I dabble in lots of oils but this has been with me since 1994! i have gone through more bottles of this than anything! other than TBS vanilla perfume oil,this is what i wear most of the time.It is very strong,so i never smell it directly,i apply it to my pulse points and add a bit to my hair when it's wet,after blowdrying it's smells wonderful.It lasts all day,without fail and just gets better throughout the hours.It smells very different than when it is first applied.I have had friends dab it on and say "what is this? ewww,this isn't how you smell!" but then after a few hours they are sniffing themselves saying "oh,i get it now!" i have always recieved compliments on this,especially when it lingers on pillows and such...it's a crisp,clean,sensual scent! the ONLY time i ever got a bad review on this was about 6 months ago when i had a date that went wrong and at the end of the night i asked why he had an issue with our chemistry being 'off' and he said that i smelled like his grandmother! i was angry,but had to laugh! he was a douchebag anyway and i kept my white musk and ditched him.MEN!!!

I love putting this underneath my mure et musc extreme, it makes it "muskier" and last longer. I don`t like wearing this on its own, I find it to be too old-lady-like. But as a base for any fruity or floral scents it`s PERFECT!

It is OK but very light. citychick1 had a great idea and mixing with vanilla ( I use the lavanilla body cream first)and that does make a nice scent. But basically it is very faint and soft, does not last , is not the musk I am searching for.

I LOVED this when I tried it in the store! I didn't think I would like it because of the musk, but it is delightfully tolerable! It's a very intimate fragrance and the exact opposite of anything floral or overly feminine/sweet smelling. I'm not really into perfumes usually and this suits me perfectly - I would feel quite comfortable wearing this daily.

Men love this fragrance! It's really a nice smell, not overpowering and really sexy if you do it right.
I have the perfume oil and I love it, although the lasting power isnt as good as it used to be, and the bottle isnt good for travel, as it does leak and the oil is not something you want spilled on anything porous. Thats why I cant give it a perfect mark.

i love this! it smells lovely and comforting. my boyfriend loves it hehe. i get alot of compliments when i wear it, and it also lasts for ages.
however, be careful not to put too much on it as it will give you a headache =S
UPDATE: after a while this gets abit sickening and old-ladyish. maybe it was just too mature for me.

I can't say enough good things about this lovely scent. It's incredibly feminine and pleasant, smells clean, comforting, floral and sexy. I like how portable the little bottle is (great for travel or for carrying with you in your purse or work bag) and I also find that the scent lasts all day. Best of all, this is very affordable. I get compliments from people when I wear this-it's a keeper. Can definitely compete with many of the "luxury" fragrances out there both in terms of complexity and lasting power.

I have loved this since school days. Then the perfume oils at body shop used to last forever...what a shame. I still have mostly musk which I bought 15 yrs ago and still three quarters left in the 15ml bottle!
Anyway, white musk perfume oil is far better then the edt or edp. I know it has the initial synthetic smell but i use this on my clothes as it lasts for ages (where it will not stain) and on my wrists. This is an exception because it can give me a headache but i just love this fragrance and always will. I have bought so many perfumes over the years but always come back to this one. It is cheap, convenient to carry and i get so many compliments with this (as well as with opium and coco).
I wish the older perfume oils that have been discontinued would come back. I heard rose musk was lovely but i never got to try. Ananya is also a nice green scent esp for those who would like a cheaper alternative to chanel no 19.

I add a couple of dabs of Vanilla and a couple of dabs of White Musk perfume oils from The Body Shop on my wrist and rub them together. The result is....WOW, absolutely gorgeous!
I got the idea from another reviewer on here who said the two worked well together (so a big thankyou to jules007!) I tried the White Musk oil on its own and wasn't sold on it - thought it was ok, but wouldn't have bought it on its own. But when I mixed it with the Vanilla something magical happened. I'm seriously expecting to be followed down the street when wearing this mix (hopefully by cute guys)!
I haven't actually mixed the contents of the two bottles of perfume oil themselves together as I'm not sure how well that would work and don't want to risk wasting any, but it works well for me just rubbing the two together on my wrist.
So next time you find yourself in The Body Shop, have a test of these two together for yourself and breathe in the beautiful scent - divine!
I knocked one star off only because ideally the scent would come ready blended - but really it's not a hassle to get the two separately, especially when they are so reasonably priced.
UPDATE: I've now blended these two perfume oils together in a little refillable perfume atomiser bottle I found in Boots, and I find this is the best method of applying it, as adding a dab of each on your wrist and rubbing together can result in the scent being a bit overpowering - whereas a little spray on a wrist does the trick. Oh and my bfriend LOVES this - can't get enough of it! Everytime I try out a new perfume he says nooooo, I like your current perfume, don't change it. Which is fab as it's super cheap :-)

Aid from Western Governments: The First Steps
The old order in Eastern Europe is gone. The degree of disarray in the former institutions of power is profound; these seem unlikely to play a significant part in reshaping the region. The success of the successor regimes and the stability of individual nations are not assured, however. To a great extent, domestic political consensus and institution building, national security, and even regional stability will depend upon resolving the economic crisis facing each nation in the region. If for no other reason, this makes the successful resolution of economic crisis an object of policy interest for the West. 1 The question of what the West might do actively to aid the process naturally arises.
This paper considers the question of the West's role in normative terms. After providing a context for discussing the general phenomenon of Western economic assistance, it provides a view of what governments, in particular, can and ought to do during the earliest stages of transforming the economic realities of Eastern Europe.

A dear old friend, Claudia, dropped a new book on prayer in my mailbox. She told me it had been very special to her, and when I opened the golden edged pages, I could feel the warmth of the Holy Spirit embrace me.
She had marked a page for me.
As I began to pray, placing the names of my girls in the prayer, I was so moved by the reaching power of these words, that I cried all the way through it the first reading. I don't lump all of them together, as it "appears" here, I offer it through individually. I have a feeling the Holy Spirit can "collate and sort prayers" but for the sake of my own attention span and a space to settle into scared space with each child, I offer each one separately! God anointed this prayer with my wet witness to His Faithful Love. Will you join me in His Throne Room, on our knees, pressing hard into God's promises for our children? Building a Kingdom, one cathedral heart at a time?
What is a "wet witness?"
It is the greatest weight of Glory I know to give My Lord with the holy heart sealant of my tears. It refers to the eternal empowerment held in
"Jesus Wept." John 11:35

Prayers that avail much by Germaine Copeland
The Children
Father, in the name of Jesus, I pray and confess Your Word over Hope, Sean, Ashlyn, Megan and Kathleen and surround them with my faith ~ faith in Your Word that You watch over it to perform it! I confess and believe that Kathleen, Megan, Ashlyn, Sean and Hope are each disciples of Christ, taught of the Lord and obedient to Your will. Great is the peace and undisturbed composure of Hope, Sean, Ashlyn, Megan and Kathleen, because You, God, contend with that which contends with my children, and You give them safety and ease them.
Father, You will perfect that which concerns me. I commit and cast the care of Hope, Sean, Ashlyn, Megan and Kathleen once and for all over on You Father. Kathleen, Megan, Ashlyn, Sean and Hope are in Your hands, and I am positively persuaded that You are able to guard and keep that which I have committed to You. You are more than enough!
I confess that Kathleen, Megan, Ashlyn, Sean and Hope obey their parents in the Lord as His representatives, because this is just and right. My children Hope, Sean, Ashlyn, Megan and Kathleen honor, esteem, and value as precious their parents, for this is the first commandment with a promise: that all may be well with Hope, Sean, Ashlyn, Megan and Kathleen and that they may live long on this earth. I believe and confess that Hope, Sean, Ashlyn, Megan and Kathleen choose life and love You, Lord, obey and cling to You, for You are their Life and the Length of their days. Therefore, Hope, Sean, Ashlyn, Megan and Kathleen are the head and not the tail, and they shall be above only and not beneath. Kathleen, Megan, Ashlyn, Sean and Hope are blessed when they come in and when they go out.
I believe and confess that You give Your angels charge over Hope, Sean, Ashlyn, Megan and Kathleen to accompany and defend and preserve them in all their ways. You, Lord, are their Refuge and Fortress. You are their Glory and the Lifter of their precious heads.
As mom, I will not provoke, irritate, or fret Kathleen, Megan, Ashlyn, Sean or Hope. I will not be hard on them or harass them or cause them to become discouraged, sullen or morose or to feel inferior and frustrated. I will not break or wound Hope, Sean, Ashlyn, Megan or Kathleen's spirit's, but will rear them tenderly in the training, discipline, counsel, and admonition of the Lord. I will train them in the way they should go, and when they are old, they will not depart from it.
O Lord, my Lord, how excellent (majestic and glorious) is Your name in all the earth! You have set Your glory on or above the heavens. Out of the mouth of babes and unweaned infants You have established strength because of Your foes, that You might silence the enemy and the avenger. I sing praises to Your name, O Most High. The enemy is turned back from Kathleen, Megan, Ashlyn, Sean and Hope in the name of Jesus! Each of them increase in wisdom and in favor with God and man. Amen and Amen and Amen

|In order to study the deformation characteristics of artificial frozen soil with thermal gradient, such as the stress- strain relationship, a series of triaxial compression tests for frozen clay had been conducted by K0DCGF (K0 consolidation, freezing with non-uniform temperature under loading) method and GFC (freezing with non- uniform temperature, isotropic consolidation) method at various consolidation pressures and thermal gradients. Stress-strain curves in K0DCGF test present strain softening during shearing process and the elastic strain is approximately 0.001;but which present the strain hardening characteristics in GFC tests and the elastic strain is approximately 0.01. The elastic modulus and peak stress for frozen clay decrease as the thermal gradient increased at different consolidation pressure both in K0DCGF test and GFC test. The peak stress and elastic modulus in K0DCGF test are significant independent on the pressure melting and crushing phenomena occurring in GFC test. To describe the shear deformation characteristics for frozen clay with thermal gradient, the exponent and power equations considering the correction equation on thermal gradient and model parameters from frozen clay with uniform temperature are developed. The results indicated that the proposed equations can reproduce the shear deformation well both in K0DCGF test and GFC test.

The Red Queen tells the story of the child-bride of Edmund Tudor, who, although widowed in her early teens, uses her determination of character and wily plotting to infiltrate the house of York under the guise of loyal friend and servant, undermine the support for Richard III and ultimately ensure that her only son, Henry Tudor, triumphs as King of England.
Through collaboration with the dowager Queen Elizabeth Woodville, Margaret agrees a betrothal between Henry and Elizabeth's daughter, thereby uniting the families and resolving the Cousins War once and for all by founding of the Tudor dynasty.
The second book in Philippa Gregory's stunning new trilogy, The Cousins War.
'The queen of historical fiction.' The Bookseller
'This interweaving of the personal and the historical in a way that is fluid and entirely believable is, of course, why one reads Gregory in the first place. But the backbone of this book is the manipulation of her central character, the way in which Gregory successfully guides her from hero to antihero, keeping her compelling all along. Once that job is done, and Margaret has gone truly bad, the action breads into a proper gallop. There is more bitching, double-dealing and downright skulduggery than in an entire series of 'The Thick Of It', and a splendidly bloody climax to boot. Delightful escapism' The Times
'The narrative has both drive and immediacy which, combined with the meticulous research characteristic of all Philippa Gregory's books, bring the 15th century alive… The Red Queen is a vivid and compelling evocation of a turbulent period' Daily Express
'This is a vivid recreation of an unsympathetic and ruthless manipulator…compulsive tale of dynastic deviousness' Marie Claire
'Gregory's skill as a storyteller makes the novel fast-paced, wearing its meticulous research lightly as it plunges the readers into a time when power struggles between rival factions resulted in a county at war with itself' Metro
'This dramatic book follows the life of the courageous Margaret Beaufort. After marrying a much older man and becoming a teenage mum, she decides her son will one day be crowned King of England. This gripping novel tells a fictional story of the Tudor monarchy's earliest roots' OK! Magazine
'Philippa Gregory's books are always well-researched, informative and entertaining. This one is brilliant…We have enjoyed every page of a riveting novel.' Sunday Express
'Gregory brings another historical white rabbit out of a hat to deliver an absorbing drama' Wendy Holden, Daily Mail
'An enthralling read rich in period detail, this brings the past to vivid life' Woman
'…intrigue, treachery, and bare-faced ambition, all beautifully fashioned into a lip-smackingly thrilling package' The Times
'Gregory brings another historical white rabbit out of a hat to deliver an absorbing drama' The Daily Mail
'Rarely has history been so seductive' Tatler
'…another stunning piece of historical fiction' Good Housekeeping
'Philippa Gregory's books are always well-researched, informative and entertaining. This one is brilliant. With a little fiction expertly applied to embroider the facts, she makes history come alive.' Sunday Express
'Gregory's stated aim is to give the women of the period a voice and in this she has succeeded magnificently.' Good Book Guide
'Gregory's new novel makes me feverishly want to be a Plantagenet. Perhaps not what she intended, but such are the side effects of bringing history to life as she does.' Red
'A dynamic yarn from the life of Margaret Beaufort, who grew from child-bride to founder of the Tudor dynasty' The Times

Last season I did an article on sweetheart teasers and mentioned that on rare occasions these can be +EV. The good news for those who like action is this in one of those weeks, though you'll need to act quickly once this is posted publicly to lock this in. Right now no-vig moneylines are showing Steelers have an 89.1% chance of winning their game and the Ravens have a 90.5% chance of winnings theirs. At 5Dimes 4-team 14-point "ties lose" teasers are offered at -160. In order for a wager under these terms to be +EV each leg needs to cover 88.6% of the time.
It's possible right now to take Steelers -1 "ties lose" and Raven -2.5 "ties lose". The first of these options is very close to neutral EV, where second is +EV. I needed to select two other teams to go with this. The easy choice was teasing Chicago to +17.5 for reason they are closer to +3 than they are +3.5 at most reduced juice betting sites and also this game has a very low projected total; the over/under is just 35.5. This should be a considerable +EV leg. My final choice is taking advantage of a major line shade and another low point spread. At 5Dimes Chiefs are shaded to +10.5 but are +9 elsewhere. Adding them to this teaser I get Chiefs +24.5 in a game has a posted betting total of just 36.5; this leg is +EV as well. I debated this wager with a few sharp punters and had mixed response, however I am confident this is a rare spot where a +EV sweetheart teaser option exists.
Pick 1: 4-team 14-point "Ties Lose" Teaser Steelers -1, Ravens -2.5, Bears +17.5 Chiefs +24.5 @ 5Dimes.
Two Additional Week 14 Picks
Last week I found a large number of wagers early due to the board appearing wide open. Unfortunately, these picks went 4-4 for -0.45 units, dropping the season record to a still incredibly impressive 33-20-16 for +10.61 units on picks +105 to -128, and 1-3 for +3.00u on +EV long shot wagers. This week the board is far tighter, but does have two additional solid bets on it.
Houston Texans at Cincinnati Bengals
The Texans caught themselves some breathing room last week and are now 9-3 on the season while the Bengals have dropped three of their last 4 and now sit at 7-5 with their Cinderella season apparently not be. I'm actually betting here that the Bengals do stay in the mix and pick up the win this week. The Texans entire team is injured so it makes it very difficult to handicap this one. However knowing that bettors rely far too much on last week's results, this is the classic case where the team that appears headed in the wrong direction has value.
Free Pick #2 Bengals -3 +105 @ Bodog
Basic Strategy Teaser
My final this pick this week is based on basic teaser strategy and shouldn't need too much explanation other than that article. To break it down quickly though in 2-team 6.5 point teasers at -120, each selection needs to win 73.9% of the time in order for the wager to average break even. After removing vig from the moneylines I see the Jets have a 80.6% no-vig win probability and the Patriots have a 78.1% no-vig win probability. A 6.5 teaser gives me Jets -2.5 and Patriots -1.5. The push rates are close to 1% on both -1 and -2. As rough estimate this gives me expected cover rates of Jets -2.5 78.6% and Patriots -1.5 77.1%. Needing each to cover only 73.9% of the time to break even, we're well exceeding that and have a wager with large positive expected value here.
Free pick #3: 2-team 6.5-point teaser Jets -2.5 / Patriots -1.5 @ Bookmaker.eu.

NFL training camps open this week, and though that phrase doesn't make my heart pitter-patter like "pitchers and catchers report," it's still an exciting juncture for fantasy players.
The football e-mails are starting to roll into my box, so I figure now is a good time to cover some questions heading into camp.
Position battles present the biggest mysteries as always. And those at the fantasy game's marquee position, running back, can make or break your season. The three most obviously important competitions will unfold in Indianapolis, Denver and Chicago.

Filter view to see only videos, or only photos, or only stories
I think Lifecake is awesome I just wish there was a way to sort the videos. I would like to be able to see the videos by themselves.
Many thanks for the feedback. It is a great idea. Let's see what traction this idea gets in the forum and once we see some good votes we'll get working on it.

This is such a common sense idea for any product that is essentially a collection manager that I'm surprised your program managers/designers would not have incorporated this. Please consider adding this missing functionality sooner rather than later. Thanks.
Anonymous commented
Yes please!! An option to see videos separately is just what I was going to ask for... And to see photos, videos and stories separately would be even better! ❤
Anonymous commented
Agree! Videos and stories get lost in the flow, making it almost pointless. I've gotten around my adding them as a favourite, but that's a short term solution. Adding a filter/sort option can't be very difficult :-)
Ruaa Hasan commented
I wonder if you could make an option to check the picture separately than video and vise versa if someone want to check only the whole videos without needing to see the pictures as well.

One of the things we here at Coco Maniac love about coconut oil is the many different uses this one simple thing can help with in everyday life. We know what you're thinking. Please, no, not another "All The Things You Didn't Know You Could Do with Coconut Oil" article. They are a dime a dozen. Featured in just about every health magazine and web page. Don't worry. We are not here to replicate the article you read in your last Simple Living delivery (don't get us wrong, we love us some Simple Living). We are here to tell you a couple things you might not know. We have found some pretty cool secret tidbits on how to get the most out of your Organic Virgin Coconut Oil. If, at the end, there wasn't at least one thing that didn't make you raise an eyebrow and mutter, "Huh, I didn't know that" then we will humbly accept your "I told you so."
Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil's Secret Life
Do you own anything leather? We've heard leather treatments can get a little spendy. Not that we would know. We bet you have a pretty good guess what we use. Test an area of your patent leather with a small amount of the oil to soften and smooth it. Works like a charm for us.
Run out of shaving cream? This one is a hit for both the guys and gals out there. Coconut oil is thick enough that the risk of nicking yourself is pretty low. As an oil, however, it allows for a close shave that works wonders.
Sick of getting chowed on by pesky bugs whenever you set foot outdoors in the summertime? Coconut Oil is a natural bug repellant that doesn't come with the usual harsh smells when mixed with essential oils such as mint or rosemary.
Get a face full (not literally, but you get the jist) of lustrous lashes. Lightly coat your eyelashes in in coconut oil before you go to sleep. It will make them stronger over time as well as improve growth.
Going camping? Make life a little easier for yourself by skipping the trip to the hardware store for lighter fluid. Just don't forget the coconut oil. You can make a flame by putting coconut oil soaked cotton balls over your firewood and kindling.
This is merely a starter pack of all the things a bottle of Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil can do. Here's to hoping we didn't get the dreaded "I told you so."

Millionaire businesswoman Tina Aldatz overcame tremendous odds on her road to success.
How can a high school dropout become a millionaire entrepreneur? The story of Tina Aldatz's rise to fame and fortune is quite remarkable.
Tina Aldatz's father was a gang member addicted to heroin, and her mother was a hair stylist who loved to party, drink and smoke pot.
"My parents fought all the time," Tina says. "It eventually turned violent, and my dad almost murdered my mother. After that, my sister Angela and my brother Rocky and I were put in the Good Shepard Shelter for battered women in Los Angeles with our mother.
Within a short time, Tina's mother, Phylis, moved everyone to Buena Park to live with her brother George "Butch" Tuthill and his wife Patty, where they survived on government assistance. Soon, however, they were back to moving from apartment to apartment because her mother couldn't pay the rent. It was during this time that the children found their mother trading food stamps for beer and cigarettes, and they had nothing to eat.
"I was nine years old, and mother simply didn't want to be a mother anymore, so we were on our own," Tina says. "We would go to a store where one of us would spill a drink while the others stole candy. We sold the candy at school to buy food. Angela cooked for us–her specialty was huge pots of beans–I cleaned and Rocky handled the money."
By the time Tina was 11, her mother was abusing her, and she went to live with her father in Arizona. She led an unsettled life, with her father taking her on a three-state fraudulent check-cashing spree. By this time, Tina's father had a new girlfriend and a baby girl. Tina and the new girlfriend didn't get along. When Tina's grandfather, Jesus Aldatz, who she was close to, died in Los Angeles, she went to the funeral and never returned. Her father couldn't attend the funeral because he was wanted by the FBI.
Now 13, Tina moved back with her cocaine-addicted mother, and when she became abusive again, Tina moved in with a family friend and attended Fullerton High School. By age 16, she obtained her high school equivalency, rented her room for $150 a month and worked bagging groceries at Albertson's until age 17, when she began working as a receptionist for Parnelli Jones in Dominguez Hills.
Soon, Tina was heading to a new retail adventure. She attempted to work the makeup counter at Nordstrom South Coast Plaza before she landed an assistant manager position at South Coast Plaza's Victoria's Secret, where she spearheaded its new fragrance business. A few years later, she was manager at Victoria's Secret in Manhattan, its flagship store, and, a few years after that, she moved to BCBG Max Azria, becoming the top merchandizer in the company.
Her broken family beckoned, however, and three years later, Tina was back in Los Angeles working for BCBG. She had been sending money to her brothers and sisters for years, but now there were other children to consider. Her father had three more children through another girlfriend and this girlfriend, who moved on, had three more children with another man. The father of the second set of children was also abusive and wanted nothing to do with them, so they ended up in a shelter, ironically the same shelter Tina and her siblings were in 20 years earlier.
"I took them out of the shelter and, through child protective services, I took Eric and Richard to live with me, and Angela took Kady because she had a daughter," Tina says.
The year was 2001, and Tina's life experiences were to put her on a course to success beyond her wildest dreams. Because of a childhood third-degree burn injury when she walked on buried hot coals at the beach, she was prone to foot blisters, which were exacerbated by wearing high heels working in Manhattan.
"I was cushioning my feet in orthopedic inserts. They looked terrible and didn't alleviate the pain," Tina says.
The idea for Foot Petals was born. Tina diligently set out to find a material that would work for her designer shoe pads and discovered Poron. She then asked her best friend and sales guru Margie Floris, who she had worked with at BCBG Max Azria, what she thought of the product, and Floris loved it, eventually becoming the company's vice president.
To fund the business, Tina maxed her credit cards and cashed out her 401(k), but she still needed an investor. She found him in the relative of a friend, who put up $250,000 for 50% of the company.
The orders took off, but suddenly cancelled after 9/11. That's when Tina and Margie decided to switch gears and instead of selling to high-end retailers, sell to mom and pop stores. Over 10 years, sales increased an average of 300% a year, and by 2010, the company reached more than $10 million in sales. Tina sold Foot Petals in 2011 to R.G Barry Corp. for $14 million.
Along the way, Tina was featured as an "Entrepreneur to Watch" in Forbes Magazine, Comerica Bank Women in Business Awards' "Woman of Entrepreneurship," "Business Woman of the Year" by the National Latina Business Women Association, and Inc. Magazine listed Foot Petals in its "Top 500 Fastest Growing Private Companies in the U.S."
This whip-smart, hard-working lady has not slowed down. She decided that giving back was in order and has been sharing her story at shelters, universities and women's business groups across the country. A resident of Nellie Gail Ranch in Laguna Hills, Tina is a member of Hispanic 100's board of directors, where she chairs its Mentor Program to help young, goal-oriented Latinos between the ages of 18 and 24 become successful in business and civic responsibility through relationships with successful Hispanic professionals. She also supports Big Brothers Big Sisters of Orange County, Girls, Inc. and an endowment she created through Foot Petals for the Two Ten Foundation, which provides scholarships to women in the footwear industry.
In 2014, Tina debuted her autobiography, From Stilettos to the Stock Exchange, which details her life story and uplifting road to success. She shares her six essentials for business success–the three M's or best practices: money, marketing and management, and the three R's or core values: reputation, resourcefulness and resilience.
As of September, 2015, Tina and Margie launched Savvy Travelers for on-the-go consumers and travelers. It is a lifestyle, health and wellness company, whose daily-use products replace the small liquid items that fliers with carry-on luggage must keep in a one-quart bag, making travel simple, smart and safe.
Tina credits her success to a day in the fourth grade at Beatty Elementary School in Buena Park when she saw one of her classmates picked up in a limousine.
"I remember thinking that I wanted to be there someday," she says.
Her dream was borne out through drawing pictures of herself in business suits and carrying a briefcase–a portent of her life to come.
Little did she know then that that was exactly where she was headed.

Grexit: Hedge Funds move back into bullion, gold price jumps most in six months
(Bloomberg) — Hedge funds are stepping back onto the gold bandwagon as political turmoil in Greece and government actions in Asia helped send prices to their biggest monthly advance since June.
Bullish wagers on the metal increased for the first time in three weeks and have more than doubled since mid-November, U.S. government data show. Short holdings dropped for the sixth week in seven. Bullion rose for a second straight month in December.
While cheap oil has kept inflation in check, gold's appeal as an alternative asset got a boost as Greek opposition to austerity measures that may prompt the country's exit from the euro area. China has lowered interest rates and waived some bank lending requirements to help spur growth, while Japan expanded stimulus measures. Bullion prices are up 6.6 percent since touching a four-year low in early November.
"People are running to gold because it's the last haven after the dollar," said George Gero, a New York-based precious metals strategist who helps manage $500 million at RBC Capital Markets LLC. "The problems in Greece especially and the possibility, according to the Germans, that they're preparing for Greece to leave the euro, there's geopolitical turmoil."
Net-long positions rose 5.7 percent to 98,391 futures and options in the week ended Dec. 30, after dropping 11 percent in the previous two weeks, according to U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission data published Jan. 5. Short wagers slid 8.2 percent.
December Rally
Bullion futures advanced 0.7 percent last month and traded at $1,205.40 an ounce by 12:59 p.m. Seoul time on the Comex in New York. The Bloomberg Commodity Index fell 7.6 percent in December, the sixth straight monthly decline, while the Bloomberg Dollar Index rose 2.2 percent, the sixth straight gain. The MSCI All-Country Index of world equities slid 2 percent in December.
As a traditional haven in times of turmoil, gold got a boost from concern that Greece may leave the euro area, which sent the European currency to its lowest against the dollar since 2006. Prime Minister Antonis Samaras failed to secure backing for a presidential candidate, leading to snap elections in three weeks.
The opposition Syriza party, which leads in the polls, is campaigning against austerity measures imposed as a condition of Greece's two bailouts after the financial crisis. Samaras says a Syriza victory would lead to default and the country's exit from the euro. Gold priced in euros climbed 12 percent last year and this week reached the highest since September 2013.
Investment Alternative
A retreat in equity markets also is fueling demand for gold. After reaching a record on Dec. 29, the Standard & Poor's 500 Index of equities is down 3.3 percent, and the MSCI All- Country Index also has declined.
Physical buying in China is rising as the country's New Year celebrations approach in February, and the annual rolling average of volumes traded on the Shanghai Gold Exchange is at an all-time high, Barclays Plc analyst Suki Cooper said in a Jan. 5 note. Eased import restrictions in India and smaller Chinese stockpiles may also help spur demand in 2015, Australia & New Zealand Banking Group Ltd. strategists Victor Thianpiriya and Mark Pervan said in a Dec. 17 report.
In Japan, the government announced plans last week to reduce corporate tax rates, after approving a 3.5 trillion yen ($29 billion) fiscal-stimulus package to boost the economy after a sales-tax increase in April caused a slump in consumption.
Reduced Demand
Gold demand remains weak after dropping in 2014, when prices fell for a second straight year. Coin sales at the U.S. Mint saw the biggest annual drop in eight years, while gold- backed exchange-traded products lost $7.4 billion, the second straight decline, data compiled by Bloomberg show. The plunge in crude oil to below $50 a barrel, the lowest in more than five years, is eroding gold's appeal as an inflation hedge.
U.S. economic growth is fueling speculation the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates that have been near zero percent since 2008. Fewer Americans filed for unemployment benefits in 2014 than at any time in 14 years, and the economy expanded at a 5 percent annualized rate in the third quarter, the most in 11 years, recent government data show. Holdings in the SPDR Gold Trust, the biggest exchange-traded fund backed by gold, fell on Dec. 31 to 709.02 metric tons, the lowest since 2008.
Investors have also turned away from gold as the dollar rallied against other currencies and U.S. equities surged to records in 2014, even after unrest in the Middle East and Russian President Vladimir Putin's annexation of part of Ukraine led to economic sanctions.
No Rush
"There's less global tension, Putin is on a leash, there's low inflation, and that hurts gold," Ashmead Pringle the president of GreenHaven Commodity Services, whose GreenHaven Continuous Commodity Index Fund oversees about $275 million, said in a telephone interview from Atlanta on Jan. 2. "I don't see any big short-term rush back to gold as a safe haven."
Net-wagers across 18 U.S. traded commodities fell 1.9 percent to a four-week low of 795,256 contracts as of Dec. 30, CFTC data show.
Speculators became less bullish on oil as wagers on a rally slid for a second week, down 3.6 percent to 199,388 contracts. West Texas Intermediate tumbled 46 percent last year, the most since 2008, and traded around $50.25 a barrel today.
Agriculture Holdings
Combined net-long positions across 11 agricultural products rose 0.4 percent to 521,050 contracts.
Investors cut bullish wagers on coffee for a fifth straight week to the lowest since February, after futures slid 14 percent in the fourth quarter.
The net-long position in wheat dropped 8.1 percent to 20,481 contracts. Prices on the Chicago Board of Trade fell 4.8 percent last week, the most in 15 weeks, as U.S. exports declined and Russian export taxes failed to disrupt ample world supplies. Global output of corn, soybeans and wheat are expected to reach records this marketing year.
"We have a strong dollar that's been pushing commodities down, and you also have energy declining significantly," Jon Guyer, a Laurel, Maryland-based portfolio manager at Arrow Investment Advisors LLC, which manages $722 million, said in a telephone interview Jan. 2. "If energy remains very low, that would help reduce the overall cost of production," allowing growers to expand output, he said. – BLOOMBERG

Glad I don't live in Oklahoma
You've probably heard by now that Oklahoma had a
5.6 earthquake
Saturday night. Did you know they had a 4.7 Saturday morning? And a 4.0 Sunday morning? Then they had another 4.7 last night. They've also had about 25 smaller ones, probably aftershocks, in between. I didn't feel the first ones, but last night at work I heard the last one. It made the metal stairs beside my office rock and knock against my (inside) window. I thought someone was trying to be funny and scare me as the stairs are behind me right outside my office (inside the factory). I didn't see anyone and just thought "funny, ha ha" until a few minutes later I was being asked if I felt the earthquake.
I wasn't thinking of earthquakes at the time but stormy weather. We were having heavy rain and thunder but Oklahoma was having it worse, including
tornadoes, hail and flooding
Yep, that's right. They were having tornadoes and earthquakes the same night.
I'm glad I don't live in Oklahoma right now! I haven't heard of people being hurt in all this so I hope everyone in Oklahoma is okay.
This morning for Tatting Tea Tuesday I'm having a cup of
coffee :-) This time change is a pain. Okay, so we fall back and gain an hour. Someone tell my internal clock that it's now 7:00 AM instead of 8:00 AM!
Today I'm sharing this handkerchief that my mother gave me. It is from her aunt, though I don't know that my great-aunt tatted it. The hen and chicks edging was made first then sewn on, easily seen as several picots have come loose from the edge. The outside picots were curled a bit, as usually happens, so I pinned them out, though I didn't take the time to iron the hanky itself.
I'm thinking of how best to display this and several other tatted pieces I have from other family members. Maybe a shadow box?
"There are two big forces at work, external and internal. We have very little control over external forces such as tornadoes, earthquakes, floods, disasters, illness and pain. What really matters is the internal force. How do I respond to those disasters? Over that I have complete control. " Leo F. Buscaglia

I was asked to describe my vision of hell the other day to a creative writing class -- one or two students even stayed awake long enough to hear the answer.
Basically I see hell as a bleak, joyless place with a lot of long lines, sort of like a warmer version of the Motor Vehicle Administration.
There will be flames everywhere you look and pools of melted tar underfoot. Men will walk around in sweat-stained undershirts, Bermuda shorts, knee-length black socks and sandals. Women will wear loose-fitting "I'm With Stupid" T-shirts and leopard print stretch pants tucked inside cowboy boots.

Arabica Coffee Beans – Almost everything you need to know
There are diverse varieties of coffee beans that are found all in excess of the world but 1 of the most extremely developed and sought-soon after beans are Arabica coffee beans. Initially initial identified in Yemen, in the Arabian Peninsula in excess of 1000 years in the past, these beans account for 60% of all coffee produced around the world.
Arabica coffee beans increase in big plant bushes that bloom white fragrant coffee flowers. The aroma is sweet and beautifully floral. Coffee flowers are mentioned to smell like Jasmine. After the flowers boom, it generates beautiful red coffee cherries. Within this coffee fruit is the prize Arabica coffee bean. Top quality farms that grow these beans know the value of selecting the coffee fruit by hand and only when the coffee cherries are at their ripest and sweetest. This is simply because the fruit about the coffee cherry has a huge effect on the high quality of the coffee and how the coffee beans will taste as soon as brewed. Coffee beans picked when the fruit is at its sweetest aids make the organic flavor notes in the coffee beans soar. Fantastic patience is necessary by the farmer. Farms that rush to harvest coffee beans when they are not at their optimum will in no way develop premium coffee. These types of farmers want to increase and funds in on their coffee beans quickly and base their businesses on generating quantity of coffee, not high quality. Farmers who focus on increasing coffee beans for best specialty coffee roasters know that all very good things come to people who wait. These farmers have near relationships with specialty roasters who will pay out them primarily based on the top quality they create. Farmers who develop premium Arabica coffee beans can really prosper in this direct trade business model. When they are in the businesses of marketing top quality product, they can command a a lot larger price tag for the coffee they make.
Even although it really is correct to say that the specialty coffee globe will typically shell out considerably a lot more for premium Arabica, for the farmer increasing Arabica it truly is not normally basic. Arabica coffee plants are really vulnerable exclusively to the cold weather circumstances and also to diverse varieties of illnesses. This indicates that they want a great deal of enjoy and care when being grown to ensure that they can produce the targeted amount. Although this kind of coffee is widespread in most elements of the world, it is considerably more expensive than the other most broadly produced coffee variety, which is recognized as Robusta.
The coffee that is manufactured from Robusta coffee beans is common in many parts of the world. They can be brewed on their personal but lack the quality and taste of Arabica. Coffee from Robusta coffee beans can have a bitter taste. They are frequently used due to the fact Robusta beans are more affordable coffee beans that can be utilized to blend with other types of coffee. Often coffee blends that are mixed with this bean become much better simply because of the aroma and taste that is additional to them. There are variations located in these kinds of coffee beans, based on the fact that they are grown in different components of the world. They can taste differently, which permits them to be blended in a different way.
Other than the growing and superior taste differences of Arabica coffee beans, Arabica coffee beans are visually distinct looking, as nicely. They have a brighter look than the other coffee beans and this is what physically distinguishes them from the rest. They are normally given distinct names based on the country that they come from.
With all the distinctions discussed, one thing to don't forget is that the best coffee beans are most of all grown with enjoy.

Well hello there, pillow. Come a little closer, won't you?
I want these. All of them. On the same couch. Or the same bed.
I want to roll around and make sweet pillow love to them in all of their happy, bright, prettyness.
I'm feeling too lazy to actually list where they are all from. If you reeeaaally must know, I will tell you.
But since I sometimes don't even have time to shower on a daily basis,
I doubt anyone thinks I'm trying to pawn these off as my own creations.

For over 30 years, from the Oscars to the Olympics, NEP has been a truly global force in broadcast production, with an unrivalled reputation for technical excellence and innovation.
NEP's UK operation in Bracknell is one of the largest OB providers in Europe, and when a fire at its premises in November 2015 destroyed five of its OB vehicles, the speed at which the company responded was quite astounding: the fire occurred on a Tuesday, and they were out working again by the weekend.
This unfortunate accident did however provide NEP with an opportunity to create a fleet of four brand new UHD trucks, and in this exclusive One On One video interview, Paul Fournier and Neville Hooper of NEP UK let us into their Aurora truck to show us around and share with us the secrets of how they tackle the challenges of working in the acoustic environment of an OB vehicle.
Happily these are challenges that Genelec have helped NEP conquer, since 8351 SAM monitors form the heart of the truck's 5.1 audio monitoring system. Having spent the day at HHB in London auditioning a host of monitors:
"We came to the 8351s, and we both looked at each other and went 'Wow!' The presentation is very open, they're easy to listen to and the directionality is superb. With a bit of help from the SAM DSP as well, you can iron out any of the really nasty resonances and things that will go on in a room of this nature."

Stats: Rangana Herath becomes first left-arm spinner to pick up 400 Test wickets
Sri Lanka scripted an amazing heist against Pakistan in the first test match at Dubai when they emerged victorious by 21 runs.
Rangana Herath, the ageless wonder from Sri Lanka assumed centre stage all over again as he scalped 6 wickets for just 43 runs as Pakistan were dismantled for 114 runs in their second essay.
As Herath got rid of Mohammed Abbas, he scripted history by becoming the first left-arm spinner in the world to scalp 400 Test wickets. He is also the second Sri Lankan bowler to breach the 400-wickets mark.
Chasing a target of 136, Pakistan never got going and the combination of Herath and off-spinner Dilruwan Perera took advantage of a weary and sluggish fifth-day pitch to send the hosts packing for the just 114 runs. Only Haris Sohail showed some resistance and when he was batting with captain Sarfraz Ahmed, Pakistan believed, but then Herath stepped up and got rid of Sarfraz to send the Pakistan innings hurtling towards a frenetic end.
Dilruwan ended with 3 wickets, but the stage was set on fire by Herath who took the game by the horns and decided to turn the match in the favor of his team on the final session on the final day.
Herath has been a scourge for Pakistan in the recent past (100 wickets against Pakistan so far) and hence it was not surprising when he was man responsible for ending Pakistan's unbeaten run in Abu Dhabi.
Most Test wickets by left-arm spinners
400: Rangana Herath
362: Daniel Vettori
297: Derek Underwood
266: Bishan Bedi
188: Shakib Al Hasan
He has also entered a unique list and considering his wicket-taking spree one can only expect him to rise up the order:
Most wickets after 84 Tests....
478: M Muralidharan
419: Richard Hadlee
416: Dale Steyn
400: Rangana Herath
397: Anil Kumble

Bonfire Night in Lowestoft should be a time to enjoy a great bonfire, watch the fireworks and have fun with family and friends. But remember that safety should be paramount. So read our tips for building and having a safe bonfire in Lowestoft.
Fire can spread easily, so where and how you build your bonfire is important. If you have a bonfire, follow these simple guidelines:
Check out this videos on YouTube for how NOT to light a bonfire:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqhUvtZpKN0
And, wearing my other hat as an On Call Firefighter, please don't do anything daft like you'll witness in the video. I'd love to meet you but perhaps not when your shed, fence or house is on fire!
Once the bonfire is lit, make sure you:
Once the bonfire has died down, spray the embers with water to stop it reigniting.
But above all, have a safe and enjoyable bonfire night in Lowestoft

Everything is Impossible. Anything is Possible.*
This is exactly how I feel right now. I don't mean right now in this moment; I mean right now in general. I mean this sums up the sense that I have constantly. I'm both scuppered and free. At any instant I may hit a brick wall or discover opportunity. In a way this is how things always are. Impossible, amazing. How do you reconcile the fact that you always want what you don't have with the fact that you have something special? You don't, because this is how we have always been, this is how we always will be. You just sit there and thing, everything is impossible, anything is possible. You think that until you don't know what anything means anymore.

Andy Murray improved on yesterday performance with a good victory against Janko Tipsarevic at the Aegon Championships. Murray who had lost to the Serb on three occasions, including their first meeting on the same Queen's Club Centre Court five years ago won the 3rd round match today 6-4 7-6 (7-3).
After dropping his serve in the opening game, he recovered to level the set at 3-3, with Murray leading 5-4, the rain once again forced play to halt, after an hour the players returned and it was Murray's turn to break immediately on the resumption of play to take the first set.
In the second set, the Serbian broke once again at the start of the set and then saved two break points in his next service game, but Murray soon levelled at 4-4. No more breaks of serve would follow and it would come down to a tie-break, which Murray won comfortably 7-3.
After the match Murray was cornered as he walked of court by the BBC,
I thought it was a high-quality match, We both played very well, especially at the end of the second set. There were a lot of long rallies and it was a really good test. I fell down a couple of times [but] luckily the ankle's fine, it's the best it's felt.
Murray will face Marin Cilic in the quarter finals on Friday.

About Olivia
Taken Care Of dogs my whole life
I absolutely love dogs, I live in Lawrence 30 minutes away from my own dogs which I hardly see and it breaks my heart. I love taking care of dogs and making them feel as loved and as cared for as my own. I've potty trained dogs, I've raised dogs since puppies to 3 years old. I've had old dogs and big dogs and little dogs, I treat them all the same and all with ...
What Olivia would like to know about your dog
I'd like to know the age and breed of the dog and if they have any special routines or special toys that they would like to keep with them or keep safe. If there are any mental or physical issues and if they can interact with new people well. I have no preference on breeds, a pup is a pup and I care for them all the same.

Bennett, the Seattle Seahawks star defensive end, posted a notice on social media Friday announcing his decision to quit the delegation.
It's unclear if Avril will still make the trip, which is sponsored by the country's Ministry for Strategic Affairs and Public Diplomacy in cooperation with the Tourism Ministry.
The others scheduled to attend the trip: Oakland defensive tackle Dan Williams, Titans tight end Delanie Walker, San Francisco running back Carlos Hyde, Eagles linebacker Mychal Kendricks, New Orleans defensive end Cameron Jordan, Miami receiver Kenny Stills, Arizona defensive lineman Calais Campbell, Denver running back Justin Forsett, and ESPN commentator and former National Football League linebacker Kirk Morrison.
'I want to be a "voice for the voiceless", and I can not do that by going on this kind of trip to Israel'. But please know that I did this not for you, but to be in accord with my own values and my own conscience'.
During their seven-day visit to Israel, the players will visit Haifa's Rambam hospital in northern Israel, the Yad Vashem Holocaust Museum, and meet with representatives from the Black Hebrew community in Dimona in Israel's south.
The letter urged the players "to consider the political ramifications of attending the trip, drawing connections between the struggles faced by Black and Brown communities in the US, and Palestinian, Eritrean and Sudanese communities in Israel/Palestine".
The Denver Broncos running back Justin Forsett also said he would not be going on the trip.
During the visit, the players will hold an exhibition game together with players from the Israeli Football Association on February 18 in Jerusalem.
The decision for Bennett also came down to wanting to live his life similar to how one of his hereos, Muhammad Ali, did. These trips bringing celebrities to Israel are part of a larger "Brand Israel" campaign to help the Israeli government normalize and whitewash its ongoing denial of Palestinian rights'.
Bennett explained he was initially excited about the trip, but once he found out he will be a brand ambassador of goodwill, he backed out.
It was undersigned by various far-left organizations, including the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, the Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel and its U.S. -based counterpart, as well as Jewish Voice for Peace.
The announcement comes just days after Bennett's brother Marcellus, who plays for the New England Patriots, said he would reject an offer from President Trump to be honored with his Super Bowl-winning team-mates at the White House.
