As previously reported, WBO/IBF super bantamweight champion Nonito "The Filipino Flash" Donaire arrived in Los Angeles, and worked out immediately to remain in razor-sharp form for his much-awaited battle with Japan's classy southpaw Toshiaki Nishioka for the WBC Diamond Belt at the Home Depot Center in Carson City on October 13.
Top Rank promoter Bob Arum told BoxingScene.com/Manila Standard that Nishioka "is already here" although he hadn't seen any workouts by the Japanese champion emeritus who is also reported to be training hard and in great shape for a fight he said he always wanted.
Arum said "everything is great with a lot of press coverage and big, big sales" for the fight.
All indications both from Donaire and his trainer and former world champion Robert Garcia is that Donaire wants to make a statement in this fight against a champion considered to be one of the best in the division -- and that means winning by a knockout.
Its become more imperative for Donaire following his failure to score a knockout in his fights against Andres Narvaez of Argentina in November 2011, Wilfredo Vazquez Jr of Puerto Rico from whom he won the title last February 4, and against Jeffrey Mathebula of South Africa last July 7 from whom he took the IBF crown although in both fights Donaire dropped his opponents once.
Donaire told us he has never trained harder for a fight than the one against Nishioka who hasn't been stopped since his second pro bout in 1995. While he respects Nishioka, Donaire recalled that with a proper game-plan "will show my power which is what I was known for…lightning fast counters that were knocking people out" including Vic Darchinyan and Fernando Montiel.
Donaire said in reference to Nishioka "no matter how tough you are, if you don't see where the punch is coming from, you don't expect it and it will knock you down."
Garcia pointed out that Donaire's opponents have all been world-class fighters and knockouts don't come easy. He conceded that while - "it won't be easy against Nishioka. Nonito told me at the start of training camp he wanted to come in and do it the way he used to. That's picking them apart little by little, then knocking them out."

- Color: I Color or better. I Color with an Asscher or Emerald CutDiamond will give you the best value. Going higher in diamond color will give you an incremental benefit, but I'm not convinced it's worth the incremental price.
- I don't recommend J color with Asscher or Emerald Cuts because they retain color slightly more than Round Brilliants and Princess Cuts.
- Clarity: Stick to VS2 clarity for the best value. SI2 and SI1 clarity grades are generally not recommended with Step Cuts such as Asscher Cuts and Emerald Cuts. Step cuts aren't cut for their brilliance, so there's no break up of light to hide inclusions.
- The table of an Emerald cut or Asscher cut is like a big clear unobstructed window into the center of the stone. Any inclusions there will be clearly visible. If you are looking for an SI1 or SI2 Asscher or Emerald Cut, then you must verify that the inclusion is not in the center of the stone.
- Cut Parameters for Asscher & Emerald Cut Diamonds:
- Depth: 60% to 68% (under 65% is relatively hard to find)
- Table: 60% to 68%
- Polish/Symmetry: Good, Very Good, or Excellent
- Length/Width Ratio:
- Asscher: 1.00 to 1.05 is GIA's acceptable range for defining a diamond as "square."

Delinsky's latest family saga (Looking for Peyton Place, 2005, etc.) explores how a white, upper-middle-class New England couple would react if the wife gave birth to an African-American baby.
Hugh Clarke, a good-hearted Boston lawyer in his mid-30s, hails from impeccable Mayflower lineage. His beloved wife Dana never knew her father and was raised after her mother's untimely death by grandmother Ellie Jo, proprietor of a successful yarn shop. The Clarkes are overjoyed at the birth of their healthy daughter, Elizabeth, though startled by the baby's dark, curly hair and coppery skin. Hugh's parents insinuate that perhaps he's not the father. Confounded and hurt (as well as suspicious that Lizzie may have been sired by their attractive black neighbor), Hugh convinces his increasingly resentful wife to have a DNA test. It confirms that Hugh is the father and indicates that the baby carries the sickle-cell gene—inherited, subsequent tests reveal, not from Dana, but from Hugh. Was the reader ever in doubt? Hugh stands up to his superior father, a historian who seems more concerned about the impact of Lizzie's color on the reception of his new book than about the truth. Dana finds and confronts her father, while everybody at Ellie Jo's yarn shop gets to swoon over the newborn. Delinsky vigorously takes on some thorny racial assumptions here (i.e., that the dark-skinned child will not comfortably attend white-dominated schools) and admirably allows her characters to acknowledge and correct their biases.
Fail-safe delivery of an issues-packed story perfect for reading groups.

repurposed, revived, reclaimed, upcycled
as a boutique that focuses on resale, consignment and reclaimed goods (yep, even some of our handmade furniture pieces utilize reclaimed or recycled materials) we can sometimes use these words like repurposed or resale 100 times a day… at least. and there's good reason – it's in our heart to revive things and minimize waste.
and we aren't just talking about reclaimed wood furniture or decor pieces. did you know that the fashion industry is the second leading polluter in the world? the fast fashion trend might be fun to keep up with – but it is leading to ever growing waste and pollution.
however, shopping resale can help offset these realities. check out just a few of the details below:
we have a chance to make a real impact. not just in our region, but gloabally – and you can help.

To trim your hair at home, prepare the hair, trim the sides, pull the back forward, cut the back, remove split ends, and trim the bangs. Trimming your own hair takes roughly 30 minutes and requires hair cutting shears, a wide-tooth comb and a fine-tooth comb.
- Prepare the hair
Clean, dry hair is the easiest to cut. Wash and condition the hair as usual. Dry your hair completely using a blow dryer.
- Part the hair
Use a wide-tooth comb to remove all tangles from the hair. Let the hair fall to its natural part. Use a fine-toothed comb to create a segment from the crest of the ear to the part on either side.
- Cut the sides
Twist one side of the hair in front of your shoulder, and hold it securely. Trim the ends straight across. Repeat this process on the other side. Untwist both sides, and check the hair in the mirror to see if it is even.
- Pull the back forward
If your hair is very thick, part it across at the widest part of your head. Clip the top section up. Part your hair in the back straight down the middle. Pull those sections over your shoulders.
- Trim the back
Match the back section with the side that you've already cut. Trim each back section straight across so that it lines up with the side segment. If you split the hair, repeat this procedure with the top section from the back.
- Remove split ends
Do not attempt to cut layers. Instead, separate hair into 1-inch segments. Twist each segment tightly. Lightly run your fingers up the strand. The ends that stick out are split, so gently trim those hairs away.
- Cut the bangs
Lay your pointer finger against your forehead, and comb the hair over it. Lay your middle finger on top of the hair without pulling. Drop the hand one-quarter of an inch longer than you want the bangs. Point the scissors toward the ceiling, and snip out sections at a 45-degree angle. Repeat this procedure across the width of the bangs.

JW Martin hasn't added a story.
To bring awareness to the need for monthly support and/or assistance partnership gifts to reach our ministry growth goals, to improve the qualilty/variety of our programming, and fund projects that we can only do with outside supporters with the financial means to assist us in continuing our mission to Reach All For Christ; locally and abroad!
I receive a lot of questions on why should I give to
RacManChristianRadio. Well, we are a listener Supported Radio Station.
There are other ways besides financial to give to
RacManChristianRadio. Though it would be nice to receive financial
support, you can support us in other ways.
1-Pray! NO ministry can go without prayers from the saints. When
you pray for us, you petition God of the heavens and earth to move on
our behalf. Prayer is the foundation to everything we do!
2-Listen! We love music! We love ministry! But we don't just do
this for OUR benefit, this station was birthed for YOU! Show your
support by listening to our station on a REGULAR basis. We are
available online, on your tablet, and on your smartphone. You can take
us EVERYWHERE! Pick your favorite program or time of day, and make a
commitment to listening and interacting!
3-We've said it before. We don't have a huge Radio Advertising
Budget (No Billboards Here). If you are on Google, Twitter, Tumblr,
StumbleUpon, LinkdIn, Facebook, Facebook groups, and Facebook pages,
SHARE our ministry. Be consistent and passionate. Tell people what you
love about our ministry. Post free ads in your local communities,
share with your friends at church, work, where ever you go. We NEED
YOUR HELP! We cannot do this by ourselves to get the word out!
However, you can Give!
" I can't give to your
station, my resources are spread too thin;
I live on SSI, I am
committed to other ministries" are examples of reasons on why
some of you can't give.
If you have a business, consider sponsoring us every month in
exchange for advertising. This could include advertising exchange -
you promote us in your business, and we create ads to play on our station.
4 - To locate and partner with listeners around the world who
would also give each month to ensure our core ministry budget is met
faithfully (just $600.00 per month!)
Our present goal for finances is ONLY $600.00 Monthly! That's IT!
So, when we say ANY Amount. $1.00, $5.00, $10.00, etc from you, from
each person, that means goals and ministry needs will be met, and
lives will be changed. It is a sad but true fact that people are
vested and more committed to a project when they are financially
INVESTED. Go BEYOND LIKING and SHARING - GIVE at a level that YOU can
AFFORD. We are here for you, but if you are NOT hear/here for us, then
WHY are we HERE?
Please consider what you can do to support RacManChristianRadio.
We have some opportunities coming, and need your help. If you need
ideas, we have some ideas You can make a donation by going to www.racmanchristianradio.org/index.php/give
RacManChristianRadio has been a light, reaching around the world with eclectic blends of Christian Programming, Music, and Special ministry spots and devotions. We are seeking a total of $3100.00 to fully fund the first three projects listed. We are looking for donations to cover an affiliate subscription, plus money to upgrade our broadcast equipment (pcs and software), plus funding for additional man hours to host the additional programming. You can be a part of this effort to bring the depth of God's Word brought forth. "One Time Gifts" Any amount received which amounts totalling less than than $3100.00 will be applied to 1 or 2 of the lesser projects, and/or toward our much needed month budget needs.
Please partner with us to continue making a real difference in people's lives with your generous gifts to support this campaign, In Jesus' Name!
Thank you!
2 Peter 1:3-11
3 His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. 4Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. 5For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; 7and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. 8For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9But whoever does not have them is nearsighted and blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their past sins. 10Therefore, my brothers and sisters,make every effort to confirm your calling and election. For if you do these things, you will never stumble,11and you will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

After I reached my year mark I was curious as to what my long lost love, DC, would taste like. Should I take a taste? Should I find out how it tastes now, a year later and risk getting back on the "juice"? Well, my curiosity got the best of me. I mean, come on, I went a whole year.
I took a couple sips of DC (keep in mind it's always at my fingertips since my husband has yet to kick the bad habit...I'm working on him). My response was, WOW! And not in a good way. It tasted WAY too sweet, syrupy, and chemically (that's the word I used). It's funny how carbonated things taste after you don't consume them for a year. I have no interest in going back down that life with DC.
Here are some things I learned about DC in my life:
I'm not saying that you shouldn't ever consume a soda again in your life, but instead, rid it from your every day life. If you are consuming it daily, it's time for a change to reach the best you.
1. Soda Is Useless.
3. Diabetes
Researchers from Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston and Harvard Medical School4 analyzed data from the Nurses' Health Study II, a trial tracking the health of more than 51,000 women. None of the participants had diabetes at the onset of the study in 1991. Over the following 8 years, 741 women were diagnosed with the disease. Researchers found that women who drank one or more sugary drinks a day gained more weight and were 83% more likely to develop type 2 diabetes than those who imbibed less than once a month.
10. Harmful Effects On Liver
11. Impaired Digestive System
The phosphoric acid present in soft drink competes with the hydrochloric acid of the stomach and affects its functions. When the stomach becomes ineffective, food remains undigested causing indigestion, gassiness or bloating (swelling of stomach).Why does that matter? Throughout the digestive system, that starts from the mouth and ends up at the anus only the stomach can resist an acidic environment up to pH 2.0. But before the acidity of soft drink reaches the stomach it passes through all the other organs involved in the digestive system thus causing an abnormal acidic environment. The linings of the mouth, pharynx and esophagus are highly sensitive to acids.
12. Dehydration
13. High Caffeine Content
15. Possible Cell Damage Ability
16. There Are So Many Healthy Alternatives!
- Water. Water is the best drink in the world.
- Tea. Any kind of tea - herbal, green or black - is rich in antioxidants, which were shown to protects the body form many health problems.
- 100% Juice. Fruit juice can be also useful for flavoring your water and teas. (source)

If anyone was in any doubt on whether the Panorama team were complicit in the Dodgy Napalm Report, they made 29th August, this may help you decide. I don't know whether to be shocked or not.
I did know Panorama had televised the full program on 30th Sept but had not got round to viewing it. A post on the Guardian CIF prompted me to check it out (thanks to Atvar48). It linked to this article.
In the original report Dr Rola Hallam is shown saying one thing. In the later full Panorama episode it appears they have cut and pasted the audio so Dr Rola is saying 'chemical weapon' instead of 'napalm'. As Dr Rola is wearing a mask as she is speaking they've not had to worry about lip-synching. Unless you had the original to reference you wouldn't even realise it.
Original report (see 2:16 to 2:38): "I need a pause 'cause it's just absolute chaos and carnage here. Erm..we've had a massive influx of what looks like...serious burns..err...seems like it must be so some sort of...I'm not really sure....maybe napalm...something similar to that. But obviously within the chaos of the situation it is very difficult to know exactly what is going on"
Later report: (see 32:29 to 32:40): " It's just absolute chaos and carnage here. Erm...we've just had a massive influx of what looks like...serious burns..err...seems like it must be some sort of...chemical weapon...I'm not really sure"
Alternative Later Report (see 2:00 to 2:13)
While the footage of Dr Rola speaking with her mask on looks similar in both reports, note the guy with the the fluorescent jacket standing just behind to the side. In the original report he has his hands behind his back. In the second report, in the full Panorama program, he has his hands to the side. The footage is totally different. How much had Dr Rola said during this time? The only other reason we could have this difference is that her 'impromptu' interview had to have several takes, which is just as incriminating. But I have listened to the audio over and over. Each 'erm' and 'err' is exactly in the right place. The pitch of her voice etc. appears to be the same.
So why change her words to say 'chemical weapon' instead of 'napalm'? Did it look too suspicious with Dr Rola concluding napalm in all this 'chaos'? You'll also hear Dr Rola's associate say straight after "We don't know what we're dealing with" - as if to reinforce their innocence in all of this. Was 'chemical attack' more suited to the narrative?
Now, whatever the BBC claim about balance we all know they show whatever fits their bias. But when it comes to altering what someone has said in such a way then we're really in another ballpark altogether.
There are many more discrepancies which need a better look at, such as teenagers suddenly appearing in this later report which were totally absent from the first one. Now we can confirm that the guy with the stubble and faded jeans, who looks in his early 20s, showing Panorama around the 'school', is supposed to be the headmaster for seniors. Really?
They've also excluded the 'witness' pleading to the camera with his script on the full programme.
Note BBC iplayer may not be viewable outside of the UK. You can instead view the shorter BBC report here. And hopefully the BBC won't have tried to edit it again!

Great American Music Hall, San Francisco
June 15, 2014
This space has been both the bane of my existence and my "creative" outlet for 10 years now. Right now it's a grind for me to put words together. It feels like homework and that's not good. So, with this in mind, I'm trying to hit reset and basically took a month off from ranting about shows in this space. For those who care here's where I was during that time:
- May 15th - Sammy Hagar with James Hetfield & Friends - Acoustic-4-A-Cure Benefit - The Fillmore, San Francisco. Hetfield sang a Beatles song... Yeah. It was definitely one of those "only in San Francisco" nights and it was for a good cause. Oddly tickets were going for up to $500 via StubHub but Umlaut has a good friend who bought a ticket at face value only the week before via Ticketbastard. Hmm...
- May 17th - Scion Rock Fest 2014, Pomona, California. I had a TON of FUN and it was cool hanging with friends. I finally saw Midnight but was disappointingly underwhelmed; they had a large crowd but would have been better in a smaller space IMO. Orchid's first show ever in Southern California and they owned. Saw King Buzzo solo for the first time and I was impressed. Then I walked the streets of Pomona with him for a bit which was entertaining. I missed Coffins but Windhand were my favorite band of the fest.
- May 22nd - Black Cobra / The Cutthroat 9 - Slim's, San Francisco. A satisfying evening of massive volume with my bros Jason and Rafa with support from Cutthroat 9 who feature Chris Spencer on guitar from the legendary Unsane and Will Carroll on drums from Death Angel.
- June 4th - The Damned - Slim's, San Francisco. The band were great. The hits were played.. but old Punk crowds are WAY more uptight than old Metal crowds. Lighten up, Punks Not Dead.
The opening singer / songwriter was named Field who evidently is also the drummer for the guy who sings for System Of A Down when he does his solo thing. Field did exactly what you would expect from an evening of "acoustic" music. He sat on a stool with an acoustic guitar and sang as if the ghost of Nick Drake would anoint him simply for sitting on a stool with a guitar and singing. Field's time onstage made me ponder that if Nick Drake had lived 'Pink Moon' likely would have disappeared into obscurity and never been used to sell Volkswagen. Discuss amongst yourselves.. Anyway, before the show this happened downstairs:
The Mary Poppins Guitar
[Photo courtesy of Photo Ray]
Half of 7 Year Bitch were also downstairs, which was a nice surprise since I hadn't seen them in a long time. Then Buzz went upstairs and set up his own gear.
I had seen the Buzz acoustic machine play an abbreviated set last month at Scion Rock Fest 2014 and it was an epiphany. Seeing Buzz solo was like seeing the Melvins for the first time; I thought I knew what to expect but the reality was something different... and great.. and made me appreciate music in a different slanted way. Buzz did exactly the opposite of what you would expect from an evening of "acoustic" music. He still brought the volume.
Buzz smartly opened his solo set with 'Boris' into 'The Ballad Of Bright Fry'. These are songs that Melvins fans know well so they were old friends.. but the solo arrangements and interpretations made them new and engaging. Alone on stage Buzz's guitar thunders and his voice booms. Unlike with the Melvins, the words were as crushing as the chords. It was a revelation after having only known Buzz with an electric guitar in tandom with obliterating drums and bass all these years. Buzz solo onstage was like having Thor slam the stage with his mighty hammer. He also chatted with the crowd and told amusing anecdotes in between songs. Buzz was downright charming.
The songs off his brand new This Machine Kills Artist album work great in a live setting with 'Drunken Baby' being my fave of the night. Halfway through the set I moved to the back of the room to get another perspective. I was struck by how completely Buzz filled the room with his voice and presence in a different way than his band does. I've seen the Melvins more than a few times at the Great American and it was funny seeing only Buzz's hair onstage, but it worked. It completely worked. A very inspired and great version of the Melvins classic 'Revolve' closed out the 70 minutes and then it was Thankyouandgoodnight.
I didn't do a merch audit but there was a shit ton of Buzz merch for sale, only 2 of which were t-shirts. On the way back to the car, some pimply-faced teenagers called me a fag. It's very, very cool that an artist who I've followed for so long can still engage me and remove my jaded view of things and crush it under his shoe. King Buzzo does that.

Grüner Veltliner is an Austrian success story. Increasingly popular, well, fashionable - cool actually -, it stands for the renaissance of Austrian winemaking after the scandal of the 1980s. Leaving fashionability aside, the consistent quality of the Grüner ending up in my glass never fails to amaze me, and if you delve deeper into the subject you also learn how well these wines can age and how much substance they can have. So yet another Grüner to be reviewed on the Wine Rambler, you may say? Yes, but this one is different - it comes from New Zealand.
Never having tried a NZ Grüner before, I was very curious when I saw it in my favourite Battersea wine shop and took a bottle home with me to do some research - with Wiener Schnitzel, of course, and potato salad. Does New Zealand deliver?
Tasted blind, with surprising results, here.
Winery interview: Astrolabe Wines on New Zealand winemaking, Sauvignon Blanc and the Web 2.0 wine world
A little while ago a friend opened a New Zealand fruit explosion for me, a bottle of Astrolabe Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc. This was quite unusual as my friend has been a self declared beer drinking proletarian for a long time, so I was curious to taste the wine that got him so excited.
Posting the wine review here on the Wine Rambler led to something else that was unusual: Jason Yank, the general manager of Astrolabe Wines, contacted us – but not so much to applaud or critique the review, but to comment on a detail: my friend had mentioned to me that he saw helicopters used in winemaking in NZ to press down warm air in order to control the ripening of the grapes. However, this was not entirely correct: 'The use of choppers in NZ is purely to help bring down the inversion layer of air', Jason explained, 'during, what would otherwise be, quite catastrophic frost events. Nothing to do with ripening....' Jason also foolishly offered to provide more information, should the Wine Rambler be interested – which of course we are!
Do you know the proletarian, beer-drinking type who looks down upon wine? I have a good friend who is like this. Or, to be precise, he always pretended to be like this. Over the past few years, previously hidden signs of middle-classiness have emerged though and he even recently started to buy his own wine. A few days ago I was invited to sample his first home cooked roast and a wine he brought back from New Zealand. Now let's see which is the wine with the power to convert would-be working class beer drinkers into wine snobs. [read the full post...]

Retail Career Fair 2015 Game Booth - Team 2
Date: 19 November 2015, Wednesday
Team 2 was tasked to do up a game booth to be used in the Old Folks SG50 Lunch Event. However, the event was postponed due to the haze conditions and our team had to modify the game to fit into the Retail Career Fair. Our booth was placed there to act as a crowd magnet for the students to visit the other neighboring booths. The theme of the Retail Career Fair was Monopoly. With this theme, we included the different elements of job positions and different retail-related occupations.
On the event day, we gather at 0845AM for a final briefing before we proceed to set up the game booth at the Atrium.
Ben, Charmaine & Jai setting up the banner and game rules of the booth.
Game prizes to be awarded to the participants.
Motivation quote cards are given out as a participation prize.
Our Game Rules.
Team 2's group photo!
Overall, our game booth has contributed to the success of the event. We brought joy and laughter to the event and had as much fun as the participants did. We managed to surpass the expected number of players at the end of the day, in addition there were repeated students who came back to our booth to play as they felt that the game was challenging yet fun. We also received positive feedback from students, lecturers and visitors that the game was very well-decorated.

PTI objects to amendment to absolve names in Panama Papers: Qureshi
UMERKOT: Vice Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Shah Mehmood Qureshi said that the party objects to the 24th Amendment as it would absolve those named in the Panama Papers,
Qureshi, while speaking to media at Samejo House, said that he is personally in favour of going to parliament to vote against the constitutional amendment, but the party had taken a mutual decision to boycott it.
He further said that India was martyring our soldiers by unprovoked firing across the Line of Control, but we had no foreign minister to pursue the case in international forums.
He said that the Defence minister should rather be focused on the situation at the LoC, but was more interested in the Panama Papers and defence of the Prime Minister.
To a question, he said that the Governor of Sindh and Karachi were both were in an emergency ward. He said that he would support Bilawal Bhutto if he launches a movement against the government.
Qureshi also paid tribute to outgoing Chief of Army Staff General Raheel Sharif and for his efforts against terrorism in the country.
Qureshi has arrived on a four-day tour of Sindh and to pass the vision and message of PTI Chairman Imran Khan to the people of the people.
Before arrival, the PTI leader went on to say that he will tell the story of Panama Leaks and corruption to every child of Sindh.
"I will highlight the priorities of the rulers to the poor, oppressed and hard working people of Pakistan," Qureshi said.
He further said that he will tell the people how the prevailing system, which is in the hands of the elite class, has failed to protect the rights of the downtrodden.

Using a generalization of the definition of the projective cover of a module, a special type of surjective free resolution, known as the projective cover of a complex, may be defined. The projective cover is shown to be a direct summand of every surjective free resolution and to be the direct sum of the minimal free resolution and an exact complex. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the projective cover and minimal free resolution to be identical are discussed.

Brand information
For over forty years, Mulberry has been a leading lifestyle brand, internationally acclaimed for forging iconic examples of British design and manufacturing expertise.
Born in 1971 at a family kitchen table in Somerset, England, Mulberry's heritage drew early inspiration from English rural pursuits and Mulberry's unmistakable, distinctive style soon became world renowned. Having started with simple leather belts, the brand has remained at the height of fashion with a wide assortment from handbags and purses to mobile accessories and jewellery.
Mulberry today serves a unique point of view on heritage. While they continue to encapsulate a truly British identity, the hallmarks of these creations - timeless design coupled with traditional quality and a sense of the here and now - are the threads that run through everything they make. Between town and country, Somerset serenity and London pace, Mulberry combines authentic, age-honoured craft with an innovative fashion character.
"Play with the classic, twist the conventional, use the familiar to make something inspiring and new." Johnny Coca, Creative Director, Mulberry.More from Mulberry Home

An earthquake has just hit near San Juan, the capital city of San Juan province in Argentina. The natural disaster registered as a 5.2 on the Richter scale.
The event took place at 23:00pm UTC time (4pm PST, and 7pm EST). It is not yet known any potential damage the disaster caused, both in terms of any land/property damage as well as any injuries or deaths suffered by the residents of San Juan, Argentina following the 5.2 magnitude earthquake. The depth is reported as being 30km.
The area in which the quake struck is called Mendoza. It is located in the Cuyo region, and is the capital of Mendoza Province. It is most famous for being in the heart of the nation's wine country. Their population was last reported in 2010 as consisting of just over 115,000 people, although that is said to be quickly growing due to the amount of tourists who come to the area and decide to stay, and the individuals who formerly lived in other parts of the country and chose to move there instead.

Several relatives of victims of the September 11 attacks have criticised President Donald Trump's executive order on immigration, saying they don't want the memories of those killed used to justify harming refugees.
Trump last Friday banned travel into the United States by people from seven Muslim-majority countries, leading to protests, confusion and legal challenges.
"This is totally unacceptable," John Sigmund, whose sister, Johanna Sigmund, died inside the World Trade Center in New York on September 11, 2001, told reporters on a conference call.
"It goes against everything we stand for as Americans."
The text of the order specifically made reference to the hijacked plane attacks, which killed about 3000 people.
But the relatives who spoke on Tuesday pointed out that none of the September 11 Islamist militant hijackers was from any of the seven countries named in Trump's order.
Trump's order halted travel by people with passports from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen for 90 days and stopped resettlement of refugees for 120 days.
Fifteen of the 19 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia, two from United Arab Emirates and one each from Lebanon and Egypt.
The White House has described the order as necessary "to protect the American people from terrorist attacks by foreign nationals admitted to the United States".
September 11 family members said Trump's action would sow mistrust among Muslim Americans and hurt refugees from war-torn countries.
Most of the relatives are members of September 11 Families for Peaceful Tomorrows, a group formed in 2002 that opposed the war in Iraq.
"I am actually sickened by President Trump's use of 9/11 in this executive order," said Terry McGovern, whose mother was killed at the World Trade Center.
"Don't use our loved ones, and specifically my mother, to turn away refugees."
Not all September 11 families may agree, however.
Kathleen Ganci, the widow of a fire department official killed in the attacks, told The New York Times she supported efforts to restrict travel to ensure national security.
"There's many, many fine Muslim people in this world but there's many many people who want to kill us, and we need to vet them, and we need to find out," she was quoted as saying.

There are always things that you really like that don't neccessarily appeal to anyone else. I imagine that I'm not the only one who likes them but I think what I like is not everyone's cup of tea.
Above, a display of Mr. Cason's Garden (from Callaway Gardens): I love animals made from shrubs, vines and flowers. It reminds me of Disney World. I don't think I would have one in my yard but a cute bunny pushing a wheel barrow a la Peter Rabbit always makes me smile.
This little girl is adorable. She looks too little to be able to read but her parents have sure instilled a love of books in her. Now really, isn't that a cute picture?
I have some bamboo drying out, just to make this sort of thing. This is a bamboo teepee/garden arbor/kids hideaway. I love, love love it.
My sister and I spied this compost bin at the same time. She said, "This might be better than our round, plastic one we have at home."
She is probably right. This would hold a great deal of compost and I love that it is low-tech.
I really need a cold frame. This is another low-tech thing that will never go out of style.
Elvis: One of our garden club members said she would be happy to pose beside him anytime.
Ferns: I have too much shade in my yard and I need to learn to love ferns more. They are pretty and add variety and best of all, green.
The pseudo-cemetery: I really loved the serenity of this exhibit. I think cemeteries should be garden spots and they have done a very good job here.
I really loved the lenten roses, helleborus. They add to the serenity and are evergreens.
And this was the "eat your fruit and veggies display. It has everything including mushrooms. A photo doesn't do it justice but this was one of my favorite things.
I really loved the way the fruits and veggies added to the pretty flowers in this exhibit. I didn't really get it because it is very odd. Hate the fireplace and ashes--love the arrangement. I guess this could be, "I am intensely ardent, passionate or flaming for fruits and veggies."
I know that May Day is said to be a pagan celebration, but we always had a Maypole at my elementary school and I will always love them. It was amazing how the participants wove a colorful pattern on the pole. I can't help it, it was pretty and fun. This exhibit made me think of school days and maypoles. It was nostalgic.
And because everyone who goes to a Flower show where one of the speakers is Vince Dooley, legendary football coach turned master gardener and author, would have to like this one. This is for you.

Dr. Rod MacKinnon and his friend, Dr. Bruce Bean, were deep sea kayaking in the winter when they were both seized with life-threatening muscle cramps. They experienced such debilitating pain that neither could steady their kayaks.While they survived the excruciating moment, it flipped the switch on their curiosity – why do we cramp? What is the cause? What is the cure?Over the next five years, Rod and Bruce worked to unravel the mystery, and discovered this surprising truth: when it comes to preventing muscle cramps, it's not about treating the muscle, it's about treating the nerve

Something demonstrated by our man Sven Yrvind recently in his little trailer sailer.
Of course he is on one end of extremes, the other being a craft that requires a heavy duty haul vehicle and trailer, with help from a crane to laugh and rig/unrig at the end.
Something in-between the examples is the focus here, so I propose that a craft that comes together in components, within size and weight limits that are manageable by the bare handed builders, be adhered to.
To give this proposal substance, I should probably include a pic of it being done.
I had better leave this keyboard then and get my butt down the road to the workshop. to laminate the glass cloth onto the decks.

This years meet turned out just as lovley as the one last year, I'm so proud of ouer fun, creative and beautiful lolita comunity. I loved ouer new location even though it was a little further out of Stockholms city core then Hummlegården, it came with benefits of a more beautiful, spacious enviroment. And we got rather lucky with the weather again this year, the rain didn't come untill we where heading inside for the guided tour of the castle. What did everyone else think about the change of location and the fact that we moved it to the later part of summer instead of in may? Was it an improvement or a change for the worse or just about the same? As for me, I had so much fun I kind of look forward to next year already.

Sis Piss Ch. 03byRabbitPrince©
Thanks to everyone again for your amazing support and responses! The tale continues...
I was awakened to a series of muffled girly giggles. "Wake up, Tommy," Leslee said, fixing me with a grin. "I've got a bladder full of piss, and you're going to drink up every drop of it, aren't you?" She was naked and kneeling beside me with her hands on her hips. Kathy and Marion were to my other side, underneath the covers still and giggling.
I somewhat blearily wiped my eyes and yawned. "Um, sure thing, Les," I said. I stretched my back and arms, kicked off the covers and laid back. "Come crawl up here and put your pussy on my mouth."
"You dirty fuck," she chuckled as she shuffled up and swung a leg over my head. "You like drinking my piss, don't you?" Her hairy red snatch was only inches from my mouth. Marion and Kathy maneuvered closer so they could see better, still giggling.
"Yeah, I love it, Les," I replied to her, opening my mouth in anticipation of her yellow stream. My cock was twitching and quickly coming to full erection.
"What do you love?" she asked me as she squatted over my face, her hands back on her hips. "Tell me!"
"I love drinking your piss, Les," I responded. My cock strained and throbbed as I said the words. My face was flushed with excitement and mild embarrassment. Marion and Kathy were only about a foot away to my left, I could hear them snickering and snorting as they watched.
"Say my full name," she snapped, "And use the word 'pee pee'. Now tell me again!"
I hesitated for a second. "...I love drinking your pee pee, Leslee," I said. Kathy and Marion both squealed in delight and mirth next to me. My face was burning a deep red now with embarrassment. My pulse was pounding in my cock as it surged to rigid hardness.
"I want to hear that one more time," Leslee teased me in a sing-song voice.
"I love drinking your pee pee, Leslee!" I affirmed louder this time. Kathy and Marion snickered and tried to suppress peals of laughter. I was incredibly turned on by this treatment. I felt ashamed and humiliated, but I was loving it! I couldn't wait for her to start evacuating her bladder so I could taste her piss. My mouth was watering, I was dying for it!
"Ok, I want to hear one more thing before I let it go," said Leslee. "I want to hear you ask me to piss into your mouth so you can drink it. Use the word 'pee' again, I like that. And you'd better be polite!"
"Please, Leslee," I begged her, "Please pee into my mouth so I can drink it!"
"Good boy!" she praised me. Threading her fingers into my hair, she lifted my head up and raised my mouth to her pussy. My two other sisters were giggling away like mad. I engulfed Leslee's labia and prepared to receive her golden offering. Her lips tasted of salt and the flavour instantly sent shivers through my body. "Ok, I want you to concentrate really hard here, I don't want you to spill a drop on my bed," she said as I locked my mouth onto her lower lips. My cock was twitching uncontrollably. "And one last thing," she said. "Smile, you're on kinky camera!"
With that, she unleashed a torrent of urine into my mouth. I frantically rolled my eyes over to my other sisters, and indeed, Kathy held a camera pointed directly at me! I panicked!! I tried to move, but Leslee had me by the hair with her snatch pushed into my mouth. Her urine tasted awful!! Unbelievably sour, overwhelmingly strong! I choked and gagged, my face grimacing in disgust and horror. I struggled as Kathy and Marion screamed in laughter. Leslee's stinking piss roared into my mouth. With superhuman effort I managed to choke down a mouthful. It was salty and acidic, bitter and foul. It kept coming like a geyser, squirting into my mouth and filling it. I resolved myself to overcome the terrible flavour and just swallow down every drop as quickly as I could. I opened my throat and chugged another mouthful down. Leslee's flow was constant and instantly my mouth was again full. I chugged and chugged, the vile liquid being guzzled directly from her bladder, through her pee-hole, into my gaping mouth and straight down my throat into my stomach.
As I began gulping down her piss, she relaxed her hold on my hair slightly. "Good boy," she crooned to me. "Good thirsty boy, drink up all my hot stinking piss. I've got a new name for you. I'm going to call you Piss Pot from now on," she mused.
I moaned in between gulps as my body went wild with chills. Once again this horrible, rancid, most disgusting taste I'd ever beheld became ambrosia. The nectar of the gods. The vile, volatile orange brew she was voiding into my mouth was transformed into a potion of ecstasy, the source of my life and my reason for being. I gulped down her pee with enthusiasm and force, sucking the piss right out of her cunt. It was paradise! The more sour and putrid her piss, the more joy it brought to me! God, I was going to come again!!!
I desperately sucked on her vulva with all my might as waves of rapture surged through my body. My hips thrust forward involuntarily as my entire abdomen was seized in a warm, crushing grip that squeezed the breath from me. I fairly screamed into Leslee's cunt as I ejaculated, desperately locking my lips onto her twat to form a seal so I wouldn't miss a single drop of her stream. Thankfully, it had slowed slightly by now.
"Shit, Tom's coming in his pants again!" gushed Marion. "Get that on film!!"
Spurt after spurt of thick, sticky semen blasted into my pyjama bottoms as I moaned with the intensity of my release. Leslee's flow of urine had slowed to a trickle. I still had my mouth in a death-grip around her vulva, sucking the last glorious drops of urine out of her with zest. "Fuck, you are a dirty fucking piss pot, aren't you?" growled Leslee. "Coming in your pants just from drinking down all my hot piss? Yeah, you dirty fucking dog. Get the last drops. Taste it. Savour it. Now lick my cunt. Make me come. Yeah, do it. Lick my cunt."
I didn't need any encouragement there. I continued sucking on her pussy for all I was worth, lapping and slurping up every drop of her piss, tasting every inch of her vagina, sliding my tongue all over the folds of her snatch and flicking over the hardness of her clit. It didn't take long before she grabbed my hair in both hands and began bucking on my face. "UUHHHNNNN!!" she groaned as she began to orgasm. She doubled over and ground her pussy onto my face as she thrust and twitched, cumming with intensity as her well-muscled torso convulsed in joy. "GOD, YEAH, SUCK MY CUNNNNNT!!!" she howled as came, gasping and gyrating with her eyes shut tight. Slowly she relaxed and collapsed forward, panting and moaning. "Oh my god," she breathed. "Oh, fuck. I've never come like that in my life. Oh my fucking god."
She was bathed in a light film of sweat as she leaned back and let out a giddy laugh. "Whoa, my knees are wobbly. Holy fuck, that was something else. Did you like that, Piss Pot?"
"I loved it, Les," I said. I choked out a bit of a belch. My throat burned. I could feel her acid piss in my stomach. My prick was still steel-hard. I loved her talking to me this way.
"Call me Pisstress," she said with a giggle. Kathy and Marion chimed in with laughter.
"Ok," I said with a grin. "I loved it, Pisstress."
"What the hell," said Leslee. "I finally get the best fuck of my life and it turns out to be my baby brother. Life's a funny thing, huh?"
"Oh my god, tell me about it!" said Marion. "This is so amazing, but so weird! I want to keep him! We all have to leave in a day, what do we do then?"
"We'll worry about that later," said Kathy. "For now, let's just enjoy the day. I've got a few ideas yet. Should be fun for all of us. Well, maybe not Tom so much, but I guess we'll see there too, huh little Piss Pot?" she added with a grin.
I chuckled. "I've taken everything you've dished out so far, Kath. And I want more." I was not entirely confident in my bravado, since I had no idea what she had in mind, but the prospect did excite me. I belched a bit again and my throat felt irritated. My whole body was warm with pleasure though, and my cock was still erect and straining against my messed pyjama bottoms.
"Did you get all that on film?" asked Leslee as she rose somewhat unsteadily to the side of the bed.
"Sure did," replied Kathy. "This is going to be the hottest video ever in history, I think!"
"Uh, we can't show that, eh?" I remarked. "I've got my career to think about, not to mention the sibling factor..."
"Well, duh," scoffed Leslee. "Incest is still officially illegal as far as I know, and I don't know exactly what you have to do to get arrested, but I'm not interested in finding out. This was just for us. I want to watch that the second we get it downloaded! And I want to watch you jerk off watching it. Maybe we'll video that too!"
All three girls laughed. "Well no sense waiting, let's get this on to your computer!" exclaimed Marion.
"Hold on a minute," interjected Kathy. "I have to pee too, and Tommy's here in bed. I don't want to have to go all the way to the bathroom."
Marion chuckled, "Well ok, then! I don't think I have to pee, but I might be able to coax out a little bit for him. Let's take care of business first!"
My stomach gurgled and I belched out another bubble of air. My mouth began watering with the thought of accepting the payload from Kathy's bladder. My head was swimming and my prick bobbing lightly at full erection. My cock was so hard it almost hurt!
"Ok, on your knees, Piss Pot!" snickered Kathy with a smile, standing and spreading her feet, raising her T-shirt above her hips to expose her pussy. I obeyed quickly, shedding my pyjamas and kneeling before her on the carpet beside Leslee's bed. My heart was beating rapidly and once again my salivary glands kicked into overdrive. The back corners of my mouth ached as I looked up at Kathy, her curly red hair framing her cute, perky face and her ample boobs filling out her shirt. Her nipples were erect. "Should we record this?" she asked.
"Yeah, damn straight!" said Leslee. "I'll get the camera." She quickly retrieved it from the bed and kneeled down beside me. I felt a flush of embarrassment as she pointed it at me, but it just made my cock even stiffer as it pulsed in the open air. My stomach was churning as I anticipated her flow of urine. I was revolted at the thought she might taste as sour and strong as Leslee had, yet it turned me on all the more.
Kathy spread her labia and exposed the inner folds of her vulva. "Lean forward, Tommy! Open wide!" she crooned to me. I leaned in and reached around to grab her plump buttocks for support. "No hands!" she scolded. "Put your hands behind your back for me, Tommy!" I did as she bade me.
She spread herself even wider and placed her cunt right on my mouth. "Get ready, Tommy!" she smiled. "Here comes my pee pee!!"
A trickle of urine issued forth from her urethra into my waiting mouth. God almighty, it was so strong! So sour! Simply awful, foul, nauseating stuff! My nose instantly wrinkled and my face contorted in a grimace again. My mouth was overjuicing with saliva. I forced myself to swallow as she opened the floodgates in earnest, relaxing her bladder completely and filling my mouth. It was horrifying! My three sisters all burst out in a fresh round of cackling as I gagged and swallowed again.
Leslee trained the camera closely in on the action. "With god as my witness, I swear I will never, ever get tired of this as long as I live!" she panted. I choked. I used all my will to keep my mouth open and available for Kathy's urine stream. She filled my mouth and I chugged it down. It was an ecstasy of distaste and revulsion. I steeled myself and sucked hard on her pussy, drawing the urine out of her in into my mouth. Her burning hot tinkle gushed over my tongue and I consumed it with fierce determination. My head was spinning and my cock throbbing.
"Yeah, drink up all my hot piss, Tommy," she purred. "Drink it all up. Drink my pee pee. Look at his face!" she laughed, glancing over at Leslee and Marion. "Does that taste good? Do you like it? I can tell you like it. That's good, I've still got some more for you. Keep drinking!!"
I kept swallowing as she peed, and finally the flow of urine slowed. Kathy sighed a great sigh of contentment as she squirted the last few jets into my mouth. I gulped it down and began licking her pussy clean. I licked her clit in quick laps as I sucked her pudenda into my mouth. She hummed gently in pleasure and stepped back off my face.
"What are you doing, aren't you going to cum?" asked Leslee. "Don't you get off on that?"
"Yeah, it's awesome, but I dunno, I just can't relax enough," she replied. "I really don't cum that often anyway. This is a total turn on though. No offense to your lips and tongue, there Tom."
"None taken," I breathed. I kneeled on the carpet with a raging hard-on and my stomach doing cartwheels. I panted as I struggled to fight the waves of nausea. It felt like my two sisters' piss was eating a hole in the wall of my stomach. I was still incredibly aroused, but I was on the verge of vomiting.
Marion gracefully leapt to the carpet beside Kathy, beaming a smile. "My turn!" she exclaimed as she raised her nightshirt to reveal her bald snatch and began shuffling towards me. I heaved and a sour slug of regurgitated urine entered the back of my mouth. I focused myself and arduously swallowed it back down again. There was sweat on my brow and my breathing was shallow and quick. My face was involuntarily contorted in a mask of disgust and my eyes watered. "Oh, Tom, are you ok?" asked Marion, the smile fading from her face. She crouched down in front of me on the balls of her feet and looked into my eyes with a concerned expression. "Are you ok?" she repeated. "Can you do this? I only have a little, I promise." She gently held my face in her hands and time seemed to stop. "Can you drink my pee? I promise I will make it up to you."
I took a deep breath and nodded. She kissed my forehead and cool shivers overtook me. Goosebumps swept over my body and all was glorious bliss again. The disgusted, nauseating pangs in my belly turned to pleasure, and as waterlogged as I felt, I was suddenly eager and hungry for more piss. She leaned to my ear and whispered, "I promise I will make this up to you. I promise."
She then looked me in the eye again with a tentative smile, then stood in front of me and presented her quim before my mouth. In a trance, I leaned forward, closed my eyes, sealed around her labia and offered myself up for her relief. I felt the mildly abrasive stubble of her shaven mound and tasted the delectable salt of her inner lips. She obliged me quickly with a squirt of absolutely delicious urine, and at its contact with my tongue, my prostate began fluttering. My whole being was in complete ecstasy as three more small squirts of her pee entered my mouth. I voraciously sucked it down, complete, blissful joy vibrating through me. A few more tiny drips were all she had to offer me. I savoured each precious yellow gift she gave me. Her urine was nowhere near as sour and either of my other sisters', and in the state I was in, my tasted buds sang with overwhelming gratitude at every scrumptious molecule they received. I was over the moon.
I sucked hungrily on her pussy as I sought out more of her urine, licking her clean as I had done for my other sisters, and pleasuring her orally as best I could. She tensed up quickly, her amazingly toned legs bent slightly. She sighed and put her hands on my head to steady herself as I ate her out. Kathy and Leslee knelt close to watch as Leslee whispered encouragements to me. "Yeah, do it. Lick her out. Eat her pussy, Tommy. Eat Marion's pussy. Make her cum. I want to see you make Marion cum with your tongue, Tommy."
I was flicking my tongue rapidly on her clit now, beating it with a constant assault of intense, slippery pleasure. I sucked on her whole cunt as I did so, and soon Marion's breath became shallow, laboured and quick. "Mmmm" she moaned. I increased the pressure on her love button and sucked even harder. "MMMMMM!!" she moaned again. "MMMMM!! Yes!! Yes!!! Ohhhh, I'm gonna CUUMMMMM!!!!!!"
Her hips went wild with exaggerated undulations, bucking and jerking spastically. Her fingers intertwined into my hair and clenched into fists, threatening to tear it from my scalp. She called out in brazen lust, wailing and gasping as her tremendous orgasm wracked her body. She mashed her vagina onto my mouth as it sang its joyous contractions and quivered in release.
She finally pushed back from my lips and gasped, panting to catch her breath. "Ohhh, thank you, Tom, thank you so, so much, you have no idea...." she mumbled. She took a couple of deep breaths and regained her composure. "Ok, is that a wrap? What's next? Do we want to get Tom off here?" she inquired.
"No, no, I think Tom should cool his heels for a bit and suffer with that stiffie," Leslee said wryly. "Let's wait until we get these videos onto my computer. And I've got an idea or two yet."
"Ok, Tom, you got that?" smirked Kathy. "No cumming until we have this on the computer."
"Got it Kath," I replied. My hardon was still rampaging, but I ignored it. My belly gurgled, and I belched again. I was determined to keep my sisters' piss in my stomach. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to process it fast enough because I wanted to be sure I was ready for more, in case any of them had to pee again soon. "I'd better get some more water," I stated, and headed off to the kitchen.
I got a glass of water and downed it. That seemed to settle my stomach somewhat, so I poured another. Then I heard Leslee's voice call from down the hall, "We're going to have a shower, Tom. So no jerking off, you hear? I want those balls full for after!"
"You're all showering? Together? And I'm not invited?" I called back in mock disappointment. Or maybe it was a bit real. I was somewhat surprised that they were all showering together, but after recent events, I suppose it was not really shocking at all.
"Nope, we're discussing strategy," I heard her reply with a chuckle. I heard the bathroom door close, and the shower start. I decided to pass the time by making breakfast, so I got out a pan and retrieved some bacon and eggs from the fridge. I also put some coffee on. I figured we might as well get a jump on the day like Leslee had wanted. If we were going to spend time together and play weird games, we should make the most of it. My cock twitched a bit thinking of what my sisters had in store, or might come up with in the shower. My hardon had basically vanished at this point, though I was still a bit turned on, and my body was alive with energy.
Halfway through my cooking, I felt the urge to take a wicked leak. I went to the front hall bathroom, stood before the toilet and drained my bladder for what seemed like five solid minutes. The piss just wouldn't stop coming from my dick! I was worried that I would burn the eggs by the time I finally pushed the last drops out from my prostate and shook off to return to the kitchen. I quickly made my way back to my cooking duties and drank another three glasses of water. My stomach was feeling much better now. I felt confident that I was ready for more pee if my sisters had to go once they got out of the shower, which I kind of hoped that at least one of them would.
I had the meals of bacon, eggs and toast all served on plates and warming in the oven by the time they emerged from the bathroom. The sight of them took my breath away. Fresh, clean, moist from the shower, each one was her own version of loveliness. Kathy and Marion wrapped in towels and Leslee in her bathrobe quickly reminded me that I was naked.
"Tommy, I have something for you!" Marion exclaimed, lifting her towel above her midriff. I grinned and my cock twitched as I went to her and got down on my knees.

Beijing Adds More Than 1,200 Cars to Its Roads Daily in First Half of 2009
photo: Dan Sloane via flickr
Between January and July of 2009, Beijing streets were graced with an 1,231 additional cars per day on average, according to the Beijing Traffic Management Bureau (via: Economic Times). All those new cars add up to an additional 261,000 vehicles -- the vast majority of which are private cars. This is a 9% increase from the same period last year:Perhaps the only good news in this is that the 1,200+ figure is actually a decrease from the last time we learned of Beijing rapidly expanding: In the first 45 days of 2009 some 1,466 cars were being added to the already crowded streets.
China Has Highest Road Death Rate in the World
China has the highest number of road accident deaths in the world: 5.1 for every 10,000 cars. For sake of comparison, the United States has a death rate of 1.7 per 10,000 cars.

WOWSERS!!! In my last post I mentioned that I had a big day ahead yesterday, it was bigger than big, it was monumental!!
I'm not gonna' bang on about it... ('course I am).. I am fit to bursting with excitement so I'm going to share with you.. (it does have a fashion relevance, I promise, humour me...)
The day was my companies Annual Sales and Marketing Conference...The entire sales force (130 ish all dressed to impress), the Board, and a huge array of my peers from across the business were all gathered together...The day started with an overview of the last financial year and exciting news on new product launches, next came the "Recognition" part..The year had been personally challenging for me (I'm not going to bore you with that, you'd all be taking your toasters in the bath!), not to mention the bloody economic climate!!
Here's a little recap of my results..;
- Top sales performer in my division - (Kaboom).. Rewarded with a trophy and a bottle of Piper (personal favourite bubbly of choice)...
- Qualified as Global Elite (third year on the bounce, Double Kaboom) - The prize... A weekend in Prague, another bottle of Piper, a tailor made shirt of my choice from Finicky Shirts, tickets to the England v. France 6 Nations game at Twickenham, a magnetic globe thingy, a pair of unique cufflinks (for my new threads)
- Top sales performance in the WHOLE company....(It was a close race, high fiving myself if I'm being honest!)
- All of the above also secured me a holiday to Cancun at the end of March and another bottle of Piper!!
Obviously, I'm still a little giddy about it all so major apologies for some self indulgent bigging up...
|My little haul...!!
|The "Power Outfit" worn on the BIG day!
The day ended with a "Recognition Dinner" for the overachievers gang... The invite for the dinner defined the dress code as "smart casual"... I like to have guidance for events yet on the other hand, the smart casual thing is fairly broad and could go so horribly wrong... I decided that as it was a work do, to keep it smart ish (very little flesh) yet, not actual work clothes...Time to bust out the new ASOS shirt I mentioned in "Battered & Ripped.., you can buy the shirt here, the shoes also got a mention in that post. Again, these were from ASOS and although I love them for their versatility (and price), I feel now that wearing rusty razor blades would have been more comfortable by the end of the night!! ;
|Hotel rooms do not consider my need to take outfit photos..
The trousers are from Topshop (buy here).. I'm really pleased with them and have duly kicked the ass out of them since buying 4 weeks ago (they will be coming to Cancun with me, no doubt!)..
Although I didn't go too crazy with the free bar (lots of work to do today), I did have a couple (OK, a few) buckets of red wine...Needless to say I didn't feel as perky as one should after 4 hours sleep this morning (!!!).. When I packed on Sunday, I hadn't really thought through what I was going to wear today (gasps... I know, not great planning!!).. This was the hangover outfit (duvets are frowned upon, that would have been my first choice..)..;
|Leather, denim, lace and suede boots..I'm working the textures today!
I was completely thrown together but in honesty, kinda pleased with the result...The skirt is old, there are loads around though, a good trans-seasonal buy in my mind. Leather jacket, again an old one from Zara, it's tailored so works on my frame. The denim shirt... I did a lot of research to source the perfect one for me.. it's not too stiff, no extras like feature collars or studs so will stand the test of time a bit longer. It was a purchase last year from Mango and gets A LOT of wear. Lastly, the boots are from Topshop and are available online here...I love these boots, massively comfortable (perfect for shopping and also it appears, when your toes are like radishes because your new shoes from the night before acted as a tourniquet!!)
Back to it, I have a holiday, a weekend in Prague (with some VVIP's) and a trip to the Rugby to dress for... Honestly, my shallow self was barely off the stage after accepting the awards when my mind started to drift to planning the ensembles...
Since then, my (still swollen, considering icing them) feet have not touched the ground and in reality, I haven't really thought about it (much)..that was until my best buddy in Oz smugly emailed me a copy of her Topshop online order (impressive spree) that contained a bikini based on the Chloe one I swooned over a couple of weeks ago...I say swooned, I did order it and was overly excited when it arrived however, once on, it was borderline pornographic in cut on the top...I wiggled and jiggled but nah, certainly not suitable for a work trip.. it went back..;
|Left - Chloe bikini, Right - Topshop buy here.. it's a no brainer, right?
Whilst reviewing the Topshop bikini I saw they had loads more in.. I'm going to hold tight and leave it a few weeks as I'm not a fan of the tie side bottoms (hoping they will do a "big" pants version), my "swimwear fail paranoia" foresees way too many potential "incidents" ...(catching on the side of the sun bed..standing up..yeah, there is no coming back from that!)
One thing is for sure, I have some research and shopping to do (YAY!!) so I'll be keeping you updated...
I hope you all have a good Valentines, maybe you could show yourself some love.. ASOS have 10% off all orders* with the code VALENTINE10 at the checkout..(*they have some rules where the code doesn't apply, all shown on the homepage nice and clear).
Don't forget, you can follow me on Twitter @missionstyleuk...

The Mozilla Foundation on Wednesday shipped a new version of its flagship Firefox Web browser to patch a serious security hole that could put users at risk of computer takeover.
The flaw, which was discovered and reported by Internet Security Systems Inc., causes a buffer overflow because of the way GIF files are processed by Firefox.
Developed by CompuServe in the 1980s, the GIF format is widely used on the Web because of the improved file-compression features it offers.
"There have been no known exploits of the bug, but as Mozilla is committed to delivering the most secure product possible, we decided to quickly issue an update to patch the bug," said Chris Hoffman, director of engineering at Mozilla.
The Foundation did not offer any details on the vulnerability.
The release of Firefox 1.0.2 comes just one month after Mozilla shipped a major security overhaul for Firefox and underscores the challenges faced by the nonprofit foundation as it attempts to market a legitimate rival to Microsoft Corp.s dominant Internet Explorer browser.
However, Hoffman argued that the open-source nature of the software gives it a leg up in the area of security. "One of best parts of open-source software is that the code is available for anyone to review. Mozillas open-source software is inherently safer and more secure than traditional commercial code because it is scoured by thousands of contributors, developers and professionals, not just the companys development team," he said.
Despite the back-to-back Firefox patches, Hoffman argued that users should feel more secure knowing that Mozilla "is continually releasing proactive updates to the browser."
"In this case, the Foundation fixed the bug before any known exploits. Bugs and patches are part of the process for developing and distributing software, and consumers can rest assured that we are committed to a safe and secure browsing experience," he said.
Hoffman said the Foundation would continue to release security updates as they are warranted, and not on a fixed schedule. "Because of our strong community of developers, were able to turn around patches much faster than a traditional corporation."
In a not-so-subtle tweak at Microsoft, Hoffman said the recent growth of Firefox was not related to the back-to-back security patches. "It is not relational at all. Not being in the operating system and not supporting Microsofts proprietary Active X are phenomenal advantages for us," he said.

We started the celebration Christmas Eve at Granna and Opa's house (Matt's parents') and opened gifts with them and Matt's brother Andrew and our sister-in-law Alexis. Kate was more interested in eating crackers and cheese than in opening her gifts, but she did enjoy playing with her new giraffe riding toy. While she hasn't figured out how to propel herself with her feet yet, she does enjoy being pushed on it and can do a very deft dismount without falling!
After gifts with Matt's immediate family, his grandmother, aunt and uncle, cousin with wife and kids, Alexis' parents, and my parents arrived for a big family dinner. Kate had her own little plate, which she dumped on her high chair tray when we weren't looking.
After the church's Christmas Eve service, those who made the trek back to Clarksville with us came over for coffee and cookies, and Matt read The Night Before Christmas to Kate (and the rest of us).
Poor Kate was up a bit in the night (as she had been the night before) due to her cough and congestion, but was chipper in the morning as we all checked out what Santa brought us. Nala and Popi (my parents) were with us, and Santa found them here too! (here's Kate looking like Aretha Franklin at the Inaugeration)
When I was still pregnant, I asked my mom to make a stocking for Kate similar to the one she made for me when I was a baby. I had so much fun filling it with treats. I think that was my favorite part of Kate's first Christmas--finding and wrapping gifts for Kate. I didn't spend a lot (finding many of them at consignment sales, on eBay, and on sale at Target) but I really enjoyed doing that for her. See some of the fun things Kate received from her parents and other family members:
Of course, it's still better to give than to receive, and Kate made mugs for each of her grandparents, to celebrate their "first Christmas" as grandparents. (Sooooo hard to do baby handprints! Try the foot instead, add eyes and a red nose, and you've got a reindeer--the toes are like little antlers!)
I'm looking forward to so many more Christmasses as a family. We hope you all had a very merry Christmas, whether it was your first or your ninety-first!

Review: Standzout Helix Dock for Apple Watch
Company: Standzout
Model: Helix Dock
Compatability: Apple Watch
While we've seen plenty of Apple Watch docks since the smartwatch's release, we've yet to see one quite like Standzout's Helix Dock ($20). Helix Dock is one of the simplest Apple Watch docks we've ever seen — it's two pieces of plastic that latch together. That's it. It doesn't come with an Apple Watch cable or USB power adapter, so you'll have to supply those on your own. Nevertheless, Helix's design — which places an Apple Watch right next to an outlet — may prove intriguing to some, especially frequent travelers. Helix Dock comes in four different color options: clear, white, black, and glow-in-the-dark.
Helix Dock is a straightforward clear plastic dock, designed to be plugged directly into a wall outlet. An Apple Watch cable is inserted in the dock and wrapped around a cable storage space on the inside. The small Apple USB wall adapter is inserted into Helix, and then both plastic pieces are closed to make one secure wall adapter. The only customization possible is found in the position of the wall plug.
There's not much to Helix Dock, but its compactness is a definite plus. You don't have to fiddle with cables here — get it situated once, and you should be good to go. It's easy to pick up and throw in a bag for travel purposes. However, two obvious concerns pop up. First: will the wall outlets where you're going accommodate the plug? We'd guess affirmatively in most cases, but some outlet covers may make things tricky. Also: do you really want your Apple Watch charging right next to an outlet? If you're hesitant, we'd steer clear.
Honestly, what Helix Dock really does is take a cable and wall adapter you would have brought along anyway and keeps it in a tight, convenient package. It's relatively inexpensive compared to other docks — though it could be $5 to $10 cheaper — and compact, but it's also just two small pieces of plastic.

(CNN) - Hollywood, Frances McDormand wants you to ante up.
The actress took home the Oscar for best actress for her role in "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri" and used her acceptance speech to do something special.
"If I may be so honored to have all the female nominees in categories stand with me tonight, the actors, the filmmakers, the directors, the producers, the writers, the cinematographers, the composers, the designers," McDormand said, inviting the nominated women in the audience to rise from their seats.
She then made a plea to studios and producers.
"We all have stories to tell and projects we need financed," McDormand said. "Don't talk to us about it at the parties tonight. Invite us into your office in a couple days, or you can come to ours, whatever suits you best and we'll tell you all about them."
McDormand concluded her speech with a reference to entertainment industry contract requirements to establish gender and racial diversity on projects.
"I have two words to leave you with tonight," McDormand said. "Inclusion rider."
Annenberg Inclusion Initiative founder and director Stacy Smith discussed the concept in a 2016 TedWomen talk.
"What if those A-listers simply added an equity clause or an inclusion rider into their contract?" Smith had said in her talk, referring to Hollywood's "A-lister" top stars.
A typical feature film has about 40 to 45 speaking characters with about eight to 10 characters that are relevant to the story, she said.
"There's no reason why those minor roles can't match or reflect the demography of where the story is taking place," Smith said. "An equity rider by an A-lister in their contract can stipulate that those roles reflect the world in which we actually live."
An inclusion rider is designed to "ensure equitable hiring in supportive roles for women, POC, the LGBT community, & people w/disabilities," tweeted the Annenberg Inclusion Initiative, which studies diversity and inclusion in entertainment.
In reaction to McDormand's speech, the 2016 best actress Oscar winner Brie Larson tweeted: "I'm committed to the Inclusion Rider. Who's with me?"
The 90th Academy Awards wrapped an awards season punctuated by conversations about the treatment of women in the workplace, pay disparity and sexual misconduct.
McDormand is well known for her politically charged speeches and was even unnecessarily censored during her acceptance speech at this year's Golden Globes.

Getting ready for Thanksgiving this year was such a good experience. It wasn't at all hectic. Everyone was helpful. And...I didn't have to work or be on call! The kids always enjoy helping with the cooking so the food preparation that Thanksgiving brings, was fun for them! Don't they look so sweet here! I told them that they were displaying great teamwork and that the Wonder Pets (TV characters that base their show on situation that call for working together) would be so proud! It also made their Momma very proud!
The funny thing about this picture is that the apron says, "This Lady Can Cook"!
I thought that Easton would be in the best mood. He had taken an early nap, and had also only had a light breakfast. I thought he would be ready to eat, eat, eat! As you can see, I thought wrong. This is what he did the whole time we ate! He was not still tired...just grumpy!
Here is Parker, eating with Jacob! He actually ate quite a bit, but of course was ready to be done eating and to start playing with his cousin Jacob! I told him that Thanksgiving was about eating! Not playing! Ha ha ha!
We ate at Randy and Susie's house this year. We trade back and forth between my parent's and Steven's parent's houses each yr to make it a little less hectic. It is so nice staying in one place! The food was fantastic and the company was great! I am not quite as good of a mom, though when we are there! I am too consumed by my desire to chat with everyone, that I completely forget to chase my kids. Sorry to anyone who watched my kids more than I did! I guess that shows how much I enjoy my in-laws!
I wanted to take more pictures, but I guess I forgot!

It's a tradition. Another Windows release, another non-reviewer's review by yours truly. (I call my reviews "non-reviewer" ones because unlike some of my colleagues, I don't do many and definitely don't do them as thoroughly, with all the speeds and feeds.)
I've had a chance to use the upcoming Windows 10 Anniversary Update preview (the Pro version) for the past few days. I am one of the few dedicated Microsoft watchers who haven't been installing and running the 25 interim test builds of this Windows 10 release over the past few months. I've only been using the November update (Build 1511) on my Acer S7 and other loaner devices since it was made available last fall. So the Anniversary Update is completely brand-new to me.
Microsoft doesn't want us to call the build we've been testing "RTM" (release to manufacturing) because Windows 10 is a continually updated service. Company officials want us to say we're using the latest preview release.
However, Build 14393, which testers got last week and which I installed on a couple of devices last week, is effectively the "Release to Mainstream" version of Windows 10 1607. (Hat tip to Ali Robertson for the idea of what to rename RTM.) The Windows 10 Anniversary Update version that Microsoft will begin rolling out to users on August 2 is going to be this code base plus updates that Microsoft makes between last week and next Monday.
This release is the second major feature update to Windows 10 since Microsoft initially introduced the operating system on July 29, 2015. (The first was the Fall 1511 update.) Microsoft isn't keen on us using the old "service/feature pack" nomenclature, either, but Windows 10 Anniversary Update is basically the equivalent of Windows 10 Feature Pack 2. This is a rollup of performance, reliability, bug fixes and new feature updates for Windows 10 that Microsoft has developed since last fall.
From a consumer standpoint, there are a few main features in this release that existing Windows 10 users will notice...
