You can ask me for advice if you want, but I'm not sure how much help I'd be since I have a boy.
Also, the Empress (my wife) has offered up her services as a sounding board/vent recipient/support group person for the new mommy. Often it helps for new moms to have someone to chat with about the kid who isn't a blood relation.
Clan? What Clan?
I'm the Master. I need no Clan.

Getting into the greeting card business is relatively easy, Ventresca attests. All you need are graphic design skills and a computer. Entrepreneurs often start with less than $5,000--sometimes much less, if they already own a computer and printer. Many designers gain experience by freelancing for the major card companies. You can create samples on your computer and take them directly to stores, pitch them to potential sales representatives or display them at trade shows such as the National Stationery Show held every May in New York City.
Maureen Waters, former editor of industry trade publication Greetings Today, suggests sidestepping card-store chains, which rarely take chances on newcomers. Instead, look for creative outlets for your work: small gift shops, flower shops and airport shops. "If you find a place that isn't selling cards, ask the owner if you can set up a spinner rack in a corner to sell your cards--which, most often, are an impulse buy," Waters says.
The tricky part is staying in business. "Retailers want a guarantee of success," says Waters. "They're reluctant to take chances on new lines." Because creating cards is so easy and getting into the industry so inexpensive, unseasoned entrepreneurs often jump into business impulsively, without a business plan or a definite sense of direction--common mistakes that can prove fatal.
Ventresca's business took off with ease in 1993, but a couple of years later it slowed dramatically. "I met with friends to examine my cards, and we noticed they had no sense of direction, nothing to hold them together as a line," she says. So Ventresca decided to create a set of recurring characters--a few young women, a man and a dog--who pop up repeatedly doing aerobics, going shopping, working on a computer or eating chocolate. "The competition is more brutal than I thought it would be," she acknowledges, adding that she's taken some courses to hone her business skills.

Recipes from Todays Canada AM show on winter grilling
It was a tropical BBQ in a frigid climate this morning on CTV Canada AM. Had the pleasure once again to be on Canada's most watched national morning show. Usually when I show up to do a grilling or BBQ segment there are lots of staff milling about but with -8 in the sun today it was a little quiet on the patio. Seamus O'Regan had me laughing yet again. He loves anything with Jerk spices on it. Today's menu was inspired by the tropics. They are super simple yummy & easy recipes. Its for those of us who can't get to the tropics for the sun but at least we can eat like we are in the tropics…..
Diva Q Jamaican Jerk Chicken
- 1 whole chicken cut into 6/8 pieces
- Jamaican Jerk Rum Wet Rub (see recipe below)
- 2 limes halved
Rub jerk seasoning over chicken pieces. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight. Preheat a barbecue grill to medium high. Grill chicken pieces direct, turning often until the temperature of the dark pieces is 180F and the light pieces is 165F. Remove pieces from the grill and top with freshly squeezed lime juice.
Diva Q Jamaican Jerk Pork Loin
- 1 whole pork loin
- Jamaican Jerk Rum Wet Rub
- 2 limes halved
Rub jerk seasoning over pork loin. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight. Preheat a barbecue grill to medium high. Sear each side of the pork loin direct then move to the indirect side and grill till the temperature of the loin reaches 160F and top with freshly squeezed lime juice. Rest at least 15 minutes prior to serving.
Diva Q Jamaican Jerk Rum Wet Rub:
- 1/2 red onion finely minced

- 1/4 cup green scallions
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 2 small jalapenos finely minced

Prepare the grill for medium high heat. Oil grates with canola oil. Grill mango slices directly turning often until just tender and lightly charred. Grill poblano turning often until softened and the skin has blistered. Cube the grilled mango and chop the poblano into small pieces. Add the remaining ingredients and serve with chicken pork or fish.
Diva Q Drunk Pineapple Dessert (just for adults)
- 1 whole pineapple sliced core removed
- 4oz Sangsters Original Jamaican Rum Cream
- 2 cups whipped cream
- Toasted almond slices
Preheat a grill to medium high heat. Oil grates with canola oil. Grill slices of pineapple directly turning often until just tender and charred with grill marks. Cube the pineapple slices and divide between 4 martini glasses. Pour 1 oz of Jamaican Rum cream over pineapples in each glass. Garnish each glass with whipped cream and toasted almond slices.
So this is the week. Our episode on BBQ Pitmasters TLC 10pm EST Thursday.
Well I am curious to see this weeks episode from Season 2 BBQ Pitmasters.
I want to take a moment to post my thoughts on BBQ Pitmasters before our episode airs. I have read a lot of negative comments on various BBQ boards twitter and facebook. We knew there was a complete format change this year prior to going in. It was public knowledge so no secret about that. In fact I looked forward to the opportunity to BBQ something other than the typical 4 meats.
I really do believe a pitmaster should be able to handle more than just those 4 meats ribs chicken pork and brisket. I think a pitmaster should handle the various obstacles thrown at them. No where did it say this was a typical MIM, KCBS, PNWBA, FBA etc contest. Its just bbq on tv. So maybe call it BBQ and grilling entertainment>??? People need to lighten up a bit. Please note I also have no problem any more using the term BBQ to describe making hot dogs on a grill or even something like grilling asparagus. I used to cringe at it but over time I realized there were so many ppl using the term BBQ to describe something else that I figured it didn't matter to me as long as people were getting together enjoying great food in the company of their loved ones and friends. For those of you that think this show was scripted let me tell you for sure 100% it wasn't. However I will tell you it was the biggest challenge of my bbq career to date and the hardest competition I have ever endured. It took real stamina, knowledge and quick thinking on the parts of all of the teams that went and did this show. Win or lose every single team that appears should be commended for taking on this competition.
We were in California in 110F or higher temps for the entire time. We spent the vast majority of our times standing up racing around or generally plotting our next move. Yes there were times when we did some BS smack talking (and seriously it was hard to keep a straight face on it LOL) but overall when you are BBQing among friends it really is just a bunch of posturing and BS I love the guys we went up against.
What a fun time we all had Big Poppas Smokers, Big Mistas BBQ and the legendary Johnny Trigg. I absolutely 100% enjoyed myself with our team of my husband and my BBQ BFF Angie. I would do it again in a heartbeat. We had a lot of giggle times and a lot of stressful times but overall I am really happy with how it all went down.
Hope you watch the show. Just take it for what it is a whole lot of fun and entertainment.

TDT is reporting that Russell Hanz will be back for season 22.
A Russell vs. Rob tribe would be fun.... I don't mind them seeing again.
I don't know how truthful it is, but I thought I read somewhere (and I don't remember where) that Russell took to his Facebook page and said that the rumors were not true.
Lynne's latest tweet:"i'd like survivor 22 to be filled with interesting people. ha, i'm just fucking with you... expect more kelly sharbararararaughghghghhh <3"I don't know if Kelly is a reference to a past contestant (I haven't regularly watched Survivor since Cook Islands) or a friend or fan.

Magnesium: The Forgotten Healer
David Spero
April 25, 2012
Based on information from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), magnesium is practically a wonder drug. Yet few people know about it, and few doctors recommend it. It helps maintain muscles and nerves, regulates blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure, and prevents heart attacks.
I first learned about magnesium (chemical symbol Mg) when my legs started becoming stiff and jumpy. It was a multiple sclerosis symptom, but what to do about it? The prescribed medicines stopped the spasms, but had the side effect of completely knocking me out. My muscles wouldn't function at all.
Then someone at a support group suggested I take magnesium. In two days, the spasms and jumpy legs stopped. I've taken it ever since. I didn't realize it had all these other benefits until a comment from Patricia on this blog entry alerted me.
Patricia told us about a book called The Magnesium Miracle by Dr. Carolyn Dean, an MD and naturopath. According to Dr. Dean, nearly 80% of Americans are deficient in magnesium, and it is often the primary factor in heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and most muscular problems.
The NIH says, "Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body… [It] is involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis." And according to our own Amy Campbell, "Results from three very large studies indicate that people who consume a diet rich in magnesium have a lower risk of getting Type 2 diabetes."
People with diabetes are more likely than those without to be low in magnesium. According to an article on About.com, "Elevated blood glucose levels increase the loss of magnesium in the urine, which in turn lowers blood levels of magnesium." So getting enough magnesium is especially important in diabetes.
In spite of these benefits, medical authorities rarely recommend magnesium. That's why I call it the forgotten mineral. For instance, people on diuretics ("water pills") are usually given potassium supplements to replace the potassium lost through urination. But magnesium is lost the same way and rarely supplemented.
According to the piece on About.com, "Healthy adults who eat a varied diet do not generally need to take a magnesium supplement."
Dr. Dean strongly disagrees. She says that the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) is 350 to 400 milligrams per day, but for best health, we may need roughly double this amount. She says the Standard American Diet (SAD) provides very little magnesium. Soils depleted by factory farming may grow foods low in magnesium. Refined grains and processed foods have usually been stripped of most of their magnesium.
Dean isn't the only one recommending this mineral. Drs. Andrea Rosanoff, PhD, and Mildred Seelig, MD, authors of The Magnesium Factor, state, "Mg has effects that parallel those of statins."
In the Journal of the American College of Nutrition, they wrote, "Both statins and normal Mg levels prevent clotting, reduce inflammation and prevent [arterial] plaques. But statins raise liver enzymes, can cause [muscle damage] and have many other side effects, while Mg supplements tend to protect [muscles] and have temporary diarrhea or mild GI distress as the only side effect."
The doctors point to studies showing that nations with low-magnesium/high-calcium diets — the US, Finland, and the Netherlands, in particular — have a lethal heart disease rate much higher than in nations with high-magnesium/low-calcium diets, such as Japan. Yet our medical system encourages statins and ignores magnesium.
How to Get Magnesium
As for the seaweed, some people replace table salt with powdered kelp, which they say tastes better than salt and is loaded with magnesium and iodine.
Most Americans should at least consider magnesium supplements, which come in many available and cheap forms. Dr. Dean says that magnesium oxide is not a good choice, because it is poorly absorbed. She recommends magnesium citrate and magnesium taurate. She also applies magnesium oil on her skin after a shower.
According to Dr. Dean, the first side effect of overdoing the magnesium would be loose stools. In fact, magnesium is used as a laxative, so if you have constipation, that could be a sign of low magnesium levels and another reason to eat more greens and nuts and consider taking supplements. Magnesium could improve your blood sugar levels, protect your heart, strengthen your bones and muscles, and literally save your life.
Magnesium has helped me greatly with fibromyalgia pain. I take a supplement 3 times a day and get lots of green vegetables, legumes, and other good sources. The only downside to magnesium, especially if you take a lot of supplements, is diarrhea. (After all, milk of magnesia is a remedy for constipation.) So it's a good idea to start slow and see how you do. With all it does in the body, it's really a wonder supplementas long as you don't overdo.

This is one element I have been worried about but blood test showed normal levels.
Posted by: calgarydiabetic | Apr 30, 2012 02:24 PM
Greetings All ~ I discovered Magnesium Malate and enjoy chewing it up each evening and feel my aches and jumpy legs relax. I chase it with coconut water. The green coconut produces water that calms diarrhea. The product I use is canned coconut water from green coconut and they include some of the jelly like fiber. Since I have Crohn's with daily diarrhea, this has been helpful to keep me in control. Good Luck, Ya'll Wendy

i drink diet tonic water for leg cramps. It contains quinine and works for me. But I'm going to try the magnesium also.
Posted by: Mariel Tyler | May 03, 2012 12:09 AM
I was taking magnesium injections biweekly to help with severe leg cramps from fibromyalgia. Even taking this much my blood test always registered low norm. Suddenly last July I could no longer get the drug from the pharmacy. They said the manufacturer stopped making it. I do not absorb supplements well so I am very frustrated. Why do the Doctors ignore this important drug and why on earth would the drug company stop manufacturing such an important injectable.

I take magnesium maleate for my fibromyalgia. There have been studies showing this formulation has the best effect for fibromyalgia. The one I use has 425 mg magnesium and 2.5 g malic acid in 3 caplets. It makes a tremendous difference for me. Sometimes I have a spell of leg cramps when it's cold, and I add 250 mg magnesium oxide until things warm up. (I also eat 1 teaspoon of prepared mustard with turmeric at bedtime to prevent leg cramps. It really works unless it gets really cold out.)
Posted by: Deb | May 02, 2012 04:37 PM
Thank you; great advice! I take magnesium but may be not enough; will check into this issue.

I had terrible back pain, especially at night and could not even turn over while lying down without excruciating pain. I read a book about magnesium and back pain and began taking 400 mg. per day, in divided doses and within weeks my back pain stopped. It has been a year since the night back pain ended and I still supplement with 400 mg. of magnesium.
Posted by: Lynne Nelson | May 02, 2012 02:06 PM
The only Mg to take is chelated Mg for best absorbtion.
Posted by: Bill | May 02, 2012 12:15 PM
Virtually all tablet medications contain magnesium stearate as a filler ingredient. Does this type of magnesium help in the same way that magnesium citrate or magnesium taurate do?
Posted by: Regina | May 02, 2012 12:20 PM
I have been taking magnesium for fibromyalgia and leg cramps for years without any appreciable improvement. What dose is recommended? Glad I stopped taking statins, just a couple of weeks in, my leg muscles became so weak I could barely walk.
Posted by: Pat Weiser | May 02, 2012 01:07 PM
When I feel my legs starting to cramp, or the first signs of Restless Leg syndrome begin, I take 2,000 mg of Magnesium Gluconate. I order it from wwwHock.com. I have never had a problem with diarrhea. I obsorb Magnesium Gluconate much better then the Oxide. The reason you blood test is showing normal is because the deficiency is in your cells and not your blood. You have to rely on your symptms, and not that blood test.
Posted by: LInda Green | May 07, 2012 09:16 AM
Be careful how and when you take that magnesium supplement. Many magnesiumm compounds make the upper intestinal tract more alkaline, and that's where the absorbtion of Vitamin D takes place. The altered alkalinity interferes with the absorbtion of the Vitamin D, making the supplement almost worthless. Google "Vitamin D and Magnesium" to check this out. WebMD and Rxlist.com can help here. A suggestion would be to take the Mg at night, and the Vit. D in the morning.

Some four months ago fellow members of Diabetics UK suggested that I consider taking Magnesium for the 'world's worst leg cramps' which would cause both legs from the hips down to go into spasm for at least two hours; the resulting pain causing me to go fall unconscious and collapse causing severe facial injuries. This, being at night and living alone, made me so terrified of a repeat occurrence that I went to my doctor who prescribed Quinine Sulphate on a continuous basis. I took QS for over eight years it was wonderful with not a hint of cramp all that time then only to find that it had damaged my kidneys. I came off QS and re-experienced stronger and stronger leg cramps until I had a near repeat of the first major attack 8 years ago. It must be 4 months now that I have taken Magnesium Malate x 1.250mg x 1 am and x 1 before bed and, although I have had suspicious pre-cramp feelings, none have resulted in full painful cramps. I realise as I write this that I have had one or two weeks now without concern. I am a Type 2 Diabetic and did suffer very bad leg cramps before diagnosis. By the way, it is a good idea to place a small pot/jar of salt by the bed in case of cramp starting because a small amount on the tongue if taken immediately will arrest the pain and spasm within 20 minutes or so. Yes, Magnesium will loosen the bowels, but the upside is worth it. Also, Oralit taken at night will help to replace the salts, etc., lost through the stomach effect.

Magnesium Threonate is some pretty potent stuff and the only form that crosses the blood-brain barrier (based off of research). Magnesium Chelate (magnesium and calcium) is also pretty potent but slightly different in-effect than magnesium threonate. I just started taking magnesium threonate and I wasn't expecting anything, however it's like my entire brain lit up and I got a little extra energy, drive, and focus. I may just be magnesium deficient, however I eat healthy. Maybe my brain is deficient in it... I don't know.
Posted by: Dave | May 21, 2013 12:48 AM
I use a magnesium spray after a meal or shower and at night before bed. If you have anxiety or insomnia or sore knees or muscles a cup of organic chamomile tea and spray the magnesium on your wrists or armpits or knees or ankles and you will have a deep rejuvenating sleep and your anxiety will come down immediately... you will go from racing heart or a feeling of racing high blood pressure or adrenaline rush to calm and peaceful. Just a couple of sprays of magnesium and in minutes you will notice calm. It really helps to almost instantly relieve high blood pressure... within 30 minutes after magnesium you will have lowered blood pressure.

Hi Jessica, The one study I found said that spironolactone lowers magnesium levels, which is a bad thing. So taking some magnesium would be a good idea.
Posted by: David Spero RN | Jul 15, 2013 08:56 PM
I recently started taking Liquid Magnesium Threonate. Is it safe to take with 25mg of spironlactone? Which I take for acne?
Posted by: Jessica | Jul 15, 2013 03:37 PM
Started using magnesium citrate by now 400 mg 2 days ago can walk without pain so my job becomes lot easier I have type 2 diabetes hopefully this will help

Why am I reading this article? After decades of trying to figure out why the more I exercised, the FATTER I got and why I would eventually have to stop exercising because my heart would start dancing in my chest (arrhythmia!), this article confirmed my suspicions. At first I never dreamed it was magnesium because for decades I took 500mg mag daily and EVERY other supplement in perfect balance. What I did not know that I was taking the WRONG kind of magnesium (i.e. oxide) leaving me grossly deficient after my twice a day five days a week bodybuilding routine. Finally after pitting edema set into my ankles, I took drastic action, redoubled my research and developed a sneaking suspicion that the root of my problem was magnesium deficiency. I switched to massive doses of Albion Magnesium (1000mg/day) PLUS 750mg Magnesium Oxide before bed. SUCCESS!!! AFTER DECADES of fruitless struggle! My cardio capacity has DOUBLED in ONE FREAKIN' WEEK! I feel like He-Man again and I cannot wait to hit the gym and take back the progress magnesium stole from me! I HAVE THE POWER!!!!! GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!

Use a magnesium oil spray on the skin rather than magnesium supplments, or take a bath with magnesium salt. MAgnesium is absorbed easily through the skin and you don't have to worry about diarrhea.

46 F - terrible terrible TERRIBLE thigh pain (mostly right mid thigh) mostly at night. Like "gonna kill someone" pain. Forever!!!!!! Sorta think it started few years ago when I started taking TURBO KICK class ... Not 100% sure. Started taking vitamins -cause I'm old. Started calcium. Friend said make sure it has magnesium. Well I love the calcium I take .. It doesn't have mag. So I bought a mag supplement as well. CHANGED MY LIFE!!!!!!! Swear. The pain is 98% gone. I still have thigh issues ... My right leg can't perform (stretch) thr same as my left. One day ill get an X-ray. Till then, I'm good and will not stop taking magnesium. Hope it helps someone else.

Based only on the covers i would say i prefer the Norwegian edition... What appeals to me is mainly the light and feminine look of this room, whereas the room from the swedish edition has a darker and more masculine feeling...
east side bride says:
yeah, my gut votes for #2
Kylie says:
It annoys me too that loyal subscribing readers get a bum deal with magazines. There is no incentive at all!
P.S I prefer the Norwegian cover :)
Rae says:
Sometimes magazines tend to forget about their loyal readers. All magazines do.
The Norwegian photo makes me feel like I could crawl right into the picture, settle myself on that comfy couch with a good book and not want to get up. ❤
Cristina @Fuji Files says:
I prefer the first room (stall) but I wish they had taken the photo from a different angle, a more inviting one! It is very masculine but the couches and artwork are beautiful and photographed differently, this could have looked just as warm and inviting as the 2nd.
Loved your commentary!
xx Cristina
nancy says:
I appreciated your frank comparison of the two magazines. Living in Canada I don't have the luxury of an affordable subscription to either one, although through a friend I was able to subscribe to Swedish Elle Interior a couple times. It's funny: compared to the American Elle Decor available here, the Swedish one seems more relaxed and achievable! Magazines forget that most readers are seeking inspiration rather than a catalogue for the latest expensive furniture and accessories really onlly available to a relatively few.
And to answer your question: I actually really like both covers. But I do love Christmas (especially Scandinavian style!), and would be disappointed if there was nothing special for the holidays in a December issue. Therefore, my vote is for the Norwegian cover! (The wooden star is creative and different).
I so enjoy your blog, Emma! Thank you!
Robyn Orr says:
Yes living in the U.S. I would love just to thumb through either magazine...luckily I have your blog archive for swedish inspiration! I just did a post about your Decembers past.
must say #2 though :)
Weronica - En mammas dag says:
Svenska Elle Interiör är en av de få tidningar som premierar trogna förnyare tycker jag. Man brukar alltid få en premie när man förnyar. Förra gången fick jag en liten Margrethe-skål med en sked till. De andra stora giganterna gör inget sådant. Sedan håller jag med om orättvisan för oss som troget betalar in till skillnad från när man försöker locka folk med premier.
Elle Interior Norge är jag väldigt nyfiken på. Det man ser verkar väldigt lovande. Är det dyrt porto till oss därifrån?
På ett sätt kan jag tycka att det är lite befriande att man inte kör jul i ett nummer som skall säljas till februari. Jag är sugen på nytt nu.
Rosa says:
I think it's a bigger challenge to create a beautiful and inspiring home with less money. It has more identity when you combine new with vintage and expensive with cheaper things. But the nice thing of the diversity of the magazines is you can pick the inspiring pieces from it and make it your own.
Tina says:
Elle Interior Norges omslag tycker jag mycket bättre om denna gång - passade mig precis och jag skulle gärna provläsa tidningen! :-)

Hmmm...yes, the Norwegian cover looks so cosy and it is indeed a bit more realistic to combine more affordable and found items with design. Isn't that the most fun and best reward, finding this one really beautiful design or vintage or antique element that makes your interior stand out and makes it uniquely you?
I do appreciate the Swedish cover too, but in a different way. Looking in from outside, an interior that pulls you in but keeps its distance. It's less homely, but I am curious what's behind that curtain...
Thank you for your inspiring posts, Emma! I really enjoy reading your blog.

hehe, nordmenn og vår kos ;) (mysigt)
Av alle norske interiørbladene så er vel Elle det minst kos-fikserte, tror jeg...
nat says:
Emma - just found & emailed you a larger pic of the elle interior norway magazine page for you to post - so people can really compare.
loving your blog as always - and love that you've exposed us to these two mags in a compare-contrast way.
I actually like both but agree that Norwegian is much more achievable and livable...
have a great day!
Moa says:
Va lustigt att du tog upp det. Jag skulle köpa Elle Interiör igår och när jag höll i tidningen, tittade på omslaget, så kände jag bara näe, och la sen tillbaka den i hyllan. Jag måste flika in att nånting har hänt de 3-4 senaste numren. Inte samma känsla som förr och ibland dålig kvalitet på bilderna.
Jag vill ha tillbaka känslan från förr!
Tack :)
Jes says:
Definitely the Norwegian one – looks like how I would love to have my home.
I think it takes far more skill creating an interesting & stunning home with a limited budget, than just throwing a load of designer pieces in a room.
Don't get me wrong, I am a designer furniture obsessive, but after a while you can become immune to being presented with a million rooms with the same unaffordable furniture!
GoVintage says:
I don't think you should compare the 2 issues.
They are clearly different and want to deliver a different message to their readers.
Probably the goal of the Swedish one was just to be different, on purpose, from all the other magazines you can find this month in a "Christmas version".
I know I'll be unpopular, but I prefer the Swedish one :)
I like to be different aswell ;)
Complain for the not convenient abonement offer! They should take care of you! :)
Erica says:
I'm a swede living in Norway, so I read both versions on a regular basis (we have them at work, how great is that!!). I definitely prefer the norwegian version, as you say, it's more low-key and I like their selection of homes better. For more "high end" inspiration I read Residence, which I also think is a great magazine.
Sandra | Inspirera Mera says:
Vilken härlig jämförelse mellan de två tidningarna! Den norska tidningen tilltalade mig mer.
Hemmarikets Charlotte says:
I sincerely appreciate your frank comparison. I think that the magazines sometimes forgets what their readers wants and needs. Of course there is lots of inspiration in "non affordable" homes but most of us doesnt live that way. I like both ways of displaying but a second thought is never wrong.
Maria says:
Håller verkligen med dig Emma. Varför ska det vara dyrare att som en flera års trogen prenumerant betala mer? nä så jag gick faktiskt och hämtade en prenumerationslapp i en Elle på pressbyrån. Ja det kanske var lite fräckt men nu gjorde jag det.
Men du, var kan kan köpa den norska Elle egentligen om man bor i Sverige? eller funkar det bara att prenumerera på den kanske? Mvh Maria
BODIE and FOU says:
I never had a copy of the Swedish one but Cecilie sent me a few copies when we had products from BODIE and FOU featured in ELLE Interior Norway and I absolutely love it!! It's the perfect combination of the French Elle and Marie-Claire Maison. I just wish I could understand Norwegian but their features are fab!
Polly says:
I much prefer the Norwegian one. It's fresher and more personal. x
Marianne says:
Based on the cover I like the Norwegian one better.
About the subscription. Unsubscribe, wait a few months and subscribe again. if you don't want to miss an issue, you can buy them at the shop.
elizabeth says:
I love a magazine that feels more achievable for the average reader - so based on what you say about the Norwegian edition, I think I'd enjoy it more. The cover definitely looks more inviting - but I think a mix of some of both of the furniture would be perfect! It's nice to read a magazine that you admire and be able to feel inspired AND afford to buy some of their featured items - and it's more personal and a greater challenge to make things work on a "real" budget. The Norwegian edition gets my vote. Thanks for such an inspiring and beautiful blog - I love coming here and drooling over your images! Hope you enjoy this Christmas season and all it entails!
Ylva says:
vad kul med ny tidningsinspiration, jag har bara köpt danska tidningar förut. ska se om det finns norska Elle I att få tag på här i min stad.
Pia says:
I'n a Dane living in London and whenever I go back to Denmark I pick up a copy of Swedish Elle Interior. I think it's one of the best and most inspiring interior mags around (even if I can't afford the expensive designer furniture). As for the two covers they only confirm this to me. If I was faced with the two magazines in a shop
I would definitely choose the Swedish one. Following a number of Norwegian blogs I have to say the other cover is typically Norwegian, i.e. very white and dare I say, quite boring. I like a white background but I think you need some darker furniture and accessories to add a bit of depth and character. The preferred style in Norway seems to be all white, a bit romantic, a bit nostalgic and sometimes a bit shabby chic; a look I'm frankly quite sick off. I agree with you about subscriptions; I have the same problem over here and have decided to cancel my two subscriptions (Elle Deco and Living Etc.) I will subscribe again when they entice me with a better offer.By the way, love your blog even though you post a lot of white interiors too. You seem to find the best ones...often completely unachievable but lovely to look at, interior porn....
emma ::emmas designblogg:: says:
Hi all, thanks for all your thoughts on the subject! I just want to make it totally clear that I love the Swedish edition too, it's my favorite Swedish interior mag! The two different editions just serves different purposes for me. The Swedish one makes me drool over cool furniture that I could never afford but love to look at, while the Norwegian one gives me inspiration for things I can do in my own home.
For the Swedes who asked where to buy the Norwegian issue, I'm sorry to say that it is only available in Sweden through subscribing. But I very much recommend it, and I don't think you would be disappointed if you got a subscription.
About my own subscription to the Swedish Elle Interiör, I'm going to wait for the Furniture Fair in February, where they always have good deals on their subscriptions!
Kate from LittleBrightSpot says:
Thanks for this, these side-by-side comparisons are always so interesting. I agree, the Norwegian version looks much more cozy, attainable and feminine. The Swedish version is much more of a high-culture, lofty man-cave. I agree that the two magazines could benefit from some dialogue. When I read magazines, I want to have that blend of unachievable, high-design eye candy and spaces that feel livable and like I could re-create elements of them in my own home.
Hayley says:
I LOVE the tha Norwegian cover has a Jewish star! I appreciate the subtle nod to the fact that some people celebrate non- Christmas holidays in December. I can't even think of ever having seen that on the cover of a December magazine.
vosgesparis says:
I think I totally agree with you on the covers.... The Swedish looks like they do not want to do anything with Christmas at all.... and me personally I do not like the furniture on the cover (bit to retro looking for me) How the picture is made... mm It makes me want to walk into the right corner to see what is in the space behind the windows..
Norwegian one looks cozy-er to my taste... You make me want to have a good look at the Dutch one now ;)
And yes we deserve a good welcome present each year ;) Actually VT Wonen draws a winner amongst their subscribed readers every month.. and you can win great prices!
amyC says:
I would pick up the Norwegian Elle at a newstand, but if I could have both, I would! Where does Skona Hem fit into all of this? I got an issue last December and I tore out about half of it for my scrapbook. Very Christmassy and inviting stuff into lots of real homes (I don't really know if they were upper class or whatnot). Gonna answer my own question, I imagine, it's more like Norwegian Elle then.
emma ::emmas designblogg:: says:
Hayley: Yes, that is a nice touch! I didn't even think about it, as I am not religious, so I guess I just subconsciously visually block out any images of crosses or stars and the like... :)
Desiree: I like the furniture, their stall on the fair was great. I just don't like it on the cover.
Yes, you should definitely take a look at the Dutch Elle, perhaps you can compare all three Elles?
I'm not looking for a gift when I subscribe, I just want a good price. And I know I will get that in February, so I'll wait. :)
Amyc: Sköna Hem is a little more traditional, a bit bland for my tastes most of the time. A mix of achievable, a tad boring, nice and classic. Not very exciting, and no surprises. But they have their moments too. :) I usually find one or two nice features in each issue of Sköna Hem, but I don't buy the mag, just browsing their site is enough. I think they are aimed at a broader audience, not a design freak like me...
amyC says:
:D In Sweden now, so I'll be grabbing lots of home decor mags. Thanks for the Skona Hem answers :D
malin says:
Blir mycket mer sugen att bläddra i norges!
Jasmine says:
I´ve never understood it when interiors magazines don´t milk Christmas for all it is worth as it really is the time of year that we all enjoy our homes the most. So on that note I prefer the Norwegian Elle... could have something to do with me missing Norway like mad right now though!
And yes, I too don´t understand why loyal customers get the bad deal. I manage to get around it with my World of Interiors subscription by getting my family to subscribe for me instead, usually as a Xmas or birthday present.
And last but not least, this is the first time I´m reading your blog and I love it. I hope to figure out very soon which direction I want my new blog to go in. Any tips would be much appreciated!
Christina says:
Norska är så mkt bättre!!! Gillar inte alls det svenska, stirrar helatiden på det konstiga fönstret till höger som är blurigt och konstigt... Det är fina möbler men inte alls inbjudande. Sen den mörka blå färgen till det redan ganska mörka omslaget... nej! Heja Norge!

The UAW's Smoking Gun
July 17, 2008
It turns out that all the suspicions about Reform Michigan Government Now's stealth plan to "reverse pack" the courts to benefit the state Democrat Party have now been shown to be right on target.
The smoking gun is a PowerPoint injudiciously posted on one of the UAW's regional member websites and discovered by the Mackinac Center for Public Policy, which has now posted the revelatory document on its website. The UAW PowerPoint makes no bones about the purpose of the measure, boldly titling it: "Government Reform Proposal: Changing the rules of politics in Michigan to help Democrats." The emphasis is their own.
The Associated Press and Detroit Free Press ran with the news this afternoon.
The UAW's PowerPoint lays out "the problem," which is that "Democrats in Michigan have not controlled the entire State Legislature in 25 years," and the Democrats "Must control Governor, Senate, House and Supreme Court" next time redistricting is to occur.
"The Problem," as slides 7 and 8 spell out, is that there is no way that Democrats can achieve this result fairly through the democratic electoral process. As the slides say, it is "a very long shot proposition." Nor, as the UAW concedes, will redistricting reform by itself be approved by the voters.
The only hope then is to "change the rules," and do it by stealth, because if the people of Michigan knew how flagrantly anti-democratic the Democrat Party in Michigan was, they might cast the bums out into the political wilderness for another 25 years.
The Mackinac Center calls the Democrat maneuver a "a crassly partisan and breathtakingly cynical political maneuver."
I agree. It's time for Governor Granholm to demand the Michigan Democrat party fire Mark Brewer as chairman. This unethical and corrupt ballot proposal scheme is beyond the pale. If she fails to act then she risks tying her legacy forever to that of her chairman: two partisans who attempted to hijack the Michigan constitution and Michigan government for partisan gain.

Gwyneth Paltrow Collaborates With Butter London—Again!
When Goop teamed up with Butter London last year on an "exclusive trifecta of lacquers," we couldn't get our embarrassingly unpolished fingers on the Gwyneth-approved shades fast enough. Now, Goop x Butter London is back—and it's even better the second time around, as GP's giving us three different polish combos to choose from.
First, there's "Candy Coated," a mix of perfectly springtime-appropriate pastels that have us dreaming of Easter eggs. Meanwhile, "The Stones" is a set of jewel-toned metallics worthy of a rock star's wife (so...Gwyneth herself?). And "Starkers," as its name suggests, consists of three nude shades of varying depth. We like to think there's a Tony Stark/Iron Man joke in there somewhere, too.
Each set costs $40—and there's also a $28 top and base coat pairing you can pick up to finish off your manicure. Click through to shop the collab now, and let us know: which beauty company should Goop work with next?

Gossip Girl 100th Episode Review: OM-GG!by Steve Marsi at . Comments
There was really no way Gossip Girl's 100th episode, having been hyped for an entire season, while promising romance, tears, scandals, nods to the past and the mother of all shockers, could live up to expectations.
"G.G." didn't lack for drama, however.
In what has come to be sort of a make-or-break episode, Gossip Girl had a golden opportunity to redeem its recent mediocrity and prove itself worthy of all the passion and loyalty we've invested over the years.
While there were some gaping plot holes and disappointments tonight - especially depending on your couple of choice - you can't find fault with the pure number of twists, especially during the last five minutes.
Seriously ... anyone see that coming?!
Georgina Sparks is Gossip Girl. Wow. Talk about saving the best for last. We have approximately eight million unanswered questions regarding how she pulled this off undetected all these years ... but wow.
Who else could it be, though? Michelle Trachtenberg was hands down the best part of this episode, and every one she's been in. No other villain could compare mix it up with the Upper East Siders like Georgina.
From a plot standpoint, it actually made sense that Gossip Georgina was the one to torpedo the royal wedding. Much as she tried to pin it on Chuck, Serena, Dan and Nate, none of them would do that to B.
G? She made clear early on that she had no such reservations. With G.G.'s identity still unknown to all the characters, and Trachtenberg sticking around, it will be very interesting to see if she's unmasked by the gang.
Or if she's not really Gossip Girl. Our Round Table will tackle that tomorrow!
While her latest, greatest act of sabotage came out of left field, that's not exactly out of character for her. Every line out of her mouth was hilarious, but never more so than when she referred to their annual "shindig."
She really does show up without notice, and possesses an unparalleled way of stirring up trouble on a grand scale with seemingly no emotional attachment or conscience. Personality-wise, she's tailor made for the part.
Having been down for the count, Gossip Georgina saw an opportunity for a big comeback and taking down Blair was the prime opportunity. Awful as we all feel for B, you gotta hand it to Evil G for this coup.
Putting aside the logistical impossibility of an entire church full of people reading her blast simultaneously - some of us turn off our phones at weddings, Josh Safran!! - kudos to the show for keeping that under wraps.
The episode wasn't perfect, but it definitely injected the season with some fresh life, thanks to G.G. and the revelation that Louis is worse than a boring, uptight stiff that B doesn't really love. Much, much worse.
We all expected somebody would stop the wedding, and knew Gossip Girl would be involved. But the fact that B went through with it in the end, only to be deceived by her prince, is heartbreaking and surprising.
Where does Mrs. Grimaldi (it hurts to even say it!) go from here?
The final twist of the night came when the runaway bride was rescued not by Chuck, but by Dan. Chuck is clearly not out of the picture, but he wasn't on the other end of her distress call. Nice misdirection there.
From Dair and Chair, to Blouis and Derena, this episode gave fans on every side of the polarizing love square (pentagon?) something to talk about. It's hard to even know where to begin - or guess where we're headed.
Blair found out who wrote Louis' vows, but the author himself didn't spill the beans. Chuck confessed his true feelings for her, only to let her go rather than ruin her wedding. Two great guys she has here.
Call them her knights in shining ... purple suits and Muppet hair? In a way, G.G. may have made it possible for Blair to be with Chuck (or Dan) without the baggage of him having ruined her nuptials to Louis.
The interesting thing now is that Chuck and Dan won't necessarily be pitted against each other yet, but joining forces in helping Blair escape the marriage that shouldn't have been. And then there's Serena.
Oh, S. No one can say this episode contained any filler - the characters put it all out there, from G.G. to Chuck, to Nate and even Serena, who dropped a massive L-bomb on Dan ... and we don't mean lonely.
Serena's been doing a lot of soul searching (as has Nate, thanks to his run-in-with "Lola"), but sadly for her, this confession may not be reciprocated. It appears, at least for now, that his heart is with her best friend.
Funny how dreams can imitate real life, isn't it?
In non-romantic couple news, Serena and Blair's friendship actually played a role for once, and for that we are grateful, as that used to be a central component of the show that has been sorely lacking of late.
We'll see if that lasts, considering Dan's role in both of their lives. It's fitting in a way. It wouldn't be S and B without a heavy dose of conflict interspersed with genuine concern and love for one another.
A brief rundown of what else went down this week ...
Adult Entertainment: Rufus, Lily, Eleanor and Cyrus all stepped up big time. My living room definitely got a little dusty seeing Eleanor's scenes with Blair and Chuck, and Blair's with Harold and Cyrus.
All that heartstring-tugging, while often on the back burner in a show that thrives on scandal, gave this wedding-themed installment a much-needed sense of authenticity. For better or worse, and through thick and thin, family is family ... and tonight made the Gossip Girl parents feel extended family to the fans.
Also, a Princess Bride reference from Cyrus? Too easy ... and too awesome for words.
Many people (including this reviewer) mock Rufus and Lily for their declining relevance on the show, so watching them help salvage the wedding, briefly - and reminisce about their own - was a nice treat.
It Feels Like 2007 Again: The promised homages to the old days were there in spades, and incorporated in ways that actually fit the present-day story. Case in point: A memorable Gossip Girl quote ("I love you, always have, always will") which was spoken to a very different character long ago. Also, the cover of "Young Folks" at the onset was fun.
Louis: This guy sucks. However, while pretty much everyone agrees these two aren't meant to be, he showed a side of himself that at least made the character somewhat interesting for the first time ever. Between Louis and G.G., the show created two all-star villains this evening ... NJBC, unite!
The fashion: It was a feast for the eyes. Look for our style recap this week!
Nate and Charlie: It's gonna happen. Nice.
Ivy: Where the heck did she go? Hello?
All in all, it's hard to complain about tonight, which left us on the edge of our seats and genuinely wondering (and caring) where things are headed going forward for the first time in awhile.
Before we turn it over to your comments, here's next week's promo for "The Backup Dan" ...
What did you think of Monday night's Gossip Girl milestone event? Was it the best ever? Did it suck? Somewhere in between Was the big reveal anything like you expected? Discuss below!

@kevin With Blair returning to her old self I mean the s 1 Blair who broke up with Nate because he clearly didn't love her. The old Blair who slept with Chuck because she loved him. The old Blair who chose to be with Chuck not because he is the better choice than Nate but because she loved him and so she followed her heart. The s1 Blair was also intelligent and ambitious. Why isn't she attending university? Being a princess is not a fulfilling job in my mind. The old Blair who was also a bitch and who knew when someone was scheming behind her back. The old Blair would have known that something was wrong with Louis and the old Blair was a romantic she would have never married Louis. Now she is just indecisive, whiney and volatile, in short she is the old Serena. In comparison to this version of Blair, who makes a pact with God, Serena is a mature person and the voice of reason.
@ggfan I'm totally chill. LOL. I still thought it was weird. Hence my "eh" opinion of the whole sequence.
@kevin..they just will be endgame, no explanation needed...
the writers would be reaaaaaally stupid if CHAIR woudnt be endgame...there are more CHAIR fans, than other shippers on all the other shows, GG wouldnt be GG without CHUCK AND BLAIR TOGETHER!
i dont HATE dair fans, I am really nice, dont you think??
i tell them to stop shipping DAIR before they got their little hearts broken ;)
And despite the fake wedding, can we talk about how cute Blair's dads were?! "One father isn't enough." I had to admit, it was a touching moment given that Cyrus was a gentleman about letting Harold be the father of the bride, and how Blair saw that both of them had equal claim to that title.
@Ace what?! i actually really loved the dream sequence we're so used to seeing blairs's fear and apprehensions in her dream i think it was a breath of fresh air to see what goes inside serena's head and what bothers her..also, the guys dancing may not be perfect but it was something new.
@ggfan i agree with you..i've always been a serena fan and it feels weird to see her fail or things not go her way and it does makes her more relatable..i just wish she'll mature the same way chuck is maturing now.
Dair fans: Your ship is finally going to get their chance. In order for Dair to happen, you needed Blair to depend on him instead of Serena and Chuck. That has happened. Instead of being grateful that a newer ship gets a shot, Dair fans are trashing Chair endlessly. Look, she called DAN just now, and she left with him WHEN she's married and is in love with another man. What the heck else do you want to happen? Chair fans: O, ye of little faith! Has their grand passion ever been simple or easy? After Season 3, did you honestly think they'd still be in love with each other? What Blair did actually evens the score a little. It's sacrilege to marry someone who you don't love, hurting the one who you "love more each day" in the process. Chuck suffered immediate karmic consequences for the IP & CJ (shot!), & so has Blair (the prince & royal family now pwn her). My poor scheming manipulative babies. C's growing up. So will B.
@Ace LOL chill out dude, its not glee
So the dream sequence was a bit eh to me. I guess I didn't really see Blake bringing it as the infamous Marilyn Monroe. Seeing Ed, Chace, and Penn dancing seemed.... I don't know... kind of stiff? It was weird. Of course it's all a grain of salt since it was Serena's dream, but still... it was... eh. I think it could have been better.
I wouldn't say they have destroyed Blair's character. They have just used Blair's successes to make Serena look more sympathetic. Its win-win for both of them. We get to see our hero Blair finally get some success in life by having all the guys after her and having power handed to her. We also get to see Serena become more relatable as a main character as she fails in her career and love life.

Mom can't deal with 6-month-old, leaves him at West Side firehouse
BY TINA SFONDELES Staff Reporter firstname.lastname@example.com January 16, 2012 1:20PM
A distraught young mother left her 6-month-old baby with firefighters at a West Side firehouse Monday morning after telling them she couldn't deal with being a mother anymore. L-R are the firefighters who received the baby: Ed Stutz and Ryan Rivera. | Al Podgorski~Chicago Sun-Times

A distraught young mother left her 6-month-old with firefighters at a West Side firehouse Monday morning after telling them she couldn't deal with being a mother anymore, fire officials say.
The 19-year-old walked up to Engine 107 in the 1100 block of South California Avenue about 9 a.m. with a well-bundled and fed infant boy, Fire Media Affairs Director Larry Langford said.
The woman appeared to be distraught and said she wanted to leave the child "because she couldn't deal with her situation anymore," Langford said.
Firefighters did not question the woman and did not get her name. The "Safe Haven" law allows parents to drop off their infants to police stations, firehouses and hospitals, but only for children under 30 days old.
Still, firefighters did not refuse the 6-month-old child.
The mother stayed at the firehouse until the baby was taken to a hospital. Then, she just walked away, Langford said.

The New York crowd got the chance to practice for Miami's Art Basel on Friday night at the New Museum's party for its Generational Triennial. And if that was anything to judge by, the fair should be more energetic than ever. The top floor of the museum was packed, and even though the Triennial doesn't open until February, guests like Prabal Gurung, Gaia Repossi, Lily Kwong, Casey Fremont, Monique Pean and Neville Wakefield and Fiona Scarry got a taste of what was to come with a performance by artist Wu Tsang. Meanwhile, museum director Lisa Phillips and artists Kalup Linzy, Raashad Newsome and Abigail DeVille looked on.
But the mix of margaritas, a killer view (from the museum's top floor) and old-school club music seems to have been the most potent cocktail: "I really just want to dance," said one guest, eyeing a pocket of open space. Soon enough, that's what everyone was doing.

If you're looking for somewhere in Glasgow city centre for excellent healthy eating options, then Martha's on St Vincent Street is definitely the place to be. A delicious cornucopia of nutritious food, this haven of health offers daily specials to the Glaswegian public and an array of popular dishes that offer a plethora of health benefits; be it gluten-free, foods lower in saturated fat or food to keep you fuller for longer.
The team of hardworking staff at Martha's are guided by Dr. Carrie Ruxton, an award winning health-writer, dietician and nutritionist. With a PhD in Child Nutrition and over 100 published articles on diet and health, Carrie assists the team in assuring the food served in store has the ability to tingle your taste buds, as well as satisfy nutritional check-points.
Martha's serves a generous menu of tasty foods, that is obvious, but their crème de la crème is their Red Dragon Pork. Scotch Pork slow roasted for 15 hours served with sesame, chilli, ginger and spring onion. This dish will blow your mind. It's a gorgeous blend of sweet, tender pork with the heat and spices of the thai influenced veg. Whenever I go to Martha's, this is the dish I choose over the rest every time. Low in saturated fat and containing one of your 5 a day, this is a must-have lunchtime meal for the Glasgow citizens. At only £4.95 for the main course option, it is clear why this 558 calorie dish is the fans' favourite at Martha's.
Don't be fooled that just because this is exceptional healthy food that it's being sourced anywhere else but in our fine lands, as you'd be quite mistaken. All of Martha's produce is sourced locally, be it MacCallans of Troon's fish, fairtrade coffee from Mathew Algie or multi-award winning quality assured meat from Simon Howie Farm & Butchers. Martha's also knows that certain foods are better at different points of the year, and changes the menu seasonally to reflect that.
Martha's mission is to reinvent the idea of fast food. I think they are definitely achieving this in their every day running. Bringing health and nutrition to a fast paced city is what they've done, and it was something that was badly needed. I think Martha's is an exceptional little gem of Glasgow, and this place deserves as much recognition as possible.

The Japanese Women's Leadership Initiative (JWLI) Fellows Program wrapped up its sixth year of programming at the Simmons College School of Management in September. The goal of the program is to help Japanese women move from traditional roles and become leaders of social change in their home country.
Each year, four Japanese women are selected from a pool of applicants in Japan for participation. The program aims to teach the Fellows about the important role of nonprofit organizations in American society, while helping them learn about themselves as women leaders and advocates for social change in Japanese society.
The women receive hands-on training from executives at leading Boston-based nonprofits, such as Ellis Memorial and the Women's Lunch Place. They attend tutorials and classroom lectures at the School of Management, and develop action plans for implementation upon their return to Japan.
The JWLI Program is funded by the Fish Family Foundation through Simmons College Trustee Atsuko Toko Fish and her husband, Lawrence Fish. Fish decided to fund the program with the hope that Japanese women could learn the American model of nonprofit organizations and bring that knowledge back to their home country of Japan.
"Women in Japan are still largely subservient to men, particularly in the business sector. We're helping women step forward as leaders," said Fish. "I hear glass ceilings – and walls – breaking in Japan, and it's making a loud noise."
SOM Dean Cathy Minehan is also pleased with the program and its inherent connection to Simmons.
"Our partnership is mission driven," she said. "Atsuko shares our commitment to women and principled leadership and is 100 percent focused on the success of the JWLI program."

Pinetrees is an ideal gateway to the beauty and adventure of Lord Howe Island. Most of the island's outdoor activities are world-class and only a short bike ride away. Guests regularly comment on how much they can do in a short amount of time.
Our staff are experienced fisherman, surfers, walkers, photographers, golfers and divers. Every morning at breakfast, we'll recommend where to go and what to do, depending on the weather and your level of enthusiasm. Some guests are happy to relax under one of the boatshed umbrellas, swim in the lagoon, and absorb the panorama of two of Australia's most dramatic mountains. Other guests like to keep themselves busy – they might catch a 15kg kingfish, walk through ancient subtropical forest, surf perfect waves or dive on the southernmost coral reef in the Pacific Ocean. Guests can also challenge themselves on the island's spectacular golf course.
Very few destinations in the world offer spectacular snorkelling 30 metres from the beach.
Photographers are the most enthusiastic of all visitors to Lord Howe, and they are serious...
bird watching
Lord Howe is one of the most amazing 'birdo' destinations in the world with 130 recorded species...
"For total relaxation, a beautiful environment, a total learning experience related to the ecology and fabulous dining experiences."

Editors' Top PicksSee All
At $1,300 (€1,250 in Europe; pricing for the UK and Australia is not yet available, but it converts to £760/AU$1,380) for just 1TB of storage space, the LaCie Little Big Disk Thunderbolt 2 is the most expensive external storage device you can find. But if performance is of the utmost importance, you'll be happy to pay it.
Sporting dual high-performance solid-state drives (SSDs) on the inside, the new Little Big Disk is by far the fastest external drive to date. Additionally, its compact and rugged design means you can easily bring that performance with you.
If you need to do data-intensive work such as editing 4K video -- especially doing so in the field -- the LaCie Little Big Disk Thunderbolt 2 will make your life a lot easier. Consumers with less of an extreme need for speed, however, will find those on this list of top Thunderbolt-based storage devices to be great alternatives.
The new LaCie Little Big Disk Thunderbolt 2 looks very similar to its predecessor, with its rugged and distinctive full-metal body design. On the front is LaCie's signature round blue button that works as a power indicator. On the back, there are two Thunderbolt ports and a power port. The drive supports Thunderbolt 2 but will also work with Thunderbolt. Both standards share the same cable and port.
The drive comes with a detachable stand that enables it to work in an upright position, but you can use it without the stand in any orientation you choose.
Drive type
Thunderbolt 2 external drive
Connector options
Available capacities
Product dimensions
5.5 x 1.6 x 3.3 inches (40 x 140 x 85 mm)
1.4 lbs (620g)
OSes supported
Mac OS X 10.6.8 or later
Software included
Intego BackUp Manager Pro, LaCie Private Public
Despite its compact design, the drive is not bus-powered and requires a separate power adapter. The power adapter itself is about half the size of the drive. Still, the whole package is compact enough for you to easily fit it into a backpack or a briefcase.
The new LaCie comes with wall socket converters included for many different parts of the world, as well as a foot-long Thunderbolt cable. This is a welcome change, since with the previous model, you were required to provide your own cable.
Flexible RAID, Mac-oriented
On the inside, the LaCie now sports two 512GB PCI-express Gen 2 SSDs in a RAID 0 setup, as opposed to the regular standard SATA SSD found in the previous model. You can also switch these SSDs into a RAID 1 configuration for better data protection at the expense of reduced performance.

Birds by name
Conservation status: Amber
A smallish wader with contrasting brown upperparts and white underparts. It habitually bobs up and down, known as 'teetering', and has a distinctive flight with stiff, bowed wings. Its presence is often betayed by its three-note call which it gives as it flies off.
Actitis hypoleucos
Sandpipers and allies (Scolopacidae)
In summer is breeds along fast rivers and by lakes, lochs and reservoirs in Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and the north of England. In winter it may be seen along the south coast, and on spring and autumn passage it can be found elsewhere in the UK, near any freshwater areas and on some estuaries.
Summer visitors arrive in March and April and leave the breeding grounds in July and August, with the young following in September. Autumn passage birds are seen from July to September and wintering birds can be seen from October onwards.
* UK breeding is the number of pairs breeding annually. UK wintering is the number of individuals present from October to March. UK passage is the number of individuals passing through on migration in spring and/or autumn.
