Mad (Wo)Men's Office Style Decoded
These ladies know how to dress the part.
By Hallie Gould
The Working Women of Mad Men
Janie Bryant's critically-acclaimed costumes for Mad Men need little introduction. Over the past 6 seasons, characters' wardrobes became so iconic that viewers developed a certain kind of relationship with the employees from Sterling Cooper to SC&P. Who hasn't shopped for a high-waisted pencil skirt and thought of Joan, or wondered if Peggy would approve of a particular blazer? We look back at some of our favorite outfits the working women of Mad Men have worn on Madison Avenue.

very nice alternative to heavy stuffing!
Vegan Thanksgiving: Stuffing Recipe
Vegetarians and vegans don't eat turkey on Thanksgiving (obviously) so there's really only one reason to make stuffing — its yummy! This stuffing doesn't need to sit inside a turkey and is super simple to make.
- 6 cups bread, diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or Earth Balance
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 stalks celery, sliced
- 2 large carrots, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1/4 teaspoon rosemary
- 1/4 teaspoon thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon sage
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 3 tablespoons dried cranberries
- 3/4 of a granny smith apple, sliced
- 1/4 cup walnuts
- 1/4 cup pecans
- 2 Sunshine Burger Hempfest Breakfast patties, crumbled
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1 1/2 cups vegetable stock
- pepper, to taste
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place vegan bread in a baking pan and place in oven for about 15 minutes, until the vegan bread is well toasted. Meanwhile, warm the Earth Balance in a saucepan and sauté the onions, celery and carrots over medium heat until onions are translucent.
Remove vegan bread from oven and add onion mixture, herbs, parsley, raisins, optional apple, nuts, Sunshine Burger Hempfest Breakfast Patty and salt. Mix well. Carefully drizzle the stuffing with vegetable stock and toss gently.
Bake, uncovered, for 20-30 minutes. Season with black pepper if desired.

Guestbook comments from the manager
Es war ein wunderbarer Aufenthalt. Diese Wohnung liegt zentral im alten Stadtkern, ist ruhig und nach unseren Vorstellungen geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Herrlich war der Ausblick auf die Kirche, die nachts bestrahlt wurde. Frühstück fanden wir gleich um die Ecke. Die Bar können wir wirklich empfehlen; preiswert, sehr nettes Personal, guter Schinken und frischgepresster Orangensaft. Wir waren 6 Personen im Alter von ca 60 Jahren. Die Betten waren mit guten Matratzen ausgestattet Falls wir wieder nach Malaga kommen, dann würden wir die Wohnung erneut mieten.

main index
"This wiki is [...] 'stereotyped and trite.' In other words, dull and uninteresting. We are [...] about [...] showing off how snide and sarcastic we can be."Suppose Bob, a famous critic, says that Tropers: The Movie "had the potential to be a great work of art in different hands, but the lead actor is a drug addict and the director was Uwe Boll." In the commercial, however, we hear that Bob has called the movie "[...] a great work of art[.]" The commercial has just quote mined. It's a dirty, rotten, low-down trick, one of The Oldest Ones in the Book, and is a subtrope of Blatant Lies and Weasel Words. Features commonly in sloppy rhetoric and propaganda pieces. Unfortunately, this usually works with an ill-informed audience, as the speaker can usually expect that they will not check the source for the quotes. Frequently used as part of an ad hominem fallacious argument. When this technique is practiced on audio to make a deceptive soundbite (as in confessional interviews on reality shows, or comments that are then used as voiceovers), it's called a "Frankenbite" — probably because in particularly bad cases, one can actually hear where two audio clips were spliced together. Compare/Contrast Quote Swear Unquote (fiddling with quotes, but not passing them off as accurate). Also compare Manipulative Editing. Very likely to lead to Beam Me Up, Scotty!. Despite the similarity in sound, has nothing to do with Enemy Mine.

From Aldershot to the Lonely Mountain, Martin Freeman is Frontman in Hobbit Trilogy
By AdFeatures | Monday, December 17, 2012, 20:48
Advertorial Feature
The Hobbit
Hobbit 2
One of the year's most anticipated movies was released on the 13th of December 2012 and features, dwarves, dragons, wizards and short people with hairy feet. Unless you have been living under a rock for the last 10 years you will know we're talking about Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey.
The Hobbit is a prequel to the unprecedentedly successful Lord of the Rings Trilogy and is based on a book of the same name by the same master-author, J. R. R. Tolkien. The movie features some of the same star-studded cast as the original trilogy such as Ian McKellen as the great wizard Gandalf, Elijah Wood as fellow hobbit Frodo Baggins, Serkis as Gollum and Kate Blanchet as Galadriel.
A new addition to the cast and playing protagonist Bilbo Baggins is Martin Freeman, perhaps known best for his role in parody based British comedy series 'The Office'. Freeman, who was born and raised in Aldershot, started acting at the young age of 15 when he joined a local theatre group. He has since appeared in countless TV shows, theatre productions and feature length movies such as Love Actually (2003) and Hot Fuzz (2007).
His featuring role in what is soon to be a trilogy of its own, The Hobbit, is probably the jewel in his acting crown and has sprung him to world-wide fame. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is set to be one of the biggest grossing movies of the year and follows Freeman's character on a treacherous trail to the Lonely Mountain with a band of dwarves in toe.
Whether you were a fan of The Lord of the Rings trilogy or not, this is undoubtedly a movie mile stone in the making and the visual grandeur alone is enough to have your seat booked at your local cinema. The movie will be playing in eye-popping 3D in cinemas that can allow it so make sure you get your seats booked at the Vue Cinemas at Stains upon Thames.

How to Safely Clean a Garbage Disposal
Last updated 2 years ago
Your garbage disposal handles a large volume of waste, and after a while it can start to smell. As this video explains, cleaning out your garbage disposal can eliminate odors and help it perform better.
Never put your hand in a garbage disposal. If you cannot clear your disposal with tongs or pliers, contact a professional plumber. For regular cleaning, use ice, vinegar or rock salt, and lemon peels. First, add the ice and then the salt or vinegar, and run cold water for five to ten seconds while activating the disposal. For best results, clean the mechanism every couple of weeks.
For more information about garbage disposal care and maintenance, contact Beacon Plumbing, Heating & Mechanical at (206) 720-2040.

Let's face it - putting money in a savings account isn't exactly the most exciting thing to do with your hard-earned cash, even for adults. If you find it difficult to motivate yourself to save, imagine how kids feel about saving. Here are some tips on how to help motivate your kids to save money and become financially responsible individuals:
Have your kids agree to an amount that they should save weekly and the amount they can spend on whatever they want for the week.
Don't just make your kids save money for the sake of saving money or "because you told them so." Help your kids set goals for themselves. If there is a toy your child wants, make him or her earn it with his or her savings. Or, find a charity that your kids would be interested in helping, and have their savings go to that charity.
Visual aids are great tools to use for young children to help them see the benefits of saving. For example, give your kids two transparent piggy banks or jars, and have them put the agreed upon amount of allowance in these "savings accounts". Pay your kids a set percentage of interest in the second piggy bank or jar. Your kids will be able to literally see their savings accounts grow, and they will be able to see the money they earned by simply putting their money in the "bank."
Once your kids are older and understand the concept of saving, open a savings account for them at your local bank. Take your kids to the bank each week to deposit their money rather than doing it for them, and have them look at their deposit receipts and bank statements so they can see how their accounts are growing.
Similar to paying your kids interest, you can match the amount, or a percentage of the amount, that your kids put away. This technique will help your kids learn the benefits of 401(k)s, as many employers match a portion of their employees 401(k) contributions. Many first jobs teenagers get do not have 401(k) benefits, so you can provide this service for them yourself.
Whether you like it or not, your kids are constantly observing you. Use this to your advantage by making wise financial decisions. If you don't have the greatest history of financial management, now you will have the extra motivation of not only feeling like you need to be financially responsible for your own sake, but also for your children's sake.

Ways to Save
Last week, in honor of Financial Literacy Month, 1st Mariner Bank had the pleasure of hosting a group of seventh grade students from the Empowerment Academy in Baltimore City who are currently participating in Operation HOPE's Banking on Our Future (BOOF) program.
BOOF's purpose is to teach people at a young age how to make educated and responsible financial decisions to promote dignity, hope, and economic self-sufficiency in low-wealth communities. BOOF courses are offered to schools and communities free of charge and are led by HOPE Corps volunteers who have undergone comprehensive training in financial literacy and teaching techniques. The program has reached over 700 schools and community-based organizations in the U.S., South Africa, and Haiti.
The Empowerment Academy's BOOF program is run by our own Guy Stafford, SVP, CRA Officer and Community Lending Manager.
The visiting students were welcomed by Guy Stafford along with Mark Keidel, President, and Dennis Finnegan, EVP, Retail Banking. The students then split up into groups and were escorted around to different departments of the bank.
Students were brought to the teller training room, where they were "trained" to become tellers. They even got to "process" basic transactions. Once they were finished training, students were given a tour of our Canton branch.
The eCommerce team explained to the students how 1st Mariner Bank uses social media, and the
students discussed smart ways and not-so-smart ways to use their Facebook and Twitter accounts.
The students also discussed and were given advice on many firsts that would be coming up, such as how to prepare for their first job interview, things to consider when purchasing their first car, and tips on saving money for college.
The 1st Mariner presenters and volunteers were very impressed by the students' eagerness to learn about banking and making smart financial decisions, and we can't wait until their next visit!

Community Spotlight
He travels to the homes of all the good children in America in one night, he is the only known mammal able to lay eggs, AND he also happens to be a financial genius. He's the most interesting bunny in the world. Wait, let's back up for a second… "A financial genius?" You skeptically ask. Read on and I'll prove it's true. These are just a few things that the Easter Bunny has taught me about my credit.
Like Santa Clause and the Tooth Fairy, the Easter Bunny is incredibly busy, so he doesn't waste his time with the "bad" children. He only wants to go to the houses of children who turn in their homework on time and take out the trash when asked.
As it turns out, lenders feel the same way. Lenders use your credit history as a tool to determine how likely it is that you will repay their loan. If you have a history of not paying your bills on time, lenders are going to see this and likely either deny you a loan or grant you a loan at a heavy price.
The Easter Bunny has a great deal of children to keep track of. So if Kathy takes Owen's lunch money, but you get blamed for it, the Easter Bunny might not know the whole story. As a result, instead of that giant chocolate bunny you were expecting in your basket, the Easter Bunny might only leave you a couple of stale peeps.
Similarly, let's say someone gets ahold of some of your personal information. That person could open a credit card in your name, max out the card, and never pay a dime. Guess who the creditor is going to come after for collection? The person whose name is on the card – YOU! Just like getting blamed for taking Owen's lunch money wasn't fair, neither is this, but such is life.
To avoid a situation like this from happening to you, it is important that you monitor your credit. As stated by the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act, you are entitled to one free copy of your credit report each year from each of the three major credit bureaus (Experian, Trans Union, and Equifax). You can find your reports at www.annualcreditreport.com. If you find information on your credit report that is not accurate (i.e. accounts that you did not open yourself), you should report your findings immediately. The United States Department of Justice lists the names and contact information of agencies you should contact if you suspect you are a victim of identity theft. Proving yourself to be a victim of fraud can be a lengthy and burdensome process, and until you are able to straighten out the situation your credit will be adversely affected. However, you can minimize the burden by checking your credit report often.
Spoiler Alert: Continue reading only if you are prepared to learn the truth about the Easter Bunny.
As it turns out, the Easter Bunny sometimes gets some help filling baskets from Mom and Dad. (Did I just blow your mind?) Consequently, you might find some inconsistencies in your basket from year to year. For example, Mom might love to put a big chocolate bunny in your basket every year, but when it's Dad's turn to fill your basket, he might see a greater value in having lots of marshmallow peeps. (And don't forget the basket you get from Crazy Aunt Millie each year filled with raisins and dental floss.) While you can give your input, what you receive is ultimately decided by whoever fills your basket that year.
Although the three major credit bureaus all essentially look at the same components when determining credit scores, they each use a different algorithm which can result in three different credit scores. That's why it is important to check your credit report and score from all three credit bureaus. Although the reports are free, viewing your credit score costs a small fee. Paying for your credit score is definitely worth it, as it could end up saving you money in the long run.
You wake up the morning of Easter and run downstairs to find all your treats, but what you find is sub-par. You can mope and whine about it, or you can think about why this happened and what you can do to get a better basket next year. After reflecting upon your behavior from the previous year, maybe you realize that you fought with your little brother almost every day and broke a couple of vases playing ball in the house. These are two things you decide you will work on over the next year, and if you stick to your goals, you should expect a marvelous basket next year!
Of course, your best bet is always to begin good habits young. Start yourself off with good credit, and slowly build your way up to superb credit. However, various circumstances often prevent this ideal situation from happening. If your credit isn't where you'd like it to be, here are a few tips to help raise your credit score:
Whenever you're in doubt when it comes to your credit, ask yourself one question: what would the Easter Bunny want me to do?

High school baseball players in New England understand there are two phases to their season – chilly and warm. April is usually rainy and cool until the final week of the month. Players must deal with the conditions and try to persevere, knowing the warmth of May is eventually going to arrive.
With the temperature climbing to 76 degrees on Sunday, there's a hint that warmer weather is right around the corner. That's good because the division races are starting to take shape and some of this week's games are pretty interesting.
WOONSOCKET - School Superintendent Robert J. Gerardi Jr. will be meeting with school officials in Maynard, Mass. this week to discuss a possible employment contract after the Maynard School Committee last week voted to hire Gerardi as its new school chief.

PAWTUCKET – Bill Donnelly has done a pretty good job of putting Vietnam in his rear view mirror.
"I came home from the war and went right back to where I was before," said Donnelly, a former rifleman with the 196th Light Infantry Brigade. "I had been a kid from Pawtucket Vocational who played a lot of sports and was having a good time when I got drafted. I returned home two years later, resumed playing basketball and softball, and began my own printing business."
Donnelly had a lot of difficult Vietnam memories to suppress. He threw himself into his work and his sports outlets.

Vogue pattern # 8846. Love the idea/ look of this dress though it's tough to see the detail with a print fabric. If I were to make this dress again I would probably use a solid fabric.
Satin, zipper, interfacing & thread
Jan 24, 2013, 08.01 PMby alexus1325
GASP!!! It's AWESOME!!!! I was looking for reviews of this pattern and couldn't find any, so I'm really happy to see what it looks like made up by a "real" sewist. How were the directions and construction? Any weird problems with the pattern? Oh gosh, I want this pattern :P
Jan 24, 2013, 09.49 PMby chillwear
It was pretty easy to make, no real issues. It's a little time consuming. I want to make it again in the same version only with the sleeves. Look forward to seeing it made by others, go for it ;-)

Assuming you had all of the money in the world, would you spend it on these speakers? For the price to feed a small family for years, you could have MBL's X-treme Speakers.
Born Rich says that these units are "perfectly balanced acoustically brilliant sound." For $180,000, they'd better be.
Standing six feet tall, the features include four proprietary 12-inch subwoofers and two omni-directional drivers: one is suspended and inverted above the other, mounted on a massive platform made from carbon fiber, aluminum, steel, acrylic, and wood. For that price, it should be made from tiny baby ivory-billed woodpeckers.
Start saving; they will be officially launched at January's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. How many showgirls could you get for that price?

Due to the enormous popularity of the Twilight movies and HBO's True Blood series, dressing up as a vampire for Halloween has gone from outdated to über hip. In fact, there are even people so caught up in the craze that they claim to be real-life vampires but as we learned in this interview below, Keith Richards is not one of them. While speaking with CBS news correspondent Anthony Mason to promote his new autobiography, Life, the Rolling Stones guitarist debunked the legendary tale that he once had a total blood transfusion in Switzerland. Watch it here.
Richards did, however, confirm the rumor that he snorted his father's ashes, but claims the incident came about by accident when he was burying his father's ashes beneath an oak tree he was planting.
"But as I took the lid off the box, fine bits of my Dad flew onto the table, you know, like powder. And honestly I could not resist. I just scooped him up there, took out a straw and, 'See ya, Dad!' (sniffs) And I did a little line of him. Yeah. I did that," he confesses.
"And the rest of him is around this oak tree, which is growing incredibly well."
Watch him recount the story here.

Where did this story begin for you? The action centers on a wedding of two women. Was gay marriage an inspiration?
Actually, the story began in a radio station in my hometown of Norwich, CT, where I was promoting my just-finished comic novella Wishin & Hopin. So whats next for Wally Lamb? the announcer asked, and not wanting to appear dopey by revealing my lack of plan, I improvised. Im thinking of writing about the flood, I said. If youre from Norwich, you know that the flood refers to the devastation caused when, in 1963, the collapse of a dam unleashed millions of gallons of water on the city, destroyed the shopping district, and took five lives. I was a 12-year-old eyewitness to the horrors that night.
How did you come up with the title?
In 2007, my wife, Chris, and I attended a performance of the musical Ten Million Miles, which featured a Patty Griffin song titled We Are Water. I liked the alliterative sound of the phrase and scrawled it on the front of my playbill. What does that mean?, I kept wondering: We are water? I started writing the novel to find out. Usually I title my stories after theyre finished. This time, the title came first.
Why tell this story through the voices of various characters? And why not tell any of it through Vivecas voice?
The multi-voiced approach wasnt planned; it emerged organically as part of the process. I began by speaking in tandem chapters as Orion and Annie to learn their differing viewpoints about their marriage and divorce, their careers, and their children. Wanting to link Annies impulse to create art to that of an earlier artist, Josephus Jones, I began to listen to the voice of old Gualtiero Agnello, whose validation of both Annies and Joes artistic talents provides a bridge between them and introduces the theme of the link between creativity and madness, whether temporary or permanent. The Ohs grown children, Ari, Andrew, and Marissa, each have different takes on their parents and their own early lives. I made the decision not to write a point of view chapter for Viveca, because I wanted her to remain a bit of a mystery to the reader. Which version of Viveca were readers to believe? Annies? Orions? Neither? Hopefully the mystery of who Viveca is reveals itself by the storys end. Shes a contradiction of sortsboth as flawed and humane as the rest of us.
Youve written the story of Josephus Jones, an untrained but talented African-American artist killed decades earlier, into the story of the Oh familyor perhaps their story is a continuation of his. The Ohs are complex and riveting on their own, so why did you decide to open the novel beyond their experiences?
As I see it, Annie Ohs story is very much a continuation of Joe Joness. Both are artists and outsiders, both are powerless victims of immoral abusers of power. I began the novel during the first few months of Barack Obamas presidency. I kept hearing peoples assumption that having elected a half-black president, we were now a post-racial society. But the institution of slavery and the repercussions that continue today cannot be so easily dismissed. Slavery is our countrys original sin, and it plays itself out daily in American life. So by linking Annies story to Joe Joness, I was attempting to tell a broader story than one about a single family. Whether or not I succeeded in doing so is up to my readers to decide, but I was very much conscious of that aim.
Annie believes she has seen Joe (though he is long dead). Do you think she really did? How do you hope readers will interpret that?
I hope that readers will filter the possibility of Joes posthumous appearances through their own belief system. Some people believe in God; some dont. Some people believe in ghosts; others dont. But do keep in mind that two other characters in the novel experience possible sightings of the dead painter: old Gualtiero Agnello and Annies son Andrew. Hm

To honor the episode, we must have a word of the day. The word of the day is: Blazer. You can do anything you want when it's mentioned throughout this post, but I recommend drinking. Drinking makes my writing a bit easier to understand, and I recommend something culled from the Girl Drink Drunk skits on Kids in the Hall. Get those blenders set up.
Since last I wrote, Jonesy has gone but is not forgotten. He gave us so much to talk about that I am, well, a little saddened by his departure. He went out with a chicken salad sandwich rivaled by your local convenience store so c'est la vie. It would be a healthy convenience store though, probably in Berkeley. Grayson is also saddened by Chris' sudden disapparition and will smoke an edible cigar for her homey. This one is for Pebbles. Meanwhile, Edward is "all business from the waist up, as his fancy pyjamas consist of basketball shorts, a dress shirt, untucked, and a blazer. The classic blue blazer is the uniform of the fall and winter in the South for men of a certain pedigree. I am not of this pedigree and I think Edward has just been kicked out of the club. First rule of Blazer Club: Do not sleep in the blazer.
Lindsay is talking about her family and that they were a little concerned about the career choice she took, at least initially, but now are very supportive. It's an industry filled with a lot of addiction, low salaries, and exploitation… what's the worry? My Pops was awesome with my chosen field. He was very supportive and still helps me a lot with guidance. Lindsay is one of the few who could do anything but chose to cook great food for a living, because it's what she loves. Glad her family was supportive of her. She has a rocking mentor in Michelle Bernstein who is a stellar chef/restaurateur in Miami.

If not that then perhaps a little extra!
Every indication that monitors changes and trends for 2013 –2014 all agree that with the advent of increased data usage, mobile apps and smart phones, more than half of these users do just about everything in life from their mobile device. Optimizing your marketing site to reach these millions of users will surely have an increased impact towards Internet marketing trends.
Other than having the job of your dreams affording you the best of the best, the Internet has now become the best venue for marketing and promoting just about anything.
If this is your desire, then by all means hang in there and read on!
Finding Online Marketing Solutions
It's important to know and master a few good Internet marketing methods which can hopefully enable you to achieve that eluding dream of making a living on line, is being financially independent, one of those dreams? The best way to describe an Internet Marketing Solution is to provide answers and solutions to a particular need or question. Followed up with a good resource, and to make that project actually happen. Everyone is always looking for something, and in today's age that something is a solution to fulfill the answer to their search.
What kind of marketing solutions should I seek
For many it could be finances (more money) but is that the answer to our problem? Perhaps! To others it could be achieving a long awaited dream. Like building a house, or owning a business that provides useful products or services to help people. If your looking to market products and services or whatever it may be, put together a dossier, a collection of ideas, things, activities, hobbies and things you're good at.
A craft, an ability, a talent, a passion, everyone has one of these attributes. Now that you realize you're good at something, now let's put it into perspective. Writing is not something that everyone is good at, but that's the easy part because one can always find someone who can write. Personally I use a mini voice recorder. I'm always thinking and recording the next best idea that could make me a bundle. But that's me.
Perhaps you're here because you're looking for a way to promote something. The biggest question I see and read from many publications, articles, emails is mastering the ability to get more traffic to your website
An online business that is struggling, having more exposure is very important for a successful campaign. In most cases traffic is the key to success. Or could it be that you're looking to span your horizons with better training, better resources, methods and solutions, remember, whatever it is, there are solutions everywhere. Hopefully this blog can provide some insight to your quest along with helpful resources to further your knowledge.
Online marketing is about as close to being almost free than any other marketing method that's out there, thus the popularity, which is an ever increasing venue. It just makes a great deal of sense to pursue this type of activity to improve your bottom line. However, along with this pursuit comes effort and time, it also helps to enjoy web marketing since Internet marketing does require a bit of patience and constant learning.
All things are not as they seem when it comes to online marketing. It's not like your average brick and mortar business. You really have to do your research, attend a few good webinars, and purchase quality online SEO tools, such as keyword software and more importantly learn and practice these online methods so that you can rely on yourself as opposed to outsourcing these tasks which no doubt cost.
Convey Important marketing message
With so much information out there the best thing to do is offer and discover unique solutions to the keyword your targeting. Lets say your keyword is tattoo removal or tattoo proceed to tell people the best way to do this, what to do about getting those unsightly tattoos removed, where to go for that kind of service, long term consequences…benefits, if any.. etc etc.
But these are options and alternatives, in the early stages of your online marketing journey look for free resources and free quality on line information on how to market in today's world. There are many programs and online marketing sites that are free to join. Obtain a good handle on the best marketing to use, then focus on the quality of marketing. The quality of marketing will enable your site to be viewed by people who are looking for specific services and or products.
Marketing solutions and information is here for the taking, hopefully you'll benefit from them..
Learn what people want then learn to give it to them.
