Never have I enjoyed shoe shopping. I mean, I've always LOVED having a new pair of shoes (I'd basically sleep in them when I was little, or put them on first thing in the morning), but shopping for them was always hell. I didn't like most of them, they were all boring. I'd always gravitate to the hot pink ankle boots or insane platform sandals that were always too big for me, but I begged for anyway. I still think most general shoe stores are boring, but luckily we still have ONLINE SHOPS! They don't make deciding on a new pair much easier though..
I've been drooling over lolita shoes for a while now, and I finally want to make up my mind as to which ones I want to save some money for. I just can't decide! At first the pink ones with the bows were on the top of my list, but now I also really like the black platform ones without the bows. They'd also go with more outfits, BUT their platform is even higher *_* First world problems, I know. This is basically one of those things I worry about when I wake up at 6 am and sip my first cup of green tea of the day.
|sparkle sparkle magical shoes!
I could also get the boots, since summer will soon be over and I never had boots/decent fall/winter shoes before. Not sure if you can call platform lolita boots decent though hehe n.n Which ones are your favorite? Do you have any other awesome pairs/online shops to share with me (and make it even more difficult to decide)?

Andrew Peterson. One of my favorite songwriters, will be releasing a NEW album on July 17th, 2010 entitled "Counting Stars."
Words cannot express my excitement and anticipation. I have no doubt that it will be one of the best albums of the year.
"Nashville is a town that attracts a lot of guys with guitars. On any given afternoon you'll see them on the sidewalks, in the clubs, wandering around music row. You can't miss them at the downtown Greyhound station and at the airport baggage claim. You see them lugging their instruments into and out of dozens of hotel and motel parking lots, packing them into the back seats of cars with out-of-state plates and driving off somewhere in the service of a paper-thin dream. And there's always an attendant note of sadness because somehow, the picture always seems so transient, so unrooted. It's almost as if Woody Guthrie were the patron saint of troubadours and the cost of entry into the guild is that you first have to be willing to leave your wife and kids and light out for parts unknown in the name of some abstract notion of freedom, repeating in some form for the rest of your life the sad, weary mantra that Tom Waits first opined: It was a train that took me away from here, but a train can't bring me home."

Sansa slotMusic Player Review
- Details
- Category: MP3 and Portable
- Published: Thursday, 16 October 2008 02:21
The slotMusic player does not support DRM files. In fact there's no way to connect to a PC to synchronize files anyway. This isn't a big deal since most online services are selling DRM free music.
We used a USB to microSD adapter to load a bunch of music on a slotMusic card with an extra 700MB of space on it. So figure about an 250 songs total on a 1GB card. The cool thing is you can simply keep your favorite mixes on separate cards. Managing playlists and large pools of music on one player is very cumbersome for the non tech savvy. Keeping track of the cards will be an issue, although SanDisk tells us they have a plethora of card management solutions in the works. We'll see how this evolves.
I know my sister will appreciate something like this. She still hasn't updated her playlist on her iPod. Too complicated she says. If somebody doesn't do it for her it just doesn't happen. At least with this she could buy some music and load it herself.
Visit Sansa for more information on the slotMusic player and the whole music on a microSD card thing.

After eight months in transit, and more than a year in planning, the container has arrived from BC!
Everything in the container was donated or purchased to send to help with the set up of the new trade school barn by CRMF, packed and coordinated by Jack Stephanyk and his friends in BC, who have come with two work teams here in the last couple years. Special thanks to Norm Stork, who donated the bobcat and little tractor.
The container itself was donated by the Big Steel Box people. It has been waiting to clear customs in Kiev for months, after being stick in transit for a few weeks after arriving in Poland, where it was unloaded and inspected there, too. Some of the contents disappeared before Garry, Victor and Max went there Monday, after finally getting the phone call from the import company. This was the humanitarian organization import company that was found to work with the company in Canada. Importing this container was the main reason we left Word of Hope and formed Hope for Each as our Ukrainian humanitarian organization, because they were worried about possible problems with it.
Garry and Victor had to negotiate with the company in Kiev about what they would get for the 30% of the cargo promised to them for acting as our agent on Monday. and they got some of everything. Most importantly we got the farm equipment to use for the school farm, and even some stuff for the students, like winter coats, some mattresses and bicycles to ride to work (the girls from the far house want to learn how to ride them).
Garry is really excited that the table saw made it, it will be so useful for next year's renovation project, there were so many things we could have used one for, but he couldn't even find a decent one to buy. Anyway, we are amazed "the box" finally made it here! Thanks to everyone who made it possible.

Wicked SaintsBlues / Rock / R&B
Up here from L.A.! Wicked Saints is an acoustic folk-rock/americana band with a cool range of songs that lets all the influences in. From a swampy Louisiana groove to reggae styled pop/blues, a driving beat, or sweet and heartfelt.
Singer/songwriter Paul McCarty sings lead, and plays guitar and harmonica. He was raised in a musical family in the musical city of New Orleans, and was a music composition major in college with a background in indie film scoring. Although folk-influenced, his songs seek stranger directions melodically, harmonically and lyrically, sometimes drawing upon his childhood influences like Neil Young, Gordon Lightfoot and Led Zeppelin, and sometimes resorting to some college-knowledge.
Bobby Thomas was originally a loaner from the band, The Heatseekers and plays piano and accordion. Bobby and Paul played a Genghis Cohen show together and Paul decided he must become a Wicked Saint. Wicked Saints' legal team, scoured the loan contract and found a loophole which allowed them to keep Bobby forever, at no additional cost. It was worth it.
Bobby loves to lay low, but he's not hiding. He's lurking in the shadows of his fedora hat, waiting for the perfect moment to ambush you with an accordion swell.
Drummer John Gannon has an impressive dynamic presence. He gives the band a real range of character, from a cool groove with a light touch, a train-beat, or a strong Bonhamesque beat. But hand him a guitar and he'll tell you a story of his own. Honed from years of campfire singing, John brings a great energy to the microphone and holds your attention. John's narratives might leave you laughing or bring a tear to a glass eye.
We've recorded our debut album at Milestone Recording in Los Angeles, produced by Annie Miles and at Wilmac Studio in Altadena, produced by Paul McCarty and David Williams.

An update on singer Sarah Brightman's space tourism trip to the International Space Station (ISS) next year:
British famed soprano singer Sarah Brightman would begin pre-flight trainings for her journey to the International Space Station (ISS) as a space tourist early next year, instead of this autumn, Yuri Lonchakov, the head of the Russia's Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Centre, said on Wednesday.
"She will begin trainings in the Star City in January of 2015 and therefore we are all waiting for her," Lonchakov said adding that he believed "her training will be a success."
Less than three months ago Lonchakov said that the famous singer had already passed a number of medical examination and tests and was ready to begin preparations for the trip to the ISS at the Star City space training facility in the Moscow Region in September or October.
Lonchakov's earlier statement that Brightman could start her trainings this autumn was also confirmed in June by the president of the US-based company in charge of organizing her trip.

IT is fair to say that trips to Everton throughout the sixties and early seventies had a certain edge as far as Leeds United were concerned.
Heading the list is the famous Battle of Goodison Park, the 50th anniversary of which arrived last month.
The game saw Leeds triumph 1-0 with a tinderbox encounter starting off with the dismissal in the fourth minute of home player Sandy Brown for punching Johnny Giles.
It was the first act in the most ugly of clashes, with the referee marching both teams off the pitch at one point so that players and fans could cool down.
It was an occasion which drew strong comment from legendary Observer sports writer John Arlott, who labelled it as an 'unhappy day for English football' on an afternoon when the tackles were sharp and the spittle venomous.
Back in December 1970, United also headed to the blue side of Merseyside and also came away with a 1-0 win, the anniversary of that particular success arriving on Friday and it was another game which had a distinct amount of needle.
Reigning champions Everton, managed by Harry Catterick, had travelled to Elland Road in the first month of the campaign, fully playing their part in an enthralling encounter, which saw Leeds prevail 3-2, thanks to goals from Billy Bremner (2) and Giles in front of almost 47,000 fans.
But the first third of the season had seen the Blues' title defence crumble, while Leeds, on the other hand, represented the real deal.
While Leeds' line-up was settled and strong, Everton's side was starting to break apart with Goodison legends such as Gordon West and Brian Labone replaced by Andy Rankin and Roger Kenyon and other ageing senior players also stepping down.
Leeds headed to Goodison with a powerhouse league record, their previous Division One defeat arrived at Stoke back on September 12.
That was Leeds' only defeat in 22 league matches thus far in 1970-71, with Revie's side heading to Everton with a two-point lead over Bertie Mee's Arsenal, while the Blues languished in 12th place.
In the early stages of the fixture, it was clear tensions were high, with memories harkening back to November 1964.
That was obvious by the fact that Leeds saw Norman Hunter and Mick Jones handed cautions, with home player Alan Whittle also seeing his name entered into the busy referee's notebook.
A fractious encounter prevailed, with the quality of football negligible with many among the disappointed crowd resorting to booing and slow-handclapping the teams as the game went on.
But any of the football played came from Leeds, with Bremner pulling the strings in midfield and putting Alan Ball and Colin Harvey firmly in the shade and Jack Charlton imperious at the back.
It was Charlton who netted the only goal of the game in the 10th minute when Giles supplied Peter Lorimer, whose right-wing cross found Jones, whose cushioned header invitingly fell into the path of the big defender.
And it was enough to enable Leeds to secure their first double of the campaign.
In 'they shall not pass' mode at the back, Leeds' resilience kept out the hosts, while whenever the Blues got through, they failed to break the resistance of Gary Sprake.
The weekend of December 19, 1970 saw United's nearest rivals Arsenal triumph 3-1 at Old Trafford to further confirm to everyone that the title was a two-horse race.
It set things up rather nicely for Boxing Day, when Leeds overpowered Newcastle United 3-0 in front the Elland Road faithful, courtesy of an Allan Clarke strike and two penalties from Giles to open up a three-point lead over the Gunners, who had been pegged back in a 0-0 home draw with Southampton.
Leeds United On This Day
47 years ago: Eddie Gray netted the only goal of the game as Leeds United triumphed 1-0 against Hibernian at Elland Road in the first leg of their Fairs Cup third round tie. The winger struck a rebound after just four minutes after Willie Watson saved his strike.
46 years ago: United enjoyed a red-letter night in Europe, hitting five goals past German outfit Hannover 96 at Elland Road. Peter Lorimer led the way with a brace with further goals arriving from Mike O'Grady, Norman Hunter and Jack Charlton.
18 years ago: In a tough decade, United suffered a real low point with an embarrassing 7-2 drubbing at Stoke City's Victoria Ground. Billy Bremner refused to dress the result up after the game, admitting he was 'ashamed' of his side.
15 years ago: A marvellous performance from David O'Leary's young Leeds side saw them account for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge with a classy 2-0 victory. Goalscoring hero for the Whites, who came up against future manager Dennis Wise and assistant-boss Gus Poyet, was Stephen McPhail, pictured, who hit a rare double.

|The Honda Bay postcard I bought in Palawan.
Palawan is one of the best tourist destinations in the Philippines because of different natural wonders such as limestone formation of caves, diverse flora and fauna, verdant mountains, lush rainforests, fine beaches and tropical blue waters of the sea. In addition, it is an ideal place for your summer getaway because of the clean environment, beautiful tourist spots, and the abundance of natural resources in the island province.
I got back from a trip to Palawan last year where we visit some of the tourist attractions in the province. One of the places we visited was Honda Bay. It is an ideal venue for island hopping and snorkeling. In addition, this place is known for white sand beaches, the blue and crystal clear water and the richness of marine creatures in the bay. Honda Bay is located 12 kilometers east of Puerto Princesa City and composed of several islands within the area. The bay is used for commercial fisheries and recreation. Boats can be rented in Sta. Lourdes wharf in Brgy. Tagbanua, Puerto Princesa City. These boats can be used for travel to nearby islands, many less than 45 minutes from the shore by boat.
Sailing across the Honda Bay.
During our island hopping in Honda Bay, we visit two islands and one diving spot. Our first stop is in Pambato Reef where corals are abundant in this area. According to other travel blogs, there is a huge fish density and underwater visibility in this diving area. I wanted to see the coral reefs during that time, but I was afraid to go in the reef because I don't have enough experience to swim in the deeper part of the bay. Besides, there are tourists who injured because of corals. So you need to be careful in swimming and do not step the corals.
|The colorful school of fish in the shallow reef of Snake Island.
After forty-five minutes, we proceed to Snake Island. This place is known not because there are many snakes in the island, but it is named for the shape of the island which looks like a slithering snake. We spent for almost one hour and enjoyed our stay in the island covered with mangrove trees. First, we saw a lot of tiny fish with white and brown colors in the part of the bay that almost reaches the shore. Besides, I had a lot of fun in snorkeling. But the most unforgettable encounter in this island happened in fish feeding. It was a surreal experience because there are schools of fish with bright colors of black, white, blue and yellow were surrounding around me. Also, there are two to three medium-sized fish wants to join the group in feeding the bread crumbs. While waiting for our lunch, I saw a small crab with a shell in its back (I think it's a hermit crab). I try to look at this crab and touch its shell until it runs fast and hides in a small hole in the sand. Then, we had our lunch and picture taking in this island. Also, my sisters and friends helped the pasalubong vendors in making accessories and souvenirs.
|The sandy seashore of Starfish Island.
|The lucid and tropical water of the bay from Starfish Island.
|The fine white sand, rocky reef, and clear water teemed with starfish.
|The circle of starfish.
Our last stop is in Starfish Island. When we landed in the island, it was amazing because of fine white sand and clear water that teemed with the numerous starfish scattered in the shallow reef of the bay. We spend our time there through taking photographs and walking in the seashore to discover other creatures aside from starfish. In addition, there are plenty of empty and white shells which look like a dollar coins. These creatures are called sand dollars. In fact, these sand dollars are color brown when they were living. We also found a dead starfish, decaying in the shore. They died due to continuously crawling to the beach which is a dry place and out of the water. Because of what we saw, we decided to save some starfish in the shore by getting them back to the bay in order to live longer. You need to become cautious also because there are stonefish found in this island. They are able to camouflage which looks like a rock under the sea. But, if you attacked by this creature, your whole leg up to your thigh would be numb and be in intense pain. We also continued our fish feeding but there are few fish with colors of brown and white fed the bread crumbs and stay away; unlike in other islands where there are colorful schools of fish.
|A place similar to the Exile Island in hit reality series Survivor.
|Lu-li Island
|Taking a glimpse of the bay before we go back to the wharf.
Therefore, there are other islands in Honda Bay which are interesting to visit due to its peculiar and exotic features. There are islands which are known for the richness of marketable creatures such as Canon or Cowrie Island where you can found many cowrie shells in the shore and Señorita Island which serves as a breeding site of lapu-lapu fish. We also have Lu-li Island which coined from the first syllables of two Tagalog words Lulubog meaning sinking and Lilitaw which means showing up, where one part of this island is sinking during high tide. Also there are islands named after a flying mammal and an endemic plant. These islands are Bat Island where it is the home of fruit bats that coming out of holes during sundown for their evening feed and Pandan Island where it is named after a native plant found in the island and an ideal place for snorkeling. Lastly, we have islands known for its resorts like the Arreceffi Island where you can found the Dos Palmas Resort and Meara Marina Island where you can have your overnight stay in this island because of its resort.
This island trekking experience is exciting and relaxing because you will appreciate the abundance of natural resources, the beauty of the islands and the captivating scenery of the bay. If I were given a chance to come back to Palawan, I want to complete my island trekking experience in Honda Bay in order to explore the uniqueness of every island and the panoramic beauty of the bay.

All About You is a Christ centered salon and day spa that opened its doors in 2002 by Patsy and Shannon Tucker, who also happen to be mother and daughter. It's not everyday that you find a Christ based establishment, so when it was recommended to me by a gal in my LifeGroup, I knew I had to check it out. So I made a hair appointment, and after browsing their website, found out they also do facial treatments, hair removal, nails, massage therapy and wedding preparations.
It was an early Saturday morning when I went to get my hair done, but I found myself so eager to get out the car to head on inside to my hair appointment. When I opened the door and got inside, I was greeted by a lady at the front desk and couldn't believe at how bright and cheerful everything and everyone was. I signed in, put my jacket and purse down and found myself wandering around looking at the jewelry they had setup by the front door and the wall of Bumble and Bumble hair products they had on display.
My experience was amazing and my expectations were met to the T right from the start. My stylist Heather was the best, and come to find out we both go to Forest Hill Church! It's easy to say I enjoyed my first Charlotte hair appointment a little to much! If you are in the area, you MUSTTTT check this place out! I can pretty much promise that you won't be let down.
*NOTE - I was in no way compensated for this post. The words and opinions are all my own.

Decision looms for West Byron
CRUNCH time on West Byron is fast approaching with the State's decision makers holding two public panels soon in Mullumbimby to decide the fate of the two developments planned for just outside Byron Bay.
Ahead of the sessions Byron Resident's group is urging opponents of the development to rally at 10am on Sunday June 17 in Apex Park near the Byron Surf Club.
The two Development Applications (DAs) seek to subdivide West Byron into 687 residential lots, including some in environmental zones, and will be decided by the States Joint Regional Planning Panel because they are worth more than $20million.
"It is not an overstatement to say that the Joint Regional Planning Panel (JRPP) will be deciding the future of our town," said Cate Coorey for Byron Residents' Group.
"The impacts of a mega-suburb being approved at West Byron - on this town, its residents and its ecology - are enormous. The increased traffic congestion would make Ewingsdale Road impossible and result in the damaging of tourism and local business. It would spell the end of our koala population and the threatened frog species on the site.
"The time is now. The JRPP needs to understand that the only people who benefit from West Byron are the developers as it will give nothing to the town but take away so much. It won't even deliver affordable housing.
"If people want to help with the rally they should email: firstname.lastname@example.com"
Those wishing to address the Planning Panel at a public meeting must register with the Secretariat before the meeting.
For more information call 02 8217 2060 or email firstname.lastname@example.com
The JRPP meeting are being held on Tuesday 19 June at the Mullumbimby Civic Hall.
Session times: 3.00pm - 5.30pm (both development applications) and 6.30pm - 8.00pm (Session two, both development applications)

TABOO paints sketch from POET
YO Poet
I chose to paint this outline because i think it was well suited for the wall. I liked the "over crowded" look of the piece. I added some Tabooism to the letters, but kept a overall shape of the piece and the crowed letter structure. Hope you like.

Design Patterns: Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software PDF. Erich Gamma provides timeless and stylish solutions to frequent problems in software program design. It describes patterns for managing object creation, objects into larger structures, and coordinating management flow between objects.
This book is not an introduction to object-oriented know-how or design. Many books already do a great job of that. This book assumes you might be reasonably proficient in no less than one object-oriented programming language, and it's best to have some expertise in object-oriented design as well. You definitely rush to the nearest dictionary the second we mention "varieties" and"polymorphism," or "interface" as opposed to "implementation" inheritance.
On the other hand, this is not a sophisticated technical treatise either. It is a book of design patterns that describes easy and elegant options to specific problems in object-oriented software design. Design patterns capture solutions which have developed and developed over time. Hence they aren't the designs people, they reflect untold redesign and recoding as builders have struggled for better reuse and flexibility of their software. This text captures these solutions in a succinct and easily utilized form.
The design patterns require neither uncommon language features nor amazing programming tips with which to astound your friends and managers. All will be implemented in customary object-oriented languages, though they could take a bit extra work than ad hoc solutions. However the additional effort invariably pays dividends in elevated flexibility and reusability.
offers numerous examples the place using composition rather than inheritance can improve the reusability and suppleness of code. Word, though, that it's not a tutorial however a catalog that you can use to search out an object-oriented design sample that is applicable for the wants of your explicit application--a selection for virtuoso programmers who recognize (or require) consistent, effectively-engineered object-oriented designs.

PC Remote Control with HIP
So, how this things can run? First, make sure that you have Infrared (IR) tranceiver built-in or plugged on your machine. If it detected well in Windows XP, over Device Manager, it will show 3 items (eHome Infrared Receiver, Microsoft eHome Infrared Transceiver & Microsoft eHome Remote Consumer Controls) just like picture below:
Next, you'll need 3rd party software purposed to communicate between RC and IR transceiver. I found 2 free software regarding to this which is Girder and HIP, but then I decide to choose HIP (stands for Human Interface Programming) because it's more easier to use. I compared that it took less time to learn HIP than Girder, so reasonable because Girder has more complete functionality than HIP. To get latest HIP software, point your browser to this link.
As you can see from above picture (got from HIP official website), HIP can organize several media or electronic to do something likes automation control, windows messaging, IR, sending, communicating with LED display, microcontroler scheduler and so on. But, the principal thing on this article is, it can provide a link between RC and (HT)PC by emulating keyboard commands over RC.
Then, what kind of non-PC RC compatible to HIP? Ok, let's try trial & error like as I did before. Get as much electronic RC you can find near you, it can be TV RC, DVD player, AC or something else. Use HIP wizard to recognize one of those things. Once your RC "handshaked", then explore it more with it & continue to next wizard.
Unfortunately, I only have 3 RC's around me; from left to right: Sharp TV RC, LG AC RC & Philips DVD Player RC. None of all recognized by HIP except the DVD RC. On 3rd party Girder plugin page, I found that Philips mostly use RC6 IR chip on their RC. I also found that this RC6 chip is compatible with SFH56-36; TSOP1736 sensor with sufficient sensitivity transmitters at 36kHz. From other resources on internet, I found too that most of remote controls operate at 38kHz, some at 36kHz and some (mostly Sony) at 40kHz. A higher frequency value means better sensitivity but limited to IR transceiver and lower frequency means less sensitivity but high compatibility to IR transceiver.
The great thing is, you can assembling those chip into a IR transceiver with RS232 (COM port) based by your own self at US$ 1 cost only, just look at above PCB diagram! Ok, back to topic. Once you have RC recognized by HIP, get continue to next wizard until you find a window asking you what software you want to control. On my experience to support my Media Center, I choose PowerDVD 9 (Cinema Mode), Winamp, Windows Media Player and On Screen Keyboard.
Each of those software need to configure one by one using HIP user input button. For example, if you choose Play shortcut keyboard in Winamp (known as "X"), on Edit Value window, you need to press approriate Play button on RC.
And so on with others function on each software until all software listed succesfully by HIP. To test the RC button, simply press Run button on HIP or activate it by using mouse right click over HIP icon reside in taskbar.
Dont forget to execute the software first. Once it's been running, HIP will notice you by yellow balloon tips rise at the HIP icon from the taskbar.
From this point, you can try whether your configuration button is suitable or not. On my test using Philips DVD Player RC, I can operate the PC well from 6m distance with non-wall penetrated. I think it's great with no cost additional of course! Have a good try.

Chad and Yard are two hit-men who are equally skilled at their jobs. They work under the supervision of Tran, the right-hand man of Madame Louie, the leader of an underground drug dealing business in Thailand. This makes Chad and Yard compete against one another to become number one. They are constantly competing and fighting against each other over every matter. Tran then sent the two on a mission to deliver Kookitno drugs, a new type of drug, to a client. Therefore, the two must be careful not to get followed or caught by the police, especially Police Colonel Cherdsak Chaya, who is heavily driven by his job as a narcotic police. Kookitno drugs are unique in that they produce faster side effects. Once ingested, one will quickly fall asleep and begin to hallucinate severely. In addition, when combined with the stimulant of music, the drug's effect will increase even more. If ingested beyond the recommended dose, it will drive a person mad to the point of killing others, committing suicide, and overdosing from the drug's toxicity.
While on duty to deliver the drugs, Chad was secretly ambushed, which resulted in him falling off the cliff. Police Colonel Cherdsak sent Police Lieutenant Sakchai, an undercover spy for the police, to disguise himself as Chad because he looks similar to Chad. He underwent surgery to look exactly like Chad even if Sak-Chai didn't quite agree with the method. This was a top secret case.
Meanwhile, drug dealers from Hong Kong and Cuba want to hire Yard to steal Kookitno's secret drug formula. Yard accepted the offer because they were willing to pay him a very high price for the job. Even though the deal was made top secret, it was unable to escape the ears of the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration). Yard then met Rasamee, a tourist guide. He fell in love with her and asked her to take him and the drug dealers on a tour in Chiang Mai not knowing that she's actually an undercover cop.
When Lieutenant Sakchai awoken from surgery, they were ready to make the switch. The police had gathered every bit of information about Chad from his past history and personality traits to ensure they impersonate Chad accurately. When Sakchai woke up to see his face, he was so unhappy that he ran away and bumped into Tran. Tran then brought him to rest at the mansion because he thought he was Chad. He called Becky, Chad's lover to come take care of him. Becky knew that this Chad wasn't the same Chad, but she didn't say anything.
Furthermore, Pailu is a famous Chinese singer from Hong Kong. She is also an undercover cop who is working for China to bring down the criminals behind the Kookitno drug trade. All three undercover cops will some how cross paths and work together to bring Madam's Louie drug trade to an end.

Well, its certainly about time I shared some "Isla" inspiration with you...and today's layouts are by Kim.
First up, this super sweet Easter layout. "Isla" is a perfect mix of bright and pastel...just perfect for those bunny photos.
What a great use of the My Little Shoebox diecut! Why not try cutting your backing page shorter to showcase that diecut! Love the butterflies flying off the journaling spot. Don't they match perfectly.
To soften the colour of the peach cardstock, Kim has spritzed the background with white mist...just perfect for baby girl layouts.
Cheers, Lis.

Abstract: Certain oscillatory features in the primordial scalar power spectrum areknown to provide a better fit to the outliers in the cosmic microwavebackground data near the multipole moments of $\ell=22$ and 40. These featuresare usually generated by introducing a step in the popular, quadratic potentialdescribing the canonical scalar field. Such a model will be ruled out, if thetensors remain undetected at a level corresponding to a tensor-to-scalar ratioof, say, $r\simeq 0.1$. In this work, in addition to the popular quadraticpotential, we investigate the effects of the step in a small field model and atachyon model. With possible applications to future datasets such as PLANCKin mind, we evaluate the tensor power spectrum exactly, and include itscontribution in our analysis. We compare the models with the WMAP five as wellas seven-year, the QUaD and the ACBAR data. As expected, a step at aparticular location and of a suitable magnitude and width is found to improvethe fit to the outliers near $\ell=22$ and 40 in all these cases. We pointout that, if the tensors prove to be small say, $r\lesssim 0.01$, thequadratic potential and the tachyon model will cease to be viable, and moreattention will need to be paid to examples such as the small field models.

Here is the amazing love story of TolaniAyo-Vaughan and Ibikun Eweje.
From the bride, Tolani:
"I think the story starts when one day in class. A friend asked me if I had met this new guy named Ibk. I told him no, and he proceeded to tell me all about him. He said Ibk had moved here (to the US) from Netherlands but is Yoruba, from Nigeria, and in the corps of cadets etc. It's funny because we both do not remember the exact day we met, but we think it was at an African Students Association (ASA) meeting back in 2009."
"Fast forward two years, I was organizing a scholarship pageant and needed some volunteers to help with the event. I reached out to him asking if he was interested in being one of our hosts and he agreed (till today he is convinced that I asked him to participate in the event because I was 'interested' in him)."
"Later in the year we started talking frequently on Facebook and then through texts and then phone calls everyday. We quickly learned that we had a lot in common, both really into Nigerian music…both engineers…both God fearing… both oil kids growing up in different countries…both hate olives etc and so our friendship grew quite rapidly."
is truly a blessing to me. He has this natural gift of lighting up a room by bringing smiles and laughter to everyone with his outgoing personality. I admire his drive and dedication in everything he does, and I really appreciate that he also motivates and pushes me to strive for my best as well. He is my very best friend and I don't know what I would do without him. He has been a constant source of happiness in my life. I thank God every day for bringing him all the way from Netherlands to Texas and into my life, and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him."
From the groom, Ibukun:
"Words cannot describe the amount of joy and happiness I have experienced since I started my relationship with She is one of the most caring, thoughtful and selfless people I know. She is smart and beautiful. Majority of females seem to have either one or the other. Sometimes, none. I am blessed and highly favored to be the one she chose to spend the rest of her life with. From the day I met her, I always thought she was too good for me. I know there is a God when he decided to show grace in aligning our paths. She is my best friend, my close companion, my adviser, my love."
"We took our time in getting to know each other. We were both attracted to each other but did not want to rush things. The pace of our relationship seemed to bug people as they would often say, "Make it official already!" I will like to attribute the success of our relationship to our love for God and our deliberate focus on building a solid foundation of friendship. We learnt each other's likes and dislikes: the fact that she claims to hate green but seems to purchase items in that colour the most, or her utter repugnance of guacamole. is a woman of many talents: A dancer, 5 star Chef, an engineer, an athlete, and a classy beautician. She is a shining example of the perfect wife and I am sure that the Lord has a future full of blessings and prosperity ahead of us."

The iconic Lionel Messi had a very up-and-down match on the road at Almeria Saturday.
First, his goal to open the scoring in the 28th minute extended his La Liga record for career away goals with 101, with the former record-holder the Real Madrid legend Hugo Sanchez with 99.
Just following the goal, however, Messi asked to be removed with what appears to be a thigh muscle injury, according to AS. He was replaced by Xavi Hernandez.
Messi isn't one to ask to be substituted often, although he did miss a bit of time last season with a hamstring injury.
Barcelona have a bit of fixture congestion coming up, so they'll need Messi as much as possible. They face Celtic in the Champions League midweek on Tuesday, then have three matches in seven days following the early October international break.
If Messi needs time off, manager Gerardo Martino may request…

Corpse Bride
Sometimes living on Kodiak can be depressing. I wanted to make a yarn that would make me laugh. I laughed so hard watching the Corpse Bride, I named a yarn after it. Who hasn't been the crazy girl trying to just make it work? Corpse Bride is an ultra bulky Merino wool. I'd probably use size 15 needles and up.

I'm making a series of illustrations for Temaforlaget, one of them are a group of bacteria oozing around on one spread. They are illustrating an article about people becoming more resistent towards antibiotics.
Temaforlaget are amazing clients to work with, they understand that if you make people feel like you trust them to do their best, they will. And maybe the result will be better than trying to control every move the artist do. I'm not sure if they are aware they have this attitude, but it works like mad for me!
The articles are also very inspiring. The concept Temaforlaget is working from is to make heavy and difficult reads within science more entertaining, interesting and easier to read, then perhaps making science more accessible.
Yay to Temaforlaget:)

Traffic lights will be used to control vehicles while a survey is carried out over two nights by the Holiday Inn at Chester Racecourse
Cheshire West and Chester Council has appointed a contractor to carry out a survey of services along New Crane Street from Holiday Inn Express Chester Racecourse to St Martin's Way (A5268).
The surveys will be carried out overnight from June 1 for two nights, between 7pm and 7am, to minimise any disruption.
RELATED STORY: Partial closure of Chester's Liverpool Road will disrupt traffic
During these times temporary traffic lights will be used to manage traffic while the survey works are taking place for the safety of the public and the workforce.
Cllr Brian Clarke, Cabinet member for economic development and infrastructure, said: "These surveys will provide us with information regarding the underground services that supply the city. There will be some disruption to the normal flow of traffic, however, no significant delays are expected."

In recent years, I feel as though I've gained a lot of ground in the area of self-awareness. I'm sure this is fairly common for mid-twenty somethings, feeling as though you're starting to figure out your strength and weaknesses, especially when it comes to considering your future professional life. When I was a kid, I was always told that I was very creative. I was artistic – I like to draw and paint, and these artistic talents were somehow always labeled as "creative." As time went on, however, I started to have difficulty seeing myself as creative. I loved other artists' work – especially modern, abstract art. The problem was that I never felt drawn to create that type of art. I loved painting still-life scenes of flowers in glass vases, fruit, and landscapes. New ideas came easy to me, and the felt creative, but they were never completely outrageous. The outcomes of my efforts were often boring to me, but the process of drawing definite shapes and focusing on tiny details was incredibly satisfying.
According to the ever-trusty Wikipedia, Michael Kirton's theory of Adaption-Innovation "claims that an individual's preferred approach to problem solving, can be placed on a continuum ranging from high adaptation to high innovation… Kirton suggests that while adaptors prefer to do well within a given paradigm, innovators would rather do differently, thereby striving to transcend existing paradigms." Given this proposed continuum, it would seem that the way one approaches problem solving is likely intricately intertwined with one's creativity. That innovators are naturally more creative than adaptors. But thankfully, as Isakensen and Dorval point out in their 1993 publication, "Toward an improved understanding of creativity within people: The level-style distinction," both innovators and adaptors can have either high or low levels of creativity.
Their diagram (shown here) put a great deal into perspective as to where I fall in the grand scheme of things. At no point did I somehow lose my creativity. Instead, I now understand that I've always been an adaptor, and that this style (combined with fairly high creativity) allows me to demonstrate qualities like being resourceful, efficient, and consistent. I find creative solutions within the confines of my surroundings, and while the outcomes aren't always mind-blowing, they are often things that work and create more efficient systems.
As Architect Frank Gehry points out in this article about creativity being spurred on my constraints, sometimes new ideas are most challenging when you have to keep them "in the box." While we need both innovators and adaptors, I like to think that we creative adaptors bring something special to the table, albeit perhaps being overshadowed by the more "spontaneous" and "unconventional" types. In many way, creativity within the confines of our existing structure could be seen as increasingly beneficial talent in a world where businesses and other organizations are consistently challenged to work with fewer resources.

Ricky will always be my #1 best friend, but someone's competing with him recently…
Everyone meet Ms. YGG= short for Ms. Yellow Glue Gun!
My room's been a mess since Ms. YGG and her other 'crafty' friends have been throwing house parties in my crib.
We were 'hooking' up with threads and fabrics until midnight.
Ms. YGG was bought for $4.99 (originally $8.99) because it was on sale. I wanted to buy her other competitor who was cordless and more expensive, but her yellow color attracted me. She's amazing. She doesn't talk much, but she does her magic really well. I thought she wasn't tacky enough for sticking things together but it turns out that she has to be really hot to successfully glue things together. She's really amazing. She keeps everyone in my 'crafty' department together.
Ricky's still my best friend. I hope he doesn't get super jealous.
Here's what Ms. YGG and I finished today! Messy yellow earrings. It's yellow too. Isn't that a coincidence?


text: Hi, I posted this in the 'Authenticate' thread, so I'm sorry for posting it in a new thread, it's just I've only bought this and there's just one little thing nagging at me, that I'd like to seek clarification for I bought the epi speedy in 25 from a renowned eBay powerseller that many of you seem to have bought from, so I normally wouldn't doubt its authenticity. However, the bag seems a little bigger than what I remember from the boutique - I'm not an expert though, so I'm not too sure The measurements on eLuxury and in other eBay auctions are 10" x 7", but mine is 11" width (measured from the base) and 7.5" height (measured from the side). Everything else on the bag is exactly as it's supposed to be - markings, date code etc down to every last detail. I've also received an authentic bag previously from this seller as well. If it's not too much trouble, could someone please provide me with measurements of their own epi speedy 25, to give me peace of mind? Again, please excuse my ignorance and thanks in advance for your help!

For all my fellow federal employees - this weekend begins a brand new fiscal year. Hope last year was good for everyone, and this next year brings you all the rewards, health and prosperity that is normally wished at that "other" new year. For those who work in finance, hope this wasn't too brutal of a year end for you, and remember, there's always next year.

There is a peculiarity among many who were raised in the Catholic faith. That is that they profess to believe that a person is "born Catholic". In other words, if your parents were Catholic and you were baptised and raised Catholic (whatever that meant in your family), you are ALWAYS a Catholic. You CAN'T be anything else. It is not possible. So, while you may walk the middle path with the Buddha or dance for Jesus with the Pentecostals, you are still, in the eyes of the Catholic Church, a Catholic. Just not a very "good" one.
I speak of this because my own spiritual path began (in this body, anyway) with me being held over a pool of Holy Water, swathed in incense and oil, my name being officially spoken before God and his faithful. Since then, it has led me through an Assembly of God, the Buddhist teachings and everything in between. And yet, as I grow older, and perhaps wiser, at certain times of the year I can not help but feel, well... Catholic.
Spring is one of those times. The time of Easter. The time of Renewal. And the Giving Up.
It is not a coincidence that Easter occurs in the Spring. Even pre-Christian Easter myths speak of death and new life. Of growth and renewal. We clean our houses. (Some of us clean our digestive tracts!) Everything is given a chance to become new. And that is what Spring and Easter really are all about. This idea is integral to understanding the real value of "giving up".
For those of you who may not be familiar with Catholic teaching, it is customary at the beginning of Lent (the forty day period leading up to Easter Sunday) to "give something up". A vice. A pleasure. A source of comfort. When I was a child, the rationale for this was explained, simply: Jesus suffered on the cross, so we should feel some suffering too.
This explanation, while simple to understand, fails on a few levels.
All one has to do is look around and see that there is suffering everywhere. Just like Siddhartha, I have glimpsed out at the vast suffering in life and wondered at times if that was not really all there was. So, to say that for a certain forty days of the year, we should induce suffering in some small, most likely non-life-changing way, seems rather ridiculous and a bit grandiose. Really? You're giving up Chocolate? Wow. Im sure all the starving children of the world will be right there with you as you post your woah-is-me Facebook status updates for the next thirty nine days.
More importantly, the explanation really fails to invite us to explore the immense potential spiritual benefit to "giving up".
Regardless of your spirituality, the idea of giving up, surrender, letting go has most likely made its way into your personal lexicon. In recent years, popular spirituality and psychology has melded the Eastern ideas of Zen Buddhism and other schools of thought into quaint little snippets, sorts of "spiritual petit-fours", to quote Lily Tomlin in "I Heart Huckabees", for us to carry around in our pockets for times when we need to "remember to breathe". You know. "Serenity now!" and all that.
I would like to think that in today's Religious Ed classes, the children and young adults are given a much more enticing and provocative rationale for "giving something up" for Lent. I would hope that it would go something like this:
Giving up can be a profound Spiritual exercise. Even the idea, in today's materialistic, instant-gratification culture, seems foreign. "Why would Jesus care whether or not I drink a cup of coffee every morning for forty days?" Well, forgive me, Mother Genevieve Regina and all the devout Christians in my life, but I for one do not believe that Jesus gives a rat's ass whether or not you drink coffee in the morning. And even if he did, that would be far from the point.
The point, in this wayward Catholic's mind at least, is the experience. It's not the thing. It's not the absence of the thing. It's you being present in the absence of the thing. And, ultimately, what fills the space that the thing left behind.
It is so very easy in our culture to find ourselves burdened by the massive amount of things that we have learned to cling to for security. The idea of discomfort is foreign and scary. Going without has become a non-option. And of course we have all seen where that has gotten us, even on a national level. How many of us might find that having one thing less might just give us the levity to explore something deeper and more meaningful?
How often during the year do we pause and really check in with what it feels like to be uncomfortable. The mere avoidance of discomfort is the ultimate goal of some peoples' lives. Maybe even people you know. Maybe even you. Imagine that there might be something waiting beyond the discomfort. Something worth the discomfort. But you have to go through that place to find out.
When I think about "giving up for Lent" in this framework, I think to myself "Man, thos Catholic Patriarchs were effing amazing!" A gift in the form of a mandate. But none the less, if accepted, a real gift. Sure, some guy in a funny hat is telling you what to do. But, like our own parents who are "meanies" for our own good, the guy in the hat wanted you to have something better.
What a brave and valuable exercise it could be, for a finite number of days in this time of newness, to just see what things might unfold in the space where the thing you think you can't do without once was.
Even if your personal spiritual belief is more along the lines of "Im going to grab all the gusto I can get in this lifetime because you only live once.", consider how much easier it would be to grab ahold of (or graciously accept) the Next Amazing Thing that the Universe has in store for you if you didn't have so much in your hands already.
Emptiness is a transitional state. The question is, transition to what? The answer can not be known until you create the empty space. However uncomfortable the creation of that space may be, like a tidal pool, it WILL fill up again. Maybe with something really beautiful, valuable and elusive.
So this year, once again, for forty days, I'm a Catholic. I'm going to engage in the spiritual practice of giving up. Surrendering. Letting go. And I am certain that when I come out on the other side of Lent, I will be anything but empty.

Land in Leeds and other cities facing a housing crisis must be broken down into small and "micro" parcels wherever possible in order to really boost house building, according to industry experts.
Brian Berry, chief executive of the Federation of Master Builders, said the availability of small sites is "the greatest barrier" that small and medium sized house builders currently face when delivering new homes. He said the Government's new initiative to make public land available to small builders was "welcome", adding: "We need to bring more small house builders back into the market if we have any hope of addressing the housing shortfall. Directly funding developments on publicly owned land, with planning permission already granted, should encourage growth of smaller builders."
Leeds council bosses have pledged to build 70,000 homes by 2028 to meet rising demand. Planning chiefs will meet later this week to discuss the city's Brownfield Land programme, designed to come up with innovative ways of selling and developing pieces of previously built-on land.

The United States Postal Service announced that several of the most beloved comic strips were to make an appearance in the Sunday Funnies Postage Stamps collection including Calvin and Hobbes, Archie and Dennis the Menace, but alas, no Marmaduke.

... so my perfect moment has come and gone, and many more moments have been replaced. Many wonderful, some not so great, and the rest just the usual.
Days seem to fly by and I wonder how things never seems to slow down.
I fear I may be missing some of these moments because...
I forgot to pay attention...
I forgot that my first born is going to be a senior next year...
Wasn't it yesterday that I was watching him on the sideline playing soccer praying that he would kick the ball in the right direction. Now I pray he is headed in the right direction when he is driving himself home.
Didn't I just turn 30?
Wasn't I just praying that my baby boy #3 would sleep just for a moment?...
Alright that one I am still praying for, it been 10 years, pretty sure he's not sleeping anytime soon.
It seems only yesterday when I cried hearing the news that baby boy #4 would most likely never walk, never talk, and the outcome of his life was uncertain...
Yet he proved them all wrong and does all of the above, perhaps not in the way most of us do, but he gets it done.
Yep moments are fleeting...
And because this is so I have chosen a new word to center me this year.
present: a moment in time, between past and future; now. Being, alert, at hand. Attentive. A gift.
Now not sure my kids would call me a gift, but perhaps some day they will.
For now I will work on the present.
The me that I can control and do so if need be moment to moment.
Perhaps even see those moments that I thought had passed.
At the present time I am off to bed, work is put away, dishes are done, and all my blessings are quietly tucked into bed in preparation for the world they must face tomorrow.

Great product! I use it as regular foundation, I'm not into full coverage since my skin is very dry (even though it could give medium coverage if you build it up, im sure) - this is very hydrating and gives my skin amazing glow.
It does get a bit cakey in the cheek/mouth transition area if I dont exfoliate about once or twice a week. But thats probably just my skin being a bastard. I also apply with my fingers and that works really well.
The amount of light shades is excellent. I wear the lightest shade in winter, and my shade (neutral/pink) is usually hard to find. Also such a great price! Thanks Lumene :)

Excellent. Lovely consistency, high level of pigmentation for medium coverage undiluted, that is easily diluted for sheerer coverage with oil or moisturizer. Works well with or without primer. Very very VERY slight oxidation, only in very warm weather; barely noticeable (I am obsessive about oxidation!). Does not settle into lines.
My skin is dry and fair - colour light perfect in Winter or Summer warmed up to custom degree with bronzer for the season at hand.
No odour; tube with very controllable pointed opening for easy dispensing.
Hope they never stop making this - it is the perfect base on it's own or for concealer/ heavier spot application of foundation if this is how you roll.
HG. Only others that begin to compare are IT CC and Dr. Jart.

I purchased this CC product after reading the reviews here and on Ulta's website. I have tried so many different BB/CC creams from high end (Dior) to Asian to my trusty Neutrogena Healthy Skin Enhancer drugstore product.
I have Ok skin with large pores that get clogged easily and oily tzone. My biggest gripes in the BB/CC world are the color selections, oiliness and they don't stay put. So far my favorite combo I've tried is the NHSE mixed with Skin79 pink. I mix the two together because I don't like the heaviness of the Skin79 by itself, and the NHSE has retinol in it which helps keep my skin clear and antiaging. I have tried for weeks to buy the Skin79 and it's been out (I only buy from their site so it's reputable) so I got fed up and looked for something else. Enter Lumene CC.
I got the medium and light in a BOGO sale from ulta so that I could mix the two together depending on my summer skin tone. I was very impressed with the liquid, silky texture that came out and the strong pigment. So many others seem to get washed out. This one performed very well, and STAYED which for me was a plus. I also haven't had any breakouts which is nice.
I would compare the texture to Dior's Hydralife which is saying alot! Hydralife was a little better (it should be for the $50 price tag) but where this far excelled was the color and the matte finish with a nice glow. If you are dry skinned, you might need to apply a heavier moisturizer because this one did not moisturize much. I highly recommend this and might just be my new go-to.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Neutral
Hair: Brunette, Curly, Fine

This is great. I mean really, really great. I have light to medium skin tone (medium in the summer), pretty neutral with olive undertones. I this in the shade medium in & it's perfection. I've been looking for something to use in the winter while I'm paler. My skin is in pretty good shape but in the winter I can see the blackheads around my nose, the redness, some dark spots on my checks etc. I usually use mineral powder but this year my skin is so dry I feel like it's highlighting little wrinkles & it's definitely settling into my flaky dry skin, not cute. But even with the dry skin I have to blot twice a day - true combination, dehydrated skin.
Enter Lumene - I was debating the BB cream & came across reviews for this. Found it at CVS for $14.99, not bad. This is exactly what I needed! It provides build able coverage without looking mask-y, adjusts to my skin tone. The finish is not matte to the point of accentuating lines & dryness, but it is still pore less, ad satin-y. It takes nothing, I mean the smallest amount of product to give a great veil of finish. The tube even has a tiny nozzle where the product comes out so no wasting it, no bacteria getting in. I apply with my fingers or Real Techniques Expert Face Brush, set with MUFE HD powder & have worn it for several weeks now. It hasn't broken me out & has been through many 12+ hour days including rehearsals & sweat at the gym - looks great. I live at high altitude so SPF is always a bonus but I would not count on it as your only protection. You won't use enough product to provide it! I'll try the BB in the summer for lighter coverage, Lumene has a new customer!
In the past I tried NARS Radiant Creme Concl. which settled into lines under my eyes & I could visibly see pooling in pores around my nose. I used Boscia BB last summer which has a pretty finish but I could always see it on my skin, it didn't work in like this does. The Lumene just looks like my skin, not foundation-y at all. Boscia also broke me out a little bit. I also tried Maybelline's Fit Me. I like it under my eyes alright, but I like Lumene better on the rest of my face & I'm getting a lot more product for my money.

Love this! Lumene cc is definitely not as moisturizing as a bb cream. However, the color payoff is so perfect, high spf. It neutralizes the redness around my nose and camouflages my under eye circles. There is a light scent, but I have been using for a week now and hasn't caused any breakouts on my sensitive skin. The only downside of this product is the lack of colors. I have olive skin and will probably only be able to wear this during winter as the medium is the darkest shade available.
