Jhene Aiko, her agent and her manager are huddled together on a recent afternoon going over upcoming gigs for the buzzing alternative-R&B star.
The women discuss potential opening acts, production logistics, collaboration requests, whether or not she can make time for Coachella -- her set last year was a highlight and she may pop up as a surprise guest this year -- and fitting in a vacation to the Himalayas around rehearsals and South by Southwest ("If it's not possible I'll do Hawaii," she tells her agent after a potential conflict is mentioned).
In 2010 she began collaborating with Top Dawg Entertainment's roster of rappers and appeared on early mixtapes from L.A. rappers Kendrick Lamar, Schoolboy Q and Ab-Soul, before each had their own breakout moment. Her 2011 mixtape, "Sailing Soul(s)" led to a deal with hip-hop producer No I.D. (Kanye West, Nas, Common).
"Knowing that more people are listening, I only want to be progressive. I only want to grow," she said. "The extra attention validates my reason to want to do more with the music. I want to be consistent and remain myself -- being myself got me nominated, so I guess I'm going to stick with that."
Being able to float between R&B and rap allowed her to become a hip-hop "it girl," offering sultry, expressive hooks on singles from J. Cole, Wale, Big Sean, Drake and Common (their collaboration "Black Majik" was nominated in the Grammys' rap category), adding to her growing buzz.
Her EP was a Top 10 debut on the Billboard 200 and featured Aiko's first big hit, "The Worst," a mainstay on urban radio (and a nominee for R&B song). That preceded her years-in-the-making full-length "Souled Out," which debuted at No. 3 when it was released in September. And she's already at work on new music.
"The album that I put out last year, all those songs I had been working on for so long, it's old to me now," Aiko said. "I'm in a different place now with my writing and my singing. Everything has progressed and that's what I always want to do. Everything should trump the last thing."
Later, Aiko retreated to a studio room. Her engineer played part of a track she may lend a vocal to for a remix (the collaboration could introduce her to a wider audience). She pulled out a pad of paper and began humming a melody and writing lyrics.
"Even though I've been doing this since I was 13, I feel like this is the first time that I'm in it and 100% focused," she admitted. "It's all working for me, so I need to work for it."

Putting God on The Shelf
A few weeks ago I received an e-mail from my good friend Cindy that read:
"My life revolves around God, but at times I put Him on a shelf and call on Him when I need Him."
I thanked Cindy for her message, and then spent a few moments reflecting on what she'd said. I never really considered the notion of putting God on the shelf, but I think that it's a pretty good analogy. I guess that many of us have, at some point in our lives, put God on the shelf…especially when life is good.
How do you define a true friend?
Someone to laugh with? Cry with? Someone with whom you can share your darkest secrets, your fears, your hopes, your dreams? Someone that you know will be there for you, regardless of the situation, regardless of your need? Someone in which you may place all of your trust? Someone who will celebrate your victories, and offer consolation in your defeats? Someone that "has your back", that's gonna cover you, that's gonna put you first? Always?
Do you have a friend like that?
I believe that true friends help us to grow…they push us to be better through encouragement, sharing, and nurturing.
True friends are very rare indeed. If you've had at least one true friend, consider yourself fortunate. If you've had more than one, consider yourself to be blessed.
Good time friends.
I think it's safe to say that most friendships spring from good times. I mean, how many times have you attended a funeral or a foreclosure to strike up a new acquaintance? I know that's a bit extreme, but I think you get what I'm trying to say…new friends are more often found at venues such as church, social functions, and sporting events. We meet someone with a common interest, passion, or personality trait, and a friendship grows from that meeting.
It is from those good times friendships that true friends are found…friends that help us get through the bad times.
How about God?
Do you consider God to be your friend? If not, well maybe you should.
He's always there for you, especially when you need Him. He knows your darkest secrets, your fears, your hopes, and your dreams. You can trust Him with all that you have, and cry out to Him in times of need or despair.
And as far as making you a better person? Take a look at what He has to offer you…
The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him-the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and fear of the Lord-and he will delight in the fear of the Lord. ISAIAH 11:2-3 (NIV)
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. GALATIANS 5:22-23 (NIV)
To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit, to another faith by the same spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit, to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues. 1 CORINTHIANS 12:8-10 (NIV)
All of these "gifts" are available to us through a relationship…a friendship, with God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
And that part about putting you first?
For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. JOHN 3:16 (NIV)
Do you get what I'm trying to say here?
If you let Him, God will be the best friend that you ever had. Think about that for a moment.
My wife Jackie is an amazing lady…she nurtures me, pushes me to be better, does all the things that a friend should do, and is all the things that a friend should be. Be that as it may, there are things that Jackie cannot do for me, things that she cannot give to me, things…blessings, that I can only receive from God.
And remember: true, meaningful friendships are developed first through the good times. It's the same way with God. Get to know Him when life is good. Run after Him when things are just right, when your life seems "perfect." Enjoy His company, and love Him, and laugh with Him, and talk to Him when all is well. Thank Him for the good in your life…tell Him that you love Him…bask in His glory! Don't just wait until you need Him.
You see, having a relationship with God when things are really good makes the bad stuff seem really, really, small.
Never put God on the shelf. Let Him be your constant companion. Your life will never be the same.
See you next week!

I'm a believer in stretching out enjoyment as much as possible. Why just enjoy that new shiny thing when you can enjoy looking forward to getting it AND the memories of having it as well? I want all of the enjoyment I can get. Especially if it don't cost a thing.
I've wanted a dog for the last few years.
Most recently, this summer, I was visiting my family, and they have a year-old golden retriever. I got to hang out with her allllll the time.
She's mischievous and sweet and spends most of the day sleeping. She never brings the ball back when you throw it. I couldn't get enough of her. Then, I moved across the country, and now's she's far away.
But it was good practice to be around a puppy, and I wanted more experience. So when I moved to LA, I volunteered with the local animal shelter. I got to take dogs on walks, pet cats, and talk to people who were looking to get a furry new best friend. Now that I can't volunteer as often, I look at all their photos of the adoptable animals.
I'm specifically looking for a vizsla mix, so of course I'm watching all the videos I can get about the breed. Here's one:
And here's another:
Maybe early next year will be the right time to get a dog. It's the financially prudent move to wait, since on average, having a dog costs about $700 a year. And that's once you already have the dog. Saving up, saving up, saving up!

Patrick Reed's Family Watches Masters Win From 3 Miles Away/
Both Alan Shipnuck of Golf.com and Ian O'Connor of ESPN.com talked to Patrick Reed's parents Sunday after their son won the 2018 Masters.
Bill and Jeannette have not been in touch with their son for six years, with Shipnuck reporting they were escorted off of Pinehurst during the U.S. Open at the request of Justine Reed, Patrick's wife.
From Shipnuck's report:
A friend of Bill and Jeannette's had extra tickets to the 2014 U.S. Open, so with some trepidation, they went to Pinehurst No. 2 and followed Patrick throughout the second round, hoping to perhaps reestablish contact and meet their granddaughter for the first time. Justine was also in the gallery, but no words were exchanged. Walking up the 18th hole, Bill, Jeannette and Hannah were surrounded by police officers. They ultimately were escorted off the grounds and had their tournament badges confiscated by a USGA official who, according to Jeannette, said he was acting on Justine's wishes. (In previous interviews Patrick and Justine declined to comment on any aspect of their relationship with his parents.)
O'Connor wrote that he joined Bill Reed in tears.
So we cried together Monday morning, two 50-something fathers talking about regrets and family divisions and the things people wished they would have said and done before loved ones passed away. We talked about green jackets, too. Patrick won the Masters 3 miles from where his father Bill and mother Jeannette and younger sister Hannah watched with family friends Sunday evening from their Augusta home. They were uninvited guests to the coronation of golf's brash new 27-year-old king.

It's already time for my 2nd DT reveal for Meg's Garden.
How fast time flies!
I am sharing with you today a canvas set that I created as a special order from a neighbour who wanted to give it as a gift to her brother. She had a lot of old and new pictures as keepsakes for her brother's life.
I immediately thought that the Meg's Garden Correspondence collection would be perfect to document all these treasured memories from the past and present.
The first and main canvas measures 12" x 12", featuring the most recent pictures of the man's life.
Large Canvas
I used a mixture of papers from both the Correspondence and Gentleman collections, many embellishments available on the Meg's Garden website as well as lots of 2Crafty chipboard.
All papers were distressed and misted with various color inks to give the canvases a more aged look.
The big Moonlight fabric flower seen above was a perfect focal point for the flower cluster
on the large canvas as it is quite large itself, measuring at 11cm diameter.
I gave it a more antique look by dabbing brown ink on it followed by white paint.
The Puffy Paper Flowers were just as perfect, being that they're very thick and ideal for giving added dimension and relief to such a project.
Adding a strip of Burlap Trim covered by the Watchband Silver Trim
gave just the right amount of antique and at the same time pizzazz to my canvases.
You can see here a close-up of the mixed media techniques I used on my canvas. I started off adding layers of the beautiful Meg's Garden papers. I then used a stencil with molding paste to add texture and then went crazy with the mists and white paint for whitewashing. Then I topped everything off with this 2Crafty title and key which I rusted up a bit with gesso and mists.
More close-ups of the details...
And finally a sideways look to show you the depth of the canvas.
Each side canvas I used to document the earlier memories and older pictures
measure 15" x 6" approximately and were less deep.
Small Canvas 1
Small Canvas 2
I added some several family-themed quotes that I already had in my stash.
Below it is another beautiful 2Crafty piece.
Below it is another beautiful 2Crafty piece.
I also added a few pieces of the Round Silver Diamante Trim with a brown gem inside each centre.
Below you see a chipboard keyhole that I covered with gesso,
glimmer mists and paint to give it an old rusted look.
Wanting to keep the same look constant across the 3 canvases, I put smaller flower clusters on each smaller canvas along with butterflies from the Butterflies Collage Art ATC Paper.
One last look at some precious childhood memories...
My neighbour was very happy with the finished result
and I dare say that I made her shed a few tears.
and I dare say that I made her shed a few tears.
She couldn't believe the finite details and the amount of
beautiful flowers and products used.

I told her that it was thanks to some amazing Design Teams

Rise of the Guardians Movie
Rise of the Guardians (previously titled The Guardians of Childhood) is an upcoming CGI animated comedy movie directed by William Joyce and Peter Ramsey for Dreamworks. The film is based on The Guardians of Childhood, forthcoming books by William Joyce, the creator of Rolie Polie Olie and Meet the Robinsons. The voice cast of Rise of the Guardians can boast Chris Pine, Alec Baldwin, Hugh Jackman, Isla Fisher, Jude Law and Dakota Goyo. The release date of the film is set for November 21, 2012.
Here's a first official look at the movie Rise of the Guardians (there's Jack Frost and an early concept art):
(Click on the picture to enlarge.)
"The movie Rise of the Guardians tells the story of a group of heroes – each with extraordinary abilities. When an evil spirit known as Pitch lays down the gauntlet to take over the world, the immortal Guardians must join forces for the first time to protect the hopes, beliefs and imagination of children all over the world. This epic 3D adventure stars Chris Pine as Jack Frost, Alec Baldwin as North (Santa Claus), Hugh Jackman as Bunnymund (Easter Bunny), Isla Fisher as Tooth (Tooth Fairy) and Jude Law as Pitch (The Boogeyman)."
All those characters would make a hell of a team! The evil Pitch can't beat them. Er, yep, I'm totally hooked by Dreamworks' Rise of the Guardians.
More details about the movie Rise of the Guardians soon!

online events
Our online forums and discussions lists provide an opportunity for people to discuss a range of current issues without the need to achieve consensus or develop plans of action.
In presenting online events, the CRC uses open-source software, with particular appreciation for PhpBB and Drupal. PhpBB involves a group of individuals, based internationally, who believe in opensource software. Their goal remains unchanged and clear; to continue developing and supporting a stable, free, opensource forum system. Drupal similarly results from international, (primarily) volunteer efforts of people interested in making a collaborative content management system freely available.
We welcome your suggestions for other online events and ideas as well as your participation in those that are ongoing...
Healthy Communities Web Forum
~ This forum is currently closed. ~
The Healthy Communities Web Forum is a space for ongoing social discourse on the philosophies and practices surrounding healthy communities. We hope the forum offers visitors and participants an opportunity to share information, get to know one another, build networks, exchange ideas, or search through the storehouse of knowledge that the forum contains.
Tri University Ecohealth Web Forum
~ This forum is now closed ~
One of the interests of the CRC is to experiment with the use of online technology to facilitate community process. Using the content management system Drupal <http://www.drupal.org> - which enables collaborative editing of an online space - "civics.talk" was developed as one such experiment. (As noted elsewhere, this site is also a Drupal installation.)

Review | LUSH Shampoo Bars
I love Lush, especially their shampoo. I think their 'BIG' sea salt offering was the first product I ever bought from them and I've been impressed with their haircare range ever since. Their bath bomb fizzer whizzer things are good too, don't get me wrong, but it's their hair products that have always stood out for me. I therefore couldn't wait to get my hands on their range of 'shampoo bars'; fresh, natural shampoo goodness compacted into a handy travel sized block - what's not to love?
The first bar that caught my eye is 'Seanik', a bright blue bar that's packed full of seaweed and sea salt; designed to give the hair volume and lift without compromising on softness and shine. Other ingredients include lemon oil, orange flower and jasmine - making this one beautiful smelling shampoo. One of the key selling points of these bars is the lasting power of the fragrance; something that hasn't particularly lived up to expectation. The product itself smells gorgeous - there's no denying that - but once it's been lathered and rinsed out of my hair the smell just doesn't seem to stick as Lush claim it should, even if I don't use a separate conditioner. That being said, it's a lovely shampoo that does exactly what it says on the label (almost). After use my hair is left with a little more bounce than usual, but nothing all that noticeable - it is however incredibly soft and shiny. I use this when my mane is feeling particularly in need of a thorough cleanse or feels a little more dry than usual, but I find I do still need to load up the styling products in order to get the volume I truly want.
I also picked up 'Jumping Juniper', this time a vivid purple bar aimed at those with oilier hair types. Ingredients such as rosemary and lavender are used to soothe and protect the scalp, alongside oil from the juniperberry, which aims to control the scalp's sebum production. Oily hair is one of the many attributes I spend forever trying to correct, so I couldn't wait to give this one a go. Both bars lather extremely well - which actually took me by surprise a little when I first gave them a go as I didn't expect to get such a rich lather from a solid shampoo. JJ certainly helps to deeply cleanse and clarify my hair; something which doesn't need doing with every single wash, but as a weekly treatment it's a brilliant shampoo. I use a lot of styling products so this is the perfect option when I'm wanting to remove build up; cutting through the grease and giving my scalp a thorough clean. The scent of this isn't as up my street as that of Seanik, but it's pretty damn good none the less. I still wish it lasted longer in my hair though, but you can't have everything I guess!
The shampoo bars retail between £5.50 and £6.50 and there are 10 to choose from overall, each catering to different hair types and needs. Overall I really like the two that I've got. Lush state that as long as the bar is left to dry after each use they should last for around 90 washes each - or three times the amount of a regular bottle of shampoo, which definitely isn't bad. I haven't got to the end of either bar yet, but even after a fair bit of lathering they've barely changed size at all, so I can definitely see them lasting a fair while. The longevity of the scent is a bit of a let down for me, but I do love how gorgeous they smell; it makes showering a much more pleasant experience at least! If you're into natural products and are after something that really gives your hair a thorough cleanse I'd definitely recommend giving these a whirl (/sniff).

A day before he was relieved of his duties, former Denver Nuggets head coach Brian Shaw held one final pow wow with the local press, coming to the defense of his players.
The struggling Nuggets broke out of a team huddle during Friday's 104-82 loss to the visiting Utah Jazz by chanting "1, 2, 3, Six Weeks!", which was taken to mean that they were looking forward to the end of their dreadful regular season.
According to Shaw and his guys, this was not the case at all.
Per the Denver Post:
"I said, probably three or four days ago in practice, that we hadn't won a home game in six weeks," Shaw said. "Which dated back to Jan.14, against the Dallas Mavericks, was the last time we won a home game here, which was six weeks ago. So, the comment that the players made when they got together and said '1, 2, 3, six weeks!' was the players saying 'this is the end of the six weeks, we're going to get a win tonight on our home court and break the six-week losing spell on our home court.' Not six weeks that it's the end of the season. […] Now, coincidentally it does happen to be a little over six weeks from then, that it's the end of the season. But I think our players and the Denver Nuggets as a whole were misrepresented in how that was reported."
On Monday, while Shaw spoke with local media, Nuggets players peered over to media while they huddled up and gave the "1, 2, 3, six weeks!" to make sure the media heard them. […] Nuggets guard Ty Lawson called the notion that the chant meant players were looking forward to the end of the season "100 percent wrong." Forward Danilo Gallinari echoed Shaw's comments, that the players were chanting about the home losing streak, which stretched to 10 games with a loss to New Orleans on Sunday night. If the Nuggets don't beat Milwaukee on Tuesday night it officially will become a seven-week home losing streak.
Shaw said he did not suggest to players that they break a huddle saying "1, 2, 3, six weeks!" and wasn't even part of a huddle or near it when it happened. […] "It all stemmed from me saying that we hadn't won a game in six weeks on our home floor," Shaw said. "So I just want to set the record straight in terms of that. That's the real truth behind what's taken off and put us all in a bad light."

Original Broadway Production
The original Broadway production of Big River opened on April 25, 1985, at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre. In 1985, it won seven Tony Awards for Best Musical, Best Featured Actor in a Musical, Best Director of a Musical, Best Book, Best Score, Best Scenic Design, and Best Lighting Design. The show ran for a total of 1,005 performances on Broadway.The Story
Twain's timeless classic sweeps us down the mighty Mississippi as the irrepressible Huck Finn helps his friend Jim, a slave, escape to freedom at the mouth of the Ohio River. Their adventures along the way are hilarious, suspenseful and heartwarming, bringing to life your favorite characters from the novel: the Widow Douglas and her stern sister, Miss Watson; the uproarious King and Duke, who may or may not be as harmless as they seem; Huck's partner in crime, Tom Sawyer, and their rowdy gang of pals; Huck's drunken father, the sinister Pap Finn; the lovely Mary Jane Wilkes and her trusting family. Propelled by an award winning score from Roger Miller, the king of country music, this jaunty journey provides a brilliantly theatrical celebration of pure Americana.
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was first published in America in January 1885. According to Ernest Hemingway, it was the "one book" from which "all modern American literature" came, and 20th-century critics and scholars have treated it as one of the greatest American works of art. Of all Mark Twain's novels, it was also the one that sold best at its initial appearance. It is still frequently in the news, as various schools and school systems across the country either ban it from or restore it to their classrooms.

I am so happy I found this book. (It was around 220 pages) I laughed out loud several times as well as teared up a few times too. The characters and their banter were perfect and truly made this book what it was! I can't wait to read more from this author.
Ok, so I love a romance novel that makes me laugh, and this one had me laughing out loud, giggling like I was 12 again and rooting Travis on. My thanks go out to the author, Rachel, you write a great contemporary book and I hope there are many more to follow!
Two brothers....the girl they grew up with....the bet the brothers made as young boys...the misinterpretations of a lifetime...the meddling grandmother...the growing apart of friends...two realizing they are made for each other... All of these combine to make one AWESOME story! Rachel Van Dyken has a way of crafting stories that draw you in and have you rooting for her characters. You begin to care for them right from the start and The Bet is no different! What I loved about these characters was that they are not perfect -- so they seem real. And best of all The Bet had me not only laughing throughout the book it also left me with a couple of tears. I was sad to see this book end -- but happy to learn there will be a second book!
Love, love, loved this book! Such a great story... I want to be Grandma Nadine when I grow up!
I love love this book. funny and so sweet. love Travis and Kacey! Must read!!!
This 217page story a solid read. It was so good I wanted more
I loved this book from start to finish. It was so funny. The characters are so down to earth. I love Rachel's books. Looking forward for the next one.
Loved it! Loving and funny! Great read
Loved the book!,,,
Predictable, but good.
Loved it, it was a great read, kept me interested. I've read three other books from this author and i must say her writing is great.
This could have been a nice little story but the characters were so very immature. I didn't feel they were developed very well. The main character is yet another smart mouthed brat that stomps off at every opportunity and turns a awkward situation into a major traumatic issue. Other reviewers enjoyed the banter but after reading this I felt as though I'd spent several days in a middle school class room.
There is not one thing I actually liked about this book. The characters have no personality or depth, the plot is boring and highly unbelievable, and I cannot believe how poorly written it was. Half of the time I did not even know who was speaking! The story's main characters are 22 and 23, but they act like high school students, so immature the entire time. I am in my early twenties and this is a book written for high school girls wth poor vocabulary and literally skills. Pass on this book! Lucky for me I only paid $0.99 for it!
Laugh, cry and romantic.
Love a book that makes me laugh out loud....I was reading it on my nook during a meeting.....not a good idea, could not wait for the meeting to be over so I could read some more. :-)
I loved this book so much! I couldnt put it down and read it all in one night! I laughed out loud and teared up numerous times!
Great read XOXO
I had thought that after reading her historical books that I knew what I was getting. Seriously....wrong! Rachel is one of those authors who can write contemporary as well as historical, and still make me love the story. I was captivated by the connection between Travis and Kasey right from the beginning. Loved this cute, sweet, and romantic story. I will purchase her contemporary stories again without hesitation. Loved this book!! :)
Definitely a must read. I can't wait to read Jake's story.
This book is quite unique, at least it was for me. It reads like a romantic sit-com. Everything that can go wrong, does. Every opportunity is interrupted. Every comment misinterpreted. Don't get me wrong, it was quite amusing but it felt fiction. Jake and Travis grew up with Kacey. She's the girl next door. They're brothers. As the younger brother, Jake was the best friend to Kacey. They had their moments of more in high school and again with the "incident" but it hadn't worked. Travis is the brother who loves her and can't show it. He chases her in a very little boy way. Spiders, snakes and rocks are all involved. She calls him Satan. But she doesn't always notice how much he's there for her. When Jake needs to smooth things over with the press, he thinks a fake engagement to the one girl he should love is the perfect plan. He's not good enough for her but he thinks he should love her. Problem is that he's an a$$ and she's not what he needs at all. But thinking of his poor sick (NOT) grandmother who's always been there for her, she agrees. Too bad Travis (aka Satan) will also be there. Yeah, these characters do have a childish charm to them and they really are still pretty young but I love them. Of course, Travis is my favorite. (I actually wanted to drop-kick Jake the first time he...never mind). Travis is a sweetie who has been in love with Kacey since he was eight and made a bet with his younger brother. Even though he has a terrible way of showing his feelings, Travis did so many sweet things I was a pile of goo for him. Kacey is struggling with the death of her parents and the "incident". She needs to work through it all and Grandma has a plan. And no one should ever get in the way of Grandma's plans. She's a riot, really. While these characters and this story really felt like a work of fiction, I found is amusing and entertaining. Giggled some and swore once or twice. It's a fun read.
Equates to looking forward to brownies all day and then finding them over baked and salty
I felt for Kacey and felt the emotions she was feeling as I read. I enjoyed this book a lot and couldn't put it down.
This is my first book by this author, and I'm not super impressed unfortunately. I'm giving this 2 out of 5 stars. The writing wasn't my cup of tea, at least for this book. I'll give the author another try because I've heard good things. I think the different POVs didn't help; they kind of jumped all over the place. Honestly most of the time I couldn't tell whose POV we were in, because they all sounded alike. If it's multiple POV, it has to be spot on for me. The characters were pretty immature, and I felt like they were so confused with all the back and forth with their feelings. Decide what you want people! This entire book felt like a soap opera, but not in a good way. It was too over the top dramatic for me. I really didn't like Kacey, or Jake. Travis was okay sometimes. The only character I kind of liked was Grandma Nadine, because she was pretty hilarious.
From child hood crush/love to a bet as little boys on the girl next door to the love the that got away and is back. The story of Travis and Kacey is a master piece . The tension between the two that brings out their love is a wonderful story. This book has will make you feel for the characters, cry and laugh out loud . Also you just gotta love grandma.

For as long as I can remember I've had a dotting of freckles from my cheeks to the bridge of my nose. They're not very noticeable or extreme but they're there. As a makeup enthusiast, I'd often held an obsession to achieve the perfect, flawless complexion. I would use foundation daily and cover up my freckles so I had an entirely blank canvas—no pesky freckles to interfere with my blush or bronzer or anything application, right?
Then, college came.
I became lazier with my makeup routine—it became a matter of applying foundation or getting extra sleep. I'm not a go-to-class-without-makeup kind of gal, I'm more like the go-to-class-with-less-makeup type. One day I decided to nix the foundation and just use some concealer on my face.
I didn't think much of it until a friend of mine commented, "You look different today." I was a bit confused (and somewhat unjustly insulted). "How?" I'd asked, to which she replied: "You have freckles. I can see your freckles; they're so cute."
All of this time I'd never realized people—my friends—didn't even know I had freckles. I'd never realized just how covered up they were. Thus, I stuck to my lack-of-foundation routine on most days but on days where I felt like feeling particularly lovely I'd wear foundation.
Revlon's Nearly Naked foundation was a treasured beauty product—I bought a few in case I ran out—and I'd been using it for months. I'd gone through about three bottles but this one on my vanity began to metaphorically gather dust (I'm a bit of a neat freak sometimes, hence the metaphorically).
Then, my boyfriend came to visit. I'd never really let anyone see me without makeup; I didn't feel the need and I'll admit to having a slight insecurity without it. He was sleeping over and going to sleep with makeup on is a cardinal sin. I hesitantly took it off, foundation and all, mumbling something about not wanting to and not liking not having makeup.
"I don't get why girls do that," he'd said (or something along those lines. I'll paraphrase). "My friend and I were talking about this the other day. He said his girlfriend always does her makeup too and thinks she looks so different and worse without it."
"He said how she looks basically the same and she still looks really beautiful," he'd said something like that. "You look just as pretty, you just don't have that black line (winged eyeliner) and I can see your freckles, I like seeing your freckles they're so cute."
I know, I know—you're not supposed to gain self-acceptance or confident through other people's opinions but I'll admit that I do.
Freckles are interesting things and I'm beginning to love them. There are parts of yourself that you don't like and maybe there are some things you'll never learn to love or accept but there are some things that you will.
I've learned to like my freckles. Not really love them, but like them. They add something. I think. I've learned to be okay with not having a seemingly airbrushed complexion all of the time and I've learned to alter my blush-application techniques to accommodate my face.
The moral of this story is, ladies, if you've got some freckles or something of that sort that you often cover…sometimes, just don't. Sometimes just let your face be free.
I know I'll likely sound hypocritical. I know a lot of people with many more freckles or more visible freckles will see this and roll their eyes just a bit, but…freckles are cute. They're not always meant to be hidden.

"For God speaks first in one way, then in another, and no one perceives it." Job 33:14
God longs to communicate with us. He often speaks subtly, in whispers and very often He uses parables. In order to hear what He is trying to say, we need to pay attention.
Why does the Lord use parables so much to teach us? He wants to see if we are really interested in hearing and trying to understand what He is saying.

Author : Marco Cugnetto and Gaetano Paviglianiti are from Whirlpool
07 November 2016
Among technologies for noise reduction, optimal unbalance management has been identified as one of the key solution to achieve this goal. Improving high-speed unbalance calculation and implementing a system to calculate unbalance mass, mass position, and bending moment the control board can decide when and how to modify the washing machine cycle.The solution was to develop a stand-alone smart system to manage washing machine cycles, get information from accelerometers, communicate with the washing machine control board, and automatically test smart algorithms by using a CompactRIO enhancing testing capabilities.For years, the Whirlpool Corporation has focused on customer satisfaction. The company's 6th Sense technology assures performance and reliability converting customer needs to useful and smart features.The company developed the 6th Sense smart control algorithms using rapid control prototyping systems based on the LabVIEW Real-Time Module and the LabVIEW Simulation Interface Toolkit. The wide use of these systems helped to test new concepts developed with different simulation tools, directly on a real washing machine.According to the development process, it is needed to validate engineered control algorithms firmware on the production control board. In addition, algorithm complexity is growing exponentially due to high quality and new challenging cost targets (energy label, washing performances, low noise, advanced features, and more).A washing machine mathematical model has been developed to evaluate low-speed unbalance. At higher speeds this algorithm is no longer valid because of non-modelised mechanical behaviour. Currently, the structure is oversized with a certain cost increase and without the real unbalance in control. This may still cause noise. By adding sensors to the system, noise has been reduced, implementing a high-speed unbalance detection algorithm and a suitable cycle supervisor.A stand-alone prototype has been built integrating signals from sensors and performing automatic testing without human intervention. Over the ten months of development, critical points and difficulties such as hardware cost versus effective benefits have been faced off. In the short time frame available, the team carried out a feasibility study, a physical study, model integration and optimisation, and hardware and software pre-engineering activities. Due to the very tight algorithm requirements, a never attempted brand new solution has been developed: the CompactRIO system with an FPGA core that can acquire signals from sensors and supervise the cycle's steps by means of the washing machine control board. The team's main challenge was using the standard control board firmware to quickly deliver the innovation to the customers. In particular, CompactRIO has been used to build a stand-alone prototype that integrates the standard washing machine with the new sensors.The team used LabVIEW software to design a system that can acquire signals from sensors, compute algorithm flow, make decisions for washing cycle, and communicate with the production control board. Furthermore, the provided solution can manage a predefined test plan automatically making use of the washing machine's user interface. By means of the test plan, the user can perform what is requested allowing testing of the system by official test centres as a standard washing machine. The prototype can be used for several scoping activities, modular studies, or component tests.The team chose accelerometers to learn acceleration and displacement in some points of the tub. Precise measures are needed to implement an algorithm for high-speed unbalance detection. At high speeds the physics of the system are quite different than at low-speed operating points. The cRIO-9076 has been equipped with:• An NI 9411 digital input module to acquire encoder signals and learn the drum speed• An NI 9401 high-speed digital I/O module to acquire signals from the washing machine control board• two NI 9234 4-channel analogue input modules to acquire signals from two triaxial and two monoaxial accelerometersIn addition, the Compact RIO on-board port has been used: RS232 to acquire feedback and control the washing machine and the USB to connect a memory stick for storing configuration files and logging data. The team designed the architecture over three macro blocks: the FPGA acquires signals from accelerometers at high speeds and generates data to pass to the second block. The second block, developed with the LabVIEW Real-Time Module, contains the algorithm that evaluates signals from the FPGA and the control boards decides when, how, and which steps the washing machine cycle must take. In addition, it logs binary data on the memory stick and streams the data to the next block, which is the host. This block feature is to monitor the washing machine cycle status log data in various formats, decide what to log, and change configuration files present on the memory stick connected to the CompactRIO system. The user can control the host front panel through a web server over the same LAN. Once the stand-alone prototype is ready to start, the core software remains in a listening state until the correct program has been selected trough the washing machine knob. Then the system starts the test plan loaded and performs the required cycles without external operation, providing test data on the memory stick. ResultsThe team combined LabVIEW Real-Time, FPGA, and CompactRIO to design and develop a whole system that helps the company quickly deliver the innovation to production and increases quality targets and reduces cost.

Spelling Bee FAIL [VIDEO]
I still remember my most epic Spelling Bee fail. It haunts me. I thought I was too cool to write the word down before I repeated it back. And that word was "chimney." I said "C-H-I-M-E-N-Y." That's what I get for thinking I could take down the rest of the contestants as a mighty 6th grader.
But at least I heard the word, and it didn't make everyone uncomfortable for way too long.
I almost feel bad for this kid. Almost

Am 4 easy around home. Hot. 34:30 or so- I'm pretty slow these days. Marci was gone all week at girl's camp, so I stayed home with the kids. I'd get the last of them down at 9 or 10 pm, then work late into the night trying to make up my lost hours, so it's been tiring. Last night, I went to bed at 10:30 but only slept 2 hours before being Marci accidentally woke me up as she got in bed. I was up till past 4 am. Even when I have time to sleep, I can't.
Taking the whole family to see Incredibles 2 today. First time our whole family has seen a movie together. I'm even getting popcorn.
Happy Fathers Day, Jon. Hope you all enjoyed the movie.
