When using Arduino® software, drivers may need to be installed onto the type of board that is being used in an electronic device. The type of driver that is used is dependent on two factors: the type of operating system (OS) and the model Arduino® board being used. Before connecting an Arduino® board to the computer, the OS of the computer and the model of the board should be determined. Some of the drivers will have to come from the company website of the particular OS, while the Arduino® drivers will be downloaded and installed from a website with drivers entitled USB VCP. The driver bundles are extracted from a compressed file and can then be used on the computer and board.
Max 7221 and Max 7219 are commonly used as Arduino® drivers for boards, and can be found on certain websites. The process of installing its ports is used for one type of OS, and these drivers are used for boards that are earlier models, predating the Uno and MGA 2560 Arduino® boards. If these particular boards are being used, then there is no need for installation of any drivers. In other models, however, Max 7221 and Max 7219 should be downloaded from the driver website by double-clicking on an icon that includes all the ports needed for the driver. An installer prompt will be displayed, where instructions on installing the drivers are provided for the user to follow.
On a different OS, installing the drivers requires opening certain ports after connecting the board and downloading the Arduino® environment. To do this requires going into the system/security management window and opening a device manager. On the ports icon, right-clicking will provide an option for the port software to be updated under the particular Arduino® port. Upon completion of the update, the Arduino® drivers will be installed and the computer will restart to finish installation.
The Max 7221 and Max 7219 Arduino® drivers are Light-Emitting Diode (LED) drivers that control integrated circuits (ICs) used for driving 64 separate LEDs or as many as eight digits within a seven-segment display. These drivers perform implementation of a slave interface which is Serial Peripheral Interconnect (SPI) compatible, controllable from Arduino® by use of only three digitized output pins. The Arduino® drivers have two capacitors which suppress interference of noise signals from supplies of power lines. These capacitors are placed very close to each other, and the ICs are powered by 5 or more volts of electricity to function.
One of our editors will review your suggestion and make changes if warranted. Note that depending on the number of suggestions we receive, this can take anywhere from a few hours to a few days. Thank you for helping to improve wiseGEEK!

It's been so long since I have posted I had a terrible time finding my picture in my computer, and now am trying to link it to Darnell's challenge! Computer ineptness, but I hope I am forgiven. I made this card for my BFF Jayne's birthday which was last Sunday. She loved the card and loves the embossed edges. My NBUS is the Stampin' Up! embossing folder called Filigree Frame. Isn't it pretty? The flower I made from the Flower Patch set and die combo using SU's Blackberry Bliss and Wisteria Wonder card stock. A shiny gold brad centers the flower and tries to match the purple and gold embossing powder I used to stamp the sentiment. I wish my photo was better! The stamp is an old SU one from 2001. Still love it.
I posted on SCS that my word for 2015 is DO. I promise to try, folks, to do some more blogging. Also need to stock up on birthday cards for all the family ones coming up.
Take care, dear readers. Thanks for stopping by.

There is so much behind a great bottle of Nickel & Nickel Single-Vineyard wine: carefully farmed vineyards, impeccable winemaking and a team of people passionate about our wines. Through our blog, we'll give you an inside look at the personalities and stories behind the scenes.
We invite you to explore our singular point of view and see what makes Nickel & Nickel and our single-vineyard wines so special. See you soon!
An abundance of texture and color lead to the Sullenger House entrance.
The grounds of our 1870s-era gentleman's farmstead here in the Napa Valley are planted with the same flowers that may have flourished on this bucolic country estate more than a century ago. A stroll in the rose gardens, surrounded by the architecture of a bygone era, is enough to overwhelm you with a sense of time travel. A palette of soft pastel blues, lavenders, pinks and purples blanket the beds around the Sullenger house and main entrance to the winery. Blue and white Victoria Salvias are ready to push their spires ever higher above the waves of petunias, rising like candelabras.
Working together with my team and Mother Nature, we form a path connecting the past to the present, with a keen eye to the future. Please join us in the gardens as the days of summer saunter in.

Wessi Benderlieva Karl Hofer was born in 1971 in Sofia, Bulgaria. She has been drawing and painting since her early childhood. Early on Wessi endured periods of stagnation and political restrictions in the then Communist Bulgaria. She studied at the prestigious Sofia School of Fine Arts. But her greatest lesson that she learnt, in her own words was, "That there are things that no one can take from us. My thoughts and images that I carry with me are indestructible." Only through art, she was able to express things that are not possible in thought or words.
In 1991 she graduated from the Sofia School of Fine Arts, with her thesis work, "The Tower of Bable" awarded first prize. This series took Wessi to Vienna, where she immediate admittance to the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts. Wessi won the first prize in the "Lenzing AG", and an award in the "Datentechnik" Competition, Vienna, in 1992.
She then won a scholarship at the Montclair State University in New Jersey in 1993, where she got the chance to discover a new world. She also worked at the "National Academy of Art and Design," New York City. Wessi later learned the painting restoration in the master classes for restoration and conservation at the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts. She became a member of the International Group for Realism.
In 1996 she graduated with honors for painting and graphics from the Vienna Academy of Fine Arts. In the following year, she was invited to exhibit at the H.R. Giger Museum in Switzerland.
Wessi lives and works in Vienna with her family. Her artworks are included in many private collections.

Todd Wasserman posted on Mashable this week on the topic of building your information marketing brand socially. He asks and answers the following:
"Do you follow a brand in social media? Are you glad you did? If that's the case, they are either doing one of three things:
Connecting with one of your passions and/or interests.
Entertaining you with their engaging personality.
Providing interesting and/or important information to you. "
This is pretty basic thinking, and in my opinion it's right on the mark. My own question to you is pretty much the same, which is, "What attracts you?" I would like you to set aside the "making money online" idea and answer the question without that consideration. What ELSE attracts you personally?
After you really think about it, and make some notes, then see if Wasserman's three points listed above are right on the mark for you, too. If one of them hits home, then focus on that one for building your own information marketing brand as well.
I'm going to focus on the "engaging personality" magnet for a moment. How are you doing on that one? Have you received any feedback from clients that helps you understand how you come across to others, especially in the context of your speaking, consulting and coaching?
I can tell you how I come across, because my clients tell me. I am intense. Yup, that's my personality, so I use it for my own benefit and also to benefit others. It has worked for me a long time, and once you get in the groove with your own magnetic knowledge, personality and personal interests, those are the things that will attract your info product customers, too.

Republican 2012 primaries may be a 'demolition derby,' Huckabee predicts
WASHINGTON – Former Arkansas governor Mike Huckabee, a leading GOP presidential hopeful, predicted the 2012 primaries would be a bloodbath for his party and could gift reelection to President Barack Obama on a silver plate.
In a wide-ranging interview with The Washington Post, Huckabee revealed his concerns about running again in 2012 and offered a strikingly pessimistic take on his party's prospects for capturing the White House.
Obama "is going to be much tougher to beat than people in our party think," Huckabee said. "He's going to have a clear ride through to the Democratic nomination, because no one is going to oppose him or challenge him.
"He's going to start out with a billion dollars, no opponent, so he can save his money to the last four months. He's got a huge social network and he has the power of the incumbency. People underestimate how sweet it is flying on Air Force One with all the trappings of the presidency."
Meanwhile, Republicans "could in fact end up with a demolition derby," he lamented. "Whoever emerges will come out bloody, bruised and broke."
If polling is any indication, Huckabee is a top-three candidate for the GOP presidential nomination in 2012, sharing the stage with former governors Mitt Romney and Sarah Palin. The clear frontrunner for the Iowa caucuses, which he won in 2008, Huckabee has built a loyal nationwide following among religious conservatives, a critical portion of the Republican base.
In remarks that may irk the party faithful, Huckabee questioned whether the tea party — which he praised for bringing disenfranchised voters into the political process — would permit the nomination of a candidate who's more interested in governing than feeding red meat to the base.
"What I don't know is, does this translate into a party of such ultraorthodoxy that no one with a record of actually governing can get through the mire?" he said.
Huckabee was so vocal to the Post regarding his concerns about running in 2012 — money, preparation, health, and his general dislike of the process — that the ensuing headline was, "Does Mike Huckabee still want to be president?"
The former governor's misgivings could keep him away from the contest, of course, but his comments to the Post could also simply be part of a media strategy that involves lower expectations in the early stages.

Well it is day 2. I've done research on what yarns I want to use for my products and what will be cost effective. I would like to use natural fibres (aka no acrylic) to produce quality items. I am thinking Knit Picks may be a good brand to start off with. I am also trying to decide whether or not to buy customized labels for my items. I think I should – it will make them look more professional.
I am going on a trip on Wednesday and will have limited access to the computer but hopefully plenty of time to knit! Will bring yarn and needles to work on my designs!
I am going to look into whether or not I need to get a business license for the adventure!
All in all I didn't get much done today because it was way too nice outside!

Have you ever been tempted to accept a pay cut? When evaluating a job, there are many factors to consider in addition to salary: the job itself, your level of responsibility, your title, potential for future growth, and so on. There are also compensation perks like vacation time, bonuses and company equity to factor in. So, should salary be your primary focus? Is there ever a good time to willingly take a pay cut?
Money picture from Shutterstock
The team at LearnVest spoke to HR experts and real people who have been through it before, to learn when it is — and isn't — worth accepting a job at a lesser salary. Here are seven times you may consider taking a pay cut, and what the experts had to say.
When You're Making A Career Change
One of the big reasons to take a pay cut is if you're switching industries. It may be worth a cut in pay "to gain a new set of skills and experiences that will broaden your skill set," says Trellis Usher, founder of HR company T.R. Ellis Group. "It's unreasonable to expect to receive top dollar when you move into a role where you have little to no experience. In these situations, it's usually a longer-term play to take a cut in pay so you can make a significant jump in pay after 18 to 24 months."
David Bakke of MoneyCrashers.com remembers when he took a pay cut a few years ago because he wanted to get out of the restaurant industry. "I was tired of all the long hours and weekend work," he says. "My new position involved a salary cut of roughly 10 per cent, but also afforded me more time to spend with family and friends." At the end of the day, you can't expect one industry to meet the salary expectations of a totally different field.
When You Crave Work-Life Balance
A recent survey by the talent acquisition and career development firm Mom Corps found that 45 per cent of working adults are willing to give up some percentage of their salary for more flexibility at work — on average, they're willing to relinquish nearly 8.6 per cent of their income.
"I think the greatest takeaway from this statistic is that salary isn't everything for everyone," says Allison O'Kelly, founder and CEO of Mom Corps. "Would you be happy to take a slight pay cut if you could skip your commute and work from home on Fridays? Would starting your own business make you a more fulfilled and happy professional, and allow you to work in the manner that you want to?"
Usher made a similar switch in her own life: "I took a job that required less travel and allowed me to work from home a couple of days a week after having a new baby. I wanted to stay in the corporate arena without losing too much ground, but needed to take on a role that was less demanding because of my family needs," she says.
Similarly, LeeAnn Shattuck took a 15 per cent pay cut 13 years ago when she left Accenture, then called Anderson Consulting, to join IBM. "I had been working 80 hours a week with Accenture, travelling five days a week. IBM offered me the opportunity to stop travelling and work from home," she said. Even after all this time, she's never regretted the decision.
When The New Opportunity Is Way Better
Sometimes a new job offer is a fantastic opportunity, like if you are dying to work for a specific company, or you are miserable at your current job and have the chance to nab your dream gig. In her first job out of college, Annabelle Chung* was making $US42,000 and expecting an annual bonus of about $US10,000. She received another job offer at a startup, but the fledgling company couldn't afford to match her prior salary. Not only was the new job offering only $US35,000, it would require walking away from her bonus just a month before it came due.
All the same, Chung was beyond burnt out: "I would come home crying regularly and felt like I was losing a grip on who I was." Although she was making a pretty good wage for a fresh college grad, she didn't sense much potential for future growth. "I feared that if I stayed there any longer, I'd get pigeonholed and never be able to leave," she says. "This new job was everything I was looking for. It was my dream job … except for the salary."
In the end, she lost out on about $US17,000, but finally felt free. "After making the switch, I felt doors opening up to me, and learned so much from the new position," she says. She excelled at her new job, and as the company succeeded, she more than reclaimed her old salary — after only a few years, she was making nearly double what she had at the old gig.
When It All Evens Out
If you can reshuffle your priorities and costs so your reduced salary doesn't make a significant difference in your lifestyle, then you've mediated much of the pay cut.
Julia Angelen took a pay cut from $US65,000 to $US50,000 to "get out of one crazy company and to work five minutes from home," she says. Although she was down $US15,000, she saved enough in other costs to at least partially even the score, like "the cost savings in gas, eating out (I often went home for lunch), and massages and wine due to stress," she says. She walked to her new job some days, which further reduced driving costs and squeezed exercise into her day. "My title and level stayed the same, so it was a lateral move. Also, I knew the economy was struggling, so later, it would look like it was economic forces that drove my salary down," she says.
Angelen's salary was reduced on paper — which admittedly could hurt her in future job searches — but she had a ready explanation and a budget that worked out without putting her in the red. Plus, she was far happier. Sounds like a good deal to us! You might find yourself in a similar situation if, for example, your new job brings you to a different city with a lower cost of living, so your lower pay balances out with your lower expenses.
When There's Something You Want More
"Base pay is only one component of an employee's total compensation," Usher explains. "Sometimes it's beneficial for an individual to take less base pay and 'sweeten the deal' in other ways." These other ways could include pay-equivalents, like a signing bonus, annual performance bonus, additional holidays, paid time off or tuition reimbursement.
When Striking Out On Your Own
Maybe you've always wanted to start your own company, or you harbor dreams of freelancing. Either way, self-employment always comes with some risk, often including a short-term pay cut while you get your new company off the ground. Ivan Karp* is a freelance software developer, but he used to work at a consulting firm with long hours, a demanding boss and very little office camaraderie.
He knew he was taking a pay cut by going freelance, but felt it was worth the trade-off: Now he can make his own schedule, and his life is far less stressful. He'd been pining for more time to spend at the gym and with his friends; in his new life as a freelancer, he only works 35 hours a week, and it suits him just fine.
Perhaps best of all, Karp can charge much more by the hour as a freelancer than when he was a salaried employee, so his hourly bump almost makes up for the fact that he works almost part-time.
When You've Hit The Salary Ceiling
If you work hard and have been at your job for a long time, you've probably received regular raises. But after enough time, you might max out the salary range for your position. In that situation, "future increases are not possible without a promotion," says Timothy Wiedman, associate professor of management and human resources at Doane College in Nebraska.
If you've maxed out your salary potential and your career path is blocked (say, it's a small company and there's no room for a promotion, or someone else already holds the job you want), then it might be time to look for another opportunity. "Taking a position in a fast-growing company, for example, may lead to multiple opportunities for career growth and salary increases," he says, "so a short-term salary cut may simply be seen as an investment in better long-term career prospects."
But Make Sure You're Really Prepared …
Holly Paul, the chief human resources officer of Vocus, a cloud marketing software company, explains that a pay cut may be worthwhile in some instances, but isn't something you should accept lightly. "It certainly makes sense for some people to take a pay cut, but I'd be cautious," she says. "You need to know yourself well enough to understand if a pay cut will lower your motivation and passion for work. You also need to take a close look at your personal finances to make sure that the pay reduction won't create a situation that's not feasible at home."
If you do accept a pay cut, you may need to adjust your budget. And if the change in your earning power will be significant, a financial planner can help you prioritise where to cut and where to keep on saving. The bottom line? "Be self-aware and make sure that you're taking a pay cut for the right reasons and you won't regret it later," says Paul.

Client Letter Q4 2016
January 11, 2017
The fourth quarter of 2016 delivered more unexpected events, continuing with what had already been a surprising year. Few people predicted Donald Trump's victory in the U.S. presidential election, a result that had a strong influence on capital markets. Although1 stocks initially sold off after the vote, investors soon turned back to equities, anticipating a pro-growth Trump agenda characterized by tax cuts, reduced regulation and increased infrastructure spending. The "Trump effect" was even more pronounced in U.S. and global bond markets, where yields rose dramatically as prices fell.
Most global equity markets advanced in the fourth quarter, resulting in generally solid results for the year. The MSCI World Index rose 2.0% in U.S. dollar terms during the three-month period, bringing its gain for the year to 8.2% (4.9% in Canadian dollars). The S&P 500 Index, a broad measure of the U.S. equity market, was up 3.8% for the quarter and finished 2016 with an increase of 12.0% (8.6% in Canadian dollars), including dividends.
Canada's equity market, meanwhile, completed a strong turnaround from the previous year's weak results, finishing as one of the world's best-performing markets in 2016. Canadian energy and materials companies were buoyed by rising prices for oil and other commodities. Supportive business conditions and a post-election rally in Canadian bank stocks, based on the expectation of higher global interest rates, helped to boost the market further. The benchmark S&P/TSX Composite Index climbed 4.5% in the fourth quarter, capping off an impressive 21.1% gain for the year. Overseas, markets were somewhat mixed, with strong quarterly results in Japan, Britain, Germany and France, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index lost ground amid relatively tepid results in Asia. China's Shanghai Index was up in the fourth quarter, but finished the year with a loss of more than 12% in local currency terms.
Based on uncertainty in the global economy, bond yields had remained depressed for most of the year, but sharply reversed course in the fourth quarter, reflecting the market's anticipation of U.S. fiscal expansion and higher inflation with Trump's election. Although not unexpected, the U.S. Federal Reserve announced a long-awaited 0.25% increase in the federal funds rate in mid-December, causing bond prices to fall further. The yield on the benchmark U.S. 10-year government bond, which had reached a record low in July, climbed 53% during the quarter, finishing the year at 2.44%.
Canadian bond yields also rose in this context, but the Bank of Canada kept its overnight lending rate unchanged at 0.50%, citing significant slack in the Canadian economy and lingering uncertainty in the global economy. The FTSE TMX Canada Universe Bond Index, a broad measure of Canadian government and corporate bonds, lost 3.4% for the three-month period. The index remained positive for the year, however, adding 1.7%.
Although 2016's surprises – which in addition to Trump's victory include the decision by the U.K. to leave the European Union and an agreement by many oil-producing countries to limit their output – created volatility and uncertainty in the capital markets, they also created opportunities for experienced investors, and will continue to do so in the coming year. I continue to recommend a diversified, professionally managed portfolio that is tailored to your individual investment objectives to take advantage of opportunities as they arise, while protecting your investments from further volatility.
In closing, I would like to wish you and your family all the best for the year ahead, and to remind you that my team and I are just a phone call away should you wish to discuss your investment portfolio in greater detail.

Greetings from Lucas A. and family,
Our family is well and busy time as we are doing many trainings, teaching and conferences and spending less time with our kids. We are reading the Galatians in our family devotion time and our goal is to have at least 3 studies weekly. We had a pause during Easter as we read the crucifixion, death and resurrection of Christ in John 18-20.
I have been reading and preparing Titus and 1 Peter for the next conference working on the text, And I was challenged with the Titus and the instruction Paul is giving to the elders and pointing to the gospel and fighting the false teachers and prophets.
I did a few teaching sessions over the Skype, I was teaching on salvation and assurance of salvation for the believers and went through couple of chapters in Romans, Colossians, Ephesians and gospel of John. Our training time with Brother J.T. was an encouraging time of learning about the Bibliology, holding the scripture as our final authority and learning the objections from the other religions toward the accuracy of the Bible.
We also had also a great survey on the wisdom literatures and poetry books, learning about the Character of God, sin and weakness of men and how we are in desperate need of a savior, also the background and reason behind and today's applications in our Churches. We spend a good amount of time in prayers and worship with the brothers praying and seeking God for wisdom on how to lead, teach and Shepherd the Afghan church.
We thank HC for their support and prayers standing with us for His Kingdom in Afghanistan. HC support is a great blessing from God and resource to equip the leaders to teach and shepherd according the to the scripture and guidance of the Holy Spirit. Our translation work is going very well, printing Who is Jesus is going well and also on the final review and editing of God's Big Picture. We also started translating 9Marks articles.
Prayers Points: 1- Please pray for the growth of the Church, unity of the leaders 2- Pray for peace and ending violence in Afghanistan. 3- Pray for the translation work that God protect this and give us wisdom. 4- Pray for the next training in May for safety, wisdom and leading of the Holy Spirit for learning and applying the word of God.

I started the brown and green bag as a present for Kristy's birthday, but halfway through I knew I would be keeping it for myself. I made her the blue bag which she was thrilled with.
It really is an amazing little bag, fast, easy and oh-such-the-perfect-size.
***confession- I made the handle way too wide because I never read instructions, so I had to fold it in on itself, which made it a little thicker, and makes me love it more!***
Did I mention is only takes 2 fat quarters and some interfacing? Amazing!
Get the pattern yourself here! Many kudos Rae!

Conservative radio host Laura Ingraham called President Barack Obama's declaration of victory in the battle for Obamacare his "Mission Accomplished" moment, comparing the White House's swagger to President George W. Bush's premature announcement of the end of combat operations in the Iraq War.
Ingraham mocked Obama's excitement over the supposed 7.1 million Obamacare enrollments reached by the March 31 (sort of) deadline, playing Barry Manilow's "Looks Like We Made It" over the White House's braggadocio.
"You know, I was thinking about this," she said. "I was watching Obama — now this is Obama back in campaign mode. They see this whole thing slipping away… looks like you're going to lose all these Senate seats, right?"
"So thinking back," she continued, "who else perhaps did this kind of very early, some would say preemptive, claim of victory when it wasn't clear at all that America had been victorious? Maybe even hanging a banner? What did that banner say on it? 'Mission Accomplished?'"
Ingraham cut to audio from May 2003, when Bush announced from an aircraft carrier that "in the battle of Iraq, the United States and her allies have prevailed." That statement — and the "Mission Accomplished" banner behind him — were roundly mocked after a violent insurgency killed thousands more American soldiers for years afterward.
"Yeah, mission accomplished with Obamacare!" Ingraham laughed. "All we were after is a number. But wait a second, wasn't that number a lot higher when the Supreme Court decision came down? That magic number? It was quite a bit higher. Remember the CBO forecast was millions higher than the 7.1? That was taken down a notch, you know, 7 million."
The radio host explained that despite the Democratic celebrations, the problems with Obamacare are far from over. "Obamacare was all about the uninsured," she noted, but at least one study suggests that only 858,000 previously uninsured Americans — "nowhere near the 7.1 million" — have actually gotten coverage under Obamacare.
"So it wasn't President Bush who hung the 'Mission Accomplished' banner," Ingraham continued. "You know, the ship did. Someone had that idea. But it was a triumphant landing on the boat, and you go out there, you look great."
"Obama looked great yesterday!" she said. "This is Obama in his glory. I'm surprised Jay-Z and Beyonce didn't show up."
"He's should've had a 'Mission Accomplished' banner made, and actually hung it behind him," Ingraham laughed. "That would've actually been fun. I'm actually giving an editorial cartoonist a great idea right now . . . Mission accomplished. It's done.
"Meanwhile we've got 858,000 people signed up!" she exclaimed. "We've turned the entire healthcare system upside down. And we've got 858,000 people signed up."

Author: Melanie Seasons
Summer in London
Ahhhh, the warm weather is here, but for how long?
Last summer in London was probably the best weather I could have ever hoped for. For one, I HAD A TAN. IN ENGLAND.
Two months of 70+ degrees (with one month consistently over 80) reminded me a little bit too much of home. I've missed Michigan summers for five years, but it really affected me in 2013.
I'm crossing my fingers and toes for a repeat and so far, so good. Our windows fly open as soon as I get in the door, the garden is coming along nicely and our first round of BBQ burgers this past weekend were divine.
Getting hitched.
So, somehow in all the craziness of the last couple months Charlie and I got engaged. Even at 31 (which seems a totally respectable age to get engaged in these modern times), it feels really adult. Though I know many successful couples who have, I can't even image what it would be like to take this step in my 20s.
It's been a crazy four-year journey going from being flatmates who ventured into the dangerous territory of rebound flirtation to spending the rest of our lives together; but at the same time, it's been totally effortless. Without getting too cliche, I get to marry my best friend.
We're holding off on too much wedding planning up front. To be honest, there's so much change going on right now, the last thing we need is to worry about what kind of bunting we'll have or whether or not we send out save the date cards. The important bits (style, locations, time of year) we've pretty much sorted, so now it's just a matter of actually getting out there and doing it.
I'm really glad I have a background working in PR though. The event planning experience is totally going to come in handy. Bring on the colour coding, spreadsheets and clipboards.
The veil of social
Recently I wrote a blog post for a news site that has attracted some negative attention. The gist of it is, I wrote a piece on a rhetorical question because there hasn't been any research on the subject. I find the fact that no one *has* done any research curious. Long story short, it blew up into something I didn't anticipate. Debate-wise, I take a lot of the points on board. I might have worded things slightly different in hindsight, but I still stand by the overall point and I'm not going to change it because a small percentage of people took offense.
However, my frustration with it all actually stems from the fact that people, thinly veiled by eight time zones, a different culture and an axe to grind, are not interesting in having a conversation or debate. If you don't agree, absolutely fine, but let's figure out each others' motivations first before going in for the attack.
Frivolous fun
We're not boring, we're domestic.
It's shocking how quickly you get back into an old routine. We did 'nearly dry January', which means no alcohol apart from my birthday weekend. We were climbing the walls, but sleeping the night all the way through, having the energy for the gym and losing all the Christmas weight made it ever so slightly easier.
This first week in February made a harmonious January feel like a distant memory. Body pump Monday, lovely dinner with Jaz on Tuesday, theatre on Wednesday (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was pure imagination. Loved it.), and working till 8 on Thursday and sadly, Friday.
Our weekends have become painfully normal. Not in a bad way, we've just become terribly domestic. Homebase, the big Sainsbury's on Finchley Road, Yoga on Sunday and hopefully today a trip down to the Black Lion (our local gorgeous if not slightly overpriced pub).
Though we still manage to retain a couple 'cool' activities that don't scream of responsibility. We've been prepping tunes for next weekend's party in Oxford. I may even have the guts to play a graveyard set. We'll see though.
Oh, and I found tater tots in London. Bacon-wrapped, cheese covered tater tots. Hurts so good.
There's more to London than restaurants
Coming from a foodie, it's tough to say, but I fell out of love critiquing restaurants. It's still something I often do, but recently (ok, the past 18 months), I've done it in private. There was something about it that, towards the end of my regular blogging stint, that began to annoy me.
Certain restaurants I went to, I found I didn't really have anything interesting to say. I was priced out of a lot of others. The food blogger community is a bit cliquey. It got old, I got busy, so I stopped.
In the meantime, I've had a really good time not feeling the guilt of not having posted for a week, and then a month and then two… I was enjoying more of what London had to offer. Charlie and I moved into an amazing flat, I worked my way up the corporate ladder a bit more, went to South Africa, finally had my mom visit. I was and am busy just enjoying life.
I do miss blogging though and so I've decided to take it back up, but without guilt and without a 'theme'. Nom nom London isn't just about eating anymore, it's about devouring everything the city has to offer me, even if it's a few mundane pictures of my garden and what Charlie and I did last week.
Here's to hoping I keep it up this time.

Coca-Cola Shakes Things Up With New Sensory Range & Logo For Fanta
Coca-Cola South Pacific has launched a unique new sensory range for Fanta, supported by a fully-integrated campaign and a brand refresh that includes a new logo and updated packaging.
Created for all teens, the first products that have launched in Fanta's new sensory range are 'Jelly Fizz' (Fanta soft drink blended with juicy liquid jelly pieces that has to be shaken 10 times before opening to release the jelly) and 'Sour Tingle'.
The new range is available in stores now in 200ml packs of four, with Jelly Fizz coming in orange and raspberry flavours and Sour Tingle coming in a berry flavour. Jelly Fizz is also available in 200mL single cans across Australia.
For the first time in eight years, there will also be a full global update of the Fanta brand's visual identity through a new logo.
The new product range and brand refresh is being supported by a multimillion dollar integrated marketing campaign, which includes disruptive out-of-home and in-store advertising, social, digital, video, mobile, PR, influencer engagement, partnerships, sampling, and experiential activations.
The campaign puts Aussie teens at the centre of it, encouraging them to create content and then celebrate their creativity.

Fanta's brand manager, Josh Gonski, said that while disruptive innovation and fun has always been at the core of the brand, the new products are completely different to other drinks on the market.
"Teens know Fanta better than anyone, so we wanted to shake things up and put teens at the heart of the campaign by handing the brand over to them," he said.

A case from Chicago
The condominium association for the building at 5415 N. Sheridan Road in Chicago, is suing resident Sandra L. Gold for failure to cooperate with efforts to get rid of her unit's bed bugs.
Park Tower Condominium Association, Inc., claims Ms. Gold's condo "is infested with more than 500 bed bugs," according to Chicago Real Estate Daily:
Ms. Gold has "failed and refused" to cooperate with efforts to exterminate the bugs, creating a broader pest problem throughout the building and obstructing the health and safety of other residents, the condo board alleges in a complaint filed last week in Cook County Circuit Court.
The association argues that Ms. Gold would not take the "necessary" steps to exterminate her bedbug problem: exposing all baseboards, stripping mattresses of box springs and linens, and emptying all closets, dressers and drawers.
Ms. Gold declined to comment, referring an inquiry to her lawyer, Ralph Schindler. Mr. Schindler said Ms. Gold has just returned home from a month in a nursing home while recovering from an injury.
"This is something we hopefully can resolve without doing much in court," Mr. Schindler said.
In a condominium or cooperative building, as in any multi-unit building, eliminating bed bugs can be a tricky matter: everyone must be on board and cooperate with treatment and prevention strategies.
Some resources for New York City
These issues come up everywhere, and we've heard many stories in New York City in particular about people dealing with bed bugs in condos and coops. I am posting some resources below which may be of interest to readers from New York (and possibly elsewhere).
Note: I'd also like to post resources for Chicago and other areas; If you know of any specifically on bed bugs in condos and coops, please leave a comment below or send me an email. Thanks!
Keep in mind I am not a lawyer and none of this constitutes legal advice. Information or advice in the articles linked to, as always, may be incorrect or outdated.
BrickUnderground's 2009 story on bed bugs in condos and coops led us to "Dealing With Bedbugs" (PDF) by Richard Siegler and Eva Talel (New York Law Journal, 2008).
Habitat Magazine (a magazine for New York City coop and condo board members and property managers) has lots of useful resources on bed bugs in these types of properties, including the following:
Bed Bugs (2009: Advice in the "Mr. Manager" column on how to deal with bed bugs in a condo or coop building.)
Bed bugs and boards (2006: There are a few interesting paragraphs about Warranty of Habitability as applied to coops.) Elizabeth Jensen writes on Habitat:
There's legal controversy over whether boards should notify all owners, says Timothy Wenk, a lawyer at Shafer Glazer who specializes in bedbug litigation. "There is a stigma attached to bedbug infestation, even though it is not related to cleanliness," he notes. Nonetheless, he advises clients to notify other apartment owners when an infestation is found. "These little beasts are known to travel apartment to apartment," he says, and failing to warn neighbors to be on the lookout could lead to lawsuits over the damages and unnecessary hardship caused if the bugs do spread.
Wenk believes the implied warranty of habitability under Real Property Law, Section 235-b, gives co-op boards, but not condos, "a duty to eradicate the bedbug infestation" in the same way a landlord must. As such, he says, co-ops are probably responsible for the extermination costs and also have a duty to evict an owner who doesn't "follow instructions and coordinate with efforts to eradicate the bugs."
Finally, a Habitat feature from 2009 about how one large NYC coop dealt with bed bugs, legally, treatment-wise, etc.

You don't have to be a blog copywriter or expert to know that blogging has become big business. The Internet is currently awash with ramblings about what people have done, what they've had to eat and the latest band they've seen. But blogging also has a more serious side: it's a form of marketing that businesses are beginning to recognise as an integral part of their online campaigns and many business use a professional blog copywriter to boost their performance.
Keep your blog article writing interesting!
The essential essence of a blog is that it has to be interesting. The style is usually much more fluid and resembles a spoken conversation rather than a crafted article, but the purpose remains the same – getting a message across. A blog copywriter can ensure your blog appeals to a much wider audience and is more likely to draw in the casual reader, widening appeal and consequently widening your potential marketplace. It also enables your SEO copywriter to add his or her own experiences or impart expert knowledge that would otherwise be difficult to convey in a normal, SEO based article.
Blog content writing can have a huge impact
To appreciate how much impact blogging has had on the Internet, you only have to visit any social networking site and wander casually through the pages of blogs on every subject imaginable. A blog can act as a shop window for a new idea or product or to reinforce the credibility of the writer as an expert in their field. It also allows readers to comment immediately on the blog article writing and thus begin an exchange of ideas that could ultimately be good for your business.
All hail the blog copywriter
The power of the blog should not be underestimated. Its importance as a means of communicating new ideas and concepts makes blogging a perfect forum for promotion, particularly amongst a younger audience. Interesting and entertaining blog article writing can open up a virtual world of possibilities and can be an important part of your marketing campaign. Keep the tone loose, interesting and conversational (without being too 'salesy') and you initiate a dialogue with an audience you would have never reached through more conventional methods.

A One-Handed Bicycle Jump to the Moon That Went Horribly Wrong
One-Handed life on a bicycle. From childhood to adulthood it has been quite the ride. For me the freedom and joy of bicycling is a huge long standing part of my life. But the one-handed thing and the bicycle thing together can be a recipe for grandeur and disaster. Riding with one hand is sometimes challenging, often dangerous, and certainly the stuff of stories. In my sixth blog of my "40 Blogs in 40 Days of my first 40 Podcasts" campaign I share the story of my One Hand Speaks Storytelling Podcast Episode OHS021. This is a funny story with a painful overtone. It is about when I was a child taking a huge bicycle jump and my artificial arm broke apart in mid flight.
Growing in South Bend, Indiana I played a lot of organized baseball and I rode my bicycle like there was no tomorrow. For many years I rode by BMX bike to all my games. In fact, I was always riding my bike. That is how we got around. That was my first set of wheels. My first feeling of freedom. That was when my life really started at expand. We rode our bikes so much on a daily basis it felt at times like we rode around the world. I love bicycling. In fact, I pretty much grew up on a bicycle. I rode a bicycle all through college. When I transferred from Indiana University to the University of Washington in the city of Seattle, my love of bicycling came with me. Living in Seattle in the early 1990s was a great time to be there for so many reasons. The music scene, the lifestyle and culture, and also for bicycling and bicycle commuting. I worked in the Pike Place Market, I rode my bicycle everyday, and I went to a lot of concerts. It was in Seattle I acquired my deep appreciation for the bicycling lifestyle. I became a devoted bicycle commuter.
Up to that point I really did not own a car. My uncle gave me one for a short time. But the engine blew-up on a rode trip to Portland, Oregon and I had a decision to make. I decided on the magic of two wheels. I did five solid years of commuting all year around in Seattle, Washington. I then rode my bicycle from Seattle to my hometown of South Bend, Indiana. After returning to Seattle for six months I moved to Boise, Idaho where I did another five years with no car as a devoted bicycle commuter. At that time not owing a car in Boise was a bit misunderstood and the winters were much more extreme. I even started a small grass-roots bicycling publication called "Spoke"N"Word" after my room mate was hit by a car on his bicycle.
I guess what I am really trying to share with you is how much I love bicycling. I basically did not own a car until I was 33 years old. I spend most of my life on a bicycle. One day my parents came home with bicycles for my brothers and me as gifts. I got on a bicycle when I was a kid and I never got off. It truly shaped the first half of my life. I have so many grand memories of that feeling of freedom I had with my bicycle when I was a child. Though many of those memories were grand they were not always on the positive side of life. I have come close to dying a number of times as a bicycle commuter and have taken many bad falls as a child and an adult. Once I broke my collar bone in two places from hitting the ground so hard crashing my bicycle as an adult.
Doing the bicycle thing with one hand does have it's quarks to say the least. Especially with a prosthetic arm. Most of the time as an adult I do not wear a prosthetic arm. However, when I ride my bicycle I do. It "evens me out" when holding the handlebars and steering. As I have mentioned it has been the cause of many bad falls as an adult. But it also caused a lot of issues for me as a child. I was always trying to see how far I could push myself in my one-handed body. I guess I did not always think about the limits of my prosthetic arm. And sometimes the "limits' of my prosthetic arm let me know when I pushed too hard.
Like the other kids from our neighborhood we all spent a lot of time riding our bikes. BMX racing and bikes became very popular. And as we all started to get our own bikes we started racing and building ramps and doing jumps. We would ride around outside the city limits looking for cool places to ride, take jumps, and build ramps. Some of us were very good at big air jumps and others of us were not. I was in the not-so-good category. It certainly was not due to any lack of desire or courage on my part. Some of it was my prosthetic arm and it's limitations. But I did not let it stop me.
Behind Wendy's fast food restaurant was a legendary natural dirt jump. Kids from all around would gather to dazzle and be dazzled by the big air skills some would display. Then one day we added an extension to this already huge jump. When I saw it I thought to myself, "with enough speed I am sure I could break the gravitational pull of the earth and land on the moon." Maybe not the best thought to have at that time. But it was the thought I thought, and the next thing I know I am looking for the highest nearest point. When I got to the top of the hill at the end of the street I stopped and turned around to face the path to the jump. I took a deep breath, "dropped-in," and pedaled as fast and as hard as I could toward the jump and the excited onlookers. I hit the jump at top speed. At the end of the ramp I pulled up as hard as I could. I knew I was pushing my own limits by taking this jump at this speed. But I did not think I would be pushing the limits of my prosthetic arm. As soon as I left the jump and was flying to the moon my prosthetic arm broke apart in the air. All I could think was, "this landing is going to suck!"

Seeing the need for a furniture store with strong customer service, Ver Hage's Furniture Mart was founded by brothers Alan and Wayne in 1974. The initial store was 4,800 square feet and Alan was the only full time employee serving as furniture buyer, salesman and delivery person.
Due to rapid growth and a need for more room, in 1976 the showroom was doubled to 9,600 square feet and Wayne joined in a full time capacity. Other full & part time staff were added through the years. After several expansions the current showroom is currently 15,500 square feet plus a warehouse facility of 5,200 square feet.

EPRINT: Permission BP Hope Magazine
Enjoy the gift of peace and health through careful planning ahead, avoiding triggers, and monitoring your mood before, during, and after this year's holiday season.
By Melvin G. McInnis, MD
With the holidays approaching, there is a childlike anticipation of good times: the parties, the jingle in the malls, the shopping, the food, and—my favorite—snow. But challenges abound. Routines are out the window. Sleep is disturbed. Alcohol flows. The treats brought into the office are just so tempting … Living with bipolar during the holidays is often not easy.
What is it about the holidays that makes this such a difficult time?
There are two main challenges I see my patients struggling with around this time of year: One is impulsivity—the tendency to do things on the spur of the moment, often with limited regard for consequences; even when manic or depressive syndrome is not present, sometimes sub-syndromal or mild symptoms persist and drive actions. The second is reactivity—the tendency to respond with extreme intensity to external stimuli; good things take one "over the top" and bad things do the polar opposite.
What can I do to stay well yet still have some fun?
First and foremost: prioritize your health. Avoid changing your medications without talking to your health-care provider, and contact him or her right away if you feel a change in mood coming on.
Plan, prioritize, and avoid impulsive activity (this includes spending!). If there are things that can be done in advance, do them. Gifts? Create a shopping list and a budget and stick to it—don't procrastinate and then panic and overspend at the last minute. A whole new outfit? Fine if you can afford it—but even an inexpensive new scarf, tie, or earrings may be enough of a treat to satisfy that "something new" urge.
Can you recommend some survival strategies?
Plan for minimizing a reactive response by using the following tips:
Plan for fun events. Look your best—it feels good! Think carefully about what you actually prefer to do, and whose company you truly desire. Identify the "required" duties and plan to seek common ground in the conversations, avoiding controversial topics that invariably lead to arguments. Compliment your host and family. Ask about the kids. Smile.
Don't overdo it. Carve out personal time for yourself. If you need a break, say so: "I really need an hour or so on my own to recharge." Have a rational reason handy for declining or leaving an event early; discuss your strategy for extricating yourself, if needed, with a trusted family member.
Have a "Go To" list of activities that relax you, such as movies, music, or a book. Find a new coffee shop in another neighborhood. It is often restful to sit and relax in a calm, neutral environment after a stimulating activity.
Tell your family and friends how much they mean to you. Find a new board game to play with a willing child, and play it over and over (and again) with him or her. You are making memories!
Once the holidays are over, now what?
After the holidays, many feel a sense of letdown. Credit card statements start appearing, the grim reality of winter sets in, life feels flat and stale, somehow a few extra pounds have found their way to your bathroom scale … It can be hard to know if one is headed for a full-blown depressive episode or just a few difficult days.
Develop a post-holiday strategy, and talk it through with a close friend or family member. Do they think you are getting depressed? Invite them to go with you to your health-care provider.
It is a good idea to have an appointment scheduled for soon after the holidays, simply to review how you are doing, identify needs for the current month and year, and set some new goals. If you did overdo it, forgive yourself and take the appropriate steps to move forward.

The European Banking Union, with its own EU supervisory institutions such as the ECB, has had us forget that banking law mainly consists of transactions with and between clients. It is to a large extent (European) contract law. This volume investigates how the post-crisis supervisory regime of the EU and the Eurozone impacts on bank managers' duties and on market transactions: in their relationship to the large range of stakeholders, including the public as such, in current lending and investment transactions, in the phase of recovery and resolution (with bail-ins triggering changes of contractual rights), but also in adjudication, namely in banking related ADR schemes. It concludes with a look at the ongoing endeavour to extend the banking union to a capital market and more generally a financial union.
