Upgrading WordPress to 2.6.1 – The Sequel (and conclusion)
Image via Wikipedia Notes from my fun and games with WordPress on Debian/etch ……
OK – so from my earlier post, I was having trouble upgrading WordPress on my main server. Having tried to blag my way through using the WordPress Automatic Upgrade plugin – and failed – I turned to the docs on the WordPress site.
Deep breath and go slowly. Most importantly, I backed up the existing WordPress main directory. I just copied it over on the same server as follows :
cd /usr/share
mkdir wordpressold
cp -r wordpress/ wordpressold
This copies the entire wordpress directory structure into the wordpressold directory (i.e. the copy is at /usr/share/wordpressold/wordpress/). You can check the copy is the same as the old one by running diff (I imagine) or, as I did, by comparing the disk usage of both directories:
du -h wordpress/
du -h wordpressold/
Both came out as 11M (the -h tag tells du to give you 'human-readable' output – bits and bytes !) so I assumed all was well. I also backed up the MySQL instance using the MySQL GUI Tools (MySQL Administrator). Its a breeze so I highly recommend them – get them from the MySQL site.
I then took a breath and deleted the original wordpress directory:
rm -dR wordpress/
Gone. Now to upload the entire wordpress/ directory from my Mac using SFTP within Cyberduck. Done in 5 minutes. I was a bit worried when the size was reported as only 4.3MB but I assumed all was well. I copied the original config over from the wordpressold/wordpress/wp-config.php file to the new directory. [Note: as a Debian user, the WordPress config is actually stored in /etc/wordpress and referenced by the wp-config.php file. Its important to keep this file – wp-config.php – somewhere so it can be copied back. Its a relatively neat way to remove the actual configuration – database credentials etc. – from the main wordpress directory and keep them in the /etc/ location].
cp /usr/share/wordpressold/wordpress/wp-config.php /usr/share/wordpress/
I then pointed to the site, got a brand new themed login form. I logged in and was automatically directed to the Upgrade process. Completed in seconds and all was well.
Phew !
Now off to see if the plugins work on the new version.

My number-one complaint with the online job process is that rarely do you hear much from the companies you apply to.
Last month I wrote about my experience with the 21st century job search process, submitting résumés and cover letters online in response to open positions posted by employers on a variety of web sites. I'd like to say that this process paid off for me—but, in fact, it didn't. I had three in-person interviews, and each of them was the result of knowing someone who helped grease the skids (and bypass the "applicant tracking systems," which weed out a lot of résumés before any human eyes look at them). At least for someone like me, the brave new world of online job search hasn't worked very well.
There are lots of programming jobs out there. I was quickly astounded, that even if I only looked at jobs posted in the past 24 hours, there were lots of them within 100 miles of my home (most of them in San Francisco, of course). The closest to my home in Sebastopol, though, were at two companies: Calix and Ciena in Petaluma. Although I applied for senior technical positions at both companies, I never heard a peep from them. My number-one complaint with the online job process is that rarely do you hear much from the companies you apply to. The best you can hope for is a generic "We received your application" email, and even that isn't guaranteed. Sometimes it's just radio silence.
As a former job applicant, here's what I'd like to see: First, an email response when the application is received. Second, if the applicant tracking system rejects your application after scanning your résumé, at least let the applicant know. If you make it past that point, then it would be nice to receive some notification if you fail to make the next cut (usually a phone interview). Basically, when an application goes into the reject pile, you should let the applicant know. You'd think that automated systems would make this easy, but it doesn't seem to have made much improvement.
I spent a fair amount of effort writing a cover letter for each application I submitted. The idea is that a cover letter lets you pitch your particular strengths for a specific position (even though I already had two separate résumés, one for programming and one for management). That effort is wasted if human eyes never see it. The postings where there wasn't even an opportunity to provide a cover letter seemed more honest—they really just care about the keywords you represent and not about the person (and experience) behind them.
The fact is, employers don't care what happens to the rejects (and, from a strictly economic point of view, that's probably the best approach: Why spend any effort on communicating with rejects?). They also don't care if they miss good—possibly excellent—hires due to their application process, as long as they don't hire people who don't work out. Most companies (at least from their postings) try to fill a slot ("you must have three years of experience with X, and five years with Y"), rather than search for people who can drive their business forward, as more than just cogs in the machine. Sure, specific skills are important, but candidly, most software development tasks are remarkably similar, and a strong performer will learn quickly.
I guess I'm just irritated that job applicants (including me) never find out why they didn't make the cut and get an interview. And again, it's not in the employer's best interest to say. Perhaps they (or the screening software) just look at my 1978 college graduation date and say, "too old," or "too expensive" (although I never even mentioned what I made or what my salary expectations might be). In fact, I just read that putting your year of graduation on your résumé is a bad idea, for exactly this reason. Next time, I'll know better.
Maybe it's all just sour grapes on my part: You kids get off my lawn! I like to think that I still have a lot to contribute to an organization. I'd love to work for a startup again: Even though it's a great way to get burned when options turn to dust, there's little to match the exhilaration of knowing that each day the work you do has a real impact. To my mind, there has to be a better way of matching people and jobs. It's a complicated calculus for employers—make the job seem too attractive, or easy to get hired, and you're overwhelmed with applicants. But if you don't get enough applicants, you may not fill the position. Either way, both employers and job seekers lose.
The good news (for me, at least) is that one of my interviews led to a job offer, and I'm once again gainfully employed, now as a senior programmer for a company which develops "massively multiplayer online role-playing games," or MMORPGs. I spent 10 years in the gaming business between 1986 and 1997; 30 years later, I've come full circle. And the guy I now work for used to work for me (and got me the interview). It's a small world after all.

Hello everyone,
As we all know it's FRIDAY and here that means it's Feature and Follow time. Feature and follow for those who don't know (have you been living under a rock?) is a weekly meme hosted by the lovely folk at Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. It is a great way for all us bloggers and readers to get connected by answering one simple question every week. It allows you to see a little more inside my head...though why you'd want to is beyond me, it's a little weird and kinda noisy in there...some places are also a little dusty too...but that's normal...right? Anyway, let's get on with the show!
Today, we're being asked to:
Share your favourite literary quote!
Ok, yep I know this. Actually I'm going to cheat a little and do one profound quote and one funny quote. See if you can guess who they're from and I'll let you know in the comments if you're right :)
First off we have our more serious quote:
"Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book."And now for the funny one. This does not some me up in any way what so ever...nope...not one bit. It's from one of my favourite characters...gold star to anyone who can guess who :)
"Paranoid? Probably. But just because you're paranoid doesn't mean there isn't an invisible demon about to eat your face."Ok then folks, that's me done for this round. Don't forget to enter my 2 year Blogoversary giveaway. There's a link over there ----> somewhere, only a day or so left to enter. Do it. Do it now ;)
Enjoy your weekend everyone!
Over and out!

Lobster Motoyaki
In the picture: Lobster motoyaki is served with a salad with arugula, mandarin oranges and candied walnuts with a simple vinaigrette dressing.
Our FISH variation of the famous oyster motoyaki… great dish for entertaining or for a special date at home. – Jen
Serves 2
- 1 live lobster (1.5lb – 2lb each)
- 1.5 tbsp butter
- 1 cup diced onions
- 1 cup diced white mushrooms
- 1/3 bottle of Kewpie Mayonnaise (Japanese mayo)
- 1 egg yolk
- 1 tbsp brown miso
- 1 tbsp sugar
- pinch of cayenne pepper
- chopped parsley & freshly squeezed lemon juice for garnish
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Place lobster into the pot and cook for 10 minutes. Then remove them from the boiling water, and cool in cold icy water to stop it from cooking. Allow for 10 minutes to cool.
- On a large cutting board, cut the lobster in half lengthwise and discard the dark sac behind the eyes. Next, pull out the string-like intestine from the tail. Rinse the lobster free of innards and wipe it dry. Remove lobster meat and cut into bite-sized pieces.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. While waiting for the oven to preheat, melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir in onions and mushrooms and cook until onions are translucent and mushrooms have softened. Stir lobster meat into the onion/mushroom mixture and divide it evenly between the shells.
- Combine mayo, egg yolk, miso, sugar, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Pour mixture over stuffed lobster shells and bake for 20 minutes. Garnish lobster with chopped parsley and lemon juice.

Bienvenue! Welcome to the French Department. We aim to:offer pupils the opportunity to learn French in a positive and interactive atmosphere, encouraging positive attitudes to language learning and to speakers of French. We seek to promote a supportive approach to other cultures and civilisations. We aim to develop students' understanding of themselves and their own culture.
Key Stage 3
In Year 7 pupils learn to talk and write about themselves, their friends and their family, leisure activities, where they live, the time, school, the weather, holidays and snacks.
In Year 8 they study daily routine, parts of the body and illness, food and shopping, Paris and activity holidays.
In Year 9 pupils will learn about regions of France, home life, places around the town, staying healthy, fashion, music and TV programmes.
Pupils learn by using four key language skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing. Students will also translate to and from French. They will also be building up their grammatical skills, throughout the years. They will also build up a repertoire of vocabulary.
In Year 7 students are expected to spend around half an hour on their homework and by Year 9 they should be spending about 45 minutes on it. If students have any problems with homework they should speak to their teacher, to Mrs Fitzsimons (Head of French), or attend the French Clinic which is held in St Joe's every Monday lunchtime.
To reinforce their learning, Y7 and Y9 students are given the opportunity to watch a French play during the year, presented by a touring theatre company. They study a scene from it the lesson before they see the play, to aid their understanding. This is usually a really enjoyable, funny and entertaining experience for students. They are often surprised at how much French they already understand.
In Yr 8 students take part in the MFL Fun Day, where they participate in a carousel of activities to promote language learning.
Useful websites for KS3 include:
Key Stage 4
Our students followthe new Pearson Edexcel French 1FR0 specification.
Click here to see full exam board details of this qualification
Students will take exams in Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing at the end of the two year course. Each skill is worth 25% of the total marks. Students will do the speaking exam with their teacher, but Pearson will mark them and all the other skills will be set and marked by Pearson. Students will be entered for one single tier across all four skills.
We would expect Year 10 and 11 students to spend around two hours a week doing homework. If students have any problems with homework they should speak to their teacher, to Mrs Fitzsimons (Head of French), or attend the French Clinic which is held in St Joe's every Monday lunchtime. Students may also borrow books from the Library to help improve their literacy in French.
Useful KS4 website inlude:
Key Stage 5
Students are working towards the A Level exam, which will take place at the end of the two year course. We are following the Pearson Edexcel 9FRO specification.
Click here to see full exam board details of this qualification
Students will be examined on listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. They will translate into and out of French. They will be examined on key literary texts. They will also do an independent research presentation as part of their Speaking exam.
Students should spend between three and four hours a week doing homework. They should do as much independent study as possible, including recommended websites. If they need any advice and help with this, they should speak to Mrs Fitzsimons. Attending French films and/or plays (at the Institut Français, for example) would also prove very beneficial.
We often ask our Sixth Form students to help younger students with their work, as this often reinforces their own understanding. We also encourage them to take on the role of French prefect and promote French throughout the school.
Useful KS5 websites include:
Opportunities for French beyond Loreto
By studying a MFL at A Level, students should have equipped themselves with transferable skills such as autonomy, resourcefulness, creativity, critical thinking, and linguistic, cultural and cognitive flexibility that will enable them to proceed to further study or employment, develop their capacity for critical and analytical thinking through the language of study and develop as independent researchers through the language of study.
Students may also go on to study a course such as French and French with Law at university.

Crews Rescue Student Who Fell Through Ice in Cromwell
A student from a Cromwell center for children with intellectual disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, and psychiatric disorders fell through the ice and had to be rescued this morning, according to Cromwell police.
Police said they received a 911 call at 9:41 a.m. about a student at Adelbrook standing on the ice in the middle of a pond near the school, so police and firefighters responded.
The staff followed protocol when the student became upset during class and did not use their hands, the CEO of Adelbrook said. Then the student went down the hill and about 25 feet out on to the icy pond, which students are told not to go into.
The latest news from across the state
As officers at the scene tried to talk to the student and have him walk toward them, the ice broke and the student fell into the water, chest deep, police said.
The officers threw a rope and tried to pull the student to shore, but the boy was unable to hold onto it, so Jeremy Hiriak, a member of the Cromwell Fire Department, put in a cold water suit, crawled out on the ice and officers pulled both of them to shore.
Police said the student was submerged chest deep for less than three minutes and was not injured during, but was transported to Middlesex Hospital to be evaluated.

I'd like to think that the Nuage Remixes from Blu Mar Ten, The Levels, Bop and Nuage, for the Prints of You, will ensure eargasm
Nuage – Colors (Blu Mar Ten Remix)
First up on the agenda is the Blu Mar Ten remix of Colors, a rushing roller injected with plenty of the BMT's, deep bassline brush work.
Nuage – Waterfalls (Nuage Remix)
Blissful chimes and crunchy shuffling drum patterns flow through this piece of ear medicine. Nuage makes some magic through sample laying and ensures all is underpinned by a deep down bassline.
Nuage – Overseas (Bop Remix)
Bop on the remix of Overseas is a joy. Classic Bop glitch and bass work makes for a sublime experience.
Nuage – Shining (The Levels)
The Levels remix of Shining features undulating synth and a pure appreciate for the Veronique J vocal musings. Beatification!

Turning 2!
So, Bess' Bag officially turned 2 years young on Feb. 15th, and today, well, it's officially March 10th… Yep, I totally missed the official-ness of the actual blogoversary date {which caused me great angst}, but I finally have a few hours today to celebrate!
Who can believe 2 years have passed from the start of this unexpected journey? I can remember my green-ness at the start of the blog {when I had only just stumbled upon the blog scene by mere accident} – perhaps I'm still pretty green… but really all I want to do is share some ideas, showcase modesty, rant & rave on occasion {okay, maybe more than occasionally}, & share the love of God through my perfect Savior Jesus. That last one is the most important. What can I say? As always I'm striving to be a girl after God's heart. Thanks for being a reader, Gal Pal, sister-in-Christ, passerby, etc.
Happy Blogoversary,
B.B. Founder {I love how that looks} =)
A lot's happened over these 2 years together. Let's take a look…

Customers shopping at one of the 8 supermarkets retailing Carrefour Products in Malta were enticed to take Shelfies (a selfie in front of a Carrefour products shelf) and upload these to social media, to enter with a chance of winning a €200 shopping spree each week.
The participating supermarkets included Trolees Supermarket (Qawra), GS superstore (Naxxar), Shopwise Discount Store (Qormi), Shoppers Discount Supermarket (Mellieha), Lasco Supermarket (Zejtun), Tower Supermarket (Sliema) and Park Towers Supermarkets (Sta. Venera and St. Julian's).
A whopping total of 80 shelfies were submitted in the competition and eight winners were announced each week, selected through a Facebook contest.
The 7th prize of the competition, a €200 voucher, was donated to the Ursuline Children's Crèche in Tarxien.
Commenting, Mario Vella from Retail Marketing Ltd, said "We believe that such trans-media competitions encourage engagement between shopping trips and social media engagement.

These Celebrities Made Cameo Appearances As Themselves In Video Games
Celebrities appearing in video games isn't a new phenomenon.
Generally, however, actors and musicians tend to voice fictional characters but, on very rare occasions, they will make cameos as themselves.
From The Sims to Grand Theft Auto and more, there are some real hidden gems out there that we had no idea about!
Here are 15 of the best and weirdest video game cameos by celebrities…
1) Snoop Dogg
Snoop Dogg went full on gangster when he made an appearance in True Crime: Streets of LA.
2) Mike Tyson
The boxing superstar was one of the first celebrity cameo appearances in a video game, taking his place as the final boss, fittingly, in Mike Tyson's Punch Out! on Nintendo.
3) Cameron Diaz
The world famous actress appeared as herself in The Sims: Superstar.
4) Gary Coleman
What you talking about Willis? Well, the late child star showed up in Postal 2, while wearing a Scarface style suit and packing an assault rifle, for some reason.
5) Phil Collins
That's right, the Genesis drummer could feel it in the air tonight when he popped up in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories.
6) Johnny Cash
The late singer showed up in Guitar Hero 5, playing his classic track 'Ring of Fire'.
7) Shaquille O'Neal
Shaq has obviously appeared in a myriad of basketball games but, as a well known fan of mixed martial arts, he also managed to bag himself a cameo in UFC Undisputed 2010 as a playable fighter.
8) Christina Aguilera
The singer was one of many celebrities who appeared as themselves in The Sims: Superstar.
9) Ricky Gervais
The comedian actually popped up in Grand Theft Auto IV, believe it or not, doing a set at the comedy club in Liberty City.
10) David Bowie
The British pop icon actually appeared as a Lego version of himself in LEGO Rock Band.
11) Carmen Electra
The model and actress showed off her fighting skills in Def Jam: Fight For NY.
12) Gene Simmons
The entirety of KISS actually appeared in Tony Hawk's Underground, but only Gene had playable moves. It's almost as if he's got a massive ego or something…
13) Hugh Hefner
Playboy: The Mansion would have been a bit pointless if Heffner himself hadn't made an appearance!
14) Avril Lavigne
It was complicated (not really) when Avril made an appearance as herself in The Sims: Superstar.
15) Steven Tyler
The Aerosmith frontman has appeared in a heck of a lot of video games in his time, even as far back as 1994 when he made a cameo in Revolution X.

MP3: Starfucker - "Julius" & "Bury Us Alive"
FCC-unfriendly Portland electronica quartet Starfucker, after a couple name changes and some label switching, have signed to Polyvinyl and are back with a new album, Reptilians, in the works for March 8. They've offered up two salty-sweet new songs for your listening pleasure while you wait.
Knife-sharp synth drones buzz and fuzz over super-sweet keyboard and glockenspiel on "Bury Us Alive," a song that sounds absolutely the opposite of its title (something with the words "sunshine" and "rave" might have been more appropriate to the general vibe). "Julius" is a song a little too melancholy for the club, but those electronic waterfalls are irresistible, and that pulsing backbeat makes the whole thing a guaranteed head-nodder, something drunk kids will close their eyes and sway to at shows. Check out both tunes and keep your ears peeled for the record.

Morning everyone! This post will have to be a bit rushed (it's that kind of day).
After tasting the incredible avo-coco soup at Caravan on Monday night, I decided I had to re-create it for myself at home this week. Last night was my first attempt, and it was a huge success! This soup is unbelievably thick, creamy, and delicious. Best of all, it's also really fast. Here's the recipe:
Avo-Coco Soup
1 avocado, quartered
Meat of 2 young coconuts
1 – 1 ¼ cup coconut water
Sea salt to taste
Sprinkle stevia
Mix all ingredients, minus water, together in a high power blender. Add ¾ cup coconut water and start blending. Keep adding water until soup reaches the consistency you like: I like it really thick and creamy!
This soup is extremely rich: all the healthy fats and fresh enzymes will fill you up quickly. So I recommend a smaller portion alongside a big salad, which is just what I had. Here's the meal from above:
And a close up of my salad, which was spinach and mesclun greens, avocado, tomatoes, and my favorite: sunflower sprouts:
In other news, I got a nice surprise at the office yesterday. The people at NuNaturals were kind enough to send me not only samples of their latest stevia products, but two fresh vanilla beans! I'm excited to try these samples of both liquid and solid stevia powder, especially since the liquid varieties include two that are alcohol free and 100% pure stevia (I don't generally love using stevia brands that include alcohol derivatives or maltodextrin). Thanks so much, NuNaturals!
And finally: today is my one month blogiversary!! I can't believe it's already been a month. In honor of the day, I invite you all to give me feedback! How am I doing? And what would you like to see more of? I plan to share the following in the next few months and weeks:
● Grocery lists and tips shopping
● More tips on meal planning and busy days
● Dehydrator recipes (soon! I promise!)
Anything else on your mind? Recipes? Advice? Health issues you'd like me to talk about? Let me know.
Have a great Friday.

Here is a trio of thoughts from the book of Job:
1) What Job feared most happened to him. The enemy (that is Satan, the devil) knew Job's fears and exploited them. Although everyone fears something, we are best advised to turn our fears over to God and not dwell on them.
2) Job believed that through good behavior he deserved God's blessings. Things are not any different today. The common belief is that we can earn God's love and attention. Of course, the converse of that is rejected; people assume that bad behavior should be forgiven, not punished. The right motivation for good behavior is simply out of respect for God and to honor him, not to earn something in return.
3) When Job had nothing left to say that is when God spoke. It is hard for us to listen when we are talking; it is no different in our relationship with God. When you pray do you spend more time talking or listening?
[Job 3:25, Job 30:25-26, Job 38:1]

No, sadly, our bags are not for sale yet. I've been updating the shop page on our website, however, and thought I'd share the brainstorming process. I needed a way to organize the collection on the shop page and came up with the above four categories.
There are two types of shoppers, shoppers who go by the look first, and then contemplate utility as an afterthought, and shoppers who go by use first, and then consider aesthetic appeal. The Taryn Zhang woman looks at use first, so I figure that's how I'd organize the shop page. You select the category per your needs, and then browse the applicable handbags for the one that suits you best, in form and function.
Now there was quite a bit of digital meddling in those pics, the most obvious one being the "corporate conservative" image, which is all sorts of symbolic.
I might switch out the "creative professional" image for another, even though I love the above photo of Teresa. When working on the images, in that photo I initially saw "very cool chic" and "bright colors." That's why I used it. The photo perfectly captured the essence of "creative professional" for me. But several male friends and colleagues saw that same photo and instantly zoned in on the boobs. They alerted me to this…this natural emphasis…and now whenever I look at that image, that's all I see too! Arrgh.
The pic of Carolina at left is the original photo we took, cropped. The pic at right is the one we digitally altered so that she could go from outdoor to indoor. How much fun is that! Plus, the indoor pic captures the essence of "casual professional" way better than the original outdoor pic.
Spot the differences between the two pics above. Here, Heidi is "driving" the Porsche Turbo Cabriolet with the Taryn Zhang Peripatetic in pink sitting shotgun. To shoot the original, the passenger door was open so that the photograph could be taken, but that means the overhead light is on. I had to figure out some way to turn that light "off." Also, I got rid of the no-smoking-airbags tag from the sun shade flap thingie. Finally, behind Heidi is a blue wall, and in the original you can see the seam where two blocks of the blue concrete come together. It's gone in the altered pic at right, so that the blue can somewhat pass as blue sky.
Now the hard part: Figuring out that whole shopping cart function. I prefer to be hands-on and do things myself…until I confront the realization that I'm grappling with something beyond my skills and capabilities, and that's when we start hunting for help. So at this point, I'm still DIY-ing the shopping cart thing, but it's going way over my head. May need help soon. =/
By the way, our official debut collection lookbook is also complete. Yay! Thank you, Yuna Oh, for designing it.
I've been MIA on this blog and took a brief hiatus from TZ work due to a sudden overload at the day job. This is the first weekend in a long time both Hubby and I are free. Another magazine has graciously shown their support for us by picking up a story on our company, and are requesting photos. So I may make Hubby dress up again for yet another impromptu photo shoot. Oh, you know how he loves that.
A while back I managed to convince him to pose for the camera. He's usually so reluctant. One photo and that was all I would get, he said. I better make it count, because he didn't want to do it again. Hubby's camera shy. =)
The image at left above is a hastily-drawn thumbnail sketch of the portrait I wanted for the pic. The sketch itself was on a scrap piece of paper done in ballpoint pen, just to show Hubby.
"Where and how do you plan on taking that?" He asked.
"I don't know."
He sighed, but then said fine, he'd figure it out. Hubby's got a pretty good eye and did such a great job with it, and mind you he only had the thumbnail sketch at left above to go by, that I had to post the before and after side by side for comparison. He mounted our camera on a tripod and that's how this photo was taken. Not bad for two inexperienced people who have no idea what they're doing!
As for production…
If there's one thing I've learned this year re: this business, it's to multiply whatever estimate or projection you've got by 3 and that multiplied number will be closer to reality. And I don't set unreasonable ridiculous goals, by the way. I sensibly project what I think it'll take, but then what ends up happening is that projection times 3. So there's something to look out for, those of you who want to start in this line of business. Entrepreneurship is not for the faint of heart.
Oh, and for those who complain that I never do outfit posts… as you can see it's because I'm never wearing remarkable outfits to post about. Will nevertheless carpe this opportunity do report on the OOTD.
Anatomy of this outfit:
- Shirt: Belldini
- Skirt: Tahari by Arthur S. Levine
- Handbag: Executive by Taryn Zhang
- Shoes: DKNYC
And all the jewelry is sentimental. The pearl necklace is from my mother. The jade ring on my right hand is from my mother-in-law. The gold ring on my left is from my grandmother. Oh, and the color of my contacts and nail polish match! Isn't that nifty?
On Hubby: Pierre Cardin shirt (that should have been ironed!) and tailor-made suit pants.

Have you ever compared yourself to someone else, only to end up feeling totally rubbish? Suddenly you feel like a gremlin standing next to a princess, when you're simply hanging out with your best friend.
Many years ago, I suffered an outbreak of acne all over my face. It lasted for several months and was very noticeable. I was incredibly self-conscious, and would feel envious whenever I was around anyone with a clear complexion. It seemed like everyone else had perfect skin compared to mine, and all I wanted was for my face to go back to normal.
Have you ever felt something similar? The temptation to compare ourselves to other girls is all around us, especially with the world of Instagram and Snapchat at our fingertips. In these moments, we can often feel like our own looks just don't measure up!
Theodore Roosevelt once said that comparison is the thief of joy, and it couldn't be more true. So how can we avoid comparing ourselves all the time?
One of the best things to do is learn the truth about ourselves.
Did you know that, according to the Bible, each of us is fearfully and wonderfully made? The word 'fearfully' means to be breathtaking or awesome. You were made to be absolutely incredible. And the word 'wonderfully' means to be unique. You're completely distinct in your characteristics. You weren't made to be quite like anybody else. I find it fascinating that no two people have ever had the exact same set of DNA, or the same fingerprint. Isn't that amazing? That means there isn't, and there never has been, anybody quite the same as you.
You weren't designed to look like Kylie Jenner, because then you would be without your lovely eyes and your smile that lights up the room. You weren't given the charm of Emma Watson, because then you wouldn't grace the world with your wonderful personality and presence that is unique to you.
The truth is, you were born to be beautiful! Each of us has something remarkable within us, although sometimes we aren't aware of it. You're wonderful just the way you are. Your beauty is found in the way you smile, the jokes you make, and passion with which you talk about the things you love. So, dear girl, don't ever wish you were anybody else, because the world wouldn't be the same without you!

TAM's patented headset with its in-ear acoustic microphone delivers 33 dB of passive noise reduction, enabling a speech signal that is very clear and highly intelligible in high noise and windy environments. The headset leverages the concept that when you speak, your speech travels back to your ear canal in addition to emanating from your mouth. TAM's headset then uses an in-ear acoustic microphone to capture the speaker's voice once it is transmitted back to the ear canal.

P&G Proud Sponsor of Moms
Procter & Gamble is running a "Thanks, Mom" campaign as part of their sponsorship of the USA Olympics team at Vancouver 2010. The advertising campaign highlights the role of mothers and provides them help with travel expenses. The campaign adds to its earlier support of the team with sponsorship dollars, a Vancouver family meeting place and advertising deals with such stars as skier Lindsey Vonn and speedskater Apolo Anton Ohno. The television and online commercials can be found on the Thanks Mom YouTube channel. Here's the best of the bunch. To their moms, Team USA athletes will always be kids…

Glass walls covered with colorful graphs and business models divided the teams as the members typed furiously on their computers, developing their solutions to one of six proposed healthcare problems.
Eighteen hours into the 24-hour event, participants scribbled on the walls with Expo markers as they refined their products, which addressed medical challenges such as managing patients at high risk for HIV and reducing readmission rates for patients with chronic kidney disease.
During the second annual Inventathon competition, students worked together to find solutions to unmet medical needs. The competition took place over the weekend at the California NanoSystems Institute at UCLA and was co-hosted by the UCLA Business of Science Center, UCLA Center for Advanced Surgical and Interventional Technology, UCLA Clinical and Translational Science Institute and the UCLA Center for Digital Behavior.
This year, the event had more than twice the number of participants it did previously, with a total of 175 individuals, or 38 teams. Participants included undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral students. Coordinators also wanted to focus more on mentorship this year by providing about 50 mentors from industries such as medicine, business and technology who could advise the participating teams on their projects.
"The challenge is really understanding the clinical need, rather than having a blurry vision of what the need is. So having the doctors here is a major help," said Dan Wilkinson, a participant and graduate student in the UCLA Materials Science and Engineering Department.
Sean Young, executive director of the UCLA Center for Digital Behavior, said he thinks students have an increased interest in creating medical technology because it is easier to build than it was before.
"Back when I was born, if you were building technology it took a lot of time, a lot of money, and it was difficult to do," Young said. "Now we have the ability to build technologies within 24 hours."
The purpose of creating the Inventathon was so all students – no matter what career aspirations they have – could still get involved in the competition, said Shyam Natarajan, co-founder of the Inventathon and assistant director of entrepreneurship at the UCLA Center for Advanced Surgical and Interventional Technology.
"It's a fun, free and easy way for people without any sort of background in medicine, design or entrepreneurship to come together and learn about the innovation process," Natarajan said.
As part of the competition, students can pitch ideas for any solution, ranging from an app, to a device, to a drawing, as long as it addresses one of the medical needs.
Daniel Yazdi, a second-year student at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine who was on the winning team last year, said he and his friends came to this year's competition to learn more about medical technologies.
"We really came into this competition not with the goal of winning, but we wanted to learn something new," Yazdi said, "(I'm) restrengthening (concepts) I learned as an undergrad and reapplying them to novel approaches."
Yazdi won first place in the Inventathon again this year with a different team, using a device that measures abnormal brain signals to more easily monitor chronic kidney disease.
Bhavik Merchant, a fourth-year business economics student who was on the winning team last year, said he liked the Inventathon more than normal hackathons because it focused on specific problems.
"The Inventathon focuses on how to get products to patients," Merchant said. "And it's a lot more fun," he added, smiling.
Yazdi's team spent until midnight brainstorming and reading literature in order to create a viable product. In the 24-hour competition, he got just 10 minutes of sleep.
After last year's Inventathon, the winning team used the office space it won to work on its lung cancer device and make connections with industry professionals.
Although not every team wins a prize, participants may gain valuable experience by learning to generate solutions under time pressures, a trait that's necessary to combat any medical crisis, Young said.
"It's only something like this, where you have a collaborative environment with multiple different types of expertise that you can find a solution in a short time frame," Young said.
Daniel Margolis, an associate professor of radiology and one of the Inventathon mentors, said he thinks students gain valuable lessons from the Inventathon that may help them in their future careers.
"I think that the participation in and of itself is far more valuable than whether or not you win," Margolis said, sitting in a room filled with countless caffeinated drinks and snacks for the participants. "It's inspiring to see the potential of the students at UCLA and what will be the future of health care."

Melania Trump Plans To Keep Michelle Obama's Vegetable Garden
First Lady Melania Trump plans to maintain the vegetable garden former First Lady Michelle Obama installed at the White House.
In a statement to CNN, Melania's senior adviser said:
"As a mother and as the First Lady of this country, Mrs. Trump is committed to the preservation and continuation of the White House Gardens, specifically the First Lady's Kitchen Garden and the Rose Garden."
On Saturday, Melania was touring the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens in Delray Beach, Florida, with Akie Abe, wife of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. She said in the statement:
"Both our countries histories and cultures are steeped in the nurture and nature of gardening. Having knowledge of different cultures and customs is a wonderful way to learn and to explore. Gardening teaches us the fundamentals in care and the evolution of living things, all while inspiring us to nurture our minds and to relax and strengthen our bodies."
I had no idea she was into gardening. She gave no clue about this during the campaign.

Let us know what you think we would love to hear from you.
Amazing support and spreadsheet!!
I have been using the easyauctiontracker for two years and could not live without it. It has made my bookkeeping for our eBay business so easy. Jen in support is amazing. She is always quick to respond to my inquiries. My PC crashed and she worked with me to retrieve my worksheet I could not have asked for a more patient and knowledgable support person. Thank you Jen!!
Easy to Use
Easy Auctions Tracker is an eBay seller's accounting dream! With a few clicks you can be looking at all your eBay sales data, costs and even keep track of your commissions.
Best for eBay Sellers
When I started selling on eBay full-time, I analyzed several different tracking systems, as well as using Quick Books or similar software.
Many were too complex and had too many options for a basic "one venue" eBay seller. This spreadsheet by far, will provide everything needed for an eBay seller to keep up with all sales details. My end of month is now a breeze compared to what it could be!!
Thank you Easy Auctions Tracker for this wonderful service to the eBay community!!
Best eBay Accounting Tool
This has got to be the BEST eBay accounting tool ever! I'm not the most computer literate guy around so I had several questions during my learning curve. Every question I sent in was answered quickly and in terms even I could understand and follow!
The consignment feature of the program is worth twice the price by itself!
Before discovering Easy Auctions Tracker, I went through 4 or 5 steps for each listing figuring expenses, profit margins, consignment fees, etc. Now it's just download, enter cost and shipping (or consignor info) and "PRESTO" it's done!
I don't know enough adjectives to describe how happy I am with Easy Auctions Tracker! THANK YOU!
Fast and Accurate
"I've been searching for a user friendly, FAST and ACCURATE way to do month end figures. Most importantly, something I can share with my subscribers that I personally love to use. This is not only perfect for the fellow eBayer, it's perfect for Trading Assistants as well.
Easy Auctions Tracker has by far outweighed any spreadsheet I've purchased or created in the past. I'm totally hooked. I LOVE IT
It will make your life so much easier. Thanks for your hard work!"

The taxman cometh
By B.J. Reyes
State Department of Taxation officials remind you that the deadline to file state income tax returns is Monday, April 20.
And taxpayers will have one less means of getting their returns in — the department no longer plans to offer curbside drop-off services after regular business hours for last-minute filers.
In a news release, the department says the action is being done "due to the significant decrease in the number of people using the service in prior years."
But procrastinators shouldn't fret (too much). Drop boxes will be available in front of the tax office building at 830 Punchbowl St., near the entrance to the building, and also on the adjacent Halekauwila Street entrance.
Tax returns will be considered filed on time if they are placed in the drop boxes by midnight, April 20.
For assistance on tax questions or filing state returns, taxpayers may call 587-4242 or toll free at (800) 587-1540.
The deadline to file federal tax returns is April 15.

The SJ Grand Wagoneer was the car to drive to the country club back in the day and you'll still see a surprising number used as vacation cars in the Hamptons. They offer almost as much prestige as a vintage Mercedes G-Class wagon, but with wood sides -- victory goes to the Wagoneer.
The seller has recently done some work on this beauty:
Here is a little history on the truck, motor was replaced 10,000 ago, transmission was just replaced last year with a transferable warranty. I have a three ring binder with all of the receipts the previous buyer had in addition to a few of the receipts from the owner prior to him. Since I have owned it I have replaced or fixed the following:Completely serviced the entire truck (fluids filters etc.)Rebuilt transmissionNew front and rear main seals and oil pan gasket.New StarterRebuilt the carburetorNew pinion on the rear axelReplaced the tailgate switch for the rear glass (now you can raise and lower the glass at the tailgate)New Interstate batteryNew switch on the driver's seat (controls the seat position)
It looks great on the inside and out in the pictures and the seller states that it is completely stock with an original color repaint that looks amazing. ...The wood paneling is perfect. Even the headliner is great. There is no RUST, the truck has spent its life in Oregon, Nevada and now Southern California. IF you are looking for a Wagoneer that is all sorted and ready to go this is it. Currently titled and smoged in California.
See a nicer way to start your wood sided car collection? email@example.com

The signatories to this Manifesto register their concern at the various pronouncements in favour of the regulation of surrogate maternity, or the practice of payment for use of a woman's womb by a third party. We call on political parties and national and regional governments to remain alert, and not to allow themselves to be deceived by overtly one-sided media campaigns, recalling that the desire for fatherhood/motherhood can never replace or violate the rights enjoyed by women and children. The desire to be a father or mother and the right of free choice do not entail any right to have children. We therefore register our absolute rejection of the use of "women's wombs for gestation on behalf of others", on the basis of the following reasons:
• Because we defend the right of women to decide as to sexual and reproductive rights. Surrogate maternity prevents the pregnant women from enjoying the right to decide during the process of gestation and thereafter as regards decisions concerning the upbringing, care and education of the child.
• Because choice entails a preference among a series of options in life. Choice is in turn accompanied by the capacity to alter, modify or vary the object of our preferences. Surrogate maternity not only prevents the women from exercising choice, but furthermore allows for punitive measures if they alter the conditions of the contract.
• Because so-called "surrogate maternity" corresponds to a type of practice that entails sexual control over women: while in traditional societies arranged marriages and dowries are the typical forms employed to exercise sexual control over women, in modern societies the prohibition of abortion, the regulation of prostitution and surrogate maternity are the clearest of such expressions.
• Because the renting of a woman's womb cannot be classified as an "assisted human reproduction technique". Women are not reproductive machines manufacturing children in the interests of breeding programmes. This is, instead, a clear example of extreme "obstetric violence".
• Because the "altruism and generosity" of the few does not prevent the commercialization, trafficking and farming of women for the purchase of a la carte pregnancies. The "altruism and generosity" of the pregnant woman often cited in order to validate the regularization of surrogacy, reinforces the deeply rooted definition of women inherent in religious beliefs as "beings existing for others", whose lot in life is to offer themselves in "service" to others. The fact is that this claimed "generosity", "altruism" and "consent" of a few serves simply as a smokescreen argument concealing the trade in wombs and the purchase of standardized babies according to a price list.
• Because when "altruistic" surrogate maternity is legalized, the commercial practice also increases. No type of regulation can guarantee that there will be no money or bribery involved in the process. No legalization can control the pressure exerted on pregnant women and the differing power relationship between the purchasers and the women for rent.
• Because we do not accept the neoliberal logic that aims to bring "wombs for rent" into the marketplace, as this feeds on the structural inequality of women to turn the practice into a business niche exposing women to reproductive trafficking.
• Because women cannot be rented or bought in whole or in part. Nor can so-called "surrogate maternity" be included, as some argue, within the context of "collaborative consumption and economy": the claimed "collaborative relationship" simply conceals "patriarchal consumption", by means of which women can be rented or bought in whole or in part.
• Because we are radically opposed to the use of euphemisms to prettify or idealize the business of buying and selling babies by means of temporarily renting a woman's womb, whether she lives in sun-kissed California or an impoverished backstreet in India. We therefore insist on calling things by their true name. One cannot and must not describe as "surrogate pregnancy" a social act that objectifies a woman's body and commercializes the desire to be a mother or father.
• Because the perspective of Human Rights requires the rejection of the idea that women can be used as vessels, and that their reproductive capacity can be bought. The right to the integrity of one's body cannot be made subject to any type of contract.
We therefore declare our opposition to any type of regulation regarding the use of women as "wombs for rent".

Our Stars of Ballet
Short Film (Full Length) – 1960 Documentary Dance
Our Stars of Ballet, a short documentary from ballet teacher turned NFU director Kathleen O'Brien, tracks the careers of New Zealand ballet icons Rowena Jackson and Alexander Grant, who both achieved success as principal dancers for major ballet companies in England. The film follows their visit to Wellington with the Royal Ballet in 1959; Jackson picnics by the harbour with dancer husband Philip Chatfield, while Grant visits Mt Victoria. The film ends with Jackson performing her famed multiple fouttés en tournant, for which she held the world record in 1959.
He would achieve world fame as the leading male character dancer of the Royal Ballet at Covent Garden. Funster, rogue, villain … and ballet dancer, he has had more leading roles created for him in the last ten years than any other male dancer in British ballet.– Narrator on Alexander Grant

I am not a fan of anything with milk. I blame it on a bad childhood experience (enough said). So when Christi showed up to our dinner party with Panna Cotta, I already knew there was no way the beautiful dessert was going to pass my lips. I mean look at some of the ingredients – skim milk and heavy cream – that was two strikes right there. But, Christi in her persuasiveness insisted the dessert was amazingly delicious. Against my better judgment and knowing I wouldn't like it, I took the tiniest of bites. "Yes, Christi…I WAS WRONG and YOU WERE RIGHT." No milky taste to the Panna Cotta at all – just a light and sweet fluffiness enhanced by a touch of honey and tangy berries.
Serve this elegant dessert as the final course to complement our rustic Italian holiday menu. It can be made in advance so you can actually enjoy an evening NOT spent entirely in the kitchen.
1/3 cup skim milk
1 (.25 ounce) envelope unflavored gelatin
2 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup white sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
fresh raspberries and blueberries
Pour milk into a small bowl and stir in the gelatin powder. Set aside.
In a saucepan, stir together the heavy cream and sugar, and place over medium heat. Bring cream and sugar to a boil, stirring slightly. Pour the gelatin and milk mixture into the cream, stirring thoroughly until completely dissolved. Cook for one minute or so, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla. Pour into 5 or 6 individual ramekin dishes.
Cool the ramekins, uncovered, at room temperature. When completely cool, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least four hours but, ideally, overnight before serving.
Just before serving, drizzle honey in a cross-pattern and top with fresh berries.
*Double the recipe to make 10-12 ramekins
