.... was a little slice of heaven for all of us! The sun felt so good and warm. The cool breeze was perfect.
The water? Well, the water felt like dipping your feet into ice water. I made a pact with myself not to enter even my big toe after I felt how cold it was. Photography, however, won out. I didn't bring my zoom lens with me and I was shooting with my 85mm portrait lens. If I wanted pictures of the kids where they didn't look like little ants, I had to climb in the ocean after them.
They certainly didn't mind how cold it was!
But, eventually they turned slightly blue and decided to come out and play in the sand.

The beach looks wonderful! We went to the beach yesterday.....a lake beach, boy would I LOVE a day at the ocean!ReplyDelete
I want to be at the beach :-)ReplyDelete
Thanks for following me on Blog Frog.
So cute! It is WAY too cold for me to go swimming still, but the kids have been asking to go for the past month :)ReplyDelete
It's amazing how kids don't seem to mind the cold... Mine have both been asking to go to the beach since early this year. The weather hasn't really been beach weather yet though. :(ReplyDelete

Comments about Sony Bloggie Touch HD Video Camera:
The sony bloggie is an interesting camera. It has HD capabilities, and yet, still fits in your pocket. At the time, this was nice, but with technology still developing each year, there will be (maybe already are out there) better cameras than this about the same size.
Performs like a charm! The HD looks nice, and the pictures aren't bad either. On occasion though, there is a bit of blur, but you just need to keep your hand steady. The auto-focus doesn't work very well with some backgrounds, but overall, the quality is good.
Battery Life
Unfortunately, the battery for this model is inside the device, and not removable. Filming HD takes a lot of power, yes, so having the 2-3 hour battery life is somewhat understandable. Still, it's sad that there isn't a battery pack you can switch to.
HD camera is surprisingly sturdy. I dropped mine a few times (unintentionally, of course), and it didn't leave any scratches, marks, or anything. Didn't get damaged, and still works great.
Ease of Use
This is very easy to use. Sony even included software for importing/sending pictures to be a breeze. Very easy, very fun.
Good design, fits perfectly in your pocket. Still, I would have liked to have a removable battery, to be able to change it out, and not just have to charge it.
Comments about Sony Bloggie Touch HD Video Camera:
For video things can't be moving or they'll be blurry. Trying to move from one thing to another causes issues. Pictures must be taken by being very still. Switching from modes is a hassle, as is using touch screen controls. Uploaded ease is the only positive but when you're uploading junk because nothing took well, how much does it really matter?!?
See overall rating for this information.
Battery Life
This camera was dead after approx. thirty minutes of video and maybe 30 pics.
It's a small, handheld camera and it's durability is on par with others in the same category. I worry about the touch screen breaking if you dropped it even once because it takes up the entire face of the product.
Ease of Use
Again, please see overall review.
Features are not functional as designed. This is not functional to switch modes on (from pics to vid and back) and vid touchscreen controls are a hassle.
Comments about Sony Bloggie Touch HD Video Camera:
If you need a camera that is easy to use, this is it. It doesn't have anything flashy, including a flash to go along with it. The zoom isn't great, neither is the software that goes along with it. The amount of internal memory is great, but if your looking to expand that, it isn't going to happen, there is not place for an sd card.
Comments about Sony Bloggie Touch HD Video Camera:
This is an awesome camera and video recorder. It is really easy to use.
Battery Life
The battery charges while you are uploading your photos. I have never ran out of battery life.
The reason I say this, one day I was taking pictures are the pool and I left the camera lying on a table. It was in the Sony carrying case that came with the camera and that night when hard a rain storm. The next day when I was looking for the Sony I remember I left it by the pool. The first thing I thought I was glad that I had purchase the extra warranty. When I open the case it was fine. I took a picture and it turned out fantastic.
Ease of Use
I am not anyway at all technical and I was nervous about this process, but all you do is plug it in the computer and everything is loaded for your. Following the directions and that's it. It was so easy. I now can upload pictures to emails, facebook etc.....
Comments about Sony Bloggie Touch HD Video Camera:
Fast, easy to use, takes fantastic photos and videos. This compact unit has a high-definition camera for still photos, takes full-HD video, and has built-in software to easily manage both. With only 3 buttons (on/off, still photo, and video) the camera is mostly managed through its touch-screen interface. Turns on and is ready to use in less tha 2 seconds, so you'll never miss that special moment! Has a pop-out USB interface for downloading your media to your computer.

Boots Without the Fur
Remember how I said I love my brown boots???? Proof of same, evidenced via the above collage. I should really change the resolution on my camera so I can make a nicer pullout, but alas I am lazy and you will have to forgive me a little blur.
I scored these super skinny jeans a couple days ago at my store for $2.48 and then wore them to work yesterday with the green ensemble. Super comfortable for a CRAZY, insane work day but looked chic and on trend. I wore the grey combo last year with my regular dark wash skinny jeans and always thought it wasn't quite right. LOVE it with these super skinnies though. This bargain was a total slam dunk, and makes me love my boots that much more! So many tops, so little time.
It's YOLO Monday again over at Molly's. Click the link or the sidebar button, either way go check them out!
Also linking with Not Dead Yet for Visible Monday. Another lovely set of women for us to get to know, how fun!

Those are some great boots, Alyssa! And I LOVE that gorgeous, silky green blouse. Thanks so much for commenting on my blog so I could find yours!!! ~Sarah of Sarah Hulbert StyleReplyDelete
Thank you Sarah! What a thrill to hear from you!ReplyDelete
Hi Alysa, and thanks for joining up with Visible Monday! Love this look, and skinnies are definitely fab for you. Come back next week!ReplyDelete
Thanks very much Patti! I am not as brave as some of the other "visible ladies" but I am working towards that!ReplyDelete
Oooh, good score on those jeans! I adore the polka dot blouse. My first visit here, and will have to read some earlier posts.ReplyDelete
Thanks Sue, the blouse was a good score too at $12 from TJ Maxx! I'm so glad you stopped by to visit, I'll be along to check out acolourfulcanvas soon!!Delete
Isn't it great that it's time to bring the boots out and let them play? Everything chic and trim. Green blouse especially appealing. I'm a lot shy about posting my own outfits, but little else. You fit right in! Welcome to Visible Mondays.ReplyDelete
@JaninJabitt; Thanks for your nice words of welcome! Don't be shy about posting your pics (they are so small on your site!!), you are lovely and you have great style. I (thank goodness) haven't really seen any negative comments in that community so grab your camera and get posting!!ReplyDelete

"I am confident, but never over confident" - Prachi Desai
We have a small table-talk with the propitious actress to share with you:
In your winning show Jhalak Dikhla Jaa, you had a mentor to teach you dancing. But you are playing the role of a dance teacher to five guys in your soon-to-be-shown show Yeh Hai Jalwa. How have you prepared for the show?
I have not prepared much for the show. Actually all the children taking part in the show are so spontaneous and so energetic that I had to go with almost no preparation at all. I think all I have to concentrate on is to build up a relationship with them.
Rakhi told us that she is taking part in the show because there is no bride in the show. What would you like to say about that?
I must remind Rakhi that there are not one but four brides in the show. We all are brides in our respective shows but in this reality show we all are working as what we are. And I think I am not Bani, but Prachi Desai in this show. And as far as I can remember Rakhi said that she is taking part in the show because there is no bride from the channel 9X in this show, which makes her relieved.
You said that you are not over confident but just confident. Why so, when you have won a dance reality show recently?
Yeah, that's true. I am confident and never over confident. Believe me; I am saying this from the bottom of my heart. I was the winner in my last show but I cannot forget practising because of that. My last show has increased the expectation of my audience and I have to work even harder to fulfil their expectations. I won my last show because of the votes of my audience and I have to keep them in my mind. I have to teach dancing to five guys and I have to see that they win. It's now all about their dreams and I have to see that they don't lose their hopes because of me.
Don't you think that this expectation is an added pressure on you?
Not at all. I never think of that in this way. But you know the truth is that I get tired of working hard in my all other shows and shootings. But truly speaking, I have never felt any pressure from my audience. At the same time their expectations boost us for the best only.
You are the teacher of the group Masti Ki Pathsala in the show Yeh Hai Jalwa. How much do you enjoy?
I enjoy it too much. I am happy that I have students from colleges with me. And they are of my age. I have not seen my college for last two years, so being with them I can be little nostalgic sharing my college days. And besides rehearsing we spend much time together.
Do you share your college days with your students in the show?
I have just shot for two or three days with them. I don't think they feel comfortable with me as of now, because we have not interacted that much. But I am trying on and on so that they feel comfortable with me. And you know, the first day they came for the shooting, they addressed me as 'mam' only. But now they call me as Prachi only after I forbade them to call me 'mam'. I want them to be more casual with me so that we can perform even better.
You have signed a film with Farhan Akhtar. Please tell us about that film.
The name of the film is Rock On. We are still shooting for the film. It's the first film in both of our careers and that's why we both are working harder on that. It's completely based on Mumbai and I am playing the role of a young lady from Mumbai. It's quite a unique experience for me. I am really impressed that Farhan Akhtar is as good an actor as a director. I have no right to say anything else on that film now.
How can you relate yourself with the character?
She is like 50 percent to my real life character. But yeah, she is quite different from my character Bani. She is quite confident and hard working like me.
From bride to competitor in reality show and from there to actress in a film. How satisfied are you with this journey?
I am really happy and I am doing more than what I have ever expected. I am just hoping I use the chance to the fullest. Nobody would like to let such a chance go and I guess everyone would have worked equally hard for the offer.
Do you have any more wish that you like to achieve?
I don't have any particular dream. I have been living with the only dream of becoming an actress and that I have achieved that. Now I only hope to preserve what I have.
Audience has accepted you as a daughter-in-law. Do you think they will accept you as an actress too?
I think they will always be with me. And I pray to them for their support. I have taken the risk of acting in films depending on them. I love them the way they love me. I won the reality show only because of their votes and am preparing for the second reality show for them only. And I know they will never break my heart.
You are so busy with film and television these days. How do you arrange time for that?
I think my mother is facing more problems because of that time management. I still have few days to work for Kasamh Se. And at the same time I am working for films, too. And besides all I am doing the reality show also. So I need more time. But I am doing everything properly, I guess.

My top ten coaches for this year's college football season.
1. Chris Petersen, Boise State
Petersen has Boise going for another undefeated season now only if they could bump into the national title game would it top it all off. He has turned this team around especially the underrated defense. This team who plays in the weaker WAC conference can compete with anybody as they did when they beat OU in the Fiesta Bowl a few years back. I doubt they get to play in the national title this year but if they keep it up like this, Boise could have a shot in the near future.
2. Gary Patterson, TCU
Patterson has done a great job at TCU by thriving with speed on defense in the 4-2-5. TCU's defense has shown they are capable of matching up with almost anyone they play. The question has always been QB play but so far this year Patterson has helped Dalton become a quality quarterback. TCU could very well be playing in the national title thanks to great coaching and schemes by Patterson and his staff.
3. Nick Saban, Alabama
Nick Saban not only wins football games but usually wins the recruiting battle as well. Saban is known for great defenses and this year has been the very same result. Yes he has lost two games but in the South Carolina game, the Gamecocks made two to three tough plays that ended up leading to their victory. It could have easily been a close game if it wasn't for those great catches by Alshon Jeffery. Besides that, Saban is stocking up with even more blue chip defensive recruits with next year's class which could lead to a very strong defense for the Crimson Tide to come.
4. Chip Kelly, Oregon
Kelly has this team steam rolling to the national title game out of the Pac 10, which is usually won by USC. Kelly has done a great job of working the zone read and getting his team to buy into his system. Now if he can only get the defense on track then we could be saying Oregon Ducks 2011 national champs.
5. Jim Tressel, Ohio State
Ohio State seems to always make into the top ten. A lot of that has to go to Tressel and the way he prepares his team. Not only does he stick to the run game but he loves big time playmakers on defense. Yes he does have the conservative style of play and likes to play field position but you really can't complain with the way he has been winning consistently in the Big 10 or 11.
6. Gene Chizik, Auburn
Aggressive gang tackling defenses is what Chizik coaches which has put Auburn at #1 in the nation. He has Auburn playing smart and aggressive defense just as he did when he was coaching at Texas. The offense will hold its own with Cameron Newton at the helm but since Chizik has taken over as head coach this team is primed to be atop the SEC.
7. Bret Bielema, Wisconsin
Bielema has done a quality job with the Badgers. Not only has he done great on the field but off the field as well. In 2009, 21 of the Badgers made Academic All-Big Ten, the highest in school history. As coaches know when you have smart students and mix in football it only adds to success. The Badgers have gone to four straight bowl games under Bielema and he is getting hungrier every year to do even better than the previous year. As long as Bielema is the captain of this ship they should be in good shape.
8. Jim Harbaugh, Stanford
Harbaugh is a player's coach. He is friendly, funny, and fun to be around. Not only have I met him in person, but he explained the ins and outs of the Quarterback position to the finest of details. With that said, Harbaugh has one of the best, if not the best, QB in the nation in Andrew Luck. Luck has a QB rating of a 162 and is showing that he is primed for the NFL. Harbaugh and company are going in the right direction now they just need to keep it going.
9. Dan Mullen, Mississippi State
Mullen is a fiery coach. He coaches games and practice with passion. He is trying to take the Bulldogs to a whole new level. This year they beat the Florida Gators in the swamp, which to me is a great way in making that step to the next level. He is a quarterbacks coach however, and knows how to get the best out of them. He has coached the likes of Alex Smith, Chris Leak, Josh Harris, and Tim Tebow. Now if he can get Tyler Russell to do the same as he has with others they should be looking at going to bowl games more often than not.
10. Mark Dantonio, Michigan State
The Spartan football program is starting to look like the Spartan basketball program. Well not quite yet but if they can keep winning consistently they could very well be. Dantonio is a defensive minded coach who gets the best out of his players. Take for example current middle linebacker Greg Jones who has risen to stardom with his great play. While he was coaching at Ohio State he did the very same thing by making the 2003 team the number one defense in the country and having thirteen players go pro. If Dantonio can win a few more big games the Spartans could be fighting for the top spot in their conference.

I'm not the only one that writes about this travesty. Heres a post I've copied with permission of the author and worth a read!
"This is embarrassing. The scientific community should be ashamed.
This group of scientists is so inbred if some of its' members would have children together physicians would probably warn them of the risk of birth defects. If this isn't collusion what is? This "independent review" is the equivalent of a bunch of elementary school children grading each others papers. ("hey look we all got "A"s)
This is a group made up of exclusively "bird people" who see everything through the prism of birds. The problem is the park was created for the enjoyment and recreation of the people. Not just a select group, but all the people. And that means multiple forms of recreation, not just bird watching. What these people and their obsession remind me of is when in the movie "Forrest Gump" Forrest meets the Mississippi shrimper Bubba. Bubba is obsessed with shrimp and shrimping, and everything he seeing he somehow relates to and of shrimp and shrimping. So it is with our bird friend "Bubbas".
By their own admission in the USGS report there were ZERO nesting plovers reported in CHNSRA from 1902-1960. This included a time period in which plover population rebounded in the 1940's and there was no development on the Outer Banks. Why no nesting? Obviously the conditions naturally present, provided very marginal nesting conditions compared to the prefered areas to the north. They then refer to 4 nesting pairs in the park by 1984 with their numbers peaking in 1989 at 15 pairs with nesting pairs declining since. Let me connect some dots for the birders. They also mention in this report how the Northeastern population went into decline until efforts were put in place during the 1980's to improve their natural/native nesting areas in the Northeast. I'll go slow birders, when one nesting area gets compromised/degraded, the birds are likely to emigrate to other nesting grounds (Cohen August 2009), so with development in the 1950s-70's in the Northeast areas, the birds expanded their nesting grounds to what is naturally less desirable/productive nesting areas, like CHNSRA. When the preferred natural nesting areas further north were upgraded, they emigrated back, reducing the nesting population in CHNSRA. If you look at the big picture it's pretty obvious. The base number of nesting population of plovers at CHNSRA is ZERO!
The lead author of this "report" Jonathan Cohen published some more recent science (as cited above) where he talks about populations emigrating from one nesting area to another. He also talks about the removal of grasses and creation/restoration of quality habitat including using beach nourishment projects. This is not unlike proposals "pro access" people have been suggesting for years at the point. This study also starts out with an interesting comment
"The threatened population of Atlantic Coast piping plovers (Charadrius melodus) has increased under intensive management of predation and disturbance. However, the relative importance of habitat quality, nest predation, and chick predation in population dynamics and reproductive success of this species are poorly understood."
Cohen makes another observation of note in his August 2009 study: "Restored breeding sites that attract plovers will not contribute to overall population recovery if reproductive success is poor and such sites may become ecological traps (i.e., locations where settlement cues are not coupled with fitness benefits; Robertson and Hutto 2006)."
In other words, we may be doing more harm than good for the plovers by trying to attract them to nest in an area that is naturally not productive for them. We might better their success by discouraging nesting at CHNSRA so that they will emigrate further north to areas where they would naturally have better reproductive success. How does this get glossed over?
Also missing in the USGS report is the little known actions taken by none other than Walker Golder and the NC Audubon during the late 1980's-90 to use audible calls and decoys to encourage the very birds they cite as being in decline to nest on dredge spoils. By simply moving the nesting location a few hundred yards all the birds drawn to the spoils from the park reduce the nesting counts in the park! Little information is available about this action.
This is a disgrace and the "science" should be scrapped. This almost makes "Vogelsong" look credible. Bottom line, the CHNSRA was formed for the people and the management of it should be directed by the people and not some "bird politburo"."
Thanks Denny!

Currently, Belarus is actively engaged in creating an enabling environment for business. The main priority of creating an industrial park on the territory of Belarus is long-term investment cooperation.
The largest investing countries in Belarus are the EU and Russia. To date, 7 thousand companies with foreign capital have been created. They are guaranteed rights and protection under agreements with 60 countries of the world and MIGA (MIGA).
Among the reforming countries Belarus has become the 4th in the world. Over the past 10 years, Belarus has risen to 92 positions: the conditions for opening a business, registration of property, foreign trade, protection of minority investors have significantly improved.
Belarus is on the 24th place in the Global Index of Sustainable Competitiveness (SolAbility) between Japan and Poland.
Belarus is in the TOP-10 countries with a high level of security (index 77.74) and the lowest crime rate (index 22.26) according to Numbeo along with Denmark and Switzerland.
On the level of access to health care, Belarus is on the first positions along with Canada. Medical assistance is provided to citizens of all countries.
Industrial park: Advantageous location
GREAT STONE is located in close proximity to the National Airport of Belarus and the railway. Through the territory of the park is a high-speed M1 / E30 highway with a total length of 5 700 km from Ireland to Siberia. The distance to the seaports of the Baltic is 500 km.
The territory allocated for the Industrial park is 25 km away. from the capital of Belarus - the city of Minsk and covers an area of about 91 sq. km.
GREAT STONE is a key element of the Economic Belt of the Silk Road. It reveals the potential of Belarus as a communication link between the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEC: Belarus, Russia, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan) and the EU.
Industrial park provides an opportunity for duty-free entry to the market of the EEA countries with a capacity of 183 million people. ЕАЭС is a free moving of the goods, services, the capital and a labor. This is the harmonization of legislation, technical and regulatory standards and regulations. This is a free trade agreement with dozens of countries.
The proximity of Belarus to neighboring European countries is a guarantee of a reduction in transportation costs and terms of transportation for the export of goods. On the territory of Industrial park, the largest logistics sub-park is being created ("dry port") (area 100 ha) for providing complex servants: warehouse storage, packing-packing, logistics and trade and exhibition services.
Today the first stage has been realized - warehouses, an exhibition center, an office building, a hotel. The total area of 100 thousand square meters.
Industrial park: Business Opportunities
Highly skilled labor. Over the past 7 years, Belarus has risen from 84 to 31 in the world ICT development rankings. Six Belarusian companies entered the top 100 outsourcers of the world.
The proximity of the capital of Belarus is of strategic importance for the Park. There are 51 universities, 426 colleges, where 0.5 million students are trained annually, which provides the Park with professional staff.
There is no restriction on hiring foreign labor. The preferential rate of personal income tax is 9%.
440 organizations of the capital (26.2 thousand workers) carry out research and development. In Belarus, 1/3 of the employees are engaged in high-end activities.
Industrial park: Privileges and preferences
Priority areas for work in the park: mechanical engineering, electronics, new materials, fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals.
Financing of effective projects can be carried out at the expense of the own Fund of an industrial park.
Investors are invited to conduct business in the absolute comfort zone:
- Free Customs Zone Mode
- Lack of construction certification
- Incentives to attract foreign and Belarusian workers
0% tax
- at a profit
- the property
- land
- dividends
- customs duties
Industrial park operates on the principle of "One Window". This means that in one place are carried out:
- Company registration
- Obtaining licenses (permits)
- Conclusion of the contract for all types of connection of public services (energy, gas, water, sewage, internet, communications)
- Conclusion of the contract of purchase / sale / lease
- Provision of administrative services on all issues
GREAT STONE: New international city
It is an ECO city with comfortable living conditions for 200,000 people. The infrastructure includes industrial facilities, commercial and commercial facilities, scientific and educational centers, cultural and entertainment facilities, sports and recreation facilities, engineering facilities, logistics and warehouses.
The administration of the park provides everything you need:
- land, ready for construction,
- ready-made production premises for rent or property,
- ready-made office space for rent or property,
- construction at the expense of the park according to your requirements,
- communications are brought directly to the site (water supply, water disposal, gas, electricity).
Functional zoning of the first stage of development has already been carried out: industrial objects, a logistics zone, a zone of transport objects, public buildings, multi-apartment buildings, manor buildings.
Today you can visit Belarus and get acquainted with the living and working conditions in our country without a visa (link to the page of the Business Tour).
What do we do here: give the Stone site? http://industrialpark.by

National University of Health Science's professional degree programs are designed to produce "whole health healers." What does this mean if for prospective students comparing various schools?
"First and foremost, whole health healing is patient-centered care," says James F. Winterstein, DC, NUHS president. "We train our chiropractic students to see each patient as a whole person. They learn how to evaluate the full range of factors - physical, mental, situational, and emotional - that influences each patient's health. This is really the only way a physician can make an accurate diagnosis and apply the right treatment or combination of treatments for the best possible outcome with each patient."
Learning to make fully informed medical diagnoses and to employ a wide range of clinically proven treatment modalities is the backbone of what is termed a "broad-scope" chiropractic curriculum. Dr. Winterstein has always championed broad-scope medical training for chiropractic students as opposed to a narrow focus on only spinal health and adjustments.
"A patient who comes in with a headache isn't just a 'head problem.' Neither does that patient automatically need a neck adjustment," says Dr. Winterstein. "A competent chiropractic physician needs the diagnostic skills to evaluate the full range of possibilities that could be causing that patient's headache. They need to consider the total person, as well as the patient's complete health profile and medical history."
"A headache could be caused by something as serious as a brain tumor, or is perhaps a sign of infection in another part of the body, or the result of work-related stress. It even could be caused by a neglected dental problem. A 'whole health physician' has the medical training necessary to ask the right questions and evaluate the total picture before making a diagnosis and treatment plan," Dr. Winterstein illustrates.
In addition to a comprehensive diagnosis, whole health physicians learn how to tap a wide range of treatment options in order to help their patients in the most effective way possible. "A chiropractic physician who sees manual adjustment as the only effective health treatment is like a mechanic with a toolbox that contains only a hammer," says Dr. Winterstein.
A chiropractic student graduating from National, on the other hand, is trained in a wide variety of medical modalities and has a well-stocked 'toolbox'," Dr. Winterstein says. "Our grads are able to employ modern medical diagnostic testing, nutritional assessment and lifestyle counseling, botanical medicine, physical rehabilitation therapy, and a host of other clinically-proven treatment options for the good of their patients. They are also able to work effectively and co-manage patient cases with professionals from other medical specialties when appropriate: MDs, naturopathic physicians, licensed acupuncturists, or massage therapists, for example."
Many patients, especially those with chronic health problems, see vast improvements with a whole health healing approach. Consider the following scenario.
After an hour wait for an X-ray, and seeing her busy HMO doctor for a total of five minutes, Mary with knee pain might leave her HMO clinic with yet another prescription for painkillers and a prognosis of knee replacement surgery down the road. Unhappy with this answer, Mary decides to try a chiropractic physician for a second opinion.
At one of National's Whole Health Centers, Mary would enjoy a completely different experience. After a thorough medical history and interview with her clinician, Mary's clinician might order an X-ray or request previous X-rays from her MD to assess any structural damage to Mary's knee. Mary could receive a series of adjustments and physical therapy if warranted and not contraindicated by the X-rays. Mary might also take home specific nutritional supplements prescribed for her unique condition and a sheet with dietary changes she can make to decrease inflammation and speed the repair of her connective tissue.
Mary's chiropractic physician might schedule her for an appointment with a certified massage therapist to relax the muscle tightness around the affected joint. Her clinician might also suggest acupuncture treatment as a more natural alternative to the prescription painkillers that cause unpleasant stomach pain for Mary. It would be Mary's choice whether to try the acupuncture and to also choose how quickly or slowly she wanted to decrease her pain medication.
Because her chiropractic physician and the entire team at National are dedicated to whole health healing, Mary's treatment program addresses several factors contributing to the root cause of Mary's joint problem, working towards a permanent and positive change - rather than just relieving her pain through harsh drugs.
Noted trends-caster, Gerald Celente, predicts that whole health healing is really the future of medicine, because that's what the consumer will increasingly demand. Celente, who was the featured speaker at National's 2008 Homecoming, observed that, "Chiropractic physicians are uniquely situated to meet the rising demand for whole health healing, because they have the time to establish the real doctor/patient relationship that whole health healing demands."
National University of Health Sciences, once again, is ahead of the trend by pioneering a broad-scope curriculum and clinical care policy that emphasizes "whole health healing" and integrative medicine. With a degree from National, you can be a part of the "whole health healing" revolution, and offer patient-centered care that is truly effective.

Women's World Cup Preview: Group D
Nickname: Canarinha
Current world ranking: 8
Coach: Jorge Barcellos, who previously led the U20s to the bronze medal at the world championship in 2006.
How they qualified: Runners-up to Argentina at the South American qualifying tournament in November 2006.
Past record: Have qualified for every World Cup – the only South American team to do so. Their previous best was a third-place finish in 1999.
Other results: Five-time South American Champions. Silver medalists at the 2004 Olympics.
Why they could win: The Brazilians have a skilful, fluid style of play and have also been working on improving their defence. On the other hand, they also have a relatively young side, and the lack of experience could bring them down.
Key players: Marta, the 2006 FIFA Women's Player of the Year, is essentially the female Ronaldinho. You've all see that YouTube video where she's basically dribbling around players for the fun of it, right? She's complemented up front by the left-footed Cristiane, who scored 12 goals in 7 games during their qualifying campaign, and the veteran Katia, appearing in her third World Cup.
Predicted finish: Quarter-finals
Nickname: Steel Roses
Current world ranking: 11
Coach: Marika Domanski-Lyfors, who formerly coached Sweden, became China's first foreign manager when she took over this spring.
How they qualified: Qualified automatically as hosts, but also won the Asian championship in July 2006.
Past record: Runners-up to the USA in 1999, they were eliminated by Canada in the quarter-finals in 2003.
Other results: Eight-time AFC champions.
Why they could win: China have home-field advantage, which should give them an edge, but on the other hand there's a danger that they could crumble under the weight of expectation. The team will be trying to bounce back after a disastrous performance at the Algarve Cup earlier in the year.
Key players: Striker Han Duan, already a veteran at only 23, is speedy and good in the air. Ma Xiaoxu, another striker, is only 19 but was the AFC Women's Player of the Year in 2006. She won the golden ball and the golden shoe at last year's U20 world championship and is known as "Lady Wayne Rooney" in China – presumably for her goal-scoring prowess rather than any other similarities.
Predicted finish: Quarter-finals
Nickname: Nothing that I could find, but Wikipedia tells me that the men's team are called the "Danish Dynamite," which is…kind of lame, actually
Current world ranking: 6
Coach: Kenneth Heiner-Moller, who took charge last year after previously coaching the women's team at Brondby.
How they qualified: Narrowly won their UEFA qualifying group, with a 6-1-1 record.
Past record: Have made it to the quarter-finals twice, in 1991 and 1995, but failed to qualify in 2003.
Other results: Semi-finalists at Euro 2001; won the silver medal at the Algarve Cup this year.
Why they could win: Denmark have plenty of experience and are solid from back to front. They struggled through qualifying, though, and have never managed to set the world alight at this level.
Key players: Katrine Pedersen in defence, Anne Dot Eggers Nielsen in midfield, and Denmark's top scorer Meret Pedersen up front are the core of the team. They're complemented by attacking midfielder Catherine Paaske Sorensen, who was the top scorer in the Danish league last year.
Predicted finish: First-round elimination
Nickname: Football Ferns
Current world ranking: 23
Coach: John Herdman, who moved up to become the senior team's coach in March after guiding the U20s through the world championships last year.
How they qualified: Easily won the Oceania championship in April 2007, finishing with a +20 goal differential.
Past record: Qualified only once before, back in 1991, when they lost all three group games.
Other results: Not much; they were perennial runners-up in Oceania until Australia moved to the Asian federation.
Why they could win: Let's face it, they probably won't. New Zealand have a relatively young side, leavened by a handful of more experienced players. They'll just be looking to pick up their first points in a World Cup tournament.
Key players: Veteran Maia Jackman, making her first appearance at the World Cup, is a versatile player who can play as a striker, centre back, or right-sided midfielder.
Predicted finish: First-round elimination
Group Predictions
I originally picked Group B as the group of death, but I actually think it's this one, because Group B has the USA as clear favourites whereas here there are three teams all with an pretty equal chance of finishing on top. Denmark are ranked higher than both Brazil and China, but they're the weakest of the three Scandinavian teams and getting out of the group could be tough. I picked Brazil and China to go through, partly just for the sake of balance so that there'd be a South American and an Asian team in the quarter-finals.

…because it is apparently impossible to do this without the internet. I have now been living in my new flat for a month and have only just been connected to the internet. This has made pretty much everything in life more difficult; online banking, paying rent, checking my timetable, finding out what work I have to do and generally communicating with anyone. It seems nothing can be done offline anymore. Having grown up in a household where my Dad can't live without having the latest gadget or best (and most complicated) TV and sound system I feel like I have regressed and seem to reject most forms of technology, mainly because they always seem to malfunction around me. I can't even use the self-checkout machines in Sainsbury's. So, true to form, it has taken me this long to finally get the internet sorted out, thus the blogging, among a million other things, has taken a back seat.
As a result (and because my memory does not go back that far) I've given up on the summer travel blogging. So here follows a series of more disconnected ramblings, hopefully I'll be able to write more often from now on.

Stiller Foundation announces support for Bicycles for Humanity
January 13, 2012 — The Stiller Foundation has announced a partnership with Bicycles for Humanity, an organization founded in 2005 which sends used bicycles to developing countries. These bicycles help communities solve the basic problem of mobility, improving access to education, employment, healthcare, food and water and economic opportunities.
Funds donated by Stiller Foundation will help ship nearly 1,500 bicycles as part of the Karamoja Initiative. Karamoja is a landlocked region in northeastern Uganda with a harsh, arid climate. The Initiative will fund the purchase and transport of three containers of bicycles, tools, and spare parts to Karamoja. The effort is designed to empower disadvantaged communities with their own transportation and the means of maintaining it.
"Karamoja is an incredible place. It is the first place I ever visited in Africa — and I couldn't believe how hard the living conditions were there," said Ben Stiller. "Besides just basic access to food and water, poor transportation systems often mean poor access to education for children in remote areas . Our partnership will hopefully give more kids the opportunity to go to school. I am excited to be working with Paul Sherwen on this, who I have been a fan of for years, and has a long history of going to Karamoja his whole life."
Sherwen, a former cyclist himself and Tour de France broadcaster, grew up in Uganda and has partnered with Bicycles for Humanity. "I am passionate about helping the Karamajong," said Sherwen." I am delighted that Ben has chosen to partner with us. I look forward to working with him to help the children and families of this region gain a better life."
Founded by former technology executive Pat Montani, Bicycles for Humanity is a global grassroots movement which has grown to 35 chapters in 5 countries. "It is so rare in life that we get the chance to really make a difference," said Montani, who hopes to deliver 25,000 bicycles to Karamoja in the next 5 years. "Having visited Karamoja in 2009, Ben truly understands the people and their needs. Paul Sherwen and I are extremely excited to work together with Ben help create change for the people of this region and give the people of Karamoja the gift of mobility."

Gas detection: The benefits of the IIoT
11 September 2017
Exposure to toxic gases is one of the biggest risks workers face, especially those who work remotely and or alone. Prabhu Soundarrajan, global connected worker leader for Honeywell Industrial Safety explains how IIoT technology enables workers to use their smartphone infrastructure to bring connectivity to gas detection devices
In sectors such as downstream oil and gas, workers often have to enter challenging and hazardous environments, namely confined spaces, where they may be exposed to a mix of flammable and toxic gases that can build up very quickly, with fatal consequences. Every year in the UK about 15 people are killed and more are seriously injured while working in confined spaces.
Safety managers have had limited options to protect workers from exposure to toxic gas. Portable gas detectors will warn of a gas emergency but not of biomedical dangers such as abnormal body temperature and blood pressure, which can be early signs of an imminent threat. More importantly, portable gas detectors alert only the worker; safety managers remain unaware of the immediate emergency. A panic button is of limited use if a worker is down and is unconscious or unable to activate the alarm.
Another key challenge for safety managers is ensuring that gas detectors are inspected and maintained on a regular basis and compliant with regulations. Keeping records of all these operations manually can be time consuming and costly. Compliance with worker safety legislation costs the European chemical and petrochemical industries an estimated €2bn/year, which accounts for 24% of the sector's total investment in regulatory compliance.
The opportunity to overcome all these challenges lies in the ability to collect, transfer and analyse data on a worker's health and safety instantly and effectively, which is where the smartphone and connectivity come in.
Bluetooth connectivity now enables a worker to automatically connect their portable gas detector or other device to their smartphone. Wireless connectivity then enables the safety manager to monitor each individual worker's safety closely. It is possible to access critical data such as toxic gas readings, man-down alerts and the worker's location, which are automatically transmitted. In addition to Bluetooth, these devices also support Wi-Fi, Mesh, and GPS wireless communication protocols to ensure that lone workers stay connected even if there is no network coverage.
Armed with intelligent health and safety data, the safety manager can immediately alert a worker operating in a confined space to step out of a dangerous situation or send immediate rescue if a 'man down' alert is received. The data is also stored so that safety managers can run reports on a population of workers, or an individual worker, and monitor their exposure to hazardous substances over time. This is key to tackling ill health before it's too late, with data informing decisions about working patterns so that, for example, a worker's exposure levels over a particular shift are reduced.
The newest generation of portable gas detectors integrates wearable biometric monitors to provide safety managers with comprehensive real-time awareness of the health status of a worker. Intelligent harnesses are able to measure personal vital statistics - such as heart rate, body temperature, breathing rate and posture - and immediately make these available to safety managers via portable wireless transmitters.
A 'connected' approach to gas detection also enables companies to streamline compliance management, helping enhance efficiency and productivity. Some of the latest safety management software platforms simplify configuration, testing and maintenance of portable gas detectors, generating testing, certification, incident and other key reports at a glance. They also feature automated notifications to alert the safety manager if a product certification is expiring and offer a comprehensive view of device health by consolidating calibration, bump test and event data.
To simplify compliance further, smartphone apps enable both safety manager and worker to verify, at a glance, if they have the right permit or training to access a hazardous environment that poses the risk of asphyxiation or exposure to toxic or combustible gases, as is found in a confined space entry.
An advantage of adopting a connected safety approach is its scalability, meaning that it can be applied to safety equipment beyond gas detectors, including PPE.

The Second Graders joined with their Fifth Grade buddies to take part in Ms. Tacktill's series of art and technology field trips. This group went to the Smithsonian American Art Museum contemporary art exhibition. As part of Ms. Tacktill's art literacy and appreciation curriculum, the students went through the exhibit stopping at each piece to share their reactions with each other. The Fifth Graders jotted down the responses into their iPads.
A second learning opportunity had the student teams revisiting the art to view it a second and third time for further reflection. Along the way the Fifth Graders used their photography skills to take photos of the art and of their buddy. They would go on to import the photo of their buddy into an art app on their iPads. They then drew inspiration from the sculpture and mixed media paintings to digitally paint backgrounds around the photo of their buddy.
The Second Graders looked for pattern repetition in the art as they recently studied it with Ms. Tacktill. They then used iPads loaded with a photo of a portion of one of the patterned paintings to expand the patterns. You can see examples of their creative work above and below. Nice work Second Graders!

Each organization has its own Learning Dashboard. If you are an official project leader for GlobalGiving, click on "Learning Dashboard" on the main page of the Project Entry system.
No. Our mission has always been centered on the belief that the single most adaptable, agile force for global change is a local/grassroots organization. We have developed a platform to provide financial resources to those organizations, and now we are merely building upon that platform to provide an equally important resource: learning tools.
At the moment, we already have a system in place called Partner Rewards to assist our partners in improving the quality of their work, and for getting recognition (and more visibility) as a reward for that improvement. However up until now, that has centered on rewarding our partners' effectiveness in raising money and communicating with donors, not in becoming more effective in achieving their mission. We're in the process of evolving that system so that it better maps with the Listen, Act, Learn and Repeat model of lean startups and then we'll work directly with our partners to define exactly what sorts of measures we want to establish for each category. For example, in the area of "listening" (see Listening Model) we can use our platform to provide partners with direct feedback from their community about the impact of specific initiatives they've undertaken (or we can reward them for efforts to gather community feedback outside of our platform), we can establish a way for them to share best practices with other organizations around the world, and, finally, we can expose them to some of the most innovative thinking in the nonprofit sector and help them put that thinking to the test.
We're rolling this out collaboratively in a multi-stage process that looks surprisingly like the the "Listen, Act, Learn. Repeat. model." We have already been listening to what our partners are most hungry for, so we are going to begin by acting:
1. We're demonstrating the "Listen, Act, Learn. Repeat." model in action —We're introducing what startup companies call a "minimum viable product" by simply restructuring our existing process-improvement and reward system so that it better map itself toward the Listen, Act, Learn, Repeat model. This Beta-tool (version 0.1) will obviously provide only a small fraction of the learning tools we will ultimately need to provide, as the majority of of it will center on fundraising performance, but we believe it is important to begin now, so that we can prove the concept and hone it with partner feedback.
2a. Gather feedback from partners on the kinds of learning tools they are most hungry for— We'll continue to conduct webinars, online forums and specific person-to-person interviews to gather feedback from you about just what kinds of measures, incentives and promotions you most need to adapt to and live by this model.
2b. Seek the wisdom of best-of-class peers in the sharing of best practices and the implementation of progressive theories— As we are getting feedback from our partners, we will also solicit feedback from our peers and colleagues on the best ways to implement online sharing of best practices, and how to aggregate well-vetted content that proposes leading-edge theories on the best way to achieve a lasting impact.
3. Revise our learning tools artner Rewards incentive system to better reflect what we have learned —Once we have collected enough feedback to create a 1.0 version of our Learning Dashboard, we will make appropriate modifications to the existing tool set so that it reflects what we have learned. Then, we'll incorporate some of the key metrics from the Learning Dashboard into the Partner Rewards structure to ensure that the organizations who best demonstrate their own performance improvement will be the ones who garner higher visibility on the website. This will be our first step towards directing more of the funds in the marketplace to the higher-performing organizations; those organizations performing better than they were before because they've Listened, Acted, Learned, and Repeated.
4. Rollout version 1.0, go back to step 1 —Using precisely the same methodology, we will continue to roll out consecutive versions of the learning tools. We don't expect this process to ever end. Instead we will offer increasingly better versions driven by real feedback to assure we are providing the best tools for the most adaptive and agile organizations to live up to their potential.
Great. Please share! Email your feedback to email@example.com.

Children's Center
In February 2018, Lakefront Wellness Center designated the third floor of our branch office in Oconomowoc as the Children's Center. We offer a carefully designed play therapy room and a kid friendly waiting room. The play therapy room is set up for painting, arts and crafts, therapeutic games, dolls, etc.
Play Therapy
It may be helpful to show these photos to your child before the initial meeting to help ease some anxiety about coming to talk to someone.
Play Therapy is to kids what counseling or talk therapy is to adults. Children use play as their natural language and the toys are their words. Play therapy allows a child to change the way they think about, feel toward, and resolve their concerns.
Play Therapy is effective for a wide variety of problems or concerns that affect or will affect the way a child functions at home, at school, or in the community. Psychotherapists can be specially trained to strategically use play and specific toys to address a child's needs when the child does not have the verbal language to express their thoughts and feelings.
Play Therapy is especially appropriate for kids ages 3-12. For older kids and teens, play provides a safe distance from problems and allows expression of thoughts and feelings. Play techniques for older kids and teens include sand tray therapy, expressive arts (painting, drawing, creating, sculpting, acting, singing), or activity therapy (constructing, building, balls, games, etc.) The Play Therapy room is equipped with specific items that facilitate cognitive and emotional processing and development.
What can play therapy do for my child?
- Develop responsibility for behaviors
- Develop problem solving skills
- Learn to communicate with others
- Develop respect and acceptance of self and others
- Stimulate creative thinking and exploration
- Express emotion
- Relieve stress
- Cultivate empathy
- Enhance social skills
- Develop assuredness about personal abilities
Testing Center and Resource Library
In January 2018, Lakefront Wellness Center updated the resource library and testing center housed on the second floor of Oconomowoc Branch. The resource library is now Dr. Beth Johnson's office. It makes it convenient for her to host family therapy, continuing education and staff meetings. We also host groups and parent educational meetings in the Resource Library.

Photographer: Evolved Images
The clients for this project are long established publicans in the historic Adelaide hills town of Hahndorf. With The Haus, they wanted to create an environment in which people would enjoy the very best of local produce and wine within an inviting, multipurpose surrounding. Giving reference to Hahndorf's unique past in a contemporary context, Enoki worked with Anni Luur Fox who created six stories depicting the life, food and culture of the area's first settlers. These stories were then converted into illustrations which are used throughout the space to tell a visual story and to assist in creating the different zones within the establishment.
The look and feel is relaxed, yet high end and quite unique. This is realized by using the existing core elements of the site - rustic red brick, timber ceilings and trusses - and offsetting them with new elements of dark timber walls, counter paneling, concrete bench tops and hearths, tessellated tiles, charcoal carpet and 25 of Enoki's Cumulus pendants which float above the diners. The dispersed black stenciled graphics create a strong yet subtle detail, allowing the patrons themselves to provide the colour.

The camp of of Floyd Mayweather Jr. is reportedly seeking a random, Olympic style drug testing for their fighter and seven division champion Manny Pacquiao in the run up to their targeted March 13 super fight.
Pacquiao's trainer Freddie Roach said he has no problem with the dope tests since Team Pacquiao "has nothing to hide" and added that this indicates Mayweather's fear of the Filipino ring icon's power, which has remained lethal as he climbs in weight.
I think its right to do those testing just to settle things about this substance issues. But i think its also an insult to Manny Pacquiao of having been accusing him of taking substance. Let those test start, finish the result so we the fans can watch what is billed to be the most awaited fight for next year.

Clamorworld Special: Bottlenecks & Challenges For Businesses In India
The GES or the Global Entrepreneur Summit 2017 in India is set to provide a fresh lease of life to the Make in India drive and entrepreneurship opportunities in the country. Perhaps that is what makes it an appropriate opportunity to truly assess the business opportunities in our country and the bottlenecks that businesses deal with.
Experts see the scope of the Indian economy growing at a phenomenal pace. McKinsey even quotes the figure of $10 trillion and more. Of course, none of this will happen overnight but the sheer potential indicates the extent of scale up possible. Reforms may not be executed in a ;perfect manner but the solace is that all of these are steps are in right direction replete with options.
Participation in businesses are seen as a major factor. Compared to India, the participation rate in China is much higher. But veterans in this field say it is only a matter of time. Once you can get 400 million Indians into the system with proper bank accounts and smart phones, the dynamics could change overnight. Once inducted, globalisation of Indian companies is expected to be way simpler, given the large number of successful Indians doing business globally.
In India, statistics indicate that the consumption shock after last year's demonetisation is also on the mend. Therefore the economy is progressing more towards attaining the crucial balance between consumption and savings. The other big trigger from the demonetisation drive has been a stronger push towards digitisation. This assimilation of data via Aadhar linkages, GST tracking and other means can surely give a competitive edge to India. In many ways it can make data analytics a lot more dependable.
The fact that most rating agencies have maintained a stable to positive bias towards India also speaks a lot in favour of India. As the GES 2017 gets underway, it needs to be remembered that in just 3 years Indian has jumped 42 places and is ranked 100 now in the World Bank's Ease of Doing Business Report. Prime Minister Modi, in his speech mentioned, "We have improved on indicators like dealing with construction permits, getting credit, protecting minority investors, paying taxes, enforcing contracts and resolving insolvency." In fact, over 90 million loans worth Rs 4.28 trillion have been sanctioned by the centre under the Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana, of which 70 million have gone to women.
So it now needs to be seen how businesses can take advantage of these changes and improvements in ground realities across India.

Antique miniature toy pitcher with rouletted rim beading, rough chipped clay coating, three precisely applied cobalt dark blue bands and other refined features not typically seen together on common utilitarian yellowware vessels (aka yellow ware or yelloware; see all Photos). Each of these features and others are discussed in more detail below. And while this small yellowware pitcher has no makers marks or potters names much like the vast majority of yellowware vessels produced before 1900, its ovoid shape and special refined attributes indicate that it is British and is from the 1800 to 1840 period, hence the c1820 mid-date. As such, this little pitcher is one of the earlier examples of British yellowware and would have been produced as a gift or special treat for an adult or child as some local potteries actively sought to broaden their marketing interests.
First and most notably, this little pitcher is just 2 7/8 inches tall and, therefore, it is too small to be of practical use in a tea service or dessert service. For that reason, some collectors have placed small pitchers measuring less than 3 1/2 inches tall in the miniature or toy category (e.g., see Lisa S. McAllister's 'Collector's Guide to Yellow Ware published in 2000 by Collector Books, Paducah, KY; page 120). Additionally, early miniature pitchers were made to be precise replicas of their full size cousins. In particular, certain features are informative and provide insight on the approximate age of an example. The shape of the handle and how it is attached to the side of the pitcher along with the shape of the spout, overall body form, foot ring style and even how the underside of the base is shaped are, in fact, more important than the presence of certain decorative treatments when assessing the age of manufacture for a pitcher whether it is full size or miniature.
Several important features make this yellowware toy pitcher stand out among early 1800s English miniature pottery. These decorative attributes include a wide band of applied angular coarse sand-size clay chips (also regarded as a version of encrusted decoration, see Photos 2, 3), a stylish up-swept pouring spout (Photo 1), a rim accented with rouletted beading (Photos 3, 6), precisely applied blue bands (Photos 1, 3, 6), a well proportioned rolled foot (more accurately a rounded foot, see Photos 4, 7, 8), a perfectly formed strap handle with cleanly cut end terminals (Photos 3, 4, 7), an elegant oviform shape (Photos 1, 4), and white clay slipped interior (Photos 5, 9). Altogether, it is the refined quality of these special features that remove this pitcher from simple utilitarian categories or functions. In fact, if this was a full size pitcher, its decoration, shape and delicate features would be welcomed in many formal setting in the 1810 to 1830 period except when Chinese blue & white export porcelain was the primary tableware.
Common yellowware clays have a long history in Great Britain and involve buff or light yellowwish-tan clays low in iron mineral content so that the clay appear yellow, beige- yellow or tan under a transparent glaze after firing. Initially, however, the native clay excavated for common British yellowware vessels was processed in a less refined manner than contemporary creamware or pearlware clays. This difference is often visually evident in the semi-coarse buff clays used by local English potters to produce common yellowware vessels especially when a chip or break exposed the body. One of the earliest buff bodied British yellowware ceramic traditions first emerged in the 1670s when a white slipped surface was decorated with slip trailed, dotted and combed brown slip and then covered with a golden yellow lead glaze to produce visually stunning patterns (for several examples of early buff ware British pottery shown in color, see Sotheby's Catalogue for the Auction of the Harriet Carlton Goldweitz Collection, held January 20, 2006: page 50 for Lot 17, pages 70-71 for Lot 37, etc.,).
The little pitcher listed here is covered with a transparent grayish blue tinged glaze that also has a slight greenish cast, too. The glaze is best described as an early yellowish lead glaze that has had cobalt added to it pursuant to many pre-1830 glaze formulas. This distinctive color of the glaze is most evident on the inside of the pitcher where the white slipped interior appears gray with a slight greenish-blue tinge (this is somewhat evident in Photos 5 and 9). The glaze also exhibits some coarse crazing especially where it is thickest. As a result, the wide blue band along the neck appears darker blue than typically anticipated along with a slight greenish tinge (see all Photos).
Other notable physical features on this small pitcher include a rounded foot protruding outward along the edge of the base than continues under the base and turns into a broad angled inner foot ring leading up to a tall recessed bottom beneath the pitcher (see Photos 7 and 8). This foot ring style and its associated recessed basal underside are important temporal attributes that when found in association with an oviform body, up-swept spout and knife cut handle terminal ends help place this pitcher in the 1800 to 1840 period. Rouletted designs along rims, necks and bodies was a common decorative motif on pearlware and creamware, especially those in the Mocha and Banded traditions from this same time frame (e.g., see Jonathan Rickards' 'Mocha and Related Dipped Wares 1770-1939, published in 2006 by the University Press of new England, Hanover N.H.).
Rouletted beading was used on creamware vessels in the 1770s and continued forward to adorn pearlware and yellowware vessels up through mid 1800s. Bands and broad surface coatings of tiny angular pieces of crushed fired clay have been a special decorative method used by British potters since at least the 1740s when it occurs on salt-glazed stoneware teapots and animal figurine jars and jugs (see Sotheby's Catalogue for the Auction of the Harriet Carlton Goldweitz Collection, held January 20, 2006: page 101 for Lot 65 where a chipped clay encrusted Teapot from c1740-50 is described, or page 105, Lot 72 where a chipped clay encrusted Bear Jug with cover from about 1750 is shown; another bear jug or jar is shown on page 84 in Diana Edwards and Rodney Hampson's treatise on 'White Salt-Glazed Stoneware of the British Isle', published in 2005 by the Antique Collector's Club). Several British pearlware vessels decorated with crushed clay chips adhering to their exterior are illustrated in Jonathan Rickards' 'Mocha and Related Dipped Wares 1770-1939 (published in 2006 by the University Press of new England, Hanover N.H.). One is a pearlware jug with two rouletted rim bands from about 1790 (also called encrusted ware) is shown on pages 104-105, and 167 (Ibid.), and the other is a half-round pearlware bough pot with blue bands from about 1800 (Ibid.). Last of all, Edwards and Hampson (2006: pg 126) also illustrate a Canary yellow glazed tea set (teapot, sugar bowl and creamer) decorated with rouletted beading, white slip, and an inlaid marbled band assigned a French production origin (see Ibid. Pg 129).
Finally, there is applied clay decoration present on some mid 1800s American yellowware pieces, too. However, these examples have extruded clay strands rather than crushed clay fragments and occurs on Lions and Figurines from the 1840s and 1850s. These potters used pieces of extruded wet clay apparently created by forcing the clay through coarse burlap. The term 'coleslaw' has been used to describe this kind of applied decoration and it consist of short one quarter inch long strands added to simulate fur while the clay strands were still wet and pliable. Photos of two examples from the Shenandoah Valley in the eastern US are shown in William Wiltshire III's book 'Folk Pottery of the Shenandoah Valley' (see pages 26-27 and pages 36-37).
In summary, the small yellowware pitcher offered for sale here is both early and has special features that narrow its production date to the early to mid 1800s, hence the c1800 to 1840 time frame as noted above. Yellowware pitchers produced after 1840 become increasing less refined, seldom exhibit rouletting, display cruder banding, typically have either thicker/cruder handles or Victorian-style handles with flourishes, and were overwhelmingly designed to fulfill basic utilitarian purposes. Chipped clay encrusted pitchers produced in the late 1800s have cruder handles, lack rouletting and have poorly applied banding, if present at all. In that regard, post 1850 common yellowware vessels were relegated to many common utilitarian functions such as basic food preparation and storage, tavern needs (mugs, tankards, jugs . . . ), cooking/baking purposes, etc., and not refine tablewares and teawares. In contrast, the little pitcher offered here is graceful with its beaded rim band reminiscent of the best beaded Staffordshire creamware teawares first produced back in the 1770s.
So if you are looking for a rather rare antique miniature yellowware pitcher that can still be used today as long as one is very careful, then make sure you seriously consider this chipped clay coated yellowware pitcher while it is still available. And as always, this antique pitcher also comes with my Docs Antiques 100% satisfaction guarantee or you may return it using my return policy (see complete Return Policy details farther below).

SIZE & CONDITION: This small pitcher stands about 2 7/8 inches tall, measures about 2 5/8 inches across at its belly, and has a maximum measurement of 3 3/8 inches across at its widest part from outermost handle edge to outermost spout lip (see Photo 1). The pitcher weighs just about 3 oz empty and has a maximum capacity of about 113 ml. The pitcher is in very good condition with no hairlines, major stains, deep scratches, repairs or restoration. There is a tiny flea bite size glaze chip less than 1/16 inch across on the spout that is hard to see (see Photo 5), a small 1/4 inch chip along the edge of the handle (a red pen points to the handle chip in Photo 9) and a small internal glaze fissure along the rim near the handle (fissure pointed out by a black pen in Photo 9). Production defects are minor and limited to a few pieces of chipped clay on the interior of the vessel (see Photo 9 for tiny clump inside the vessel) and under the base (see Photo 7) along with a small patch of dry body (unglazed surface) under the base (a black pen points to the unglazed patch under the base in Photo 8). But in the end, this little pitcher is in very good condition as all the Photos help illustrate. Of course, if the buyer is not completely satisfied, then she/he may return the pitcher for a refund (see our complete return policy for all details as stated below).

iPhone 6 Screen Replacement when Broken
It is frustrating when your iPhone 6's screen breaks. You definitely need iPhone 6 screen replacement; but, how much does it cost?
iPhone 6 Screen Replacement Cost by Apple Store
You must be happy when having the new iPhone 6, but before you get the iPhone case, you should carefully grip your phone not to break it. However, it doesn't mean that your phone is already safe, some accident might occur and you might not be able to avoid it; when the phone gets damaged, especially on the screen part, Apple will help for the reparation and replacement; but, how much money that you should spend if you need to replace or repair the damage on your iPhone 6?
Having your iPhone 6's screen cracking might not be comfortable for you when using the phone; rather than looking for the iPhone 6 screen replacement kit, why don't you try bringing this to Apple? For you who have your iPhone 6 Plus' screen damaged, the price for the reparation has increased to around $130 while for your iPhone 6, the cost will be around $110. That's why people would choose to get the insurance for their iPhones, like AppleCare+ that will give the coverage even though you still need to pay around $79 for the service.
The cost could indeed be expensive for the iPhone 6 screen replacement part and problems related to the battery because AppleCare+ doesn't cover both issues. If the two incidents occur to your iPhone 6, the cost for the service should be paid around $79. Therefore, there will be the price escalation if either the fault has no coverage under 1-year warranty or the handset is already out of warranty.
Although you can find the guide and tools which available to purchase when you crack your iPhone 6's screen, it is better to have yours repaired by the Apple itself or covered by the insurance unless you are handy enough. Keep your iPhone 6 very well so you won't crack the screen and pay for the costly iPhone 6 screen replacement.

If you are looking for an absolute and air-tight legal answer to this situation, there isn???t one.?? Yet it seems reasonable to conclude that an impromptu movie gathering???not advertised in advance, with no elaborate planning and certainly no admission fee, realistically attended only by the dorm residents who frequent that particular lounge???would not be a public performance.?? Showing the movie should be okay.?? Enjoy the vampires.
