A function led typeface, designed solely for eReader devices.Editorial Design, Graphic Design, Typography2012
For this years D&AD brief I was given the option to choose which brief I'd like to under take. Having a love for illustration I decided to take the challenge of working to the illustration based brief. This brief to me was perfect, being a huge film fan and having a real interest in the way films are advertised. I was also a regular reader of the magazine the project was for, that of Little White Lies. A brilliant film based magazine, with features on illustrations and culture.
The majority of their covers features the film's main character as a cover star for that issues main story. These are normally regular face on head and shoulder images, using traditional illustration methods. I decided to push the boundaries and take the term Illustration to the next level.
The brief allowed me to choose one of the five films stated. I decided to go for that of the film Super 8 due to my admiration for films which have links to that of Steven Spielberg. Therefore my my cover would have to focus around the main character of Joe Lamb played by Joel Courtney.
Expanding on the term of illustration I decided to do something different and not use traditional methods. Therefore looked for unique ways of creating portraiture. This came in the form of me learning 3D software to enable me to create a 3D paper craft illustrated mask of the main character. This was then photographed to create the final outcome.
To coincide with the illustrated cover, a hardback study book was also created showing my process.Illustration, Graphic Design2012 -

A study of Philography ( Autograph Collecting ) through the media of Information Graphics. Includes editorial publication and poster design.Editorial Design, Graphic Design, Publishing2011
'What is Research?' was a research lead project which enabled me to take an in-depth look into how research influences designers in industry. This lead me to create an understanding for research methods, styles of researching and how influences are often created. With the findings, it was my task of creating that of a A2 folded broadsheet poster which would showcase and communicate my findings. This came in two parts.
Part one was that of 'My Inspirations' a pull out style A3 folded poster showing an A-Z of musical Isotypes which influence me when designing.
Part two was that of my research findings which came in the from on an A2 folded poster. One side featuring my research, the other showcasing that of my conclusion and personal views.
This can then be used as a send out to potential employees, to show the methods and understandings of how important research is within design.Editorial Design, Graphic Design, Typography2012 -
Even though I mainly work in the graphic design field, I have been lucky enough to take part in many illustration projects both commercial and personal. Over several years I have developed a style of illustration using water colour paint to create black and white portraits.Graphic Design, Illustration, Painting2013
The Design Museum of London set me the task of creating an exhibition, around the theme of collections. This was to take place at the Design Museum Tank on the bank of The River Thames. The brief allowed me to choose a collection of my choice and in respond creating a exhibit proposal and also that of a catalogue showing the collection in more depth.Editorial Design, Exhibition Design, Graphic Design2011

[ bomber jacket - Paparazzi, favorite tee, necklace - J.Crew, boots -
Lucky Brand, sunglasses - Ray-Ban, leather wrap bracelet & zodiac
earrings - (on loan from) SEAH Watches & Jewelry ]
What winter? I'm back to donning the same layers I wore in October while counting down the days until I don't need them anymore (fingers crossed)! I paired a simple long-sleeved favorite tee from J.Crew with a chunky sweater (it's hidden, unfortunately), and my favorite bomber jacket. As you can see in a picture below, the lining of this jacket is leopard print, so fun! I wore this SEAH wrap bracelet and striking SEAH stud earrings for some gold and blue accent color. These wrap bracelets (see Ally's post here) are so cool and crafted so beautifully; a bonus aspect is the magnetic clasp hidden as a gold emblem. I am wearing the SEAH 2-Wrap Element Bracelet w/ Leo, Virgo, Libra, and Scorpio signs as well as the Virgo earrings. I absolutely love big stud earrings but often find them too heavy to wear for long periods of time and this pair was perfect, so light-weight and so pretty. Check out more products by SEAH here in last Friday's Fab Finds!

Do You Love Yourself?
The problem is, we expect ourselves to be perfect (according to some standards). When we don't meet those standards, each flaw gets magnified in our eyes out of proportion. The trick is to love ourselves exactly the way we are, including the flaws.
Can you accept that you are overweight, and love yourself still? Aren't there overweight people that are lovable? Can you forgive yourself for being "stupid" and "lazy" and not being able to achieve the desired level in your career, and love yourself still?
Above All. Can you step out of your self-accusing bubble and see that all the things that you hate about yourself (including the ones that you don't clearly understand) are actually not that bad. They are what makes you human. If you can accept them in others — you can accept them in yourself. Self Acceptance and Wholeness
Once you learn to accept and love yourself exactly the way you are, you will step into you power. You will radiate inner strength, love and beauty (the kind of beauty that is not measured by weight-to-height ratio or the perfection of your facial features).
Your entire life experience will transform, and you will draw to yourself people and relationships that are entirely different from what you had before. No longer will you need someone else to "complete" you. Being at peace with who you are will eliminate co-dependence from your life, and you will be able to attract a partner who will value you as much as you value yourself.

Thrips were awful last year. I really have to search deep into a bloom to finally find one. Is it too early or are we being spared after the devastation last year? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I'm jealous. :( |
They vary from year to year because different weathers favor the reproductive rate of thrips over their predators or vice versa. In terms of the calendar year, we haven't yet reached the period when thrips usually peak here (June), but who knows how the forward spring will affect thrips. The roses are at June stage. |
Spring was early BUT (and this is the biggie) grasses are later. Most years, in my area, Mothers Day is the date for the first cutting of hay. This year, the hay is short and late and the seeds are no where near ready for cutting. Late hay is late maturing grasses. Thrips love grasses. Now to watch for when the predaceous thrips emerge. They are the good guys and they come along in great numbers when their food source (other thrips) populations have surged |
- Posted by ken-n.ga.mts 7b/7a (My Page) on Sat, May 12, 12 at 16:58
The thrips are over on this side of the mountains. The past month they have just about destroyed all the blooms, including the reds and dark colors. I'm hoping their cycle is winding down. |
Saw my first fire fly last week :) |
I've learned never to say things like that. It's like asking for the skies to open up and trillions of thrips to descend on your roses. |
I haven't seen any yet but then I don't have many blooms open yet either. Besides, I'm just fine with it being a light year! |
For this spring's flush, I religiously sprayed Conserve every week and used Avid on the buds. (The break every 3 weeks that Conserve recommends never worked.) This seemed to work for the majority of my spring flush. Many flowers had thrips in them, but they were still "cuttable" with an additional shot of Avid. I couldn't keep it up, though, and slacked off toward the end. Sure enough, about a half-dozen roses had buds that never opened and went crispy on the stems. My Elina reaches 8 feet every season with flushes averaging several dozen blooms each time - huge, fist-size blooms. Unfortunately, the number of blooms that I've been able to enjoy per season as exhibition-clean can be counted on one hand. I hate these d*mn thrips! I bought some of the new Naturalis stuff from Rosemania and will let you all know how that works. The handling has me very concerned, though. Rosemania even shipped it with a chemical cold pack. :o Robbie says chilli thrips have reached his area in Nashville. I guess things will get worse before they get better. |
They're all here. lol |

I decided to Scrapbook again. DGD is 2.5 years and I just finally did a 2 page layout of her. I've done a number of pages of her 6 y.o brother, and now there is a 4 week old brother!
Gotta get back into it! I'd like to share the pics of the pages. Her name is Brekken Nichole. The font was downloaded from the 'net, fairytales is the name. I used a square punch for the name tiles. I really wasn't trying to get the tiles all the same in length. Also, I didn't scan them all the same way apparently, this first page is off a bit. I dunno what the two dark spots are on this one. |

She's such a cutie pie! And I really like your letter tiles. Thanks for sharing. |
Minnie, I too wish I had done this when my children were little. Now, I can only make up for it by doing their children. I do 4x6 books for each child. One book will take me through the year. I am starting their 3rd books now. Funny how sometimes the creativity just flows abundently and then sometimes I get a headache trying to think of what to do. At the times I am flowing with ideas I just keep going til there's no more pictures to do. I am always taking pictures and there's always some in the store getting developed. I should buy stock in Kodak. |

I loved your pages, too. I went back and done my daughter's scrapbook. Only problem is that I couldn't do alot of journaling. But it's okay, the book turned out ok. |

I'll admit that in the past I have been guilty of thinking of colored pencil art as colorful and bright and not necessarily able to be coupled with serious subjects or moody narratives. But that was my own bias. As I've spent time looking at sketchbooks of draftsmen creating colored pencil art and figure drawings made using colored pencils, I've discovered that the medium is as diverse as any other.
But recently I've seen life-drawing sketches of figures made with colored pencils that show how much depth and subtlety the medium is capable of when light hatchmarks are used. Colors are built up in controlled layers of line, and the lightness of the paper underneath is allowed to shine through and illuminate the marks.
To gain more insight on colored pencil techniques--from the basics and beyond-consider Janie Gildow's newest DVDs, TK and TK. Gildow is a colored pencil drawing expert and really shows how to make the medium shine. Enjoy!

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Wolf - loves to howl!
Facts about Wolf - loves to howl
- Breed: Alaskan Malamute/Husky Mix
- Color: White - With Gray Or Silver
- Age: Adult
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Male
Wolf - loves to howl's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, and up to date with shots.
Aren't I the most gorgeous mix of Malamute and Siberian Husky you have ever seen?! I'm 92 lbs with ice blue eyes. I turned 3 in May, and still love to play and take long walks. Swimming is my favorite.
BTW, I love, love, love kids and get along great with other dogs. If you're looking for a laid back, trustworthy house mate, I'm your man. However, I have to say, I like to howl. I call it singing. And I only do it when I'm bored. So if you would like to bring me home, be prepared to give me lots of exercise!
Other Pets at Alaskan Malamute Rescue of Delaware
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Wolf - loves to howl, a Augusta County Alaskan Malamute/Husky dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Alaskan Malamute/Husky for sale in Augusta County, or seeking a Alaskan Malamute/Husky dog from a breeder in Augusta County.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Augusta County already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Augusta County breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Alaskan Malamute/Husky breeders who help with Alaskan Malamute/Husky rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Augusta County paves the way for another one to be saved.

PUPU in Hawaii Not POO POO
Has someone said to you that they want to have PuPu's with you? Relax and don't get crazy on them, they are actually asking a good thing. If you are living or visiting Hawaii or the Honolulu area, then you may have heard or seen the word PuPu. This is not to be confused with the Poo Poo that your dog leaves as a gift on your neighbor's front lawn..that one you DO NOT want to eat! Pu Pu's in Hawaii are actually the Hawaiian name for appetizer. A lot of times we have big parties on the beach of Waikiki, Kailua or Lani Kai and everyone brings a Pupu to share and we all feast on snack foods. It is really great when you get those big groups of people together and you can share each other's version of finger foods. If you are ever asked to go with someone to get Pupu's or asked to bring a Pupu then go for it, but leave the Poo Poo at home!

Breakfast Topic: Do you test patches on the PTR?
Blizzard puts up public test realms (PTRs) for testing new content all the time. At times the PTRs are unplayable, either due to bugs or overcrowding. At times they are ridiculous because of the economy, because people transfer all the gold on their account to a single character before copying them. Some major guilds go whenever there is new raid content to practice it on the PTR, so they can get their world firsts whenever the content does go live. Some people seem to go just to stand around and complain about the changes yet not actually test anything. However, all the problems aside, the PTRs are the only way to experience the new content or class changes prior to live.
I tend to copy over to the PTR whenever there is a new raid instance or a major revamp of my class. Having been in the betas for the last couple of expansions, I tend to file lots of bug reports and hope that at least some of my issues are addressed. I have gotten frustrated with people attempting to make a ton of gold in the test realms because they do not seem to grasp the fact that the money doesn't come with them to live. Whatever is done on the test realm stays there and dies there.
The PTR is there for testing, and testing requires people to be able to have access to the new material. Because a lot of people don't actually test on the PTRs, we tend to have several mini-patches in order to fix bugs with a major patch. So actually use the PTR for testing, since it will only help cut out some bugs for when it goes live.
Do you actually use the PTRs? Do you participate in sending in bug reports? Are you one of these people who copy over all your gold and charge exorbitant AH prices on the PTR?
Yes, I consciously try to test the new material. | |
Yes, but only to sightsee or get an early shot at the content. | |
No. | |
Only if there's something specific to my class or character I want to check out. |

I just bought the body mist version of this since the travel size is going for ten bucks right now. I've been looking for a scent similar to Magnolia Blossom (RIP) from Bath and Body Works, and I've FINALLY found it!! It's so soft and feminine yet still sexy. I'm in love. My new HG!! I really hope they don't discontinue this. I've never tried the original, so I'm not sure how it compares, but it smells heavenly.

I love Chicken Romano, reading about it has made me hungry!
I've never made it myself but it's one of my favorite Italian dishes and I think I eat it at least twice every month.
I like my Chicken Romano a little spicy, baked and with a side of pasta, drizzled with olive oil. Along with a salad, it's very filling and I don't gain weight on it.
I've never had Chicken Romano with mashed potatoes before, that sound's very good too, I'll have to try it sometime.

A Long Week!
We wrapped up our Scientific Advisory Board Retreat Thursday, packed everything up and headed up the lakefront to Evanston for the opening reception of the Partners Against Mortality in Epilepsy Conference that we co-sponsored and that Gardiner Lapham co-chaired.
The meeting goes through Sunday morning. Gardiner opened the conference with an amazing tribute to her son, Henry, and all the families who have lost loved ones or who are living with epilepsy and want to better understand what we know about mortality in epilepsy, and what the risks are.
It's an amazingly powerful assembly of patients, families, scientists and clinicians – a landmark gathering!
Stay tuned for pictures and a wrap-up next week, and thanks to all the organizers, sponsors and dedicated families and professionals. What a difference they are making – in awareness and research both.

Scroll Carving - A few weeks ago I carved the scroll for the top of the neck. To fanc
y things up a bit this time I also carved a scroll on the back as well. The maple isn't too hard to carve except that it splits at the drop of a hat. I bought a few sharpening accessories for my sharpening gizmo which allowed me to really sharpen up my gouges and that helped a lot.
After doing a few more things to the neck, rough shaping, chambering to lower weight, I was almost ready to glue the neck to the rim. First, the rim had to be profiled to the dome shape (see last post). I used my shop made motorized sanding dish to do the work and it went very quickly. Surprisingly, the motor is only 1/6hp but it's just strong enough. I think for this tool it's better to not have too much power so you don't wreck anything too quickly.
What I forgot to do was to glue the pinblock on and profile it before I glued the rim to the neck. Oh well, that shouldn't be too bad because I should be able to get it really close by hand and then do a final quick sanding of the rim and pinblock already attached to the neck. Below are a few more picks of what I've done in the last few weeks. Remember that the final shapes on the neck will be done once it's glued to the rim and further along. You can also see the jointed (but not sanded) top in the background of one of the shots. I also included a picture of my first guitar which is just about ready to be level sanded, buffed out, and set up to go.
I'm off to the airport, hopefully I'll have some time to get some stuff done next weekend.

Prospect Camp Day 2 Report
Day 2 was very interesting because Eric and I were able to go down to Mellon Arena and meet with the players and coaches and get some great interviews with several players like Big Dog Tangradi, Joey Haddad, Andy Bathgate, Carl Sneep, Robert Bortuzzo, and Casey Pierro-Zabotel.
Video is being processed and will be posted later this evening.
Now onto today's recap:
- Today's on-ice workout was what Dustin Jeffrey called a "hard practice similar to what an NHL practice would be like" on Mark Madden's radio show after the workout. Tons of hard skating, end to end rushes, lateral movement, and general skills at high speed. Not much to write home about but it was much more a development day than entertainment.
- An interesting quote from Tom Fitzgerald this morning about the undrafted guys attending camp: "This is not a tryout for these kids. They are here because they have earned it through their play. This is more our organization trying out for them. A guy like Gibbons is going to go back to college and finish his senior year after which he will become a free agent. Our hope is that he remembers our organization and how we treat our players when it comes time for him to make his decision."
- Keven Veilleux had a very good day today. He did very well during the odd man rushes while lined up at center. This is a change from the past in which he was always lined up on the right wing or left (usually the right if I recall). He could have just been playing center because of the overload of wings or maybe they are grooming him to move into that 3rd line C role in a few years? I don't know just talking out loud. More than likely it was the overload thing but either way it is just prospect camp so it probably doesn't mean much.
- Veilleux's move against McNeill is well worth a separate bullet point. Veilleux comes down, flips the puck into the air over McNeill, catches the puck out of the air, tosses it onto his tape and rips a shot on goal – all in one smooth motion.
- Speaking of Veilleux – how great would it be to have a 6'5" (at least) winger with good speed, nice hands, creativity and a right handed shot? If he can put it all together he could seriously help the Penguins in a big way.
- Tangradi looked very quick today during the skating drills. He was very impressive during a breakaway chase drill. Tangradi chased down nearly every forward he was against and picked their pocket or harassed them enough to upset their shot. Very impressive.
- During that same drill, Ben Hanowski caught several players from behind as well. The biggest knocks against him was his skating and defensive play so that was good to see. Hanowski was quite good today and looks bigger and quicker.
- Robert Bortuzzo looks simply dominant on the ice. He and Simon Despres have been definitely the best defensemen at camp. Brian Strait, Carl Sneep, and Alex Grant have been solid as well.
- I always thought Sneep's supposed two way play was more smoke and mirrors rather than actual potential. But after speaking to him and seeing him – he has potential as a 2nd PP type guy. Think a Jordan Leopold type guy with more toughness (no Andy Sutton jokes here unless you're an expert…oops).
- Brad Thiessen is probably hoping that the team building activity tomorrow is paintball so he can get back at Haddad for all the abuse he has taken from the power forward. Yesterday, Haddad caught him under the mask and shook him up. Today, Haddad fires a shot off his helmet once again. A few drills later, Haddad clubs Thiessen in the head with his stick accidentally and sends the goaltender flying. An easy goal is scored while Thiessen is recovering and Haddad says something along the lines of "where the hell were you?!" Thiessen barks something at him and picks up the puck with his bare hand and throws it at Haddad as he skates away. That got a chorus of laughter.
- Camp invitee Alex Smigelski has been pretty impressive. According to Seth Rorabaugh of Empty Netters, Smigelski turned down a development camp offer from the Capitals to attend the Pittsburgh camp because he knew he had a chance to earn a contract due to the dire winger situation. He has a heavy shot and good speed and offensive creativity. I wouldn't mind seeing more of him.
- Paul Thompson won the shootout competition yesterday (and tricked me into thinking he was Hanowski or one of the drafted guys) and was very solid today as well. He has a heavy accurate shot – a trend among draft picks and camp invites alike. Think Shero knows there is a weakness on the wing?
- Nick Petersen and Ben Hanowski were both tasked with getting bigger and quicker. In my opinion, Hanowski did, Petersen didn't.
- Tom Kuehnhackl looks to be a legit player. He looks very very solid on the ice – especially considering this is his first hockey experience in North America. Several scouts said he would have been a late 1st round pick if he had been in Canadian Juniors this past year. Well that's where he is headed so look out for this guy. Excellent draft pick.
- Kenneth Agostino looks like a player as well. Shero and Co. saw this kid while scouting last year's 5th round pick Alex Velischek. They both went to the same high school and will hopefully someday be passing to each other. Both players have some potential.
- Haddad had the best shot of the day in which he burnt Killeen with a laser beam wrist shot over his glove. I almost thought it was Gaborik for a second. Unreal shot.
- Bennett was just as good as yesterday but there is less to talk about due to the skating intensive practice. Look for some fireworks from the guy Friday and Saturday which should be more entertaining practices.
Nothing tomorrow but I will have a few videos to post once they are edited. Check back Friday for another update and continue to follow my coverage on Twitter.
Feel free to ask me questions on there – I will answer to the best of my ability and knowledge.

Jonathan Nelson, chief executive officer of Providence Equity Partners, remains the richest Rhode Islander, according to the latest Forbes ranking of the 400 wealthiest Americans
Nelson, 57, ranked 342 with a net worth of $1.6 billion, down slightly from $1.7 billion and a ranking of 285 a year ago.
Nelson, who is a Brown University graduate with a Master of Business Administration from Harvard University, keeps a low profile in Rhode Island but is known to a small circle as a generous benefactor of local causes and institutions, especially Brown.
Nelson founded Providence-based Providence Equity Partners in 1989. The private equity firm has made money and an international reputation by buying and selling media and telecommunications companies.
By the way, if you think Nelson is rich, consider this. Another self-made billionaire, Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft Corp., is America's richest resident, with a net worth of $72 billion, up from $66 billion a year ago, according to Forbes.

Case background:
"I keep thinking about our first lawyer who told us to not to fight the city's decision to refuse our permit because it would cost too much and we had no way of winning. We're just so thankful to Goldwater . . . without them we would've given up." --Tom Preston
As a liberty watchdog, the Goldwater Institute stepped in to help the Prestons by suing Tempe. A superior court judge ruled that the City must reinstate the Prestons' business permit. However, the Prestons were not awarded any damages. Even though they won the case, after originally spending $30,000 to open the studio, the Prestons were left with no money to move forward with reopening it. The Goldwater Institute filed an appeal asking that the Prestons be awarded damages and the City cross-appealed. After both appeals were filed, the City and the Prestons agreed to dismiss their appeals. The Prestons plan to open their new tattoo studio in August 2010.
This case represents a classic infringement upon our business freedom by local governments when they can deny an individual the right to their livelihood based upon their personal feelings rather than the rule of law. Through this lawsuit, the Goldwater Institute was successful in protecting economic freedom, private property rights, and enforcing the rule of law.

LINCOLN, Nebraska — An increase in carbon monoxide poisoning calls last year could prompt Nebraska lawmakers to require alarms in homes and apartments.
A bill set for a legislative hearing Thursday would add Nebraska to a growing list of states that require the devices in addition to smoke alarms.
The Nebraska Regional Poison Center received 167 carbon monoxide calls in 2014. That's up from 107 calls the previous year. Kathy Jacobitz, the group's managing director, says the detectors are an important safety device.
The bill by Sen. Sara Howard of Omaha would require carbon monoxide detectors in any home or apartment sold, rented or issued a building permit after Jan. 1, 2017. Howard says she introduced it in response to past carbon monoxide deaths in Nebraska.
The bill is LB34

More exemplars of the vinyl solution. You can always count on Foreskin 500 for extra value, and the 45s "More Than a Feeling"/ "Less Than a Feeling" and "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Noise?" provide it. The former sports a faintly creepy but somehow affectionate rendition of the familiar Boston hit on the A side, backed with a deconstructed fragment of the same thing on the flip. Better yet, the platter is a picture disc featuring a satirical reproduction of the artwork on Boston's debut. Supernatural. As for "Noise," it includes both the loud, dopey title track and a recording of lead singer Diggie Diamond narrating the tale told in a mini-comic book that accompanies the package. The story, decorated with filmstrip boings, is guaranteed to appeal to the very kind of person who would want to buy a Foreskin 500 single in the first place (available in area record stores). Wrong Again, a vinyl EP from Old Bull's Needle, is kicked off by the act's best tune, "23," which ups the melody quotient without sacrificing any of the combo's power. "Wrong Again" and "Crackhead," meanwhile, are more typical punk pileups but still entertaining in their own destructive way (available in area record stores). Come On and Hear!!, a three-songer by the Minders that Cargo has picked up for distribution, oozes with the distinctive sound associated with its label, Elephant 6. Former INK. man Martyn Leaper, joined by Robert Schneider and Hillarie Sidney of the Apples, assembles wonderfully catchy and deceptively chewy pieces of pop. "Build" and "Almost Arms" retain their own identities, while "Chatty Patty" perfectly captures the style established by the Beatles circa Magical Mystery Tour. So old it's new again (available in area record stores).
The sound of Blues Traveler and its ilk rests heavy on the shoulders of the men in the Vermicious Knids. The harmonica of Mike Studeny is a prominent solo instrument and the numbers lope and skitter in the manner of the other John Popper-influenced acts you know so well. Those previously committed to this genre will no doubt deem "Hollow" and the rest scrumptious. Anyone else should run, not walk, in the opposite direction (759-4831). By contrast, Boulder's Anastasia Vye, whose latest cassette is called Lesbian Hot Wheel Barbies, does not sound the slightest bit like Blues Traveler. The brainchild of Robert St. James, the group divides the tape into a "lesbian side" and a "heterosexual side"--but no matter your sexual preference, you'll be beguiled by the bargain-basement pleasures of "In Front of the Liquor Store," "Johnny Flame" and other shaggy perversities. Even if you don't like this, you can bet it won't bore you (Blonde Girlfriend Records, 85 South 35th Street, Boulder 80303). Those ever-popular lesbian themes also crop up on Dancin' With Danger, by the Sharp Chuckies, an engaging throwaway of an act that features Mike from the Christines. "Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston are Lesbian Co-Captains on My Spaceship of Love" is the showiest piece here, but there are laughs aplenty on the other tracks, including "Movin' Guy" ("He forced me to eat ambrosia/Not the band but the food"), "Traveling Song" ("We're sure to find a Furr's Cafeteria/It ain't Ponderosa/ But hey, it ain't half bad") and "Don't Touch My Hair" ("Maybe later I'll send you out for some conditioner if you don't mind"). Sure, it's silly, but everyone needs a little silliness now and then (The Sharp Chuckies, 2531 South Lincoln Street, Denver 80210).
Littleton-based Etherean Music received a bonus earlier in 1996 when the album In the Presence of Angels, by local pianist Dik Darnell, was nominated as new-age record of the year by the National Association of Independent Record Distributors and Manufacturers. The disc's title is appropriate: The tracks assembled by Darnell and his accompanists (including flutist Bryan Savage) put me in mind of the music played in shameless tearjerkers when a beloved central character is about to die. Personally, I hope the music playing when I receive my final reward is "Smells Like Teen Spirit" (Etherean Music, 9200 West Cross Drive, Suite 510, Littleton 80123). The folks in TurnSol have that ol' Gin Blossoms/Jars of Clay jones again. In the Sun, the act's new CD, is professional-sounding in every way, thanks to the able assistance of producer Bill Thomas, but the earnest VH1 rock churned out by Jerry Fox and cohorts struck me as way too generic. Hootie lovers may well find the concoction attractive, but more demanding listeners are advised to look elsewhere (available in area record stores).

Five-time Olympic gold medal speed skater and 2007 "Dancing with the Stars" winner Apolo Anton Ohno admitted to People that he's got a thing for shoes. "I have a lot of shoes, I have a weird, weird, obsessive amount of shoes," he said. "I just ordered three more pairs the other day … It's bad. It's a problem. The first step is admitting it, and I just did!" [People]
It seems like celebrities like to say they're addicted to shoes. Perhaps because it helps shopaholics relate to them? Here are some surprising (and some not-so-surprising) celebrity shoe addicts.

Tanaka was sweaty and smiling after 50-pitch game of catch. Told me he felt good and no pain. First of many steps.
— Sweeny Murti (@YankeesWFAN) August 4, 2014
Manager Joe Girardi will meet with the media at approximately 4 p.m. ET, at which point he will surely discuss Tanaka's throwing session and the next step in his rehab process.
Tanaka, 25, suffered the ligament tear the week before the All-Star break. He was examined by three doctors and all three agreed the tear was small enough that he should rehab the injury rather than undergo Tommy John surgery.
Tanaka can't be back until September at the earliest, so the Yankees' postseason fate may be decided before he plays in another game, but if the rehab is really working and he's able to avoid the knife, this is great news for their 2015 team - and more importantly, great news for baseball fans who get to see a heck of a pitcher.

1. Best Regards, President of Comfort, Esq. posted on August 05, 2014 at 02:02 PM #Nobody cares!We're probably all assuming that he won't actually be back this year, I think.
At this point, there's no real harm in delaying the surgery until September, as he can get some rehab innings in fall/winter ball next year and spring training 2016.
I guess it gives the Yankees beat writers something to write about in a lost season for the Yankees until he goes under the knife.

How to get best rate on auto loan
To get the best possible interest rate on a car loan, it's important to understand two things: the current marketplace for interest rates, including different lender options and financing offers, and your personal financial situation and its possible limitations.
Though credit indeed became "tight" after the subprime-mortgage meltdown, as lenders swung from indiscriminate to overly conservative practices, car dealers say that misperception -- more than a true financing shortage -- has kept shoppers out of their stores. The situation has improved, especially as domestic manufacturers have ratcheted up incentive offers.
Several primary factors determine your interest rate:
Your lender. Unless you borrow money privately, you're going to be working with a bank, a credit union or an automaker's financing arm. There are various pros and cons to each scenario.
The car you're buying. Are you buying a new car? A used car? A very used car? New-car rates are often the lowest.
Loan-term length. When automakers introduced zero percent financing to keep cars selling after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, they were only offered on two- and three-year loans. Now, many automakers are offering zero percent financing on five-year loans. In general, though, longer loans come with higher interest rates.
Your credit rating. Borrowers with better credit get lower rates. Jack Gillis, public affairs director for the Consumer Federation of America, estimates that only 15 percent of car buyers qualify for zero percent offers from automakers. Lenders
Car buyers borrow money from three primary lending sources: banks, credit unions and automakers. Loans from any of these sources may come through the dealer, who often serves as the middleman and takes a cut in the process.
Getting a loan through a car dealer is not, however, automatically more expensive. In fact, dealers provide the only way to get specialized low rates from automakers.
"How can you beat zero percent?" said Daniel Ray, former editor in chief of Bankrate.com.
"When a [car] dealer arranges financing, it earns some type of compensation, which can sometimes be passed on to the buyer," said Fritz Elmendorf, former vice president of communications for the Consumer Bankers Association. That may happen in the form of a lower price or a lower interest rate.
Car dealers borrow money at wholesale interest rates, which they then mark up and pass on to you. Because the dealer's rate is lower, the rate you get may be no higher than one you arranged yourself.
Elmendorf agrees, but says there's a caveat: "Consumers can get very competitive rates at the dealer, but [they] need to educate themselves to make sure that happens."
CNW Marketing Research data shows that credit unions -- another good lending option -- account for only 11.7 percent of loan financing. According to Datatrac, a market research firm specializing in the financial services industry, credit union rates in 2009 were roughly 1.2 percent lower over the course of the year than bank rates on 48-month loans for both new and used-cars.
Credit union option
While credit unions make up a small percentage of total auto loans, they often offer good rates for consumers.
Like credit unions, lots of banks will lend you money. For a further comparison of bank and credit union rates, check the websites of Bank Rate Monitor, E-Loan, LendingTree or the Credit Union National Association.
New or used?
In general, new-car loan rates are better than used-car rates. Usually, only new cars qualify for zero percent financing, though some automakers occasionally push certified pre-owned stock with zero percent offers. In general, the older the car, the higher the rate.
Term length
Sign up for the shortest term length you can afford to take advantage of low rates.
According to Power Information Network, as of 2009 the average term for a new-car loan was nearly 64 months. This leaves consumers vulnerable to owing more on a loan than their car is worth, Gillis said, a condition that's often referred to as being upside-down, or underwater.
"Sign up for the shortest term you can afford," Gillis said. "If you know what your credit score is and the interest rate you qualify for from an outside lender, it makes it difficult for an auto dealer to sign you up for a higher rate."
What to do if rejected for a loan
If at first you don't succeed, don't try, try again until you've determined why you were rejected and have taken steps to address it. Credit scores are the primary determinant of who gets approved for loans, and if you didn't check your credit score before you applied the first time, it behooves you to do so before applying again. Many loan applications automatically trigger a credit check, each of which can knock a few more points off your credit score, making what might have been a bad situation even worse.
If your credit score is accurate and you've taken all possible steps to improve it, you're ready to do what we recommend for all car buyers: Shop around for a good interest rate before returning to a dealership. Credit unions are a great option; while they're perceived as exclusive, their interest rates are typically lower than a bank's and they're more likely to examine a subprime applicant's circumstances and make exceptions if problematic credit history results from one-time medical expenses, unemployment or divorce.
Don't overlook the bank at which you have a savings or checking account. Your financial history isn't exactly a mystery to any potential lender, but an existing relationship can work in your favor, as it's easier for a bank to sell services to its customers than it is to attract new ones off the street.
Finally, don't rule out financing a car at the dealership. Only a dealer can offer new-car finance rates from the automaker; those rates are sometimes the lowest available. Also, if you've taken our advice but had little success with other loan sources, a dealership might be more willing to make financing accommodations if you're buying one of its cars, especially a used one. If the dealership that denied you the first time was smaller, a larger one might have more tolerance for risk or have relationships with more lenders.

The friendly staff at MaggieMoo's Ice Cream and Treatery churns dozens of creamy flavors fresh each day before enhancing frozen creations with inventive mix-ins and toppings. They power through shivers to fold nuts, candy, and fruit into ice-cream varieties such as chocolate banana, and sprinkle sugary toppings over ice-cream pizzas, one of MaggieMoo's signature creations. Aside from other avant-garde dessert offerings—which include ice-cream cupcakes—the staff slings frozen favorites including cones, creamy milkshakes, and ice-cream cakes.
Occasional appearances by Miss Maggie Moo, the business's iconic cow, delight customers. She also lends her services to fundraising efforts for local schools and charities.
Smoothie King, at the St. Johns Town Center on the south side, is one of the top smoothie brands in Jacksonville. Known for its thick, delicious and creamy smoothies, Smoothie King offers a mega menu of flavors like strawberry kiwi and carrot kale, made with natural juice, real fruit and vegetables. Customers can also get enhancers for things like weight loss, muscle building, energy and protein replacement. Smoothie King also offers snacks like energy bars and high protein cookies, as well as a wide variety of supplements for all health needs and goals. With bright yellow walls, overhead lighting, pristine counters and colorful board menus above the counter, the smoothie shop feels light and airy. There are a few tables and chairs, but most shoppers grab their smoothie to go.
Yobe Frozen Yogurt in the Avondale Shopping district is a chain froyo spot with several locations throughout Jacksonville. This delicious, sweet, creamy frozen yogurt has found a loyal following, thanks to its fat free nature and sweet finish. Yobe, like most fast-casual yogurt shops, offers a handful of flavors that switch up daily, including salted caramel and blueberry swirl taro. Toppings run from healthy to decadent, with granola giving way to Captain Crunch, mochi and the usual array of chocolate chips, gummies, sprinkles and peanut butter pieces. The small shop sports lime green walls, large hanging lantern lights, white Lucite tables and chairs and scant patio seating out front. Yobe is not self-serve, however, so the counter person handles your topping needs.
When the founders of 3 Sisters Chocolate & Bakery sought the perfect inspiration for their chocolate shop, they looked no further than three sisters they knew—one really creative, one really sweet, and one a perfectionist. When they founded 3 Sisters Chocolate & Bakery more than a decade ago, they combined these ideals to craft creative, sweet treats from family recipes with supreme attention to detail. Today, the 3 Sisters repertoire includes gourmet cupcakes, brownies, and decadent truffles. It also features the unexpected, such as chocolate pizzas and shoes, adding to the shop's mantra that chocolate is an experience, not just something to eat or pump through an IV.
Without a job, single mother Gwen Willhite was facing a difficult situation. But a sweet solution relieved her tough times: she assembled homemade cookies into a more sugary version of the bouquet, an idea she thought would be perfect for gift-giving. The concept was a hit, and within a few years, the business she called Cookie Bouquet had become a franchise. Willhite's company, now called Cookies By Design, continues to churn out edible bouquets, alongside cookie cakes and cookies in flavors such as white-chocolate pecan, snickerdoodles, and oatmeal raisin. Cookies By Design has expanded to many locations across the US, where staffers at each hub freshly bake and hand-decorate each creation.
