Comments about Cashel G2 Soft Saddle:
This is my second Cashel G2 Soft Saddle and I love them. I have two Tuckers but this saddle only weighs 6 pounds and is so easy to put on the horse. Since they are treeless, you need a very good saddle pad, preferably one that has a cut-out at the withers. This is necessary because since the saddle is treeless, it fits very closely to the horse, which means that it "cuts into" the withers unless you have a thick saddle pad that keeps the saddle from touching the withers. This is VERY important! The only problem I've had with the Cashel saddle is that it is very difficult to cinch up tight enough, but not so tight that I turn my horse into a "peanut." This means that the saddle will slip a lot when riding; fortunately I (currently, lol) have very good balance and can compensate for the slippage. We tend to ride 10-15 miles, 2-3 hours at a time~~that could be why the saddle slips! The reason I have two of these saddles is because the "medium" is actually very small. I am 5'4", 125 pounds and it's too small for me. The "large" fits quite well. Also, I added "EZ endurance" stirrups for my comfort. The saddle, those stirrups, and the girth probably weigh 10 pounds altogether~~pretty darn nice! Yes, I would recommend this saddle, but not to novice riders because of the tendency to slip so much. It's well worth the price. I'll try to post a picture later.

Offshore Wind Farms: Feds Encourage More Development
By WGBH News
Back in 2001, Jim Gordon and his partners had a vision that the future of clean energy in Massachusetts would be a giant wind farm on the shoals of Nantucket Sound. But 13 years and many lawsuits later, the Cape Wind project has yet to begin construction.
Still, state officials say wind power has a bright future, pointing to an announcement this week that federal authorities will soon open up almost 1,200 square miles of coastal waters for wind-energy development.
WGBH News Science Editor Heather Goldstone explains which way the wind is blowing.

Jack is five years old. He loves watching 'SpongeBob Squarepants' and 'Dora the Explorer'. He loves playing 'Simon Says' and singing nursery rhymes with his Ma. He loves the candy and chocolates they sometimes get for Sundaytreat.
Jack loves his Ma. He loves Room. To Jack, Room is his entire world. Jack doesn't really understand why Ma doesn't love Room as much as he does.
Room is where Jack was born; it's where he and his Ma eat and sleep and play and learn. At night, Ma makes sure to shut him safely into the wardrobe, where Jack is meant to sleep when Old Nick visits.
To Jack, Room means home; it means safety. But to Ma, Room means prison. Room is the place where Ma has been held for the past seven years.
Yet, her fierce love for her son has made it possible for her to make a life for him. She has created a life for both of them; inside this eleven-by-eleven-foot space. But Jack's curiosity is building alongside Ma's own desperation - and she knows for certain that Room cannot contain either for much longer.
I must say that I absolutely loved reading this book. Yes, it was an extremely difficult story to read; terrifyingly and heart-breakingly sad, but also remarkably funny in parts. In my opinion, Ms. Donoghue's writing style is absolutely fabulous; so riveting and poignant. This book is a gripping yet hopeful story - a truly fantastic novel that I thoroughly enjoyed reading. I give this book an A+!
This is an unusual book but I am glad I picked it.
Jack is 5 years old and lives with his Mum in 1 room, she was kidnapped 7 years ago by a horrible man known as old Nick.
Jack only has his Mum, toys and TV he knows nothing of the outside world.
Mum hatches a plan to get Jack out and call for help. Jack has to learn how to adapt to the big bad real world.
Very moving and original book,
An engaging and moving book with a unique narrative voice. Also, intensely claustrophobic.
Room is one of those kind of books that stay with you long after you turn the last page. It was a very powerful and emotional story. The story is told through the eyes of Jack, a 5 year old little boy. His world consists of "Room" where his mother has been kept since she was kidnapped years ago by Old Nick. The book is an account of their life in Room, and how they deal with the world outside once the situation changes. I found this very powerful because there have been true cases of people imprisoned for years until they were rescued. This is really an amazing book and I highly recommend it.

Room is disturbing, thrilling, and emotionally compelling. Emma Donoghue has produced a novel that is sure to stay in the minds of readers for years to come.
This is a truly memorable novel, one that can be read through myriad lenses — psychological, sociological, political. It presents an utterly unique way to talk about love, all the while giving us a fresh, expansive eye on the world in which we live.
the book's second half is less effective than its first. Perhaps this is inevitable given the changed circumstances of the protagonists. The walls that enclosed them also intensified their drama.
Wrenching, as befits the grim subject matter, but also tender, touching and at times unexpectedly funny.
Donoghue's great strength -- apart from her storytelling gift -- is her emotional intelligence. We get just enough information to feel uncomfortable -- and therefore, to question our assumptions about how family life ought to be; and to know that life will always be an unequal struggle.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0316098337, Hardcover)Amazon Best of the Month, September 2010: In many ways, Jack is a typical 5-year-old. He likes to read books, watch TV, and play games with his Ma. But Jack is different in a big way--he has lived his entire life in a single room, sharing the tiny space with only his mother and an unnerving nighttime visitor known as Old Nick. For Jack, Room is the only world he knows, but for Ma, it is a prison in which she has tried to craft a normal life for her son. When their insular world suddenly expands beyond the confines of their four walls, the consequences are piercing and extraordinary. Despite its profoundly disturbing premise, Emma Donoghue's Room is rife with moments of hope and beauty, and the dogged determination to live, even in the most desolate circumstances. A stunning and original novel of survival in captivity, readers who enter Room will leave staggered, as though, like Jack, they are seeing the world for the very first time. --Lynette Mong
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:10:24 -0400)
Narrator Jack and his mother, who was kidnapped seven years earlier when she was a 19-year-old college student, celebrate his fifth birthday. They live in a tiny, 11-foot-square soundproofed cell in a converted shed in the kidnapper's yard. The sociopath, whom Jack has dubbed Old Nick, visits at night, grudgingly doling out food and supplies. But Ma, as Jack calls her, proves to be resilient and resourceful--and attempts a nail-biting escape.… (more)

It was a decision I fought with from mile 1.5 of the Mount Desert Island Marathon on Sunday, whether or not I could fight through the pain in my foot for another 24 or so miles.
Ultimately, at mile 11, I decided that even though I probably could have finished, it wasn't a good idea.
Let me start from the beginning...
I ran a marathon two weeks prior to this one and came out pretty much unscathed and was looking forward to this race as I have made it a tradition the last three years. Then in our kickball game on Thursday night, the very large man who played first base for the other team was standing directly in the baseline as I was at a full-out spring. In order to avoid smashing into him, and probably really hurting myself, I inadvertently slammed the heel of my bad foot into the ground.
Almost immediately I felt a pain that I knew wasn't good. For two weeks or so I had been running pretty much pain free, thinking I had conquered PF for good and then this.
The two days prior to the race I iced, rolled and stretched at every possible minute and even though it was pretty sore while they blared ACDC's "Thunderstruck" at the starting line, I thought I could power through. I am VERY stubborn and after putting in all of the work and driving to the race I loved so much, I didn't want to not run.
The gun sounded and we were off. Immediately I had a problem... I missed the powersave beeps from my Garmin and had to relocate myself after I crossed the line so my watch was way off. After about a mile I was feeling okay. Another half mile, not so okay.
I took a walk break at 1.5 and contemplated turning around to join DBF and my parents at breakfast but, stubborn as I am, I soldiered on.
Over the hilly course the pain got progressively worse.
Fast forward to mile 10 and I had decided that it wasn't worth hurting myself permanently to finish. I knew I could run one (closer to two) more miles where I would see my family for the first time so I pushed on. As soon as I spotted DBF's hat and red jacket I burst into tears and limped off the course. He knew how much pain I had been in before the start and just tried to console me.
I've never quit in the middle of a race, no matter the pain level, so mentally this has all been a little hard for me to deal with. My parents left and DBF and I had one more night in town and hearing everyone talk about their great race experience and their PRS was so hard for me to hear. I wanted to be happy for them but I just couldn't.
So now, I will take some time off. Though not completely because I will be a raging monster to deal with if I do that. I'll elliptical and bike and whatever else I can do until the pain in my foot is gone. I know I have to take it slow and come back easy but I loathe the idea of not running; its not good for me mentally with everything I have gone through in my past. Running basically saved me from my eating disorder in high school and from a relapse just last year. Not being able to do so could be very difficult.
That being said....I'm looking into spring races. Namely the Pineland Farms Trail Festival, either the 50k or 50 miler. I'm not sure which I should do but I can't register for another week so I've got some time. Any recommendations on which ultra to tackle first? My brain says that I should definitely go with the 50k but I like a challenge so my heart says 50 miler. I suppose I should probably wait until I'm healed to start thinking about it though...
Happy running.
How awful for you! Heal up that heel so you can get back to doing what you love.
- Emma (formerly MJ --- it's a long story)
So sorry you are hurt, you probably did the right thing even though it's hard to swallow, hang in there and heal up!
Lots of courage to stop when you knew it was the right thing. Feel better soon.
I definitely agree!
A DNF is going to hurt, but it will make you mentaly stronger the next race you run as well as making finishing your next race that much sweeter. Heel up.
You did the right thing as hard as it was to do. I know a runner who pulled out of the MCM at mile 2 a few years ago, and I always admired that decision for the courage it took to make it. She'll be running New York in a couple of weeks. You'll be back.
I've DNF'd a marathon, and it sucks, but you definitely did the right thing! You'll be back, better than ever, and sooner now since you didn't force your foot through another 15 miles. Keep your eye on that spring ultra, whichever distance you pick!
I DNF'd a trail marathon, in order to keep from injuring myself for my goal races last weekend. It sucks and doesn't feel right for a while. Once you get to the next race the smartness of the decision to DNF appears. Id say start with 50k and run the last 5 miles really strong as a preparation for a future 50 miler.
Life's a little better when we run.
Ouch. Trying to run a marathon with an injury is really not much fun. Probably better that you stopped and didn't keep going and make things even worse. Hope things heal up quickly for you.
So, so sorry.
Attitude is everything
+1 to all of the comments above.
In order to keep doing this crazy thing we do, we have to think long-term and be smart about how we treat our bodies. A DNF is not a failure.
Live to race another day! There are always races ... every weekend, everywhere. No sense in hurting yourself over just one. That competitive nature sucks sometimes .... but you made the right call.
DNF's really suck. I've had four of them. The first one is the worst. It gets easier, especially after you heal and then get your redemption race. You did the right thing to pull the plug when you did.
I think u made the right call. If only i knew, i could had spectated.

Brilliant cocktails and a very swanky bar :)
Everyone who comes to this place is an arsehole and the bar staff are the worst bar staff ever.
Do not order the cocktails on a Saturday night......😣
£5 for SN pale ale? Whaaaaat?!? I'm not in London people!!!
Nice burgers but service was v slow
Asked how much for bottle of wine, then at till told £10 more! Wouldn't honour first price given...not good service :(
Get extra syrup with your eggy bread!
Don't order food disappointed again. Dry fish cakes with dry old salad a rip off. Even get the natchos wrong!
Am I the only person not employed here? Food is bland at best, not worth it at all!
Pimms & lemonade all the way!
Food's good for a light evening meal or lunch. The beer always seems to be on the turn though! Either the young staff don't know how to keep it or the pipes need a good flushing out.
so lovely here.. gets rather busy on a friday afternoon though

The Artist Who Forged Himself
René Magritte may have been one of the twentieth century's great Surrealist painters, but for income, he created and trafficked forgeries of famous works by artists such as Picasso, Ernst…and Magritte. Further confusing matters, his forging could in itself be a grand Surrealist statement. The Independent attempts to explain:

One is an original. The other, evidently, a copy. But René Magritte was a Surrealist, and the truth behind The Flavour of Tears suggests he was enjoying a huge – and probably lucrative – joke.
The Flavour of Tears was produced around the time Magritte's close friend Marcel Mariën claimed Magritte was creating forgeries. In his 1983 autobiography, Le Radeau de la Mémoire, Mariën said Magritte was making money by selling and producing forgeries of works by Picasso, Titian, Max Ernst, Giorgio de Chirico and Meindert Hobbema.
Two collectors saw The Flavour of Tears independently in Magritte's studio. "We can only assume Magritte painted two identical versions of the same painting.
Salvador Dalí Made a Cartoon with Walt Disney (Video)
In 1946, Salvador Dalí collaborated with Walt Disney animators on Destino, a surrealist animation that was storyboarded but scrapped due to budgetary concerns. Destino wouldn't be finished until 2003, when Roy Disney resurrected the project. Melting clocks à la Disney!

ELIZABETHTON, Tenn. (AP) -- A house fire in Carter County has killed a woman.
The Johnson City Press reported the blaze broke out in a home in the Roan Mountain community.
The victim was identified as 58-year-old Jackie Malone Hampton. Firefighters said her family operated a leather craft shop adjacent to the house and her son found the house on fire when he went to check on her.
The fire on Friday was too hot for family members to rescue Hampton, who was bedridden.

What $30 Million Can Buy You
11:04 AM, Aug 8, 2011 • By JOHN MCCORMACK
At least $30 million has already been spent in total on the Wisconsin state senate recall elections and that number may rise to an eye-popping $40 million when it's all over. To give some perspective on just how crazy that is, that's about 10 times more than all expenditures on state legislative races in 2010 and about 7 times more than the spending on the state supreme court race earlier this year. In 2010, Russ Feingold and Ron Johnson spent about $35 million on the U.S. Senate race, but that was spread around the entire state, not concentrated in just one quarter of all senate districts. With all that cash, you can buy a whole lot of attack ads running pretty much nonstop.
Here's just a taste of the ads attacking Republican state senators:
And here are a couple of ads attacking their Democratic opponents:
What will the lucky winner get in return? The majority of one half of one third of state government for a little more than a year. The winners of the recall elections tomorrow will have to defend their seats again in November 2012 to win a full 4-year state senate term. But both sides clearly seem to think the recall elections are important--psychologically, if nothing else--in the run-up to next year's likely election to recall Governor Scott Walker.

The Waiting Game
It's been almost three months since Leesburg's Buster Posey saw his promising sophomore season with the Giants come crashing down. But through all the painful rehab and mental anguish of being unable to help the World Series champions defend their crown, there has been some good to come out of it all -- impending parenthood with his wife, Kristen. So as Posey bides his time and tries to get healthy -- and as he awaits the birth of twins any day now -- the only game the former Lee County star is able to play right now is the waiting game.

Our long-term 2011 Mini Countryman is nearing the end of its year-long stay in the Autoblog Garage, the past six months of which have been spent bouncing back and forth between the various Detroit-based team members (and Cleveland – we mustn't forget about Herr Neff). And while we've all had plenty of time behind the wheel of the biggest Mini, this is one car that always seems to be in high demand, whether its for long road trips or just because we all really like driving the thing.

No current Talk conversations about this book.
The last 100 pages of this book made this novel for me. Barbara Kingsolver is so incredibly talented, I loved how she handled the voices and characterization of the sisters. I considered giving it four stars but I slogged for a good bit it and that definitely didn't seem fair to the books I've loved and given that same rating. A powerful read!
A missionary takes his wife and four daughters to a tiny village in the Congo in 1959. As events will show he is not a particularly good missionary. Nor is he a particularly good husband or father, but he will shape and scar their lives indelibly with his certainties and his vanities and his colossal foolishness. The story is told through the voices of the wife and the four daughters, the women who will be made and remade by the missionary and by Africa, just as the Congo is being made and remade by other men with their own agendas and certainties and vanities. They're not very good missionaries or fathers to this country, either.
Told in the most beautiful, brilliant, expressive prose that describes lush jungles, the intricacies of village life, the thoughts and feelings of four girls and one woman as they struggle to live in this new place. Wonders and horrors abound, the everyday joys and cruelties of a community with its own ways and its own voices. The story takes us through the slow degradation of the missionary, mostly because of his own ignorance, to a terrible family tragedy that catapults the survivors out onto the larger tragedy of the Congo, it liberation and betrayal and brutal exploitation.
An incredible, epic, powerful, deeply moving novel that vibrates with anger and struggles with terrible questions of life and survival in the midst of brutality.
In 1959, a missionary family moves to Belgian Congo. Nathan Price tries to convert the natives while his wife and four daughter try to survive and come to terms with a very different culture. The four daughter group up against the backdrop of political upheaval of the Congo Independence movement. Each of the characters react and develop in different ways as a result of their exposure to the Congolese.
"Deep calls out to deep ...", Psalms 42:7. Many passages from the Bible (including the Apocrypha) are quoted in The Poisonwood Bible to give insight into the characters and their thoughts. I don't remember seeing this one, but it is a passage that provides insight into my own thoughts as I read this awesome novel. I enjoy browsing reviews after finishing a book and I was struck by how polarizing this book was. This work of fiction certainly gives much to offend the reader, where few stones (of the human experience) are left unturned.
Some negative reviewers reacted to what appears to be an anti-American-Christian-culture message. May I suggest a different understanding? The newly landed, missionary family encounters a tree in the Congo that appears to be useful but the inhabitants warn the family away from the Poisonwood tree because it is poisonous to contact. This is a lesson that the all-knowing, father, with his colonialist mindset, learns slowly. I am left understanding the importance of learning the deeper role that factors play in this world; that accepting the surface message as whole can be dangerous. Good book.
Exquisite. The overall point is very simple, about how impossible it is to transplant a worldview into a completely foreign environment, yet the writing is extremely subdues and subtle. On a technical note, I have never read a story narrated by five alternated first person protagonists, and five out of five women at that. It is very unique and effective for this book. Telling the "wide" story of a country in revolution from the "narrow" perspective of an eleven-year-old girl is difficult, and [a:Barbara Kingsolver|3541|Barbara Kingsolver|https://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1350499031p2/3541.jpg] achieves it. I feel a bit bad for the father though, as he never has the chance to defend himself against an increasingly embittered family. And I don't at all understand the two-book, 150 page "epilogue" of an ending.
Kingsolver once wrote that ""The point [of portraying other cultures] is not to emulate other lives, or usurp their wardrobes. The point is to find sense.'' Her effort to make sense of the Congo's tragic struggle for independence is fully realized, richly embroidered, triumphant.
A writer who casts a preacher as a fool and a villain had best not be preachy. Kingsolver manages not to be, in part because she is a gifted magician of words--her sleight-of-phrase easily distracting a reader who might be on the point of rebellion. Her novel is both powerful and quite simple. It is also angrier and more direct than her earlier books.
The Congo permeates ''The Poisonwood Bible,'' and yet this is a novel that is just as much about America, a portrait, in absentia, of the nation that sent the Prices to save the souls of a people for whom it felt only contempt, people who already, in the words of a more experienced missionary, ''have a world of God's grace in their lives, along with a dose of hardship that can kill a person entirely.''
Although ''The Poisonwood Bible'' takes place in the former Belgian Congo and begins in 1959 and ends in the 1990's, Barbara Kingsolver's powerful new book is actually an old-fashioned 19th-century novel, a Hawthornian tale of sin and redemption and the ''dark necessity'' of history.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0060786507, Paperback)Oprah Book Club® Selection, June 2000: As any reader of The Mosquito Coast knows, men who drag their families to far-off climes in pursuit of an Idea seldom come to any good, while those familiar with At Play in the Fields of the Lord or Kalimantaan understand that the minute a missionary sets foot on the fictional stage, all hell is about to break loose. So when Barbara Kingsolver sends missionary Nathan Price along with his wife and four daughters off to Africa in The Poisonwood Bible, you can be sure that salvation is the one thing they're not likely to find. The year is 1959 and the place is the Belgian Congo. Nathan, a Baptist preacher, has come to spread the Word in a remote village reachable only by airplane. To say that he and his family are woefully unprepared would be an understatement: "We came from Bethlehem, Georgia, bearing Betty Crocker cake mixes into the jungle," says Leah, one of Nathan's daughters. But of course it isn't long before they discover that the tremendous humidity has rendered the mixes unusable, their clothes are unsuitable, and they've arrived in the middle of political upheaval as the Congolese seek to wrest independence from Belgium. In addition to poisonous snakes, dangerous animals, and the hostility of the villagers to Nathan's fiery take-no-prisoners brand of Christianity, there are also rebels in the jungle and the threat of war in the air. Could things get any worse?
In fact they can and they do. The first part of The Poisonwood Bible revolves around Nathan's intransigent, bullying personality and his effect on both his family and the village they have come to. As political instability grows in the Congo, so does the local witch doctor's animus toward the Prices, and both seem to converge with tragic consequences about halfway through the novel. From that point on, the family is dispersed and the novel follows each member's fortune across a span of more than 30 years.
The Poisonwood Bible is arguably Barbara Kingsolver's most ambitious work, and it reveals both her great strengths and her weaknesses. As Nathan Price's wife and daughters tell their stories in alternating chapters, Kingsolver does a good job of differentiating the voices. But at times they can grate--teenage Rachel's tendency towards precious malapropisms is particularly annoying (students practice their "French congregations"; Nathan's refusal to take his family home is a "tapestry of justice"). More problematic is Kingsolver's tendency to wear her politics on her sleeve; this is particularly evident in the second half of the novel, in which she uses her characters as mouthpieces to explicate the complicated and tragic history of the Belgian Congo.
Despite these weaknesses, Kingsolver's fully realized, three-dimensional characters make The Poisonwood Bible compelling, especially in the first half, when Nathan Price is still at the center of the action. And in her treatment of Africa and the Africans she is at her best, exhibiting the acute perception, moral engagement, and lyrical prose that have made her previous novels so successful. --Alix Wilber

This topic is talking DVD+R DL media with Xbox360 game. There's no xbox360 backup before "few months". Please specify what's not working on Memorex with your burner. What type of DVD disc and what type of data you burnt before few months.

In general all homemade burned discs are bad for your drives. It has something to do with the disc's spinning too close to the laser. I can't remember if its related to the dye that comes on store bought discs or just the way they're manufactured in general.

Me: picking up pizza; You: peeing on my car.
It was about 9:45pm, 15 minutes before Papa John's stops doing carry-out. The parking lot was deserted, but there were still a few restaurants and a grocery store open along that same strip. As I parked and went up to pick up my pizza, a couple of delivery drivers get back to do their thing.
I go inside and it's the usual crew (Am I eating pizza too often if I recognize the people working there?). I tell them what I ordered and the guy runs my credit card and hands me my pizza. Total time inside: approximately 4 minutes. I go outside and head toward my car and notice a large SUV parked next to me. That's odd... Of all the places to park in this empty lot, these people chose right next to my car? Oh well. People are dumb. Then I notice that the driver's side door is open. They're parked facing the opposite direction as me, so their driver's side is adjacent to mine. The passenger tells the driver to hurry up. Hurry up? Oh, yeah... there's the driver. Behind the open door. I didn't notice her before.
La la la... Go around to the passenger side to put the pizza on the passenger seat and walk around the car. At this point, the other car's passenger is getting a bit of urgency in her voice telling the driver to hurry up. "That lady wants to get into her car." I figure if they're not going to be considerate enough to close their door so I can get to my car, I can at least go around and get in. Oh, but no...
There was a point before I had gotten around the front of my car when I still couldn't see the driver. It didn't even occur to me to consider what this person was doing. Was she vandalizing my car? Was she getting her wallet in order to pick up her own pizza?
Was she using my car as a shield so she could pee on the asphalt?
I'd like to say that I had thought to look at her license plate or get a description of her, but unfortunately I have nothing solid to pass on to you, dear readers. I have nothing else to make fun of. What I did see, I find more traumatizing than humorous. I walked around my car just in time to see this woman pull up her gigantic floral-print elastic pants over her pasty, cellulite-ridden derriere. I have no idea what she looks like, even how tall she is or what color hair she had. But I do have this image ingrained in my memory now. That is why I share this with you today.
Now, for the analysis. Why? Why? Why?
Driving along... and you feel an urgent need to urinate. What do you do?
Option 1: Pull over and find a bathroom. There are many public places still open. Try a grocery store, a restaurant, a fast-food joint, or a convenience store. All of which were available within that same stretch of parking lot.
No, can't do that. It would take too much time.
Ok, Option 2: Park far away from the one other car in the parking lot and pull up next to one of the many trees or bushes that line the empty parking lot and use those as a shield.
No. Animals pee on bushes. And they don't provide enough cover. Someone driving by might see me through the bushes. I can't do that.
Option 3: Park next to the one car in the lot, right in front of a carry-out/delivery pizza place, and hope no one will see you while you take 10 minutes to get out, make sure you are sufficiently hidden, and pee.
. That's a good idea.
Lady, you're worse than an animal. At least they urinate somewhere where their urine can be absorbed into the ground. At least that becomes fertilizer to continue nature's cycle.
I hope you peed on yourself and your car when you were trying to hurry away from me. Truly sorry I missed that connection.

In the largest initial public offering in US history, Alibaba raises funds to fuel its global ambitions.
Making a play to attract fashionistas, the Amazon-owned online retailer tries its hand at social experiments in a bid to convince shoppers to abandon brick-and-mortar outlets for the Internet.
Online retailer, which bills itself as the "Amazon of Southeast Asia," hopes to tap a market where online shopping has yet to gain traction.
China's mega e-tailer is roughly two months away from launching its own video-streaming service, modeled on Netflix and HBO, the company said on Sunday.
The Uber for home cleaning, Helpling, lets you hire house cleaners either online or through an app. It's attracted a workforce of students who love the job's flexibility.
The Chinese maker of smartphones and PCs will partner with regional online retailer Lazada to sell its budget A7000 handset through flash sales.
The site, which specializes in arts and crafts, raises $267 million for a valuation of $1.8 billion.
The online arts and crafts marketplace debuts on the Nasdaq stock exchange with shares trading at up to $35 per share.
The online crafts marketplace plans to use the money to develop localized services and attract new members, among other things.
That's what the e-tailer tried to decide over the holidays, when it opened a Las Vegas pop-up store that let shoppers handle items before ordering. As CNET's Kara Tsuboi explains, the experiment could point to Zappos' future plans for opening physical stores.

This was my take on a Victorian Cake. I was hoping the colors along with the design would mix together to give it a more eclectic Victorian feel. Top tier flavor was White Almond with Strawberry Preserves. Bottom Tier was White Almond with a Whipped Chocolate Frosting. Everything was created with Fondant and Royal Icing along with a touch of Pearl Dust.

Covidien plc
) is set to report its second-quarter fiscal 2014 results on
April 25, 2014. In the last reported quarter, the company had
posted a positive earnings surprise of 6.38%. In fact, Covidien
delivered positive surprises in all of its last 4 quarters, with
an average beat of 2.61%. Let's see how things are shaping up for
this announcement.
Factors at Play in the Past Quarter
Despite unfavorable foreign exchange rate, the medical device
tax and incremental investments in emerging markets, Covidien's
first-quarter earnings rose 3.1% year over year to $1.00 per
share and beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 6 cents.
In the last reported quarter, Covidien's adjusted operating
earnings declined 0.8% year over year to $599 million, while
reported operating earnings dropped 10.9% to $531 million.
Unfavorable foreign exchange rate and the medical device tax led
to this decline in both the reported and adjusted operating
However, management remains impressed with the 2.8%
year-over-year increase in the company's revenues to $2,639
million, which exceeded the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 1.42%.
The company expects revenues to grow 2-5% year over year at
constant exchange rate for fiscal 2014.
Earnings Whispers?
Our proven model does not conclusively show that Covidien is
likely to beat earnings this quarter. That is because a stock
needs to have both a positive
Earnings ESP
and a Zacks Rank of #1, 2 or 3 for this to happen. That is not
the case here, as you will see below.
Zacks ESP
: Covidien has a negative Zacks ESP. That is because the
Most Accurate estimate stands at 94 cents while the Zacks
Consensus Estimate is higher at 95 cents. That leads to a
difference of -1.05%.
Zacks Rank
: Covidien's Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) when combined with a negative
ESP makes surprise prediction difficult. We caution against
stocks with Zacks Ranks #4 and 5 (Sell-rated stocks) going into
the earnings announcement, especially when the company is seeing
negative estimate revisions momentum.
Other Stocks to Consider
Here are some other medical companies you may want to consider
as our model shows they have the right combination of elements to
post an earnings beat this quarter:
Align Technology Inc
. (
), earnings ESP of +13.89% and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
Myriad Genetics Inc.
), earnings ESP of +10.87% and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy).
Cardinal Health, Inc.
), earnings ESP of +1.00% and Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Keystone Family Pajama Brunch
When we traveled to Keystone this past Christmas for a family ski trip we had the opportunity to take a little break from all things snow and enjoy a Sunday Family Pajama Brunch at the Bighorn Bistro. What a treat!
Traveling with kids can be pretty exhausting, even though everyone is having fun. Unfortunately I had a pretty bad cold during the trip on top of it so there were times when it took a lot of effort for me to keep everyone happy. Our Sunday brunch gave me a little respite from the chaos of family travel.
The coolest thing was that they had a special kids' room at the restaurant. I was able to sit at a table with my sister, brother, and my brother's girlfriend and have adult conversation while we ate breakfast. I wasn't worried about my kids at all – they had adult supervision in their room and several other kids to keep them company. And did I mention the view from our table?
image via Keystone website
Bighorn Bistro had a special kids brunch buffet to go along with the kids' room, with delicious foods that kids also love – bacon, sausage, chocolate chip pancakes, juices and milk, a variety of fruits, and a little dessert section for kiddos who cleaned their plates. I'm sure I am forgetting something because there was a lot of variety.
It was nice to not have to worry about my kids finding something off an adult menu that they would be willing to eat, but also have options that I felt pretty good about them eating. They loaded up on the fruits with their pancakes and had some tasty sausage along with milk and juice. Perfect fuel for a day out in the snow!
And the kids definitely did not feel like they were forgotten. After they ate, they had crafts for them to do as well as an option to watch Frozen. They had staff on hand to help out with the crafts. They also enjoyed a visit from Santa, Frosty, and Riperoo (the ski school mascot).
The kids had a blast in their special room while the adults enjoyed some quiet time and conversation (without interruption!) to recoup. I loved how the service was personalized so that it met the needs of kids and adults alike.
When it was time to leave our server prepared drinks to go for everyone in our group. Since I was sick he hunted down some peppermint tea for me. It was so nice to feel like someone was taking care of me for a change since we all know that moms don't get "sick days."
The service at Bighorn Bistro was amazing and definitely all of the personal touches made this a very memorable part of our trip. It isn't often that my kids are asking to go to a restaurant but after their experience they were asking when we could go back.

Visiting New Orleans

- To make the pastry, tip the flour and butter into a bowl, then rub together with your fingertips until completely mixed and crumbly. Add 8 tbsp cold water, then bring everything together with your hands until just combined. Roll into a ball and use straight away or chill for up to 2 days. The pastry can also be frozen for up to a month.
- Roll out the pastry on a lightly floured surface to a round about 5cm larger than a 25cm tin. Use your rolling pin to lift it up, then drape over the tart case so there is an overhang of pastry on the sides. Using a small ball of pastry scraps, push the pastry into the corners of the tin. Chill in the fridge or freezer for 20 mins. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6.
- In a small roasting tin, drizzle the tomatoes with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Put the tomatoes in a low shelf of the oven.
- Lightly prick the base of the tart with a fork, line the tart case with a large circle of greaseproof paper or foil, then fill with baking beans. Blind-bake the tart for 20 mins, remove the paper and beans, then continue to cook for 5-10 mins until biscuit brown.
- When you remove the tart case from the oven, take out the tomatoes, too.
- While the tart is cooking, beat the eggs in a large bowl. Gradually add the cream, then stir in the basil and season. When the case is ready, sprinkle half the cheese over the base, scatter over the tomatoes, pour over the cream mix, then finally scatter over the rest of the cheese. Bake for 20-25 mins until set and golden brown. Leave to cool in the case, trim the edges of the pastry, then remove from the tin. Scatter over the remaining basil and serve in slices.

Nxasana inquiry 'progressing'Comment on this story
Pretoria - The establishment of an inquiry into National Prosecuting Authority boss Mxolisi Nxasana's fitness to hold office is at an advanced stage, the presidency said on Friday.
"Progress is also being made with regards to identifying persons who will constitute the inquiry at various levels, and also to conclude the terms of reference," spokesman Mac Maharaj said in a statement.
"An announcement will be made as soon as the processes have been completed."
President Jacob Zuma announced his decision to institute the inquiry on July 5, after reports emerged that Nxasana had apparently not been given a security clearance because of past brushes with the law.
This included being tried for murder about 30 years ago. He was acquitted on the charge based on his version of self-defence.
