* "A huge work of massive ambition."—Publishers Weekly, Starred
It has been a year of change since Gemma Doyle arrived at the foreboding Spence Academy. Her mother murdered, her father alaudanum addict, Gemma has relied on an unsuspected strength and has discovered an ability to travel to an enchanted world called the realms, where dark magic runs wild. Despite certain peril, Gemma has bound the magic to herself and forged unlikely new alliances. Now, as Gemma approaches her London debut, the time has come to test these bonds.
The Order—the mysterious group her mother was once part of—is grappling for control of the realms, as is the Rakshana. Spence's burned East Wing is being rebuilt, but why now? Gemma and her friends see Pippa, but she is not the same. And their friendship faces its gravest trial as Gemma must decide once and for all what role she is meant for.

Review, People, December 24, 2007:
"This is a rare treat that offers a bit of everythingromance, magic, history, Gothic intrigueand delivers on all of it in 819 beautifully crafted pages."
The concluding volume in the trilogy begun in A Great and Terrible Beautyis a huge work of massive ambition, an undertaking that involves the plaiting and tying off a dozen plot threads-impending war in the realms and heroine Gemma Doyle's control of its magic being the central thread but, perhaps, not the most interesting. In chronicling Gemma's first year at Spence Academy, Bray has, over three books, widened her canvas from finishing school to fin-de-siècle London, weaving in the defining movements of the era-labor strikes over factory conditions, suffrage, the "radical" Impressionists just across the Channel, even fashion trends like bloomers for women daring enough to ride bicycles. Gemma is both buffeted and bolstered by her exposure to these developments, and readers experience how they shape her burgeoning understanding of who she is and who she may become. Some of Gemma's struggle is about power. As exalted as she is within the realms for her role as High Priestess of the secret society, her "otherness" marks her as unsuitable for proper Victorian circles. Gemma chafes not only at the physical constraints of a corset but at the myriad restrictions placed on women. Her quest is to break free, but at what cost? Bray poses these vital questions without sacrificing the gothic undertones of the previous volumes-the body count is high, and the deaths, gruesome. That creepiness is balanced by the fully realized company of players, including the insufferable headmistress, Mrs. Nightwing, the acid-tongued Felicity Worthington, hunky heartthrob Kartik and, of course, Gemma herself, a heroine readily embraced. Ages 14-up. (Dec.)Copyright 2007 Reed Business Information
March 1896
There is a particular circle of hell not mentioned in Dante's famous book. It is called comportment, and it exists in schools for young ladies across the empire. I do not know how it feels to be thrown into a lake of fire. I am sure it isn't pleasant. But I can say with all certainty that walking the length of a ballroom with a book upon one's head and a backboard strapped to one's back while imprisoned in a tight corset, layers of petticoats, and shoes that pinch is a form of torture even Mr. Alighieri would find too hideous to document in his Inferno.
"Let us keep our eyes trained toward heaven, girls," our headmistress, Mrs. Nightwing, pleads as we attempt our slow march across the floor, heads held high, arms out like ballerinas.
The loops of the backboard chafe the sides of my arms. The block of wood is unyielding, and I am forced to stand as stiff as the guards at Buckingham Palace. My neck aches with the effort. Come May, I shall make my debut a full year early, for it has been decided by all parties involved that at nearly seventeen I am ready and that it would do me good to have my season now. I shall wear beautiful gowns, attend lavish parties, and dance with handsome gentlemenif I survive my training. At present, that outcome is very much in doubt.
Mrs. Nightwing paces the length of the ballroom. Her stiff skirts whisk-whisk across the floor as if to rebuke it for lying there. All the while she barks orders like Admiral Nelson himself. "Heads held high!
Do not smile, Miss Hawthorne! Serene, somber expressions! Empty your minds!"
I strain to keep my face a blank canvas. My spine aches. My left arm, held out to the side for what seems hours, trembles with the effort.
"And curtsy . . ."
Like falling souffles, we drop low, trying desperately not to lose our balance. Mrs. Nightwing does not give the order to rise. My legs shake with exhaustion. I cannot manage it. I stumble forward. The book tumbles from my head and lands on the floor with a resounding thud. We have done this four times, and four times I have failed in some fashion. Mrs. Nightwing's boots stop inches from my disgraced form.
"Miss Doyle, may I remind you that this is the court, and you are curtsying to your sovereign, not performing in the Folies Bergere?"
"Yes, Mrs. Nightwing," I say sheepishly.
It is hopeless. I shall never curtsy without falling. I shall lie sprawled upon the gleaming floors of Buckingham Palace like a disgraceful stain of a girl, my nose resting upon the boot of the Queen. I shall be the talk of the season, whispered about behind open fans. No doubt every man will avoid me like typhus.
"Miss Temple, perhaps you will demonstrate the proper curtsy for us?"
Without ado, Cecily Temple, She Who Can Do No Wrong, settles to the floor in a long, slow, graceful arc that seems to defy gravity. It is a thing of beauty. I am hideously jealous.
"Thank you, Miss Temple."
Yes, thank you, you little demon beast. May you marry a man who eats garlic with every meal.
"Now, let us" Mrs. Nightwing is interrupted by loud banging. She closes her eyes tightly against the noise.
"Mrs. Nightwing," Elizabeth whines. "How can we possibly concentrate on our form with such a terrible racket coming from the East Wing?"
Mrs. Nightwing is in no humor for our complaining. She takes a deep breath and clasps her hands at her waist, her head held high.
"We shall carry on, like England herself. If she could withstand Cromwell, the Wars of the Roses, and the French, surely you may overlook a bit of hammering. Think how lovely the East Wing shall be when it is completed. We shall try againsteady! All eyes are upon you! It won't do to scurry to
Her Majesty like a timid church mouse."
I often imagine what sort of position Nightwing might seek out were she not currently torturing us as headmistress of Spence Academy for Young Ladies. Dear Sirs, her letter might begin. I am writing to inquire about your advert for the position of Balloon Popper. I have a hatpin that will do the trick neatly and bring about the wails of small children everywhere. My former charges will attest to the fact that I rarely smile, never laugh, and can steal the joy from any room simply by entering and bestowing upon it my unique sense of utter gloom and despair. My references in this matter are impeccable. If you have not fallen into a state of deep melancholia simply by reading my letter, please respond to Mrs. Nightwing (I have a Christian name but no one ever has leave to use it) in care of Spence Academy for Young Ladies. If you cannot be troubled to find the address on your own, you are not trying your very best. Sincerely, Mrs. Nightwing.
"Miss Doyle! What is that insipid smile you're wearing? Have I said something that amuses you?" Mrs. Nightwing's admonishment brings a flush to my cheeks. The other girls giggle.
We glide across the floor, trying our best to ignore the hammering and the shouts. The noise isn't what distracts us. It is the knowledge that there are men here, one floor above us, that keeps us jittery and light.
"Perhaps we could see the progress they've made, Mrs. Nightwing? How extraordinary it must be," Felicity Worthington suggests with a sweetness bordering on pure syrup. Only Felicity would be so bold as to suggest this. She is too daring by half. She is also one of my only allies here at Spence.
"The workmen do not need girls underfoot, as they are already behind schedule," Mrs. Nightwing says. "Heads up, if you please! And"
A loud bang sounds from above. The sudden noise makes us jump. Even Mrs. Nightwing lets out a "Merciful heavens!" Elizabeth, who is nothing more than a nervous condition disguised as a debutante, yelps and grabs hold of Cecily.
"Oh, Mrs. Nightwing!" Elizabeth cries.
We look to our headmistress hopefully.
Mrs. Nightwing exhales through disapproving lips. "Very well. We shall adjourn for the present. Let us take the air to restore the roses to our cheeks."
"Might we bring our paper and sketch the progress on the East Wing?" I suggest. "It would make a fine record."
Mrs. Nightwing favors me with a rare smile. "A most excellent suggestion, Miss Doyle. Very well, then. Gather your paper and pencils. I shall send Brigid with you. Don your coats. And walk, if you please."
We abandon our backboards along with our decorum, racing for the stairs and the promise of freedom, however temporary it may be.
"Walk!" Mrs. Nightwing shouts. When we cannot seem to heed her advice, she bellows after us that we are savages not fit for marriage. She adds that we shall be the shame of the school and something else besides, but we are down the first flight of stairs, and her words cannot touch us.

Retinaldehyde represses adipogenesis and diet-induced obesity.
Cardiovascular Division, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts 02115, USA.
The metabolism of vitamin A and the diverse effects of its metabolites are tightly controlled by distinct retinoid-generating enzymes, retinoid-binding proteins and retinoid-activated nuclear receptors. Retinoic acid regulates differentiation and metabolism by activating the retinoic acid receptor and retinoid X receptor (RXR), indirectly influencing RXR heterodimeric partners. Retinoic acid is formed solely from retinaldehyde (Rald), which in turn is derived from vitamin A. Rald currently has no defined biologic role outside the eye. Here we show that Rald is present in rodent fat, binds retinol-binding proteins (CRBP1, RBP4), inhibits adipogenesis and suppresses peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma and RXR responses. In vivo, mice lacking the Rald-catabolizing enzyme retinaldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (Raldh1) resisted diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance and showed increased energy dissipation. In ob/ob mice, administrating Rald or a Raldh inhibitor reduced fat and increased insulin sensitivity. These results identify Rald as a distinct transcriptional regulator of the metabolic responses to a high-fat diet.

Interventions for a
Multicultural Society
Dolores Gallagher-Thompson, Rita Margrave, Ladson Hinton, Patricia Árean, Gayle Iwamasa, and L. McKenzie Zeiss
In the United States at present, a dramatic increase is occurring in the proportion of both the oldest-old (those aged 80 and above) and elders of color, who represent a wide array of culturally, racially, and ethnically distinct groups. According to relatively recent census data, growth in these two categories is expected to be tremendous in the next 20 to 30 years. In fact, it is expected that more than 25% of the population in this country will be age 65 or greater within the next decade or so as the baby boomers advance; and that the overall proportion of non-Hispanic Whites will drop from the current 90% to approximately 60% of the total U.S. population by the year 2030. Hispanic/Latino and Asian American elders are expected to increase at the most rapid rates, while growth in the African American and Native American populations is expected to be much slower (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1992). What this means for clinicians and researchers working with older adults is that there will be more of them to treat; they will generally be older, due to improved health care that is prolonging life (along with increasing access to health care and related insurance amongst all older people); and they are more likely to be non-Caucasian (or non European American, if that term is preferred) than is the case at present. For these reasons, it is imperative that health care personnel begin to appreciate the tremendous heterogeneity of these groups and its implications for clinical and research practice.

This is my third set & brilliant as always. I would not trust anyone else with my lashes. Highly recommended.
Carole is fab! Have tried a lot of treatments and every one of them has been great. Would highly recommend!
Very friendly and informative, lovely setting and the treatment was incredible. My skin feels amazing and the treatment was worth every penny. This is my second time and I will be back for another.
Did not have the original facial I booked for as the therapist recommended a different one for my skin type, and very glad I she did as it was wonderful. Would highly recommend.
Enjoyed this very much. I Would highly recommend for a facial! I am booking in for my next one now!
Quick, precise and nicely done - What more would you want for an eyelash tint? Will be going back for more!
Loved every minute of it. Karen is so nice and friendly and did a fantastic job on my feet which feel and look great! Would highly recommend.
Had many treatments here before but this was my first proper facial and it didn't disappoint! Skin is feeling great this morning! Thanks
Very lovely staff, you feel very comfortable as soon as you walk through the door. My therapist advised me on the colours for my brows & I am very pleased with her suggestion. Overall, very happy & would recommend!

I've been an alum for some time now and have seen TSBC blossom. From the teleconferences, to webinars to Paper Camp (twice)! Why do I keep coming back for more....even after exhibiting at NSS in 2013? Because there is ALWAYS something new to learn. The TSBC community is amazing and I never could have taken the leap without the guidance and tips learned. And my business has grown so much because of it. You cannot put a price on the true value of such a fabulous community of designers. I heart TSBC!
- Julie Stewart, Kiss and Punch Designs
As someone who recently ventured into the world of paper, TSBC was THE best investment that I made. The information and resources that I received from this wonderfully supportive community was paramount to how I planned out my calendar for the upcoming year. Regardless of where you are in your business, TSBC will shed light on a new idea, different perspective, or expert knowledge from the field -- all such helpful tools to help your company thrive. A big thanks and hugs to Katie and all the speakers for cultivating TSBC. I'll be back!
- Patricia Shen, Our Heiday
It's impossible to quantify the impact that TSBC has made to our business. It was the kick in the pants, the knowledge in the noggin and the online support community that has made every challenge that has come our way as small business owners possible to overcome. Sign up! Attend! Win!
- Morgan Calderini + Arley-Rose Torsone, Ladyfingers Letterpress
Paper Camp is a must-do for any aspiring stationer. I couldn't have made a better investment in my business! Not only was it informative and practical, it also gave me a ton of inspiration and drive to take my business to the next level. I'm thrilled to be an alum and now part of the fabulous Tradeshow Bootcamp community.
- Cara Underwood, Underwood Letterpress
This community is really something special. I'm forever grateful for being included. Best money I've ever spent, investing in myself & my business. Paper Camp forever!
- Sara McNally, Constellation & Co.
TSBC is a necessity for anyone even thinking about entering the wholesale stationery business. The panelists and group at TSBC are willing to share their successes and pitfalls in a fun, community atmosphere. I felt very comfortable asking 'stupid' questions and everyone was warm and inviting which was very surprising in a room full of competitors.
I feel confident and way more prepared and I am so glad I attended this intensive workshop. My wife attended the webinar and I attended Paper Camp and personally found the networking and meeting new friends one of the perks of attending a TSBC in-person. If possible, I recommend the latter. The TSBC binder you receive when you attend Paper Camp is so useful and informative. It is now called the 'Tradeshow Bible' in our house. I have it open on my desk at all times and I'm constantly referencing it for advice, vendor recommendations and planning tips.
- Grant Klein, Golden Fox Goods
Tradeshow Bootcamp was a great help and inspiration for me. I have been selling my own jewelry for a few years now and have been to tradeshows on the West Coast but never any in NY. TSBC helped me with understanding all the logistics that go into doing a NY show. In addition, I am new to the stationery world and all the knowledge I gained about industry standards was invaluable. I am so happy to be apart of the TSBC family now. The forum is just amazing I love how the community keeps growing and growing. Thanks again to Katie and everyone else who contributed to the panels!
- Jen Murse, Plastique
I am 110% satisfied with my decision to attend. I can't believe how much I DIDN'T know!
- TSBC alum
The greatest thing I took away from my experience with Tradeshow Bootcamp was direction. In only two days, Paper Camp nurtured confidence and support through discussion and a wealth of applicable knowledge. I not only feel comfortable taking the next step as a growing business, but feel prepared to respond effectively when confronted with set-backs. I firmly believe that I will look back on attending this seminar as a defining moment in my business, my career, and even my life.
-Lindsey Warriner, Warren Tales
What an amazing experience! Our company has been thinking about a move into wholesale since we opened in 2010. After years of walking NSS, we took the leap this year. Having the time to sit down and think about this new aspect of our business every week was invaluable. The additional resources that are a part of the program, in particular the Facebook group, are an amazing community to become a part of. Katie is generous and thoughtful in the construction of the program. I would highly, highly recommend this course to anyone who is considering showing. Three cheers for TSBC!!!
- Morgan Calderini + Arley-Rose Torsone, Ladyfingers Letterpress
TSBC's Paper Camp was a truly worthwhile investment for my small business. The weekend-long course was expertly executed and packed with information for the maker and/or designer looking to take the next step and expand his/her business into wholesale and beyond. When I say packed with information, I mean it- every angle was covered, from a maker's perspective, to a buyer's perspective, to a store owner's perspective. I truly felt that the information conveyed was real talk- no sugarcoating allowed! In addition to providing a wealth of knowledge, Katie and her talented support staff of speakers did everything they could to make it an energetic and engaging weekend filled with fun paper products (it was Paper Camp, after all) and an emphasis on networking with our camper peers.
I feel that no amount of Googling or outside research could equate to what I took away from Paper Camp. If you're serious about taking the next step with your creative small business, definitely consider attending TSBC.
-Stephanie Harvey, exit343design
I can't say enough good things about TSBC! It is a shining beacon of light in the uncharted waters of the world of trade shows! Katie has truly though of everything - all topics that eventually come up as you're preparing for the show are covered explained, and if for some reason that still leaves you with more questions (maybe it's about a particular setup, or a special unique case or problem), TSBC has you covered with the invaluable private facebook group where all your questions will be discussed and answered by tradeshow veterans. Makes the process of getting ready and exhibiting much more assured to proceed boldly! Thanks, Katie!
- Ursula Jaroszewicz, Pepper Press
What you've created with Tradeshow Bootcamp is an amazing resource that just keeps on giving and teaching... from the original recordings and paper resources to the wealth of ongoing information in the alumni forum. Not only have I learned so much and made so many real-life friends from my colleagues, but I have also had the chance to share and give back. It's truly a special series filled with special people who are smart and kind.
- Rebekah Tennis, Wild Ink Press
Thank the paper gods that we found Tradeshow Bootcamp & friends! We had already exhibited in a small tradeshow, but having the resources of the TSBC webinars and the in-person Paper Camp just opened up that many more doors for our wholesale operation. It's really the best info out there and proof that good things grow into their own. It has quickly become an invaluable community of our favorite industry peers and friends. Advice, resources, support--all of it comes with being a TSBC alum. Whether you're just developing your product line or have experience with wholesale accounts already, there's always something to learn from the multiple resource channels of this awesome program.
- Jen Pham-Corbett, Farewell Paperie
I am very honored and proud to be a speaker for TSBC. The greatest thing about being a speaker is realizing we still learn so much every time. TSBC isn't a one time, learn it all, move on type of thing. TSBC is a fluid ever evolving resource that is truly valuable to the first time attendee and the seasoned veteran. Kuddos Katie for a job well done, and a noble desire to bring our amazing community even closer.
- Amber Ellis-Seguine, Flywheel Press
TSBC was a fountain of invaluable information! Hearing from brands in the industry who have actually been through it with real experiences, stories and knowledge was incredible. Being in TSBC was inspiring, motivating and so helpful in setting realistic goals and expectations of what a trade show will be like! Thanks to everyone at TSBC !
-Danni Hong, Oh Hello Friend
I thought I was signing up for a wonderful weekend of Paper Camp in Los Angeles. I knew I was going to learn a lot. But whoa. I had no idea what a wonderful community I was getting myself into. I haven't even attended NSS yet, but already I know that Paper Camp was the single best thing I could have done for myself, for my business in advance of the show. I am working super hard but I am not panicking - which I surely would be by now without the amazing resources of Paper Camp and the ongoing support since.
- Rosanna Kvernmo, Iron Curtain Press
Knowing I was at least a year out from exhibiting at NSS, I went into the Paper Camp to get an idea of what to expect. I left with so much more than that!! I was inspired from the creative sense and motivated from the business sense by each and every person in the room. The variety of perspectives was invaluable. The entire workshop was organized, relevant and fun!! I would sign up again in a heartbeat. The network of talented people you get to be a part of as alumni is FANTASTIC - I continue to learn every day from all of them. It is so unique to be a part of a group who genuinely care about the success of all their peers... I love it!
- Melissa Copeland, Franny Bee Designs
Even though I've been working full-time on building my stationery business for more than four years, doing a trade show is a huge leap to make. TSBC is like having two very important things for trade show success. The first is a springboard full of information to help you launch yourself into this crazy process. The second is a security blanket made up of newbies and alumni that support you in whatever way you might need. TSBC is well worth the investment!
- Cyn Thomas, RiverDog Prints
It's hard to say what these workshops did NOT cover. Such a great roundup of what you need to do to prepare for a tradeshow. I love that you get perspectives and insight from exhibitors who had shown for the first time, retailers, veterans, and sales reps. The facebook group allows you to stay in touch with this great community - amazing, amazing!!
- Cindy LaColla, Cynla
TSBC really helped prepare me for my first trade show experience. As a newbie there's so much to learn it can be overwhelming, but Tradeshow Bootcamp really helped take a lot of the guess work out. I also love being a part of the alumni community which allows me to ask professional advice and network within this amazing group of stationers. Worth every penny!
- Shayna Norwood, Steel Petal Press
The weekend that I spent at Tradeshow Bootcamp was amazing. Packed full of information from experienced tradeshow exhibitors, it has made exhibiting at NSS feel much less intimidating. I think one of the most valuable features is the access you get to the TSBC facebook group which has been an incredible ongoing resource of up to the minute updates, reminders and information. A great investment without question.
- Sarah Hodges, Cake for Charlie
TSBC was like a comforting best friend that held my hand in preparation for NSS, my first trade show ever. The information given made me feel prepared and ready for the big event. And it continues to help a year later. With the Facebook page, I know if I need some help with almost any biz related question, there will be someone in our community who will help. INVALUABLE!
- Liz Glasgow, The White Cabinet
11,000 buyers, 800 exhibiting companies, 300 members of the press and not a nervous bone in my body -- that's what Tradeshow Bootcamp did for The Pampered Pixel's debut at the National Stationery Show.
- Roxanne Davis, The Pampered Pixel
I have walked NSS a couple of times in past years, and felt sort of good about exhibiting my line for the first time in 2014. That being said, I knew I could learn a lot at TSBC. I was not wrong. All the thoughts swirling around in my giant head now are turning into a much more concise plan. Katie and all of the other speakers are so candid about their specific experiences, and so willing to help on any and all levels, whatever a student's specific goals may be. I am beyond thrilled to be included in the TSBC community, and look forward to learning more and pushing myself toward my 2014 goals with the best support group around as a backbone. NSS 2014, get ready.
-Adam Smith, Life is Funny Press
Signing up for the TSBC was one of the best decisions we made! We were planning on attending the NSS 2012 and wanted to be sure we were going into being a first time exhibitor with eyes wide open. Because of the in-depth coverage of every detail pertaining to exhibiting, we realized we were just not quite ready. These classes are more valuable than words can express! The wisdom and insight passed on was amazing. As a bonus, we are so excited to meet our new friends in the industry at the NSS this month while we walk the show. I will be anxious to squeeze all of them tight knowing how much work and sleepless nights they put into showcasing their beautiful work! We plan on exhibiting in 2013 and taking the classes again.
- Heidi Miller, Mango Ink
5 stars! I signed up for TSBC not knowing what to expect. After session 1 I was sold! The dial in sessions were so helpful and the opportunity of the question and answer at the end were a nice surprise. To top it all off, the Facebook page offered a nice platform for the conversations to continue. It is nice to know that when you're in a pinch and need someone to offer advice or guidance, they are just a click away. I highly recommend TSBC to all exhibitors, new and seasoned!
- Shelley Seguinot, Im Inkpressed
We had been thinking of exhibiting at the National Stationery Show and had walked it once, but everything about being an actual exhibitor at the show was very vague...until TSBC! Every question was answered, even the ones we hadn't thought of yet. The webinars gave us a solid foundation and we arrived at NSS as prepared as we could be, knowing what to expect thanks to the advice from the alumni on the TBSC webinars. I can't thank TSBC enough (plus, the alumni Facebook group is awesome!).
- Chantal Bennett, Papillion Press
The details on the preparation of the booth I think was invaluable. They gave tips on things to avoid, be prepared for, items you will need, a long don't do list but in a tone that was positive and reassuring that something will go wrong - but go with the flow!
- TSBC alum
Taking part in Tradeshow Bootcamp was the best investment I made in preparing for the National Stationery Show. I went into my first tradeshow feeling confident and prepared directly because of the knowledge I gained in TSBC sessions. I learned everything from the nitty gritty details of booth design and the types of questions buyers will ask to how to best market yourself and ways follow-up with retailers post-show. Katie curated an excellent series of speakers who are leaders in their respective areas. I also found the Facebook group to be an invaluable resource for asking questions, learning more about the industry, and getting to know other designers. I highly recommend TSBC to anyone considering a tradeshow in their future!
- Brannon Cullum, Happy Cactus Designs
TSBC was single-handedly the most helpful part of my NSS planning, and I don't know if I would have maintained my sanity this long without the encouragement and insight that all the other speakers offered.
-Stephanie Colestock, Pink Orchid Press
I would never have found the information I got there, even with all my googling. Wow. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and wisdom!
- TSBC alum
I took a leap of faith and plunked down my money to exhibit at the National Stationery Show - a first time exhibitor with a less than two year old business! Thank goodness I found Tradeshow Bootcamp. This series taught me so much, got me as prepared as I could be and helped make my first year at NSS a huge success. Thank you Katie! I couldn't have done it without you!
- Liz Glasgow, The White Cabinet
TSBC was extremely valuable for a first-timer like myself to learn the nitty-gritty details about how to actually participate in a tradeshow - like cost, time, what goes into set-up - rather than just the generics you hear (Oh, it's a lot of work, but worth it!). I also felt a strong sense of community - that the participants were willing to support one another through the sharing of experiences and it was okay to ask questions, even dumb ones!
- TSBC alum
I learned so much from this Bootcamp. I will be signing up again, since I mainly took the last one to gain general procedural info, and now might actually take the dive for 2012. Highly recommend and feel it made me so much more aware of not only the NSS, but of the wonderful & helpful folks in the Greeting Card industry. THANK YOU for putting this together.
- Katie Daniels, Concrete Lace
Thanks for a great Spring 2012 TSBC teleconference series as well as the LA Intensive Workshop! It is evident a lot of time and energy has been put into these, very appreciative of your organization & knowledge.
- Lindsay Kath, Branch & Cotton
Thank you for the program. Like all of us, I'm spending a ton on this booth and am trying to save where I can, but I didn't hesitate for a moment when deciding to take the program and I wasn't in the least disappointed
- TSBC alum
Tradeshow Bootcamp is one of the best tools I used to prepare for the National Stationery Show. No one is trying to sell you products or make you anxious about the rules. These are real life exhibitors who have been there and know what it's like to worry about walls and buyers. They give you real life tips that made me feel prepared and confident to answer various questions. What other seminar offers the point of view of top buyers and bloggers? Where else can you learn the ins and outs of putting a booth together without someone selling you something you really don't need? Katie has a great approach to each seminar and everything is organized extremely well. One of the best parts is that after each seminar you receive notes with resources and even a recording of the call. I found this extremely helpful as I prepped late into the night and could refresh my memory with helpful insight and tips!
- Claudia Smith, Fig. 2 Design
This was AWESOME! it was so incredibly helpful to hear candid insight and experiences from our peers that have been thru the whole thing before. i highly recommend signing up for the next one if katie decides to do another series! she did a fantastic job of selecting exhibitors and retailers with the inside scoop and relevant info to share. the calls went super smooth and always got extra time for all of our crazy questions! love it and definitely recommend to anyone considering exhibiting!
- Robyn Wehab, Meant To Be Sent
This was so great and I'm so glad I found out about TSBC. The NSS is daunting from a first-timer perspective and after the workshops I feel prepared and much more confident. Thank you!
- TSBC alum
I learned SO much from each and every workshop and appreciated the ability to get inside info about the logistics behind doing a tradeshow, the freedom to ask questions to experts, and the opportunity to network with other designers and professionals in the industry!
- TSBC alum
Tradeshow Bootcamp has been such an invaluable resource to me during the past year! I'm so thankful for the speaker's approachable nature and the savvy bootcamp classes. Thank you thank you!
- Catherine Polacek, Printerette Press
Thanks for all the great info! I learned more than I could have imagined. I definitely feel like I can go into my first NSS prepared!

I want yo know if it's similar in someway to Cerruti 1881 femme...I don't like Cerruti on my skin..but I'm thinking to blind buy this Givenchy...I want something for summer but special and that last, and not the normal acquatic thing.
I love citrus...I don't like herbal smell.
Glorious! Tangerine simply GLOWS in this refreshing, warm, citric fragrance. Grapefruit turns to kitty pee on my skin and strong lemon just reminds me of furniture polish but tangerine, oh my goodness! I'd never imagined a citrus could smell so wonderful.
But make no mistake, this is no body splash citrus. No indeed. Marigold contributes a bit of a bitter bite and the orange blossom and jasmine add a natural, floral sweetness. Could this be a gourmand fruity floral?
I have no experience with the original Extravagance d'Amarige so I cannot compare but I can say that Les Parfums Mythiques version is delicious. Sweet but not candy sweet and floral but not simply floral. I do sense the depth of amber and woody notes but truly, this is ALL about the tangerine. Yum.
Light enough for warm & hot weather daytime wear but complex enough for nighttime, too. Longevity is 6-8 hours and sillage sufficient to get the wearer noticed. Highly, HIGHLY recommended!
An interesting fragrance & one that has taught me just how important it is to test on your skin - don't rely on a tester strip!! On the tester strip, this smelt glorious...almost melon-like with a heady jasmine note that was really enticing. On my skin, however, the citrus is much more prominent from the beginning, then it morphs into a soapy jasmine with just a tinge of sharpness from the citrus, that comes & goes on the dry down. I find it endlessly fascinating how different fragrances perform on different skins, temperatures, etc.
***edited to add***
Interestingly, I tried this layered with Pure Honey by Kim Kardashian...& it removed the soapy note altogether. Now I get a gloriously warm citrus note. The almost melon-fragrance I was detecting on the tester strip is back. The jasmine has been dialled back a bit but I'm really liking the resulting fruity floral fragrance. Pure Honey just gives a lovely warm, sweet background to Extravagence. No soap; no sharpness. Definitely a good layering contender to see what else can be teased out of this.
It's the perfect blend of fresh greens, flowers and citrus (Tangerine). I'm fascinated by this one. It's just beautiful and makes me look forward to wearing this more in the warmer months.
Received a bottle today and it's the "perfect match " ! Yummy, that scent it is wonderful. My skin just loves this fragrance and so does my nose. Wow, I am in love with my wrist right now !
I use to own a vintage extravagance d'amarige, it was wonderful just not me, it was citrusy but it was somewhat moody and tame with more wood and undertone as well, more complex.
I bought this version on a whim when the a price was marked too low to pass up a givenchy, i found this absolutely delightful and joyous, the same feeling miss dior cherie invokes in me, neither composition projects a lot of complexity or thrilling notes. Upon first sniff i thought this was a mouthwatering grapefruit, with more discernment, the tangerine notes and and Marigold can be separated,the newer formulation was a bit sweeter than the former there s not much to describe to be honest, except it was the happiest and most uplifting scent ive comed across, longevity was good as well. A summer must.
Este intradevar "EXTRAVAGANCE" si "MISTIHIQUE" .
miroase foarte bine usor si de lunga durata mai ales pe parul curat spalat persista si o zi, seamana foarte bine cu varianta mai veche. Este un Givenchy for women
adevarat...eu mai vreau sa comand. O iubesc!!
Interesting thoughts/ feelings a perfumer can bring on mind. I feel like an artist when wearing Les Parfums Mythiques Extravagance. I have weared this now for two days and have a total artist feel. Only Beret and brush is missing atm. ;)
I'm not a big fan of greens, but I find Les Parfums Mythiques - Extravagance d'Amarige really great.
It's green without getting too bitter or tart or sour.
A gentle, slightly floral kind of green.
It reminds me in character of my favourite for spring: Pur Desir de Mimosa by Yves Rocher.
I've smelled the original long time ago. It was more complex and more demanding. This version is softer and easier to wear.
Staying power of over 5 hours on my skin and not too big sillage makes it a good candidate for my spring scent. If only I could meet it again...
Reformulated, sadly. It is more broad specter and probably will attract more fans then the original one, due to better wear-ability. The heart of old Extravagance disappeared, leaving us with a more woodsy, slightly prim composition. I was straining my nose to sniff out the old marigold goodness, but it`s been mercilessly split into atoms.
If one would forget the name and imagine that it`s a completely new scent, all kinds of possibilities to wear it open up. The dry down notes are very classy, a herbaceous mist with a milky dew accord.
I used to love Givenchy Extravagance d'Amarige back in 90's, and remember recieving a lot of positive compliments on it. I would say it's a spicy-green-citrusy scent. The wild strawberry note gently comes through from green-floral base. Lovely summer fragrance. I liked it more than the original Amarige.
Extravagance d'Amarige is a discontinued fragrance, and I was thrilled about the relaunch of Les Parfums Mythiques - Extravagance d'Amarige
I purchased it without testing, but to my dissapontment it's not the same. It lacks of a depth,and staying power of the original . This rather smells like a nic,e cool, slightly flowery lemon sorbet on my skin.
Maybe it is that my body chemistry has changed, or I just remember the original one more complex and yet sexy.
Anyway Iam wearing it, and this is a fresh, uplifting scent for hot and humid summer days.Need to be reapplied quite often though
It's so green and fresh, but the original Extravagance d'Amarige better. It isn't long lasting. I like tangerine and jasmine, but in this perfume not too determining.

Fixed PriceDelivery by February 1, 2013
Looking for someone to help design and create an iPhone application for our web-based company. We need someone that can not only create it but can help with the concept as well.
We are a baby planning/Maternity concierge company and we are looking to develop an app that caters to expectant and postpartum families. We are currently writing a guide/manual for expectant parents and we are thinking an app that is similar to the philosophy behind our manual would be much more accessible and enjoyable for parents. Parents would be able to manage multiple things with the app, like their babies schedules, their professional hires (nannies, babysitters, doulas, etc.) and things like that.
We are looking for a designer that can help us develop our idea as well as the actual app. We'd like something done in the next couple months, but as soon as possible.

|There are only minor issues which should be addressed by the DOE/project participants prior to the registration of the project.
|Additional information
1) 1. Page 64 of the VR states that although the PP had evaluated the project in 2003 and realized the need for CDM benefits, the final investment decision was taken only in October 2005, because several approvals, which were required to go ahead with the project implementation, were not received. In fact, the most important approval, viz., Environment and Forest clearances was received only in November 2005.Hence, the investment decision was taken only when the PP received an indication that Environment and Forest clearance will be accorded shortly as without that approval, the project cannot be implemented However according to the information available in the public domain including the Group Companys website (Jaypee Group), the Environment and Forest clearance was accorded to the project activity in 2002. Please refer to: http://www.constructionupdate.com/News.aspx?nId=GdlmDKFR0sXWCgTPnV+YGg== and
In line with this, the DOE shall further justify the why the start date of the project is not considered 9th July 2003 . Please refer to CDM Glossary of terms (p 28) ,VVM version 1.2, paragraph 99..
2) In line with issue 1, if the DOE considers any change in the start date of the project activity, the DOE shall subsequently validate the prior consideration, real and continuing action . Please refer to paragraph 102 (b), VVM version 1.2..
3) The DOE is requested to clarify how it validated that the input values used in the Project IRR calculations were valid and applicable at the time of the investment decision given that the input values were sourced from an ICICI bank letter dated 05 January 2009 and the investment decision was taken before, on 26 October 2005. In doing so the DOE shall provide detailed sources (eg: reports/documents/certificates etc) of the input values used in the Project IRR calculation against which the bank provided the financial closure for the project activity on 30thMarch 2006.. Please refer to paragraph 6 of EB 51, Annex 58,paragraph 110 of VVM v01.2.

After three years my legs are bigger than I want. I can exceed the tolerance of my tendons so its fairly pointless. Big myscles I can't fully utilize.
I once asked a guy at our gym who was doing calf raises with 1000 lbs. why he used to much weight. He said, "Gotta stimulate 'em." So true.
I have chronic patellar tendonitis in my knees. (It's currently dormant and I can generally do what I want to without pain, but certain things can trigger its return). I've found that cranking at high power and low cadence too much aggravates this condition. However, increasing muscular stength seems to protect against this happening, both in my personal experience and what I have heard/read. Strengthening my legs through squats and other exercises, as prescribed by my PT, was a key part of recovery. I also did, and continue to do, a lot of quad and hamstring stretches. Based on this experience, I don't think having strong muscles causes tendon pain. It can be caused by having tight muscles, or biomechanical issues.
Has anyone tried a HIIT style of training before for leg strength? Didn't see that mentioned in this thread yet..
It couldn't hurt to do some regular stretching for the knee pain. I didn't mention it before, but I did have some pain in the quadriceps tendon as well, but more in the patellar tendon. I was instructed to do a session of 3 x (30 sec quad stretch + 30 sec hamstring stretch) multiple times per day when I was having regular pain. Now I do it once or twice a day unless I'm feeling some pain (unusual) or my muscles just feel really tight. I have no experience with ankles, but if it's really tendon pain then stretching calves/shins might help.
+1 on foam rolling
I only do it when I feel that I need it. If my quads, hip flexors, or IT band get overly tight and sore, it translates into knee pain.
I foam roll for my hip flexors and it's quite effective at that. The key is to fully relax on the roller, don't fight it. It hurts but will breakdown all kinds of problem areas.

Hate, hate, hate, hate the idea...
They beat #7 Georgia Tech this past weekend..
Almost Beating Alabama in the '01 Independence Bowl was GREAT. (and yes we did beat them, that FG was Good - watch the replay).
That game set up a Great '02 run that got ISU to #9 in the Polls. Everyone thought Alababama was going to smack us around and ISU ended up smacking Alababma around.
I think this team and this coaching staff is ready for a good opponent. NAVY will be very tough, but I would also like to see us match up vs Georgia.
Originally Posted by huntt26

I agree I just didn't wanna be the first one to say it!
Georgia would be pretty comparable, in my mind, to Alabama when we played them in the Independence Bowl. I think a win would be tough, but huge. Why the hell not? Bring on them Bulldogs!
I would love a shot at Georgia, send us to Shreveport baby!
Sounds fun, but dont like our chances
Georgia has been really up and down. I think they have had some injuries (Green was out for some time wasnt he?)
I think we've faced worse bowl matchups, such as TCU in Houston and Boise St in Boise. We'd probably be pretty large dogs, but if there's one thing comforting it's that Georgia statistically is entirely average. Let's just say I'd much rather face Georgia than South Carolina.
"That's what I do. I drink, and I know things." - Tyrion Lannister
"Success is just failure that hasn't happened yet." - life advice from Latrell Spreewell
The game atmosphere with Georgia would be one of the best (if not the best) in recent ISU bowl history.
Playing an SEC team > Playing Navy. And yes thats even if we get killed.

Spacious park with spotless bathrooms, showers, pools and laundry room. Roomy level sites with excellent utilities and good Wi-Fi. Many seasonal campers, but all units and sites well maintained. We stayed in rear of the park on top of the hill and near pool, showers and bathrooms. Huge and beautiful log home on premises is used as the community center containing library, kitchen, TV room, and video and game room. Small lake/large pond and paddle boats available, but very weedy. Pool was great but crowded. Nice quiet place with space to spread out. - wombatman

This is a very nice family campground off the beaten path. The owners keep the campground very clean. Hot clean showers. Very nice playground area, including shuffleboard and volleyball. They had a few boats for rent. They had a nice campstore and a barn with some arcade games, ping pong, and a pool table. We stayed in the campsites right across from the playground and they were nice size lots, grassy, and plenty of shade. We would definitely camp here again. - redheadmichigan

Great place to spend a night, week, month, or the entire season. Large roomy sites with green grass and concrete pads. All interior roads are paved. Everyone is very friendly. Facilities are excellent. Easy access to Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo and an easy drive to the Lake Michigan lakeshore. Only two cons are there is some pretty constant freeway noise if you are near the front and the Wi-Fi tends to go out at least one a week. - jprisbe

text: I found a very old desktop in my library. It was dead and not used for long time. The model says something IBM MT 2199. Looks really big with vertical layout. The desktop seems to function well. I had cleaned up stuff and turned it on. It was bit tough during the starting hours but anyhow I was lucky to get the display on a old 14" CRT monitor. I think by a fresh bios update this system might work well and can be used. It has rightnow a 40GB drive and I can use this by some older Linux version or Windows NT. I do not think it can withstand higher than that. I am also trying to find what is the actual specification. The system is big enough, with green board and cpu that looks alien. It has Intel logo on it. Does anyone has any information on this system. Also it will be nice if someone can help me to find the bios update for this system. Or else the system is a crap.

This recipe is a great holiday tradition for my husband and I. Over the past few years we have enjoyed so many compliments that we have started making the recipe and giving the cookies as gifts. Now, when we visit family and friends for the holidays, they always ask, "Where are the cowboy cookies?" **This dough is also great to store in the refrigerator and bake a couple of dozen at a time.
This is the best cookie recipe I have ever had, and I usually don't like coconut and pecans on cookies. I sent some to work with my husband, and he said they were gobbled down quickly. I plan on making them again for Christmas.
These are great! Makes alot and everyone who tries them raves about them. Thanks for submitting!
This will now be my new christmas cookie. Everyone who has tried it, loved it. I want to thank you for submitting it!!!
