With the summertime stress slowly coming to an end, I'll be able to come back and post new blogs regularly here on The EdRay Report. I apologize for the months that I've not produced videos for this site. Real life responsibilities were so big that I could not make any vlogs for other things. I will try to upload videos here on The EdRay Report.

Summertime stress
I've been enduring a lot of stress this summer with personal responsibilities, tending to the garden, doing podcasts with other people, etc. When that interferes in your time to blog, your blogs will lose steam. How did I cope with the stress? Watch TV, spend time with family, tend to service in church. Jesus has helped me cope with a lot of stress this summer.
Mowing the lawn every week is a stress, tending to the garden has been a stress due to the humidity. Had it not been for the covers, the stress of tending to the garden would have been too much. The humidity outdoors make it incredibly hard to work.
While my responsibilities this summer is not over with, I wanted to alert you folks where I have been since the early part of the month. I'll try to keep up as time goes along.
Happy 4th of July
I've been busy away from this site either because of content for other sites on the internet or personal responsibilities such as preparing a big flower bed with limited resources. Folks, for all your hard work gardening, taking care of yourself, and economizing, take time out of this day to remember the troops that died for the freedom of America. Take time to embrace family members that fought and survived in wars to protect you even to this day.
You could be political to the people that fought for your freedom on social issues, you could show vitriol for the way they treat you, but please show respect for the people that fought for your freedom. You have to love them, but you don't have to like them for political and social reasons. It's all right to disagree with people, but do not disrespect their contributions for your freedom.
Enjoy the outdoors, splurge if you wish to pay respects to the American troops by barbecuing. July 4, 1776 isn't just another day in the annals of history, it was a day where Colonial Americans were fed up with society as we knew it. Things may be different in America from a social standpoint, but we must forget the things of old, and "Old Glory" is one of them. We could express our Constitutional rights with flags of racism, but we must respect "Old Glory" for bringing us close in a country where in-fighting drags us down.
My point is that do not let yourself be angry over the things of old and be appreciate toward the veterans even if you don't agree with them. Thank you for your time and Happy Independence Day.
Surviving the first 6 months of being independent
I created The EdRay Report to give my opinions on gardening, health, and economizing. Since YouTube is oversaturated with content to where you cannot clearly get your message out there, I decided to bring my content here in hopes of uploading videos. This was not an easy task due to poor web hosting choices. The first two months were the most stressful.
Due to my budget at the time, I couldn't afford to get a paid webhost that would protect this website in the event of failures. My original blogs are gone. I've learned from experience owning a website that if you want to protect your website from crashes that would destroy valuable information, you have to purchase a hosting service.
After I purchased a hosting service, I finally was able to access the plug-ins necessary to upload videos here independently. Thus, I took my content from my YouTube channel The EdRay Report and brought it here. Up until May, viewership was up. However, accessing the site was not easy.
I was trying to purchase security from this site and had a difficult time coding it to turn HTTP to HTTPS for The EdRay Report so people can view all the episodes of The EdRay Report. After a while, I figured it out, making the website more accessible. After that, viewership on this site took off.
While there have been a couple of times when the site went down, it would come back with the exception of a few weeks. I was burned out, stressed over personal situations, etc. But eventually I came around and contacted my webhost to fix the issue, allowing me to bring this site back up. I'm committed to trying to bring more quality episodes of The EdRay Report come July. Episode 13 will come soon.
What are the goals for The EdRay Report during the second half? Well, if I get Patreon donations, I will use it to renew my domain deal, get a new hosting contract, and eventually invest in equipment to improve video quality. If I do not get Patreon donations before the end of 2019, it's pretty much curtains for this website. Does this mean every episode of The EdRay Report vanishes? No.
As much as I do not want to reupload my core content on YouTube channel, I would like to keep all the episodes of The EdRay Report here where it's protected. Getting better equipment including a camera would allow me to evolve beyond vlogging. Meanwhile, you folks can spread the word about The EdRay Report and help me accomplish my goals into evolving this site from gardening, health, and economizing to more entertaining content independent from YouTube.
To conclude, for the people that have followed me from the beginning, I want to say thank you. Despite my struggles building up this website during the first six months, I will continue to provide blogs and vlogs during the second half of the year. Tell your friends, family, and even enemies about The EdRay Report. And please, if you enjoy my blogs and vlogs, support my Patreon if you please. Thank you for your time.

Why it's important to eat fat and fiber.
For the past 63 years, American citizens have been instructed to cut fat and load up on carbohydrates. This dietary dogma would rise again in the 1980s and 1990s due to low fat dairy, low cholesterol eggs, and a load of low fat sugary snacks. Another thing we do not take into account is that the majority of carbohydrates we eat are not complex, but processed carbohydrates. White bread, pizza, pasta, noodles. All of these things come from white flour. Why is this is a problem? One thing, lack of fiber.
While fiber from wheat, barley, and rye can satisfy us for a lot longer, the gluten makes the fiber insoluble, meaning it cannot be digested properly. You compare that to gluten free fibers like greens, broccoli, carrots, and berries. When doctors tell you to go on a low fat high fiber diet, that means cut the butter and eat oatmeal. Oatmeal is not exactly a good meal for your diet because the fibers will lower your cholesterol while speaking your blood sugar.
When you eat fiber, but no fat, the fiber cannot do it's job by scooping up toxins from your intestines and colon. The fiber is there, but the fat that was melted before being consumed has to survive the digestive tract to assist the fiber in lifting up the toxins. When fat and fiber work together, the toxins will exist your body by a bowel movement. That is how toxins should be out of your body. Not intense exercise routines daily.
When I talk about consuming fats, I talk about consuming butter, lard, bacon grease, beef drippings, pork drippings, chicken fat, and deer fat. Animal fats have nutrients. So consuming fats that are not solid at room temperature will help those fats bypass the digestive tract to get down to the intestines in a matter of 30 minutes give or take. After a bowel movement, you'll start gaining energy.
That's why if you consume fiber from berries, legumes, broccoli, or vegetables, have a hot drink with some sort of animal fat. Green tea, coffee, it don't matter. Put a tablespoon of fat in the drink. Combining fat and fiber in a clean diet not only cleanses the inside of your body, but for those that are overweight, this increases the odds of sustainable weight loss.
I'm not saying you can't have a pizza once in a blue moon. I'm not saying you can't enjoy pasta, but fibers from fruits and vegetables are more important. Without fiber and fat combined, you'll be sick for a long time. Sluggish, irritable, etc. American people are more irritable due to the low fat, high fiber diet. Upping the fat intake will help the fiber work more effectively.
Explanation time
Well, for those of you that have been wondering why The EdRay Report went down, here's the reason. Back in May, certain files were broken, causing an HTTP 500 issue that would not allow me to access the site. This is an easy situation to take care of by contacting my webhost. Usually it takes up to 48 hours for the HTTP 500 to work itself out. This was unfortunately not the case. I should have contacted my webhost about the issue immediately, but I didn't.
Another issue was the fact that I was burned out. Personal responsibilities, trying to maintain this website, and building up a fanbase on social media finally got the better of me. In other words, I was burned out. This did not mean that I abandoned responsibilities in my garden. When you make about a dozen episodes for an independent website, then work tirelessly to build up a reputation on social media, there comes a time when you need a break.
So think of what happened with my website being down for a while as a break to collect my thoughts and regain my senses. Don't get me wrong, I could have taken care of the issue immediately with my webhost, but I was mentally exhausted trying to build this website to talk about economizing. This is in no way the end of The EdRay Report as of yet.
In August, I will bring back the core content here on The EdRay Report. I may do some random videos like grocery shopping and such. It all depends on the situation in question. Meanwhile, for those of you on summer vacation, enjoy your summer vacation. I will post more blogs before getting back into vlogs. Meanwhile, you can go on the list where you can view all the episodes of The EdRay Report. Thank you for your time ladies and gentlemen. I apologize for what happened.
I apologize to you viewers for not posting stuff regularly. Real life responsibilities have kept me from posting blogs and videos. The garden has been my main responsibility. Pruning, fertilizing, mulching, etc. Collecting sticks to mulch flower beds and herb beds. I've also collected sticks to mulch fruit trees.
Other works like mowing the lawn weekly, cleaning up the roof, and taking care of other things has taken a toll on my schedule. I will post Episode 13 of The EdRay Report soon, so bear with me ladies and gentlemen. Summertime is coming next month, so I'll be posting one episode of The EdRay Report a month, but I will try and write blogs here.
Summertime is usually the season I have to take the most responsibility. Even in 100 degree weather, I will have to take care of major responsibilities. I apologize for saying that word to an annoying levels, but this is why I have not posted regularly. Until next time folks, take care of yourselves.

The progress of May
Episode 12 will likely be an update of my Spring garden. I have added stuff to the garden alongside figuring out innovative ways to cut usage of water. Because of the persistence and innovation, I'm ready to share secrets for those that are about to have their planting season ready.
An EdRay Special will be health related as I talk about calories. There are a variable of calories that I will discuss. Then I will talk about why calories in general are not the enemy of health, but rather the types of calories. This special will allow people to enjoy good food again, but I'll have to explain calories from a scientific perspective.
Episode 13 will be health regarding life preserving properties. You do not want to miss that episode. So three videos will be posted here for the month of May. Tell your friends, family, and even enemies about The EdRay Report. Until next time, take care of yourselves.

As we enter May
April has been a challenging month for The EdRay Report. Episode 10 and Episode 11 were tough to focus on. Then I aired an EdRay Special on Cannabis on April 20th. That special is the reason why I did not create Episode 12. What do I have for Episode 12 for The Edray Report? I'll have to figure that out for myself.
I appreciate you folks for following me and supporting my content. I will try and provide more content as we approach the month of May 2019. Tell your friends, family, and even enemies about The EdRay Report. Thank you and good day ladies and gentlemen.

What to expect for April
Episode 10 of The EdRay Report will be a milestone episode as I talk about diabetes. While magazines and other stuff exist on the issue, we realize that there are underlying variables about diabetes. So stay tuned for the latest information on Episode 10.
Meanwhile, The EdRay Special on cannabis will be uploaded on April 20th, AKA 4/20. This will be the first time that I collaborate with another person, so be prepared on this day. I will be talking about the uses for cannabis that does not involve smoking just to alter your dopamine levels for pleasure. I can't believe I'm talking about this, but that's the way it is.
Gardening blogs will contain pictures as I work a lot more outdoors. Trying to build a new compost pen, but that will take time. Fear not, I will do my best to create a sustainable system in which I can transform my backyard into paradise. Permaculture takes time, but if done right, it will change the landscape of your backyard. Until next time, take care of yourself.

Girona – love at first sight
For a lot of people Girona is only a stop along the way to the Costa Brava or Barcelona, but Girona has more than a few things to offer and is definitely worth a visit. Already during my first visit I fell in love with this delightful, vivid and colourful town.
Bottom kissing
We start our tour at the bridge named Pont de San Feliu. From here you have the best view over the colourfully painted houses at the river Onyar. Orange, yellow, red…reflected in the small waves of the river, a lovely photo motif. We continue our walk, past the lion statue La LLeona at the Plaça de Sant Feliu and head towards old town. It is said that you can't be a proper citizen of Girona without having kissed the bottom of the lion at least once. For visitors, the kiss promises a soon return to Girona. I forgo this custom, because l am certain of coming back anyway.
Historic Baths dating back to 1194
Walking on the Carrer dels Calderers, we get to a small street called Pujada de Sant Feliu, which leads upwards. Here you can find a nice place for having a coffee or something to eat. Fortified, we pass by the Basílica Sant Feliu and go to the Arabic Baths. The entrance only costs 2 € (students only pay the half), so indeed a true bargain.
Witch hunting
Later, we follow the stairs up to the part behind the Cathedral of Girona. The view from there over the city is fascinating. We stroll along the small alleys up to the Jardins de la Francesa, a small garden, where you can find beautiful blue benches inviting you to have a seat and just relax. At the façade, there is an interesting detail to observe: a gargoyle shaped like a woman, called the witch. According to the legend, there was a woman throwing stones against the processions, until she herself got fossilized. In the garden you can also start the city wall-tour, which we postpone until later.
Game of Thrones in Girona
Now it's time to leave the garden and go to the place in front of the Cathedral. The Cathedral of Girona was built in various phases during the 14th, 15th and 17th century and has the widest Gothic nave in the world. From the Cathedral there are 90 stairs going downwards. This outside staircase is the biggest baroque staircase and even was the scene for the famous TV series Game of Thrones. They even offer GOT tours around the city with stops at the various scenes.
Travelling through time
Downstairs, we walk on the Carrer de la Força (street of force) towards the old city and the Jewish quarter. Narrow, dark alleys are waiting for us and we now realize why Girona was serving as a medieval film set. We ourselves feel like back in time. The street of force was between 889 and 1492, so 600 (!!!) years, part of the Jewish quarter, also called Call.
Time for shopping
Always straight ahead, passing tapas bars and restaurants, we arrive at the Plaça del Vi, turn right and go over the the bridge Pont de Pedra to the other side of the town. We turn right again into the Carrer de Santa Clara, following the street until we arrive at the next bridge. Of course, we can't go past the shops without taking a look inside. In Girona there are so many small and adorable shops and boutiques, a paradise for all who love to shop.
Eiffel bridge
Passing trees with gorgeous pink blossoms, we walk over the Pont de les Peixeteries and return to the other city side. Girona has a large number of bridges, connecting both sides of the town, which are separated by the river Onyar. The Pont de les Peixeteries is a special highlight as it was constructed by Gustave Eiffel. The impressive metal structure leads us to the Rambla de la Llibertat. There is a lot going on here.
The most gorgeous bridge
Walking down the Rambla, we come to the Pont de Sant Agustí and to the Plaça de la Independència. Under the round arches, it's finally time to enjoy a café con leche while watching the busy life at the square, one of my favourite things to do. After our short coffee break, we walk past the Plaça de la Independència and over the Pont d'en Gómez, in my opinion the most beautiful bridge of Girona.
Above the rooftops of Girona
Back at our starting point, we are now going to explore part of the old city wall. From there you have a stunning view over the rest of the popular sights, like for example the Basílica Sant Feliu, the Església de Sant Nicolau, the monastery of Sant Pere de Galligants and the small gardens and parks between. There are so many different possibilities to discover this unique town. The best thing to do is to follow your hunch. Countless stairs promise secret surprises, for sure.
What you definitely have to try:
Tapas at Zanpanzar
Ice cream at Rocambolesc

Sent from my iPhone
The team descended upon GigaOm's Mobilize conference yesterday and was surprised to find the press attending had swollen to about 200, which is quite impressive given I heard the overall attendees were around 800. Why so many press so suddenly? Motorola announced a new phone at the conference called the Cliq, which utilizes Google's Android operating system. The whizz factor of the phone is the visually stimulating screen packed with pictures and text bubbles that illustrate social media conversations come alive.
"I can't imagine in five to seven years' time, consumers not thinking of this" (cut to Motorola's co-CEO Sanjay Jha shaking his phone at Om Malik, founder of GigaOm) "as their primary computer."
I agreed with Jha. I too believe the phone is heading in the direction of the PC and can't wait for the day I can go through an airport security line and not have to lug out my behemoth Dell and then get electrocuted when I pick it up after it's gone through the x-ray scan.
Another highlight of the day for us was supporting CEO of Flirtomatic, Mark Curtis, at the conference. He spoke on the "Monetizing Mobile Apps" panel and had some great stats to share:
"A mobile user is 3 times more likely to spend money on our service than an internet user."
"Mobile advertising has a great future ahead, but it's currently only 25% of Flirtomatic's current revenue. Flirtomatic sells mobile advertising to it's users so that users bid the most exposure on Flirtomatic. Flirtomatic gets the most exposure: 4x CPM on user-based-advertising vs brand-based advertising."
When asked how do developers monetize mobile web apps, Mark responded:
"I think they need a 3-5 year plan. It's possible to monetize mobile web apps, but it's not easy. "When the [carrier] revenue share on billing gets to a more reasaonable level, I'm going to be doing handsprings."

I've been waiting for this feature for ages. I've been synchronizing my calendar between Google and my BlackBerry, but have been missing the ability to sync my contacts as well – especially because my BlackBerry now refuses to connect to my PC (some "unknown USB device" error…uff). While the iPhone gets all the cool apps, I'm happy to see we at least finally get the "basics."
If you are like me and use a boring BlackBerry, here's the link to the new version of Google sync with calendar and contacts:Google Sync for BlackBerry

U.S. aquaculture sales surpass $1 billion
Aquaculture production is now a $1.1 billion-dollar industry, according to results from the 2005 Census of Aquaculture.
The count was the second national aquaculture census by the Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service. The first took place in 1998.
Sales of fish, shellfish, and other aquaculture products grew about 12 percent between 1998 and 2005.
Census results show that food fish—including catfish, perch, salmon, hybrid striped bass, tilapia, and trout—accounted for about 62 percent of 2005 aquaculture sales. Mollusks—including abalone, clams, mussels, and oysters—comprised about 19 percent of 2005 sales. Crustaceans, such as lobsters and shrimp, and ornamental fish, such as koi and tropical fish, each accounted for about 5 percent of sales. Baitfish and sport fish comprised 4 percent and 2 percent, respectively.
Mississippi led the nation in sales of aquaculture products, with sales of nearly $250 million in 2005. Arkansas, Alabama, and Louisiana were the other states with sales topping $100 million. Louisiana supported 873 aquaculture farms, more than twice as many as any other state.
The 2005 Census of Aquaculture collected information on issues including production methods, water sources, sales, distribution, and farm labor. The census defined an aquaculture farm as any commercial or noncommercial site that raised, sold, or distributed at least $1,000 worth of aquaculture products during 2005.
Complete results of the aquaculture census are available at www.nass.usda.gov.

The best way to prepare spiritually for Easter is by making a good confession. With this in mind, the parishes of the greater Jamestown area will gather at St. John Church on MONDAY, APRIL 3RD for a
LENTEN PENANCE SERVICE at 7:00 PM.
Following the Liturgy of the Word in which we will acknowledge our need for forgiveness, several priests will be available for individual confessions in the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Everyone is invited and welcome to attend. This is a time of grace and renewal in Christ especially if you have been away from confession for some time.
Plans are now being made for the NATIONAL CATHOLIC YOUTH CONVENTION which will take place in the fall. If you are in grades 9 – 12 you are cordially invited to attend. You will be receiving information in the mail soon regarding the upcoming Convention. If you don't receive any info within the next couple of weeks, contact Paula Slagle at 485-8783. Keep checking future bulletins for more info as we prepare for this exciting Convention!
Sunday, March 19
Collection Total – $7,942.63
Thank you for your support of our parish ministries!
Our Parish family would like to say a special "thank you" to everyone who prepared and served the foods and pastries at our recent St. Joseph Table. We received many positive compliments on the setting and people were so grateful to have the opportunity to partake of the traditional fare and that St. Joseph was appropriately honored. In keeping with tradition, donations of food were made to several local organizations that assist people in our community. Cookies were given to Chautauqua Adult Day Care at its two sites, boxed pasta goods were given to the St. Susan Center, and sheet cakes were given to the Boys and Girls Club. We also shared with our neighbors at St. Mary of Lourdes Parish in Bemus Point by a donation of cannoli shells and filling. Viva San Giuseppe!
Once again, we are most grateful to Carm Ciancio and Sue Boland whose diligent planning and hard work provided all who joined us with the opportunity to share food and fellowship in the spirit of gratitude for St. Joseph's intercessions.
Lent is our time to consider our need for forgiveness of sins and seek reconciliation with God and one another which is accomplished by receiving the Sacrament of Penance. In all parishes of the Diocese, each Wednesday, "the light is on for you" and a priest is available to hear confessions. Here at Holy Apostles, Father Dennis is present twice, once in the morning at SS. Peter and Paul Church in the Reconciliation Room in St. Joseph's Chapel from 11:15 AM to Noon, and in the evening at St. John Church from 5:30 – 6:15 PM. Confessions will continue until Easter. This is in addition to the regular Saturday afternoon time at St. John Church.
LENTEN FISH DINNERS continue every Friday during Lent (except for Good Friday) at St. John Church hall from 4:30 – 7:00 PM. Adults $10 and children $8. A variety of fish dinners (battered or broiled) as well as Vegetable Lasagna is available. Join us!
STATIONS OF THE CROSS continue during Lent – at SS. Peter and Paul Church on Fridays at 11:15 AM, and on Wednesdays at 6:30 PM at St. John Church.
The Stations are a way to pray and meditate on Christ's sacrifices for us. Please join us.
I'm writing this on the "ides of March" on the second day of a raging snowstorm which has caused all sorts of cancellations and disruptions of peoples routines. Who would have thought that after enjoying temperatures in the 70's at the end of February we would be coping with mid-winter conditions in the middle of March? Go figure. Perhaps it is situations such as these that are the origin of the saying, "the only thing certain is death and taxes." At any rate, by the time you read it will be spring and maybe all of the snow piles will have disappeared.
I mention this because the unpredictable nature of the weather can serve as a metaphor for the uncertainty of our lives. As careful as our plans may be we cannot say with a high degree of certainty what will happen tomorrow. This is true in our practice of the faith as well. How many of us, for example, began Lent with the intention to become more fervent in our faith only to have unforeseen circumstances get in the way of realizing our goal? This can be discouraging and may even lead to our giving-up and thinking ourselves hopeless. Yet when this happens it provides the opportunity to double-down on living the Gospel. Indeed, it was probably in view of circumstances such as this that our Lord made it clear to the disciples that he would be with them always (see Matthew 28: 16-20).
This is now the fourth Sunday of Lent and we would do well to consider in what areas of our lives we most need to be aware of that abiding presence of the Risen Christ. Especially when something unpredictable happens and we are knocked off curse it is easy to forget about the Lord's promise. One of the values of a daily routine of prayer and Scripture reading is that such practices keep us grounded in our Catholic world view which sees the temporal in the light of the eternal. Often, when I'm faced with unpredictable circumstances I'll remind myself that because God is in control there's likely a reason for the situation, and I can best handle it by discerning what God wants me to find there.
This is where spoken prayer needs to yield to silence and listening, to what is referred to as "waiting upon God." Given the reality of the world in which we live, so filled with activity and noise, this is hard work and requires a determined act of the will. All prayer, Scripture reading and study, all devotions, should lead to and flow from a personal encounter with Jesus the Risen Lord. As with all personal relationships, this is a two-way street, and it requires of us a willingness to hear what Jesus wants to say to us. Our spending time in silence gives him such an opportunity, and may be just the key to making sense of why the unpredictable is happening.
Thus, as we move ever closer to Easter we might ponder the latest unpredictable occurrence in our lives and ask Jesus, "What are you trying to tell me?"
Be at peace,
Father Dennis Mende

|MAGIC: Five favorite labels and designers
Though we had three whole days to be at MAGIC, it still wasn't enough time to see everything. I tried my best to explore as much as I could, and stepped into the booths that intrigued me the most. I'm a sucker for beautiful displays, and all of these appealed to my aesthetic in so many ways.
MAGIC is great because there are so many designers: big and small, new and old, independent and established, American and foreign--I had an awesome time learning about all these labels I had never heard of before.
Here are my five new favorite clothing labels and brands I discovered at MAGIC:
|Yumi at MAGIC // Fall 2012
Yumi and Nick & Mo's joint booth caught my eye immediately--perhaps it was the festive, Jubilee-worthy British flag dress on the mannequin. When I browsed through the pieces, I spotted bright reds, cobalts, and teals, mixed in with youthful stripes and polka-dots. I loved the youthful and playful vibe, and wanted to own just about everything. It's was preppy but fresh, and doesn't take itself too seriously.
|Jenny Carle Designs at MAGIC // Fall 2012
Jenny Carle Designs booth while speed-exploring the Project show at Mandalay (it was just about closing time and I had less than an hour to walk the floor). The line is feminine, soft, and sophisticated, with beautiful prints and cuts. I liked that the designs are clean and streamlined. She's definitely a designer to watch out for, and I can't wait to see her future designs.
|Stop Staring! at MAGIC // Fall 2012
Stop Staring! was one of the first booths I visited at MAGIC, and after I snapped a few photos of the models, I ended up meeting the designer herself. Alicia Estrada is bubbly, enthusiastic, and knows how to dress a woman. Her 50s-inspired wiggle and swing dresses are flattering on just about every body type, and exude sex appeal without being vulgar.
|Darling at MAGIC // Fall 2012
Darling's booth was one of the ones I kept visiting over and over again--I kept finding and falling in love with more things each time. The line has a modern vintage feel to it. Intricate details like tiny flower appliques, lace collars, and fine pleats added a special touch to the designs. I even borrowed a couple of their pieces for my Social House Discovery Session discussion (a fashion "show and tell" panel I presented at with a few other bloggers).
|A'reve at MAGIC // August 2012
A'reve is exactly that--a dream. Girlie, sweet, delicate, and vintage-inspired with a muted color palette, A'reve has lovely items that will outlive any trend. Ruffled collars, pleated skirts, puff sleeves adorned much of the line.
Also, there were bows. Lots and lots of bows. And you know how I feel about that.
Hope you enjoyed reading about five of my new favorite labels!
Which one is your new favorite?

CHESTER BENNINGTON Is 'Really Proud' Of Songs On LINKIN PARK's Upcoming Studio Album
LINKIN PARK singer Chester Bennington offered an update on the progress of the band's next album. In a video message posted on LINKIN PARK's YouTube channel, Chester said: "I've been working really hard on some vocals for the last couple of months. And we've done some really great stuff in here. The songs are amazing. I'm really proud of what we've accomplished in the studio so far. We've got a lot of great material that I hope challenges our fanbase as well as inspires them as much as it has us. And so I'm really looking forward to you guys hearing the stuff. It's, like, super, super exciting."
LINKIN PARK singer Mike Shinoda recently said that the biggest challenge of recording this new disc was that "we approached the process differently."
LINKIN PARK guitarist Brad Delson added: "There's a certain amount of experimentation and failure, essentially trial and error that's baked into this process. We've made so many records and we clearly know how to make a record and we definitely didn't take the easy way out this time."
Delson continued: "The songs are shaping up so well, we just want them to be as phenomenal when we share them with you… as we imagine them in our heads."
Shinoda and Delson also revealed that LINKIN PARK has worked with outside songwriters on the new album, with Delson saying: "As much as we know how to approach songwriting, everybody does it differently so being able to like sit with someone and kind of pour ourselves into their process has been really exciting."
The yet-to-be-titled new LINKIN PARK album does not yet have a release date, but will follow up 2014's "The Hunting Party".

Scientists at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, have named 19 newly found species of ferns after Lady Gaga, reports New York Times.
All part of the same genus of plant, the newly named species include 'Gaga germanotta', after the singer's real name (Stefani Germanotta), and 'Gaga monstraparva', after the Latin translation of 'little monsters'.
The ferns reproduce through spores and the fully-grown plants can end up being male, female, or bisexual. Kathleen Pryer, professor of biology and director of the school's herbarium, explained that this is part of the reason why Gaga was bestowed the honour. Pryer said:
[It's] because of her fervent defense of equality and individual expression… We think that her second album, 'Born This Way,' is enormously empowering, especially for disenfranchised people and communities like LGBT, ethnic groups, women…"
A graduate student studying the genus' DNA also discovered that the letters GAGA appear in the plant's genetic sequence.
Last month, a new type of parasitoid wasp discovered in Thailand was named Aleiodes Gaga after the singer.

Thorpe Park, one of the South's premier theme parks has released video footage of people's terrified reactions while testing an upgrade to their popular 'ghost train' attraction. the Derren Brown Experiment.
A group of ten volunteers who all come from walks of life where showing no fear is part of the job description were quickly reduced to "quivering wrecks" by the virtual reality ride which they experienced under 'laboratory conditions"
The list of brave human guinea pigs who don't scare easily included a boxer, a bungee jumper, a TA reservist, a detective who deals with gang crime, a stunt woman, a security guard, a martial arts instructor, a prison officer and a secondary school teacher.
Heart rates hit 183 bpm as the mind manipulating magician Derren Brown subjected the volunteers to virtual shock after shock as he played them the latest spine tingling footage form the yet to be launched attraction now named Derren Brown's Ghost Train: Rise of the Demon.
The world famous Illusionist said:
"Over the last few weeks I have been testing out the components of the attraction and decided to run scare tests on a selection of participants who claim they are totally fearless – the reactions have been incredible. Visitors to the Ghost Train will experience a heart stopping combination of next generation technology, grand illusion, live action and special-effects, completely unalike anything they will have seen before. We are making this bigger, better and scarier than last year."
Afterwards, stunt woman, Carol Nulty gasped:
"I thought I had to be pretty fearless in my job, but this lived up to expectations, the VR is flawlessly real – you really believe there is a demon in the room with you! This is not a ride for the faint hearted."
Another participant, Emilia Cain-Heritage added:
"As a bungee jumper, I face fear on a regular basis but this was a new level in fear – so, so real and absolutely terrifying'."
Derren Brown's Ghost Train: Rise of the Demon opens on Friday 31 March 2017 and Eastleigh News Editor Kieran James is will be one of the first people to try it!
Look out for Kieran's terrifying review coming soon!

According to "Bad,"
What I care about is rationalism. Skepticism. Science. And while these values do, in fact, feed into why I don't share the beliefs of theists, they aren't necessary for me to be an atheist (I could imagine not believing even without them). Nor do I think that sharing similar values would make it necessary for someone else to become an atheist. But I care about these values, and there's a big ole' period at the end of that sentence.From this standpoint, atheism can be viewed as an incidental outcome. If one applies reason, skepticism, science, and the like, one arrives at atheism. No atheist movement is needed, and in fact, any such movement might even detract from a focus on reason.
This is an argument I have heard many times before, and each time I encounter it, it strikes me as attractive but incomplete. The thing is, this is an argument that cannot simply be discarded wholesale. It contains a vital kernel of truth that must be acknowledged.
Bad is absolutely correct that atheism is often a consequence of reason's application. It is not a path from which one accomplishes a goal, but an endpoint. Reason leads to atheism; not the other way around. Bad is also right to point out that atheism does not mean anything other than the lack of theism. It is not a philosophy, religion, or worldview.
But does this necessarily mean that there should be no atheist movement? Not when one recognizes what the atheist movement is really about - shared identity.
It is natural for humans to seek shared identity. We label everything around us as a way of understanding our world and helping us react to it more quickly. By uniting under the atheist banner, we communicate something to each other and to the believers. As long as we continue to remember what atheism is and is not, I see little problem with using it in such a way. Of course, I will also advocate for reason, skepticism, and science. I have taken these tools to their logical conclusion - atheism.
The atheist movement is a movement about shared identity. It is not synonymous with atheism but quite a bit larger and oriented toward social change. The atheist movement is about promoting atheism and celebrating our shared identity as atheists. It is also about overcoming anti-atheist bigotry, helping others develop more realistic ideas of what atheism is, and working toward a secular society. While atheism is not a worldview, the atheist movement does often start to look like one. Atheism does not define us, but it is a part of how we define ourselves.

If you were wondering why I have the smallest eyes, now you know; it's because I grew up in Seoul, South Korea. I lived there for 8 years and felt Korean by the time we left. It was my home. They were my people. I loved seeing all the tourists sights that used to be my stomping ground, along with the nasty street food vendors that I wanted nothing to do with, and still don't.
And just for the record, I've stayed in that exact Hilton hotel room in Korea, so it's like I was on this episode. If you don't think that's enough to make it like I was on the episode, I've also been to nearly every place they went. So yes, I dated Juan Pablo in Seoul, Korea.
If you would like a Korean lesson, here you go:
"bo-bo-jew-say-oh" = please kiss me
"sah-rhang-hey-oh" = I love you
"sah-gay-hey-jew-ship-she-o" = discount please
To say I'm fluent in Korean would be an understatement. I mean, I know the 3 most important phrases in their language!
And because I am half Korean, the following bugs me:
-"Korea? I don't even have a kimono"... uh, that's Japan, sweetie
-K.POP - I was into it. I knew Korean rap songs and my sister and I used to perform them for the family. I'm telling you-- I thought I was Korean.
-Way to JP's heart... dancing. He'd be so into me
-"K.POP is as big as the spice girls back in the day"... that's the most recent reference JP could come up with?
-Nikki just kept it in her comfort zone of just the side step, just like Hitch taught her. I respect her for that.
-I expected more out of the NBA dancer. Her skills got her a baby daddy, so I had higher expectations for her.
-Kat really can dance but she was so annoying about it
-Oh, we are taking a picture? Better bust out the peace sign
-"I got a job and moved to Arizona because my dad was an alcoholic for my whole life..." Yeah, I don't see the connection there, Kat.
-How do these girls like JP so much when they don't actually have real conversations with him? They seem so one-sided.
-"I'm a great diaper changer." Yeah, she's 6...Camilla isn't in diapers.
-Why does she bug me so bad?
-I hate Opera. Call me ignorant but I just can't stand it.
-Why does he like her so much?
-She just told him that she basically doesn't want children and then he immediately hands her the rose? How does that happen?
-Things must be getting really wild if you're spelling 'crazy' with a 'K' -- that's a true sign
-I would be the Clare on the date. I do NOT do food from the ocean. I would have made them force feed me the Octopus and it would have ended with me crying and dry heaving. OK, I mean throwing up. (I'm not exaggerating... that has actually really happened to me)
-"I want a kiss" and JP responds with "Sorry, I can't. I have a daughter" How dumb would you feel? That's like when someone tells you they love you and you say thank you. You just feel so dumb.
-I'm sure boys love to hear that you threw up in your mouth and then swallowed it. That's super hot, Clare.
-Andi is one of my favorites
-How does the dog lover keep getting a rose?
-He kept the black girl even though we didn't see her once in this whole episode but got rid of the cute teacher he seemed to think was darling? Sometimes I don't get this show.
-Poor Lauren got rejected on the kiss and then the rose ceremony? She might go hurt herself now... so sad.
The best part of the entire episode was Juan Pablo lip syncing to the Korean K.Pop song during the credits. Give me more JP videos like that.

This past weekend was a tough one for us when it came to getting on the bicycle. David was not feeling well, and he decided to pull out from Saturday's criterium race. For a change of pace, we ventured over to Talcott Mountain State Park. We hiked to the top for a view. I bet it's breathtaking in the Fall with Autumn colors! I found that hiking the steep uphill winded me. I needed my inhaler, and that didn't feel good. To top it off, as soon as I stepped on the trail, my allergies stirred up -- my eyes were itchy and watery. I had a terrible time of it, and I could hardly wait to get back into the van so I could blow my runny nose.
|Our view on Saturday (3/24/12) from a climb to Heublein Tower
at Talcott Mountain state Park in Simsbury, CT
After that, we drove to visit with my elderly grandfather in Rhode Island. That was the greatest part of our day's activities. He thoroughly enjoyed our company, and he was especially entertained by my daughter's viewpoint of other kids her age. Her animated story-telling skills made him smile. We read him his mail (because he can not see very well), and I left with him a homemade meal and a few cider donuts we picked up earlier from the farm stand.
Sunday turned out to be another cool, dreary day with the threat of rain. We decided to catch up on our growing list of household to-do's. David's enthusiasm for tackling each item on the list impressed me! We made terrific progress and later on took in an afternoon movie at the theater.
I must say that I am so grateful for the wonderful husband I have! Of all the options we had to see different movies -- and even though The Hunger Games was pulling in huge crowds, David agreed to see a movie of my liking: The Vow. I loved it. : )
Later on in the day, we got a Red Box movie rental that David picked: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo
We snuggled, and I fell asleep in his arms.
Sure, it was unusual for us, but we did not ride on Sunday. We took a break and welcomed other activities. It's good to bring a sense of balance into our lives.

This error is caused by a setting in your PayPal account that only works if you are using PayPal's own payment buttons, rather than buttons provided by an independent service such as E-junkie. To fix this error:
- Log into your PayPal account;
- Go to Account Settings (⚙ gear icon) > Website Payments > Website Preferences;
- Scroll down to Encrypted Website Payments;
- Set Block Non-encrypted Website Payment: OFF;
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Save.
Don't worry, your buyer checkouts will still be securely encrypted even with that setting disabled. That setting only prevents tampering with PayPal's own purchase button codes, where the item price and other product settings are configured in the button code itself in your page. Theoretically, a crook could copy your page, modify PayPal's button codes in their copy, and use their tampered version of that page to place an order, so PayPal's encrypted-buttons option is intended to foil that technique.
With E-junkie, your prices and product settings are configured in your Seller Admin, and our button codes only contain a pointer to look up those settings in our database. This makes our button codes immune to the sort of tampering that could happen with PayPal's own un-encrypted buttons, therefore PayPal's Encrypted Website Payments setting is unnecessary to prevent tampering in our case.

Music Crush: Grimes
7 years ago by
Last week I saw Grimes perform and haven't been able to stop thinking about her/listening to her music…
There is something about the music that almost puts you in a trance-like state (don't worry G, I am still being super productive!!). Also, she just radiates coolness. Like cool in a way I will never be, no matter how hard I try. Cool in a way where she can wear a turband and have her hair dyed 1,000 different colors and she just rocks it.
Note: The closest I've gotten to Grimes level coolness is ombré-ing my hair and downloading the T-Pain app (if you don't have that app, it's worth the $2.99) on my iPhone in attempt to make auto-tuned trance music magic (I've failed).
For those of you that don't know her or do and love her, you can download her albums (pay what you want!) on her site.

Every link of America's observation-orientation-decision-action loop is broken. One example of a broken observation is our blindness about America's fading economy. As seen in the worries about a lost decade ahead, similar to that Japan experienced following the 1989 bust (see Wikipedia for details). That would be unpleasant, but the reality is worse: we just experienced a lost decade.
The really bad news: the past decade was our last opportunity to address our looming problems (high debt plus retiring boomers) before they hit. We missed the turnoff for the easy options.
- Our lost decade
- Some implications
- Afterword and for more information
(1) Our lost decade
Some changes since July 1999:
- Total employment: up 5% from 134 million in July 1999 to 140 million in July 2009. (source: BLS)
- Total population: up aprox 12.7% during this period; this is not strictly comparable to the employment change (source: Census).
- Total hours worked in the private sector: down 2.5% during this period (see graph, with data thru May 2009)
The bottom line from these and other changes: the employment to population ratio, back to where it was in 1983.
Making things worse: real wages (after inflation) are flat over the past decade, for all but the top income quintile (see Wikipedia for details). Add together more people than jobs added, fewer total hours worked, flat real wages. The result: flat to down real income for most households.
This graph show results through 2007. The trend since 2007 has of course grown worse. This graph is from "Median income rose as did poverty in 2007; 2000s have been extremely weak for living standards of most households", Jared Bernstein, Economic Policy Institute, 26 August 2008. Data is from the US Census 2007 American Community Survey.
(2) Some implications
In one sense, unknown. 1999 was a good year. 2009 is a bad year. Perhaps this is just a cycle, peak to trough — and soon the economy might begin a new boom.
For reasons discussed elsewhere (see the posts at the end), that shiny outcome seems unlikely. If so, that's unfortunate Soon the boomers begin retiring in large numbers. This recession might have started this earlier than expected, as many people fired in their late 50's are de facto retired.
The past decade was our opportunity to prepare. Instead we continued our orgy of borrowing, weakening our economic foundations instead of strengthening them. This muted the impact of our lost decade, much as an alcoholic dulls the pain with booze.
So we will confront the next phase of the age wave with massive household and government debt, which greatly narrows our options. The next decade or so might be the greatest challenge yet for the American republic. Perhaps even greater than the Civil War, albeit a different kind of stress. Despite the doomster's certainties, nothing we face cannot be surmounted.
We need to hang together and act wisely. We're done so in the past, and can do so again. But the clock is running. Time is not on our side.

While South Carolina's foreclosures are showing steady signs of improvement, the state is struggling to distribute the federal money it received three years ago to help people keep their homes, an article in Greenville Online said.
According to the article, of the $295 million received, less than 20% has been distributed.
In an effort to get the money out, officials of SC Help, a nonprofit established by the state housing Finance and Development Authority, redesigned its website and kicked off a statewide campaign, the article explains.
"Because this program may even help qualified homeowners who apply for assistance before they miss a mortgage payment, we're pleased that SCHELP.gov has now been completely streamlined and designed with homeowners who are in a difficult situation in mind," said Matt Rivers, director of SC HELP.
