Our House jazz was the perfect accent to our holiday party this year. They were ready to perform at the scheduled time and their sets were long and beautifully played. They are very talented musicians and the set lists they designed were a great mix of holiday and standards. Really super musicians. I can't say enough about them. I highly recommend this group.- Shannon L

Beyond professional, Barbara Hubers-Drake, and all members of the quartet, provided our family with the perfect tone to set the mood of our celebration. All of our guests loved their music. Especially the guest of honor. Our House Jazz is the perfect name for these talented musicians who make you feel at home wherever you are - listening to your favorite music. Essential to the success of our event!- Jean L

What a great performance Our House Jazz Quartet provided for my birthday party. Friends who attended have asked for information on the band and commented on how much they enjoyed their music. All details for the evening were worked out during 2 weeks I was out of town, and Barbara picked up on what I was looking for from a short list of favorite artists, songs and instruments. The band then pulled together their evenings performance which was perfect. Our House Jazz Quartet are incredibly talented and I hope to hire them again.- Kathy C

Re: How does suh even compare with mccoy
I think there is something to be said about statistics. Suh has twice as much as everything than McCoy...that should count for a whole hell of a lot. It would be different if the margin was smaller. I've yet to hear how McCoy has out performed Suh in some area other than running .03 sec faster.

Colossus commission by Clayton-HenryWatch
©2006-2016 Clayton-Henry
Here is a commission I did for someone at the Philly con.
Mr. Henry I'm budding comic book fan blown away by the sheer amount of talent and things to read out there. I must say your lines are amazing. I'd love a go at adding some color to this if you'll allow it.
love the way you drew him sometimes I get upset because a lot of artists draw him with the same face as he had 30-40 years ago, even though they've updated all the other mutants to look more 'hip' or whatever.
Anyways, wonderful job, I love it
Anyways, wonderful job, I love it
Damn, your variation of line values is masterful. What did you use? Regular pencil? Mechanical?
Nice, did you do this on plate bristol or did you do it on tracing paper?
crisp pencils!! did you use reference? doesn't matter actually, just wondered how sharp your mental library was()*faves*
that is awesome! i can definately see some adam hughes in ur work
Excellent pencils, It's a great pose for colossus, you don't really see him, with this kind of weight, he's usually made to seem more statuesque...
great facial expression
great colossus... i like how he's thick, but not overly defined for muscles
just the way he should be
just the way he should be
That's hot. Did that sound a lot like Paris Hilton? Anyway, nice job, man. Your stuff is awesome.
DAMN ! That is the best pic of him ive ever seen! You are awesome!!
That is pretty badass! It's the best Colossus I've seen in awhile.
You killed this one!
Great job!
Great job!
Hey Clayton when are we gonna hear about the next big project you're gonna do for the house of ideas? unless something was annouced this weekend and I missed (which is possible), great piece by the way I love your work
Awesome as always
those are some damn tight pencils man

in response to FKCBump. Will this be a possibility after the SDK release? I was told by our IT guys that our use of this software was the reason that I can't sync our corporate email to my iPhone. (was told this when I asked about enabling iMap on our Exchange server)
brucebj Jan 23, 2008 10:42 AM
in response to FKCGood does not support any other mobile operating systems other than Windows and Palm at present and I was told by them that there is no plans to design a version to support the iPhone in the works. Personally... I believe that since Motorolla acquired GoodLink they most likely never will, but who knows?

The Asus PadFone is back, this time in the form of the Infinity, a smartphone/tablet dual device that consists of a 5-inch Full HD Android handset that slides into a 10.1-inch tablet screen and docking station, dubbed the PadFone Station.
The handset's display uses Super IPS technology and has 1920 x 1080-pixel resolution. Ensconced below are a 1.7 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 quad-core processor (the same as found in the Samsung Galaxy S4 and HTC One), 2 GB of RAM and 32 GB of non-expandable storage. There's a 13-Megapixel backlit camera on the back that films in Full HD at 30 frames per second, plus a 2-Megapixel camera on the front. The operating system is Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, to which Asus added a few of its own apps and services.
The PadFone Infinity costs around £700 SIM-free, although there's also a smartphone-only version for around £500.

The operating system is Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, to which Asus added a few of its own apps and services.
The PadFone Infinity costs around £700 SIM-free, although there's also a smartphone-only version for around £500.
The smartphone reprises some aspects of the PadFone 2's design, all the while asserting itself as its own entity. Masculine, aluminium-clad and robust, it's a fairly large phone that doesn't quite fit as well in the hands as the Galaxy S4 or HTC One do. This is because it's relatively wide and thick without any particular ergonomic compensation on the back shell. But we've seen worse, and the physical buttons along the edges are easy to reach, whether you're a righty or a lefty.
The PadFone Station tablet/dock is thinner and lighter than the first PadFone's. Where the original PadFone had a bulky, protuberant compartment that opened up to house the smartphone, this one just has a slim open slot where the phone slides in vertically. The connection is maintained via the microUSB port on the bottom edge of the phone.
The connection is secure, so you can turn the tablet any which way without worrying about the smartphone falling out. And it isn't too heavy with the handset inserted, coming in at just under 700 grams, which is just about average for a 10.1-inch Android tablet.
The PadFone Station is well manufactured with a solid build and a slightly soft-touch plastic surface instead of the aluminium that adorns the phone, making it easily grippable. We would have liked to have seen a few ports on it, such as a mini-HDMI out or an SD card slot... Then again, it makes sense given that the smartphone is the primary device.
With IPS panels for both the smartphone and tablet, Asus clearly decided to make the screens one of the selling points. Both have excellent viewing angles and contrast (1,091:1 for the smartphone and 1,095:1 for the tablet), but the brightness is a little low in our book: 234 cd/m² for the phone and 264 cd/m² for the dock. Both have deep enough black to bring out the rest of the image, but the low brightness makes the screens less legible outdoors.
Asus did a great job with the colours, as both the phone and tablet have the same respectable colour fidelity with a Delta E of 4.4 (Delta E measures how true the colour tones are, where the closer to zero, the more faithful the tone). Even better, the colour temperature is about as close to perfect as you can get, at 6,503 K. This is all great stuff. The 200 ms touch response delay, however, is a far cry from the latest iPad (75 ms) and Galaxy S4 (110 ms).
Following this year's norm in high-end gadgetry, Asus gave the smartphone Full HD resolution. With high pixel density of 440 dots per inch, that makes small text easy to read in both portrait and landscape mode. Same goes for the PadFone Station, which has just-over-Full-HD resolution of 1920 x 1200, for a pixel density of 224 dpi.
As already seen on the GS4 and HTC One, the Snapdragon 600 SoC and 2 GB of RAM are a good fit for Android. But the configuration is more interesting to study in this case, as it's practically pure Android, whereas Samsung and HTC both add their own user interfaces on top, respectively TouchWiz and Sense 5. Here there's no extra GUI or software overlay obscuring the operating system—it's just Jelly Bean and a few added wallpapers and apps, such as the excellent SuperNote, Asus Studio photo editor and Asus Story for scrapbooking. In theory, all of the cards are lined up for a smooth-running Droid experience.
The OS behaves just as it should and navigating between apps, the home screens and the launcher runs astonishingly smoothly. After inserting the smartphone into the dock, you just have to wait half a second and the image automatically shows up in 16:10 on the tablet screen.
The tablet is just a tiny bit slower than the smartphone, but not enough to get in your way. That said, we were disappointed to see that in this third generation of the PadFone concept there's still a lack of continuity in places. For instance, every time you connect or disconnect the two devices, you have to relaunch the web browser—which gets annoying—whereas other apps, such as SuperNotes, carry over from one to the other.
In tablet mode, at all times you can open mini-apps alongside your other tasks. This highly practical capability is winning over more and more brands, such as Samsung and Sony. It allows you to be using an app and then also open a web browser, calculator, calendar, e-mail, etc. A long press on the home button while in any app opens the aesthetically pleasing customisable app launcher, where you can select a programme and simultaneously use the web browser, photo viewer, photo editor, games, alarm clock and so on.
As for the Snapdragon 600 processor's raw performance power, all the major benchmarks show it to be just about on par with the version found in the HTC One: both the One and Infinity's CPUs just underperform the Galaxy S4.
Web browsing on the PadFone Infinity is just as good as on competing high-end devices. Pages load quickly when the conditions are right and the screen is easy on the eyes both in tablet mode (1920 x 1200 resolution helps) and smartphone mode (Full HD and a 5-inch diagonal also helps). The zoom function is fast and precise, helping make this a great online experience!
The PadFone Infinity plays SD, HD and Full HD movies without a hitch. But to read any and every file format, you're better off downloading a third party player from Play Store, such as MX Player or Mobo Player.
Between the highly capable processor and the Adreno 320 GPU (GL Benchmark: 32 fps), a combination that has already proved its stuff on the GS4 and HTC One, gaming ain't no thing on the PadFone Infinity. Any game you find in the Play Store, even the most processor-intensive, will run like a Swiss watch. And between the smartphone and tablet we saw no differences in the picture quality or gameplay fluidity.
The smartphone has a 2,400 mAh battery, which may sound extravagant, but not when you have a Snapdragon 600 and Full HD screen to feed. In our raw battery test the PadFone Infinity lasted 8 hours 53 minutes. That's when purposely stressing the Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, audio output, GPS and so on. With more standard usage, the PadFone Infinity will last your average workday before a recharge is in order.
The tablet has a 5,000 mAh battery. You get to choose whether you want it to maintain the smartphone's power, charge the smartphone (this method charges more slowly than with the smartphone plugged into the wall) or manage the power usage between the two devices. As a tablet with the smartphone inserted, the PadFone Infinity can last two days or more. Of course, charging it this way takes a long time. The smartphone alone takes about two hours to charge.
The PadFone Infinity takes great pictures as a smartphone. Black comes out a tiny bit flooded, but there's a respectable amount of detail in the shots, contours look nice and precise, and you can tell there isn't an inordinate amount of digital enhancement.
The PadFone Infinity's camera doesn't perform quite as well in low lighting as the Galaxy S4 or HTC One's—you can see a subtle loss in detail and colour—but it's much better than the Sony Xperia Z, which also has a 13-Megapixel sensor. The flash is just right and doesn't overexpose subjects.
The camera app is extensive with a plethora of modes and scenes capable of fulfilling any mobile picture-taker's deepest desires. It may not live up to the GS4's photo app, but it's close.
The smartphone has a 13-Megapixel camera (f/2), but in tablet form the sensor gets stripped down to 5.5 Megapixels. The tablet doesn't take the most amazing photos out there, but they're entirely usable, as long as you can resign to using the lower resolution (there's less detail along the edges of the frame than in the centre), and the somewhat grainier image.

Refrigerator does an excelent job keeping foods cold (below 40 degrees) and runs quietly. I like the hinged door on the bottom freezer rather than a slide-out unit. The refrigerator door is heavy and will open 180 degrees unless held onto. As a result, I have to hold the door with one hand while reaching inside with the other hand. The door should have a stop at 90 degrees.

Purchased this back in June. It seems well made but I did like my Amana that I had before. This one has a bottom freezer door that swings open and my other one pulled open with a sliding shelf so it was easier to get ice out. This refrigerator seems to run more but that could be just me listening for different sounds. The water for the ice maker is or seems louder than the other refrigerator we had. I miss the other drawer that I had on my old one but I am getting use to this set up and adjusting the shelves more to my liking. I prefer refigerators with bottom freezers since I have a bad back and seldom go in the freezer. I like my regualar foods arm reach. I have to buy a smaller refrigerator because of space and glad they still make this size. I am not that wild about the stainless but I couldn't get beige or biscuit in this model and I didn't want white or black. It is a refrigerator and keeps stuff cold so that is all that matters to me. I would recommend if someone has a small space and doesn't need a large refrigerator. It is perfect size for the two of us.

quiet running
By lauramm
from Bellingham, WA, United States
I bought my new refrigerator during a long hot spell and was very happy that it chilled down rapidly and preserved the food I moved into it from my non-functioning refrigerator. The operation is quiet with only a phase at intervals that sounds like mice tap dancing and is not intrusive. I am very pleased with my purchase and look forward to years of reliable service; after all it is a Maytag!

Maytag Bottom Freezer
By Frozen North
from Canada
I like the Refrigerator part, and having a bottom drawer freezer is handy, but the freezer drawer is sticky to open, and the stuff on the rack is hidden from view, making it more difficult to find items. The Refrigerator is slightly more noisy than our old one, but much more energy efficient.
Great Performance
By Mike2442
from Wisconsin, United States
I bought this 6 months ago and am happy with the performance of the refrigerator. There is ample space in the unit. The re-configurable shelving units and drawers make it easy to customize the inside. The movable storage on the door is easy to use for small items as well as large items up to a gallon of milk. The ice maker in the freezer works well and produces a large amount of ice that serves well for entertaining. Overall, great product, and I am hoping to see it last for a long time.
Happy with it.

In the Spanish language, Miha is a term of endearment that means "my daughter." In the language of contemporary fashion, Miha means ultra-feminine silhouettes, architectural shapes, custom fabrics, and artful draping. Founded in 2011 in New York City, Miha is the brainchild of Aimee Kellner — an industry vet whose diverse background and experiences include working for Alice + Olivia, Elizabeth & James, and Katayone Adeli. The brand, expressly trend-driven instead of "trendy", is an ideal closet-full of chic staples and party-perfect looks for the season. For the nine-to-five, choose from the elegant blouses and blazers. And for after hours, dare to bare in sultry frocks made of velvet, lace, and luxe jacquard.

The Hollywood Reporter completely misidentified the cast "Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta" confusing them with the ladies from "Love & Hip Hop: New York."
Did Chrissy Lampkin make her way down to Atlanta? Has Olivia Longott made a comeback to VH1? Nope it's just a case of mistaken identity.
By now most anyone tracking reality TV would be able to correctly pick out the cast of "LHHATL"–especially since the show returned for season 3 on Monday–but not THR! While reporting on VH1's social media component for "LHHATL," writer Natalie Jarvey illustrated her story with the cast picture from the New York edition of "Love & Hip Hop."
Not only did The Hollywood Reporter get the cast wrong, they got the season wrong! The media outlet put up a picture of the season 2 cast from "LHHNY" that featured Emily B., Kimbella, Yandy Smith and Somaya Reece alongside Chrissy and Olivia. Take a look!
The Hollywood Reporter has yet to comment on the mix-up or replaced the picture with an image of the correct cast!

Given the popularity of Baroque music in general, and on the airwaves especially, it is surprising how ill-served it is on our local concert stages. In Orange County, none of the professional orchestras (touring or otherwise), chamber ensembles or presenters bother with it much at all.
The Baroque Music Festival, Corona del Mar, featuring five concerts in eight days every June, modestly tries to make up for the lack. This year's festival, the 30th annual, typically digs deep into the period, with performances of works both known and obscure. Friday night's concert, at the Sherman Library and Gardens, attracted a sold-out (and enthusiastic) audience for music by Bach, Handel, Stravinsky, Corelli, Viviani and Telemann.
The qualities that make Baroque music so easy and soothing to listen to on the car radio or while doing housework can make it a challenge to listen to in concert. Its harmonies do not (invariably) challenge the modern ear; the regularities of its rhythms can often lull. In many ways, Baroque music seems to tempt the listener into a state of inattention. If you drift off and miss something in a piece of Baroque music, well, it's still pretty much doing the same thing when you get back to it. Or so it can appear.
Most of Friday's agenda repaid close attention. The Central Patio Room, with its high, wood-beamed ceilings, brick floor and French doors, was a pleasant, acoustically friendly place to listen to it, except for the hard chairs. Five musicians – a flutist, violinist, cellist, trumpeter and harpsichordist – playing on modern and period instruments, gave committed performances.
Gregor Piatigorsky's unpublished arrangement of Stravinsky's "Suite Italienne," discovered in a drawer of the late cellist's by festival director Burton Karson, was a highlight. The music, of course, is based on Stravinsky's "Pulcinella," a seminal work of neoclassicism using themes by Pergolesi and other Baroque composers. Piatigorsky's sparkling arrangement was made for himself and Jascha Heifetz to play. Its demands are entertainingly virtuosic.
Timothy Landauer, principal cellist of the Pacific Symphony, and violinist Elizabeth Blumenstock, a period-instrument specialist, gave it a good ride on modern instruments. Still, Blumenstock's delicate, period-inflected bowings and phrasings didn't always jibe with Landauer's sturdy way, and she floated in and out of balance with him.
Harpsichordist Gabriel Arregui took firm control of Bach's Ouverture in D (from the Fourth Partita), stamping out its phrases authoritatively, underlining the ebb and flow of Bach's clotted-then-streaming rhythms.
Performing on a natural trumpet (without valves), John Thiessen provided graceful, precise readings of Giovanni Viviani's Sonata Seconda in C (for trumpet and harpsichord) and Corelli's Sonata in D (for trumpet and strings, here performed with a flute in the ensemble). These are modest pieces for the most part, simple in design, but Thiessen's playing proved a joy in itself.
Flutist David Shostac, long a stalwart of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, joined Arriegu for Bach's cerebral Sonata in B minor, BWV 1030, an intricate clockwork piece of contrapuntal designs, dispatched in long-breathed, subtly inflected phrases.
To begin and end the program, Shostac, Blumenstock, Landauer and Arriegui offered appropriately gamboling, melancholy and racing accounts of Handel's Sinfonia in B-flat and Telemann's Trio Sonata in A ("Corellisantes" No. 2), a slight mismatch in the performers' stylistic approaches and volume levels notwithstanding.
Get your Baroque fix while you can. The festival winds up Sunday afternoon with Karson conducting works for chorus and orchestra by Bach, Alessandro Scarlatti, Brahms and Handel at Newport Harbor Lutheran Church.

LatinaLista -- When it comes to heart disease, Latinos are in a good position, not great, but good. In general, Latinos are 10 percent less likely to have coronary heart disease than non-Hispanic white adults and less likely to have high blood pressure, a contributing factor to heart disease, than non-Hispanic blacks.
Yet, heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women -- 420,000 women die each year in the U.S. of cardiovascular disease. While it's long been known how men experience heart attacks, the same can't be said for women. It's only been over the last several years that women have received the much needed information on how heart disease is different for women and what can be done to prevent it -- yes, prevent it!
Unlike cancer, heart disease can be prevented. The only trouble is a lot of women don't know how to do that or even recognize the symptoms if they should have heart disease.
For that reason, television host, Joy Behar and her daughter, have released the bilingual e-book Straight Talk: A Woman's Guide to Heart Health.
The impetus for the book is the personal experience the Behar family has with heart disease. Joy and her daughter wanted to share what they practice in their own family -- being advocates for one another's heart health -- with others.
"Because heart disease runs in our family, my mother and I have always looked out for each other's health,'' said Eve Behar. "This new guide can help women become empowered to prevent heart disease and take better care of themselves and their loved ones by talking to each other and starting conversations with their doctors."
In addition to the facts about heart disease and how to recognize the symptoms, the e-book also shares the stories of women who have suffered from heart disease and didn't even know they had it.
Sixty-four percent of women who died suddenly of heart disease had no previous symptoms; making early detection and correction of factors like high cholesterol, hypertension and diabetes critical.
The e-book is free to download on the I am ProHeart Facebook page or the I am ProHeart web site, which is sponsored by campaign partner Bayer aspirin.

02 Aug 2012
The residential property market in Grahamstown – often referred to as the 'Festival Capital' due to its hosting a number of cultural and other events, including the recent National Arts Festival – is experiencing increased activity.
This is according to Daphne Timm, area principal for Pam Golding Properties (PGP), who says over the past financial year they have sold homes to a total sales value of R107 million, which reflected an increase in turnover of just over 57 percent.
She says sales during this period were mostly two to four bedroom family homes priced mainly between R450 000 and R1.75 million. During this period, while the top end of the market experienced little movement above the R3 million mark, PGP concluded all seven residential sales in the price band from R3 to R8.2 million – mostly around the R4 million mark, says Timm.
For the first quarter of 2012 they have concluded sales to the total value of R21 million, comprising an average selling price of R1.1 million, she explains.
"Considering that this period includes the traditionally quieter month of January as well as numerous public holidays in April, this reflects positive activity in the marketplace, coupled with our ongoing success in capturing increased market share."
She says since April they have seen a further uptick in general interest in the marketplace.Timm says approximately 40 percent of PGP's sales in Grahamstown are to parents with children at private schools, who either relocate - while a partner commutes on business to major centres such as Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban, or the couples use the property on weekends.
The balance are locals purchasing for a variety of reasons such as new young couples starting out, those upsizing as the family grows, or downsizing as adult children have left the family home.
Timm says in terms of their buyers they are seeing that finance has become somewhat more accessible, although first-time buyers are finding they need to spend a little more to acquire the homes they desire.
Because of the outstanding educational facilities in Grahamstown, including Rhodes University, as well as the appealing lifestyle, they attract home buyers from around the country, including those purchasing student accommodation or investment property.
With the amount of two bedroom apartments being built, you still find out of town investors buying, however, this increased supply of student accommodation has impacted on rental income, she explains.
However, while there is ample accommodation for students in Grahamstown, there are not many homes available for families and they could definitely do with a development such as an attractive set of townhouses being built for families as two and three bedroom, lock-up-and-go units in the price range from R650 000 to R1.1 million, she says.
"We believe this kind of complex living has high appeal and although developers have been looking at land, there are no real indications of such developments being planned," says Timm.
She says the market still offers sound opportunities to get into the market, and acquire an investment property with good rental income. For example, you can acquire a two bedroom apartment for R565 000 and achieve rental income of R4 500 per month, she says.
There are some real gems currently on the market for those wanting a larger home for the family, such as a three bedroom family home priced at R1.65 million, and there is a really good buy situated right on the doorstep of a private school, a four bedroom home priced at R2.1 million, she says.
Grahamstown is fortunate in that they tend to experience a sustained demand for homes, so homes in good condition continue to increase in value, says Timm.

Does This 1901 Globe Story Prove There Is a Time Capsule in the Old State House's Lion Statue?
The gold lion and silver unicorn statues adorning the top of Boston's Old State House are coming down for repairs, and the time capsule hidden inside the lion is coming down with it. Well, if there really is a time capsule there.
Boston Magazine first reported the possibility of the time capsule inside the golden lion after a conversation with Bostonian Society executive director Brian LeMay, who said that the capsule was a "longtime rumor." The statues will be taken down sometime after September 8 for basic maintenance, and LeMay said he was looking forward to peering inside the lion to explore the possibility of the time capsule's existence.
But historians at the Freedom Trail hadn't heard of that longtime rumor. Several staffers there said LeMay was likely confusing the lion's time capsule with the time capsule in the grasshopper weather vane atop Faneuil Hall. That capsule, full of letters, coins, and documents, was originally placed in the grasshopper in 1761 and has been updated during periodic refurbishments.
Sam Jones, Freedom Trail Foundation's creative director, likened LeMay's hypothesis to the children's game of telephone. Because of the many "shiny animals above the Freedom Trail," rumors like this periodically come up, he said.
"But as far as anything being in the lion and unicorn, I have absolutely no knowledge of that," Jones said.
When told of the Freedom Trail's doubters, LeMay pointed to this February 24, 1901 article in The Boston Globe: "Lion and Unicorn: Copper Box to be Placed in Head of the King of Beasts," the headline reads.
Here's the relevant second paragraph:
"The work of the coppersmith is completed, and one of the last things he did was to seal a copper box, which is placed in the head of the lion, and which contains contributions from state and city officials, the Boston daily newspapers, the name of the maker of the lion and unicorn, and others, which will prove interesting when the box is opened many years hence.
Those newspapers, photos of important people of the day, and letters certainly will prove interesting to historians, if indeed their existence proves true. To bolster his argument, LeMay added that a letter from the ancestor of a contractor hired to work on the lion and unicorn made some of the same descriptions of the time capsule. Still, the relative lack of sources on the subject means that even LeMay isn't totally convinced of the time capsule's existence.
"I think it's pretty likely," he said, although he admitted that "the evidence is somewhat ambiguous."
Freedom Trail Foundation's executive director Suzanne Taylor said that the tour company was previously unaware of the time capsule, but was hopeful the story would prove true.
"The potential of finding a time capsule during the Old State House's upcoming preservation project is exciting," she wrote in an email to Boston.com. "Visiting historic sites along the Freedom Trail brings history to life and finding items in time capsules at these treasured sites provides us with an extra glimpse of our great city's past."
The lion and unicorn statues were originally built atop the Old State House in 1713, but were torn down and burnt in a symbolic bonfire in 1776. Replica statues made of wood were then placed back on the building's east façade in 1882. After that wood rotted through by the beginning of the 20th century, they were refurbished again in shinier, sturdier form.
Update: Twitter's Angie in Boston provides the movie poster for this story.

6 Things My Son Can Learn From My Career in Social MediaBeth Anne Ballance
I discovered blogging over 10 years ago during my freshman year of college. Blogging wasn't really a "thing" though – it was just a faster way to journal thanks to typing. I didn't even give it a second thought that it was public. Facebook wasn't even a sparkle in Zuckerberg's eye yet. It's odd to me that now I'm in a career that didn't even exist when I started college and by the time my son graduates, social media may be a major!
But now my bread is buttered by tweets and content creation and I love every moment of it. In turn, I've learned quite a bit over the past few years about being a true friend and what people really want from a business, all on social media.
Here are the things my son can learn from my career in social media:
Perspective is crucial. 1 of 6
Sometimes I remind myself (and my coworkers) that while we take our jobs seriously and our words have the power to inspire or hurt others, we are not performing brain surgery. Nobody is going to die on the table if a word is misspelled or a Tweet is missed. Focus on what really matters.
Son, it doesn't matter that everyone else went to PreK before you. You'll get there soon enough.
People just want to be heard and acknowledged. 2 of 6
In my career, I've found that the majority of customer complaints have very little to do with wanting a problem solved and mostly to do with "Hey, I hear you and your concern is valid." Social media gives easy access to customer service and other people, bringing the "big guy" down to an accessible level. People simply want to know that they are heard and that they matter in the grand scheme of things.
So son, be kind and listen and be empathetic. It will get you so far in life, career, and relationships.
Balance is key to everything. 3 of 6
Social media is a job that never sleeps. I could sit at my computer all day, every day, and still have things to do and monitor and replies to send. I could edit content repeatedly but then I'd miss the life that builds social media. It's just as important to me to get out, see inspiration, spend time with family and friends as it is to log client hours.
So son, put down the cell phone and turn off the television and go explore the backyard.
Everyone has a story. 4 of 6
It is easy to judge someone but the more I am in social and the more I read the stories of others, the less judgmental I am. Everyone has a story and a life they are living to the best of their ability.
It's important to remember when someone hurts you or bothers you that they're just trying to live their life. So live your life, listen to their story, and help them as best as you can.
Relationships matter the most. 5 of 6
The purpose of social is to connect people to the things that matter most - people, brands, purposes.
Remember that real relationships can form online, but also remember that the best relationships are the ones right in front of you.
It's okay to laugh. 6 of 6
It's okay to be self-deprecating, to be silly and take the events of life and make them light-hearted. The world is so serious and social media can be a beautiful distraction and entertainment from the harsh realities that many of us face.
Just be sure to always know your audience, listen to their story, and act with an empathetic heart.

Best Tea Service (2001)
Oak & Berries Tea Room at the Historic Holiday Chalet Bed & Breakfast
If it's not quite to grandmother's house you go, the Oak & Berries Tea Room is the next best thing. Better, in fact, if your relatives didn't live in the elegant, high-Victorian style of the lovely Holiday Chalet, a B&B as well as the best place in town for tea. Roxanne Mays, former manager of afternoon teas at the Brown Palace, is in charge here, and she sets out a lovely spread from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., Thursday through Sunday. The tea runs $17 a head and includes not only scones (want seconds? just ask) and savory tea sandwiches and pastries, but also your choice of two homemade soups. And then, of course, there's the tea -- which often includes a few interesting, international selections that Mays has discovered. Take your tea at one of the tables in the dining room, with its mismatched antique china, in a private room or, when the weather is nice, in the Holiday Chalet's beautiful garden, where Mays also offers tea parties for children.

The youngest among Marvel's greatest heroes have never had the most normal childhoods. But in SIEGE: SECRET WARRIORS #1 and SIEGE: YOUNG AVENGERS #1-on sale April 14 and 28, respectively-the next generation of heroes will experience something unlike anything they've seen as they follow Captain America straight into the heart of Norman Osborn's assault on Asgard.
Jonathan Hickman, who writes the Secret Warriors one-shot with art by Alessandro Vitti, compares what the group faces in Siege as opposed to their regular battles:
"[It's] bigger. Gods flying around getting pulled apart by super men while other gods get stomped on by super villains; it's like spring break in Jaurez, Mexico."
When Steve Rogers put out the call to old allies for his counterstrike against Osborn, he might not have planned on getting the Warriors' help.
|SIEGE: SECRET WARRIORS #1 cover by Marko Djurdjevic
Siege also marks the first time Nick Fury and Steve Rogers have come together again since the latter's rebirth, something that means a lot to Fury.
"All the Howling Commandos are essentially men out of time, soldiers from the greatest generation in the here and now," Hickman points out. "They are the guys that we look up to from the last century. They are the ideal, and there's only one guy they look up to. So, yeah, it's a big deal to Fury that Cap's back. The biggest."
Hickman also promises that "SECRET WARRIORS #17-19 [will deal with] pretty much nothing but [Cap's return]."
One of the major casualties of Siege so far, the death of Ares, will have particular resonance for the Warriors, since they count the god's son, Phobos, among their members.
"[SIEGE: SECRET WARRIORS] is mainly a story about a kid whose dad just died, and that kid deciding to send a message," Hickman says. "The God of Fear on a rip. Watch out."
|SIEGE: YOUNG AVENGERS #1 black and white preview art by Mahmud Asrar
"Wiccan was the easiest decision since his initial codename was Asgardian and he chose to emulate Thor, even though his powers didn't necessarily require it," McKeever explains. "So there's a bit of back story introduced that explains the origin of Asgardian.
"As for Patriot, I thought it would be neat to see how he acts in a situation where someone he cares about is in grave danger and the clock is ticking."
McKeever reveals that his one-shot takes place "near the end of SIEGE #3," though he remained mum on the specifics.
"I can tell you that the point of this story is to show how these teenage heroes handle a crisis situation," elaborates the writer. "Sure, they've been through the Secret Invasion and the Civil War and whatnot, but this is different. Again, can't say much, but folks will see what I'm talking about soon.
"Diving into this story-which had me very excited from the get-go as I loved [Allan] Heinberg and [Jim] Cheung's 12-issue [YOUNG AVENGERS]
|SIEGE: YOUNG AVENGERS #1 black and white preview art by Mahmud Asrar
When the team received Captain America's call to arms, they experienced a number of emotions as they officially stepped into the big leagues.
"It's obviously very flattering but also intimidating," notes McKeever. "These kids are determined and tough and rather fearless, but at the end of the day they're still kids. There's a real weight to this mission that we'll see play out in this story."

Sunday November 1st, 2015
Provided by:
The Muskoka Association of Fire Chiefs
Not Monitored - The Fire Danger Rating is only monitored from April 1st to Oct 31st.
Consult with your local Fire Department for outdoor burning regulations in your municipality.
This is the Forest Fire Danger Rating for Restricted Fire Zone RFZ 27 (District of Muskoka). The Muskoka Fire Season runs April 1st to October 31st each year. The rating is verified daily and updated whenever the rating changes.
For complete information on burning in your municipality please check with your local municipal office:
Bracebridge 705-645-5264
Huntsville 705-789-5201
The Muskoka Fire Danger Rating is determined using the Fire Weather Index (FWI), an internationally used method for determining the risk of fires in open air. It uses factors such as the relative humidity, temperature, previous 24-hour rain amount, wind directions and wind speed in combination with the forest fuel type and loads to determine the risk of the forest to certain fire types. From this calculation the Forest Fire Danger Rating is made in consultation with the Fire Chiefs of the six area municipalities and the Ministry of Natural Resources.

Harvard Common Press, 1997 - Family & Relationships - 184 pages
Pregnant women making plans for baby, mothers on maternity leave, or moms already back at work will discover in this book why many working women find breastfeeding the easiest way to feed their babies. Pryor covers everything a working mother needs to know about: the basics of breastfeeding, including nursing positions, milk supply, and feeding schedules; choosing and using a breast pump; ways to store and transport milk safely; how to get support from co-workers and child-care helpers; how to go on a business trip without having to wean; and much more.

A christmas card for our schools christmas sale. I would have liked to do something emotional and peaceful but it seems all workable ideas have left my head. So, merry material christmas for everyone already.
Daily DeviationGiven 2012-12-18
gifted kid by ~pettryb ( Suggested by flouvl and Featured by STelari )
If I'd gotten this as a card, I'd have framed it straight away and put it in my cozy living room corner - lovely!
I really like your title that gel with your visual. He looks sad and lonely in flood of gifts. Splendid execution and detailing!
pettrybros is always my source of inspiration, I have my own Deviantart, pettrybros art would be all the DDs!!! <3
but he seems lonely....
Love your style!
So charming
SHOOOT I WISH I WAS HIM btw BEAUTIFUL art
;v; i got no idea how i am using this, but after working as a teacher/student aide for a while, and hearing the term "gifted," i think this is a cute and original way to express your title. this also fits the theme for Christmas, in my personal opinion. beautiful job, and congratulations for your daily deviation. > w <)y
Haha, thank you so much! I wasn't sure if the "joke" in title would come out in english but it seems to be understandable.
;w; you're welcome, and it seems so. i say mission accomplished, even if it was a very random and unintentional one. XD
Love this! it isn't bright with christmas lights but the different patterns on all those gifts really make everything so interesting.
I think your a gifted kid
So much detail! Congrats
Congrats for the DD!!
Interesting style, great prospective, color nice... Love the concept...
I really like ur drawing style and it looks adorable ^^
It's really lovely!
I love the style that you used on this! It's one that is unique and that you don't see too often. The attention to detail on the presents is remarkable as well, and the cute little cat could not have been placed at a more perfect spot! I'm sorry that you couldn't think of any other ideas for Christmas Card, but what you came up with is amazing and I wouldn't change a thing! You have talent! Keep up the amazing work and congrats on the DD! You most definitely deserve it!
Thank you so much! I was going to paint something more emotional this christmas, but it seems I'm running out of time. Well, fortunately there's always the next year.
cats and gifts.. it's a heaven
Congrats for the DD, dear!!

White House spokesmen Robert Gibbs and Dan Pfeiffer started out the week of the bipartisan health care summit by accusing Republicans, once again, of having no plan:
The President believes strongly that Thursday's bipartisan meeting on health insurance reform will be most productive if both sides come to the table with a unified plan to start discussion – and if the public has the opportunity to inspect those proposals up close before the meeting happens.
That's why yesterday the White House posted online the President's proposal for bridging the differences between the Senate- and House-passed health insurance reform bills...
As we said today, we'll be happy to post the Republican plan on our website once they indicate to us which one we should post. We hope they won't pass up this opportunity to make their case to the American people.
Politico was first to the punch, noting that the White House's own website already links to the allegedly non-existent GOP plan, online:
Turns out the House Republicans' plan has been online since October and already has its own link on the White House website. The White House encourages readers to "read more about House and Senate ideas from both parties on their websites." The link sends readers to a House GOP website that includes a one-page summary sheet and the legislative text of their proposals.
I suppose the White House would argue that it is searching for a more specific idea of what Republicans will put forward, but then they'd have to contend with this riddle:
What does the "Party of No's" plan have that the president's doesn't? A CBO score.
This morning the Obama Administration released a description of its health care proposal, and CBO has already received several requests to provide a cost estimate for that proposal...
Moreover, preparing a cost estimate requires very detailed specifications of numerous provisions, and the materials that were released this morning do not provide sufficient detail on all of the provisions. Therefore, CBO cannot provide a cost estimate for the proposal without additional detail.

By Susan Langenhennig
Belle Chasse High School students chatted quietly as they waited for the presentation to begin in crowded Room 23.
Taped to the wall was a red felt Nazi flag and leaning against the chalk board was a black-and-white photograph of a baby-faced young man dressed in a brown, World War II-era Army uniform.
The boy in the portrait, Belle Chasse resident Charles Weiss, was just 16 years old, younger than many of the students seated in the desks that day. Weiss had lied about his age to join the Army in its fight against the Nazis in Europe.
Some 50 years later, Weiss, whose baby face is now creased with wrinkles and whose brown hair has turned silver gray, stood before the class wearing the red cap of his veterans organization. In a quiet voice he spoke about the young man he had been when he first joined the war.
"We were fighting in Italy about six months before D-Day, and the Germans had the high ground and a lot more technology than we did," he said, as the class grew silent . Lying on a table in front of Weiss was a tray of weapons he had kept as souvenirs, including a German rifle and handgun.
In all, Weiss, who served with the Washington Artillery from New Orleans, was in combat for 462 days and participated in six major campaigns in Europe.
Sharing the classroom with Weiss was Roland Barrios of Gretna, who fought in the Pacific with the Marine Corps during World War II. He was one of the lucky ones, Barrios said, as most units fighting against the Japanese suffered 95 percent casualties.
"If they hadn't dropped the bomb, we wouldn't be here talking to you today," he said. "It was a terrible thing to kill all those civilians, but that's what war is about. And it was the only way."
Barrios held up a picture of another young man, his buddy, who had died during the war. The two, both about 19, had made a pact to take care of each other's families if only one survived the war. Barrios has never gone back on his word.
Barrios and Weiss were just two of a dozen or so veterans who came to Belle Chasse High School Friday to give students first-hand accounts of fighting. The veterans were a variety of ages, representing all U.S. conflicts from World War II to Desert Storm.
Just down the hall in Room 17, Army Sgt. Lonzell Silas Jr. recalled the feeling of sand on his skin, in his eyes and under his clothes as he was stationed in the desert during the Gulf War.
"I was in the desert for six months, living among the elements," said Silas, who was responsible for food service during the war. "Before 9 a.m., it's 90 degrees outside. By night time, it's about 40 degrees. And there are a lot of sand storms, camels and flies for days."
Silas' experiences were drastically different from the war Karl Hunter remembers as a medic in Vietnam. He was trained to work in field hospitals and on the front lines taking care of the wounded.
"My job was to do the best I could do to help someone who was hurt," said Hunter, who passed around his dog tags and some yellowed photographs he had taken while in Vietnam.
"What I want to tell you is that not everyone is a good veteran and not every soldier was a good soldier. But besides all the negative, the United States is still the greatest country, so take advantage of what you have," he said. "When you go to a third-world country, like Vietnam, you really see what everyone here takes for granted."
Before the veterans began the presentations in the classrooms, retired Navy Capt. Giles Norrington of Algiers spoke in the school auditorium about his experiences as a prisoner of war in Vietnam.
"Some people will minimize their experiences as POWs by saying they were only there a few weeks," said Norrington, who was a POW for five years. "Well, one day is enough to know everything there is to know about it, and I'll tell you there's nothing good to know about it."
To kick off the veterans day program, Cmdr. Bob White, the executive officer of the Naval Air Station/Joint Reserve Base in Belle Chasse, spoke briefly about the variety of military groups serving at the Belle Chasse base. Coincidentally during his speech, the sounds of jets roaring overhead filled the auditorium.
"Do you hear that?" White asked the students. "That's the sound of freedom."

text: The SOUTH PARK boys learn about the politics of war and the consequences of homework in the 100th episode, "I'm A Little Bit Country," which premiered at 10:00 pm April 9, 2003 on COMEDY CENTRAL and with repeats at 12:00 am on April 11, at 10:30 p.m. on April 12, as well as 2:00 a.m. and at 11:00 pm on April 13. Stan, Kyle, Kenny and Cartman join in anti-war protests in order to get out of school and find themselves in the middle of the opposing sides of the war issue. Mr. Garrison, an extreme supporter of the war, retaliates by assigning them book reports on the country's founding fathers. In a flashback, Cartman travels back to 1776 where he plays an important role in the historic signing of the Declaration of Independence. Legendary television producer Norman Lear (ALL IN THE FAMILY) collaborated with creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker on this episode and several other ones this season. Lear championed the idea because of his passion to inspire young people to participate in civic activism. As one of the sole owners of an original copy of the Declaration of Independence, Lear sponsors a national tour for people to view the historic document. Launched in 1997, SOUTH PARK remains the highest-rated series on COMEDY CENTRAL. Parker and Stone are co-creators and executive producers of the Emmy-nominated SOUTH PARK, with Anne Garefino also serving as executive producer.

Quick and reliable
Excellent delivery
Very speedy delivery. Item was exactly as described and well-wrapped.
They're fast and have good prices.
Product may not be for me - it's a verrrrry light moisturiser and not sure it give me enough moisture even though my skin is not dry and not oily just normal - ie for the first time ever i spotted some dry patches on my face towards the end of the day - i feel i need to use a lot to cover/moisture my face but this could be me not being 'used' to a light cream. Will finish it and continue to use it and monitor it...also for £10 you don't get that much!
Always on time and well packaged.
Nice and light. I have sensitve skin and have to be carefull with what I use. No skin problems with this range though. I use this this under make up during the day re SPF protection. Good value for money. Very pleased with it.
High quality product.
Gentle, lightweight moisturizer. Gets absorbed very quickly, therefore make up can be applied immediately.
Always a great service and quick delivery
