|Food and Dining
|There was always alot of food. Except after dinner time the only food you could get was pizza. Which was fine but It got old after a while. I would have liked to see more variety in food and the main dinner room but everything that I ordered was good.
|Service and Staff
The staff was okay. We barely saw them. Our TV's were broken for half the trip and whenever we asked a staff member about it they were unable to answer. (even the help area).
Our dinner waitor did not seem to care about the people he was serving as much as he was focused on how many other guests were coming to dine. His eyes where always watching the door.
The activities looked fun but seemed very expensive. We went to Atlantis and It was a let down. It was so beautiful but we were rushed through by a tour guide that seemed annoyed that we just wanted a tour and didnt want to stay.
Parasailing was great! I highly suggest it to anyone brave enough!
The shows were good. Our favorite was the love and marriage game show.
DON'T GET YOUR HAIR BRAIDED AT NASSAU! They steal your money. My daughter got her hair braided at Coco Cay & it looked great and was'nt to much. We talked to someone who got ripped off and was not to pleased.
|Ship Quality
|The ship was very clean.
|Cabin / Stateroom
|I Knew the room would be small so I expected it to be much smaller then it was and it surprised me when it was larger. It was reasonable for 2 people.

McLaren Special Operations a.k.a. company's bespoke division presented today the MSO 12C Concept. Based on the McLaren MP4-12C, the MSP 12C Concept received several features such as a front lip spooler, redesigned hood, a carbon-fiber air scoop found on the roof that channels air into the engine and rear wing vents.
Moreover, the vehicle comes with a unique airbrake, titanium wheel bolts, oil and water filler caps. Inside, McLaren Special Operations received new carbon fiber goodies such as the instrument cluster. New lightweight wheels are also available with a new design. Although there are no details about the engine, we expect to see the same 3.8-liter twin-turbo V8 engine rated at 616 hp.
Using a 7-speed SSG transmission, the standard version of the McLaren MP4-12C hits 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.1 seconds, 200 km/h (124 mph) in 8.8 seconds and 300 km/h (186 mph) in 26.5 seconds. Top speed is limited at 207 mph or 333 km/h.

I'm a total Germanophile so it won't come as any surprise that Alberts Schloss is one of my favourite places for Bavarian grub, lashings of beer and dancing on the tables.
Alberts Schloss is set on the ground floor of the Albert Hall and inside mixes the traditional Alpine-style benches and huge copper tankards with a stylish decor, live shows and bands and a 'Push for Prosecco' button.
As well as German favourites such as Bratwurst, Sauerkraut and Schweinshaxe (pork knuckle), the Schloss is most famous for its huge selection of imported beers and Czech Urquell served from copper barrels. But even if Pilsner isn't your thing, there's also a great choice of wine, cocktails and authentic schnapps made on the premises. I can highly recommend the Apfel Strudel cocktail on a cold day! Look out for some new vegan additions to the menu very soon too!
Unsurprisingly Alberts Schloss is very popular with the locals, so it's always worth trying to book ahead if you want to eat there.

In nature some organisms can pass through the eons relatively unchanged, their designs essentially perfected at the start. The Volvo XC90, the Swedish automaker's three-row, seven-passenger crossover SUV, might seem to possess a similar strength: Volvo has left it largely untouched since its debut for the 2003 model year. But alas, the 2014 Volvo XC90 is no dragonfly or shark.
While there's nothing outlandishly wrong with Volvo's flagship SUV, the seven-passenger luxury crossover segment has been flooded with newer models that offer more powerful and fuel-efficient engines, roomier interiors and the latest cutting-edge comfort, convenience and safety features. Although the Volvo XC90 still feels luxurious on the inside, it comes up short in both passenger room and tech features. Even worse, it does without some of the advanced safety systems offered in other Volvo models — most notably the automaker's collision mitigation system with pedestrian and cyclist detection.
With that perspective in mind, it should come as no surprise that we strongly suggest buyers in the market for a seven-passenger premium-brand crossover take a good look at some of the category's leading contenders. Topping that list is the new 2014 Acura MDX. It's a close match in size, but offers a stronger engine, sharper handling and more of the latest features that buyers expect in a new luxury vehicle. Another fine option is the similarly roomy 2014 Infiniti QX60. It's not as sporty as the Acura, but its quiet ride, plentiful safety features and available hybrid version should make it appealing for families. Other solid choices include the 2014 Buick Enclave and 2014 Ford Flex, both of which boast exceptionally spacious interiors with adult-friendly third-row seats.
Behind the wheel, the 2014 Volvo XC90 offers a level of performance that can best be described as adequate. Almost any competing luxury crossover SUV offers faster acceleration, oftentimes with better fuel economy to boot. The base XC90's suspension is tuned to favor a cozy drive over sharp handling, while the firmer sport-tuned suspension that comes standard on R-Design models makes a noticeable improvement in the XC90's demeanor when driving briskly around turns.
The 2014 Volvo XC90 is a seven-passenger luxury crossover SUV that comes in two trim levels: the 3.2 and the sportier R-Design.
Standard equipment on the 3.2 includes 18-inch alloy wheels, foglights, heated mirrors, a sunroof, roof rails, rear privacy glass, rear parking sensors, dual-zone automatic climate control, leather upholstery, eight-way power front seats, driver memory settings, 40/20/40-split second-row seats with a built-in center child booster seat, a 50/50-split third-row seat, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, Bluetooth phone and sound connectivity and an eight-speaker sound system with a CD player, satellite radio, an auxiliary sound input jack and an iPod/USB sound interface.
Stepping up to the 3.2 R-Design adds 19-inch alloy wheels, sport-tuned suspension and steering, a self-leveling rear suspension, adaptive xenon headlights, distinctive exterior and interior styling details, upgraded leather upholstery, a fold-flat front passenger seat, a universal garage door opener, unique gauges and a sport steering wheel.
Springing for the Premier Plus option package (3.2 models only) gets you most of the R-Design's standard features. The Platinum package includes all of the above plus a navigation system, a rearview camera and a 12-speaker premium surround-sound sound system. The Climate package contains heated front seats and an interior air quality sensor. Stand-alone options include a blind spot warning system, upgraded leather upholstery and a rear-seat entertainment system with dual displays.
The 2014 Volvo XC90 boasts a stylish interior that looks especially sharp done up in the available upgraded leather upholstery and genuine wood trim. While most gauges and controls are well-placed and user-friendly, the optional navigation system has an outdated design that is further hampered by unintuitive controls located on the back of the steering wheel or on a separate remote control. This setup is all the more disappointing compared to the more advanced infotainment systems offered in other Volvo models.
Up front, the driver and passenger accommodations are roomy and comfortable. Second- and third-row passengers will find things a bit more cramped, however, especially compared to the more spacious digs offered by a number of competitors. The standard child booster seat built into the center section of the 40/20/40-split second-row bench (which can be scooted forward to put its occupant within easy reach of parents) is a nice touch, but families with more than one little one should note that Volvo's XC60 and XC70 models offer two of these integrated booster seats.
The XC90 also offers a decent amount of cargo capacity, though here, too, it lags behind a number of competing models. Fold down both rear seats and you get a flat load floor with 85.1 cubic feet of cargo space; the available fold-flat front passenger seat even makes it possible to carry extra-long items with the rear liftgate closed. However, there are just 8.8 cubic feet of space behind the third-row seat, a reality that will make it difficult to carry seven passengers and their luggage without using a rooftop cargo carrier.
The 2014 Volvo XC90's standard safety features include antilock brakes, stability control, front-seat side-impact airbags, full-length side curtain airbags, anti-whiplash front seats and a handy child booster seat built into the center position of the second row. A rearview camera is available via an option package. A blind-spot warning system is also optional, but the multitude of advanced accident-prevention technologies available on other Volvo models are not offered on the XC90.
In Insurance Institute for Highway Safety crash testing, the XC90 earned the organization's top "Good" rating in the moderate-overlap frontal-offset, side-impact, roof strength and head restraints/seats crash tests.
Under the hood of all 2014 Volvo XC90 models is a 3.2-liter inline 6-cylinder engine that puts out 240 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque. A 6-speed automatic with manual shift control is the only transmission offered. Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is available as an option. Properly equipped, the XC90 can haul up to 3,970 pounds.
According to Volvo, the XC90 will go from zero to 60 miles per hour in 8.7 seconds, which is slow for this class. EPA fuel economy estimates are just average for the category at 19 miles per gallon combined (16 miles per gallon city/25 miles per gallon highway) for front-wheel-drive models, and 18/16/23 for all-wheel-drive models.
Upscale and stylish interior; supportive front seats.
The 2014 Volvo XC90 remains a likable seven-passenger luxury crossover SUV, but it's one of the oldest models in its class and feels dated in key areas. We'd steer most consumers toward its more modern rivals, which offer fresher designs, newer features, better performance and higher fuel economy.

June 4, 2014
Excluding transportation, orders rose 0.5% but, excluding defense, orders fell 0.1% at the start of the second quarter. Defense orders rose 39.3% in April, up over 70% in the last 12 months. Capital goods orders rose 3.0% in April. Non-defense orders, however, fell 1.0% in April and capital goods orders, ex-defense, ex-aircraft orders fell 1.2%.
"After yesterday's ISM release – well after the second, adjusted release – it appears manufacturing is still treading water in the second quarter," said Lindsey Piegza, chief economist at the investment firm Sterne Agee. "While far from robust, activity remains positive. Clearly on the aggregate businesses are still hesitant to ramp up spending, but there are pockets of growth helping to maintain expansionary levels of production. For those anticipating 4% GDP in the near term, however, it does not appear that manufacturing is such an impetus to above trend growth."
Meanwhile, shipments of manufactured durable goods were down 0.1% in April following two consecutive monthly increases. Shipments of transportation equipment led the decline, dropping 0.8% after three consecutive monthly increases.
The Commerce Department reported on Tuesday that April Construction spending rose to its highest level since March 2009, led by public construction spending. April saw a 0.2% increase bringing spending to an annualized rate of $953.5 billion.
Spending on private construction was at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $686.5 billion, nearly the same as the revised March estimate of $686.8 billion. Residential construction was at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $378.5 billion, 0.1% above the revised March estimate of $378.3 billion. Nonresidential construction dipped 0.1% below the March estimate to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $308.0 billion.
The estimated seasonally adjusted annual rate of public construction spending was $267.0 billion, up 0.8% from March. Highway construction was at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $81.3 billion, 1.1 percent below the revised March estimate of $82.2 billion.

The PSB Thumb Brace is designed to limit movements away from the index finger which can cause damage to the capsule enclosing the thumb joint. Typically trauma may be caused by a fall, stumble or collision with the excessive force pushing the thumb backwards or sideways causing injury. A common occurrence in skiing and ball sports such as football, rugby, netball and basketball.
The PSB Thumb Brace will increase joint stability at the base of the thumb after ligament damage and the tapes will protect against over extension and further jarring. This support will not inhibit wrist action and will allow full freedom of movement providing a comfortable option to guard against sports injury :
The PSB Thumb Brace is not suitable for tendonitis, tenosynovitis for (De Quervains) or rheumatism.
The measurement should be taken around the middle of the hand. If you are between sizes, please choose the larger size.

Great variety in options for my injured thumb. Playing a lot of sport I think I found the perfect one. Excellent customer service
Reviewed by Ade
Its a good functional product, and I found it didn't hinder my ability to shoot or pass the basketball whilst playing.
The brace could be improved if it was made more durable, as a wheelchair basketball player we get wrist and hand injuries regularly and we use our hands all the time so if the brace was made from stronger material, it would be perfect.

Cheap and efficient filter solution
Sometimes the simplest things work out best. Here is a good example.
For a planted tank, a canister filter is the widely recommended choice. And it is easy to see why. However, there are some disadvantages to canister filters:
Cost - the cheapest ones will still cost >$50 (not talking about a "mini" here), with prices going up to $400+ for the latest Eheim.
Risk - however small, anything that lifts water over the tank rim has a potential of emptying out a large tank in minutes. Hope you are around when that happens. Also, canister filter inlets can be deadly to smallish creatures.
Efficiency - going through the (clogged?) input strainer, the water runs up the tubing, through x elbows, bends, and kinks, into the filter housing, down to the bottom, up through (around?) the various media, further through the impeller housing back into the tubing, up to the rim and out into the tank via spraybars etc. All of this creates friction, turbulences, or just simple blockage, which is made up for by added wattage.
Cleaning - as convenient as they are, cleaning still involves a lot of steps, well you probably know.
CO2 - to use a canister filter for dissolving CO2 gas, an inline reactor is a good solution, still, it needs to be built or bought, and somehow be plumbed into the flow.
So here is an idea which removes these disadvantages, plus offers a great way to dissolve and distribute CO2 without having to construct an inline reactor:
Cost - the pump which I used (AC30) costs between $15 and $20. A big piece of sponge comes in at $5. I cut that in four, the quarter is big enough to filter my 36 gal tank for several weeks:
Risk - no risk. 'nuff said.
Efficiency - here is where the internal filter shines. The AC30 uses 6 or 8 Watts (will check this later) and provides plenty of flow for my 36 gal tank. Compare that to 20 or 30 Watts for the average canister filter.
Also, the filtration is outstanding. The sponge (that's the nature of the beast) fills up very very very evenly. After a few weeks the flow goes down, and it is amazing how much stuff comes out of it! Since we are using a solid piece of foam, that's a lot of capacity even when compared to a large canister filter with "pads".
Cleaning - I have the sponge sitting on top of the pump. I just lift the sponge off, use some sort of dish to catch the dripping water, and off to the sink or (if you clean in tank water) bucket it goes.
CO2 - an airline is connected to the powerhead so the CO2 bubbles are smashed up by the impeller into fine mist, dissolving on its way to the surface. I get more CO2 into the water with this setup than in my 10 gal where CO2 bubbles into the AC Mini. Surface agitation (lack of it) is big part of this, but it also tells me that all the CO2 gets dissolved.
So what are the cons?
- Need to find a pump that doesn't mind sitting upside down. For example, an AC50 got very noisy when running that way. The AC30 I have works great for a couple of months already. Absolutely no noise (I have to look into the tank to make sure it is running). Of course you could put the pump on top of the sponge, but that would make cleaning a little more involved.
- Visual impact - there is some trade-off here... instead of an inlet and an outlet pipe, you have a pump and a sponge sitting in a tank corner. In a corner tank, having it sit in the corner, covered by plants... totally invisible. Depending on your scape, you would need to think about how to hide i. Many obviously don't care about showing some tech stuff so maybe it doesn't bother them. I prefer covering it up with plants.
Can not think of any other disadvantages... what do you think?
That looks good to me. I use a little pump to get water flow in the tank and to run a CO2 mist, but the problem I run into is blockage of the inlet grill by debris, snails and leaves, plus it keeps pulling off the glass where the suction cups are trying to hold it. It ends up spraying the outlet straight down to the substrate.
I like my little Fluval filter, but keeping the inlet tube free of debris and snails so it isn't being blocked has been a problem. This seems to solve all of those problems at one time, plus clearing more space under my tank, and avoiding a failure that would syphon all of the water out.
What filter sponge do you use, and is it at all LFS places? Do you keep washing it and reusing it or is it a disposable thing?
Thanks for the feedback Hoppy. Here is where you can buy that sponge.
It is definitely not the disposable kind. You can use that for years. I have Filstar foampads for 3 years and just recently started to swap them with new ones. (When I wrote: <<filters for several weeks>> I meant: before you need to give it a good squeeze!)
Of course the little pumps with inlet screen will not work for this, you need one that has an inlet which can connect to a piece of pipe.
Wasser, looks like a nice solution to a lot of small tank filter problems, and of course it's scalable for bigger tanks (add another).
I have a bit of a question about the CO2, How many BPS are you running, and are you getting a lot of CO2 mist around the tank?
I think this is even good for bigger tanks. It is easier to hide for sure! The trick is to find a Powerhead that you can turn around. They are made to suck from their bottoms (to be used for UGF's) so in some the impeller will make a racket if you turn them upside down.
BPS is not a real good number to compare to, since it depends on the size of the bubbles my BPS number is really meaningless to you. I run pressurized in 3 tanks, the 100 gets 2 bps, the 36 about 0.5 bps, and the 10 a little less, maybe 0.33333 bps. However, that is done with my DIY bubble counters. All 3 tanks together use about 2 bps using a Milwaukee bubble counter.
So anyway... The powerhead sits in the bottom corner, and blows fine CO2 bubbles towards the front. They raise up slowly to the surface. Thing is, in the morning, when there is no O2 saturation, you don't see much of the bubbles since they dissolve quickly. Later in the day, O2 saturation leads to some gas exchange and the bubbles drift to the surface, presumably as O2.
Like I said, this method works very well for fully dissolving and evenly distributing CO2 throughout the tank.
The filter works:
As I was trying to build a Wasser-Mattenfilter when I ran out of time and tossed the powerhead in upside down with a sponge. It looks like the circular sponge solves the problem of food collecting where the angels can't get to it.
Wasserpest - I recently picked up a foam block with an inlet like this at a going out of business sale. I've been thinking about doing this exact same thing! I doubt I'll actually replace my Eheim, but the extra water movement and added filtration will be a plus!
Of course, an internal filter with a sponge is nothing really new... it's just that sometimes we forget that "simple is beautiful". :icon_wink
The exposed sponge is much easier to clean than the full mattenfilter but it is still visible equipment and does not hide the heater (which the angels lay on) so it is not the ideal solution but it works. I also have a powerhead mounted normal with a sponge in my 20 long. I guess I will have to call it the reverse-Wasserfilter :hihi:
Anyways, the documentation on Wasser-wear is always first rate.
The big advantage over the WasserMattenFilter :hihi: is that you don't have to worry about bypass. Stick the sponge over the strainer, and it is pretty much waterproof :wink:
While it doesn't hide the heater, you can probably squeeze the heater into the corner behind it, and all the water going through the sponge should prevent temp gradients.
Yesterday I bought a Maxijet 600, and a Cascade biosponge, which is big enough to make two sponges for the powerhead. I cut small pieces to plug the hole in the end - the Cascade sponge has a hole down the middle. I poked the CO2 line thru the sponge plug and into the plastic grid thingee that is made for sponge filters and comes with the Maxijet. Today I replaced my Fluval 104 and the minijet pump I was using. So far it works pretty good, but I wonder if the CO2 bubbles are actually sucked back down into the impeller. I'll keep watching it before I decide it is working well. Very nice idea though - no more spraybar, no more filter inlet tube, no more blockage of filter inlet or minijet inlet. And, I have to look hard to see it in the tank.
That's great Hoppy! You should hear if the CO2 thing works by the faint noise of bubbles being smashed to mist in the impeller. I like the audible feedback... Once or twice the silence was an indicator that something didn't work right in my tanks (Plus if there is some serious overdosing I would hear that too!).
Did you route the CO2 line through the sponge? I avoided that because of maintenance concerns, didn't want to have to take the whole apparatus out of the water you clean the sponge.
How does the MaxiJet work when turned on its head? I had a MaxiJet 600 (I think it was a 600) a while ago and I returned it because it vibrated and was very loud. Might have just been the one I got.
My maxijet works great upside down, no noise difference from rightside up. I, too, use the bubble chopping noise to regulate my CO2, and right now I have the bubble rate so high the chopping is almost continuous, but the mist effect is awesome - major pearling for most of the day. The Maxijet has no other way that I could find to introduce the CO2, so I do pass it thru the sponge - down thru the top, where I plugged the hole in the center of the sponge with a piece of sponge. To clean it I just pull off the sponge, with the CO2 line and the sponge support grid. Then I pull out the CO2 line and rinse the sponge, squeezing it a few time to get more of the mulm out. Reinstalling it wasn't a problem. Lately, my cherry shrimp have presented me with many additions to their family, so the sponge tends to be the dining table for them. This has been a great idea for me, and I really appreciate how well you sold it to me!
OK, please don't be mad, but I'm trying to figure out what the difference of this unique filter is compared to most internal filters like a fluval plus or eheim aquaball?
The differences for me are:
It is cheap - under $30,
It provides very good water circulation,
It is a good way to get CO2 mist circulated in the tank,
Maintenance is a breeze,
No worries about plugging up,
It is very effective as a filter.

In North Carolina, an absolute divorce is a no-fault cause of action, and once the statutory requirements are met, a divorce will be granted, the parties do not have to both "agree" to divorce. Even if you represent yourself (pro se), there are court fees associated with your divorce proceeding, it is $225 to file, and then fees associated with service ($30 to have your husband served by the sheriff), and there is a $20 motion for summary judgment fee.

File the divorce and have him served by sheriff or certified mail. After 30 days, set it for hearing and get the divorce. The other lawyer is correct- NC is "no-fault," meaning he doesn't have to agree to the divorce. If you're having difficulty having him served, there are ways around that too. If you don't have money for an attorney, talk to the clerk's about the proper procedure in the family law division at the Cumberland County Clerk's office at the courthouse.

Sorry this chapter too so long. I will try to keep all my stories updated as much as possible.
Ch 6
It had been a week since Veronica's father agreed to the Ireland trip, and he was noticing differences in his little girl. He did want her to grow up and out of her snobbish self, but she would always be his little girl. "Maybe this Brian fellow will help her become less of a brat and more of a woman." He said out loud to himself while smoking a pipe in his den.
Downstairs, he knew Veronica was getting ready for her shopping trip with Kristy. He had given her an amount of money that she could spend. She was not to go over that amount but, come as close to it as she could. They were still trying to watch their finances.
Veronica was on the phone with her best friend. "We have to tell her Kristy. I'll help you. You have to tell your mother that it isn't just me and you going on this trip. She will find out sooner or later. It has to come from us."
Kristy was pacing her bedroom while worrying about what to tell her mother. She lied to go on this trip and now she needed to come clean. There was only a week left until the trip was set to take place. Looking out her window she saw her mother's vehicle pull into the driveway. "Veronica, she's here. I'll see you soon." With that she bounded down the stairs to her mother's side.
The ride to Veronica's was quiet. Kristy wanted to tell her mother, but she didn't want to ruin the shopping trip.
Once they pulled into Veronica's driveway, Kristy unbuckled her belt and waited for the car to slow to a stop. Once stopped, Kristy leaped out and sprinted to the door. Veronica was on the other side and her only chance of help.
They walked side by side and were huddled close together whispering about the situation at hand and the best way to deal with it.
When the two girls entered the car, both in the backseat, Kristy's mother looked over her shoulder and asked, "Why so secretive today, girls?"
Veronica was the first to speak up. "We actually have something we need to discuss with you. I kind of invited my boyfriend and the boyfriends of the other girls along on the trip too. I was just telling Kristy that I know you agreed to let her go, and this may change your mind, but I thought it would be a fun experience for all of us to go as a team since we are part of a team. This happened just two days ago, so its not like we were keeping it from you. You know I consider you to be like a mother to me and I wouldn't want you to be left in the dark about what was going on while we were in a foreign country."
Kristy chimed in, "Mom, please can I still go? I want to see Ireland, and I feel like the others would want us all to be together. Please?"
Kristy's mother pulled into a parking stall at the crowded mall and turned off the vehicle. She turned in her seat and looked at the two girls. "I am not going to let you girls off here and I will go into work for a while. When you are finished, please give me a call. By then I will have an answer for you. Veronica, why you felt the need to invite everyone is beyond me. They will only slow you two down, but like I said, I will give my answer when I pick you up. Behave like ladies, and do not spend too much. You're only going to be away for a little bit, you do not need an entire new wardrobe. Just a few warmer things like coats and pants, and maybe some jewelry. Think lightly, you do not want to travel with a million bags that weigh too much either. Go, enjoy your shopping."
The two best friends exchanged glances and did as they were told. They got out of the vehicle and began walking to the entrance of the mall.
"I can't believe you lied to my mother too." Kristy said to Veronica when they were in the mall.
"I didn't lie. I only stretched the truth, Kristy. She wouldn't let us go if we lied to her. We need to focus on shopping." Veronica knew that she had lied to Kristy's mother and needed to get it off her mind. "Let's check out the coats! I hear they are to die for this time of year." Veronica headed towards the food court to get to the coats she had mentioned earlier.
Veronica and Kristy perused the coats on clearance once they got to the store, only slightly looking through the racks. More focused on whether Kristy's mother was going to let her daughter go to Ireland.
"What about this on?" Kristy held up a light blue coat.
"It looks nice, Kristy. You should try it on." Veronica grabbed a brown and red colored coat and went back to the dressing room with Kristy.
The two girls tried on their selection of coats, praised each other's choices and bought them.
Veronica's phone rang as they walked to the food court to find something to nibble on while shopping.
"Its Scooter." Veronica found a table, sat down and began conversing with her boyfriend.
Kristy rolled her eyes at her best friend and went to grab some drinks.
Kristy stood in line at her favorite snack area and left when she saw Carole, Lisa, and Stevie walk into the mall. She jogged over to the trio and invited them to sit at the table with her and Veronica and even shop while they were still able to.
"Kristy, that sounds…" Stevie started, wary of her new friend's intentions.
"Great!" Lisa finished for her.
"Yes, it sounds fantastic." Stevie smiled at Kristy. "Sorry, guess old habits die hard. So, what first?"
Kristy explained the situation at hand. That they had until her mother got off work, that Veronica and her had a limited budget to shop for their new ensembles, and that they had no idea if she was going to be able to come with them on this trip. "But I so desperately want to."
By this time they had reached Veronica at the square table. She was turned away from them, still talking with Scooter.
"Its Scooter." Kristy confirmed what everyone was thinking.
"Bye." Veronica turned and about jumped out of her seat seeing the company. "My goodness! Hello, everyone. I trust that Kristy has invited you over?" She looked over at Kristy
"Yes." Carole spoke up. "We want to go to the shoe store after this break. We're looking for appropriate shoes for the trip."
"Riding boots just won't do!" Lisa spoke up.
"Veronica, thank you, for inviting us to come along with you. Not just shopping, but to Ireland." Stevie said.
This made Veronica blush, after all, she was not used to such flattery from former enemies. "It's no problem, we're all friends now."
Kristy got up, stretched and headed towards the store directly across from their little table. Turning around she gave them all a questioning look. "Are we shoe shopping, or sitting around all day?"
With a smile, everyone got up and joined her.
Two hours later, the girls were still chattering happily as if they had been friends forever. With a large amount of bags in hand, they walked into the very last store.
This was not a normal store for the mall. It was more than Stevie or Carole could have dreamed of. This store was a formal wear store. One where pricing may be more than a year of monthly allowances saved up.
"Wow." Stevie stepped in and felt like a princess.
"Welcome, Miss DiAngelo. How may I be of help today?" A young lady appeared before them. She was sharply dressed in a black skirt that landed slightly below her knees, a white blouse, with a blue suit jacket. Her shoes were silver flats, and she had her hair pulled into a tight bun at the top of her head.
"Thank you, Mary. My friends and I are just looking today." Veronica motioned to the girls behind her.
"Very well, if you need help with anything, we are more than welcome to assist." With an bow, she was off in a sea of dresses.
"Did she bow to us?" Carole asked.
"Yes, most employees here do. They are to treat us as royalty. Its their motto. Mom once got three free dresses when she was talked down to from one of the ladies. She no longer works here of course." Veronica swiftly moved to a back room where she lay her belongings. She motioned for the girls to do the same.
"This will be the fun part of the day." Kristy bounced up and down with excitement.
"I don't know how I am going to afford another article of clothing!" Lisa cried out laughing.
"Don't worry, most of these dresses are marked down to fit any price range." Kristy explained.
"Wow." Stevie was breathless.
"Its where we shop for prom, weddings, funerals, the lot." Veronica was off with not another word to the group.
"Well, it cant hurt to look." Stevie said with a mischievous grin on her face.
"Why not?" Carole shrugged and followed her out the door.
Lisa trailed shortly behind the two.
"Excuse me, Mary?" Lisa asked.
"Yes?" Mary replied.
"We were looking for maybe a clearance rack, or the lowest price range you have available. Can you point us in that direction?" Lisa shifted her weight feeling uncomfortable and waiting for a laugh as response. None came.
"Of course I can. If you just follow me to the side of the store here…" Her voice was cut off as the three girls followed the maiden.
Stevie found a light blue strapless dress that hugged her and flared out at the knees. There were sparkles on the skirt.
Carole found a purple strapless dress that went to the knees and had a flower on the side.
Lisa grabbed a light green ball gown. It had spaghetti straps and a large skirt that was almost a different shade of green all together.
Looking at each other they laughed. Never would they have thought that they would be in such a place.
The three girls took their selections back to the small room Veronica showed them. There were four dressing rooms in the small room.
"Veronica must come here a lot." Stevie commented.
"Not too often, just when I need a new formal dress." Veronica's response was polite, not snide or cruel like it would have been in the past.
"Why don't you three go first, and Kristy and I can help. Then you three can help us." Veronica suggested.
"Sounds good." Lisa replied and walked into a dressing room.
When the three girls stepped out, Veronica and Kristy were speechless.
"Wow. You guys look so good." Kristy remarked.
"Lisa, you should try on Carole's dress. Purple would look great with your brown hair. And Carole, you should wear green to bring out your eyes." Veronica suggested.
The two girls looked at each other, shrugged and decided to try it.
When in the dressing room, Carole tossed the dress over the top of the stall to Kristy, who took it and gave it to Lisa. Veronica took Lisa's dress and gave it to Carole, offering to help her zip it up.
When Lisa and Carole emerged once more, the girls looked at each other.
"Veronica was right, guys, you look so great!" Stevie had changed from her dress and was waiting to see the girls.
"I like it." Lisa whispered.
"Me too." Carole looked at herself in the mirror. She was enjoying the way the dress made her feel.
Kristy butted in on her admiration. "Guys, I am going to have to hop out. I have to call my mother."
"Please stay and show us your dress." Lisa begged.
"Okay. I guess she can wait a bit more." Kristy put her cell phone back in her purse.
Veronica stepped out of the dressing room with a red strapless dress on. There were black velvet swirls on the bodice and the skirt was accented where it picked up with diamonds.
The girls were breathless.
"Wow Veronica. That is so beautiful." Carole managed.
Kristy stepped out wearing an orange gown, floor length. A diamond of diamonds accented her cleavage.
"I don't know if I like that on you, Kristy." Stevie offered.
"It does look a little bit wrong on you, Kristy." Veronica stopped playing with her hair and looked at her best friend.
"I think you guys are right. It looked so cute on the hanger. But not so cute on me." Kristy turned to go back into the dressing room.
Lisa was the next to speak. "I did see a dress that looked like Stevie's in orange, would you like me to go find it, Kristy?"
Kristy smiled at the thought. "I did like that dress. Yes, that would be great, Lisa. Thank you."
Veronica changed out of her dress and sat Carole and Stevie and waited for Lisa to return.
Lisa came back with the dress and handed it in to Kristy. "Try this one on. It is different, but I figured that you may enjoy it."
Kristy put on the dress and stepped out for the gang to see.
This dress was a darker orange in color. It hugged Kristy closely. It was strapless mermaid design and had a low back. There were crisscrossing straps on the back to keep it together. At the calf, the dress opened to bright orange tulle skirt. The front of the dress had diamonds across the hem and at the waistline.
"I think this is it, Kristy. Its beautiful." Stevie said.
"Agreed!" Carole pitched in.
"I like it, but do you, Kristy?" Veronica asked.
"I do." Kristy faced herself in the mirror and smiled. "It is perfect. Thank you, Lisa!"
The girls purchased their dresses, grabbed their bags and went back to the food court.
Kristy dialed her mother's cell phone number nervously.
"It will be fine. Your mother can't say no to a field trip to a different culture!" Lisa commented.
"Yes she can, and that worries me." Kristy said. "Mom? Hi, we're done shopping. Yes we can be out front waiting. See you soon."
Kristy's mother pulled up in front of the mall shortly after the phone call.
"Bye guys! This was great fun. Let's do it again sometime. Like before riding classes start up again." Kristy suggested.
"Agreed." Veronica said, waving and stepping into the car.
Once they buckled their seatbelts, Kristy prepared for the worst.
"Kristy, who was the boy who kissed you?" her mother asked
"His name is Red. He works at the stables and he helps teach lessons. Max treats him like a son. Why?" Kristy answered.
Veronica looked at her best friend. She recognized the terror and fear on her face. She reached over and took a hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze.
"I was curious. You never mentioned it again after it happened. You also haven't mentioned him. Or that the boys would be going on this trip as well." Kristy's mother looked stern. Her jaw was set solid.
"Mom, I didn't want you to say I couldn't go. I know that the girls are going. Of course Scooter is going, its his house! Stevie is bringing her boyfriend, and I want mine to come too. He is invited after all. I cant control who Scooter invites. He may want guys around while the girls and I swoon over the landscape. I don't know." Kristy practically yelled at her mother and Veronica winced at the harshness of the voice of her best friend.
"So you are dating him, this, Red?"
"Yes, mom. I am." Kristy held her head high and a silent tear fell down her face.
"I don't want any horseplay. I know that when you are young, things seem so great. Things seem fantastic, and you think you are in love. But that is what makes us weak, makes us vulnerable to hurt. While there, please exercise caution."
"Are you saying I can go?" Kristy smiled and squeezed Veronica's hand back.
"I am. Just stay close to the girls, and please, Kristy, please, do not become too involved with this boy." Kristy's mother looked at the two girls in the back seat through the rearview mirror.
Clearly it was an emotional day for everyone.
Veronica stomped through her seemingly large house.
"Something wrong, sweetheart?"
"Daddy, I want to know if Kristy's mother has contacted you." Veronica didn't mean to be ugly to her father, but she was not happy about what happened in the car. This was her best friend, and even though she was allowed to go, somehow the boys had been brought into this.
"But of course sweet. She called me from her office."
Veronica let out a loud sigh of exasperation. She just wanted to have a long talk with her father, but her bed was calling her name.
"Daddy, I stayed in the budget." She smiled, proud of herself, and walked to her room.

Want to Buy a Bike Share System?
"The state government wants a private company to take over Melbourne's blue bike share scheme from mid-2014 and develop it into an integral part of the public transport network," reports Adam Carey.
"Bicycle Network Victoria's Garry Brennan said Melbourne Bike Share was currently too small and sparse and could not be viable without expansion."
"If a sponsor was prepared to boost the size of the scheme and expand it further through inner Melbourne, it could become a permanent fixture and an important addition to the public transport system," Mr Brennan said.

Faculdade de Medicina do ABC, Santo Andre, Brazil
SESSION TITLE: Physiology/PFTs/Rehabilitation Posters
SESSION TYPE: Original Investigation Poster
PRESENTED ON: Wednesday, October 29, 2014 at 01:30 PM - 02:30 PM
PURPOSE: Individuals with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) may exhibit significant reduction in physical performance due to various factors such as dynamic hyperinflation and progressive deconditioning associated with inactivity. A study in the Dead Sea suggested that COPD patients showed improvement in dyspnea and the distance traveled at lower altitudes. Objective: To evaluate the influence of altitude in the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) in patients with moderate to severe COPD
METHODS: We evaluated 29 patients with moderate to severe COPD who underwent a 6MWT in the Pulmonary Rehabilitation clinic in Santo André ( above sea level ) and at the beach in Guaruja ( sea level ), 08 patients performed the test both on the sand uneven floor and on the sidewalk firm ground in order to assess whether there is any change in performance during the test and in the distance during 6MWT in lower altitude (alt=above sea level) data ( heart rate , oxygen saturation , the walk test distance and borg scale) were compared between individuals.
RESULTS: There was no difference in the walking distance above sea level and sea level, and between sand and hard floor (distance of 387.75 ± 5.02 and 375.00 in the sand ± 40.88 on the sidewalk, p = 0.654) and in saturation percentage (in the sand Sat = 95.12 ± 1.80 %, and the sidewalk Sat = 96.87 ± 1.64 %, p = 1, 05, ie, the test was reproducible in both floor. We found a good correlation between lower limb Borg scale and oxygen saturation ( p< 000,1)ie, the lower oxygen saturation, the higher the scale and the same with dyspnea scale Borg.
CONCLUSIONS: 6MWT was reproducible above and at sea level in COPD patients and performed in hard or uneven floor.
CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: Improved quality of life for patients.

I posted a bit ago about an itinerary for a week in and around London. I'm back to ask about my tweaked itinerary and some logistics around London.
I was the poster that was considering staying at a b&b in Kennington and I got reamed for it! I'm back to say that I found a hotel that I hope you will all find suitable for the central sights. I have decided on the Lime Tree Hotel in the Belgravia neighborhood. It is between the Victoria and Sloane Square underground stations.
1) What is the opinion on this hotel?
I was also considering on my previous post of landing and driving to Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, and then onto Bath. I was told by so many that was not the way to start the trip. Driving after an overnight flight would not be the best idea. Here is the new, rough draft, itinerary:
Saturday May 17- Arrive in London; check into hotel; venture out to get our bearings
Sunday May 18- London
Monday May 19- London
Tuesday May 20- London
Wednesday May 21- Get a rental car; Windsor Castle; drive to Winchester
Thursday May 22- Stonehenge, Old Sarum, Wiltshire White Horses
Friday May 23- Bath; overnight at Heathrow hotel for Saturday May 24 flight home
2) What is the opinion on our itinerary?
London logistics:
3) What is the best way to get from Heathrow to the Lime Tree Hotel?
4) Should we get any tickets at home...Tower of London...or not worry about it?

London logistics...help for a first timer!
I posted a bit ago about an itinerary for a week in and around London. I'm back to ask about my tweaked itinerary and some logistics around London.
Report Abuse
Have you booked yet at the Lime Tree Hotel? It seems to be popular, which will tell you something about it, so book ASAP if you haven't yet.
Where will you stay the night of the 22nd? I'd go on to Bath so you'll have time for a leisurely visit before the drive back to Heathrow next day.
Report Abuse
If you get to Old Sarum it is worth visiting Salisbury Cathedral. The best walk is in from The Legacy Rose & Crown and walk in over the meadows.
Report Abuse
On the other thread did anyone mention "the London tool kit" - google it, lots of info!. Look for details on the 2-4-1 deals for the Tower and other sights - you need to buy a tube ticket from a railway station, then you can get the 2-4-1 entries - will save you quite a few pounds.
We took the tube from Heathrow to our hotel. If you can manage it bag wise, it's the cheapest. I studied the map of the system ahead of time to make sure we would not have to deal with alot of stairs.
Report Abuse
I think "reamed" is a bit strong. You were also being what I would call "pig headed"

One more thought - your last night - we stayed at the Swan Hotel in Staines which is super convenient to Heathrow but definately NOT an airport hotel. Lovely old inn on the banks of the Thames - swans a-swimming, lovely path to walk along, you can watch the sculls go by. Very nice patio that looks out on the river. It was like being in the english countryside about 10 minutes from Heathrow. Decent pub grub too. You might want to check it out for your last night.
Report Abuse
I actually did book the Lime Tree Hotel this morning. All they needed was cc info, no payment, so I booked it.
The 22nd we are going to stay in Bath.
I'll check out the London tool kit...thanks!
We will add Salisbury Cathedral to our list!
Report Abuse
www.daysoutguide.co.uk - that's where you get the 2for1 offers. Check it out next APRIL because the offers do change and some places cycle on and off the list (most notably, St. Paul's).
And the Day's Out Guide vouchers have to be presented the day of your admission to the ticket agent, so this means no pre-purchasing covered attractions (Tower, War Rooms, Hampton Ct Palace). The savings can be immense ($32 for the Tower for two people).
Report Abuse
From LHR either the Tube (cheapest, might not want to travel with luggage, depends on you and how much luggage you have, probably an hourish ride?)
OR arrange a car pickup; we used justairports twice very happily (rode the Tube twice too, so I do have some comparison). Find current info on line and make reservations before you go.
For the Tower--I'd just plan to be there 15-20 minutes before it opens; you should not find too long a line then and can go right in. Go directly to the Crown Jewels and see that first before THAT line gets long. Then do rest. (I took my first Yeoman Warder's tour, in my 4 visits there, in June and loved it.)
You will love Salisbury Cathedral, I think.
Report Abuse
Can't you still buy Tower of London tickets at tube stations other than Tower Station? That lets you bypass the line at the entry gate.
Report Abuse
If you visit Salisbury Cathedral, try to do the Tower Tour...amazing!

(The inclusion of an early "Free Bird" does feel rather like banging the nail clean through the floorboards.)

Study Shows How to Get Bottom-Line Results from Internal Communication
Over the years, numerous studies have boasted the connection between internal communication and bottom-line results. These studies, though valuable for establishing a connection, do not delve into the important question of how. How does communication impact the bottom line? Which communication practices add the greatest value? Can communicators do to make their internal communication programs contribute to organizational success?

You should! Whether you're a corporate or a freelance communicator, a style guide and a dictionary are among your most important tools. And all the departments in your company or your client's company should be using the same ones, designated by their communication departments.

Sustainability Reporting: Daring to Hold Yourself Accountable
As the corporate social responsibility movement continues to gain momentum worldwide, corporations need standards and measures to define responsible business practices. One such standard—sustainability—has emerged as the international benchmark for corporate citizenship. Sustainability is defined as the "triple bottom line"—the measure of an organization's economic, environmental and social performance.

Taking the Guesswork Out of Social Media
New opportunities have arisen from the advent of Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites. But professional communicators, in their effort to gain a better understanding of the medium, tend to make social media tools more complex than they really are. As a result, they miss out on the big breaks they need to achieve their goals. Below are tips to take the guesswork out of connecting social media with PR. Hopefully, these are steps you are already taking in your career. But if you are like me and need a friendly reminder, read on.

Talking to the Media—When It's the Last Thing You Want To Do
During difficult times, reporters are about as welcome as a root canal. Of course, you don't have to talk to them. Instead, you can employ what I call "Option Two—Freedom from the Press." I coined the term when I observed a beet-red CEO of a large corporation (after a particularly difficult press conference) mumble, "In this country there is freedom of the press, and it's too bad we don't have freedom from the press." If you choose to employ Option Two, however, you should be prepared to deal with the consequences.

Talking Without Speaking: the Pleasures and Perils of Instant Messaging
Let's face it, the honeymoon between you and your inbox is over. Finished. As spam and e-mail-borne viruses comprise a staggering 70 percent of all e-mail traffic worldwide, it is clear that we are all at our wit's end. As our frustration with unsolicited e-mail has skyrocketed, our attention span for reading legitimate e-mails has plummeted. So what's a conscientious e-communicator to do? As anyone in this business can tell you, silence is not an option. While there currently is no silver bullet to solve the growing e-mail problem, one technology that provides an alternative is instant messaging.

Admit it. Your intranet is a mess. What started out as a great idea for sharing information inside the company has turned into the corporate junk drawer—a jumbled collection of useful, not-so-useful, relevant, irrelevant, redundant, inconsistent and unmanaged stuff. While parts of it make you proud (perhaps the employee directory or news portal), taken as a whole, it just hasn't lived up to all the grand ideas you had when you posted those first few pages.

Targeted Investment: The Key to Employee Portal Improvement
In many organizations, when economic conditions improve, funding becomes available for investment in internal communication technologies.

So what type of focused investments should communicators consider? Intranet and employee portal improvements should be high on the list.

Teaching Spokespeople to Manage Risk
There is a significant risk of being quoted out of context during media interviews. This risk can fall anywhere along a spectrum that ranges from mild to severe. Mild risk occurs when the information included in a media story appears to be less than accurate. If you've ever heard a spokesperson complain that reporters never get it right, you've probably witnessed this type of risk firsthand. Severe risk occurs when a portion of what the spokesperson says is twisted or turned, then included in a story to deliberately fan the flames of a smoldering fire. If this occurs, an organization may need to exercise damage control, and there may be significant risk to its reputation.

They'll Thank You for Sharing: Make Those Reports, Memos and White Papers Clear and Readable

How can you deal with all that? Are there any general writing rules that apply to business writing of all sorts?

This Is NOT Your Father's Online Newsroom
When companies first put their corporate and marketing information on the web in the mid to late '90s, it was mostly static content that was painful for journalists to use (horrible navigation, tough to download text and little or no images available). It's lucky for the corporate world that it took time for journalists to warm up to the web. Since we all know how gifted the PR community is in math, science and computers, it was no surprise that the company's online publicity destiny was left in the hands of its IT staff—which was about as familiar with PR as PR is with the latest software patches that somehow magically appear on our desktops. You need a more effective news and information web site, but what will it include and how will you show the ROI to secure the necessary investment?

Tips for Getting to Know Your Audience
Effective communication requires understanding the target population and how it operates.

When I asked them what they would do if two different clients needed something at the same time, they looked a bit stunned.

I often reference rocking out to dirty rap songs in the 'burbs in my mom's minivan. The reason that the musical stylings of Pitbull and Ludacris are coming from such a ridiculous vehicle is because I don't have a car. It seems crazy to people who live in the Midwest/'burbs, because, like I said Wednesday, we loooooove driving everywhere.
When I moved to NYC in 2008, we sold my black Jeep Cherokee (oh Frank…I loved that car!). It made sense, but meant when I moved back to Michigan last summer, I was carless. On most days, this wasn't a huge problem. Sometimes it was more of a hassle, but we always worked it out. And yes, driving around in a minivan cramped my style, but I think cars are sort of a necessary evil. Given the choice, I would rather spend my money elsewhere, so buying a car was not priority. Besides, I wasn't in any position to buy a car. I've spent the past year going from struggling writer/fitness/social media chick to…slightly less struggling writer/fitness/social media chick. And that, my friends, is not an occupation you can put on a car lease application.
Now if you want to talk about cramping one's style, living at home is worse than not having a car. I'm so grateful that I could come home and live rent-free and write a book, and in terms of sacrifices for a career, it's way better than working at a job that causes me to have panic attacks every time my Blackberry goes off. But I'm coming up on a year of living at home and I'm starting to get a little itchy and ready to move. When your roommates are a five-year-old boy, your mom, and your grandma and they live a very different lifestyle than you do…yeah. It's been a challenge.
The problem has been that I can't move out without a car. And aside from needing a good "real job" to get a car, the whole idea of moving out was sending me into quarter-life crisis mode so I've just been avoiding it. No longer on a career path that ties me to a certain city, I can go anywhere. And sometimes, having options is the most overwhelming feeling. (Hello, how I felt in the toothpaste aisle this morning?!) So when trying to pick a location, it brought up all those big questions of career, money, relationships, and the meaning of life, I suppose, and no matter how much I thought about it, the end result was just…a whole lot of uncertainty. And while I don't think there's anything wrong with a periodic quarter-life crisis (we all have them — recent grads, get ready!!) the problem with my current one was that it was making me freeze. So I was using "I don't have a car" as a way of avoiding saying, "I don't really know what to do next."
Long story short, I finally stopped being such a puttytat this week because I remembered that you never really know what to do next. And once I accepted that, it was easier for me to accept a car loan from the Bank of Generous Grandma.
Now, given the fact that I'm still a struggling writer/fitness/social media chick who sees cars as a necessary evil, my options were limited. But after a busy week of test drives and trips to the mechanic, I found one!
Meet Judy.
I love it, but when my mom called me from the dealership, her exact words were, "Well there's a hideous Blazer here you could look at." Now, "hideous" is not the right word. But it seems that when the previous owner ("Judy," according to some paperwork we found) bought the car in 1995, she decided to pimp it out. And that meant adding running boards (!?!), the turquoise squiggle, and custom wood on the interior.
Um, what?! Yes, OK, a little hideous. It just doesn't add up. And I can do ghettofabulous; I wasn't so sure if I could do what sort of seemed to me like Trailer Park Chic. I imagine Judy has really big hair and acrylic nails and bedazzles everything. Like maybe I should be wearing this??
I don't really care. The point is that even acid-washed denim fits my personality more than a minivan does. (My mom wants me to bedazzle "SHEDDINGIT.COM" on the rear window; I'm not sure if that car is something I want to really associate with the image of my blog…) The first thing I did was get an ipod adapter for the tape deck (YUP) and just celebrate that I had something with wheels to call my own.
And that leads me to the next important point…
I'm moving out of my house and moving in with Leah in Ann Arbor!
Now just FYI, Leah and I met through blogging. I had just started reading health blogs and Nutritionista was the first one that I didn't hate (uhh…sorry, but it's true; I had only read a small pool of blogs at this point) and after I literally went back and read every single one of her posts, I was like, "I think this girl is from Michigan!" so I e-mailed her to say I liked her blog and that I was excited to see another Midwest blogger. We started e-mailing and eventually the love-fest began! We ran the Detroit halfsie together…
And we have gotten really close in the past few months as we worked on the Outside the Box Challenge and Hollaback! We pretty much talk every five minutes now.
Leah's been selling me on Ann Arbor for a while and I once I finally stopped seizing up with quarter-life fear, I was sold! I'm moving in July, when the most delicious, nutritious, fit existence ever will begin. Because we love so many of the same things, now we can pool our resources! That means…
- So much good food. Lots of local stuff. So much bacon and butter. A foodgasm a day, really.
- The ballerest home gym.
- The most pimped-out kitchen.
- Constant motivation to try new classes, restaurants, and cooking methods.
- We will be going to see more comedy shows and I will be doing more stand-up.
- Nightly blogging time and discussions on how to improve our blogs!
- The feast will take place regularly.
As much as I love my independence, I'm really pumped to have a roommate again! I'm also excited that in a bigger city, I can really take advantage of all the wonderful things our lovely state of Michigan has to offer…because there are many! Ann Arbor has a lot of culture, and it's pretty crunchy, which is what I've been missing. So we are kinda proud to be young, passionate, ambitious people who are actually choosing to stay here. It's an exciting feeling!
So yeah…when you see a baller Blazer roll into Whole Foods this summer blasting "Pimp Juice"…you'll know who it is!
