INTRODUCTION: Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) symptoms are frequently linked to executive function deficits. There is reason to believe that these deficits may give rise to problems with complex reasoning and problem solving. METHODS: Eighty-six men (N = 45) and women (N = 41) completed a self-report measure to assess ADHD symptoms, along with a complex reasoning task; the Cognitive Reflection Test (CRT). IQ was also tested due to its covariance with reasoning ability. RESULTS: Analysis suggested that all three symptoms of ADHD (inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity) are negatively related to performance on the CRT, however, only inattention significantly contributed to a model that predicted CRT performance. CONCLUSIONS: Of the three core symptoms of ADHD, inattention is the most important for reasoning ability. Results are discussed with reference to an executive function model of ADHD, with particular emphasis on the role of working memory in inattention.

PAGEANT Talks Presents: International Ms. 2015 Melissa Hill
PAGEANT Talks Presents International Ms. 2015 Melissa Hill
Quick Glance:
I'm the reigning International Ms., a new pageant that connects and celebrates elegant and enterprising women. I'm a licensed attorney, an international trade specialist, and a part-time professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City. I also hold a bachelor's degree from the American University and a law degree from the University of Maryland School of Law. I recently relocated from Washington, DC to New York City for personal and professional reasons and enjoy an active social life in Manhattan.
Can you tell us a little more about your career…? You're a lawyer and a professor at FIT?
I have an exciting career that allows for frequent international travel and access to interesting people and organizations. Working in international trade means that I could be meeting with a New York City company in the morning, on the phone with an organization in Latin America in the afternoon, and on a conference call with a Chinese company in the evening. My career keeps me engaged and on my toes morning to night. Teaching an evening international trade focused course at FIT is also a fun extracurricular activity that allows me to further sharpen my expertise while mentoring and inspiring students to pursue a career in international trade.
Why did you decide to compete in a Ms. pageant?
Having spent my 20s buckled down in Washington, DC in law school and building my career, Ms. pageants provided me with an outlet to explore my feminine side while celebrating my professional achievements and commitment to serving my community.
As the inaugural international Ms., what do you think is the relevance of Ms. pageants?
Ms. pageants are wonderful because they celebrate different qualities in their contestants than those highlighted in Miss or Teen pageants. Ms. contestants usually have more work, life, and community service experience to showcase, which can lead to a more interesting, complex, and holistic pageant experience.
What's been your favorite moment as international Ms.?
I really enjoyed the International Ms. Workshop held few months back in the Washington, DC area. It was great to meet many potential contestants and we had my official International Ms. photo shoot following the workshop.
Where do you see international Ms. and the future of Ms. pageants going? What direction can Ms. pageants take to be increasingly relevant?
Ms. pageants will likely become more relevant as stereotypes related to age and beauty are increasingly overcome. Many Ms. contestants are smart, accomplished lawyers, doctors, educators, mothers and pillars of their communities. Ms. pageants give these women an opportunity to flaunt their hard work on stage in a swimsuit, and celebrate both their bodies and accomplishments, without feeling the need to tone down their looks or achievements because they aren't married with children over the age of 30.
Words of advice to the next woman crowned?
Be a bad bitch. Blaze your own trail, be strong and confident in everything you do, but always keep it classy (and glamorous – obvi girl).
Who are your heroes?
I love strong, accomplished, glamorous women who blaze their own trails unapologetically. Some women I admire are Tory Burch, Diane von Furstenberg, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Rihanna (of course).
What should every woman try at least once in her life?
Every woman should compete in a pageant once in her life! It's such a vulnerable, character building experience – it will change you for the better!
Describe yourself in two words?
Powerfully feminine. I thrive on living a contradictory existence. I'm an over 30 ambitious attorney and professor who can hold my own in a swimsuit on stage and glide gracefully in a gown.
What's your favorite place to eat?
My favorite restaurant is Hu Kitchen in New York City. It's a delicious, healthy, organic, paleo restaurant. I like eating a healthy paleo diet (no dairy or carbs) as it keeps my body and mind in top condition.
What item in your closet do you wear the most?
My black suede pointy toe Alice and Olivia heels. They go with absolutely everything and as a vertically challenged 5'5" girl in a sea of skyscrapers and Manhattan models, I need my heels!
What is one item you can't live without?
Tarte lipgloss in "Obvi". Take everything, but leave my lipgloss! And, I mean, the name is so me. 😉

Student Monitoring by Schools, is it Really Necessary or Far Too Controlling?
January 25, 2014
Amanda Marie
Incidents of cyber-bullying among students are not only on the rise, they've become a constant situation that schools, parents, and authorities are dealing with. It all comes down to decisions on how to prevent it, how to stop it if it's happening, and what to do about it after the fact. Schools are also using other methods to monitor student activities such as RFID tags, software, and GPS devices, all of which are in addition to using security cameras. The use of human hall monitors is practically extinct. Any discussion of trusting parents to teach right from wrong is quickly thrown aside, and the use of available technology for schools to rely on is causing increased arguments for both sides of the debate regarding student monitoring. Some parents are in favor of it, many are not. Students claim that they are now in prisons, not schools, and that they are feeling like every move they make is being watched by someone, or something. Teachers and other school staff feel like they need more to depend on, hence the use of any and all available technology. All of this raises the question of how much monitoring is too much?
The Guardian points us to
slang translation software
made by Impero, which assists teachers in monitoring online activity when looking for common slang used by students related to possible cyber-bullying or suicides. The software is currently being used by more than 1,400 schools in the U.K. Impero states that they have worked with the Anti-Bullying Alliance to create the constantly updated dictionary in the software which deals with sexting, suicide, grooming, self-harm, adult content, eating disorders, bullying and trolling, racism and homophobia.
The first use of
RFID Tagging
technology in U.S. schools was in Texas in 2004, to record when students got on and off the bus. It was first implemented in the U.K. in 2007 for attendance tracking, and due to privacy concerns, the trial was stopped. Two colleges in the U.K. used the method for real time tracking, but that was halted in 2013 after receiving a series of Freedom of Information requests. In 2012, one student's refusal to wear the device got her suspended from school which resulted in a
court case
. Both the girl and her parents claimed the RFID policy at the school was a violation of her First Amendment rights. They said her refusal to wear the badge was based on religious beliefs. The student lost her case in court and was forced to attend another high school.
Due to repeated incidents of students skipping class, one school district in California began a testing program with
GPS Devices
. Many parents as well as students were not in favor of using the technology, despite the serious issue of students choosing fun over classes whenever they felt like it. GPS tracking is currently being used in other high schools. Due to the success seen by the use of GPS at some high schools, others are viewing a different reason for wanting schools to use them. Some strong GPS supporters would like to see elementary schools use them as
a means of safety and security
for younger children at school.
Cyber-bullying, truancy, crime, and other student related behaviors are always of great concern for both parents and school officials, but not everyone can agree on the monitoring stances that are being taken by some schools. The debates over monitoring continue to heat up as the students rebel against it, parents remain divided on how to handle it, and schools say they have no choice. Do schools really have other choices, though? Are they providing parents with enough information to alert them to specific issues at a certain school prior to implementing monitoring for all students? Are students spending too much time online, and if so, why aren't parents monitoring their activity more closely? These questions and many more are being discussed non-stop in school districts globally. There seems to be no tell-tale way to distinguish between what's right and wrong in many of these situations.
The use of cell phones at school is a somewhat separate issue and most schools have banned them during class hours so that talking, texting, taking pictures and video recording does not interfere with classes. There have been many student privacy violation cases brought forward as a result of cell phones being used by other students in a spying and vindictive manner, obtaining certain media to post on social sites without permission from the subjects. Students, however, are fighting back by claiming it's a two-sided phone argument and that phone use is advantageous for them to be able to prove when a teacher is
acting inappropriately in a classroom
And so the arguments continue with no end in sight.

Chris and Janae Kerr are the new owners of Genesis Massage and Spa located at 131 Hamilton in Sterling. The Kerrs purchased the previous business, Back in Balance, from Gary and Connie Nelson on April 25.
The modest home converted to an office once served as a law firm and then transformed into Back in Balance about 20 years ago according to Janae Kerr, who said the Nelsons decided to sell the business for personal reasons.
Kerr, who was born and raised in Sterling, left the area after graduating from Sterling High School and Northeastern Junior College. She attended the University of Northern Colorado, where she studied biology before going to work at a dentist office as a dental assistant.
She attended the Healing Arts Institute in Fort Collins for 9 months, taking night classes while working as a dental assistant in the day time. Kerr decided to make the switch from dentistry to massage after finding that dental patients were experiencing high levels of stress during the Great Recession of 2008 -2010.
"We were seeing a lot of patients clenching and grinding their teeth because of stress," Kerr said. "So, the dentist would refer them out for jaw massage to help manage and get the stress level down."
Kerr said that's when she decided to pursue massage therapy. A registered massage therapist in the state of Colorado, Kerr began her massage therapy business from home, where she grew her clientele from mainly friends and family. After having her first child, Kerr decided she needed a new larger space for her business.
"It was time to start growing more clients and get back into the work field after having a baby," Kerr said.
She said one of the more difficult business decisions was coming up with a name that she and husband Chris could agree on. They finally settled on "Genesis Massage and Spa," a name that Kerr says reflects both "new beginnings" and their faith. She said she wants to set an atmosphere of peace, tranquility and a "bit of paradise."
"We are working on getting an aquarium up and going. We want to create a nice soothing place to come in to, a place of healing where you feel safe," Kerr said.
Genesis Massage and Spa has two massage therapists to choose from: Mandy Grippin, who has stayed on at the location as an independent contractor, and Kerr.
The new business is in the market for a licensed esthetician or cosmetologist who would be able to do facials, waxing, body wraps and other spa related work. The spa, Kerr said, is not currently up and going but they're fully ready and open for massage sessions.
"There are all types of massage modalities and techniques," Kerr said. "I like to customize my techniques to fit what the customer needs."
Kerr said she likes to mix several different methods into one massage. She said they use grape seed oil and some olive oil for messages to avoid allergies. Essential oils can also be added into the massage experience.
"For a massage, clients absolutely need to be hydrated," Kerr said, "and they also need to let us know what they need for a massage so I can be prepared. Do they want a full body relaxation or an upper body massage?"
"I do prenatal, deep tissue, Swedish, all of your main massages," Kerr said. She focuses on a specific area of the body that clients request.
Kerr said that Grippin also customizes her methods and is certified in "cupping," a technique using suction and negative pressure to loosen muscles, encourage blood flow, and relax the nervous system. Cupping has been found to be a good treatment for high blood pressure and is often used to relieve back and neck aches, stiff muscles, anxiety, fatigue, migraines, rheumatism and even cellulite.
Services are by appointment only. Kerr is available Monday through Friday during normal business hours and Grippin is available in the evenings for clients who want later hours. Massage sessions are half an hour, hour or 90 minutes in length. Potential clients need to call for pricing options.
Kerr said her business will honor any previous Back in Balance gift certificates or packages from the previous business until Aug. 1.

We survived conference…just barely! We were all sick for much of the time (as our Facebook fans know,) with the stomach bug really getting the best of us! I actually had a cold and the stomach bug, so I guess I win for being the sickest. Or maybe Lucy does because she threw up the most. Despite our health, we were able to enjoy bits and pieces of this once a year gathering.
In case you are wondering, this conference is for New Tribes missionaries in the highlands region of PNG. That means all of the tribal missionaries within this region as well as those living here on the base where we are currently residing who do support work for those in the highlands. Many of the tribal missionaries were able to come out to be with us, but not all, and some were also absent do to being away from PNG for one reason or another.
All the tribal missionaries in attendance gave reports about what is happening in their work, which was exciting to hear about. Some of the folks have been in the "bush" (as they call it here) for just a few years, while others have spent decades there! We really enjoyed hearing from all of them! Some of the "teams" are down to just one family and would love to have new co-workers, so those places could be potential areas for us to work, but we won't decide that for a while. It was nice to see who needs help and who doesn't.
We stayed at a New Tribes facility about 30 min away from where we are that is basically a retreat/conference center. (It is used for a program called Interface that is for college students to get a taste of mission life.) There were a bunch of little one room cabins that all surrounded a communal bathhouse where we all stayed, as well as a dining room and meeting room. I don't have a picture of the dining hall, but let me tell you they did a great job feeding us! It was so nice to not have to worry about cooking while we were there, and the food really was top-notch. They even gave us yummy snacks every day during our break time. We gathered daily in the meeting room to sing, share, and hear from a speaker. Here's what that looked like:
Here's our little cabin:
Our little cabin had 4 bunk beds and a couple of shelves.
We had free time some days between lunch and supper, so we had to find things to do to keep the kids entertained. Naps didn't go so well at the normal time because the cabins were always blazing hot in the afternoons! (Oddly enough the cabins were cold at night) Fortunately things cooled down a bit by 2:00 or 3:00 so Everett would take a later nap, but Lucy just missed hers. One day we filled up these big wash tubs with water and let them splash around a bit when it was hot out.
Look at this cutie! He loved his little tub!
Sorry we don't have more pictures! We were seriously barely making it, so pictures weren't high on the priority list! But we are glad we got to go and that we managed to learn a bit about what NTM is doing in the highlands despite our sickness!

I'm not sure he's even on the board and he barely creeps around on FB, but he is a great buyer. I have sold to him a few times and being that we're in the same state shipping is not an issue. We've even worked some parts trades before and hell, we're in the process of flipping a car together now!

Trail of the Week: Mount Washington near North Bend
Mount Washington
Hike description: Mount Washington is a lot like many of the other peaks in the North Bend area, but it offers some things the more popular trails don't.
Unlike famous thigh-testers such as Mount Si and Mailbox Peak, you can count on smaller crowds. And from the summit, you'll get a better view to the south.
On clear days near the top 4,450-foot Mount Washington, you can capture Mount Rainier and Tacoma in one panoramic picture. And the trail offers plenty more as it climbs the forested slope.
Starting from the trailhead near Interstate 90's Exit 38, hikers use a connector trail and old road to climb up to the Iron Horse State Park Trail. Turn right, and after about 100 yards, find the Mount Washington trail on the left. You'll climb most of the rest of the way on a trail that is often quite rugged.
A cave in a trailside cliff is a favorite haunt for rock climbers. Gear affixed to the rock outlines a challenging route.
As the trail switchbacks its way up the slopes, you'll get several opportunities to see the water from the creek cascading down the hill.
By the end of the second mile, hikers will start to get occasional views of North Bend and the Snoqualmie Valley
A mile more, after crossing the creek, the sounds of I-90 start to fade, but hopefully your energy won't because there is still more climbing to do.
You're entering the final stretch when a sign welcomes you to the Cedar River Municipal Watershed, water source for more than 1.4 million people in the Seattle area.
The view may actually be best just below the summit, where you can take in the vista to the south. But definitely continue another 75 yards up through the trees to the rocky summit and its view that includes the snaking I-90 corridor where you started this trek. A summit register, protected in a large white PVC pipe, is stashed in the rocks.
Directions: From eastbound Interstate 90, take Exit 38 and turn right. After crossing the South Fork Snoqualmie River, turn right to access the trailhead parking lot.
Difficulty rating: 4 (5 is most difficult, 1 is easiest).
Miles round trip: 8.5.
Elevation gain: 3,200 feet.
Best time of the year: April-November.
Map: Green Trail 206: Bandera.
Pass: Discover Pass.
Also: Dogs on leashes are allowed, but owners must clean up after them. Camping and fires are not permitted in the watershed. The trail crosses the Olallie Trail, which is under construction and closed. That project is expected to be complete by the end of 2017. The peak was once known as Profile Mountain. Several geocaches are hidden in the area. For more information. visit geocaching.com.

Browser timeout error while doing Sitecore version upgrade
Currently, we are working on Sitecore version upgrade and during the upgrade process, we got following error:
[Screenshot credits : Varun]
Error was not helpful, we checked Sitecore log on server-side, checked SQL Connection and everything was fine! Then what caused this error? Is our Sitecore upgrade got competed successfully or not?
If you have faced similar error and have same question as we, then this post has answer for you!
We rolled back our application to our base version and ran Sitecore version upgrade again using Firefox, and guess what it worked! 🙂
Yes, we know you are an engineer and you need logical justification for the same. Don't worry we have a logical justification for you — posted on my another blog — Long-running processes and browser timeout issue (mainly Internet Explorer)?
Mainly following lines have answers:
By design, Internet Explorer imposes a time-out limit for the server to return data. The time-out limit is five minutes for versions 4.0 and 4.01 and is 60 minutes for versions 5.x, 6, and 7. As a result, Internet Explorer does not wait endlessly for the server to come back with data when the server has a problem.
Currently, Firefox timeout is determined by the system-level connection establishment timeout [Source : http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.http.connect.timeout]. It was earlier issue in Firefox as well and they fixed it – https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=592284
Happy Sitecore upgrade! 🙂

Making French nervous once more
Of Belarus' five defeats so far in the qualification round of the World Championship, the second defeat (2:4) by the French raises at least some light in the darkness, due to our undeniable good play
By Igor Leshin
Georgy Kondratiev's squad were on form for the first half, clearly fulfilling their coach's instructions. They were reliable in defence, preventing French attacker Franck Ribйry from scoring, and even managed several dangerous attacks — thanks to Alexander Hleb, Timofey Kalachev and Anton Putilo. One corner kick led to central defender Yegor Filipenko sending the ball into Hugo Lloris' net.
In the second half, the French took the initiative, leading to the score being equalised by Franck Ribйry, following the award of a penalty kick. Belarus, however, scored ten minutes later: Kalachev netted the ball from a distance, bringing the score to 2:1.
This was the last goal for Belarus, as the team seemed to lose concentration and conceded three goals, some due to goalie Sergey Veremko's mistakes.
After the game, Mr. Kondratiev noted that he was pleased with aspects of his team's play, but that ridiculous defence mistakes in the second half had let down the side. He stressed that captain Sergey Veremko did not play his best game and nor did the goalkeeper. Belarus will play its final game in this qualifying round on October 11th: an away match in Spain.

About Jamie Crescenzo
In high school, Jamie was a member of the Key Club and a manager for the girls basketball team.
She graduated from Egg Harbor Township High School in 1997 and was a full-time student at ACCC at the time of her death. She was also a shift supervisor at the CVS store in Mays Landing and taught Sunday school at St. Peter's Catholic Church in Pleasantville.
Jamie Crescenzo died February 18, 2000 as the result of an auto accident. Jamie lost control of her car on Ocean Heights Avenue during a snowstorm. She was just 20 years old.
Who We Are
After seeing the local community's response to Jamie's death, Jim and Margaret Crescenzo decided to create a foundation in their daughter's honor. The Remembering Jamie Foundation is a reflection of everything that was important to Jamie in her brief 20 years: Family, Friends, Community and Education. The emphasis of the foundation is to provide support and opportunity to local students and provide safe driving education.
Our History
The foundation has raised and given out thousands in scholarships to ACCC and EHT students ever since Remembering Jamie's first Italian dinner fundraiser. Over 500 people now attend the dinner each year and it has become a annual community tradition that utilizes food donated from family, friends and area businesses. Fundraising expanded into an annual golf tournament that now brings together old friends to play and have fun in the great south jersey September weather.
Remembering Jamie Foundation is a 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization located in Somers Point, New Jersey. Donations to Remembering Jamie Foundation are tax deductible.

Couldn't decide which one I liked more. Love the color but I think the antique looks gives it a little more character.
Monthly Archives: April 2010
Just me and my brother on an early morning shoot. We don't normally get a picture together so this is a big deal and not a bad picture despite not having a ounce of make up on. It was way early for me but we had fun. haha!
Heading back home today and the pollen here has finally caught up with my allergies and I feel terrible. It is not how I'd hope to feel when I have a 10 hour drive ahead of me but I don't have a choice. My Bella and I enjoyed a week hanging out with family doing […]

Some seeds produce rather quickly. Six weeks are long enough for some seeds to be transformed into edible vegetables. Other seeds take six months or longer to mature and be ready for harvest. However, venturing beyond the world of agriculture and into the world of vision and mission ... well, sometimes those who plant are never privileged to see the result of their effort.
Yesterday morning, not long after spending time with my family on both sides of the world, a young African woman entered our compound and sat on our veranda. She looked vaguely familiar, but I wasn't sure I knew her.
She quickly renewed my memory as she spoke in animated tones and terms ... moving back and forth from her chair to the tile on her knees ... alternating between laughter, hugs, tears, and passionate joy, as she expressed her gratitude.
Through a mostly forgotten effort, Christine's life had been touched and changed forever.
Through the generosity, availability, and willingness of people coming from a small agricultural and manufacturing community in western Oklahoma, a relationship with Nyenga Prison began and it continues to this day. Electricity was installed. Blankets were purchased and donated for the inmates. Cups, plates, and bowls were purchased and donated. Medical teams from the same area of Oklahoma came and provided free on-site medical clinics and treatment. Sacks of rice and beans and even eggs were donated. The resident hopelessness occupying the inmates vanished for several hours the day that food, the equivalent of an African Christmas, was provided and served by these same people. Bands performed concerts and smiles invaded faces that were empty upon the team's arrival.
Love was expressed in practical and caring ways. Forgotten inmates were valued and recognized as people with more potential than they could imagine. Those who visited the prison in harmony with Next Generation made as much personal contact with the inmates as possible.
Christine was one of those inmates. A single mother of five, she had become engaged in a physical fight with another woman and landed in this prison. She was, in fact, scheduled to appear in court the next day. A promise was made to come to the prison, with a vehicle the following day, and transport her to the courthouse so that she did not have to walk the five kilometers to appear. The good news of God's grace was shared with her. She was even promised that God would have her case thrown out of court when she appeared.
Recently Christine had been told that the Hunters were back in Uganda. She told herself she had to find a way to discover where we lived. After nearly three years she came to our veranda. She came simply to say, "Thank you." She reminded us that 20,000 Ugandan shillings was given to her in addition to the love and good news shared with her that day back in the prison. She reported that, in fact, her case was thrown out of court the following day. And, she is now prospering by selling clothes in a small shop in the village in which she was originally arrested.
|Some sow, some water, but
GOD is the who makes it grow!
Thank you Oklahoma Medical Team and other members who made your annual trek to Uganda to work with Next Generation Ministries ... to love the poor and needy of this nation. Your contribution is not in vain. Next Generation Ministries is so grateful for the financial resources donors contribute so that our staff and short term missionaries can provide a presence for the practical good news of the love of Jesus Christ for every human being.
Enjoy a bit of Christine's expression of her thankfulness from this video shot by Ezra, the NGM media guy and thank God for producing a significant harvest in Christine. Mukama mulungi! (God is good.)

I saw a post on Reddit, which led me to another site, which led me to another, and so on and so forth until I arrived at a page that suggested everyone should be running HTTPS for everything because it's free everywhere, and mentioned something about AWS, which is where I presently host this blog.
"Bullshit!" I thought. "AWS charge money to use a custom HTTPS certificate, and it would be several thousand percent of my current AWS bill."
It turns out, that's supposedly no longer true. Apparently (and we shall see next month if my AWS bill jumps), Amazon don't charge for certificates if you make them via their certificate manager, because they can just make some magic happen with CloudFront. I guess they only charge if you want to upload your own certificate and key?
So I activated it on both hostnames, and took a look. Uh oh, a bunch of shit isn't loaded because it's forcibly coming in over HTTPS. So I spent the next hour and a bit fixing as many of those as I could find, then I invalidated the cache on CloudFront and so far it looks pretty good.

Darkstorm by M. L. Spencer
|Book Name:
|M. L. Spencer
|Stoneguard Publications
|Paperback / Audiobook / Ebook
|Release Date:
|January 19, 2017
My early impression of Darkstorm, the prequel to the Rhenwars Saga series by M. L. Spencer, was that everyone was a magic user; and that in contradiction to the adage, An armed society is a polite society, this dark fantasy's society of mages was far from polite.
About halfway through, I realized that not everyone was a wizard or sorceress. My mistake could be understood, however, because the cleverly layered plot is hidden by a potential war between two countries ruled by respective conclaves of mages, and all the main characters are magic users who either seek to prevent or benefit from an impending magical cataclysm.
The magic system is based on fields of energy, which coalesce around vortexes. Mages can tap into these fields to heal, harm, or impress people with cool party tricks. Within the two rival countries, Rhen and Caladorn, the ruling hierarchies form the basis of very different cultures, yet there is one commonality: while someone may have an affinity for magic, and might study how it works, they can only obtain the ability to use it through a Transference from a master.
Where Darkstorm shines is in its damaged characters. The most intriguing of them is Merris, an acolyte of Rhen with magical potential, who yearns for a Transference. She comes off as driven and ambitious, though her goals don't become clear until the end. With the expectation of at least one mild romantic thread in epic fantasies, I could never quite pin down her true love—probably because she seemed to find several powerful people attractive. We never really learn who… or what… her True Love is until the end, and it won't be all warm and fuzzy like in The Princess Bride.
Her master in Rhen, Sephana, is having an illicit affair with Braden Reis of Caladorn, who is in Rhen to negotiate peace between their nations. While heroism is in short supply in Darkstorm, Braden most closely fits the more classic mold of hero… if mold is that green fuzzy stuff that grows on my sink basin. He is ready to sacrifice friends and family for the greater moral good. When Merris uncovers a leader of Rhen engaged in mysterious and possibly illicit activities, Braden sends her to Caladorn to warn his young brother Quin.
The brothers share a tragic past, one which has left Quin as a recluse, drowning his sorrows in alcohol and sex. Not a bad life for most, not the best if you are starring in a fantasy story. Nonetheless, of all the characters, I felt he popped off the page the most, with clever dialog and witty banter.
Merris, Braden, Sephana, and Quin must work together to uncover an insidious plot that could mean the genocide of almost everyone in the world. Standing in their way are not just a memorable cast of magic-using villains, but also their own desires and baggage.
M. L. Spencer's writing is vivid and descriptive, painting a picture of exotic cultures through the point of view of visitors to new places. From the early medieval city of Bryn Calazon to the ice fortress of Vintgaard; from the plains and rivers of horse trading tribes and the foreboding Well of Tears; it all feels organic and believable. If there is a shortcoming, it is purely technical: Spencer's use of said-isms sticks out in the dialog exchanges.
Because of this, I cannot in good conscience, give Darkstorm more than an 8. However, like the main characters of the story, I do not have a good conscience, so I will rate it a 9.12 (about the same I give to Bojangles Fried Chicken), and promote M. L. Spencer from Acolyte to Grandmaster.
NOTE: I listened to the audiobook, narrated by Simon Wright (is it me, or are there are a lot of narrators named Simon?). His smooth and evocative Scottish accent carries the narrative, and I confess that the way he pronounced short 'u' sounds had me questioning my sexual orientation.

Realize your Dream of Getting Fuller & Beautiful Cheeks with Cheek Augmentation
Fuller looking cheeks with prominent cheekbones can impress anybody with its appearance. A person with hollow cheeks looks older than normal age; with increasing age, cheeks start losing their fullness. So, if he wants to regain fuller cheeks, cheek augmentation process will realize his dreams. Also known as malar augmentation, it is a surgical procedure that improves contours of cheeks by raising the cheekbones. Primarily, the cosmetic procedure is opted by those people whose cheekbones are out of proportion compared to nose and eyes or by those who need facial reconstruction due to accident.
Prior to the surgery, it is prudent to understand what the surgery entails and thus a visit to cosmetic surgeon is a must. There are several clinics in Dubai like www.dubairhinoplasty.net, which perform the cheek augmentation surgery for domestic as well as international clients both. They follow the standard procedure; meeting with patient once or twice before conducting the surgery. The initial conversation comprises of pros and cons of the surgery, discussion about different shapes and sizes of implants, which implant is suitable for them, risks and possible outcome of the surgery.
Step-by-step Procedure of the surgery
The standard time taken during the surgery varies from 1 hour to 2 hour in which the following steps are involved:
- Patients are given general or local anesthesia
- A small incision usually where cheek meets gums in the back of the mouth is made. Through this incision, right size and shape of the implants are inserted.
- Once implants are inserted successfully, incisions are closed with sutures.
A certain level of risk is also associated with the cheek augmentation surgery. For instance, infection, bleeding, swollen gums, etc., are some of the possible risks associated with the surgery. However, these risks are not life threatening in nature and go away with time.
In order to get the best results, it is advised to seek consultation from professional and trained surgeons who hold specialized degree in performing cheek augmentation surgeries. www.dubairhinoplasty.net houses board certified surgeons who hold record of performing the surgeries successfully at both national and international level. So, seek consultation from them.

Choice of Law
01.01.00It is important not only to ensure that you are litigating in the correct place, but also that you are applying the correct laws. Just because you are litigating a case in Florida, does not necessarily mean that Florida law should be applied to your case.
What is Choice of Law?
Typically, the rights, remedies and standards of conduct applied to a case are determined based upon the substantive law of the jurisdiction where the case is pending. In other words, Florida law will generally be applied to a case being litigated in Florida. However, a party to the proceeding can argue that another jurisdiction's law should be applied. If the argument is raised, then the court should conduct a choice of law analysis.
"Choice of Law" is an ancient discipline with its roots in early Rome. The phrase "Choice of Law" refers to a procedural system for determining which jurisdiction's substantive law will be applied to settle a specific aspect of a legal dispute, or even the entire case.
Why is it important to determine if another jurisdiction's law can be applied to a Florida case?
Just because a case is pending in Florida, does not necessarily mean that Florida law should be applied to determine the rights, remedies and standards of conduct applicable to the case. Another state may have a more generous remedy that would favor the plaintiff or a more reasonable standard of conduct that could be applied to judge a defendant's actions. Accordingly, it is important to evaluate early in every case the law of every jurisdiction which may be applied to any aspect of the case.
Increasingly, choice of law arguments have taken on added importance as global travel, commerce and communication have weakened the defense of personal jurisdiction.
Does this also apply to other countries?
Yes, under certain circumstances the law of another country or U.S. Territory may be applied.
How does a Florida court determine which laws will be applied?
Often one party has already contracted for the application of a specific jurisdiction's law. In that case, the contractual selection should be honored absent extenuating circumstances. In absence of a contractual selection, Florida's choice of law rules must be applied to determine which jurisdiction's substantive law will govern the rights, remedies and standards of conduct at issue in the case.
Florida has a different set of choice of law rules for different types of cases. Because the choice of law analysis depends upon the nature of the case, the first step is to ascertain the nature of the problem involved: e.g. torts, contracts, property, trusts and estates. As an example of the different rules that apply based upon how the case is characterized, a Florida court typically determines which state has the most significant relationship to the occurrence and the parties in order to select which jurisdiction's law applies to a tort case. In contrast, a Florida judge is generally required to ascertain the place where the contract was made in order to determine which jurisdiction's law applies to govern the validity, interpretation, and obligations of the contract. Once the nature of the case is properly characterized, the appropriate choice of law rules can be ascertained and applied.

Ferrari S.p.A. is an Italian athleticss auto maker based in Maranello, Italy. Founded by Enzo Ferrari in 1929, as Scuderia Ferrari, the company sponsored drivers and manufactured race autos before traveling into production of street-legal vehicles as Ferrari S.p.A. in 1947. Throughout its history, the company has been noted for its continued engagement in racing, particularly in Formula One, where it has had great success.
Ferrari has produced a figure of construct autos, such as the Ferrari Mythos. While some of these were rather extremist ( such as the Ferrari Modulo ) and ne'er intended for production, others such as the Ferrari Mythos have shown styling elements which were subsequently incorporated into production theoretical accounts.

The most recent construct auto to be produced by Ferrari themselves was the 2010 Ferrari Millechili.
A figure of one-off particular versions of Ferrari route autos have besides been produced, some of which have been commissioned by affluent proprietors. One of the illustrations is the Ferrari P4/5.
The Particular Projects plan is a coaction by Ferrari with Italian car coachbuilders such as Fioravanti, Pininfarina, and Zagato to construct usage autos utilizing selected Ferrari theoretical accounts as a structural base. The first auto under this plan is the SP1, commissioned by a Nipponese concern executive. The 2nd is the P540 Superfast Aperta, commissioned by an American partisan.
Ferrari has considered doing loanblends. A F430 Spider that runs on ethyl alcohol was displayed at the 2008 Detroit Auto Show. Ferrari has announced that a loanblend will be in production by 2015. At the 2010 Geneva Motor Show, Ferrari unveiled a intercrossed version of their flagship 599. Called the " HY-KERS Concept " , Ferrari 's intercrossed system adds more than 100 HP on top of the 599 Fiorano 's 612 HP.
Ferrari is a myth and a fable in the automotive industry. The Ferrari narrative is one of an astounding and alone worldwide success. An alone 1. Ferrari success can non be measured in footings of grosss and gross revenues, or in footings of market capitalisation. Ferrari ne'er made an IPO and is non even quoted in any stock exchange market. Ferrari success has to be measured merely in footings of Brand Value and Product Value. Probably the Ferrari trade name is worth more than the Google trade name, the Apple trade name, Nike, GE, IBM, BMW, Mercedes, Exxon, Shell, or any other trade name. No other trade name has the temptingness of the Ferrari Brand. Ferrari is known and is extremely valued everyplace in the universe. Yet, Ferrari ne'er spent a penny in advertizement.
Ferrari Passion.
The first Ferrari auto was the 125 S. It was built in1947. Merely 3 of them were produced. None survived to our yearss, yet a 125 S engine is on show in Galleria Ferrari in Maranello, Ferrari dynamic museum. Galleria Ferrari is the Louvre, the Guggenheim, and the Moma of Car Racing. You feel the bang, an overpowering exhilaration and esteem when you are indoors. A alone, astonishing experience. After the 125 S, the Ferrari 166 came, and the races. Formula 1 did non even exist at that clip. Since the beginning Ferrari was making both things it still does today: Car Racing and building extraordinary athleticss autos for demanding auto and velocity lovers. How can you name them merely clients?
This has been the selling scheme of Ferrari. The unaware, uncontrived, unplanned selling scheme of Ferrari. The Passion for velocity, the Passion for engines, the Passion for Car Racing. And this Passion and exhilaration goes through to every rushing athletics lover all around the universe. And this Passion and exhilaration goes through in each Ferrari 360 Modena, in each Ferrari Enzo, in each 575 Maranello, in each F430 you drive or merely meet in the streets. Wining races, losing races, ferociously contending in auto racing has built the trade name.
No history of Ferrari is complete without adverting that Enzo Ferrari worked for Alfa Romeo from 1920 to 1929 ( he wanted to acquire a occupation at Fiat after WWI, but limitations on civilian car traffic in Italy meant the company was n't engaging ) , and that he raced Alfas for another 10 old ages after that. From the clip he was 12, harmonizing to Ferrari: the Man and His Machines, Enzo knew he wanted be a race driver. At Alfa, he achieved that dream, and adopted the cavallino, or tittuping Equus caballus, insignia for his Alfa race auto. In 1929, he left Alfa to get down Scudery Ferrari in Modena, his in private owned Alfa Romeo rushing squad.
The 1930s – Scuderia Ferrari:
In 1929, Enzo Ferrari left Alfa Romeo 's employment to get down his ain racing stable ( scuderia in Italian ) . Scuderia Ferrari did non race autos with the Ferrari name, though the Alfas they used on the path did feature the prancing Equus caballus. Race autos came to the scuderia from Alfa for tuning for about a decennary, and the Ferrari store in Modena built its first auto, the Alfa Romeo 158 Grand Prix race driver, in 1937. In 1938, Alfa took its racing plan in-house, and Enzo Ferrari went with it. After 10 old ages on his ain, though, working for person else proved hard. He left Alfa ( or was dismissed ) for the last clip in 1939.
The 1940s – Ferrari Survives the War:
When Enzo Ferrari left Alfa Romeo, he agreed to non utilize his name in connexion with rushing for four old ages. That was n't so bad ; WWII curtailed rushing for most of those four old ages anyhow. Ferrari moved from Modena to Maranello during the war, where it remains today. In 1945, Ferrari began work on the 12-cylinder engine the company would be celebrated for, and in 1947, Enzo Ferrari drove the first 125 S out of the mill Gatess. Post-war racing was Ferrari 's finest hr on the path. Driver Luigi Chinetti was the first to import Ferrari autos to the U.S. in the late fortiess, including the first main road Ferrari, the 166 Inter.
The 1950s – Race- and Road-Ready:
During the 1950s, Ferrari had legendary applied scientists like Lampredi and Jano on the paysheet, and organic structures designed by the legendary Pinin Farina. Every clip a race auto was improved, the route auto was the beneficiary. In 1951, a Ferrari 375 brought the squad its first triumph — over Alfa Romeo, no lupus erythematosus. The 357 America hit the market in 1953, as did the first in the long line of 250 GTs. Production of all Ferrari autos grew from 70 or 80 a twelvemonth in 1950 to more than 300 by 1960. Enzo suffered a personal calamity in 1956, when his boy Dino, who had helped develop Ferrari 's V6 engine, died of muscular dystrophy at the age of 24.
The 1960s – Turbulent Timess:
The '60s started out reasonably good for Ferrari: Phil Hill won the Formula 1 title in 1961 utilizing a 1.5-liter V6 race auto nicknamed " Dino. " It was the epoch of the sexy, pouncing 250 Testa Rossa. But things got rough for the Prancing Horse, like when Carroll Shelby brought his Cobra to European race paths. After old ages of competition, the Texan beat the Italian in 1964. Ferrari was holding fiscal problems every bit good, but that was nil new. There were negotiations with Ford about a buyout, but Enzo Ferrari alternatively walked out on that trade and sold portion of the company to Fiat in 1969.
The 1970s – What Gas Crisis? :
The V6 engine made it to a production theoretical account in the Dino 246 of the early '70s. In 1972, the company built the Fiorano trial circuit next to the mill. Ferrari introduced the Berlinetta Boxer flat-12 engine to the universe at the 1971 Turin Motor Show in the 365 GT/4 Berlinetta Boxer, and the auto hit salesrooms in 1976. The following twelvemonth, Carozzeria Scaglietti di Modena, Ferrari 's design house, was officially incorporated into the company. Cars were churned out, by Ferrari criterions, with some theoretical accounts being built in the 1000s. But the '70s ended on an uneven note with the debut of the automatic — but still V12 — 400i.
The 1980s – Greed Is Good — for Ferrari:
Let 's skip to 1985, when one of the most iconic of all Ferraris appeared on postings across the universe: the Testarossa ( note that this clip, the theoretical account name is one word, non two ) . The '80s besides saw the exchangeable Mondial and the realisation of Enzo Ferrari 's dream, the F40. It was built to mark the company 's fortieth day of remembrance, with a carbon-fiber organic structure, a elephantine wing, and Kevlar panels. Ferrari 's trade name acknowledgment was at an all-time high, with a ( reproduction ) 1961 250 GT starring in Ferris Bueller 's Day Off. But in 1988, Enzo Ferrari died, at the age of 90. Fiat 's portion of Ferrari rose to 90 % , and boy Piero became VP.
The 1990s to Current – A New Era:
In 1991, Luca di Montezemolo took the reins of the Prancing Horse. The supercar run continued with the F50, but the '90s had a broad offering of smaller engines, like the V8 in the F355 series. There were still V12s to be had, of class, like the Testarossas that continued to be built through the mid-90s. In 2003, Enzo Ferrari got his due, with a 230-mph supercar named for the company 's laminitis. On the path, the hot-blooded Ferrari autos met their lucifer in the cool German drive of Michael Schumacher, who raced Ferraris to seven F1 titles between 1994 and 2004.
SWOT Analysis:
Highly strong trade name image.
Merchandises that are a all right combination of beauty & A ; aesthetics combined withA A A A A A unforgettable public presentation.
The trade name has connected to itself an aura of mystique
Is looked upon as a position symbol
Returns on new challenges on a changeless footing with a caput on attitude.
Innovation & A ; engineering are cardinal drivers behind every merchandise.
A really divine, good taken attention of & A ; satisfied work-force who are proud to be attached with the trade name. This was further expressed publically when Ferrari was voted the " Best Topographic point to Work in Europe 2007aˆ? .
Ferrari 's concern theoretical account, based around low volumes, removes the possibility of using certain technological solutions
That same concern theoretical account besides limits their gross revenues volumes even though a batch more demand is present in the market.
Due to their " waiting list " theoretical account, they lose out on clients to the competition.
A large challenge lying in delay is fuel efficiency & A ; emanations which are turning in importance everyday, thanks to distributing concerns over the environment.
Growth in the planetary market for high-performance super-cars due to turning economic systems & A ; developing states.
Expansion of the trade name through come ining into new & A ; of import automotive markets like India wherein rivals like Porsche have already set up base.
Expansion of client base ( increase entreaty of their merchandises to a more assortment of purchasers ) through adding comfort, capaciousness, baggage infinite, engines that are more user friendly, and so on, while at the same clip keeping traditional Ferrari characteristics-performance, manner, exclusivity. Ferrari has been working this facet for a piece & A ; it has been a cardinal subscriber to their success in the past 15 old ages.
Development of engineering ( for illustration interfacing electronics with mechanical systems ) has opened up new avenues to research for their merchandises.
Boxing i.e. the construct of the auto is another country which still has old ages to research.
Automotive policies being pushed by states & A ; continents all over the universe which are being purely enforced like the emanation norms of 130g/km of CO2 are really hard to maintain up with due to the public presentation oriented nature of the engines built by Ferrari.
Tough competition from other iconic super auto trade names like Lamborghini & A ; Porsche
A viing trade name like Porsche does non follow the same low volumes, high on exclusivity theoretical account which is followed by Ferrari & A ; hence sells a batch more of its merchandises & A ; captures a big ball of the market portion.
Once once more, rivals like Lamborghini & A ; Porsche are spread outing their merchandise scope to high public presentation SUV 's wherein Porsche has already been really successful with its " Cayenne " theoretical account, all over the universe & A ; in peculiar, in India, which has lead to its success in the Indian market. Ferrari has non announced any programs for such a merchandise ( high-performance SUV ) as of yet i.e.-2009.
Selling Mix:
High Performance super autos. Though the company is besides to a great extent into 3rd party selling.
Priced at a premium, they start at monetary values upwards of 175,000 $ US. Vintage Ferrari autos are besides a great investing as Vintage Ferraris appreciate in value & A ; are known to be 1000000s of US Dollars.
The strongest publicity for Ferrari is in its selling. It already enjoys huge consciousness throughout the universe ; even in topographic points it does n't make any publicity. To the extent that in India, wherein the trade name is non even present as of yet, it is really good known. Furthermore, the selling is done on a royalty & A ; license footing to other trade names ( E.g. Puma selling Ferrari-Puma branded places ) .
Topographic point
It has its sole Ferrari franchises spread over 52 states as of yet with programs to spread out it 's franchises to other states & A ; markets.
A really divine, good taken attention of & A ; satisfied work-force who are proud to be attached with the trade name is what Ferrari offers its " people " . With mills, production units & A ; workplaces built around the safety & A ; wellness of its workers, Ferrari was voted the " Best Topographic point to Work in Europe 2007aˆ? .
They are reliant to a great extent into R & A ; D, invention & A ; remaining at the cutting border of engineering. Therefore, their procedure is in a changeless province of flux which is everlastingly altering & As ; accommodating with what the environment around them demands.
Physical Evidence
Dealerships across the Earth showcasing their autos along with ware offering the client a sofa kind of experience instead than that of a salesroom. This is done maintaining in head the life style of their possible clients

The Best Ways to Restore Concrete Floors
Structure proprietors have actually desired various kinds of flooring over the concrete to offer a constructing a warmer, as well as cleaner feeling. In commercial centers, they have actually made use of ceramic tile, rolled linoleum, flooring paint, or epoxy to offer a constructing a much more preferable look, as well as make it less complicated to tidy compared to bare concrete.
Because very early in the twentieth century, the researcher explored with various make-ups to come up with flooring items that would certainly last for a longer duration of time. Some ceramic tile items were made up of an asphalt base. Do not obtain me incorrect, it was an excellent item, and also after 40 years in the service, I've seen some asbestos ceramic tile that goes back at the very least 60 years, as well as is still in good problem.
What Should I Talk to?
You could employ a really trustworthy Concrete Grinding as well as Polishing specialist, that just does floorings, for a great deal much less cash compared to you would certainly anticipate. They could grind, gloss, seal, color, or use among numerous items to your flooring for the very same or much less cash compared to re-applying floor tile which does not have the exact same resiliency, as well as durability as the previous asbestos ceramic tile items.
Or you could go with a colored Flooring that will certainly last longer than all of us. Some could recommend items that you would certainly call flooring paint or epoxy. Just what are the benefits or drawbacks of that kind of item?
Do not anticipate the specialist to come back a week after your stunning flooring was redone to deal with tire marks in your store. If you desire a Flooring that is much less delicate, after that, you must most likely think about the application of passing through color, complied with by sealant to provide you an appealing flooring coating which is going to be much less prone to altering as well as damaging. Okay, so currently the inquiries. Are these kinds of flooring surfaces unsafe? The most effective means to describe that is to clarify the grinding and also brightening procedure.

By Richard White, September 4, 2013
When walking to yoga recently, I passed by the Bowview Pool in West Hillhurst. People of all ages were enjoying the water and sunning themselves along the grassy edges. I was immediately struck by how this scene resembled that of a pool at a swanky hotel in some Caribbean or Mediterranean hotel (ok, so I have a good imagination).
As I continued walking, I began to think of other fun things nearby that would be touristy. Milkshakes and ice cream are something that I associate with vacations. Dairy Lane, located just a few blocks away on 19th street has been serving up old fashion milkshakes for over 60 years. Or I could wander a bit further to Amato Gelato on Kensington Road where I'd have a choice of over 72 different gelato flavours.
Sure, I couldn't walk a white sand beach in the morning or evening, but I could walk the nearby Bow River with its crystal clear, every changing turquoise water. In the evening, I could walk along the Bow River Bluff, which offers spectacular views of the river valley and a Downtown skyline that glitters like gold at sunset. It doesn't get more romantic than that. Looking for a hike instead of a walk, the Douglas Fir Trail is an authentic forest trek in the middle of the city. Yes there are no banana boats or skidoos, but I could go rafting, canoeing or kayaking on the river – there is a rental shop no far away. I could easily have a river adventure everyday for a week.
And maybe there isn't a hotel spa nearby, but there is the lovely Bodhi Tree yoga studio that certainly is spa-like. Tennis, a typical tropical vacation activity, is available at the West Hillhurst Recreation Centre. Deep-sea fishing, common another hotspot vacation activity can be replaced by fly-fishing in the Bow River (one of the best fly-fishing rivers in the world).
Want to sit and relax with an espresso or latte? Central Blends not only serves up some of the best coffee in the city, but their morning muffins are to die for. Try the cranberry oatmeal, my favourite.
If seeking some shopping and a little bartering with the locals, the Sunday morning flea market at the Hillhurst community centre is just the ticket.
So who needs Bermuda, Barbados or Bahamas when you have so many vacation-like things to see and do in and around the Bowview Pool. If only our summers came earlier and lasted longer.

Ghost related horror films are a strange sort of movie. We normally get the same tropes in each film. The banging doors, the eerie noises, the jump scares. Some do it well ('Poltergeist'), some not so much ('The Haunting' remake). I sat down recently to watch two of the newer installments, one that has been getting a lot of praise, and one that had a trailer that looked so stupid, I figured it might be fun for a few laughs.
So let's get started with 'The Innkeepers'.
This is the latest full length feature from Ti West (House of the Devil, V/H/S). Though I was not the biggest fan of 'HOTD', I appreciated the techniques it used, and I was a fan of the way West was able to build tension without the need for constant dialogue or CGI demons flying at the screen. So when I heard that 'The Innkeepers' was really good, and a return of the actual scary 'ghost film', I figured that it was worth to take a look at.
The story is simple. Two desk clerks, Claire and Luke, are tasked with working the last weekend at a soon-to-be closed Inn called The Yankee Peddler. The Inn is reportedly haunted by a vengeful spirit who died in the building, and whose body was found in the cellar. They only have a few customers left including a mother and her young son, an aging actress, and an old man who had at one point in his life spent his honeymoon there.
Claire and Luke could be best described as a couple of hipsters who were up to no good, until some ghosts started making trouble in their neighborhood. They both decide that since the inn is practically empty, that they will use this last weekend as a chance to do a little paranormal investigating. Slowly, and I mean SLOWLY, we start getting strange noises, soon the piano is playing by itself, and the sense of dread falls over the inn. One night while up in bed, a terrifying ghost is propped up in next to Claire, and we know she IS afraid of them ghosts. The actress, who is also a new age medium, warns Claire of the spirits in the building, and mostly to not go into the basement. Does she heed this warning? Does any white person in a horror movie heed this warning?
Essentially, that is really all there is to say about what the movie's plot is. So how does it stack up? Unfortunately, I would put this in the medium level of Good to Bad Ghost Films, or GTBGF for short. West again shows his ability to build suspense, and it is definitely effective. The scenes in the cellar are great, and genuinely scary, including a horrifying sequence in which Claire is able to make contact with the ghost. The film relies very little (if any) on CGI, and most of the tension is built by the excellent sound design and editing.
Your opinion on the film will come down to two simple details. One; if you have the patience to wait a very long time until anything happens. As I've stated in previous reviews, I like a slow-burn film, however this film's burn feels like it is smoldering. It takes a long time until anything really scary happens, and some scenes linger on for minutes with no payoff. Sometimes I wanted to scream 'DO SOMETHING' at the television, when we watched for what felt like a very long time as someone listened to static on an EVP recorder. The film is split up into chapters, which I didn't care for as a stylistic choice. I think this is an instance as something that started almost as a stage play, and then was turned into a film. It also ends with one of the most useless epilogues in history, only to provide a cheap last frame scare, and it doesn't work.
The second factor in your enjoyment/dislike of this film will come down to if you like the central characters. As I said, they are most definitely written to be hipsters, right down to the skinny jeans and ironic 'aren't ghosts stupid? Let's go look for them' attitude. I never felt invested in the characters, I didn't like them, and they were honestly kind of boring. The actors do a fine job with what they have to work with, but I think the essential problem with the movie is that the character writing isn't that good. I never feel like we should be rooting for these people, and more than anything, they are just annoying and pretentious. If this was a purposeful move on the part of West then he did a good job, but I think he likes these characters and the hopes were that we would associate with them as well. It feels like elitism and if you don't get them, it is your fault for not liking the film and something like that tends to rub me the wrong way.
Grave Encounters
When I first saw the trailer for 'Ghost Encounters', I believe my first reaction was 'You have got to be kidding me'. Another found-footage film, this one based off of the recent surge of ghost-hunting shows. The ghosts in the trailer had a definite CGI twinge to their faces, which is something that is a big no-no in my book, and even more so when it comes to CGI ghosts.
So I was pleasantly surprised to find out that this is actually a pretty good little horror flick. I would go as far as to put it on the 'Good' side of the GTBGF scale. It is always nice to have something come out of nowhere and then to actually enjoy it.
The conceit of the film is that a new paranormal investigation show called Grave Encounters, had gone to an abandoned sanitarium and never returned. Only their footage was found. A gaping flaw in the basic premise is that most avid film fans will notice immediately that the general idea that this was found footage was ridiculous as the footage was obviously edited with tracking shots, voiceovers, and a more. Though this is definitely a flaw that distracts from the idea of found footage, it was for me, quickly forgivable, as the strength of the movie is that it is a lot of fun.
While in less capable hands, this could have been just the basic bump-in-the-night sort of movie, 'Grave Encounters' actually took the time to understand it's source material. If I were to watch the simulated opening credits of the film, I would honestly not be able to tell the difference between this and a show like Ghost Adventures or Paranormal State. It is an amalgamation of these types of shows. The lead investigator is pretty much the doppelganger of Zak Bagans with his coifed hair and frat boy attitude. All the staples of ghost-hunting reality television are present in this film, down to the ridiculous lingo. The film works automatically as parody because we know these clichés; we recognize the staples of the setup. They even are smart enough to include the testimonials of the locals and the caretakers (including a hilarious scene with a paid off groundskeeper), right down to the 'medium' who accompanies the team.
What works so well is that we are accustomed to this setting. On the 'reality' shows, we get the sounds, the floating orbs, the strange voice in the static, or someone yelling that something pushed them or it got cold. But we never see anything on those shows, other than some trumped up un-explanation of the paranormal. With 'Grave Encounters' we get a look at what would happen if a place was really haunted, what if it went beyond entertainment, and what if the ghosts didn't appreciate being yelled at by a dude in a skull t-shirt.
Once the paranormal stuff starts early on in this film, it does not let up until the final seconds. The old hospital is the perfect setting as they already have an air of horror attached to them, and the film uses that to its full advantage. The movie has a lot of intentional humor in it, but at the same time doesn't forget it is supposed to be scary. Though I'm not a fan of what the ghosts look like, I will admit that the movie got me a couple of times, and I was pretty creeped out toward the end. Moreover, this movie is a heck of a lot of fun. Sure, it is kind of silly in a way, but it would be the perfect film for a late night viewing with a few friends, just to watch them jump and then laugh.
It is nice to see the film use and understand its premise in such a way to make it feel similar and fresh at the same time. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, which again was a complete surprise to me, and if you are annoyed at these types of shows, you will definitely get your chance to see how they would react to the real version of the situation they attest to seek out each week.

Posted on 7/31/2017This is the best concealer I have ever used. I'm a light medium and the Ginger shade blends into my skin flawlessly. I use this to make my acne scarring invisible and it works like magic. I no longer use foundation or tinted moisturizer because this blends into my skin so well. I do brush Laura Mercier setting powder over it and it lasts all day. Isn't drying for my combo skin. I can't live without this now.

Billikens pull off the improbable with comeback win over NC State
The Saint Louis Billikens did not lead in the final 35 minutes of regulation. They trailed by 16 with 8:13 left. For the night, they missed 14 of their 26 free throws.
And they won.
Yes, their 83-80 overtime victory over North Carolina State in the NCAA Tournament on Thursday night was that unlikely. March Madness, indeed.
Who else, but Jett?
Billikens Senior guard Jordair Jett was so limited in the first half that TNT's announcers wondered if he was injured. Jett missed all three of his shots in the first half and scored all of one point.
But in the late going, you certainly could not tell he was playing with a sore groin. Doing everything but making his free throws (4 for 10), Jett scored 17 points in the second half to lead the Billikens' comeback. Doing what he does best — driving to his left — Jett tied the game at 70 with 18.8 seconds left when he drove past one NC State player and through two others. He was fouled but, alas, missed the free throw.
In a post-game TV interview, Jett did not deny that his ailing leg was bothering him. But he made it clear injury wasn't going to stop him. "I'm a warrior," he said. The Wolfpack would not disagree.
Who else but Jett? Try Rob Loe
When 6-11 senior Rob Loe made three 3-pointers barely three minutes into the game, it looked like it would be his night as well as the Billikens'. But the 9-6 lead he gave SLU would be their last until the overtime, and he would not score again for the rest of the half or the first 10 minutes of the second half.
Then he got busy. With the TV cameras frequently finding his cheering parents visiting from their home in New Zealand, Loe scored 13 points the rest of the way. One basket came on a baseline drive he finished with a roaring two-handed dunk that rarely, if ever, was seen out of the big man from Auckland.
Even more impressive than his scoring was his rebounding. Loe picked a fine time to get his career-high in that department, pulling down 14 on the defensive end to finish with 15. His previous best was 11.
Who else but Jett? Try Jim Crews
SLU's comeback was triggered by a strategy that either was implemented by coach Jim Crews or endorsed by him. The plan was simple: Crews called on the Billikens to foul quickly whenever they were unable to generate a turnover out of their full-court press. Their relentless pressure generated its share of turnovers but extending the game by fouling proved to be key.
NC State shot 21 free throws in the final 3:09 — and missed 12. Three times in the final minute the Wolfpack, in the double bonus, missed the second attempt. The Billikens scored after each one.
For the game, NC State out shot SLU from the line, but not by enough. The Wolfpack made 20 of 37, the Billikens 12 of 26. It was the only game this season that SLU failed to make half of its free throws.
Yet they still moved on to the next round of March Madness.

Spinach may not be everybody's favorite leafy green, but it is a vegetable that is high in essential vitamins and nutrients, and is an optimal menu choice for weight loss. The best tasting spinach recipes are the ones that use fresh spinach leaves, since the natural flavors of the spinach are preserved. If you have never cooked raw spinach before, be prepared to be surprised by how much the spinach leaves shrink and reduce once they are fully cooked.
Remove the spinach leaves from the bag or package and rinse under cold water. As with all types of leafy produce, spinach leaves can contain grits of sand or dirt, so you want your spinach leaves to be as clean as possible. Wash the spinach leaves in a colander so that you do not lose any down the drain in your sink.
Put your saute pan onto the stovetop burner and set the temperature to medium-high. Add the extra virgin olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan. You may have to twist the pan around with your hand in order to make sure that the bottom is coated evenly.
Add the chopped garlic to the pan and saute with your spatula. Keep moving the garlic around in the pan so that it doesn't burn. You do not want the garlic to brown or else it changes the flavor and texture of the garlic.
Place the spinach leaves into the pan. Mix it around so that the spinach is coated with the olive oil and fresh garlic. Add the salt, pepper and pinch of red cayenne pepper, and continue to toss around the leaves. You will notice that as the spinach leaves heat up, they start to wilt.
Keep your eye on the spinach as it cooks. Spinach goes from raw to wilted in a matter of minutes, so it is not wise to leave the spinach unattended.
Remove the spinach from the heat once all of the leaves are wilted. Plate the spinach so that it does not continue cooking in the hot pan.
It is easy to embellish your delicious spinach with other ingredients. For instance, meat lovers can add fresh bacon pieces to the pan to cook with the garlic and give the spinach a smokey flavor. Or you might want to drizzle freshly squeezed lemon juice on top of the cooked spinach.
