When new trends come along each season, I get that sometimes the shock of the "new" and "different" can be a little off putting at first, but usually I can come around to trends and eventually embrace them! That being said, not all trends end up finding up place in my heart. These are the ones that didn't make the cut for Spring.
- Straw bags – These bags just seem like a hazard to me. They seem like the type of piece that would snag and tear other pieces of clothing or break themselves. Plus as cute as they may be, they seem a little impractical to carry around all day.
- Velveteen bathing suits – Velvet + water = soggy suit. Right? Or maybe these aren't meant for water? In which case, that's silly
- Flowered bathing suits – Wouldn't the flowers just wilt and droop? Maybe I'm missing something. Or maybe these are also not meant for swimming either?
- See through (polyerthane) clothing – I'd say these just don't look attractive, but they also seem uncomfortable and not-breathable at all (leading you to perspire and fog up your clothing?)
- Smocked tops – I don't see how a top that squeezes in your chest and then expands at your belly can flatter or enhance anyone's best features.
- Unmatched jean pants – These pants seem like they were cut too short so extra material from other pants was added as an afterthought. Not a fan

Have you had an experience where your self-confidence suddenly deserted you?
What happened? How did you feel afterwards?
In response to a prior blog post, I've had several requests to write a more general article about self-confidence, so here it is. It's for anyone who's experienced a sudden loss of confidence, regardless of the cause.
I hope it helps you. If you know someone else it would help, please share it with them.
The Self-Confidence Trap
There are many myths, mistakes, and misconceptions about self-confidence. They create unrealistically high expectations about how we should feel, and this isn't good for our self-confidence. I call this the Self-Confidence Trap.
To help you recognise the Self-Confidence Trap, I've catalogued some of these myths, mistakes, and misconceptions below.
Self-confidence IS NOT
Something you either do or don't have.
We tend to think of people as being either self-confident or not self-confident, but this isn't true. We all have self-confidence. Whether we feel it depends on circumstances. Self-confidence can come or go – it's not permanent.
Never feeling uncertain, nervous, or afraid.
It's human to feel these emotions. Even people who seem very self-confident feel this way at times. What's important is what you do with these emotions.
Given to you by someone or something else.
How we feel is a result of our reactions to our environment in combination with what's happening in our inner world. You may have a positive reaction to people or circumstances and feel more self-confident as a result. These people or circumstances didn't give you the feeling, you did.
Necessary to have before you can act.
Imagine a world where nobody acted until they were 100% confident they were going to succeed. We wouldn't learn basic life skills such as walking if we didn't dare to try before we were confident we wouldn't fail.
A magic spell which guarantees success.
Have you ever felt confident about what you were doing, only to have it go wrong? Self-confidence doesn't equal success. Sure, it helps, but there are no guarantees.
Something successful people feel all the time.
Think about some people you deem to be successful. Have they taken risks, had setbacks or suffered failures? They most probably have, and since they're human they've probably had moments of self-doubt and lacked confidence.
What Is Self-Confidence?
The answer to this question is: 'it depends'. Whether you feel self-confident at any point in time depends upon a combination of the following:
- Environment: Your level of comfort with the situation/context.
- Emotions: Your general emotional state.
- Skill: You level of skill in the activity.
- Inner World: Your conscious and subconscious mind.
Self-confidence may not be easy, but it is EESI!
If you look closely at the list above, you'll see that you already have self-confidence, at least sometimes. These are your Comfort Zones – the Environments you're comfortable in and the activities you're Skilled in. Comfort Zones rarely trigger negative emotions or thoughts.
Take another look at EESI.
Unless you spend your life in your Comfort Zone, it's nearly impossible to feel self-confident all the time. I call the circumstances that challenge your self-confidence your Discomfort Zone.
Identifying Your Discomfort Zone
Did you answer 'yes' to the opening question? (that is, Have you had an experience where your self-confidence suddenly deserted you?)
If so, it's possible you were in a Discomfort Zone at the time. Let's examine what made the situation a Discomfort Zone by reviewing it using EESI.
Take your mind back and ask yourself these questions:
- Environment Was I comfortable in the situation/context? If not, why not?
- Emotions: Was my emotional state negative, neutral, or positive? Why?
- Skill: What was my level of skill in the activity? Why?
- Inner World: What self-talk did I hear? Write it down.
What did you discover?
Repeat this exercise as often as you need to, and pay close attention next time your self-confidence drops. Take note of the situation and look for any patterns or themes. Write them down and discuss them with someone you trust.
Building Your Confidence
Building your self-confidence is like building your fitness at the gym. You start with exercises you can do but which are challenging, and then you increase the level of difficulty and start adding new exercises.
Now it's time to go to the self-confidence gym. We're going to identify steps you can take from within your Comfort Zone into your Discomfort Zone. By doing this you'll expand your Comfort Zone.
Remember, you already have self-confidence. When you're in your Comfort Zone you trust yourself, and you know how self-confidence feels.
Once you've scrutinized your Discomfort Zone, you'll understand your triggers – those factors which cause your self-confidence to drop. You'll also have developed a better picture of your Comfort Zone, so you can safely take steps from here towards your Discomfort Zone.
Let's start! Review your Discomfort Zone description and analysis (EESI). Choose one top priority area to work on, and then work through the relevant exercise.
How much work you've got to do depends upon how far outside your Comfort Zone you're venturing. If it feels too much, get some help.
Keeping On Track
A good way to keep on track is to check in with yourself regularly. I recommend it. It's a good habit to have even if you're working through this with a support person. By doing this you'll strengthen your self-awareness muscles and be better prepared to recognise and deal with Discomfort Zone situations when they arise.
I suggest the two following options for self-check-in. Choose what works best for you:
Option One is to run through EEZI in your mind and act accordingly.
Option Two is what I do when I want to quickly check in on my current level of self-confidence. Ask yourself this question:
'Do I trust myself at this moment?'
If not, why not? Take things from there.
Keep it simple. The important thing is to practice, the more you practice the better you'll get.
I'd like to acknowledge the work of Dr Russ Harris 'The Confidence Gap – From Fear to Freedom' © 2010 and Susan Jeffers 'Feel the Fear … and Do It Anyway' © 2006 Ballantine Books. These works have helped me and informed the content of this article.
Did this article help you? What worked and what didn't? I'd love your feedback because it helps me help you.

DearTomorrow is a digital and archive project for people to personally connect with the issue of climate change, to commit to taking stronger action and to share these stories with friends, family and their social networks.
Our Vision
By the year 2020, we will reach 20 million people with 10 thousand unique, personal messages.
How it Works
Participants submit letters, videos and photos dedicated to their children, family or future self about climate change. These messages describe how participants think and feel about climate change, why it is important and what actions they will take to ensure a safe and secure future for their loved ones. These personal and hopeful messages are shared publicly on our website, deartomorrow.org, and on participants' social networks. They are also amplified through the media and associated public arts projects.
DearTomorrow opens up conversations across generations about why climate change is important in order to create the cultural shift necessary to transition to a world fueled by renewable energy. All messages become part of our long-term archive that will document the cultural shift arising person-by-person at this crucial moment in time.
Why DearTomorrow
Communication about climate change has had limited success in motivating and sustaining widespread interest and action. DearTomorrow makes climate change more personally relevant by connecting to the identities and values that people share across political and social boundaries: parental love, family and legacy. The project is designed with best practices in climate change communications, including narrative storytelling, visual imagery and trusted messengers.
Our Founding Story
Co-founders Jill Kubit and Trisha Shrum founded this project in 2015 to harness the powerful perspective that parents have on caring for the next generation. Jill Kubit brings expertise working on climate change communications, leadership development, coalition building and organizational development. Trisha Shrum, Ph.D., a behavioral scientist and environmental economist specializing in climate change communications and behavior, has been studying climate change policy and economics for over a decade. DearTomorrow is a fiscally sponsored program of United Charitable, a registered 501(c)(3) public charity.

Hello everyone!
We've already talked about pads, so why not go a step further and talk about tampons? More specifically o.b. tampons. Have you tried them before? I just did, and you have a chance to win a box to try them out too. Keep on reading for more details…!
I've used a few brands of tampons before, but I never tried o.b. because I always found it odd that there was no applicator.
So, how do you put these in if there is no applicator? Well, this lovely design on the box shows you how. Basically you make a finger puppet with the tampon, hee-hee!
These are definitely the most discreet tampons out there! Check out how they compare in size to a loonie.
Even if you don't have pockets in your clothes you could hide these somewhere on you.
And since there is not applicator, there is minimal waste.
As far as absorbency goes, they worked well. These are the Regular ones, and they also have Super, Super Plus, and Ultra for heavier flows.
And now here is the fun part: 25 of you will win a box to try them out for yourselves. That's right, TWENTY FIVE of my readers!
Mandatory Giveaway Requirements:

Nestled in the center of Eldoret town is a vibrant new restaurant Delicious Delight. Boasting an eclectic mix of Chinese, Italian, Spanish and Asian fusion cuisine, this eatery is indeed a gem.
Last Friday, I had the pleasure of having lunch with the @eldoretleo team. A vibrant trio with their right index finger on the pulse of Eldoret. It was a productive, fun afternoon that went on way past afternoon tea time; fortunately we were sufficiently satiated and didn't notice the time fly.
Parking is available immediately outside the building. As I approached the buildings' entrance, I was met by a uniformed gentleman who greeted me, asked if I was visiting the Delicious Delight and proceeded to escort me to the restaurant.
The ambiance is warm with deep pink and beige tones that allow the mahogany upholstered banquettes to bounce off boldly. Shaded overhead light provides soft lighting for the restaurant. The minimalist decor allows for the simplistic beauty of the food to shine.
We were seated at a table of our choice and promptly handed the menu. It was one hour before the lunch rush hour so they were not crowded yet. As I perused through the menu I noticed the activity going on around the restaurant. Since this was formally a supermarket, there were some renovations going on. But the diversity of the menu promptly grabbed by attention again.
Delicious Delight offers eclectic and fresh dishes. If you are indecisive on what food to order off the menu, allow the chef to come over and guide you or suggest a suitable option for you. We were spoilt for choice when presented with the menu.
Finally, we settled for Schezuan Chicken, Beef Mushroom and Fish Sizzling. These tantalizing dishes were accompanied by Mixed Vegetable Rice, Roast Potatoes, Sweet and Sour Rice, Chapatis, Egg Rice and Mixed Vegetables. I sampled them all. Ahem!
The Schezuan chicken was spicy though not as much as it looks in the pics. There was a hint of sweetness to the sauce, and the combination was just divine on the taste buds.
The Beef Mushroom was rich and creamy with nuances of black pepper.
The fish sizzling was…let me put it this way. If this meal was an abstract painting, the fish sizzling would be the bright orange spot on the left hand corner that your eyes just keep getting pulled towards. Sublime.
The rice dishes were just as delicious each with their own unique color, taste and flavor. The cauliflower vegetable dish was delightful, with the vegetables retaining a refreshing mild crunch. The potatoes were fork ready with a crispy tasty coating. The chapatis were cooked with carrot and coriander. I'm not the greatest fan of chapatis so I breezed past. They were nice.
The service was impeccable, with the waiter paying keen detail to our orders. The service team are pleasant and neat in their black and white branded uniforms.
All the dishes are strictly By Order, which I appreciated because it is a good indication to the freshness of the food. You can also call to make reservations. If you require to have any of their delectable dishes delivered to you, they will accommodate your request. A meal will set you back Ksh.500 on average.
Tempted as I may be to keep Delicious Delights to myself, there is no doubt in my mind that it is going to create a buzz in the town.
To get in touch with Delicious Delight Restaurant, call 0790571114. They are open 7 days a week for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

"We all have dreams. But in order to make dreams come into reality, it takes an awful lot of determination, dedication, self-discipline, and effort."
-- Jesse Owens, Olympic Athlete
"My weight loss journey has been filled with a lot of highs and lows. I was on vacation with my family and put some pictures on Facebook, and I got some unsavory comments out of concern from friends about my weight. Lol...somebody asked if I was pregnant, while some poked fun at me by crediting my weight gain to consuming too many burgers and beer. I had a talk with my doctors, and we decided I needed to change my eating habits, cut certain medication, and get lots of rest whenever I needed it, because I work the night shift. So, I started Insanity (home video program), quit the first time, struggled to complete it the
second time, got toned but the weight just came right back. *In July 2014 I found CDFIT online and I told my doctor about it. Once again, he recommended I walk daily, and eat properly for a month. Then ease my way into the intensity CDFIT was offering, and that I did and joined in August 2014. I did the 2 months Groupon trial and after the 4th month I figured it was time to quit. I got some tone but my scale wasn't moving. I told Clarence and Judson of my intent to quit, and of course the $90 fee wasn't sounding appealing to me either. Judson and I had a heart to heart and we figured the problem was from my eating habits aka frequent restaurant visits and big appetite for my grandma's/big sister's home cooking and pastries.

Everyday we go through life experiencing some type of social human interaction. In order to get between social experiences, people use transport. Often, they are alone, either getting to and from work, university, or just general life activities. Because of this, transport can be a lonely task, filled with crowds, dim lighting, dodgy seating and ripped carpet. I want my audience to feel the solitude of transport; the loneliness of transit.
One thought
I really like your photography.
Well done !

Published at Saturday, August 31st, 2019 - 02:07:27 AM. Chandelier Lamps. By Serihilda Ziegler.
With its power as well as the number of lights, this chandelier promises to give you adequate lighting on its designated place in the house. Every piece, including the crystals, has been made using materials of high quality which increases its durability as well as its reliability. It takes time to assemble the chandelier, but this is compensated by the elegance it brings
Chandeliers work best as a supplementary light source and even better when incorporated into a layered lighting scheme. For example, incorporating recessed cans, cove lighting, or wall sconces in a room are great ways to accent the space, highlight walls, paintings, plants, countertops, and cabinets.

Due to the significant prevalence of chronic illnesses in the United States, engaging patients in health promotion activities is imperative. mHealth apps have the ability to complement the family nurse practitioner's (FNP) prescribed care plan, and offer a user friendly, convenient method to promote healthy behaviors and lessen the prevalence of chronic disease. The purpose of this descriptive, quantitative study was to describe FNPs' intent to use and use of mHealth apps for health promotion with their patients using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), and to determine the types and frequencies of apps recommended by FNPs.

In some ways it is a different approach and maybe it could help some people. It is an approach that most definitely would have to be implemented by the government or a company. If a family tried to do this for a loved one, it would certainly bring about extreme tension and heartache for all. It wouldn't bring anything positive in the long run or the short run. Do you think this would help reducing the problems that alcoholics face in the long run? Short run? What would you do if one of your loved ones accepted a place in a program like this? I know there was a program in the USA where the alcoholic had a certain amount of alcohol each day, of whatever kind they liked. They had the option of keeping it under their control and consuming it as they chose or else letting staff keep their alcohol. If staff kept their alcohol, the booze was doled out in set amounts at set times, and it was more or less treated like a prescription. I don't know if that program is still running or what the outcome was for patients was in the long run. I do know that after a year or two, some patients tapered their alcohol consumption because they no longer felt they needed it.

The latest film to emerge out of the Marvel Universe (17th, to be precise), Thor Ragnarok is a refreshingly entertaining superhero action flick, perfect for a weekend trip to the cinema with family and/or friends.
Cast (in alphabetical order): Anthony Hopkins, Benedict Cumberbatch, Cate Blanchett, Chris Hemsworth, Clancy Brown, Idris Elba, Jaimie Alexander, Jeff Goldblum, Karl Urban, Mark Ruffalo, Sam Neill, Taika Waititi, Tessa Thompson, Tom Hiddleston.
Directed by: Taika Waititi
Plot:!! WARNING: Possible Spoilers Ahead !!
Thor:Ragnarok is set two years after the Battle of Sokovia (taking off where Avengers: Age of Ultron ended).The initial sequence of the movie starts off with Thor, the Norse god of thunder, imprisoned in chains and about to be barbecued by a fire demon called Surtur. Surtur reveals that Thor's father Odin is no longer in Asgard, which will soon be destroyed by Ragnarok, or the "end of days" that has been foretold in an ancient prophecy. After defeating Surtur, Thor sets off on a quest with his step-brother (and former arch-enemy) Loki, to find Odin (who is obviously a god himself).
Thor and Loki find Odin on Earth. Odin warns them that he is dying and that his death will set his firstborn, Hela, free from the prison she was jailed in a long time ago. Things happen as predicted and Thor and Loki find themselves combatting Hela, who turns out to be much more powerful than them. She even destroys Thor's hammer! Hela forces Thor and Loki out into the space to die, but Thor lands on the garbage-planet of Sakaar. It is ruled by a being called Grandmaster, who makes Thor one of his gladiators. Thor is forced to compete in a Contest of Champions against none other than his fellow Avenger, Hulk. The rest of the story revolves around how Thor convinces Hulk and others to return to Asgard to save it from Hela's tyranny and certain annihilation.
As far as the story treatment goes, the third installment of the Thor series is totally different from the previous two movies. While they were more serious and heavy-handed, Thor:Ragnarok is more humorous and snappy. The visuals are much more colorful and the music is energetic with a distinct 80's feel.
As far as the acting is concerned, both Chris Hemsworth and Mark Ruffalo are given a lot more margin to perform. Jeff Goldblum as the Grandmaster is deceptively sinister and Cate Blanchett looks like she's enjoying herself too much to care about the sheer predictability of the story. Yup, the story arc is pretty much what you expect from a Marvel, or even DC, movie. But that doesn't mean it's a bad movie. In fact, it is one of the most refreshing and entertaining movie to come out of the Marvel Universe in a long time.
Verdict: Thor:Ragnarok will most probably not become your most favorite movie, but it is definitely worth a watch (don't forget to take your 3D glasses )

If you just had a breakup, you will need a fresh start in life. You would want to do away with the monotony and dissatisfaction of your marital life. One good way to begin is by doing an interior design overhaul to inspire yourself for a positive life a simple change in furniture arrangement in your apartment. Even otherwise, there is a good reason to redecorate your home post break up—you want to get rid of a décor that is a reminder of bad times. Redecorating has several other psychological benefits. Read on to know ways to redecorate your house after separation.
Do away with reminders of the past
Start your redecoration project by getting rid of all past items, especially furniture, since it gives you a chance to get custom made furniture. Empty out your drawers put the old photographs in the trash. Psychologists suggest that chaos and clutter can add to the stress, and de-cluttering is crucial for moving on successfully. Items in your old décor might bring back memories of arguments or other such events. Replace old shelves and vases with new ones.
Paint your walls afresh with brighter colours
Painting your walls might seem trivial, but colours have the ability to help you get rid of negative thoughts and feel more optimistic. Drive out old colours from your walls and repaint it in brighter colours. If you want more understated colours, subtle grey and pale blue can reinstate peace and order in your life. Painting the rooms in fun colours you have always liked can help you assert yourself. Another option is to go for wallpapering.
Brush up your furniture scheme
Buying new furniture can be expensive. Shopping is said to be therapeutic, but it might not be the best time to splurge, especially after the breakup expenses you have incurred recently. You can instead get a new sofa from a furniture rental company on a rental basis. It is far less expensive. Custom made furniture is another good option if you want both functionality and decoration. You could get a smaller bed custom made for yourself as well. Rearranging furniture or mix and match your furniture designs is also an option for those on a tight budget. Rearranging techniques work well both on your state of mind and your interior design.
Use lighting to light up life
Light can play a significant role in helping you embrace life afresh and move on from an unsuccessful marriage. If you haven't paid much attention to having separate sources of ambient, task, and accent lighting, doing it after your break up is the best time. This is particularly necessary to make up for natural light lost in homes without western exposure. Dimmers are a must because they help you change the brightness according to your mood.
Incorporate new furnishings and special items in your décor
Visit antique shows or flea markets and get special items for that new table you bought from your furniture rental company. You will have empty space for fresh wall décor. Use that to put up new photographs of yourself and your friends or any new trips you might have gone on. If you had to discard any personal favourites like old mugs or family rugs earlier, it is time to bring them back.

The popular Portuguese Caldo Verde soup is loaded with potatoes, collard greens or kale and ham hock or chorizo. It's a hearty favorite perfect for the coldest days of winter.
Caldo Verde is a popular soup in Portuguese and Macanese cuisine made with potatoes, collard greens/kale, olive oil and salt. Other ingredients such as garlic, onions, ham hock, chorizo or linguiça can be added to enhance the flavour. This dish is then accompanied with a corn bread named broa which is used for dipping in to the hearty broth. This dish is a celebratory dish in Portugal hence you will see it in weddings, birthdays and other celebrations.
This dish originated in the Northern province of Portugal called Minho and now it is has a big global footprint and can be seen on places influenced but the Portuguese like Macau, Brazin, New Jersey and Rhode Islands. Today we will not be making it traditionally as I will be using a whole bacon hock to give it a much richer flavour.
- 2 pcs 400g bacon hock
- 1 large bunch curly kale, roughly chopped
- 3 large floury potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 8 cups chicken stock
- 1 large white onion, finely diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tbsp butter
- salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- In a stock pot add butter then sauté garlic and onion in low heat until onions are soft.
- Add some olive oil then gently brown then bacon hock on all sides.
- Pour the chicken stock then bring it to a boil. Cover the stock put and bring to simmering heat, cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Add the kale and potato, then continue to simmer in low heat for 30 to 45 minutes or until the potatoes become very soft and easy to mash.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper then serve.

mrphil: Anyone get their own phone back?
We sent away the phone and just got a email from apple saying there isn't any problems with the button so they just going to send the phone back to us.
What a waste of time being without a phone for the last week
A bit harsh on a really great support Apple offer. Hmmm why would you send it in if the button was working. Mine did not work at all and yes they just replaced the phone. Considering I had a huge scratch on the front glass, near dead battery and a very chipped rear case I'm over the moon as I now have basically a new phone. Apple didn't cause me any delay as I used a spare iPhone we have and have always had spare a spare phone to use.

REGARDING Councillor Ian Hedley's letter in the Solihull News 'Doing Our Best'. His comments about asking residents to keep the side roads clear by using grit in the bins provided, I ask what bins? Living in Charles Road where there is a very busy doctor's surgery, a roundabout with Witherford Croft and the road is also used as a rat run we didn't have any grit to use.
In bad weather the roundabout is like a skating rink. Until last year we always had a grit bin there - no one ever used it for "private" purposes.
One of my neighbours rang Solihull Council to ask why the bin had not been provided, as cars were skidding sideways and was told that the Highways Dept. had done a risk assessment in November and decided it was not a priority.
Is an ambulance car skidding around the island, hitting the curb and the driver losing control of the said car of no consequence? That was one of dozens of similar incidents. Before Councillor Hedley makes statements about residents gritting side roads I suggest he gets his facts right.
V Rice, Solihull
The real culprit
I READ Solihull Council Leader's comments (December 31) with disbelief regarding the Government Grant. The Lib Dem decision to form a coalition with Labour locally – the Party that took our country into such massive debt – gives them no credit at all when it comes to managing finances.
As a result of Labour's mismanagement, we are now paying £150 million every day in interest alone. It should be the Labour culprits that are hunted out, not today's Government working hard to put the 'great' back in Great Britain.
Maggie Throup, Solihull resident
In a right mess
I read with interest the council leader's piece in last week's paper about the low Government Grant.
Why has this council now got seven cabinet members when in the past Council there were only six?
How much does the council have in its reserves?
Why did the council leader and his political party decide to set up a coalition with the very political party that got us into this mess?
Concerned Solihull Resident
Well said Phil
I'D like to comment on the excellent letter by Phil Kingzett in last week's Solihull News. It was in response to the people who wrote claiming that the Parkgate rejection was some sort of victory to Shirley residents.
As a father of three young children, the letter summed up exactly what I and many other residents really feel about the decision.
I'm aware that some people are just resistant to any sort of change. I seem to recall similar objections when the Touchwood plans were first announced. The problem is that this vocal minority tend to shout the loudest and give the impression to some that they represent a majority.
I can also understand that a survey asking residents whether Shirley is in need of another supermarket, would perhaps get a majority answering 'no'.
However, if the question being asked is whether Shirley residents would welcome a multi million pound investment that includes a new Asda store, create new jobs, regenerate Shirley etc. the answer would be a resounding 'yes'.
The point being that the plans mean much more than just a new supermarket.
Admittedly it is sad to see the loss of any parkland, but this represents a tiny proportion and in my view is fully justified by what is being proposed.
Now, instead of getting these much needed improvements, the tax paying residents are in a ludicrous position of having to fund an appeal to justify not wanting them. I'm still hoping that common sense will prevail at the appeal.
Paul Abbott, Shirley

Shave me closer, tiny razor
Why are razors so expensive? Well, I don't know, but I do know this: If you cheap out and buy the generic brand, you will nick yourself and wind up foraging around for a styptic pencil, and eventually you'll wish you hadn't bought the cheapest possible razor. Sorry, but it's true. (I speak from experience, having regretted impulse buys of both Walgreens brand and Bic Soleil disposables. Cheap in all senses of the term!)
So, when it comes to shaving, spend a few more bucks (if you can) for the ones that work without tearing up your skin in the process. Venus is always a reliable brand, and now the razor is available in the tiniest, cutest little travel version: the Venus Snap razor. I'm not joking when I say that it's literally about the size shown in this picture. The idea is that you can tote it around in its wee plastic case for quick and easy shaving on the go. (Read: to the gym, on vacation.)
It takes any normal Venus cartridge and is surprisingly easy to maneuver. But really, don't be surprised if you find yourself cupping the Snap and cooing, "Who's a cute little razor? You are! YOU ARE!"
Not that I would know anything about that.

Local Reviews
for Ashburn, VA
Arrived on site to complete heat season maintenance. Inspected systems in heat test mode and verified proper operations and documented all findings. Found unit 2 to not be firing. Unit was locked out on no flame code. Tested system and found gas regulator not passing gas flow. Open and and closed regulator to free debris. Unit fired up and is operational. Getting the Regulator replaced will stop this from happening again. Also found same u it to have chattering contactor making noise. Needs replacement as well. Waiting quote for replacement. Maintenance complete.
Up on arrival performed operational inspection. Changed all filters, belt are in good condition. Checked all electrical components, found RTU # 1 have weak capacitor ( 20uf +/- 6% ) , recommend to replace it . Tested all the units. All units working good at this time .
Colin T.
Upon arrival I found front unit locked out on high Limit. Reset and tested. Found very poor airflow, almost no return air and a lot of discharge pressure. Traced return duct in lobby and found dampers open. Traced supply and found main Damper 80% closed. No idea if it was left that way or vibration caused it to close. Opened all of the way and secured lock so it stays open and I could hear air pressure greatly reduce. Tested heat and ac operations afterwards and found no additional problems. Unit operating normal.
Daniel M.
Costumer stated that front thermostat was not working . It was set for heat at 73 and was 71 in space . Found that the unit was short cycling on limit . My return air was 94 degrees and supply air 154 degrees . Found a gap where the unit sits on the curb and supply drop . I sealed the gap using metal tape . Turn power back on and checked operations . My return air dropped from 94 to 75 . My supply air dropped from 154 to 140 . My supply air was still to high . I adjusted the pulley to speed up the rotations. After doing that my supply air dropped down to 131 with a return air of 76, 55 degree TD . Heat is operating properly . Costumer also said she turned on the ac and the space never cooled down. I turned on the ac and checked operations . System has an economizer and it completely opened when calling for ac . Outside air temp is 49 degrees . System is working
Colin T.
Upon arrival I was told that thermostat in back clinical area wasn't working. Found thermostat was satisfied upon arrival so I called for more heat by increasing temp. Went to roof and checked operation. Found no faults or problems, system satisfied thermostat. Walked around building to find same electrical box that was at Manassas. They look to be brand new and speculating they are a backup power source for equipment. Panel is only labeled suite 104 which is the express care. Can't be a coincidence that both locations that have brand new electrical boxes were calling for service because of power failure to thermostats. Speculating electrical work was done earlier in the day and when power was restored, systems started working again. Units operating normal.
Colin T.
Upon arrival I got unit info then picked up filters and belts from supply house. Came back and performed maintenece. Replaced filters and belts. Inspected coils and blowers. Inspected heat exchanger and cleaned burners. Checked capacitors and contactors. Tightened all electrical connections. Ran heat and checked operation. Measured heat rise and amp draw. Let systems satisfy thermostats. Units operating normal.

FCA warns CEOs to tackle non-financial misconduct
The FCA has warned CEOs that how a firm handles non-financial misconduct is indicative of a firm's culture. It is the FCA's view that embedding healthy cultures includes, therefore, taking steps to address the discrimination, harassment and bullying that remains "prevalent" in firms. In a 'Dear CEO' letter (the Letter), which follows recent incidents in the wholesale general insurance sector, the FCA considers the need for fundamental change in firms' culture and calls on leaders to bring about that change.

Meaux, an historical past ?
The role of the millstone
During the Tertiary and Quaternary eras, a long period of lakeside and marine sedimentation allowed deposits of millstone, limestone, green clay and siliceous sand to form.
This period was followed by slow erosion, which caused the formation of the Brie plateau.
This limestone formation was very often covered by a layer of cavernous millstone, used for building houses, and whose insulation powers contributed for a long period of time in regulating inside/outside temperatures before the our modern constructions were invented.
The lower layer, which is much more dense, was used for making mills to grind grain. These siliceous rocks, often cavernous, are very widespread in the Paris region. Lacking our current methods of transports, businesses were set up right on the exploitation sites.
This is how the town of La Ferté-sous-Jouarre, only a few kilometres away from Meaux, became a very important centre for the exploitation of these rock formations.
In the fifteenth century, monolithic millstones were already being made with large blocks extracted from the plateau.
These enterprises comprised more than 800 people who worked from the stone quarry up until the transportation of the finished millstones, which became renown throughout the world, and were exported to England and to North America. The millstones from La Ferté-sous-Jouarre were known as the best in Europe.
The millstone workers' job was one of the most unhealthy in the world. The millstone quarries were in the open air, and in most cases, the stones were extracted using hammers, sledgehammers, and crowbars. The atmosphere was infested with millstone dust, which left most of the workers with no more than twenty years professional activity before succumbing to galloping consumption. The workers also drank a lot of alcohol, and bad alcohol at that, which certainly did not help matters.
Once the stone extracted, the work was finished on site, the stone being broken up in the direction of the faults seen in the rockbed. The stone was then set into shape with the help of a sharp-pointed hammer.
At first, the millstones were cut out of one block, then the workers spent weeks cutting them, polishing them, making furrows, but in a fault was discovered in the rock at the end of the process, then it had to be abandoned.
Then work-shop assembled millstones appeared.
Indeed, it became easier and safer to work with several pieces that were assembled in a template, which were then solidified with plaster at first, then later by cement.
At the centre of the millstones was a round hole known as an 'eyehole' allowing the grains to go down into the mill.
Next, the millstones were encircled in iron, then set into shape to make them as smooth as possible.
Then came the final stage before their entry into the active phase, furrows needed to be made going from the centre to words the circumference, while maintaining an entrance near the hole.
Each furrow and line was adapted to the seeds to be crushed. These were obviously different for mustard seeds and for corn. The balancing of the millstone was the final important stage, ensuring there was no unbalance in order to not wear down one side more than the other, and to keep a "supple" rotation.
he maintenance of the furrows of the millstones was done either by the miller himself or by a maintenance worker.
The manufacturing of millstones has completely disappeared since 1880 by conglomerate millstones and cylinders.
At the beginning of the last century, in this region, there were 250 windmills, as well as water mills.
Today, only one windmill which survived this upheaval has been renovated, in Gastins, which is near Rozay-en-Brie.
Its most striking characteristic is in the wooden sails designed by the engineer Berthon. It also has two pairs of millstones fro La-Ferté -Jouarre.
We would like to help the Eco Musée de la Meulière for the documents and information provided.

Meaux, the other mustard region
Meaux is situated 60km west of Paris. One of the administrative centres of the Seine-et-Marne department (77), it has a population of over 50 000 people (the inhabitants are known as "Meldois").
The history of Meaux has been subject to the whims of the twists and turns of the Marne, river on the banks of which the town is built.
In ancient times, the Ourcq canal and the Marne river formed a vast circle at the north of the town, which is where a Gallic tribe lived. They were known the "Meldis", and gave their name to the town.
From the fourth century onwards, the town became a cathedral town, and later the capital of the Brie region.
The first links between religious orders and mustard date back to Charlemagne's time. This king asked the monks to cultivate mustard in cathedral towns such as Meaux. He also protected the windmills which belonged to the monks, as well as the stone quarries, hence some struggles between different ecclesiastic groups (in particular the priory of Reuil, which held the millstone quarries in the area, and whose competitors were the abbess of St-Benoît [Benedictine], or the nuns of La Ferté-sous-Jouarre with the Chanoines du Chapitre [Canons]).
In the eighteenth century, several mustard mills were to be found, some of the manufacturers owned their own mill and others had become specialised in the flour trade, and sold their flower to craftsmen who made mustards destined partly for human consumption, and partly for medical and pharmaceutical use.
Mustard was consumed in great quantities, as it overpowered the taste of foods, which were not always as fresh as they could be.
As early as 1771, there were mustard makers in Meaux, who had taken over from the Chanoines, at a scale which was rather industrial for that time.
Alongside his mustard company, J.B. Pommery exploited a millstone quarry. The secret of Meaux Mustard had been passed on to him by the Chanoines. In 1890, the Pommery family were the only mustard makers left.
In 1925, the manufacture left the family to go into a modern production era.
Today, Pommery's Meaux Mustard has kept the same recipe as in the past, its ingredients are carefully selected for their different qualities.
This gives the product a quality that many people have tried to copy.
The quality of the stoneware used, the most natural products, but also of its natural non-compressed cork, allow its conservation and help it to cross the planet in all directions.

text: Verdi composed 'Otello' to a libretto by Arrigo Boito based on Shakespeare's play. After a violent and heroic first scene with disputes and brawls, the imposingly authoritarian Otello is cast in a more human and tender light in the second scene, alone with his new wife, the serene Desdemona. 'Già nella notte densa' is their ensuing love duet which takes the form of an operatic conversation. Otello describes the atmosphere of the night, Desdemona sings of how Otello's stories of his past adventures had first won her heart, then they end with a paraphrase of Shakespeare's line 'She lov'd me for the dangers I had passed, And I lov'd her that she did pity them'.

Animal welfare authorities are investigating the death of a giraffe after it banged its head on an overpass while being transported on a motorway in South Africa.
The giraffe, one of two on the back of a transport truck en route to a game farm, was seen bleeding badly after the incident on Johannesburg's N1 motorway yesterday, reports eNCA.com.
Witness Thinus Botha tweeted that he had been driving behind the truck when the animal struck its head on Garsfontein Bridge.
He tweeted a photo of the giraffes just before one of them hit its head.
The truck broke down afterwards and had to wait several hours to be repaired.
Both animals were then taken to a vet but one died on arrival.
The National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animal confirmed the giraffe had sustained a head injury but said that an autopsy was needed to determine the cause of death.

This is a scalable context timeline. It contains events related to the event July 2001: FBI Warns New York Police Officers about the Possibility of a Major Terrorist Attack. You can narrow or broaden the context of this timeline by adjusting the zoom level. The lower the scale, the more relevant the items on average will be, while the higher the scale, the less relevant the items, on average, will be.
Representatives of the FBI warn members of the New York Police Department (NYPD) that a serious terrorist attack is likely. Late one Friday this month, NYPD Chief of Department Joseph Esposito holds a meeting, which the FBI representatives come to. The FBI representatives reveal that there is a lot of "chatter" going on and a major terrorist attack is likely to occur. "They didn't know when or where, but indications were that it would be overseas," author Will Merrill will write. The matter is considered serious enough that a meeting has been called "in New York City late on a Friday afternoon" to discuss it, Merrill will note. [Merrill, 2011, pp. 155]

Joseph Esposito. [Source: NYPD]Soon after the second plane hits the World Trade Center, the New York Police Department (NYPD) Chief of Department Joseph Esposito calls for the initiation of something called Operation Omega. This puts New York on the highest state of alert, and requires the protection of sensitive locations around the city. NYPD headquarters is secured and all other government buildings are evacuated. [9/11 Commission, 5/18/2004 ; 9/11 Commission, 7/24/2004, pp. 302] Operation Omega is reportedly still in effect a month later. [New York Post, 10/6/2001]

Jay Kopstein. [Source: Jay Kopstein]Richard Ohlsen, an employee at the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Region II office in Lower Manhattan, goes to the headquarters of the New York Police Department (NYPD), but is initially denied entry into the building and, once inside, experiences various difficulties as he tries to respond to the terrorist attacks. Following the second crash at the World Trade Center, the FEMA office was unable to communicate with Office of Emergency Management personnel in WTC Building 7 and so Ohlsen was told to go to WTC 7 to act as a liaison there (see (After 9:03 a.m.) September 11, 2001). As he was on his way out, though, the South Tower of the WTC collapsed (see 9:59 a.m. September 11, 2001). FEMA Employee Is Denied Entry into the Police Headquarters - Consequently, instead of going to the WTC site, Ohlsen heads to the command center at NYPD headquarters, at One Police Plaza. When he arrives at NYPD headquarters, however, officers refuse to let him in because they do not recognize his FEMA identification as being official. Fortunately, Jay Kopstein, an inspector with the NYPD who happens to be passing by, recognizes him and takes him up to the command center. Employee Lacks Priority Access to the Phone Network - Ohlsen's problems continue, however, after he arrives there. Ohlsen does not have with him a special GETS (Government Emergency Telecommunications Service) phone card, which gives government and emergency workers priority to make phone calls during a crisis. Consequently, when he wants to reach FEMA headquarters in Washington, DC, he has to contact it through the normal collect call procedures, even though this is a national emergency. And when he does get through, he is told that responsibility for dealing with the attacks in New York has been transferred to FEMA's Region I office in Massachusetts, as part of the agency's standard continuity of operations procedures, and so all requests are meant to go through there. Officials Refuse to Open an Equipment Cache - Ohlsen also runs into difficulty when he asks for an equipment cache that contains personal protective gear and search and rescue equipment for New York City's urban search and rescue team to be opened. He is incredulous when, in light of the current situation, officials with the New York City Fire Department, which maintains the cache, refuse his request, supposedly because no one from the federal government has authorized the use of the equipment. Ohlsen apparently persists and eventually gets the cache opened, since he will later describe this setback as "the first problem he was able to resolve" after arriving at the command center.

So in tribute, here's a photo from each year that I've had him.
Three Years Old
|Bakersfield Dressage
He's a Teenager!
I'd like to wish Speedy G a very happy (belated) birthday. Speedy turned 13 on Saturday! I love that he's turned out to be such a good boy, but hitting his teen years also means that he's no longer on the young horse side of things. While maybe not quite middle-aged yet, he's getting closer to the top of that hill.
So in tribute, here's a photo from each year that I've had him.

Hope you make more at the fiber show than just enough to cover costs! Curious to see what the sale Tencel does when you wash and dry it - my bet is that is doesn't change too much from the way it looks on the cone.

M.S. in Nursing – Leadership and Management Track Program Details
Read more about MSOE's M.S. in Nursing – Leadership and Management Track graduate degree.
The Leadership and Management track of the Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) program from MSOE, with its unique blend of nursing and business concepts, will equip graduates with the knowledge and skills necessary to function effectively in the health care environment. MSOE's MSN program is based on the fact that nurses at mid-management, executive levels and nurse entrepreneurs must have the capacity to manage financial resources, manage human capital, analyze large data sets, understand complex organizational systems, and ensure quality and safety, all through the lens of nursing practice. The curriculum in the MSN program meets this need by blending the expertise of the faculty of the School of Nursing and the Rader School of Business with the student's knowledge and experience.
Designed to accommodate busy working professionals, courses are available through either online or via blended-online format. The on-line format allows convenience for distance learning while the blended-on-line format combines the benefits of face-to-face interaction with the convenience of online learning. Both formats provide flexibility to balance graduate education with work and family responsibilities.
Blended Internet delivery combines the rich faculty/student interaction that is the hallmark of an MSOE education with the flexibility of online learning. The amount of time students spend in class is reduced, while time spent on project-focused learning is enhanced. MSOE's blended classes meet face-to-face three or four times per quarter.
Geography is not a constraint for students interested in completing the MSN at a distance. In addition to the blended Internet format mentioned above, there also is an option to take courses via 100% online distance delivery. The rich faculty/student interaction that is the hallmark of an MSOE education is replicated in online classes creating dynamic and flexible learning environments.
The baccalaureate degree program in nursing and the master's degree program in nursing at Milwaukee School of Engineering are accredited by the Commission on Collegiate Nursing Education (http://www.ccneaccreditation.org) and have full approval of the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services (http://dsps.wi.gov)

LANSING, Mich. (WILX) -- Firefighters are warning people to not leave plastic water bottles in cars during extreme heat.
They say leaving a plastic bottle of water in a hot car in direct sunlight can start a fire in just minutes.
In order for that to happen, firefighters say the bottle would have to be full.
Then, the water and plastic could create a magnifying effect, which could set the inside of the vehicle or a piece of plastic on fire.
Firefighters suggest putting bottled water in the trunk instead if it has to be kept in the vehicle.

looks good, would like to try this
I cook a lot. This set is awesome. Worth the money you do get what you pay for!
Nice set to own......bought it for an excellent deal last christmas from kohls.....very easy to clean up...and looks elegant too....
Great set, would make a perfect bridal gift, one should always start your cooking career with good pans!!
I got this on sale at Walmart for their Black Friday sale. I paid $85 for the entire set in red. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my Paula Deen cookware! It makes me want to cook more often. It is easy to clean (or so he says), and can be put in the dishwasher, although they really don't need it since the food never sticks to it! I have had friends over and actually showed these off. LOL I love them!
I received the red set of Paula Deen cookware a year ago for Christmas and after using them just about every day, they look practically new! I love cooking with them because the food really doesn't stick to them at all and they are very easy to just hand wash. I've never been more pleased with a set of cookware in my 25+ years of cooking.
I absolutely love my paula deen cookware set. It is beautiful and I love to cook with it. Nothing and I mean nothing will stick to these pans. I have used all of them and they have all been even more than I expected them to be.
I don't have this set but i would love to buy it this year.
I'm getting this set but in BLUE for christmas and im so EXCITED! My old pots and pans dont clean well and well suck, needless to say im psyched about getting these in a few weeks
I actually do not have this set, but would love to have it. I have used them at my moms. They are so easy to clean, even stuck on gravy and such. I also agree that they look great. I love Paula Deen.

"A blog is only as interesting as the interest shown in others." – Lee Odden
I've written a lot about ideas to help you strengthen your blog as well as your website, but it's so important the two work together. It's your strongest marketing tool and it deserves a few more suggestions.
Your website is about what you sell, your specialty and your services, while a really good blog gives you an opportunity to share your heart, be helpful to your readers and supportive of your community. Here's a new batch of tips to consider in establishing an effective blog.
- Continuity: Look for ways to make your blog reflect some of the branding elements of your website. The logo should be the same; stay with the same color theme and look for simple design elements that can be shared on both your website and blog.
- Consistency: If you're not going to post at least twice a week, then my suggestion is to hold off on your blog. You're working to build readerships, followers and feed the search engines with new material. Posting now and then just isn't going to get you the momentum you need. In fact, a client visiting your blog and seeing the newest post was a month ago, might even think you're no longer actively in business.
- Length of Posts: You can find almost any expert to pick any number you want, but for the most part everybody seems to agree that 200-400 words is plenty. (I'm at 300 right here.) You can definitely go longer if you're making a point, using bullets and it's easy to read. Also, remember to always include an image or illustration with every post.
- Stay on Topic: The theme of your blog should be helpful to your target audience, but remember to stay relevant to your readers. You can go off topic now and then, but not until you've established your reputation and brand.
- Build a Stash: Every post doesn't have to be written fresh each time or be related to something you did earlier in the week. With the underlying theme of everything you post "being helpful" it leaves you a lot of room to write your posts in advance. For example, under the umbrella of being helpful, publish tips for better picture-taking, locations in the area great for photographs, a calendar of community events or announcements of fund-raisers you might be involved in and profile features of key people in the community etc.
- Don't Respond to Trolls: Sooner or later you'll get somebody who simply feels entitled to take shots at you, criticize what you wrote about or just plain attack you for taking up space in the universe. The bottom line, is just don't bother to get in the confrontation. Don't take the bait. Trolls hide behind the anonymity of their computer screen and say things they'd never say to your face…so, just hold back the urge to play defense and don't engage them!
A great website and blog work together to build your reputation and a stronger brand. Be helpful and generous with your time and work to build loyalty with your readers.

text: The third entry in Naxos' complete survey of Manuel Blancafort's piano music only reinforces my enthusiasm for this composer's inventive keyboard writing, gorgeous harmonic sense, and heartfelt lyricism. If you like his older, better known colleague Mompou, chances are that you'll adore Blancafort too. He makes Debussy's impressionistic use of pentatonic scales absolutely his own in the four Camins, and gets plenty of emotional mileage from the simplest melodies throughout the four pieces encompassing Cants intims II. While the influence of Catalan folk song permeates the larger-scaled Pastoral en sol, a few strategically placed dissonances keep your ears on guard. Pianist Miquel Villalba upholds the reference standards he's set in Volumes 1 and 2. His warm tone, sensitive ear for nuance, and utterly natural phrase shaping almost are as addictive as the music itself. Happily, Naxos' sound quality offers noticeable improvement over previous installments, and the pianist again offers superb, informative booklet notes.

The bacterium that types in the body of ticks causes Lyme disease. This was how I obtained this disease. Nonetheless, there is a boost in discussion among scientists, regarding whether Lyme disease is genetic or not. Recently, they have located a genetic factor that enhances the possibilities of people suffering from chronic arthritis. This can transform the condition from an almost unnoticeable ailment to a condition that might last for many years. This kind of joint inflammation establishes in just, one in ten individuals amongst whom the disease is untreated. Every one of them has an acquired variable, an element on the surface of the white blood cells. This chronic joint inflammation typically has the very same antibiotics that heal joint inflammation in its first stage. Often, these drugs are inadequate in their persistent stages.
To your surprise, Researchers do not even have knowledge, as to whether person's heart and various other complications have links to acquired factors. They have a company idea that at some point, the hereditary factor might open up new methods for the therapy of lyme disease treatment centers. For instance, people that experience this disease may likewise receive an extensive antibiotic therapy. This study was among the lots of research studies on a significantly troublesome condition. These findings additionally add to one of the most intractable issues that doctors face with the Lyme disease. That is the inability to inform without a doubt, regarding that suffers from the illness and also that does not. The research is one among the lots of researches on the progressively troublesome disorders.
As you currently recognize that, the primary cause of Lyme disease is a bacterium that spreads through tiny ticks. Many individuals who are bitten by the ticks create a tell story breakout. A week or so later, there are high chances that they experience flu like systems. This might also consist of light fever, inflamed lymph glands, despair and also headache. Nonetheless, for most of them, the signs are moderate and in many cases, there is no sign in all. Although most individuals recuperate fully, for others, they emerge years later. Just recently, scientists and researchers have reported these searching are for at Stockholm on the 4th International Meeting on Lyme disease. Scientists are executing even more studies on the nature of the condition. Until that period, it is very important for individuals who experience Lyme disease to have very early treatment and also take on safety nets.
