This blog post by Chris Brown really hit home for me — as it should for most people working in marketing or communications.
Friday Five: 5 questions for Daryl Weber @BrandedCortex), author of 'Brand Seduction'
We like to think that we are in control of our thoughts — that the decisions we make are always thoughtful, logical and rational. But as recent neuroscience research is revealing, our decision-making is heavily influenced by our subconscious. The same is true in marketing, where the field of neuroscience presents a world of opportunities — and concerns — for the marketer as well as the consumer.

More and more, global brands are messing around with one of their most important online identifiers: their URLs. In plain language, a company's domain name is its Internet address.
A few years ago, the brand challenge was to secure every possible exposure for the URL in all communications materials. Having achieved maximum exposure, companies have moved on to a new problem: which URL to use. A growing number of companies, especially those purveying a multitude of products or those with massive global representation, invent as many URLs as they do Web sites.
Take Coke. The URL that most likely comes to mind is www.coke.com or www.coca-cola.com. Both URLs work. Do both lead to the one and only official Coke home page? No. Type in www.cokecce.com or www2.coca-cola.com, www.ltg.coca-cola.com or www.coca-colascholars.org. Coke promotes hundreds of domains all over the world. For this giant, a universally recognized and respected brand, confusion is unlikely. It's the exception. Not every brand can spend several billion dollars annually on marketing to build and maintain a name. A mistake with something as vital as a company's URL can be fatal. Here's why.
One Company Equals One Address
Your URL is your lifeline to the interactive world. Type almost any well-recognized brand name into a search engine. Ninety-nine percent of results will refer to private individuals, competitors, or articles about the brand. Few, if any, of the results are likely to be the official brand Web site.
Ensuring customers visit your site, and your site alone, is challenging enough. If you promote several Web addresses across several countries, you add to users' confusion. The reality is that your brand should have only one URL, not several.
Now, this shouldn't keep you from investing in online promotions or differentiating individual products. Take Microsoft. Its main site is www.microsoft.com. For Microsoft's Microsoft Office brand, for example, the company would not use www.office.com. Microsoft uses www.microsoft.com/office. This is smart, for obvious reasons. In doing this, it ensures we all remember the Microsoft URL, that Office is a Microsoft product, and even that we are able to guess the addresses of its products and subsites. Its PowerPoint application, part of the Office suite of software, is www.microsoft.com/office/powerpoint. I shouldn't need to ask you what the URL for Microsoft Excel would be. It should be obvious, because Microsoft predictably uses a clear and logical URL structure.
Even if you're the biggest, wealthiest company in the world, consistency is critical. Creating a URL structure that enables customers to guess most of your addresses is key to their ability to stay in touch. This is all the more important in a world where more and more ad campaigns, Web sites, billboards — you name it — appear daily. Simplicity is also vital. It's a quality that counts for everything: your campaign, your home page, your message, your brand, and your URL.
Cut down your URLs and stick with one clear structure. It's not only cheaper, it helps your customers remember your brand — and how to find it online.

Joe Jonas, Nelly, Gloria Estefan and John Rich to Judge New Competition
A new music competition series has selected the panel of judges that will find America a new artist to adore. The CW's "The Next: Fame Is at Your Doorstep" has recruited Joe Jonas, Nelly, Gloria Estefan and John Rich to go on a nationwide search for undiscovered artists.
According to THR, these judges will travel the country and find local performers that will represent their town in the big stage in front of the whole nation. The difference to other music competitions is, the judges will each spend 72 hours to living with the contestants and giving them the ultimate mentoring experience.
"The series is a music talent show, I'm really excited about it ...I'm going to be moving in with someone. The judges will be going to different cities in the states. There will be four people auditioning in each city and these artists are going to be either people that had a chance in the past, maybe they possibly got dropped from a record label. Also there will be people that are local stars or local celebrities," Jonas said in a radio interview with Ryan Seacrest.
The Jonas brother added, "I'm going to be living with them for 72 hours, I'm going to be spending time with their families, learning about them, say they flip burgers, I'm going to be flipping burgers with them, just so that its really hands-on so that I can really get to know this artist so that we can work together for this audition. It's going to be a lot of fun I am really looking forward to it."
Jonas has judged Miss USA pageant and "American Idol" before. He is set to participate in FOX's celebrity dating show "The Choice".
"The Next" comes from Queen Latifah and exec producers Dave Broome and Shakim Compere.

Skip to comments.Obit: Maria del Carmen Bousada (became a mom at 66)
Posted on 07/16/2009 10:29:41 AM PDT by OrangeHoof
MADRID (AP) A Spanish woman believed to have become the world's oldest new mother when she gave birth at 66 has died at 69, leaving behind twin toddlers, newspapers reported Wednesday.
Maria del Carmen Bousada, who reportedly died Saturday, gave birth in December 2006 as a single mother after getting in vitro fertilization treatment at a clinic in Los Angeles.
The births ignited a firestorm of debate over how old is too old for a new mother, and how much responsibility fertility clinics have over who gets treatments.
Bousada told an interviewer she lied to the fertility clinic about her age, and maintained that because her mother had lived to be 101, she had a good chance of living long enough to raise a child.
(Excerpt) Read more at legacy.com ...
A selfish exhausted woman!
I hope that there's some loving relative who will take the girls. But, hey, what the heck? Maria died fulfilled, right?
I think the potential problems from a govt being able to decide who can or can't have kids far out-strip the problems that rare cases like this might cause.
Do you take the same attitude towards a woman in her thirties, who already has children and goes ahead and gets pregnant again, despite already having had breast cancer? She's got an even higher chance of leaving her children without a mother in a very few years, but most FReepers seem to regard that sort of thing as heroic.
This is not a government problem ... the various medical associations need to get together and decree that members shall not reverse menopause to produce pregnancy; violation to cause loss of license to practice medicine.
Exactly. There are never going to be very many women wanting to have babies at this age, and in most of those rare cases, there will be close relatives supporting the decision, involved in the babies' lives from the start, and ready to step in as adoptive parents if the need arises. We should be more concerned about the never-ending stream of brain-damaged babies born to crackheads and methheads and alcoholics, whose mothers are second/third/fourth generation welfare dependents, and whose children are guaranteed to grow up at taxpayer expense and become welfare-dependent adults and/or prison inmates.
Your question is just peculiar. Why would it be "heroic" in such an instance? I do think it's heroic when a pregnant woman finds out she has cancer and puts off treatment until after the birth of the child.
I don't know that anybody here's said that an intentional pregnancy for a woman with cancer is "heroic".
Nutjob lady went out of her way, including LYING to the fertility clinic about her age, to get pregnant.
Her risk of having disabled children was substantially higher at her age but, dammit, she wanted children.
I was talking about women who have already had cancer, and THEN proceed to get pregnant (often when they already have children), knowing it's more likely than not that they'll die before the child finishes elementary school. Most FReepers would think that was just fine, but then say it's obviously "selfish" when a very healthy 66 year old (who could pass for 55 to physicians), who actually has a longer life expectancy than the thirty-something woman with a history of breast cancer, decides to have a baby.
And if they don't all agree to your proposed decree (which they don't, and won't)? And it's the government that controls the issuance and revocation of medical licenses.
Yes, she is selfish. So are older men.
So now risk of having a disabled child is the criterion? She didn't have a disabled child -- she had a set of non-disabled twins. And since she was using donor eggs, she had a much lower risk of having a disabled child than a woman in her late 30s or early 40s (e.g. Sarah Palin). Should we also criticize women who allow themselves to get pregnant the natural way in their 40s, because "her risk of having disabled children is substantially higher"?
I'm just looking for some consistency here, and not finding any.
While family refused to release a cause a death (the exclusive "rights" to her story were sold to a publisher, the story said), it was reported that a tumor had been found on her soon after her delivery and the woman had been ill for some time, so she apparently wasn't as healthy as she pretended to be.
I could live with a government law that would make illegal in vitro fertilization for women aged 50 or over. Natural fertilization is another story because then it's not a doctor's office making someone pregnant.
How does the use of donor eggs give her an advantage over a naturally-conceived mother 35-45?
She had to LIE to the doctors.
There's your clue, right there.
If a woman in her 30s (hell, even her 20s) was told she had a significantly higher chance of a troubled pregnancy or disabled children, I'd say the same thing.
Was Sara Palin advised against pregnancy by her doctor?
Cuz, when you have to lie about your age to the doctor, you probably already know the answer.
If a healthy woman can naturally conceive, I think nature's already given the go-ahead.
Just sayin'.
No argument from me. However, if the 58-year-old fathered a child with a woman in her 20s or 30s, the child would still have their mother if the man were to die.
I think most would claim that losing a mother is more devastating to toddlers than losing a father.
I don't imagine that happens a lot. Most women who get breast cancer are older than their 30s when they get it. And what if a woman was in remission and had a good prognosis? You never know what will happen or who will get sick or when. A woman who's been healthy her whole life might have a baby and then come down with an illness a year later, while the breast cancer survivor never has a recurrence.
Yeah, whatever makes you happy! Sad.
And getting the government involved? How long before the decree comes down that babies born like this are to be retroactively aborted? No, thanks.
I do & I agreed ...she was fulfilled...so whatever makes you happy is acceptable today!
"Bousada told an interviewer she lied to the fertility clinic about her age, and maintained that because her mother had lived to be 101, she had a good chance of living long enough to raise a child."
Well, she's dead wrong.
Only if she were using her own eggs, which I seriously doubt she was.
Many breast cancers are steroid-dependent. A woman who has had this type of breast cancer and has a good prognosis significantly worsens her prognosis by having another baby, because of the elevated circulating steroid levels during pregnancy. The timing of this 66 year old's breast cancer, originally diagnosed soon after the birth of the twins, is probably not a coincidence — it was most likely triggered by the pregnancy, or at least accelerated by the pregnancy (i.e. maybe she was going to get it anyway, but she probably wouldn't have gotten it by age 69 if it hadn't been for the pregnancy). The same principle applies to much younger women who are already at high risk due to a previous bout of breast cancer.
I'm just pointing out that if a story was posted on FR about a woman in her thirties who already had a couple of children, who had recently had breast cancer with a poor prognosis for 5 year survival, and who was now choosing to have yet another child, it's likely that no one would post a reply accusing her of being "selfish" for choosing to have another child, even when she knew she was unlikely (statistically much MORE unlikely than this 66 year old was) to live to see her child start kindergarten.
More importantly, what's really happening in our society is that women who start careers and are seeking to achieve enough financial security to have children and stay home with them while they're young and keep them out of the public schools later on, are being very very heavily taxed to support the children of people who are going ahead and having children despite not being able to fully support them (and that includes a solid majority of all children in public schools — whose parents have not and never will pay as much in school taxes as the government is spending to educate/indoctrinate their children). So these hard-working, productive women keep putting off having their own children longer and longer, because the government keeps taking more and more of their money to spend on other people's children and to buy the votes of the parents of these other children. It would be the ultimate act of government tyranny to then block these older women's access to high tech fertility treatments.
The use of donor eggs give a huge advantage over natural conception in mothers over 35, when it comes to the risk of the child being born with a genetically based disability (which is by far the most common kind, apart from babies born to drug or alcohol abusing mothers). Donor eggs are always from women in their 20s, and the statistical incidence of Down Syndrome is far, far lower from these eggs.
When Sarah Palin got pregnant at 43, her statistical risk of the baby having Down Syndrome was about 1 in 60. For this 66 year old woman using donor eggs from a woman even in her very late 20s (like 29), the risk was less than 1 in 1000. So if statistical risk of having a disabled baby is a legitimate argument against a woman choosing to have a baby, then we should be criticizing any woman beyond her mid-30s having a baby unless she's using donor eggs.
It's not the payload, it's the DELIVERY VEHICLE.
There's a reason females become infertile at advanced ages, especially 66.
So you think, but this is pure speculation on your part. When you have some evidence to support your low opinion of your fellow Freepers, it might be more believable.

In all, nearly 30 girls from the Lake Forest school helped out Jan. 17 at the Libertyville site, 742 E. Park Ave. Volunteers that afternoon packed 142 boxes which represented 30,672 meals. This amount of meals translates to enough nourishment to feed 84 kids for an entire year.
Woodlands Academy requires each student to do at least 70 hours of community service prior to graduation. Many students, though, are passionate about helping others and perform significantly more hours. Woodlands Academy

Story Time (previous tales)
Fact to Fiction:
My family has never set strong boundaries between fact and fiction. We aren't so much outright liars as we are "truth-stretchers." Every story is based in fact. Starts out as truth. Begins with observation. But nothing ever stays that way very long.
If we see something twice, it soon becomes three times. Then four. Then a half-dozen, or more. Why talk about five deer when seven is so much better? How big was that fish? Ten inches? A foot? More, maybe? Why not?
Indeed: Why not? That's the question, isn't it? Why the hell not?
My dad was one of the best story-tellers you'd ever want to know. To this day, I still don't know if what he told me was the truth. All of his tales seemed to start with a solid reality. Then, somehow, he'd stray from the path—I think. That was part of the joy, not knowing. All I know is when he was done I was never quite sure if he was pulling my leg. For sure there was no way he was ever going to tell me, one way, or the other. If I asked him directly he'd sparkle his sky blue eyes and say with a sigh, "don't you believe your old dad?"
My mom always told what she thought was the truth, but wasn't. See, Mom had an extremely strong filter through which she experienced the world. It may well be that she reported it as accurately as she could. Trouble was, oftentimes it had nothing to do with the way things really were. I cringe when people treat what she told them as fact because I know for a fact that many, if not most of her memories were inaccurate.
It wasn't until I was an adult that I understood that I inherited that same sort of filter from her. My skewed view became obvious when I started into serious scientific research and tried to use measures and statistics to bolster what I thought I was seeing. I was confused when the numbers I calculated refused to agree with me. Convincing myself that the problem was due to my faulty observations was one of the toughest lessons I ever learned. It's something I struggle with every, single day. Yet, in the end, knowing I see a badly warped version of reality has made me a better researcher and more understanding—if disbelieving—of the people around me.
Research in history helps illuminate the common filters used by everyone; political, economic, racial. What happens when two people tell you what they remember about the same incident? Sometimes the memories mesh. More often they are different. Sometimes very different.
Should we discard the stories we hear from others and believe only what we experience for ourselves? Some people do just that and I pity them because their own filters may change the world in ways they cannot begin to comprehend. Better, I think, to give a listen to all of the stories around us as long as we're sure to consider the source.

Can we buy real poo next time?
So... This morning I get into the shower.
I'm carrying a brand-new bottle of shampoo. My favorite brand. I use it all the time. Really. It enables what little hair I have to be soft and glowing. Sure does. Yep. I saw it in a commercial. So it must be true.
I'm in the shower. I'm soaking wet (no surprise there). I snap open the lid of the shampoo bottle and hold it over my upturned hand... Nothing comes out. I squeeze the bottle. Nope. Nothing. At all. I unscrew the cap. Beneath, I find a plastic seal.
What the heck? On my shampoo? A plastic seal? Against what? Shampoo thieves? Shampoo diluters? Shampoo adulteraters? Shampoo switchers with hair removalers?
What's this world coming to? I bought the same brand and size bottle a couple of months ago. There was no plastic seal. Probably some Homeland Security rule or something. The Shampoo Czar declared an orange state of emergency for all bottles. I shouldn't joke, I know, I'll end up on the watch list - if I'm not there already.
I try to remove the plastic seal. Should be easy, there's a little tab to pull. I pull on the tab. The tab pulls off. The seal stays on. I curse (out loud) at the wonderful engineering behind such a design. Now what? I'm nekked. Soaking wet. In the shower. What might I have that has a chance of piercing a plastic seal? My teeth? For a shampoo bottle? Even *I'm* not that dim.
I have a valve at the shower head that lets me turn off *most* of the flow, to save water while I'm soaping up. I don't use it, of course, being a Wasteful American, but it's there nonetheless. I manage to rip open the shampoo bottle's plastic seal using the edge of that shower head valve-handle. A couple pieces of plastic manage to escape. They hurry down the floor drain. To wait several months before causing a clog. At the worst possible time. Plastic's bad that way. Ornery plastic. Mind of its own, plastic has.
I screw the cap back on, trying not to get any water into the shampoo. That'll change the composition of the shampoo. And, somewhere, give a shampoo chemist bad dreams. I hold the shampoo bottle up and, with vim and vigor, snap open the top.
Hold on... What's that coming towards me? It's a big blob of un-watered-down shampoo. Heading straight for my right eye.
!! BLINK, FOOL !! My brain screams.
"Who, me?" Asks my eye. My eyes are sort of slow, sometimes. They've been headed downhill ever since I started wearing bifocals.
Blam! The shampoo lands right on the lashes of my right eye.
!! DON'T BLINK !! My brain screams.
"Who, me?" Asks my eye. And it blinks. I told you they were sort of slow, didn't I? My right eye is now filled with searing shampoo-lava. It burns. With a big B. And a big URNS, too. I hear a shampoo chemist giggling, somewhere (later, when I'm thinking more clearly, I'll put some water into the bottle to get even). I stick my face into the shower stream to flush the chemicals from my eye.
I don't know what mornings are like at your house. But here, it's a whole lot of people vying for limited resources. That's why I've always crawled outta bed first. No matter where I've live or whom I've lived with. I want to be at the top of the schedule. The first in line. I always want to kick off the schedule. It comes from being a second child. Really - ask any second child you know. If they say it isn't true, they're fibbing like a sack of (sham)poo.
Top of the schedule I am. Still, during mornings, everything has to run like clock-work. Everything. It's like the tides at Normandy on D-Day. The orbits of the planets on a moon launch. Everything has to be lined up just so. Bing. Bang. Boom. Including the amount of time *I* spend in the shower.
It's not that somebody's waiting to use the shower. Nope. But. There are only so many butts and only so many commodes, y'know? And, in a house this old, butts, commodes, showers, and faces are all connected by pipes. All in one nice, neat, sweet, perfectly connected string of events. Like the co-incidences that brought you to this point in time.
I'm running behind my regular schedule because of the sealed shampoo. And my face is in the shower because I'm rinsing shampoo-magma outta my eye. My right eye. My left eye wonders what's going on.
Somebody else, somewhere else in the house. Lifts their butt from a commode. Relieved at finishing one of their first tasks of the day, they push the flush handle... I feel a drop in the water pressure - the cold water pressure.
!! FACE...BACK !! My brain screams.
My face (which isn't nearly as slow as my eyes) pulls back from the soon-to-arrive flash of heat. I even manage a step back and away. Some reflexes, huh? Of course, it takes an instant before the water rises to scalding temperatures and another instant before I realizes that the course of the shower spray is now aimed directly at what some would politely term my "naughty bits."
My brain screamed something at that point. I don't recall what it was. Except it started with bad words and went on with bad words and ended with bad words. I think I used every bad word I know. That's a LOT of bad words. Trust me. Lots. Luckily I was 'way too busy dancing around the too-hot water to listen very much to what it was I was saying.
I was kind of tender toweling off. My shampooed right eye looked as if I smoked a bale of weed (perhaps I should say what I have read a bale of weed eye would look like. Homeland Security and all that). My left eye looked more angry than anything else. And slow.
Stupid shampoo.

Sorry, but this was too acidic for us. I LOVE the red pepper flakes, exactly the right ingredient for pizza sauce! My BF wouldn't eat this though, due to its "I'm a big baby and can't eat anything that tastes like it might exacerbate my ulcer" taste. Guess I gotta go with something sweeter or cut it with red peppers. sigh. I wanted to use this for Pizza Roll-Ups #50772 but I ended up adding it to my lasagne meat sauce. (He'll never know!)
Very good, I used tomatoe puree as my family does not like chunky sauce. I also sauteed a little onion in some olive oil before adding the tomatoes. Followed the rest of the recipe but added just a little sugar at the end to cut the acidity. This was a very good thick sauce that has a lot of flavor from just a few ingrediants. Thank you for the recipe.
This has the WOW factor for me...it's got simple flavors which make me want to have a very large Chicago pizza! EASY!!! Made for ZWT3...a Toast to the Captains!
This cooked up nicely and was flavorful. I added 1 teaspoon of sugar to cut the acidity. I used it with Easy Peezy Pizza Dough (Bread Machine Pizza Dough) and loaded up with toppings for a pizza night. Thank you for sharing your recipe! Reviewed for World Tour 3.
Wonderful pizza sauce, easy with great flavour. I'm only sorry I had no fresh basil and had to use dried, but I'll be making this again when fresh basil is plentiful. I used a stick blender for a bit smoother consistency. This would be great made with fresh garden tomatoes in the summer and would freeze well. Thank you, lucid.
This was wonderful on Deep Dish Spinach and Mozzarella Pizza, #171223. I can't wait to try it on more pizzas.
This is one truly outstanding pizza sauce : ) I made as directed resulting in the perfect consistency and flavor. I added double the amount of optional red pepper flakes because we like spicy. I will keep this recipe close at hand for many pizzas to come in the future! Thank you, lucid!
OMG I've found a new favorite pizza sauce. The flavor is excellent as is the consistency. I added the garlic, basil and red peppers right in with everything else and let it simmer for about 3 hours on low and it was just perfect. I'll be making this again.
Yum! This sauce was excellent! It tasted better than any sauce I've ever had on any authentic Chicago pizza, and I'm originally from Chicago. I will definitely be making this again, possibly for pastas too! I used 2 cans of Italian style crushed tomatoes instead of whole tomatoes, and it worked out fine. I also added 2 teaspoons of sugar. It took a very long time to get all the liquid out (a couple hours), but that might be because I used a medium saucepan instead of a stockpot. I think I will use my large Dutch oven next time so that I can have a greater surface area to get all the liquid out more quickly. Thank you for posting this! I will have to try your recipe for Chicago style pizza dough too! Yum!

Welcome to the official website of
Her Royal Highness Inkhosatana Principal Princess and Chief Maiden Sikhanyiso of Swaziland
Besides the two other existing monarchies: the Kingdom of Morocco and the Kingdom of Lesotho, Swaziland remains the last absolute monarchy in Africa, whose people thrive in a culture that hallows ancient tradition, the acquisition of wisdom and knowledge, and Godliness.
Internationally, Swaziland is respected for its ability to unite Africans through the commemoration of African custom. Having preserved its originality, kingship, language, and ways-of-life, Swaziland is affectionately considered "the heartland of Africa".
HM King Mswati III of Swaziland has created a legacy as an ambassador for culture and monarchial democracy. The king encourages the idea of peaceful resolutions between rival countries and between predecessors and new heads-of-state usually during general summits of the United Nations, Commonwealth, African Union, and Southern African Development Community.
His Majesty's endeavours are both respected and emulated by the young Swazi royals and Princess Sikhanyiso, in particular, strives to promote peace and unity to the world as a requisite for sustainable development in Africa. Peace as Swaziland knows it comes from the Almighty God.
Though landlocked, many tourists admire Swaziland's scenic landscape: mountains that omit pure mineral water, unpolluted fresh air, bush forests, and waterfalls that piece Swaziland together into a little paradise. With a population of a little above one million, Swaziland is purported to be the home of a larger number of flora and fauna and animal species than people.
The kingdom is renowned for being a calm and peaceable environment to visit, live and work in. Both foreigners and locals agree on one thing, that Swaziland's greatest resource is its people: inspiring, joyful, and well-mannered.
Princess Sikhanyiso's avowed intention of serving Their Majesties and the state in truth and humility reflects in this, that although she acquired her education in the West, she always returns home to support cultural ceremonies and join forces with others for the purpose of political and socio-economic development in Swaziland.

Selby's since stopped John Simpson in 5 who'd never been stopped before and I thought beat Smith at least once in two life and death fights they had.
Selby deserves respect for what he did to Smith and Simpson. He v big for a Feather and if anybody from the UK goes on past domestic honours it'll Selby imo.
He can box and have a fight and improves all the time, domestically he looks much stronger than the other Featherweights.
Smith for all his supposed pedigree has never shone, as both Smith fights also showed - overrated.

It was at the weight above - he's since moved down in weight and looks to have done him the World of good.
He's also now dedicated himself to the Sport after not being committed enough.

Lanark: Transitioning From Textile Mills To "Made In Lanark" Modern Tourism
So many Ontario communities are searching for the right lure for visitors. Lanark County has taken such a refreshing approach to this challenge that this beautiful region is a perfect case study for the face of modern tourism.
No glitzy developments or manufactured fun here. Lanark is a community committed to being itself. It is a place that cherishes its own landscape and history, naturally creating tourist attractions and activities that are unique and genuine. Many of these attractions are top-notch and are all based on a deep sense of history and a rugged, quintessentially Ontario landscape. With a location that puts most of the county within 45 minutes of Ottawa, it is hard to imagine a more rewarding destination for day trips or long-weekend getaways.
Lanark's past blends with its present with its pride in its Made in Lanark bounty. Ontario has its own mighty Mississippi River, and its power was harnessed to make Lanark County the engine of a vigorous textile industry. Although mills and textile factories were an important source of employment and commerce for over 150 years, the last one closed in 1989. The industry leaves behind a legacy of charming towns and a penchant for fabric creations and all things knitted. Beyond textiles, Lanark has long been home to skilled artisans, farmers, and manufacturers of great products found on the shelves and tables across Ontario, from maple syrup to Mrs. McGarrigle's Fine Mustard.
Today, there is a wave of youth returning to this county's small villages. With them, come new ideas about farm-to-table cuisine, artisan craftsmanship and reclaiming salvage for resale and repurposing old buildings into the building blocks of a modern tourism industry.
Village Hopping in Lanark
One of the best parts of getting out of the city is experiencing the joys of small-town life – easy parking, no traffic, bucolic views, friendly shopkeepers and affordable prices. Lanark is one of the easiest counties to "village hop," since highways 7 and 15 form a loop that makes it possible to visit several of the main attractions in a day. So pack up your car for an old-fashioned drive in the country, complete with Canadian Shield scenery along the way.
In the north county, you have the hills of Pakenham, with its landscape reminiscent of an English village. Country cottages and churches are spread across green fields and a five-span stone bridge passes over the Mississippi. Just to the south, Almonte has experienced a complete renewal in recent years, as artists and locavores have turned this village into a day trip all on its own, filled with one-of-a-kind shopping, restored mills, and memorable food. Nearby Carleton Place boasts one of the most beautiful town halls in the province. This majestic nineteenth-century stone hall has skyward-reaching turrets and a bell tower visible from nearly everywhere in town. For those with an interest in Eastern Ontario's history, you can explore the engineering feat of the Rideau Canal in Smiths Falls, with its Bascule Bridge and locks. In Perth – also known as stone town – you'll not only find great architecture, but a gateway to several local natural wonders including a provincial park and a great hike.
Day Trips Made for You
This picturesque county has some-thing for everyone, from handsome stone villages to wholesome country fairs, to outdoor adventures.
It won't take long to unwind once you arrive in Lanark. Exploring the backroads and countryside of rural Ontario provides a rewarding opportunity in itself. The hidden gems found in the villages and towns of Lanark make for great memories to share with friends when you get home. You'll make them jealous they didn't come along for the ride for a taste of authentic Ontario.

I am an avid listener. I listen between 75-100 hours per month on my iPhone: 60% fiction to 40% non-fiction.
"The Dad is side-splitting funny"
This book is hysterically funny for the first half and just plain funny in the second half. The father's advice is uproarious and the counter point of the mother just can't be topped. I was on a crowded Amtrak train coming back from NYC and I was laughing so hard, I thought the conductor was going to put me off midway. This book is really about the travails of the author finding and figuring out whether he should or should not propose to his girlfriend.
This book is going to appeal far more to men than to woman. It isn't that the book is sexist, it's because it written from a very male point of view. Think sophomoric humor. If you like that type of humor and gutter language, you'll be fine.
For me, I found it funny. If you liked his first book and the TV show, you'll like his second. Thumbs up.
"Not as good as Sh*t My Dad Says"
I'd still give Justin another shot just because I loved Sh*t my dad says so much
I might not. It was a little monotonous
No. It tied itself up nicely.
"Funny but nowhere like the the first book."
Wanted more of his dad in the book. If was funny, but not want I was expecting.
Anything by Justin Halpern makes me laugh. I recommend his books 110% to all my friends!
"Laugh-out-loud funny."
Absolutely hilarious story of a young man trying to understand women.
Fantastic narration.
Don't listen with your kids.
"loved it"
I loved the story. closes out the first book. śean shemmel is a great story teller
"Cute but not great"
The reading of this book is excellent. The portrayal of all characters works, but that of the father is extremely well done. The overall book is decent, cute, but it's not great. It's somewhat of a history of the author's relationships, presumably embellished for humor's sake, but it's really the relationship with the father that makes the book (not surprising from the writer of "Sh*t my dad says"). It's not bad reading, it's humorous at times, it's short and quick to get through. I don't feel like I wasted my time reading it, but I can't think of anything about it that would cause me to recommend it to anyone.
"I'm too old for this stuff..."
Some of this is very funny, but in the end, it just wasn't for me. I guess am too jaded to listen to stories about boys and young men's troubles with girls. I kept cringing like I do to some sitcoms. Somehow I thought it would be more metaphorical...
"Dad saves story"
yes but all i really want is more about his dad.
More wisdom from dad,
not impressed not unimpressed

Bunny Burson, The Politics of Power, BAG Gallery, 168 7th Street, Brooklyn, New York 11215, tel. (718) 858-6069. Opening Reception: Saturday, December 1, 2007, 6-9 pm.
Bunny Burson, who was raised in Tennessee, but today lives in St Louis, is passionate about politics. "I believe it's essential to our society and to our lives. Voting is important. When people don't vote, and when votes aren't cast, it can have terrible consequences for all of us."
Burson says she was always interested in politics; she grew up with it. But her real coming of age occurred in the turbulent year of 1968. "I was an exchange student that year, in France. Things didn't go quite the way I imagined. They exploded, and I was in the middle of it." She described the experience as an "awakening."
"I was politically active from that point. I never stopped." But Burson pursued a career in the graphic arts, completing an undergraduate degree at Tulane University and then an M.F.A. at Washington University in St. Louis.
Still, one election was a personal and a national trauma, says Burson. "It was 2000. I was deeply involved in the campaign and during the recount, given everything that had happened plus the added friendship with the Gores, I felt as if I were in the center of the storm."
Most of her series in fact revolves around the events of the the 2000 election and the ultimate Supreme Court decision in Bush v. Gore that halted the recount and put George W. Bush in the Oval Office, rather than the candidate favored by Burson, fellow Tennessean Al Gore, who drew a half million more votes than his opponent.
In "Stain 2" the outcome of the election is laid at the doorstep of the Supreme Court, and particularly Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. Burson recounts that she attended a presentation by O'Connor at Washington University recently at which a questioner asked the retired justice whether she had ever made a decision she regretted? She responded with a "no." The questioner pressed: "Not even Bush v. Gore?" And Justice O'Connor said that it was important always to look forward and never to look back.
"That irritated me," Burson said. "Actions have consequences, and people need to take responsibility for what they've done. The Supreme Court's decision in Bush v. Gore undercut our democracy. And that led me to produce 'Stain 1 and 2,' I took the graceful lace ascots of the sort for which Sandra Day O'Connor was famous, and treated them with a red stain for O'Connor's partisan vote in the case. I also put bits of chad in the lace as a touch of humor and to provide some historical context."
"537" refers to the margin of victory that George W. Bush achieved in Florida as a result of the decision to stop counting the votes. But the work points to the consequences that flowed from that action as well, the disastrous invasion and occupation of Iraq. "My artistic intent is to show the consequences of the flawed election in Florida by mocking the Iraqi vote with the blood (the red dye was taken from my own blood) being shed in its name." When Iraqis voted to adopt their constitution, the index finger of each Iraqi who voted was tinged with a purple dye to reflect the fact that a vote had been cast. "I metaphorically applied this same process to the vote in Florida, using both red and blue dye to mark the voter preferences. It was a reminder that the voters who picked Bush were putting us on the path to a war against Iraq. The origins of the tragedy in Iraq were in the precincts of Florida, and in the suspended vote counting process." Burson says that once word got around about her project she had lots of volunteers. "People were eager to have their index finger cast for inclusion in the piece."
"For 'Turbulence 2000,' I imagined the recount as a storm overwhelming Florida and the nation. I used hurricanes, tornados and tsunamis as my metaphors in a series of large monoprints on handmade paper. I created the storms from 2000 election chad. To inject a touch of humor into these dark events I imbedded images of the cast of characters in my work. Being tossed about in the storms are Katherine Harris, Jeb Bush, Al Gore, Karl Rove, Justices O'Connor and Scalia, John Bolton and James Baker."
The actual materials used in the voting process figure regularly in the works in Burson's exhibition. One work in particular turns to the actual ballots as its basis.
"For 'Powerful Consequences 2,' I created a series of unique objects depicting ballots. Between pieces
of plexi cut to the size of a ballot, there are layers of prints and
digital imagery, which include an actual punch card ballot and maps of
Florida and Iraq. There are butterflies, caricatures of the
personalities involved, and chad collaged between them to emphasize the
powerful consequences of the vote. With the Supreme Court set to rule
on the validity of photo ID laws for voters, my concerns about
impediments to casting votes continue to resonate.
As the next presidential election year approaches, and with it the earliest presidential primaries the country has ever witnessed, the issues portrayed in Burson's work are back in the news. Voter ID programs, "caging," and "black box voting" issues continue to be in the headlines. And no one dismissed the possibility of another election decided in the Supreme Court.
Burson's word was exhibited in the summer at Bruno David Gallery in St Louis, Missouri, and will open in December at BAG Gallery, 168 7th Street, Brooklyn, New York 11215.

In five easy lessons
Flor Arely Sánchez had been in bed with a fever and pains throughout her body for three days when a July thunderstorm broke over the mountainside. She got nervous when bolts of light flashed in the sky. Lightning strikes the San Julián region of western El Salvador several times a year, and her neighbors fear storms more than they fear the march of diseases — first dengue, then chikungunya, now Zika. Flor worried about a lot of things, since she was pregnant.
Late in the afternoon, when the pains had somewhat eased, Flor thought she might go to a dammed-up bit of the river near her house to bathe. She is thirty-five and has lived in the same place all her life, where wrinkled hills are planted with corn, beans, and fruit trees. She took a towel and soap and walked out into the rain. Halfway to the river, the pains returned and overcame her. The next thing Flor remembers, she was in a room she didn't recognize, unable to move. As she soon discovered, she was in a hospital, her ankle cuffed to the bed, and she was being investigated for abortion.

TMZ has video of Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo playing soccer.
That's nice.
Romo plays indoor soccer every year. EVERY YEAR. In fact, one year he played with former kicker Nick Folk and current teammate Bobby Carpenter. Romo also plays in a YMCA basketball league. Almost every year.
Players need to stay active in the offseason, whether its playing basketball, flag football, softball ... whatever. There's nothing wrong with it. And before you say, "Well he should be working on his game," Romo does.
You hear the stories all the time about how he throws footballs to teammates and friends in his front yard or last year when he went on vacation he took a bunch of footballs with him to throw on the beach. He's also one of the first guys at Valley Ranch ready to work out.
Romo playing soccer, again, is not a big deal.
