Bristol-Myers Squibb is teaming up with Santaris Pharma to discover and develop novel medicines using Santaris Pharma's locked nucleic acid (LNA) drug platform. Santaris Pharma is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing medicines targeted to disease-related mRNAs and microRNAs.
Santaris Pharma will receive an up-front payment of $10 million, up to $90 million in potential milestone payments per product, and funding of ongoing discovery and research activities. In addition, Santaris Pharma will be eligible to receive royalties on the worldwide sales of all medicines arising from the alliance.
The LNA drug platform and drug discovery engine developed by Santaris Pharma combines the company's LNA chemistry with its targeted drug development capabilities to deliver LNA-based drug candidates against RNA targets, both mRNA and microRNA, for a range of diseases including infectious and inflammatory diseases, cardiometabolic disorders, cancer, and rare genetic disorders. The LNA drug platform, according to Santaris, overcomes the limitations of earlier antisense and siRNA technologies to deliver potent single-stranded LNA-based drug candidates across a multitude of disease states.
"We are confident that the unique features of the LNA Drug platform can achieve clinical breakthroughs and look forward to working closely with the Bristol-Myers Squibb team," Henrik Oerum, Ph.D., Santaris Pharma's CSO and vp, business development commented.
Santaris also have an alliance with miRagen Therapeutics going back to June of 2010 to develop microRNA-targeted medicines for the treatment of cardiovascular disease using the LNA drug platform. Back in January of this year, they expanded that alliance, bringing the total number of microRNA targets under the agreement to ten.

US: Wal-Mart to focus on price as Q3 earnings rise
By Katy Askew | 16 November 2012
- Q3 income up 8.7% to US$3.6bn
- Sales rose 3.4% to US$113.9bn
- Same store US sales rose 1.5%
US retailer Wal-Mart has said that it will continue to focus on delivering low prices to drive higher volumes in the remainder of the year, after booking third-quarter sales and earnings gains.
In its third-quarter update, Wal-Mart said income from continuing operations for the quarter was US$3.6bn, up 8.7%. Earnings per share totalled $1.08, up from $0.97 for the comparable period of last year.
Wal-Mart said sales rose 3.4% in the three months, climbing to US$113.9bn. Same store US sales rose 1.5% as the company drove higher volumes through a focus on low prices. International sales were up 2.6%.
Wal-Mart said it had leveraged operating expenses in the three months, which enabled it to reduce costs, improve productivity and invest in price.
CEO Mike Duke indicated that the company would remain highly price-focused, with price a major factor for US customers over the holidays.
"Our strong price position and broad assortment are clear competitive advantages," he said.
"Across all of our markets, we are seeing the same price consciousness as we do in the United States. More customers are part of a growing global middle class, looking for quality, value and a better life, and our EDLP model matters to these customers."
For fiscal 2013, the company tightened and reaffirmed the top end of its earnings per share guidance to a range of $4.88 to $4.93.

Not a pump, I am SERIOUS!
Major catalysts are coming. This will be $2.20 in no time. Very cheap now and above $3.00 within few months, IMO.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
More: I predict $2.75 in December, $3.00 in January, over $4.00 by March.
Catalysts: Hydrogel news, more supportive studies, manufacturing facility/GMP inspection, scaffold human clinicals approval. Yes my opinion but I've been researching this closely.
Mega-buy under $2 and strong-buy under $3,with "buy" at any price under the analysts target price, IMO long term sentiment.

Couldn't Find that but we did find this related to 'paintings':
Jordan Bogash: Tacos, Trout and Chainsaws
I met Jordan Bogash for the first time in a wooded area somewhere within the San Francisco Presidio. By way of introduction, he uncovered a tattoo on his upper butt cheek that read "cream of the crop" in shoddy cursive. At that moment, I realized I had just met a very special human being. Since then, I have seen his art and life take shape in all sorts of fantastical, absurd, dangerous, sometimes sad and hilarious ways. The images he composes immediately elicit a noticeable reaction that is seemingly rare in the field of painting.September 27, 2016
Adam Miller: A Painter of Contemporary Epics
When I moved to New York City a few years back, I suspected that among the clusters of repurposed warehouses in North Brooklyn, there might exist the same type of camaraderie that has driven great art movements of the past. I had heard of a group of young painters developing figurative and narrative works that utilize the rich history of oil painting, and whose friendships intersected over studio visits and the casual sharing of secret techniques and inspirations.September 27, 2016

I would definitely purchase this pen again!

Comments about Parker 5th Mode PK IM in Deep Gunmetal:
I use this Parker when I am in the mood to use a fountain pen knowing that it is always ready to write. It is so easy to hold and the nib has the feel of an actual fountain pen. I absolutely love it!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

A pen with style
By Bravo
from Moseley, VA
I decided to purchase this after using a friend's pen. Initially, I thought it was a fountain pen and had to look closely at the nib to see that it had a different tip. I enjoy writing with fountain pens, but in today's world they are not always practical. This Parker 5th Mode is as close to a fountain pen that I have found. The tip seems to be a type of fiber material but it does not bleed like the fiber pens from years ago. The tip also retains it's shape to provide clean lines of writing.It writes very smoothly and performs well for a "leftie" like me. The pen itself has some weight, which I like in a pen.I placed 4 stars on value as the pen is in the higher end range for production pens. For someone who appreciates innovative and fine writing pens, this should not be much of a factor.I really appreciate it when companies produce innovative products. Parker seems to have done this with the 5th Mode. I have not had it long enough to determine how long refills will last but their price does not seem outrageous.Thanks to Parker for continuing to provide good products and to Levenger for carrying them. It you like a good writing and stylish pen, try this one out.
Parker 5th is phenomenal
By Parker
from Gainesville, FL
I love fountain pens, free flowing smooth writing pens, but I work for a living and fountain pens are just a bit too much effort for day to day use. The Parker fifth fits the bill. It is the smoothest writing "easy" pen I have ever used. Far better than any roller ball and rivals many of my fountain pens. I highly recommend it.
Brilliant Pen, But...
By TomInYork
from York, PA
Parker's execution of the Fifth Mode Pen series is nothing short of brilliant. The PK IM in Gunmetal is stunning, the finish is first class, but the function falls short of five stars, in that the Fifth Mode is little more than a fancy fiber-tip pen in a glamorous package. Even so, this pen would be a sure "keeper" but for the fact that the refills are expensive. It is interesting to note that the Fifth Mode refills appear to be made by the same company as Levenger's roller ball refills; the case size and markings are identical. However, where two roller ball refills cost $9.00, a single Fifth Mode refill costs $8.00. An internet search discloses that Levenger's price for the Fifth Mode refills cannot be bettered by anyone else. Therefore, I would recommend this pen to others, so long as they understand that its refills are somewhat pricey, and it is, in reality, a fiber-tip pen.

Girma Wolde-Giorgis (Ge'ez: ግርማ ወልደ ጊዮርጊስ; born December 1924) is an Ethiopian politician who was the President of Ethiopia from 2001 to 2013.[1] He was the second person to hold the office of President since the founding of the Federal Republic of Ethiopia in 1995.
Political career[edit]
He was elected President on 8 October 2001, as a relative unknown and a surprise choice, by a unanimous vote of the Ethiopian Parliament.[2] The Ethiopian presidency is largely a symbolic office with little power. Most of the power is vested in the hands of the Prime Minister. Presidents serve six-year terms. Girma was re-elected as President on 9 October 2007.[3]
Girma was born in December 1924 in Addis Ababa.[4][5] He first attended an Ethiopian Orthodox Church school and later joined the Teferi Mekonnen School in Addis Ababa where he followed his education until the Italian invasion. The school was then renamed "Scuola Principe di Piemonte" (Prince of Piedmonte School) for the Crown Prince of Italy, in Addis Ababa.
Between 1950 and 1952, he received certificates in Management (from the Netherlands), in Air Traffic Management (in Sweden) and Air Traffic Control (in Canada) under a training programme sponsored by the International Civil Aviation Organization. He was one of the first Ethiopians in the Ethiopian airforce dominated by American technicians. Girma tried to motivate Ethiopians to join the airlines and wrote a book on fundamentals. He was an activist and in the Inter Parliamentary Summit in Yugoslavia, he condemned the apartheid system in South Africa.[6] Girma speaks Afan Oromo (Oromiffa), Amharic, and English fluently.[citation needed]
Personal life[edit]
Girma Wolde-Giorgis is from the plurality Oromo ethnic group. He is married and has five children. Girma is a member of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. He is widely renowned for his usual presence at Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahido Church Meskel Demera Festivals.

In a report published Monday, Brean Capital reiterated its Buy rating and $22.00 price target on Rovi Corporation (NASDAQ: ROVI [FREE Stock Trend Analysis]).
Brean Capital noted, "We would be more aggressive with evidence of further de-risking of the story. We believe that Rovi's core IPG licensing business has the ability to generate strong cash flows, and that management's back to the basic strategy will lead to improved earnings power that prove its current valuation to be overly discounted. However, investors are facing several events in the near future which we believe are holding share prices down including the sale of RES, key renewals and a reinvigoration of DivX, and CE IPG licensing disputes with LG and Phillips. If Rovi can successfully resolve each of these issues in 2013, we believe it will set a base for strong revenue and EPS growth through 2016 on the resolution of OTT licensing disputes and the renewal of service provider IPG licensing agreements with several large MSO. As a result, we reiterate our Buy rating and $22 price target on shares of ROVI, albeit with a healthy degree of near-term caution."
Solid steady buying today in the face of a weak overall market. We could be looking at a $20+/share stock again by early next week.
Sentiment: Strong Buy

NHL Playoffs: Washington Capitals at New York Rangers
One minute into Game 5 the Rangers scored and made it look like the Capitals were going to lose their third straight game, after jumping out two a 2-0 series lead. Washington bounced back though, and held the Rangers scoreless the rest of the night, while picking up a goal of their own to force overtime. The Capitals got it done in the extra period, and secured a 3-2 lead in the series before heading back to New York. This has been an exciting series, and we can expect more of the same from Game 6.

It sounds like the railroad crossing system needs some work and should provide more advanced warning. Clay Boggess http://www.BigEventFundraising.com
- See all comments
MILTON, Ontario — An investigation by the Halton Regional Police Service into an incident last month involving a school bus and a train has revealed that the school bus driver acted responsibly, professionally and with the best interests of the students on board in mind.
On Oct. 27, it was reported that the school bus driver had narrowly avoided a collision with a train at a crossing in Milton. However, the investigation has shown that the school bus stopped as required before the crossing arms at the tracks. The driver listened and looked for any train traffic and when there was no indication that a train was coming, he began to drive the bus across the tracks.
The driver had just started moving the bus forward when signals began to alert the arrival of a service train. The driver of the bus stopped immediately, and the crossing arms at the tracks descended and came in contact with the back half of the bus.
The bus driver was worried that traffic behind him would not be able to see the crossing arms, so he pulled forward to a point where the arms fell behind the bus. An employee of the Canadian Pacific Railway was at the location during the incident and he confirmed that the bus was several meters away from the used service tracks and at no time was anyone in danger.
The students on the bus were reportedly calm during the incident and once the driver reached his scheduled destination, they disembarked without questioning or commenting on the incident. The bus driver then returned to his operation's bus garage and reported the incident to his supervisor.

This Thanksgiving will be wonderful in some ways and sad in others. On a holiday that's all about food, this one will taste bittersweet.
Because we just lost our friend and neighbor Harry. He died the other day at 90, in his home, next door.
I was out of town when it happened, though when I came back, I noticed that his light wasn't on at night - usually a warm yellow glow through the dark branches of the trees, jagged and bare now, like black lightning.

Yesterday we lost one of the most memorial actresses of classic film, Lauren Bacall. She exploded on to the silver screen in 1944 in the film To Have and Have Not as Marie "Slim" Browning opposite Humphry Bogart. Few could forget the sultry look and delivery of one her most famous lines, "You know how to whistle, don't you? You just put your lips together and blow." This film also introduced her to Humphry Bogart the man who would later become her husband, in a life imitates art moment. They were together until his passing in 1957. It is said that she placed a whistle in his coffin as a memorial to the line and film that brought them together. She stared in more than forty-three films in her career. In 2010 she was given an honorary Academy Award of her work in what is termed the Golden Age of Hollywood.
Lauren Bacall
Last night I read that we had lost one of the greats; Robin Williams was no longer with us. When we think of him we most often think of his almost manic comedy. He was one of the best, and perhaps one of the few that could go one on one with the late great Johnathan Winters in comedy improvisation. We know however that Robin Williams was also a great actor. Like many comedians his view of life gave him great insight into the human condition and he was able to bring this to his more serious roles. He will be missed.
Books and Films by Robin Williams
"Narrator: A fiery horse with the speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty "Hi-yo Silver" - the Lone Ranger! With his faithful Indian companion, Tonto, the daring and resourceful masked rider of …..
Wait, wait, wait, wait! – this is not THAT Lone Ranger and perhaps this is one reason why Walt Disney's reboot of the iconographic persona of this legendary western hero did not do as well as expected at the box office. From the moment this new production of The Lone Ranger was announced it was compared with the 1950s television show starring Clayton Moore (and for a short while John Hart) and Jay Silverheels. It seemed it was destined to be a train wreck from the beginning. However, I love trains and as much as I hate to admit it, I'm always willing to look at a train wreck, no matter how much it pains me. So I dutifully checked out this new version of The Lone Ranger and watched it, knowing from the start that it wasn't going to be my Lone Ranger and Tonto
Eddie and the Cruisers is the story of a fictional band from the early '60s, their rise to fame and the death of their leader and chief wordsmith, Eddie Wilson. The story itself seems to be inspired by two real life events; the death of Doors lead singer Jim Morrison and the sudden decision by Brian Wilson of The Beach Boys to shelve the band's album Smile. Like singer Jim Morrison, Eddie Wilson is a master in putting words and music together in ways that convey feeling while still containing the drive and energy to make a great song. Like Brian Wilson, Eddie is forward thinking in his writing style and wants to produce a piece that is not simply rock and roll, but something that will be remembered for all time even if it is vastly different than anything he has done before.
Over the weekend we lost one of my favorite film and television stars, James Garner. He is perhaps best known for his starring roles in the television series Maverick and The Rockford Files. His film roles were varied, often funny, but almost always heartwarming. The link below will provide you with list of movies and books in the MCPL collection featuring this well beloved star.
James Garner – A list of DVDs and Books
The 10th Kingdom is another in my list of movies and shows that I try to watch every year. I have a lot of those and honestly I don't succeed in watching more than one or two of them over again each year. The 10th Kingdom is partially why this happens. Being a three part mini-series, it takes up much of the time I would use to watch some of my other favorites.
The 10th Kingdom takes place mainly in the magical land of the Nine Kingdoms or as we would call it, the fairy tale worlds of old. Rebellion and war are afoot. Prince Wendell is soon to be crowned king of Snow White's former Kingdom; however his wicked step mother, the Queen, has escaped her prison and joined with the leader of the Troll Kingdom who wants to expand his territory.
The Amish are most often thought of in regards to their strict religion, quality workmanship, and their horse and buggy culture. One aspect of their culture and beliefs that has not been well known until recently is the practice of "rumspringa" [running around]. This is a rite of passage given to Amish teens in which they are allowed to experience the ways of the world, or as the title of the documentary suggests "The Devil's Playground," for a period of one year. These young adults are allowed to experience the enticements of living in a technological word but they are often also exposed for the first time to the world of drugs, alcohol, sexual pleasure and crime. At the end of the year they choose whether to return to the Amish culture and its lifestyle or to remain in the outside world and its ways.
I've always liked films and plays that are about films and plays themselves. Maybe it's because there is still a part of me that would have like to have been "an actor." (Said term must be pronounced with the air of exaggerated sophistication that implies the lack of same.) Noises Off is one of my favorites. It has an all-star comedy cast featuring Michael Caine, Carol Burnett, Denholm Elliott, Julie Hagerty, Marilu Henner, John Ritter, and Christopher Reeve. The story is about a group of actors in a touring company performing a comedic play that they hope will head to the big time. In this case the action behind the scenes is as funny, or funnier, than what is taking place on stage. The film gives us a chance to the see the action from both sides. From the front we see the play "Nothing On," from the back we see the interactions among the actors. There are affairs, personality conflicts, and drinking to the point of drunkenness. The term "noises off" comes from the direction that backstage sounds are to cease, something that doesn't exactly happen backstage in the movie.
Noises Off is a comedy based on the play by Michael Frayn. It is a fast paced and driven movie that reminds me quite a bit of some of the best skits from the Carol Burnett Show. In most plays backstage is an area of controlled chaos. In the case of the backstage action in Noises Off remove the word controlled. If you like a good, semi intelligent comedy mixed with slapstick and outrageous personalities you should give Noises Off a try.
"Well, I've wrestled with reality for 35 years, Doctor, and I'm happy to state I finally won out over it."
Elwood P. Dowd.
Jimmy Stewart once said that his role as Elwood P. Dowd in Harvey was one of his favorites. It is perhaps his most famous movie role beside that of George Bailey in "It's a Wonderful Life." Harvey is a laid back and enjoyable film about a man who has left the work-a-day world and apparently entered into a life of unreality.Read more »
In the 1960's one of the top rated TV shows of the time was a comedy about the unusual subject of a prisoner of war camp in Nazi Germany. The show was the story was about a group of prisoners in Stalag 13 whose mission was to conduct secret operations behind enemy lines. It was known as Hogan's Heroes. The film Auto Focus is not about this television show but about its star who found himself in the public's eye and being held up to public as the example of the ideal family man. His life and his actions were anything but ideal.

His English family (who knew him very little), and his faithful agent and champion of his work, are gathered together for the funeral. Sorodin's loyal valet gradually reveals that all may not be as it seemed, and a series of extraordinary characters arrive, causing increasing dismay to the great man's heirs.

Photo -Laurel ?
I think this is a photo of a house on 16th Avenue in Laurel, Mississippi. When I say it I really thought about that particular building. I think it is a place that sells sound equipment. I will send it to my cousin to see if she recognizes the building.

Take Bob Harper's 24-Hour Vegan Challenge
As one of America's toughest trainers, The Biggest Loser's Bob Harper is hardcore. He's taken 100 pounds off a man in a mere seven weeks (remember Rudy?), breaks contestants down and builds them back up during Last Chance Workouts, and gives us the skinny with his Trainer Tips on NBC. Now he's focused on challenging the country to a 24-hour vegan cleanse.
Bob's latest tweet reads, "Your Challenge today is to go the next 24 hours, starting now eliminating ALL animal products. Good for your heart AND the environment!!"
Go vegan? But how? Well, in the famed words of Bob himself, "Just stop talking and do it!" Or, you know, a vegetarian/vegan starter kit works just as well.

Going vegan is so easy. In fact most people eat vegan meals during the day anyways and don't even notice oatmeal and OJ pb and j sandwiches snacks fruit… Go Vegan!!
24 hours? I am going for 24 years. D
Hi I've been vegetarian for the last 10 years now. I want to try the vegan diet for a while. I like cheese though and I eat eggs free range of course how do I do it? Is it all in the mind?
I went vegan without a starterkit or challenge but if they really help to encourage people… Great! D
I went vegan in November of 2009 one of the best changes in my life! I feel great my skin is great I no longer contribute to the horrible actions that take place in slaughter houses. Go vegan today!
I just learned Reuben was vegan and now Bob Harper is too? Very nice
I noticed that when I went vegan I felt so much lighter and energtic.

The CPU has been improved from the 1.24 GHz stock frequency to a whopping 3.24 GHz.
The GPU has also been increased form the regular 550 MHz to 800 MHz.

Photo: Bill Cosby Wears Skin-Tight Oregon Jersey
March 4th, 2014| by Lost Lettermen
While he was in Eugene this past weekend for a stand-up show, Bill Cosby stopped by the University of Oregon athletic department and temporarily traded in his trademark sweater for a Ducks football jersey.
It was a snug fit, to say the least. Then again, it'd be unfair for us to expect the 76-year-old Cosby to be around the same weight he was at when he was a fullback at Temple in the 1960s.

State-owned Chinese insurer raises $3.1bn in Hong Kong float
The People's Insurance Company (Group) of China on Friday raised $3.1bn in a flotation on the Hong Kong stock exchange, selling 6.9 billion shares at HK$3.48 ($0.45) apiece, at the lower end of a previously indicated price range of HK$3.42 to HK$4.03.
Eighteen so-called "cornerstone investors" - including American International Group, Scor, Tokio Marine and Russia-based Ingosstrakh Insurance - accounted for more than half of the shares sold, purchasing shares worth $1.82bn and pledging not to sell their holdings for six months.
The giant state-owned Chinese insurer tapped 17 banks as underwriters on the initial public offering, with Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, Credit Suisse, China International Capital Corporation and HSBC serving as the global coordinators.

Meet Your Faculty
Attending graduate school is one of the best investments you will ever make in yourself and your future. While the benefits related to personal development and growth are priceless, you can also expect your MSOD degree to expand your career options and enhance your earning power in the marketplace. According to O*Net, a federal tracking/clearinghouse of domestic occupations, the MSOD degree path is one that has a strong positive outlook for growth over the next two decades.
Remember, completing your MSOD is an investment in yourself and your career. Be sure to consider not only the total cost of your education, but think about how that total breaks down in terms of monthly costs, which can make your investment feel more manageable and affordable.
Graduate tuition for the 2016-2017 academic year is $898 per credit. You can expect that cost to rise by approximately 3.5% per year in the future.
Most graduate students are working professionals who take courses part-time. The MSOD degree requires completion of a total of 30 credits.
Based on current tuition rates, the estimated total tuition cost of your Edgewood College MSOD degree would be approximately $26,940.
Graduate students are eligible for financial aid in the form of Federal Stafford Loans. Learn more about Stafford Loans, including eligibility requirements and application instructions.
Our admissions and financial aid counselors have worked with thousands of students who have questioned how they could afford to complete their graduate education. They will use their experience to suggest creative solutions for financing your education. We work with students and organizations to manage tuition reimbursement plans, extend tuition discounts to various corporate partners in the region, offer third party billing and monthly payment plans, and work with veterans to maximize their available aid.

Catalogue entry
[from] Nos. 177–94: Small Thames Sketches c. 1807
THESE eighteen sketches of various sizes, painted on mahogany veneer, are all from the Turner Bequest. They were included in the 1854 Schedule as Nos. 184 to 200*, '18 fragments various sizes on Veneers—or thin panels'; in the 1856 Schedule no. 200* [N05534], was inadvertently omitted. They were first numbered, laid down on panels, cleaned and exhibited in 1908 and 1910.
The identifiable subjects of these sketches are all on the Thames or its tributary the Wey; several of the Guildford and Godalming views were identified in 1970 by Christopher Pinsent, including No. 186 [N02309], formerly thought to show Windsor Castle. The same area, with the exception of Walton Bridges, is covered by drawings in the 'Windsor, Eton' sketchbook and the 'Wey, Guildford' sketchbook (XCVII and XCVIII).
The small Thames sketches on panel, like these two sketchbooks, were dated c. 1807 by Finberg (1909, i, pp. 251, 253, and 1961, p. 137), a date that still seems most probable. However, in 1969 Gage divided the sketches into three groups and dated them all later. His first group, Nos. 179–80 [N02308, N02306], 183 [N02305], 187–92 and 194 [N02311], he associates with the 'Wey, Guildford' sketchbook but dates c. 1809–10. His second group, Nos. 184 [N02680] and 185 [N02681], he dates c. 1811–12. His third group comprises Nos. 177 [N02312], 178 [N02678], 181 [N02313], 182 [N02679] and 186 [N02309] and is dated by him to c. 1813 or even later, on account of a supposed similarity to the foliage of Crossing the Brook, exhibited in 1815 (No. 130 [N00497]), and a greater accomplishment than the small oil sketches on paper of Devonshire subjects done in 1813 (Nos. 213–25). The Devonshire sketches, however, are not strictly comparable in either technique or general approach, and again it seems more likely that, as is argued in the case of the large Thames sketches on canvas (Nos. 160–176), the whole group represents a single campaign playing a crucial part in the rapid development of Turner's approach to nature in the exhibited pictures of 1807 and 1808. Indeed, in 1983 (exh. cat., Paris 1983–4, pp. 78–9 no. 20), Gage dated No. 186 to c. 1807 and conceded that Turner seemed to have ceased painting the small Thames sketches on mahogany veneer by about 1811.
These sketches were probably done out-of-doors, perhaps from a small boat as the younger Trimmer described, even though he talks of Turner using 'a large canvas' (see p. 116). In them Turner approaches nearest to what Constable termed 'a natural painter', but, unlike Constable, Turner always seems to have been interested in making a complete pictorial composition even when he came closest to recording a direct experience of nature.

10 Ways To Eat Brinner (Breakfast For Dinner)
Breakfast Pizza: Personally, we can eat pizza any time, night or day, but we love to change things up and make it fresh each time. We keep frozen, risen crusts on hand and they're the perfect vessel to hold typical breakfast foods. Make it with a pesto, a marinara, or even a white gravy, no matter how you slice it, it's good eats! 2. How To Make A Breakfast Burrito: We love food that's self contained and this version can even forgo the dinner table if needs be. Breakfast burritos also carry the ability to use up leftovers in your refrigerator such as stray meats and veggies! 3. Cheddar and Green Chile Waffles with Thyme Maple Syrup: Waffles for dinner, well there's just nothing better. The bonus to eating this carb-loaded treat is you don't have to feel guilty for the nap that's sure to follow! 4. Fresh & Light: 12 Breakfast Casseroles: Casseroles are beautiful things. They can be prepared and left in the refrigerator for your return home, just waiting for you to toss them in the oven. They feed a hungry mob and still leave you time to help kids with homework or put your feet up and relax while they bake! 5. Fluffy Ricotta Pancakes: Although the rich and heavy waffles above might leave you sedated for awhile, these light and airy ricotta pancakes will leave you with a spring in your step and wondering why you don't make them more often! 6. Potato Pancakes: There isn't really a time of day that potato pancakes aren't appropriate, but you can feed a family of 4 for just a few dollars. They freeze great and are hearty and filling for hungry tummies! 7.

To make your daily beauty regimen less of a pain and more of a pleasurable experience, check these easy practices off your to-do list. Replace products before you run out. Nothing ruins a day faster when you've discovered that you've used the last of your favorite cleansing milk or mascara the day before. Always have an extra container of favorite products on hand. Begin the day with a clean, well-prepped face. When you start your morning free of residual makeup and a moisturized face, it pays off with faster, easier makeup application, which explains why beauty editors nag you to make sure you cleanse thoroughly and moisturize at night. Have fresh disposables (cotton balls, swabs) at hand. Choose a beautiful crystal container or a cute small basket to store your daily beauty necessities so they're instantly accessible. No digging under the sink or the back of drawers! Buy high-quality, reusable containers. Bottles, tubes and palettes that don't cooperate by letting you get to the product you want are beyond annoying: Buy your own replacements and transfer the stuff you use regularly into them. Keep tools and brushes clean. In a pinch, that can mean just wiping them down with rubbing alcohol on a tissue after use, but when you can, give them a bath in gentle detergent and then air dry. Fresh brushes help makeup go on more smoothly and evenly. Have a neat, functional storage system. In addition to keeping your daily disposables easily accessible, figure out a way to organize the products you use regularly to minimize rooting around. Use drawer dividers, for example, to corral small items and put the ones you use daily upfront. Dispose of unloved and past-their-prime products. This is another aspect of being organized and minimizing clutter: Don't save products that have started to separate, turn rancid or clump. And if you don't like something and know you won't use it, overcome the guilt and either give it away or throw it out! Enhance your space with fragrance. Put a few drops of a relaxing essential oil like lavender on the headband you use while washing. Add a scented candle or flowers to your countertop. Adjust your lighting. Okay, this one can get pricey if you go all out and upgrade your makeup space with expensive salon-style fixtures. But you don't have to call an electrician to change to a warmer fluorescent bulb or change the wattage to create a softer, more pleasant beauty workspace. Create a beauty ritual that works for you, morning and evening. The less you need to ponder each time you cleanse and treat your skin, the better. Experiment until you know what products you want to apply in what order. Fewer decisions, less stress. Read More
