NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- The Nasdaq Composite hammered out its ninth record close in 10 sessions Thursday as investor appetite for computer-related names showed no sign of dimming.
Elsewhere, U.S. stocks traded mixed on balance, with little of fundamental note to influence activity.
"The bond market's closed, so there's no real indicator to work off of to see what kind of fear or lack of fear there is regarding next week's Fed meeting," said Arnie Owen, managing director of equities at Cruttenden Roth.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, -1.22% declined 2.44 points to 10,595.30. Microsoft, up 2 1/2 to 89 5/8, was the best performer within the barometer.
"There's some economic data out Friday, but it's just going to be a trading range market until the Fed meeting on Tuesday," said Barry Berman, managing director of equity trading at Robert W. Baird & Co.
The Nasdaq Composite ascended 41.33 points, or 1.3 percent, to 3,197.29. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index SPX, -1.42% rose 0.6 percent. The Russell 2000 Index RUT, -1.69% of small-capitalization stocks sank 0.3 percent.
"I think the market is on very firm footing," said Owen. "The third quarter came and went, and results were pretty darned good. The economy's still growing very nicely, with very low inflation and a low specter of inflation."
The was closed in observance of Veteran's Day. Wednesday, the 30-year Treasury went out with a yield TYX, -1.42% of 6.085 percent.
According to the action in interest rate futures contracts, market participants are assigning a greater-than-50-percent chance of a rate hike at Tuesday's Federal Reserve policy meeting. Last week, the figure stood at less than 40 percent.
Owen agrees that most people are up in the air over whether or not the Fed will tighten.
"I would not be surprised to see this market go through the roof if the Fed does nothing," he added.
New York Stock Exchange losers led risers by17 to 13. Advancing issues held a 23-share lead over decliners in the Nasdaq Stock Market.
Big Board volume came to 890 million shares, a tad less than the recent average and 10 percent less than that of Wednesday.
"There are enough quality names up in here that are breaking out on volume to lead me to look for higher prices," said Gregory Kuhn, portfolio manager at Kuhn Asset Management Co.
"Technically, you still have some stocks completing bases," Kuhn added. "Generally, when you have this situation, the market's not about to fall apart -- it's actually setting up for a follow-through move."
Inside the tech complex, the semiconductors cranked out more gains. The group has jumped about 33 percent over the past two weeks on optimism regarding earnings for 2000. Kind words from Merrill Lynch analyst Joe Osha aided sentiment within the group Thursday. Osha bumped up his estimate of 2000 chip industry revenue growth to 21.5 percent from 18.6 percent. "If we are right about our assumption that the cycle has several years more to run, then these stocks have much further to go," Osha said in a research report.
Among the chips, Vitesse Semiconductor put on 5 3/8 to 53 1/2, LSI Logic 4 5/16 to 65 1/16, Texas Instruments 4 1/16 to 101 7/16, Novellus Systems 7 1/8 to 97 1/8, Lam Research 2 7/8 to 92 1/2, and ASM Lithography 3 1/2 to 82 1/4.

Salem Communications SALM, -0.38% was dunked for a 6 3/4-point setback to 19 1/2 after checking in with a penny-a-share loss from operations in the third period. Most analysts canvassed by First Call had envisioned a profit of a penny.
Cisco Systems (CSCO CSCO, -0.56% : news, msgs) added 4 1/4 to 83 3/4 as it followed through on Wednesday's impressive breakout.
Travel service Expedia (EXPE EXPE, -2.39% : news, msgs), which made its debut on Wednesday, put on another 2 9/16 to 56.
Bank One (ONE ONE, +2.03% : news, msgs) issued an earnings warning, its second since August. The company said continuing weakness at its credit-card unit will leave fourth-quarter earnings below analysts' already-lowered projections. The stock appreciated 3/8 to 35. See full story.
Retailer The Gap (GPS GPS, -4.11% : news, msgs) rose 1/16 to 34 1/4 after sneaking past the First Call estimate by a penny with its third-quarter results of 35 cents a share. Gap netted 27 cents a year ago. See full story.
Land's End LE, -3.52% sank 27 3/16 to 56 1/8. Third-quarter net came to 28 cents a share, 3 cents richer than the First Call estimate and 27 cents north of the year-earlier tally. But the retailer steered analysts to expect softer revenue and elevated expenses in the near-term. See full story.

Microsoft MSFT, -1.88% gained 2 1/2 to 89 5/8. The software Goliath announced a strategic alliance with the RadioShack unit of Tandy Corp.

Tandy rival Circuit City bounded up 7 1/4 to 45 1/2 on speculation that it, too, would craft a similar alliance with a media player. Also, Best Buy was up 5 7/8 to 54 3/8. See full story.
BEA Systems beas was ahead 3 13/16 to 70 after Credit Suisse First Boston analyst Wendell Laidley hoisted his 12-month price target on the enterprise software developer to $107. Laidley repeated his "buy" recommendation.

Town of Madison Designates September 17 Beverly Schirmeier Day
At the 42nd Annual Meeting of the Madison Art Society held at the Madison Country Club a number of citations were awarded to Beverly Schirmeier for her almost a dozen years of leadership in the art society. Thomas J. Banisch First Selectman of the Town of Madison brought to the meeting, along with the signatures of the Board including Alfred J. Goldberg, Robert G. Hale, Scott M. Murphy and Bruce H. Wilson, a proclamation to name September 17, 2017 as Beverly Schirmeier Day in the Town of Madison.
Eric Dilner, Executive Director of Shoreline Arts Alliance, presented the State of Connecticut Citation to Beverly from the entire membership of the General Assembly of the State of Connecticut.
|Beverly Schirmeier, Marge Casey and Eric Dilner
They acknowledged it was through her artistic talent and gifted leadership that the Madison Art Society experienced unprecedented growth. It was under her tenure, they noted, that the Madison Art Society brought recognition to artists along the shoreline and throughout the state in all painting mediums. Her years of service enhanced the lives of artists here and in surrounding communities.
The E. C. Scranton Memorial Library of Madison, Connecticut has been host to many shows and exhibitions over the years and the Madison Art Society has made a considerable contribution in money and publicity to benefit the library. In response the Scranton Library also acknowledged Beverly on her special day with a letter from the board. After the renovation project at the library the Society looks forward to being a part of the library's future.
The 250 members of the Madison Art Society gifted Beverly with a personalized wooden travel box for her pastels as she is often found outdoors along the shoreline creating her prize winning pastel art. Because flowers are one of her favorite subjects and because she has beautiful gardens on her property Beverly also received a garden rock with a quote inscribed on it from Vincent Van Gogh, "I am seeking, I am striving, I am in it with all my heart." The group felt this quote best described her dedication to the success of her art and the society during her years of leadership.
During her leadership she and the board have provided benefits for local artists and townspeople. Up to seven art demonstrations are held per year featuring professional artists and are very popular with the public often with 'standing room only' at these meetings held in various locations around the Town of Madison. Members and friends also enjoy outdoor painting that begins in May and continues weather permitting into the autumn months. A select number of members continue in the winter months with a winter studio where still life painting is done. A number of bus trips were enjoyed over the years to art museums in greater New England. The Society schedules a number of shows to acknowledge various levels of accomplishment in the art community including a juried show, an elected artist's show, a member show and a board of director's show. In addition Peoples Bank and other public venues give space for artist's work. This year in July the group held its 42nd annual outdoor exhibition and show on the Scranton library property adding additional money to the thousands of dollars given to the library over the past 12 years. Shoreline high school students also benefit from the Madison Art Society during juried shows each year with the Sponsor a Student Award of $250.00 given through the Shoreline Arts Alliance.
During Beverly's tenure she and the Board rewrote the bylaws to prepare a solid foundation for future growth. They became recognized with a 501(C)(3) tax exempt organization status, set up an auditing system, secured the dues paying process, added events and wrote a long term strategy plan and mission statement including qualifications for associate and elected artist status. So impressive was this accomplishment that many other art societies have adopted this plan to ensure solvency.
An important part of this strategy included member surveys to ensure everyone was on board with the changes. A future hope is that the Madison Art Society can have a permanent location where workshops, shows and professional demonstrations can take place for the benefit of the entire shoreline art community.
|Marge Casey and Beverly Schirmeier
At the board meeting on October 2nd Beverly Schirmeier will pass the baton to Marge Casey who will take the reins of the organization. She and Beverly have worked together for months to ensure a smooth transfer and uninterrupted success for the future. The members look forward to Marge's ideas as she enjoys leadership in the coming year.

What's all the hype about raw food?
I'm writing this for all of you out there who think they are defect. Defect for not wanting or able to digest raw food no matter how often they tried. If seen seen this time and time again. People change their diet from junk to raw food and suffer.
Really, it doesn't have to be that way. And NO there is nothing wrong with you.
Let me explain. If you have eaten junk food more or less your whole life you trained your gut or rather untrained your gut. Your intestines don't have a proper inner lining, miss the right bacteria and lack muscle.
You can substitute bacteria. Still, it takes time.
You want the changes to last, right? That's why I would suggest to go slow. I know it doesn't sound good and takes to long.
Give your whole system some time to adjust.
You might never be able to digest big amounts of raw food. That's ok. Just go with cooked foods and you will thrive.
Another thing that might sound a bit of woo woo: A diet change effects you on a body and on a soul level. Everything you eat has an energetic quality. Junk food, alcohol and meat act extremely grounding. On the other hand veggies make you light. You need to find your own balance that fits your needs as a whole. That's different for everyone. The more you open up the lighter you food becomes. It's all connected. That's why you easily fall off the wagon when you introduce dramatic changes to your body when your mind is not ready for it.

Teenage girls opted for new fun, and less formal wear. Women who had lived through the Great Depression and World War II were now able to afford new styles and embraced it all from the elegance of sweeping skirts to shorts and trousers. Post War World Two Pencil skirts, Poodle Skirts, and Trousers Women found comfort and flexibility in pants while working in factories during the war.

Our first stop is Crepe Myrtle Cafe for their mouth watering crepes. Crepe Myrtle is the perfect place to go to sit outside, relax, and have an amazing meal.I love this place not only because their food is great, but it is a local store that only uses local farmers ingredients. While you are waiting on your food you can shop in their local farmers market which has some of the lowest prices in town! Crepes are not just for dessert, here they are for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. My favorite savory crepe is the Tomato Lover, which is filled with fresh Roma Tomatoes, Spinach, Feta Cheese, and Balsamic Vinegar. I had the special crepe of the day and it was the exact same as the Tomato Lover except it had chicken and strawberries added to it and it was the best crepe I have ever had. Then once you finish your savory crepe be sure to check out some of the delicious dessert crepes. From the Nutella Crepe to the Sinful Strawberry there is no wrong choice in satisfying your sweet tooth. Next time you are in Auburn make sure you make a stop at Crepe Myrtle Cafe for some of the best local food you can get. You can see more about the restaurant and their menu by going here and don't forget to check out their specials of the day by going here. When you visit make sure to tell them my blog Journey`s With Jordan sent you and let me know how you visit went!

The anal genre has become amazingly competitive in the last couple of years ago with hugely popular sites and new ventures being released over that time.
And there's another potentially huge sites that has just been launched that could easily be the next big challenger. The site is called Holed and it has already captured some huge name stars, such as the above pictured Samantha Rone.
And to celebrate its launch, they are offering potential subscribers the chance to enjoy their site with a 33% discount. We think you should take them up on that before they change their mind!

Genesis 1:27-28 (NIV)
27So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.
28God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."
Adam and Eve were placed in the Garden of Eden, a place of beauty and peace. They were place there with a mission; to be fruitful and to multiply, to fill the earth and subdue it, that is, to be master over the fish and birds and all the animals.
Adam's children and their children's children were to live under God's rule. They will extend the boundaries of His garden, His Kingdom with kingdom values, to the rest of earth simply by their devotion to Him.
This was God's Original Commission through the first Adam at the time of Genesis and still is today through the last Adam, Jesus in the Great Commission to his disciples.
Matthew 28:18-20 (NIV)
18Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
The Original Commission at the Garden of Eden was never abandoned even after Adam sinned. When sin entered the world, creation has been infected by darkness; manifesting itself as diseases, sickness, poverty, natural disasters, afflicting spirits, demonic influences, etc.
However, in redeeming man at the cross, Jesus retrieved what man (in Adam) had given away. In the process, the Original Commission was fully realized in the resurrection and ascension of Jesus and we, the church as disciples of Christ Jesus, were restored to God's plan as a people made in His image to rule over creation and over darkness.
We do this by preaching the gospel of the Kingdom of God, by being fruitful in making disciples of all nations in all the four corners of the earth, subduing it by having the nations replace their earthly values with the Kingdom of God, kingdom values. This is done as prescribed in Matthew 28:19-20.
By fulfilling the Great Commission, we rule over creation but it is now focused on exposing and undoing the works of the evil one.
Matthew 10:7-8 (NIV)
7As you go, preach this message: 'The kingdom of heaven is near.'
8Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely
you have received, freely give.

For those of our readers who may not be familiar with Ieg Holdings Corp (OTCMKTS:IEGH), the company is engaged in the provision of online $5,000 and $10,000 unsecured consumer loans under the brand name, "Mr. Amazing Loans", which logged $960,000 in new consumer loans via its www.mramazingloans.com website from October to December.
While loans are currently providing the company's revenue stream, we are especially interested in IEG Holdings for its recent efforts to become involved with the extremely popular crypto space, integrating and updating its existing business to meet the challenge.
Ieg Holdings Corp (OTCMKTS:IEGH) is negotiating to purchase a gold project with gold metal in the ground and prospecting licenses. The company plans to utilize a gold resource to investigate creating, through Crypto, and a joint venture with Investment Evolution Corporation, also a wholly owned subsidiary of IEG Holdings, its own gold metal-backed crypto/blockchain currency, and potentially offer loans and accept loan repayments in its own crypto/blockchain currency.
Crypto has not begun material operations and is in the development planning stages to explore these crypto/blockchain opportunities in this time of changing technology. Prior to launching these plans, Crypto will investigate the legalities and economic risks and benefits of its plans. Any crypto currency offering will be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Paul Mathieson, IEG Holdings' Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Unlike Bitcoin, Ripple, Ethereum and Litecoin etc., IEGH's crypto currency is planned to be backed by gold metal and registered with the SEC as a security. We believe potentially combining the exciting new blockchain technology with the hard asset of gold metal, expected SEC registration, a leading sophisticated online consumer finance system and individual US state lending licenses is a very exciting proposition. In addition, we believe the future leaders of the crypto/blockchain sector will be companies that are materially compliant with all the existing and future related US government legislation. We aim for IEGH to leverage off its existing fintech business credentials, specifically its extensive experience in online consumer loans, to potentially be a key player in the crypto/blockchain sector."

IEG Holdings also recently incorporated a 100% owned subsidiary company named Investment Evolution Crypto, LLC. The subsidiary company will explore the legalities and economic risks and benefits of entering into a joint venture with IEGH's other 100% owned subsidiary company Investment Evolution Corporation dba Mr. Amazing Loans to accept repayment of customer loans in the form of leading Crypto/Blockchain currencies such as Bitcoin, provide the crypto equivalent of USD $5,000 and $10,000 loans to customers, and also potentially create and issue an Investment Evolution cryptocurrency. Investment Evolution Crypto has not begun operations and is in the development planning stages to explore these business opportunities in this time of changing technology. (Source: Marketwired)
We've reached a point where it seems inevitable that most, if not all companies will go forward into the future exploring ways to integrate the blockchain into their existing businesses, or even form few facets of business to rise to the occasion. IEGH is another one of those companies attempting to do so, and as such, we will be interested to track its activity ourselves on an ongoing basis. Keep it locked on Street Register for updates, and we'll deliver important developments on IEGH as they unfold. In the meantime, if you've yet to sign up for our 100% free newsletter, do so now!

Where To Start with Health and More
Dine Out in Healthy Style
If you are a health buff, dining out may cause you to be overly concerned or disappointed. You might end up eating more than you wish especially when servings are big. You might just end up eating all the calories you don't need, because you'll never know what goes into the food.
Don't worry too much and get stressed about these situations. Having healthy eating habits doesn't mean you need to exclude yourself and avoid going out with friends to dinner. There are ways you can stick to your diet plan, while dining out with your friends.
Check the menu in advance before deciding on a place. You will get a better idea of what food they serve if you look at their menu in advance. Some restaurants include calorie counts beside the dishes to guide healthy eaters who are conscious about their calorie intake – this is helpful. Others will have a section marked 'healthy' or 'light' while some have a heart symbol to indicate that this dish is good for the heart. These foods are probably not fried foods, or foods that don't include too much fatty ingredients such as cheese and cream.
At times, you don't know how a certain dish is prepared or what its ingredients are, but you can inquire from your server. You might want to know if a dish is fried or baked, or how much oil goes into it. You don't end up guessing how healthy a dish is because of the information you already know.
A side dish of potatoes or fries often goes along with your order. But if you order salad to replace the fries when you order, oftentimes your order gets accommodated. If you can't avoid the potatoes, just make sure you avoid the sour cream.
Restaurant will adjust to the request of their customers, especially if they ask politely. If a healthy-looking dish is rich in cream or cheese, you can ask yours to have none. Sometimes, it's better for you to request a separate dish for your sauces so you can choose how much to put. A separate saucer for your sauces is something you should always ask for, because you can't control how restaurants drench your greens with them.
Most of the time, starters and desserts can be done away with. Look for a starter with fresh looking ingredients, instead of a sweet dessert. A soup that is not cream-based would be a good option for you. But the best thing to have are salads, without the bacon or cheese.
If you will have wine, a glass is enough.

"How did you expect them to react? You blew their only kid's head clean off…by mistake. I think that's what really pissed them off was telling them that. Boy, sometimes I wonder how you managed to survive this long on the job? I really do."
Jacobs rounded on his partner, his expression twisted by emotions. "What the hell are you talking about? I came here to lay this to rest…give them…myself some closure. How, exactly, did I screw-up?"
Shaking his head from side to side, Rizzo grinned, "Wow, you really just don't get it, do you? Okay, let me break this down for you. Mr. and Mrs. Ortiz, KNOW you didn't shoot their son on purpose 'cause cops don't, as a general practice, just go around shooting 9-year-old boys. So, coming here to tell them it was an accident is pretty freakin' pointless. They know it was an accident…they don't care. They know you don't deserve to be punished for an accident…they don't care. They know you'll probably never see another kid running around playing without this all coming back up on you and you know what? They…don't…care."
"At the end of the day, what they do care about is this: their son is dead. He won't get to play football or go to prom or to college…ever. He won't get a job and a wife and a house and all that kinda stuff…ever. And you know why he won't get to do any of that stuff, partner? Oh, yeah…I remember now. It's because you pulled a rookie move and turned the kid's head into hamburger meat. Is it starting to make sense to you now?"
"So, what do they…do you…want from me, Rizzo?" Jacobs whisper was scarcely audible.
"What does the Ortiz family want? I have no clue what, if anything, will ever make this right with them. But, I'll tell you what I want. I want you to get in the car so we can drive to that burger joint off Sepulveda. It's BOGO Friday, remember? The world always looks better with a quart of grease coursing through your veins. I'll drive 'cause you look like shit, okay?"
They drove, in silence, for some time before Jacobs spoke, "I don't think I can do this anymore. I…I think it's time for me to pack it in. Didn't they always tell us, at the academy, we'd know when to call it quits?"
"Yep, they certainly did. So you wanna turn your stuff in before or after we eat? Personnel is probably closing up early anyway on Friday. Yeah, we'll eat first."
Seeing Jacobs stunned look from the corner of his eye, Rizzo sighed, "Look, I'm not gonna blow sunshine up your ass. If you're used up, you are. I'll miss you…maybe a little. But, yeah, I guess it's time too."
Unexpectedly, he turned the car around. "Y'know what? I'm not so hungry after all. If we hurry, we can still catch Personnel before they take off for the weekend."

Relocating to the area and absolutely LOVE this apartment and location. I will be working right off of Ramsey Street and am looking forward to my short commute!!
What a great deal and lovely apartment! You can't beat this for size and price! I love my attached garage and granite countertops!!!!!!
Quiet, not too big. Easy to find your way around. Great area for people to run and walk your dogs. Provides two doggie bag stations to curb your pets. The dog park is kinda small and lacking but this place is relatively new. More construction is beeing seen near the end of the main street. Lacks a bit more lighting on certain streets, but they will be fixing that soon. Controlled access is kinda sketchy right now because tenants have been damging the gate regularly. Over all its a nice place.
Joshua W.
My husband and I rented here when we moved from Anchorage, site-unseen. All the girls who work in the office and helped us (mainly me) through the process were awesome! They walked through the open units and took pictures for us of each of them, always returned my calls and e-mails promptly and we have an excellent leasing experience. Whenever we have maintenance issues, they are taken care of within 2 days or so, if it takes longer, they call us to let us know the ETA.

I love living here, and thank you for installing the gate. It has been a great addition. The only suggestion I would suggest: add a workout room with a few treadmills, and etc? That would be a fantastic addition!
Northridge Park Townhomes, reminiscent of Georgetown row houses, offer the cityscape appeal and front porches that invite the sense of community and the feeling of home.

Small Businesses Are Taking Tentative Steps Toward Online Networking
June 4, 2009 NyTimes
By MICKEY MEECE
BY choice or necessity, successful small-business owners are earnest networkers, gladly shaking hands, handing out cards and attending local meetings to find and keep customers, solve problems, seek feedback or support and bolster their bottom lines.
Now, the Internet is starting to upend those long-established methods; online networking on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and newer niche sites can be instantaneous and far-reaching.
The sites are efficient and free, which is especially important in an economic downturn, as owners scramble for new customers, said Rob King, vice president for strategic marketing at Sage North America, a unit of Sage P.L.C., a global supplier of business management software and services.

Today is my Daddy's birthday.
He loves spaghetti, peanut butter milkshakes, ice cream, spaghetti, cheese, haystacks, and spaghetti. He really, really loves spaghetti. He also loves taking pictures. Emily and I have hundreds of pictures for each year of our childhood, and that's no small feat considering he had to go out and buy the film and take it to a drugstore to have all those photos developed. He captured so much of our childhoods on film, which is awesome because my memory is pretty much blank before about age 8. He also loves music. He always played music in the house when we were growing up and he turns up the radio in his truck a couple notches every time a good song comes on. His favorites are 60s and 70s rock, bluegrass, accoustic guitar, folk, blues, southern rock and country (not the junk from the 90s and 2000s, but real music like The Allman Brothers Band and ALABAMA.) He used to play this song a lot, and if you don't have the GLAD acapella Christmas album, your holiday season is seriously lacking.
When he wasn't playing music, he was watching surgery shows, cop shows, crime shows, NASCAR races, baseball and football. My daddy flips channels like no one else I've ever known. Just when you finally start to get interested in that gruesome murder case, he'll switch to a guy with a gunshot wound, and when you beg him to go to ANYTHING else, he'll change to a NASCAR race. Then he falls asleep holding the remote and snores so loud that you can't hear anything anyway.
His favorite place to be is the beach. Well, the Carrabbas at the beach. We go to Myrtle Beach every year and Daddy always sleeps with the sliding doors open to hear the ocean, even when it's 40 degrees out. He is so, so smart and extremely hilarious, which are probably the two best things to be in the world. Everybody comments on his deep, distinctive voice and he always sings or whistles along to every song he recognizes, plus some he doesn't. He has some hilarious live-action dreams and occasionally talks, laughs, and (most often) fights in his sleep. He's been a fire equipment salesman, a 911 dispatcher, a fireman, a paramedic, a saftey coordinator for a chemical company, a fire academy instructor and now he's back to 911 dispatch. He takes great care of all of us and would do anything in the whole world to make us happy. He still takes out my splinters and bandages up my cuts and he teaches me things every day and I love him slap to pieces. Even if I told him so every minute of every day, it wouldn't be enough.
Dads are the best, right?

All over the fashion and beauty blogosphere, it rings out...
this year, fall is all about
Just as with spring, "they" have chosen to put forth colors I can embrace.
|Some of my purple for Fall!
Had "they" chosen chartreuse...well, I don't think so.
But red...and purple? Oh yeah. I can so-go-there!
I tend to get compliments when I wear deep reds. Purples on my eyes make my gray-blue eyes POP.
I tend to get compliments when I wear deep reds. Purples on my eyes make my gray-blue eyes POP.
I can do this.
But I did want to push things a touch. Step out of my comfort zone. Red polish on my toes - no biggie. But red on my lips? Believe it or not, that's not something I remember ever doing. EVER. I've tried a few reds and always felt like it was too much. Kind of like the lip equivalent of wearing a low cut blouse with a push up bra. "Hey everybody, look at these!"
Off to Ulta.
You know I love Ulta.
I love Sephora, too, but where I'm staying right now while my hubby works out of town, Ulta is about 12 minutes away, while Sephora is about 30. Plus I had a $3.50 of $10 coupon, AND they had the Lorac liner (review coming soon) on sale for LESS than 1/2 price! Honestly, in my experience, Sephora's beauty consultants are more knowledgeable. But, Ulta has better sales. But, I digress...
Back to my haul.
I try on red after red after red. After wiping off a LOT of red lipstick, your lips start to chap (which is NOT attractive), AND your face all around your mouth starts to look red, too. SO not attractive.
I finally settle on Stila's "Lover".
I get my Lorac liner, my Stila Lover and grab another bottle of Revlon Colorstay.
(**I will tell you right now that I do NOT love this formula like I do the "Oily/Combination" formula. Read my review HERE. It is too much for my skin. I wish I had waited and bought it elsewhere in the correct formula. Oh well. I'm gonna try to use it and make it work anyway. But I regret it. Rant over.**)
I put my "Lover" on the next day. I like it. It seems to make my gray-blue eyes stand out. But it still seems pinkish to me. That annoys me. I hope it grows on me.
So, about the lipstick:
|The blunt end is like a crayon's.
You need to have lips that are in good shape. Chapped lips are no good with this. Yuck.
It calls itself "Long Wear Lip Color - Creme". Long Wear? Yes. But not in the way most of us are used to. When I think long wear, I think "stays put, does not come off". NOT SO WITH THIS.
This stuff will come off on EVERYTHING. Coffee mug. Water bottle. Husband. Kids. Everything.
Even so, this lipstick will still be on YOU at the end of the day, amazingly. I never reapplied, yet I ate a couple of times, drank plenty, etc., and my lips still looked like this right before I washed off my makeup at the end of the night:
I don't know how it can stay on me so well, yet get off onto everything else so much. Is it ironic? Oxymoronic? Hmmmm. It's the lipstick that just keeps on giving...yet staying?
This lipstick FEELS okay. It's not drying, nor is it moisturizing. It's just...well...there.
|After all day wear, including eating/drinking...no reapplication. Seriously.
This lipstick FEELS okay. It's not drying, nor is it moisturizing. It's just...well...there.
I know now, without a doubt, this girl prefers lip stains with glosses on top. Or just colorful glosses. That's just how I roll. Lipstick is not so much me. But I bought it, so I'm gonna wear it. Period.
What do you think? Do you wear true reds? Do you feel comfortable with them or do you feel like your lips are too "front and center"?
Are you gonna embrace RED and PURPLE this Fall?
Comment away!

I have people coming to me all the time seeking change. Ask a room full of people, "who wants to change", and you'll get a show of hands. Ask, "who is willing to change, and do the hard work?", and well...
Change is hard, period. If it were easy we'd all be happy, healthy, etc. Change requires integration. Integration of our past, which sometimes includes unhealthy beliefs, behaviors and emotions. Integration of our soul with our body, emotions and mind.
What does that mean, integration with our body. We're here. We're alive. What is there to integrate? What does integration even mean? I believe each one of us came here with a purpose, and to fulfill that purpose we have to remember who we are, and to remember who we are we have to forget what we've been told!
Regardless of what level you're dealing with, what issue you are working on, it all takes time, patience, acceptance, and kindness. Whatever change you make, however small, will make a difference in every other aspect of your life...so that's cool.
So. I want to send a shout out to all of you, regardless of what you're going through, what "change" you're making, what your beliefs are.
Love to you...Be kind to yourself, and enjoy the journey.

King Charles Spaniel Seattle
Dog Jaunt is for people who want to take their dog along with them, on trips of any length. Sometimes, of course, you absolutely can't bring your dog with you: your workplace forbids dogs, or you're visiting a country with grim quarantine laws, or you happen to know that the Met searches visitors' bags and all will be revealed once the zipper of your tote opens. I write about those other times, when you can bring your dog with you but you hesitate because of the trouble it will entail. You love your dog! She hates being left behind! You hate leaving her! Now you don't have to, because I'll tell you about great dog-friendly places I've found (and how to find more yourself), and I'll share with you what I've learned about getting there and back safely and comfortably (even if "there" is just around town on an errand run).
Please note that this blog is directed primarily at owners of small dogs, meaning a dog small enough to fit in a carrier under the airplane seat in front of you. Our dog is that size, and that's what I know most about. Some of the posts, though, will be useful and relevant to bigger dogs.
Please also note that I nearly always refer to a dog as "she" or "her." I don't mean to offend or exclude your male dog — it's just that I have a female dog, so for me all dogs are female until proven otherwise.
About me
My name is Mary-Alice Pomputius and I live with my husband, four cats, two chickens and a dog in Seattle. Our dog, Chloe, is a young Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, and we love her dearly. We added a dog to the menagerie because we also love our cats dearly, but they decline to travel with us. We travel often, in the U.S. and abroad, and on nearly every trip we found ourselves wishing that our feet-up time included a snoozing pet. I also spend a lot of time driving, and liked the idea of having a dog along for the ride. We chose a Cavalier because they are the right size (we wanted a dog small enough to fit in a carrier under an airline seat or in an over-the-shoulder tote) and the right temperament for us.

A sprinter friend of mine was looking for an edge to up her speed and improve her performance. When I suggest Pilates at first she look at me like I had two heads.
She already did loads of abdominal work, which is typical for any sprinter. I explained that Pilates was a whole 'nother animal when it came to abdominal and core training.
Time after time I have seen everyday people right up to elite athletes try Pilates and every time each and every person is shocked at the experience. The usual response is that they have never used their core like that before.
My buddy's sprint time improve within only a couple of months of using Pilates as part of her workout plan. She said she had never felt so strong in her abs and glutes before.
She had become a Pilates lover for life.
What Is Pilates Really?
Pilates is a series of movements designed to develop maximum muscle strength while at the same time increasing your flexibility. The movements are meant to realign your muscles to improve coordination, gracefulness, and power.
Check out my interview with Pilates guru Sylvia Favela
How Will Pilates Help Me Get Great Legs?
A core part of the Great Legs program is sprinting because sprinting allows you to maximally work all the muscles of the legs, hips, and yes the core. The muscles all work to get integrally to sprint.
If you want to learn more on some sprinting drills, then please click here.
Have you have seen a sprinter without a flat tummy? Heck have you ever seen a sprinter without a serious six-pack? No you haven't and why? Because you need an incredibly strong core in order to sprint.
If It's Good Enough For Them…
You wouldn't think athletes that play in such an aggressive sport as top level American football wouldn't be the sort to do Pilates, but even NFL teams use it as part of their fitness program.
Now you likely don't want to look like an NFL athlete, but there is still something to learn from everyone….Pilates helps athletes become faster. "So what?" you say…
The bottom line is that as you learn to sprint faster and with good form you will look better than you ever thought possible. You need a strong core to sprint well. Pilates can give you a great core.
So whether you're a celebrity who wants to look her best like Kate Hudson or an athlete who wants to run faster or you're just someone who wants to look amazing and have perfect posture check out more about Pilates with my friend Sylvia Favela.

For the entire bulletin with pictures, please click the following link:Bulletin for Sunday August 22, 2010
Pastor's Corner. . . Friday, August 27th is the Feast of Saint Monica, and Saturday, August 28th the Feast of her son, Saint Augustine. Both saints influenced the future life and faith of the Church founded by Christ because of their deep faith. Monica, a Catholic from birth, developed a strong faith and love for the Church that strengthened her through the difficult years of a difficult, violent marriage, and years of prayer, tears and fasting for her wayward son Saint Augustine. Late to the faith, Augustine spent his early life well into manhood faltering his ego. Sexual promiscuity, the chasing after false gods and counterfeit species of Christianity, permitted him to follow a self-oriented, self-absorbed life, convinced all the while that he, the brilliant young scholar, was the touchstone of truth. As such, he could accept only that religion which he judged correct, which permitted him to continue his immoral life, satisfied by flattery his ego, while making no claims on conversion or change of personal life. Monica's persistent prayers, the stellar intellect and holiness of Saint Ambrose, bishop of Milan, and the overpowering movement of the Holy Spirit, ultimately wore Augustine down, until he could finally submit his immense ego to the True God; "Late have I loved thee," he would write in his Confessions, "late have I loved Thee, Beauty, ever ancient, ever new. You were within me and I was outside. I sought you there, and in my ugliness rushed about among the beautiful created things you had made. You were with me; but I was not with you. Your creatures kept me far from you, though if they were not in you, they would not exist at all. You called and shouted and broke through my deafness. You shone radiantly and dispelled my darkness. You spread your fragrance, and I drew breath and kept sighing for you. I tasted, and remain, hungry and thirsty. You touched me, and I have been set aflame in your peace."
Five days before her death in 387 a.d. at the port town of Ostia near Rome, as she and Augustine awaited a ship to carry them home to North Africa, mother and son "were conversing, recalling past events, musing about the truth which You are, and wondering what the eternal life of the saints might be like," as Augustine later recalled. He also recorded one of Saint Monica's last statements: "Son, nothing delights me any longer in this life. I do not know why I am here or what more I am to do here, since I have no hopes left to be fulfilled on earth. There was only one reason why I wanted to remain alive: to see you a Catholic before I died. God has granted me the favor of seeing you put aside worldly pleasures and become his servant. So what is left for me?"
How different are our lives from those of the saints and fathers of the Church? Not very different. We are the same people, just separated by time and place. Yet, in Christ, that time and space are cut clean through. We should all study more about the early saints of the Church, in order to discover that we hold the same faith, receive the same sacraments, and belong to the same Catholic and Apostolic Church. Try to deepen your faith.
This is the seventh season for the parish's Saint Monica Institute for Patristic Studies here at Saint John's. A group of parishioners meets each Wednesday at 7:30 pm in the Rectory to read the theological and spiritual works of the Catholic men and women of the first few centuries of the Church. We do, in an infinitely less messy fashion, that which Augustine and Monica did: search for answers about God and the mystery of man's destiny in the writings of the Church's holy men and women of the first few centuries. Questions essential to everyday life are asked, such as, how does one encounter Christ, the Son of God, who suffered under Pontius Pilate, died, and rose in the flesh from the dead? What is one's response to God's intervention into human history, in order to save you from death? The asking of the question itself pushes one towards the answer, just as in the lives of Monica and Augustine and so many millions of others through the centuries, led by Christ, Himself.
No theological expertise is required; neither is knowledge of Greek or Latin, since all our readings are in English. These are informal groups, in which no one is urged to speak unless they decide to do so. We follow a simple methodology: a brief overview of the times, lives and thoughts of each saint whose work we read; the reading of the texts; discussion.
Our next meeting is on Wednesday, September 8th, at 7:30 pm in the rectory. The topic will be The Rule of St. Basil. No cost, no obligations. Please join us and read more by the saints of the early Church, and see how similar your lives are to theirs; how similar the questions, and, most important, how similar your Catholic faith. — Msgr. DiGiovanni

St. John's in The Advocate:
100 years ago, or so:
August 26, 1908: CATHOLIC CHURCH ON WHEELS. "In a short time Connecticut may have a new church. If it comes it will not be built in any city, for the good reason that it is already built, and will be a visitor. It goes around visiting, as it goes on wheels. It travels all over the country, propagating the Roman Catholic religion. It is known as St. Anthony's chapel, and is a Pullman car, fully fitted with an altar, organ, pews, and priest's apartment. It is now in New York State, but will shortly come into New England. Springfield is to have a visit, sure, and Hartford, Holyoke and Worcester are receptive in mood. Like the Baptist cars, it is intended for pioneer sections, but as it is the property of the Catholic Extension Society, and, as that society has a warm place in the hearts of the faithful, it is considered a good idea to give others than the frontier people a sight of the chapel, so as to intensity that interest."
75 years ago, or so:
August 28, 1933: St. John's Church Crowded for Papal Blessing from Young Priest. "The Rev. Joseph B. Daly, son of Mr. and Mrs. Owen J. Daly, of 29 Fifth Street, celebrated his first Solemn High Mass at St. John's R. C. Church yesterday morning at 11. The church was crowded. In the afternoon and evening, friends flocked to his home to give their well-wishes. Father Daly is a priest of the Carmelite Order. He studied in Rome, and before his departure, received the special privilege of giving the Papal blessing. This provided a solemn touch to a notable occasion. Rt. Rev. Monsignor Peter H. McClean of St. Augustine's Church, Bridgeport, a cousin of the celebrant, and the Rev. Michael Harding, O.S.M., of St. Bonaventure College, Allegany, N.Y., another cousin acted a assistant priests during the Mass. The Rev. Walter Daly, Order of Carmelite, was deacon, and the Rev. William Daly, also of the Order of Carmelite, was sub-deacon. They are both Stamford natives."
August 25, 1933: Rev. W.H. Flynn Is Elevated from Papal Chamberlain to Domestic Prelate. "In recognition of his services in behalf of the Hartford diocese and the Catholic priesthood, the Very Rev. Monsignor William H. Flynn, chancellor of the diocese and pastor of St. Patrick's Church, has been elevated from his present rank of Papal Chamberlain to that of Domestic Prelate by His Holiness Pope Pius XI, according to The Catholic Transcript. Besides receiving the title of "Right Reverend" it entitles the Monsignor to numerous privileges and dignities attached to the new office. Monsignor Flynn served a year as curate at St. John's, here, when first ordained."
The Interior Law of Charity – Fr. Terry Walsh
"For God is not a God of confusion but a God of Peace"(1Cor14:33)
Before God created anything, He existed. He has revealed the very nature of His Being as Triune; that is, He always existed as Holy Trinity – Three distinct Persons yet One God. The Holy Trinity is the greatest Mystery of our faith and we can only know of this great truth God because He has revealed it to us. He always existed as a perfect community of Three distinct and yet not separate Persons. He always existed as a perfect family overflowing in love. Indeed, John tells us that "God IS love." He created the Universe and everything in it through love. St. Paul teaches us that 'we live and move and have our being' in God; in other words, we are held in existence IN the love of God. The Church teaches us that the very purpose of our existence is to be "caught up in the love of the Holy Trinity for all eternity" in Heaven. When God created the Universe and everything in it He created it with perfect beauty, harmony, justice and order. It is called "Original Justice." The sin of Adam, the disobedience of man, caused disharmony, injustice or "Original Sin." Now, while the beauty and harmony of the Universe was effected by the disruption brought about by sin, Truth itself remains Perfect. Truth is not a thing; nor can it "change". Truth is a Person: Jesus Christ, "the same yesterday, today, and forever." He is Perfect and what is Perfect can not change. There is an objective Truth by which our lives and our very salvation are governed. We are able to know and understand Truth because God has "written it upon our hearts" and speaks it to us in the very depths of our souls (our conscience). We will grow in our understanding of Truth provided we are listening to His Voice. God wants all people to come to the knowledge of the Truth and choose to live in the Truth and so be saved. St. Paul encourages us to be attentive in our spiritual journey in this life: "Be watchful, stand firm in your faith, be courageous, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love"(1Cor16:13). Again, in his Letter to the Ephesians: "…he may grant you to be strengthened with might through his Spirit in the inner man, and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you be rooted and grounded in love…to know the love of Christ which surpasses all knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God". And so, there is a relationship between Law and Grace. The Law flows from Truth, Jesus Christ, and so points us toward Him. The Law is a "guidepost" to keep us on the well-lit path to our salvation. The Church teaches: "Called to beatitude but wounded by sin, man stands in need of salvation from God. Divine help comes to him in Christ through the law that guides him and the grace that sustains him"(ccc1949). The Catechism beautifully explains the various expressions of Law in Part 3, chapter 3, beginning with article #1949. It is clear, concise, and very helpful in understanding the relationship between Law and Grace. The Incarnation, the New Covenant, ushered in the New Law: the Law of Divine Grace. The Church explains: "The New Law or the Law of the Gospel is the perfection here on earth of the divine law, natural and revealed. It is the work of Christ and is expressed particularly in the Sermon on the Mount. It is also the work of the Holy Spirit and through him it becomes the interior law of charity: 'I will establish a New Covenant with the house of Israel…I will put my laws into their minds, and write them on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people'(Heb8:8, Jer31: 31-34)"(ccc1965).
