Since it is obviously incongrous with the rest of the States Rights and Slavery thread, I guess I should step out of the shelter of said thread to continue with the "author bias" train of thought, which started with this exchange: Ole: " Among the stable of published historians, name one who writes with a bias." Me: James M. McPherson. Rightfully, Ole asked me defend this charge, and we had a couple more back-and forth's. Maybe no one but Ole and I are interested in this one, so I'll start slow, but I already have plenty more in my arsenal. Simply this to begin with: in the preface to The Illustrated Battle Cry of Freedom, page XIII, the iconic McPherson states, ".....I have chosen a narrative framework to tell my story and point it's moral" (italics mine). Since when is it the unbiased historian's job to openly moralize? I do think of McPherson as more a socialogist than historian, but that is a relatively small point. Anyway, there's my opener, can continue on if called on to do so. Joanie Last edited on Sat Dec 1st, 2007 01:23 am by JoanieReb |

So, TD, are you agreeing with me, disagreeing with me, or just stating a fact for further discussion to build on? Any which way, glad to have some interest shown! Ole and I previously discussed the inevitability of bias in any historical account, and what constituted a notable bias. Should I pull out the related posts from The SR&S thread, or just leave it as be? |

I'm saying that since history is written from a point of view, some degree of: "author bias" will always exist. |

Yes, Agreed, TD. Last Wednesday, in reply to Ole, in the SR&S thread, I wrote, "Now, academically, let me point out that by human nature, every person is biased. We are subjective by nature, there is no such thing as a truly "objective observer". Even every good set of scientific data must have it's "bias" calculated. The questions to ask with each historian are: where is his/her bias?, how does he/she deal with it? and, how severe is it?" (Yeeks, feels weird quoting myself). Does this work for you? And then comes the question, at which point does a bias become a notable bias? (I liked being hidden in the shadows of the SR&S thread when it comes to this, but it just didn't jive with the other posts...) |

The historian that publishes must keep his bias(es) under control whenever they start to raise their pointy little heads. We all are aware of our conscious biases (or at least we should be); but when writting history it is vitally important that the author constantly self-edit the work-in-progress to deal with the inevitable unconscious bias that will seep into the work. After completion of the first draft, review by "disinterested" peers and a really good editor is essential. |

Name one published historian with a notable bias? How about Michael Bellesiles? He was a historian at Emory who published Arming America: The Origins of a National Gun Culture. It was awarded the bancroft prize by Columbia University? Hailed as a revolutionary piece of work, it challenged conventional wisdom about the status of firearms in American culture. Basically, the author asserted that firearms were not prevelant in colonial through mid 1800's (through the colonial years in fact, till the aftermath of the Civil War)-and even then not to the point many would believe. Unfortunately for this much heralded, respected historian his radically different claims, when compared to the status quo up till that time, drew too much attention from others of a different view. While gun control groups were too busy praising the work to question its merits, pro-gun groups and other historians were checking facts. In the end, it was found that Mr. Bellesiles had either skewed sources to back up his claims, or made them up entirely. As a result, even the gun control groups that had so loved his conclusions could not ignore the massive fraud that had taken place, and he was stripped of his awards and the book publisher halted circulation. Now, this is certainly an extreme example, but that does not mean we cannot take lessons from it. |

Kentucky Orphan has brought up an excellent but extreme example. It's difficult to vet who is objective and who is not. For me the biases that stick out are Dilorenzo and his outright fabrications, distortians and creative editing. Frankly though he is who stands out. I can think of no other that I would consider a reputable author exhibiting bias. Over the years I've heard Sword, Edwards, Glathaar Trudeau and others described as having both a Southern or Northern bias depending upon who was talking. Most of what I've seen are examples of someone not liking what was written claiming bias. I gurantee in certain circles anything at all that Ole or I would say would be considered anti southern. Heck I've been referred to as the anti christ by some. Me? And I even admit I'm a touch to the right of Genghis Khan! We've had threads like this on several boards in the past and they always seem to go nowhere. |

Glad to see this thread take off so quickly - it should be a good one. I will most likely just sit back and learn, except for one comment. I think it's vital that we differentiate when the bias is, in fact, the author's and when it may be the reader's. A bias in the reader may well cause him to claim an author's bias when none exist. Just a pothole to look out for. Edit: Sorry Johan, I see now you touched on that above. Good point. |

I think it's vital that we differentiate when the bias is, in fact, the author's and when it may be the reader's. Ah, but it is a two-way street, both author and reader are biased. Believe I touched on the idea of "over-lapping biases" in the SR&S thread. We may be thinking that the most unbiased author is the one whom shares our own biases. Whether I agree with an author or not, I get warning flags when I run into one whom wants to do all my thinking for me, lead me by the nose, so to speak..... |

BTW, I wish to say that while this is a good topic for debate, I think that I have done Ole a disservice by making him out to be less insightful and more rigid than I meant to when I moved this discussion from the SR&S thread. Ole gives me leaway and lets me joke and tease, and this all started out in fun mode, with an underlying seriousness. I believe that Ole and I respect each other though we often disagree, and he gave me acedemic freedom to express myself, and I accidently may have misrepresented a bit of his original humor here as narrow-mindedness. Sorry, Ole, I guess I didn't translate to this thread well. Never-the-less, Ole, it is a good debate, and I would be happy to carry it on, just please accept my apologies if I made you seem less "ept" than you were being. Which was very "ept". Thank you, Joanie Last edited on Sat Dec 1st, 2007 07:45 am by JoanieReb |

Many, many years ago back in the dark ages when I was a college senior majoring in history I was required to take a class in Research in American History. One of the requirements was to read certain books and articles and critique them or take part in a class discussion. One of the books we read was John Hope Franklin's The Militant South A book that list the factors and causes of the South's agression that contributes to the outbreak of war in 1861. He outlines the idea that the South was dominated by militant white men who resorted to violence if faced with social, personal or political conflict. All of this is backed up with research from newspapers, letters and personal memoirs. We all read the book and started discussing it in class. Now this was a small college with in the Los Angeles area but with a Southern church background. The arguments were flying back and forth. The professor at some point stopped us and said, Would it help your discussion if you knew the author was a Negro?(this was another time period long long ago). He then pointed out to us how important it is to know your author . To know why he is writing what he is writing and where he is coming from with his writing . I can't tell you how many times since then I have looked up information about the authors of the books I have read to see who the author is. Just so you know also that book has stuck with me all these years , still makes an impression on me today. I can't remember most of the books I read in my history classes back then but I remember that one . I also do remember always Dr. White's advice to us "know who is writing the book you are reading ." Just my two cents worth . Susan |

So please someone, put forward what makes any of these authors biased & why. |

It seems that too many people get hung up on the term "bias" simply because it's seen as bad form to inject opinion into historical writing, but I would hold that not only is it necessary but a valuable service the author can offer. If I write that on April 14, 1865 Abraham Lincoln was shot and killed while watching a play in Ford's Theater, no one can accuse me of being biased because that's an acknowledged fact. However, if I add that Lincoln's own fatalistic view of life contributed to his murder because he wouldn't have a bodyguard, that delves into the realm of opinion, but I can back it up based on the research I've read and papers I've studied. So my "bias" is that Lincoln contributed to his own death, but it hopefully provokes discussion. But I also think that the crap put out by DiLorenzo, Tripp, etc., where one might say that they are obviously against Lincoln from the outset, or in the case of Tripp has an agenda to push, is just as important if only for the discussion they provoke. It does us good to have our opinions shaked and challenged every now and then if only to make us research and study even more. Shelby Foote's work is biased toward the Southern point of view, but it isn't any less valuable because of that. C. Vann Woodward was often viewed as a traitor to his section because he pointed out the heresy that Jim Crow wasn't an entrenched system so it couldn't be changed, but he himself was pleased to see this because of the discussion it prompted. Woodward even took to revising himself and encouraged those critics (see C. Vann Woodward, "Strange Career Critics: Long May They Persevere," Journal of American History 75 (December 1988), 862). I admit here that I have a bias in favor of Woodward simply because after receiving my degree in history, and pondering a turn as a graduate student, I wrote Woodward a letter and this world-class scholar actually took the time to respond (and typed the letter himself, as there are mistakes throughout). So bias doesn't bother me, at least not in the way it seems to bother others. The only problem (and it's a biggie) is when someone reads only one author and then closes his or her mind to other interpretations. James McPherson is, in my opinion, one of the legends of the field, but until Battle Cry of Freedom is updated, he will likely lose his standing as the greatest living Civil War historian simply because the field is constantly changing and interpretations are being revised. Ahh, history, long may it persevere! Does any of this make sense? Best Rob |

Johan- In the case of James M. McPherson, for example, it is easy to see why some view him as having an anti-southern bias due to his political views. In a 1999 interview, he basically said that those promoting and supporting the Museum of the Confederacy were white supremacists. He later attempted to clarify by saying that only some of those in organizations such as the UDC and SCV have a hidden agenda of white supremacy, and they might not even be aware of it, etc. The Museum, itself, he apparently no longer has a problem with. But, apparently, he still links racism to some of its supporters. That could well be true in some cases, as in any large group of people, but he taints all supporters of the Museum, those in the mentioned organizations or not, with his statements. James M. McPherson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia As McPherson said in his statements, people might not even be aware of the biases that they have. Perhaps he is aware of his own, or at least the possibility that they exist. My position is that they do exist, for him as well as for everybody else. Not only is history told from a point of view, but those who read history have their own biases as well. Whether in the case of McPherson, that his possibly anti-southern bias shows up in his writings and can be detected, I cannot say. You could assemble a panel of experts to explore that question, but it would be a meaningless exercise. You could not find such a group of people who could be totally objective. All that you and I can do is to try to give as close as possible a consideration of what we read, and how it effects what we believe. In the end, we must decide how much credibility to give to it based on the author's point of view, as well as our own. |

As BigPowell noted above: "We all are aware of our conscious biases (or at least we should be); but when writting history it is vitally important that the author constantly self-edit the work-in-progress to deal with the inevitable unconscious bias that will seep into the work. After completion of the first draft, review by "disinterested" peers and a really good editor is essential." This is absolutely critical. Let's see if I can coherently transmit this from my brain to the post. The historian is telling a story and providing an interpretation of available facts (hopefully with some new ones turned up during his/ her research). Much like a lawyer, the historian builds a case for the story they want to tell based on facts. Unacknowledged personal bias weakens this case by bringing into question the author's interpretation of the facts and whether or not the author considered all of the available facts or only those supporting his/ her position. As several have already pointed out, some bias is inevitable. As BigPowell pointed out, a professional historian should take steps to eliminate it as much as possible. I think after this the author has be self-aware and honest enough to admit any residual bias and admit it so the reader can take it into account when they read the work. I think the author owes this to the reader. The reader of course should do the same thing with their own bias when reading the work. I would also point out that an even-handed treatment of the facts can lead to problems as well. In a very well researched but poorly narrated book that I just finished, the author spent so much space and energy on a consideration of every available fact concerning an event that the book ended without a coherent narration of the event! |

Jumping back two posts.... Sigh. As ususal, Texas Defender, You have been a bit too knowledgable, reasonable, and insightful, and so have taken the thread to a higher level. To speak Northern (I like to practice it!) : Wadda we gonna do with you? Anyway, it's still a fun debate, even if you did take it to the most logical position.

I'm lucky enough to have handled one of Pierre's razors, and let me tell you, they're pretty damn incredible.
Pierre -- is that up for sale, or are you just showing off?
David (WildBoar's Kitchen)
A knife.
I am putting my self on the line, and learning as much as I can as fast as I can as far as razors are concerned.
HT's for any given steel is the same whether knife or razor. Goal hardness may differ. Grinding is a complete rethink. Its similar to going from a hunting knife to a kitchen knife, as going from a kitchen knife to a razor. Grinding is a whole other issue. The thinness of the edge, doesn't leave a lot of wiggle room to prevent a grind through, on top of that you are grinding in a hollow, you cant see as easily, and its so thin, you have to be careful of heat so as not to wreck the temper. You have a couple hundred degrees , but in thin as foil steel, it can get there in seconds. as well all your belt covers 2/3's of the blade! so concentration becomes important.
Hey, I had to ask -- if it was for sale I was interested. But I figured you were just showing off...
David (WildBoar's Kitchen)
Patience, David!

With a sporty leather and mesh upper for year-round, all-around versatility, the Kimtah Mesh never met a trail it didn't like. Or a foot. It's a men's waterproof trail shoe that's super-comfortable from Day 1, with Mush Infused and ShocPad® cushioning underneath, full support above, and a roomy toe box to let your dogs breathe. The waterproof T.I.D.E. Seal membrane keeps weather and mud from getting in, and the Spider365 rubber sole keeps you from going down.
T.I.D.E. Grip- Our Spider365 Rubber sole will hold its grip in all kinds of environments.
- An aggressive lug design for grip on loose terrain.
- Our T.I.D.E. Seal waterproof membrane will keep your feet dry as you trek through water.
- Waterproof leather upper.
- Full grain leather lining.
- A soft Shoc Pad™ in the heel gives you serious shock absorption.
Weight: 15.9oz
Spider 365™
One rubber, huge range of uses. Spider365 Rubber is the spork of our rubber arsenal.
T.I.D.E Seal™
The best way to make sure your feet dry quickly? Make sure they don't get wet in the first place. T.I.D.E Seal membranes will seal out the water (get it?) and keep you high and dry.
Shoc Pad™
You wouldn't ride a bike without a seat. The same logic applies for our Shoc Pad™ technology, which will give you a smooth ride without inhibiting your performance.
Mush® Infused Insole
Now we're not necessarily splicing Mush® genes back in the T.I.D.E Lab to build a hybrid mutant insole, but we do have an insole that's worthy of the Mush name.

However towards the end of the day my head started hurting, and I think it was the wrap. So maybe a little small for my melon, but I like the material and will try it out again on the next ride, maybe it streched some.

Bomb kills 1 outside mosque in southwest Pakistan | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
CHAMAN, Pakistan (AP) -- Police say a bomb has exploded outside a mosque in southwest Pakistan, killing at least one person. Local police official Shafqat Mehmood says Thursday's bombing in the town of Chaman bordering Afghanistan wounded another 17 people, as well as destroying some shops and vehicles parked there. No one immediately claimed responsibility and Mehmood says they were still investigating to determine who could be behind the attack. Chaman is a main border town in southwestern Baluchistan, where small separatist groups have waged an insurgency to get more wealth from resources like natural gas and oil extracted from the impoverished province. It is also believed to be a hiding place for Pakistani militants and Afghan Taliban. © 2013 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

The 85th Academy Awards show will have a new category this year, and hairstylists are glad that recognition is finally being given to their efforts. The new category, named "The Makeup and Hairstyling Award," now recognizes the hairdressers and the talent that they bring to the wide screen.
The campaign to create a new hairstyling category began over a year ago. Angelina Jolie's hairstylist Ted Gibson started a campaign on Facebook called We Need an Oscar for Hair. The Facebook page caused the Academy to reconsider the way that it honors hairdressers for their contributions to major films.
In the past, the Academy gave out an award to beauty professionals called the "Best Makeup" award. That was the only award that hairstylists could possibly receive for their efforts in contributing to the beautiful appearances of celebrities in films. While Ted Gibson is excited for the change in the name, he believes that this is only a "great start" and that additional categories still need to be created that are specific to hairstylists.
Some actors and actresses in Hollywood also seem to believe that hairdressers deserve greater recognition from the Academy. In her award speech, Meryl Streep gave credit to her hairstylist for her work in The Iron Lady. Meryl Streep said she would likely not have won her award for her role in The Iron Lady if she had just appeared on set without any hair or makeup done. Hairstylists provide a very important service for celebrities.
Ever since the announcement was made that the makeup category would be renamed to honor hairstylists, hairstylists have been expressing their feelings about the change in the Facebook group. Hairstylists have been saying that as much as they are thrilled with the change in the name, it simply is not enough. They are saying that the Academy needs to create its own category for hairstylists and that they deserve to be recognized for the hours of intensive coloring and styling that they do for celebrities in films. Films like Marie Antoinette would not have been complete without the expertise of experienced hairdressers in creating gorgeous hair styles.
If the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences wants to provide greater recognition for hairstylists, then it could make it a point to include a new category that awards hairstylists for their work. Beauty professionals and film professionals alike are saying that the Academy should give makeup artists and hairstylists the recognition that they deserve in their own independent categories. Without them, celebrities could not look as beautiful as they do on the runway and as convincing as they do on the silver screen.

We are very excited to be presenting our first round of ArtScroll ebooks to the public. I am sure many of you are wondering – what about the other ebook devices on the market – why just the iBooks app – which only works on the iPhone, iPad and iTouch. What about Kindle?
Here is the inside scoop:
Sorry I don't speak Hebrew:
I have been testing various dedicated ebook readers for the past 10 years for ArtScroll – I still have my original RocketReader (paperweight anyone?)! We have watched the technology slowly evolve over the years – but until the iPad and iBooks application came out – we simply did not have a platform that could support ALL of the ArtScroll publications. This is due to one critical factor – Hebrew – ArtScroll's best selling books have Hebrew in them – and lots of it – and the current popular eReaders on the market (like Kindle and Nook) don't support Hebrew. Hebrew on these eReaders either looks like a bunch of little squares or the letters are backwards and there is no Nikkud – the little vowel marks.
Our goal was simple – find a device that supported interspersed Hebrew and English (Right to left and Left to Right characters) in the same paragraph – with the Nikkud (vowel marks) – with resizable and reflowable text. The iBooks family of devices do this! Finally we can present Hebrew English books with Nikkud – that can be resized and reflowed on a massively popular platform. There are still some minor aesthetic issues with the positioning of the Nikkud on the ibooks devices – but it is functional and correct.
It's just too complicated for me to handle:
But our real dream is to have the classic ArtScroll texts like the Talmud, Torah, Tanach, Siddur and other translated works in digital format – these just cant be presented on the Kindle and the Nook! Firstly they don't support Hebrew and secondly the page layout is too complex for these devices. For example, a page of the Stone Chumash has 5 different text blocks that have to be kept in sync with each other in order to work properly – the Kindle and Nook can't support that level of complexity.
I am just way too insecure:
Did you know that you can find instructions online on how to hack a Kindle book and remove its security protection in about 30 seconds? It is no secret that Kindle books aren't secure – you may not know how to – but there are many thousands of people that do. So why don't other publishers care? We assume its because the lifespan of the average mass-market book is not very long – its here today and gone tomorrow – read it once and done! What about a Chumash or a volume of the Talmud – these books have a shelf life of a lifetime – if not multiple generations. This makes ArtScroll books a high value target for hackers. We are committed to protect the intellectual property of our authors and to safeguard the enormous investment put into the classic works that we have produced over the years.
The iBookstore is secure (at least for today) and we feel that the rights of our authors are being properly protected.
This is clearly an evolving market. We are working to produce all of our books in digital format. But one thing we do know for sure – as of today there are 120,000,000 devices in the world that will support the reading of the first round of ArtScroll ebooks – and there will be more to come.

Possessionista: What are you obsessing over right now?
Thanks for the interview! Her sweet personality makes her even prettier, IMHO. I have a feeling that she's going to be talked about for quite some time! Any scoop on how she and Brad are doing?
I am obsessed with your blog & Em's fashion. LOVE this–great surprise this morning! =) Thanks so much!
Great interview. She is so sweet. She needs to blog herself. So according to People magazine, Brad gave her those Cartier bracelets, which she states mean the world to her.
Enjoyed reading the interview, her personality really comes through in her classic, lady like personality. She is a great roll model for her daughter.
Reading this and drinking my coffee was the best way to wake up this morning! Thanks!
LOVE her! She is so beautiful and classy. It's such a treat to hear her beauty secrets Thanks so much for the interview!
PLEASE give us a step by step tutorial on the hair, Emily!!!
FINALLY!! This was an amazing interview. You are the greatest :)
Great interview. Thanks so much! Emily is so beautiful inside and out!
she sounds so fake – all her louboutin shoes she claims to have to save up to buy? please…that girl doesn't have to save for anything and i hardly think she gives a second thought to dropping a grand on shoes. just be honest emily – you got knocked up by multi millionaire, and now you are set for life. Why don't you go to college and get a degree to set a good example for your daughter – the only difference between Emily and any other unmarried knocked up TEENAGER (that's what she was) is that she has money. besides that fact they are all the same. GET a REAL Job, go to college, and make something out of yourself, so you can say you did it, not it was GIVEN to me.
wow the previous poster is obviously very jealous, if they think emily is so terrible then why did they take the time to read the interview??? Emily has a real job,and how do you know she didnt go to college? I for one think she sets a great example for her daughter and looks like a great mom. hmmm can you say jealous stalker? Previous poster maybe you are the one that needs to get a real job and get your fat butt off your computer and put away the donuts your probably just very angry because you will never be as pretty and classy as emily
Keep the negative comments to yourself! As your mother maybe did if not should have taught you "if you have nothing nice to say then don't say anything at all!"
I recently discovered your blog and am obsessed! Loved this interview and all of the scoop on Emily's fashion you've revealed recently
I've always been obsessed with your blog, but now that you have so many Emily outfits and this interview from her – I can't get enough of the Possensionista!!
Thanks for the interview, Emily! Your daughter was adorable too, by the way!
Great interview enjoyed it! What a wonderful lady such class.
Glad that you are such a great example for your daughter! Can't keep the world happy so don't even try. Stay in your bubble when the darts come!
I sense jealousy…obviously your guy is tight with the wallet
If it was a one night thing than why were they together four years and lived together????? so many jealous people out there if you dont like emily then why are you reading about her fashion?? Obviously the haters have nothing better to do than obsess and read about who they dont like. Go get a life haters and realize maybe its not emily you should be judging but yourself.
CORI is a liar who is trying to get publicity!!! These links prove Emily is telling the truth! Including a photo with her, rick and the engagement ring he gave her!! hate all you want haters doesnt change the facts and photos of proof!!
loved the interview Possessionista! We Love Emily!
whats with the posts of negativity? Really? Why did you even bother coming the the site? Don't you have a life of your own to quit neglecting by obsessing over Emily's?
I don't get it, why are some of these people getting too personal? Obviously, this interview had nothing to do with all of that so keep the negativity to yourself.
Anyway, great interview! Thanks Possessionista! I love Emily for her honesty and she's such a classy woman. Beautiful in & out! I hope little Ricki realizes how lucky she is to have such a caring and wonderful mother.
Now, I'm missing my mom!!
lol. I've never read such b/s in my life. Little Miss Rich and her Cartier and $985.00 shoes. The Hendrick money has paid for all of it.
looks like cori was posting on here lol thank you people who are backing emily up with facts anyway back to the fashion the interview is great Emily and her fashion is great
Emily is so beautiful thank you for the interview
dana can you provide a link of where to get the Louboutin round toe mary janes, i looked them up and there so cute but i cant find the real ones only the fakes…
Thank you soo much Dana! You are truly the best! Em is such a sweet classy girl, and the interview was so nice I enjoyed so much! Keep up the good work.
Gosh I love this woman! She has totally become my style icon as well as one of my biggest idols. Love you Emily! And Possessionista I LOVE your blog. <3
FACT – Emily got knocked up at 18 or 19 (teenager) unmarried
FACT – never went to college
FACT – lives off of her parents money and her daughters trust fund
FACT – went on TV to find a man – disgusting
FACT – has fake teeth
FACT – has fake boobs
how is she a role model or mother teresa? i mean yes she is very beautiful, but besides her beauty, there is nothing extraordinary about this girl. she hasn't done anything in her life besides raise a child with A LOT of financial help from others. I mean there are single mothers out there that struggle everyday, going to school, working, and being a parent. She is not a saint people….but no one can see past her pretty looks.
Yay!!!! Thanks to both of you for this interview! I can't enough of Emily, she is so refreshing!!! She seems like she'd be an awesome person to know. Love love love her!
Love her! She is the best!
In reply to Brandy: You come off looking super jealous!! Emily's a wonderful mother who loves God, & loves her daughter. She never spoke unkindly about anyone on the show and is a super class act which is more than you can say about the majority of the female population. For the record, she has never proclaimed herself to be a saint but she sure is a breath of fresh air in the public spotlight compared to other reality stars/celebrities. I wish she had her own show so we could see more of her. God bless you Emily and your family!!!
fake teeth and boobs? who cares! they look great and MANY MANY people have fake boobs. Failing to see whats so horrible about that?? Didnt go to college? Who cares? lots of sucessful people didnt go to college she still has a great job. Why is there so many jealous people posting i dont get it. Take your negative selves out of here!
why do i feel like cori is posting all these negative comments??? hmmm
what job? she worked a few times as an event planner for the hospital. I am not jealous of her and I don't think badly of her, I just don't understand why people are putting her up on this pedestal. She is not anything special.
amber you said everything perfectly
and Brandy if you werent jealous you wouldnt put FACT emily has fake boobs. Who cares?? Whats wrong with fake boobs? Why put that on blast? tons of women have them including myself. Nothing is wrong with wanting to improve your looks. And if i had the money i would love to be a stay at home mom. Nothings wrong with that! Im sure her daughter loves it! Brandy are you sure your name isnt CORI? just saying…
NEGATIVE people stop posting and trying to bring other people down. This interview was for meant to be positive for those of us that like Emily style so we can learn more about it. Not an opportunity for you to bash her. If you dont like here than dont post about her because no one wants to hear it!
I love emily's style thanks for doing the interview it was great to learn more about it
how does Brandy know these facts? A little stalkerish…
Wow…the jealous haters have really come crawling out of the woodwork. are you sure we're discussing Emily Maynard and not Kate Gosselin here??? Now back to the important topic at hand…those Mary Jane Louboutins. Those are my absolute favorites and I also would love the scoop on them.
Yes please Dana, Mary Jane Louboutins are sooo cute info on them please
Great interview, it was fun to hear about her skin care routine and fashion tips. I started obagi nuderm after having skin problems and LOVE it. It has transformed my face, nice to hear she uses it too!
Thanks Dana, you rock!
To the FEW that have posted on here just to bash Emily, IT'S NOT WORKING! IF we (and we did) fell in love with Emily, YOU and your nonsense is NOT GOING TO CHANGE OUR OPINION OF HER!!! So go away because Emily is not, we LOVE her. But we can do without you and your type. With the same amount of money you couldn't hold a candle to the likes of Emily! Reason being it's more than her clothing and beauty that we love. It's what Brad fell for, EVERYTHING ABOUT HER.
dana! love your interviews "okay it's a fat day, what are you wearing?" lol love it! keep up the good work as always !!! ok seriously- are you going to ask her about her perfume yet? lol
Thanks so much for the interview! Love the necklace with 'Brad' and "ricki" on it! Love your blog and love Emily!
I adore Emily! She is a breath of fresh air in the ugly world of media, and I for one am always happy to read about her! And, btw, she's a mom … that's her "real job."
Absolutely amazing! Such poise and grace, she is like the friend every girl wishes they had! Love me some Emily!! I wish she had her own show!
Emily is my favorite. No one has ever caught my attention as much as her. Please, keep more Emily coming!
Finally!! Thank you for this interview!! Been waiting for it! Will you have one from chantal too?!
She has fantastic style–I'm inspired by how she mixes high end and Forever21 pieces. Thanks for the interview!
Has anybody seen a picture of Cori? No wonder she's jealous cause it's obvious she's been beaten with the ugly stick… beat hard too.
As far as Emily goes, people don't love her because of her looks, people love her in spite of her looks. 75% of the girls on the show were beautiful, but what made Emily stand out? She was genuine and not stuck-up and a sweet, kind soul.
It is obvious Emily loves her daughter more than life and you can bash her all you want but YOU'RE an idiot, period.
I love Emily! Awesome interview Dana! After readng this, I love her more. Brad is very lucky to have a beautiful (inside and out) woman by his side. Love Emily's style … need to get me some velcro rollers ASAP lol
Thank you. I love your blog and I love Emily and Brad. Emily is the girl next door so humble and has carried herself with great pride and class. Keep it up Emily. Thanks for sharing.
I think she's an absolute doll. Why else would all of us ladies be so intrigued by her? There will always be some thorns AKA the hatred amongst the roses. Great job Dana! Team Emily!!
Thank you for the interview with Emily! I and many others love hearing her tips/advice etc!
We love you EMILY!
I love this interview, so fun! Also the negativity needs to go! There is no need to put others down and try to find flaws in others! We should be an encouragement to others all the time! Emily, there will always be negativity, in everyones life, rather they are in the spotlight or not, but you handle it well! Keep holding that gorgeous head high, keep that huge heart of yours growing, keep being classy and respectable, you are a mom and I'm sure a great one..and its true that is a real and most important job anyone can have! However, you can't please everyone! Be yourself girls! And keep this amazing blog going..I'm hooked!
I didn't think I could like Emily anymore than I already did. . .and then I read this interview. Can I be Emily when I grow up? She's a good reminder to all of us that we need to always act like a lady- love that!
you guys are all pathetic. i can't wait until emily breaks up with brad and ends up with her own reality show, she will be the next kate gosselin minus the eight kids. she is just as selfish and fame hungry as anyone who appears on a REALITY SHOW to find love.
My husband & I both absolutly became Emily fans the minute she met Brad. There was just something so gracious about her. As each episode showed, it became obvious that there was something about her that kept drawing Brad to her. Like someone else said, she never badmouthed anyone else on the show, & LWys listened to others sob stories & tried to comfort. That is a sign of a very loving & caring person. We hoped Brad would pick her, & yeah we were right. Speaking from experience it is hard to find a man that will love & take care of another man's children, but I found one myself & 37 years we are still together. Brad has committed to little Ricki, & I think like my husband, that Brad will be a terriffic father to little Ricki. God bless the 3 of you, & hope you have a wonderful life together. Also like another post, I WAS taught that if you can't say anything good about a person, then don't say anything at all. Some of the best advice my mother ever gave me. Sounds like jealously then willing to bet it is jealousy, so they need to keep thier negative thoughts to themselves & leave this soon to be family alone.
Yay! Awesome interview! Thanks for posting this-I know that I've been curious (along with many other readers) what some of her "secrets" are. She seems super sweet! Some of the posters on the other hand seem to have woken up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. It's a fashion blog people. Get. a. grip.
Dana- you are the best ever! the only blog i read! You are so amazing!
Haters- to be quitee honest… i want fake teeth, i even tried to find the scoop on hers, because i want me some pearly whites as beautiful as hers! who cares… Emily has the hardest job of all, she is a momma. So she fell in love with a wealthy man, you cant choose who you are in love with!
So many of us fell in Love with Emily because of her class and grace, which made us look at her clothing. She is gorgeous, but she won America over by her good spirit. If you watch the whole season over, she NEVER says a bad word about ANYONE! I have never seen anyone else do that on any other bachelor in the past!
Emily- you are a beautiful gorgeous woman, and the reason why we all are crazy fans for you is because you seem to have an even more gorgeous soul! keep shinning! Cream rises to the top! Bless you and GOD bless Dana for her amazing work. you rock!
I think you are all equally ridiculous — Emily lovers and Emily haters.
Those of you who talk about Emily being beautiful inside and out, as well as those who are bashing her — what do you know anyway? All you know is Emily, the TV character who is presented in the media the certain way and/or that is written about in tabloids the certain way. Period.
The only FACT is that she is a pretty girl and that camera loves her. Everything else, good or bad, may or may not be true, and the truth is we will never know. And I, for one, couldn't care less.
As for the purpose of this blog: like some of the stuff she wore (mostly her accessories), but prefer Michele Money's style. Best dressed Bachelor(ette) girl so far for me — Gia.
thanks for the interview posessionista.
i'm asian and i love her style and the super cute finds she talks about as well as what she wore on the show.
keep interviewing her!!!
Yah! Emily, love love love her~
Thank you so much! I need to see the Mary Jane Louboutins!
Oh and to the handful of haters, suck salt!
Geez, I thought this was a fashion blog why is the moderator along all this ugliness?! Can we just get back to what matters — Emily's style
I'd love it if she could be a contributor on Possessionista!
Great interview Dana! I have been waiting for this. Great job. I'm just curious though; what did I miss about her perfume? I've seen several comments about that.
Emily said Michelle did their hair during the show.. Here is Michelle doing a step by step video of how to curl: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLcR2Ha3rQM&feature=share
they've broken up…the Hendrick funds are just too irresistible for this digger…
Oh I love the interview with Emily! Thank you Ms. Dana. I'm not really into fashion but I read your blog from time to time.
Maybe the poster above me doesn't know that Emily's family are moneyed too. She's a coal miner's daughter but they owned the coal mine (as some say in FORT who know her).
Thanks for this interview which provides another peek into the beautiful soul of Emily. That she is not a saint – she's never claimed readiness for beatification – does not deprive her of characteristics worthy of emulation. May she continue to inspire others by her graciousness. She is an exemplary mother, the center of Brad's heart, and soon will be the queen of his home.
Thanks for posting the interview and thanks to Emily for sharing.
I do not understand why so many know how much money Em has, where she gets it or care how she spends it. Some people are more fortunate than others but that's life. I am sure that being a single Mom has not always been easy but she seems to be a great Mom and this is what counts!
Enjoyed pulling for Em and Brad on the "Bachelor" and it is really none of my business but wish they could be comfortable in sharing an occasional update.
I'd like to know more about her skincare regimen. Her skin might be her biggest insecurity, but it looks FLAWLESS to me. Is the retin A she uses prescription or in a product. I love that she has the money to live like most of us wish we could–I agree that she probably doesn't have to save for much and I ENVY that.
I want to hear more about wen hair care. It claims that a lot of stars use it but is the hype true? Does it take a while to get used to.
I won't deny that Emily had a nice fashion sense. I liked quite a few of the outfits and definitely her bracelets. I wasn't a fan of all the make up though, that's too much of a cake face to me. I really don't get why people like her so much. I found her dull on the show. I really like Chantal O, I thought she was gorgeous and natural, and just had so much more personality. Nothing bad against Emily, that's just my opinion, I'm sure she's a very nice person
I would also love to know more about Emily's skin care. Do you know specifically which Elta SPF she uses? I also have very acne prone skin. I wonder if she uses the clear one from Elta?? They make several. Interview her again puh-leasee! She is so pretty, sweet and classy. Thanks for all your info!!

What a bunch of idiots. Emily Maynard is the most fake "baby talking" idiot. She is a simpering fool and is pathetic. The Bachelor/Bachelorette series is the WORST of reality TV with the most false and self-centered narcissists. Follow them and you will become brain dead as well.

Between me and my husband we've owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I've settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

Protein fractionation, in-solution recovery Prefractionation of proteins and peptides prior to LC/MS analysis can dramatically increase the number of proteins ultimately identified. The Agilent 3100 OFFGEL Fractionator uses a novel isoelectric focusing technique to achieve excellent pI-based fractionation. The resulting fractions are in solution, making recovery for LC/MS analysis much easier than with old-fashioned gels. Results are highly reproducible, and the Agilent 3100 OFFGEL Fractionator is now even easier to use with its new web-based user interface.

Easy Comfortable Fit/Travels Well
I have these pants in several colors. They are very comfortable and easy to pair with business tops. I travel a great deal and I can count on these to come out of the suitcase ready to go.

Comfort over function
These pants are nice but they run large and roll down and don't stay up on your hips because they are made like yoga pants
