Standing with Standing Rock: What this Battle Means for the Dakotas
Watching the events unfold at Standing Rock has felt something like an out-of-body experience. I am seventeen hundred miles away, watching safely from my living room. But every picture and every story that comes out of Standing Rock hits with such impact that the great distance seems negligible.
I am a child of the Dakotas. I was born in North Dakota. I spent almost every holiday and summer in the Badlands of North Dakota, or with family in the Black Hills of South Dakota. When I was young, my family moved to the prairies of Saskatchewan, Canada, but we stayed close, just a few miles above the border. My childhood memories of the Dakotas and the Canadian prairies have blended, forming idyllic vignettes of golden sunsets, gorgeous but fierce…
F&ES Treks to Quito, Ecuador
by Jessica Leung
in Admissions, Alumni, Conferences, Diversity, Field Trips, Habitat III, The School
During the October fall break, a group of roughly 30 students from three Yale graduate schools (FES, School of Management, and Public Health) traveled to Quito, Ecuador. The majority of these students were FES-ers, who 1) attended the UN Habitat III conference as accredited stakeholders and 2) either presented research related to urban resilience or participated in a consultancy project.
The UN Habitat III conference was a unique occurrence. It is an event that only happens every 20 years, where national and subnational governments gather to discuss urban development. In this past Habitat, the New Urban Agenda was adopted. This is a guidance document that will dictate how urbanization will occur worldwide, and encompasses many areas including but not limited to social inclusion, ending poverty, environmentally sustainable…
El Dia de Los Muertos at FES
You may have noticed the ofrenda (altar) in Sage Lounge for El Dia de Muertos, (or El Dia de los Muertos) the Day of the Dead. EQUID students invite the FES community to share in this tradition.
During El Dia de Muertos (October 31st- November 2nd) it is said that the veil between the world of the living and the world of the dead is thin. Death is honored as a part of life, and the holiday is seen as a joyous opportunity to be reunited with those who have passed on.
During our formal opening of the altar on November 2nd, staff and students brought the names and memories of loved ones into the space, verbally, tacitly, or with small items placed on the altar. One FESer…
Meet the newest F&ES admissions student assistant
by Jolisa Brooks
in Admissions, Diversity
I'm Jolisa Brooks, and I'm delighted to be assisting in the F&ES Admission's Office. I'm a first year MESc with a research focus in environmental justice, political ecology and peace & conflict. Prior to matriculating to F&ES I was a Legislative Fellow for the US Congressional Committee on Foreign Affairs, where I worked on "Education for All Act 2016, "Women, Peace & Security 2016", "Power Africa", and a host of other international development policies. In the short time that I've been at Yale I've already fallen in love with F&ES and I can't wait to encourage and assist prospective students in their application journeys.
What are the Terms? A look at key terms in the Diversity and Inclusion Conversation
Welcome to the 2016-2017 academic year! As we happily welcome the MODsters to New Haven we want to be sure to set the stage for conversations on Diversity, Inclusion and Equity on campus and were able to do so during the first week of MODS with the help of the Center for Whole Communities. I was lucky to join Kavitha, Delma and Samara, three amazing facilitators, at Great Mountain Forest for the first of these sessions on community inclusion and I was blow away by the insight of the FES community. Everyone's commitment to exploring topics of diversity and inclusion left me both excited for the conversations to come and reflective of my personal impact. For those unable to attend, I would recommend exploring the resources that Maclovia Quintana (the…
Cultural Competence
As race, sexual orientation and identity continue to be addressed in our media I wanted to take the opportunity to talk a little bit about cultural competence and what we can all to do become more aware of the experiences of those around us. As the newest staff EQUID committee member I have begun gathering resources for our community, many of which are posted below or available in Sage Hall on campus. While our blog typically focuses on F&ES news and updates or issues related to the environmental field, this is an topic that applies to all people in all industries and is something that we want to make sure our community is continually thinking about.

Cultural competence is understanding your own cultural identity and…

International TGIF 2015
by Lun Ou
in Admissions, Diversity, The School
FES is a very culturally diverse community. We have 97 international students representing 39 countries. If we list all the holidays of the countries that people are from, almost everyday is a public holiday.
If you are an FESer, you should not miss every week's social event, TGIF (Thank God I'm a Forester). Yes, instead of celebrating Friday, we celebrate being Tree Huggers! And especially don't miss the international TGIF, an annual event to present and celebrate multiculturalism in our community!
On Oct. 16th, international TGIF kicked off at 5:30pm. We had 34 countries represented. 44 national flags were hung around Bowers Auditorium. 853 photos were collected from our international student community and presented in a 27-minute long slide show. 184 songs from all over the world were…
Can You Please Repeat That?
At F&ES, when professors say they are teaching a certain topic or skill "that will be useful to you in the real world," it's a reminder that we are here not just to learn technical information, but to develop the capabilities we need to work in dynamic settings.
Since the beginning of MODS and well into the school year, I have worked in many groups and this is not a coincidence. By design, our classes and extracurricular activities require us to work together to solve problems, be it small or large. The expectation is that by training us in this setting, we will be ready to dive right into any professional team environment after graduation.
Recently, I have realized this training has taught me more than just working…
Diverse Events at Yale F&ES
by Katherine Wolf
in Admissions, Diversity, The School
As a first-year MESc ('17) student and member of the EQUID (Equity, Inclusion, and Diversity) Committee here at Yale F&ES, I can tell you that we've had a busy few weeks here on campus. A sample of some recent F&ES diversity-related activities you might have missed:
Reverend Lennox Yearwood and the Hip-Hop Caucus
On Tuesday, September 29, Reverend Lennox Yearwood Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of the Hip Hop Caucus, spoke in Burke Auditorium as part of the F&ES speaker series Diverse Voices: Environmental Leaders on Climate Change. In a rousing sermon that inspired a standing ovation, Reverend Yearwood drew connections for the audience among energy generation from fossil fuels, racist responses to natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina, asthma and air pollution in communities of color…

I still wear a bandaid over the nail bed while at work because there is still some very slight drainage from the nail, which is normal. I can finally take a shower without the bandaid without the pounding of the water on the exposed nail bed being too painful.

Indeed, my humble impression, is that what Madame Katrina made more evident
is the issue of the lack of social justice. But, from compasion to a real
endorsement of new policies there is a huge step and, my pessimistic
prediction, is that, when voting, people will care more about taxation and
oil prices than social security, education and environment. And, who knows,
maybe nobody will remember that there is a war going on up there in iraq.

CyHi Da Prynce, Thurz, Project Pat & More Rock DJBooth's ATL Indie Fest Stage
By JRTheWriter | Posted August 8, 2011
Atlanta, Ga. -- While the South has produced some of the most prominent emcees of the past few years, nowhere seems more like a goldmine than the Mecca of the south, Atlanta. As hundreds of Hip-Hop lovers and artists came together for DJBooth's stage at the ATL Indie Hip-Hop Fest, the DJ set the tempo early playing some of that classic Outkast to get the southern spirit in the atmosphere.
As the rain started failing outside, more people ran into the building to hear some of the A's exciting upcomers like Jarren Benton, The Dreamer (from Hollyweerd), a planking Grip Playaz, and many more. Whether people were "cooking" to Jarren Benton's "Justin Bieber," dancing to a dubstep remixed version of Grip's "Jockin," or getting heavy to west coaster Thurz' "Los Angeles," there wasn't one dull moment for the assembled Hip-Hop enthusiasts.
As the night went on, Jackie Chain kept the crowd "Rollin" as he set up the stage for some other southerner's to rep their states. One of the hypest was Project Pat, as he put some south in our mouths with classics like, "Chicken Head," "Raised in the Projects," and many more. While other artists rocked the basement of the club like Sean Falyon and J*Davey, the crowd gave great "Southern Hospitality" as the windy city wind blew in emcee GLC. After performing his classics, the tavern had finally reached its capacity, as Cyhi The Prynce took the stage for the final performance. As a reoccurring member of the Indie Fest, Cyhi gave encouraging words to all the fellow artists, saying he was once in the same position they were and in - now he's traveling the world with Ye. After a monstrous set, you realized that the South is putting their mark on Hip-Hop with not just talent, but with all the support and dedication the fans and artists have for one another. Our sincere thanks to all of the fans and artists who showed up to rock with DJBooth.

text: Lately, every time I startup or re-boot my phone, I get the following error message right after startup: This happens each and every time I turn my phone on - every single time. I get this message - every single time. I'd like to know if anyone else with the Sprint HTC Hero is having this problem? I don't know if this is: 1) a problem with my phone 2) a problem with the GV App 3) a problem related to the Sprint HTC Hero 4) a problem with Android 1.6.xxx (or whatever version we have now) not being compatible with the latest GV app Please provide input. I don't see any related posts on this matter and I hope to get this matter resolved, or at least know the source or information on this issue. After hitting the "Force Close" button (for which I have no choice to get to the main scene desktop), once I select (or start running) the GV App by tapping on the GV App icon, everything appears to be fine and in working order. In other words, I only get the error message upon startup. EDIT: My initial guess here is that this started after the last GV App update. I'm not sure uninstalling, and re-installing, will help here. If you have the GV App on your Sprint HTC Hero, please indicate if you are, or are not, having this error message upon startup. .

Best of 2015: Top five moments
Joe thanks the fans and hugs the badge
"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."
A goalkeeping 'phenomenon', that late goal feeling, Club milestones and more make up mcfc.co.uk journalist Paul Handler's five moments to remember from 2015…
The first part of 2015 was, broadly speaking, a tough one from a football point of view. There was a fine Premier League finale with six successive wins, but ultimately no silverware. One performance sticks in the mind though, that of goalkeeper Joe Hart in the 1-0 defeat at Barcelona in the Champions League. Afterwards world great Lionel Messi called City and England's number one a 'phenomenon'. Praise doesn't come any higher than that and it's a fitting tribute to Hart's consistent brilliance over the year.
South Stand opening: a new high
Everything came together for City's first home game of the 2015/16 Premier League campaign. The soaring South Stand was completed in time for the match against last season's champions and stretched the Etihad Stadium's capacity to over 55,000. The extra stand height and fan noise electrified the atmosphere, with chants tumbling down onto the pitch… it was loud! The players responded and blew Chelsea away. Yet another milestone in the Club's history was chalked off in style.
Kelechi clips Eagles' wings
There are few things sweeter in football than a late goal and Kelechi Iheanacho's instant impact at Crystal Palace takes some beating. Thrown on in the 89th minute, the young Nigerian sprung onto a half-chance to prod goalwards and maintain City's early 100 per cent record. The winner summed Iheanacho up, a genuine striker with a hunger for goals. He has since followed it up with three more to underline his huge potential. Bring on 2016!
De Bruyne denouement
City have made a habit of scoring late goals this season but this one felt like a turning point in Group D for Pellegrini's side. Kevin De Bruyne was looking every inch the Club's record signing - his 91st minute goal was his fifth in seven games - and a major piece of the early season jigsaw puzzle had been slotted into place.
Not Barcelona
Ever since the 2008 takeover City have been making major strides on and off the pitch - topping Group D felt like another one. There was to be no Barcelona reunion in the last 16, with the Blues earning what looks a more favourable draw on paper against Dynamo Kiev. At the start of matchday six City that outcome looked unlikely but Manuel Pellegrini's men did their bit, Sevilla did theirs against Juve and the so-called Group of Death was buried. Now the key question for 2016 - can City make it count?

The Los Angeles Dodgers lead the National League West but have been struggling lately. The Dodgers finally snapped a five game slide with a 5-1 win at Great American Ball Park on Tuesday night. Alex Wood improved to 9-8 with the lone run scored on four hits and three BB over 5.2 frames. The offense did not waste the effort with seven hits and a trio of walks with Jimmy Rollins and Justin Turner going deep and knocking in a pair of runs each. Left hander Brett Anderson draws Wednesday's start against the Reds for the second time in two weeks. Anderson comes off of a 3-0 loss at Houston with all three runs scored on seven hits in six frames.
USA TODAY Sports
The Cincinnati Reds have been struggling to score runs and the wins have been difficult to come by. The Reds dropped another and have lost ten of eleven with the bats unable to get going. Starter John Lamb gave up three runs in five frames with Ryan Mattheus allowing two runs through two innings. The offense managed seven hits and walked five times with Todd Frazier doubling in Brandon Phillips but the key hit was missing on several occasions. David Holmberg looks notch his second win of the season when he faces the Dodgers for the second time. Holmberg has struggled the last two times out with 12 runs scored on 16 hits over seven frames.
The Dodgers are 0-8 in their last 8 road games and the under is 7-1 in their last 8 Wednesday games while the Dodgers are 7-1 in their last 8 Wednesday games. Cincinnati are 1-8 in their last 9 home games and the over is 7-2 in their last 9 games as an underdog while the Reds are 5-16 in their last 21 overall. The under is 15-7-1 in the last 21 meetings. I don't know what we'll see from Holmberg which is a worry with a Dodgers squad who isn't good on the road…

She went from leaving alone, to leaving hand in hand with him.

So for today's birthday edition of Tutorial Tuesday, I'm making a super easy felt crown/tiara - because every birthday girl deserves to feel like a princess, right? (even the ones who are turning 22...)
What you'll need
- an 8" x 4" piece of felt (any color)
- 2 pipe cleaners (or possibly 3 if you're making this for an adult-sized head)
- scissors
- a hot glue gun
- First you'll want to fold the felt in half (the long way - or so it measures 8x2 when folded) and cut triangles out of the top as shown. It should work best to have three points at the top, but you can make it however you like :)
- Then you'll glue the two sides of the felt together by lining up the points. Do not glue the middle where it is folded.
- Attach the two (or three) pipe cleaners to each other end to end, and slide them through the center of the crown.
- Twist it together in the back and enjoy!

As recently as the 1980s, all residential building disputes in Victoria had to be resolved through arbitration under the jurisdiction of the Commercial Arbitration Act.
Then, in a complete reversal, the 90s saw arbitration clauses banned – yes banned – in residential disputes throughout New South Wales and Victoria under the Domestic Building Contracts Act, though arbitration remains an option in commercial disputes in these states and arbitration is still allowed in residential as well as commercial disputes in the ACT.
So why has arbitration fallen out of favour? There are a number of reasons. First, with arbitrator fees ranging between $3,000 and $8,000 per day, arbitration is an expensive process compared with courts or tribunals, where litigants are not required to pay for judges or tribunal members (though court filing fees and interlocutory fees are on the rise).
A second area of concern revolves around the remuneration structure of arbitrators (daily rates as opposed to fixed salaries), which some critics say reduces the incentive for them to resolve disputes in a timely manner. As employees of the Crown, by contrast, judges and tribunal members (the latter of which enjoy permanent tenure) have no reason to prolong cases, especially given the document intensive – and, rather dull – nature of these cases.
Furthermore, others argue the arbitration system is exposed to conflicts of interest, especially as arbitrators are neither lawyers nor barristers. In my view, "the jury is out" on this, and I have never personally observed any form of partisanship on the part of an arbitrator – though admittedly some consumers are understandably squeamish when they learn the appointed arbitrator is in fact a retired builder.
That said, arbitration does have one significant limitation. Whereas Courts and Tribunals allow for consolidated multi-party proceedings involving a range of actors, arbitration does not.
Under arbitration, the client can take action only against the contractor and only under the terms of the contract, meaning that separate action would have to be taken against any other parties - such as architects or sub-contractors - to the extent these parties shared partial responsibility for the alleged problems. This can lead to multiple proceedings which are more expensive than would have otherwise have been the case under a consolidated action in a tribunal or court.
The bottom line is that arbitration has a number of problems which have led to its demise. Arbitration is, however, more useful when it comes to international disputes, whereby parties to the dispute are often multi-national joint venture partners who feel more comfortable nominating arbitration hubs and using hand-picked arbitrators. This is especially the case in complex disputes involving large corporations, where the cost of employing arbitrators is not usually significant in the context of the scope of the dispute or the amounts of money involved.
This is a great question, Although not practising in Australia could it be for the same reason it has fallen out of favour in the UK. The lawyers got hold of it and made it too expensive.
Or could it be that the parties expect the arbitrator to sort out a blizzard of paper and are surprised when he charges for it.
In the UK we are on the back foot in terms of arbitration but slowly and surly as new arbitrators come on line people are realising the art is get the right arbitrator (discipline), for the right dispute.
In the Uk, as in Australia, we also have the advent of adjudication which whilst originally intended to provide an interim decision on disputes in construction matters has often led to a final determination on a practical basis because the adjudicator's decision is not challenged in other proceedings.
I believe your logic in costs is exactly right.
But I also believe the legal fraternity is more than a little responsible.
There are plenty of well qualified Arbitrators that do not charge the type of fees nominated.
The appointment of Arbitrators seems to revolve those that have spent their careers with the 6 minute block time sheets and hence those that see and believe Arbitration as a form of ADR that should be fast and economical don't get to play in the game.
The use and success of Adjudication in the construction industry despite the noise from the legal fraternity that it lacked justice.
There is scope for the use of fast track Arbitration but how much support does it get from those that would suffer reduced fees.
I absolutely understand the need to make money nobody is suggesting that costs should not be recovered.
The head of a major construction company once said to me, if we shear the sheep we can come back time after time and shear it again, but once we skin it that it is all over.
Maybe more in the legal fraternity should look to those using ADR as ongoing clients and not see ADR as a private mirror of the courts and actively seek to get an outcome were the costs match the event.
Disputes are always going to happen in the construction industry, they will come by the very nature of the business, that being the case those involve see them as a cost of doing business and hence commercial pressure says that you take the most economical means of resolving the issues at hand.

Now that winter is here and you already know how Delhi winters are. Winter months can put your hair and scalp under a lot of stress. My hair starts becoming weak and becomes more susceptible to damage and breakage, I am sure this must be the case with all of us. It becomes very important for us to take care of our skin as well as hair. Here are five hair care tips which I follow and will also help you to maintain healthy and beautiful hair this season.
1. Keep your hair and scalp hydrated:
Go for deep conditioning once a week. Use coconut oil or any hair oil which suits you to massage your scalp and leave it on for 2-3 hours or overnight as time permits. There are also ready-made hair masques available in the market, you can try that too. If you're dehydrated on the inside, it will show on the outside too so make sure you
Go for good shampoo and conditioner which doesn't dry out your scalp. You can try using anti-hair fall shampoos like Hair for Sure , Pantene etc. to prevent hair fall in winters. Drink plenty of water to help keep your hair and scalp hydrated.
2. Protect your hair from the elements:
Cold, wet winter weather can take its toll on your hair. Cover your head with a scarf or wear a beanie to protect. To protect from static, which is caused by rubbing plastic or wool against your hair, it is advisable to cover your hair in a silk scarf before putting on your cozy beanie or cap.
3. Avoid over-styling your hair :
Limit the use of hair styling tools like straighteners , curling iron and hair dryers. Heat can dry out your hair and scalp, increasing the risk of damage. Apply heat protectants before you style your hair and invest in good hair mask which can repair your damaged hair due to heat.
4. Wash your hair in warm or cool water :
You might be tempted to use hot water looking at the chill, but try to avoid washing your hair in very hot water. It damages your scalp and hair, and leads to dandruff. Hot water destroys the moisture and texture of your hair, it takes away the natural oil. It is recommended to use warm or cool water to avoid damage and also you can keep washing your hair to a minimum, say two times a week, this will prevent your hair from drying out too much.
5. Trim your hair regularly:
Just because it's winter that doesn't mean that you do not get your hair trimmed. Trims are a great way to keep your hair in good health during the winter months as well – every six to eight weeks, just get a light dusting of the ends to help reduce the chance of dry, splitting ends.
These are the five hair care tips for winters based on personal experience. To protect your skin always keep a bottle of vaseline handy, you can use it in 10 different ways. Hope you find this useful too!

Christmas Treasure #2
Today I am going to show you another treasure I got for Christmas.
I don't know how you all are regarding "in the box" or "out of the box" but with fashions, for me, they are always out of the box. When I got this I exclaimed "I can't wait to get this on a doll!" And my mom said "I knew you would say that" :) She knows me too well.
But how cute is this? We see a lot of Bride Barbie's with short sleeves or strapless gowns but (for me anyway) I have not come across a whole ton of winter bride fashions.
The snowflake? So cute!
So now the challenge is which doll to put it on? I have a bride doll but she is the newer body type. Fashion Avenue is definitely made for the old body type so I had to choose one from the doll box.
Here she is!
The most beautiful Sweet Roses PJ!
I do have her original outfit so I might switch her out someday but for now, she will be the most perfect winter bride ever!
Poor PJ has a broken neck but that did not deter me from giving her the hair treatment she most desperately needed. Those curls don't do well under neglect! However my hubby did make some kind of comment about their being a doll head sans body on the bathroom counter. :)
We also got a new camera for Christmas so this was the perfect time to give it a whirl with my doll photos. Here is PJ all ready for her photo shoot!
She is so pretty. The crushed velvet skirt is perfect!
The outfit is MUCH better out of the box, don't you think? I do have to say this was a challenge to get on the doll. The sleeves wrapped in faux fur made a tight fit for the hands. Her thumb kept getting caught. Then while I was fiddling with getting her hands in the dress, the velcro on the top got stuck to the satin and snagged it a little. (grumble) This definitely is a "leave it on the doll" type of dress.
But again, the snowflake is so adorable on this dress!
Dolls with broken necks are so hard to position. I had to fix the head so it looked like she had a neck while not displaying the cracks. I think it turned out okay! Besides, who can't fall in love with the Steffie mold PJ dolls?
The bouquet also has that adorable snowflake.
I love when shoes have a little detail. For a bride doll I would hope they would! A cute bow adds well to the overall elegance.
The veil needed a little fixing. It was hard to get it to stay on the head and then after being in a box all these years, it kind of stuck out at an odd angle. She sat on my desk for a couple of days so the tulle could mold to her head. Looks okay now!
I just love her in this dress. So so pretty.
And the pictures definitely turned out better too, do you think so?
Any of you have this outfit? Which doll did you put it on? Share comments and/or pics in the comments section!
My next couple of posts will feature snowflake dolls and maybe, just maybe, might have another bride doll. ;)
Until next time!

You did a good Job on PJ. The dress makes her a very lovely winter bride.
You are right about the rarity of bridal outfits for winter. So far I managed to add three of them to my collection, including this one. The other two are mod era fashions.
Long sleeves can be a pita to get on dolls, it can be totally nerve wrecking on the splayed fingers of modern Barbie hands. But there is neat trick: take a narrow plastic bag and slip it over the dolls arm, dress the doll and pull off the bag. If you have one of those little vacuum-bagging appliances, you can make very narrow bags for arms or legs. Yes, legs as well. Ever tried to get narrow pants on rubber legs? The bag trick works here as well.

Andrea, do you have pics? I would love to see the mod era fashions!!!
The bag trick, genius! Legs are the worst. I remember trying to get the pants from Secret Spells Barbie and the "Funky in Philly" FA on a doll. Ugh! I am so going to try this. Thanks!!
- January 14, 2014 at 12:41 PM
I think that dress looks darling on that doll! You did a great job with that! My favourite part of the entire thing are the snowflakes! They add a great deal of winter simplicity to the dress. Beautiful!
Those snowflakes have been very popular on gowns for dolls. You can find them in numerous amounts of colours. I have two dolls with snowflakes like those. One doll is the 'Two Thousand Special Edition Holiday Barbie' which has silver snowflakes and the 'Nineteen Ninety-Six Special Edition Happy Holidays Barbie' which has one gold snowflake on her hat.
I just picked up the ninety-six holiday Barbie today actually at Goodwill. My mum had found her in the pile of toys. She is missing her muff for her hands and her shoes (if there were any.) I just think she is beautiful and can't take my eyes off of her! The snowflake again is my favourite part of the outfit.
I think the pictures turned out great! I will definitely take Andrea's advice about using the bag. I have so much trouble with that as well. Thank you both for your help and inspiration! I can't be more grateful! :)

Thank you very much! :)
I too love snowflakes...and stars. Which is why Superstar Barbie is one of my all time favorite dolls.
Congrats on finding that doll! Definitely needed a good home, such a pretty doll. I wrote a post about her here
And also a post about the 2000 Special Edition Celebration Barbie. http://mybarbieblog.blogspot.com/2012/12/day-12-glorious-gold-2000-celebration.html
Both do have the cuteness of the snowflakes! You'll also just LOVE the snowflakes on this doll :) http://mybarbieblog.blogspot.com/2012/12/day-21-striking-silver-2008-holiday.html

I'm in the process of reorganizing my doll room. What madness made me start that task again? It totally escapes me in the middle of the chaos I created so far. As you might have guessed already, both dresses are on dolls in one of my cabinets. Yes, the one where most of the boxes are stacked up in front. So I can't take new pics right now, but I have one of 1969 Winter Wedding # 1880 that was taken after I found it on a fleamarket. It originally had a off whte color, but most of these turned dark ivory over the years. I would try to clean it, if I knew for sure it wouldn't destroy the fabric or the fur.
The other one is 1971 Bridal Brocade # 3417, which is one of my childhood treasures. Whenever someone asked me, what I wanted for my birthday, the answe was Bridal Bouquet. I's a wonder I didn't receive duplicates. You can see it here:

I absolutely love that doll, I have a version but she needs a reroot, and I don't know when I'll get round to it ... she looks great in that dress! I have a Fashion Avenue jumper that is white velvet with snowflakes, I wonder if they did a series with this theme then?
- January 18, 2014 at 2:15 PM
- Forestminuet said...
Andrea, those are AMAZING dresses!! I especially love the last one you posted. So pretty. I need to find some more mod era fashions. They are just so cool. :) But I know what you mean by the doll room reorganization. I don't know why but I've been itching to redo mine as well :)
Barbielea - Thank you very much! I would love to see your reroot when you get it finished. Thinking of going with the same style or changing her up a bit?
The winter jumper would be so cute! I'll have to search for it. I wonder if anyone knows if they did a "winter" FA theme. I should search and see. :)

- barbiebeauties said...
I can't decide ... She's had quite a severe haircut and at first I was going to reroot her in fantasy pink and red to go with the rose theme (and because I'll never be able to afford a Tarina Tarantino :)) but her dark blonde colour is so nice and unusual, I'm thinking of keeping it (I might just add one little pink streak, as an "I was here" ... I'll see)

Hi Teresa!
I recently found your blog and have been reading the archives and haven't quite finished them all yet so I don't know if my hint for getting clothes on rubber leg Barbies has been mentioned. Pour a small amount of baby powder or any kind of talcum powder in your palm and with the fingers of your other hand, smooth the powder around a bit. Then with both hands, rub the powder all over Barbie's legs. The powder takes away the 'stickiness' of the rubber and does not damage the doll. It will make the legs just a shade lighter depending on how much you use but it will eventually wear off so there won't be any lasting effects.
Love your blog and enjoy seeing what you find at the thrift stores and the info readers are able to contribute.
Teresa F.

Welcome Teresa! (By the way, you spell your name correctly, haha, I'm a Teresa too!)
Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately I don't have any powder handy but I'm thinking of picking up some just for that purpose. I have another doll with a case of the "sticky old vinyl" legs so I need to fix her up soon.
Again thanks for stopping by and feel free to leave comments even on really old posts. I do reply to every one! :)

For a few decades now, social scientists and researchers have become increasingly aware of what's known as the question-behavior effect. Also called the self-prophecy effect, this phenomenon was validated most famously in a 1987 study that found voter participation increased when respondents were asked whether they planned to vote. The effect is that when you ask someone to predict their behavior, they tend to not only answer in a socially acceptable way, but also perform the very action you're inquiring about. In order to be viewed in a favorable light, people will respond that they would act in whatever way is perceived as most decent by society, and even behave accordingly. Essentially, asking a person about their behavior has the potential to influence it in the future. So what does this mean for market research?
Ask and You Shall Receive… a Self-Conscious Answer
In truth, market research has already been shown to affect consumer behavior. A 1993 study revealed that responses detailing purchase intent can indeed help predict behavior, due to a marked increase in subsequent purchasing rate. Simply asking these participants about their intent to purchase actually increased their likelihood to purchase in the near future.
But the study also articulated that a number of factors can influence this translation from intention to behavior. So how does asking questions influence the mental outlook that drives behavior? One explanation is that answering a question about our intentions or behavior makes our related attitudes more accessible in our minds, causing us to relate the behavior that aligns with our socially conditioned attitudes. This account ties in with the familiar bias of social desirability, which is a common symptom of traditional focus groups in which respondents hear each other's answers. Another theory is that questioning our behavior simply causes us to think about performing it, making us more likely to actually do it in the future.
So Is All My Research Doomed?
Hardly! You can't fight psychology, and you need to ask questions in order to acquire consumer insights. Asking people about performing a target behavior always has the potential to influence their future performance of that behavior, so this bias should always be factored into your research report: it can help prepare stakeholders and colleagues for this phenomenon's impact on your analysis. But there is one option that may help you reduce its impact, and that's online market research. Allowing for digital responses with relative anonymity may put respondents more at ease and willing to answer the way they will truly behave, as opposed to the response they might give if they felt personally judged by others, inducing research-influenced behavior.
We've always known that there are any number of factors that can influence your research and skew your results. But being aware of and acknowledging their potential impact will help you adapt to and avoid their more harmful effects. For an example of the thoughtful and honest answers an online research group can provide, check out the executive summary below, exploring the attitudes of Millennials and non-Millennials towards digital banking.

A teaser for Goemon, the new film from Kazuaki Kiriya, director of the unwatchable Casshern, doesn't tell us much about the story. It's clear that the movie will be a mix of live action and CG, the same style in which Casshern was made. However, it's looking like armies of ninjas will be involved and that's never a bad thing.

David Lerner Associates: Cyber Thieves Target Men More than Women
Core Facts
A new report from the Economic and Cyber Crime Prevention Centre of The City of London Police claims that men are ripped off three times as much as women.
The report reveals who is getting targeted, where they live, and how they're getting conned. It covers crimes reported between November 2014 and October 2015. That comprises over 15,000 victims of cybercrime and fraud.
The crimes were focused mainly on individuals (85%) as opposed to businesses (15%). And while crimes were mainly aimed at both genders between 40-49 years old, the picture changes when relating to fraud, which targeted ages 60-69.
Women aren't losing as much money as men, but they're prone to be 'pickpocketed' when they go shopping online. They're six times more likely to be targeted by online shopping and auction fraud than men.
The report also shows that about 50% of victims (regardless of gender) have been victims in the past.
In the U.S., as well as abroad, women have to deal with online stalking and the general misogyny and poor treatment that online anonymity provides for the perpetrators. And it occurs in quantities far greater than men. But it appears that when it comes to finances, as described above, men are worse off in terms of dollar amounts.
There are several tools out there to avoid and prevent cybercrime and fraud. Knowing the tell-tale signs of a scam will also help you stay safe, so education is a key factor.
Always think before you click on a link or file of unknown origin. Don't feel pressured by any emails. Check the source of the message. When in doubt, verify the source. Even if you receive an email from a known person, and are suspect of the contents, it's far easier to call them and ask "Did you send this to me?" to find out whether or not their email was hacked. Never reply to emails that ask you to verify your information or confirm your user ID or password.
There are many things you can do to stay safe from the digital bad guys. Using strong passwords, secure your computer, installing the latest operating system updates, protecting your data with encryption or passwords, and securing your wireless network are just a few things that can be done.

7 Green Light Auto Sales Consumer Reviews and Complaints
I felt great about my experience right up until I bought the car. Todd was charming and helpful and attentive. They promised to make the car look like new and even replace the front grille. Then I signed the paperwork and put money down. Then Todd stopped being so attentive and I was lucky to get any response at all. They couldn't even be bothered to put gas in the tank before giving me the keys. I barely made it to a gas station after driving off the lot. They had the car for almost 5 full days after I purchased it, but never even cleaned the bird crap off that happened on their lot! Never cleaned the interior. Never did get that front grille.
But worst of all, they failed to mention or notice that the ROTORS WERE COMPLETELY WARPED AND BRAKE PADS COMPLETELY WORN AWAY! I now owe over $1000 in repairs on the brakes, wiper fluids, and tires. And it needs an oil change! They claim to do a "52-point inspection" on every car and only sell those that pass with flying colors but that is clearly bogus at best or woefully negligent at worst. Oh and the loaner car they gave me while they were "working" on mine? Rattled like a death trip and was screaming "0% Oil Life" on the dash and of course, had next to no gas when they gave it to me. How generous of them! Be very careful if you buy anything from these people and prepare to be ignored as soon as you sign on the dotted line. This entire process has been an absolute nightmare with a four figure price tag.
I cancelled my policy right after it was complete because their services was not something I required. They still charged my account. They are a fraudulent company. They neglect to tell you important information in your policy such as specifics to cancel your policy. Since I didn't even receive their so-called certified delivered packet regarding my policy I didn't not know the protocol to cancel my policy. They never answer their customer service call. You can call at 11, 12, 1 or 2 and they won't answer.
This company is not professional. They will hang up on you and when there is only one customer service manager to speak with shows this company does not have the required people to run a business. I called to cancel my policy they could have told me then what to do but they didn't they said a rep would call me back but that never happened either. Small town business that doesn't know how operate or treat customers with respect. Would never recommend to my worst energy. Money hungry and a fraudulent company.
I purchased a 1985 Mercedes 380 SL in Oct 2008. A/C was not working and Al and the finance manager said there was no need for a due bill as this will be fixed and delivered. When the car was delivered, A/C was not working. Next morning, I called and went back to them and they refused to do anything. After a heated altercation, Al said he would take care of it.
Needless to say, the car was with them for 5 days and nothing was done. I had to get the A/C fixed at a cost of over 15,000 dollars. Later, I received a letter from DMV indicating that the check for 15 dollars given by the dealership bounced and the bond had depleted so I had to pay the same. I complained to DMV in May 2009 and it is still being investigated. The dealership seems to have shut the doors now. I still cannot get the car registered as the pink slip has not been sent to DMV and dealership will not answer any of my requests.
Just a reminder, they probably have a location in Encino also. So be aware of this. I can't drive the car, junk it or sell it. Wonder what I can do now.
The first complaint: In March 2009 I purchased a 2003 Ford Expedition. A $3500.00 was given as a deposit along with a trade in of a 2000 Mercury Cougar with a balance of $6000.00 owed to Fireside Bank. Included in the contract was an agreement that the trade-off would be paid. This agreement was never fulfilled by "Green Light Auto Sales".
The second complaint: A verbal agreement was made to improve the physical condition of the suv, a paint touch-up, missing parts to the side panel, and any engine work that may be needed(this information may/should be included in the do bill).
The third complaint: In October 2009 the Ford Expedition began to make a noise, the suv was taken in for a diagnosis. The assistant manager Vince checked it out and determined it was a problem with the engine; which is covered under extended warranty that was purchased during the sale. It was recommoneded that the suv was left at the dealership for their machanic to look at(the suv was left 10/3/09). I was told to check back Tuesday for the return of the car or a loaner.
When I called Tuesday to check the status of the suv, the owner Al said the warranty had expired and the bill for the repairs are $1600.00. Al said he would do us a favor by paying half of the expenses but I would need to come up with the remaining balance but, I would be able to pay him in installments. Once the repairs were completed on the suv the owner Al said I need to pay the full remaining amount of $800.00 before getting the vehicle back (this was not the agreement).
Firstbank has not been paid and is threatening reposession on the Mercury Cougar. The suv body repairs have not been repaired. I believe the warranaty have not expired and the problems with the vehicle were issues known by the salesperson/owner/employees during the sale.
I bought a 2003 Kia Spectra from this company and they say they sold it to me with a clean title. I've only had the car for 7 months and had to take it in for a tune-up. During this process of the tune-up, I had a diagnostic done as well. The quality tune and lube shop informed me that I had a cracked cylinder and that it would take thousands to get fixed, thousands that is worth more than the car is worth. I went to try and keep the loan and trade in the vehicle, but the sales manager that I dealt with, Sam **, told me that they would not be able to do it and that I take what I signed for. So I'm stuck with a car that I can barely pay to get fixed as well as keep up payments.

I bought a 2002 lancer es that was converted to a raliart. The first problem was the battery was placed in the trunk and was not mounted correctly and I heard something in the trunk being thrown around I pulled over opened the trunk and a ploom of smoke arose and I had a melted wire that I was told that it could of lit the gas tank on fire. Thank god it didn't do that. I had them tow it and fix the problem which they did. I know need to do the brakes but I can't because there are wheel locks on there I called them up for the key but they don't I went to 10 speciality shops to find the key no one has one and they don't know who makes it then I found out that the car wouldn't accelerate because the fuel pump went bad.
I bought a car from them a 95 merc benz S320 on 10165 and at that time i also bought the warranty 18 month 18000 miles from then threw a company called (Prco) (800-388-7726,Kim)this warranty coverd my engine and transmission as well as the brakes and other componats on the car well after i picked up the car i noticed that it was not shifting right and i called green light as i was driving home and told them and they said that the car has been sitting drive it for a few day it should be ok so i did well about a week later 10235 its still doing the same thing and i called green light back and i was told that the person i needed to talk to was not there so i left my number and name and after about a week 1029 still no call so took my car to the transmission shop and i was told i needed about 3200.00 of repairs to the transmission so i call the warranty company (Prco)to file a claim and they said that they didnt have any Mecanical warranty on my car all they have is the Gap insurance on my car so i called Green Light back and asked them why i didnt have a warranty and they told me that once agian the person i needed to talk to was not there so i left my number and no one called me back three days later i called again and finally got some one name micheal i asked him why i didnt have a warranty on my car and he told me that i didnt have a warrany because i have not finished paying the down payment .and i asked him what dose that have to do with any thing no one told me that i had to finish paying the down payment before my warranty was in affect so the next day i payed the balance of the down payment and they Micheal said he would send over my warranty paper work to (Prco)and he said to give it about 2 or 3 days .
So i waited and called Micheal back but he was not there so i called (Prco) and still there was no warranty so i called Green Light and talk to Amire and he told me that he would have my car picked up and taken to there auto shop for them to look at it and i said is it a Merc Benz shop and he said yes . so he came and got the car and took it there and the manger of the shop called me 2 days later and said that thats just the way that the car is so i said i will be there so we can drive it together so i went up there and took a drive with him when i got there i noticed that my driver seat had grease on it and the door did too . i was upset because i had just had the seats redone as we was driving he said yes its shifting hard and a little late but thats just the way these cars are and i told him no it should not shift like that . well i noticed that this so called shop was not a shop it was a smog station and they dont do Merc Benz so i took my car and took it home and parked it i then called micheal and told him about what happen at the shop he took my car to and he said that his mechanic said that there was nothing wrong with the car it was shifting late and ticking but thats just the way they are .
so he was not going to do any thing to fix it . and i said to him what about my warranty that i payed for why wont you send over the money and my paper work to the warranty company that i payed for and i can get my car fixed . and he said that he sent it over but it taked about 30 to 45 days before it takes affect so i called (Prco ) back and they said (Kim) that it only takes about 2 hours after they fax over the contract to take affect and they bill them later . So i called Green Light back and Micheal said that they was not going to do any thing and that i am to stop calling .

(Ep3mis1) Why mistakes in jazz are possible.
Revision as of 23:04, 14 August 2016 by Dr.davidcring (Talk | contribs)
- The Mistakes page has already established with arguments, as well as with a list of actual types of mistakes, that mistakes can and do occur when performing jazz. The question on this page asks for an accounting as to why as well as how this is even possible.
- What is required for a mistake to be possible? The answer is that there must already be an established criteria that contrasts with any mistake against which the mistake concerned is judged to count as a mistake. There must exist criteria of correctness such that this particular event failed to conform to that standard thereby being out of compliance. Hence, relative to this particular standard the non-compliant event counts as a mistake.
- Now think of how many standard practices there are when playing jazz. The reason it is such an enervating and challenging musical environment is precisely because there are so many standard playing practices and conventions. For example, Thelonious Monk did not like how Miles Davis played a song that Monk had written, but Miles's version of how to play the song became the more standard way to play the bridge, or whatever it was. (Reference needed). So, is Miles making a mistake? It is relative to what frame of reference you wish to use. Relative to the musical score, and the composer of the song, the answer would be yes because Miles 'is playing it wrong.' Perhaps, though, Miles is recomposing at that point that Monk doesn't like as to how to play this section of the song, and if this becomes the standard way amongst musicians who perform the song to play it, then it is no longer a mistake regarding standard practices regarding the playing of this particular song.
- The conclusion is supportive of the main point that mistakes can only be judged against some particular standards of correctness.
- Can there be bad completely free jazz improvisations? The answer is a resounding "Yes there can!"
- It is not as if each free improvisation is as good as any other free improvisation. Even when there are LESS rules to conform to, there is much that can be critiqued as both good and bad in such improvisations. Here it may be less clear during a bad improvisation that a mistake has been made, but arguably one could correctly claim that "at this point in Fred's free improvisation he made a mistake in playing this note for an hour." This doesn't seem that out of the ordinary and seems like an acceptable use of the word "mistake."
