My family has owned Hacienda San Gabriel for three generations, but we're just the latest caretakers of its amazing history and romantic ambiance. Legends resonate through its historic walls to transport you to a different time and way of life.
Our story starts with Cortes, who ordered the construction of a Franciscan Monastery, destined to become the most important sugar cane plantation in Latin America. Like a Phoenix, Hacienda San Gabriel has risen from the ashes of history a number of times.
In our history, you can see Zapata during the Mexican revolution, and hear the echo of uprisings that kept the immense property of San Gabriel alive.
In 1972, our beautiful hacienda was featured on the cover of "Architectural Digest", and now it renews its story once again. For two generations, we have worked to create a small piece of perfection. We promote sustainability and ensure that our practices are always in balance with nature, fulfilling my grandmother's dream.
Our exotic boutique hotel, museum and spa welcome you to experience something unforgettable - vaulted ceilings, ten foot thick walls, room after room of museum-worthy furniture and art, as well as our own aqueduct that will soon produce hydroelectricity for the property. Imagine our lush tropical gardens, hidden pools, and bountiful orchards - every niche meticulously created and maintained.
Now image you and your new spouse here together on your honeymoon, becoming part of our history and treating yourselves to true luxury. We welcome same sex couples!

New England's Merger Muddle
Renewables thrust into the middle
A utility merger in New England hangs in the balance. The future of renewable energy in the region is in flux. And recent action by Massachusetts has made a difficult transaction even more complicated.
The most recent headline is that Massachusetts has delayed the proposed merger of Boston-based NStar and Hartford's Northeast Utilities, with operations in three states. The union would create the largest utility in New England, with a combined value of $17.5 billion with 3.5 million customers.
The Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources recently asked utility regulators not to make a decision until NStar completes a formal review of its rates. NStar has a rate case expected in 2012. The delay could kill the deal, the utilities said.
But there are more moving parts in the clean energy landscape in New England than there are holes in the current Red Sox starting rotation.
There's a very simple question with an extremely complicated answer at the most basic level of the merger discussion: What's the future of renewable energy in the region?
Consider all the following disparate pieces, each with its own impact on the merger.
The Massachusetts Global Warming Solutions Act. This 2008 law commits the state to greenhouse gas reductions 20 percent below 1990 levels by 2020.
Cape Wind. The 130-turbine offshore wind project is the most direct route to Massachusetts' clean energy mandate. Cape Wind has received all of its approvals for the $2.6 billion project but only 50 percent of its output has contracted, to National Grid, at above-market rates of 20.7 cents per kilowatt-hour in 2013.
NStar has other ideas. Negotiations between the utility and Cape Wind went nowhere fast last year. It has contracts with three wind projects totaling 109 megawatts. Those power prices have not been disclosed.
A different standard for merger review. Until this year, the Massachusetts Department of Public Utilities applied a standard of "no net harm" in its review of utility mergers. Starting with the NStar-Northeast combination, a new standard of "net benefit" is being applied that state officials say better reflects current energy challenges, including climate change.
Canadian hydropower. Hydro Quebec is aggressively marketing hydropower in the region and finalized long-term contracts with Vermont utilities last year. Some in Vermont see the resource as a way to lock up emissions-free energy as they seek to retire the Vermont Yankee nuclear plant, which is up for relicensing next year. The environmental attributes of large hydropower energy do not count for renewable portfolio standard compliance, but state legislatures have the ability to revise that.
Cross-border transmission. NStar and Northeast Utilities are partners in the proposed 1,200-megawatt Northern Pass Transmission line from Quebec into New Hampshire, with connections into Massachusetts. The companies have cited that project to boost its green cred with regulators. Other proposed transmission projects in Maine and Vermont would bring clean power to southern New England.
Biomass. That renewable energy source is practically off the table in Massachusetts with the state's decision to adopt stricter standards that essentially strip away its environmental attributes, disqualifying it from clean energy incentives.
And to add another dimension, Cape Wind foe Robert F. Kennedy Jr. just wrote an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal accusing Massachusetts of holding the NStar merger "hostage" to force its agreement to sign a contract with Cape Wind for the remaining half of its output. Cape Wind accuses Kennedy of hypocrisy, especially in light of his promotion of Canadian hydropower, a resource he previously opposed.
At any rate, the futures of renewable energy and this particular merger are inextricably linked.

Appointed Advisor mandates what he sells that doesn't work
As mandated by the Global Warming Solutions Act; the Climate Protection and Green Economic Advisory Committee assists Mass. Secretary of Environment and Energy by their identification of "lowest-cost", "most job-creating", green measures.
Paul Gaynor President and CEO First Wind
CoChair: Paul Gaynor (First Wind)
First Wind CEO co-authors wind energy mandates in Massachusetts as a Boston-based wind developer. His subsidiaries build wind projects that fail to produce energy, yet they still collect public subsidies.
If you're not worried about the state of the State, you should be. Gaynor co-authored the wind turbine siting reform act to eliminate all obsticles to the development of his business in Mass, by invitation extended by Deval Patrick and Tim Murray.

Peyton Manning is discovering that one of the biggest benefits to joining the Denver Broncos is their star-studded secondary.
It's helping him gauge his progress in his comeback, sharpen his timing with his new targets and scrape away the rust after his lost 2011 season.
The Broncos restocked their defensive backfield over the winter after seeing Pittsburgh's four-wide receiver sets and New England's big tight ends torch them in the playoffs.
They added veterans Tracy Porter, Drayton Florence and Mike Adams along with rookie Omar Bolden, released Andre' Goodman and wished Brian Dawkins well in his retirement.
With Quinton Carter sidelined, fellow second-year safety Raheem Moore is turning heads again, as is second-year cornerback Chris Harris, who will prove hard to bump out of his nickel back spot.

UN chief deplores use of chemical weapons in Syria
Saturday, December 14, 2013
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon deplored the use of chemical weapons in Syria and demanded Friday that those responsible are held accountable.
Ban told the U.N. General Assembly that the international community also has a moral and political responsibility to deter further incidents and "ensure that chemical weapons can never re-emerge as an instrument of warfare."
He addressed the 193-member world body on the final report issued Thursday by U.N. inspectors who examined seven alleged chemical weapons attacks in Syria. They concluded that chemical weapons were probably used in four locations, in addition to the confirmed attack near Damascus in August that forced the government to abandon its secret chemical stockpile.
The inspectors' limited mandate authorized them to determine whether chemical weapons were used but barred them from identifying whether the government or opposition fighters were responsible for any of the attacks.
"I deplore in the strongest possible terms the use of chemical weapons in Syria as an offense against the universal values of humankind," Ban told diplomats from the world's nations.
"Any use of chemical weapons by anyone under any circumstances is a grave violation" of the 1925 Geneva Protocol prohibiting the use of chemical and biological weapons "and other relevant rules of customary international law," he said.
The confirmed use of the deadly nerve agent sarin on Aug. 21 in the Ghouta area of Damascus, and the threat of possible U.S. military action, led to a U.S.-Russian agreement to eliminate Syria's chemical weapons by mid-2014 and Syrian agreement to join the Chemical Weapons Convention. The process of getting Syrian chemicals that can be used to make weapons out of the country is currently under way.
Thursday's report said evidence indicated chemical weapons were also probably used in Khan al Assal outside Aleppo on March 19 against soldiers and civilians, Jobar in Damascus' eastern suburbs on Aug. 24 against soldiers, Saraqueb near Idlib in the northwest on April 29 against civilians, and Ashrafiah Sahnaya in the Damascus countryside on Aug. 25 against soldiers. In two cases, it found "signatures of sarin."
The government and opposition accused each other of using chemical weapons at Khan al Assal and the report said none of the parties in Syria denied their use in the village. The allegations of chemical weapons use at Jobar and Ashrafiah Sahnaya were made by the Syrian government, while Britain and France raised the allegations about Saraqueb.
Ban urged all countries to sign and ratify the Chemical Weapons Convention, which prohibits the development, production, acquisition, stockpiling, retention, transfer or use of chemical weapons. It has been ratified by 190 countries.
Israel and Myanmar have signed but not ratified the convention while Angola, North Korea, Egypt and South Sudan have neither signed nor ratified it.
As efforts continue to eliminate Syria's chemical weapons and chemical precursors, Ban said he remains determined "to reach an urgent end to the conflict" which has killed "well over 100,000 people," mostly by conventional weapons and left nearly half of Syria's population either displaced or in urgent need of humanitarian assistance.
Ban said the Syrian conflict, which began over 2 1/2 years ago, is having "profound impacts on the stability and economy of the entire Middle East."

Pokerstars launches new $600 free new user bonus plus $300 reload bonus

The Team PokerStars Pro Vanessa Rousso has managed to double up just before the end of level 4. The board was reading K34 and Roberto Romanello had raised her 4,000 bet to 26,500 effectively setting her all-in.
She sat there thinking, taking off her sunglasses and sighed saying, "That's just about the best flop for my hand..."
After a couple of minutes she pushed all-in and Romanello made the obligatory call and flipped the 87 but Rousso turned over the dominating A5 and stood up for the crucial pot. The 5 on the turn improved Rousso's hand but actually gave Romanello three more outs but a blank J river helped neither. Rousso boosted her stack up to 63,700 at the break, while the Welshman, fresh off already doubling up her PokerStars team-mate Barry Greenstein, is now back down to just 21,000.
Play qualifiers for events like the EPT Grand Final at PokerStars.

Year Planted: 2008 Trees Planted: 67,834 Location: California
In the San Bernardino Mountains, 12 million trees are dead or dying due to six years of drought, which has triggered stress and bark beetle epidemics. Devastating wildfires have swept through parts of the mountains, in some places killing 100 percent of the trees. The long-term 'Mountain Communities Wildfire ReLeaf Project' will plant 51,000 trees while it continues to develop and implement a comprehensive reforestation program for these southern California Mountains. Partnering with American Forests are the Mojave Resource Conservation District and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.
This project was supported by our corporate partner, the Alcoa Foundation.

More than half the Democrats surveyed say Sen. Barack Obama should tap Sen. Hillary Clinton for a running mate, but most say the fight for the nomination should go on.
by Mark Silva
While most Democrats are telling pollsters that Sen. Hillary Clinton should continue her contest with Sen. Barack Obama for the party's presidential nomination, most also say they like the idea of Obama tapping Clinton for his running mate.
Of course, sentiment for that "dream team'' runs stronger among Clinton's supporters than among Obama's supporters, the Gallup Poll has found.
While 55 percent of the Democrats surveyed say Obama should take Clinton, 38 percent say he should select someone else.
All sorts of names are floating out there in the great unfocused media spin bin: Sen. Jim Webb of Virginia, Gov. Ted Strickland of Ohio, heck, even retiring Republican Sen. Chuck Hagel of Nebraska.
But Eric Holder, one of Obama's chief advisers, said this morning in an interview on MSNBC that Clinton clearly is on Obama's "short list'' for running mates.
That sits well with Clinton's supporters - with 73 percent telling Gallup that Obama should select the senator from New York and former first lady. Yet, while 43 percent of Obama's backers like that ticket, another 52 percent say they oppose the idea.
Most surveyed say the fight should go on.
"Despite the sense of inevitability that has settled over the assumption that Obama will be the Democratic Party's presidential nominee, and the discussion of the possible negative implications of Clinton's continuing campaign, a slight majority of Democrats continue to say both candidates should keep campaigning,'' Gallup Editor-in-chief Frank Newport reports.
"There is also strong support among Clinton supporters for her to be chosen as Obama's running mate, should he win the nomination. The data show that Obama supporters at the moment tend to reject that idea, but their opposition is not overwhelming.''
The May 8-11 survey carries a possible margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points. For more, see Gallup's report today.

I'v been blessed iwth a wonderful baby, he hardely ever cries and the past few days has been taking naps with only a nuk to sooth(big acomplishment from nursing to sleep!). But, He wont sleep through the night. its not that big of an issue because we have a 'family bed', but it would be nice to not have to wake up every 3 hours or so to flip. Any advice? he can put himself to sleep at night when he wakes up also. I'v been told it might be becuase hes teething and needs comfort? I have been giving him tylonal and its helped a little. but any other help would be Much appreciated!!

The sleep sense is NOT a CIO as sweet_caroline mentioned. We used it and it actually works miracles lol. I couldn't believe that after 8 months of waking every 2hrs, my baby was sleeping through the night 12hrs, in less a week of starting this! Not sure if she's talking about the same thing.

Will you consider to use some white noise to help your baby sleep? You can use it every night and also during the day nap. Then your children will know that it's time to sleep when you play the white noise music. We are supplier specializing in Baby White Noise, and have been selling CD's from our Baby White Noise Series through online channels and retails with very positive feedback. We are now running a giveaway promotion of free white noise mp3 to help the parents having baby with sleep problems.

I have a 5 month old, and I've found that if I omit one of his naps during the day and just keep him up, he sleeps so much better. For example, he wakes up at around 10am, I keep him up until about 2:30pm and then he'll sleep until about 5pm (he usually wakes up once during that time, but I take him out of his crib and bring him to our bedroom and nurse him back to sleep on our bed), then I keep him up by playing with him, putting him in his exersaucer which he LOVES, and we watch 1-2 of his favorite learning dvds, and then around 9pm I give him a bath and let him play in the tub and then I give him a 25 minute massage (which really relaxes him!) while he's watching his baby sign language dvd. Then, it's back to bed to nurse (he sleeps with me at night). He wakes up every couple of hours at night to nurse but always goes right back to sleep. I've found his pacifier very useful when he just wants to suckle something. -Ashleighposted 03/20/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
You should read a book called Babywise. It teaches you to teach your baby to sleep thru the night and some other things. my baby started sleeping thru the night at around 6-7 weeks. Its an excellent book. I'd advise all new mommys to read it!posted 12/17/2008 by a BabyCenter Member
I am really sorry to say this but co-sleeping is not an easy way to sleep (and this includes a crib in your room). I tried doing it (family bed and a crib beside my bed) until my son was 10 months old. He never slept for more than 2.5 hours in 10 months. We then converted a bathroom into a little nursery (all safety requirements followed) and he slept through the night the same week. We are still nursing at bedtime and at 6 am when he goes back to sleep for another one and a half hour. I believe it is because they can hear you breathe and smell your presence that they stir and want to attach. If they are on their own they don't rouse themselves to wake. Good luck with whatever decisions you make.posted 12/09/2008 by CarolA.
I have a two month and 4 week old. He has been sleeping throughout since a month old. I had to increase his feedings to six ounces because he goes eight to nine hours sleeping without waking out!!!His doctor told me I am so lucky because usually when a baby sleeps throughtout they only sleep for 5 to six hours. He usally takes 3 naps during the day every 2-3 hours.posted 11/18/2008 by Irene32486

The "sleepsense program" on the website mentioned is a Cry It Out program. if you are co-sleeping and/or breastfeeding, you are likely practicing attachment parenting skills and shouldn't do a cry it out (CIO) method.

I have a 2 months and 3 weeks old and he is sleeping through the night from 8 pm to 8 am... he wakes up only once for feeding!!!... the secret???, this website, I swear it worked for us... is a online book with email support if you need it... just in a coule of days Aidan was sleeping all night long and I couldn't believe it! this is the website: www.sleepsense.net We are so gratefull for it... it is a lot of things you probably know already, but it puts everything together in the right order... It was amazing how quick my son learned to put himself to sleep.... so he didn't need me anymore to put his paci on or turn on some music. I highly recommend this book after reading 10000 other ones that didn't work at all! Good luck with it!posted 08/26/2007 by Marcela1812

The Right Light For The Job
My still photo assignments dictate my lighting kits. While every situation is different, I've found three basic categories: ultracompact strobes for when I'm on the go for reportage assignments; monolights when I need more power, but plugging in is either impractical or impossible; and power packs and separate heads for editorial and advertising jobs, where I need total light control with multilight setups and the power to get down to small ƒ-stops. In all three cases, my kits will include modifiers to control the light. After all, if you don't control thelight, the light will control you.
By Mark Edward Harris
Here's a brief breakdown of the equipment I use in different situations.I use Nikon and Profoto gear primarily, but companies such as Balcar, Bowens, Broncolor, Dynalite, Elinchrom, Norman and Speedotron all make high-quality products that are variations of what I use.
1 Separate Power Packs And Heads. I have three Profoto Acute2R 1200 power packs and five heads, and rent more when needed. As with the monolights, multivoltage is a key for my international travel work. For shoots out of the U.S. requiring light, I'd never plug in a 120V pack using a converter—too much is at stake. There are two switches on the Acute2R pack that need to be set to the correct power. This unit requires a change in modeling lights when working in 220-240V locations. Additionally, I always use a surge protector overseas. In a small village in western Kenya, we were using an old generator that spiked. If not for the surge protector (which started smoking), our equipment would have been toast. Each Profoto Acute2R 1200 gives 1200 Ws of power and measures 7.5x8.7x5.1 inches and weigh 9 pounds. There are three sockets for flash heads. The symmetrical-asymmetric energy distribution over six ƒ-stops in ¼-step adjustments allows me to divide up the power to my A and B channels. The built-in radio gives me remote operation with my PocketWizards up to just over 300 feet. Besides the light-shaping and grip equipment I pack when working with monolights, I always carry at least one head extension to give me the often crucial added distance for flash-head placement. My shoot with actor Jeremy Piven on location in Malibu required a dramatic sky in the background, but the time allotted for the shoot was earlier than I
would have liked, the sun still being somewhat high in the sky. I needed to bring my power up and the sun down.With a full CTO (color temperature orange) over the flash head in a large softbox on a C-Stand weighted down with sandbags, I used a Hasselblad H2 syncing at 1?1000 sec. with its leaf shutter and got my ƒ-stop down to ƒ/13, which gave me the drama I was looking for.
2 Monolights. For more power and light-shaping options on locations that don't have easy access to electrical outlets (e.g., the beach), monolights are the obvious choice. Since I do a lot of international travel assignments, the Profoto D1 Air system (available in 250, 500 and 1000 Ws), with its ability to recharge, as well as plug in and fire with any worldwide voltage, is what I use. I also carry a bag of international plug adapters and a power surge protector. The Profoto D1 1000 Air weighs 6.48 pounds, the D1 500 Air weighs 5.36 pounds and the 250 weighs in at 4.91 pounds. The units have a built-in reflector that eliminates the need to carry a standard reflector.
My travel kit includes umbrellas and softboxes with speed rings, a set of honeycomb grids and grid holders, stands, A-clamps, gels, gaffer's tape and sandbags that can be filled on location with rocks, dirt or sand. They all get packed along with the monolights in a Tamrac Rolling Studio case.While I still use PocketWizards to trigger the flash, the Profoto Air system enables remote control and triggering from as far as 1,000 feet when it's connected to the Profoto Air USB for PC and Mac.
3 Ultraportable Flash Units. Flashes are lighter and more portable, but offer less power and slower recycle times than monolights and power packs with separate heads. Still, I've found I can be pretty creative with a flash powered by four AA batteries (I use lithiums).The key is to
get the flash off the camera. My kit for this lighting setup is simple: a NikonSpeedlight SB-800 for my Nikon D3, a set of CTOs (1?8, ¼, ½ and full) to warm up the daylight-balanced flash as needed, aNikon Diffusion Dome, which I use on occasion, gaffer's tape and an SC-29 cord, which has a built-in AF illuminator.I add this setup to my Tamrac bag with my cameras, lenses and computer, and I'm ready to go.

Last night at Zanzabar was that rare treat when all three acts in the line-up were well-worth seeing for themselves alone. Robert Francis and Lawrence Arabia opened for headliner Fanfarlo, with sets that seemed too short as their only drawbacks. Francis, barefoot on stage, delivered soulful rock songs about hard times and falling in and out of love. Only 22 years-old, he has the artistic assurance of someone who has been around the block a few times, and a warm,deep voice that lends itself well to the emotional lyrics of standout songs like "Junebug" and "Nightfall" from his most recent album, Before the Nightfall on Atlantic Records.
After a six-song set, Francis and his band quickly transitioned over to New Zealander James Milne's Lawrence Arabia. Besides singer and songwriter Milne, the band features Hayden East (keyboard), Martin Keane (bass), Daniel Ward (drums), and Tom Watson (guitar and trumpet). As the crowd packed in, they effused a pleasant, 60's pop vibe with charmers like "Auckland CBD Part Two" with a bit of an afro-beat, and the irresistibly catchy "Apple Pie Bed." I was particularly impressed by the lovely harmonies in "The Beautiful Young Crew," paired with Watson's bright trumpet over the guitars.
The musical pyramid built up to buzz band Fanfarlo, and by the time they took the stage, the crowd had predictably swelled and sardined me mid-pack so that all I could see was the top of front-man Simon Balthazar's head. If you're a fan of live music, it helps to be tall. I'm not. They were four songs in before I wedged my way forward enough to glimpse drummer Amos Memon, bassist Justin Finch, and the rest of the band.
Fanfarlo creates a gorgeously layered sound with multi-instrumentalists: Leon Beckenham's trumpet soars over lush orchestrations of guitar when he's not on keys; Cathy Lucas apparently plays everything, but most often violin and mandolin; and Balthazar switches between electric and acoustic guitars, as well as the odd woodwind. All lend their finely tuned vocals to songs that range from the symphonic and dreamy "I'm a Pilot" to the folkier foot-stomping of the "The Walls are Falling Down."
Each song seems lovingly and intricately crafted, and while Fanfarlo has been compared to other "art" rock bands like Arcade Fire and Grizzly Bear, I think they have a distinct sound that really isn't like anyone else. The one similarity that keeps occurring to me is actually to Elvis Costello -- not in the sound so much as the range and musical ambition that I see in Simon Balthazar.

I hope you're doing okay - all of you, of course!
Generally, I'm just gonna post a huge load of photos.. because I'm a cam-whore and because I love the fact that the guy from WHOOGA-eu called me a Fashion-blogger \(*___*);; ♡ am I really a fashion blogger? And what even defines a fashion blogger? Man.. so many things to consider now that I'm a "fashion blogger" - if I even am one?! It's not that I only post about fashion.. I post amount many things. But fashion is a new bulb that lit just above my curly, little head.. -sigh- Labels, labels.. who cares anyway.
Moving on!
As mentioned.. I'm actually wearing circle lenses today! WOOOO! How cool is that? I'm pretty clumsy, so of course I dropped them like twice before finally pushing them in place (that sounded so incredibly violent.. lol). I think it looks decent. I really don't wanna end up looking like those crazy, droopy-eyed, white gyaru chicks who look more like surprised monsters than FABULOUS gyaru girls.. -__-" I'm sticking with nothing bigger than 14mm. My own eyes are 13mm. + a bit, so these lenses don't show up on cam. But irl and on digi cam they show up a bit. I actually really like them! They emphasize my own eye-color pretty well without making me look freaky... or well, freakier than usual. lol
Anyway... I was inspired by Keikk to try out my old faux fur hat. Faux fur is (and will always be) super in with gyaru, so why not give this old sucker another try. I've always had quite the lot of trouble with this thing.. It just HAS to make the top of my head flat and narrow and let my hair hang all over the place, big and wavy. I don't know.. I've just never been lucky with hats. I asked Keikk how on EAAAAARTH she made it work with hers.. without looking all weirdly face-shaped. She told me to just go for it.. and so I did. Cause I'm a kid in kindergarten.. I need someone older and wiser to tell me what to do. lol
After deciding that ''ohhhh, it doesn't look THAT bad, aye?'' I decided to pose a bit. Cause I'm a dork (and a fashion-blogger, lol). Bear with me, guys.. It's Thursday and I have no job, no people to hang out with (cause I live in the middle of nowhere) and generally no life.
A few days ago I finally spent (most of) my Matas giftcard. There was a bit less than $40 on it, so I decided to spend it on an emergency-rescue-kit for my nails. They've been chipping like there's no tomorrow, so I've been really desperate to find something nice for them.
I decided on the Mavala Protective Base Coat and their Nail strengthener. You can't tell that well from the tiny nail-photo, but my nails look like someone tried to chop them off with hammer and sickle or something. It's really ugly. lol
I mean.. look at the striped, long-sleeve that ties in the back?! Ahhhhh so cuuuute~ \(^3^)/ The printed tee is really cute too.. Ahh, in general I just want it all! STUPID BANK ACCOUNT! Fill yourself up, dammit!
Now to something different.. kinda/sorta/maybe.. HAIR!
I know, I knoooow - I just had a haircut. BUT, I found a few photos of kpoppers whose styles I wanna try out..
First up is the EPIC coloring of Jessica's hair in "Run Devil Run". A lot of people have been talking about this, and I still think it's pure.. well, epic. lol. I used to have dark stripes before, but since I went 'au naturel' I just didn't think much about it.. at least not until a week ago. I really want them done pro. Cause home-dye and salon dye are two VERY different things. I just really like the effortless look of her coloring.. *sigh*
And of course.. Jun Hyo Sung was the only one I could come up with that had this style (as I'm still learning my J-models' names. lol) She's the leader of Secret and these pictures are snaps from their MADONNA music video. I LOVE THIS UP-DO! It's so cute! Sadly, I'm having a hard time figuring out how to do this thing.. Would it be with a side ponytail and a lot of hair here and there..? I tried following one of the EGG 'tutorials' but everyone knows that magazine tutorials are crappy. lol. I just couldn't see exactly what was going on.. so yeah.. I gave up. If any of you guys know of a good site/youtuber/whatever who does this hairstyle, feel free to redirect me with a link!
Oh bummer.. what's with the long-ass entries? SORRY GUYS! I know that I'm not 'pro' enough to pull off the mile-long entries yet. I shall try to suppress the urge. lol.
Thanks for reading, y'all!

I have been reading the same book for a long time and it is also what I am reading now. The book is called Mission Unpopular by Anna Humphrey. I am enjoying how this girl named Margot is making her way through 7th grade without her BF, Erika, and she has made new friends. I am disliking how she is not really hanging out with her BF and Erika is feeling really lonely. Pretty good book so far!

A North Carolina museum is celebrating healthy eating by displaying sculptures made out of canned food.
The Marbles Kids Museum in Raleigh opens what's become its 10th annual Canstruction competition on Saturday. The event pits seven local design and architectural firms against each other as they build giant sculptures on the theme of food and good eating.
The displays made out of nonperishable food items focus on healthy fruits and vegetables.
It's part of a national competition that raises awareness about the fact that every can of food makes a difference in fighting hunger and malnutrition.
At the end of the exhibit, the food will be donated to the Food Bank of Central & Eastern North Carolina to help feed the hungry.

6 x Heaps Pork, Apple & Wildflower Honey Sausages
25g Butter
25g Flour
2 x Carrots
1 x Stick of Celery
1 x Medium White Onion
1 x Bramley Apple
3 x Sage Leaves
500ml Cider
25ml Single Cream
I'm going to show you how to make a delicious sausage stew and this is a pork and apple sausage, always available in most and major supermarkets.
Now what I'm going to do is cook the sausages insider alongside celery, carrot and apple and onion. Now the apple, you don't prepare until the very last minute simply because we want it to stay nice and green and white not discolouring at all through oxidization. So I'm going to just take out the core and I'm going to cook this in the pan on the top of the stove. I'm not going to put this in the oven although you could put it in the oven; it's quite acceptable to do so. So these pieces are then roughly cut into thicker slices. All right, so all of the ingredients are ready to be used. I pre heated the pan on the stove, I'm going to add some butter to the hot pan, I'm going to take some flour and lightly flour each of the sausages and just stir them in the butter. And what's going to happen here is I'm going to seal the sausages and simultaneously begin by making the [roll] which will thicken as I cook this. I don't want it too thick, you can see it's picked up quite a bit of flour and you can see the butter forming quite nicely. Now I've got on the back of my stove a large pan ready to make this and what I want to try and get here is a very, very light golden brown colour. So what I'm going to do now is lift the sausages so they're just slightly sealed into the cooking pot. I'm going to add all the vegetables and the apples into the pan and just give them a light sealing. I'm not going to overdo this, I don't want to burn the butter and the flour, I want them to be able to thicken when I add the cider to the actual stew. I want it to just have a light coating over the actual sausages. I'm going to finish this also with a little cream which enriches the dish. You noticed the way I've trimmed these vegetables. They're all roughly the same size. The apples are the same size as the carrots, the celery and the onion pieces. If I cook them irregularly then there's a likelihood that they could burn during the cooking process. Okay just so that you know, you can see that there's a little light colour on there and when I add the cider, I'm not going to add any other liquid at all. This will come back to the boil and the flour and the butter together will combine and slightly thicken this. By the time this is cooked through, you're going to have a very consistent sauce. Now I'm going to add some pepper. I reckon from start to finish you're looking at the dish here that will cook and be ready to eat in about 30 minutes. And then to add just a pinch of salt, not too much and perhaps one other flavour that will really work very well with this is some sage, fresh sage. Now you can leave the sage in whole pieces and this is for three people. You can use it to decorate at the end so there we go. These are being washed and I'm going to add them to the stew now. There done it. Bring it to the boil, just coming up to the boil now. I'm going to regulate the gas just so this simmers very gently. It's just coming up to the boil. You can add more salt and more pepper later on when you know that probably it is of the dish is ready to eat. Problem with adding too much now is the salt and the contents of the sausage are going to give you a contributing flavour to the finished dish. We need to see how that develops during the cooking process and then when we're ready to serve it we can correct the sage thing then. The sausage stew is now at 25 minutes approximately nearly a half an hour and I think it's ready. Now you're not really going to be looking for anything more than the vegetables are quite soft. The sausages would definitely be good; they've also contributed to the sauce. The only thing I'm going to do is just add a drop of cream, you don't need very much. Just incorporate it and finish with a bit of

Figgy pudding bars made with Duchy Originals oaten biscuits!
Christmas is officially on it's way. The big tree in Rockefeller Center has been lit for 2 weeks now, everyone has been shopping up a storm, and of course baking! Rightly so… it's literally 8 days away! If you haven't already, it's time to start thinking of Christmas-y treats. Which brings me to today's post. If you're a longtime reader, you'll remember both my figgy pudding cupcakes & also that last holiday season I made a recipe featuring Duchy Originals lemon shortbread cookies.
(If you're a new reader- well, suffice it to say, one time I made figgy pudding cupcakes & another time I made a lemon cranberry cobbler recipe featuring Duchy Originals lemon shortbread cookies. Haha.)
Anyway… the lovely folks at Duchy Originals wanted me to create a new recipe, this time for their Oaten biscuits. The oaten variety was the first one that was made for Duchy:
The Oaten Biscuit was the original Duchy Original – it was their first product back in 1992. Duchy Originals grow the wheat and oats themselves on farms in the UK. To get the perfect recipe and flavor, they teamed up with Walkers Shortbread who have been making shortbread in the Scottish Highlands for over 100 years.
Of course I said yes! I absolutely love the Duchy company & also the Walkers Shortbread company. In case you weren't aware, Duchy was started by Prince Charles (yes-that Prince Charles!) in 1992 in order to promote organic food and farming and to help protect and sustain the local countryside and wildlife. it is one of the U.K.'s leading organic and sustainable food companies, producing a range of over 250 products from biscuits to preserves and gifts to garden seeds. A donation from the sale of Duchy Originals products is given to The Prince of Wales's Charitable Foundation. More than $1 million is raised annually in this way for distribution to charitable causes all over the world. Duchy Originals from Waitrose shortbreads and cookies are baked by the world famous Walkers Shortbread in the Scottish Highlands.
And I thought it appropriate that being that they're an English brand, and it's Christmas, I make a "figgy pudding" reference.

Interview: Huntress' Jill Janus on Heat Stroke, Bus Breakdowns, and Disappearing Trolls
Revolver Magazine | Jun 10, 2014 | Comments 0 | Tags: Hottest Chicks in Hard Rock, Hottest Chicks in Metal, huntress, Jill Janus, Mayhem Fest, Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival
In anticipation of this summer's Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival–which we cover in our June/July 2014 issue, on newsstands now–we asked some of the tour's previous participants to share their craziest memories from the experience and to give their best advice to this year's performers. Below, Huntress frontwoman Jill Janus sounds off.
REVOLVER What is your favorite or craziest memory of last year's Mayhem Fest?
JILL JANUS My craziest memory was our bus breaking down. Twice. Our bus mates were Battlecross, team players all the way. The heat was so vicious, our bus couldn't handle the hottest days. The A/C would go out first, all electric in the bus next, then the smell of burning rubber. Overheating was typical, but when it broke down the second time, we had to leave the bus with a mechanic for repairs, then rent an SUV and van. We traveled like this for about a week, then got the bus back. Turns out the bus was way behind on inspections and didn't have back breaks. Shit happens.
What advice do you have for this year's bands?
The best advice I can give bands on Mayhem Fest is don't drink too much water! Sounds crazy, but the problem I encountered in brutally hot temperatures was drinking too much water and flushing out my body's salt. So I got heat stroked twice. A trick I picked up was carrying a salt shaker to side stage and putting a little salt on my tongue before I performed, and washing that back with water. No more heat strokes. And seriously, take advantage of those free Rockstar
Energy Drinks!
What does it mean to you to have been a part of something like Mayhem Fest?
Being part of Mayhem Fest is obviously a killer boost for visibility and fan base, but more than all that, it's like being part of a family. Everyone looks out for each other and there's a newfound camaraderie with bands you've admired for years. Once you're inside this touring machine, all the noise from the outside world dies down; you start to realize as you climb the ranks in metal, opinions of outsiders don't matter. The trolls and negativity disappear, and you truly know you're living the dream.

Hey all,
I've been riding fixed a while now in an urban environment, but entering the realm of track cycling. I currently ride a 53cm Panasonic track and I am 5'9 running 77.8" (49/17).
When I'm holding a very fast cadence (nearly spinning out), I find myself bobbing a lot. Is there anything I can do to adjust my form, or possibly an adjustment to my bike that will alleviate this problem? I feel like the bobbing is really killing the smoothness of my cadence.
Thanks again for any suggestions.

Re: Time to say goodbye to Tim. Post your love notes here.
I have to say that I am a very new listener to the show, and until a few weeks ago i had never even heard of Game Critics.com. The very first show I ever heard was when Tim announced he would no longer be a part of the show. My initial thought was "who's this joker, and why do I care?" Over the last couple of weeks I listened to every single one of the GC podcasts, and with each new show, a greater appreciation of Tim's hosting abilities and original mind grew within me. By the time i listened to the first show, I was surprised to discover that Tim had been the exact same since the very first podcast. I realized that he never changed through the three plus years on the show, and that his personality was the thing that changed the GC podcast from an average gaming radio show, to a hilarious and original podcast that will never be the same without him. I have only spent about three weeks with the podcast at this point, but I felt compelled to register on the forums, and post my sincere goodbye. Tim, you are a gem of a games reviewer and podcast host, and will be missed. Make the most out of the extra time you now have with your family, please come back sooner rather than later, and as often as too humanly possible.

Textbooks around the world will need changing to reflect the oldest known bird. A new species has knocked Archaeopteryx out of its former top spot.
A small, feathered beast called Aurornis xui, described in the latest issue of Nature, is now believed to be the first known bird.
"Our analyses indicate it as the most primitive bird known," said co-author Andrea Cau, a vertebrate paleontologist at the Museo Geologico Giovanni Capellini in Italy. "It was a small feathered dinosaur that lived in what is now China about 160 million years ago. It looked like a ground bird, but with a long tail, clawed hands and toothed jaws."
Cau and colleagues recently analyzed the bird's remains, which were unearthed at the Tiaojishan Formation of Liaoning Province in northeastern China.
The name Aurornis xui is made up of the words Aurora (Latin for "daybreak") Ornis (Greek for "bird") and xui, in honor of Xu Xing, a well-known Chinese paleontologist who specializes in feathered dinosaurs and the non-avian dinosaur-to-bird transition.
The line between non-avian dinosaurs and birds blurs at the mid-to-late Jurassic period, but the researchers believe that both Aurornis and Archaeopteryx were more bird than non-avian dino. Prior to this study, there was some debate over whether Archaeopteryx, which lived 10 to 15 million years after Aurornis, was a bird. The authors of this latest report believe it was.
There is now a clear lineage leading from non-avian dinosaurs to birds, starting with the clade of dinosaurs called Maniraptora ("hand snatchers").
"The maniraptoran theropods are the animals most similar to Archaeopteryx and early birds, and thus are the best candidate as avian ancestors," Cau said. "In particular, we found that the earliest birds were very similar to the earliest troodontids, a kind of maniraptorans."

This record is historically interesting more than anything else. Sound quality of the original recording is quite poor.

Realogy Corporation, one of the leading providers of real estate and relocation services, recently announced the launch of a new suite of technical enhancements that have improved and streamlined its proprietary LeadRouterSM online lead management system.
Since its inception eight years ago, LeadRouter has distributed more than 13 million sales leads directly to brokers and sales associates affiliated with Realogy's residential real estate franchise brands—Better Homes and Gardens® Real Estate, CENTURY 21R, Coldwell Banker®, ERAR, Sotheby's International Realty®—including offices owned by its brokerage subsidiary, NRT LLC.
"When you consider that the majority of homebuyers and sellers ultimately will work with the first real estate agent who responds to them, you can understand how important LeadRouter is for our affiliated brokers and agents," said Alex Perriello, president and CEO of the Realogy Franchise Group.
First launched in 2004 as the first web-based product of its kind and available only to Realogy-affiliated brokers and agents, LeadRouter captures leads from both homebuyers and sellers and forwards them instantly as both voice and text messages to agents' mobile devices, enabling them to respond to consumers within minutes of receiving the request. The LeadRouter platform distributes leads from more than 20,000 offline and online sources, including Realogy's brand websites and listing distribution partners as well as phone inquiries and walk-ins.
According to the company, the new, streamlined LeadRouter is designed for a new generation of real estate professionals, with enhanced mobile versions of the product, optimization for iPadR, vastly improved usability, faster lead routing and improved tracking and follow-up of long-term leads. In addition, Realogy brand franchisees' now have a broader array of technical tools to track conversion rate and marketing return-on-investment based on lead source, marketing campaign and customer type, allowing them to continuously fine-tune their business decisions related to marketing expenditures in real time.

Delray Municipal Beach
Lifeguards are on duty from 9:00 am - 5:00 pm 365 days per year. Always swim in front of a lifeguard.
Delray Municipal Beach is one of the most accessible and beautiful beaches in South Florida and was selected by Travel Holiday magazine as the top public beach in the southeastern United States for swimming and one of the top 35 beaches in the country. Sand quality, water warmed by the gulf stream current, and safe waves were all cited as factors contributing to their choice of Delray Municipal Beach.
The history of the Municipal Beach began before the beginning of the last century. Click on this link to read a 1922 newspaper article with historical information about Sarah Gleason and a narrative about her provision of land for the Municipal Beach.
The City of Delray Beach contracts with a beach cleaning service and a cabana rental company to insure year round enjoyment of the Municipal Beach for our residents and visitors.
The Municipal Beach has five parks with parking areas for automobiles in addition to parallel parking along Ocean Blvd. Sarah Gleason Park is named for a visionary local landowner, who in 1871, sold the land along the ocean with deed restrictions identifying what is now the municipal beach. Sandoway Park and the Ingraham residents parking lot, Anchor Park, and municipal parking just north of Atlantic Ave. adjacent to the Marriott Hotel provide 400 parking spaces. The Ocean Rescue Division Headquarters is also located in Anchor Park. Atlantic Dunes Park provides an additional 114 parking spaces for beach-goers. Reasonably priced Beach Parking Permits are available that cover a one year period from October 1 through September 30.
Recreation Areas
The Ocean Rescue Division designates specific use areas on the Municipal Beach for swimming, surfing, volleyball, sailing, wind surfing, snorkeling, with two recreational areas for kite flying, Frisbees, paddleball, etc.
Sailboat Storage
The City of Delray Beach has boat storage spaces available on the municipal beach. The cost of the annual permit is $265.00. Permits can be purchased at Delray Beach Community center (50 NW 1st Ave., Delray Beach) between 8:00 am and 5:00 pm, Monday thru Friday. Current permit holders can renew their permits for one (1) year starting October 1st.
Boats must pass an inspection before a permit can be issued. All boats must be kept in good repair and seaworthy condition. To schedule your inspection or for further information please contact Gail Vanhove at (561) 243-7252 or firstname.lastname@example.com.
All boats must exhibit a properly attached and valid City permit by November 30th or the boat will be removed from the beach at the boat owner's expense.
At the North end of the Beach, at the intersection of Atlantic Avenue and A-1-A, the City maintains an elevated covered pavilion as well as a wooden walkway and observation platform that extends out onto the beach. The observation platform provides a view of both the beach and the Atlantic Ocean. Handicap parking is located on A-1-A next to these facilities and across Atlantic Avenue, a newly constructed accessible restroom facility was opened at Sarah Gleason Park.
Two Surf Chairs are available for the physically challenged to enjoy the beach. The chairs allow for mobility on the sand and are available from 9:00 am until 5:00 pm at the following lifeguard towers: South 1, located at A1A and Atlantic Avenue and Atlantic Dunes Park, located on A1A just one block north of Linton Blvd. The use of the surf chair is free of charge but there is a two (2) hour time limitation. Use of the chair is on a first-come, first-serve basis, and the user must be accompanied by a companion who is able to assist the user. The lifeguards on duty can assist in getting the chair to you, but you must have someone in your party assist in getting in and out of the chair and using the chair on the sand.
Please Note: To ensure safety, Ocean Rescue Staff are not allowed to assist in the transfer of users from wheelchairs or walkers to the surf chair, nor are they allowed to push the user in the surf chair. Therefore, a companion must accompany the user or else the use of the surf chair will be denied.
"No person shall bring into, have or keep in any park, recreation or municipal beach site, any cat, dog or other animal without a specific permit from the Parks and Recreation Department. However, any cat, dog or other animal shall be allowed on the sidewalk and grassy area of the municipal beach between the eastern curb of A-1-A and western base of the dune for the entire length of the municipal beach and shall be on a leash. For purposes of this ordinance, the western base of the dune encompasses all vegetative growth that is found on the dune. All animal owners shall be responsible for the cleanup and disposal of their animal waste in this area." - Ordinance No. 57-01, Section 101.27 (B).
For a full version of this ordinance, please contact the City Clerk's office at (561) 243-7051.
Palm Beach County Parks and Recreation opened a 2.5 acre fenced-in section of Lake Ida Park, made especially for your K-9 buddies to socialize, exercise and just plain have fun. There's a large Fido section and small Fido section complete with drinking areas. Don't forget your pooch and people manners, though. Basic rules of etiquette will apply.
For more information, or for your copy of the Pooch and People Rules of Etiquette, please contact Palm Beach County Parks and Recreation at (561) 966-6664.

Public & Private Partnership Builds on Success of 2012 Program That Placed More Than 5,300 Youth,
Including Disconnected & At-Risk Youth
Today Mayor Edwin M. Lee and the United Way of the Bay Area along with City Departments and private sector employers announced the launch of Summer Jobs+ 2013, challenging employers this summer to create 6,000 jobs and paid internships for San Francisco youth. Mayor Lee's Summer Jobs+ 2013 will connect San Francisco employers with low-income and disconnected San Francisco youth.
"Last year, San Francisco worked together to answer President Obama's call to provide meaningful work experience and a paycheck to San Francisco youth," said Mayor Lee. "We not only answered that call, but exceeded our own aggressive goals of 5,000 jobs than 5,300 young adults in jobs and paid internships for the summer and beyond," said Mayor Lee. "We are setting an even more ambitious goal for 2013 to create meaningful employment opportunities for our young people so we set them up for success now and in the future. I am again calling upon employers across San Francisco to join us in supporting the future of our young people."
Last year, President Barack Obama issued a challenge to businesses, non-profits, and government: Work together to provide pathways to employment for low-income and disconnected youth. Last year through San Francisco Summer Jobs+, 5,200 young people participated in new job opportunities—over 1,700 of them worked in the private sector at 86 companies and organizations throughout the city including Starbucks, Advent and Uniqlo. Thirty nine percent (663 jobs) of these private sector summer jobs turned into permanent positions for San Francisco youth.
United Way of the Bay Area is leading San Francisco's effort in support of Mayor Lee's Summer Jobs+ Program along with Department of Children Youth and their Families (DCYF), Office of Economic and Workforce Development (OEWD) and the San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD).
"We're proud to again be partnering with Mayor Lee and employers throughout San Francisco on Summer Jobs+ 2013," said United Way Bay Area Chief Executive Officer Anne Wilson. "No Mayor or city in America is doing more to get our young people into good jobs and internships for the summer; a critical steppingstone that will help set them on the path to success."
Employers that have already committed to hiring Summer Jobs+ participants in 2013 include salesforce.com, Starbucks, Advent, Bank of America, Nektar, Twilio, Jawbone, members of SFMade and many more.
"It hasn't always been easy for me – I'm independent, fighting to get a good education and make it here in San Francisco, the city of opportunity," said LaRon Ryan, a 21 year old participant in Summer Jobs+ 2012 who worked at Jawbone, a San Francisco technology company. "Over the years I've learned how to advocate for myself and take initiative. You know, that's how I got my tech internship at Jawbone through the San Francisco Summer Jobs+ program. It pretty much changed my life."
Employers or youth interested in participating or learning more about San Francisco Summer Jobs+, go to www.matchbridge.org/summer or call 3-1-1 or 2-1-1.

Make Your Facebook Account Private
From Wired How-To Wiki
Facebook recently (in December, 2009) unveiled a radically revamped set of privacy controls. They are better and more forward-thinking than its previous efforts, but Facebook made one very important change in late 2009: almost all user data is now made public by default.
Facebook users were asked to verify their privacy settings using Facebook's "Privacy transition tool" that recommended some default settings. Oddly, the suggested defaults made most profile settings, photo uploads, status updates and application settings viewable by everyone on the internet. This means the whole world could see everything Facebook users post if they didn't change the defaults.
For more details on these privacy changes, see the Electronic Frontier Foundation's overview.
The most invasive part of the policy for most people will be the public search results settings. This means if they post something and later decide they want to switch to a private profile, those embarrassing posts will remain in search engine indexes.
The good news is that Facebook actually now offers more fine-grained controls over which bits of personal information you share than ever before. The bad news is that the high level of control makes preserving your privacy a fairly complex process. There isn't a simple check box that says "make my profile private."
But fear not, we've got you covered. Follow these instructions below.
This article is part of a wiki anyone can edit. If you have advice to add, log in and contribute.
Locking down your profile
Head to your privacy settings under the Account menu at the upper right corner of your Facebook page.
On the privacy settings page, you'll see five categories: Profile, Contact Information, Applications and Websites, Search and Block List.
Start at the top with Profile information and change all the options to "Friends." This will stop people you don't know from accessing any of your personal data.
Do the same for your contact information, most of which, thankfully, still defaults to Only Friends.
Also be aware that each setting has a "customize" option which allows you to, for example, set your information to "visible only to friends" but also block certain "friends" (like your mom, so she won't see the drunken, late night rants you post on your Wall).
Using Friend Lists
A good practice is to group all your contacts in Facebook. To do that, you can use Friend Lists.
To create a Friend List, go to the Edit Friends option under the Account menu, then select the Friends option beneath the Lists group on the left side of the screen. In the new page select "Create New List" at the top to display a window where you can type a name for your new list and select which friends belong to it.
Besides creating obvious lists (such as Family, Good Friends, Classmates, etc.) it would be recommended that you create a "Nothing to do with me" list, so you can add people that doesn't have a close relation to you to this category.
Now you can go back to the Privacy Settings option and use the lists to make visible or hide anything in your profile to that group of people by using custom settings. And remember to use the "Nothing to do" list to hide the sensitive elements of your profile from strange eyes.
Applications and outside data
What you post to Facebook doesn't just show up on Facebook anymore. Your status updates and photos go out over a vast network of connected websites and applications, all linked together through Facebook Connect and Facebook's App Platform.
This is one area that many people overlook, but it has perhaps the greatest potential to unwittingly leak information about you.
Head to the "Applications and Websites" area of Privacy Settings and adjust the settings to "Friends Only."
But there's more. Click the "Edit Settings" button for the "What your friends can share about you" section and uncheck anything you aren't comfortable seeing leak out of Facebook.
Finally, head to the "Search" section of your Privacy Settings and uncheck the box that allows search engines to index your posts. That way, when people search for your name on the internet, they only see public content, and not anything you wrote to your friends on Facebook. Likewise, when people run image searches for you on web search engines, they won't see any Facebook photos.
It takes a little bit of work to lock your data down. But if you'd like to keep Facebook the private, for-your-eyes-only social network it once was, you still can. You want to avoid disaster recovery software if you can.
