How Do You Conserve Water at Home?
Using less water at home can save you money. What are some of the best ways to conserve water? Our recent article, Save Money on Water suggests taking advantage of the WaterSense program. It is a program sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency that began in 2006 to promote the conservation of the U.S. water supply. It allows people to easily identify fixtures and appliances that are more water-efficient.
In particular, a water-efficient toilet can make a big difference in your water use. For more about different types of toilets, check out our article on Best Options for High Efficiency Toilets

All The Letters I Wished I Sent But Didn't
Semi-Autobiographical novel in progress about all the things I wished I had said to people but never did. From transitions to psych wards to foster homes to feeling alone and being lonely.
Dear Mother,
I never wanted it to end up like this. But mother you have to realise that I had to get away, that the floorboards were snapping every time I stepped over a crack in the past. I did it for your own good too. You held your soul on your sleeve, and begged for me to hold it too. I held it for a long time; clutched tight in the palm of my clammy hand. But after 15 years it started to slip – slipping through the gaps between my fingers. It's a lot for my poor body to carry around with me.
I didn't intend in going into the psych ward again because I knew you would hate me if I did. And you did. And you never even visited me until it was too late and I had already let go. I resented you for that, because when places are so crowded like that hospital, I start to feel lonely. And sometimes all you need is a familiar face that isn't trying to impose strange coloured pills down your throat. Being in a place full of strangers makes you start to feel strange. Most nights people spent their time in the therapy rooms cradled by their families. I spent mine looking at them in envy. So when they told me about a foster family I took this better prospect – partly out of spite but partly because I wanted to get out of this place but home wasn't much better either.
It's not you whom I hate, not your personality either. It's your illness that everybody is running away from, and they're running away fast. Quick, catch them before they turn
The corner
Too late.

"My cats love these. They are quick and simple to make. For anyone unfamiliar with the yarn that is suggested for the pattern, it is a fingering weight, 4 ply yarn that is 100 percent cotton. I used worsted weight and a 3.5mm hook for mine, so I wouldnt have to worry about the cats pulling the stuffing out through any holes."

"What does (K1. Inc 1 st in next st.) mean? I think st means stitch, but I don't understand how to do what it says. Thank you "
"This is absolutely stunning! I love it. I love vintage China and this is one way to display it. For my own personal taste I would use less pieces in the back, or even paint the background to make it pop more, and use the broken pieces on,y around the border as a type of frame. But that's just me. Alternatively, using less cups and just feature a ew with the broken pieces may set them off better. But all in all this is a great idea and display! Love it!"

kkc1 Review
Product arrived with huge gash in the box. I was not there to receive it but not sure if delivery company would have taken it back anyway. This was delivered to a vacation home so returning not possible due to schedule and need for table. Table had a gash as it went throught to the table top. I repaired the best I could at the time and put a palce mat over it I'll take a look at it when I return. Chairs were very easy to assemble. Table very difficult, 2 people for assembling would be better. While I recommend it please do so with caveats noted.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? top MUCH darker that pictured
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. good for price point except for gash
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? color not accurate

Painting a New Scene
Although it'd taken me 2 months to finally creep out of my rut, it didn't seem to affect the wealth of excitement which simmered happily as I strode down the bustling street, weaving my way through countless jostling bodies. Even the chilly rain which had just started to spatter on my cheeks and blanket the city with a depressive icing couldn't hope to dampen my spirits. The day at the office had dragged on and on; a watched clock never moves. I gulped down the warming tea that I clasped between glove-clad hands, feeling it radiate down to my stomach and mingle with the hum of anticipation and fresh enthusiasm which seemed to singe and tingle in my fingertips. An old building came into view and I glanced at my watch to check how I was doing for time. I was still alright. Ten minutes early actually. Pushing open a wooden door, I found myself standing in a heavily ornate lobby, the sudden muffling silence physically calming. Everything was either wooden or marble; cherubim balanced on swirled pillars and exotic plants nestled in every corner. My eyes caught sight of the imposing dome ceiling and the hundreds of detailed paintings which lined its inside. It was magnificent.
Suddenly feeling somewhat small and underdressed, I hastily began swiping at my rather creased chinos and glanced in dismay at my grubby shoes. It was too late now. I approached the oak desk, running my fingers across the intricate carving which bordered its rim. A neatly composed woman sat behind the desk, her black hair strung up in a deftly styled bun. As she looked up at me attentively, her pretty crystal earrings dangled and I noticed her badge read 'Anita'.
"Hello. Can I ask which way it is to..." I referred momentarily to my crumpled sheet of paper. "Room 34D in the Hart Wing? I have a class there." She promptly gave me directions with a reassuring smile and I thanked her, making my way through the set of double doors beyond the entrance. Reaching the room, I eased the heavy door open nervously to be greeted by, to my slight relief, a much more ordinary classroom decked out with high rough-edged desks scattered around the centre, with stools tucked underneath.
More people began to trickle in, some looking just as anxious as me; I was relieved I wasn't the only one. As I sat there silently, trying not to look awkward, I subtly studied all the different fashion styles that each person wore – black lace up boots and a shabby dark skirt was worn by one petite girl; another had loose beige pantaloons matched with a cream blouse, contrasting with her deep red lipstick on a striking complexion. Each one was so unique and I began to feel quite ordinary in my trousers and jumper. Even the two guys who sauntered in at five minutes to eight donned trench coats and interesting graphic tees. The class mainly consisted of girls, who seemed to already be chatting away, getting acquainted with one another. One girl sat to the side, a stormy expression plastered on her pale face, headphones clamped on cropped bleached hair, chewing gum and practically shouting 'don't talk to me'. The two guys, who appeared to already know each other, took seats in front of the sinks across from me. I turned to see a slight girl carefully placing her bag beside her and she sat down so quietly that I may not have noticed her. Brown sleek hair spilled over her shoulders onto a long colourful floral top, which reached the middle of her thighs. She slung her cropped jacket carefully over the back of the chair and then pulled out a pad of paper and a pen. She seemed to be absent in her own world so I felt slightly rude when I said in my friendliest voice 'Hello there', and thrust out my hand towards her.
She turned to me almost in surprise and flashed a shy rosy smile. Her eyes were hazel, with freckles scattered down her cheeks like cheerful tears, and she raised her hand to shake mine tentatively. Her skin was cold and smooth and her hand so fragile, I felt as though I would crush it. She raised her left hand to her throat and tapped it lightly, shaking her head. It was my turn to be surprised and I hoped it didn't show too much on my face. I felt an unfamiliar twinge of confusion as to how to proceed – should I carry on talking? But in a snap decision, I quickly reached down to my satchel, pulled out my scrappy notepad and pencil and jotted down, "Hey, my name is Michael. How are you?" Pushing the pad towards her, I was pleased to see she took it with enthusiasm and began instantly scribbling down with astonishing speed, almost a mini essay. Before she had finished writing, I noticed an older woman making her way to the front of the room. She leant her back on the edge of the front desk and looked out towards us, the excited introductory babble dying down as she began to speak.
"Right, well, I'm just going to begin. So, welcome, to the first of nine sessions for the course Painting, Drawing and Mixed Media, Intermediate level. My name is Sarah Torndale and I'll be your teacher for this course. I'm pleased to see so many have you have managed to make it to this first session. First, just to get to know one another, if everyone would like to briefly introduce themselves – give your name and just maybe a quick sentence about why you're here. Don't worry, I'm not asking for anything elaborate." Her chuckle was emulated by the rest of us in a nervous suppressed kind of laugh.
I was instantly hit by a concern- what would the girl do when it got round to her turn for introductions? Would she think it rude if I gave her introduction for her? I had to cut myself short in my erratic musings and shook myself. What was I thinking – she lived with this kind of thing every day. Her notepad was shuffled in my direction, which read:
"Hey, my name is Kathryn. I've been mute for many years now. It's best if we talk through notes. :) I decided to take this art course cos I've been out of practice drawing and painting and I really wanted to take it up again. How about you?"I liked the twirls she'd made on her 't's and 'y's. I caught her smiling encouragingly at me. Then I looked round and everyone's gaze was suddenly fixed on Kathryn, in expectation.

Mourinho's behaviour after being banned for both legs of their quarter-final tie against Bayern Munich two years ago has always been shrouded in doubt, but Sportsmail can reveal that he risked the wrath of UEFA by entering the Stamford Bridge dressing room before escaping, undetected, in a skip that is normally used for transporting kit.
Scroll down to read more
Accusations were made on the night of Wednesday April 6, 2005, with observers convinced that Chelsea fitness coach Rui Faria was using an earpiece hidden under a woolly hat to communicate with Mourinho.
Members of the media alerted UEFA officials at half-time and Faria stopped scratching his ear, but it was then noted how many times Silvinho Louro, the goalkeeping coach, returned to the dressing room during the second half of a game Chelsea won 4-2.
Louro would reappear armed with scraps of paper that were then passed to other members of the coaching staff and seemed to coincide with the three substitutions that were made.
Mourinho laughed off the accusations afterwards, claiming that Louro was a "nervous spectator". At the same time Chelsea also denied that Faria had an earpiece and mocked UEFA and the media by then sending in Faria to do the pre-match press conference for the second leg in Munich.
UEFA had banned Mourinho from having any contact with his players during the game as punishment for his part in the controversy that marred Chelsea's tie with Barcelona in the previous round.
Mourinho questioned the integrity of referee Anders Frisk — accusing him of allowing himself to be influenced by rival boss Frank Rijkaard during the interval — and was branded an "enemy of football" by a senior UEFA official.
The punishment followed but Mourinho thought it so unjust, claim dressing-room sources, that he came up with an almost comical plan.
Gaining access to the dressing room was simple enough. He arrived shortly after lunch, even though it would mean waiting more than four hours for his players to join him.
"In the afternoon you haven't got anyone around," said one source. "He just walked in."
It meant Mourinho was in place to give his pre-match team talk and all-important half-time address and watch the game on the television that is in the dressing room.
Communication with the bench, according to sources, was achieved by using an earpiece that was worn by Faria and either a mobile phone or a radio.
"It was so obvious, to keep playing with your ear like that," said a source. "It depends what network you're on and what room you're in, but you can get mobile reception in the dressing room."
Scroll down for more
The method of escape was planned in advance and it was decided Mourinho would leave about 10 minutes before the end of the game.
A kit skip was identified as the perfect vehicle for the job and after squeezing into it and covering himself in kit, the lid was closed and Mourinho was wheeled to the Stamford Bridge health club where it was claimed he had spent the entire evening after being spotted going in there earlier that day.
UEFA officials were too busy watching the game to realise what was going on, and so for that matter were members of the Bayern Munich contingent.
Mourinho was so thrilled by his antics that the next day he joked openly about his journey in the skip with players and staff at the training ground and vowed to defy UEFA in the second leg.
Gaining access to the dressing room on that occasion was impossible but he decided to get round that, it has now emerged, by having a loudspeaker taken in so he could talk to his players.
He took his seat in the stands before fleeing because of the close attention from a television crew, choosing instead to watch the game back at the team hotel.
According to a source "there was a massive speaker" in the dressing room at Munich's Olympic Stadium.
"Jose was at the hotel," added the source. "Obviously Roman's [Abramovich] security sorted it all out."
UEFA officials approached Faria that night to check if he had anything hidden under his hat but again they were outmanoeuvred by the Portuguese.
He has a history for such subterfuge, as he admitted in his own autobiography. He wrote how, in his days as manager at FC Porto, he overcame a touchline ban by sending messages to his coaching staff from the stands via "a small, sophisticated telecommunications device".
On another occasion he wrote of using a speakerphone to deliver his half-time address.
Last night Chelsea issued a statement, saying: "The situation is very clear. Both matches were controlled by UEFA and they were more than satisfied on both nights that their ruling was intact, hence the statements that were issued by UEFA at the time and subsequently.
"The only reason to publish this so close to a big match is to serve an agenda that is intended to undermine our team."
UEFA said they would not be taking issue with Mourinho.
Chelsea midfielder Michael Essien, 24, was breathalysed in south London shortly after Sunday night's PFA awards dinner on suspicion of drink-driving. He is due to answer bail in July.

Bobby: Sheet Music
I hear some amazing music coming from the practice room next to me. Whoever is playing on the piano has practiced a lot. Either that or the player is a natural.
I walk over to see that it is Kezzy. Another girl I have not met is with her. I wait for their conversation to be over and then walk up to Kezzy.
"Was that you?"
"Uh, yeah."
"That was amazing. I know who I want to team up with for the battle of the bands. Your piano playing will win the whole contest, methinks."
She laughs but doesn't explain what she laughed at, so I give her a look. She then explains, "Never heard anyone say 'methinks.'"
"Oh, that's just a word ... used it for years. It's kind of my thing."
I pull out a sheet of music and hand it to her. She puts it on the piano stand and plays the first few measures (or bars, depending on who you ask).
"So, what do you think?" I ask.

This Is Our Best Look at the 2017 WRC Season Yet
Without Volkswagen, it's going to be Citroën versus Ford, Hyundai and Toyota in the world's most challenging racing series.
380 horsepower. That's how much everybody should've had against Volkswagen's ponies during the 2017 World Rally Championship. Unfortunately, the German brand decided to leave the series despite having a car ready to go. That's quite crazy, but not surprising given that Audi's R18 LMP1 chassis for the 2017 WEC season was also ready for Toyota and Porsche when they pulled the plug on it. That's crazy, but so is the whole seemingly never-ending Dieselgate story.
Following that sudden turn of events, it all comes down to Hyundai to build momentum for its N performance brand, Citroën to push their brand new C3 racer to victory, M-Sport to bring back Ford's glory days and Toyota to show what they can do with Tommi Mäkinen as team principal after a 17-year break.
Too bad about the reigning champion's decision. VW will be missed.

|Goebbels and Hitler the day after Kristallnacht!
If you are of the opinion that there is absolutely no chance that something like the Holocaust could ever happen again, that no man possessing the evil of an Adolf Hitler could ever rise to power again or that Islamic extremists could never fly airplanes into skyscrapers in the U.S. again just remember that time and time again history has always tended to repeat itself!
And as if the plague of history wasn't bad enough we have the Obama administration, aka 'The Gang Who Couldn't Shoot Straight', apparently loosening sanctions on an Iran that has pledged to destroy Israel and the West and who will stop at nothing to get the nuclear weapons to try and accomplish it.
So when sitting back in the relative calm that we in the United States find ourselves living under today, remember the following phrase:
First they came for the communists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak out because I was Protestant.
Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak out...
November 9 into November 10, 1938 was the night in Germany and Austria that became known as Kristallnacht or 'Night of Broken Glass'.
A day that marked the true beginning of the overt violent and deadly persecution of the Jews as opposed the persecution of the legislative kind that came before it.
Kristallnacht was violence that was justified by Goebbels and Hitler in the following way:
'It is an intolerable state of affairs that within our borders and for all these years hundreds of thousands of Jews still control whole streets of shops, populate our recreation spots and, as foreign apartment owners, pocket the money of German tenants, while their racial comrades abroad agitate for war against Germany and gun down German officials.'
|Shoes of death - Danube
It is particularly stark in Europe and together with the rise of Islamic extremism poses a huge threat not only to Jews but to anyone who is non-Muslim as evidenced by the slaughter of Christians in many Middle Eastern and African countries.
Here are recent global examples of the hatefulness that persists...
At Michigan State back in August 2012:
'At Michigan State University a student is beaten unconscious by a group of men who asked if he was Jewish, flashed the Nazi salute and cried out "Heil Hitler"!'
In Scotland December 2012?
'...Members of Scottish Jewish Student Chaplaincy and the Scottish Council of Jewish Communities told the university bosses that Jewish students had felt it necessary to "hide their Jewish identity due to the hostile atmosphere at Edinburgh" and were now seeking "secure and safe" space on campus.'
The naysayers will say that these are just isolated incidents and that there is no actual proof of a building trend of anti-Jewish sentiment or of a pattern of hatred of the West by Islamic extremists.
To those who make this claim I point to the increasing numbers of terror attacks occurring around the world including the mall attack in Nairobi, Kenya in September 2013 during which those who could prove they were followers of the Muslim faith were released while those who could not were brutally murdered.
My friends there is evil and hatred in this world no different than that which existed before, during and after Kristallnacht in 1938.
For those who may have forgotten, who may simply need a reminder or who may actually believe that such people do not still exist in the world here is a tutorial on Kristallnacht.
'On November 9–10, 1938, the Nazis staged violent pogroms—state sanctioned, anti-Jewish riots—against the Jewish communities of Germany, Austria, and the Sudetenland. These events came to be known as Kristallnacht (commonly translated as "Night of Broken Glass"), a reference to the broken windows of synagogues, Jewish-owned stores, community centers, and homes plundered and destroyed that night. Instigated by the Nazi regime, rioters burned or destroyed 267 synagogues, vandalized or looted 7,500 Jewish businesses, and killed at least 91 Jewish people. They also damaged many Jewish cemeteries, hospitals, schools, and homes as police and fire brigades stood aside.
Kristallnacht was a turning point in Nazi anti-Jewish policy that would culminate in the Holocaust—the systematic, state-sponsored mass murder of the European Jews.' (Source)
"There are only patterns, patterns on top of patterns, patterns that affect other patterns. Patterns hidden by patterns. Patterns within patterns.
If you watch close, history does nothing but repeat itself.
What we call chaos is just patterns we haven't recognized. What we call random is just patterns we can't decipher. what we can't understand we call nonsense. What we can't read we call gibberish.
There is no free will.
There are no variables."
― Chuck Palahniuk, Survivor (Source)

Four unmissable media events are coming up over the next couple of weeks. Here they are in chronological order. Note that tickets must be bought for three of them, while the fourth requires advance registration...
Life after Leveson: the future of media freedom in the UK
Index on Censorship is staging a discussion on press freedom against the background of the continuing row over a new form of press regulation and the introduction of a new defamation law.
Taking part will be Gill Phillips (Guardian Media Group's legal director), Gavin Millar QC (of Doughty Street Chambers), Jonathan Heawood (director of the Impress Project) and Tom Phillips (Buzzfeed UK). It will be chaired by Padraig Reidy of Index on Censorship.
It will take place on Wednesday 19 February (6.30pm-8pm) at Doughty Street Chambers. Details here. Register for tickets here
How can women succeed in journalism?
Women in Journalism and Wannabe Hacks are staging a panel discussion on how women can make it in the media industry.
On the panel will be Krissi Murison, Sunday Times magazine associate editor; Fay Schelsinger, home news editor at The Times; Katie Hind, Sunday People showbiz editor; Sue Ryan, head of the Daily Mail's trainee reporters' scheme; Alice Vincent, Daily Telegraph arts and entertainment writer; and Jennifer Richardson, editor of Chemist + Druggist magazine.

Blowing bubbles with West Ham manager Sam Allardyce
The London Press Club is hosting an evening with one of football's most entertaining characters - the current manager of West Ham United, Sam Allardyce. Previously manager of Bolton, Newcastle and Blackburn, Allardyce joined West Ham in 2011 and immediately secured the team's promotion to the Premier League.
This season, things have been less happy. Hammers fans have been singing the club's anthem, "I'm forever blowing bubbles", with gusto but they have watched their team lose most of their matches. So what will big Sam have to say about that? Billed as "a rare encounter", it's unlikely to be a dull evening.
It will be held at the London sports bar, Rileys on Haymarket, starting at 6.30pm on Tuesday 25 February. More details here.
Places are limited, with priority given to club members. Email email@example.com to reserve your space - free for members; £10 for non-members payable on the door.
What does the future hold for the BBC?
The Media Society is marking the publication of the book Is the BBC in crisis?* with a discussion based around its title.
Hardly a month passes without the BBC being engulfed in some kind of controversy. There has been the Jimmy Savile scandal, the swift departure of director-general George Entwistle, the golden pay-offs scandal and the continuing alarm over decreasing budgets. Is public trust in the BBC declining? Will the charter be renewed intact in 2017? What should happen and why?
Answering these questions, and arguing about them, will be Professor Steve Barnett of Westminster university and David Elstein, former chief executive of Channel Five, head of programming at BSkyB and director of programmes at Thames TV. Trying to keep order will be Steve Hewlett, presenter of Radio 4's The Media Show.
It will take place at the Adam Street private members' club on 5 March (6pm-8pm). Details here. Book here
*Is the BBC in crisis? edited by John Mair, Richard Tait and Richard Lance Keeble will be published by Abramis on 1 March.

Samsung Meets With ARM to Discuss 64-Bit CPU for 2014 Galaxy S5, 128-bit Chips

Sender E-mail
Samsung also is eyeing Cortex-M processors for its Smart TVs and appliances
Two of the smartphone market's biggest powers met this week to discuss processors. UK-based ARM Holdings plc (
), an architecture company whose titular instruction set is found in 95 percent of smartphones sold today, traveled to South Korea, the home turf of Android phonemaker South Korea's Samsung Electronics Comp., Ltd. (
). Samsung
accounted for over 30 percent of global smartphone shipments
in Q3 -- nearly three times more than any other OEM.
Samsung and ARM met to discuss the adoption of ARM's new ARMv8 64-bit instruction set, which
Samsung's upcoming Exynos 6 processors for next year's Galaxy S5
expected to use
. Antonio Viana, ARM's executive vice president of commercial and global development, met with senior Samsung executives to talk about the roadmap to 64-bit and beyond.
An unnamed senior manager at ARM with knowledge of the meeting suggested 128-bit chips might also have been discussed. While PC CPUs have yet to hit 128-bit,
The Korea Herald
the senior ARM executive as saying there was a "possibility" that ARM would release a 128-bit instruction set in the next two years and push for smartphone/tablet adoption. But the Korean publication says the ARM official said these plans were only a "possibility" and not a definite plan at present.
Samsung wants to make sure that its Exynos chips for next year's Galaxy S5 have access to ARM's best instruction set -- the 64-bit ARMv8 instruction set.
The official is quoted as suggesting that smartphones soon may have more than 4 GB of memory and need 64-bit processors to address their memory. The source stated, "As technology moves from, for example, shifting to face recognition on smartphones from the
fingerprint scanner to unlock an iPhone
, it requires more powerful memory capacity."
It also appears that ARM is incentivizing the transition to 64-bit ARM chips in the mobile market, in part, to
fuel its server ambitions
, as well as its PC push.
While 64-bit chips offer some gains in graphics and I/O addition to the aforementioned memory addressing gains, processing is generally otherwise unaffected. However, ARM is purposefully
tilting the playing field in 64-bit's flavor
by designing its new instruction sets -- which allow more registers -- to only work for 64-bit chips. 32-bit chips will be forced to use the older, less optimized ARMv7. In other words, ARM is telling mobile chipmakers to make the switch or settle with last generation instruction sets.
This push will allow ARM to foster an ecosystem of compatible applications, which may help the chip designer to
push into the PC and server markets
, two key areas of desired growth.
Samsung may look to use the Cortex M chips in new appliances.
Samsung and ARM also reportedly discussed the
Cortex-M processor
, a low power core design which Samsung may look to use in its appliances and Smart TVs.
The Korea Herald
"It looks like the iPhone 4 might be their Vista, and I'm okay with that." -- Microsoft COO Kevin Turner

Anything I Think Of
Just a kind of diary, but not really. I just write down stuff about the topic I'm thinking of at the moment. Feel free to add.
So these are the basic things for this "story." (Quotations because it's not exactly a story.)
- Write a chapter for a topic you're thinking of at the moment, add your thoughts, and anything else you want in your post.
- Your topic can be as random as you like.
- Please don't post any mature content.
Well, I think that's about it. I hope you enjoy this "story" and add to it.

Wedding planning can be a drag--budgeting, appeasing families, working on deadline--but it can also be a blast--flowers, dresses, desserts! Are those enough to make you want to be a wedding planner? They were for one Save the Date reader whom you may remember…
One of my most favorite real weddings that I ever had the pleasure of writing about was Ayesha and Zachary's. (So gorgeous and personal, right?) When Ayesha contacted me to let me know about her new wedding-planning business and an event she's holding for brides in Chattanooga, TN, on March 13th, it made me so much sense to me. Ayesha had a ton of unique ideas for her wedding and some serious style.
Did I toy with the idea of becoming a wedding planner myself? For a hot minute, sure. The only things I didn't like about wedding planning--being short on cash and having some family drama--would disappear if I were planning someone else's wedding, leaving only the fun stuff to think about. Plus, my friends are always coming to me for help with their wedding planning--I could totally get paid to do that! But then I thought, do I really want to deal with other people's money and family issues? And truthfully, I'm lacking talent in the design department (every wedding I planned would probably end up purple). So yeah, I'll stick to being a wedding guest.
Has planning your own wedding made you want to become a professional wedding planner? Or does the idea of dealing with all the not-so-great stuff that come along with weddings stress you out too much to consider a career change? Has wedding planning made you think about taking on other wedding-related jobs (I'd love, love, love to be a wedding singer!)

For 1,200 years, o-henro-san (pilgrims) have walked the 88-temple pilgrimage route across Shikoku Island, following in the footsteps of the great 8th century Buddhist saint Kobo Daishi, the most revered figure in Japanese Buddhism. We've selected the most beautiful temples—and hikes—to create a captivating journey across this legendary isle. You'll follow trails between venerated temples, climb one of Shikoku's highest peaks, and discover the remote Iya Valley, a vestige of old Japan with its kazura-bashi (vine bridges) and 300-year-old thatched farmhouses. Cultural adventures abound, from a soak in the thousand-year-old Dogo Onsen (hot spring) to stays at a temple lodging and a welcoming family-run ryokan in the mountains.
Days 1-4
Osaka / Koyasan Monastery / Temple Hikes
Our journey begins at Koyasan, the monastery where Kobo Daishi is buried. Pilgrims traditionally come here to ask for his "support" before starting their hikes and we'll do the same. After getting our pilgrim's "passport" (to be stamped at each temple), we boat to Shikoku and begin our pilgrimage at Ryozen-ji, the first temple on the circuit. We'll also visit Kakurin-ji, a mountain temple 1,500 feet above the sea, and a temple where pilgrims touch an ancient tree said to have been planted by Kobo Daishi.
Days 5-8
Iya Valley / Matsuyama / Dogo Onsen
In the Iya Valley, whose high peaks and deep gorges made it a safe haven for the Heike Clan during the civil wars of the 12th century, our hike brings us up sacred Tsurugi-san (6,412'), a peak steeped in legend. After a visit to the famed Taga-jinja Fertility Shrine, we hike to Iwaya-ji Temple, perched on a cliffside above the valley floor. In Matsuyama, explore Matsuyama-jo, a castle with bird's-eye views of the Seto Inland Sea, and soak in Matsuyama's Dogo Onsen hot springs, one of the oldest public bath houses in Japan, with a history dating back a thousand years.
Days 9-11
Kompira-san / Okubo-ji / Awaji Island / Osaka
We visit Zentsu-ji Temple, where Kobo Daishi was born, walk through an underground tunnel that pilgrims must "feel" their way through, then climb the 1,368 steps to the Shinto shrines of Kompira-san, dedicated to sailors and seafarers. Our final stop is Okubo-ji, or Temple 88, the last temple on the pilgrimage trail and a must-see for us. After an overnight on Awaji Island, known in Japanese folklore as the birthplace of Japan, we depart on Day 11 via Osaka.
Easy to moderate hikes, 2-5 hours a day on hiking days, walking tours, many temple stairs

Tall Order
For this spring wedding, gold candelabras create elegant centerpieces of blush pale green hydrangeas, soft pink garden roses and bubblegum ranunculus. At the base, mercury glass vases have tufts of hydrangea, dusty miller and a single pink garden rose.
Harvest Colors
Manzanita branches surrounded by a mass of orange garden roses, mokara orchids, antique hydrangeas, Pink Lady apples and Champagne grapes set the stage for this early fall vineyard wedding designed by Bergerons Flowers in Washington, D.C. As an added bonus, table numbers were fashioned out of fresh moss.
Pop of Pastel
This low pedestal bowl designed by Bergerons Flowers in Washington, D.C. holds the soft pastel hues of dusty miller, peonies, garden roses, stock and green hydrangea.
Gathered Garden Style
"Textures abound with elements only autumn can bring," Christi Lopez, president of Bergerons Flowers in Washington, D.C., says of this tall centerpiece with a "gathered garden" style of ornamental kale, dahlias, hanging amaranthus, fresh seckle pears and rosemary.
Ups and Downs
"The bouquets at low level offer sensory excitement with lush and intoxicating blossoms like gardenias, sweet peas and garden roses," floral designer Amy Webb of Blue Ridge Floral Design says of this reception table. "The majority of the blooms were harvested locally just days before the event."
Urn Your Keep
According to Amy Webb at Blue Ridge Floral Design in Afton, Virginia, this reception table was set with several tall, wild arrangements lit with suspended votives. "Empty mercury glass urns along with a collection of pillar and votive candles occupied the space between," Webb says. "After the ceremony, the bride and bridesmaids placed their bouquets into the empty vases to finish the table with blooms."
Short and Sweet
Beehive Events in Scottsville, Virginia designed this head table with square white ceramic containers filled with snowball viburnum, lemon lime hydrangea, open cut Geraldine roses, open cut avalanche roses, light pink peonies, jasmine, scented geranium and black pussywillow.
Towering Centerpieces
High and low centerpieces created by Beehive Events in Scottsville, Virginia made a dramatic statement at this wedding reception. Tall glass cylinder vases were filled with flowering dogwood branches, flowering apple branches, white French tulips, tall snowball viburnum and flowering jasmine. Glass votive candle holders were suspended from the branches.
Sand and Snow
White hydrangeas encircle tall branches encased with ice crystals that were set in cylinders filled with sand to represent snow. "We used water picks for the stems and hid them so it looks like they are floating," says Amy Webb of Blue Ridge Floral Design in Afton, Virginia. "The tables were complimented by candles of different heights."


text: SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Scleroderma Research Foundation today said that researchers at The Johns Hopkins University working in a novel mouse model of Stiff Skin Syndrome have made key discoveries that may have broad implications for future scleroderma therapy. In a report to be published online on October 10th in Nature, scientists show that integrin-modulating agents can arrest fibrosis in a model of scleroderma-like skin fibrosis and, more strikingly, that established fibrosis can be resolved with such agents. Although years away from an approved drug, the conclusion stands in sharp contrast to traditional thinking about scleroderma's irreversible advance and its resistance to therapeutic intervention. The Scleroderma Research Foundation has supported the work for the past six years. Systemic sclerosis (commonly referred to as scleroderma) is a rare autoimmune disease affecting approximately 1 in 4,000 Americans. A signature symptom is fibrosis of the skin, although the disease typically affects the lungs, kidneys and other organs with life-threatening consequences. Like many complex, adult-onset autoimmune diseases, animal models replicate some, but not all features of the disease. This gap has slowed work in the scleroderma field. In the Nature report, a group led by Hal Dietz, M.D., focused on a genetic fibrotic disease called Stiff Skin Syndrome to provide insights. Dr. Dietz is a Professor of Genetics at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Director of the William S. Smilow Center for Marfan Syndrome Research and an Investigator for the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. "We looked to Stiff Skin Syndrome, an ultra-rare form of inherited scleroderma-like skin fibrosis as a means to understand the very similar skin fibrosis of systemic sclerosis," explains Dietz. "Reasoning that if we could understand how a single point mutation in the fibrillin-1 (FBN1) protein causes skin fibrosis in Stiff Skin Syndrome (SSS), this would help us to understand the biological pathways involved in systemic sclerosis, a typically acquired, adult-onset autoimmune disease." "There may be a final common pathway by which cells lose their normal control," postulates Dietz, "and even if one condition is genetic and the other is not, they may both funnel down to the same mechanism."

text: Has anyone ordered these for their ST? I bought them from Hel and selected the lines for the Mk7 ST. When I got them I was surprised to see that one set of lines has banjo bolts which I assume would be for the rears on a drum brake setup, but in peering thru the wheels it looks like all 4 corners are traditional threaded attachments. Am I missing something or did they send me the wrong thing?

ProductsMore About The Scorch Trials by James DashnerOverviewSolving the Maze was supposed to be the end. No more puzzles. No more variables. And no more running. Thomas was sure that escape meant he and the Gladers would get their lives back. But no one really knew what sort of life they were going back to.
In the Maze, life was easy. They had food, and shelter, and safety . . . until Teresa triggered the end. In the world outside the Maze, however, the end was triggered long ago.
Burned by sun flares and baked by a new, brutal climate, the earth is a wasteland. Government has disintegratedand with it, orderand now Cranks, people covered in festering wounds and driven to murderous insanity by the infectious disease known as the Flare, roam the crumbling cities hunting for their next victim . . . and meal.
The Gladers are far from finished with running. Instead of freedom, they find themselves faced with another trial. They must cross the Scorch, the most burned-out section of the world, and arrive at a safe haven in two weeks. And WICKED has made sure to adjust the variables and stack the odds against them.
Thomas can only wonderdoes he hold the secret of freedom somewhere in his mind? Or will he forever be at the mercy of WICKED?

Hundreds of pages into this sequel to The Maze Runner, one of the teen subjects of a survival experiment on postapocalypse Earth wonders aloud, "hat this is really all about." Readers may be asking that, too. In The Maze Runner, the teens, their memories erased, searched for a way out of a deadly maze; their escape, led by Thomas, was short-lived. As volume two opens, the boys learn they are infected with the "Flare," a virus that has killed millions and produced a population of nearly insane, disease-ravaged "cranks." New orders from WICKED, a coalition of surviving governments, have the boys marching across a wasteland toward a promised cure. Though some facts are teased out, the narrative bogs down under the weight of unanswered questions. What is the purpose of torturing these kids? How is making them into killers ensuring the survival of the world? Why would government leaders name themselves WICKED? Hopefully answers are forthcoming in volume three. In any case, fans who are already hooked will gobble this down, particularly those who don't mind anemic female characters and a high body count. Ages 12–up. (Oct.)
