Having the Time of Your Life in Business: 6 Tips from the Film We Can't Forget
Over the weekend, I happened to catch one of my favorite movies, "Dirty Dancing," which is all the more poignant in light of the still fairly recent death of actor Patrick Swayze. Although I've seen the movie many times, I was struck in this most recent viewing by the intensity with which Johnny teaches Baby the infamous dance routine that she performs to replace Penny. In a heated few days (I read up on this - the film was shot in Virginia under such high heat that several cast members apparently passed out), he teaches baby about balance, how to do lifts, feel from the heart, take flying leaps, and how not to look down. She struggles, but in the end accomplishes the moves well enough to pull off the performance, and do even better in the grand finale "Time of My Life," sequence that has become a hallmark of the film.
So maybe you see where I'm going with this. I got to thinking about how not only that sequence, but so much of this movie surprisingly is a great metaphor for life and business. Here's my breakdown:
1. Don't freak out if you have to learn fast.
In the film, Baby only has a few days to get her routine together. While at times frantic, she maintains her composure pretty well, and actually enjoys herself. So if you have something suddenly fall into your lap that you have to master pretty quickly, concentrate, take a deep breath, practice over and over again, and don't beat yourself up if you're not perfect. The main thing is to get through it and try. Others can tell when you're genuine and make the effort. It counts for a lot. If you make a mistake, learn from it, and fix it for the next time.
2. Don't let anyone put you in a corner, and while you're at it, dazzle the audience:
OK, it's a corny line, but it works. There's no greater moment then when Johnny issues that famous line, "no one puts Baby in a corner," and then whisks her onto the stage, which she certainly seems to own once she's up there. So, take the spotlight if you feel it's yours, and don't let anyone take it away from you. That means: make that speech, presentation, or pitch. Move if you have to, stay up all night if you have to, make 50 phone calls or send 500 e-mails if that's what you need to find your place in the sun. After all, if you don't claim your space, someone else will take it. And while you're at it, you might as well be dazzling.
3. Realize that things are often not what they seem:
Much of the plot of the movie and its twists and turns (no pun intended) has to do with false perceptions. Baby's father (Jerry Orbach) thinks mistakenly that Johnny has gotten Penny pregnant, when in fact it was Robbie. Johnny is mistaken for a thief, until Baby clears up that it could not have been him, as they were together all night. Johnny thinks of Baby as fearless, when in fact she admits, "I'm afraid of everything." Baby's father at one point tells her, "you're not who I thought you were."
In business and in life, we need to be super aware of everything. Do your peers and associates meet deadlines, be where they say they are going to be, produce what they are accountable for? Do you? Beware of agendas, and be ready to straighten out misconceptions before they get out of hand.
4. Stand up for what you believe in, and believe in change:
One of the themes of the film is standing up for your beliefs. Johnny is so impressed and moved that Baby admitted to their relationship to everyone, that he returns to Kellerman's for the final dance of the season, newly invigorated. Baby sees herself as a bridge between cultures and people, and wants to be a part of both the working class world of the Kellerman's staff, as well as someone who uses her economic advantage to do what she considers the right thing. We end up routing for her because she seems classy even in her flawed moments, such as failing to do the infamous "lift" in the first dance show, and running to get her father in emergencies.
The lessons in this movie ring true - evil gets punished, and change is inevitable. The terrible Robbie finally gets exposed for being rotten, and the thieving couple get put in prison, and those who resist change and the new way of covering the dance floor, will surely "sink like a stone." Watch the last scene of the movie --there isn't a single person who isn't dancing "the new way."
So if you're not sure what you believe in, do some soul searching, and start speaking out. The right people will follow.
5. Keep your sense of humor:
The movie has more then its share of tongue-in-cheek moments. There are great scenes when Baby and Johnny are mimicking the voices on the soundtrack and are playful with each other. And who can forget Lisa, Baby's sister, rehearsing her goofy "Hoola Hana" song for the big end of season guest show.
When times get tough, let loose a little and try to laugh...things will seem better in the morning.
6. The actors' lives beyond the film - you're only as good as now:
Paradoxically, the huge popularity of the film (it's been deemed one of the most watched movies ever), had a somewhat dooming effect on the actor' lives, and seemed to typecast them for years later. While Swayze went on to gain popularity with "Ghost" and other films, Grey changed the way she looked and became so unrecognizable, her roles seemed few and far between. Many other characters retired early, or disappeared completely.
This is itself is the lesson of carpe diem. Place the greatest importance on what you are doing now, because tomorrow, or the next day, you may show up at Kellerman's only to find the place has shut down.
And now, for those of us like me who can't resist, here's a clip from the infamous final scene, which by the way, has a whopping 194,676 views. Enjoy!

Sephora X Nail Polish
Got my hands on the new SEPHORA X nail polish, and so far I think they truly are as eXceptional as advertised. With the constantly growing nail art trend comes the pop up of so many new polish brands, so what makes this line stand out? Apparently, Sephora has scoured the globe for the most state-of-the-art formulas combined with the newest technologies to create the "one coat that changes everything."
Check below for the Sephora X line of polishes
According to a few of the sales girls, my local Sephora is one of the few stores to have an actual display as of now since the brand is still doing a test run of how well the polishes do.
The two polishes I purchased were Chaotic from The Illusionists and Explosive from The Sparklers, both of which are already sold out online.
Chaotic I love because it adds a splatter effect to any simple nail color you have. As seen here over Orly Dazzle.
Explosive is on my accent finger also over Orly Dazzle. The color of the sparklers actually comes out pretty translucent unless you use several coats, so I would suggest using them over a base color.
I am seriously loving both polishes on my nails right now, and will definitely go back to try the other polish formulas and colors. The only gripe I have is that the square brush handle doesn't line up with the bottle when you close it. It seems like Sephora attempted to mimic the Chanel bottle design but didn't spend the extra money to make a separate circular cap. I'm also predicting that splatter top coats in various colors will be the next big thing since the crackle/shatter polishes from the past years. Have any of you tried SEPHORA X yet? If so, what do you think?
If you haven't, hurry over to your nearest Sephora store or sephora.com to check them out because many are already sold out online!
Happy Thanksgiving Shopping Spree
Sorry it's been awhile since my last post, but like many of you I was busy celebrating the Thanksgiving season with family, friends, and of course food. Hope everyone also had a Happy and Hearty Thanksgiving holiday and was able to squeeze in a little (or a lot) of shopping at the same time.
As usual I didn't take advantage of the major Black Friday sales to start my Christmas gift shopping and instead snagged some stuff for myself. Whoops! Well here are some of the purchases I was super excited about.
I was fortunately able to attend the first ever Phillip Lim sample sale in Los Angeles two weeks ago and left with some amazing deals!
This dress was originally $900, but I got it for $250 at the sale. The bright blue color is such a stand out, and the simple cut makes it a timeless classic. It's the only one I saw, and it was my size so I couldn't pass it up.
This silk dress was a true sample and the epitome of why I love sample sales. There was no size or tag on the label and no others like it on the racks. I knew I had to get it when other girls at the sale we eyeing me while trying it on and waiting to see if I put it down. The fit is perfect and only cost $100!
Lastly, I was able to score these pants for $75 a piece!
Each of the pants originally retailed around $475 each, so I definitely got a bargain. All in all I think I majorly scored at the sale. Were any of you able to make it out and get any good deals too? Let me know what you got, and hopefully Phillip has another sample sale next year!
Other recent purchases I made were in the beauty department. I've stated repeatedly how much makeup I already own, but as many of you know you really can never have too much!
I was in Las Vegas when I realized to my horror that I had forgotten to pack my Touche Éclat, which is pretty much a daily necessity for me. I immediately headed to the nearest Sephora and discovered this YSL Holiday Set. It's such a great deal at $65 because it includes a full size Touche Eclat No. 2 and full size Golden Gloss in Golden Peony. Those two items alone are $40 and $30, but then you also get a travel size mascara, almost full sized waterproof black eyeliner, and a makeup bag that could even double as a clutch!
This holiday set is pretty much a no brainer. Touche Eclat No. 2 is YSL's most universally flattering color, and you can never have too many of them laying around. Of course it's limited and exclusive to Sephora. Get yours here now!
Lastly, as mentioned in a previous post, I've pretty much been obsessed with the Nars X Andy Warhol makeup collaboration.
This eye palette is just so unique because of the color combination and especially because it's made of Andy's face! I almost don't want to use it for fear of messing up the picture. Plus, the quote etched into the mirror, "I never met a person I couldn't call a beauty" automatically forces you to smile as you apply your eye shadow. Can still be purchased here.
Thanks for tuning in to the longest post I've written yet! Hope you all were able to get some good stuff during the sales as well. Let me know what you got!
Caviar Dreams Fulfilled
Finally had a chance to play around with my Ciate Mini Mani Month caviar nail polish set which I mentioned in an earlier post. With all the different colors, glitters, and caviar beads I must say this set is truly amazing and the creativity and color combinations are endless. The quality of the lacquer goes on smoothly and lasted almost a week, which is pretty good for me since I wash my hands about a thousand times a day at work.
On to the looks:
Inspiration for this design from Work/Play/Polish
Hope you like the looks!
I have seen the Mini Mani Month calendar still available at some Sephora stores and online, so I suggest you run out and get one while you still can. Also, even if you have some similar colors to the ones in the set, the cute little bottles are great for bringing on trips or for quick touch ups.
nail wishes and caviar dreams
popped into sephora this weekend to pick up some beauty necessities and accidentally found this new limited edition ciate caviar mini mani month nail set exclusive to sephora. wasn't really in my budget, but honestly who could resist this packaging? and i was even more excited to find out what's inside:
ciate is a fairly new u.k. nail fashion brand which prides themselves on being innovative and fashion forward. they are most known for their caviar manicure which released in the u.s. this past april and sold out in hours.
better run out and pick up this limited set before it sells out too!

More than a thousand incompetent doctors will be rooted out by new regular appraisals, health secretary Jeremy Hunt said today.
Mr Hunt said that a survey 300 health bodies had identified 0.7 per cent of doctors – about 1,000 out of 175,000 practioners – about whom there were "serious concerns".
Mr Hunt said that a new appraisal process would gradually mean that under-performing doctors were gradually weeded out of the National Health Service.
The Health secretary said: "Every doctor in the country, and that ncludes foreign doctors who come to practise in the UK, will have to undergo an annual appraisal.
"Those appraisals will be reviewed every five years and then the General Medical Council will decide whether there are any concerns.
"it is designed to pick up problems before they happen and will give doctors a chance to bring their skills up to speed.
"But if they are not able to do that the end of the road will be that they will be prevented from practising."
Mr Hunt said it was vital that the new system was not a "box ticking" and was "meaningful" way of vetting doctors and their performance.
However Niall Dickson, the chief executive of the General Medica Council, said the new system was not a "magic bullet" which could necessarily stop mass murderers like Dr Harold Shipman.
He said: "Revalidation is not a panacea, it is not a magic bullet to guarantee that care is safe or that every doctor is perfect, it will take time to settle in, we will need to evaluate and improve the model."
But he described the changes as "an historic moment, it is the biggest change in medical regulation for more than 150 years.
"The decision to press ahead with revalidation after many years of preparation and planning means that we'll be able to have a comprehensive system of regular checks for all doctors registered in the UK.
"Every NHS doctor is already supposed to have an annual appraisal but until revalidation appeared on the horizon many organisations were simply not achieving this. Now both the NHS and private healthcare organisations have begun to get their act together."
Doctors will undergo annual assessments from next year to ensure they are up to the job, but patients will never find out if concerns were raised.
The system, called revalidation, will involve an annual 'beefed-up' appraisal with a senior colleague going over complaints, compliments, clinical data, complications and mistakes as well as any management and research work they have undertaken.
Every five years this will have to include feedback from at least 35 patients and colleagues before the doctor can be recommended to the General Medical Council to continue to practice.
The aim is to detect low level poor practice that would not currently warrant a referral to the GMC so action can be taken early to rectify the situation with extra training or supervision.
It should also allow doctors to ensure they stay up to date with their skills and knowledge.
But It will not involve formal exams or tests.

A complex problem without borders
The spread of child sexual abuse material is a complex problem without borders. Since everything is connected, technology is an increasingly important part of the solution. Companies, organisations and Internet Service Providers are in a unique position to help. In fact, companies are one of few channels other than law enforcement that can help locate individuals who have a sexual interest in children.
What is Child Sexual Abuse Material and how is it spread?
What is child sexual abuse material?
Child pornography is not the correct term to use. This has nothing to do with porn. Each image or video is documented sexual abuse of a child and depicts the worst moment of that child's life. Therefore the correct term is child sexual abuse material or child sexual exploitation material.
Each image or video is documented sexual abuse of a child and depicts the worst moment of that child's life. When the material spreads across the world the offense is repeated again and again. 80% of the material display children below the age of 10 years.
The production and circulation of child sexual abuse material is a problem that exists in all social classes, family structures, environments and workplaces. According to the UN, 750,000 people are looking at child sexual abuse material on the Internet at any given moment.
It is not a harmless act to look at child sexual abuse material. It is not something that you do, unless you have a sexual interest in children. There is a strong link between watching this material and sexually abusing children.
The first step is to protect children from being abused and that's why finding the material first to uncover the victims, is so important.
By blocking access to this material, you stop the re-victimisation and by detecting child sexual abuse material, those with a sexual interest in children can be found. Most importantly, by finding the material and uncover victims, we can protect children and stop abuse.
The result of locating individuals who have a sexual interest in children could save children from ongoing, as well as future, abuse. Studies show that there is a strong correlation between watching sexual abuse material and actually committing hands-on child sexual abuse.
How is it spread?
Child sexual abuse material is illegal to distribute, download and view in most countries. It is also the reason why distributors and consumers try to avoid being discovered and the explanation for trying to conceal the material on the internet. Still, the spread of child sexual abuse material is something that is constantly increasing. It has grown into a mass market with the Internet as a distribution channel and revenue in millions of millions.
File sharing is the most common method of distributing child sexual abuse material. Other common ways to distribute this material is through darknet /TOR, social media, cloud based services and instant messaging. 50-80 % of the material is found through P2P and file sharing. Read more about the most common methods to share child sexual abuse material.
If you want to read more about this issue, we recommend the NetClean Report. Which, in addition to statistics also contains information from several experts within this area.
1 in 500 persons look at child sexual abuse material while at work.
Half of those who consume child sexual abuse material abuse children physically.
of the offenders abuse children that they have a close relationship with.
"Child sexual abuse is a global problem that will only be stopped by a serious global effort. Success depends on all of us!"
Anna Borgström, Head of NetClean
The Netclean Report
The NetClean Report is an annual publication on child sexual abuse crime. It provides valuable insights into the experiences of law enforcement professionals working with child sexual exploitation cases.

In this video, you'll meet two courageous young people who faced life-threatening illness and overcame the odds.
JJ was diagnosed with Leukemia in 2006 and, at the same time, his family learned he had also had a stroke that left him unable to walk and talk at the age of 7. After being off treatment for 11 months, JJ then relapsed in 2008. A bone marrow transplant at the Aflac Cancer Center saved his life.
With one of the highest success rates in the nation for this kind of transplant, JJ and his family experienced world-class care from the doctors and nurses in the Aflac Cancer Center. Today, JJ is a strong, enthusiastic child with a bright future.
Gracie's Story

Due to its location, Gracie had to complete 6 rounds of chemotherapy and twenty-three radiation treatments before finally having surgery to remove the tumor. Thanks to the treatment she received at the Aflac Cancer Center, Gracie is now cancer-free.
For the families of children like JJ and Gracie, these kinds of horrific diagnoses can be devastating. Most parents don't know where to turn for help.

Original Review by Alan Rogers
Based on Wally Lamb's bestselling novel Wishin' and Hopin', Colin Theys' 2014 film follows Felix (Wyatt Ralff), a 10-year-old boy growing up in small-town Connecticut in the mid-1960s. It's a nostalgic tale following Felix's experiences in the lead up to the staging of his school's Christmas Pageant (an older Felix (Chevy Chase) looks back at events at his Catholic school via narration). However, the arrival of a new substitute, Madame Frechette (played by Molly Ringwald), and a fiery Russian student (Siobhan Cohen) ensure that Felix's lead up to Christmas will be fraught with problems. For the film's score, director Theys' returned to promising young composer Matthew Llewellyn; the director-composer duo had already worked together earlier in 2014 on the horror/thriller Deep In The Darkness. Llewellyn has come to prominence over the last couple of years with the release of two excellent horror scores by Screamworks Records – the aforementioned Deep In The Darkness and another horror effort, Dead Souls (2012, co-composed with Jonathan Bartz). With Wishin' and Hopin' Llewellyn moves away from horror and treats the listener to a wonderfully enthusiastic and rich orchestral score, full of warmth, drama and emotion, and peppered with seasonal references as well as some subtle hint of threat.
Llewellyn's score is packed full of memorable themes and motifs. Although the composer intended to write themes only for the main characters (e.g., Felix, the school nuns), by the time the score was completed many other themes had been composed for additional characters (e.g., Madame Frechette, the Russian student Zhenya, etc.) Catchy themes and motifs are expertly combined as the story unfolds, with Llewellyn keeping each of the score's components fresh through expert orchestration variations and modifications in musical tempo. Although labelled by many as a Christmas film, Wishin' and Hopin' is surprisingly sparse in terms of Christmas musical references. Rather than being magical or relentlessly heart-warming, Llewellyn focuses on emphasising the nostalgia of remembered memories; the friendships, the failures, the embarrassing moments, the all-consuming loves that are experienced when growing up – the film itself is rarely "schmaltzy" aiming instead for a sense of realism where things can and do go wrong (but are just as nostalgically remembered). The majority of the festive references are with the songs licensed for the film, with Llewellyn's music fitting around them. As such, although the score fits well into any Christmas playlist, the music for Wishin' and Hopin' is equally at home in any all-year-round playlists.
The album opens with "Introducing The Class", a wonderfully bright track that lays out some of the themes and motifs that appear throughout the score. First heard is a lilting nostalgic theme played on clarinet, this opening theme immediately frames what's to come in the cozy haze often associated with fond childhood memories. Llewellyn then moves to a second theme played on solo flute and accompanied by jaunty strings. Then, the light-heartedness of the score is reinforced once more with a brief motif on strings and woodwinds. And all in the space of the first minute of the score! And so the rest of the score unfolds; numerous themes being stated and restated, rarely becoming tiring because of the composer's skill at varying orchestrations and tempo to keep it all fresh (e.g., take a listen at how the recurring themes are varied in tracks such as "Madame Frechette", "Lincoln Log Life", "The Russian Menace" and "My Current Event"). Other particularly memorable themes include those heard in "The Nefarious Penguin" and "Madame Frechette". Of particular note is the latter cue, "Madame Frechette", which features a beautiful strings-led melody that has an almost English pastoral feel to it and adds a contrast to the gaiety of the score: it receives a particularly sad statement in "The Silent Treatment".
An Eastern European-influenced waltz, heard in cues including "The New Student" and "The Russian Menace" (and possibly related to Zhenya, the new Russian pupil), adds a sense of the exotic to things, reinforcing perhaps the different values and ideas being introduced to the school. It may be no coincidence then that, towards the end of "The Russian Menace", Llewellyn suddenly introduces an over-the-top romantic theme that would be appropriate for any 10-year-old's sudden infatuation with "fresh blood" in school. The briefest appearance of this romantic moment, the interplay of the numerous themes, as well as the addition of various comedic motifs (including the sliding strings of "A Little Woozy") show off the composer's ability to incorporate these various elements into a cohesive whole that makes for a very rewarding listen. Although entirely in keeping with the lightness of the rest of the score, Llewellyn's experience in writing for horror films does make an appearance in Wishin' and Hopin'. The glissandi strings, low end strings and piano of "Heads Will Roll" adds a level of the dread not heard elsewhere in the score. After 30 minutes playing time, the final few cues bring the album to a close with a restatement of all the major thematic elements with an exuberance that has characterised the rest of the score. And the album's closing track, "Annette and Felix", ends the score with a sumptuous re-statement of the album's opening themes.
Wishin' and Hopin' is a lovely score and evokes a feeling of nostalgia not just in the film but also in those who miss strong theme-based film scoring seldom heard today. On a personal level, one of the many strengths of this score is that it doesn't sound too much of Christmas ("Bah, humbug!" I heard you cry). The composer has focused on telling the story of Felix and those around him and only occasionally reminds the listener of when the story is set: chimes and what sounds like celesta colour the music with the briefest suggestion of Christmas. As mentioned earlier, this all makes Wishin' and Hopin' an album for any occasion and it should appeal to anyone who enjoys thematic orchestral scoring. Llewellyn's craftsmanship at creating memorable thematic scores across a number of musical genres bodes well for future projects from this up-and-coming composer and I look forward to hearing what he has to offer in the years to come. MovieScore Media's Wishin' and Hopin' is heartily recommended (it took the top spot in my own Reel Music Awards, winning in the "Best Score – Comedy" category). Llewellyn's score can be purchased from a variety of online digital stores and audio clips can be heard HERE.

Voyage Ethereal blog all week but haven't got round to it. In a couple of posts he covers a thousand years of rowing.
The second post is the first, at least in historical terms. The Gokstad small boat was built in by the Vikings in the 9th century and was part of the burial goods of a warrior king who died in about 900AD.
The Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde, Denmark, makes reproductions of Viking ships and including a new Gokstad small boat for the Danish-Canadian museum in Dickson, Edmonton, Canada.
The process started with buying an oak tree, splitting it into planks and gradually adzing, bending and nailing it into a shape that is still recognisable in boats from Scotland to Sweden today. Fascinating.
Finesse, a modern, plywood outrigger-and-sliding-seat flyer designed by Ken Bassett as the Firefly.
Doryman has 'detuned' her, installing fixed seats. He had to make some new outriggers and calls them 'underengineered'.
Despite the slight regression from the modern obsession with sliding seats, the average Viking would be unable to see any use for Finesse - until he was invited to race in her. Then the lightness and rigidity of glued plywood construction and the mechanical advantage of the outriggers would speak for themselves.
The sliding seats are only an advantage in sprints, of course. Over distance, fixed seats often win because the rowers don't have to extend their leg muscles to their full extension which is brutally wearing.

Sophos eyes Government and PSU businesses, empanels itself to NICSI
| Updated: Aug 23, 2017 11:20 IST
New Delhi [India], Jan.11 (ANI): Sophos has empanelled key products of its next-generation Sophos XG Firewall to National Informatics Centre Services Incorporated (NICSI), a Government of India enterprise under the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology. The products include Hardware appliances (XG Firewall 85 to XG 750), Enterprise Guard and Full Guard Subscription (1 to 5 years for XG Firewall series), Sophos Firewall Manager (SFM 200,300, & 400 with 1 to 3 years Subscription) and LAN/WAN Modules and Transceivers. The company has been working closely with NICSI to better address the emerging cyber security challenges and network performance problems that are faced by various government agencies and infrastructure. "We have empanelled our products and stabilised the service and rate that can be leveraged by government organisations. The advantage of buying through NICSI is that government organisations need not float tenders or invite bids. They can directly check for products and vendors that meet their requirements and ask for a demo or deployment," said Sunil Sharma, vice president, sales at Sophos. "It is an opportunity to work in close association with NICSI to evaluate network security needs from the ground up, as mandatory for many PSUs, government agencies and offices," he further added.

This hack of a newborn baby gown into a complete American Girl Doll outfit *does* work, although I'm not nearly as pleased with the outcome as I am when I make the much simpler newborn baby onesie to American Girl Doll T-shirt. A baby gown, even the newborn size, is just roomier than a onesie, I guess, so although the skirt works fine, the shirt is too loose:
Anyway, here's the complete outfit:
And even though you might think that simply cutting off the bottom half of the baby gown would be simpler than making a skirt from scratch, you still have to make a casing for the elastic, pull the elastic through, then finish sewing the casing closed.
It's actually much simpler, I think, to make my favorite double-sided wrap skirt with Velcro tabs, and that skirt looks nicer, as well:
Ah, well... there's much to be gained just in the process of experimentation, and Syd, at least, doesn't seem to mind the fit:
That purple/My Little Pony Skirt and grey/Dalek skirt are both in my pumpkin+bear etsy shop, by the way, along with rainbow candles, a beeswax moveable alphabet, and a couple of sets of bean bags, among other treats and treasures. After we get back from Hawaii, I need to shift my shop prep into high gear for Christmas, because those sales are my Christmas budget, and I suppose that my own kids would like something besides rainbow candles and bean bags for Christmas, sigh...

So after a week of research, reading articles, reading classmates' posts, and looking at several blogs themselves (some I already read, and some I just started following a few days ago), I think I was looking at trying to find an answer the wrong way. I started out being so formal about the whole thing. I wanted to find ONE definition/answer of what a blog is and have all by questions to be able to be checked off and answered. How long do post need to be? How many pictures do you need? What is considered content of blogs? I realized that blogs are an ever-evolving thing and the minute you try to put blogs into a closed box/category, something changes so it bounces right out.
From Jill Rettberg, I learned that there can be categories of blogs: "filter, diary, and topic-driven blogging". For me, I liked that you can organize what a blog is by its content, but it still wasn't a definitive answer for what a blog IS.
To Travel the Great Beyond found a very interesting source by Jeff Jarvis that said "blogs are whatever they want to be". There aren't limits and boundaries to what can be considered a blog. The only limits created are created by you, which doesn't mean those same rules apply to others.
I touched on this in my original post about blogging that blogs are their own entity. They can be whatever I want for my own purpose. The saying "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" rings true for blogs. What I consider to be "blog content" might look different to someone else. Perspective is huge in this matter.
While trying to answer the question "what is a blog?", I took a new angle on my search which was "why do people blog?"
Madelyn Haasken found a good article summarizing why people blog. It shows the positives of blogging and could incentivize more people to become bloggers.
Rebecca Blood said,"I strongly believe in the power of weblogs to transform both writers and readers from 'audience' to 'public' and from 'consumer' to 'creator'." She saw blogging as a way for people to go from passively watching/reading to being able to participate.
From everything I read, common trends I noticed about blogs and bloggers were people want to feel connected/included, and people wanted to feel important. As humans, I think we all crave that feeling of being wanted and heard. People blog because they want to understand the world and they want to be understood. It's a way for people to connect even if other barriers stand in the way (distance, language, etc.). Blogs are a personal platform where your thoughts can be turned into information for mass consumption. It can be a no pressure/judgment place to share anything you deem important to share.

LVT floor fitting experts London
Luxury Vinyl Tiles
LVTs are fast becoming a viable alternative for wooden floors and ceramic tiles at the top end of the market.
Cavendish deVere are expert LVT installers and we fit all over London.
What are LVT floors?
LVT stands for Luxury Vinyl Tiles. A superior product to domestic sheet vinyl, it can closely replicate the character, graining and look of real hardwood floors, stone or porcelain tiles. It comes in tile shapes and planks and can be fitted in interesting geometric patterns to create striking floor spaces.
The advantages of LVT floors
A process called photogravure is used to create a three dimensional representation of natural materials that is attached in a sandwich of glass fibre and vinyl layers to give it strentgh and durability.
Products that are made from 100% vinyl material can boast Green building standards and can be eligible for LEED points in commercial applications.
LVT floors are very easy to maintain. A damp mop is all it takes.
And there are more advantages
LVTs are water resistant and suitable for bathrooms and kitchens as well as dining areas.
Specialized wear layers mean it is hard to scuff, dent, scratch or stain and most have a minimum guarantee of 10 years - some have 20.
Unlike a wooden floor it won't fade over time or under UV light (from a Skylight for example) and because it is so hard to scratch it won't ever need sanding. Great for kitchen diners where chairs drag on the floor.
There is a vast selection of sizes, shapes and styles - from lined and distressed wood, to tactile slate and porcelain effect tiles.
Geomteric patterns
LVTs can be arranged in an almost infinite array of geometric patternsto make the floor the centre-piece of the room.
When you need an expert
At Cavendish deVere we have fitted hundreds of LVT floors. The subfloor is key on an LVT, it has to be super-smooth and this is where the expert fitter takes the time an amateur won't. We offer a 12 month installation warranty on all LVT floors we supply and fit - that is an industry leading standard and an offer you will not find anywhere else in London.

Seriously, if you had to answer that question, what's the first thing you'd say?
>>Sex with ex: 6 things that can go surprisingly good or terribly wrong
Having sex before you're married can make our friendship less powerful
And many couples, once they become sexually active, find that their relationship does now revolve around sex. Instead of finding other things to do, they stay in. Instead of socializing with other people, they jump in bed. And what happens? They lose their friendship. In fact, studies have shown that the level of emotional connection you're at when you start having sex tends to be the level you stay at. Sex gives you an artificial feeling of intimacy. Then when you get married, you realize your relationship is shallow, and it's harder to get it back on track. It's better to build that emotional connection early!
A relationship can't survive on sex alone
You need other things to keep you going. One of the benefits of not having sex while you're engaged is that you're forced to find other things to occupy your time. You talk, and find out about each other. You find hobbies or sports you can do together. You go biking, or hiking, or you play golf. You volunteer together. You DO something.
Once you get married, you settle into a routine. You go to work. You come home. You have dinner. You watch TV. You go to bed. You have sex. The problem is that, for women especially, you're not going to want to make love unless you're also connecting on different levels. And sex should be the culmination of the relationship, not the basis of the relationship. Sex should flow out of your friendship, affection, and companionship; your companionship, affection and friendship can't flow out of sex. We need to feel connected first. But so does he. For sex to be meaningful, it has to be two people who truly love and want to be together. But how do you know if you want to be together if you don't really know each other? You can have sex a ton and not really know each other, because you're not doing anything else.
That's why we have that period, in engagement, to get to know each other. And the habits we develop then will carry over. If you've been helping out at church together, you'll keep doing that. If you've been hanging out with your siblings, or with your friends, then you now have friends you can spend time with together. If you've been biking, you know you like doing that together.
But if you've been doing very little of anything at all, what is going to hold you together once you're married? You need to have a friendship; you need a reason for that connection. Sex can't be that. And couples who have learned how to build their friendship beforehand do much better in the long run.
Sex cements you together, when perhaps you should stay apart
Another woman wrote, "I confused sex with love. I thought that since we were having sex, we were bonded and meant to be together. I was wrong. I shouldn't have married him." Sex gives you a false sense of intimacy. When we have sex, we release the "bonding hormone" oxytocin, which makes us feel close to the person we're with. We start to experience those fluttery feelings, and the wistful longing for that person.
But it doesn't mean it's based on anything real. Many people have "fallen into" marriage because they've been having sex and it seems like the next logical step. But while the physical side of their relationship accelerated, the rest of it didn't. And now their friendship is stunted and it doesn't look like they can build it up again.
You don't know how to make love
Sex is supposed to be about connecting you together on all levels. When you have sex without the commitment, you take the bonding part out of the equation. And it's very hard to get it back. So it means that sex, once you're married, won't be the powerful emotional force that it can be for others. It's still focused primarily on the physical, and not on the rest. The emotional is not the primary consideration.

Classroom Storage Furniture - Child Friendly Fixtures for Schools & Daycare
Preschool & Daycare Shelving Rounds Out any Toddler's Classroom
How do I store children's books and toys in one convenient place? This collection of classroom storage furniture is great for creating an easy-access space for kids' supplies. When operating a daycare, preschool or kindergarten service, one of the biggest enrollment factors is the presentation of the environment. Having the right classroom storage furniture in place can be a deciding factor of whether or not a parent will enroll their toddler in the class. With this daycare-safe collection from Displays2go, classrooms can have all the accessories needed to foster an organized and fun learning experience.
Why is classroom storage furniture the best choice for kids? Teachers know you need somewhere to put books, art supplies, and toys — or things are going to get messy quick. In addition, toddlers aren't the best at putting stuff back where they got it. This classroom furniture complements bookshelves and make it incredibly easy to organize and hold a large amount of materials to conserve space. Each unit has front facing shelves that are great for organizing and displaying books. Show off the collection for both parents and kids alike to view, while keeping other supplies neatly tucked away for when they're needed.
Classroom furniture is essential to any preschool environment. Our child-friendly furnishings are ideal because they're sized for young children. Whether it's time for reading or playing, toddlers can easily walk up to the shelves and grab what they want. The large space in each pocket means that bulky toys and large books will have no problem fitting.
This furniture comes with extra features that are great for daycares and schools. Mobile shelving units are ideal for rolling out during specific times of the day like story time or "clean up". Easily push a rolling book cart aside when it's not going to be used and keep it tucked away in the corner. Check out our full selection of preschool furniture and accessories to find everything that busy teachers and toddlers need to thrive!


text: My teeth were solid, but my jaw bone was decaying away, so they figured they could put me in some new teeth, straight in and not be loose. They put me out; they did every bit of the surgery while I was completely asleep. When I came out, I had a brand new set of teeth. My teeth are essentially like dentures: they're all one piece. They put implants: they put four implants on the top, five implants on the bottom. Then they screw it straight into these implants—or into these bases—so that they don't come out, they don't move around or anything. I never took not one painkiller after I had the surgery, but they still called, checked on us, and, "Anything you need, let us know; we'll be there."--Chris

The Bungalow by Sarah Jio
I just read Sarah Jio's Violets of March last month and LOVED it! So, I was super amped to read her new book, The Bungalow. With both of Jio's books, there is a war/historial fiction/romance/mystery element. With Violets of March, it's focused on the girl still in the States during the war. And in The Bungalow, it's focused on the girl going to Bora-Bora to help with the war efforts.
The Bungalow follows the story of Anne Calloway. She has went to nursing school to learn a trade never thinking she'll use it as she's engaged to a wealthy man. Something inside is gnawing at her telling her that she needs to help with the war effort and she also needs an adventure before settling down.
Cut to Anne and her best friend, Kitty, traveling to Bora-Bora to join the Army Nurse Corps. Anne stumbles upon an abandoned bungalow where she meets a soldier, Westry. They become friends and decided to fix up the bungalow and keep it their secret. From there, the friendship turns to love and Anne is torn between passion and her commitment to her fiance back home.
The Bungalow is a very quick read. I'm becoming a fast fan of historical romance. Parts of the book are highly predictable though. Maybe it's because I've read the Violets of March and knew Jio's style. But I would have liked more surprise elements. All in all, still a good read!!

Most Australians would be aware of Brendan Jones, most likely as one half of the popular breakfast radio team Jonesy & Amanda with Amanda Keller.
In the book, Jonesy tells all in what is an amusing memoir of growing up in suburban Sydney and following his dream to be a radio DJ.
In the irreverent style that fans of his top-rating breakfast radio show know and love, Jonesy shares his funny anecdotes and various media adventures — both on radio and TV — as well as his passion for his true love, motorbikes!
To celebrate the launch of his book, and his 50th birthday, ManSpace sat down with Jonesy to ask a few questions about what readers should expect.
ManSpace: What made you want to write a book and why now?
Jonesy: On the cusp of 50 is as good as time as ever! Its nice to take stock at this midway point, which means I'll be like a Galapagos turtle and live to a hundred.
ManSpace: What can people expect from a book written by Jonesy?
Jonesy: It's for anyone of a certain age that gets all misty eyed about riding around in the back of a ute, or going out in the morning and not coming back until the street lights came on and burning stuff in the incinerator.
ManSpace: A book titled '50 Shades…" may lead people to expect something very specific and perhaps salacious. Are we about to see a side of Jonesy that Australia may not be ready for?
Jonesy: There is an awkward situation with some hardcore porn mags and my parents.
ManSpace: What will readers be most surprised to learn about you in this book?
Jonesy: Other than hardcore porn mags? I went to school in England. And had a major crush on a notorious Sydney underworld figure's daughter.
ManSpace: Amanda Keller describes you as a 'charming idiot' – is this a good thing? How would you describe her in a foreward for her autobiography?
Jonesy: I'm talking to my lawyers about her introduction as we speak.
ManSpace: She also poses the question of whether you are fearful of turning 50. Are you? If so, why?
Jonesy: No, not fearful. Grateful; if you make it this far you've done all right!

Journal: Hand drawn lettering sketches and experimental work
I like to draw, much of the time I draw letters, in an infinite variety of ways, using a fascinating variety of tools and media - pens, brushes, inks, paints, markers, bits of old stick - whatever gets the job done.
Over the years, I've built up a range of sketchbooks and folders of loose sheets of experimental work. Sometimes it's as simple as trying out a new ink or pen, at others, it's more complex and I'm exploring different approaches to express my ideas. I might be inspired by an exhibition I've seen, a book I'm reading or just want to capture a random thought.
This isn't commissioned work, it's personal and in general, I'm less interested in perfection than I am in encouraging an enquiring mind. Sketches and experimental work provide a great creative resource in a busy life and if I haven't got time to pursue an idea now, it's safely noted in my sketchbook for a later time when I can explore it further. I see my sketches as the start of a conversation with myself that may go on for years.
You'll find some of my sketchbook pages posted below, I'll update them from time to time when I have something interesting to include. I also post them on my social media, you'll find links to my accounts in my website header - I'm most active on Facebook and Instagram.
This and all of my personal projects can be found most easily by clicking through to my journal folder on my website, which is the space I reserve for projects and events outside my normal commissioned work. If you'd like to see videos of one of my handmade sketchbooks, head over to my HP Lettering Sketchbook project or to see me in action, creating both analogue and digital lettering, click through to the videos folder.


text: Bronzers work a lot like self tanners, but they are usually washable after use. A bronzer or sun makeup is ideal to use if you prefer to have an instant subtle glow or light tan to your skin. Some of our products are also excellent alternatives to your everyday makeup. If you're looking for a longer lasting tanned glow, we recommend that you check out self tanners.

This week at JSN Ron Kessler gave a presentation on EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE.
Ron covered highlights from the 18 Emotional Intelligence Leadership Competencies discussed in the book Primal Leadership by Daniel Goleman, Richard Boyatzis, and Annie McKee. Four primary areas were covered: Self-awareness, Self-Management, Social Awareness and Relationship Management. He provided an excellent handout with details about each of the 18 competencies in these areas.
Emotional self-awareness. Leaders high in emotional self-awareness are attuned to their inner signals, recognizing how their feelings affect them and their job performance. They are attuned to their guiding values and can often intuit the best course of action, seeing the big picture in a complex situation. Emotionally self-aware leaders can be candid and authentic, able to speak openly about their emotions or with conviction about their guiding vision.
Self-control / Self-management. Leaders with emotional self-control find ways to manage their disturbing emotions and impulses, and even to channel them in useful ways. A hallmark of self-control is the leader who stays calm and clear-headed under high stress or during a crisis – or who remains unflappable even when confronted by a trying situation.
Social awareness / Service. Leaders high in the service competence foster an emotional climate so that people directly in touch with the customer or client will keep the relationship on the right track. Such leaders monitor customer or client satisfaction carefully to ensure they are getting what they need. They also make themselves available as needed.
Relationship management / Influence. Indicators of a leader's powers of influence range from finding just the right appeal for a given listener to knowing how to build buy-in from key people and a network of support for an initiative. Leaders adept in influence are persuasive and engaging when they address a group.
Ron's opening devotional discussed Nehemiah. Nehemiah was in the role that God had provided to him as cup bearer to the King. Nehemiah listened to the voices around him. He listened for needs: the needs of the King (cup bearer); and the needs that God made him aware of (rebuilding the wall around Jerusalem). Ron shared an example from his own life when he received a message from a homeless man, "Things can't be as bad as it seems." This was a revelation to Ron from a very unexpected source that was the seed that grew into the next career phase of his life.
Nehemiah then prayed and fasted, seeking God's direction. After understanding God's direction he took the next step, asking the King for time and resources to go to Jerusalem and re-build the wall.
Ron encouraged us to Listen to the voices around us to discover needs that we can meet. Then Pray to seek God's direction. Finally Take the Next Step.

Man who drowned in Roseville police chase identified
A Hennepin County medical examiner has identified the man who drowned in Farrell's Lake after a police chase Saturday night as 37-year-old Andrew Paul Heim of Minneapolis.
According to a statement issued Monday from Roseville police, Heim fled police after being pulled over for a broken taillight at approximately 9:30 p.m. Aug. 10 near the intersection of Cleveland and Oakcrest avenues in Roseville.
Heim slowed initially but did not stop for the squad's emergency flashing lights, leading Roseville police on a nearly 3-mile pursuit north on Cleveland. Heim was driving a 2002 BMW 530iA sedan without a rear license plate and was traveling north towards County Road E2, authorities stated.
According to the police department, the vehicle pursuit ended when Heim crashed the BMW into a wooded area south of Farrell's Lake in Arden Hills, near where Cleveland makes a T intersection into County Road E2.
Officers used a police K9 to track Heim and located him about 40 yards from the shoreline on the south side of the lake. He refused to come out of the water at their commands and shouted expletives back at them.
However, he appeared to be struggling to stay afloat, officers said, and they began stripping off their gear to head into the water after him. For about five minutes, four police officers took turns diving in about 20 feet of muddy water, searching for the suspect without success.
They then requested water rescue.
At approximately 10:15 p.m. the New Brighton and Lake Johanna Fire Department Water Rescue teams recovered Heim about 40 yards from shore.
Heim was immediately transported to Hennepin County Medical Center where he was pronounced dead.
According to Minnesota Department of Motor Vehicle records, Heim's license had been suspended since March 29 for failure to pay fines.
Heim was on probation in Hennepin County for fifth degree possession of a controlled substance and for driving under the influence of a controlled substance.
He has previous convictions related to driving under the influence, felony narcotics and burglary and probation violations.
Police found a large quantity of oxycodone in the vehicle when they executed a search warrant Monday. The BMW Heim was driving appears to have been purchased recently from Auto Star Auto Sales in Maple Grove and was registered with a 21-day temporary permit.
According to police, Heim would have likely been arrested for probable cause felony narcotics. He could have faced a felony charge of possession of a controlled substance in the fifth degree, which would have carried a maximum five year sentence, a fine of not more than $10,000, or both.
"Farrell's Lake," though not named on area maps, is a deep pond just northeast of the County Road E2-35W intersection. According to information attributed to the New Brighton Area Historical Society and posted at reflections.mndigital.org, John Farrell, an Irish immigrant, purchased 160 acres in 1868, covering an area from Lake Johanna to the present sites of Mounds View High School and St. John the Baptist Church.

Kemp's Ridley turtle (Lepidochelys kempii)
These turtles are the smallest of the seven sea turtle species, weighing between 35 – 45 kg and measuring approximately 0.6 m in length. They nest in mass congregations known as " Arribada's" similar to their relative the olive ridley. They possess triangular shaped heads with hooked beaks and strong jaws. Kemp's ridleys reach sexual maturity between 10-15 years of age which is significantly younger than most of the other species.
Distribution and habitats
This turtle has an extremely restricted range, nesting only along the Caribbean shores of northern Mexico and in Texas, U.S.A. The primary nesting grounds in Mexico are at Rancho Nuevo, in the state of Tamaulipas, and in Texas along the Padre Island National Seashore. A small number have also nested further north along the Texas coast. However, 95% of all nesting occurs in Mexico in the state of Tamaulipas. Fifty years ago, the Kemp's ridley was near extinction. Although this species now shows signs of recovery, fishing nets and coastal development continue to threaten the species.
For all life stages, mostly benthic invertebrates (crabs, other crustaceans, and mollusks) and some jellies.
