Rated 5 out of 5 by Nana from Great for Citrus fans My mother fell in love with the fact it was sweet but not too over powering. Its main note after rubbing in is more of a Citrusy smell. Definatly a perfect smell for christmas time!Date published: 2018-01-13Rated 5 out of 5 by FavoriteShopper from Best smelling hydrating lotion ever! I tried this out in the store where there was a tester bottle on display. Instantly I loved the rich hydrating creaminess of the product. We live in Denver and it is very dry here. The scent was amazing - and I'm not really a "scent person." They seem to either fade or change on me and they just smell completely different after a few minutes. I'm not sure if it is the essential oils or what, but the scent stayed true to itself until I eventually washed it off. We went to another store after shopping at W&S. As we were there, I turned to my husband and said, "It smells wonderful in here - it has a rich, gentle holiday scent." A few minutes later I put my hands near my face and realized that *I* smelled that way! Not the store! That being said, it is not a heavy scent. I would not like that. It is simply beautiful and has a nice lingering fresh scent. It would make a nice gift, too.Date published: 2013-12-08

When I tell people that I am due to give birth at the end of the Summer, many of them tell me how hot I'm going to get! I will be going through the third trimester at the height of Summer and I am under no illusion that I will most likely turn into a hot, sweaty, swollen mess in the process!
It's no secret that I love buying clothes, and the obsession hasn't stopped since I got preggers. In fact, it may even be a little be worse (just a little bit!). I've bought a few items of essential maternity clothing (jeans and bodycon dresses). The majority of the clothes I have bought are from the high street's standard ranges. Just a size or two larger. I didn't realise how difficult it can be to dress an ever expanding baby bump. Planning an outfit definitely takes more thought in the mornings!
The Jumpsuit
Since the weather has become warmer, I have been practically living in this jumpsuit from ASOS. Not only is it made out of delicious stretchy jersey fabric which goes over my bump with ease, it is the comfiest thing I have probably ever worn! It's non maternity too! Which is perfect for when I have the baby as it means I can get loads of wear out of it. The tie-string straps mean breastfeeding will be easier to whip a boob out too.
If you follow me on Instagram then you'll know I am a huge sucker for stripes and also quite recently polka dots and I was so thrilled to find that not only do ASOS make this jumpsuit in a range of different patterns and materials but they have a polka dot one too! In the basket it went and I have been alternating between the stripes and dots ever since. I also have my eye on this one and this one too.
Have you ever bought an item and loved it so much you bought it in multiple colours?

My debut album 'The Fake and The Fabuless' was officially released April 2011 and has been very well received.
Since the albums release I have gone from 0 to over 1,200 fans on , Reverbnation, and several other notable music sites. Within two weeks of its release the album shot to #12 on the Reverb Nation alternative rock charts and #20 in the Georgia music charts (all genres). I have been interviewed and reviewed by several publications as well as other notable figures, such as renowned blood artist Nick Kushner.
All without a single live performance.
With the move to Los Angeles fast approaching its time to take the next step. I am looking for talented and experienced musicians for Live shows, touring, writing new material, and studio recording. Although I am a solo artist, I am not looking for a "backup band". I need dedicated and creative, full time musicians who are ready and willing to do whatever it takes to succeed.

Note: As a diabetic, you need to pay constant attention to your eating habits, nutrition and sugar levels. You should also keep in regular contact with your doctor or medical supervisor, in case your condition changes. In addition, you may find it useful to follow the following guidelines.
1. Follow a Low-Fat, Healthy Carb Diet With Modest Amounts of Protein
Ann Weight Loss Program is a very good choice.
2. Make Complex Carbohydrates a Regular Part of Your Diet
Carbohydrates can be divided into two types:
Simple Carbohydrates
These include: ingredients like sucrose, glucose or fructose, or foods like sweets, candies, cakes, sweet drinks, jams.
Simple carbohydrates are rapidly absorbed and digested.
Result? They cause a sudden surge of sugar in your bloodstream which can cause problems. So they should be avoided altogether, or eaten in very small quantities.
Complex Carbohydrates (inc. fiber)
Also called starches, these include: whole wheat or wholegrain bread, whole wheat pasta, brown rice, beans, oats, most vegetables and fruits.
Complex carbohydrates are slowly absorbed and digested.
Result? They help to keep our sugar levels relatively stable.
Note: If a small amount of simple carbohydrate (e.g. jam/preserve) is eaten and absorbed with a quantity of complex carbohydrate (e.g. wholemeal bread), the sugar in the simple carbohydrate will be absorbed more slowly.
3. Drink Alcohol in Moderation
Ideally avoid it altogether. Alcohol behaves like a simple carbohydrate and can quickly destabilize your sugar-levels. If you can't avoid it, drink ONLY in moderation and NEVER on an empty stomach.
4. Learn About Nutrition
Managing diabetes requires daily discipline.
By following a proper diet, you will make things a lot easier for yourself.
For the sake of your long term health, you must not delegate the planning of your diet to someone else. You must take an active role.
The only way to do this, is to find out as much as you can about healthy eating for diabetics. Consult your doctor or dietician. Visit your local library or bookshop. Search the Internet for information.
5. Follow a Regular Exercise Plan
Exercise is particularly important for diabetics, as it helps to regulate blood sugar levels. If you do not take regular exercise, I strongly urge you to consult your doctor for advice about exactly how much exercise you need and when you should take it.
6. Follow a Regular Daily Schedule
Try to follow a regular eating and exercise routine. Have meals and snacks at similar times each day. Exercise at similar times each day. This helps to promote more stable blood-sugar levels.

If you are a regular reader of my blog, you know that I serve as the spokesperson for American Career College and West Coast University. On Friday I came across this public post on Facebook from a woman who lives in Chino, saying that she had paid for the gas of a stranded student in American Career College scrubs:
I reached out to her on Facebook to say thank you, and asked for her address so we could send a thank you note and repay her kindness (but we planned to do much more than that). It turns out that Staci is unemployed, but still found it in her heart to buy gas for the stranded student.
ACC President Tom McNamara hand wrote a thank you card for Staci. Vice President for Student Success Susan Pailet and her team began to gather some ACC items to assemble a basket of goodies. Working with the ACC Ontario campus team, we assembled the basket with gas cards, some ACC branded items and a big box of See's candy. Susan also bought stuffed animals for her two children.
After a meeting in Ontario yesterday, Susan and I drove to Staci's house to deliver the thank you in person. Unfortunately, she was not home, but we left it on her porch. This is what she wrote to us when she found it upon her return home:
"I just wanted to reach out and say thank you to all of you for the wonderful blessing I found on my porch today. My kids loved their toys and they were very excited to see a present on our porch when we arrived home. I never expected a random gesture of kindness from one stranger to another to be so fulfilling. This whole experience has taught my children a good lesson this Christmas about giving and being kind to others. Despite that we may not have everything, we are still so rich in our hearts. Thank you again and happy holidays to all of you." -Staci
Staci also took to Instagram and posted these photos:
Thank you, Staci for the kindness you showed to that ACC student! You are the perfect example of what it means to show compassion to others and I am happy you posted about it on Facebook.

Line of Duty returns for a fourth series of tormenting twists and turns in a new Sunday night slot on BBC One.
Vicky McClure and Martin Compston's Steve Arnott and Kate Fleming are back with a new thrilling investigation into police corruption, with fan favourite Adrian Dunbar overseeing all the drama as the head of AC-12.
Every series features a new antagonist for the team with Lennie James, Keeley Hawes and Daniel Mays all previously appearing in the show.
Series 4 has gone even bigger with Hollywood star Thandie Newton joining the team alongside Brit Jason Watkins.
Keep reading for a quick guide to the series four characters - in the cast's own words:
[Read more: Line of Duty series 4 episode 4 - All the burning questions]
[Read more: Vicky McClure and Jed Mercurio Line of Duty 4 interview - Catch up with the AC-12 team]
DCI Roz Huntley played by Thandie Newton
"I didn't know anything about the role but I said I wanted to do it. The first thing I saw was series three. I don't watch a lot of television - because I have kids the only thing I watch is SpongeBob or Paw Patrol! My agent said to me: 'Thandie, an offer has come in and if you ever want to work in British television, this is it'. I've been with my agent since I was 17 so when she said something like that, I sat up.
"So I watched it and was completely knocked out by it and Daniel Mays. I'm such a fan of him, as with Keeley Hawes and Lennie James, I've admired them for years. They had clearly been attracted to the material and after meeting Jed, I was in. He's been a pilot, a doctor; he's the most efficient human being I think I've ever met! He's used all his skills and gone to the absolute pinnacle of each and I wanted to try and match that with my acting.
"I don't have the opportunity to work in Britain very much because there are a lot of period dramas and they often don't have calls for women of colour so I went to Hollywood."
[Read more: Catch up the series 3 finale of Line of Duty]
Tim Ifield played by Jason Watkins
"I did a bit of research. I got to know a policeman up in Cumbria via Twitter and he said if you ever need to do any research then come and see us. I was filming something nearby so I nipped up the coast and I met a Forensic Coordinator.
"Tim's a forensics expert, not only is he a very detailed and brilliant practitioner but he is meticulous and professional. Often these guys can solve the case themselves and I think because they have the ability to do that, sometimes there's friction between other departments."
Steve Arnott played by Martin Compston
"A bit of time has passed since the end of series three, we're all back at the office, and Steve's back in his waistcoat being his arrogant little self again. He's really pushing for a promotion and things are just a wee bit frosty between him and Kate. They always have that love/hate relationship, when they really need each other they are there for each other but they really can annoy each other at times. They were probably my favourite scenes, when Vicky and I are getting on each other's nerves."
Kate Fleming played by Vicky McClure
"She's been promoted to the same rank as Steve Arnott and she's pretty raring to go actually. She's got a lot to prove and she wants to make sure she makes Hastings proud and we see her ambition and drive are as strong as ever. Her personal life is not ideal but is settled.
"Kate and Steve have a continued strain on their relationship but they really look after each other. It's a bit like a brother and sister relationship."
Ted Hastings played by Adrian Dunbar
"It is getting a little deeper this time. We're not seeing any of his personal life but we are seeing his professional life put under a huge amount of pressure. He's trying to balance out the fact that he's very loyal to the concept of policing and law and order in general and he believes in it but his problem always is that people who are lower or even higher than him are miscreants."
DC Jodie Taylor played by Claudia Jessie
You may recognise Jodie from daytime drama WPC 56 or minor roles in Call the Midwife and Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell. Jed Mercuiro very rarely lets characters pass by without reason, so we suspect we'll be seeing more of the young officer in Roz Huntley's team as the series progresses.
Michael Farmer played by Scott Reid
Best known to TV fans as Methadone Mick in the comedy Still Game, Scott Reid switches to drama for the role of Michael Farmer. Has Michael been the victim of a stitch-up? Or is he playing an evil game?
Nick Huntley played by Lee Ingleby
A popular BBC drama star, well known for his roles in The A Word and Inspector George Gently, Ingleby wouldn't have signed up to the show for a minor role. But how will Roz Huntley's husband fit into the mystery and does he have any secrets of his own?
Neil Twyler played by Mark Stobbart
Another rising star in the cast, you may have seen Mark in Vera, Doctors, Skins, Utopia or the film Almost Married.
ACC Derek Hilton played by Paul Higgins
The most senior officer in the new series and a returning character from series 1, but how much do we trust ACC Derek Hilton. In the words of Ted Hastings, how do we know when he's lying - when his lips are moving!
Detective Constable Jamie Desford played by Royce Pierreson
Royce starred in the 2016 series of Our Girl alongside Michelle Keegan and also made an impact in the Bafta-winning BBC Three drama Murdered by My Boyfriend.
He will play a newcomer in the AC-12 team in episode 3 - but we'll have to wait a while to find out whether he's a good un or a wrong un.
WPC Maneet Bindra played by Maya Sondhi
The fan favourite played a key role in bring down dastardly Dot Cottan in series 3 and she's already popped up several times in series 4. Played by Maya Sondhi, you may recognise her from Citizen Khan, DCI Banks, Silemt Witness or Family Affairs.
DCI Ian Buckells played by Nigel Boyle
Friend or foe? We're still in the dark about the new head of Operation Trapdoor and where he stands on AC-12. He previously appeared in series 1 opposite Tony Gates (Lenny James), but does he bear a grudge against Steve, Kate and Tes after previous events?
Jimmy Lakewell played by Patrick Baladi
Nick Huntley's lawyer on speed dial, smarmy Jimmy Lakewell, is being played by Bodies and The Office star Patrick Baladi. Why was Nick so keen to get Jimmy involved, even before Steve Arnott's attack? Could Jimmy have been balaclava man or being behind the attacks? We definitely don't trust him and reckon he's involved in this plot much deeper than hr first appears.

Before I begin my list, I must make a distinction between a discount and a bargain.
I love a good bargain. (Yes, I'm a Jewish woman but I won't say that's why I love a bargain lest I offend other Jewesses with my stereotyping). To me, a bargain is like a good secret. A friend will let you in on a bargain: "Oh, Amanda, you've GOT to go to Banana right away! They just put cashmere hoodies on sale and they won't last!"
But a discount is no secret. It's a huge sign in the window of the 99 cent store, begging you to come inside and help them get rid of their canned pineapple so that they can make room for Valentine's Day decorations.
"Bargain Basement" is just another word for Discount. No, it's worse. The basement is where discounts end up when they haven't sold after being discounted. (You think all that canned pineapple got bought?)
Instead of "Bargain Basement," it should be called "Discount Basement," but then I guess you lose the alliteration.
Now you might say, "but Marian, you compared bargains to secrets. Don't people put secrets in basements?" And my response would be, "You make a decent point, and I'm glad you were listening. But I said a bargain was like a GOOD secret. Something you'd WANT to know about. The basement is where people store their BAD secrets — dirty magazines, people they've kidnapped, clothes they wore when they were fat. If anything, good secrets might be in the attic, but not in the basement. Does that clear things up?"
Basements and attics aside, a "discount" means someone is desperate to get rid of it.
So here's my list of THINGS I DON'T THINK SHOULD EVER BE DISCOUNTED…
1) SUSHI All-you-can-eat Sushi Bars may be alluring to some. To me, the term "all you can eat" makes me think of hot dog eating contests. And if the restaurant's willing to let you stuff as much of their raw fish in your mouth as possible, how fresh can it be?
4) ANY SURGERY, for that matter. (Though, if my OB/Gyn would like to give me a rebate for my C-section, I will gladly accept. We'll discuss rebates another time.)
5) THERAPY Again, I'd like to pay less for this but I'm not going to seek counseling from someone who's begging to give it.
6) MASSAGE I was tempted by a Groupon for this one, but I opted out. In my head,"discount massage" came to mean "cheap rubbing" and it didn't sound relaxing to me.
8) BABY GOODS THAT GO IN THE MOUTH OR BUTT My baby deserves top dollar.
I'm sure you have more to add to the list. Or maybe you think I'm a snob. Either way, I promise your comment won't end up in the bargain bin.
How do you feel about a discount on baby goods that go in YOUR mouth or butt?
And, finally, are you really okay with canned pineapple being discounted? Because that goes in our dad's mouth. Then again, so does old salad.

"Discounted adult baby goods are ok, as long as they're not used.
Anything that goes in dad's mouth should probably be discounted.
You reminded me of another thing that should not be discounted: Salad bars, especially the ones in new york bodegas."

"I saw the link to your previous article, and it inspired me to leave a comment for this entry… Santa should not be discounted. Nobody should be made to feel like they took their child to the "discounted" Santa for Christmas photographs. If some Santas are cheaper than others, that fact shouldn't be highlighted anywhere."

"That's a good one. What services do you think the cheaper Santas cut back on? Is it in the costume, or how much love they give the kids? Actually, it's probably the discounted ones that act more affectionate… And I'd add most religious experiences to the list, just to be multi-culti. Bar Mitzvahs, Scientology rites (whatever they do), that sort of thing."

Claudio Reyna, the former United States international and Manchester City captain, has been appointed director of football at City's new MLS franchise, New York City FC.
The Manchester club, in partnership with baseball's New York Yankees, announced on Tuesday they had bought a franchise to compete in Major League Soccer from 2015.
The club has wasted little time in bringing in Reyna, who had a spell with City as a player between 2003-07, and also had stints at Rangers and Sunderland.
Ferran Soriano, City's chief executive, said: "Finding the right person for this role and getting him in place from the start was a priority. The football culture of New York City FC will be built from this decision, and we believe Claudio is the man who uniquely understands what New York soccer should mean, and how it can benefit from the relationship with Manchester City FC."

Last week I shared with you my personal story on how being visible completely change the course of my business. Drowning down in financial stress, becoming visible online helped me go from $64 to $8700 in a month – It was truly epic!
I bet by now you understand the importance of visibility to move your business forward, get the right clients and bring on new opportunities.
Yet once we decide to step into that role of truly being who we are, being honest and up front about our beliefs and experiences, fear kicks in stronger than before.
I'm not going to lie, making myself visible was scary at that time and required an everyday commitment to change the course of my story.
On today's video, I'm addressing that process of being visible and everything that comes with it, in special that common fear of people "finding out" about your truth.
Plus a little "advice" a family member decided to give me that I completely and happily ignored for the sake of moving forward in my business.
Hit play and let me know your thoughts in the comments!
With love, hugs and unicorn kisses!

Crime Novels
American Noir of the 1950s
By ROBERT POLITO
The Library of America
Read the Review
By Charles Willeford
Enter Madame
It must have been around a quarter to eleven. A sailor came in and ordered a chile dog and coffee. I sliced a bun, jerked a frank out of the boiling water, nested it, poured a half-dipper of chile over the frank and sprinkled it liberally with chopped onions. I scribbled a check and put it by his plate. I wouldn't have recommended the unpalatable mess to a starving animal. The sailor was the only customer, and after he ate his dog he left.
That was the exact moment she entered.
A small woman, hardly more than five feet.
She had the figure of a teen-age girl. Her suit was a blue tweed, smartly cut, and over her thin shoulders she wore a fur jacket, bolero length. Tiny gold circular earrings clung to her small pierced ears. Her hands and feet were small, and when she seated herself at the counter I noticed she wasn't wearing any rings. She was pretty drunk.
"What'll it be?" I asked her.
"I believe I need coffee." She steadied herself on the stool by bracing her hands against the edge of the counter.
"Yes, you do," I agreed, "and you need it black."
I drew a cupful and set it before her. The coffee was too hot for her to drink and she bent her head down and blew on it with comical little puffs. I stood behind the counter watching her. I couldn't help it; she was beautiful. Even Benny, from his seat behind the cash register, was staring at her, and his only real interest is money. She wasn't nearly as young as I had first thought her to be. She was about twenty-six or -seven. Her fine blonde hair was combed straight back. Slightly to the right of a well-defined widow's-peak, an inch-wide strip of silver hair glistened, like a moonlit river flowing through night fields. Her oval face was unlined and very white. The only make-up she had on was lipstick; a dark shade of red, so dark it was almost black. She looked up from her coffee and noticed that I was staring at her. Her eyes were a charred sienna-brown, flecked with dancing particles of shining gold.
"This coffee is too hot." She smiled good-humoredly.
"Sure it is," I replied, "but if you want to sober up you should drink it hot as you can."
"My goodness! Who wants to sober up?"
Benny was signaling me from the cash register. I dropped my conversation with the girl to see what he wanted. Benny was a flat, bald, hook-nosed little man with a shaggy horseshoe of gray hair circling his head. I didn't particularly like him, but he never pushed or tried to boss me and I'd stuck it out as his counterman for more than two months. For me, this was a record. His dirty eyes were gleaming behind his gold-rimmed glasses.
"There's your chance, Harry!" He laughed a throaty, phlegmy laugh.
I knew exactly what he meant. About two weeks before a girl had entered the cafe at closing time and she had been pretty well down on her luck. She'd been actually hungry and Benny had had me fix her up with a steak and french fries. Afterwards, he had made her pay him for the meal by letting him take it out in trade in the kitchen.
"I don't need any advice from you," I said angrily.
He laughed again, deep in his chest. "It's quitting time. Better take advantage." He climbed down from his stool and walked stiffly to the door. He shot the bolt and hung the CLOSED sign from the hook. I started toward the kitchen and as I passed the woman she shook her empty cup at me.
"See? All finished. May I have another?"
I filled her cup, set it in front of her and went into the back room and slipped into my tweed jacket. The jacket was getting ratty. It was my only outer garment, with the exception of my trenchcoat, and I'd worn it for more than two years. The elbows were thin and the buttons, except one, were missing. The good button was the top one and a coat looks funny buttoned at the top. I resolved to move it to the middle in the morning. My blue gabardine trousers hadn't been cleaned for three weeks and they were spotted here and there with grease. I had another pair of trousers in my room, but they were tuxedo trousers, and I used them on waiter and busboy jobs. Sober, I was always embarrassed about my appearance, but I didn't intend to stay sober very long. I combed my hair and I was ready for the street, a bar and a drink.
She was still sitting at the counter and her cup was empty again.
"Just one more and I'll go," she said with a drunken little laugh. "I promise."
For the third time I gave her a cup of coffee. Benny was counting on his fingers and busily going over his receipts for the day. I tapped him on the shoulder.
"Benny, I need a ten until payday," I told him.
"Not again? I let you have ten last night and today's only Tuesday. By Saturday you won't have nothing coming."
You don't have to worry about it."
He took his copy-book from under the counter and turned to my page. After he entered the advance in the book he reluctantly gave me a ten dollar bill. I folded the bill and put it in my watch pocket. I felt a hand timidly tugging at my sleeve and I turned around. The little woman was looking up at me with her big blue innocent eyes.
"I haven't any money," she said bitterly.
"Is that right?"
"Not a penny. Are you going to call a policeman?"
"Ask Mr. Freeman. He's the owner; I just work here."
"What's that?" Benny asked, at the mention of his name. He was in the middle of his count and didn't like to be disturbed.
"This young lady is unable to pay for her coffee."
"Coffee is ten cents," he said firmly.
"I'll tell you what, Benny. Just take it out of my pay."
"Don't think I won't!" He returned to his counting.
I unlocked the door, and the woman and I went outside.
"You're a free woman," I said to the girl. "You're lucky that Benny didn't notice you were without a purse when you came in. Where is your purse, by the way?"
"I think it's in my suitcase."
"All right. Where's your suitcase?"
"It's in a locker. I've got the key." She took a numbered key out of the pocket of her fur jacket. "The main trouble is that I can't seem to remember whether the locker's in the railroad station or the bus station." She was genuinely puzzled.
"If I were you I'd look in the bus station first. You're quite a ways from the railroad station. Do you know where it is?"
"The bus station?"
"Yes. It's seven blocks that way and one block that way." I pointed down Market Street. "You can't miss it. I'm going to have a drink."
"Would you mind buying me one too?"
"Sure. Come on."
She took my arm and we walked down Market. It was rather pleasant having a beautiful woman in tow and I was glad she had asked me to buy her a drink. I would never have asked her, but as long as she didn't mind, I certainly didn't mind. I shortened my stride so she could keep up with me and from time to time I looked down at her. Gin was my weakness, not women, but with a creature like her ... well, it was enough to make a man think. We were nearing the bar where I always had my first drink after work and my mind returned to more practical things. We entered, found seats at the end of the bar.
"Say," she said brightly. "I remember being in here tonight!"
"That's fine. It's a cinch you were in some bar." The bartender knew me well, but his eyebrows lifted when he saw the girl with me.
"What'll you have, Harry?" he asked.
"Double gin and tonic." I turned to the girl.
"I'd better not have a double. Give me a little shot of bourbon and a beer chaser." She smiled at me. "I'm being smart, aren't I?"
"You bet." I lit two cigarettes and passed her one. She sucked it deeply.
"My name is Harry Jordan," I said solemnly. "I'm thirty-two years of age and when I'm not working, I drink."
Her laugh closely resembled a tinkling bell. "My name is Helen Meredith. I'm thirty-three years old and I don't work at all. I drink all of the time."
"You're not thirty-three, are you? I took you for about twenty-six, maybe less."
"I'm thirty-three all right, and I can't forget it."
"Well, you've got an advantage on me then. Married?"
"Uh huh. I'm married, but I don't work at that either." She shrugged comically. I stared at her delicate fingers as she handled the cigarette.
The bartender arrived with our drinks. Mine was good and cold and the gin taste was strong. The way I like it. I love the first drink best of all.
"Two more of the same," I told the bartender, "and see if Mrs. Meredith's purse was left here, will you?"
"I haven't seen a purse laying around. Are you sure you left it in here, miss?" he asked Helen worriedly.
"I'm not sure of anything," she replied.
"Well, I'll take a look around. Maybe you left it in a booth."
"Helen Meredith," I said, when the bartender left. "Here's to you!" We clicked our glasses together and drained them down. Helen choked a bit and followed her shot down with the short beer chaser.
"Ahhh," she sighed. "Harry, I'm going to tell you something while I'm still able to tell you. I haven't lived with my husband for more than ten years, and even though I don't wear a ring, I'm still married."
"You don't have to convince me."
"But I want to tell you. I live with my mother in San Sienna. Do you know where that is?"
"Sure. It's a couple of hundred miles down the coast. Noted for tourists, beaches, a mission and money. Nothing else."
"That's right. Well as I told you, I drink. In the past two years I've managed to embarrass Mother many times. It's a small community and we're both well-known, so I decided the best thing to do was get out. This morning I was half-drunk, half-hungover, and I bought a bottle and I left. For good. But I hit the bottle so hard I'm not sure whether I came to San Francisco on the bus or on the train."
"I'm willing to lay odds of two to one it was the bus."
"You're probably right. I really don't remember."
The bartender brought us our second drink. He shook his head emphatically. "You didn't leave no purse in here, miss. You might've thought you did, but you didn't."
"Thanks for looking," I told him. "After we finish this one," I said to Helen, "we'll go back down to the bus station and I'll find your purse for you. Then you'd better head back for San Sienna and Mother."
Helen shook her head back and forth slowly. "No. I'm not going back. Never."
"That's your business. Not mine."
We finished our second drink and left the bar. It was a long walk to the bus station. Market Street blocks are long and crowded. Helen hung on to my arm possessively, and by the time we reached the station she had sobered considerably. The place was jampacked with servicemen of all kinds and a liberal sprinkling of civilians. The Greyhound station is the jumping-off place for servicemen. San Francisco is the hub for all the spokes leading to air bases, navy bases and army posts that dot the bay area.
"Does the bus station look familiar to you?"
"Of course!" She laughed. "I've been to San Francisco many times. I always come up on the bus for my Christmas shopping."
I felt a little foolish. "Let's start looking then." She handed me the numbered key. There are a lot of parcel lockers inside the Greyhound station and many more out on the waiting ramp, but in a few minutes we were able to locate the locker. It was in the first row to the left of the Ladies' Room. I inserted the key and opened the locker. I took the suitcase out of the locker and handed it to Helen. She unsnapped the two catches on the aluminum over-nighter and raised the lid. Her tiny hands ruffled deftly through the clothing. There wasn't any purse. I looked. No purse. I felt around inside the locker. No purse.
"Do you suppose I could have left it in some other bar, Harry?" she asked me worriedly. "Somewhere between here and the cafe?"
"That's probably what you did, all right. And if you did, you can kiss it goodbye. How much money did you have?"
"I don't know, but drunk or sober I wouldn't have left San Sienna broke. I know I had some traveler's checks."
I took my money out of my watch pocket. There were eight dollars and seventy cents. I gave the five dollar bill to Helen. "This five'll get you a ticket back to San Sienna. You'd better get one."
Helen shook her head vigorously this time and firmly set her mouth. "I'm not going back, Harry. I told you I wasn't and I meant it!" She held the bill out to me. "Take it back; I don't want it."
"No, you go ahead and keep it. We'll consider it a loan. But I'm going to take you to a hotel. If I turned you loose you'd drink it up."
"It didn't take you long to get to know me, did it?" She giggled.
"I don't know you. It's just that I know what I'd do. Come on, we'll find a hotel."
I picked up the light suitcase and we left the station. We crossed Market Street and at Powell we turned and entered the first hotel that looked satisfactory to me. There are more than a dozen hotels on Powell Street, all of them adequate, and it was our best bet to find a vacancy. The hotel we entered was furnished in cheap modern furniture and the floor was covered with a rose wall-to-wall carpet. There were several green plants scattered about, all of them set in white pots with wrought-iron legs, and by each foam-cushioned lobby chair, there were skinny, black wrought-iron ash-stands. We crossed the empty lobby to the desk and I set the bag on the floor. The desk clerk was a fairly young man with sleek black hair. He looked up from his comic book with surly gray eyes.
"Sorry," he said flatly. "No doubles left. Just singles."
"That's fine," I said. "That's what I want."
Helen signed the register card. Her handwriting was cramped and it slanted to the left, almost microscopic in size. She put the pen back into the holder and folded her arms across her chest.
"The lady will pay in advance," I said to the clerk, without looking at Helen. She frowned fiercely for a second, then in spite of herself, she giggled and gave the clerk the five dollar bill. He gave her two ones in return. The night clerk also doubled as a bell boy and he came out from behind the desk with Helen's key in his hand.
"You want to go up now?" he asked Helen, pointedly ignoring me.
"I've still got two dollars," Helen said to me. "I'll buy you a drink!"
"No. You go to bed. You've had enough for one day."
"I'll buy you one tomorrow then."
"Tomorrow will be time enough," I said.
Helen's eyes were glassy and her eyelids were heavy. It was difficult for her to hold them open. In the warmth of the lobby she was beginning to stagger a little bit. The night clerk opened the door to the self-operated elevator and helped her in, holding her by the arm. I selected a comfortable chair near the desk and waited in the lobby until he returned. He didn't like it when he saw me sitting there.
"Do you think she'll manage all right?" I asked him.
"She managed to lock her door after I left," he replied dryly.
"Fine. Good night."
I left the hotel and walked up Powell as far as Lefty's, ordered a drink at the bar. It was dull, drinking alone, after drinking with Helen. She was the most attractive woman I had met in years. There was a quality about her that appealed to me. The fact that she was an alcoholic didn't make any difference to me. In a way, I was an alcoholic myself. She wasn't afraid to admit that she was a drunk; she was well aware of it, and she didn't have any intention to stop drinking. It wasn't necessary for her to tell me she was a drunk. I can spot an alcoholic in two minutes. Helen was still a good-looking woman, and she'd been drinking for a long time. I never expected to see her again. If I wanted to, I suppose it would have been easy enough. All I had to do was go down to her hotel in the morning, and ...
I finished my drink quickly and left the bar. I didn't feel like drinking any more. I crossed the street and waited for my cable car. In a few minutes it dragged up the hill, slowed down at the corner, and I jumped on. I gave the conductor my fare and went inside where it was warmer. Usually, I sat in the outside section where I could smoke, but I was cold that night, my entire body was chilled.
On the long ride home I decided it would be best to steer clear of a woman like Helen.

Shoppers at Courts experienced an alternate reality this morning as the Lion Clubs of Bridgetown hosted Dialogue in The Dark.
The event, which was held to mark World Sight Day, was aimed at sensitizing Barbadians to the challenges faced by those who are visually impaired.
During the social experiment, patrons of the retail store attempted to cook, differentiate ingredients, make a bed, and determine the difference between male and female clothing by touch and texture.
For some, it was an eye-opening experience, as normal daily tasks became difficult. Cy Francis described the initiative as "interesting" and said it showed what people with sight took for granted.
"Even with walking with the cane, it was a bit intimidating because you aren't sure of what is in front of you . . . [but] all in all, it was a good experience to see what blind persons go through," he said.
Representatives of the Barbados Association for the Blind and Deaf (BABD) were on hand to advise participants on techniques to make performing tasks without sight, easier.
"Every day, people will acquire disabilities, either through accidents, non-communicable diseases. . . .The idea is that we want to encourage persons to recognize that when these situations do occur, life does not come to an end," BABD president Elviston Maloney told Barbados TODAY. "You can still live a normal life, just with a little assistance here and there but you can go back to living normally, doing the things you used to do before."
President of the Lions Club, Nicola Callender asserted that there was a need for more education on the difficulties faced by the visually impaired, reminding the public that anyone could lose their sight.

Energy Landscapes and Functions of Self-Assembling Peptide Amphiphile Nanofibers
January 18, 2016
Scientific Achievement
The preparative pathway of self-assembled supramolecular systems can determine their final position in their energy landscape, thereby changing their properties as soft materials.
The energy landscape of peptide amphiphile self-assembly. Short fibers are thermo-dynamically favored, but long fibers can be accessed with another preparative pathway. Computer simulations show differences in molecular packing.
Significance and Impact
In biology, proteins can fold and misfold into numerous thermo-dynamic products, often compromising their functions. This research reports a similar link between energy landscapes and functions in synthetic materials.
Research Details
- Two local minima in the energy landscape of peptide amphiphiles were identified, one thermodynamically favored and one kinetically trapped.
- Each minimum can be accessed by selecting a preparative pathway.
- Kinetic trapping results from the ability of β-sheet secondary structure to lock molecules in thermodynamically unfavorable configurations.

MySpace Profile
Tony Sly Bio:
Hi! I'm the singer, songwriter and one of the guitar players for the band "No Use for A Name". No Use continues to be my main focus, however, I'm working on a side project which consists of various types of music. I'm writing this music because I have to get it out of my system and seems it wouldn't exactly fit in with punk rock. I don't really know how it will sound as a whole; guitar, vocals, weird? Right now I am just planning on releasing something at some point, however, likely in 2009. It's just finding the time to do it between watching horrible television shows and touring with the band.

Try And Listen For A Change
(I work at a bureau de change (currency exchange). A customer comes in, wanting to change £20 into Euros. The computer automatically rounds the quote up to the nearest 5€, as this is the smallest denomination note, so it's rare that we're ever able to change the exact sterling amount. However, we can use Euro coins to get a little closer.)
Me: "I can give you 25 euros for £20.83."
Customer: *hands me a £20 note*
Me: "Do you have the extra 83 pence?"
Customer: *nods and smiles*
Me: *waits*
(After a few seconds, I try again.)
Me: "It's £20.83 for the 25 euros. Do you have another 83p?"
Customer: "Yep." *nods and smiles again*
Me: "If you pass it through, I'll process the transaction and get your Euros ready for you."
Customer: "Thank you." *looks at me expectantly*
Me: "Just the 83 pence then, please."
(I try a couple more variations of this, but in the end decide to give up and bring it slightly under £20 by rounding down with some Euro coins. He'll now get 23 Euros and some Sterling change. I count his money for him, and…)
Customer: "Wait, I thought you were going to give me 25 Euros? I've got some extra cash on me if you need to go a little over."
Me: *speechless*

Football and rugby matches scheduled to be held on Kirkless Council managed pitches this weekend have been cancelled.
The pitches are saturated following heavy rain over the weekend and with further rain forecast for tonight (Tuesday), they are expected to remain in an unplayable condition.
Affected leagues have been informed.
Safety inspections will continue to take place, on ground conditions and there will be extra effort made, to prepare the pitches for future fixtures.
The football pitches at Sands Lane in Dewsbury were flooded on Boxing Day after the River Calder burst its banks for the second time in December.
Pitches at Battyeford, off Huddersfield Road in Mirfield, were also flooded.

High Lysine Foods
Lysine is one of the 20 different components of proteins known as amino acids. Each one of these amino acids serves a different function, and they exist in different foods in varying amounts. If you wish to increase your lysine intake naturally, you have many food options available. The University of Maryland Medical Center lists the recommended daily dose of lysine for adults as 12 milligrams per kilogram of body weight 1. For a 120 pound person that equals a little more than 0.5 grams per day.
Lysine's Function
Researchers and consumers are interested in the benefits of individual amino acids. Lysine, for instance, is important in the production of carnitine, a nutrient that allows fatty acids to be converted into energy and helps lower cholesterol. According to Roberto Civitelli M.D., Washington University School of Medicine, Chief of the Division of Bone and Mineral Diseases, it plays an important role in reducing the risk of osteoporosis due to its interaction with calcium. It can help the body absorb calcium more efficiently, reduce calcium loses in urine and reduce the bone loss that leads to this disease. Other studies dating to 1978 show that increased lysine intake can prevent outbreaks of cold sores and genital herpes and can reduce the severity and duration of symptoms.
Meat Sources
Your best bet to find lysine is in meat products, in a serving size of 3.5 ounces. Pork is a good choice; a serving of cooked bacon contains 3 grams of lysine, and an equal portion of lean pork chops delivers 2.5 grams. Ground beef contains a significant amount as well, with 2 grams per portion. Should you wish for a leaner option, poultry is packed with lysine, too. Roasted chicken breast will give you 2.5 grams, and roasted turkey breast has 2 grams. Canned tuna in water and wild Atlantic salmon each contain 2 grams of lysine per serving.
Vegetarian Sources
For the most part, products that come from animals contain lysine, so dairy and eggs are good sources. Parmesan cheese contains 3 grams per 3.5-ounce serving and cheddar 2 grams. Two large eggs make up a 3.5-ounce serving and deliver 1 gram of lysine. Skim milk contains 0.25 grams of lysine per 3.5 ounces, and plain non-fat yogurt delivers about double that, 0.5 grams.
Vegan Sources
Meeting your protein needs on a vegan diet can be challenging. While foods such as nuts typically are eaten in small portions, the following measurements are based on a 3.5-ounce serving. Peanuts have about 1 gram, sunflower seeds and walnuts have about 0.75 grams. Beans and legumes also contain notable amounts of lysine. Note that peanuts do contain high levels of arginine, which should be avoided if suffering from cold sores. Cooked lentils and black beans contain over 0.5 grams and green peas have a little less than 0.5 grams.

Shahrukh Khan Vs dumb Guy At KBC Show
KBC is a very popular reality TV show of India. Initially, several seasons of KBC was hosted by Bollywood Shanshah "Amitabh Bachchan" and after that, this show was hosted by King Of Bollywood "Shahrukh Khan".
This video of KBC shows when Shahrukh Khan hosted this show with a guy who came to play the game and at a point that guy was totally confused about an answer to a question and at that serious moment got converted in a funny moment. All of the audience who were present there at that moment and even Shahrukh also got a laugh riot.
That's why one must see this video at once and enjoy the conversation between the man & Shahrukh Khan and surely you will not also control on your laugh………. 😀 😀

Reverse DNS
Reverse DNS is another way of fighting spam. It allows other servers to check the authenticity of your server.
You will need to know your IP address.
You can look up your IP address using the ipconfig command within a Windows DOS console:
Make a note of your IP address. If there are multiple IP addresses listed then the first one is the one you need
Go to www.dnsstuff.com and enter your IP address in the RevDNS form on the web page.
It will tell you whether you have a reverse DNS entry.
If you do have a reverse entry, use the name of the reverse entry in the Icewarp host name field.
e.g. for a reverse name of mail.icewarpdemo.com
You will also need to create a DNS record for mail.icewarpdemo.com pointing to this IP address
If you do not have a reverse entry, you will need to contact your service provider to have one set up.
How do I find out if I have a reverse DNS entry?Follow

We all had to memorize that cute mnemonic solar system device in grade school that taught us the order of the planets. Some of us even had Milky Way placemats. But for most of us, the outer space education ended there. (Sorry guys: "Star Trek" and Star Wars don't count.) Maybe that's because space feels too distant to ever be relevant to our day-to-day routines. Or maybe it's simply that the otherworldly element generally overwhelems us and bruises our intellectual egos.
But maybe it's time to start paying attention to space again. Hell, Lance Bass and Paris Hilton went there. How complicated can it be? As those who have kept in touch with the cosmos will tell you, space is one damn interesting place, chock-full of wacky phenomena. And you don't even need to work for NASA to understand it. In fact, if you ever find yourself stranded in space like the rag-tag crew of Earthlings in our hilarious original retro SciFi series, "Space Hospital", you might have a lot of fun getting to know the weird ins and outs of the final frontier. Here's a collection of interesting and altogether weird space facts that you probably didn't learn in school or even on TV. So sit back, strap in, and get ready to go where few normal men have gone before.

Great Britain also has a high percentage of people with red hair. In Scotland around 6% of the population has red hair; with the highest concentration of red head carriers in the world found in Edinburgh, making it the red head capital of the world. In 1907, the largest ever study of hair colour in Scotland, which analysed over 500,000 people, found the percentage of Scots with red hair to be 5. 3%. A 1956 study of hair colour among British Army recruits also found high levels of red hair in Wales and in the Scottish border counties of England. [fn 1]

Mantou's pediatrician read off the results from his 1st blood allergy test (RAST -Allergen-specific IgE antibody test). Class IV for egg whites. Class IV for walnuts. Class II for peanuts. Class II for wheat. The class levels range from a spectrum of 0, where the allergen is absent, to VI, where there is an extremely high level of allergen specific IgE. Class IV is considered Very High, and Class II is considered moderate. Then he explained what foods I would have to avoid. "Try avoiding the whole egg, even the yolk since you can't really separate the egg white protein from the yolk". Ok, can do that. "Even though we only tested for walnuts, since it is a tree-nut, I would avoid eating all tree-nuts". Oh wow, I just ate a bag of trail mix before I got here. "Peanuts – peanut butter, peanut oil". Hmm, no more Reese's peanut butter cups! "Wheat – this one is hard so you can try to avoid it if you can". Oh that's easy. Husband then intercedes, "That means no bread – it's made from flour which is from wheat" WHAT?! I didn't think I needed the breakdown but that was a very enlightening conversation.
I'm thankful that the ingredients have the allergen label included on the product packaging. In the first couple of months I spent a good deal of time in those grocery aisles looking over the ingredient lists. I concluded it was not worth shopping down the fresh bread aisle and I didn't think I would ever eat pasta again. There are however special breads in the freezer section like Food for Life's Millet or Brown Rice bread. And there's all kinds of wheat-free pasta – made from corn, brown rice, or quinoa! At first, it was disappointing to find wheat in everything I ate. Cheerios the cereal, the little cute O's that little kids are always snacking on? Well that has both oats and wheat flour. I ended up giving Mantou Kix as tasty portable cereal snacks. Love my gummies but these ones vary, not all gummies have wheat listed in their ingredients – I prefer the Haribo brand. Well now did you know that buckwheat is not a wheat, they aren't even related! We've had a couple of meals with buckwheat and that stuff is good. I just simmer some in a saucepan with onions and carrots, add some spice like cumin and chili pepper. Then add some pork chops or sausage to the mix. Simple, easy, and Mantou approved.

A fem day at the office
I'm having a fabulously fem day here at the home office dressed in my crisp white blouse and navy work skirt with the silky satin lining. My white satin teddy feels absolutely scrumptious against my skin and I have to be careful not to look down because if I catch sight of my smooth silky stocking tops it could lead to an extra long tea break.
It feels so liberating to be dressed so smart for work that the day is just flying past in no time at all. Think I will pop the kettle on in a minute and have my elevens (nice cupper and a couple of my favorite fig rolls) I feel so fab that it will be a real shame to have to get undressed after work. Then again I'm sure I can find something silky and elegant to lounge around in this evening before I slip between my smooth satin sheets tonight.
Have a perfectly fem day satin lovers

Moneyball has been celebrated as a revolutionary look into the world of baseball analytics. The movie that followed also has been hailed as an intriguing look into the world of Oakland Athletics general manager Billy Beane.
The movie follows the 2002 Oakland Athletics season as they rebuilt the roster after losing many high priced free agents.
The last couple of minutes of the movie provides a wonderful metaphor as Jonah Hill's character Peter Brandt brings Brad Pitt's character Billy Beane into the film room to look at one of their minor league players.
Billy Beane is depressed and feels that the past year was a failure because his team did not win the final game of the season.
The video and Peter Brandt's explains that a minor league player is so concerned with his lack of speed that he never tries to stretch a single into a double. But at this one moment he tries to stretch a single into a double and falls coming around first base. He stumbles and eventually crawls back to first base only to be informed that he had hit a homerun. The scene ends with Brad Pitt's character realizing that he had hit a metaphorical home run during the season but only felt like he had stumbled and fell.
Sometimes we are so scared about the things that we cannot do that we don't realize what we did do well.
Every baseball player has limitations and often those limitations cause us as ballplayers to feel that we are inadequate. We focus on our weaknesses that we sometimes miss when we do well.
We need to appreciate what we do well on a baseball field. We need to celebrate our strengths and highlights because this game will often remind us of our shortcomings.
You will hit your metaphorical homeruns. You will metaphorically strike out many times but you need to remember what you do well and stick to your strengths.
I encourage all baseball players to enjoy your accomplishments and the accomplishments of you teammates.
I encourage coaches to celebrate the accomplishments on a baseball field.
Those accomplishments must outweigh our negative thoughts and memories.
We will spend a greater period of our life not playing the game and all we are left with is our memories.
I wish all of you who lace up your cleats to remember the times when you succeeded on the field instead of the times when you failed.
Don't fear what you struggle with because if you fixate on your limitations, eventually those limitations will blind you of your strengths and you will forget about all your successes.
Enjoy the game – don't dread your failures.
