What It's Like to Die
Pictures from here.
Entertainment Weekly is going nuts over the Lost finale, understandably. But one of their obsessions is the long list of dead characters. They had many of the dead characters come back for photo-shoots and interviews. The photos were odd, I never really like seeing the actors all cleaned up and shiny, they just look strange. But some of the interviews were fun. For example there's a video of the actors talking about what it was like for them when they found out their characters were dying. You really feel bad for these people, and you can tell many of them are barely restraining their anger.
Check it out at ew.com.
(Frankly I don't think the Ethan guy has anything to complain about, he's been in almost every season since he's died.)

612 – Everybody Loves Hugo
I'm still reeling from everything that happened in this episode. I had to wait a day to write this post in the hopes that I would calm down a little (it didn't work).
So Ilana's dead. I didn't see that coming. In fact seconds before she died I assured my friends that she wouldn't die. It felt odd having the rug pulled out from under me like that. For the rest of the episode I was paranoid. I think the floodgates are opening, people are going to start dying, and quickly. It's a scary thought. As I said a few times during the episode, every thing's changed.
Back to the story. On the Island Hurley was struggling through leadership problems. He has no actual authority or even much of a plan, but he has unwarranted conviction. So far that's worked for him. Who knows where it's going to get him.
Desmond had a little fun with Locke on the Island. He was thrown down a well at the end of the episode, but I don't think many of us believe that he's actually dead. Vincent will find him and go get help.
Then there's that final scene. I don't even know what to say about that. It'll be up there as one of the most shocking moments in Lost history. It's one of those endings that causes a room to stay silent for minutes after the shows has ended.
I can see no reason why this episode shouldn't get a ten. We got a heartfelt apology from Michael, an answer to the Whispers mystery, Hurley and Libby got together, Hurley crossed over between timelines, Ilana died, "Locke" tried to kill Desmond and Desmond tried to kill Locke. I have a feeling that these episodes are just going to get more and more intense. If you were worried that the episodes weren't feeling "final" enough, well I think that's changed now. 10.0/10.0

Post 602, 602 thoughts and theories
OK. So I've given it a lot of thought and I've gone back and forth with many of you in the comments all the while forming new theories. So here goes nothing.
New Theory About Dying
I'd like to put forth this theory: once characters die in one of the timelines they become aware of the other timeline. This would explain Charlie thinking that he had to die and also Juliet knowing that "it worked". It doesn't really explain what happened to Sayid. I tend to think that possibly he died in the non-Island timelines, but that seems kinda crazy (maybe Arzt killed him in some sort of racially motivated rage, you saw that look he gave him).
Sub theory. I know I already said that this would explain Charlie thinking he had to die, but I might change that. In 2004 he isn't dead. So it'll take a while before he dies and his consciouses merge. The first person to die will be The Marshall, and then Boone soon after. This could be fun if I'm right. (I doubt the redshirts dying will make a difference to my theory.)
Who's Alive and Where
This is just a list of the people off the Island who are likely dead or alive. And just so you know, I'm staying spoiler free this year. So I know there are a lot of rumours going around about who's coming back and who isn't but let's not post those items here.
Season 6 Premiere Expectations
Let's all get our hopes up. Let's raise our expectations so high that the show will never be able to meet them. Yeah!
What Do You Want?
What do you want from the Season 6 premiere? Do you want a grand reunion episode? Do you want Jughead to reset the past? Or do you want it to simply cause a big explosion? Do you want the past to be ignored? Or do you want the story to pick up where it left off, with our 70s heroes standing around The Swan and our 07 heroes standing around the foot?
What I Want

Best Season 6 Poster
Best quality, that is. This was posted in a few places: DarkUFO, BuddyTV, and Doc Arzt.
Here are the changes that I noticed:
- They demoted a few of the girls, Libby and Charlotte seem to have undergone the most shrinkage
- They got rid of the hieroglyphics
- They moved Frank over to the left between Charlotte and Shannon
- A lot of the characters got changed
- And they threw Vincent in at the end, how nice of them
You know who hasn't been added? Walt. Apparently Vincent ranks higher than Walt.

I came across the idea of a Capsule Wardrobe over a year ago while scrolling mindlessly on Pinterest. I was fascinated by it and it really resonated with me. I started sifting through my closet and created my own capsule wardrobe.
My capsule lasted about 130 days and then I gave up. I started buying more clothes again, buying more and more and more and using purchases to bring me happiness. When you're buying something it always feels like it's going to change your life right? Like that dress would literally change everything?
I do believe that clothes can bring us a lot of joy, let us express ourselves creatively, and give us confidence. However, I'm tired of once again relying on that "CONFIRM PURCHASE" button and USPS tracking codes to bring me joy.
So... back into the capsule ya'll.
I'm working on putting a summery capsule wardrobe together. I'm trying to decide how long to commit to the capsule. My husband just took a pay cut at work for a position he really wanted so we are TIGHT on money for awhile. I need to say goodbye to emotional shopping sprees and hello to more time with those I love. I want to spend my money and time on more important things. Don't we all?
So shoot me your best tips on Capsule Wardrobes and how to spend less money on clothes! I really like buying stuff that is going to last, but sometimes a $10 tee just makes my heart pitter patter. I'm hoping to not buy anything additional to what is in my closet right now. It's tempting to spend money to start a capsule, but if anything, I might just buy some second hand stuff. That's pretty Capsule isn't it? That should totally be a saying.
That's SO Capsule!
Pressing onward. Capsule Wardrobe 2.0 here I come.

Oslo exchange buys Burgundy rival to boost Nordic appeal
Oslo Børs, the Norwegian stock exchange, is buying rival Burgundy to boost its pan-Nordic appeal, stem a sliding market share, and boost profit margins.
Oslo Børs, the Norwegian stock exchange, is buying rival Burgundy to boost its pan-Nordic appeal, stem a sliding market share, and boost profit margins.
Stockholm-based Burgundy is licensed as a multilateral trading facility (MTF), and offers trading in some 1,000 Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish and Danish shares, as well as warrants, ETFs and certificates.
Burgundy has 34 investment firms as members, of which 23 are members of Oslo Børs. Together as a single exchange the new business will be able to offer listing services for a number of types of securities and products, including ETFS, structured notes and warrants, while Oslo Børs sees a particular opportunity to increase the reach of its listing services for bonds and equities.
In order to maintain Burgundy's strenght in the Stockholm market, a new advisory board will be established, to facilitate day to day operations with an eye to the lower costs that are cited as a key reason for the deal.
Bertil Villard, chairman of the board of Burgundy, said: "Burgundy has been a key player in educating and transforming Nordic banks way of trading in the post-MIFID landscape. Scale and international distribution will be important ingredients in Burgundy's future development. The board has concluded that the best solution is to make this transaction with Oslo Børs, which has strategic interest in expanding their business in the Nordics and with whom the shareholders already have an existing long-term relationship."
As part of the changes, Burgundy will drop use of its current Cinnober trading platform in favour of Millenium Exchange, the trading platform used by Oslo Børs as part of its collaboration with the London Stock Exchange. Full migration to the new platform will take place during 2013.
(InvestmentEurope recently reported on the change of chief executive at Cinnober: http://www.investmenteurope.net/investment-europe/news/2214581/cinnober-agrees-tordable-exit-appoints-new-ceo )
Clearing and interoperability will continue to be offered by Burgundy via its existing clearing hosues EMCF, X-Clear and EuroCCP.

Nevermoor has been getting a lot of praise everywhere and I was really excited to read it. I got both the book and audiobook and I was prepared to dive into the newest great children's book. I'm a huge collector and reader of children's literature and I approached this book with an open mind, hoping to be transported and have all the good feelings that accompany the reading children's books. The first 100 pages were great! We get introduced to Morrigan Crow who is from this family of "Crows." Her father (Corvus) is the mayor, an influential politician, and kind of distanced from her as she is cursed. Everywhere she goes something bad happens. The world she is in "now" is not too developed or explained, we just get a sense that every once in a while a child is cursed and when they hit age 12 they die. Morrigan lives with the knowledge that she will die by 12. Knowing this, I kind of thought that maybe her family was distancing themselves from her so that they don't get attached because they know she will die. The suspense of it all is quite different than other books and I respect that there was more showing than explaining, and kind of action-packed. On the eve of her 11th birthday Morrigan finds that this was actually the day she's supposed to die, but gets approached by a man who purchases her at auction, named Jupiter North. He calls her Mog and saves her from her fate, takes her to Nevermoor, and enrolls her into a race/contest for children for her to earn the rights to stay in Nevermoor. Up until this point I can see many comparisons, as many have already mentioned, that Morrigan Crow is basically Harry Potter. She's mistreated in her previous life, she's a cursed/chosen one, and she enters a new magical realm with a guide/mentor. Once in Nevermoor the book turns into a hybrid of The Hunger Games, and The Goblet of Fire, where there are just countless contests where the children must "prove" themselves worthy of joining the Wundrous Society in Nevermoor. For Morrigan it's even more important because she's an 'illegal' and by winning she can get to stay in Nevermoor. I'm not going to say much more plot-wise. This is the general premise. It definitely has its strengths and its own spins. I enjoyed the diversity in this work. From the names one can tell that some characters come from different backgrounds. The language is elevated and certainly respects children's literacy skills, perhaps even presenting some challenges. I particularly enjoyed was finding out that Jupiter's "powers" are seeing things as they are …truly. He is sort of a magical version of Sherlock Holmes where he can look at something, observe it and truly know everything about it, and most importantly see its potential. Jupiter says:
"It's not a memory like yours or mine. It's more like…how shall I put this? There are…events and moments in the past that attach themselves to people and things, and cling to them through time simply because they have nowhere else to go. Maybe they eventually fade or get torn away or just die. But somethings never die—the especially good memories or the especially bad ones can hang around forever."
This concept was very creative and I really enjoyed it. However, I felt like on many levels it was extremely unfocused. It jumped from place to place, from character to character, from sequence to sequence, without allowing the reader to get acquainted with a place, or attached to a character. No concept, location, or character is fully developed and it made the story feel very wobbly. I felt like the author kept changing direction and pointing to something else every few sentences. It was as if the author tried to squeeze Harry Potter 1-5 in one book, told by Dr. Seuss, and then made a list of everything that sounded sort of cool and just threw them in fast without any time to process. The chandelier grows out in the shape of a ship like a tooth would, there's a vampire-dwarf, or dwarf-vampire and there's a difference, the concept of Morrigan being an 'illegal,' the random side characters thrown in, the umbrellas, the contest, what the actual Wundrous society is and what does it do, the children's auction, before she's about to die her step-mom mentioning she's pregnant like in a soap opera. Everything happened so fast that it felt rushed, and nothing is fully developed. The characters hardly had any depth. The 'bad' girl was just 'bad' and annoying. One Goodreads reviewer said that Townsend must have put all these fun facts or fun ideas in a hat and just pulled them out at random, and that it resembles Hotel Transylvania…and that's how I kind of felt reading this. There's no foundation, the place doesn't seem real or like it truly has a history. Jupiter North (despite the cool name) is a mash-up of Mary Poppins and Willy Wonka (Gene Wilder). He's even described to look a lot like Gene Wilder in the Willy Wonka role. I felt the presence of the author the whole time and it was very transparent what she was trying to do, and what previously existing stories she was trying to mesh together.
Saying all that, and how transparent it was to me as a long-time reader, and superfan of children's books…I don't know if a child would be able to see through that, or if they would thoroughly enjoy it. I don't believe children should be treated like they are not smart, or have short attention span, but if someone can't see through every plot incident and every character and be able to point out exactly what it reminds you of, maybe this could be really enjoyable….that said, I can't help but think of the C.S. Lewis line:
"A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children's story in the slightest."
Again, this novel was a mix and it had some pros and… it had some cons. I'd recommend trying it out because a MAJORITY of people seem to enjoy it, so clearly there's something to this book, even if I'm not capable of seeing it.

The verdict is in: Adele's James Bond theme is a hit.
When it premiered last week, my colleague Adam B. Vary declared "it does not disappoint," and it seems people agree. It's currently the #1 song on iTunes — not only in the United States but in many places all over the world.
It's no wonder, then, that it is featured in the newest Skyfall trailer. The clip is silent save for Adele's soulful voice as we once again see Daniel Craig's Bond getting shot from atop a train. We're also treated to quick actions shots of explosions, chases, a steamy shower scene and more 007 fun. Many of the quick cuts are recycled from the previous trailer, but Adele's song certainly gives them a new feeling.
Check it all out below:
Skyfall opens in the U.S. on Nov. 9.

How To Compose A Strong Essay On School Experience?
School students have many interesting experiences to share. They have spent lot of time with respected teachers, class mates and even non-teaching staff. They should compose strong essays sharing their experiences. Check this online site and read some wonderful articles, essays and academic content on school experience. Renew your old thoughts and get flavor by going through these masterpieces. An informative qualitative piece of content should be brilliantly equipped with a solid thesis statement in the introductory note, the precised body and the conclusion to complete the whole writing job perfectly.
Few Easy Tips for You
- Write an introduction with body of content and short conclusion
- Thesis statement is a must to compose the introductory section
- Use sub headings to reset the large body of content
Write the Introduction
In the introduction, a school student has to make bold attempt by exposing his inner thoughts. He has many secrets and comical elements to ventilate. Precisely, he needs to describe his school life. He should not make the first paragraph lengthy with fluffy details. Instead, he must have handful strategies to put focus on the central themes with some important facts to delineate using his own literary craftsmanship. This concise content should not have caboodle of poor expletives, examples and irrelevant sentences to swell up the introduction.
Precise the Body of Content
The body of the content restates points broadly. Facts which are concisely mentioned in the introduction must be well explained in this middle section. In case you are supposed to write an expository write-up on school experience, decorate the middle part of the content by citing examples with short descriptions. The body of the write-up needs to be reinforced by removing all grammatical mistakes and obsolete terms.
Conclusion – Must
The conclusion of the content is usually based on the thesis statement. In this last section, give your opinions by making a short summary about the themes explained in the introduction and the body of the content. However, as a writer, you should not do new research bringing more innovative issues to explain. The concluding part of the content must make a preview of the same facts which have already been highlighted earlier.
Lastly, the strong and effective content on school experience should not be disarrayed. Therefore, the content formatting guidelines must be read to steer clear of the hidden mistakes. The content fairness needs to be maintained for resetting the whole content with more innovation in style. In this connection, the automated database offers free sample write-ups and articles to students for comparison. Read some of these published write –ups on school life before composing your content. It will make you confident of reaching the goal in the long run.

OK, so I was looking at a friends blog tonight and saw someone I knew from what feels like FOREVER ago and so I looked at her blog and found this really fun idea! That's why I copied it and posted it on my blog. :) I LOVE games so if you have a minute-play with me please!
Here are the directions:
1. As a comment on my blog, leave one memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. It's actually pretty funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. If you don't want to play on your blog, or if you don't have a blog, I'll leave my memory of you in my comments.

The house is getting painted this week and I can't wait to cross another handful of things off of our "to do" list.
Joseph's Coat roses have been my favorite for a long time. I've never been one to swoon over a bouquet of roses, but I love these. I bought four of them to climb the front of the house on either side of our pair of french doors. We haven't been able to plant them in the ground yet, but I got my first bloom the other day.

P3.01-09 - Impact of Urban or Rural Residence on Overall Survival for Patients with Metastatic Non-Squamous NSCLC (ID 12735)
12:00 - 13:30 | Author(s): Rajesh Balkrishnan
- Abstract
- Slides
Although data suggests that disparities in ethnicity impact survival outcomes in lung cancer, little is known about whether disparities according to primary residence (rural vs urban) impact survival outcomes in metastatic non-squamous, non-small cell lung cancer (ns-NSCLC).a9ded1e5ce5d75814730bb4caaf49419 Method
This is a retrospective study of 176 patients with stage IV ns-NSCLC treated at our institution from 2014-2016. Patients were classified as urban or rural residents based on zip codes using the RUCA and SAS zip code databases. Socioeconomic factors were derived from the AHRF database. Risk of death and overall survival (OS) were calculated using COX proportional hazards regression.4c3880bb027f159e801041b1021e88e8 Result
Baseline characteristics are in Table 1. Patients from rural zip codes had worse median OS (12.2 mo, 95% CI 5.1-16.0) compared to patients from urban zip codes (15.7 mo, 95% CI 9.6-27.9), with a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.589 (95% CI 1.052-2.401, p=0.0278). When adjusted for age, gender, smoking status, median income, percent in poverty per county, and EGFR mutational status, these results remained significant (HR 1.670, 95% CI 1.016-2.743, p=0.0376). A secondary analysis based on median household income (MHI) showed that those from regions with MHI less than the median of the cohort were 1.931 times more likely to die than those from regions with greater MHI (95% CI 1.038-3.595, p=0.0378).
Table 1. Baseline patient characteristics Characteristic Rural Urban Total (%) 76 (43.2) 100 (56.8) Median age in years 65 64 Male gender (%) 36 (47.4) 50 (50) Race/ethnicity White 66 (86.8) 75 (75.0) Black 9 (11.8) 16 (16.0) Hispanic 1 (1.3) 2 (2.0) Other 0 7 (7.0) Ever-smokers (%) 65 (85.5) 80 (80.0) Median household income in dollars 52818 63343 Percent persons in poverty 14.4 14.3 EGFR mutation present (%) 14 (18.4) 19 (19.0)
Overall survival for rural patients with metastatic ns-NSCLC was inferior to those living in urban areas. This risk was more pronounced after adjusting for potential confounders. Those from regions with MHI below the median also had increased risk of death compared to those from areas above the median, suggesting that rural financial toxicity may influence lung cancer survival in our area. Further efforts to characterize the socioeconomic determinants of poorer outcomes in rural areas are needed and could support the formation of programs aimed at improving access to care.6f8b794f3246b0c1e1780bb4d4d5dc53

Des Moines, WA (PRWEB) July 20, 2016
The state of Washington has approved Wesley Homes Home Health's certificate of need for hospice care, a program that will strengthen the organization's continuum of care.
"Wesley Homes has a unique opportunity to develop a hospice program from scratch," said Executive Director Melinda Moore of Wesley Homes Home Health. "This is our chance to create a model and philosophy of care that fits the Wesley Homes mission, to take our expertise and passion as dedicated individuals and create a team that best meets the needs and preferences of patients and their loved ones."
Currently, Wesley Homes Home Health clients and their families have to contract with a new agency when hospice care becomes necessary. The Wesley Homes care provider they've come to love and trust must say goodbye, and clients and families have to begin a new relationship during a vulnerable time.
"Being Medicare-certified for hospice is the piece of our continuum of care that we don't have right now," said Moore. "It's a part of our mission that we've had to hand over to other hospice providers. That's not the smooth transition to end of life that everyone is entitled to have. Hospice care from Wesley Homes will simplify the process for families and improve each client's experience. Communication is just with Wesley Homes and not with several different agencies."
Receiving the certificate of need is just the first of a multi-step plan for Wesley Homes to become Medicare-certified for hospice. The next step is to create the actual hospice program, which includes setting up offices, staffing, forming the key disciplinary team and establishing policies and procedures.
Wesley Homes expects to receive licensure from the state in the fall of 2016. The organization will then be able to serve private pay clients and will submit an application for Medicare and Medicaid certifications.
Established in 1944 and affiliated with the Pacific Northwest Conference of the United Methodist Church, Wesley Homes operates two retirement communities and a Medicare- and Medicaid-certified home health agency: Wesley Homes Des Moines, Wesley Homes Lea Hill in Auburn and Wesley Homes Home Health.

Most auto mechanics service cars and trucks that run on unleaded gasoline. One particular of the large reasons for WRX's achievement is the company's signature two. liter four-cylinder engine. I was conscious that my Ciera generally got about 17 or 18 MPG on the highway, but it was enjoyable to drive simply because the 3.8 liter engine had a decent amount of power. Kanzashi add-ons may contain direct fuel injection, exhaust gas recirculation systems or cease-commence technologies that turn off the engine when the car stops.
Today's engine is a collection of sophisticated components and systems that offer the driving force to get you down the road. Fairly handful of diverse components are required, normally making use of most of the original engine parts, like the block, heads, oil pump, water pump and all accessories. Regrettably, my enthusiasm of the moment caused me to rev it up even a lot more, and at around 6300 rpm it briefly produced just more than 43 horsepower when the components of the lawn mower engines decided to disintegrate.
Maintains a large inventory of rebuilt engines, stocks a large inventory of best brand automotive engine parts, and gives a total automotive machine shop to deal with all of your internal rebuilt engine demands. But in really fine print, they note that the engine they are describing is 1.2 liters (72 cubic inches) or 1.six liters (96 cubic inches) or 2. liters (120 cubic inches). When the torque of an engine is measured, it is the Typical that really gets measured.
When a car or truck wants main engine repair, the initial response and reaction of numerous consumers is to acquire a new or utilised vehicle. At that moment the engine may well be 'committed' to stopping but is nonetheless spinning, so to steer clear of crunching, one solenoid fires up the starter motor to synchronise its speed with the engine ahead of the second smoothly engages the gear. Take your car to a trustworthy automotive repair shop, dealer or engine installation center for diagnosis. Keep as close to this schedule as feasible to prevent low gas mileage and low engine energy.
At greater engine speeds, the crankshaft is rotating much more swiftly so that it is farther previous TDC at the moment of maximum dynamic stress in the cylinder (even although the ignition advance has been enhanced even far more).

Amanda Smythe Interior Stylist
Amanda Smythe is fiercely committed to guiding people to create a
beautiful and inspiring
environment that they will love to live in.
My path to becoming a home stylist became clear after owning and running my own property styling business. I found that the owners and buyers alike were so in love with the looks I created that it became heart breaking dismantling them. I then realised my true passion was to provide that for clients permanently, to give them a home they truly loved, that felt authentic and that they could enjoy for many years to come.
If you are looking for a proven professional who can provide you with a signature design that provides a wow factor, whilst maintaining a relaxed space, you've come to the right place.
With years of experience working with amazing clients with similar worries and concerns you might have and guiding them to achieve remarkable success, my mission and commitment is to create a style which feels most authentic to you.
I am so privileged that clients say remarkable things about the impact my work has had on their environment.
These have included:
"Amanda completely understood the feel I was trying to create and went above and beyond. She totally delivered and added a bit of extra 'zhoozh'."
"I just wanted to say thank you so much for the beautiful styling you've done for me. The furniture, artwork, colours, textures, everything is of only the best quality and such unique design. You make spaces come alive, and not only that you are so pleasant and easy to deal with. Thank you again, you're the best!"
"We had delightful Amanda come and style our apartment for us. Everyone who visits comments on how terrific it looks. Her input makes the apartment appear bigger and brighter and makes it a pleasure to come home. Amanda was professional and listened to our requirements. She had some wonderful suggestions about furniture placement which has really enhanced the living area. I highly recommend her, she has brilliant talent in both furniture selection, fabrics and colours.
Thank you Amanda!"
"Amanda was referred to me by another trusted small business professional and she proved to be everything I was promised plus more. Amanda made sure she understood my 4 girls and my husband's personality and ensured her recommendations were in line with my goal of tasteful design that would survive the busy family. Amanda was very flexible and understanding and came under my budget with her concepts and recommendations which made both me and my husband very happy! I can not recommend her highly enough."
"We initially hired Amanda to design our formal lounge only. After our positive experience with Amanda, we decided to hire her to further design our casual lounge, home office and spare bedroom as well! Amanda understands the brief immediately, and is extremely efficient in the delivery of her services. She is diverse in her style, and doesn't abide by one formula. We highly recommend Amanda!"
"I just wanted you to know how much I appreciated your expertise in the styling of our apartment. I loved it immediately and find it so easy to live with – very stylish as well as being comfortable and inviting. You are very talented in this field, many thanks again."
"I cannot express how thankful I am to have had Amanda style my apartment and would recommend her without hesitation. Not only did she make the whole process incredibly easy, her flair for creativity, styling, colour and understanding the space in my apartment was amazing. Thank you!"
"I engaged Amanda to decorate my new apartment. She was fantastic to work with and really understood what I was trying to achieve for my home. She provided a quick turnaround, took care of everything for me and I couldn't be happier with the result! Guests always comment on how my apartment looks like a magazine. Highly recommend."
"I recently had Amanda help me with the interior of my living/dining/hallway and art work. She was so helpful and totally understood the look I was hoping to achieve. She offered practical sensible advice and direction and was only too helpful with suggestions and advice. Amanda was also mindful of my budget and was happy to stay within it and still make great selections without spending a fortune. Amanda was always prompt with her emails and was immediately on to the suppliers when anything was delayed. I felt like I was an important client and Amanda always had time for me and my queries. I would not hesitate to recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a reliable, honest expert to make their home design dreams become a reality with Amanda's expert advice and commitment to her projects."
"We contacted Amanda after we bought our unit in the Upper North Shore. Our apartment was a blank canvass when we moved in. Amanda gave us great design ideas for layout , furniture, blinds, floor coverings and built ins. She was very easy to deal with, had great suggestions, worked to our budget, happy to discuss alternative ideas, helped us choose items and suggested alternatives in different price ranges. All things we would have struggled with. She also helped with the ordering of some of the furniture and with the follow up of the deliveries. She was very professional and accomodating. Happy to recommend her services."
What lights me up about this work
is knowing the impact your surroundings have on you. Knowing that together we can really infuse your home with your signature style and that you can feel relaxed in your space.
My perspectives have been featured in publications such as Australian House & Garden and The Sunday Telegraph, and I am regularly quoted in design blogs.
Let me help you
Love the space you live in
Discover how Amanda can help you with your project.
Let's Connect.

It is the easiest thing to locate car shipping companies around Eastlake if you have access to the internet as well as a little determination. At this time, the internet marketplace is full of businesses from Eastlake, OH. With a click of the mouse you should have a list of all of the firms that operate in Eastlake along with their price ranges. But also watch out, an inexpensive package does not imply you're going to get the best offer. A number of companies operating in Ohio are significantly less expensive, yet the services available are beneath par.
The most challenging part comes next. Do a background check of the selected company. You can easily obtain everything you need from online opinions. Try and read between the lines and be as objective as you possibly can. Also, make sure the business you have selected has been in business for a while. Plenty of vehicle shipping businesses from Eastlake, OH have undergone plenty of changes over time.
Once you've chosen a firm from Ohio the next phase is to reserve your transportation. Phone or maybe send an e-mail, but be sure to ask for a verification e-mail or fax. The car must undergo some modifications next. First thing would be to clean the automobile so it will be easier to spot any damages, then get all of your personal things out. Also, a wise idea may be to empty your fuel tank since this decreases the money necessary for the shipping.
Make sure you get the right car evaluation from the carrier driver when it comes for the pick-up. All of the notes must then go on a vehicle condition report that will be a double signed copy. Do not dispose of it until the transportation is completed. Additionally, do yet another check for damages when your automobile arrives. Don't overlook anything at all because this is your only opportunity to claim destruction. If that's the situation, ask the carrier to note in the condition report, sign it and provide you with a copy.
No matter the size of your automobile, there is surely a car transport company to help you transport it from Eastlake, OH. Whatever you choose in the end, never ever accept to paying in advance, irrespective of how good the sale appears to be.

Undisciplined Youth or Sign of the Times?
Many of the reactions to this survey, New U.S. Smartphone Growth by Age and Income, are suggesting that young people don't have their priorities straight in that even though they may be earning $15,000 or less a year, they still spend money on a smartphone. I disagree.
What isn't revealed by this survey is how many of those surveyed do not have a land line. In many cases, the individual's cell phone is their only phone. They do not have a land line. Back when I was in my 20's (just after the era of strings pulled tight between soup cans and just before cell phones), my income was comparable to $15,000 per year in today's dollars. Yet, I still had a phone. It was as indispensable then as it is today.
Neither does the survey distinguish the type of smartphone. Some are more expensive than others. Some are acquired new while others may be acquired refurbished at a significantly reduced price – particularly for older models (AT&T is offering me an upgrade from my 3G iPhone to a refurbished 3GS for 1¢.) Given the multifunction capabilities of a smartphone, the case can be made that such devices replace more than just a phone. They replace the phone book, paper maps, and the Rolodex. Smartphones also incorporate features, such as a personal music device, once contained in physically separate devices.
So, if I were to add together the relative cost of my circa 1980's telephone service, portable cassette player, and day-timer, the sum would probably compare to the cost of today's modest smartphone and cell service.

The Crucible
why is giles corey's refusal to name names important
act 3
act 3
Giles has a complete sense of honesty; in asking men to testify against Thomas Putnam, he has assured them that they will not need to come forward, simply agree that their testimony is honest. He is unwilling to give the judgest the name they request which means he is in contempt of court. He simply refuses to gives the names and as long as he is quiet, his sons will inherit his land. This is very important to him and so he is pressed to death without ever giving the judges one word.
