Last week David Quick of the Post & Courier wrote an excellent article regarding the impact of exercise on metabolism. Kudos to David for doing a fine job researching and writing an informative article.
I wanted to expand on some of the points in his article as this is a very important subject in relation to fat loss. Specifically, thereâs a common misconception that doing more exercise is better when it comes to fat loss, since youâll burn more calories.
Truth be told, it would be extremely difficult for most individuals to log enough hours of cardio during the week alone to make up enough of a caloric deficit to swing big doors with fat loss. Sure all exercise burns some calories, but thatâs really not the main benefit or primary reason itâs recommended in a fat loss program.
Understanding Resting Metabolic Rate
A good place to start this discussion is with a quick review of something called your resting metabolic rate. Your unique rate of metabolism is determined by a host of factors like genetics, lean muscle, body mass, hormonal balances and others.
While you can certainly impact your rate of metabolism through changes in your diet and exercise, the majority of calories burned daily are a result of organ and tissue energy demands. In other words, you burn more calories just maintaining body functions at rest than you could ever begin to touch with exercise.
A lot of people I consult with during a Charleston resting metabolic rate test are surprised to learn how many calories they burn in a resting state, and how little they burn with actual exercise. I guess this has something to do with how weâre led to believe that exercise is the key to calorie burning and fat loss. Donât get me wrong, exercise plays a part, but itâs the manipulation of calories in your diet that really shifts the energy balances.
The Thermic Effects Of Food On Your Metabolism
While itâs true that some foods have a higher âthermogenic effect,â meaning they burn more energy during assimilation and digestion (thus raising your metabolism) the impacts are minimal from a big picture standpoint.
Protein gets a lot of hype here since itâs the most thermic of all the nutrients. Without getting into too much detail, eating more protein has significant positive impacts on fat loss, but itâs really not because it raises your metabolism that much. The role of protein has more to do with the preservation of lean muscle tissue during dieting than significantly raising your metabolism.
Just know that everything from eating hot peppers to downing some energy drink that claims to help you âburn more caloriesâ is mostly hype. There are no arrays of special foods or drinks that can significantly impact your metabolism.
Hormonal Balances And Their Impact On Metabolism
Taking genetics out of the equation for a minute, letâs discuss the role of hormonal balances on your metabolism. Make no mistake about itâ¦your metabolism is ultimately controlled by a series of interconnecting hormonal balances in your body.
While the thyroid gland sets your âthermostatâ per say, it does so under the command of hormonal signals. Many people make the faulty assumption that thyroid hormone levels are the sole regulator of your metabolism. This is entirely false.
The best way to explain it is your body has numerous hormonal systems that work in conjunction with one another. If thereâs an imbalance, or breakdown in one system, all other systems are affected.
So while you may have a thyroid hormone imbalance, the root cause of the problem may well be connected to some other hormonal system. A common example would be how an adrenal hormonal imbalance (adrenal fatigue) would result in decreased thyroid hormone production and thus a lowered metabolism.
My point of all this isâ¦you must look at the entire endocrine system as a whole and not just assume you have a low metabolism solely due to a thyroid imbalance or other issue.
If you feel you may have a thyroid hormone imbalance, I would suggest seeking the counsel of specialist who will take the time to look at the big picture.
Contrary to what many physicians would have you believe, âless than optimalâ thyroid hormone levels are NOT that uncommon. This is especially true for post-menopausal women.
A lot of doctors are very hesitant to treat patients unless thereâs a clear cut case of hypothyroidism and thatâs unfortunate. I could go into all the reasons âwhyâ but that would be an entire article in itself. Weâll leave that for another day.
I guess what Iâm trying to say is you get tested by your general physician and he/she tells you that youâre fine since youâre in the ânormalâ range, donât be surprised.
If you show several symptoms of having a possible thyroid hormone imbalance and just donât feel convinced by your doctorâs report, get a second opinion. Look, Iâm not bashing all doctors here. Iâve just found that general practice physicians will often be hesitant in this area, just been my experience.
If you have reason to believe you may have âless than optimalâ thyroid hormone levels simply search out physicians who specialize in hormonal issues. If you live in Charleston and need a recommendation leave me a comment or send me an email and Iâll be happy to make some suggestions.
Impact Of Exercise On Metabolism
I completely agree with the references made in the Post & Courier article to exercise and metabolism. Itâs true that exercise can impact metabolism but not all exercise is created equal in this respect.
Like I mentioned earlier, many people make the mistake of thinking âaerobicâ exercise or long-slow-distance cardio is the most effective type of exercise for fat loss. Once again it goes back to the assumption that youâll burn more calories the longer you go.
From a fat loss standpoint, this strategy can actually wind up being counter-productive. Doing extended bouts of cardio while in a calorie deprivation state (on a diet) can speed up muscle loss and reduce your metabolic rate. You want to be careful not to fall into the trap of thinking âmore is better.â
Instead recent research clearly shows that fat loss is not just a matter of calorie burning but rather a more complex system of hormonal balances and energy levels. There are certain powerful fat burning hormones like growth hormone and adrenaline for example that only get released with short burst of high intensity exercise.
This is why things like âburst trainingâ and âinterval trainingâ are becoming increasingly popular due to their effectiveness as fat loss workouts. We incorporate both types of training with our personal training programs at Shaping Concepts. The research is there and real world experience with clients has proven to us it just simply works.
Here are some examples research cited in the article:
Interval Training
âAmong the studies was one done in 1997 at the University of South Australia. Researchers investigated the effects of a continuous run of 30 minutes at 70% VO2 max versus an interval run that included 20 bouts of one-minute duration at 105% of VO2 max, or âsupramaximal exercise.â The authors reported a significantly greater EPOC (post exercise oxygen consumption â thus calorie burning) following the intermittent bouts of supramaximal exercise.â
Burst Training
âIn a 2001 study at Ohio University, researchers showed a circuit resistance training program using heavy weights, short rest periods, and lasting on 31 minutes was able to generate an EPOC that persisted for 48 hours. Results showed that metabolism was increased 21 percent in the first 24 hours after a session, and even 19 percent in 48 hours after.â
There is much more depth that we can get into on this subject, and Iâm sure we will in the future. I just wanted to make reference to the article and share some additional insight.
The whole subject of metabolism and itâs relation to fat loss is often misunderstood. Bottom line is donât think having a âslowerâ metabolism will keep you from being able to lose fat. You may not lose weight as fast or as easy as some individuals, but with the right strategy anyone can lose body fat.

Of all rooms in any houses, a bedroom perhaps is the most private space. This is the place where we spend greater part of our time, retrieve, rest and sleep, feel the most safe and peaceful. Design of bedrooms is very personal. Nevertheless, since all aspects of our lifestyle is influenced, someway or another, by fashionable tendencies, bedroom interior design is not left apart and each year it has its own trends. Some of distinct for 2013 bedroom trends is combination of old and traditional styles with modern and minimalist touch.To get the scoop on the latest trends in bedroom design for 2013, let's highlight some of the key ones.
Hottest Bedroom Interior Design Tendencies for 2013
More and more homeowners prefer open, spacious, hotel-inspired bedrooms with high ceilings, large walk-in closets, bathrooms inside, fireplaces, mini refrigerators and pop-up TV cabinets. It is moving toward becoming a home within the home, an all-in-one place where you can perform daily tasks without leaving the bedroom.
All shades of green are the trendiest color of 2013 in interior design. Bedrooms remain a place of refuge for most with a soothing and calm color palette. By adding right green such as apple green, sage green or lime green, you can bring restfulness and freshness. Green refers not just to a color of wallpapers, textile or furniture. Green means nature – plants, which are healthy with air cleaning effect, natural beauty products, eco-friendly baskets, pictures of grass, fresh flowers and even aquariums.
Touchable textures as suede, fur, velvet, silk, linen and lace are taking over in 2013. Wooden furniture should be reclaimed or antique so you can feel its surface. Yet the must-have of the season is brass. Brass is everywhere. It glamorizes and vivifies any room: metallic lamps, picture frames, bedside tables, flower vases and even brass handles on doors. Texture, thus, is main inspiration of warmth and comfort bringing a proper home atmosphere.
Ethnic ideas
This year it is very popular to build a personal style by using ethnic touches into bedroom interior. Old grandmother rugs, wooden furniture with carvings or wrought iron, sculptures and handmade decorations, these all bring coziness and warmness. African influence is also major trend in 2013 with imitations of animal skin on objects of interior making them luxurious. Wood and bamboo furniture works ideal when teamed with zebra and leopard elements.
Embellished walls
Wall writing and hand sketching is going to be the loudest trend of 2013-2014 in interior design. Like graffiti, it is quit a unique way of expressing yourself. Get out your paintbrushes and create your very own work of art.

That's right, Joe Jackson is at it again. First he was cheerfully hawking blu-ray products on the red carpet, mere days after his son's death, and now it seems that Michael Jackson's father (who was left out of the singer's will) is coming out with new Michael Jackson branded perfume and ice cream!
According to a recent press release, Caesars Palace Las Vegas and Pure Private Night Club are hosting "A Night to Remember: Michael Jackson World Launch Party" on June 9th, where Joe will launch his "tribute" perfume line and issue a press conference at the Sky Tower.
(To promote the perfume, Joe is skipping out on the trial of Conrad Murray, and will instead be busy attending Cannes Film Festival and throwing an exclusive private party -- entitled "Jackson Family Nights" -- at the Cannes Mansion.)
This latest exploitation of Michael Jackson should come as no surprise to fans.
Back in March, the Jackson family patriarch signed a marketing agreement with UD Group International, to create and sell a line of Joe Jackson "Champagne, Ice Cream, Jellys, Lollys, Cosmetique, Jewelry and Fashion (Children and Adult Clothing)."
Included in the line up of potential products is an ice cream bar featuring an M logo, which looks suspiciously similar to Michael Jackson's trademarked M logo.
So far, Joe has been quite adept at squiggling through loop-holes, to avoid the MJ estate coming after him. But this latest move is a little too blatant in using his son's logo and image. It's not hard to imagine that someone might receive "cease and desist" letter in the mail soon!

text: They will be difficult to get. Limited edition. Adorably miniature. And cheekily named. In other words, they have all the makings of a beauty must-have. No surprise, then, that these Tom Ford lipsticks were dreamed up by the man who basically invented the cross-section of desire and commerce. The collection itself is called Lips and Boys, and it is a quite robust group of 50 lipsticks, 36 of which are new shades. Each has a TF-stamped bullet and petite black-and-gold case Ford has called "clutch-sized." Most notably, each one is named for a different man in Mr. Ford's life. There's Holden, Beau, Orlando, all pale nudes; Leonardo, Didier, Wes, plummy burgundies; and Olivier, Julian, Pablo, all various shades of pink. His partner Richard Buckley gets a tonal taupe, and his son Alexander gets two shades: a retro pink and a poppy purple that gives a nod to his nickname, Jack. The lipsticks will go on sale from Black Friday through Cyber Monday on tomford.com. They will also be available on department store e-commerce sites on Cyber Monday. And, post-Christmas, they will be available again for 8 weeks, beginning on December 26, in stores. $32 each, tomford.com

This weekend I photographed my cousins gorgeous twin girls & we grabbed a few shots with my boy. This was taken just before he simultaneously punched both girls in the face!
This is what happened next. I'm pretty sure Haylie decided she does no like boys. Molly didn't seen to care or notice. (Hope I have the right name with the right girl!)
My boy looks a little chubby next to the girls. Our kids are 6 weeks apart, but since they were twins they came a little early.
I love photographing babies!

Rear View Mirror Glue – Which One Is The Best?
It can be frustrating to drive along when your rear view mirror falls down. When this happens it's important to reattach it quickly as this can help you stay safe.
One of the best ways to reattach your mirror is with rear view mirror glue. The key is to find one that will outlast the rigors it will face due to humidity and any rear view mirror accessories you choose like fuzzy dice.
For older model vehicles, many mirrors attach directly to the glass, therefore all you would need to buy is an adhesive. One of the better ones to buy is Customs Accessories Rear View Mirror Adhesive as it provides durability and can hold up well even if you add rear view mirror charms.
If you have a newer vehicle, you may need more than rear view mirror glue to complete the reattachment.
Popular Mechanics recommends you purchase an installation kit. You can find many of these at retailers like Walmart or auto parts stores. When you decide which one to buy do not opt for discount ones, but instead go for a better quality. You may also want to buy another mirror like a blind spot rear view mirror, which can help you locate other drivers.
After purchasing a kit, you'll want to install it in good weather. Ideally, you want to do it when the temperature is in the ballpark of 50-70 degrees. If you have to replace it in the winter, find a heated garage to do the installation. If it's summer, park in the shade on a less humid day.
The first step during installation is to remove the metal button from the mirror. It is rare on most modern cars to use rear view mirror glue to attach it directly to the glass.
Before applying the adhesive, you need to do two things. First, make a small mark on the side up side of the button. This ensures you apply the rear view mirror glue on the correct side. Next, you'll want to remove any remaining adhesive. Most kits include sandpaper which will help you with this process.
From there, you'll want to use rubbing alcohol to clean the glass before reattaching. Now you are ready for the most important part. Take a razor blade to cut open the rear view mirror glue and put a small amount on the button. Size up where you want the mirror to go then push the button onto the glass. You'll want to hold the button in place with some pressure for up to a minute according to Popular Mechanics. From there you will be all set.

PRUNE May-June HARVEST July-September
Cherries are fleshy drupes (stone fruits). There are sweet cherries (Prunnus avium) and sour/acid (Prunus cerasus). The English word 'cherry' derives from the classical Greek through the Latin cerasum, which referred to the ancient Greek place name Cerasus, today the city of Giresun in northern Turkey in the ancient Pontus region.
The harvesting of cherries extends through most of Europe, western Asia and parts of northern Africa, and the fruit has been consumed throughout its range since prehistoric times. A cultivated cherry, as well as the apricot is recorded as having been brought to Rome from northeastern Anatolia, also known as the Pontus region, in 72 BC. A form of cherry was introduced to England at Teynham, near Sittingbourne in Kent (Kent cherries are the most famous in the UK) due to the orders of Henry VIII who had tasted them in Flanders. There were once vast numbers of cherries grown in the UK but the manpower shortages during the world wars started a slide that was exacerbated by cheaper imports. As a consequence, we have lost 95% of our cherry orchards in 60 years. However, cherry trees are becoming a major growing market in the Middle East, Europe, North America and Austrailia, Turkey being most productive producing 480,748 of sweet cherries in 2012 and 187,941 sour ones in the same year. In France since the 1920s, the first cherries of the season come in April or May from the region of Ceret, where the local producers send, as a tradition since 1932, the first crate of cherries to the French president. In Australia, the New South Wales town of Young is called the 'Cherry Capital of Australia' and hosts the National Cherry Festival.
Over the last few decades, plant breeders have succeeded in developing smaller self-fertile trees, ideal for our back gardens as it dispenses then need for giant ladders and endlessly extendable tools like lopers.
Our sweet cherry trees we bought last winter are:
'Stella': A self-fertile, Canadian bred variety producing large dark fruits with an excellent sweet flavour. Highly recommended and popular. Large fruit in a blood red hue. Very productive but sensitive to cold. Harvested from mid-July -August.
'Sunburst': A late season eating cherry which produces large almost black fruits. Supposed to be very productive. Self Fertile. Crops earlier than 'Stella', from mid-July.
'Merchant': A large black, red early-season cherry with a good flavour. Self-sterile – requires a pollinator for a crop.
'Hertford': Requires a pollinator, self-sterile. Black coloured fruit, crops late-mid summer.
The sour cherry tree we own and harvested from for the first time this year since we bought it last January 2015 (and is probably the most famous, popular brand of sour cherry to purchase) is the 'Morello'. For 400 years it has been the people's favourite. The 'Morello' is self-fertile too and very popular for pie-makers. Harvesting often happens from late-August onwards. Sour cherries have twice as much vitamin C as sweet varieties, the trees are more likely to be 'laden' and are happy to face north or east.
All cherries are a target for feathered friends but sweet cherry's Latin name, avium does mean 'for the birds'. Net your trees with insect-friendly netting as soon as you see fruit starting to form after the blossoms. We had a couple of sweet cherries on our 'Sunburst' and the birds found them too quickly this year. We only got to net the 'Morello' and fortunately enjoyed all of the harvest for ourselves.
Sweet cherries love full sun while sour cherries do not mind a shady spot. Cherry blossom tends to form early and can be susceptible to frost damage so be prepared to carefully fleece their delicate blossom or to grow them is a sheltered position. Do remove or peg up the fleece during the day time to allow the insects to pollinate the blossom. Cherries like fertile, well-drained soil. Plant cherry trees in a a hole you have dug and fed with very well-rotted manure, compost and Blood, Fish and Bone or Bonemeal. Gently put the tree in the hole, up to where the knob is on the trunk, no higher. Firm the soil in very well around it by stamping with your feet. For dwarfing root-stocks plant them 2.5m from each other, for large ones 6m. Once planted, water well through dry periods. Put a ring of well-rotted manure, Blood, Fish and Bone and a layer of mulch around them in late winter/early spring (around March) to fertilise these shallow-rooting trees and to set them up for the fruiting season ahead. Do not let the manure touch the trunks of the trees, give them some space or it will wither burn the bark or encourage growth at the bottom of the tree which you don't want, you want it all to be higher up.
Prune and train cherry trees like you would for any other stone fruit in the summer months. Aim for a goblet shape. They fruit in clusters at the base of year old stems and older wood so limit pruning of freestanding cherries to taking out dead and diseased or crossing branches after you have harvested. The disease silver leaf is common amongst cherry trees and finds its way in most easily on pruned branches. This can be reduced by pruning in summer when the rising sap prevents this disease from taking hold. Sour cherry trees are pruned like sweet cherries until the third year. They crop along the length of stems that grew the previous year so cut out a good amount of the older wood that is unproductive and this removal will encourage new growth that will fruit the following year.
Cherries naturally thin their fruit, dropping excess they feel incapable of carrying so you will not need to do any thinning out as you would with apples, plums or pears which feels heartbreakingly difficult. Do net them when they grow or the birds will swoop in at the first sign or ripening.
Bacterial canker and silver leaf are two diseases to be wary of, other than root rots so do be wary not to over-water the trees who detest being too wet (useful for England, yes?). Blackfly or black cherry aphid is another possibility which I had on my cherry tree leaves last year. Try wiping them of if you can as they cause the leaves to curl and promotes fungal growth on the fruit. At the fruiting stage in June and July, the cherry fruit fly may try to lay its eggs in immature fruit, causing fungal infection in the fruit after a rain shower.
Cherries are usually ready for eating in the second half of the summer season, depending on the weather and type of cherry tree. Pick them by their stalks in fry weather. Be careful to avoid bruising the fruit as it is so delicate. Cherries may keep in the fridge for up to a fortnight by the flavour will deteriorate and it is best to eat your sweet ones as soon as possible and to either cook your sour ones immediately or to freeze them. There is no need to remove the stones – unlike plums, once frozen cherry stones come out really easily. When defrosting them, remove them from the freezer for a few hours before cooking them and leave them to drain all of the excess liquid through a sieve into a bowl or cup. This juice can then be drank as a cherry aide.
Cherries don't have a particularly high nutritional content. Dietary fibre and vitamin C are present in moderate content while other vitamins and minerals each supply less than 10% of the Daily Value. Sour cherries have a high content of vitamin C and A than sweet varieties. Despite this, science has proved that eating cherries is very good for you. Studies published suggest that drinking cherry juice is as good as taking prescribed drugs for lowering blood pressure. People who drank 60ml of cherry concentrate, diluted with water, saw their blood pressure drop by 7% within three hours, according to scientists at Northumbria University. This was enough to reduce the risk of a stroke by 38%or heart disease by 23%. Tart cherries contain two powerful compounds, anthocyanins and bioflavonoids. cherry consumption reduces several biomarkers associated with chronic inflammatory diseases, like gout and arthritis. There is even some scientific studies implying that eating cherries can help memory loss, reducing the symptoms of Alzheimers. Cherries are a natural source of melatonin, a hormone that helps control sleep. Studies suggest that particularly tart cherry juice can help one with insomnia sleep.
As I said, we only harvested our 'Morello' sour cherries this year, no sweet varieties available for trying out. I froze a couple of small bags worth and have used one so far. There are plenty of yummy ways to eat sweet cherries raw: think mixing them in fruit salads, yoghurts, ice cream sundae toppings, chocolate fondue or alongside some cheese and walnuts in a salad for a starter or main meal. You would be surprised how many ways there are to use sour cherries that need to be cooked to be eaten. Clafoutis, a batter with cherries and a dash of kirsch thrown in makes a delightful French pudding my mum loves. Stew them with brown sugar to make a compote to eat for breakfast, dessert or as a snack, or even alongside trout, I have read of before. Or use the compost to mix into homemade ice cream to make cherry ice cream or mix in with yoghurt to make frozen cherry yoghurt. For my first adventure with our homegrown sour cherries, I went for the inevitable: cake.
Yoghurt cakes have an amazing texture and the slight sour taste really does accompany the cherries brilliantly, giving the cake flavour. Everyone was very complimentary at the result. I was a little stingy on how many cherries I used, 150g, but feel free to add in more. You can probably change the fruit as well. I can imagine blueberries, perhaps pears or plums or another stone fruit like apricots or nectarines being complimentary with the cake. I have used this recipe before with a bag of frozen cherries bought from Sainsbury's a couple of years ago which did work after a long time of defrosting so it does not have to specifically be sour cherries, it can be sweet – sour will just give you that extra magic flavour.
Cherry Yoghurt Cake
(Serves 10)
-200g salted butter – 200g caster sugar – 4 medium sized eggs – 100g Greek yoghurt – 200g self-raising flour – 1tsp baking powder – 150g cherries
- Preheat the oven 180C. Grease and line a 20cm deep cake tin with baking parchment.
- In a bowl, beat the butter and the sugar together until light and fluffy. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs together and then gradually add them to the butter mixture, whisking well to thoroughly combine them.
- Mix in the Greek yoghurt followed by the flour and baking powder.
- Pour the mixture into the cake tin and scatter the fruit on top (do not press them into the mixture otherwise they will sink to the bottom of the cake during the cooking process. Scattering them allows some to sink a little and some to remain on the top). Bake in the oven for 30 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the centre leaves clean. Leave the cake in the tin for a few minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool.
- Serve in slices either plain, with a large dollop of Greek yoghurt, ice cream or cream. Store in an air-tight container for up to three days.

Valentine's Day may have come and gone, but love is always in the air. At the very least it smells better than the old snow and rock salt combination that's been so prolific these last few days and weeks. Just like with any other special occasion Valentine's Day shouldn't be the only time to celebrate love and appreciation for someone else. It's something to be acted upon often and appreciated always.
When words fail, as they conveniently seem to do when you're saddling up close with that special someone, music has a remarkable way of filling in the gaps and saying it all for you. It doesn't really require a lot of breath to say the "right" thing anyhow. A few lines will do it.
With this in mind, here are a few songs to help you carry that Valentine's Day flavor throughout the week and feed into the moments that come after, each song's individual merits described… in 5 lines or less.
1. Bill Withers – Lovely Day
Timeless, thy name is surely Bill Withers. This breezy ballad has the power to transform even the most mundane task into the most euphoric and blissful experience of one's waking hours. Trust me. You will never look at shoveling the driveway or cleaning the bathroom the same way after giving this song permanent residency on your daily chores playlist. Go forth in good spirits.
2. John Splithoff – Love Affair
And after the working day's done… a helpful, healthy little attitude adjustment. Something to use while you're fluffing the pillows, lighting the candles, creating the after-hours ambience, and setting the mood for an intimate little evening (while maintaining some pep in your step). Have some fun, go all out, and put it all on the tab of this up-and-coming music maker's debonaire baritone. You'll be glad you did.
3. Tedeschi Trucks Band – That Did It
No denying it: TTB does a phenomenal job with their cover of the sultry 60s blues/soul classic, selling it on every possible level, from horns to high hats, guitar licks and tantalizing vocal tricks. This one goes out as much to the single people as it does to those non-single people… and perhaps even more so. It shivers and shakes, beckons– but never begs– you to get good and close so you can know it's every last breath. It clocks in at just under 8 minutes, which might be just enough for some. But don't be surprised if you find yourself wanting more.
4. Al Green – I'm Still In Love With You
Ain't nothing like the real thing, and Mr. Green is the genuine article when it comes to the genre of soulful love songs and slowjams. This one hits all the quintessential bases (not to mention high notes): an airy, heavenly high tenor and falsetto accompanied by a faithful, complimentary cacophony of horns, backing female vocals, and groovin', happ'nin' beat. This puts the delicious strawberry jam topper on your three-day weekend toast of wholesome wheat goodness. Play on, Mr. Green, play on.
5. Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings – Slow Down Love
Days get hectic, people get crazy. Put this one on and do as the lady says. Slow it down, keep it cool, count your blessings, and reconnect with what really matters: making time for intimate moments with the ones you love. The rest of the world can wait. Get yourself back in the moment you're in right now.
Now doesn't that feel good? Doesn't that feel right?

In Indonesia you can enjoy different islands at different times of the year, but the differences in climate in the territory are actually slightly marked, even if in general Indonesia is subject to an equatorial climate, hot and humid.
Climate in Indonesia
The archipelago who stretches along a horizontal line, except for the large island of Borneo, enjoys a humid climate (which generates its great luxuriance). Everywhere in Indonesia you can enjoy temperatures never below 23 ° C with a maximum of 32-34°C, with a rainy season from November to March and a dry season from April to October.
The real rainy months are January and February. Generally avoid Indonesia in January, even if you will still enjoy beautiful days. As this is the "low season" deserted by tourists, you can beneficiate from very interesting prices.
The temperature of the ocean surface does not drop below the 26-28°C, all year.
The dry season in Lombok
It normally extends from early April to late October, with temperatures between 26 and 32°C on the coast. The air is dry, seldom rain (especially in July and August). It is also the "high season" and rates of course are at their maximum (especially in July and August).
Rainy season (monsoon)
The rainy season extends from early November to late March, with stronger rainfalls in January and February. However, throughout this season and depending on where you stay on the island (north or south), you could not get more than a few tropical showers for one to two hours a day. Then the sun comes back and the colors explode! On the other hand it will be the mangoes season that you will enjoy for breakfast or in fabulous local dishes.
Here is a picture taken at the end of the first week of December, Gili Nanggu island in the south-west of Lombok:
The months of January and February can have rain records, especially in the north of the island. In January it can rain for several days in a row without stopping. If it does not rain, especially at the beginning and end of the rainy season, humidity in the air can reach 85%. It is time to enjoy the constant breeze from the sea.
Here is a link for 5 days Lombok weather forecast.

Hospital Trip Hazard Repairs
Trip Hazard Repair at Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland
Settled sidewalks at entry into medical office building caused significant trip hazards. A patient and their family member tripped while entering a building as a result. There were also large (3+ inches) trip hazards at four other locations around the campus requiring trip hazard repair.
All work had to be completed off hours due to high pedestrian traffic. Due to mobility restrictions of many pedestrians, including wheelchair and walker-assistance, all areas being repaired had to remain open to pedestrian traffic during repairs.
High density polyurethane grouting to stabilize and lift settled concrete for the trip hazard repair work.
CJGeo mobilized two polyurethane grouting crews, who lifted about 800 square feet of concrete to repair 12 different trip hazards. The work took a total of five hours, and was completed without creating any passage hazards for pedestrians or any disruption to operation of the facilities.

Do you know those girls that look calm on the outside but are actually at war with their selves on the inside? They can so play with their feelings and your feelings and even steer you in the wrong direction and you wouldn't be able to do anything except to look on and try to comprehend what just happened in the last four, five minutes, months, years? You'd think they have a thing for you when actually you are just a quick cereal taken before the real meal gets ready.
Uhm so as I was saying, as we have the f#ck boy term for guys who act like losers, love playing girls around, hate commitments, total cotton candy heads , so do we have it for girls too but I don't know what it is called and uhn uhn it is definitely not sl#t, thank you very much. Let's just call them the I AM NOT THAT INTO YOU kinda girls.
They are so confused, and always have to ask people to tell them what they want, M has kept F around for several months now and she still wouldn't say no or yes whenever he brings up the issue of dating, she doesn't know whether she should stay single and form the singlegirlrocks crew with her single friends or join the Bae bus, like seriously?
She keeps evading and evading but ends every conversation with sweet nothings, makes appearances in public with him, visits his parents house with him every Saturday and smiles shyly when she get called wifey but gives it to him when they are out of earshot, talking nonstop for thirty minutes .
She is not that into you but gets jealous and accuses you of cheating on her when she sees texts you exchange with other girls on your phone? She would cry for days and threatens to kill herself,seriously girl I thought there were no strings attached?
I really don't get the idea of leaving boys hanging around in the backyard, at the park, near the window, on the cloth line, on your WhatsApp, in the Mall, while you survey from afar still undecided whether you should go for it or nah, seriously girl? You need a thorough sit down session at Dr. I FIX YOUR LIFE IN THIRTY MINUTES office to know what you want, if you want to be independent and run your own thing just do it, if you need to depend on Bae when the times are hard then get Baed, no shoulders would be available from we your single friends because we would be so mad you left us, and so? Who cares? it is your life, you chose that part so just accept the responsibilities involved and stop making excuses. Remember there is NO there is YES and there is MAYBE… Weak people use that.
What are your thoughts on this piece? Are there other characteristics of the I AM NOT JUST THAT INTO YOU GIRL you know? #xoxo

We Can Die Happy
Mutually Detrimental
Visit Tennis at Facebook and iTunes
This indie pop duo comprising husband and wife Patrick Riley (guitar, keyboards, production) and Alaina Moore (vocals, keyboards) have release "We Can Die Happy", a five-track EP. This work follows closely on the heels of the year's earlier album release "Yours Conditionally". While the album is worthy of attention, there's reason to show favor for the EP. It's technically a bit better than the album and the songs have an edge with their very upbeat mood as in the pop "Born to be Needed" or the danceable "Diamond Rings". This Pick of the Week is sure to make you feel good and put a smile on your face.

Shiho Fukada | The Samurai of Fukushima10:33:00 AM
|Photo © Shiho Fukada - Courtesy Bloomberg
The annual festival involves horse-riding participants don elaborate armor like samurais, who aim to recreate scenes from Japan's Sengoku period (1467–1603) which was marked by social upheaval, political intrigue and near-constant military conflict.
The festival's original purpose was a military exercise designed to sharpen the fighting skills of the samurai. One event in the festival, Shinki Sodatsusen, sees the samurai compete for flags that have been shot into the air. The festival has been designated as an "intangible cultural asset" by the Japanese government.
Shiho Fukada is an Emmy-nominated filmmaker, cinematographer, and photojournalist based in Boston and Tokyo. She started her career as a news photographer in New York and has a decade of experience shooting and producing stories nationally and internationally. She currently pursues underreported stories both in video and photography. She has a degree in English literature from Sophia University in Japan and received a diploma in Multimedia Journalism from Ateno de Manila University in the Philippines.
Her work has been featured in numerous publications including The New York Times, Time, Stern, New Yorker, Le Monde, CNN, MSNBC and others.
Incidentally, I've never heard of Bloomberg Pursuits, which describes itself as its hub for lifestyle news and luxury reviews, your guide to the best food, fashion, travel, cars, watches, real estate, gadgets, wine, and cocktails.
And here is a short movie on the Soma Nomaoi festival.

Data Collector Architecture and Processing
The data collector is integrated with SQL Server Agent and Integration Services, and uses both extensively. Before you work with the data collector, you should therefore understand certain concepts related to each of these SQL Server components.
SQL Server Agent is used to schedule and run collection jobs. You should understand the following concepts:
Job step
Job schedule
Proxy accounts
For more information, see Automating Administrative Tasks (SQL Server Agent).
Integration Services (SSIS) is used to execute packages that collect data from individual data providers. You should be familiar with the following SSIS tools and concepts:
SSIS package
SSIS package configuration
For more information, see Integration Services Packages.
Data Collector Architecture
The following illustration shows the architectural model for data collection and storage.
As shown in the illustration, the components in the model are grouped into the following categories:
Storage components are the databases that contain configuration information and the collected data.
Execution components are used for data collection and storage.
API components are used to enable interaction between the user interfaces and the data collector.
Client components are the user interfaces for the data collector.
The following sections provide more detail about these categories and components.
The data collector stores data in two places: the msdb database and the management data warehouse.
The data collector implements user-schema separation, which was introduced in SQL Server 2005. For more information, see User-Schema Separation.
msdb System Database
The data collector uses the msdb database for storing configuration information, run-time information, auditing, and collection history information. This database must be present on the instance of SQL Server that runs the data collector. Using msdb provides the following benefits:
All the data needed to configure and run the data collector is in one location.
Data collection configuration can be deployed across several servers without having to use the file system.
The data collector can use existing SQL Server security mechanisms to protect the data. In addition, database roles can provide granular security, and there is no need to implement cross-database chaining.
Since msdb is a relational database, it is possible to ensure the referential integrity of the configuration and run-time data.
In addition to storing collector-specific information, msdb is also used to store SQL Server Agent job information and SSIS package information.
Data Collection Configuration
Data collection configuration-related tables and views include information about collection sets, collector types, and collection items. The tables and views also contain global data collector parameters, such as the location of the management data warehouse. Database roles for the data collector and management data warehouse are also stored here. For more information about the columns for each data collection configuration view, see Data Collector Views (Transact-SQL).
Do not modify data in the configuration tables. The data in these tables must be inserted, updated, and deleted in specific ways that are enforced by stored procedures. Table names and definitions can change when you update the application, and might change in future releases. Instead of directly using the tables, use the documented stored procedures and views provided with the data collector to access instance and application data.
SQL Server Agent Jobs
SQL Server Agent job information is stored in msdb using a separate schema. This job information is created or updated whenever collection sets are added, removed, or changed. When a collection set is started, SQL Server Agent uses this information to execute data collector jobs.
SQL Server Integration Services Packages
SSIS packages are stored in msdb using existing SSIS storage tables. The data collector uses these packages to collect data and upload it to the management data warehouse.
Auditing and History
Dedicated storage is provided for saving detailed audit and historical records of data collection runs. The data collector run-time component and the SSIS packages generate events during data collection. This information is used to monitor and troubleshoot the collection process.
Management Data Warehouse
The management data warehouse is a relational database that contains all the data that is retained. This database can be on the same system as the data collector, or it can be on another computer.
Components in the execution category run in-memory and are responsible for collecting and storing data.
SQL Server Agent
SQL Server Agent hosts the data collector run-time component. Data collection is scheduled as a SQL Server Agent job. When the job is run, it invokes the data collector run-time component using the parameters required to create and execute a collection set.
Data Collector Run-Time Component
The data collector run-time component is hosted by a stand-alone process called Dcexec.exe. This component manages data collection based on the definitions provided in a collection set, and can accept any collection set as input. The data collector run-time component is responsible for loading and executing the SSIS packages that are part of a collection set.
A collection set is run in one of the following collection and upload modes:
Non-cached mode. Data collection and upload are on the same schedule. The packages start, collect and upload data at their configured frequency, and run until they are finished. After the packages finish, they are unloaded from memory.
Cached mode. Data collection and upload are on different schedules. The packages collect and cache data until they receive a signal to exit from a loop control-flow task. This ensures that the data flow can be executed repeatedly, which enables continuous data collection.
The data collector run-time component can only run data collection or data upload. It cannot run these tasks concurrently.
SSIS Run-Time Component
The data collector run-time component invokes the SSIS packages that the data collector uses. The packages are run in-process.
The two most important tasks for the SSIS packages are data collection and data upload, which are carried out by separate packages.
The collection package gathers data from a data provider and keeps it in temporary storage. If configured to do so, this package also appends additional information to the data it collects, such as the snapshot time or information about the source of the data.
The upload package reads the data in temporary storage, processes the data as required (for example, removing unnecessary data points, normalizing the data, and data aggregation), and then uploads the data to the management data warehouse. The upload is done as a bulk insert to minimize the impact on server performance.
Separating data collection and data upload provides more flexibility and efficiency. This design supports scenarios where snapshots of the data are captured at frequent intervals (for example, every 15 seconds), but the collected data only needs to be uploaded every hour. Data collection and upload frequency should be determined by the monitoring requirements of a particular SQL Server installation.
Temporary Storage
Temporary storage is used during data collection to store property values exposed by collection sets or calculated dynamically. These values can be raw data obtained during the collection process, or processed data, such as aggregated data.
The API category includes the class library and object model used to configure, maintain, and extend the data collector. Client access to the system database must come through the API.
Class Library
The data collector has its own namespace and is independent of SQL Server Management Objects (SMO).
Stored Procedures and Views
The stored procedures and views provide Create, Read, Update, and Delete access to data collector configuration data and the management data warehouse.
The data collector uses SQL Server Management Studio and a Windows Powershell™ command-line interface as clients for configuring and using the data collector. You can use SQL Server Management Studio to do the following:
Configure data collection using the Configure Data Collection Wizard in Object Explorer.
Enable or disable data collection by using Object Explorer.
Start or stop a specific collection set by using Object Explorer.
View or configure data collection or data collection set properties by using Object Explorer.
View reports based on historical data stored in the management data warehouse. This database can be located on the local instance or on another server. The latter is recommended.
You can use the Windows Powershell command-line interface to do the following:
Start or stop a collection set.
Add or remove a collection set.
Change the editable properties of a collection set.
Component Interaction and Processing
The following table describes the interaction between the various components in the data collector architecture.
SQL Server Management Studio
Data collector API
The client communicates with the API to configure the data collector.
SQL Server Management Studio
Management data warehouse
The client has Read access to the management data warehouse and can obtain the data that is collected.
SQL Server Management Studio, console client
Data collector API
Both clients can configure the data collector programmatically by using the API.
Data collector API
Stored procedures and views
The API uses stores procedures, which have Read and Write access to the data collector configuration information and the management data warehouse.
msdb - Job definition
SQL Server Agent
SQL Server Agent can read the job definition. The job definition contains job schedule and job configuration information.
SQL Server Agent
Data collector run-time component
SQL Server Agent invokes the data collector in response to the job definition.
Data collector run-time component
msdb - SSIS packages
The data collector loads the SSIS packages and can use SSIS to execute these packages.
Data collector run-time component
msdb - auditing and history
The data collector has Write access to this part of msdb so it can record the events generated during data collection.
Management data warehouse
The SSIS package has Write access to the management data warehouse so it can upload the data that is collected.
Temporary storage
During the collection process, SSIS can create, use, and delete any temporary storage that it requires.
msdb - Data collection configuration
msdb - Job definition
Information in the data collection configuration is mapped to the job definition. For more information, see "Collection Set and Job Mapping" below.
Collection Set and Job Mapping
A key element of the data collector architecture is the mapping between the collection sets defined in the data collector configuration, and the jobs in the job definition.
A collection set is a group of items that are instances of the collector types, which are defined by using SSIS packages. As an instance in memory, every collection set has a lifetime, which is described in more detail later in this topic. Each collection set is run by the data collector run-time component when it is invoked by a SQL Server job. The following examples illustrate how collection sets map to jobs.
Collection Sets
Example 1
This example collection set, "Base Performance Data," contains separate collection and upload packages to support different schedules for the collection and upload packages.
Collection Set: Name = "Base Performance Data"
Collection Item: Name = "SQL_RE_Active_Requests_History"
Collection package: ARH_Collect.dtsx
Upload package: ARH_Upload.dtsx
Collection Frequency: 1 second
Collection Item: Name = "SQL_RE_Wait_Statistics"
Collection package: WS_Collect.dtsx
Upload Package: WS_Upload.dtsx
Collection Frequency: 15 seconds
Collection Item: Name = "SQL_RE_Performance_Counters"
Collection package: PC_Collect.dtsx
Upload package: PC_Upload.dtsx
Input: Counter – Locks: Current Latch Waits
Collection Frequency: 15 seconds
Collection Item: Name = "WIN_OS_Performance_Counters"
Collection package: OS_PC_Collect.dtsx
Upload package: OS_PC_Upload.dts
Input: Counter – Process: % Processor Time
Collection Frequency: 15 seconds
Upload Schedule: Every 30 minutes
Example 2
This example collection set, "Server Configuration Data," contains a single package that gets Transact-SQLbased snapshots and uploads them to the management data warehouse as they are obtained.
Collection Set: Name = "Server Configuration Data"
Collection Item: Name = "SQL_RE_TSQL"
Collection and upload package: TSQL_Upload.dtsx
Input: Transact-SQL query for database sizes
Collection Frequency: <none>
Collection Item: Name = "SQL_RE_TSQL"
Collection and upload package: TSQL_Upload.dtsx
Input: Transact-SQL query for configuration options
Collection Frequency: <none>
Upload Schedule: Every 24 hours
When the collection sets shown in the preceding examples are created, SQL Server Agent jobs are created to perform the data collection. The following rules govern job creation:
Data collection by different collection sets are executed as separate jobs.
Collection sets that use cached collection mode are scheduled as jobs that start when the SQL Server Agent starts. These jobs run continuously and are controlled by the data collector run-time component.
Collection sets that use non-cached collection mode are scheduled as normal SQL Server Agent jobs. These jobs use a SQL Server Agent schedule that matches the schedule defined in the collection set. The actual duration of execution can be customized by the user.
The following examples illustrate jobs that use the preceding rules. These jobs can run the collection set examples provided.
Jobs for Collection Set Example 1
Two jobs are used to handle this collection set: one for the collection and one for the upload.
Job 1,Name: "Base Performance Data Collection"
Category: "Data Collector"
Job Step 1:
Collection Set: Name = "Base Performance Data"
Collection Mode: Collection Only, Continuous Run
Packages run: ARH_Collect, WS_Collect, PC_Collect, OS_PC_Collect
Schedule: At Agent start-up
Job 2,Name: "Base Performance Data Upload"
Category: "Data Collector"
Job Step 1:
Collection Set: Name = "Base Performance Data"
Collection Mode: Upload Only, Single Run
Packages run: ARH_Upload, WS_Upload, PC_Upload, OS_PC_Upload
Schedule: Every 30 minutes, Starting at 12:00 AM PST
Job for Collection Set Example 2
One job is created to handle the collection set.
Job 3,Name = "Server Configuration Data"
Category = "Data Collector"
Job Step 1:
Collection Set, Name = "Server Configuration Data"
Collection Mode: Collection and Upload, Single Run
Packages run: TSQL_Upload, TSQL_Upload
Schedule: Every Day at 12:00 AM PST
Each of the above examples specifies the collection mode for the job. This information is used to manage collection and upload processing when the collection set is running.
The Data Collector and Collection Sets
Because a data collector and a collection set are the elements of data collection that you interact with, you should understand their valid states and the concept of a collection set lifetime.
Valid States
To turn data collection on and off, you can enable or disable data collection. If you want to make any change that affects collector-wide parameters, such as changes to the management data warehouse connection string, you must first disable data collection.
If you want to make any collection set configuration changes, you must first stop the collection set.
If you disable data collection when collection sets are running, these collections sets enter a paused state until you re-enable data collection. At that point, the collection sets resume execution. Any collection set that was not running when you disabled data collection will remain stopped. You can start any collection set while data collection is disabled. However, the collection set will not start execution until you enable data collection.
Collection Set Lifetime
After a collection set starts, it can undergo several transitions in its lifetime. These possible transitions, and the actions that occur during them, include the following:
A collection set object is created in memory.
All properties can be freely set and modified.
Add collector type
A new collection item is added to the collection set.
The collection set verifies that all collection items reference the same target root.
Remove collector type
- An existing collection item is removed from the collection set.
The collection set verifies that it contains at least one collection item.
Information about all collection items and their properties, collection frequencies, and all the properties of the collection set is inserted into data collector configuration storage.
The initial state of the collection set is set to inactive.
The SQL Server Agent job or jobs that will run the collection set are created and linked to the collection set.
The initial state of the SQL Server Agent jobs is set to inactive.
The state of the collection set changes to running.
Associated SQL Server Agent jobs are enabled.
If a job is flagged to run on Agent startup, the job starts immediately.
The state of the collection set changes to stopped.
All running jobs for the collection set are stopped and disabled.
All the jobs associated with the collection set are set to inactive.
All the jobs associated with the collection set are deleted from memory.
All the objects (collection items, collection set) in data collector configuration that are associated with the collection set are deleted.
Run-Time Processing
The following illustration provides a high-level and simplified view of run-time processing when a collection set is started and data is collected and uploaded. Although this illustration shows data collection and data upload as two separate job processes, they can also be a single job, as shown in the preceding examples.
Data Collection
In the preceding illustration, data collection process steps are prefixed with "C". The processing steps are as follows:
A stored procedure starts the collection set. The state of the collection set in msdb is changed to Running. This state change enables the SQL Server Agent jobs that are associated with the collection set.
SQL Server Agent starts the job as follows:
If the collection set mode is set to cached, the collection job is started immediately.
If the collection set mode is set to non-cached, the collection job is started according to the schedule that is configured.
When a job starts, it spawns a process to execute the data collector run-time component (Dcexec.exe) and tells it to run the collection package associated with the collection set.
When Dcexec.exe starts, it reads the data collector configuration in msdb to find out which collection mode, cached or non-cached, to use.
The data collector run-time component uses the SSIS run-time component to run the collection packages that are defined for the collection set.
The collection packages run until they receive a signal to stop or until they reach a predefined endpoint. The collection packages save the data that is collected in a staging area until it is uploaded.
The design of the collector type for the collection set determines what kind of staging area is used. The staging area could be a shared memory area, temporary files, or a message queue.
Data Upload
In the preceding illustration, the data upload process steps are prefixed with "U". The processing steps are as follows:
When an upload is required, a stored procedure starts the job, which is handled by SQL Server Agent.
SQL Server Agent starts the job as follows:
If an on-demand upload request is submitted by the user, the upload job is started immediately.
If there is no on-demand upload request, the upload job is started according to the schedule that is configured for the collection set.
When a job starts, it spawns a process to execute the data collector run-time component (Dcexec.exe) and tells it to run the upload package associated with the collection set.
When Dcexec.exe starts, it reads the data collector configuration in msdb to find out how to handle the upload (for example, the connection string to the management data warehouse, or any data processing that is required).
The data collector run-time component uses the SSIS run-time component to run the upload packages that are defined for the collection set.
The upload package reads the data that is held in the staging area and performs the required transformations, such as normalization or sampling. When the transformations are finished, the upload package connects to the management data warehouse and inserts the data.
After the upload is finished, the process ends, but the collection set state is unchanged. The next upload starts according to the collection set schedule.

I hate this place. I really, really do. On principle. Kind of like Wal Mart. But, Wal-Mart is just horrible. I think Starbucks would be better if they got rid of the cookie-cutter image and each individual store was allowed to reflect the personalities of their workers. Wouldn't that be cool?
If I ran a Starbucks….never mind, if the BACARTIS was real (hopefully it will be one day), it'd be filled with the aroma of roasting coffee beans, music of the good variety would filter in through speakers, the tables would be useful (not just for ornamental purposes) the wifi would be strong, and artwork of every kind would practically drip from the walls. It would be warm and inviting for writers and readers. Not loud, but not quiet either.
As it stands right now, I'm blocking out the crappy music overhead with Fergie and Goon Rock. It WAS Principles of Accounting I thanks to YouTube and JCCC. Which is a college somewhere. And infinitely better at teaching online students than Park University.
Which is why I want to take a little bit of a break to warm my feet and talk to you guys.
Apologise, and beg your forgiveness, really. But talk.
I have to push Annie back.
Way back.
Please don't hate me. Please let me explain.
I am admitting defeat. Faced with a 'D' in Accounting and two weeks left in the semester (thank God) I have to admit defeat. I have been stressed. And I mean collapsed in the shower in tears and dry sobs stressed out. Not because the class is hard. Accounting really isn't difficult once you understand-and get the hang of-it. The problem is, and has been for the last five weeks, I have been literally teaching myself how to do both statistics and accounting. Mum and dad have been the greatest gift this math stupid person could ask for, but they can only do so much. What I haven't managed to teach myself, I have turned to YouTube. Fortuitously, there are teachers out there who actually give a damn and post videos (homemade or otherwise) that take the classes section by section and break them down into stupid.
Which is just wonderful for me. Except that I am working backward. I have to learn twelve chapters of Accounting in the matter of a week and a half, whilst doing my homework and learning more in statistics. Lucky for me, I don't have to stretch as far in statistics, because the final exam is both open book and open note. And I plan to make good use of those two facts. Accounting, however, is an entirely different story.
Closed notes. Closed book.
And me with only a rudimentary understanding of what the hell is going on.
I have a marvelous ability to pick up on things quickly, to jump in and figure everything out as I go along. Trial and error, baby. It's what made me so good at waitressing/catering over in England. And what made me a passable Navy cop.
But not in college. There is a place for jumping right in without guidance. College is not it.
I could go on and on about the class and EXACTLY what I think of it and how it is absolute bullshit that the government (GI BILL) is wasting its money, but I won't. Maybe later.
What I will tell you is that it's bullshit that I have to teach myself a class. In college. If I wanted to teach myself something, it would be how to draw realistic portraiture, or how to do a push-up properly. One of the two things I want to learn. My sternum won't allow the push-up. That's not the point. The point is, I-via the government-am spending a lot of money on these classes and I am at a disadvantage.
And I'm getting a D. Which wouldn't have been a big deal in high school but, in college, it is. And I fucking hate it. I haven't gotten anything lower than a C previously. That was bad. A D is so much worse. Part of it is my fault because of a test. A good majority of the blame lies with my teacher.
To add insult to injury, I have absolutely NO time to edit. None. Nada. Zilch. Maybe a little here and there, but not enough that I can sit down and bang out three or four chapters and get myself caught up in enough time to send her out to beta readers with a buffer to get her back and make necessary changes. Even if I extended her out until November, I wouldn't have enough time. I'd be pushing out a half-assed product, and that isn't fair. Not to me, not to Annie, and not to you guys.
So, I'm begging and pleading with you guys. Be patient with me. PLEASE be patient. Classes are almost over. And I'm switching colleges and majors. NaNoWriMo is coming up and with that a whole new book I get to talk about.
Annie will be edited and sent out and re-edited. And, if you guys can hold out until Valentine's Day, I promise the wait will be worth it.

The secret of success for your online dating :
The secret of success for online dating is for you to understand that not necessarily on the first date you will be able to establish a long lasting relationship, it might happen, but that is not always the case.
For many years, in most human societies, dating among people of different sex with love or friendship purposes were made between people who knew each other or were connected through the environment of people they usually gathered with, it was not possible to try to link with people you did not knew, mainly for security reasons and, also, because of the conservative attitude that prevailed in society.
However, the emergence of the Internet not only resulted in mass access to information and knowledge, but it also brought light to new ways of relating, one of them at the beginning was through the e – mail, which basically allowed us to maintain contact with people not necessarily known for our environment, but friendships that one had in other cities of the country and the world and almost never saw them or people that, for work or trading relations, we maintained contact with.
But just then, we saw that the broad field of Internet could be used to establish new ways of relating with people and, from 1997, virtual communities began to be created, communities that were identified between each other by common interests, such as work, reading, games and friendship. Thus came the Facebook social network, aimed for college students but today it is one of the communities with a higher acceptance rates, including any user on the Internet, MySpace aimed at teenagers, Twitter directed to any person who has Internet access… It was not long before it received an unexpected twist, the emergence of virtual communities for friendly relations and there emerged the first dating communities.
Those who had access to these kind of communities were single people or linked romantically in real life, who decided to upload their profile in the web, stating themselves as people interested in getting involved in serious long lasting romantic relationships or simply looking for people to spend some time with; either case, with people who do not physically know each other and raised the famous "virtual boyfriends or girlfriends" phrase, people who, after contacting each other, managed to achieve a certain level of trust like a real girlfriend or boyfriend, until one of them decides to take the first step in seeking to move the virtual connection to the real world and agreed to meet at a specific place in time and particular day, thus generating an online date.
But what is the secret for keeping this online date from failure, because you have to remember that it will be the first time you are face to face with him or her, and the charm of the unknown will evaporate at the first visual contact, so the secret of success of this first online date remain solely in terms of how we have been mentally preparing for keeping it from failure.
The bottom line is that both know the physical appearance through photos, which allow quick placement on the first date and an opportunity to avoid bad first impression, in physical matters.
It is necessary that all prior conversations actually reflect what we are, otherwise the disappointment that one of us might suffer, will make the first appointment is a complete failure. It is important that we reflect confidence and trust in ourselves, which will make the lady or girl we will meet to feel safe and trust by our side.
We must ensure that the conversation runs quietly and show our willingness to listen carefully when we are talked to, in order to be able to receive the same bias in our conversation. Let's not force the situation of wanting to learn every single detail about the other one, let her tell us as she develops the willingness to do so.
The place you choose to gather must be a busy public place and preferably choose the afternoon, allowing us to locate quickly.
In short, as the song says "there is no way, the way is made by walking", good luck on your first online but not blind date.

Form 1065 - Business Partnerships
All domestic partnerships and LLCs must submit Form 1065. The IRS defines a partnership as two or more people who carry on a trade or business together. Foreign partnerships with income in the United States and non-profit religious organizations must also file Form 1065. Form 1065 requires a great deal of information about the business's annual financials, including gross sales as well as deductions and expenses such as rent, wages to employees, debts, interest on business loans, and other costs of operating business.
Filing a 1065 Form
Form 1065 does not determine how much tax a partnership owes, however, it gives the IRS a snapshot of the company's financials over the year. Partners involved in the business must still report their share of income from the business on their individual tax returns, and they must pay income tax.
Form 1040 - Individual
A 1040 Form is a standard form that individuals use to file their income tax returns. The taxpayer is required to disclose their financial income in order to determine whether they owe taxes or whether they are due for a refund. 1040 Forms need to be filed with the IRS by April 15.
Filing a 1040 Form
The initial form is short, however, taxpayers may need to fill out extra sections called schedules. For example, Schedule B is an extra section for reporting interest and ordinary dividends. Additionally, there are several variations of the 1040 depending on your individual tax situation.
Form Schedule C - Self Employed
Schedule C is an IRS form filed by sole proprietors and other self-employed taxpayers. IRS form Schedule C accompanies the main tax return form, 1040, for taxpayers who must report a profit or loss from their business. This form is also where business owners report their tax-deductible business expenses, such as marketing, transportation, commissions, supplies, utilities, and many others.
Filing a Schedule C
Using the Schedule C, the taxpayer calculates the business's net profit or loss for income tax purposes, which will be transferred to form 1040 and is used in calculating the taxpayer's overall tax liability for the year. There are also a few other less common scenarios that require the use of Schedule C.
