Emily and Meeko's Sunny First Apartment
Name: Emily Baker & Meeko Mendez
Location: North Beach, San Francisco
Size: 850 square feet
Years lived in: almost 1 year
Emily and Meeko, just married last October, moved into their first apartment together in North Beach about a year ago. As exciting as that was, combining lives, stuff and styles into a small apartment proved to be challenging as both were moving from much larger spaces they shared with roommates. Emily and Meeko also both work from home so the space had to not only reflect their combined likes, but also be functional and organized.
Granted, there are no complaints since their North Beach apartment, walking distance from Washington Square, is a real charmer. The bright white walls, period details and abundance of light are the perfect backdrop for Emily's favorite color — yellow. Still, Emily's style tends toward the more feminine vintage-y side while Meeko prefers stark modernism. They've managed to create a space that feels entirely like their home and will continue to evolve with them.
Still, Emily was able to have free reign over her workspace. When she's not working at her day job, she runs Frenchie & Flea, a one-stop resource for creative paper goods, photo styling and special events design, and its companion etsy shop. She desperately needed a work space that was inspiring and organized and she created just that. Her storage area uses white shelving and boxes so that her inspiration board can shine through.
AT Survey:
Inspiration: I read a lot of blogs and constantly find inspiration for our home on them. I have collected inspiring images over the years and love finding creative ways to style our apartment. I have been known to reorganize and re-style wherever I've lived OFTEN...I get antsy and definitely don't think your home should be stagnant. I love to change things around, move pictures from wall to wall, re-organize my book shelves, and...well...I'm obsessed with decorative pillows. I am pretty sure that's the one thing Meeko hates most about my home-style. When I first moved in, there were decorative pillows overflowing the sofas, chairs, and bed. I guess you can say I've learned how to edit and scale back from him.
Favorite Element: I LOVE our kitchen. It's my favorite place to be and we love to cook dinner together in there. My FAVORITE wedding gift was my yellow KitchenAid mixer, and it is a focal point in our space. Yellow, white and grey are my favorite colors, and luckily, our kitchen was an amazing bright white palette to build on. We get a ton of light from the huge windows in our kitchen, and its just the most inviting room in our house (in my opinion).
Biggest Challenge: Nesting as newlyweds can be tough. Downsizing from bigger places with roommates, to a super small space is hard enough, and the fact that we're both bringing different styles, habits, and likes/dislikes to the table makes finding a cohesive "look" a process. I love color and pattern, vintage finds, and am definitely on the more feminine side in terms of design aesthetic, and Meeko is a lover of all things modern, simple, clean and stark. If he had is way, we would live in a glass box with 2 pieces of furniture. It took us an entire year to really define our style as a couple, as well as find functional ways to cohabitate in a tiny apartment with zero storage.
What Friends Say: Our friends seem to love our place. Although its not the best layout for entertaining or hosting dinner parties, we do have a lot of guests come to stay with us. Our location is prime...in the heart of North Beach with a view of Washington Square Park...you can't beat it. We love having a place where people enjoy visiting!
Biggest Embarrassment: Until recently, it was the kitchen nook. That space served as our storage area, junk catchall, recycling and donation collection center, AND my craft area. It was BAD, especially because it was open to the kitchen and everyone could see it. We finally motivated to overhaul the nook and make it a functional and organized work/craft area for me that doubles as the eat in nook it's supposed to be.
Proudest DIY: Probably my craft area overhaul. I needed a workspace for Frenchie & Flea that was functional, inspiring and organized. With small space and no storage, I had to find shelving that doubled as a work table, storage solutions that were pleasing to the eye (since this IS our kitchen, after all), and I wanted everything to reflect my style and brand. All of the storage boxes are from The Container Store and the shelf is from IKEA. The vintage card table and folding chairs (from Alameda Antiques & Collectibles) easily folds up if I need extra work space, but also serves as my sewing table and our dining table. It was all done for under $350.
Biggest Indulgence: We haven't really indulged in anything crazy expensive, but I guess our couch and chair are the biggest purchase we've made. They were from Macy's and we bought them during the semi-annual furniture sale. It was difficult to find a sofa that would fit in such a small living space...but we managed and we love the modern-retro style of the couches. Plus, they have enough space underneath them for extra storage! BONUS!
Best advice: Living in a small space requires a lot of organization. It took me a really long time to realize that the time and effort I put into keeping our home organized would help to create an environment that was efficient, highly functional and relaxing. You have to get creative with your furniture and storage solutions, and also buy pieces that are proportional in scale to the size of your home. Our living room would look stuffed and crowded if we had an over-sized sofa and a giant coffee table, and our bathroom, well its miniature, so organizing all of my products and tools was essential in that space as well. On another note, merging styles and tastes as newlyweds can be a struggle but it can also be really fun. We had 2 huge yard sales and donated a ton of stuff when we moved in together to create new space to fill as a couple. Furniture we both didn't love, we sold on Craigslist and saved the money to put towards a new piece of furniture we would pick out together. It's all about compromise...I know Meeko hates florals, so I used a shower curtain that was more graphic than girly, and replaced my Anthropologie bedding with more neutral and modern prints and colors from West Elm. It's been a work in progress, but we're finally at a point where our apartment reflects both of us and is a place we love to spend time in.
Dream source: West Elm, Anthropologie and flea markets are my favorite sources for furniture and decor. I also love buying art and prints on Etsy. Supporting emerging or undiscovered artists is important to me, as a designer, and it's generally affordable. Someday I hope we can purchase some fantastic original artwork, but until then, I love all of our art prints we've collected from places like Renegade Craft Fair and Etsy!

Celebrity news News & Gossip 0 Eight months pregnant actress dances around a pole as part of a comedy sketch for website, FunnyOrDie She may be due to give birth next month, but that doesn't seem to trouble actress and comedienne Christina Applegate as she busts some impressive moves around a pole as part of a spoof video. The heavily pregnant star, 39, is seen bopping around a pole with her fellow dancers, who are sporting fake baby bumps, for the US website FunnyOrDie. Showing off her blooming pregnancy body, Christina plays the character 'Roxie Fedaro' who is a pregnant lap dancer promoting a prenatal pole dancing DVD. The hilarious mock video sees Christina declaring, "Just because you put on an extra 50lbs, doesn't mean you're not hot!" Christina's pregnancy comes two years after the actress was diagnosed with breast cancer. She went on to have a double mastectomy and made a full recovery. Christina announced her baby news in July and this will be the first child for her and her partner Martyn LeNoble. Although it's not recommended that pregnant mums-to-be take up pole dancing during their pregnancy, there are lots of other ways to keep active and fit whilst expecting.

We often associate an attractive smile with beautiful teeth, however, a truly balanced smile must also include healthy gums.
Gum disease, or periodontitis, is caused by microorganisms which flourish on tooth surfaces, and affects millions of people. These microorganisms cause inflammation of the gum tissue and slowly erode bone structure around the roots of teeth. Ultimately, gum disease can lead to pain and tooth loss!
Signs of gum disease may include:
- Bleeding gums while brushing or flossing
- Redness and/or swelling of gum tissue
- Bad breath
- Receding gums
- Loose teeth

Wind company fined for environmental offences
Credit: By DCN News Services | Daily Commercial News | Jan 11, 2016 | dailycommercialnews.com ~~
CHATHAM-KENT, ONT.—A company that develops renewable energy projects has been fined $11,000 for two environmental offences, including failing to comply with the Renewable Energy Approval (REA) by installing a transformer substation.
Gesner Wind Energy Project operator, Saturn Power Inc., pleaded guilty to the two offences, which also included failing to submit an annual bird and bat monitoring report on time, contrary to the Environmental Protection Act (EPA), explains a December 2015 release from Ontario's ministry of the environment.
Operating from New Hamburg, Ont. the company works on renewable energy projects and also operates a wind energy project, the Gesner wind farm, in Muirkirk, Ont.
According to the ministry, the REA was issued for the Gesner wind farm, where, during construction, it was discovered that the project needed construction of a transformer substation, which the REA did not include approval for.
"Approval of a transformer substation is significant because of the potential for transformer substations to produce noise," explains a release. "The company constructed the substation without seeking an amendment to the REA."
The approval also requires the company to conduct a monitoring program to assess the impact of the turbines on birds and bats. Reports are to be provided to the ministry, but in this instance were not submitted on time.
On top of the $11,000 fine, there is a victim fine surcharge of $2,750. The company was given three months to pay the fine.

Does airport express have digital input?
Does the airport express have a digital input as well as analogue input? I want to connect to my digital surround sound system with optical cable, is this possible with airport express or will i need to buy apple tv unit? Cheers guys
- Asked by fn
AirPort Express
Product No Longer Available
1 Answer from the Community
You can connect either analogue miniature jack, or an optical cable. The optical plug to the AE must be the mini Toslink size and the end for your stereo the normal Toslink size, or whatever your system requires. The design of the AE jack is ingenious, in that it accepts either the analogue or digital plug and both work fine, I have tried it....good luck.

Bicycles are a vehicle for change. All year long, we strengthen our community and protect our environment by making used bikes accessible to people of all ages, abilities, and incomes. Our earn-a-bike programs help low-income youth and adults become self-sufficient, healthy, and safe.
Bicycles should be accessible to everyone. Our professional retail bike shop sells refurbished bicycles at a range of reasonable prices and offers a full menu of services.
It takes a community to do what we do. Bicycles and parts are donated from individuals, institutions and supporting businesses. Churches, businesses, schools, and neighborhood groups hold bike collections to help collect bikes. Volunteers help us recycle, fix up program bikes, and coordinate events.Our Commitment to the Environment:
We recycle what we can't use. This adds up to about 25 tons of metal each year, making us the largest bicycle recycling organization in the US.
Most of our staff ride a bike to work. Over 90% of our staff commute via bike daily, proving that we walk our walk and ride our ride!
The office does its part, too. We print on used paper when possible and use an environmentally responsible printer Natural Press for the printing of envelopes and office stationary.

Tension by Nir Arieli, a photographer based in New York, New York, captures the fine balance of a dancer's body. Although a dancer often finds him- or herself in graceful movements and full flexions, there is a tension that is ever-present as well, hence the title of the photo series. Whether it is the clenching of hands or the constriction of the belly, as nimble as the limbs are, they are just as taut.
Beautifully surreal, Tension by Nir Arieli is a stunning tribute to the possibilities of a dancer's body. Interestingly, Arieli writes, "In my project I function as a visual choreographer, making up a certain movement language that is the outcome of a verbal dialogue between the photographed dancer and I. On my part, it is a language born of a screech, it is uncomfortably beautiful."

The budget approved last week sets discretionary spending at $986 B, with defense spending $518 B of that, leaving $468 B for civilian programs (which includes spending on science).
One interesting quote from the article:
This is the tragedy in some countries that government spend very low upon science and research. The figures and statistics presented by you are very helpful for people to know about science budget. Now buy research papers on line Resources and prepare such statistics and figures without any difficulty.

Amsterdam designer Quintus Kropholler designed the 'Black Gold' collection, a line of homeware made from asphalt and concrete. The line is comprised of two vases, a side table, a bookstand, small tray, pyramid and bench prototype.
Asphalt, a form of petroleum, is combined with rock fragments to create tarmac, a material most frequently used for roads and pavement. Kropholler explains, "Asphalt is a ubiquitous material in our urban fabric. It is everywhere, but since it is only regarded in purely functional terms its potential remains unseen."
Kropholler's collection urges viewers to take a second look; where we once saw only utility, we might now see beauty. Kropholler cast each object in steel moulds heated to 180 degrees centigrade. He then pressed and binded the material into its final form.

A furious county MP has declared local NHS managers 'not fit for purpose' and written to the Health Secretary.
Chorley MP Lindsay Hoyle has written to Health Secretary Jeremy Hunt saying that people "have no confidence" in Chorley and South Ribble Clinical Commissioning Group and Lancashire Teaching Hospitals over their handling of the closure of Chorley's A&E department.
Fears for patients as doctors pull out of urgent care centre
It comes as Mr Hoyle and Chorley Council leader Alistair Bradley were barred from attending meetings of the joint System Resilience Group, which discusses the future of the department.
Chorley and South Ribble Hospital's A&E department closed in April.
Mr Hoyle said: "It is little wonder that people have no confidence that our A&E at Chorley will reopen and if we are not allowed to attend meetings where decisions are made.

"I have contacted the Secretary of State to outline my belief that the organisations in charge of our health services are not fit for purpose."
An SRG spokesman said they were committed to transparency.
Cllr Bradley added: "What do our health professionals have to hide? Why do they want to hold key decision making meetings behind closed doors?"
A spokesman for SRG said: "The SRG has been meeting weekly since the temporary closure of the emergency department at Chorley Hospital in April to review the options for reopening the department in a safe and sustainable way.
"While these meetings are not held in public, we are committed to maintaining transparency around these discussions and the minutes from the meetings are available to the public via the Chorley and South Ribble Clinical Commissioning Group and Greater Preston Clinical Commissioning Group websites."

So me heARRties, the latest season of ARR is undARRway, with a new group tagline courtesy of last seasons stunty champ (and overall ARR champ too!) Justicium! And it's very much in the cheeky spirit of ARR (i'll leave you all to check the rough translation of the french)
What can we expect this season? A lot of the big names who ran stunty sprints last season will no longer be posting sprints this one if their box challenge is done, but I suspect we'll see some moARR coaches making big Striders (
) in at least one racial category
I'd also like to remind evARRybody that majARRs are now open to box AND ranked, so we can invade TWO ships! MoARR chances to chef/saw/embarrass people! wheeeee!
And on the topic of mixed tournaments, there will need to be a group discussion on the status of the ARR brawl... Personally, I think insta-start brawls could be a good thing for us - we can simply designate any one+ brawl date and INVADE for as many brawls as we can get
However, it will hurt the "stunty +mass inducements" game many of our oldARR but smallARR teams relied on :'(
Last seasons Awarrds:
So wif box trophy now in full swing, there's been lots and lots of new entrants in the ARR ARRms race! Glad to have you on board fellow travellARRs of the box...
43 Completed sprints, a marked increase!
Let's get down to the awARRds!
trophy justighelf
, probably didn't expect so many wins, probably doesn't care! A couple of st4 monsters at points, and the care of one of the best coaches in the box sees high elves stroll to a title. 56pts (13/1/2)
Trophy Justhalfing
, stagger into second, bellies full, having feasted on the box. An incredible performance, only bettered by his own high elves. Halfling insanity! 49tps (10/3/3)
A bit previous
complete ARR top 3. A solid sprint that in other seasons would probably be enough to challenge for 1st, they beat Okostomi's vamps into thARRd courtesy of the TV tiebreaker (who said building teams does nothing for ya?). 48pts (9/5/2)
Stunty sprint
Was of course Justi's flings...Nuff said really, absolutely fantastic run, 10 wins equals the recARRd for flings in a sprint.
The goblins sprint was taken by Purplechest's
Steel Chest Goblins
. Who started off rather slowly compared to his previous effort, but by now surely must have put in a performance they can be quite proud of. 43pts (8/3/5)
The Ogre sprint was taken in the end by Randy_Moss's
, who, were one off of completing a full sprint, but still managed to claim top place ahead of other teams who played the full 16... 30pts (4/3/
Our top ScorARRs for the season was a shared prize between dashergeaux's
Geaux Long
and pizzamogul's
Hey! Watch This!
. Both with 32 TDs!
Our KillARRs were KhorneliusPraxx's
Under World Warriors (BT)
with a whopping 64 cas for!
Our BleedARRs were... rather predictably, dirold's
I Batuffoli Malefici
, well you play stunties in the box eh?
and lastly, the prize nobody really wants...
Our StrainARRs were KhorneliusPraxx's
Dragon Isles Dreadnaughts (BT)
, , who conceded 44 TDs... durr!
Full standings are available
All othARR top ten finishers can claim their loot here:
(That'd be Gseize's Dirty Dancer, MattDakka's Loec's Lynces, Nestoroide's Ranaldinhos Superstar Team, Arnaufrago's Amazing BoBOX, MattDakka's Tzunki's Hoppers, Miceycraft's Mighty Mootlings, and Suppurax's Bashlords for the main sprint)
EvARRyone who completed a sprint (16 games) can claim this:
And as always, we can't be ARR without allowing some to lAARd it ovARR othARRs, so all top three racial finishARRs can claim the appropriate badge:
If you wARR a brawl winARR in the last season (or previously but haven't added the badge), then this one heARR is for you!

The link doesn't work for like 4 weeks now.
Also the Black Box Sprint links I have do not work anymore.
Are there new sites for it or are Sprint and ARR dead and gone?

Carnforth station Heritage Centre Manager John Adams and owner of The Refreshment Room Andrew Coates discuss the featured 19th-century station were David Lean's classic British romance Brief Encounter (1945) was shot. Retired rail worker and Carnforth clock keeper Jim Walker talks about the iconic 1895 clock on the main platform and how it was thought lost for years until a mysterious benefactor contacted the station and the original clock was put up again in 2002.
David Lean's Brief Encounter (1945), starring Celia Johnson and Trevor Howard, was named the best movie romance of all time by a panel of 101 actors, directors and critics.
Turbulent passion and middle-class restraint combine in uniquely English style when a married woman falls for a doctor she meets at a railway station.

Where next for River City?
In truth, that much has been obvious for some time. Two years ago this month MacIver was interviewed on stage at the Edinburgh Film Festival. She outlined the path for writers looking to break in via River City: submit a critique of the show, along with a sample of your original writing. Dozens of people applied and I was among the many offered a chance to write half a sample episode for River City based on supplied scene by scene breakdowns.
MacIver said the best 15-20 people would be invited for a weekend workshop with the script team at River City, learning more about the process of writing for the show. All those invited would write a full trial script and, hopefully, one or two could be offered commissions for the series. No guarantees, but plenty of encouragement. The process had worked before: Louise Ironside came through it, becoming one of the show's most outstanding writers.
That was September 2006. We all got emails thanking us for our effort [we'd had a long weekend to write our trial scripts], and the progress of feedback later that week. The following week we got an email apology for the delay, but the promise of feedback soon. After that the emails dried up, leaving those who'd done trials in the dark. Some gave up, others kept chasing for a reply. I believe in persistence, so I kept in contact as best I could.
Fast forward to September 2007. After a year of waiting, I got a rejection letter from River City based on what I'd written. I phoned up the person who'd actually read my material and asked for further feedback. They offered to read more recent material, so I sent in my latest original script. More phone calls, more gentle nudging, no replies. In December I discovered that person had left the show.
After 15 months of this, I admitted defeat. If you wanted to break into TV writing via continuing drama, it seemed apparent you had to look south of the border. I switched my focus to Doctors, which has a tradition of finding and nurturing new writing talent. After two years of faithfully watching River City, I gave up on the show. All that waiting and all those broken promises soured it for me.
My decision to look elsewhere for openings was confirmed a few months back. Somebody at River City rediscovered the original script I'd sent in for feedback. They sent it back and said the show would not be looking at new writers for at least twelve months, but I was welcome to get back in touch sometime during 2009!
In truth, I'm not bitter about what happened with River City. It was frustrating at the time, but I wasn't ready. I've still got so much to learn, but believe I'm nearer the standard required now than I was two years ago. I do think it's a shame there are so few opportunities for writers based in Scotland who want to break into TV drama. River City used to a potential doorway - not anymore.

Bizzare! How can a show which produces an hour of drama a week (in 30 or 60 minute slots) NOT be looking at new writers? I may be half the output of the other soaps but it's still a huge turnover of scripts and ideas. Plus, it's the BBC, in Scotland - it's supposed to be part of their remit to bring new people through and something like River City represents (like the other soaps) a perfect training ground to nuture talent. Wasted opportunity... and a real shame for all the talented writers in Scotland looking for their first break... On the other hand, if the scheme you described has worked in the past on River City, maybe it really is just a case of changing staff and the resulting upheavels.

River City was and is a gang of daft wee lassies playing at making TV. Come to think of it that goes for BBC Scotland.

I was just the same David. It took a year for them to give me a one sentence knockback.
I spent two years sending in work and e-mailing before they even asked me to write a critique of the show and write the sample episode.

Count yourselves lucky. It was no place for a new writer. It would have shattered your illusions. Show politics up the wazoo, editors and producers promoted way above their abilities. It would probably have left you with some very bad habits and expectations that you'd subsequently have to un-learn.

Lucky escape, folks. It's absolute bollocks that people on RC didn't have time to read those scripts. It could all have been sorted in six weeks if every script editor/producer had spent one hour three days a week reading. As it was, RC was chronically over-staffed in editorial terms.
When it comes to encouraging Scottish talent, River City has now resorted to flying in writers from south of the border. BBC Scotland's a complete disgrace.

It began as a simple gesture -- well, simple anywhere but in the Village. After September 11, a doorman at 61 Jane Street hung an American flag in the spacious, well-appointed lobby. Recently, that flag was replaced with a more permanent one, complete with an ersatz-gold pole topped with an ersatz-gold eagle.
Alas, the new Stars and Stripes soon had some residents up in arms: Amy Bauer and her partner, Donna Gould, slipped a letter under the doors of all 260 units, reading in part: "In this time of impending war with the people of Iraq, a show of the flag, to us, means a show of support for the Bush administration and its foreign policy."
Other anti-flaggers felt they were under attack on what should have been home turf. "One man called me a communist for wanting to remove the flag!" lamented a disgruntled resident. "Many of us moved to the Village because it was a bastion of liberalism. Some of the new residents, they're here because it's close to Wall Street!"
Hoping to resolve the debate, one resident, Romy Truscelli, circulated a survey with three options: pro-flag all the time, pro-flag only on holidays, anti-flag all the time. Last week, the issue came to a head at a meeting between the building's board and shareholders at the Westbeth Theater, where (after a debate on such other matters as toilet "flushometers") the results were announced. The majority had voted pro-flag on holidays.
Rising from his seat, longtime resident and anti-flagger Victor Cino was incensed: "I'm on the side of Henry David Thoreau," he cried, "who said that the majority is sometimes wrong!" A pro-flag woman cut in: "This is a time unlike any we've ever lived through. The flag stands for our country's beliefs!" She then added: "And I'm a pacifist!"
After one woman almost broke down in tears, and another managed to evoke anti-abortion activists and Saddam Hussein in the same sentence, a board member couldn't take any more. "While we're being so honest, I'd just like to say frankly that I think it's ridiculous that we even had to think about this," she said. "This is not the White House, this is not the Capitol."
"It's not even the Kremlin!" shouted another member.
There was a round of exhausted applause, and the issue was left up to the board. ("I feel good," said Bauer, "My prediction is they will either have it up at holidays or not at all.") One resident who was not on hand was Susan Brownmiller, feminist author of Against Our Will. "As a political activist, I view the whole thing with amusement," she said. "Though I do think it's important to remember that the meeting was for shareholders only, when a good portion of us, like myself, are renters. That's some kind of democracy, no?"

When you were little you used to…
Grandparenting: Generation stories have their place!
When You Were Little…
CyberParent Staff
"When you were little you used to…
and Junior is just like you."
Generation stories have their place!
|Generation stories have their place–a happy place and an annoying place.
What are the words that your children might least like to hear?
What are the words your children might quickly learn to tune out?
"When you were little, we used to…"
Each generation of parents has their own "parenting" expert, their own ideas, their own nutrition, etc.
Your way of doing things is almost certainly not the new way of doing things.
That is one time children probably will not want to hear, "When you were little, we used to…"
"When you were little, you used to…" is a different story, however.
There is one time that children will usually enjoy this phrase. That is an old story of how cute they were, funny they were, or smart they were then.
They will particularly enjoy a pleasant tale that ends in, "And Junior is just like you were at that age."

FAIRFIELD, Pa. — A Gettysburg, Pa., man was in critical condition Thursday night at Meritus Medical Center after his 1995 Saturn became wedged between two tractor-trailers at the intersection of Main and North Miller streets in Fairfield on Wednesday, police said.
Eric M. Doyle, 30 was pulling from a stop sign onto Main Street at about 4:10 p.m. when he traveled into the path of a westbound 2000 Kenworth tractor-trailer being driven by Paul Hawbaker, 65, of Waynesboro, according to Patrolman Dustin Miller of the Carroll Valley Borough Police Department.
Hawbaker's truck collided with the driver's side of Doyle's car, which spun counter-clockwise and became wedged between that truck and an eastbound tractor-trailer being driven by Daniel Abraham, 61, of Orangeburg, S.C., Miller said.
Doyle was trapped in the wreckage and had to be cut free from the debris, Miller said.
Doyle was flown to Meritus Medical Center.
Hawbaker and Abraham were not injured, Miller said.

People holding California state IOUs -- including taxpayers, vendors and local governments -- will soon have a tougher time redeeming them, as most major banks are standing firm on a vow not to cash the vouchers after today.
Many credit unions say they will continue to redeem the IOUs for customers. But without mainstream banks as an option, recipients of the IOUs who need cash immediately could be tempted to sell them at a discount to third-party speculators, including ones popping up on the Internet.
Responding to that potential, the Securities and Exchange Commission determined Thursday that the IOUs are securities under federal law, which will generally require anyone trading them for profit to be a registered securities dealer.
The move is aimed at limiting the risk that IOU recipients could be defrauded by individuals or companies that offer to buy the scrip.

Lubar, David. Punished!
Lubar, David. Punished!. Darby Creek, 2006 [978-1-58196-042-5]
NOTE: This is an elementary book that I purchased because I enjoy the author's work.
Logan and his friend were running around the library when a man appears, annoyed saying "You need to be punished." He takes a book and blows dust off it onto Logan's face. His "pun"ishment is that everything he says has puns in it. It drives everyone at home and school crazy. The only way he can break the spell is to go on three quests: to find seven oxymorons, seven anagrams, and seven palindromes. What follows in this 96 page book is a series of fun word adventures as Logan tries to gather all the things he needs to break the spell. Although this book is elementary, it would a fun read-aloud or even in a language arts writing class.

If you've already invested in NBA 2K14 on your PS3 or 360, you'd be forgiven for assuming that the PS4 and Xbox One iterations are fundamentally the same. They are in the ways that matter most; the intricacies of its basketball simulation are still vast, and just about any conceivable piece of on and off-court strategy in the sport can be emulated in-game. But the modes and features that wrap around that core are completely different from the NBA 2K14 released a few months ago. This restructuring isn't completely successful, but most any basketball fan should find the next-gen version worth pairing with their new system of choice.
Taking to the court still feels excellent. This year's iteration mapped a bunch of ball-handling moves to the right stick, and all of that is completely in tact here. Using the stick to deke your way past the opposition or put some numbers on the boards still feels natural, though it's not without a learning curve. There are pages of specific stick movement patterns and button combinations in the menu, and it took me some hours to get to grips with all of it. Once you do, things begin to focus and more advanced moves become comfortable. It all feels at least as good as it did with the old scheme, from pump fakes to intercepting passes. Still, the game could be more consistent in its tutelage. One annoying sticking point is the shot feedback system, which feels pretty well broken at times. I lost count of how many times the game would praise the timing, quality and selection of my shot only for the ball to smack the board or tank entirely. Other times a "very late, D grade" shot would be nothing but net. It's a shame that some of the tools intended to transition you to the new controls fall so flat, but they're intuitive enough to make stumbling through a few games to get the gist fairly painless.
The LeBron-centric story mode from the PS3/360 versions of the game is completely excised, and the MyCareer and MyGM modes are near-unrecognizable in their design. Leaving those old modes behind turns out to be mostly a good thing. MyCareer is now the story-based replacement for the LeBron stuff, a storyline that follows a player you create from NBA try-outs to All-Star fame. When I say storyline, I mean it – MyCareer is filled with cutscenes, dialogue and even diverging options of what to say to set the tone of how a scene plays out. It's an interesting development of the "started from the bottom" types of career modes oft in sports games, though in some ways it's obviously a first attempt and what'll be something more down the line. Cutscenes have some pretty rough lighting and framing, and the voice acting is brutal. But it's also the beginning of an ambitious experiment for NBA 2K, and it's easy to get caught up in its mix of basketball and exposition as is. It'll be exciting to see how MyCareer continues to evolve over the next few games. Even in its current form, it was enough to get my attention.
The game attempts to rebuild the management side of things in its MyGM mode, but the undercooked story elements feel overly exasperating here. It's neat that it introduces the social intricacies of running a team alongside the spreadsheets of player and financial data. You have a GM avatar, and you'll have to talk with your players, team owner and other GMs to try and keep everybody content with their pay and sway. Having that extra layer of consideration will add to the simulation in a big way some day, but only once the dialogue and acting majorly step up. Conversations in MyGM sound like first takes from people who maybe haven't done much acting in their day. A lot of lines sound confused, as though the words were read without understanding their sequential meaning. It could use all kinds of work, in other words. Micromanaging your players, staff, arena and financial end is still here, but it's buried under a lot of bad cutscenes and clustered menus. If GM mode is key for you, holding off for next year's offering might be a good idea.
During my time with NBA 2K14, passersby glancing at my TV mistook the tremendously slick presentation for a real-deal NBA broadcast. At a quick glance, it's an easy mistake to make. The next gen versions of this game look superb, leaps and bounds beyond what was possible on the last round of hardware. Developer 2K used a facial scanning technique that allows player models to convincingly doppelgang their real-world counterparts, and the way animations seamlessly tether between one another is better than ever. Menus and overlays feel authentic to a TV presentation, and the commentary from Harlan and Kerr is vibrant and pleasantly reactive to your actions. Without a doubt, NBA 2K14 is one of the best-looking games around. The only true rough spot are the on-court interviews between quarters. The horrendous reporter and announcer models seem to be the only last-gen holdovers here. Their stoic visages and flapping mouths are sort of nightmarish, and definitely out of place. A very small issue, of course, but still jarring.
If you dig basketball and own some shiny new hardware, you should pick this up. Managing a team on and off the court feels as good as ever. The new modes feel a touch underdeveloped, but they augment the excellent action in some interesting ways that are worth checking out. Even if you already bought the last-gen edition, the stunning visuals and accompanying glimpse into where this series is headed are worth the upgrade. Aspiring GMs may be disappointed, but the quality of simulated ball on display in NBA 2K14 can't be denied.

Trever and I have been to Marie Calender's twice this week. Our friends make fun of us for being old, but who can beat 6.99 for all you can eat soup, salad, and cornbread. Who cares that we are the youngest people there, we like a good slice of pie (R.I.P pushing daisies).
Trever really is getting old! Last night he went to bed at 10:00 and he wakes up at 8:30. (I'll spare you the math, that's 10 1/2 hours of sleep)
Two things to notice
-my short hair
-my awful cheesy smile :)

Hi Brooke! Don't give Trever such a hard time...I also like to log a lot of sleep...somewhere around 9-10 hours a night! But of couse, Alex makes fun of me for it!
As for being old, we should totally hang out, we like to do puzzles and think that's the ultimate old people activity!

Hi all! I haven't shared my surgery story yet, but this seems like the right place and the right time.
As most of you know, I got sick around the beginning of the year and had so many battles finding help after my CM diagnosis. What a nightmare that was. After finding this board, chatting with so many of you, and doing TONS of reading...I took the plunge.
I had Posterior Fossa Decompression (PFD) w/duraplasty & C1 laminectomy about a month and a half ago. It's been quite the journey, but I don't have any regrets. The first couple of weeks were great while I was still on the meds. The third and fourth week were tough, but the last 2-3 weeks have been a steady improvement. I learned that there will be bad days after good days during this healing process, but that's OK because they pass too. My hair is growing back freakishly fast, and the incision is just tender now. I'm still dealing with random headaches.
The ASAP site, these boards, and its members have been a true blessing to us.
It's funny to read how bright-eyed and happy I was in this post. It's been over a year since surgery now. I don't regret my surgery, but I sure didn't keep the freedom I can feel just reading my post. I haven't had a good day in a long time. Feel free to PM me if you have any questions.

Is your company still relying on a legacy PSTN? Are your phone bills saddled by excessive fees for long-distance and international calling?
Well, based on the numbers, there's a good chance neighboring businesses have made the switch to an IP-PBX service and they are reaping the benefits. The VoIP industry is on the rise, with the market expected to pull in $88 billion by 2018 for VoIP services revenue, according to Infonetics Research. So, not only are your competitors upgrading their technology, but they are also earning back the bucks your company is shelling out on hardwire repairs and long distance call fees required by PSTN.
Companies that use VoIP are getting the most out of their corporate communication services. Specifically, they are enjoying the cost savings associated with VoIP, with the potential to cut their telecom bills in half. Additionally, by simply upgrading their phone system technology, companies can add extensions and lines free of charge as well as enjoy the ability to connect remote offices with bridges, eradicating long distance call charges.
When it comes to scalability, an IP-PBX phone system also has you covered. If you are a business owner whose company is just about to take off, you'll be expanding office locations and adding an influx of new employees. Reliable and up-to-date communication tools are as vital as keeping business finances in check. All the integrated features that VoIP has—from SIP trunking to WebRTC—will lend a helping hand financially while simultaneously improving internal networking.
So, maybe you didn't realize your competitor down the street was such a smart saver with a firm grasp on today's evolving communication resources. But, now is certainly the time to make sure your business doesn't fall behind due to old-fashioned technology and the associated costs.

When I was little, I used to wish on stars that I wanted to become like one of those humans discovering they are bestowed with magical powers and they could change the map if they wanted, like they showed on TV. Or, meet a guardian angel (literally) who'd help me win a competition and write an exam. Wishes then were simple, you see. I spent my whole childhood wishing this. But, time passed, grades declined, talent faded but nothing really happened. It was all a facade of lies and make-belief stories. It was life-shattering to me. And, then, life happened. How sad!
Break-ups, family problems, career indecisions and whatnot. There was no angel to help me live through each day. I struggled to get up on my feet and hold my tears back. Why? Because, you don't want anyone to know how excruciatingly it is hurting. You know they'll strike more on it. In it. Become the pain, who knows!
How often have you clutched your bedsheet and put your hands on the mouth for silencing your noise of misery? How often have you sat dumb-founded on your bed and thought of nothing but that one thing someone said? How often has the rain spoken to you more profoundly than any other verbose human being?
But, you know what keeps us going? The fact that we had survived yesterday without fail. We are past the time when eating the pill seemed easier than carrying the burden throughout the night. We have overcome what should have been and accepted what is. We are what we are today and what we were yesterday was just another person trying to hold us down. We demanded a trial by combat with it and after all, won!

Like most stories, this one has a back story:
I'm one of those people who names my vehicles and generally refers to them as "he" or "she". It started with my very first car. The former owner handed me the keys and said, "Her name is Putt Putt". Being a horse lover and quite familiar with the notion of having a trusty steed, it was only natural to me that a car should have a name, so I took to it right away. Over the years there have been others: Chance, Banshee, Vin, Jethro, Appa, Phil, Sparrow. Each would be deserving of their own blog post.
My steed here in Japan is a 1998 Nissan R'Nessa. There are many familiar makes here: Nissan, Toyota, Honda, Subaru, but a lot of models that aren't seen in the U.S. The R'Nessa is one of those. Here they refer to it as a station wagon; I'd call it a small SUV. What it is is a space anomaly. From the outside, it is a decent-sized vehicle, but on the inside you could throw a proper party. I've never seen a vehicle with so much interior space.
Anyway, I named mine "Nessie". She is a good car, sporty - for a large-ish vhicle (she's a turbo!), handy - doubles as our truck here (if we need to haul something, we use Nessie).
A few days ago I wrote about how we were in the middle of a string of three tropical storms or typhoons (depending on how they were rated at the time). The middle one, on it's way to us at that time, was expected to be the worst. The base put out all sorts of warnings, including to secure anything that was outside. Even the city put out an evacuation notice! It said that residents in several districts should be prepared to evacuate in case of mudslide. That was a new one.
The night it was supposed to start, it was raining when we went to bed. The forecast was for rain, wind, general typhoon activity, to start in the middle of the night and continue through the next afternoon.
We woke up early the next morning to sunshine and blue skies. The site that I use to check on storms showed that it was already up on Hokkaido, the big island to the north of us. I think this thing moved faster than they thought it would.
We didn't find anything amiss outside, except...
Nessie appears to have laid an egg.
It's been a few days now and she is still incubating it. I wonder if it will hatch into a dragon? A water horse? A tiny, yet cavernous little station wagon/SUV creature?
Welcome to the blog for Horse Tender Studio. Here I will discuss my plans for the Studio and share interesting things that I come across. I'll also be posting about my works in progress, and releasing the latest news on pieces for sale. (don't forget to feed the fish while you're here, they're always hungry)

R. Kelly Performs With 2 Chainz On 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!'
Kellz is pulling out all the stops for his TV performances recently, and last night Jimmy Kimmel was no exception. He began by bringing his album cover to life as he played a girl's body like a violin before launching into a medley that included "Genius", "You Deserve Better" and "My Story", the last of which saw 2 Chainz join Robert on stage. Check out the video up top. Black Panties drops next Tuesday. --Max Weinstein

I love a good political scandal. After yesterday's rumor regarding Isabeli Fontana's supposed man-snatching of Rohan Marley from Lauryn Hill — who also apparently just had a baby that may or may not be his — it seems that the top model is quite familiar with slander, which might come in handy now the she's running for President (in Donna Karan's Fall 2011 advertisements, that is).
All of thisgossip and "homewrecker" name-calling might put a bit of a damper on Fontana's up-and-coming campaign, but the girl does look good in the designer's power-ensembles, channeling a modern day Jackie O.
Watch the preview of the brand's short film that DKNY PR Girl posted to her tumblr this morning, and then tell me, would you vote for Isabeli?

Like so many children at Methodist Children's Homes, Jasmine came to us after dealing with abuse and neglect that ultimately made it unsafe for her to remain in her home.
When she first arrived at MCH, Jasmine was entangled in fear and mistrust. Once Jasmine began to form new, healthy relationship and experienced unconditional love and safety at MCH, she learned how to trust again. When Jasmine was elected Ms. Freshman for the Homecoming Court of a local Community College, she told us as she left, "Thank you, because if I weren't [at Methodist Children's Homes] no one would have done this for me."

The late Russell Fischer of Camarillo, a citrus farmer whose family developed Hilltop ranch in the Santa Rosa Valley in the 1930s, has become the single largest benefactor to the Ventura County Community Foundation, with a gift of $11 million.
The gift, announced Monday, will be used to establish endowments to benefit four local charities and a children's home near San Jose. The money, which will be invested, is expected to generate more than $500,000 a year.
Fischer, who died last summer at 93, never married and left no heirs, said Hugh Ralston, foundation president and chief executive.
"This is a tremendous vote of confidence by Mr. Fischer," Ralston said. The gift affirms "the work of the Community Foundation as a careful steward to look after a donor's desires long after they go."

It's mid-March and, while the BT Premiership's number one team is not in doubt, the bottleneck behind is tighter than it has been all season.
Heriot's have sat at the summit of the Premiership table for a remarkable 12 consecutive weeks and are guaranteed a home semi-final tie in the opening round of the inaugural play-off series, but the remaining three places and their order are still up for grabs with five teams all vying for a prized spot.
"It is funny how after a long, hard season it has come down to the final game to sort out the top four," said Melrose head coach, John Dalziel, whose team will now have to wait until either March 21 or 27 for the visit of third-placed Ayr due to an international player dispensation request from the Greenyards outfit.
"We hold a two-point lead over Ayr after they earned a losing bonus point in their game in hand against Currie last weekend, so a win guarantees us a home semi tie against them again in the play-offs.
"It has been a difficult second half to the season, but I am confident that the squad are in good shape and ready to have a real go at making another run at the league title."
In the other two Premiership matches with play-off place implications, Gala face a tricky test against Heriot's at Goldenacre, while Hawick mount their final charge for a top-four place against Boroughmuir at Meggetland.
Both matches take place on Saturday.
Greens vice-captain, Bruce McNeil, admitted Saturday's fixture will have a dress-rehearsal feel to it as the two will face-off on April 18 in the cup final, but remains focused on securing that fourth place which would cap a remarkable season which had begun with thoughts of another relegation battle.
"'Muir are a good side and it will have the feel of a trial to it before we play them for the cup in five weeks' time.
"We will still be going out there looking for victory as we are still in with a chance at a possible top four place.
"Another victory on Saturday with a few results going our way would cap a great couple of weeks for the club and our supporters."

Riley and Company again, with all the new design team members playing along too, including me! This week's challenge is Sports!
For my card I pulled out Scuba Riley and got to work. I also used this fabulous embossing folder from Stampin' Up! that is part of the Sale-A-Bration offers (one of my favorites!). I pulled out some of my ribbon as well, I love the bright green punches this ribbon adds to the overall card it goes so well with the texture.
Thank you for stopping by and checking out our new challenge, be sure to come back again soon to see what I create next. Also, stop by the Riley and Company Blog to play along as well!

"Old geologists never die; they just cross their nicols and rotate to extinction."
(Elga Gemst, 1978)
Pyroxene and Amphibole Diagram Mystery
Years ago I noticed a strange coincidence concerning the shapes of commonly taught diagrams concerning the compositions of pyroxenes and amphiboles, and their structures viewed perpendicular to their c-axes. Periodically I would think about why the pyroxene composition and structure diagrams were nearly identical, and the same for the amphibole diagrams, and I would ask friends about it, especially if I considered them to be astute mineralogists. Thus far, nobody has offered an explanation, and the mystery remains. It seems to be too much correlation to be coincidental, but I haven't yet devised a plausible explanation.

Are some varieties better for cats than others. For example, bison and elk are not something a cat would eat in the wild but there are things like chicken, duck, lamb, beef and rabbit.
I'm not personally familiar with the brand, but it is carried by one of the best exclusive raw food stores here & their site looks good.
Taurine is found in meat and also in organs especially heart, so as long as you have a proper balance of organs you're good there.
As for meat variety, a lot of that depends on what your cat will eat, though I would try to limit fish to once a week. I was also told at one point by an employee of a raw food store to feed red meat at least 1-2 a week for the higher iron, taurine content but Duffy's homeopath said she didn't need that much as a senior, which was good for her cuz Duffy did not like any of the red meats (beef, bison, elk) or lamb, but loved chicken & turkey. I know a vet who raw feeds his cat & she only likes the red meats, she won't eat chicken.
