Most luxury shoppers say they don't care if a high-end brand branches into the mass market, according to a new survey by the Luxury Institute.
Some 84 percent of wealthy women and 78 percent of wealthy men would continue shopping with a high-end company that branches into the mass market, the survey found.
The survey found that as the lines between luxury and mass market continue to blur, most wealthy customers view quality as the overriding differentiator between luxury and so-called mainstream goods. Price (55 percent) is cited as the second biggest point of differentiation, followed by craftsmanship (48 percent), prestige (47 percent), and design (38 percent).
"Luxury brands can leverage their edge in quality and craftsmanship with current offerings by communicating these attributes clearly with consumers," said Luxury Institute CEO Milton Pedraza in a statement. "This enhances perceived value and alleviates price sensitivity."

Rick Banks has just successfully crowdfunded Clubbed, a colourful look at the design that shaped, framed and defined the UK's club culture over the last three decades. He discusses his project with Richard Seabrooke ahead of his appearance at Vinyl Dublin
"They all have a unique style and voice; something to set them apart from the crowd, whether through clean minimalism, fluorescent illustrations or bonkers photography. Each club has invested in design."
The history of club culture fascinates me. No singular element in particular, more how every skillset of those working together synchronised to create such social magic, build communities and drive culture forward. Borne of a DIY ethos, the part to make these pioneering events happen is still the stuff of legend, and it laid the groundwork and wrote the rules for what we know and enjoy today.
An integral part of this apparatus was graphic design which defined many of the best clubbing brands and institutions here and across the world. I saw the next trends in graphic design emerge and this is where many seminal graphic designers cut their teeth. The idea that design could not only help persuade people to come to a particular night or event, but actually own the experience and build cult followings blew my mind. Rick Banks has documented this in his new publication Clubbed.
Tell me how Clubbed came about…
I publish books I'm passionate about. My previous two publications were both about football. Dance music, my other passion, was hugely influential to me when I was growing up; it was one of the biggest reasons I got into graphic design. For years, I was always amazed no one had done a modern, visual book on clubbing.
What's your story within club culture. Why is it important to you to put this together?
In my teenage years, I loved spending hours in record stores, browsing vinyls and CDs. In addition to hunting down specific tracks I'd heard on the radio or on Napster, I often bought records based solely on the cover art. I didn't know it at the time but looking back I was infatuated with the details within the design. I would obsess over the logos and try to redraw them in my school books. I'd sit in my bedroom and read all the tiny 5 point copy on the packaging for Gatecrasher CDs or admire the stunning abstract still life photography on a Renaissance flyer. I'd open the inner booklets and read all the footnotes, and memorise who designed what and who produced what. I would study the grid system counting how many columns compilations and club posters showed. I soaked up everything and tried to replicate what I'd seen by making mix-tapes with accompanying — albeit awful — artwork!
At the time, I was still too young to go clubbing but I loved the music and embraced the culture like a true fan boy. I bought CD's, vinyls, posters, merchandise, and collected flyers and magazines. I find it strange that nowadays, this whole experience is often reduced to a tiny square JPEG, often poorly designed, in the bottom corner of Spotify or iTunes. The designs in the book — the very same ones I loved when I was a teenager — formed the designer I am today.
Why now?
The club scene has dwindled as music venues have been pushed out of many cities, including London, where skyrocketing real estate prices and other factors have forced many to shutter. Clubbing culture is getting smaller.
I wanted to celebrate the past with all the pre-internet artworks that inspired me. I didn't want them to vanish. I also wanted to celebrate the future of clubbing. New multi-use clubs like Oval Space and The Printworks have very strong graphic identities. They seem to care about the importance of design in the club world. As The Haçienda promoter Paul Cons once said: 'Think of a club which is successful and you will be thinking of a club that has effectively branded its image on a flyer.' All modern clubs featured in the book have done this. They all have a unique style and voice; something to set them apart from the crowd, whether through clean minimalism, fluorescent illustrations or bonkers photography. Each club has invested in design.
Your personal favourite club ID and design work?
My personal favourites are Cream and Gatecrasher. I actually wanted to shave the Cream logo into my head as a teenager! Embarrassing looking back. But that's how strong the logo is. It's timeless. Farrow's Swiss approach heavily influenced me growing up. I loved the minimalism and print finishes. I liked everything about tDR's holistic approach for Gatecrasher — the bespoke font, the tiny details, the lairy colours, intricate illustration and distinct tone of voice.
I also loved how Fabric abandoned the initial graphic approach (which was common at the time) in favour of a more surreal aesthetic. By using photography, set design and model making their posters have such a unique style to them you instantly know they are from Fabric. They have created their own visual world. Sometimes they don't even use the fabric logo which makes it even more impressive. Sometimes less is more.
Your clubbing design hero, and why?
It's got to be Peter Saville. He had huge role in sculpting the visual culture in the 80s. Under Peter's creative direction The Haçienda, in a somewhat subversive, 'questioning the system' and ironic way, began acting like a quasi-powerful company with modern logos, bespoke fonts and playful copy. The Haçienda's designs were both trend-setting and avant-garde. It was a branding blueprint for the future.
The club that got it all right…
From a brand and financial point of view Cream nailed it. James Barton set up Cream in Liverpool on October 1992 alongside Darren Hughes and Andy Carroll. He quickly invested in the brand and commissioned Farrow who designed arguably the most famous clubbing logo. For 10 years, in the era of the 'superclub', Cream hosted weekly house and trance nights at Nation. Most of the clubs in the book have gone under and not many have stood the test of time. Sadly, Nation has now become residential flats but, as a brand, Cream still lives on.
Your ultimate clubbing memories…
Unfortunately, I was too young to go clubbing in the super club era. However, I go to the Cream Reunions which are awesome. I've also had a few good nights in Fabric too!
Your favourite club mix of all time.
Paul Oakenfold's Essential Goa Mix in 1994 followed by James Zabiela's Essential Mix in 2010.
Your seminal club track?
Three Drives — Greece 2000 (Miro Vocal extended version)
You could bring back any club today. Which one would it be?
Where do you think clubbing is at now, creatively and culturally, and where would you like to see it going in the future?
Not a lot of clubs or music labels are championing graphic design in the UK. I presume this is down to budgets. In the nineties and early noughties there was a lot of money in the music industry. Clubbing was huge. It was on prime time TV. Clubs and labels had massive budgets to employ the top designers in the country. And this showed in the work.
Sadly I just don't think there is the money to employ top designers anymore. With the invention of the internet and smartphones equipped with instant notifications the art of the flyer/poster has died. However, clubs like Numbers break this mould and have created some beautiful posters.
I like Sadiq Khan's new London Plan draft. Hopefully that will help protect clubs, pubs and live venues from property developers. Councils also need to stop trying to shut down clubs.
The book would work incredibly well as a documentary, any plans to tell the story that way? (I would love to help you make this happen)
I've not thought of a documentary but I think it would work. People would be genuinely interested to hear all the stories behind the work. Just by researching the book I've heard some unbelievable stories, such as, Tony Wilson being shot at!
Do you have plans for Clubbing 2? Certainly feels like there's a lot more fuel in the tank.
I'm not sure. I'd like to go back to my original book idea and explore the design and art of all the big clubbing/dance labels.
Rick Banks will speak at Vinyl Dublin which takes place in Royal Hospital Kilmainham this May Bank Holiday (May 5-7). It features specially programmed talks, panel discussons, curated collections, performances and much more. Guests include Bob Geldof, Shane McGowan, James Lavelle, Andy Weatherall, Cillian Murphy, Portishead, Tim Burgess, Edith Bowman, Kevin Shields and Snow Patrol.

Kenny's Wood Fired Grill
we ate at Kenny's on Easter Sunday. Food was delicious. Our server, Jim was awesome. The kitchen sent out my daughters food and it wasn't prepared according to his ticket. He noticed it across dining room and corrected immediately! He was also very friendly and helpful!
I highly recommend any of the Kenny's Restaurant's. You can't go wrong.
The noise level in deafening they could do something to bring it down somewhat
Excellent choice for Sunday Easter brunch. It was crowded and pretty loud, but the service and food was great. We had 1pm reservations which is exactly when we arrived, and we were seated immediately. I'd go there again for the moderately priced steak and eggs brunch!
If you are eating at Kenny's Woodfire Grill, bring your appetite! The portions are very generous. We went for Easter brunch but half of us decided on lunch fare instead of brunch. We ordered starter salads and they were large starter salads almost on par with a meal. So yummy that it was hard to put the fork down to have room for the main course. We ended up taking a lot of food home. The Chicken was prepared with sundried tomotoes, mushrooms, artichokes, etc... and my husband said it was the best chicken he has ever had. I got the Flounder Oscar and my boys got brunch entrees with Steak Benedict and Fried Egg Burger. All very satisfying and the leftovers held up well.
Never disappoints. Had an awesome Easter brunch. Everyone in the party was very pleased with the dining experience. It was a first time visit for a couple of folks. They will be back.
From my perfectly grilled Flounder, to our many special requests...our evening was superb. The only thing to come close to our food was our waiter, Kyle. With only our deep satisfaction as his mission, Kyle took charge. He filled every request as if he knew them in advance. Superb in every way.
Wonderful food and outstanding service. Pretty hectic and loud atmosphere, so be prepared for that.
As always Kenny's Wood fired grille was an absolute treat for my guest and I. We celebrated my Sweethearts 60th birthday and she was completely surprised. The food was excellent, the service was outstanding, and our dinning experience was fantastic. Thank you Kenny's for maintaining the highest level of food and service. My birthday is soon and i can't think of a better place to have it.
Devon was a true professional! Nice touches, very attentive and food was amazing!!!
Excellent great food any the staff is the very best!
Great great
Food was great but ambience was a bit loud for a business meeting.
We went for Sunday Brunch as some people in our party wanted breakfast and others wanted a heavy lunch. Everyone was extremely pleased - great French toast and eggs Benedict, great filet, and great burger!
Looking for a great Bruch? This is the place to go.
My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary and they truly made it an enjoyable experience! You don't get service like this everywhere and the food is absolutely delicious!! Portions are good reat drinks are consistent and the fresh cold glasses are the best. The little details make this one of our most favorite restaurant. Every experience here is consistently wonderful!
This was our first time at Kenny's and we were seated immediately, the dining are is not that large and we weren't sure about the noise level or music playing, it turned out to be a non issue with the experience. Although the appetizers looked great, we opted to not overdo it and ordered our entree's immediately without appetizers. I had a wedge salad that I didn't regret. The salad was perfect size and the flavors blended perfectly with blue cheese, bacon, tomato, onion and dressing. I read reviews about the pork chop and from the first bite, it was clear the flavor from the grill set this apart from what you would expect from a pork chop, it was fantastic, I had the Bubbies potato cakes as the side and enjoyed the unique way of having a potato side, my better half had the special of the day with Scallops and risotto, the scallops were a hit and the risotto was pleasant, not the best we have had but enjoyable. Asparagus and spinach sides are worth doing, they are created to be unique and are an unexpected flavor addition that topped off incredible entree's. We were full but celebrating a birthday our waiter, who was attentive and thorough, suggested the peanut butter pie, I have to say that this in itself is worth going back for and making sure to leave room for desert, best pie ever..
Amazing food and exceptional service! My husband ordered the pork chop and said it was the best he's ever had; I ordered the chicken and loved it! It was flavorful and delicious! They also were great with my gluten allergy and had so many gluten free choices. Will definitely dine here again if I ever return to Dallas!
I was treating two birthday people.
Your gift cards for them was very generous.
Customer service is superb! I'm from Charleston SC and we have a huge culinary scene but nothing beats Kenny's customer service! They make you feel like a queen! Plus the food is amazing!
Exceptional service.
We go to Kenny's every year during our annual trip to Dallas. It never disappoints! Food is amazing, servers and staff are always gracious and the atmosphere is great. On one of our visits my husband asked for a Mountain Dew which they don't have, the waiter surprised him with a Mountain Dew that they had run across the street to grab at a convenience store...talk about service!!! We keep going back every year and dream about the food in between each visit.
Food and service are both fantastic. Ahi Tuna salad was maybe the best I've ever had.
Disclaimer: My experience may have been skewed by raised expectations based on Yelp reviews.
The Good:
The crab cake was definitely a treat - the remoulade was outstanding.
Saving grace: my waiter (while I cannot recall his name) - he made the suggestion of an espresso martini (Which was expertly done) and voila the evening was salvaged.
The Bad:
My entree was lackluster and uninspiring.
The oysters were horrendous.
The lack of an espresso machine to help me forget the bad parts was almost unforgivable.
The Neutral:
The adult mac and cheese was halfway there, the hint of rosemary while not overpowering was both present and pleasant, sadly the bechamel was a thin and ruined the experience
I would have to try the entire menu at some point to see what other hits or misses exist - but in my opinion the service is above par and with the exception of the crab cake the food is not where I would like it to be. However, the service staff can and will help you to find the good parts of the experience (after all, that is what really matters).
Great, as always! The potato cakes are delicious. Don't underestimate the Peartini...solid too!
Kenny's Wood Fired Grill is always a favorite. The food, service and ambiance (even if a bit loud) make this one of the places I wish was closer to us. Some very good wine deals can be found on their list...just a few dollars over retail.
My main tip is to reserve your table well in advance of when you want to go...and then enjoy!
Kenny's is fantastic. It's cozy and upscale, but not stuffy by any means. The waitstaff goes above and beyond to provide an excellent experience. And the food is absolutely amazing. You won't go wrong with any item on the menu. Come here for an excellent date night, it'll be great.
Excellent place for a date night or to grab a drink. Food was great, I would highly recommend the surf and turf. Our waiter was very nice and even flagged us down outside when we almost left our food. Will definitely come back
Our server Nikki was amazing and super attentive! One of the best customer service experiences we have had! The atmosphere and and the staff we came in contact with were also amazing! We will be back!
Great food, excellant service as is standard here. Nikki was our server tonight and did an outstanding job. Have added a couple new items to the menu. I had (new item) bacon wrapped shrimp stuffed with asparagus served with a bri dipping sauce & a warm raspberry dipping sauce and a choice of a side item. It was as good as it sounds. Shrimp were huge. A must try for shrimp lovers. Starting with the wonderful popover & side house salad made sure I came home with left overs. 😉
We have been to Kenny's many times and this was the first time that our food was not great. In fact, we had to spit out our oysters because they didn't taste right (and we always order them). Also there was some kind of a hard, almost rock-like little gray thing in my oyster that I'm pretty sure would have cracked my tooth had I not removed it quickly. We just decided not eat the rest of them because we were in a hurry. Then they brought out our steaks, which we also always order, and they were both overcooked. Our waiter was great, but we usually go to Kenny's because it's so consistent, and I'm not sure when we'll be eating there again. For what they charge, there is no excuse for the food to be prepared so badly. We filled out the comment page with all of this when we paid our bill, but haven't heard anything from Kenny's in the past week.
Great food and service!
Service and Food are both incredible!! You literally can't go wrong with anything on the menu...
Wonderful food and service! The quality of meat easily compares to many high end steak houses in the area without the ridiculously high prices. Fairly loud around the bar and main dining area however seating at the high tables was less noisy and enjoyable.
Honestly my favorite place to go eat! Highly highly recommend it!
Kenny's Wood Fired Grill has consistently good food. The puffed rolls, crab cake and potato cake are delicious.
Awesome as always!!!
Great service and food was fantastic! We celebrated a birthday and it was a good one!
Great food, service was amazing
The food, ambiance, and service are amazing! This is my favorite restaurant. They never let me down.

EVERY team needs somebody to take charge in the games that mattered most and Petron Blaze and San Mig Coffee certainly had plenty willing to don said mantle of responsibility.
None more so than Alex Cabagnot and James Yap, who were adjudged the Accel-PBA Press Corps Co-Players of the Week for the period Sept. 30 to Oct. 7 after leading their respective teams to the Finals of the PBA Governors' Cup.
Cabagnot was the most consistent for the Boosters in the week that was with four-game averages of 15.5 points, 5.25 rebounds and 4.25 assists, including 23 markers and eight dimes in a deciding 110-89 victory over last year's champion Rain or Shine last Monday.
Yap, who was similarly cited by the scribes for the period Sept. 2 to 8, was not too far behind with three-game averages of 15.0 points and 5.3 rebounds, including 19 points in the Finals seat-clinching 79-73 win over Meralco last Sunday.
Mixers guard Alex Mallari also came up big by coming off the bench and scattering 23 points in a 94-87 victory last Friday that put the Bolts' back against the wall and Boosters counterpart Marcio Lassiter torched the Elasto Painters for 27 points and 12 rebounds also last Monday.
It is undeniable, however, that Cabagnot and Yap left their own indelible prints throughout the tough semifinal series, enabling their respective teams to close out the best-of-five matchups on identical 3-1 counts.
Their latest performances did not go unnoticed by their coaches.
Especially San Mig tactician Tim Cone, who continues to marvel at the steady evolution of Yap from being a mere scorer into a more all-around player.
"I think everyone rates James' game based on whether he is scoring, but he is bringing a lot more to the table than just that," contended Cone.
"His devotion to the defensive side and on the boards has really taken our 'team' basketball to another level. His mindset right now is doing whatever it takes for us to win, whether it be to score or take on the tough defensive assignment or whatever."
Ditto for Cabagnot, whose game has taken an upward turn in the playoffs, especially at times when import Elijah Millsap struggled.
"Alex has taken it upon himself to be the leader of this team and I'm happy for him," said Petron coach Gee Abanilla.
"He's now more of a table-setter for his teammates, picking his spots and basically becoming more efficient as a result." (NC)

We will talk about her take on soup.
O.A.S.I.S. which stands for Oldways Africana Soup in Stories is a collection of soup recipes accompanied by stories from African American women all over the world. Dr. Evans shares with us why she choose soup as the common denominator in the collection. She speaks to the significance of soup occurring across diverse cultures.
We talk about geography being a determining factor in food choices, even her own recipe for Green Chili Stew is related to her military family's stay in New Mexico. The diversity of recipes is directly related to geography in food choices and preparation.
Dr. Evans puts out the call for her next project, she is looking to speak with African American yoga teachers.

31 October 2012 Exactly what I needed I couldn't find the right replacement handles anywhere - they were an awkward size - but this site offered the widest selection. The handles were accurately described, delivered very promptly and I was kept updated with shipping information. Good price too.

Osmosis Quotes
We're set up to be a major research facility for the world, really, in this area. We're trying to lower the costs of reverse osmosis, for sure. In general the costs have already gone down a lot - from about $14 per thousand gallons 15 years ago to about $2 per thousand gallons today. But we're also looking at ways to customize this technology for areas where there really are no other options. - Tom Jennings
Looking forward, it seems that reverse osmosis will remain the predominant technology, but there is lots of room for us to improve it. The membrane materials typically used are limited in their ability to transport materials. Sometimes they get clogged with salt. If you're treating lake water, they can have bugs and organic slime growing on them. One thing we can do is look for better materials for that. - Tom Mayer
I was supposed to do Pilates this morning. I got as far as putting the sports bra on. Then I realized there was no way I was about to drive through traffic and go to the gym. No. So I threw my bathrobe on over the bra and read the paper. Sometimes I hope that through osmosis I might get a workout...just by wearing the clothes. - Kate Walsh

So far my group and I hav made some progress on the road to creating the video and writing the paper. We have already divied up the topics of the for writing the paper among us based on the particular parts of the video we are focusing on or a specific skill we specialize in and will be going for in the video. We have also established what type of video production we want this to be. We have a heavy focus on making a good portion of this video a sort of "first-person experience" video with a good amount of gopro footage of the Career Services building, the jounry to get to the career services building, and footage of the office itself. We have also completed the storyboard and have been working on the details of our script and what role each of us will play on camera as well as behind the scenes.
With that in mind we have also met some hurdles as a group lately. One of our biggest problems, ironically, is trying to find the time to all work on the project together. Due to busy schedules not matching up we have struggled to all get together and start filming. Another was deciding exactly what aspect of Career Services we wanted to focus on and therefore portray in our film. We want to make sure that the topic is both one that we like and can properly and accurately portray in our video.
Some tools that have been offered to us in class that we have talked about using are Audacity, Screen-o-matic, Soundcloud, and iMovie. We feel these assets will provide us with just about everything we need to make the best movie possible. But in all honesty I would still rather get my hands on a premiere pro subscription to edit the film.

How To Transform Your Life & Business Using The Art Of Micro Movements
What Exactly Are Micro-Movements?
Simply put, it's a series of small steps you take every day leading you to a big outcome. Taking a 360 turn on habits not only provides stress & discomfort for us. Which can lead to overwhelm. Which eventually leads to either giving up or burnout. Turning your growth around & maximizing your efforts will take time, which by the way will add up.But the first thing to be done is figuring out what you're not doing right, what areas you're holding back on, and what outcome you want? The second step is figuring out what small steps you can take for each of these.
Let's say you wanted to follow your purpose. You want to create the life you want, but your limiting beliefs keeps showing up everytime you make the decision to try. It will take time to get from A-G. But you can definitely get there by taking a small step every single day. Maybe you could read an article one "how to get started", or how to find your passion? On the following day, add an additional step...what action can you take. Maybe you can get a journal and outline the outcome you want. Then the following day reverse engineer it..how do I get to step 1...see where I'm going?
The trick of the matter is to remain consistent and make it fun.
Breaking It Down
1. What are you not doing right?
I know what it feels like to think that you have all the answers. Or reading an article, taking a course & saying "I already know that". That might be true but are you implementing the know?A micro-movement tip would be to allow yourself to accept the insight from someone else. As a femtrepreneur, solopreneur, mompreneur, infopreneur, or general biz owner, we sometimes need to take a step back & look at the big picture from a distance for better clarity.
2.What's holding you back?
Fear and doubt are common passers-by on the road to success.I have learned that fear will always show up, but doubt you can't hold out a hand to. The reality is, these are very difficult to overcome, and it will need consistent and regular conditioning on the self and the mind to believe & affirm that you are ready to become more fearless. A micro-movement tip would be to embrace them. Embrace your fear, and learn from it. Find out why you're afraid. Embrace your doubt, give it a hug and then send it on its way.There is no greater feeling knowing that you executed and excelled at something beyond your comfort zone. Because it allows for more endorphins to keep pushing yourself.
3.What outcome do you want?
Of course, this one will be different for every business owner.But having a solidified outcome and great reasons to back up why you want it, will give you the foundation you need to start planning your action steps. No matter how small.
Of course, these are just examples and every woman faces different blocks along the way. But every micro movement adds up to the big picture, the big outcome & realising and accepting when you're in your own way is the first step. Are you running a business where you feel stagnant? Or have you been thinking of starting your own but fearful of taking that first step?As a way forward how about a little exercise.
Get into a quiet brainstorming mode & ask yourself the same questions above. Let yourself be fully open and transparent with your responses. I would love to read some of your answers on what struggles you are currently facing in your biz and what micro movement you plan on taking to combat them.Join the conversation below.

Selling Minerals in McKenzie County North Dakota
Selling Minerals in McKenzie County North Dakota
Are you contemplating selling minerals in McKenzie County North Dakota?
First you should know that minerals in McKenzie attract a lot of attention from all kinds of buyers. Some buyers are more honest than others, but, all buyers will only pay what they have to, not what they can. Soliciting offers from buyers and negotiating the highest price possible can be an overwhelming challenge for even the most educated of mineral owners. We have put together a few things to consider when selling minerals in McKenzie County North Dakota.
Remove emotion
We completely understand the emotional attachment your mineral rights may have to you. However, buyers are not concerned with how many generations your mineral rights have been held in family. They simply want to purchase your property for the least amount they can. An experienced buyer will pick up on your emotions and use it against you. Keeping emotions out of the transaction will increase your chances of a higher sales price.
If you are not sure you will be able to remove emotion from the deal, we recommend an intermediary negotiator. Fill out the form below and we can provide you with some easy but effective options.
Contact as many buyers as possible
If you are seriously considering selling mineral rights in McKenzie County North Dakota, do not accept an offer from a company by mail or sell to a "top dollar website".
You need to show your property to hundreds if not thousands of buyers before you can be comfortable you truly received the best offer. Every buyer looks at minerals differently and some will pay significantly more for your property than others. Finding these buyers, sifting through offers and negotiating the highest value takes time and resources.
If you are concerned you are not a good negotiator or if you do not have the time or resources to contact thousands of buyers, fill out the form below and we can help get you started.
Have realistic expectations
This is where the challenge comes.
Unfortunately with mineral rights, it is very difficult to determine mineral rights values. Short of paying for a mineral appraisal, you should consider the following:
- Check with your neighbors about activity in your immediate area
- Research general McKenzie County North Dakota production/operators/permits
- Know how mineral rights are valued – Reserve calculations/IP Rates/decline curves/time value of money
- Research, Research, Research
If you have questions about how to sell mineral rights in McKenzie C0unty North Dakota fill out the form below. We can help.

Cook time: 5 minutes Yields: 8-10 servings
1 gallon whole milk
1 pint half-and-half
1 cup white vinegar
1/2 cup chopped sundried tomatoes (not in oil)
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon salt
Extra virgin olive oil, to serve
Drill holes into the bottom of a round plastic storage container (approximately 6" wide and at least 4" high) and set aside. Line a colander with cheesecloth, set aside. Put milk and half-and-half into a large pot over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until it reaches 195 degrees F. (There will be a slight simmer and the top will be very foamy.) Remove from the heat and slowly stir in vinegar. Put colander into sink and pour mixture into cheesecloth. When most of the liquid has passed through, add the tomatoes, basil, and salt; stir gently to incorporate. Gather up ends of cheesecloth and transfer cheese to plastic container. Set container on a rack or sheet pan to catch the whey. Put a plate on top and weigh it down with some heavy cans to squeeze out the excess liquid. Let rest 1 hour, remove cheesecloth, return cheese to plastic container with plate and weights. Refrigerate overnight. To serve, put cheese onto a plate and brush with a little olive oil.
This is so yummy on fresh bread, in eggs, or on pizza! I'm sure it is a good fit elsewhere too, but these are the ways I used it this week.

This is one tired baker reporting back on todays cake delivery. I'll keep it short, and if you start to see something like this:
…I've fallen asleep 😉
The Dedication cake I've been working on was due this afternoon, and I was actually staying for the whole thing. Lovely people, lovely words said, and people really seemed to like the cake. So all in all, yay! Here is the cake:
For some reason wordpress seems to be messing with the colours a bit, but it was a light teal-ish colour, with darker blue detail. The three top blocks were dairy free mini madeira cakes, and the top two tiers were Madeira, with the bottom one being rich chocolate. Om. I was the one who had to cut the cake up, which I never like doing in all honesty. All those hours of work – GONE in less than half the time, with only a trail of crumbs to mark its existence. And some photos. And happy people munching. Ok, a little dramatic, but you know what I mean! In all fairness, I was the popular one with the kids for a short amount of time 😉 oh yes.
I have vowed to have a relaxing day tomorrow, but I am starting the day with a meeting with an owner of a cake shop down the road from me who may need my services…very exciting! I do love meeting other people in the baking industry, I get way too enthusiastic haha. Though, and Mr CC and I were discussing this earlier, I would love to meet Jamie Oliver. I think hes fab, and would love to talk about all the amazing things he does in the food industry. One day!!!
I feel a yawn coming on, so that is my sign to log off.
Much love x

Lake Forest
is more of a lodge than a cabin.
It has been built in the "post and beam" architecture of the Pacific Northwest,
with wood and beams coming from Washington State and British Columbia.
It sits on over 12 wooded acres, on a five acre private lake (only shared by the sister cabin named Serendipity Park),
adjacent to state forest and a large land conservation area protected from development. The entrance drive is private and beautiful.
It's as though you are driving through Brown County State Park. The entrance is enhanced by a short, easy ramp as well as steps,
so that a wheelchair or mobility cart can easily access the lodge.
Master and an additional
bedroom are on the main level, and two additional
bedrooms are on the lower, walk-out area facing the lake.
All have
king beds and exceptional views.
Master Bath
(main level) is handicapped accessible.
The doors to the Master Suite and bath are oversize 34" doors for wheelchair access.
The second main level bedroom is adjacent to another
full bath with tub/shower.
In addition there is a
powder room off the main living area.
The large
has solid cherry cabinets, and is open to the dining and
living areas.
A large island provides seating for intimate gatherings.
dining area
has a solid white oak table made by the owner, seating eight.
A huge stone fireplace and expansive windows dominate the main
living area.
Outside on the main level, a deck runs the length of the lodge,
plenty of space for your entire group to dine al fresco.
Off the dining area two sliding, eight foot tall oak doors on barn hardware slide open to reveal a large enclosed
all-season porch
with large windows and a comfy hide-a-bed.
And another spectacular view.
The open stairway from main level to lower level has a custom iron work railing depicting a blue heron, dragonflies,
and cattails, made by a well-known Brown County artisan.
On the lower level there is a large gathering room with
pool table
and wet bar with an under counter beverage cooler.
Two additional bedrooms flank the central gathering room, as does a
full bath
with double vanities and a tub/shower.
One of the bedrooms has a second bonus room. Step outside and into the large
hot tub
with seating for eight!
Lake Forest contains over 3000 square feet of custom designed space suitable for larger families or up to four couples.
This lodge was designed for peace and quiet and comfort. We hope you enjoy your stay!
Sharing part of the same property is one of our sister cabins,
Serendipity Park.
While the two cabins are both located on the same 70 acre property,
neither house is visible from the other, so your privacy (except shared lake)
won't be interrupted. The fact that the cabins share the same property is very handy for
families or group of friends who desire two cabins being fairly close together.

The Latest: Polian disappointed as AAF operations suspended
The Latest on the future of the Alliance of American Football (all times EDT):
5:15 p.m.
Alliance of American Football co-founder Bill Polian says he's been told football operations have been suspended and that virtually everyone involved will be terminated within 24 to 48 hours. He declined to say who told him that.
He says the only people to be retained will be equipment managers and others closing facilities.
Polian says he is "extremely disappointed."
He said: "We were headed to a tremendous run of success, beginning with Saturday's game leading into (the NCAA Tournament) on CBS. Our league on the field has prospered and grown. The football's gotten better, and that's a tremendous tribute to the coaches and players and GMs and front office staff and all the other people who have done a phenomenal job."
Asked why the league was shutting down, Polian said he's heard that "only that it's about the money. That's all."
3:06 p.m.
The Alliance of American Football is suspending operations eight games into its first season.
A person with knowledge of the decision tells The Associated Press the eight-team spring football league is not folding, but games will not be played this weekend. The decision was made by majority owner Tom Dundon, who also owns the NHL's Carolina Hurricanes.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because league officials were still working through details of the suspension. An announcement from the league is expected later Tuesday.
The league was co-founded by former NFL executive Bill Polian and television and film producer Charlie Ebersol.
The AAF aspired to be a league for players with NFL hopes, but it could not reach agreement with the NFLPA to use players at the end of NFL rosters.

North Korea continues to reject American efforts at diplomacy. Last week, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson offered more opportunities for the rogue regime to enter into diplomatic talks, but North Korea has now said it has no desire to negotiate with the United States until it has a nuclear weapon capable of reaching the continental U.S.
[Scroll Down for Video]
The country's push to perfect nuclear weapons is at the very heart of potential negotiations, and the root of the escalating war of words. A spokesman told CNN Monday that the nation is developing missiles that can strike "all the way to the East coast of the mainland US."
And until it has this powerful bargaining chip, the country isn't going to talk. "Before we can engage in diplomacy with the Trump administration, we want to send a clear message that the DPRK has a reliable defensive and offensive capability to counter any aggression from the United States," the official told CNN.
President Trump's take on the matter has been far more bellicose. He's been dismissive of negotiations and diplomacy.
Those advising the President seem concerned, too. "White House chief of staff John Kelly said last week that Americans should be concerned about North Korea's ability to reach the United States with an intercontinental ballistic missile," CNN writes, "cryptically telling reporters that if the threat grows 'beyond where it is today, well, let's hope that diplomacy works.'"
As of now, officials believe that the North Koreans are working on a re-entry vehicle that would allow a nuclear warhead to fall back to earth after a launch that took the weapon out of earth's atmosphere. That seems to be the sticking point for the country's missile development. Experts believe they are close to building a warhead small enough to be carried by an ICBM.
North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho told the United Nations last month that Kim Jong Un was planning "an unprecedented scale hydrogen bomb" test over the Pacific. Such a move would be a clear threat to countries in the Pacific rim.
Yet, for all of the threats and insinuations from both sides, the conflict still remains a war of words, mostly. South Koreans have found themselves bombarded with propaganda leaflets from North Korea. Experts believe that they are being flown in on balloons and dropped over cities.
Meanwhile, US-South Korea naval drills began Monday. The joint exercises will last 10 days. And the United States continues to offer the opportunity for North Korea to meet in diplomatic talks. "Those diplomatic efforts will continue until the first bomb drops," Secretary Tillerson said on CNN's "State of the Union."

Beefmaster & Santa Gertrudis Breeds are unique in that they perform exceptionally well on the native grass and forage diet found in the temperate pastures of Central Florida. Beefmaster, as the name suggests, are known for yielding exceptionally lean and tender beef. Santa Gertrudis (originating from the King Ranch in Texas) and Beefmaster are well suited for the Florida climate.
The name of the Santa Gertrudis breed is from Rincon de Santa Gertrudis, the name of the original land grant purchased by Captain Richard King from the heirs of Juan Mendiola. This land grant is where the first headquarters of the King Ranch was established. In 1940, the United States Department of Agriculture recognized the Santa Gertrudis as a purebred.
Modern Santa Gertrudis cattle are approximately five-eighths Shorthorn and three-eighths Brahman. A deep cherry-red color has been established in the breed. The breed shows a relatively high degree of both heat and tick resistance. Their characteristics include ease of calving, good mothering ability and abundant milk supply. They also show very little evidence of a hump and have improved beef quality over most purebred Brahmans. Santa Gertrudis steers are noted for their ability to achieve high weight gains on pasture grass.
The breed is recognized as a "Dual Purpose" breed, meaning Beefmasters blend strong maternal traits with excellent growth and carcass abilities. The cattle are heat, drought and insect resistant. They are moderate in size, and while there is no set color pattern in the breed, they are generally light red to dark red and some will have white mottle on their faces.
The females are excellent mothers, raising a heavy calf each year, and the bulls are aggressive breeders. Beefmasters are intelligent, gentle cattle that are truly a pleasure to work with. While all these traits make Beefmaster cattle pleasurable and profitable to work with, perhaps the thing about them that has most driven their enormous popularity throughout the world is their ability to do well in a variety of difficult environments with a minimum of attention. As Dr. Jim Sanders of Texas A&M said: "Beefmaster are the all-purpose breed."

Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida.Reuters
Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida will call on Russian President Vladimir Putin in St. Petersburg on Dec. 2, the Kremlin press service said in a statement on Dec. 1.
"Putin will receive Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida, who will be on a working visit in Russia for talks with [Russian Foreign Minister Sergei] Lavrov," the press service said.
The Japanese top diplomat's visit will "summarize a series of bilateral contacts in political, economic, humanitarian and other spheres in 2016 and will become the final stage of preparations for the Russian president's official visit to Japan," the statement reads.
Putin's visit is scheduled for December 15-16.
Putin spoke of ties with Japan during his annual address to the Federal Assembly on Dec. 1, saying that Russia expects them to progress. He also welcomed Tokyo's determination to develop economic ties with Russia and launch joint programs.
Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov told TASS earlier that the possibility of signing a peace treaty with Japan is currently being discussed at the level of experts.
Russia and Japan have been paying special attention to economic ties over the course of 2016. In early November, Japan's Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Hiroshige Seko, who is in charge of economic relations with Russia, paid a visit to Moscow. During his stay in the Russian capital, he said the two countries had chosen about 30 priority projects for cooperation to be materialized by mid-December.
Russia and Japan have still not signed a World War II peace treaty. The countries have failed to resolve a decades-long dispute over the Southern Kuril Islands- Shikotan, Habomai, Iturup and Kunashir, which are administered by Russia, but claimed by Japan.

Birding and Ringing
Birding has been my main interest for many years, and my profession, in one form or another, on and off since 1977.
I'm a latent twitcher but prefer to find my own rarities. In the Cape I was accused of never crossing the road to see a rarity, but would like to think that this was because I found them on my side of the road. Good finds were Baird's Sandpiper (below; first for S Africa, second for Africa – the first was in Namibia in 1863), and White-rumped Sandpiper (third for SA). Some quality records for the Western Cape were Icterine and European Marsh Warblers (both firsts), Slender-billed Honeyguide (second), and odd and sods like Flesh-footed Shearwater, American Purple Gallinule, American Golden Plover, Pectoral Sandpiper, Red-backed Shrike, and Grey Wagtail.
I particularly enjoy "patch watching", where a new or locally scarce species can give as much pleasure as a national rarity. My favourite patch was the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve and I added many species to its list over the years, the last being Black-chested Snake-Eagle. I have published a detailed account of the birds of the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve in the electronic journal 'Ornithological Observations'. This can be downloaded as a free PDF from here.
I was also a very keen seawatcher at the Cape, where the Cape Peninsula in general and, in particular, the Cape of Good Hope at its tip (below) are arguably the best places in the world for seeing seabirds from the shore. We had the luxury of being able to see amazing seabirds from our front window when we lived at Glencairn on the False Bay coast. The likes of Soft-plumaged Petrel, Wilson's Storm-petrel, Subantarctic Skua and Sabine's Gull were virtually garden birds, and there were some spectacular movements including tens of thousands of Cory's and Sooty Shearwaters and hundreds of Great Shearwaters in a few hours, and up to 3,000 Arctic Skuas in an afternoon, accompanied by scores of Pomarines and Long-tailed (of which land-based sightings are extremely rare). Manx Shearwater, another SA rarity, was found to be pretty regular in autumn, and I had a few Balearics or Balearic-like shearwaters over the years. Our "garden" list also included Subantarctic Fur Seal and nine species of cetacean including Southern Right Whale (whose breaching and spouting were so noisy they kept us awake at night), Humpback Whale, Orca, Bryde's Whale, and Long-finned Pilot Whale. I don't seawatch in Scotland because it's too cold and boring. Also, I live 40 miles from the sea.
I don't have personal "patch" in Scotland just now, but for eight years kept a list on the farm where we lived in East Lothian. My garden list (seen or heard in or from the garden) there included European Bee-eater, Icterine and Wood Warblers, Black Redstart, Hawfinch, and Scotland's first Iberian Chiffchaff. Elsewhere, I found Scotland's second Pallid Swift and, many years ago when it was still a rarity, the fourth Baird's Sandpiper, plus the only mainland Aquatic Warbler (at St Abb's Head in 1977).
I'm a keen bird ringer (bander). I've ringed about 30,000 birds, mainly passerines (songbirds) but also including a fair number of seabirds. I've ringed the world's largest flying bird (Wandering Albatross), the world's smallest flightless one (Inaccessible Rail), and one of the rarest - Seychelles Magpie-robin. There were only 72 of them in existence when we were working with BirdLife International on Fregate and Cousin Islands in Seychelles.
Much of my ringing was done at the Cape where there were fantastic opportunities to catch rarely-ringed species and to make new discoveries. Our favourite species were nectarivores (nectar-feeders) such as Cape Sugarbirds and sunbirds that gather in large numbers at stands of nectar-rich flowers. We caught over a thousand Cape Sugarbirds at Helderberg Nature Reserve, Somerset West, and the same number of Malachite Sunbirds (the bright green one at the head of this page) at the Leonotis patch at Olifantsbos in the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve.
My ringing nowadays is much less intensive than it used to be, but I continue to ring mainly garden birds, such as finches, thrushes and tits.
The South African ringing scheme is run by Safring, part of the Animal Demography Unit (ADU) of the University of Cape Town. Under its director, Les Underhill, the ADU is a fantastically productive and dynamic department. It recently celebrated 20 years of existence since its previous incarnation as the Avian Demography Unit. The UK ringing scheme is run by the British Trust for Ornithology.

7 Additions to the Home That Are Most Cost-Effective
There are plenty who'd disagree with the classic quote "it takes money to make money." But when it comes to improving your home, you'd be hard-pressed to add value to your home without spending some cash.
Below is a breakdown of the most popular home additions along with costs and payoff. It might surprise you that if you want to recover money spent, you're better off going for the smaller additions. Note: Numbers are based on a Cost Value Report by Remodeling Magazine:
Master Suite
Average Cost: $100,000
Additional value to home: $64,000
As you can see, making improving your master bedroom, complete with full bath and walk-in closet, is only worth it if you actually want the extra space. Otherwise, you're spending 100 grand and are only increasing the value of your home by a bit more than half of what the average homeowner spends. In comparison, turning your attic into a bedroom will cost you less than $50K but raise your resale value by about 75%.
New Steel Entry-Door
Average Cost: $1,000
Additional value to home: $850
There's no better addition you can make when your goals is to get the most return on your investment. After all, curb appeal is a key factor when considering a home's attractiveness and value.
Second Story (family room, bedroom, bathroom)
Average Cost: $150,000
Additional value to home: $97,500
A two-story addition is one of the last cost-effective choices to make if your goal is to spend less to earn more. While your family will no doubt enjoy the new space, you'll end up spending $53,000 more than what you'll be adding to your home's value.
New Vinyl Window
Average cost: $10,000
Additional value to home: $710
Windows are also an excellent choice if you want to add curb appeal to your home while recouping most of your money. If your windows have seen better days, revamp them with insulated vinyl that look better and improve insulation.
Complete Kitchen Remodeling
Average cost: $54,000
Additional value to home: $37,000
To be honest, you're more likely to spend much more than $50K on a kitchen remodel since they're one of the priciest additions out there. Things like new appliances and granite countertops don't come cheap. When you add things features like a tile backsplash or
custom cabinets and you can easily spend $100K just to raise your value by around $40K.
Wood Deck Additional
Average cost: $9,000
Additional value to home: $7,000
People love having an outdoor space they can enjoy. Adding a wood deck or redoing your old one is a cost-effective way of increasing your home's resale value.
New Bathroom
Average cost: $38,000
Additional value to home: $20,000
The average American recovered more than half the cost after adding a midrange bathroom to their home. If you have a large closet or other space without good use, an extra bathroom can be a wise investment.

Once Upon a time…
When choosing a name inspiration can come from anywhere. I love the name Aurora, a name I always relate to the princess in Sleeping Beauty of course. (Loving AU names currently :D). Thinking about this name I thought perhaps other people might gain some inspiration and enjoy reliving the tales of their childhood through these names. Hope you enjoy.
Aurora – Sleeping Beauty
Briar Rose- Sleeping beauty
Jasmine- Aladdin
Alice- Alice in Wonderland
Ariel – Little Mermaid
Cindy "Cinderella" – Cinderella (nn also Ella)
Gretel – Hansel and Gretel
Belle – Beauty and the beast
Wendy – Peter Pan
Esmeralda - Hunchback of Notre Dame
Tiger Lily – Peter Pan
Tinkerbelle – Peter Pan
Melody – Little Mermaid
Flora- Sleeping Beauty
Nala- Lion King
Charlotte- Charlotte's Web
Marian- Robin Hood
Pan- Peter Pan
Peter- Peter Pan, Narnia
Aladdin- Aladdin
Sebastian – Little Mermaid
Hansel – Hansel and Gretel
Robin- Robin Hood
Edmund- Narnia Chronicles
Aslan- Narnia
Triton- Little Mermaid
Eric- Little Mermaid
Stefan- Sleeping Beauty
Phillip- Sleeping Beauty
Perhaps these names will help you achieve you perfect ending in finding the perfect name. Briar especially is different name not used regularly. Unusual it's got a bit of a kick in it? My favourite girl name would be Ariel and Aurora and favourite boys name Pan and Triton. There different, original and quite cute.
And they all lived Happily Ever After

I just adore the name Robin on a boy! I have an Aunt named Robyn aswell so it is sort of a family name.
I think its likely that Robin will pull through to number 1 anyday now. Oh I just love it!!

An odd afterthought, A Cinderella could also go by Ella.

Ella is cute more common and normal than Cindy. If you didnt like the name Cinderlla (which ithink you have to love) ella would be the perfect suggestion to normal your name :D- good suggestion!
