Sandston woman earns Habitat home
Staff members from Richmond Metropolitan Habitat for Humanity joined with representatives from Capital One and other sponsors Oct. 23 to dedicate the newly constructed Habitat house on Algiers Street in Sandston. Chevelle Athey, a single mother of six children who works full-time for the Virginia Department of Taxation, will move into the home with her family within a few weeks.
The new home was built from the ground up using hundreds of volunteers, and was sponsored by several local businesses in addition to Capital One, including Richmond International Forest Products, The Community Foundation Serving Richmond & Central Virginia, Genworth Financial and Allianz. Among in-kind donors were James River Air Conditioning, Riverside Brick & Supply Co., Eidson Concrete, Allied Concrete, Bass Crane Service, and the Richmond Council of Garden Clubs. Gordon and Judith Angles (looking on, as Athey cuts the ribbon, above) donated the property.
The Atheys have been living in substandard conditions in a rental home that smells of sewage in the summer, and some of the children have acquired health issues. In preparation for moving into the new home, Chevelle Athey has attended mandatory homeownership and financial literacy courses as well as completing 350 hours of "sweat equity" volunteering at the Habitat ReStore and helping to build her own home.

CCC seeks donations for food pantry
Citizen Staff Reports 11/12/2014
Commonwealth Catholic Charities is in desperate need of food donations for its community food pantry that serves the region's low-income families, according to officials with the Henrico-based nonprofit.
After moving into its new location this past summer, the agency has dedicated a larger space for the pantry but the shelves are practically empty.
"As we head into the holidays and the weather turns colder, the need for food becomes even more critical, but unfortunately our cupboards are nearly bare," said Jay Brown, the agency's director for the division of housing services. "Donations of food will allow us help provide." > Read more.

I recently asked a question in the Q&A section regarding what to do about fatigue, and it made me wonder why I would experience fatigue, despite the fact that I get an optimal amount of sleep. I talked to my mother and she suggested that perhaps, scarily enough, I might have hypothyroidism, or an underactive thyroid.
Generally, the symptoms of an underactive thyroid include feeling sluggish, rund own, or depressed. The thyroid in general controls your metabolism and the speed at which you operate. According t some doctors, undiagnosed thyroid disorder may be one of the major health problems affecting women in the U.S. By age 60, approximately 17 percent of women will have a thyroid disorder but most won't realize it.
Blood tests can detect thyroid hormones, but treatments with synthetic hormones can easily make you feel better. So if you think you might be suffering from an underactive thyroid, see your doctor asap.

Fiery Furnaces' Matthew Friedberger Plans Eight-Album Solo Subscription Series
By Tom Breihan on November 12, 2010 at 6:05 p.m. EST
We will not be starved for new music from Matthew Friedberger any time soon. The Fiery Furnaces' male half is planning to release a series of eight vinyl-only albums via Thrill Jockey in 2011, in a subscription series that he's calling Solos, as Friedberger tells Entertainment Weekly. The series will start with six albums, each featuring Friedberger singing and playing a single instrument: piano, guitar, organ, double bass, drums, harp. Those albums will arrive every two months, from January to November, with two bonus albums coming at the end of the series. That's the artwork for the series up there.
The Fiery Furnaces Announce Tour
By Tom Breihan on January 7, 2010 at 1:00 p.m. EST
The Fiery Furnaces have been awfully busy lately: covering themselves, beefing with Radiohead and Beck, dropping the cameo-heavy "Even in the Rain" video. Now that all that is out of their system, they'll spend the first few months of the new year doing something slightly less headline-grabbing: playing shows.
Later this month, the Brooklyn prog-pop duo will embark on an American tour. When that's done, they'll head off to France, Spain, Portugal, and Turkey-- all before playing Pavement's ATP festival in England. We've got the full itinerary below.
Video Premiere: The Fiery Furnaces: "Even in the Rain"
By Tom Breihan on December 3, 2009 at 12:00 p.m. EST
Hopefully, the Fiery Furnaces' Matthew Friedberger has gotten his goofy "feud" with Radiohead (and Beck) out of his system by now and the Fiery Furnaces can get back to the business of being one of the most entertainingly idiosyncratic bands going. Their new music video certainly suggests as much.
"Daily Show" writer Scott Jacobson directed the clip for the I'm Going Away track "Even in the Rain", which doubles as the story of the making of the 1969 countercultural biker odyssey Easy Rider. Eleanor Friedberger plays Peter Fonda and Matthew plays Dennis Hopper, which turns out to be better casting than you'd expect. (Matthew is really funny!)
People like "Daily Show" correspondent John Oliver, Superchunk drummer/radio comedian Jon Wurster, and Sebadoh's Jason Loewenstein (who also plays with the Furnaces) make appearances.
Check it out below or over at Pitchfork.tv. Also, the Furnaces have shows coming up on both sides of the Atlantic. We've got all those dates below.
Fiery Furnaces' Matt Friedberger Writes "Virtual Response" to Beck Song
By Ryan Dombal on November 19, 2009 at 4:35 p.m. EST
So there's this weird and nonsensical semi-feud going down on the internet because the Fiery Furnaces' Matthew Friedberger insulted Radiohead and Beck. (For the whole story so far, click on this link.) It started off marginally amusing, and then Beck put out a song that may or may not be associated with the beef that turned out to be pretty cool, and we figured that would be it. But Matthew Friedberger will not let this thing go, apparently.
The singer-songwriter just put up a couple new MySpace blog posts related to the kerfuffle, including one titled "IMAGINARY RESPONSE!" which he describes as a "virtual response" to the Beck song. He goes on in a very meta, very hypothetical, very screwy, and sorta condescending way, writing circles around himself for a few paragraphs. He makes Kanye's all-caps blog apologies seem downright comprehensible.
If you dare, read the posts here and here on MySpace. We copied and pasted them below, too:
Listen: Beck's "Harry Partch" Song
By Ryan Dombal on November 19, 2009 at 10:15 a.m. EST
We're not exactly sure how much a recent Radiohead diss by the Fiery Furnaces' Matthew Friedberger inspired Beck to release a 10-minute-plus tribute to experimental composer Harry Partch, but we're glad this thing exists. And it's up on Beck's site now. (Read about the convoluted quasi-beef here.)
Beck Writes Song About Harry Partch
By Ryan Dombal on November 18, 2009 at 3:10 p.m. EST
Front page photo by Autumn de Wilde
Harry Patch was the last surviving British World War I veteran. Radiohead wrote a song about him earlier this year.
Harry Partch was an experimental music composer who worked with microtonal scales. The Fiery Furnaces' Matt Friedberger thought Radiohead wrote a song about him and got pissed about it ("How's the song? Is it 48 notes to the octave?" he scoffed), igniting one of the more confusing (and pretty dumb) band beefs in recent memory. Radiohead did not respond.
Friedberger tried to cover his fuck up with a statement that said: "Matt has not heard the Radiohead song about Harry Patch, but if he did, he is sure he wouldn't like it. No doubt Radiohead and their fans can ignore his opinion of this matter and continue with their triumphant artistic interventions. Matt would have much preferred to insult Beck but he is too afraid of Scientologists."
Now, Beck seems to actually be responding. He's putting up a new song called "Harry Partch" on Beck.com later today. According to a post on the site, the track "employs Partch's 43 tone scale, which expands conventional tonality into a broader variation of frequencies and resonances." It isn't clear yet if the song is directly related to Friedberger's remarks, or just one hell of a coincidence.

The Little Black Cow Farm Stay
The farm stay bedrooms can accommodate 2-6 people. This building has been purpose built to give an old world feel with a feeling of luxury and grandeur added to the mix. Building materials have been sourced from as far as Bega on the south coast and from historic buildings in Newcastle as well as local products. This is a building that tells you a story of how it came to be at a glance and your hosts will be only too happy to share a story or two on how it was built.
Everyone wants to take their children somewhere that allows their children to feel comfortable and the parents can relax. The Little Black Cow Farm Stay is just the place for these things to happen. From the moment of arrival , where the children are shown their very special bedroom with farm stay toys and books , to the parent's delight at the size of the rooms and the child friendly facilities the first words often uttered are it feels like home. It really does feel like a home away from home, with that added touch of luxury that our customers just love!
Each bedroom has air conditioning for year round comfort. We are also blessed with a gorgeous sunroom for those blustery winter days. Just imagine soaking up the sun in the comfort of your enclosed verandah on a cold winter's day with a glass of the valley's finest wine in your hand! In Summer, a walk along our meandering creek with a picnic lunch is a must (we have a farm stay picnic basket you can borrow!)
Family antiques grace the beautiful private lounge/dining area and make for interesting dinner conversation over a bottle of red. You might even spot the distinctive dog footprints in the old sandstock bricks around the fire place.
Your dining table overlooks lush farm land and the local creek. You have spectacular views from the rooms, verandah and dining area but nothing tops the verandah sunset from the seating area on the western side of the house! Other areas that provide little retreats are the sun room overlooking our pastures and a private courtyard/bbq area. There is also the opportunity to walk around and explore this beautiful farm after all 300acres is plenty of room to stretch the legs!
*2 bedrooms (1 king bed room and 1 queen with two single beds) *large screen tv/dvd player in each room *dvd/book shelf *kitchenette *luxurious old world lounge/dining area with spectacular ceiling*outdoor picnic table on your verandah *bbq facilities *spa bath *two bar fridges *toys in children's room *change table *high chair *complimentary Polaris jeep tour of 300 acre farm *animal feeding activities*organic vegetable garden to pick seasonal produce from*airconditioning *fire place *surprise activities for little ones such as an easel set up in the garden for them to discover.
*We have an organic vegetable garden at the farm stay which you are welcome to wander through at any time , some people even want to learn how to start their own garden and we are happy to help.
*Animal feeding happens once a day with your farm stay hosts, where children will get to feed the goats,chickens,rabbits,guinea pigs and sheep. At different times during the year we also offer goat milking as an activity (check our farm blog for details on when this is available)
*Polaris jeep tour
*We send out a questionnaire once a booking has been made so that we can tailor any activities specifically for your family and your interests.Sometimes people just want to chill out and sometimes they want to get really involved in farm life..it is up to you.
A Final Note from your farm stay hosts, David & Kim:
In answer to the most common question we get asked What will it be like we haven't stayed a farm stay?
The answer is , it will be what you make it , it will be relaxing, it will be fun, you will love that dvd player in the kids bedroom when you are longing for a sleep in after working all week, you will also love that spa bath. Your children will learn that feeling a rabbits soft fur or running after a sheep far outrates playing Nintendo .The kids will also go to bed tired and happy with a sleep that comes from using up all that wonderful energy that children have on great outdoor fun!
And for mums and dads you will get a chance to just be you and leave the world behind.
Come and find out what it's all about . It's something different for everyone but it is something pretty special and will make memories your family will talk about for years to come.

They fed rabbits, guinea pigs and chooks before their first night in front of the fire, where we toasted marshmallows. The next day we toured the farm on David's jeep, and the kids played (...)

July 15, 2013
A new inland port agreement was signed last week by Georgia Gov. Nathan Deal, the Georgia Ports Authority and Cordele Intermodal Services to create and expand international markets for regional business.
The agreement, which ensures a direct 200-mile rail route to and from GPA's Garden City Terminal in Savannah, will serve as a gateway to Southwest Georgia and adjacent regions of Florida and Alabama.
In a news release, the Georgia Ports Authority said the agreement will reduce the number of truck miles into Savannah, with the inland port being an intermodal option to an all-truck-dray to the deepwater port of Savannah for CIS' target market.
CIS is located on 40 acres, with an option to expand up to 1,200 acres in the Crisp County Industrial Park. The facility is less than one mile from Interstate 75, Georgia Highway 300 and Georgia Highway 280, and allows direct container rail service to and from the ports of Brunswick and Savannah.
CIS is providing exclusive rail access between the Port of Savannah and it's inland facility, with access to CSX and Norfolk Southern railroads.

Healthy graffiti – from the Coastal Trail in Half Moon Bay, CA.
My first healthy graffiti! Had to hop off my bike to get these two shots on PGBT/190 in Far North Dallas a few weeks ago!
Surely this is a sign of progress. Here's the first one:
And the other one (OK, spelling needs a little work) – I guess we can call this "comprehensive wellness graffiti" or perhaps "whole-body wellness graffiti"!
If you're in the DFW area and want to know the exact location, just drop me an email.

...it seems that someone at WaPo is having and "adult" moment behind the keyboard......this administration has shucked and jived it way since inception and with Barry´s aptitude at dithering and delaying and refusal to confront the true evil that exists, I pray we get through this phase of history without the major lost of life on our homeland......the "blood and treasure" we lost in the sands of the middle east should never be forgotten...

The scariest part of this article is how ´surprised´ we were by the build-up of this terrorist group. Surely there are people in DC smarter than Obama and Valjar. What the H is going on.

Thee article´s closing line: "America needs a genuine strategy in response." The bottom line: America needs a genuine president. I´m tired of Soros´ sock-puppet ValJar and her mini-me MusBrobama.

Unless you want to be kneeling on a prayer rug five times a day words will need to be replaced with bullets and bombs at some point. Hopefully Captain Zero hasn't reduced our military to an empty shell by that time.

Is it me or has the terrorist threat increased exponentially since Brennan has been the head of the CIA. It certainly seems we were caught flat footed by ISIS rise to power. Of course, we may very well have had the intelligence but Obama refused to act on it. Either way, it is evident the people who are running things in Washington seem incompetent to deal with theses barbarians. An average American off the streets could more responsibly make decisions to protect this country than the fools in Washington. There were many missed opportunities to stop ISIS before they gained so much power and no urgency from Obama to do so. Now they are richly funded and gaining members everyday. When will this president get his head out of the sand and acknowledge the threat they pose to everyone?

Hopefully we have some smart Republican strategists who are readying a campaign for 2014 and 2016 that will show all the horror that Obama has allowed to take place due to his efforts to weaken and marginalize America.It may take some ghastly pictures before the low-fos "get it", but all this horror shouldn´t "go to waste" - to borrow part of a quote from Rahm Emanuel.

What next? Our southern border seems to be an open invitation to all who want to come in - even those who would love to slaughter every last American.Perhaps ISIS warriors will enter into our country and do the same with kidnapped citizens as they did with Foley - in our own country - with cameras, clothes, weapons, etc. they secured within our country. That would be quite a video. (Any idea I could come up with "they´ve already thought of." They´re way ahead of us, unfortunately.)Our strutting, grinning, golfing, partying president already has enough blood on his hands. This scenario seems unimaginable, but certainly within the realm of possibility. What is our ´dear leader´ doing about it? Nothing much; I´m convinced he doesn´t give a damn.

Large parts of Islam are already at war with the rest of the world. Groups like ISIL, AQ, Hamas, Hezbollah, BH, the Taliban, and others are basically all the same just different allegiances. The only reason to view them as different groups is just to prioritize which ones to go after first.Its going to take real world leadership to avoid world war 3, but we got Obama. Obama just views them as groups with grievances and sympathizes with them and alienates our allies. Add in the tyrants in Russia and China who look to take advantage of the situation, and its really a bleak picture.

Our President Obola is "appalled" at the "irresponsible" behavior demonstrated by filthy, head-chopping, jihadist savages.But our President Obola sends his acolytes out to denounce those of us who believe in the United States Constitution as "potential terrorists."Just imagine how different this world would be, had President Obola´s worldview resulted in measures taken against the jihadist savages that are comparable to measures he fully supports for "defending" America against full-term baby girls trying to evade the abortionists´ death-tools.Whataguy, that President Boko Obola!

These people that come from ancient tribal cultures respect only one thing. Overwhelming power. Not niceties. Not "can´t we all just get along?". They must be crushed. Anything short of that will fail.To a small degree this lesson could be applied at home even though I would never want to see that.

#10 -- If another 9/11 or worse happens on Skippy´s shift, expect him to go full Nagin and lock himself in AF-1´s bathroom"I would posit that he´s already doing that -- except that the head he´s locking himself into is any golf course he can commandeer. The public and the press (and any potentially annoying questions, however unlikely), are barred; the few people accompanying him are fellow criminal cronies; he´s not required to say a single word; and he can take care of his dirty business (cheating, drinking, smoking this-and-that) in comparative privacy and with no consequences. And the moment he finishes a round he starts the next one.

Two suggestions:* Since terrorists rely upon anonymity, America should hit them where it really hurts: the mosques of mullahs who preach jihad. Doesn´t matter where. Destroy numerous such mosques in Muslim countries and terrorist will be stopped by the mullahs.* Think like a terrorist. Devastate the towns and cities of known terrorists.Think World War II, not Vietnam.

Sorry, but the ONLY reason the WaPo has its shorts all twisted is because this poor guy was one of their own.They & the other newspapers didn´t give a tinker´s dam about the Christian babies literally chopped in half in front of their parents, the Kurd daughters raped in front of their father´s before the father himself was beheaded and the WaPo didn´t care a whit that dozens of Yazidi women were passed around the campfire so each of these beasts could have their way with her before her head was chopped off too!Now their upset with their beloved Obama.

Forget about this excuse of a president, if ISIS isn´t stopped in Iraq, they will be stopped here.I don´t imagine that too many Americans will throw down their guns and run when this rabble hits our beaches.

If you have been hidden under a rock for the past couple of weeks, you may not have heard/seen that pixie is the new face of Batiste Dry Shampoo. The below article tells you all the details.
Dry shampoo brand Batiste has announced singer Pixie Lott as the official face of its 2014 campaign.
The Batiste 2014 Pixie Lott campaign was shot by Rankin and will include both print and TV as well as a brand new Pixie Lott variant with the design and fragrance chosen by Pixie herself.
With real celebrity style Batiste PIXIE LOTT is the must have dry shampoo for instantly refreshing style and volumising hair with a new fun, floral fragrance.
Top notes of Bergamot, fruity-ness and lemon, mixed with a floral and cedarwood middle and a base of musk, milk and sandalwood. PIXIE LOTT is a youthful blend of summery florals and warming woods for a clean, fresh scent ideal for hazy days and hazier nights.
Same as always, shake it up like a good cocktail and hold the can approximately 30cm from hair – spray lightly and evenly. Massage through hair using fingertips and then leave for a moment. Shake again in-between sprays then brush out fully and style.
Batiste PIXIE LOTT available from mid April in Boots and ASOS, and mid May in Superdrug, Asda, Sainsbury's. RRP £2.99 (200ml)
Pixie Lott has given us utter hair envy in a new campaign shot as the face of Batiste.
The pretty blonde – who was announced as the hair brand's new face a few months back – looked gorgeous in the picture, and her amazing locks proved exactly why she bagged the job.
Pixie's bleach blonde tresses had been styled in to a super glam shape, featuring plenty of body and texture for a big and sexy barnet.
Make-up wise, Pixie opted for her famous feline flicks, groomed brows and a totally flawless face – jealous!
And while she loves a bold pout, the stylish pop star mixed things up by keeping her lips bare for a fresh and natural look. She can definitely pull off both – what a pro!
If you fancy styling your own hair like Pixie's, then we've got good news. The 'Mama Do' singer has launched her own version of Batiste's dry shampoo and it's a beauty steal at just £2.99!
Pixie chose the fragrance herself, which is a fresh, summery concoction of florals and fruit – totally delicious to spritz on your hair! Spray over your strands and massage through to give your tresses an extra oomph.
We can't wait to get our mitts on this bargain buy!
Batisite PIXIE LOTT is £2.99 and available at Boots now.
Tinie Tempah, Childish Gambino and Cee Lo Green are among 14 new additions to the V Festival line-up announced today (April 22).
The event, which takes place over the weekend of August 16-17 in Hylands Park, Chelmsford and Weston Park, Staffordshire, will this year be headlined by The Killers and Justin Timberlake.
The other acts announced today are John Martin, Pixie Lott, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Vance Joy, Chloe Howl, Josh Record, Jess Glynne, Icona Pop, Howling Bells, Becky Hill and To Kill A King.
They will join previously announced artists Lily Allen, Blondie, Chic featuring Nile Rodgers, Elbow, Bastille, Rudimental, Chase & Status, Kaiser Chiefs, Manic Street Preachers, Katy B, Miles Kane, The Wailers and a host of others. For more information, visit VFestival.com.
I was delighted to see Pixie Lott can now be added to the list of famous West Ham fans from the world of pop music. I'm sure I wasn't the only supporter whose day was made by the sight of her in Claret and Blue.
She follows Katy Perry in posing in West Ham colours but while the American delighted Hammers supporters by posing in club-themed underwear, the 23-year-old singer was presented with a home shirt on BT Sport with the word 'Pixie' printed on the back.
'Over the moon with my new surprise treat,' Pixie said on Twitter afterwards, 'Thank you so much West Ham and BT.' I look forward to seeing her wearing her new top in the Bobby Moore Lower while cheering on the Hammers. And if she fancies a post/pre-game drink, I'm sure there would be a few Hammers fans in the Black Lion in Plaistow who will shout her a drink. Maybe.
Pixie was born in Bromley in Kent but moved to Brentwood in Essex aged 13, so it appears Charlton Athletic's loss has been West Ham's gain.
CHART-TOPPING singer/songwriter Pixie, 23, lives in East London with her boyfriend, model Oliver Cheshire
Not a lot of people know this but I'm very good at… remembering things. I can think back to a night in a restaurant five years ago and recall exactly who was there, what the conversation was and what I was eating. Although saying that, my short-term memory is terrible.
My best friend is… I have loads – my top best buddies are Jo, Georgie and Carla. I met them all at school when I was 13 years old. I also have another dear friend called Jo, who I've been mates with since I was 16. We all live quite near each other and spend a lot of time together. They keep me grounded.
My nickname is… Pics or Picholas. My real name is Victoria but only my mum calls me that when she's really cross with me.
The bravest thing I've ever done is… On my 21st birthday I tried to do the themepark ride at the top of the Stratosphere Hotel in Las Vegas. I'm terrified of heights so it was quite brave of me even to try, but when I got up there I was so scared that I literally crawled back inside, on my hands and knees.
This Saturday night on the Jonathan Ross Show, Jonathan welcomes a host of A-list celebrities.
Film star Liam Neeson drops by to discuss his new movie Non-Stop. The 61-year-old Taken star plays an air marshal in the action movie alongside Julianne Moore.
Hollywood royalty Goldie Hawn is also in town. She shares the experience of being with her daughter Kate Hudson when she gave birth as well as the secret behind her 30-year relationship with Kurt Russell.
Peter Andre talks about the latest addition to his family, a baby daughter, and about proposing to Emily MacDonagh.
There's also music from the singer-songwriter, Pixie Lott, who is rocking a 1960s vibe.
Tune into STV/ITV at 9.35pm on Saturday (February 1) to check out their interviews.
EXCLUSIVE: Pixie Lott says she is ready to smash her way back into the charts as she prepares to debut her brand new single on live TV on Thursday night.
The pop babe – who turns 23 this Sunday – also says her boyfriend Oliver Cheshire, 25, has made it easy for her to write and record music about love on her upcoming third album.
'It's my first time writing from the actual experience of being in a relationship. It has really helped,' the blonde beauty told Guilty Pleasures in an exclusive chat, adding she has found writing from the heart easy to do.
'I can relate to every aspect of what I'm singing – the good times and the bad times. I love writing about things that I experience. It makes songs greater,' she said.
And while Lott certainly has beauty and music talent in spades, it would seem her model boyfriend only has one of these two qualities.
'Oliver can't sing! He tries. He thinks he is a bit of a DJ and he loves music, but he's not really a singer. We've never even done karaoke. Will he be stealing my thunder? No!' she laughed.
The singer will be performing her new single – titled Nasty – on the Brits are Coming on ITV on Thursday night as the nominees for the 2014 Brit Awards are unveiled.
'It's a funky, soulful track that is very up-tempo and fresh,' she says of the single – which she also revealed she had to fight for after it was originally recorded (but ultimately rejected) by Christina Aguilera, sparking a bidding frenzy among her music contemporaries.
'A few other singers had recorded it and Christina was one of them so everyone wanted this song. When I heard other singers had done it I thought "I need to get this!" It was a difficult song to get because there are so many old-school samples on it, like James Brown, that are hard to clear copyright on. But I got it and now it is my new single.'
The Brits are Coming is on ITV 1 at 10.35pm on Thursday.
At just 22, singer-songwriter Pixie Lott has two platinum albums under her belt and is about to release a third. Oh, and she's dating a male model. So where does all the angst in her lyrics come from, wonders Liz Jones?
Pixie Lott is late. Only 40 minutes but, as she tells me when she arrives at the studio in East London, not too far from her home, she is always late. 'I will say to my friend, "We will meet here at this time," and something will happen and I get caught up and won't be there for another hour. That's my worst thing. I'm working on it. It's my New Year's resolution.'
She is wearing a very short tweed dress, buttoned up to her chin but which reveals her buttocks every time she hugs someone – the photographer, the make-up artist. Also black-rimmed spectacles, a hairband and flat patent pumps. 'This dress I designed and had made when I was in China [she is very big in China]. I chose the fabric, then told them how I wanted it to look. The patent pumps belonged to my nan.'
Pixie's maternal grandmother died not long ago. Her mum, too, has been a source of fashionable borrowing: apparently she has lots of old Vivienne Westwood 'bodies'. 'I took her vintage Chanel bag to Las Vegas, and I lost it. I was so upset: it was my favourite bag ever. I thought I was going to be in so much trouble. I phoned her up and said, "Something really bad has happened." Her heart was pounding, she thought something terrible had happened to me. So when I told her I'd lost her bag she was like, "Oh, OK, that's fine."'
PIXIE LOTT had better hope the acting jobs keep coming – as the music thing has taken a bit of a bad turn.
The singer has drifted into relative obscurity since releasing second album Young Foolish Happy in 2011.
Now her label, Mercury, have postponed her third album because bosses think it's not up to scratch.
Pixie's currently starring as a holiday camp entertainer in Beeb TV drama Inspector George Gently.
It might be good practice.

Not a convenient location
The apartments are nice and well kept in this complex with ample parking is you have multiple vehicles. A nice pool is available for family fun in the summer so I would recommend this complex. The location could be better but it depends on where your going.
As you search for your perfect apartment, please keep in mind that rental rates (including specials and discounts) and availability are very fluid in the apartment industry. Based on many factors, the rental rates (including specials and discounts) and availability can actually change not just daily, but hourly, if not even more quickly. While our advertisers do take steps to keep their information current, the rental rates or availability you may find here now at ForRent.com may not be the same as when you contact the communities.

Located close to Valen in central Vardø, the Brodtkorb wharfs consist of Saltbua, Tranbua, Bødtkersjåen and Storsjåen, the latter containing the Pomor Museum. The buildings are the oldest wharfs dating from the Pomor trade period in Finnmark, and were built between ca. 1840 and 1900 by the Brodtkorb trade house, who also owned most of the fishing factories, warehouses and packing houses located along the docks on the western side of harbour. In these buildings, Norwegian, Russian, Finnish and Sami workers were salting fish, storing stock fish, and making cod liver oil.
|The four buildings were damaged during the war, but were restored and then used as storage facilities until the museum started using the largest building, Storsjåen, as a museum in 2005. The smaller buildings are not in general use, but are sometimes open for art exhibitions and smaller museum exhibitions during the summer.

– Theodore Parker
We extend a special welcome to visitors who venture through our doors to find out what we're all about.
Our congregation includes people from many religious backgrounds and perspectives. We come together to learn, to care for one another, and to act for social justice in our community and in the world. All are welcome here, regardless of creed, color, financial circumstances, sexual or gender orientation, or wherever you may be in your religious journey.
Theodore Parker Church offers a loop system for the hard of hearing. Hearing aid wearers with a "T" (telecoil) setting can now hear the service broadcast directly through their hearing aids. Others desiring hearing assistance may check out a portable receiver and headset from one of the greeters.
Worship services take place every Sunday at 10:30 a.m. from the Sunday after Labor Day through Father's Day (the third Sunday of June). Services last approximately one hour, followed by a fellowship hour in the parish hall to which all are cordially invited.
The tradition of our congregational polity traces back to 1648 with the publication of The Cambridge Platform, a doctrinal statement for the Puritan congregations of the colonial era. As we embark on one of the most fundamental aspects of our polity, that of choosing and installing the congregation's minister, let's remind ourselves what's involved. This service will be led by the Rev. Anne Bancroft.
You can sample past sermons, both text and audio, here.
We will formally 'install' Rev. Bancropft as our new settled minister at a special service on Sunday, November 16, at 3 p.m. All are welcome. A reception in the parish hall will follow the service.
Our fall adult religious education offerings will begin with a course on "Escalating Inequality." We will explore social conditions and processes that explain the rapid increase in economic inequality during the past 35 years. The course will meet at 7 p.m. on the first Sunday of most months (six sessions total), starting October 5. More information.
Rabbi Brian Walt, a founder of Rabbis for Human Rights North America, will speak at 2 p.m. Sunday, December 7, on "The Prophetic Challenge: Breaking Silence, Speaking Truth" which addresses why Israel-Palestine is an issue that must engage all of us, despite the difficulties. A reception will follow in the parish hall. The lecture is the first in an annual series featuring theologians or clerics whose work reflects Theodore Parker's drive to bend the arc of the moral universe toward justice. View the event flyer.
Our next Saturday Open Mic will be December 6 in the parish hall. Sign-up starts at 7 p.m. and performances at 7:30. We're eclectic and family-friendly. Open Mic is free, but donations are gratefully accepted. Michael Johnson and Julie McVay are asking for volunteers to help run the TPC Open Mic, usually held on the last Saturday night of the month unless that date falls in a holiday weekend. If you are willing and able, please email Michael Johnson.
The next Meditation Group meeting will be on Thursday, December 4, from 7 to 8 p.m. at the home of the Jennifers (106 Temple Street, West Roxbury). Subsequent meetings will be on the first Thursday of the month. Please arrive a few minutes early to settle in — or join us for a cup of tea at 6:30.

BANGLADESH: Factories close as deaths rise and workers protest
By Siddique Islam | 26 April 2013
The eight-storey Rana Plaza building on the outskirts of Dhaka collapsed two days ago
Bangladesh ready-made garment (RMG) factories will stay closed over the weekend, after the death toll in Bangladesh's worst ever industrial accident climbed to around 300 and garment workers took to the streets to protest.
The Bangladesh Garment Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BGMEA) and the Bangladesh Knitwear Manufacturers and Exporters Association (BKMEA) announced the decision at a joint press conference today (26 April).
The groups say they will also compensate the families of the dead workers, provide jobs, and rehabilitate those who are unable to work.
Meanwhile, eight garment worker organisations have called for a day-long protest on Sunday at all RMG factories across the country. They are calling for the arrest of Rana Plaza owner Sohel Rahna, as well as the owners of the garment factories housed in the building.
An estimated 20,000 workers from ready-made garment (RMG) factories in Gazipur, Savar and Narayanganj yesterday (25 April) blocked five major highways in protest at the death of workers trapped in the collapsed Rana Plaza building in Savar where five garment factories were based.
The clashes left 20 people injured in the Adamjee Export Processing Zone (EPZ) area in Narayanganj, according to reports.
Several garment units in Savar and Gazipur were shuttered on Thursday, amid fears of vandalism and violence. Many garment factories in the capital Dhaka also suspended operations in a show of sympathy to the victims.
The eight-storey Rana Plaza building on the outskirts of Dhaka collapsed on Wednesday (24 April) - just five months after a fire at the Tazreen Fashion factory, not far from Savar, led to the loss of another 112 lives.
The factories based at Rana Plaza - Ether Tex, New Wave Bottoms, New Wave Style, Phantom Apparels and Phantom Tex - made low-cost garments for Western brands, including the UK's Primark fashion chain and Canadian brand Joe Fresh.
On Thursday, the government formed a five-member probe committee to investigate the building's collapse.
Sectors: Apparel, Manufacturing, Social & environmental responsibility, Sourcing
Companies: Primark

If you need a break from rewatching that new STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS trailer, then this new one for Ridley Scott's EXODUS: GODS AND KINGS is sure to cleanse (flood?) the cinematic palate. Focusing on the epic scope and absolute awe that is sure to fill the screen, this new trailer has a more energetic and pulse-pounding tone than the previous ones (which were still pretty cool as is).
"The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Pt. 1" wasn't "Catching Fire" but still made more than enough to rule the Thanksgiving day box office over "Penguins of Madagascar" and "Horrible Bosses 2."http://www.hitfix.com

Hey folks, Harry here I'm currently rewatching RETURN OF THE JEDI for some reason and I can't help but notice the people pitching a wicked fit over the OT actors not appearing in the trailer - I addressed this in my piece about THE FORCE AWAKENS, but if you've got a wicked hankering to see how the young Jedi has fared in life

Tuesday, September 25, 2012
Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt has reorganized his office's administration of programs that help crime victims.
He's also promoted his chief spokesman to oversee some of them.
Schmidt says he's creating a new Division of Crime Victims Compensation that will be overseen by Jeff Wagaman, who has served both as his main spokesman and his deputy chief of staff. Wagaman also is a former assistant state treasurer.
The new division will focus on helping crime victims obtain compensation for their losses, allowing the state's three-member Crime Victims Compensation Board to concentrate on reviewing claims.
The new division will be split off from the Division of Victims' Services. Five employees will move from that division to the new one under Wagaman.
Schmidt says he will name a new chief spokesman soon.

The closest I got was part of a will that was posted in a forum which says that her father left her $1.00 while he left the other children much more. Looks like maybe she was disinherited or something. Does anyone have any info on her?

Sports Car Leads to Cat Colony Shift
October 16, 2014 1 Comment
A version of this article appeared in the Branford Eagle, the online newspaper for Branford, Connecticut.
A single disgruntled tenant has led to the relocation of a colony of feral cats in the Lake Saltonstall area of Branford.
As we've reported before, the colony of feral cats adjacent to a commercial complex has been lovingly cared for by members of the Branford Compassion Club (BCC) for more than four years. But the large semi-circle of hay-filled huts was missing during a recent drive-by, and only a single orange cat could be seen. Read more of this post

Thanks for the answers to teh questions.
Yeah I actually have the exact same opinion as you with the EPA numbers. I've noticed the EPA numbers are lower than what people say who drive the cars, and it isn't just specific cars, this seems to be across the board. For example I heard a ton of people say that with their Honda Fit they could get 40 MPG when according to EPA the highest the Fit could get is only 35 MPG. Same thing with the Prius though, numbers are in the 50's when I hear a lot of people report MPG in the 60's or even 70's with the Prius.
Although this is just a side comment and a bit irrelevant, that video wasn't convincing at all. Why would you test a cars fossil fuel usage by driving it as fast as possible? Also the BMW has a fast engine and is meant to be driven fast, while the Prius is not, so although in one sense it is surprising that the Prius got lower MPG in the test, in another perspective it actually isn't very surprising. I'm not going to be driving at full speed with my car, that fastest I'll ever go with the car I get will be 60 miles per hour on the highway.
However the video does raise some good questions that I'm going to look into, for example they mentioned that the manufacturing of the Prius emits a lot of fossil fuels, I will look around for an actual legitimate study that says that. Also they say the Prius is complicated, something that I'm going to look into more and see if there are any legitimate statistics that confirm that the complexity of the vehicle leads to increased maintenance costs.
Yep, EPA cant be trusted whatsoever. Their tests are very unconventional, and they know it too.
The purpose of the video was NOT to show that a M3 is more economical than a Prius at a certain point, it is to show that no matter what car you get, it is ultimately up to the driver to determine it's gas mileage. ALSO, being a slow driver does not equate to being a fuel efficient driver. Never make that mistake of mixing the two up.
As for your third paragraph; the video is 100% true. Hybrids do pollute more than the production of gasoline/diesel/LPG cars. FACT. There isnt two ways about it. The way they produce it is very inefficient. And not to be a d**k, but I just told you how the Prius is more complicated; it has two engines; and not only two engines, but they're of two different types too. It is more complicated. Period. There is no two ways about it. Fact.
Totally get a Hybrid, dude! They're the stepping stones to the future!
Actually they're a sad compromise between a gasoline car and the true "stepping stone to the future"; the FULL electric car.
Yeah I understand that and that's a good point, but I'm just saying that I would prefer to see a video that compares the Prius in normal driving situations to other cars doing the same thing.
Well until I see a legitimate study that demonstrates that, I'm not going to make a judgment on the ways in which a hybrid is manufactured. There's a lot of things that are said on the internet that are wrong all the time, so it comes down to whether the claim has a good source/study to support the claim. I'll be looking for it though, the people in the video said there was a study that demonstrates that the Prius is not eco friendly in it's manufacturing, and the video was made in 2009, so I'm sure when I do the research on it I'll be able to find the study.
I don't understand what you mean when you say "And not to be a d**k" what does that have to do with anything? You're not being a d**k, and even if I thought you were being offensive (which you aren't) who cares? You're giving your opinion on the matter, and you raise important issues and problems with the hybrid. How is that a bad thing? That's a good thing that you're making me dig deeper and do more research into my car before I buy one. I see you challenging me considering buying a hybrid as a good thing, so in no way are you being a d**k at all.
Yes I understand the Prius is more complicated than the other cars I'm considering, but complication in and of itself isn't that important. What is important is whether that complication causes potential problems, for example does complication mean it is less reliable of a vehicle? Does it mean the manufacturing costs of it increase even though the output of the vehicle you get in return isn't as valuable and thus not worth it? Does it mean the repair costs of the vehicle and the regular check ups are more costly? And if so, by how much more expensive is it to keep the hybrid up to date with it's regular check ups?
Well alrighty, I think there are quite a few Prius test videos floating around. I'd find one but I'm on my phone so you're on your own for that one.
And I say "not to be a d**k" before I say anything potentially offensive now because 99.9% of the people on the internet have skin as soft as tissue paper and cant handle someone explaining something sternly; and I don't really know you so i dont know if you're that kinda guy or not :p
Prius does indeed pollute the earth more for obvious reasons. Think about it. Not only are you making a normal gasoline car, but you're taking on big heavy lithium batteries and a big elec motor; those take a lot to manufacture. But if you don't believe me, feel free to look yourself, you'll probably only get the same answer all around.
Complication does not always mean a less reliable vehicle; it simply leaves more to break. Manufacturing costs do rise; because you're making a normal gasoline car and then adding big components into it. Hybrids arent valuable at all imo. Regular repair cost an chek ups will be more; unfortunately by how much is "one of those" questions that I cant answer; it depends on the shop, where you live, how much the parts are at the time, the mood of the shop owner; it varies a lot, but it is more expensive for obvious reasons (two motors instead of one to chek up on.)
