There's no metallic like a dark metallic. Light silver and gold can look cheap and plasticky even on the best leather, but when shades of dark bronze and gunmetal are involved, the end result is almost always incredibly chic. Embossed snakeskin tends to look tacky when combined with metallics in particular, but the Whiting & Davis Snake-Embossed Leather and Metal Mesh Clutch pulls off the look with considerable style. (more…)
Was Valentino the first handbag company to master the leather flower, or are they just so masterful at it that I fail to remember all those that came before? Either way, more companies are giving it a shot, including the folks behind the Isabella Fiore Belle Fleur Alexandria Hobo.
Is it successful? Well, obviously not as much as your average Valentino bag, but it also costs a lot less. Let's delve a bit deeper, after the jump. (more…)
Now this handbag is something I wouldn't have expected to come from Botkier. In fact, I really had to stop and look at this bag rather closely in order to give it a fair review. Sometimes it is difficult for me to give an unbiased review when the bag seems so different, so outside of my personal realm of preference. However, I am going to try really hard with the Botkier Orion Snake Embossed Small Shoulder Bag. (more…)
Posting a bag that looks like this always makes me a little nervous. Well, scratch that. Posting a bag like this only makes me nervous when I LIKE it, and I feel like I'm about to be told how wrong I am and how ugly it is. Bloggers have feelings to. Well, sort of, anyway.
But I can't help it. I think the Alison Wood Max's Kansas City Hobo is really interesting and well-executed. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it. You will not convince me otherwise! Plus, it's a bag that not all of your friends have (yet). (more…)
Maybe it's just because my past weekend was filled with nights out and cute (if I do say so myself) outfits, but this week, I can't help but be drawn to clutches that I could possibly implement in my fall wardrobe. Since I'm in my early 20s, work from home, and live in a party town with a bunch of booze hounds, I end up using my clutches just as much (if not more than) I use my everyday totes and hobos.
I have managed to curate a small collection of them that get used over and over again, and I've got my eye out for more, as always. And lately, my eye has fallen on the Rebecca Minkoff Three-Zip Rocker. And how could I resist it? This little bag is just so freakin' sparkly. (more…)
This is the first week of school here in Athens, Georgia. We are, of course, home of the University of Georgia and, since it's mid-August, it's time for the 35,000 students to show back up in town, like the swallows to Capistrano. Or something. It also means that I practically get a free post: it's time to write about my favorite school bag of the season! These kinds of things write themselves, folks.
And this year, there is little to no competition. The Treesje Mortale Travel Tote is easily my favorite and definitely what I would be carrying, were I to be hauling my rear end up and down the nearly two-mile-long, hill-laden campus that resides mere minutes away. (more…)
Black leather? Gunmetal hardware? A hobo shape? Fashion meets function? There's nothing I love more, obviously.
Well, except for seeing a bag I already love made even better, and that's exactly what the new iteration of the Rebecca Minkoff Studded Devote Tote is. (more…)
In general, I really don't like so-called "neutral bags." The leather has to be truly special, the design truly innovative and beautiful for me to look at one twice, and if it's not, I bore really easily. My aversion is a result of the belief that there are so many bags out there made in so many beautiful colors, why would anyone choose one in a color that is supposed to, by definition, blend in and hide?
But when I do like a neutral, that neutral is almost always some version of pewter or gunmetal, and the Burberry Metallic Leather Hobo is a great example of that color. It's not a bright silver at all – it has a lot of grey in it, but enough shine and innate glimmer to make it decidedly glam and metallic. I can see it going with almost anything, but I can't imagine it blending in and hiding at all, as the "neutral" moniker would indicate. So if you're going to do something neutral, please do something with at least a LITTLE BIT of a kick. Buy through Nordstrom for $1795.

Go RCB!
So, after the Delhi loss yesterday, I can now whole-heartedly concentrate on RCB. I am sad for Delhi, even after such a consistent performance, they were thrown out in a trice. I so wanted them to go to the finals! But alas, History repeated itself, in their case.
Hmm, It's RCB *Royal Challengers Bangalore* Vs. CSK *Chennai Super Kings* today. CSK opted for batting first, and well, made 146 for 5 in 20 overs. That will mean roughly 7.4 runs per over for Bangalore to beat them. Kallis, Dravid, Pandey, Taylor,Kohli we're dependent on you guys!
Not unachievable, isn't it?
I am so nervous, I so hope they make it. Go RCB, go on! Mallya, give them a sip, man! (To boost there spirits, lol.) All the best!
Dho dena Dhoni ki!

Hello and welcome to a new series of articles which will explore the wisdom to be found in classic children's books! Some of you have graduated and the rest are eagerly awaiting (probably not) the start of the new academic year. Due to this, the aim of this series is to provide a bit of insight, inspiration and general life advice to students, graduates and everyone else!
At this point you may be thinking that's all very well, but why children's books? Aren't they just outlandish stories and bright colours that serve to keep kids entertained just before bed time? Yes…and no. "Perhaps you will forgive me if I turn from my own feelings to the words of another splendid bugger: W.H. Auden" – he said "there are no good books which are only for children". Auden was a poet and is widely considered to be one of the greatest writers of the 20th century, and of course, his sentiments here are the absolute truth.
The books we read/were read to us as children enthralled us, captured our imagination, made us wonder, made us dream, made us laugh, made us smile, inspired us and of course sent us off to sleep in the best possible way. And it is very likely that you still have a fondness for those books to this day. They stayed with you, and they did so for a reason. As children, we don't have the cognitive capacity and experience to understand the true depth of the words being used. Therefore the books function well on an entertainment level when we are children, and only in adulthood do we realise the books are rarely as simple as they once seemed. This idea is even the backbone behind an exhibition at the New York Public Library, 'The ABC of It: Why Children's Books Matter', which explores the social, historical and artisitic importance of children's books over centuries. Children's book historian Leonard Marcus, the curator of the exhibition, sums up the importance of children's books in one fine sentence – "they are the message-in-a-bottle that each generation tosses out to the next generation". Hence I believe they are a fine source of timeless wisdom, for children and adults alike.
In addition to housing the finest evidence for why children's books matter, The New York Public Library also houses the focus of this particular article: the bear of little brain with a tummy full of 'hunny', Winnie the Pooh! A.A. Milne, creator and writer of the Winnie the Pooh stories, often said his writing was not just intended for children. Therefore, I think his work is the perfect place to start with this series.
Winnie the Pooh is without doubt one of the most beloved characters of all time. He first appeared in print in 1924 and became a member of the Disney family in 1961. If you've ever read or seen anything Pooh related, you'll know that he is a wise little bear with the answers to all of life's problems. A Pooh like attitude to life is certain to make your days brighter and easier! So here we go, some bits of timeless advice from the lovable bear himself:
Breakfast Is Important
When you wake up in the morning, Pooh," said Piglet at last, "what's the first thing you say to yourself?"
"What's for breakfast?" said Pooh. "What do you say, Piglet?"
"I say, I wonder what's going to happen exciting today?" said Piglet.
Pooh nodded thoughtfully. "It's the same thing," he said.
You've all heard the old adage that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. However you may not know it is especially important if you are trying to learn something and be productive (that's what students do anyway right?). A study by Baumeister and Alquist, 2009 showed than when we are hungry, it is harder to control unwanted behaviours. So essentially, this means less focus and more procrastination! Not ideal if you are trying to get something important done. Researchers at Leeds University have been studying the effect of breakfast on the academic performance of children. And of course they found that kids who had breakfast had better analytical skills and performance throughout the day than those who skipped breakfast. There is a lot of data out there which conclusively proves breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and it is handily summed up in this infographic and this one too. One particularly relevant piece of research illustrated in the infographics suggest that students who eat breakfast have better grades than those who don't – so that is reason enough to never skip it!
On a similar note, tea solves everything!
I don't feel very much like Pooh today," said Pooh.
"There there," said Piglet. "I'll bring you tea and honey until you do.
This one doesn't need backing from studies, you know it's true! But here is a study anyway from UCL to illustrate that yes, tea actually does reduce stress in times of crisis. Tea even diffused an EDL protest a few months ago!
Be Nice
A little consideration, a little thought for others, makes all the difference.
Just because an animal is large, it doesn't mean he doesn't want kindness; however big Tigger seems to be, remember that he wants as much kindness as Roo.
This is another one, like the tea point above, that doesn't need any scientific backing. Just be nice (you can start by offering a cup of tea). Chris Addison, comedian and regular Mock the Week panellist, is an alumnus of the University of Birmingham. As part of the degree congregations this year, he received an honorary doctorate from the University. The speech he gave at the ceremony is essential watching for all students and especially graduates. It is so refreshingly honest, genuine and it is not at all littered with platitudinous statements. In it he gives 8 pieces of advice he wished he'd known when he graduated. For his main and most important point, he emailed everyone he knew and asked what is the one piece of advice they would give to a graduate today. And what did most of them say? Two simple words: be nice. Simple as that. "It is the single most important thing you can do in your life for other people and for yourself" he said. If you only click on one link in this article, make it his speech below (starts at 7.50):
Be Proactive
You can't stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.
If you want something, go get it. Nothing at all will land in your lap without hard work. It's easier to drift along with everyone else than it is to push out of your comfort zone and make things happen. You don't like your circumstances? Do something about it. If you fail it's a lesson and at least you can say you tried. Don't allow yourself to get to your 50's and say well I could have done this, I could have done that – now is your time to do what you want and build things the way you want them to be. As Chris Addison said for his second point in the above speech: "If it doesn't exist, build it. If the opportunity that you want, the position that you want to get doesn't exist, if nobody's prepared to give it you – build it for yourself". Go for the speculative PhD or job application option if you can't find anything that interests you, do lots of voluntary work, build your skills, build your experience – anything that'll move you, even an inch, towards where you want to be. Whatever you want, build it. This is your life and you have the ultimate control over it.
Keep Your Words Simple
It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?"
Don't write to be fancy and impress. Write to be concise and precise. Writing with the fewest words possible is the best way to get an idea across. To help you with this, here is a list of long words, phrases and redundancies and their many shorter alternatives. Using bigger words, when writing or speaking, does not make you seem smarter either, in fact research shows it has the opposite effect. The classic book on writing, The Elements of Style, reminds us that it is always better to use short words where they will work. This book is invaluable when it comes to any form of writing at University and also post-university, so do check it out!
Behold The Elements of Style rap below!
That's all the advice for this week! The next part of this series will be up in 2 weeks, with some more exploration of Winnie's wisdom mixed with a lot more psychology and science.
One Last Thing…
Take a look at this picture…
That's right. There is a well known theory that has been floating around for years which states that all of the characters in the Winnie the Pooh stories represent different Mental Health Disorders. This all started back in the year 2000 when a paper was published in the Canadian Medical Journal examining the inhabitants of Hundred Acre Wood from a neurodevelopmental perspective: "On the surface it is an innocent world but on closer examination by our group of experts we find a forest where neurodevelopmental and psychosocial problems go unrecognized and untreated".
EDIT: Part 2 is now up!

Thinking about cancer or dealing with cancer risk can be scary or overwhelming, but we believe that receiving information and resources is comforting, empowering, and lifesaving.
Under Medicare's guidelines, BRCA1 and BRCA2 genetic testing is covered for people with:
Medicare operates on a regional system in which Medicare Area Contractors (MACs) manage the provision of health services for a specific jurisdiction. In the spring of 2015, four MACs expanded their coverage to better align their services with National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines in a number of important areas, including:
It is important to note that these policy changes apply only to states covered by the four MACs:
Arkansas, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Kentucky, Montana, Nevada, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia and Wyoming
Medicare does not currently cover the cost of genetic testing in individuals who do not have a personal history of cancer.

Early in the morning, before we begin our work,
we praise your glory.
Renew our bodies as fresh as the morning flowers.
Open our inner eyes, as the sun cast new light upon the
darkness which prevailed over the night.
Deliver us from captivity.
Give us wings of freedom like the birds in the sky,
to begin a new journey.
Restore justice and freedom, as a mighty stream
running continuously as day follows day.
We thank you for the gift of this morning,
and a new day to work with you.
Takenaka, Masau

How It Works
Our Statements
- Anyone can signup in Oziway.
- Anyone can post products and services for sale on Oziway.
- Anyone can promote products and services posted by others on Oziway.
- Anyone can buy those products and services on Oziway.
- Anyone can do any or all of the above.
What types of Products are on Oziway (and what can be Sold and Promoted)
There are 6 types of Products in Oziway:
- New Unlimited – Products available in an unlimited quantity (e.g. from a manufacturer or wholesaler).
- New Limited – Products available in limited quantities (e.g. you have 10 pieces of a product to sell).
- Digital/Downloadable – products that Sellers upload to Oziway (e.g. databases or PDF books).
- Services – local services (e.g. you advertise your services as a personal sports trainer).
- Unpaid Services – like business leads (e.g. the transaction is made when a customer supplies their contact details to an insurance agent and the agent sells them an insurance policy).
- Used Products – products that can cost something or can be for free (e.g. you want to get rid of your unnecessary stuff, in a responsible way).
How to Promote Products
You promote products just like you would share any other information on the internet or with your friends. Normally you send information via email, sms, maybe post to your favorite social network. Here it works the same. You receive from us your own "internet store" address, and that is what you promote.
Your store address will look like: https://oziway.[your-country-code]/shop/yourstorename/. For example: if you name your store "test-store" and you live in Australia, your store address would be: https://oziway.com.au/shop/test-store/.
Your store will be full of products from categories that you have chosen when you setup your profile. If we do not yet have products in your country on Oziway, the domain will be oziway.com and the link will be https://oziway.com/shop/yourstorename/. The more signups we have from Promotors in your country, the quicker we will setup Products from Sellers in your country and the quicker your country domain will be active.
You can send links to your store or you can send links to individual products that you have in your store. This is good if you know that a friend is interested in a particular product. You can also start sending a Promotor signup link (that you will find in your Business Dashboard) to people that don't want to buy anything, instead they want to earn a commission like you.
You can promote these links by sending them via your own email, or you can post it to a social network wall, or use a special Oziway mobile application that you can install on your phone (download from Apple Appstore or Google Playstore). The application is very easy to use and it works together with all your social apps installed on the phone.
What Products Can Be Promoted
When you signup at Oziway, you need to setup your profile. Fill in your: telephone number, email address, marketing messages and choose your product categories, and also choose your country of choice (where you intend to promote the store). Its best to use the same email address that you use in PayPal, or mobile phone that you use in WeChat (China), as these are the accounts that we will be making payouts to. You receive from us your own "internet store" address full of products within the categories that you have chosen. You can change your profile and choose different categories at any time.
All the products within the categories that you have chosen, get automatically added to your store and are there for people to buy. If new products are added to Oziway, they will appear in your store automatically.
Who Delivers the Products to the Buyer
The Seller delivers the products - don't worry, you don't have to send any product to anyone. All you do is promote your Oziway links. It is the Seller (the Supplier) that sends the product, collects the money and pays the commission to Oziway (we will issue a business invoice) so that we can pay you and other Promotors.
Mobile App For Promotors
Go to Apple Appstore or Google Playstore and install the application called Oziway.
The app allows you to:
- Monitor how many friends and transactions are being made in your organization
- Add friends as Promotors (or Customers) to your Oziway organization
- Send sign up links to potential Promotors via any application on your mobile phone
- Send the link to your internet store via any application on your mobile phone
- Send the link to any product (not only on your store) via any application on your mobile phone
Active Commission
Active Commission is what you earn when your promotion directly results in a transaction being made. You told someone about your store or a particular product and that person signed up via your link, and bought the product. As soon as we receive the commission from the Seller, we pay most of it to you. Your commission is then called 1st level commission. A small part of that commission will stay in Oziway.
Passive Commission
Passive Commission is what you earn when you invite a friend to be a Promotor in Oziway, and that friend promotes their own store or product which results in a transaction being made. The friend told someone about their store or a particular product and that someone bought the product. As soon as we receive the commission from the Seller, we pay most of the commission to your friend, but you also receive a smaller part of the commission for growing your organization. Your commission is then called the 2nd level commission and your friends commission is called the 1st level commission. A small part of that commission will stay in Oziway.
How Much Can You Earn in Oziway as a Promotor
It depend on two things:
- How well you promote
- How well you grow your organization
Remember that it is best not to sell products actively (active sale is harder these days), but provide helpful information when you hear that someone needs a product that you have available. It is also very important to grow your organization, and that your friends that are in your organization, grow their organizations also. This will be the basis for Passive Commission.
Your Customers Are Yours - For Ever
If you invite a customer who joins Oziway and makes a purchase, you will receive a commission from this Customers order as well as all subsequent orders. Once the customer registers from your referral link, the customer is "yours". You will receive a commission from this customer even if he makes purchases later on, even from other Promotors links. This goes both ways – if the customer is already registered by another Promotor and then he makes a purchase from your store, you will not receive any commission, because the Customer belongs to another Promotor.
Lets look at this in detail, because it is important to understand the mechanism of Oziway referral system:
Example 1:
You were invited by your friend to Oziway. You are actively promoting, and a Customer registers in Oziway using your referral link (that you sent from the mobile app or from the Business Dashboard of Oziway). The Customer makes a purchase of a product, pays for the product and the product is delivered, and the Seller pays the commission to Oziway. We distribute this commission so that you receive most of it, and some also is allocated to your friend that invited you to Oziway. Even if the Customer makes subsequent purchases from another Promotors link, it does not matter. The Customer is in your organization because the Customer registered with Oziway from your link. Customers can not switch organizations, unless they register again using another email address.
Example 2:
You are inviting Promotors actively and you invite your friend to register with Oziway, the friend registers in Oziway using your referral link to the login/registration page. The friend starts Promoting Products and services using own links (from Business Dashboard or mobile app). Your friend finds a Customer that registers in Oziway. Every purchase of that Customer (with payments made by Customer and by the Seller of the commissions) mean that commission is allocated in large part to your friend but also a small part is allocated to you. The customer can not switch to another organization, unless the Customer registers again using a different email.
Example 3:
You send a link to a Customer who is already a member of Oziway. If the Customer registered with Oziway not from your link, you will receive no commission from purchases of that Customer, because that Customer belongs to another organization (another Promotor).
Make Your Organization International
In Oziway there are no boundaries. Even though it makes more sense to Promote the products in your home country to your friends, you can recruit Promotors around the world. And the more promotors are in your organization, the better chance you will have of receiving attractive passive income.
What Currency is Used For Calculation of Payout
All commissions are calculated using the base currency of the original purchase by the Customer - the purchase thanks to which you are entitled to a commission. If You have promoted a product in the Australian store, you will have your commission calculated in Australian Dollars. If you have promoted a product in the Chinese store, you will have your commission calculated in Chinese Yuan.
The actual Payment of the Payout is a different story. All payouts are converted into a single currency which then is transferred to your account in your currency, whichever currency that might be. Read the chapter "How We Send The Payouts".
How We Send The Payouts
Payouts of Commissions to Promotors and Payments to Sellers for Purchases of their Digital (Downloadable) Products.
All digital goods go through the Oziway payment system. The Customer pays to Oziway, we deduct the declared commission, then pay the Seller of the product and the Promotors their commission.
The payout amount (whether it's a Commission or Payment from the sale of a Digital Product) is added to your balance in Oziway. As soon as we receive a request from you to make a payout, we use either PayPal or WeChat (in China) to transfer funds to your account. If you want to receive a payout to a different email address (in Paypal) or a different mobile number (in WeChat) then the one which is registered with us, then on the Payout Request Form you can enter this data in the comments field. Please note that such payout requests might take longer to be fulfilled, since we have to verify the data.
A Payment Fee is subject to each payout request (please see Terms and Conditions) to cover the costs of Administration and the Payment Gateway.
Do Any Formal Forms or Papers Need to Be Filled Out Before The Payout
No, we do not require any forms to be filled out by anyone, whether you are receiving a payout as a Promotor or a payment as a Seller of a digital product. All payouts (commission or payment from the sale of digital products) are made just based on a Payout Request on the Business Dashboard of https://oziway.net
Does Oziway Deduct Any Tax From Payouts
No, we do not deduct any taxes, but you should pay taxes and other appropriate levies in your own country. We do not inform your country tax office about your earnings. This is your obligation. By using this service, you take the responsibility of reporting your own earnings to Your authorities.
Be a Professional Promotor
From time to time, we will have special, high income "premium" projects. We will contact directly those Promotors that have a track record of good organization growth.
The secret of success in Oziway:
Grow your Organization locally and internationally by inviting Promotors and Customers.
How To Sell Products
If you want to offer a product or service, go to Oziway.net and login to your Business Panel. There you will find an option to "Sell Own Product". Posting a product or service is FREE. It does not cost you anything at the time of posting online. All that you need is to specify the % commission that you will pay to oziway (and we will pay the Promotors) once your product is promoted so that a customer buys it. You only pay the % commission once you receive the payment from the customer and deliver the product.
How do You (Seller) get paid for Physical products that need to be shipped
The customer pays you directly (offline). You make payment and delivery arrangements with the Customer. If you want to receive the money online via Oziway payments, please contact us: https://oziway.net/contact.
How Do You (Seller) Know Who to Deliver Physical Products or Services to
Login to your Business Dashboard: https://oziway.net/. There you will find a List of Pending Transactions – transactions that need to be accepted (OK) or rejected (FAIL). You have a number of days (that you entered when you posted a product) to verify that a transaction took place, therefore to Accept (OK) the transaction, or to Reject (FAIL). You reject the transaction if it did not finalize. You will not have to pay commission for rejected transactions.
How Do You (Seller) Pay The Commission For The Sale of Physical Products
Login to Your Business Dashboard: https://oziway.net/. There you will find a List of Transactions that need to be accepted (OK - delivered) or rejected (FAIL - not delivered).
When you post products or services to Oziway, you enter how many days you need to finalize the transaction (Customer paid, Seller delivered). You set the status of each transaction, before the declared number of days has passed (if we receive no feedback, Oziway automatically sets the transaction to Success and you are required to pay the commission).
1 of 3 things now will happen:
- If the transaction was not finalized (Customer did not pay for example, no delivery took place), then set the status to Rejected (FAIL) and enter a description – what happened, why did the transaction not take place. You will not be required to pay any commission.
- If the transaction was set to Success (OK) automatically, but it did not actually take place (you forgot to reject the transaction), contact us and let us know what happened.
- If the transaction was finalized and its status set to Accepted (OK, automatically or by you), you have 7 days to make the payment (you will receive a business receipt for the payment). Please do not be late with the payment because after 7 days, if no payment is made, your products are automatically disabled.
How Do You (Seller) Get Paid For Digital/Downloadable Goods
When you publish a Digital (Downloadable) Product, you set a price in USD. Automatically this product will get published in all our country specific stores, and its price will be automatically converted to all currencies in those stores (Australian Dollar, Chinese Yuan, Euro etc). When a Customer buys, Your Balance will automatically be increased, you can then send a Payout Request and we will pay to your PayPal or Wechat (China) account.
Please see above "How we send the Payouts" section.

A wholly predictable result given the venue and the respective positions of the two clubs. Argyle, currently trapped in the Championship's relegation zone, were comfortably beaten by the table-topping Geordies. Peter Lovenkrands showed his class with a well-taken hat-trick. At least now Argyle can concentrate on staying up. Green Army! etc.

We are so grateful to be celebrating our 32nd year as, a family manufacturing business in Vermont.
See what's predicted for this NEW year!
The mission of Gordon's Window Decor is to make every client a raving fan by delivering exceptional custom window treatments and an experience that makes them smile! We are a family-owned company based in Vermont that has been designing, manufacturing and installing custom window treatments since 1986. We are proud to offer high-quality products including insulating cellular shades, roller shades, wood blinds, draperies, solar shades and much more. We handle every step of the process from design, measuring, manufacturing, and installing!
We were founded on the principle that dollar for dollar window treatments do more to enhance the comfort, appearance and operating costs of your home than any other element.
There are so many facets to window treatment selection that the process can get overwhelming meaning homeowners often end up "settling" on window shades rather than getting the proper treatment for their home and lifestyle.
Our designers are highly trained experts who have helped thousands of customers choose the right treatment within their budget. And our installers make sure every treatment is installed so as to reach its maximum potential. We understand that the window is the most powerful element in any room, and we also understand that it has some weaknesses like energy loss, glare, or UV damage. We are experts at designing treatments that will make your room beautiful AND more comfortable.
We invite you to watch our videos to get to know us better. You can also view our portfolios to see a few of the hundreds of families, businesses and schools we have worked with.

I just love the TV show 'Biggest Looser". I am FAT but all the 'stars' are fatter...at least until they loose all their weight...maybe that is why I like it. I like to watch it because it is one that BD watches too. We often do NOT have the same TV taste...but on this we agree. Tonight we DVR'd it and watched it commercial free and that was really great! I have to admit that I do get a little more motivated to lose weight and even get a pointer or two. One really weird thing, though, is I usually like to eat a really fattening treat during the show! Oh well, I could never win on that show..but it sure is fun to watch!

Wacky Martial Arts Indie 'Bunraku'Posted on Fri, Feb 11, 2011 at 7:38 am
by IDMA Editor
In a world with no guns, a mysterious drifter (Hartnett), a young samurai and a bartender (Harrelson) plot revenge against a ruthless leader (Perlman) and his army of thugs of nine diverse and deadly assassins. This visually stunning film is filled with uniquely choreographed action sequences of a new style that melds east with west and old school with new. Bunraku is written & directed by filmmaker Guy Moshe, of only a film called Holly previously. Yes, there are some cool fights in it, but it's just way too long and way too wacky at times to be enjoyable. I don't think it even has a distributor yet, or if it does, we haven't heard.

Guy Moshe's latest film, Bunraku, is ambitious to say the least. In a world with no guns, a mysterious drifter (Josh Hartnett) and master samurai (Gackt) find their paths intertwined after a chance meeting. The drifter, a man out for revenge, and the samurai, a man looking to reclaim an ancient family medallion, manage to put aside their mutual distrust and work together. Aided by a bartender (Woody Harrelson) with intimate knowledge of the region and its major players, they pursue their target, the most powerful man east of the Atlantic, Nicola the Woodcutter (Ron Pearlman). However, the drifter and the samurai must first contend with Nicola's nine greatest warriors, appropriately named "The Killers", and led by the deadly Killer Number 2 - review by Kevin McKidd - imdb.

We just received some wonderful news- Larissa is improving! For the first time since she was admitted, Larissa was able to stand alone and even shower by herself. Her cough has subsided and her fever only comes sporadically. We are all so grateful to hear she is on the road to recovery. We give all glory to the Father!
"Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen." Ephesians 3:20-21
On behalf of the POI Boys Orphanage we would also ask that you pray for Mary, house-mother to the 7 boys currently in our care. She has recently been diagnosed with dengue fever, a infectious disease carried by the mosquitoes of Central America. The disease can vary on its severity so we are praying that it quickly runs its course. Please pray for Edgardo, her husband, who is caring for the boys alone, as well.
It is always evident to us when God is working in the lives of the Honduran people because the spiritual warfare comes in heaps. So we ask that you also pray for the leaders of POI, that their hearts would not be discouraged, but joyful, knowing that God is at work in this city.
"And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God's love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God's love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:28-29

Development of a Laboratory Procedure for Measuring the Effectiveness of Dust Control Palliatives
Dust control in many rural communities is becoming a priority. Since the research team has started research on controlling dust in rural regions they have truly engaged rural communities. Rural residents are seeing how controlling dust can reduce the negative environmental impact and improve their and their community's quality of life. This research has been a collaborative effort with the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (AKDOT&PF), the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation (ADEC), and the dust control palliative industry. As the research team worked with community leaders on controlling dust in their villages, they were often asked questions about which product should be used how much, and how often it should be applied. These are valid questions, all of which require evaluation and measurement procedures that are both accuracy and reliable. Unlike other surface stabilization methods used by the transportation industry (e.g. asphalt treatment, cement, etc. ) all of which have mature and widely accepted laboratory test methods that correlate to their field performance there are no field or laboratory testing procedures for determining the what type of, or how much, dust control palliatives should be used on any given unpaved or natural wearing surfaces. Hence, engineers and road managers are forced into a trial‐and‐error methodology or relying on personal judgement determining what they think would work best on their gravel roads or runways. The loss of the fine soil fraction has created a public health and safety issue nationwide, and as the unending supply of dust clouds are being generated from untreated gravel roads or runways, the problem from the loss of the surface fines is at work too, by to accelerating the deterioration until the road or airport is rendered unusable. Maintaining these surfaces in a usable condition has its own budgetary and financial challenges as the need for additional resources are required to combat the soil erosion of the gravel surfaces to pay for imported materials such as crushed aggregates, which needs to be mined, processed, transported, and placed into service. With the proper application of synthetic fluids, health, safety, and gravel surfaces can be preserved by simply controlling airborne dust and the loss of fines with the added benefit of providing the needed help in to reduce maintenance work and the continual escalation of costs associated with maintain these types of facilities. However, without understanding the relationship between the in situ properties of the aggregate soil matrixes used as surface wearing courses and their performance under differing formulations and concentrations of palliatives the benefits described, here in, may not be fully utilized or completely realized. The overall objective of this proposed research is to finalize the development of a laboratory test procedure for evaluating different dust control formulations and concentration levels needed to effectively control the airborne suspension of fine particles of a soil‐aggregate sample in the size range of 10 μm or less (i.e. dust, or fines). The research team will work with the AKDOT&PF to take the results from this research (by developing and validated a formal testing protocol) for adoption by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Subcommittee on Materials (SOM) to be initially published as a AASHTO Provisional Test Method (for a minimum 2‐year period) before it can be balloted for conversion to a Full Standard Test Method.

"You do realise that most normal people would prefer to be in the south of France," my husband commented.
It was a cold, very cold, February afternoon, and he and I were having lunch in my allotment shed, sheltering from the bitter cold wind and the snow, which now swirled around the plot. Inside, thanks to new roof felt, we were snug and warm with hot soup and cheese sandwiches. I considered his remark. Certainly normal people in my own corner of Scotland would be, if not in the south of France, at least out shopping or at home watching old movies or the racing from Wincanton. On the other hand, "normal" is not a particularly useful term if, as I have long suspected, allotments are in fact a sort of 3rd Rock From the Sun parallel universe.
And they?re catching on. Allotment sheds have long been recognised as the last refuge of henpecked husbands; today they are increasingly popular among the hard-pressed female of the species. The reason, quite simply, is they are not normal at all, but magic. I had arrived that Saturday, ratty from the week?s exertions, only to find myself fully restored when sitting on a stool in the shed. Does the magic have something to do with having one?s very own shed? Do sheds tap into childhood memories of dens, treehouses, caves, hide-outs: secret places where we made plans, kept diaries and shared secrets, hiding from the grown-ups with our gang?
Now grown up myself, I have no way of hiding from anyone. Mobiles, text messages, e-mails, landlines and children pursue me into every corner of my day. So perhaps sheds turn back the clock to childhood.
I am not alone in feeling this. I have brought high-powered women friends down to the allotment to share a bottle of wine, only to find that once they have stopped teasing me about my corkscrew hanging next to my dibber, my old past-it designer handbags being used as seed packet carriers, and marvelling at the shed?s general Second World War shabbiness, they relax and eventually confess to feeling a million dollars. Perhaps I ought to charge health farm prices?
Allotment sheds are a state of mind; their magic is unaccountable and therefore, as it cannot be counted, can bring infinite happiness. So, as I told my long-suffering spouse that snowy lunchtime, "love me, love my shed". Or, in the words of a Londoner walking past one day as I was painting the door. "Blimey darlin?, it?s not a shed, it?s a dacha!"

Samantha Davis started as a working student at Paradigm in June of 2009 and quickly became indispensable. She is very committed to becoming a FEI rider and her ambition shows in all her work in the saddle. She has competed to 4th level, and is currently bringing Ella along for the 2017 competition season.
Samantha took some time away from the barn to work as a paramedic, but has returned as a full time assistant rider/trainer.
Mike Piro has been the farrier for Paradigm Sporthorse Training since 2002. He is fastidious, with a great attention to detail resulting in sound, healthy feet.
Mike competes his horses in cutting.
Cassandra Schuler D.V.M has been Becky's veterinarian since 1989! Not only does she attend to all general vet needs in the barn, she is also an equine chiropractor and accupuncturist. She integrates western and eastern medicine philosophies in her practive.
Sandy is an active endurance competitor and has competed in the Olympics, Pan American Games, and won Haggins Cup in the Tevis on more than one occasion!
Martine McGuinness has been the equine masseuse for the Paradigm horses since 2000. Her bodywork is a valuable contribution to the training program, as she ensures the horses are comfortable and happy in their work.
Martine has hung up her endurance spurs, and boards her horse here at Paradigm where she joins the rest of us in pursuing the puzzle that is dressage.
UC Davis and Dr. Galuppo, fortunately, are a relatively short trailer ride away, and we take advantage of their proximity for lameness diagnostics, surgeries, breeding, and internal medicine issues that need more than a field consult. It is comforting to know that we have such an incredible university available to us when things go awry!

Are We Preparing for the Latter Rain?– Part XXXV
A Sabbath-Keeping People (continued)
"THOU SHALT HAVE NO OTHER GODS BEFORE ME." Exo. 20: 3; Deut. 5: 7. This is the first commandment of God's law that is as glorious, eternal, and unchanging as its Author. "Jehovah, the eternal, self-existent One, himself the source and sustainer of all, is alone entitled to supreme reverence and worship. Man is forbidden to give any other object the first place in his affections or service. Whatever we cherish that tends to lessen our love for God or to interfere with service due Him, of that we do make a god." – E. G. White, Patriarchs & Prophets, p. 35.
Paul says He "is the same yesterday, today and forever." Heb. 13: 8. John testifies that while in Patmos he was"in the Spirit on the Lord's Day" (Rev. 1: 10) when he received "The Revelation of Jesus Christ" (Rev. 1:1-3) and records Him as declaring: "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end . . . I am the Lord, who is, and whowas, and who is to come, the Almighty." Rev. 1: 8; cf. 21: 6. This is He who presented himself to the Jewish nation, as "the Lord of the Sabbath" that "He made for man." Matt. 12: 8; Mark 2: 27, 28; Luke 6: 5.
What a grand and convincing witness and testimony to the world it would be when the work of genuine Sabbath reform takes place among those who profess to be Sabbath-keepers today—if they strive to enter each weekly Sabbath, starting Friday sundown, to be in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and as they assemble in congregational worship the next morning till sunset, on the only day the Creator rested, blessed, sanctified and set apart as theMemorial of His Creation.
This is part of the great reformation that Isaiah prophesied would take place in the last days. It includes restoring the Sabbath to its central place in God's law and in man's hearts; ceasing from six-days of oftentimes stressful labor and entering into the transcendent rest, refreshing, and joy of worshipping the Lord of the Sabbath, not theday itself, on the day He appointed. The Lord of the Sabbath is constantly referred to by the prophet Isaiah in his prophecy of the last-day reformatory movement:
"If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath, from doing your pleasure on My holy day, and call the Sabbath a delight [not a burden!], the holy day [not a holiday] of the Lord honorable, and shall honor Him [by] not doing your own works, nor finding your own pleasure, nor speaking your own words, then you shall delight yourself in the Lord; and I will cause you to ride on the high hills of the earth, and feed you with the heritage of Jacob your father. The mouth of the Lord has spoken it." Isaiah 58: 13, 14, N.K.J.V.
In verse 12 God calls such the "repairers of the breach [that was made in His law], "the restorer of paths to dwell in." (K.J.V.) More promises are assured them: "And the Lord [of the Sabbath] will guide you continually, and satisfy your soul in drought, and strengthen your bones; you shall be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail. Those from among you shall build the old waste places, you shall raise up the foundations of many generations."
In chapter 56 the Gentiles or non-believers are definitely included in this work. This salvation-determining message is at the core of the three angels' warnings of Revelation 14 that are to be given "to every, nation, kindred, tongue, and people." Rev. 14: 6-12. Earth's inhabitants are warned to keep God's Sabbath or else they will receive "the mark of the beast." Rev. 13: 16-18; 14: 9, 10. Injustice and unrighteousness are directly related to defiling the Sabbath while those who keep it holy are blessed. Notice:
"Thus says the Lord [of the Sabbath]: keep justice and do righteousness, for My salvation is about to come, and My righteousness to be revealed. Blessed is the man who does this, and the son of man who lays hold on it; who keeps from defiling the Sabbath, and keeps his hand from doing any evil. Do not let the son of the foreigner who has joined himself to the Lord speak, saying, 'The Lord [of the Sabbath] has utterly separated me from His people, nor let the eunuch say, Here I am, a dry tree. For thus says the Lord [of the Sabbath]: To the eunuchs who keep My Sabbath, and choose what pleases Me, and hold fast My covenant [Deut. 4: 13], even to them I will give in My house and within My walls a place and a name better than that of sons and daughters; I will give them an everlasting name that shall not be cut off. Also, the sons of the foreigner who join themselves to the Lord to serve Him, and to love the name of the Lord [of the Sabbath] to be His servants—everyone who keeps from defiling the Sabbath, and holds My covenant— even them will I bring to My holy mountain, and make them joyful in My house of prayer. . . . for My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations. The Lord God who gathers the outcasts of [Sabbath-keeping, spiritual] Israel , says, Yet I will gather to Him others besides those who are gathered to Him." Isa. 56:1-6.
The Lord of the Sabbath reiterates this prophesied "gathering of outcasts from all nations," "the others," in these familiar New Testament Scriptures: "And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; them also I must bring, and they will hear My voice; and there will be one flock and one Shepherd." John 10: 16. In the context these verses are given, it undeniably means "there will be one Sabbath-keeping flock and one Lord of the Sabbath Shepherd! "For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints." 1 Cor. 14: 33. God's own precious saints are all "who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus." Rev. 14: 12.
The first commandment is explained in detail in the nine following it, and are summarized in the New Testament as: "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your mind, with all your soul, and with all your strength; and your neighbor as yourself." Luke 10:27. Lord means "ruler, "master." The gospel writers warn all to remember that whenever we say "Lord" we are taking the name or calling upon the He who made the heavens and the earth. To those who claim this is "the new commandment of love" that replaces the Decalogue the question naturally arises: Are you then truly loving God with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength, and your fellow men as much as yourself? Again, it must be asked: Who is this God as there are many "other gods"!
"To obey is better than sacrifice." 1 Sam. 15: 22. All forms of worship or religions require some form of sacrifice. Not all are acceptable to God. This basic truth was immediately set down in the beginning by the example of the first two sons of Adam and Eve. At the outset, both sons complied with God's requirement to build altars for worship. The difference lay in what each chose to offer on their respective altars. Cain, the elder, offered whathe wanted to,—the best fruits of his own works. Abel offered what God specified. The consequences of these two kinds of worship have been replicated from generation to generation till the close of time. See Gen. chaps. 4, 6, 7.
The majority of the religious world still worships on a day not of God's own choosing, many ignorantly. However,Pentecost renders this day of ignorance as past. The end-time truths and prophecies have been steadily unfolding since the three angels' messages of Revelation 14 began to be successively proclaimed from 1840 to 1844. The Lord's Day is the seventh day Sabbath of Creation, not the first, neither any other day of the week. Elijah, in his work of reform during the height of ancient Israel 's apostasy, declared atop Mount. Carmel : "How long halt ye between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow Him; but if Baal [the ancient sun-god], then follow him." 1 Kings 18: 20, 21: We can only serve one, not two masters. See Luke 16: 13.
See Acts 17: 16-31. Apostle Paul dealt wisely with the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers of the idol-worshipping city of Athens who accused him of being "a proclaimer of foreign gods because he preached to them of Jesus and the resurrection." They took him to the Areopagus (Mar's Hill to the Romans) to explain and defend his position. Paul's opening statement was: "Men of Athens, I perceive that in all things you are very religious," and explains how he concluded thus: "For I was passing through and considering the objects of your worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: THE UNKNOWN GOD."
Then he proceeds to expound on who this "unknown God" is: "Therefore, the One whom you worship without knowing, Him I proclaim unto you: God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands. Nor is worshipped with men's hands, as though He needed anything, since He gives to all life, breath, and all things.
AndHe has made from one blood every nation of men to dwell on all the face of the earth, and has determined their pre-appointed times and boundaries of their habitation, so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us; for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, 'For we are also His offspring.' Therefore, since we are the offspring of God, we ought not to think that the Divine Nature is like gold or silver or stone, something shaped by art or man's devising." That's the second commandment forbidding the making of and bowing down to graven images! Exo. 20: 4-6; Deut. 5:8-10.
Paul then declares the testing truth to all who plead ignorance as to which day they keep as the Sabbath: "Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked [winked at, K.J.V.], but now commands all men everywhere to repent." Why? "Because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness." By whom? "By the Man whom He has ordained. He has given us assurance of this [judgment] to all by raising Him from the dead."
So Christ's glorious resurrection, which every Christian religion from Roman Catholicism to Protestants and Evangelicals, believe, is the assurance that there is an appointed day of judgment by the Lord of the Sabbath! How will we fare in this judgment if we don't keep His Sabbath? (Continued next week)

Fun With Olivia
Given the popularity of the name, chances are you've got an Olivia in your circle. When I saw these fabrics based on the Ian Falconer "Olivia" books, I had to splurge.
I've been fooling with mixing up pants, making the fronts and backs with coordinating fabrics like these pants I made for Little V:
And for a real Olivia that I know, pajama pants (freshly crumpled right out of the pyjama drawer). How cool to have your name written all over your clothes!
And last, a little layered skirt with velvet ribbon. It's pretty chilly here where I live (think 25 below chilly) so skirts don't get out of the closet much, but I think this would be cute over jeans:
It's my goal to do some post-holiday organizing this week and I know I have some more Olivia fabric floating around, so watch for a giveaway soon.

Don't you just love all the Olivia fabrics? I sewed an Olivia quilt for my oldest daughter, Madeline, and I couldn't get over all of the panels and prints. So adorable. The border was the best- it was Olivia doing little stretches, and it said "exercising is good, but accessorizing is better!"

In response to the letter from Jon R. Love (June 17):
I hope Love is not a sheriff's deputy or police officer. Anyone who believes that a 5' 9" 160-pound 30-year-old man fits the description of a 5' 5" 125-pound 18-year-old has a real problem.
I must say I am amazed at how many unarmed men who "went for their waistbands" have been killed by LAPD and sheriff's deputies in the last 10 years. Many of the excuses and "reports" made in these situations are an insult to any honest person's intelligence.

Boo for School.
I was kind of struggling in my statistics class, but I think it mainly has to do with the fact that this is the calculator everyone in my class was using:
and this is the calculator I was using:
(I just found that picture on the internet. My real calculator is green like that, but it's shaped like a dinosaur. It's really cute) But my brother and brother-in-law take care of me, so I have a grown-up calculator now. Now I can get A's in math.

Promote a Culture of Gratitude
Thanksgiving is a time to reflect, appreciate, and give thanks for all that we have. For many of us, thankfulness is directed towards our family and friends who are seated beside us at the table. However, too few share how grateful they are for their colleagues and employees.
Gratitude Increases Engagement and Performance
Research on gratitude and appreciation demonstrates that when employees feel valued: they have high job satisfaction, are willing to work longer hours, engage in productive relationships with co-workers and supervisors, are motivated to do their best, and work towards achieving the company's goals.
Recognition and Appreciation
A study of over 1,700 employees conducted in 2012 by the American Psychological Association (APA) indicated that more than half of all employees intended to search for new jobs because they felt underappreciated and undervalued. This seems surprising in many ways, as we invest so much of our time and energy in our job. Why is expressing gratitude in our daily interactions so hard? Often in our hyper-paced world, we are so busy that we fail to acknowledge and share our appreciation with others.
Here are some ways you and your team can foster an attitude of gratitude:
Gratitude Wall. Cover a large office wall with post-a-notes or white drawing paper and create a mural of "thanks." Encourage your team to write words of acknowledgement or drawings of what they are most thankful for.
Gratitude Notes. Supply notecards for team members to write thank you notes to one another. The intent is to make each note personal and meaningful. A colleague of mine spends Thanksgiving morning writing "thank you" notes. She writes to the people who have made a difference in her life that year.
Gratitude 365. Make it a daily practice of saying "thank you" and giving praise to employees in a genuine, honest, and heartfelt way. Taking the time and effort to create a culture that values and appreciates one another can reap great rewards in terms of performance and satisfaction. At the end of the day, we all just want to feel valued and appreciated.
What are the ways you "give thanks?"

ALCS Game 5 Preview: New York Yankees
For the first time since 2007 the Yankees face an elimination game in the postseason. They were able to stay alive one more day in that series, no thanks to a gimpy Roger Clemens, but ended up losing the next game. This year the task is a bit greater. In 2007 they were down two games to none in the ALDS, with two home games before a potential return trip to Cleveland. This year they have one more game at home before potentially returning to Texas. Even if they do win the next two, they have a return date with Cliff Lee waiting for them on Saturday.
Today, though, they'll send their ace to the mound. CC Sabathia has been a bit shaky in his first two 2010 postseason starts, though he has a ready-made excuse. His start on October 15th was his second in 17 days, which constitutes far more rest than he gets during the regular season; the Yankees even lined him up on fairly regular rest after the All-Star Break. But today, October 20th, he's on his normal four days' rest. Everything is in order and his team's season is on the line. There are no excuses.
C.J. Wilson pitched well through seven innings last time, allowing just four hits and walking two. But instead of turning to his setup crew, Ron Washington sent out Wilson, who had thrown under 100 pitches, for the eighth. He and the next three relievers failed to record an out. By the time Derek Holland finally got the first one the Yankees had already taken the lead. Wilson did avoid walking too many hitters, which helped him hold down the Yankees through seven. This time perhaps his bullpen will better support him.
We don't have stats that measure momentum; we don't have stats that capture a team's confidence. We don't, in short, have stats that offer any insight into any single game. We can use our numbers to set expectations, and in that way we should expect a quality game this afternoon. But in the postseason, with emotions at a season high, it's tough to expect anything. The Yankees' offense could rebound. It could bomb. Wilson could go back to walking too many guys and allow five runs. He could repeat his Game 1 performance. It's frustrating from an analytical standpoint, but it's true.
The real preview for Game 5: watch it and enjoy it. No amount of analysis can prepare you for what you're going to see.
