text: In the late 1950s Sofia Loren became one of the few known Italian celebrities in the United States. By then, Hollywood had triumphantly inducted her in its collection of stars; the popular magazine Look dedicated an August 1957 cover to her, hailing the "Americanization" of the Italian artist. That same month, Egidio Ortona, minister of the Italian embassy in Washington, decided to "borrow" the actress from the set of the film House Boat to honor her with a banquet. In his memoirs he fondly describes this initiative as a "public relations coup." Never had so many Congressmen and White House officials attended a public function at the Italian embassy. Sofia Loren's beauty and glamour seemed to mesmerize Richard Nixon too. Escorted by Ortona, the actress paid an official visit to the vice-president, who gladly accepted her invitation to include Italy in his next state trip to Europe. Several officials in Rome criticized Ortona's decision to give the 22-year-old star so much political exposure. Their objection was justified: Sofia Loren was an excellent emblem of the renewed appeal of Italian popular culture, even of its happy marriage with Hollywood; but her extraordinary "flirt" with Washington's political world highlighted by contrast the inadequacy of Italy's regular diplomatic channels. Like every anecdote, the episode has a symbolic significance. It is only a slight exaggeration to argue that the institutions in Rome were so debunked, the politicians so anonymous, that Italian diplomacy had to resort to the magnetic presence of a famous actress to attract the attention of America's leaders.

Re: Long exposure questions
Turn off long exposure noise reduction in the menu. It takes the same amount of time as the exposure to clean the image.
Same job can be done after in post if you need and your camera will be much faster

I love this product! It's one of those things that you makes you wonder why you haven't heard of them before. Many times I've tried to keep a dream journal and failed, all because I wake up in th darkness of night, too dreary to get up and flip the switch to write down the latest dream. This baby solves that problem! It has a light buit in to the notebook! Duh!

Edwin Broni-Mensah started GiveMeTap back at university. Like many 24 year old guys, the dream of a six-pack* sent him on an epic training journey, which had him drinking 5 litres of water every day.
But like most students, he couldn't afford to buy plastic bottled water & cafes made him feel awkward when he asked for water.
On the other hand, millions of people around the world (like Edwin's parents in Ghana) grow up with no access to clean water at all. He is now on a mission to hydrate the world, one bottle at a time.

lens flare and glare can happen as a result of any light source. a lens hood blocks stray light and improves contrast in your images day or night, indoors and out.
just my 2 cents ...

Two US troops killed in western Iraq as Bremer vows to transfer power as scheduled
Two American troops were killed in fighting in the al-Anbar province in western Iraq, the US military said on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, the U.S. governor of Iraq said Tuesday that the transfer of power to Iraqis must go ahead as scheduled despite the assassination of the president of the U.S.-appointed Iraqi Governing Council in a suicide bombing.
"The terrorists are trying to stop Iraq's march to sovereignty and peace," L. Paul Bremer said at a memorial service for Izzadine Salim, who killed Monday. "They will not succeed. We must continue the political process leading to an interim government next month and to elections next year."
Salim's family as well as members the Governing Council attended the ceremony inside the so-called green zone, which houses the occupation headquarters, The AP reported. (Albawaba.com)

The Journey of the Lamb is a refreshing new look at the book of Revelation and end-time prophecies.
The first part of the book will lead you into a deeper knowledge of the Lord by studying The Lamb as He is revealed to us in chapter five in the book of Revelation. The knowledge of The Lamb and His seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God is the key to understanding the mysteries of the number seven throughout the book of Revelation.
The second part of the book is a study of the end-time prophecies. The prophecies, based on the literal interpretation, are explained in the light of the knowledge of the Lord presented in the first part of the book.
A discussion on the Seed of Christ and its journey from God to the first human, Adam, and on down the entire lineage to Jesus Christ.
A breakdown of the seven Spirits of God and their relation to the seven covenants of God; also their relation to the seven angels and seven churches in the book of Revelation.
The description of The Lamb given in the book of Revelation describes Him as having seven horns and seven eyes, lying on an altar which has a horn on each of the four corners. Interpreting these descriptions literally, the author explains the seven horns of the lamb as being the seven offices of Christ. He explains each one's purpose and authority, all the while pointing to supporting scriptures in the Bible.
The book of Revelation also describes the seven-headed dragon, which is the Devil and Satan. The author explains that the seven-headed dragon opposes the Lamb which has the seven horns and seven eyes. Each head of the dragon opposes one horn of the Lamb. He breaks down each head of the dragon and exposes the evil spirit that dwells there. He names each spirit and tactic of the dragon, at the same time revealing the spiritual weapons used to combat each spirit. All supported by the scriptures.
A look at the Beast, Babylon, and Antichrist talked about in Revelation. The author again interprets these literally and explains how these three, along with the dragon, existed physically as beasts during the times of Noah. Using scriptures, he breaks open and reveals who these three are and their purposes during the end-times.
Charles T. Kerekes was born in Tusnad, Romania, in July 1942. He immigrated to the United States in 1981. In his Christian walk of over 37 years, Charles studied the Word of God relentlessly. He studied it in Hungarian, Romanian, and English. After many years, Charles felt led to write down his biblical studies in this book.

There was a study conducted by Can I Rank, the company is run by former Sedo CEO Matt Bentley, the study looked at the effect keyword domains have on organic search.
The results of CanIRank's research show that high-ranking keyword domains:
Consistently score higher than brand domains in factors related to Website Relevancy, which measures the quality of thematic content on a site, and Website External Relevancy, which measures the use of relevant keywords that link to a site
Score about the same on Page Relevancy and Page External Relevancy, which measure similar factors for a specific page as opposed to an entire site; and
Score much lower on Page Strength and Website Strength, showing that keyword domains rank highly despite having fewer quality links pointing to them.
…keyword domains rank higher because they are more likely to be highly focused on the keyword topic, and they're more likely to have people link to their website using anchor text relevant to the keyword.
The research provides hard evidence that companies could save significant sums – sometimes hundreds of thousands of dollars – by investing in keyword domains despite recent moves by Google to reduce their influence.
After studying more than 10,000 URLs, CanIRank's research found that websites using keyword domain names rank higher than brandable domains and are able to attain top rankings more easily. Websites that contained a matching keyword in their domain name earned a top 10 Google ranking with an average of 35,000 fewer links from other sites, half as much content and keyword usage, and nearly 70 percent lower website strength than those without a matching domain.
Keyword domains have historically played a large role in search engine rankings, but as early as 2011, Google began to talk about dialing down their influence. In 2012, Google announced an algorithm change that it said would reduce low-quality 'exact-match' domains in search results. However, there's been little evidence regarding the specific impacts these changes have had.
"CanIRank's competitive analysis software provides unique insight into the influence of over 200 different factors on search engine rankings, and we used that information to help gain a better understanding of how keyword domains perform differently than brandable domains,� said Matt Bentley, founder of CanIRank. "While previous studies have simply looked for a correlation between keyword domains and high rankings, this approach lets us see exactly why keyword domains rank more easily and allows us quantify their benefits to an SEO campaign.�
CanIRank's complete research data, including an explanation of each factor measured, can be found at: http://www.canirank.com/blog/keyword-domains.

Season-high performances in receptions and receiving yards have earned Franklin College senior split end Kyle Linville recognition as the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference's Offensive Player of the Week.
It is the second time this fall that the preseason All-American has been honored by the league office.
Linville had 16 catches for
200 yards in Saturday's 64-14
victory at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology.
He capped Franklin's first two scoring drives with seven- and eight-yard touchdown receptions.
The victory gave the nationally ranked Grizzlies sole possession of first place in the HCAC with a 5-0 league record.
Linville holds every single-season and career receiving record in Franklin gridiron history. He recorded 200 receiving yards in a game for the second time in his career, tallying 204 yards against Anderson University during the 2011 season.
So far this season, Linville has caught 54 passes for 764 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Super satisfied customer!
Upon looking towards buying my first ever car, the negative stereotype of a used car salesman, garnered much anxiety to purchase one.
All these anxious thoughts were allayed soon after walking into Toronto Honda. The salesperson Krishesh was most professional and very helpful in obtaining the perfect car for my wife and I, together with the sales manager, at an excellent price...that was nowhere near the cost to be found after looking at web listings elsewhere! If I didn't buy it myself, I would have thought this deal too good to be true...but I DID buy our dream car at an amazing price!! The whole process to get this great car was super easy and effortless, and can't recommend them higher because they deserve the highest superlatives of accolades in complete honesty!! As a self proclaimed ambassador of good will, I wish others to be just as pleased with their car purchase as we found most especially at Toronto Honda!!!

people believe more in what to seems to be, than to actual truth
La pose et le cadrage sont vraiment parfais Et puis le noir et blanc est encore une fois idéalement choisi
goood !
waaw this is cool love it !! good job
That is true! Beautiful pic, even if you piss me off sometimes
i adore the lines the hair on the arms make. also, the way you hold your face like a mask is very disturbing and very beautiul and very fitting to the title.
WOW Beautiful
what is his eye color? I can't tell for sure, when it's blackandwhite, but he seems to have impressive eye...
That would make a damn good drawing.
Wonderful picture!
Wonderful picture!
i love this
Wow i have to say i love the expression and way his arms are folded. Very very nice
original pose and beautiful compo... Have you tried to desaturate the whole image leaving a spot of colour in the eye of the main subject? I think selective colour would further valorize this beautiful image...
thank you
don't like color spotting effect and i like how lips pop up little bit with rose in the image
don't like color spotting effect and i like how lips pop up little bit with rose in the image

People in business are clueless about selling, and snobbish too. They view it as a grubby activity, though it is vital to revenue.
Modern economies are built by people agreeing to buy and sell for mutual benefit, but there is near-universal disdain for the sales process itself—including the people doing the selling. There is Arthur Miller's pitiful Willy Loman in "Death of a Salesman," the most studied play in American schools, and the real-estate agents of David Mamet's "Glengarry Glen Ross," who, in the words of Philip Delves Boughton, are "victimized, duplicitous, and desperate, Marx's capitalist nightmare made real."
Mr. Delves Broughton is a British journalist who, in 2008, wrote a memoir about getting his midcareer M.B.A. at Harvard Business School. While there he noticed that, as a category of business activity, sales were largely ignored. The curriculum focused on apparently less grubby topics, like finance and leadership. In "The Art of the Sale," Mr. Delves Broughton argues that sales might just be the noblest of business callings.
Defending sales is, well, a tough sell. Mr. Delves Broughton might have quoted from "Dr. Seuss's Sleep Book," a best seller that since 1962 has indoctrinated children to regard selling with suspicion: "Five foot-weary salesmen have laid down their load. / All day they've raced round in the heat, at top speeds, / Unsuccessfully trying to sell Zizzer-Zoof Seeds / Which nobody wants because nobody needs."
Mr. Delves Broughton knows that as customers we have all had terrible sales experiences, but he reminds us of an American tradition—stretching from Benjamin Franklin to Sam Walton—that considers sales the great leveler. "It holds that in a properly functioning democracy, no matter the condition of your birth, if you can sell, you can slice through any obstacles of class, status, or upbringing in a way inconceivable in more hidebound societies," Mr. Delves Broughton writes. "Selling well, in this view, is also a reflection of a healthy character. It means you are the sort of person people are drawn to—hardworking, clean living and trustworthy."
The Art of the Sale
By Philip Delves Broughton
(Penguin Press, 291 pages, $27.95)
Yet in American corporations today there is a "class division," he notes. Many people in business "are clueless about one of the most vital functions, the means by which you actually generate revenue." Salespeople are viewed as some sort of breed apart. "They need conventions in Las Vegas and complex commission structures," Mr. Delves Broughton writes. They must be "goaded to perform and reined in when they sell too hard. They are patronized as 'feet on the street' by those who prefer to imagine that business can be conducted by consultants with dueling PowerPoint presentations."
"The Art of the Sale" profiles a variety of salespeople, defining the sales function broadly. One of his most striking subjects is Abdel Majid Rais El Fenni, who has built a business in Tangier, Morocco, selling high-end rugs and other furnishings, rising above the typical merchant in the souk. Majid (as he is known) keeps "loose robes," meaning that he tries to be open and honest with customers, especially customers who fear that they are going to be hustled or cheated. Not that his customers always drive a hard bargain. Majid once closed a sale quickly after realizing that a tourist from Texas didn't care much about quality so long as he knew he was buying the most expensive rug—that is, he "equated quality with price" and "wanted more than anything to tell visitors to his home that he had bought the best rug in Morocco, at a price to prove it."
Not every sales wizard is in the street or the souk. Mr. Delves Broughton cites Steve Jobs's genius for wedding Apple products to a philosophy of "making the complex simple and living rich lives at the intersection of art and technology." Apple, he says, "inspires more than a commercial relationship. It inspires faith." And the company's fans are happy to pay a premium to be among the faithful.
Sales is a form of persuasion beyond commercial interest, we're told. Nelson Mandela used his long imprisonment in South Africa to learn the language and culture of the ruling white Afrikaners. He advanced his anti-apartheid case by speaking their language—for instance, by discussing rugby, a game generally loathed by the black minority. The Dalai Lama is brilliant at what the book calls "adaptive selling," tailoring his calls for rights in Tibet as circumstances warrant. Sometimes the Dalai Lama presents himself as a modest monk and sometimes as a sophisticated critic of Beijing's politics and policies.
The book closes with a hopeful prediction that technology will create a "new sales culture neither hard nor soft, neither bullying nor sappy, but one that relies on transparent information and enhanced cooperation." He highlights Salesforce.com, the online company that provides software for tracking sales targets, organizing schedules and enabling salespeople to share their success stories. "Technology," he says, "provides the transparency that leads to trust."
"The Art of the Sale" reminds us that the best salespeople are resilient optimists—and that we all engage in sales of one sort or another. Parents sell the idea of eating vegetables to their children; reporters sell their latest story idea to editors; university presidents sell their institution's neediness to potential donors. We might as well approach sales with good cheer and confidence, Mr. Delves Broughton says, not least because the upbeat approach seems to work best.
Theodor Geisel (the real name of Dr. Seuss) may have ridiculed salesmen as flogging something that "nobody needs," but he was a good salesman himself. He crisscrossed the country pushing his product, sometimes arriving for book signings in a helicopter. To date, the Seuss brand has moved about 200 million units. Mr. Delves Broughton, promoting the idea that sales is a virtuous calling, may have a harder time attracting customers, but he makes an appealing, contrarian pitch.
Mr. Crovitz, a former publisher of The Wall Street Journal, is co-founder of Press+, a technology company acquired by RR Donnelley.

Jets vs. Pats pushes AFC East to top
Heated rivalry spotlights AFC East.
At no point in NFL history has the road to winning a Super Bowl become so winding.
The days of top playoff qualifiers making an automatic beeline toward the Lombardi Trophy are over. Only one No. 1 seed — the 2009 New Orleans Saints — has won a championship in the past seven seasons. A No. 2 seed captured only two titles in that span.
In comparison, every Super Bowl winner in the 1990s with the exception of the 1997 Denver Broncos held one of the top two seeds. Those squads were able to reap the benefits of a first-round bye and at least one home playoff game by finishing with one of the their conference's top two regular-season records.
No wild-cards reached the Super Bowl in the first 15 seasons after the league switched to a 12-team playoff format. And then the NFL went topsy-turvy.
In three of the past six seasons, the ultimate champion never hosted a playoff game. The Green Bay Packers became the latest last season. They joined the 2005 Pittsburgh Steelers as the only No. 6 seeds to win a Super Bowl after dispatching their respective conference's top three qualifiers on the road. The 2007 New York Giants did something equally impressive as a No. 5 seed, winning three road games before upsetting previously unbeaten New England in Super Bowl XLII.
So with NFL parity never greater, does winning a division title really matter anymore?
Just ask teams like New Orleans and the New York Jets.
The Saints finished last season with an 11-5 record — four games better than the NFC West champion Seattle Seahawks. But because the Seahawks won their division and New Orleans didn't, the Saints were forced to make the 2,100-mile trip to Seattle on a short week. The raucous crowd support the Seahawks received played a factor in a 41-36 upset victory.
As wild-card qualifiers, the 2009 and 2010 Jets won their first two road playoff contests before falling short in the AFC title game. Jets center Nick Mangold can't say for sure whether hosting those championship games would have given New York the push it needed to reach the Super Bowl.
Mangold, though, doesn't want his team to have to overcome those odds again.
"We really need to get home playoff games," Mangold recently told FOXSports.com. "It's tough going on the road. We know we can win. But if we can have our fans behind us for some of those games, it would be a big help."
For that to happen, the Jets must achieve something they haven't done in almost a decade — win the AFC East. That rough-and-tumble division heads our list of the NFL's best entering the 2011 campaign.
Collective 2010 record: 36-28
2010 playoff teams: New England (14-2), New York Jets (11-5)
Most anticipated 2011 divisional game: The Jets and Patriots play for the first time this season Oct. 9 at Gillette Stadium — the site of New York's 28-21 second-round playoff upset in January. Jets coach Rex Ryan has already added to the pregame hype by taking a potshot at the Patriots during his preseason-opening news conference.
Outlook: New England finished with the NFL's best regular-season record last season and isn't expected to have much of a drop-off — if any — in 2011. Any slippage and the Patriots could be surpassed by the Jets, which believe third-year quarterback Mark Sanchez is ready to become a consistent difference-maker. Miami has a playoff-caliber defense but major questions on offense, especially with quarterback Chad Henne returning as the de facto starter after the Dolphins failed to acquire Kyle Orton from Denver. Buffalo, which was 4-4 in the second half of last season after an 0-8 start, should be improved but the rebuilding process will take more time.
Collective 2010 record: 36-28
2010 playoff teams: Atlanta (13-3), New Orleans (11-5)
Most anticipated 2011 divisional game: The Falcons and Saints don't play for the first time until Week 10 (November 13). But Falcons head coach Mike Smith will surely remember to remind his team that Saints players disrespectfully took celebratory pictures on the field last December after a New Orleans victory in the Georgia Dome.
Outlook: The NFC South was the only division with three 10-game winners last season and it could happen again. With a maturing roster headed by rising third-year quarterback Josh Freeman, the Bucs could be ready to surpass the Falcons or Saints if either stumbles. Carolina still isn't a viable playoff contender but at least there's hope for the future with 2011 No. 1 overall pick Cam Newton now at quarterback and Panthers owner Jerry Richardson spending money on personnel once again.
Collective 2010 record: 33-31
2010 playoff teams: Chicago (11-5), Green Bay (10-6)
Most anticipated 2011 divisional game: The Packers return to the site of their NFC Championship Game victory in Week 3 (Sept. 25) when they play the Bears at Soldier Field. Pressure will be on Bears quarterback Jay Cutler to produce after his controversial bailing in the second half of that title contest with a knee injury.
Outlook: With a young roster and one of the game's best quarterbacks in Aaron Rodgers, the Packers have a bona fide chance for a Super Bowl repeat. The Bears are the top in-division obstacle. Detroit players are talking playoffs — someplace they haven't reached since the 1999 season. But the Lions can't be considered serious contenders until they answer the lingering doubts at quarterback, running back and in the secondary. Minnesota is banking on quarterback Donovan McNabb to reinvent himself a la Brett Favre when he signed with the Vikings in 2009. Even after some significant offseason roster changes, Minnesota still has enough talent to become a dark-horse wild-card contender.
Collective 2010 record: 32-32
2010 playoff teams: Philadelphia (10-6)
Most anticipated 2011 divisional game: New York Giants at Philadelphia in Week 3 (September 25). This will mark the first time the Giants and Eagles have played since Philadelphia's stunning fourth-quarter comeback last December helped fuel a division championship, and kept New York from reaching the postseason.
Outlook: The Eagles are the self-proclaimed "dream team" after some impressive offseason acquisitions that included one of the NFL's top cornerbacks (Nnamdi Asomugha) and pass rushers (Jason Babin). While now on the spot to justify such braggadocio, the Eagles should be a nightmare for their NFC East rivals. The Giants should be Philadelphia's strongest challenge but don't be surprised if Dallas bounces back from last year's 6-10 record. The Cowboys return all their top skill-position players on offense and should be more aggressive defensively under new coordinator Rob Ryan. Washington's unsettled quarterback and running back situations make the Redskins a likely fourth-place finisher.
Collective 2010 record: 33-31
2010 playoff teams: Pittsburgh (12-4), Baltimore (12-4)
Most anticipated 2011 divisional game: We don't have to wait long for the Steelers and Ravens to renew the NFL's second-best rivalry behind the Patriots vs. Jets. Baltimore hosts Pittsburgh in the Sept. 11 season opener. The major pregame storyline: Baltimore's Joe Flacco has never defeated the Steelers when Ben Roethlisberger started at quarterback.
Outlook: The Steelers failed to reach the playoffs in the season after their previous two Super Bowl appearances but there probably won't be much in-division competition for Pittsburgh beyond the Ravens. Cincinnati is expected to start a rookie quarterback in Andy Dalton, while Cleveland is installing new offensive and defensive systems under a first-year head coach (Pat Shurmur) and second-year quarterback (Colt McCoy). The lack of an offseason to work on those schemes could initially slow Shurmur's efforts to make Cleveland relevant again.
Collective 2010 record: 31-33
2010 playoff teams: Kansas City (10-6)
Most anticipated 2011 divisional game: Kansas City at San Diego in Week 3 (Sept. 25). The Chiefs stunned San Diego in last year's season opener, which proved a harbinger for things to come. The Chargers failed to win the AFC West for the first time in four seasons, while Kansas City enjoyed a six-game improvement to capture the title. The Chiefs must now prove that surge wasn't a fluke after a brutal late-season collapse. The Chargers seem ready to rebound after a 2010 campaign marred by injuries, lousy special teams, and contract issues between the team and two of their top players (wide receiver Vincent Jackson and left tackle Marcus McNeill, both of whom are in this year's training camp).
Outlook: Kansas City and San Diego may have competition from Oakland for AFC West supremacy. The Raiders swept the division last year but failed to capitalize with an 8-8 overall record. First-year head coach Hue Jackson must fix the problems that have haunted the Raiders for almost a decade now — inconsistent week-to-week effort and excessive penalties — and hope Jason Campbell is the solution at quarterback. Denver should be better but the John Fox/John Elway regime needs more time cleaning up the mess ex-coach Josh McDaniels left behind.
Collective 2010 record: 30-34
2010 playoff teams: Indianapolis (10-6)
Most anticipated 2011 divisional game: Indianapolis vs. Houston in Week 16 (December 22). Yes, these teams play in the 2011 regular-season opener but that contest probably won't be as telling. By late December, Colts quarterback Peyton Manning should be back to normal after his offseason neck surgery. We'll also know whether the Texans are finally ready to get over the hump after nine seasons without a playoff appearance.
Outlook: Another team to watch in December is Jacksonville. The Jaguars have faded the past two years after being in position to reach the playoffs, putting head coach Jack Del Rio alongside Houston's Gary Kubiak on the hot seat entering the season. Tennessee faces a season of transition with the NFL's longest-tenured head coach (Jeff Fisher) being replaced by Mike Munchak. That adjustment will get increasingly difficult the longer star running back Chris Johnson continues his contract holdout.
Collective 2010 record: 25-39
2010 playoff teams: Seattle (7-9)
Most anticipated 2011 divisional game: Seattle at San Francisco in the Sept. 11 season opener. This matchup could get chippy based on the tension between Seattle's Pete Carroll and San Francisco's Jim Harbaugh while coaching in the Pac-12 ranks. It also will be amusing to watch how long it takes 49ers fans to boo quarterback Alex Smith following an incompletion.
Outlook: There is little reason to expect much progress from the NFL's worst division in 2010. Quarterbacking remains the main problem. Kevin Kolb will provide an upgrade in Arizona, but the Cardinals' mass offseason roster moves may result in a slow start. St. Louis could make a division-title run but that will largely depend on how quickly Sam Bradford becomes comfortable in the new offense that McDaniels has brought as Rams offensive coordinator. Seattle's decision to name Tarvaris Jackson its starter speaks volumes about Charlie Whitehurst, who was considered the heir apparent to Matt Hasselbeck at this time last year. Harbaugh's decision to re-sign Smith was just as curious, but it may buy San Francisco some time until 2011 second-round pick Colin Kapernick is ready to play.

Hi everyone!
Some of you may have notioced a lot of uploads from me recently. Mostly cosplay photos. The amount of photos will be less and less with time. I'm just uploading some of the 2014 work. When I'm done with that, there will be random photos, one each day (when I do upload something)
I'm also forcing myself to take photos of my dolls. The thing is, I recently started to work with something very similar to photographing my BJD. When it comes to work, we can't wait for inspiration and you can't delay just because you're not feeling ok. It has to be done. No excuses. So, forcing myself to take the photos will kind of be a training for my job. The funny thing is that when it's work or when I'm photographing cosplay, there is no bad day. But with my dolls, there is. And I think that I have to be able do overcome that. No bad days at all! To be able to be creative and do a good job anytime. If it's my work I have to be able to do that! And I will be!
Anyway, a lot of blablabla just to let you know that I'll be posting doll photos with more frequency.
And since its my first journal of the year I'll also tell you my plans for 2015:
- Keep working (It's what I'm mainly focused on!)
- Get some new equipment that will make my job easier
- Go to London (probably in october)
- Buy a couple of BJD and a lot of clothing and eyes.
It does not seem a lot of things, but I'll keep the most random ones to myself.
That's all!

Oklahoma Watch: Time on list for state services can seem like lifetime for Oklahoma residents
For some people, time spent on the waiting list to get aid for developmental disabilities can seem like a lifetime.
For others, it practically is a lifetime.
Daniel Ferguson spent many of his short 11 years of life on the waiting list. Just two months after he left the list and was granted access to state-paid services, he died.
When Daniel was born, it was clear he had developmental issues, said his father Rob Ferguson, of Oklahoma City.
"From the first moment, we knew he was going to have a hard time," Ferguson said.
Daniel had a chromosome disorder, cerebral palsy and profound epilepsy, and he was severely delayed in development, Ferguson said.
Daniel never spoke, but loved to try singing along with opera. He loved classical music, watching football and golf on television, meeting new people and going on car rides.
Around age 6, however, after Rob and Kathleen Ferguson had signed up Daniel for the waiting list, he began to regress. He no longer made progress on sorting skills, and he began to lose interest in achieving goals.
"At that point, we really began to think we could use some help here," Ferguson said.
"That's when we really started to hope they could get to us with some kind of services that would enable us to feel like we could keep him at home and less like we might have to send him away."
The thought of sending their son to an institution was frightening for the Fergusons.
"When we started with him, it was a no-brainer" about keeping him home, Rob Ferguson said. "Then, in the last five or six years we started to think how his mom and I are getting older, and wondering how much more energy we would have for this."
In February, Daniel's name finally came up on the list. A care worker began coming by to work with Daniel in the daytime, giving Kathleen a much-needed break.
With the waiver, plans were made for architectural changes, including adding a new wheelchair ramp and a track system to help transport Daniel around the house.
Those projects wouldn't get done.
About two months after emerging from the list, Daniel went into cardiac arrest and died April 4.
Ferguson said he doesn't know if getting the waiver earlier would have extended Daniel's life, but it would have made his and his parents' lives easier.

As Laurel Run Cooking School nears its 20th Anniversary on May 6, I began to reminisce about the many people that I have met. I sincerely thank everyone for their support over these years. It is my hope that I have made a difference in some ways in your life through the food you cook and the families and friends you share it with.
As many of you know, I am slowing down my teaching schedule and I want to "slow the pace but stay in the race" so to speak. There may not be as many classes offered as there have been in the past... but I am still excited to teach and happy about what we are doing here at Laurel Run!
I will continue to take the summer off as I have the last few years so that I may garden, cook and recipe test and plan to be back in the fall with more Hands On classes, especially the two-day Basic Cooking Techniques classes.
Regarding classes marked SOLD OUT: please sign up anyway (you won't be charged) to be put on a waiting list: cancellations do happen.
Best Regards and Bon Appétit!
Marcia DePalma, Cooking Instructor

This new SPB16.3 Global Route Environment (GRE) Plan Status and Router Status functionality will assist you in finding errors and is designed to make it easier to work with the router and obtain feedback from the router. It employs a Constraint Manager type spreadsheet interface with cells that are active. In other words, you can execute commands on the data found within the cells.
The Plan Status and Router Status forms work similarly so you can pick any cell in either dialog and execute an appropriate command on the data in the field. To do this, you use the same command system found in the Constraint Manager – namely the right mouse button (RMB) to obtain a pop-up menu with the allowed commands based on the cell selection.
Read on for more details …
Plan StatusIn the Plan progress form, we can see that there are now several commands available to us in the Bundle name column, which can be accessed using the RMB. For example –
When a Bundle has errors, you can pick on the error cell for that Bundle and obtain information about the errors on the Errors Form as shown below:
The View Errors form contains detailed information about the error. If you zoom into a "small" area of the design and click on the hyperlink, the canvas will move the error location.Note1: There is no automatic visibility changes available to turn on/off appropriate or invalid layers. Note2: You can have as many View Errors dialogs open as desired. However, if you run the router on some data and it happens to clear up a particular error, the View Errors forms DO NOT know this. Therefore, they could be reporting out of date or stall errors.
Selection Functionality
This new functionality also supports multiple selections so you can pick as many entries as you want from the columns to execute your desired command.The standard drag, SHIFT, and CTRL keys and functionality can be used to create the appropriate selection set:
Note1: When you pick some Bundles and run a route command, the current selection set is replaced with the objects you currently have selected.Note2: Since you can use either dialog, you can do selections in the Plan Status dialog that could "replace" what is currently in the Router Status dialog.
When the router is running, the selection mechanisms are basically unavailable and are grayed out as shown below:
Finally, you can sort the columns in ascending or descending order by either using the RMB> pop-up (as shown below) or double clicking on the column to toggle sorting from ascending to descending:
I look forward to your comments on using this new SPB16.3 capability.

Grand House China Bistro offers variety without the buffet
If you enjoy meals with a variety of foods but don't enjoy the buffet experience, there is another way — that doesn't involve a sneeze guard. That way has a name, and it is dim sum.
Dim sum can be found at Grand House China Bistro, 2701 N Classen, and Fung's Kitchen, 3231 N Classen, in the Asian District every weekend.
Dim sum is traditional Cantonese cuisine, akin to Spanish tapas. Small dishes with a wide variety of fillings are offered by servers pushing carts and carrying trays. Traditional ordering is cast aside as diners choose foods as they roll or walk by. Thai and Kathy Tien's Grand House China Bistro offers more than 50 assorted dishes that come in small, medium, large and extra large. Prices start around $3 per plate.
When you're seated, the hostess will leave what looks like a scorecard on your table. Servers push carts or tote trays of food directly to your table, give a description and await a go-ahead to leave a plate or two or three with you. If you take one, they stamp your scorecard and move along. By the time your small plate, perhaps a dumpling or a couple of steamed pork buns, is finished, another server will appear with different choices. The options will be presented early and often, but there is no obligation to take a dish each time one is offered. If you did, your meal would be over in about 10 minutes.
"This is a part of Chinese culture," Thai said. "Large groups or families gather together for dim sum. It's very traditional."
The experience can be a drag race or a tiptoe through the turnip cakes. Like the buffet, diners can try a variety of foods. Unlike it, that sense of urgency that creeps into us all as we see people crowd around the feeding trough is alleviated because not only does the food come to you, it's being made fresh in the kitchen constantly. The servers parade out of the kitchen to the tables until their foods are gone, then return to the kitchen for reinforcements.
"Dim sum is served every day in China," Kathy said.
After going for dim sum, it's easy to see why that's the case and has been for perhaps 1,000 years. Thai said the tradition dates to the Tang Dynasty, which was from the 600s to 900s.
The Tien Dynasty began in Oklahoma City when Thai and Kathy opened Grand House as the disco era was in its death throes.
Thai came to Oklahoma City by way of Boston in 1980, where he lived for four years after his initial immigration from Hong Kong. Kathy's parents left Hong Kong the 1950s, first moving to Vietnam, where she was born. They then moved to France and from there to the United States.
"We moved here in 1982," she said. "We had a friend who owned a restaurant here. She told us to come to Oklahoma City because it was cheaper to live here and had few Chinese restaurants."
The first incarnation of Grand House was at NW 23 and Classen, where a CVS drugstore now stands. The old place was across the street and a little southeast of an all-night Village Inn Pancake House.
"Sometimes, when we got off work, we would go there because it was the only place open late," Kathy said.
At that time, Grand House was serving the Westernized Chinese fare still common on buffets across the country.
When the spacious building became available after the pancake house's demise in 1994, the Tiens jumped at the opportunity to grow in space and cuisine.
"We want to represent all the Asian cultures that live here," Thai said.
That's when they went from Chinese restaurant to China bistro. A menu once populated by kung paos, chop sueys and fried rices has added Vietnamese noodle bowls, Peking duck, sushi and pad Thai plus a second menu of traditional Chinese preparations.
And one would be hard-pressed to find any remaining signs that flapjacks were ever flipped in what is now an elegant, upscale restaurant with live fish tanks, original glass sculpture, avant-garde light fixtures and a dance floor to accompany the jazz trio that plays each Friday night.
Dim sum allows not only a leisurely dining experience but also a chance to taste something truly authentic whether in dumpling form, in a small steam basket or in a bun. For those looking to stretch their palates, try the fried chicken feet. The meat is akin to that you'll find in wings, but with a little more effort and, um, crunch. (Don't be afraid to spit out the tiny bones!)
But if you don't have a fetish about consuming the feet of any creature, less "Fear Factor"-worthy dishes abound: shrimp, cabbage dumplings, spare ribs, barbecue pork buns, creamy steamed buns, steamed oysters, roasted duck, roasted chicken, fried oysters, honey roasted pork, crispy roasted pork, hot and spicy shrimp, lobster dumplings, sticky rice wrapped in lotus leaf, scallop dumplings and pot stickers.
Grand House also has a well-stocked dessert case at the front of the restaurant featuring mouse-shaped cakes, tiramisu, cheesecake and fried banana rolls.
No wonder this is one of the most popular ways of eating in southern China. And seeing how Oklahoma City's Asian district is one of the most vibrant in the country, it's no surprise that Grand House and Fung's Kitchen are able to offer it locally.
"We only do it Saturday and Sunday here because we don't have enough demand yet," Kathy said.
I blame the sneeze-guard lobby.

After tickling audiences' funny bones for almost seven years, Bollywood's originalKhiladi Akshay Kumar returns to what he is best at - action. He will be seen packing some hardcore kicks and punches in Prabhu Deva directed "Rowdy Rathore" when it releases Friday.
Made with a budget of approximately Rs.40 crore, the film is a remake of Telugu film "Vikramarkudu". It is co-produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Ronnie Screwvala. The film will be released in 2,300 screens in India and around 400 screens overseas.
The film revolves around Shiva (Akshay), who is a small-time conman. He is head-over-heels in love with Priya (Sonakshi Sinha), a pretty girl whom he met at a wedding he wasn't invited to. The picture perfect world of Shiva turns upside down with the entry of six-year-old girl Neha, who believes he is her father.
Shiva also becomes the victim of a series of life threatening attacks by a gang of deadly criminals, who seem to know something he doesn't. In the quest to save his life and love, Shiva stumbles upon a deadly secret, something which takes him to a small town in Bihar.
That town is ruled by a ruthless MLA and the mafia he controls. The inhabitants of the small town find a saviour in Shiva.
Akshay is said to have learned combat karate for his role in the film. He is seen sporting a rugged look in the film. The movie bosses had launched an online hunt for Akshay's look for "Rowdy Rathore".
The cast and crew of the film had a tough time shooting in Karnataka's temple town of Hampi. The shoot was disrupted after activists alleged that the makers didn't use the minimum number of local dancers that they had promised.
Sonakshi's red sari act in the song "Chhammak challo chail chabeeli" has compelled people to draw comparisons with Kareena Kapoor's "Chhammak chhallo" in "RA.One". However, the actress brushes it off as mere co-incidence and insists the two songs should not be compared.
Filmmakers have been coming up with innovative ways of promoting a film or launching the music and "Rowdy Rathore" too tried a new trick. The film's music was launched in a chawl in Mumbai.
This will be Sonakshi's second release after blockbuster "Dabangg".
After this, Akshay and Sonakshi will appear together in "Joker" and strike a hattrick with "Once Upon A Time Again".
Two of the film's songs have a slew of Southern and Hindi film actors making a special appearance. While "Chinta ta chita" has Tamil star Vijay, Kareena Kapoor, Rajesh Hamal and Prabhu Deva himself, "Aa re pritam pyaare" has Maryam Zakaria, Shakti Mohan, Mumaith Khan and Amit Kumar.

Skin Cancer Foundation RecommendationThe Seal of Recommendation is granted to products that provide effective UV sun protection and safely aid in the prevention of sun-induced damage to the skin.
NewBeauty - Beauty Choice Award
The Best Full-Coverage Mineral Concealer
Warm Silk - Light Medium Neutral
This powder is an incredible loose mineral foundation with SPF 20 UVA/UVB broad-spectrum sun protection. This foundation leaves you with a creamy and luminous look and a feel of silk. Amazing Base minerals can be used as a concealer, foundation, powder and sunscreen in one while looking sheer and natural.
I can't say enough good things about this makeup! I use to use bare minerals, but when I worked for a doctor that sold Jane Iredale I was hooked! I've tried to go back to bare minerals bc it's less expensive but this JI makeup to me is worth the money and lasts a long time. I like the colors better and the consistency of it is more micro milled for a smoother coverage. I get compliments on my skin bc of this makeup, had a girl ask me tonight if I had makeup on, she said how pretty my skin was. I use the amazing matte loose over this to get that air brushed pore less look and it sets your makeup for the day!
Remove the seal or puncture holes for controlled flow of the minerals. Replace lid, turn upside down and tap. The minerals are now released into the sifter. Cleanse the face and moisturize. Lightly dip each side of theChisel Powder Brush into the minerals. Tap off any excess using the side of the jar. Using the lid, work the minerals into the brush until all powder is absorbed.
Apply the minerals in thin layers using downward strokes. If you've put on too much, use the Flocked Sponge to remove any excess. Begin application where you want the most coverage, then lightly layer over the rest of the face. Don't forget your neck.

4834 Tasting Notes
Another mystery tea from Jaime's secret santa package!
It smells amazing. I haven't even brewed it yet, just sniffing the dry leaf – and the blueberry and the jasmine really come together so beautifully in this blend. I've tried blueberry jasmine blends before, but, I don't think I've tried this one yet. So, I look forward to trying it!
The green tea is light with a fresh, somewhat vegetable-like flavor and a bitter note toward the middle of the sip. Not an off-putting bitter, but a savory one. The blueberry is the strongest flavor here, but the jasmine has added her distinctive sweetness to the cup as well. A nicely balanced cup. I like it very much
Thank you Jaime!
I reached for this as my first cuppa this morning. I woke up incredibly early this morning – I just couldn't sleep. Bums me out because it is the holiday break, which means I don't need to get up early to get the little one off to school… oh well.
At least I have something nice and warming to turn to! I love this tea. Strong, malty, slightly smoked, with a nice fruit quality in there too. Very wonderful flavor to this tea.
Lovely. The lavender really comes through nicely here, and I like how the fruit flavors linger throughout the sip. It is deliciously fruit-flavored without being too fruity, and nicely floral without being too flowery. And the rooibos are barely discernible.
A delicious cuppa.
This is the first tea that I tried from the many, many teas that my secret santa (Jaime!) sent to me. She individually wrapped each tea, and sent just enough of each tea for me to taste it and review it. She knows me well! This is absolutely perfect for me, because as much as I like tea, I think what I like best is being able to drink tea and then write about it. Having just this much… is PERFECT, because then I don't have to find a place to stash the rest of it. (there is no such thing as too much tea, but there is such a thing as too little room to keep tea)
So, since these are all individually wrapped, I don't know what I'm going to be selecting until I've selected it and opened it… kind of like the 12 teas of christmas thing, which was a lot of fun for me. Jaime has allowed me to extend that excitement for many many more days! Thank you Jaime!
OK… on to the tea. This is delightful. Delicious. YUMMY even!
Sweet strawberry. I can taste the honey-esque tone to it, and I like that. A beautiful tea!
I am having the last pyramid that I have in my stash… This time around, I can taste more of the cinnamon, which I really like! This really isn't terrible at all.
Why do I find that I enjoy something as I am sipping on the very last of it? It is still not something I am CRAZY about or anything, but, today's cuppa is quite nice actually.
This is a little unexpected, but in a very yummy way. What I expected was something more along the lines of a peppermint tea that has been jazzed up with a little bit of crushed candy cane. But, the vanilla adds a wonderful dimension to this tea that makes it more like a candy cane and less like a breath mint.
A very nice treat! I am glad that Frank found a few of these and added them to his inventory… because it is really YUM!
Nice review this sounds good I wonder how this would compare to candy cane land by celestial seasonings?
This is a decent rooibos blend, but of the four in the Festive Medley package from Suffuse, I would have to say that this one is probably my least favorite. The reason: I can taste the rooibos a little too much here, including that funky aftertaste that I get from rooibos sometimes. I don't really like that aftertaste, and with many of the rooibos blends out there, the flavors added manage to conceal that funkiness… but somehow this one missed the mark.
But, a little bit of brown sugar does fix this, and also enhances the apple pie-like flavor. Not my favorite rooibos blend, but, not horrible.
Oh wow! This is SO GOOD. This is honestly one of the very best Oolongs I've ever tasted. Better than Milk Oolong, maybe better than Ali Shan! And I LOVE Ali Shan!
I really love this one. The flavor is rich with buttery notes and honeysuckle! Honey tones! Beautiful!
LOVE it!
Finishing off the last that I have on hand of this lovely tea. As much as I love this tea without any addition (it is really yummy straight), I have discovered that it is EVEN better with a splash of dark chocolate breve creme… OMG. It's like chocolate-gasm. YUM….
PS: just noticed that my full length review of this published this morning:
Merry Christmas everyone! I hope everyone has lots of whatever it is that makes you happy on this special day (and every day).
On to the tea that sits before me!
Um… YUM!
This is delightful. You can read my full-length review of it here:
And the same to you! I just made a 52 teas order, but it looks like I have to do another – I love gingerbread and this sounds so good.
Second Infusion – even BETTER than the first. More of the gingerBREAD cake-y taste. YUM! Love this one!

Police on Wednesday were investigating an overnight accident near Happy that injured two teens.
Carlie Yowell, of Happy, and Abby Simon, of Tulia, both 17, were taken to Northwest Texas Hospital after their car left the highway and rolled north of Happy on Tuesday night, the Department of Public Safety said. Both girls have been released from the hospital.
A DPS spokesman said Yowell was southbound in a Ford Focus, owned by Simon's father, on U.S. Highway 87 about 10:15 p.m. Tuesday, when she lost control of the car, which crossed through the median, where it began to roll. It passed through the northbound lane and went into a pasture, where it came to rest on its passenger side after having rolled several times, police said.
Speed may have been a factor in the crash, police said. The girls had to be extricated from the wreckage, authorities said.
One of the girls was flown to an Amarillo hospital, and the other was transported by ambulance, DPS said. Both girls were wearing seat belts, police said.
