LOS ANGELES, Feb. 18 (UPI) -- House of Lies, Frozen and Veronica Mars star Kristen Bell has finally joined the Instagram social network.
The actress -- who already has 234,000 followers -- has only posted three items since Wednesday.
"I don't know how to use Instagram but I do like this picture," she captioned a photo of her kissing Dax Shepard, her husband of two years.
She also shared a snapshot of her dog with the message: "Having just gotten a bath and cut yesterday, I'm really looking forward to lola spending the day in the Los Angeles rain. So she can go back to smelling like a sour sock as quickly as possible."
Bell posted a picture of herself as a child dressed as a werewolf for "Throwback Thursday."
"Puberty is a challenge. Be nice out there, yall," she quipped.

STEVE CHIOTAKIS: The Arctic could become the major hot spot for oil and natural gas. But who owns the rights to the riches thought to be under the Arctic seabed? A major international summit on the issue opens today in Moscow. Marketplace's Stephen Beard is with us live with the latest. Hi Stephen.
STEPHEN BEARD: Hello Steve.
CHIOTAKIS: So who's going to be at this summit and what are they trying to achieve there?
BEARD: Well, geologists and officials from countries with Arctic interest will be there -- that's the U.S., Russia, Norway, Canada and Denmark. Now they've all laid claim to great chunks of the Arctic Ocean bed. The Russians, you may remember, actually planted a Russian flag on the sea floor. Now, a United Nations commission is going to rule on these claims, but given the potential riches, there's obvious scope for conflict. So today's summit will attempt to create a climate of cooperation and compromise over the Arctic.
CHIOTAKIS: What is beneath the Arctic seabed, Stephen?
Is it worth all of this?
BEARD: We don't know for sure, but according the U.S. Geological Survey, it could hold 13 percent of the world's undiscovered oil. There are skeptics who doubt this, but the case for Arctic Oil got a bit of a boost today. A small British company, Cairn Energy, said it had struck oil for the first time off the coast of Greenland. It's too early to say whether this is a major find. Environmentalists, however, aren't happy. The Arctic has become a new battleground for them. They say, if there's a major spill in those icy waters, it'll take years to degrade. It'll be much, much worse environmentally than the Gulf of Mexico.
CHIOTAKIS: Marketplace's Stephen Beard reporting from London. Stephen, thanks.
BEARD: OK Steve.

I have two favorites from Mighty Leaf, this one and Mayan Chocolate Truffle. However, somehow… some way… this tea is not as good as it used to be. Or at least as good as I remember. It was one of the first teas I remember trying out about eight years ago when I was contemplating opening a brick and mortar tea room. And I fell in love.
The orange flavor has what I would call a sharpness to it rather than a sweetness. It is very a very bergamot-ish orange flavor. The vanilla softens this flavor a bit, and the jasmine is very subtle but offers a pleasant floral tone to the finish.
Even though the information on this site about this tea doesn't say it, this tea has green tea as well as black to it, so I steep it at a lower temperature so that it doesn't become bitter.
A very nice, well-rounded cup.

speech to be prepared.....help please..!!
Worthy judges, teachers and dear students
Today I, stand before you to speak on "Empowering the Girl Child is the Best Way to Empower the Nation" on the occasion of Women's Day today.
I submit that a woman sits at the centre of a family. If she is educated and enlightened about everything she can take the family forward socially, economically and of course, morally. If a family progresses this way, a district progresses, a state progresses, and finally the country progresses.
You'll agree with me that such a stage of complete progress due to a woman is yet to be gained. However, I feel strongly that we have discarded many age-old superstitions and beliefs against a girl child, like she is a burden etc. Discrimination against a girl child still takes place in villages but not much in cities. Then there is a whole range of discriminatory practices including female foeticide, female infanticide, son idolization, early marriage and dowry.
But as the time passes such things are left behind. You'll agree with me if I say that today women are not behind men in any way. There are women entrepreneurs, pilots, doctors, army officers, planners, politicians and what not. They have truly shown their worth. It is all due to government policies like Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan or 'Education for All'. Today's woman has woken up to her rights and responsibilities. I wonder how many of you are aware that we have amongst us the most powerful women in the world as the President and Smt. Sonia Gandhi as chairperson of UPA. But much is to be done though we have more girl schools, colleges, universities, etc. Since women are equal partners in every way, they need to be recognized as indispensable and equal. Their being empowered will mean empowering the nation.
Thank you very much.
Hope this helps... :D

Guidelines to buying an old building
[nb: this leaflet is available to Local Authority Planning Departments and Estate Agents for distribution to their clients - please contact our offices for details.]
Are you thinking of buying an old building for the first time? The chances are you will be carried away by the appeal of the property, the pleasure of possessing somewhere with special character, and the usual high emotion and anxiety connected with house buying. But stop, just for a few moments, and read these notes.
We at the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings are concerned with the fate of historic buildings, and are aware how many buildings can be ruined, their special character obliterated or swept away, by the ill-advised and hasty actions of new purchasers. These mistakes usually arise because of ignorance rather than malevolence towards historic buildings. The fault may be laid at the feet of professional advisers, builders, owners, or all three.
These notes are, then, reminders or early warnings of difficulties ahead. By offering a number of common-sense steps to follow, they may well save you trouble and even money. They are the kind of things that in the excitement of the chase you might just not think about. From our point of view, at the SPAB, they are also in the best interests of any historic building.
Making Your Choice
First: before your jump, pause a moment and consider. Is this building the right one for you? It may have magical qualities, but they may be distracting you from reality. If your preference is for vast, uncluttered spaces, don't purchase a cramped cottage and then attempt to turn it into a double height hall, or vice versa. Countless converted churches, schools and barns around the country are proof that standard domestic living areas rarely sit well in a building that once offered soaring space.
Don't buy an old building unless you are prepared to accept its particular character, its quirks, even its warts. It is essential that you adapt to it, rather than trying to iron it into shape according to a completely different model. There was no standardisation in old buildings; they followed the logic of their location, the dictates of materials and the skills of the period. If you make those undulating plaster walls around the house plumb-straight, with every corner razor-sharp, your cob cottage will have disappeared. You will have thrown the baby out with the bathwater. In an unaltered property, the door and windows will follow the proportions of the building as a whole. Replacement doors and windows, especially those easily bought off-the-shelf, have no such sympathetic relationship to the building.
Professional Guidance
Your initial survey may well be carried out by a surveyor with no specialist experience in historic buildings, particularly one employed by a mortgage company. It is worth asking whether he or she is familiar with Section GNA 2 of the RICS Appraisal and Valuation Manual (the so-called Red Book) which concerns the surveying of old buildings. Problems of liability mean that a surveyor is likely to draw attention to all apparent defects. Remember that by no means all the points raised in a surveyor's report will be a cause for concern or will require immediate action.
Once you have completed the purchase, seek professional advice at the earliest possible moment. Try to find someone who is a specialist on old buildings of this type and period, and ask to look at other work they have done. The specialist could be an architect or a chartered surveyor; it is their expertise and attitude to the building which is the issue. The same applies to your choice of builder, or the firm nominated for the job. Ensure that you have found the best people for the job. It may take time.
Cardinal Rules
Move slowly. Get to know the property thoroughly, find out everything you can about it. Explore cupboards, roof spaces, cellar - anywhere might throw up important clues. You will discover evidence of how it was built and of its problems - which may have been dealt with successfully long ago. The more you know about your own building, the better client you will be, the easier it will be to brief a professional adviser or to work with a builder.
Don't start ripping out the building carelessly - what may appear to be worthless and immediately disposable should offer clues to a practised eye. If in doubt, always ask for a second opinion.
Work out what you can afford. Spend your money first on the essentials; repairs to the fabric can be expensive and depressingly mundane but ignore them at your peril. The 'mod cons' and the enjoyable things like decoration can follow - your reward for all that you have endured. When work starts, make sure that all interior features are protected thoroughly. Even the most careful and conscientious builder can have an accident.
Practical Guidelines
Once work is under discussion, bear in mind some basic guidelines. Respect the changes of the past and avoid guesswork and conjectural restoration. Fashions come and go in this field as in any other - steer clear. Work with what you have; don't attempt to make a simple house grandiose, or to disguise a building converted from another use. Make the most of what you have got. After all, that was what drew you to the building in the first place!
When you have to add to the building or do new work in the interior, don't ape the existing. Try to find someone who can understand the character and qualities of the old but can add their own contribution, respecting the proportions and form of the building. The new work should be honestly of its time, our own time.
Avoid experimental materials, wonder-cures and miracle chemicals. Stay with tried and tested materials. Remember, the old, traditional materials and finishes were textured, rather than highly finished, porous not impervious. By using the wrong material, employing a ham-fisted builder or an arrogant professional you can blot out the character, age and charm of an historic building in a matter of hours.
In recent years there has been a revival in many traditional materials and finishes; keeping the character of your house is easier now than it was twenty or thirty years ago.
In the long-term, the old adage is to do little, and often, to keep an old building in good condition. That is the best approach, from the very beginning.
Good Sense Pays
All these principles suggest that an historic building is something to be approached circumspectly and treated with great care. But, if you are unconvinced, remember that the house that best reflects its age and character, while offering a comfortable and practical interior, will prove to be the most easily saleable in the future. Nothing is more off-putting than a house on which too much money has been spent, to the wrong ends, and on which the purchaser has to spend more - getting rid of someone else's "improvements".
Your building may be listed
Your solicitor should have told you while you were buying the house. Don't rely on the estate agent's particulars which may not mention it. Your local planning authority should be able to supply you with a copy of the list description, which gives some information about why it was listed. Just because the description does not specifically mention a particular feature does not mean it is not legally protected.
If the building is listed, you will need listed building consent for any work, to the inside as well as the outside, whatever its Grade, if it affects the character of the building. As soon as possible contact the conservation officer in your local planning department to discuss whether an application is required, and, if it is, how to go about it. Listing does not automatically stop you making changes: it ensures that what you propose is given careful consideration. Obtaining consent takes time, so don't leave it until the last minute.
Remember, if you receive listed building consent for an alteration, you may be able to avoid paying VAT on that part of the work. But if you go ahead without any consent, you could be prosecuted and be forced to undertake expensive remedial works.
Your local conservation officer, if your council employs one, should offer encouragement and advice and may be able to direct you to possible sources of grant aid.
The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings can also help. Members of the Society can receive a quarterly list of historic buildings that need repair and which are for sale.
We sell a wide range of publications on the repair of old buildings, covering subjects such as damp, pointing, and window repair. We run special courses, including an annual weekend course specially designed for the owners of old buildings. We can help you go about choosing a professional adviser or finding a supplier of traditional materials. We also have a technical advice service, and try to answer individual questions about the care and maintenance of old houses of every sort.

text: ok so to fu yesterday's post; the ruffles for the quilt bag; I thank you all for the techniques you suggested; so I sewed the longest stitch and increased my tension, well I started to pull the bobbin stitch and at first the ruffles started to look great, then as a con't to pull the string it popped! whhhhyyyyyyyy? is the tension too tight? do I have strong Shrek hands? I was trying to be as gentle as I could; it can't be this difficult, this kept happening so i said I said I was goin to forget the ruffles but without them the quilt bag does not look as nice, so has anyone ever tried elastic thread? and do you have to hand wind it on your bobbin?

Back in December, I did a short feature (and giveaway) on three of my picks from the TotalBeauty.com Award Winners 2012. The award categories include Hair, Makeup, and Face & Body. If you haven't already, be sure to check out the TotalBeauty Awards page to see the complete list of winners! Anyways, now that I am back home from vacation and finally got a chance to try these products out, here's a quick review of each item :
Q-tips Precision Tips ($3.00/170 ct. box) – Q-tips have always been handy little tools in my beauty arsenal and these Precision Tips are even better for those quick touch ups! Whether it's to clean polish goof-ups around my nails, getting rid of eyeshadow fall-out or cleaning up eyeliner that has migrated south, these are just perfect to fix makeup mistakes in a pinch!
Wella Velvet Amplifier ($16): A styling primer that preps the hair by smoothing the cuticle and adding a nice texture to improve manageability and amplify styling control. The silky, gel-like formula has a soft, flowery scent. You just need to use a single pump of this concentrated serum through damp hair to get your hair ready for smooth styling , then blowdry to achieve your desired style.
NARS The Multiple ($39) – I tried G-Spot which is a gorgeous rose shade with very subtle golden sheen. The color appears to be somewhat dark in the tube but the cream-to-powder formula blends effortlessly to yield a soft, natural finish. I love how easy it is to apply – a few swipes, blend with a finger, and you're done! It's perfect for everyday use and the color also stays put for a good five to six hours which is quite impressive for a cream blush formula. Designed as a multi-purpose product, the Multiple can also be used for eyes and lips but I prefer to use the stick only as a blush. That's because although the formula applies quite smoothly, it's not moisturizing enough for my dry lips.

LOS ANGELES - To prepare for space shuttle Endeavour's parade, the city of Los Angeles will have to cut down 400 trees along the parade route.
A two-day parade is scheduled in October to celebrate the shuttle coming to the California Science Center, but to make its way through the route, some 400 trees will have to be removed.
The move has some residents upset but the Science Center said it will plant 800 new trees to make up for the loss.
Endeavour was part of 25 space missions and flew nearly 300 days in space.

You may not have heard of Rebecca Foon, but you've undoubtedly heard Rebecca Foon, assuming (like most of us) that you couldn't help but dive deeper into darkness with the Godspeed You! Black Emperor side projects Set Fire to Flames, Thee Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra & Tra-La-La Band, and (less so on a musical level) Esmerine. The latter project was co-founded by Foon around 2003, and contrary to the tags on various music websites, it represented a mild shift away from the post-rock dystopia essentially trademarked by the former outfits. Foon's cello remained, but more for the benefit of soundtracking a stroll through a lush and isolated garden than inspiring thoughts about societal ills.
Continuing her astronomical associations, Foon has just announced I Thought It Was Us But It Was All Of Us, the debut release from her brand-new Saltland project. Out May 14 on Constellation, the album contains a degree of previously unforeseen vocal incorporation, as, according to a press release, Foon herself "sings of childhood innocence lost, of tender utopia reveries and downcast dystopic horizons, and the search for soft, stoic strength in a darkening, devolving world." So, the jury's out on whether you'll need to take anti-depressants after listening to this.
The cello continues its reign as the instrument of choice, but this time it's accompanied by percussion and signal processing from Jamie Thompson (The Unicorns, Esmerine), and contributions from a host of others, including Colin Stetson, Sarah Neufeld and Richard Reed Parry (Arcade Fire), Mishka Stein (Patrick Watson), and Laurel Sprengelmeyer and Jess Robertson (Little Scream). The end result would seem to avoid pigeonholing, with the words "drone," "shoegaze," and "confessional folk" all being used in the same sentence, but beauty, on the other hand, seems like something to count on.
