Last year, we celebrated the season of Thanksgiving (which lasts about a nanosecond, if the evergreen-wielding, retail-shopping crazies get their way) by sharing with you about all the people and things that give our life sweetness and spice. And a few dozen of you also climbed on the gratefulness bandwagon by posting links to your blogs, where you, too, indulged in a little reverie about your loved ones.
Well, gratefulness being one of those things that grows the more you share it, let the thankful dishing begin! Except this time, we decided to turn the microphone, so to speak, a different direction. We asked our families what they were grateful for. Today, we hear from Community Editor Scott Hansen's tribe, and Creative Director Megan Dougherty's DDs.
The Hansen Kids
Mimi, 15
* Air.
* Family. "No matter how much we fight, or yell, or are just angry at each other in general, when we get along and can watch a movie all together with popcorn, it's a nice time. And most of the time we are apart. Whether one of us is at College, or the other is at their part time job, we are hardly all here. But that's okay. At the end of the day, we are all in our beds, sleeping in the same house."
* Friends. "Yeah. I wouldn't be doing what I do without my friends. Especially the closest ones. My best friends are really who keep me going. Whenever I get bullied or teased for how I dress or act, they are always the ones to throw me back on the horse."
* Dresses. "As previously stated, I get a little flak for my flamboyant clothing. But, I love it still. It's what makes me happy. And I won't let anyone take that from me."
* Food. "Cake is best."
Max, 16
And in no particular order, the list is as follows:
* Not having to take the bus five days a week.
* Not having school on my birthday. Ever.
* Great companions. ("Yes, that includes all of my family.")
* Food.
* Having parents and a brother who actually know things so they can help me with my school.
Noel, 19
1. Generous student loans
2. An economy on the road to recovery. ("For now. Fiscal cliff is still looming off in the distance.")
3. My job
4. Actually having enough money to be able to purchase things
5. Having a loving, caring family
The Dougherty Girls
Says Megan, "My children are non-stop talkers and will regale you with their opinions on everything all day long, but as soon as you ask them a pointed question, they tend to clam up. Here's what I managed to get out of them."
Harper, 9
* Summer – because there's no school and I can watch more TV.
* TV – because there's funny stuff on it.
* Art utensils – because I like to make stuff.
* Christmas – because I get presents.
* Dr. Pepper – because it's yummy.
Devon, 5
* All of my friends, because they are good to me and I am good to them.
* Science. I love the show Beakman's World and it is all about science and so I love science.
* Chocolate – because it is yummy.
* Monster High. (no reason given, just an exasperated look that was meant, I believe, to say, "Isn't it obvious?")
* Cats – because they are my favorite animal.
* Dogs – because they are cute.
* Miss Andi (her beloved daycare provider) – because she has the best daycare in the whole entire world.
(There was apparently a number 8, but she declared it a vital secret and would not reveal it.)
Your turn?
Now, howzabout keeping us company this week for Oh Thank Cuteness? We'll be posting more GenQ staff family cuteness on Wednesday and Friday, and we'd LOVE to have you post to your blogs–or even to Facebook, if you are blog-less–about what makes your world cute. Puppies, children (your own or someone else's), the squirrel in your backyard, it's all up for grabs! Or see if you can tease a few tidbits of thanks out of your little ones' mouths. And don't forget the pics!
We're building our link list of friends posting their own versions of Oh Thank Cuteness. If you haven't had enough of the joy here, check out what they are doing. After all, we are all so much more than our quilting and sewing. And if you do participate, grab our button and add your blog address below so we can all share in each other's cuteness!

A Dangerous Woman. The Graphic Biography of Emma Goldman
By: Sharon Rudahl
116 pages, black and white, softcover
The New Press, 2007
OK, so this isn't exactly new, but I just finished reading it and wanted to mention it here at Sekventiellt. I have been putting of doing reviews the last couple of months, due to an extremely tight writing schedule, but I felt this deserved at least a short review. Emma Goldman is of course the world-famous activist, feminist, anarchist and there has been numerous books written about her and her life. What makes this different is that is was not only done as a comic, but that it was done by another Jewish activist and feminist: Sharon Rudahl. Rudahl is well read on Goldman, that is evident, but it is the fervor with which she so obviously agrees with and perhaps even identifies with Goldman that shines through and makes this a powerful read. Rudahl has been around since the Underground era, being one of the original editors for the groundbreaking Wimmen's Comix. This shows in the art which at first feels a bit too cramped and overworked, but soon marries beautifully with the content as you get engrossed in the story. In the end, this is a book you do not want to put down before it is finished, and this is as much due to the story telling abilities of Rudahl as to the interesting life Goldman lived .

Carlson: Lessons from St. Maries teachers
Chris Carlson
Carlson Chronicles
Those supporting repeal of the Luna/Otter Educational "Reform" package in general, and the Idaho Education Association, in particular, might want to take note of comments and attitudes gleaned from a recent sit down with three teachers at St. Maries High School.
The comments not surprisingly reflected a similar earlier sit down with a teacher in the Challis School District.
All four said without hesitation they intended to vote to repeal the three items on the ballot in November. Like many they are offended by the lack of due process alone. In their eyes it was a betrayal of trust for Governor Otter and State Superintendent Luna to have campaigned for re-election in 2010 and not to have said word one to any involved in education about what they were planning to introduce a scant seven weeks later when the 2011 Legislature convened.
To them it was deliberately deceitful, reflecting a lack of trust by these officeholders in teachers' ability to thoughtfully analyze and provide valuable input into ideas for reform. To have it steamrolled through a compliant state legislature was just adding insult to injury. Invoking the "emergency clause" to force early implementation before all the unintended consequences had been worked out was just the frosting on the cake. Continue Reading »Share on Facebook

uniquely experienced and qualified with Smith & Wesson firearms
David R. Chicoine (the author of Smith & Wesson Sixguns of the Old West) long time recognized expert in this field where Smith & Wesson has been a shop specialty since 1974.
The Smith & Wesson factory has been referring its customers with older and antique S&W's to David since about 1976. In recent years, David has been joined in the gunsmithing business by his son, David T. Chicoine whose specialities are S&W Hand Ejectors and other post-1898 classic firearms (the .44 Hand Ejector shown above and the Registered Magnum shown lower in this page are some of David T's work.)
Offering you expert repairs, refinishing and restoration work on all S&Ws from the .22 caliber Model No. 1, up through the largest modern magnums and including most of their semi-automatic pistols.
Some of the many services we offer for Smith & Wesson handguns are. . .
A little background:
David R. Chicoine has been working on Smith & Wesson revolvers since he was a teenager in the 1960s when he began tinkering with police friend's revolvers in New York. Later, starting in about 1974 in southern NY, operating as Liberty Antique Sixgun Parts he has kept an inventory of obsolete-antique Smith & Wesson parts and offered gunsmithing services for antique S&W's. David then moved his family to southeastern Connecticut and operated as Liberty Antique Gunworks offering repair serevices for all older firearms for several years. Moving to Maine in 1983, he spent the next 17 years gunsmithing in northeastern Maine on the Atlantic coast, we have been in sunny North Carolina since 2000. David is the author of five books: Gunsmithing Guns of the Old West (now in its 2nd edition), Smith & Wesson Sixguns of the Old West, Guns of the New West, Gun Digest Manual of Antique Firearms Assembly/Disassembly. David's articles are regularly featured in American Gunsmith Magazine as well as in Dixie Gun Works' Blackpowder Annual and my articles have appeared in Man at Arms, Shotgun News, Winchester Collectors Journal, Smith & Wesson Collectors Journal and Single Shot Exchange. David is also a regular contibuting editor to the American Rifleman.
David T. Chicoine graduated from high school in Eastport, Maine where he spent time apprenticing in his dad's gun shop as well as working in the fishing industry. David is an experienced auto mechanic, a skilled model maker and a USAF veteran. David has recently returned to the field of gunsmithing which he loves, his specialty is more modern S&W's and Colts (post-1898), classic sporting rifles and post 1898 firearms in general, including his special pets; WW1 and WW2 military weapons. The beautiful .44 Hand Ejector and .357 Registered Magnum S&W shown above and another below are examples of David's restoration work.

Asserting the
travelers, flight crew members, and law enforcement officers who
removed six Muslim imams from a November 2006 flight were acting in
the best interests of national security, officials with US Airways
and Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport want a jury trial in
the civil rights lawsuit brought forth by the imams.
As ANN reported, the six
Muslim imams, or scholars, were removed from a US Airways flight to
Phoenix after passengers and crewmembers expressed concern over
what they called the men's suspicious behavior -- which allegedly
included asking for seatbelt extensions, although the men didn't
need them, and failure to take their assigned seats.
The six men, who were returning home from an Islamic clerics
conference, also criticized the war in Iraq and President Bush, and
spoke about al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden while in the terminal and
onboard the plane, according to passenger complaints.
The Washington Times reports the airline and the Minneapolis
Airports Commission also want immunity for those who stood up, and
demanded the imams be removed from the flight -- citing a "John Doe" law passed by
Congress last year, that protects those who report persons acting
suspiciously to authorities.
A subsequent discrimination lawsuit, filed last year by the six
men, was amended December 14 to include the six airport police
officers who responded to the gate as defendants.
"We believe the police officers acted appropriately and that it
is important that airports across the nation be able to take action
when there is a reasonable belief that travelers could be
threatened," said Minneapolis Airports Commission spokesman Patrick
Hogan. "In this case, there were travelers and flight crew members
who raised concerns, and we worked with federal authorities who
interviewed the imams.
"We believe the process worked as it should to protect the
traveling public," Hogan added.
In its response to the amended suit, US Airways rebutted the
over 200 complaints brought forth by the Muslims against the
airline, and denied "that it engaged in any unlawful discrimination
or violated any federal or state law."
The carrier also demanded the imams produce "strict proof" on 97
of those claims before a jury -- and stood behind the captain on
the flight, John Wood, who asked for the imams to be removed from
his plane. US Airways said Wood, who acted on information provided
by the cabin crew, suspected the imams "may have posed a risk to
the security of the flight," and the "decision to deny
transportation was based upon the legitimate, non-discriminatory
business purpose of ensuring flight safety," the airline said.
The imams assert they were placed under arrest -- which they
"did not consent to" -- saying the police officers' "acts and
conducts were solely motivated by their intent to discriminate
against [the imams] based on their race, color, religion,
US District Judge Ann Montgomery has not ruled whether she will
hear the case with a jury present. She denied motions to dismiss
the suit in November.

A collection of relevant and timely media clips and resources.
Posted on May 16, 2013
The National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA) honored California attorney C.D. "Chuck" Michel with the 2013 NRA Defender of Justice Award. This award recognizes outstanding efforts by attorneys who defend the right to keep and bear arms, and particularly recognizes attorneys who make a significant contribution to those efforts pro bono. Chuck received the prestigious award at the NRA's 2013 annual meetings in Houston, Texas. It recognizes him for his extensive work, and particularly pro bono work, defending the right to keep and bear arms.
"For years, Chuck Michel has played a critical role in defending the rights of California gun owners and hunters," said Chris W. Cox, executive director of NRA-ILA. "Whether it's bringing major Second Amendment litigation in federal court, defending individual gun owners caught up in California's maze of laws and regulations, or preserving hunters' rights against animal extremists, Californians owe a debt of gratitude for his efforts."
Chuck is the Senior Counsel at Michel & Associates. His practice focuses on civil litigation, including firearms law, business litigation, labor and employment law disputes, civil rights advocacy, land use and environmental law. He has over twenty years of experience representing the NRA and California Rifle & Pistol Association (CRPA), as well as firearm manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers and gun owners.
Over the last twenty years, Chuck has generously contributed thousands of hours of his time and the time of the team of civil rights lawyers employed at his law firm, worth millions of dollars, to Second Amendment causes and on behalf of gun owners.
Chuck is also the author of California Gun Laws: A Guide to State and Federal Firearm Regulations, and is a frequent lecturer to community groups and organizations on Second Amendment issues. He has represented many clients in high-profile cases that garnered significant state and national media attention. He has appeared as a spokesperson for the NRA, CRPA and other associations, and for individual clients on dozens of television and radio interviews and in thousands of newspaper articles. He has been profiled in recognition of his work in multiple periodicals, and has published several articles and editorials in the Los Angeles Times, the Los Angeles Daily Journal and several other state and national newspapers. Chuck has also taught law as an Adjunct Professor at Chapman University School of Law in Orange, California, where he teaches classes in Firearms Law and Law Practice Management.
The NRA is proud to have Michel & Associates working on behalf of our right to keep and bear arms.
Some law firms, particularly in Los Angeles and San Francisco, support anti-gun-owner efforts to undermine your right to keep and bear arms by providing pro bono legal services to the gun ban lobby and to politicians who would deprive you of our Second Amendment rights. The anti-Second Amendment efforts by these law firms are effectively subsidized through the legal fees paid by their business clients. Shop for your legal service provider carefully so you don't inadvertently subsidize the gun ban lobby!

The Hawaiʻi Visitors and Convention Bureau (HVCB) recognizes the use of the ʻokina [ʻ] or glottal stop, one of the eight consonants of the (modern) Hawaiian language; and the kahakō [ā] or macron (e.g., in place names of Hawai'i such as Lānaʻi). However, HVCB respects the names of organizations and businesses.

For Immediate ReleaseFebruary 25, 2013
HONOLULU – The Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau (HVCB) has launched a monthlong marketing campaign in two of its largest East Coast markets – New York and Chicago – with the primary goal of increasing visitor arrivals to Hawaii from those key areas over the next several months. Similar to its market saturation blitzes initiated in 2009, the HVCB's multi-media program comes following the Hawaii Tourism Authority's (HTA) release of $500,000 in special funds dedicated to growing traffic from the East Coast, an important source of first-time visitors for the state.
"While Hawaii enjoyed record numbers for visitor arrivals and spending last year, our forecast for 2013 indicates that there is still opportunity for growth, particularly out of the U.S. East," said Mike McCartney, president and CEO of the HTA. "We are committed to help stimulate travel demand from these metro areas and support the success of new and existing flights from the U.S. East market. These blitzes are also a great way to keep the Hawaiian Islands top of mind with our friends on the East Coast and share with them our unique people, place and culture."
Under the theme Living in the Moment, HVCB in coordination with industry partners have launched this monthlong marketing program from February 18 to March 17 to elevate the Hawaiian Islands' position as America's favorite tropical destination for romance, family fun, outdoor adventure, culture and arts, health and wellness, cuisine, and golf. The multifaceted campaign presents the unique attributes that make Hawaii one of the world's top exotic destinations through print, broadcast, and online advertising, social media engagement, and public relations outreach.
"This effort is more than just a branding campaign to raise awareness of the Hawaiian Islands. It's an initiative to increase demand in these key markets to more sustainable levels that will support current service from the New York area and increase air service from Chicago," said John Monahan, HVCB's president and CEO. "We are aware that carriers serving the islands from those markets have lowered fares to attract passengers. However, we also know that unprofitable routes don't last very long, nor do routes where airfares have risen to levels that turn away demand among potential travelers. By launching this campaign, we're being proactive in our efforts to support these important routes and get more travelers to the islands from the East Coast."
HVCB's blitz puts an emphasis on a different island each week, with Oahu kicking off the campaign, followed by Maui, Hawaii Island, and Kauai. Using network television in each market, the program highlights include "Wake Up to Hawaii" and "5-Day Hawaii Weather Forecast" integrations during local weather broadcasts, a "Hawaii Entertainment Guide" featuring four custom, 30-second entertainment units (one for each island) airing in late night slots, and 30-second television brand spots on stations in New York and Chicago with partner call-to-action.
Digital initiatives include homepage "takeovers," Hawaii-branded weather "page skins" featuring rich video highlighting the islands, and custom Twitter messaging. Public relations will focus on intensifying media relations outreach and editorial placements in those markets during the campaign period.

Kneecap dislocation
Kneecap dislocation
Kneecap dislocation occurs when the triangle-shaped bone covering the knee (patella) moves or slides out of place. The problem usually occurs toward the outside of the leg.
Alternative Names
Dislocation - kneecap; Patellar dislocation or instability
Kneecap (patella) dislocation is often seen in women. It usually occurs after a sudden change in direction when your leg is planted. This puts your kneecap under stress.
Dislocation may also occur as a direct result of injury. When the kneecap is dislocated, it can slip sideways and around to the outside of the knee.
- Knee appears to be deformed
- Knee is bent and cannot straighten
- Kneecap (patella) dislocates to the outside of the knee
- Knee pain and tenderness
- Knee swelling
- "Sloppy" kneecap -- you can move the kneecap too much from right to left (hypermobile patella)
The first few times this occurs, you will feel pain and be unable to walk. However, if dislocations continue to occur and are untreated, you may feel less pain and have less immediate disability. This is not a reason to avoid treatment. Kneecap dislocation damages your knee joint.
First Aid
If you can, straighten out the knee. If it is stuck and painful to move, stabilize (splint) the knee and get medical attention.
Your health care provider will examine the knee, which could confirm that the kneecap is dislocated.
A knee x-ray and, sometimes, MRIs should be done to make sure that the dislocation did not cause a bone to break or cartilage to be damaged. If tests show that you have no such damage, your knee will be placed into an immobilizer or cast to prevent you from moving it for several weeks (usually about 3 weeks).
After this time, physical therapy can help build back your muscle strength and improve the knee's range of motion.
If the knee remains unstable, you may need surgery to stabilize the kneecap. This may be done using arthroscopic or open surgery.
Call immediately for emergency medical assistance if
Call your health care provider if you injure your knee and have symptoms of dislocation.
Call your health care provider if you are being treated for a dislocated knee and you notice:
- Increased instability in your knee
- Pain or swelling return after they went away
- Your injury does not appear to be getting better with time
Also call if you re-injure your knee.
Use proper techniques when exercising or playing sports. Keep your knee strong and flexible.
Some cases of knee dislocation may not be preventable, especially if physical factors make you more likely to dislocate your knee.

March 12 was the deadline for considering legislation introduced in the Senate and approved by committee. In the past, many innovative approaches and reforms were simply not heard. Now that Republicans have the majority in the upper chamber, those bills are getting the debate and consideration they deserve, and as a result, our key agenda items for this session now have an excellent chance of reaching the governor's desk.
Among the key pieces of legislation approved by the full Senate is SB 646, creating the State Office of Accountability and Innovation. This office represents a step toward greater efficiency in state government. It would conduct regular performance audits of agencies, recommend best practices to improve efficiencies in government, review the effectiveness of tax incentives and bring new innovations to government. This office would actually pay for itself by identifying cost savings in government.
Senate Bill 1111, by Senator Clark Jolley, the Educational Accountability Reform Act, will ensure the integrity of test data, giving us a true indication of how well are students are doing in core subjects. The measure calls for testing oversight to be moved to an impartial third party. With objective data, we can do a much better job of helping students master the material necessary for success in school and in life.
Senate bill 834, by Senator John Ford, will remove several unfunded mandates and give local school districts greater control over how state appropriated dollars are used. Majority Floor Leader Todd Lamb authored Senate Bill 609, a measure that reforms the workers compensation courts, which are currently in great need of overhaul.
The full Senate also approved Senate Bill 4 by Senator Ford, which is voter identification legislation to ensure clean and fair elections. A recent story by the Wall Street Journal supports the argument we've made for this important reform. This past year, states like Indiana and Georgia which have the strictest voter ID requirements in the country actually saw increases in voter turnout. No one was disenfranchised, and voters had confidence that their ballot would not be cancelled out by someone attempted to commit voter fraud.
Senate Bill 899 would revoke state retirement benefits from state or county officials convicted of felonies. It is an insult to taxpayers when an elected official has been convicted of a serious crime, but continues to draws thousands of dollars each month in pensions because, they argue, the crime they were convicted of really didn't have anything to do with their oath of office. If an official violates the public's trust, that person should be held accountable and suffer real consequences for violating the law.
These measures all represent good public policy, and I hope our colleagues in the House will work quickly to add their stamp of approval.

Logical fallacy to believe a voter hurdle increased turnout in GA and IN. The much more likely reason for increased turnout: Battleground states, swing states, candidate spending and visits, other close races and early voting allowed. Every peer reviewed university study has shown that not having a photo voter id law does have a statistical significant effect on turnout, but having one does.

Talking about dressing for colder weather, is there anything better than a simple black cami dress, where the focus is solely on the clean lines and straps across the collarbone? (Just add chunky knitwear as the nights draw in!)
The new Fashion Weeks collection from H&M, is exactly what it says on the tin; coming out at the end of August it's perfect timing for strong statement dressing for the fashion month ahead, it's modern but quirky in a unique way, heavily focused on monochromatic minimalism. As usual we can rely on H&M to make high fashion wearable for everyone.
Shop the collection at H&M
More delving's into pinstripe; sorry I'm not sorry, etc.. although waring the same coat twice is hardly a crime, but so much love, for so much pinstripe could be. I am not so secretly heavily crushing on the Stella plaid which I may well move onto next. You know when you have dreams about THAT coat that it's time to do something about it. Not that a white cashmere heavily price tagged coat is making any sense right now, perhaps the knitwear could. Perhaps I love it more as it seems like the only print that has escaped being copied on the high street to deaths door and back. Watch this space I suppose.

Back in time. before the big chop; no my hair doesn't grow at super speed. I'm in Devon for the weekend with family and found these I forgot all about. Wearing the black waxed leather jacket from my last collection, currently in production and hitting stores in a couple of weeks – woohoo! So excited for my own ecommerce site to launch around the same time meaning you'll be able to buy directly from me! So many exciting things happening at the moment – thank you to all of you for joining me on this journey, and most of all for the support!

Back in London and in the midst of packing, managed to break free for iced coffee and snacks to take in some of the epic heatwave that London has been experiencing. Funny that it doesn't look remotely as hot as my previous sun filled posts, but London is a muggy heat and it's definitely not as appropriate to walk around in a bikini here, fortunately.
More than clothes lately I seem to be collecting jewellery like a magpie; my latest obsession is Kirstie Maclaren. Featured on this blog years ago with her graduate collection, and now fully fledged and with her own beautiful jewellery label! Obsessed with these perfect gold pieces, feeling a bit of a cleopatra vibe wearing them all at once, which is no bad thing.

Watching the sunset over the Balearic islands, at our evening at The Savannah. These photos nostalgically remind me of similar nights spent with family on holiday, listening to Motown albums over and over, hence the fitting name and now a sound that just feels like summer to me. It felt good dressing up a bit after spending most of the day lounging around in a bikini on the island of Ibiza. Still living in these perfect trousers and the H&M top, that I have to watch I'm not slouching and playing peekaboo with those sitting closest..
Happy that summer is here in London, stil frantically packing up the studio ready for the move tomorrow. Only frantically because I want to get out and enjoy the Sunday on such a beautiful weekend!

One of my favourite pictures from when I was down in Devon, taken on instagram after a day on the beach – which clearly you can tell by my skin! I'd been looking for the perfect pair of white trousers for forever and I found these in Zara (similar here and here), so happy when the high street gets it right.
Speaking of high street, what do we think of the news that Isabel Marant will be the next in line for H&M collaboration? It seems logical to go for such an easy-to-wear, laid back brand after the avant garde aesthetics of Margiela last year. That being said, I think what made the Margiela collection genius as it was actual remakes of key archive pieces, and I'm still wearing my leather trews consistently.
Back to work after the holidays and busy with production for AW13, SO excited to get my e-commerce site up and running so you guys will have a lot more choice and see more what my brand is all about. In the meantime Bengt are having a 30% off pre sale so make sure you snatch up anything you've had your eye on before it goes! Just use the code FLASHSALE30 at the checkout.

In the English countryside at the moment enjoying some R&R before lots of buyers meetings begin to take place next week. I still have so many pictures from the show to share with you that I will start to put up soon, I promise! Right now I'm enjoying taking little 7 month old Kobi out for long walks and knowing that a large chunk of the work is done. :)
Despite living the last week in black jeans and a tshirt due to walking the dog or cutting out hides of leather on my hands and knees, it feels good to dress up in nice things at the weekend. I've been wearing my new boots at every available opportunity, their first outing being around my neighbourhood to buy a tin of beans from the corner shop. I'm not sure if Riccardo Tisci designed these boots with that job in mind but live in them, I shall.
Most of my eBay trawling has to be under the name 'Ann Demeulemeester' (of course!), the sheer volume of pieces you can find internationally, and sold for a fraction of the price; even often cheaper than the equivalent you would buy new in Zara. My most recent find was this silk/linen mix blazer; I've been looking for a thicker, longer jacket for winter and this is perfect! I've also been dying to pair this shirt with some Ann D, as I wanted so many of the dip dye pieces from her last collection, but they're always such a high price compared to the normal silk pieces. Maybe eBay will yield some of that soon too!

Wearing my new Margiela for H&M boots! I'm so happy with them, and I have to say the quality is not at all far off my other Margiela shoes, which was my only worry when first hearing about the collab. I love how weird they look from a distance, like I'm walking on tiptoes!

Saipan Trip Notes – Vital Information at your fingertips
Congratulations!! You have convinced your family or friends to travel with you for the once-in-a-lifetime trip to Saipan, the largest island within the Northern Marinas group between Japan and Guam in the Pacific. You have blocked the travel dates and confirmed the airline tickets. The next thing on the list is to obtain information on all the other aspects, so essential for an anticipated trip to Saipan to be termed a success. We present below all those tiny bits of information, to save you time and effort in searching a wide set of web links (some of them with outdated updates).
Visa Requirements – If you are a US Citizen, you can skip this section. Northern Marinas territories come under the US Government administration, so travelling to Saipan is as straight forward as travelling to Texas for holders of the coveted US passport. Similarly, 37 countries (NATO countries and few rich Asian countries), which participate in the Visa Waiver program with the USA are exempted from requiring a visa stamp before landing at Marinas International Airport, Saipan. Countries, which have no such agreement, will need to queue up for a visa at the various local US Embassies or Consulates, which handle administrative issues for the Northern Marinas.
Vaccination – No special vaccination procedures required when coming to Saipan. If you are a finicky traveler, who prefers to be safe than sorry, it would be a good idea to take the flu jab before you leave. You can also visit the USA CDC (Communicable Disease Center) to get any latest updates or advisory pertaining to Saipan.
Where to Stay – Important, easy-to-read facts about the more popular Saipan hotels are listed below with the no of $ signs indicating if budget (within $75), middle-tier ($75 to $125) or high-end ($125++).
If you are looking at a longer duration of stay, you could check out the Saipan online classifieds, and rent an apartment.
- Pacific Island Club (PAC) ($$$) – is a typical Las Vegas style resort, family-friendly with water-parks, beachside, 2 popular buffet restaurants and spa. Definitely a lock-in, if you want the best for your family.
- Saipan World Resort ($$$) – Bang on Susupe beach, with the popular Wave Jungle water-park is another of the luxurious family-friendly resorts which enhances Saipan's image as a popular gateway for kids.
- Hyatt Regency ($$$) – is a trusted reputed brand name. Expect same Hyatt treatment you find worldwide with great restaurants and facilities.
- Mariana Resort & Spa ($$$) – is popular for its Mandi Asian Spa & proximity to the Mariana Golf Country Club as well as children theme recreations. It is located on the more secluded Wing Beach.
- Hafa Adai Beach Hotel ($$) – is centrally located in Garappan (Saipan's main town) and is very popular with Japanese / Korean tour-groups. If you do not want spas or kid-theme entertainment in the hotel, this is a highly recommended choice.
- Aquarius Beach Towers ($$) – caters more for people with longer-term stay plans and offers a variety of nicely done rooms including in-built kitchen facilities. Wireless and free shuttle to airport is available, but eating choices are less.
- Kanoa Resort ($$$) – is popular for its landscaped swimming pool, Japanese restaurant and beachside BBQ. Club-V nightclub gets those with good dance moves shaking their legs at night.
- Himawari Hotel ($) – is among the budget hotels, which still get decent reviews. Its decent room decor should get you a good night's sleep after a lot of trekking around Saipan.
- Aqua Resort Club ($$$) – the wide spacious lobby is an indicator of the comfy interiors, wide dining options, on-site spa services and the other luxuries one is used to when checking into a top-end island hotel.
- Saipan Ocean View Hotel ($) – is another budget hotel decent enough for even a family with kids to check-in. It has a pool, but it is the beach and other Saipan attractions, where you would be spending more time.
Where to Eat – Saipan definitely will not let the hungry tourist go hungry after an enjoyable day out, but the choice of restaurants are more catering to the tourist palate with less variety of local Marinas food available.
- Revolving Restaurant 360 at Susupe – is definitely worth an experience, especially if you have kids. The continental buffet complements the gentle 360 degree turn in the restaurant perfectly.
- Japanese / Korean cuisine – is very popular in Saipan, due to the heavy influx of honeymooners and tourist groups from these Asian countries. The more popular ones are Himawari (good value for money) , Casa Urushima, Furusato and Miyako (in Hyatt Regency)
- Italian / Continental cuisine – has a few popular, recommended restaurants in Saipan which include Capricciosa, Tony Roma's and Giovanni
- Buffet-style – are the more popular restaurants, thanks to the variety of food and the type of tourist drawn to Saipan. The Magellan and the San Antonio Sea-side Grill (in the PAC hotel) and Dining Deck (in Lao Lao Golf Resort) are the recommended ones.
- Cafe's – Local cafe joints, which also serve Western-style food are more popular with the budget-conscious. Shirley's Coffee Shop, Java Joe's, Bobby Cadillac are the crowded ones, indicating that is where you will be satisfied with both the food and the ambience. There is a joint called Esko's, which you can get local Chamorro (indigenous Saipan inhabitants) food, but it is hard to find. To know more about Chamorro cuisine, you can visit – http://www.chamorrofood.net/
What to Do – You may have already planned what to do in Saipan, but we will just quickly touch up on a few key things, so you can look up on them, if they are not on your list already. They are
- Suicide Cliff / Banzai Cliff / WW2 Museums / Sherman Tank on beach
- The Grotto / Bird Island / Forbidden Island / Sugar King Park
- Managha island day-trip
- Beaches in Garappan / Susupe
Tips on Car Renting – There is no public transportation on Saipan, so if you are not travelling on a tour package, you are left very much on your own in moving about this island. Taxis are available, but quite expensive even if you try to hire illegal taxis run by illegal immigrants. As Saipan is administered by USA, most of the standard American car-rental companies (Hertz, Budget, Alamo, National, Avis, Thrifty) are available in Saipan, many of them in the Airport itself.
Click Here to find cheap rental cars at over 6000 locations worldwide. The Saipan Airport rental has a website of its own, so you can take a look at the cars available. Thrifty has a website dedicated to Guam / Saipan, so you could inquire directly, if they offer better deals depending on your length of stay. You can get better deals at local car rental companies, but you won't find them in the airport. Click Here to find cheap rental cars at over 6000 locations worldwide.

Why Kveller Needs Your Help
I was in a serious car accident about a month ago and I received an email during my recovery from a woman who saw the accident happen and was compelled to stop her car and come help me. Why? Check this out: she didn't want to help because I was a famous person on television. She wanted to help because she read an article I wrote for Kveller about helping people even when it's inconvenient, difficult, and might seem impossible.
I'm writing to you now to ask for your help in a different way, even though it might not be easy or convenient. Kveller has gathered an incredible group of female writers who put words to feelings which are not typically shared. It is one of the few places I've found on the internet where intelligence, courage, wit, and honesty are the foundation.
The world of social media and internet information can distract us and dumb us down, but Kveller is a place that rises above that. Kveller challenges us to inspire, confront, and grow–as individuals, as parents, as a community, as a people–and that's something I'm proud to be a part of.
That's why I write for Kveller. That's why I want to keep writing for Kveller. And that's why we're asking for your support.
Kveller depends on donations from people like you to cover 85% of its budget. Kveller is a project of a non-profit organization. Help make a difference by making a tax-deductible donation today.

Healthy Monadnock 2020 offers communities a blueprint to a healthier future
"Community Connections" spotlights the many ways in which hospitals serve their communities. AHA members can learn more by visiting www.ahacommunityconnections.org. The Cheshire Medical Center/ Dartmouth-Hitchcock in Keene, NH, issued a challenge seven years ago to Cheshire County residents: Let's work together to become the healthiest community in the nation by 2020.The hospital formed what is now called the "Healthy Monadnock 2020" initiative to improve the health of not just the 77,000 residents of the county, but the broader region of southwestern New Hampshire, which is home to about 200,000 people. A recent community health survey showed the region has made significant improvements across a range of health indicators."We are definitely on our way," says Linda Rubin, director of Cheshire Medical Center's healthy community initiative and a member of the Healthy Monadnock 2020's advisory board. For its leadership of the community-wide health improvement initiative, Cheshire Medical Center Nov. 4 received the AHA Carolyn Boone Lewis Living the Vision Award. Renamed in 2002 in memory of the first hospital trustee to serve as AHA chairman, the award honors hospitals that are helping to build healthier communities through actions that go beyond traditional hospital care."Becoming the healthiest community is a significant challenge and it's one that Cheshire Medical Center is ready to meet," said AHA President and CEO Rich Umbdenstock, who traveled to Keene Monday to present the award to hospital leaders.Under the Healthy Monadnock 2020 banner, more than 2,200 people and 85 area businesses so far are registered in a "Champions" program – a grassroots effort aimed at creating a healthy workplace, school or club environment. Champions pledge to live, share and inspire others to follow the goals and values of Healthy Monadnock 2020. "They are our boots on the ground advocates for change in the community," says Rubin.Cheshire Medical Center CEO and President Art Nichols describes Healthy Monadnock 2020 as an "attempt to change how we perceive our health, and to create an awareness of the importance individuals play in determining their own health status. " A 30-member advisory board includes representatives of schools, local government agencies, social service and youth organizations and businesses. It meets six times a year to evaluate strategies designed to keep the community on a pathway to progress on major health measures. A wide range of initiatives are supported and advanced, like, for example, city committees making it safer for kids to walk or bike to school, a local food coalition increasing the community's access to fresh food and a community program helping workplaces become advocates for healthy living.For Healthy Monadnock 2020, community health includes things like transportation infrastructure – demonstrated through "Complete Streets," a nationwide safe streets project spearheaded in the area by the Monadnock Region Transportation Management Association (MRTMA) and Keene Planning Commission. The term is used to describe a set of design principles that promote safer access for pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists and public transportation users of all ages and abilities.The Complete Streets model, recently adopted in Keene, will help planning or public works departments consider all user groups, not just cars, when reconstructing or building new streets, says MRTMA coordinator J.B. Mack. MRTMA is a major partner in the Healthy Monadnock 2020 initiative."The goal is to make all users comfortable on our streets," Mack says. "If you don't have the infrastructure on the roads that make it safe for people to walk and bike then they are less likely to make those activities part of their lifestyle."Another Healthy Monadnock 2020 partner is the Monadnock Farm and Community Coalition (MFCC), a coalition of local food producers. "Being a part of [the initiative] helps us amplify our message about getting more people to eat healthy local food," says Amanda Littleton, district manager for the Cheshire County Conservation District, and one of MFCC's leaders. The coalition wants to expand markets for area farmers and provide residents better access to fresh produce.Andrew Bohannon is director of the city's parks and recreations department and a member of the Healthy Monadnock 2020 board. Improving Keene's trail system – as part of the community health initiative – is a priority. "Our trail system provides a direct link to the Healthy 2020 Monadnock initiative because it is a resource for people to commute, shop, eat and just connect from the east to west side of the city," he says. "Our trails get people outdoors, and being outdoors has a great effect on personal health."Most of the funding for Healthy Monadnock 2020 comes from the hospital's Cheshire Health Foundation, with support from grants and private donations.As the initiative's "organizational backbone," Cheshire Medical Center provides overall strategic direction, coordinates the work of its partners and outreach, manages data collection and analysis and mobilizes and leverages funding. Rubin stresses that Healthy Monadnock 2020 is a community – not a hospital – endeavor. "This is about engaging people in the community to take greater responsibility for their own health," she says. "The community has embraced this as its own."Still, MFCC's Littleton says the hospital has been "vital in keeping the focus on health improvement and building community identity." Adds MRTMA's Mack: "The hospital is the glue that holds everything together. They are our champion."For more on the AHA Carolyn Boone Lewis Living the Vision Award, click on: http://tinyurl.com/kvehwuk.

|Botanic Illustration
My interest in botanical illustration
My first college degree was in the visual arts. When I went to art school it was not "fashionable" to teach rigorous skills, such as drawing and the use of various materials. They feared the would warp our creative little spirits with too much structure.
Years later when our local botanic gardens began offering a certificate in botanical illustration, I was eager to sign up and gain some of the skills I had missed the first time around. An added plus was that I am a loving but lazy gardener. Now my only problem is finding the time to practice, practice, practice.

Hello chocophiles!
I've been lurking for a year or so, I'm so excited to finally say hello. I have a tiny little chocolate shop in New Paltz, about 80 miles from NYC. Everything we do is organic, fair-trade, and vegan. We primarily use TCHO couverture, their organic and f/t lines.
Views: 1558
Sorry, my mistake, but then the lucama or cashews are used instead of the milk? I see your point then, but then it is not a milk chocolate but a Lucama chocolate. That is going to taste very different, isn't it? Where can I buy your chocolate, I would really like to try that.
Have you got a website/shop. I am only across the water in the Netherlands...
Fascinating discussion! I like the idea of lucuma white chocolate...
Yesterday I tried to make the vegan white chocolate using a recipe I found on the internet and which called for coconut oil, coconut butter and coconut sugar. I first of all melted the cocobutter and then added the oil to it and mixed them thoroughly together. I then added the coconut sugar and that's when it all went down the drain! The coconut sugar would not melt into the mixture, and an hour or so later it still hadn't melded. It just lay there in the bottom of the bowl, and six hours later it still had not changed. I then tried the recipe again using icing sugar this time and I had no problem at all, it came out in a hard block. The problem came when I thought I would use it as a ganache and added some liqueur to some of it, mixed it all together very well, and then put it into the fridge to set. I took it out this morning and tried to scoop some to make a truffle but I found that the mixture had separated, the liqueur was underneath a hard layer of the 'white chocolate' mixture. If I add gelatin to the mixture do you think that would help keep it all together? I also tasted the stuff and it retained no taste at all of anything.
Hello Eileen!
We make a version of what you're making that we use for fillings and things. You can't really use it as a "ganache" without adding so much cocoa butter that it tastes terrible, or so much sugar that it's way too sweet, but it works as a thin piped filling. Instead of coconut sugar we use a vegan powdered sugar and whip it all up in the food processor with lots of vanilla. It's nice. I definitely wouldn't use gelatin to the mixture, because that would make it not vegan, but you could experiment with agar-agar, which is a vegan gelatin derived from sea vegetables.
Thank you, Lagusta, for your response. It's certainly not as easy as I thought it was going to be. The recipe given on the internet was said, on the same website, to be easy and delicious. I suppose that coconut sugar didn't melt because each granule was surrounded with oil and fat although that didn't affect the regular sugar. I wonder why the person compiling the recipe didn't get the same result. And thanks for reminding me about the gelatin, I'd forgotten that. Maybe if I continue with this experiment I will try the agar-agar but right now I am disillusioned. From what I have read on this website it will be a very hard slog to get a good vegan white chocolate. Thanks again.
Hi. Contact email@example.com
Thanks, I will.
Me again. I tried that email address and was told it was incorrect so it didn't go through. What did I leave out? By the way, thanks for your help.
Hi: I did a search on that company on the internet and you were right about contacting them. But the computer wanted me to open an Outlook account for emails and when I wouldn't the notice appeared saying the address was incorrect! Anyway, regardless, I got around it and sent the email off.
Thanks again for your help.

A handmade book
For my senior thesis project at George Mason University, I was tasked with creating a book. I developed the concept, researched for content, and designed the book from scratch. I also created a poster and helped create and organize a show and reception to share the work with the surrounding community.
I have always found Space to be a fascinating topic, as it has evoked my curiosity and sense of wonder and adventure. I believe that exploring the shared human experience in response to it has turned into a fun, thought provoking, and deeply human book. Looking at human interaction with outer space through history, science, and popular culture, my book is an exploration of exploration, a document of the adventure and wonder of the unknown.

Four Guys Rap Their Entire Order at Wendy's Drive Thru and Get it For Free [Video]
Will RAP for food!
College freshman "Mr. B", and three of his buddies, were hungry for some Wendy's. When they pulled through the drive thru, the girl working the register got herself a FROSTY treat — in the form of a COLD ass rap — as the guys placed their order.
According to reports, this was NOT planned or rehearsed.
Mr. B rolls up to the speaker and the bass line begins. B looks back at his boyz and asks what they want. They all start speaking at once, and B manages to catch it all. He then turns to the speaker and begins to spit, "Aiight, excuse me, yo I want a number two, a double with cheese, not the combo though, just the sandwich please."
After ordering the sandwich, the music cuts off and B turns, once again to his friends, and asks what they want to drink. Again, they all start yelling things at once and B returns to the
mic speaker to rap the order.
B even orders a QUARTER POUNDER at Wendy's but the employee doesn't even care!!!
After he finishes, the Wendy's girl RAPS his order back to him!!!
They pull up to the window and the lady tells them to pull over as they are getting their order ready.
She then brings out all the food — which she managed to get COMPLETELY RIGHT — and gives it to them for FREE!
The guys are then shown eating from afar, while sitting on a curb on the street, and they pretend to get in an argument. B even dumps his fries all over one of his boys.
They definitely earned their meal!!!

The City Council is looking to change the city's notorious alternate side parking regulations, but it's a change the de Blasio administration is not gearing up for. NY1's Courtney Gross filed the following report.
It's a tradition of the urban car owner: double parking and waiting.
"I am waiting for 10 o'clock for the alternate side to be over with," one New York driver said.
"I came out at 8:30 and I have to stay with the car until ten," another said.
Waiting for 90 long minutes is how some navigate the city's alternate side parking regulations.
Drivers stake out a coveted spot and sit, sometimes long after the sweeper has gone and the street has been cleaned.
"I don't think it's worth waiting until 10 o'clock because of a technicality. I think you should be able to park and move on with the day," another driver said.
Members of the City Council agree. "Once the street is clean, we should have people be allowed to park there," said Brooklyn City Councilman Chaim Deutsch.
The Council is considering legislation that would allow drivers to park once a street sweeper passes by—shaving off minutes from the hour-and-a-half alternate side window. "We are talking about working class and middle class to save probably millions of millions of dollars that they are wasting spending their time inside of their car when they would like to be with their family, sleeping, doing business," said Manhattan City Councilman Ydanis Rodriguez. "The department appreciates the intent of the bill to make on-street parking available more quickly for motorists, but respectfully opposes the bill," said Paul Visconti of the Sanitation Department.
That is because, changing the rules, members of the de Blasio administration argue, could be messy.
"That vehicle equipped with a GPS, let's say, goes around the block—it doesn't mean the block is clean. We want to reserve the right to come back around the block and clean the street. The bottom line is to get the curb clean," Visconti said.
"I know it's difficult sometimes to embrace change as a policy maker, but I think that it's not—it's not that crazy," said Brooklyn City Councilman David Greenfield.
A vast majority of City Council members have signed onto this legislation and those supporters say they are confident it will move forward.
Any change, these drivers say, would be worth waiting for.
"It almost feels like a part-time job to handle our car so any change where they could lessen the hours or even lessen the number of days would be welcome in our house," said another driver.

The ADuM6210/ADuM6211/ADuM6212 are dual-channel digital isolators with isoPower®, an integrated, isolated DC/DC converter. Based on the Analog Devices, Inc., iCoupler® technology, the DC/DC converter provides regulated, isolated power, adjustable between 3.15 V and 5.25 V. Input supply voltages can range from slightly below the required output to significantly higher.
This eliminates the need for a separate, isolated DC/DC converter in low power, isolated designs. The iCoupler chip-scale transformer technology is used for isolated logic signals and for the magnetic components of the DC/DC converter. The result is a small form factor, total isolation solution.
The ADuM6210/ADuM6211/ADuM6212 isolators provide two isolated digital data channels and power in a variety of directional configurations and data rates (see the Ordering Guide for more information).
isoPower uses high frequency switching elements to transfer power through its transformer. Special care must be taken during printed circuit board (PCB) layout to meet emissions standards. See the AN-0971 Application Note for board layout recommendations.APPLICATIONS

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Yet now Janeway decides that Starfleet should pull back from exploration because of these deaths?

Voyager is assigned to go and find a probe launched by Earth three hundred years ago which vanished in their vicinity. Launched long before the Prime Directive, the probe was programmed to give technical information to any species it encountered in order to allow them to use matter/antimatter power systems. Unfortunately when Voyager finds the probe they discover that it passed this information on to a primitive society, with disastrous results.
