THERE'S more to Adam Reed's job then just cutting and styling hair.
With Hollywood A-List clients including Dianne Kruger and Sophie Dahl, and jet-setting off for shoots for magazines across the globe, the hairdresser has come a long way since his first job at Something Else in Minehead.
The 41-year-old, who grew up in Watchet, now owns two salons in London with partner Paul Percival.
The pair set up 'Percy and Reed' in 2007 and haven't looked back since, launching their own product range in 2010. But Adam doesn't forget his roots.
On their website, he and Paul state that they are hairdressers "first and foremost", and that they wanted what they'd learned to be available to everyone.
"I used to visit a salon in Washford with my nan and I loved it, I was hooked from there," said Adam. "
I love everything about hairdressing – the skill of it, the people and the fact that I've been able to travel all over the world.
"I love that it continuously changes and I never really know what I will be doing from one day to the next."
With his family still living in Somerset, Adam said he tries to get home as much as possible, but not as much as he would like.
He said: "I have a lot of great memories in Somerset, but I don't get back as much as I would like.
"The hours are hard, though I do choose them, so I'm not complaining, but it's difficult to juggle the many responsibilities.
"If I'm in the salon I will see about 12 clients throughout the day, and in between I will be doing quotes for magazines, preparing for international trips or preparing for shows or shoots.
"But the results make the job so rewarding. I love seeing people smiling at the end of the day."

A three-port optical circulator of -format based on 2D photonic crystal is presented. This circulator is more compact as compared to the known one of the traditional -format. The -circulator does not have rotational symmetry. As a consequence, the frequency responses for different port excitation are slightly different, as it is shown by symmetry analysis and by numerical simulations.

Comparing Environmental Impact of Alternative CAP Scenarios Estimated Through an Artificial Neural Network
The paper aims to assess environmental impact produced by alternative Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) scenarios in the Italian Marche region for the period 2000-2002. Scenarios concern alternative hypotheses about direct payments for arable crops related to Agenda 2000. For this aim, a Multilayer Feedforward Neural Network model (MFNN) was applied. Different from traditional models, MFNN is able to analyze complex patterns quickly and with a high degree of accuracy. Moreover, MFNN makes assumptions about neither the underlying population nor the existence of optimising behaviour and uses the data to develop an internal representation of the complexity characterising the system analysed. The results indicate that direct payments produced positive environmental effects compared to the hypothesis of absence of direct payments. Moreover, they show that it would have been even better, from an environmental point of view, if Agenda 2000 had been more radical in comparison to the 1992 Mac Sharry reform, by introducing decoupled direct payments.

"I really enjoyed the technical training we received as well as working together with the other teachers in this session. I see the importance of working together and not being afraid to ask someone who is more savvy about certain techniques then I am."
- Walthall Middle School Teacher, QTL Foundations Participant
"Over the course of this class, I have gotten more of a confidence boost than anything. As a first year teacher, my confidence in myself is low and the relationships I have made in these courses combined with the information that has been presented have made me feel more confident. I feel like a vital part of my school."
- Teacher from Montgomery County, NC, New and Emerging Teacher Institute Participant
"To be honest, I was apprehensive at first - moving from a business and marketing curriculum to a computer hardware and operating systems curriculum appeared to be a daunting task. But ExplorNet made the transition as easy as possible. Having the entire curriculum digitized and placed on the Moodle course website allowed me to hit the ground running. I felt as if 99% of the preparation had been done for me and all I had to do was teach."

NATO Defendants Motion To Dismiss Case On Grounds Charges Unconstitutional
natalie solidarity @constantnatalie
Good luck to the #NATO5. Three of them are challenging their arrest on constitutional grounds: http://bit.ly/125epO1 via @OccupyChicago
Retweeted by Occupy Chicago
Lawyers for three of the five men facing terrorism charges surrounding the NATO summit protests last May filed a motion challenging the constitutionality of the charges. On Friday, the legal team for Brian Church, Jared Chase and Brent Betterly filed a motion and a memorandum to dismiss several of the counts against them on grounds the charges are based upon the unconstitutionally vague statutory definition of 'terrorism' and 'terrorist act.' According to a statement from the People's Law Office, the statute passed in Illinois in 2001 the defendants are being charged under also infringes on First Amendment activity and allows for the arbitrary and politically motivated use of the statute by the police and prosecutors.
Defense lawyer Michael Deutsch told CBS2:
The statute says terrorism is an intent to intimidate or coerce a significant portion of the civilian population, and what we have alleged is those words coerce or intimidate - without any act of violence - is unconstitutionally vague, which allows for the punishment of First Amendment activity. What does it mean to intimidate a significant portion of the civilian population? What is a significant portion, and what is meant by civilian population? All those vague undefined terms allow for the police and the prosecutors to pick and choose who to charge with the most serious prejudicial charges of terrorism.
The three men, along with two others, have been held since last May after police raided a Bridgeport apartment. Salon reports one of the five, Sebastian Senakiewicz, pleaded guilty to one count of falsely making a terrorist threat, and received a four year prison sentence. Church, Chase and Betterly have pleaded not guilty to all charges. Prosecutors have 21 days to respond to the motion and the next hearing for the case will be in February.

We've all been to a restaurant and gotten a receipt that identified us as "Table 4" or "Station 12" or "Diners 1-4." It's how restaurants keep track of their customers. No prob.
But a waitress in York, England, used not only "Table 11" and "Stools" to keep track of her customers, but this indication "Gay guys."
And it turns out, the guys were not gay.
Maybe she meant they looked happy (possibly, if she was alive in 1923). But she was probably just profiling them.
So my question is: Is this offensive?
Before you answer, keep in mind: I always dine out, see a table, and tell my dining companion, "Did you see that dessert?" "Which one?" "The one those gay guys at the next table ordered." C'mon, you know you do it. Is it worse when a server does it — or worse when you are straight? And it's it more offensive that she charged them two pounds (about three bucks!) for "half" a Diet Coke?

300 BLK SBR Started
Finally scored a Noveske 8.2" 300 BLK barrel and HSB and should have the tax stamp in about 4 months. :D
Will be paired with a Noveske Gen 2 lower as soon as the stamp comes in, provided I can find VLTOR/Noveske upper and LPK by then. I've got a BCM BCG for it. Not sure about the rest of the furniture yet but I've got some time to figure that out. ;)
Thanks to Mike at ROG Tactical for the Noveske barrel and outstanding customer service! He responds to questions and processes/ships orders with lightning speed. I know this common knowledge around here but it deserves saying again. Thanks Mike!
And now for some gun pron (it's not much at this point though)...

I love itI love everything about this. You can do super slim or layer it. It doesn't dry out and flake like a lot of eyeliner. I adore the felt tip. Gone thru many and will continue to by. Loreal liquid eyeliners are hands down the best — 2 years, 9 months agoshootingstar0112 | 25 reviews

Precise linesWhat I love: The tip of this liner really is thin, I have never been able to get such a thin, precise, line so close to my lash line before. The formula is long-wearing (with a primer [UDPP] 8-12 hours); the finish is a rich black that dries with a satiny-matte finish. The packaging is clever, very thin and easy to take with you. I also like the fact that it applies evenly without having to re-wet...read more the tip. What I didn't love: The tip pulls so it does skip, which makes smooth lines and cat eyes a challenge. Without a primer, it smudged and transferred within 1-2 hours. Overall, I like this liner a lot. It takes a steady hand and bit of practice to get around the skipping but once I got the hang of it, it was fine. I'm taking off points because of the pulling/skipping and because I needed a primer for it to last. — 4 years, 1 month agoOccasionallyJane | 12 reviews

My Reasons for Reporting This


text:
I'm so happy to participate in Emily's monthly sharing of things we've learned. I've been looking forward to it, but had to wait until my new blog was complete. Since I missed January, I'm going to share what I learned in both of the first two months of the year.
I learned at least one lesson the hard way. When the temperatures drop to single digits and the weatherman says you ought to insulate your pipes to prevent bursting, he's right. Thank God for plumbers who forego their supper and work overtime in frigid darkness to help a sister out!
Notice the new blog? I've been scattered all over the Internet for a long time and finally said, "Enough already!" I decided to streamline, de-clutter, delete, and make this blog my home base so I can focus on. one. thing. (Well, this other thing too.) I've been learning Genesis, which is new to me, and a bunch of other bloggy techy stuff that stretches me to the limits of my mental capacities.
And I have big news! I finally got a smart phone! Actually, my dad upgraded to a new iPhone and gave me his old one, but it's my first smart phone so I've been learning all about it. Love it!
I've been using the Sleep Study app on my new phone which has confirmed what I already knew- I don't sleep! But at least now I have graphs and charts so I can prove to everybody why I'm a trifle crazy.
I audited Carol Tice's 4 week journalism course and it completely exceeded my expectations. I can't even begin to tell you how many new things I learned, but it sure fired me up to take my writing to the next level.
With all the cold weather, I've been trying a lot of recipes, which is really odd since I hate to cook. Most of them were flops or close to it, but this Cheesy Vegetable Chowder is deee-licious!

Apparently jihadists aren't going out-baby us all into sharia law:
Globally, Muslims now make up 23.4 percent of the population, and if current trends continue, will be 26.4 percent by 2030. Such growth is not enough to create a drastic shift in the world's religious balance, experts said. The world's Christian population has been estimated in other reports to be 30 percent to 33 percent.
Amaney A. Jamal, associate professor of politics at Princeton and a consultant for Pew on global Islam, said that the report could challenge assertions by some scholars and far-right political parties about future demographic domination by Muslims.
"There's this overwhelming assumption that Muslims are populating the earth, and not only are they growing at this exponential rate in the Muslim world, they're going to be dominating Europe and, soon after, the United States," she said. "But the figures don't even come close. I'm looking at all this and wondering, where is all the hysteria coming from?"
In the United States, the Muslim population might someday be as high as 1.7 percent of the population. There's this wild-eyed segment of conservatives who believe that every single American Muslim is a secret radical bent on establishing a caliphate to make all of us grow beards, wear burkhas and stop watching HBO. Even if that was true -- uh, it's not -- the numbers simply don't bode well for that proposition.

Andrew Lincoln teases there will be samurai-wielding characters, adding that the pace of the upcoming season is 'darker, harder, faster, deeper.'
The first look at "The Walking Dead" season 3 has been provided in a form of behind-the-scene video. Compiling montage of the cast and crew on the set of the show, it offers a glimpse inside a prison featured in the season 2 finale which will be the survivors' safe haven in the next chapter.
In an interview, Laurie Holden who plays Andrea says there are new characters, "some that have been announced, some that have not." Lead actor Andrew Lincoln chimes in, "There are samurai wielding characters that are turning up."
Gushing about the pace in the season 3, the Rick Grimes depicter claims it "is darker, harder, faster, deeper... It's incredibly dangerous, and it's thrilling." Additionally, Norman Reedus who portrays Daryl Dixon dishes, "People start losing their minds, love blossoms and a whole lot of gross zombie kills."
The upcoming third season of "Walking Dead" will debut this fall. Sword-wielding heroine Michonne (Danai Gurira), who was introduced in the last episode of the previous season, will be part of the story. Moreover, David Morrissey has been cast as The Governor.

Prince is the largest family-owned pizzeria in America.
By Trish Castraberti
About an hour before the first of her three sold out shows began, Christine Hurley met me at Giggles to answer a few questions. When she entered(dare I say "pranced?") into the room, her energy was palpable. As she walked from the door to the table where I eagerly awaited her arrival, there was a string of apologies for being late, quick "hellos" to familiar faces and infectious laughter as she told tales about the traffic she had just endured. When she finally settled into her seat, I became giddy with anticipation. What was this woman going to say? Buckle your seatbelt…

Ruger 77/22
I'm getting a ruger 77/22 magnum tomorrow and need a reliable all weather stock for hunting cheap any suggestoins
I have a 77/22 "all weather" stainless and it has a laminated stock. Are you saying your new rifle is wooden stocked also and you want to change it to the synthetic stock just to hunt with it? If so, you might want to rethink that, because wooden stocked guns have been around for over 500 years and with the right care will last more than a lifetime. Wooden stocked rifles also don't have the flexing associated with synthetic stocks. You still need to take apart gun anyway to clean/wipe/oil it down to prevent metal rusting if you have been hunting in a wet enviroment to protect your investment, and that will be for any gun. Newer, wooden stocked guns have a protective clear coating on them just for this reason. Only reason there's synthetic stocked guns nowadays is because it's easier and cheaper to mold a plastic part than having the proper wood carving tools to properly make a wooden stock or the CNC machines necessary to cut out a stock from a piece of blank wood. Synthetic stocks also allow more of the recoil to come through due to their lightness, whereas a wooden stocked rifle will absorb some of that recoil to help tame it down, especially in higher caliber rifles. You can get synthetic stock for the 77/22 from Ebay or get some nice laminate stocks in your color choice, that needs to be final finished from Boyd's Gunstocks. I also have a Boyd's gunstock for my 77/22 when I built it up into an ultimate custom 77/17HMR. My 77/22 has replaceable stainless Green Mountain bull barrels for when my mood changes and I want a custom target rifle instead of a hunting rifle. Will your rifle have the screw-in barrel or a V-block barrel?
Thanks for that information I did not know any of this that was helpful.but I also want it for the customazation of a synthetic stock. I am getting already getting a harris bipod do you know a of good scope
Ohhh, too bad I didn't read this sooner. I have a Ruger All-Weather SS 22 LR W/synthetic stock I'm looking to sell. Nice gun, but I have mixed emotions about the stock. It's really well-made, looks nice, act, but there's nothing like a nice looking walnut stock. I have this particular one more for a SHTF type of thing, so SS & Synthetic is the way to go.....
cavalary06 You may want to buy a bi or tripod from PRIMOS, They have there shooting sticks, rather than a bolt on bi-pod that limits use in the field. The shooting sticks offer easier control over hight and adjustablity that you just don't have with bolt on pods.

I grew up watching Evening Magazine - which has been one of the highest rated regional programs on television for a long time - so I flipped-out when reporter Kim Holcomb asked me if I was interested in being featured on the program. I agreed of course, and eventually we decided to film one of my many gifts to local youth. Actually, it was the second pair of customs I had given to Jesse, and my favorite of this piece is when when we toss his old - completely thrashed - customs in the garbage.

HELENA – U.S. Sen. Jon Tester wants his constituents to think he's the man to cut wasteful government spending on federal agency self-promotion, but his record shows he's not that guy.
When given a direct opportunity to cut funding for federal self-promotion, Tester balked. His record, too, suggests the first-term Democrat isn't afraid to support legislation including clear plans for advertising spending.
Yet, voters might not see this side of the senator.
Last week, he pitched legislation to slash federal agency ad budgets by at least 50 percent, a move Tester says could save billions through the next decade.
It's an odd posture for the Montana lawmaker, who sided with Democrats in 2009 to uphold a most glaring example of government throwing money into the public relations wind: stimulus road signs.
The 2009 stimulus bill contained key provisions allowing state and federal agencies to erect signs near project funded through the act. The signs vary from state to state, but usually described the project and noted that federal dollars funded.
Some signs — but not all — showed exactly how much the federal government spent on nearby projects.
In a fruitless chance at scoring cheap political points, U.S. Senate and House Republicans pushed legislation to strip the sign money from the law in fall 2009.
New Hampshire U.S. Sen. Judd Gregg, a Republican, offered an anti-stimulus sign amendment to the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2010, a hefty spending bill setting 2010 budget for several federal agencies, including the Department of Transportation.
Judd pulled no punches when asked his opinion on the signs. He labeled them as "simply for political self-interest," and suggested jobs might be created with money spent on the signage. According to the senator's estimates, the government spent between $6 million and $20 million on the signs.
Democrats, who ushered the stimulus bill through the Capitol in January 2009, defeated the Gregg amendment, though by a narrower 52-45 margin than observers might have expected.
Five Democrats, notably including New York Sens. Kirsten Gillibrand and Chuck Schumer, crossed the aisle, siding with Republicans on the measure.
Tester and Montana's senior senator, Democrat Max Baucus, supported continued funding for the roadside signs.
Perhaps Tester's defense is the inconsequentiality of the sign spending cuts. The stimulus bill, after all, cost taxpayers an enormous $787 billion and the signs represented a tiny fraction of the overall price tag.
Tester did not return emails requesting comment.
Using Gregg's high-water mark for sign-spending, the $20 million he said the feds spent on stimulus propaganda represented just .002 percent of the act's total cost. At the $6 million figure, it's .0007 percent.
Minuscule spending cuts might not be the issue for Tester, though.
In last week's news release, Tester complained about the $1 billion in government ad spending in the fiscal year 2010 federal budget. That year, the government spent $3.45 trillion, meaning that ad spending comprised .02 percent of all federal spending.
Had Tester successfully pitched his legislation in 2010, ad spending would have dropped by $500 million, or to about .014 percent of federal outlays for the year.
Another vote in the Tester's record reveals he's not shy about spending taxpayers' funds on the government "self-promotion" he now disparages.
Section 4004 of the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, otherwise dubbed the national health reform law, contained specific language requiring that the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services engage in "outreach" activities surrounding the act.
Tester was one of the 60 senators who supported the Affordable Care Act in the U.S. Senate.
On April 30, HHS awarded Porter Novelli Public Services, a Washington, D.C.-based public relations firm, a $17.5 million outreach contract. The firm will execute "a national, integrated multi-media education campaign that promotes the preventive health care benefits available to all Americans as a result of the Affordable Care Act," the contract award document explains.
Almost immediately after the health care law's passage, HHS spent more than $700,000 airing television commercials featuring former Mayberry and Matlock man Andy Griffith promoting the measure.
Additionally, U.S. Rep. Charles Boustany, R-La., complained earlier this year that HHS spent more than $1 million sending postcards to certain small businesses explaining their eligibility for federal tax credits under the law.
State governments join the propaganda action, too.
California, using federal funds provided through the ACA, will begin spending on advertising within the next year and is eyeing a reality show promoting participation in the law's exchanges, or online marketplaces for state residents to purchase health coverage.
California awarded Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide, a New York-based firm, a $900,000 promotions, outreach and advertising contract using federal cash. According to NewsBusters, Ogilvy plans to use Hollywood and top American TV shows to spread the pro-health reform message.
Of course, maybe Tester took the good with the bad: He recognized the bill's upside and subsequently ignored the section requiring public relations spending.
Perhaps he also recognized the insignificance of the ad spending: The approximately $20 million HHS has dedicated to public relations spending under the PPACA represents just .0016 percent of the law's total cost.
Tester's ad-cutting bill awaits hearing in the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs.

Impressed with Nick's rendition of her song in the Century City, the Monster ringleader took to Twitter to praise him by calling the cover 'so dreamy.'
Lady GaGa couldn't hide her excitement when learning that her new single "The Edge of Glory" had been covered by Nick Jonas. The Mother Monster shared to her Twitter followers that she was "swooning." She tweeted, "On my way to press conference in Taichung, listening to it. So dreamy! X."
A few hours later, the boyfriend of Delta Goodrem replied GaGa's message with a short posting. "The pleasure is all mine," the youngest member of the Jonas Brothers wrote. He continued by singing praise for the outlandish singer, "That is a beautiful song. Keep inspiring the world."
Nick did the cover song at the grand opening for the Microsoft Store at the Westfield Shopping Center in Century City, California on Friday, July 1. Beside singing GaGa's song, he also played a rendition of Bruno Mars' "Just the Way You Are" and big brother Joe Jonas' "See No More".
While Nick was taking the stage and strumming his guitar on stage, his girlfriend Delta was watching him from across the venue. The Australian singer, wearing a long navy blue dress, reportedly couldn't stop giggling as she stared admiringly at the JoBros member who was rocking a blazer and jeans.

Dr. Selig Brodetsky, Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Leeds and one of the governors of the Hebrew University, who arrived in New York on Wednesday, brought with him a letter from the Earl of Balfour, asking for the support of Americans for the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. Dr. Brodetsky came to the United States to join the Weizmann delegation which includes Dr. Georg Halperin and Dr. Chaim Arlosoroff.
Dr. Brodetsky will visit American universities, and confine his activities to enlisting the support of America for the Hebrew University. Professor Brodetsky is regarded as one of the foremost authorities on mathematics and aerodynamics in the world. He has been listed as one of the ten who understand the Einstein theory.
The attention of Dr. Brodetsky was called to the recent statement made by Dr. Pritchett of the Carnegie Peace Endowment in his report on Palestine to the effect that the Hebrew languatge could not be utilized as a medium for scientific expression. Dr. Brodetsky took direct issue with Dr. Pritchett. He stated that when in Jerusalem in 1925, he delivered two lectures, both in the Hebrew tongue on mathematical subjects. One of them was on the principles of dynamics from Aristotle to Einstein. The other was on a technical problem of pure mathematics. In neither case had he any difficulty in expressing himself "in the language of the prophets."
The letter of the Earl of Balfour to Professor Brodetsky reads:
"I am much interested to hear that you propose visiting some of the great American universities for the purpose of enlisting their interest in the young University of Jerusalem. It is a most deserving institution and fully merits all the support you can obtain for it."
Dr. Brodetsky's publications include, beside many papers on Applied Mathematics a volume, "A First Course in Nomography" and "Mechanical Principles of the Aeroplane." He was lecturer in mathematics at Bristol University before being called to Leeds. He was promoted to a professorship in Mathematics at Leeds in 1924. He is bringing out this year a life of Newton and will shortly publish a mathematical work on gravitation. He has also been one of the translators of Copernicus from Latin into English.
Franklin Ford, radio announcer at Radio Station WHAP, was excused from jury service by Judge Otto Rosalsky of General Sessions because of attacks he had broadcast against Catholics and Jews. Mr. Ford, who is said to have received many complaints because of religious prejudices he has expressed over the radio, was being examined for jury service in the case of Henry J. Williams, a Negro.

11 February, 2013
I remember my high school civics teaching about the importance of the Magna Carta; for the first time, citizens, albeit the aristocracy, sought to limit the power of a monarch.
I have since learned that our concepts of trial by jury and habeas corpus were first mentioned in that charter; indicating that as early as 1215, men knew there were natural laws even kings shouldnŌĆÖt violate.
The British Parliament counts its beginning from that day, but the struggle for power between the governed and their governors lasted centuries. Even during the 150 years that the colonists had been in America, Parliament was dissolved and later reinstated, war occurred between monarchs and the church, and a king was tried and executed.

Because I'm so not yet.
If you recall a few weeks ago, I wrote about gearing up to add working out to my weight loss strategy. In case you foolishly don't read pBd every day of life, here is a reminder: Best Workout Wear for Women.
That post was written 6 weeks ago and, as I type this today, I've still not committed myself to a regimented workout plan.
Sure, sure, I still jog during the Cosby Show a couple of times a week. And, I hit my squats in the shower and my lunges while I brush my teeth (workouts gotta get in where they fit in).
Not, quite the workout regimen I imagined myself adopting when I imagined myself adopting one.
I envisioned a more traditional method that involved me signing up for a gym or at least ordering some DVD featuring a lunatic trainer willing to scream at me to "FEEL THE BURN!" everyday for a half an hour.
But, yeah, not quite.
I did make good on my plan to acquire attractive and functional workout wear though! It came straight from pvBody, and is super chic and functional as expected.
I love it because I feel seriously fast in it…
Like superhero-leap-a-building-dodge-a-bullet fast. And, like Olympic swimmer: sleek, hairless, and fast. Okay, it's winter, no way am I hairless.
But, the way this suit fits, I truly feel like I could cut through water like a torpedo. You know, if I could even really swim (I won't drown, but apparently, doggie paddling is not considered for real swimming. Whatevs.).
It's moisture wicking, and preshrunk, and chafe-resistant and all of that stuff you look for in high quality workout wear. It's also affordable and easily accessible from the comfort of your own home.
That's right, you can snag this workout gear without even getting off of your couch!
Plus, the way pvBody works (they create a personalized outfit for you; see below), novice workout-ers like myself can happily wind up with a great fitting workout outfit without spending a bunch of time puzzling over whether it's gonna hold up the girls (necessity), or repel camel toe (gag), or highlight your muffin top (Please. No.).
I love that about pvBody.
And, I love my pvBody selected workout wear.
And, I wear it all the time.
In my house.
Because, seriously…
Ahhhhh! It is NOT going outside. Not on this body anyway.
I just don't feel confident taking all of this action out to the gym when it seems like I am the only person there who actually NEEDS to be there. I should maybe look into going at a different time of day.
As fast and as sleek and as ready to Pump. It. Up. as I feel when I slide into my workout wear, those feelings are completely negated by the fact that I'm pretty sure the Gilliam Anderson clone leading my class and the Kate Hudson look a like standing next to me in it are judging me as I stumble over myself.
Okay, probably they're not. But what if they are. But I feel like it. Totally.
So, I've come up with a foolproof go-to-the-gym-strategy: I will not go to the gym until I lose more weight! And, should the need to go to the gym arise, I will wear my loose-fitting-yoga-pants-and-ratty-college-tee disguise.
Then, when I start looking all fly, I will just bust up into the gym in this outfit like what!
I will be all badow with it, and chicks will slip offa the treadmill, and dudes will like drop weights on their toes, and the trainers will be climbing over the counter tops to high five and fist bump me. I will slide into a Zumbatomic class and know all the moves. Then dive into the pool to swim laps without even rippling the water (yeah, I'll know how to swim then). Then, when I come up from taking a drink from the water fountain, and shake out my hair, all slow-mo-sexy-like, the entire gym will bust into song, followed closely by dance. And, when those judging chicks from class give me the elevator eyes, I will be all FACE and walk backwards outta them with my posse.
It will be 80s movie epic.
And entirely in my mind.
I'm saving my public pvBody gear debut for that day.
Want to snag some pvBody for your workout? Here's what you need to know:
Easy peasy lemon squeezy: pvBody is easy. Take the quiz, sign up and boom, an awesome package arrives at your door each month with a hand picked outfit for you!
Every outfit is styled just for you by a pvBody expert. Each month you receive an outfit worth $150, but you pay just $49.95. You're getting great, quality pieces for a fraction of the retail cost thanks to the relationships pvBody has built.
pvBody is not just another clothing company, but a lifestyle brand. Their blog is a great place to check out tips and tricks for healthy, delicious meals and at home workouts.

How do we love the Smashbox Full Exposure Palette? Let us count the ways. The shimmery and matte shadows are insanely versatile, complement a wide range of eye shapes, and can be used to create a sultry night-out look. Now Global Pro Lead Makeup Artist Lori Taylor Davis gives us yet another reason to seriously sweat this palette by showing us how to make your eyes pop. And we mean really pop. Click through the slideshow for step-by-step instructions.
Prep your eyes by applying the Smashbox 24 Hour Photo Finish Shadow Primer with your fingers to keep shadow in place and prevent creasing, then gently pat on the Hydrating Under Eye Primer, a silky serum that brightens and smooths the delicate skin in that area.
It's time to open up that palette. Start with a matte base shade, working your way up from the lash line with an eye shading brush and blending up and across to finish just below the brow bone. Next, layer on one of the shimmery mid-tones.
Smudge a dark black shade across your upper lash line with an angled brush, then do the same with the taupe shadow. Repeat along your bottom lash line, blending together.
Use the Always Sharp Waterproof Kohl Liner to line your top lid close to the lashes and the inner rim of your lower lash line. Curl your eyelashes, then apply the Full Exposure mascara (a travel size is included with the palette!) to the upper lashes. Rub the wand with a tissue before using it again to line your lower lashes. Finish by defining your brows with Smashbox's Brow Tech To Go—Birchbox carries the Brunette shade.
To balance out your dramatic eyes, keep your lips neutral. Taylor Davis mixed the brand's Be Legendary lipstick in Honey and Pout for a soft nude hue, to great effect. Then, brush a rosy color like Blush Rush in Chiffon onto your cheeks for a healthy glow.
Cristina is a lover of chocolate labs, experimenting with cocktails, and any products that prevent frizz.

BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) — The ubiquitous "watch for motorcycles" bumper sticker takes on new meaning — at least if you happen to be driving in front of 27-year-old Philip Hegarty of Pompano Beach.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office says he wasn't paying attention on 441 near Sandalfoot Blvd. Thursday evening when he crashed into a car stopped at a traffic light.
According to investigators:
"Hegarty was not paying attention to what was occurring ahead of him; thus, when he finally looked in front of him, he panicked and immediately applied the front brake of his motorcycle. The motorcycle overturned and ejected him. He impacted onto the pavement and began sliding underneath the rear of (the car in front of him). Also, Hegarty's motorcycle came down on top of him and it slid forward until the rear of it impacted into the rear of the other car."
Hegarty is listed in serious condition at Delray Medical Center.

Successful mock trial season culminates with qualifying for and competing in the 1st round of the national championship series: On October 19, 2013, St. Ambrose compiled a 4-0 record at the Quad Cities Invitational, earning us the second place trophy. On October 26th, the team took third place at Quincy University; remaining undefeated. St. Ambrose hosted its first invitational mock trial tournament.
In addition to the SAU team, other college participants included Luther College, Central College, and Northern Illinois University. The St. Ambrose team placed second, with a 4-0 record. SAU award winners included Caleb Copley (best attorney) and Tyler Waugh (best witness). Several of our alumni generously offered their time to serve as judges including Jennifer (Kislia) Kinkaid '03, Sarah Gorham '10, Joshua McIntyre '08, and Meena Brandt '11.
The team tied for 8th place at the University of Iowa with a 4-4 record. Caleb Copley picked up an attorney award (his third of the season), and Tyler Waugh picked up a witness award (his second of the season).
After a slow period, the Mock Trial team finished the regular season with a bang. After a disappointing 3-5 performance at St. Francis University on January 14-15, on the following weekends the team went 4-3-1 at Central College and 2-0-2 at the Loras National Invitational.
At the February 8-9 AMTA Regional Tournament Rapids, the team overcame a 1-3 start with 2-0 victories over University of Notre Dame and University of Iowa to finish 5-3, gaining the 8th place Honorable Mention and tying with Notre Dame for the Spirit of AMTA award (given for integrity and fair play). For the first time since the 2005-2006 season, the team received an open bid to the AMTA Opening Round Championship Series, held this year at Waukegan, Illinois, on March 14 to 16. While not moving on to the National finals, the team fought hard, learned through this intense competition, and brought this successful season to an end.
The 2013-2014 SAU Mock Trial team members included: Team Captain Caleb Copley, Tyler Waugh, Logan Hanley, Whitney Bowton, Joe Dillion, Alexa Thompson, Mario Vega, Alyssa Daniel,and Paige Wheeler, Cole McKinnon.

Get Your Dog Care Questions Answered by Experts
How much does your dog weigh?
How many minutes ago did she ingest it?
Dr. Debbie
You can give her 1 and 1/2 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide by mouth and she will vomit in about 15 minutes. If she doesn't, you can give her an additional tablespoon after 20 minutes. Just catch the vomit and identify the dryer sheet.
Worst case scenario, if it doesn't come up, she should be able to pass it through with her size - but it would be better just to get it up and not have to worry about it.

When one is asked to describe the MAS, they might use the words tenacious, flexible, and stunningly attractive. At least we hope so.
It is with that preface that we announce one more (and hopefully final) change to the Grad School Information Session. Hold on to your Indian Jones style fedoras, kiddies:
The Graduate Studies Information Session will take place on Tuesday, October 24th at 2:30 in CNH 322 with Dr. McGarry and is bound to be a good time.
Once again, we hope to see you there.

A Return To My Childhood After All Of These YearsOoh... I have recently began seeking out the old animated movies that I had watched in my childhood that I had forgotten entirely about. So far, I have found Oliver and Company and the Great Mouse Detective... though so far, I have been too busy watching the Great Mouse Detective over and over again to actually focus on looking for the others.
I had originally forgotten entirely about the existence about the Great Mouse Detective until I had come across the title on TV Tropes.
So I had rewatched it for the first time... and all of those bits and pieces of my memories came back, and due to my near-photographic memory... all of those bits and pieces were right. Especially the climax of that movie. I dare not spoil this wonderful movie; you'll have to see the intense climatic scene and the others preceding it to really get a feel of that movie.
Now... before I spoil the Great Mouse Detective... I shall end this topic. I am back in love with old cartoons. Especially this movie, which was too frightening for me to remember until now.

text: Hi, A few of you may have been aware that my car developed a high pitched squeaking noise from the n/s front of the car. It has since been described as sounding like an 'old fasioned kettle boiling. The symptoms are: It is definitely speed related, as it only starts over around 35/40 miles an hour. But once it's started, it'll squeak even at 5mph.. Get's louder and faster as the car gets faster. Squeaks whether in neutral/in gear/breaking. Had the wheel off, and no signs of the brakes rubbing, had the car up on axle stands in 2wd mode, and couldn't see anything, swapped wheels from front to back.. Please HELP!

So, all during college Cristina and I called this girl (who was in a lot of our classes) "Jess". Three years after college, I find out she prefers to be called "Jessie". Hmmmph. Whoodaknown? She has helped me out with a lot of projects and ideas when we were in school, so I was happy to help her out with one…photos for her new website.
Last year, we photographed her at some green houses near Atlanta. This year we photographed her in a small town near-ish Adel. I love JessIE's style. I wish she would take me shopping and show me what to wear. She knows how to layer. That is something I am NOT good at. What else is she good at? Making art! She has always been a super talented illustrator. I wish I had her skills.
Here is her new website: http://www.jessieparks.com/splash.html
This shot took several tries, but I think C nailed it (and managed to not get the dead cat in the shot).
This is one that I wasn't thrilled with when I shot it, but once I saw it on screen I LOVED it.
The two below are sneak peaks of what you will see later on in the week / early next week on part 2!

Constituting the Academic Performer: The Spectre of Superficiality and Stagnation in Academia
Journal rankings and performance measurement schemes tend to become increasingly influential within many fields of research, thereby consolidating the prevalence of performativity on the life and research endeavours of many academics. The latter are nowadays often pressured to publish in 'top' journals to ensure they have a displayable level of performance. Drawing from literature on identity, this paper introduces and details the construction of the academic performer - a representation of identity which is increasingly typical of what it means today to be an actor in academia, in terms of attitudes and behaviour. Fundamentally speaking, this paper constitutes a critique of a detrimental tendency in academia, that is to say the excessive spread of performance measurement practices and the flow of superficiality and conformity they consolidate.

The Danish National Bank
After an architectural competition an entire block and the former national bank were demolished. With the blind base storey and the overlying office construction in dark tinted glass, this centrally situated building stands out as one of the most distinctive constructions in the city. The lower storey and the office gables are furnished with sides of Greenland marble. The interior of the foyer rising to the full height of the building is considered one of Arne Jacobsen's principal works.

Tom Cruise Boogies Down Xenu Style
See Tom Cruise. See Tom Cruise sing. See Tom Cruise dance. See Tom Cruise embarrass himself.

text: When my sisters have approved a dope music video, I must deliver my take. Mimic cutie Karen O's makeup and learn via Buzz. Stay here for the fashion perspective on the Yeah Yeah Yeah's new video. The SF love continues . . . it's so cool to see Karen O — in her super studded "KO" bedazzled leather jacket and badass spiked leather gloves — trample my city. Dude, she even sings, "Get your leather, leather, leather on." And it's not all typical sunshine and fog, it's rain-drenched streets and confetti! Karen O seems to have matured a bit in both her style and her music, and I'm liking what I see and hear. Her moody style and the band's new wave sound remind me of Siouxsie & the Banshees. I'm a firm believer in the evolution of style, and I think we're witnessing a metamorphosis.

Up until this year, Dr. Dog had been making their albums in their home studio. For their latest album, Shame, Shame, the band wanted to incorporate the experience of their live show into the record– and all the better, because the Philadelphia band approaches their live show with all of the boundless energy, spirit, and talent that put them on the map in 1999. Watch as they deliver their musical goods to the audience at WXPN's XPoNential Music Festival.

A lab for bass principals that uses the cello suites of J.S. Bach to develop arco performance skills. The goals of the course are to build technique using the bow and musicality through the study of masterpieces. Students will be assigned individual movements of a suite and perform in a master-class setting.
This lab prepares the Berklee bass student to record themselves and deliver studio-quality performances to clients anywhere in the world. Increasingly, bassists are expected to work remotely with producers---they find jobs online, are sent project files, record and edit their own parts, and deliver high quality recordings---all from their home studio. To stay competitive in this environment a contemporary bassist must master the interpersonal and technical challenges of remote collaboration. Weekly assignments and in-class activities give the student the experience of working with producers to develop the perfect tone and performance for a project, then performing, recording, editing, processing, and delivering on a tight deadline. Topics include effective communication, remote collaboration, mic placement, recording equipment, performance techniques, DAW configuration, editing, sound processing, and preparing deliverables.
This course will use the study of Afro-Cuban music as a departure point into other styles, demonstrating how to apply folkloric elements to jazz, funk, rock, pop, odd-meters, and hybrid rhythms over a common pulse. Numerous styles will be analyzed, studied, and memorized. This course is designed to allow the student to gain a working knowledge of Afro-Cuban music and its application to other styles, and refine groove and articulation. Please note that students should have a least a 4 in their reading rating to participate in this class.
Students will study the utilization of pick bass technique through performance of exercises, études, and transcriptions of various artists. Weekly lessons will consist of harmonic, rhythmic, and technical aspects of pick bass playing. Topics will include holding the pick, pick choices, picking patterns, tone, angles, sweeping, economy picking, switching from finger style, and stylistic and artistic analysis.
Students will study through performance of transcriptions from various artists in the indie rock style. Weekly lessons will consist of harmonic, rhythmic, and technical aspects of indie rock bass playing, including finger style, pick style, bass effects, and bass line construction. The lab emphasizes modern indie rock repertoire.
Students will study through performance of transcriptions from various bassists in the punk and hardcore styles. Each bassist covered has had a signature approach that has greatly influenced the genre. Weekly lessons will consist of harmonic, rhythmic, and technical aspects of punk and hardcore bass playing. The repertoire will range from the beginnings to the modern forms of the genres.
Students will develop basic skills using the turntable both as a means of live expression and performance and as a production tool. Weekly hands-on exercises will be emphasized. The course traces the historical development of the turntable from its origins in Jamaican music through its importance as a major expression of hip-hop culture, and to the turntable's prominence in contemporary music. Artistic, ethical, and legal issues surrounding the use of the turntable will be examined. For students with little or no prior experience.
A lab for the non-guitar principal focusing on technique for the development of basic lead, comping, and soloing skills for effective performance. Students are required to provide their own acoustic or electric guitar.
Instrumental labs for guitar principals with a minimum of second-semester standing. Offered in stylistically delineated sections (jazz, rock, funk, fusion, blues), these labs develop performance skills in the specified style.
A lab focusing on the development of lead, comping, and soloing skills necessary for effective performance in an ensemble. Aids to skills development include a graphic/electronic repertoire of rhythm tracks that provides effective ensemble environments. Planned outcomes include successful transition into the college ensemble program.
A course developed to aid guitarists in negotiating odd and compound meters. The student will explore meters based on groupings of 5, 7, 9, and 11 through a graduated series of exercises, 'études, class demonstration, and participation. Some knowledge of chord voicings and the ability to solo over chord changes is strongly recommended, but not essential.
A weekly one-hour departmental lab to develop skills and repertoire in the traditional bottleneck blues guitar style.

A senior official at the Reserve Bank has suggested that there could be scope for greater lending safeguards in the residential mortgage market, but acknowledged this would make home loans more expensive.
Speaking in Melbourne on Friday, Reserve Bank head of financial stability Luci Ellis said questions about the rules around how much risk banks could take on in housing finance could be a question for the Murray review into the financial system.
Ms Ellis said local banks already set aside more capital to safeguard mortgages than some of their overseas peers.
Nevertheless "it could perhaps be argued that Australia should go further and be even more conservative in its treatment of housing finance", she said.
''Whether and how far to go in this direction is something the financial system inquiry may want to examine,'' she said.
The statements may represent a slight softening in the position of the central bank, which has for some time argued that Australia did not need the ''macro-prudential'' lending rules that exist in some other countries. These rules limit the amount a borrower can take out on a mortgage relative to the value of the property they are borrowing against.
Ms Ellis' comments came a day after Reserve Bank Governor Glenn Stevens issued an unusually blunt warning to property investors in the Sydney market during a speech in Hobart.
''Investors should take care in the Sydney market, which is the main area where a large increase in borrowing has been occurring,'' Mr Stevens said.
''The total value of credit approvals for investor loans in New South Wales as a whole is about 130 per cent higher than in 2008, and it is in the investor segment where there has been evidence of some increase in lending with loan-to-value ratios above 80 per cent in the past couple of quarters.''
Ms Ellis acknowledged that a tightening of mortgage availability would make it difficult for some to purchase.
"That would, of course, make mortgages more expensive and less available than they otherwise would be," she said.
Ms Ellis was also critical of super fund management services. "Every dollar that is paid in fees to trustees, fund managers and all the other layers of the industry is a dollar that is not going into Australians' retirement savings," she said.

Washington returning to work after August and the Labor Day holiday, and some chatter about the prospect that currency intervention by Tokyo will complicate the diplomatic drive to get Beijing to ease off selling renminbi. The White House just despatched (who else?) Larry Summers on a charm offensive to China to ask for faster appreciation, and would dearly like the rest of the G20 to line up behind its campaign. The bad cop role is being played by Congress, which is holding a high-profile hearing on the issue next week.
But as sage Washington observers note, that becomes a harder sell if a prominent G20 member – indeed, a G7 member – is intervening as well. Of course, Washington could argue that Japan was forced into extraordinary action because of China's persistent intervention. But at the very least it complicates the choreography.

Primrose Hill Living & Giving Shop
Opening hours: Mon–Sat 10am–6pm, Sun 12–4pm
Our second store, Primrose Hill opened its doors in December, 2011, to a toasty welcome from the local community.
The store was originally designed by Mary's own creative team and includes a magical wardrobe that you can step into. It also features a till point built by the prestigious 'King of Upcycling', Rupert Blanchard, made from panels of wood which once belonged to British art legends, Gilbert and George.
The shop has seen it all. From book readings by Vogue editor, Alexandra Shulman, and a selection of outfits from Harper Beckham's wardrobe (kindly curated and donated by Victoria Beckham herself) to Vintage Party extravaganzas and Thanksgiving dinners. Kate Moss and Jude Law have both donated and shopped here!
What it does best, though, is serve the local community on a daily basis. It's not just a great place to donate or buy, it's a good place to simply hang out - and with so many celebrities living nearby, you never know who you might bump into.
Mary's Living & Giving Shop for Save the Children is appealing for donations and local volunteers to work in the shop.
To donate stock or enquire about volunteering, please call 020 7012 6400 or visit our Volunteer in a Shop page. Alternatively, email shop manager Georgina Evans at email@example.com

CableLabs and the Society of Cable Telecommunications Engineers (SCTE) announced this morning that they would work in tandem to accelerate the worldwide development and deployment of new cable network technologies.
The cable industry's support organizations, which also include the NCTA, have become more aligned over the past few years at the behest of the cable operators that they serve.
The deeper relationship between CableLabs and the SCTE was designed to enable the innovation of CableLabs and the applied science, engineering and training capabilities of SCTE to be brought together in a clearly defined, collaborative way.
"As greater demands are placed on cable networks, it's important that the industry's two leading technical organizations work together in the most efficient manner possible," said Phil McKinney, president and CEO of CableLabs. "By working more closely with SCTE, we believe we can help the industry to accelerate deployment of solutions that universally will benefit operators, programmers, advertisers and most importantly, consumers."
It also created a framework that will enable parallel development of new technologies and supporting training resources by SCTE and CableLabs, including DOCSIS training and certification that begins this month, as well as educational activities at SCTE Cable-Tec Expo this week.
"The good working relationship between SCTE and CableLabs has helped to foster the development of a wide variety of technologies," said Mark Dzuban, president and CEO of SCTE. "With the natural synergies between our areas of focus, the leadership of both organizations felt that an approach that maximizes communication and sharing of information would expedite the ubiquitous availability of new technologies, products and solutions for the industry."
Among the key components of the enhanced relationship will be alignment on standards and training programs that were designed to drive workforce readiness as new innovations come to market. Examples of the collaboration between the two organizations include partnerships on such projects as:
• A DOCSIS Engineering Professional Certification (DEP) that certifies the knowledge of the interface requirements and operation for the deployment of DOCSIS devices over cable networks;
• A training course that is designed to address such areas as Architecture, DOCSIS Layering, DOCSIS Network Operations and DOCSIS Technology Enablement in preparation for the DEP certification examination; and
• Today's joint symposium on DOCSIS 3.1 Engineering at SCTE Cable-Tec Expo in Atlanta.
The SCTE and CableLabs have worked together with the National Cable and Telecommunications Association (NCTA) to develop the educational program for the Spring Technical Forum at The Cable Show in May. They also are scheduling quarterly strategic meetings and other activities that are supposed to improve communications.
"CableLabs and SCTE each play important and complementary roles" said Tony Werner, executive vice president and CTO of Comcast. "By increasing integration of their core competencies, both organizations can enable the industry to capitalize on innovation faster and more efficiently."

Katrina Kaif, real name Katrina Turquotte (born 16 July 1984), is a British-Indian actress and a former model who appears in Bollywood films. She has also appeared in regional Indian films.
Kaif made her acting debut in 2003 with Kaizad Gustad's Boom, which bombed at the box office. Later, Kaif made appearances in moderately successful films such as Sarkar (2005) and Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya (2005), which helped boost her image in the industry. In 2006, Kaif was largely appreciated for her role as Jia A. Yashvardhan from the film Humko Deewana Kar Gaye, but the film didn't do very well.
It was only in 2007, when Kaif appeared in Vipul Shah's Namastey London, that she started gaining critical acclaim. This was followed with such films as Partner (2007), Welcome (2007), Race (2008), Singh Is Kinng (2008) and New York (2009). Because of her British heritage, she has been seen playing the role of a Non-Resident Indian rather well in several films.
She has since appeared in critically and commercially successful films like Prakash Jha's political thriller Rajneeti (2010) and Zoya Akhtar's dramedy Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (2011). She took Hindi classes to hone her character in Rajneeti to perfection, which promoted her image as a professional and hard-working actor. In 2010, she was nominated for her first Filmfare Best Actress Award for her portrayal of Maya, a loving wife and friend in New York.
In addition to lead roles, Kaif has also garnered recognition for her item numbers such as "Zara Zara Touch Me" from Race (2008), "Sheila Ki Jawaani" from Tees Maar Khan (2010) and "Chikni Chameli" from Agneepath (2012). Having done so, Kaif has thus established herself as a leading contemporary actress of Bollywood.
