|Shopping the Parks: Disneyland Paris, Part 1
When my husband and I visited Europe last month, we had a number of reasons to go: Tony and I had been trying to visit our in-laws ever since they moved overseas a few months after our wedding; Tony wanted to show me his old stomping grounds from the time he lived in France and Brussels; and of course, all of this was just a convenient excuse to get to our real destination -- Disneyland Paris.
Disneyland Paris held a lot of appeal for me. Everyone I knew who had visited just raved about all there was to see and do. Space Mountain with a loop, an Indiana Jones roller coaster, the Alice Hedge Maze the list goes on. And, don't forget: shopping! Lots and lots of shopping. Of course, we didn't spend the entire trip in the stores, but, for the purpose of these articles, I'm just going to concentrate on the shops and merchandise. Today's column focuses on the stores themselves: their architecture, decorations and theme. My next column give you a look at the best of the merchandise we found at Disneyland Paris.
Like most of Disneyland Paris, the stores are monuments to what Imagineers can create when given a realistic budget. If you think the stores at Disney's California Adventure are drop-dead gorgeous the DLP shops are even more so. In the Disneyland Paris shops, stained glass and polished brass abound, painted murals cover ceilings and walls, and accent pieces and trim are used lavishly, but tastefully.
The store that any Disney Park veteran recognizes is the Emporium. Every Magic Kingdom has one, right on Main Street USA. The Paris version is notable for its surrounding tall, white columns. Each Emporium store is known for the lavish window displays, and the Paris store did not disappoint. When we visited, its windows were merchandised to reflect the Toon Circus theme seen throughout Main Street.
Once inside the Emporium, you can't miss these two wall murals. One advertises "The Original Emporium Department Store," established in Los Angeles in 1855. Of course, that's 100 years before the DL Emporium really opened its doors, but this keeps the 1800s theme intact. On an adjacent wall, you find a similar mural for the Orlando, Florida store, established in 1871.
Be sure to look up when you get to the cash register. Above the main counter rises this stained glass dome. When we were there, a display of rope ladders and trapezes had been erected to play off the Toon Circus theme. I hope those come down soon though, since they looked so tacky next to the elegant dome and lighting fixture.
Do you see the painting of Walt Disney in the Emporium Mural? That's just one of the many, many places you find such tributes to the man who drew the Mouse that began it all. Right next to Walt's Restaurant, which was unfortunately closed during our visit, is Lilly's Boutique, named after Walt's wife, Lillian. Inside Lilly's are dozens of photos of Walt and Lillian. The boutique is divided into smaller rooms, each with a unique decor theme. My favorite was the ocean room, with its thousands of shells used to decorate it. The mirror above is covered in them, and the border around the top of the made completely of shells. Even the light fixtures are made of driftwood.
Next to City Hall stands the Storybook shop, a catchall location for Disney books, videos, music CDs, posters and souvenirs. The store looks like a library or bookstore. As you enter, a life-sized Tigger greets you from inside a banker's cage.
Again, be sure to look up at the "second story" of the building, where you can see a collection of Disney characters climbing around the bookcases upstairs.
You can find a larger collection of CDs across the street at the Paris version of the Camera Shop. You can even sample the CDs in a listening station before you buy them, which is very convenient if you've ever taken a CD home only to find that you got a different version of a song you wanted.
The Disneyana Shop on Main Street is another must-see. Faux-marble columns surround the center of the store, and above each cabinet are gilded bas-relief laurels. Display tables are made with marble tops, and have carved, gilded bases and legs. The carpet is a rich tapestry of blues, greens and mauve.
Most striking is the giant, pumpkin-like cloche , the store's centerpiece. Inside the cloche is a blown-glass replica of the Disneyland Paris Castle. Soft internal lighting rises at intervals to highlight the sculpture. Another of the amazing stained-glass domes rises above you, and a crystal chandelier hangs in the center. All of the light fixtures in the room coordinate with this gorgeous chandelier.
If it seems that all the good stores are on Main Street, guess again. The castle itself holds two shops within it that put anything at Disneyland to shame. On one side is the Seven Dwarfs shop, built within a forest inside the castle itself. Utterly charming, you reach by crossing over a bridge and entering into a replica of the Dwarfs house. On the other side of the Castle is the Christmas shop, open year-round. During our spring visit, we were astounded at how very pretty the shop was. The Cast Member looked amused, and told us we should see it in December.
Over in Discoveryland, be sure to stop into the Star Traders. Although the merchandise isn't anything to write about, the store itself is perfectly themed to the Star Wars world, and serves as a great example of how seriously the Park park takes its movie tie-ins.
Outside the park in the Disney Village is an early version of the World of Disney store. Three separate shops -- Team Mickey, World of Toys, and the Disney Store -- form a giant shopping complex along one side of the walk. Stuck amid this complex is the Disney Gallery. A trip up its winding staircase gives you a view of the three fairies from Sleeping Beauty, and a scale model of the Paris castle. Sadly, the upper floor of this store is no longer used, so you find yourself on a stairway to nowhere. A mixture of gallaery prints and concept art for the park line its walls.
Although I know people who have gone all the way to Paris and never left Disney property during their stay, we had to carve out a day to absorb some French culture. Of course, Disney has a way of following us. As we walked up the Champs-ElysŽes from the Arc de Triomphe, we came across, what else? A Disney Store! It's a pretty store, built, like many other shops on that street, on two floors.
It seems the European Disney Stores are experiencing the same problems as the domestic outlets. The first thing I noticed was a window banner offering a free plush with a minimum purchase of two items totaling 300 French francs. Reading the fine print, it turns out you must return another day to redeem your free toy. What a great way to ensure repeat traffic. Inside, we found racks and racks of sale merchandise.
The store itself was beautifully decorated in a Sorcerer's Apprentice theme. Again, we found a great mural on the ceiling. I'm trying to figure out why so much attention is paid to the ceilings of the stores in Paris. We're lucky to get paint on our walls, while they are covering their ceilings with artwork! C'est la vie .
Shopping patterns of Disneyland Paris guests differ from those in the states. We know that although people tend to shop at night on their way out of the park, you still find people in the stores throughout the day. At DLP, it seems that nobody buys anything until the afternoon. We found ourselves nearly alone in the deserted stores as we wandered the shops in themorning. Even the CMs didn't seem to be fully awake.
Later that night, it was a totally different story. About two hours before park closing, the stores were crammed with people. You may have read that Disneyland Paris has two "arcades," or passageways that run behind the stores on either side of Main Street. Whoever designed them was a genius, because it really helps to facilitate traffic flow during parades. Unfortunately, the space needed to create those walkways was taken directly out of the stores. As a result, the Main Street shops are smaller than their US counterparts. If you think it's tough to walk through the Emporium in Disneyland or Walt Disney World at closing, you won't believe what it's like in Paris.
The moral of the story -- shop early! Disneyland Paris has two types of "Shopping Service" (what we refer to as Package Express). Some stores hold packages for you at the store, and you can pick them up whenever you want. You can also have your purchases sent to the Main Gate, where they are available starting at 5 p.m. And because there are no lockers at Disneyland Paris, the Shopping Service is your best bet. However, you must be sure to ask for it, since unlike the US parks, CMs don't usually volunteer to offer the service. On your way out of the resort at night, be sure to stop by the Clearance Center, just outside the gates, for a collection of park-logo clothing at 50% off - usually last year's lines.
Just like the rest of Disneyland Paris, I found the stores to be a visual treat. There really is no comparison to them among the stores in the U.S. parks. The merchandise though... that's another story. Come back tomorrow and I'll tell you all about it.

Here we are again with more good news from MS. This was such a small deal that I had a feeling that this would turn out to be the reality. Now people that had been complaining about privacy worries or wanting to be able to store it away when not in use get their wish.
And here we go again with people negative on MS for this news. More good news is attacked and spun as a big minus. I'm getting tired of this stuff going around and around.
Developers can still be confident that if they create compelling content that uses Kinect, every X1 owner can make use of it. That means more Kinect only titles, but I think the bigger part is that means more hybrid options. Taking core titles and using Kinect where it makes sense, not trying to break standard controls, but adding controls that compliment them. That means voice and gesture uses. At the same time, customers have the option of not using Kinect at all if they aren't interested.
I like how Microsoft is essentially going through a checklist of complaints about the Xbox One, crossing them out one by one.
Yeah I agree, and yet unfortunately, they seem to still get grief for it. The internet echo chamber is just a mess sometimes.
Who wants to bet that Microsoft reverses on more XBox stuff:
- 3rd party apps, IE & Skype no longer behind the XBL Gold paywall
- Kinect-less SKU
- Removed ads from XBox UI
They already removed the ads from the Home dash screen, so they seem to be trying to cut that stuff down already.
I still think we will see MS announce an open app store, something like a mobile app store, that is not behind Gold. At the same time, they could offer some premium apps or content that is behind Gold. We will see.

The Golf Club of Georgia
The Golf Club of Georgia was looking for a complete redesign of its site to enhance the brand image of the course and
create a reputation of quality and excellence.
During the process, our designers visited the course and saw first hand what makes the course so special. Prompt researched other, similar courses and learned what golfers wanted to learn from a course's web site. From there, we began creating designs and working on developing the ideal look and feel for the site.
In the design phase of the project, we started by cleaning up the "Flying G" and using different type face for their logo. As we began to design the web site, we determined that the course site needed to express the simplicity and beauty of the game of golf. By creating an efficient user interface and navigation, Prompt developed a classic design that displays the beautiful photos of the golf club and course to show golfers what the character of distinct quality of the course.

A Mo Bro Tribute - Garrett Roger Paquette
Author: Movember , Date: November 24th
The Movember Canada Family extends our hearts to the Paquette family, and to the families of all other Mo Bros and Mo Sistas who have been lost during this and other campaigns. May the Mo be with you and thank-you for your continued support. Together we are changing the face of men's health.
Garrett Roger Paquette Captain of Nanai-MO RBC Stallions 20 January 1981 - 11 November 2011
On November 11, 2011 we lost our team Captain, Mr. Garrett Roger Paquette in a tragic ATV accident. Garrett loved life and lived it to the fullest. As a true Canadian, his passions were, but not limited to; the great outdoors, camping, cooking, and sports. As a die-hard Toronto Maple Leaf fan, many of his close friends & family honoured him at his celebration of life by wearing Maple Leaf jerseys and proudly sporting Mo's. Movember was Garrett's latest cause that he got behind and led the charge on before the accident. He rallied together a group of Mo Bros and Mo Sistas at his workplace, the Royal Bank of Canada in Nanaimo BC, and formed a team called the Nanai-MO RBC Stallions. His motivation was to raise awareness for men's health. If this meant donating his upper lip to the cause, his hopes were to grow the meanest and ugliest Mo in the city. A brilliant idea, and proven success of Garrett's was to have a Mo-Jar that people contribute to every time our Moustaches are commented on.
Friends, Family, and co-workers have rallied around his ambition to support Movember and donations have been flooding into his Movember page currently at 12,092 and counting. In addition, the Royal Bank of Canada has just approved a donation to Movember on behalf of his team and in his honour, to the tune of $6,000. Owners of the Simon Holt restaurant in Nanaimo donated 2 tickets to the 2011 Grey Cup game. These tickets are being raffled off and all proceeds will be donated to Movember in honour of Mr. Paquette.
Garrett always wanted to do his part in giving back and helping others. His story and support for the Movember has left a lasting impression in many lives. Quoting his wife, Angela Paquette, "He would be so proud to see the support that has gathered around his cause. Garrett was always able to find the good in every situation and turn negative things into positive ones. Even in his passing, his legacy lives on."
RIP Mo Bro Garrett.

Hey, hey - My Colorado deer points went to zero! :o

Hey, hey - My Colorado deer points went to zero! :o
So did mine.
Mine went to 8.
0 points. Now to plan my 4th season hunt. I'm excited. I have hunted elk and pronghorn in Colorado and now deer.
I drew my muzzleloader tag and my wife drew a 4th season buck tag!
Mine went to zero as well. Another high-country archery mule deer hunt. Hopefully, I'll be able to make it (depending on if a draw for NV& UT archery deer and CA Tule elk). Either way, I'll be having some fun this year.
My points went up----dam! Probably just get a cow tag.
my points went from 0 to 1 for deer. I still plan to go to CO this year either OTC archery elk or try to get a landowner tag somehow.
Just put in for points only this year, now have 5, probably enough for what I want next year.

According to 9 to 5 Mac, the retail "Apple Store 2.0″ remodel has finally gone live. At least, it has in Australia (which is nearly a day ahead of the US), and results are in line with what's been generally rumored.
The biggest, most immediate changes indicate that Apple retail locations everywhere are going ever greener. Gone are the paper signs and placards adorning each product's position throughout the store, generously replaced by iPad 2s running custom, fully interactive apps designed to showcase each associated model in Apple's lineup. In theory, the move should serve to drive sales of devices both described and describing.
Additionally, these iPad "terminals" provide shoppers with "service call" functionality, allowing them to simply tap the screen for assistance and wait for a Specialist to mosey on over. (That feature, while certainly useful, could encourage some seriously irritating abuse, so hopefully Apple's ready to address any and all related shenanigans.)
As for the rest of the rumors — the "Startup Sessions," mega displays, the new iOS Apple Store app — we'll simply have to wait and see. Not every store will sport the same changes, so it might take a few days to roll out a truly comprehensive rundown.
And what about all that NFC business?

Early Scientific Computing in Britain by Mary Croarken, Oxford, pp 160, 25 Pounds.
In the early part of this century the most common computational aids used by scientists and engineers were mathematical tables, slide rules, nomograms, and, to a much lesser extent, mathematical instruments and calculating machines.
Nomograms, or graphs that represent a solution for a particular class of problems, became popular, particularly in France, in the late 19th century and were used principally by engineers, land surveyors and the military. The mathematical instrument appeared towards the end of the 19th century. Numbers were represented in these instruments by physical quantities, such as the length of a rod, the angular rotation of a wheel, the level of a liquid or a voltage. Mathematical instruments, nowadays called analogue machines, were often built to perform a specific function such as integration or harmonic analysis. Sir William Thomson built the first harmonic analyser ...

The Designers section is for making meaning to Quattria's definition as a design editing company and for recognizing their work.
Although a cliché, without our cooperation, Quattria would not be complete. They bring a great deal of creativity and innovation in creating new products that help to improve the quality of our homes.
Gauzak is an interdisciplinary team of industrial and product design.
Gauzak (basque lang.) means THINGS. It is all that has entity whether physical or spiritual, natural or artificial, real or abstract.
Design is in everything around us. it is not an exclusive value of some objects and products. It is both a planning and foreshadowing process existing in any social, cultural and economic context.
Designer Products
Elemento diseño was born in early 2009 in Viña del Mar (Chile). It was born out of the concern of two designers (Jaime Zuñiga and Emmanuel Gonzalez) for innovation in furniture and Chilean design scene. They do this through the concept of dual functionality in products.
This concept seeks to create furniture that has movement in space and interaction with the user, trying to mix or merge two elements into one.
For them to have furniture with dual functionality even if it is subtle, gives added value to the user.
Designer Products
Ricard Mollon studied Industrial Design Engineering at ELISAVA, Design School in Barcelona, Spain.
Although he is not a designed in the strictest sense, over the years he realized that everything around us is to do with industrial design.
As far as product is concerned, today it's not possible to split "industrial" from "design". Two words that should always go together because one without the other make no sense.
Designer Products
Andreu Capdevila, functional and conscious designer.
The study of the function, the user and experimentation with materials become the starting point when dealing with a new project. Neither there is form without function, nor success without mistakes. He searches for the essence of the objects by thinking constructively and leaving aside all that is purely decorative, everything that is not funtional.
Designer Products
Artik Project are: Jon Azkoitia, Eric Castelló and Jordi Pedemonte.
Before ending their careers they decided to work together in order to experiment and to carry out ideas that go beyond mere school projects.
For Artik Project new concepts lead to new types of products where their ideas are captured, and take on new challenges that intensify their passion for design.

The postman delivers
The pattern is traced and I'll hopefully make a muslin later today, after I've finished some more uni work. I think I'll be making a few of these this winter. Lovely cosy flannel dresses over tights with boots. I also don't have anything in my stash for a wearable dress, so will have to hit the shops.
6 comments:
Looks like a very cute pattern. Can't wait to see the finished result. If it's a great pattern then it's worth the extra expense. I know..much easier to spend paypal money isn't it?ReplyDelete
How did you manage to get your hands on it?? I want this! But I would need the large - just tell me your secrets!!ReplyDelete
I like the pattern. I saw something similar on someone else's blog a couple of months ago. I wish I could remember who it was.ReplyDelete
I have read about this pattern before but I could not bring myself to buy it for that much. I would love to see your version!ReplyDelete
Isn't PayPal just the best pretend money ever?? PlayPal, i love it!! Oh do show & tell what magic you make with this newly posted pattern. Love PosieReplyDelete
I just received my Tova pattern last week too! I can't believe I finally got one, it ALWAYS sells out, and then it just appeared on the Big Cartel site. Tessuti has a beautiful Japanese cotton check at the moment, I think I'm going to make a dress in that.ReplyDelete
And you're so right about PayPal being like play money. The other advantage is that anything I buy with PayPal doesn't show up on a credit card statement, so I don't have to explain to anyone why I spent that much on a sewing pattern ;)
Thanks for leaving a comment. I love reading them, but don't always have the time to respond. Please email me if you have a pressing question :)

Customer Reviews of Nikon Digital SLR Camera Bag Case & 60" Tripod/ 3-Way Panhead for D7000 D700 D300s D5000 D3100 D90
Nice but big8/30/2011
The bag is large but that is true of most gadget bags. It's great for storage during trips but can be a hassle when walking around with it (unless you are used to it or take pics for a living). Note that it did not come with a box or any retail packaging other than some plastic wrap.
A very good product!8/30/2011
The case that came with my Nikon camera was not large enough to hold the camera and accessories I had so I purchased this case. It is everything I expected when I first read about it.
Great Bag - Nikon Quality8/30/2011
I keep my Nikon D5000 extra lens and extra point-n-shoot in bag. I found that there was room above camera w/lens. So I raised the camera by building a box on the bottom to hold small accessories. Now it holds even more.
Great bag8/30/2011
Great for transporting equipment on vacations
Solid case8/30/2011
Good case for up to 2 casual lens
Nice Sturdy Bag8/30/2011
After one year of hard use the bag has no signs of wear. Good value for the dollar. Originally bought for my D-100 now my D-300s lives in there. It fits with the battery chargers a couple of lenses a flash lots of batteries and the documentation. It is indeed a very hand bag to have says I.
5874 Digital SLR Gadget bag8/30/2011
Love the bag and the camera...just need to make more time to use them.
good price!8/30/2011
Good product8/30/2011
Good product
A great camera bag for the price!8/30/2011
The camera case holds my Nikon DSLR w/kit lens and a small point and shoot a large zoom lens and several 'gadgets' (batteries remote shutter lens cloths etc.) so it is a great storage option. I've used it to transport my gear a couple times and found the shoulder strap to be handy.
super product would definitely purchase8/30/2011
very pleased with this product
Great Bag - Great Price8/30/2011
Good solid bag at a great price.
I love my bag!!8/30/2011
The bag was my first real camera bag and I love it! If you only have a couple of lenses to transport with your camera this will work. However I've accumulated more lenses and I'm going to have to get a bigger bag!
superb merchandise8/30/2011
Great camera bag room for at leaast 2 lenses and one body.
Quality Bag from Nikon8/30/2011
This case holds and protect my D5000 with 18-2000mm attached second lens flash charger memory cards and cleaning material.
Great Product at a Great Price8/30/2011
The high quality of this case will surprise you -- especially in view of the very reasonable price. I bought this case as a make do case until I could afford a little nicer (read more expensive) one. Given the quality and utility of this case I no longer have that need. The front side pocket is spacious enough for your user manual or even a Magice Lantern manual plus a few filters. The two side pockets hold an ample supply of extra batteries SD cards cleaning supplies etc. The main compartment is well-padded. This is a superb case at this price.
An EXCELLENT Bag and VERY Affordable!8/30/2011
I'm not afraid to take my equipment out in any sort of weather. A good strong bag!
OK for brief transport8/30/2011
This is well constructed and adequately padded. It will serve for casual use and a body and two lenses. It's not an assignment or field bag.
good product.8/30/2011
a good ordinary use but it is little tight for 3 different slr lenses and small accessories.
Nice bag for an amazing price.8/30/2011
This is a very nice camera bag for a Nikon D5000. Plenty of room for a lens and charger. Nicely built and very sturdy.
Good size SLR bag8/30/2011
This bag is just about right if you need a good case for an SLR with one extra lens filters flash etc. It is perfect in size lightweight and well padded.

America's Next Top Model
ANTM Cycle 19, Episode 5 Recap: Shocker! Three Cheers For Fallen Frontrunner
But … but … we thought Leila Goldkuhl would be in the America's Next Top Model Cycle 19 finale! Maybe it will still happen, since Leila left Episode 5: "The Girl Who Sings for Alicia Keys" but could still return later this season, if fans voted for her over the summer. She might actually have a chance. She'd have a better chance if voting were live (hint, hint, producers.) Like the sobbing Bryanboy, we had gap-toothed Leila on our list of favorites.
There were many tears this week — but not, for once, Victoria Henley crying for her mother. Not that we would've minded that, since Queen Victoria is our resident obsession. (Sorry, Laura James! Not even slightly obsessed with you.) Instead, Laura, Leila and Brittany Brown dominated the tear pool, with Laura joining forces with Kristin Kagay for a full blonde ambition tour, complete with extreme self-obsession and an even more extreme fear of heights. Seriously, it's bad enough to have one "B**ch Barbie" — are we going to have to deal with two? No one could withstand that much high school cheerleader snobbery. Until we meet again, Lady Leila...
Laura said she's never had that "double zero up and down little boy figure," so she thinks it's amazing that she's in this competition, representing girls who are amazing and strong. She didn't mention it, but she's also representing drop-dead gorgeous girls who are 6 feet tall — literally — and have a famous dads. (OK, semifamous. Her dad played Jeff Colby on Dynasty.) Leila is "obsessed" with Laura, or so some of the not-so-nice models decided. Laura comes from a good home and Leila apparently had it rougher growing up, so she admitted she envies Laura. (But she shouldn't envy Laura's extreme blonde eyebrows.) Laura won best photo last week and she got to pick someone else to hang out with in The Tyra Suite. Leila picked Laura when she won, but this time Laura picked … (dun dun DUN!) …. Kristin.
Laura and Kristin snarked about Leila in The Tyra Suite and Leila responded by telling Laura she was obsessed with herself. Laura started sobbing, 'cause that's what people used to say about her in school. (Well...) The whole thing exploded in front of everyone else. Ladies! Ladies! The truth is, no one is obsessed with either of you. We're all too busy being obsessed with Victoria. But, really, didn't it feel like a set-up for later in the season? Like, Leila vs. Laura at some point? Finale, anyone? Leila coming back? Later, Laura declared that Leila shouldn't be America's Next Top Model because she can't walk. Laura feels like she deserves to win more than Leila, because she's the full package. Apparently the ANTM package now includes a cliquish high school attitude. Take that, CoverGirl contract!
Kiara Belen, always primed for drama, lost her mind when she saw Alicia Keys and her curly hair in the house. She started singing at Alicia — in front of everyone — as if she were still playing the Hollywood diva from last week. Laura also started sobbing for some reason, like a replay of Victoria talking to her mom on the phone. How is Mrs. Henley doing this week? If only we knew...
Tyra Banks said the models would be doing a fashion show for Alicia's charity, Keep a Child Alive. The show was held that very night, based around Alicia's song, Girl on Fire, which sounds like a tribute to Katniss Everdeen of The Hunger Games. The models had to come up with a concept for how they looked, style-wise. Laura was group leader, which was a nice bit of karma because it put her in the path of Kelly "Cutthroat" Cutrone. Talk about girl on fire. Kelly breathes it every day! Kelly was surprised that Kristin, who is relatively short, looked like a real model on the runway. Leila, sounding near tears, told the camera that Kristin is a bad person and doesn't deserve to be there. Victoria said Allyssa Vuelma was "grinning a hole" through the audience like it was a beauty pageant. Tyra shouted out for Leila to move her arms while she was walking. Laura sniffed that Leila probably showed up thinking she had a great runway walk, but Tyra wasn't into it. But Tyra probably wouldn't shout out direction to a girl with no potential. She'd just whisper something to her companions, shake her head and prepare to dump the girl.
Tyra said Victoria, Laura and Kiara stood out the most. The girl that raised the most money for Keep a Child Alive was ... Kiara. Apparently it was a landslide. Second challenge win in a row for her. Once again … really? Allyssa had the lowest challenge score, at 5. Yvonne Powless and Leila both got 6s. Not good.
Not one of their best shoots, to be honest. The models had a tough time posing while in the air. Maybe they should've just had the girls model on the ground with those hot shirtless male cheerleaders. Allyssa actually hit one of the guys in the head and made him bleed. He should get paid extra for that. Laura is really scared of heights, so even though she was just bouncing a few feet above the ground, she cried about it. Again. At least her eyebrows looked good bright pink! She should keep that color. And then she should stop crying. Leila was mad that Kristin did well, but she said it was because Kristin is a cheerleader, not a model. (Don't stoop, Leila. Don't go to their level.) Johnny Wujek said Leila got stuck on "duck face," whatever that is. Johnny loved Nastasia Scott, saying she was in it to win it. Heck yeah. Nastasia's one of the good ones.
1. Nastasia — Best photo! Tyra Suite next week, which probably means a trip for Kiara. Rob Evans called this shot "crazy," which is his favorite compliment. Kelly loved the shot. She's owning the moment, Kelly said, but her face is a tiny bit too fierce for her. Tyra said the shot was powerful. It was dang good. One guy online named David found her too sexy. He keeps finding her too sexy. What he's trying to say is, "Nastasia, bring that sexy to me."
2. Laura — Rob said it looked like a little girl got really angry and threw her Barbie doll. (But B**tch Barbie Kristin is her BFF!) Kelly thought it was disturbing but she liked it. Tyra said it was weird and odd and could be in Nylon magazine. Laura cried again, talking about heights. Tyra said she played her fear into a strength. Really? Bouncing a few feet in the air?
3. Kristin — Rob, who has been hard on Kristin, admitted that her shot was "crazy," in a good way. He loved the shot. Kelly loved it too. Tyra called her shot "gorgeous" but she saw cheerleader not model. Kelly said Kristin could be in a ton of super cool magazines. It's Tyra vs. Kelly today! Fans at home still love Kristin, which is sad. Sad, people! Rob gave her a 10 for this. Wow.
4. Kiara — Kelly didn't love her face shot. Tyra disagreed, saying her skin was luminescent. Rob said there's nothing sadder than a beautiful bird that can't fly. Too true, lovah. Bryanboy said folks at home thought her face was sad.
5. Victoria — Not enough of Queen Vic in this episode. Just saying. Correct next week, editors. Kelly didn't like Victoria's body posture. "You look like a middle age man who's about to take a nap on a new bed." (Ha!) Rob liked the photo. Tyra thought it was "amazing." All over the place, these guys! Bryanboy loved the pic too. Social media wise, she's doing pretty well.
6. Yvonne — The judges loved her shot. Really? This was one of the worst.
7. Allyssa — Kelly called her shot "show pony carnival gone bad." Tyra said she saw cheerleader, model and sexy woman. Bryanboy said Allyssa is middle of the road average to fans at home.
Nooo! Horrible bottom two. These two should both be safe. Half a point separated the two.
Leila — Rob loved her body, but said she has a one-dimensional face. Kelly, love this, said "It looks like you've been bit on the eye by a mosquito at a drag queen slumber party." She's so specific! Everyone thinks Leila needs to step up. Kelly even gave her a 4 this week. Yikes.
Brittany — Kelly didn't like this shot at all. She thought, in the beginning, that Brittany would do well. Rob thought she wouldn't do well but she's proving him wrong. He thinks she could do all the way. Kelly argued with Rob too. Brittany cried on the runway. There was some discussion about how she's too Disney sweet. Huh. She seems to be doing well from here.
Leila! No! No! No! Bad call! Bring her back!
Let us vote online in a few weeks, based on what we've seen, to bring someone back in a special live finale. If they can do a special finale for All-Stars, after that weird Angelea Preston disqualification that will never be properly explained, they can do a special finale for this. We're the fourth judge and we have spoken!
Catch the next episode of America's Next Top Model Cycle 19: College Edition on Friday, September 28 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.

What To Do When She Keeps Her Ex Around
reader's questionHi Doc,
I wish I found out about "The System" before entering the relationship I'm in now.
When I met Christie in June, she was just coming out of a five-year relationship with what you call a Macho Boy, except that he is also very needy and constantly needs her approval. When we met, she had moved out of his bedroom and into a separate room in his house, and was actively looking for a way out.
Within four weeks of being together, we both became very emotionally attached to each other. We both had 95%-plus Interest Level, but by the third week of September, Christie began to lose interest, and told me she was putting our relationship "on the back burner" while she figures out what she's going to do and gets her act together. That just about drove me bonkers.
Since then, she and I have continued to get together. She tells me she loves me, and when we're together she shows me her love through her actions. Part of the problem she has with getting out of the other guy's life is due to several factors:
1) He's very wealthy and she's afraid of what things will be like if she's away from that wealth 2) They jointly own property 3) She works for his excavation firm, which does environmental restoration projects for a tribal reservation in the area.
i was a wimpI think my problem, now that I've read your dating guide, is that I've been that teddy bear guy you refer to — Wimpus Americanus . During the whole time she and I have been together, I've said "no" maybe three times. Also, when I call her, I tend to leave messages (she bought a cell phone, but of course the guy whose house she's still in doesn't know about it, though he does know about me) and when we do talk, she nearly always ends the conversation before I do.
Also, I e-mail her copious amounts of messages, where in turn she'll leave maybe one, consisting of three lines. And of course, mine always seem to start and end with "I love yous" and various compliments.
Does this sound familiar yet? Wait, it gets worse...

Universal Studios Singapore
Awesome!! Although smaller than the US based Universal Parks this park made every ride and attraction count, still plenty to fill a day. There were rides for people of all ages, my 4 year loved the "Enchanted Airways" kids roller coaster and "Canopy" ride. My 8 year loved the Battlestar Galactica ride especially the "Cylon" side, which I also think is one of the best coasters I have been on. – Oct 24, 2011.

While the giant ships and souks were the highlight of the Maritime Experiential Museum for me, there are some traditional museum displays with 15th century artefacts like pottery and coins behind glass. – Oct 19,2011

Smarter Car RentingHere are car rental tips from the road trip-seasoned editors of RoadsideAmerica.com:
• Many States, One Car:If renting a car for a longer road trip, check with the car rental companies in Lockhart, Texas to see if they have policies about crossing state lines that affect the final rate you pay. May be no effect, but don't assume you can crisscross the globe with unlimited mileage impunity. There may be a GPS tracker in the car!
• Car Types:When selecting a car type, remember it's not just about how cool you'll appear. The car selection page details show an average of how many people and how many pieces of luggage can comfortably fit in each car type. Pay attention to the specifics to be certain they meet your needs before booking.
• Damaged:Always carefully eyeball your vehicle before leaving the rental agency, whether you're in Lockhart or East Podunkville. The last renter may have pulled in after a meteor shower! Prior scratches, dents, and other vehicle damage can cause extra headaches and costs if not noted before you leave the rental car lot. If you see any damage on the car's exterior and interior before you leave, make sure it's noted on the rental car papers, and point it out to an agency employee. This will resolve any questions that could arise when you return. And avoid meteor showers.

Fun to be with
I am a fun, intelligent person with a bit of a dry sense of humor who would like to meet a man who can make me laugh, first and foremost, and who can hold a good conversation. I like gentle guys with confidence, but without a huge ego. I am a jeans n' t-shirt kind of gal but can do okay dressed up. I enjoy hiking, biking, camping, and a bit of golf. I work very hard and enjoy my leisure time enjoying new things as often as possible. I absolutely love animals of all kinds, and try to do my part in helping animals whenever I can. Hoping to find a bright guy who doesn't take himself too seriously, and above all who has an inate common sense about the world and how to treat people, animals and the environment. I'm a grammar geek with a love of etymology and enjoy good wordplay too. If you asked me about my ideal things..a few would be: An awesome craft beer with good friends. Laughter. Sushi with some unfiltered sake. Going to an Astros game. Watching the Texans and still learning about football after all these years. Seeing a photography exhibit. Enjoying a movie and then talking about it afterwards. Cooking (or trying to!) Sharing the joys of being with a special person. You: open minded and have awareness that not everyone shares the same religious or political beliefs as you, and a respect for other cultures as your own. I lean towards liberal which hasn't made me very popular here in Texas. :( Ethnocentric folks need not apply! I've been all around the world and accept other cultures and hope you feel the same. I'm interested most in getting to know people and enjoying the differences that make life rich and wonderful. I'm looking for a partner to share life's joys with have fun in the process.

I love going to Astros and Aeros games, hiking out at Brazos Bend state park, and walking around the Galveston strand or along the waterfront.
I'm a sushi fanatic, and enjoy learning about cuisine of other cultures. Traveling is very important to me and I'd like to not only see more of our world, but of cities in America that I've not yet had the opportunity to visit.

I would like to share with you all an incident (well it is still on going) that has recently occurred when a Aussie gentleman (Ian Clark) who rides a Honda Goldwing Motorcycle (2008 GL1800) asked the Goldwing Road Riders Association (GWRRA) magazine (WingWorld) technical writer (Stu Oltman) for assistance on how to connect a UHF radio to his Goldwing.
The players in this drama (hi hi) are:
Ian Clark, of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, who is asking for assistance in installing a UHF radio on his 2008 Goldwing.
Stu Oltman, technical writer, Workbench column, WingWorld Magazine.
Robert Renfro, AC7KH/ON9CKH, Extra Class and 1st Class Radiotelephone/GROL licensee. who is trying to get some assistance to Ian on how to hook up his radio. I too am a Goldwing motorcycle (2003 GL1800) rider
See page 29 of the November 2010 issue of WingWorld magazine, UHF CB Radio ?, for the complete article.
The article has Ian asking for assistance for hooking up a UHF radio and Stu's response:
Ian, there is no UHF radio I'm aware of that will interface with the bike's audio controls, wiring, or displays...Stu
to which I replied via email and have included Stu's response, Stu's response is first my initial respone to him is second:
So Robert - let me make sure I understand what you're saying. Because I'm unfamiliar with an obscure hobby that perhaps one one hundredth of one percent of all Gold Wing riders participate in, I'm giving GWRRA a bad name. Is that about it? I have news for you pal, it's not all about you. If you're so bloody concerned about it, feel free to contact Marc yourself.

From: Robert R Renfro
Sent: Thursday, October 14, 2010 6:33 PM
To: firstname.lastname@example.com
Subject: UHF Radio
Reference your reply to Ian Clark, I hate to tell you this but there are quire a few HF, VHF, UHF radios that will hook up to the gl1000, gl1100, gl1200, gl1500 and 1800. I my self am running a ICOM IC-706 on mine which includes UHF, VHF, and HF in one radio. Let me refer you to the MARC (Motorcycle Amateur Radio Club) www.marc-hq.org and also this vendor who provides different types of interfaces to the various models of motorcycles and radios. I use a Kennedy interface to connect my rig to 2003 GL18000. There are many of us here in San Antonio, called the Motor Marshalls who provide amateur radio (again VHF, UHF, and HF radio support for many events in the San Antonio, Texas area to include IRON MAN and the Valero MS-Ride to the River). My Kennedy interface connects through my intercom and operates via a push to talk button on the handle bar. Please have Ian contact MARC through their web site. I am sure they will be glad to help him connect his UHF radio. Don't give all of GWRRA a bad name by saying he can't hook one up.
Robert Renfro
Your comments are welcome and in fact if you know Ian please contact him and let him know where to get help and or assistance.

most use pubmed for research papers , remember tho forums like this are one big research facility with more input than alot of studies , i.e do a search for tren and cross reference the sides ppl are getting , do the same for anavar , etc etc , then look at the compounds mode of action.
if you have the time and patience to cross reference ppls experiences with a compound its pretty easy to build up a picture of sides/expected effects/dosages etc etc.
*make sure you read the papers thoroughly on pubmed , some ppl were famous for posting studies here that had nothing to do with what they were saying if you read them , i.e wrong subject or non human

Greetings of the season, Sonoma. Have you made your resolutions for 2014?
I'll bet if you look back at your New Year's resolutions over the past several years, and perhaps even longer, they've all been pretty similar. If not, great, that means you either accomplished your goal or moved on to other goals. If you find that you are setting the same health and fitness goals year after year, you are probably not having much success in achieving them.
Why is that? You know the old saying, "the definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over?" Well, sometimes it does feel like insanity when it comes to reaching our health and fitness goals. I believe these are the most challenging goals for a person to reach because our health and wellness is the direct result of our lifestyle habits, and, as we all know, habits are hard to break. Especially when it comes to what we eat and how we exercise, because both require a lot of discipline.
So how then do we successfully create new habits? Well, you must decide to be a healthy person. Period.
Healthy people eat healthy because they want to. They eat healthy because it makes them feel great, have good energy, have clear minds, and look good. They exercise because it gives them energy and keeps them at a physical health standard that is top priority. Healthy people build their lives around making the choices that will support their personal standard of being happy and whole. They are emotionally attached to those standards, and deviating too much from them makes them feel out of balance from their norm, which motivates them to quickly get back on track. Because they are emotionally invested in being healthy, they also spend a lot of time getting educated and associating with others who are healthy. They wouldn't have it any other way, because its what they love. They don't just set a goal or two and reluctantly focus on them, they navigate their world based on healthy choices and embrace the process.
So if you find it difficult making healthy choices or embracing a healthy way of living, and if you approach your health plan by setting a goal or two such as counting calories or hitting the treadmill a few times a week, chances are you will end up back at the same place you started at the beginning of the year.
You want to become a healthy person. Period. If you find you have to dig deep for the right discipline to stay healthy, you are probably still needing to find that emotional motivation and reward for living a healthy lifestyle. It does come, it really does, but it is a process. A process that requires first starting with a statement and a decision about wanting to be a healthy person. A realization of what that looks like, and letting go of a negative mindset when it comes to making healthy choices. It's not about "giving things up," its about loving yourself enough to embrace some new ideas and choices for living your life to it's fullest.
Here are my top 10 suggestions for how to be a healthy person in 2014:
You will notice I did not tell you to count calories, nor did I tell youth go vegan, paleo, Adkins, or any other extreme program. You will find and embrace an approach that feels right for you as you embrace a healthy mindset, community and lifestyle. Once you learn to love being healthy you will be led down the path that interests you the most. As you discover the world of healthy living you will meet people who are positive, inspiring, and motivating.
People who are healthy and happy. If nothing else, do it to be part of a community of happy people, and soon you will see the infectious positive results in all areas of your life. Do this, and by 2015 you will be a healthy person, too.

Why hello! Sorry I've been so bad about this blog in the past few months, it's just been non-stop work and excitement this semester! I've been busy with the marching band, applying for (and receiving, as of this weekend) a grant to do research on campus, doubling the size of my fraternity (a huge accomplishment!), trying to continue flight lessons, giving tours, tutoring a couple students, and a tough class load on top of that! Not that it's not rewarding; it just uses up almost all of my time!
This post, I'd like to talk about my fraternity experience/fraternity life here at CU. Something like 12% of students are involved in Greek life at CU. This is a great number because it means we have a vibrant Greek community, but non-Greek students are not alienated on our campus, unlike some other large schools. Personally, when I came to CU, I didn't expect to join a fraternity at all. Coming from Austin, in the shadow of UT, I was used to the fraternity scene, and it didn't really interest me. I knew that if I did join a fraternity, it'd be Alpha Epsilon Pi, the national Jewish fraternity. Unlike some multi-cultural based Greek organizations, AEPi is a social fraternity just like any other, but it just happens to be all Jewish men, which is a really cool thing on a huge college campus. I didn't really seek out AEPi at CU, but they somehow found me, and eventually, I found myself pledging. I hadn't planned on it, but the experience offered and the potential friendships made by joining a fraternity really sold me on the subject.
Long story short, it's been an awesome two years in AEPi. The brotherhood I share is so strong, and I know that my brothers and I will stay in touch forever. We have a bond that not many have the privilege to experience. In addition to all that stuff, I've gotten a ton of leadership experience that is relevant to all of my other extracurricular activities, especially Student Ambassadors. I've been the Lt. Master (essentially Vice President, in charge of all internal affairs) for the past year and a half, which has been both the most challenging and most rewarding part of college so far. Being in a fraternity has also allowed me to gain and hone many skills such as my public speaking, event planning, and time management skills. If there's one skill I've developed most in my time in AEPi, it's time management. I'm involved in so many activities that if I couldn't manage my time well, I'd be toast by now.
In the past 3 or 4 years, our chapter of AEPi has been very small. When I joined, we were a solid 25-man chapter, and over my freshman year, we dwindled to a scary minimum of 12 brothers. We've been on the rebound ever since, slowly rebuilding. We started this semester with 17 brothers, which included all of our new pledges from the year before, minus the graduating seniors and brothers who decided to leave. Now that we're in a new house, we had the chance to essentially start over. With a ton of ground-work and a lot of networking, we are on track to double the size of our fraternity (assuming all of our 17 pledges make it through the pledge program!), which is huge for us.
It's really, really neat to see the fruits of my two-year labor. I'm really excited to see what these new men do with our chapter, and to come back in 5 years to a campus leading chapter. Stay tuned for more (and more frequent) updates!

Our College Edition, presented by RTP, invites two students from every university, college and community college, in Orange, Durham, Wake and Chatham counties, to meet in various locations around the Triangle. We are told we are the only program in the region that brings all these schools together. We welcome the input they give to Leadership Triangle as to the future needs of the region, especially for this age group.The 2013 Leadership Triangle Awards Gala presented by the Carolina Hurricanes were a roaring success. We look forward to a repeat performance December 11 2014, in Bay 7, when we celebrate the 12th annual awards banquet.
Our Alumni Network is stronger than ever before. We encourage graduates to view the class as step #1, then involvement with "Goodmon Fellows" through the LT Alumni Network as the on-going benefit of Leadership Triangle throughout the years. Join the LT Alumni Network and reap the benefits of membership.
