Happy Chinese New Year, folks! It is the "Year of the Rat" according to the Chinese zodiac/lunar calendar. Because I am fervently anti-superstitious, I won't be wishing you good fortune or great wealth, nor great health, in this new year. Instead, I hope you will be rewarded by the following:
- Good Health by utilizing a good workout regiment, eating healthy (a good, juicy steak in moderation), and mentally optimistic by befriending physically stimulating people.
- Great Wealth by being financially responsible and investing smartly.
- Enduring Fortune by not expecting a miracle, but pursuing your dreams.

Sally Hershberger Professional Hair Care expands lineup
NEW YORK — Sally Hershberger Professional Hair Care has announced the launch of two new products: Plump Up and Major Body.
Plump Up is a heat-activated thickening mist for fuller style. The daily restorative thickening mist promises to provide hair with fullness and nourishment. According to the company, the formula improves the texture and condition of the hair the more you use it and is light enough to be layered with other products without leaving a heavy residue. The suggested retail price for Plump Up is $12.50, and it is available at Ulta locations nationwide, as well as Duane Reade and Ricky's NYC locations.
Major Body is a dry volumizing hairspray with patented touch-activated technology that allows you to control, build and shape full-bodied style with your fingertips, the manufacturer stated. The water-free, quick-dry formula leaves hair flexible, without the crunchy texture, added weight or residue. The SRP is $12.50, and the product is available at Ulta locations nationwide and at Duane Reade.

"This expansion with Walmart allows us to provide our customers with our easy-to-find natural deodorant without the sticker shock," stated Ted Alflen, CEO and founder of Naturally Fresh Deodorant Crystal. "Our goal has always been to provide effective products without harmful chemicals at consumer-conscious prices."
A percentage of Naturally Fresh Deodorant's proceeds go to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation for the Cure, and all products are cruelty-free, the company said.

Hi I'm Eric Gaddy (AKA Beard the Beer Bard) and I want to help you take better beer pictures. This blog will contain lots of behind the scenes shots of the beer (and other) images I take and a description on what I'm doing to the image and the thought process behind it.
When I first read about the Sierra Nevada Beer Camp collaborations I was mildly interested. It was a great concept that promotes more than just craft beer; it promotes out craft community. Once I started reading about the collaborations I was more than mildly interested, I was hooked. With names like Maillard's Odyssey and Myron's Walk I starting having ideas about images of beers in these epic scenes. Most of these never came to fruition but I attempted to get a few.
The collaboration that caught my eye the most was with New Glarus called There and Back. I am a Tolkien fan through and through so the idea of a beer having a Tolkien-esque theme (There and Back Again) meant I had to try it and attempt some neat #beertography while I was at it.
There and Back - New Glarus & Sierra Nevada I tried to come up with a hobbit scene that didn't distract from the beer but also gave the idea that it was time for an adventure. I had a few props that I wanted to use such as Bilbo's sword, Sting. I also wanted a traveling cloak so I settled with a wool throw that you see the sword rested on. The thing I'm currently realizing I should have included was a tobacco pipe.
Ambient light was getting low but that worked in my favor. I used two strip lights with grids to focus light only on the sword/cloak and then the bottle/beer.
I used a large white fill card to the right to give detail on the label and help the beer show its color. I used 1/125th shutter @ f8.0 w/ ISO 1250.
The humidity was horrid so there was no chance of getting condensation off of the bottle which bugs me in this picture. There & Beck Set Up Shot
I picked up a 12 pack of the Sierra Nevada Beer Camp beers and held on to it for a while because I had an idea to photograph each beer from the pack. I finally started drinking and photographing them last weekend.
Sierra Nevada's #beercamp - Yonder BockCollab with Cigar City I was looking around for props to use for this shot. I found an old crate that I held a bunch of ears of corn I purchased from a farmer. I didn't really find a decent way to show off the crate but it worked.
Nothing special about this set up. I used two strip lights with baffles on the left and right. The ambient light was bright enough to take on it's own but I wanted to have the can stand out as the dominant focus.
I purchased a bottle of Highland Brewing's 20th Anniversary Scotch Ale after trying it at Blue Mountain Pizza and Brew Pub. It's extremely smooth for the style and I can't wait to get another one. For this photo I went out to our wood shed and used some old tin roof as a backdrop. I needed a little extra fill light so I broke out my handy iPhone flash light.
Highland Brewing Co. Scotch AleiPhone 5 flash used as rim light. I grabbed a tulip glass from the cabinet and headed to the wood shed to get a rustic picture. It was extremely muggy and getting late in the evening so there was a lot of condensation on the bottle and glass. I was using my 135mm lens at 2.8 and had bumped the ISO up to 1600 and I still couldn't get a decent shot because I didn't have my tripod.
I needed more light but I hadn't brought and flashes with me. I did have my iPhone with me however. Improvising is a big part of my workflow in photography. You can see the difference in the photo on the left vs the photo on the right. No fill light or rim light.
The image to the left has better definition and the beer bottle stands out more because the background is brighter as well as the bottle having a rim light to outline the shape of the bottle.
In hind sight I should have gone out to take the photo earlier than dusk but thanks to my dslr I was able to achieve a decent image. At this light level it would have been too dark for a cell phone.
You can achieve great images by using a cell phone flash as fill light. If you have a couple friends who are willing to let you borrow their phones at the bar you can take your #beertography to the next level even using your cell phone.
iPhone5 as a fill light for #beertography
One of my favorite North Carolina breweries is Green Man Brewery in Asheville. I grew up among the trees and images of the deity the Green Man always make me feel at home. The Forester is brewed with roasted and chocolate malts and is perfect for the cold weather. Earlier this year we had one of those rare North Carolina snow storms that shut everything down. I was prepared with plenty of beer. I decided to take advantage of the snow and snow day to get in some #beertography.
Green Man Brewery's Forester Winter Stout Even though it was 32 degrees and snow was falling I decided to take some equipment out into the woods where a massive oak tree fell a few years ago. This made for the perfect flat surface (though not completely level) to use for my photo. I took this photo about 5 or 6pm which is why the background is so dark. I had to drag the shutter 13 seconds just for that much light.
For my setup I used a single flash gelled with a CTO into a 60" white shoot through umbrella.
For this image I held the light stand so that the umbrella was positioned right over the top of the beer and bottle. I did my best to get the umbrella as close as possible to the beer to avoid terrible hot spots. I was able to get away with a single light due to the snow acting as a natural light reflector as you can see reflected on the glass. I can't remember exactly what my strobe was set on but I'm sure it was low.
I didn't really do anything in the way of post processing. The background was blue because my flash was covered in the CTO gel and that's what I white balanced for. I may have brushed the label and foam to make them brighter and added a small amount of vignette.
I tried to get a setup shot with my iPhone but it was so dark already that it looks horrible. Here it is anyways.

Rock and Roll is a genre of music that is known for its earsplitting music and people of the partying atmosphere. During the 1950's and 1960's these partying people were better known as "hippies," easy going, laid back, just here to have a good time. Thinking back to 1951, Alan Freed discovered Rock and Roll; Freed was a disc jockey that obviously loved music.
Nowadays we look at rock and roll as a past era that dominated the musical world at one time. Families were at home tuning into the American Bandstand to see which artist was going to be the next big thing. Artists were arriving to the states from other countries such as the Beatles. So where did the saying "Sex, Drugs, and Rock and Roll" derive from? Various rock and roll artists have been associated with legal and illegal drugs, from alcohol to the hard substances as heroin. We look at rock and roll artists as "sex symbols or better known as sex icons."
What do Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, and Jim Morrison have in common? Besides the fact, that they are rock and roll artists. In reality they have all passed away because of a drug related incident. Interesting fact is that they were twenty seven years old at the time of each of their deaths.
We know "her incendiary stage performances, her masochistic tango with the bottle, her tumultuous love life, and her fatal dalliance with drugs," (Margaret Moser) none other than her self; Janis Joplin. Four years and four months after leaving Austin, Texas to make it big in the music industry on October 4, 1970 Joplin only twenty seven years old was found dead in a hotel in Los Angeles. Joplin had just over dosed on a pure batch of heroin. Today we remember her as an all time great artist that was an extremely great musician.
Born November 22, 1942 Jimi Hendrix is a legend when it comes to playing the electric guitar. Other artists and fans were caught in awe and saying "there was this black guy on the scene doing...

For all of you Hellfish that aren't from the Michigan area we have posted Matt Ziegler's Photos from the Hellfish Toga Party @ Skydive Tecumseh on August 16th, 2014 (go to Hellfish Photos page). My thanks to Matt for allowing me to post his photos. And thanks to Aaron Burwell, Midwest Regional Director of Team Flying Hellfish, and the other Hellfish who helped to make this party possible. I may be prejudiced but I think Skydive Tecumseh has the mostest, bestest, hottest female skydivers of any DZ in the country. Go to the Hellfish Photos page to check out 100+ photos from the party and see if I'm exaggerating. ( all Photos are G or PG rated so don't get too worked up)
Thanks to Zac Sutherland, Cat Isgrigg and Ben Crance for sending in the following photos.
In this photo Zac Sutherlad gets his 1st "E". Zac is from North Dandalup, Australia and he is the absolute most recent Hellfish with # 949. I asked Zac to comment on this spectacular photo and this is what he had to say:
" This photo.. was taken in Montana at a location that I have been asked to keep hidden. I made a solo jump with just my friend, Jon Eppard, an amateur photographer and Graphic Designer accompanying me. The hike to the exit point took 30 minutes. It was late in the day so the lighting was perfect. Jon found a rock that stuck out like a diving board and carefully climbed out on it to capture this photo. I had done my safety checks and there were good vibes at the exit point, I felt calm and peaceful. Jon gave the signal that he was ready and the picture captures the rest"
Zac only has 150 skydives. He says he is perfecting his canopy skills through BASE jumping (Hmmmm....??)

Product Review: Belvita Cranberry Breakfast Biscuits
I am pretty sure that BelVita came out a little while ago (I am vaguely aware of seeing ads for them), but because they are found in the biscuit aisle, I never came across them. The cranberry version I was sent is a new variant and it is delicious! And really, is there anything more delightful than starting your day with a biscuit? Filled with 5 wholegrains (nearly half of your daily recommendation), fibre and with a low GI, these biscuits, together with a homemade latte in my reusable takeaway cup and a piece of fruit, add up to a balanced breakfast that I can eat and drink on the go, and that keeps me going until lunchtime.
Since trying the cranberry variety, which was delicious and fruity, I went out and purchased the other flavours as well. Fruit and Fibre was my next favourite and hubby's first choice, with the fruit adding a hint of chewiness, while the Honey Nut Choc Chip was the kids' choice (no surprise there!). While I still insist on my kids having a sit-down breakfast, these BelVita breakfast biscuits offer me a convenient breakfast without compromising on taste or nutrition.

Justin Bieber's girlfriend Sofia Richie is battling illness as she celebrates her 18th birthday.
The youngest daughter of soul singer Lionel Richie marked the age milestone on Wednesday (24Aug16), but on the eve of her big day, she revealed she wasn't feeling her best.
"Of course I'm sick (the) day before my birthday," she wrote alongside a Snapchat picture taken inside a doctor's office in Los Angeles. "Anything else want to go wrong?"
The birthday girl appeared to be well enough earlier in the day as she enjoyed an outing with Justin, reuniting with the pop superstar after he returned home following weekend (20-21Aug16) performances at Britain's V Festival.
The young couple was spotted hanging out together in North Hollywood after spending the past week apart.
Justin and Sofia went public with their budding romance earlier this month (Aug16), and the old friends promptly took their relationship overseas by jetting to Japan, where the Baby singer was booked for a pair of performances.
However, Bieber's fans haven't been the most receptive to his new girlfriend, and he lashed out at online trolls for attacking Sofia on social media, even threatening to make his Instagram page private if the nasty comments didn't stop.
The backlash even sparked an online dispute between Justin and his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez, after she criticised the 22-year-old for taking aim at his own followers. The pair dated on and off from 2012 to 2014.
Justin followed through with his Instagram boycott threat just two days later, after the hateful messages continued to roll in.

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) — The 27th Annual Susan G. Komen Philadelphia Race for the Cure is this Sunday on Mother's Day.
Tens of thousands of people will gather at Eakins Oval and the Art Museum to help fight breast cancer.
Kathy Trow is no ordinary nurse working alongside Dr. Ari Brooks.
The two have been colleagues and friends and then one day Kathy became his patient.
"It was a very emotional interaction," says Dr. Brooks of Penn Medicine.
Two and a half years ago Kathy was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer.
"The news kept getting worse and worse," she said of the diagnosis. "I thought I was strong before I had cancer, I was a tough person but that like brought me to my knees."
There was surgery, radiation and chemotherapy but she says the hardest part was telling her three children.
"Probably the worst day of my life having to tell my kids that and see their reaction," she said.
Her family became her rock.
A family photo that was taken when she wasn't looking so sick was especially important to her.
"The thoughts are I want to get a family picture in case I'm not here," Kathy said. "I want the kids to remember me."
"She's just a really, really strong individual," said Dr. Brooks. "And as you can see she turned what was adversity in her life into just an amazing empowering thing."
It was Dr. Brooks who did Kathy's surgery and guided the treatments while also being the friend he'd been for years.
"I always say I'm the best person to provide that care in my family and I feel that strong about my friends as well," he said.
Now Kathy and Dr. Brooks have another connection.
It's Komen Philadelphia.
Dr. Brooks was among the first to receive Komen grants that help take care of underserved women.
"I love Komen I've been working with them for years," he says. "They serve a vital role here in the Delaware Valley."
"We've taken care of about 7,000 to 8,000 women providing the uninsured women access to screening mammograms, ultrasounds, biopsies and then surgery if we diagnose a cancer," said Dr. Brooks.
Kathy turned to Komen for comfort and with their Big Pink Footprint Initiative young survivors find support and strength with each other.
She walked in her first Race for the Cure with a bald head after losing her hair to chemo treatments.
"Team Trow, that was our first team and we walked in the race and we raised over $8,000 that year," said Kathy.
Now she is a race co-chair and works with other breast cancer patients.
"Just seeing all these other women, empowering them just 'look you're not alone in this, there's people fighting for you,'" she says she tells those patients.
The Team Trow at Penn Medicine's Woodberry Facility is ready for race day on Sunday.
Susan G. Komen Philadelphia Race for the Cure raises about $2 million annually for local programs and research.
You can register online until Saturday and also in person at the race on Sunday.

This is another exciting week for mommy and baby! Having made it past the third trimester point, you are, both, only weeks away from meeting one another! At 30 weeks pregnant, there's only 10 more weeks, give or take, and you will be bringing into this world one of the most influential beings of your life! If you haven't yet started to research labor and delivery, the birthing process, and what will happen within the following hours to the following weeks after the birth, now is a great time to start. There are a ton of books and websites on the web that can inform you about any questions or concerns you may have. It's better to go into the delivery room as peaceful and knowledgeable as possible.
Weighing in at almost 3 pounds this week, your baby is starting to put on some of that adorable baby fat! Growing in length as well, at approximately 15-16 inches long this 30th week of your pregnancy, your baby will use the next 10 weeks to fill out the tiny newborn frame you'll be amazed with for ever! With all of the quick growth (growing from almost invisible to a 7 pound 20 inch long baby in only 40 weeks is pretty "quick", right?) now filling out your belly, you're probably able to determine everything from your baby's arms, knees, feet, and her head, back, and butt. At first, feeling your baby move can be quite awesome, but actually seeing your baby's body move around inside your own can be pretty wild, too!
At 30 weeks pregnant, you may be feeling super-tired, moody, unsure about certain foods, and in the bathroom all the time! Sound familiar? Just when you thought your pregnancy was absolutely perfect, you're jerked back to the beginning all over again… but there's hope! 1) Trouble sleeping? Use pillows between your knees and under your belly or back, a different sleeping location (the couch or a lazy boy recliner), and just get more of it – naps of an hour or two at any time throughout the day can work wonders! 2) Loss of energy? Keep moving! Exercise not only makes your body and your mind feel better, but can help you feel better about your pregnant appearance. Make sure that you limit your "workouts" to brisk walks (and sit-ups are out, by the way!) and really low-key and painless activities. This suggestion works triple-duty: healthy activity for mom and baby, increased blood circulation and joint-pain relief, and an easier delivery. 3) Trouble eating? The dramatically reduced space in your tummy may make your favorite meal a no-no all over again, but you can find relief in safe antacids approved by your physician, smaller meals throughout the day, and avoiding anything too spicy or "strange" that could trigger the eject button.
30 weeks pregnant marks yet another milestone of only 10 weeks left until your baby makes her debut! With only these few short weeks remaining, try to maintain a low-key and pampered lifestyle as much as possible. Sleep, sleep, and more sleep is the best remedy for most ailments in pregnancy. Don't be discouraged by your tiredness, moodiness, or frustrations with food because you can take a lot of control of your not-so-fabulous symptoms by just paying more attention to what your body needs. 10 weeks will go by quickly, so rest up and prep yourself and everyone else for the big changes about to take place… while resting up!

|"Cookery is the art of preparing food for the nourishment of the body. Prehistoric man may have lived on uncooked foods, but there are no savage races today who do not practice cookery in some way, however crude. Progress in civilization has been accompanied by progress in cookery."
~Fannie Merritt Farmer, The Boston Cooking School Cook Book, 1896~
Often credited as "the mother of level measurements" or, "the pioneer of the modern recipe", Fannie Merritt Farmer was born on March 23, 1857 in Boston Massachusetts. As a young girl, Fannie Farmer's family moved to Medford, Massachusetts.
Fannie Merritt Farmer lived in a duplex house which stood on this site until destroyed by fire in 1979. The Farmer family owned the house throughout her lifetime. Fannie moved to Medford as a child and attended Medford Public Schools and the Unitarian Church. At the age of 13, the redheaded student became paralyzed from the waist down and dropped out of Medford High School. She eventually recovered but always retained a limp. Fannie Farmer always considered Medford her home. She graduated from the Boston Cooking School in 1889 and became its director in 1891. In 1896 she edited the world famous "Boston Cooking School Cookbook," also known as the "Bride's Bible." In 1902 she opened "Miss Farmer's School of Cookery." Called "the mother of level measurement," she was proud of her introduction into cooking of exact measurement. After her death her heirs allowed her name to be associated with the candies by the Fanny Farmer Candy Shops, Inc. source
Fannie Farmer first became interested in cooking as a young child while confined to a wheel chair. Due to her illness, her education ended abrubtly and she recovered slowly. To occupy herself she read as many cookbooks as she possibly could find, including the greatest chefs before her time. Her adaptation for precise measurement was a result of much experimentation. No one before Fannie Farmer had explained accurate measurements in recipes. Measurment standards of the time were unspecified. Now, I find them charming:) a teacup full of sherry, enough water to float an egg, a nut of butter. It is often difficult to translate stirrings of the past. With these standardized measurements producing reliable results, even the inexperienced cook was able to create a masterpiece. It's no wonder that when she edited the edition of one of America's most popular cookbooks, The Boston Cooking School Cook Book (1896) it also became known as "The Bride's Bible." It has also caused quite a bit of confusion.
Two Boston Cooking School Cookbooks!
An on going debate in the world of cookbooks seems to brew and simmer. There are those who accuse Fannie Farmer of downright plagiarism. There are those who do not. I can certainly understand the debate and quite frankly, my opinion doesn't really matter. I just would like to say, personally, I have more of a problem digesting the claim that Miss Farmer "invented" the use of level measurements" or is "the mother of level measurements." Perhaps, the notion of precise measurement was easier for the housewife to swallow coming from Farmer. 1896 was not the first time anyone had attempted to interpret pounds, gills, scruples, tea cupfuls etc. into household measurements. I recall reading, British writer Eliza Acton, had been publishing precise and tested recipes fifty years earlier. That's all I have to say on that subject.
The pre-Fannie Farmer Boston Cooking-School Cook Book is one of my most treasured cookbooks. It was published in 1883, and authored by Mrs. D. A. Lincoln. The book is subtitled "What To Do and What Not To Do in Cooking." Mrs. Lincoln was the founder of The Boston Cooking School. Fannie Merritt Farmer was a student at the school in 1887 and graduated in 1889. She eventually became principal of the school from 1891 until 1902 when she opened Miss Farmer's School of Cookery on August 23, 1902.
Both women had different approaches to domestic science which was reflected in their individual schools, as well as their Boston Cooking School Cookbooks. At Miss Farmer's School of Cookery, classes were designed for training housewives with emphasis on practical food preparation. Mrs. Lincoln's approach was aimed at professional cooks. As I browse through the pages of Mrs. Lincoln's cookbook, there doesn't seem to be any constant pattern used in the recipes themselves. Some of the recipes contain ingredients and directions in column form while others have the ingredients and directions in paragraph form but the ingredients are set apart in italics. There are those who believe Fannie Farmer's book by the same name is a re-working of the original book by Mrs. Lincoln. In her book Cookbooks Worth Collecting, Mary Barile states:
Even though she was director of the school, Farmer's The Boston Cooking School Cookbook (1896) was a personal gamble: according to her agreement with the original publishers, she paid for the book's publication while the company acted simply as the sales outlet. Farmer was also placed in the uncomfortable position of updating the school's text, which was originally written by Mrs. Lincoln, a formidable woman who was still alive and teaching and who still claimed many readers and fans. A general rewrite was performed, and the main difference between the two women and their styles is illustrated in the opening chapter. Mrs. Lincoln took the highhanded thought that "all civilized nations cook their food, to improve its taste and digestibility. The degree of civilization is often measured by the cuisine." Fannie was more down to earth, noting that "progress in civilization has been accompanied by progress in cookery."
Another rendition lies in the signatures of the book titled The Taste of America by John & Karen Hess.
While Mrs. Lincoln attributed many of her recipes to the donors, including Miss Parloa, "Mrs. Towne's Matilda," "an unknown friend," and so on, the only source credited in Miss Farmer is an unidentified "French Chef," to whom she assigns several exotic recipes such as mulligatawny soup. Clearly, she did not create hundreds of recipes out of the blue. She learned cooking from Mrs. Lincoln's book (the textbook at the Boston Cooking School at the time), but did not acknowledge it in any way. Now, recipes that have many sources need not be attributed; Miss Farmer, however, exaggerated in this regard. She was by no means the first to appropriate other people's recipes as her own, but as the patron saint of American housewives she put her seal of approval on it, and contributed to the moral climate of the cookbook world today, where plagiarism is the norm.
The Boston Cooking School Cookbook published January 7, 1896, by Fannie Merritt Farmer became widely known as "The Fannie Farmer Cookbook" long before its many editions. But, I don't think it was her first book. According to the reference book Vintage Cookbooks & Advertising Leaflets by Sandra J. Norman & Karrie K. Andes, Fannie Farmer also authored Selections from a New Cook Book introduced by Rumford Chemical Works in 1896. I suppose it's a matter of which came first. Fannie Farmer spent her later years lecturing and co-writing a monthly column for Woman's Home Companion along with Cora Dexter Farmer Perkins. If given a choice, it is often written that Miss Farmer wished to be remembered as a teacher who instilled in her students the proper diet and nutrition needed for the care of the ill. This was reflected in her book titled Food and Cookery for the Sick and Convalescent. Fannie Farmer continued to lecture, write, and invent recipes until her death in 1915. I have an issue of American Cookery Magazine dated April 1915. It contains an obituary stating that Fannie Merritt Farmer died that year on January 14. Her school continued to flourish after her death, under the leadership of Alice Bradley, until it closed in 1944. When candymaker Frank O'Connor opened his first candy shop in New York in 1919, he named it after Fannie Merritt Farmer. source
The tales of Fannie Farmer and The Boston Cooking School Cookbook vibrate across most culinary websites on the internet. I have provided only a handful to begin your journey. The last edition which held the copyright of Fannie Merritt Farmer was in 1914. The following recipe is from The Boston Cooking School Cook Book published in 1924 with a copyright by Cora D. Perkins. I thought it appropriate to include an Easter Salad a la Fannie Farmer since today is also Easter Sunday. Enjoy!
|Put eggs in saucepan, cover with boiling water, and let boil fifteen minutes. Remove shells and while hot hold between thumb and finger while pressing into apple shapes keeping under a stream of cold water. Mix a bit of Fruit Red with cold water and apply to eggs, using a brush. Insert a clove to represent blossom end, and a stem and leaves to represent stem end (hot house lilac leaves answer the purpose), and arrange on lettuce leaves. Serve with Mayonnaise Piquante
|Mayonnaise Piquante To one cup Mayonnaise dressing add 2 tablespoons each, olives and pickles, finely chopped.
This pictured Easter Salad recipe is from The Presto Book of Menus & Recipes by Della Thompson Lutes (undated). It is a beautifully illustrated promotional book for Presto canning products published by a distributor named the Cupples Company in St. Louis, Missouri.

BET Awards: Host Leslie Jones' 5 Funniest Moments Of The Night
LOL! We can't stop laughing at all the funny things host Leslie Jones did and said during the 2017 BET Awards on June 25. From her opening monologue to mocking Amber Rose, every moment was hilarious. Check out our 5 favorites here!
Wasn't Leslie Jones the funniest awards show host ever? During the 2017 BET Awards on June 25, she had us rolling on the floor laughing after everything she said and did. Not only did she mock Amber Rose, but also did a hilarious skit, during which she reunited with her 1994 self. Check out our five favorite moments of hers below!
1. During her opening monologue, Leslie started the show off strong. Did you know she's almost 50 years old? Yeah, neither did we, and Leslie knows it, so she made a joke about how young she looks. "I'm older than all y'all, I'm about to be 50-years-old in September. That's right. Black don't crack, but you do have to use some lotion," she quipped.
2. Leslie also said she was kidnapped at 21, which was shocking, but maybe she was joking? "I'm definitely having more fun than you young folks. When I was in my 20's, I lived. I think I got kidnapped when I was 21. Do you know how it sexy it is to get kidnaped?" she asked. "You pull your pants down and and an angel fly out of there. You pull MY pants down and a fire breathing dragon will come outta there," she yelled. Then, she added how her dragon "will keep your meat warm," as the camera panned to the audience. So funny!
3. Leslie later called Amber Rose out for posting a picture of her "bush" on Instagram just a few weeks ago. She also said they have "something in common," meaning they both have a hairy crotch area. However, Leslie added, "Yours looks like James Harden and mine looks like Frederick Douglass." DEAD.
4. During another moment, Leslie Jones went back to 1994, when she worked at Roscoe's. Her present self talked to her past self, and it was hilarious! 2017 Leslie told 1994 Leslie that one day she'll be able to buy weed at a store, and as soon as she heard that Boyz II Men's "I'll Make Love To You" started playing. So funny!
5. Finally, just before SZA's performance, there was a technical difficulty. And Leslie Jones handled the snafu with great humor, just staring at the camera and bugging her eyes out. We laughed, so it definitely took our attention off what was really going on.
HollywoodLifers, which Leslie Jones moment was your favorite of the night? Tell us below!

"If it swings, they
and will play it!"
The Swing Commanders is a stunningly
vibrant and versatile group
that performs an exciting mix of 1940s classics, boogie-woogie,
western swing, 50's jump jazz and more!
Every member of the Swing Commanders
sings and plays
at least one instrument, sometimes three, Yet what makes
them stand out even above their incredible music ability and
performing skills is their joie-de-vivre.
Peter Riley
Peter's knowledge of Music Hall and Bing Crosby songs was formed on his Grandmother's knee. In the late 80's he appeared at the first Burnley Blues Festival, and in the pubs of Oldham and Manchester began to learn stagecraft.
As front-man and main songwriter with The Winchesters, Peter showed up at lots of festivals and on Primetime TV. Forming The Swing Commanders, he wanted a musically versatile, visual and energetic band. His dream came true!
Peter also performs in swing trio
GELATOS and his
glam rock band THE
GLAMTASTIC 4 where
he can be seen wearing some daring and
skimpy little numbers….!
Daisy Thurkettle
If she's not playing music, you'll find Daisy diving for treasure on shipwrecks or baking mighty fine treats…..
Daisy also sings in the Andrews Sisters styled trio, The Honeybirds, as well as playing violin and singing lead vocals in The Old Time String Band.
Personal Website: http://http://thehoneybirds.wordpress.com/
Dan Smith
Dan has travelled the world for some years working as a show band guitarist on cruise ships for Carnival, Princess and Celebrity Cruises. Whilst on board he spent every day playing with, and learning from some of the best musicians in the world as well as backing high profile acts from the West end, Broadway and other areas of the entertainment industry.
Now back on solid ground, Dan delivers a bi weekly live Web stream with the well known Tom Quale and also has his own guitar tuition youtube channel called Beyond the lick.
Dan's wide knowledge of different musical styles makes him an accomplished and versatile musician which comes in handy with The Swing Commanders where he juggles Swing, Western Swing, Jazz and Country effortlessly! Look out also for his handkerchief tricks…..!
Siena Lloyd
Before joining the Swing Commanders, Siena, a professional actress, could be found on our screens, appearing in Channel 4's, Hollyoaks among other things, or touring UK Theatres in productions such as The Blonde Bombshells of 1943, Oh! What a Lovely War, and HEIDI – A Goats tale, so it's only natural that she would add a touch of "drama" to the band!
Siena also runs an educational theatre company called ARTFUL PLAYGROUND which delivers theatre and music workshops, courses and classes to children. Siena has written two children's books for one of the musical projects which can be found on shop shelves in Manchester!
As the Musical Director of The Swing
Commanders, Siena is responsible for the
band's musical arrangements. She plays the
saxophone, clarinet, piano, double bass,and
the accordian in the band so Siena has her
work cut out for her. However she still
finds time to do the styling and
presentation, CD/DVD cover design, and the
band's social and online networking!
Siena also plays in swing trio THE GELATOS alongside Peter!
Stuart Smith
Having spent most of his professional musical career on the UK jazz circuit playing alongside some of the best performers of jazz (John Hallam, Jamie Brownfield, Tom Kincaid, Amy Roberts, Jeff Barnhart (USA), Spatz Langham, Matthias Seuffurt (GER) and Duke Heitger USA), Stuart jazzes up the Swing Commanders with his special beats and pieces!
Stuart has appeared at many of the UK Jazz Festivals including the Keswick Jazz festival, Upton Jazz Festival, Dove Holes, Bude Jazz Festival and the Edinburgh Jazz festival. Stuart has toured Europe countless times drumming all over Denmark, Holland and Germany. One of his highlights was performing at the legendary Dresden Dixieland Jazz Festival.
Stuart has also played with Martin
Bennett's Old Green River Band – a band
which favours the sounds of New Orleans and
the blues of Chicago, Small Weller, and The
Manchester School of Samba.
Being a vintage car enthusiast Stuart also makes himself useful when it comes to our old van – usually pushing it!

When you need a re-roof in Beaverton that's made to last, trust in the expert roofers at Pioneer Roofers. Our technicians will carefully inspect your roof before proceeding. There are instances when a re-roof in Beaverton is the right choice and other times when a tear off is your best option. We know which will provide you with the most effective roof repairs depending on the condition of your roof.
Residential Re-Roof
There are certain criteria that residential roofs must meet. Many counties do not allow more than 3 layers of roof tiles. If you have previously performed a re-roof in Beaverton, it may not be the right option. Some common signs that often necessitate the need for a re-roof in Beaverton are:
- Missing Shingles
- Warped Wood Shakes
- Cracked Tiles
- Thin or Brittle Shingles
Commercial Re-Roof
Depending on the condition and extent of the damage, we'll help you determine if a re-roof in Beaverton is the right option for you. With experience performing re-roofs in Beaverton for more than 20 years, we'll provide an efficient reliable re-roof. We use the best roofing materials with the longest warranties to match the incredible craftsmanship we exercise on every residential roof repair in Beaverton.
Tear offs and Re-Roofing
If your current roof is damaged beyond a certain point, or you have already had re-roofing, a tear off may be your best and only option. Roofs can only be so many layers thick, and we'll determine how may layers your roof has before giving a recommendation. Sometimes a tear off and roof replacement can be more economical in the long run as well. With labor costs accounting for a large percentage of roof work, it's important to have the right work performed.
Residential Tear Offs
There are many reasons for a residential tear off. Besides often being more cost efficient in the long run, tear offs in Beaverton are also important when:
- Your roofing is in poor condition.
- You already have too many layers on your roof.
- The decking on your roof is bad.
- Your current shingles are incompatible with your roof.
Commercial Tear Offs
Tear offs in Beaverton are hard work. Our trusted professional roofers don't just perform extensive re-roof and tear offs in a timely manner, we keep you safe. As professionals we understand and account for the hazards of roofing. It's always our goal to save you time, money, and stress by providing the best roofing services in Beaverton. Whether you need a tear off or re-roof in Beaverton, call (503) 281-0305 or contact Pioneer Roofers today.
Other Services Include:
As a great place to raise a family, Beaverton has seen extensive growth in the previous decades.
The local Beaverton City Library offers many events and classes that are beneficial to both. Scheduled events include a writers group, technology classes, and even a song circle.
Those looking to further expand their relationship to the Beaverton community have to visit the Beaverton Farmers Market. Going strong since 1988, this local hot spot has produce from farmers and vendors throughout the Beaverton area. As if fresh produce and local good weren't enough, Beaverton residents frequently get to watch free music acts playing at the market.

In this household there's always something hot brewing each time this bitchy wife is with her horny hubby. They make sure that even with some other people around, they spend quality time together in the most playful ways. Dirty Wives Exposed got these pictures from our featured amateur housewife who loves to tease her partner by posing naked in her photos while doing all sorts of sleazy poses.
This is, of course, just right before they jump into a much more exciting time in the bedroom or wherever free space they can go nasty around the home. This horny blonde MILF likes to display her still tight and yummy body while wearing the sexy lingerie her hubby gifts her with or simply tease him by giving a strip show and go naked while spreading her cunt and at times, gapes her ass. They enjoy going over kinky pictures of other couples here in DirtyWivesExposed.com and just by looking at them for a quick time, they already get fired up and ready for their own quickie sexy time. It would always start with this slutty wifey being a tease in these photos and they already know what will come next when her lover can no longer hold the camera to shoot and just wanted to give his bitch what she begs for.
Her hubby takes time tho and he lets her do all the work in making him hard. But since she's one hell of a sex siren, it won't take long until he finds his crotch with a throbbing bulge, which needs tending to. Enjoy this naughty MILF's hot tits, fine round ass and creamy cunt. She's really one hot momma fit to be anyone's nasty cougar.

happy blog birthday to me! - February 28, 2005—
What d'ya know? A year and a day ago, I posted my first item to this blog. It seems more than a year, maybe a decade? An aeon?
I couldn't have imagined, when I began, what amazing things this year - and this blog - would have brought me. Many of them were amazing-bad, and many more were amazing-good. I've endured a miscarriage, the birth of my first niece, a rocky pregnancy that seems to be nearly at its end, the rise and fall of my mama's group, the reconnection with many old friends and the forging of many great new friendships. I never would have believed that this blog would be, not the vehicle to great success in my last job, but possibly what brought my last job to its end. And the conduit to my current job. And the launch into a career as a "professional" blogger. I never would have imagined that my husband would lose 40 pounds and complete his Army training by my blog-aversary.
This blog has offered me many opportunities I wouldn't have envisioned, but most of all, it has allowed me to connect to so many mamas, around the country and around my beloved hometown. It's how I stay in touch with my old friends and how I make new ones. It's where I get my context and my needed ego-boosts. It's where I vent and where I expand my horizons.
In a year I've gone from just a mama to "cafe mama." For those of you who have met me through my blogging, I have to say, it's been wonderful to get to know you. For those of you who just hang out and watch - thanks for caring enough to read my words without any provocation whatsoever, I hope that I've given you what you came here for, whether information, reinforcement, or a cute photo of a pregnant belly. For my friends who come here to stay in touch with my life, I love you guys! And I'm glad to be able to provide this living newsletter.
What will the next year bring? I can't imagine, but I hope it will include a healthy baby boy, a new job for my husband, a beautiful wedding in Panama for my sister Jenny, a new location for my indoor park, happiness and productivity in my latest "day" job, the start of preschool for Everett, and...fame and fortune? A book deal? Who knows. I can dream.
What I've learned this year: it's good to talk about things publically, even those things that you bite your lip when you look back and think, darn, could I have prevented that if I'd just kept my thoughts to myself? I've made a few people angry (unintentionally), and more than a few uncomfortable. I'm happy to remove anything that you find intrudes on your privacy, especially as my blog becomes more popular. But those things that simply intrude on my own privacy? Sharing those things, while sometimes embarrassing or potentially damning, is a fantastic way of dealing with them. I appreciate this outlet, and hope you can, too.
