Need more desktop work space? Add a second monitor! Run a lot of applications? Add more RAM! Have a lot of documents, photos, or videos? Add a larger hard drive! Need computing power? Upgrade the CPU! Making videos? Add a video card!
Our upgrade guide has detailed explanations of what each component upgrade does for you.
Apple Desktops
21.5-inch iMac
Optional Retina Display
The iMac provides an all-in-one solution with its high resolution display, variety of ports, and included peripherals. It contains more than enough computing power to get any and all work done and does so in a simple package. The included Productivity Apps let you get to work immediately, and the iOS integration means you never miss a thing whether you are at your desk or away from the keyboard.
Mac Mini

If you are not looking to spend a lot, the Mac Mini provides good performance at a reduced cost with the performance of a desktop packed into a small space. The Mac Mini does not come with peripherals so any screens, mice, and keyboards will have to be provided.
27-inch iMac
Retina Display
Looking for more? The 27-inch iMac crams more detail into an all-in-one package with its built-in 5K Retina display. With all the features of the 21.5-inch iMac, this one cuts no corners with its larger display, much faster processor, and a dedicated graphics unit.

Upgrade Guide
There are plenty of different parts that can be upgraded in a computer so it's important to know what each upgrade means to get the best possible configuration.
Upgrading the CPU is like upgrading the brain of a computer. The CPU is where all the work gets done so any programs that do a lot of calculation such as compiling programs or any financial/scientific modeling will get a lot out of a stronger CPU.
Upgrading the RAM is like getting a bigger desk; having more RAM means that your computer can handle large amounts of data, such as large, complex spreadsheets with plenty of data, high resolution photos, and a large number of programs or internet browser tabs at once.
SSDs and hard drives are the storage component of a computer; it's where the computer's operating system, programs, and all of your documents are stored on your computer. Hard drives generally have large sizes and can hold a lot of data but they can take some time to load or save any information. SSDs, on the other hand, are very fast and can save and load information much faster than a hard drive, but they are more expensive and come in smaller sizes.
Upgrading the video card increases a computer's ability to perform complex photo or video editing; a stronger card helps with viewing any 4K video content and making high-definition videos.
Upgrading monitors by getting a higher resolution monitor or getting a second monitor is great for anyone who wants to see and cross reference a lot of information quickly. Another monitor needs more physical desk space but generally increase productivity by keeping multiple windows visible at once.

The Most Overused English Language Word
There was a time when we all had fun in Year 10 English with Mrs Mary Cheatham. In one particular class she stood up the front and took her glasses off and gave us a very serious look. As she did this she asked a question.
"What is the most overused word in the English language?" And before anybody could answer she said...
"Oh, no. I can't believe that she is going to say 'f*#k'" I thought.
"It's 'bloody'". Phew.
I have come across a new word that I feel is more appropriate for the title. It's "terrorist". It pops up everyday and in almost every utterance from the Bush Administration puppets. Little Johnny Howard has picked up this new word and brandishes it about at every opportunity.
Don't you think that some of the aura surrounding "terrorist" has disappeared? It is so passe these days to call someone a terrorist. It's almost like a swear word that has lost its effectiveness.
What Does The Singaporean Government Think Will Stop The Terrorists?
While we are on the subject of terrorists, I read an interesting article today. The Singapore Government wants to crack down on prepaid mobile phones because terrorists use them. Simple as that. Prepaid mobiles allow the user to remain anonymous and terrorists seem to quite like the idea of anonymity. Who would have thought?
Let's not stop at banning that tool of terror, the prepaid mobile phone, let's go the whole hog. Why don't we ban Combis (if that is the van of choice of the terrorists), how about the clothes that terrorists wear, maybe the brand of cigarettes that they smoke? How come email is still allowed to be used by the general public? After all, it allows terrorists to communicate with a fair degree of anonymity and could be considered to be a tool of terrorism. Gosh, if they were all Arabs why not ban the speaking of Arabic?
What a stupid stance the Singapore Government has taken. That's right - take away the liberty of people who do no wrong because of a few bad eggs. I am surprised that TVs are still used in Singapore because people can swear on TV and offend millions of people.
Are there no forward-thinking statemen anymore? How blinkered can governments become?
I'm known as a Frugal Bastard as I'm careful with my money and don't like wastage. I travel a bit, take lots of photos, make videos and like sharing my own silly opinions on stupid things and spelling mistakes that I discover in the media. Political comment and satire have a place close to my heart. I also major in sarcasm.

"Xiomara is the epitome of a true professional. She patiently worked with my husband and I to formulate a plan for a complete home renovation of our over one hundred year old home which optimized our space with very settle, yet transformative changes. The entire process, from conceptualization, to variance approval, to realization was effortless with Xiomara's oversight. She is truly a pleasure to work with! Additionally, her staff is very knowledgeable, personable and accommodating. We absolutely love our "new" old home and would highly recommend Paredes-Grube Architects to anyone considering a renovation.
Thank you Xiomara!!"
-Suzanne & Brendan O, Ridgewood, 2017
"Xiomara was a pleasure to work with. She was extremely professional, easy to talk to, and realistic about working within our budget. Most importantly she was able to update our 1926 home. Keeping with the old feel of the home while updating it with an open floor plan. She also listened to what was on our wish list and made sure to include everything that we hoped for in the best way possible. We also needed to get the impossible done....getting a very difficult variance so we can build a master bedroom. Xiomara went to the variance meeting prepared with a very detailed presentation and convincing argument. Needless to say the variance was approved due to her diligence, hard work, and research she put forth. We would not have our dream home with 4 bedrooms without Xiomara's expertise and hard work. She is the best in the area and we have already recommended her to all our friends."
-Alyse & Scott M, Glen Rock, 2017
"Paredes-Grube Architecture designed the conversion of our balcony into a master bed/bath extension and the conversion of an outdoor patio into an enclosed sun room. They did this while maintaining the integrity of the external and internal design of the house. As the President of Waterworks, I have high expectations for design integrity; I admire the results from Xiomara's work."
-Ralph & Claire B, Ridgewood, 2017
"Xiomara Paredes from Paredes-Grube Architecture did an exceptional job with the remodeling of our kitchen. The team was very friendly and professional. I highly recommend this firm and would use them again in future jobs."
-Carolina V, Ridgewood, 2017
"I cannot say enough good things about working with Xiomara and her team! We interviewed 3 different architects and knew immediately we were going to hire Xiomara during the first couple minutes of her initial consult. She had such great ideas and vision for our project. Her team of junior arhcitects were so friendly and polite and extremely helpful. I would highly recommend hiring Xiomara and I have already referred her to several other home owners!"
-Robert A, Glen Rock, 2017
"For going on 15 years we have been building projects designed by Xiomara and her team. We have found her plans to be thorough, creative, and easy to work with. We highly recommend Paredes-Grube Architecture and have hired them ourselves to design our new homes. "
-Glenn Sternitzke, Contractor
"We have worked with Xiomara and the Paredes-Grube group twice over the years and have been exceptionally pleased both times. We own a 115 year old home and Xiomara was able to honor and respect the original architecture of the home while seamlessly providing for more modern rooms and amenities within. I highly recommend Xiomara and her team of professionals."
-Ken & Kathleen M, Ridgewood, 2016
"We have worked with Xiomara twice. She designed our addition and helped with our kitchen renovation. In addition to her work being beautiful, accurate and structurally sound, she is extremely responsive and accessible, and a pleasure to work with. Her recommendations have always been spot on."
-Sharon & Jeff I, Glen Rock, 2016
"Xiomara and her group are really great. Everyone is super attentive and cooperative with our needs. Designing a renovation is extremely personal and we feel our needs and desires are being listened to when working with this group. We are working with a small space and Xiomara has manged to work this small space well!"
-Courtney G, Wyckoff, 2016
"Our company, Barabas Contracting, has had the opportunity to work with Xiomara and her team on multiple projects in our area for over a decade. We are always impressed with Xiomara's original design concepts and the high regard given to her clients needs and wishes. Xiomara and her team are professional, well organized and easy to collaborate with. We look forward to many more years of successful projects with Paredes-Grube."
-Gary Barabas, Contractor
"Xiomara is the highest level of professional. It was a true partnership using her years of experience and expertise, with the utmost respect for our individual needs. Best of all, she was a good listener, patient and never minded taking the time to educate us on options so we could make informed decisions. Of all the people we encountered during our renovation, Xiomara and her team are on the top of the list of whom we will recommend using for others embarking on the journey."
-Glenn & Sona M, Oradell, 2015
"It was a pleasure working with Xiomara. She was professional, easy to work with and very creative. She was easy to reach and very helpful throughout during the duration of my project. I would highly recommend Paredes-Grube Architecture."
-John & Georgia P, Paramus, 2015
"Xiomara's designs are always unique and second to none. As the builder, her total professionalism is very much appreciated and will always greatly contribute to any project. We always enjoy working with her and her very helpful and talented team."
-Doug Mowery, Contractor
"Xiomara and her team were a joy to work with on my unique garage addition and made the process very manageable, including the variance process with the township. She has a keen understanding of what works best for her clients and goes out of her way to make sure they are satisfied. Our experience with her was so positive, that we also consulted with her on our home renovation. As she is highly professional and timely, I would undoubtedly use her again in the future."
-Myke B, Wyckoff, 2015
"I am very grateful to Xiomara and her team. Xiomara listened to our ideas and used her knowledge and vision to transform our one story ranch into a beautiful center hall colonial that was within our budget. Xiomara was very forthcoming with her knowledge of the area which truly prepared us for what was to come. She was also very helpful by providing reputable vendors that were instrumental to the completion of our house, i.e. contractor, painter, kitchen, etc. We love our home and we loved working with the entire team at Paredes-Grube Architecture."
-Cristal & Jason W, 2015
"We had a great experience working with Paredes-Grube Architecture. Xiomara is a great listener. She took a big wish list and made it happen. She did an amazing job transforming our bi-level ranch into a colonial. We love everything about the house and would highly recommend Paredes-Grube."
-Jen & Gregory H, Oradell, 2015
"As a building professional a great architect is a major part of a successful project, I gives me genuine pleasure to recommend Xiomara she is one of the best I have worked with."
-Rich DeLuccia, Contractor
"Xiomara and her team are the best! They worked with my ideas for my home addition and nailed the design to perfection. We are extremely satisfied. AAA +++"
-Tim G, Ridgewood, 2014
"Our experience working with Xiomara was great! Her creativity, experience and personality worked together to make a seemingly overwhelming renovation project a less complex undertaking. My wife and I would highly recommend using Xiomara as her work far exceeded our expectations."
-Joe T, 2014
"I have used Xiomara for two different projects. M Both have been terrific successes and completed on schedule and within our budgets! The first project was a totally redesign and upgrade of our kitchen, dining and rear entrance for our NJ Suburban home. Xiomara created a beautiful, light-filled flowing space, connecting all areas. Jut great! Xiomara also helped us design a open and functional Master Bathroom, showier, dressing and storage area in a messy corner of our New York Apartment. Again, a wonderful solution of architecture, color, lighting and fixtures. She really pulls all elements of design into her elegant solutions!"
-Fritz & Ingrid R, Glen Rock, 2014
"We had a wonderful experience working with Paredes Grube Architecture. Our home was a 1940's Tudor/ Colonial that we loved. However we had grown out of this house. Xiomara effortlessly transformed our house into our dream home while keeping the charm of our existing home. She is well known in our area as a "master of her trade"."
-Amy & Kevin E, Oradell, 2014
"Paredes-Grube was the architect for a three story addition to our 1920's tudor. The PG team did an excellent job integrating the old with the new for a seamless and timeless design. The design maximized functionality and beauty. The team was easy to work with and was receptive to our special requests."
-Susan & Ira A, Ridgewood, 2014
"We just finished an addition to our home fully designed by Xiomara and we couldn't be happier.
She not only solved the problem of real steep and dangerous stairways to the third floor (where we have our master space) but also added a much-needed social area powder room and a spectacular mudroom. Her design was extremely creative and well thought out to maximize the space. It added light, openness and value to our home. The house's functionality was completely transformed from a traditional 1920's Tutor to a practical home of modern times without disrupting its style.
I have received several compliments from neighbors that the addition looks like it had always been there, as the same preserves the original design of the house.
Xiomara and her staff are outstanding professionals, courteous and responsive.
I would recommend Xiomara any time; she is concise, creative and provides good guidance in terms of what would work best for your home to solve your particular requirements. On top of that she is a great person and has a good sense of humor."
-Elisa & Alejandro R, Ridgewood, 2014
"We highly recommend Xiomara and her team. They were very professional, met deadlines and kept us focused. We had a challenging lot and a large wishlist and she delivered a design that was practical and worked with the confines of the town regulations.
Xiomara was a pleasure to work with and extremely accommodating. We were nervous but she was reassuring and had an excellent bedside manner. She was also extremely helpful in doing things outside her scope of work including recommending exceptional contractors.
It had been 6 months since our renovation has been completed and we could not be happier with every design decision she implemented. There is not anything we would have done differently. Her supportive staff was very helpful and responsive. From a style perspective she stayed within the style of the neighborhood despite it being a large addition. We would use her again in a heartbeat. Xiomara designed several houses on our block which gave us confidence in her.
Lastly, when we went through the variance process, she outshined all the other architects with her presentation by a mile and it made us very happy with our decision,"
-Lisa & Joseph D, Ridgewood, 2013
"The services provided were outstanding. From start to finish, the project was explained in great detail. We were walked through every step so there were no surprises. The attention to detail was amazon. Parades-Grube was phenomenal and I would recommend highly."
-Michael & Danielle F, Glen Rock, 2013
"Home Supply has worked, in conjunction, with Xiomara Paredes for many years, on many reconstruction projects. Her company, Paredes-Grube Architecture, has mastered the art of classic design. She is expertly skilled in creating maximum usage and style of space while maintaining the original design character and integrity of the residence. Xiomara beams intelligence and good humor, making her a pleasure to work with on any design plan."
-Charlie Verhoeg, Home Supply & Lumber Center, Kitchen Designer
"Paredes-Grube designed an addition to our 1930's Dutch-Colonial home. Xiomara, the principal architect, was wonderful to work with. Her ideas about space, especially in terms of how the flow of a busy family home should work, were insightful. Most importantly for us, the new space (kitchen, family room, mudroom, and master bed/bath on second floor) seems to blend perfectly with the old. You would never know that the new space wasn't part of the original home. The architectural details make everything seamless. We are so happy that we chose Paredes-Grube Architecture. They were extremely professional, listened to our needs and delivered a masterful plan. We love our new home and couldn't be happier with the outcome."
-Suzanne & George Z, Glen Rock, 2012
"Xiomara and her staff were a pleasure to work with. They were very accommodating and made us feel at ease with the construction. The kitchen and master bath turned out to be everything we could of imagined and more. Xiomara also designed our front entrance to our home in 2014 and again were very pleased with her designs. The final product was exactly what we wanted. We would use Xiomara again for any future projects."
-Lucy & Robert S, Glen Rock, 2010
We also needed to get the impossible done....getting a very difficult variance... Needless to say the variance was approved due to her diligence, hard work, and research she put forth.

2017 Mazda CX4 Review, Redesign, Price
It looks like Mazda manufacturers tried to make the vehicles which will make you completely in love with both its outfit and immaculate equipment. One of such vehicles will be super-cool 2017 Mazda CX4 which will make you attractive and give you a powerful feeling like no other vehicle can. What it so specific about it will be described in the text that follows so pay attention and get ready to be overwhelmed.
2017 Mazda CX4 Review Interior, Exterior
The appearance of the new 2017 Mazda CX4 will leave you breathless. Its muscular body will be wonderfully sculptured with sensational curves and long sharp nose part which will be provided with quite urban grille and cat-eye like LED headlights which will contribute to its lavishness and better visibility. The greatest improvement happened in the fuel efficiency section which was drastically improved due to the lightweight platform used in creation of the vehicle. With its new design they created a completely new level of glamour and creativeness. It will be a full-size SUV rolling on a potent 21-inch alloy wheels which will make the spectators stop and stare at its beauty.
The interior design of the upcoming 2017 Mazda CX4 will easily match the beauty of its exterior design and will be even much more intriguing. There will be the amazing combination of the Japanese rosewood and metallic accents as decorative details applied on top quality Nappa leather which will cover most of the inner surfaces. The cabin will be roomy, illuminated by the ambient lighting and will accommodate easily five passengers and their luggage as well. The dashboard will be polished and highly equipped with the interactive display, HD audio system with speakers, full power accessorize, air-conditioner and Wi-Fi connection.
2017 Mazda CX4 Engine
Due to the fact that new 2017 Mazda CX4 is rather short of varied engine options we cannot say that it is performance oriented but that the major focus has been put on its makeup. The powertrains used will be a 2.0-liter SkyActiv unit of 155 horsepower along with thrilling 150 pound-feet of torque, then there will be a 2.5-liter SkyActiv with the output of 184 horsepower as well as 185 pound-feet of torque and alternative 2.2-liter diesel engine with the production of 173 horses and 310 pound-feet. Each and every engine will be twinned with either a six-speed manual or automatic transmission system.
2017 Mazda CX4 Price, Relese date
There is a great likelihood of seeing the official announcement of the 2017 Mazda CX4 production and detailed specifications at the 2016 Beijing International Automotive Exhibition which will happen on the 29th of April and we are completely excited about it. The price will be official after the show but till then we have to say that 2017 Mazda CX4 is estimated on a $30 000 which makes it a real deal.

Gaz claims to have bedded one thousand women, so he was lucky only six of them were waiting for him at the breakfast table while filming. The play boy was however surprised when he realised he'd slept with each and every one of them, including those he didn't remember having anything to do with.
"We don't tell them [producers] who we've been with. I don't know how they find them. They found one person for me and I do not know how they found them. The problem is it's not just big exes, it's one night stands and then you are f**ked.
You are not going to remember them. I'm like 'Really? Are you here for me? There was one point I was having breakfast with six of the girls and I thought 'I have slept with everyone at the table'."

HB 2377 emerged last week as the tax increase most likely to make it out of the Legislature and on to the ballot this fall. But this afternoon its sponsor, Rep. Eric Pettigrew, said it's dead.
This is good news, but anything can still happen. There are a few other tax proposals out there, and interest groups like SEIU are still lobbying hard for HB 2377.
The session is going to last until at least Sunday, and any matter of compromises or ideas could materialize before then. Today has been a good day, but stay in contact with your legislators and keep monitoring Olympia until the session is over. We know we will.

February 14, 2009 Clark Erickson, PhD, University of Pennsylvania: "Pre-Columbian Monumental Earthworks of the Amazon"
Traditionally, archaeologists have believed the vast Amazon region of South America to be a cultural backwater compared to the better-known civilizations that developed in the Americas. Scholars stress the limitations of tropical environments and lack of critical technological innovations to sustain large dense populations, intensive agriculture, monumental architecture, urban centers, and complex forms of society: the foundations of any civilization and complex societies. In recent years, the documentation of raised field agriculture, anthropogenic, or human created, black earth, managed forests, hydraulic engineering, and dense large settlements for several regions of the Amazon has questioned traditional assumptions about lack of cultural development. The anthropogenic black earth, which contained organic refuse, charcoal and potsherds is a particularly vital feature of the Amazon region. Its layers can be up to 3 meters deep, and it is regularly mined for use by current farmers. Much evidence of anthropogenic husbandry can still be found throughout the region: seen in patches of manioc and sweet potatoes, as well as stands of chocolate and non-native fruit trees.
In collaboration with a small team of Bolivian archaeologists during 2007 and 2008, Dr. Erickson documented over a hundred examples of a fascinating form of monumental earthworks called ring ditches or geoglyphs, which he described in his talk. Many of these earthworks, as well as accompanying raised fields, canals and roads, could only be identified by aerial photography and satellite imagery. Dr. Erickson actually identified raised fields in the savanna using Google Earth. The ditches and embankments encircle areas of several acres to nearly a square mile. Some earthworks are precisely constructed in geometric patterns, such as circles, ellipses, and squares that suggest a clear concern for landscape design, appearance, and aesthetics. Deep ditches of up to 12 feet deep and 20 feet wide suggest tens of thousands of cubic yards of earth moved during their construction. During the 2008 season, Dr. Erickson and his collaborators hiked into the forest and were able to get usable GPS signals in order to find and study ring ditches previously identified from the air. The group found ditches that would have been up to five meters deep, now eroded. The ditches were probed, but not excavated; often surface pottery was found near the mounds.
Various hypotheses were presented for the functions of earthworks based on forms and associations. Many of the earthworks show a preponderance of ceremonial ware, as opposed to domestic pottery, and the scale and number of man-hours needed to construct such earthworks points to a greater degree of social organization than previously accepted. The existence of monumental works of such magnitude and density throughout Western Amazonia requires demands a reassessment of the prehistory of the region and the ability of native peoples to transform their landscapes at a massive scal
Following his studies at Washington University, St. Louis, Missouri, Dr. Erickson received his M.A. and Ph.D. in Anthropology from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. He is currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Anthropology, at the University of Pennsylvania, and an Associate Curator in the American Section of the University Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology. He is currently directing a multi-year, multidisciplinary investigation of traditional agricultural systems of agricultural production, precolumbian land use, anthropogenic landscapes, human environmental impact, and the technological and engineering knowledge of prehispanic farmers in the Amazonian region of Bolivia, at Llanos de Moxos, Department of the Beni, Bolivia. The fieldwork involves archaeological survey, mapping, and excavation of agricultural earthworks, digital analysis of remote sensing, and establishment of a Geographic Information System. The research also includes agricultural experimentation based on the now-abandoned technology defined from archaeological research. During the 1980s, Clark first investigated prehispanic raised field agriculture in the Lake Titicaca Basin of Peru. Between 1990 and 1994, his group developed an applied archaeology program whereby indigenous communities participated in the raised field experiments. After 1995, they focused their investigations on a vast complex of precolumbian earthworks in the Baures, the region along the border between Bolivia and Brazil. Their research is funded by the National Science Foundation, H. John Heinz Charitable Trust, the Research Foundation, American Philosophical Society, and the InterAmerican Foundation.

On February 1, 2003, the Space Shuttle Columbia disintegrated upon reentering Earth's atmosphere, killing all seven crew members. The disaster was the second fatal accident in the Space Shuttle program after Space Shuttle Challenger, which broke apart and killed the seven-member crew 73 seconds after liftoff in 1986.

The Prime Minister has said that mental health is one of the "greatest social challenges of our time". The recent Green Paper on measures to improve mental health support for children and young people outlined the government's proposed strategy, with schools set to play a central role.
A landmark report by NatCen, published last year, documented for the first time how schools and colleges are supporting mental wellbeing, and identifying and supporting pupils with mental health needs. The Department for Education commissioned this research to provide a basis for future policy and research, with many of the report's findings providing evidence for proposals within the Green Paper.
At this lunchtime event you will hear from the Rt Hon Robert Halfon MP (Chair of the Education Select Committee) and report author Neil Smith (NatCen) before we finish with a panel discussion by sector experts, chaired by Natalie Perera (EPI).

When in Costa Rica, I decided to give the "Leaders Daily Wonders Too Much Fun In The Sun" sheet masks a try and I am so thankful that I did. These sheet masks were super refreshing after spending my time outside in the dry sun of Costa Rica and kept my face feeling moisturized.
What really made me love these masks, was after leaving Costa Rica, I discovered I had received a sunburn on my shoulders still. Also, during the summer my skin has become more sensitive to heat and I can get heat rashes, which is why I upped my SPF usage consistently. I applied the mask on my shoulders and it helped soothe the irritation from the sunburn and keep my skin from drying out. I was really amazed at how good they worked. The ingredients such as olive leaf and aloe protect and heal your skin from sun damage.
Water, Butylene Glycol, Glycerin, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract, Olea Europaea (Olive) Leaf Extract, Hydroxyethyl Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Portulaca Oleracea Extract, Acer Saccharum (Sugar Maple) Extract, Betaine, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Ethylhexylglycerin, Caprylyl Glycol, Xanthan Gum, Arnica Montana Flower Extract, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Water, Houttuynia Cordata Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Fragrance, Ledum Palustre Extract, Saururus Chinensis Extract, Artemisia Absinthium Extract, Artemisia Capillaris Flower Extract, Ecklonia Cava Extract, Achillea Millefolium Extract, Gentiana Lutea Root Extract, Acetyl Tetrapeptide-40.
Honestly, I would definitely say these are a great summertime essential especially if you're like me and spend lots of time outside by the pool and beach!! I picked these up from Ulta Beauty, but you can also purchase the entire box set from Amazon, and of course Leaders Cosmetics directly here.

Story Eleven – Monsters
For those of you acquainted with Mommy's work, you'll be right at home. For those of you who aren't, don't worry… You don't absolutely need to be. And yes, I am still on this Mommy thing.
The pain spreads from his ear to his jaw and further down the nerves of his neck and shoulders. His fingers twitch. The small arms, covered in old dark scars, tug against the impossibly heavy restraints. He refuses to scream, forcing his mouth closed against reflex. His sharp canine teeth pierce his own tongue. The sensation is nothing to what they're doing but it gives him some control. It lets him accept the degradation. It distracts his mind.
Jagged metal stops halfway through the cartilage. The boy tries to move his head but a solid vice restricts him. He presses against the barrier, straining the connections. It's not enough. He's weak. They haven't allowed him food. Muscles in his neck grow to definition. He can hear the metal groaning. The massive forces put against it might have freed him had a jolt of new sensation not been sent through his bare chest. Two needles pierce him, jolts of radiated energy communicate with his cells. They are told they are dying. In unison, the tiny organisms release a burst of chemicals and electrical signals. The boy's brain interprets them and he is finally forced to make a sound. A low roar speaks of the agony. The loose parts of his body, the right arm and leg that aren't losing circulation from the restraints, seize
The guard smirks. He drops the reordiner, it's job done. He's standing in just a way as to show himself to the prisoner. He wants the boy to see as much of the act as possible. Of course, he can't expect the small, young man to see the parts of his ear being shaved off. That's for the feeling of it. The special blade is covered in minuscule jagged spikes, ensuring the most horrible sensations are present.
He wasn't told to use this tool. They did say to cause pain. They said to hurt the boy. He took it as an implication. Before he was placed in this position, the man had heard tales of these creatures. So like us, they said. From a distance, ignoring hair color, this thing looks to be a normal boy. It took a while for him to overlook the similarities. He's able now to see the creature for what it really is.
The guard grins wider, not from mirth but exertion. The child's people are resilient. Their skin is dense. Their bodies are more compact and heavily constructed. The blade won't budge in a straight slice. His thick, armored forearm slowly extends, then retracts. The slow sawing motion drags through, making way.
Words are spoken. The guard speaks of the orders he was given, directly from the lord himself. As if that should make the boy respect him, he expects some kind of response. He never stops. Those were his orders. Keep cutting until the monster boy's long ears are shorter than those of his captors and do it slow.
It had taken hours. The boy could feel the blade. It's only halfway through. He sends thunderous quakes through the wall, slamming his bare foot to the ground, throwing his shoulders against the vice. Dust erupts from the brace. The giant chains attached to his wrists and ankles, each link larger than the entirety of the young body, chatters.
The guard steps back, joined by others.
The boy feels the needles. He feels the jolts and shots of electricity from the other subordinating weapons. He knows they're trying to drain him. Biological releases from his muscles brought fatigue. His own physiology was bucking against his effort.
His jet black eyes opened for the first time since being roused from a shallow sleep hours before. They train on the closest guard. From behind his long, sweat drenched, unkempt black hair, he sees his goal. He sees what he needs to push harder. He sees fear.
They call him the monster boy, the demon child and anything else they can think of to replace his real name. He is the creature in their nightmares. There are few on this vessel that could face him free and unbound. Not from lack of strength, their weapons more than made up for that difference. Their terror grows from the rage. They can see it, not just in his eyes, in every move he makes. They can hear it in the silence of his refusal to speak. They dread the hate he emanates.
He pulls enough slack on his right hand and lashes out. Had his target been any closer, it would have been a victim. The blood from the guard's shallow wound stains the boy's long nails. They raise the level switches on their weapons, avoiding his limited attacks. Coordinating themselves, they lay into him all at once. He belts out a sound too low for them to hear. It shakes their bones and rattles their brains. They fall back, clutching their chests where internal organs are agitating against bone.
Stones in the wall break free. It's a small difference but it's enough. The boy straightens one more time, pushing everything he has into the restraint. The blocks that make up the walls shift. The room warps. He stands straight for the first time in years. The weight of the chains lessens, kept at bay by the immense confidence of achieving his full height.
He rushes his arms into the air, breaking through the weak points in the wrist restraints connected to the heavier chains. Shrapnel shoots into the walls and damages one of his attackers.
The guard with the blade throws the resourced weapon at the boy. It sticks but the damage is minimal. The child grabs the mass of metal that had been holding his neck, shoulders, and torso still. He breaks the bulk in half and brings it down on the guard's head. Blood cascades in all directions. It coats the guards nearest to the newly dead.
Their glances ricochet from their lost coworker to the creature slowly stepping through the room. Real weapons are drawn but most barely see the world outside their holsters.
The boy lunges and moves in an arc, slicing his flat palm trough the air. The claws on his fingers catch flesh, metal, stone and fabric. They do not discriminate.
Two guards stand watch in the hallway. They've heard noises like these coming from the room before. Within is a monster, being held by more than a hundred tons of force.
There were daily interrogations. That was the word used, but to them it seems more as torture. They don't argue against it, either way. The beast is dangerous. Image transmitters were stationed around the room to ensure their lord could see every action taken. They assumed it was to solidify the lawfulness of the tactics being used.
This creature, destructive enough to house on the prison ship, orbiting the city vessel, is their's to watch over. They decide who entered. They decide who leaves.
By a flash of light generated in sparks by two great forces colliding, that responsibility is ripped from them. The heavy, five layered chamber door bursts from it's place in the wall. It carries the guards with it and all three crash through the other side of the hall.
The boy stands. Thick metal sheets from the portal covering had reformed from the heat of his actions. He pulls his body from the near form-fitting structure and lets it fall.
He walks through the smoke, barely tall enough to hold his stolen guard staff comfortably. Black blood, from his pierced tongue, drips from his lips and the wound still held open by the forgotten knife. The liquid singes the dull, muted prisoner's clothes he's wearing. He keeps his mouth open, the shining fangs bare. He breathes deeply, still recovering from the effort of escaping the room. He is now facing a greater challenge.
He knows this ship. He knows that while the guards were not fighters, there was a post of more than five hundred soldiers deep in the center of the giant, globed vehicle. Early in his incarceration, when they didn't view him as such a great threat, he was kept with the general population. He took part in a disastrous escape attempt. He was forced to hold the army back as the others took the docking bay and went free. They didn't know the ships they had stolen were outfitted with trackers.
Some time later their bodies were paraded through his tiny room. He was given their flesh as food. Hunger overcame the sadness of their death. Though it took absolute starvation, he reviled the act in his mind. It was as if he had killed them himself.
Marching brings his attention to the forefront of reality. The warriors arrive. The boy cranes his neck, feeling and hearing cartilage pop. Their leader, a large Yuloi, a beast of a man three times the height of the guards and five the width, crushes the floor with each step. He bears a crystal-implanted club, dragging it on the ground. He smiles. Rock-like teeth gnash in his mouth in a flurry.
His words mean nothing. The young man responds with action.
The child makes no pause. He jumps, nearly touching the high ceiling. He throws the spear into the general's swinging club. Both weapons bounce back against the velocity of the other.
The boy spins his body, pushing off of the ceiling. He twists again, smashing into the ground in a full run. He rips the knife from his side.
The lower floors, full of evacuating guards, shakes more than before. Something large has just fallen, something impossibly heavy.

Who are we and what are we all about. Let us tell you more
About Us
Who are we and what are we all about.
Welcome to or page. I purchased Tan Lines in February 2015. I had dreamed of owing my own business for as long as I can remember. I did tons of research before starting the venture. I knew right away that I wanted to set myself apart from the competition. I believe in pure honesty. And educating the customer. As a 4 time cancer survivor, I knew I would get tons of slack for owning a salon. For that reason. I have chosen the best products in the industry. As natural and pure as possible. Specializing in the Infrared technology. Customizing each product for my customers. Making sure that I am currant with the latest technology that is proven to work. I try very hard to make your experience one that will make you want to come back for. I have huge plans for Tan Lines Optional . Expanding to a self spa in 2016. I will be adding new self spa equipment. Hydro-massage table. Fit-wrap. And the areas only Oxygen bar.

Your feet – Morton's neuroma
A neuroma is a noncancerous (benign) growth of nerve tissue that can develop in various parts of your body. Morton's neuroma occurs in a nerve in your foot, often between your third and fourth toes. The condition isn't a true tumor, but instead involves a thickening of the tissue around one of the digital nerves leading to your toes. Morton's neuroma causes a sharp, burning pain in the ball of your foot. Your toes also may sting, burn or feel numb if you have Morton's neuroma.
Also called plantar neuroma or intermetatarsal neuroma, Morton's neuroma may occur in response to irritation, injury or pressure — such as from wearing tightfitting shoes. But Morton's neuroma may also occur for unknown reasons.
Treatments for Morton's neuroma commonly involve changing footwear, resting your foot, and using arch supports or pads to help take pressure off the area. In some cases, your doctor may recommend anti-inflammatory drugs, a cortisone injection or even surgery if you have Morton's neuroma

Knowing what to look for when picking your bonsai starter trees is important to your success.
First you need to consider specimen trees that will flourish in your environment and one that will cope with your personality.
Here are a few questions you should ask yourself when you go shopping for your bonsai.
Do I have Care Instructions or do I know where to get them? If your answer is No, do not make a purchase until you can answer this question with a Yes. Different types of bonsai trees will require very different care instructions.
Know what the watering requirements are. This is probably the most important thing to know.
If you are the type of person that will forget to water your bonsai occasionally, pick a type of tree that does not require as much water as some of the others. If you know you tend to over water your plants, pick a bonsai that can tolerate more water.
The next part of the care instructions for bonsai plants is sunlight.
Most bonsai plants require a decent amount of sunlight, so make sure you have a sunny place in mind before you make your purchase. Bonsai may be grown indoors or out, but must get a good dose of sunlight each day.
The height of your bonsai plants is another important aspect to look out for. Depending on where you plan to put it, you will need plenty of head room to let it grow out properly.
If you plan to purchase a outdoor type bonsai, height will probably not be as important when choosing your tree. The same consideration applies to the width of the plant.
Many people love the aesthetic aspect of growing bonsai, so to be true to the art, you will need to take the time and effort to shape your tree and keep it groomed. If you have a personality that would rather not pay much attention to your bonsai then make sure you purchase one that is known for it's slow growth.
There are many different styles you can use, or you can come up with your own. Whatever you decide to do, make sure that you have the proper tools to do it.
Bonsai suppliers, either local or online, will have the tools you need to order to properly trim and shape your bonsai.

PPI is old news. Welcome CPP!
The whole PPI misspelling saga has been dragging on for years. Most commonly attached to loans or mortgages from banks, the cash windfalls received in compensation payouts to the mis-sellees is enough to make you wish you had been
gullible fore-sighted enough to take a policy out in the first place. But if you were unlucky enough to have missed that boat, never fear, a new compensatory ship is rolling in. Card Protection Plan compensation.
The Financial Conduct Authority announced yesterday that they are instigating a new tranche of compensation claims for policies sold by Card Protection Plan Limited (CPP), who, unsurprisingly, sold card protection plans as well as identity protection policies, whatever they are.
An estimated seven million policyholders will receive a letter from CPP during February 2014 enclosing a compensation claim form, or two forms for those who purchased both the card and identity protection policies. The policies were often sold when customers called to register or activate a debit or credit card.
The letter will detail how to make a claim IF you feel your policy was mis-sold. Examples of how products may have been mis-sold include being given misleading or unclear information when the policy was sold, on the basis of which, the policy was purchased. Note that the FCA has already found buckets of evidence of widespread mis-selling by the company, resulting in a £10.5million fine in 2012.
Claim makers will not need to provide documentary evidence, but will need to write a short statement saying why the policy was mis-sold. No charge will be made for making a claim (other than by pop-up claims handlers who are probably worming their way up right now), and all claims must be received by 30 August 2014. Note that making a claim will cancel any policies still in existence, so those receiving benefits might want to think carefully before jumping on the bandwagon. Anyone who thinks they should be entitled to claim, but who does not receve a claim form by the end of February should should contact CPP on 0800 083 4393.
Anyone entitled to compensation will have the premiums paid since 14 January 2005 returned, less any sums paid out under the policy, but plus interest. Any premiums paid before that date are lost because such policies were unregulated before then (so providers could essentially do what they liked.)
The banks and card providers who have agreed to provide compensation under the scheme are as follows:
Bank of Scotland Plc (part of Lloyds Banking Group)
Barclays Bank Plc
Canada Square Operations Limited (formerly Egg Banking Plc)
Capital One (Europe) Plc
Clydesdale Bank Plc (part of National Australia Group Europe)
Home Retail Group Insurance Services Limited
HSBC Bank Plc
MBNA Limited
Morgan Stanley Bank International Limited
Nationwide Building Society
Santander UK Plc
The Royal Bank of Scotland Plc
Further information about the scheme is available by calling the dedicated helpline on 0800 083 4393 or on www.cppredressscheme.co.uk

- jtSo they've found a way to keep the economy going for a while longer after all the PPI claims are done.
- edEndowment mortgages, PPI and now another mis-selling scandal I'll be missing out on because I had the common sense to see they were all a scam in the first place. With my ability to understand airline luggage and parking rules, speed limits and mobile phone contracts I seem to miss out on lots of opportunities to feel cheated, aggrieved or persecuted. It's not fair.
- shiftyniftyYep....that will keep the economy going a bit longer, allowing cheap financial deals to buy cars, furniture , other shit that may or may not be wanted until kaboom we are blown away again by another recession
- Mark F.My trolley rules!
- Alexis V.You should have got an initial letter in October, a voting form in November (only 18% actually voted) and will receive a claim form soon. If you haven't had a letter or voting form, chances are you aren't on the list. Fingers crossed for a big cheque for the gfriend. She was one of the gullible ones - we've already got 2.4k back from Egg. On the other hand, it turned out to be a good investment with the interest paid.
- jiggle@Mark Colliton on Flickr You got any fresher trolleys?
- Mark F.Have you been mis-sold Feral Trolley images? You may be entitled to claim up to £4.23 worth of compensation.

Over the course of 193 pitches Friday night, the Giants and Cubs remained locked in a scoreless tie. Then, one swing sent a ball flying through the chilly Chicago night, a tremor through Wrigley Field and the Giants to an early deficit in their National League Division Series.
Javier Baez homered off Johnny Cueto with one out in the eighth inning, a towering fly ball that cleared the left-field wall by inches, snapping a scoreless duel between Cueto and Cubs left-hander Jon Lester. Flame-throwing Cubs closer Aroldis Chapman stranded the tying run on second base in the ninth, and the Giants fell 1-0 in Game 1 of the NLDS.
Despite a reputation for playing with their backs against the wall in the postseason, the Giants had lost only two openers in nine previous playoff series under manager Bruce Bochy. They will send Jeff Samardzija to the mound hoping to even the series in Game 2 on Saturday against Kyle Hendricks, owner of the majors' lowest ERA this season.
"It was a great ballgame, it was," Bochy said. "We played well, made some good defensive plays. We had some guys out there early in the game, just couldn't get a hit to finish them off."

Cueto struck out nine batters over his first seven scoreless innings and retired Jason Heyward on a popup to start the eighth when Baez stepped up and hit a full-count fastball, Cueto's 108th pitch, high into the Chicago night. Left fielder Angel Pagan retreated slowly toward the wall, eying it as though he might have a play, before watching it carry over his head and fall into the grating at the top of the brick wall.
Pagan said he thought Baez's ball might stay in the park.
"It was so close," Pagan said. "But the reality is that basket's been there for so many years. Nothing we can do about it."
An announced crowd of 42,148, tensely quiet most of the night as Cueto and Lester dueled, exploded with a roar. Cueto finished the inning, but with a newfound advantage, the Cubs turned to Chapman, who came out of the bullpen firing 103-mph fastballs. He struck out Gorkys Hernandez on a check swing and retired a hobbled Eduardo Nunez on a groundout before Buster Posey lined a double off the wall in left-center field.
The ensuing hush was momentary, as Baez fielded Hunter Pence's chopper to the right side and fired a throw to first base, ending the game.
Giants first baseman Brandon Belt said he thought Posey's double "had a shot" at being a home run, "but it just had a little too much topspin. You hope it'll make it over to that basket, but it didn't quite get there."
Lester threw just 86 pitches through eight scoreless innings, though the Giants had their chances early. Hernandez led off the game by pushing a bunt to the left of Lester for a single. Then Hernandez tried stealing second but was thrown out easily by David Ross.
It was the first of three leadoff singles by the Giants in the first three innings. Pence was stranded in the second and Conor Gillaspie was picked off first base in the third inning by Ross, who snapped a throw behind him at first.
The Giants' best chance came in the fourth, when Posey singled and Pagan hit a two-out blooper that bounced under the glove of Ben Zobrist in left field. Posey, though, appeared to slow at second base and had to stop at third as Zobrist retrieved the ball, and Brandon Crawford grounded out to end the inning.
Posey said he hesitated at second because if Zobrist had stopped the ball, he would not have tried for third.
Against Lester, Bochy deployed platoon matchups, starting Hernandez over Denard Span in center field and Kelby Tomlinson over Joe Panik at second base. Both replacements made an impact defensively, with Hernandez robbing Ross of extra bases with a sliding basket catch on the warning track in the third inning.
Cueto retired his first 10 batters before Kris Bryant laced a double to left in the fourth. After Anthony Rizzo grounded out, Zobrist hit a shot to the left of Tomlinson, who made a diving stab of it and threw Zobrist out, pumping his fist as he ran back to the dugout. Tomlinson also robbed Rizzo in the seventh inning with another diving play in shallow right field, where he was playing in a shift.
After Bryant's double, chants of "Cue-to" began to sound briefly around Wrigley Field – a gambit that Pirates fans used effectively against the right-hander during the 2013 wild-card game when Cueto was pitching for the Reds. It was less successful on this night, as Cueto matched zeroes with Lester through seven innings.
As was often the case this season, Cueto appeared to get stronger as the game went on. He struck out two batters in the fifth, pitching around a two-out single from Baez, and struck out the side in the sixth, all swinging, finishing that inning at 89 pitches.
Their duel would end in the eighth, though, and the Giants will now have to do what they could not in the ninth inning Friday night: Mount a comeback.
"I don't think anybody's getting too discouraged about losing the first game," said Belt. "There's still a long ways to go."

Archaeologists working in the Atacama Desert came across an unlikely yet brilliant discovery – 150 mummies belonging to a previously unknown culture in the Tambo Delta of northern Peru.
Research has been conducted in the area since 2008 as part of the Tambo Project. Archaeologists found a grave dating back between the 4th and 7th century AD, making it a mysterious culture not yet analysed. The culture predates the expansion of the Tiwanaku civilisation into the area.
Due to the heat of the desert, the graves and artefacts have been well-preserved, and the sandy surface made it invisible to those greedy grave robbers. Inside the tombs, archaeologists found bodies wrapped in mats, some in cotton shrouds and others in nets. Another find included headgear made from lama wool.
A rare discovery were the bows and arrows with obsidian tips as bows are not often found in Peru. The skeleton of a young lama was also found, which proves that these animals were brought to the Tambo Delta much earlier than previously thought.
Other artefacts include jewellery, decorated weaving tools, and reed withes attached to the deceased ears which is believed to have been a way for the dead to communicate with the living.
Leader of the research project, Prof Józef Szykulski, says:
"These burials are of a virtually unknown people, who inhabited the area before the expansion of the Tiwanaku civilisation. Items found in individual graves indicate that the people already had a clear social division"

Worcester Chamber Music Society to Celebrate 10th Anniversary
Wednesday, August 26, 2015
The pair of concerts will run on two nights in September and will feature acclaimed Russian pianist, Sonya Ovrutsky Fensome (pictured below) and clarinetist, Julian Milkis along with nine music society members: Tracy Kraus, flute; Krista Buckland Reisner and Rohan Gregory, violins; Peter Sulski and Mark Berger, violas; David Russell, Joshua Gordon and Ariana Falk, celli; and William Ness, piano.
SEE BELOW: WCMS Kick-off Concert Weekend Information
"Ten years is an amazing milestone for a small non-profit organization," said Kraus. "Music is a powerful connector to the community. We have cultivated a bond with our audiences and our students which gives us a sense of satisfaction in the work that we do."
WCMS began with four concerts and now run 15 concerts between July and September. The society has also created two education programs: Summer Music Camp, a tuition based chamber music camp for youth and adults, and Neighborhood Strings, a free inner-city strings program.
For the members of the society, there's plenty to look forward to next month. "We have not seen each other since July. Coming together again in September for our 10th Anniversary is exciting beyond words," said Kraus.
The first show will be held on Thursday, September 17 at 7:30 PM at the Unitarian Universalist Church in Harvard. The second show will feature a pre-concert 10th Anniversary celebration and will take place on Saturday, September 19 at Tuckerman Hall in Worcester.
The evening on September 19 begins with an opening reception offering desserts and a cash bar for a special toast to Season 10. The reception is followed by a pre-concert talk with musicians on stage.

School of Roars … Where monsters go to growl and grow!
Going to school for the first time is one of the biggest things you'll do in your life. You're away from home, fitting in with routines and learning so many new things … whilst also getting along with a class full of new friends. It's exciting, but a massive change! School of Roars helps children prepare for school life by exploring a child's first year through the relationships and experiences of our mini monsters. Because they're monsters, our little heroes go to school at night, led by teacher Miss Grizzlesniff. The class learns lessons on how to be monsters, like counting the legs on spiders in math, how to howl at the moon in music, or making delicious Blushberry Blob Cakes in cookery. Our monsters experience life-lessons through their adventures such as caring, sharing, friendship and fun, mirroring the social and emotional behaviour and group dynamics of our audience who is just starting school.
