Since Monday is rapidly approaching, I might as well reflect on my weekend. This one was a good one, though it really was focused on one main thing—my hair. Saturday was another wash day. Flashback to three weeks back when I took my twists out and I could not find my favorite deep conditioner posted below:
Therefore, my hair was perturbed and uncooperative that initial wash day. The following weekend, I still could not find that stuff (I usually re-up at TJ Maxx). As I shopped with my fiance who was in town visiting, he looked perplexed and relayed that I should just grab another kind of conditioner. *Sigh* I had to explain to him that it didn't work like that and that my hair was choosy and not fickle when it came to what products she gels with (pun intended). The following week, I was in Sprouts getting some more "goodies" for my Daniel fast when I went to the hair aisle out of curiosity. Ta-da! There she was, my lovely Giovanni <3.
After deep conditioning, I had the style below in mind which I had been eyeing for quite a while:
To achieve this goddess braid, I finally followed the directions in the video, even though I reallllllly didn't feel like doing much after washing and deep conditioning. I gave in and blow dried my hair on medium so that I could get my hair stretch out a bit. I've attempted the look above before without stretching my hair, but my curls always made the braid look lumpy and sloppy and I didn't have the length I needed due to shrinkage. Luckily, my hair was in mini sections any way, so it was actually a pretty quick blow dry:
I copied the video as much as I could and was able to get my style for the week. I will wear this to the gym and work and hopefully, it will hold up. I am not very good with my hands, but I'm going to try to attempt more styles in the future after exploring more in the YouTube matrix.
Did you have any weekend highlights? New hair care discoveries? Share in the comments! :-)
Meaning casual day for me. I opted for bright colors today in the office. I am wearing a bright hot pink cover up that belongs to my middle sister. She got it from H&M. I am also wearing great capri work pants from New York and Company and low black heels from Alfani (not pictured). Check out my accessories below though!
Have a great weekend!
"And when I wake up, everything I went through will be beautiful." -Jill Scott
I'm awake and I'm thankful for:
1. Family, near and far. I'm thankful that my familial network is huge and even though we are technically not all related by blood and many are my "cousins," the outpouring of love is one of the best gifts I have in this life.
2. Health. I am well and able-bodied. I can see, I can hear, I can speak, I can walk. It's the little things that are a blessing.
3. Love and an open heart to receive love. Real, unconditional love.
4. Friends, near and far. Can't express how thankful I am that my paths crossed with the friends I hold dear. Now, if only I could plan more vacays to see them more…
5. It's almost the weekend and I'm always thankful for that.
Thoughts? What are you thankful for? Feel free to share in the comments :-)
I wrote a post about seasons here on our former blog about law school. Since then, I have changed and life has changed, thankfully. I was still in my early 20's, still a student etc. It doesn't seem so long ago, but life moves on and morphs and you adapt. And now as a fully fledged adult, the rules are still the same; life moves on and morphs. Adapting is in progress.
The past few months have been a roller coaster.
Toward the end of summer, I was at a peak of absolute euphoria. The man of my prayers asked me to be his wife. I saw a new addition to my family born into the world and wondered at the miracle of birth. I spent precious time with family and friends.
As the season began to change, life continued forward and brought deep valleys. The death of a very dear loved-one and the heartache that follows. Seeing loved ones in emotional pain.
It felt like I got a crash course of all the various cycles and stages of life all at once. The changes that this season have brought are known and unknown in the sense that while there have been evident changes, there is no way to predict the effect the changes will have. What I know for sure is that every single moment is precious because life is fleeting. Everyone needs that reminder. Below are my goals for October which I hope will truly make me get the most out of life this month.
Goal 1: Complete the Daniel Fast
I am a Christian. I was raised in the Lutheran church my whole life. As time moved on and I went to undergrad and law school, I desired more than my parent's "old time religion." I wanted to discover Christ on my own. I'm still a work in progress, however, I truly believe that I am on the cusp of being more spiritually grounded now than in previous years. To my surprise, my church announced that they would be participating in the Daniel Fast starting September 28 and lasting 40 days. I'm a glad participant, though I am reallllly adjusting to not eating my normal foods. I have some hunger pangs yet I feel really good inside if that makes sense. Also, since I am coping with grief, I've been more in tune with my emotions and feelings and pouring my heart out to God during my devotionals. I feel more centered. My goal is to follow through and complete this fast while growing stronger in my relationship with Christ.
Goal 2: Reach out to family and friends via TELEPHONE
This is a typical goal for me, but one that has not been conquered. I keep in touch with very few people via telephone (Mom, siblings, fiance, a friend or two). My goal is to reconnect with friends and family that I really hold dear but that get lost in the shuffle. It's always nice to know someone out there is thinking of you, plus, it's nice to hear what's going on in another's life from them directly and not through the grapevine.
Goal 3: Workout consistently for my physical health and complete this October ab challenge
This month, my workouts are important, but they are not the end all be all. I don't want to beat myself up for missing a workout or two. I just want to try to be more active and to listen to my body and rest when need be, especially since my diet has changed dramatically. I am doing my own thing this month! Meaning no programs to follow except this ab challenge from my fave fitness Instagrammer @TameikaG.
Goal 4: Get the Ball Rolling On Wedding Planning
I'm engaged!
Woo hoo. I gave myself all of September to soak it all in and now it is officially time to get to work on these nuptials. I have created a Pinterest account and now I am trying to set up designated times to coordinate wedding planning with my fiance since we are still long-distance loves.
Goal 5: Live & Blog More
Lastly, I want to live. I work full time so on the weekends, I am always down for being a bum. I want to try to get out more and explore the bay area. There is a lot to offer and much that I am missing. I get Groupon and Living social deals on the regular so I should be able to get out the house and steal away a few times at a minimum. And I want to blog more consistently so I took a page from Kyra's book and will be participating in this blogging challenge!
Thoughts? What are your goals for this month? Have you experienced big changes recently for better or worse?
Feel free to share below :-)
*Note all links in this post are for reference only
Still loosely following the September Blogging Challenge!
7:30am - Alarm goes off. Groan and hit snooze, per usual.
7:40am – My husband is particularly chatty this morning. I lay in bed and we talk about who is going to pick up my mother-in-law's puppy from doggy day care, what we should eat for dinner and how he woke me up taking antacids at 2 in the morning…you know, normal stuff. I spent too much time talking so I don't have time to make breakfast before leaving for the office.
8:30am – Arrive at work. Snack on grapes and have coffee to prevent my stomach from freaking out. I'm usually a wake up and eat immediately person.
9:00am – Have a client meeting first thing this morning. Spend about an hour with them and send them off with their documents.
10:15am – Finally have a break to heat up a breakfast burrito. I had this one from PJ Organics for the first time. It was really good! I'll buy it again in the future.
10:30am-1:00pm - Work (which obviously includes catching up on blogs/news)
1:00pm – Head home for lunch. I'm so spoiled living 10 minutes away from my office and it is so nice to be able to come home and eat real food and lay on the couch in the middle of the day! I had a leftover shrimp and noodle dish that my mother-in-law made that I bulked up with some raw spinach (eating my veggies!)
1:00pm-5:00pm – More work. Have an initial client meeting at 3 p.m. and work on some things for probate. Sip green tea throughout the afternoon.
5:45pm – Arrive home. Take the puppy for a short walk. Eat a chocolate coconut Luna bar for a snack and watch 2 episodes of Gilmore Girls (Obsessed. Forever and always. Also, did you hear the news?!?!?!)
8:00pm – Finally sit down for dinner. On the menu: buffalo chicken burgers courtesy of whole foods, spicy sweet potato fries, and broccoli…which I burned so only ate 2 pieces of.
8:30pm – Collapse on the couch to watch Coffee Town for the third time. It's embarrassing how much I love this movie
9:45pm – Shower/get ready for bed
10:30pm – Lights out!
Confession Time: I am addicted to hair/makeup videos on YouTube.
Confession Time (part 2): Getting married this summer gave me an excuse to spend an absurd amount of money on makeup and feel completely justified in doing so.
So, without further ado, let's get into my faves!
1. MAC Fix+ Spray. This is a setting spray that adds that "dewy" finish. My skin is pretty oily in the summer so the dew occurs naturally, but this will continue to be a staple as we head into fall/winter and my skin gets dryer. It works great as a setting spray, my makeup stayed put all day/night on my wedding day. I also sometimes just spray this on my face when my skin looks dry and I'm wearing no makeup. Great price too!
2. MAC Mineralize Skinfish in Cheeky Bronze. I love this! I use this product as a blush, highlight (on cheekbones and inner corner) and also use it as eye shadow. A very versatile product, especially for deeper skintones.
3. NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Caramel. Hands down my favorite concealer ever. This is an awesome creamy, blendable formula (I apply it with my beauty blender). I don't think I'll be trying a new concealer for a long while.
4. Amrezy Palette for Anastasia Beverly Hills. This was a post-wedding makeup purchase, but for such a beautiful palette priced at only $29, I had to pick it up. I don't think any palette has topped the LORAC Pro for me, but the colors in this palette are beautiful and unlike any others that I own. The formula of the shadows are great and the design of the palette is perfect for travel!
5. GLAMGLOW Supermud Clearing Treatment. Let's not even talk about the price on this stuff (I charged it to the game). I discovered this mask while browsing in Sephora and picked it up based on the rave reviews online. I bought it about a month before my wedding when my skin was going bananas due to stress. I single handedly attribute having clear skin on my wedding day to this mask. It is AMAZING. I used it 2-3 times per week leading up to the wedding, but now use it about once a week. If you struggle with acne I would get a sample of this at Sephora and see if it works for you!
That's it for my summer beauty favorites! If you're trying to step your makeup game up, check out my fave channels on YouTube

Beauty trend you're looking forward to for fall? Personally, I can't wait to break out my vampy lipsticks
Any cheekbone highlighters that you swear by for deeper skin tones? I'm on the hunt.
Hi everyone! Today I want to talk about my goals for the month of September. Something about the start of fall and the "back to school" commotion got me thinking about goals. I'll be honest, I've never been a huge goal setter, even though I know the benefits of writing things down and having visual reminders of what we want to accomplish. I guess most of my life, up until recently, my goals were school, more school, and even more school, bar exam, get a job….then what? Now that I've been employed in a legal job (thank goodness) for almost a year, I think now is a good time to evaluate some things I want to accomplish.
1. Make time to cultivate my creative side
Let me just put this out there. My job does not leave much room to be creative. And now that the wedding is over, I've realized that I was using that as a creative outlet and I need to find other things to replace that. For me, being creative can be a lot of things. Some of the things I want to do are devote more time to blogging/writing. I also want to make time to do more yoga. I haven't been since before the wedding and I always start to feel a little off-kilter if I don't make time for a regular yoga practice. Lastly, I want to continue reading for pleasure regularly. I've done pretty good with this lately but I want to keep it up. If you're on a Goodreads, add me (username Kyra SIms)!
2. Get back to regular exercise
I can count on one hand the number of times I've exercised since getting married. I'm not going to beat myself up about it; it was important to enjoy being a newlywed and soak up the time we spent going out to dinner and drinking too many glasses of champagne :) I don't regret it, and wouldn't take it back, but it's time to get back on track. One of the big reasons (read: excuses) that I haven't been working out regularly is because I've had analysis paralysis trying to find a new gym. Since I moved across town, going to the gym I was working out at previously isn't a realistic option since it takes me 25 minutes minimum to get there. There's a gym near our apartment that offers BodyPump classes (my absolute go-to group exercise class that I took while in law school) that I will most likely join. It is so important for my mental and physical health to exercise regularly and I have to make time for it.
3. Eat more vegetables
I do a pretty good job of making rough meal plans that I keep in mind when grocery shopping. I've also done pretty decent at cooking at home during the week and going out only on the weekend. But, I've definitely been slacking on my vegetable intake and I am going to try and be more conscious to include a vegetable in all of my lunches and dinners and one snack per day.
4. Go on 2-3 walks per week
This goal might begin and end in September because winter in Michigan is coming (siighhhhhh). But, my husband and I have been going on walks some evenings during the week and it has been so nice. Talking about our days without the distraction of technology has been great for connecting after work. Plus, the weather is still decent and fall is my favorite season.
5. Strive for balance
This will always be an ongoing goal, but life changes make it more difficult. I could devote a whole blog post (let me know in the comments if you'd be interested) on how life has changed since getting married. As I figure out my new identity as a wife, I also have to maintain/juggle my other relationships as a daughter, sister, aunt, employee, etc. Equally as important I have to maintain and nurture the relationship I have with myself. No easy task but something we all struggle with!
I think 5 goals is enough and attainable, nothing super lofty. I should mention that if you're a fellow blogger and looking for new content I was inspired to write this post from Girl Meets Life September Blogging Challenge. Check it out!
What are your goals for September?
Does the start of fall signify new beginnings for you?
Are you a frequent goal setter? If so, do you write them down, have a vision board, Pinterest board, etc? Let me know in the comments!
So, I know I promised you guys a straight hair routine after posting my curly hair routine (check that out if you haven't already!). I think styling my hair curly or straight takes about the same amount of time initially, but when wearing it straight I don't worry too much about upkeep until my next wash, unlike with curly hair. Anyway, here are the deets!
Anytime I plan on using heat on my hair, I know I need to clarify. I still stay away from shampoos containing sulfates. I usually use Trader Joe's Tea Tree Tingle to shampoo and then follow up with a very basic ACV (Apple Cider Vinegar) mix to make sure my hair is squeaky clean without using detergents! My ACV mix is about 1-2 tablespoons of ACV mixed with ~1 cup of filtered water. I put this in an applicator bottle and spray it onto my hair and scalp and let it sit for a few minutes before rinsing.
This step is the same as my curly hair routine, but I don't divide my hair into sections as I'm not doing as intense of a detangling. I use Herbal Essences "Hello Hydration,"Aussie "Moist," or Trader Joe's "Nourish Spa" and a wide tooth comb to gently remove any knots.
Deep Conditioning
If I'm straightening my hair I use one of my more high-end products to deep condition. I don't know if it actually makes a difference but it makes me feel better! Right now I'm using It's a 10 Miracle Hair Mask that I found on sale at Nordstrom Rack. I apply product LIBERALLY and sit under my hooded dryer for a minimum of 30 minutes before rinsing.
Before blow drying I section my hair off in about 8-10 sections and apply a light leave in conditioner/pre-blow dry product/heat protectant. Right now I alternate between HealthySexyHair Soy Tri-Wheat Leave In ,Frederic Fekkai Glossing Cream, and Aveda Brilliant Damage Control Spray. I want to emphasize that I don't use much product when I do this, as I find I get the best end-result when I don't use much product when flat-ironing my hair (which is the complete opposite of what I do with my curly hair!). After applying a leave-in I blow dry on high speed, medium heat. I used to use a blow-dryer with a comb attachment, but now I just use a brush to avoid the blow dryer coming into direct contact with my hair.
Flat Ironing
When I finish blow-drying I section my hair again, in roughly the same size sections as before blow drying. I then further divide each section into smaller pieces and only flat iron my hair in about 1/2 inch chunks. I use a Babybliss Nano Titanium flat iron that I love and was recommended by my hair stylist when I still lived in D.C. I've tried using the "chase method" (check it out on YouTube if you don't know what I'm talking about), but I haven't really gotten the hang of it. I usually just revert to how I've always flat ironed my hair, meaning that I NEVER get my hair bone straight, it always has some type of curl at the end, which is fine with me! Here are a couple pics of my straight hair…
Since I always end up with some type of curl in my hair, to preserve my hair overnight for the first few days I usually pin curl my hair. Once the curls wear themselves out I wrap it at night until I decide to wash my hair. If my ends start to feel dry I use a very light-weight oil (right now it's Grapeseed oil) but only on the ends before tying it up at night.
Straight Hair and Working Out
I'll be honest with you, I definitely consider the intensity of my workouts when I've put in all that effort to straighten my hair! For the first few days I will limit myself to yoga, weights, light cardio on the elliptical. or a routine I can do at home with a scarf on my head! After a few days I usually get over it and go back to my normal more high intensity routine and just wear my hair in a bun or a ponytail until my next wash day.
I hope this was helpful for you! If you have any questions or comments about my straight hair routine leave them below! And please comment with any new hair products you've been loving…I'm a product junkie.
They say you can't out-train a bad diet and I wholeheartedly believe that statement is true.
As of late, I've realized that for the past months, my food intake has not been so great. I've had too many cheat meals or fell off the fitness train (worked out inconsistently) or drank a lil too much wine or Heineken. My progress was so sloooooow. For a time, I was worried that my metabolism was destroyed or something from all my yo-yo eating habits. Then, about three and a half weeks ago, I really evaluated what I've been eating, especially since my workouts as of late have been pretty consistent. Finally, I decided:
This might sound drastic but it really hasn't been. I've just been doing my version of clean eating and it helps me know exactly what I'm consuming. This means that I've been cooking a lot more. I cook on the weekends and I cook in bulk so that I have food to take to work EVERYDAY. I don't play around with bringing my lunches/snacks and I have my handy dandy Trader Joe's bag to prove it:
Verdict? I think it's working so far! I lost 5 lbs the first week and 1 lbs last week ever since implementing this "program." Also, I've been able to see more cuts in my physique from all the weights I've been doing. What do I eat?
Sample Meal Schedule.
Workout – 6:30AMish – 7:30AM
Breakfast 8:00AMish — 3/4 cup seasoned egg whites (I've been using fresh jalapenos, onions, bell peppers); Eziekiel bread (sesame seed is my current favorite); Strawberry protein smoothie on the go or 1/2 cup of oats + truvia + 1tbsp Peanut butter + Cinammon
Snack: 10AM ish– A serving of Almonds
Lunch: 12:30PMish—2 servings of seasoned chicken thighs + cup of brocolli
Snack: Whenever I'm hungry toward the end of the work day— Strawberries or a HEALTHY Trader Joe's salad
Dinner: 7:00ish Turkey burger (bunless) with a salad and usually with a slice of cheese (sorry not cutting this out just yet)
Sleep: 10:00ish (this is vital so I included it, I sleep early because I wake up super early these days)
**Note, I switch my meals up but this is the most recent plan & I only drink water besides the smoothie I have for breakfast**
As for workouts, I am currently on Week 8 of the FitFreakProject. It's going well and I have 4 weeks left. I'm excited to complete the program and to see how far I can push myself. And Saturdays are reserved for Bikram and I've been burning tons of calories every session. My goal is to just keep it up, be forgiving of myself when I slip up, and to get back on track ASAP. For example, I went to a family function this past weekend and there was a ton of RICE ( coconut rice, jellof rice, etc. p.s. I LOVE RICE) and other delicious high calorie foods. I gave myself some leeway to eat up, but I didn't stuff my face.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what I call victory because I have a tendency to just binge out of control sometimes. The next day, I was back on point and on Monday, I was in the gym per usual. It was a great feeling to finally be able to jump back on track and not ruin my progress.
Thoughts? Do you believe in the 80/20 rule? Have your experiences with the rule been similar to mine? Share in the comments!

Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. Serving as your Deputy Mayor and Councilmen is an honor and privilege, and a job we take very seriously. We put together this site to share with you our vision and goals for Scotch Plains. Scotch Plains is a great town, with wonderful community organizations, a strong school system, and beautiful neighborhoods. Yet we must work hard to keep up what is good and at the same time move Scotch Plains forward.
We know residents are concerned with the high property tax burden that exists here as it does throughout New Jersey. This year we were able to pass the lowest municipal tax increase in over a decade. However, your taxes still went up a lot, as the county government and school board raised their tax levies considerably.
We favor shared services as a way to minimize future tax increases. We favor merging the police department with Fanwood's police department. However, we continue to strongly oppose the "Joint Meeting" proposal made by Mayor Glover and the Democrats last year.
We believe the Library is an important service that needs to be maintained. We restored funding to the Library this year, reversing the cuts made by Mayor Glover and the Democrats in 2013, so that it could go back to being open 7 days a week.
We also believe that there are real opportunities to revitalize our downtown commercial district in a way that will draw more people and business to the area. Ultimately that will spur new development which will in turn create new or larger rateables that expand the tax base, to the benefit of the residential taxpayer. In light of the failure of the downtown SID (Special Improvement District), we have created an ad-hoc subcommittee comprised of knowledgeable commercial developers, planners and attorneys, as well as existing commercial district business owners and representatives of our residential neighborhoods. We look forward to them completing their work and bring policy recommendations to the council.
Scotch Plains is, and must continue to be, a wonderful town in which to raise a family. Attracting new families is what supports our property values, and an excellent school system is paramount. While the schools are the direct responsibility of the elected Board of Education, we seek to work well and closely with them on matters of shared concern, such as pedestrian safety and recreation.
Scotch Plains has seen considerable improvements to our recreation facilities, and appropriate investment in and management of these facilities and programs are quality-of-life issues that we will continue to prioritize.
Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns. We hope we can earn your trust and support to lead Scotch Plains forward in the coming years, and ask for your vote on November 4th, 2014.
Mickey, Bo and Llewellyn

Sartorial take on 'Midsummer's Night Dream
Monday, August 4, 2014
DOVER — In the late 16th century, William Shakespeare penned "A Midsummer Night's Dream."
The production company was Dover's Theatre Unmasked augmented by several more talented actors. It was presented as a part of the Greater Dover Chamber of Commerce's annual Cochecho Arts Festival.
The sartorial theme was a familiar one, but not under these circumstances. Gone were the draped looking dresses for women, and the over the top frippery for the men.
The fairies still had wings, but that's about the only thing familiar in this version of the play, for the actors, at different times were garbed in tennis or Bermuda shorts and fatigue jackets. Seen during the two hour production were leather trimmed vests, many pairs of sunglasses and familiar gestures. High fives were seen, as well as a raised fist with the accompanying smile of its owner. It was the 70's, the 1970's that is.
The actors were astoundingly proficient in their roles (most of whom played at least two roles).
Replete with lovers, members of the royal court, and unrequited love, the theme of the play once again shows the talent William Shakespeare had for human emotions, and how incisive and ageless his work is.
"We show that it is not the costumes, but Shakespeare's work that is the focus," explained Aimee Blessing, Co-Director of Theatre Unmasked.
A comment by Josh Brown as Puck during the play's second act describes the play seen by many in Dover this past weekend. "A merrier hour was never wasted there."

|I am remembering them as being about the same or slightly shorter than Blackjack, but not as quality. If scrubbed up, they would be ok though, and they need an anchor. trickier feet and jamming than Blackjack, especially when damp and dirty, lol

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Thai Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra may be removed from office if the nation's Constitutional Court today rules she abused her position by transferring a top security official, a verdict that would deepen the nation's political crisis.
Phanuwat Treekunakorn has seen first hand the difference 92 U.S. cents can make to the lives of ordinary Thais. The flat fee to see a doctor helped turn him into a loyal supporter of Thaksin Shinawatra and his family.
The general behind yesterday's declaration of martial law in Thailand says he hasn't launched a coup. Whether he's proved right will depend on the nation's judges and appointed senators.
Cod Satrusayang's family has found a way out of their Thai crisis. They've stopped talking about politics.
Thailand's junta is taking a page out of Thaksin Shinawatra's policy playbook, adopting some of the populist measures that drove his political success in a move that may help stabilize growth for the remainder of 2014.
Thailand's government is preparing to deploy 20,000 security personnel to counter a plan by protesters to create traffic chaos in central Bangkok in a push to force Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra from office.
Schools were shut and international television channels were off air as stations broadcast military logos and periodic army statements, a day after Thailand's military seized control following a six-month political stalemate that has sapped economic growth.
Thailand's military junta ordered 35 more people to report to it by this afternoon or risk arrest, including ruling party members ousted in the coup, academics and a former protest leader who once seized Bangkok's airports.
Former Thai Premier Thaksin Shinawatra said his sister's government will avoid conflicts like those that led to his ouster in a 2006 coup, even as it presses ahead with efforts to curb the power of the courts.
"Thai strongmen have long wanted to dignify their illegal hold on the country by assuming the title of prime minister."

Cyprus banks to stay closed 2 more days
|A man uses the ATM machine as another man sits outside of a closed branch of Laiki bank in capital Nicosia, Cyprus, Monday. Cyprus clinched a last-minute solution to avert imminent financial meltdown early Monday after it agreed to slash its oversized banking sector and inflict hefty losses on wealthy depositors in troubled banks to secure a 10 billion euro ($13 billion) bailout. (AP Photo/Petros Karadjias)
NICOSIA, Cyprus — Cyprus has extended the closure of its banks for two more days — until Thursday — a sudden postponement that comes after the country's leaders spent days struggling to come up with a plan to raise the money needed to secure an international bailout.

Try these tips for a healthier walking program. The proper form will help you reach your fitness goals and keep you injury-free.
Wait a minute. Isn't walking about the simplest form of exercise there is? It lets you check your coordination at the door, which is why you turned to it in the first place, right? Just one foot in front of the other with an eye out for potholes, trucks, and snarling dogs, right?
Tips for a Healthier Walking Program. Careful, speed racer. How you go about putting those feet out in front of you could make or break your walking program, especially if you're serious about getting fit. The more you walk, in fact, the more likely any irregularity in your walking form is going to sneak up from behind and "bite" you with an injury.
But your style is fine, you say--the same as it's been since childhood. Don't let those be famous last words.
"Most walkers aren't aware when they're walking inefficiently and making it harder on themselves," says Cambridge, MA-based fitness walking and racewalking coach Ken Mattsson. "Many people jolt and jerk when they walk, for example," Mattsson says. Or they swing their arms out too much. Such offenses might sound minor, but over time, their effects can mount up and can put you down with a walking injury.
But help is here. To keep you stepping in proper style, we asked Mattsson and other leading walking coaches to give us the rundown on the most common mistakes walkers make and advice on how to correct them. Don't take another step until you've checked it out!
"Many walkers get hurt because they simply don't walk erect," says Bonnie Stein, a racewalking coach in Redington Shores, FL. The two most common posture problems? Walking bent over with the head down, or its opposite: strolling leaning back. Either way, you set yourself up for injury, Stein says.
Leaning too far forward or backward throws your body off balance, putting undue stress on your lower back, says Stein. The result? Strain and pain.
How To Fix It Don't look down--or up.To straighten up, hold your head high, so your neck and the rest of your spine form a straight line. Don't tuck your chin into your neck, and look well ahead of you. (Experts' advice on the distance ranges from 10 to 30 feet ahead.) Also make sure your shoulders are relaxed, and your stomach is tucked. A way to check yourself, says Stein, is to take a big breath every 5 minutes, and exhale strongly. Notice how your shoulders drop? That's how you want to carry yourself.
Check your alignment.To avoid repeating old habits, mentally check the alignment of key body parts every so often, says Stein. As you step forward with your right foot, for example, check that your right ankle, knee, hip, and shoulder are in a stack. Do the same for your left foot.

Staff Abuse
- 0Nov 11, '07 by fawnsternurseAny feedback or recourse for staff abuse by patients?
I have worked as a travel nurse in 3 State hospitals in NC.
This last one I am working at has had more staff being jumped and beaten by patients than anywhere else I have ever worked at or have heard about . All of the other nurses that have worked elsewhere agree.
We have had Doctors being choked to death and a collar bone broken.
We had a female nurse who was jumped and choked and her glasses broken.
A young female HCT who was choked to the point of being unconcious and blue.
This is not just randon , and there are many more incidents that I am not describing here. I do understand that psychiatry can be risky and violent.
This has been beyond that.
There are many incidents of staff abuse that we have seen and I am wondering if there is any recourse other than quiting which really doesnt address or solve the problem.
This is a major issue and although i am not able to discuss this on a deeper level the fact is we are all very concerned and it doesnt seem that this is being adressed in a proactive way.
Thank you
- 0Nov 12, '07 by Alois WolfDon't they have haldol/ativan in your hospital?
- 0Nov 12, '07 by traumaRUs, MSN, APRN, CNS AdminSounds like there is a security deficit in those facilities! Also - in IL, a mentally ill patient was successfully prosecuted and placed in a locked Dept of Corrections facility after choking an RN and causing permanent brain damage.
- 1Nov 15, '07 by flightnurse2bi think i know exactly which hospital in NC you are talking about... i did my mental health rotation there. had a HCT get his eye knocked out one night, another night a female HCT almost raped and a patient stab another patient with a shank he made from a pencil. there is a huge lack of security there and staffing is always an issue. there is a plan of closing it down by next march.... which is even kinda more frightening, cause they dont have a place for all those people to go.....
- 0Nov 17, '07 by ThunderwolfSo, sad and tragic.
Inpatient psych first rule of thumb is safety first...otherwise, it is all moot and counter therapeutic/productive.
If reforms in basic safety cannot be met, best the facility close...for all's sake.
- 0Nov 17, '07 by Blackcat99I use to work in state psych hospitals. I saw too many staff members get injured. One male nurse got a large part of his nose bit off by a male patient. Another nurse got a "permanent limp" after being attacked by a female patient. I lucked out. I got out without being killed or seriously injured. I will never ever work in a psych hospital again. It's not worth it period.
- 0Nov 17, '07 by ginger58File a police report. Demand the hospital get bouncer type security. Restraint chairs such as used in jails for time out. Better medication/adjusted meds. Maybe be outfitted with tasers. After being tasered I don't think they'll do it again. Training for staff on self defense and some of the pressure points to help cease and desist. I'm so sorry these things are happening to staff. It really is criminal.
- 0Nov 21, '07 by fawnsternurseThank you all for your feedback. I guess its like a bad marriage. You cannot always expect your partner to change but you can certainly re vist things and implement changes on your own behalf. Which I will do.
Thank you all again
- 1Nov 28, '07 by abbakingAlthough I mainly work in Med/Surg, I an MAB certified (Management of Assaultive Behavior) as I do float to adolescent behavioral medicine from time to time. I was taught in the MAB class and our hospitals unwritten rule is that if a patient is threatening your life or if you are in danger of severe bodily harm, staff are to do whatever is possible to safe their life and limb. If this means punching a patient or kicking them for a free second to run and seek safety, it is acceptable in a life or death situation. I once had a really big teenager punch me in the face so hard i had a bloody nose. In that situation when staff is being assualted and no help is immediately available, DO WHAT YOU GOT TO DO.
- 0Dec 5, '07 by NPAlbyWhich hospitals? Im due to start working in NC as a traveler in Feb and you guys have me worried. I've worked state hospitals before VA and NYC and havent had problems with patient violence. Then again Ive worked forensics where security is a lot tighter.
How about pressing charges I think staff needs to be more proactive and go through the legal process to make sure these patients face some consequence.

91 points and a Smart Buy in the Wine Spectator: "This refined, elegant red from the south of France has an enticing aroma of pepper and sage, with flavors of raspberry, kirsch, red cherry and hints of garrigue. The pure, minerally finish ends on a meaty note. Syrah, Grenache and Mourvèdre. Drink now through 2012. 1,000 cases imported." (08/08) And, according to Wine Enthusiast: "Intense wine, full of ripe but juicy fruit, layering spices, herbs, soft tannins and fresh red berry acidity. Well-proportioned, well-balanced...the aftertaste is warm, rich, herbal." (11/08)

All the unions took severe cuts during the bailout. These asswipes are paid to misrepresent the truth. Let's compare the ability to live a decent life working for a union shop as opposed to a non union shop. Union workers always receive more, because they deserve it and now have a collective voice. One worker has no power, together we have a voice. Unions "Now More Than Ever".
Nah -- home schooled . . .
they were evicted
Why don't they ask Bolling and the other jaw flappers at Fox if they're are getting benefits from NABET and AFRTRA, their unions. Their insurance doesn't come from Fox. It comes from their unions who negotiated on their behalf. DG
The idiocy displayed by Bolling and the rest of the Fox News imbeciles just astounds me. How on earth did they ever get out of high school?

|I am looking for a dark-leaved pink canna for a partly shady, east-facing bed. I think dark leaves will go better than green with the existing blue and blue-green hostas, and I would like a deeper true pink, not salmon or orange!
If you had to pick between Canna 'Birthday, C. 'Hope' and C. 'Shenandoah' what would you pick, and why? I need to get my order in fast, if you can share pics that would be ever so helpful! Thanks!!
p.s. I posted this in the canna forum, but there has been no response.

|I think pink dawn is dark-leaved. but cannas prefer as much sun and heat as they can get so a very shady spot will not be very good for blooms.
- Posted by prairiegirlz5 (My Page) on Thu, Jun 10, 10 at 0:21
|The spot I want to try is an east-facing bed, it gets morning sun and then part shade. 'Dawn' is pretty, please keep the suggestions coming.
The other plants are flowering tobacco, coleus, iresine bloodleaf, white iris and caladium, and three large hostas with blue leaves. I would like to grow a clematis or other vine too. Oh, I just gotta say it...
Whooo! Go Blackhawks!

RIgHT on!!! to everyone who wishes to succeed through this one!! I know we are all on the right track and it will al be worth it in the end! 6 years ago
10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.
- The Robots.
RIgHT on!!! to everyone who wishes to succeed through this one!! I know we are all on the right track and it will al be worth it in the end! 6 years ago
is at the heart of my soul. I used to say that I was passionate about so many things that I didn't know where to start but my mom kept saying that my passion was bad, that is was anger.
So I keep trying to hold in passion because I was taught it was bad to have.
I've realized that my mom has been such an incredible inspiration to me in my life, yet she also really wanted me to be very very traditional and when I tried to talk to her about leading a different sort of life, she pushed hard for me to stay on the narrow path that she saw for me.
Maybe it's from her own sense of wanting to be a "tradional" mom and failing, or maybe it's her wanting me to always stay close by, I don't know.
I forgive her. But it's still hard for me to not want to please her. 7 years ago
I think it's a shame that so often we are brought up to think that there are only a select few professions that are respectable or worthy of pursuing. I am just now learning to block out the noise of other people's expectations and finally listen to myself. Pursuing your interests is not a risk; the risky endeavor is believing that you have to abandon your passions in order to fulfill a specific financial definition of success, or meet someone else's criteria of who you are and what you should be.
No matter how many people have told me that I am making a mistake, I am leaving the corporate world and I'm doing it on my terms. I am going to get my Master's in Clinical Psychology and perhaps pursue some work in Public Health. I'm ok with uncertainty. All I need to know that is that I'm moving that much closer towards something that resonates with me. 8 years ago

BOSTON – Wednesday, April 30, 2014 – Governor Patrick today announced the nomination of experienced trial attorney William F. Sullivan as an Associate Justice of the Superior Court.
"I am very pleased to nominate such a highly qualified litigator to the Superior Court bench," said Governor Patrick. "I thank William Sullivan for his demonstrated commitment to the fair administration of justice and his willingness to serve the Commonwealth as a member of the judiciary."
William F. Sullivan has maintained a criminal and civil practice based in Quincy since 1984, with extensive trial experience in Superior Court. He also spent two years as an Assistant District Attorney in Norfolk County from 1982 to 1984. Sullivan serves on the Committee for Public Counsel Services murder list and represents private clients on a wide range of criminal and civil litigation matters. He served as a special assistant city solicitor in Quincy from 2006 to 2008 and as a member of the Judicial Nominating Commission from 2003 to 2007. Sullivan is a past president of the Norfolk County and Quincy Bar Associations and a former member of several Massachusetts Bar Association committees. He is a graduate of University of Notre Dame (B.A., 1979) and Boston College Law School (J.D., 1982). Sullivan is a resident of Canton. If confirmed, he will fill the vacancy to be created by the retirement of the Honorable D. Lloyd Macdonald on May 11, 2014.

Animal cruelty charges filedApril 08,2014Animal cruelty
charges filed
WEST PAWLET A man faces animal cruelty charges after police found one dead dog at his home and another so sick it had to be euthanized.
Keith L. Prevost, 46, of Route 153 in West Pawlet was charged and cited to appear in Rutland criminal court at a later date, according to a news release.
Police were called to Prevosts home March 25 for a report of animal cruelty.
Pawlet Constable David Ricard arrived to find two dogs in a cage. One was already dead and the second was clinging to life and in desperate need of medical attention, according to police.
That dog was taken to the Rupert Veterinary Clinic where, after an evaluation, it was euthanized.
Prevost was arrested Sunday and charged with two counts of cruelty to animals.MORE IN This Just InSOUTH BURLINGTON — Vermont Gas Systems announced this morning to members of the news media...

"We recognize more work needs to be done to bring about consistency in our sales performance and return our Company to profitability and positive sales growth. In the near term, we are focused on identifying a President and are working aggressively to re-balance our sportswear assortments. We also intend to seek to capitalize on up-trending areas of our business such as dresses and our e-commerce channel. At the same time, we are implementing a cost savings program that we expect will generate $3 million in annualized savings in fiscal 2013. We remain confident that we are taking the right steps to improve our near term performance and return our Company to long term sustainable growth."
