I'm planning to get a Tech Lighting low voltage track lighting "system." I live in NYC in a building with concrete ceilings and walls, and we're not allowed to install new power into the ceiling. There is an existing overhead fixture which we will use to power the track. The lighting person I brought is says we have to use a 300 watt transformer which will be attached where the current fixture is. The transformer looks very bulky in the photos I've seen - around 9 inches diameter by 5 inches high. Does anyone have any pictures of how this looks installed in a room? I was hoping for a clean, contemporary look, and I'm concerned that this will look out of place. |

Social Media's impact on the business-media relationship
Yesterday I attended a social media discussion panel.
I can hear the groans through the Interwebs, folks.
But it was worth the effort, particularly as a business operator, for whom the panel was geared. Further, if Mary Lower of Sterling Cross Communications is in any way involved in organizing a social media discussion panel, you should simply shut up and sign up. What I like about the Sterling Cross gang is that they adhere to the same philosophy I attempt to follow with our Foodservice News events: Provide meaningful content, and don't waste peoples' time. Accomplish one of those, and you've usually accomplished the other.
But back to the panel, an event sponsored by the National Association of Women Business Owners' Minnesota chapter. Titled "The Evolving Role of Social Platforms and Traditional Media" it touched on how business owners and the media use—and fail to use—social media to their advantage as promotional tools and story-gathering devices. Those two things go very much hand-in-hand, and apply to restaurants and other foodservice industry businesses as much as any other.
Moderated by John Vomhof (@MSPBJvomhof), business reporter for the Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal, the panel was a familiar group of media types who use social media: David Brauer of MinnPost (@dbrauer), WCCO's Jason DeRusha (@DeRushaJ), Minnesota Public Radio Interactive Producer Julia Schrenkler (@juliaschrenkler) and the St. Paul Pioneer Press' tech writer and uber web geek Julio Ojeda-Zapata (@ojezap).
The familiarity was not lost on the panelists; three of whom were on one of the first social media discussion panels assembled locally in 2008. The fact is, Brauer noted, the majority of those in "traditional" media do not use social media—the reason why they keep showing up on panels—although the number is growing. On the MinnPost staff, Brauer noted, where not long ago it was only him using Twitter, about 30 percent do now. That fact isn't inherently bad, either, he added. "If we are only going through social media contacts (to source stories) we're not doing our job."
That said, DeRusha gathers ideas for stories via social media, including the popular "Good Question" on WCCO. Anyone who has attached themself to his Facebook feed can see for themselves how that works. Still, he added, "The business community is way ahead of the working media with social media usage."
So what does that mean for you, the business owner, to know that the media doesn't necessarily consult social media for stories?
In my humble opinion, not much. My guess is the ratio is about the same for the remaining population. We all know more than a few people who don't do social media, or dabble a bit in Facebook but not at all in Twitter, or vice-versa.
More are coming on board each day—and there's more to join than just Facebook and Twitter. And you, as a business owner need to commit the initial time investment to get on board if you haven't yet done so.
The six big takeaways from the day:
1. The consensus on the panel is that, as maddening as the evolution of Facebook has been from fun social and promotional tool to navel-gazing central for self-important blowhards (my words, not theirs), it is absolutely necessary as a business owner to use it.
2. While it's not immensely popular at the moment, Ojeda-Zapata is an advocate for Google+ and sees huge potential for it. "Google+ is becoming a listing for businesses," he said. "Google is the king of search, there's nothing for you to lose. … in five years, it will be an important piece, especially for business."
3. Don't forget the power of e-mail. Schrenkler said it's still a wildly effective tool at MPR. "Use e-mail as a social network," she said. And that it is.
Here at Foodservice News, while I maintain the magazine's social media outlets, we still get more traffic to our website when we use an e-mail blast to promote our events than any other tool (in part because the list is larger, but also because it's regularly vetted). And, I would add, don't forget direct mail where appropriate. We still communicate with many of our out-state subscribers with direct mail. Why? Because it works. And a mailing list is as much of a "social network" as your friends on Facebook. Think about it.
4. DeRusha suggested businesses join every social media tool out there: In addition to Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn and Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, Tumblr and more. Even if you don't use them, you have at least claimed your business' name out there.
5. Addressing the point above, Shrenkler said, "Choose your energies."
To which Brauer added: "Go where your audience is." For his day-to-day professional life, Brauer is a prolific Twitter user. For his volunteer gig working with a neighborhood farmers market, the audience there spends a lot of time on Pinterest—a photography social media outlet. "I have to learn Pinterest," he said.
6. Use your staff as a promotional tool. "I tell business owners, whatever business is, you have collection of experts under your roof," DeRusha said. "Use them."
7. Be yourself. Social media is just that: social. "Sometimes personality is powerful content," Brauer said. "Try being yourself—at least your better self."
How do you know when social media is working for you? The moment you start generating feedback. It's that simple.
Even if you're not ready to divulge time to social media, back to DeRusha's point, it's vital that you claim your company name within the realm so someone else does not. And do your name, while you're at it—that includes webstie domain names. It can be a surreal experience doing that; I felt like an egomaniac as I went about the task. It's understandable why someone like DeRusha, who's on television every night and has 18,000 Twitter followers needs to protect their name and reputation.
But me? I'm a "B"-list food and restaurant writer in these Twin Cities, at best (and some would argue further down the alphabet). "It's still important," DeRusha said as we discussed the topic after the panel. He brought up an incident of a writer who had their identity "stolen" in the form of a blog. Which also reminded me of Lenny Russo, the James Beard-nominated chef and owner of Heartland Restaurant & Farm Direct and long-time Facebook holdout, who had a Facebook imposter for a time in 2008/09. Russo (the real person) eventually joined Facebook in August 2011, about nine months after he stuck his restaurant on the social media platform.
The thing about social media is you need to engage it to be effective. Further, as a business owner, you need to engage it because there's likely a conversation going on about you—good, bad or both. It's better that you (or your staff) engage that conversation, rather than not at all, or by letting an imposter do it for you.

GREAT post! I couldn't agree more about mixed media. As a social media 'fanatic', during the day I sell direct mail products and I truly believe that mixed media is always the best way to go because it does promote a social atmosphere. You shouldn't necessarily beat someone over the head with your brand, but keeping a level of constant exposure in a variety of ways makes you real. In a world of outsourced customer service it's nice give your business a level of tangibility. It's an underestimated added value.
Chris, Always good to hear your comments on things. I just watched an old "Gray's Anatomy" episode and they were tweeting during a surgery. It made me think about how we all can learn so much from each other and in business it holds true in social media. Good ideas about Google+. Thanks for the tips. Paper

In their intricate scenes, artist duo Davy and Kristin McGuire take the diorama way beyond the confines of the elementary school classroom.

Tessellated Masks Folded from One Sheet of Un-cut Paper
These masks may look like complex woven mats of metal or fabric – and that would be impressive – but the truth is even more astounding. Origami artist Joel Cooper uses a folding method called tessellation to create his elaborate masks out of one piece of paper without cutting or glue. His faces have a distinctly geometric form that is otherworldly and beautiful. Yes, this takes practice. [Read more…]
Artist Cuts Exquisite Trees into Luxury Shopping Bags
If there's one living thing NOT excited about the holiday season, it has to be the tree. Think of all the wrapping paper, newspaper ad sections and piles of shopping bags! Japanese artist Yuken Teruya has been transforming that last item into something that recalls its living source. With impressive precision he cuts a two-part silhouette – the lower branches and trunk, and the leafy top – into the side of each bag. Then he carefully folds them down into the space inside, joining the two shapes together and finally rooting the base of the trunk with a single drop of glue. Looking inside, viewers are treated to a magically idillic scene, softly lit through the holes above. [Read more…]
Beautiful Journalistic Pop-Up Books by Colette Fu: Capturing the Diversity of China's Southwest Yunnan Province
For the past 6 years Colette Fu has been photographing the minorities of China's Southwest Yunnan province, capturing the unique cultures of the region and recreating them in a beautiful way: pop-up books. No, these aren't your kid's pop-ups, her creations weave together the complexities of life in 3D form. Her latest series We are Tiger Dragon People 我們是虎 captures local festivals and culinary tastes, popular legends and the weave of local clothing, all with her densely collaged style. It's the perfect form to represent such a colorfully diverse culture, and it's all done with a delightfully mature, journalistic eye. [Read more…]
Paper Goes Viral: Cellular Sculptures By Charles Clary
Germs never looked so clean-cut until they met artist Charles Clary. A painter and papercrafting artist originally from Tennessee, Clary uses an Xacto knife to dissect hundreds of colorful sheets, which he stacks to create beautiful molecular reliefs. Resembling delicate microbial colonies that contaminate the walls they touch–while simultaneously evoking sound waves, fractals, and topographical landscapes–his works transform simple two-dimensional surfaces into pulsing, surreal structures.

Roots or Rivers? Astounding Cut Paper Sculptures Inspired by the Forms of the Natural World
Rogan Brown is an explorer of the natural world, both mineral and vegetable. His simply stunning response to the things he finds are these beautiful cut paper artworks which pop from the canvas in textural form. Serpentine roots, branching rivers, blood vessels – it's not always easy to determine what first inspired what, but they are all the forms and motifs of the natural world repeated throughout many different scales.

Amazingly Realistic 3D Paper Craft Birds
At first glance, and maybe even second, the birds in these images look real enough you don't want to frighten them away. It's a surprise then, when you find out that they are made entirely of flat pieces of paper, carefully folded and glued together to form precise replicas of real-life birds. Perhaps even more surprising, they aren't even reproduced from photographs, but are hand-drawn on sheets of paper using tools as simple as colored pencil. [Read more…]

Estonian Illustrations made with Cut Paper
When you look at the work of Estonian illustrator, graphic designer and art director Eiko Ojala, it's hard to imagine it's just flat pieces of paper.

Beaujolais, France Baronne du Chatelard Morgon is 100% Gamay from the Beaujolais region of France, packaged in the innovative Wineberry Box. Holds the equivalent of 4 regular 750ml bottles! Several Wineberry Box French wines were among the top-rated wines in the New York Times panel's review of wines-in-a-box on 8/3/11! What's especially interesting about this new wine gem is its innovative packaging. It comes in an adorable wooden Wineberry Box made of Bordelais oak and it holds 3 liters of wine-the equivalent of 4 standard 750ml bottles. Perfect for parties and summer picnics because it's so lightweight and durable-and amazingly compact! It's also a great everyday house wine, and you don't need to worry about 3 liters of wine going bad. Once the tap is opened the wine will last for six weeks in its airtight bag inside the box! What's not to like? Just remember that all boxed wines are meant to be consumed within 12 months, so drink up! Baronne du Chatelard Morgon offers vibrant aromas of blackberry and cherry followed by deep rich flavors of dark berries. Smooth and highly drinkable with a lasting finish. Enjoy Chatelard Morgon with roast chicken, BBQ pork ribs, burgers and hard cheeses. Note three 3L boxes constitute a "case" for case discount pricing. Opening instructions: Place the Wineberry Box upside down and slide open the bottom wood panel. Remove tape covering hole in front panel and push spigot through the hole with tap facing toward bottom of box. Slide bottom panel closed and turn box upright. When ready to open, simply remove plastic seal from spigot. Place wine glass under spigot and lift up on two side buttons of tap to dispense wine. Swirl and enjoy! Recycling suggestion: Wineberry boxes are a nearly perfect fireplace fire starter! Just stuff 2-3 pages of wadded newspaper into a box with the bottom panel removed, stack it on its side on the andirons and light through the hole with a match. It sustains a beautiful fire for 10 minutes or more as you add logs on top!

How to Cure and Smoke Your Own Bacon
I don't know anyone who doesn't love bacon. (But I also don't know that many people in general, and if someone I encounter doesn't like bacon, I usually erase them from my memory with alcohol and psychedelic sessions inside a sweat lodge.) I don't usually go for the turkey bacon, the tofu bacon, or the ostrich bacon I've seen springing up in alleyway street vendor stands around Kansas. Bacon is beautiful, erotic, communal, unassuming, nourishing, and full of life-giving neurons and juices. The smell alone could lift a lifeless body from its slumber (under the right moon cycle, of course).

First off, this smells fantastic. Sort of fruity and a bit nutty... It's hard to explain. This worked great for texturizing the pixie 'do I originally bought it for making it glowy as well as piecey. After two years I still had half a tube left and never thought I'd use it up now that my hair is quite a bit longer. It actally works great to give a little bit of volume shine and hold to achieve a beachy bedhead sort of look. One lippie off as it can get a bit greasy in fine hair, seriously a little bit goes a long long way
I love this. A little bit goes a long way, justifying the price, IMO. You won't run out of it quickly. It works great on my hair and it helps pick up my highlights, I think. It smells so good!
I was lucky enough to RIS. I could not stomach paying the 19 bucks that my hair salon was asking for it. My stylist used this in my hair to help hold out my new cute textured flipped out ends. It works like a charm. Plus it gives a pretty sheen to my hair. LOVE THIS! Will repurchase, but hopefully on Ebay. :)

Panel Discussions - Tuesday, March 01, 2011
IPI Creates, Presents Vienna Advisory Council
On March 1st, IPI's Vienna office convened a meeting to officially constitute the Vienna Advisory Council. The council has been formed in order to give advice with respect to the research, analysis, policy development, outreach, convening, and other programmatic activities of IPI's work in Vienna.
The Vienna Advisory Council is made up of nineteen distinguished individuals in the fields of international affairs, diplomacy, and conflict resolution. They are predominantly ambassadors to Austria and heads of Vienna-based intergovernmental organizations.
Among those Vienna Advisory Council members in attendance were:
Mohamad Hamad Omran Alshamsi, Ambassador of the United Arab Emirates to Austria
Torben Brylle, Ambassador of Denmark to Austria
William C. Eacho III, Ambassador of the United States of America to Austria
Thomas Greminger, Ambassador of Switzerland to Austria
Jean Marc Hoscheit, Ambassador of Luxembourg to the Netherlands
Maria-Pia Kothbauer, Princess of Liechtenstein and Ambassador of Liechtenstein to Austria
Richard Kühnel, Head of Representation of the European Commission in Austria
Johannes Kyrle, Secretary-General, Austrian Federal Ministry for European and International Affairs
Hans Lundborg, Ambassador of Sweden to Austria
Eva Nowotny, President of the Austrian UNESCO Commission and former Ambassador of Austria to the United States
Jan Petersen, Ambassador of Norway to Austria
Marjatta Rasi, Ambassador of Finland to Austria
The remaining members of the Vienna Advisory Council are:
Prince Mansour Bin Khalid Al-Saud, Ambassador of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to Austria
Marc Perrin de Brichambaut, Secretary-General of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe
Erhard Busek, former Vice Chancellor of Austria, President of Forum Alpbach
Yuri Viktorovich Fedotov, Director-General of UNOV in Vienna and Executive Director of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC)
Benita Ferrero-Waldner, former European Commissioner for External Relations and European Neighbourhood
Yerzhan Kh. Kazykhanov, Deputy Foreign Minister of Kazakhstan
Kandeh Yumkella, Director-General of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization
"IPI has a proud tradition, a solid financial basis, an established reputation, and great expectations," said IPI President Terje Rød-Larsen at the meeting. "Our Board, our staff and our donors are united by a commitment to peace. I know that you share that goal, which is why I am proud that you have agreed to join the IPI family."
Mr. Rød-Larsen made a presentation to the newly constituted Council, explaining IPI's history, mission, programs and financial situation. He described IPI as a "do tank," not just a think tank. "We don't just draft policy suggestions, we help states and organizations to implement their objectives," he said.
Mr. Rød-Larsen also highlighted a number of global "mega-trends" and their impact on each other. "The world is changing at an unprecedented pace: states, international organizations, and think tanks need to keep up."
"IPI can help to make sense of a changing world, and to assist the multi-lateral system to adapt," he said.
Mr. Rød-Larsen explained how IPI is changing with the times. In addition to its well-established tradition of policy research, policy advice, convening and events, IPI will be launching an e-magazine on global issues (particularly related to the UN and other multilateral organizations); it will expand its training of diplomats and civil servants to deal with future multilateral challenges; and it will create an online portal–called the Global Observatory–that will provide expert views and resources (such as audio and video features, maps and databases) to explain global events affecting international peace and security.
IPI's Vienna office, which opened in the autumn of 2010, is its first office outside of New York. Among the office's current projects are assisting Lithuania's Chairmanship of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, and looking at the impact of organized crime on peace operations. It will host the forty-first IPI Vienna Seminar on May 23rd-25th on the topic of coping with crisis in Europe and Central Asia.
Rita E. Hauser is Chair of IPI's Board of Directors. The names of the directors and the members of IPI's International Advisory Council can be found here.

As first reported in Puerto Rico's El Nueva Dia newspaper, beloved former Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Carlos Delgado will announce his retirement today.
Delgado played for parts of 16 seasons in the big leagues with the Jays, Florida Marlins and New York Mets, accumulating 473 home runs and appearing in the top ten for MVP voting four times. However, hip injuries have gotten the best of him in recent years and today's announcement is anything but unexpected.
As any good player upon his retirement deserves, Delgado's Hall of Fame credentials will be debated over the next few days, then forgotten, then argued all over again in December. It's hard for a Blue Jays fan to have an unbiased opinion on Delgado given he still holds several team records including most runs (889), doubles (343), home runs (336) and walks (827).
However, they don't pay me the big bucks to be a sentimental homer.
As we can see by the graph above, Delgado's numbers are far below the career cumulative WAR of Jeff Bagwell, Fred McGriff and even John Olerud. Unfortunately, with only two All-Star appearances and three Silver Slugger Awards, combined with comparisons to other first baseman in his era, I wouldn't even consider Delgado a borderline case.
However, just because he doesn't stack up too well against the best of the best doesn't mean he should be any less celebrated in Toronto. If Delgado is open to it, the Blue Jays would do well to give him one of those meaningless roles that really good players get so that they're always associated with the team for whom they performed best.
People often forget that Delgado was a catching prospect in the Blue Jays system before the team tried to turn him into a left fielder and eventually a first baseman.
Delgado, always acting in the best interest of the team tries to asphyxiate Eric Hinske with a towel and some sort of chemical concoction.
Delgado takes a mighty cut at the ball against the Seattle Mariners in August of 2003.
After a dozen seasons in a Jays uniform, Delgado left Toronto as a free agent ahead of the 2005 season. Here he is shaking hands with the devil.
Delgado only lasted a single season with the Florida Marlins before he was traded to the New York Mets ahead of the 2006 season. Their new first baseman led the team to the NLCS where they eventually lost to the World Series Champions St. Louis Cardinals. After missing out on the series, Delgado was consoled by being awarded the prestigious Roberto Clemente Award.
Eventually, Delgado was joined by former Blue Jays teammate Shawn Green in New York.
Mother's Day, May 10, 2009, ended up being Carlos Delgado's last game in the Major Leagues. He hit a double and was hit by a pitch in five plate appearances.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I totally love my Illustarted Love Save the Date magnets. I started distributing the magnets last week and I have gotten a lot of compliments. The quality of the picture is so clear. The magnet has such a romantic feel. I made the right choice by choosing this magnet. I am a very happy customer."
"These save the date magnets are amazing! I need a few things changed on them to make our website fit and the company did that quickly sending me the proof within 24 hours. Once I approved it, they were shipped out fast and arrived earlie than expected! I used an outdoor engagement picture which matched the wood texture perfectly. I ordered these a month in advance because there was a deal I couldn't pass up so now I'm just eagerly waiting mailing them out to everyone!!"
"I kept "the" white on the front to let our color photo take center stage. The design was classic and modern but not fussy."
"I love my save the dates and can't speak more highly of this company. I originally ordered this save the date with the Flint color, which to me looked like a dark gray on screen. When my save the dates arrived, though the quality was great, the color was an odd mix of gray, brown, and mauve. I don't know if this was just a fluke or what Flint really is, so just a warning! I was disappointed, so I decided to call Wedding Paper Divas to see if anything could be done. They just asked me to send a picture, agreed that it didn't look like the digital proof they sent me, and they changed my color to Charcoal and sent me a whole new set for free!! They arrived quickly and were exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much for working with me, Wedding Paper Divas, and making sure my save the dates were perfect for me!"
"This save the date was perfect for us. We started by choosing our favorite suite for invitations, but realized we didn't have any engagement photos for our save the dates - no worries!!! Although you have to order first and then request customization, Wedding Paper Divas did an excellent job altering the save the date to exclude a portrait. It was simple and elegant, preserving the original text and design. To save cost, we also went with the basic paper choice. The paper quality and weight are both sufficient. The design is very pretty. Simple and tasteful. We are very pleased with our purchase."

New mural going up downtownAnthony Edwards / Staff Photo
The building housing the former Stoplight bar on the corner of West and Evelyn streets in Rutland is seen with a fresh coat of white paint Monday after the mural that once decorated the side of the building was recently removed.Downtown Rutlands newest mural is displacing one of its predecessors.
The scene of a farmer on his way to the market by Kathryn Palmer-Wiegers has come down from its spot overlooking Evelyn Street. The mural will be relocated and in its place is planned a piece by Peruvian artist Persi Narvaez, who painted another mural just around the corner on the side of the Opera House in 2012.
The new effort was arranged by the Chaffee Art Center, and executive director Margaret Barros was vague about what Narvaez had planned.
I can tell you that it will involve prominent architecture in Rutland City and it will be a composition involving many different public buildings and landmarks, she said. It will be meaningful to people who live here and people who come back to visit. ... Not a cityscape, so to speak, not a panoramic line ... Hes taking some artistic license with spacing, but youre going to recognize some of the buildings.
Nor was the destination of the Palmer-Wiegers mural readily available Monday.
I havent 100 percent secured the new location, Downtown Rutland Partnership executive director Michael Coppinger said. This all happened relatively quickly.
Coppinger said removing the old mural was a simple task.
It was on six panels that were attached on there, he said. Thats how weve done our murals ... in case they need to be moved or repaired.
Barros said that Narvaezs companion, Nora Valdez, participates each summer in the Carving Studios stone bench project, and he accompanies her to the area.
Board members at the Chaffee are housing Narvaez, and the Chaffee hopes to recruit some local Spanish-speaking art students interested in working with him. Barros said Paul Gallo provided a lift for 10 days and put down the base layer on the side of the building using paint donated by Noble Ace Hardware. She also said Sherwin-Williams has pledged the paint for the mural itself. Narvaez plans to begin work this week, and Barros said the mural should be complete in August.
His plan is to be out there about 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. when its in full sun, its too hot for him, she said. When there are cloudy days, hell be out there, probably, nonstop. If I interpreted him correctly, youll be able to see something by Saturday.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (www.incnow.tv)
Every month in 2014, a deserving person, family or organization will be paired with a local business or volunteer to help provide a need.
Meet Donny Burnside who suffered a stroke at age 3 months. This has caused Donny to struggle through many challenges but that hasn't stopped him. Even after receiving a completion degree from New Haven High School, his mother Karen Burnside says, "It just wasn't enough for him. He wanted a better future."
So Donny went to the Literacy Alliance to earn a GED because, "I want to get in to college and I knew a completion program didn't mean anything in college..." Two other attempts and eight years later, Donny's determination finally paid off. Several local businesses were so impressed with Donny's story of perseverance they decided to help celebrate his achievement.
Matt Schmidt, the owner of A Plus Computers on Parnell Avenue says, "Thinking someone went through eight years to get through high school... That's some serious motivation. It was touching." Which is why he gave Donny a laptop for his next challenge- college courses at Ivy Tech. Gordon Food Service will provide food for Donny's graduation party to be held at the historic Wabash Railroad Depot in New Haven donated by the New Haven Area Heritage Association.
Congratulations Donny!
As part of the Extra Mile program's mission to connect people to people and people to the community, all 2014 Extra Mile: Circle of Giving recipients will give back to our community by volunteering with local non-profit organizations, public agencies, schools, and ministries.

Birthday wishes for mother-in-law: Busy schedules and never-ending responsibilities of daily life can diminish the value of family relationships, especially with the in-laws. Take up your mother-in-law's birthday as a chance to be nice to her by wishing her a happy birthday with a loving message or a sweet quote. You can even write something funny on her birthday greeting card to celebrate your quirky relationship as mother-in-law and daughter-in-law or mother-in-law and son-in-law. The image of a mother-in-law in TV shows and movies is often portrayed as annoying, irritating, selfish, arrogant and obnoxious – but we all know that all she wants is the best for you and her son or daughter.
1) My husband's impeccable personality and good behavior is proof that that he has had an excellent upbringing and a loving childhood, all thanks to a mother like you. Thanks for raising such a gentleman. Happy birthday.
2) I want my daughters to grow up to become like you – sophisticated, elegant, charming and caring. Happy birthday to my beautiful mother-in-law.
3) Sometimes our relationship is sweet, sometimes it is sour. Sometimes our relationship is tangy, sometimes it is bitter. In short, our relationship is the perfect balance of sweet, sour, tangy and bitter. Happy birthday to my mother-in-law, I love you.
4) If the words 'in-law' are removed from mother-in-law, all husbands and wives of this world would realize that life has blessed them with two amazing mothers, not one. Happy birthday.
5) My wife is the most beautiful woman in the world not because she dresses so well and looks so good, but because she has got amazing genes from a beautiful woman like you. Happy birthday mother-in-law.
6) Happy birthday to the mother-in-law who has been more of a mother to me, and less of an in-law.
7) I am not celebrating your birthday because you are getting old. I am celebrating your birthday because I have had the chance to spend yet another year with a wonderful parent-in-law like you. Happy birthday to my dearest mom-in-law.
8) You have proved that all the mother-in-law jokes out there are totally untrue. Happy birthday to the most amazing mom-in-law in the whole world.
9) It is because of you that my life has been blessed with the man of my dreams. I owe you a big one. Happy birthday to my mother-in-law.
10) Mothers-in-law are not monsters-in-law but messiahs-in-law. They come to your help exactly when you need them. Thanks for being such a supportive mother-in-law. Happy birthday.
11) I am so glad you were born on this day many years ago. If you weren't born, you wouldn't have married my father-in-law and I wouldn't have had the wonderful husband I have right now. Happy birthday.
12) Other mothers-in-law should take lessons from you on how to be supportive, caring and encouraging to their daughters-in-law instead of being manipulative, cold and overbearing. Happy birthday to an awesome mom-in-law.
13) My husband is bound to love you because you are his mom and my kids and are bound to love you because you are their grandmother. But did you know that I am also bound to love you because you are such a loving mother-in-law? Happy birthday.
14) I love making my other married friends jealous by flaunting a cool mother-in-law like you. Happy birthday.
15) If every woman had a terrific mother-in-law like you, every woman in this world would have a second mom. Happy birthday to the ideal mother-in-law.
16) If every woman was an amazing mother-in-law like you, there would be no ugly mother-in-law jokes in the world. Happy birthday.
17) The house becomes lively every time you are around. The kids become happy whenever you visit. Your daughter feels relaxed whenever you come to stay. And as your son-in-law, I feel blessed on all of these occasions. Happy birthday.
18) We have had our share of misunderstandings, difference in opinions and disagreements. But I still respect you a lot and think that you are the best mother-in-law in the world. Happy birthday.
19) Now that my son is married, I realize what an amazing mother-in-law you have been all along. Happy birthday mom.
20) The controlling, vicious and nasty character of the mother-in-law played by Jane Fonda in the movie Monster-in-Law should take a lesson or two from you on how to be an extraordinary mother-in-law. Happy birthday.
21) I can safely claim to be one of the few sons-in-law in the world who actually loves having his mother-in-law over for more than a week, and I owe it all to you. Happy birthday to my amazing mom-in-law.
22) I am glad that I never understood the real meaning of mother-in-law because I always had a mother, friend, companion and agony aunt all rolled into one in my mother-in-law. Happy birthday.
23) I hate to admit it but I do get jealous of your son's undying love for you. But deep down inside I realize that the love and admiration that you command, has been earned and you deserve it completely. Happy birthday to the second mom in my life.
24) I always wanted an amazing husband who would understand me and a wonderful mother-in-law who would get along with me. I am thankful because God granted both my wishes. Happy birthday.
25) Don't think that your daughter is the only person in the world who loves you, admires you and is fond of you. I am competing with her when it comes to you. Happy birthday dear mom-in-law.
26) Dear mother-in-law, today I want to reveal a secret to you. You are the mother-in-law that every daughter-in-law wishes to have. Happy birthday.
27) Raising kids would have been a herculean task if I didn't have a supportive and understanding mother-in-law like you who guided me at every stage in life after marriage. Happy birthday.
28) The most amazing woman in the family deserves nothing less than an amazing birthday bash. Happy birthday to the mom-in-law who holds the entire family together.
29) It doesn't matter whether you came in my life by destiny or by choice, because I would pick you to be my mother-in-law even if I had to make a choice. Happy birthday.
30) If you are so extraordinary as a mother-in-law, I can imagine how amazing you would be as a mother. Happy birthday to you.

Hmmm...both of my McAndrews brothers also have daughters named Ellen, so there's another tiny connection. John and Philip were born in 1824 and 1826 and came to the United States on July 3, 1850. They didn't have a Thomas with them, but perhaps he came first. Notify Administrator about this message?

Wish they had more colors
I love the shoe, it's super comfortable. I do find that it runs a a bit big though. I usually where a 10 but I had to return them for a 9.5. I hope they come out with a nude leather option!!!!
August 17, 2014
I bought them because they were a wonderful color, on sale, and in my size. Talk about the stars being aligned. I have only worn them around the house, but they fit perfectly and are comfy. I haven't worn a heel this high in eons, so I need to practice so I don't fall on my face. My sister can't wait to borrow them - but she has to wait! Heading to a concert in early September - they'll be the star of the outfit. The suede is so soft - and like ALL Clark's - well made. I'll keep on practicing!
August 8, 2014
Platform pumps that are comfortable!
Love these shoes! They are so very comfortable, and beautiful, too! I got tons of compliments.
August 1, 2014
I almost love them
Soooo close. I wanted to love them. I almost loved them. They are beautiful and quality made shoes with leather lining. The footbed is ultra comfortable.
I almost decided to keep them, despite the pain. But, if I'm in pain just standing for a minute while trying them on, there's no way I could withstand all night walking, dancing, and partying.
The trouble is the top of the shoe cuts painfully into my foot just below the first metatarsal. If that could just be stretched out a bit or had a bit of give to it, perhaps the issue would be resolved. Maybe they need to be broken in, but I'm not taking that chance.They are being returned.
July 11, 2014
At last, comfortable heels!
I have these shoes in red from last year and those are my favorite heels EVER. When I saw the teal on sale I had to get these too.
I don't wear heels much but this style is the most comfy pair of heels I have ever worn. I haven't worn the teal ones for a long time but I assume they will be as great as the red ones. The suede provides a little more give so there's no breaking in. I tried the leather version in-store in black and obviously they weren't as soft as the suede.
The teal is more of a greeny teal, rather than a blue shade. The website photo is accurate that it shows that it's more of a green.
July 10, 2014
The best heals ever!
These are by far the most comfortable heals ever! Highly recommend! Just wish Clark's would make them available in black an nude year around. I need more but they only have them in green at this time.
July 7, 2014
Excellent shoe
This is a beautiful shoe. I would suggest buying a half size larger because it fits a little snug at the top of your foot. I own many pairs of clarks shoes of all types, and I love them all.
July 2, 2014
Stylish and comfy
Just bought these pumps in teal and have never experienced shoes this beautiful that are so cushiony and comfortable. I was a little hesitant about the color after reading other reviews warning it is not teal, but army green. Wrong. The color is actually a forest green--a rich, deep green (and definitely not army green). Very pretty and autumnal. I will wear these with skirts, dresses, and even jeans. Can't wait for Fall!
June 19, 2014
perfect, fashionable and comfortable. I will recommend this item to my parents and friends.
June 18, 2014
Great shoes!
These are so comfortable and true to size. My only complaint - they were supposed to be Teal. They are actually an odd Hunter Green. Still beautiful, but not as described.
June 11, 2014
It is a great shoes.
This shoes is very comfortable, and it looks great!
June 5, 2014
tight in the toes
Cute shoes, great color, wished they would have been more comfortable, but the toe box smashed my tootsies. I could not imagine wearing them for any length of time and sent them back. I have had this issue with other shoes from the Indogo line. The regular or Artisan Clarks seem to have bigger toe boxes.
May 21, 2014
Love em!
I really like these heels. Like the other reviewers said they are definitely army green and have NO trace of blue in them to make them anything close to teal. None the less, they are cute and comfortable, which makes me happy about my purchase!
May 1, 2014
Really wonderful
It is really beautiful and comfortale. The color is also special. I like it and recommend it.
April 28, 2014
Too tight
The front part is too tight and it hurts my toes. I will have to return it. But I like the height of the heel and the color is beautiful.

- "Your Force powers are no match for mine!"
- ―Alora, to Jaden Korr
Alora was a Lethan Twi'lek female Dark Jedi active during the early years of the New Republic, and apprenticed to the Disciples of Ragnos cult leader Tavion Axmis. In 14 ABY, the cult was on a quest to resurrect the ancient Sith Lord Marka Ragnos. In order to achieve this, the cult needed to siphon Force energies from locations with significant Force nexuses using the Scepter of Ragnos, a powerful dark side artifact. Under orders from Axmis, Alora infiltrated the Jedi Praxeum on the moon Yavin 4 and sliced into the facility's mainframe, stealing a list of such locations. Soon after, Axmis sent Alora to the planet Hoth to gain information on the area. In a former Rebel Alliance base on Hoth, she encountered and fought Jedi Padawan Jaden Korr. Alora again encountered Korr on Taspir III where she was ultimately struck down by Korr.
- "Ah, you must be the saber-wielding troublemaker who neutralized our perimeter guard. Are the Jedi stretched so thin that Skywalker sends children to battle the Disciples of Ragnos?"
- ―Alora, when confronting Jaden Korr for the first time
Alora, a female Twi'lek, was a member of the dark side cult, the Disciples of Ragnos. In 14 ABY, Alora came under the tutelage of the Human female Tavion Axmis, during Axmis' effort to resurrect the Sith Lord Marka Ragnos with a powerful dark side artifact called the Scepter of Ragnos. Alora was tasked by her master to infiltrate Jedi Master Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy on the moon Yavin 4. After gaining access to the Jedi mainframes, Alora stole a list of locations strong in the Force so that Axmis could siphon the Force energies from there using the Scepter of Ragnos, and then use the energy to resurrect Ragnos.[1]
Soon after, Axmis sent her Twi'lek apprentice to the planet Hoth, with support from the Imperial Remnant, to gather information on the Force energies located there. While they were searching Echo Base, a hideout used by the Rebel Alliance during the Galactic Civil War, a Sith Cultist was sending Alora the information they needed. However, the Cultist was killed by Jedi Initiate Jaden Korr before he could transmit the data to Alora. Alora herself was located by Korr in a hangar inside the base, where she was waiting for the data transfer. Alora engaged Korr in a duel, but fled when she realized she couldn't gain the upper hand. She taunted Korr as she escaped, angered and determined to defeat him should they cross paths again.[1]
Alora would encounter Korr again on the planet Taspir III, while he and the Jedi Kyle Katarn were searching for Rosh Penin, Katarn's other apprentice, who had renounced the dark side and was being held captive in the cult's large facility. Alora was at the facility to ensure that Penin was secure and unable to escape. She was surprised when Korr showed up, and, after locating him, proceeded to lead him on a chase through the facility, taunting the Jedi from various ledges and balconies until she reached the hangar, where Penin was being held. Korr confronted Penin, angered by his betrayal. Seeing his anger, Alora encouraged Korr to slay Rosh and join her and Axmis in the dark side. With telepathic help from Katarn, Korr let his anger dissipate. Realizing that he would not turn, the enraged Alora cut off Penin's arm with her lightsaber and attacked Korr, though Korr eventually struck her down.[1]
Personality and traitsEdit
- "You Jedi are blandly predictable. Tavion thought that turning you would gain us an ally. But since you won't be turned, I guess it's up to me to clean up her mistake."
- ―Alora displaying her overconfidence towards Jaden Korr
Alora was a red-skinned Twi'lek who was extremely overconfident, a trait which she learned from her master. This overconfidence was evident when Korr first encountered her on Hoth, where she remarked that Luke Skywalker was sending children after the Disciples of Ragnos.[1] On Taspir III, the second time she faced Korr, she again taunted him, saying that she had learned many things and called Korr a "sanctimonious fool"; however, her overconfidence failed her and she was subsequently killed by Korr.[1]
Powers and abilitiesEdit
- "Tavion has taught me many things as well, you sanctimonious fool!"
- ―Alora, when confronting Jaden Korr for the last time
Alora was flexible, agile, and feminine; her acrobatic, graceful lightsaber styles reflected this. She focused on lightsaber combat, becoming skilled in the Fast style of the New Jedi Order and Jar'Kai. She was a very fast learner and picked up all that her master taught her,[2] becoming second only to Axmis in her skills. Alora focused more on the acrobatic and lightsaber sides of combat, becoming an efficient combatant, and did not use dark side Force powers frequently, although she did demonstrate proficiency in the use of Force lightning.[1]
Behind the scenesEdit
Alora first appeared in the 2003 video game, Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, and was voiced by Grey DeLisle. In the video game, Alora is the only character in the game to have a different animation for Force Jump. Her version is more of a forward cartwheel while the standard animation for all other characters is a somersault. She can also perform a unique saber throw, throwing both her lightsabers at the same time and has a different taunt animation, briefly levitating and spinning both her blades. If the player chooses the dark side path in Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, Alora commends Jaden for killing Rosh. However, Jaden feels the Scepter should belong to him and Alora still engages him in a duel.[1]
The second Alora model never actually appears in the single player campaign, though it appears in the game's multiplayer mode. Instead, when you meet Alora on Taspir III, she is still wearing her Hoth attire, although this is attributed to a programming glitch in the game's files where her Hoth model overrode her Taspir model, however this can be overcome in the PC version by creating an addon file for the game to use Alora's Taspir model.[1]

Downtown with the Japan MS Society
Posted on June 6th, 2012
On Saturday the 26th May volunteers from the Japan MS Society took to the streets of downtown Tokyo to raise awareness about multiple sclerosis (MS). The team handed out pamphlets containing information about MS. The volunteers were also equipped with World MS Day banners and bright orange t-shirts.
The public were invited to ask the lovely volunteers any questions they had about MS. The Japan MS Society aimed to raise their visibility among the Japanese public and promote World MS Day to people who may not have known about this event. World MS Day 2012 Japan was a huge success with coverage of the event as appearing in several newspapers and all 3,000 pamphlets being distributed within the busy downtown area of Tokyo.
