Can it be the best of times and the worst of times, all in the same month? If you were running a movie studio, eager to understand what the first 30 or so days of 2009 say about the business at large, you'd be buoyant one day, bitterly depressed the next. The DVD market, which has quietly supplied the biggest pure profits for Hollywood in recent years, is in the doldrums, evidencing little hope of regaining its high-roller status, with Blu-ray looking more and more like a dud while many young consumers experiment with alternative ways of watching movies. On the other hand, in January -- once the dumping ground for new releases -- the theatrical box office was up a remarkable 19% over last year, with moviegoers flocking to see a variety of comedies, thrillers and dramas. It just goes to show that in Hollywood, nobody knows anything. The only thing for sure is that to see where you're going, you have to know where you've been. With that in mind, here's a look at how the major studios performed in 2008.
It's become a tradition at this time of year, first in my column and now in my blog, to grade the major movie studios on their performance over the course of the year. The Studio Report Card started as a way to get a handle on how the business works, but it also serves as a corrective to all those business stories that essentially trumpet how much market share the giant studio conglomerates have without really wrestling with something that matters to us film fanatics: While they were raking in all that cash, did the studios actually make any good movies? That's why I give two grades, one for commerce, one for quality. And trust me, in the quality department, studios rarely get an A.

Food dehydrators are a great way to preserve vitamins and minerals in food over a long period of time. Dried food items including fruits, vegetables, meats, and jerky retain the same nutritional value as their fresh counterparts and also develop enhanced flavor during the dehydration process. These items must be stored in airtight jars or bags away from direct light and heat until they are used. Fruits and vegetables that have been dehydrated have a remarkable shelf life of up to 30 years.
When it comes to choosing the right food dehydrator, it is wise to choose a product that produces constant heat to avoid hardening the food items. Additionally, care must be taken to ensure that moisture does not contaminate vital parts. The trays may need to be rotated from time to time for optimum results. However, there are multiple designs that address all of these issues and go even further with features like added power, innovative heating methods, and quiet components. Let us know what you look for in a food dehydrator and which of the above items is the best choice for your needs?

For freedom in improving your health, with maintaining your sanity. 🙂 I had a rigid plan for several years, and loved most of it, as odd as that sounds- until I wanted to eat while food omnivore meals again.
I hope people gain some insight from the posts, and that I don't come across as arrogant or all knowing. My hope is that people who are having struggles with their health goals and unenjoyable/rigid diet and workout plans end up finding a balance that works for them. Not too little freedom and also not too much – like having processed foods every single meal and no salads. That wouldn't be successful for most folks with beaten bodies from past eating habits.
Best of health. Ryan

Albany, New York. It's the capital of New York,
the home of the River Rats of the AHL (who needs the
NHL), and the next stop on the road to Wrestlemania.
One big question, will John Cena be the U.S.
champion when he faces JBL next month? Michael Cole
and Tazz answer that question and others.
Speaking of Cena, the good doctor starts the show
off with a bang, getting the Albany crowd fired up,
sporting a Lawrence Taylor throwback jersey. Cena says
he busted up the champ's party because he is sick of
JBL. Cena then cements his status with the crowd by
playing the "I'm one of you" card. Cena tells JBL he
wants a fight, and since the champ ducked him last
week, he'll face Orlando Jordan.
Match #1 - Rey Mysterio and Eddie Guerrero vs.
Luther Reigns and Mark Jindrak
Guerrero and Reigns exchange holds to start the
match, bet Reigns powers Eddie into the corner.
Guerrero makes a quick tag to Rey, who hit Reigns with
a double axe handle. Reigns responds by choking Rey on
the second rope. Jindrak tags in, and gets dropkicked
in the face. Mysterio gets double teamed, as the ref
is outside the ring dealing with Guerrero. Reigns
tosses Mysterio face first into the turnbuckle, and
tags in Jindrak. Mysterio fights out of the heels
corner, and knock Reigns into the ropes. A knee to the
back from Jindrak shuts down the 619. Mysterio makes a
desperation tag. Guerrero dropkicks Jindrak off the
apron, and then dropkicks Reigns. Guerrero hits two of
the three amigos, and Eddie ducks, so Mysterio can hit
a seated senton. Guerrero then hits the third suplex.
Eddie climbs the ropes and hits the frog splash, and
the champs retain their belts.
Winner via pin fall: Rey Mysterio and Eddie
After the match, Jindrak and Reigns argue, and get
into a shoving match. And shoving leads to slapping
that leads to punching, and Jindrak knocks out Reigns
with a left hook.
Three of the random Divas are in the back, when
Dawn Marie walks in. Dawn says she has had enough of
these girls. Dawn starts in on Joy, but Michelle
McCool comes to her aid. Dawn wants to get in the
ring, and challenges Michelle to a mixed tag match.
Teddy Long is on the phone discussing
Wrestlemania, when Carlito reports for duty. Teddy has
an assignment for Carlito. Shovel the front walk.
In case you missed it, there were a few
announcements concerning Wrestlemania. First Piper's
Pit is returning, and his guest is Stone Cold Steve
Match #2 - Booker T vs. Heidenreich
Booker T jumps Heidenreich as he enters the ring,
and pummels him in the corner. Booker follows with a
suplex, and then slams his head into the top
turnbuckle. Heidenreich responds by hammering away on
Booker's back. A kick to the belly slows Heidenreich,
and the big man rolls outside the ring. Booker
follows, slamming Heidenreich into the security
barrier. Heidenreich reverses and Irish whip, sending
Booker T into the ring post. Booker is then tossed
into the ring, and tossed shoulder first into the ring
post. Heidenreich slaps on a key lock, and Booker T
fights out with a chin buster. Booker starts to build
momentum, and knocks Heidenreich to the ground with a
kick to the sternum. He follows with a spin kick.
Heidenreich explodes out of the corner, and catches
Booker with a clothesline. Heidenreich grabs a chair,
but Booker kicks it back in his face. Booker then
DDTs Heidenreich on the chair, and gets himself
Winner via DQ: Heidenreich
After the bell, Booker hits an axe kick and then
follows with a spin-a-rooni.
I don't know how they do it, but WWE tops itself
every week with the Wrestlemania promos. John Cena and
JBL recreate the courtroom scene in A Few Good Men,
with JBL in Jack Nicholson's role. If only the
wrestling storylines were this creative. The best
line, "While Big Show's loss maybe tragic, it probably
saved this company." That's good stuff. If the
Wretlemania 21 DVD has all these promos on it, I'm
buying it, no questions asked.
Match #3 - Kurt Angle vs. ??? - Kurt Angle
Angle gloats about his actions on RAW Monday, and
then shows the footage, in black and white. The
Olympic champ wants to prove that he's the best, not
Shawn Michaels. Angle's opponent comes to the ring
covered by a hood. Angle assumes that it's HBK under
the hood. It's not; it's just a local wrestler from
Albany, and he looks pissed. Angle says he knew he
wasn't HBK, because HBK wouldn't show up on Smackdown.
The cameraman behind Angle lays down his camera, and
takes off his hat. It's HBK. Michaels jumps Angle, and
beats on him until security can separate the two men.
No contest
Teddy Long stops security to talk to HBK. Long
says he's not hatin' on him, but he has to have him
escorted from the building.
Match #4 - Dawn Marie and Renee Dupree vs.
Michelle McCool and The Big Show - Mixed Tag Team
The only purpose this match serves is to set up
some Diva nonsense at Wrestlemania, which is there so
everyone in the arena can make a nacho run. Hopefully,
McCool will get some wrestling lessons between now and
then. Dupree wants nothing to do with this match, when
Big Show makes his way to the ring. Michelle and Dawn
start things off, and in this match only girl can
fight girls, and men fight men. Dawn beats up
Michelle, and then Michelle wastes valuable airtime
trying to 'wrestle'. Dupree tags in and mocks McCool,
only to get kicked in the groin. Big Show tags in, and
choke slams Dupree. Show covers for the win.
Winner via pin fall: Michelle McCool and The
Big Show
Carlito is having some trouble shoveling the snow.
He throws down the shovel, but slips on the ice.
JBL heads to the ring, by himself, and he doesn't
look happy. The champ wants answers. He wants to know
why he doesn't deserve a celebration. JBL also wants
to know why people cheered when his party was ruined.
JBL tells the crowd, and John Cena, that they must
respect him. JBL says Cena has made a mockery of the
U.S. title, and he hates what he stands for. It makes
him sick that he has to face Cena at WM 21. JBL goes
on and on and on and on, just running down the crowd,
trying to whip them into an angry froth, but not quite
getting there. Until, he threaten to walk out because
of the boos. Then the crowd gets into it, and the
champ walks out.
JBL gathers up his cabinet to leave, but orders
Jordan to stay and win the U.S. title. And if he
doesn't JBL will send Jordan "Back to the hood, with
those people." (Before you jump all over this for
being racist, I know what JBL meant; it ties in
directly with the promo he just cut.)
Chavo Guerrero stops by to see his uncle. He
talks to Rey, and says Eddie is only tagging with him
so Rey can't beat him. You know, keeping his friends
close and enemies closer. Chavo says Eddie will
strike, you can never trust a Guerrero.
Joy and Big Show are talking about the win, when
Funaki interrupts. Funaki pitches Show on facing
legendary Sumo wrestler Aki Bono. Show says it will be
his honor to face him.
Match #5 - John Cena vs. Orlando Jordan - U.S.
Title Match
Cena and Jordan lock up, and Cena pulls off a
quick schoolboy, but Jordan kicks out. Cena hits a
suplex, and almost scores the pin. Jordan gets a boot
up in the corner, but then walks into a side slam. He
follows with the five-knuckle shuffle. Jordan rolls
out of the ring to regroup. After the commercial
break, Jordan is hip tossed by Cena. Jordan fights out
of a rear naked choke, and the ducks a clothesline,
but missed on the cross body. Cena hits a leg drop,
and then tosses Jordan into the corner. Cena drop the
chief of staff with a series of punches. A thumb to
the eye slows down Cena. Jordan climbs the turnbuckle,
and hits a flying cross body, but Cena rolls through
the lateral press, and almost gets the pin. Cena
mounts Jordan in the corner, and hits the 10 punches,
but Jordan power bombs Cena off the turnbuckle, and
almost gets the pin. Jordan hits a high elbow, to
knock Cena to the mat. Jordan dropkicks Cena, and
follows with a body slam, and leg drop. Cena kicks out
at two. Jordan locks in a rear naked choke. Cena
fights out, and counters with a back suplex. Cena
nails a shoulder block, and both men go down. Jordan
gets to his feet in the corner, and Cena nails him
with a clothesline. The champ follows with an inverted
atomic drop. Cena nails a spinning slam, and then
pumps up the shoes. Cena hits the F-U, as the Bashams
hit the ring. Cena takes care of the Bashams, but
doesn't see JBL outside the ring. Cena is clocked with
the WWE title, and Orlando Jordan pins Cena to win the
U.S. title.
Winner and new United States Champion: Orlando
JBL and Jordan mock Cena as they head to the back.

I am obsessed. I can't help it. I just can't. Stamping has taken my nails to a whole new level of pretty.
The night before last I couldn't decide what pattern to stamp on my nails, so I gave my boyfriend the choice. What a great choice he made! This really detailed pattern on Bundle Monster plate 201 is absolutely gorgeous, almost displaying a stained glass window sort of effect.
The next problem seemed to be choosing the colours. I knew that I was off to a BBQ yesterday and that I wanted to wear my black and white polka dot dress (LOVE IT) so I thought black and white would be a good idea. But as I reached for the polishes, the super duper shiny Barry M Instant Nail Effect Silver Foil caught by eye, and I knew that I had to use it.
Proving once again that I am impossibly indecisive, I could choose whether to paint a black background and stamp with silver, or paint a silver background and stamp with black. So I did both. I also wanted to try doing an 'accent nail' too, so I thought I'd throw that in the bundle.
The final outcome was very pleasing indeed.
I am SUPER proud of these babies. I didn't even need to redo ANY of them, they all turned out like this first time – proving not that I'm good at it, but that they are stupidly easy to do. Seriously. If I can do it, anyone can.
The silver on the black is probably my favourite out of the two combinations as the dominance of the black really pops against the paleness of my skin. But I do really like the weird mix on my fingers, so I think I would try the mix and match with accents again.
Is it bad that I'm already planning which set of stamps to try next?

Ring of Honor Wrestling on Sinclair (Wrestling's Finest Edition #2)
February 15, 2014
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (David L. Lawerence Center)
Commentators: Kevin Kelly, Steve Corino
Recap by: Jason Namako of Wrestleview.com
Veda Scott joins commentary for our opening match.
Before the match, Maria Kanellis has a mic and says that men like the Romantic Touch disgust her. They think women need them. People think women don't have power in wrestling. I just think the wrong women have power in wrestling. I'm not afraid to be in this ring, taking piledrivers, or whatever else men wanna give me because that gives me power. I wanna prove everybody wrong and teach them that women in wrestling can power. My finance has power because I taught him his new finisher in the bedroom. Michael Bennett says that since day one, he has said that he is better than the best. From now on, I'm gonna take all the power that I want.

I just got back from a week long vacation on my very own. I went to New York to visit my sister, Sherri and her family. It was so gorgeous there and COOL!!!! I did not miss the 115 degree heat for one single moment. We hung out and watched the Olympics, made some cute projects, went to a concert in the park, played with the kids,shopped, visited family and ate out a lot! My other sister, Lori and her family flew in from Florida the last day I was there so it was fun to get to see them too!
Sherri is quite the crafty one so we made a few books while I was there and now I just need to put pictures in them. So fun! She always has a fun new project to show me!
Her youngest, Aidan, got a Knight's costume while I was there. He decided it was fun to "sword" with everyone but he didn't quite understand that even though the sword was plastic it hurt when you got whacked with it! So, after watching Kevin get beat up pretty good, when I was asked to "sword" I claimed I was a princess and he was supposed to save me from the mean dragon. He found his stuffed dragon and proceeded to "kill" it with his plastic sword and then told me he saved me, "Princess Kathy" from the dragon. My Hero!!!!!! So, so cute!
Aidan and Alexis also made Kami a darling little necklace with "pixie dust" in it to bring her good luck. (Kami almost always went with me when I met up with them and they missed her terribly!) She wore it to work for the last 2 days and loves it because it came from them! I wish I would have thought to take a picture of it before I gave it to her!
Little Miss Addie entertained us all. She is such a cutie and she danced and played until she dropped. She is such a happy little baby-this was the first time I met this little niece of mine.
The bonus of the trip was that I was able to start and finish Breaking Dawn. (I was waiting so I could read it on the plane.) It was great- hardly any interruptions!And the very best part was that my house was CLEAN when I got home! Thanks Honey!!

Happy Anniversary!
I can't believe it has been a year since my daughter and son in law got married! Life sure seems a lot calmer than it did back then! We had a missionary return and a wedding all in a 2 week span. Not to mention my father in law was in the hospital and I managed to have a surprise pregnancy and miscarriage. Yes, life is MUCH calmer now!
These newlyweds have had an interesting first year but I know that they will be stronger because of the challenges that they have faced. I'm going to give a few words of wisdom for them here (can't get in trouble when you write it)
1. Always put each other FIRST
2. Listen to each other and be willing to compromise
3. Don't cut each other down- even to other people
4. Pray together daily
5. Go to the temple often
6. Date night is a must!
7. Keep the sparks alive
8. Live within your budget!
9. Stay close to your Heavenly Father
10.Grandchildren welcome! :)
I wish you magical years ahead of you. Stay close to each other!

The gang!
I came across this picture taken from Cory's birthday that I didn't know or at least forgot that I had. This is the whole gang! Alyssa (Matt's girlfriend), Matt, Vaughn, Kami and Cory (front and center) I love these guys so much!
It seems like we have a revolving door at our house. There is always someone coming or going. You definitely can't walk around the house without being fully dressed cuz you never know who might be visiting. Sometimes in the mornings there is an extra body on the floor of the family room or on the couch since Cory's friends are here many a night playing guitar hero.
I can't imagine what life is going to be like in another year when they are all gone. I'm really not looking forward to it. I think the quiet might kill me!

Ok- so funny story!!!!
My apologies everyone! Remember my post on my son's skateboard wipe out? Well, story stands true but...pictures aren't of him. ROFLOL!!!!! When I found the pictures on the computer I was frustrated because I had been asking him to send me pictures so that I could post them on my blog. He had sent me one on his phone but it didn't turn out so good so I never posted. Then last night I found these pictures and assumed they were of his wipe out. But this morning I was looking more carefully and remembered his wreck was at night and he doesn't keep his keys on his belt loop AND he is much TANNER than in the picture. HMMMM.... guess what? One of Cory's friends had a wipe out too and those were HIS pictures! Too funny! Anyway, you can still feel sorry for Matt and the picture with the "paddle" at the bottom of the page really is of Matt.
Oh Boy- I really messed up good this time!

Can you say OUCH?
Well- All the men in my house are obsessed with their skateboards. Cory had one before we left to go to Cali but Rod and Matt both bought boards when we were there. Matt's friend Jasper had to join in the fun too. This is the collection of boards that you see as you enter my front room. Yes, It has become the MAN ROOM. It seems like every night they go out late to go boarding. Remember- we're in AZ! Nobody in their right mind would do that in the middle of the day in August!
Anyway, not long ago Matt came home pretty late (I was already in bed) wanting to know where my camera was. I was dead asleep and mumbled something incoherent. An hour later I got up because there seemed to be a lot of commotion going on downstairs for that late at night. Apparently Matt was going down a hill and went full speed into a sand bag and of course went flying. Here is the damage...
I'm not sure but I think the board won this battle!
He has now resorted to using this when he goes out...
Boys NEVER grow up! Gotta love 'em!

Oregon State quarterback Sean Mannion has football in his blood
LOS ANGELES – Under the tutelage of Mike Riley and his staff, Oregon State quarterback Sean Mannion has turned into one of the nation's most prolific passers. But his development as a quarterback started long before his days in Corvallis: The 6-5 senior was brought up by his father and high school football coach, John Mannion.
Guiding Sean from a young age, John served as one of Sean's high school coaches at Foothill High School in Pleasanton, California. He then took a coaching job 50 miles outside of Corvallis during Sean's redshirt year at Oregon State.
[Related Watch Mike Riley on Pac-12 Networks' Media Day Special]
Sean touched on how he and his father interact these days at Pac-12 Football Media Day on Thursday.
"As I have come to college and he has moved to a different program in Oregon, there has kind of been a separation in terms of he is not coaching me anymore, he is just 'Dad.' He is just supporting me, just trying to help me the ways that he can outside of football," the Oregon State quarterback said.
Sean expressed that having his dad nearby throughout his college career has been great for the both of them, but also pointed out that having him as his high school coach was crucial to his development.
"Growing up in high school and playing for him, that was a great experience," he said. "The best thing it did for me was just give me exposure to the game. Getting to play catch with him in the front yard, getting to tag along with him to practice just to hang out with my dad. That was special growing up."
[Related Mike Riley once disciplined Curtis Conway, maybe]
Mike Riley has noticed how having a head football coach for a father has molded Sean as an athlete.
"I know his dad pretty well, and his dad is a really good football coach," Riley said. "I would imagine that some of that has rubbed off. Sean has that love of the game and the work ethic that goes into the game, and I think that could very well be from the character of John Mannion."

Novellas: LOVE IT OR NAH?
First let's figure out what in the world a novella is?
a short novel or long short story.
Okay, so novellas are a 'love it or eh..." thing for readers I've been noticing.
Some readers don't care to read it, because they don't think it contributes to the world and characters they love so much.
Some want to read the novella because it gives added character perspectives and and connects you more.
And some just don't read them. AT ALL.
I'm the type of person who has to read the novella and then decide if I ever read it again will I skip it or read it again? The other part of me is super scared if I read it it'll either make me love a certain character more. UGH. #ReaderStruggles
I've read quite a few novellas in my 21, almost 22 years and there are some that I wish I didn't read, some that made me change my view on a character it was amazing and some 'eh' ones.
Destroy Me made me turn the love I had for Warner into love. Yes, it was that good. It destroyed me.
Roar + Liv made my heart break for Roar. *le sigh*

Fashionable Eyeglasses
I have my own sense of fashion. I have my own style and looks and as much as possible, I do not want to mimic others. I usually wear polo and pants but one thing that makes me identical is my eyeglasses. I never go out without wearing any eyeglasses. It's not that I have a poor eye sight so I have wear it everyday, it's just that I feel very comfortable with my eyeglasses. Usually, I match my eyeglasses with my clothes. Let us say for example, I am wearing a dark colored shirt, definitely I will wear a lighter one or a transparent eyeglasses just to give balance to it. The same thing goes with the light colored shirts in which I wear shaded glasses. When it comes to eyeglasses, there's only one brand name that I am trusting with, and that is Zenni Optical. Zenni Optical is considered as The #1 online Rx glasses store for providing glasses with high quality, undoubtable durability and providing Lowest Price Progressive Glasses online. If you want proofs, why don't you check Eric's Review of Zenni Optical? And find out how much you can benefit in using Zenni Optical.

Auto Insurance Quotes
I am a type of guy who thinks about my future. I always secure myself and prepare my future needs. I try to save money from my work because I know the fact that I will need it in the near future. Some of them may say that I am too young to think of my future but I am not getting any younger anymore. From time to time, things will change and no one could ever tell what will happen next. That's why I am securing my self. From the very simple things up to the biggest, I always make sure that I have alternative plans for them in case I failed. Same thing goes with my car, instead of paying too much attention in decorating it by buying some cool stuffs and gadget onto it; I would rather focus first on having car insurance. Because no matter how effort you exert to make your car more appealing, if something bad happen, an accident for example, those efforts will be useless and you will go home with nothing. Unlike if you have car insurance, you can make up all those lose again as you will be paid by the insurance company. However, you have to make sure that you are dealing with well-trusted auto insurance quotes online or much better if you compare auto insurance quotes first before applying to any company so that they will not leave you hanging and waiting for nothing. Insuring my car is just one of the ways of ensuring my future. Same thing goes with my education health and home.

Future Events Have a habit of Not Showing Up
Do not become fearful of future events. The confident, effortless way of life is best. Accept and meet challenges as they arise without becoming fearful of them. Imagine the fulfillment of your desires. See them taking place in your mind's eye. Feel confident about every undertaking. Know that you will succeed and have the utmost faith in that fact. Leave each day aas it comes. "Tomorrow' is a term of reference for a future time. Therefore, worrying about some problem that may or may not be around in the future is a waste of brain power. Confront problems each day as they arise. Give no thought to negative situations that threaten you in so-called "Tomorrow". Future events have a habit of changing their nature and sometimes of not taking place at all. The wise man gives no concern for hazy future events,. but instead, concentrates his energy on meeting the challenges as they confront him.

Grow by Meeting Challenges Head on
You grow to greatness by meeting challenges and successfully overcoming the problems that arise from them. Take on challenges necessary for growth. Meet them face to face and determine to conquer them. Success is found when you do something about it constructively and creatively. You are not a creature of circumstance but a free agent with your destiny resting squarely on you own shoulders. Ideas must be created, goals planned and challenges of success taken up. Persistent effort, faith, the application of affirmative thought principles are the scientific ways of ensuring success.
You are in business for yourself. train your mind to accept the fact that every set back, every step forward, is a means of growing into success. A single failure does not man permanent failure, nor does one success mean permanent success unless you use that initial success as a stepping stone to a higher plateau and further creative accomplishments.
Life is action. keep moving ahead in life regardless of the seemingly insurmountable problem that may arise. You are born to win and you can win if you believe strongly enough in this fact.

You Succeed When You Think Success
Miracles will occur in your life when you used the power of your mind in an affirmative way and when you come to a realization that the only thing that separates you from success or failure is the way you "Think", "Feel", and "Believe.
As you think and believed each hour of each day, you automatically plant "success" or "failure" seeds in your deeper mind. Our Habitual thinking pattern nurtures this seeds to bring forth success or failure.Think and feel that you can and you will succeed. Believe it!
We have many innate talents waiting to be developed. Discover them. Nurture them. Believe that your talents are worthy of high accomplishments and you will experience it.
"belief a victory is always a battle won"

How-To: Get a Boutique Hotel-Feel Bedroom
James Lohan, who, along with his wife, authors the Mr & Mrs Smith boutique and luxury hotel guides, knows his way around a hotel room. So it's no surprise that LivingEtc recently asked him to share some tips with readers on the topic. His mission? To help ordinary citizens like you and me create a boutique hotel feeling in our own bedrooms.
To get his tips,
Here are Lohan's tips:
- Mix it up. Use different patterns in complementary colors, play with scale, or contrast masculine and feminine by upholstering a pretty chair in some masculine tailoring stripes.
- Add vibrancy to all-white rooms with accent colors. Introducing a simple throw, colorful cushions or a piece of painted furniture is an easy way to lift neutrals and add character.
- Go for glamour. Dark color schemes create a sensual atmosphere and tactile fabrics intensify the luxurious feel.
- Indulge in some "gilty" pleasures. Gilt frames have real impact, or try other metallic touches such as Tom Dixon's Copper Shade lights or Osborne & Little's metallic wallpapers.
- If space permits, bring your bath into the bedroom or replace a wall with a window so that the bedroom looks into the en suite. Baths in stone, brass, or even wood make a real statement.
- Create a sense of individuality by adding personal treasures, finds from your travels, or artwork to create a focus.

Beauty in Blood is Jen Lewis' first conceptual art series. She has been working on the project since November 2012. The series follows her menstrual cycle, and each month she photographs her blood to showcase menstruation in a new light. Her photographs are beautiful, abstract, and conceptual - a beautiful illustration of bioartography. Of her work, Lewis says, "weaves together my love of the abstract, conceptual, feminist and pop art movements."
Here are some of my favorite works from the ongoing series.

Who Knew An Angel Could Get A Girl In So Much Devilish Trouble?
Jackie Brighton woke up in a Dumpster this morning, and her day has only gotten weirder. Her familiar B-cups have somehow become double Ds, her sex drive is insatiable, and apparently she had her first one-night stand ever...with a fallen angel. All she remembers is gorgeous Noah's oddly hypnotic blue eyes...and then a dark stranger whose bite transformed her into an immortal siren with a sexy itch. With help from Noah, Jackie begins to adapt to her new lifestyle; until she accidentally sends Noah into the deadly clutches of the vampire queen and lands herself in a fierce battle for an ancient halo with the queen's wickedly hot righthand man. Who just happens to be the vampire who originally bit her. How's a girl supposed to save the world when the enemy's so hard to resist?
Ever since reading the Georgina Kincaid series by Richelle Mead I'm always looking for more books about Succubi. I tried Succubus in the City by Nina Harper but couldn't finish. And after reading this one I'm really glad I missed my train that one day, and had no other option than spend some time in the bookstore at Grand Central..
Jackie is a witty and hilarious girl who wakes up in a dumpster and finds out that she's now a succubus. Because of this interesting opening chapter I was immediately hooked. Finished it within 24 hours because I couldn't stop reading. It was too bad I had to go to sleep and stop reading, otherwise I would've finished it in one sitting. Yes, I liked it that much.
Noah seemed like the perfect guy for Jackie at first. Kind, caring and understanding. Oh, and a super sexy body. But then there was Zane. *Sigh* Now that's a man, or well, a vampire, who can come visit me any time he likes. Of course this means the typical love-triangle lots of writers seem to like so much. And so do I! I'm a sucker for love-triangles actually. And with this series I'm very much team Zane.
I loved the epilogue, which you ladies will definitely understand after reading it. The thing that makes me give it 4,5 stars is the part before that. Some things didn't make sense to me but I can't talk about this without giving spoilers, so if you want to know what I'm talking about, you can always contact me. Overall it was a very fun and sexy read. Looking forward to part two!

Code Revisions Spur Change in Texas Climate
Mesquite, Texas
For now, the revolution in public education in Texas is only visible in out-of-the-way places, like the corner of John Horn's desk.
When the meticulous superintendent of schools here looks down this morning, he sees nothing but the dark wood grain of his desktop. To Mr. Horn and many other superintendents around the state, a clear spot like this is testament enough that things are changing.
"The information I used to get from the state would be stacked there three or four inches high, daily," Mr. Horn said. "When you figure in all the reporting that we would have to send back, I guess it took trucks to carry it all."
Now there are occasional packages. Sometimes nothing.
Last year, the Texas legislature took on the monstrous task of rewriting the state's education laws. In a year when conservative legislators across the country decided that public schools needed a swift dose of deregulation, Texas led the way.
By the time lawmakers were finished, gone were 46 years of accumulated rules and regulations. The state school board cut its list of rules from 490 to 230.
"They used to tell us how to do everything," Mr. Horn recalled. "Down to when the principal could use the intercom."
The state education department cut 185 of its more than 1,000 employees and is bracing for the loss of 50 more. The department is limiting its focus to meeting state goals, setting a core curriculum, administering state tests, overseeing a state accountability system, and trumpeting model practices.
"We want to challenge school districts to improve without trying to get involved in how," said Mike Moses, the Texas education commissioner.
The new system allows districts to adopt their own textbooks, lets them grant teaching permits to non-certified teachers, and calls for more discussions about the route communities and schools will take to improve.
The experiment here and in other states begins to reverse a decade of reforms that assigned more and more duties to public schools and spelled out exactly how the work would be done.
Texas lawmakers now believe motivating--and allowing--local educators to find their own way will bring higher achievement. And the state is becoming a laboratory for how much freedom school districts actually want and what they will do with it.
Halfway through the first school year under the new school code, the changes are hardly visible. Teachers report hearing about changes but cannot name many they have made, and principals interrupt on the intercom at familiar intervals.
"You are going to see the change right now in the board room," said Mr. Moses, who spent 13 years as a local superintendent in Texas before becoming the state commissioner last year. "But it has to happen there before it will get to the classroom."
Indeed, district-level administrators who form the link between state regulators and local classrooms are seeing a new approach from the education department that is remarkably uncharacteristic of a Texas school bureaucracy.
The Texas Education Agency, once one of the nation's largest and most demanding state education departments, is coaching districts on their newfound options. And superintendents are taking advantage of a waiver program that lets them seek relief from remaining regulations. Over the past seven months, the TEA has granted 1,258 waiver requests.
"We've got a lot of people who are used to saying, 'Tell me what to do,"' Mr. Horn said. "But you can't do things just because the state agency says so anymore. You have to do what you believe in and what will work because it is good for kids."
No Home-Rule Takers
As the rhetoric over deregulation spread last year in Texas, the vision certainly went further than what seems to have taken root over the past few months in the state's schools.
The law provided for open enrollment in districts across the state. In concept, that would allow parents to pull their children from low-achieving districts and send them to better schools elsewhere.
But nearly all of the more than 400 parents who have tried to opt for a new school have been turned away because many Texas districts are declining to accept out-of-district students.
Another provision that would allow the creation of up to 20 new charter schools that could operate free from many state rules has drawn little interest.
And the law's most highly touted feature--the creation of "home-rule school districts" encumbered by only the most basic laws and rules--has yet to find any takers.
Officials of the Plano school district north of Dallas had been among the most vocal backers of the home-rule idea. Forced by the state's school-finance program to pay $16 million of its local property-tax proceeds to the state, the 38,300-student district is interested in almost any idea that will stretch its $184 million budget.
But Superintendent Doug Otto said that, for now, the home-rule option does not offer enough relief to warrant the time it would take to draft an application and lobby local voters.
"We wonder if it would alienate Teachers to waive class-size requirements, we wonder what would happen to the school board if we moved to a home-rule commission, and there is so much more," Mr. Otto explained.
Like many other school administrators, he is optimistic that the law's other regulatory changes provide the bulk of the freedom districts have been seeking.
"With the flexibility of waivers and the TEA reorganization, we have a whole new climate in which we can operate," Mr. Otto said. "Now, there isn't that much of a felt need for home rule."
Over the past several years, many states have revamped their education departments. Others have recently passed laws making it easier to win waivers from state regulations.
Some states have gone further: A bill passed late last year by the Michigan legislature that would overhaul the state's massive education code awaits the signature of Gov. John Engler.
In California, Gov. Pete Wilson last week urged lawmakers to tackle a rewrite of that state's 11-volume education code. "It makes the IRS code look like a Dick and Jane reader," Mr. Wilson said.
Gov. George W. Bush of Texas has explained that his state's approach of offering many decentralization and deregulation strategies to local districts--including those that are yet to be accepted--leaves them with few excuses for failure.
"This is all about self-determination," Mr. Horn of Mesquite said.
The new climate also includes creation of a system of alternative schools. The new education code gives Teachers broad authority to remove unruly students from their classrooms, but requires districts to have "second chance" programs for children who might previously have been suspended or expelled.
Districts Uncertain
Both Mr. Otto and Mr. Horn are working with neighboring superintendents to create regional or countywide alternative schools.
Superintendents across Texas are also huddling with lawyers to get a grasp on new contract-negotiation rules, new school-improvement programs, and what the revisions in the state's testing program and no-pass, no-play rules for student athletes will mean in their districts.
"Every time you read this code you find something different," Mr. Otto, the Plano schools chief, said.
Mr. Horn, in his 18th year as a Texas superintendent, said he is pleased to see the state taking a direction that might put districts in a better position to meet lawmakers' goals.
"We are seeing a shift in the notion which used to be, 'We want excellence and we're going to tell you how to get it and hold your feet to the fire,"' Mr. Horn said. "People are realizing that you don't get excellence by regulation. It comes from competence and commitment."

We had completed more than half of our trip as we crossed over to Kyoto-Osaka on day 5. The main highlights for day 5 will be visiting The Golden Pavilion, Kiyomizu Temple and in the evening shopping at Shinsaibashi.
Started the day with buffet breakfast at International Hotel Nagoya. Then we took off a long bus ride to The Golden Pavilion.
Had some cooling desserts at the Tsuchiyama Service Area. Due to heavy traffic jam, by then we reached Kyoto was time for lunch.
Lunch was the typical Japanese set that we were being served the last few days. Haha... can't stop complaining!
After lunch, a short ride to The Golden Pavilion. On the way we caught a glimpse of Kamogawa River.
The Golden Pavilion / Kinkakuji Temple which is properly called Rokuon-ji Temple, built in 1934 and the present structure is covered with gold plate. It is a replica of the original destroyed by Arson in 1955. It was inscribed as World Cultural Heritage in 1994.
Next was to Nishijn Textile Center where a Kimono show was specially line up. Here you find a great variety of traditional craft works that Kyoto is famous.
The Kimono Show. The models showcase a variety of elegant kimonos. The show lasted approximately 15mins and it's an hourly affair starting from 10am to 4pm.
After the show, we proceed to Kiyomizu Temple, part of UNESCO World Heritage. Due to the massive traffic jam again, we had to alight more than 1 km away and walk to the temple. On the way there are many little shops selling hand made porcelain/ceramic wares.
To be continued in "Best of Honshu - Japan Trip Day 5 Part II (21st Sep 2009)"...stay tune!

2 St. Cloud Men Arrested In Alexandria After Alleged Pot Sale
ALEXANDRIA - Two St. Cloud men are in jail after allegedly bringing a large amount of drugs to Alexandria.
Investigators from the Central Minnesota Violent Offenders Task Force, and the West Central Minnesota Drug Task Force, got a tip last Friday that a transaction involving a large amount of marijuana was going to happen in Alexandria.
Investigators allegedly watched 22-year-old Derek Glynn of St. Cloud come out of his apartment with a large plastic garbage bag and put it in the trunk of a car. The car is owned by 22-year-old Aaron Christensen of St. Cloud. Police then followed them to Alexandria to the Wal-Mart parking lot. Once the transaction took place, Christensen and Glynn were arrested.
The garbage bag contained an alleged 6.7 pounds of marijuana, and about 3.8 grams of suspected Ecstasy.
An additional 20 pounds of marijuana was found in Glynn's apartment, along with other controlled substances, possibly methamphetamine, heroin, and cocaine. Nearly $14,000 was cash was also found in the apartment.
They are being held in the Douglas County Jail.
