With the same setlist her "surprise" stop-off in Las Vegas, Britney Spears took to the concert stage again in San Francisco on early Sunday morning.
The pop superstar performed as part of a taping for "Good Morning America," the footage to air tomorrow morning (March 29) in full. The show was at Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, the new indoor locale after rain kept the show from being hosted in the Bay area's gay-friendly Castro neighborhood. Her show was preceded by stand-up and performances from a number of drag queens.
"Hold It Against Me," "Till the World Ends" and "Big Fat Bass" were performed, with different costumes and set pieces for each, including some pyrotechnics, a light-up bodice and plenty of hair-tossing. Will.i.am made a video appearance for the latter, and energetic dancers gyrated around what looked like the balance bar featured in Spears' "3," a song she also sampled. "Hold It Against Me" sent fans into a frenzy with multiple unison dance moves.
It appears that Spears was lip-syncing for at least some portions of the show, if not all; its been a topic frequently debated and discussed among fans and concert-goers. The lack of live vocals may be part of preparations for Spears' speculative "Femme Fatale" tour, which may be announced soon. Her new album will be released tomorrow, the same day as her "GMA" and "Jimmy Kimmel" appearances.
Check out a couple of fan-taped videos from San Fransisco below. What do you think of her dance moves, is she up to par of past performances?

So here it is
As soon as I had this I started using it daily, and although the Benefit chap said I could use it instead of foundation, for ultimate coverage I used it lightly over the top of Maybelline's Dream Matte Mouse. I was in love. The shade I have (Champagne, or "Me Vain?") is a little darker than natural skin tone but I use quite a bit of fake tan so tisn't really a problem.
I used this everyday for about a week, I know it's described as Silky but it's definitly a matte finish and covered up my redness relitively well, although I think to banish the bane of my life completly it'd have to be used with a concealer from the gods.
After a week though I started getting a little bit blotchy and pimply so I cast Hello Flawless to the dark depths of my make up bag and only bought it up for air once a week. However the pimples and blotches kept on a'comin and I quickly realised it was the Judas of makeups the dream matte mouse that was attacking my skin. Oh Hello Flawless why did I doubt you? Here, have your well deserved ! back....
I now use this every day (as you can tell by the little silver splodge coming through) over my Maybelline Dream Satin Liquid and the two have a very nice little relationship going on.
Like most Benefit products a lot of thought has gone into the packaging, you get a mirror, a brush and a sponge with 0.25 oz of powder which might not seem like much but I've used this every day for a while now and I really don't use it sparingly. It's £24.50 which was a huge splurge and a bit of a silly risk for me but It was deffs worth it and I'll be buying it again as soon as it runs out.
Right, I think I might have rambled on enough. Has anyone else tried this? Had good/bad experiences? Lemme know!
And as always, as I always seem to post on a Sunday, hope everyone's had a good weekend. I went to Wembley yesterday to watch England Vs Switzerland which wasn't the best of games but the atmosphere (especially from the Swiss who put us to shame a little bit) was amazing.

Here you can see the "final printed version". I have to say that I am very confident with the quality, the colours are brilliant and it actually looks exactely like I hoped it to be^^
Just the "D" at the cover might be a bit to far left... but, it's not really disturbing.
Yeah it's German^^ Anybody wants a little lesson? "Danke" means "Thanks" :)
I just found one little mistake in the book, just by one picture I forgot the shadow... But I think that only I will recognize that...
What do you think?? It's not that cheap, but for a special occasion or a special person - any time!
I am actually not the big fan of photo books when you can buy them at a store, but when they are your own taken pictures, it's just great and you kind of proud of it!! :)
So I'll see how my grandma reacts tomorrow when I present it to her!

Indices didn't move much today. In fact they didn't move much all week. Only small caps managed to make new highs after small gains today. The market is consolidating since the two previous weeks brought big gains (and a steep rally).
5m-chart SPY:
Daily charts DIA, SPY, QQQ and IWM:
Euro, oil, metals
The euro seems to be building a bullflag.
Oil pulled back towards $102. Not a bad week for oil. Six consecutive weeks of higher highs so far.
Metals didn't move much. Small gains today. On the daily chart they might be building bullflags.
Have a great weekend!

text: "I'm not a major fan of the vampire genre, but Bonds is something rather special. Taking a theme which is growing a bit tired and creating an original tale that moves along at a cracking pace with a storyline which keeps you guessing. Just the right kind of mix of scary and storytelling at its best. Definitely looking forward to the next book from Marie Anne Cope. Great debut novel!"

Competition #1
Shortly after the birth of this blog, the wheels were in motion to start a BBQ team. A few months of tireless work by myself, my brother Jeff, and my Dad, started a hobby that has since grown to something bigger than we had initially imagined. Today team "Rub Em' Raw" has gained sponsorship by Tim's Special Cut Meat, been featured in The Spokesman Review-Jeff even got interviewed on KVNI. If you know anything about Jeff, you know he could sell salt to a slug. So, as usual, he put in hours of research and networking time to get us an opportunity to rub elbows with Harry Soo at the Boise Music Festival July 24th. Contributing years of experience, two Weber Smoky Mountain Grills, and two Weber Performer Grills, Jeff is a huge asset to any team and we're lucky to have him.
My Dad, who will forever be prepared for any situation ever, has purchased a COM190, which he promptly modified to the envy of every Traeger owner that has laid eyes on it. A commercial smoker has to be towed and an equally modified motor home does just that as well as give us a kitchen and all the comforts of home for competition. Dad possesses the experience of Jeff and I combined and, needless to say, makes BBQing gourmet cuts look effortless.
Our first experience cooking together was at a Pacific Northwest BBQ Association class and competition. Some of the top competitors in the Northwest were kind enough to share some (very little) of their secrets to prepare us for competitions. After cooking all day, our products were judged by newly certified PNWBA judges. Jeff took grand champion and Dad took first in pork butt. We were hooked and optimistic.

Dad on the COM190 the day after the class . . .
The experience was great, but nothing like the competitions to come . . .

New additions to my Necropolis warband
With 2nd edition out my 1500pt warband was now under 1000pts(but in way that was a good thing )
So an addition of some Ghast and a banner bearer and musician I'm back up to 1000pts
Not sure if I'm 100% thrilled with the ghast skin( was trying for a Purplish/Grey)
One thing about 2nd ed Warlord is that you no longer have to by spells all casters now have tombs of spells and spell points, makes it a lot easier when planing a warband.

Cornelius Fermenter Lids – convert kegs to fermenters
Cornelius Keg Fermenter Lid via Adventures in Homebrewing. It has a 3/4″ Hole that's designed to accommodate a #3 drilled stopper (included) and airlock (also included). That allows you use a Cornelius Keg as a fermenter. Use a 5 gallon keg as a secondary for a 5 gallon batch, use a 5 gallon keg as a primary fermenter for smaller batches or use a 10 gallon Cornelius Keg as a fermenter for 5 gallon+ batches.
I have two 10 gallon kegs that I use as primaries. This allows you to do quite a few things including, easily transfer under pressure, ferment under pressure, carbonate in the primary fermenter and carbonate and serve from the primary (with a cut off dip tube).

In Rhode Island, there are two categories of custody: (1) legal custody, which is the parent's right to make major decisions about the child's upbringing (i.e. health care, education, religious decisions), and (2) physical placement, also known as physical custody, which is the daily care of the child.
Additionally, custody may be sole or joint. For example, the court may award both parents physical placement (joint physical custody) or only one parent physical placement (sole physical custody). Parents may also have sole or share legal custody (i.e. the right to make major decisions). Remember, the parent that does not have physical placement of the child may have visitation rights.
In determining custody, the court will conduct a best interest test. Factors that the court will consider are:
- The wishes of the child's parent or parents regarding the child's custody,
2. The reasonable preference of the child, if the court deems the child to be of sufficient intelligence, understanding, and experience to express a preference,
3. The interaction and interrelationship of the child with the child's parent or parents, the child's siblings, and any other person who may significantly affect the child's best interest,
4. The child's adjustment to the child's home, school, and community,
5. The mental and physical health of all individuals involved,
6. The stability of the child's home environment,
7. The moral fitness of the child's parents, and
8. The willingness and ability of each parent to facilitate a close and continuous parent-child relationship between the child and the other parent.
It is important to know that none of these factors has more weight than another. Rather, the judge conducts a balancing test of these factors as applied to your case.

I have been quiet but not idle! About three weeks ago I started a new textiles course – a BA degree this time, for those who have followed my exploits since the HND course days. Over the last two years or so, the idea of doing the degree has been turning over and over in my head, with doubts galore.
Another degree? (Why yes, of course. So I tell myself.)
Am I a bit too old for this? (Nope, never. Although I was told a few days ago, by one of my new – and much younger – coursemates, that I 'look good for my age'. Which was hilarious. I'm 29.)
Shouldn't I just work with the qualifications/skills I already have instead of spending more time and money studying? (Turns out pretty much no-one will employ you meaningfully in textiles without at least a BA. The architecture degree I have counts for roughly nothing in this regard. I also really LOVE learning new stuff.)
Et cetera.
So the upshot of the soul searching is that I am now learning to weave from scratch and having my mind expanded by all sorts of extra knowledge about knitted and printed textiles as well. I had a great time last week sitting in the weave studio surrounded by yarn, making yarn wraps to test colours. And *cheese alert* when I was making my first warp yesterday I actually caught myself thinking that I couldn't be much happier than I was at that moment, dancing my lengths of yarn around the stakes.
So today I transferred my warp to the loom and drew my warp threads through the heddles. If any of you have read my posts about hatmaking you'll know how much I love the process of making things, so I put my headphones on (Lorraine McCauley, brilliant soundtrack for working) and got stuck in to the fiddly and oddly enjoyable work of drawing all 192 individual threads through the heddles.
I have come home from a week of early starts (up at 5.45am) and late finishes (home at about 7 or 8pm) still wanting to do more and share my enthusiasm with others. I am so happy I'm doing this course – it's early days but I feel so ready for the challenge and the new skills and knowledge I hope to acquire over the next three years. The millinery will not be abandoned, rather I want to augment it with the other textiles skills. If anyone had told me 10 years ago that I would be doing this, I'd have probably said they had the wrong person. I had life all planned out to be in a stable career and settled down and possibly starting a family around now – but now I'm here, I feel like I'm exactly where I'm meant to be. I feel younger and more curious and more excited about the future than I did 5 or 6 years ago, and also very very lucky. I think that's telling.

Cosmetic dentistry is recently acquiring popularity as many folks are wanting to enhance the look of their smile. Many people are opting to go to cosmetic dentistry clinic than heading to the regular clinics that we have. Most dental clinics are addressing dental concerns like preventing cavities and performing tooth extractions. Cosmetic dentistry may still do these basic dental procedures but the principal focus is on improving the appearance of a patient's smile.
Cosmetic surgery is able to provide patients with more attractive appearance. Many people are actually struggling with low self-esteem because of various kinds of dental problems. Because of this advanced technology that appropriately addressed dental problems, people can already live normally and be comfortable mingling with people around.
Dental problems such as chipped, cracked, broken or deeply discolored teeth can easily be corrected with cosmetic dentistry. Amazingly, it can as well minimize the signs of aging that leave the patient a younger looking appearance. Moreover, it is capable of repairing dental damage caused by trauma, illness, infection, developmental abnormalities, or heredity which are conditions that are difficult to treat years ago.
The Essential Laws of Professionals Explained
An increasing number of cosmetic dentists are setting up clinics in lots of cities in different nations. Cosmetic surgeries are increasingly becoming very accessible to everybody. Because these dentists are supplying specialized solutions, operations are quite high-priced to avail but because of the increasing need and because these experts want to extend their expertise to a lot of communities, many procedures in cosmetic dentistry are becoming much more affordable.
What I Can Teach You About Health
Another benefit from availing cosmetic dentistry is that it has long term effects. This is very beneficial for patients as this allows them to save money by not having several sessions just to get the desired outcome.
Many patients are very satisfied because other than the fact that they are receiving the desired result, the recovery time from cosmetic dentistry is also quite short. Most surgical procedures need a lengthy recovery time and constraining the patient to do the necessary tasks and it would commonly involve a great amount of discomfort. Patients are not terrified to undergo cosmetic dentistry procedure as there is only a short recovery time and very little pain in the recovery period.
Today, dental technology is providing fast, efficient and relatively cost efficient ways to improve our smiles by the use of cosmetic dentistry. Many webpages are featuring fundamental information to inform the public concerning what cosmetic dentistry can do. Lots of people are obtaining this procedure. Several cosmetic dentistry clinics have their websites to offer convenience to their clients in setting up appointments for certain procedures.

The North/South Debate: Technology, Basic Human Needs and the New International Economic Order. Working Paper Number Twelve. 1980.
Galtung, Johan
This document contains two articles by Johan Galtung presented as papers at an international conference on the relationship of technology to the environment and human needs. The monograph is part of a series intended to stimulate research, education, dialogue, and political action toward a just world order. The first paper, "Towards a New International Technological Order," focuses on the negative consequences of western technology for the culture and social structure of developing nations. A major problem is that western technology carries with it a code of economic, social, cultural, and cognitive structures which are often not easily integrated into non-western nations. The second paper, "The New International Economic Order and the Basic Needs Approach," explores the political conflicts and compatibilities between the theory of the New International Economic Order (based on improving trade between developing and developed nations) and the Basic Needs approach (based on the fulfillment of basic needs at the individual level). The article concludes with the recommendation that people responsible for foreign policy in developing and developed nations and in international organizations should seek to combine elements of the two theories so that true human and social development take precedence over political objectives.

Wake Up to Waking Life
I finally visited the fairly new espresso house, Waking Life, on 976 Haywood Rd in West Asheville. Joining me were two houseguests, both of whom consider themselves espresso junkies and experts in the craft. Hip artists living in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, my friends can get some of the best, most compulsively perfect espresso in America on their morning walk to work.
These New Yorkers were humbled before the ultra-specific, handcrafted espresso, presented in precious robin's egg blue cups. Sunlight streamed in to the cozy little shop. We sipped our drinks and watched in awe as customers, all sitting alone in front of laptops, meandered in and out of conversation, debate, laughter, and then back to the solitaire game or whatever. They didn't arrive together, but the atmosphere there was so comfortable, they spontaneously treated each other like old pals, working side by side. This phenomenon felt completely foreign to my New York visitors, who declared their Americano a perfect storm of balance, richness, and adrenaline.
In this Starbucks age, a local coffee shop must deliver high quality coffee or have an unbeatable location to stay competitive. Waking Life's owner has invested most of his money and energy into the (hand-cranked) espresso machine, the fine, locally roasted coffee, and a small assortment of rustic loose teas. Get the espresso right, and you've got an instant following. Waking Life has earned their place in the coffee pantheon of Asheville, and is sure to attract a dedicated clientele.
When it comes to coffee, I'm kind of like the girls from Sex in the City. I often go for the Cosmopolitan of caffeine, the Mocha. I detected none of the requisite thick, high-fructose corn and chocolate syrup in my mocha. Instead, the coffee leaped ahead of a lingering chocolate aftertaste, balanced so exceptionally well, I hadn't even ruined my appetite for dinner. Rather than simply discerning the tongue parching experience of "sweet" coffee, I was able to separate the flavors enough to experience them both, bitter acid and sweet decadence, before they met in an erotic tango of caffeinated bliss.
If espresso's not your thing, you can find (arguably) the best cup of coffee in town. Each individual cup is hand brewed, just for you. That's dedication.
I love when a fanatic like Jared Rutledge opens a coffee shop, simply because he loves his town enough to do the hard work to elevate the quality of its beloved coffee. Sipping our steaming drinks on a frigid winter day, we felt loved too.
If you have a morning, afternoon or evening to kill, I suggest you spend it at Waking Life, open 7am-9pm daily.

I'm the same as you – I usually go for the sweet drinks. When I tried Waking Life I just got a latte with nothing fancy, and I barely even had to put any sugar in it. The coffee was so good, so perfect, so balanced, that I didn't even need to! This place is awesome. I live on the east side and it's worth a drive over to west asheville to have a drink.
February 16, 2010 10:42 pm
hey ya'll, thanks for the kind words and review! one tiny correction – our address is 976 haywood.
glad you liked the coffee. it's been a fun journey so far getting this thing off the ground, but i think the coffee is good and i'm glad you do too. i also love the fact that there's usually a decent conversation going on in the shop.
i actually use a semi-sweet organic dominican chocolate for the mochas (http://bit.ly/bSmnn3) and people seem to be fond of it. i don't often drink them but i think it tastes nice and isn't overbearing.
thanks for stopping by, and i thoroughly appreciate all the word of mouth that's been happening. please tell your friends if you like it, and tell me if you don't! haha

Just this week a study released by JAMA found that doctors recommended the use of sunscreen in less than 1% of patient visits. We are constantly being told to make sure we slather ourselves up with sunscreen before going outside. Here are three good reasons (and one not as good) why we might not want to use it:
1. Endocrine Disruption – Some sunscreens are defined as chemical sunscreens, meaning they are made with chemicals which absorb the sun's UV rays. Some of these sunscreens contain chemicals called endocrine disrupters. Endocrines as defined in the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary (MW) are "a natural substance that is produced in the body and that influences the way the body grows or develops." An endocrine disrupter would be something that would interfere with the body being able to produce these. Chemical sunscreens are absorbed into the body's bloodstream. According to endocrine.org, of the 15 chemical based sunscreens on the market, nine are endocrine disruptors. When the production of these endocrines are interrupted, there could be problems with such things as early onset puberty, infertility, and low sperm counts, just to name a few.
2. Free Radicals – Because of these chemical sunscreen absorbing UV rays, it is possible that these chemicals may mutate when they are used up and then produce free radicals. Free radicals as defined by cancer.gov as "A type of unstable molecule that is made during normal cell metabolism (chemical changes that take place in a cell). Free radicals can build up in cells and cause damage to other molecules, such as DNA, lipids, and proteins. This damage may increase the risk of cancer and other diseases." Is this a risk you want to take?
3. Vitamin D – Naturally sunscreens are used to block the sun. By doing this they also block vitamin D which is essential for your bones, muscles, brain function, helps fight off cancer and it works with your immune system to fight infections. A deficiency in vitamin D can cause a whole slew of health problems. For a complete list see the link below to the Vitamin D Council.
Finally, the "not as good" reason to not wear sunscreen. Back in 2012 there were reports that one sunscreen, made by Banana Boat, would ignite if exposed to a flame before it dried. At the time these products were recalled, but there have been no reports that the problem has been fixed.
While there are plenty of good reasons to recommend it, these are three good reasons not to use sunscreens. There are alternatives out there, especially of the natural variety. But even then, consumers should read the ingredient labels since there are cases where products labeled as being natural or using natural ingredients are not. There are also foods which are rich in anti-oxidants which can boost your risk to sun exposure. Apples, strawberries, red kidney beans and carrots are just a few of these. There are also natural vitamin supplements such as astaxanthin which helps your skin resist sunburn and of course you could always refuse to go outside.

Days before he was fired, James B. Comey, the former FBI director, asked the Justice Department for a significant increase in resources for the bureau's investigation into Russia's interference in the presidential election, according to four congressional officials, including Sen. Richard J. Durbin.
Comey made his appeal to Rod J. Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general, who also wrote the Justice Department's memo that was used to justify the firing of Comey this week, the officials said.
"I'm told that as soon as Rosenstein arrived, there was a request for additional resources for the investigation and that a few days afterwards, he was sacked," said Durbin, D-Ill. "I think the Comey operation was breathing down the neck of the Trump campaign and their operatives, and this was an effort to slow down the investigation."
Comey briefed members of Congress on the meeting in recent days, telling them about his meeting with Rosenstein, who is the most senior law enforcement official supervising the Russia investigation. Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself because of his close ties to the Trump campaign and his undisclosed meetings with the Russian ambassador.

The timing of Comey's request is not clear-cut evidence that his firing was related to the Russia investigation. But it is certain to fuel bipartisan criticism that President Donald Trump appeared to be meddling in an investigation that had the potential to damage his presidency.
The FBI declined to comment. But Sarah Isgur Flores, the Justice Department spokeswoman, said, "The idea that he asked for more funding" for the Russia investigation was "totally false." She did not elaborate.
In his briefing with members of Congress, Comey said he had been frustrated with the amount of resources being dedicated to the Russia investigation, according to two of the officials. Until two weeks ago, when Rosenstein took over as deputy attorney general, the investigation was being overseen by Dana Boente, who was acting as the deputy and is now the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.
Comey has said he was hoping that he would find a supportive boss in Rosenstein and, according to the officials, pressed for more resources so he could accelerate the investigation, which is also examining possible collusion between Trump associates and the Russian interference campaign. It was unclear how Rosenstein reacted to the request, or whether the White House was informed of it.
To a president who puts a premium on loyalty, Comey represented a fiercely independent official who wielded incredible power. Comey made his career standing up to members of the George W. Bush administration on matters of surveillance. And his advisers have cast his handling of the investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private email server as evidence that he was equally willing to criticize the Democratic nominee for president.
Comey's handling of the Clinton investigation was the stated reason for his termination, and the White House has insisted it had nothing to do with the Russia inquiry, which has become a major distraction for the Trump administration.
Comey broke with long-standing policies by speaking publicly about the Clinton investigation twice last year. He also termed Clinton's handling of classified information as "extremely careless," an estimation that went far beyond what authorities normally say in cases where nobody is charged.

text: This week have fun as you explore evaporation, dissolving, changes in states of matter and more! It would be a wonderful idea to set up a water "play station" outside for free exploration. While it might look like like your child is just playing in the water, he or she is actually learning about the physical characteristics of matter, objects that sink or float, measurement, and so much more! If your water explorations take place outside your child will learn about how the sun influences water temperatures and how water reacts to wind! Also, your child is working on small motor skills with all of that pouring and scooping! To create a water exploration station, simply fill a clear plastic bin with water. Supply measuring cups and spoons, clean food containers with lids, a pitcher, slotted and "unslotted" spoons of various sizes, turkey basters, medicine droppers, whatever you can find that can scoop, pour or measure! Sit with your child and talk about what he or she is doing as water play should always be supervised.

After I took off my doctor's glasses
A few months back I had a rather painful epiphany.
Up to that point, I had been battling boredom and indecisiveness in my work. I had lost my inner fire. My inner engine sputtered, then stopped altogether.
What had brought on this sense of ennui? It's simple. I asked myself one poignant question: Is this the life I really want to live?
For several weeks, I avoided the answer. I wasn't ready to look at the truth that was trying to bubble up.
Finally, I became so sick of my self and my weariness, I allowed myself the face the answer.
My soul slowly began to release a tiny bit of its truth.
Every day I was scared of what might come to the surface. Do I need to leave my job?
My job meant so much to me. It always felt more like a calling than a simple J.O.B.
Somehow I knew it wasn't my job that was dragging me down. I realized my numbness and pain was deeper than that.
By asking myself if my life was truly what I wanted, I was able to find clarity. I felt as if I had taken off my glasses and discovered my vision was much better without them.
Ever since I was 12 I wanted to become a doctor. It's still my dream, my wish, my everything.
Now, it's shifted. It's different.
I used to look at the world through doctor-colored glasses. I would meet new people and my brain would start to analyze them in a medical way, which sucked the joy out of new relationships.
Now that my glasses are gone, I live with a new normal. I'm more real, more human. What I realized is that my glasses kept people away from me. I created a distance, as if their messy truths were too much for me.
Not any more. My question opened the floodgates to another level of interaction, realness, and love.
In the end, I had to move away from treating a disease to support life. This seems contradictory, but it's not.
If you take a closer look you'll see that treating a disease requires you to focus on the problem—it's is all about a problem mindset.
However, supporting life is about finding solutions—it's a solution mindset.
Once I had internalized this, play and lightness showed up in my work. Intensity? Yes. I'm all for it without the difficulties that used to accompany it.
Ultimately, the answer I was seeking was, yes. I do want to live this life. And, I want it to include laughter, lightness and joy.
Now, I incorporate a big dose of play and lightness to my work. And my patients and I feel better and get more done.

So today, Vivienne and I were cleaning up the kitchen after breakfast (pancakes, YUM!), when Kevin calls. He told Vivienne that him and C.J. wanted us to check out their room and see all the neat stuff the guys from Springfield sent them, (Danny, Jason, Kyle and Marc are pen pals with Kevin and C.J.) and could we come over in half an hour? Sure, why not? So Vivienne let me ride her new bike and she rode her scooter over to their house. We agreed to switch on the way back
"So why do you think the boys wanna show us their room?", I wondered.
"Probably to brag", Vivienne began. "I think Kevin's a little jealous since you're always coming to see me and Danny and the guys can't come to visit. Betta says Kevin and C.J. are always getting packages from your friends, so they probably just wanna show off. You know how boys are."
I rolled my eyes. "Yeah, everything always has to be a competition. Boys!"
"My mom also thinks Kevin likes you a little", Vivienne told me. I looked at her in shock and almost ran into her! "Hey Julie, watch it!"
"Oops sorry, Viv." Then I said, "Likes me? No way! With all the dumb jokes he's always playing on me?"
"My mom says boys do dopey stuff like that when they like a girl, 'cos they're too young to know how to be all lovey dovey."
"I like your mom, Vivienne, but I think she's wrong. That turkey just gets a kick out of making me look dumb."
"You're probably right, Julie."
So we get to their house. Betta and Little G are out shopping with their mom, and their dad is out working on something in the garage. So we went upstairs to their room.
It looked like a regular boys room, (I guess.). They had superheroes lamps, bedspreads and posters. There were cars and balls, and action guys all over the place. Just the kind of place where a boy would be happy. They also had some school pictures of the guys from Springfield on the walls.
I guess that's OK. Vivienne has one of my school pictures on her night stand. Kevin showed us the toy box full of Hot Wheels stuff, and the comic book box. The guys had sent them that stuff.
Vivienne sat down on C.J.'s bed and their dog Barkley jumped up on her..
"Barkley, you bad dog", C.J. scolded. "You know you're not allowed on our beds! Get down!"
Barkley didn't budge. So C.J. yelled, "Barkley , DOWN!!"
Barkley jumped down and started whining. He sounded just like Boomer whenever I scold him.
I don't ever think I've ever heard C.J. yell before. Last year, Kevin had him so whipped he hardly said 2 words when Kevin was around. I guess he's finally wearing his "Big Boy Pants". Right on, C.J.!
"Hey Vivienne, wanna see my action figures?", C.J. asked her.
"OK", she answered.
C.J. pulled out Spider-Man and Doctor Octopus. I only know that 'cos Kyle has the same guys. I wonder if the guys in Springfield sent those too?
Then Kevin said to me, "Hey Julie, did you know I put a snake in Danny's bunk when I was at camp with you guys?"
"You did? Danny Never told me that."
"Probably because he was embarrassed he screamed like a girl when he saw it!"
I laughed at that. "Speaking of screaming like a girl---"
Kevin held up his hand. "Please don't remind me!"
"Remember the talent show, Kevin? You were pretty good on your guitar, and didn't even need a tape player."
"Yeah, you girls weren't too bad with your batons either. Oh hey! Danny told me his band played "A Horse With No Name", by America. That's one of my favorite songs! I've been practicing. Check me out..."
Kevin grabbed his guitar and played that song. (And don't tell Danny I said this, but I think Kevin was actually better!)
When Kevin was finished playing, Kevin jumped up and pulled some toy ray guns off of his shelf and handed them to me and Vivienne.
"Hey girls, wanna play Space Rangers? Me and C.J. will even be the bad guys."
"Nah...we'd better be getting home for lunch", Vivienne told the boys. "Thanks for showing us around your room, guys."
"Yeah thanks", I said. "You have a pretty cool room...well cool for boys, anyway. See you guys later."
Then Vivienne and I rode back to her house..
"So what were you and Kevin talking about when I was playing with C.J.?"
"We were just remembering about when we went to camp, why?"
"Oh no reason. I just thought he might be asking you out for a date!" Vivienne busted out laughing!
"Vivienne Walton! If you tease me anymore about Kevin, I'm gonna pour cold water on your head when you're sleeping!"
"Calm down I was just kdding, Julie. But you're right, I shouldn't tease you. I guess I just wanted to see what you'd say."
"I say Kevin Fleagle is a turkey!", I laughed.
"Come on, I'll race you back to my house", Vivienne said as she took off.
"When you're on a bike? No fair! Hey! Vivienne come back!" (Gotta go now future readers!)
"Come on Vivienne, wait up, will ya?"
Until tomorrow,
Your friend,
Julie Newman

Art auctioneers get a chance to explore a vast array of art from all over the world. There are numerous artists and works that they learn about and present to those attending art auctions. One artist that many auctioneers enjoy is Percy Gray, an American artist. If you look at some of his work, you are sure to recognize some pieces since much of his art is very famous. If you are new to art, this is a good artist to start with due to his interesting life, techniques, and vast body of work.
The Early Life of This Iconic Artist
Percy Gray was born on October 3, 1869 and he hails from San Francisco, California. He was born with the given name Henry, not Percy. His family has a history of being proficient in the arts and in literature. This artist enchanted the world with his art until his death in 1952.
A Brief Telling of the Career of Percy Gray
It was approximately 1906 when Gray began his foray into the world of art. He had a career that spanned approximately 4 decades in which he created an array of unique and stunning pieces. In 1907, the Sketch Club hosted an exhibition and this is where Gray first had the chance to show his work to a broad audience. Throughout his career, Gray was a rather focused artist when it comes to style, making it relatively easy to spot his work once you are familiar with it.
He created a variety of landscape works that were described as modernist turmoil in terms of style. Much of his work was focused on his home state of California and the natural beauty that it possessed. He spent a lot of time exploring nature to inspire his works which were said to be poetic reverberations of the nature that he saw. He worked to recreate the nature he saw and had a lot of focus on places that had wooded areas.
He has many famous paintings that you can explore to see more about his style:
-Spring Landscape
-Quarry Near Spring Valley Lakes
-View Through the Trees
-Oaks Near Ranch, Carmel Valley
-Pasture in Spring
-Monterey Dunes
-Mount Tamalpais
-Slanting Oak
-Mt. Tamalpais with Haystacks
-Oak Grove in a Blue Mist
-Distant Hills, California

You can certainly see why many art auctioneers are fascinated with the life and work of Percy Gray. He is certainly unique in many ways and created art that has inspired many artists. As you learn more about art and those responsible for it, make sure to take the time to learn more about Gray.
