We were very lucky to find Rev. Rudy for our wedding.
He was great - very quick to respond to our questions, flexible and accomodating. He was attentive and got a sense of who we are as a couple, which was really nice. The ceremony included special touches that made it more personal.
Thank you very much!

Rudy was simply put FANTASTIC! He was very helpful and guided us through a perfect ceremony. I would recommend Rudy for any couple. Best part is he had no problem with preforming the ceremony outside and in the rain... Couldn't have asked for better.

We were very lucky to find Rev. Rudy on a whim during an online search, and approached him due to the proximity of his location to our ceremony venue. We had an informal original meeting and decided on the spot we would love for him to perform our ceremony. There is a way about Rev. Rudy that puts you at ease, calms you down and makes you listen. He listened to our story and a few days later sent us a most wonderful ceremony text for approval. It was absolutely perfect for our family. He knew what to include in the text better than we knew what to ask for.
On the day of the wedding we were so honoured to have him preside. He has a calm yet imposing demeanour, a most charming accent and a most convincing delivery. Everyone in our wedding party commented on how wonderful the service was and how nicely it was delivered. Our whole family radiated love that day, some cried and some laughed at the beautiful words he penned.
We were very lucky to have Rev. Rudy marry us, and are so grateful to have him officially declare the kick-off of our lives as husband and wife. If you are looking for the perfect officiant, you will not get anyone more wonderful Rev. Rudy.
Thank you so much for being part of our day!

From day one, we absolutely loved the dealing with Rudy, all the way to the ceremony - the personal touch he has for what he does is simply wonderful. I also have to thank Rudy for "project managing" the last items we forgot like the candle and the flowers. I can tell you that everyone was absolutely blown away by the ceremony, and was a big topic of conversation that evening at the reception...!

First and foremost we would like to thank Rev. Rudy for the amazing, outstanding professionalism and service he gave us. Rev. Rudy was extremely helpful and professional within 10 sec. of first meeting interaction with us. The friendliness since day one... you made us feel so comfortable with everything we wanted and needed... You conducted your interview in such a professional manner that you extracted so much valuable information and made your speech about our families and love in such way that is so hard to explain in words. Rev. Rudy's speech for the Memorial of my Mother who passed away 8 years ago just brought me to tears.. " No one" does that with me just like that.. and by that I'm paying you a huge compliment... I can go on and on about this Gentleman's professionalism and how delighted we are that we chose him as our officiant. Rev. Rudy A Million Thanks.. for all you did for us. P.S. You are always welome in my home.

We had thought of getting married at city hall, but we are so glad that Rev. Rudy was flexible at the 11th hour and agreed to marry us. The ceremony was perfect. Intimate, personalized based on our beliefs and also included our daughter. Much better than city hall and performed at the reception location, so no one had to be displaced! So glad we found him!

Rev. Rudy is kind, efficient and professional. He was quick to respond to all my emails that lead up to our wedding date. Rev. Rudy prepared a very warm reading prepared especially for us, making our very simple intimate ceremony a very special and memorable one. We both thank you!

Reverend Rudy is AMAZING!!! We could not have been more pleased with his service, professionalism, speaking ability, and organizational skills! Rev. Rudy is the officiant you want, to make the Officiant portion of your wedding stress-free, and super successful!! We are a totally wild / off the cuff / non-traditional couple, and require much focus and attention, for people to roll with our crazy ways, and deal with our high expectations (we mixed more than 10 different cultures / religions and 6 different ceremonies into our "specially customized" wedding ceremony (Rudy designed all of it, after our initial consultation & discussion) that we held at home with 76 guests! WoW! What fun, joy, happiness, & love, we all experienced as Rev. Rudy was 'on his toes' and never missed a beat when reacting to the jokes & 'cat-calls' from our friends & family, plus us interrupting him numerous times to insert a story, or kiss (mid ceremony). We can't recommend Rev. Rudy enough, he is simply the best!!! As a comparison, we called and interviewed 6 different Wedding Officiants + 2 companies that "rent" Wedding Officiants = What a relief to have found Rev. Rudy via Google! We are so happy we went privately (not with an Officiant company) and chose Rev. Rudy! Rudy offers a variety of flexible packages & can customize everything for you + he delivers the ceremony & "holds the space" better than any other Public Speaker / Minister / Officiant, in all the weddings we've attended! Many of our guests said "that was the most fun, & best wedding ceremony I've ever experienced; your Reverend was amazing; your ceremony sets the bar so high for any future weddings, it was so unique and well delivered!" There you have it = Rev. Rudy is definitely the Officiant you want for your Wedding, plus he also offers additional services and has access to a number of your wedding gift favours and ceremony purchasing accoutrements (sand ceremony vases, etc.) too! ~ Kevin & Magda, Married Feb 9th, 2013! :-)

Rev. Rudy Heezen conducted our wedding Ceremony on Nov. 24. The readings he read for our ceremony matched our personalities perfectly. He did a passing and blessing of our wedding rings which was so unique! He emailed right away with answers to our questions and was very communicative. Rev. Heezen was so helpful and approachable that I would recommend him to anyone I know! Thank you, Reverend!

With an authoritative voice and great presence, Rudy brought a serious and official tone to our ceremony, while still keeping it friendly and comfortable for all our guests. Many folks commented afterwards that Rudy was a great part of our wedding. Throughout the months leading up to the event, Rudy was always organized and replied promptly (even when he was on vacation). I highly recommend Rudy Heezen.

Zimbabwean Captain of Flight Ek423 Was Amazed at the Hijack Reports
Reports of an Emirates airliner hijacked turned out to be a mere hoax as the Dubai-based airline immediately called reports "highly inaccurate", according to Khaleej Times.
On Monday, international media reported that a Dubai-Nairobi Emirates flight, Boeing 777-200 with 272 passengers and 15 crew members on board, landed in Aden, Yemen, with a hijacker on board. Ms. Barton, of the Emirates' Public Relations Department issued a statement calling the incident "false" and announced that the aircraft indeed landed in Aden due to the captain's suspicion of a technical fault after taking off at 8:10 am (Dubai time) from the Dubai International Airport.
The Zimbabwean captain of flight EK423 was amazed at the hijack reports and declared that he was receiving excellent treatment from Yemen's Airport authorities. Ms. Barton emphasized that the plane was being checked and that all passengers were safe. As of now, Yeminia - Yemen Airways, are taking care of the passengers until the plane will be cleared and Emirates' staff from Yemen's capital Sanaa are prepared to look after lodging facilities, if the need arises.
Emirates announced that an alternative airplane had been sent to Aden to take all passengers to their original destination of Nairobi, just in time for their Christmas celebrations. Engineers from Dubai are on board the aircraft, which was sent, in order to check any faults on the grounded plane. (Albawaba.com)

Buffalo (Bison)/Mulberry Silk - Seeded Roving -
A new experiment, as a spinner weaver myself, I am always looking for something different, and this time we found it. we have blended our Pure American bison down and mulberry silk, with just a touch of noil to add some seeding texture . The blending of these two fibers, creates a blend (75% bison/25% silk). This roving is one super-soft spinning fiber! Treat yourself to some luxury. Buffalo fiber is beautifully de-haired and drafts like a dream but blended with the best silk it is a real experience.
Packaged in a little organza pouch to keep it lofty.
Natural color: bison rich brown and silk creating a silver/brown color.

Stars Dance - Selena Gomez
- Band Name: Selena Gomez
- Record Label: Hollywood
- Release Date: Jul 23, 2013
- Summary: The fourth full-length studio release for the Disney actress/singer is her first as a solo artist and includes contributions from The Cataracs, Desmond Child, Ester Dean, Mike Del Rio, Dreamlab, David Jost, The Monsters and the Strangerz, Rock Mafia, and Stargate.
- Record Label: Hollywood
- Genre(s): Pop, Electronic, Pop/Rock, Teen Pop, Club/Dance, Dubstep
- More Details and Credits »
Score distribution:
Positive: 5 out of 10
Mixed: 3 out of 10
Negative: 2 out of 10
Jul 24, 2013What's left, then, is a collection of 11 shinily produced pop songs that find Gomez trying on a series of different personalities with her slight-yet-capable vocals.
Jul 22, 2013Thanks to the strong songs, Selena's reliably strong vocals, and the variety of sounds, it adds up to be another fine entry in her catalog and just another example of why Selena Gomez is one of the best pop stars making music in 2013.
Jul 30, 2013The whirring Stars Dance is a confident but not aggressively blatant move to a more grown-up pop playing field.
Jul 22, 2013From the electro-punk opener Birthday onward, she's competent and entirely impersonal. But that's no impediment to enjoying the record, which darts efficiently from EDM to Bollywood to--Beliebers, look away now--sappiness inspired by her on-off boyfriend, Justin Bieber.
Jul 23, 2013Though she nods at Rihanna-style slither and Britney-esque grind, this is the sound of Gomez gliding gracefully into adulthood.
Jul 22, 2013Other than the sultry Stars Dance, much of this sounds like songs Rihanna rejected.
Jul 22, 2013It's a pop record, which means one killer track would redeem everything. Predictably enough, it never comes.
Score distribution:
Positive: 35 out of 54
Mixed: 8 out of 54
Negative: 11 out of 54
Jul 23, 2013Selena always doing good and soothing music. This time she's putting us to dance even more. When you ready come and get this amazing album, with amazing songs.… Expand
Jul 23, 2013It is one of the best albums of the year! With good vocals, very catchy tunes and two amazing singles released before hand Selena has really outdone herself proving that she is definitely one of the leading pop stars of 2013. The album itself is very diverse, with Like A Champion having a jamaican vibe to it, to Come And Get It with a hindi tune to the dance heavy B.E.A.T and Birthday to the more intimate Love Will Remember and Nobody Does It Like You to hopefully the albums next single Save The Day. The album has a great resemblance to a Shakira or perhaps Rihanna album and is definitely worth the wait!… Expand
Feb 2, 2014This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The release of highly anticipated 'Stars Dance' by growing performer Selena Gomez proves to be a well-produced, catchy and nicely delivered piece of teen electro-pop, with several light and fixable flaws.
Track no. 1 is Birthday', a punky song which does not only suit the singer perfectly, but proves to bear a unique sound accompanied by a banging bass, handclaps and crazy beats, perfect for a confident album opener.
'Slow Down' follows, with a simple but catchy electro-pop chorus that shows why it was chosen as the second single. Nothing completely new, but still fun to listen, bragging a terrific hook for dancing.
Next is title track 'Stars Dance', which stands out as an orchestral-dubstep song which captures the listener's ear since the very stringy beginning. One of the best songs in the album, it falls out of the 'title track is terrible' cliché, and lets Gomez showcase her vocal ability without overdoing production.
'Like a Champion' is a breezy, tribal-like piece of dancehall pop. It barely manages to grasp the album's concept while still briefly departing from loud electro-pop bangs and bursts, quite well may I add.
Lead single 'Come & Get It' is the album's smash hit, a stand-out on 'Stars Dance'. Following it's previous track's sound, it expands it with Indian background singing and a nice touch of electronic runs. It falls prey, however, to predictability and somewhat floppy lyrics.
'Forget Forever' is a personal favorite. With nicly controlled vocals, and a refreshing, sing-along chorus, it succeeds in it's purpose. It also lyrically departs the album's previous 'please don't leave me' concept and successfully takes on a 'forget you ever knew my name' punch line.
'Save The Day' is musically more of the same, however, it's pumping beats and Gomez' immersive vocals lead us onto a fantastic dubstep chorus and latin-like bridge. It shares a strange similarity with track 'Come & Get It' though, which both benefits and harms the singer's presentation.
'B.E.A.T.' has Gomez' vocals being messed and tampered with for about 3/4 of the song, which is not new, but manages to captivate us with a stuttering b-b-b-beat. Repetitive, yes, cute, yes, ultimately annoying, also.
As 'Write Your Name' begins, it seems to be taking a break from what we have been hearing, but as it approaches a banging dance-pop chorus we can't help but fall for it's catchy-yet-familiar tune. Smartly produced and with a suprisingly lovely rap verse by Gomez, it proves to be yet another hit-making material.
'Undercover' is both the nearest to a Guetta-like produced song and the highlight of the album (which is strangely disappointing). It features the album's different-but-the-same electro-pop arrangement in the chorus, but it's definitely a manically dancy song which keeps us waiting for that electronic explosion we've been technically hearing throughout 'Stars Dance', and to be able to do that half an hour into the album, is already a success.
'Love Will Remember' is the ballad of the album, and based upon the excessively covered relationship the singer had with Canadian artist Justin Bieber. Dramatically soothing, and awkwardly emotional, it's in the top 3 tracks from 'Stars Dance', with Gomez' vocals refreshingly undisturbed (mostly). However, many are likely to not make it this far in the album due to it's constant formula, leaving this love story unheard.
Two deluxe tracks followed the original release:
'Nobody Does It Like You' is a fun yet hollow song that barely saves itself from falling into the 'oh, again' category with a good dubstep chorus. It is, though, very similar to 'Slow Down', and since the latter's become a single, this track loses the little potential that surfaced.
'Music Feels Better' is the thirteenth and final track on 'Stars Dance'. It surpiringly showcases a 90's disco spirit and it's fun, carefree delivery is mainly the reason for a Deluxe purchase of the album.
Overall, 'Stars Dance' is a fantastically produced, well-delivered record that, whilst falling victim to predictable electro-pop situations, takes Selena Gomez' promising career and pushes it a step forward and away from Disney Queen status. Her new sound and direction suits her well, and fit nicely in her career, as 'Selena Gomez & the Scene' fans awaiting the band's return are sure to find 'Stars Dance' worthy enough to keep them excited.
Overall score: 8.0 out of 10… Expand
Oct 8, 2013Her debut album without her band, Selena Gomez and the Band, was released by Selena with a new, sexier, yet 'PG' rated image, which makes sense beause she is still with Disney when this album was released.
The tracklist of the album were okay for a debut album. The sexy opening song of the album, Birthday, seems to be a more 'PG' rated version of Rihanna's 'Birthday Cake', only the song is more catchier, more longer and the point of the song is there, it's about a freaking birthday. The closing song, Love Will Remember, is the best song to close this album. Even though it addresses to her ex, Justin Bieber, the electronic feel of the song does not feel emotional at all despite its catchiness.
There are not much highlights of the album which is disapointing. The highlights were Birthday and B.E.A.T., a sexy song that channels Dev.
The best highlight of the album was 'Forget Forever', which could have been a better lead single than its Indian music-inspired, Come and Get It.
Even though it's a great debut album from Selena Gomez, it lacked diversity in its production.… Expand
Dec 21, 2013Admittedly, it is evident that Selena Gomez has grown from her previous album. However, to me, this album just lacks a whole lot of authenticity. Sure, the songs are great to dance to, and most of them are pretty catchy, but is this album memorable? Sadly, no. Furthermore, the heavy-reliance on production was a little disappointing; I would have loved to hear Selena's raw voice instead of computers singing for her. The problem with this is that her live performances become let-downs, because she is incapable of efficiently showcasing her vocals. Selena has such a lovely voice, but her soft voice is all masked away. In saying that, if Selena chooses to venture out more in music in the future, hopefully she can lose the electronic feel and try something more acoustic. Stand-outs are Come & Get It, Save The Day and Like A Champion.… Expand
Oct 27, 2013This album sucks and Selena Gomez is the definition of no talent, pop star wanna be, look at me i am pretty and white therefore i can get whatever i want, let me date people more famous than me so i can move up in case system .
This is her worst album yet the only songs i recommend are come and get it, slow down, undercover, love will remember and stars dance (the song)… Expand

in the theatre with eva about to see the sex and the city movie. So excited!
My phone (and Eva's) just lost it's signal. I've never lost my signal inside this apt. before. Maybe somethings going on with Verizon?
got a signal again. That was so weird, i wonder what happened?
Packing with @evabecker. Looks like it's going to be a long night.
in the walk in clinic getting my sore throat checked out. Doctor offices are so creepy
Just finished a work session of 3 hours straight. Hopefully i didn't burn myself out and can work some more tonight.
Popular schoolgirl dies in 'emo sucide cult'
This is so ridiculous! I mean, it sucks that this poor girl killed herself, but a teacher to dismiss students cutting themselves and a fashion statement and not report it? What the fuck is wrong with them?
Also, the article goes on to say that My Chemical Romance is one of the forerunners of emo…WTF?
Apartment sadly not ready yet, hopefully we'll move this weekend. Time to eat mac n chreese with Eva while cuddling and watching a movie.
i'm getting the keys to my new apartment tomorrow/today! so excited!!!
Today's been pretty productive. Sewed my pants, fixed Eva's flat, and started packing.
I'm sick of cleaning/packing. I wish all my stuff would just move itself.
Kendra is here in Buffalo.still can't believe she moved here from CA. I'm not complaining, It's just going to take time to get used to it.
I just sold the giant stereo i've had since i was 18 (8 years). It feels good to be free of such a big possession i barely used.
we got the apartment!! We're celebrating at amy's place right now
Landlord said we can have apartment. I'm still weary until i sign the lease tomorrow. Hopefully it's not a repeat of last time.
May have an apartment tomorrow, waiting to hear back from 2 different ones on the same street. I just want the hunt to be over already.
5 hours of work logged so far today. I'm aiming for at least 8. I'm feeling really productive today.
My voice is so shot from the Ergs/Lemuria show last night.

Gap On The Wall
A couple of weeks ago we were at the Gap and I spotted this on the wall.
It's a bicycle from Public Bikes that was disassembled and shot for this in-store display (thereby they're not for sale). I thought they were pretty darn good looking. I'm more of a bike admirer than an actual bike rider (apologies to my cycling enthusiast father), so I feel like a bit of a poser saying this, but… I really want those posters to hang in our house. Not sure where, but somewhere. Here's a better shot of one of the panels from the Public Bikes blog.
I talked with the manager at my local Gap and they "made a note" to call me when they're done using them for display. This was promising because I expected to hear "sorry, we're not allowed to give those away" (which I've heard at other stores when I've asked, like Target). But it wasn't totally confidence inspiring either – because it sounded a bit like a "don't call us, we'll call you." So I also decided to randomly tweet about wanting them once the store is done with them, and a Gap manager elsewhere heard my plea and is going to try to snag me a set once they're bumped for holiday decor. Oh the power of Twitter. Who knows if it'll actually work out, but I gave it the ol' college try.
Is there any store display out there that you've been admiring (or thinking about recreating/DIYing)? Perhaps something at Anthropologie? Have any of you used actual store decor in your home? If so, how'd you go about getting it? Was tweeting involved? Or just regular old fashioned in-person asking? We always hear about folks who just get a call weeks or months later when the store is done with something (like friends of mine who got movie posters from Blockbuster when they were finished displaying them as new releases). Fingers crossed…

This past summer, my wife saw a Danny Briere life size cardboard cutout at a run down gas station in the Finger Lakes. She begged me to ask the owner if she could have it. As soon as I saw it though, there was a deal breaker. He was in his Buffalo Sabres uniform. Only Flyers cutouts in this household. Not like you can decorate with class using a cardboard cutout anyway.
Um, that is awesome but I totally agree…Briere can only be in a Flyers uniform…otherwise it's just tacky. ;-)
I think it is a great idea though it is hard to be patient isn't it. That is one life skill I haven't mastered. Sounds like the tweet really helped. I am not sure if it really goes with your office as I think the window in between might be too much of a separation but maybe you were thinking of a different wall in that room? You guys really rock.
That's funny, when I went grocery shopping this week I was thinking about doing that with a food display. I don't remember if it was for Campbell's or baking products, but it was an adorable little cardboard stove with a backsplash and hood. I thought my kids would get a kick out of it for a little while.
We have several movie posters from when my husband worked at a theater and now I have a friend who builds store displays for new movie releases and she will occasionally send some stuff our way.
I have the most adorable rack for my girls' dress up clothes that I got from a children's store that was closing. There were actually two and I still kick myself that I didn't take both!
Since Gap is closing all stores I would follow up with them.
Did anyone see the bus rolls that Madewell had in the windows about a year ago? I asked at 3 different stores, but none would offer them to me…….I've worked in store display for almost 20 years and I always save old display pieces, even old mannequins , for someone who asks for them…people really don't ask that often….
Did you know that your "painted fireplace" was featured on the Apartment therapy website on the 20th of this month.
Here is the link :
sherry and john,
i have a quick question. i opted to 'follow' you guys on my blog so that i'd get automatic updates whenever you post. but for some reason, you come up as suspended in my blog list. is there a reason for this? a) did i say something offensive, b) do you generally not allow people to follow you or c) is there some kind of weird blogspot glitch that i don't understand?
duh, i totally hadn't thought of resubscribing!
You guys show up as suspended for me too, but I still get notified of all of your posts. No problem there, it just looks funny.
Funny you mention Gap. I worked at babyGap for maybe 2 months, about 3yrs ago. They were pitching these mini wooden school desks they used for their mannequins and I totally snagged 1 for my then 10mo daughter. Here's an old cell phone pic of her almost 4years ago :http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbentley/2376450111/in/set-72157600667996805
These days eats her breakfast there every morning, while watching her morning shows. And it's the perfect place for painting her little finger nails! :)
I worked at Blockbuster for 6 years and people would request posters and standees all the time. Of course, they would have to fight us employees for them! I saved Brad Pitt (Legends of the Fall – yum!) from the dumpster. We've been happily living together for 16 years now. He's currently the bartender in my wetbar…the Men In Black are my bouncers. :)
When I was planning my wedding, I was collecting green bottles like you all did for your beverages, but mine were for centerpieces, and I needed a TON. My local Anthro had an amazing green bottle display, and I asked if I could have them when they were done with them. Unfortunately, they weren't going to be done until after my wedding. I did, however, inherit a huge box of Christmas ornaments from a different Anthro display. This was thanks to a co-worker, whose daughter used to do displays (and happens to be a design blogger that you have linked in your "blogs we love" section!).
I've asked for Starbucks holiday decorations in the past but got the "don't call us, we'll call you" that you mentioned.
I work for a petstore, and we had our a halloween party yesterday. There was a cardboard background that was orange and had whiteish Halloween designs on it. I took it..gonna use it as a step and repeat for my trick or treaters! LOL
Soo unrelated but Im curious Sherry, if you got the flu shot/H1N1 vaccine while pregnant with Clara? and any thoughts you or any of your readers have on the subject.
Thanks so much
Please let me know if you score big and get two offers for that print! It looks awesome, and my apartment has a bike theme that would work perfect with it :) Thanks!!
I hope you get it. We did a sailboat theme for my son's first bday and JCrew had Nautical flags as their display. I was so excited when they called me back and they were the best decorations (real rope and real canvas flags). I always love a good deal.
Bath & Body Works had these GORGEOUS bright pink Eiffel Tower display sets a few months ago. A coworker of mine works there part time and I asked her and she looked into it for me, but the one manager was weirdly reluctant and they got tosssed :(
For a long time I did have a Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler big ol' display thing that a cousin "rescued" for me from Blockbuster or Hollywood video or something. She saw them throwing it away and asked if she could have it for me. I displayed all of my Gone With the Wind memorabilia on it for years.
My husband is a cyclist & I would love to get these prints for his office. Unfortunately, we're expats in China so I can't run down to the Gap and beg. If you (for some reason) get duplicates, any chance I could have the extra? A wife can hope!
I worked at American Eagle Outfitters for several years during college. After a "floor-set" as they called it, I did get to take home some pretty sweet graphic square cardboard pieces that had eagles cut out of them. I ended up putting them up in my dorm room on this massive wall and it turned out pretty awesome! Good luck, I hope they call you back!
that's so awesome! i just made some art http://fauxtreschic.blogspot.com/2011/10/diy-trellis-canvas-art.html but never thought of asking for it off walls. i know that lots of big box stores just dump the stuff or donate them at reuse stores so it's a great idea to try to get them before they end up unwanted, unused, and tossed around for some abuse pre-love from someone who could & would truly appreciate it. yay for saving money & getting some unique art!
I'm living in Portugal after recently getting married, and I often get "the look" when I do something overtly "American"… including asking stores at our local mall if I can buy their window displays after the current promotions are finished. The answer has been "no" for just about every request… until last weekend, when, much to my European husband's embarrassment, I asked yet another store about an oversize world map with a gorgeous old antique wooden frame that was hung in their window display… and they said "We'll call you!" That little response alone made my heart surge with hope… hope that I will get the map AND that asking for store displays isn't as strange as all the Europeans think… :)
I worked at Victoria Secret for a few years. When they got new benches for the fitting rooms, I snagged the biggest one. Took it home, repainted it, and reupholstered it and it looked great! I still have it at the foot of my bed
Did any of you ever see the Anthro Wisteria display? It was made of twisted crepe paper and was gorgeous!
Check it out:
Not sure if this has been mentioned but there is someone on 20×200.com that deconstructs items. You might be able to find a print there that is similar to what you're looking for. And I want EVERYTHING from Anthropolgie. Only if it wasn't so darn expensive!
I worked at Banana Republic for 3 years right out of college and was actually responsible for placing the marketing and window displays. It always amazed me how much money was wasted on beautiful pictures/posters in store only to be instructed to throw them away a few weeks later when the sale began for that season. One year they had amazing black and white images from the African plains. I was instructed not to allow anyone to take them home and take them directly to the dumpster, I took them all out to my car and two of them are framed in my house. I allowed employees to take home obsolete marketing all the time. Why let it go to waste?!
I wrote the wine company Red Bicyclette after they had a really cute, illustrated poster of a French man on a bike with baguettes in his bike basket and a little dog on a leash that kind of reminded me of my dog, Bailey. They just sent me the poster, fit perfectly in a Michael's frame. It's in my office with all my other international maps, globes, posters etc from when I studied overseas.
Thought that was very cool of them.
I had a friend in high school that worked at The Limited Too. She knew I was/am obsessed with snow flakes. Without my asking, she brought me all of the snowflakes from the window display (about 50, 12-in snowflakes) after they had taken down their holiday display. That's probably one of the coolest gifts I ever recieved. They've decorated every space I've lived in since (although they've only been used seasonally since college ;)). I guess you just really need an 'in'.
Back in the day, you know before Twitter and all that, I wanted some window displays from Sam Goody. I talked up one of the guys who worked there and, lo-and-behold, I actually got my hot little hands on them once the store was done with them! I still have them at my parents… somewhere.
I work at Anthropologie and they will allow you to take the displays for a donation to a charity. All you have to do is talk with the visual merchandising manager at your local Anthro for all the details. But warning not all of the displays are up for grabs, only if it can not be reused or easily stored.
I was pretty obsessed with the 2009 Starbucks holiday decor. The yarn ball wreaths and "knitted" ceramic mugs. I stalked every Starbucks in my area (Richmond BC actually). Some were doing draws, some said no. I didn't win, but I actually ended up making my own wreath (a square version) and was pretty pleased with the result.
When I saw your post this morning, I thought the poster would be an awesome Christmas gift for my cycling obsessed hubby. You got a much better response from your Gap's manager. Mine told me I couldn't have it because "it must be destroyed" after the promotion. :-( Hope you are able to get it. I messaged The Public Blog to see if they could help me out. Keep us posted if you are able to get your hands on one. And if you do and decide it won't work for you home, I will happily take it off your hands!
Public says they don't have a copy because it was all designed and executed by Gap. Gap's marketing department gave me a big fat no. I have another lead, but we will see how that pans out. =)
We used decorations from a cell phone store at our wedding reception. My mom had to pick them up, put them up for the party and have them returned the next morning so they could put them up for display. It was awesome!
When my husband worked at Starbucks we got some pretty cool Christmas decorations one year. We still use some of them.
Every now & then you can get a store display. Back around 1996-ish, I got a giant foam core painting of yellow cat face from Tower Records. It was a promotion for Lisa Loeb's album Tails. You can see the cat here…http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tails_%28album%29.
It was pretty fab, but I did have to keep tabs on it. Basically had to be annoying, calling every couple of days to check on it, mostly because I was OBSESSED with it, but it had the added effect of them wanting me to buzz off, so they called me as soon as they were finished with it.
So my recommendation is near-incessant calling!
And after reading about all of these retail stores that toss their displays into the dumpster, I'm thinking that dumpster diving at the mall might become my new hobby!
My son's picture was on a Pottery Barn Kids poster/sign a few years ago. I ended up with three of the signs. Different family members had them hold the poster at their local store.
Most Anthropologie displays (created by their designers) are available for "purchase" after the stores are finished with them. I say purchase bc you don't pay the store, you donate to one of their approved charities. I did not know this until I saw a 3 tier chandelier made of strips of colorful book covers at a store. I wanted to take pictures of it for my son's nursery to recreate and hang over our glider. I was pleasantly surprised to hear that you can put your name in to request it. If no one else requests it, they give you a list of charities you can make a donation to-they tell you the amount it's worth, you pay the charity and show the receipt as proof when picking up. In my case, it was $50 which was a deal considering the amount of books I would have to buy to recreate the look. I did switch out some of the colors to better match my son's room but the hard part (stringing of the hoops etc) was done! I am not sure what happens if multiple people request the item-it could be you bid on it and highest bidder wins…it is my favorite item and would be adorable in an office someday.
I've totally had success with GAP giving away their posters- not since I had a college door room, granted, but they've definitely been generous before. I would hold out for it! Also, I am constantly stealing ideas from West Elm. CONSTANTLY. :-)
I've been looking for coral pieces for my bedroom for months to no avail. One day I walked into a womens' clothing store ('Seed' in Australia) and lo and behold, coral everywhere!
I emailed their head office but never received a reply. I wasn't expecting them for nothing either. I did ask the sales assistant about them first but she wasn't much help suggesting that I just go down to the beach and get myself some out of the ocean…
which is just as illegal as taking it straight out of her shop would be!
I don't know if you all belong to Fab.com but I saw this poster and thought you all might like it. with a title like "I <3 my bike" I figured it was right up ya'lls alley!
We were in Dublin for the 250 anniversary of Guinness. I was able to receive a poster from a bar in downtown Dublin. It hangs in my husbands office with the Guinness glass from the brewery.
Oh lordy – this reminds me. We totally decorated our dorm room with one of those giant abercrombie posters. because nothing says classy better than a half naked man. (I worked there…so thats how we got the thing. Athough I remember having to cut it into panels to get it into my car).
I remember that whenever we did a floor change, we just dumped the posters into the mall dumpster (of course, this was 7 ish years ago. One would hope they are better about recycling now).
I REALLY hope you get that call…I tried that a few years ago with a summer poster and I never heard back from them. When I did call, they told me they had been thrown out already. Sad! Will be crossing my fingers for you!
I'm an in-store artist for the grocery store Wegmans (upstate NY), and customers and employees ask for our displays all the time. It's such a huge compliment! Everything is 100% handmade, by us, and I love knowing people see our work as something to display in their homes. It's way more fulfilling than tossing it in the dumpster when the promotion/holiday is over, so ask!
I copied a potted plant idea I saw at anthropologie a while back and I'm still loving it. There's a pic on this blog post. Maybe I should start paying more attention to free art possibilities!
Not sure if you already knew/researched and figured this out/anyone else told you, but in case you'd like to know, I'm pretty sure those photos are by Toronto (my home!) artist Todd McLellan – http://www.toddmclellan.com/
He does lots of shots of deconstructed items, really cool stuff! there's more of his work for sale on 20×200, too: http://www.20×200.com/artists/todd-mclellan.html

The lodge is named in honor of one of the Sons Of Italy's most respected members.

Truth to Live By, Truth to Die For
by Charles R. Swindoll
See how I love your precepts;
preserve my life, O LORD, according to your love.
All your words are true;
all your righteous laws are eternal.
Thank You, Father, for breathing out Your Word through men so many centuries ago. Thank You for preserving the message that You revealed through the miracle of inspiration, Father. Thank You for Your Word—the inerrant, authoritative, infallible Word of God. We live in a day in which others' words have replaced your eternal Word, at least in the public's mind. In this difficult era, it is hard to hear again Your Word. We pray that the scales will be lifted from our eyes and that which has blocked our hearing will be removed so we might see and hear and be comforted and encouraged by Your revealed Word. May the truth that appears in Your Word make its journey through our minds and probe deep within our hearts, so that our minds are transformed and as a result, our actions.
Father, we pray that You will cause us to glean from Your Word truth to live by, knowing that it represents truth to die for. Ours is a troubled era. The battle for men's and women's souls and for our youth's minds is raging. And rather than simply throwing a fit and screaming at the top of our voices, we bring our requests to You. We ask that Your truth may equip us with sufficient ammunition to do battle in a world that's lost its way and is guided by an enemy who is deceptive and effective, who knows exactly where he's going. We pray that we will grasp the value of doctrine as it establishes us for whatever comes our way—those surprises, those unexpected events, those things we will call tragedies, and those joys and delights that are before us.
Anchor us, our Father, to the bedrock of truth and remind us that Your Son, Jesus Christ, is the same yesterday and today and forever. It's all His story. Our Father, our eyes are upon Jesus. It is in His merciful, matchless name we pray. Amen.
See also Isaiah 40:6–8; John 17:17; 2 Timothy 3:16–17; Hebrews 13:8; 2 Peter 1:19–21.

Honour Thy Mother
In some parts of the world women are still not being given the same regard, respect and freedom as men.
Somewhere in the world today a woman is being denied her right to free will, free speech, freedom to vote, freedom to happiness, freedom to drive a car, access to education and many more of the freedom that many of us enjoy. This is a sad reality. Even in several modern cities and so called advanced nations, women are still not seen and treated as equals of men. But we can do something about this. We can start with ourselves. We should not be too proud and see ourselves as better than others. We should learn how to treat each other with respect no matter what our gender may be. Despite of our differences, the truth remains the same. We are all human beings. It's great to see that the cycling world is honouring women. This coming Mother's Day, May 13th, get on your bike and encourage others to join you in a ride honouring mothers and women all over the world. Be a leader in your community and organise a cycling tour for women. Read the whole article here!

CRIDERSVILLE — Cridersville Police Department investigated a report of two dogs entering a neighbor's yard and killing a dog at approximately 9 a.m. on Monday, Sept. 29, at a Cridersville residence.
Cridersville Police Chief John Drake said the owner of the deceased dog had the Chihuahua mix tied out in the yard at the 300 Block of West Sugar St., Cridersville, when two dogs, a husky and a part wolf breed, entered the yard and attacked the Chihuahua.
The Wapakoneta community came together Saturday afternoon and into the evening to celebrate with wings, football and favorite beverages at the 13th Annual Wapak Wing Fest to support the Lima VA clinic.
SIDNEY — The sounds of raw brass, delicate woodwinds and percussive instruments could be heard resonating together off of Sidney Memorial Stadium Walls on Saturday, Sept. 27, in the 28th annual Sensational Sounds Marching Band Festival.
Wapakoneta High School Marching Band performed along with high schools from Covington, Miami East and Sidney in an event fully dedicated to showcasing young musicians' talents.
A former receptionist has been indicted by the Darke County grand jury for allegedly stealing or attempting to steal more than $360,000 from the estates of a Wapakoneta couple.
Gerald D. "Watermelon" Keller, 78, of rural Spencerville, died 1:10 a.m. Sunday, Sept. 28, 2014, at his residence, following an extended illness, with his family at his side. He had been a Spencer Twp. Trustee for the past 12 years.
Charles E. Stonehill, 86, of Wapakoneta, died at 3:10 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 26 at his residence. He was born Jan. 8, 1928, in Orange Twp., Hancock County Ohio to the late Swan Doyal and Harriett Mary Ewing Stonehille. He married Evelyn I. Stemen July 3, 1958 and she survives in Wapakoneta.
CELINA — The Wapakoneta Redskins used a pair of early turnovers to establish a lead and keep distance between them and the Celina Bulldogs on the scoreboard Friday.
Wapakoneta remained unbeaten in 2014 with a 34-12 win Friday over the Bulldogs in a Western Buckeye League varsity football contest in Celina.
The Redskins have started the season 5-0, with four of those wins coming on the road, including Friday night.
FORT LORAMIE — It's hard to field a team with just 25 players on a roster, it's even harder when injuries hit especially to your most important positions on the team. An undermanned team, combined with injuries and shoddy play can all accumulate to a bad season.
This is the case for the Waynesfield-Goshen varsity football as the Tigers' season is falling apart after falling to Fort Loramie Redskins, 49-6, Friday night in a Northwest Central Conference matchup.
Wapakoneta City School students banded together to provide for needy in the community, but also to honor a woman who is remembered as a "faithful volunteer" at God's Storehouse in Wapakoneta.
The students who participated in the Barb Norton district-wide canned food drive were awarded with a casual dress day on Friday, Sept. 26. God's Storehouse Chair Carol Berg said the efforts of the students and teachers were much appreciated, along with the canned foods provided to stock the food bank's inventory.
For the first time ever, the Wapakoneta Family YMCA, in collaboration with the Ohio Alliance of YMCAs, will offer a program that will allow students to participate in a simulation of the democratic process.
The program is called Ohio YMCA Youth in Government, which began in 1952, and is offered in several states across the country. The YIG movement as a whole, however, began in 1936 in New York. Although it has existed in Ohio for more than 60 years, this is the first time students living in Wapakoneta will be able to participate.

Tasker plugin for the Nova actions and configuration options.
It would be really awesome if Nova will provide a plugin for Tasker for better automation of our smartphones. Really miss the possibility to enable/disable launcher screen rotation when I put the phone into the car dock. I have to do it manually or I have to keep it on all the time, what I don't like.

Bingo! If you can expose the option to set the default home screen either as an activity or a shortcut, it would be awesome.

Joe Williams
— Joe Williams
Joe Williams 48, retired from the Army in 2009. He lives in Northern Texas. "Doors close on a lot of vets because they don't have the experience," he says. "What Purple Heart Services does is they take the disabled veterans, and they send you a computer, and they train you to work at home, with pay, for 17 weeks of training. They give you the basics about computers, computer technicians, customer service/help desk training. It's very high tech and once you finish they help a lot. I only had 2-3 weeks lag time between when they called me back and offered me a job. It wasn't what I dreamed for, but it was a foot in the door. Sooner or later I was offered a work contract, and now I'm working with a large management development company based out of OH. I'm contracted to work for them as a help desk analyst." Williams says there's a strong connection amongst the students in the class because of their shared background as vets. "I keep in touch via email, messaging, chat. One of the guys, Mike, lives in Texas, and I met him when I went on vacation." He also says,"The skills you learn in the army, they may not relate directly, but they do as far as your interpersonal skills. You learn to be well disciplined, that's what the military's about, and you have that can-do attitude, you're flexible to change. So when things change all of a sudden you can adapt very easily and overcome."

Sun guard Kara Lawson, who played for the 2008 Olympic team was in Colorado Springs, Colo., on Friday as a member of the 2013-16 USA Basketball Women's Junior National Team Committee that will be selecting both the 2013 USA U19 World Championship and USA World University Games teams.
Both teams are out there trying out for this summer's teams. That includes five UConn players – Breanna Stewart, Morgan Tuck and Moriah Jefferson are competing for U19 spots. Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis and Bria Hartley are contestants for the World University Games team.
Before leaving for this afternoon's preseason game against the New York Liberty in Newark, Lawson she talked to the U19 trials participants about what it means to represent USA Basketball and what they need to do during trials in order to make a team
"I told them I was familiar with where they are, having tried out for USA Basketball teams in high school and college," Lawson said Saturday. "I understand the various emotions going on inside them.
"Obviously, I've also had the opportunity to make [national] teams. I explained to them what those teams were like to play on. I realize there were a lot of players there [in U19 camp] that have played [nationally] before. But there are many that haven't. I just tried to offer them my perspective of what it means to play USA Basketball and what the atmosphere was like on those teams that were successful."
Those who make the team will be announced on Sunday morning.

If you're looking for a bright light for the Edmonton Oilers and their awful 2013-14 NHL season, you're going to be hard pressed. Almost nothing has gone according to plan or by the book, while the fleet of top-end young forwards have under-performed and been outworked on a nightly basis.
Nail Yakupov has reached bona fide prima donna status, Taylor Hall has battled injuries (again) and no one on the blue line seems to know how to actually play defense.
One of the only players that has managed to do anything positive this season is Mark Arcobello, and the Oilers have rewarded him for his constant effort by demoting him to the AHL.
#Oilers recall defenceman Oscar Klefbom from @OKCBarons, assign forward Mark Arcobello. pic.twitter.com/bJ2DoZ1QJ6
— Edmonton Oilers (@EdmontonOilers) November 15, 2013
It's understood that Arcobello only got his chance to make an impact when the lineup was riddled with injuries. It isn't like this is the Chicago Blackhawks or Boston Bruins we're talking about though. This isn't a move to get a promising young player some ice time in the minors while the NHL squad kicks butt and takes no names.
This is an Edmonton team that is 4-14-2. This is an Edmonton team that didn't hit double-digit points in the standings until November, and this is an Edmonton team that has no semblance of an identity on a nightly basis. So Craig MacTavish, in his infinite wisdom, buries the squad's fifth-leading scorer.
Arcobello has more points on the year than Ales Hemsky and Justin Schultz, and he's tied with Hall and David Perron with 12. You'd have to combine the point totals of Nail Yakupov (4), Ryan Smyth (4), Andrew Ference (1), Sam Gagner (1) and Will Acton (3) to surpass Arcobello, yet this is the player that you demote?
It makes no sense.
Do the Oilers need another defenseman? Absolutely. And that's why trading away Ladislav Smid was on the short-sighted side, and it's already coming back to bite Edmonton.
How long the talented forward will be riding buses in the AHL is unclear, but one thing is certain: MacTavish has lost control of this ship entirely and the moves that he's making are not sound ones.

Singapore's first cat cafe has been much talked about. A common concept in Japan, with similar ventures popping up all across the globe. For those unfamiliar with the concept, the idea is that aside from the usual drinking and eating you get to hang out with, stroke, cuddle and even groom the cats. Is it as cool as it sounds? Having visited, we can safely say.....yes!

A Guide to Buying a Tailgate Latch
Owning a truck can make your life easy especially if your job entails having to carry around heavy loads here and there once in a while. To keep your haul securely in place, your vehicle's equipped with a tailgate latch to lock up the equipment on your truck bed. However, if this goes rusty and broken, you can always get it fixed. But if you can't, then that really leaves you with no choice but to buy a new one for your truck. So here's a guide to help you out when looking for a new tailgate latch.
What's the purpose of a tailgate latch?
Latch means fastener and that's what it basically does: to fasten the tailgate. So the main purpose of the tailgate latch is to lock up the gate of the truck to avoid the load from bouncing off the truck when on the road.
What qualities should you look for in a tailgate latch?
There are different stores out there selling a tailgate latch for your truck, but you have to be careful when buying. Some are really expensive yet break easily, and some are really affordable and could last for a longer time. Look for a latch that fits really well on your tailgate and would securely lock the door. Also, since rust is an eyesore, find one that's not prone to easily rust especially when the latch is exposed to sun and rain.
Where can you find a good tailgate latch?
Since there are already a lot of auto stores in the industry, you could try canvassing for a really affordable and a durable one. It's a good idea to step inside these car shops especially when you can feel and see the new latch yourself. A drawback when visiting these stores is when the tailgate latch that you are looking for is not readily available probably because there was no delivery yet or any other excuse that these stores have. Another option for you is by exploring the World Wide Web for online automotive businesses and read reviews on the Internet. Reading the opinions of the experts can help you come up with the decision because they have experiences on the different latches in the market. Shopping online can also be very convenient especially when all you have to do is click and wait for it to be shipped to your address. Plus, the parts come directly from the warehouses so there's no excuse for them not to have one readily available. You can even get the tailgate latch at a lower price.
These are just some heads up on the tailgate latch. Don't forget to explore and canvass for prices. Be careful not to end up buying from suspicious brands. Good luck!

However, to keep the load at the truck bed securely in place, the automobile is equipped with a tailgate and a latch. This is responsible for locking the truckload so that it won't fall off at any time when you're speeding up on the road. When this gets busted, it's very easy to repair that you don't even need to ask a professional mechanic to do the job for you. With just a few tools, a garage, and these easy steps, you're sure to replace your old tailgate latch in no time.
Difficulty level: easy
What you'll need:
- Slotted screwdriver
- Socket wrench
- Replacement tailgate latch
Step 1: First, you'd want to keep your truck stationary. So, park your car in your driveway or garage.
Step 2: Open the tailgate and take off the two run channel bolts at the top edge by using a socket wrench.
Step 3: Take off the two bolts at the bottom of the tailgate. Next, carefully lift it off from the tailgate cover plate and place it aside.
Step 4: Using a socket wrench, remove the two bolts that secure the latch assembly. After that, use the slotted screwdriver to lift off the assembly.
Step 5: Install the new latch and reinstall the bolts. Put back the cover plate with its bolts, close the tailgate, and you're done!
Warning: Since the cover plate is really heavy, be careful when removing it. You might want to ask for a helping hand when doing this.
These are just a few easy steps to guide you in replacing your damaged tailgate latch. Now, you can latch up your tailgate without the help of a mechanic. Be careful and good luck!

New York City's Governors Ball Music Festival hosted both incredible live acts and fearless fashion.
Sheared Right
Many concert-goers use music festivals as an excuse to wear outfits that risk violating decency laws (hello, underbutt), but we prefer this lovely redhead's approach. Her striped bikini top looks infinitely classier beneath a casually knotted, semi-sheer button-down.
