From fashion to jewelry, Art Deco is currently the leading style inspiration. "And come this spring and summer, it will get stronger, then even bigger by fall/winter 2013," says Ellen Sideri, CEO of ESP Trendlab in New York City, which tracks fashion trends and cultural patterns. Interestingly, the real excitement isn't about original vintage jewelry and fashion, but rather contemporary styles inspired by that roarin' era of the 1920s and '30s. It's more "Deco redefined." Each in its own signature style, luxury brands are creating modern collections based on design elements that defined the Deco movement: streamlined shapes, a strong color palette, graphic patterns, geometric stone cuts, linear symmetry, elongated silhouettes and ancient Egyptian and Aztec forms.
Before we tell you what you should look for and how to wear it, let's explore the big question of why Deco, why now? What brought on jewelry's obsession with the brilliance of the Jazz Age? In spring 2013, The Great Gatsby remake hits theatres and, with A-lister Leonardo DiCaprio starring as Jay Gatsby, Art Deco designs will be very much in the spotlight.
Added to that, in both ready-to-wear and couture for 2012/2013, Art Deco references ruled the runways. Sideri notes, "We're seeing lots of beads, feathers, and embroidery—but elegant and luxurious—with one designer after another using the 1920s (and the 1910s) as their muse." For his fall/winter haute couture collection, Jean Paul Gaultier has embraced the period in a big way, with highly graphic gold metal cage designs pieced into dresses and jackets, as well as softer glam flapper looks. And Alexander McQueen's 2013 resort collection spectacularly marries Art Deco with inspirations from the linear work of the legendary Gustav Klimt.
Amanda Gizzi, director of communications for the Jewelry Information Center in New York, explains: "As our country has been coming out of difficult economic times, more and more customers are asking for jewelry that isn't cookie-cutter. And these modern pieces, which are influenced by Deco but a bit edgier, are perfectly suited to what they want."
THE "NEW DECO" LOOK: To do New Deco, there are a few jewelry items you want on your wish list:
TASSEL EARRINGS AND PENDANTS: Swinging tassel earrings and pendants were the perfect complements to high-hemline dresses, and today you'll find lots of colorful versions in whatever gemstone you like.
ROPES OF PEARLS: If you already have a strand of opera-length pearls, think Clara Bow or Daisy Buchanan and drape them on! Then be sure to get another long rope of pearls to layer in; finish the look by knotting that second strand. The knotted pearl necklace is back!
DANGLY COLORED-GEM DROPS: "Deco earrings are always very desirable at auction," says Ann Lange, senior vice president and director of jewelry for the prestigious auction house Doyle New York. "The linear hanging kind, because they're simple yet they have strong design."
DIAMOND CASCADE EARRINGS: In the '20s and '30s, women often donned earrings made of cascading diamonds to add femininity to their newly in vogue short bobbed haircuts. Back then, diamond chandeliers (as they're now known) replaced ear clips, hair combs and hat pins.
BIG GEOMETRIC RINGS: Rings were large and rectangular, and women often wore several on one hand. For evening, oversized emeralds and rubies played a strong role, in white or yellow metal. Contemporary Deco jewelry gives you lots of price options, with many brands even making Deco-style uber-rings with sterling silver and natural gemstones.
BANGLES AND BRACELETS: When women started wearing sleeveless styles, bracelets became an important accessory. Bangles were clustered on their wrists or higher on the upper arms. As for flexible gemstone bracelets, Lange says, "Deco diamond bracelets are also very desirable at our auctions; the workmanship was exceptional."
DECO-THEME PIECES: If you're someone who likes to wear symbolic jewelry, there's a lot of New Deco pieces inspired by the iconography of the '20s and '30s, skyscrapers like the Eiffel Tower and the Chrysler Building á la the era's unique architectural movement. Or choose something unique with carvings or silhouettes of pyramids, obelisks, palm fronds and lotus flowers—motifs that often appeared in period pieces, influenced by the 1922 discovery of King Tut's tomb.
With the exception of tiny beads used for tassels, reminiscent of renowned Deco jewelers like Jean Fouquet, the geometric bent of Art Deco jewelry design is typically achieved by incorporating angular stones, especially emerald cuts. "In our Important Estate Jewelry auctions, the top three diamond cuts in original Art Deco are emerald, Asscher and cushion," says Lange. "Emerald cuts are forever classics, and I'm seeing a lot of interest in contemporary jewelry with cushion cuts." Step-cut shapes like trapezoids and half-moons are often seen as side stones in Deco designs, so this year and going forward, you'll see them in the New Deco collections, too. Actress Sofia Vergara's engagement ring, for example, features a cushion-cut center stone with a trapezoid diamond on either side.
COLORS: Deco jewelry tends to rely on bold gemstone colors, in contrast to the austerity of the Edwardian period that preceded the Roaring '20s. The most notable shades are black, green, red and blue, plus white, which, if done in enamel, for example, can impart a distinctive boldness.
Black: Onyx was perhaps the most widely used black gemstone during the 1920s and '30s, so some New Deco pieces incorporate it, too. But they more often feature black diamonds, black sapphires and black opals.
Green: "Carved jade was [used] in a lot of vintage Deco," notes Lange, so modern jewelry artisans are favoring this green variety as well. But emeralds and agates are two other green favorites. This year, in fact, emeralds are so hot in fashion that it may even be difficult for May born women (whose birthstone is emerald) to get their hands on it!
Red: Rubies, ruby-red enamels and deep red corals top the list of must-have New Deco reds, but especially ruby, as Lange notes, "because there were a lot of Burma rubies in original Art Deco jewelry."
Gizzi adds, "Since this movement started to grow, I've seen a lot more dark-red corals in jewelry—something I hadn't seen in a long time."
Blue: Look for primary-color blue gems, like lapis-lazuli and sapphire, but also cobalt blue alternative materials like enamel, resin and ceramic. A wealth of lapis jewelry was found in King Tut's tomb, a key reason the blue gem became an important influence on jewelry of the period.
White: Rock crystal, white pearls and white diamonds top New Deco's white stone list. "Certainly, rock crystal was used a lot in Art
Deco—it was very prized then and it is now, too," says Lange. "There were also lots of natural pearls back then." Consider, too, some of the New Deco pieces that mix black Tahitian pearls with white metal, as the black-and-white color scheme was a key color combination then and now.

"Of all the liars in the world, sometimes the worst are our own fears."
- Rudyard Kipling
Sometimes you see hints of it so you know it's there but most of the time I work super hard to work THROUGH it and maybe even dissect it a little here and there to make it more beneficial and meaningful.
I know the working title of this post is a bit wordy but I wanted to share bits and pieces of all of those things with you because I've come to realize that if it's something I'm dealing with, chances are there are more than a few handfuls of others out there dealing with it. Not to say that I have all the answers, but I want to give you my special form of Cliff Notes on how to deal with the hard stuff.
A year ago or so I had a fall with our horse Fred. We were trotting along and she tripped. She kept tripping and didn't seem to be able to recover and all of a sudden I realized we were going down. She landed on my leg and my other foot got stuck in the stirrup leaving me hanging upside down for about 5 minutes. She was such a good girl and just stood there while I dangled trying to free my foot as no one was around to help me.
I ended up going to the ER and she ended up with a vet visit to check out all the things that were sore and after all the x-rays (hers and mine) it was determined that she was not going to be rideable with the arthritis that was now obviously keeping her from flexing her knees completely causing her to trip. For the past year now I've gone over to see her at least twice a week to brush her, clean her stall, and hang out with her but I miss riding/driving.
Fear is not something that I think I struggle with too often because it doesn't always come in the format of running and screaming through a haunted house or jumping because I saw a spider. It comes in quietly and suddenly and with some sort of wake-up call. Recently I started gifting my Self riding lessons each week. I've had all of two at the writing of this blog but being in a barn with other horse lovers and doing something that feels so natural to me has been so so so good (did I mention how so good it's been?)
The first week left me really really sore and woke up some muscles I had totally ignored for the last year since my fall with Fred. During my second lesson the horse I rode first spooked at something invisible at the end of the arena and I rode it out...he went one way and I stuck like a little barnacle on his back and went the same direction. I was really aware of my ability to stay balanced and seated and felt really good about that. We switched directions and then he was limping so I had to switch horses.
We were halfway through our lesson when the horse tripped slightly, trotted a few steps and tripped slightly again. Suddenly my heart stopped and everything from my fall came rushing back into my body and I grabbed my heart and found my Self fighting back tears. My instructor said, "Uh oh, what happened?!" I told her with a shaking voice of my experience and how surprised I was to be so rattled and even apologized (which immediately after I did I wondered what I had to be sorry about).
"What you gonna do about that?"
I was determined not to let this stop me from riding and enjoying this experience so I pulled my Self together and started off at a trot again and I'm sure my face was all Supergirl Serious! I focused on what I was doing and then we cantered both directions and all was good in my world again.
Anyway....some experiences never leave our bodies. But, it's what we DO with them that counts.
We can fear rejection because of past experiences of being left out or set aside. We can fear intersections because of past accidents that sent us to the hospital. We can fear being in crowds of people because we are sensitive empaths and it's overwhelming to our senses on many levels.
Me? I'm just determined to keep putting my Self out there for the opportunity NOT to be rejected, to make it through that intersection safely, and to dive deep into those crowds and meet new friends.
What fears do YOU have and as my littlest Great Niece who is all of 2 years old likes to ask, "What you gonna do about that?!"

Sidewalk Chalk: Enemy of the State
looking up while looking down
You know it's springtime when the sidewalks and driveways of America have been doodled on, drawn on, hopscotched, and John Hancocked with every imaginable pastel color of sidewalk chalk. These kids — Van Goghs, Gilbert Stuarts, and Salvadore Dalis, they are — probably don't even realize that they are subverting the very state that mandates they sit behind desks for eight hours a day, "learning." The state tells them they can do anything in the world!, but the kids surely don't believe it when they're chained to an uncomfortable chair and told to shut up. So they keep quiet and wait for it all to end.
Don't worry, kids. It ends eventually, and the revolution begins. Trade those pencils and worksheets for some sidewalk chalk and a concrete canvas — now, anything is possible. What can be created will be. Today I toured the Raymond Sidewalk Art Gallery and admired many works: flowers, birds, peace signs, the written expression "Whoop Whoop," and even a few scrawled names (defiant declarations of ego, how dare they!).
Liberty is alive and well and all you have to do is look down.
art is dangerous
"Art is dangerous," writes the journalist John Rappoport. "[I]magination…throws caution to the winds. It invents realities that engender new reactions, never before experienced. It blows apart old rigid perceptions."
But more importantly, he writes, it pisses off statists. "Those who run things — and their willing dupes — want reality to look a certain way and be experienced and felt in certain ways. These limited spectra form a shared lowest common denominator." One can "experience" this mundane white-walled evil waste of humanity's time, filled with the sad-sack lowest common denominator collective, at any government institution: a public school, the line at the DMV, or, hell, even on public access television.[Quick aside: I did have a few teachers in high school who encouraged creativity and free-thinking much more than they probably were expected to. One teacher was infamous for never taking down any drawings students had made for various assignments. The room was an art museum — and the most free-speech zone in the entire building, as well.]
Rappoport gives us hope: "[I]ndividual creative power launches from a platform of freedom and rises through layer after layer of greater freedom."
I spent some time observing the kids as they drew those peace signs and the "Whoop Whoop." (Is it a raging dance party "Whoop Whoop" or the native americans' revolting against their new oppressors war cry? I can't help but hope it's both…)
I smiled at the exuberant spirit of life each one exuded. Jumping off stairwells; hopping railings; racing across the common like the unleashed wildlife they are; vandalizing government "property" with tiny pink and blue weapons. Public school attempts to kill that spirit — all the better to control them and to profit from them down the road: thoughtless, complacent workers.
If it takes more sidewalk chalk to smash the state, then let me be first to donate all the sidewalk chalk I can afford to the young, wily anarchists out there.
allow us to live liberty
Not only does the act of creating make individuals more free, but the positive externality that art bestows on others is just as powerful.
Wendy McElroy writes in the introduction to Young Pioneers on the need for art — in this specific example, the novel: "Theory and history are essential to an understanding of individual liberty but novels allow us to live liberty through the eyes and actions of characters who touch our emotions as well as our minds."
In all of my days as a young libertarian, I have hardly harbored a single soul from its attachment to government's tide by arguing the hard facts. I'm learning, however, that through pictures and words, poetry and prose, the reactions favorable to liberty are stronger, more potent, and everlasting.
Why is that? Well, as McElroy points out, the novel (and, I think, any form of art) can become more real than life itself. It becomes a "valued companion." Once it's personal, it's life changing.
But, hey, as I took photos of sidewalk chalk peace signs under the blowing American flag, I got a few odd looks. I just laughed and jumped off the stairwell and hopped over the railing. I almost ran, but that camera is fragile. It isn't a toy! Kids play with toys.
layer after layer of greater freedom!
TAC blogger Rod Dreher has decided to share art with his young children. It might sound like heavy bedtime reading, but his kids were happily subjected to Dante's Inferno, and later, The Law of God. His daughter decided to create some art, herself: she draws what she imagines from the readings.
You can follow the link and forage his blogs about Dante for adorable drawings on topics that most adults have never heard of, but first read Dreher's observation of his doodling, young daughter. I will let you make your own conclusion about the power of art, imagination, and liberty: "She does this every time I read a chapter of the catechism to them. I hadn't thought about it till tonight, but the fact that she's drawing out an interpretation of [what] I'm teaching them shows that she really is taking it into her imagination, and learning it."
Take to the streets, you young radicals.

Sephadex G-25 fractions of chick embryo extract affect the differentiation of cloned embryonic pigmented epithelial cells (PE) in culture. Both tyrosinase activity and amounts of melanin are markedly affected by the extract fractions. 5-Hydroxyindole decreased melanin accumulation in PE cells while alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine had no apparent effect on the process. Melanin disposal as well as biosynthesis may be important in controlling the accumulation of pigment in PE cells under culture conditions. Triiodothyronine greatly increased visible pigmentation and affected the morphology of cultured PE cells.

Senior leader of Pakistan Muslim League-Q (PML-Q) Chaudhry Parvez Elahi said all minorities have complete constitutional rights over Pakistan and we did innovative work during our term for Christians, Hindus and Sikhs.
"We will not allow the government to snatch away land, plots and houses we had given to the minorities," he said while addressing a largely attended PML-Q Minorities Wing Workers Convention at the Muslim League House on Saturday.
He said we had protected the rights of the minorities according to Islamic ideology and sayings of Founder of Pakistan Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah and took steps including dual-vote right, educational stipends and special quotas for minorities children, return and upgrading of 45 educational institutions including F.C. College, distribution of special funds for building and repairs of gurdwaras, churches and temples, establishment Nankana Sahib model city, quota in jobs, distribution of agricultural land and residential plots in Clarkabad and other areas with proprietary rights, and also setting of Christian model villages for their betterment for the first time in 60 years.
The PMLQ senior leader said the minorities always played quite appreciable role in progress and prosperity and maintenance of law and order.
He said besides the minorities, conveniences we had provided to the poor and common persons were being finished instead of carrying these further on; roads constructed during our tenure were not being repaired and rehabilitated; 1122 vehicles are not being replaced; they forget the voters after securing their votes.

Drowsy driving plays a role in nearly eight times as many accidents as federal estimates suggest, according to a study released Thursday.
Using in-vehicle camera footage of thousands of drivers who had agreed to participate in the study, the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety concluded that motorists are falling asleep at the wheel at alarming rates.
The AAA study examined more than 700 crashes, analyzing three minutes of video of drivers' faces leading up to the accidents. They used a scientific gauge to determine whether the driver was sleepy.
In about 9.5 percent of crashes, drowsiness was a factor. And it was a key factor in 10.8 percent of accidents that caused serious property damage.
The finding differs with the result of investigations by federal researchers, who believe sleepiness is a cause in a far smaller percentage of crashes in the U.S.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) had reported in 2017 that driver drowsiness was involved in 1.4 percent of all police-reported crashes, 2 percent of crashes resulting in injuries and 2.4 percent that resulted in death from 2011 to 2015.
The primary reason for the disparity between government statistics and the AAA is study is likely that it's extremely difficult for law enforcement officials to determine when drowsiness was a factor unless the driver admits it.
Given the percentages, drowsy driving may have accounted for several thousand of the more than 37,000 American roadway deaths in 2016, said William Horrey, group leader of the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety's Traffic Research Group. That's the latest year for which figures are available.
The AAA Foundation recommends sleeping at least seven hours a night before driving.
But about 35 percent of U.S. drivers sleep less than that, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Getting just four or five hours can more than quadruple the risk of an accident, according to AAA.
"Really the only effective countermeasure for drowsiness is sleep, so we want to encourage people to really try to prioritize and allocate enough time to get a good night's rest," Horrey said.
You know you shouldn't be behind the wheel if you're having trouble keeping your eyes open, drifting from your lane or having difficulty recalling the last several miles.
Slapping yourself to stay awake? That won't work. Neither will drinking caffeine or rolling down the windows.
Those are temporary measures that fade fast, experts said.
In addition to getting enough sleep, it's best to avoid driving at times you'd normally be sleeping. And drivers should certainly avoid medications that cause drowsiness. They should also schedule breaks.
A short nap at a rest stop can make a big difference.
"We really don't want to be relying on our bodies to tell us that we're fatigued," Horrey said. "We really want to be aware and avoid it in the first place."
Warne said another good step is to turn off digital devices at least an hour before bed to ensure a good night's rest.
She said the federal government needs to take drowsy driving more seriously by investing heavily in public education.
The AAA report was based on footage from the federally funded Second Strategic Highway Research Program's Naturalistic Driving Study, which involved monitoring 3,593 drivers from six locations for several months.

The Texas Historical Association has so much to say about the history of Fayette County, Texas and we claim bragging rights to a few historical places to discover. While you're taking it all in, there are wine bars, steak places, cozy coffee nooks and friendly owners welcoming you along the way.
Picture the perfect day: history, shopping, music and dining
Throughout downtown Flatonia, there are loads of commercial block buildings constructed of locally sourced stone or brick, mostly erected during the late 19th century and early 20th century. They illustrate Flatonia's primary periods of development and reflect the commercial architecture trends of the area. A lot of these have been converted into stores offering unique shopping finds.
The historical collection, the barn and the Texas Natives Garden in the E. A. Arnim Archives and Museum on E. North Main in town are incomparable to anything else in this county if you're seeking out a fascinating, realistic view of another time. Judy Pate, the machine behind the museum, helped kick off this blog with her historical expertise. Less than a mile away are the Wine Haus, Robert's Steakhouse and a wonderful old bar called HenryK's . Picture this day: View the historical architecture of the period, shop, take in all the museum has to offer and grab a glass of wine, dinner and live music. Yep.
Oldest settlement, must-see's, a jail and a farmers market
The Nathaniel W Faison House on S. Jefferson in La Grange is one of the oldest in Fayette County, with the original furnishings of the wealthy Faison family, whose members occupied the home for nearly 90 years. Relatively unaltered since its construction in the mid-19th century, it was the home of one of the earliest settlers of the area, Nathaniel W. Faison (1817-1870), a military hero, land baron, and benefactor of the African American community after emancipation.
It's one of the first few residences in Texas to be solely owned by an African-American freedwoman, Louisiana Brown (1819-?), to whom Faison deeded the home in 1870.
Two lucky newlyweds, William, Jr. and Augusta Hermes, moved into the Hermes House in La Grange in 1892, after receiving it as a wedding gift from William's father, Dr. William A. Hermes. It's a must-see Folk Victorian-style residence and the site also includes a gazebo, an outhouse, buggy house, garage, servant quarters, smokehouse, barns and a chicken house.
The Fayette Heritage Museum and Archives has performed intense research into the Historic buildings in downtown La Grange, including the wonderful Fayette County Courthouse right in the middle of the square, the Fayette County Jail and many more. We took the tour at the courthouse and it was the bomb. And on Saturday mornings, a very "country" kind of farmers market (small, but fresh-from-the-ground produce) is open right outside the courthouse. Buy your fresh tomatoes and squash and grab a cuppa and goodies at Big State Coffee Roastery, just around the corner on W Colorado. It's across the street from the Texas Quilt Museum.
And right now, on the second floor of the La Grange library, there's an in-depth display on the Yellow Fever epidemic in 1867. The staff is a wealth of information on many of the historical buildings in this county.
Preserving the past, events worth checking out and special thanks goes to…..
The goal of The Schulenburg Historical Museum is to "Preserve the Past for the Future." They do a great job. The museum is free and open on Fridays and Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Private tours can be arranged with prior notification . About eight minutes from Schulenburg is the Simon Pylovany House on Farm Road 1383. The Simon Pytlovany House in Dubina is on Farm Road 1383, about eight minutes from Schulenburg. It's a unique example of foreign stylistic expressionism and closely follows the pattern of the Ukrainian "izba." It's another unique site to explore.
You'll notice lots of careful restoration of old buildings in Henkel Square in Round Top. And you can shop and eat and go all day without leaving the square. Just down from Round Top on FM 2714 is the fabulous Winedale Historical Center that hosts a number of events throughout the year really worth seeking out. Winedale is the legacy of Houston philanthropist Miss Ima Hogg. It's a complex of nineteenth-century structures and modern facilities situated on 225 acres.
During holiday season, the majority of the small local towns around here offer holiday home tours. Check out the Chambers of Commerce for La Grange, Fayetteville, Round Top, Schulenburgand Carmine to discover more and you can always keep checking on our website. We talked about the Country Christmas Home Tour in our December blog and there will new updates next month.
Fayette County History TXGenWeb project is devoted exclusively to history and Genealogy. Ann would love to help you. The Fayette County Historic Commission is one of the very best resources for historical information throughout the county. You can email the officers directly from the website, which is rare in these parts. And we have to say, that without Bobbie Nash, Chair of this wonderful organization, and Gesine Koether, this blog wouldn't have ever launched.
As long as we're admiring the historical wonders of Fayette County, you must come to the 19th Annual Christmas Tour of Homes and Historical places in Round Top on December 2nd at 11:00 a.m. Christmas in the Country at Zapp Hall takes place in Uptown Warrenton, December 1st – 3rd. The Round Top Christmas parade on Saturday, December 2nd features street dancing and chicken n' dumplings! Check out our Events calendar for so much more and we'll be on top of all of it in our December blog so look for it.
In addition to our website, we have all kinds of historical happenings on our Facebook page. Follow us for local goings-on, places to feast and resources for a very special weekend away from the crazy city life.

Why Convert AVI to iPhone?
As is known to all, iPhone is one of the most popular smartphones, designed and marketed by Apple Inc. It combines the functions of camera phone, portable media player, and Internet client-using the phone's multi-touch screen to provide a virtual keyboard in lieu of a physical keyboard. Apple announced the first iPhone on January 9, 2007, after months of rumors and speculation. Time magazine named it the Invention of the Year in 2007.

The Newport Independent Schools will continue its award-winning annual tradition of teachers and staff spreading out across the city to meet with students and parents in their homes during Home Visit Day on Tuesday (Aug. 7).
Home Visit Day will be conducted from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The visits are an opportunity for students to meet and get to know the teachers they will have during the 2018-19 school year, which begins Aug. 15.
Lunch will be served by event sponsor Pompilio's Italian Restaurant, the legendary Newport restaurant that is owned and operated by Newport High School alumni Larry Geiger and Joe Bristow.
Newport is one of the few school districts in the nation to take the innovative step of visiting students at their homes before the start of the school year.
Earlier this year, The Kentucky School Boards Association honored the Home Visit Program by giving the 2018 Public Education Achieves in Kentucky (PEAK) Award to the Newport Independent Schools.
"Home Visit Day is great for not just the students, but also the teachers," said Newport Independent School District Superintendent Kelly Middleton.
"Teachers not only get a chance to meet and talk to their students, but they also have a unique and valuable opportunity to experience the kids not just in their homes, but on the porch, or even under a tree in the front yard. Many of the parents like to meet outside. And our teachers always come back from Home Visit Day with more empathy for their students."

I don't know why but as women we do tend to be worriers. We worry about our family and friends, problems in the world and problems which may or may not occur, we often worry about the future and regularly about the past yet maybe all we should do is
deal with the reality of here and now.Безопасные SEO эксперименты
Learn to live in the moment. Cherish what we have as we don't know what is likely to happen next week let alone next month or next year. As a business mentor I am all for planning. It is important to have business targets, professional aims and personal goals. It helps us to keep traveling in the right direction. Sometimes things happen which mean we have to alter our plans but this is normal and in fact healthy to do. Reviewing our journey so far and our future traveling plans will keep us motivated and focused.
As a coach to women in business, a mum, wife, daughter and sister I know that some things happen which we didn't plan for. Sometimes they are good things and sometimes they are things which make us sad. But if we live life then its fairly likely that "stuff" will happen to us good and bad. It may distract us from our plans and send us veering off course but how we deal with that "stuff" can really make us stand apart.
Some people seem to be able to handle problems and difficulties and move on accepting that they are part of life and there is little that can be done about the past other than to learn from it and get on with living. But others seem to get stuck, reviewing, reliving and beating themselves up for something that happened.
Take stock of your reality is it possible to accept things and move on, concentrate on the future and stop living in the past?

They have used this experience by establishing their own company in which they combine the skills of designers and producers. Their designs are characterized by elegance and modernity. Often referred to as modernist or minimalist, they are above all extremely pragmatic. The main inspiration for the duo is the process of industrial production itself, its efficiency, liquidity, optimization while maintaining the highest quality of the product being implemented.

Alex Taylor's projects were appreciated by the greatest, including Zanotta, Established & Sons, and Alexander McQueen himself. Fold Light's lamp has in its collection the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Institute of Design in Chicago. The most important for him are style, innovation and responsibility. These categories were accompanied, among others, by the implementation of PrimeKnit technology for the Adidas brand. Taylor used the revolutionary way of three-dimensional weaving of footwear without generating textile waste. At the time of implementation, it was the most radiccally pro-ecological project implemented for this producer. This concept is widely used today by the entire footwear industry. Taylor confirms his commitment to the environment as the ambassador of the Parley for the Oceans project. It is a group of creators, leaders and intellectuals who work to raise awareness of the dangers posed by ocean pollution.

It seems many people are looking for ways to escape their housing situation due to their mortgage terms. Though I feel like I've posted some blogs lately focused on some of the negative aspects of the industry, people in desparate situations can often benefit from information just as someone who is less under the gun.
MSNBC posted an article addressing the question of whether or not to take on bankruptcy or foreclosure if the finances can't meet the needs. The response of the author was interesting.
The first point is to try to avoid either as much as possible. If you're in trouble contact your lender now. Don't wait until the foreclosure process has begun. If it has, contact them anyway. If you can see things are not looking good, address them honestly as soon as possible. There are options to help home owners get back on their feet.
Next, if you have to (and a good lawyer will be the best consultant), don't foreclose on the home. If you file for bankruptcy protection but don't lose the home, future lenders may consider that. If you walk away from the home and foreclosure occurs, lenders will weigh that out heavily in the future.
Finally, if your budget simply won't let you get back on your feet and you know you will have to walk away no matter what, be sure to tie up all loose ends as much as possible. You can start over and get your finances back under control.
The key thing is to understand your options. Contact a professional who can help you out. A good Realtor or Lawyer can help. In fact, lenders tend to be more negotiable when a good third party is involved.

"Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." Rule #13 in Rules for Radicals by Saul Alinsky.
While Alinsky died decades ago and his disciples—Barak Obama and Hillary Clinton—are gone from the political scene, his poisonous philosophy is alive and well today on the political left. Last week, The Middle Resolution became the subject of Alinsky-ite attacks when we were harassed about our special guest, Dr. Sebastian Gorka, scheduled to be our featured speaker at an April 18th event.
Opponents of Dr. Gorka, a native of Hungary, have made false claims about his father's membership in an anti-Soviet organization in the 1960's and 1970's. Dr. Gorka served as deputy assistant to President Trump, which in the liberal mind is considered a "crime." Now, whenever Dr. Gorka speaks at events like ours, the left trots out these false claims in an attempt to intimidate, hoping to shut Dr. Gorka and his audience down.
Last week, we were threatened, but we are NOT backing down. The Middle Resolution was founded on bedrock Constitutional principles. As you know, the First Amendment provides a number of protections for our liberty, including free speech and the right to peacefully assemble. It would be contrary to everything our organization stands for to cower from these threats to our liberties. We will not be intimidated by people who hold different political views.
Originally, the April 18th event was scheduled at the Hanover Tavern in Hanover, Virginia, but because demand to hear Dr. Gorka's views on national security and the successes of the Trump Administration are so great, we are moving to a larger venue. The event will now be held at the Delta Hotels Marriott Richmond Downtown, located at 555 East Canal Street, Richmond, VA 23219.
We hope you can join us on April 18 and support our sacred liberty and enjoy our constitutional rights of free speech and peaceful assembly. Please hurry. Tickets are going fast!

Hi guys! How's your weekend goinnnn?
Mine kicked off to a great start. I was invited to a bloggers' party yesterday at IDO's Clinic, a Skin, Laser and Aesthetics Medical Clinic chains that focus on non-to minimally invasive cosmetic treatments. Was pretty psyched coz I was always curious bout laser treatments and what they do to the skin and also aesthetics treatments! I mean, a nose job without having to be cut into just sounds perfect, no? haha..
The party was held at their Setiawalk, Puchong branch. Started off with a treasure hunt game to find products or treatment vouchers and you get to keep what you find so we went hysterical and worked real hard haha and I was very happy with what I got!
A very interesting in depth and highly educational talk was then given by their Medical Director, Dr. Lucas Chia on skin lasers and aesthetics procedures, my FAV topic so my attention was undivided! Boy was I wrong about botox all these while… now he makes me wanna try it :p
Onto the moment that I've been waiting for. Live demonstration of two different procedures! We were lucky enough to be able to experience it first hand. The laser treatment demo was alright and I got to try it on my hand (the feeling of it wasn't exactly my favorite hahaha).
The filler jab into the nose was pretty intense but the results were amazinggggg. Just a 5 minutes procedure but the difference it makes! Sorry I didn't really get to take a proper before & after pics. Dr Chia performed the nose filler procedure himself and I can tell that he reallyyyy knows his way around it, coz it was real quick and he made it look so easy and as painless as it can be coz there wasn't any screaming or crying involved hahaha.
Everyone at IDO's Clinic were extremely helpful and approachable and I felt comfortable there. The highlight of my day was when one of the girls working there complimented me on my skin. Say whatttttttttttt? I never ever got that in my life coz of my battle with acne so its huge for me. All in all, I had a splendid time and I came out of IDO's Clinic knowing so much more about "Beauty Without Knife" which is my kind of beauty coz there's no way I'm gonna let anyone cut my face up. So will I ever lose my aesthetics treatment virginity? Yeah maybe we'll see 😉
DR Chia & I.
Me, Gwen, & Belinda
So that's a wrap! Thanks again IDO's Clinic for having me and for the generous $1k plus worth of treatment vouchers that I'll definitely undoubtedly use! I'll post an update on my treatments there soon.

NEW ORLEANS — Despite a recent victory in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, the Louisiana oil and gas industry still faces the threat of new litigation from state and local governments.
On March 17, the appeals court ruled against the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority-East's request to have its lawsuit against over 90 oil companies for the damage that they have allegedly caused to the coastal area moved to a state court. The lawsuit alleges that the companies' activities have damaged Louisiana's coastal lands, increased the risk of flooding from storm surges and necessitated costly flood protection measures.
The Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority-East is comprised of East Jefferson Levee District, Orleans Levee District and Lake Borgne Basin Levee District. Its mission is to "ensure the physical and operational integrity of the regional flood risk management system," according to its website.
The appeals court ruling has its roots in a 2015 attempt by the authority to have the lawsuit moved from federal court to state court. U.S. District Judge Nannette Jolivette Brown ruled that the dispute focused on federal laws and therefore belongs in federal court. Brown also ruled that the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority-East had failed to demonstrate that the 97 oil companies named in the lawsuit had a duty to repair the damage to the levees, which included refilling that canals.
The Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority-East appealed Brown's decision, but a three-judge panel affirmed Brown's decisions.
While representatives of the the oil and gas industry have said they consider the ruling to be a victory, there is still concern over the threat associated with similar legal challenges in the future, according to Don Briggs, president of the Louisiana Oil and Gas Association.
"Unfortunately, not much has changed," Briggs told the Louisiana Record. "We still are dealing with the same small group of trial lawyers going after oil and gas companies."
So far, six parishes have filed suit against oil and gas companies, Briggs said.
"Recently, St. John the Baptist became the sixth parish to file suit against oil and gas companies," Briggs said. "First, it was landowners filing frivolous lawsuits, now it's local government and elected officials coming after the very industry that supports them. "
Briggs said the Louisiana Oil and Gas Association is working to discourage other local governments from participating in similar lawsuits.
"We are continuing our outreach to coastal parishes and elected officials across Louisiana and encouraging them to not follow the other six parishes by filing a suit of their own," Briggs said. "We know that Taylor Townsend has a signed contract and is now working for the state in managing these lawsuits, so we are concerned what the next step might be."

Webinar: March 6th @12 p.m. (EST)
Submitted by: Boston College Center for Corporate Citizenship
Categories: Human Resources & Diversity, Events
Posted: Feb 20, 2013 – 10:00 AM EST
BOSTON, Feb. 20 /CSRwire/ - In honor of International Women's Day the Center for Corporate Citizenship will be hosting a webinar that explores the ways in which companies engage and develop the women leaders in their companies.
For the first time in American history, women make up a greater percentage of the workforce in professional jobs than men, and earn well over half of all University degrees. However, only 3% of the Fortune 500 CEOs are women. Recent research and writing on the topic of women in the workplace seem to suggest that women still face immense challenges in the workplace, and may opt to leave firms rather than languish in stalled careers or face ever-increasing social pressure to be everything to everyone.
Gender diversity is a critical factor in improving business leadership and decision-making, but it is also essential for the overall financial environmental, governance performance, and long term sustainability of a company. Studies suggest that the presence of women at the top positively affect all areas of business practice and success, and that companies that place explicit emphasis on gender diversity tend to perform better in general.
So how can you keep qualified, talented women at your company, develop them as leaders, and reap the benefits all around?
Join us on March 6th at 12 p.m. for a discussion with two member companies; Fidelity & PwC, and find out how they are taking steps to address these important questions and reap the social and business value of women leadership.

Client denies drinking when asked and explains that he was the designated driver, returning from a night out with his girlfriend. Officer says he could smell the odor of alcohol "masked by a sweet fragrance." Client is asked of he would submit to a Portable Breath Test (PBT) and/or Field Sobriety Tests, and declines the breath test but does agree to perform the road-side FSTs. Officer administers the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus Test (HGN), the Walk and Turn test, and the One Leg Stand Test, and then forms the opinion that client is impaired. Client then admits to having a few rum-and-cokes earlier int he evening. Through cross-examination at a pre-trial hearing, the defense demonstrates that the officer's administration of the HGN test failed to comply with his training in many respects. Subsequent negotiations results in a reduction of the charges. VERDICT: DWI COMPLAINT DISMISSED.

Posted on 05.12.2018
I am over the moon with the results from the smoothies! I am a harsh critic when it comes to things like this but I can honestly say I have noticed a huge difference. I got mastitis in my first week of pregnancy which affected my supply badly in my right boob which is now back up! I used to pump about 100ml in 24 hours as well as breastfeeding. I have today pumped 400ml! I'm so happy and will be shouting about this product from the rooftops! Thank you so much!

The Power of Numbers
Maria's Story
Victoria, British-Columbia
August 19, 2016
The numbers tell my story best. Which is ironic, because, after my diagnosis, I made a promise to myself to avoid the numbers at all costs. No googling "ovarian cancer". No way. No numbers, not ever. But these days, I measure the world in numbers: the number of days between appointments, the fluctuating tumour markers, the blood test data, the surgery dates.
Maria (Left) with fellow Team Wookie member, Karen.
On the day of the 2016 Walk in Victoria, it will be 24 months since my diagnosis. That day in September 2014 when what was supposed to be routine surgery for fibroids became, instead, the first day of dealing with cancer - a shocking one-word response to nine months of abdominal pain, back ache and a wildly uncharacteristic lack of appetite. At the time, I was 41.
The ugly numbers:
- Two six-month rounds of chemotherapy.
- Two major abdominal surgeries.
- Four trips to emergency.
- Untold thousands - the cost of the targeted and other medications I take each month.
- Zero - what I knew about ovarian cancer and its symptoms before I was diagnosed.
The beautiful numbers:
- One rock solid husband.
- Two incredible step daughters.
- Two pairs of devoted parents and parents-in-law.
- Five amazing siblings and their families.
- One spectacularly loving Brittany spaniel.
- Countless acts of kindness and gestures of support from friends, neighbours and co-workers.
- One old, but newly teal, house where I take refuge and heal.
- And… 75, which was the turnout for my team, Team Wookie, at the 2015 Walk in Victoria.
The Wookie moniker is a play on my surname, and a lifelong nickname. It stuck, like a Wookie, those loyal united warriors. The kind of gentle giants you want beside you when the playground bullies arrive…
I remember the moment last year as the team gathered to walk. The Team Wookie sign held aloft, a growing throng of Wookies assembling behind it. More Wookies kept arriving, dwarfing the number I expected, astonishing me. Everyone wore a special brown bandolier; each one made by my unstoppable Mom, even a baby-size bandolier for a special friend's new daughter.
Some of these Wookies I had known for years; others stepped further into my life at a time when I needed it most; still others were acquaintances that felt moved enough to walk after learning about my experience. I felt buoyed, grateful and very emotional.
Being treated for ovarian cancer can be a lonely, isolating and bewildering experience. I thought my treatment would follow a logical, linear path. A straight line. But it's not like that. Treatment is not a predictable line, not even close. Treatment is a game of snakes and ladders.
People often ask us, "How I can help?" The answer: The Ovarian Cancer Canada Walk of Hope.
Every person going through this needs their own team of Wookies – people who will learn about this disease, and talk about it amongst their friends. People who are willing to speak up for more, much more, to be done. This is the only route to change.
Back to the numbers for a second. Because the numbers associated with ovarian cancer are unacceptable. This disease has been overlooked for far too long. There is a tremendous overdue opportunity to improve the outcomes and experiences of ovarian cancer patients, through consistent and fair access to drugs, reliable screening methods, research, and more treatment options. This change of numbers begins with one person; this one person can build a team.
The bottom line: the medical community wants to do more, must do more; governments must do better. We must do better for all women. Insist on it.
Despite the difficulties I face, I know I am fortunate: my Wookies are behind me as always, fighting for better outcomes, fighting for better numbers. Fighting for me and for women everywhere. Who could ask for more?
Yes, I am fortunate. The days when I feel flat and empty, I only have to think of my Wookies and I find hope.

M.C. Lori
Lori, aka MC Weaver and MC Extemporaneous, loves to Master your Ceremonies. As an emcee, she specializes in vacillating between being commandingly clear to ridiculously enthused, all delivered with her aching earnestness. She cut her teeth on the mic through weekly emcee duties at her local venue before finding the joy in speaking to hundreds at weekend events. She believes strongly that being a good emcee is being a good party host: welcoming out-of-towners, explaining appropriate conduct, checking in with bands, DJ's, and organizers for revised timelines, and keeping everyone happy, informed and moving along. In competitions, she strives for clarity in expectations amongst all judges, competitors, the DJ and the audience, and collaborates with organizers to speed or stall as the situation may require. For performances, she invites audiences to engage, marvel and participate with the teams in front of them. Each event is different, and she is happy to talk with organizers to discuss what's most important to you and what unique spirit you have in mind for your event.
Hiring Requirements:
Flight or mileage reimbursement to the event
Housing accommodations near the event
Dance pass to the event
Emcee fee varies according to total tasks (dance, competitions, performances, panels, etc.)
Past Work
Swingin' At the Savoy 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, & 2018, Oakland [emcee]

Friday Feature - Task Permissions
As the mother of a teenage son, I let him borrow my car but not reprogram the radio stations. (You know what I mean.) Well, Escape Online has a similar concept. For example, hundreds and hundreds of users have the ability to create, edit, and submit vendor requisitions when there is enough money in the budget to cover the total amount of the requisition. That seems reasonable. But, there are also a handful of power users that should be able to override this budget constraint. How do you handle that?
The answer is through the miraculous feature called Task Permissions. They are controlled through the User record. On the Finance side, the most popular task-permissions given are for "overriding budget" and "bypassing approvals." On the HR/Payroll side, the most popular is giving the ability to generate test retirement files.
Let's take a peek at a couple of lines in the Activity Permissions tab in the User record, where you can define access to activities and/or the tasks associated with those activities.
Using lookups, I can select the activity, and then the permission. I assign an edit or read role and then "allow" it.
Reading from the top of this screen shot, the first line deals with the Checks activity. This permission will be for the whole activity. We know this because the Activity Task is blank. Notice how the Edit Role is also blank, but the Read Role is specified. This means that this user will have read-only access.
The next two lines define tasks for the Vendor Requisitions activity. They give permission to override approvals and budget. They have an edit role defined because these tasks will edit or affect the record.
These permissions mean that when my selected power user goes to the Vendor Requisition activity, those tasks will be available on their Task menu.
Remarkable! If only I could use this on my car radio.
