If there is one thing to learn from Ted Kennedy it's this:
When your wife is pregnant and you're out at an extremely remote location with the boys and a few willing chicks who can keep a secret even if one of them gets sort of drowned, make sure the guy pals are mostly lawyers.
Works every time, if you are a liberal Democrat from Massachusetts with a wealthy family the press treats like royalty.
I measure Ted this way. Forget the hype about the US Senate that was just another playground tossed like a bone to this scoundrel.
Here is who Ted Kennedy was:
Ted has a driver who he tells to stay put with the young "ladies" they all hoped to entertain as Ted himself offers to drive one home. She leaves her purse and keys at the hideaway.
He is noticed behind the wheel, pulled over, lights out, with the girl a few minutes later by a local cop on this small island. As the cop walks up to see what is going on Ted speeds off. (Ever try driving with your pants around your ankles?)
The cop, just left in the dust as he walked up to Teddy's limo just goes about his business as any cop would who was inspecting a suspicious car and was driven away from by a wheel spinning driver late at night. (Typical police work.)
Kerplunk into Pucha Pond and now the real story begins.
Ted Kennedy was just another politician cheating on his pregnant wife until this point.
He gets out of the car. She doesn't. Now she is a liability to the predetermined political career of liberal royalty.
Ted Kennedy left a 28 year old plaything to drown and everyone knows it.
It was nine hours until he called police and that was only because he saw the police dredging up his car. Local fishermen found the now dead girl who may have spent a few hours under water waiting for our hero to call someone with a conscience.
Nine hours is enough for the booze to wear off.
Ted did not call rescue or police. He did call motel employees to complain about a loud party when he was trying to sleep after he drowned the girl.
He made 17 other calls before he was caught.
The lawyers Teddy was partying with did not call police nor did they tell the other party girls one of them was dead. That would be a mood breaker.
Family and local connections (enablers) went into high panic and developed statements and a plan for Ted to escape prosecution for anything meaningful like involuntary manslaughter.
Ted Kennedy walked away totally free in conscience and body to lead a long career growing government while showering low life voters with gifts from other people's taxes.
The extra girls at the party never talked, the parents took the cash, the Camelot Klan stood by him, everyone involved has meaningful employment and no one involved ever wrote a serious book.
The judge who let Ted off said at the trial:
He "has already been, and will continue to be punished far beyond anything this court can impose".

What would cause a dull pain in the arch and top of the side of the foot while walking, but not standing in one spot? And only on one foot? No injury has occured, and no swelling aparent?
Pain in the arch is often caused by an inflammation of the big plantar fascia tendon that runs from the heels to the toes in a condition called plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis is usually caused by 'micro-injuries' ie small injuries that you not notice which occur over time.
Stretching exercises, anti-inflammatories, ice and rest (and elevating your feet), inserts in your shoes, using shoes that provide enough cushion and fit well may be able to help.
If those don't work then a trip to the podiatrist is in order. A case of quite painful plantar fasciitis cleared up for me with inserts a podiatrist ordered for me. Good luck!

A couple days later, Greg called and said that they would like to start their training on Saturday. I asked what time and after he told me I said that Id meet them at the gate.
"Well, Mike, I was thinking that I might get there an hour or so earlier and go over with you what we'd be doing. I can come to your place, then when time, we can go to the burn site."
"Sure, Greg, just press the buzzer and I'll let you in."
He had said that the fire crew would be arriving shortly after nine, but Saturday morning at seven the buzzer sounded.
"Greg?" I asked after pressing the talk button.
"Yea," he replied.
I buzzed him in and quickly slipped on a pair of shorts. I walked out onto the porch just as he pulled to a stop. "Morning," I said.
"Morning," he replied as he stepped out of his car. "I hope I'm not to early?"
"Not at all. Living out here, I usually wake up about sunrise. It's a beautiful sight."
"I'm sure it is," he replied. "I'd love to see it sometime," he added smiling and looking me over. "Man, you've got quite a physique."
"Thanks. I get to the gym in town when I can. In between, I work out here on my own equipment."
"You are one lucky guy to have a place like this."
"How about a cup of coffee and I'll show you around."
"Perfect," he said as I eyed his slowly rising crotch.
We went in and after he had a cup of coffee in his hand, I began the tour. The last thing on the tour was my master bedroom with the large doors going out on the porch in back.
"Fuck, this is awesome. What a fantastic view from here. You can just hop out of bed and head straight outside, dressed or not."
"Greg, I do just that almost every morning. It's great."
All during our tour, I noticed the bulge in his pants grow. Then, there on the back porch, he stepped closer to me and let his hand dangle by his side. Slowly he eased closer to me until his hand was ever so gently pressing against my cock. I immediately began to become more erect than I already was.
As my cock got harder, his hand pressed against me with more force.
As he continued to press his hand against my now rock hard cock, I looked at him and said, "Greg, if you want it, ask for it like a man. Don't scratch for it like a dog."
"Well, then, may I have the pleasure of servicing you?"
"It's all yours," I said. I knew then that the times he had winked at me he was indeed sending a signal.
He slid to his knees and began opening my shorts and letting them fall to the floor.
"Fucking nice,"he said before swallowing all eight inches. He definitely knew what he was doing and it didn't take long for him to be ring me to my climax. After swallowing every drop he stood and said, "Damn, that was way better that Paul said it was."
"Oh, so you talked to Paul, huh?"
"Uh, yea. We've been close friends for years."
"Well then, why all the playing around if you knew I played?"
"It added to the excitement."
"I see," I said as I reached out and grabbed his crotch. "Now it's my turn."
I dropped and opened his uniform pants and let them fall before swallowing his hard tool. i soon brought him to his climax and after swallowing, I stood and said, "I think I might like having your crew training out here."
"I'm sure you will," he replied. "And after our training today, I think I'll come back by and go over a possible future schedule."
"Perfect," I answered.
Looking into his eyes, I leaned forward and kissed him, immediately offering my tongue. He instantly responded by offering his.
After a long kiss, I said, "I think I'll be looking forward to our meeting later.
"Same here," he said with a smile.
We went in and talked and he told me the plans for the day. They were going to do a burn on three of the closer cabins. Greg said that the day after the burns, they would have a crew come in and completely clear the burned debris out.
I was getting my property cleared and at no monetary cost to me. I was pleased with the results.
As talked, I casually asked if there were any others with the fire department that played.
"Mike, you'd be surprised. We are a small department,and nearly three-fourths of the men are into getting sucked. Probably half of those suck in return. It is all kept very much on the down low. If it got out, there would be a lot of divorces and guys loosing their jobs."
"Well, I've never outed a guy yet and never plan to. All your secrets are safe with me."
I knew then what I had to do and decided to put my plan into action before the next burn.
We met the crew at the gate and let them in. I sat back and watched as one then another building was set ablaze. After it was burning good the men went into action. By late afternoon, all three buildings were destroyed and in ashes. With the last of the embers out, the men packed up and left. All during the day, I tried to see if I could tell which of the men might play.
Greg came back to my place and we went over the future burns. I told him I wanted them to start the future burns with the farthest away and work their way to the first burns. He agreed and asked why.
"You'll see when we meet before the next burn." I said.
After our talk, we quickly ended up in bed with Greg asking me to fuck him. I did gladly and found he was a loud and vocal receiver. That only turned me on more. He spent the night with me and he got his wish of seeing the sunrise while sitting on the porch nude.
On Sunday, a dozer was there to clear the property and load the remains into dump trucks to be hauled off.
First thing Monday, I started putting my plan in action.
By their next burn, I was ready. I had had a site set up so that I could bring in a large camping trailer near the site of the first burn. There was electricity and sewage hookups. I had stocked the refrigerator in the trailer with nothing but bottled water. I met with Greg and told him that if the men needed water to send them to me.
"If they play and want a blow job, let them know that once inside to just unzip and take out their cock. If they don't take it out, I won't do anything."
"Perfect," he replied.
The second burn started and I remained at the trailer. After a short while, two guys in their mid-twenties pulled up in a department pickup.
"We understand you have water for us."
"Sure do," I replied. "Come on inside."
I led the way and as they followed me in, I headed for the fridge. As I turned around to hand them their water, I saw that both their hard cocks were out of their pants.
I handed them their water and dropped to my knees, sucking one dry then the other. They thanked me and smiled before returning to the pickup. I knew this was going to be a great day.
At the days end, I had swallowed fourteen loads of cum. Four of those loads came from guys that came by twice to get sucked.
The same process was repeated with every burn and with each burn, the number of men coming in to get their cocks sucked increased, many wearing wedding bands. I was surprised at the number of married men that wanted to suck me in return. Of course, I let them.
After three months all the buildings were cleared. Greg and several of the firemen would stop by and 'visit' from time to time, as would Carl, my lawyer and Paul, the guy that worked with the charity organization. I was getting cock frequently but still wanted more.
I found out from Paul, where the guys in town went to find other guys or sex. It was an older truck stop out on the edge of town with two toilets and a big glory hole. Not only did I get to suck a lot of locals, but also numerous truckers.
I soon decided what to do with the property. On my own, I sketched out what I wanted.
There were to be twelve cabins, each with a living room, kitchen and dining area, bedroom and bath. Each cabin would have a porch completely circling the cabin. There would also be a large pool and recreation building containing a work out room, pool tables, jukebox and dance floor, tables and chairs and a snack bar. It would be situated with half the cabins on each side.
With Carl's help I found a contractor to do the work. Carl worked up the papers and took care of all the permits.
The contractor was Luke Thomas, a thirty year old divorced ex-Marine. He was also gay.
I let Luke live in the camper during construction and of course he and I had sex frequently after the work crew had left for the day. Many nights, either I would stay the night with him in the camper or he would stay with me in the house.
After six months, the construction was complete and the cabins were ready to rent. No notice was put out. The only renters I wanted were gay or bi men. Nudity was the standard dress code and sex was allowed anywhere two men wanted to have it.
Word spread by word of mouth and soon I was booked for several months in advance. I cleared the former road between the house and the camp grounds and wuld visit my guest daily, always arriving nude.
Greg was my first and only guest the first weekend I opened. I stayed with him there and we grew closer. He put out my fire many nights.
I did find property for my former boss on the other side of town. He came to see it and I broke my main rule. He was straight and yet invited him to stay at the house with me.
On the second morning he was there, I awoke to find him gone although his things were in his room. I had seven of the cabins rented and prayed he hadn't gone there.
As I stepped out onto the porch to look for him I saw him walking toward me on the road from the cabins. My heart raced, not knowing what his reaction would be.
As he approached me, our eyes met and he stared at me.
Stepping up to me on the porch, he said, "Mike, it's quite a place you have here. Your guest are really nice and friendly."
I didn't know what to say. I just stood looking at him. Suddenly, he leaned closer and kissed me. I was in total shock when he offered his tongue.
After a short kiss, he said, "I sure wish I had known you were gay when you worked for me. I wanted you the entire time."
"Mike, I'm gay also."
"You're shitting me," I said.
"No, I'm not," he replied as he grabbed my crotch. Without hesitation, he extracted my cock there on the porch and began sucking me hungrily. Soon, I gave him what he had worked for and he eagerly swallowed. Of course, I immediately returned the pleasure to him.
Afterward, he we talked and he said that he had several drivers, both married and single that enjoyed male sex.
"Mike, if your willing, I'll pay to have a truck lot put in out of sight from the road and will keep two cabins rented year round for the drivers to stay in when they come through here. I'll only tell the drivers that play."
"You got a deal, I said quickly.
He opened a terminal on the property I had found and rented cabins one and two, paying a year in advance. Of course, I gave him a special discount.
Soon, I began getting calls from the drivers. I also began having sex with them. My business soon had paid for itself and I was making money.
Greg was soon staying with me more than he was staying at his apartment in town when he was off. However, he never knew when he might get a call to fight a fire and being as far out as I was, it made it hard on him. He began looking for another job and found one with a manufacturing plant several miles from my place as their fire and safety director. He began working Monday through Friday from eight to five.
I soon asked him to move in with me and be my lover. There was just one stipulation. We were to have an open relationship, both free to have sex with others but it was agreed that neither would spend the night with another guy unless we were in a three way.
He agreed and our wonderful life together began. We would visit the cabins and we each enjoyed watching the other have sex with another hot guy, especially the truckers that stayed there.
Although I never knew my grandfather, I owe him a lot. He must have been one special guy.

You can enable users to reset their passwords in case they forgot them. Users receive an email message with a new password.
PREREQUISITES: To enable Sitefinity CMS to send e-mails, you must have configured the SMTP settings. For more information, see Administration: Configure SMTP settings.
When working with forms-based authentication, you can configure password retrieval, so that users who forgot their passwords can receive them in an email message.
NOTE: If you are working with claims-based authentication, you cannot configure password retrieval.
PREREQUISITES: To enable Sitefinity CMS to send e-mails, you must have configured the SMTP settings. For more information, see Administration: Configure SMTP settings.
To configure password retrieval:
IMPORTANT: If you are using a custom membership provider inheriting from the ASP.NET membership provider (MembershipDataProvider class), the recoveryMailAddress is returned as String.Empty, indicating that the user password cannot be reset. To resolve this issue, specify recoveryMailAddress in the appSettings node in web.config:
var recoveryMailAddress = manager.RecoveryMailAddress;
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(recoveryMailAddress))
recoveryMailAddress = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings[this.MembershipProvider + "_RecoveryMailAddress"];
recoveryMailAddress = string.Empty;
IMPORTANT: You must not set the enablePasswordRetrieval property to true when the enablePasswordReset is also set to true. The defaultpasswordFormat for the default membership provider is Hashed. Since hashed passwords cannot be retrieved, Sitefinity CMS has to reset the password and send a new one. If you want to retrieve the current password, you must set the passwordFormat Encrypted or Clear.

Starting with version 1.2.0 it is possible to embed sketchometry in web pages like learning management systems or content management systems. The preferred way to do this is to use an iframe and control sketchometry from the hosting web site with postMessage.
Let's suppose that sketchometry is embedded in the web page in an iframe with id
sketchometry. Then, the hosting web page is communicating with the sub-object
contentWindow of the iframe's DOM node:
1 var skm = document.getElementById("sketchometry").contentWindow;
2 skm.postMessage({'code': 'init'}, URL);
the variable
URL contains the URL where sketchometry is loaded from. Here, one can use either
https://embed.sketchometry.org or download the zip file containing sketchometry and put it on a dedicated web server.
The only situation where sketchometry sends a message back to the hosting web page is after a
save message.
Before the hosting web site can receive postMessages from an iframe an eventhandler for the event
message has to be customized. Examples:
1 var receiveMessage = function(evt) {
2 var content;
4 if (evt.origin !== "https://embed.sketchometry.org") {
5 console.log("REJECT", evt.origin)
6 return;
7 }
9 if (evt.data.code === 'save') {
10 content = evt.data.data;
12 // Write construction contained in content to database
13 console.log("RECEIVED", content);
14 }
15 };
17 window.addEventListener("message", receiveMessage, false);
But first, the saving of a construction has to be triggered by a
save message:
1 skm.postMessage({'code': 'save'}, URL);
{'code': 'init'}: Prepare embedded version of sketchometry
{'code': 'load', 'data': construction string}: Load base64 encoded sketch string
{'code': 'new', 'name': 'construction name'}: Open new construction
{'code': 'save'}: get the actual construction as base64 encoded sketch string.
sketchometry will send a postMessage to the hosting web page of the form
{'code': 'save', 'data': content}
{'code': 'set', 'data': {settingId': 'key', 'value': val}}: Change settings, see settings.js.
{'code': 'set', 'data': {'settingId': 'language', 'value': 'de'}
{'code': 'clear'}: Removes all constructions from local storage.
Here is an example of a hosting web page which enables the control of sketchometry by buttons:
1
2 <title>embed sketchometry</title>
3
62
63
This is a web page containing sketchometry

64

68 <button onClick="showCircle();">Load construction</button>

70 <button onClick="save();">Save construction</button>

72 <button onClick="setLang('en');">Choose language "English"</button>

Ever had someone try to get you to act like you used to back in the day?
Nobody can MAKE you act any particular way, but you know what I mean: your interaction with them led to you respond in a way that you thought you had put behind you. It made you do the roar, a la Shrek.
My boy Shrek thought he was post-roar. Boy, was he surprised at his own response!
So was I when I found myself shouting at someone in impatience, exasperation, and exhaustion a few days ago.
I did my own roar. *hangs head in shame*
Reverting to our "old self"
As Christians, we we've crossed from death to life. We're new wineskins filled with new wine; a new creation; seated in heavenly places. Our old way of living is just that… old. Past. History.
But that old-past-history often is just a few aggravations away from showing its behind to the world and making us question who we really are.
Enter the roar
I used to joke with friends that I was going to keep a can opener on my desk at work in case I had to open a can of whoop-ass on someone. So much for the fruit of the Spirit, especially patience. The roar is often most symptomatic of a lack of patience with either people or circumstances. Like Shrek, when we're at the end of our tether, we simply let it rip.
The roar reveals what we used to be: habits, mindsets, language, attitudes, and actions that were our modus operandi pre-Christ.
At the time, it does feel good to let that roar barrel its way through and onto whoever's in its path. But a little later on, most of us regret it. We did not give good face, or grace, to the person on the receiving end of our roar.
Is roaring ever really needed?
Is it that we no longer need to do the roar? I mean, Jesus roared in the temple, overturning tables and messing with those guys' hustle. But His was a holy, righteous roar. I suspect most of our roars are far removed from His. 😀
The devil sees our weaknesses and lies in wait, ready to clobber us about the head and shoulders with our propensity to "wild out," disrespecting others and ourselves by our choices. Sometimes I act like I've forgotten that I've had work done; spiritual work, that is. I act like "Girl Interrupted,"when I'm simply "girl in progress."
When I feel ready to drop-kick the world, I probably need a tall glass of "sit the heck down." I'm glad that the Holy Spirit helps me dial back the urge to indulge in industrial strength tomfoolery when I let His gentle wisdom guide me to shut the heck up. That's what the fruit of the Spirit can do!
So, are you someone who roars? What's your personal reason to roar? Is it worth it?

Polaroid has officially announced its new Android-based camera called the iM1836. It would be recalled that a leak regarding the device surfaced from a Russian social media website last December. Said leak revealed many of the camera's purported specifications. Polaroid's announcement at Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2013 in Las Vegas confirms that many of the leaked details are accurate.
According to Polaroid, the iM1836 is "the first Android-powered interchangeable lens 'smart' camera." It boasts of a 10-30mm optical zoom lens and Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operating system. Users may also try all other Micro Four Thirds system lenses on the camera, as these have been confirmed to be compatible with the device with the help of an optional adapter.
The camera also packs a 3.5-inch capacitive touchscreen LCD. Engadet notes that this is considerably smaller than the Samsung Galaxy Camera's 4.8-inch display panel.
Among the features of the Polaroid iM1836 are auto blink detection, auto face exposure, pop-up flash, and a wide-angle panoramic shooting mode. The camera likewise records 1080p HD video. Videos or images captured through the Polaroid iM1836 may be viewed on an HDTV via a built-in HDMI output port.
The camera offers Wi-Fi connectivity, as well, plus several Polaroid photo sharing apps to facilitate sending media to friends on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, and Vimeo, among others. Bluetooth is also onboard, which is useful in transferring files wirelessly to computers or mobile devices.
The camera is produced by Sakar International, which holds a Polaroid license.
For those interested in purchasing the device, the Polaroid iM1836 will hit the market during the first quarter of this year for the price of US $399. Attendees of CES 2013 may check out the camera at the Polaroid Booth #13613 from January 8 to 11.
Meanwhile, Polaroid has other cameras that are slated to be released this year. These are the iM1836, iM1030, iS2433, and the iD975.

Halloween is just around the corner and for those of us who take it very seriously, it's time to start preparing (lets be honest, you've probably already started). However, it's very important to note that Halloween is a relatively new celebration in Spain and it looks a little different than what we picture in North America. While the stereotypical Halloween celebration in America is full of candy and suggestive costumes, the Spanish have kept Halloween on the scary side. You will see most people dressed up as something dead, monstrous or horrific. So, what exactly is a typical Halloween in Madrid and how can you get the most of this famous holiday? Take a look at everything Madrid will offer this October 31st!
Day of the Dead
The Day of the Dead is really the holiday that started it all. This particular day is most known in as a Mexican holiday. But, it's very popular in almost all Roman Catholic countries. This is also known as All Souls Day (Dia de todos los Santos) and takes place the day after Halloween. This is a day where families and friends honour all the souls in their lives who have passed on. Typically the people will wear all black and visit the local cemetery, or the cemetery where their loved ones are buried. You can buy the traditional flowers and candles at almost any street corner on this day. After which you bring them to pray for all the lost souls of the family, city, country and the world. In the afternoons it's typical for friends and families to gather together for a feast of traditional All Souls Day foods – like Huesos de Santo and Panellets. If you want to do the Halloween season right, you have to participate in this ancient tradition!
Terror Parks
Both of Madrid's prominent theme parks will be hosting multiple Halloween themed events through the month of October and some of November. Parque Warner will be completely transformed into a town of Horrors which will include "Friday the 13th Bloody Camp", a recreation of the famous "Elm Street" and a Wild West city that has become overrun with zombies! There will also be activities for children and big spooky parade at the end of each night! In addition Madrid's Parque de Attracciones will also be transforming into a terrifying world of horrors. The park will include an "Insidious Experience" where you can try to survive scenes from the film trilogy. A "Hospital of the Dead" and most importantly, the famous "Walking Dead Experience" where visitors can attempt to survive a zombie apocalypse. Parque de Attracciones won't have anything for children, so they recommend not bringing anyone under the age of 10 years old.
Like most shops in the Madrid city centre, you won't be able to find massive department store sized costumes shops like you might back home. You might find some ridiculously overpriced costumes at El Corte Ingles but you'd be way better off looking at local shops. There is no shortage of costume shops all over the city for you to buy this years scariest costumes. With one week left until the big day, you'd better start searching for Halloween persona now! As I mentioned earlier, the tradition of scary costumes is honoured much more here so most shops will sell these types. You will be impressed with the bloody some peoples costume creativity! Some Great shops to check out include BarulloCompany, Menkes, Maty and Fantástica. On top Maty offers a 10% discount showing the voucher on your cell phone! Click here!
Halloween Parties
This year Halloween lands on a Monday, which means it's going to be a pretty crazy weekend followed by an amazing Monday night! The streets of Madrid will be covered in costume clad people roaming the streets from party to party, from club to club. If you're looking for something for you and your friends to do we've got some great options for you! To get the most of this Halloween weekend come party with us on Monday for Fuckin' Monday's FRIGHT NIGHT at the club LIBERTY in barrio Salamanca! Come wearing your costume and you could win "best dressed" in our costume contest! If you arrive in costume you will get a deliciously "bloody" shot and a chance to win our costume contest! Check out each event for details on guest list, entry fee's and opening hours!
Other Events
In addition, there will be many quirky and fun Halloween themed locations and events all over town! Like our Myths and Mysteries tour happening on Thursday the 27th! Join us on a walk through winding streets of medieval Madrid as we discover the dark secrets of the city from over the last hundreds of years! If you're really into the whole Halloween thing, check out this amazing list of themed restaurants and bars where you can be served by a vampire and feast on some ghoulish meals! Would you dare to spend the night in a haunted house? Scare yourself silly at the House of Horrors in Aranjuez. The ticket includes dinner, open bar, breakfast and a night of haunting horrors!

Beyond Abundance: Self-Interest Motives for Sustainable Consumption in Relation to Product Perception and Preferences
This paper presents results of a study that examined the perceptions and preferences of identified "responsible, sustainable consumers" with respect to functional products. The study is part of a larger research program that looks at material cultures and product design in relation to sustainable production and consumption. Based on empirical data gathered from among citizens attempting to follow sustainable lifestyles, the authors reflect on how the adoption of sustainable consumption patterns can not only be motivated by altruistic and environmental considerations, but also, significantly, by perceived personal benefits, including an expected increase in personal well-being. These motivations, together with how they unfold into preferences for particular product characteristics, are discussed. The paper concludes that the understanding of such motives, along with their implications for the ways in which products and services are conceived and positioned, may warrant further research as it can represent a key incentive for change towards a more sustainable future.

Almond Cupcakes
Recipe by Pikake21
These cupcakes are the "I'm-trying-so-hard-to-stop-pretending-these-are-a-main-dish" type, when prepared with Guava Cream Cheese Filling as the icing--the Guava Cream-cheese filling. I hulled out a small circle in the middle of the cupcakes and filled them with this. Undeniably addicting! Found this idea on an online blog.
Top Review by ejgx93
This is the most amazing cupcake recipe ever! The sugar forms a light crust on top, and the cake is so good it can be eaten by itself. I substituted 1/2 cup of almond flour for a 1/2 cup of regular flour, and it imbues the cake with a hearty, dense flavor. I made a variation of the guava cream frosting with tart apricots poached in honey and vanilla instead of guava. It was amazing, and my coworkers devoured them. Thanks for a wonderful recipe!

Affordable Limited Edition Art
Posted on August 25 2015
Starting the collection you've always wanted or giving the gift of art is easier than you think with these Affordable Limited Editions.
About the Artists
Steven Quinn
(Above: Livingroom Boom, Drive and The Waters Edge by Steven Quinn)
Steven Quinn plays with imagery in a fresh & unique way, toying with ideas and twisting images from their original context into new and sometimes humorous narratives. Faces protrude from mountain ranges, 1950s families frolic beside nuclear explosions, burning planets and more.
Run for the Hills
(Above: God Save the Queen, Hitched, and Film London Map by Run for the Hills)
Run for the Hills is a bit of a creative meeting of minds (and pencils). A collaboration with graphic artist Dex and interior designer Anna Burles, their first collection Literary London celebrated everything that's great about London's literary heritage and brought London's fictional characters to life.
Dex and Anna have now launched an exciting second collection - Film Noir - giving film classics a noir makeover.
Sammy Slabbinck
(Above: Stray and High Time by Sammy Slabinck)
Sammy Slabbinck renders dynamic surreal collage prints and original collages on paper, combining vintage photographs with contemporary compositional styles. The images are cut up into pieces and redistributed, playing with exaggeration and proportions. Other times, the images are placed in a reverse context, juxtaposing modern ideals with traditional states of mind.
Sammy Slabbinck is a Belgian artist based in Bruges. He is like a director, placing found imagery from Mid-Century advertisements in a contemporary context. The result is a composition that meditates on the past and considers the absurdity of popular culture.
Launched in 1992, artrepublic features an incredible collection for the art lover, both online and at their gallery in Brighton. Discover the latest rare, limited edition art prints from both cutting-edge & world famous artists.

Let s say you re thinking about buying your first house or condominium. The process of buying real estate can be an extremely rewarding experience, both from a personal and financial standpoint.
Why Buy
There are many reasons you may wish to buy a home, whether you need or want:
- A place to live
- Feeling of permanence
- Stable housing costs
- Good use of your money
- Tax benefits.
On the other hand, you may not be ready to buy a home. Buying a home:
- Is a complex, time-consuming and costly process
- May bring unwelcome responsibilities such as maintenance and repairs
- Makes it harder for you to move
- Can create financial hardship.
The purchase of a home is, in part, a financial transaction. Much like a trip to the grocery store to buy coffee, you have many choices and a significant price range. But unlike a bag of Costa Rican coffee, a house has certain bonuses: Equity, Tax Savings and Ownership.
What s all that mean
A house is an investment in land and the existing structure. History tells us that there is a good chance that a house will increase in value over time. Also, by making timely mortgage payments, you are paying down the debt you owe and building equity.
Equity is the difference between the value of your home and how much you still owe. You may not own your home outright, but your investment has a cash value.
In addition to increasing in value over time, owning a home can have a significant impact on your monthly paycheck in a very positive way! When you borrow money to purchase a home, the interest that you pay on that money is usually tax deductible.
For example, if you have an annual income of $45,000 and owe $200,000 on a 30-year mortgage at a fixed 7% interest rate, you ll likely save about $200 per month in taxes the first year you own the home!

Gaming has become a popular activity among adults and children alike. If you are like me, you will be reading every article you can find on the game that you're itching to get your hands on, and feel conflicted because you want the day it releases to come faster, but at the same time you don't want your exams to come faster. *Sigh!!* Talk about first world problems.
Video games are fun, but they do come with their downsides. First off, they can ruin your eyes. Who doesn't know that? Some people think that it's the games that ruin your eyesight. It is actually the screen itself, whether you're playing video games or not, and gadgets like the Oculus Rift don't affect your eyes at all. Although it's meant for video games, it can be used for military practice, education etc. And some of the most popular channels on YouTube are related to gaming. But you can play too many games, for too much time. If you play video games while you are supposed to be doing something else, the results can be disastrous. Excess of video games can take a toll on your work and social life. If you have a project due, you will procrastinate and put it off for later just so that you can play a few more hours! This can get serious and your career and social life can take a huge hit.
But, on the other hand, video games are fun, engaging, and they improve hand-eye co-ordination, team work, reduce depression and improve your decision making skills. First person shooters are said to increase aggression in kids, but several studies have been done in this regard and the consensus is that the aggression shown in violent video games are not transferred to all the kids playing them, and is dependent on the home environment and the overall nature of the child. Games like Minecraft also help build resource management skills. Games also help increase the eyes' agility, as long it is not exposed to the screen for a long period of time. The video game industry is in it's prime and joining a game developing company such as EA or Ubisoft as a game tester or game designer is a viable career option. In 2012 the video game industry was worth $67 billion, and is expected to rise to $82 billion by 2017. Video games are also used to cure many mental illnesses and cataracts. Video games provide the player with a surreal experience that can't be found in real life, and although this is the cause for most addictions, if they are balanced with other things, they can be fun and engaging.

On Wednesday 21st January 2015, 10 children from St Matthews Book Club had the opportunity to visit BBC Media City for the BBC School Report practise day and during their visit they were able to interview one of the CBBC News round presenters, Hayley Hassel. The children went into a building that looked very modern and the furniture was quite contemporary.
Firstly, they were invited to join in with news rounds additional meeting with both the editors and presenters, they were allowed to give their opinion on the show and what they thought would make news round more appealing for children. The presenters asked the children what they could have done to improve their last bulletin and what stories they could show, everyone was able to participate in the meeting and was asked if they had any ideas to contribute. In the meeting they talked about a new programme called " pets wild at heart", and the children were asked if they thought their pets had secret lives, four children were interviewed by CBBC News round presenter Ricky Boleto for the next bulletin at 4:20.
After the editors meeting was over, everyone had the opportunity to interview one of news rounds presenters, Hayley Hassel and she even reversed the interview and started asking the children questions showing how professional she is. James (the News round website designer) was the last person to be interviewed, he explained to them how he adds the pictures and videos to the website and how he gets it all working, he enthusiastically answered the many questions they had about the website.
At the end of the day, everyone who wanted to, had the chance to try out a new type of gaming equipment called the Oculus Rift, a special head set that you put over your eyes and makes you feel like you are actually inside the game. When they got the opportunity to play the game, some of them went on a rollercoaster and they felt like they were actually on it and tipping from side to side, others went on a classic city tour and concert and felt like they were really there.
Before leaving, they had a quick tour around BBC Radio show Five live. Overall everyone enjoyed their experience and found it to be a fabulous and inspiring opportunity!
This was Georgina reporting for BBC school report.

from understanding human needs to 15 targetable segments
Person-level geoTribes segments turn readily available age & address information into a powerful platform for understanding customers and audiences with 15 geoTribes that are built on...
- Lifecycle Stage which is a key driver of needs across categories
- Socioeconomic Status which is a key driver of the quality of purchases made to meet the needs
why person-level targeting is better
Your lifecycle stage and where you live, are key factors in creating your social identity and this is integral with your lifestyle, purchasing, social interactions and use of brands & media channels.
If you are young, you'll have something in common with the older people in your area, but you are actually living your life in a totally different way and this is reflected across the different geoTribes segments.
geoTribes is the only segmentation tool that uses factual age in tagging, so that each geoTribe incorporates a distinct lifecycle stage rather than the mix that occurs in the segments of other geodemographic tools.
geoTribes is used by researchers, planners & creatives to...
- Understand behavioural drivers to work out why customers respond the way they do.
- Build rich psychological media & lifestyle profiles and create more nuanced propositions & messaging.
- Benchmark market penetration to find the best opportunities for business development.
- Link research, media, behavioural and retail data for market planning based on underlying human needs.
- Build profitability models to find the best geoTribes segments and target them on the ground.
- Build media plans from CRM databases based on high performing customers.
- Use geoTribes segments to develop the deeper understanding necessary to create powerful value propositions.
- Build distinct brand identities and messaging across the product range.
- Make customised corporate segment scheme based on geoTribes.
geoTribes segmentation is available in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, UK & USA.
geoTribes online database tagging portal
RDA's database tagging portal enables licensees to upload and batch tag full databases either through the web interface or SFTP/SSH. Tagging of geoTribes segments is available in Australia, New Zealand, USA, Great Britain and Canada. In Australia, the portal also tags geoSmart segments as well as SA1 and encrypted household identifiers... Records can be submitted to the portal in raw address or pre-processed (de-identified) formats.
RDA's data tagging web service can be integrated seamlessly into a business' infrastructure, and enables tagging of records in real time through the use of a SOAP based API. This means that records can be tagged immediately on acquisition, without having to wait until the next batch tagging update cycle. In addition to its main portal, RDA also provides licensees with access to its research tagging portal which is designed for use with market research surveys.

Italian Flair: Costa Atlantica Cruise Review by Jerseybabe
Overall Member Rating
Italian Flair
Destination: Baltic Sea
Embarkation: Copenhagen
From the very beginning we were impressed with the efficient organisation and flow that the holiday took. I can be hard to please and have high standards which were met every time by Costa. Although our british party (were from Jersey, channel Islands) were in the minority we were always made to feel welcome and indeed part of a wider european community as there were many nationalities aboard.
The ship was breathtakingly beautiful (I am not exagerating) Although we snacked in the buffet restaurant; for our evening meals we ate in the main restaurant with waiter service (the food was to a very high standard) which was an event in itself with themed nights involving music, dance and all the staff interacting with the diners in fact the Italian night was More absolutely incredible reminiscent of a new years eve party.
The ship was spotless and the staff were continually cleaning. I was sceptical having read some negative reviews however we would not hesitate in fact we hope to cruise again with Costa. Less

So what do real fashionistas eat for breakfast? No, not Cheerios. How about Burberry Flakes, Gucci Loops, Cartier Crunch or Louis Vuitton Charms? Yeah, that sounds a bit more like it.

A gas-powered, adult-sized big wheel? Count me in. The Green Machine ($75,000) is categorized as a three-wheeled motorcycle, but its looks — inspired by the classic pedaled tricycle of the same name — scream out "toy", even as its Harley-Davidson v-twin Evo engine pushes you along at speeds of up to 50 mph. Other features include a six-speed transmission, a range of 400 miles, and the ability to attract ridiculous amounts of attention.
I sooooooo want this…

Ever watch an old period piece and yearn for the casual, oversized, four-seat convertibles of the early 20th century? Apparently so do the designers at Cadillac, as that seems to be the inspiration for the Cadillac Ciel Concept ($TBA). This elongated drop-top boasts a hybrid system pairing a lithium-ion battery with a twin-turbocharged, 3.6L V6, four full-sized doors with suicides in the rear, a polished aluminum windshield frame, an interior borne of body-colored panels, wood, and leather, 22-inch rims featuring brushed nickel plating overtop milled aluminum, carbon ceramic brake rotors, LED lighting elements, a power-assisted transmission shifter, heating and cooling features in all the seats, and tons of other features that recall a bygone era of simple luxury.
If you didn't know now you know… Although most Electronic Dance Music is mislabeled by the uneducated masses as "Techno" this could not be further from the truth. The worldwide appeal of music like House and Techno is widely celebrated in just about everywhere in the world…, but not so much where it was created; the good ol' US of A. Waxpoetics comes with it in a rare dance issue. Dope/sad to see how a small black counter-culture spawned a world phenomenon that now, largely gets associated with ravers from the burbs. Put your hands up for Detroit.
This makes me happy… period. If you don't know, Sam Cooke was one of the greatest singers of his time (dare I say of all time). One of my favorite cities, Chicago; is giving a little recognition to one of its biggest stars . Good look.
Cooke was shot to death in an Los Angeles motel at the height of his fame in 1964 under circumstances that still baffle. But his music continues to resonate nearly a half century later.
Cat Stevens, Luther Vandross, The Pretenders and countless others have remade or referenced Cooke songs over the past 40 years. Cooke songs have turned up in 20 different movies and television shows over the past two decades, according to Internet Movie Database.
Twisting the Night Away was featured in that awful Green Hornet movie earlier this year. They played Shake in an episode of HBO's The Wire. And I still get the chills when Cooke's A Change is Gonna Come is played in a pivotal scene toward the end of Malcolm X. (It begins at 2:34 in this clip.)
Sam Cooke's latest honor came Saturday at 2pm when a stretch of 36th Street in the city's Bronzeville neighborhood will be renamed Sam Cooke Way, marking the place where the late, great soul singer spent his formative years. The renamed section begins at Cottage Grove and runs east, passing the site at 36th and Ellis where Cooke's boyhood home once stood.
Cooke's great-nephew Erik Greene spent four years advocating for the honorary street renaming. Greene is also the writer of a Cooke biography called Our Uncle Sam. I asked him a few questions about Cooke and his legacy.
Q: Why is this honorary street important?
A: I was born and raised in Chicago but never had an appreciation for the rich musical history of Bronzeville until I researched its history for what would eventually become Our Uncle Sam. It was then I learned Bronzeville was home to not just Sam, but Nat King Cole, Dinah Washington, Lou Rawls, and a host of other musical greats. Sam had already been recognized on the Bronzeville Walk of Fame, but his exclusion on a 35th and State Street mural commemorating famous Bronzeville residents gave me the impetus to make his street naming–a more permanent form of recognition–a reality.
Q: His music is still appreciated, isn't it? Even my teenage daughters and a couple of their friends are fans.
A: Good music is eternal and has the ability to transcend all age barriers. Sam adopted a simple, straight-forward songwriting style, and he wrote songs the common man could relate to. As a result, his music is timeless–easily appreciated and understood by all ages and generations. This type of pure simplicity is a long-lost art form.
Q: What will tomorrow's street-renaming ceremony look like?
A: Sam's street naming ceremony will consist of recognizing Sam's legacy and the importance of this particular street by myself, my cousin Eugene Jamison who will speak on behalf of the Cook family, Bronzeville political representatives, and Gregg Parker, CEO of the Chicago Blues Museum. I formally met Gregg after the street naming had been approved by the Chicago City Council, and his musical interest in Sam and the Bronzeville neighborhood fueled the event to its current prominence. A City of Chicago proclamation will be read, and local celebrities may be on the program as well.
Q: One last question. For decades there has been talk of a Sam Cooke movie. If one were made, who'd play Sam?
A: Ever since Sam's death, talk of a movie based on his life has heated up on several occasions only to fizzle out and go nowhere, and "Who should play Sam Cooke?" is an age-old question that's been kicked around by Sam Cooke fans for generations. In the early 70s, talk of Marvin Gaye portraying Sam was squashed when Gaye declared himself not worthy of the honor. Actors from Blair Underwood to Denzel Washington to Will Smith have been discussed more recently, but because Sam died at 33, these actors have invariably grown too old. Having been fooled by the several false-starts over the years, I've stopped speculating as to who could play Sam on the silver screen, but still smile at some of the suggestions.

There are two sides of this hotel, we stayed on the ocean side, which I think has better rooms, in an upper floor ocean view room. We found the staff to be very helpful when we were stuck at the hotel by hurricane Sandy. They graciously extended our stay at a reasonable rate and everyone kept asking about our family at home. We found the room to be clean, although the bed was uncomfortable and too soft for our backs. We were not charged for anything other than our room and taxes. The housekeeping staff promptly left everything we asked for. The Cafe Caribe was "okay" for breakfast but believe me the Denny's was disgusting!!! I am a very small eater and the waite staff was very accommodating by letting me order from the "add on" menu (1 pancake) or share my husbands breakfast.

How to Grow Kitchen Herbs Easily
Sow these seeds where they will remain as cilantro resents transplanting and will bolt, go to seed much faster than it needs to. The fabulous taste of Cilantro leaves then turns into Coriander seeds. This is an easy seed for beginners and so tasty.
This is the most flavorful of all Parsleys and a natural breath freshener. An excellent companion plant, Parsley is reputed to improve the scent and health of nearby roses and to aid the growth of tomatoes and asparagus..
For pesto no one will forget, try this sweet Basil with its large, flavorful, fragrant leaves. Your herb garden is incomplete without this versatile culinary treat. Works well in containers too. Enough seed for one 75' row.
Spearmint - Garden or common mint, as it is often called, is perhaps the most widely grown for general kitchen use, its young bright green shoot tips ready just in time for the first peas and early potatoes in June. Like all mints, it is a vigorous and very hardy perennial, spreading widely by underground runners, which are easily restrained by growing plants in a bottomless container or large plastic bag buried in the ground. If plants are cut hard back just before flowering, the trimmings can be frozen, while the plants themselves will produce another crop of young well-flavoured shoots.
Thinking of buying herb seeds online for the kitchen garden? Growing herb seeds for use in your kitchen is a great idea. Not only do you save money, but you will always have dried herbs to hand for all your needs.
Herbs are an essential for the kitchen garden. They have so many uses for flavouring stews, soups, stocks, adding colour and for adding interest to salads or for flavouring continental cuisine.
Herbs aren't used only in cuisine, they have much wider uses, from medicinal to decorative to companion planting in the garden.
They are easy to grow, attractive to look at, fantastic to smell, and no garden should be without them.
They range from the annuals, like coriander, basil and marjoram, to the perennials like mint, fennel and thyme, to the bulbs like chives.
The annuals only grow for one season, but depending on the climate you live in, this period can be extended, but generally speaking, a plant that is classed as an annual will only grow until such time as it flowers and produces seed.
If you continually crop your herb, it will continue to send out new shoots in it's effort to flower and until such times that is actually allowed to flower, it will continue to grow.
Perennials don't die over winter, or die when they flower, they continue growing. If they are happy where they are - i.e. have all the right conditions they like - they will also have a tendency to spread.
Sometimes it is better to plant perennial herbs in a container in the ground to dissuade this habit.
Bulbous herbs are good to grow because the bulbs will produce offsets and not only can they grow (and spread around a little) but they don't tend to take over the way mint would if given the opportunity.
Bulbous herbs can be lifted during their dormant period (winter) and planted elsewhere in the garden, or given on to friends.
Which kitchen herbs to grow?
So now you want to grow herbs! Which herbs? And for what use?
Well, parsley is my all-time favourite. It tastes so much better when you grow your own - none of that dried stuff from the supermarket or tasteless stuff that the wholeseller grows.
I use parsley in soups ( a must have!), sauces, and on various meat dishes.
Sage, well I haven't used it so much in cooking. It's good for sage in onion stuffing which I don't make or like. This herb however, is attractive in the garden and has loads of medicinal uses.
Coriander makes great curries! Wow! Bring it on! And the nice thing about coriander is that you can dry the seeds for use throughout the year.
Chives - great for salads, egg mayonnaise type thingies, its sort of oniony, gives a nice flavour. Has pretty flowers too.
Oregano! Now how do I make a bolognese sauce taste nice without it?
Same goes for basil, especially 'sweet basil'. Love it:)
When you need a green to add some interest to your salads, arugula fills the plate. Plant this early as it likes cool weather.
Bouquet Dill Herb (Dwarf) Anethum graveolens 30-36 in. Direct seed, 1 seed per inch, in a sunny place in the garden in late spring or early summer. Enrich soil with mature compost. Watering tips. During germination, keep entire seedbed evenly moist. Allow soil surface to dry between waterings. To use the leaf as a dried herb, harvest before the plant flowers. Mature seeds can be harvested for a spice.
Assortment of 12 Culinary Herb Seeds Parsley, Thyme, Cilantro/Coriander, Basil, Dill, Oregano, Sweet Marjoram, Chives, Savory, Garlic Chives, Mustard, Sage.
Herbs are easy to grow
Herbs are easy to grow no matter where you live.
You buy the seeds, throw them on the ground, and you are sure to have some herbs that year.
They are attractive plants too, all they want is a little water, a little sun, a little heat.
They don't ask for much and yet they give so much in return.
Don't let your garden be without them this year!
Despite what it may say on the seed packet, I tend to start my herbs off in pots.
I'd take a large wide pot and scater the all the seeds in the packet, or perhaps less if I don't think I'll need that many plants, and prick them all out indivually into a seed tray when they start to develop their 'true' leaves (the second set of leaves).
Depending on the size of the seed tray, I can generally plant on 12 to 16 in a seed tray, which is then placed either in the greenhouse, a sunny windowshelf, or a frost-free patio.
When they grow big enough to touch each other, they are ready for potting on, which means taking each small plant out, with the soil they are growing in, and planting into an individual pot, one a bit bigger than the area they are used to.
When they start to outgrow that pot, they are ready for planting in the garden.
The advantages of doing this is that their roots can develop well, before you plant them in the garden.
Even plants in pots outside get quite a shock when they are planted into the earth where, possibly for the first time in their lives, they meet soil pests, insects, slugs and other things that live in the soil.
I have found that planting directly into the soil means the loss of many seedlings before they get the chance to gain enough strength to fight off predators.
Cropping and drying Herbs
Once your herb plants are growing well, crop them as often as you can.
For the summer flowering ones like coriander, remove the stalks with seed-heads as soon as they have dried on the plant, for further drying in the house before placing in jars for use as and when you need them.
Parsley, oregano, basil etc should have leaf stalks removed and dried.
You can tie little bunches of them together and dry on a washing line on good days, else wash and prepare them (remove all the stalks,bad bits and browned leaves, if you have any) and lay them on a baking tray.
Place in a very low oven with the door slightly ajar and they should be completely dried inside the hour.
Then crush and jar them for future use.
I have some of the large leaf basil growing now., , so delicious. . nothing as good as your own herbs growing! Good thing for window sills, for come winter that is where my herbs will be! Thumbs up Izzy :)
Spring starts in September so I'm waiting till then, planning to get the the flower nursery in the next few weeks to buy seeds and some new plants. Bring on the sunshine!!
I love to cook so I love my herbs, especially parsley and basil. I need to put more seeds in again soon, its still winter down here. Hi from Australia.
Hello Izzy, I love to grow my own herbs, and loved reading your hub here! I also love parsley, and there is nothing like the fresh stuff. You are an inspiration, I want to grow more things now :)
Have you grown rosemary? Im not sure when to collect seeds.Ive never grown herbs before so im trying it this year. And I was also wondering if you can collect seeds and replant them every year from seeds I buy at walmart and big box stores? Also are any herb seeds GMO or is that just for veggies?
Nice one. I grow many herbs, I always collect my seeds. This was a nice article for the new year
