34 Hours Later...
I was much calmer today since I knew my luggage had arrived to Buenos Aires and I only had one more flight to go once I checked it back in. The flight from Buenos Aires to Ushuaia stopped in this crazy remote city El Calefate but it is apprently the hiking mecca in Argentina and borders Patagonia. This picture is from the airport runway!! The landscapes that I was seeing, I don't know how anyone could live out there, it was very rugged! The water though was this gorgous blue that I was familiar with from New Zealand. Once we took off from this remote town, we were on our final destination of Ushuaia. These airports are so tiny and you see this runway that is almost in the begal canal - pretty crazy landing right next to all of the water. A short taxi ride got me to the Albatros Hotel. One thing I realize - not many people down here speak English - why would they need to - it has made getting around a little bit trickier then my other trips where for the most part someone around knew some type of English. I met this girl right before I boarded out of Buenos Aires and we ran into each other on the street. We decided to eat at this Crab place that the people I booked the tour through had suggested. I got King Crab soup - massive amounts of crab with some veggies. Everything in this town is super super expensive. There were people ordering an entire King Crab for over $50 on 1 crab. It was seriously bigger than my head!
I got to take a photo with the Ushuaia sign today saying end of the world. I need to find a shot glass that says that since I have one from Ecuador that says middle of the world when I went to the equator! Tonight there is some type of protest going on - apparently this is every other day where they just play music and have a parade in the streets. Not a normal protest by far. It is past 10pm here and it looks like it would be 3pm in York - no sign of night and the birds are still chirping.
Tomorrow I will be handing in my luggage early in the morning and have the entire day to explore this cute city. It has all of these cute shops and doesn't give off any sketchy vibes at all - the hardest part is just communicating with what you want. There is a bus tour of the city that they guy goes, well its $200 pesos and it includes a cup of coffee - I think after my past few days anything with coffee is going to sell me. About 15 pesos equals 1 of our dollars. So my bowl of soup really didn't cost $250 and a drink $110! Off to get some sleep because the journey really begins tomorrow!

PTE essay adventure sports skydiving essay
Extreme sports have gained wide popularity over some years and the main credit for this goes to the movies which show the most dangerous stunts with utmost ease. This makes me want to try these stunts and to feel the adrenaline rush for once. But on a second thought, these stunts are not as easy as they seem and you actually risk your life by trying them. both the pros and cons will be highlighted in this essay.
Trying these adventurous sports will help to boost the self-confidence and master your own fears at once. It also aids in accelerating your physical stamina to overcome the myriad of life challenges in every human's life. Also, they give you a prominent name and fame in the world to establish a foothold in the world.
Many people do not pursue this as their fears drag them down and they become reluctant to try new things. It takes a little time but once you take a risk there is no looking back. Not only that, by trying new things you can prevent the grunt work and develop a risk taking attitude and have positivity in your mind.
On the contrary side, these sports are not that safe as they seem. There have been numerous incidents where human life had been at extreme risk and people have lost their lives. It is a huge risk in the name of adventure. There is no guarantee of safety and taking safety precautions is a must.
To conclude, having proper preventive measures is necessary as the risk is very high. That is why it is advised to practice a lot before attempting these adventurous sports to avoid any type of injury or mishap.

Credit Card Center Advertiser Disclosure†
Has anyone applied for the CareOne card for a medical procedure? What was the score needed to be approved?
I applied in July and was approved for $6100. My scores were hovering around the mid 600s. I can't remember if they pulled EQ or TU. But it was one or the other.
Thanks. I going to apply in the next couple of months. I want to get to about 50 more points on more score first.
08-28-2012 12:53 PM - edited 08-28-2012 12:54 PM
I just got it earlier this month, my scores were high 600's. I asked for 4K got 3K. Going to have dental work soon. Pulled TU.
i applied this month with credit scores in the low 600's like 620 to 630 and i applied online. Was approved for $1200. The approval said i could apply for more if needed after 48 hours. I called a few days later and spoke to a person and i told them i would like a higher credit line. He asked what i wanted, i told him i would like it up to $3000. He put me on homd for like 30 seconds, came back and said my credit limit was now $3000 so i feel you have a great shot at a decent amount.

This is not a complete list of everything that can go wrong with cats! They can acquire or inherit some health problems that are more serious than the ones I've personally encountered. Cat Sanctuary cats normally have the opportunity to live natural, 99% outdoor lives, but here are two reasons why I've sterilized cats, confined cats, or sent cats on to city-type homes where they'd be permanently confined and sterilized.
1. Vertical hunting. There is some evidence that this is a gene, possibly correlated with body shape; the old saying is that cats with shorter tails are less effective mouse hunters, more likely to waste their time chasing birds. (Vertical-hunting cats very rarely catch a bird. They catch insects, and often eat crickets and grasshoppers.) If you entertain cats by trailing a string or weed stalk along the ground, it's easy to identify the ones that chase the string and the ones that try to jump up and grab your hand. This tendency toward vertical hunting seems to be permanently hard-wired into about 15% of the cat population, occurring more frequently in some "families." Although these cats won't actually catch healthy adult birds unless they find a nest on the ground, and it's necessary to protect only a few ground-nesting bird species for a limited time, I recommend sterilizing vertical hunters.
2. Frequently catching birds. I'm a bird watcher and know the local species. If a cat catches one bird from a ground-nesting species, it's time to confine the cats for an appropriate length of time--grouse and songbirds usually need protection for about three weeks in spring.
If a cat catches a bird from a tree-nesting species, the cat will confess by vomiting, and it's time to watch the cats. If more than one of these birds is spending enough time on the ground to interest my cats, that means a disease is going around. Repeated exposure to the disease could harm the cats. In my area songbirds seem to be most vulnerable to aspergillosis, to which cats and humans are mostly immune...but nobody needs to go on eating fungus-infected meat.

My little man is four months old! It is so hard to believe how fast time flies by. Cameron turned four months on July 17th and as a typical mom, I am late at getting his four month post up! I didn't want to miss out on his four month post because I have told myself that I would make sure to do it each month but he is already almost five months old! Really though where has the time gone! I am going to keep today's post short and sweet because that's just what he is.. the sweetest boy in the world. Over the past few months he has become such a little man. He is learning and exploring each and every day and melts us with one simple smile. Cameron has brought so much joy to our lives and has made us realize how lucky we are. Just yesterday my husband said to me, this is what we always wanted, a family, and he couldn't be more right!
We are starting so many new journeys in our life and Cameron was our missing piece. He is our little bundle of love. We both love waking him up in the morning. He sees us and smiles the biggest smile ever. Of course there have been a handful of grumpy mornings too but besides that he always has the biggest smile on his face when he wakes up. He rolls over, grasps his toys, loves all sorts of patterns, and chats with us. That is one thing we think we won't have to be worried about, this little dude will not be shy!
I can't wait to check in next month! I hope you all have a wonderful week.
XO, Michelle

Robin Ross, M.D., M.P.H.
Diplomate, American Board of Ophthalmology Diseases and Surgery of the Retina & Vitreous Public Health
Dr. Robin Ross specializes in retina and vitreous disorders and has been an accomplished, board certified surgeon for over 20 years. Throughout her career, she has championed technology and clinical research to improve the quality of compassionate care delivered to her patients. She was one of the first to embrace non face down positioning for macular hole patients, embrace 25g technology and utilize wide angle imaging to enhance retinal care. She spent the majority of her career in private practice until the University of Michigan acquired her practice.
She was born in California and attended Stanford University on scholarship. She received her medical degree from Cornell University Medical College in New York where she was a Scudder Fellow. As a medical student, she was part of a revolutionary research team that developed a new tool to repair detached retinas.
She completed her ophthalmology residency at the prestigious University of Iowa where she was awarded the Charles D. Phelps Faculty Award for developing a community clinic. She was one of the first residents in the US to serve as a section editor for Archives of Ophthalmology. She was awarded the Heed Fellowship throughout her 2-year Vitreoretinal fellowship at Associated Retinal Consultants in Michigan.
Dr. Ross has conducted ophthalmology training worldwide and is certified by the International Red Cross for Health Emergencies. She recently completed her Masters in Public Health at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health to improve quality of eye care delivery to patients in the US and Globally. She received the Fulbright Specialist Award in 2017 while serving with the US National Institute of Health in West Africa to train eye professionals.
Dr. Ross recognizes that navigating US health care is complicated for our patients. "I wanted to be part of a forward thinking team in Arizona who understood that vision was more than eyesight. Vision loss and cancer are the two health conditions Americans fear most so joining a team of experts, delivering personal retinal care with kindness was important to me."

CHICAGO – Knock me over with a feather kids, but I enjoyed "Transformers: The Last Knight." Maybe it was in comparison to the others or maybe director Michael Bay has beaten me into submission, but this one had the right story elements and casting to make it work, with exceptions of course. It's goofiness is its charm, and it was released on Blu-Ray/DVD on September 26th, 2017 (Digital HD already available).
Slideshow: Chicago Red-Carpet Premiere of 'Transformers: The Last Knight'
CHICAGO – The Windy City became the "transforming" city on June 20th, 2017, as the major cast members and director Michael Bay walked the Red Carpet for the premiere of their new film "Transformers: The Last Knight."

Livingetc Loves: Lasvit's show-stopping chandeliers
by Paula Rodney • May 25, 2017 • Life.Style.etc Loves • 0 Comments
Lasvit's gorgeous new collection of candle chandeliers have more than a touch of the light fantastic about them.
The Neverending Glory series by Jan Plecháč and Henry Wielgus for Lasvit, from £670 to £2,300, takes inspiration from the opulent designs gracing the world's most eminent theatres and opera houses. All seriously dramatic, pictured above, from left to right, are Milan's La Scala, New York's Metropolitan Opera, Paris's Palais Garnier, Prague's Estates Theatre and Moscow's Bolshoi Theater.
Expertly crafted from hand-blown glass by master glassmakers at Lasvit's glassworks in the Czech Republic, the designs come in four standout colourways – Clear, top; Opal, above; Smoke, below; and Iridescent, bottom.
While one is more than enough to make a huge impact, it would be temping – if you happened to be feeling flush – to line up the stylish quintet over a dining table for a truly international experience…

Find info concerning Corning Community College womens gymnastics, and registering for discussion sections and departmental electives. Not all recruiting is done like NCAA Division I teams. It's practically impossible for college coaches to watch every player who has expressed interest in their program, so if you get the chance, make a memorable first impression by visiting the campus in person. Finally, check with your major department for assistance with prerequisites, tuition payment deadlines, and Corning Community College Gymnastics information. Please use the form above to request admissions info for Corning Community College.
As a student athlete, you can play college sports competitively at an intercollegiate level, or just for fun via intramurals. Please keep in mind that few students will qualify for athletic scholarships, and that college coaches sward available sports scholarship money judiciously.
Approximately 126,000 student athletes go to college on either a partial or full athletic scholarship, but the vast majority of college athletic teams have open tryouts, and walk-ons may land a position on the team if they are talented enough. If you've been recruited or made it past a walk-on tryout, that's when the real challenge starts. You still have to make it through daily practices, and several rounds of cuts in order to make the team. Western Reserve Academy personal training certification may encourage student-athletes to apply via early decision. Students who are considering applying via early decision should be aware of the rules and obligations that this commitment entails. Beyond consideration for Corning Community College womens gymnastics, you may think about Drexel University required classes for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

Hospital gives in on harvest of stem cells
McCauley, a scientist who was due to give birth this weekend, was told by hospital officials last month that staff would not permit her to collect stem cells from her newborn's blood. McCauley, who wants to freeze the stem cells to combat illnesses her children may suffer in the future, has signed a legal waiver absolving Cavan General of liability should the procedure fail.
"I am delighted," she said this weekend. "It is one less thing to worry about when I am in labour. I have to sign a legal document to cover the hospital's liability concerns, but I really feel that progress has been made."
Cavan General said it would not disclose the terms of the waiver because of patient confidentiality. It is understood…

Arbitration Program
Greentree mortgage company has been trying to add extra charges to our loan since the loan was transferred to GreenTree from Bank of America. We purchased the home in Sept 2007, and at the time Countrywide was our lender. Bank of America bought the loan in 2009 and sold our loan to Greentree in Sept 2010. Since GreenTree has taken over our loan, they have been trying to charge us late fees and, we have never been late with our mortgage. Also, they are charge us with flood insurance, hazard and fire insurance. We have always paid our own insurance since the purchase of the loan and we have the proof of payment along with the Declaration with states our insurance is paid. On Jan 14, 2012 I received a call from a GreenTree service stating we must pay an additional 170.00 amount with our mortgage each month for the insurance. I explained to the rep that we have always paid our own insurance and our insurance was paid for the year in Sept 2011. The representative (Kevin) did not care to hear what I had to say. He was very rude and was yelling at us over the phone. After speaking with his Supervisor, they apologized and said the matter has been resolved. On March 23, 2011 at 0924, a representative called by the name "Jesse" and stated we were 170.00 short on the mortgage payment. He said if we don't pay the 170.00 this information will be posted on our credit report on March 30, 2012. I asked him why are we being charged an extra 170.00 and he told me, the yearly taxes went up by 2000.00. I asked him to send me a email with the figures. After looking at the report, it was noted he lied and tried to charge us once again for the hazard/fire and flood insurance. He also told stated that GreenTree disbursed 752.00 to Farmers inurance for the flood insurance, and 536.00 to State Farm for hazard, and fire insurance. to State Farm. We contacted our inurance company to find out if they received a payment and they both stated GreenTree never paid them anything. The only payment the inurance company received was from the homeowners in Sept 2011 and the next payment is not due until Sept 2012. We have paperwork and a letter from the insurance company stating they never received a payment from GreenTree.

On the job protection with workers' compensation insurance
What is Workers' Compensation Coverage?
Workers' compensation provides benefits to employees for work-related injuries or illnesses including medical care, wages from lost work time, and more. It also provides a deceased workers' family with a financial benefit. If a workers' family decides to sue a company, it can also help cover the related legal fees.
Workers' compensation insurance can help protect your business and employees in events such as these:
- An employee slips on ice, injures himself while walking up the stairs to the office, and requires an emergency room visit and weeks of recovery time.
- An employee injures her back lifting a box of printer paper and requires a doctor's attention, medication and physical therapy.
- An employee returning to the office from visiting a client is injured in a car accident and requires hospitalization.
With workers' compensation insurance, your policy will help pay for the medical expenses needed to treat these job related injuries and illnesses. Workers' compensation will also help employees keep their income while they take time off to recover.
Am I required to have Workers' Compensation Insurance?
Workers' compensation insurance is required by law in most states and each state's requirements can vary significantly. Our advisers can help explain the specific obligations required by each state and help ensure businesses get the coverage they need.

Superior Service
"During the purchase of a new house, I took the opportunity to shop my insurance, as my current provider's quote was over the top. I looked at several of the major, well-advertised carriers besides getting a quote from Texas General. Texas General not only beat the others significantly in price, but the policy was with a well-known, nationwide carrier and they made the switch quick and easy. I have been with them for two years now and have no complaints."

An equestrian store has come to the aid of a charity volunteer who lost 18 months' worth of savings towards riding gear after a 119-year-old retailer went bust.
Rebecca Watkinson had hoped to buy a full set of riding gear from Lester Bowden, and had ploughed £411.50 raised through a weekly paper round into an account with the retailer based in Spread Eagle Walk, Epsom.
But her hopes were dashed when the company went into administration last month – leaving her and other creditors out of pocket – and again when the store's new owners said they would not help her.
From May: Teenage horse riding volunteer left heartbroken after losing savings as 119-year-old Epsom business Lester Bowden goes into administration
Rebecca, who volunteers at a charity that looks after horses no longer able to race, was devastated, and her father Ian came to the Epsom Guardian to tell his daughter's story.
And after reading her story, Derby Arms Country Store in Epsom Downs offered to provide her with a body protector to safeguard her against heavy falls and kicks when taking care of horses.
"She was ecstatic," Ian, a computer solutions architect from Ferriers Way, Tattenham Corner, said.
"They haven't asked for anything.
"It's nice to see a local business step up and help, and it's nice to get a happy ending."
A director at Stevenson's, the company which had taken over Lester Bowden, said it had no legal obligation to reimburse the Spread Eagle Walk retailer's creditors, and to do so would see it "spiral into bigger debts".
John Stevenson added that the takeover had allowed schools to still be served by a local family business and 50 members of staff to keep their jobs.

Went to this restaurant following Trip Advisor reviews and wasn't disappointed. Small but perfectly formed restaurant. We sat at the bar, served by very friendly and knowledgeable staff. We had 6 tapas between two of us (and a couple of beers) and were too full to eat anything else! Which was a shame as we wanted to try other tapas. I don't think the choice of tapas is the widest I've seen but I cannot fault the quality and the freshness. The VIP croquettes were particularly yummy.

Aren't the friendship style bracelets so awesome?! I think one needs to come home to me real soon. Let's see, only 3 months until my birthday-can I survive without one until then? It's questionable.

Was delivered as promised. My granddaughter had this already and a child came to visit and broke off the tale. When she came over on Friday and opened she was so excited. We hope to bring her to the aquarium in the future. Thank You so much.

Really liked the set of winter.
Posted by Unknown on 22nd Feb 2016
These toys are so real looking, they even have moving parts. My girls have not put these down much since they got them. They saved up half the money to buy them, so that makes them even more special. Plus part of the money goes back to Clearwater to help with their cause, so it's a win/win.
Posted by Joe on 29th Sep 2015
My Daughter Loved it, she stayed in the tub for a longer time.
Posted by Amber on 21st Jul 2015
I bought this set to use as a birthday cake topper as well as a gift for our 8 year old future animal dr. In my opinion it is overpriced...shipping was additional $12!! The toys are movable but I can see how it would be easy for kids to break them if they were playing to rough. The animals are great but the trainers are not proportioned right. They are smaller than the animals. It served it's purpose as a cake topper set and everyone loved it! We have given them to our daughter but have warned her to play carefully with them.
Posted by Unknown on 28th May 2015
Grandson will love it.,
Posted by Unknown on 26th Feb 2015

Posted by Melissa on 18th Feb 2015
I bought this for my daughters 7th birthday. She loved it! She said it was her favorite present. Now she can pretend she's part of the CMA team!
Posted by Christina Maldonado on 18th Feb 2015
I am so glad I was able to order this online. My son and I are huge fans and I am a real lover of dolphins.
Thank you,

My grandkids are in love with Dolphin Tale...this is a great set!
Posted by Debbie Rorrer on 4th Jan 2015
The gift set is very true to life & very well made . Provides imagination growth & knowledge of Winters journey .
Posted by Unknown on 30th Dec 2014
Seven year old daughter loved this set. She has many ocean sets but loves Winter the best. She did break Winter's tale in such a way that it can not be repaired within the first fifteen minutes of play. We are trying to figure out what we can do. It did make her a little more realistic without the tail too. The pieces are big and animals are pretty. The people are a little scary.
Posted by K. Lambert on 29th Dec 2014
My five year old daughter has been obsessed with Winter & Hope since seeing the movie. She was thrilled when she opened this set on Christmas morning
Posted by Unknown on 26th Dec 2014
I have to say, my daughter who is 10 only asked for a few things & they all had to do with CMA. She wanted stuffed animals that had to do with Dolphin Tale & a trip to Flordia to see Winter & Hope. We bought a lot things from your shop, now we are working on getting our daughter to Flordia. She loved everything & thats what matters to me. Thx for having great gifts to choose from
Posted by Unknown on 26th Dec 2014
Our Grandkids enjoyed playibg with it.
Posted by Unknown on 25th Dec 2014
My daughter love it she feels like apart of the experience
Posted by Sue Hunt on 24th Dec 2014
We gave this set of dolphins to our grand son for Christmas. He had visited your aquarium this fall and loved being there. This will be a great gift to help him remember that trip.

Gwen Stefani, Bono and Zendaya Honored at Glamour Women of the Year Awards
At the Glamour Women of the Year awards on Monday night, the elephant in the room quickly took center stage.
"We all thought we would be standing here under very different circumstances," said Tracee Ellis Ross, the night's host, who encouraged guests to "let out a primal sound" in reaction to last week's shocking election results. Ms. Ross, dressed in a silk Fendi nightgown to reflect her "vulnerability," screeched, rolled her eyes and gagged like a poisoned Shakespearean heroine.
No doubt, the lost chance to celebrate the first female president had to be acknowledged early on at the annual event, held this year for the first time in Los Angeles. (Especially considering that Hillary Clinton won 61.5 percent of the vote in California.) But the ceremony at NeueHouse Hollywood for 400 chic attendees, most of them women, didn't dwell on defeat.

Watch Phil Collins, 'Hamilton' Star Leslie Odom Jr. Perform 'Easy Lover'
Late last year, Phil Collins told Rolling Stone that he was "no longer officially retired" and "raring to go" after nearly a decade out of the spotlight, but he hadn't done much to actualize that until the opening of the US Open in New York Monday night.
His brief set began with "In the Air Tonight," featuring longtime Genesis touring guitarist Daryl Stuermer, bassist Nathan East, keyboardist Brad Cole and his 15-year-old son Nicholas on drums. Extensive nerve damage has made it nearly impossible for Phil to play drums at this point, but his skills clearly passed down to the next generation and Nicholas handles one of the most famous drum fills in rock history with ease.

Talented kids to hit all the right notes at 2016 US Open
Eleven talented kids will make their Arthur Ashe Stadium debuts alongside a returning "veteran" after being selected to perform patriotic songs during the 2016 US Open.
The impressive singers were given the honor after being whittled down from more than 200 performers ages 14 and under who submitted performances through a nationwide online audition as part of the US Open Casting Call. They then nailed an in-person call back in front of top music and entertainment industry judges.
Previous winners have used their US Open performances as springboards to land roles in Broadway musicals and regional productions across the country.

And honored he was – with superstar performances from Bennett's pals – including Gaga and Wonder, who teamed up for a rendition of his 1970s Motown classic "Signed, Sealed, Delivered I'm Yours."

In the overrated Cannes Film Festival winner The Square Christian is the respected curator of a contemporary art museum, a divorced but devoted father of two who drives an electric car and supports good causes. His next show is 'The Square', an installation which invites passersby to altruism, reminding them of their role as responsible fellow human beings. But sometimes, it is difficult to live up to your own ideals: Christian's foolish response to the theft of his phone drags him into shameful situations. Meanwhile, the museum's PR agency has created an unexpected campaign for 'The Square'. The response is overblown and sends Christian, as well as the museum, into an existential crisis.
The Square, like most Cannes Film Festival Palme d'Or winners, will not make a dime at the box office, nor earn any Oscar nominations.
First and foremost, the studio that snagged it for U.S. distribution, Magnolia Pictures, is not allowed to release movies in major theater chains such as Regal and AMC Theatres, as Magnolia Pictures allows all of their releases to debut on Video On Demand either before the theatrical release or day and date, a big, big no-no for the major theater chains.


text: Since most of the threads around here have been about Christianity as of late, I thought I'd try to spark a discussion around an interesting faith. Taosim. I'm curious what peoples' thoughts are on this fascinating faith. Know any praciticioners? note: This thread is NOT here to discuss why your religion is better than Taoism, how it's inferior, etc. This discussion should just be thoughts on Taoism itself through a sociocultural, religious, and historical perspective! :nod: The following text is from www.beliefnet.com More info also at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taoism#Practices if you're interested.

text: I saw the other thread on basement ceiling acoustics, but it's more about sound insulation/isolation. I really don't care (well, not willing to) about sound proofing my HT room. It's a low ceiling, and after putting in a floor, and carpeting and the like, then trying to add in double layered floating ceiling or something isn't worth it. Anyway, I don't have a picture, but it's easy to visualize. About 7 foot ceiling, and the HT will be oriented with the floor joists running across the width of the room. I was thinking of just leaving the joists exposed, and painting them a nice dark color. I was thinking that this would leave me with a nice diffuse sound from the ceiling, while all the joists block any direct reflections coming from the front speakers. If I put drywall up there, then I'd have to treat the ceiling to eliminate those first reflections, and i'm losing valuable inches of headspace, and just creating another acoustic problem that I'd have to fix. Does that make sense, and what do the acoustic experts think, am i being logical? Another option would be putting fiberglass in between the joists, and covering the ceiling with fabric, thus not losing any space, and it could serve as either a mid-high absorption up there, or I could use hard fiber boards and use the joist space as broadband bass absorbers. I could also put helmholtz resonators up there too. And I was also pondering the option of something like ASC's walldamp, not for isolation purposes, but for bass absorption. Is this necessary(and worth the cost), or would this kill the bass in the room *too* much. Thanks for the help and suggestions.

London Calling: A Snapshot of Amanda Harlech's Day at Chanel
Yesterday I caught up my British compatriot Lady Amanda Harlech in Paris, who was charging around Chanelheadquarters in the Rue Cambon, Hasselblad digital camera in hand. "I'm taking close-up pictures of the collection for Karl," she declared, hitching up her black chiffon Chanel maxiskirt and bounding two steps at a time up the stairs to the studio. "The fabrics are so amazing. Cubic flowers that look like origami. The finest pinstriped lines of sequin on cellophane. Extraordinary pleating like scribbled clouds. It must be recorded."
Amanda's status as a great British entity and member of team Lagerfeld is just one of those facts of haute couture life taken for granted in Paris. She's there in one of those mysteriously nebulous roles outside observers might imagine involves a lot of wafting and not much doing. Spending half an hour in her frenetic day of keeping up with Karl puts that notion to rest. Amanda's responsibilities might be more about being Amanda—sounding board, verbalizer, culture explorer, expert enthusiast, couture cheerleader—than anything a literal-minded human resources officer could pin down as a job description, but her schedule is a nonstop blur. "What am I doing today? Well, I've just been to the Grand Palais with Karl to look at the set which is a building site—kind of going to be an Old World theater that crumbles away so you can see a modern skyline beyond. I'm glad I wore flats because I didn't expect we'd be off tramping over the Seine to see Karl's exhibition of photographs—daguerrotypes and platinotypes!—he's done for Fendi about the glory of water. Then back to the studio and the accessorizing. Don't know when we'll finish here. It could be midnight. Then Karl will drop me off at the Meurice, and I'll see [my daughter] Tallulah."
Reported sightings of Harlech's daughter were making their way to the studio. "I've just seen her on the street, wearing pajamas!" remarked Franca Sozzani, editor in chief of Italian Vogue, an incoming visitor. "Oh, is she? My pajamas, you mean?" Harlech twinkled, hands on hips. "The ones she spotted on me that I wore in Singapore when we were doing the cruise show in May, and I thought I'd do that 1920s thing?" Harlech junior, an actress, now has a place of her own in the front row as second-generation fashion aristocracy. That doesn't stop Lady Harlech and her daughter from bedding down in the same room at the Meurice together. (Frugality is a defining trait of upper-class English womanhood).
After the two couture shows today, what's Amanda up to next? "There's the Fendi party on the third. Then home. And back again to shoot Karl's movie for the Metiers d'Art show, which is going to be in Dallas in December. And there's the ready-to-wear show in Paris before that, of course." In the meantime, Harlech will be going to the Edinburgh International Festival to take part in its new fashion offshoot.
But the real key to Harlech's indomitable British combination of flighty imagination and no-nonsense practicality really lies far, far away from fashion on a farm in the inaccessible borderland between Wales and Shropshire. "It can take three and a half hours just to get to London some days," she says briskly. "But I love it!" At home, Harlech is a writer (she's working on a novel), a farm manager, and a mad-keen horsewoman. She has eight horses, competes, and is the proud owner of a month-old foal, King Alfred. (All this is documented on her Instagram). Equally in her element at the court of King Karl or mucking out King Alfred's stable, what could be more terribly down-to-earth and British than that?

Juliet E. McKenna: The Swordsman's Oath (1999)
Review number: 693
The second of Juliet McKenna's trilogy is rather a repeat of the first, with much the same group of characters making their way across the world she has invented to try to discover more about the attackers who threaten to overwhelm it. The Elietimm, as these attackers are named, use and entirely different and almost unknown form of magic, and that is what makes them formidable enemies, with their single-minded ruthlessness.
The main difference in this novel is that we learn a lot more about the events six hundred years in the past which led to the downfall of a huge empire and the general abandonment of etheric magic. Part of the narrative is in fact set in the past, and is the main flaw in an otherwise excellent fantasy novel: it is insufficiently distinguished from the main story, which makes things a little confusing to begin with. (Clearer headings for the sections set in the days of the Empire would be a big help.)
The setting and characterisation remain as strong as in The Thief's Gamble, and I eagerly look forward to the conclusion of the trilogy.

My phone and email are blowing up. Responses of "I totally understand what you are saying," in reference to the piece I wrote yesterday about needing a vacation from your kids. Most are not necessarily on board with the pot slant- although they could be convinced to toke the smoke if it meant two days free of picky eaters, battling siblings and toddler tantrums.
I keep coming back to this question: Is this hungering need for free time simply the norm for parents of young children, or is it a symptom of a generation that was brought up to believe everything is about them?
Of course all parents fantasize about free time. How can you not? From the time sperm meets egg, your every thought is viewed with a "is this good for my kid" filter. You might blow off the occasional family dinner to have a night out with the girls, but for the most part, your actions are made with the benefit of your children in mind.
Maybe it is my self-centered nature, but I believe Generation X parents are presented with a different brand of problems than our parents or grandparents. Among my peers, most people waited longer than their parents to have children. Statistically, this is true. In 1970, the average age of a new mom was 21. In 2008, it was 25.1.
I actually expected this to be a much higher number. Most of the mothers I know are not only in their thirties, they are in their late thirties. I am thirty nine years old and have two children who are not yet school age.
I bring up this statistic because I believe it speaks to a different mindset. We waited to have children because we wanted time to establish our careers, travel, and become secure financially- which makes sense for raising a family. What that translates to is having years upon years to do exactly what we wanted. We grew accustomed to having our time and money to ourselves and not having to share those things with anyone else.
Even our culture has changed to accommodate the "me me me" mentality. When was the last time you heard an entire album? How many commercials have you watched recently? I remember as a kid begging for a Cabbage Patch doll for Christmas, and my mom explaining that they were sold out everywhere. Now, I would simply go online and Amazon it. Or Craig's list. Or find a blog that shows me how to DIY it. When was the last time you waited beyond two days shipping for anything?
Gen X grew up being taught we are the center of the universe. As parents, we no longer resemble the Sun.
But are we really so different from our parents? The other night over dinner, Ben asked his mom if she remembered feeling overwhelmed as a new parent. S had Ben and his sister within less than two years of each other, and did not have any family beyond her husband close by to help out. Her response to Ben's question was "Well, I remember at one point knowing the only movie I had seen that year." (If you are wondering, it was All The President's Men.) She said it as a matter of fact, without a hint of resentment. That's just the way it was, and she accepted it.
Maybe she just didn't want to tell her own child that at one point, she had sometimes locked herself in the bathroom just to get a few moments of privacy. And that's really what it comes down to isn't it? We can deal with not loving the job of parent every second of the day- we just don't want our kids to know we feel that way.
Part of the reason I waited to have children is because I remember how stressed and tired my own mother seemed. I know she loved and loves me. I know being a mom is what she feels she was put on this Earth to do. But I also remember feeling as a child like her life might be easier if it didn't have me in it. Irrational child thinking, most likely brought on by some selfish sentiment, but there all the same.
Liam is now four years old. He comprehends a lot. Today, he found a Batman utility belt at the thrift store that was just a little too big to fit him properly. A few hours later, he is wearing the belt and three pairs of pajama pants. I ask why all the pants and he responds that it is to keep his belt up. That's some high level thinking.
The last thirty minutes before Daddy arrives home from work are always a bit of a tense countdown. Are we going to make it through the day with a lingering memory of all the fun we had? Or are we going to all fall to tears as one boy tattles "he hit me" and I grind my teeth together to stop from shouting "enough!" Whether I keep it together, whether I give way to my anger, they see my reaction and know they are causing it. Does the entire day of reading stories, making obstacle courses and pretending to have light saber battles win out? Or do they end the night thinking how they upset Mommy?
We can't be perfect. And we shouldn't be. What happens if every time they grate on nerves I simply swallow it down and paint on a smile? What lesson are they learning there? But I still can't stop the guilt from rising when I know my frustration has gotten the better of me and they are the recipients of that emotion.
We've all heard that phrase "it takes a village." But the modern village is across state lines, held over Skype and via email. How did our mothers do it? When we drove them to the point of wanting to lock themselves in their rooms and zone out to Dynasty, how did they keep it together and live to tell the tale? How do we ensure our kids see the love and not the annoyance?
Are we a product of our generation or simply another loop in a long chain of parents on the brink?
