I wouldn't have seen this movie if not for someone I call "Mr." suggested that I see it. And now I'm thanking him for doing so. Thanks to him I had a good weekend night!
Talking about the movie, it's pretty simple and plain but the script was beautifully made. The writer must be a genius or something! I liked how it was situated in a more relatable environment. Since I'm a big fan of coffee, I typically spend a lot of time in coffee shops. Whether I'm alone or not, rainy or sunny, sleepless or well rested, it's always good to have a cup of that addicting beverage in a nicely decorated area.
So losing that special place could be really upsetting. I know I won't do something like what those 3 crazy idiots did but I will surely be sad over it.
Not to mention Groban's appearance here; I never knew he'd consider being on the big screens! If I would pick my favorite scenes, it'd be the ones with him on it. Now I don't know if I could take him seriously when he sings now.
This movie deserves a mighty 10. It is original, hilarious and not so mainstream. I love it! In addition to that Glenn Howerton's eyes are oh-so pretty that I can't leave it unsaid! So yeah! Now get out of here and watch it!

Bright and sunny (?)
The weather today has been strange; bright and sunny, windy and mild, snow storm, raining cats and dogs. That's only during a couple of hours. Anyway, I managed to get an OK picture of the yellow bag in the relatively strong wind. The bag is to be a farewell present to a colleague who is leaving for Bergen. The yellow fabric is plastic coated, and that is perfect for the wet climate in the western part of Norway.

Profile Information
My name isn't really Edenway, but for personal reasons, I'd prefer not to share it. Edenway comes from Ernest Hemingway and my personal favorite name-Eden. If I could be one person for the day-dead or alive-I would be Hemingway. For me, his writing is unforgettable and I wish more people read his works instead of mainstream books which are made popular today because less people are pushing the boundaries of creativity and imagination.
Anyway, enough of my ramblings. I'm 17 years old, but I've been writing and reading ever since I could remember. Originally, I was born in Russia, but I've lived in Israel, America, and Canada. Currently, I'm attending boarding school in England and I hope to pursue English at Oxbridge or elsewhere in England. I went into boarding school last year, in a different country, not knowing anyone. I can tell you firsthand-all the cliche stories of the "pretty-new girl being bullied but finding her Prince Charming and everyone loving her even though she is poor" is completly false. For starters, nobody in prestigious prep school's really cares about money or how attractive you are. It comes down to wether or not you're sociable and friendly instead of scheming and gossiping. If anybody wants to know more about what it's like to attend private school, I can give you a very detailed-yet boring-account, I've attended a couple in my day and I can garuntee that it's really not like what you read about.
I have a very supportive group of friends, a boyfriend, and a family which inspires me to write every day. I've won a short story competition with my work Misconception which was judged by a Times Literary Magazine journalist. I also started a Writer's Group in my school and I have almost as much books as I have clothes-which trust me-is way too much.
If you want me to review and critique any of your work, don't be afraid to leave me a comment. Yes, I can be harsh sometimes but I find that the writing on Booksie is very unoriginal and cliche. I realize that "The Hunger Games", "Twilight", and "50 Shades of Grey" are all great novels for some people, but to be honest with you-it's utter and complete garbage. I've read all three books and their series and all I could think about whilst reading each book was how it's a rip off of another book just watered down to feed the hungry masses of our mindless generation.
So push the boundaries and push your limits, because that's the only way you can push yourself! :)

Wall St. and Business Wednesdays: Investment Anxiety Spurs Bag-Lady Fears
by Gail MarksJarvis
Can it be that smart, capable women are so worried about investing and planning for their future that they actually think they will end up living retirement as bag ladies?A recent survey suggests that a substantial number of successful women are thinking that way. Harris Interactive recently sampled attitudes from about 1,925 women in its database. The sample involved women who have responded to previous polls, not women randomly plucked from the U.S. population, so I cannot tell you if the survey reflects the nation's women as a whole. But the findings are startling.About 46 percent of the women surveyed said they worry about losing all their money and becoming bag ladies. And high incomes apparently are no cure. Among women with incomes over $100,000, 48 percent imagined themselves digging through the garbage, or whatever else bag ladies do.The research was done for Allianz Life Insurance Co., so of course you can read an agenda into this. But the findings mesh with what I have been hearing from financial planners and investment managers for years. The planners tell me that even women with millions worry about money and live in fear of running out of it. Even when the professionals lay out the facts in dollars and cents, some of these women are afraid to relax. If you have thoughts on this, I'd love to hear them.According to the Harris researchers, only 10 percent of women said they feel extremely secure about their finances. And 54 percent of women surveyed who said they "are always struggling to make ends meet" said they were "hoping that Prince Charming will make everything OK."Harris also surveyed 1,258 men and found significantly different responses.Women were almost twice as likely as the men to worry about money and doubt their abilities to invest and plan for the future. Of course, that did not include all women. About 20 percent described themselves as "Wonder Women" "capable of handling whatever comes their way."Still, 62 percent said they were so confused or unknowledgeable about investing that they deferred decisions to others, procrastinated or stayed away from financial planning and investing. About 57 percent said they wished they had learned about money and finance in school.The women want financial security, rating it 15 to 20 times more important to them than money-related status or respect.Among those surveyed, white women were the most nervous; Hispanic women and African-American women were more confident.When questioned about their approach to investing and handling money, 40 percent of Hispanic women and 32 percent of African-American women described themselves as "analytical." But only 24 percent of white women displayed that confidence. On the other end of the spectrum, 24 percent of white women described themselves as "pessimistic" about handling money, while less than 4 percent of Hispanic and African-American women were that skeptical of their ability.Allianz said that by 2010, women are expected to control 60 percent of the wealth in the nation. But while many women consider themselves perceptive and intuitive in other aspects of their life, they lacked that confidence when it came to money.For example, 51 percent said they considered themselves "perceptive" in some matters, but only 13 percent felt that way about money. Among the men surveyed, significantly more had confidence about handling money. About 40 percent described themselves as "analytical" about investing and financial matters, and only 23 percent said they worried.Meanwhile, very few parents are doing much to put the next generation of women on a better footing. Only 18 percent of the women surveyed said they had "spent a lot of time teaching my daughter or daughters to be financially independent." And only 4 percent of fathers had tried to help their daughter understand how to plan for their futures or invest money.Gail MarksJarvis can be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Hi Robert, first of all, many thanks for introducing Lucid Dreaming in all its glory to us. I've bought both of your books and immensely enjoyed reading them. I've also gifted them to my friends. I took up Lucid Dreaming because of you. 🙂
Now to the question: at times, my reality check – finger through palm – failed in my dreams. So I took them to be real and missed on becoming lucid. At times I remembered to perform more than one RC and was able to become lucid even when the first failed; but I don't always remember that while in a dream. So I was wondering why this RC would fail some times, and if there was a way to prevent that from happening.
Hi Shriniwas,
Glad you enjoyed my books, and have gifted them to your friends. Thanks!
I feel that almost every lucid dream has had a moment, when the 'reality check' does not work. When that happens, it seems a good idea to have a second reality check (such as levitating, or pulling the finger to see if it grows, etc.).
Sometimes in a lucid dream, if our hands (or the wall) seems 'real', then we can not push our finger through it — because we 'believe' strongly in its reality. But if we change our mind, and suddenly think, 'My hand is made of dream stuff' or 'This wall is made of dream stuff' then we can likely push our finger through it.
Of course, when we first become lucid, we may feel a bit uncertain. That explains why having a second reality check seems a brilliant idea.
It may help to experiment with reality checks and determine which one seems to work best almost all the time. For me, floating just a bit seems the thing. But for someone else, it might be holding their nose.
Lucid wishes,

I probably have too many notebooks. But each one was purchased with a specific purpose in mind.
I keep a journal in a Quo Vadis Habana.
I'm keeping some Bible Study notes in a Rhodia Webnotebook.
And I use this humble composition notebook to keep lesson planning notes in.
I thought I would stack them up and snap a few photos of the notebooks I am writing in at the moment.
Sometimes I practice my handwriting -
I don't have a problem, do I?

Consistent BP Improves Post-Stroke Outcomes
(HealthDay News) — For individuals with stroke, consistency of blood pressure (BP) control during two years of follow-up affects outcomes, according to a study published online March 27 in Stroke.
Amytis Towfighi, MD, from the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, and colleagues conducted a post-hoc analysis of 3,680 individuals from the Vitamin Intervention for Stroke Prevention Trial with recent stroke (<120 days) who were followed for two years. Participants were categorized according to the proportion of visits in which blood pressure was controlled (<140/90mm Hg).
The researchers found that controlled BP was achieved by 30% of participants ≥75% of the time. For individuals with baseline systolic BP >132mm Hg, consistency of BP control affected outcomes. For individuals with baseline systolic BP >75th percentile (>153mm Hg), lower risks of primary (stroke) and secondary (stroke, myocardial infarction, or vascular death) outcomes were seen for those with BP controlled at ≥75% vs. <25% of visits (adjusted hazard ratios, 0.46 and 0.51, respectively). The risks of primary and secondary outcomes were lower for those with mean follow-up BP of <140/90mm Hg versus ≥140/90mm Hg (adjusted hazard ratios, 0.76 and 0.76).
"Fewer than one-third of patients with stroke had BP controlled ≥75% of the time for two years," the authors write. "Consistency of BP control among those with elevated baseline systolic BP was linked to reduction in risk of recurrent stroke and stroke, myocardial infarction, and vascular death."

When i was young things were very different. Back then, not that many people went to university. Some didn't go because they couldn't afford it and others didn't go because they didn't want to.
Many of them left school early to start working or learned a trade. The job market wasn't that competitive so it wasn't really necessary to have a degree in order to get a job.
Once you were employed, if you were diligent and hard working, you could work your way up in the company. Many managing directors with little formal education had been with their company all their working life.
How to Work an Education
Some of them had started as a messenger, sweeper or in some other low position. They got to know the business as they moved their way up the ladder.

Transit Dreams
Antonio Simon, Jr.
Darkwater Syndicate (2014)
Reviewed by Paige Lovitt for Reader Views (02/15)
"Transit Dreams" by Antonio Simon, Jr. contains an intriguing collection of twenty-two short stories that were captured from the author's vivid imagination. Each tale is unique and written in its own style. The genres range from horror to comedy. Some of the horror stories are just a bit creepy, while others evoke a stronger reaction. I also found some of the tales humorous and very reflective of a snapshot taken from a typical day in someone's life. An example of this is a story based upon a boy's experience with a nun in a classroom. It is fun to read about someone else's observations of life, especially if it involves people watching, like one of the stories that takes place in a bar. Other stories reflect elements of fantasy, which also makes for a nice escape.
I enjoyed reading "Transit Dreams" by Antonio Simon, Jr. I feel that many readers, especially those who don't have time to sit down and get lost in a large novel, will enjoy being able to take a break and read these tales. It is also a great read for someone who uses public transit to get to work. It will give them a chance to sit back and let their mind wander while someone else does the driving.

Congratulations on making it to the final step of Investing for Beginners 101! I've done my best to save the best for last, but each part of this guide is equally important and I encourage those who have skipped sections to go back and read what was missed. Ending with the best way to avoid risk, here are the 7 parts of the Investing for Beginners 101 guide.
1. Why to Invest?
2. How the Stock Market Works
3. The BEST Stock Strategy and Buying Your First Stock
4. P/E Ratio: How to Calculate the Most Widely Used Valuation
5. P/B, P/S: The Single Two Ratios Most Correlated to Success
6. Cashing In With a Dividend Is a Necessity
7. The Best Way to Avoid Risk, and Putting it all Together!!
In this final step, you will learn what I've found to be the best way to discover and avoid risk to save yourself from catastrophic losses. Through many back tests for my Value Trap Indicator dating back to 1994, I've found a common characteristic in companies about to experience substantial stock price drops or bankruptcy. These companies would consistently score above 1,000 on my Value Trap Indicator, triggering a strong sell in my system before the stock price greatly deteriorated. The common characteristic I discovered was too much debt when compared to shareholder's equity.
Avoid Risk by Avoiding Debt
Debt to equity is a common measure of risk in investing. If you think about it, it makes sense too. A person more likely to become bankrupt is one with too much debt, and the same is true for companies. If the company considered doesn't have enough assets to cover their liabilities, or shareholder equity, then they have debt to equity ratios that skyrocket to the sky. Financial companies like banks have extremely high debt to equity ratios compared to other industries because of the nature of their business, but in my opinion you can still use debt to equity ratio to determine their risk as well. For a normal company, you want to see a debt to equity ratio that is at least below 1. For financial companies, a number below 10 is best to avoid risk. A company like Lehman Brother's had a debt to equity ratio of 60 right before their bankruptcy, and my Value Trap Indicator would've triggered a strong sell signal to prevent investors from losing their shirts at that time. Many investors overlook the debt to equity ratio and in turn become shocked at seeing staggering portfolio losses, which is why I've saved this ratio as the last and most important one. Now that I've uncovered its importance, it's time to show how to calculate debt to equity ratio.
There are two ways to calculate debt to equity ratio, using total liabilities or looking at only long term debt. It's important to consider total liabilities instead of only long term debt because a company should be able to cover all their total liabilities with their total assets in case of a financial struggle. Also, a company with less total liabilities is obviously in a favorable financial condition and this must be accounted for. Debt to equity ratio is the total liabilities divided by shareholder's equity, which is total assets minus total liabilities. The lower the ratio, the more likely to avoid risk.
As can be seen from the picture above, Citigroup ($C) had a debt to equity ratio of $1,673,663/ $189,049 = 8.85. This number is under 10, which is in the preferred range for financial companies to avoid risk.
Debt to equity = total liabilities / shareholder's equity
Debt to equity = total liabilities / (total assets minus total liabilities)
With this final lesson, I've equipped all my readers with the tools they need to get started investing in the stock market. You know how to avoid risk, calculate important ratios, and dollar cost average. I hope you've enjoyed Investing for Beginners 101, as I've enjoyed sharing what I know and have learned through various sources. I strongly urge my readers to take the next step and apply what they have learned to make specific stock selections starting as soon as possible. To quantify this stock picking format into an easy to follow method, I've formulated my Value Trap Indicator to explicitly state whether a stock is a buy or not. Using the 7 steps of this Investing for Beginners 101 guide, my Value Trap Indicator assigns any stock a number, with a strong buy being 0-100, a buy being 101-125, and a strong sell being larger than 800. My Value Trap Indicator showed an 800+ score for both Lehman Brothers and Circuit City the year right before their bankruptcies.
I've also performed multiple back tests in which my Value Trap Indicator had greatly outperformed the S&P 500, by buying stocks near their lows and selling stocks with bad financials and also near their highs. I present the method completely in my ebook, which is available soon, complete with back tests and free excel spreadsheets that perform the calculations for you based on numbers you input from the 10-k annual report. I've clearly shown where these numbers can be found in each step of my guide, and I am extremely confident that the money you spend on the ebook will pay for itself multiple times over. If for whatever reason you are unsatisfied in the first 30 days, I will refund your money completely! That's how good I feel about this discovery I've made, I know it can help any investor at any skill level. Being an electrical engineer, numbers is my passion and it took much tweaking and playing with the numbers until I formulated the perfect indicator for buying and selling stocks. I urge you to try it.

This bike is 2006 Yamaha TT-R125L. It has NEVER been laid over no scratches on the engine or anything. It's a 4 stroke. It has sat in a garage for a year but then I bought it. I ride it once it gets started but it's just when you start it and when it idles which the more you ride it the better it will be. It needs ether to start and have to keep the engine revved a little or turn the wheel right. It is odd but it works. It has a clutch with 5 gears. Says it goes 60 but i probably got 50-55 with it. The price is 1200 OBO. Text preferred but call is ok too. If I don't answer the call text me. Thanks! The bike looks wonderful never laid over or anything but just a little carburetor issue. Just shoot me an offer. I WILL trade, worst I can say is no. I only want fourwheelers, golf carts dirtbikes just let me know.

Viridian Feature Set Trimmed10 May 2007 · Filed in News
Microsoft has been hyping up its Windows Hypervisor ("Viridian") for quite some time now, talking about how the Viridian feature set is going to leapfrog functionality that is currently available on the market. Now, in this article posted this morning, Microsoft has revealed that they have to pull three key features from Viridian in order to meet its delivery schedule.
Of the three features being cut, the most notable to me is live migration. VMware users will know this better as VMotion, the ability to move a live VM from one physical host to another with no downtime. This is a key enabling technology, and the fact that Microsoft won't have this functionality is a huge win for VMware (and, to a lesser extent, XenSource).
But live migration isn't the only feature on the cutting block:
The initial release of Viridian also won't support on-the-fly, or "hot," adding of memory, storage, processors or network cards. And it will support computers with a maximum of 16 processing cores—for example, eight dual-core chips or four quad-core chips.
I agree with the article's author that limiting support to 16 cores isn't a huge deal, at least not now. A year from now? Hard to say for sure if it will be an issue then, and if I were VMware or Xen I'd make sure my software didn't have that limit. Even if it doesn't matter, let's face it: marketing is half the battle, and saying that your product can handle more horsepower than Microsoft's product can't hurt.
Likewise, "hot adding" resources isn't a big deal today. The article points out that Xen has this capability today; VMware does not. (As an aside, I'm curious to know if Xen's hot-add functionality is only supported for modified guests. Anyone know?) Note that the article is incorrect in pointing out that hot-add support is mitigated somewhat by live migration; that would be true only for adding resources to the host, not the guest. Without hot-add support, we would still require downtime at the guest level.
It's not all good for VMware, though. In my humble opinion, VMware needs to stay vigilant and not discount Microsoft (or Xen) as a competitor. If they get complacent, then they will most assuredly lose their leadership position. VMware needs to continue to innovate and drive the market to new areas that were previously considered impossible (such as the experimental Record/Replay support in the newly released VMware Workstation 6.0). What is possible now with Record/Replay? How could this functionality be used in ways that people aren't considering today? Can we continue to add value to ACE and VDI deployments by combining these technologies? It probably would be a good idea for them to release VDM (Virtual Desktop Manager), currently available only through a professional services engagement, to the public as a product as well.
VMware has a tremendous lead in the virtualization market, but smart, nimble, and powerful competitors are waiting for a misstep. Here's hoping there isn't one.

One of the problems that have been holding back fuel cell technology from wide scale adoption has been the cost -- fuel cells harness electricity created when two materials are mixed together in the presence of a chemical catalyst, which so far has been something expensive like a platinum alloy.
Researchers at Brigham Young University think they have a better idea -- use cheap, widely available weed killer as a catalyst.
Gerald Watt, a professor at BYU (and direct decendent of James Watt, the inventor of the steam engine), announced the development of a new kind of fuel cell that creates electricity from glucose and other sugars using a common weed killer as the catalyst.
Their paper will be published in the October issue of the Journal of The Electrochemical Society. Since writing the paper, Watt's team has already doubled the power performance of their cell.
I'm not super excited about the idea of having to dump bottles of pesticides in my (future) car, but it is a good reminder that we haven't even begun to scratch the surface of what's possible with fuel cell and other renewable technologies. Today we figured out how to run a fuel cell with pesticides; hopefully tomorrow we'll find out how to do it with something more benign.
Mr. Watt's discovery is all the more important because the carbohydrate-based fuel cells his team is working on are powered by plant-derived fuelstocks, not liquid hydrogen, which can be more difficult and expensive to store and transport. The world needs cheap fuel cells.

Author: Elizabeth Varlet
Publisher: Carina Press
Cover Artist: Unknown
Rating: 4.5 of 5 Stars
Publication Date: 06/27/2016
Length: Novel (~ 50K-100K)
Genre: Gay Romance
Fans of Heidi Cullinan will devour this scorching new male/male series by Elizabeth Varlet. Behind the Sassy Boyz's seductive smiles and sinful dance moves are desires that will leave readers breathless.
Fitch Donovan never thought a lap dance could change his life, but from the moment the gorgeous dancer's lips touch his, his world comes screeching to a halt. No matter how hard he tries, he can't shake the desire that rocks him to his core. He's longed for this passion all his life—he just never dreamed he'd find it with another man.
Sharing a soul-shaking kiss with a straight boy is the kind of drama Ansel Becke just doesn't need. Spotlights aren't made for two and Ansel prefers to keep things on a one-night-only basis. So when Fitch shows up asking for an encore, Ansel knows he should send his gorgeous ass packing.
Though Ansel tries to pretend that what's between him and Fitch is far from fabulous, there's something about the big, burly contractor that makes Ansel's world sparkle in a way no amount of glitter ever could. And Fitch will do whatever it takes to convince Ansel that when the thing you need most in the world falls right into your lap, you'd be a fool to let it go.
My View:
It pays to stalk people's shelves on Goodreads – I do this a lot! If I hadn't been stalking I wouldn't have found this little gem by an author I had not yet come across.
Fierce and Fabulous is just what it says – fierce and fabulous. Those two words can be used to describe Ansel Becke in everything he does. At first glance he appears cocky and confident which gives him the fierce and then he sends a big fuck you to gender stereotypes with all his fabulousness. I have great envy for anyone who can walk in heels – I am totally jealous of anyone who can dance in the damn things – Ansel and the gang can dance and do so much more!
Fitch ends up in a gay club for his sisters 21st birthday and is completely smitten with the girl dancing on stage, until he realises it's a man, then he is completely smitten with the man dancing on stage. When his sister and her friends pay for Fitch to have a lap dance from the man then things get tricky. I'm not doing labels with this one. Fitch hasn't had a relationship with a man before but that doesn't mean anything when the minute Ansel is near him he's flushing hot, adjusting his jeans and ends up kissing the man. From then on Fitch can't get the man out of his mind and the road is about to get rocky and not for the reasons you would presume. Fitch just wants to spend time with Ansel, begs for the time to get to know him but Ansel has secrets and a whole heap of problems.
Ansel is part of a group of four that make up Sassy Boyz. They are indeed sassy but they are also family. We don't learn all their stories, I'm sure we will in future books, but it's clear to see they have all lived through bad stuff and that has led them to where they are today. They are extremely protective of each other whilst at the same time bitching each other out – they have formed a family and it means everything to them.
As Ansel slowly unravels we learn about the demons he is fighting and Fitch bless him is there every step of the way. We also get his attitude in full glory usually whilst wearing killer heels and more often than not whilst he is gyrating on stage and taking no prisoners. This book was a total surprise and I absolutely loved it! Now to sit and wait patiently for the next of the Sassy Boyz to take front and centre.

In the last few months, we have added a few people to our Sea Grant team. And, we expect to be adding more in the near future. It's exciting to see new members on our team. It's also great to see that some of our programs are growing. For example, oyster gardening has long been established in Alabama, but a program will be starting this summer in Mississippi. And, efforts to support oyster farming in both Alabama and Mississippi are growing support.
Here's a look at several newer members of our Sea Grant team and some information about the people we plan to bring on board soon.
Rusty Grice, an oyster aquaculture business specialist, is helping new oyster farmers navigate their way through permits and other requirements needed to begin an oyster farming business. He is also working to help established oyster farmers streamline their harvest reporting procedures and other administrative tasks. You can check out his webpage dedicated to oyster farming here.
Amanda Seymour is our new fiscal officer. She's in the office next to mine at the Gulf Coast Research Lab. Amanda manages Mississippi-Alabama Sea Grant funds. She previously worked at The University of Southern Mississippi's Division of Marine Science at Stennis Space Center, Miss., where she served as the business manager and managed grants, contracts and department funds.
Tara Skelton is a new addition to Mississippi-Alabama Sea Grant and the Gulf of Mexico Sea Grant Oil Spill Science Outreach Team. She is an oil spill science communicator and provides communications services for the regional oil spill science outreach program, which has received funding in 2016 to continue its work for three more years.
Beth Walton, who did a lot of outreach for Alabama MarketMaker through Mississippi-Alabama sea Grant in the recent past, has been hired as the coordinator for the Gulf of Mexico Regional Shellfish Initiative. She will be working out of the Mobile, Alabama, office and the Ocean Springs, Mississippi, office. Her role will be to find goals common to stakeholders across all the Gulf states in promoting a critical clean water industry that supports the region's environment, economy and culture.
Also, we are reviewing applications for an administrator for the Mississippi Oyster Gardening Program, and applications are being accepted for a national water extension liaison (who will be based at National Water Center on the campus of the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa). We are also continuing our search for an attorney to serve as senior research counsel for the Mississippi-Alabama Sea Grant Legal Program, and we soon will be making an announcement about a new fisheries extension specialist who will join our team!

How to handle the holidays with children
>> Thursday, December 20, 2012
- You may have to skip things, or spend less time at gatherings. With a new baby, most times you will suffer the consequences of throwing them off their routine for days after the actual event you attend. If you're willing to accept that fact, then go right on ahead and do everything like you did the year before. If you're not, then chances are you'll have to plan your holiday get together's around your baby's schedule. That may mean skipping later parties or only coming and staying for an hour or skipping the sit-down meal.
- Keep extra sets of clothes in your car or diaper bag. Chances are either you or your babe are going to end up with some sort of explosion on you, whatever kind that may be, and it always ends up happening when you're already dressed for the event. Keep an extra set of clothes handy for both you and baby!
- Try Santa pictures with your babe, but be prepared for it to not work. Most parents who celebrate Christmas look forward to their child's first picture with Santa, but it can go from a fun experience to a meltdown in record time. Plan ahead to have one parent close to your child and one parent taking extra pictures, because you are going to need to double team this one in case of a scary Santa encounter.
- Make your own new holiday traditions. Sure, it's easy to focus on how different the holidays will be from now on initially, but there are plenty of new traditions you can develop for your own family. Have a cranky little one? Try putting them in their car seat for a drive while you and your significant other or spouse looks at holiday lights. Calming for the baby, fun for mom & dad.
What are some ways your holidays have changed since having a child?

By a wide variety of measures, the injectable biologic was equivalent to the IV formulation in a pivotal 1,457-patient trial, said Mark Genovese, MD, of Stanford University.
He added that it was even better than the IV version in one respect -- the same equivalence was seen with a fixed, 150-mg dose of the subcutaneous formulation, whereas the IV form has to be adjusted for the patient's body weight.
The study, which Genovese reported at the American College of Rheumatology meeting, paves the way for abatacept to become available for patients to use at home.
The currently approved version of abatacept must be given by IV infusion, typically on a monthly basis. In the trial, patients assigned to the injectable form received an initial IV loading dose followed by weekly subcutaneous injections.
The trial was structured as a noninferiority study, with the ACR20 response rate -- the percentage of patients showing at least a 20% reduction in symptoms -- after six months as the primary outcome measure.
The prespecified criterion for noninferiority was at least 70% preservation of the IV formulation's treatment efficacy. That worked out to a maximum shortfall of 2.1% percentage points for the injectable versus IV version, Genovese explained.
As it turned out, the definition could have been much stricter without changing the outcome.
The ACR20 response rate at six months was 76.1% for the injectable form and 75.7% for the IV version, Genovese reported, easily meeting the noninferiority standard.
Outcomes were also nearly identical for a host of other outcomes -- ACR20/60/70 response rates on a monthly basis, DAS28-defined remission and low-activity rates, responses on the Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index, and adverse events.
Genovese also showed data indicating that responses to the flat-dose injectable form did not differ by body weight, at least when stratified into broad categories.
Patients weighing less than 60 kg (132 lbs) assigned to the IV formulation received 500 mg in their monthly infusion; those weighing 60 to 100 kg (220 lbs) received 750 mg; and those weighing more than 100 kg received 1,000 mg. All patients assigned to the injectable form received 150 mg regardless of body weight.
Six-month ACR20 response rates were 79.0% for the injectable form at 150 mg and 82.3% for the IV form in patients weighing less than 60 kg.
Response rates were nearly equal in the midrange weight group.
In the higher-weight category, response rates were 69.6% and 64.0% for the injectable and IV forms, respectively.
The trial included a double-blind, double-dummy design such that patients assigned to the subcutaneous abatacept group also received placebo infusions, and those randomized to the IV form received placebo injections.
Certain injection-site reactions were slightly more common with the subcutaneous form, including itching and erythema, although both were seen in less than 1% of patients. The overall rate of injection-site complaints was almost the same at about 2.5%.
Genovese indicated that the number of patients developing anti-abatacept antibodies was small in both groups, 1.1% with the injectable form and 2.3% with the IV version.
Session moderator Vibeke Strand, MD, also of Stanford University but not involved with the study, called the data "very robust" regarding the formulations' clinical equivalence and said the availability of an injectable form would be good for patients.
"I'm convinced," she told MedPage Today. "It's going to be convenient."
Abatacept is approved for juvenile idiopathic arthritis as well as for adult rheumatoid arthritis. The study did not address the subcutaneous formulation's equivalence to the IV version in children.
In addition to the pivotal study reported here by Genovese, the subcutaneous form's safety was also addressed in three smaller trials, one published in 2009 and the other two reported here in poster form. Those studies looked at the effects of switching from IV to subcutaneous administration, treatment interruptions, and the presence of background methotrexate.
The study was funded by Bristol-Myers Squibb.
Genovese reported consulting fees from Bristol-Myers Squibb. Several co-authors were employees of the company. Other authors also reported consulting or speaking fees from Bristol-Myers Squibb as well as other firms including Schering-Plough, Wyeth, Centocor, Lilly, Abbott, Pfizer, Roche, and UCB.

Watch Sophia Grace Talk Kylie Jenner, Rosie and That Infamous Pink Dress
Sophia Grace is all grown up!
The "Why U Mad?" singer sat down for an exclusive interview with E! News where she dished on everything from her cousin Rosie to Ariana Grande to Keeping Up with the Kardashians star, Kylie Jenner.
"We're cousins, but we're kind of like sisters," Sophia said of Rosie while chatting with Erin Lim. "We're really close and we speak to each other every day."
Fans may remember Sophia and Rosie from their appearances on The Ellen DeGeneres Show where they served as red carpet reporters. They also famously covered Nicki Minaj's "Super Bass" that has more than 53 million views online.
Sophia continued, "I guess [Rosie and I] could do some collabs in the future, I do think it'd be really fun. When we were younger, we always used to make really weird stuff on iMovie on my phone, but I feel like people would love to see that. I don't know where those videos are now, but one day they might come out somewhere."
And while on the topic of Rosie, Sophia revealed that she and her cousin have retired their infamous pink dresses…for now.
"I mean, I don't know," she told Erin when asked if she'd ever wear it again. "I guess I'm older now. Maybe Halloween I could be myself. Me and Rosie could be ourselves for Halloween. How have I never thought of that before? I'm going to do that this year!"
As for the celebrities she looks up to, Sophia was quick to share her answer.
"I think Ariana Grande is a great person to look up to," she revealed. "She's multi-talented and she can sing, dance and act, so she really inspires me to be who I am."
And regarding her favorite person to follow on social media? Non-other than the queen of lip kits, of course.
"Kylie Jenner," she gushed. "How could she not be your favorite person?"

D-Frag! – 03
I was originally going to pass over D-Frag! because it is an adaption of something I am already reading. Not only that, it is a comedy. It did not seem like it would be worth watching considering I would already know all of the punchlines.
Needless to say, I eventually succumbed to the casts charms and decided to give it a chance. I was pleasantly surprised with the few subtle changes Brains Base decided to make with the adaption.
Takao realizes she can never get married.
Considering how early on in the series we are and the fact that it is a comedy, I am going to simply write about how much I enjoyed this episode. Feel free to agree with me about how warm and fuzzy it made you feel. Do not worry, it is only weird if you say it, not type it.
Contrary to what I just said, there is something that has been bothering me about this adaption. Roka. I feel Brain Base made her far too emotional. Perhaps her emotions simply did not come across as strong in print, but throughout the last couple of episodes she has been far too reactive. That in itself is nothing to complain about, but this is an adaption. Those of you who have never read the manga have no reason to complain.
From the source material I came to see her as a somewhat more responsive Rei. However, in the anime she comes across simply as being shy. Now, that may have been the authors intent all along, but what Brain Base is doing to her character is ruining my image of her. Though I do get the feeling that I am alone in this belief, I always imagined her "emotional speeches" to be monotone or at the very least more reserved than how they are portrayed in the anime.
Wild Rako uses Headbutt.
In any case, without giving anything away, I am eager to see the sparks begin to fly. There is a reason D-Frag! is tagged harem and romance. It has been a while since I started the series so my memory is a little hazy, but I think the week after next we will finally be introduced to Kazama's sister. Look forward to it. I know I am.

Redesign and Brand wordpress photography website.
I have a photography website which is based on wordpress and uses an Imagely theme. I would like to rebrand the website and make it a little bit more professional, the website includes galleries of my photos, blog articles, contact details, reviews and more.
In addition to the website, I also post information (from the website) to social media automatically, and through a monthly newsletter so would like the theme for the newsletter to tie into my website theme.
My current site is [login to view URL], but sites I like and prefer the looks of are listed below. I would sort of like a merge between these sites, something like a dynamic portfolio and blog site which relies on Envira gallery (or a slider compatible with this).
Sites / themes I like;
• [login to view URL]
• [login to view URL]
• [login to view URL]
• [login to view URL]
• [login to view URL]
• [login to view URL]
• [login to view URL]
• [login to view URL]
• [login to view URL]
• [login to view URL]
In addition, one of the most important things is to improve site performance, maximise load times and so on. The site is currently using WP Rocket for caching and Cloudflare. Site needs to be mobile responsive and meet all common modern web requirements.
Most of what I shoot is generally wildlife or landscape images. I don't have a full idea of what I would like beyond the above, so would need some guidance or mock-ups from the successful bidder.
I am not a fan of drag and drop builders so would prefer not to use them in the theme design. When creating new articles I would just do them through the Posts tab and so on and don't want to need to mess around, e.g. needs to be easy to make blog posts that fit the style of the site.
Also don't want installed with demo content, want it installed to my existing site with current content

H1Z1 First Look – Early Access Review
*This First Look is as of the 1/22/2014 version of the alpha H1Z1.*
Chasing a man down the highway was more difficult than it sounds. Two men stood by a campfire outside a grocery store up ahead. The man I was chasing ran toward them, and I in hot pursuit. "He attacked me first!" I said to them as we ran passed. I lied. He hadn't. Regardless, the two bystanders sprang into action. We quickly dispatched my 'attacker' with wooden clubs and took refuge inside the grocery.
"You need anything?" one of them asked. "Here take this," said another, placing a bottle of water on the ground. All the sudden a cop car came cruising up to the grocery, red and blue lights flashed through the window. The three of us ducked behind the counter. I felt my stomach move into my throat. Because they weren't cops. There were no cops.
Stories and experiences. That is the heart that drives survival games, unpredictable player interactions in a harsh environment. Despite some haranguing by game journo pros over the usual alpha launch woes, there is a lot to be excited about with Sony's H1Z1. Fans of the zombie survival genre that exploded into popularity with the Arma "DayZ" mod will find a familiar landscape. Players spawn into the aftermath of a zombie apocalypse with little more than the shirt on their back and have run, forage, and fight to survive. As of the latest patch* the state of H1Z1 is a solid, playable foundation -and they're just getting started. What has impressed me the most so far is that the Sony team behind the game have been relentlessly listening to player feedback and churning out huge improvements. Within the first week we've already seen several impressive patches addressing loot drops, zombie behaviors and tweaks to survival need rates based on player feedback.
Another plus is that the game is built from the ground up to be H1Z1, unlike its mod counterparts, and it shows. The UI is smoother and responsive, inventory management is better and animations look a step up from the competition. Wild animals like rabbit, deer, wolves and bears roam the wilderness and can be hunted by both living and undead alike. Even little things, like hitting a player or zombie with a melee item causing their head to move and turn realistically with each blow. The strange hit-boxes and homemade animations we're all used to are thankfully not making an appearance this time around. Brain eaters actually have the numbers and speed to chase you, offering more than the glitchy window dressing they have in other games.
H1Z1 also boasts a fairly robust crafting and building system. Players can find materials -wood sticks, metal scraps, cloth – anything to build a variety of traps, tools and weapons. You can place spikes outside a log cabin or hide animal traps deep in the woods to catch dinner. Researching different combinations of materials allows the player to learn new crafting recipes which (on most servers) stay with you after death. This mechanic offers a nice meta-progress system to alleviate some of the pain from dying and having to start over. You died and lost all your gear, but at least you learned how to craft some new things for next time.
Overall, the game is still an alpha -and players who are not interested in an unfinished product should wait and watch carefully from the sidelines. Arrows and objects will sometimes levitate in mid air, NPC's will sometimes take strange path routes. The VoIP is decent but a little "gainy". There's no grouping system for friends or reporting system for cheating players. This is still an alpha. That said, it's an alpha that is already more polished and playable in a matter of days than similar titles that were released months or years ago. If you enjoy DayZ, Rust, WarZ, or Breaking Point, this is a game you won't want to miss.

Freya has been valiantly studying Russian as one of her minor courses at Uni. It has been an intense language course, taught in fast Russian by Russian natives with fancy cyrillic handwriting. She has been wondering whether to continue with it because she has to spend so much time learning tricky grammar and vocabulary that she is worried that her other subjects might not get so much attention. Rather on a whim, I suggested that we set off on a brief expedition to St Petersburg during her Christmas holiday. Growing up in the Cold War, I never thought that a trip to Russia would ever have been possible. I only know a handful of words including "perestroika", "vodka" and "Dostoyevsky" but I have read all sorts of wonderful Russian novels in my time and Mo has lent me a fur hat. As you can see in this week's blog title, I have used Google Translate to ask how to find the Quilt Shop - где находится стеганый магазин?
It would have been fun to have kept the trip as a surprise but I had to tell her as we both had to complete a lengthy online visa application and will have to attend the Russian Consulate in Edinburgh to have our fingerprints taken. We had to declare every foreign visit for the past 10 years. My passport had been date stamped for the USA but EU countries have not done that in years so I used my blog to approximate my other travel dates. Fingers crossed that we actually get the visas because I had to book flights and accommodation first in order to say where and when the trip would be!
I am in between major quilt projects so I had two DIY quilt ladies here this week. One of them had been given inaccurate advice on measuring fabric for her quilt back so it was too small. It was not possible to attach side clamps so there may be the odd tiny bumfle. We used a computerised pattern called "Candyland" and I trimmed both ends of the quilt afterwards so nobody will be able to tell it was not quite the right size.
I have now made a dozen mini purses as stocking fillers but I still have around 20 short zips left so maybe I will make some more for Fenella to sell in aid of her Girl Guides trip to Norway;)
This week I hope to get some of a customer's "Silent Movie Star" quilt done, meet Freya in Edinburgh for our assignation and think about buying myself some thermals!

"Upholding Position and Support for Da Nang Development"Posted: Monday, October 30, 2017
This is an affirmation by Mr Le Diep, Director of Vietcombank Da Nang, at his interview granted to our reporter. Indeed, during its 42 years of construction and development, Vietcombank Da Nang has maintained a constant growth to lead the industry in the city, support thousands of enterprises and have significant contributions to local socioeconomic development. Quoc Hung reports.
Vietcombank Da Nang has made very long strides in the course of 42 years of construction and development. How have its successes been expressed?
Capital mobilisation is one of key tasks of Vietcombank Da Nang. The lender has actively diversified its products, flexibly applied its customer policies, developed more new, modern and convenient deposit services. Thus, in 10 years (2006 - 2016), its mobilised capital value increased six times, from VND1,322 billion to VND7,813 billion. And, with the motto of diversifying clients and portfolios, Vietcombank Da Nang offered its loans to all economic sectors, boosted loans for all sectors like tourism, service, trade, industry, seafood processing and electricity. The credit growth was 29 per cent annually in the last 10 years. Bad debt was always kept at just 0.62 per cent, far below the allowed level.
Vietcombank is a top bank of import and export payment, international payment and retail banking. How have these strengths been promoted by Vietcombank Da Nang?
As for the retail sector, Vietcombank Da Nang is one of leading commercial lenders in the city in providing modern retail products and services, especially card issuance and payment. In 2016, credit card payment value reached VND3,265 billion, up 31.7 per cent over 2015 and 11 times over 2006. Card products and services meet maximum demands of customers.
By the side of the city
From its successes and performances, how has Vietcombank Da Nang contributed and supported the city's economy?
Projects financed by Vietcombank Da Nang have promoted their performances and significantly contributed to the development of Da Nang City and neighbouring provinces. Such projects include Indochina Riverside Tower, Hyatt Regency Da Nang Resort and Spa, Quang Tho Seafood Processing Factory, Viet Italy Tapioca Processing Plant, An Dien Hydropower Plant and Tam Ky Bypass. The good performance of these projects has helped boost the branch's credit growth. Its credit quality is seen best in the city, vividly evidenced by the effective cooperation between Vietcombank Da Nang and the business community.
In addition to financing economic activities, what efforts has Vietcombank Da Nang made to support Da Nang City's socioeconomic development?
How will Vietcombank Da Nang orient its development to continue to side with the city's development in the coming years?

The show was a success! Well, I guess more of a success then those days at the farmers market went. especially at 3 hours making over $50 with no booth fee vs 6 hours making just under $50 at the market with a booth fee.
I sold a handful of hats (mostly to the boyfriends co-workers- thanks guys and enjoy!) and sold out of the scrubbies. The felt bead bracelets that mom made are always being looked at and I really think she should make some more colors when she gets the chance. I'm sure they'd do really well on etsy, actually. Anyway, I did sell one of bracelets to someone- I think it was going to be a gift.
Gave away all my cards, as well. I only had 40 to start with so i was kinda stingy to begin but i figured going home with no cards is better than not giving any away.
I have no idea when the next time I'll be able to run a booth will be, but I'm thinking after the next few weeks I'll be able to get back into the swing of spinning and crocheting some new stuff.

This recipe may be a little unorthodox for most. For one thing it's green, and it also has some vegetables that a lot of people have never heard of. So I dare you to be a little adventurous and approach this recipe with an open mind (and belly). Your body will thank you.
Your strongest defense to cold and flu can be sitting down to a warm bowl of soup. Eating a varied diet is key to boosting immunity. Soup has the potential to be very nutrient dense on every level. Stock is the foundation of any good soup and loaded with antioxidants. You can prepare it in advance and freeze it in 4 cup portions or buy prepared stock from the store and water it down. Add whatever variety of fresh immune boosting ingredients you have on hand and simmer until tender.
Green Soup with Sweet Potatoes (makes 4-6 servings)
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for garnish
2 yellow onions, chopped
Sea salt
1 1/4 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
3 1/2 cups water
2-3 tablespoons chopped fresh sage leaves
1 bunch kale
1 bunch green chard
8 cloves garlic peeled
3 cups vegetable broth
Freshly ground black pepper
Fresh lemon juice
1) Heat olive oil in a medium pot over medium-low heat. Add the onions and a pinch of salt and stir frequently until the onions are soft and golden brown, 30-40 min.
2) Meanwhile, place the sweet potatoes in a large pot with 3 1/2 cups water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the sage. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer, covered, about 10 minutes.
3) Wash the kale and chard, trim away the tough stems, and chop. Add to sweet potatoes along with garlic and vegetable broth. Cover and simmer gently for 20 minutes. Add the onions to the soup and let cool slightly.
4) Puree the mixture in a blender, in batches, and return the pureed soup to the pot. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. To serve, drizzle olive oil over individual bowls of soup.

Long Island's South Shore and North Shore offer vastly different scenery. The coastline of the South Shore beckons with its powdery white sands, bustling Nautical Mile, and venerable Montauk Point Lighthouse. The North Shore, with its majestic rocky bluffs, regal Gold Coast mansions, and easy charm of places like Greenport Village, calls to swimmers, surfers, sailors, and sunbathers. Inland you'll find an agricultural treasurehouse, nurturing vineyards to rival their Californian and European counterparts and food producers catering to the farm-to-table ethic of many of the region's restaurants.
This is an area with a long and fascinating history. Before being settled by Europeans in the 17th century, the island was occupied by 13 Native American tribes with names that may sound quite familiar: Rockaway, Merric, Montauk, and Manhasset. Agriculture was the basis of its early economy, and later in the 18th and early 19th centuries, whaling brought a period of wealth and prominence. In the years following the Civil War, well-to-do Americans discovered the pleasures of saltwater bathing and sea breezes, and the farming and fishing communities of the Hamptons were slowly transformed into fashionable summer resorts. The North Shore became the playground of the Vanderbilts, Whitneys, and Roosevelts. After World War II Americans began owning automobiles, highways were constructed, and the middle class moved out to Long Island, converting farm fields into suburbs.
Long Island does not stand still (though the same might not be said of its roads on a peak-season weekend), but beyond the hubbub of traffic and a sprawl of new homes and commercial districts, old village centers with historic sites and museums preserve the island's rich heritage, and parks, golf courses, nature preserves, and those glorious beaches provide the space to reflect and breathe in the fresh sea air.


text: Leaving the centre of Thaxted, we walked passed the imposing church and the almshouses to the windmill. From here we followed the River Chelmer as far as Duton Hill, past a mill and onto the ruins of Tilty Abbey. We stopped to admire the Church of St John the Baptist which was once the gatehouse chapel to the Abbey and then continued across the fields and country lanes until we reached the A120 on the edge of Takeley. Having crossed the A120 we turned right to continue along the southern side of this main road. Progress was very difficult along this section due to a lack of maintenance of the footpath, but we finally emerged from the 'jungle' close the Takeley church. Having passed the church we turned left along the old A120 before heading right across country to Hatfield Forest Country Park.

McClain: Texans seek QB who's the right fit
Commentary: Texans seek QB who's the right fit
Backup needs to accept role but be ready to go if Schaub's hurt
Once the Texans trade quarterback Sage Rosenfels to Minnesota for a fourth-round draft choice Friday, they will have to find a replacement.
Free agency begins at 12:01 a.m. Friday, and Rosenfels' replacement will come from a list of quarterbacks who are free agents.
In a perfect world, Matt Schaub will stay healthy and start — and finish — 16 games. Based on what we've seen of Schaub in his first two seasons, the odds of that happening are miniscule because he has been out of the lineup four times — three because of injuries and one because of illness.
Candidates to replace Rosenfels may be Detroit's Dan Orlovsky, Chicago's Rex Grossman, Cincinnati's Ryan Fitzpatrick, Tampa Bay's Jeff Garcia and Denver's Patrick Ramsey.
A personal favorite would be Tennessee's Chris Simms. If the Texans signed him, he could be reunited with his best friend from the University of Texas, offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan. Then we could write some more about the matching tattoos they got in Austin.
Simms, though, is expected to re-sign with the Titans. Too bad.
Best candidates
It says here the best out of that group are Orlovsky, Fitzpatrick and Grossman.
Orlovsky, 25, started seven games for the 0-16 Lions last season, including the 28-21 loss at Reliant Stadium. He passed for 1,616 yards, eight touchdowns and eight interceptions.
Fitzpatrick, 26, won at Reliant Stadium as a rookie with St. Louis in 2005. He started three games for the Bengals last season. He had 905 yards, eight touchdowns and nine interceptions.
Grossman, 28, was a No. 1 pick with the Bears who helped them reach the Super Bowl after the 2006 season but lost his starting job. He had one start last season when he had two touchdowns and two interceptions.
The last time the Texans were in the market for a veteran quarterback during an offseason, they spoke to Garcia and Ramsey. Ramsey, who has one start in his last four years, isn't good enough to fill the role the Texans need. Garcia, 39, threw for 12 touchdowns and six interceptions last season. He wants another chance to compete for a starting job, and he's not going to get it in Houston.
The new backup quarterback will have to be a player capable of starting — and winning — a few games in case Schaub suffers another injury. The new quarterback also must understand his role. This is Schaub's team.
There will be no competition for the starting job. Schaub was outstanding when he returned from the knee injury last season, leading the Texans to a 3-1 finish. He was a different quarterback — more confi-dent in his ability, more com-fortable in the pocket and more in charge of the offense.
Good shot at starting
Rosenfels, 30, started five games in each of the last two seasons and wants to compete for a starting job. He'll get that chance with the Vikings, who have Tarvaris Jackson and Gus Frerotte. Expect Rosenfels to win that job.
The Vikings are expected to release Frerotte, who was 8-3 as a starter last season when they won the NFC North and made the playoffs.
If he becomes available, Frerotte should be on the Texans' list of candidates if they believe he can fit into their system. At 37, he's a 15-year veteran who has played in just about every system other than the single wing.
General manager Rick Smith and coach Gary Kubiak saw how effective Frerotte can be. He threw a season-high three touchdown passes in the Vikings' 28-21 victory over the Texans at the Metrodome.
Who got the best on this trade won't be known for a while. It depends on how well Rosenfels does in Minnesota, what the Texans do with the fourth-round pick and how much the new quarterback helps or hurts them when he has to play.

The war already started when I walk out from bathroom. I only heard screams and explosions. Haha, that drive is for me, I took my soviet cannon from a closet and walk out to the streets. Smoke of powder and running people - all this made beauty beginning of beautiful day...
And this is sad rainy day (classic animation homework)
That was to put you in a little action. So here we go some cool news. First thing is first - Israeli publishing company Kidmat Eden took my drawing "Violet Girl" http://dirty-pup.deviantart.com/art/Violet-girl-85245805 as a cover for Terry Prachet's book "Nation".
And I'm really happy with this.
Thank you, Henry!

Take another of Raphael's personifications, Poetry [Imagem 1], or better still his ravishing drawing for that figure [Imagem 2]. From one point of view it is a pictorial sign with the obvious and enumerable attributes of the wings, the lyre and the book. But this vision not only signifies Numine afflatur [Inspiração Divina], it also displays or expresses it. The sign limits are blurred. The upturned gaze may still be a conventional sign for inspiration, carried by the tradition of art from ancient times, but the tense beauty of the figure is Raphael's own, and not even he could quite transfer and repeat it, for it may well be that the finished image is a little less convincing as an embodiment of the Divine afflatus though it has an added wreath.

The persimmon tree comes from China, there are two main varieties and there are other uses for the fruit other than that of eating. The persimmon tree is not only native to China, but the Chinese developed over 2,000 different cultivars. This plant didn't make it to the United States until the 1800s, when the seeds were brought to California.
There are two main varieties of persimmon trees: astringent and non-astringent. Non-astringent persimmons such as Fuyu can be eaten raw and stay good when stored at room temperature for several weeks. Astringent persimmons have a much shorter shelf life, usually just a few days, and require cooking before consumption.
The fruit of the persimmon tree has many uses. Most of the fruit is edible, although some varieties need curing before they can be eaten. The American persimmon fruit is only edible after the fall freeze. A few types such as the wild persimmon tree found in Japan have inedible fruit. These fruits are useful as insect repellent. The fruits are crushed, mixed with water until it forms a liquid solution and pasted on paper. Unripe persimmons in Japan are rich in tannin, which is an organic, acidic substance that is used as a preservative and in the making of sake.

We were trying to figure out a way to highlight things that have happened in the past 8 decades to share with my mother-in-law. Initially, I wanted to do some kind of coffee table book, but we were running short on time (research, figure the layout, order/delivery) so I had to do it the old fashion way....scrapbooking. Although, to be honest, I'm not sure this way was much faster because it took all week, but we did avoid waiting on the delivery piece.
I used to scrapbook when the kids were younger....here's what some of that looked like.
When they got a little older and life got a little busier, it just seemed easier to pull together a digital book of our annual happenings.
And, this is how the scrapbook for my mother-in-law turned out.

An Irish politician has been caught up in a privilege row with Justice Minister Alan Shatter after naming rugby star Ronan O'Gara and crime reporter Paul Williams as recipients of police favors.
Shatter branded Independent deputy Joan Collins a 'disgrace' after she claimed in the Dublin parliament that both Williams and O'Gara had driving offences quashed by 'friendly' police.
The two celebrities are the latest high profile figures to be named in the parliament for having penalty points cancelled by members of the Irish police force.
The Irish Independent newspaper says that police bosses are currently investigating claims by a disgruntled sergeant that thousands of penalty points for road traffic offences have been cancelled on appeal to a superintendent.
Collins used her parliamentary privileges to name the Ireland star and Williams as being among the motorists who had penalty points written off.
Now she has been accused of abusing privilege, which protects against being sued for remarks made in the chamber.
Justice Minister Shatter said: "It is a total disgrace for people to be named and shamed in the House.
"It was wrong to imply that anyone who had penalty points cancelled was getting special treatment."
Shatter also told the parliament that there were only 197 allegations made in relation to 1.46 million penalty points applied via 'fixed charge notices' over the past three-and-a-half years.
He added: "From the interim report I received, I have noted that some of the cancellations of fixed-charge notices relate to ordinary individuals who are not VIPs.
"Some of the people had penalty points written off because they were not the owner of the car identified by the speed camera.
"There have been other instances, including one in which a young child was being taken to hospital in an emergency."
The report says a superintendent has the power to cancel points if he receives an appeal in writing, outlining the grounds why the offender feels the points should not be applied.
Shatter also warned deputies not to assume all cancellations were inappropriate.
In response the Wexford deputy Mick Wallace complained that the authorities had given 'no protection' to the police whistleblowers who had come forward with allegations of 100,000 cases of penalty points being written off and raised concerns of a 'cover-up'.
Shatter dismissed the concerns and said: "There will be no special treatment because they are celebrity or pal of someone. Under my watch, the law will be applied."
