What are the Causes of Jaw Pain?
Temporal Mandibular Joint Dysfunction is commonly referred to as TMJD or TMJ dysfunction which leads to jaw pain. Individuals with jaw pain or headaches will often have associated dysfunction and pain of the neck. Research reveals that 50% of neck cases will have TMJ dysfunction as the primary underlying problem, leading to frustration if untreated. Strong and powerful muscles help stabilize and mobilize the jaw which include: temporalis, lateral pterygoids, medial pterygoids, masseters, and buccinators. These muscle may seem insignificant to the entire body due to their small size. However, these muscles are considered to be neurologically integrated with proprioceptive, visual, balance, and postural control of the entire body.
Over-activation of these muscles turn off the deepest and most significant neck muscles for stabilization. A common postural finding called anterior head carriage occurs due to the lack of the deep neck muscles creating pain to the neck and TMJ. Postural and orthostatic stability of the head over the neck has been hallmarked in the literature as an important consideration in the diagnosis of cervical/TMJ dysfunction and pain.
What are the Symptoms of Jaw Pain?
Jaw pain and dysfunction can be an extremely painful experience. Jaw pain may often present as a non-painful, yet annoying, popping or clicking sensation. Two simple test to evaluate if your jaw, neck, or upper body pain has TMJD as a potential primary cause include motion analysis and a 3 knuckle test. First look in the mirror for the assessment. Open your jaw and see if 3 knuckles can fit comfortably between your teeth. If any popping, clicking, or pain is present there is a potential the TMJ is causing your face, neck, or head pains. While looking in the mirror open your jaw slow and identify if it moves in one direction more than the other before stopping. If the jaw translates more in one direction while opening there is compensating tight musculature around the TMJ that may be causing your face, neck, and head pain as well. These are two simple tests anyone can perform themselves to identify if treatment and care are needed.
Consult a Doctor if the Following Occur:
What are Common Treatments for Jaw Pain?
Common treatments for jaw pain include soft tissue treatment for the surrounding musculature. When the tissues surrounding the TMJ become tight and fibrotic adhesions build up restricting proper motion. The lack of proper motion within the joint produces the popping and clicking often experienced with TMJ patients.
New Patients are Always Welcome!
The doctors at F.I.T. Muscle & Joint Clinic in Overland Park & Shawnee, Kansas and Lees Summit, Missouri are here to help lessen and relieve your jaw pain. Do not hesitate, contact us today for leading evidence-based assessments and treatments for your musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction.

Recently, we've had lots of discussions about food deserts in class and how we can help to change the availability of healthy, sustainable food for lower income demographics. Recently, some North Carolina Farmer's Markets have started accepting food stamps as a way to reach out to low income people.
That won't be enough. People in poverty obviously have a limited amount of resources, and food stamps are one of those resources. Because the resources are limited, they try and use them in the most efficient way possible. Unfortunately, the most cost-efficient foods are typically the ones that aren't sustainably produced because their cheapness is born through those unsustainable processes. There could still be a solution.
In health insurance, the people who need health insurance can't afford it because of pre-existing conditions, etc. and those who don't necessarily need it can get it very cheap because they are low risk. To help with this insurance companies "cost shift" from the low risk people to the high to subsidize their premium cost. They charge the low risk people more than they need to to cover the expected payout in order to help the more needy high-risk people. This principle could easily be applied to Farmer's Markets. If vendors charged a little bit more at high income locations, then they could have secondary locations in low-income areas where lower margins could be covered by the people who are willing to pay more. It would probably take some government help, because it would cut into Farmer's Markets profits, but it could still be more efficient than a straight subsidy and a good way to get rid of excess or lower quality product.

I thought it would be fun to chronicle the weird, silly, and sometimes very stereotypical things that have floated out of my mouth and into Mike's ears. Some will be unique to me and some won't, but all have made me laugh in hindsight.
This month, the subject matter is social media and I KNOW I'm not the only one who has uttered these sentences. Being a blogger, these are almost daily occurrences.
Wait. Don't eat that yet. I need to take a picture.
Apparently this is Mike's most hated combination of words. He loves eating and isn't fond of waiting. And picture taking is not considered a good reason to wait in his books. Ever since I started blogging, this happens a lot. Of course, the tastier the dish, the more it needs to be photographed, and the more annoyed Mike gets.
Come here. We need to take a selfie in front of this.
To go along with the documentation theme, I like to take a picture of us two in front of whatever landmark or exciting thing we encounter. Mike argues that I could just take a picture of the thing without us in it. My rebuttal? If we aren't in the photo, we weren't there. Obviously. Oh, and I should also mention that he has refused to be in a picture taken by a selfie stick. So there's that too.
Are you looking at the dot or at yourself? Look at the dot.
It's natural to want to see what you look like before the picture is snapped. That's why the forward-facing camera was invented after all! But once you're done, it is crucial to move your gaze to the actual camera. The little dot beside the speaker. Reminders are necessary.
I look weird in that one. Just one more.
Even if everyone's eyeballs are pointing in the right direction, that does not ensure a good selfie. I have an average of 5 takes of each one because the first 4 are no good. That's a lie. It's way more.
Can you say that again? I want to post it on Snapchat.
So I'm just going to come right out and say it. Mike hates Snapchat. I don't understand because it's clearly the best social media out there right now. There have been situations where he said something noteworthy and I wasn't ready so I asked him to repeat it. Unsuccessfully.
Want to watch my snapchat story?
Since he doesn't have his own account, he misses all of my glorious snaps. So one of the very last things I ask him before he falls asleep everyday is the above. He amuses me and agrees but I know he's majorly rolling his eyes inside. I don't blame him.
Have you said any of these to your significant other? Don't even try to pretend that you haven't!

I will admit i did not know who she was until this morning, but shehas a long list of television credits including such classics as Celebrity Fear Factor, The Salon, Celebrity 5 Go Dating, and many more. As far as I am concerned they can't have enough of her on television!

It's Pride weekend here in Seattle!
Needless to say, there are events galore, and so far it's been a fabulous weekend.
...And it's only Saturday afternoon.
Last night, my bombshell friend Courtney & I went to Hey Tranny, it's Tranny, a benefit for the Gay City Health Project. Of course, it was put on by the nightlife explosion of wonderful that is Nark Magazine.
Tickets were pricey (by my standards).... but we totally scored and got free tickets to this sold out event.
The universe was looking out for us!
Oh, and nbd or anything, Sharon Needles was headlining. She was absolutely sickening, if you will.
So I gothed it up, in honor of the high witch of macabre dragdom.
Lace, silk, feathers, monkey fur, veiling....
And Courtney looked killer.
While her dress is a late '50s silk chiffon, the hooded aspect gave off an intense '40s Hedy Lamarr vibe...
I didn't take many pictures, we were too busy dancing & gawking at how great everyone looked.
And LOOK at my friend Faith's 1940s butterfly kimono. I can't even...
Also... Sharon Needles drives a hearse. No joke.
Shut the front door!
So that was my night, looking forward to more dancing tonight!

Baltic & Vladivostok LNG Projects Agreed by Gazprom
An Agreement of Cooperation as part of liquefied natural gas (LNG ) projects has been signed at the Gazprom headquarters by Alexey Miller, Chairman of the Gazprom Management Committee and Andrey Akimov, Chairman of the Gazprombank Management Board.
The Vladivostok LNG project provides for the construction of an LNG plant with an annual capacity of 10 million tons in the Primorye Territory with the potential for further expansion. The project entered the investment stage in February 2013. The first train will be brought onstream in 2018.
The Baltic LNG project provides for the construction of an LNG plant with an annual capacity of up to 10 million tons in the Leningrad Region. The Investment Rationale for the project will be completed in the first half of 2014.
According to the document, Gazprombank jointly with Gazprom will hold negotiations with international and Russian financial institutions to obtain equity and external financing for the project companies.
Gazprom will support the project companies, inter alia by selecting appropriate sites for LNG plants, obtaining land lease/acquisition rights required for the construction and providing the LNG projects with necessary volumes of natural gas.
Gazprom says it is successfully developing its LNG sales and transportation segment and informs that Gazprombank is among Russia's three largest banks by key performance indicators and among Central and Eastern Europe's top three banks in terms of equity capital.

As I mentioned in my review of the Holika Holika Pro:Beauty Pencil Tint PK102, I picked up two shades from this range. Both are categorized in the pink category (PK101 and PK102) but they essentially are different shades with PK102 being a Coral-y Neon Pink shade and PK101 being a red with orange undertones. The formula of both the pencils seems to be slightly different to me so I decided to do separate reviews. Here are my thoughts on the PK101 shade!
Product: Holika Holika Pro: Beauty Pencil Tint PK101
Quantity: 0.56 g
Price: 10$
There are actually 8 shades in this range and both the shade I picked up seemed the boldest from the boldest amongst the rest. These Pencil Tints comes in a black retractable plastic pen packaging with color co-ordinated lids. They also come with a tip sharpener. The packaging gets a full 5/5 from me!
The Holika Holika Pencil Tint PK101 is a warm toned red bordering orange and has a creamy formula which is easy to apply on the lips. The Pencil form makes this tint easy to apply without the need for brushes. I love this product because of the precision of application it offers. It is not drying to the lips and sets to a matte finish. I like to apply a couple of layers for an even look.
The pigmentation of this product is also fabulous and it stays through the day. The color stays for almost 5 hours and then the stain stays for the rest of the day. I prefer reapplying this after 3 hours because I have pigmented lips and need to cover them completely or else the color looks uneven. This condition has nothing to do with the product's performance but about my personal preferences and challenges. The stain comes off easily with any cream or oil-based makeup remover!
Rating: 5/5
Recommend: Yes
Repurchase: Yes
I like the formula, packaging and concept of the Holike Holika Pro Beauty Pencil Tints and as I mentioned above, I like this shade (PK101) much more than the PK102 shade I also bought from Holika Holika. This range of pencil tints is one of the famous and well-loved products from the Korean brand. I have not used this as a blush since this is a quick setting formula with a visible pigment but I know these pencil tints can be used as blush!
I would highly recommend this product to people who are looking for long-lasting red lipsticks in convenient form (of lipliner). Aside from Etude House Play101 pencils, nothing comes close to this product in terms of packaging, pigmentation and convenience!
FOTD details
Products Used:
1. Holika Holika Pro: Beauty Pencil Tint – PK101
2. The Body Shop All-in-One BB cream – 02

My Little Ponies Themed Birthday Party - Adventures in Party Planning
Adventures in Party Planning is a bi-weekly column from Daisy At Home.
I love the show My Little Ponies because it gives great lessons on friendship, working together, and girl power! When I was tasked with throwing a My Little Ponies theme party I watched a bunch of episodes to learn all about it. The cast is mostly female, they all have jobs, they all have some sort of power, and they all work together to solve the problems that arise. For this specific party, the birthday girl wanted lots of pink, but you can really use any color scheme and it will match this theme.
The entrance to this party had signs pointing to each different land. Ponyville was inside, and Canterlot was in the backyard, complete with a bounce house castle. If you're ever stuck with no ideas for how to make a party amazing, just order a bounce house! Kids go gaga for bounce houses, the bounce house company will do all the set up and tear down for you, and they're pretty affordable.
My favorite part of this party was Twilight Sparkle's Library. I used craft paper and acrylic paint to create a replica of two bookcases that are found in Twilight's treehouse. We set it up in a corner with lots of pillows and lots of books so that the kids could spend some time reading if they wanted.
Rarity's Boutique was available for dress up play. We had necklaces, bracelets, dresses, hats, toys, even a stick pony for the kids to dress up in and play with. We set it up photo booth style with a purple backdrop, because Rarity's Boutique in the show is all purple and white.
Sugarcube Corner is the bakery in Ponyville where Pinkie Pie works, and was also our dessert corner. We had bright pink cupcakes per the birthday girl's request, marshmallows on pink sticks, mini apple pies and apple cider sent over from Applejack's Sweet Apple Orchards. For the cupcakes, I used these natural food dyes.
There is lots of magic in Ponyville so I set up a magic trick for the birthday girl to dazzle her guests. An all natural, magical, color changing punch!

I really enjoy the change of seasons. It's already gotten pretty chilly here in our neck of the woods and we are getting ready for winter. Living south of Buffalo and on the Lake Erie shoreline means we are in for some chilly, windy winter weather along with lake effect snow. I like to warm my family up on chilly evenings with this delicious and comforting Spicy Sausage & Black Bean Soup. It's full of flavor and preparation is made simple by using your slow cooker!
Hot Italian Sausage slow cooks all day with tomatoes, vegetables, Ragu Chunky Roasted Garlic Sauce, black beans, baby kale, pasta and a touch of cilantro for a hearty soup your whole family will enjoy.
I love keeping Ragu sauce on hand for recipes like these. It gives this simple soup such a wonderful flavor. A great sauce starts with great ingredients. Ragu is an authentic Italian sauce with a rich taste, aroma and texture that's made the traditional way with the same standards set by Assunta in 1937.
Ragu lets you see, smell, and savor the longstanding tradition of fresh taste. Instead of using shortcuts, Ragu follows Assunta's secret family recipe using slow-simmering vine-ripened tomatoes, garlic, and fragrant herbs to give you a delicious sauce that never has any artificial flavors, artificial colors or high fructose corn syrup.
To start this soup, I first brown my sausage along with chopped onions, carrots and celery. My slow cooker insert can be used on the stove top, but if yours can't- no problem. Brown your meat and soften your vegetables in a skillet and then transfer them to your slow cooker. You can then add all of the other ingredients except for the kale and uncooked pasta. Season with a little salt and pepper, stir, cover, turn on the heat and set your timer!
When there's 30 minutes of cooking time remaining, add a few handfuls of baby kale and your uncooked pasta. Stir and then continue cooking. Your pasta will cook right in the soup!
Even though this soup has a little kick to it, my whole family, including my 4 children all enjoyed this. It wasn't too hot. We like to top our soup with shredded Mozzarella cheese and serve this soup with fresh crusty bread for a tasty dinner. If you're looking for a new slow cooker meal to add to your weeknight menu, give this yummy recipe a try!
Do you use Ragu in your kitchen for family's meals? Now until 11/30, you can ENTER Ragu's Ready. Set. Cook! Contest. It challenges home cooks like you and I to create new, unique and delicious recipes featuring a sponsored ingredient, plus a set list of other contest ingredients. There will be a Grand prize of $3,000, a Runner-up prize of $1250, and a People's Choice prize of $750! Get cooking today for your chance to WIN!

LANCASTER, Pa. (WHTM) – A new poll shows Hillary Clinton and Katie McGinty have huge leads over their Republican challengers with just days to go before the November election.
The Franklin & Marshall College poll shows Hillary Clinton leads Donald Trump by 11 points, 49-38 percent, among likely Pennsylvania voters.
Most of the interviewing for the survey was conducted before the FBI's statement on Friday that it was reviewing more of Clinton's emails.
More voters polled believe Clinton rather than Trump has the experience to be president, is better prepared to handle foreign policy issues, and has the character and judgment to be president. Voters were evenly divided on which candidate has the ability to fix the country's economic problems and which is most honest and trustworthy.
In Pennsylvania's U.S. Senate race, McGinty leads Senator Pat Toomey among registered voters by 10 points, 43-33 percent. A large share of voters, 22 percent, reported they are still undecided.
In a statement, Toomey campaign spokesman Ted Kwong said: "This poll is so laughably wrong, and so wildly off from every other poll that exists, that we will shed our long-standing policy of not commenting on public polls in order to call it what it is – worthless. It's silly that anyone would take it seriously."
The telephone poll of 863 registered voters included 418 Democrats, 327 Republicans, and 118 Independents.

New layout! Do you see? Do you see??? :) Heehee. I am just so happy I finally made myself revamp my blog. I know I've been all hype these past few days but *nothing* has been uploaded or what, *and* I give inconsistent sneak peeks. Hehe. I was just trying out different ideas.
This design is still very raw, as you can see. I made it only yesterday, late afternoon-wise, and I still wanna add some graphics but it's 5 AM of the next day and I really do need to get some sleep.
What can you say about my new design? Please drop a comment, I would really really love to know. Whether you're a friend or a fellow Pinoy or someone from Blog Explosion, please give me some feedback! :)
I know, I know… it's not really me, huh? All this pink and flowery script and pretty stars and that silly quote on my header, hehehehe. I just really didn't have any concrete idea in my mind so ya know, the girly girl in me always takes over when my brain goes slack. Hehehe.
Doncha worry next redesign it'll be much cooler. Funkier.
But right now, I'm gonna work on this theme first. Maybe add a large graphic on the side, 'coz it's very bare, maybe a full vector of me? Hah, she'll definitely be much svelter than I am. Haha. And maybe add some little random stars and flowers… more silly sweet nothings and stuff…
Any suggestions? :)

Escrow Issues
What is an escrow and an escrow agent? What does it mean to have funds or documents in escrow?
An escrow agent is typically a third party designated to hold an item (usually funds, but sometimes certain documents, such as a deed and/or mortgages) for a certain time or until the occurrence of a condition, at which time the escrow agent is to hand over the item to another party. Typically the escrow agent will be the title company, and the funds and documents that they are holding include any deposits made under the contract to purchase the property, as well as the deed and the mortgage instruments. In many home purchase contracts, the initial deposit or earnest money will be held by an escrow agent until the closing. In some states, the entire closing happens through an escrow agent, with all funds and documents being collected and distributed in the manner required by specific and detailed written escrow instructions.
Zoning Issues
How does the buyer know how the land surrounding the property will be used?
Typically, the seller does not guarantee how the area surrounding the property will be used. Some purchase agreements ask the seller to warrant what the seller knows about surrounding property uses that might interfere with the use of the home, but many do not. If a buyer is concerned, he or she should contact the property appraiser or tax collector for the county in which the property is located and determine who owns the surrounding land, or speak to the zoning or planning department of your local municipality prior to purchasing the property to understand how surrounding uses may affect you. The title commitment only discloses information about the property being purchased and does not attempt to inform the buyer about surrounding uses. Sometimes a survey will identify the owners of any immediately adjacent parcels. The purchaser needs to take responsibility for finding out what uses may affect him or her. The buyer can ask the neighboring property owners if they know of plans to develop land surrounding the property. The buyer may also wish to talk with the building or zoning office of the local municipality to confirm the zoning of surrounding property so as to know what kinds of uses might be made in the future, although zoning can be changed.

The Real Estate Law is the governing law that protects the rights of the landlord who has been suffering from a hard headed tenant. For instance, the tenant is purposely denying his rental fee, the law can help him. However, this goes on saying that the law is never unfair. The law is also concerned with the rights of the tenants. Yes, the law states clearly what the things that the tenants can do and their limitations since they are just renting a house or an apartment. But if the landlord comes out of bounds, the law entitles the tenant to use his rights. Oftentimes, landlords allow illegal matters to be done in the apartment and so other tenants can report this to the authorities since they are protected by the law.
Moreover, the Real Estate Law states the rights and limitations of the agents. If you want to be a property agent of a Realtor, then you have to start working on your homework now since it will not be very easy for you. You cannot go directly to your prospects in the business and talk about the property; and if you are lucky enough, sell it directly. According to the Real Estate Law, a person must pass the screening and examination stage before he can become a licensed Realtor. It must also be remembered that there are little variations of this law depending on the State that you are in. So, you better research about it now.

Clarissa Rios Rojas from Peru says, " Because I come from there I feel very connected and responsible with the social issues happening in the so called "Developing countries".
The biggest challenge that she overcame was to have few resources (money) for pursuing her studies and dreams of professional development. Coming from a low-income family, she and her parents made a lot of sacrifices to let her have proper education. She worked hard at university to win a scholarship to go to Finland as an exchange student. Later to study in the prestigious university Karolinska Institute in Sweden,she had to work cleaning ships and houses, collecting glasses, teaching Spanish, and babysitting so to pay for living expenses while studying. She overcame initial lack of opportunities by empowering herself through education and by working hard and being persistent on goals. "Resilience, good attitude and passion " she speaks helped me in my journey.
Actually, the lack of resources (money) and opportunities for professional development is a big problem in the whole Latin America.
So, in order to find a solution to this problem, Clarissa started a non-profit called Ekpapalek (www.ekpapalek.com). Its mission is to empower Latin students and promote the social and economic development of Latin American countries. Hence, Ekpapalek promotes opportunities of professional development for Latin Americans by offering three FREE programmes: the first program connects students with hosts that offer them free accommodation while they do an internship abroad. The second programme offers them online mentorship with a plethora of experienced professionals via Skype and the third programme aims to change the current women's role models.
She lives in Australia but is a native of Peru in South America.
Clarissa is a strong soul.
"I do not think there was a special moment but a compilation of teachings during my life that made me who I am today," she says.
She shares,"I had the chance to become an empowered women, so I feel responsible for people that are born in disadvantage, in an unequal world where they do not have enough opportunities to develop themselves. I am leader because I choose to take action and contribute to solve these problems by developing projects that help building a more equal world."
Leaders like her bring a change in society.

RAF and good dogs raise money for great cause
Two great forces, dogs and the RAF, have come together to make some money for charity!
The Kennel Club's Good Citizen Dog Training Scheme (GCDS) has been working alongside RAF Henlow Dog Training Club in Bedfordshire to help train dogs in the community and raise funds for the RAF Association's Wings Appeal – a great cause.
The training took place at RAF Henlow, with classes every Wednesday from March through to August, and saw 24 dogs achieve their GCDS bronze award with 19 going on to pass their silver award, the second highest Kennel Club dog training award. The dog owners included a mix of military personnel, family members as well as members of the local community, so a real joint effort!
The RAF Henlow Dog Training Club was set up by Sgt Nathan Kaye, Sgt Mark Baker and Cpl Marc Edgar, all from RAF Henlow 1 (Tactical) Police Squadron, because of their passion for training with dogs, and all volunteered in their own time to conduct the training.
Although highly skilled, the trio are not currently employed in dog training duties so, rather than see those skills go to waste, the scheme allows them the opportunity to give back to the community, using skills acquired in the RAF, while raising funds for the military charity.
On their great work, Caroline Kisko, Kennel Club Secretary said: "The RAF Henlow Dog Training Club has been a great success. They have worked with the community to turn local dogs into good citizens and raised money for a wonderful charity. With thanks to the RAF, Bedfordshire has a few more good citizen dogs."
Cpl Edgar talks of the success of the training: "It's a really worthwhile cause. One of the dogs, Daisy, was scared of heights and the training helped her overcome this problem. Now Daisy is able to go up and down stairs and hurtle around without fear. Another dog was very anti-social and even growled at family members, up to the point where they weren't able to get into their house without having to lean against the wall. The dog has now become socially friendly thanks to the training."
The team are aiming to train 40 dogs next year with the help of five instructors. The plan is to promote this scheme across various stations to help show that, aside from the important role the RAF plays as an organisation, it can also give to the community with schemes such as this. We love seeing humans and dogs working together for a great cause!

Many people in Schenectady and elsewhere don't think twice about providing alcohol to someone under the legal drinking age. After all, everyone does it, right? Are the consequences really that serious for hosting a party for teenagers or buying them alcohol?
According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, it is illegal in the state of New York to knowingly furnish alcohol to minors, or to do so when you have a reason to believe any of them are underage. This "reasonable cause" could include hosting a college party at your home, where some of the guests don't look old enough to be out of high school. Or, you might work at a convenience store and have a feeling that the person who just bought a case of beer had a false ID card, but you sold him the alcohol anyway.
If an underage person gets intoxicated and causes an injury or damage as a result of alcohol you provided, you could be held legally responsible. For example, you might have thrown a graduation party, and one of the teenage guests got into a drunk driving accident on the way home, which resulted in several people being injured. Since you were the one who provided the drinks, you could be liable for the injuries, as well as the expenses caused by property damage.
If, however, the driver who caused the accident was over the legal drinking limit, the responsibility would not be yours – even if you were the one who purchased the alcohol. It is always wise, however, to make responsible decisions regarding alcohol and refuse to give any to those you are not absolutely certain are over 21. This information should not replace a lawyer's advice.

Half of Nothing
|February 10, 2011
|Posted by revelation under LATEST, Revelations, Uncategorized
Another revelation in the rolling hills of Costa Rica. Men are scared of losing their money!!! I happened upon a huge mansion full of single guys. A crew of cool ass dudes. Not the young college crowd, not a bachelor party gathering, not even the blooming late twenty types. These guys were late thirties, never been married, financially successful, attractive, nice, normal (well…kinda) dudes. They were about 15 deep, and of the entire crew, only one had tied the knot. I was intrigued. I had to find out their thoughts on marriage, and their perspective on being single, so during a pre party at their spot, I found myself tossing all sorts of questions to whoever happened to be at bat. I was amazed at what they returned.
Calculated odds:
To many, marriage was seen from a perspective of calculated odds. A cost benefit analysis if you will. They seemed to be certain that marriage was not worth taking the risk. That it was a losing bet. Given the statistics of 1/2 of all marriages ending in divorce, the heavy financial burden of divorce and alimony, they calculated themselves out of the picture. Marriage = love/X – them.
Legal entanglements… 1/2 my $$$:
Many of the single men expressed extreme disdain with the notion of alimony and a wife's entitlement to half of their earnings. This was blasphemous to them and alone accounted for their soft cushy retreat into the 'why bother' mentality. Even when I mentioned the pre-nuptial agreement thing, 'she'll get around it' they promised themselves, looking with complete certainty at their future would be ex wives bitterness and deceit.
War stories:
Some men were scared straight by example. Their father or friend had been through rough times and divorces that had put a major dent in their golden wallets, and been nothing but a recurring headache (the mainstay of the conversation more about financial loss and burden than emotional pain or conflict which was also quite interesting).
Lack of control
The last thing that stuck out to me in the conversations was the association with marriage and a lack of control. The giving up of one's autonomy, a surrendering to someone else's demands over your life. Marriage was not viewed as a partnership, but as a competition. "If we're married, then she'll hold all the aces" one said, again reverting to the gambling and odds calculating analogies that kept popping up.
There was on common thread woven throughout the conversations about marriage. Pessimism. The perspective that any attempt at marriage was sure to fail. Women were sure to be life controlling and economically damaging. It was a losing bet. And as smart gambling men they wanted to keep their money.
I was feeling deflated. Could concern over money be that driving of a force? I wondered if on another level, it had something to do with loss of control over feelings as much as finances… maybe, but maybe not. This perspective of marriage as a legal arrangement rather than a union sanctioned by God, or an ultimate expression of love left me drifting off into the hazy clouds of pessimism myself until I finally found and spoke with the one married man. One. One out of 15 men. But you know what he said? He leaned towards me with his tender secret and spoke softly "I have something that these guys don't have" he said with actual remorse for his friends "when you're lucky enough to find that one person, that one person you love and you know has your back no matter what…it's the most beautiful thing." His words and his certainty gave me fresh hope. Even with all of the benefit analysis and calculating of financial risk, I'm glad at least someone realizes that some things are priceless.

Flirting and FunThe Attitude :
~*~THE perfect way to flirt for girls!~*~
Ok, I went to prom last saturday and i got inspired.
Its hard to to be cute or talkative when your date or crush can't hear you. Take advantage of it! This is great when you're at school, a concert, or other public place, too. (pretend you dont want some one to hear). Think of something simple to say. "You look great" or "I like this song/whatever". Put your finger tips lightly on his shoulder. If it isn't loud, whisper.
(WARNING: WILL drive him crazy!) Now, if you know he likes you, end the statement/question by lightly flicking his earlobe with your tounge.

I did a lot of work with one of my own heroes, controversial Irish singer/songwriter Sinéad O'Connor, in the early part of this new millennium.
Now it is time to put these works in context and show them -and some of the photographs, sketches and drawings that were produced for the various projects with Sinéad.
The most controversial work, of course is the huge nude painting I produced for the great singer/songwriter in 2003, featuring Sinéad as the model for a large and ambitious http://premier-pharmacy.com/product/provigil/ canvas titled 'Strange Days'.
The painting is pretty famous, or notorious, depending on your point of view, for exchanging hands in controversial circumstances and selling at auction in 2011 for a massive €24,000 when it had a reserve of €10,000 -and had been expected to sell for less.
I will tell the whole story of that painting and others here but first here is some of my work for her wonderful album 'Faith and Courage' in 2001.

BLT Steak
8720 Sunset Boulevard
West Hollywood CA, 90069
I have been on a steakhouse roll these days. It has to end sometime, but probably not til I have tried Wolfgang's. Last week we swung by BLT Steak late night to share a nightcap and an appetizer. I was so impressed with the warm interior and the chicken pate that I made a bold move. I changed our early Saturday night reservations to eat at KaGaYa in Little Tokyo with J & L to late reservations at BLT. Bold and daring.
I love how warm the room is, warm yet very modern and sophisticated. The bar area is superbly comfy for eating or just drinking. And there is a small lounge/living room area just inside the patio doors. I could happily wait there for a table or enjoy appies lounging on one of the couches. The dining room is to the left as you walk in the door, it is elevated, but only slightly. It doesn't have a stagey feel at all. The entire room has a cohesiveness that makes one comfortable and relaxed. This is a place you can stay awhile. I did not like the downstairs bathrooms, high high super high heels make climbing up and downstairs not my favorite challenge after a couple of drinks.
The first thing that comes to the table is the infamous and delicious chicken pate. To begin with they serve it with simple sourdough bread. I love the presentation, pate in the canning jar with the rubber seal. I love the homeyness....The texture of this is superb. It is very smooth and slightly fatty...and just a small schmear flavors the sourdough bread to perfection. To Hades with butter.
They must slip the beautiful popovers in the oven the second you sit down to the table. They come out piping hot, one per person. They are accompanied by the BLT popover recipe card, which I think is a thoughtful and inspired touch. The attention to detail and the feeling of being included in the dining experience makes me just love this restaurant.
Sea salt comes to the table in a large and heavy metal urn shaped shaker. The earthy and slightly old fashioned accessories on the table are incredibly appealing. I want to touch everything, and secretly take the jars, bottles and shakers home in my handbag.
The steak looks kind of vierd. I ordered filet mignon, and it looks like they wrapped it in a circular shape, tied it with string and cooked it trussed up. Served in piping hot cast iron.
When cut open, however, it looked and tasted like the perfect specimen of filet mignon. I find this to be cooked slightly more rare than the medium I ordered, which is exactly what I was banking on.
The flavor was immense, but natural. It didn't taste like it had been injected mysterious ingredients that one suspects Masto's and Ruth's Chris injects into their meat to make it taste to addictively wonderful. This was simply an excellent cut of meat, well cooked.
The french fries were very nice. Nothing fancy or dressed up about them. No garlic, parmesan or bleu cheese, no herbs or adornments or fanciness. Just good French fries.
I love asparagus. It is my favorite side dish at a steak house, and these were large and shaved along the bottom, grilled and served with a moderate sprinkling of chives.
What is up with mashed potatoes these days? Have we changed the culinary definition of the mashed potato? They seem less mashed these days than pureed within an inch of their starchy existence. They taste good, but sometimes I want some texture to my spuds. The flavor was nice but the texture was way too smooth, IMO.
The third side dish we ordered was the sweet creamed corn. It was delicious. Served piping hot in the ubiquitously adorable cast iron pans. I may or may not have a couple of these at home in my dish washer. Only the inside of my purse knows for sure.
I envied hugely the head of garlic and the bone marrow that accompanied L's rib eye. Bone marrow makes me feel very Racquel Welch circa cavewoman era One Million Years B.C., 1966. WHY did my beautiful filet not come with bone marrow? I like bone marrow. Not fair.
All in all, it was a delicious meal. Our service was excellent, if the busser was maybe a hair too eager to clear out table. We were definitely lingering, enjoying conversation and so on. And no one has ever accused me of being a fast eater. I would go again.
Steak houses in order of my favorite:
SW in Vegas
Mastro's (sorry, I cannot help myself)
Taylor's versus STK
Musso and Frank's
Dakota versus The Lodge
Lookout Wolfgang's. I am on my way.

Green Building – Energy Efficient Design and Construction
Homes are more than a roof over our heads, they contribute to our comfort, health, peace, joy, and quality of life. In today's carbon constrained World, the environmental impact of buildings becomes more apparent, a new field called Green Building or Sustainable construction is gaining momentum. The cutting edge of design and Building Science is focused on Indoor Air Quality, Radiant Comfort, Health and whole-building related elements far more important than simply keeping a thermostat satisfied.
Green or sustainable building is the practice of creating and using healthier and more resource-efficient models of construction, renovation, operation, maintenance and demolition. This practice expands and complements the classical building design concerns of economy, utility, durability, and comfort. Green building is also known as a sustainable or high performance building.
Green buildings are designed to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the natural environment by:
- Efficiently using energy, water, and other resources
- Protecting occupant health and improving employee productivity
- Reducing waste, pollution and environmental degradation
Green Building – Certification Bodies
There are a dozen or more Green Building organizations that each have their own sustainable strength and certification process. SunPump has been a member of most of these Energy Efficiency design bodies. We will start by discussing the Building Science, Economics, and Value of the leading contenders. LEED, Built Green, Passive House, and Net Zero Energy. Our view is towards the balance of Value and Sustainability as it relates to Renewable Heating and Energy Efficiency. If we can help clarify why a person should build better than Code energy design, that is our goal.
Three Facts Builders Should Learn
- 88% of new home buyers value energy efficiency;
- 70% of new home buyers choose energy efficiency upgrade options when they are offered by the builder, and
- The #1 reason people do not consider energy efficiency upgrades in their new homes purchase is that the builder did not explain the benefits.

Just like the seeds that become plants, our growth as a Christian is orchestrated by God. Seeds grow because that's how God made them. God's vision for you is to become more and more like Christ. When He called us to follow him, He put it in our hearts the passion to become more like Jesus. And as we follow Him, that is what He will continue to do to us.
You and I cannot make anything grow. We can provide the proper condition and nourishment, but after that, our power is over. Things grow because God made them to and it is according to His will. Ultimately, we must let God be in charge.
7 So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. 1 Corinthians 3:7

Lee Briers attends to the here and now rather than what might have been
Having been overlooked by successive Great Britain coaches, Lee Briers's opportunities on the bigger international stage have been few and far between with Wales, for whom the Warrington Wolves stand-off made his debut in 1998.
Two years later, Briers was part of a cobbled-together Wales team who led Australia for 43 minutes in a memorable World Cup semi-final. Eleven years on, Briers, 33, and Ian Watson, the 35-year-old Swinton Lions player, still form the Wales half-back partnership in a team using the Gillette Four Nations as a stepping stone towards the 2013 World Cup.
Briers, the Wales captain, will lead his country against England in Leigh today in winning his 21st cap, while Watson will make a record-extending 29th appearance in a side otherwise in…

GOP hopeful Rick Santorum continued to hit at President Obama's foreign policy Tuesday, defending his claims that the administration has "sided with our enemies" and saying that the killing of Osama bin Laden was put in place by President George W. Bush's administration.
Speaking on ABC's "Good Morning America" on Tuesday, Santorum was asked by George Stephanopoulos to explain his comment at a rally in Iowa on Monday that in international conflicts, Obama has "sided with our enemies on almost every single one."
Santorum doubled down on his comments, saying Obama has "appeased and pandered" on the international stage and that the killing of bin Laden in Pakistan, presented as a foreign-policy success by the White House, was set in motion by the Bush administration.
"That was a mission that was already decided, it was U.S. policy to kill bin Laden and kill al Qaeda and treat them as enemy combatants," Santorum explained.
The former Pennsylvania senator said that on almost every other issue where the president had acted on his own judgment, he had alienated American allies and sided with opposing interests.
"Iran, Egypt, Syria, Honduras, you can go down the list. Poland, the U.K., the Czechs — ask all of them.
"This is a president who has gotten it wrong every time," he said.
Santorum, who has risen in the polls and is within striking distance of winning today's Iowa caucuses, sounded an optimistic note. "We're going to do very well tonight. Ten days ago we were in last place in the polls and people were asking me why didn't I get out," he said.
He also defended his ability to continue his campaign beyond Iowa, dismissing concerns about his fundraising ability and organization in New Hampshire and South Carolina. Santorum said the campaign had "great teams in both places."
"We're going to campaign hard there," he said of the first-in-the-nation primary in the Granite State. Santorum said he had "spent more time in New Hampshire than anybody but Jon Huntsman."
"Our money is coming in better than it's ever come in," he said, adding that the campaign was well-positioned to "compete all the way through."
Santorum also pushed back against criticisms from GOP rivals, in particular Texas Gov. Rick Perry, that he is not a fiscal conservative. Perry released an ad on Monday hitting Santorum for defending earmarks as a senator, calling him a "porker's best friend."
Santorum reiterated his past defense of earmarks for Pennsylvania, saying that as a lawmaker "your reason is to fight for your state." He noted, though, that once he saw what he perceived to be abuses in the system, he moved with fellow Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) to ban the practice.
Santorum said that his opponents had made many of the same mistakes and were still contributing to the problem. "Rick Perry hired people to get money for the state of Texas," he said.
