Politically Correct Santa
Dear Editor,
For more years than I care to re - member, the appearance of Jolly Old St. Nick at the end of the Macy's Pa - rade, smiling broadly and waving to the children and then, of course, saying those magic words "Merry Christ - mas," signified the official start of the Christmas holiday season.
As the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade drew to a close last Thursday thousands of people gathered at Herald Square suddenly broke out into cheers of happiness as Santa Claus made his appearance at 34th Street.
Suddenly there he was, in his brand new sleigh packed with bags of presents for good little boys and girls atop his workshop, standing and waving to the adoring crowd of children and adults.
As Santa's float pulled in front of Macy's a hush came over the crowd and Santa turned to the crowd of spectators and cameras, placed his finger aside his nose and then spread his arms wide shouting those magic words….Happy Thanksgiving? What was that all about? What happened to "Merry Christmas"?
Have the "P.C." police finally gotten their hooks into Macy's so that they, along with many others, are now afraid to mention the verboten word,

therapy treat angina cognitive - categorieskaufen cheap ranolazine website
I've been taking Ranolazine for three months now to treat my chronic angina. I can't even say for sure how and when I developed this condition, just one day I realized that breathing was no longer that easy and comfortable for me as it used to be before. And even after that I thought it was kind of infection or something else. However soon there occurred new symptoms like severe chest pain and dry cough. Later I have undergone several screenings and tests and the doctor told me that it was a coronary artery disease, namely chronic angina. At that time these words meant little for me, but the doctor explained that the reason was in the reduced blood flow to the heart. Because of this malfunction I experience pain and discomfort especially when breathing cold or extremely humid air. So within latest five years I have tried out many medications aimed to simplify the life of those with chronic angina like me. But it is only Ranolazine that provides real relief and causes no side effects. All the other medication I have tried out before were either ineffective or created real problems for me for example high blood pressure, dizziness or numbness in my feet. That is unacceptable for me as I drive my car every day and have to stay concentrated. Ranolazine is great for me, it relieves the pain and makes my life much more pleasant and easy.

In 2011, Sony's PlayStation Network was hacked and compromised 77 million accounts exposing customer names, addresses, dates of birth, passwords as well as payment details.
The breach wasn't quickly identified and it took longer for Sony to inform customers of the breach because it wasn't until it noticed that payment details were compromised that the company informed its customers.
Sony offered financial compensation to those who suffered monetary loss due to the breach while others just waited for the outage to be over and get back to gaming.
A year later, it was discovered that aside from customers' information being hacked, about 50,000 music files were also compromised. Most of the music files said to have been from the late King of Pop Michael Jackson.
The hack happened almost two years ago, it seems everyone has moved on, forgotten what happened, thinking that Sony already learned its lesson and fortified its security, but not everyone has locked the incident in the past.
"The wheels of civil justice turn slowly," says Kyt Dotson, HackANGLE editor. "The case of Sony getting hacked was a hot item at the time–especially for those 77 million users–and it's lead to a lot of questions about industry standards for keeping users safe. We continue to see mega-sized breaches year-in and year-out and regulation centering on increased cybersecurity may be as necessary as customers learning to better protect themselves."
Fined for weak security
The Information Commissioner's Office fined Sony £250,000 for the hack stating that it was in "serious breach of the Data Protection Act."
"If you are responsible for so many payment card details and log-in details then keeping that personal data secure has to be your priority. In this case that just didn't happen," said David Smith, deputy commissioner and director of data protection. "When the database was targeted – albeit in a determined criminal attack – the security measures in place were simply not good enough."
As for the penalty imposed on Sony, Smith stated that it was just, considering the fact that the company put people's identities at risk for theft.
"The penalty we've issued today is clearly substantial, but we make no apologies for that. The case is one of the most serious ever reported to us. It directly affected a huge number of consumers, and at the very least put them at risk of identity theft," added Smith.
Although Smith pointed out that because of the breach, 77 percent of consumers are now more cautious about giving out their personal details on websites.

I'll definitely be trying the color-blocking trend again--just perhaps with different pieces. How about you?

Guys are so funny, my bf gives me the same looks. I love your color blocking outfit.
great look! love the colors!
HaHa! Looks great on you! I definitely want to try the trend, but the thing is I dont really have that many bright pieces... need to find a solution to that! :D
I really like it, I think you've got the colours spot on.
The doll on fashion
I especially love those pants...what a great color!ReplyDelete
Love this color combination. It's so fun!ReplyDelete
Haha, even if it is jester-ish it looks AMAZING! :D
This is one of my favorite outfits of yours...something about the combination of magenta and blue together, you look gorgeous!ReplyDelete
Love those shoes! This to me is a pretty natural color pairing in my mind. Nothing crazy about it at all.ReplyDelete
Love this look on you those pants are great as is the color of your shirt! I've wanted to try color blocking but I'm sort of afraid of it at the same time, I'm not sure how great it would look on me. But it does look awesome on you!
I'm having a $100 dollar shopbop giftcard giveaway on my blog! Come check it out :)
I don't think this looks "jesterish" at all - I love the color combo and think it really works perfectly!
xoxo ~ Courtney
I really love color blocking too--especially with nude shoes (like you accessorized with!) So pretty!ReplyDelete
I love those pants...and I LOVE even more that you know they are good bc your man looks at you funny!!! Mine does the same when i thrown something outta the box on! LOVES!!!!
I am fully onboard with this trend but have yet to rock it bc i don't have the right pieces...one day!
i want your clothes. now. please.ReplyDelete
I'm also loving the color-blocking trend and excited to try it! I love this look and pants. They're man-repeller FAB! :)ReplyDelete
I love this look :) I wasn't really seeing a jester glimpse in it :) For me this colour blocking trend is a bit too much, I like to stay neutral on my legs or torso. xReplyDelete
Love, love, love all of it!!! :o)
I love your pants and you pull them off so well, but I'm wondering how you do it because I've tried on so many pairs and they all look terrible from the rear view! Is there some secret to keep from having mom butt or do you just have to embrace it?ReplyDelete
The color blocking trend is one of my favorites. I love the bright colors you used and the huge clutch. Such a pretty color top on you, Anna! I'm back from Detroit and the city was scary. Thankfully we stayed in Birmingham, which is actually really nice! Hope you're having a good week.ReplyDelete
@Anon - Ha, i love it! Sadly, these definitely give me "mom butt" and I think you just need to embrace it. That's probably why my fiance doesn't love them..but I do :)ReplyDelete
Fun colors, girls! Work it!ReplyDelete
bonita composiçaõ!ReplyDelete
I'm loving this and you do NOT look like a Jester! Those pants are perfect. I kinda wanna go to H & M now and look for a pair!
Come enter my luv by erin wasson + other goodies giveaway!
Anna, you look so stunning in absolutely EVERYTHING. I love these colors together and the shapes are phenomenal on you.
xo Josie
There are some scary jester pictures on google! But you look amazing... love the pants.
You executed this look to perfection! Loving those pants...whenever the husband gives me that look I KNOW that the outfit is a winner! haha. xoReplyDelete
You chose awesome colors....I love this trend!!!ReplyDelete
I see no jester here, just one stylish lady! My god, your legs go on for days in these pants - love them! And, I can't wait to get on the color-blocking trend though it's going to have to wait until I return to the States and update (finally!) my wardrobe a bit. Can't wait to see your next take on the trend!ReplyDelete
I don't know about color blocking, but I do love those pants. Here's the thing though Anna...I think I might need your legs to go with?ReplyDelete
i love the shape of that shirt, it gives such a nice silhouette!ReplyDelete
Those pants are so flattering on you! I would wear them constantly if I were you!
xoxo Lauren
Jester? Really? You crazy. This is elegant and gorgeous. The rich fuchsia and sapphire are amazing together. Love this look. I'm for true fit'n tah hook this look up in my own wardrobe.
Thanks for inspiring me yet again.
The pants has amazing colour and look so good with the blouse!ReplyDelete
I would not have thought jester had you not said it, think it is still adorable. LOVE the pants!!ReplyDelete
I love the rich color of the top! It's absolutely beautiful. It's much more street chic than jester!
I don't think you look jester-y at all!! I think you look adorable. I've been wanting to jump on board with color blocking, but I don't really have any solid bottoms in interesting colors. Everything is either printed or bland. I'm definitely on the lookout for some red pants though - if I manage to find them, you better believe there's going to be color blocking!!ReplyDelete
sometimes I know I've done a fashion "hit" if the bf doesn't understand it ;)ReplyDelete
The Purse is from Urban Expressions. One of there Best Sellers!ReplyDelete
@anon - thanks for letting me know! my friend in ATL bought it for me an didn't know the brand :)ReplyDelete
Love the pants, Anna! You look great.ReplyDelete
Such a gorgeous outfit! I love the color and you look gorgeous in pink!ReplyDelete
This comment has been removed by the author.ReplyDelete
you are working those proportions and I love that you embrace color! This outfit is A+ :)ReplyDelete
I absolutely adore your style. Everything you wear, I love. Great colors.
xx Allie
And what a marvelous job you did! These colors are right up my alley and I love that clutch!ReplyDelete
I love the look of highwaisted jeans, but i'm not sure my short frame could rock it like that. perhaps i'll give it a try anyway. love the clutch.
best, tamra
hi anna!
i am your newest follower and enjoy your blog very much.
love this outfit, looks great on you, hopefully i can pull it off as you have.
thanks for sharing such fabulous outfit ideas.
be well,
liz ^-^
I am 100% convinced that men do not, and will not understand the high-waisted thing. I think I have my husband trained one day, and the next he is looking confusedly at my bum. There should be nothing confusing about my bum! But I don't care because I think high-waisted pants look awesome.ReplyDelete
pink and blue! i love this colors together!
oh i love that color combo! It's totally chic and very springy! You've inspired me to be a bit more daring in my outfits:)ReplyDelete
I have the same pants, and my husband said the same thing verbatim! LOL! I always know my cool meter is on high when he has no idea what I'm wearing!ReplyDelete
You did a really great color blocking job!!
xx Olga
La Petite Olga
Love your pants, stunning outfit! :)
what a wonderful color combo!ReplyDelete
OMG LOVE!! This outfit is amazing. I love the colors and the pants. Very chic!
you are gorgeous! love your blog and how you put outfits together :) Check out my blog!
Where can you buy Andre J?? I loove the shorts, and this bright top! When I google I get the man Andre J - not the cute clothes. Suggestions?
Thanks Jane!
You look fab in colorblocking!ReplyDelete
We are sort of outfit twins - I posted something that's very close in color scheme: http://thefashionableesq.blogspot.com/2011/05/fendi-forever-boston-bag-cheeca-lodge.html

Today's Foto Friday feature is incredibly special…
It marks the 6th year of our wedding! So in honor of that momentous day I felt it appropriate to do a throwback.
It's not from the actual wedding but pretty darn close so, please forgive me!
To my hubby,
Life has changed so much since that innocent meeting 7 years ago but it has been for the better.
Thank you for all the great adventures & memories.
I'm sorry that you're stuck but I promise that no matter how much gray hair you have or weight you gain…
I will always love you.
Happy Anniversary!

Hello Margaret,
Welcome to aroid-L!
Congrats on the blooming, I so hope the tiny thing eventually opens and
produces its perfume to be appreciated by some!
A task for someone like your goodself or ANYONE out there in
aroid-land----research and document ALL the bloomings of this wonderful
Amorphophallus species in say the last 15 or so years, particulalrly plants
originating from seed collected in the wild by Jim Symon and Wilbert
Hetterschied! The information, or at least MOST of it would be available on the
archives of aroid-l, and from memory (not too good these days!!) would begin
with the FIRST blooming at the home of the then-grower at MOBOT, I disremember
her name at this moment (shame on me!), but this plant too was TINY, a real
dwarf giant, and there was much discussion back then on if genitics played a
role in such a small plant blooming!
Please give us updates on your plants progress.
Good Luck and good growing!

> We are anticipating
the inflorescence to open this week. We have had some dark weather the last

about half of the spadix. So the flowers are visible at all times. It is very

plant is from a 1993 seed lot that was planted at Gustavus Adolphus College in

More than 300,000 families in London and the South East will lose child benefit within weeks in an economic blow to the region.
The tax change, which will hit middle-class and wealthy households, is expected to drain at least £600 million out of the economy in this part of Britain in 2013/14. New figures reveal how many households in each constituency have been sent a letter warning them that their child benefit is to be cut next month.
London commuter constituencies will be the hardest hit. More households will be affected in just four of them — Richmond Park (5,720), Twickenham (4,860), Esher and Walton (4,950), and Wimbledon (3,980) — than in the whole of the North East (18,090).
In the capital as a whole, nearly as many families (132,730) will lose child benefit than in the whole of Scotland (51,410), Wales (20,630), the East Midlands (43,010) and the North East (18,090). Households with at least one earner on more than £60,000 will have all their child benefit axed — worth £1,750 for two children, and nearly £2,450 for three. Families with at least one parent on more than £50,000 but not above the £60,000 threshold, will see their child benefit tapered away.
"There is going to be a lot of pain ... and much of that pain will be felt by Londoners who are by no stretch of the imagination wealthy," said Cities of London and Westminster MP Mark Field.

The AAEP Announces Unwanted Horse Summit Participants
Bringing together the equine industry's major organizations for the first time to address the issue of unwanted horses, the American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP) will host a one-day Unwanted Horse Summit onTuesday, April 19 during the American Horse Council's annual meeting in Washington, D.C.
"This unprecedented level of cooperation demonstrates the sense of urgency and concern the industry has for the plight of the unwanted horse," said Scott Palmer, VMD, 2005 president of the AAEP. "Next month's Summit is designed to be the catalyst for identifying and implementing long-term, practical solutions that elevate the quality of life for these horses."
A broad spectrum of leading industry organizations representing breed groups, sport and discipline organizations, rescue and retirement facilities, veterinary associations, and welfare groups has been confirmed to take part in the April 19 Summit. In addition to the AAEP, participating organizations include:
- American Horse Protection Association
- American Paint Horse Association
- American Quarter Horse Association
- American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals
- American Veterinary Medical Association
- Appaloosa Horse Club
- Bureau of Land Management
- Carriage Operators of North America
- Day's End Farm Horse Rescue
- Hooved Animal Humane Society
- Humane Society of the United States
- National H.B.P.A.

- Standardbred Retirement Foundation
- State Horse Council Advisory Committee
- The Jockey Club
- Thoroughbred Charities of America
- Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation
- United States Department of Agriculture
- United States Equestrian Federation, Inc.
- United States Trotting Association
The Summit, which will be a professionally facilitated meeting, will focus on issues such as responsible horse ownership and breeding, long-term care options and affordable and accessible means of humane euthanasia. While participation in the Summit is open only to invited organizations, an educational session on the morning of April 19 will provide an overview of issues affecting the unwanted horse population. This session is open to anyone attending the American Horse Council's annual meeting. A report regarding the Summit's discussion and next steps will be available to the public following the event.

Chemical characteristics of dissolved organic matter in an oligotrophic subtropical wetland/estuarine ecosystem
Limnol. Oceanogr., 50(1), 2005, 23-35 | DOI: 10.4319/lo.2005.50.1.0023
ABSTRACT: Fluorescence properties of whole water samples and molecular characteristics of ultrafiltrated dissolved organic matter (UDOM > 1,000 D) such as lignin phenol and neutral sugar compositions and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra were determined along a freshwater to marine gradient in Everglades National Park. Furthermore, UDOM samples were categorized by hierarchical cluster analysis based on their pyrolysis gas chromatography/mass spectrometry products. Fluorescence properties suggest that autochthonous DOM leached/exuded from biomass is quantitatively important in this system. 13C NMR spectra showed that UDOM from the oligotrophic Taylor Slough (TS) and Florida Bay (FB) ecosystems has low aromatic C (13% ± 3% for TS; 2% ± 2% for FB) and very high O-alkyl C (54% ± 4% for TS; 75% ± 4% for FB) concentrations. High O-alkyl C concentrations in FB suggest seagrass/phytoplankton communities as dominant sources of UDOM. The amount of neutral sugars was not appreciably different between the TS and FB sites (115 ± 12 mg C g C-1 UDOM) but their concentrations suggest a low level of diagenesis and high production rates of this material in this oligotrophic environment. Total yield of lignin phenols (vanillyl + syringyl phenols) in TS was low (0.20-0.39 mg 100 mg C-1 UDOM) compared with other riverine environments and even lower in FB (0.04-0.07 mg 100 mg C-1 UDOM) and could be a result of photodegradation and/or dilution by other utochthonous DOM. The high O-alkyl and low aromatic nature of this UDOM suggests significant biogenic inputs (as compared with soils) and limited bioavailability in this ecosystem.

While at the ever-popular "park with a pole" (to slide down and be a firefighter, of course), I asked him, "K-Man, what are your favorite things to do?" He looked at me with a look that was mostly, "I'm not even three. What the hell did you just ask me?" Instead, he more diplomatically just said, "What?" It was as if opposing counsel had objected in open court and I needed to search for a way to rephrase the question. (If, you know, I were a lawyer or had ever been involved in a trial. I learned, "I'll rephrase, your Honor," from the movies and the occasional "Law & Order.")
So, I tried again. "K-Man, what do you like to do the most?" This seemed to make more sense to him. "Oh, I like Charlie." Yes, I understand that Charlie is your best friend, but that's not exactly what I'm asking, I explained. Then it clicked: "I like fire trucks!" He was on a roll, "I like music!" Anything else, I asked? And he launched into a series of fire truck and music related things: sliding down poles, playing guitar, singing, etc. No real surprises, I guess.
I asked him if he wanted to sing about fire trucks. He seemed pretty enthused about this and I launched into a nonsensical song about fire trucks. (To the tune of "The Brady Bunch" theme song – "Here's the story of a boy named K-Man, who wanted very much to be a firefighter" and so on.) He laughed at me, which was likely because the words were silly and also his ears were probably hurting, and his laughter got me to stop.
I'm really not that "my kid is a genius" parent. But, K-Man's passions for music and firefighters truly seem real. I watch his little friends and talk to the other parents, and those kids seem to be into one TV show or another, or have a jones for any kind of truck (not so much with just fire trucks). Or they kind of jump from one thing to another. (K-Man's buddy Charlie had the firefighter fetish for a while, but it was abandoned for tractors, I think.) And, others, of course, seem to have a knack for sports (but they also seem to have the dads who are already pushing).
I find myself wondering if K-Man's focus and passion for all things music and firefighters are signs of his focus and passion, or truly for these things. Will he always show focus and passion for his favorite things? Or will these two "hobbies" stick? Will he turn out to be one of those (sometimes I think lucky) people who are just born knowing what they want to do? Or is he one of those (sometimes I think equally lucky) people who find new and exciting passions and dreams to keep them motivated and to keep life interesting? (Or is he just three and this is what three-year olds do?)
I went to a concert a week or so ago (Stone Temple Pilots – good time) and couldn't help but wonder if K-Man would someday be up on that stage (though unlike the STP lead singer, K-Man won't have been in and out of rehab 40+ times). As Scott Weiland owned the crowd and wailed in that signature voice, I could see K-Man up there, playing his guitar, singing his songs and (like STP) wowing the crowd with a light show that included lots of video of fire. I imagined the T-shirts for the "K-Man and the Firefighters World Tour."
Whatever he decides to do is cool by me. If he wants to fight fires, I hope he becomes one of the best and loves it. If he wants to sing, I hope he stays out of the tabloids (while making his music, of course). It's just so interesting to me to watch him develop his passion(s), and it's an amazing reminder that no matter where we are in our lives – it's never too late to find and follow our own.

Omak, Wash., November 20, 2012- Omak Native Ministries group was very excited to be given a booth space in the Indian encampment at the Omak Stampede which was Thursday August 9th through Sunday August 12th. Our booth was called the Native New Day Children's Booth. Our theme was Creation. For each day of creation they would look in a decorated box and guess what God had created. For example, on the six day they looked in a mirror after looking at the animals in the box.
We gave out many children's materials such as children's Bibles, Little Friends Sabbath School papers, Insight magazines, Bible story books, book marks with scripture, toys with Jesus sayings, and animals, etc. And health magazines for the adults.
We did a Native craft decorating paper tipis with stickers and feathers for the top sticks which they could take with them. They painted a larger cloth tipi little ones could crawl into located behind the booth. We had a special feature each day, telling Bible stories, and having puppet shows. There was something for all ages.
Since most of the booths and activities at the Stampede are geared for adults the children's booth was a huge success. Even the children competing in the dance contests came repeatedly to go through the booth. The children brought their parents and grandparents. Not only did the children have a wonderful time, it was such a fun outreach for the ministry workers as well. We have been invited to have the children's booth at two other camp meetings this next summer. God certainly is blessing in a big way.

The following is an excerpt from the Facebook Marketing Bible, the comprehensive guide to marketing your company, app, or brand using Facebook. The full version of this article, available through a Facebook Marketing Bible subscription, includes strategies for using every new and modified feature from the February 2011 Page redesign. It teaches marketers how take advantage of the Photostrip, mutual interests panel, and "Everyone" relevant posts wall filter. It also features strategies for using iframe Page tab applications, the new wall moderation tools, and the ability to post and comment around Facebook as your Page.
In February 2011, Facebook launched a major redesign and expansion of functionality of its Pages for businesses, brands, media, and public figures. The Page layout matches the December user profile redesign, and as of March 1st, 2011, all Pages use it.
Here we'll walk through each of the changes, and outline strategies for how you can use the new features to convince new visitors to Like your Page, drive traffic to affiliated Pages, highlight or silence user opinions, moderate your Page's wall to give a good impression of your brand and promote high quality conversation, draw traffic from other Pages by posting and commenting as your Page, and engage fans and visitors with iframe Page tab applications.
"Everyone" Relevant Posts Wall Tab, and Wall Moderation
You can select between an "Everyone" and a Page posts only default tab for your Page's wall in the Edit Page admin interface. All users who visit the Page's wall will first see this default view of the wall, but can switch to the alternative view using a link at top right of the wall.
"Everyone" shows a mix of posts by users and the Page. Facebook surfaces the posts it thinks will be the most relevant to the viewer. Recent posts by friends, posts by other users in same language or country, and posts that have received a lot of Likes and comments will bubble to the top instead of appearing in reverse chronological order. Your Page's own posts will appear in reverse chronological order intermixed with the user content. The Page posts only filter, which is displayed as the name of your Page, won't display any user posts and will show your Page's posts in reverse chronological order.
If you want total determination of the content that visitors first see when they visit your Page's wall, or are focused on driving traffic to outbound links you post, select the Page posts only tab as the default. Since visitors won't be distracted by posts by other users, they'll be more likely to read your Pages updates and click your links. Users will still be able to click the other tab to see posts by fans. If you want to completely silence fans, such as during a public relations crisis, you can deselect the Posting Ability options to prevent users from posting updates and links, photos, or videos to you wall. Users expect to have this ability, though, and may be angered if they're denied the option.
Page that want to allow their fan community to have a prominent voice on their Page should use the Everyone tab as their default. This will allow users to express how they feel about your brand and ask questions. When visitors see organic, positive posts from other users, it raises the credibility of your brand and encourages visitors to Like your Page. If you select this option, you'll need to have a community manager, customer service representative, or other employee monitor your wall and politely respond to questions. They can also Like user posts to thank fans for their support.
If brands want to control but not silence the voices of fans in the Everyone tab, whether it's set as the default tab or not, they can use the moderation options in the Manage Permission tab of the Edit Page admin interface. The Profanity Blocklist can be set to "None", "Medium", or "Strong" to filter posts containing curse words into the Hidden Posts tab that only admins can see. Most Pages should set the filter to at least "medium". However, brands that want to align with a rowdy, informal, 16-24 year old male demographic such as men's magazines, motorcycle makers, extreme sports clothing lines, tattoo parlors and other edgy brands, as well as brands who want to make sure not to censor anyone should leave the Profanity Blocklist set to "None".
The Moderation Blocklist allows admins to automatically send user posts with the selected keywords to the Hidden Posts tab. To control the sentiment of users so only positive posts are visible, block words such as such as "hate, sucks, bad, boring, stupid, useless, poor" and their synonyms. To prevent users from recommending your competitors on your wall, block words such as "competitor, worse" and the names of any of your competitors.
Admins can click the "Admin View" link beneath the wall tab in the navigation menu to reveal the Hidden Posts tab. They can then review any posts that Facebook automatically removed, or that were removed according to the Page's moderation preferences. If an admin wants to return a user post to the Everyone tab, they can click the 'x' button beside it and select "Unhide post". A good moderation strategy is to set your Profanity Blocklist to "Strong" and add a wide range of words to your Moderation Blocklist, but then diligently unhide posts that are actually acceptable.
To moderate posts that haven't been moved to the Hidden Posts tab, click the Most Recent tab in the Admin View. This will show a reverse chronological view of all user posts, making it easy to scan through and hide any objectionable posts. Since the Everyone tab in the user view isn't reverse chronological, moderating from that list will cause you to miss some less relevant posts and read the same relevant posts on every pass.
Access strategies for the rest of the new features in the Page redesign, and learn more marketing best practices at the Facebook Marketing Bible, Inside Network's complete guide to marketing and advertising on Facebook.

TDC selects ad agency, approves media opportunity
By DOTTY NIST
Impressed by the Zehnder advertising agency's knowledge of the local area and staff qualifications, among other factors, South Walton Tourist Development Council (TDC) members have voted in favor of proceeding with negotiations to make Zehnder their new advertising consultant.
The decision, which will result in a recommendation to the Walton County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) to proceed with the negotiations, took place at a TDC special meeting on Aug. 8 at the Bayou Arts Center.
Fifteen companies had responded to the TDC's request for proposals (RFP) for an advertising agency. A five-member TDC review panel reviewed and scored each RFP and then identified the top four companies, who were each brought in for a 20-minute presentation and a 20-minute session of questions from the panel.
The four top-rated companies included BVK, Sapient Nitro, Sullivan Branding, and Zehnder Communications.
TDC Executive Director Dawn Moliterno said all four finalists had done well in the presentations and question and answer sessions, but that one, Zehnder, had "pulled away" from the rest.
TDC member Scott Russell, who had served on the panel, explained that not only had Zehnder demonstrated an excellent knowledge of the area, but that the company has offices in key market areas for south Walton, including New Orleans, Baton Rouge and Nashville. He said Zehnder had also indicated that they would be able to deliver the Visit South Walton mobile app through Apple.
Russell added that the panel felt that the Zehnder representatives had answered all their questions very well and had shown that they "understood who we were."
Moliterno said she had been impressed with the qualifications of Zehnder's staff and with their progressive ideas. The company, she continued, had provided assurance that they would be able to meet the county's financial policies, including the policy that payment would be provided after receipt of services rather than in advance. Only an agency with financial stability is able to comply with such a policy, Moliterno noted.
She said Zehnder had also assured the committee that they would be able to adhere to all public records requirements, including backing up, capturing and archiving social media, which had been a challenge for the industry statewide.
TDC member Richard Veldman asked if Zehnder was representing any nearby tourism entity in competition with south Walton. Moliterno responded that they were not and had stated that, while serving as the South Walton TDC's advertising agency, they would not pursue any such contracts.
In response to a question, Moliterno said that only one out of the 15 advertising agencies who responded to the RFP was a local company, Cornerstone Marketing and Advertising.
A motion to recommend to the BCC that the TDC begin contract negotiations with Zehnder was approved unanimously, with the provision that negotiations with runner-up Sapient Nitro would proceed if for some reason negotiations with Zehnder were unsuccessful.
Moliterno said that plans were for the results of the negotiations to be brought before the council members at their Sept. 11 regular meeting for a vote—and to the BCC later that day for final approval.
In other action at the Aug. 8 meeting, the council members voted in favor of entering into a $150,000 agreement with Mat Media, providing for an entire episode of "Emeril's Florida" to be filmed in and devoted to Walton County. This is a new Cooking Channel program featuring renowned chef Emeril Lagasse. If the agreement is approved, the program would air in 2013. Among other services, the contract includes six television commercials and six promotional billboards.
The tourism council's recommendation in favor of the media agreement was scheduled to go before the BCC on Aug. 14 for final approval.
The next TDC meeting, the regular quarterly meeting, is scheduled for 9 a.m. on Sept. 11 at the Bayou Arts Center.

I have some 3/8 plexiglass sheets and I have an idea to make replacement plexiglass side windows for my 67.
I have a vent window, then the door glass and a rear corner window..
They are slightly curved and I know that by gently heating the plexi. I can "form" it over the curve of the original glass.
What I need to know is what temerature to heat it to... And for how long.
I have access to a large digitally controlled industrial oven, It can set a temperature to half a degree from 150 F to 1000 F
I'm thinking it doesn't need to be super hot, maybe 200-210 degrees?
Just enough to soften it a little..
I am building a 67 Galaxie
460/4speed/4.56 Spool
It's stripped, lightened, gutted.
Measured weight so far. 3575 lb.
replacing the glass on the side will save me another 100 lb.

I agree. I used Lexan for the windows in my van. And if you're really serious about lightening, ditch the wing window all together. that's what I did. I also lost the crank mechanism, as that is unecessary weight. My windows are held in with dzus fasteners. Make a template out of thick cardboard first, then cut the lexan.
I can get some lexan pretty easily.
I just had the 3/8 plexi laying around..
I already have the door and window mechanisms already taken out.
I was planning on replacing the vent window and the door glass with a single piece of plastic. The problem, or maybe it won't be one is that the car is pillarless, the door window floats.. so I don't have channels to support the replacement piece...
Should use 1/4 inch? So it won't be too flimsy.

While most of the industries in the world are undergoing bitter
experience of the global recession the Swedish software company IFS said
the year 2008 is the best ever year of the company and the business is
flourishing and future is optimistic.
"Our revenue, profit, recruitment, expansion and R&D all have
increased while recession is hitting most of the industries in the
From left to right; Managing Director
IFS R&D Jonas Bridgwater, Senior Vice President Product and
Marketing Thomas Petersson, CEO and President Alastair
Sorbie and Vice President, IFS South Asia Jayantha De
Silva.Pic:sudath Malaweera
Therefore we believe that our products, most of them produced in Sri
Lanka, are good and our strategies are right" said the President and the
CEO of IFS Alastair Sorbie. He was addressing the media in Colombo last
"IFS has clients in 50 countries around the world and we are very
close and concerned about our clients. Because we know that they have
many choices and they have specific reason to select us. IFS R&D centre
in Sri Lanka is an important part of our company.
There are 700 employees here and it is one third of the IFS, Sorbie
IFS group Senior Vice President Thomas Petersson said that the R&D
centre in Colombo is by far the largest contributor to the development
and support of IFS applications. We are very impressed by the high
quality and competitiveness of our products in the international market
which are testaments to the success of our Sri Lanka operations.
Although Sri Lanka may not be perceived as the ideal destination for
outsourcing, it is the ideal location for IFS R&D operations.
Unlike India, it was easy to set up a strong recruitment process
the highly educated graduates from Sri Lanka's state and private
universities are similar in skills and qualifications to their
counterparts in the Nordic region.
They have an enormous drive and are always looking for new
developments. "Eleven years ago when we decided to start our R&D centre
in Colombo some criticised us and asked why we go to Sri Lanka without
looking at India or China.
Our decision was not ad hoc and we did a indepth study and found that
the graduates produced by the state universities are really good.
The market was untapped. Today we have proved that our decision is
We like the Sri Lankan mentality and the employees are loyal and stay
a long time with the employer.
In IFS we all are in one family and there is no offshoring in our
business, Petersson said.
Celebrating the 23rd anniversary on April 23, E-WIS marked the
beginning of another successful year ahead.
The Chairman/CEO Sanjeewa Wickramanayake said - "This journey was not
an easy one.
It was made possible by two very important parties. Firstly, our
committed customers who, through their suggestions on improvement and
constructive criticism made us what we are today. Secondly, the
committed E-WIS family who achieved supreme customer care in every
direction. `Customers for life' has been our philosophy throughout this
long journey. We serve our valued customers with the best quality
products, exceptional services and supreme customer care.
On this special day, I thank all our customers who had faith in us
and would like to renew the assurance of our continuous supreme customer

brain drain from rural to urban and develop rural communities."In the
1980's, the computer was a luxurious commodity and it was purchased as
an ornament to depict the status of the rich.

But today, everything has changed. People work on real time
applications and they live with the technology. The World is becoming
smaller and smaller with the advancements of the internet and technology

I made my apples yesterday and took a lot of photographs, then my husband came home and said, "they look more like tomatoes than apples. Apples aren't all red, they have streaks and spots of yellows and greens." Yep, he is right. Although I think the apples look great pure red, I did try streaking on some yellow and green luster dust and thought the effect was pretty nice. I wouldn't necessarily go out and buy the luster dusts just for this project, but it you have some on hand, by all means use it to give your apples more depth.
These apples will make nice end of the school year thank you gifts for teacher's but would also be a fun gift to give to your doctor – you know the "apple a day" saying.
If you don't make the apples, you should at least try to make the caramel modeling chocolate next time you need some milk chocolate modeling chocolate. I also used this recipe to make some dark caramel modeling chocolate changing the ratio of chocolate/Dulce de Leche a bit and thought it had a nice, but more subtle caramel flavor. I've yet to try it with white chocolate, but when I do, I'll be sure to let you know how it turns out.
Inside Out Chocolate Caramel Apples (makes 4)
Before you begin, if you aren't experienced with making chocolate, read my tutorial regarding types of chocolate, how to melt chocolate, and troubleshooting any problems you may encounter.
14 ounces good quality milk chocolate
1 (13.4) ounce can Dulce de Leche Caramel
8 ounces red confectionery coating/candy melts
1/2 dram – 1 dram Apple Flavoring
1-3 drops green food coloring
optional: a pinch of Citric Acid
If you prefer you can use Sour Green Apple Flavor Candy Flavoring Oil instead of the apple flavoring and citric acid.
offset spatula
wire cooling rack
plastic wrap and parchment paper
baking sheet that fits in your freezer
Melt milk chocolate and allow it to cool to about 91 degrees Fahrenheit. (For a detailed explanation of melting chocolate and why using melted chocolate that is too hot will result in oily modeling chocolate, read this tutorial. ) Stir in Dulce de Leche. The mixture will get very thick, but you need to make sure all of the caramel is mixed into the chocolate, so use your hands if needed. Once well mixed, wrap in plastic wrap and let rest for at least 30 minutes. When you unwrap the caramel modeling chocolate, knead it on the counter just until smooth about 30 seconds.
Pinch off a teaspoonful of the caramel modeling chocolate and place in a bowl. Add 1-3 drops of green food coloring and stir until well incorporated and green. Pinch off a small amount of the green colored caramel modeling chocolate and roll into a ball. Flatten and form into a leaf. Repeat to make 4 leaves (not pictured.) Pinch off about 1/2 teaspoonful of the caramel modeling chocolate and mold into a stem. Repeat to create 4 stems. Divide remaining caramel modeling chocolate into 4 balls, roll and shape into an apple. Use your finger to create an indentation on the top of each apple.
Melt red confectionery coating/candy melts. Place in a microwave safe bowl. Heat on high for 25 seconds then stir. Heat for 20 seconds and stir vigorously. If not melted, heat for 10 second increments, stirring after each, until melted. Stir in 1/2 dram (1/2 teaspoon) of the apple flavoring and citric acid, if using. Taste it and see if you'd like it to have a stronger apple flavor. If so, add more apple flavoring. Note: If your candy coating gets thick, you can add 1/2 teaspoon -1 teaspoon vegetable oil to thin it out.
Dip the bottom of each apple in the candy coating. Smooth using an offset spatula. Place in the freezer for 5 minutes so that the candy coating hardens.
Set a wire cooling rack over a piece of parchment paper. Set caramel chocolate apple, indentation side up, on the cooling rack. Pour red candy coating over the apple. Tap the cooling rack a few times. This will help the candy coating to run down the sides of the apple. Make sure the entire apple is covered, especially around the bottom. Use a spatula to fill in any places that aren't covered in the candy coating.
Carefully lift the apple using an offset spatula and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Immediately add the stem and leaf to the indentation in the apple. Place in freezer for 8-10 minutes until candy coating is hardened. Repeat with remaining apples. I suggest you freeze each apple as you complete it, as the red candy coating has a tendency to dry with white streaks if left at room temperature for too long. Don't freeze the apples for too long either or they might crack, get sticky, or streak.
You can purchase boxes or cellophane bags to package your apples if you plan to give them as gifts. The apples will keep for at least one month if kept in an airtight container.
If you want to add embellishments to your apple, you can write a special message on the outside of the apple using a food coloring marker. You can also make some decorations out of modeling chocolate and attach them to the apple. How about a worm, or a graduation cap, or even a cute face?

Gabriel D. Roberts delivers an essay on what consciousness is and why it is important to recognize and work toward a heightened state of consciousness.
"For some readers, the word consciousness conjures up visions of bearded Hindu masters, to those from a traditional Christian view, consciousness is associated with the devil's white light intended to fool the eager initiate into allowing a demonic possession. But what is consciousness, really? The standard definition is simply awareness. Doctors judge levels of consciousness while prepping a person for surgery, because the level of awareness of the patient is integral to judging when a surgery can get started. It is simply a term for the level of an individual's ability to accurately percieve the environment in which they exist."

Radiant heat and asbestos tiles
I'm currently negotiating to buy a home. The inspection revealed the floor tiles are most likely asbestos (9x9) considering the home was built in 1960. The house one floor, built on a concrete slab, and has radiant heat.
I believe I'm going to cover the tiles with something else rather than have them removed but don't want to hinder the heat from getting through the tiles. The tiles are in good shape and run throughout most of the 3-bedroom (1,000 sq ft) home except for the kitchen.
Just curious as to what kind of flooring people would recommend to put over these tiles considering the heat comes through the floor.
I know this doesn't help but is it too late to back out? Asbstos anwhere in the house could scare away future buyers should you decide to sell.
If you buy the house, convert before doing any floor work.

Textiles Still Going Strong at High Point Market
May 15, 2006,
High Point, N.C. — Despite what many exhibitors felt was a significant decline in traffic, home textiles suppliers saw plenty of qualified buyers that wrote orders. Luxury bedding and decorative pillows, and color, color and more color were the standouts, the exhibitors said. The pinched traffic was a consequence of the concurrent Hospitality Design Show in Las Vegas and the absence of some West Coast retailers who had attended the Las Vegas home furnishings show at the World Market Center in January.
Said Richard Downing, president of the newly formed top of the bed division of Leggett & Platt, "Sales were on a par with earlier markets in dollars. Maybe we lost some West Coast buyers who visited us at the Las Vegas market."
Ann Gish, a longtime exhibitor here, observed, "We did alright. It was not a fantastic show — traffic was really down, and I believe the hospitality show in Vegas took away many of the buyers. I didn't see a lot of the regulars, but we did see some new designers and a few new stores."
At Textillery Weavers, Judith Rose, co-principal, said, "Overall we had some really good days and wrote new business." But the impact of the hospitality show was evident in traffic and in the fact that the company showed at both events concurrently.
In its new space at the temporary Suites at Market Square, Malabar Grove had a good market, according to Mary Grove. But she also was concerned by the apparent lack of traffic.
With the dates of the market here shifting, Jan Dutton, principal of Paper White, lamented the "lack of excitement because there's really no beginning or ending." Still, Dutton termed this market as "good with qualified buyers, but as far as the number of people — no!"
At Thief River Linens, "We went into the market with some trepidation because we were launching our new approach of window panels, custom work and special programs," said Linda Bentson, president. "We got good reception to the new concept and we're very excited about the new products."
For rep organization head Lynn Courtade, the addition of the Home Source International luxury bedding and bath was a success: "There's lots of interest in natural and organic luxury bedding. Designers are taking rugs out of homes and replacing them with solid wood floors."
She said the Nina Campbell designed throws distributed by T. Lockman for Johnson Bros. were another important piece of her strong luxury business.
Pamela Kline, principal of Traditions by Pamela Kline, reported both good business and traffic at the company's stand at Suites at Market Square, as did Nancy Reib, principal of Wildcat Territory, who noted, "We're doing great; we were busy and we had a happy market."
Company C's Janet Wright said, "Our expanded showroom attracted a lot of new people and we wrote good business."
And this market marked the debut of the new Alexander Julian bedding licensed to Hallmart, a program that created strong interest, said Steven Goldstein, director of sales.
