How to Dress for Graduation
While most of you are busy studying for finals and gearing up for summer vacation, some of you have something else on the horizon -- GRADUATION!
While graduating college is exciting and a relief in some ways, it can also be a scary time in a girl's life. Sure, you won't miss the stress of exams, papers, and their associated all-nighters, but leaving the home and friends you've grown to love over the past 4 or 5 years is certainly bittersweet. Commencement is the main event of the month, and you'll want to make sure you look AND feel your best during this exciting time -- and CF is here to help!
About to graduate, and want to be completely prepared for the big day? Read on to learn what to wear to graduation!
Tips on What to Wear to Graduation:
Dress to impress.
You'll be taking a ton -- and I mean dozens and dozens -- of photos. Today is not the day to sleep in and forget to shower. Pick out something conservative but still sassy to wear. You'll want to look like the mature adult you're about to become, but still look great and age-appropriate. Take the extra time to straighten or curl your hair, throw on a little concealer, and put your best face forward. Trust me -- you'll be thankful you did once those photos hit Facebook (or, are framed and placed over the fireplace at your parents' house!).
Plan what to wear under your robe.
Some people assume that what they wear on graduation doesn't matter because it will be covered up by a bulky robe. I completely disagree -- wearing something great underneath your robe is important for several reasons:
- First of all, you might not have time to change between the ceremony and dinner with your extended family, your best friend's graduation rager, or your last night on the town with your best friends. You'll want to have something on that's cute and stylish so you can leave college with a bang.
- Secondly, I have one tip for you all that I wish someone had told me a year ago when I graduated -- wear a dress with pockets! Carrying a purse --even a cross-body bag -- will look really strange while marching down the procession with 500+ of your classmates. Leave your wallet and such in your car (or with your parents if possible) and only keep your keys, phone, and a camera with you.
- Also, it's important to wear something somewhat sleek. A graduation robe will add enough bulk on its own, so a really full skirt will look strange under it. If a skin-tight bandage dress just isn't your thing, look for relaxed-cute items that will be comfortable but not add any extra volume.
- Lastly, check the weather. Nothing will cramp your style quite like freezing (or burning up) while you're trying to listen to a graduation speech.
Cute dresses for graduation:
Products L-R: Red Crochet Dress - Revolve, Lace Halter Dress - Nordstrom, Off-Shoulder Dress - Nordstrom, Black Dress - Revolve
Here are some cute options for graduation -- none are crazy short or revealing and all of them are super pretty and practical. The black dress includes pockets, as well. If you want more graduation dresses, see our post on cute graduation dresses for every budget!
Consider footwear.
The only part of your outfit that people will be able to see is your shoes, so wear a cute, somewhat dressy pair, and be sure to paint your toenails, too! Sexy, sky-high stilettos might be a little inappropriate, but the occasion calls for something fancier than a pair of sandals or ballet flats.
I would recommend a pair of wedges or 2-3 inch heels -- this way, you'll look great but still be able to walk the long distance they'll probably have you march. Be sure to break in your shoes and practice walking in them before the date arrives - the last thing you'd want to do is fall down or be uncomfortable during Commencement!
Cute shoes for graduation:
Products: Pumps - Sam Edelman, Cream Espadrilles - Castaner, Brown Espadrilles - Steve Madden, Black Wedges - Jessica Simpson
Step up your makeup.
Now is definitely not the day to experiment with new looks, but it's not a bad idea to wear eyeliner, mascara, blush, and lipstick if you're comfortable with it. This way, you'll look great in the far-away pictures your parents will take from the audience!
For ideas on makeup for graduation, see our list of college makeup essentials. You can't go wrong with something classic and pretty.
Have some fun!
Small pranks -- like decorating your graduation cap (see our favorite graduation cap ideas for more!) or writing your fictitious Facebook middle name on the card you give to the announcer before walking across stage -- can be a fun way to personalize your experience. Of course, this all depends on what kind of school you go to and what kind of rules have been laid out. Be sure to keep it very subtle though; don't be the girl that brings a blow-up beach ball or blowhorn to the fancy event!
Graduation Outfit Idea
Products: Dress - Macy's, Necklace - Zappos, Lipstick - Kylie Cosmetics, Bracelet - Alex + Ani, Ring - Kohl's, Shoes - Steve Madden, Nail Polish - Essie
An outfit like this would be absolutely perfect to wear during commencement. This silky sheath dress is lightweight and won't look bulky under your robe, but will still look great for any activity you'll attend after the ceremony (plus, it has pockets!). Wedges like these will look great with your robe, but are easier to walk in and a little more dressy than spiky stilettos.
Soft, wavy hair will look amazing flowing out from underneath that funny looking graduation cap, and a medium pink lip color will flatter any skin tone. Finish with simple jewelry -- be careful with earrings due to your cap, but you can't go wrong with an elegant ring and graduation-themed bracelet. This quirky necklace can easily be tucked underneath your graduation robe during the ceremony, but it's a super cute and not-so-serious accessory for afterwards.

Glenmorangie Launch for Pride 1978 and Unveiling of Idris Khan's 'Disappearing Casks'
Making Scotch an Art Form in More Ways Than One
There were two premieres at the Academy Mansion on 63rd Street earlier this week: Artist Idris Khan unveiled "Disappearing Casks," a photographic print of swirling chalk marks. The work was commissioned by Glenmorangie Single Malt Whisky, which simultaneously launched Pride 1978, a 34-year-old release.
Both works are pricey: Mr. Khan has made six other pieces in the series, each at $90,000, and Glenmorangie has made 700 bottles of Pride 1978, which will retail at $5,800....

Thank you for the wisdom @FASD_Mum!
By @FASD_Mum
Ho Ho Oh Boy – it's Christmastime. Again.
For those in the greater FASD community who celebrate Christmas this time of year is challenging. Feeling more like Scrooge than we care to admit, we jump out of bed each morning with an eye toward Christmases Past, Present & Future.
Christmas Past
We have suffered the defeat of Christmases past – when time and again expectations have been dashed by the hard realities of life for a child with FASD. Flashing lights. Sparkly tinsel. Spinning decorations. Dropping pine needles. Anticipation. Confusion. Disbelief. Unbearable excitement. Inevitable disappointment.
Ten Christmas truths as we have come to know them from Christmases Past:
- Not all kids can handle the idea of a big man dressed in red coming down imaginary chimneys.
- Some can handle even less the idea that it might not happen.
- Santa's naughty or nice list can cause great anxiety for…

Note: The following is an excerpt from this week'sEarnings Trends report. You can access the full report that contains detailed historical actual and estimates for the current and following periods, please click here>>>
Here are the key points:
• The takeaways from the Q4 earnings season include a very strong revenue momentum, an above-average proportion of positive surprises and an unusually positive revisions trend for the current and coming quarters.
• Total Q4 earnings for the 185 S&P 500 members that have reported results are up +13.3% from the same period last year on +8.2% higher revenues, with 82.2% beating EPS estimates and 80% beating revenue estimates.
• This is materially better performance relative to what we have been seeing from the same group of companies in other recent periods.
• As expected, companies are announcing big one-time charges related to the tax law change, which is making the gap between adjusted operating earnings and GAAP earnings the highest in recent years.
• For Q4 as a whole, total earnings for the S&P 500 index are expected to be up +11.9% from the same period last year on +7.6% higher revenues. Earnings growth is expected to be positive for 14 of the 16 Zacks sectors, with double-digit growth for the Energy, Technology, Aerospace, Construction, Industrial Products, Basic Materials and Autos sectors.
• Q4 earnings growth for the Energy sector is the highest of all sectors, with total earnings for the sector expected to be up +185.1% from the same period last year on +25.2% higher revenues. Excluding the Energy sector, total Q4 earnings for the rest of the S&P 500 index would be up +9.2%.
• Earnings growth is expected to be strong for the Technology sector, with total Q4 earnings for the sector expected to be up +17.4% on +9.5% higher revenues. Finance sector earnings are expected to be up +5.4% on +2.6% year-over-year growth in revenues.
• For the small-cap S&P 600 index, we now have Q4 results from only 18.3% of its members, with earnings up +6.1% on +10.7% higher revenues and the proportion of positive EPS and revenue surprises at 64.5% and 64.5%, respectively. Please check page 26 through 33 of the full report for more details on the small-cap index.
• Earnings estimates for the current period (2018 Q1) and following quarters have been going up in a notable way, with tax law changes as the most notable reason for the positive revisions. The positive revisions are broad-based and not restricted to the Energy sector, with estimates for 15 of the 16 Zacks sectors up since over the last few weeks.
• For full-year 2017, total earnings for the S&P 500 index are expected to be up +7.5% on +4.8% higher revenues, which would follow +0.7% earnings growth on +2.6% higher revenues in 2016. Index earnings are expected to be up +17.9% in 2018 and +9.5% in 2019.
Q4 Scorecard (as of January 31, 2018)
We now have Q4 results from 185 S&P 500 members that combined account for 41.2% of the index's total market capitalization. Total earnings for these 185 index members are up +13.3% from the same period last year on +8.2% higher revenues, with 82.2% beating EPS estimates and 80% beating revenue estimates.
The comparison charts below compare the results thus far with what we have seen from the same group of 185 index members in other recent periods.
The Q4 earnings and revenue growth pace for these 185 companies is notably tracking above what we had seen from the same group of companies in other recent periods. The proportion of positive EPS and revenue surprises is similarly significantly above other recent periods for this group of index members.
Here are the four key trends emerging out of the Q4 earnings season
First, there is clear momentum on the revenue front, with both the growth pace as well as the proportion of positive top-line surprises tracking above historical periods. The comparison charts below compare top-line performance for the 185 index members that have reported results already.
Second, an above-average proportion of companies are beating EPS and revenue estimates. The chart below compares the proportion of companies beating both EPS and revenue estimates in Q4 and other recent periods.
A high proportion of positive surprises is typically not a big deal given management teams' expertise in anchoring expectations at easy-to-beat levels. We typically see this show in lowered estimates ahead of the start of earnings seasons. But what makes this above-average proportion of positive surprises notable is the fact that estimates for Q4 had held up very nicely ahead of this earnings season.
Third, the gap between adjusted operating earnings and GAAP earnings is extremely high, as the comparison chart below shows.
The all-around one-time charges this earnings season pertain to the accounting impact of tax-law changes, which we are stripping out of our (adjusted) earnings numbers for comparability reasons. The chart above shows that adjusted earnings have historically been 8% to 13% higher than GAAP earnings for the 185 index members that have reported results already, but they are an extremely high 63% higher in Q4.
The issue is widespread and not restricted to one sector. For example, Citigroup (C - Free Report) reported adjusted earnings of $3.38 billion while its GAAP earnings were a loss of $18.3 billion. Caterpillar's (CAT - Free Report) adjusted earnings for the quarter of $1.29 billion compare to its GAAP loss of $1.3 billion. Apple's (AAPL - Free Report) foreign cash hoard is bigger than any other company, which means its one-time charge will surpass what we saw from Citigroup earlier in this reporting season.
There is no question that these are one time and non-cash charges. But the wide gap between adjusted and GAAP earnings this earnings season is nevertheless an unflattering comment on the 'quality' of the earnings performance.
Fourth, is the unusually positive revisions trend for the current and following quarters. The chart below shows how 2018 Q1 earnings growth expectations have evolved since early December. This is a sight that we haven't seen in a very long time; definitely not over the last 6 years.
The most important factor driving this positive revisions trend is the tax cuts. The rise in oil prices and the impact of uptrend bond yields on banks' profitability are some of the other factors.
Estimates have gone up across the board for 15 of the 16 Zacks sectors, with the Conglomerates sector as the only to have suffered modest negative revisions, primarily a reflection of the never-ending General Electric (GE - Free Report) saga. Estimates have gone up the most, in dollar terms, at the Finance sector, followed by Energy, Technology, Medical and the others.
Expectations Beyond Q4
The chart below contrasts the Q4 earnings growth rate with what was actually achieved in the last 5 quarters and what is expected in the coming four periods.
Stepping back from the quarterly picture and looking at the growth trajectory on an annual basis, earnings growth resumed in 2017 after flat-lining in the preceding two years, with total S&P 500 earnings on track to increase +7.5% in 2017 on +4.8% higher revenues.

Only people who understand parrots are wild animals and can commit to meeting their demanding needs should consider providing a home for them. Only then we will see a decrease in the pet market's demand for "impulse purchased" baby parrots, only then will the homeless bird epidemic become a thing of the past, only then will all parrots in captivity be properly cared for and appreciated for the wild animals they are.

Quentin Davies defects to LabourQuentin Davies, MP for Margaret Thatcher's hometown of Grantham and Stamford, has defected to the Labour party. More on the BBC News website. In a letter to Dave Cameron, Davies said that the Conservative party "appears to me to have ceased collectively to believe in anything, or to stand for anything".
Davies isn't massively high-profile, but can't be dismissed as a back-bencher: he was shadow Minister for Pensions 1998-99, shadow Paymaster General 1999-2000, shadow Minister for Defence 2000-01 and shadow Secretary of State for Northern Ireland 2001-03. He was First Secretary in the FCO after being Second Secretary in Moscow.
Iain Dale has been complaining about low coverage of the Conservatives - this should help!

Love. Laugh. Learn. A fun journey with Little Ones. A beautiful life with Loved Ones. A crafty mind to inspire my Young Ones.

2012 Flashback. 回顾2012
Hello 2013.
It's finally 2013, happy new year to everyone!
This blog is really young, only 4.5 months old. I started it with the intention to share the fun and creative activities with my little ones, with the little hope that someone may find it useful, and at the same time I have a diary of the important milestones on my kiddos' development.
Somehow, it manifested to more than that. It's now a mixture of the fun activities with my duo, and online collection of my craft and design work for my loved ones. Looking back, I have achieved quite a fair bit within such a short time frame. *a pat on my own shoulder*
Here are the photo collage of what I've done.
Handmade for my Little Ones
More Mommy-brand Toddler Wear
Handmade Toys and Home Improvement projects
More Soft Toys and Accessories
Not to bad for a newbie I guess. :)
I look forward for more years of joy and purposeful life with my little ones, and it's and honor to have you staying on with us along this journey.
Once again, happy new year and may the Lord bless you and your loved ones abundantly.

A list of 86 tracks have been announced for the Opening Ceremony playlist. As you can imagine, this has got music lovers' tongues wagging as people debate which tracks they would have included. The list includes God Save the Queen by the Sex Pistols, the Eastenders theme tune, Wonderwall by Oasis, Dambusters, Adele's Rolling in the Deep and Underworld's Born Slippy, to name a few.
Last week, Danny Boyle gave a press conference releasing details of his vision for the opening moments of the ceremony. It will be an 'anarchic pastoral scene' with real animals, depicting England as a green and pleasant land. He says he will be try to capture the humanity and warmth of Sydney 2000's ceremony using wit and inventiveness, rather than sheer expense as was the case in Beijing.
Just don't mention plans to add a new airport to London's next-to-bursting sprawl or the HS2 high-speed rail link destined to cut across precious greenbelt land as it connects London to Birmingham. (They're already linked). I joke, but actually, judging Danny Boyle and his Musical Directors Underworld at this stage would be like hopping in a time machine and telling Van Gogh his sketches of some sunflowers were a bit ropey. Either way, on the night of 27th July, I'm sure Danny Boyle will be added to the Queen's New Year's Honours List. Arise Sir Danny!

Urine-spouting Hermes wannabe.
February 21, 2011
The cool white colors dominate the courtyard I am having lunch in with my friend, Brandon. The cobblestone floor is slightly worn, like the walls, with bits of moss growing on the cracks. The sky is clear overhead and piercing blue. A chill goes up my spine, as it is early spring and the shade is far cooler than I would like. I look out at the chairs in the sunlight and tell Brandon we are moving to that area but before we rise, a skinny, dark skinned boy with white patterns on his skin appears, standing on the tips of his toes, small wings beating furiously at his ankles. He has no hair and no muscle definition; eyes colored red and glowing bright as fire.
Smoke appears over the walls off in the distance and gunfire cuts through the relative quiet in the courtyard. This South American town is in utter upheaval and revolution. The boy moves his arms and hands in an erratic fashion, causing his cheeks to puff out. He stands on one foot and leans forward, his arms spread out and spits a watered down yellow fluid at me as if he were a fountain. It hits me directly in the chest and from the smell of it, I guess it is urine. Furious, I rise from my chair and run at the lad and he snaps into a fighting position and jumps at me, feet first. Performing some kind of Brazilian martial arts in slow motion, he knocks me off my feet and I crash into the stone wall behind me, my neck emitting a loud "crack" upon impact. I become nervous, not sure how to beat him since I do not know martial arts. Not deterred enough, I run at him a second time and land a solid punch on his left eye but he spins around and throws me back into that same wall. He takes up the fountain pose and spews more fluid from his mouth and it hits me in the face this time, burning my eyes, making it hard to go after him. I scream at him furiously, causing the stream coming from his mouth to become thicker; less like urine, and more like a citrus smelling fluid.
Everything stops for a brief moment–no sounds can be heard, nothing moves, everything is frozen in time. When "time" resumes, he heaves as if about to throw up and his ankle wings beat at full speed, creating a high pitched humming sound, lifting him off a few inches from the ground. An old man hobbles into the courtyard, unnoticed by this quasi-Hermes creature, and whispers to me to be still and raise my arms up and out if I want to save myself and banish the evil spirits in the boy attacking me. I follow his instructions and the winged boy drops back to his feet. He runs at me again but fails in his attempted attack. He tries repeatedly to assault me but I keep my arms out and refrain from saying anything, staying calm as possible. After what feels like almost an hour, the boy refrains from attacking me and instead paces back & forth impatiently. A deep "crack" echoes up from the ground in the distance and he snaps his head to attention. He smiles, holding his hand out to me, palm facing the sky and snaps his fingers, causing a flame the size of a grapefruit to appear in his palm. Everything goes black.
I woke up.
Meanwhile, back in Africa…
November 26, 2010
I had a strange dream last night:
Impressive in their size and not built to excess, cream-colored pillars decorate the torch-lit walkway I find myself walking down. I look up at the sky and the moon is full and bright, muting the glow of the stars closest to it. I turn right to an unimpressive & bland gated area, and realizing I don't have the access required to pass through them, I turn around and am greeted by a smiling, dark-skinned lad. He signals for me to follow him to the end of the walkway; we stop at a large double gate and he slides the key into the lock and opens it for me, inviting me to walk through.
As soon as both of my feet are on the opposite side of the gate, as if in a literal blink of an eye, my surroundings change and I am in what looks like the wilderness of Africa. I hear a loud pop followed by a small explosion and a slight shimmer in the distance catches my eye, like it is winking at me. I take three steps in it's direction and am next to it. At a closer look, it has tiny grooves of similar pattern at the base and tip and is emitting a low humming noise. I reach out to touch it but before I can wrap my hand around it, the screaming of children assaults my ears. Coming at me is a platoon of African child soldiers, guns firing and grenades exploding a few feet in front of me. In such circumstances I would usually raise my arms and roar/go akimbo and bang some pots and pans together to scare them off but I was caught quite off guard this time. And I was in Africa for some reason. Naturally I did not have my usual composure about me.
They all stopped moving and firing within a few feet of me and lined up. They parted a gap in the middle of the line and a slightly taller young fellow passed them and slowly approached me. Within arms reach, his eyes turned jet black (eerily like the demonic senior from last night's dream) and his teeth sharpened right before my eyes. He snickered and continued toward me. I whipped out a small, ornate sawed off shotgun and fired off a round at his chest. He stumbled back, stunned a bit but shook it off and continued toward me. We went through this for what seemed too long of a time and each time he became more persistent than the last. I felt a magnetic sensation around my head and eyes, which I was sure was coming from him trying to hold my gaze (a fancy way of trying to put me in a staring contest against my will). The shells would slam into his body and face but he was not wounded by them, only forced back. Eventually I began to wonder what I would do once I ran out of ammo or became bored with the repetition of this possible stalemate of good vs. evil in the desert (could this represent a possible move toward amoralism within myself?? Ooooo, deep!).
I hear the rushing of wind above me and looking up, see a floorless hangar/warehouse type building coming right at me. The child in front of me snarls his lip and turns his back to me right as the building lands around me (thank god for the angels of Industrialism and their shield-buildings). This building had a row of dusty windows on each wall at the top; aside from that it was empty and had light pouring in through the windows, forming rays that were exaggerated by the dirt and dust on the panes. I heard a knocking sound on the far end of the building and as I approached, the ground around me cracked and shattered, it's particles being thrown into the air in slow motion. I woke up.

COBALT is recognised as the leading Baltic law firm in the Nordic region by volume of transactions advised in 2017, according to M&A reviews presented by international business news agency Bloomberg.
In total, COBALT worked on 17 qualifying transactions valued USD 778 million last year.
One of our highlights in 2017 was advising LUMINOR on the largest ever transaction in the Baltic banking market, guiding the client through all the legal aspects of the deal over the past two years, including obtaining a new banking licence and regulatory approvals from the European Central Bank and Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian Financial Supervision Authorities.
Dr Irmantas Norkus, Chairman of COBALT, commented that M&A market was sufficiently active in the Baltic States last year. According to him, last year bigger companies were sold at a higher price – the recovery of the European and global economy and the supply of cheap money encouraged investment, which caused the prices of target companies to increase.
According to Dr Irmantas Norkus, 2017 saw active cross-border acquisitions by Lithuanian and other Baltic investors and this trend should continue into 2018.
Bloomberg M&A Review provides the latest data on corporate M&A transactions from a global perspective. The Review covers international prospects and gives insights about unique transactions carried out in various markets. The performance of over 800 financial and legal advisers is assessed to accurately identify key market trends.

I think it's about time to build an ark. It started raining sometime in the middle of the night and has not stopped at all. Not even tapered off. We have some drip, drip, drips happening in our ceiling that go along quite nicely with the constant downpour outside.
Jason and I did manage to make our way to the gym. I started with the elliptical for 15 minutes as a warmup then hit the weights for chest, shoulders and hamstrings. Everything was 3x8.
Chest flye into press
Pushups with toes on bench
Shoulder press
Bulgarian deadlifts (ouch, freaking ouch. I must conquer these bad boys)
Lateral raise
Step ups with rear leg lift at top
Upright rows
Hamstring rollins on ball
I followed up with some abs. It should go without saying that my arse is already sore ;-)
Rainy Day & Christmas Decorations
My original intention was to leave the gym and get to Whole Foods. But it was just pouring down, and I had no desire to fight stupid drivers in the rain just to get to WFs. So, straight home we went. I got cleaned up and immediately put on comfy yoga pants, long-sleeved T, and warm fuzzy jacket (not a coat, but sort of a fleece thing).
While I don't really enjoy rainy days, they can be nice for forcing you to just stay in, get things done around the house, and/or take it easy for a change. We kind of did a little bit of both: got things done and took it easy.
Next on the list was to get the Christmas tree and decorations out of the attic and downstairs. I usually love having a 2-story house. Today...not so much. This was definitely another workout in and of itself. We'll call it Christmas Cardio.
|This is the entryway
|Tree in our pool room
Do you go all out with decorations? I have some friends who have multiple trees even. I finally get annoyed putting up one tree let alone two and three.
Right now I have some butternut squash baking in the oven, some wheatberries cooking, and kale waiting to be sauteed. If it's recipe-worthy, I'll post tomorrow. For now, I am off to enjoy the last remnant of the weekend. I hope you do the same!
Daily To-Enjoy List:
- Gym time
- Christmas tree up (love/hate on this one)
- Relaxing day - no makeup or hair styling

My family LOVES lasagna. However, I don't usually have the time to do all the pretty parts to make lasagna happen.
So this has been my solution - and it IS the real thing - only difference is, I just mix it together like a casserole. *grin* close your eyes and eat. .. yum.
I start with 8 oz of bowtie pasta or penne pasta (gluten free) cook that up.
While that's cooking away,
Fry up:
1/2 pound sausage, sausage - 2 - 3 kinds is desirable for true italian flavor
1/2 pound pound ground beef
1 onion, sliced
1 green pepper, sliced
1-2 cloves garlic, minced
cook til onion is almost carmelizing and all meat is cooked. drain and set aside.
Mix together:
15 oz container ricotta
1 egg, beaten
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup italian blend cheeses, grated (i buy from aldi - a cash only grocery store)
1/8 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup parsley, chopped finely
Either pull from your pantry/freezer your homemade pasta sauce or use your favorite jarred sauce.
mix everything together in a greased 8x12 pan.
sprinkle a bag of grated mozzarella cheese on top.
Put in oven 350*F for 1/2 hour or so - til everything is bubbly and smelling oh so yummy and the cheese is starting to brown on top.
Pull from oven and serve.
Voila, easy messy lasagna. :) and it's even gluten free! *grin*
bake at 350*F oven

Got started at the beginning of the month with the KAL in the Knit Picks Lovers group on Ravely. I am using the Toe-Up Socks With a Difference pattern by Wendy Johnson and am adding in the motif from Pillars by Lisa Stichweh. For my yarn I am using some Knit Picks stroll tonal in the blue yonder colorway, I am absolutely loving how the colors are blending, such gorgeous blues, teals, and aquas. It was a pretty easy start once I figures out the cast on. One of the Ravelers posted this link for a video explanation of how to get TAAT started on magic loop, after watching it through twice I gave it a go and got my socks cast on with my first try.
I followed the instructions for the increases and then did an additional 4 rounds before starting the lacy motif on the instep. I am really liking how they are coming along so far, but am worried about how to increase the gusset to make for a taller heel flap. I was clued into this post from Wendy's blog (a great read if you love knitting!) where she describes altering her pattern (yes the one I am using, hooray!) to make room for a taller heel flap. I think her adjustment may be a bit much for me, but it definitely gives me a starting off point to adjust the pattern to fit my feet. Thank goodness for helpful knitters on Ravelry! I wouldn't have had the guts to try toe up socks without knowing I could get their help.
I am actually a bit past where I was when I took the pictures, I am just about ready to start my increases for the gusset. Wish me luck as I try to figure this next step out!

Gloria Dei || Belmont, CA
by Emily Mantuefel and Kennedy DeVries, Kingdom Workers Volunteers
The theme at Bible camp in Belmont, California was Camp Discovery. Each day the campers learned new verses that corresponded with the focus of the day. For example, on Monday the take home point was "Discover Jesus, He gives me courage". To emphasize this point the children learned "Be strong and courageous. For the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go" Joshua 1:9. Each of the daily verses had sign language to go with it. On the last day of camp, the campers enjoyed leading their group by individually doing the actions of one of the passages. A student demonstrates the actions from one of the passages they learned that week. Then, the other students had the opportunity to raise their hand and recall the reference to the verse (that had just been demonstrated with only sign language).
Another activity the campers enjoyed was leading each other in song. All of the songs had sign language to go with them. At the end of the week the students got in groups and took turns being the leaders of the sign language. Each group stood in front of the church for one song and then led their fellow students in the words and actions. The campers really enjoyed this because they were able to show what they had learned about Christ in their songs.
Emily Mantuefel
I was blessed with the opportunity to travel to Belmont, California and help out with Gloria Dei Lutheran Church's Vacation Bible School. In the VBS camp, the theme was "Camp Discovery" and the kids were able to discover the different ways Jesus is at work through us. There were around 50 children ranging from 3-4 year-olds to 9-10 year- olds moving through the different activities in the camp: music, games, storytelling, and snack.
In music, they learned actions and words to songs, such as "Praise God from Whom all Blessings Flow" and the theme song "Camp Discovery", which tells the ways Jesus works through them by praying, helping, serving, and sharing God's Word to others. Also, they were taught the passage of the day with corresponding actions. Meanwhile in storytelling, they heard the Bible story of the day and engaged in thought questions giving them ways to stand up for people while also being a disciple of the Lord and spreading His Word with others by inviting them to church. It was truly inspiring to see all of the kids excited to engage in God's Word every day and sing praises for him. By the end of the week, the kids didn't want to leave and we didn't want them to. Through this camp, you could see the children's faith being strengthened as they were surrounded with the Word of God in all their activities and heard God's message each day. It was such a blessing to have Jesus work through me to share his gospel with others.

Where does our morality come from and how does it inform every aspect of our lives? Why, oh, why do people that we love and respect conclude completely different ideas about the world than we do? Why do Christians, people who are commanded to love others, have difficulty including them in their social circles? We will look through the lens of moral psychology and theology for the answers. We apply what we read by examining our own world view in comparison with others on religion, politics, culture, tribe, death and sex, among other things.

This glossy Abelia, Abelia Grandiflora, is centered under the front porch, and does an excellent job of hiding the porch foundation. In mid-summer, it comes alight with thousands of small white trumpet-shaped flowers, with a peculiar, though not unpleasant fragrance. It attracts bumblebees by the hundreds! A close-up of the flowers is shown below.
The abelia is also very attractive to some butterflies; quite often, a half-dozen or more of tiger swallowtails are fluttering around the blossoms.
In the middle of October, 2000, the abelia has been in bloom for at least four weeks and is still going strong.
It's July of 2003 and the abelia is in full bloom, much to the delight of the butterflies.
Here we are in late august; the abelia is still in bloom, perfuming the garden with its honey scent, and attracting lots and lots of tiger swallowtail butterflies.
It's August 2004 and the Abelia is in full bloom, scenting the garden air and attracting hordes of bumblebees and tiger swallowtail butterflies.
One of the nice things about the abelia is that it stays in bloom for a long time. It's now more than a month later and it's still going strong! Everyone who visits immediately notices the fragrance.
After giving the abelia a severe pruning in the spring of 2006, it's grown back nicely and now, in mid-July, it's in bloom.
It's now late July and the abelia is still in full bloom and is attracting many tiger swallowtail butterflies.
Here, one is poised upside-down with its proboscis inserted deep into the flower.
Here's a good shot of the underside.
It's Sunday, the 20th of August. During a stroll through the garden, I noticed something fluttering around the abelia that wasn't a tiger swallowtail. I ran for the camera and was in time to get a few pictures of a small brown butterfly. While it wouldn't open its wings for me, from these photos I was able to identify it as a silver spotted skipper, a butterfly that I haven't seen very often in my many years in New Jersey.
The abelia also attracts many other insects. The bumblebees are a laugh -- they bumble around the bush and it's funny watching them trying to get their large heads as deep as possible into the flowers.
While shooting the photos above, I noticed a tiger swallowtail in the abelia, but this one was different, still and lifeless. As I reached in for it, I encountered a spider web and, indeed, the swallowtail was wrapped with webbing. Here's the poor thing as I found it:
And here, judging by the location of the web and its occupant, as well as the occupant's disposition, is the culprit. WARNING: if you have arachnophobia, do NOT scroll any further down this page!
Later on in the afternoon, I was outside again, camera in hand, when two more visitors came to the abelia. The first looks to be another type of skipper butterfly, though which type I don't know.
The other isn't a butterfly, but rather a moth. A very peculiar moth that thinks it's a hummingbird! It hovers in the air, it's rapidly beating wings making a humming sound, and you could mistake it for a small hummingbird if it wasn't for the antennae! As it happens, it's a hummingbird moth, though since I was unable to freeze the wings in motion (even at a shutter speed of 1/125th second), I can't really say which one it is (if I had to guess, I'd guess the clearwing variety). Here are a few photos of this very unusual visitor to the abelia.
Using a shutter speed of 1/350th second, I was able to freeze the motion of the wings. Here are a few shots. Its clearly a clearwing hummingbird moth.
Back to the tiger swallowtails ... occasionally, you see a dark-form female. Quite often, you'd be tempted to confuse it with a black swallowtail, but it's pretty easy to distinguish them from the underside of the wing. Here's a dark-form female, both from the top and from the underside. This poor butterfly has been through the wars -- wings worn and tattered -- but it's a good example of this variety nonetheless.
The beginning of July 2007 bring the start of the Abelia's bloom.
As always, the abelia attracts beautiful winged visitors. First the underside ...
... and then the upperside of a beautiful tiger swallowtail butterfly.
It's the July 4th weekend 2011 and the abelia is in bloom, scenting the front porch with its honey aroma and attracting scads of bumblebees.
Here's a silver spotted skipper butterfly that was drawn to the abelia.
I was able to catch a clearwing hummingbird moth visiting the abelia as well.

Short description
Greystoke Mahale, Western Tanzania
In pictures
Greystoke Mahale is located in remote western Tanzania. Well off the beaten track, this very unique lodge offers a mesmerising combination of beach, bush and one of the largest groups of chimpanzees in Africa. The camp backs onto a soft, white sandy beach and the crystal-clear waters of Lake Tanganyika, framed by the imposing Mahale mountains.
The 'banda' style rooms have been fashioned from retired dhows and almost all of the lodge has been created using sustainable materials. Spend your days visiting the chimpanzees who live in the mountains behind the camp and are completely relaxed.

Forge about strict dieting and sweating it out at the gym – an easy blood test could be the key to dropping the pounds.
A new study carried out by an American university claimed identifying and eliminating foods we react to can help shed weight.
Professor John Lewis, of the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, said a simple blood test can show food intolerances or hidden food sensitivities that may contribute to obesity.
He added the procedure could finally help overweight people lose the stubborn pounds they have struggled with for years.
Prof Lewis said: "While there are countless dieting programmes on the market, none of them recognises the possibility that certain foods, even healthy ones like tomatoes, could be problematic if they trigger an immune system response in overweight people.
"Eliminating foods that are IgG-reactive, while replacing them with similar, non-reactive foods to ensure nutrient deficiencies do not occur, is a new strategy for addressing obesity."
He added several previous studies have linked inflammation in the digestive tract to obesity. Prof Lewis said: "It's likely that these reactive foods have a chronic inflammatory effect on the body.
"Once you subtract those foods from the diet, the immune system can regulate, which lowers the chronic, systemic inflammation, and thus helps people to lose weight.
"Clearly, more research is needed into the metabolic processes involving inflammation and obesity."
Prof Lewis' study involved 120 people taking a finger prick blood test across 115 foods.
The test established which food provoked an IgG-mediated antibody response from the immune system.
Prof Lewis continued: "Identifying specific foods that cause a reaction from an individual's immune system and eliminating them from the diet could be an additional strategy for long-lasting and perhaps permanent weight loss."
People here can now take a similar test from YorkTest Laboratories to determine if there are any foods they need to eliminate from their diets.
The simple blood examination costs €10 for an initial indicator.
If the sample is positive for intolerances a further general test can be carried out at a McCabes Pharmacy nationwide for €350.
YorkTest's Ireland manager Sonja Waters said: "This medical research indicates that people can improve their general wellbeing and lose weight by pinpointing intolerances they have to certain foods.
"By eliminating these foods and following a healthy eating plan devised by our support team, real benefits accrue.
"This trial based on targeting food intolerances resulted in the participants on average losing 12lbs over 90 days."

One of the most important, inspirational, and meaningful sayings I live by is: "all you need is love". I am 24 and a recent half graduated university student. I'm obsessed with chocolate and my favourite book is "Brave New World". I've experienced many terrible and many beautiful things in the past few years. However I have been fortunate enough to experience falling in love...two and a half times...I say two and a half because two people I know I love and the half…well you'll see.
The first love was extraordinary. We were together for about a year and a half. He taught me many things that in turn allowed me to grow tremendously as a person. He was also there for me throughout my hardest years of life. During 2011, over the span of 6 months, 5 young people I know passed away. I was a complete fucking wreck and naturally this weakened the progression of a healthy relationship. A few years after these tragedies, and the inevitable crumble of this relationship, I was reminiscing about my former love. I wondered: why the fuck did things turn out this way...? I will never forget what my Mum (I love my Mum...probably much more than she even knows) said to me: "It wasn't meant to be and that's ok! You know why? Because just by him being present he was doing so much good for you. He was there for you through those difficult moments. He helped you get through that terrible time and that was the purpose for him being a part of your life...to help you." - Thank you first love; I don't know if I ever said that to you...
The second love... We met a few years ago during what I like to refer to as the most ridiculous cake incident I've ever been a part of. Picture a two person cake fight amongst a 50 person booze filled slop show birthday party. The cake fight ended with us two cake-covered people cleaning ourselves up and during the process flooding a bathroom using a bidet. Naturally we headed out to the "hottest" nightclub with cake bits still crusted all over...we ended the night with ... well I'll leave that to your imagination. I was fortunate to spend the rest of the year getting into many other crazy shenanigans with him. Sadly he graduated and headed to the other side of the country. However a few months later, during the adult version of Disneyland: Shambhala Music Festival, (in Salmo BC...if you get a chance go...it's truly life changing) our paths crossed again. As time has it things came to an end and we both returned to our separate lives...Although not before spending one more week together.
The half love is interesting. We met at the beginning of this past summer. I can whole heartedly tell each one of you that I have never in my life experienced a stronger connection with a stranger....ever. We met briefly and months later we met again... coincidentally at another music festival. Every time we saw each other it was as though a strong cosmic energy pulled us together. It was some magical. I distinctly remember a moment where we gazed into each others eyes for a solid 30 seconds....that's a feat...try it with someone sometime; it's a wonderful feeling. Afterwards we continuously seemed to see each other in odd places around the city. It was nice, however, I soon left the city on soul pilgrimage across the country.... yet not before finding out he too would be at this year's Shambhala Music Festival.
I travelled around the states and Canada en route to Beautiful BC. When I arrived "home" I had a very odd feeling that half love would not be in attendance. I was right...actually a friend had purchased his ticket last minute. The universe is interesting in these regards because guess which love was there? Love number two. It was the first time we had seen each other in a year...and it was beautiful. Everything between us fell right back into place. Following the festival we were fortunate to be able to spend yet another week together. When he left I could barely speak…all I could muster up were copious amounts of tears.
It is so important to share love and appreciation with people. Love is the most beautiful part of life. I want you to know that no matter what or where you are there is love in your life. Love can be found in the Earth's energy, within yourself, in the smile of a stranger, the embrace of someone special, and even in the most painful of situations. Trust that the universe has the best path for you…so follow your heart and follow your feet!
I would definitely be interested in hearing your stories of love, helpful tips on grieving, meditation advice, places to do yoga, and any advice on how to make it in Event and Promotion Marketing!
To each of you I send a bit of loving energy and I hope that you will always tell them how you feel <3

Fort Cronkite Rodeo Beach Swell Statistics, Setembro: All Swell – Any Wind
This picture describes the range of swells directed at Fort Cronkite Rodeo Beach through a typical September, based on 2880 NWW3 model predictions since 2006 (values every 3 hours). The wave model does not forecast surf and wind right at the coast so we have chosen the best grid node based on what we know about Fort Cronkite Rodeo Beach. In the case of Fort Cronkite Rodeo Beach, the best grid node is 37 km away (23 miles).
The rose diagram describes the distribution of swell sizes and swell direction, while the graph at the bottom shows the same thing but without direction information. Five colours show increasing wave sizes. The smallest swells, less than 0.5m (1.5 feet), high are coloured blue. These happened only 48% of the time. Green and yellow illustrate increasing swell sizes and highest swells greater than >3m (>10ft) are shown in red. In each graph, the area of any colour is proportional to how often that size swell happens.
The diagram indicates that the prevailing swell direction, shown by the largest spokes, was SW, whereas the the dominant wind blows from the WNW. Because the wave model grid is away from the coast, sometimes a strong offshore wind blows largest waves away from Fort Cronkite Rodeo Beach and out to sea. We group these with the no surf category of the bar chart. To keep it simple we don't show these in the rose plot. Because wind determines whether or not waves are good for surfing at Fort Cronkite Rodeo Beach, you can load a different image that shows only the swells that were predicted to coincide with glassy or offshore wind conditions. Over an average September, swells large enough to cause clean enough to surf waves at Fort Cronkite Rodeo Beach run for about 52% of the time.
IMPORTANT: Beta version feature! Swell heights are open water values from NWW3. There is no attempt to model near-shore effects. Coastal wave heights will generally be less, especially if the break does not have unobstructed exposure to the open ocean.

First weigh in
I weighed in this morning and I now weigh 216. That is only a drop of 4 lbs but the cool part is that that my body fat percent dropped from 29% to 27%. That means that I went from about 64 lbs of fat to about 58 lbs of fat. I will take a drop of 6 lbs of fat and a muscle gain of about 2 lbs. It seems to bode well for the next weigh in as I continue to do the resistance exercises.

Great Tone: Part 2 of 3
Posted September 3, 2014on:
Tone is influenced primarily by three factors:
- Embouchure, particularly the lower lip
- Tongue placement
- Oral space/open throat
In my previous post, I discussed embouchure, particularly lower lip placement and formation. In today's post, I'll be covering tongue placement.
To produce great tone, the back of the tongue should be placed higher in the mouth. This causes the air to pass over it in a more "compressed" fashion and exit the aperture (the hole your lips make) at a higher, more energized speed. If the tongue is too low in the mouth, placing the tongue higher almost always results in a dramatic improvement in sound.
Two concepts I use to achieve this:
- "Mountain" tongue — think of the tongue as a mountain range inside the mouth. Just as with mountains on earth, the air passing over them moves at a faster rate.
- Say the word "key." Say it several times while noticing where the sides of your tongue contact your teeth. You should feel the sides contacting your upper molars.
Make changes gradually! After you have done the "key" exercise, play a long note using the new tongue position. Assuming you are moving enough air and have established breath support, you should hear the sound become stronger and more defined.
Once you've achieved this, try tonguing. If you notice the sound is negatively affected, you may be tonguing between the lips. This is an established method of tonguing, usually taught with the "spitting rice" technique, but it's not the tonguing I teach for multiple reasons, and this is one of them. In my opinion, it's difficult to tongue between the lips while maintaining a high tongue position. It's almost as though the tongue isn't long enough to do both. If you feel this is your difficulty, try tonguing so the tip of the tongue lands on the backside of the upper front teeth, as though you are saying "too." Once you've got the hang of that, go back to the high tongue placement exercises.
Improving Piccolo Tone Quality
Posted February 18, 2009on:
There's plenty of examples of great flute playing for us to fill our heads with, but great piccolo playing is a little harder to come by.
In this 6 minute YouTube video, Dr. Leonard Garrison, flute professor at the University of Idaho, discusses techniques specific to the piccolo and also demonstrates some nice tone.

This is a nice shot - I've always found orchids to be a challenge to photograph because of their tendency to be bunched up like this. I do have a couple suggestions though...
First, it looks like your point of sharpest focus is on the middle of the three blossoms. In a case like this, where that blossom is partially obscured, you may want to try and focus on the first blossom that isn't obscured at all. There are some techniques you could use to achieve this - let me know if you want more detail here. Alternatively, some added depth of field may have been used to get all three blossoms in focus at once.
Second, the shot seems slightly unbalanced. If you're not opposed to it, I would rotate the shot CCW by what looks like about 5 degrees or so. Just enough to get the bottom two petals of the right most flower to be level with each other.
Lastly, after the rotate, I would crop in a little bit to get the edges equal - so that each side has the same amount of free space from the flowers to the edge of the frame. Unfortunately, it looks like the bottom edge will be your marker for that and it is pretty tight.
That said, the shot is very nicely done. The colors are very vibrant, and the diagonal positioning of the flowers in the frame is very appealing.
Nice work.
- Bill
