Brussels further dilutes Cameron's 'deal'
"David Cameron's 'thin gruel' EU referendum deal has been watered down even further, according to documents leaked last night… Eurosceptics said the changes reassert the 'powers of the institutions of the European Union', water down so-called protections for the City and make it more difficult for the UK to trigger its 'emergency brake' on migrant benefit claims." – Daily Mail

Melanie Phillips: The Prime Minister is peddling nonsense to keep us in the EU
"Having been humiliated by his paltry requests being further watered down, the prime minister has merely demonstrated just how powerless within the EU Britain actually is. Now he has made the absurd threat that Brexit would prompt the migrant squatter camp in Calais to decamp to Britain. This not only suggests that an independent UK would be unable to make any bilateral treaties with other countries, but that its own border controls would collapse." – The Times (£)

The bungles, rows, and infighting on UKIP's road to election failure
"It was the election in which almost four million people backed Ukip but it won only one seat, prompting Nigel Farage to call for voting reform and leading to an outcry among supporters. However, it can now be revealed that staff bungling, infighting among officials and rows between candidates played just as big a role in the party's failure to convert popularity into more than the single seat of Clacton, where Douglas Carswell ploughs a solitary furrow as Ukip's sole representative in the House of Commons." – Daily Telegraph

The Final W+P Wish List
Have you guys been DYING to know what I want for Christmas all week long!? No? Okay, fair enough, but I'm going to tell you anyway. There are about 3.5 things on this list that I'll actually receive and the rest are aspirational (ie. I'll just have to wait until Valentine's Day (HA, yeah right), my birthday, or when I find a sugar daddy via Christian Mingle).
1. Laura Mercier almond coconut body & bath collection: I love almond. I love coconut. I love fancy bath products that make my skin feel like silk and smell like paradise. This should do the trick. Products, $15-$55 each, available at Sephora, LauraMercier.com
2. Solid gold iPhone case: Guess what? This SOLID GOLD iPhone case is TEN THOUSAND F*CKING DOLLARS. I don't want it. It looked pretty in the collage and I had to put at least ONE joke in here. Also, anyone that spends $10k on an iPhone case deserves to get mugged (and maybe beaten up a little bit). Oh yes, I went there. $10,000, available online
3. Tom Binns for Lisa Hoffman rhodium earrings: Yes, these gems are lovely ear candy, but there's a surprise inside (I love surprises) in the form of "fragrance beads infused with fresh, optimistic French Clary Sage." Which means when that special someone leans in (ooh la la), he'll get a subtle whiff of amazing that he'll think is just your natural scent. Genius. $200, available online
4. Nixon Camden Chrono watch: Because every girl I know has the same Marc Jacobs or Michael Kors watch and I can't afford a Rolex or Tag (YET), this Nixon makes a bold, gold statement. Plus, Nixon is known for its gigantic, men's watches, so it's cool for chicks to wear them. $450, available online and at select retailers
5. Rebecca Minkoff M.A.C.: M.A.C. stands for Morning After Clutch, so I guess you're supposed to tote this along when you spend the night with a gentleman caller? I mean…whether it's raining men or I'm enduring a dry spell, I want this on my arm. $295, available online and at select retailers (like Bloomingdale's) (PS, did you see Rebecca Minkoff's magicalorious holiday video?)
6. Warby Parker Everett sunglasses: Because I'm getting blinder by the day, I need to bite the bullet and get some prescription sunnies. Warby Parker's frames are high-quality, stylish, SO affordable, and for every pair sold, they give a pair to someone in need, Toms-style. $95 without Rx/$150 with, available online (and they'll send frames to you to try before you buy!)
7. Jawbone Jambox: These speakerboxxes have incredible sound, sync with your smart phone (or any bluetooth-enabled device), and you can toss the little one in your bag and take it anywhere you might need to get the party started. AND you can customize your color scheme like the Witty + Pretty special you see above. $200 (on sale now for $150), available online
8. Funky Chunky Crowd Pleaser tin: Have you guys had Chip-Zel-Pop!? Yes, it's a mix of white and milk chocolate-covered potato chips, pretzels, and popcorn. Aaaand I just drooled on my keyboard. This giant tin has the CZP plus chocolate popcorn, chocolate pretzels, and peanut butter pretzels. I would literally eat all 3.13 lbs. of it in 24 hours, then go into a candy coma (wait, maybe I don't want it). $55, available online and at select retailers (small sizes and various mixes available)
9. Flywheel Sports custom cycling shoes: MUST HAVE these shoes. I don't need to remind you guys how psycho I am about Flywheel. I don't think they're available in Atlanta just yet, but if I have to make a call to our pal Ruth in NYC (remember her?), I will do just that. Now that's
desperation dedication. $125 ($12 extra for clips)
10. North Face Midori Moto jacket: I want a casual jacket I can throw on over my workout clothes, but still looks cool enough to rock with jeans and boots. This form-fitting (and flattering!) North Face nails it. $130, available online and where North Face is sold
And that wraps it up for the W+P Wish Lists! I hope you enjoyed and that you get everything you want this holiday season. Even if I didn't get any presents, I'd be completely happy just spending time with family and friends over booze and food.
(But like, I really do want that Jambox, Dad.)
HAPPY HOLIDAYS, everyone!
Join the conversation! 1 Comment
I own the lovely Minkoff MAC in black and its pretty badass. You can borrow it whenever. Just an issue of how we get it to you… hmmm..
Great Wish List!

Zombies Anonymous
Started in the late 1980's by Tommy Lee, Zombies Anonymous actually started off as a zombie zoo in Seattle. Critics insinuated that Tommy Lee was being "zombie-racist" and was lynched by a bunch of black people.
Second Incarnation of ZA[edit]
But what to do with the hordes of Undead still left in the zoo. Dr. Phil was called to the scene and immediately started a rehabilitation center for the Undead, and Zombies Anonymous was born. Funded by cyborg/zombie-slayer Stephen Hawking, ZA was set up for the living dead to curb their cravings for brains and human flesh.
Steps of ZA[edit]
ZA is comprised of 5 steps.
- Step 1 is realizing that you have a problem.
- Step 2 is to stop murdering innocent people and to focus your aggression on convicts or politicians.
- Step 3 is to find a healthy substitute to flesh or brains, like fruits and vegetables like James Blunt or Chuck Norris. Warning. If you attempt to eat Chuck Norris he will end your un-life. You will no longer be un-dead and just be regular dead.
- Step 4 is to be de-toxed of all human remains in your system.
- Step 5 is to be completely cured.
If these steps fail, the zombie is sent back to step 1.
Healthy Activities[edit]
Zombies at Zombies Anonymous can find many fun and exciting activities to do while incarcerated. This includes everything from vollyball to ping-pong.
The zombies also sometimes have sack races and send Christmas cards to the elderly. Sometimes they are allowed to watch television but only if it is a non-violent program like Dr. Phil or Martha Stewart. Since doctors have found that zombies do not feel pain many zombies have started to engage in "exterme sports"; such as Sky Diving without a parachute, fire wrestling, masturbating with razorblade gloves and playing catch with dynamite. The patients also enjoy screenings of I Walked with a Zombie.
One of the first tactics developed were the zombie collars. This collar would deliver a strong electric shock to any zombie devouring human flesh. The design of these collars was first used on dogs and Lindsay Lohan before it was deemed safe for undead use by the CDC. Films such as Dawn of the Dead are often shown to show what BAD ZOMBIES look like and behave like. This scares the zombie and can sometimes confuse them so bad that they eat themselves. That's right. Eat themselves. Hmm...
Dr. Phil[edit]
An interview with Dr. Phil himself about the creation of ZA has recently been released by TIME magazine.
TIME: Dr. Phil, how is the ZA project going?
Dr. Phil: Well, I first want to say that all zombies are winners if they try to be. Anyone can and should complete this program except for people of the Hebrew race.
T: You mean Anyone who's a zombie. Wait, did you just say Hebrew race? That is very offensive.
Dr. P: No it isn't. Anyone. Zombie or not. Adult or child except the Jews, even the robotic ones can do this. That is why it isnt offensive. It has been proven by science guys that Jews are just not capable of completing this program,
T: I am going to ignore the anti-semitic remarks because you are clearly brain damaged. I will try to go on ahead with this interview because I need to be paid so I can feed my family. Now why would you encourage children to be anywhere near these zombies?
Dr. P: These patients are completely harmless. Unlike the robot Jews these zombies haven't killed anyone.
T: Sigh.....I find that hard to believe. Not the jewish part. The other part. You know what.. Forget it. Just forget it. Actually I am very concerned about your health. You have many open wounds that appear to be infected. They actually look like bite marks. Do you want me to take you to the hospital?
Dr. P: Oh, those are from... uh... my wife. Yeah... She is into some kinky stuff. Like this one time we roleplayed that I was a toliet. And she brought over all of her girl friends, the roleplayed as the Alpha Beta Gamma sorority. Now the story was that the ABG girls went to Taco Bell for all you can eat for 10 dollars night. However the taco meat was rancid and to cover up the fact the meat was rotten the Taco Bell used super hot sauce. Man oh man. I am sure glad we laid down the tarps that night. I mean bless their little Alpha Beta Gamma hearts they sure did try to get it in the toliet, I mean me, but I could only have 2 girls pooping in me at a time. And it got everywhere! We were cleaning crusted dried fecal matter off the walls for weeks! Now what were we talking about?
T: Hmm...
(Taken from TIME MAGAZINE issue 838934938493 copyright by Happy Bubba Industries)
Return of Tommy Lee[edit]
Since Tommy Lee saw the potential money he could have made off of these zombies, he started an unnessecary legal battle with Dr. Phil to gain control of the rehab facility. In the end, Dr. Phil won, and Tommy Lee firebombed the west wing of the ZA center. This resulted in pissed-off flaming zombies, and Tommy Lee once again got his ass kicked. In an interview about this occurence, Tommy Lee reportedly said "Fuck my life". He then proceeded to run away from the fiery undead procession following him.

German Approach
Germans detach the professional from the personal. Business colleagues can disagree, even argue, about the substance of an issue without it having a negative affect on their working relationship.
Critical thinking, stating one's opinions in a straightforward manner, debating the strengths and weaknesses of a given point, are in Germany signs of professionalism and of respect for the other person.
The Germans are known for debating and arguing vigorously, then breaking for lunch or meeting for dinner and interacting with each other in a perfectly friendly manner.
American Approach
Americans link the professional with the personal. Statements made about a proposal, a concept, or work results are by definition judgements about that person's competence, ability, experience, skills.
To say that engineering work performed was poor, is to say that it was a poor engineer who performed it. And usually there are consequences in the American business context for those who do not perform.
Unless they are declared opponents or enemies, American colleagues seldom debate, argue or challenge each other in a direct, vigorous or threatening way. And if they do, you certainly will not find them voluntarily meeting for lunch or dinner.
German View
In some cases, Germans do indeed pick up on signals that their American colleagues can feel insulted. From their point of view, however, Americans are too sensitive to criticism, taking things too personally.
This comes as a surprise to the Germans, as the Americans have the reputation of being "cowboys": rough, tough, ready for a fight, for a healthy debate.
And because Germans define being professional as focusing on substance and "checking the personal at the door", overly careful and sensitive Americans can come across as tedious, requiring special attention, and in the end as unprofessional.
American View
Americans can, indeed, feel personally insulted by the statements German colleagues make. From their perspective the Germans go on the attack, saying things such as: "No, that is wrong" or "That makes no sense" or "You obviously did not do your homework" or "We used that method a decade ago. Get up to date."
In the U.S. business context, part of being professional is knowing how to voice your opinion in ways respectful of other people. Germans can actually scare Americans. Some Germans become known as unpredictable and explosive. Americans will avoid contact with them.
Advice to Germans
Continue to be analytical, straightforward and honest. And continue to address critical topics directly. But do all of this in a spirit and language which is softer and more dialogue-oriented. Americans also focus on substance. They also have vigorous debates. Their language, however, is more subtle, their attacks more nuanced.
The challenge for you is not only the logic in how Americans debate, it is also a question of language. For it is truly difficult to communicate nuance in a foreign language. Mimic American statements. Use their terms and phrases.
And, from time to time, remind the Americans that you are speaking in a foreign language. They will respect you and feel a bit of shame that they - in most cases - do not speak a foreign language.
Advice to Americans
Develop a thicker skin. Not every criticism of your work is criticism of you or of your ability. You find can argue intensely with Germans and it will actually strengthen your working relationship.
Vigorous debate, intensity, "going toe-to-toe" with each other, as long as you use solid arguments, are signs of ability, backbone and professionalism in Germany. Step up to the challenge, not back.
At the same time, when you notice that a German colleague, unintentionally, has come across too direct, come to his or her rescue. Rephrase their statements in softer, more diplomatic American speech. At the same time, ask your American colleagues to focus on substance, not form, and to not take it all so personally.

Oh I've been needing boy cards!! That seems to be the same story for most of us. LOL I ran out last month so I need to restock on my supplies again and this images fits perfectly in that category. And lucky me, I had some boyish paper to work with too and went for anything non-swirlish and non-pinkish. He he he
For this project I had the paper selected first then went and colored my image so I could match the colors better. The only thing I didn't know what what ribbon I was going to use so if I was to go back I would change Tobie's hair color to be a little darker. However, it still works so I chose to leave it. :D Besides, the receiver of this card probably won't even notice. LOL

The first beer that got me really excited about sour and wild brewing was Jolly Pumpkin's Oro de Calabaza. To be honest, I don't remember why I bought it: my local Binnys had several of their beers on the shelf for a few months, and one day I picked that one up. I know that the Brewing TV episode on sour beers made me pay more attention to them, so maybe it was related to that, although JP beers don't figure in it at all. Regardless, that first bottle was a revelation. I don't remember the particular taste so much as what I suppose I'd call the structure of the beer: the way the flavours developed along the palette after each sip, hitting a range of notes over a few seconds and drawing them together into a harmonious but complex whole. The best comparison I can think of (and the one that struck me at the time) is with a sip of good whisky: some initial wave of flavour, persisting and deepening over the mid-palate, then fading to something else at the back of the mouth. If you've ever tried bad (read:young) whisky, you'll have a better sense of what I mean: the young stuff also hits a series of notes, but it is blocky and jagged, one thing after another with no integration. That bottle of Oro was complex and integrated: a striking initial taste, a prolonged and complex middle note, and a mouth-watering sour finish.
That was enough to get my interested in Jolly Pumpkin, and sour beers in general. At the time I was still relatively new to home-brewing (I suppose I still am!), and I was a learning lot from listening to old shows on The Brewing Network. A quick search of their site threw up two episodes of Can You Brew It that featured Jolly Pumpkin beers. I listened to both back to back, and was struck by the thoughtfulness and generosity of the brewer, Ron Jeffries (I've since emailed for brewing advice, and his responses have only confirmed that impression).
I particularly recommend that Bam Biere episode for anyone looking for an easy recipe to try for their first sour beer; you can find further details on this HBT thread. One great thing about the episode, especially for a beginning brewer, is that Jeffries talks in detail about the thought behind his ingredient choices. When you're first starting out, you see a recipe like the one below and have no real idea what's going on. Why that blend of base malts? Why those proportions? What does that flaked barley add? What about the crystal malt? Jeffries explains the thinking behind all of this, as well as the process they use to make their sour beers. This is translated admirably to the home-brew level by Mike Mraz and the other hosts in the second half of the episode.
As far as I know, Jolly Pumpkin beers are distributed in most states, and the bugs and wild yeast available in fresh bottles will provide a pleasant sourness to most beers relatively quickly (especially compared to commercial blends like Wyeast Roeselare). What's more, since this beer has such a low starting gravity, the turn around is fairly quick for a sour beer. I drank my first bottles at about two and a half months after brew day, and they were tart and hoppy, the perfect beer for a hot Chicago summer day. At this point the beer is around 8 months old, and the hops have faded and the sourness increased. I'll do my best to describe it below.
A note on brewing the beer: I followed Jeffries' instructions, creating a fermentable wort by mashing low and adding dregs from a fresh bottle of Bam Biere after primary fermentation was complete. I've been happy with the sourness throughout: light at first and more assertive now. However if you like a bracingly sour or overtly funky beer, you might want to add the bugs and wild yeast along with your pitch of saccharomyces so that they have a stronger population earlier in the fermentation.

Caitlin Seida had every right to post a photo of herself on Facebook dressed in a Lara Croft costume and looking pretty damn fierce. Unfortunately, Caitlin learned the hard way that a terribly mean website, whose only purpose on Earth is to critique and make fun of the appearances of others, also had every right to snatch her photo from the site and plaster it onto theirs. It rapidly amassed some of the meanest comments she had ever read about herself.
Caitlin says most of the anonymous remarks were posted by other women, something that didn't shock her in the least, and ranged from the stupid and silly "Fridge Raider" to the unbelievably hurtful suggestion that she kill herself and "spare everyone's eyes."
Caitlin hadn't restricted her Facebook privacy settings to "friends only," which meant she didn't have a legal right to the photos she posted on the site and they could technically be used on other websites. This factor also made it near bloody impossible for her to try and get her picture removed from every site in which it appeared. Since the photo had gone viral and had been reposted on Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit, and other sites, Caitlin had to issue hundreds of copyright violations to various websites. But like a pandemic disease, the sharing of her photo had gotten so out of control by then that it was physically impossible for Caitlin to target every website on which it appeared.
I really feel for Caitlin. As a writer, I've read my share of horrifyingly mean comments posted anonymously and directed right at me. Some people have called me out by name and suggested I kill myself over an opinion I had that would neither affect them nor change the world. The difference is when you choose to put yourself out there, you have to take on a toughen up, buttercup attitude toward comments. But what purpose does it serve anyone to comment nastily on someone's physical appearance? How can anyone get so riled up over the way someone else looks?
Remember that there are ways to protect your photos on Facebook:
1. Go to Albums. Click on an album and then click on the gray globe that appears beneath it. A pull-down menu will offer the options Public, Friends, Only Me. Click on Only Me or Friends.
2. Don't forget: You can't make cover photos private so be careful about the picture you choose.
3. For individual photos that are not in an album, you'll have to go to each picture, click "edit," and adjust the setting so that it's not public.
How would you feel if your photos suddenly went viral?

Established on the beach area south of the Santa Monica Pier in 1933, this was where juggernauts of the bodybuilding scene such as Arnold Schwarzenegger and Lou Ferrigno came to flex their pecs. Today, you'll find plenty of serious regulars, a healthy crowd of amateurs and lots of gawking tourists. Visit at the weekend and marvel at the beach gymnasts and their ripped physiques, and feel free to join in; the vibe is generally friendly and you might just pick up a few good tips.

ATLANTA -- Falcons general manager Rich McKay said Sunday
it's too early to tell if the team will discipline coach Jim Mora
for his antics following the team's overtime loss at Tampa Bay.
"Let me get through the weekend," said McKay, who also is the
Falcons president. "Right now I just don't know."
The 27-24 defeat on Saturday eliminated Atlanta from playoff
contention. After the game, in his regularly scheduled postgame
chat with radio flagship analyst Dave Archer, Mora was asked to
explain why the Falcons punted from their 24 when facing
fourth-and-2 with 1:08 remaining in overtime.
Even though Michael Koenen's punt went 53 yards, Mark Jones'
28-yard return put the Buccaneers in position to win the game on
Matt Bryant's field goal five plays later.
According to several team and radio station employees, Mora
abruptly removed his headset after hearing Archer's question and
threw it to the ground.
Three team employees and two with the radio station, all of whom
requested anonymity because they said they feared alienating the
coach, said Mora was so angry that he also threw a microphone --
which almost hit Nicole Watson, a sideline reporter with the radio
station, in the head.
Watson had given Mora the microphone and headset so he could
conduct his usual postgame interview with Archer, who was in the
broadcast booth above the field.
Mora did not immediately return a call placed to his cell phone
Sunday afternoon.
The Falcons have lost five of seven since a Week 9 victory at
Miami left them 6-2 and tied for the NFC lead.
Atlanta, which advanced to the conference title game last season
and beat defending NFC champion Philadelphia in the Sept. 12 season
opener, blew a 24-17 lead against the Bucs when Carnell Williams
ran for a touchdown on fourth-and-1 at the Falcons 6 with 25
seconds left in regulation.

Drugs to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder can be incredibly controversial. There are concerns that they're over-prescribed, and there can be significant potential for abuse by people, particularly college age students, who don't have a prescription.
However, it's important to remember how difficult it is to live, learn, and succeed with the disorder, also known as ADHD, especially when it goes untreated.
A new working paper from the National Bureau of Economic Research by Jason Fletcher at Yale titled "The Effects Of Childhood ADHD On Adult Labor Market Outcomes" takes a detailed look at how the condition affects a person's long run success, and provides "the first evidence of links between childhood ADHD symptoms and adult labor market outcomes."
From the abstract:
This paper uses a longitudinal national sample, including sibling pairs, to show important labor market outcome consequences of ADHD. The employment reduction is between 10-14 percentage points, the earnings reduction is approximately 33%, and the increase in social assistance is 15 points, which are larger than many estimates of the black-white earnings gap and the gender earnings gap. A small share of the link is explained by education attainments and co-morbid health conditions and behaviors. The results also show important differences in labor market consequences by family background and age of onset. These findings, along with similar research showing that ADHD is linked with poor education outcomes and adult crime, suggest that treating childhood ADHD can substantially increase the acquisition of human capital.
According to the paper, estimates indicate that somewhere between 2 and 10 percent of school age children have the condition, not all of whom are diagnosed or being treated. The employment reduction is primarily concentrated in disadvantaged families, who might have more difficulty getting the condition diagnosed or treated at an early age.
The sample used in the study was from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, which followed a group of students from grades 7-12 starting in 1994 and 1995, then interviewed them one year later, six years later, and 13 years later.
At the final wave of questioning, the researchers asked: "Has a doctor, or nurse, or other health care provider ever told you that you have or had attention problems or ADD or ADHD" then "How old were you when the doctor, nurse, or other health practitioner first told you." This is the data Fletcher analyzed with their employment data.
The findings of this study are particularly robust because it controls for health and education factors. It also looks at differences between sibling pairs that do and don't have the condition, and found that there was still a 12-14 percentage point reduction in employment for the sibling that had been diagnosed with ADHD.
Since the sample started in the 90s, there were probably significantly lower rates of treatment than we have today, which may partially explain the size of the effect. Still, the paper makes a strong case that early diagnosis and treatment can significantly improve what students get out of their education, and help with future job prospects.

Delaplane in Fauquier County, Virginia — The American South (Mid-Atlantic)
Emmanuel Episcopal Church
Piedmont Parish
Ground was broken in September, 1858, and Emmanuel Church consecrated on July 23, 1859, by William Meade, Bishop of Virginia.
During the Civil War both Confederate and Union troops used Emmanuel as a shelter and a hospital. The names of some of General McClellan's federal soldiers were inscribed on the walls of the wood room along with other names and the notation "9th Ill. Cavalry."
At the end of the war the Rev. William F.Gardner wrote, "Piedmont Parish has been without a minister for a long time. Since 1862, divine service was not held more than two or three times, until I took charge of these Churches, informally, on the 17th day of April, 1865, it being Easter Monday."
Since that

Bank Balance Confessions: The 24-Year-Old Who Bought A House
Here at The Cusp, we believe that talking about money empowers us to make more informed choices – and that tracking your spending can be revelatory. Here's the latest instalment in our series exploring the income and expenditure of young Australians. Want to get better with money? We can help you there, too.
I'm a 24-year-old communications professional, first-home owner and self-professed chronic saver. I've been a saver for as long as I can remember, starting with pocket money for household chores.
I got my first casual job at 15 and, luckily, haven't been out of work since. I knew I had chosen to enter a competitive industry with some pretty meagre salaries on offer so during my university years I worked three part-time jobs in communications to try and get ahead of the pack. And, it worked. Before my graduation I had a permanent, full time job with a salary of $69,000. Juggling full time study and up to 38 hours of work a week paid off, thank goodness!
During these "saving years", at least 50 per cent of every pay immediately went into my savings account via scheduled transfers. I paid bills via direct debit and whatever was left was for life. I still use this budgeting system – I figure if the money gets transferred before I see it then I won't be tempted to spend it.
Why was I so obsessed with saving? Because, since the age of 16, I've wanted to buy a house complete with a backyard and a dog.
How to buy a house
In 2014 I came to the conclusion that this was never going to happen in Sydney – I couldn't save at the same rate that the Sydney property market was skyrocketing. So when the opportunity to move to Bathurst, a major regional centre in NSW, came up I took it.
My commute went from three hours a day at a cost of $14, to 14 minutes a day at a cost of $3.80. I was paying $75 a week board (a sweet deal, I know) and was pleasantly surprised to find that groceries were cheaper, drinks at the bar were cheaper, even "Taco Tuesday" was cheaper in Bathurst.
The result? I continued to save money, bought a block of land, built a medium size house and adopted a border collie. I did this for the same price as a one-bedroom apartment in Chippendale that's the size of my living area.
At the moment I have $17,000 in savings and a crapload ($370,000) in debt thanks to my home loan but I feel better if I think about it as an investment in bricks and mortar.
So, what does the weekly budget of a 24-year-old professional, first homeowner in a regional area look like?
I get paid fortnightly and today is payday! $1976.36 appeared in my account overnight but I don't see most of it thanks to the magic of direct debits and scheduled transfers:
- $870 goes into my homeloan
- $70 gets taken out for my health insurance
- $275.90 pays my quarterly electricity bill (I make sure I pay early to get a discount)
- $300 is transferred over to my savings account. The amount going into savings would be higher if my electricity bill wasn't due.
So $1215.90 in total goes to bills and $300 to savings which, together with the cash in my wallet, leaves me $475 disposable income, which I start spending straight away.
- After work I buy $63 worth of groceries which should get me through the week.
- Winter always arrives early in Bathurst and I'm overdue for a new pair of trackies. They set me back $20 but are oh-so-fluffy.
- I broke my phone case during the week and after a quick look around the shops I decide it will be cheaper to buy a new one online. I order one on eBay for $7.29.
= $1,306.19
- It's Friday and I'm running a 9am training session so coffee is required! I pay $4.00 for a regular soy latte.
= $4.00
- I catch up with a friend for afternoon tea and a movie. A pot of green tea sets me back $4.30 and my movie ticket is $16.50.
- My boyfriend and I go to the pub for dinner with friends. We take it in turns paying for meals when we eat together and tonight it's my turn. Two mains cost me $42.00.
= $62.80
- I go to Bunnings to look for some plants for my garden. Instead of plants I walk out with a $0.95 bucket, $7.85 broom and $6 duster… #ImpulseBuy (who could walk past a $0.95 bucket though?)
= $14.80
- It's an uneventful day at work and a quiet night in.
= $0
- For $35.48 I stock up on enough fresh fruit and veg, and hot cross buns to get me through a long weekend and to the next pay day.
- I've got family coming to stay for the Easter long weekend and need to buy a quilt for the spare bedroom so they don't freeze. I find one in town for $39.00
= $74.48
- It's another normal day at work and a quiet night in with leftovers.
= $0
I've now got $228.63 left to get me through another week before it's payday again. Looking back on my expenses, I'm pretty glad I'm not a regular coffee drinker and enjoy cooking at home – eating out is expensive no matter where you live.
The cost of living in a regional area makes a huge difference to my budget and means I can live the dream of owning my own home and still put money away for the fun stuff in life like travel – the grass really is greener on the other side!

5 Easy Ways to Make Money With a Side Hustle While Your Kids Nap
Collaborative post.
When the kids are really young, many of us dream of long naps and a chance to catch up on our own sleep. The sleepless nights can mean that when they are asleep, we've got very little energy or will to do anything. But, then as they start to get older things change a little. Nights get easier, and naps less frequent but for most children, they still come up until the age of three or four. Then, we can feel lost. It seems like the perfect time to catch up with housework but after a morning running around after a toddler that's the last thing that you feel like doing. You're not tired enough to nap, but you don't want to spend this precious quiet time cleaning the house. So, why not use it for making money while the kids nap?
Sure, that hour or two isn't going to be enough to work a shift. But, it can give you the perfect bit of quiet time to sit down with your computer and earn some extra cash. Whether it's just a little bit of pocket money or some cash for a treat, or extra to help get a debt paid off faster, it's more than you'd have made doing nothing!
So whether you call them part time side jobs, side hustle jobs, or side income from home, here are 5 easy ways to get started and make money during naptime.
Get on the Stock Market
Most of us that have never traded in stocks and shares are terrified of it. But, investing small amounts of money (certainly no more than you can afford to lose or do without) can give you a fantastic chance to help it to grow. Tools like a stock ratings checker make it easier for even the most clueless person to make the right investments and moves, and you only need a little bit of time each day to check the markets.
Take Some Surveys
There are plenty of online survey sites out there that will pay you to complete a set of questions. Often about products you buy or your experiences. They don't pay huge amounts, but if you sign up for enough sites, there will always be opportunities. And, you can do it while watching TV or when the kids are asleep.
Browse the Internet
Website and app developers are always on the lookout for testers. They need to know that their products work well before launch. Some of these will pay you for testing them out and reporting your findings back.
Sell Stock Photos
There are countless stock photo sites out there, always on the lookout for quality photos to add to their ranks. If you've got a good DSLR and an interest in photography, start taking your camera out on walks with the kids or take photos of things around your house. Perhaps meals and toys. Or even random stuff while you're doing activities in different seasons like Bucket List activities. Then, while the kids are sleeping, sort through your photos, do any necessary editing, and list them for sale online.
Start a Blog
Blogging might not make money during naptime in the short term, but once you are established, it can make a regular income. Mummy blogs are incredibly popular as women look for advice and shared experiences online, they're keen to know that they are not alone.

I love those old fashioned beaded purses. You make them by threading a zillion beads on a thread and then you work the actual purse in knitting or crochet.
For a very long time I had wanted to make a 12 th scale version. But even the smallest seed beads made the purse look really big. More like a shopping bag than a dainty purse for a lady.
The blue purse on the right was knitted in seed beads I had in my collection.
For the black purse I used beads that were half as big. I found them at www.minikitz.com. Debbie has an interesting collection of beads and if you are looking for the really small ones , get in touch with her. She will know what you need and she will be able to tell you all about size and colors.
The black purse shown with a 12 th scale hand mirror for size.
Knitting with beads can be a bit confusing especially if you want to have a pattern in the beading. You have to thread all the beads in the pattern in reverse order twice. It is a challenge I have not tackled yet partly because I have not found a suitable pattern.
But if you use the technique I used for these bags, you get a pretty result without too much fiddly stuff. The beads are added between the knitted stitches and by adding more beads in every row you create the shape of the purse.
First your have to thread all your beads. You will need a lot of beads because there will be beads both on the inside and the outsie of your purse. Normally you would use thread in the same color as your beads but for the photos I used a contrasting color.
The idea is : knit one stitch, move a bead up to the knitted stitch and knit the nex one.
After two rows the beads will be on both sides of your knitting.
If you keep kniting like this you can make a strip of knitting that you can easily fold in three and turn into a simple clutch purse.
To shape the knitting like I did you will have to add more beads between the knittied stitches to make the finished piece wider and less beads to make it smaller again.
This is just to give you some idea of how to knit with beads . I will try to add the pattern for the purse soon.

Many marketing professionals will be able to utilize the tips in this article so they can increase their level of knowledge in social media marketing.

Fairytale Ceramics30. Jun2013
With a unique style that comprise both delicacy and optimism, Alexandra Constantinescu creates ceramic pieces that makes you awe in front of them.
Their whiteness and softness-like makes them look almost etheric. The novel shapes of handles and the placement of these in the most unexpected parts of the vases gives personality to each object thus making it standing out of the crowd.
The vase decorations range from stripes draw on the surface to an array of small 3D dots littered all over the vase. Sometimes the handles are enough to make it as a single and striking decoration for the white vase they are applied.
Last but not least, the use of beautiful pastel colors green and blue (or mid-range between the two) on white background as accents complete the object as a whole.
Here is what Alexandra says about her creations: "I like to create a contrast between the form of the objects and their details. The simplicity,the rigorous construction of the volume contrasts with the later added shaped details."
Alexandra Constantinescu is a graduate of the the Cluj-Napoca University Of Art and Design, Sculpture Department in 2004. She is working now in her own studio in the city of Cluj Napoca, Romania. Alexandra can be found on her blog and on Facebook

To the Editors: Nonconvulsive generalized status epilepticus (NCGSE) is characterized by slowness in behavior and mentation, confusion, and sometimes stupor, lasting for more than an hour and accompanied by generalized repetitive continuous or nearly continuous epileptiform activity on the electroencephalogram (EEG). NCGSE has been predominantly reported as an epileptic syndrome beginning in older adults and in children with petit mal epilepsy. We report a patient with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome who had NCGSE.

The pictures of devastation from the wrath of Hurricane Sandy fill website after website.
Ground zero in New York transformed into a rushing waterfall overnight.
Many highways, once filled with bumper-to-bumper traffic, are now filled with water.
Tops of cars peek from water that now fills the roads on which they were parked.
Piers lay in rubble.
The Eastern coast of America faces a long and difficult journey and will lean on the rest of the world for assistance, strength, and prayers.
But as I was clicking through photos this morning,
these two struck me in a significant way after reading of one of Jesus' last conversations with the disciples before the intense moments of his betrayal were to begin.
In the midst of all the preparations for Hurricane Sandy, some people knew what they really needed in order to survive a disaster in life......
bread and water.
Even in the town where I live, the bread aisle seems to empty first when a snowstorm is predicted.
And water goes almost as quickly.
People seem to have a sense of what they will miss most if food runs short.
And in a spiritual sense, things aren't much different.
Jesus explains it this way to his disciples in John 6,
So they asked him, "What miraculous sign then will you give that we may see it and believe you?
What will you do? Our forefathers ate the manna in the desert; as it is written: 'He gave them bread from heaven to eat.'"
Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, it is not Moses who has given you the bread from heaven,
but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.
For the bread of God is he who comes down from heaven and gives life to the world."
"Sir," they said, "from now on give us this bread."
Then Jesus declared, "I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.
In John 7, Jesus sits by a well waiting for his disciples, and as He is waiting a Samaritan woman comes to the well to fill her jars.
He takes this opportunity to teach another lesson.
When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, "Will you give me a drink?" (His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)
The Samaritan woman said to him, "You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?" (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.)
Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water."
Sir," the woman said, "you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his flocks and herds?"
Jesus answered, "Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life."
This morning if you feel as if you have reached the spiritual bread or water aisle and found it coming up short,
take a minute to tell God how you feel.
Ask Him to send an extra-special measure of Jesus into your life today.
God longs to restock, restore, refresh, and reenergize our souls...........
Even in the midst of hurricane-destroyed lives, God is there.
This world and all of its temporary pleasures will one day be a foggy memory.
The only thing we will need for eternity is the bread and water Jesus offers through a relationship with Him.
Praying you turn to Him and satisfy a longing deep in your soul.
He's there.
He's waiting.
He's enough.

|Whenever anybody says things can't get any worse, they usually do. No matter how bad something is, there is always a good chance it will get worse. Experience may not be my best teacher, but sometimes it's the only teacher on duty.
Whenever anybody says things can't get any worse, they usually do. No matter how bad something is, there is always a good chance it will get worse. Experience may not be my best teacher, but sometimes it's the only teacher on duty. This is where I have a wee bit of a conflict with the Gracious Mistress of the Parsonage. She is always looking on the bright side of things. Sometimes her cheery disposition is a little more than I can handle. No matter how bad the situation may be, she can always find something good in it. "There's a little bit of good in everything, you just have to look for it." For me, experience has taught that too often the look isn't worth the find. A recent event brought to light our differences of outlook in life. I have two sets of keys to my pickup and last week I lost one set. I was all a dither and did not know what I was going to do. Then my wife said, "At least you didn't lose your pickup." It was not so much what she said, as how she said it. I knew exactly what she meant. Several weeks ago, I borrowed her car to go to Wal-Mart and get some things for a project I was working on. At the time, I had my project on my mind and was not thinking too clearly about what I was doing. The fact that I got to the store comes very near to a miracle in and of itself. I got the things I needed and came out to get into my pickup and get back to my office to complete my project. Much to my chagrin, I could not find my pickup. I walked up and down the parking lot looking, looking but to no avail. My pickup was nowhere to be found. Several pickups looked like mine, but my keys would not open any of them. Fortunately, I had my cell phone on my person. Normally, I do not carry my cell phone with me wherever I go. Frankly, I do not want to be that easy to get a hold of unless it is a real emergency. And by emergency, I mean where my life is in imminent danger. I stalled as long as I could, reluctant to call my wife but finally, out of sheer desperation, I called her. Sometimes a husband has to do what a husband has to do and I had to call my wife. This is a last resort, at least for Yours Truly. You can stand in the middle of a parking lot looking lost for so long before someone calls the authorities. I knew I had to take quick action. I called my wife. "I lost my truck. I looked all over the parking lot and I can't find my truck. I don't know what to do." There was a long, awkward pause on the other end of the phone. Finally, her voice came back and said, "I'm looking at your pickup in our driveway. Where in the world are you?" It then dawned on me. I did not lose my pickup but rather drove my wife's car. This is what I mean by something going from bad to worse. For the rest of my life my gracious and loving wife will find creative ways of reminding me that I really did not lose my truck. My wife can see a silver lining in every cloud. I see a cloud in every silver lining. When it's raining, my wife always looks for the rainbow. I usually look for an umbrella. To her, a glass is half-full, while to me it is half-empty. On those rare occasions when we go shopping together, I invariably lose a quarter and she will find a dollar bill. All of this positive thinking is positively discouraging and a person can only take so much positive goobly-gook. Click here to read the rest of this story (28 more lines)

The web is sickness new means of creating wealth every single day. From monetizing blogs to online tutoring, you can make sets from a few dollars to large sums of money frequently. The somewhat recent phenomenon on the internet is UGC or User Generated Content. To put it briefly this is content supplied by the consumer and yes it may be in audio or video formats. Sites like YouTube and Google video have supplies a platform to thousands of people across the globe who are aspiring actors, musicians, directors, chefs as well as magicians to shoot their own videos and post it on the internet. The problem has arrived at a place where one can can even make cash with YouTube videos.
There are many videos watched every day worldwide and that means you can begin to play we now have and begin making money with your Youtube videos. You can create extra money at home by creating a website on the account and registering with YouTube videos. Based on the videos, 1000s of visitors will login to your watch the videos as well as the advertisements given by Google. Within your videos, you can add short descriptions in the video and the links.
Exactly how do you make real money videos? Let's begin with a fairly easy illustration of how a business will make money with YouTube videos. Let's say the customers are mixed up in the manufacturing of ready-to-eat packaged food and is also owned by a former chef. There exists a type of online marketing called viral marketing that is fundamentally the passing of an message/advertising to a couple of those who will then give it to a lot of people they understand resulting in many people receiving and viewing the advertisement.
It is possible to refer to it as the internet's word-of-mouth kind of promotion. Now returning to the example, the chef in order to popularize his products can start shooting cooking videos of assorted recipes and posting them online. After that you can mail those who will be interested in this as soon as a desire for the video is generated, the cook is popular right away. In case a video gets greater than a 1000 hits (or views) it automatically beats about 90% of all the videos on-line. The buzz may ultimately lead to a boost in the sales in the product.
These is really a typical example of a business today making use of the net platform wanting to boost its sales and earn cash with YouTube videos as a marketing device. What about an individual looking to perform same without really developing a business? Individuals will must continue to work hard initially to access a point to can certainly make money with YouTube videos. The theory is to regularly post good videos (that could be informative or entertaining or both) on topics that you simply are a professional in. Keep making videos and uploading them regularly onto YouTube.
Be sure to let your friends be familiar with your YouTube page. Can remember the more number of people viewing your videos; the greater it's for you personally. Using a number of tools available online it is possible to track how well your page does regarding users, views and traffic for the page. Once it's reached a suitable level, connect with the YouTube Partnership Program. After verifying the application, you in turn become somebody and begin earning revenue from the advertising money which will come in to these sites. So what are you awaiting? Create your own video, promote them and make money-using YouTube.

"Constitutional carry" is the name that gun rights activists have given to bills that legalize both concealed and openly carried handguns in public.
The current state legislative sessions across the country have seen a surge of states supporting "constitutional carry" and gun rights advocates have had tremendous success in recent decades making it easier to obtain a concealed-carry permit. In most states, the process is fairly straightforward. Applicants need to pass a background check. Some states also ask that applicants take a gun safety class, and some even check for evidence of mental illness.
Presently residents of Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Vermont, and Wyoming don't require a permit at all for concealed carry in public. Vermont has never had a requirement; Alaska went permit-free in 2003; Arizona in 2010; Wyoming in 2011 (limited to residents); and Arkansas in 2013. Other states such as Idaho, Montana, New Hampshire, New Mexico and Oklahoma recognize a limited form of constitutional carry.
Last year Republicans took control of nearly a dozen state chambers, allowing permit-less concealed-carry efforts to re-surge in places like New Hampshire, West Virginia, Texas, Kansas, Colorado, Idaho and Maine. A large amount of the American public has recently been tilting toward gun rights, although you hear different in the mainstream media. While I firmly believe that our right to bear arms should not require a government issued permission slip, an overwhelming amount of voters support obtaining a special permit from law enforcement agencies to carry concealed firearms. So we must all band together in support of our Constitutional rights. I highly recommend you support the NRA and become a member if you're not already.
We would love to hear your thoughts about "Constitutional Carry" in the comments below.

The shocking truth is soon you may not need a mobile device such as a smartphone or a computer to connect to the internet. The truth is the future holds connectivity in a manner in which we have never seen but only dreamed of. A team of researchers have developed a way to connect everyday items to the internet. When I say everyday items, I am referring to things such as a simple piece of paper.
That's right soon utilizing a standard piece of notebook paper and RFID tags you will be able to connect to the internet and surf the web. The team of computer science researchers and engineering doctoral students at the University of Washington along with researchers from Disney Research and Carnegie Mellon have created a way to attach the small radio frequency tags onto paper and allow them to communicate through sensors in real time.
Special algorithms programmed into these RF tags will allow for simple movements of the hand to register and produce a digital response. The shocking truth is all the great technologies that you have seen in movies such as Star Wars Star Trek and Avatar over the years are starting to become a reality.
