Marketing trends change with the industry on a semi-regular basis. Depending on what's technologically new or improved, marketing tactics adjust with those changes and affect the way businesses interact.
Harris Interactive, an information gathering group for surveys, polls and web marketing analysis applications, recently conducted an in-depth study that gave the following:
- 87% of online adults use social media
- 17% of adults ages 18-34 use social media 6-10 hours per week
- 22% use social media <1 hour per week>
With the landscape of social media quickly changing, the trends to watch in 2011 are an indication of the direction that it is headed.
The 4 major trends include:
1. Direct Marketing
Once considered a defunct mode of marketing, it is set to make a big comeback. Establishing and following up on leads the old-fashioned way but by using newer methods (email, social networking, etc.) is going to change the face of this familiar friend.
2. Tracking Social Metrics
Since businesses need to know if their methods are working, there will be more concentration on utilizing tools and analytical data to determine the success in these areas. Companies are becoming more concerned with how well their efforts are working getting quality results rather than simply performing an application for the sake of it.
3. Shifting Marketing Strategies
Businesses will begin focusing more on the social impact of their businesses. There will be more tactical to strategic marketing methods so as to concentrate more on measuring social media and marketing. With this will come a likely increase in developing customer care teams that focus solely on social networking tasks.
4. Video Marketing
The concept of video marketing will make its debut. Video marketing is believed to be a huge SEO marketing tactic, therefore platforms like YouTube, Flickr and other video or image social sites will get more attention as a marketing method.

Artist's description:
Different landscapes inspire my creations.
This sculpture, which I like to define as an art object, is an oil painting on wood. It is the result of an investigation process that looks forward to generating a stronger bond between my painting themes and the raw material from southern Chile. Nature connects landscape as a subject, and as a material.
Different types of wood are used to create these art objects, such as Rauli, Lingue, Cipres, Oregon, Alerce and Laurel.
This particular painting is made on Cipres wood, from Chile, Southamerica.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
Can a soldier in the US Army be held accountable for knowingly having sexual relations with a married woman that wishes for a divorce and hasn't made their plans known to the husband?
Yes. Adultery is a crime under the UCMJ. Such crimes are not always prosecuted, however, depending on what kind of impact the adultery has on the military service.
NOTE: The information above is intended as general legal information based on minimal information, and does not constitute legal advice. This information does not constitute communication with an attorney, nor does it create an attorney-client relationship or any of the privileges that relationship provides.
Yes. Also remember that because it it is a crime, a soldier has the the right to remain silent and seek legal counsel, Army Trial Defense Service or civilian legal counsel, under Article 31 of the UCMJ and should not make a statement or admit to anything without advice of an attorney.Ask a similar question
While adultery is listed as a criminal offense in the UCMJ, it is very rarely prosecuted in a court-martial. The few times I have seen it referred to a court, the adultery charge was a minor additional offense included with other offenses. Adultery is prosecuted under Article 134, UCMJ. Art. 134 offenses include an additional element - that the adultery must be service discrediting or prejudicial to good order and discipline. This additional element is why adultery is rarely prosecuted in court. The UCMJ lists many factors for commanders to consider when deciding what to do with an adultery case. The usual factor that is most likely to have an effect on whether the case is prosecuted is whether the adulterous act had a direct impact on the mission and/or unit.
The military does handle adultery in other ways, such as administrative actions (letters of reprimand) or Art. 15 non-judicial punishment.
Lastly, if a soldier's command learns of adultery, command will often issue a no-contact order to the soldier (to each person if both are in the service). A violation of the no-contact order is where the soldier would likely face disciplinary action.Ask a similar question

Fussy kids choose their own presents by their fifth birthday
Fussy kids are allowed to choose their own gifts when they're just aged five.
According to new research, children have scrapped traditional presents to opt for cash, vouchers and gift cards.
Six in 10 (61%) parents give in to their five-year-old's demands for money instead of picking their children's gifts themselves as a surprise.
Daniel Zelkind, CEO of Zeek, a marketplace for gift vouchers, said: "Vouchers and cash used to be seen as a lazy gift, but the freedom to buy what you want is now seen as the more thoughtful option. You no longer have to worry about picking the wrong gift voucher either - if it's not quite right they can easily sell it and buy one for their favourite store on Zeek."
Elsewhere, more than one quarter (28 percent) of parents are asked for gift cards or vouchers so they can pick their own presents.

GOLF; Stewart Captures Open as Simpson Falters Again
By JAIME DIAZ,
Published: June 18, 1991
CHASKA, Minn., June 17— Payne Stewart broke the pattern of a nip-and-tuck battle, and Scott Simpson's back as well, with a 20-foot birdie putt on the 16th hole today as he won an 18-hole playoff for the 91st United States Open.
Stewart shot a three-over-par 75 to Simpson's 77 on a windblown and extremely firm Hazeltine National Golf Club course. Stewart's score was the highest to win an 18-hole playoff for the national championship since Tommy Armour shot 76 to beat Harry Cooper's 79 at the 1927 Open at Oakmont.
As in the final round on Sunday, Stewart, 34 years old, was two shots behind Simpson, 35, going into the final three holes. He might have been farther back if his tee shot on the par-3 eighth hole hadn't bounced off a rock submerged in a water hazard and onto a greenside slope.
But on the 384-yard par-4 16th hole, Stewart hit an approach to 20 feet on the narrow peninsula green and holed the putt. Simpson, who had left his own 35-foot birdie putt 3 feet short, then missed his par putt to fall into a tie.
"I felt I had to shoot at the pin and make a birdie," Stewart said of his 8-iron approach from 154 yards to the 16th. "I had already written a 4 down on the scorecard for Scott. He never misses those."
Simpson's third three-putt of the day and Stewart's first birdie after 30 holes without one created the third two-shot swing of the playoff. On the next tee, after Stewart had hit the green on the 182-yard par-3, Simpson made a poor swing and hooked his ball into a water hazard. Although he recovered well for a bogey, Simpson, a Californian, went to the 452-yard par-4 18th trailing by one. The Sound of Triumph
Simpson still had a good chance to tie or even win when Stewart pushed a 1-iron tee shot into a fairway bunker 205 yards from the pin. But he, too, pushed his tee shot, a driver that ran through the same bunker before settling in deep rough.
Stewart put his approach 6-iron in the right fringe 50 feet from the pin. Simpson hit a good recovery with a 7-iron that rolled through the green, about 30 feet behind the pin. After Stewart hit a fine chip to within 4 feet of the hole, Simpson's ball came out of the rough fast, running 10 feet past the hole. When Simpson missed that putt, Stewart was able to tap his par putt in for the championship.
"The sound of that is unbelievable," Stewart said of the title, United States Open champion. "After seeing what happened yesterday, and then to see it happen again, I don't know what to say. I am fortunate to be the champion."
More than 30,000 noisy fans seemed to cheer equally for each player. The placid Simpson wore a white shirt with blue pants, while Stewart wore his customary knickers as part of a red, white and blue ensemble emblazoned with the insignia of the 1992 Super Bowl, which will be played nearby in Minneapolis. Stewart, who lives in Orlando, Fla., became the first player since Gene Sarazen in 1932 to win the Open wearing knickers.
Stewart is only the 16th man to win both the United States Open and the PGA Championship, which he took in 1989 when he birdied four of the last five holes to beat a fading Mike Reid by one shot. The Open victory is also a vindication for Stewart after his collapse in the 1986 Open, when he led by a shot with six holes to go but finished sixth, four shots behind Raymond Floyd.
Simpson, who has now finished first, sixth, sixth, 14th and second in the last five United States Opens, will look back on Hazeltine's last three holes and know they cost him the Open. He played them five over par in regulation play, including two over par with a two-shot lead on Sunday. And in the playoff, he bogeyed each hole.
Simpson will also remember that he led by two shots late in the third round, late in the fourth round and late in the playoff.
"It is disappointing to lose the U.S. Open two days in a row," Simpson said. "After the 15th hole, I thought I had a great chance to win. But the three-putt on 16 and the bad shot on 17 really did it in for me."
Simpson got off to a shaky start, bogeying the first two holes when he failed to recover from a bunker on the first and three-putted from 30 feet on the second. But he pulled even when he hit a 6-iron approach to two feet on the fifth while Stewart bogeyed.
Then on the seventh, Stewart drove into the rough and was forced to lay up in two shots. Simpson drove well and went for the green with a 3-iron, the ball stopping about 20 feet from the pin in rough. After Stewart missed from 12 feet, Simpson made a 4-footer for birdie to take the lead.
Stewart was fortunate on the 166-yard par-3 eighth hole, which is guarded by water along the right side of the green. Simpson's tee shot went over the green. Stewart's tee shot landed in the lake, but hit a submerged rock and kicked onto the bank in front of the green. Although he missed a 6-foot putt for a par, Stewart came away with a tremendous lift because he tied Simpson on a hole that could have been a disaster.
"That was really a lucky break," Simpson said with a smile. "That was really a good turning point."
Simpson lost his lead when he missed a 6-foot putt on the 10th hole. Then on the 204-yard par-3 13th, he three-putted from 50 feet for bogey to fall a shot back. Simpson Slips Ahead
But on the 14th, a 357-yard par-4, Stewart drove into the left rough and left his second shot short of the green. His pitch was wide and 20 feet long.
Simpson drove well and hit a good approach 25 feet past in the short rough against the collar. He hit a bold putt that went in hard for birdie. When Stewart bogeyed, Simpson was again ahead by one.
But Stewart again played his best at the end, and Simpson again faltered.
"It was the same song, second verse," Stewart said. "It was a grind all day. I didn't quit, and it showed me if I ever quit, I'm an idiot, because a lot of funny things can happen on the way to the clubhouse."

Summary of Papers
Discussion Questions
- Where does technological progress come from? Is this even the right question to ask?
- How should designers respond to reappropriation?
- What should we take from SCOT and mutual shaping? Are these the right models? Are other models still appropriate?
- Who holds the power in what circumstances? The producers? The users? Societal forces?
Kline & Pinch
- "If they had succeeded the car might have taken a very different form - it would have been a short distance city vehicle only"... Do we agree with this?
- Cars and DIY culture? What is the relationship?
- Is technological reappropriation (the urge to fiddle) inherently masculine?
- Do users' meanings make artifact definitions? How convincing is Kline and Pinch's theoretical framing of the process compared to Boczkowksi.
- The internet makes explicit what was formerly tacit (displays of banal nationalism, friend networks etc.) What impact is this having on society?
- In this case, the creators and users of the technology are one. How does this change things?
- Is the AML just a tool to facilitate extant banal nationalism or does it produce a new form of nationalism?
- How does "mutual shaping of technology" differ from the SCOT approach of Kline and Pinch?
- Is it important if the artifact (CDROM) gets made?
- What does Boczkowski mean by the distinctions of enable/constrain/trigger?
- How convincing is Boczkowski's connection between his empirical findings and his theoretical framing?
Neff & Stark
- Which of these predictions came right? Which were off base and why?
- Is Permenantly Beta like "horseless carriage" or "wireless networking" in that it implies a final state? Are we in an era of something else?
- What is it about the internet and Web 2.0 that causes the state of permenant beta?
- What has Web 2.0 done to permanently beta?
- Was the car culture in Kline a "user innovation community"?
[from clifford] a nagging question that emerges for me in the articles (and in STS in general), is how do market forces fit into the reciprocal systems developed by the first two authors? economic dynamics play a role in each of the above studies, but it seems to me that they play a mostly contextual role.
i'm wondering how to interpret this or whether it is even a relevant question. a couple possibilities:
- perhaps is suggests that the market is treated as what we refer to as "social structure"
- perhaps it's an epistemological distinction: to foreground market forces would be a move that privileges rational choice as a theoretical position
- disciplinary distinction: where are the disciplinary boundaries of STS? is it the case that economic theory is simply a different disciplinary lens, which does not overlap with STS kinds of questions?
in the third article neff/stark address the (new) economy directly, but it is still unclear to me how economics fits into the discussions of tech & society

A Muslim shoots up a bar full of gays, so liberals defend….. Muslims?
Yeah, I don't get it either. Shortly after Orlando, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) decided to make the attack all about them, because they argue the attack could incite "Islamophobia."
Do you ever hear the NRA make mass shooting all about them by complaining that it could cause negative tensions towards gun owners? Of course not.
But apparently Muslims are lower on the privilege hierarchy than gays, so the Orlando massacre has to be all about them.
Via Bare Naked Islam, CBS chose to report on a CAIR report on so-called Islamophobic individuals and organizations following the Orlando massacre.
A direct quote from the CBS "report": "One of the great misconceptions about Islam is that it promotes violence." I'm pretty sure these reporters forgot to actually read the Quran.

Market Wrap
Week Ending May 12, 2006
The stock market took a pretty good hit at the end of the week. We had mentioned that there was internal underlying deterioration and it came to the surface yesterday and today. The DOW was down 119.74 to 11,380.99.
The new highs vs. new lows ratio turned around 180 degrees with almost 200 new lows and only 35 new highs. This is a significant change. Decliners also led advancers by 4 to 1.
In addition, this occurred with rising volume, whereas the previous moves up were on lower volume. The NASDAQ was down 28 points on increasing volume of 2.28 billion shares.
If the overall market remains under selling pressure this will most likely spill over into the precious metal stocks as well, which is another potential risk to be aware of and to have a plan for - even if the plan is to just sit tight.
All things with the term commodity affixed to them have been on a tear of late putting in stellar bullish performances. Inevitably, there was a bit of a respite as most commodities closed down.
WTIC was down $1.40 at $73.28. On the daily chart, the histograms have turned negative. The weekly chart we show below still looks good, but the upper trend line appears to have turned the price action back - at least for now.
With the numerous volatile geo-political events unfolding, anything could happen. The price could soar, the price could collapse, or the price could just hang out. Welcome to the 21st Century New World Order.
As we have often repeated - watch the price direction of oil for a hint to the direction of gold and silver and other commodities as well. The weekly oil chart follows.
The price of oil is sitting on the balance point that can pivot either way - and it will. The direction of the next move may be quite significant. If we had to give a direction, we would say down - with the caveat that any escalation in the many geo-political events surrounding oil would obviously cause the price to rise significantly.
Just the possibility of such is placing a bid on the price of oil. Likewise, any reduction in tensions would take the support away and oil would fall.
The CRB as with most commodities was down at the end of the week; however, the weekly chart still looks good. We note that it recently approached its upper trend line and subsequently fell back.
Bond yields continue to rise, which is NOT what the Fed wants to see on the long end. The 10 - year note closed at 5.18% and the 30-year hit 5.29%. Rising interest rates puts pressure on the mortgage/real estate market.
The Fed is walking a thin line trying to caress the real estate market down ever so softly and gently. We wish them luck. It is not a job that I would want to have.
Note the second chart below of the long-term trend in yields. They are fast approaching critical levels - levels that go back 10 years. A break above the trend line does not bode well for the mortgage and real estate markets, and hence the economy.
If the above trend line gets broken through to the upside, then the outlook for interest rates is not good, as it will signal further increases ahead.
This is not what the Fed wants, neither is it what the real estate market wants, nor we presume is it what the average American wants. Nevertheless, we don't often get what we want. We remain fixated on this chart for further developments.
The U.S. Dollar
The dollar keeps doing what the dollar does best - deteriorate, debase, and lose value. This week was no different, as the dollar was down .24 to 83.83 and is getting very close to some serious support levels that best not be broken.
If they are breached there well may be a lot more other "things" that get broken besides, or perhaps they already are broken but such is not permitted to be said, however, we think the strain will be more than they can bare. They will be seen as they are: "broken".
Below is a chart comparing the performance of the US Dollar to Gold. Note they are almost mirror like images of one another in opposing directions. The resemblance is almost eerie. No, we stand corrected - it is eerie.
Gold is steadily marching up the cliff the dollar has fallen off. There will be respites along the way, however, a change in the trend would take some doing and is far far away. We will not put up a longer-term chart of the dollar, as enough carnage has been shown.
It is not a pretty chart. Furthermore, to be the chart of our currency is a national disgrace, perpetrated by those in high places who know better yet remain unfazed. How we have come to this is more than unbelievable. "Those whom the gods wish to destroy, they first drive mad."
Gold was down $9.60 to $711.50, while silver was down 0.73 cents to $14.31. The precious metal stocks got whacked pretty good: the HUI was down 18.61 to 368.60 and the XAU was down 6.68 to 159.41.
A more bullish chart would be hard to come by. The only caveats are the overbought readings of RSI approaching 90 and MACD well over 40. But that is what bull markets do best - they rise and stay at overbought levels. There is noticeable support at the 550-570 level.
The XAU closed at 159.41, which is 4 points above its February high. The gold stocks are still under performing the metal.
Since February, gold has gone from $575 to $715, which is a 24% increase. The XAU Index has hardly moved. The HUI has fared better - it is up approximately 9% since its February high.
There are those who now say that the relationship or ratio between the stocks and the physical is no longer valid. This may well be true. However, we would prefer not having to decide if the negative divergence is valid or not.
We would prefer that the stocks moved ahead with the metal. Nevertheless, the market is not here to accommodate us or what we want - which is exactly the reason we question the point and make the observation.
Lastly, we will point out that the ROC has turned downward and the histograms have just barely turned negative.
Silver has outperformed even gold since February and is up over 33%. Once again, however, many of the major silver stocks are flat and a few have even broken down (PAAS, CDE, SIL).
As with the gold stocks we would prefer to have the silver stocks at least rising with the price of silver - if not actually leading the pos. We note that ROC has turned down.
If nothing else, taken together, the under performance of both the gold and silver stocks may be hinting at the next major direction of the precious metals. Perhaps not.
Nevertheless, we prefer to be sitting with the metal as opposed to the stocks at this time. The stocks are also subject to overall market risk, which as seen at the beginning of the report is starting to become increasingly risky. Prudence dictates to be cautious and content with the profits that have been booked thus far.
We have saved our favorite chart for last: the London PM Fix for gold going back to 1975. The chart is a snapshot view of what gold has done in the last three decades.
The 1980 all time high of $875 is evident. Gold shortly thereafter made a lower high just above $700 - the price level we are presently at today.
Since gold broke above the $400 level, there have been a couple of intermediate term corrections. The last one was in May of last year (2005). It is healthy for all bull markets to correct - the corrections provide longer-term sustainability.
We have no idea from what price level gold is going to correct from - in regards to an intermediate term correction of any significance.
However, it is closer than further away in our opinion. We have sold almost all of our precious metal stocks into the February highs; we may sell the rest depending on how far the market runs from here.
We are not buyers of either precious metal stocks or the physical at these levels, and we prefer to be sitting in possession of the physical rather than the stocks.
Our physical holdings are not for sale. The reason we accumulate physical gold and silver is as a store of wealth - why would we want to exchange it for paper fiat debt-money that continually loses purchasing power and value.
Our game plan remains the same: buy the stocks on weakness during intermediate term corrections, and sell into strength during intermediate highs.
We then take the profits from the stocks and reinvestment them in the physical metal during the next intermediate term correction.
We are thus paying more and more for our physical position, however, it is more than offset by the increased profits in the stocks.
As Dennis Gartman's friend was fond of saying: "when they're yellin we're sellin, and when they're cryin we're buyin." Sounds good to us - and so it is.
We are very fond of the following words of wisdom - for several self-evident reasons:
"Gold would have value if for no other reason than that
it enables a citizen to fashion his financial escape from the state."
[William F. Rickenbacker]

It has been widely accepted that standard low-level computational approaches to motion processing cannot extract texture-defined motion without applying some pre-processing nonlinearity. This has motivated accounts of motion perception in which luminance- and texture-defined motion are processed by separate mechanisms. Here, we introduce a novel method of image description where motion sequences may be described in terms of their local spatial and temporal gradients. This allows us to assess the local velocity information available to standard low-level motion mechanisms. Our analysis of several texture - motion stimuli shows that the information indicating correct texture - motion velocity and/or direction is present in the raw luminance measures. This raises the possibility that luminance - motion and texture - motion may be processed by the same cortical mechanisms. Our analysis offers a way of looking at texture - motion processing that is, to our knowledge, new and original.

About: Eastbourne District General Hospital Eastbourne District General Hospital Eastbourne BN21 2UD
Posted by Paul Stringer
I was initially refered to Eastbourne DGH with chest pains by my GP. I had a brief stress-test on a treadmill. Within a couple of weeks I had an angiogram and a couple of weeks after that 4 stents were fitted to my coronary arteries. I now feel better than I have felt for years! The whole process starting at Old School surgery in Seaford to being discharged from Eastbourne DGH was efficient, caring and very effective. Everything about my experience flies in the face of the nonsense one reads in the press about our 'failing NHS'. Nothing could have been done better, the staff at all levels were lovely and made me feel safe and cared for when actually I was quite concerned about everything. Even the food was great. I can't say more - just a fantastic experience and a special thanks to my nurses and the irrepresible Consultant and his team.

World of Warcraft. Without WoW, a large percentage of MMO players would not be enjoying their current game today, even if they haven't stuck by WoW this whole time.
So using the fact that so many people know WoW, we're continuing our WoW Player's Guide series with this one for Fallen Earth. I'm just going to get this out of the way right now: Fallen Earth is nothing like World of Warcraft. There. That's done, so now we can move on. However, the purpose of this guide is not to grade comparable features, but to show the average WoW player what they may seek in a game like Fallen Earth. That transition can be quite a scary leap, so we're here to offer a helping hand. Follow along after the jump for our WoW Player's guide to Fallen Earth, and hopefully you may find something that interests you enough to try out this brand new post-apocalyptic MMO.

Enthusing about Casablanca.
Once upon a time, entirely by accident and when they were discussing something completely different (like Father Ted), Bookfoxes Kirsty and Moira discovered that they had a shared love of the 1942 film classic, Casablanca. After chatting away for several minutes, it occurred to them that it would make a jolly good subject for a VL piece. So, a couple of days ago, they sat down and made a proper job of it … revealing, in the process, rather more about themselves and their several strange passions than they probably intended.
We join them as they settle down for a good natter, with As Time Goes By playing softly, somewhere in the background …
Kirsty Jane McCluskey (feeling rather intimidated by the scale of the thing): How shall we start?
Moira Briggs: Why don't we start with how less is more? The first—and really major—thing that struck me about Casablanca

New tracks from Tkay Maidza, Jamie Lidell, !!! and more in this week's musical round-up
Lianne La Havas: Unstoppable
Ahead of her forthcoming album release Blood, soulful crooner Lianne La Havas stripped down her new track "Unstoppable" for The Daily Beast. The result teeters between haunting and epic—all the while showcasing the magnificence of her voice, lyricism and guitar playing. It's pretty—and a pretty unstoppable demonstration of her artistry.
Tkay Maidza: M.O.B.
Last year, we fell for the Australian rapper, singer and producer Tkay Maidza—courtesy of her track "U-Huh." Now the 19-year-old has returned with "M.O.B." (aka Money Over Bitches) and a sweet animated music video made in collaboration with Adult Swim. Featuring her now-trademark meticulous (yet seemingly effortless) lyrics with EDM flourishes, "M.O.B." is a letter in song form to her future self: work hard and don't give up.
Chk Chk Chk (!!!): Sick Ass Moon
One of two new tracks revealed on !!!'s album teaser, "Sick Ass Moon" delivers everything we've come to love about the densely-layered dance punks. There's rhythm, soul and synths all draped in alluring vocals. It sounds good, feels good and if it's any indicator, the album As If, due out 16 October, will surely please.
Angel Haze: Impossible
Following heartbreaking and emotional tracks from her upcoming EP In The Winter Of Wet Years, Angel Haze releases "Impossible" this week. From self-empowerment to politics, the fiery track features a clattering beat reminiscent of a machine gun and Angel Haze's familiar sharp and fast vocals.
Jamie Lidell: Pink Light
The ever-charming Jamie Lidell unveils "Pink Light"—a soulful and synth-heavy stand-alone track. While Lidell hasn't announced a follow-up record to his self-titled LP from 2013, we can only hope this appears on an album full of equally lush and dreamy songs from the talented British artist.
ListenUp is a Cool Hunting series published every Sunday that rounds up the music we tweeted throughout the week, also found in Listen. Hear the year so far via Cool Hunting Spotify.

Eugenio Montale (1896 - 1981) was an Itilian poet, writer, editor and translator, and recipient of the 1975 Nobel Prize in Literature.
Preview Melinda Camber Porter in Conversation withe Eugenio Montale here
With this publication, Melinda Camber Porter In Conversation with Eugenio Montale, we have an opportunity to listen to the strong voice of Eugenio Montale (1975 recipient of the Nobel Prize in Literature) discussing poetry and its role in society.
"Nowadays, it is becoming harder to distinguish between artistic and commercial life. The role of the artist has been reduced to his success or failure in commercial terms… these mass-produced voices are not those which will tell us whether we are heading for disaster and, if so, how to prevent it," explains Eugenio Montale when speaking to Melinda Camber Porter. This volume includes Eugenio Montale's 1975 Nobel Prize Lecture in both English and Italian.

A decent machine but look at the alternatives from Vision Fitness if you liike this machine.
The AT1501 is the value priced Ascent Trainer from Johnson. We would look at the version made under the Vision Fitness brand name if you want to buy this machine. You get a heck of a lot longer warranty for not much more money.

1940 FORD DELUXE CUSTOM 2 DOOR COUPE - Side Profile - 137536 ...Is the caption of the picture.
Here's a front view... *NM* *PIC*
Darn......I don't like those headlights. *NM*
I agree with Dave, if you looked up "Smoove" in Webster's, should be this pic! LOL! *NM*
Need more coffee? Smoove? *NM*
Probably not, "smooth and ready to "move"?? combined in one new word? *NM*

A blog about fashion and whatever, in my style. Because short, chubby people who can't afford couture wear clothes, too.

Colorless in Seattle
Jen-in-a-cube. I assembled these earrings and this necklace a while back from some shells I got from Jo-Ann Fabrics. Yes, they are heavy.
What else is on my mind?
• I like blog challenges
• I don't like taking daily pictures of myself
• If I had a camera with a timer and a tripod, I might be better about it
• I'm a comedienne, I wouldn't take the time to set up everything in between dropping off my boys at school and rushing to catch the bus for work
• My school drop off-to-bus time range is about :08
• I wish I could work from home
• I don't like homework
Linking up with A Taste of T and Jewelscapes.

Monday Match Up II: My Want (But Don't Need) List
My Want (But Don't Need) List
• Share a picture of my son Desi dressed as a mime for our congregation's talent show over the weekend--My hubby and I decided when I first started this blog that I would not feature pictures of our boys. I do, however, share their names. Some bloggers do the opposite and share pictures, but use pseudonyms or just an initial. Some share pictures and names. To each his/her own. I have pictures that I've blurred, so I may post them sometime during the week.
• Yellow shoes--I kind of did a flats overload in the fall, so I think I'd like a pair of yellow heels or wedges. Hanna with Banhannas wore a pair for Petite Fashion Challenge #6.
• O•P•I Black Shatter nail polish--I first saw Katie from Fashion's Maven wear this, then saw Sandra from Sealverland with it. I don't usually wear nail polish on my fingernails, but I'd be willing to give it a whirl. Or, I can wear it on my little piggies.
• A free life-time supply of lattés or other foofy coffee drinks I desire from any and all coffee shops I visit--'Nough said.
Tis I for now.

Petite Fashion Super Stripe Challenger Person
Petite Fashion Challenge #6 is hosted by the lovely Jess of Stylepint. The challenge: Dress up your basics. In short (no pun intended), wear a tee and a pair of jeans and dress it all up. My abbreviated description is partly due to laziness and partly a ruse to have you press the pretty PFC button. (But make sure you come back here!)
|I thought I'd spare you the pics with the
jacket unbuttoned. They were gut-a-rific!
|I have no idea what I'm doing. I don't have flavored lipstuff.

Monday Match Up I: My Want (But Don't Need) List
So, my Monday feature will be "Monday Match Up" instead of "My Want (But Don't Need) List Monday Match Up." I already have a Linky Party with a long name. Well, some weeks will feature my want list but others will feature something else. This week is the want list. I hope this all makes sense!
My Want (But Don't Need) List
• Another open-front cardi/shrug--I used to run hot mostly but now it seems that I go back-and-forth. Cardis are a great layering piece for this reason. I'd like one with dolman sleeves because the large armholes make for great ventilation.
I wore this open-front cardigan because I'm wearing a skirt as a top and it helped cover awkward spots (I'm also wearing a top as a skirt in this pic from my fall 30 for 30)
• Solid bright tights--I have lots of funky tights but not much in the way of bright solid opaque tights. I'd like a pair or two for those days when I just want to throw on a black dress and add the shock of color.
• Printed opaque tights--I've seen a few bloggers with opaque tights with prints. I want to say I've seen one with a Monet design.
I'm wearing nets over burgundy tights, but I want brighter!
• TOMS wedge espadrilles--The premise behind TOMS is wonderful: We buy a pair, TOMS gives a pair to a child in need. That being said, the flats are not for me but they look cute on others. I DO like the espadrilles and would like a pair for spring/summer.
You can still join the "It's a Small World" Linky.

My Review
We Are Not Kidding You!
My 6- and 8-year-old sons played this as soon as it arrived. They found it crazy and funny. It was a good game for their ages that they could play without adults. A good substitute for TV!
Addendum: I totally didn't know my review was going to post like this. Whatever, I'll leave it. This was my review of a board game called "You Gotta Be Kidding."

Fashion Blog Flash Mob--Act III Scene II "It's a Small World"
The wardrobe was supposed to be a dress or skirt, but I'm flexible. Link up a recent post or a past one fitting the pose with or without skirt/dress. I usually schedule my FBFM posts for just after midnight, but I'm still awake. I keep watching the news. I think it's time for beddy-by. I'll be back in the morning to post my outfit.

A Linky Linky Kind of Girl
Jen-in-a-Cube. Jewelscapes Mother-of-Pearl necklace
Today I'm linking up with Jewelscapes for "What I Wore Wednesday" and A Taste of T for "What's on Your Mind? Wednesday" (although this is her Virtual Baby Shower Week, so everyone's mind is on that and I forgot).
• I don't have a head-to-toe outfit shot because photography is too expensive
• Okay, I don't pay my photographers, but time is money
• I don't have much time
• The rest of my outfit is not that interesting
• Unless gray slacks and square-toed booties interest you
• You interested in buying me exciting slacks and booties?
• If beggars can be choosers, can you buy me mid-calf boots instead?
• If beggars can be choosers, can choosers be beggars?
• If A = B, does B always = A?
• If Desi = My son, does my son always = Desi?
• You're welcome for the math lesson!
Ooh, my mind just remembered this:
• Come join me for the Fashion Blog Flash Mob on Saturday
• Wear a dress or skirt or dress as a skirt, and pose for Saturday Shout Out
• I promise to minimize the math on that day

A Want (but Don't Need) List
Jen-in-a-Cube. Is this considered a Peter Pan Collar?
I've been seeing posts about Peter Pan collars lately and discovered that 1) I didn't know this collar shape is called that and 2) I want a Peter Pan collar blouse or dress.
I've had a mental list of items with specific features that I would like, all due to perusing fashion blog after fashion blog. Now I will put that list to paper so-to-speak and share with you.
My Want List
1) Blouse or dress with Peter Pan collar (repetition for emphasis)--A Wednesday Addams-ish dress would be so me. But, a pretty pastel version like Brittany's would be nice for spring.
2) I didn't used to think I liked faux fur or animal print, but the latter has grown on me. Leopard seems to be the "in" print. I'm not sure if I want lots of leopard or just a touch. I like Melissa's dress (when going to get her link, I discovered that she featured leopard booties on Thursday), this coat Amber Lena is selling on Smashion, and Lizzy's top and belt.
3) A print of animals. This is different because it's a print of a whole animal (usually cartoon-like) in some sort of pattern like Kimmie's giraffes. I think this is too cute! I wonder if I can find a geoduck pattern to represent the PNW?
I know many others have rocked these different looks I've mentioned. I have an idea! Here's a Linky if you want to link up any of your posts featuring a look I've listed on "My Want List."
I think I may have a new Monday feature! Yeah, it's Sunday but I don't feel like scheduling this post for Monday for alliteration's sake: My Want List Monday Match-up. Next Monday! Plus, I'll keep up this post through Monday. Bam! How you like me now? Does it sound like a good Linky idea? Would you participate?
I'll determine and announce the winner of my TinyGoatStudios giveaway on Tuesday. Sorry for the delay!

Fix-it Friday: Little Fix and Big Explanation
I had a post planned for Thursday but I didn't get around to posting. How was my Thursday?
• The day started out with a nose bleed (I may or may not have a little boy who digs for gold. I'm not saying that's what started it but I'm not doubting it either)
• Boys tardy to school
• Had to drive to work and park in scary parking garage across the street (at least 10-hour early bird parking is only $7.50)
• In the evening, hubby stuck in traffic for three hours (usually takes :45 in rush hour traffic)
• Had to call around to have someone on our approved list pick up our boys from afterschool care so we wouldn't have to pay $1/minute/boy for every minute late
• Hour later going to turn left onto friends' street to pick up boys (I sense a shout out for tomorrow) because hubby still stuck in same half-mile (if that) stretch, see cop car with lights flashing in rearview so pull over to right. He's not pulling me over, he drives by
How was your Thursday? Fix anything this week? Link up!

I'm Back, and in Living Color!
Drizzle=Bad hair day
I used to wear this skirt maybe twice or thrice per year because I didn't know what to wear with it. Blame it on my matchy-matchiness. I would only want to wear it with an off-white or orange top--the exact matching shade of orange. Since I don't have such a top, this gorgeous gifted Anthro skirt has spent most of it's lifetime in my closet. Poor thing. I should wear it everyday. Maybe not. This isn't the 3 or 4 for 365 challenge.

Saturday Shout Out: Won a Giveaway (and Hosting a Giveaway)
• A shout out to Melissa Nucera who is a graphic artist with two Etsy shops: This Year's Girl which features "Whimsical & Vintage Inspired Handmade Jewelry", and Visual Sentiments which features "Original Art and Accessories". She sponsored a contest for a $25 certificate to each shop! Her prices are reasonable for such lovely decorative art and wearable art. I chose "The Queen" as my print. I will share what I chose from Visual Sentiments when I wear them, and of course link back to her shop because you will be tempted :D
• A shout out to Take It From Me which reviewed some of her pieces and did a beautiful write up. They hosted her giveaway and I was quick to enter. This is one I really, really wanted to win. Of course I want to win all contests I enter, but this is one I kept going back to check because I just really, really like Melissa's jewelry and artwork.
• A shout out to random.org for randomly choosing my entry and for being a free service because I plan to use them for my giveaway (great segue, huh?).

Fix-It Friday: Major Fixin'
• I finally got my button up earlier this week! I'm using one of the commissioned sketches from WobiSobi. It turns out that the dimensions were funky so I had to fix again. It's a functioning button now! Really, you should grab it, put it on your blog, and test it :D
• I keep forgetting to tag my outfit posts. Oh well, I wore the same things for 30 days so you probably figured out everything :D
• Yesterday I introduced my first blog giveaway and I tried to make sure I included everything. One thing I fixed this morning is adding that this contest is open to all readers. So, check out yesterday's post and enter! (All entries must be made in the original contest post for the sake of centralizing all entries)
• My MAJOR fix this week? I've decided to slow down my posts. I had set a goal for myself to do daily posts for my first year of blogging. Over the months, I've hemmed and hawed about slowing down but each time I convinced myself that I could keep it up. I know I can, but at the expense of interesting content. I'm not saying that I offer fantastically brilliant posts, but I want to write more. I don't want to post something quickly just for the sake of having a post for the day. If I still don't have a post at 11:30pm after a long day of this and that, I don't want to stress about writing something quickly. I don't want to look up one day and discover my children have left for college and I was busy blogging away! More power to you moms who work full-time and post daily. I tried and did it for about six months, but I'm no Superwoman. (I'd rather be Wonder Woman anyway)
(I will have a post tomorrow since I have a Saturday feature)

Fashion Blog Flash Mob: Happy Dance! **GIVEAWAY CLOSED**
Even if your challenge is still in progress, you are unable to complete it, or you didn't join this time, come dance with me! I won't kid you, I will dance solo on the dancefloor even after the music stops playing, but it's still fun to have company. I mean, how can I go in the middle of the circle to bust it if there's no circle?
Just to clarify, the happy dance isn't because I'm glad that I'm finally done with the 30 for 30 challenge. It's not a "good riddens" celebratory dance. It's a "Yay, I accomplished the challenge!" dance. A celebration of achievement if you will.
While I'm still practicing my routine, why not enter my first blog giveaway sponsored by TinyGoatStudios (aka my hubsters)?
|"Path of the Comet"
Enter to win a statement ring similar to this, custom-made for you in your size! You'll win a second ring as well, but that one is TBD. Yes, you choose it!

30 for 30 Day 29: No Leap Year
I thought I'd wear my green top with the bow playing peekaboo again. Last time I did it with a cardi.


text:
In February 1942, intelligence officer Victor Jones erected 150 tents behind British lines in North Africa. "Hiding tanks in Bedouin tents was an old British trick," writes Nicholas Rankin. German general Erwin Rommel not only knew of the ploy, but had copied it himself. Jones knew that Rommel knew. In fact, he counted on it - for these tents were empty. With the deception that he was carrying out a deception, Jones made a weak point look like a trap. In A Genius for Deception, Nicholas Rankin offers a lively and comprehensive history of how Britain bluffed, tricked, and spied its way to victory in two world wars. As Rankin shows, a coherent program of strategic deception emerged in World War I, resting on the pillars of camouflage, propaganda, secret intelligence, and special forces. All forms of deception found an avid sponsor in Winston Churchill, who carried his enthusiasm for deceiving the enemy into World War II.
Rankin vividly recounts such little-known episodes as the invention of camouflage by two French artist-soldiers, the creation of dummy airfields for the Germans to bomb during the Blitz, and the fabrication of an army that would supposedly invade Greece. Strategic deception would be key to a number of WWII battles, culminating in the massive misdirection that proved critical to the success of the D-Day invasion in 1944. Deeply researched and written with an eye for telling detail, A Genius for Deception shows how the British used craft and cunning to help win the most devastating wars in human history.

Sun spoil Raiders' home opener
The Sun burned the Raiders again. The Okanagan Sun defeated the Vancouver Island Raiders 64-20 on Saturday in Nanaimo at the newly refurbished Caledonia Park.
The home team marched down the field and scored a touchdown on its first drive, but the visitors were in control from there, scoring 31 points in the second quarter as they built up to a blowout. The clock went to run time in the fourth quarter.
"We didn't execute," said Brian Ridgeway, Raiders coach. "If we're giving them plays and they're taking them, props to them and the onus is on us to make plays."
The Sun were highly productive with both the run and the pass game, gaining 295 rushing yards and 411 passing yards. V.I. had 379 yards through the air and 47 on the ground.
From the sideline, Ridgeway was seeing his Raiders making fundamental mistakes. He said players weren't in the right position when they were in zone defence, and were taking their eyes off their assignments in man coverage.
"Their intensity was good, I don't know about their focus," said the coach. "We've got to watch the film and see where the busts came from."
Liam O'Brien, Raiders quarterback, said when his team made a mistake, things "kind of barrel rolled." He said football is such a game of momentum that it's hard to get it back when it's going the other way.
"We should be able to fight back," O'Brien said. "We would start to… It's hard to explain."
He finished 21-of-26 passing for 379 yards and threw touchdown passes to Marshall Cook and Dustin Rodriguez. Rodriguez had 146 receiving yards and Arthur Fabbro had 124 receiving yards.
V.I.'s defence was led by Dylan Chapdelaine, who had five tackles and a forced fumble, and Brendan Lattimer, who had five tackles and a sack. Daniel Dubinski also made five tackles. Colton Copp forced a fumble and shared a sack with Tyler Harvey.
For Okanagan, QB Cam Bedore was 18-for-24 for 351 yards and four TDs. Kyle Patchell had 211 receiving yards, three receiving majors and also recovered a teammate's fumble in the endzone for a fourth touchdown. Lerone Robinson had 102 receiving yards and a TD and Dillon Fortune rushed for 126 yards and a TD. Mikhail Maloff had two rushing TDs.
Okie's D was led by Brennan Van Nistelrooy, who had a sack and a fumble recovery, and Jamie Turek, who had five tackles. Cord Delinte, Zac Ironstand and Jonas Gering each had sacks and Nick Schroeder intercepted a tipped ball.
Ridgeway said his players responded to last week's blowout loss with a positive week of practice and is expecting the same this week from his guys.
"They're committed to getting better," he said. "We've just got to keep working on it and [we] will."
Even after the back-to-back losses, O'Brien said the Raiders remain optimistic.
"Honestly, we've got a good team here to stay strong through everything," he said. "Hopefully we can pick ourselves back up and get better this week and win next week."
GAME ON … The Raiders play the Langley Rams on Saturday (Aug. 23) at 4 p.m. at Caledonia Park.
Liam O'Brien, @ViRaiders QB, was 22-for-26 passing for 379 yds, two TDs and one INT… pic.twitter.com/8PjfdZ5MCW

Summertime…and the living is easy… (I LOVE that song, don't you?) But not always if you're the proud owner of a swimming pool. I know, I know, that sounds silly, doesn't it? I mean, all my life I dreamed of owning a swimming pool…and when we found the house we currently live in 8 years ago – and it had one – I knew we just HAD to buy it!
Well, that was the end of "easy" summer times for me! But I've finally found a way to win them back for myself – and turn it into a homeschool lesson or two (smile). Let me explain!
You can find more info on our Affiliate/Disclosure Page. We sincerely appreciate your support!
I firmly believe that life is all about learning – and learning is all of life. So when I incorporate certain chores into our homeschool routine, I always approach it with these questions: what can the kids (and I!) learn from this? How can this (study or topic or subject) add to their abilities and experiences to enrich and improve their lives?
So it only made sense that during the summertime, when pool maintenance is a definite daily chore around here, that we add that one to the mix! My two older boys had just finished chemistry this year, so my mind was already thinking that way, and after some deliberation, I decided that this was a great way to build some "real life" applications to those studies, while introducing my middle schooler to the same.
Unlike most of the lessons I've created over the years, this one isn't really a unit study approach. I pretty much stick to science here. I did that for a few reasons.
- My kids weren't exactly jazzed about "doing school". I get that, it's been a tough year around here. But I still stand strong in the "lifestyle of learning" principle. And since the pool is gonna be a good part of their lifestyle this summer…
- Unit studies, as you may know, are generally considered "cross-curricular", meaning they include other subjects. Yes, they will be doing quite a bit of reading as well as some math, but the bulk of this will be research oriented and hands-on. We're already working on some online studies this summer that are tech-related, so I decided to keep this primarily a STEM activity.
- It was important to me that they see this as a real-life answer to the question that so many kids ask of so many subjects: "How am I ever going to use this (and in this case, chemistry) in REAL life?"
So how DO we make learning chemistry cool?
Well, it all starts with getting in our bathing suits!
First up: measuring the pool and discovering the volume of water. Grab a tape measure and measure the width and length, and then the depth at the either end. Enter your measurements in this handy-dandy pool volume calculator and make note of the answer. This will come in to play later.
Our studies continue with a poolside discussion of the water. What color is it? Is it clear? If not, why not? What kind of things might make it discolored? What are the differences between water, say, in a pond or swimming lake, or the ocean, and a pool? I'm sure you can come up with other questions, too (and do feel free to leave them in the comments – thank you!).
Next, we do a simple water test. I found this kit on Amazon, and the reason I like it is because inside the cover is a really, really useful insert that not only explains how to do the tests, but tells you what the results mean. So…if our pH is low, we learn how to increase it. If we need to raise the alkalinity, we learn not only how to lower it, but what can happen if it stays too high for too long. (Dontcha just love when you find a tool that helps make your teaching job a little bit easier?!)
Based on our results, we head out to the pool supply store and buy whatever chemicals are called for. If this is the first time you're testing on your own, you may want to bring a water sample with you and ask them to test it at the store. In my experience they do it for free, and this way you can take the results home and compare your findings. You'll also find that their test results are quite a bit more detailed, which will give you great fodder for more in-depth studies!
Note: Once you're actually dealing with adding the chemicals to water, you WILL want to exercise caution. And always have the kiddos wear eye protection while working with chemicals (it's not a bad idea for you, too, mom!). While at this point I'm totally comfortable with even my middle-schooler handling the chemicals we use in our pool, you will want to work closely with your kids to get to that point. Help them understand the caution statements and first-aid procedures on any containers, and then I would recommend this 3-step process:
- Have them watch you add the chemicals.
- Assist them (or vice versa) with adding them.
- Finally, watch closely as they do it a time or two. Remember, you have all summer (yay!) and learning takes time.
Once back home, it's back to the pool with water test results and chemicals in hand. But before you just dump the chemicals in willy-nilly, and at any point in the steps described above, talk about what is going on. For example, why are we adding the conditioner to the skimmer? What effect does that have on the chlorine? Why are we adding this much muriatic acid or baking soda or…(the answer to that last one has everything to do with the water volume we figured out when we got started, remember?).
This summer, why not turn pool care into a real life application to learning chemistry?! Click To Tweet
Other pool chemistry-related activities
Since we're dealing with chemicals, our studies should, of course, include a study of the periodic table, or at least becoming familiar with it. A while back I made my own copy of this really creative periodic table "Battle Ship" game. It was all OVER the internet, and turns out my daughter loves playing it, too! This is a fun little game that doesn't take long, most kids are already familiar with the format, and it just keeps "the table" and those basic building blocks of chemistry in front of their eyes… Good stuff!
Other related activities I have the kids do include a word-search game, a list of chemicals to look up, a vocabulary list to learn, and then, of course, the hands-on stuff. You could have hands-on learners build a model of a chlorine or bromine molecule. Computer-related learning could be incorporated, too! Why not create a Venn diagram using Canva, comparing pool water and lake water? (Their Design School has a great bunch of tutorials to help you learn how to use it, too!) Or visually explain how free/total/combined chlorine works using a few PowerPoint slides? (And here's a great youTube video that explains that concept very clearly.)
I'd also recommend this book by Allan Curtis, Ask the Pool Guy: Everyday Guide to Swimming Pools. Very clearly presents, in layman's terms, the basics of pool care, and they make themselves available, via their website, if you have any other questions or problems. (Sometimes I like going to a neutral 3rd party for advice – makes me feel like they're not trying to just get me to buy something…)
Other questions to explore
What's so important about alkalinity? – The measure of alkalinity is one of the components of the test kit we use, but an aspect of pool care that I didn't realize was so important till fairly recently!) This is a short article that explains the role of pool alkalinity in plain English.
What's the scoop on Cyanuric acid? – While this is a super-advanced paper, I include it for 2 reasons. It's a real-life application of science to a life subject/activity, and if you scroll through and read topic headings, some of the first paragraphs under those headings, and the bolded texts, you can learn quite a bit from this. It would be a good paper to use to help teach your kids some note-taking and summarizing skills.
What's the difference between chlorine and bromine? – They're both sanitizers, right?

Free agent Allen still practicing with Pacers
Center Lavoy Allen became an NBA free agent at midnight Tuesday, yet he took part in the Pacers rookie/free agent camp later in the day at Bankers Life Fieldhouse. After the first workout, I asked Allen about his status with the Pacers going forward.
"I'm not really sure," said Allen. "I don't know. I'm not the guy to ask. Anything about basketball on the court, I'm the guy to ask. But anything off the court, don't ask me. Call my agent. I'll give you the number."
So does Allen still consider himself a Pacer for now? Will he play on the Pacers summer league team in Orlando starting Saturday?
"These are tough questions," Allen told me with a laugh. "You're not allowed to ask me anymore questions. That was your last one."
An email to Allen's agent Andy Miller at ASM Sports seeking clarification did not receive an immediate reply.
Allen and Evan Turner joined the Pacers in a late February trade that sent Danny Granger to the Philadelphia 76ers. Allen played in just 14 games, averaging 2.9 points and 2.4 rebounds.
"I knew coming in there would not be many opportunities," said Allen. "When we first got traded, they were the No. 1 team. If it's not broke, why fix it? But I stayed ready. That's what you've got to do as a professional."
Now Allen is acting like a professional while his career future is uncertain.
"They wanted me to come in and learn the system if I possibly come back," Allen said. "I know the guys in the front office really like me, so I made the decision to come to camp."
Pacers assistant coach Dan Burke is leading the Pacers summer league team. Burke is not sure if Allen will play in the summer league or even finish rookie/free agent camp.

"He's got a couple of things on his plate, being that he's a free agent and he's getting married," Burke said. "We wanted to make sure we got him in here to coach him a little bit. We'll play it practice to practice with him."
Allen started 37 games for the 76ers in the 2012-13 season. He hopes he can find a bigger role with the Pacers if he signs a new contract in Indiana.
"I think training camp would be a chance to fight for a position in the rotation," said Allen.
