Diorskin Star is the star of every girl's makeup bag… ⭐
This foundation is without a doubt a top contender for the best that I've tried. Okay, I know I say it a lot but it's true. I love it. Essentially, Diorskin Star is a highlighter and foundation in one.
Inspired by the professional illuminating techniques and expertise of its makeup artists, Dior invents Diorskin Star, its 1st brightening foundation: a weightless fluid capable of instantly and lastingly recreating the spectacular and perfecting light of Dior studios.
The packaging is beautiful. It comes in a standard Dior glass bottle with a classic black lid. There's also a standard little pump presser to get the liquid foundation out. I've got to say though that Dior Star's pump is better than some that I've used.
Although Diorskin also have a concealer (pictured above) in the range Star too, you can be sure that the foundation itself has a medium-full coverage depending on how many times you apply. Overall, the coverage is just how I like it and the result is a dewy finish which is light-reflective when taking selfies.
The flawless second skin that it gives you is enough to make even the most self-esteem lacking person the confidence to go out and enjoy their day. Apparently, the foundation was made with the "studio lights" in mind. It's supposed to give you that dewy glow that you'd get it if you were on a photoshoot, you pretty model, you! 😉
The shade range is pretty diverse as well, so you're bound to find one if you mix two or purchase the one (if you're lucky).
The scent of Diorskin Star reminds me of perfume but I don't find it strong at all. (I'm also not sure why we bloggers discuss the smell of something which we put on our face for makeup but there you go).
It's approximately £33 but it's £33 well spent if you ask me. It lasts an extremely long time too as a little goes a long way.

I'm not often a fan of conspiracy theories, except for entertainment value. This one is interesting because it combines international intrigue, the elections, and our world of notoriously poor email security.
The conspiracy arises from foreigners trying to influence the United States election. They spy on unprotected emails and leak the contents to influence US public opinion. This isn't limited to attacks on the Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton. Some suggest that Fox News and the Trump campaign have also been attacked this way.
We could be blocking this threat, except that pressure groups within the government want to leave as much information unprotected as possible, notably law enforcement and intelligence agencies. I think we face a greater threat from foreign exploitation of our unprotected emails than we face from impeded investigations or even a few terrorist bombs.

Before 1840, indoor plumbing was nonexistent. Folks used chamber pots. Night time soil carters carried off the waste. Foul odors and disease, together with typhoid and cholera were common. Within the mid 1800's, piped water became obtainable by subscription, and water closets (a small room with a toilet) flushed into the harbor. Any such entry lock makes it almost impossible for thieves to get right into a coach, and all of at this time's costly coaches have them.

Our Commitment to You
We live in an information based economy. Your bank, your health plan, your employer, your TV cable company, your supermarket, and even your coffee shop collect and store information about you on the Internet. Is all that information about you on the Internet safe? If you did a poll, you would find most Americans believe that any information on the Internet about you is available to anyone willing to search for it.
Keeping your information safe shouldn't even be a question. MeYou Health believes that any information you give us should stay safe and away from prying eyes. As you read this Privacy Policy, you will quickly see that it is our commitment to you. Our policies tell you what you can expect from us. These policies describe how we collect, use, and protect your information.
A Quick Word about Health Care Privacy: To start, there are lots of health care privacy laws and rules. If we put all of the federal and state privacy laws and rules together in a pile, they would reach from the floor to the ceiling. In the real world, hospitals, doctors, nurses and patients label all health care privacy rules under the general heading of HIPAA. HIPAA is shorthand for a 1996 federal law called the "Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act."
For the sake of simplicity, when we say that your information is "protected by HIPAA," we mean that your information can not be disclosed to anyone else without your permission. When we say that your information is "not protected by HIPAA," we mean that it can be disclosed to others.
Why do we collect information about you? The answer is very simple. MeYou Health uses your information in order to offer you valuable tools to improve your health.
If you have any questions about our Privacy Policy, our Terms of Use, or about MeYou Health, or if you just want to tell us what you think about our website, please write us at MeYou Health, 27-43 Wormwood Street, Suite 420, Boston, MA 02210, Attn: Support, or simply email us at email@example.com. We promise that we will answer you.
What Information Do We Collect?
Information You Post on Our Website
MeYou Health collects personal health information that you choose to give us through our website. This point is worth repeating. It is always your choice. You choose what information to give us. This includes information you give us by answering questionnaires, responding to surveys, and posting health information on your public profile through the MeYou Health applications and services.
Public Forums: MeYou Health also offers public forums. We collect information posted on our public forums. This may include health management goals, articles, recipes, health information about yourself, and other personal information you choose to share with others on these public forums.
A Consideration: Public forums are a great way to share information with others and to get new ideas and support for your goals. We encourage you to use our forums – they are a valuable tool.
However, any information you choose to share on the public forums is available to everyone – from friends, to relatives, to future employers, to your mail carrier. Before you post anything to a public forum, ask yourself, "Do I want my grandmother or my worst enemy to see this?" If the answer is "no," don't post it to the public forums.
If you don't want everyone to see your post, some of our products allow you to choose who can see your post by adjusting your privacy settings. But remember: even when you only let a few friends see your posts, your friends can share your posts with other friends.
Before you post anything on our public forums or on any social network site, ask yourself:
- Do I want everyone to see my post or only certain people?
- Would I want my post to appear on the front page of my local newspaper?
Again, if the answer is "no," don't post it.
MeYou Health wants you to safely manage how your information is shared with others on our website. We strongly urge you to review your privacy settings.
Information You Allow Your Health Plan or Health Provider to Send Us
MeYou Health may ask you for your permission to receive information about you from your health plan or health care provider. In general, this would include your subscriber number, your patient number, your contact information, and information about your eligibility for benefits. In these instances, we would ask you to sign a HIPAA authorization form – very similar to the HIPAA authorization forms you sign when you go to the doctor or a hospital. This authorization form would allow your health plan or health care provider to give us information about you.
Once your health plan or health care provider gives us this information, it is no longer protected by HIPAA. However, there are other laws that protect the privacy of your personal information, and MeYou Health complies with these laws.
Why do we want this information? Again, MeYou Health uses your information to offer you valuable tools – to improve your health, to help you get the kind of benefits from your health plan that you really need, and to help you become a knowledgeable consumer of the health care system.
Cookies and Other Information
Sometimes, MeYou Health uses cookies. What is a cookie? A cookie is a small text file that a website sends to your computer. Why do we use cookies? Cookies help us quickly identify you whenever you go to our website. Cookies also help your computer view and use websites. If you "block" our cookies, the MeYou Health website may not work properly for you.
We also collect IP addresses and information about the type of computer and browser you are using. What is an IP address? Every device connected to the Internet (like your computer or smart phone) has a unique number known as an Internet Protocol (IP) address. Why do we collect your IP address? This information helps us recognize your computer when you visit our website. More importantly, whenever you click on a button on the MeYou Health website, your IP address tells the Internet to send our response to your computer and not to your neighbor's.
Why do we collect information about your computer? Knowing what kind of computer you have (e.g., a Mac versus a PC) and what kind of software you are using (e.g., Safari versus Internet Explorer) lets us know the best ways to communicate with your computer.
How We Use Personal Information
Personal Health Applications
We use your information to tell you about Personal Health Applications such as the Daily Challenge. For example, we may offer some users information about how to quit smoking, what works and what doesn't work. We may offer other users information about healthy diets and weight loss. In many instances, we will let you know if your health care plan or health care provider offers special programs to help you achieve your important health care goals.
Improving Our Services
We also may put your information together with information about other users of MeYou Health. Why do we combine (aggregate) user information? Aggregating user information helps us understand what our users like and don't like about our website. When we merge your information with the information about others on our website, we remove any way of identifying you - that is, we de-identify the information.
On occasion, we use sub-contractors. Why do we use sub-contractors? In some instances, sub-contractors help us operate more efficiently than we could operate alone. Our sub-contractors are bound by this Privacy Policy. In addition, we will only give our sub-contractors the information they need to perform a particular task. We don't give sub-contractors blanket access to your information.
Disclosures Required by Law
Although it happens more on TV than in real life, in the very unlikely event that a court order requires us to disclose information about you, we will comply with that court order. However, unless prohibited by the court, MeYou Health will try to send you advance notice before turning over any information about you.
In a similarly unlikely scenario, MeYou Health can disclose information about you to the proper authorities if we reasonably believe there is an imminent physical threat to you or others, to defend or assert legal rights, or in response to an immediate public health risk.
Security of Our Website
MeYou Health is committed to keeping your information safe – away from prying eyes. MeYou Health uses administrative, physical, and technical security technologies and internal controls to protect your information from unauthorized access, use, and disclosure (i.e., breach).
As an additional security protection, we do not give our personnel free access to your information protected by HIPAA. Our personnel can only access your information protected by HIPAA when resolving technical issues and other system, administrative, or security issues.
In the very unlikely event of a breach, your health plan, your healthcare provider, or MeYou Health will notify you. Federal and state law describes the process for addressing an unauthorized disclosure of information. MeYou Health is committed to this process.
Our Commitment to Children's Privacy
Protecting the privacy of children is very important to us. The Children's Online Privacy and Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA) limits the collection of personal information about children and defines a "Child" as anyone under the age of 13. We strictly adhere to COPPA.
For that reason, if we know an individual is under the age of 13 we will not collect or store that individual's information. No part of our website is designed to attract anyone under 13. We don't use language or symbols like cute cartoon characters to attract children to our website. We also do not ask or allow any person under the age of 18 to "authorize" their health plan to send us Protected Health Information.
How to Close Your Account
Hopefully you won't close your MeYou Health account, but if you do, we will delete your user name and personal information from our systems. It is not possible for us to delete all of the information that we have collected from you (for example, your posts to our public forums). However, we will label any information that remains in our systems about you as "anonymous" and remove any way of identifying you.
If you are no longer eligible to participate in MeYou Health through your health plan (for example, due to loss of employment), we will offer you the opportunity to maintain your account on an individual basis or to close your account.
If you wish to close your account, please send us a request at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Termination of Your Account
MeYou Health has the right to decide to close your account. If we decide to close your account, we will delete your information following the policies spelled out in section 6 of this Privacy Policy.
Contact Information
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about this Privacy Policy or about our services, please contact MeYou Health Customer Support at firstname.lastname@example.com or at the address below:
MeYou Health, 27-43 Wormwood Street, Suite 420, Boston, MA 02210, Attn: Support
Updates and the Effective Date of this Privacy Policy
From time to time, MeYou Health may change this Privacy Policy. Most of time, we expect the changes to be very minor. We will notify you 30 days prior to any material change unless immediate changes are necessary to protect your information. If we make material changes to how we use information you have already given us, we will seek your consent before applying the changes to you. The Privacy Policy on our website at the time of use is the Privacy Policy that will govern our relationship.
The effective date of this Privacy Policy is March 18, 2015.
Scope of this Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected through our website and information you authorize others, such as your health plan, to send to us. It does not apply to information collected offline. Please be aware that this Privacy Policy also does not apply to:
- Health plans or healthcare providers holding health information about you,
- Outside websites or other sources of information from which you send personal information to MeYou Health,
- Websites or other entities to which you send your personal information, and
- Websites/hyperlinks that other users post on the public forums of the MeYou Health website.
Before you choose to send your personal information to a website outside of MeYou Health, you should carefully review their privacy policies and terms of use. This Privacy Policy does not apply to your health information once you share it with any third party or submit it to any non-MeYou Health website, person, or entity.
The terms below have the following meanings when used in this Privacy Policy.
"Health information" means health or medical information about you, which may include medical records, prescription drug records, claims data, or other health or medical information from your health plan or health care provide, as well as symptom diaries or other health-related information you create.
"MeYou Health," "we," "us," or "our" refers to MeYou Health, LLC.
"MeYou Health website" or "website" means www.meyouhealth.com and any website or software platform on which MeYou Health offers a product or service, such as Daily Challenge.
"Personal Health Application" means a website or software that provides information about diagnoses, care management, treatment, or general or specific information about disease, injury, or conditions.
"Protected Health Information" means individually identifiable health information from a covered entity that is transmitted by electronic media, maintained in electronic media, or transmitted or maintained in any other form or medium, with certain exceptions. The term "Protected Health Information" has the same meaning as the term is defined in Title 45, part 160.103 of the Code of Federal Regulations.
"Required by law" means required directly by applicable law or required by subpoena, court order, or other legal process.
"You" means an individual who creates a MeYou Health account or otherwise accesses our website.

Although this may be a poem, it was also straight from my journal this morning. I want to encourage you to make time for your spiritual self to emerge by journaling your heart and prayers on your own journal pages. I have been feeling dry spiritually the past week…so for me this writing reflects a bit intimacy with God that has been lacking.
I will include it in my Journaling Series- as it a true reflection of my journaling journey. I pray it sparks in you the courage (if you need it) to be raw and real in your spiritual journey, whatever you believe and whatever your heart towards God at this moment.
If these words inspire, encourage or spark a response in you I'd love if you share your thoughts right here in the comments- but even more importantly, in your own journal- as you so feel led.
As always, thanks for joining me for this journey. Here is this morning's offering.

Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV SUVs Comes with Free Home Charger for UK Customers
If you live in the United Kingdom and buy one of the new Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV plug-in hybrid SUVs, you'll also get a free home charger kit to go with it.
Those interested will have to act quickly; this isn't a permanent bonus but rather a limited offer for customers that register between October 14 and December 28 of this year. Should they choose to do so, they will receive a 3.6 kWh Chargemaster Homecharge unit that will be installed free of charge at their home before January 31, 2017.
What's the Difference? Mitsubishi Mirage vs Mitsubishi Mirage G4
Chargemaster is Mitsubishi's official charging partner in the UK and its home charge kits come with a three-year warranty. The benefit, of course, is charging time: with the Chargemaster system, the Outlander PHEV batteries can be charged 60% faster than with a 13A socket. It's supposedly safer, too.
That will allow customers to go home, plug in their Outlander PHEV, and head back out with a fully charged battery in almost half the time they required before. The benefit is probably small whenever charging the car overnight, but for any necessary charging in between when time is of the essence, customers are sure to benefit.
Unfortunately, it seems that as always, the Europeans get all the good stuff—like the Triton L200 pickup truck—while Americans are left hanging. Then again, the Outlander PHEV isn't yet available in the United States. Perhaps when it is, and it will be soon, the charging offer will come our way as well.

The Flame
The Flame illuminates paths and provides protection from things lurking in the darkness. It provides warmth. It allows humans to cook and create. The flame can also bring pain, death and destruction.
Fire is one of the four classical elements. It is a part of most ancient rituals. The ancient Greeks believed it was given to humanity by Prometheus.
This sculpture of The Flame stands about 19″ tall. It can be viewed from either side.

While asylum applications fell, Germany continues to grapple with the impact of the large numbers of asylum seekers and other migrants who arrived between 2015 and 2017. Attacks on asylum-seeker accommodation and refugees and asylum-seekers continued, but at a lower rate than previous years. Germany's federal parliament has approved measures that raise concerns about privacy rights and free expression online, including a law requiring social media companies to take down poorly defined "illegal content" or face large fines. New powers allow electronic tagging and movement restrictions for people deemed a risk to national security, but who have not yet committed any crime.

David Walliams storytelling magic for children with brain injury
David Walliams brought smiles to the faces of youngsters from The Children's Trust this afternoon (9 August 16), when he treated children with brain injury to a story and private tea party at one of London's most prestigious venues, Claridge's. Seven children received VIP treatment at Claridge's, where a magical afternoon tea with sandwiches, chocolate cake and ice cream was laid out and David Walliams read them an extract from his book The World's Worst Children. David said: "It was a lovely afternoon. The Children's Trust is an inspiring place and it was a pleasure to be able to do something special for the children. Their bravery and determination humbles me greatly." 12-year-old Rachel from County Durham, is having intensive rehabilitation at The Children's Trust following a brain tumour: "I am one of David's biggest fans, and I was so excited to meet him. I have most of his books and I have read them too many times to mention. I have lent them to my friends, and they have gone crazy for them too. It was funny when he said to Thomas I have a book, and you could be in it, it's called The World's Worst Children. He makes me laugh loads. We were telling him how to play Pokemon Go." Two-year-old Archie, who is also having brain injury rehabilitation at The Children's Trust, was there with his family. He absolutely loves stories and being read to, and who didn't stop smiling the whole afternoon.

Introducing the Enterprise Communication Factory™
The Enterprise Communication Factory encompasses the full range of capabilities required for automated customer communications in a modern business context.
It includes the tools to develop new communications, enhance legacy applications, and automate communication processing.
It integrates with your infrastructure and enterprise systems to support the reporting, status and intervention options you need to react quickly and respond to your customers effectively.
Why we need it
To succeed in a competitive marketplace where customers enjoy many options, companies must maintain an edge in servicing customers to retain their business and attract new customers. Winning new customers is a gamble that all companies take, and it costs a lot to attract them. Ensuring the customers you have stay with you is the key to success.
How we got here
Enterprise infrastructure for processing and distributing customer communications was not created overnight. Systems that generate communications have been built over decades, business lines have multiplied, and legacy applications accumulated, while the staff that created them have moved on or retired. Corporate business structures are siloed, with customer communications traversing core systems, print, mail rooms and customer service operations. IT resources are in short supply and focused on critical projects and lack the tools required to execute change. So, then, it is understandable that companies continue to struggle to unlock the value of their customer communications.
A new vision for customer communications
To serve today's consumer requires an approach that truly harnesses the value of customer communication. We call it the Enterprise Communication Factory™. With an Enterprise Communication Factory customer communications processes generate value, helping improve customer engagement and retention:
- Customer service can offer more accurate communication status
- Marketing can add messages helping customers make more informed decisions
- Data can be extracted and fed to data marts or clearinghouses for new value added services
- Call centers can be optimally staffed to match communication delivery targets
- Customers can receive communications through their preferred channel
- Risk of breaches exposing personally identifiable information is virtually eliminated
These capabilities are all encompassed within the Enterprise Communication Factory™. Taking action is easier than you might think. Implementations are fast, affordable, and provide a powerful return on investment.

At the end of the day, I look forward to my knitting time. It's a time to relax, slow down, and let the act of knitting help clear my mind of the day's events.
This project is simple with just enough going on to keep me paying attention. I started it on our family vacation last week, and it was the perfect travel companion. After the first repeat or two, I didn't need to look at the pattern all the time, which made it great to work on by the pool, in the room at night, and on the airplane. Now I'm playing an intense game of yarn chicken as I try to use up as much of this beautiful yarn as possible.
What would you do if you found out a treasured piece of artwork had potentially been stolen during World War I? What would you do if faced with serving German soldiers and being seen as a traitor was your only chance at being reunited with your husband? It's been a while since I've read any sort of historical fiction, and I'm finding this version to be very good. It's been thought provoking and entertaining all at once, the perfect kind of reading for me right now!

Renfrewshire | Town | ★★
|[Anchor Mill, Paisley]
Paisley's a curious old place. With its history as a religious centre stretching back to the founding of Paisley Abbey in 1163, the industrial revolution of the late 18th century propelled the town to new heights as a prosperous weaving settlement and purveyor of the famous Paisley Pattern. Good times weren't to last: today it's still (probably) Scotland's largest town but the local economy appears to have seen better days. A lot of grand buildings provide clues to its former status, and in 2017 the town just missed out on being crowned UK City of Culture 2021. There are still several worthwhile attractions dotted around, and it's just a matter of knowing where to go. The museum at the west end of the High Street is the best place to start; after that, your options may be dictated by the day of the week you happen to be visiting on.

Art is not about the audience anymore but about the art world that successfully has overtaken art itself. Art doesn't need to address society with its actual problems since self referencing and recasting existing cultural comments and interpretations has become the norm. Art suffers globalization even more than any other aspect of contemporary society and public life. Contemporary art is fully globalized and even the different representation of a particular local context is globally demanded.
Art or rather, the art world has lost its influence on society and its avantgarde status.
On the other hand technology is so rapidly developing and new media have so much changed and influenced society that even though the art world itself long resisted these processes it is eventually undergoing a technological transformation imposed as a social necessity. The role of social media in channeling an interest in art already surpases that of traditional mass media and of professional magazines. Artists ranking web platforms take over the job of art critics and even that of curators by showing to the audience directly the 'score'of an artist.
All this is not a surprise since the art world itself decided this hierarchical model of ranking artists as a meta form of evaluation and organization of artists'careers as a way of dealing with the growing number of artists and the enormous amount of art production. This process of automatization of curatorial work mirrors the global tendency of optimization of office work that has already taken place in the fields of corporate management and finance resulting in rapid shrinking of the wannabe middle class office proletariat.
The Ranking Project is an app for smart phones and tablets that shows in front of the gallery (and also in front of big poster or billboard promoting show) the rating of the participating artists through big colorful spheres. The sizes of the spheres represent the rank of each artist. These spheres are the aura of the artist, sized not by the hermetic specialist knowledge of a single curator or critic, but by a machine algorithm calculating their gross value in the economy of attention by factoring participations in biennials and exhibitions.

Education Team Building –
How to Promote Teamwork Within an Organisation
It's easy to assign people to a particular team, but how do you actually get those people to operate as a team that works towards a common goal? Volumes could be written on this subject simply because each team creates its own unique dynamics. Channelling those dynamics in a way that leads to success in meeting goals is a challenge best met through team development activities.
How do you build an effective team? It begins by building team member participation in the vision of the company which is then moulded into team participation. A team member must feel committed, empowered and able to use a particular expertise in a way that promotes team goals.
Promoting teamwork within an organisation requires that certain critical issues be addressed first in order to give members the information and desire to commit to the team. One of the biggest problems organisations experience with teams is the inability of team members to understand how the success of the team will play an important role in the success of the company.
Teamwork is promoted by developing the following.
* Clear understanding of the mission of the company
* Mutual trust between team members
* Open communication between team members
* Open communication between team and organisational management
* Development of creative thinking skills
*Development of coordinated action plan with common goals
* Development of mutually acceptable team conflict resolution practices
For a team to be effective, it must be empowered to achieve its goals. One of the most common mistakes a company makes is creating a team which is discouraged from presenting new ideas or approaches to achieve goals.

Promoting Teamwork Through Dialogue
In essence, teamwork is developed through effective dialogue. Open dialogue is how teams learn about the company mission, resolve conflict, communicate within the organisation, and communicate with customers. Learning how to dialogue in a way that promotes the vision of the company is critical. Looking at it from another angle, if managers and staff are unable to communicate in a productive manner, it will be almost impossible to build a team.
Teams within an organisation can take several forms and dialogue is important to them all. Teams can be department teams, special project teams, or the organisation as a whole. It doesn't matter what team you want to develop, promoting teamwork begins with team members learning how to effectively communicate.
One of the main complaints heard within an organisation is, "This company doesn't care what I think." The employee may say, "My manager never listens to me." Another frequently heard statement is the following: "I tried to tell them it wouldn't work." Upon consideration it's easy to see each of these statements addresses lack of good dialogue between members of the organisation.
Many companies choose to add communication skills training to their organisation for this reason. Effective communication transmits reliable information and includes feedback given in a non-threatening manner. It is open dialogue that enables a company to develop the skills and environment needed for successful teamwork.
10 Quick and Easy Team Building Activities
The best teams can benefit from team building exercises; they're a great way of improving communication, morale, motivation, productivity, helping employees to get to know each other better, and learning about one's strengths and weaknesses.
Team building activities can be used by any business, large or small, to promote better teamwork in the workplace, and as most business owners and managers know, great teamwork is one of the key factors associated with a company's success.
There are four main types of team building activities, which includes: Communication activities, problem solving and/or decision making activities, adaptability and/or planning activities, and activities that focus on building trust.
The idea is to perform various activities that are both fun and challenging, and that also have the "side effect" of building teamwork skills that can help improve employee performance and productivity at the office.
In this first installment, we'll take a look at 10 highly effective team building activities designed to improve communication and problem solving skills.
These 10 team building activities will have your company well on its way to building a team of peers that work well together, are productive and have a renewed focus.
Communication and Icebreakers
Two Truths and a Lie
Time Required: 15-30 minutes
Start out by having every team member secretly write down two truths about themselves and one lie on a small piece of paper – Do not reveal to anyone what you wrote down!
Once each person has completed this step, allow 10-15 minutes for open conversation – much like a cocktail party – where everyone quizzes each other on their three questions.
The idea is to convince others that your lie is actually a truth, while on the other hand, you try to guess other people's truths/lies by asking them questions. Don't reveal your truths or lie to anyone – even if the majority of the office already has it figured out!
After the conversational period, gather in a circle and one by one repeat each one of your three statements and have the group vote on which one they think is the lie. You can play this game competitively and award points for each lie you guess or for stumping other players on your own lie.
This game helps to encourage better communication in the office, as well as it lets you get to know your coworkers better.
Life Highlights Game
Time Required: 30 minutes
This is an excellent icebreaker activity that's perfect for small and large groups alike. Begin by asking each participant to close their eyes for one minute and consider the best moments of their lives.
This can include moments they've had alone, they've shared with family or friends; these moments can pertain to professional successes, personal revelations, or exciting life adventures.
After the participants have had a moment to run through highlights of their lives, inform them that their search for highlights is about to be narrowed.
Keeping their eyes closed, ask each participant to take a moment to decide what 30 seconds of their life they would want to relive if they only had thirty seconds left in their life.
The first part of the activity enables participants to reflect back on their lives, while the second part (which we'll discuss in a moment) enables them to get to know their coworkers on a more intimate level.
The second portion of the game is the "review" section. The leader of the activity will ask each and every participant what their 30 seconds entailed and why they chose it, which will allow participants to get a feel for each other's passions, loves, and personalities.
Coin Logo
Time Required: 5-10 minutes
Begin by asking all participants to empty their pockets, purses, and wallets of any coins they may have and place them on the table in front of them. If someone doesn't have any coins or only has very few, others in the room can share their coins with them.
Instruct each person to create their own personal logo using the coins in front of them in just one minute. Other materials they may have on them, such as pens, notebooks, wallets, etc. can also be used in creation of the logo.
If there is a particularly large group, people can be broken up into teams of 3-6 people and instructed to create a logo that represents them as a team or the whole room can gather to use the coins to create a logo for the organization/group/department/etc.
Each solitary participant can explain their logo to the group or if the room was split into groups, the leader can have each group discuss what led to the team logo and what it says about them.
Not only does this activity promote self and mutual awareness, but it also enables participants to get to know each other on a more personal level.
The One Question Ice Breaker Activity
Time Required: 15-20 minutes
This icebreaker not only gets coworkers talking to each other, but it also gets them working with one another. It's quite simple: the leader gets to decide the situation the question will pertain to.
Example situations include babysitting, leading the company, or being married. After pairing participants into teams, the leader will pose this question: If you could ask just one question to discover a person's suitability for (insert topic here), what would your question be?
Say the leader chose to go with a marriage situation. That means each person in a two-person team would come up with one question that would help them discover whether or not their partner was suitable to be married to them.
If the topic was babysitting, each team member would have to come up with just one question whose answer would help them determine whether or not the person was suitable to babysit their child.
This icebreaking activity can also get mixed up by issuing one situation for the entire group or allocating a different situation to each team member or pair to work on.
Depending on the situation chosen, the activity can be very fun, but it can also demonstrate that crucial questions should be developed properly.
Classification Game
Time Required: 10-15 minutes
The classification game can be a quick icebreaker or a more complex activity. For the purposes of this example, we will treat this activity as a quick icebreaker.
Before splitting the room into teams of four, explain the concept of "pigeon-holing someone," which means classifying someone as something or stereotyping someone.
It should be made clear that this type of classification is subjective and unhelpfully judgmental. Instruct the participants to introduce themselves to those in their team and quickly discuss some of their likes, dislikes, etc.
After the introductions, reveal to the teams that it will be their job to discover how they should classify themselves- as a team- into two or three subgroups by using criteria that contains no negative, prejudicial, or discriminatory judgments.
Examples of these subgroups can include night owls and morning people, pineapple pizza lovers and sushi lovers, etc. This activity encourages coworkers to get to know each other better and enables them to collectively consider the nature of all individuals within the team.
Problem Solving
Picture Pieces Game
Time Required: 30 minutes
This problem solving activity requires that the leader choose a well known picture or cartoon that is full of detail. The picture needs to be cut into as many equal squares as there are participants in the activity.
Each participant should be given a piece of the "puzzle" and instructed to create an exact copy of their piece of the puzzle five times bigger than its original size. They are posed with the problem of not knowing why or how their own work affects the larger picture.
The leader can pass out pencils, markers, paper, and rulers in order to make the process simpler and run more smoothly. When all the participants have completed their enlargements, ask them to assemble their pieces into a giant copy of the original picture on a table.
This problem solving activity will teach participants how to work in a team and it demonstrates divisionalized 'departmental' working, which is the understanding that each person working on their own part contributes to an overall group result.
Sneak a Peek Game
Time Required: 10 minutes
This problem solving activity requires little more than a couple of sets of children's building blocks. The instructor will build a small sculpture with some of the building blocks and hide it from the group.
The participants should then be divided into small teams of four. Each team should be given enough building material so that they can duplicate the structure you've already created.
The instructor should then place their sculpture in an area that is an equal distance from all the groups. One member from each team can come up at the same time to look at the sculpture for ten seconds and try to memorize it before returning to their team.
After they return to their teams, they have twenty-five seconds to instruct their teams about how to build an exact replica of the instructor's sculpture.
After one minute of trying to recreate the sculpture, another member from each team can come up for a "sneak a peek" before returning to their team and trying to recreate the sculpture.
The game should be continued in this pattern until one of the team's successfully duplicates the original sculpture. This game will teach participants how to problem solve in a group and communicate effectively.
Time Required: 30 minutes
This problem solving activity requires the wordless, picture book entitled, "Zoom" by Istvan Banyai. This book features 30 sequential pictures that work together to form a narrative.
The book should be fairly easy to find, as it's been published in over 18 countries. The pictures can even be laminated to prolong their usage. Hand out one picture to each participant, making sure a continuous sequence is being used.
Explain to the participants that they can only look at their own pictures and must keep their picture hidden from other participants.
Time should be given for the participants to study their pictures because each picture will contain important information that will help the participants solve the problem of putting them into order.
The ultimate goal is for the group to place the pictures in sequential order without looking at one another's pictures. The participants can talk to each other and discuss what is featured in their picture.
This activity brings coworkers together and gets them communicating with the common goal of solving a problem, but it also allows for leaders to emerge and take control of the task.
The Great Egg Drop
Time Required: 2 hours
This messy, yet classic and engaging problem solving activity requires splitting the room into two large groups with the task of building an egg package that can sustain an eight foot drop.
A variety of tools and other materials should be provided to the teams. After the packages have been built, each team must also present a 30-second advert for their package, highlighting why it's unique and how it works.
At the conclusion of the presentations, each group will have to drop their egg using their package to see if it really works.
Aside from teaching the groups to work together and communicate, it also brings them together with the common goal of both winning the egg drop and successfully creating an egg package.
Create your Own Team Building Activities
Time Required: 1 hour
The group leader should present participants with this fake problem: The hour was going to be spent doing a problem solving activity, but as the group leader- you don't know any and you don't want to do one that the participants have already heard or tried previously.
The goal- or problem- then, is to have each group of participants come up with a new problem solving activity that they've invented themselves.
Groups should be no larger than four or five people and at the end of the hour, each group must come up and present their new problem solving activity.
Aside from being a problem solving activity in and of itself, this activity also promotes creativity, communication, trust, and time management, among other things.
Team building activities are undertaken today in education on all levels as well as in many different types of businesses. In all cases, new ideas are generated as well as productivity.

So finally I went out and spend some money on replacing my Samsung Dart (why do I always want to call it a Dodge Dart? Guess because they both kind of suck)
I went to the T-mobile store and picked up a Samsung Galaxy S 4G. The cost of the phone with a qualifying prepaid or "monthly 4G" plan was $250. The problem is these idiots in the store forced me to buy a $60 activation kit for the phone which I do not need since I am already an existing customer who is just trying to upgrade the phone that I currently have.
This problem left me with an extra line of service that I do not need, and $60 poorer. I called T-mobile customer care and found out that I needed to have the pin number for the new account that the store set up for me, which I did not have since they never asked me to set a pin up. This required me to get off the line with customer service and set up a pin for my "new" account. Once that was done I called back and spoke with the stupidest rep ever. She thought I was calling to provide them with my IMEI number. HELLO it is a GSM phone all I need to do is swap my SIM card! Finally she made it seem like she was on the same page as me and told me that the credit for the account that I was forced to open would be transferred over to my existing account within 2 hours. 6 hours later and the "new" account is still active and the credit has not yet been transferred over. So I called back and finally got someone who immediately posted $25 credit to my account and advised me the remainder of the credit will post within an hour, and the "new" account will be deactivated. Finally someone who knows what they are doing.
Not sure if this is a win for me or not. The $250 price for the phone supposedly is for new prepaid service with a qualifying plan, while the full retail of the phone is closer to the $400 range. So perhaps the store was right in that to get the $250 price I had to get the activation kit, which still saves me about $100 compared to the full retail price of the phone. But since I have no use for 2 unlimited prepaid plans I figured I would try my luck at getting the money I paid transferred over to my active account.
Failing everything else, I did pay for the phone with 2 different credit cards. I put the bulk of the cost on one card, and about $50 onto another, so I could always dispute the charges on the lesser credit card if they fail to provide me with the credit.
[update] The credit was applied to my account, leaving me with no monthly charges the following month since my monthly plan is $60 and they credited my account the full $60.

The large blank spot on the map caught my eye. The name sounded intriguing: Grand Gulch Primitive Area. In my copy of Canyon Country Rock Art I learned "Grand Gulch and its tributaries are a network of canyons and washes that rank as some of the roughest yet most beautiful in the Southwest. . . Grand Gulch contains some of the most unusual as well as some of the grandest rock art in Canyon Country. . . Some figures appear in Grand Gulch that do not appear anywhere else."
Grand Gulch sounded like the perfect place for my annual spring break to Utah. So far, my trips had taken me to Canyonlands and Arches. It was time to go some place more remote, more wild, further out there. Grand Gulch fit the bill.
Humans have only made brief appearances in the life of Grand Gulch. The Anasazi lived in the canyons between 3,000 and 1,000 years ago. Throughout the canyon, evidence of their lives still remain. After the Anasazi mysteriously disappeared, only a few Native Americans and some trappers walked the canyons. In 1880 the Mormons came. Grand Gulch stood in the way as they tried to get from Hite to Bluff. The Mormons were determined enough to find a way across the Grand Canyon, at Hole in the Rock. But they had to go around Grand Gulch. It was too rugged. Later ranchers rediscovered Grand Gulch and began taking artifacts and even skeletons out and selling them. Richard Weatherhill came in 1893. He had already been digging at Mesa Verde. At the 1893 World's Fair he met Talbot and Fred Hyde, heirs to a soap fortune. They financed his expedition to Grand Gulch. The trip was a success as he found a great many artifacts and developed his Basketmaker theory. People lived in the canyons before the cliff dwellers. Weatherhll named them the basketmakers because they had not yet discovered pottery.
In 1970, 32,847 acres was designated a primitive area to protect the unique archeological and scenic values. The area still has an important religious significance for the Hopi Indians.
I began my trip at the Kane Gulch trailhead. There is a parking area and ranger station. It is a good place to pick up the latest information on conditions in the Gulch. The rangers are often out in the field, so the station does not have regular hours. Weather and water condition are posted outside.
Quickly, I packed up and headed down the trail. Lesson number one: check the shopping list in the store. I forgot toilet paper. Luckily there was someone in the parking lot willing to share. My first night was spent at Junction Ruins two miles into the canyon. I may have been in the canyon physically but not mentally. The hassles of travel were still on my mind. After dinner, I climbed up to the ruins. There were pottery shards, corn cobs, twine, charred wood, and mud balls splattered on the ceiling of the overhand. There were thumb prints in the dried mud that held the bricks together. Suddenly I was back in time. It was easy to sit back, look out and imagine the Anasazi growing corn, getting water, and hunting deer. The sounds of their lives still echoed off the cliffs. My trip had truly begun.
The first day set the pattern, exploring side canyons watching for wildlife, searching for rock art, crossing and recrossing the stream. It was easier to walk through the stream than spend all my time looking for places narrow enough to jump. The problem was my only pair of shoes were constantly soaked. I walked around camp at night in my socks. Lesson two: bring extra shoes.
By trying to think like an Anasazi, I began to learn where ruins and rock art would be found. My system was not foolproof. There were many cliffs that looked like perfect spots but for some reason the Anasazi disagreed. I did see a variety of images: bighorns, deer, lizards, people of all shapes and sizes, cornstalks, swirls, zig-zags and more. At each site I sketched, took pictures and stared in awe. What did they mean. What were they saying? Why did they make them? And the biggest question: why did they throw mud balls at the cliffs? As usual there were more questions than answers. The number of artifacts still laying around was amazing, it was like hiking in an outdoor museum. The frustrating part was thinking about how much had been stolen from the canyon over the years. Hopefully everyone can resist the urge to take even one little pottery shard. No matter the rationalization, it is stealing a part of the canyon.
Everything was going smoothly. Progress was slow, but I had no set destination. By day three I ended up at the junction of Bullet Canyon, twenty miles into the canyon. That night I learned lesson three. It can snow in the desert, even in April. All night I huddled under a small overhang. When praying is your best hope to stay dry, you know you are in trouble. Somehow I got a couple of hours sleep. By morning snow blanketed the ground. The snow was gone quickly but a problem arose. The creek was now a raging river. The nice clear stream ran sandstone red.
Using surprisingly good judgment, I decided it wasn't a good idea to continue downstream. The other people camped at Bullet Canyon called it quits. I didn't want to leave so I explored Bullet Canyon. Hopefully by morning the water level would go down.
Bullet Canyon is a major access point for hikers interested in doing a 3-4 day loop from Kane Gulch. A thousand years ago it was a major route for the Anasazi. There are several large ruins with names like Perfect Kiva and Jailhouse Ruin. I explored, caught up on sleep and dried out.
By morning the water level was down. The country below Bullet Canyon is even more remote. The scenery is spectacular. Sheer walls and mounds of red rock piled on top of each other like a child's sand castle. I explored more side canyons, found more ruins and rock art. I was hoping to find an undiscovered rock art image, but every site had at least some footprint or sign of modern times. It is a blessing and a curse that the canyon holds onto all signs. The Anasazi artifacts remain but so do all our tracks and whatever else we leave behind. It is easy to see why it is important not to leave any garbage behind. If a corn cob lasts 1,000 years, I hate to think how long toilet paper will last. Being a low impact camper takes common sense and a little extra care.
High above the river I found Big Man Panel. Several almost life-like human figures watch over the canyon. There are many theories as to why the Anasazi chose the place they did for their rock art. My theory is they picked the places with the best views. From Big Man Panel I shared the same scene with the ancient artist. In the life of the canyon we just missed meeting each other.
I wasn't disappointed by the remoteness of the canyon. The people I did meet were true backpackers. One guy was hiking all the way to the San Juan River, then up Slickhorn Canyon. A couple I met had dropped off bikes at the end of Collins Springs and planned to ride back when they got there. Both good ideas. My plan next time is to get dropped off at Collins Spring, hike down to the San Juan and then up Slickhorn.
The oldest hiker I met was a fifty-something year old women with a broken wrist. She was calmly planning her route out. The youngest was a five month old who slept right through the snow storm. Now that I'm a father, that family is a true inspiration. I may be a wilderness snob but sharing the canyons with these people only added to the experience.
My last two nights in the canyon were spent in Step Canyon. I set up a base camp. It is much easier to explore without fifty pounds on your back. I made it as far as Polly's Island, half way to the San Juan River. The stream was clear again. I had lunch and watched the water slide over the rock. Only in Canyon Country can one get a sense of geologic time. A flash flood once or twice a year, plus some wind, slowly erodes the sandstone into a magical place. It is still happening, I was just a witness to one moment frozen in rock.
Cottonwoods sang in the breeze over my head. Those incredible pale green of the leaves, with the light shining through, is my absolute favorite color. Each curve of the canyon was like a voice calling: "Come just a little further." I wanted to keep going further but the rest of the canyon had to be saved for another time.
I backtracked to Bullet Canyon and headed out. It is amazing how much one misses the first time though. I saw even more rock art and tried to soak in as much scenery as possible. A single Kokopelli played his flute for me from high on a cliff. The climb out Bullet Canyon wasn't easy. The last few miles were very steep with lots of time spent hiking around and over boulders. At the top of Cedar Mesa I followed a wash and set up camp under a cedar tree, all set for an early start. In the morning I finished my hike, then it was on to Moab.
My trip to Grand Gulch will never really be over. I'll be stuck in traffic and in my mind I take a quick mental vacation to Grand Gulch. The only thing that keeps me sane living in the suburbs of New York City is knowing places like Grand Gulch and other wilderness areas still exist. Places where nature is still in charge, not struggling to grow through a crack in the pavement. I hope Grand Gulch never gets overcrowded. The answer is not keeping places secret but, in protecting more places.

Santa Barbara and this whole weekend was a dream. My sweet bestie, Abby, and I decided to celebrate her bachelorette weekend in Santa Barbara and I am so glad we did. It blew our expectations away with the charm of the town, the restaurants, bars, and beach!! It can sometimes be hard to plan a trip, that includes making dinner reservations and events for a group, when you have never been there before!! So, I am so excited to share our trip with you and some of your favorite moments!!
Santa Barbara Weekend
We flew into LA on Thursday around noon. From there we headed up Highway 1 (or PCH) to Santa Barbara. I definitely recommend this drive, it is so beautiful!!! Once we arrived in Santa Barbara, we went to the grocery store and got settled. We rented a big house instead of a hotel to save money and it's much more fun!!! This house was just south of Santa Barbara and very close to the water!! We just loved the layout of the home and knew it would be perfect for us. Once we got there, I couldn't believe how cute it was!!!
The house is listed on VRBO (Property ID: 842480). It is 3 bedroom, 3 full bath and sleeps 8. Plenty of space for 8 girls and the back deck views were the best part!!! The house is actually in Summerland, CA and it was about a 10 minute drive into Santa Barbara!! It was less expensive to stay outside the city and honestly didn't put a damper on any of our plans!!
Thursday Night we went into Santa Barbara for dinner. They have tons of public parking near State Street!! State Street is the downtown area where all the shopping, restaurants and activities are!! We ate at Finney's Crafthouse and Kitchen. We loved it!! They have tons of beer on tap, the food was delish and it just had a cool, relaxed vibe!! It would also be super fun for happy hour!! After dinner we just took it easy and waited for the rest of the girls to get to the house!!
Friday was all about relaxing at the house and beach!!! We went to lunch at an adorable spot within walking distance from our house called Summerland Beach Cafe and enjoyed lots of mimosas:) From there, it was just a 5 minute walk to the beach!! The beach was beautiful!!!
There are few things better than a day on the beach with your girls, spiked seltzer, and sunshine!!!
Friday Night
After the beach, we went back to the house and got cleaned up. We ordered some DELICIOUS pizza from Borrello's Pizza and Pastaria. We wanted the night to seem like a typical girls sleepover. So pizza, games, and of course gifts for the bride-to-be!!! I put together about 5 different games for the group to play. It was sooo much fun! One of my favorite parts of the weekend. We definitely laughed until we cried a few times!!!
One game that is definitely worth repeating was the guessing game. Each guest brought a pair of undies for the bride. They could be any shape or style!! I secretively got the undies from each person and put them in a bag. The bride had to pull them out of the bag one by one and guess who it was from. If the bride was correct the guest had to take a drink (alcoholic haha). If the bride was wrong, she had to drink!! The best way to make this hilarious is to BE CREATIVE!!!
These plastic rings are super fun to play tons of different games with!!! For our game, I hid all the rings in our house. I told the girls that I hid them while we were eating dinner and whoever had the most rings on their fingers when the bride was finished opening gifts won. The big kicker was that once you found one you had to keep it on your finger, if you set it down it was free for someone else to take. This was a BLAST!!!
We went into Santa Barbara all day Saturday. Started with brunch at Scarlett Begonia, the food and drinks were soo good!! I definitely recommend the french fries and bloody mary!! After brunch, we walked down State Street!! We stopped in a few cute shops and then went up in the County Courthouse building. It is BEAUTIFUL and free/open to the public! They have tons of beautiful stonework and history, plus you can go up in the clocktower which has a 360 degree view of the city!!! SO gorgeous up there (more details on the courthouse here).
Santa Barbara is also full of winery shops and breweries that do tastings and flights. After the courthouse we went to a couple wineries and had some wine!! Mostly rose;) Our favorite was the Stanford!! There is a map here of the Santa Barbara Urban Wine Trail!! The funk zone is where most are and is a new up and coming area!! A restaurant that was highly recommended to us was The Lark in the funk zone. We didn't make it there but is definitely on my list if I make it back. We just had so much fun walking around and taking in all the character of the city!!!
The tank tops we all wore are from Etsy. ChampagneStitch designed them and they turned out exactly how we wanted!!! So fun and cute. Highly recommend them for any tshirts or tanks you may need!!!
Saturday Night
Our last night in Santa Barbara:(
We had dinner at a really great spot on State Street called Jane. The food was delicious. We all loved the sangria and I ate the Chicken & Fettuccine which was awesome!! From there we walked down State Street and bar hopped!!! So. Much. Fun. The weather was perfect and the city is just beautiful. A few of our favorite bars were: The Good Lion (awesome cocktails), O'Malley's Bar & Wildcat Lounge (dancing), and Sandbar.
Weekend Outfit Details
I hope you are able to get to Santa Barbara sometime in your life!! It is a beautiful and FUN place!!! For more info on Santa Barbara and things to do, check out their website here!! Off to my next adventure this weekend and will be sharing it with you, as well:)
Stay lovely, dolls

Ooh, holographic screens?
Not quite, but close. FoldMe is an MIT Fluid Interfaces project that makes paper-like touchscreen displays. Annoyingly, they need a room rigged up with overhead projectors and infrared sensors to work but the way the prototypes bend and flip is still impressive.
Will it smell nice and have dog-eared page corners?
It's only a matter of time with Smellovision round the corner. But FoldMe prototypes do put paper's finer qualities to good use – less chewing gum holder, more like being thin, light, double-sided and foldable.
Not as portable with all those projectors though?
True. But with spring-loaded reversible hinges and devices with up to three displays that fold any which way you want, all MIT has to do now is get rid of the projector set-up and IR tracking.
Apple won't keep iBooks Author distribution rights
Samsung Galaxy S III to get curved design?

Japanese architecture firm Kotaro Horiuchi has transformed their own offices into a space age cave-like environment using glass fiber paper. Paper Cave is a cozy multi-use room with a long central table that can be used for meetings, dinners or collaborative working. The permanent installation was created as a second part of the architect's Fusionner project, which was exhibited next door at Nagoya's White Cube Gallery.
For Paper Cave, Kotaro Horiuchi looked to their own architectural studio as the inspiration for a permanent exhibition that employees could not only live with, but be inspired by themselves. Since the studio is next to the White Cube Gallery, a continuation of the Fusionner project seemed natural. For the second rendition, the firm turned to glass fiber paper as an easy material that would not disrupt office life with construction mess.
Related: Hotello is a Pop-Up Hotel Room That Fits Inside a Trunk
The installation appears like a shell inside the office, taking residence between the entrance and back balcony. The malleability of the glass fiber paper allowed the design to undulate along the ceiling, curving each layer for a rippling effect. Along the center, artificial marble is stretched in waves that can double as tables, with cut outs for LEDs to shine through and stilted on thin legs to create a floating effect. The cut outs continue on the walls, allowing light from the office to illuminate the interior.
Glowing with blue LED lights throughout, the interior cave gives the office an option to host events and doubles as a saloon, meeting place or lounge, while also functioning as an extra work space.
