Game Description:
Jump into Amazing Pyramids and lead a group of scientists through exciting minigames and jumbled letters in the Saharan desert!
AFERON - BigFishGames
You build words starting with long words at the bottom of the pyramid and work up. As you level up, more obscure words are used. The most frustrating part of this game is when you finish a pyramid and have to wait while the endless graphics effects circle everything. If it weren't for this incredibly annoying and boring aspect, I'd play the game for hours and much more frequently. Some of the pyramids have words that are part of a category (eg things related to movies# but most are random. There are two kinds of mini-games; one where you make as many words as possible out of a given set of letters and one where you unscramble the letters to create a word. It expects a certain word so you can create a perfectly good word but if it's not the one it's looking for, it doesn't count. Same with the pyramid words; it has to be the specific one it's looking for. I can live with that on the pyramid but it seems to me like any legitimate word should be accepted when unscrambling letters. This is a game I played several times initially. Now I go to it when I need a change of pace; I play a few rounds #until I get bored with waiting for the unnecessary graphic show at the top of the pyramid and then come back days or weeks later and play a couple more rounds. With some minor improvements, this could be 5 star entertainment.
This game is unexciting and not challenging at all.
The first few levels were fun because I hand't played a game quite like this. After the first segment though it lost a lot of it's appeal because it was no longer new. Now I play it for just one pyramid at a time.
This game is dumb. Except for a couple of "themed" days you just have to guess at letters until you find one. This game would be richly enhanced (and a lot more fun) if it gave you some idea of what kind of words you are looking for. The theme is Amazing Pyramids, why not use words that are found in each scene of the "adventure"?
The time it takes for the next challange to come up is much to long and many of the words were just silly,I could not find them in the dictionary even.shame because this hangman type game has the potantial to be good fun. lady J.
there was nothing to assist you in figuring the word out. You just started blind, and continued all the way through.
Very disappointed here. Game was really for kids. Not very imaginative.
It's basically a dressed up version of Hangman, in which you have to figure out a series of words to fill up a pyramid. You start off with a nine letter word, and work your way up to a three letter word (seven words altogether). There are two modes, Adventure and Classic. Classic allows you to choose a pyramid from four experience modes. Each experience mode uses a different percentage of the dictionary to pick the words from: 20%, 40%, 80% and 100%. The lower the percentage the easier the words. Adventure mode has a story about an archaeological exploration that you progress through as you play the game. The first quarter of the Adventure mode pulls words from 20% of the dictionary, the next quarter uses 40% of the dictionary, etc. There is a timer, but it's only there to let you know how long the game is taking in the Classic mode. There is a level that rises or lowers depending on incorrect letter choices and correct solving of words in both modes. If the level hits the bottom without you having solved all the words in the pyramid, you lose that round. There are bonuses you can earn in the Adventure mode (revealing all vowels, revealing a single letter of your choice, etc.), that act as helpful clues. It's a well-designed, smooth-playing game. The bells & whistles add to the game instead of detracting from it, and it's not designed as one of those overly-cutesy games. The Adventure mode story has enough of a hook to keep you interested. There's a Hall of Fame that records the highest scores so the game has a lot of re-playability. Unlike a lot of word games, this one will offer a continual challenge at the higher levels for people who have a good vocabulary or want to improve theirs. It's a good single-player game, and would also be good as a family or multi-player game, due to the ability to choose the difficulty level in the Classic mode. Even in the Adventure mode, later on when the words start to get harder, the kids can still have fun trying to guess what letter is needed.
The background, music, special keys, and graphics keep this from being a boring hangman-style game. It could be a little difficult for kids who may not know the bigger words, however it's not too challenging (the first round of challenges, anyway), so they will be able to play and guess anyway. It's a relaxing game, and if you're looking for something to pass the time and enjoy Word games, you may like this one.
I don't understand why this game received such low ratings, I really liked this game. The Adventure mode gives you a story and each day of the adventure requires you to spell words on a pyramid starting with the bottom word which is 9 letters, then 8 letters and the top word is 3 letters. You have 26 letters to choose from and you get extra energy for each letter not used. You also have the option at any time to guess what the word is for extra points and it doesn't use any of your energy, but if you guess incorrectly you have to start all over with a different word. There are bonuses that give you more time or cross off letters that aren't in the word, these bonuses are not available in the classic mode which is just continuing pyramids until all of your energy bar is depleted. Enjoy!

NOTE: I'm undergoing what could be somewhat big changes for Kiyomi's character to make her less Sue-ish, so criticism and feedback (CONSTRUCTIVE) is highly appreciated, and bear with me! If there are inconsistencies, this is why.
Kiyomi Hyūga (日向 清見, Hyūga Kiyomi, née Yuki (雪)), is a kunoichi from Konohagakure's Team 4 and is a descendant of the Yuki clan. She is the older sister of Mizuko Yuki and the twin sister of Raiden Yuki. Inspired by Sakura's desire to be more useful, she trains under her squad leader, Kaori Senju, and also her mother, Mizu Yuki, to get better control over her chakra and to learn medical ninjutsu and to become stronger. She later becomes widely known for her beauty and skill which earned her one moniker "Konoha's Ice Angel" (木の葉の氷天使, Konoha no Kōri Tenshi, Literally Meaning: The Hidden Tree Leaves' Ice Angel). She marries Kaito Hyūga two years after the war, having two children with him.
Kiyomi was born and raised in a small snowy village in the Land of Water. Kiyomi grew up with her twin brother, Raiden, and her mother, Mizu. She grew up in an area that was still suffering from war. During this war, two different sides battled each other with ninja, and some possessed kekkei genkai. After this war, many terrifying images and memories were stuck in the minds of many people. Those who possessed kekkei genkai were quickly becoming feared out of concern that their existence would bring out more suffering and war.
Kiyomi's parents were both shinobi, though they were forced to go into hiding to escape persecution and death. Due to this, both Reiki and Mizu were inactive for a long time until Reiki decided to go and travel around part of the world. Though, while traveling around the world, he was killed. This was something that Mizu could not bring herself to tell her kids, nor could she believe it. She eventually tells them, however, they were filled with grief and sadness, Kiyomi even cried quite a bit. Now without a father, who did not tell Kiyomi nor Raiden about the Ice Release before his death, Kiyomi was left without knowing about her abilities. She did know, however, that she was going to get a younger sister soon. Kiyomi did eventually discover this ability two years before she was supposed to be enrolled in the academy, at the tender age of five, by being scared by her brother sneaking up on her, which triggered her to create several small ice spikes to which Raiden created a weak ice dome to protect himself. This caused a watching Mizu to express shock and fear. She then rushed both of them inside and quickly explained to them what happened and what was going on. Raiden, then scared, asked if they could move away. Mizu agreed and, soon, Kiyomi moved to Konohagakure. Kiyomi and Raiden also knew very well about their two cousins, Aiko and Haku, and cared for them, though they did not live in the same village.
When Kiyomi did live in the Leaf Village, she started the academy at age seven and was bullied for being from another land, and for being rather short. Rather quickly though, Kiyomi's bullies left her alone, due to the fact that she lashed out at them and they started to slightly fear her. Eventually, Kiyomi met and befriended Sakura Haruno. Though in her house, there was trouble brewing as Aiko had moved months after Kiyomi did, yet Haku was still nowhere to be seen. Then Aiko revealed the truth about Haku's true whereabouts and that he left with one of the Seven Ninja Swordsman of the Mist. This devastated Kiyomi, as not only was she terrified by the power of the Swordsman, she truly thought that she could trust Haku. This caused Kiyomi to want to forget about Haku altogether, but she could never truly get away from her past and constantly worried about Haku and his fate.
Back at the academy, Sasuke Uchiha's popularity among girls was rapidly increasing. When her closest friend, Sakura, fell for him, and with the rumor going around that Sasuke liked girls with long hair, she cut her hair down with help from her mother so that it no longer fell to her mid-back but was chin length. This started her dislike for Sasuke at the beginning of the series as she did not like him breaking ties between girls, though it was not his fault.
At some point in time, Sakura approached her and asked her if she had feelings for the Uchiha, to which Kiyomi angrily declined and she argued with Sakura about her feelings. Kiyomi then harshly told Sakura that she was physically weak, stemming from her terrible temper, and cut off their friendship right there despite Sakura not actually doing anything wrong. She later stated that she was offended Sakura thought she would betray their friendship by liking Sasuke.
This started their dislike for each other and, because of her height, Kiyomi earned herself a prominent nickname of "Runt", (ちび Chibi), which many other girls started to call her, alongside Raiden, Itsuki, and Kiba.
Also, at some point Kiba approached Kiyomi and made fun of her for her height, to which she retorted and made fun of the male gender, this also ended up being a constant thing. This irritated Raiden, and he hissed at her comeback. Kiyomi was then not on good terms with her brother, in fact, they frequently argued with each other and made fun of each other. Little did Kiyomi know that Raiden was really just torn between his friends and family. They frequently said that the other would be a burden to their future team.
She then went to befriend Nozomi Haruno. Kiyomi graduated from the academy with high grades.
Kiyomi is a blunt and prudent kunoichi. Kiyomi is also a sharp-tongued girl who is rather audacious. Kiyomi herself has admitted that she does an attitude, though she loves to have fun, she can also be quite irresponsible. She did, however, noticeably soften during Part II and showed a more light-hearted aspect of her personality as she cracked many more jokes, teased her friends and family more, and became more shy and flustered around Kaito. At the same time, Kiyomi became more sarcastic and, like Aiko, Itsuki, Kaito, and Raiden became more foul-mouthed with a playful streak. She does, however, know when to act regal and proper, and can act very mature if she has to. This has led some people to call her two-faced; in one situation, she can act very regal, and, in another, she can act similar to a bully, with a playful streak. As such, Kiyomi is good at acting and faking her feelings and fake crying.
She always disliked four of her male classmates in the academy who were Kiba Inuzuka, Sasuke Uchiha, Raiden, and Itsuki. Despite this, Kiyomi did show respect to her other male classmates and only disliked those four. When an academy student, she disliked many girls in her year since they loved Sasuke and were more interested in boys than actually being shinobi and Kiyomi found that annoying. Because of what happened in the academy, Kiyomi and Raiden had poor relationships with each other. When in the academy, Raiden often scolded her for being "unladylike" in speech and behavior. They often mocked each other greatly. However, after Haku's premature death, Kiyomi and Raiden's bond matured rapidly. Despite the fact that they tease and mock each other playfully, Kiyomi and Raiden would risk their lives for one another and deeply love each other.
Kiyomi is rather quick-tempered and can be harsh if she is angered enough, such as telling Sakura she was physically weak and needed to become stronger at a rather young age in the academy. This shows Kiyomi's temper and mouth can cause her to say things she would not mean at all. She showed regret and guilt for what she did to Sakura and apologized during the Chūnin Selection Exams. Though she isn't particularly violent, she can resort to violence if someone angers her enough or does something she finds wrong and has a very intimidating demeanor when angry.
Kiyomi highly cherishes and trusts those she sees as comrades and allies to the point where she will place herself at risk to protect them. She does, however, understand the rules of being a medical-nin and, though she does follow them and finds them logical, she dislikes them due to the fact that she thinks it makes her useless in battle, as she is not allowed to be on the front-lines in battle. Despite her hotheaded personality, Kiyomi is calm and rational in battle. She also has high self-control. After her training with Mizu, Kiyomi became overprotective of her friends, family, and teammates. She deeply cares about her loved ones and she risked her life on several occasions for them. Kiyomi also hugged her brother, Kaito, and Itsuki more often, and sometimes even kissed their foreheads and cheeks as a symbol she cares for them greatly.
Kiyomi also has a sense of honor as she was unwilling to surrender to Itsuki during the Chūnin Exams due to the fact that she did not want to the work Aiko and Mizu did to train her to go down in vain. However, one more than one occasion, Kiyomi showed that she was unwilling to hurt those who she deeply cares for. This was shown when she did not want to fight Itsuki during the Chūnin Exams and the other being that she refused to fight back against her reanimated father during the Fourth Shinobi World War, this decision nearly costing Kiyomi her life.
She can be merciless against those who injure her comrades and cares for her loved ones deeply to the point where she would use her own body as a shield to protect them. She also has a father-daughter bond with Genma Shiranui, whom her sensei is married to.
On the other hand of her tough and blunt demeanor, Kiyomi seems to be insecure about gaining recognition and attention. Kiyomi admitted that, by age 13, she had sociophobia developing in her, and by the climax of Part II, it was intense. She was also desperate for praise. Because of her desperation for praise, Kiyomi would blush whenever someone acknowledged her abilities. Kiyomi frequently compared herself and her abilities to Sakura.
She has stated that despite what people will think, her self-esteem is noticeably low. At the beginning of Part I, she was shown to be rather confident in herself but, after Haku died in front of her, she became more uneasy. At the beginning of Part II, the main difference in Kiyomi's personality was that she was more soft and sensitive, and her desperation for attention and low esteem were also pretty clear. She was highly self-conscious about her abilities. She also had emotional insecurities and trust issues after she heard about what happened to Haku. Kiyomi put extra stress and pressure on herself because of family matters. Because of all this, Kiyomi, alongside Raiden for his own reasons, was shown to be depressed in Part II. It was also revealed that she developed post-traumatic stress disorder from watching Haku's death, suffering many nightmares of his death which would leave her terrified. By the climax of Part II, it was heavily hinted that Kiyomi suffered from several mental disorders, such as depression, sociophobia, and post-traumatic stress disorder, revealing a deeper side of her personality. She even stated that she was scared of this deeper side of her, which was covered by her blunt actions.
Before this, Kiyomi doubted her abilities and wanted to become better, stronger, and smarter and she wanted to protect all her friends from Konoha and Suna. For this, she dedicated almost three full years of training under Kaori for medical ninjutsu and Mizu for intelligence and mental training. Despite the emotional training she received, however, Kiyomi's self-esteem was still rather low and she more desperate for attention than people would think. She became very protective of her teammates and other friends in Konoha, as well as the Three Sand Siblings, and swore to herself that she would never lose her friends or anyone she loved again after Haku died. Kiyomi, during Part II, openly admitted that she had anxiety.
As Part II continued, Kiyomi's insecurities became more clear and noticeable. Kiyomi constantly pushed herself to her limits and sometimes even beyond that, causing her to pass out from exhaustion quite a few times, overworking herself. She had high expectations for herself and constantly thought that she was never strong enough to protect those close to her. During the war, she was shown to have similar thoughts and feelings again by stating that Sakura was doing more than self-pity, but was trying to help save the world and became one of the greatest medical-nin in the world. Kiyomi got her act together and ended up becoming more in touch with her feelings than ever.
Kiyomi has been in love with Kaito ever since she graduated from the academy, and wanted to see him safe and happy above all else. Kiyomi hoped more than anything else that Kaito would love her back, and, during the war, her only desire was to be in his arms, showered in his love. Her dreams of being in a stable, healthy, and loving relationship with Kaito soon became reality and Kiyomi married him after the war and had two children with him, Saki and Hibiki. As his wife, Kiyomi usually calls Kaito "darling" (アナタ, anata). Kiyomi, while usually assertive, aggressive, and tough, is the opposite around Kaito. Especially during the few times he shows her affection, Kiyomi always blushes whilst becoming flustered and shy. This shows the major soft-spot she has for him. However, during the climax of Part II, due to her thinking that Kaito did not like her at all because he became much colder, Kiyomi began to become more flirtatious towards other boys in the village who she deemed handsome. Despite this, Kiyomi regained her original feelings (during the war) for Kaito after talking to Aiko about it, as the latter convinced her to stay true to her heart.
As a mother, Kiyomi is shown to be relatively the same and appreciates the idea of beauty through development. Kiyomi is the type of person who deeply loves her children and husband, and is willing to do much for them. She also can be very intimidating, when she's angry, and her son and husband fear her for her temper and wrath. Though her intimidating side is mostly shown around her son, Kiyomi has been shown sacring her daughter with her terrible temper. The most notable occasion being when Saki griped about taking the Chūnin Selection Exams, saying she was too weak for it, Amarante handed her a letter (Amarante was told to give Saki the letter if she complained) which instantly changed her daughter's mind, though the contents of the letter were never revealed. At the same time, Kiyomi is not without a carefree and playful side, as she jokingly asked Kaito when she was going to get pregnant with their third child, to which he blushed but chuckled.
AppearanceKiyomi has fair skin, blue eyes (which are further accented by long eyelashes), and straight dark brown hair, which when in light, has a copper-colored shine to it. Her front hair bangs went diagonally straight across her forehead. Her hair was chin length when she was a child, then it went down to her shoulder blades in Part I, then to her mid-back in Part II. During Part I, her hair tucked behind her ear but eventually grew down to chin-length bangs. As she gets older, Kiyomi is noted to become very attractive and beautiful by Kaito and her friends.forehead protector around her forehead and the standard shinobi sandals, both of which were the color blue. In Part II, Kiyomi sports a high-collared top, which parts above her stomach and navel and black shorts. Accompanying these are a medical pouch, as well as a tantō strapped to her lower back. The cloth of her forehead protector changes to black. She dons black, high-heeled shinobi sandals and she also wears black gloves as well as black thigh-high stockings. Close to the beginning of the Fourth Shinobi World War, Kiyomi gains Strength of a Hundred Seal in the form of a purple diamond on her forehead, which is covered by her bangs in adulthood. During the Fourth Shinobi World War, she wears the standard Konoha infantry flak jacket and the assorted clothing. Kiyomi also dons the Allied Shinobi Forces forehead protector around her forehead. She temporarily sports dark blue nail polish on her fingernails and toenails.
During Naruto and Hinata's wedding, Kiyomi wears a dark green, high collared, sleeveless qipao dress that goes down to her ankles with thigh-high slits on both sides and gold-colored trimmings and fastening-buttons going down the left side of her dress. For her own wedding with Kaito, Kiyomi sports a white wedding dress. She also wore white high-heels and sported soft lipstick as well as dangling earrings.
After rising to the ranks of jōnin and during The Last: Naruto the Movie, Kiyomi's attire consists of a dark blue sleeveless, high-collared qipao dress, which has a zipper and went down to her mid thigh and also reveals her back and arms. She also wears black shorts and she began to stop wearing her forehead protector at all. She also donned similar sandals to the ones she wore in Part II and sports black gloves. She cut her hair down to a straight, shoulder-length bob. In adulthood, Kiyomi wears a dark blue, high-collared, sleeveless dress with thigh-high slits on both sides and high-heeled sandals. She also sports a light-lavender colored belt-like choker around her neck over her dress collar and a piercing on her left ear. Her front hair bangs also now part to the left and slightly covers her left eye. When on duty, she dons the Konoha uniform. She also noticeably gained more of a womanly figure. During the time after The Last, but before the start of Boruto: Next Generations, Kiyomi sported light pink lipstick.
During her free time in both parts, Kiyomi wears a short-sleeved, royal blue hooded top, which reveals her stomach and navel, and black shorts. As a child, Kiyomi sported a dark blue, long-sleeved hooded jacket and a black skirt. While working long hours at the hospital, Kiyomi sports a long-sleeved, white doctor's coat which falls down to the top of her thighs and a red armband that has Konoha's medical-nin symbol on her right arm during both Part II and adulthood.
As a descendant of the Yuki clan and apprentice and student of a Senju, Kiyomi is a very powerful and skilled kunoichi. After undergoing intense training she adds more variety to her fighting style and becomes much more powerful. She is also widely known for her chakra control and skill in medical ninjutsu. Another thing she is famous for is her skill in being a bodyguard. In months, after becoming a chūnin, Kiyomi's skill in being a top-notch, elite, personal bodyguard and escort was very high. Two years after the war, Kiyomi rises to the ranks of jōnin. Her main weakness in battle is her noticeably high lack of skill in genjutsu, too many hand seals can also hurt her, and she also has a low pain tolerance.
Physical Prowess and Chakra Control
Trained under Kaori, as well as having natural a talent for it, Kiyomi gained much higher acrobatic prowess and higher agility. Kiyomi gained a higher reaction speed as well. She also obtained better evasive skills. Kiyomi also is naturally very strong, having much better physical strength than average. By adulthood, this physical strength could rival that of an advanced user of Chakra Enhanced Strength.
Another one of Kiyomi's strong points is her speed. Her sheer speed alone made her hard for Raiden to defeat. She is also very agile and has good reflexes. Kiyomi's speed increases whenever she uses her Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals. She attacks very quickly and without a kekkei genkai like the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan, it becomes basically impossible to see and keep track of her movements. She can travel between her mirrors and make it look like she is in all of them when she is really just traveling between them. This speed was her most defining skill in Part I and Kiyomi herself admitted that she heavily relied on her speed.
Kiyomi was naturally talented with her chakra control and was able to perform a jutsu without wasting too much chakra. This skill in it might have also come from Kaori training her squad up in this. After all the training Kiyomi went through under Kaori and Mizu's tutelage, her chakra control increased amazingly, and she turned it into a vital part of her battle strategy. This ended up becoming the first thing Kiyomi taught Saki after she became a genin. Kiyomi has stated multiple times that chakra control is one of the most important skills in a ninja, saying that she would be nowhere if she did not master proper chakra control and that it is not only vital in medical ninjutsu but in many types of jutsu in general.
Kiyomi can use Water, Wind, Yin, and Yang Release.
Nature Transformation
Kiyomi's main weapon in battle is her utilization of wind and water natured chakra to create the Ice Release, which she is very proficient in doing. Not only could she fight with wind and water style ninjutsu but she could also use Ice Release techniques such as Demonic Mirroring Ice Crystals. Kiyomi can surround her target and attack them even they are in the sky. Kiyomi can also create large spikes made of ice. For defensive purposes, Kiyomi can create a dome of ice which can handle several explosive tags at once. She is just as skilled in using her two chakra natures separately as she is using them together.
Medical Ninjutsu
When Kiyomi went to Kaori, her main and only goal was to learn medical ninjutsu to ensure that no one she loved would die again. The advanced medical ninjutsu that Kiyomi and Sakura were taught required incredible chakra control. This amount of skill and proficiency in healing to be found in such young kunoichi or anyone, in general, was exceptionally rare. Though not as skilled as Sakura, she came rather close and was a near expert in self-restoration and weapon coating. She is also very skilled in healing others and played a major part in the Fourth Shinobi World War as she played a major part in healing most of the wounded when Sakura and her other medical superiors could not.
During her mission to stop Team Mikan, Kiyomi poured her chakra into Aiko for three whole days to prevent her from dying. Though she is not as good as Sakura, Kiyomi still as high skill in medical ninjutsu and is regarded as one of the greatest medical-nin in the entire world, much like her idol, not too far behind Sakura. She can also cure those who have been poisoned by extracting the poison from their bodies, while simultaneously healing the casualty. Despite the skill she has in medical ninjutsu, Kiyomi's main flaw in the medical arts is creating poisons. However, Kiyomi is extremely skilled in making antidotes and can analyze and decipher even the most complex poisons to make an effective antidote, with standard medicinal herbs barely requiring actual medical tools. Though her abilities to create poisons are very low, especially for a medical ninja. In fact, all of the poisons that Kiyomi carries are made by Aiko.
Kiyomi was shown to have some noteworthy skill in taijutsu. Though by Kaori it was deemed about above average prowess, it wasn't anything too special. The main cause of this probably comes from one of two sources, or maybe both, Kiyomi's monster strength and her insane speed. These two factors are clearly the main things that Kiyomi's taijutsu so noteworthy. According to Mizu, however, Kiyomi's taijutsu would be plain average if it wasn't for her strength and speed.
Kiyomi's keen intellect is one of her main weapons. She can guess her opponent's tactics, find their weak points, and find their attack pattern after a brief glance at the battlefield. She was also shown to have high skill in acupuncture, as she can disable an opponent by hitting them at a precise point on the body with a senbon. Because of this, Kiyomi can cause immediate death or a temporary appearance that looks like such. Kiyomi also knows a lot about herbalism, as she usually collected plants and herbs for her mother, when she was still a genin, for medical purposes and, as a teenager in Part II, could already easily distinguish between them by appearance. Kiyomi also has very keen senses. It was revealed that Kiyomi does not think well under pressure. After Part II, however, Kiyomi still does not think well under pressure, but her judgment was not clouded under pressure, something her mother taught her.
Other Skills
Kiyomi has good teamwork and is also shown to be a qualified long, mid, and short ranged fighter, though she specializes more in short-mid range. Kiyomi is also very nimble, quick and evasive, something she inherited from Mizu. Kiyomi can also skillfully, nearly flawlessly, use the Silent Killing. This is she, and her brother learned from Mizu during the time skip between Parts I-II.

Part I
Prologue- Land of the Waves
Main Article: Prologue-Land of Waves Arc
After graduating, Kiyomi was first seen sitting the classroom next to Nozomi as the girls talk to each other about anything which comes to mind. Kiyomi growls when she sees Ino and Sakura rushing in the classroom and watches the other girls arguing over Sasuke with a look of distaste. She is then enraged to hear she is with Itsuki but softens and smiles when she learns that she's on a team with Kaito, giggling to herself. When meeting Kaori, Kiyomi sets rules for Itsuki to follow. She is later seen with Nozomi, walking through the village happily discussing their friendship and Kiyomi continuously giggles and talks about her feelings towards Kaito. It is unknown whether Kiyomi's squad was assigned the bell test, however, it has been hinted that they were and they succeeded the first time. After being summoned to the mission reception area, Kiyomi is assigned a C-rank mission with her team. While much of the contents of which were unknown, it is known that they had to go to the Land of Waves for their mission.
The mission itself was successful and, while Kiyomi and Itsuki were arguing about who was stronger, Kaori silencing them caught their attention as she usually let the two argue freely. It was them revealed that Kaori silenced them as she sensed strong chakra. They soon discovered Zabuza Momochi and Haku fighting Team 7. To which Kiyomi expressed great shock at seeing Haku again, and immediately told Itsuki to shut up for asking why they were watching Team 7 fight the two shinobi as she watched anxiously. Though Kiyomi, Itsuki, and Kaito wanted to intervene, Kaori stated that the battle was too hectic and that it was seemingly starting to come to an end. She then, again, showed great surprise at seeing Haku give his life up for Zabuza. Though she pleaded with Kaori to save Haku she only shook her head and stated that, again the battle was too hectic and that death comes with being a shinobi, to which Kiyomi started to cry. While Itsuki was at first surprised at her reaction, he soon realized that Kiyomi and Haku had some relation and felt bad for her. She then decided to tell her clansmen about what happened, and, once again, began to cry.
Chūnin Exams
Main Article: Chūnin Exams
To take her mind off of Haku's death and end her depression, Kaori decided to enter Kiyomi and her team into the Chūnin Selection Exams. Though this might have been Kaori's main reason to enroll her team into the Exams, the strength, and skill of her students was certainly enough to prove them worthy of taking the Exams. Shortly before the start of the exams, Kiyomi starts to talk to Nozomi and they discuss the exams. For the first portion of the exams, they are given a written exam with too high of a difficulty level for the average genin to answer. To pass, Kiyomi tried her best to answer all the questions and managed to answer three of them. Kaito then used his Byakugan to copy her answers and Itsuki used his Mind Body Switch Technique to copy Kaito's answers, showing their great teamwork.
For the second stage of the exams, Team 4 enters the Forest of Death to take part in a 5-day survival exercise. Kiyomi, Kaito, and Itsuki think with a similar mindset to that of Team 10, and try to avoid conflict to not tire themselves out and save their energy for when they really need it. Despite this, however, Team 4 was still forced to fight with another team from Sunagakure to get another scroll. Due to their teamwork, something the opposing team lacked, Team 4 managed to defeat them and get a second scroll, thus passing the second stage.
The remaining genin takes part in one-on-one combat for the preliminary matches. For her match, Kiyomi is pitted against her brother, Raiden. Raiden used Wind Release jutsu against Kiyomi, and she used taijutsu to fight back. She then used her Ice Release to try and defeat her brother, but he managed to dodge some of her attacks due to his great speeds and naturally high reaction speeds. Seeing the battle wasn't getting anywhere, Kiyomi considered using senbon to hit certain pressure points on Raiden's body to disable him, which she set her mind on doing. Kiyomi eventually managed to come up with another strategy to get Raiden to lower his guard; she purposefully did badly against him at first to get him to lower his guard, but then unleashed her original strategy to of rendering Raiden unconscious with senbon, which worked, allowing Kiyomi to win. She passed out right after she was declared the winner of the match. Her plan barely succeeded and she was left in a worse condition than before in the process of playing out her plan. In fact, both of her ankles had severe damage done to them to the point where both of her teammates had to put her arms around their necks to keep her up after she woke up. After Raiden woke up, Kiyomi released herself from Itsuki and Kaito's grip and hugged him tightly and told him that she was the winner of the match with a smirk on her face. This did irritate Raiden, but he hugged his sister back nonetheless, happy that she had finally smiled after Haku's death. Kiyomi is later scheduled to fight Itsuki.
She was once seen with Mizu practicing the Cliff Climbing Technique and being trained. At another point, with Aiko, Kiyomi practiced her marksmanship with moving targets with archery as an overwatching Mizu smiled at them.
When the finalists gather, Kiyomi watches several battles until her own. When it's time for her fight, Kiyomi quickly goes to the arena and prepares to fight Itsuki. Though at first, when first seeing the match-ups, she was happy to realize she could fight Itsuki (so she could prove that she was "stronger") she became unenthusiastic about the match due to the fact that she did not want to fight one of her close friends. Though she mentally considered surrendering, Kiyomi began to dislike that idea due to the fact that both Mizu and Aiko have helped her train tirelessly for this moment, and she did not want it to go down in vain. However, Kiyomi wanted to purposefully lose to him because she did not want the battle to drag on for too long, still contradicting her previous thought.
As the battle began, Kiyomi, after seeing Temari's battle with Shikamaru, thought about using strategy instead of strength to beat her teammate, but soon found that she could not think of a proper strategy due to the fact that Itsuki was throwing much Fire and Wind Release jutsu at her and preparing to trap her under genjutsu. It was then that Kiyomi realized she was leaving herself open for him to attack her, but she thought she could use her speed to dodge all his attacks safely. She then tried her best to use Water Release jutsu to put out Itsuki's Fire Release. Kiyomi also then tried to dodge his attacks, but still could not figure out a strategy to defeat Itsuki. Soon, Kiyomi used her previous strategy of purposefully performing poorly in battle and get Itsuki to eventually slip and reveal a weak spot. Though her plan was going the right way, Itsuki managed to throw it back at her. He then used his Crystal Release to quickly trap her, but, before that, Kiyomi used her speed to escape the crystal's reach. However, Itsuki quickly put her under a genjutsu and got Kiyomi to leave herself open for attack. Due to this, Kiyomi lost to Itsuki and the latter was the winner of the battle. This made Kiyomi seriously wonder if she relied too much on her speed to get out of tough situations in battle.
As Kiyomi went to the audience to sit with her mother, she passed Nozomi who asked her why she did poorly against Itsuki. Kiyomi responded by saying her mind was too occupied to focus correctly and relied on her speed too much to which Kiyomi stated she wanted to become stronger and add more variety to her jutsu to make sure that would not happen in a serious situation. Kiyomi also went to apologize to Sakura for saying what she did years back in the academy, to which the latter smiled and forgave her.

Sasuke Recovery Mission
Main Article: Sasuke Recovery Mission
Kiyomi was seen with her squad, as Itsuki teased her for loosing to him to which she threatened the latter, causing him to smirk. After the failed attempt to stop Sasuke from defecting from Konoha, she was later seen with Aiko, relieved to hear that her friends were safe. Then, Kiyomi asked to be trained in medical ninjutsu and chakra control under Kaori. Kaori did state that she could certainly help and started to train Kiyomi, giving her work to do every day and night and even pushed her to train every mission and asked Mizu to help train her so she could get better faster. Kiyomi noted several times that it was very hard to keep up with the lessons and both women were very strict, allowing little to no room for failure. Mizu was later shown asking Kiyomi why she was interested in learning medical ninjutsu and getting better chakra control. Kiyomi smiled and stated that she not only wanted to protect her friends and lower their chances of death, she also wanted to become stronger and add variety to her fighting style. She also then asked her mother if she could teach the former and her brother how to use the Silent Killing. Mizu smiled and nodded and her daughter.
In Naruto's Footsteps: The Friends' Paths
Main Article: In Naruto's Footsteps: The Friends' Paths
In the anime, about two years after Naruto leaves to train, another chūnin exam is held. Kiyomi enters with her squad. During the first exam, Kiyomi, Itsuki, and Kaito are seated in different rooms and are tasked with the objective of getting a combined score of exactly 100 points on their written exam despite the separation. Itsuki does the same thing that Team 10 did: he contacted his teammates telepathically and assigned them the questions to answer. Then, they are given a bonus question: each team must unanimously select a teammate to disqualify. Team 4 chose no one and that was the correct answer. This qualified them to the next phase.
Those who passed the first exam are tasked with a new objective: reach the Demon Dessert within three days in order to participate in the second exam. Kaito, Kiyomi, and Itsuki successfully do so and are given the same exam they were several years ago: obtain a scroll from another team.
Team 4 is eventually found by one of the proctors, who brings them back to where all the other genin are being assembled. They were then told that the Chūnin Selection Exams have been canceled; reports on the participants' performances will be sent back to their villages and their promotion is left to their superiors. When they get back to Konoha, Lady Tsunade promotes Kiyomi and her friends to chūnin.

Kiyomi, Raiden, and Aiko had a cameo during this arc as Naruto compared their Ice Release to Guren's Crystal Release. It was also revealed that Kiyomi was supposed to help with the Four-Corner Sealing Barrier, but was already on a mission with her team and could not.
Shinobi of the Yuki
Main Article: Shinobi of the Yuki
Being sent on a mission to take care of a complaint, of a shinobi group causing trouble and kidnapping and killing others, Kiyomi, Raiden, and Aiko head out to help a small village. Having to stop to sleep and rest, Kiyomi and her team stop to sleep. It was then revealed that during Kiyomi's dream, that she was still traumatized by Haku's death. This was shown when she had a nightmare about the impaled Haku telling her she was weak and that Sakura would always be stronger than her: that she was too weak to prevent his death before shouting her name angrily. Kiyomi soon shot out of sleep to a shocked Raiden who asked her if she was alright. Kiyomi nodded but stated that she didn't like the feel of the wind, and knew something bad was going to happen. The next day, they soon run into Mikan, Tsumugi, and Kaida. Aiko then engages in combat with Mikan, Kiyomi with Kaida, and Raiden with Tsumugi.Then, due to Mikan's jutsu, Kiyomi and Raiden, as well as Tsumugi and Kaida, get separated from Aiko and Mikan, as Mikan wanted to have a rematch with Aiko with no interference. This left Kiyomi and Raiden to Kaida and Tsumugi. Though Kiyomi was going to attack Kaida, she watched as Tsumugi stated that she didn't want to kill Raiden, but she'd save him a kiss before that (that being Raiden's death). She hissed and was going to do something, but realized that Raiden could handle himself and that she had a mission to finish. Then, she attacked Kaida with her monstrous strength and then trapped the latter with her mirrors. Kiyomi, however, was startled by the fact that Kaida had a jutsu that could melt one of her mirrors, and that mirror was the same one that Kiyomi was in, causing her to have major, second-degree burns on her right arm.
Kiyomi, however, managed to gain the upper hand by tiring out Kaida with her intense speeds and large quantities of chakra. This caused the latter to let her guard down long enough to the point were Kiyomi could go to rescue Raiden from death by punching the ground and causing Tsumugi to have to break the jutsu to get herself to safety. This allowed Kiyomi to get to her brother to get him to safety as well.
Kiyomi and Raiden then watched as Tsumugi yelled at Kaida for letting her guard down. The sisters then started to argue This led Kiyomi to reminisce about her own childhood memories with Sakura as she called her weak and said she would be a burden to her future squad while simultaneously wondering if Sakura was Tsunade's favorite. Meanwhile, Raiden thought about how he really felt inside when he agreed to the same things about Kiyomi while he was a kid with Kiba and Itsuki. This led them both to become very uneasy and uncomfortable.
Due to both Kaida and Tsumugi realizing that Kiyomi and Raiden's guards were down, they chose to attack them. This gave them the upper hand and allowed them to do major damage. But, the two kunoichis let themselves get too cocky, which resulted in their death's at Kiyomi and Raiden's hands.
To kill her, Kiyomi had to trick Kaida into thinking that she had killed her, then, with her guard down, Kiyomi moved behind Kaida and tried to attack her, but Kaida managed to dodge Kiyomi's attack, barely. Kiyomi then questioned if Kaida was going to arm herself, to which Kaida stated that, although she didn't have any, she didn't need any weapons to beat Kiyomi. Then Kiyomi threw several kunai out at Kaida, pretending to miss. Then Kaida took the one nearest to her and moved towards Kiyomi to attack her, though the latter let her guard down and was overthrown by a Water Release technique. Then a wind style one to keep her still and, finally, an Ice Release technique to trap her. When Kaida questioned where she went wrong, Kiyomi stated that she purposefully threw the kunai at Kaida's direction to get her to come near her. She then proceeded to kill Kaida by punching her in the chest, causing her to die instantly.
Later she and Raiden finally met up with their older cousin and they started to discuss plans for returning to Konoha and giving themselves as much treatment as their chakra would allow. Though the three had another enemy waiting for them. A group of five shinobi, who had always supported Mikan's beliefs and ideas as well as her sisters', unbeknownst to them. They ruthlessly attacked the three for killing the sisters and each member made hundreds of clones to tire out the trio even more. Though they tried to fight back, they were too tired, and little chakra left, not anticipating the attack on them. The three had quickly reached their limits, Aiko even became poisoned. When Aiko's guard was down, after being poisoned, the leader of the group tried to stab Aiko in a vital spot, to kill her, but both Kiyomi and Raiden jumped in front of the attack, using themselves as shields to protect their cousin. Kiyomi, who was the one in front grabbed onto the sword to make sure the group didn't flee from battle and told Aiko to get back to Konoha, but Aiko refused to leave them there. Then, Kiyomi managed to master her own Strength of a Hundred Seal and releases it so she can heal herself. She then manages to fight back and quickly kills the shinobi who attacked her and her family.
Kiyomi then summons Katsuyu to transfer chakra to her, Raiden, and Aiko, as they were all exhausted and in need of chakra. Kiyomi then transferred chakra to Aiko through physical contact, and the markings spread onto Aiko's body. It was then revealed that during her fight with Mikan, Aiko released her Strength of a Hundred Seal, but the kunoichi did even more damage after that which left Aiko in her current state. She also stated that she focused all her chakra, which she had left, to heal her wounds as opposed to reforming her seal. Later on, Kiyomi released her Strength of a Hundred Seal and summons Katsuyu to transfer chakra to her, Raiden, and Aiko, as they were all exhausted and in need of chakra. Kiyomi then used the medicinal herbs around her to create an antidote for Aiko, demonstrating the skill she had. Without the usage of the proper medical tools a standard medical-nin would need, Kiyomi barely used any tools and, with Raiden's aid and expertise, managed to create the proper antidote in exactly an hour to counter the unknown poison.
It was also revealed that Kiyomi used the Healing Resuscitation Regeneration Technique to help heal Aiko's deeper cuts and gashes quicker, with Raiden, but they Katsuyu to replenish their chakra once more. After Kiyomi uses Katsuyu to talk to Tsunade about what had happened, Katsuyu is relieved of her duties.
Then, Kiyomi and Raiden give themselves some additional treatment and then Kiyomi hugs Aiko and Raiden and tells them that she greatly loves them both as her family. It ends with Aiko, Kiyomi, and Raiden thinking about how far they've come and how they're ready for anything that comes their way, with each other and their friends.
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki Strikes

While trapped, Kiyomi dreams of herself getting married to Kaito with Reiki and Haku alive and well at her wedding with other deceased characters such as Inoichi Yamanaka, Asuma Sarutobi, Neji Hyūga, and Shikaku Nara as well as her family and friends. Naruto and Sasuke eventually release the Infinite Tsukuyomi, freeing Kiyomi and the rest of the world and thus ending the Fourth Shinobi World War. They all return to Konoha to bury the dead from the war, with Team Kurenai and Naruto paying their respects at the mass funeral.
In Other Media
Road to Ninja: Naruto the Movie
Main Article: Road to Ninja: Naruto the Movie
In the alternate world, Kiyomi is more timid, soft-spoken, and level-headed. As opposed to her brave, blunt, and tough personality, Kiyomi is now much more rational, calm, soft, and even girly. She is also more conservative in her appearance. She is meek and shy. Unlike the Kiyomi that Naruto and Sakura know, Kiyomi shows some type of disgust when talking about Haku. Kiyomi is shy with boys and isn't as good with them as in the real world. She also isn't bossy or pushy with Itsuki, trying to end things harmoniously with him as opposed to lashing out at him like she normally does. Contrary to the original timeline, Kiyomi was raised by Reiki instead of Mizu, who in this world died, the exact opposite of the real world. Reiki was also a Konoha shinobi in this world instead of one from Kiri. The only difference in Kiyomi's appearance is the fact that she wears a light purple eye shadow and her top also covers her stomach and navel and also dons short-sleeves with black trimmings.
Video Games
Kiyomi Yuki is a playable character in the following video games:
In several of the Ultimate Ninja Storm games, the team combination of Kiyomi and Kaito is called "Opposite Lovers".
Creation and Conception
I (as Kiyomi's creator) have always an issue with changing her design and name on many occasions. One thing, however, that remained the same was Kiyomi's personality. I also had always planned for her to be left without a father from the very beginning. Fun fact, I originally had Kiyomi's name as Rin, then as Hanabi, then I finally settled on Kiyomi, but I did fear that it was too popular. I also always greatly admired Sakura Haruno and, for that reason, I based Kiyomi on her a lot. I also have always kept key parts of Kiyomi's personality. I originally planned for Kiyomi to be a member of Squad 7, but I feared that to be too Sue-ish. Then, I planned for Kiyomi to be a member of Team Ten, but I was scared that would ruin the Ino-Shika-Cho trio thing, so I created Team Four.
- "Kiyomi" literally means "pure beauty" (清見). Aiko sometimes jokes around by saying that though she is pretty, Kiyomi is not as innocent or as clueless about the hardships of the shinobi world as people think she is at first glance. Her family name "Yuki" means snow (雪).
- Kiyomi works part-time at Yamanaka Flowers to spend more time with Ino.
- Kiyomi is supposed to be based on Sakura Haruno and Temari.
- Kiyomi's alias, "Konoha's Ice Angel" (木の葉の氷天使, Konoha no Kōri Tenshi, Literally Meaning: The Hidden Tree Leaves' Ice Angel), comes from the fact that she is the female in Konohagakure with the highest skill with the Ice Release kekkei genkai.
- Kiyomi's relationship with Haku was supposed to be based on Sasuke's with his older brother, Itachi Uchiha. The younger one in the relationship (Kiyomi and Sasuke) have their trust betrayed by the older one in the relationship (Haku and Itachi) for a reason they didn't know until the big brother figure died purposefully before their eyes. The older brother figure also is stronger than the younger sibling figure at first, but the younger one slowly surpasses their older family member. Opposite to Sasuke, however, Kiyomi did not want revenge, she did not hate Haku or even anything to with him, she only wanted to forget about him.
- Before Reiki's death, Kiyomi wanted to be a famous actress. After Reiki's death, however, Kiyomi changed her mind and wanted to be a kunoichi. Despite that, she still held a great love for watching films and adored Koyuki Kazahana.
- Kiyomi scored 13 points on The Mary Sue Test. This makes her a Non-Sue.
- Kaito revealed that Kiyomi is a somewhat picky eater, but a is a very good cook.
- Kiyomi likes escort missions the least, but is very skilled in being a bodyguard and is very popular for her skill in being an elite bodyguard and escort more any other skills that she has, even in adulthood.
- Though she is loyal to Kaito, she (as a teenager during Part II) could display a very flirtatious aspect of her personality, causing her to slightly like seduction missions, though she grew out of this during adulthood.
- Though Kiyomi said that she is bisexual, she has not been seen taking any romantic interest in a female.
- Kiyomi has a puppy named Kai.
- The sandals Kiyomi wears in Part II add 1 centimeter onto her height.
- There was originally supposed to be a love-triangle between Kaito, Itsuki, and Kiyomi (Kaito liking Kiyomi, Kiyomi liking Itsuki, and Itsuki being stuck in middle), but the idea was scrapped due to the fact that Naruto was supposed to be an action anime, not a romance.
- In the anime, Kiyomi has the same theme has Obito Uchiha, but her's has a faster beat and some notes are played one octave higher than Obito's is.
- Kiyomi became pregnant with both Hibiki and Saki on her birthday.
- According to the databook(s):
- Kiyomi's hobbies are shopping and teasing her friends and family.
- Kiyomi's desired opponent is Sakura Haruno, though when a genin, Kiyomi wanted to see how she could do against Hinata.
- Kiyomi's favorite foods are dango, and nearly all types of sweets, while her least favorite are pickled plums, squid, and octopus.
- Kiyomi has completed 62 official missions in total: 17 D-Rank, 10 C-Rank, 28 B-Rank, 7 A-Rank, 0 S-Rank.
- Kiyomi's favorite word is"Trust" (信頼, Shinrai)
- According to character trivia from Boruto: Naruto Next Generations:
- Kiyomi's attributes are 130 in strength, 156 in negotiation, 170 in chakra, 174 in intelligence, 131 in perception, and 137 in dexterity.
- (To Itsuki) "Shut up, Itsuki! You idiot, can't you see I'm watching the battle? See, Kaito knows how to be quiet! He's not like you!"
- (To Kaori) "Sensei, I-well.. can't we do anything to help him!? Please!"
- (To Tsumugi, about Raiden) "Don't touch my brother, you touch him, I kill you!"
- (To her Father and Haku) "Don't leave me! Come back to me! I-I love you both so much, Father, Haku! "
- (To Kaito, after his confession) "I- I love you too, Kaito, but there are three things I want from you, alright? First, lips that don't lie. Second, eyes that won't cry. Third, love that never dies"

If you're lowkey obsessed with Dance Moms, like we are, then boy, do we have some great news for you!
Our lives haven't been the same since fan-fave Chloe and her mother Christi left the show in a dramatic cloud of smoke, apparently never to be seen at a dance comp again.
But Chloe and Christi have moved on to bigger and better things, and today, we got the news that Chloe is set to star in a new Centre Stage movie!
Centre Stage: Dance Camp will air on Lifetime, and Chloe will play Gwen, a talented ballet dancer at the camp.
The dance flick will also star, Ethan Stiefel, Kenny Wormald, Sascha Radetsky, and Nicole Muñoz, and Peter Gallagher will resume his role from the previous films, too!
Here's the plot of the film: "Jonathan Reeves (Gallagher) is tasked with infusing more contemporary styles and modernism into the American Ballet Academy and enlists his top choreographers Charlie (Radetsky), Cooper (Stiefel) and Tommy (Wormald) to recruit dancers to compete at a camp where the winners will be selected to join the Academy. Bella Parker (Muñoz), who has always lived in the shadow of her hugely successful sister Kate, finally gets her chance to step into the limelight as one of the dancers recruited for the camp."
We love pretty much any dance movie that comes our way, tbh, but Centre Stage is for suuuuure one of our faves, and the addition of Chloe into the mix is absolutely going to make this movie even better. Basically? We can't wait!

How Much To Charge For A Pumpkin Roll?
Decorating By Alison01 Updated 10 Aug 2016 , 12:03am by -K8memphis
I made my first pumpkin roll a couple months ago and it was a hit! I have thought about selling these as well, but I'm just not sure what to charge. I was thinking with pecans $18 and without pecans $16. Then I asked a few friends what they would pay for one and they said probably no more than $15. They are fast & easy to make, but I think it's the ingredients that end up costing more and why I feel like I need to charge more. What do ya'll think? Thanks in advance!
I just take my cost and multiply by 3 to cover the cost. Remember, doing that you are also covering the cost to bake, clean up, pan and time to do all of it. Don't cut yourself short. I charge $20 for one. I am doing a yule log for someone and I am charging $25 to cover the ganache on it and it is basically the samething.
My sister charges around $20 for hers.
We charge $24.95 at the bakery where i work
Where do you all live I'm coming. I'm in Ohio and top price here is 10.00 I do mine for 9.00 good grief!!!!!!!!
yeah..now I feel like I'm short changing myself...I just sold one today for $12. But I usually just multiply cost by 3 and that does come out to 12...
I don't like to make them for sale, anymore. I used to charge $8.00 but it was really like going through trouble for nothing. People found my price too high, so I prefer doing them strictly for family events or here at home.
Wow...I can't believe people thought $8 was too high! I think I'll say $20 and if people don't want to pay that, then Oh well! I'll just stick to making them for family! Thanks for the responses!!
One thing I've learn over the years selling vegetables and baked goods at the Farmer Markets is Price High, you can always come down, if you price low its hard to raise your prices, just a suggestion.
I'd pay $20, if it is good like you said, people will pay the price.
I'd say $10-15 personally. Definitely wouldn't go for less, but would be nice to get more.
I have been selling mine for $10, which is probably a few dollars low, but this seemed like a fair price for now. As far as a yule log, they are being sold for $20 to cover costs of the chocolate.
Doesn't price also depend upon the size of the roll?
yes it does felin, exactly -- and many other factors of course --
although this post is almost ten years old too so the prices quoted are too old really to compare to today --
but on a little different pumpkin tangent -- i've seen some of the magazines at the grocery store already pumping out the pumpkin recipes already and i'm trying real hard not to get tired of it like i did last year -- pumpkin this pumpkin that -- pumpkin jello and pumpkin cola , pumpkin yogurt, pumpkin brisket, pumpkin watermelon, pumpkin burgers, pumpkin fries, omg i got a little cranky with it kwim hahahaha
and for delicious feet, try pumpkin foot gel
oh no you di-ent, mimifix, hahahahahaha!
I read about it here: Pumpkin Pedicures
omg-- I was completely kidding -- i made all mine up -- I can't believe there really is a pumpkin pedi thing -- well on second thought -- I guess I really do and that's my problem as stated but it's only August, pumpkin peeps --
aghh --let the pumpkin onslaught begin! << fried pumpkin

ESPN soccer commentator Alexi Lalas at auction purchased Geraldo Rivera's mustache and had it dyed ginger.
This is important to note because only a guy working in a growing sport could pay those kind of prices. If you doubt that, take a look at some of Lalas' looks from when soccer was the red-headed step-child in America.
Remember the earlier days of Major League Soccer when Lalas was running around looking like a bicycle-kicking ginger Jesus. Of course you don't; nobody watched the MLS until Drew Carey bought a team.
That led to PlayStation Lalas. Who even has a PlayStation anymore? Aren't we up to like PS9 by now?
After that, we get Serie A Lalas, the first American in the modern era to play in the top Italian league. The difference is all in hair and beard length.
One thing you have to be careful of is the ease…

Wow. Well, I did prefer that Senator Lincoln Chafee win his race — but also know that Sheldon Whitehouse is considered by many to be a great candidate.
I very much hope that Whitehouse continue the same course on foreign policy that Chafee bravely pursued this year.
While I am bummed, my significant other is thrilled.
So much for internal poll numbers!!
Now. . .what about those teasers in Virginia and Missouri. This could be a blow-out. The Dems have lost none of their key races yet.

Letchworth bookshop celebrate The Bible with reading marathon
PUBLISHED: 08:47 03 April 2011
A BOOKSHOP in Letchworth GC has gathered an army of volunteers who aim to read the whole of The Bible in around 80 hours.
The Christian Bookshop in Leys Avenue will host the event which will see volunteers read out loud to visitors in the shop for 15 minutes before passing onto the next person over a two-week period leading up to Easter.
Named Word Aloud, the recital celebrates the 400th anniversary of the first commissioned English Bible, also known as the Authorised or King James version.
Mike Foster, shop manager, said: "We are excited about the opportunity to celebrate a book that has been such an important influence on society in this nation and abroad for so long. We welcome people to just come to listen or take part."
Word Aloud starts on Saturday, April 9, at 2.30pm and carries on during shop opening hours until the whole book - from front to back - has been read.

>In the late 1950s, Erkin Koray was renowned as the first Turkish musician to introduce rock music in the nation, embracing electric guitar in an era where traditional Middle Eastern instrumentation still mandated popular music. A decade later, he commandeered psychedelic prog rock—in addition to becoming controversial just because he had long hippie hair. Coolio!
In 1971, in Cannes, he chummed around with John Lennon and Yoko Ono, later being compared in Turkey for as being as much an influential innovator in rock music, also compared to Jimi Hendrix and Jimmy Page.
Last week, 69-year-old Koray was in the States, in search of signing with an indie American label to propel his legacy West, and held meetings at the Jersey City home of Ayhan's longtime friends Serap and Kamu. Also in attendance: our talented buddy Emre Yilmaz and pianist Can.Above, Can, Ayhan, Koray, Emre.

History could be about to repeat itself in the worst possible way for David Platt (Jack P Shepherd) in Coronation Street as Shona Ramsey (Julia Goulding) may be left for dead in a horrifying showdown with her armed son Clayton Hibbs (Callum Harrison).
Clayton is already responsible for the death of David's beloved wife Kylie and it's for that crime that he was serving a prison sentence for. But now he is on the loose after escaping and, having tried to persuade Clayton to hand himself in to the police, Shona is in danger as Clayton gets desperate when armed cops surround the building.
With Clayton holding a knife, David waits outside anxiously, terrified that he is going to lose Shona. Inside the building. Shona manages to distract Clayton and kick the knife from him. Making a bid to escape, Shona emerges but is shaken by the sea of gun toting policeman that she is faced with so instinctively runs back inside as David looks on, horrified.
Shona is back in Clayton's clutches and the situation gets more serious as an altercation unfolds. Shona emerges from the building once more, her clothes soaked in blood and she falls to the ground – has she been stabbed or does the blood belong to Clayton?
David rushes over as the paramedics attempt to help Shona but is it too late? Both Shona and Clayton are rushed to A&E but will one of them die?
And is David set to lose the woman he loves to Clayton's violence all over again?
One to watch: Monday 4th March at 7:30pm on ITV.

( www.DianneCraft.org) to find ways to
help her on the skills she struggles with.
The little guy hasn't officially started
school yet, but I'm already wondering
what other homeschooling plans of mine
I'll get to "modify" as we discover his
strengths and weaknesses. Each child is
"fearfully and wonderfully made" as an
individual designed by the hand of God,
and I truly believe homeschooling is the
only way to meet the unique needs of
each of my children.
Some working homeschool moms
get up early before the kids are awake. I
can't do that. So I stay up late. And, yes,
my kids are usually out of bed before I
am. There, I've confessed it. I feel guilty
sometimes when I'm working because
I'm not spending time with my kids or
husband . . . and I feel guilty when I'm
spending time with the kids or husband,
because I'm not working.
It's definitely a trade-off, and there are
days I want to quit—homeschooling, editing, even mothering. But isn't that true of
every job and every life at different times?
There will always be good days and challenging days, no matter what job you
have or don't have, whether your kids are
toddlers or teens. Prayer, a solid night's
sleep, and reflection on the myriad blessings I enjoy usually improve my perspective in short order.
I would never be able to work from
home as much as I do without the support of both my husband, who takes
on typical "household" duties when
I'm trying to meet a deadline, and kids
who (though still in training) can do the
dishes, laundry, and keep the little guy
entertained. My wonderful in-laws also
step in and take the kids for a few hours
when I'm really crunched for time.
If you work from home, don't try to
do it alone. The whole family (minus
babies, of course) can pitch in. Maybe
you'll need to hire a neighbor girl to
watch your young ones for a few hours.
Maybe you'll need to negotiate some
extra chores for your old-enough kids.
And, maybe you can trade babysitting
or do meal-sharing with another working mom.
I'm incredibly grateful that my job
brings income to our family, great satisfaction to me, and still lets me keep my
kids at "home where they belong."

Overtime isn't necessarily bad. In fact, it can help organizations through treacherous times and is a great way for manufacturers to buckle up and meet variable/ seasonal demands for their products or services. But all the advantages are only for organizations that can effectively keep overtime under control. Overtime can also be the death of a company if it's not implemented correctly. It's all about your HR department's expertise and the overtime management strategy utilized.
Using Overtime Strategically!
Effective overtime management can create flexibility and practically pays for itself. Overtime management is the perfect way of ensuing optimum inventory levels while also maintaining exemplary customer service. The more on-demand production environment efficiently handles any sudden spikes in demand giving your company the ability to compete more aggressively. Overtime can translate into lower prices and shorter lead times, making it a valuable business tool.
But How Much Overtime Is Too Much?
The amount of overtime contributed by each employee may be limited by the health and safety conditions that dictate your industry. Or the terms for overtime work may be dictated in your employees' union contract. Whatever the case may be, management must understand the negative impacts of too much overtime and limit the time worked by everyone, ideally to no more 53 hours each week.
Planning Your Approach to Overtime Management
If overtimes are a frequent occurrence in your company, it is a good idea to start off with an overtime audit. This audit will let you exactly how many hours are overtime each month, which employees are willing to benefit from it regularly and if they have come to expect it as a regular part of their income. An overtime audit will help you realize the economic and cultural importance of overtime within your organization.
Analyze how overtime is currently used, both economically and culturally. How many hours of overtime are used per month? Which employees take advantage of it, and how effectively? Has it become an expected part of their income?
Use the results of the audit to find out the major periods of time when overtime becomes a necessity and plan accordingly. Creating a formal strategy to combat the occurrence of overtime will make it a less stressful and more streamlined process at your workplace.
Setting Limits to How Much Overtime Each Person Gets
In each organization, there are few employees who are always willing to share the burden. They voluntarily agree to work overtime. But letting everyone work as much as they want to, will not only drive your overtime costs insanely high, but it will also affect their health. It may also lead to motivational issues due to being completely burned out.
Experts agree that for shift workers, 300 to 350 hours worked per year are reasonable enough for overtime.
It is also a good idea to conduct an organization-wide survey, asking specific questions about how overtime can be better handled at the office. It will let you understand how the majority feels and may even help you score some innovative strategies to enhance your organization's overtime culture.
Also consider the reasons your organization needs overtime frequently. Consider investing in new hires if these reasons aren't going away anytime soon. Let the overtime costs go towards training to ensure that you have well-trained staff ready to take on the future with you.
Overtime can be more expensive than hiring, and even if they cost the same for your organization, there are also the hidden costs of overextending employees. So it is a good idea to hire when going overboard on the overtime!
In a unionized work environment, union contracts usually dictate the overtime rules. But you can effectively control overtime costs with unionized staff as well by using principled negotiation tactics and integrative bargaining skills during the contract talks.
If you are facing difficulties implementing a satisfactory overtime program, maybe WorkTech can help. Contact us today to learn more.

You're Beautiful...
Over the years my idea of beauty has changed drastically. I'm sure yours has as well, how has it changed? Can you remember the first person you thought was beautiful? Why? What made them beautiful? Mine was my mother, when I was a little girl I thought she was the most beautiful woman in the world. As I got older... I still thought that... though I admit, I admired actresses, singers, and models as well. But my mother has always been beautiful to me, not because she's a model, a beauty queen, or any of that. She's beautiful because her soul is beautiful. She is warm, funny, sweet... one of those people who glows with the beauty of a real woman. One who will stop and help a stranger, who will do anything for a friend, drop everything for a loved one who needs her... Beautiful.
The last year or so, since I've become a member of this blogging/crafting/beading/artisan community... I have met so many women with that beauty. That soul beauty. That incredible warmth, that joy of spirit, the generosity... and they have all been so inspiring to me. They make my world a brighter place, give me a reason to be glad, help me keep my Pollyanna spirit up (as one of these ladies, the wonderful Janice of JLynn Jewels) and I like to call it.
So, as my mind has been pondering this this evening... I have decided I'm going to attempt to share with you all throughout this year... some of these beautiful souls I have met. The first one I will attempt to get up this week. I already know who I want to feature, but I think I should probably ask first ;).
I should be sleeping right now... my kids get up early! I'm going to leave you with a handful of my new pieces :) Sweet dreams! (Or Good Morning! )

Your post makes me happy. I think there needs to be more celebration of real beauty. The sort of beauty that doesn't come from a manicure and hair dye, but from kindness.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the inspiration!Replies
What a delightful post! Not only are YOU beautiful, but your jewelry is beautiful as well. You are beauty squared! =D I hope we someday get a chance to meet in person because I would love to experience that kind and joyful spirit of yours first hand!

Oh, Lola! Thank you so much! You are so kind to me! I hope we get to meet too!!! It would be so wonderful to meet you! You are definitely one of the women I was talking about! <3 <3Delete
Ahh - my sweet Polyanna Soul Sister...I am SO HAPPY to have "met" you in this vast e-world of people. It is truly amazing to me to "find" people (like you) that are kindred spirits isn't it? Whenever I read your posts no matter who's wall or blog they may be on...you always make me smile. And despite whatever hardships or storms we may have to go through...it's so comforting to know that there is someone there that totally "gets" it and understands. Comfort and Kindess has no bounds. And this type of "beautiful" is the kind that has no doubts or harbors resentments either. It simply just "is" - and I'm so happy to have found that in you...<3 - is any wonder why people love your jewelry too? Afterall...our Art is an extension of what lies within us - the Beauty and Kindness <3ReplyDelete
Big hugs - and thanks for making me smile today - Love you!
((((HUGS)))) Oh, Janice, you made me cry! Thank you, I feel exactly the same way about you! I am just so happy to have a friend in you, you make my world a brighter place... I am so so GLAD to have you in my life! I love you so, sweet friend. Let us spread our gladness!! <3 <3Delete
Well Polyanna Justman, you can thank your mother for passing on that inner beauty and Grace to her daughter because that's what I see in you. Always something positive and uplifting to say and a spirit of generosity. You may have to feature yourself!ReplyDeleteReplies
Awww, Lesley! Thank you, thank you, you are so sweet to me! (((HUGS))) You are definitely one of the women who has shown me such inspiration and generosity! <3 <3 <3Delete

I am super duper happy!! If you didn't know, I was going on about how my package from this shop who keeps their stock in two different states last week. The package took about 10days to travel between states and be assembled before it could be sent out.
The girls packed this package much better than the last I would say. Still no box or padded envelope but at least it's in a medium flyer instead of a large flyer this time. And they did take more time to separate the bottles with bubble wrap.
Anyways I got some Glitter Gal polishes as well as a few OPIs in this order. I believe that these colors from GGs have been discontinued though. If I do fall in love with any of them I am gonna be so so sad! 😦

For John, BLUF: With snap elections the weird ideas come out. Nothing to see here; just move along.
This is from The Guardian and Reporters Ewen MacAskill and Toby Helm, on Saturday, but the lead-in was from Samizdata and a Blog Post by Ms Natalie Solent, titled "Zero tolerance".
Great is the rejoicing among most of the Guardian commentariat at the news that the Shadow Chancellor, John McDonnell, has said that if it wins the election the Labour party will outlaw all zero-hours contracts.A "zero-hour contract" means no commitment to provide hours to workers or for workers to work the hours provided.
It turns out not everyone wishes to be protected by the nanny state. And not all businesses thrive on the 40 hour work week—like newspapers, with stringers.
Hat tip to Samizdata.
Regards — Cliff
