Great handbag
"I saw this in the store in ivory and went home and ordered it in black. The side compartments are excellent and I love the fact that they can be secured via the snap down cover vs just an open pocket that things can fall out of. Great handbag."

Blues too different for my taste
"I ordered my regular size 8. This shoe runs short, was unable to try on. Try ordering a half size up. The blue suede is an incredible color. The wedge blue is a different color blue with black reptile print. I personally thought the two blues did not compliment each other. Just off enough that I did not order a size up."

"This shoe was cuter than I expected. Very comfy but still gives the illusion of the heel less shoes that are trending right now. I ordered the shoes in black, but I plan to order the blue as well."

Molokidan so stupid to because he got the first part right on the color pages then made Rayleigh say a year. Of course he did it on purpose to piss of the OP fans he ain't stupid.
Yo you know what I just realized, I hope nobody has stated this, but those fake SH could be the perfect getaway for the real ones, because the Tenryuubito seem like the type to not let shit go real easily and I remember the woman being like super pissed about it, so say the marines come, they come scoop up the fake one's and make it a very pleasant reunion without having to sail off with cannon balls being shot at them, any thoughts?
I think here will be some confusion with the Marines regarding fake v. Real Straw Hats, but before the Straw Hats leave the Marines will realize there mistake. I don't think that the Marines will chase them to Fishman Island, but I could be wrong.
G1 will send a message to Marine HQ and they will be waiting for them when they exit Fishman island, but Jimbei will help them get past the blockade.
If any of the real strawhats are gonna fight, its only gonna be 3 or 5 of them...
Why? Because:
Luffy showed his haki power
Zoro showed his new sword power
Nami showed her new weather power
Usopp showed his new sniper/pop green power
Sanji - nothing yet except that target thing but that was a gag
Chopper - nothing yet
Robin - nothing yet
Franky upgraded Sunny's weapon system but could fight
Brook - nothing yet
so it will probably be:
Luffy vs. Sentomaru
Brook and Chopper vs. PX-5
Robin and Franky vs. PX-7
(they will say something like... "Its our time to protect you")
edit: but then again those fake mugiwara's will bring forth the rookie brothers and 100 pirate captains and their crews and epic war will begin... Luffy and crew beat them up with one attack each (to keep power-ups still a mystery) and head off to Fishman island, while they are submerging Sentomaru appears and detains the fake mugi's and their fleet

Every Degrassi Episode Ever is coming.Posted on 12/27/2010 by Lisa
Kick off the new year, Degrassi style! Starting on Saturday, 1/1/1,1 at noon et, TeenNick is bringing you "Every Degrassi Ever" Weekends. To prepare for all the episodes coming our way, I'm going to post some classic Degrassi pics in the blog this week. Here goes...
Please note that Emma has dolphins on her pants.
So... who's ready for a Degrassi new year?
We got you a present!Posted on 12/25/2010 by Mary
We at TeenNick wish you Happy Holidays, Happy New Year and Happily Ever After Your Whole Life Long!
And, good news! We picked your names out of the Secret Santa hat, so here's your prezzie... a new Degrassi poster! It looks like this:
Some assembly required... we broke it down into three 8x10 pieces:
Right-click and save for part 1
Right-click and save for part 2
Right-click and save for part 3
This way you can print those out and put 'em together to make your very own Deg-oration. Oh my God, I just said Deg-oration, clearly I need to stop working and go to Australia. Have a GREAT holiday, enjoy your winter break, I hope it snows only exactly as much as you want it to, and I hope all of your wishes come true forever. Unless you make bad wishes.
Enjoy your new poster!
The 12 Boys of Degrassi: Wesley!Posted on 12/15/2010 by Lisa
It's Day 3 of the Degrassi Boys celebration, time to celebrate...
Anya described Wesley as "the type of guy that girls love." He's super-sweet, he's not fake, and if you win him at a bachelor auction, he'll save up his allowance till he can afford to rent a limo for your date. He's THAT nice.
My favorite things about Wesley are that he's a really good friend (I still can't believe he forgave Dave after the taser incident) and he's really funny. Exhibit A: His election-themed rap:
I love this Wesley quote from when Drew's trying to teach him about girls:
Drew: "If you wanna impress Anya so she'll bid on you at the bachelor auction you're gonna need one thing."
Wesley: "A bowtie!"
What are your favorite Wesley moments, quotes, or election-themed rap lyrics? Post them in the comments. And check out our full Wesley Playlist for more chuckle-worthy and cringe-worthy Wesley videos.
Oh, Wesley. You are proof that a boy can be awkward and awesome at the same time.
The 12 Boys of Degrassi: Peter!Posted on 12/14/2010 by Mary
Day 2 of our celebration of the spirit of Degrassi Boys brings us....
Though he first came into our lives as the spoiled son-of-a-principal who showed everyone Manny's boobs and was preeetty much responsible for Sean going to jail, Peter has redeemed himself in fits and starts over the years. There was that time he emotionally supported Darcy through the aftermath of her rape, the way he was there for Emma when she struggled with an eating disorder... and of course, what one could argue was his most impressive act of selflessness: standing by Riley and keeping a secret after Riley misunderstood their friendship and tried to kiss him.
Plus there was that whole thing where he met his little sister and kissed her little baby head:
Look at him kiss that baby's head! He's such a sweet little baby-head-kisser! It's not fair that Peter kept losing girlfriends to other continents (and meth habits), but it's always nice to see him looking so contented and sage-like behind the counter at the Dot.
What was your favorite Peter moment, quote, or button-down shirt? Drop it in the comments! And you can also check out our full Peter Playlist with a bounty of Peter-y episodes and clips. Enjoy!
The 12 Boys of Degrassi: Spinner!Posted on 12/13/2010 by Mary
'Tis the season! Whatever holiday(s) are on your mind right now, we're adding one to the list: the joyful, boytastic, and utterly non-denominational celebration of Degrassi Manhood that is...
Every day for the next 12 days we'll be rhapsodizing about the specimens of Degrassi boyhood who made 2010 shine so brightly.
Our first Boy of Degrassi is... ♥Spinner♥.
In his own special, Spinner-y way, he's been an embodiment of what Degrassi is about. Remember when he was a homophobe... but learned to get over it for Marco's sake? The time he battled cancer and won? And all those times he messed up, but sought and found the forgiveness of his friends?
And of course we mustn't forget his "health food" boners; his hair (and his other hair, and his other other hair); the way he said "She used me for my body"; ... and of course, that time he married Emma (!). What have been your favorite Spinner moments/quotes/storylines? Drop them in the comments... let's have a Spinner party!
We leave you with this classic Spinner scene -- classic because it involves his charming candidness, an oh-so-Spinner reference to his junkular area, and a demonstration of that hard-won best buds forever bromance with Jimmy that always touched our hearts.
Also, the part where he flexes those guns doesn't suck.
Enjoy more Spinner-vision in our 12 Boys of Degrassi: Spinner playlist... chock full of Spinner moments and full episodes from the highlights of his tenure.
Keep calm though, because excitement makes him fart.
Meet the winner of the How Do You HALO Sweeps!Posted on 12/10/2010 by Mary
Degrassi working with Free the Children in Kenya; photo courtesy Charlotte Arnold
I know the rest of us are bummed we didn't win the sweepstakes, but when you read this interview with Kerri, I don't think you'll be sad that she won.
Kerri and two friends will be taking a trip with Free the Children, an organization "driven by over 1 million shamelessly idealistic youth" who build schools and other infrastructure in countries that desperately need them. In fact, Free the Children was founded by a 12 year old and his friends back in 1995 -- just the kind of guy who would be showing up on the HALO Awards now.
The Degrassi cast has gone on Free the Children trips for years... and now Kerri will be joining Degrassi stars on a trip that will change not just their lives, but the lives of children in need. Here's what Kerri has to say about it!
Congratulations!! What was the tweet was that you won with?
It said "I HALO by being part of an organization that helps youth with mental health problems."
Can you tell us a little about that organization?
It's called Youth Speaking Out, and they run as part of a group called Parent Support Network in Rhode Island. My boyfriend was actually in it since he was 8, and then when we started dating he was like, "I'd really like you to come with me." I was like, "OK Sure, I'll see what it's all about." I wish that they were more well known because they really do a lot of helpful stuff.
They used to only meet once a month because they didn't have enough money, but they just went back to being once a week, so we go every Thursday.
A lot of [the kids there] are from group homes. Or they used to be in group homes, and now they're sharing their experiences and try to help [the others] deal with the situations they're in. So they include people [like me] who aren't from that... I listen to the kids, to hear what it's like, [and I offer] the perspective of someone who's not in a group home.
And you're studying to be a medical assistant, so you can help people for a living?
Yeah. It's funny, when I went to my first week of classes they asked me where I saw myself with my degree in five years, and I told them I'd really like to be in another country helping less fortunate people with my medical degree. And now I'm going somewhere!
Have you been a Degrassi fan for a long time?
Uh, yeah. Since I was in like 7th grade. I've never stopped watching it.
Who are your favorite characters?
I always liked JT, but then I was so upset when he died, I was crying. And then I told myself every time they came up with new characters, "I'm never going to like anybody as much as I liked him. He was just the best character."
And then this season came out and now Eli's on it. I like him. [laughs] And so does everybody else. And I really like Jessica Tyler, she has such a good singing voice.
And don't you get to bring two friends? Who are you going to take?
Yup, I'm going to take my boyfriend and my friend Kathy, because she always talks about how she's always wanted to be in Africa. And she's like "I'll never get to go, it costs so much money." [Since Africa's on the list of places we could end up going,] I called her and was like "You're coming with me."
It's so crazy, I never win anything! When they called me I said, "Is this a joke?" I can't win tickets off the radio, but I can win something as big and life-changing as this!
HALO! It's on, TONIGHT!Posted on 12/10/2010 by Chairman Nick Cannon
Finally! The day we've been waiting for, the day I've been working towards all year... The 2010 TeenNick HALO Awards air tonight at 8pm et! Make sure you're here for the live tweeting event, too -- because if there's anything the HALO Awards are about, it's community. The whole wide world-sized community. So come on, let's all talk about it. Get inspired! Get connected! Get your HALO on!
See you tonight on your TV screens,
Chairman Nick
PS: Don't forget -- we'll announce the winner of the How Do You HALO Sweepstakes during the show tonight! Find out who's going to get their HALO on with the stars of Degrassi!
My holiday mood = Mrs. Clausy.Posted on 12/08/2010 by Lisa
That's according to the "What's Your Holiday Mood?" quiz, and I think it's pretty accurate. I don't usually do much holiday decorating, but this year, I got a sparkly blue Christmas tree, and decorated it with handmade ornaments. It's tacky and adorable, and I think Mrs. Claus would be proud.
How are the holidays treating you so far? Are you feeling extra-generous and loving -- or not so much?
Live Tweet the HALOs with us!Posted on 12/07/2010 by Mary
Friday night -- a scant 72 hours from now -- three exciting things are going down:
1) The HALO Awards are on at 8p et!
2) The winner of the How Do You HALO sweepstakes will be announced during the show!
And 3) Lisa and I will be here live tweeting the episode, and we'd love for you to join us!
Just stop by the site Friday night at showtime (8p et), and we'll be live chatting via Twitter with y'all. Like a gigantor twitter party. A heart party! A party in our hearts. And our computers. And our computers' hearts.
Be there, or be the sad sack who missed the heart party!
Feelin' Optimistic?Posted on 12/06/2010 by Lisa
If so, it's the perfect time to take our new quiz: "How Optimistic Are You?"
I just took it and got:
p.s. If you're not feeling all that optimistic at the moment, feel free to come back and take the quiz again after you watch the HALO Awards on Friday. I have a theory that they'll put everyone who sees them in a more optimistic mood.

Comments: I'm now in to my second pair after wearing out the first. I'm not gonna lie, these shoes do have some flaws. The laces will come undone constantly unless you double knot them, and the top right shoe lace loop broke after only about a month of use. The rest of them held up for the next 6 months. When these wore out I considered some other brands and models, but I couldn't get past one positive of the purecadence2's. And that is the fact that I logged more miles with these shoes then any other shoe in the past 350+, and every mile was injury free. And when all things were considered that's what was most important to me. 6"1' 200lb.
From: Tony, Boone, Iowa, USA
Comments: In German there's a word – vershlimmbesserung – which literally translates as "bad improvement". It describes something that was meant to make things better but actually makes them worse. The upper on the PureCadence 2 is vershlimmbesserung. Please go back to the original. It was wonderful.
From: Neil, Toronto
Comments: I had a pair of the Cadence 1 and LOVED them -- the perfect shoe for my somewhat narrow feet. The Cadence 2 retains the outsole and midsole, and it's a solid shoe. But ... the upper has changed: the overall fit of the shoe is slightly looser for me than the Cadence 1, and the level of support also has decreased a bit. They still feel great underfoot -- it's the "around-foot" that's changed. The new upper also has less gap between left/right sides when tied; mine are so close there's no room to put a Garmin footpod in the laces. I'll experiment with different socks to change the fit (I use ultra-thin Injinji lightweights). I'd buy again, but I'd buy Cadence 1's over these in a heartbeat.
From: Clive, Charlotte, NC, USA
Comments: I have run in a lot of shoes, and the pure cadence 2's are the best. The only complaints about the cadence 1's were that the tongue slips to the side and the toe box is a bit sloppy, though I do have to still tighten them a lot because I have very narrow feet, the shoe still feels snug and they connected the tongue on one side so it does not slip anymore. The shoe encourages you to forefoot strike- the general placement of the cushion and support feels better than the saucany mirage, which I ran in for a year. I am a mid distance runner and I am also comfortable using them in speed workouts where I should really be wearing spikes or flats.
From: Mitch, Minnesota, USA
Comments: I was big fan of the Cadence 1, but the new upper in the 2 was a huge disappointment. The 2s are less snug, the toe box seems deeper which gives the shoe a slappy feel. In addition, the whole thing feels bulkier and less flexible. I didn't like the new lacing design primarily because they did away with the extra hole at the top. As a result, the heel slips. Finally, the new tongue is sewn in solid so you can't cinch it up for a more secure ride. If you are intent on trying these shoes you should definitely get a half size smaller than you would in the 1s. Overall, I didn't think changing an upper could hurt a shoe so much but the Cadence 2 proved me wrong. Why did you mess with a good thing?! I think I'll try the Virrata or Mirage from Saucony.
From: Will, Louisiana
Comments: I am a moderate overpronator and have never been able to successfully use an elemental or minimal shoe for regular training runs until I tried the 1st generation Cadence. I found them on sale at a local store and thought I'd give 'em a try. Found out they work for me for daily distance and long runs. It's great! Then I got a pair of the Cadence 2 during the Holidays. The new upper works very well with the sole unit and the shoe feels more like a single piece than the predecessor. However, the Cadence 1 has more reinforcement in the midfoot upper than the Cadence 2. This small difference has a substantial negative result for me. Less reinforcement in the arch area allows my arch to flex just a little too much. After medium distance runs in the Cadence 2, I feel aches in all the wrong places (feet, knees and hips). The next day, I can do a 2-hour run in the old Cadence 1 and feel great afterwards with no aches. The Cadence line has allowed me to use an entirely new shoe category and for that I remain a big fan. But I'm disappointed that I cannot use the Cadence 2 for the variety of runs that I can with the 1st generation model.
From: Jeff, Scottsdale, AZ, USA

You know what I love about cooking? It's the versatility of it all. It never ceases to amaze me how one single ingredient can change the whole taste, aroma and outcome of a recipe. That's what cooking is about. Knowing which ingredient will enhance another, and pairing them all correctly to produce one outstanding dish.
For those of you who were fortunate enough to attend the Chef's Challenge fundraiser for Torah Umesorah (in Toronto), you may remember a delicious salad that Chef Mitch Lipperman created. The simple ingredients are overpowered by a fragrant punch of something citrusy. The secret is a whole lot of lemon thyme, a strain of thyme that has incredible lemon flavor. He was kind enough to share his recipe with us, for all of our readers to enjoy.

Yes, it's another problem with syslinux.
I have an Acer Aspire One with an Atom N270 and Intel GMA950 video card.
I had strange problems with Ubuntu 12.10 which forced me to wipe the drive (If I still get these issue, I'll talk about them some other time).
So I downloaded the Desktop 32 bit ISO (i386), put it on a key using Universal USB Installer and tried to boot from it. I get the syslinux header (the Peter Anvin line) and then nothing. I tried reinstalling it on the key using unetbootin and LiLi but both gave me the same result.
Now, I do know ubuntu works on this machine as I have been successfully upgrading the OS since version 10.something. I also know it's not a booting failure since I have been able to boot UBCD4Win and Puppy Linux without fault.
I tried downgrading to LTS 10.4 but still get the same problem. I tried booting from a different USB Stick, same problem.
So, the big question is: what now?

Relaxation techniques can reduce stress symptoms and help you enjoy a better quality of life, especially if you have an illness. Explore relaxation techniques you can do by yourself.
Relaxation techniques are a great way to help with stress management. Relaxation isn't just about peace of mind or enjoying a hobby. Relaxation is a process that decreases the effects of stress on your mind and body. Relaxation techniques can help you cope with everyday stress and with stress related to various health problems, such as cancer and pain.
Whether your stress is spiraling out of control or you've already got it tamed, you can benefit from learning relaxation techniques. Learning basic relaxation techniques is easy. Relaxation techniques also are often free or low cost, pose little risk, and can be done just about anywhere.
Explore these simple relaxation techniques and get started on de-stressing your life and improving your health.
When faced with numerous responsibilities and tasks or the demands of an illness, relaxation techniques may take a back seat in your life. But that means you might miss out on the health benefits of relaxation.
Practicing relaxation techniques can reduce stress symptoms by:
To get the most benefit, use relaxation techniques along with other positive coping methods, such as thinking positively, finding humor, problem-solving, managing time, exercising, getting enough sleep, and reaching out to supportive family and friends.
Health professionals such as complementary and alternative medicine practitioners, doctors, and psychotherapists can teach various relaxation techniques. But if you prefer, you can also learn some relaxation techniques on your own.
In general, relaxation techniques involve refocusing your attention on something calming and increasing awareness of your body. It doesn't matter which relaxation technique you choose. What matters is that you try to practice relaxation regularly to reap its benefits.
There are several main types of relaxation techniques, including:
Autogenic relaxation. Autogenic means something that comes from within you. In this relaxation technique, you use both visual imagery and body awareness to reduce stress.
You repeat words or suggestions in your mind to relax and reduce muscle tension. For example, you may imagine a peaceful setting and then focus on controlled, relaxing breathing, slowing your heart rate, or feeling different physical sensations, such as relaxing each arm or leg one by one.
Progressive muscle relaxation. In this relaxation technique, you focus on slowly tensing and then relaxing each muscle group.
This helps you focus on the difference between muscle tension and relaxation. You become more aware of physical sensations.
One method of progressive muscle relaxation is to start by tensing and relaxing the muscles in your toes and progressively working your way up to your neck and head. You can also start with your head and neck and work down to your toes. Tense your muscles for at least five seconds and then relax for 30 seconds, and repeat.
Visualization. In this relaxation technique, you form mental images to take a visual journey to a peaceful, calming place or situation.
During visualization, try to use as many senses as you can, including smell, sight, sound and touch. If you imagine relaxing at the ocean, for instance, think about the smell of salt water, the sound of crashing waves and the warmth of the sun on your body. You may want to close your eyes, sit in a quiet spot and loosen any tight clothing.
Other relaxation techniques include:
As you learn relaxation techniques, you'll become more aware of muscle tension and other physical sensations of stress. Once you know what the stress response feels like, you can make a conscious effort to practice a relaxation technique the moment you start to feel stress symptoms. This can prevent stress from spiraling out of control.
Remember that relaxation techniques are skills. As with any skill, your ability to relax improves with practice. Be patient with yourself. Don't let your effort to practice relaxation techniques become yet another stressor.
If one relaxation technique doesn't work for you, try another. If none of your efforts at stress reduction seems to work, talk to your doctor about other options.
Also, bear in mind that some people, especially those with serious psychological issues and a history of abuse, may experience feelings of emotional discomfort during some relaxation techniques. Although this is rare, if you experience emotional discomfort during relaxation techniques, stop what you're doing and consider talking to your doctor or mental health provider.

Apparently the next superfood is coconut so I am all set
. I have bags of Mounds scattered all over my office and basement.
Good riddance to you Kale! Begone and make way for the era of coconut.ReplyCancel
Finally something I like.ReplyCancel
Coconut Water made me wanna throw-up in the garbage can. Maybe I got a bad kind—is it suppose to have actual little chunks of coconut in it? cause the kind I tried did and it was vile.ReplyCancel
I prefer an Almond JoyReplyCancel
@Warecat, truth!ReplyCancel
I tried coconut water after running and it was hideous! Ugh.ReplyCancel
Coconut water is amazing! I guess it's not for everyone. Really quenches the thirst.ReplyCancel
I am sick of seeing this Kristen Bell and her hubby Dax whining about paps taking pix of their kid. MOVE TO FUCKING NEBRASKA if you don't want people taking pix of your kid.
They are both so fucking stupid. "We are going to get the magazines to stop buying the pics from you and kill the demand." Yeah, that will happen as soon as the other 1/2 of Dax's brain starts getting oxygen to it.ReplyCancel
@Gayeld- Peter Paul Almond Joy's got nuts!ReplyCancel
Coconut Water did not agree with me either. It was like drinking melted butter.
Get some Quinoa. That stuff is 'mazing, yo.ReplyCancel
And you can make a delicious chocolate cake with quinoa. :))ReplyCancel
Great, this means the price is gonna skyrocket. *hoards all the coconut flour/oil to self*ReplyCancel
The only coconut in my diet comes from Girl Scout Samoa cookies.ReplyCancel
Eating coconut is like chewing rope bits,. toasted coconut is edible if you eat it before it sogs and it's great on curry, it soaks up the sauce.
Coconut water makes me think of Malibu rum without the kick * gag *
I use that coco Lopez for the big V pina coladas, does that count?
Coconut Rum is really good.ReplyCancel
I love coconut oil as a moisturizer. And I am probably one of the few who love to crack a coconut and eat it raw. So bring it on!ReplyCancel
Many moons ago (OK, about 15 years), there was a hysterically funny website written by someone who worked for a state Poison Control Hotline, consisting mainly of his all-time greatest calls plus a few tales he heard along the way. I presume this was one of the latter…at any rate, a young diabetic man was out w/a bunch of his friends when his blood sugar suddenly took a dive, and he passed out cold. His friends knew he was a diabetic, and knew they needed to get sugar into him ASAP, but how do you manage that one when (a) the person can't take anything by mouth, and (b) they're already rushing him to the ER?
Well, they found a way, all right…and the ER crew was very surprised to find an Almond Joy bar stuffed up this guy's ass.
(Hey, it makes sense–you can definitely absorb things through the walls of your colon, and short of starting an IV, it probably was the best idea at that moment.)
This gets better, though: at the time I read this particular anecdote, one of my roommates was a somewhat prissy fellow who was, I admit, kind of fun to get wound up; you haven't lived until you and one of your equally sick and twisted female friends play "let's introduce the squeamish gay guy to feminine hygiene products"–unused, I hasten to point out; there may still be photos someone of Adam with a handful of tampons and a completely stricken facial expression.** But I digress…anyway, I told him the story, and his first reaction was "But why an Almond Joy bar?"
"Because sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don't!" was my snappy comeback…
Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week…
**He didn't have any sisters, and, frankly, never seemed to have gotten past the "girls are GROSS!" stage of his development, to the point that some of us wondered if he was gay because he was genuinely drawn to his own gender, or because the other one creeped him out way too badly.ReplyCancel
I loathe coconut in any way, shape or form. If it's used in cooking 99.5% guaranteed I'll taste it, and gag.
I had wicked morning sickness with my first baby. My husband and I were in a restaurant, and he had carrot cake and made me try it. He didn't taste the coconut in it, so he says, but I sure did. I ran to the bathroom (on the far side of the place) so fast he had no idea what was up.Than I came back and gave him hell for feeding me coconut.
Thanks, @Plum! Appreciate that! I don't see you around so much now, so it's extra cool that you used a post to acknowledge my follicle joy 🙂
Felt kinda off today re the menses, so was iffy even trying for awesomo while not entirely compos. But it turned out to be pure excellence! Super short and cut up on the left. Massive comb-over to the right side, which is near my chin long on the front but angles up to be shorter at the back. I've got a ridiculous volume of hair, so it's pleasantly fluffy and boofed without effort. I just can't expend hair effort beyond washing; easy is a must.
This is an adjustment to the pre-awesomo look, but it's so great. Edgy, even. As edgy as a semi-suburban gossip reading Aaron Carter hassling chic gets 😉
I'm insanely happy with the 'do, in case you didn't notice, and t'is good to see you XD
That's got terrible side effects, CanadianMiss, as I imagine it puts most Thai food off your menu.
I like coconut on its own, not love but it's good, but Thai food makes my tummy sing! Big on the lean and raw, flash-cooked and deliciously healthy (if you keep the jasmine rice to a minimum), but they go for the coconut milk in a big way.
I bet your SO had massive guilts after doing that to you 😉ReplyCancel
Alita, jealous of your awsomeist haircut.
I have to go back to the salon today for colour redo. My stylist put all blond in, no ash, and now I look like I belong in the brass section of the orchestra. Worst colour evah! In fact, I am almost a ginger! Good for some, not moi.
At costco they bags of pieces of young coconut, it's reasonably priced, and the coconut is yummy to snack on. You can grate it onto your food etc.ReplyCancel
I love coconut too. All the kids but one will suffer it.ReplyCancel

People always give a sigh of apology when I say I am in the commercial real estate business. With the residential markets taking huge hits and the economy struggling, the assumption is that commercial real estate is too. For those holding grossly overvalued, leveraged commercial properties, times are tough. However, for the commercial broker and investor with their nose to the ground sniffing for great deals, it is an opportune time. With tight lending requirements, the term, "Cash is King" has never been more valid. It truly is an exciting time for commercial real estate in Denver.
Many commercial properties are facing loan renewal deadlines. Those who paid a premium five or more years ago are faced with the reality of not getting a new loan. With lower market lease rates, banks requiring higher debt coverage ratios, and overall declining property values, those who leveraged their investment years ago are left with little to no options today.
This also holds true for developers. A project I am familiar with in Denver was selling for $225 per square foot five years ago, but now is selling for as low as $100 per square foot. Banks have been forced to work with developers to recapture as much capital as possible and cut their losses. This is great news for business owners who have been leasing. For the same monthly obligation, business owners can put a reasonable amount of cash down and take advantage of incredibly low interest rates and own their space. SBA financing is a great way to lock cheap money for the next 20 years without the traditional closing cost fees.
Another example is a property that sold in 2000 for $2.95 million, but was unable to be refinanced last year. A group of local investors were able to purchase the property this year in a short sale for $1.1 million in lieu of the bank foreclosing. The property needs work, but with existing tenancy (which was at 60 percent at the time of purchase), the property was returning a 10 percent CAP rate. Once work is complete and the project is stabilized, the investors should see returns between 12 percent and 15 percent annually even after the capitalization costs.
With the uncertainty of financial markets and the threat of hyper inflation in the next couple of years, investment in hard assets should definitely be considered as part of one's investment portfolio. In an article written by CoStar's Mark Heschmeyer, he quotes Andrew Little, an investment banker with John B. Levy & Co. in Richmond, Va., who said, "Although the downgrade (of the U.S. debt rating) has made market participants more anxious, and the immediate impact is widening spreads, the cost of capital for better quality commercial real estate has not gone up. The bond market certainly doesn't believe there will be any U.S. Treasury default, but prospects of continued political gridlock and further downgrades has investors of all kinds trying to figure out where to put money," Little said. "Commercial real estate doesn't look too shabby when compared to many of the alternatives." Mark goes on to quote Asieh Mansour, Ph.D., and CBRE's head of Americas Research who says, "While we anticipate continued stock market volatility, commercial real estate will not fare as poorly because it remains a preferred asset class, within a well-diversified multi-asset institutional portfolio."
Be a wise and prudent investor. A trusted advisor has always told me, "I don't invest in anything I can't sell for $8.95 with Schwab." Once committed to a commercial asset, it certainly is not as liquid as a stock trade. However, if done right, it can prove to be a very valuable return for the future. Look to those who know and understand the market and seek their advice. Do not invest in something you don't understand. The last thing you want is to be the "one" having to arrange a short sale or face foreclosure down the road.
A friend and I recently sat down to play a game of Monopoly with my 9-year-old son. My friend has a Ph.D. and I being in real estate felt confident in our abilities to school my son. My son is infatuated with Boardwalk and Park Place (who isn't?). He had successfully purchased Boardwalk, but needed Park Place, which my friend had already purchased. For 30 minutes he begged my friend to trade nine of his properties for my friend's one interest in Park Place. My friend would not trade him because he felt guilty of taking advantage of such a naive trade. After repeated requests, I finally encouraged my friend to make the trade, knowing it would give me the opportunity to teach a valuable lesson to my son. It took only another 30 minutes (we all know this game has a painfully long time requirement), but my son successfully purchased the requisite amount of homes, then two hotels and subsequently bankrupted my friend first and myself not long after. No lesson in prudent spending was taught that day, and my 9-year-old has not let myself, my friend or anyone else within ear shot forget his victory.
My point is, many have made a lot of money on real estate. Some make it through wise and prudent purchases and others through dumb luck (no offense to my 9-year-old). I believe in the real estate market in Denver. It has weathered these economic times better than most major cities throughout the country. Be wise, use good judgment and counsel, and you too can end up winning in the game of real estate in Denver.

I also enjoyed participating in opening the Alabama House of Representative session on April 5th by leading the pledge. I also enjoyed getting to meet the Speaker of the House, Senate Pro Temp, members of Honorary Girl Scout Troop 1912 (the year Girl Scouts was found in the U.S.) and members of the North Central and Southern Alabama Girl Scout Boards. After Susan and I opened with the pledge, Rep. Terri Collins, one of the members of Honorary Girl Scout Troop 1912, announced a proclamation recognizing the 100th anniversary of Girl Scouts. She talked about the history and future of Girl Scouting and presented Susan and me with a certificate of appreciation for leading the pledge.
Afterward, we went upstairs for a cookie reception. An area was set up with cookies, milk and coffee. The area was also Girl Scout information, pictures of Girl Scouts from different time periods and freebies like pencils and fans with the Girl Scout 100th Anniversary emblem on them
A reporter from WSFA interviewed Susan, me and some Girl Scouts from North Central Alabama Council. He asked me about what Girl Scouts do, what it teaches us and how it can be used in the future. I didn't get to see the interview on T.V. but a couple people told my mom they saw it and we did a good job

When an avocado is cut and its flesh exposed to air, it discolors quickly. So add avocados at the last minute, or brush with lemon or lime juice to minimize discoloration.

What Florida Residents Need to Know About Obamacare
On this website, you'll find clear and accurate information about getting health insurance under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), including:
- whether or not you must get health insurance
- what the available plans cover
- how much coverage will cost
- how to sign up for a plan, and
- how to get help if you need it.
To begin, keep in mind these key points about health insurance in Florida:
1. Obamacare, officially known as the Affordable Care Act, has not been repealed.
Though there has been much talk from the current Republican administration about repealing the Affordable Care Act, it is still the law. Lawmakers have not changed any of the ACA's requirements or benefits, nor have they yet proposed a replacement plan. We will update the information on this website when and if the ACA changes.

Cook the lasagna noodles in a large, broad pot, such as a dutch oven. Keep the water boiling and stir occasionally so the noodles do not stick. Carefully pour the noodles into a large colander. Lasagna noodles are heavy but tear easily.
Breadsticks or bread and a tossed salad are simple accompaniments to serve with this lasagna. Bake a batch of sugar cookies to enjoy as a special treat after dinner.

Senator Sherrod Brown Visit
Today was quite the exciting day at Anchor Hocking Company's Plant 1, in Lancaster, Ohio. We had a special visit from Senator Sherrod Brown in the afternoon.
He was welcomed in our showroom, where Channel 10 News asked him questions, and a local newpaper photographer snapped shots of the event.
Brown then went on a tour of our factory with our President, Mark Eichhorn as well as our CFO, Mark Hedstrom.
On his way through Plant 1, factory team members were all smiles to see the Senator in their historic factory.
Senator Sherrod Brown not only learned about glass making, but also glass decorating. Here, Eichhorn shows Brown one of our most popular and time tested pieces, the Fire King Measuring Cup.
The Senator is quite proud of Ohio's rich manufacturing history, and was thrilled to hear that we've managed to keep our main plant in the same location since our origination in 1905.

The Emery High School Peer Helpers, along with advisors from Four Corners, visited San Rafael Junior High School recently with a presentation concerning "gateway drugs." Gateway drugs are those substances that lead to other drugs and their use. Peer helpers did presentations about the effects of tobacco, alcohol and inhalants.
Jackie Rogers, Shelby Huntington, Leslie Emery and AnnDee Adams began the program with a few facts about alcohol use. They told the San Rafael students that alcohol is a poison and its use can be fatal, and if a person drinks five or more drinks, it can be considered binge drinking.
Emery related a story about a 15 year old Emery County youth who was involved in a drinking party, and barely escaped with his life. This young man passed out from drinking and the older people at the party tried to rouse him by putting him in a tub of cold water.
The submersion in the cold water induced convulsions and the group panicked. They took him to his home and dropped him off on the porch. It was mid December and he was wet and nearly naked. When his father heard the noises on the porch, he opened the door and discovered his son lying on the porch.
At this point the son was not breathing and the father figured he was dead. He tried to pick up the young man, but dropped him in the process. When the son hit the ground, he emitted a groan and began breathing again. An ambulance was called and the son was rushed to Castleview Hospital.
The 15 year old was in an alcohol induced coma, and was in extremely serious condition. He did survive, but he was very lucky to have done so. Emery told the students that this could be any young person who decides that drinking sounds like fun. "It is a very dangerous thing and could be deadly," she said.
Huntington related a poem about someone who was watching a coffin being lowered into a grave. The poem told about the results of drinking and driving.
Adams related a few facts about drinking and young people. "Alcohol is the number one drug problem with teenagers. It kills more youth than the other illegal drugs combined," she stated.
A video was shown with a man telling about his drunk driving incident. He said he had driven many times while drunk and nothing had happened. Then this time, he didn't even consider himself drunk, he had an accident. He related his thoughts about waking up in the ditch and suddenly becoming aware that his children were not with him. As he was being questioned by the police officers, he heard someone in the background shout "we have a body over here." It was at that moment he realized he had killed his own children.
Rogers finished the alcohol presentation by saying, "Be careful of what you consume. Alcohol can be deadly."
Jake Fausett and Brandon Larsen were next and talked about inhalant use. "An inhalant is any volatile substance that is inhaled for the effect of its vapor, and when inhaled produces a mind altering state," said Larsen.
Fausett showed the students two depictions of a brain. The first was a brain with no indication of any inhalant use. The next was a brain under the influence of inhalants. The most notable difference was the size of each brain. The inhalant brain was much smaller and had hollow spots in it. He explained that this is the damage from inhalant use. "Not only will a person suffer a lot of brain damage, you could die from inhalant use. You're dead, dead, dead," said Fausett. "It can also suffocate you by freezing your throat and that makes you dead."
To begin the tobacco part of the program, Lori Huntington of Four Corners, explained to the students that chewing tobacco is not a safe alternative to smoking cigarettes. The contents of one can of chew is equivalent to 90 cigarettes.
Nikki Gardner and Jacqueline Hill explained the contents of a cigarette. They contain the main ingredients of moth balls, rat poison, mercury, carbon monoxide, nitrous oxide, gasoline, cadmium, candle wax butane, vinyl chloride, and many, many other dangerous compounds. These are the ingredients which make cigarettes so addictive.
They explained that every person's body is different and the length of time to become addicted to cigarettes is different. "It may not be the first time you smoke or the second, but it will happen," said Gardner and Hill. They concluded their program with a demonstration with pig lungs. They showed a healthy set of lungs and connected them to an inflator. The color was pink and they were very flexible. The next set of lungs were conditioned with cigarette smoke. Not only did the lungs smell very badly, but they were black and inflexible. One of the lobes did not work at all.
Charlotte Withers, Jenny Dennis and Teresa Colby concluded the program with a presentation of the dangers of methamphetamine use.

Super cute flat!
"The color is beautiful! I got the turquoise and wish they had the pink left in my size. The shoe is extremely comfortable although I should mention that I did listen to some of the other reviews and ordered a half size up. I'm looking forward to wearing them- I'm going to put them aside for the spring."

Nice suede flat
"I took the advice of other reviewers and ordered a half size bigger than I normally wear. I do have slightly wide toes. A half size larger fit perfectly. I did find these run a bit short so I'm glad I ordered a half size larger. I got the brown which were a nice color. These are real leather and "made in Italy." The only thing I did not like was that the bow on the top had a small visible stitch to keep the bow flat against the shoe. I'm not really sure why that was necessary other than to make sure it always stays flat? I just didn't like that small detail because you could see the stitch and my other shoes with bow details don't have this and it's never been an issue."

Greetings All,
This is my first ORG post. I'm curious to know if most members of the ORG post in both forums or if they typically focus on the ORG. Just trying to determine what type of message to post in each forum. What do most of you guys and gals do? Thank you kindly!!


text: I don't know about the rest of the country, but it has been brutal in New York City the past week or two. Temperatures in the 90s, plus the kind of humidity where you feel like you've got a plastic bag strapped to your head and can't breathe. Thankfully, we've eked by thanks to air conditioning… and these photos of equally overheated animals doing everything in their power to cool off. From ice cream to plunging themselves into buckets of water, we'd like to emulate each and every one of them. Hopefully you enjoy these photos with a fan nearby.

The 411 on College Education
This lesson printed from:
Posted January 25, 2013
Standard: 13
Grades: 9-12
Author: Scott Wolla
Posted: January 25, 2013
One of the most important financial decisions people make is whether to go to college. The price tag of a college education is rising, but so are the benefits. In this lesson, students will begin by learning the relationship between level of education and the average unemployment rate; and level of education and median weekly income. Students then learn about wage premiums and investigate the various college options available to them; financing options available to them; the importance of filling out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA); and finally, college as an investment in human capital, examine the costs and benefits, and decide whether it is a good choice.
Advertising, Cost/Benefit Analysis, Human Capital, Human Capital Investment, Opportunity Cost
- Analyze the costs and benefits of investment in human capital.
- Describe the relationship between level of education and average unemployment rate.
- Describe the relationship between level of education and income-earning potential.
- Investigate the various college options available to them.
- Explain the difference between a loan and a grant.
- Explain the difference between a subsidized and unsubsidized loan.
- Explain the importance of filling out the FAFSA on time.

PACED Decision Making Grid: Students will use this worksheet to help them make a decision.
PACED Decision Making Grid
1. Ask the students if they are planning to go to college. What are the costs and benefits of college? Define cost/benefit analysis as the process of examining the advantages (benefits) and disadvantages (costs) of each available alternative in arriving at a decision. Tell the students they may have heard that the price tag of a college education keeps climbing higher every year. In fact, the price of a college education is climbing at a faster rate than the average price level of other goods and services. So, they may ask whether a college education is really worth the price. In other words, do the costs outweigh the benefits?
2. Tell the students that economists see a college education as an investment in human capital. Define human capital as the knowledge and skills that people obtain through education, experience, and training.
Tell the students to watch the Econ Ed Link video about human capital
Investment requires a person to pay for something now with the expectation that they will reap benefits in the future that make the investment worthwhile. In the case of a financial investment, this might mean buying stocks or bonds now with the hopes that the dividends, interest, and capital gains from the sale of the stock or bond, compensate for the risk that the asset might lose value. A business invests when they buy a piece of equipment or new technology with the expectation that the new equipment will increase the productivity of the business and increase profits in the future. In each of these cases, there is an up-front investment, with the hopes of higher income in the future.
3. Investing in higher education is similar. It is an investment with the expectation that a higher future income will compensate the investor -- the student in this case -- for their risk. In the case of higher education, the economic benefits are many.
4. Show students the following data which shows the unemployment rate for college graduates (blue) and the graduation rate for high school graduates (red): research.stlouisfed.org/fredgraph.png?g=73B Ask the students to explain the relationship between level of education and average unemployment rate. (The unemployment rate for people with a college degree is much lower than for high school graduates.)
5. Next, show students the following data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics: bls.gov/emp/ep_chart_001.htm Ask the students to explain the relationship between level of education and median weekly income. (Income, on average, is much higher for those with a college degree than for those without.)
6. Tell the students that the financial return on investment in education is often described by economists as a wage premium, and is calculated as the ratio of the median wage of those with a bachelor's degree to the wage of those who have only completed high school. Over time the premium has risen, from a 40 percent premium in the late 1970s and early 1980s to about 80 percent in more recent times. This means that a current college graduate will earn, on average, about 80 percent more than those with only a high school diploma. It is important to realize that 80 percent is an average, and that different college majors have different return on investment. For example, engineering majors have the highest four-year premium at 125 percent, while psychology and social work majors have the lowest premium at 40 percent.
For a more detailed explanation of the college wage premium read this article: https://www.clevelandfed.org/Newsroom%20and%20Events/Publications/Economic%20Commentary/2012/2012-10%20The%20College%20Wage%20Premium
7. Tell the students that there are many ways students pay college. Saving for college by students and parents should be part of the equation, but often it is not enough. Part of considering the costs of college is applying for financial aid. The Free Application of Federal Student Aid (known as FAFSA) is used to determine eligibility for student financial aid including grants, loans, and work study. In fact it is used to help determine eligibility not only for Federal programs, but for state aid and institutional (college or university- level) aid. The U.S. Department of Education begins accepting applications beginning January 1 of each year.
8. Click the link below to view the simulated chat, and then answer the questions below. Once the pop up window appears, you will need to click "messages" for the simulation to start. You will need to click "send" after each message from Buck to see the entire chat. www.stlouisfed.org/education_resources/personal-finance-101-chats/
When students have finished the chat have them answer the following questions:
How important is the FAFSA to eligibility for college funding? (It is required to be considered for financial aid.)
What is the difference between a loan and a grant? (You have to make payments on loans after you finish school; a grant is money you don't have to pay back.)
What is the difference between a subsidized and unsubsidized loan? (The government will pay the interest on a subsidized loan while you are in school.)
Why would the government want to know information about income and net worth of parents? (It is used to calculate EFC, or estimated family contribution.)
What is EFC? (Estimated Family Contribution, or how much the government feels a family should contribute to education expenses.)
Are there deadlines associated with the forms? (Yes, individual states have individual deadlines. Make sure you check which deadlines apply www.fafsa.ed.gov/deadlines.htm
9. Remind the students that there are a variety of education options available to them, including four-year public and private universities and colleges, and two-year community and technical colleges. Students can reduce the financial cost of college by attending a local two-year community college and then transferring to a four-year institution, living at home to save on living expenses, or paying for college while they are working.
10. Instruct students to compare tuition, fees, and estimated students expenses among community college, public four-year college/university, and private college/university. Instruct students to click the link to the college navigator (nces.ed.gov/collegenavigator/ ) and follow the directions in the lesson. Tell the students to write a short summary of the difference in college costs among the various types of institutions.
11. Tell the students that when thinking of investment, students should be mindful of the relationship between the value invested and the expected future income. So, attending an extremely expensive university which results in high levels of debt for a degree with a low wage premium may not be wise. It might be wise to attend a community college or state university to pursue that degree. On the other hand, attending a more expensive private university to earn a degree with a high wage premium might justify a higher level of debt. A common "rule of thumb" is that students should not borrow more than the first year average salary of people in that occupation. Using this guideline would mean that students would be justified in taking more debt to pursue a degree in engineering than in social work.
12. Instruct students to examine current average wages for many occupations, and look for the annual mean (average) wage of several occupations they have an interest in:
If they are not sure what occupation they would like to pursue, then they should start here: www.bls.gov/k12/
Note that the rule of thumb is for starting wages and data provided is annual mean (average) wage.
Have students read, "Is a College Cap and Gown a Financial Ball and Chain? "and answer the questions that follow.
1. As college costs have risen, how have many students chosen to pay for college? (Many students have taken out student loans to finance their education.)
2. How has the cost of obtaining a college education risen compared to the ability to pay for it (average personal real income)? (Real personal income has increased an average of 2.1 percent per year, while the real cost of attending a four-year university has increased an average of 3.6 percent per year. Teacher note: The word "real" means that the data have been adjusted for inflation.)
3. To an economist, the true cost of going to college is the opportunity cost. What is the opportunity cost of attending college? (The opportunity cost is the wages that a student could earn from working full time rather than attending college.)
4. In the end, is a college education a good investment? Write a detailed response using data to support your answer.
[Although the cost of a college education is high, so are the benefits. In 2008, college graduates earned on average 77 percent more than high school graduates. From 1998 to 2008, the difference between the median annual earnings of those with a bachelor's degree and those with only a high school diploma increased by about 23 percent. Although delaying work for four years means an initial lag in terms of income for college graduates, they catch up very quickly—usually by age 33. Finally, as a group, workers with at least a bachelor's degree have an unemployment rate that is about half that of those with only a high school diploma.]
Remind the students that one of the most important personal finance lessons they will make will be the decision regarding their education. The price of college has been rising, but so have the benefits. Students should consider the differences in costs of various types of college and universities, and the differences in income levels associated with different majors. One way to reduce the price of college is by applying for financial aid using the FAFSA form. Thinking about these decisions now can have a huge payoff in the future.
Suggest students discuss the following with their parents:
Discuss what you occupation you would like pursue.
Investigate what type of education and training will prepare you for that occupation.
Discuss what colleges or universities you would like to attend.
Discuss how you will pay for college.
