Upstairs Nursery Bedroom
The couple turned a small upstairs bedroom into a nursery to accommodate their growing family. The neutral colors make it a sweet place for a baby, while the light pouring in from the window and the chandelier on the ceiling makes the space light.
City Girl Nursery
With a new baby girl in the family, Chip and his team were charged with the important job of making sure that the Howells' princess has the perfect palace. Chip and his team added complimentary colors, such as pink and purple, as well as multiple patterns and textures to make this place sugar and spice and everything nice for this baby girl. The luxurious crib and additional toy storage is a must have to help make the nursery clean and inviting.
Stone Double Fireplace in Contemporary Master Bedroom
A double-sided stacked stone fireplace is a stunning focal point in the center of this elegant master bedroom. Comfortable chairs sit on one side for a cozy seating area, while a platform bed is situated between picturesque windows with beautiful views.
Uncovential Baby Decor in Modern Nursery
Skip the duckies and choo choos. This modern nursery features unconventional baby decor. Faux animal mounts, large numbers and chalkboard wall add a bit of whimsy with a modern flair.
For Baby on the Way
Fixer Upper hosts Chip and Joanna Gaines transformed a depressing room into a bright and festive nursery for the Purks' baby on the way. The old wall paneling was removed and replaced with light blue painted drywall with white trim.
Pictures of Baby Alaskan Animals Complete Ombré Mountain Nursery
To complete this space, designers added pictures of baby animals that are indigenous to Alaska, which was the inspiration for this elegant nursery.
Lime Green Nursery
This vibrant nursery features lime green walls, a navy striped rug and a mid-century mod floor lamp. A crib and white upholstered glider complete the room.
Transitional Nursery With Gray And Beige Striped Walls
Bright wall art and beige-and-white striped walls bring a soothing feel to this nursery. Silver metallic monogrammed letters, colorful wall frames and the crib's bedding add pops of color.
Midnight Wine Weigela
A living mulch is a type of low-growing ground cover that blankets soil like a mulch. In this garden, golden creeping jenny (Lysimachia nummularia 'Aurea') is the living mulch. Other plants that work well as living mulches include alpine strawberry, low juniper, vinca vine or short mints like Corsican mint. Be careful with living mulches that root along stems as they grow. These types of plants can easily become invasive and even try to overgrow lawns.
Straw Mulch In Raised Bed
Straw is a more utilitarian mulch typically used in vegetable gardens or strawberry patches. Straw is simply the stalks of grain plants. Ask your local straw supplier if their product is clean (doesn't contain grain heads) and weed-free. Prevent weed seed issues by spreading three sheets of damp newspaper under straw. Some gardeners let straw bales sit a few weeks so weed or grain seeds germinate. This leads to moldy straw—plan to wear a dust mask if you have allergies. Expect to get one to two growing seasons out of straw, depending on how thickly you spread it.
Flower Border With Mulch
Shredded bark mulch is a good choice for a flower border filled with tuberous begonia, Prairie Sun rudbeckia, delphinium, sedum and hydrangea.
Reading Nook in Contemporary Boy's Nursery
Sleek book ledges display favorite reads, creating a simple reading nook. A dark wood crib is dressed with classic pinstriped sheets and a graphic black-and-white pillows, while the updated damask wallpaper contrasts against the simple striped area rug.
Luxurious Kitchen with Island and Chandelier
This beautiful large kitchen, featured on HGTV, shows the importance of quality materials in a final product.
Transitional Living Room Boasts Soothing Neutrals
"I love gray — I think I always will," says interior designer Lexi Westergard. "However, I am definitely using it differently than I have in the past. I still love it for bathroom cabinet colors, pillows, rugs and accents. I am loving more of a greige or white for wall colors. I think this year we will see white as the dominant, go-to neutral color for walls."
If bright white walls are a bit out of your comfort zone, try a warm gray tone that's light enough to almost look white, like Lexi did in this living room. She chose Benjamin Moore's Classic Gray, one of her favorite paint colors.
Eclectic Living Room With Blue Sofa
A bright blue sofa is the centerpiece of this eclectic living room. It is adorned with round white throw pillows. A white round coffee table is topped with fresh flowers.
Glowing Contemporary Home
With the large windows on the front of the house as well as the exterior lighting, this beautiful, contemporary home looks like a glowing star against the desert night.
Marble Backsplash Meets Stainless Appliances
To help this remodeled kitchen feel new to the owners, the design team introduced a marble backsplash and stainless steel appliances. In turn, the room now feels fresh and clean.
Light-Filled Eclectic Master Bedroom With Canopy Bed
A towering canopy bed draws you into this master bedroom, and the lofty layering of bedding invites you to stay. A generous sprinkling of details completes the eclectic space: groupings of framed artwork, a pair of tufted ottomans and an antique chest standing in for a nightstand.

What Meeting Planners Are Saying About The Wigwam…
I would like to extend our appreciation to The Wigwam conference staff for our successful conferences 2012 Educator Evaluator Summit III. Our partnership is approaching eight years and continues to be strong. The Arizona Department of Education realizes that our programs would not be successful without all of the Wigwam staff who supports us during our events.
My CEO has never used the same location twice for our Leadership Meetings; however, based on the positive feedback we received from all of our guests, we will look to come back for our 2013 meeting.
It was an awesome experience for all attendees. The entire staff, bottom to top and top to bottom were absolutely superb and a joy to work with. The staff went way beyond expectations to help us put on this extraordinary event.
Fantastic event. The grounds and area around the lodge never looked better. Litchfield's was superb! Best dining experience yet. Closing night awards dinner was the best banquet dinner I've ever had.
Your entire staff from top to bottom has been trained well! The thing that that stands out is how quickly they respond to accommodating whatever requests are made. They are friendly, helpful and very professional. I was very pleased!
Outstanding marks on all accounts. Don't know how you can improve on perfection.

Sometimes, in spite of our best plans and intentions, we want to go, go, go! to see and do all there is at Walt Disney World, but reality kicks in. Be it in the form of a run-of-the-mill meltdown, overheating, overeating, too little sleep, sore feet – the list is long – something interferes with our momentum. 'S Okay though! Disney World knows and Disney World understands! We need options! No matter the situation – you can cool off, calm down, take a load off, or nap!
At Disney World? Take Five! Best Places to Relax
Hall of Presidents – While I love this attraction, I get that it is definitely thrill-less. Let Morgan Freeman's narration lull you into a state of relaxation. Little ones (and you) can easily nap during this nearly 23-minute show in Magic Kingdom's Liberty Square. The seats are comfy!
Ellen's Energy Adventure – Rumor has it that this outdated and underappreciated attraction is on the chopping block in the near future, so take advantage while you can of this glorious 40-minutes of air-conditioned prime napping opportunity! I'm not kidding – yours truly has snoozed (often involuntarily) on every visit. Once Ellen's gone, we'll have to take 5 at Epcot in the France Pavilion's movie theater and chill during Impressions de France for 18 minutes of calming music and scenery.
Voyage of the Little Mermaid – This 17-minute show in Disney's Hollywood Studios seems a lot longer when you're in the theater. It's wonderfully dark and cool, the story's familiar and without anything unexpected. Tired feet, full belly, cranky offspring – no matter the ailment, Ariel and her adventures are soothing.
Finding Nemo The Musical – A whopping 40-minutes long, this attraction in Disney's Animal Kingdom provides a wonderful opportunity to escape from what is arguably Disney's hottest park. While this show does revisit Nemo's familiar story, it does so in a unique way, by adding musical numbers. Details here. I've not been a huge fan, but certainly appreciate the prime rest and relaxation opportunity afforded in this little oasis set between Asia and Dinoland U.S.A.
Take the Boat! If transportation from points A to B by water is an option, choose it! Go from Magic Kingdom to Wilderness Lodge, grab the boat from Disney's Hollywood Studios to the Epcot area, set sail from Disney Springs to and from the Port Orleans resorts…doesn't matter where you're going, a boat-ride is the ultimate in relaxation! Personally, I'll hop aboard the Liberty Belle in Magic Kingdom just for the scenery and to escape from the crowds.
Now it's your turn! What is your most favorite place to take 5 at Walt Disney World?

Bariatric Surgery Post-Op: Day 1
Today is Bariatric Surgery Post-Op Day 1. The first day with my new, smaller stomach. I had the gastric sleeve yesterday and so far I can drink about an ounce of water in 15 minutes. Yesterday it was worse. Drinking caused the gag reflex pretty severely. My abdomen is pretty sore and getting up yesterday was difficult. In fact I needed to have someone help me up each time I

The Region III-AAA champion Lancaster Bruins will compete in the Class AAA state meet at the University of South Carolina Natatorium on Saturday, Oct. 17.
Lancaster, led by co-head coaches Midenna Anderson and David Taylor, was slated to compete in the annual meet in Columbia on Saturday, Oct. 10, but the meet was moved to Oct. 17 due to the flooding in the Columbia area.
Lancaster High has a host of swimmers slated to compete in the field.
u LHS girls in state meet:
INDIAN LAND – If it seems Indian Land High School senior offensive guard Dakota Brigman embraces his role as a Warriors' offensive lineman, he does.
Brigman does enjoy his role in the trenches, but he's known that for a while.
"Growing up, there are those glamour positions in football, like quarterback, or running back or wide receiver," he said.
Don't even go there with Brigman, a 6-1, 245-pound IL line veteran.
Since his early days of organized football, he's always been on the line.
RICHBURG – A quartet of Lancaster County football players was honored at the week seven meeting of the Tri-County Football Coaches Association meeting held Tuesday, Oct. 13 at the Front Porch Restaurant in Richburg.
The county players selected for honors included Andrew Jackson High's Heath Gandy and Dalton McKittrick along with Lancaster High School's C.D. Catoe and Caleb Funderburk.
The Lancaster Lady Bruins, 20-1, 8-0, are looking to wrap up their second straight Region III-AAA volleyball championship.
LHS, in action last week, posted two home wins, topping South Pointe and Clinton.
LHS visited Chester on Tuesday, Oct. 13 and hosts Broome to wrap up regular-season play on Thursday, Oct. 15.
Lancaster, in the win over South Pointe High School, was led by Hayden Thorne's seven kills.
Keyotta Garris and Amirah Steward each had five kills.
Buford High School has tapped into the college ranks for its new boys basketball coach.
Raheem Waller, an Atlanta native who has coached 10 years in various levels of college basketball, was introduced as the Jackets' new basketball coach Thursday, Oct. 8 in the BHS auditorium.
Week eight of the 2015 Lancaster County football season features a host of pivotal clashes Friday, Oct. 16.
Lancaster and Buford will be in quest of wins to boost their region title and playoff chances.
Andrew Jackson and Indian Land will be seeking victories to aid their postseason hopes.
Lancaster ventures to Rock Hill to battle defending Region III-AAA champion South Pointe, while Buford, in its annual homecoming game, will face Central as the Jackets seek to stay unbeaten in Region IV-AA play.
PROSPERITY – The month-long odyssey for the Indian Land Warriors continued on Friday night, Oct. 9 against the Mid-Carolina Rebels, and once again the Warriors had trouble getting started.
The host Rebels, led by Terrence Long, bolted to a 28-0 lead en route to 54-30 non-region win over the visiting Warriors, who dropped their third straight loss.
Long's first rush, the opening play from scrimmage, went 75 yards for a touchdown.
KERSHAW – Andrew Jackson parlayed a strong defense and a balanced offense to give first-year Volunteers' coach C.J. Frye his first home victory against Region IV-AA rival North Central, 35-15.
"I am so proud of the effort this team gave tonight, " Frye said. "Every time we needed a big play, our defense responded. Plus, we were pretty balanced on offense.
"This group is exciting to watch when we play with this kind of desire," added Frye. " We still have to work on penalties."
CHESTERFIELD – The saying goes, a good defense will beat a good offense and the Buford Yellow Jackets proved that to be true Friday night when they handed the 10th-ranked Chesterfield Rams their second loss of the season, 31-23.
With the win Buford, 5-2, 4-0, sits atop Region IV AA after the surging Jackets' fourth straight region win.
The pass-happy Chesterfield offense was stymied throughout the game by the stingy Buford defense. The Rams didn't have an offensive score until five minutes left to play.
CLINTON – With the game on the line, Lancaster put it on the line and delivered with a tough 24-16 win over Clinton in a Region III-AAA football game Friday night, Oct. 9 at Wilder Stadium in Clinton.
LHS, ranked No. 8 in the Class AAA state poll, was locked in a battle with the Red Devils, who trailed 17-16 in the final period.
The Bruins, 7-0, 2-0, then turned to its potent ground attack to grind out a decisive 13-play, 78-yard drive.

At this important moment in the Asian American civil and human rights movement, four leading organizations—Asian Americans Advancing Justice—Chicago, Asian Americans Advancing Justice—Asian American Justice Center, Asian Americans Advancing Justice—Asian Law Caucus Asian Americans Advancing Justice—LA—are strengthening our alliance by coming together under one name, Asian Americans Advancing Justice.
Together we will advance the goals we already work toward as individual organizations— promoting a fair and equitable society for all, strengthening civil and human rights, and empowering Asian American, Pacific Islander and other vulnerable communities. By affiliating under the same name, we will streamline and coordinate our efforts to promote our common goals while remaining equal and independent partners.
Each group boasts staff with valuable expertise and deep experience. Asian Americans Advancing Justice-Chicago is the Midwest's leading pan-Asian organization dedicated to empowering the Asian American community through advocacy, research, education and coalition building. Advancing Justice—Asian American Justice Center (AAJC) is one of the foremost national organizations advancing civil and human rights for Asian Americans and building a fair and equitable society for all through education, public policy, community organizing and litigation. Advancing Justice— Asian Law Caucus (ALC) is the oldest legal organization in the country defending the civil rights of Asian and Pacific Islander communities. It focuses on the needs of low-income, immigrant and under-served communities. Advancing Justice—LA is the nation's largest legal organization addressing the needs of Asians and Pacific Islanders by advocating for civil rights, providing legal services, education and building coalitions.
As Asian Americans Advancing Justice, we will expand the Asian American community's reach and effectiveness by speaking in one unified and powerful voice.
The mission of Asian Americans Advancing Justice is to promote a fair and equitable society for all by working for civil and human rights and empowering Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders and other underserved communities.

According to the World Trade Organization, global trade in telecommunications services accounts for $1.5 trillion in revenues. Trade in telecommunications services includes entrance of new telecommunications companies, foreign direct investment, and the cross-border transmission of telecommunications services. Donald Trump would like to build a wall around some of that trade, specifically the trade between Mexico and the United States promoted in the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA or Agreement). I don't think that is a good idea simply because it reduces the availability of additional choice of telecommunications providers and restricts the flow via foreign direct investment of additional capital that a fledgling telecom may need. Calling for a tearing up of NAFTA also shows Mr. Trump's ignorance when it comes to global capital markets.
Take for example the Mexico-based telecom America Movil SAB de CV. America Movil is a beast, controlling 70% of Mexico's wireless and internet access market, according to Morningstar strategist Michael Hodel. This market dominance is a red flag to Mexican regulators who have promulgated rules designed to reign in America Movil. Rules changes have provided United States-based AT&T an opening to enter the Mexican market, but it is expected that AT&T will have a tough go at profitability as it seeks to navigate the Mexican market.
NAFTA provides AT&T some help. Chapter 13 of NAFTA addresses access to public telecommunications transport networks by persons, broadcast station operators, cable system operators, or operators of private networks. Under Article 1302, AT&T is able to purchase, lease, and attach equipment to Mexico's public telecommunications transport networks. AT&T can also interconnect its private networks to Mexico's public telecommunications transport networks either from in the United States or from within Mexico. NAFTA, combined with changes in Mexican law, can be good for American telecommunications firms.
While NAFTA does not speak directly to listing of shares of corresponding stock exchanges, America Movil lists its American Depository Receipts on the New York Stock Exchange. ADRs are negotiable certificates issued by a U.S. bank representing a specified number of shares in a foreign stock traded on a U.S. exchange. If access to Mexican markets by American firms were curtailed as a result of tearing up NAFTA, the only beneficiaries north of the Rio Grande would be holders of ADRs or other securities issued by Mexican-based firms because their revenues would be left unchallenged.
If Mr. Trump is concerned about increases on return to American capital or increases in American jobs as he claims, tearing up NAFTA would be the wrong approach.

A few miles outside of the town of Windsor Colorado, there was an abandoned farmhouse everyone called The Witch. It was a place where teenagers congregated, and rednecks sighted in their guns, but it was also place that had a dark history. For years, nothing ever happened there, but one dark summer night a young couple is accosted by an angry mob of devil worshippers. The attack sets in motion a series of events that will rock the little town to its foundations.
Something sinister is brewing at the Witch, and it will take the efforts of three unlikely heroes to combat it. Buck Johnson is a young deputy who is in over his head, Dr. Reginald Cooper is a professor who specializes in the occult, and Pastor Nathan Kelly is a holy man who has done battle with Satanists before. Together they must figure out a way to stop this dangerous cult before they unleash an ancient evil, hell-bent on revenge, which left unchecked will destroy the town and all who reside there.

15 Questions: An interview with Luke McMullan
15 Questions
Tell me about your book.
John Kinsella has written that this book is 'prising the nails out of the lyric'. That's true. And while the book's will to contradict the lyric appears anti-lyrical, I wonder what in fact could be more lyrical than that genre's distress? If we believe that the lyric articulates formal, linguistic, politic, histrionic—some constellation of all predicates—distress, then the articulation of its own distress might be said to be both supremely lyrical and anti-lyrical at once. And this distress need not be that of the writer—I don't believe in the childish and convenient equivalence of 'the lyric I' with the capitalist subject made by some for whom that simplification is self-valorising. It's this tendency of the lyric to capture and recuperate its own escape attempts, like the event horizon of a black hole, that has interested me in the writing of Dolphin Aria. There's a certain eternal gravitational pull to the lyric, which is also profoundly odd, alienating, given its apparent historical specificity. Wordsworth wrote that poetry makes the familiar unfamiliar, I think this is analogous to the process undertaken by every good writer of the lyric today—they make the form alien, perhaps uninhabitable. We should think of the scene in Independence Day when the denizens of Earth have this sublime experience of the alien motherships viewed from below: the whole thing cannot be viewed at once, only glimpsed in the gaps between skyscrapers, a sublimity that of course gives the lie to their centrality and desacralises their subjectivity. The humans triumph in the end by uploading a virus to that sublime form from a captured flying saucer—and perhaps the metaphor of the virus or of the fifth column is an appropriate descriptor for lyric engagement.
The book is called Dolphin Aria/Limited Hours: A Love Song. Perhaps I can disclose something of the book by parsing its title. For me, the aria is an apex moment of the aesthetic, in which the training of a singer and so many members of an orchestra in the pit, the competence and vision of the composer, the structure and needs of the work, become momentarily crystalline. The aria bespeaks aesthetic refinement in the same way that pure iron signifies the refinement of haematite. The aria is also, of course, the crystallisation of a certain social text; in terms of inclusion and exclusion I think we are all clear on what opera, as phenomenon, precipitates. Simultaneous with our own moment, there is speculation on whether and how dolphin/delphic language will ever be understood, which is one of the things I was reading about when I was in the poem. This idea of performing something for which one might be said to be truly maladapted, like a dolphin singing an aria, but performing it nonetheless out of perverse formal obligation, is my nightmarish and honest vision of poetry: 'cry out elocution and become draped heroes', which is both the garlanded soprano and the flag-draped coffin. Hence also the opening of the book with the semi-choral script of 'ALL', in which decoding is instantly converted into the spectre of accomplishment. The book is partly concerned with the exploitation of animals, the supremacy and surety of the human; so 'Dolphin Aria' is a pun on 'dolphinarium'. I've written too much already. I'll just say that 'Limited Hours' might refer to the visiting periods in hospitals and prisons, and the countdown in which endangered animals (all animals) unknowingly live; and that 'A Love Song' following the colon is meant to suggest or question the conditions that enable and inflect the possibilities for certain kinds of aesthetic form and experience (experience is form; and the love song is the form of experience). What kind of love, being-together, repair, is possible in a horrific world? And what else?
What influenced this book?
I was working for a software company that moved me to their new office in New York in January of 2013. The company had software that ingested vast amounts of electronic documents (the whole internet) and then looked for statistically significant words and phrases within that corpus in order to figure out, at scale, the languages and topical contexts of those documents (webpages). I didn't understand it in any great detail, I just sold it to other companies; and then for a while I managed the development of new applications for it. As a way of thinking language, it was quite productive for me.
This was my first time in New York, even my first time outside Europe, and my impression was of an inhuman city. Anyone who has ever spent time in the Javits Center, at industry 'get-togethers' in the media world, watched the horses pull carriages around Columbus Circus, or done business lunch or drinks would agree with that impression without a second thought. It also seemed a city predicated on an enormous amount of suffering, both there and elsewhere. New York is made possible by impoverishment. I found this work stimulating on a day-to-day basis—'fun'—but in the long run both profoundly alienating and totally inhibiting. Readers who have worked in an office environment or in software development or media and many others might 'get' things like the SCRUM SONG and the poem's incessant intrusion of jargon. I would write absurd poems entirely out of things overheard on conference calls, or things I found myself saying at work. It was hard not to get the sense that language can be subjected to perversion by economic forces—something like the Lacanian sense of the pervert, so that one gets the sense that it 'knows' everything, totally. So essentially, I felt economically propelled in different manners—there was the necessity of work, I lived in Babylon, but I'd be dishonest if I didn't also say that I had money in my pocket then, too. I was feeling nostalgic for home (Northern Ireland), too: nostalgic for a relation to place which was not possible for me in New York and was no longer possible in Northern Ireland, either.
At the same time, I drew parallels between what I saw in my Arbeitswelt, my work-world, and in the social world surrounding poetry. I began to equate my alienation from work with a burgeoning revulsion for the social text of poetry, for the way its producers jockeyed and scrummed and marketed their too-obvious signals. This book is influenced by and evinces disgust with poetry. This was late 2013/early 2014. I don't feel quite the same way quite so much of the time now. But I'll reserve the right to turn over a new leaf.
I was reading a biography of Walter Benjamin. I was reading some of the poets I had met and come to know and love in New York. I was watching helicopter gunship footage and thinking about Karl Kraus. I was translating bits of Mayakovsky and Khlebnikov and vestiges of those found their way into the poem throughout. I was thinking about Kant's teleological argument from the apparent purposiveness of nature.
Where does this book fit into your career as a writer?
I should like not to have a career, except perhaps in the sense of the verb. This is the second volume I've published. It takes a lot of emotional effort for me to settle on publishing anything. Actually, that's wrong. I expend a lot of emotional effort on trying not to publish. It is when that will is exhausted, that things slip out. I am a perfectionist until I am wrong-footed. I'm now working on a series of translations of an Old English poem called The Ruin, which have been gestating for some time. It's an elegy in which the speaker comes across the stone ruins of a (probably) Roman city, long after the Roman Empire has ceased to meaningfully exist in the West. It makes me think of the American embassy in Baghdad. I am thinking of calling it IMPERIVM, or just Ruin.
If you had to convince a friend or colleague to read this book, what might you tell them?
Cajole them endlessly 'til they relent and purchase. I learnt that trick from my work in media.
Tell me about the last literary reading you attended.
I don't have much of use to say. I hate the idea that someone might look at me while I'm listening to poetry; consequently I can't always concentrate. I have no problem performing; that's something else.
The last reading I went to was my partner, Sophie Seita, with Ron Silliman, at Segue. Ron read to us about Wikileaks. I had two martinis and a few beers, went to a bar that begins with S, and argued with Josef for a long but indeterminate time. Somehow we got home half a pizza richer. I call that a good reading.
Tell us about your process: Pen and Paper, computer, notebooks ... how do you write?
I do everything in notebooks. I do not usually set out on 'projects'. I write what I'm thinking without specific intent and a set of concerns emerges, around which the work later organises. I'm a sonically driven writer; that is, the sound-patterns called for by the preceding lines drive what happens next. The necessary sounds arrive first, then constellate into words and phrases. I edit on the computer. I have lost a lot of those notebooks already. I scavenge. I like to cover my tracks. There are no rituals. Translation is a fallow field.
How do you handle a bad review of your work?
I've only ever had one review of my work. It was mostly bad, and I've forgotten what it said. So I suppose I do that.
Which writer would you most like to have a drink with, and why?
The ones I drink with now are the ones I most want to. I won't name names. Partly because it'll look like I'm doing coterie, which I hate; partly because it won't be credible; partly because of my love for, nah just kidding. Maybe I'd like a drink with David Jones, so I can tell him he's still being read and what his work is to me right now.
What's the worst advice you hear authors give writers?
'Write every day.'
Oh, and 'The line comes from the breathing of the man who writes'. That is Cracker-Barrel dogshit.
Where do you buy your books?
Borrowed from the library or bought at readings.
Who are you reading now?
Gavin Douglas's Eneados. Sam Newton's The Origins of Beowulf and the pre-Viking Kingdom of East Anglia. There are writers whose work I return to over and over. Timothy Thornton's Jocund Day. Prynne. Pound's Cathay. Sophie Seita. Mina Loy's 'Anglo-Mongrels and the Rose'. I admire Loy's wholesome sense of disgust for poetry. I was looking again at the first part of Hamlet. David Jones's Anathemata, which should be more widely acknowledged as equal to Finnegan's Wake. Various commentaries on The Anathemata. Rome's Wreck by Trevor Joyce. Everything Ian Heames has ever done in his delightful life.
Bonus Round:
What do you want the world to know about you? Make it juicy ....

Wood signs for Latics
Wood spent the start of pre-season at Bloomfield Road but was unable to agree terms to stay at the club.
He then spent time at Oldham making three friendly appearances enough to earn the former Manchester United player a two year contract.
Wood revealed to Oldham's official website that he rejected Blackpool's offer but was delighted to sign for the Latics.
Simon Grayson was hoping to sign Wood to complete his midfield but still has hopes of signing a 'creative' midfielder as well as a striker before the season opener against Brentford.

TEL AVIV (Nov. 19)
Contrary to initial reports, an Israeli soldier was injured in an attack on an army post in southern Lebanon on Wednesday that touched off an eight-hour artillery exchange.
Daniel Mann was hit in the chest by shrapnel while pursuing gunmen who directed fire from light weapons and rifle-propelled grenades at an Israeli position in the eastern sector of the Israeli-controlled security zone.
Initial reports said there had been no casualties among Israeli troops or the allied South Lebanon Army in the attack near Nabatiya.
The Iranian-backed Hezbollah denied it carried out the attack on the Israeli position. Reports from Lebanon said variously that the gunmen were members of a group called the Syrian National Party Upper Council of Lebanon, headed by Ana'am Raid, or of the National Resistance group of the Lebanese Communist Party.
Two roadside bombs were discovered in the area of the clash and dismantled without causing damage.
The two Hezbollah terrorists killed in the exchange brought to three the number killed in clashes with Israeli and South Lebanon Army troops within a period of 36 hours.
U.N. peacekeepers, meanwhile, apparently averted another attack on Israel.
Members of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon on Wednesday discovered and dismantled two Katyusha launchers in the Tyre region, north of the security zone.
Both had been aimed at Israel. A timing device attached to the rocket launchers was set to go off an hour later.

|Your Portal to the Oracle Knowledge Grid

Now that the LDAP-based Oracle Internet Directory (OID) can be used as a name resolution mechanism, I have to believe that the days of Oracle Names are limited. Why would anyone choose to use a propriatery tool like Names when you they could go with a standards-based solution such as OID? Also, I don't think Oracle wants to support both, so I think the handwriting is on the wall, and that Names will eventually be desupported.

One way or another, we've covered most bases for laptops this month – including two new netbooks. With the Eee PC S101, Asus is pushing the concept more upmarket - despite the fact it was portability and low price that first captured consumer attention.
Asus' first netbook, the Eee PC 701, was released a little over a year ago. Since then, every model has seen the price - and, admittedly, the spec - rise inexorably. The £449 S101 sits precariously close to entry-level full-size laptops. It's a plusher option than the original Eee, for sure, but may be too pricey for those looking for a runaround rather than a main machine. On the other hand, it's far less expensive than the four-figure price tags of executive ultraportables, in which company it can still hold its head high.
We've covered a clutch of affordable full-size laptops that hover around the £400 mark. If your budget doesn't stretch quite so far, the Toshiba NB100 is a £250 mini laptop that sports the best user interface we've seen. It's a specially made version of Ubuntu Linux, tuned for small screens.
See our Laptop Advisor website for expert reviews of today's best laptops, plus read our essential advice to make sure you choose the right specs
Moving upmarket, we've also looked at four models that have adopted the Blu-ray format. Blu-ray capability on a laptop is a pricey option, and its value is arguably undermined by the lower-than-HD resolution of most laptops' screens. You can always pipe out the video to an external 1,920x1,080 screen or HD TV, of course, provided the format's insidious digital rights management technology doesn't cause problems with playback.
That shouldn't be a problem for the Qosmio F50. Toshiba's laptop uses an additional quad-core processor to upscale standard-definition DVD content to appear as sharp as HD video.
In theory, such technology could remove the need to buy expensive Blu-ray films that are riddled with playback restrictions. In practice, oversharpening the picture just seems to lower the image quality.

Awareness raising and capacity building activities
Nijera Kori on a regular basis organises training sessions to enhance the analytical capabilities of the group members. Such trainings are normally organised with 20-25 participants.
At the basic level, trainings are provided to female and male members separately; while at advanced level, both female and male members participate together in joint training sessions.
Again, at the higher selection level training, the sessions are organised separately for women and men while at the advanced level of such training, the women and men sit in joint session. In recognition of the existing socio-religious values of the society, the gender dis-aggregated approach is followed, to create space for women so that they can express themselves freely and interact with fellow women at the initial stage of organisation building. Eventually as the groups continue to mature, joint sessions are organised at higher and/or advanced levels to create an environment of reciprocal interactions, to develop greater understanding and overcome gender bias.
When special training sessions are organised at the request of the groups, they are normally organised as joint sessions. It is worth noting that cultural trainings, both at the basic and advanced levels, are organised jointly with female and male cultural group members.

Can someone help explain some existing wording about SMIL in SpecGL? GL.3, Profiles, [1], there is this paragraph: "The SMIL Recommendations (e.g., [SMIL20]) illustrate several of these concepts. Modularization is an approach in which markup functionality is specified as a set of modules that contain semantically-related XML elements, attributes and attribute values. Profiling is a method for defining subsets of a specification by identifying the functionality, parameters, options, and/or implementation requirements necessary to satisfy the requirements of a particular community of users. In SMIL, it is the creation of an XML-based language through combining these modules, in order to provide the functionality required by a particular application. SMIL 2.0 defines all three of the concepts of modules, levels and profiles -- three modules (timing, ...), levels (regular, extended animation), and profiles are defined at the end of the specification." All is fine -- good and accurate -- until the last sentence. About "levels (regular, extended animation)" -- I can't find anything to support this in SMIL20. As you might guess from the "2.0", there was a 1.0. Some stuff has been added and some stuff has been deprecated. But unlike DOM and CSS, SMIL does not refer to itself as "SMIL level 1" or "SMIL level 2". So 1/2 indicates some (historical) leveling, but it is weak. ??? -Lofton.

Designing A Dining Room Rug
When making hand painted custom dining room rug for homeowners I am most excited about creating a new design.
Often a client sends a photo and says "paint this" or takes one of our house designs and we either modify the colors or tweak the design to fit into each unique interior décor.
In the case of Rodger and Sharon, we went on an odyssey of design concepts and colors to find the exact dining room rug that fit into their home, just right!
Contact Me!
First I received an email with a photo of their existing dining room rug. Sharon asked, "Can you replicate this design?" The canvas rug had been painted by another artist. When asked to replicate art I prefer to expand on the idea of the design. Copying another artist's work is not what I do.
Another email quickly followed with a photo of a traditional rug with the question" How would you incorporate this design into a rug?
I created a small painting using this design and after a couple of weeks I got a phone call.
Yes, you can call me! Laurels Originals has a toll free number and when you call I'll pick up to answer your questions (if I'm not out watering the garden or walking my dogs, then I'll call you back, promise)
So Rodger and I began a conversation on design features and measurements for the dining room rug. I made a small painting of this new design as well; three design options are included in the canvas rug contract.
Color Challenge
Meanwhile Sharon is investigating colors. Up until now we have been using oil based polyurethane to seal our rugs.
The oil base polyurethane adds a golden sheen to the paint color. It works well with most colors except for white and pastels. I had discovered a new water based product but was reluctant to use it without testing first.
After several coats I sanded it lightly and added one coat of the oil base. It made a small difference in the color but not as defined as the four coats I normally used. This was a technique I had tried previously and the rug has been in the lobby of the Finca Rosa Blanca Hotel for over a year and is holding up very well.
With colors selected, techniques refined, design fine-tuned, I embarked on the journey of this challenging and beautiful new design, unlike like anything I have ever painted before.
And that is what makes my "job" so exciting. The ultimate reward is comments like these.
Testimonials, My Favorite
Thank you Laurel for the creative genius of your interpretation of our vision.
As you can see, it looks amazing in our kitchen dinette nook.
I am so excited to put new colors and unique cushions to bring the eclectic look together.
Take care and thank it again.
I know Sharon sent you pictures of how the rug looks. If you want, feel free to give our name out as a reference….we are very pleased for what you did and how it looks…thank you
Please call or write if you want to discover the play and fulfillment of creating your own custom canvas rug. I'll be waiting !

Once upon a time, in the magical world of Narnia where it is always winter Toronto, there lived an Australian who loved her current life but also, as a result of being both excited about and terrified of the looming Unknown, had not slept well in a fortnight.
One morning, she awoke earlier than normal and, despite taking her time reading poetry over coffee in the lightening hours, found herself disembarking from the subway with enough time up her sleeve to run a mundane un-Princess-like errand.
She had to buy toothpaste.
And so, on that glittering grey morning, the Australian (who is currently writing you these words) skipped along in her crystal slippers to Shopper's Drug Mart, with the sole goal of buying toothpaste.
Twenty minutes later, she walked out with this:
Oh, and I thought I was buying the mini chocolate peanut butter cups, not the mini chocolate caramel cups. Ugh. (See my review of the Ritter Sport Marzipan here.)
As I'm sure many of you know, Oreos are ninja vegan.
Turns out that Simply Food Chocolate Vanilla Creme Sandwich Cookies, aka Shoppers Drug Mart's storebrand (cheaper) version of Oreos, are secretly vegan too.
They taste just like how I remember Oreos tasting.
By which I mean that they are best when spread with almond butter. Or peanut butter. Or any kind of nut butter, presumably.
And here we have Shoppers Drug Mart's storebrand (cheaper) version of Toblerone. Interestingly, while Toblerone Dark lists milk fat as an ingredient, this Premium Prestige Swiss Dark Chocolate with Honey Almond Nougat is dairy-free, though not vegan. (Well, that was interesting to me, anyway. At least three-quarters of you are likely very bored right now.)
Bravo, Shoppers Drug Mart, for mimicking Toblerone's unique pyramid shape closely enough to reinforce the similarity in your consumers' minds while simultaneously being different enough to (I assume) avoid a lawsuit.
Alas, I cannot claim that the knock-off version of Toblerone is on par with the real thing. Whereas Toblerone has distinct notes of honey and almond, Premium Prestige's dark chocolate tastes of… sugar. For a second I thought I caught hints of wine and raisins, but no. Just sugar. With some cocoa. And more sugar.
These confections did not live happily ever after.
The end.

Auto-shading mechanism in spirulina
In this article we talked about the importance of the light and learn how much light to give to your tank (where to place it inside your house), and why in some instances the light can damage your culture.
Here I'd like to introduce a very unique mechanism, super useful to know for growing spirulina at home, called the "auto-shading mechanism".
What is spirulina auto-shading mechanism?
The auto-shading mechanism comes from the Greek root αὐτός – autós: self / same, and it's basically, the ability of spirulina filaments to shade each other.
How does it work?
When spirulina cultures start, there aren't many spirulina filaments in the tank or pond. This means that each filament will be exposed to a lot of sunlight. As spirulina cells become denser, the filaments on top of the culture will shade the other ones lower in the water column. Spirulina can also change forms as a response to light intensity and go from the usual spiral form to a straight filament and vice and versa, to chance the amount of light or shade that goes down the water column.
Is it important when growing spirulina at home?
Yes it is! Very much so. If you grow spirulina at home, this is something you want to avoid. Harvesting straight spirulina is much more difficult because the straight spirulina won't go through the filters as well as the normal form and you'll end up breaking the cells and loosing a lot of your production.
So what to do?
- When you start your culture and there's only a few filaments, or when you just harvested, (check the image on the left on the illustration here under), you have to protect your spirulina from the damages of too much sun and shade the tank. You can use bamboos or an agricultural cloth.
- As the spirulina grow, you'll have more and more filaments that will shade and protect each others and you can slowly increase the sun exposure. However, you will need to have some agitation or aeration in the culture to allow a good circulation of the filaments in the water column, because you don't want the same guys to always be bombarded by the UV light!
- When the culture is dense enough, with a Secchi disc reading of 3 cm or less, spirulina will shade each other enough and you don't need to have any other type of shading on your tank. Here the agitation of the water column is crucial because the light won't penetrate as deep and you need to make sure the spirulina filaments that are on the bottom of the water column also get some light (=get to the surface of the aquarium) so you will have to increase the agitation to make sure that every filament of spirulina gets just the right balance of light and shade to grow and thrive. Once you have reach that stage, the production will increase with an increase of sunlight, up to the point of photolysis.
How to be sure?
Most of the time you can eyeball the state of your spirulina.
If you see that the spirulina is growing well, continue to reduce the shading progressively.
If you see that you go backwards (the Secchi reading is increasing), you might need to add some shading, especially if you live under the tropic.
For the geeks out there (like me 😉 ), light can be measured by a photometer, super easy to use and for a reasonable price to! I recommend this Luxmeter. Or you can make one yourself.

Here's a slightly different suggestion inspired by something Shane worked out. This one avoids any possible confusion with invalid combinations, and I think is easier to read: flex-direction: <orientation> [<horizontal-dir> <vertical-dir>?]? <orientation> = _rows_ | columns | horizontal | vertical <horizontal-dir> = ltr | rtl | _forward_ | reverse <vertical-dir> = ttb | btt | _forward_ | reverse The first keyword, which is required, gives the general orientation - the first two are writing-mode dependent, the latter two are physical. It specifies the axis on which the flexbox items will be laid out; lines will be stacked in the opposite axis. The second and third keywords, which are optional, specify, specifically, the direction in the (physical) horizontal axis and the vertical axis. By doing it this way, you avoid any of the "mixing physical and logical" confusion - it's perfectly well-defined and easy to mix them, since you're specifically saying "use the logical direction in the horizontal axis" or whatever. As indicated by the underscores, the default value is "flex-direction: rows" or "flex-direction: rows forward forward" (difference is irrelevant). This does *not* indicate whether the flexbox should wrap or not. I'm fine with that staying a separate flex-wrap property, as was previous discussed ("flex-wrap: _nowrap_ | wrap", with the option of "balance" later?). In the common cases, this seems to be pretty easy to deal with: * A horizontal toolbar, direction-dependent: "flex-direction: horizontal" * A horizontal toolbar, specific direction: "flex-direction: horizontal ltr" * A vertical toolbar, direction-dependent: "flex-direction: vertical" (will basically always be ttb, I think?) * A vertical toolbar, specific direction: "flex-direction: vertical ltr ttb" * A flexbox that should accompany text and follow it "down" the page: "flex-direction: columns" * Two vertical toolbars, one on each side of the page, stacking lines toward the center: #left { flex-direction: vertical ltr ttb; } #right { flex-direction: vertical rtl ttb; } The only thing that's slightly clumsy is that if you want to specify the direction of a vertical flexbox that doesn't wrap, you still have to specify the horizontal direction that the non-existent multiple lines would stack. I think that's a pretty minor problem, but if it's annoying, I can complicate the grammar a little bit and allow "vertical" to be accompanied by "ttb" or "btt". ~TJReceived on Monday, 25 July 2011 18:47:46 UTC

Taking game to great Hights
Oct. 19, 2013 at 5:19 a.m.
YOAKUM - Tre'Vontae Hights knew something good was in store for Yoakum when it lined up to take his first snap against Cuero.
"We knew from the jump we were going to get a big play the first play from just looking at film and seeing what they were doing," he said. "We didn't know it was going to be a touchdown. It just happened to be a touchdown."
Hights ran 71 yards for a score, and Yoakum went on to a 41-20 District 26-3A win over the Gobblers on a rainy Friday night at Bulldog Stadium.
The touchdown run was the start of a special night for Hights. The junior quarterback carried 29 times for 188 yards and three touchdowns and passed for 107 yards and one touchdown.
"He's an athlete," said Yoakum coach Brent Kornegay. "Tre'vontae is a special kid, but you've got to give credit to the other 10 guys with him."
The Bulldogs took their third straight win in the 103rd meeting of the DeWitt County rivals and evened their record at 3-3 while improving to 2-0 in district.
"Our kids executed the game plan," Kornegay said. "I felt like we would have an opportunity to do some of the things that we could do."
Hights ran Yoakum's zone read offense to near perfection. He either kept the ball or handed off to running backs Terrance Hall (11 carries for 89 yards) or T.J. Hights (10 carries for 44 yards).
He also completed 6 of 9 passes, including a 57-yard touchdown pass to Timmy Blakeney.
"Tre'vontae had a good game, and we had some things for T.J. and some things for Terrance, too, and they all executed it," Kornegay said. "Up front, I can't say enough about those guys. They played well."
Yoakum also forced two turnovers and scored on a 25-yard interception return by Dantey Eldridge.
"We knew it was going to be wet," Tre'Vontae Hights said. "Last time, we had a wet game, we had tons of turnovers. We tried to limit turnovers. We did that tonight and came out with a win."
Yoakum ran 59 plays to 43 for Cuero (4-2, 1-1), which had only 98 yards of rushing and scored two offensive touchdowns - the other score came on a 91-yard kickoff return by D'Andre Gallagher.
"Tre'Vontae is a great player," said Cuero coach Travis Reeve. "He's very difficult to defend. They've got a really good football team and give those guys credit tonight. I thought Yoakum played exceptionally well and deserved to win."
Cuero leads the series 66-31-6, but Yoakum has won three straight for the first time since the 1952, '53 and '54 games.
"It's a new era just like last year when Keith (Ratley) said it," Tre'Vontae Hights said. "We've started something nice."

Tennessee hires former Texas coach Rick Barnes
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — When Rick Barnes gave his farewell press conference after an unwanted exit from Texas, Rick Barnes predicted he'd be coaching again "quicker than you probably think."
It turns out Barnes already had a pretty good idea where he'd end up.
Barnes had begun talking to Tennessee athletic director Dave Hart about the Volunteers' coaching vacancy Saturday, the day before his departure from Texas was announced. His move from one shade of orange to another became official Tuesday when Barnes was introduced as Tennessee's new men's basketball coach.
"At that point in time, yes, it was something that had been discussed and it was something I truly wanted to see happen," Barnes said.
Barnes succeeds Donnie Tyndall, who was fired Friday after going 16-16 in his lone season at Tennessee amid an NCAA investigation into his two-year tenure at Southern Mississippi. Barnes agreed to terms on a six-year contract that will pay him $2.25 million annually.
The 60-year-old Barnes will be Tennessee's fourth coach in six seasons, and the Volunteers are counting on him to provide stability. Barnes went 402-180 in 17 seasons at Texas, including a Final Four appearance in 2003.
He is 604-314 in 28 seasons overall with stops at George Mason, Providence and Clemson. Barnes has 22 NCAA Tournament appearances — two more than Tennessee has made in its entire history. He has earned NCAA bids 19 of the last 20 seasons.
"We are very, very fortunate today to have hired an elite basketball coach," Hart said. "That's what Rick Barnes is. He is definitely an elite coach."
Hart's admiration of Barnes was evident in Tennessee's pursuit of him. Hart said he flew to Austin, Texas, on Sunday and accompanied Barnes on his trip to Knoxville shortly after that farewell press conference.
"From that moment on, we literally have been together around the clock," Hart said.
And in the end, Tennessee landed a veteran coach who is savoring a new opportunity.
Texas announced Barnes' departure in a university release that described it as a mutual decision. Barnes made it clear at his farewell news conference that he was fired and that he told Texas athletic director Steve Patterson he wanted to stay. Barnes said he was given the choice of firing his staff or being fired himself.
"I am driven," Barnes said. "I've had one goal in my life and that would be the chance to play for a national championship. This is a university that provides you with everything you need to do that. I realize how hard that is to do… but that's the standard we'll set."
Although Barnes' only Southeastern Conference experience is a brief stint as an Alabama assistant from 1986-86, he has plenty of familiarity with his new campus and new boss.
Barnes said he was an assistant coach at George Mason in 1987 when he interviewed for a head coaching opportunity at East Carolina, where Hart was working at the time.
"For some reason, he didn't hire me," Barnes quipped. "I'm thankful this time that he did."
Barnes' ties to Tennessee began much earlier.
He grew up in Hickory, North Carolina, about 200 miles east of Knoxville. He frequently visited Tennessee's campus in 1974 while dating his wife, Candy, a 1975 Tennessee alum. He recalled watching Condredge Holloway lead Tennessee's football team to a victory over Tulsa and regularly stopping at an area deli for roast beef sandwiches before heading back to Hickory.
"In some ways, I feel like I'm coming home," Barnes said.
The Vols are hoping he stays "home" for several years to come, ending the recent revolving-door nature of their coaching position.
Bruce Pearl was fired in 2011 amid an NCAA investigation. Pearl was replaced by Cuonzo Martin, who left for California after three seasons. Tyndall took over for Martin last year.
"We needed badly to have stability, and he will bring us some," Hart said. "He will bring a level of maturity, a level of success that will serve us very well."
Barnes has a tough job ahead of him.
Tennessee loses all-SEC guard Josh Richardson to graduation and doesn't return any proven point guards or post scorers. That could make it tough for him to match the success he produced at Texas, where Barnes fell out of favor despite earning NCAA bids in 16 of his 17 seasons.
Barnes led Texas to the Sweet 16 five times, one Final Four and three trips to the regional finals — but hadn't advanced the Longhorns beyond the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament since 2008.
"If you told me we were going to 16 of 17 NCAA Tournaments, I would be dancing in the streets," Hart said. "It's in the eye of the beholder."

David won her fifth successive world squash title 11-6 11-8 11-6 - her seventh in all - against a spirited Massaro, who was playing her first world final.
The 29 year-old Lancastrian said: "We're all working to get closer, but she just steps up to the challenge."
In Fridays final, Massaro did indeed try and quell David's dominance. England's No 1 led 7-5 in the second game, too, but the Malaysian's speed and change of direction proved too much.
Despite having six world titles in the bag already, winning the sport's showpiece event lifted considerable pressure on David, who is revered in Malaysia.
"I can't believe it," she said. "I just can't believe it."
"I am just so pleased with my match. Laura pushed me every point. There was no point where I could let up because she was just on it every point. She played a very good match."

in reply to Read any good books lately?
In 1979 I was paid nearly a month to write a program that would do a linear regression of experimental data and draw a graph of the resulting line on an x-y plotter. Just a few years later, a $100 calculator would do the same thing.
So, yes, it is highly likely that you will eventually see websites commodified to the point that they are produced by children's toys.
But - there will always be something else to program. The skill is not "website programming", it's just "programming".

Law Students > Pursuing an LLM
Getting ABA after the bar.
(1/5) > >>
Yuki Sprite:
I graduated from a non-ABA California law school, passed the bar exam, got sworn in, etc.
My question now is, how do I get ABA accreditation???
I don't want to repeat 3 years of law school, so I'm wondering if I can get an LLM from an ABA school that will give me all the rights and privileges afforded to ABA JDs. Would the LLM need to be in a specific major? I read somewhere that most states just require that the applicant have 26 ABA-Accredited credits in bar exam subjects. Could I complete an LLM designed for foreign lawyers? Or, would it be possible for me to get an LLM that is specialized (i.e. tax or business law).
I'm not planning on practicing law. So, this is more of a career move than a professional (law practice) move. I'm planning on starting work by the end of this year, so something I could do part time would be preferable (like Professional (summer school), online (I've sort-of had enough of online), or evenings) I would also prefer the best brand name I could get.
Any input on this issue would be greatly appreciated.
Btw, sorry for any typos, I'm writing this at 3:50 in the morning.
Why do you need the ABA accreditation if you don't want to practice law? It's not quite clear what you want to do. If you want an LLM, does that mean you want to teach law? Is the school you went to state accredited?
Yuki Sprite:
State accredited...? Not sure. I'm licensed to practice CA law and I can go through the motions to become licensed to practice federal law as well.
But, I think my school's website says that it is not accredited by CA. I'm not clear on those technicalities.
The reason I'm wondering about getting ABA is, in part, because I think that having a fully accredited degree would look better on a resume (duh), and also just because I'm curious. On a bit of a side note, I'm studying for the CPA exam, and if I where to be able to get an LLM in tax and get ABA accreditation at the same time... couldn't hurt.
Maintain FL 350:
Well, there are a few things to consider.
First, the ABA does not accredit LL.M programs, only J.D. programs. A particular law school may have ABA approval and may also grant LL.Ms, but the LL.M program itself will not be ABA accredited. Even if you got an LL.M from Harvard, for example, that would not qualify you to sit for most state's bar exams. Most states require that you have an ABA-accredited J.D. Foreign lawyers can sometimes get an LL.M and practice in the U.S., but it really depends on where they went to law school (some foreign degrees are recognized by some states, others aren't), and what state they want to practice in. In short, your J.D. really determines whether your legal education is ABA approved.
You need to find out what accreditation your law school has. If it's non-ABA and non-CBE (CA state), then it's probably unaccredited. Sometimes these school advertise themselves as being "Registered with the California State Bar" or something like that. This is important because many LL.M programs will require that your J.D. be from an ABA accredited school. Some, however, don't. You'll need to check out each individual school.
Here is the main issue: you said that you don't want to practice law. If that is the case, spending tens of thousands of dollars on an LL.M is pointless. Please understand that I'm not trying to be rude or overly critical, it's just a fact. For the vast majority of legal jobs (other than tax and maybe natural resources law) an LL.M is usually uneccessary. For non-legal jobs an LL.M is completely uneccessary. For non-legal jobs an LL.M, even from a big name school, is probably not going to help.
Yuki Sprite:
So my school is registered as an unaccredited law school.
Purely out of curiosity, as a CA attorney from an unaccredited law school, what would be the absolute fastest way to get a JD that is accredited by the ABA? Is an ABA-accredited school allowed to accept any transfer credits from an unaccredited school?
(kind-of sounds nice to go to law school and not have to worry about taking the bar exam at the end :)

Look! Sprout Home's Ceramic Animal Banks
After 72 hours of checking out stores that we don't have in Kansas City, we came across these brightly colored ceramic animal banks at Sprout Home. Each one is over a foot tall (or wide, depending on the animal), and is sure to capture the hearts of kids and adults alike. Having zero resistance against their colorful cuteness we purchased one on the spot! Click through to find out which and to get more information about these great accent pieces!
The listing on Sprout's website contains rabbits, sheep and geese. Our hearts melted when we came across their display atop a cart full of plants. The orange rabbit simply had to come home with us and although we know we will love him at home, the box wasn't the most friendly to carry around town as we continued our sightseeing and shopping adventures.
If a brightly colored bank isn't your thing, it would be great just sitting on it's own on a mantle or dresser or even given as a present. It's a piece that is sure to be loved for years to come! They retail for $26 and are available online!

A lot has changed in the music industry since Kevin Moore launched his blues music career under the name Keb' Mo' 20 years ago.
Major labels have dissolved. A DIY movement among musicians has sprung up, fueled by social media and the increasing ease with which music can be produced.
Moore, whose last three albums have been on independent labels, has rolled with the changes.
With the help of his wife, he tweets and posts to his Facebook page, but "I've always been one who would rather spend time in a room with a piece of paper and a guitar, writing and recording things," the musician, now 62, said in an interview from California last week.
Moore has stayed relevant and maintained a loyal following in the ongoing evolution of blues.
Last month, he released "BLUESAmericana," his 12th studio album, on the Nashville-based Kind of Blue Music label.
The 10-track release brings the bluesman back to his roots, with works that transport listeners from the Mississippi Delta to the streets of New Orleans.
Moore's last album, 2011's "The Reflection," experimented with jazz and soul influences, and featured cameos from saxophonist Dave Koz, neo-soul singer India.Arie and country musician Vince Gill.
"That album confused people a little bit," Moore said. "I really loved it. I was very proud of that project, but it was a different kind of album than people were expecting."
Moore said, in music, people like you to stick to your brand, which is fine by him.
"I don't like being locked in a corner," he said. "That being said, if you stand in a corner, brandwise, the challenge is to figure out ways to find a source of infinite creativity in that space."
Moore is comfortable in taking on such challenges.
"I can do that all day long."
