● By Julie Ross
I hope it's bright and sunny outside as you read this. As I write, we are crawling out from under January's multi-day deluge but still feeling the weight of overcast skies. The scene out the window is drab and damp. It's no wonder that the shorter, gloomy days of winter can make us feel tired, anxious, and moody.
Scientists tell us a disruption in our circadian rhythms, the dark/light cycle of our body clock, is to blame. For most of us, the effects are thankfully mild; others live with the debilitating syndrome of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). When bright natural daylight is not available, many people suffering from SAD find relief by sitting near a "sun box," which provides exposure to super bright artificial light for 30 or more minutes a day. Others use a "dawn simulator," which mimics daybreak with gradually increasing light in the morning.
For those of us who are just feeling a bit down, what advice is out there to brighten our mood? I read about the obvious -- listen to cheery music, get outside, help others, do yoga. Then I came upon the best suggestion yet: Eat chocolate. Brilliant!
There are 300 naturally occurring chemicals in chocolate, many of which affect your brain in a feel-good way. Anandamide is a neurotransmitter that activates a receptor to produce dopamine to provide a feeling of well-being. Anandamide is named for ananda, the Sanskrit word for "bliss." (Pass the Ghirardelli squares already!)
Chocolate contains caffeine and theobromine, stimulants also shown to produce dopamine. Then there's tryptophan, which releases serotonin, a mood lifting neurotransmitter. Having a rough day? Eating chocolate releases endorphins into the brain, decreasing levels of stress and pain.
Adding to the joyous chocolaty complexity is the presence of phenylethylamine, a "love drug" that lends alertness, provides a degree of excitement, quickens your pulse, and, well, just makes you happy.
More good news – you only need a small amount of chocolate, about half an ounce, approximately the equivalent of two Hershey's kisses, to reap all these pleasurable benefits.
If no one gifts you with chocolate on February 14 this year, be your own Valentine and treat yourself to a heart-shaped box of the good stuff. Bring on the bliss!

I awoke this morning wanting spring. I bought tulips yesterday. I have buds and small flowers on my Bradford pear tree. I have moss on my maple tree.
Instead, I see this...a little snow. A thin white dusting.
Oh well...I guess I will have to create a few things...

How Good People Make Tough Choices: Resolving the Dilemmas of Ethical Living based on 0 ratings. 6 reviews.
Good read. Enjoyed the practical examples.
This is a super reference that provides readers with pragmatic guidance on making ethical choices when often a less moral short cut is available. Mr. Kidder uses specific examples deciding right from wrong in which most frequently neither is absolute and rarely are they the solo options or obvious which is actually right and wrong. In some cases, the dilemma in choosing what your values scream at you is right, but doing so places you in an uncomfortable position when not doing what your gut feels is right would be noticed by only one person. Loaded with specific examples of having to choose (for instance, the example of worried parents talking to their child's teacher about behavior when the child told the teacher a secret in confidence) makes this a winner. Even society and communities have difficult ethical choices between for instance the environment and energy or development and heritage as short term needs bump against long term goals. Sometimes the debate is personal and communal as is the case with abortion. How people look at the issues may change as for instance HIV when Magic Johnson told the world he had it and the economy influences decisions especially in recessions; still Mr. Kidder still feels strongly a person must eat or get their medicine while sticking to their personal values. Throughout Mr. Kidder makes this case to adhere to your personal values even when it hurts in the short run because you are being true to yourself, which in the long run will cause less pain to you. This is a strong guidebook due to the terrific pragmatic examples of making tough ethical choices. Harriet Klausner

"Wow! I'm not alone in my weird ice-chewing addiction!"
"Who doesn't love chewable ice?"
"Simply the best ice!"
These are only some of the faithful tributes to chewing ice that live in the social sphere. So what's the value of such comments? Well, if you create ice machines like Scotsman Ice Systems does, it's music to your ears.
That's why when it came time to launch a new campaign, this exercise in social listening made all of the difference. Instead of opting to create a traditional print ad showing its latest amazing ice machine, Scotsman embraced the community that absolutely adores its products.
Scotsman produces a very specific nugget-shaped ice that a lot of people crave. This chewable ice can be found at Sonic and other big chains. People actually drive past the competing chains just to get nugget ice!
Thus, "Luv the Nug" was born in conjunction with its agency, gyro Cincinnati, which spotted this passionate ice-chewing crowd rising above the online chatter. This community rallied around The Original Chewable Ice®, using Facebook, a microsite and feet-on-the-street guerrilla marketing efforts.
To ignite the project, ice chewers were rewarded for expressing why and how much they love nugget ice with Scotsman's "Live Life with the Lid Off" contest. The most passionate ice chewer was awarded with an ice machine of his or her own. (If you're an ice-chewing fanatic, this is your chance. Another contest just launched.)
LuvtheNug.com supplies fans with the tools to find, live, share, know and demand the Nug in their area with petitions, purchasable swag, drink recipes made with nugget ice, and the first-ever Nug locator mobile app.
The campaign also includes the Nug Truck, a branded truck serving nugget ice at locations across the country. All told, the destination continues to draw tens of thousands united by a strange and surprisingly common love.
Overall, awareness and excitement of nugget ice in the foodservice industry accelerated, and a proven demonstrated preference of the brand surpassed industry expectations.
Luv the Nug has become an integral part of Scotsman's brand platform and a destination for consumers to share their love for nugget ice. Most important, Scotsman saw a double-digit increase in the sale of nugget ice machines in the first year of the campaign.
The campaign has accomplished more than just selling ice machines. It connects the Scotsman brand with the people who share their passion for nugget ice, indefinitely.

Overall satisfaction:
a guest from Chula Vista, CA recommends this vacation rental
Our vacation rental experience was professional and easy. All interactions took place as expected. The Kamaole Sands complex was very clean and quiet. The inclusion of bar-b-ques throughout the complex made evening grilling a breeze. The top floor condo
with a sunset view was comfortable and well equipped. The kitchen had all needed conveniences to include a rice cooker, toaster and tea pot. The beds were very comfortable. The inclusion of beach items such as chairs, wave boards, sand toys and towels eliminated
the need to rent from a local vendor or bring on the airplane. We would absolutely rent this unit again.
Aloha Brent,

I provide assistance to businesses like yours by helping you create or redesign a website.
With my process you get zero smoke and mirrors. You get a guide, who will take you in the informed direction. I take you behind the scenes.
First we'll meet to plan the general outline of your website and general purpose. We'll also review any visual elements like logos, photos and color theme. We'll determine an action plan for any additional visual elements, if needed.
Next I'll design a few pages based on the outline.
We'll meet again briefly to make sure I'm fulfilling your vision.
I complete the creation or redesign of your website. You can pay me by the hour or by the project, whichever is cheaper. The rate will be determined by the number of pages in the outline of your website and the number of visual assets I'm providing, if any. My charges do not include web hosting or site registration, although I can arrange both, if needed.
When you're satisifed with the new website we make it *live.* The new website will exist in draft mode until you're ready. Your current website remains active until the new site goes live. There will be no interruption in your web presence.

Managed LMS Hosting
The last thing you want to deal with is managing your LMS hosting
Ensuring the effective, reliable and seamless availability of your learning management system takes expertise. Designing, implementing and managing the system in-house involves securing a team of IT specialists, which can be a costly and time-consuming exercise.
A more cost effective option, is to outsource your learning management system hosting to the MyLearningSpace team of experts. We take care of the technical aspects of your project on an ongoing basis for a small fraction of the cost of employing your own` IT team. Meanwhile, you get to focus on core business.
We provide E-Learning solutions via the SaaS model. Software as a Service, also known as SaaS or on-demand software, is a way of delivering software applications to the end-user over the internet. SaaS can provide great advantages for most businesses, primarily in costs and flexibility.

For those of you who don't know, I spent the last week of August visiting with one of my best friends, Anna, in San Fransisco, California. Anna and I have known each other since the fifth grade, and she moved to France our sophomore year of high school. Since then, we have always kept in touch, and the last time we saw each other in person was four years ago. So I was beyond excited to spend a whole week with her.
Our week was spent exploring the city of San Fransisco, which is so amazing and unique! If any of my followers live in California, you guys are so lucky! It's an gorgeous state. I loved seeing the Golden Gate Bridge, attending a San Fransisco Giants game and taking everything in. But, of course, we did a lot of shopping too! I bought so many cute new things that you will see featured in blog posts soon.
I wanted to do a quick blog post on my time in California, so I have my memories documented, to look back on in the future, and to share with you a little more about my life! I'm hoping to work on more lifestyle posts and open up a bit more here on my blog - let me know if this is something you'd like to see! If you want to see more pictures from California, head over to my Instagram.
Now I am back in Boston and starting my fourth year at Northeastern University. I am looking forward to what fall brings, but it was nice to end my summer in California!

This was delicious. The only changes I made was to cut the recipe in half since I only had 3 steaks to prepare. I will be making this again!
This was very good and very easy. Our cube steak was tough, but that's not the recipe's fault. Made country gravy from a package. Quicker that way.
I used Bread Crumbs instead of crackers.
I made this just like it was written and my family loved it! Thank you for sharing. The only thing I did differently, was I used Venison cube steak.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — On Wednesday, OPEC member states agreed in Vienna to reduce oil production by 1.2 million barrels a day to bring its ceiling to 32.5 million barrels daily effective from January 2017. Novak said following the OPEC meeting that non-OPEC member Russia is ready to gradually reduce its oil output by up to 300,000 barrels per day.
OPEC's meeting with oil producing countries not making part of the cartel but supporting its decision is expected to take place in Doha December 9.
"It will be ready by the meeting with OPEC countries," Novak said, adding that he expects all large Russian companies to take part in oil production cuts within framework of the OPEC deal.
Russia's cooperation with the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) is of long-term nature, Russia is ready to consider the option of extending its agreement with the cartel on oil production after the first half of 2017, Russian Energy Minister underlined.
"I think that our cooperation and interaction on the market is of long-term character, if our agreements are implemented and it is necessary to take extra steps we shall take part in this."

Alan McManus is carrying a flag for not only Scotland at the Betfred World Championship, but also snooker's elder statesmen.
The 45-year-old from Glasgow is into his second quarter-final in three years at the Crucible, having at one stage not qualified for six straight seasons.
Since 1985 and Ray Reardon, only Steve Davis has reached the last eight at a more advanced age, when he knocked out John Higgins at 52 in 2010.
This year is the 25th anniversary of McManus's bow at the famous arena, and both his finest moments came more than two decades ago – a pair of semi-finals in 1992 and 1993.
And this year he will take on either fellow Scot John Higgins or England's Ricky Walden for another place in the last four.
World No29 McManus said: "Anything to do with Steve Davis I'll take, that because the guy is a legend.
"I guess he'll have been in his early 50s so he had a few years on me but anything you can do alongside the Nugget for me is massive.
"At 45 to get to the quarters I guess is a decent little effort. I'd like to go further but that's a few days down the road before I take care of that.
"My resurgence is just the simple fact that we're busier now as players, you are always playing matches and tournaments.
"It's not work, we're not digging roads here - I don't think I've had a day off in a couple of months, but I'd rather be here that's for sure.
"Any run here is right up there. There's plenty of really great players in our game that have never won a match here, but I still want to win and am not here to make up numbers."
McManus is chasing a first semi-final appearance at the Crucible for 23 years – and remembers the last one, a 16-8 loss to compatriot and seven-time winner Stephen Hendry.
McManus added: "I only remember two things about it. I remember the piper piping us in to the arena with just the one table before it.
"And then I remember the first frame he smashed in a long red and made over a hundred and I thought 'welcome to the one table at the Crucible'.
"I can't think about a semi-final or anything like that, as I have a very, very tough match before that. I'm just going to concentrate, play and see where it takes me."

Download E-books Ban This Filth!: Letters From the Mary Whitehouse Archive PDF
In 1964, Mary Whitehouse introduced a crusade to struggle what she known as the 'propaganda of disbelief, doubt and grime' being poured into houses throughout the nation's radio and tv units. Whitehouse, senior mistress at a Shropshire secondary university, turned the not likely figurehead of a mass stream for censorship: the nationwide audience' and Listeners' organization, now Mediawatch-uk.
For virtually 40 years, she saved up the struggle opposed to the programme makers, politicians, pop stars and playwrights who she felt have been dragging British tradition right into a sewer of blasphemy and obscenity. From Doctor Who ('Teatime brutality for tots') to Dennis Potter (whose mom sued her for libel and gained) to the Beatles - whose Magical secret Tour escaped her intervention through the surface of its psychedelic enamel - the record of Mary Whitehouse's goals will learn to a couple like a nostalgic roll of honour.
Caricatured whereas she lived as a determine of middle-brow response, Mary Whitehouse was once held in contempt by means of the country's highbrow elite. yet have been the various risks she warned of extra actual than they imagined?
Ben Thompson's choice of fabric from her striking archive indicates Mary Whitehouse's legacy in a startling new mild. From her exquisitely testy exchanges with successive BBC administrators normal, to the anguished screeds penned through her tv and radio vigilantes, those letters display a posh and combative person, whose anxieties approximately tradition and morality are usually eerily proper to the age of the web.

I do ask you to refuse those motion pictures for cinemas in Cornwall. Yours faithfully, Ann Whitaker Whitaker's letter exhibits simply how strongly matters approximately severe cinematic content material mirrored nervousness over the type of delinquent motion it was once inspiration prone to motivate. Mary Whitehouse famously – even perhaps notoriously – asserted that the skill of, say, A Clockwork Orange to steer the behaviour of a few (albeit now not all) of these who observed it didn't must be scientifically confirmed, as to imagine the lifestyles of one of these linkage was once 'common sense'. For the entire mockery to which this view used to be topic on the time, nobody who has (as i've got) witnessed the effect of a casual screening of the movie on a meeting of drunken gluepunks referred to as the Hackney Hell team at a mid-eighties Homerton squat social gathering can relatively deny the reality of it. the level to which artists should still take accountability for the prospective reactions to their paintings of disturbed contributors (whether topic to real psychiatric problems or in simple terms out in their minds on specific Brew) is a thorny philosophical factor. on the subject of A Clockwork Orange, tabloid headlines and late-night phone loss of life threats (in which no NVALA member used to be ever implicated) made up the director Stanley Kubrick's brain for him, and at his insistence the movie used to be withdrawn from move within the united kingdom for nearly 20 years – re-emerging purely after his loss of life in 1999, and receiving its first complete uncut television broadcast on Sky field place of work in 2001. It's on ITV for all time, now. Mary Whitehouse's NVALA and Ann Whitaker's CSA appear to have collaborated very fortunately in campaigns over A Clockwork Orange and different landmarks of cinematic depravity. in spite of the fact that, the expanding eagerness of the pageant of sunshine (under its formidable new director Raymond Johnson) to mark out its personal territory as an service provider could lead Mary to factor the next imperious summation of her position in its genesis. probably now not unusually – Whitehouse kicks to kill – the FOL pulled its head in a piece after this, and later mutated apologetically right into a lower-profile physique referred to as Christian motion learn and schooling. Letter to competition of sunshine director Raymond Johnston twenty ninth March, 1977 expensive Raymond, Very many thank you to your letter – I greatly have fun with the tone within which it used to be written. in spite of the fact that, it sort of feels to me that if we're to transparent the air thoroughly, there are nonetheless a few issues which must be acknowledged. I do remember that it's most likely particularly tough for you, who've come at the scene relatively past due, to understand totally what has occurred due to the fact that 1963 and certainly, even perhaps within the very early days of FOL. i'm fairly convinced that the current problems have arisen just because FOL and VALA have been, until eventually your appointment, lots concerned one with the opposite. As you may be conscious, in case you have learn Max Caulfield's biography of me, that the 1st suggestion of a 'Festival of sunshine' used to be born in a talk among Malcolm Muggeridge and myself greater than a 12 months prior to Peter Hill got here to Britain.

Duration and Cost of Sessions
The first assessment session lasts 60 - 90 minutes and it is the ideal opportunity for you to see whether you feel this might be the right place for you. During this time we will ask questions so that we can get a sense of what has brought you to seek psychotherapy or counselling at this time. We can explore your expectations and goals, any anxieties, and other questions you may have. We will also discuss the possible length of the therapy or counselling and we will explain our policy regarding confidentiality, fees, cancellations and appointment times. There is a charge of £60 for the initial assessment session.
Thereafter each weekly session will last for 50 minutes and we offer a sliding scale of charges (£60 - £100) for future sessions depending on what you are able to afford. You are always free to end the therapy or counselling at any time but please be aware that missed sessions or late cancellations generally incur a charge.

Indeed, Sèvrescelebratesin 2015 the Years crossed France-Korea , organizing two exhibitions; The one heritage with Roman of a traveler , the other contemporary through the presentation of the works of Yik-Yung Kim and Yeun-Kyung Kim .
This contemporary section focuses on the creativity of two Korean artists in the fields of ceramics and glass.
Yik-Yung KIM (born in 1935 in Chongjin and working in Seoul) is considered a major artist in her country, For making the link between cultural heritage and contemporary creation in porcelain and sandstone, in the Korean tradition of Buncheong (white slip on simple shapes decorated with traces of the brush and covered with a transparent and glossy enamel revealed by cooking).
Crystalloid, Kim Yik Yung.
The glass creations of Yeun-Kyung KIM (born in 1970 in Seoul, currently responsible for the glass workshop at the ENSAD in Strasbourg) will be presented with her work of glass accumulation and compression. Glass windows of the 2000s, glass sculptures and a recent installation on tables of blown shapes reminiscent of black or transparent belly waxers.
Memory I, Kim Yeun Kyung.

Interview: KIM YIK YUNG
Ceramic artist brings a modern touch to an ancient art
Magazine Seoul in January 2013
written by Robert Koehler
Photographed by Ryu Seunghoo
"White porcelain represents Koreans. In the old days, Korean used to wear all white."
One of Korea's most respected ceramic artists, Kim Yik-Yung has been a pioneer in the ceramic arts. With over five decades of work, she has striven endlessly to bring Korea's ceramic heritage into the modern world. Her work, inspired by the pure white baekja("white porcelain") of the Joseon Dynasty (1397-1592), has been lauded worldwide for its harmonization of tradition and modern sensibilities.
Appreciating what you have
Despite Korea's centuries-old ceramics tradition, it wasn't easy for Kim to become a ceramist, especially in 1950s Korea. "At first, I majored in chemical engineering. In the 1950s, all of Korea's industry behind the ceramic arts, was no different I took interest in ceramics production from the industrial perspective, but I grew fascinated with the beauty of ceramics, and so became a ceramics artist."
Just learning about ceramics at that time was a challenge, however. The Korean ceramics industry had all but been destroyed during the first half of the 20th century, and few places offered instruction on ceramic art. The United States and Japan, however, offered more opportunities in this regard, so Kim went overseas, first to New York's Alfred University and later to Japan, a nation known for both its love of Korean ceramics and respect for the ceramics profession.
While at Alfred University, she attended a lecture by British ceramics artist Bernard Leach, considered one of the greatest Western ceramicists of the 20th century. Hong Kong-born and Japanese-trained, Leach was intimately tied to the folk arts movement of early 20th century Japan. Korean ceramics-and the ceramics of regard within the movement for its rustic, craftman-like beauty. In his lecture, Leach pointed to Joseon Dynasty baekja as the aesthetic ideal that modern ceramics should aim for. And with this, Kim found her calling.
No mere recreations
In the 1960s, Joseon baekja ceramics was a virtual terra nullius, "in our school textbooks, we learned about Goryeo celadon, but there was nothing about Joseon baekja," Baekja was the pure white porcelain favored by the Joseon Dynasty's aristocratic elite. Its pure white color and restrained beauty were praised as an artistic expression of neo-Confucianism, the ruling ideology of the kingdom. Despite the respect shown for it overseas, Korean art historians had given it short thrift in favor of the more elegant, Buddhist-inspired designs of the Goryeo Dynasty's jade-colored celadon. Kim had to perform a lot of research on her own, including a three-year stint examining the Joseon baekja collection of the National Museum of Korea.
Kim is quick to note that her artwork is no mere recreation of Joseon Dynasty. " I don't produce Joseon baekja," she says. "I also don't recreate it. My production method, materials, and form do not recreate Joseon baekja in the traditional fashion. My connection with Joseon baekja is elsewhere."
That connection, she explain, is in borrowing the artistic motifs of Joseon baekja, and then recreating them. "Joseon baekja is highly praised not just for its form and shine, but also because it maintains its naturalness and simplicity at every level and allows ordinary people to use it as, say, dining implements, while the pieces themselves adopt the most beautiful crude elements possible."
To her (and Bernard Leach), Joseon baekja opened the way for modern ceramics. "Prior to Joseon baekja, pieces of ceramic art were not used in daily life. In that it struck a balance between art and general use, we can say Joseon baekja had already realized the task pursued by modernism to create a coexistence between distinction and universality."
To Kim, this coexistence of aesthetic beauty and general practicality is the artistic philosophy behind Joseon baekja and the governing philosophy her own work. "I find my inspiration in Josen baekja, as well as classical art, crafts and tools in regions like Africa and India where tradition still lives, and natural scenery." she says. This is where she finds and discovers her artistic fundamentals. "This is not just aesthetic information or something physical. I call it 'core elements,'" she explains. "To find and define these core elements, it's more important for a person to perceive them on the inside rather than see them from the outside. You can find true beauty only if you ask yourself what the basis of beauty is and think about it."
Once she's found the fundamentals, she can begin work. "After I've extracted the core elements, I conceptualize or plan a work by reconceptualizing those elements. I sketch them out or make a trial piece. In this way works are made that reflect these reconceptualized core elements. This process chain could be called creation as carried out by an artist."
A look at Kim's work reveals this process. Her work can generally by divided into four categories: vessels, lidded forms, ritual pedestals, and objects. All reveal the clear influence of baekja, but the forms are distinctively modern, tailored to a modern-day aesthetic.
Future of Korean ceramics
Kim sees a global future for Korean ceramics. "Koreans are good with their hands. They say have a craft technique," she says. "But craft technique cannot guarantee the future. Korea has a more valuable culture that it has kept for a long time: its frankness towards work, its self honesty, and its naturalism that seeks harmony with nature. This culture helps create an attitude of approaching the fundamentals in whatever Korean do."
Kim believes Koreans need to protect and develop this culture. "We don't need to protect and preserve things just because they are old. We need to protect and develop things because they have value. This Korean culture is a global idea we can where with all humanity."

The hounding of Neil Lennon brought the issue of sectarianism back into the spotlight. As Davy Millar writes, recent initiatives to revive the Irish League will fail unless this underlying problem is addressed.
Its not been a bad season for the Irish League so far. Our clubs still suffer from a shortage of fans, a lack of money, administrative cock-ups and an all-pervading sense of despair but we're used to all that sort of thing by now. The good news is that everybody agrees we're in a mess and they've all promised to think really hard about how to get out of it. Out of the mess, that is; Glentoran's Rory Hamill misunderstood that bit and promptly failed his UEFA Cup drug test.
The new realism is a product of the peace process, which has restricted the previously all-year-round sport of massive civil unrest to a few weeks each summer. Under-achievers in Northern Ireland have been stripped of their main excuse for failure and the local media, deprived of their main source of news for the past 30 years, are looking for soft targets to fill up their pages and airtime. They don't come much softer than the Irish League, which got such a sustained kicking during 2000 that even the dimmest official realised action was needed.
Another product of the peace process was the Northern Ireland Assembly, a chance for local politicians to lead the way to a new prosperous Ulster. They began by voting themselves a large pay-rise (prosperity has to start somewhere) but have since turned their attention to the electorate. Michael McGimpsey, the Minister for Culture, Arts and Leisure, set up a task force to investigate ways of revitalising the local game and that body got an earful from unhappy fans at a series of public meetings. More importantly, he backed up his interest with an unusual commodity – hard cash. The Safe Sports Grounds Programme has provided funds for clubs to improve their stadiums, many of which are so dilapidated they are often blamed for putting off potential supporters. The £4 million is welcome but, considering it has to be shared with some Gaelic and rugby grounds, it is a long way from sufficient.
The scale of the problem was illustrated last year when a safety official from England said that of the six League clubs he visited here, four had grounds which were only fit for immediate closure and one was a borderline pass. In defence of the clubs, it has to be said that they have had a raw deal when it comes to funding.
The Football Trust has helped clubs in the rest of the UK but seems to believe the Irish League is too remote and unimportant, a view shared by successive British governments, which is probably why the only significant intervention was the attempt to kill off local football by importing Wimbledon. Now, backed by politicians with a modicum of power and an interest in their survival, the League can hope that their case will carry more weight in future.
The missing fans won't return just because we've got comfier stadiums. Indeed, to judge by the success of the Ulster rugby side, the most basic amenities do not necessarily preclude sell-out crowds. The proposed improvements will help but it is the atmosphere surrounding too many of our games which is far more damaging to football. Ulster's success, and that of the Belfast Giants ice hockey team, shows that people are only too happy to support local sport but only if they feel safe and don't have to put up with incessant sectarian songs ringing in their ears.
The issue broke into the mainland British media thanks to the treatment handed out to Neil Lennon when he played for Northern Ireland against Norway at the end of February, but low-level manifestations of the same attitudes are a constant thread in the province's football. There is one Irish League chairman who says he would quite happily dispense with the support of 50 per cent of his team's supporters who, he feels, are preventing his club from moving forward.
He is frustrated at being told by so many people that they will not come to his ground, let alone bring their children, because they don't want to listen to the same old, sick songs while keeping a wary eye on the nearest set of thugs. The trouble is that, like their rivals, his club are in a financially perilous state and can't afford the loss of any more fans, no matter how badly they behave. He also points out that international crowds had begun to rise again in the absence of that offensive soundtrack, before the Lennon issue erupted with such depressing implications for the province's image, not to mention the Celtic player's own peace of mind.
The Irish League will never be anything but a minnow on the European stage, but it doesn't have to continue to fail on local terms. Administrators, the clubs and the fans who turned up at those task force meetings all believe that the game can have a future and have made a string of sensible suggestions; better grounds, fewer tournaments, increased community work from the clubs, cut-price family tickets, an IFA/ Irish League merger, and a total overhaul of the media, PR and marketing side of the game. Most of them understand, however, that if the wider public don't feel safe from violence or sectarianism, all the other proposals will be in vain.
One of a series of recent reports on the future of Northern Ireland highlighted the benefits of sport and the arts to a community. The intrinsic nature of both stimulates interest, engagement and involvement which enhance the quality of life for people living in that area. This, in turn, makes the region more attractive to outsiders and helps to attract both tourism and inward investment. Grants to either sphere, often seen as wasted money by governments, actually repay themselves many times over. Perhaps a mainstream sport, particularly one which pledged to confront actively public displays of sectarianism, would be a worthy recipient of assistance. At the very least, the IFA and Irish League could wake up and ask.
From WSC 170 April 2001. What was happening this month

"You ask questions like a true profiteer," Shevek said, and not a soul there knew he had insulted Dearri with the most contemptuous word in his vocabulary; indeed Dearri nodded a bit, accepting the compliment with satisfaction.
The Dispossessed is the fifth novel by Ursula Le Guin in what is known as the Hainish Cycle to some, to others as the Ekumen, although it is chronologically the first (slightly before The Word for World is Forest). It was published in 1974, in which year it won the Nebula Award, and in 1975 it also won the Locus and Hugo Awards. Le Guin herself comments on what these awards meant to her in this blog, although it is only one paragraph, quite low down, and this was not the first time she had won them, having previously achieved the Nebula/Hugo double for The Left Hand of Darkness in 1969. Other blogs by Le Guin are available here, I have read a few of them. The Dispossessed is the thirteenth book I have read by Le Guin, all in the last two-and-a-half years, and it is my joint favourite (with The Tombs of Atuan). This makes it one of my favourite books of all time. I bought it second-hand when I volunteered in the Oxfam bookshop in Aberystwyth in the first half of 2010, so I've been waiting a while to read it. I've previously written about The Left Hand of Darkness in this blog. While fantastic, I now prefer The Dispossessed.
The Dispossessed is set on the twin worlds of Anarres and Urras, known as Tau Ceti to the Terrans (people of our earth). These planets are populated by a race of human-like creatures which indeed call themselves "human"; the similarity is down to the origins of the human species across the universe in the Hainish Cycle, which is that the Hain colonized the universe, some of which (such as the Gethen in Left Hand) are either probably or certainly the result of genetic engineering. Urras is a world not unlike our own, a patriarchal society with a capitalist economic system. Anarres is the habitable "moon" or twin-planet of Urras, on which lives an anarchist society who chose to leave Urras about two-hundred and fifty years before the time in which The Dispossessed is set. The story revolves around Shevek, a physicist from Anarres, who choses to take up a professorship in a university on Urras when he feels that the society of Anarres is repressing his work.
The subtitle of the book, according to Wikipedia at least, is An Ambiguous Utopia. Anarres is presented as a far from perfect society, oppressed by jealousy and distrust, especially of Urras and the people living there. While there is no ruling system, the foulest insult is to be called a profiteer or propertarian, and egoising is terribly immoral, elements of bureaucracy have sunk into the libertarian structure of Anarres. On Urras, Shevek is presented with the luxury of single rooms, food to waste, and a servant class. He is kept strictly separate from the working classes. But compared to the arid wasteland of Anarres, Urras is beautiful bountiful, and there is plenty to go around. Urras is the most earth-like of all the societies which Le Guin has created,* with its capitalist and socialist societies, the walls which divide them,and the way in which the people of Urras act to one another and to Shevek.
As the novel progresses the perfection of Urras fades and the true freedom and fairness of Anarres becomes clear, I think that Le Guin wishes us to realise how true freedom does lie in the anarchism of Annares. There is an underlying theme that perhaps the Annares are so cut off from Urras, so afraid of someone going there, because they think that, perhaps, it might actually be better. It appears that the people of Annares think this too. Ultimately it appears that the flaw in originally allowing the Anarresti to create their colony, as it has become a symbol to those who might share their ideas – not only on Urras, but to the Hainish and Terran people who have encountered the Cetians as well. And why not? – it is wonderful to think that, somewhere out there in one of the billions of earth-like planets we now know to exist just in this galaxy, one of them has managed to form a working, anarchist society.
He tried to read an elementary economics text; it bored him part endurance, it was like listening to somebody interminably recounting a long and stupid dream.
As I was reading so much of this book this afternoon while invigilating a mock exam, I began to think of exam questions which I could set on The Dispossessed.** The only one which I have come up with is "Which is more important to Ursual Le Guin's The Dispossessed: physics or politics?" Le Guin makes several interesting comments about physics in the book, such as the limitations Einstein's earth-based humanity had on his perspective of the universe, compared to the much more substantial Cetian physics (which is more advanced than the space-travelling Hainish and Terrans, somehow…). The structure of the book, which begins with Shevek's journey to Urras then recounts in alternate chapters his life up to that point and his time on Urras, is based on the principal of simultaneity, questioning the linear perspective which we have on time ourselves (although both times are told, in themselves, in order). I enjoyed both Urras and Anarres, so I was perfectly happy with this structure, but I am not sure that I could take any great meaning out of it. All I will suggest is that Le Guin's previous use of the Ekumen/Hainish universe has been to create stories based on Taoism, which as far as I can tell had been abandoned in this book.
The politics, however, were of great interest to me. I consider myself to be phenomenally left-wing, identifying as anarchist on my Facebook profile at least, in person I will tend towards socialism. I have never read any socialist or anarchist literature besides fiction.*** I also cannot stand economics. Perhaps it is not for the best that my anarchism is based on Le Guin and Alan Moore's V for Vendetta, but when people tell me that V is an "ambiguous" hero, or that Anarres is an "ambiguous" utopia, I have to disagree. V's only failing is that he kills, Anarres may not have much to support life, but having wealth in abundance has not made Urras a more equal society – has not made earth a more equal society. On Anarres, it takes a famine to lead anyone to starve:
He had fasted sometimes when he was working because he did not want to be bothered with eating, but two full meals a day had always been available: constant as sunrise and sunset. He had never even thought about what it might be like to go without them.
So far, so like my middle-class English life on Earth. But the passage goe on to the very heart of the issue:
Nobody in his society, nobody in the world, had to go without them.
It is an anathema to Anarresti society that anyone should eat while another one starves, and this is a planet with practically nothing. It is not even the famine, but a train derailment which leads Shevek to miss his meals. When he comes to Urras there is plenty to go around – and yet there are people with nothing. When we come to earth there is plenty to go around – so why do some have plenty, and others have nothing?
* In the books which I have read, of course.
** Shevek would surely disapprove: "He was appalled by the examination system, when it was explained to him; he could not imagine a greater deterrent to the natural wish to learn than this pattern of cramming in information and disgorging it at demand."
*** I have been told by left-wing friends that my views seem most akin to anarchism, in that I believe order should be based on mutual consent and respect, that authority should be earned through experience, and my general opposition to government, although this latter is partly down to the lack of a party in this country that I would consider supporting.

So when a friend form one of the design showrooms here told me she just bought some bedding, and that her color palette was coming together, and I showed her a headboard she loved that came in chartreuse and purple--her colors, along with black and white--well, a post was born.
I totally love this. Feels a little Vivian Westwood with the plaid blanket, anglophile portrait pillow, and graphic black and white. Also kind of makes me think of another blogger with a very distinctive style.
And this one feels more "me," like if I was taking the existing shams and those little footstools and making them work for me. It appears I am obsesses with those Ikea sconces, too, which keep making their way into my boards!

There was an awkward moment during the exhibition match between Stephen Hendry and Ken Doherty, laid on for fans after early finishes on the Monday night of the second week in the matches featuring Ronnie O'Sullivan and Matthew Stevens, and Neil Robertson and Ali Carter.
Near the start someone shouted out from the crowd "Where's Michaela?", an obvious reference to the former leading and popular tour referee who resigned earlier this year for reasons that have still not been fully explained, but is believed to have involved an initial dispute over an unpaid bonus that was argued to be discretionary by her former employers World Snooker.
These exhibitions, this one refereed by Marcel Eckardt, are normally wise-cracking affairs, but the moment very briefly triggered an uncomfortable silence even from MC Dennis Taylor with leading World Snooker figures in the audience. Until the Scot decides to tell her side, people will be left guessing to some extent as to the precise nature of the split. It could be that she will sell her story for big money exclusively to a Scottish newspaper, or there may even be further developments in the pipeline. Equally there may be some confidentiality agreement in place and what is clear is that it is almost a taboo subject, and the circumstances surrounding Tabb's departure are a cause for awkwardness for officials.
Whichever is the case, Tabb has been a miss at this year's World Championship, and did a huge amount promoting snooker in her time refereeing on the main tour, as well as serving as an inspiration to many of the women referees now coming through.

Conor may appear to be a freak of nature athlete but his greatest strength is hands down his mind. Paired with that supreme calm, he uses extensive visualization and film study to understand his opponent, to feel their timing, their rhythm, to feel the core of who they are before the fight even begins. He doesn't have a fixed method of how he should attack as he's always learning and growing. He just keeps going with his body and mind until his organic, constantly evolving style becomes a clean counter to his opponent.
Check out this video from MindSmash explaining in detail why he thinks Conor has much more than a punchers chance against Mayweather.
There were a few more factors I could've gone more in-depth in but I think that is more than enough to convey my point. I believe Floyd would absolutely destroy Conor if Conor was who he was when he won two weight divisions in the UFC as Floyd is simply put one of the best boxers on the planet right now so it's an obvious outcome, but when you give Conor time, that's when he becomes very dangerous. It's not that Conor is bigger, younger, is a southpaw, it's not even the fact Conor has devastating 1 punch KO power. Conor is an adaptable machine, who as John Kavanagh would put it, works even when he's sleeping. He is an eternal student with an inhuman level of confidence no trash talk in the world can cave… I don't think Floyd should underestimate Conor at all…
McGregor has made too many people he's fought look amateurish with few exceptions, and really, the more time you give him to study you, the more dangerous he becomes. His hardest fights have been with Chad Mendez and Nate Diaz probably partly due to the short notice resulting in less time to visualize and study them.
There's too much footage and too much time for Conor McGregor to not to be a threat to Floyd.

It's already that time, for another round of Confidence Workshop Teacher's Blog Circle! Last month was my first time participating in the blog circle, and I just loved it! I loved seeing how each teacher interpreted "transition" differently, what it meant for each one of them. I can't wait to read them this month! Comfort. This word can take so many forms for me. It is not only something that you can seek from objects- comfort food, comfortable clothes, comfy blankie - but is something you can find in people. Both of my children find comfort in their daddy. Sawyer finds comfort high atop her father's shoulders. It doesn't matter that she's high off the ground and can fall. She doesn't even hold on for support. She find full comfort in him.
Recently, Milo wanted to try using the "big boy swing" at our house. He, like his sister, finds comfort knowing his father is there to support him.
And, what about me? I find comfort in my family and friends. Life with two young children is quite the adventure. But with all of the challenges come some pretty amazing moments and that brings me comfort in times of struggle (like the middle of the night with a crying baby). Like my children, I find comfort in my husband's presence. As I look to the future and walk along the path of today, I know that I have him by my side. (This beautiful family photo was taken by Miss Freddy!)
Finally, I find comfort in the other CONFIDENCE workshop teachers. (I wish I had a photo of all of us). This weekend is my first workshop (yippee!), and these women have been amazing in offering support, encouragement, and ideas. It is like having 19 sisters who are there to cheer you on and give you hugs whenever you need it. That brings me tremendous comfort as I officially start this new journey on Saturday!
Head on over to the talented, Amy Rhodes' blog to see her interpretation of "Comfort."

Northwest Berries
The only way to truly know what a fruit or vegetable tastes like is to try it fresh and ripe. Moving to the Northwest has given me the opportunity to try other fresh fruits and vegetables. Some new favorites are raspberries and blueberries.
In fact, I like blueberries so much, I planted some in my backyard. Before moving here, I would have describe blueberries as floral or green; maybe even watery. Blueberries are a touch more complex when picked ripe. They have a nice full sweetness, a touch of a floral character, some seedy notes, nice juiciness and a subtle tartness.
My Impression
The SoBe lifewater black & blueberry has an excellent flavor. It is distinctly blueberry with a nice juicy, sweet, seedy and full character. The flavor in SoBe reminds me of fresh blueberry pie filling. From the label (with other natural flavors) and the taste, it is evident blueberry and blackberry flavor extracted from the named fruits are added.
There is a very slight bitter aftertaste, but not enough to influence my opinion negatively. The sweetness and tartness level of this lifewater are perfect and the slight cooling sensation is refreshing. I love this beverage and will be purchasing it again. SoBe provided us the best 0 calorie, all natural and vitamin enhanced beverage I have tasted. I'm in awe!
Some other reviews I read indicated that SoBe black & blueberry tasted like grape, but I disagree. Most reviews were very favorable, however, some questioned why this beverage has 6 grams of carbohydrates and 0 calories. The reason for this is Erythritol ( a natural polyol) http://www.caloriecontrol.org/sweeteners-and-lite/polyols/erythritol. Often, to improve taste, Erythritol is used synergistically with Reb A. Erthythitol is a carbohydrate but does not provide the standard 4 cal/gram like sugar.

I love to leave comments on other blogs and 99% of the time they are simply adding to the discussion, providing positive encouragement, or asking a question. I try to avoid "getting into it" with other readers who leave comments because 1) it's usually futile, and 2) there's just not enough time in the day.
But once in a while a comment gets my attention and I can't resist. This happened the other day over on my friend Danny's blog – FirePole Marketing where the question was posed: should blogs charge for guest posts? Would you pay to guest post?
A lot of comments were left but one in particular caught my attention and ended up in several exchanges. The text of that thread is below. After you read it, leave a comment and let me know:
- What do you think about big blogs that charge for guests posts?
- Would you pay someone to let you guest post?
- What is your opinion of the discussion below?
I'm a big boy… if you disagree with me, tell me why.

No. And I would stop reading any blog that did this.
Such a tactic screams of money-grubbing-self-important-too-big-for-their-britches bloggers.
Blogging and writing needs more honesty and humility, so that people who make it to the top of the pile actually help those who are trying to climb up, rather than come up with schemes to get rich off of all the "little people."

No, such a "tactic" screams of someone who owns their own blog and has the freedom to do with it as they please.
If they have worked their butts off for years, built up an audience, and choose to charge for guest posts, it's only the "little people" (little in free market and business intelligence) that jump to arguments of class warfare and call them egotistical and greedy for choosing to do what THEY want with THEIR blog. When a blog reaches a certain size and status, it becomes a product and commodity in and of itself, a result of hard work, commitment, and sacrifice.
If you want to create a successful blog solely for altruism and not business, go for it. That's your freedom. Best wishes to you. But if a successful blogger decides they want to charge for guest posts (which is simply now a product they offer) it serves two purposes: 1) they profit from THEIR hard work and perseverance, and 2) they will typically get people who are willing to invest in their blogging success. It is typical class-warfare nonsense to say they climbed to the top on the backs of the little people.
Who built the blog? Who did the hard work? Who made the sacrifice? You want to benefit from their blood, sweat, and tears by getting FREE guest posts, but HOW DARE THEY want to benefit from their years of hard work! That kind of thinking truly is little. No matter what thing you charge for on your blog, including guests posts, it is up to that blog owner to make sure they are willing to accept payment only for that which is high quality, relevant, and valuable to their audience. If they turn their blog into a "pay to play" to the detriment of quality and integrity, they will quickly lose audience. If it is a "pay to play" blog that results in even more and better content/products, do you think the audience will cry "greed"? Hardly. They'll be clamoring to learn the secrets of the success.
It is the freedom and choice of the successful blogger to decide if they want to charge for guest posts. It is the freedom and choice of the guest-post submitter to determine if they want to pay. It is the freedom and choice of the blog audience to read it or not. Who gets to choose which of those three don't get that freedom? It's called the free market, a concept that is getting buried today in class warfare. Today the simple process of doing honest business and choosing what to do with YOUR OWN BLOG is a "scheme" against "little people." Ridiculous.
I can prove the hypocrisy of most nay-sayers on this topic: if you could pay $100 to guest post tomorrow on CopyBlogger or Seth Godin, would you do it? That's what I thought.

I agree with you, Brent.
As long as the blog owner continues to pursue quality content and refuse trash, what's the problem? It is the joy of the free market. I think the complaints boil down to jealosy. If they're not in the position to charge or to pay, some people choose to attack. I believe in supporting the success of other writers. We all benefit in the end.

Jeremy wrote:
Would I pay $100 to guest post on CopyBlogger or Seth Godin? Absolutely not. I wouldn't pay $10. I wouldn't pay anything. So, no hypocrisy here.

Brent Riggs wrote:
I propose that someone who would not pay $10 to guest post on Seth Godin's blog or Copyblogger is not serious about their own blog for ANY reason, altruistic or monetary.
If you are trying to change the world, leave a legacy, or influence humanity with your writing and ideas, why would you pass up paying $10 to reach hundreds of thousands of people? I call B.S. on that… or, you don't really care about making a difference.
Either way, there is no high-road reason that passes muster in this situation. It's just an emotional feel-good argument. If you did truly care about making a difference, $10 or $100 or even a thousand would be worth reaching hundreds of thousands of people with your inspiration. We aren't talking about Larry Flynt's blog… we're talking about honorable and decent bloggers.

Jeremy wrote:
Brent, It is very strange. You say that bloggers should be able to do whatever they want with their own blogs, but when I suggest that I have a different strategy and approach than yours and so would not pay money for a guest post, I get blasted for being hypocritical and full of BS? Really?

I said I called B.S. on THE POINT YOU MADE. And I do for the reasons stated and I stand by it.
We aren't children. Don't exaggerate what I said to make it sound personal when I addressed the POINT you made, not you personally. I'm sure you are fine person and good guy.
When did we lose the ability to have a healthy discussion without it getting personal or defensive? This post is debating two positions. I'm addressing your POSITION, not your character.

Jeremy wrote:
I am not taking it personally. I am defending my point. It's not BS or hypocritical. It is my blogging strategy.
I would never pay any blogger, no matter how much traffic it might get me, to publish anything of mine. If others want to do that, fine. But it is not MY strategy, and therefore, is not BS or hypocritical. And as it turns out, my blog is doing just fine, by the way. Is it perfect? No. Do I hope to get more readers? Of course. Am I doing what I can to expand my audience? You bet. But one thing I have never done and will never do, is pay for a Guest Post.
Even if it was only $10 for a post with Seth Godin. These are my principles and values, and I stand by them. What I might do is PAY someone to write a Guest Post as Cindy Brown suggested in the comments below. That sounds like my kind of blogger! That sort of approach reveals a spirit of generosity and humility that I like to see in the bloggers I read and follow.

Luca Faloni and The Luxury Cashmere Hoodie
Luca Faloni focuses on elegant designs that never go out of fashion and the ever popular Luca Faloni Cashmere Hoodie is a perfect expression of this.
Like the hoodie, which has evolved its style and cultural associations over time, Luca Faloni regularly adds material and styling twists to its designs in response to consumer demand. These timeless designs combine Italian heritage and craftsmanship with contemporary styling and fit to cater for the everyday adventures of today's modern man.
This contemporary garment has become a sartorial classic. Logos and badges have been removed and focus on quality materials is brought to the forefront. The Luca Faloni Hoodie is knitted in Italy with 100% two ply cashmere. Its refined silhouette is the result of removing bulky pockets and substituting the zip for elegant buttons.

I have been careful observing how the January transfer window has been making headlines as players transfer from different teams.
As always the last day of the transfer window was trending under the hashtag #deadlineday. Broadcast channels had hours of broadcast dedicated to the last day of the transfer window. To keep the fans updated about the last minute transfers.
Some of our South African journalists camped at the Premier Soccer League Offices in order to witness and report on the latest transfers.
As always it was the male transfers that attracted more attention from journalists and fans.
A few would be even aware of the three-time African Women's footballer of the year Asisat Oshoala, a Nigeria international who joined Spanish giants Barcelona on loan from Chinese Women's Super League side Dalian Quanjian F.C
Because she simply was not trending as her make counterparts.
This again raises a lot of questions about gender in inequality in the sport industry.
Just like Martin Luther King, Jr. I have a dream. However my dream is about women in sport.
I have a dream that one day women athletes will be recognised as males, earn the same wages as male athletes, get the same broadcast opportunities as male athletes, and finally a dream for female sport to get the same support as males.
We got a long way to go to achieve this but it is not an impossible dream. We can all play a part in supporting women in sport.

I suspect you've heard the expression "losing the forest for the tree." The sentiment is that we lose sight of the big picture and end up overly focused on some smaller portion of the big picture.
In reality, I think many of us are expected to navigate and bounce back and forth between the big picture and some detailed aspect of the larger vision. That's probably not the issue.
But how many times do you see someone lose sight of the big picture or the detailed picture for a squirrel (aka a distraction)? Your boss' priorities rapidly change based on some directive from above, some industry magazine, or some operational concern. When we lose site of our direction (big picture or little) and direct our attention elsewhere we are at much greater risk for missing out on progress.
Strategic planning is a great thing when followed by deliberate action over time. Changing the plan is even a good thing upon reflection and as a function of course correction. Changing the plan every 10 days isn't agility, it's immaturity and runs the risk of progress looking like wandering around.
Don't make omniscience the requirement for your planning, but also don't let what you read during a break in the coffee room completely alter your plans. Remember, deliberate action over time wins the race.

The Biggest Decorating Don'ts
Don't let these dead giveaways reveal that you aren't a savvy decorator. Design with confidence by avoiding our biggest decorating don'ts.
Whether you're a seasoned design pro or you're trying to tackle a new home or room for the very first time, there is a lot to keep in mind when pulling together the perfect space. From patterns, textures, and lighting to colors, pillows, and art (and all of the details in between), it's easy to accidently make a decorating decision that might be a dead giveaway that you're not such a solid decorator after all. But don't you worry. We've got your back. To help you create a polished, confident design that shows off your personality while following simple design standards, we've pulled together a list of the biggest decorating don'ts to keep in mind during every step of your design process. Take a look to know exactly what to avoid and find some foolproof formulas for designing right. Before you know it, your friends will be asking you for your expert design advice.
Badly Hung Art
Make sure that all of your art (unless you're doing a gallery wall) hangs at eye level rather than too low or too high on your wall. You want to make sure that your guests are not craning their necks to see the beautiful paintings in your home. Not sure if you've got it in the right spot? It never hurts to get a second opinion.
Floating Rugs
Proper area rugs need to ground a room and should fill the whole floor leaving a one-foot border around all four walls. All the room's furniture should fit on an area rug. Sisal and sea grass are great area rugs and look even better when layered with colorful or threadbare rugs on top.
Color by Numbers Decorating
Using color can be intimidating, but the rule of thumb is to use at least three colors – one anchor and two accent shades. The anchor, typically a neutral, gives you a canvas to work with while your accent shades are brighter, more contrasting colors with personality. This will give you rooms with depth and interest instead of a flat, two-color room.
Done-in-a-Day Room
Decorating isn't a one-stop shop process. You want rooms that feel collected rather than purchased. To do this, you'll need to get a mix of furniture with different style and a variety of finishes rather than a matching suite of furniture. Finding these unique pieces and creating your own décor collection takes time, so don't try to tackle it all in just one shopping trip.
Too Much Leg
When placing your furniture, step back and take a look at the room from the ground level. If all you're seeing are wooden legs, you'll need to add in some softness with either a table skirt or skirted chairs or sofas. This will give the space some much-needed balance.
Hiding Your Personality
Your home should reflect you and your family's interests. Layer your rooms with books you read and accessorize (artfully) with souvenirs from travels or objects that you adore. Sprinkle some family photos around in nice frames to really make your home a reflection of the love shared within its walls.
Taking Up All the Oxygen in the Room
Knowing how to edit a space is just as important as knowing what to put into a room. Everyone talks all about the "mix," but the best way to keep your mix from overwhelming or clashing is to leave plenty of white space to balance out the statement pieces and patterns in a room.
Puny Pillows
If you've wisely invested in a neutral sofa or chairs, the easiest way to punch them up is with patterned pillows. However, you'll need to spend the extra time playing with your pillows to scale them with the sofa so they'll stand out. If you have the extra dime, splurge on down-fill rather than poly. They are more comfortable for you and rest better on furniture.
Flat Skylines
Don't limit your room's design with pieces that are all the same (or similar) size. For some visual variety, vary the heights of your furniture pieces to heighten a room's interest. You'll need to add height with case goods like a secretary, attractive table lamps, and artwork to keep eyes roving.
Bedding in a Bag
Let's leave the bedding in a bag set back in your college dorm room. Instead, invest in comfy and classic white basics: sheeting; two white euro shams; a white bed skirt; and a white duvet cover. Spice up the all-white look with a brightly patterned coverlet and pillow (or two).

a month of thanksgiving
November is such a beautiful month! I love the cooler weather, brilliant blue skies, and golden everything. I love the cool, wet days where we stay inside and feel cozy. This year I've been working on incorporating learning projects and traditions to help us celebrate Thanksgiving, and it has been wonderful! I feel like sometimes Thanksgiving is overlooked, and I want it to be something special in our home.
Above all, I want my children to grow seeing and feeling God's hand in all things.
Here are some things we've done and are doing this year:
We've been reading The Mayflower This books shares some great detail about the voyage the Pilgrims made--filled with difficulty. I learned much from reading it! And it has great photographs. We painted the Mayflower and the storms they went through to arrive in the Americas. Their voyage and their lives were filled with difficulty, but they were able to do it because they knew God was leading them.
Do you know your family roots and your family stories? I think November is a great month to look at family history. My sixth great grandfather is Governor Thomas Dudley (second governor of Massachusetts). I loved reading stories about him. He was a man of faith and service! Regardless of your lineage, I feel like there's so much joy in learning of their challenges, triumphs, and lives. Many of our ancestors sacrificed much to provide greater opportunities for us (their posterity). Knowing your roots can provide a great opportunity to be thankful for what those who have gone before did out of love and faith, and I feel it's so important for children to hear those stories. We had a great talk with our boys about this, and it's something I want to continue as they grow. I'm also planning a simple art project for them with this.
I love The Small Seed's Give with Thanks daily service challenge. What better way to help children feel God's love than to serve others?!
We had a great time preparing some of the foods that people ate on the first Thanksgiving for dinner one night. Matthew was shocked they didn't eat pumpkin pie (his favorite).
I came across this story of Squanto that I love. It articulates so well that God's hand is in all things, including the founding of America. I love how it talks about God making something good out of a difficult thing (I think we all face that one way or another) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WbDF5l_qOMI
We loved reading the book Sarah Gives Thanks. It is the story of Sarah Josepha Hale who dedicated her life to make Thanksgiving a National holiday--inspiring for many reasons.
And a fun book my boys loved because they both adore firetrucks, A Firefighters' Thanksgiving
Also, I love to incorporate art into almost everything we do. I believe expressing something creatively provides a great opportunity to really internalize whatever we're learning. Plus, I believe we all need to take time to create regularly! Children of all ages create beautifully. My 21 month old loves using many different mediums and takes pride in his work (aren't children amazing)?!
I would love to hear any ideas from you on how you make November/Thanksgiving a meaningful experience in your home.
