been lost in the the 1st place. If you accept or tell yourself you have lost your confidence then you surely will lose it.
I think when you have reached the point to where you believe your self-confidence is in question you have to start to ask yourself better questions.
We are the questions that we ask of ourselves, ask a better question and you will get a better answer.
Good Article! Written with confidence : )

That last point you made surely rings true. I also advice this where building confidence is concerned. The thing about faking it, is that when fool people into thinking you're confident, they treat you accordingly (with respect). This is great for how you feel about yourself.
I've got a new wordpress confidence blog and have just added your site to my blogroll. I hope to return to read some of your articles and to perhaps share some of mine too.

Hi thank you for this article it is inspiring and helps daily, i have had a very successful life up until my seperation, 5 years ago, looking to escape my pain i fell into drugs, for 10 months strong and trying to overcome for 3 more years, finally one year sober the guilt and loss of all i had accumulated in my life is overwhelming, and has me binded back in my old life with my controlling ex and no confidence to get back up. Looking forward to an exciting and happier future for myself. Thank you

This article makes a lot of sense and I am going to apply to my new routine! I have seriously been overwhelmed lately with work, single mom, new boyfriend and going back to school after 20 years. At first, taking online classes sounded easy and convienient, but oh was I so wrong. The last 5 months I have felt my confidence sink into the ground. All my life I have had fellow co-workers and friends compliment me on my confidence. Had a friend tell me a few months ago that I just don't hold my head as high as I used to! I need to forgive myself, review what achomplishments I have made, keep a journal, and when I am feeling overwhelmed – put on a huge smile on my face and hold my head high! I can do this!
Thanks! I am glad I decided to google 'how to boost confidence'!

Regaining your self-co9nfidence is a very difficult thing to do especially if no one encourages you to do so. When you are in deep blue and no one tap your back while saying "It's okay. You have your second chance.", you feel that no one cares about your feelings. But whatever condemnation they will do, you must learn how to stand up after you stumbled and to fight back.
April 24, 2011
Hi Marty,
We found your post very interesting. The points of forgiving yourself in best and worst scenarios, keeping a journal and fake it til you make it are very good.
About the last point, we've heard somebody suggest that we imagine ourselves being millionaire and have everything we ever wanted to have, and then asked: wouldn't you speak and behave more confidently? Then that's what you need to think about every day. Imagine yourself in that situation and others will see the difference in your posture… and your subconscious as well!
Thanks for sharing!

Hi Marty,
Your little twitter bird keeps following me!
I think forgiving yourself is a major solution to regaining your self-confidence after a tough life struggle. All of us at some time in our lives will have to deal with life's struggles and what is important is how we handle it. I'm always impressed with people who can get through a bad situation with a positive attitude. That positivity comes from being secure with yourself and realizing, as you stated, "get over yourself and move on." We can pick whatever side we want….basically either negative or positive. It is OUR choice. We have the power to shape our destiny for the day, the month, through the years, and our lives!
Keeping a journal really helps me and listing accomplishments can change everything. Another way I handle the tough times is working with my scrapbooks. It is great therapy and is a way to journal using photographs of good times, friends, and family. Reflecting back on nice memories helps me a lot! Any of your suggestions will start to move the hurt in a positive direction and with time, our hearts heal.
Finally, I have to note your quote, "nobody can hurt you without your consent." That is very POWERFUL. Thanks Marty,
Raena Lynn

If you love travelling, then chances are you've experienced having problems when it comes to looking for a great place to stay. Some people, when looking for accommodations, prefer something that looks and feels the same as every other hotel in the world. But if you're looking for something more culture-specific, or some place that would give you a new experience, you should look into boutique hotels in San Francisco, like the Hotel Majestic for example.
Big hotel chains have always dominated this type of business, but in the early 1980s, small, independent hotels began popping up all over the world, especially in major cities such as San Francisco and Paris. The term 'boutique hotel' was coined when the first few owners of this type of hotel contrasted their approach to the department-store style that major hotel chains used. These hotels became popular because they offer a new experience. Since then, boutique hotels have become the preferred type of accommodation for a lot of travelers.
The main difference between boutique hotels and major hotel chains is that the former usually has less than a hundred and fifty rooms. Boutique hotels pride themselves in personalized service, which can only be achieved with a low employee-to-guest ratio. Some boutique hotels even require their staff to address the guests by name, which you wouldn't get in big hotels anywhere in the world.
As mentioned earlier, major hotel chains usually have the same design for their hotels all over the world—the exteriors are the same, the rooms all follow the same design. Boutique hotels, on the other hand, are usually patterned after the culture of the city they are in, or follow a specific period or theme. The Hotel Majestic for example, an Edwardian hotel San Francisco has, takes you back to the early 1900s.
Boutique hotels are commonly found in major cities where the amount of traffic can keep them profitable. You can find boutique hotels with specific themes especially in cities that have a lot of historical significance or have a well defined culture. Resort destinations are also prime locations for boutique hotels.
The primary target of boutique hotels used to be young travelers, or those who had the time and the budget to properly experience what boutique hotels had to offer. Today though, people from all walks of life prefer boutique hotels over others. The new experience that it offers is a major selling point for this niche in the hotel industry.
So when you're traveling, you should take a look at the boutique hotels San Francisco California has. Imagine a homey hotel with personalized service. Doesn't that sound appealing?

The Mighty Indians
Come with us now on a journey through time and space, to the world of the Cleveland Indians.
Marte: Hi, I'm Andy Marte, and this crazy character is Eric Wedge.
Wedge: Don't touch me.
Marte: He's such a joker.
Wedge: I'm not joking. Don't ever touch me. Not now, not during the game.
Both: Ah...
Wedge: Don't touch me. Andy, I thought you were dead.
Laporta: I rescued him from the edge of death.
Wedge: Well, what do you want a chocolate fruitcake with beans on it? Get to work.
(Mark Shaprio walks into the room. Rifle in hand, he fires into the air, the players scatter)
Shapiro: Nothing to worry about. I'm sorting things out here.
Hafner: Where are all the players from the team going Mark? Something's wrong here, I'm going to get to the bottom of this.
Shapiro: Shut up Travis, you're out of your depth.
(to Wedge) The old men that sponsor the team are coming by today, and if they see the team knocking on death's door, they aren't going to pay me bo-diddly.
Wedge: So, what do you want me to do about it?
Shapiro: I want you to dress as a gorilla. You know, eat a banana, dance around, kick some hay.
Wedge: I'm not doin' that. I'm a man. I've got dignity and poise, I'm not dressing up as a gorilla.
Shapiro: Well, if you don't all the players will go poor and they won't be able to afford toboggans and sausages. Walk and talk with me. I'm your boss man, but I'm also your friend. I'm not your wife, but we have made massively violent love. Did I say that out loud?
Wedge (to Andy): Are you still here?
(Andy drops his head, feeling dejected once again. Suddenly music fills the clubhouse)
Andy: All the things I'll never see.
All the things I'll never be.
All there is that's left for me,
Is here in this eternity
Of Isolation...Isolation.
The cavalcade, the jamboree
Of life I thought was meant for me.
I never dreamed that it would be
Replaced by this eternity
Of Isolation...Isolation
Wedge: Okay, you made your point in song format.
(Andy sullenly shuffles back to the end of the bench. As he nears his designated seat, Andy overhears several conversations)
Wood: What do you think of me?
Marson: I don't rightly know, Sir.
Wood: Make an assessment.
Marson: I suspect you're a right Southern gentleman.
Wood: You got that right mother licker.
You failed to take into account my mirror balls.
Gimenez: Think of it. Chris Gimenez Colon Player.
Brantley: Colon player?
Gimenez: It has ring to it.
Brantley: I think it has the wrong ring to it.
Choo: Noooooo...who are you? How can I understand you?
Sizemore: I'm Grady Sizemore. The man, the myth, the maverick.
(Grady's arm in a sling, all look concerned as to whether or not he will be able to return to 2006 form)
Skinner: There's only one way to get this boy ready for the game.
Willis: Training montage...
Shelton: with music.
Sizemore: This is a dangerous mission. All I ask is you remember me.
(leaves room)
Wedge:Who was that?
Hafner: I've got a bad feeling about this.
(Having successfully convinced Grady to have season ending surgery and brokered three trades which will be completed at season's end, Shaprio and Dolan sit together in the owner's box. There conversation turns to the team...and money)
Dolan: This is sheer liquid wonderment.
Shapiro: We're going to make a fortune. We could split the profits 50-50.
Dolan: 60-40.
Shapiro: What?
Dolan: Nothing, my pretty.
Shapiro: Flirtini's for everyone.
And so, the moral of the story is, "Never loo..."

It's been just over a week since the Presidential Election yet voters in Old Lyme were called to the polls yet again yesterday, this time to elect a new member to the Board of Education.
After such an exhausting election season, voters could have been forgiven if they opted to sit this one out, but Old Lyme residents place a premium on quality education and the Lyme-Old Lyme Middle School was packed with people who turned out to vote at the Special Town Meeting.
Old Lyme may be a small town but there's no shortage of people willing to serve as volunteers on the boards and committees needed to keep things running smoothly. When Judith Read, a Republican, announced she would be resigning from the Board of Education for health reasons mid-term, two well-qualified candidates volunteered to fill the spot until the next election in November 2013.
High School chemistry teacher Diane Linderman was the Democratic nominee. Linderman is a longtime member of the Lyme-Old Lyme Middle School PTO, serves on the Ad Hoc Building Committee, and has served as President of Friends of Music at the High School.
Lynn Fairfield-Sonn, who nominated Linderman for the position, described her as committed, smart, and practical, and as someone who "understands the importance of a good education."
The Republican candidate Steve Spooner is a pilot and a business owner who manages a staff of 30. He also serves as a "classroom Dad" at Mile Creek Middle School and is vice president of that school's PTO.
Either candidate would have been a fine choice but when the votes were counted, Spooner emerged the winner.
"As a member of the Board of Education, I look forward to serving the students, teachers, and the taxpayers," Spooner said. "We have an outstanding school district with very engaged parents and I look forward to maintaining that and working on behalf of all residents."
What Spooner Hopes To Achieve As a Member of the Board
Spooner had prepared a speech, which he didn't actually make last night, but here are a few key points from his prepared statement.
"I believe the Board of Education should be an apolitical position. In this role, I see myself listening to the needs of out parents and residents and advocating on their behalf. As our district transitions to the new Common Core State Standards curriculum, I look forward to discussing the most appropriate methods in implementing these changes."
"In Old Lyme we have numerous voting constituencies; it is imperative that the Board presents reasonable and passable budgets that are acceptable and considerate of the taxpayer who provides the funding. The budget is ultimately a balancing act and must reflect our educational priorities."
"This year our school district welcomes a new superintendent and launches a redistricting plan. Our high school is also completing an extensive renovation. We do, however, continue to face many challenges as a community.
"The board must maintain a 'continuous improvement' mentality when it comes to determining appropriate policy to address these challenges especially when it comes to the influence of social media, facebook, video phones, and bullying. I look forward to advocating on behalf of our students on these important issues.
"I am excited to serve the residents of Old Lyme and look forward to being part of the Board of Education."

Heisman runner-up Colt McCoy shot-em-up, with 266 yards in the air, and an additional 66 yards on the ground. Brain Johnson's offense struggled to make a first down the entire first quarter, falling into a 14 point hole, before finally sustaining an 8 play, 79 yard drive, earmarked by a 47 yard pass to Freddie Brown.

Je ne sais quoi.
This French phrase is used to describe
something that cannot be described.
Like - how dry Rose wine
tastes better in the summer sunshine.
Like - how roses from a lover
smell sweeter than those I buy for myself.
Garance Dore exudes a certain 'je ne sais quoi'
as she sits, immersed in conversation in her hat.
The photo and blog post is here:
Garance shares her experience of
walking down the street in a hat she adores.
People can't help but admire her.
Is it just the hat?
Or is it how her personality
just blossoms when she wears it?
This lady sure knows who she is
and loves herself,
and loves herself,
doesn't she?
Has a hat ever made you feel
like a Vogue fashion spread?
like a Vogue fashion spread?

A family is mourning the loss of four pets after their home outside Avondale caught on fire early Wednesday morning. Collin Williams with Rural Metro Fire says the family of four was asleep around 2:45 a.m. when one of them woke up, heard a big pop and then saw flames and smoke on the patio.Williams says the homeowner originally thought he was woken up by a storm, but quickly found out his house, near Avondale and Southern, had caught fire.
There are no fire hydrants near the home, so fire crews had to shuttle water from other hydrants using their fire truck."Because we are in an area that's a county island out here, rural area, there are no hydrants so it was necessary to bring in water from a nearby hydrant," said Williams.
Firefighters were able to get the fire under control, but two cats and two dogs were lost in the blaze. The family's horses and tortoise weren't harmed."My granddaughter got her puppy but we didn't get the other pets. We didn't get anyone else, the smoke was a foot off the floor by the time I got everyone to the front door," said Randy Huron.
Williams says the attic was fully engulfed in flames and a lot of items were burned inside. There will be an ongoing investigation to figure out the cause of the fire. The family says they are fortunate to have made it out alive.

The Steelers have been through this situation before. Even if Le'Veon Bell misses extended time because of his Lis Franc injury, it is not the end of the world for the Steelers running game or Bell's career.
Look back to 2008 when Rashard Mendenhall missed all but 4 games of his rookie season thanks to a shoulder injury caused by Ravens LB Ray Lewis (which may or may not have been a bounty taken out on the rookie RB). Mendenhall then went on to have a few above-average productive seasons for the Steelers before once again succumbing to the injury bug and suffered a Torn ACL against the Cleveland Browns in 2011.
While Mendenhall's career isn't necessarily the best comparison to Bell's as of now (and other, less optimistic people could take negatives from it and "foresee" doom for Bell), it points out the fact that Bell's injury isn't cause for panic, contrary to the immediate reactions following the news during Monday night's game against the Washington Redskins. I know people were/are expecting Bell to be the Franchise RB for the Steelers and he could still be that guy. All I am asking is for some of you to have a little patience. It IS only Preseason after all. You need to take whatever happens right now with a grain of salt.


text: I'll skip over the fact that I've not written anything on here since July last year. That'll all be covered in a later post. Maybe. Instead I'll be telling you about my recent visit to Liverpool, because a) that's more interesting and b) it's certainly fresher in my mind. Since me and my girlfriend Alison founded Red Army Fiction last May I've been meaning to get away somewhere to see if it would help my writing, and it has. I don't know if it was just being away from London or whether it was something about Liverpool in particular that did it, but over the last few days I've not been able to put my pen down.

In a season which has seen significant roster upheaval, sparse frontcourt depth and a dedication to nurture youth development from upstairs, Kevin Seraphin has failed to make any semblance of an impact on a game-to-game basis -- apart from picking up quick fouls. He sets great picks, has displayed a toughness which this team has long lacked, and has exhibited a nifty hook inside, but he has generally failed to take advantage of the ample playing time that has been readily available for the taking. Moreover, he has shown the least amount of growth of any other Wizard this season.
Naturally with any rookie, he's extremely young, all the more raw given his comparative inexperience in competitive basketball (5 years I believe), and was widely assumed to be a candidate for the D-league by most teams prior to the draft. This inherently makes any growth this season a plus, effectively a notch in the belt looking to the future.
Unfortunately for Seraphin, there won't be the necessary minutes available for him to continue to develop in Washington.
With this in mind, we currently have 6 players that figure to command significant minutes: Wall, Young, Crawford, McGee, Blatche, and Booker. When you consider our top-5 pick, that immediately makes 7. And then you add Atlanta's first round pick, our 2012 lottery pick (probably top-10), and our marquee player addition in 2012 or 2013 (either through free agency or a trade… Kevin Love is unrestricted in 2013, restricted after next season) -- suddenly there is barely room for Seraphin to see court time.
Not to mention that Rashard Lewis will demand significant minutes next season. And any other veteran big man we pick up in free agency. (And Othyus Jeffers!)
Ultimately, Seraphin represents our greatest trade chip if we do in fact keep Blatche around. He represents our only opportunity to move into the top 10 of the draft with Atlanta's pick, a similar opportunity to move up next season, or as a piece to be used to attempt to pry a disgruntled DeMarcus Cousins out of Sacremento down the line (or a player of similar talent). Seraphin is all the more valuable in a trade given that he is on an exceedingly cheap contract that makes him a restricted free agent for the 2014/2015 season.
While Seraphin provides value as an end-of-bench body to get hard fouls, someone who (ideally) trains hard and can present tough opposition for Blatche/Booker/draftpick in practice, he most likely won't get the chance to develop in Washington. Certainly not if we add someone like Enes Kanter in the draft. Not only does he need minutes that won't be available here, but he will almost certainly be no better than a 10th or 11th man on a Wizards team that will be ready to compete in the playoffs come 2013. Which makes him as good as gone -- just a matter of time.

Women and men looking for an effective treatment for varicose veins that does not include surgery or scarring may want to consider endovenous laser ablation, an advanced vein therapy that is highly effective in most cases. Endovenous laser ablation is virtually pain free and can be performed in less than an hour and without hospitalization. In this minimally invasive procedure, laser energy is used to seal faulty veins, which results in a reduction or complete closure of the vein.
A trained professional administers endovenous laser ablation to patients in a doctor office setting as an outpatient procedure. Ultrasound imaging is used to map the veins of the legs, as well as to direct the insertion and placement of a laser fiber that is used to deliver the laser energy to targeted veins. Once the provider identifies the faulty veins, a local anesthetic will be administered to ensure patient comfort prior to beginning the procedure. This treatment most often is performed in under an hour and recipients can return to regular activities, except strenuous exercise, right after the procedure. Compression stockings should be worn for one week to ensure proper healing and a follow up visit will be scheduled approximately one week after the initial treatment.
Geographical location, practitioner fees and the number of veins to be treated influence the cost of receiving endovenous laser ablation. If the endovenous laser ablation procedure is considered medically necessary in order to alleviate the pain that is often associated with varicose veins, this treatment will likely be covered by medical insurance.
Contacting a vein specialist in your area is the best way to learn more about endovenous laser ablation and to determine if this is the best option for you.
At Image Guided Surgery & Aesthetics, patients have overcome Union varicose veins and spider veins in a safe, comfortable environment. All procedures are performed by a trained and skilled medical professional who is dedicated to patient safety and well-being. There is a variety of treatments available at this clinic to ensure that patients have ample selection in treatment options. Those interested are encouraged to consult a member of the medical staff at this Union varicose veins treatment clinic to determine which treatments may provide the best results.
Among the treatments available at this Union varicose veins treatment center are compression stockings, endovenous laser ablation, foam sclerotherapy, intense pulsed light therapy, microphlebectomy, radiofrequency occlusion, Veinwave and VNUS. For more information about these or other treatments, patients should consult a member of the medical staff at this facility. All treatments and procedures are performed using effective tools and technology to ensure the safety and well-being of all patients.

Implement a jobs strategy
Will "implement a real jobs strategy for Milwaukee County, including establishment of a final Park East Plan that will turn the vacant land into job-generating development."
Subjects: Jobs
With one-year term running out, no evidence of implementation
Updated: Friday, March 16th, 2012 | By Tom Kertscher
As part of his "one-year agenda to change Milwaukee County," Chris Abele said as county executive he would "implement a real jobs strategy for Milwaukee County, including establishment of a final Park East Plan that will turn the vacant land into job-generating development."
We've already rated the Park East part of that statement as Promise Broken.
We haven't seen a tangible jobs strategy, either. So we asked Abele deputy chief of staff John Zapfel about that particular promise.
Zapfel said Abele "has begun taking actions on this priority" by reorganizing the county economic development department and having those staffers meet with businesses and municipalities to talk about creating jobs. He said staff and Abele himself also meet with business associations, universities and other groups "that connect to job development."
"The goal for all of these relationships is to have as broad and comprehensive knowledge of the needs and opportunities for job creators and job seekers and to connect and facilitate," Zapfel said.
Like some of the others, Abele may be able to accomplish this in a full four-year term (He is unopposed on the April 2012 ballot).
But he pledged to do it in one year.
We rate this Abele pledge a Promise Broken.

In a significant step forward for sexual minorities in Bangladesh, the country's first LGBTQI Bengali-language magazine 'Roopbaan' (after a local folk-tale character who went to extraordinary lengths for love) has been launched.
While talking to Dhaka Tribune, the editor shared the excitement over this launch: 'The main reason for publishing this magazine is to promote love and the right to love. In today's disturbed socio-political context, the audience such a publication promoting love is huge and that's whom this is for.' The high-profile, invite-only launch of the 56-page first edition on Saturday, January 18, 2014 was attended by the British High Commissioner to Bangladesh, Robert Gibson, who contextualized it with the recent re-criminalization of homosexuality in neighboring India.

When you dig in to a cone of Boston Cream Pie-flavored Ben & Jerry's ice cream the last thing the company wants you to think of is Boston Cream Thigh.
"A little clever," laughed Charlotte Doggett of Burlington.
It's what pornography company Rodax Distributors and Caballero Video are hoping you eat up. With its line of XXX videos called Ben and Cherry's taking the iconic Vermont brand to a hardcore level.
"I'm insulted by it, being a woman," said Tammy Ryan of Burlington. "Kids eat the ice cream. How are we coming across to our children?"
It's put a bad taste in Ben & Jerry's mouth as well, that's why it's suing the movie company for selling the DVDs. The ice cream maker claims the videos violate its trademarks and hurt its reputation.
"Ben & Jerry's is a staple of Vermont. We're old-fashioned, we're family," Ryan said.
Some examples: Ben & Jerry's ice cream Chocolate Fudge Brownie and Ben & Cherry's DVD "Chocolate Fudge Babes." Other movies include "Peanut Butter D-Cup" and "New York Fat & Chunky." Other titles are too steamy to list.
"At the end of the day you don't want your ice cream confused with pornography," said Allison Kingsley, a business professor at the University of Vermont.
But some find the humor in it and say Ben & Jerry's pushes the envelope as well.
"Ben and Jerry's is almost asking for it with flavor names like Schweddy Balls and stuff like that," said Dan Welch of Essex Junction.
Kingsley says this marketing strategy is smart for Ben and Cherry's DVDs. The controversy is driving customers to its product, but in the end, could be costly if it loses the lawsuit. The adult entertainment industry has a history of using parodies of mainstream movie titles and getting away with it.
"They've been able to continue that practice with big money in the movie industry, they may be able to continue in the ice cream world," Kingsley said.
Because it's an ongoing legal matter, Ben & Jerry's wouldn't talk with us on camera but issued us this statement: "This is a clear cut issue where the video company is imitating Ben & Jerry's logo, flavor names and trade dress to sell their products. We have taken prompt legal action to stop the manufacturing and sale of these materials."
"If even one customer thinks of Hairy Garcia when they're buying Cherry Garcia, that's probably a problem," Kingsley said.
"Vermont's Finest" fighting for its name against what the moviemaker calls "Porno's Finest."
Ben and Jerry's has taken legal action to stop the manufacturing and sale of these materials.

(Bloch & Schneider) (formerly Chrysophrys auratus or Pagurus major); SPARIDAE FAMILY; also called pink snapper, Widely distributed off the southern half of Australia, Lord Howe and Norfolk Islands, and the northern two thirds of New Zealand. To avoid confusion with snappers in the family Lutjanidae, the American Fisheries Society refers to Pagrus auratus as a squirefish. In Australia, the names cockney, red bream, squire, and snapper or pink snapper are used for progressively larger fish. The name old man snapper refers to very large individuals with a distinctive bony hump on the head and a fleshy bulge on the snout. The coloration of fresh caught snapper is generally reddish pink with a golden sheen, but color varies somewhat with habitat. Reef dwelling fish are much darker reddish brown where open water fish are a brighter pink, and snapper from soft muddy bottoms can be pale silvery pink. They inhabit a variety of habitats at all ages, and a moderate depth range as adults. They are coastal fish, commonly found from 20 100 meters but may be right at the surface or down to at least 656 ft (200 m). They reportedly attains a weight of 43 lb (19.5 kg).Fishing methods vary from surfcasting and jetty fishing to drift fishing, jigging or anchoring and using burley either presented at the surface or attached to an anchor chain. Hooks vary with the size of the fish targeted, from 4/0 for small snapper to 8/0 for real monsters. The hook must be razor sharp for the hard mouthed snapper. They are omnivorous feeders, eating nearly any kind of marine animals, making bait selection fairly easy. Pilchards, skipjack tuna, kahawai, bonito, soldier crabs, or something tough like octopus or cuttlefish work well, but the best baits (and burley) should be reasonably fresh. They are considered an excellent table fish in New Zealand and Australia
