Apologies for not updating regularly. From now on, I will endeavor to update as daily as possible (and once I get into a rhythm, the posts will pop up at around the same time). That being said, I would love to hear specific input from you readers about what content you like, what you think is mediocre and bad, etc. I would like this blog to be interactive rather than simply me posting things that I arbitrarily think are cool, so please, tell me what you'd like to see in the future, or even submit ideas to me about future posts. Many thanks.

If you haven't seen this website yet, it's pretty rad. The basic premise is simple: people post pictures of their outfits and can comment on or "hype" others'. I was thinking about starting a similar website, and then BAM… ran across this site. It started in March, so it's only a few months old, but it's got a dedicated and fast-growing community and a lot of people with style (greater amount of people without style, but that's of no concern). It's not all girls too, there are some guys, but the male style is rather… well let's just say it's a self-selecting pool of males for a website like this. Great place to find inspiration or judge people, your choice. It's invite only right now but if you leave a comment wth your email address, I'll shoot you one (and then delete your email address from the comment afterwards). Check it out.
Martin Margiela Dollar WalletAugust 11, 2008
Yes, yes. I'm late blogging about this, I know. But ever since I saw this wallet a few months ago, I've been enamored by it's design. It's from Maison Martin Margiela's Line 11 (accesories) and is a bi-fold leather wallet disguised as a wad of cash. Too bad they're all sold out (and at a hefty $395 price point I might add). More pics after the fold.
Cloak A/W '04July 30, 2008
Pretty much awesome. Kudos to Alexander Plokhov and Robert Geller for their groundbreaking design. It's a shame that Cloak didn't last very long, but I think Robert Geller has continued to sprinkle his greatness around with his own line (which has my favorite bits of the Cloak collection). Plokhov, on the other hand, has sold his soul to Versace (for a pretty penny, I might add). Holy grail of winter jackets after the fold.

Key Lessons
- Switching to a paperless real estate transaction management software can save your business thousands of dollars a year in office costs.
- A paper-based office's expenses extend beyond printing and stationery costs, all the way to inefficient use of staff's and agent's precious time. Make a list of paper-related expenses and see how much your company could save by becoming paperless.
Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Elite Real Estate Saves $30,000+ Annually By Partnering with Paperless Pipeline
Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Elite Real Estate switched its paper-based offices to Paperless Pipeline in August 2012. Thanks to that winning move, the company now saves over $30,000 each year in stationery costs alone.
Located in Utah County, Berkshire Hathaway Home Services Elite Real Estate (BHHS Elite) is a 150-agent office supported by 12 staff members working out of three offices.
Bruce Trucker, BHHS Elite's CEO and Principal Broker since 2001, has been fostering a company culture that's filled with fun and energy. The weekly sales meetings are always lively, and office parties always aplenty, keeping the entire team a tight-knit, fun-loving group of go-getters.
Marlan Platt, the company's CFO since 2001, loves what this culture has done for the company.
I have to say, it really is kind of a family atmosphere. Everybody has each other's backs. We all work together and help each other and have a good time doing it.
Every year, the company handles over 2,500 transactions aggregating more than $14 million in GCI (gross commission income).
For Bruce and Marlan (the CEO, CFO team), being able to accomplish the entire transaction management workflow electronically is a welcome dream. It has replaced the frustrating sight of interminable reams of paper being zipped around.
Challenges of a Paper-Based Office
Paper-based processes, coupled with a huge volume of transactions, had started creating major problems for the company:
Increased stationery costs: Each office needed 4 cases of paper per week amounting to an annual cost of over $19,000.
Reduced staff efficiency: Admins were spending large amounts of time shuffling paper, sifting through filing cabinets and working with outdated fax machines.
Lack of agent mobility: Agents' long daily commutes were becoming a point of contention.
And more: The company had to hire couriers to transfer boxes of file folders between offices. And the annual cost of renting a storage facility had reached $1,200.
Bruce and Marlan realized that the high cost and inefficiency of the current state of affairs was unsustainable for the business. It was time to say goodbye to paper.
Over the next 6 months, they investigated 4 real estate transaction management solutions only to discover that none would help cut costs and simplify operations. All 4 solutions were encumbered with excessive fees and unnecessary services.
After months of searching and debating, they discovered Paperless Pipeline.
We met with Pipeline reps online and talked about costs. When we saw the presentation, we said, 'This is something that we need to jump on.' We looked at it being cost effective. It's been good for us. And people are on board with this and are utilizing the system really well.
Introducing Paperless Pipeline
Bruce and Marlan were initially attracted to Pipeline for two major reasons:
- Pipeline's pricing model: A Pipeline account may be upgraded or downgraded at any time. Also, unlike other services, Pipeline's pricing is based on the number of transactions created per month and not on the number of agents in the company.
- No long-term contracts: Customers can cancel their service with Pipeline at any time without being locked into a long-term commitment.
A month later, following a personal demo and a successful free trial, BHHS Elite became a Paperless Pipeline customer.
Cindy Cross, BHHS Elite's Accounting Admin, attended the free online training class provided by Paperless Pipeline to all its customers. Included in her training materials was a Pipeline customer case study showing how that company's old paper-based processes were easily and seamlessly replaced by corresponding new paperless processes. Cindy was able to customize the lessons from this case study into a user guide for BHHS Elite's own agents.
Paperless Pipeline brings Big Savings
Fewer admins: Thanks to Pipeline's efficiency, Bruce and Marlan were able to eliminate a full-time admin staff position resulting in $24,000 a year in savings.
Time savings: Marlan explains: "Pipeline takes a ten-minute job and makes it a two-minute job. You do that a dozen times a day and you can see how that comes back to benefit us."
No file storage costs, reduced stationery costs: Pipeline stores copies of all of BHHS Elite's transaction data in a secure, reliable, and easy to access electronic format. Eliminating the storage shed expense has resulted in a saving of $1,200 per year. Pipeline lets BHHS Elite manage the entire transaction workflow without paper. The elimination of paper saves BHHS Elite $6,000 per year.
We've saved $24,000 in personnel, $1,200 in storage costs, and $6,000 in paper per year. We're already at $30,000 -plus. And I'm spending less than $5,000 with Paperless Pipeline.

Elemental Well-Being is a holistic approach to managing anxiety and depression.
(I should point out immediately that Elemental Well-Being is not a substitute for prescribed medications or professional counselling- if you are taking medication or seeing a professional then continue to do so; medication and therapy help to bring balance to the mind and body through scientific means. We understand that anxiety and depression is a cause and/or symptom with physical and mental effects such as sleep issues, negative thought patterns, accelerated heart rate, bladder control, etc. The professionals- the trained doctors, nurses, psychiatrists- who have studied the mind and body recognise the chemical imbalances, and with experience can give us support in the form of prescriptions and counselling appointments which can help us cope in every day life.)
Elemental Well-Being uses the concepts of the Elements- Earth, Air, Fire, Water, Spirit-to help you reflect on your own personal well-being, enabling you to recognise the energies present within you. By understanding which Elemental energies are dominant or passive in your life, you can begin to bring more balance to yourself.
Earth- Eating & Sleeping
Physical body
Earth is the foundation for growth and our physical energy levels- how much physical energy we have depends mostly on what we eat and how we rest. Our brains are first primed to demand food and sleep as parents of a new born will tell you!
Nourishment and time to regain our strength is essential to our growth, healing and development, with good diet and rest habits providing a healthy foundation to our wellbeing. With a good night's sleep and a decent breakfast under your belt, you feel ready to begin your day.
The Earthly aspect of our being is much to do with the physical care of our bodies including feeding it, resting it and cleaning it- all good hygiene practices sustain health and prevent infections and diseases from spreading thanks to the healing and cleansing properties of Water.
Exercise increases our strength and fitness levels, as well as releases happy chemicals in our brain to help satisfy our body and mind. It is a good reminder to feel our muscles and bones working to keep us balanced, focused, poised and in touch with our physical selves, to raise our Earthly vibration.
If you feeling very tired, or low in mood in could be due to diet (not eating enough or unhealthy eating habits) or lack of rest. Similarly we might feel out of touch with the Earth element if we eat or sleep too much- we become blocked and feel sluggish, demotivated. Balancing the Earth element requires a diet which satisfies our nutritional needs and enough rest to ensure our energy levels can be replenished sufficiently.
Lack of Earth energy: restless sleep and insomnia, loss of appetite and diet issues, body insecurities, nutritional defienency, restless energy
Excessive Earth energy: feeling physically drained, eating over–processed foods, lack of exercise, over-eating, over-sleeping
Air- Thoughts & Communication
Mental Process
The Air elemental aspects of our well being are things like our mental thought processes and communication; sound travels through air which is why these are interlinked. Our memories, problem solving, logic and reasoning are part of our inner Air attributes, as well as our ability to communicate.
When there is an lack of Air energy we may find it hard to concentrate or focus, or become forgetful. Information seems to slip through our memory and we find it harder to problem-solve. We may also find it more difficult to communicate our thoughts and feelings to others, or explain ourselves, or experience social anxieties and shyness, or feel at a loss for words.
Activities that stimulate our logical brain such as crosswords, Sudoku, or other form of puzzles are mental exercises that pleasantly challenge and refresh our internal Air aspects. Reading, music, and any form of art is also very stimulating to our minds; without inspiration or stimulation, our brains become mush and we feel stagnant, and unoriginal. A flash of inspiration can sometimes feel like a sudden gust of wind, blowing away the mental cobwebs from our minds.
We become more vulnerable and uninspired if we spend hours in front of a screen where advertising influences every aspect of our modern lives. Instead of becoming engaged with our environment, we are tuning out of it. Television can be a relaxing, social aspect where a family can relax together to enjoy a film, or people converse about TV shows, and it can be a way to get information across to a vast audience, but too much television can damage our capabilities to socialise and think for ourselves due to media manipulation and carefully crafted subliminally advertising.
Excessive Air energy can also be harmful to us- we can over think situations and jump to conclusions or worry unnecessarily. Learning to control our focus and manage our thoughts can be explored through meditation which can calm the mind and body, and cognitive behavioural therapy to encourage more healthy thought processes.
Lack of Air energy: creative blocks, Difficulty in voicing your thoughts, negative/pessimistic thoughts, indecisive
Excessive Air energy: whirlwind of thoughts, immersed with too many projects, tendency to babble or go off topic, obsessive thoughts
Fire: Ambition & Motivation
Energy of Will
Fire can be both a constructive and destructive force, depending on how it is used. The "fire in our belly" is the Fire energy that fuels our ambition and gives us the driving force we need to complete our goals and succeed. When we complete our task in hand, we often feel a warm glow of satisfaction from a job well done.
Situations that encourage competiveness stimulate Fire energies; competition can be healthy and constructive- we have much to learn from others and putting our skills to the test can be fun, although some people can be dominated by Fire energy and become too competitive. There is grace in both winning and losing!
Challenging others in healthy competition can be fun, but ultimately challenging ourselves is a good way to get in touch with the fiery determination that we evoke to master a new skill or complete a deadline. Fundraising for charities is a positive way to channel competitive energies and give a boost to motivation in doing something positive for others.
Passion is an effect of Fire energy- it is not love or lust…we can hate or love something with a passion. This kind of passion is a force, and it can inspire us to do great things or terrible things when it is the sole drive of our desires. If we are all consumed with Fire energy, we become obsessive, destroying whatever gets in our way. We must learn to recognise what triggers us in order to control our reactions to it. We have the power within ourselves to turn potentially damaging energies into more positive and constructive ones, often using creativity as a venting process and expression of our feelings.
Adrenaline could also be heavily linked with Fire energies; people get thrills from going on roller-coasters or doing extreme sports, and some even become "hooked" on experiencing these fierce bursts of Fire energies, continuously seeking activities that hit their survival flight-or-flight button.
Lack of Fire Energy: feeling undesirable, unmotivated, no ambitions or current goals, lack of enthusiasm, unable to feel excited
Excessive Fire energy: issues controlling anger, easily irritated, overly sensitive, sore loser/bad winner, dominating/aggressive
Water- Emotions & Reflection
The energies of Water are closely linked with our emotions and feelings; we cry tears of joy, laughter, happiness, and we also shed tears in grief, anger, sadness. Water as a key element is also known for its purifying and healing properties.
Tears are a physical expression of emotion, our body's release of extreme feelings. Crying can be a form of physical and emotional release, and is a healthy part of a healing and cleansing process. As well as tears, the human body also produces water in the form of sweat which is a biological process that helps our bodies to regulate our internal temperature and gets rid of toxins.
Everyday life is filled with stresses- some more draining and emotionally provoking than others- and we all experience some kind of trauma in our lives whether it be a job redundancy, family break up, test failure, health scare, relationship problem…things are, of course never always easy and we all have various ways of coping. Ultimately life is full of experiences we can learn from, where what we encounter has a rippling effect on what we think and how we react.

By creating a strategic accounting system and implementing sufficient control policies, WCC as an organization has the oversight, controls and transparency needed to have the strong financial accountability required of good stewards.
We at WCC look at stewardship this way:

Policymakers are working behind the scenes to come up with a way to let states declare bankruptcy and get out from under crushing debts, including the pensions they have promised to retired public workers.
Unlike cities, the states are barred from seeking protection in federal bankruptcy court. Any effort to change that status would have to clear high constitutional hurdles because the states are considered sovereign.
But proponents say some states are so burdened that the only feasible way out may be bankruptcy, giving
Beyond their short-term budget gaps, some states have deep structural problems, like insolvent pension funds, that are diverting money from essential public services like education and health care. Some members of Congress fear that it is just a matter of time before a state seeks a bailout, say bankruptcy lawyers who have been consulted by Congressional aides.
Bankruptcy could permit a state to alter its contractual promises to retirees, which are often protected by state constitutions, and it could provide an alternative to a no-strings bailout. Along with retirees, however, investors in a state's
"All of a sudden, there's a whole new risk factor," said Paul S. Maco, a partner at the firm Vinson & Elkins who was head of the
For now, the fear of destabilizing the
House Republicans, and Senators from both parties, have taken an interest in the issue, with nudging from bankruptcy lawyers and a former House speaker,
Lawmakers might decide to stop short of a full-blown bankruptcy proposal and establish instead some sort of oversight panel for distressed states, akin to the Municipal Assistance Corporation, which helped
Still, discussions about something as far-reaching as bankruptcy could give governors and others more leverage in bargaining with unionized public workers.
"They are readying a massive assault on us," said Charles M. Loveless, legislative director of the
Mr. Loveless said he was meeting with potential allies on Capitol Hill, making the point that certain states might indeed have financial problems, but public employees and their benefits were not the cause. The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities released a report on Thursday warning against a tendency to confuse the states' immediate budget gaps with their long-term structural deficits.
"States have adequate tools and means to meet their obligations," the report stated.
No state is known to want to declare bankruptcy, and some question the wisdom of offering them the ability to do so now, given the jitters in the normally staid municipal bond market.
Slightly more than $25 billion has flowed out of
Mr. Maco said the mere introduction of a state bankruptcy bill could lead to "some kind of market penalty," even if it never passed. That "penalty" might be higher borrowing costs for a state and downward pressure on the value of its bonds. Individual bondholders would not realize any losses unless they sold.
But institutional investors in municipal bonds, like
"The precipitating event at G.M. was they were out of cash and had no ability to raise the capital they needed," said
Mr. Wilson, who ran an unsuccessful campaign for
He noted that G.M. was salvaged only through an administration-led effort that Congress initially resisted, with legislators voting against financial assistance to G.M. in late 2008.
"Now Congress is much more conservative," he said. "A state shows up and wants cash, Congress says no, and it will probably be at the last minute and it's a real problem. That's what I'm concerned about."
Discussion of a new bankruptcy option for the states appears to have taken off in November, after Mr. Gingrich gave a speech about the country's big challenges, including government debt and an uncompetitive labor market.
"We just have to be honest and clear about this, and I also hope the House Republicans are going to move a bill in the first month or so of their tenure to create a venue for state bankruptcy," he said.
A few weeks later, David A. Skeel, a law professor at the
"I have never had anything I've written get as much attention as that piece," said Mr. Skeel, who said he had since been contacted by Republicans and Democrats whom he declined to name.
Mr. Skeel said it was possible to envision how bankruptcy for states might work by looking at the existing law for local governments. Called Chapter 9, it gives distressed municipalities a period of debt-collection relief, which they can use to restructure their obligations with the help of a bankruptcy judge.
Unfunded pensions become unsecured debts in municipal bankruptcy and may be reduced. And the law makes it easier for a bankrupt city to tear up its labor contracts than for a bankrupt company, said James E. Spiotto, head of the bankruptcy practice at Chapman & Cutler in
The biggest surprise may await the holders of a state's general obligation bonds. Though widely considered the strongest
Mr. Spiotto said he thought bankruptcy court was not a good avenue for troubled states, and he has designed an alternative called the Public Pension Funding Authority. It would have mandatory jurisdiction over states that failed to provide sufficient funding to their workers' pensions or that were diverting money from essential public services.
"I've talked to some people from Congress, and I'm going to talk to some more," he said. "This effort to talk about Chapter 9, I'm worried about it. I don't want the states to have to pay higher borrowing costs because of a panic that they might go bankrupt. I don't think it's the right thing at all. But it's the beginning of a dialog."Continue reading the main story

Hey loves ♥ I've really been loving all of NYX Cosmetics products lately. I feel the quality is getting better and better. Products that highlight the face are one of my favorite beauty products to try. When I heard NYX was coming out with their own highlight palette, NYX Strobe of Genius, I knew I needed to try it. Will this be a hit or miss?
The palette contains seven creamy luminous shades to highlight with. There is a highlighting shade for everyone. I like how you can customize your highlight with one palette. You can go from natural to dramatic really fast.
How to use: First, pick from one of three large shades as your base and apply to your cheekbones, nose, cupids bow and chin or where ever else you like to illuminate. Then you choose any of the colors in the first row to layer your highlight and make it more intense. The top row of colors compliment very well with the bottom row.
This product is definitely a hit! the shades are creamy and blend beautifully. I love how you can customize your highlight to suit your style and its great quality for the price.
I hope you enjoyed this post. Don't forget to follow to see more beauty posts, I will follow you back ♥

Officers were called to the 1700 block of East Olive Way around 1 a.m. on a report of gunfire, according to police. They were told that several people got into a fight on the club's dance floor and the brawl continued after security staff escorted them outside. Witnesses said one of the men kicked out of the club walked away to get a gun. When he returned, he fired one shot into the air, police said. He then pointed the gun at one person and fired, but no one was struck by the gunfire. The front door to the club was shattered, however. The gunman then got into a gold SUV and drove away, police said. Police stopped a gold 2001 GMC Yukon near the club a short time later, said police spokesman Mark Jamieson. The driver was detained and brought back to the club, where witnesses identified him as the gunman, Jamieson said. The man was taken to the East Precinct and then to Harborview Medical Center, for an unknown medical condition. Once the man is released from the hospital he will be booked into the King County Jail. The gang unit is investigating. Comments | More in The Blotter | Topics: Capitol Hill, gunfire, Seattle Police Department Gang Unit

BEAM is designed to raise awareness about asthma and educate youth and their parents or caregivers about asthma and how best to manage it. The pilot program was launched during the 2014-2015 grant year across at 36 sites in 9 counties across New Jersey, where the Boys & Girls Clubs implemented the American Lung Association's Open Airways for Schools and the Asthma Awareness Program.
Across 36 sites, 391 Club members participated in Open Airways for Schools and 1,489 Club members participated in the Asthma Awareness Program.
Due to the overwhelming success of the pilot phase, the BEAM program was renewed for a 2nd year with the Boys & Girls Clubs in New Jersey.

Centennial, Colo., (December 3, 2013) – Cochlear Limited (ASX: COH), the global leader in implantable hearing solutions, announced that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared the Cochlear™ Baha® 4 Attract System for use in the United States. Cochlear is the only company to now offer patients a choice of either a magnetic or a direct bone conduction hearing solution.
"The Baha 4 Attract System sets new standards in simplicity, comfort and hearing performance for magnetic bone conduction implant systems," said Chris Smith, President of Cochlear Americas. "We are pleased to be bringing this new hearing option to patients who want to enjoy the benefits of the Baha System without a skin penetrating abutment. Cochlear is dedicated to being a leader in bone conduction and this important milestone further emphasizes our commitment to continuing our legacy in innovation."
The new Baha 4 Attract System uses magnets to connect the sound processor to the titanium implant. The sound processor simply attaches to the external magnet which transmits the sound to the internal magnet hidden under the skin. The single-point of transmission through the osseointegrated implant and Cochlear's advanced sound processor technology enables efficient conduction of sound.
The first Baha 4 Attract System surgeries in the United States began on November 26. To date, approximately 100 people have been implanted worldwide. Clinical experience reports that surgery is straightforward using the proven principles of Baha surgery.
The FDA clearance of the Baha 4 Attract System follows shortly behind the commercial launch of the new Baha 4 Sound Processor, which features the powerful Ardium™ platform – three times faster, with eight times more memory than the previous generation. The added power within the Baha 4 Sound Processor drives sophisticated sound technologies, true 2.4 GHz digital wireless connectivity and remote controls, perfect for anyone who is "on the go."
About Cochlear
Cochlear is the global leader in implantable hearing solutions. It has a dedicated global team of more than 2,700 people who deliver the gift of sound to those with hearing loss in over 100 countries. Its vision is to connect people, young and old, to a world of sound by offering life enhancing hearing solutions.
The Cochlear promise of "Hear now. And always" embodies the company's commitment to providing its recipients with their best possible hearing performance today and for the rest of their lives.

Call me crazier than bat guano, but I actually think the Dallas Cowboys will be fine ... fine ... fine ... fine ... fine ... fine.
Damn, all the sudden it's lonely in here.
At 0-2 and an underdog on the road this week in Houston against the undefeated Texans, things don't look too swell. Far as I can tell, no team has ever started 0-3 and recovered to play in a Super Bowl and only the '92 Chargers, '95 Lions and '98 Bills regrouped to make the playoffs.
No doubt the wheels are wobbly. In the wake of Bears 27, Cowboys 20, Monday at Valley Ranch, there was a players-only meeting, a testy head coach Wade Phillips got into it with that damned media and safety Gerald Sensabaugh compared his team to a bunch of circus clowns.
But I don't think they are a bad team. More like a good team playing horribly. Fatally flawed teams are hapless, anemic. They don't have the ability to generate offense or the backbone to force a three-and-out. I know stats are hollow, but in this case they lead me to believe all is not lost.
Through two games the Cowboys have dominated their opponents in first downs (47-31), third-down conversions (11 of 26-4 of 24) total yards (790-558), offensive snaps (142-105), passing yards (651-431) and time of possession (33:51-26:09). Sorry, but those aren't the tell-tale signs of a 5-11 team.
That said, two missed field goals and a minus-4 turnover ratio = 0-2. Cowboys' radio analyst Babe Laufenberg said it best after Sunday's game:
"After a game like this you don't assess blame by pointing a finger," he said, "you simply pull back a thumb."
Who do you most blame for Oh and Two?
A) Wade Phillips.
B) Jason Garrett.
C) Tony Romo.
D) Jerry Jones.
E) David Buehler.
F) Roy Williams.

The Beginning
Freedom Credit Union was originally chartered in 1922 as the Western Massachusetts Telephone Workers Credit Union. From a small office in the telephone company building on Worthington Street, the credit union grew until we found a new home on Main Street in Springfield. Today, this branch serves as the credit union's headquarters.
Membership Growth
As demand for the benefits of a credit union grew, we applied for a community charter. In January 2001, membership eligibility was greatly expanded to include anyone who lived or worked in Hampden, Hampshire, Franklin, or Berkshire counties.
The Birth of Freedom Credit Union
In January 2004, the membership voted to change the credit union's name to Freedom Credit Union. The following year our Credit Union Partners (CUPs) program was created. This unique program provides businesses a no-cost benefits package to their employees including credit union membership and special promotions. In 2014, membership eligibility was expanded again to include anyone attending college in the four counties of Western MA.
Branch Expansion
Since 2004, Freedom has opened nine branches (in addition to the Main Office) along the I-91 corridor to better serve our membership. Our newest branch was opened in September 2014 in the Roger L. Putnam Vocational Technical Academy in Springfield.
2004 Northampton and Chicopee
2005 Turners Falls
2009 Greenfield and Feeding Hills
2010 Easthampton
2011 Sixteen Acres in Springfield
2012 Ludlow

Absolutely nothing fantastic was ever achieved with out enthusiasm. Ralph Waldo Emerson

The Medtronic 640G
I did start to write a review of my new pump – Medtronic's beautifully named "640G". Oh, how for me the lovely name "640G" summons up heady images of Paris boulevards in the springtime; wild flowers swaying in the meadow's breeze and halcyon thoughts of baby kittens in baskets. Sigh.

Moldova 2009
On Monday, I'm heading out for the third and final time with a team of students to Moldova to partner with the IFES movement there, CSC.
I'm a swirl of emotions as I prepare to return to Moldova. It's been a hard period of sad goodbyes to friends in Lancashire, and the past few weeks have been quite demanding. The whole setup in Moldova means that you are made to feel weak. I'm already feeling weak and so I'm somewhat nervous about how I might cope this year.
At the same time, I'm aware of how amazing an opportunity we have in Moldova. The main part of the camp is resourcing an 'English and Bible Camp' where there will be about 60 Moldovan students (including 40 non-believers) who come to practice conversational English and study the Bible. We're using The World We All Want evangelistic Bible overview and I'm excited to see the impact this makes in the Moldovan context.
Please pray for us. We're a big team with an extraordinary amount of diversity. Pray that this acts to underline the truth of the gospel that we are proclaiming, rather than act as something that undermines team unity. Pray that we're not ashamed of the gospel, that the British team grow in their knowledge and love of Jesus, and that God draws people to himself.
I'll try to update from Moldova, but this might not be possible.

Writing Your Philosophy Of Education Statement
Perennialism, Perennialists is the aim of education is to ensure that students acquire understandings about the great ideas of Western civilization. Scheffler advancing the education theory, it would be all but scandalous to betray an obliviousness toward the possibilities for philosophical integration, identifying the source in philosophical deliberation of the particular educational position taken.
As intractable as ascertaining the operative rules governing education practice may be, so long as we are dealing with the relative notion we still have it going for us that we can have recourse to these explicitly espoused ideals, doctrines, records, social mores, and philosophies in making our determination.

By the 1970's the influence of analytic philosophy on philosophy of education had begun to wane, and feminist, multiculturalist, and postmodern critiques of education and educational theory became more prevalent.

Day One
Nikki & I took a road trip to Georgetown in DC for her birthday this past weekend. We stopped along the way at the most beautiful rest stop you've ever seen. It was surrounded by mountains and all of the leaves were changing. So of course we had to take a birthday selfie.
We stayed at the Avenue Suites in Georgetown and it was a really pretty, modern hotel. The lobby offered fruit infused water, a swanky restaurant, beautiful seating and a fireplace. Our room was fantastic, because it had an office/living room, large bedroom & bath and a kitchen!
I had to capture this picture! I met one of my fellow Delta Zeta's (one of Nikki's close friends who came on the trip - all three of us are DZ's) and we were wearing almost identical shoes! Hers are on the left from Sperry and mine are the pair on the right from Vince Camuto.
How cute is this tassel garland from Target?!
Okay, so I was really impressed with myself and my gift wrap. I wasn't sure what I wanted to get Nikki for her birthday so I went to browse at a local boutique. I spotted this pink cheetah catch all tray in their back room and had to have it! I filled it with hot pink filler, bubble gum jelly beans in a honey bear (they have these at Fresh Market), an Eos pink lotion and a mug from Ashley Brooke Designs that says "More Sugar!"
As a surprise, Nikki made us all party favors - bubble gum filled picture mason jars! Thanks Nikki!
We even had flash tattoos and some fun jewels.
After we got settled we headed over to Trader Joes, conveniently across the street, to get breakfast for the next day and any snacks we thought we would want. In the end Nikki and I took bags of food home hah...which wasn't so bad since I didn't have to grocery shop when I got back on Sunday. Also, I had never been to Trader Joes before and OMG! So wonderful and so affordable!
If we needed any more sugar, Nikki brought along a candy bar for us to snack on while we had a chick flick marathon the first night. No joke, we put on our pjs at 4pm and ordered in dinner & dessert Crepes from Crepe & Cream (highly recommend - they also have amazing hot chocolate!).
Day Two
If you love macarons you will LOVE this macaron shop in downtown Georgetown called Olivia. My favorite? Passion Fruit or Raspberry.
Saturday night is when we went all out for Halloween! Costumes from right to left: A League of Their Own (costume winner), Devil, Scuba Diver, Gum Ball Machine, Piñata (this took so much time and so much glue hah - we visited CVS several times - the result was awesome!).
Day Three
On our last day in Georgetown we went to brunch with some of Nikki's family at the Peacock Cafe. I had a breakfast sandwich croissant with bacon and coffee and left incredibly satisfied. I ended up wearing my favorite faux fur vest again - it's already a November favorite.
Sadly, we had to say goodbye after brunch so that everyone could head home. We dropped one off down the street, one off at the train station headed to NYC, one to the airport headed to Orlando and then Nikki and I were off back down South. It was so wonderful to meet all of Nikki's friends - that I can now call my friends too! Such a beautiful group inside and out, and not to mention smart and motivated. My mom always told me your judged by the company you keep and these girls are the best company I could ask for!

Over the past year, I have moved from a pretty open schedule to a more demanding one due to becoming a business owner. I love what I am doing. I love being able to learn and grow and nurture a business that means a lot to me.
I have been working at better time management – scheduling my day, prioritizing my to do list, delegating things when I can. I am finding, however, I am having a harder time letting things go when it is time just to hang out with my husband or allow for reading time. I feel the pull of needing to do MORE with my time. It feels harder to be able sit and just be or to allow myself a nap or other down time. Busy must feel good to my brain and it wants to be occupied and working on something rather than here in this moment.
I don't like the feeling. That feeling of HAVING to do something or feeling like I SHOULD be doing something. To be accomplishing at every moment. Of not being able to relax and be. Of not welcoming the moment that is right in front of me. Of not being present in the time I am sharing with my husband or friends.
SO I will practice. I will practice letting go of busyness. I will practice being with that frantic feeling of "you need to be doing something!" without actioning on it. I will practice returning to the moment in front of me again and again. I will breathe and allow for what is here.
How do you all find that balance? To be productive when you need to be and then to be still or present in the downtime when its time for that?

Public Health Statement for 3,3'-Dichlorobenzidine
December 1998
This Public Health Statement is the summary chapter from the Toxicological Profile for 3,3'-Dichlorobenzidine. It is one in a series of Public Health Statements about hazardous substances and their health effects. A shorter version, the ToxFAQs™, is also available. This information is important because this substance may harm you. The effects of exposure to any hazardous substance depend on the dose, the duration, how you are exposed, personal traits and habits, and whether other chemicals are present. For more information, call the ATSDR Information Center at 1-888-422-8737.
This public health statement tells you about 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine and the effects of exposure.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) identifies the most serious hazardous waste sites in the nation. These sites make up the National Priorities List (NPL) and are the sites targeted for long-term federal cleanup activities. 3,3'-Dichlorobenzidine has been found in at least 32 of the 1,467 current or former NPL sites. However, the total number of NPL sites evaluated for this substance is not known. As more sites are evaluated, the sites at which 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine is found may increase. This information is important because exposure to this substance may harm you and because these sites may be sources of exposure.
When a substance is released from a large area, such as an industrial plant, or from a container, such as a drum or bottle, it enters the environment. This release does not always lead to exposure. You are exposed to a substance only when you come in contact with it. You may be exposed by breathing, eating, or drinking the substance or by skin contact.
If you are exposed to 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine, many factors determine whether you'll be harmed. These factors include the dose (how much), the duration (how long), and how you come in contact with it. You must also consider the other chemicals you're exposed to and your age, sex, diet, family traits, lifestyle, and state of health.
1.1 What is dichlorobenzidine?
3,3'-Dichlorobenzidine is a gray-to-purple colored crystalline solid. It changes from a solid to a gas very slowly. 3,3'-Dichlorobenzidine salt, the major form in actual use, is a stable, off-white colored crystalline solid that does not evaporate. Neither 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine nor its salt occur naturally in the environment. They are manufactured for use in the production of pigments for printing inks, textiles, plastics and enamels, paint, leather, and rubber. Whether 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine or the salt is present as such depends on the acidity of the soil or water as well as other factors. In most environmental samples, such as water and soils, 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine would be expected to exist in the free amino form, not as the salt.
1.2 What happens to dichlorobenzidine when it enters the environment?
3,3'-Dichlorobenzidine breaks down rapidly when exposed to natural sunlight. In air and sunshine, it is estimated that half of the chemical breaks down within 9.7 hours. In water exposed to natural sunlight, 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine is expected to break down rapidly, with half being removed in approximately 90 seconds. In soil, where no sunlight is present, the compound may last for several months. Under certain conditions, 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine can break down in soil to form another compound, benzidine, which is toxic.
1.3 How might I be exposed to dichlorobenzidine?
3,3'-Dichlorobenzidine is used to make pigments (substances used to give color to something, for example, paint). You are most likely to be exposed to 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine if you work inside plants where the chemical is manufactured or used. However, employers have limited workers' exposure to the chemical by using closed systems for processing as well as other methods for reducing its concentration in the air to very low levels and by requiring workers to wear protective clothing and use special equipment. If you were exposed in such a workplace, it would probably be by breathing in the dust or by getting the chemical on your skin. Careless handling or accidental spillage of the chemical could result in exposure to potentially hazardous levels of 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine. People may be exposed to the chemical if they live or work near land where plant wastes have been stored or buried, or close to lakes, streams, or rivers near where plants discharge process water or store wastes. Most people do not live near a source of the chemical. The Canadian government has published calculations that show that exposure of the Canadian general population to 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine in air, soil, or water is extremely low. If you do live in areas near a source of the chemical (such as a hazardous waste site that contains dye or pigment manufacturing wastes), some exposure could occur if you or a child accidentally or purposely ingested small amounts of contaminated soil, drank contaminated water, or ate fish caught in waters near the source. However, studies of water and fish taken from locations near dye-manufacturing plants did not find the chemical.
3,3'-Dichlorobenzidine has no agricultural or food chemical uses, so exposure to it by eating contaminated food is not likely.
1.4 How can dichlorobenzidine enter and leave my body?
In the workplace, 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine may enter the body when workers breathe dust contaminated by 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine and through skin contact. You are not likely to be exposed to 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine unless you drink water or eat dirt contaminated with 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine in the vicinity of a hazardous waste site where 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine has been stored and leakage has occurred. When 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine does enter the body, very little of it leaves the body unchanged. Most of it (over 90%) is changed to related chemical substances called metabolites, which leave the body, mainly in urine and to a lesser extent in feces, within 72 hours after exposure.
1.5 How can dichlorobenzidine affect my health?
Some workers exposed to the salt form of 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine complained of sore throat, respiratory infections, stomach upset, headache, dizziness, caustic burns, and dermatitis (an inflammation of the skin). However, with the exception of dermatitis, it is not certain that 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine causes these health effects because the workers were also exposed to other chemicals at the same time. There is no evidence that 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine affects the nervous system, the ability to fight disease, or the ability of people to have children.
To protect the public from the harmful effects of toxic chemicals and to find ways to treat people who have been harmed, scientists use many tests.
One way to see if a chemical will hurt people is to learn how the chemical is absorbed, used, and released by the body; for some chemicals, animal testing may be necessary. Animal testing may also be used to identify health effects such as cancer or birth defects. Without laboratory animals, scientists would lose a basic method to get information needed to make wise decisions to protect public health. Scientists have the responsibility to treat research animals with care and compassion. Laws today protect the welfare of research animals, and scientists must comply with strict animal care guidelines.
Death has occurred in laboratory animals that ate very high levels of 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine mixed in their food for short periods of time. Laboratory animals exposed to moderate levels of 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine mixed with food for a long time suffered mild injury to the liver.
Studies show that 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine caused cancer of the liver, skin, breast, bladder, and tissues that form blood (leukemia), and other sites in laboratory animals that ate 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine in their food. There is no evidence that 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine has caused cancer in people who worked with it or who were exposed to it unknowingly or by accident for a short or long time. However, because of the many types of cancer that 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine has caused in different tissues of many types of laboratory animals, 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine should be thought of as probably capable of causing human cancer if exposure to the chemical is sufficiently high.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has determined that 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine is a "probable human carcinogen." The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) has determined that 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine and its salt may reasonably be expected to be cancer-causing substances (carcinogens). The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) has determined that 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine is possibly carcinogenic to humans.
1.6 How can dichlorobenzidine affect children?
This section discusses potential health effects from exposures during the period from conception to maturity at 18 years of age in humans. Potential effects on children resulting from exposures of the parents are also considered.
Children might be exposed to 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine if they eat small amounts of soil contaminated with 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine. However, studies suggest that it is very difficult to release 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine once it becomes attached to soil. Exposure via contaminated soil may occur if they live in an area near a source of the chemical (such as a hazardous waste site that contains 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine). Children can also be exposed if the parents work at chemical facilities where 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine is handled and bring home contaminated clothing or tools or if they do not shower before coming home. There are no known unique exposure pathways for children.
There have been no studies of health effects in children exposed to 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine. We have no information on whether 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine causes birth defects in children. It is unknown whether birth defects would occur in the offspring of pregnant animals that breathed or eaten 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine, or had it on their skin. In studies in which pregnant mice were injected with high amounts of 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine under the skin, the kidneys of their babies did not develop properly and some babies developed renal tumors. However, it is highly unlikely that humans will encounter such exposure conditions.
There is no information to determine whether children are different in their sensitivity to the health effects of 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine from adults. There is indirect evidence that 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine or its breakdown products can cross the placenta, but we do not know for certain whether it can be transferred to the young via the mother's breast milk. Sometimes when children have been exposed to chemicals before they are born, the chemical or its breakdown products can be found in amniotic fluid, meconium, cord blood, or neonatal blood; however, no information about such measurements was found for 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine.
1.7 How can families reduce the risk of exposure to dichlorobenzidine?
If your doctor finds that you have been exposed to significant amounts of 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine, ask your doctor if children may also be exposed. When necessary your doctor may need to ask your state Department of Public Health to investigate.
3,3'-Dichlorobenzidine has no agricultural or food chemical uses, so exposure to it by eating contaminated food is not likely. It is sometimes possible to carry 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine from work on your clothing, skin, hair, tools, or other objects removed from the workplace. This has happened in factories that produce 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine. In this way, you may contaminate your car, home, or other locations outside work where children might be exposed to 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine. You should know about this possibility if you work with 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine.
Your occupational health and safety officer at work can and should tell you whether chemicals you work with are dangerous and likely to be carried home on your clothes, body, or tools. Ask if you should shower and change clothes before you leave work, store your street clothes in a separate area of the workplace, or launder your work clothes at home separately from other clothes. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs) for many chemicals used at your place of work. MSDS information should include chemical names and hazardous ingredients, and important information such as fire and explosion data, potential health effects, how you get the chemical(s) in your body, how to properly handle the materials, and what to do in the case of emergencies. Your employer is legally responsible for providing a safe workplace and should freely answer your questions about hazardous chemicals. U.S. OSHA or your state OSHA-approved occupational safety and health program can answer any further questions and help your employer identify and correct problems with hazardous substances. OSHA or your state OSHA-approved occupational safety and health program will listen to your formal complaints about workplace health hazards and inspect your workplace when necessary. Employees have a right to seek safety and health on the job without fear of punishment.
1.8 Is there a medical test to determine whether I have been exposed to dichlorobenzidine?
Exposure to 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine can be determined by finding the chemical or its metabolites in urine. The test is not commonly available to the general population, but it is available to workers who may be exposed to potentially hazardous levels of the chemical in the workplace (for example, by careless handling or accidental spills). The test is accurate and provides evidence that exposure has occurred. However, since 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine does not remain long in the body, the test must be performed very soon after the possible exposure. Also, measured urine levels of 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine or its metabolites do not tell you whether it will affect your health.
1.9 What recommendations has the federal government made to protect human health?
Federal agencies that develop regulations for toxic substances include the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Recommendations provide valuable guidelines to protect public health but cannot be enforced by law. Federal organizations that develop recommendations for toxic substances include the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH).
Regulations and recommendations can be expressed in not-to-exceed levels in air, water, soil, or food that are usually based on levels that affect animals; then they are adjusted to help protect people. Sometimes these not-to-exceed levels differ among federal organizations because of different exposure times (an 8-hour workday or a 24-hour day), the use of different animal studies, or other factors.
Recommendations and regulations are also periodically updated as more information becomes available. For the most current information, check with the federal agency or organization that provides it. Some regulations and recommendations for 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine include the following:
EPA has determined that 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine is a "probable human carcinogen" and has placed several limits on the chemical in the environment to protect human health. Under the Clean Water Act of 1977, EPA controls discharges of 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine to industrial waste waters. The agency has listed 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine as a hazardous waste and requires that any spill of one pound or more be reported to the National Response Center.
Although the FDA has classified 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine as a carcinogen, no regulatory guidelines have been enacted. The FDA has concluded that the food supply is not in danger from 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine.
3,3'-Dichlorobenzidine is one of a number of compounds regulated by OSHA. To control exposures to 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine in workplace air and to protect the health of workers, OSHA's regulatory standards provide strict guidelines for handling, using, and storing the compound. They also include the requirements for personal protective equipment, training, labeling, and posting and engineering controls. OSHA also requires that initial medical screening and regular medical examinations be made available to any employee who is exposed to 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine at potentially hazardous levels.
NIOSH considers 3,3'-dichlorobenzidine a "potential occupational carcinogen" and recommends workplace practices and controls to reduce exposures to the lowest possible level. NIOSH defines potential occupational carcinogens as substances which may cause an increased incidence of benign and/or malignant neoplasm, or a substantial decrease in the latency period between exposure and onset of neoplasms in humans.

The nv Vemu, founded on April 17, 1990 and located in Kampenhout, rents real estate from their own portfolio. In 1990 Vemu focussed on acquisition, renovation and rental of 3 student houses in the Louvain area. This was the start of a branch in real estate within the professionnal activities of the Verhoeven family. Due to our adequate know-how in the construction sector, we were able to fulfil such projects and put added value to the final result.
Since a reorganization within the company patrimonium of the Verhoeven family in august 2007, we also added 2 office buildings to our portfolio. These buildings are ready for use, whether or not rented in modules. We have two real estate agents taking care to expand our activities in this matter.
We also offer our tenants a fast service for maintenance and repairs, management of communal costs. In this way the renter can focus completely on its activities. The administration here is simple and transparant.
With the reorganization Sven and David Verhoeven will continue to develop these activities.
In the future we will probably acquire more premises in the region, which will join our phylosophie: a premise with a lot of renovation, which in our view can be prepared to a decent, ready for use office building or student house.With our sister company Isolatie Verhoeven nv the know-how is within our reach.
