Following up on the ladies' 'Rugby Pack' releases comes a new duo of New Balance 574s with their own theme. Dubbed the 'Core Plus' WL574s, these counterparts to the mens releases by the same name utilize the same simple formula to great success. Grey and black pairs utilize tonal suede and mesh uppers, adding purple and mint accents, respectively, for a couple of subtly expressive takes on the iconic silhouette. Check out both in greater detail below, then find yours at top NB retailers like Feature Sneaker Boutique.

I am truly in love with this week's garden party tabletop, and I have to say that the flowers are really the focal point bringing the whole look together. Inspired by an array of Spring floral arrangements I found on Pinterest, I reached out to my friend Carly {follow her at @Carlyragosta) to help me bring my vision to life. In awe of her flower market finds, I had to have her break down the look so we {yes, you and I!} can re-create them in the future. Thankfully she put together an easy shopping list to help us out… and since this isn't my first rodeo, I figured I would share a few tips from flower arranging on the regular. So here we go….
- What are the stunning flowers in these arrangements? Peach Anemones, Iris, Ranunculus, Lisianthus, and Ixia. Not featured were English Garden Roses in a different picture on my table, which are also a favorite flower of mine. Whether you plan to buy them individually or arrange a few together, you are bound to create something stunning!
- Ok so you want to create this at home? We used 2 low round vases {this for the larger and this for the smaller}. Carly started with the larger of the vases and arranged the larger blooms first, then slowly added in the more delicate ones and the greenery. Personally I always like my arrangements in clusters of 2, so for the smaller vase we just did a few sprigs of ixia to compliment in color.
- We used small vases that were tight and compact so the flowers weren't too flimsy. If you are struggling to keep flowers in their place, consider picking up a flower foam from your local flower shop or craft store. Just be careful with foam because if you aren't super careful you can break stems along the way!
- Still nervous about where to place certain flowers? Make sure to have your inspiration photos {wink wink this post will do!} handy. I created an entire Floral Inspiration Board on Pinterest that I use {in all seriousness, "copy"} weekly to create flower arrangements for my tables. I update my board almost daily with new seasonal flowers in different color palettes, so it's a great place to find inspiration if you are looking!
- Lastly, you spent all this money and time on your flowers so you want them to last! Ask your florist for flower food or follow some at-home-remedies here.

Alberta's irrigation facilities do much more than provide water for crop production. The network of canals and reservoirs provide a wide range of high quality water-based recreation opportunities. Angling, bird watching, boating, camping, and water skiing are just some of the activities that are enjoyed by urban and rural folks alike. It's only natural — water and sun equals FUN!
Did You Know?
Prior to the development of Alberta's irrigation infrastructure, there was virtually no naturally standing water in southern Alberta? Today, irrigation reservoirs provide opportunities for almost half of the recreational

The World Sinks Except Japan
[Nihon igai zenbu chinbotsu]
Genre: Cornball Parody and Political Satire
review in one breath
Due to sudden tectonic shifts which only the half-crazy Dr. Tadokoro can explain, all of earth's land masses have sunk into the sea with the exception (of course) of JAPAN turning the island nation into the global relief center for the world's population. How will Japan handle its new role as the earth's only government? Directed by Kawasaki Minoru, this film is a parody of the widely popular "Japan Sinks" novel and films.

Two-year-old Teresa was found on the streets in Thailand with serious injuries after someone tried to kill and eat her. Fortunately she managed to escape and get taken in by a local animal rescue, but they didn't have the funds to get her the needed medical care.
Two New Jersey women, Michelle Weirich and Karen Quigley, are working together to bring Teresa to the U.S. to treat her and offer her a new home.
However, she will need an expensive oral surgery, which includes looking at nerve exposure, removal of broken teeth, accessing her nasal passage, dealing with tongue trauma, palate opening to examine nasal functioning, and anything else that might impact her future health. She'll probably also need a second surgery to reconstruct her muzzle.
Weirich and Quigley created a GoFundMe campaign with a goal of $7,000. Until on January 28 when will bring her to the U.S., she'll stay at the animal rescue in Thailand.
Teresa will go to a vet in Robbinsville, NJ, on February 1. If you want to help her, you can donate here.

In England, the accountants rule. But it's the lawyers who are dominant in business in the United States.
I work in England under the rule of accountants and they call the shots in business here. For a profession that has zero television shows made about it, accountants really do command a lot of screen time in the office and in the board room. But 'LA Accountant'is never going to make prime time.
Tom Kilroy (@kilroyt), general counsel at the English-headquartered global software company Misys, wrote about how lawyers need to understand finance to be taken seriously in business. Tom's right – lawyers need to do more than understand the numbers. I think it needs to go further and the general counsel should work closer with the chief financial officer, more than one might think.
General counsel can learn a lot from the chief financial officer because finance and opinions applied to strategy are not taught at General Counsel School.
The CFO mixes business strategy with legal guidance and creates solutions for a company. The CFO adds real value to the business beyond necessary functional cost centre. For example, a lawyer understands obligations that a board must comply with. The CFO understands how those obligations are applied. A lawyer knows that a contract needs payment obligations. The CFO understands the mechanics and timings of how to implement the clause.
A good CFO will understand the numbers and ensure cashflow but will also feed that into business strategy to equip senior management and a board to make decisions. A good CFO understands business strategy and in what order to execute a plan. A good CFO will empower staff with the right mix of responsibility and controls that will allow a company to function inside understood risk parameters. Put simply, a good CFO understands risk and when to take some.
Lawyers naturally feed into the business strategy as well, but from what I see are more removed from the business core – aloof even – proffering frameworks that are legal but lack nuanced understanding of what the board should do with the legal information. Lawyers will naturally try to run a risk-elimination strategy – great for law, not always that beneficial for the business.
CFOs will usually have more exposure to the board room because they present financial reports to the board. They get to glean first hand how a board functions and learn how to present information in a manner appropriate to the board. A general counsel will need to be aware of that dynamic when presenting to the company's board.
I take every opportunity I can to seek the CFO's input before presenting legal reports to the board – the guidance is invaluable and usually starts with "the board will expect to see…". Now, instead of presenting a legal analysis, which is just one part of the legal report to the board, I try to begin sentences with: "Based on my analysis and experiences, I would recommend that…".
Deliver a legal solution, with options, and in doing so be clear, concise, sharp and to the point. Doing that, more often than not, elicits a directive from the board to implement the recommendation.

face painting by k04skWatch
©2008-2017 k04sk
So I do face painting as well at Disneyland part time while I go to school. Heres a design I did for a carnival that I volunteered for at my school. I rather liked it so I figured Id post it up. It helps having a nice canvas to work on haha : p
so pretty <3
awesome work!~ :3
This looks really awesome. I absolutely love how those colors turned out, and the design itself is amazing! Great job! ^^
thank you for your kind words , its been awhile since i painted faces lol
it remind me during the time when i study, i also work as part time in face painting, normally i painting on kid, butterfly... , i can see ur brush stroke are cool, i l know is not easy paint on the face, is different compare paint on paper, great work.
this is so very pretty! i've been trying my hand at face painting lately and enjoying it thoroughly!!! i work at a recreation dept. so whenever i feel like practicing i can bring my paints and give it a go! i think i will have to try wolfe bros. i usually use kryolan, but i've heard good things about wolfe bros!!! have a great day and keep up the lovely work!
oh well thank , there are actually people at my work who I think are way more talented but unfortunately my company is becoming more and more like a business and less and less like an art shop . so the quality that comes now a days is terrible . I never heard of kryolan , I kind of just use what they give me . I like your butterfly design we do similar things at our work . Maybe Ill post some work up soon!
Very nice! I love the immaculate swirls. Nothing looks out of place. ^_^
I don't suppose you'd tell me what brand of makeup you use? It looks like it goes on really well.
I don't suppose you'd tell me what brand of makeup you use? It looks like it goes on really well.
yeah they emphasize swirls a lot at my place i guess , mostly cause round shapes look good on women . We use Wolfe Bros FX paint , its a hydro color paint its pretty awesome stuff I love it. Its really sturdy and you don't need a lot of water , so the paints last for a pretty long time. Its kind of expensive , but I like it way better than Snazaroo. you can do a lot more things with it . I hope that helps
so pretty! and i'm jealous of your disneyland face painting
just took a lot at your work , perhaps it is me who should be jealous of your work , some of that stuff looks real in the thumbnail . You already seem like a professional in my opinion so keep up the good work . Good thing I don't plan on being a make up artist or I would get owned!!
haha dont be , its really not that hard to learn ne one can do it!!

Frictional Games, the masters of horror and the twisted minds behind the survival horror franchise Amnesia, appeared on the PC Gaming Show to showcase the global premiere of a never before seen teaser trailer for its new horror game – SOMA.
The teaser trailer was relatively short but we are left with a few clues. First, the game of SOMA is meant to present and ask players disturbing questions of existentialism, identity, and what it means to be human. Its gameplay is reminiscent of Amnesia although it has a sci-fi flavor. The game is also set deep within a facility under the sea. And it is bloody dark as hell.
You, as the player, are searching and calling out for somebody named "Catherine." You are warned not to look into the light as the glowing eyes of… something… lunges towards you as your visions flickers and glitches.
Check out these amazing images pulled from the trailer!
If this teaser trailer left you hungry for more, feel free to check out this 12 minute gameplay demo trailer for SOMA that came out a few weeks ago. SOMA is slated to be released on STEAM and PlayStation 4 on September 22, 2015.

Yesterday my camera did not want to download, today it does. Computers have a mind of their own. Not the best pics as it is dark & foggy outside so natural light is at a minimum.
Here is the fun braclet from the class.
Also, I'm still having fun with the crochet practice. Here's a scarf I completed last week with two different yarns. It's hard to tell in the pic but the oatmeal yarn has little blue & lilac flakes in it. Don't look too close though - remember, I am a novice. I can't seem to make anything without embellishing it. I'd put buttons on my face if I could. When I was a toddler I even put a button up my nose & had to go to the docs to have it taken out.
Below an in-the-works one with three different yarns.
On the whole scarf subject I was just reading my friend PKM's blog yesterday & she & Elizabeth had the same thing in mind. They purchased already made scarves & hats & added embellishments. It turns out we both bought the same book (shown on Elizabeth's blog) on crocheting flowers. They even made an online PDF pattern for you to print out.

In Bengali cuisine the Bottle Gourd is one of the most precious vegetable. It is having the local name Lau (লাউ) with several vernacular names (i.e. Kodu (কদু)). Botanical name is Lagenaria siceraria from the plant family Cucurbitaceae. This was initially native to African region but later spread widely. This is considered as one of the first cultivated plant in world. Though it was cultivated only for making water container from the fruit.
In our country Bangladesh flower of Lau (লাউ ফুল) uses to bloom during winter. On a foggy morning the dew covered bright white flowers look exquisitely beautiful. These white flowers are having five petals and sometimes the shape is quite irregular. Male and female flowers are different. Female flowers are having an ovary at the bottom which later converts into a fruit after successful pollination.
Bottle Gourd plant is an annual climbing vine. Leafs are large and soft hairy with texture at bottom side. The whole plant has a musky odor when crushed. Plant grows quickly and require a lot of watering. This plant can be grown over the fence or a horizontal structure, locally in Bangladesh we call that macha (মাচা).

The leafs and stems are usable as a palatable vegetable in several dishes. The fruit is being used in lot of cuisines at Indian territory. Smashed leaf of the plant after boiling is one of my favorite. You can also fry the leafs with olive oil that can easily bring water in your mouth. Bangladesh has plenty of fresh water fish. Any such freshwater fish can go easily with the Bottle gourd fruit to cook a curry.

Using the shell of the fruit it is possible to make a water container. People have been using such container for carrying water since the ancient time. In our hilly areas the tribals are using these kind of containers even now a days.

The truth about lack
We tend to look at areas of our lives that lack abundance as bad. This judgment blocks us from the realization and opportunity that this is where we are meant to strive for more.
Any lack is simply a chance to create our own fulfillment

Now, when #Fox's hit superhero stabfest #Deadpool opted to throw in a post-credits scene promising a sequel, it proved unsurprisingly exciting for dedicated fans of the Merc with a Mouth. It was, after all, about as strong a suggestion as humanly possible that the folks at Fox were genuinely committed to making Wade Wilson a legitimate superhero icon — and, of course, to making a whole load of money in the process.
Exactly how far those plans stretch into the future, though, has remained somewhat fuzzy in the year since the film's release, with the announcement of the forthcoming #Deadpool2 being matched only with rumors of a Deadpool-centric #XForce team-up movie, and little else. Thankfully, then:
'Deadpool's Writers Just Revealed Exactly How Many Sequels They Have Planned
And, as it turns out, it's slightly more than we necessarily expected. Indeed, as Paul Wernick and Rhett Reese recently revealed during an interview with The Playlist, it seems that they have quite a detailed plan for Deadpool's future already laid out — it just doesn't involve Wolverine. As Reese put it, after being asked about the impact the much-longed for (yet distinctly hypothetical) Wolverine/Deadpool team-up would have on their plans:
"If you're looking at 'Deadpool 2,' if you're looking at 'X-Force,' if you're looking at 'Deadpool 3,' there's not necessarily room for [another] team-up movie. I think it does create real scheduling and universe issues and something that could be ironed out, but it would need to be ironed out. I don't think any of us operated under the assumption that it would be even possible to do a Deadpool/Wolverine thing, so we just haven't planned for it, it's still not in the plan, but if it were to happen, it would require a hard look at the overall architecture of our storylines."
Which, from a "wanting to see Wolverine stab Deadpool in the crotch" perspective, is kind of a downer. From a "#Deadpool3 is clearly very much on the cards, and currently being planned" perspective, however, it's extremely good news. After all, from the sounds of Reese's comments, Fox almost certainly has detailed plans for a full Deadpool trilogy, as well as at least one X-Force movie.
Which is nice.
What do you think, though? What Deadpool-related movies would you most like Fox to concentrate on in the near future? Let us know below!

Sorry for the absence of posts for the past 10 days, but I've been vacationing with my lovely fiancee and her family in Cozumel, Mexico. It was a good trip: some scuba diving, a little relaxation by the beach, some good Mexican food, and, of course, all-inclusive alcohol.
I came away with a Mexican soccer shirt, a handmade bracelet, and, thankfully, Montezuma wasn't able to exact his revenge upon me. We did see these two iguanas engaging in a deathmatch though. What do you think, mating, fighting, or playing?

Global Optics Offers Program to Boost Multiple Pair Sales
Global Optics, in cooperation with Innereactive Media, has released IndividualEyes, a marketing program designed to provide practices with the marketing tools necessary to increase multiple pair sales. IndividualEyes marketing tools are intended to both entice the patient, as well as inform them of the benefits associated with specialized, supplemental eyewear.
IndividualEyes provides practices with the eye-catching materials necessary to engage the interest of patients. Marketing tools available include a patient information video for use in the reception area of practices, countercards, visual needs analysis forms and a thermometer tracking system. The patient information video plays in the reception area to illustrate the features and benefits of supplemental eyewear in non-technical language patients can relate to and understand. IndividualEyes countercards illustrate the need for specialized, supplemental eyewear through easy to understand imagery.
"This program was developed to increase patient satisfaction and boost second pair sales," says Geff Heidbrink of Harbor Optical, who is a member of Global's marketing committee. "The unique imagery catches the attention of patients and helps them understand that no one lens can meet their every need."
Visual needs assessment forms are provided to help office staff evaluate each patient's hobbies and lifestyle. Obtaining this information allows the practice to better satisfy the unique needs of each patient. The Thermometer Tracking System helps encourage staff participation in the IndividualEyes program and aids in tracking second pair sales goals.

Cherry Optical Hosts 2008 What's New University
Cherry Optical, an independently owned wholesale laboratory in Green Bay, Wisc., recently held its seventh annual What's New University (WNU) at Lambeau Field, home of football's Green Bay Packers. Nearly 920 eyecare professionals attended the event, which featured 33 hours of educational programs.
Between five and nine programs were offered each hour over the four-hour CE portion of WNU. A wide range of courses were offered from an ABO exam prep course to how to sell a private practice to a current or future partner.
This year's program also featured an expanded exhibit area. The Lambeau Field Atrium floor provided 44,000 square feet of space filled with 95 exhibitors of frames, lenses, examination equipment providers and other related services available to independent eyecare professionals. As a special treat, attendees were able to walk down the same tunnel the Green Bay Packers use to enter Lambeau Field and have their picture taken on the "Frozen Tundra."
Transitions Optical and Hoya Vision Care were major sponsors of the event.
Vision-Ease Kicks Off Coppertone Promo
Vision-Ease Lens kicked-off a new promotion, "Sell Sun, Win Fun," which runs through June 30. The program offers eyecare professionals monthly prizes for selling Coppertone polarized lenses and provides them with a scratch-and-earn card for every pair of Coppertone polarized lenses sold allowing them to earn up to 20 dollars instantly. The secret code is verifiable online at
www.vision-ease.com for summer recreation monthly prizes.
"Through the 'Sell Sun, Win Fun' promotion, Vision-Ease Lens is continuing to grow its relationships with ECPs," says Dominique Jara, marketing manager, Vision-Ease Lens. "Providing knowledge about eye sun protection and offering the trusted name of Coppertone builds ECPs' customer base, credibility and overall business. This promotion is the most comprehensive initiative to date for Vision-Ease Lens."
The "Sell Sun, Win Fun" monthly prizes include a Sunfish sailboat, a Yamaha WaveRunner and a kayak package for two. The grand prize drawing is a trip for four to the Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island, Bahamas. Without a limit of how many scratch and earn cards ECPs can earn, the program encourages ECPs to create awareness for Coppertone polarized lenses.

Di Matteo rues Andrews exit
MK Dons manager Roberto Di Matteo has revealed his frustration at seeing Keith Andrews leave for Blackburn.
By Chris Galea
Last Updated: 06/10/08 2:51pm
MK Dons manager Roberto Di Matteo has revealed his frustration at seeing Keith Andrews leave for Blackburn Rovers, but wishes him all the best for the future.
The former Wolves midfielder followed Paul Ince to Ewood Park on deadline day and Di Matteo told skysports.com that the timing made it difficult for him to bring in a replacement.
"I knew from day one that he was going to Blackburn, but the way that it happened was a bit disappointing, how he left just before the transfer window shut," he told skysports.com.
"That didn't give me the time nor the money to spend on other players, so that wasn't great for me. I wish him good luck because it was a dream move for him."
Baldock speculation
Speculation surrounding Sam Baldock's future continues to spiral, but Di Matteo is not interested in letting any more of his squad depart.
"First of all I would like to do well and then the players linked away from the club can move on. If the players are playing to a high standard then of course they are going to attract attention from other clubs, but to make a club successful you don't sell your best players."
The former Chelsea midfielder is also searching to bring in quality players as the club attempt to achieve back-to-back promotions this season.
"We are always looking to strengthen and if there any players available that will add to the quality of our team we will look to bring them in, but finding these players available is proving rather difficult."

Are Electronics Ruining Your Life?/
Don't you hate it when your parents say you watch too much TV? Well, as much as we don't like to admit mom and pop are right, it looks like in this case, they are. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, children and teens spend an average of seven hours a day using electronic devices as forms of entertainment. That includes: TV, computers, phones, handheld video games, etc. Seven hours! Between sleeping and going to school, how is that even possible?
Watching Gossip Girl, IMing with friends, Facebooking, texting and playing Angry Birds... all those minutes can really add up. So what do the smarties at the AAP say is the problem? Here are the concerns:
• Excessive time spent using electronic media leaves less time for physical activity or creative and social pursuits. • Violent or sexual content can have harmful effects, as can movies or programs that glamorize alcohol and tobacco use. • Research has shown that high levels of media use are associated with school problems, attention difficulties, sleep and eating disorders, and obesity. • The Internet and cell phones have become major new sources and platforms for illicit and risky behaviors.
How do you feel about this list -- are these concerns valid? Do you think you are responsible enough to monitor your own media use? We want to know, so write to us!

This is a series of article on the Microsoft new framework called ASP.NET Web API which is released as part of the ASP.NET MVC 4. ASP.NET Web API is the Microsoft's recent solid answer for the HTTP oriented protocol services, in other words, REST services. Microsoft defines it as ASP.NET Web API is a framework that makes it easy to build HTTP services that reach a broad range of clients, including browsers and mobile devices. ASP.NET Web API is an ideal platform for building RESTful applications on the .NET Framework.
HTTP oriented RESTful services
HTTP oriented RESTful services are services that make use of HTTP verbs for its CRUD functionalities. HTTP GET verb for read/retrieve functionality, POST verb for Creation, PUT verb for updation, DELETE verb for removal.
For Example, if you are creating an online Bookstore application. You will use:
- HTTP GET verb for retrieving all customer details of the book store or detail of a particular customer.
- HTTP POST verb for creating any new customer when he/she signs up for your online book store.
- HTTP PUT verb for updating existing customer information like name, emailed, address or his/her subscription plan change.
- HTTP DELETE verb to remove the customer from the book store customer list when he/she terminates the subscription. You can either remove the customer permanently or just put some flags and mark the customer as removed without removing his/her entire account from the application, well, that is internal detail as per the application requirements.
HTTP protocol oriented services have been in use for a few years already and is been a trendy way to implement web services (I mean services that run on the web, not the classic Web Services specifically as there is a major difference between HTTP service and classic Web Service). But really a great push towards HTTP services raised when hand-held devices and portable devices like smartphone, tablet evolved to a great extent as it used a rich internet applications with rich user interfaces.
The main driving forces of HTTP oriented services are:
- Hand-held portable devices like smart phones and tablets, these are the revolutionary devices that brought a whole new computing trend these days by brining lots and lots of apps with great user interface that needed huge dynamic data from its server.
- Browser based applications, applications like games, weather apps, personal apps etc., that run as embedded apps on the browser with rich user interface
- RIA applications/SPA (Single Page Applications) on the web needed dynamic data so frequently than plain html from its server and that data is rendered on the page using client technologies like JQuery, Knockout etc.
- Windows 8 brought a whole new trend of bringing desktop apps that run on the windows desktop like tablet apps. Those apps send/receive data over the net and those apps can be Microsoft's own apps or third party apps installed from Microsoft store.
ASP.NET Web APIs are different/better from classic Web Service and WCF:
Though these two frameworks can be used to develop services to support heterogeneous devices and platforms, their main differences are in their communication protocols. Classic Web Service uses SOAP and ASP.NET Web API uses HTTP as their respective communication protocol under the hood.
Diagram 1: Heterogeneous devices possibly with various OS and applications communicating with SOAP, A classic Web Service scenario.
Diagram 1: Heterogeneous devices possibly with various OS and applications communicating with HTTP protocol, A ASP.NET WebAPI scenario.
Advantages of ASP.NET Web API that uses Http protocol are:
- HTTP messages can be cached, firewall friendly and lightweight.
- They can be encrypted and can be processed by the processor in mobile devices.
- Most of the devices in the world have capability to send and receive HTTP messages. So major reach.
- ASP.NET WebAPI provides many features like content negotiation and URI routing out of the box whereas in WCF you got to implement them using some plumbing.
- Full support for ASP.NET routing and filters
- Strong support of variety of output formats like JSON, XML and ATOM.
- Easy to unit test and provides self-hosting support.
Comparing ASP.NET WebAPI and Webforms and MVC:
- WebApi is designed especially to meet the current trend of rich clients/applications that are running on web browser that are developed using client technologies like Jquery, knockout etc are consuming lightweight services over http protocol. In such cases webserver's main role is not just about serving some html content but it's really about accepting data and returning data in different format. You might have clients that are not just browser, it can be a mobile devices.
- But Webforms or MVC are mainly for consuming html. It can do other things like webapi, but for that you got to do a lot of plumbing work to make it happen. In other words, MVC is page/html oriented but webapi is API oriented.
ASP.NET Web API is definitely a strong framework for building RESTful services compare to other existing framework like ASP.NET MVC and WCF. I strongly recommend anyone planning to use this technology for their service implementation that are targeting to global reach.
Let's dive in some coding implementation of ASP.NET Web API in the next article of this series.

Pray then be okay with "nay."
Praying paddling soothes life's rattling.
Prayer is not to change God's mind; it's to change our very kind.
Prayer is not an assignment; it's alignment.
Prayer isn't asking; it's cheering.
Our best prayers confess our errors.
Praying "wow" bests the formal bow and cow.
Prayer for an enemy is peace for ourselves.
The deal begins when we sit still, fold our hands, open our will.
We pray on our knees after life has kicked our feet out from under us.

Vietnam Travel Blog› entry 1 of 1 › view all entries
I left Brunei around 7.30pm, kissed my parents and little nephews goodbye (I miss them already!) Luckily the plane was not full so there was an empty seat next to me...room for my handbag (yes, I am setting a new trend now, backpack with handbag). Next to the empty seat was a Vietnamese woman (she's an Australian now, migrated there when she was 17, so she told me). She's travelling with her family (husband and a 2-year old boy and her mother-in-law. So I decided to take the chance to learn a bit of Vietnamese short phrases:
Vietnamese 101 for a total idiot:
Jiau - Hello/Bye (Reminded me of Aloha in Hawaii)
Sen Loy - Sorry/Excuse me
Bang kuay hem - How are you?
Ya - Yes
Khaun - No
Ten - name
Toy - my
Hwuk tek - nationality
Yoop de - help (for emergency cases like a broken nail)
Jiau buoi song - good morning
Jiau bu toy - good evening
Kai ze - what?
Ergh dau - where?
Key nau - what time?
Kam heng - Thank you
the lesson lasted for about 30 minutes before the lady decided to move to another seat so she could sleep (i felt insulted lol).
8.30pm - I am in Saigon! Weather here is pretty much like Brunei. Since I arrived at night so there was really not much to see then except for the sight and sounds that I am not accustomed to...MOTO-BAI! There were like motorbikes and scooters everywhere...I hired one to take me to my hotel...the guy asked for the address and suddenly his face changed...Q7! (he made it sound like I just gave him an impossible mission). Very far! far?!...what's Q7 - nope its not the new audi SUV it means district 7...and its like 45 to 50 minutes away from the airport.
Now you see ladies and gentlemen, Saigon is divided into several districts (up to 10 i think). The airport is in district 1 or Q1 and my hotel is in an area quite far awar. And I didn't know that when I booked my hotel room. 14 US Dolla! first transaction of the trip. 14 US dollar...for a very bumpy, polluted, yet exhilirating taxi ride...on a "Motobai"...45 minutes later we got to the hotel, and I never walked the same anymore. I guess the most impressive part of the journey was seeing the people rode their bikes (men, women, men and women, women and men, women and a puppy..yeah a puppy LOL). Some even had a deep conversation with other bikers while on the move (now that is something I don't see everyday in Brunei...people drive cars there, with their airconditioner on and windows fully shut..oblivious of who's in the next car).
That was enough adventure for like one hour of my stay in Vietnam. Tomorrow, I need to book another hotel in Q1 where it is closer to everything.
I am still not sure how to describe my adventure in Vietnam yet. The traffic is always horrendous with motorbikes, cars and trucks trying to fight their way through the narrow road. The people are friendly and helpful (so far with a price too) and it seems like wherever I go (especially at tourist attraction places) I seem to have an invisible label on my forehead asking the locals o put extra charge on me. Amazing!
I have to change my plan a little bit. Instead of going to Nha Trang on the 18th, I will be leaving tonite (19th) on the 11 o'clock train. My tourguide has been thoughtful enough to give me the nite train so that I can sleep my way to Nha Trang (6 to 7 hours trip!). Will be staying in Nha Trang for a night then fly to Hanoi on the 21st. Will stick to my original plan on visiting Blue Dragon on the 22nd (need to inform Nadine again to reconfirm my visit). After the visit, hopefully I will have time to go to Halong Bay. My tourguide advised me to join a grouptour bus as it is cheaper. Not really sure how long it will take for us to get there (I think he said 6 hours...that's rather daunting). Plan to stay in Halong Bay for a night then return to Hanoi the next day and fly to Saigon on the 24th. Stay in Saigon for 2 more nights then fly back to Brunei on the 26th.
YES LADIES and GENTLEMEN...I'M CUTTING MY TRIP SHORT. I will be back in Brunei on the 26 December 2008.

Have you ever destroyed an old layout (old meaning 2yrs plus) ONLY to use the embellishments on another project?March 7, 2016 at 4:26 pm #440836
Yes, I have done this once before. Afterwards I felt terrible about it! I ripped off a Prima Vine to use on a pge.March 7, 2016 at 4:30 pm #440845March 7, 2016 at 7:49 pm #440857
I haven't done it yet either but I have thought about it before. I have so many layouts stored away now that I might start recycling old onesMarch 7, 2016 at 8:46 pm #440882March 9, 2016 at 5:07 am #440935March 9, 2016 at 5:56 am #440937
No, I haven't done this! I have thought about it. However, during the move, my Dusty Attic photo carousel that we got a few years ago got a little busted up. I COULD have maybe saved it, but I ended up pulling off the embellishments and I have used most of those! 🙂 It was mostly those Prima cherubs. I hope that Prima decides to make molds out of some past resins because I would really love to make more of those.March 9, 2016 at 8:46 am #440962
I have been thinking about this question all day, and to be honest I actually think this is a good idea. So far this year I have already made 31 layouts, 6 OTP projects and 12 cards. I have completely run out of room to store things. So I think I might just keep my favourite layouts and dismantle the rest – it's a double win, I save space and money be recycling embellies plus all my layouts are saved forever online nowMarch 9, 2016 at 11:35 am #440981
I have done this for photos. When I first started scrapping, I was using original photos. Digital was just coming out. So I have ripped photos off of older layouts, scanned them and reused the photo.

Pull something apart???? I've never considered this, even with my fuglies. I don't know why; I seem to be saving my stuff for posterity or something.
Seriously, maybe because I have so much stuff that needs to be used, I've never thought to reuse anything once it's glued down.
You've certainly given me something to think about!!!!

lol! Sounds like we are at a recovery session now.
I have taken pics off of a page to scan for a repeat scrap. Or, just a few days ago, my mom was asking for a picture so I had to pull it up and scan it for her-these were the days before digital.March 11, 2016 at 9:55 pm #441196
Yes, it does sound like recovery, doesn't it?
Jan, I've always used scanned pics, somehow I didn't want to glue an original down. My sister was doing that and then realized that it was really a pita to unglue them.

RAWALPINDI, Jan 6: College teachers across the Punjab would resume their strike for acceptance of their demands from Monday after the provincial government went back on its words, the Punjab Lecturers and Professors Association (PLPA) said on Friday.
President of the Rawalpindi chapter of association, Mohammad Ilyas Qureshi, said the college teachers had called off their strike in November after Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif assured the association that their demands would be met and appointed a committee comprising two provincial ministers and four secretaries for the purpose where the assurances reiterated.
"But now we have been informed by Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah that our demands cannot be met. I don`t know what made the government go back on its words. Anyway, we are left with no option but to boycotting classes again," he told Dawn .
On January 12, the teachers will take out a rally from Nasir Bagh to the Punjab Assembly in Lahore, he said.
PLPA has some 20,000 members in 500 colleges across the province. The association had been demanding a time schedule for upgrading their pay scales, regularization of contract lecturers and one-time promotion for all professors.
Ilyas Qureshi regretted that lecturers appointed through Public Service Commission in other provinces were offered regular jobs while in Punjab they were offered contractual jobs, adding that, the three demands put forward by the lecturers in other provinces have already been met. "Only in Punjab, lecturers and professors are promoted to the next scale after 25 years and we have demanded that this timescale should be reduced to 10 years. We cannot tolerate this cruel criterion and will show our strength forcing the government to bow to our legitimate demands," he added.
Over 3,000 lecturers in 88 colleges of Rawalpindi division would also boycott the classes and would wear black armbands for registering their protest besides taking their students into confidence for raising voice in support of their legitimate demands.
Qureshi said that the protest would continue till its logical end and would not be stopped on the false assurances of the government. "It will continue until our demands are practically met and we will not surrender," he said.

It's the morning after Halloween and in reviewing the night's events, the prime question remains: How many sexy bunny costumes did we count in total? German beer girls? Barbie dolls? Nurses? Catholic school girls? French maids?
Even – it's awfully popular this year – Sarah Palins?
And perhaps even more importantly, how many of these girls have deluded themselves into thinking that they're dressing as various takes on porn stars because it makes them feel good, because they want to, because it is their "choice."
When free will is influenced by the reality that men enjoy, pay attention to and legitimize the "slutty cop" and her entourage, how much of an unbiased choice still realistically exists? Would the cop be dressing like that if we lived in a society that had no history of turning women into pure objects of male sexual fantasy? Where else would she have gotten this idea? Can concealing it in the illusion of 'choice' every really transform the fundamental nature of the sexy Halloween costume?
The problematic idea here – that women can reclaim "playing slut" by convincing themselves that it makes them happy, rather than men – uncovers one of the basic, most pervasive distortions of modern feminism: that choice makes a difference. For one, choice is heavily influenced by a social environment that caters to the male, and two, choosing to be a sex object can never be liberating by the act of choice itself, when the all-important result – the sex object – remains the same.
So the fundamental question that girls fail to ask themselves here is: why does this make me happy? Is it possibly because women are born into a world of male meaning-making where women seek approval from those who matter – those who own and control the means of production in every form – by pleasing them?
As de Beauvoir famously quipped, "one is not born a woman but becomes a woman." The male exists as both the masculine and the neutral, so that when a woman is set in juxtaposition with the masculine Essential – say, by his pleased gaze and wink when she walks across campus, or even in the moment when she stands alone in front of the mirror before a night at the street, contemplating her wardrobe – she feels her femininity, the consciousness of her womanhood, imposed upon her. She is no longer just a person walking down the street, just a human getting dressed; the flickering identity of being female is felt once again.
In these moments (and often more than moments), the male presence – in physical, emotional, or psychological forms – exists as a sort of audience to which she feels a compulsion to cater: the woman walking across campus, victim of catcalls and snide comments, the girl donning her sexy French maid costume, all function as a sort of "spectacle." The 'stage,' after all, exists as the most explicit form of otherness to the realm of the real. Thus, the woman locates her identity not only in the 'not-male' but also in the psychic space into which the male projects his insecurities and fears as well as his distant fantasies and desires.
The costume-wearing nature of Halloween thus seems to simply exaggerate the performance of gender roles and the spectacle of femininity that already exists in everyday life. Unlike the gender critique that is drag, however, it buttresses the system of the woman-entertainer to male-viewer, condoning and reinvigorating the performative exchange until next year… or just until tomorrow?
Now, let me be clear: I'm not saying it's bad to look sexy, or pretty or desirable. It's absolutely natural for both men and women to want to look attractive, but when looking attractive becomes mimicking porn stars, something is seriously wrong. And even worse when one realizes that it is only dramatizes the actual relations that turn the female body into the perpetual sight of the spectacle and the female self into a flickering non-identity, contingent on the projections of the male.

Updated: Candidate's alleged ties to Iranian business deals roil 11th District GOP race
This post is updated below with Daniel Cowan's comments.
The image above shows two of the four pages of a mail piece that landed in 11th District Republican voters' mailboxes over the weekend.
Sent by the campaign of incumbent U.S. Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Cassville, the slick mailer accuses challenger Daniel Cowan of profiting from business deals in Iran. It's a complicated story.
Cowan, who now owns a boutique investment bank, once owned a company that specialized in managing the thousands of electronic transactions banks and other companies make every day.
In the early part of the last decade, Cowan's company entered a joint venture with a bank in Dubai. According to several news articles, the bank was also separately underwriting or helping to fund major, state-sponsored construction projects in Iran. The articles themselves are behind paywalls here and here. But the gist of both: Emirates Bank International, Cowan's partner, helped arrange deals worth hundreds of millions of dollars in Iran.
The most important word in that previous sentence is "separately" – as in it wasn't the Cowan-bank joint venture doing business in Iran, just Cowan's business partner.
Cowan on Tuesday said, "I had no knowledge of any business dealings of my partner outside of our joint venture. My bank partner in the Middle East was also a correspondent bank partner of Bank America, Wells Fargo and Citibank."
Does that mean, however, that Cowan benefited from the Iranian deal? One could argue the deal probably made his business partner stronger, which in turn benefited the joint venture with Cowan. One could also argue it was completely unrelated to Cowan's work.
But Cowan might have opened himself up to the attack when he criticized President Barack Obama's policy toward Iran. In response to a question at a recent Cobb Republican Women's forum, Cowan said:
"We need to clearly stand with our friends, and let them know that we stand with them, and our cozying up, unfreezing billions of dollars for Iran, all that did was tell our friends they're not really that good friends, and tell the world that we're not willing to hold people accountable for actions that I think most conservatives consider deplorable."
That seems to indicate Cowan considers it bad policy to do business with Iran.
On Tuesday, Cowan said he stands by those comments.
"I stand by my comments that United States entities should not engage in business with the nuclear Iran who has weakened security in not only the region but the world," he said. "The advancement of their nuclear program and the capitulation of the Obama Administration has put the lives of men and women serving in the military and American citizens at risk. I stand by that opinion and won't apologize for it."
But Cowan has hit back at Loudermilk on his Facebook page. In one post, Cowan accuses Loudermilk of using "flawed logic." He says SunTrust and Wells Fargo, both of which count Loudermilk or his campaign as clients, have business partnerships with Middle Eastern banks that also do business in Iran.
"Congressman Loudermilk wants you to believe that anyone who derives income from SunTrust bank, be it by employment, shareholding, or interest income has assisted Iran and funded Iran's arm(sic) program," Cowan wrote on the social media site. "Making a claim that any individual is associated with Iran's arms or nuclear programs is equivalent to accusing that person of treason."
The post includes the nifty image on the right.
This is not the first time a candidate has targeted Cowan's work overseas. William Llop, a Sandy Springs accountant also running in Tuesday's primary, accused Cowan of using offshore accounts as tax havens and sought "lucrative deals" from "foreign governments.
Cowan's camp privately points to Loudermilk's mailer as a sign that the freshman incumbent is scared of Cowan and worries he's trailing ahead of next week's vote. But Loudermilk's team says it is simply showing 11th District voters who Cowan is.
"It took Cowan a week to come up with the Sgt. Schultz 'I know nothing' defense?" sharp-tongued Loudermilk spokesman Dan McLagan said. "The convicted felon running against Barry is more credible and he went to prison as a con man."
Translation for the uninitiated: The bit about Sgt. Schultz comes from the old television series "Hogan's Heroes." A sample is below. The part about a felon is a reference to Billy Davis, one of the four challengers running against Loudermilk. Davis once spent a year in federal prison, stemming from a conviction for lying about his net worth on a loan application. He had his rights restored in 2000.

box heaters
December 13, 2009, 09:20:55 PM »
Are anyone using the old style box type heaters you used to see under the seats in school buses for on the road heat? I'm thinking they would work great for keeping the bays warm and even in the house area, I picked up one thats not too big and hooks into the heater hoses and even has a control for the 12 volt fan, the control is like an automotive type that has a slider for more heat or less heat and has a 3 speed fan, the thing is like new and was only 10 bucks, I got it out of a salvaged school bus. I'm thinking I should get some more for over the road heat.

Aaaaaahhhh, THAT takes me back a year or two. In the early 90's, we had a 25' motorhome, and in planning a trip to MN for Christmas, Larry got the wise idea to install one of those box heaters under one of the dinette seats, splicing it into the RV heater hose. That thing heated like the dickens!!!! The one heater kept the entire inside of that RV toasty warm.
On a side note
, before we left, I decided to insulate the water compartment, so I got my ductboard, foil tape, and spray expanding foam out and went to work, building a box around all of the water components and sealing all cracks and crevices. Last, I sealed all of the way around the door frame into the water compartment, since it seemed to have a gap all the way around. Then, I noticed that there was one more spot, waaaayyyy in the back corner, so I wriggled my head and shoulders back in and foamed that spot too. As I worked my way back out, I felt something drop onto my head,
. . .hmmmmmm.
. this is going to be bad,
I can just tell! Sure enough, the expanding foam had been expanding the whole time, and that nice job I had done sealing around that door had just deposited a big blob right on my head!
I was thrilled

When I took the bus heat out, I bought a heater core for a 5 ton military truck. If I remember right it's about 60K btu 2 speed fan running on 24V. I plumbed it into the bus heater lines and installed it under the couch and it heats all but the back bedroom. It's a great way to go.

I have a ventless propane heater that heats the bus very well while it's parked or on the road, I'm just looking for a method of heating that is reasonable on the road, I know a webasto or proheat would do the job nicely and burn up a bunch of fuel too, but I can't afford a proheat or webasto and I'm even less likely to want to burn additional fuel when it appears that the engine could do the job nicely while on the road. I have a good 20 gallon water heater that works nicely so hot water isn't an issue, all I want to do is get heat in the bus without using the ventless heater and burning propane that I don't have to burn. I'm hearing about 80K units and 90K units and thinking thats a lot of BTU's, my ventless heater is 10K BTU and will roast you out of the bus so I'm thinking that somehow about 70K or 80K is being wasted or lost on the webastos or proheats.

Our Courier 96 still uses the original OTR heating system. 3 box heaters: 1 under the bed that blows out into the bedroom, one was moved under the floor and blows up under the dinette, and one under the dash at the front. It is a little noisy, but it heats so much, you have to turn them off soon after turning them on. 2 switches for them: 1 for the front one and 1 for the 2 back ones. You have to open the water valve in the engine compartment by hand, and remember to turn it off when the weather warms up.

Cody, we still have bus heaters, so i've got nice water lines running throughout with a fan that will just about blow you out the window. 1 in the bathroom, 1 in the bedroom, and 2 in the living area. they work hard just to keep us warm on a cold day in ohio on the road. fran doesn't think hard enough, so she wears a sweatshirt.
10k doesn't sound like a lot going down the road on a cold day though. i've got a ventless for when the elec is 20a instead of 50a. it's the larger 18k. on cold (32 deg) nites, it ain't that great. i'd pick up a couple more if you plan to go with those boxes for "on the road again" heaters.
on our bus, too much goes out the gaps when in gear.

My experience is that 10,000 BTU isn't close to enough to heat my bus to a liveable temp. When the temps outside are 30 degrees, two 1500 watt heaters (10,236 BTU) won't bring even the temps over maybe 50 degrees running full blast all day long.
I've given up trying to heat my bus during the winter since I'm not living in it. I figure the two electric heaters cost about $7 a day to run. My entire 2,700 square foot house only costs $4 to $8 a day to heat depending on outside temps. Right now I am probably closer to the $8 number since it is below zero outside.

I'm just not convinced yet that I need the huge 80 and 90K BTU webastos that I'm hearing about, a couple of days ago I went out and fired up the ventless heater in the living room and started the fan in the front aimed at the ceiling, while the bus was warming up I had a cup of coffee in the house, I went back out and worked on the bedroom, putting down carpeting, I did that in my shirt sleeves and by the time I had the bed back in place it was 74F in the living room and 68F in the bedroom, the outside temp was -4F. The total time was around 3 hours or so. I've only been on the road with the ventless heater in cold weather once so far and it was only down to around 28F so thats not too cold but the heater was on the low setting and it was comfortable in the bus. I do have another ventless heater I had figured I could install if needed but I'm not sure thats the route I want to take yet. My bus hasn't had any onboard heat since i've owned it, the previous owner removed it all, even the defrosters. I'm just thinking about ideas other than the diesel fired units that seem to be so popular and expensive.

Yes, cody, you are correct, an 80k coolant furnace is a fair bit of over capacity for a bus conversion.
A coolant furnace by itself is a shakey choice from an efficiency standpoint.
Both running costs and cost of acquisition. And it has to be some sort of certain larger size, blowing the ability to fine tune load to need, that multiple smaller heating solutions give us.
When mixed with a marine hot water system, a tank of stored engine heated coolant, the need for engine pre-heat, perhaps with the generator system tied in somehow... a coolant based heating system has the "free engine heat" from the day's drive to its distinct advantage, if it can be stored.
Sitting still for days on end, other heating solutions will be cheaper.
For instance, if one has a generator, what's wrong with a few cube heaters and an electric block heater?
Or one or more propane powered ventless units from the camping store?
Don't be keeping up with the Jones', they maybe over bought...

80,000 BTU is certainly overkill. The Proheat I have is 45,000 or so BTU. I think my house furnace is only around 80,000 BTU.
I know from experience that two 1,500 watt heaters are not enough for a 43 foot bus in 20 degree temps. My plan is to have my Proheat running next summer. It may not be the most efficient option, but it is fine for two weeks a year of use.

I have a tendency to disagree with the idea that a bus can't be heated with a smaller unit, until I got the ventless heater we used a small cube heater that has the 800 watt setting and the 1500 watt setting, because our inverter is only a 1000 watt freedom inverter we couldn't use the 1500 watt setting and got by with the 800 watt setting most of the time unless we were plugged into shore power. I had insulated the bus as well as I could, even the floor, I also found that thermopane windows (double pane) were not expensive, I bought mine brand new for 20 bucks each from Bontragers, I tightened the bus up and it is easily heated, we lived in it that way for 2 years in all kinds of weather. Right now I've been working on my daughters house, it's a large 2 story home built in 1881, with insulation and new windows I'm now heating it with a simular 10K ventless heater, the house is 2200 sq ft and the heater is rated for 300 sq ft, the heater is located in the living room and i have a fan going at the ceiling level. I heated the skanee house for many years with small ventless heaters and that house was 1800 sq ft, the key is to tighten the house and maintain air flow so the heat doesn't get layered. I'm now looking into the box style bus heaters so I can save on propane usage on the road, we just came off a horrible year financially and are trying to recover so I'm looking into many ways to cut costs, I simply can't afford to thro money at the bus, I've got to think it thru and do the smart route, for that i'm seeking guidance.

Cody, Cheryl and I were at the CW store yesterday and decided to pick up a Mr Heater Big Buddy,Is this one of those Vent less heaters that you described earlier? This is a 18,000btu unit and says it will heat up a 400 sf space, and has 3 settings, low@4000btu/medium@9000btu and hi@18000btu. I Have to admit, I had my doubts about it's heating capacity and was all set to return it if it did not fulfill our needs at the upcoming Q rally,but boy! does this lil' bugger throw some heat,and that was before I discovered that it had a built in fan
Cody, I remember you had told us last year,that you had picked up a similar unit and liked it very much.
Is this the same unit you have? And should I go get another? They seemed reasonably priced ($149.00),should I get another one? You know,if one is good two is much better kinda thing,thanks

I do have a big buddy that we bought a couple of years ago when we got stranded in a blizzard, they do throw a lot of heat and we keep ours for a spare, if your going to use it much you should get the long extention hose so you can use a 30 pound propane tank instead of the small ones. Thats not the one I mounted in the bus tho, mine is made by Pro-com and I got it from northern tool for 100 bucks, it's got the 2 pads for low (6000 BTU) and hi (10K BTU).

There are 2 kinds of ventless heaters and I've used them both, I prefer the ones with the pads instead of the open flame models, the open flame models are called "blue flame" models and I've found they consume a lot more propane than the ones with the pads, I bought 2 of the propane models for the bus but have only installed one of them so far, I also bought one in natural gas for jamies house and it's heating a 2200 sq ft house right now and doing it nicely.

For $100 I might get one so I can occasionally work on the bus over the winter. Would I also need to get a hose and regulator? I'm not sure this is going to bring the bus to 72 degrees, but even 50 degrees should be enough to do work.

If you don't have a propane system in your bus now, yes, you'll need the regulator and hose but if you have a propane system now all you'll need to do is extend the line to the living area and add a shut off and quick connect. I think you'll be well pleased with the amount of heat it puts out, set up a fan tho to keep it from getting layered by the ceiling, the key is to keep the air moving somewhat.

As we are not insulated yet cept for the factory stuff ,just want to make the Q Rally as warm and cozy for my better half on her first outing, or do you think the big Buddy will suffice?thanks

For OTR heat and A/c I kept the roof monster and keeps the bus 90 when it's 20 degrees going down the road...as for park heat we have a infra red "fireplace" and a additional infra red heater in the rear of the rig and they keep it about 70 degrees all the way into the mid 20's or so we have been getting since our arrival in Nashville. only problem i have is the damn floor is ALWAYS FREEZING!

Cold floors need rugs.
Go to the Rona/Zellers/Walmart/Sams/Costco/Lowes/Home Depot/box store of your choice.
Anything small, inexpensive, rubber backed, pattern you like.
Buy a bunch and spread them around.
Easy to carry outside to shake out the dirt. Easy to strategically position for those cold toes.
And you can put them away when not needed.
happy coaching!

Van, we've got 2 of the bigger heaters out at the skanee house, we never used over 2 pads at any given time with them so we quit buying the larger sizes. Avoiding the cold floors is why we insulated the floor too, it's also important to keep the air moving, it can get layered with the warmest air up by the ceiling and the coldest down by the floor, a fan will keep it stirred up. Just to give you an idea of what the heater I pointed out is able to do, right now I'm using one of the 10K heaters to heat jamies house and thats 2200 sq ft. Right now it's 4 degree's outside and 71 in the house, 66 at the furthest reach of the house, her house is a large old home built in 1881, i'm superinsulating it and putting in new windows, her furnace is a high efficiency model from the mid 90's but the little heater is blowing it away with the fuel sipping.

That's great to hear cody, thanks! I really didn't want to go back to CW for another one any way, besides Northern tool has a better price than CW if I do get another thanks and you continue to keep them warm up in your neck of the frozen north
