I was reading "40 Money Tips from Experts" over at the Online Trading Academy and decided to come up with some tips of my own.
With uncertainties continuing to surround the global economy, cost-savings tips in the home are very important for any cost-conscious home owner. Thankfully, it doesn't take a genius to embrace some of the simplest but most useful money-saving measures in the home. If you want a short list that can help cut your expenses, here are a few recommendations that are guaranteed to trim your monthly expenditure.
- In the summer, set your home air conditioning two about 24 degrees centigrade. Studies have shown that 24 degrees is the optimum setting that allows for a comfortable feeling without eating into your electric bill. Most homeowners set their air conditioning to 20 to 22 degrees, so the extra 2 to 4 degrees can help you save a considerable amount at the end of the month.
- In the winter, set your home heater to 20 degrees centigrade. The opposite is true in winter when you relying on your heater. The higher is the temperature setting, the more power you consume. 20 to 22 degrees in the winter is sufficient to feel comfortably without burning a hole in your pocket.
- Unplug appliances when not in use. The stand-by power of most appliances may be low but appliances still consume electricity when plugged. To save on electricity, unplug your TVs, computers, turn off the light, and all other kitchen appliances except for the refrigerator.
- Do your household chores in bunches. For example, iron your clothes in one go and not per piece. Wash your dishes in the dishwasher together, and not after every one eats. Studies have shown that doing all household chores that require electric power in bunches can help minimize energy usage by as much as 30% compared to when you iron clothes or wash dishes one by one.
- Create a budget and stick with it. One of the most useful money-saving tips is to actually create a budget so you are guided with your monthly spending. Write down what is essential and trim down everything else so you know you can meet your monthly spending goals without sacrificing the important items needed in the home.
Money-saving need not be difficult if you know where to start. See if you can implement two or more of these recommendations and check how much you are saving per month. Once you see the difference, you will be even more motivated to cut your spending further.

The first is an elaborate chandelier constructed in a boutique shop and looks amazing. It's 2X4 feet wide, uses 90 bubbles, and mixes in some silver Christmas ornaments for optimum shine.
- Nine bubbles (3 large, 6 small)
- A 12 in X 12 in wire grid, one that comes in those packs of the build-your-own-cubbies things at Target (we used those to build a bunny cage)
- Wire cutters
- Paperclips
- Fishing Wire
|Plastic is still on in this picture!
|Sorry for the horrible quality pics from here on out, but it was 10:30 by this time! I was tired and cranky and had bad lighting- oh the irony!
|3 bubbles in...
|4 bubbles in...
|I put this one up to show you what it looks like! 6 bubbles in!
You can also see that we have two broken bubbles (thanks Tim!), but I hung them up anyway because they were still hang-able. Maybe they add charm? We can always replace them at any time, so I'm not too worried about them right now.
The best part is that I've also always wanted a simple pendent lampshade over my dining table, and now I have both! I can't wait to complete our table refinishing job and get that nice dark wood table and some creamy white leather parson chairs in there...oh my...

An all-new Volkswagen Polo GTI, with a 0-60mph time under seven seconds, is expected to debut in Frankfurt later this year. With a top speed of 140mph, and £5,000 cheaper than the Golf GTI, this car will be hot.
Word on the street is that Volkswagen is preparing an all-new Volkswagen Polo GTI for 2010. Anticipating a Frankfurt Motor Show launch in September, the new Polo looks to raise the bar for superminis.
Coming with the same 1.4 liter super- and turbo-charged four-cylinger TSI as the Ibiza Cupra, this will likely be the fastest Polo ever. 178 bhp (130 kW) and 184 ft-lbs (249 Nm) of torque means this hatchback could have a 0-60mph in under seven seconds. The top speed will be around 140mph (225 km/h).
This fast little car will likely be a bit of a fuel-sipper, as the engine is relatively small. Some numbers being bounced around are 40mpg (7 l/100km), and 150 grams of CO2 per kilometer. The Polo GTI would likely fit into emissions Band C, so UK buyers would not have to pay a fortune in yearly vehicle tax.
A six-speed manual will come standard, with a seven speed automatic dual-clutch also available.
Exterior styling will have many commonalities with the Golf GTI, such as a black honeycomb grille wrapped in a red line that blends seemlessly into the front bumper. Alloy wheels, an aerodynamic body kit, and an overall aggressive look is likely. We would not be surprised to see red brake calipers, dual exhaust, and signal mirrors.
The interior will be significantly improved, with softer plastics and better detailing. Expect a nice set of sport seats, aluminum pedals, iPod adapter, and premium stereo as interior options.
The Volkswagen Polo GTI will be introduced as the top-of-the-line model for the next generation VW Polo. It should be roughly the same size as the current Polo, but with a bit more space inside. Platform sharing with the SEAT Ibiza, engineers will add a tighter suspension, and stability control.
Look for pricing to be in the neighborhood of £15,500. If that is accurate, it will be about £5,000 cheaper than the Mk 6 Golf GTI. There is no doubt the Volkswagen Polo GTI will be one of the top sellers of the 2010 model year.

The coolest record label you've ever seen. Let's keep independent music independent. Indie power!
Hi we're Richard Munns and Dominic French (also known as Dick and Dom)
We are addicted to independent music, and we believe in allowing our artists to keep creative freedom.
Yes, we are 'bout that life.
Our record label, Golden Ratio Records is about to launch. Launching acts is expensive, which is why most record labels are so controlling.
We get our label funding through stylish label merchandise, and are not just in this to make a buck.
We believe that aesthetically pleasing merch can fund beautiful sounds, which equals artistic freedom for our acts. It's a golden formula.
If you want to be part of the Golden Ratio Records movement, and keep independent music independent, then pledge dear ones!
We have already invested capital into researching and developing the label style, merchandise and brand identity. We've kept all standards high (like how we hold our noses to most mainstream records) and we'd love for you to be a part of our launch by purchasing whatever takes your fancy.
Your pledges will almost immediately be used to finalise albums for our upcoming acts (mixing, mastering and distribution), creating more label merchandise and updating our website to sell it, distribution of limited edition physical releases and anything left over will go towards our summer press showcase.
All bands on our roster are in varying stages of development and are not launching online until the music is mixed and mastered but let us know if you want to be kept up to date with upcoming projects and we'll add you to our mailer.
Risks and challenges
Our biggest challenge will be production methods for all the merch because we want to ensure it is of high quality but we have a reputable retailer on standby that produces merchandise for record labels and artists regularly. Targets achieved, we aim to get your goods to you by the end of Jan latest.

While this AAL project is supposed to support elderly people at work, the technology has great potential to be adapted in much more areas of work and private life. And it might be soon another useful "thing" in the fast growing IoT.
In the Trans.Safe project, devices and applications are developed out of an international and interdisciplinary team from universities, associations and specialized companies in Switzerland, Germany, Great Britain and Italy. The expertise of konplan, as a mechatronic engineering company, is the programming of the cloud database, interfaces and to run integration tests of the several system components as there are Smartphone apps, as well as sensors and cloud databases. Continuous Integration, unit tests and automated UI tests allow modification within a very short time and make sure that this system is executable as intended.
Applicability is ensured through the constant involvement of potential end users. Product design and usability are monitored by project partners. The wearable data collection system part delivers information about variable parameters like HRV and GSR. These data are combined with the environmental data collection of temperature, humidity, light intensity and noise level. An algorithm detects the grade of overload respectively underload and suggests an intervention. In this research particularly the light effects are investigated. Therefore a device with special glasses spreading calming light towards the eyes is developed. This intervention is noticeable for the use, however, it is invisible for others.
With this project konplan proves its excellence as a partner for ambitious interdisciplinary and international mechatronic engineering.

The trial of charity champion Tony 'The Fridge' Morrison has been adjourned by magistrates again after the runner changed his legal representation.
It was the sixth hearing at Sunderland Magistrates' Court into the assault case, which had initially been listed for trial on December 15 last year.
It was vacated and listed on March 9, before being adjourned to take place today.
The 51-year-old, famous for raising more than £100,000 for charity by running with a 42kg fridge on his back, has previously denied all charges against him.
These are four counts of common assault of members of the Mallaby family, and one of using violence to secure entry into their home in Hylton Lane, Bunny Hill, Sunderland, on June 16, last year.
Now a review hearing will be held in two weeks' time after the trial was vacated for a third time due to changes to Morrison's legal representation.
Morrison's new solicitor Kevin Smallcombe had asked the bench to adjourn the case until September 16 in order to take instructions.

It will be a White Christmas by the Bay in Rainbow Harbor
2009-12-01 · By Editor
This December, guests are invited to enjoy a flurry of holiday events downtown. Rainbow Harbor Holiday Events will feature a full month of things to do for the whole family including Christmas tree lighting, snow, and carolers with an ocean backdrop.
For a holiday event to remember, the Aquarium of the Pacific, Shoreline Village, and The Pike invite the public to come and enjoy the sights, sounds, and tastes of a white Christmas by the bay.
Many of the events — including the holiday harbor cruises and ice skating — take place daily and are already open. Be sure to mark your calendar for weekend celebrations such as the tree lighting and snow day.
The Rainbow Harbor Holidays Christmas Tree
The Rainbow Harbor Holidays Christmas Tree stands 30 feet tall and has more than 3,000 lights. It takes nearly 12 hours to install and decorate before the magical moment when the tree is lit for the first time. Councilwoman Suja Lowenthal officially lit the Christmas Tree and recognized the Menorah and Kwanzaa displays on the Sunday before Thanksgiving. The tree shines nightly at The Pike's Event Park (corner of Shoreline Drive and Pine Avenue).
Sounds of Christmas: Holiday Carolers
Going for an evening stroll along the watefront? Don't miss the carolers! The Pike's Roaming Christmas Caroler will ring in the holiday along the waterfront with the songs that epitomize the season. Listen for holiday music Saturday evenings through December 18. The Carolers begin making the rounds at 5:00 p.m.
Snow Day in Shoreline Village
Frolic in 15 tons of snow on Saturday, December 11 from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. in Shoreline Village. There will be mountains of man-made snow for kids ages 12 and under to build a snowman and ride sleds on. They can also play in the two inflatable houses (fee applies). Snow Day in Shoreline Village will have free hot chocolate and coffee, holiday music, and a trackless train for all ages to enjoy.
Free Shark Lagoon Nights
The public is invited to get up close with the ocean's ultimate predators at the Aquarium of the Pacific for FREE during Shark Lagoon Nights. Guests will have the opportunity to touch bamboo sharks and see large sharks such as sandtigers as well as rays in the Aquarium's Shark Lagoon. Coffee, hot cocoa, beer, wine, desserts, and snacks are available for purchase.
Please note that while Shark Lagoon Nights is scheduled for almost every Friday, some Fridays are excluded. Check the dates on the Aquarium's website for availability. Shark Lagoon Nights are weather-dependent and can be canceled due to inclement weather.
Holiday Late Nights at the Aquarium
Treat a loved one to an evening at the Aquarium of the Pacific this holiday season and enjoy the ambiance of the Aquarium at night. During its Holiday Late Nights, admission will be just $11.95 per person after 5 p.m., and the Aquarium will remain open until 9 p.m. Holiday visitors can journey through the Pacific Ocean to meet over 11,000 animals, including more than 150 sharks they can touch. Please note: the Lorikeet Forest aviary closes at 4:30 p.m. during the winter. Holiday discounts for the Aquarium will be available from 5:00 pm. to 9:00 p.m., December 26 through January 2.
Winter Harbor Tours with Harbor Breeze Cruises
Tour the picturesque Rainbow Harbor and take in the sights and history of Long Beach. Cruises depart daily between 12:30 p.m. and 6:00 p.m from Rainbow Harbor, Dock #2, next to the Aquarium of the Pacific.
For more information about holiday events in downtown Long Beach, visit RainbowHarborHolidays.com

Are you overweight and want to do something about it?
The review has been updated September 15th 2017
I've had my ups and downs with my weight. I used to just think that putting on weight as I aged was normal, and there wasn't much I could do about it. However, there are times I just get so upset about my lack of energy, motivation and growing waistline that I vow to do whatever it takes to change it.
Sound familiar?
For me, being overweight is more than just how I look. I am concerned for my health.
My family has a history of cardiovascular disease and other health complications. I've always been a little afraid that I might have a higher chance of health complications. This really begun to stress me out as I felt myself becoming less and less healthy.
Looking for a change
One day, when I was feeling particularly upset with my weight situation, I came across the 3 week diet. This diet claims that you can lose between 12-23 pounds of fat in just 21 days.
I was skeptical at first. We all have come across advertisements in newspapers, magazines, the internet, and a gazillion other places claiming to reduce our weight but come on … let us be honest: these diet's never really work.I figured it was just another diet, like the many out there.
What really caught my attention was that weight loss was guaranteed, fast, and included a step by step instruction guide I could follow.
I was interested but really didn't know if this could be possible. So I figured since I have had enough of feeling unhealthy, and I wanted to do something to lose weight, I thought I would see if this program could really lived up to its claims.
The downside of being overweight
Being overweight is no fun, for many reasons. You aren't as happy about how you look, shopping isn't enjoyable, and keeping up with your family becomes more of a chore than enjoyable. Your activities and life are just limited in general.
I've personally passed on holidays where I knew would be anywhere near a beach, or in hot weather. I've just given up on joining in on those beautiful hikes or nature activities because I know I'll be the one that holds everyone up. Not to mention all the health issues that are associated with being overweight, there are just a few:
- Coronary Heart Disease
- Type 2 diabetes
- Endometrial cancer
- Colon cancer
- Hypertension
- Stroke
- Sleep apnea
- Respiratory problems
- Osteoarthritis
- Gynecological problems
- Liver disease
If you know the feeling of making compromises because of your weight, have, or might have any of the symptoms above, you don't just want to lose weight but NEED to. The 3 week diet, with it's guaranteed results, might just be the right program for you. You don't have to live your life compromising your health and happiness.
>>> Go to our recommended diet plan for 2018! Better than the 3 week diet!<<
What to expect
The 3 week diet isn't a complicated program, it has step by step instructions on what to eat, when to eat, and how much to each broken down for you. It's really a matter of following the plan laid out right in front of you.
If you can do this, the 3 week diet guarantees weight loss.
While the diet is not difficult in theory, the diet does take some work and commitment. Making changes to your eating habit and activity focusing on your food choices can take a drain on your energy in the beginning.
Even though it may be tiring at first, you'll get all your energy back and more when you step on the scale each day and see the results of how much weight you've lost. The 3 week diet works so well because you can immediately see the results of your sacrifices.
When you see the weight you have lost each and every day, you'll forget about the effort you're putting in and be motivated to continue on with the program. As the diet progresses, it gets a bit easier as well, or your body is just more used to it.
For me, I was definitely will to put in 3 weeks of work for the possibility of living a richer and more fulfilling rest of my life.
About the Author: Brian Flatt
The 3 Week Diet is authored by Brian Flatt, a graduate of San Diego State University in California with a degree in Biology. He has been in the fitness industry since 1999 and is a certified personal trainer, sports nutritionist, and health coast. With a degree in understanding how the body works and his real life experience with people, he claims he has made a plan that is guaranteed to work.
Still training today and internationally recognized in his field, I was curious to see if his plan could actually could work for a normal everyday person like me.
Brian agrees that there are a lot of diets out there, but explains that they just don't work for a lot of different reasons. Either they are full of wrong information, aren't easy to follow, or just work too slowly.
Brian Flatt is also the author of the 2 Week Diet program.
From working with people every day, he knows that it is tempting to give up on something if you don't see results for all the sacrifices you make and the work you're putting in. That is why he has spent years, tweaking and testing the 3 Week Diet to make sure it is easy to follow and gives fast results.
What is the 3 Week Diet?
The 3 Week Diet is exactly what it seems like, a diet you follow for 3 weeks. If you follow the program, you are assured to lose between 12-23 pounds in as little as 21 days.
The diet is broken down into 4 manuals, totaling 95 pages altogether. Each manual builds on each other and delivers all the information you need to know regarding weight reduction, beginning from the facts governing weight loss to nutrients and also specific nutrition tips for taking management of weight gain and stimulation weight loss.
The major benefits of this program:
- Guaranteed weight loss
- Step by step guideline so there is no way to go wrong
- Delivers FAST results
Is this program right for you?
If you're someone who doesn't have this weight to lose, the diet is not for you. You can still get some great information about how your body works, how to target the stubborn fat cells stored in your body and how to turn them back into acids that can be used for energy throughout the day.
You will also get some great exercise routines that are about 15 minutes each and can be done in your living room. But, as far as results, this diet won't make you lose 50 pounds in 3 weeks, or get washboard abs.
Who it's good for:
- Anyone who wants to lose weight quickly
- People who are willing to follow the diet plan
- Individuals who are suffering medically from being overweight
Who might not benefit:
- Vegans (but it is possible, like any diet, being a vegan makes it harder to pick and prepare food)
- Anyone already on a medically supervised diet
- People with limited access to produce or a supermarket around them
The 3 Week Diet Overview
Going through the book in detail is highly recommended as skipping over something that seems small and insignificant could be the difference between you losing a few extra pounds during the 3 weeks. The book has been broken down into 4 different sections for easy reading and understanding
The Introduction Manual:
In this section, users will discover the science behind weight loss and how the body starts burning the stored fat. Additionally, users will also get to know why the human anatomy needs 3 weeks to start burning fat. In this first part you'll learn about the particular supplements that can help activated your metabolism and the science behind how they work.
This part of the manual basically tells you why we get fat and how this diet works to reverse it. It gives you a basic guideline of what to do and what not to do to get the best results from the next 3 weeks.
The Diet Manual:
In this section users will learn how to calculate lean body mass vs. fat percentage. Using your specific information you will then be able to follow the guidelines set out for your type of body of what to eat each day, what amount to eat and when to eat it.
You learn about the exact food required to maximize the body's fat burning potential and what food required to avoid to stop the fat burning procedure.
You will learn what foods maximize your body's fat burning potential and what foods stop your body from getting rid of fat. When you are done reading this section of the manual, you will be able to determined your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and figure out how many calories your body needs to be able to burn fat throughout the day.
Here, Brian also tells us about the need to time meals effectively to build a 24/7 fat burning condition within us and stabilize the fat storing hormones in the body.
With this manual you will learn: what to eat, how much to eat, and when to eat.
The Workout Manual:
We all know that exercise helps burn calories, so an exercise portion is not a big surprise. What is surprising is that, you will still be losing fat if you skip this part all together. The bad news is, you'll be cheating yourself out of possibly doubling your weight loss, but not exercising.
Brian doesn't rely on exercises to make us lose weight, he just encourages them to help. This means that the exercises aren't like those crazy, long work outs you might be used to. All of the exercises are short and only required 20-30 minutes of your time.
He encourages you to walk, stretch, move, and generally just be active. He also includes a few specific full body fat blasting workouts that really can double the fat burning results when combined with the diet. All the instructions and diagrams are included, so there is no need to worry about not knowing if you're doing the exercises right or not.
The Mindset and Motivation Manual:
This section is a real eye-opening as it contains certain often-repeated myths that stop us from triumphing. It discusses the methods to specialize in the objectives and stay motivated throughout the journey. Keep you on track with the diet. But seeing the changes and losing weight weren't enough motivators.

Other diets didn't compare
Like we've discussed previously, there are so many other products on the market. I've personally have tried my fair share of them, and bet you have too. For the reasons above, and lots you learn in the book, or from the video on the 3 Week Diet's website, they just don't work.
The biggest drawback for me is that I just didn't see results fast enough. I know in my mind that losing weight and being healthy isn't just an instant fix, but when you make sacrifices, you want to see results. When you put in the work, you want to get rewarded.
This was one of the biggest differences between other diets and the 3 Weeks Diet. I saw results. Results made me happy and motivated to keep going.
Other diets were not easy to follow
Another thing I liked about this program was that it was easy to follow. Even when I want to put in the work, sometimes it's difficult to know if you're following the diet correctly or it is difficult to understand why you have to do all these weird things. Not understanding why I am making sacrifices or if I am even following the diets correctly frustrated me.
Lastly, a lot of other diets involved complicated recipes or ingredients that I just didn't know where to get or what they were. Some of the diets that restricted certain food groups stressed me out more than anything else because they're not easy to integrate into your everyday life. I'm not sure all the time what exactly is a carb, what contains gluten, or if my local store is going to have what I need for the juicing recipes or cleanses.
But with the 3 Week Diet, it was all laid out for me and doable. It made me feel like I have a fighting chance at actually being in control of my weight loss.
What about workouts and exercise?
All though the program does have an exercise manual bundled with it, doing some more simple exercises and some moderate workout can make the weight loss even faster, and it will also help you retain lasting results.
We're not talking about sweating at the gym for hours — but simple stuff like a long walk once a week, or a few body-weight exercises.
Remember, this is not required by the program, but something us at Janetfitness.com recommend our readers to do for general health benefits.
The good and the bad
All said and done there are a few cons that you need to be aware of if you are considering this diet and exercise plan.
Losing 23 pounds over 21 days is fast. If your muscle is not built up at the same time, skin sagging could occur.
Once you stop the diet, or at least stop following it so rigorously, you might initially gain some weight back. This is common with a lot of diets, but by maintaining a healthy lifestyle afterwards, you will be able to continue on your journey to weight loss.
Lastly, while the program does state to have a doctor trusted seal of approval, it is important to take the time to sit down with a healthcare professional and discuss the alternatives if you have any medical concerns or previous health problems.
Besides weight loss and motivation, you'll realize there are other advantages to the Three Week Diet.
As you get rid of the extra weight, cholesterol levels become healthier, the heart stronger, blood circulation will improve, and you'll begin to feel like you have a heightened level of energy. At the same time, you'll be looking better than you have in years.
Brian Flatt's 3 Week Diet System is for all those busy people who want to attain their weight loss goals quickly. Thousands of people have already benefited from this diet and maybe it's time to introduce yourself to something that actually works.
The Verdict
Now to answer the most frequently asked question, "Does It Work?"
Most people who have attempted the program have found that it does actually help them in losing weight.
Results do vary though and many people reported results that are on the lower end of the 12-23 pound range.
It is important to keep your weight loss goal realistic during the 3 weeks. Someone weighing 120 pounds cannot lose 23 pounds in 3 weeks, it is impossible.
>>> Go to our recommended diet plan for 2018!<<
For me, the 3 Week Diet worked.
I lost 19 pounds in the first 21 days, and I honestly couldn't be happier.
When I started to see results in the first couple of days on the diet, I didn't want to just keep going, but I wanted to push myself as much as I could to see just how much weight I could lose.
To finally find a program that works, I can't even tell you the feeling.
It was almost too good to be true, so I wanted to make sure I got the most out of it while I could.
Being overweight for me was not just a social problem, but a very real health concern. I know that losing weight isn't the miracle cure, but it makes me a lot happier and less stressed out about what might happen.
If you're in the same situation, or just looking to lose some extra weight from having a baby, having a job where you sit for most of the day, preparing for a vacation, wedding, reunion or just because you want to feel better about yourself, I highly recommend the 3 Week Diet.
It guarantees results; it is specially tailored to you, and it leaves no room for questions or excuses.
You follow the diet. You lose weight. It doesn't get much simpler than that.
Some common question we receive here at Janetfitness

June 01, 2017 - "French President Emmanuel Macron was disappointed with President Donald Trump's announcement on Thursday that the United States would withdraw from the Paris climate agreement— but he had some fun too. In a speech and on Twitter, Macron adopted Trump's signature slogan — "Make America Great Again" — but changed it slightly to invert the U.S. president's agenda. "Make Our Planet Great Again," Macron said. Like many other world leaders, Macron reiterated his commitment to the international climate agreement and to finding new ways to protect the planet from global warming." (Source: Time.com)

Cracks the stem,
removes breath
in waves of red,
nerves unpinch.
The cherry breaks
concrete thought,
loosens the band,
releases grip.
And so I attempt poetry again (don't laugh). As the tendon in my hand and wrist slowly heals (yes, it's a long, long journey), I've been going to great lengths to assist the natural process that will restore strength, and I wanted to share what's been working for me. Adrenaline, when focused properly helps, as does diet and meditation.
The first thing I've been doing is focusing my breath. One exercise I've found especially useful is the sixty second breath in which I sit comfortably and inhale slowly for twenty seconds, hold for twenty seconds, then exhale for twenty seconds. This exercise is a meditation in of itself.
I have also been taking a variety of herbal and vitamin supplements that are said to help strengthen the tendons or reduce inflamation:
Glucosomine and Chondroitin
Vitamin B Complex
More: I've eliminated artifical sweeteners from my diet which is harder than it sounds because food manufacturing companies sneak Splenda and the like into a lot of products so that they can market processed foods as "healthy alternatives". Anyway, the point of this is that I've gone to great lengths to modify diet, along with a regimen of stretching, hand exercises, and ice/heat treatments. And, I've read that artificial sweeteners can actually build up in the joints. I don't want to take any chances.
I'm not sure which or if it all has helped, but, for what it's worth, the combination has done the trick. I'm on the mend. In fact, I'll be writing like a mad woman again soon. One thing I've learned about pain, in the meantime, is that it can be trumped. I've learned to see pain as a sort of blockage that can be loosened with perseverence and, more, patience.

A View from the Bridge: the Opening Scene
The seriousness and the intense emotions displayed in this scene, plus Arthur Miller's use of dramatic devices, make this scene very dramatically effective. It is a turning point in the play because it is the first time Catherine and Rodolfo sleep together, symbolising Catherine's transformation from a "little girl" to a grown woman; and Catherine's ties with Eddie have finally cut as she chooses Rodolfo over Eddie. In this scene, Eddie also confronts his feelings towards Catherine as he kisses her in a fit of rage, passion and desire.
This scene opens up with Alfieri's narration. He tells the audience that Catherine and Rodolfo are "alone" in the apartment for the first time. The fact that they are alone suggests something is going to happen and sets the scene and create tension because the two characters are alone in a cramped flat without anyone to interfere and no other witnesses except the audience. The cramped apartment is dramatic device which is more obvious on stage the dining room is the focus of the actions, the small, claustrophobic space increases tension between the characters. The character of Alfieri serves two functions. In the play, Alfieri is the narrator, who tells the audience the story of Eddie Carbone in flashbacks, and therefore constantly reminds the readers of the tragedy that is yet to come. However he also acts as an actual character in the play the role of the wise lawyer, whom Eddie seeks advice from. A narrator is a typical dramatic device used often in plays, dating back to Greek tragedy, which is the style this play is written in.
Catherine asks Rodolfo is he is hungry, instead he replies "not for anything to eat". This suggests Rodolfo's desire for Catherine and further emphasis what might happen now they are alone together. This makes the audience wonder and curious, about Rodolfo and Catherine, and also about Eddie's reaction when he finds out.
Catherine starts to ask Rodolfo a series of questions about the options of the two of them living in Italy. At first Rodolfo thinks Catherine is joking as he is smiling, as he does not know the real question Catherine is asking him. However, we as the audience understand she is testing him to see if he only wants to marry her to be an American. This is an example of dramatic irony which Miller uses to create tension and suspense as the audience wonder how Rodolfo is going to react and whether he will figure out Catherine's true intention. We are also kept in suspense as we wait to see if Rodolfo really loves Catherine.
As Rodolfo realises Catherine's seriousness, stage directions describes that his smile "vanishes" and he is "astonished" at Catherine's request and he walks to her "slowly". From here, it is clear that Rodolfo recognizes something is wrong and the tension is heightened as his previous joking mood has gone and is moving onto a more unpleasant topic. Rodolfo tries to persuade Catherine by commenting Italy as having "no money", "no business " and "nothing" and though Italy is beautiful, "you can't cook the view". This quote shows Rodolfo's maturity and his understanding of reality and that he is not blinded by a mere pretty surface.
As Catherine continues to pursue the idea of living in Italy, Rodolfo becomes increasingly frustrated:
"There's nothing! Nothing, nothing, nothing."
We see the characters are more emotionally charged as the argument continues; Rodolfo becomes more angry and irritable as the tension builds up, and the audience tense up as the calmer...

Exposure: Trapped In Kansas
- Ryan Drever
- 31 March 2009
Trapped In Kansas: Antlers
Trapped In Kansas are an Ayr-based quartet with their eyes set on exploring territories far beyond the Coastal town they call home, with intent to display their acute melodic sensibility and complex blend of airy jazziness with truckloads of intricate guitar-work to all and sundry. Already beginning to strike a chord with lovers of atmospheric, math rock stylings, the band are looking to make the most of the coming year. For a slightly more in-depth introduction, here's guitarist Chris Ward.
So how did you all meet/form the band?
We all met while staying at student halls in Ayr - we all study commercial music at UWS. I guess the band happened through a mutual desire to play interesting music, do some gigs and have a laugh, we never really thought beyond that and still don't really.
What inspired the name? Is it because you are big fans of the wizard of Oz?
The name came about after a conversation between myself and Finn (Guitar, Vocals) on the worst things we could ever imagine. Finn jokingly said he'd hate to be trapped in Kansas, because when he was younger he travelled around America and thought Kansas was the worst and most depressing state, with endless fields of nothing so he'd hate to ever be stuck there.
If you could, how would you personally describe your sound?
Somebody called us 'technical-indie' which is the best i've heard so far, if i had to label us it would have to be something like technical-indie-post-pop-combined with-early 90's emo-angular-math-rock...hence why we tend to stray away from labels and let people work it out for us.
Being based Ayr, do you still feel somewhat connected to the Glasgow 'scene'?
Yeah, it's not too far up the road. It's always tough but we've never really focused on Ayr, we've always paid attention to Glasgow and Edinburgh. We always feel more at home on stage in Glasgow then we do anywhere else and we're lucky enough to be friends with some amazing bands, so we're always making the effort to support them too. We are Ayr-based but are made to feel like a Glasgow band.
What has been your favourite/worst gig so far?
Our favourite gig has to either be the last gig of the year at the Captain's Rest with The Darien Venture and Three Blocks From The Wake or the This Town Needs Guns gig as they were both fantastic experiences. We don't like to dwell on the bad gigs!
What are your plans for the coming months?
We are releasing and touring and a split EP with 'The Darien Venture' in April starting on the 12th at Sneaky Pete's, Edinburgh then Drouthy Neebors in Dundee on the 13th, PJ's in Dunfermline on the 14th, The Tunnels in Aberdeen on the 15th and then 'home' for our EP release show on the 16th at the Captian's Rest. We are also supporting the amazing Anathallo on the 24th May at the Captain's Rest. Lions.Chase.Tigers and Penguins Kill Polar Bears are also playing that show - so it is sure to be fantastic!

Ah beets, Nature's rubies...
Several years ago, it was reported in entertainment news that Mariah Carey was on a diet of purple foods, because she was convinced their anti-aging benefits would keep wrinkles at bay. As gimmicky as it may sound, there is some rationale behind this one!
Beets also help detox the body by purifying the blood and acting as a liver tonic. Combined with Vitamin E packed sunflower seeds and tarragon, a powerhouse herb full of vitamins and minerals also used as an appetite stimulant and digestive aid, Sri Dharma's Beet Salad is deceivingly light but can truly serve as a meal on its own or a great appetizer.
4 raw beets, grated
1 cup sunflower seeds, raw or toasted
1 tbs. chopped fresh tarragon
Cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil, to taste
1 cup sunflower seeds, raw or toasted
1 tbs. chopped fresh tarragon
Cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil, to taste
Begin by washing and trimming the beets as needed. If you buy beets with greens, you can use the greens for juicing or in any recipes that calls for dark greens. Grating the beets is a chore if you don't have a food processor. If grating by hand I recommend the boxy type grater, it keeps the shreds from flying all over the place and staining everything they fall on.
Once you have grated the beets you can add the sunflower seeds, and tarragon and oil. Tarragon leaves are longer than the thyme I used and chopping them releases their essential oils.
If you choose to use raw sunflower seeds you can soak them prior to making the salad to soften. I usually rinse once then leave them sitting on a wet paper towel for 20 minutes so they don't get too soft. I forgot to do this when I was prepping this time, so note the seeds will soak up the juice of the beets and soften that way as well if you let the salad sit for 15-20 minutes.
If you use roasted seeds, add them at the last minute before eating so they do not get soft!
Stir all the ingredients together. Makes 3-6 servings.

On a completely unrelated note, here is the text of my last post, converted into word art by the bank. Yes! By the bank. I know, you would think they have more important banking things to do, but apparently not. BNZ was tweeting about this new words-to-pictures generator and I made a very witty remark ("WHEN BANKS MEET BANKSY?!") and then they replied with THIS:
Banks are the best. The only confusing thing is that logically I know BNZ have a very talented social media team but their mascot is a small pig, and because of this every time they tweet I imagine the pig is sending it, and then I start thinking "but how does it type with trotters, they must have some sort of voice recognition thing" and then once again I realise that probably I should calm down and do some actual work.
I also have a bad cold - there was originally a paragraph here about how I'm producing enough snot to sustain a small economy, but I deleted it because it got too gross after I started talking about Snotroleum™. It's a biofuel. No more questions.
Here's a picture of a butterfly to help you stop thinking about it.
Handsome Boss Boyfriend was away last week; I did quite a decent job of keeping everything together, apart from the day when I forgot I had a client meeting and turned up to the office wearing a bright blue t-shirt with the company mascot on it, fluoro pink nail polish, and near-vertical hair. "I should really have txt you this morning," said Button*, "saying 'you have a meeting today, try not to look ridiculous.'"
So the next day I looked highly non-ridiculous in a collared shirt, work pants, boots, silver earrings and a necklace which is a Pegasus, except its butt broke off. SO CLOSE, AND YET SO FAR. Also I kept telling people about the Pegasus butt thing. "I like your necklace," says one of the copywriting team. "Thanks," I say excitedly, "his butt broke off!" And then I hold up the necklace to show them, and they peer at it for about 1.5 seconds and say, "...so it has." Why do I think everyone needs to know the exciting backstory of the Pegasus necklace? I don't know.
While HB was away I also got to exercise my driving skills, specifically "I'm On The Motorway, But I Don't Need To Panic" and the classic 'Yeah... Nah' merge. This is a driving technique where you change lanes, realise you didn't need to, and change back again. Other drivers love to see a good Yeah... Nah merge in practice. Trust me. Sometimes they toot their horns or, as I like to call it, "road applaud".
I'm just sort of rambling on here and, as much as I like to ramble, I could be watching Vikings right now so I shall leave you with the best work typo I have found recently: "$235 for a Large Chicken Coup."
PLUCK YOUR CITIZENS FROM THE TALONS OF - ok sorry I'll stop now.
*Button is one of my colleagues. She is very good at her job, heading expeditions to the pub, and saying things like, "Well, that's a fart on my face" when things go wrong in the office. "Button," we say sometimes, "there is Management about. They may not be interested in hearing about the fart on your face" "Give a fuck!" she says. Then she does a dance which is not unlike the Chicken Dance, except you are squatting and jumping up and down while you're doing it. I am fond of Button.

Top Ten Résumé Musts
- Must Be Scannable: Since a hiring manager is going to spend only a few seconds reviewing your résumé, before they decide whether to look closer, it's important for you to make your résumé scannable. That means using bullets and sentences effectively. Don't write huge paragraphs and bullet the important facts. Format your résumé to use bold titles and divide important categories for easy scanning.
- Make Your Name Noticeable: You want to have your name in a larger type than the rest of the document and you want it to be on the very top of the page. Think about the job search as a marketing job and your name is your brand. You want your name to be associated with the good things on your résumé.
- Make It Readable: If you're going to submit your résumé online, make sure it's readable. What looks nicely formatted in Word can come out looking horrific when you paste it into a text box. Make sure that what you submit is readable by a human being. It would be awful if a computer made sense of it and selected you only to be discarded because your résumé came out as gibberish.
- Use an Objective Statement: Use a short, simple objective sentence that states what kind of work (internship, full-time, etc.) and in what field, industry or company you are seeking work. After your reader knows your purpose, then they will move on to look at your skills. Use your cover letter to express more about your objective.
- Use Reverse Chronological Order: Start all sections with the most recent position or degree and work backwards in time.
- List Your GPA: Only list your GPA if it is 3.0 or higher. It's possible that if you don't list it, your potential employer will assume it was less than a 3.0, but it also gives them a chance to ask you about it. This way when they ask, you can make a case about why you are a good candidate nevertheless. Confidence and good communication skills while talking to an employer will often trump a lacking GPA.
- Highlight Your Computer Skills: Most employers look to see if you know the basic software like Microsoft Office software and then look to see if you have any field specific computer experience. List the programs that you are comfortable using.
- Always List Awards and Activities: Employers like to see students who have been active on campus. When you have held a leadership position in an activity, make sure to highlight it.
- Use bullets: Use bullets effectively alongside sentences. You don't want everything to be bulleted directly under your job title. You want a short paragraph of your job description and then 3-5 bulleted points highlighting any accomplishments and/or results you have had during that position. Bullets should begin with an action verb. Example: "Audited accounting statements and ledgers revealing $5,000 in unpaid bills".
- Use School as Experience: If you have very little professional experience, highlight your education. List related course work completed and then mention a few challenging projects that you completed. It's better to list coursework and projects that demonstrate your field knowledge rather than having a blank résumé.

January is Art Month!
We're back, and wow, what a lot of activity! We haven't even finished getting through the amazingly long open thread from Friday, but kudos go to YOU, dear readers, for carrying on our mission (ie. "changing the world, one apartment at a time") on your own (or shall we say "one long chat at a time?")
This month we dedicate to ART, meaning where you find good art, who makes it and how you get it framed or mounted.
Art is so important to the home.
But while we always recommend that clients avoid posters and cheap prints in favor of original, handmade or quality pieces, it is not always easy to find things that you like. We hope to continue to solve that problem this month. In our Stores Guide – artwork you will already find a list of good art resources, and in our Services Guide – artists, you will find a small, but growing list of good artists that sell their work directly.
If you have any tips, send them in and we'll blog them.


text: Some years ago, George Black happened upon a split bamboo fly rod in an antiques mall in Stillwater, Okla. A fly fisher of but a few years, he bought it for $87.50 and thought he had something special. He later learned it was mass-produced junk. But no mind. That rod essentially introduced Black to bamboo rods, the beginning of an unlikely quest -- part antiquing, part journalism, part outdoor adventure -- that became "Casting a Spell: The Bamboo Fly Rod and the American Pursuit of Perfection." Eventually, Black picked up a bamboo rod made early in the 20th century by Eustis Edwards and discovered what it was really all about. The development of the split bamboo fly rod was largely an American achievement, Black relates, and the artisans who made them were found in Maine, New York's Catskill Mountains and, most surprising, Connecticut. Running through the story is the tension between the quest for perfection in the product and corporate profit demands, because some of the small-rod builders eventually aligned with bigger companies, even Edwards. This book easily could have been a yawner, a history of split bamboo rods with its predictable tiny audience of aficionados and collectors. But it is also the story of the artisan temperament, of American tastes, of corporate economics, of changing technology, even globalization. So "Casting a Spell" may well have appeal beyond the handful of fly fishers who still use bamboo rods and may even have appeal beyond the fishing community. Graphite, incidentally, is the rod material of choice today, though Black, by now a complete convert to bamboo, sneers at such rods. Black's story carries us along like bubbles in a stream. He is on every page, traveling here to learn about this rod maker, traveling there to track down something about that one. All along the way we learn his likes and dislikes. Central to the book is Edwards. We all know people like Edwards, who, we learn, was one of the great bamboo fly rod makers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. People like Edwards are out there to this day, thank goodness. They are the craftspeople who take joy -- quietly -- in doing something very well, who won't compromise, who consequently work for peanuts. But, as Black learned, they make things that last. Black fishes with his antique rods.

Last night PalKid really wanted to sleep with Mommy, so after getting the kiddo washed up and heparinizing MrsPal's IV, I tucked them in, turned out the light, and backed away slowly.
This gave me a little while to browse the Twitters, and I started eavesdropping on a conversation between authors Tom Levinson and Jennifer Ouellette. These are both authors who take the geekiest of topics (obscure history, physics, Joss Whedon, zombies) and turn them into compelling narratives in which story and science blend seamlessly----no, they don't blend, they are the same thing.
Much of what occurs in science and medicine is fascinating in the hands of a good story teller. The everyday dramas in science, the every day giggles and horrors, those that we on the inside share only with each other----these can be translated successfully into a good read, one which is a good read because it is scientifically and medically true.
(See Samuel Shem's House of God which helped immortalize truthful, dehumanizing conditions, simultaneously making us laugh and making us hate ourselves for laughing).
Any conversation based on typed 140 character statements can be easy to misinterpret, but from what I could gather, they were trying to parse out the difference between striving for accuracy in drama, and creating drama that teaches accurate science. My take is that drama that happens to incorporate accurate science teaches without being didactic.
I love to tell stories. I may not be up there with Tom and Jennifer, but the whole blog thing has given many of us who have stories to tell an outlet, and while I like to know that people read, and I love the feedback, it is the writing that I really love. My favorite category is the one I call "Medical Musings," a place I tend to put less scientific pieces, but stories that are still set in the world of medicine. But I also like to share brief tales of medical discovery, stories that share with others my love for what I do.
My stories tend to be medically accurate, even though the patients are amalgams of various people I've seen, and they form the framework of what I'm trying to get across, but there is no reason a real writer, someone who writes professionally and is damned good at it, cannot learn about the real drama in real life, life that is based on science and affected every day by medicine.
While I stick to non-fiction, there is no need in fiction to make up medical facts, no need to invent implausible neutrinos or new diseases. Real life tosses us enough drama. I work in a thousand-bed hospital. There are at least that many stories here, real, engaging stories of real people with real diseases. And these people go home, and have families, and friends, and the stories are right there, waiting to be told.

Tuesday, June 17, 2008
By Abdul Rashid Haji Tahir.
One purpose of photography, especially photojournalism or news photography or documentary photography, is to record an event that will become history. In relation to this, Reuters does a good job by presenting us the history in their latest book, OUR WORLD NOW (paperback).
OUR WORLD NOW is published by Thames and Hudson (First release on 20 May 2008), which is also the publisher of THE STATE OF THE WORLD (in 2006). The book has 352 pages with full of color photographs from Reuters photographer.
OUR WORLD NOW is about a year in the life of our world , that is, YEAR 2007 which is remembered in over 350 photos. The photos are selected from 500,000 photos that Reuters photographers a.k.a photojournalists produced (?) (taken) in 2007.
OUR WORLD NOW covers a range of news photography themes, that is: politics, commerce, conflict, the environment, accidents and disasters, faith and festivities, entertainment, celebrity, and lifestyle. This is similar to THE STATE OF THE WORLD book which covers about the range of themes, but in terms of time it covers from Year 2000 to Year 2005. OUR WORLD NOW, however, is about things that happened in Year 2007 only.
OUR WORLD NOW presents photographs that "encompass the fantastic diversity of trends, moods, and stories that defined 2007".
OUR WORLD NOW is available at Amazon.Com. List price is USD24.95. Amazon price is USD16.47 (not including the delivery charge). Price may change from time to time. For further details, click the link below:
1. I include this book in my wishlist and I intend to buy one in the near future for my reference and collection.
2. I find out about this book from the News Photographer magazine June 2008 issue which I received this morning. (Too bad for me, I still have not receive my May issue which should arrive earlier. I still do not know what really happen to my magazines).

The promise and youth that is the Central Alberta Buccaneers cost them in the end.
The Bucs were eliminated in the Alberta Football League playoffs with a 23-8 loss to the Grande Prairie Drillers on Saturday in Grande Prairie.
It was a game the Buccaneers dominated in most aspects except finishing drives, settling for field goals, in which they were only good on one of three attempts.
The Bucs also had a safety and two singles off of their missed field goals.
"We weren't able to punch it in the end zone and that was basically the difference in the game," said head coach Duane Brown. "Yardage wise and time of possession, we dominated the game and to do that and not win is very frustrating."
The coach's disappointment was evident. This was not the way the season was supposed to go after finishing 2013 5-1 before being upset in the first round by the St. Albert Stars. They were supposed to build off that season and take a step closer to the region's first league title since the Red Deer Sooners won in 1998.
As the injuries mounted, however, they had to lean on more youth and suffered several close losses to finish the season 3-4 and in sixth spot. This put them on the road for a tough playoff game and they were unable to overcome a veteran Drillers squad.
But what did shine through is the future of the club.
Rookie quarterback Cole Stewart threw for nearly 200 yards and no interceptions, but was let down by several critical drops.
Meanwhile, rookie running back Junior Rivera ran for 150 yards and added another 75 yards receiving.
He had already locked up the league's rushing title with 660 yards on 96 rushes, 305 yards better than second on the list — Lloydminster Vandals quarterback Mike Holman.
He was also named to the league's all-star team.
"If he's not the rookie of the year in this league then there is something seriously wrong with the voting process," said Brown.
Defensively, the Buccaneers were dominant. They had three bad plays all game and it cost them. The rest of the game, they teed off on their hosts. They sacked the Drillers' quarterback six times, led by defensive Ian Keetch with three. Josh Achtemichuk and Jordan Willie also had one each.
Willie also had an interception, as did Keegan Poelzer.
"It was a phenomenal day for Willie, he's a great player," said Brown.
Their defence was well represented on the all-star team with Willie, Keetch, Tylor Johnson and Kenton Poelzer all getting the nod. Poelzer and Keetch finished two-three in total sacks in the regular season with 7.5 and 6.5 respectively. Dave Bosch of the Fort McMurray Monarchs led the AFL with 8.5.
Wide receiver Matt Merkley joined Rivera as an offensive all-star.
All that's left for the Bucs is their year end wrap up at the end of September, then it's hitting the gym and recruiting trail knowing better days are ahead.
"It was great learning for those guys and great practical experience for those guys who will be the heart and soul of this team for years to come," said Brown.

It is a great game though. It takes a lot of the things I didn't like about GTA3 PC and makes them better. I like how they used well known actors for the voices and made you much more of an interesting character. The main story is great and it's cool working your way up the crime ladder, trying to own the entire city. Buying property is also cool. Then you have planes and helicopters and bikes!!
The best things of all are the 80s soundtrack and the fact you don't need a 5000000000Ghz PC to run it. And at hiiiiiiiigh resolution it looks so much better than on the PS2. Yep, I love it.
