Essential for making chocolate
This cacao butter smells divine! I use it to make my own chocolate. The fact that it melts at about body temperature enables you to make your very own raw, organic chocolate using this butter along with the cacao powder from Navitas Naturals, vanilla, and a sweetener, like raw honey or agave. Later I will try to mix a little of this cacao butter into jojoba oil or avocado oil and use it as body butter. I have a cacao butter lip balm, and that's very good on sore, chapped lips.

Have you noticed that they've changed the name? It doesn't say "raw cacao butter" anymore. But they didn't change the price....

I like this cacao butter very much. Made some lovely almond white choc slice, it was lovely. Also I use some in my body lotion and skin feels so soft. iHerb provide me with good customer service, item always packed well and fast DHL service, Thanks!
Great to eat, great for skincare
Posted by CookForHealthNL on Aug 31, 2015
I bought this to make raw chocolate. The quality is excellent and it is very tasty. Love it. Unfortunately the whole raw thing is not my cup of tea. On organic, raw products grow fungi, since they don't use fungicides. Those fungi cause health problems for me. So... the raw chocolate mania was over. Then I used the cocoabutter to bake a cake. Great, but a little expensive. So I decided to use the rest of it for skincare. It smells good, it repairs.

Face the Music at Make Music New YorkPosted by s21concerts in Concert Announcement, tags: face the music, kaufman music center, live music, make music new york
Kaufman Music Center's "alt-classical" youth ensemble Face the Music will perform at Make Music New York on Friday, June 21, 6:30 pm. The program includes works by Adams, Didorenko, Bernard Roumain & Joe Jordan (student).
The only student ensemble in New York City dedicated to performing music by living classical composers, Face the Music has been praised by the New York Times for its "stunning performances" of music by contemporary composers and hailed by critics as "polished, exuberant" (New York Times) and one of "New York's favorite contemporary-classical ensembles" (Time Out New York). Since its founding in 2005, the ensemble has taken its place as a full-fledged player in New York City's vibrant contemporary classical scene, rapidly becoming what Allan Kozinn of the New York Times has called "a force in the New York new-music world."

Dec. 6 @ 1:30 PM ET - VH1: A fictional, intimate tribute to two of the most influential figures in music history, taking a speculative, bittersweet look at one of the most enduring myths of the rock era.
The date is Saturday, April 24, 1976, and the place is New York City, John Lennon's adopted home. Paul McCartney is in town, playing a string of sold-out concerts at Madison Square Garden in the midst of a smash worldwide tour with his band Wings, hot on the heels of his #1 album, "Wings at the Speed of Sound." Six years after the Beatles played their final notes together, promoters are offering them outlandish sums to reunite, and the air is filled with rampant speculation about its possibility. Amid the buzz, Paul's limo tools aimlessly through the streets of the city, and winds up at The Dakota.
While Lennon has also recorded numerous chart hits through the '70s, he is, in Paul's words, "not to be found," having virtually shut himself off to the world at large after years of well-publicized legal troubles and inner turmoil. Facing his former friend and colleague, Paul's trademark air of goodwill and nonchalance is at first belied by his nervousness as he proffers tickets to the Wings shows -- and tentatively brings up the subject of a Beatles reunion.
After his own shock of the moment, John reveals himself to be volatile as ever, at turns annoyed, mocking, warm, devilish, mystifying, playful, cruel, sincere, angry, hilarious, intense, insecure, combative and always unpredictable. "I'm out of the game, all right?" he glares. "From the time I was twenty-two, I've been under contract. My life has been ruled by somebody else. That's how long it's taken me to finally gain control over my own life, and nobody's gonna take it away from me."
But he's also intrigued and perhaps somewhat in need of Paul's visit.
And later in the evening, after a "Saturday Night Live" skit pokes fun at the Beatles reunion offers, John and Paul prepare to deliver the musical shock of all time.

New York's Occupant Restraint laws require the following:
Children up to the age of 4 must be properly restrained in a federally approved child safety seat that is attached to a vehicle by a seat belt or universal child restraint anchorage (LATCH) system.
Children less than age 4 but weighing more than 40 poundsmay be restrained in a booster seat with a lap/shoulder safety belt. However, a child safety seat that accommodates higher weights can be used.
Children ages 4, 5, 6 and 7 must be properly secured in an appropriate child restraint system, one for which the child meets the height and weight recommendations of the child restraint manufacturer.*
An appropriate child restraint system is one that meets the child's size and weight recommended by the manufacturer.
A vehicle's safety belt is NOT a child restraint system.
Children riding in booster seats must be secured with a combination lap/shoulder seat belt, NEVER secure a child in a booster seat with only a lap belt.
From the age of 8 until they reach their 16th birthday, children must be restrained in a seat belt whenever they ride in a vehicle. All Front seat passengers must be properly restrained at all times, regardless of age.
Children 12 years and younger should ride in the back seat. By simply buckling up your child in the back seat reduces his/her risk of death by 33%.
*It is recommended that booster seats be used until your child is 4 foot 9 inches tall or weighs 100 pounds.
Child Safety Seats
Child Passenger Restraints Are Not An Option,
They Are The Law!
Effective November 24, 2009- All Children MUST be restrained in an
appropriate child restraint system while riding in a motor vehicle,
until they reach their 8th birthday.
Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death among children in the United States.
Child safety seats reduce the risk of fatal injury by 71 percent for infants and by 54 percent for toddlers in passenger cars.
Everyday in the United States during 2009, an average of 3 children age 14 and younger were killed and 490 were injured in motor vehicle crashes.
Results of child safety seat checks conducted throughout New York State in the last year revealed the "misuse rate" of child safety seats is more than 90 percent!
You can have your child's car seat checked for correct installation by a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician at a fitting station. To find one near you go to www.safeny.ny.gov

Sony Computer Entertainment has released a new firmware for its PlayStation 3 game console that enables support of Blu-ray 3D movies (BD 3D) playback. The company hopes that this would boost popularity of its Bravia stereo-3D HDTVs as well as stereoscopic 3D (S3D) technology in general.
The PlayStation 3 firmware version 3.50 enables playback of Blu-ray 3D movies on the PS3 provided that appropriate TV-sets and HDMI are used. The BD 3D playback support comes with a number of limitations, including lack of lossless audio support during playback of S3D movies, possible issues with menus as well as possible issues with BD-J feature.
The firmware update momentarily transforms millions of PlayStation 3 video game consoles into BD 3D players, an exceptional move to popularize the new stereo-3D standard. Still given the fact that in order to enjoy Blu-ray 3D movies a new TV-set along with special glasses are required and there are virtually no movies available, the update will hardly make any actual difference for the market in short-term.
Earlier this year Sony enabled stereo-3D video games on its PS3 console.

Hey Mike, do you know anything about this? A couple of weeks ago this rummour appeared on other site (maccareport.com) about the On the run tour visiting Latin America. I'm just gonna copy/paste the info:
March 10, 2012 -- Macca Report News EXCLUSIVE!!
from Miguel Carrera & Ricardo Chilabert, Macca Reporters
Macca's Latin American Tour
Unconfirmed reports are circulating that Paul will play Colombia on May 5th and Guadalajara on May 7. (first posted on The Macca Report)
Other places that are being considered for the South American tour are, Paraguay and Costa Rica and Argentina.
More dates planned for Mexico... two shows for Mexico City!
I didn't want to post anything about it since a few weeks ago I posted local information about a possible concert in Chichen Itza and still nothing has been announced though local government said it was for sure. But this is more likely, who knows? I'm excited bout I'm not gonna believe it until I see it officially announced.

Richard Lehman's journal review – 7 March 2011
7 Mar, 11 | by BMJ Group
JAMA 2 Mar 2011 Vol 305
913 A friend recently began a piece on outcomes research with Bishop Joseph Butler's maxim, "Every thing is what it is, and not some other thing." If a trial like SOLVD is designed to measure the effect of a particular ACE inhibitor on survival in people with symptomatic left systolic heart failure, it is not the same thing as a trial designed to measure the effect of a beta-blocker following myocardial infarction. The only thing these trials have in common is that they lower blood pressure in people with established cardiovascular disease. Meta-analysts should remember Butler's maxim. It is simply not legitimate to combine such dissimilar studies, plus a few from the diabetes literature, and use them to generalise about something called "secondary prevention of cardiovascular disease by antihypertensive treatment in persons without hypertension." The terms are far too broad, and the analysis also doesn't adjust for the use of other secondary preventive medication such as aspirin and statins. The effect sizes derived are small but positive – but that means nothing. Nor can I see anything in this misguided lump of disparate studies that can justify an editorial called "antihypertensive therapy for prehypertension". In the case of the heart failure studies, the patients were more likely to have prehypotension. This is what happens when lumping goes mad: every thing becomes some other thing. more…

FIA World Rally Championship
Hyundai Motorsport's entry into the FIA World Rally Championship has been met with equal amounts of excitement and intrigue. Few would have believed that any manufacturer could start a brand new World Rally team from scratch in such an incredibly short space of time but Hyundai Motor Company has always thrived on being the exception rather than the rule. And so, just twelve months since the establishment of Hyundai Motorsport GmbH in December 2012, the team is ready to make its competitive debut on the global rally stage.
The fit with Hyundai Motor Company and World Rally is extremely natural. Hyundai is already a name engaged with sports thanks to its successful partnership with FIFA, which will in 2014 see Hyundai sponsor the FIFA World Cup in Brazil. Motorsport, however, is a perfect home for a car manufacturer, and the World Rally Championship is one of the world's toughest, most technically demanding series that puts engineering excellence at its very core.
Hyundai Motor's Namyang technical research centre in Hwaseong City, Gyeonggi Province, Korea, a world-class integrated R&D facility which employs over 10,000 researchers in total, was given the task to develop the first iteration of a rally car based on the new i20.
When the first version of the car was unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in September 2012, it took the world by surprise. Nobody had anticipated that Hyundai Motor Company was ready to venture into the world of motor racing, let alone with such an ambitious project: to establish its own in- house WRC team based in Europe.
Text by HYUNDAI MOTORSPORT GMBH.
Global Operations
As the employer of over 90,000 workers worldwide, Hyundai Motor is implementing a new global policy aimed at localization in terms of product development, design, sales and marketing to fully satisfy local customers' tastes.
With the completion of its third plant in China and a new plant in Brazil in 2012, Hyundai Motor currently has seven manufacturing bases outside of Korea in Brazil, China, the Czech Republic, India, Russia, Turkey and the U.S., with a combined production capacity of about 4.42 million units a year (Korea: 1.86 million / Overseas: 2.65 million).

Here's the pics of the pizza made with 50% whole grains. I used 33% stone ground rye and 17% stone ground whole wheat with a 68% hydration rate.The recipe:400 gm GM Harvest King bread flour268 gm Hodgson mills stone ground whole rye flour132 gm Hodgson mills stone ground whole wheat flour800 gm Villa Roma
Villa, Have you tried using the Hodgson Mills Whole Wheat White flour for a pizza dough? I'm thinking 25% HM whole wheat white and 25% MH Rye with 50% Harvest King or Ceresota AP. Any thoughts? TIA, Bryan
Bryan....I can't get American white whole wheat here unless I order it from the states. I can only get what they stock at the commissary so I use German white whole wheat that I get from a local bakery. It's milled really fine and I made a 100% whole wheat pizza with it and Hodgsons mills stone ground graham flour mixed 50/50. See below picture. I cooked it in my kitchen oven at 500 degrees. It came out good but it needs more heat. Next time I'll go with the LBE at 625+. Villa Roma
and colon clogging white flour! Villa Roma
Villa, Do you have a link or could you shed some more info for me? Thanks, Man

There was another chain that copied Shakeys, it was called Shotgun Sams and it was virtually the same product. If you have this info. I wopuld be interested to communicate with you. Sincerely, Jim Thykeson

Shakey was in world war II where he developed Malaria which gave him the Shakes.....thus the Name Shakey's.....he just move to the Philippines in the early 1980's and is the biggest pizza chain there now.....I Just ate a Shakey's pizza there about 6 months ago...exactly the same as in the '70's but really the sauce is more Grease than sauce....JUST LIKE MAZZIO's.....you know the industry practice is to brush on Bacon Grease ....ON TOP ....to melt the cheese faster.....YUCK>..makes me eat more frozen pizza.....Cholesterol City... Shotgun Sams had real sauce.....and corn meal on the bottom...how ever the business was left the the son and daugther in the late '70's and the remodled and remodeled and run the business in to the ground.

A Sharecare.com expert weighs in.
Q: I�m afraid my efforts to lose weight will hurt my marriage. Can you help? A: Don�t let your spouse�s fear of change (or love of carbs) keep you from becoming healthier. Keep it collaborative�don�t get preachy. Remember that by taking care of yourself, you�re taking care of the relationship. These specific suggestions can help: Communicate honestly. Tell your partner what you�re trying to do, but don�t expect immediate buy-in. You may be OK with having steamed veggies for dinner, but he or she may not feel the same�don�t push your agenda. Continue eating together, even if you and your spouse are eating different foods. Create something like a salad that you can enjoy together, and then you can each have your own entr�e. Try to be active together. If you are taking a walk on a weekend, ask him or her to come along, but don�t guilt your partner into exercising. Don�t do a cupboard purge without asking. Your better half is going to be angry if the goodies suddenly disappear. �Dr. Ramani Durvasula, Psychologist,�Professor, California State University,�Los Angeles Click here to go back to All the Answers, June 2013.

"Humanity is brushing up against ecological limits", "natural resources are dwindling", "unsustainable consumption increases" – whatever the chosen term or headline, the fact is that the concept of overshoot has gotten a lot of media attention recently. The past few months have seen stories in The New Yorker, the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal among others, all reflecting a growing awareness that carbon is only part of the overshoot story.
In a New York Times Op-Ed column "What's Your Consumption Factor," (January 2, 2008), Jared Diamond, author of the recent book Collapse, discusses the importance of the number 32: that's the difference in the rate at which people in the industrialized nations consume resources and produce waste compared to those in the non-industrialized world. "If the whole developing world were suddenly to catch up," Diamond writes. "It would be as if the world population ballooned to 72 billion people."
The good news, according to Diamond, is that our consumption contributes little to the most vital quality-of-life indicators, factors like life expectancy, infant mortality, access to medical care, financial security after retirement and quality public education. He also argues that we know how to extract fish from the ocean and timber from the forests in a way that is sustainable – we just haven't put this knowledge into practice. Ultimately, he says, it is certain that developed nations will soon be forced to consume less, while the developing world will consume more. "These are desirable trends, not horrible prospects," he says.
The Wall Street Journal takes up the issue of resource limits in "New Limits to Growth Revive Malthusian Fears" (March 24, 2008). As the world grows more populous – and prosperous – the demand for our limited resources "has soared. If supplies don't keep pace, prices are likely to climb further, economic growth in rich and poor nations could suffer, and some fear violent conflicts could ensue." Some of the resources – such as arable land and fresh water – have no substitutes, the authors say. Others, like coal, have negative environmental impacts like contributing to global warming that limit their utility. Economics and technology may play a part in the solution, the authors say, but ultimately, consumer behavior will have to change.
In The New Yorker article "Big Foot" (February 25, 2008), Michael Specter poses the question: how do we measure our environmental impact? "Possessing an excessive carbon footprint is becoming the equivalent of wearing a scarlet letter," he says. At the same time, he writes, "the calculations required to assess the full environmental impact of how we live can be dazzlingly complex." He assesses pros and cons of some of the measures being adopted to address climate change, from the personal – making certain product choices, eating local, driving less – to the political, in the form of taxes, economic incentives and laws.

Prior to recently discovering Burberry Body which is now my everyday fragrance, I always wore Burberry Weekend. Being a horsewoman, when I first discovered it, I immediately smelled alfalfa, oats & molasses, clean air and leather. Its a very rich fragrance that works beautifully with my body chemistry and I reach for my riding boots whenever I wear it! I still love this fragrance, but now wear it for special occasions. This is a unique fragrance, very complex, and suited to the adventurous and confident woman.
Written by Barbara at Sapphire Studio on April 18, 2014
I've purchased Burberry's WEEKEND on several different occasions, and it never disappoints. The scent lasts for hours, and is perfect for the office or a night out. I would describe it as a sexy oriental-type musk, and is definitely the scent to wear if you want to be remembered.

A visionary work of comic art for the ages. Readers who haven't discovered Jim Woodring's "Frank" stories have a colossal treat waiting for them. Since 1991, these lusciously rendered, hypnotic fables have dazzled comics readers the world over. Now, for the first time, Fantagraphics will collect all the Frank stories in one massive and deluxe tome, The Frank Book. Between its handsome cloth covers are 344 pages of Frank comics, drawings and oddities. A fancy dustjacket, swoon-inducing endpapers and ribbon bookmark make this book a decorative object as well as a repository of storytelling genius. Frank is a unique, visionary comic, exquisitely drawn and so fully realized that readers find themselves drawn deeply into Woodring's hallucinatory mindscape. The stories, almost entirely wordless, are told with brilliant, candy colors that people of all ages find alluring. Is The Frank Book a book for children? For some children, certainly: smart, secure children who enjoy a good puzzle and aren't too upset by a little grim mayhem. This is strong stuff, in places. What are the stories about? It's impossible to say... clued-in readers all agree they are about something, but the world of Frank must be experienced to be understood.
Who is Frank? Another unanswerable question. Does it explain him to say that he is an 11-year-old generic anthropomorph who lives in a force-laden landscape called the Unifactor? That he is curious but not smart, naïve but not noble? That his most outstanding character trait is his ineducability? What of Pupshaw, Frank's semi-subservient housedog-like godling? Or Manhog, the bloated bladder of sin with a heart of radiance? Who can explain the platonic Jerry Chickens, or the lachrymose Lucky? Does it explain things to say that Frank has a Real Pa and a Faux Pa, and that they are indistinguishable? The world will little note nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget The Frank Book. This definitive collection is the very best way to give, receive and experience one of the great cartoon achievements of the 20th century. 9g pages full color.

Fletcher: Argentina is better in song than in economic policy
In Argentina, there is a very strong populist movement. This political manifestation is characterized by class warfare and the demonization of the more affluent economic classes for political gain.
We really wouldn't have much knowledge of Argentina in this country if it hadn't been for the enormously popular musical "Evita."
"Evita" is the story of a beautiful young courtesan of the same name who was the consort and later the wife of Argentine Army Col. Juan Peron. In the pre-World War II years, the Argentina Army modeled itself after the army of the Third Reich of Germany.
There is a long political history in Argentina of political repression and dictatorships. There is an equally long history of government corruption and political repression. A truism in Argentina is that "no man's freedom nor money are safe while Congress is in session."
On Nov.21, 2008, the Argentina government nationalized all private pensions ostensibly to pay its out of control national debt. Government just took the pension assets, promising a retirement stipend when and if citizens reached retirement age. If you didn't make it to retirement, they just kept your money.
It works pretty much the same way with Social Security here where, to use an example of a single person for simplicity, you pay in during your career and if you die one day before your retirement date, then the government keeps your contribution. But, this wasn't Social Security in Argentina, it was money in savings accounts and in stocks and bonds owned by private individuals like you and me.
As it happens, our cumulative savings outside of Social Security in this country is roughly equal to our national debt.
Now back to that community organizer Eva Peron. She got her husband Juan elected as president and virtual dictator of Argentina by promising wealth redistribution to the masses of poor, largely urban folks. She was the darling of the people. Fast forward to Christina Kirchner, the current president of Argentina, who is commonly compared to "Evita" because she has a similar history all the way back to her college years when she belonged to the Peronist Youth movement.
The question comes up, would our community organizer, redistributionist president be thinking about our IRAs, 401(k)s, and private (Company sponsored) pension plans as a source to pay off our national debt? Remember, we now are in the same league as Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece and Spain. After all, we would still be getting a pension guaranteed by the U.S. Isn't that really the same thing?
Well, actually not. Most of us with private pension and retirement holdings plan to pass on some of the principal associated with those holdings on to our heirs. We aren't planning so closely that we will have expended the last cent of our savings to pay for our last gasp of oxygen. We have a buffer in there for the contingency that we might outlive the actuarial tables and need the cash which we earned and which we saved to live in a comfortable lifestyle considering our age at the time.
What did Mrs. Kirchner do with the expropriated money in Argentina? She paid off the very large, over hanging debt, didn't she? Well, actually not. The debt still plagues Argentina and the money was used for current infrastructure repairs. It just got redistributed.
At its current rate, all of our private retirement savings in America won't cover the projected national debt by the end of the Obama Administration.
"Don't cry for me, Argentina."

With only 70 students in kindergarten through 12th grade, Walton School faced closure. People in the small Kansas town saw the school as "the only thing standing between their community and a future as a ghost town, writes Susan Headden. The district turned it into a K-4 charter school, the Walton Rural Life Center, with a hands-on curriculum linked to farming.
One of only two such elementary schools in the country, Walton, which now has 170 students (it pulls from outside the district), is considered an unqualified success. It scores in the top 5 percent on the state's standardized achievement tests; it has been celebrated by the U.S. Department of Education; and educators come from across the country to learn its secrets. The school is so popular that its waiting list, now at 40, extends as far out as 2015. Some parents try to register their children while they are still in the womb.
Natise Vogt, the principal, says her school "is not out to produce the next generation of American farmers."
Walton picked agriculture for three simple reasons: kids love it, Kansas is a farm state, and as it turns out, there is almost nothing in elementary education that can't be explained by relating it to cows and plows.
Take eggs. If second-grade teacher Staci Schill were running a standard classroom, she would be drilling her students on double-digit addition with the help of a prescribed textbook. There is still some of this kind of instruction, but building lessons around the agricultural theme lets kids see how they use their math facts in daily life. In this case, the students sell eggs produced by a small coop of hens. Every morning they rush out to collect and wash the eggs, inspect them for cracks, and box them for sale for $2 a dozen. (They recently bought a sheep with the proceeds.) The students learn not just how to tell the difference between a Delaware Blue and a Rhode Island Red, but also about profit and loss and, when the chickens don't lay enough to meet projections, supply and demand.
Walton kids take their rulers and protractors to everything from tractor tires to goat horns. They learn their ounces, cups, and pints by measuring grain for animal feed and oats for granola. Math and science come alive with trips to the grain elevator and a cruise inside a modern tractor, complete with GPS. The fourth-graders recently made a mockup of a wind turbine, learning about things like torque and the behavior of different blades.
Walton is attracting students with disabilities such as Asperger's syndrome and attention deficit disorder: 25 percent of students have special needs, nearly double the rate for the district.

Upper Peninsula
Marquette: Boat anglers are trolling in shallow waters 60 to 100 feet deep. Catch rates for trout and salmon were slow. Surface water temperatures are in the mid 50's but warmer near the mouth of the rivers.

Carp River: A few coho were taken on small spoons, spinners or crawlers.
Chocolay River: Catch rates were slow with only a few coho and brown trout taken on crawlers or spinners.
Keweenaw Bay: Windy conditions made fishing difficult in all parts of the bay. The bite was slow with very few coho and lake trout taken.
AuTrain: Had few anglers because of windy conditions. Surface water temperatures were in the mid 50's.

Perfect for Fighting High Cholesterol & Glucose Levels
Posted by Reviewer2864112 on Sep 24, 2012
I always look for products to help reduce cholesterol. This one is a good source of greens. The maca chocolate is the best & healthiest on the planet, too. I also look at the sugar content since doctors recommend foods with less than 10 gms. of sugar. Not only is the sugar low, it's from Stevia. It's very gritty so buying the individual packets before investing in a whole canister is a good idea. I mix it with my tea & some ice. It's good with meals & as a replacement. It's now one of those products like acacia fiber, quinoa, & stevia that I always want in my pantry.

Great protein powder
Posted by DawnMellowship on May 16, 2012
Love the taste of this and the high quality ingredients. I am a fan of Amazing Meal generally although they can be a bit pricey. I think it's worth it for a superior protein powder or meal replacement.
Great pick me up!
Posted by abbyca on Apr 04, 2012
I love this product. I always feel like I got a nice spurt of energy after drinking it plus I like the fact that it's not high in sugar.

What has been the response to the collection so far?
When we launched on Net-A-Porter [in December], we sold out of all sizes in just a few days. It was sort of validation of what women want: luxury, to feel beautiful, but also want to be comfortable. These are clothes that fit and are of really high quality.
Tell me about your current collection.
The line is really about old Hollywood and glamour. I look at Tory Burch and how she embodies the Park Avenue woman and Ralph Lauren is really Americana. I really want to build Haney as this Hollywood glamorous line where women can be comfortable but feel really glamorous. I got my master's degree in film, so I really looked to film and the history of film, all of these amazing costume designers, for inspiration.
What's your take on the concept of customizable ready-to-wear?
It's like an insiders look into a celebrities style team. They all have stylists, hair and makeup people. ... we are creating that with the customization, where you can create your own unique look.
Whom in fashion, past or present, do you admire?
I really admire Tom Ford, especially his work when he was with Yves Saint Laurent and Gucci in the late '90s. To me, that was the epitome of fashion. … I have so many of his pieces in my own private collection. And I look a lot at Halston in the '70s, what was happening then for inspiration. And I'm really inspired by [James] Galanos.
What's in store for the new collection?
I tend to like shiny, sparkly things, so you'll see a lot of sequins and embellishments. And there will be a lot of wearable dresses, which is to say it's not just something to wear to a party but something you can wear during the day and take out to a party at night.
The jumpsuit (pictured above right) in my first collection has been a huge hit, so I will have another jumpsuit in the second. … I love jumpsuits; it's something that can easily be worn from day to night.
My clientele is the woman who goes out—or the girl that wants something special but doesn't want to go home and change three times. So I am focusing on that.

Me too... I lost alot of sleep during high school reading Stephen King. However, I do think he is an amazing writer even if what he writes is scarier than hell.

Expiration Date:?Jul 2018Expiration Date
The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.
Shipping Weight:?0.51 lbsShipping WeightThe Shipping Weight includes the product, protective packaging material and the actual shipping box. In addition, the Shipping Weight may be adjusted for the Dimensional Weight (e.g. length, width & height) of a package. It is important to note that certain types of products (e.g. glass containers, liquids, fragile, refrigerated or ice packed) will often require protective packaging material. As such, these products will reflect a higher Shipping Weight compared to the unprotected product.

I have these little candies at work to replace chocolate sometimes. When you start eating these, your mouth just waters with fruit juice and you forget all about chocolate. Seriously good (I couldn't tell they taste like pomegranate though)

Well, it's Thursday, and today IBM is having a major launch for storage. We have lots of exciting announcements today, so here is the major highlights:
- IBM Storwize V7000 midrange disk system
Fellow blogger Rolf Potts just completed his [No Baggage Challenge], travelling around the world, twelve countries in six weeks with no luggage. I first learned of this trip from fellow published author and blogger Tim Ferriss in his post [How to Travel 12 Countries with No Baggage Whatsoever]. This trip was sponsored by a travel agency [BootsnAll.com] and travel clothing manufacturer [ScotteVest].
From New York, Rolf went to London, Paris, Madrid, Morocco, Cairo, South Africa, Bangkok Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, New Zealand, Australia, and then back to United States. I was hoping to run into him while I was in Australia and New Zealand last month, but our schedules did not line up.
Travelingwithout baggage is more than just a convenience, it is a metaphor for the philosophy that we should keep only what we need, and leave behind what we don't. This was the approach taken by IBM in the design of the IBM Storwize V7000 midrange disk system.
The drives are all connected via 6 Gbps SAS, and come in a variety of speeds and sizes: 300GB Solid-State Drive (SSD); 300GB/450GB/600GB high-speed 10K RPM; and 2TB low-speed 7200 RPM drives. The 12-bay enclosures can be intermixed with 24-bay enclosures on the same system, and within an enclosure different speeds and sizes can be intermixed. A half-rack system (20U) could hold as much as 480TB of raw disk capacity.
This new system, freshly designed entirely within IBM, competes directly against systems that carry a lot of baggage, including the HDS AMS, HP EVA, an EMC CLARiiON CX4 systems. Instead, we decided to keep the what we wanted from our other successful IBM products.
- Inspired by our successful XIV storage system, IBM has developed a web-based GUI that focuses on ease-of-use. This GUI uses the latest HTML5 and dojo widgets to provide an incredible user experience.
- Borrowed from our IBM DS8000 high-end disk systems, state-of-the-art device adapters provide 6 Gbps SAS connectivity with a variety of RAID levels: 0, 1, 5, 6, and 10.
- From our SAN Volume Controller, the embedded [ SVC 6.1 firmware] provides all of the features and functions normally associated with enterprise-class systems, including Easy Tier sub-LUN automated tiering between Solid-State Drives and Spinning disk, thin provisioning, external disk virtualization, point-in-time FlashCopy, disk mirroring, built-in migration capability, and long-distance synchronous and asynchronous replication.
To learn more on this, read the [announcement letter], [landing page], [product page], [services page], as well as the blog posts from fellow master inventor and blogger Barry Whyte (IBM) at his [Storage Virtualization] blog.
- My New Book is Now Available!
Finally, the various "internal NDA" that kept me from publishing this sooner have expired, so now I have the long-awaited [Inside System Storage: Volume II], documenting IBM's transformation in its storage strategy, including behind-the-scenes commentary about IBM's acquisitions of XIV and Diligent. Available initially in paperback form. I am still working on the hard cover and eBook editions.
For those who have not yet read my first book, Inside System Storage: Volume I, it is still available from my publisher Lulu, in [hard cover], [paperback] and [eBook] editions.
- IBM System Storage DS8800
A lesson IBM learned long ago was not to make radical changes to high-end disk systems, as clients who run mission-critical applications are more concerned about reliability, availability and serviceability than they are performance or functionality. Shipping any product before it was ready meant painfully having to fix the problems in the field instead.
(EMC apparently is learning this same lesson now with their VMAX disk system. Their Engenuity code from Symmetrix DMX4 was ported over to new CLARiiON-based hardware. With several hundred boxes in the field, they have already racked up over 150 severity 1 problems, roughly half of these resulted in data loss or unavailability issues. For the sake of our mutual clients that have both IBM servers and EMC disk, I hope they get their act together soon.)
To avoid this, IBM made incremental changes to the successful design and architecture of its predecessors. The new DS8800 shares 85 percent of the stable microcode from the DS8700 system. Functions like Metro Mirror, Global Mirror, and Metro/Global Mirror, are compatible with all of the previous models of the DS8000 series, as well as previous models of the IBM Enterprise Storage Server (ESS) line.
My colleague Curtis Neal would call the rest of this a "BFD" announcement, which of course stands for "Bigger, Faster and Denser". The new DS8800 scales-up to more drives than its DS8700 predecessor, and can scale-out from a single-frame 2-way system to a multi-frame 4-way system. IBM has upgraded to faster 5GHz POWER6+ processors, with dual-core 8 Gbps FC and FICON host adapters, 8 Gbps device adapters, and 6 Gbps SAS connectivity to smaller form factor (SFF) 2.5-inch SAS drives. IBM Easy Tier will provide sub-LUN automated tiering between Solid-State Drives and spinning disk. The denser packaging with SFF drives means that we can pack over 1000 drives in only three frames, compared to five frames required for the DS8700.
To learn more, read the [landing page] or the announcement letters for the machine types [2421], [2422], [2423], [2424].
- IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller v6.1
The [IBM System Storage SAN Volume Controller] software release v6.1 brings Easy Tier sub-LUN automated tiering to the rest of the world. IBM Easy Tier moves the hottest, most active extents up to Solid-State Drives (SSD) and moves the coldest, least active down to spinning disk. This works whether the SSD is inside the SVC 2145-CF8 nodes, or in the managed disk pool.
Tired of waiting for EMC to finally deliver FAST v2 for your VMAX? It has been 18 months since they first announced that someday they would have sub-LUN automatic tiering. What is taking them so long? Why not virtualize your VMAX with SVC, and you can have it sooner!
SVC 6.1 also upgrades to a sexy new web-based GUI, which like the one for the IBM Storwize V7000, is based on the latest HTML5 and dojo widget standards. Inspired by the popular GUI from the IBM XIV Storage System, this GUI has greatly improved ease-of-use.
To learn more, read the [announcement letter] and [SVC product page].
These are just a subset of today's announcements. To see the rest, read [What's New].

District 88 Board gets budget update
NEW ULM – The District 88 Board of Education on Thursday revised the current year budget, in part to more accurately reflect factors such as the student count and the resulting amount of state aid, increased clarity about federal funding, and just completed contract settlements with employees.
General (operating) fund
Revenue was revised up $20,856 from the previously adopted budget, from $19,595,651 to $19,616,507. Expenditures were also revised up, by $485,489, from $20,024,819 to $20,510,308. These changes result in a budget with a deficit of $893,801.
Some key considerations that played into the changes:
The student count was somewhat lower than originally projected, and state aid went down an overall 1.16 percent. That said, state aid for special education went up from projections, by 9.41 percent. The budget adjustment also factors in a more accurate number for a new state revenue category, literacy aid.
Federal revenue, not a big percent of the budget, was 10.87 percent more than expected (a difference of $44,907). The federal government funds programs based on the percent of low-income students.
A sizable amount of gifts to the school system, $41,507, boosted the budget.
Because of settling employee contracts, expenditures for salaries and wages increased by 3.5 percent compared to the previously budgeted amount (from $9,932,640 to $10,283,775). Salaries and wages decreased by almost 2 percent from last year, however, as a results of retirements and position cuts, noted Business Manager Myrna Meunier.
Capital expenditures were revised up by $211,969, or 38.31 percent from previously budgeted, to reflect new projects such purchasing iPads (from donations) and various other projects.
Food Service fund
Revenue in the Food Service fund was revised down from $772,210 to $738,225.
One major factor was a decrease in lunch sales at the high school, by $49,284. Officials attributed this outcome to the introduction of open lunch.
This trend, however, was in part offset by better than expected sales in breakfast and a snack cart at Jefferson Elementary School.
Expenditures in this fund were revised up from $767,350 to $786,689, in part because of the need to purchase equipment for the Jefferson kitchen.
Para contract
The board approved a new two-year contract with paraprofessionals, retroactively covering the last, and also the current, school year. The contract is a result of a process that included negotiations and mediation.
The contract is similar to those signed with other employee groups, said Board Chair Duane Winter.
It involves a wage freeze for the first year (last school year) but includes step raises.
The district contribution to health insurance premiums for year one of the contract was similar to that for other groups and covered the premium increase.
For the current year, paraprofessionals received a 1 percent raise and a longevity increase of 5 cents per hour.
The monthly district contribution to health insurance premiums increased by $40.
Some contract language was cleaned up, and a provision was changed to add two more days of family medical leave.
Unlike talks with other groups, which resulted in two additional years of contracts, talks with paraprofessionals need to resume soon, to negotiate contracts for the next biennium, officials said.
As part of its agenda, the board also rescheduled some of its forthcoming meetings and heard presentations from Superintendent Harold Remme about the possibility of offering an early retirement incentive and on long-range facility planning.

London could 'lose global hub status' in five years
Almost 60% of respondents to a survey of senior financial services chiefs believe that London will no longer be the leading global financial services centre in five years' time.
While 65% of those polled in a global regulatory outlook study, conducted by consultant Kinetic Partners, currently regard London as the world's pre-eminent place in which to do business in the financial sector, only 41% believe it will remain so at the end of 2017.
Andrew Shrimpton, a member at Kinetic Partners and former head of alternatives supervision at the Financial Services Authority, said commercial opportunity was the major driver of location decisions but that regulation is a key consideration.
He said: "London is losing out because capital has to be ring-fenced nationally now. The fading out of the idea of a global firm with the ability to move capital freely between entities means subsidiaries will be established where the biggest savings markets are."
He added that the UK's adherence to European legislation on remuneration could also hit the City.
Chris Cummings, chief executive of TheCityUK, an independent body promoting the UK financial services industry, said: "There's a narrative emerging about Europe being over-regulated and over-taxed."
The Kinetic poll was conducted across 88 of Kinetic Partners' clients and contacts.
Just under half were from asset managers or hedge funds, with the remainder split between brokers, private equity houses and investment banks.

Couture garments could be considered wearable works of art, and many fashionable masterpieces have been created stateside. "IMPACT: 50 Years of the Council of Fashion Designers of America," shown at the Boca Raton Museum of Art from January 29 to April 21, is a collection of clothing and accessories from 600 influential American designers of the last half-century, including Michael Kors, Diane von Furstenberg, Norma Kamali and Vera Wang. This interactive exhibit is a history lesson in disguise, allowing viewers to explore the timeline of American fashion through touchscreen displays. A supplementary exhibit titled, "Draw and Shoot: Fashion Illustrations and Photographs from the Collection," which captures fashionable moments on camera or paper, complements "IMPACT" like a pearl necklace to a Chanel suit.
