FEATURE: Politics and the Role of Chiefs in Ghana
The issue of chiefs' involvement in partisan politics is a vexed one that will persist for as long as politics and chieftaincy continue to take centre stage in the governance of Ghana. A chief who assumes a partisan political posture cannot at the same time be said to be espousing the privileges, sanctity and nobility reserved for chiefs because the two positions are diametrically opposed.
Yet some chiefs are known to have aligned themselves unashamedly with political parties and canvassed at public functions for some parties and even sought, subtly or openly, to direct their subjects to vote for a particular political party. Has the political establishment a carrot so appealing and a stick so strong and frightening as to compel chiefs to abandon their traditional role to dabble in partisan politics?
Chiefs in Ghana as elsewhere in Africa are the embodiments of their subjects. They exercise political, religious and spiritual powers over their people. In the advent of colonial rule and the emergence of modern nation states, the colonial authorities adopted policies that progressively nibbled at the powers of chiefs and made them accomplices of colonial domination.
New policies in a similar vein were introduced and old ones strengthened by indigenous governments at independence to reduce the status of chiefs. Today in Ghana, according to Dr. Gilbert Keith Bluwey, a Research Fellow at the University of Ghana, Legon, "chiefly power as a political power or the right of traditional rulers to make and enforce decisions in their own right is clearly outside the framework of the 1992 constitution".
Dr. Bluwey in a paper titled the "Role of Traditional Rulers in the District Assembly System of Local Government", called it a policy of political exclusion where "all the deliberative, legislative and executive organs of state from the village to the town level are composed of secular functionaries to the near exclusion of traditional rulers".
The only direct role remaining for chiefs in modern governance is that which Dr. Bluwey said arises out of "the right to be informed or consulted and the right to advise".
That role, he said, is played at the Unit, Town and District Assembly levels where "a small number of the membership of these bodies are expected to be appointed by secular functionaries after consultations with both traditional rulers and recognised bodies within the area of each of such organs"
Additionally, the constitution provides in Article 255(c) that two chiefs from the Regional House of Chiefs shall belong to the Regional Co-ordinating Council, which is headed by the Regional Minister. The President of the National House of Chiefs is an automatic member of the Council of State - the highest advisory body to the President.
Is it for want of a role in government, and/or the lingering fear of the use of governmental powers in the past to make or unmake chiefs by having to gazette them that draws chiefs into active politics? Or is it the desire by some chiefs to be counted as faithful servants of governments that makes them identify with a political party in power even at the risk of weakening his authority and causing disunity among their people?
Are some chiefs simply influenced by plain opportunism fuelled by rewards from a power broker in the form of cash, influence, advantage and other favours? A chief, according to Mr. Ankpierebe Alfred Tuureh, Registrar of the Volta Regional House of Chiefs, is comparable to a religious leader. "As the Priest who actively participates in partisan politics would be unable to hold his congregation together so would a chief doing the same not inspire his subjects," he stated.
In Mr. Tuureh's opinion, a chief who dabbles in partisan politics reduces his dignity, "exposes himself to insults and practically reduces himself to a commoner". He said that even though the constitution bars chiefs from active politics, he was unsure of where the dividing line between politics and active politics should lie.
"But I will condemn a chief who would mount a public platform to solicit votes for a political party and a chief who would send his gong-gong beater to town on the eve of elections to urge his subjects to vote in a certain way," Mr. Tuureh stated.
Allegations of impropriety levelled against chiefs include: . Open association with political parties. . Declaration of personal support for political parties; . Canvassing for political parties. . Intimidating subjects who do not support the chief's favourite party. Chiefs, in playing their traditional roles, interact with government at all levels. In the process, familiarity, especially where a government has stayed in power for a long time, the sweetness of influence peddling and power brokering and perhaps sheer greed and graft get them so entangled with governments that they are unable to extricate themselves from the trappings of partisan politics.
It cannot be ruled out however that some chiefs, as humans, get involved with political parties out of a strong conviction that their origins, traditions, leaders and programmes are the best. But, however strong a chief's conviction is to push him to dabble in active politics, the law, morality and sheer logic should deter him from doing so.
For these reasons, it is dishonourable for a chief who presides over a public function attended by a party official or government dignitary to urge the audience to vote for the party to which the dignitary belongs. So also is the chief who receives a political functionary at his palace and declares his support for his guest's political party.
As for those chiefs who run politically motivated errands, the plain truth is that they have acted sacrilegiously and abdicated their stools for no chief runs errands for a subject no matter how rich or powerful that subject is.
Such chiefs have traded with the "souls" of their subjects. They are stranded and bereft of honour. The change of government would now bring home to chiefs and all Ghanaians the import of the 1992 constitutional provision that certain institutions must operate in a non-partisan manner.
There is a call now for chiefs to get involved in the district assemblies. Professor Atsu Ayee of the Political Science Department of the University of Ghana, Legon, and an expert described the call, which came from the Asantehene, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, on decentralisation, as important.
However, if chiefs are to exert any positive influence on the development of their districts, then they have to be above partisan political influence and pressures in order to remain credible in the eyes of their subjects and Ghanaians in general.

This special Albertson's has one of the largest and most eclectic selections of prepared foods in South Florida. The hummus with whole chick peas or fresh pinenuts is worth a trip in itself. It's not even in the same family as the pasty spread sold in most supermarket deli cases. Roasted chicken, stuffed derma, cholent, stews, soups, spring rolls, dozens of salads (eggplant, cucumber, vegetarian mock chopped liver), and a rabbi-certified kosher bakery will satisfy even an Orthodox grandmother. But if you want to mix your milk with your meat, they won't throw you out of the store. Two separate deli counters line an entire wall of the emporium. The non-kosher department has a full selection of meats and cheeses along with hot wings, fried chicken, half a dozen kinds of potato salad, cole slaw, and macaroni and cheese. Where else can you get a real knish for your bubbe and a ham and cheese sandwich for your Aunt Teresa?

Craft found not guilty
As a former Justice Department employee Ms. Craft has no chance of sueing the judge or attourneys. They are members of a bueracracy that will join ranks even when they are wrong.
Craft found not guilty
In Edenton North Carolina we had a case almost identical in the prosecutorial misconduct and the obvious bias of the judge. In our case which is a black shame on this state 4 people went to jail and they were held without bond for at least a year before the trial started. One of the defendents never set foot in the day care in question and was implicated only by a child who was driven around the town trying to identify a boat from which the defendent killed a baby and fed it to sharks in the river by Edenton. His only connetcion to the case was that hhis boat was parked in his driveway. No child was ever reported missing and no physical evidence of the heinous crimes ever surfaced. Law Enforcement also implied that charater witnesses were subject to intense scrutiny as conspirators. So many people were accused that the children even identified the local sheriff as a molester. At that point the children were just confused according to local law enforcement. . These confused children and their parents were started on their witch hunt when a child of an influential family was disciplined at the day care. Sounds strangely familiar doesn't it? you can watch 2 PBS specials on this case under the title Innocents Lost.

A Lose-Loose Situation: Profiling One Bad Sunday
Sunday was not a great day for Seattle sports fans. Both the Seahawks and Mariners fell to their respective opponents, doing so in a span of ten minutes around 4:00 p.m. Pacific Time. For those paying witness to either contest, the results were soul-crushing.
The Seahawks, of course, never lose. They hadn't fallen short of victory since a late-season slip-up at the hands of the Arizona Cardinals some eight months and twenty-five days ago, a loss remembered as a mere speed bump along the Super Bowl autobahn. That the Hawks had neglected to triumph just three times during the 2013 campaign certainly didn't help, either. A fan base perennially exposed to defeat for decades prior had come to anticipate winning based on the dominating successes of a few quality years. Withering under the 90-plus-degree heat of San Diego's late-summer sun was certainly unacceptable. Until it became a reality. And then it was nothing short of mind-blowing.
Before the shock of a Seahawks loss could truly set in, let alone wear off, the Mariners went down swinging, literally, as Michael Saunders struck out in the ninth inning, capping off a 4-0 undressing by the visiting Oakland A's. The outcome marked consecutive defeats for the M's, sending true-to-the-blue fanatics into full-blown panic mode. In the throes of the franchise's first legitimate playoff run in more than a decade, one loss was heartbreaking, but two in a row? And just minutes after the football team lost, too? Sharp objects required hiding.
Introducing the #12since12 Movement
Back in 2011 you were a nomad, a football fan with allegiances to no team, no players, no logo, no jerseys, nothing. Occasionally, you spent your Sundays watching games with friends, only arriving to cheer on the men in uniform who peppered the fantasy roster you sort of paid attention to. There was Marques Coleman, your wide receiver, and Marian Foster, your running back. You always knew to root against the quarterback of the Cowboys, who shared a name with that restaurant chain, and to show at least a little partiality towards the local club, the Seahawks, since that's what your buddies did.
But those Seahawks, they weren't great. They stumbled to a 7-9 finish that year and failed to make the playoffs. Why be a Seahawks fan, you thought, when it was clear the team was no good?
Richard Sherman's Media Boycott Is Stupid
Wanking motion: the act of clasping one's thumb against the forefinger in a semi-closed fist, raising the fist in the air, and moving it up and down to simulate masturbation. Usually performed as a metaphor for dismissive nonchalance towards an unrelated event of little importance.
There are any number of reasons to dislike The Seattle Times.
Maybe you loathe the fact that their editorial board seemingly fornicates with people who vehemently oppose the thought of the Sonics returning to Seattle.
Maybe you're less than enthralled with their prep sports coverage, since the deadbeat high school coach who once tutored your child submitted a half-assed misspelling of your family's weird surname to the paper, thus causing a misprint alongside your kid's six-point , two-rebound stat line in the Class 1B state consolation game a few years ago.
A Dating Playbook for the Newly-Single Russell Wilson
The Seahawks released a peculiar statement on Wednesday announcing the impending divorce of quarterback Russell Wilson from his wife, Ashton. Who knows for sure why the organization deemed this press release-worthy, but they did and now everyone seemingly has an opinion on the biggest news of the Seahawks' offseason.
It's anyone's guess as to why the Wilsons are legally separating, but certainly none of our business to speculate. Regardless of the how or the why, though, you have to respect the decision of two young adults who married fresh out of college and have made the difficult decision to move forward with their lives individually.
All things considered, we now progress into a world where Russell Wilson has become Seattle's most eligible bachelor. This is both good and bad for the Super Bowl hero, as enterprising young women across the Puget Sound will immediately begin vying for Wilson's attention (good), but may be doing so without the best intentions in mind (bad).
At the same time, if you're the signal-caller of a championship football team, how do you prepare yourself to begin dating again? As someone who has always preached that "the separation is in the preparation" – admittedly, not the best quote to pull in this time of imminent estrangement – the 25-year-old may need some help. Hence, we've created this handy dating playbook full of questions and answers.
Question 1: Is she only into me for my money?
Most of us don't have to worry about this because we're poorer than shit. But for Wilson, who stands to make millions upon millions of dollars in the coming years, this is a real problem.
Golden Tate and the Conundrum of Replaceable Players
There are more than a few dozen Golden Tates. He is a type. He is not the prototype. He is not Calvin Johnson. You can replace a Golden Tate with another Tate-type. You cannot replace a Calvin Johnson, a prototype, when only one of his kind, a six-foot-five-inch speedster with hands like cocoa butter, exists.
This is the reality of business in the National Football League. Unless you are a unique breed, amongst the elite in the sport, you are replaceable. You're an after-market iPhone charger, a USB thumb drive, a pair of Levi's 501s. We can go to the store and easily get more of you. Or in the case of your average NFL player, browse the open market for a viable successor.
Top 11: Ways You've Been Spending the Seahawks Offseason
Football season is over and baseball season has yet to begin. We're fully immersed in that special time of year when basketball and hockey take center stage, which in turn means Seattleites have nothing to do right now.
As a result, you've been productively slogging your way through other things that aren't football since the magic of Super Bowl XLVIII a distant five weeks ago. And what exactly have you been up to? Read on and we'll find out…
Michael Sam and the Seahawks
On Sunday, Feb. 9th, Missouri defensive end and 2014 NFL hopeful Michael Sam became the first Division I football player to come out as gay.
Like any announcement of this significance, the moment was met with a variety of reactions across the public spectrum. Pundits and players alike weighed in on Sam's revelation, with most initial offerings proving to be fairly positive in nature.
Seahawks linebacker (and Super Bowl MVP) Malcolm Smith was one of the first and most prominent athletes to share his take on the news, providing the following comments via Twitter:
The Greatest Moment of All
The man who jubilantly bounded along First Avenue without pants on probably summed it up best. With arms raised skyward, he hopped up and down, shuffling parallel to the southern flow of traffic as a cry of unbridled excitement sounded from his gullet. A cameraman with lens trained upon Q13 Fox News field reporter John Hopperstad, the unwitting accomplice in all this, remained frozen to a spot for fractions of a moment as the pants-less man, twig and berries in full view, coincided with the focal point of the shot. In an instant, technology recorded the half-naked hoopla in all its ballsy glory. And as millions of people the world around became privy to the triumph of the man's favorite football team, the video of the happy, bottomless Seahawks fan gained rapid exposure.
Sure, anyone could make jokes about the guy – he wasn't wearing anything from the waist down, after all. But adorned from the belly up in the wolf grey replica jersey of the team's quarterback, the message was clear: Seattle was in full celebration mode. What better way to celebrate than by removing one's clothes?
This is what we've waited for since birth. For many of us, the entirety of our respective existences has been spent anticipating a championship. As a collective whole, we've been trophy-starved in the Emerald City since 1979, when our dear departed (soon-to-return) SuperSonics took home Seattle's first and only major professional sports title. Those who actually remember that star-crossed basketball season are now 40 years of age or older. Those who haven't quite ripened to that level of maturity have never experienced the thrill of winning it all. Together, we've yearned for an event that was beyond slow to arrive.
We've been dubbed the Worst Sports City in America on multiple occasions, most recently within the past year. We've ho-hummed our way through countless losing campaigns, shrugged our shoulders repeatedly through playoff time, and rallied more passionately for a franchise that was stolen from us than for some that still exist. We've been characterized by misery and become synonymous with defeat. The trademark rain that falls upon our shoulders as we sullenly languish under murky skies has served as a metaphor for scribes who detail our athletic failures. To date, it seems, the only thing we've been good at is losing.
We've been discordant and irritable and more likely to pick fights with one another than to gather together in serendipitous solidarity. We've spent more time divided than united, embarrassed than emboldened, incensed than inspired. We've been angry and bitter, morose and beat down, hurt and disappointed. We've been the laughingstock, the butt of the joke, the doormat upon which outsiders wiped their feet. No one's had it worse, they've argued. And we've agreed. A lifetime of shortcomings has brought us to a certain Zen state of understanding when it comes to our place in this world.
We have never been the winners. Until now. Until February 2nd, 2014, Super Bowl Sunday. We were champions once, thirty-five years in our distant past, and after a multi-generational drought, we are champions again. We are that team. With those players. With that trophy. We are those fans, the ones who get to hold a parade, who get to witness the unveiling of a meaningful stadium banner, who will get peppered with TV ads for commemorative t-shirts and hats and DVDs and knick-knacks and whooziewhats. Us. It's us. We are the winners.
There are plays that will define our conquest. There are names that will forever be burned upon the tips of our tongues, historic in their significance to our victory. There are coaches and players and sounds and images and so many memories to be sorted like phone numbers in the Rolodexes of our minds. We will quantify the importance of each isolated second of our journey to relevance and qualify the legacies of those who lived that odyssey with us, who gave us reason to rejoice. All of that will be done in time. But for now, we reside in uncharted territory. For right now, we live in a haze of elation that we don't quite know how to navigate.
This isn't just about a football team. It's not about the trophy that will be inscribed with the name of our city or the accolades that will come with being designated as victors. This is about a group of people who have thirsted for this moment forever and ever and ever. It's about an entire region that has come together to be a part of the magic that surrounds winning. It's about the smiles and the fist pumps you'll get from strangers you pass at the grocery store, the reminiscent conversations you'll have with people you otherwise never would have talked to, the laughter you'll share with friends and loved ones when you think back to that time we did it, we really did it, we won our long-awaited championship.
This is what it feels like. Forgive us for removing our pants, but we needed this so bad and now we're enjoying it with all our junk hanging out because, frankly, we just don't know what else to do. We aren't used to celebrating, so we'll celebrate the only way we know how, which means some of us might be naked and some of us might be clothed. But I promise you, we will enjoy this like nothing else, absolutely nothing else, because this is that very moment we've been waiting for.
The Seahawks are Super Bowl champions. For the City of Seattle, best city on earth, and the entire Pacific Northwest, beautiful place we call home, this is our time. Enjoy it. Enjoy every minute of it.
Go Hawks.
You Don't Need the National Media's Approval, Seahawks Fans
If you're looking for a surreal experience, take a drive past the Seahawks practice facility over the next few days and feast your eyes upon the ghost town that sits upon the shores of Renton's sliver of Lake Washington. The usually bustling Virginia Mason Athletic Center is vacant, save for a handful of cars in the parking lot and a few inconspicuous employees middling around the building, everyone else having departed for a game, just a game, to be played three-thousand miles away.
For a week, at least, the Seahawks belong not to the Pacific Northwest but to the nation, one of two teams that America will choose to root for come Super Bowl Sunday. These are your Seahawks, our Seahawks, Seattle's Seahawks, certainly. But as the week wears on, a bandwagon will swell beyond capacity as onlookers the world around pick sides, opting between our squad and those other guys from Denver.
This is what we've always wanted, isn't it? For the bulk of the past three years, as the Hawks have marched towards uber-relevance and the fan base has subsequently multiplied, the 12th Man has decried the lack of regard from those deemed nationally important. There were never enough segments on the radio, features on television, or inches in our favorite publications to satisfy our Blue Fridays – and Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays, too.
The Ringless Wonders
Out of curiosity, I dialed up the San Francisco 49ers ticket office Sunday night. I wanted to see if their phones, like their franchise, would quit after five rings, too. Alas, the hotline was designed to operate much like the Niners of 2014 — and of each of the prior 19 seasons, as well — going straight to a pre-recorded message and resulting, however unfortunately, in no rings.
As many are well aware, the world has been reminded numerous times over the course of this season that the Seattle Seahawks, unlike the mighty 49ers, have amassed a total of zero rings, zero Lombardi Trophies, zero Super Bowl titles throughout their 37-year existence. Niner fans love to bring up the past in that regard, not only because the days of yore are where all of their success lies, but in turn because the past, you see, allegedly has some bearing on the present in today's NFL. The Seahawks of right now, ringless wonders that they are, are somehow inferior to all those title teams of years gone by because, you know, SCIENCE.
What to Do on Your Visit to Seattle: A Trip Guide for 49ers Fans
Are you a 49ers fan making the trip to Seattle for this Sunday's NFC Championship game? Do you know a 49ers fan coming to town to attend the game? Are you this lady, who would prefer to hang out with 49ers fans because the Seahawks faithful are "alcohol-fueled bullies"?
Whatever your situation, if you plan to support that other football team from San Francisco this week, we'd like to welcome you to the Emerald City with this comprehensive guide of things to do, places to stay, and restaurants at which to eat during your time with us. You can't say we aren't a classy bunch up here in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
Where to stay on your trip
Let's start with lodging. You bought playoff tickets on a whim from a third-party reseller, dropping more than a thousand dollars of hard-earned cash that could have paid to send your kid to college bail your kid out of jail, and now you've only begun to piece the rest of your mini-vacation together. Not to worry, friend, we've done the legwork for you. When you visit Seattle, here are three of the best local inns for you to call your temporary home.
We Really Need The Seahawks To Play A Football Game
Three days from now, the Seahawks will take to the field for the first time in two weeks and kickoff what everyone hopes and expects to be a run to the Super Bowl. They'll meet the New Orleans Saints in the friendly confines of CenturyLink Field and undoubtedly the atmosphere will be beyond raucous, beyond chaotic, bordering on anarchic, absolutely insane.
Fans will be amped up after a fortnight away from football, and the energy won't ooze from the stadium so much as it will rage like storm water through a collapsing levee. The Saints, bless their unfortunate souls, will be lucky to leave Seattle with their eardrums fully functional, their spirits still intact, and their appendages all firmly attached to their collective torsos. Beyond that, the outcome should favor the hometown eleven (or twelve, if you believe in the power of the home crowd, which most do), leaving little doubt over what will occur the following week in that very same venue: an NFC Championship bout with either the hated 49ers or the less-hated Panthers.
When Shutouts Attack: The Evolution of a Promotion Gone Awry
It was Thursday afternoon. I had just acquired a carne asada burrito from Casa D's — one of the greatest hole-in-the-wall food establishments in the entire world, for the record — and was enjoying lunch in my car while listening to sports radio. I don't usually eat meals in my car, but on this particular day I needed a break from the office. So I sat there and listened to my pals Jason Puckett and Ian Furness discuss something I half-paid attention to while downing a gigantic flour tortilla filled with wholesome goodness.
The banter ceased. A commercial break hit. I neglected to change the station. I picked up my phone and scrolled through a seemingly endless Twitter feed. A fast-talking pitchman took the airwaves in a taped advertisement for a car dealership. "Win $35,000!" he said. I continued to scroll. "If the Seahawks shut out the Giants…12 winners…no purchase necessary…" And still I scrolled. The ad came to its end.
Welcome to the Top of the World
Screw reality. This is everything we've ever wanted rolled up into a single moment in time and it's goddamn beautiful. You want Chris Petersen? You got Chris Petersen. You want Robinson Cano? You got Robinson Cano. You want the best team in the NFL? You got the best team in the NFL. If you have a wish to make, a prayer to be answered, a request you absolutely must have fulfilled? Today is your day.
You and I, we aren't conditioned for this. This is sleet in November, triple-digit temperatures in July. We aren't used to what this feels like. Happiness? Euphoria? This is Seattle. Seattle. When it comes to sports, we're the perennially disappointed, the consistently underwhelmed. We live in a snow globe where it simply rains all the time. We fall short of expectations, come up empty-handed at year's end, tank the off-season, blow the big game, flub every opportunity at every single turn, and wallow, miserably, wretchedly, in the cynical aftermath of the emotional nuking our psyches continually endure.
They've called us the Worst Sports City in America. On multiple occasions, no less. It sucks to be us, they've pointed out. And for the most part, they've been right. It has sucked to be us. We haven't done shit. We haven't won shit, we haven't achieved shit, we haven't been shit. We've been nothing. Some cities fly under the radar; we haven't been on the radar.
Cyber Monday: It All Began With Willie Bloomquist
Depending on how you look at it, this day was either supposed to belong to the Seahawks or the internet. It was Monday. Cyber Monday, the day the masses descend upon the world wide web for bargains. But Cyber Monday mattered little to those of us in the Emerald City. The Seahawks had a football game on this particular evening. That meant they were playing on Monday Night Football, arguably the biggest regular season stage in all of professional sports. They were already relegated to sharing a pseudo-holiday with online retailers. And yet their civic brethren across the sports landscape were not content to let them have even half the spotlight.
It started with the Mariners, those assholes, constantly fighting to stay relevant in a town where their irrelevance reigns supreme. They woke up on this chilly, sun-soaked morning and decided to sign Willie Bloomquist. Yes, the Willie Bloomquist. To a two-year, $5.8 million contract. It's been five years since Willie last played for his hometown Mariners and he's 36 years of age now, so why not sign him, right? Makes perfect sense. Anyway, they did it, they really did it. Ordinarily, this wouldn't register on our radar – we're talking about an aging utility player, after all – but this was no ordinary situation.

Vintage Inspired Children's Room
Well I Love Mondays is back, and if you are new to the blog, let me explain what it's all about.
On a Monday, I publish a blog post, that includes some of the things that we love at The Ana Mum Diary. I am trying to help get rid the Monday blues with beautiful things. I will virtual shop for your every need. Perhaps introducing you to something that you haven't ever seen or place you haven't been to before. You are in good hands, so sit back and grab yourself a cuppa.
Here in Nottingham I have been making plans to declutter both of the my girls bedroom, calling it an clutter busting clean! I haven't been neglecting looking online though, I have been looking at some lovely things to spring new life into children's bedrooms. Here is what I have found from Design Vintage. Continue Reading
Hotter Shoes : The Verdict (Review)
If you would like to read my review of a Hotter Shoes Store, then click HERE.
Now amongst my loves, I have a penchant for leather bags, and shoes. I like them to be good quality, and reflect me. Even in my childhood I loved good shoes, and bags. I remember pleading with my Mum, to buy me a pair of beautiful patent red shoes (with matching bag) when I must have been 7 or 8 years old, like my life depended on it. I love a slightly vintage but classic style, this is reflected I think even in the way I style my home.
I was asked if I would like to review some shoes from Hotter Shoes – Carly 'Live, Love, Comfort and Style'. It was a new range on me, but I was intrigued to find out if they really were as comfortable as they claimed. The shoes I chose, I think have the kind of vintage, classic look to them I like, and I absolutely loved them when they arrived.
I've been wanting to use the Vine app for a while for a review, so here are my shoes on the move!
I do really struggle with shoes, I'm a size 8 and it looks like my girls have both inherited my large feet, as well as a high instep. It takes me days of wearing, to break shoes in, and this always seems to result in blisters. Don't let on I told you, but when I lived at home, I used to ask my Dad, who was a size 9 to wear my shoes to break them in a little for me….
This is, hand on heart first pair of shoes that have not needed me to break them in. I wore them for the first time on Saturday night, whist partaking in a glass of Prosecco with Penny from Alexander Residence, Jen from Love Chic Living and Annie from Mammasaurus, and the next day, I was blister free, and they hadn't hurt me at all during the night. They are lovely soft leather, and have comfortable cushioning inside of them. It sounds dramatic but Hotter shoes, as a bit of a revelation to me, and I cant wait to buy another pair, I'm thinking heels or wedges next time.

Design Vintage : I Love Mondays
I have a gorgeous I Love Mondays post for you this week. It is both a online emporium and a store in Brighton. Its full to the brim with vintage, furniture and accessories, together with modern pieces called Design Vintage.
Its the kind of site that I could really pore over, and looks like a must visit, if you are a lover of vintage and are ever down to Brighton.
I have three of my favourite picks I want to show you. First up are these Industrial French Lockers :
What a gorgeous colour they are , the handles are fully working and the paint is original too! Wouldn't these look amazing in a hallway, so easy to keep everything in its place. Or even in a bedroom, they would really give a great vintage twist to a room. They are priced at £575
Or how about this vintage solid Oak French champagne rack. They originate from the Champagne houses of France where they are used to store the champagne. Traditionally, bottles are stored at this angle and turned on a daily basis ('Riddling') as part of the champagne process.
If I had any spare space in my Kitchen I would buy these in a flash, at £195 I think they are great value. Design Vintage will even cut the rack to size for you if you would like it smaller.
And finally how about this
French Dolly Tubs were used as a wash tub. They suggest that these are now great used as planters in the garden. I've got to agree a standard would look amazing, especially one that had that some of the greyish blue hue to it, like a lavender, or an olive tree. They would look beautiful.
So what do you think, would you like to add some vintage charm to your house?
Thank you for reading

Church. Life.
For many people today the church and life don't seem to have much connection. In fact, many people would even say that the church is irrelevant to life. But what if we've misunderstood what the church really is and really is about? What if we realized that the church isn't just a building or a meeting but that it is people and it was created by God to make our lives more meaningful? Join us as we discover how the church and life go hand in hand.

Press Release
Worl' Data More Than Doubling Every Two Years—Driving Big Data Opportunity, New IT Roles
News Summary:
- New IDC Digital Universe study, "Extracting Value from Chaos" 1 (sponsored by EMC) finds world's data is doubling every two yearsgrowing faster than Moore's Law.
- Study forecasts 1.8 zettabytes (1.8 trillion gigabytes) will be created and replicated in 2011.
- The Digital Universeand "Big Data"are driving transformational societal, technological, scientific, and economic changes.
- "Information taming" technologies are driving down the cost of creating, capturing, managing and storing informationone-sixth the cost in 2011 versus 2005.
- Enterprise investment in the digital universe has increased 50%, to $4 trillion (USD), since 2005.
Full Story:
28 June 2011EMC Corporation today announced results of the EMC-sponsored IDC Digital Universe study, "Extracting Value from Chaos"which found the world's information is more than doubling every two yearswith a colossal 1.8 zettabytes to be created and replicated in 2011, which is growing faster than Moore's Law.
To view the multimedia version of this release visit: http://www.emc.com/about/news/press/2011/20110628-01.htm
The study's fifth anniversary, measuring and forecasting the amount of digital information created and copied annuallyanalysing the implications for individuals, enterprises, and IT professionalshas huge economical, social and technology implications for big data and other opportunities.
In terms of sheer volume, 1.8 zettabytes of data is equivalent to:
- Every person in the United States tweeting 3 tweets per minute for 26,976 years nonstop
- Every person in the world having over 215 million high-resolution MRI scans per day
- Over 200 billion HD movies (each 2 hours in length)would take 1 person 47 million years to watch every movie 24x7
- The amount of information needed to fill 57.5 billion 32GB Apple iPads. With that many iPads we could:
- Create a wall of iPads, 4,005-miles long and 61-feet high extending from Anchorage, Alaska to Miami, Florida.
- Build the Great iPad Wall of Chinaat twice the average height of the original
- Build a 20-foot high wall around South America
- Cover 86% of Mexico City
- Build a mountain 25-times higher than Mt. Fuji
The forces behind this relentless growth are driven by technology and money. New "information taming" technologies are driving the cost of creating, capturing, managing and storing information down to one-sixth of what it was in 2005. Additionally, since 2005 annual enterprise investments in the Digital Universecloud, hardware, software, services, and staff to create, manage, store and generate revenue from the informationhave increased 50% to $4 trillion (USD).
Massive Server, Data Management and File Growth Not Keeping Pace with Staffing: IDC notes that the skills, experience, and resources to manage the deluge of data and resources simply isn't keeping pace with all areas of growth. Over the next decade (by 2020), IT departments worldwide will experience:
- 10X the number of servers (virtual and physical).
- 50X the amount of information to be managed.
- 75X the number of files or containers that encapsulate the information in the digital universe, which is growing even faster than the information itself as more and more embedded systems, such as sensors in clothing, in bridges, or medical devices.
- 1.5X the number of IT professionals available to manage it all.
- Cloud Computing Cost and Operational Efficiency: While cloud computing accounts for less than 2% of IT spending today, IDC estimates that by 2015 nearly 20% of the information will be "touched" by cloud computing service providers meaning that somewhere in a byte's journey from originator to disposal it will be stored or processed in a cloud. Perhaps as much as 10% will be maintained in a cloud.
- The Digital Shadow Has a Mind of Its Own: The amount of information individuals create themselveswriting documents, taking pictures, downloading music, etc.is far less than the amount of information being created about them in the digital universe.
- The Liability and Responsibility is with Enterprises: While 75% of the information in the digital universe is generated by individuals, enterprises have some liability for 80% of information in the digital universe at some point in its digital life.
"The chaotic volume of information that continues growing relentlessly presents an endless amount of opportunitydriving transformational societal, technological, scientific, and economic changes," said Jeremy Burton, Chief Marketing Officer, EMC Corporation. "Big Data is forcing change in the way businesses manage and extract value from their most important asset – information. EMC is at an ideal crossroad to help our customersfrom the world's largest enterprises to governments to small businessesexploit the hidden value in the digital universe as they continue on their journey to the cloud."
- New capture, search, discovery, and analysis tools can help organisations gain insights from their unstructured data, which accounts for more than 90% of the digital universe. These tools can create data about data automatically, much like facial recognition routines that help tag Facebook photos. Data about data, or metadata, is growing twice as fast as the digital universe as a whole.
- Business intelligence tools increasingly are dealing with real-time data, whether it's charging auto insurance premiums based on where people drive, routing power through the intelligent grid, or changing marketing messages on the fly based on social networking responses.
- New storage management tools are available to cut the costs of the part of the digital universe we store, such as de-duplication, auto-tiering and virtualisation, as well as to help us decide what exactly to store, as in content management solutions.
- New security practices and tools can help enterprises identify the information that needs to be secured and at what level of security, and then do so from specific threat protection devices and software to fraud management systems and reputation protection services.
- Cloud computing solutions – both public and private and a combination of the two known as hybrid – provide enterprises with new levels of economies of scale, agility, and flexibility, compared to traditional IT environments. Long term this will be a key tool for dealing with the complexity of the digital universe.
- Cloud computing is enabling the consumption of IT-as-a-Service. Couple that with the Big Data phenomenon, and organisations increasingly will be motivated to consume IT as an external service vs. internal infrastructure investments.
- The growth of the digital universe continues to outpace the growth of storage capacity. But keep in mind that a gigabyte of stored content can generate a petabyte or more of transient data that we typically don't store (e.g., digital TV signals we watch but don't record, voice calls that are made digital in the network backbone for the duration of a call).
- Less than a third of the information in the digital universe can be said to have at least minimal security or protection; only about half the information that should be protected is protected.

How a Single Tweet Launched A Cloud for Climbing

By New Times
Pete sells out, and then some: Since opening his own Internet kiosk (www.eelpie.com), the Who's songwriter-guitarist has opened the vaults and introduced American shoppers to the value of buying music by the pound (conversion rates being what they are). Earlier in the year, he finally unloaded the Lifehousebaggage he's been carrying around for some 30 years -- six discs in all, including a BBC-produced radio play, remasters and remixes, plus some classical gas that's not so embarrassing after all. He's also hawking a three-disc boxed set comprising love songs to Meher Baba; autographed first editions of Horse's Neck, with the signature being the only thing worth the cost; and assorted errata hoarded in case a worldwide garage sale ever broke out -- what luck, indeed. Now, at year's and century's end, comes even more product ripe for giving to that discriminating Who fan (is there such a thing anymore?) on the holiday shopping list: three double-disc live albums recorded, respectively, in 1996, 1998, and this year. Add to that the Who live two-fer being sold Web-only (for a reason, too, in case you're considering making the buy), and Townshend's released in one year more albums than Stevie Ray Vaughan since his death in 1990. Little wonder Rolling Stoneincluded the codger on its list of "People of the Year"; the 55-year-old hasn't moved this much product in decades.
Surprisingly, most of it's worth the import prices: The Empiredisc -- a career-spanning best-of that dates all the way back to "Anyway Anyhow Anywhere" (introduced as "my Roger Daltrey song") and "Substitute" and includes two songs from 1993's Psychoderelict (his last studio offering) -- proves Townshend more than an old fart vying for a second wind. With a four-piece band in tow (plus rapper Hame, doing his best at doing his worst), Townshend comes across like a man reborn, free of expectation and unburdened by legacy. For every safe rendition of an old standby ("Let My Love Open the Door," "You Better You Bet," "Pinball Wizard" and "Behind Blue Eyes," the last of which he still insists "may be the best thing I've ever written"), there are plenty of raves and faves he stretches out 'til they snap and shatter. "Who Are You" has been shined up and synthed up 'til it sounds utterly, astonishingly brand-new; Hame's freestyling never gets in the way and, in fact, sounds almost appropriate -- the drunken ramblings of a man standing too long in the freezing rain with no place to go. And "Magic Bus," once an insufferable toss-off, comes to life in this setting: It has been deconstructed into a barrage of riffs and grunts and moans, a stop-and-start rocker smaller than its Live at Leedscounterpart but infinitely more fun and, yeah, more listenable.
The great thing about Townshend is his willingness (or is it desire?) to play the back catalogue without pandering to the classic-rock fetishists who shout out requests, only to be dispensed with like comedy-club hecklers. He reinvents himself and his oldies without coming across as desperate; he doesn't need to be liked, only appreciated. And so he chats a little, wanders a lot, and never everplays the ancient shit as if it's a chore; he's no Ray Davies, wheeling out "You Really Got Me" from the old-folks' home. You get the sense that he needs to keep playing these songs, tweaking them to fit his mood or the setting; you get the feeling he'd perform them in his basement, for himself, if no one were left who was willing to fork over the price of admission. (The Lifehousebox contains myriad reconstructed versions of venerable classics, meaning he's never just written a song and let it go.) So he tones down "Mary Anne With the Shaky Hands," duets with singer-guitarist Tracey Langran on a sultry "Acid Queen," and sneers through an extended "Won't Get Fooled Again" that lasts almost 13 minutes and never runs out of gas, not even when it devolves into nothing but feedback and harmonica wheezing. And middle age has softened Townshend just a little, if a little too much at times: "The Kids Are Alright" meanders long enough to allow him to ask, "What can ever be wrong with kids?! Nothing wrong with my kids! How about your kids? In the year 2000, the kids are all right!" It's silly but forgivable: The man who hoped to die before he got old still believes, even if it's in someone else's generation.
But the Sadler's Wellstwo-fer really qualifies as -- go on, say it -- Townshend's modern masterpiece. A run-through of songs intended for Lifehouse (which later turned into Who's Nextand bits of Who Are You), with the addition of one brand-new song titled "Can You Help the One You Really Love?", the disc proves Townshend need not sink into concept-album quicksand to make a Statement. Stripped of Lifehouse's incomprehensible story about a power grid that connects the world through music made from emotional radiation . . . uh . . . or something, it's nothing more than a two-hour trip through mid-period Who, back when the band proved it possible to reach the back of the arena with nothing more than an acoustic guitar.
