Beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover returns with an unforgettable love story between a writer and his unexpected muse.
Fallon meets Ben, an aspiring novelist, the day before her scheduled cross-country move. Their untimely attraction leads them to spend Fallon's last day in L.A. together, and her eventful life becomes the creative inspiration Ben has always sought for his novel. Over time and amidst the various relationships and tribulations of their own separate lives, they continue to meet on the same date every year. Until one day Fallon becomes unsure if Ben has been telling her the truth or fabricating a perfect reality for the sake of the ultimate plot twist.
Colleen Hoover is one of my favorite authors. She is probably one of the only authors I preorder. So on November 10th I was super excited to open my Kindle and have November 9 staring back at me. I flew through the book I was reading so I could start it. And man I was hooked!!!
The premise that these two people, Ben and Fallon, meet On November 9th and decide to spend that day together and the next five November 9ths is fun. We get to follow their meeting on these days and see their relationship evolve and grow and hit some bumps and such. Then we see kind of everything we have seen and learned blow up and come back together and all make sense in only a way Ms. Hoover can do.
Now this is one of the books I don't want to say too much because the fun is in reading and learning it all for yourself but here are some thoughts:
Very meta. I mean Ben is a writer and Fallon loves to read. They are constantly talking about book boyfriends, book worthy kisses, insta-love – you get the picture. It is all done in a very cute way and made me chuckle quite a bit throughout.
Cheese factor. The book, partly because of the book references, was a little cheesy. I mean that in a good way I swear! It made it fun but definitely a little goofy at parts. Which was good because there was enough heaviness that it balanced it out nicely.
Tragic. Man these characters can't catch a break. They have shit luck in life and are dealing with all the effects of that. It bordered on too much for me but never went over the line. It served to make it emotional and entertaining.
Boobs. Ben talks about Fallon's boobs way too much. My only Ben complaint.
Growth. Fallon had lots of character growth throughout each November 9th meeting. I liked watching her gain more confidence and put herself out there.
Weave that web. Damn you Colleen. I didn't see that, that or that coming!! How do you always manage to get me???
Can't stop. Won't stop. I didn't want to put this down. I needed to know what was going to happen. Would they make all the November 9th meetings? Would they be together? Would Ben write his book? Then it was over and I was sad there wasn't more!!
I really enjoyed this one a lot. I rolled with it when it cheesed, when it twisted, when it made me (almost) cry. Another gem from Ms. Hoover in my opinion. If you are already a fan of her books you will most likely love this one too.

Source Water Protection
Vision for Source Water Protection
Providing high quality drinking water starts with protecting the source of that water, which is the first step in the multiple-barrier approach.
Beaver Water District will lead the citizens, businesses and communities of Northwest Arkansas to cooperatively maintain the quality of Beaver Lake for all generations.
Executive Summary
Since 2006, Beaver Water District's source water protection has been conducted under the guidance of our Board approved "Philosophy of Source Water Protection" and "Position Paper on Source Water Protection." These documents were developed at the direction of our visionary Board President, John Lewis. Mr. Lewis saw protecting Beaver Lake as integral to providing safe water for Northwest Arkansas.
In 2010, the American Water Works Association published standard G300, "Source Water Protection," and an associated operational guide document. AWWA's peer-reviewed standards are recognized worldwide as the authoritative benchmark for water works materials and processes. In 2012, Beaver Water District completed a year-long review of its Source Water Protection program to bring it in line with G300 and the Board of Directors of the District approved a 5-year program that will improve protection of Beaver Lake, our source of water.

This plan includes a complete copy (beginning on page 140) of the Beaver Lake Watershed Protection Strategy adopted by the Beaver Lake Watershed Alliance.

MADRID, Spain – Seve Ballesteros underwent a third operation for a cancerous brain tumor Friday that was completed without complications.
The 51-year-old Spanish golf great was in surgery for 6½ hours, with doctors removing the rest of the tumor and reducing brain swelling. Madrid's La Paz Hospital said he was in stable condition in the intensive care unit.
Ballesteros was admitted to the hospital Oct. 6 after briefly losing consciousness at Madrid's international airport. Eight days later, a sizable part of the tumor was taken out.
This operation was described as one "of great complexity." Doctors wanted to relieve pressure on the brain caused by swelling and bleeding and remove remaining parts of the malignant tumor located in a very deep part of the brain. In an earlier operation, part of his skull was removed to allow room for the swelling brain to expand.
Ballesteros' tumor is an oligoastrocytoma, which affects cells that cover and protect the nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord.
Ballesteros won the British Open three times and the Masters twice. He captured a record 50 tournaments on the European tour before retiring last year because of a long history of back pain. He has since concentrated on golf course design.
Ballesteros revolutionized European golf. After the Ryder Cup was expanded to include continental Europe in 1979, he helped beat the United States in 1985 to begin two decades of dominance. He also captained Europe to victory in 1997 and teamed with Jose Maria Olazabal in one of the most formidable partnerships in Ryder Cup history.

Marine biologist Mark Benfield and his collegaues were using the undersea robots to search for signs of environmental damage in the Gulf of Mexico in 2011, when the mysterious deep-sea creature swam into view.
Dr Benfield released video of the 'sea serpent' and published a description of its behaviour in a scientific journal this week.
It's only the second time that a living oarfish has been seen in at depth – most reports are based on the remains of dead or dying animals that float to the surface.
Dr Benfield estimated the specimen was up to seven metres long. The largest species, also known as the "king of herrings", has been reported to grow up to 17 metres long.
They've also been reported to deliver an electric shock when touched, like an electric eel.
Oarfish usually swim vertically in the water, with their head facing the surface and their tail pointing towards the sea floor. They feed on krill and other small sea creatures.
The oarfish head is crowned by long red spines, and it swims by undulating the long dorsal fin along its back.
Dr Benfield's project is a collaboration between several oil and gas companies in the Gulf of Mexico, who lend their underwater robots, or ROVs, for scientific exploration when they're not needed for work on undersea rigs.

Employee Free Choice Act Introduced in House and Senate
ICCFA Members Urged to Contact 'Swing Vote' Senators
Today, the long-expected "Employmee Free Choice Act" (EFCA) was introduced into both the House (H.R. 1409) and the Senate (S.560). A heavily partisan bill that restricts employee voting rights among other things, virtually all Democrats are expected to vote for it and virtually all Republicans are expected to vote against it. The legislation is expected to pass the House very easily. However, there are a number of "swing vote" Democratic senators who may vote against EFCA and we are asking all ICCFA members who are constituents of these particular senators to contact them immediately with a basic message:
Please vote NO to the Employee Free Choice Act.
Rather than provide members with a "form letter," which are notoriously ineffective, member contacts will be more effective if they mention a few points in their own words either verbally by phone or through e-mail:
- The mislabeled Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA) would deprive workers of the right to vote by secret ballot to decide whether or not they want a union.
- EFCA would impose mandatory arbitration where an arbitrator could decide on the terms of a first contract, even over the objections of both management and labor.
- EFCA would substantially increase fines on employers and have a disproportionate impact on small businesses.
Also, try to give a personal example of how you would be affected by EFCA.

A former teacher is suing the Education Department after a problem student allegedly pointed a toy gun at her and pulled the trigger.
Helen Alkan had been teaching a maths class at Ashfield Boys' High School in Sydney's inner west on July 27, 2001, when she says the student pointed the gun at her, yelling "Die bitch, die" as he pulled the trigger up to eight times, according to documents tendered to the NSW District Court.
It was only after Ms Alkan discovered she had not suffered injury that it became clear to her that the gun was a toy.
The toy gun was produced "without warning" after Ms Alkan had confronted two boys who were passing an item between them.
Ms Alkan was medically retired five years after the incident, in August 2006, and suffers from depression, anxiety and post traumatic stress disorder. She has been admitted to hospital on several occasions due to her symptoms.
She is suing the department for damages over the incident, claiming the school was negligent in failing to warn her of Ali Farhat's violent history and for allowing him to remain at the school, knowing he had a propensity for violence.
Farhat was suspended from school for 10 days and was not charged over the incident.
Ms Alkan had nine weeks off school before returning on light duties. She told the court today of her difficulty in coping upon her return to work.
"I was consistently scared if he was going to come into the room ... I was scared of other kids," she said.
The noise of a student slamming their book on a table or a car backfiring would make her jump and she had difficulty thinking of anything but having what she believed to be a gun pointed at her head.
"I kept seeing his face," she said. "I would look at my dad or my brother and I kept seeing his face and the gun."
The hearing continues.

Thank You!!!
Following realising that the strong winds we have had over the past couple of weeks have caused build ups of debris (sadly mainly garbage and plastic) to accumulate on the beach last week we organised a huge clean up. It was great to see that so many people joined!! Not just dive centers and divers but also hotel owners and staff, restaurant workers and lots of people both local and foreign who wanted to help. A big, big thank you to everyone!! It made a huge difference - hopefully this is something we can continue to do to help keep trash out of the ocean and also to inspire people living and working on other islands to do the same. Remember that anything you pick up off the beach means less debris on your dive sites!

Browsershots is a system for automatically capturing screenshots of Web pages in a variety of browsers and making these images available to the public. Its goal is to make it easier to test the compatibility of Web pages with a variety of browsers. The system distributes the work of making screenshots among community members. Anyone can add URLs to the job queue on a central server.
|multimedia Graphics Capture Screen Capture Internet Web Browsers Site Management Software Development Testing
Release Notes: The source code has been updated to work with the latest Django. Several language translations have been added. The most important new features are self-registration for new users and standalone mode for the screenshot factory.
Release Notes: The server software has been rewritten using the Django framework. It now has a translation system, a Web-based admin interface, and screenshot factory configuration through the Web frontend. The factory software supports more browsers, including Opera on Windows. The license has been upgraded from GPLv2 to GPLv3.
Release Notes: This release concludes the development on the old version 0.3 of Browsershots. The development focus has shifted to version 0.4, and little has changed in the 0.3 branch since the last release. Some minor bugs were fixed, and support for Mac OS X Jaguar was added (converting PDF screenshots).
Release Notes: This release adds support for Firefox on Windows and Mac. For Windows users, there is now a binary package of the ShotFactory that includes the Python interpreter and all required libraries. The source code was cleaned up and the database models were improved.
Release Notes: The new screenshot factory was ported to Windows and Mac OS, and HTTP proxy support and a load limit were added. On the server, a page with browser info for each screenshot was created, and a page for each factory with a list of browsers. Duplicate screenshot requests are ignored, and the submit page now shows only browsers that are currently available on active factories. The blog was moved from Snurf to Trac.
Hi Johann,
It is really a nice creation.
I am trying to set up the local environment of browsershts central server and distributed shot factories.
I didnt find any installation page to get the details how can i install the server and factories my OS is ubuntu.

Sox lose Josh Beckett in rain-shortened victory
Credit: Matthew West
Credit: Matthew West
Much like his season, last night's game against the Detroit Tigers was a roller coaster for Josh Beckett.
The Red Sox starter was dominant in the early going, but his night came to a premature end due to a back spasm in the third inning. The beleaguered right-hander was booed by the Fenway Park crowd as he left the mound.
Despite the sour end to Beckett's outing, the Sox extended their winning streak to four games with a rain-shortened 4-1 victory over the Tigers.

Why do you think that? I think that if Google or any of the makers of a Chrome OS machine would market their products more efficiently that they would see some progress. Especially with Pixel being released.

My Reasons for Reporting This

Croydon's most colourful cabbie is to wage war with the council over hundreds of penalty charges for performing an "impossible" right turn.
Drivers have been blitzed with fines after a member of the public complained about the shortcut they take to the taxi rank at East Croydon station.
The council says the 230 charges dished out since late October are for illegal right turns from Addiscombe Road onto Cherry Orchard Road.
But it faces sifting through hundreds if appeals from drivers, who insist the route the council claims they take is not even possible.
Denise Borg, whose dazzling pink cab is famous on Croydon's roads, has been stung with five penalty charge notices in a month - having previously used the junction without trouble for 14 years.
Ms Borg, of Gravel Hill, Addington, said: "There is a traffic island straight ahead of you so there is no way you can turn right. You have to turn left, which we do. Then we do a u-turn because our turning circle allows it.
"Some guy who works in one of the offices saw a taxi doing it and nearly went into the back of him.
"But the point is in 14 years there has never been an accident, but because one member of the public complained they have issued 230 tickets to taxi drivers. On what grounds?"
Ms Borg, who estimates around 300 taxi drivers use the rank on Billinton Hill, plans to appeal her charges.
Denise at the problem junction
She said: "We know the area like the back of our hand and we are not doing anything wrong. It seems to be a nice little earner for the council."
Ms Borg believes he eye-catching carriage, which she believes is the only of its shade in London, makes her a particular target for the council.
Her taxi has starred on the BBC's Don't Tell the Bride, in which she carried a bride to her underwater wedding.
A council spokesman said: "Following a request from a member of the public who was alarmed by what he considered the dangerous behaviour of taxi drivers ignoring a 'turn left only' sign, monitoring of the junction of Addiscombe Road and Addiscombe Grove was begun.
The junction is left-turn only
"It became evident that vehicles were turning right to get to Cherry Orchard Road, in direct contravention of roadside and road-surface direction signs.
"This is a clear breach of traffic regulations and potentially hazardous to other road users.
"The issuing of penalty-charge notices in relation to this offence started on 28 October, and, while it may have been a manoeuvre the taxis had previously undertaken without penalty, the layout of the junction makes it very dangerous."

I remember speaking to my sister just over a year ago. Her three-year-old was throwing a nuclear-sized tantrum, after being made to get out of the car, and come inside.
'You can't stay in there all day,' my sister tried to explain. She ran though a list of logical reasons, before blurting in desperation: 'You might be kidnapped.'
'I want to be kidnapped,' her daughter screeched at the top of her lungs. 'I WANT TO BE KIDNAPPED!'
I watched on, both fascinated and horrified by the sheer power of the melt-down.
'Wait till your one starts throwing tantrums,' my sister warned me.
'She won't,' I replied confidently. 'She's my little angel!'
And she was – a teeny little thing, with huge brown eyes, and a cheeky smile that warmed you from the inside out. She was sweet, and friendly, and funny.
'She'll turn,' my sister muttered ominously. 'They always do…'
Now, with deepest regret, I must concede that she was right. For my angel's wings have well and truly fallen off.
That's not to say Lucia's a bad kid – she's still kind, and quirky, and utterly adorable. But there are also times when my little girl turns into a total 'Todzilla'.
The other day I took her to the local soft play venue and let her loose, while a friend and I caught up over a coffee. She had a blast, running around, mucking about with the other kids.
After two and half hours (and no afternoon nap) I figured she'd be suitably worn out. Turns out I'd underestimated the eternal energy stores of the toddler.
My friend had left, and I was holding the baby, so my powers of restraint were limited – and Lucia knew it. When asked to get into the pushchair, she ran in the other direction instead.
None of the usual tricks worked. I tried bribing with Agent Oso cartoons. No reaction. I reminded her that Daddy was at home waiting to see us. Not interested. I threatened her with the naughty spot. She couldn't have cared less.
After chasing her around for 20 minutes I realised she was not going to respond to diplomacy. The time to talk was over. It was time for Plan B – brute force.
After asking the woman at the front desk to watch over bubs, I grabbed Lucia by the hand and tried to lead her away. She responded by turning her body into jelly and collapsing on to the floor. I tried to pull her up, but she hung at the end of my hand like dead weight. I could see by the look in her eye she'd sooner have dislocated her own shoulder, than give in.
So I grabbed her round the middle and lifted her up, careful to avoid the Kung-Fu kicks and flailing arms. 'No no no no no no no no!!!' she screeched.
Of course, by now EVERYONE was watching me, like I was the blinkin' 'Movie of the Week'.
I carried her to the pushchair, and sat her on the seat. She slid off it like a knob of butter on a hot pan. I hoisted her back up, and she turned her body into a rigid iron bar that refused to bend in the middle. Sweating with sheer exertion, I managed to pin her down long enough to get the arms straps on her.
Finally, she was secured. I was completely frazzled.
The moment she realised the game was up, Lucia stopped fighting and settled back, as calm as you like.
'Juice?' she asked, with a dazzling grin, as if nothing had even happened.
And, just like that, my angel was back… for the moment, at least…

During the last #BizHeroes chat of 2014, we asked participants to share their predictions for 2015. We ended up with over 300 great ones. So many that we could write a book!
Instead of actually writing that book, I thought I'd write a roundup highlighting the ones that are likely to happen this year.
As a result, this week's Social Media post is different from the ones you usually read on this blog.
1. The Mobile Takeover
@ThinkSEM: "Social marketing will be done with mobile in mind. It will be even more based on authentic engagements."
@rippleboost: "Marketers should stop focusing on a separate mobile strategy and instead integrate mobile into all strategies."
eMarketer predicts that mobile will dominate nearly all key search metrics this year. In its Q3 2014 US Consumer Device Preference Report, Moveable Ink reports that smartphones account for 48% of all email opens. Finally, 50.3% of e-commerce traffic now comes from mobile.
As the aforementioned stats prove, mobile is not an option anymore. Whether it's a website, campaigns, or search, marketers and brands will have to start optimizing for the mobile experience if they want to reach a worthy chunk of their audiences.
Actually, here is another number to put everything in perspective. According to Netbiscuits, 9 in 10 people will visit a competitor's website if it offers a better mobile experience.
2. Visual Storytelling Still Rules
@aroru26: "Visual content and responsive design climbing to the top of a hill called Social Media Marketing"
Google+, Facebook, Pinterest, Instagram, Tumblr, Canva, HaikuDeck, Snapchat… Visual storytelling has never been more important.
That statement may not surprise you. However, it is worth mentioning again that those who want to make a social splash with their articles and campaigns will have to create and/or include a lot of visual aids like infographics, photos, videos and slides.
With average attention spans getting shorter, (presently at 8 seconds on average in the U.S.) tidbits of targeted, useful, and entertaining information will have a greater and more positive impact than long chunks of text.
3. Curation and Creation: A Match Made in Heaven
@ThinkSEM: "Content marketing will fuse together curation and creation. Also, we will see an increase in diversified content."
If there is one thing we saw in 2014, it's the rise to stardom of content curation. According to the Third Annual IMN Content Marketing Survey, 82% marketers now curate content. And with the huge amount of content available out there, the state of things is not about to change.
"How huge," you ask? As many as 25 billion new pieces of content on any given month! Every minute, 67,000 photos are uploaded on Instagram, 3,400 items pinned on Pinterest, and more than 127,000 emails sent. Further, between 60 and 70% of the content created by B2B marketing departments isn't used.
Content creation will always matter, of course. However, in 2015, winning the hearts and minds of consumers will imply a mixture between original and sourced content. The marketers and brands willing to find the gems for their audiences instead of tooting their own horns will stand out from the crowd of publishers in their field. This, in turn, will allow them to drive qualified leads, attract new customers, and build stronger loyalty.
4. A More Human Form of Marketing
@IvaIgnjatovic: "Content marketing has to be more, specific, valuable, targeted content combining everyday life elements. Pop content w/ info."
There was a time, not long ago, when marketers just had to send the same dull and boring messages to everyone for sales to happen. Unfortunately for them, things have changed — and quickly. Technology has given consumers a voice that they are not afraid to use.
For example, do you know that more than 8 in 10 consumers will shop from brands that offer highly personalized discounts? 80% of people will recommend a brand based on their mobile web experience, with millennials leading the charge. And yet, only about one third of marketers ask them what they want.
This year, the phrases "buyer's journey" and "audience personas" will be everywhere. Strategies will have to speak to people and on their social platforms of choice. They will be customized and human, with a focus on better and faster customer care.
Not sure how you can do that? Check out how Taylor Swift has humanized her own brand. She is not just a talented artist, but she also knows how to reach her fans in a meaningful way.
5. The Relationship Between Brands and Consumers Redefined
@CarlynServices: "brands + real people/stories = success. More interaction between brands and customers"
@_LisaRich: "Brand relationships with customers are going to be even more important!"
@MadisonJonesHR: "For content to gain an audience, it needs to be sourced from the audience. That human element is crucial. Listen to them!"
Brands and marketers do not just need to act in a more human way. They also have to understand the relationship that ties them to consumers. How people find you and what they expect from you has never mattered more!
In one of its latest studies, GlobalWebIndex reveals how increasingly important this relationship will be this year:
- Consumers mainly use search engines (50 percent) and consumer review sites (44 percent) to research brands online.
- Recommendations are still one of the top discovery sources (41% of online users)
- Social networks may be where people hang out, but they still want to interact on brand websites (47 percent of Internet users)
- When following you on social media, consumers expect knowledge sharing (30 percent), information on your latest products and services (27 percent), and entertainment (24 percent)
- The best way to find advocates? Reward them! That's what at least half of Internet users want.
6. Data Analysis Takes Center Stage
@rachelloumiller: "I see humans leveraging big data to further personalize customer experiences online and off"
@KDHungerford: "Companies are going to invest in Small Data & humans to identify the clues or moments that make the difference for customers."
Have you visited your Facebook page, Twitter account, or Pinterest account lately? You now have access to more detailed metrics than ever before!
While this data doesn't tell you everything about your ideal audience, (Dark Social Media everyone?) it's a great start. Taking the time to familiarize yourself with and understand it will allow you to tailor your message and better reach specific segments of your audience.
7. Conclusion: Less Is More
@KDHungerford: "2015 is the year people (marketers, brands) realize only quality content earns eyes & shares. Less = higher ROI than more."
This year, people will "run away" from the noise and engage with content and campaigns that are quality-centric and offer a customized experience. Clear goals and objectives will yield the best ROI!
What are your social media predictions for this year?

Øivind Slatto unveils the Patera lamp
You may remember him as the man behind the satellite dish-looking Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay A9 speaker, but Danish industrial designer Øivind Slaatto's real passion lies in the design of light fixtures. Known for infusing his pieces with elements of nature, the Copenhagen-based creator once again draws inspiration from the great outdoors for his latest offering, the Patera lamp for Louis Poulsen.
"Patera was born of my fascination with the Fibonacci sequence. You can find the spiral pattern wherever you look in nature, like in the seed formation in sunflowers and pine cones, for example," he explains. Two years of hard work and numerous prototypes later, the Patera — a large, spherical pendant lamp constructed completely from strips of white matt PVC shaped like Fibonacci spirals — was finally realised. To create a more dynamic visual effect, its spirals are arranged in an asymmetrical fashion. While 10 long strips are twisted in one direction, the remaining 20 shorter ones are arranged in the other.
Nature's Fibonacci sequence is one of the recurrent themes in your work. Why is nature so fruitful as inspiration?
What you find in nature is the result of billions of years of evolution — and only the best design has survived. It would be stupid not to study what you find out there. Nature is simply a never ending source of inspiration. That said, as designers, we should not ever copy nature. Instead, we should learn from nature; discover the principles behind it.
You went spherical with the Patera Lamp, what inspired this?
Whenever I design something, I try to focus on the essence of what the design should do. In this case, it's about providing light. And the most essential of all lights — and driving force behind any life form in our solar system — is the sun, which is spherical.
What was the design process like?
Normally, my preferred method of designing is through sketching by hand. However, this project was very much dependent on computers and 3D software due to the complexity of its geometry. A great deal of trial and error was also involved in realising this lamp. I created about four to five prototypes on my own — the first of which I made using big balloon — before Louis Poulsen took over. They helped in refining the light efficiency of the lamp, finding the right materials to incorporate and ensuring that the production assembly time of the lamp was realistic.
Any particular reason why you chose white matte PVC?
Originally, I had other materials in mind but matte PVC showcases light in a beautiful way and has some outstanding specifications with regards to translucence and durability that is hard to beat. As for the colour, I decided to work with white because the geometry of the lamp becomes even more pronounced without the distraction of colour and the light gets all the attention it deserves. Those who really want a colour can easily install a coloured lightbulb in the lamp. But I personally like it in white.
What other projects will you be involved in this year?
Earlier in January I launched a new tech device I designed for Sputniik at the CES tradeshow in Las Vegas. Next week I will be debuting a light which is kind of a cross between a lamp and a meeting room at the Danish Design MAKERS exhibition at IMM Cologne, Germany (January 18-24). Following that, I will showcase some traditional lamps at Stockholm Design Week. I am also currently working on some objects with Time as the theme for Milan Design Week.

- Matt Moore is likely to be RP eligible even though he is expected to be a member of the Rays rotation in 2012.
- Based on his original ranking, Joakim Soria has sleeper at closer written all over him this season.
More rankings to come… but we had to keep things moving. The only place left for us to move is to the infield. This week, get ready as we go around the horn.
Have you reviewed our closer and relief pitcher rankings? What's your take? Let us know in the comments below.

Those are darling!ReplyDelete
Oh, cute. My two were the size of small elephants so I'm not sure their feet ever were that small ;-)ReplyDelete
this looks like it could be done crocheted too. reminds me of these mittens I did for myself (crocheted):ReplyDelete
I want to try it!
Love the little bag too. I have some of that fabric and haven't decided what to do with it yet. Booties are too cute!ReplyDelete
Awww so sweet - what a lovely baby gift! I like your son's message too!ReplyDelete
So sweet! Never mind putting them on the (hopefully nice!) baby, I'd just keep them out to look at all day- so, so sweet!ReplyDelete
Teeny weeny cuteness. Your son's note is priceless.ReplyDelete
I love the booties!! I wish I was better at knitting! I crochet so well that I never got good at knitting. :P Maybe this will be good incentive for me.ReplyDelete
I love you son's note - I hope my students write me such sweet things when I leave for my maternity! :)
oh, i am going to try these booties right off! new nephew coming in a few weeks... i may have to email you if i get confused. i saw a lot of french.ReplyDelete
love your boy's sentiments for his teacher. little does he know how true that can be ;-) i mean, of course they are all nice. sort of.
Yes, I sure did forget how dang small newborns are. We were just getting rid of one of our cribs this week and I hesitated. Husband was running the other way already...ReplyDelete
Very cute booties!ReplyDelete
I think I'll try to convert this to crochet this weekend. Thanks for posting!
So cute, your sons note made me laugh out loud :)ReplyDelete
Twiggy x
when you get a chance... what size needles did you use? i THINK i get what you do with the pattern now. ends up kind of like a big "T" shape and then you sew the sides down and overlap, no? i just am wondering about scale, but maybe i should wing it. new nephew may have some big tootsies... think he may be a pretty good sized boy.. i know my oldest never fit in anything newborn when it came to socks or booties.ReplyDelete
Hello Dawn,ReplyDelete
Just stumbled across your blog. Lovely!!! I am going to try out the fabric dollhouse very soon as I have a 15 month old. :)
These are just too cute and thanks for a wonderful idea.ReplyDelete
Great photographs
Those are adorable! I now must learn how to knit...ReplyDelete
That is a wonderful comment in the card .... thank goodness mother's love is blind and deaf .... we love our little ones regardless of how 'nice' they are to us in those early weeks!ReplyDelete
what cute little wee booties! I especially love the sentiment....too cute!ReplyDelete
Ah, those are just gorgeous. I don't know why I bothered knitting the recent bootees for Tiddler as he always kicks them off immediately. I should have made him some of these when he was super-tiny (though at 8lbs 7ozs I'm not sure he ever was tiny!)ReplyDelete
This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.ReplyDelete
Oh those are lovely!! I really do wish I could knit, but it's never gonna happen!ReplyDelete
Cute bootees and I love your little ones writing - neat work!!ReplyDelete
Happy Easter!
These are just too cute and thanks for a wonderful idea.ReplyDelete

I, too, hope she has a nice baby.
that note cracks me up! It's kind of like saying i hope you have a nice baby, not one of those awful crying keeping you up all night poopy babies...ReplyDelete
Oh, they are the sweetest!! Gorgeous colour, wonderful to think of them snuggling teeny, tiny toes.ReplyDelete
I was given a pair of hand spun and knitted booties for my first munchkins arrival... such a beautiful, heart-felt gift. : )
Lovely! But (now, don't be offended), your son's note takes the cake.ReplyDelete

ETFS FTSE 100® Super Short Strategy (Daily 2x) Go UCITS ETF factsheet
ETFS FTSE 100® Super Short Strategy (Daily 2x) Go UCITS ETF
Please read the risk warning before viewing the factsheet for the ETFS FTSE 100® Super Short Strategy (Daily 2x) Go UCITS ETF
There are leveraged and inverse (or short) ETF products available from some providers. ETFs that offer leverage, or that are designed to perform inversely to their underlying index or benchmark, are highly complex financial instruments that carry significant risks. These securities may not be appropriate for many investors, especially for those who plan to hold them longer than one trading session.
Leveraged and inverse ETFs have unique compounding, daily reset and leverage features that may significantly amplify risk, particularly for medium and long-term investors, and in periods of high market volatility. Before investing in any leveraged or inverse ETF, you should read the prospectus carefully.
ETFs are traded like shares and may not be for everyone. They closely track the performance of an index and as such their value can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you invested. If you are in any doubt as to their suitability, please seek independent financial advice.

Emma Watson: First Look at Sofia Coppola's The Bling Ring
The first official image from Sofia Coppola's new film The Bling Ring has arrived.
The Bling Ring is based on the true story of a group of teenagers who robbed the homes of the celebrities including Orlando Bloom, Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton.
The film stars Emma Watson, Taissa Famiga, Israel Broussard, Katie Chang, Leslie Mann and Claire Julien.
'I just watched a ton of reality TV," Watson said via EW. "I was doing an English course [at Brown University]. So I would go from reading Virginia Woolf to [watching] Kim Kardashian. I kind of loved it, this mix of super-high and super-low culture. I think it was a nice balance."

Do you suspect that you sleep with your eyes partially open? Perhaps someone has even told you that your eyelids tend to open while you sleep. Seem odd? Well, it's actually not uncommon for people to naturally sleep with one or both eyes partially open. Scientifically known as nocturnal lagophthalmos, when your eyelids do not fully close during rest, the ocular surface is overexposed to the open atmosphere. In fact, even a hairline gap between eyelids during sleep can result in major eye irritation and discomfort upon waking.
But lagophthalmos doesn't merely affect sufferers during sleep. Some patients with the condition also lack a 'full blink' during their waking hours. Insufficient blinking robs the eye of maximum ocular lubrication. This lack of lubrication often leads to dry spots on the cornea, leaving patients with gritty, itchy, tired eyes.
So what exactly causes this bizarre, yet common condition? It might sound a little strange, but nocturnal lagophthalmos is a form of facial paralysis. Such facial paralysis (sometimes temporary) can be caused by a number of different things including: infection, genetics, trauma, stroke, surgery or Bell's Palsy.
It's imperative to treat nocturnal lagophthalmos -and not just because it's um, kind of creepy- but because when the eyes are left open during sleep, tears evaporate and eyes do not get the rejuvenation that they require. When there are fewer tears available to wash away debris like dust and bacteria, sufferers experience blurred vision and more frequent eye infections. Treatment for nocturnal lagophthalmos varies, so it is crucial to seek out the underlying condition before choosing a treatment method.
Not surprisingly, one of the initial ways to treat nocturnal lagophthalmos is by simply wearing a mask while snoozing. So, we thought we'd try just that! We recently tried a pair of specialized goggles that provided coverage, comfort and a hot compress option by TranquilEyes. The Eye Hydrating Therapy Goggles not only helped seal our eyes and protect them from drafts and drying out during the night, they also blocked all light for a comfortable, undisturbed slumber. (An added bonus? The flexible, hypoallergenic goggles come with beads that can be conveniently heated in the microwave to stimulate tear production. The beads can also be placed in the freezer to reduce eye puffiness and relieve itch.)
However, in more serious cases of nocturnal lagophthalmos, some find it necessary to tape their eyes shut before bedtime. Surgery is another option for sufferers. An ophthalmic surgeon can implant small gold weights into the eyelids which assist in closing them fully. If you think you may be dealing with nocturnal lagophthalmos, consult an eye care professional as soon as possible.
Tired of waking up with red, painful eyes? You're in luck. You could WIN a TranquilEyes Eye Hydrating Goggles + Beads Kit (a $50 dollar value!) by posting anywhere in our forum, or by commenting on any of our blog posts! Start commenting and you'll be automatically entered. We'll announce the winner April 30, 2013. Good luck!


text: Zilog, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of IXYS Corporation (NASDAQ:IXYS) and a pioneer supplier of microcontrollers (MCUs) providing solutions for the industrial, telecommunication, automotive and consumer markets, introduces its new ZMOTION AC Load Controller Reference Design to expand its portfolio of digital motion detection solutions that target industry requirements for motion sensing and control of lighting and HVAC applications. This reference design demonstrates how to use Zilog's ZMOTION MCU with an IR-based motion detector to control power to an AC load in applications such as lighting and HVAC systems. This reference design uses the 8-pin Z8FS040 ZMOTION MCU to intelligently control a mechanical relay and provides adjustable controls for motion sensitivity, delay time and ambient light level. This new reference design also features Smart Delay technology. With Smart Delay, when motion is detected while the mechanical relay is powered off, the relay's running time is initially set to a maximum of 10 seconds rather than the full delay time set by the Time Delay potentiometer. If additional motion is detected within this 10-second period, the full delay timer set by the potentiometer is used. If additional motion is not detected, then the 10-second delay expires and the load is switched off. This methodology is useful for room occupancy detection and lighting control applications. For example, when the delay time is set for durations greater than 10 seconds and a person enters and leaves a room quickly, the lights are not turned on for the duration of the full delay time; instead, they are turned on for only 10 seconds. When an additional Delayed Detection feature is enabled and motion is detected while the delay time is set to 5 minutes or greater, motion is ignored until the final full minute of the delay cycle. This methodology is useful when the delay is set to a long value and the environment is harsh. It serves to ensure that the light does not remain on due to false motion events. When this feature is not enabled and motion is detected, the system immediately starts looking for motion again, and retriggers the output if motion is detected.

Prospective Cohort Study on Detection of Chlamydial ribosomal ribonucleic acid (rRNA) and deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in anorectal and cervicovaginal Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) infections during 8 weeks after directly observed treatment with Azythromycin. The investigators systematically assessed presence of Ct plasmid DNA and rRNA through multiple time-sequential measurements following treatment with 1000mg Azythromycin. By convenience sampling at our outpatient sexually transmitted diseases (STD) clinic, 46 non-pregnant women and 6 men were included, contributing 45 cervicovaginal and 15 anorectal infections. Over a period of 8 weeks, patients provided a total of 1016 self-taken cervicovaginal and/or anorectal swabs (response: 94%). All patients were negative for Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), gonorrhea and Lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV), tested in anorectal Ct. Usual care was applied by advising abstinence or safe sex for one week and by providing treatment for steady partners. Participants provided written informed consent.

Photo Flash: First Look at Michelle Krusiec, Alex Moggridge & More in Berkeley Rep's CHINGLISH
David Henry Hwang won three Obies and the Tony Award for Best Play with popular scripts like M. Butterfly and FOB. Now he's back with a canny comedy of cross-cultural errors, CHINGLISH, which makes its West Coast premiere at Berkeley Rep beginning August 29th and heads to Hong Kong in March 2013. Get a first look at the cast onstage below!
In Chinglish, an American businessman heads to Asia to score a lucrative contract for his family's firm – but the deal isn't the only thing getting lost in translation as he collides with a Communist minister, a bumbling consultant, and a suspiciously sexy bureaucrat. Two-time Obie-winner Leigh Silverman returns to stage the twists in a terrific play she took to Broadway. Love is on the line, and laughter fills the ledger in Chinglish.
The creative team behind the Broadway production of Chinglish reunites for this production. These artists have collectively won six Tony Awards, five Obie Awards, and seven Hewes Design Awards: David Korins (sets), Anita Yavich (costumes), Brian MacDevitt (lighting), Darron L West (sound), and Jeff Sugg and Shawn Duan (projections). The talented cast includes Vivian Chiu, Celeste Den, Michelle Krusiec, Austin Ku, Alex Moggridge, Brian Nishii, and Larry Lei Zhang. The assistant director is Oanh Nguyen.
Chinglish began previews in Berkeley Rep's Roda Theatre on August 24, opens August 29, and runs through October 7, 2012. Next, it plays at South Coast Repertory in Costa Mesa, Calif., from January 25 through February 24, 2013, and then appears at the Hong Kong Arts Festival from March 1 through March 6, 2013.

Jeff Greene says he beat Bill Gates on 'billionaire challenge'
Jeff Greene today told the Buzz that he has pledged "more than half" of his wealth to charity, and that he did well before Bill Gates and Warren Buffett began formally asking the nation's billionaires to do so.
"I made that commitment long, long before they ever did that idea, in my estate planning. The worst thing I think a wealthy person can do is to curse his child with enormous wealth and no drive to get anything done on his own," said Greene, who has a young son.
While Gates and Buffett have actively spread their wealth, Greene said his plan is for after he dies. He and his wife did start a charitable foundation with $10 million. Still, he is not listed among the billionaires who have accepted Gates' "giving pledge."
Greene is worth $1.4 billion, according to Forbes.

I have a red bump on the left side of my clitoris it hurts and also have bumps on both of my inner thighs im becoming very afraid and need advice what to do. Im just get off my menstrual period it was going down but now they are getting back hard and hurting what should i do???December 19, 2015 - 7:33pm
It's smooth and dark red. It is not raw or like an open sore. I'm not sure how long its been there .. I have had what I think is a recurring yeast infection of the past few months but I'm not sure if it's related.
Add a Comment8 Comments
I have the sane exact problem, it looks like a cut under my clitoris hood but I'm scared that it's something worse! I just got done shaving the area when I noticed that I was sore, so after the shower I looked at it and there it was, but it's almost circular, I'm not sureAugust 3, 2011 - 10:29pm
Mine just finally went away but it took a long time. If I had health insurance I definitely would have seen a doctor. I'm just glad it's gone!August 3, 2011 - 10:50pm
How did this turn out for you? I have the same problem.May 2, 2011 - 11:39pm
It just finally went away, thank goodness. I don't have health insurance so I didn't want to go to the doctor. Good luck!August 3, 2011 - 10:47pm
Hi Anonymous,
Thank you for the additional information. If you do not think that you had possibly cut yourself shaving, make an appointment to have a doctor look at it. It could be a number of things such as a possible sexually transmitted disease, a boil, etc.
Can you please keep us updated on what your results are?
Hi Anonymous,
Thank you for your question and Welcome to EmpowHer. Let me ask you something, do you happen to shave your vaginal area and perhaps cut yourself? This would be my first thought about your situation.
Please watch this "blister" very closely over the next couple days. If it doesn't go away on its own, I would certainly have this looked at by your physician.
Please keep us updated,
I do shave but this is not in an area I shave, its directly on my clitoris, under the 'hood' and it really does not resemble a blister because it doesn't appear to be fluid filled .. I used blood blister to describe it more because of the color, dark red.March 6, 2011 - 10:40am
