text: BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich., Jan. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Del Webb has expanded its "lifestyle test drive" nationwide – offering active adults real access to world-class amenities, social events and even the residents themselves. The new Explore Del Webb program offers people age 55+ the opportunity to take the legendary lifestyle for a spin at nearly 50 communities in 20 states. "Getting a real hands-on experience is very important in the decision-making process of today's Baby Boomers," said Deborah Wahl Meyer, senior vice president and chief marketing officer for parent company PulteGroup, Inc. With many Baby Boomers still working and/or planning to work at least part-time in retirement, Wahl Meyer said the program helps connect potential homebuyers with Del Webb residents who are making the transition to the next phase of their lives. Ms. Wahl Meyer said that the Explore Del Webb has proven to be a great education tool for consumers and that 25 to 45 percent of program participants eventually purchase a new Del Webb home. "A sales presentation is not enough for these savvy consumers. They really need to experience the lifestyle, which means providing opportunities to mingle with residents on their own terms, access to the amenities, and enjoy the many special events and activities." Every Explore Del Webb program offers unique features. At Sun City Carolina Lakes near Charlotte, NC, community residents Bob and Donna Meng greet visitors and consider the experience more like a bed and breakfast. "Visitors really feel as though they are a part of the community," Bob Meng says. "I can tell they value the fact that we are residents." Baby Boomers appreciate and trust insights from their peers, so one of the key components of Explore Del Webb is the opportunity for visitors to attend events where they can socialize casually with the neighbors.

Distinctive for its skin that turns from green to purplish-black when ripe, the Hass is the leading variety of California avocados with over 80% of the volume.
Ripe Characteristics:
Handling Information
Ripe and Ready:
The best way to tell if your California avocado is ready to eat is to gently squeeze the fruit in the palm of your hand. Ripe fruit will be firm, yet will yield to gently pressure. Ripened fruit can be refrigerated until but not more than a few days.
Ripe Readiness:
To ripen a California avocado, place the fruit in an ordinary paper bag and store at room temperature until ready to eat (usually two to five days). Including an apple in the bag accelerates the process even more.
Multiple Choices:
Seven Varieties of Avocado are grown in California. Hass (rhymes with "pass") makes up 90 percent of the volume.
Robust Returns:
A single California avocado tree can produce up to 400 avocados every year.
California avocados aren't a summer-only specialty. The fruit is available 12 months a year, thanks to the coastal California micro-climate.
In a small bowl, combine dressing, basil, garlic and red pepper flakes; set aside. In a large bowl, combine macaroni, tuna, tomato, avocado, red onion and olives. Add dressing and toss. Line four plates with lettuce leaves, spoon on salad. Serves four.
Per serving: 205 calories, 16g protein, 25g carbohydrates, 5g total fat, 3g dietary fiber, 7mg cholesterol, 308 mg sodium

However, the 'Caps aren't where they need to be just yet.
After taking two of three from a mediocre Dayton team, West Michigan dropped two of three against the Burlington Bees, who currently sit in last place in the Midwest League. That being said, while consistency still isn't quite there, the team's individual performances may be overshadowing the negatives.
Perhaps the biggest individual play of the week at the plate, maybe even the biggest play of the year for the 'Caps, was RF Alexis Espinoza's game winning walk off home run against the Peoria Chiefs on Sunday, helping West Michigan take two of three from the team.
RF Michael Rockett joined Espinoza in the power hitting category this week, and currently leads a pretty lackluster power hitting lineup with four home runs. The week also saw the first home run from Eastern Michigan University grad and Allen Park, MI, native, SS Jimmy Gulliver. It came in a 9-2 beat down of Burlington in the series finale.
On the mound, it's safe to say that RHP Trevor Feeney (6-3, 3.08) has emerged as the 'Caps workhorse for the season. He leads the team in many major statistical categories, with the exception of ERA, a stat that LHP Giovanny Soto (4-3, 1.99) continues to lead. Feeney is also at the top of the Midwest League in many statistical categories, and even leads the league in starts (12) and innings pitched (79.0). He is also second in the Midwest League in wins, with six on the year.
Along with Gulliver, many of the other newest members of the West Michigan Whitecaps organization are fairing decently. 2B Christopher Sedin is batting .286 in seven games this season, and already has a home run, something that has come at a premium for the Whitecaps this season, as previously mentioned. RHP Jared Wesson (1-0, 2.57) has done well in two starts this season, although his last start could be considered shaky, at best. RHP Zach Samuels (0-0, 3.24) has done fairly well in four relief outings this season, and has yet to give up a lead so far.
Perhaps the most exciting acquisition at the beginning of the season, RHP Jacob Turner (1-3, 4.01) is struggling to live up to the hype he was given. While the chances are starting to look more and more bleak that Turner will move up to Lakeland or Erie at any point during the season, he is showing the flashes of brilliance on the mound that had scouts raving about him back in February.
The Whitecaps are on the road today against Western division-leading Cedar Rapids, the first of a three game series. While the 'Caps currently sit in last place in the division, a good series here could catapult the team over Dayton and Bowling Green. West Michigan then has a three game series against the second best team in the Western division, Quad Cities, before returning home to take on the best team in the Midwest League, the Lake County Captains. Needless to say, the West Michigan Whitecaps have their work cut out for them.

Seperation anxiety, or more?
I have an 8-9 month GSD that has been at my home for about a month.
In the past I've had much younger pups and the crying/yelping at the garden gate, crate etc. usually tapers off in a week or two.
This dog however completely comes unhinged if I'm out of her sight. We play/train a few hours a day. She is in the house in the evenings with me and such but when I go into another room, or leave the yard she yelps like crazy for an hour or more.
Is this normal for a 9 month old dog that has only been with me for a month?
Maybe I need to attend to her differently due to the foster situation.
Any ideas are appreciated.
Just checking in again.
Has anyone had a dog yelp like this at the 9 month or older mark when you get out of sight?
I was going to try 10-15 minute time aways where I walk away and come back multiple times and see if changes anything but I'm not sure since I've always waited for the dog to calm down in the past.
This is a new experience for me, in the past leaving the dog to calm down and then engaging has always led to shorter crying, not longer durations of yelping.
Have you worked on crate training?
My puppy was the same when I first got her. She still freaks out if someone restrains her and I walk away, but she is now ok if I put her in her crate and leave.
I would try crate training first as well. BUT, I wouldn't leave her in it then walk away for 2 hours ... SOME dogs (if it really is separation anxiety) can get worse inside a crate and will freak out trying to get out ...
Look up HOW to crate train, and see if that option works ...
Good luck!

Separation anxiety, if not dealt with, can become much worse and can actually result in euthanasia.
also, if you choose to crate.... Welcome to Dogwise.com
No at first just do little baby steps! Definitely don't go out for hours and hours. Start small. Feed your dog in the crate, give her a special treat only in the crate etc.
Thanks for the information.
I need more to work on her crate situation. She won't go in it voluntarily but will walk in if I guide her by the collar and she will settle down in it after a few minutes. No yelping unless I leave the area.
Ive been feeding her in it while its unlocked but maybe increased familiarity with the crate will help reduce some of the issues of leaving her in the yard alone.

Limbaugh: "The Trayvon Martin Situation Caused Happiness Somewhere In The Civil Rights Community"
Blog ››› ››› MEDIA MATTERS STAFF
On his radio show today, Rush Limbaugh drew a parallel between environmentalists concerned about global warming and "the race industry," because "incidents which prove their allegations -- or lend credence -- make them happy." Limbaugh then said, "The Travyon Martin situation caused happiness somewhere in the civil rights community because it gave them a shot in the arm." Limbaugh said that it "launched them" and "allowed them them to get in gear and to start leveling the charges that they always love to make about the country."
Full transcript below the jump.
From the April 10 broadcast of Premiere Radio Networks' The Rush Limbaugh Show:
LIMBAUGH: To understand the left is to know that they never acknowledge ultimate defeat. Never happens.
Like global warming. You could establish daily, multiple times a day, the hoax this is. It's not gonna -- have they stopped? Have they stopped trying to implement everything that they were doing because of global warming, even though it's been established?
And by the way, how do they do that? How do they do that? It's a giant guilt trip. It's a giant -- they come at you, all these global warming people, come to you, "You have caused this massive destruction of our planet." But then they offer you redemption. Agree to higher taxes. Agree to limit your travels to wildlife. Agree to drive different cars. And you can redeem yourself. And you can win the approval of the state if you do the right thing to save the planet.
Global warming and the race industry have one thing in common, and that is incidents which prove their allegations -- or lend credence -- make them happy. The Trayvon Martin situation caused happiness somewhere in the civil rights community because it gave them a shot in the arm. It launched them. It allowed them to get in gear and to start leveling the charges that they always love to make about the country. When you have the hottest March, supposedly, on record, it makes the global warming people happy.
What is global warming? If you listen to these climate change -- it is the destruction of our climate. The destruction of the planet. They live in happiness whenever they think they have found evidence that what they're saying is right. You would think normal people wouldn't be happy about that. Normal people would not be happy when a racial incident happens. Normal people aren't, but leftist activists are happy.
And then they come along, and the way they corral everybody else is through condemnation. You're to blame. You are the reason -- it's your fault that there is racial strife in America. And they say that to the population in general. It's your fault that the polar bears don't have any place to live even though the polar bear population is at a record all-time high. It's your fault. There's condemnation, accusation, guilt. And this is how they get you to go along with whatever you must do, to correct what you have done, to bring about this destruction.

Encircled by 320 acres of woodland, field, and vineyards, Williamsburg Winery is just three miles from Colonial Williamsburg, yet it's a world apart. It's actually part of an idyllic European-style village complete with two restaurants, a wine bar, spa, library, walking trails, and an enchanting inn, the 28-room Wedmore Place. Arriving guests feel they've been transported to a quaint European village, and they readily feel at home.
Williamsburg Winery was established in 1985 by Patrick and Peggy Duffeler, and has grown to be Virginia's largest winery, with an annual production of nearly 60,000 cases. From the very first vintage in 1988, its wines have been enthusiastically received, and today they routinely receive international recognition. At the 2010 London International Wine Fair's Decanter World Wine Awards alone, five Williamsburg wines captured medals and accolades. This has been the goal of Winemaker Matthew Meyer since he came to Williamsburg from the Napa Valley.
Guests are eager to find out what all the fuss is about with a visit to the Old World-style tasting room. After tasting and discovering that the wines live up to their global reputation, they can tour the winery, visit the barrel cellar, and learn more about winemaking. When appetites stir, there's a choice of two compelling restaurants: Gabriel Archer Tavern, nestled among the vineyards; or Café Provençal, located within the sublime Wedmore Place hotel.
Those who stay overnight in one of the hotel's individually designed rooms or suites abandon all thoughts of the real world, and settle into a luxurious retreat complete with in-room fireplaces, antiques, European bedding, and fine linens. Public areas include a cozy, classic 19th century British-style library, and an outdoor swimming pool where food and Williamsburg's distinctive wines are served.
It's hard to believe that this destination is so close to day-to-day life—yet so wonderfully far. For savvy wine tourers, Williamsburg Winery provides a European home-away-from-home right in the heart of Virginia.

Probably.. hell they stopped importing Testor to my country 2 1/2 years ago!
if you use air brushes, you may be able to Home Depot, and have them mix one up for ya... Just a thought though.
My store near me (the only in town that even sells floquil) can never get any of the colors I need in stock. Its like teasing me they have a spot for the colors but never get them in. Or if they are getting them in they sell out before I get there.
go straight to the Testors site and you will have an unmatched supply The colors come to your door in a small amount of time.
But only if your in the Contential United States, otherwise you'll have to find someone else!
Not that I'm bitter or anything!
I was wondering if you dont have a airbrush gun and use spray paints, what paints do you use? for explain is Testors Panzer Green, Olive green in Spray paints?
Hey Soilman, send me the paint names that you need and I'll check here in St. Louis for ya!
Eagleskull there is a thread on these boards for what colors to use in spray paint form. Use the search tool. Just so you know you can also brush these colors on. I have brushed every color I have painted with good results.
I found a Train hobby store today and I found all most all of the colors. Just missing the most important colors though.
These colors seemed to be Floquil Train paints.
* Panzer Olive Green (Cheeks and dome) F505113
* Euro Dark green 'Unsure' back of helmet. 4729 (Model Master)
* Panzer dark yellow (Rangefinder ear) if you do not have aluminum ears you will need to mix a silver with this to tone it down. F505111
* RLM Green (Left ear) 'unsure' F505056
I found a slot for the Panzer olive green, but it was empty.
And man was this stuff expensive.
$3.99 a bottle.
I should have a lot left over. If I do I could let some one have it for a good deal.
But if anyone has a hit on these few colors let me know.
I have one more Hobby store to hit tomorrow.
I found the other paints at a Hobby store last night. They were worded in German. Like Panzer olive Grun and RLM Grun.
But I found them all so now the fun begins.

HIGH POINT, NC -- Microtronic US reports that its use of Microtronic Mifare terminals in micromarket kiosks has placed second in the "Coolest Mifare application in use" category of the International Mifare Awards 2014 competition.
MiFare is a contactless (or "proximity coupling") medium developed by Philips Electronics (Eindhoven, The Netherlands) in 1994; it has found widespread use around the world in everything from public transportation farecards to vending machine payment systems. Microtronic, based in Oensingen, Switzerland, has developed a popular series of terminals that accept Mifare media.
Steve Bryant, national sales manager for Microtronic US, explained that the company's adaptation of Microtronic Mifare terminals to micromarket kiosks represents a flexible, versatile and cost-effective solution for operators. The Microtronic terminals can accommodate Mifare stored-value market cards as well as payment options using barcoded media, payroll deduction methods and account-and-PIN transactions, allowing a system to be configured precisely to the location's needs.
"With 35 years' experience in Mifare technology for vending. it was an easy integration into micromarkets with our own software development team," Bryant observed. And the ready adaptability of Microtronic Mifare terminals to vending equipment makes it easy for operators to offer locations micromarket and vending service with a uniform cashless payment option for customers.
Microtronic US offers a variety of transaction stations, including the new Mini Kiosk and a complete line of cabinetry display units. The transaction stations can interface with a range of hot and cold cup beverage dispensing options, enabling customers to purchase a beverage at the checkout station. These include Cafection Enterprises' Avalon whole-bean, single-cup countertop coffee brewer and the Multi-max K-Cup vender, which allows the sale of premium hot beverages for the Keurig system. Cold drinks also can be sold by connecting the kiosk to a bag-in-box fountain dispenser actuated by B.L. Sizemore & Associates' Fountain BOB controller.
Information on Microtronic US micromarkets and vending payment systems may be had by calling Bryant at (800) 879-3586 or by visiting the company's website, www.microtronicmarket.com.
photo | FIRST LOOK: Steve Bryant (left), Microtronic US, shows off brand-new Microtronic Mini Kiosk to Brian Barker, DePaul University (Chicago), at the National Automatic Merchandising Association's OneShow. Designed for smaller accounts, the little micromarket transaction station is modular, allowing operators to configure it to accept a variety of payment media including cash and cards, and to add a receipt printer if desired. The Mini Kiosk joins Microtronic US's regular and "component group" terminals; the latter is built into a stylish cabinet equipped with product display shelves and designed for banking with additional shelves.

Your lap is never a suitable table. Whether you're working at a computer, crafting or eating a meal, you need a good table that's big and sturdy enough to support your activity. For people confined to a bed or wheelchair, or who simply spend many hours a day seated, their lap or a unstable TV stand are not acceptable options.
Reviewers have applauded the Multi-Position Tilt and Overbed Table for it's usefulness and store-ability when not in use. Among the table's many features, the flexibility in positioning seems to be most pleasing. Overall, the table's features include:
- A table mast that is foldable in three positions, from flat–able to be stored under a bed–to upright and extended within a person's reach.
- A pivot feature allowing the table top to be positioned closer to individuals in a bed, seated at an armchair, or in a wheelchair.
- Tilting angle so that the table top tilts with the angle of the mast, providing an absolutely flat surface regardless of the mast's angle.
- Four solid, 2″ casters, two of which are lock-able.
At its highest, the table stands 37″. It can lower to just 30″ high. The desk surface is large–24″ across–able to accommodate any laptop computer and accessories or provide optimal space for crafting or activities.
A few users commented on the size of the table's base, which is 26.5″ across, saying that it was slightly cumbersome and got in the way. However, the width of the base is what makes the table very stable and sturdy. And although the packaging indicates that no assembly is needed, there are a few parts to assemble in order to use the table.
Coming in at just under $105.00 on Amazon.com, users say there are few other tables on the market that work the same way, and none with the ability to fold flat for storage. When you already have a room crowded with people, additional medical equipment or just a small space, it's great to be able to fold the table flat and store it easily.

7 Ways Your Characters Can Screw up Their Decisions
Lifehack had a great post about how not to mess up your decisions. The writer in me instantly saw what a great guide it was to crafting characters with bad decision-making skills, which of course make for more interesting plots. Nobody likes a smarty pants.
As people, we want to make the right choice, so it's only natural that those are the choices that first come to us as we write. But doing the right thing doesn't always cause wonderful conflict (though when it does it's writing gold). Characters shouldn't act like people who've had three weeks to consider their options just because the author took that long to write the scene. A decision made in the heat of the moment isn't the same as one made with weeks to consider.
So here are some handy ways your character can make the wrong choice next time they're faced with an all-important decision:
1. Be impulsive
One of my favorites, as my protagonist, Nya, is always jumping in before she thinks. This is a helpful flaw for characters who need to learn patience, or who don't always consider how their actions affect others. Snap judgments, quick decisions, charging full-speed ahead without thinking beyond the now. If you need to get your protagonist in over her head fast, consider this mistake.
2. Make decisions under pressure
When you think about it, you should always force your characters to do this, because a ticking clock is a reliable way to raise stakes and increase tensions in a story. But as Lifehack says, pressure can come in subtle forms, and that can carry over into your novel. Small pressures build to big explosions, so if you need your characters to blow their tops, try looking for small ways to eat at them leading up to that explosion.
(More on adding small problems to your plot)
3. Over-analyze everything
If characters are so busy trying to figure out the right thing to do, they might totally miss the opportunity to act at all. Lost chances a character can regret later make wonderful seeds to plant early on in a story, and can cause huge emotional trauma during that Dark Moment of the Soul at the end of act two. Over analyzing can also work to sneak in possible dangers and outcomes, helping to raise tensions and keep things unpredictable since so many bad things might occur.
4. Assume you know it all
Perfect for the protagonist who needs to learn a valuable lesson about working with others. Let him be convinced he's always right, doesn't need advice from anyone else, and he has no problem stating that fact to anyone who will listen. The fall here when reality strikes will be devastating, and all the more satisfying.
(More on making your characters make tough choices)
5. Never consider all the options
An informed protagonist is a boring protagonist. Choices made without the benefit of a solid foundation of knowledge can lead a myriad of delightful screw ups. Maybe there's no time for research, or there's something he just doesn't want to think about (denial, much?). Missing key information can send a character into a mess of their own making.
6. Never ask advice
Who needs a long-winded story from some old geezer about how he did it when he was younger? Times change, and what worked then surely won't work now. This is a flaw for the protagonist who doesn't respect tradition or the consul of others. The more people you piss off, the fewer there will be when you need them at the climax.
(More on crafting choices that matter)
7. Don't make alternative plans
Who needs Plan B? An overconfident protagonist might never see the need for backup plans, because everything is going to go just like she expects. So when things start falling to pieces, she's very likely incapable of wise action to correct her mistake. Which causes events to snowball, getting her into more and more delicious trouble.
(More on making the most of the worst than can happen)
Making smart choices is vital in the real world, but making conflict-creating bad choices is a must for the fictional world. While you don't want your characters to be stupid (unless it's by design), mistakes leads to growth, and a good character grows by the end of the tale. Try adding a few bad decision-making skills to your characters and enjoy the fun.
How often do your characters make bad decisions?
21 comments:
Thanks for that article. It's inspiring to read all those possible flaws I can torture my characters with later ;)ReplyDelete
I think I might have flaw number 8: Pride. I have one character who knows what the right choice would be (or at least the simplest way to solve a problem) but he ist too proud to do it and so sticks to the wrong decisions knowingly that it will cost him a lot. He created a certain image of himself and that right choice means he would have to change (become more humble for example).It will bring him into trouble until he finds himself confronted with a choice that is important enough for him to let go of his pride.
I love this article because it sounds like my decision-making process at its best. LOL Thanks Janice. This helps me today.ReplyDelete
Fantastic post! I typically don't write characters who are "stupid," but we all make stupid decisions sometimes. These tips are the perfect way to make characters do the same thing without seeming out of character or too convenient. :)ReplyDelete
Very helpful post. It's got my brain working because one of my character definitely needs more conflict. She's a bit yawn inspiring at the moment. Thanks.ReplyDelete
Great post Janice. I've used the impulsive kid before as a way to make mistakes. Now I'm trying the person who thinks she can handle it all. You're right. Our characters do need to make bad decisions. Like us, unfortunately, but true.ReplyDelete
Frauke, oo that's a great one.ReplyDelete
Cat, lol. Glad to help :)
Jami, we totally do. We could probably just think back to the dumb things we've done and flesh out the list.
Jennifer, hope it helps! I've found crafting an inner conflict that opposes the external problem a great way to add conflict as well.
Natalie, I like that. I'm kinda doing the same thing now that I think about it. Nya was all impulse, but my new protag is all about her training and what she can do. Fun to play the other side, isn't it?
Another "Other Side" post I'm bookmarking to come back to. Thanks, Janice.ReplyDelete
Great way of looking at things. I have the urge now to run off and just mess with my characters... Not sure what that says about me!ReplyDelete
A character that can respond to every situation with the perfect answer or decision just doesn't work for readers. Where's the humanity in perfection? Where's the flaw? Some missed or not-so-wise decisions really do add conflict, moments of tension and provide something for the character to overcome or be humbled by.ReplyDelete
Excellent list! Mine are always over-analyzing... just like their writer, lol! Love all the others, though. New ways for my characters to make bad choices. I'll be referring back to this one. Thanks!ReplyDelete
LD, most welcome!ReplyDelete
Raewyn, that you're a writer :) I'm filled with delight every time I think up something horrible to do to mine.
Angela, absolutely. Well said.
DB, hehe, they do tend to pick up our habits, don't they?
Excellent stuff! :DReplyDelete
My protagonist is impulsive and unwillingly inconsiderate, and she thinks she's always right and everyone else is just trying to slow her down. Even after she "wakes to reality" she still believes she must handle it all by herself, until help is forced unto her and she must acknowledge she'd be screwed without others.
Actually, a character who makes those well thought out rational decisions can cause conflict also. Someone who always makes rational, carefully analyzed decisions can conflict with another character. Consider Spock and Capt. Kurk. Spock always makes logical decisions, while Capt. Kurk's decisions were more emotion driven. This type of interplay leads to a fascinating story.ReplyDelete
I like to use a right decision leading to unexpected negative consequences also. Mixing in both types of decisions, right and wrong, keep the tension up as long as the motivations are there.
I know this is an old post, but I can't help jumping in. :) My character is bull-headedly loyal. She ignores things that suggests those close to her are `gasp' in the wrong.ReplyDelete
She's teamed up with someone who is incredibly impulsing. So far he hasn't gotten her killed, but they've had a few near misses.
Veronica, sounds like my kinda of character! All the delightful things you can do to someone like that :)ReplyDelete
Lynn, I agree. The more you mix it up the better the story. I LOVE a right choice leading to trouble. It's usually so unexpected. Thanks!
Chicory, not too old, I think it was Friday's. Ooo what a great pairing. Two great flaws that work great (for the author) together.
Okay, so it's already been a week since you posted this. But I keep re-reading it and thought I'd finally jump in and tell you I love how you make writing sound so simple. Thanks, Janice! :-)ReplyDelete
Aw, thanks Tracy! That means a lot to me :) That's what the whole blog is about, so it's good to hear it's working.ReplyDelete
These are excellent suggestions! I probably have too brainy or wise of characters, who usually make the best decisions under any given circumstances. Great reminder that under stress (or not having enough info, etc) that's not necessarily the case!ReplyDelete
Carol, people make mistakes, even smart people. Maybe your characters over think things? That could be fun to play with. That old "too smart for your own good" adage.ReplyDelete
Your Fiction University applies well to comic book writing too! Thank you for this insightful article. The mistakes that heroes make means they're human, and how they overcome the strife those mistakes cause makes them super.ReplyDeleteReplies
Good storytelling is good storytelling no matter what the medium. :) And comic books have some of the best, flawed characters out there.Delete

"Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life." Proverbs 13:12
When your hope is threadbare, tattered and worn and you want to chalk it up as false; stuff it in your pocket during the day and carry it wherever you go. Sleep with it under your pillow at night until your strength is renewed. Whatever you do, don't let it go of it.

If you haven't heard of Visual Website Optimizer then I suggest you go check them out now. Do it. Go! Check them out, then come back and read the rest of this post.
Visual Website Optimizer (VWO), currently in beta, is poised to be a real player in the optimization space. Their elegant design and drop-dead simple approach to designing, launching, and monitoring tests is just sexy, I don't know how else to describe it.
I have been part of the beta team testing VWO for over a month now and, as you can probably tell, I am impressed. So impressed, that I wanted to pull my VWO data into Omniture SiteCatalyst and Omniture Discover to extend the value of the product even further.
The integration between VWO and Omniture was super simple.
Step 1: If you haven't already done so, designate one of your Custom Conversion variables as your optimization tracking variable.
Step 2: Copy the following code snippte and paste it into the doPlugins section of your s_code.js file.
var _combination = _vis_opt_readCookie('_vis_opt_exp_'+_vis_opt_experiment_id+'_combi'); if(typeof(_vis_opt_comb_name[_combination]) != "undefined"){ s.eVar1= _vis_opt_experiment_id + ':' + _vis_opt_comb_name[_combination] } }
Step 3: That's it!!!
NOTE: Using a similar approach, you can very easily integrate VWO with Google Analytics using 'pageTracker._setCustomVar'.
I'm running an A|B test on the 'Contact Jason' section of my blog.
I'm testing if it's best to show a photo of me or to show an icon of a telephone. When the integration code executes, my conversion variable is populated with the following:
s.eVar1="Contact Icon:Photo"
'Contact Icon' is the site section that I'm testing and 'Photo' is the treatment version. For reference, you can see these values inside the details section of your test within VWO.
Although Visual Website Optimizer is still in it's infancy, I see good things in their future. They really seem to value customer engagement and their product is sexy as hell.
P.S. I have a few beta invites to VWO, if you are interested, email me via my contact form.

The Great Jägerschnitzel Debate
How to make proper Jägerschnitzel, or "hunter's cutlet" in German, is the subject of much debate, or perhaps simply much variation. We read up on the controversy–breaded or unbreaded? pork or veal?–and, although these are matters of personal taste as much as authenticity, we decided to weigh in. The following is a traditional recipe for Jägerschnitzel, a popular German entree with a rich, creamy mushroom sauce.
4 ½-inch slices of pork loin
Salt and black pepper, to taste
5 tablespoons olive oil or bacon fat
½ yellow onion, chopped
1 lb. mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons flour
¼ cup red wine or sherry
1 cup beef stock, warmed
2-4 tablespoons heavy cream
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
1. Pound the pork loin between 2 pieces of plastic wrap, to about a ¼-inch thickness. Season both sides of the meat with salt and pepper, and then set aside.
2. In a large skillet, saute the mushrooms and onions in 2 tablespoons oil or bacon fat. Once cooked, remove them from the pan and place in a small bowl.
3. Add remaining oil or bacon fat to the skillet, then sear the pork on both sides until browned and cooked through. Remove the meat to a plate, and keep warm.
4. Stir flour into the remaining fat in the pan to make a roux, cooking the mixture until it reaches a light brown color, about 3 minutes. Add the wine or sherry, and then add the warm stock. Let the gravy simmer until it reaches desired consistency, then pour in the cream. Add the mushrooms and onions back to the sauce. Season with black pepper to taste.
5. Pour the sauce over the cutlets and serve with parsley to garnish. Enjoy!

The Tales of Beedle the Bard, a Wizarding classic, first came to Muggle readers' attention in the book known as Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Now, thanks to Hermione Granger's new translation from the ancient runes, we present this stunning edition with an introduction, notes, and illustrations by J. K. Rowling, and extensive commentary by Albus Dumbledore. Never before have Muggles been privy to these richly imaginative tales: "The Wizard and the Hopping Pot," "The Fountain of Fair Fortune," "The Warlock's Hairy Heart," "Babbitty Rabbitty and Her Cackling Stump," and of course, "The Tale of the Three Brothers." But not only are they the equal of fairy tales we now know and love, reading them gives new insight into the world of Harry Potter.
The stories are accompanied by delightful pen-and-ink illustrations by Ms. Rowling herself, featuring a still-life frontispiece for each one. Professor Dumbledore's commentary--apparently written some eighteen months before his death--reveals not just his vast knowledge of Wizarding lore, but also more of his personal qualities: his sense of humor, his courage, his pride in his abilities, and his hard-won wisdom. Names familiar from the Harry Potter novels sprinkle the pages, including Aberforth Dumbledore, Lucius Malfoy and his forebears, and Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington (or "Nearly Headless Nick"), as well as other professors at Hogwarts and the past owners of the Elder Wand. Dumbledore tells us of incidents unique to the Wizarding world, like hilariously troubled theatrical productions at Hogwarts or the dangers of having a "hairy heart." But he also reveals aspects of the Wizarding world that his Muggle readers might find all too familiar, like censorship, intolerance, and questions about the deepest mysteries in life.
Altogether, this is an essential addition to our store of knowledge about the world and the magic that J. K. Rowling has created, and a book every true Harry Potter fan will want to have for their shelves.
This purchase also represents another very important form of giving: From every sale of this book, Scholastic will give its net proceeds to the CHILDREN'S HIGH LEVEL GROUP, a charity cofounded in 2005 by J.K. Rowling and Baroness Nicholson of Winterbourne, MEP. CHLG campaigns to protect and promote children's rights and make life better for vulnerable young people. www.chlg.org

banana bread hummus ♥ recipe ♥
Hello my loves and happy weekend!
♥ ♥ ♥
I'm sure I am not the only one who is super excited for the week to be over. I feel like this week kind of dragged on. Usually my weeks drag on or they fly by. Never a happy medium. But such is life right?
♥ ♥ ♥
Well I have been promising this for a very long time and finally got my butt in gear!
I think we all know I am crazy addicted to sweet.
I mean my consumption of jelly is ridiculous. And fruit has to be my most favorite thing in the world. Any fruit. I'm not picky.
Ok I'm not a huge honeydew fan, but any other melon you can throw my way!
So when I discovered sweet dessert hummus'? Um. Jackpot. I was in love.
And since I eat so many banana's I could turn into one when I saw a recipe for banana bread hummus. Cha-Ching. It was quickly made. Consumed. Made again.
Since I've started making it though, I think I've definitely simplified it and catered it to my own tastes, to where it's not really the original recipe I made.
But I will say I love experimenting with it.
Remember when I made Chocolate Banana Bread Hummus? Oh my that was amazing.
But I thought I would share with you my staple go to recipe for when I make it. It can easily be tweaked to your liking, but here is what I do.
♥ ♥ ♥
Banana Bread Hummus
1 15oz can chickpeas (drained and rinsed)
1 medium – large size ripe banana
1 tbsp vanilla
1/2 tsp almond extract (key ingredient if you ask me)
approx 1/2 tbsp cinnamon (more or less to your taste)
approx 1/2 tbsp raw agave (or maple syrup or sweetener of your choice)
♥ ♥ ♥
Pour chickpeas into food processor.
Add banana.
Sprinkle cinnamon.
Add vanilla and almond extract.
Little drizzle drizzle of agave (or your sweetener of choice)
Blend until hummus reaches your desired consistency.
(I like mine really creamy)
And you're done!
♥ ♥ ♥
Bowl it. Dip your finger in it. Spoon it. Put it on a cracker. Demolish it.
Then repeat.
♥ ♥ ♥
This stuff does not last long in my house. I love it.
Maybe too much.
But then again, I am turning yellow and starting to peel.
(wow lame attempt at a joke)
Just a hint. This goes great on english muffins with no surprise. Jelly.
Trader Joes Fig Butter (♥) and Chobani greek yogurt on one half. Blueberry jam and banana bread hummus on the other.
Sweet and delicious.
I hope you all enjoy it!
(Click here for original recipe)
♥ ♥ ♥
Have you ever had a dessert hummus?
What is your favorite kind of hummus? Link me some recipes!

Best Of :: Arts & Entertainment
Director Bruce R. Coleman likes to say he's been around Dallas theater so long there are 12 companies on his résumé that don't even exist anymore. That includes New Theatre Company, which he ran for seven seasons. These days Coleman is in demand from almost every theater in Dallas and Fort Worth. He's recently put up shows at Theatre Three (House and Garden), Uptown (Bent) and ICT (Dracula). His specialties: comedies and musicals. And the bonus: He's also a whiz at designing sets and costumes. Coleman's a big fan of the local talent he gets to put through their paces in plays. "The not-so-famous folks I work with are tons more talented than most of those big names you see in New York or L.A. I'll take [Dallas actors] Regan Adair and Arianna Movassagh over Nicolas Cage and Julia Roberts any day." His enthusiasm for theater is infectious. "It is a visceral and communal experience that electrifies for the sheer glory of sharing it with our fellow beings," says Coleman. "People should go to the theater because it reminds us how to be human."
Admittedly, we were a touch skeptical about the Deep Ellum Film Festival's transition from The Little Indie Fest That Could into The Big-Money Target All-Star Throwdown Jamboree scattered hither and yon. But, just two years in, the thing's a mighty beast—and mighty impressive, as the likes of Lauren Bacall, Charlize Theron, David Lynch and some dude named De Niro have piled into Dallas for a week's worth of screenings and highfalutin wingdings the likes of which most Dallasites never get to see unless their Dallas lives in Highland Park. But Michael Cain's fest makes much of Dallas look shiny and special: The West Village is hoppin', thanks to Magnolia screenings; Mockingbird Station's cram-packed, what with those Angelika screens running hot; NorthPark's packed, in no small part thanks to the red carpet upon which the most famous feet trod day and night; and all of Victory Park's a go-go, courtesy the host hotel (the W, natch). Really, for one week every spring, even we think Dallas is the most awesome city in the history of parking lots.
Denton artist and musician Nevada Hill made quite the mark on North Texas this year, contributing stellar cover art for releases by Record Hop, Dust Congress and Stumptone, the latter a vinyl-only release featuring two cardboard panels screen-printed with an imposing image of reverberating speakers. And while Hill's work for Record Hop is admittedly on a much smaller scale (thanks, CD format), it's hard to deny the appeal of the cover art, a quirky drawing of what appears to be a mangy lion crapping the band's name. You can spot the Photoshop a mile away on most local record covers these days. With Hill's DIY treasures, however, all you spot is blood, sweat and artistry.
Considering the fact that we don't really like The Smiths (blame our college roommates), we weren't really sure about "Phil Collins: the world won't listen," the three-screen video installation presented earlier this year by the Dallas Museum of Art. But damn, if it wasn't the most entertaining thing we've ever seen in a museum, with the 1987 Smiths compilation, The World Won't Listen, repeating on a loop as fans from Colombia, Turkey and Indonesia sang along karaoke-style on each of the screens. We couldn't begin to pick a favorite image, though the chick in the wrestling mask and the unfortunate looking, teary-eyed Asian man certainly burned themselves into our psyche. We liked it all so much, in fact, that we went right out and got a pompadour.
For 23 years, Barry Whistler has brought seriously talented Texas artists to his Dallas gallery walls. And without fail, his exhibitions get the conversations going. From impressions and interpretations to artistic method, Whistler's gallery openings are abuzz with "I wonder..." and "That's so...wow." And that's what makes a gallery successful—when people actually talk about the art. The list of BWG's artists is impressive: Linnea Glatt, John Pomara, Allison V. Smith, Robert Wilhite (who presented audiences this year with one heavily discussed exhibition, The Bomb, featuring a skeletal, scaled-to-size sculpture of the Fat Man Bomb) and others. Plus, the gallery provides art lovers with a lively blog (barrywhistlergallery.blogspot.com) to catch the behind-the-scenes new and upcoming events in the gallery, which readers then discuss via the comments section. See what we mean about creating art dialogue?
When a musical needs a voice that can hit the back row, go through the back wall, into the parking lot and out to the stratosphere, the director calls for Megan Kelly Bates. The bouncy redhead sings, tap-dances and gets laughs, winning hearts and testing eardrums most recently as a yappy pup with a lot of high notes in Theatre Three's A Dog's Life. You've seen Bates, 28, in The Great American Trailer Park Musical and Urinetown at WaterTower, plus shows at Casa Manana, Contemporary Theatre and other stages all over North Texas. And where'd she come by those pipes? "When I was 5 and about to audition for my first show, The King and I, my mom put me in the living room, and we practiced my song. Then she had me sing in the hallway while she stayed in the living room and yelled, 'I can't hear you!' From there a belter was born!"

About MeHello Model Mayhemers, just a little about me, I got my start in California, Oakland to be exact at Laney College, where I studied Commercial Photography back in the early '70s and Photography is the one passion I have not been able to take off. Its good to be able to showcase our work on this medium, I get good ideas from other photographers and models and I want to show what talent I have through some nice models I am able to find. I still do TFP and TF/CD, but I, like most of you, would like to get paid for my work. I have projects in mind that I would like to try, and I am not limiting myself to certain sizes, I find it challenging to shoot plus size models who are comfortable and confident within themselves and is not afraid of the camera. I look for persons who don't mind stepping out of the box. I like Fashion, Portraiture, Figure, and Parody, plus any other ideas you or I may conjure up, If interested, Hollah at me...

The CyanogenMod team has unveiled a new camera app of their own called Focal, which forms part one of the Nemesis project, an attempt to improve on previously lacking features of the most popular custom ROM for Android.
Only a few days back the CyanogenMod team teased something called Nemesis without giving too many details, which got people speculating on what the team behind the most popular custom ROM for Android was cooking, with some even going so far as thinking it could be a CyanogenMod smartphone. Well, today the first stage of the Nemesis project has finally been unveiled – meet Focal, a brand new camera app that will replace the existing application in upcoming CM releases.
Focal is an attempt to bring a feature-rich camera app to stock Android. Once you fire it up, you're greeted with a minimal UI with only a shutter button visible, which you'll be able to keep pressed to take shots in quick succession, even on older devices without fast shutter cameras. Manually touching and swiping on a part of the screen will enable manual focus selection.
Swiping up on the shutter button will let you choose from a number of shooting modes, including normal photo, video, panorama, front facing cam, and also PicSphere, which is CM's answer to Google's Nexus-only Photo Sphere feature. Swiping from the left of the display opens a settings menu, which is where you'll find the plethora of image options and tweaks CM has coded into the new app.
There's an enhanced software HDR mode, higher resolution panorama, the option to change ISO settings, color effects, exposure, set a timer and more in this sidebar, and pressing either option will add a widget to the screen. Several widgets can be on-screen at the same time, so you don't have to go digging into the menus to adjust various settings, making it far more convenient than it currently is on CM or custom manufacturer camera apps. Developers building CM for a particular device will be able to configure the settings presented in the menu, with the option to remove or add new features according to the hardware they're working on.
With Nemesis, CyanogenMod is looking to improve on features that have been lacking in the past, and since the stock Android camera app has pretty much been stagnant compared to how far manufacturers have taken their own implementations, it isn't surprising that its re-imagining forms phase one of this ambitious project. Focal is still under testing, but if everything goes according to plan, we could be seeing it in CM builds as early as next week, and I can't wait to get my hands on it to try it out.
What's next in Nemesis? Well, we'll just have to wait and see where CyanogenMod takes it, but in the meantime, be sure to take a peep at the source links to get a complete rundown on Focal and watch the intro video below.
