Someone once told me.
It was just another day in the queen of hills, Mussoorie; I was drifting along the mall road when I came across a momo stand right next to the school with bottle green exteriors. That day would have been just about the awe-inspiring momos if I hadn't met him.
I don't remember much from our conversation, 1o years indeed is a long time but I do remember him whispering the following in my ears, "Someone once told me, 95% of a writer's content is never published and it is this 95% which comes directly from his heart, not from his pen"
It is now, 10 years later that I understand what he meant. Obviously, years ago I had no interest in writing or publishing a book that I would believe came right from my heart (thought I did write my first poetry almost 12 years ago).
I published my 'first writing experiment' on Amazon in 2013 (which didn't really catch any friction); I have been planning to publish my second work which I have co-authored with the gorgeous Maitri Sisodia for a long time now, the only problem we're facing is: WE DO NOT HAVE A PUBLISHER but that does not demotivate us, we understand that there are better authors and writers out there, we might be far behind in the 'race' but that's no reason not to write!
So, it doesn't matter whether what I write is categorized as the gem 5% or stacks itself in the 95% category, all that matters is that I WRITE because I love doing it.
Coming soon…An Anthology of Contemporary Cheerharan
Btw. I'm not sure but I think that 'Someone' quoted him was Ruskin Bond.
25 Before 25 | Make your own kind of Music
There's this one small thing I have to do before this Sunday ends; 3.5 years ago I wrote a list of things I wanted to achieve and experience. And it was then when I promised myself that I will be spending the next two hours reliving my experiences.
Most of my friends are aware that I have themes for each year, it's the jazzy version of a vision. My themes for previous years:
2010: #IgottaFeeling
2011: Travel
2012: Don't settle for anything less. Period
2013: Make life an offer that even life cannot refuse. Read more: 2013
2014: Attitude and Fortitude to make the impossible, nothing! Read more: 2014
These past 5 years have been an amazing journey for me; of course, there were both good times and bad times but I always felt content of who I was at the end of every year.

Clearly, my past 3 years didn't really work out as I thought they would (most of it did right?) but you know what, it's doesn't matter anymore. I perhaps did 25 things which I never thought I would do, I perhaps experienced many more awe-inspiring experiences that I could have never thought of.
I think it's amazing to plan and experience how your life unfolds (and I will soon be writing by 30 before 30) but it's also important to understand whatever happens we must learn to enjoy.
I know next five years might bring some real though times but I guess I'm ready because I have the attitude and fortitude to make any impossible, nothing
You gotta make your own kind of music ;)

What makes you feel complete? A travel journal.
Love is that distinct memory from your past that once made you feel complete.
And I have tons of those; like the one…when I was eating Butterscotch Ice cream and walking hands in hands with a girl in the middle of a basketball court of some university in Nairobi,Kenya. I ended up playing a basketball game with some really cool Kenyans :)
Or the time I drove us (on a motor bike) from District 1 to District 7 of Ho Chi Minh City at roughly 2:30 am in the night after consuming at least few liters of beers, a sheesha and few 30ml Whiskey on the rocks. Trust me, I didn't feel an inch of alcohol in me, I was rather high with the idea of falling in love with her. (Please don't drink and drive)
I can list them all but that's exactly not the point; I recently lost my travel diary of 2013, I had traveled to 7 countries last year and had documented every amazing memory in that shiny bundled bunch of paper but now it's all lost. It did make me feel a little sad but eventually I realized I have them all right here in my head and if not the head, it's in my heart.
I will start writing a new travel log diary for 2014 and I will keep blogging my stories but that won't change the fact that every legendary memory of love will be written in ink straight into the hard coded memory of my heart.
Because it was these moments when I felt complete and it's these moments I would like to think about before it all ends.
Thank you Steve Jobs; I had an awesome Sunday!
2013: 10 things I wanted to do.
A perfect way to live; create a list of things you want to do, find ways of how you wanna do it, live in sprints, reflect and consolidate the sprints by the end of the month, make a life — feeling Geeky & Reflective.
Yes that sounds like "Project Management"; it actually is.
It's called the Scrum Process (or Scrum style of Project Management or Scrum (agile) SDLC).
I think it's an apt way of living life; it's controlled yet drives you towards the infinite, it's dreamy yet you can track your achievements, it's planning your future yet living in your present. It makes you feel 'balanced' in life.
Last year on 30th December 2013 I wrote a blog post called "10 small things I want to do in 2013″
I will now begin my reflective journey and start consolidating my sprints in the year 2013. I know I have almost completed every thing I mentioned on the list of 2013 (except traveling to Vietnam – I still have 13 days to go) but the question is: Have I really lived 2013?
When will you settle down?
"Yes, travel — but just not for too long"
The question is, when is that "Too long"?
Originally posted on Inspiration through Impact:
One year after I started traveling, I was back home suffering from the classic telltales of reverse cultural shock, which no one seemed to understand and with increasing frustration (also to others) and dreams of getting on a plane as soon as possible a friend asked what I'm running away from. My mother constantly wants to know when I will "settle down" and join the "real world". A boyfriend once commented on and told me to stop running away, face my daddy issues and live life.
I'm not sure why, but there is this perception out there that anyone who travels long-term and isn't interested in settling down to be running away from something.They are just trying to "escape."
The general opinion is that traveling is something everyone should do — that gap years after college and short vacations are acceptable. But for those of us who lead nomadic lifestyles, or just linger…

What we need, want; between the dreams.
A strong knock on my room door resonated with the decibel of pain that my forehead was rejoicing. Pain; caused due to a certain phenomenon known as hangover. It was a brilliant Friday night. I have faint memories of consuming bottles of wines, encountering random people at the Clarke Quay bridge including this chubby Brit woman who was trying to seduce this Brit guy in our group and of course I remember dragging myself out of the dirty ocean line waters of East coast park.
Yes, it was a long night. All of it, worth it. Precisely, the rejoicing.
Even though it was the middle of the day, I wasn't expecting anyone to knock on my doors. I was in no state to receive the knock leave alone the responding. The intensity of knock escalated within seconds, it faded into my sleep like the Sunday night beats of Tiesto,Real hard. Someone was really desperate or really worried perhaps.
When the knock was athletic enough to actually wake me up, I struggled but finally managed to screech,"Who is it? Come in". I didn't even move my head while I screeched, for starters the head won't move because of the pain and over that, I really did not want to open my pit red eyes.
The door squeaked as I could feel someone's presence in the room. A familiar female voice quietly spoke my name as if trying to whisper in my ears.
I managed to lift my head and turn towards the source of the delicate sound that had embarked my ears, I opened my eyes to see a faint figure of a women dressed in peach, or it could be white or yellow, it was all hazy. I wasn't able to tilt my head high enough to be able to see her face but it all felt familiar, felt known. The pain was adding to the reluctance in my movements. I gave up. My head was back on the pillow and eyes shut like the doors of a gold safe with multiple locks. For a moment, I was sleeping again.
I could feel her voice, she was saying something I couldn't really decipher. As I struggled to lift my head up or open the locks, I felt a hand on the back of my neck, the hand lifted my head and positioned it on a something really serene and cozy, It was her lap; in split of a second, I knew who the person was. I can never forget the warmth and comfort of this lap, I have been resting my pain on this lap for a long time now. I felt her hand on my forehead and my pain diffused like gases in the air; within moments, I was asleep. Carefree; I felt home.
A facetime call on the ipad startled me up at around four, I woke up in an instant, I could still feel elephants pounding on my head but my lock free eyes were looking for someone or even a faint trace of that someone who had been here, but nothing, except the sandy floor nothing else was different from the last time I had woken up in that room.
It was a dream. All that knocking, I made it all up but somewhere in my heart the comfort was real.
We don't really need to be told what we really need or want, we just have to read our own hearts. We know it, perhaps all it takes is to see between the dreams ;)
Five Weeks, and I will be home; countdown begins!

An afternoon on Newbury St during Black Friday, and we managed to pick up the one thing that wasn't on sale. Figures. Luckily they were worth it - Alice Yim jersey and leather fingerless gloves. We've realized most of our Winter coats... well, aren't Winter coats i.e. this Zara cape. Insert perfect long layery badass Yim gloves, and we have a match. I guess we're also promoting whoever's graffiti that is... matches Emily's granny tresses :)

It's heart-warming when someone sees a tattered unkempt wall and thinks of us. We posted up in front of the disheveled beauty for some photos, along with cat-on-head man, and some bus goers. The streets of NYC are so entertaining.
Abigail finally got out of her ankle boots, and into some fire-hot PLVs, and Emily punked out her Edelman's with some seriously harmful spike-guards. Yes... she has accidentally kicked people.
Things that need to be addressed: the amazing "Super Karl" tee, and the ever-rad Rolling Stones cut-off... skull included is always a bonus.
Happy TEE-GIVING everyone ;)
Karl tee: Mua Mua
Black skinnies: Derek Lam
Red pumps: Pour La Victoire

Tape Magazine

Had way too much roaming Yale's campus, freaking students out, and lurking about an empty parking garage. Just a few of our favorite things to do :) Totally in lust with the amazing team at Tape Magazine, and yes, we applaud them for getting us into some bright colors, well done! However, we had to put our classic WanderLust spin on it, toss on a few spikes & crosses.
Tape is one of our new favs- androgynous editorials... need we say more? What do you guys think of the spread?!

The history behind this line is truly incredible, and worth a skim! (Trust us, we don't even like reading, besides magazines... .. picture captions.) There was so much in the collection to lust after, considering that Etienne Aigner really covers it all- shoes, bags, accessories, and clothing!!
However, we cannot get the gorgeous snake skin out of our minds, and all the metal detailing. It's all about the detail over here, #metallust.

What if we didn't know each other... how creepy would this be?? We wouldn't have a choice but to be best friends. Guess we have our love for Logan Neitzel's androgynously sexy pieces to blame.
Just realizing our friendship is pretty much just based on the color black, leather, sky-high heels, anything asymmetrical and well, dumb and dumber.. oh and probably alcohol. We've said way too much.
P.S. Logan, we'll do anything for these pieces, just saying.

Ella McHugh
There's really nothing quite like handbag press previews. We were beaming when we walked into the Ella McHugh suite at The Gansevoort Park Hotel. A gorgeous array of clutches and crossbodys lay waiting for us to test drive.
We quickly fell in lust with the sherbet colored clutch, and that white crackled-desert looking one! Some seriously badass prints and textures. Oh, and to top it all off, some bomb purse and lipstick cookies. Thanks, Ella!

Anything that resembles some sort of a ribcage is perfection to us. We hope you're just as obsessed with their intricate pieces. A completely captivating collection by Camila x Castillo.
P.S. You saw it here first, but we are finding that metallic tape. Don't know how we haven't done it before. We usually do find fashionable use for office supplies, but they had us beat with this futuristic look.

The HallowScene
(Photos by Kyle Vernor and Tom Mendes)
Welcome to The HallowScene, where Abigail mixes Wednesday Addams with a Tim Burton character, and Emily... well, Emily decides that she doesn't need to wear clothes. Regardless, it was an epic evening to say the least at The Hanky Panky Club! DJ Travisty brought his meanest tat's and tunes, while Kid Killem crushed it in costume.
Hanky Panky is the perfect place for WanderLust. Rock n' roll, tattoos (fake or real,) skulls and spikes, giant disco balls, an insane crowd, dancing (some choreographed, some impromptu.) Oh, and a whole lot of alcohol.
And if you're seeing double in the first photo... so were we.

You're sweet.
As of right now, we definitely are!
If they make an effort to talk to you, to show you they want to be here even if there lack of being on, shows they care. Sometimes people can't always be there, but if they make an effort that should count for something. We are taught all our lives to put effort into something we want or care for. I wouldn't say bet it all on them if they can't be there unless you can handle them being gone and the struggles that will come with it. If you feel like you are able to handle distance and the sacrifices, then wait for them and talk when you both can. Actions always speak louder than words. xo
Ashley Tisdale or Troian Bellasario
It's not suiting. If you know you are in the wrong own up to it. We all do things we are not proud of. I'm sure when you read this at least one thing in your life will come to mind. Did you play victim? Did you regret it? Playing the victim card will only get you so far. Sometimes we need to step back and look at the bigger picture. Own up to the wrongs we have done. Apologize and learn from it. People will believe the victim card then when they find out, then you really will be a victim. If you own up to what you have done. You will have more respect at the end of the day from others and more importantly yourself.
Have a question or need advice, send it in. xo
Thank you, that means a lot. xo
Send it in. xo

The Round Cairn, Grey Cairns of Camster, Caithness
The two Grey Cairns of Camster (The Round and Long Cairns) are among the oldest stone monuments in Scotland. They were built over 5,000 years ago. Even before their excavation and restoration by Historic Scotland in the later 20th century they were two of the best preserved burial tombs surviving from the neolithic period anywhere in Britain. Their location – on a windswept moor in the heart of the Caithness 'Flow Country' – probably ensured their survival from the ravages of later farmers. But before the deep blanket of peat covered Caithness during the Bronze Age, this corner of the British Isles was good farming land. The two great mounds were where some of those farmers were laid to rest.
The Round Cairn is the smaller of the two, measuring 18m in diameter and rising to a height of 4m. A low, narrow doorway leads from a curving forecourt along a cramped passage into the burial chamber at its centre. The chamber itself is surprisingly roomy. Inside, you can stand to full height and admire the structural sophistication of those neolithic builders. Pairs of large upright slabs divide the chamber into three distinct compartments, and the walls are cleverly corbelled on the inside to support the roof.

After a disappointing 2010 Olympics, in which the finished in fifth place, Team Sweden is back and looking to win a medal. It is also the first time since 1994 that the team will not include former Red Wings captain Nicklas Lidstrom, as he retired following the 2011-12 season. Here is the full 25 man roster, which includes 5 Red Wings:
Daniel Alfredsson, Nicklas Backstrom, Patrik Berglund, Loui Eriksson, Johan Franzen, Carl Hagelin, Marcus Kruger, Gabriel Landeskog, Daniel Sedin, Herik Sedin, Jakob Silfverberg, Alex Steen, Henrik Zetterberg, and Jimmie Ericsson from the SHL.
Alex Edler, Oliver Ekman-Larsson, Jonathan Ericsson, Nicklas Hjalmarsson, Erik Karlsson, Nicklas Kronwall, Johnny Odouya, and Henrik Tallinder.
Henrik Lundqvist, Jonas Gustavsson, and Jonas Enroth
Of these players, 13 have never been to the Olympics. With this roster, Sweden has decided to go in a completely different direction than they have in the past by choosing young players over many of the veteran Swedes in the NHL. Here are the players I believe were snubbed:
Marcus Johansson, Patric Hornqvist, and Carl Soderberg
Victor Hedman, Tobias Enstrom, and Carl Gunarsson
Sweden has been plagued by injuries to star players like Loui Eriksson, and by shoddy play from their starting goalie Henrik Lundqvist. Eriksson has only played 24 games this year, scoring only 5 goals and 14 points in that time. Marcus Johansson has played in all 42 games this year, skating on the top line in Washington with fellow Swede Nicklas Backstrom and Alex Ovechkin. Johansson is speedy and has been consistent this year, and already has chemistry with Backstrom. For me, it makes more sense to bring him to Sochi than it does to bring Eriksson, even though Eriksson has been a lock for team Sweden for years. Jakob Silfverberg is another selection I disagree with. Silfverberg has also struggled with injury, and when he is in the lineup for the Anaheim Ducks he hasn't been impressive, scoring only 5 goals and 11 points in the 21 games he's suited up for. Patric Hornqvist is 27 years old and played for Sweden in the last Olympics, at which time Jakob Silfverberg had yet to skate on a North American rink. Hornqvist has been a consistent 20-goal scorer for the Nashville Predators throughout his career. Carl Soderberg is only in his second NHL season, but I still believe he beats out Marcus Kruger for the fourth-line center role. Soderberg plays for the Boston Bruins, where he has been a penalty kill specialist and one of the teams best two-way forwards this year.
Victor Hedman was the third overall pick in the 2009 entry draft by the Tampa Bay Lightning. Since then, he's been playing top pairing minutes and he is now starting to put up points as well as being sound in his own end. Hedman is 3rd in scoring among swedish defensemen and I believe that he is just as good as if not better than Henrik Tallinder. Tobias Enstrom was also on the 2010 Olympic roster and has continued to develop his game offensively, so much so that I belive he would be a better roster choice than Jonny Odouya. Carl Gunarsson plays on the Toronto Maple Leaf's top defensive pairing with Dion Phaneuf, and has become an excellent two-way defender for them over the past few years. I don't see how Jonathan Ericsson is any better than him.
Robin Lehner is a young backup goaltender for the Ottawa Senators and has the potential to one day be an elite goalie in this league. Lehner is 1st in Save % amongst Swedish Goalies in the league, with a SV% of .922%.He is 4th in Goals Against Average with a GAA of 2.68. Jonas Enroth's GAA is 2.60. I believe that Lehner already is a better goalie the Enroth, and having him play in the Olympics now will give him some experience for the upcoming Olympics, when he will eventually take over as Sweden's starting goalie.

Amazon's Q1 2013 Results Show A Fall In Profits, Despite A Rise In Sales
Shares rose yesterday, around 2%.
Amazon released the financial results from the first quarter of 2013 Thursday, and showed a fall in profits, despite a rise in sales.
The firm brought in $16.07 billion in revenue, earning 18 cents per share. Sales increased, year-on-year, by 22%. Operating income was down by 6%, and its net income was down by 37%, from $130 million to $82 million. All this can only mean one thing. Amazon is spending big on something--but what?
According to the New York Times, Amazon is spending its money on distribution centers--here's one you might have seen earlier--while avoiding paying tax in some territories.
But it seems an odd thing to spend money on when you remember just how much of Amazon's sales come from data--music, e-books, movies and such--Amazon's e-book business grew by 70% last year. It is busy growing its own content arm, and there are reports that there's an Apple TV rival in the Amazon pipeline.
Amazon's profit margin is just 0.51%--compare and contrast it with that of Apple, which is 37.5% (down by 10% from a year ago). Despite the huge difference in profits, shareholders are still keener on Jeff Bezos' firm than the iconic gadget maker-turned-digital seer.

Mary Jean Pearle and John Battaglia's marriage seemed picture perfect from the outside. With their two young daughters, Faith and Liberty, they made their home in a wealthy Dallas suburb. John was handsome, charming, and successful--but behind his mask of normality lay a vicious, violent abuser who'd brutally beaten his first wife--and who made Mary Jean the new target of his irrational rages. After nine hellish years, she divorced Battaglia.
On Christmas Day, 1999, during a court-ordered family visit, he attacked her in front of their daughters. For the next two years, he threatened, harassed and stalked her. Mary Jean feared for her life, but not for the lives of the children, with whom Battaglia was never anything less than caring, loving, and gentle.
But in spring, 2001, when Faith and Liberty were visiting their father, Mary Jean received a message to call her daughters. Helpless, horrified, she heard her older daughter's pleading cries. Then came the sound of gunshots--followed by silence. What evil impulses had driven a seemingly devoted father the ultimate act of violence and betrayal. . .and how would justice be served?

1367 Tasting Notes
I needed this simple green tea to keep me steady and calm my nerves. For those who have been following the saga of the Mun stranded Kerbals – great news! I designed a remote control ship and land within inches of one of my two stranded vessels. The three trapped aboard the ship did an EVA into the new ship and as we speak the ship is returning to Kerbin. If the chute deploys and we don't disintegrate on reentry – both real possibilities, Jebediah and crew will once again be flying misions. If all goes well tomorrow I rescue the other stranded crew.
Not having the original packaging, I wasn't sure how to steep this as it has both white and black teas in it. A quick web search and off we go with boiling water and a 3 minute steep. My quick search led me to Lord Devotea's blog. If you aren't already reading it, you should. A lot of wit and occasional insight :D So anyway, I learned they grow their own oranges and lavender. Back to this tea. The aroma is much as expected from the list of ingredients but on lighter side. The taste made me reread the ingredients. My first thought was light cinnamon and light pepperiness. That is what my brain translated from my first big swig. Going back and sipping slowly I first encounter natural bergamot morphing quickly into orange. Late in the sip it changes to light lavender. I mention light because I find lavender to usually be overwhelming. It fits very nicely here. The more the cup cools the more I taste the base especially in the aftertaste. This truly is well balanced and quite different from anything I have had before. There is enough depth for those who want it and there is simple relaxation for those who need it. I did add sweetener because that is how I roll.
I love lavender in my garden, my bath, my pillow, but generally not in food or tea. My experiment with Herbs de Province yielded a meal that was almost unpalatable for me. Likewise with most uses in tea, however, this one was not undrinkable, & I've grown to enjoy orange more. I agree that the bergamot & lavender were light enough to get by. Of course, in my case I don't think I actually drank a cup of it. I made a cup for Tony, who loves such things, & took a few sips. He really enjoyed this one, as I recall. And like you, K, he rolls with a little sugar (german rock or honey)
Lovely! And thanks for the bit about the blog. I'm about to do seven posts in seven days from Thursday. All of them very silly!
Robert Godden as much as I enjoy your humor, I also must applaud you on the serious East Indies piece. The history of tea interests me – even the dark side that people often don't want to think about.
What the heck is Yabao? I had to look it up. First impression of the wet leaf smell was cat pee. It is probably really more of a kiwi smell. This has nowhere to go but up! The first sip was rose and a spicy almost metallic note. I added sweetener (sorry, I know it is Verdant) Now it is jasmine and honeysuckle with a hint of vanilla. I taste marigold very quickly at the beginning of each sip. I glanced through others notes and see this is well loved. I am not drawn to it. I would drink it if offered. I bet it would be great iced while rocking on a front porch swing.
More amusing is it didn't stop me from trying it. Once you have sipped cheap puer anything is possible.
My rule has always been to try a sip of every tea plain and then sweeten it to check that transformation (because so many people sweeten tea) then add cream (not to oolong or some greens and whites). Yabao is a unique flavor. Seems that you either strongly love it or hate it. I love it. It's a bit finicky with sweetening sometimes. I prefer real sugar or honey…because my usual splenda seems to sour the yabao.
Bonnie I have a plain yabao from Terri that I am anxious to try. From this potpourri mix I am really still not sure what the yabao tastes like. It is buds prepared like white tea but some consider it a puer. I like both of those. I agree I try to taste it first au natural then do my thing to see the change. I think with this one about half what I normally use would have been the correct happy medium. It was a little too sweet my way and the rose was only in the aftertaste.
It's interesting to drink a cup of this once in awhile, & same with the plain yabao. Neither one is really all that appealing to me, just a nice occasional contrast from my usual choices. I've never tried either one sweetened.
This is my first Verdant tea ever. I feel there is so much pressure associated with it – like a movie everyone is crazy about – that it makes me uncomfortable. It can't possibly live up to the hype.
I used my press and 175 F water being careful not to pour the water directly over the crinkly leaf. I wish I had added the leaf after the water for more of a dance. The wet leaf has a very strong aroma of artichoke/stew beef. The liquor is very clear and yellow.
The first cup is really creamy and tastes like Cheerios. There is a bite late in the sip that reminds me of Dragonwell. The aftertaste is really sweet and lingers. As nice as this already tastes, I was intrigued even more by the cup as it cooled. It takes on notes of creamed corn.
Cups two and three lose the creamy oats and replace it with a more green (not grassy) cup with a light but good metallic bitterness. That doesn't sound tasty but it is. The aftertaste remains very sweet.
A very good tea indeed!
Terri I did the Devotea earl grey yesterday if you missed it. Pressure is off now, I'm ready to dig in!
First off, thank you Terri Harplady for swapping with me. It is my suspicion Ms Theresa was out of the room while little Terri stuffed the box. My lands Terri you doubled the number of teas I have. I won't tell Ms Theresa if you don't.
I started sorting the box to decide which teas to drink first. My plan was to begin the assault with green teas as I think they age quickest. But then, I spotted an Earl Grey and all reason went out the window. Must drink Earl Grey.
This is a nice one. The level of bergamot is about the same intensity as Twinings but since this uses actual oil of bergamot it is far more complex and less biting. The base tea is extremely smooth when hot. As it cools it picks up some briskness and a little drying. A satisfying cup for Earl Grey enthusiasts and Star Ship Captains everywhere.
Earl Grey hot. Make it so Number One. Engage. Sorry, I'll stop now. Live long and prosper.
Don't you love ooh-look-what's-in-the-mail days? Wrong series, I know, but you've got me craving Deep Space Nine. I have a thing for Odo.
Yes, love good mail days! I used to watch DS9 all the time. Quark amused me. I thought DS9 was far better than TNG. I liked Picard but in general I thought TNG tried to hard to be bigger and better.
When TNG did the simple relationship shows I enjoyed them – one of my favorites being when Picard returned to earth to visit his brother on his orchard. They were living the simple life free of technology but they still used all kinds of gadgets we can only imagine.
As enjoyable as this discussion is – I'm an original cast Star Trek fan myself – on behalf of the Devotea, can we engage warp speed to the next tasting note? We can't wait to hear what you think!
I have no idea how old this is but I suspect several years. It was given to me. Steeped in a small cup to see if it survived. At first I thought it was too far gone but as it cooled the peppermint came through nicely. Really not getting the spearmint but I prefer it that way. The rosehips and hibiscus give the cup color and only the slightest touch of tart. It would be interesting to know how this tastes fresh. I probably would not buy a box but will definitely finish this one.
I have had this tea last year in fact. It is a minty tea but not overly minted and I would not have a full box of it; mine was part of their assorted tea packs.
I am not reviewing of teas these days. Not much doing with tea. There will be no book by me on tea. No need since I am simply not good enough. I continue to be bothered by things. I feel bullied but it is imagined since a 13 years old and their mother would not do this. At times tea land feels a little like 'Hitler land' and I mean no disrespect to those who suffered.
I received this book: And the Pursuit of Happiness by Maira Kalman and I have gotten emails notice several time with new Steepster folks who can be asked anything and will have answer. Their company is in Pursuit of Tea; Anna and Sebastian. I wish them well. It was this email that prompted me to visit here now.
My illness is the way that I connect things together when others see not a connection or specifically so what if seeming familiar.
I gave up a lot and it has been all for nothing. No one asked that I give up lots. The tea book was all my idea as I am unemployed and keeping busy. I have allowed others to get the better of me or to top me since this is the personality that I am surrounded with. I cannot do this. I keep a blog as this does not sustain me either. I a joke; ridicule daily by folks around me. This is wrong.
I played at writing and failed but why have seeming actors with names similar to stories around me and yet not. They are employed and I am not.
I am not saying anything as usual. Happy New Year; for me it is same old in 2014.
I exist on Ramen Noodles and I've only realized that I am having chicken not shrimp; took this long to notice the change since I don't read.
I trust that I have lost everyone.
seule771: Thank you for sharing yourself with us, here.
I myself only work part-time, and as such must live a very simple life.
Tea one of many low-cost ways to enjoy the simple pleasures of life, is it not?
seule771—do stay connected with us here. I have always enjoyed your very thoughtful reviews!
As to this tea—good ol' Bigelow just doesn't put out anything that's not a good pantry staple. Their Plantation Mint is the caffeinated counterpart to this one and is nicely balanced, too.
Seule771 – I do apologize I missed your comment here. I have followed your reviews for a long time and have always been intrigued by the brands you find. I have not heard of most of them. Do keep bringing them to us.
SimpliciTEA – hey I haven't seen a comment for a very long time either. I have also missed your reviews.
Gmathis – I agree, Bigelow has always been one I feel comfortable bringing home.
hehe I forget to log and when I do, you definitely don't get anything more complicated from me than a simple yum or yuck. I leave the detailed reviews to those who speak tastebuds or tongue. I can't do either. I can speak dog fluently and a little cat though. You should always post what you feel/think/taste or whatever comes to mind when drinking tea. I do the same thing on goodreads I can tell you when I like a book or not but I can't do the full reviews some people do. I mostly like reading other people's posts and try to keep track of my teas and how much I'm drinking :D
I can't believe how long I have managed to nurse this ounce of tea along. I even sent a small sample out once long ago. I still have enough for one more round. I originally got this because it is historically considered the tea thrown overboard in the Boston harbor. Then I learned Bohea is a mistranslation of Wuyi. I think of Wuyi as a dark roasted oolong which this is not. Then I learned that Wuyi is an area in the Fujian province. Fujian black tea is one of my favorite teas, so this makes some sense. The description says this is the original lapsang. It is lighter in smoke than modern LS. It is obvious but not in the scary way. It is very sweet. The base comes through strong with honey and caramel notes of a solid Fujian. I now remember why I am so protective of this – it is wonderfully delicious.
Finished the last of this one. I enjoyed it but won't really miss it. Why does it get a 92? It is good for what it is, I just prefer less intense flavoring. Definitely not a subtle coconut almond tea.
Anna – this is for you. I don't have a keemun so I opted for Moscow Nights from Empire Tea Services combined with Creamy Earl Grey from Zenjala. MN is a smoky LS with a touch of bergamot. CEG is EG with vanilla. Close as I can come this morning to rocket fuel and toasted Kerbals.
Both teas are sipdowns so there are no do overs, just like hitting Mun at 500m/s because you ran out of fuel – again. I love the smell of toasty Kerbals in the morning.
Just thinking a Genmaicha Earl Grey might work even better and if it had just a touch of mallow to give that squishy tiny brain feel. Mmmm Mmmm.
Ahah! Agreed gmatis! But steepster being a top notch learning institution, I now know what a Kerbal is…definitely not cereal…though they do seem crunchy. KS, have you tried eating one yet???
After just reading TheTeaFairy's painful and chaotic start to the day mine is far less dramatic. I woke up this morning around 6:00 and I could taste dragonwell. I love when the mind does that and you just know what tea you are starting with this day. Got up went to the den and thought I should start with milk and toast. I often do this and immediately follow up with tea. Got sidetracked stranding 3 more kerbals on Mun. I didn't kill them at least. I landed gently but the ship fell over as I hadn't stopped all the lateral thrust. Honestly I didn't have enough fuel to get them home anyway. Don't tell them. They are still smiling thinking a rescue mission is in the works. Silly deluded guys. So at 8:00 as I was about to finally get tea, my wife asked me to take her to the doctor. Nothing serious. She is dizzy and congested like half the people we know. Get out of the doctor, go to the pharmacy, then grab a sandwich to take home from Arby's. Finally, I am home and go to make tea only to realize my press is too grungy to use. Give it a much needed scrubbing and having my first tea of the day at 2:00 in the afternoon. You know what? It was worth the wait. So very good.
At the beginning, I was gonna say I envied your peaceful morning, but as I went on…Well lets say If I hadn't read your previous note explaining what this game is, I would have find a wide variety of reasons to think you are good for the loony bin…If you read this note in a context, NOT knowing it's a game, it's pretty hilarious!
Hope the wife is ok…
I'm laughing so very hard right now. We need a fan tea. Doesn't Mun Kerbal Keemun sounds like a great tea? Totally legit.
(And I wish your wife a speedy recovery.)
TheTeaFairy, I'm beginning to realize it is less a game and more a nerd obsession, but can the loony bin be that far off?
Anna, I like the way you think. I think I am all out of Keemun. I'm not sure what I have that smells of burning rocket fuel and toasted Kerbals. :)

Think About It…… October 8, 2013
The government "slim down" has sadly become a cynical political pawn in the hands of Obama and his cohorts. Team Obama is doing everything in its power to make Americans "feel" the hurt…..to feel the full impact of the shutdown. Consider this:
They have closed the Washington Zoo…..all National Parks have been closed and many more government controlled places that the people enjoy. The Miami Hearld said the Park Service went so far as to close 1,100 square miles of ocean off of the coast of Florida due to the government shutdown. The paper called this a "prime fishing" area that will be closed "until further notice".
Government officials even attempted to barricade the parking lot of Mount Vernon before the barricades were removed because George Washington's home is privately run. Team Obama took the Amber Alert website off line because of the government "shut down".
The fact is, President Obama, Harry Reid and the Democrats will do anything in their power to ensure that nothing stands in the way of ObamaCare. They prefer a government shutdown over any discussion or compromise on ObamaCare. Our President will not even consider giving you and me, at the very least, the same one year delay in implementation of the individual mandate that they have already given to Unions and Businesses, with over 50 employees.
Many people in the know have exposed ObamaCare as an economic catastrophe and an ominous threat to our fundamental liberties. But not our own Democratic Senator Mark Begich.
Senator Mark Begich is not working for you. Instead, he is working with Senator Harry Reid and Obama to save ObamaCare at any cost. Even if it means continuing the government shut down.
Senator Mark Begich needs a call from you. Call or email him today and tell him that you want the shutdown to end with his vote to defund ObamaCare.
Again, if the Democrats, including Obama, Reid and Begich have their way, they will succeed in
blaming" the government "shut down" on Republicans and avoid all together the real issue which is ObamaCare and the unacceptable $17 trillion in debt, which we, our children and grand-children will face as it brings our great country to its knees.

Quorn is going vegan! So reports VegNews. Quorn's freaky, fungus-based faux-chicken patties were some of my favorite back when I ate eggs—really moist and different. Though it totally creeped me out to put eggs in fake chicken.
Props to Compassion Over Killing which helped prompt the new offering (I think they'll still make their non-vegan ones too)!
Anyway, the vegan burger should hit over 1,000 stores nationwide next year. Let us know if you see them!

Make it: the famous Farmhouse veggie burger, VEGANIZED! »
I love veggie burgers personally and professionally, so when I say this is the best veggie burger I've ever had, you better believe this veganized Farmhouse veggie burger is the best veggie burger you've never eaten. Unfortunately, the original recipe isn't vegan, but with one small substitute, it can be yours! And that one substitute is Daiya cheddar (or any shredded vegan cheese, but Daiya is comes shredded and I'm already working for this burger, you know? Why the extra work?). Then, just follow the recipe as is and BAM, PERFECT VEGAN VEGGIE BURGER. Well, I've never actually MADE the burger (details!) but the friends who made them and invited me over said that they did just as the recipe said, subbed Daiya, and roasted the cubed eggplant at 400 F for about 20 to 25 minutes with olive oil sprayed on it, because sauteing takes longer and we gots to eat!
Seriously, make these, and serve them to your friends and family on crusty rolls with Wildwood's garlic aioli, roasted red peppers, and caramelized onions. OR just eat it straight out of the pan, which is what I did. And then I deglazed the pan and ate that with a spoon because I'm the grossest. YOU'RE WELCOME!
Incidentally, I played Bananagrams for the first time last night. What fun! I need more of that in my life; we all do. Life is short, there's no such thing as too many veggie burgers and too much Bananagrams. PEEL!
[Note: I did not take this photo, but your burger will look something like that. If it doesn't, you really fucked up.]

You've got lunch plans: veggie burger power hour! »
Our own Laura has taken over the reigns of Eater SF's Burger Week and she's turned it veggie for the day! Enter the Veggie Burger Power Hour! At 11 a.m. Pacific/2 p.m. Eastern, get a veggie burger for lunch and tell the world! When you get your veggie burger, tweet about it with the hashtag #vegburgerarmy! Laura says, "If you can add a picture, that's major bonus points! I'll be posting or re-tweeting the most delicious, so your brilliant lunch will be admired by many." OMG you could be Twitter-famous!
For you SF folk, you have extra time! Laura is holding the Power "Hour" from noon to 2 p.m. Same deal: tweet it with the #vegburgerarmy hashtag!
Laura says, if you don't make it out for a veggie burger today, "I'd still like to hear your votes for best veggie burger in San Francisco (or around the country, she can pass them on to the National folks!) for possible highlight on the site. Just email them into me here with 'Veggie Burgers!' in the subject header. If your favorites make the cut, you'll see your burger (and name!) in lights. Woo!" Wow, Laura sounds so pro on Eater! And by "pro" I mean SQUARE. [Ed.: Truth!]

Top 10 links of the week! »
RIP Knut. Knut the polar bear died this week and it's very sad. But don't worry! He's going to be stuffed and mounted! Vegetarian Star has the details.
New York is crazy for veggie burgers! The New York Times is totally in love with veggie burgers this week. I'm like, way to be late to the party! But welcome all the same.
Laura busts heads. If you didn't read our Laura's response to that lame Ecosalon piece, read Luara's response to that lame Ecosalon piece.
Laura plays nice. AOL City's Best interviewed our own Laura! She's blowing up. I'm not the least bit jealous—her coattails suit me just fine! You go, girl.
Tsunami dolphin saved. There have been some bittersweet animals stories coming out of Japan, not the least of which is the rescue of a little baby dolphin in a rice field. There is a picture on the other end of this link, boy is there a picture.
Breast milk from cows. Um, in China, they are totally creating cows that produce human milk. I'm sure they are treating the cows really great too. People seem grossed out but how is it any grosser than drinking regular cow milk? I ask you. Both come out of cow nipples.
Saber-toothed vegetarian? Everyone is so excited about this new discovery: a saber-toothed vegetarian monster! (Monster is the scientific term).
More oil, more problems. Nightingale island, home to half the world's population of northern rockhopper penguins, is covered in oil. People are working to save the cute, funny-haired penguins but there is a lack of supplies and help on the remote island. This is a bummer. I don't think I'm getting a joke out of this.

» Does your veggie burger contain trace amounts of hexane residue? Do you care?
Today's health scare story floating around the tubes is about the use of hexane to process isolated soy protein, a common ingredient in non-organic veggie burgers. Even though this is old-ish "news," it's one of those zombie stories that keeps resurfacing every six-to-nine months as "THE REAL STORY" about the dangers of soy, which means that vegans are, once again, wrong about everything/lying to ourselves/the real killers because once a field mouse wandered into a tractor harvesting soybeans.
If you're eating organic soy, this story has nothing to do with you. And if you're eating unprocessed, unpackaged food that you cook yourself or leave to cooks who care about fresh ingredients, this story still has nothing to do with you. If you're eating packaged food manufactured by giant corporations, well, you get what you pay for.
But despite all the dire warnings in the Cornucopia report about hexane explosions, there's a curious lack of any statistics about any actual deaths or disease caused by trace amounts of hexane in non-organic veggie burgers or soy baby formula. Which means that the number, as far as we know, is zero.
To be fair, the report is only calling for an FDA investigation into whether or not hexane residue is dangerous. And go for it; food safety is important. But the real agenda here is to cast soy as dangerous—maybe even explosive!—by innuendo, while glossing over the toxic waste dump of meat and dairy and the raging epidemic of death and disease caused by their overconsumption. But the public always loves a "this thing we thought was good is actually bad!" story, so expect to see this one reposted on your Facebook wall about 12 times by your smug-omnivore distant cousins.
[Correction: The post originally stated that the Cornucopia Institute is funded by the Weston A. Price Foundation, a pro-meat-and-dairy think-tank. While Cornucopia and WAPF share resources, and Cornucopia's founder has ties to WAPF and to the organic dairy industry, we were unable to verify a financial connection between the two organizations.]

text: Sounds like you had a great time cooking. I totally agree about the meat thermometer... just be sure you know the proper temps for specific meats. Generally, I think the 160-180 degree range isconsidered safe to eat (160 being medium-rare). When I do a whole pig I do it to at least 160 degrees, and still have some rare spots close to the spit bar, and we end up having to cook them seperately... often in the basting sauce (grin). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Meisterin Katarina Helene von Schönborn, OL Shire of Narrental (Peru, Indiana) http://narrental.home.comcast.net Middle Kingdom http://meisterin.katarina.home.comcast.net "A room without books is like a body without a soul." -- Cicero "The danger in life is not that we aim too high and miss. The problem is that we aim too low and hit the mark." -- Michaelangelo ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ----- Original Message ---- From: April Page Once the proper equipment is in place, think of the open fire as a stove top. Countess Regina and I cooked the soups, stews and vegetables on grates thrown over the fire pits, monitoring them as they cooked and moving the coals around as necessary. The sausages were skewered (Regina's choice, not mine) and roasted on a grate as well. As for recipes, the dishes were thrown together using what meats, vegetables and spices we had on hand and a basic menu that Her Excellency had in her head. The chickens were the only thing not cooked over open fire. We cheated and hid a smoker in the back of the camp! ;) Lastly, if you plan on roasting meat on spits, invest in a good meat thermometer. It might not be period, but it's better to know that the meat is done rather than give the entire camp food poisoning.

In the new issue of NFPA Journal®, President Jim Shannon said the Association will focus on the leading causes of home fires, including cooking. "We also need to continue to push hard for home fire sprinklers. That's still a large priority for NFPA, and we plan to work very aggressively in 2014 on our residential sprinkler initiative," he said.

A series of fire tests were conducted to characterize the potential hazard from ignition of an upholstered chair. The particular chair was selected as part of a fire investigation being conducted by the U.S. Department of Treasury's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms.
Heat release rate was determined as a function of time from ignition using the oxygen depletion principle. Two tests were conducted with the chairs placed in the open under large calorimeters.
The third test was conducted with the chair located in a room. Peak heat release rates obtained during the tests ranged from approximately 1 MW to 2.5 MW.

NFPA 921, Guide for Fire and Explosion Investigations plays a fundamental role in fire and explosion investigations. A new edition of NFPA 921 is scheduled to be published in 2014. For years, this document has played a critical role in the training, education and job performance of fire and explosion investigators. It also serves as one of the primary references used by the National Fire Academy to support its fire/arson-related training and education programs. It is imperative that investigators understand the scope, purpose and application of this document, especially since it will be used to judge the quality and thoroughness of their investigations.
SAN DIEGO - A Team 10 and Scripps News investigation found arson fires are not investigated properly in many American cities -- including San Diego -- due to a chaotic patchwork of reporting systems and standards.
Many deliberately set building fires are not reported to the federal government.
Nationally, just 5 percent of all residential building fires are intentionally set, according to the National Fire Incident Reporting System, which is part of the Department of Homeland Security. Data collected by Scripps News suggests the national arson rate to be significantly higher.

Jim Humble, the inventor of Miracle Mineral Solution, is not a happy man. Apparently Emily Willingham of the Thinking Person's Guide to Autism took it upon herself to say that chlorine dioxide is bleach.
This would not normally qualify as even remotely controversial, but the problem is, you see, that according to Humble, Miracle Mineral Solution (a 28% sodium chlorite solution), when mixed with citric acid, does not in fact form the bleach kind of chlorine dioxide, but instead forms something different which cures cancer, AIDS, malaria, autism and presumably also the common cold.
In fact, there is no credible evidence that MMS cures anything at all, other than Jim Humble's overdraft, but as with most quack remedies the lack of evidence is taken as evidence that they don't want you to know about it because they don't make money out of it so they want to suppress it. Because, after all, what doctors, drug companies, health regulators, charities, patient groups and scientists care about most is making money, not curing sick people.
Which is why so many health regulators have warned people off (e.g. FDA, Health Canada, Food Standards Agency (UK)).
Now, obviously, in order to silence this dissent Humble can only go one of two ways: either he needs to publish robust peer-reviewed science to back his claims, or he needs to issue threats. The latter is the route of choice for quacks and chalrlatans, and Humble insists he is not a quack or a charlatan, so of course he's going with the former.
Oh, wait, no he's not. He's started a petition on change.org: "Emily Willingham to stop telling people MMS is bleach".
Now, you might think that MMS is dangerous, fraudulent quackery, and that calling it bleach just because it is made of the same chemical as bleach is, in fact, perfectly legitimate. You may feel that the petition is an abuse of change.org's services then you might choose to flag it as inappropriate.
One Response to "MMS. It's bleach. No, really, it is."
MMS has killed people. However, the people have usually been adults and it's described as whatever they officially died from (i.e., extreme dehydration from the vomiting and diarrhea it caused, etc.). Alternative medicine lovers have been assured repeatedly that "herxheimer reactions" are a "good sign" because it means that toxins, viruses, etc., are "dying off," so many don't do the rational thing when they start getting so sick (and quit using it). Instead, they keep "doing the protocol," making themselves sicker and sicker.
It is what prompted the FDA warning about it – how dangerous it is – but many alternative med users suffer from "true believerism" – any warnings from government are only meant to keep them from the truth – the government would never warn them about something because it is hazardous to their health (like cigarettes?).
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

A few years ago, I was taking a cab from 58th Street to La Guardia Airport. We cut through Central Park and, just before reaching Fifth Avenue, we hit a slight traffic jam. My driver immediately picked up his phone and, I assumed, was alerting a friend about the backup.
As we proceeded east and then north the driver gave numerous updates of, I assumed, traffic conditions to his friend. Once again, I could only understand the names of the streets in the "reports."
Finally, somewhere in the 90s we stopped at a red light. My driver rolled down his passenger-side window and honked his horn. The cabby next to us also rolled down his window. My driver expertly lobbed a small, but full, paper bag into the lap of the other driver. It was a lunch he had picked up for his friend.
Turns out all of the calls were to tell where we were, so his friend could catch up with us and retrieve the precious cargo. That was truly a lunch "to go."

|The Bombings and the Claims of Citizenship
|By Hadley Arkes
|Tuesday, 23 April 2013
On July 10, 1858, Abraham Lincoln was speaking in Chicago, as he was launching his campaign for the U.S. Senate. Just a few days earlier there had been a celebration for the 4th of July, and Lincoln noted that many people gathered there to celebrate had not really been descended from families who had been here at the time of the Revolution.
They were newcomers. As Lincoln said, they had, "come from Europe – German, Irish, French, and Scandinavian. . .settled here, finding themselves our equals in all things." He continued:
As Harry Jaffa observed, this was a kind of democratic "transubstantiation." If these people grasped that central principle, to be shared as the common faith, they were "flesh of the flesh, blood of the blood" of the men who had made that revolution. If they understood that "proposition," as Lincoln called it, "all men are created equal," they understood the equal rights of all of those around them, for they grasped the moral ground of those rights. And if they grasped those things, they grasped the core of what they needed to know in order to be a good "citizen" of this place.
The late Fr. Richard Neuhaus once did a seminal essay, "Can an Atheist Be a Good Citizen?" If what we mean by a "citizen" is a man who pays his taxes and obeys the laws, the answer was a ready "yes." But that was a scaled down definition of what it meant to be a citizen.
The deeper question was whether the atheist could give a moral defense of that regime that commanded his deep respect and loyalty. And yet that demand has been waived as we have moved away from any sense of the moral requirements of citizenship, because we have receded from the sense of the moral character of the polity itself.
In the age of relativism we have been backing into the notion of the polity as a hotel. It is a place of residence; people check in and out; and the main requirement is to pay the bill (i.e., the taxes) and obey the house rules. But we are not prepared to respond to a call to military service from the Waldorf Astoria.
I raise this matter now in the wake of the recent bombings in Boston carried out by two young brothers, one a naturalized "citizen," and the controversy arising weeks earlier over Americans who had joined the terrorists. Did they deserve a constitutional protection that is not accorded to terrorists who do not happen to be citizens?
The raising of the question marked a dim echo of an earlier time, when the notion of citizenship was taken to mean far more than it does now. It was assumed to mark people who had cultivated a deep attachment to the country, perhaps people who had come from abroad, and made a formal adherence to the American regime, for compelling reasons.
Some of them would have borne obligations to the country, even to the point of risking their lives in its defense. It is one of the ironies here that people drawn to this country from abroad often have a more vivid sense of what this country is about than many people who have been born and raised here. Dzhokhar Tsarnaev became radically disaffected, but America has also known its homegrown traitors willing to deliver to our most lethal enemies the means of killing other Americans on a grand scale.
In the late 1970s, the Supreme Court took up the case of New York State providing a rich menu of subsidized higher education, but wishing to reserve the subsidies for students who were – or were intending to become – citizens of the United States. The Court struck down that policy as an invidious discrimination. And yet, what was so inapt about asking students of mature years about the regime that finally elicited their deepest attachment?
Did it matter that the people of New York were funding students of engineering, in the 1930s, who would return to Germany and the service of Hitler? Or in later years, Iraqis putting their skills in the service of Saddam Hussein? The decision of the Court made sense, again, mainly if one supposed that "citizenship" no longer bore anything of moral significance.
Welcome, then, to the America of our time, arguing now over immigration, but no longer clear that we are inviting people to a regime, or a way of life, that can decently ask for their respect.

Prêt-à-Pumpkin: Designer Custom-made Jack-o'-Lanterns
Hurricane Sandy may have derailed plans for Halloween festivities on the East Coast, but there's much to celebrate in the wonderfully inventive carved pumpkins commissioned by Vogue.com.
Philadelphia, PA
©Cait Elizabeth—
This past weekend I got the opportunity to work with public relations agency, Creative Sevag, at a fashion show called Style Wars. All proceeds went to Adopt A Pig Foundation. I got to be a part of all the craziness, stress, and beauty of the entire show and loved every minute of it. I was finally in my element. Oh, and I got the opportunity to meet great local fashion icons like Dallas Shaw and Jimmy Contreras!

According to GQ, you can always judge a man by his shoes. For example, if he is wearing a savvy suit paired with cheap, scuffed-up dress shoes. Forget it. If you do not know that is a complete don't in the fashion world. The more that I think about it I have to agree with this statement 100 percent. Looking back there has been very few times where I couldn't judge or gather information from a man's pair of shoes. Speaking of, I am writing this post in Temple University's on-campus coffee shop where I just spotted a college student in line wearing a pair of navy converse that look extra crisp and clean. This could either say he has quite a shoe collection like Carrie Bradshaw, or he just bought a brand new pair of shoes. A couple people behind him stands a middle age man. He is wearing a sport jacket very well with slacks, and sleek boat shoes. This could say he is a professor on campus who seems to be a pretty laid back guy (with a good sense of style, of course). Anyway, the bottom line is GQ has a great point. You can always judge a man by his shoes.

Why Stay At Ravella
This lakefront resort, 17 miles east of the Las Vegas Strip, is an unexpected oasis, with Tuscan-inspired architecture, an enormous swimming pool, and a white-sand beach, all in the heart of Nevada's Mojave Desert.
The Scoop
The Venetian, on the Las Vegas Strip, isn't the only place where Italy is re-created in Nevada's Mojave Desert. Consider Ravella, a sprawling, 349-room resort on the shores of Lake Las Vegas, just 17 miles east of Sin City. Here, Tuscan-inspired architecture evokes old-world grandeur, while a white-sand beach, Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course, and dozens of hiking and jogging trails mean that travelers spend plenty of time outdoors—with frequent dips in the pool, of course. The best rooms are in the Bridge wing, designed to look like the Ponte Vecchio, while the Firenze Lounge is the spot for small plates, including sliced prosciutto and Italian olives. But unlike the Renaissance city, or even Venice's condensed version on the Strip, at Ravella, you'll end the evening casually dressed, roasting s'mores at the open-air fire pit.
Insider Tips
Weekend outdoor yoga classes take place on the hotel's Ponte Vecchio bridge (90-minute classes, $20).
Tour the nearly 3,600-acre Lake Las Vegas Resort grounds on a complimentary bike rental, available through the hotel concierge (reservations suggested).
Preferred Airport
Arrive at McCarran International Airport (LAS) which is approximately 21 miles from the resort. Anticipate about 35-40 minutes of travel time depending on traffic.1610 Lake Las Vegas Parkway, Henderson, Nevada, United States

Far removed from the buzz and noise of Las Vegas, this pristine retreat comes complete with a storybook village, world-class dining, shopping and outdoor activities. It is indeed your home away from home (or even better).
Don't Miss
10 Costa di Lago, Henderson, NV 89011.
Where to Shop: The Village at Lake Las Vegas, next door to the hotel, is filled with boutiques, specialty stores, and restaurants. Don't miss Flights of Fancy for kites, wind socks, and chimes to take advantage of the area's gusty winds.
20 Costa di Lago, Henderson, NV 89011.
Where to Eat: Chef Osamu Fujita—one of only eight master sushi chefs in the U.S.—runs Marssa, a modern Asian-fusion restaurant inside the Loews Lake Las Vegas. Chef Fujita himself is often prepping dinner at the stark sushi bar; bento boxes and handmade dumplings are worth ordering, too.

Dinner for two $100.
Where to Drink: Harry's, an old-world bistro and bar inside the Casino Montelago, is the best local place for beer, cocktails, and wine, though Bellinis are the house specialty. 8 Strada di Villaggio, Henderson, NV 89011. 1-702-898-7777

A couple of my schools have been issuing staff with Safeguarding information that should be kept with you at all times. The one from MKSCB was a rather neat business card sized bi-fold. So I have made a PSD of it that other might find useful.
Fully editable so you can change to fit in with your schools safeguarding policy.
