So I only have one again for you guys this week, it's one that I don't know much about other than the synopsis, I've not read anything by the other authors and so on. You gotta admit, I do find some intriguing little gems right?! This one looks like it's going to be fun, knights and princesses, and murder and ghosts, what's not to love? Or be very, very intrigued by?! GIMME GIMME!
Two unlikely allies must journey across a kingdom in the hopes of thwarting death itself.
All his life, Nels has wanted to be a knight of the kingdom of Avërand. Tall and strong, and with a knack for helping those in need, the people of his sleepy little village have even taken to calling him the Knight of Cobblestown.
But that was before Nels died, murdered outside his home by a mysterious figure.
Now the young hero has awoken as a ghost, invisible to all around him save one person—his only hope for understanding what happened to him—the kingdom's heir, Princess Tyra. At first the spoiled royal wants nothing to do with Nels, but as the mystery of his death unravels, the two find themselves linked by a secret, and an enemy who could be hiding behind any face.
Nels and Tyra have no choice but to abscond from the castle, charting a hidden world of tangled magic and forlorn phantoms. They must seek out an ancient needle with the power to mend what has been torn, and they have to move fast. Because soon Nels will disappear forever.

I stole visuals from the Arabian Sea, songs
from the forests that let me hide, echoes from
the higher Himalayan autumn, colours
from the feathers of my favourite birds.
I stole everything from the world around me
To later label and resell as poetry
I am a stealer and I am unoriginal
my breath reeks of alcohol I haven't tasted
my journals talk of places I haven't visited
my body is a lie floating around scavenging leftover vibes
from used rooms, bus stops, joints, streets, gardens,
windows, buses, footpaths, temples, mosques, churches
I lent my entire present to time's helpless passing
I let books plot inside me new routes to repeat myself
Posing as a true friend I coldly absorbed
the spoken fears of loved ones as future writing prompts
And before idols I stood faceless with hands together pretending
to be devout, honest, pure, untouched, virgin
to the ways of country liquor, beedis and the fresh aroma
of love making,
of skewers, of a woman's breath on my face, of a farmer's rant
that flew over my head. I am a fake.
Others lied to win or escape or crossover
I lied to let go of what could never be mine
And using napkins, papers, screens, barks, stone walls
I recorded sightings I've unfairly hoarded for centuries
As for those who raised me to become someone else, know
That I've whored myself out to life and become nobody
And I'm returning home with nothing but poetry
Come, let's have some tea
Badly Written Homecoming Letter
I stole visuals from the Arabian Sea, songs

(A382 Bridge to Steps Bridge)
NAME OF RIVER: Teign.
WHERE IS IT?: North Dartmoor. It is a large river with two significant steep tributaries, the North and South Teign.
PUT-INS/ TAKE-OUTS: There is very limited roadside parking beside the A382 Bridge at SX 713893. Access the river through a gate from the footpath on river left. It is also possible to start upstream for more grade 3.
This section finishes at Steps Bridge at SX 804883. Take out directly below the bridge on river right and walk up a path to the road. There is a decent car park a hundred yards up the hill from here.
Another possible takeouts are Fingle Bridge SX743899 or Clifford Bridge, SX 782898.
APPROX LENGTH: 7 miles.
TIME NEEDED: Approx three hours.
ACCESS HASSLES: As far as I am aware, there is no access agreement. You certainly want to do this outside the fishing season; the river is lined all along by fishing spots.
WATER LEVEL INDICATORS: The Teign has the second largest catchment area on Dartmoor, after the Dart. However one of it's two tributaries, the South Teign, is dammed. Hence, heavy rain has less effect then one might imagine.
We paddled this after a night with some heavy rain, during which the Dart had risen from 4 on the gauge to 5. It was medium-low; the weir at the takeout bridge was rocky but paddleable on river right.
High water would be fun, but care would have to be taken regarding low tree branches.
GRADING: Grade 2 (3-)
MAJOR HAZARDS/ FALLS: There is a metal bridge just below the put-in which trails steel wire and would be a hazard in flood. Plenty of low trees to avoid. In October 2002, there was a tree right across the river half a mile below Fingle Bridge.
Mark Harris (December 2002)...'An additional tree has fallen across the river approx 300 yards past Clifford Bridge. The tree has many branches straining the river and some tricky manouvering is required to squeeze through on river left. We paddled in low-medium levels, in high water this tree could be a serious hazard.'
GENERAL DESCRIPTION: An enjoyable quiet trip through scenic woods. The first half is best, but grade 2 rapids appear all the way to the end.
Just below the put-in bridge, the flat river passes below an old metal bridge which has loose metal wires trailing in the river; be careful.
A mile from the put-in, the hills close in on either side and the river squeezes between two big rounded boulders...this is the dramatic point of no return for the 'Teign Gorge'. Unless of course, you walk or paddle back upstream again.
Just downstream, the river backs up behind a rather gnarly 10 foot high weir. This can be run by the fish steps on river left or portaged easily on the same bank.
Between here and Fingle Bridge is the best of the Teign, enjoy it. Continuous grade 2 paddling with small drops and boulders to negotiate. Two steep technical rapids require a fair bit of manouvering, so they are probably grade 3.
The only flat on this section is where another weir pools the current. This can be run anywhere, but has a convenient chute on river left.
The river flattens out below Fingle Bridge for a while. This lasts until a sloping weir is reached; easily paddleable. Between here and the takeout, infrequent grade 2 rapids keep the interest up. Clifford Bridge is a possible finish point. Otherwise, finish this pleasant trip by carrying on to Steps bridge and running the small weir above the bridge.
OTHER NOTES: The Teign provides an excellent alternative for those who want an easy paddle, but are sick to death of the Dart Loop; it's slightly easier but more adventurous! Further up the Teign is some more grade 3 and if you explore the North Teign, some steep creeking.
CONTRIBUTED BY: Mark Rainsley, also Mark Harris.
Any idea what level is "safe" to paddle this at also?
Between Dogmarsh Bridge and the salmon leap weir on the River Teign is a ruined metal bridge which tends to catch trees. I walked past there today and noticed another tree has become wedged under the bridge. At the moment the river is surprisingly low, but if the water level were to rise this bridge may become impassible. Some kayakers went through this morning, but they felt it could be a problem in a canoe. At the moment you have to duck under another tree to get through.
Although there are various parts of trees stuck in the gorge section all are passable relatively easily with care.
The only issue is further downstream just before Cliffords Bridge. A tree has come down which blocks all bar a boat-width extreme river right. It was not an issue at this water level; in higher water I suspect you would float over the top , but at lower water it could be more of an problem for the beginners groups/uni fresher trips who might use this river. It is visible from a long way upstream and there is plenty of room to stop an inspect if in any doubt.

MCLV Style: Embellish Me
Fun accessories and embellished pieces are a great way to take a basic look to a new level. So next time you're putting together a nighttime look be creative and layer on the extras!
{You can shop similar pieces by clicking these hyperlinks: Pleated Leather Skirt – The Limited, Embellished Top – Zara, Oxblood Knit Tights – DKNY via Bloomingdales, Spike Embellished Heels – The Limited, Black Patent Clutch – MICHAEL Michael Kors via Nordstrom, Ring – BCBG Max Azria & Bracelet – Forever 21}
{You can view this outfit on Lookbook.nu and Pose}
{Check out outtakes from this shoot here – Just log into Facebook to view}
This outfit could have just been black skirt + black top but with the addition of brightly colored tights, an embellished collar, fun jewelry, and spiked heels it's a more one-of-a-kind look. But I did discover that the downside of this too-cute pleated faux leather skirt from The Limited is that it wrinkles sooooo easily. And quickly. Thus the absence of straight-on shots!
What's your favorite fun extra this Winter or the piece you're most excited to try out?
MCLV Style: Lazy Stripes
Sometimes what a girl needs is layers. And lots of them. This was a look that I threw together for a CrossFit competition a few weeks ago – The keys for that kind of day are :(1) Comfortable, (2) Easy to move in, and (3) Warm! The third ended up being especially important as the venue had a huge open door and it started raining when we first got there!
{You can shop similar pieces by clicking these hyperlinks: Striped Sweater Tunic – H&M, Leggings – Forever 21, Cropped Blazer – Banana Republic, Studded Ankle Boots – C Label via Piperlime, Patent Satchel – Express, Skull Pendant – Asos, and Bracelets – H&M, Asos & JewelMint}
{You can view this outfit on Lookbook.nu and Pose}
{Check out outtakes from this shoot here – Just log into Facebook to view}
I have a confession to make. This blazer is one of the oldest {non-heirloom} pieces in my closet. My mother bought it for me SEVEN years ago when she took me on a shopping trip to equip me for interviewing and starting my first post-collegiate job. When people say "classic" or "investment piece" this, my friends, is what they're referring to!
Do you have any classic, it'll-always-be-in-style pieces in your wardrobe? What's your favorite investment piece that you've bought over the years?
MCLV Style: Prim & Proper
Working in the corporate world means that my office style tends towards classic and traditional – I keep my arms covered and wear knee-length skirts or dresses 4 – 5 days a week. But just because my style is fairly formal doesn't mean I can't have fun with work fashion!
{You can shop similar pieces by clicking these hyperlinks: Embellished Empire-Waist Dress – Donna Ricco from Nordstrom, T-Strap Heels – Zara, Top-Handle Handbag – Zara, Black Leather Bow Headband – Banana Republic, Geometric Gold Bracelet – BCBG, Gold Wrap Ring – JewelMint & Black Bow Ring – Forever 21}
{You can view this outfit on both Lookbook.nu and Pose}
{Check out outtakes from this shoot here – Just log into Facebook to view}
What drew me to this was the embellished empire waist, it gave the retro-silhouetted dress a little something extra. And because the waist is already so dramatic I usually skip the necklaces with this dress and just pile on bracelets and rings. Or in this case, a black faux leather bow headband – J'adore! ❤
What's the dress code in your office? Do you usually dress formally, informally, or business casual like me? Do you have a work "uniform" that you usually wear?
Fall On A Budget
At the beginning of October I shared my Fall 2012 Must Haves, which included eye-catching patterns & prints, faux leather, fun pants, tweed pieces, asymmetrical details, and the color de jour for Fall – Oxblood.
It's easy to see pictures from the Fall 2012 collections and put together a mental list of all the things you want, and then give up in frustration because you can't afford straight-from-the-runway pieces. But I'm here to tell you that we can very easily update your wardrobe for Fall without having to dip into your 401k. I promise!
I like to get one or two great new investment pieces each season – something like an updated but classic Little Black Dress, a chic new handbag, or a timeless trench – but I'll also collect a handful of fun, on-trend pieces from less expensive stores that quickly update my looks for the season. There are great stores like Zara, ASOS, H&M, and TopShop were you can find trendy, well-made pieces each season for a steal. Read on for some of my personal suggestions & recommendations as well as a collection of great articles that'll steer you in the right direction for all of your Fall 2012 needs.
- Where Do Editors Really Shop from Refinery 29 is just the sort of article that I love to read – Knowing where the most fashionable and stylish women in the fashion world shop is like being handed the keys to the kingdom! And wouldn't you know it, along with the high-end designers that you'd expect them to mention, they also list great inexpensive shopping destinations like E-bay, Target, Zara, Amazon, Madewell, J.Crew, TopShop, JewelMint, ShoeMint, and even The Salvation Army. Great news, isn't it?
- The Glitter Guide's Caitlin's Budget Buys: Fall Essentials Under $80 includes fabulous beauty & fashion finds from Target, TopShop, Old Navy, Dorothy Perkins, Christian Siriano for Payless, ASOS, L'Oreal, and Sole Society.
Another lucky break for us fashion obsessed is that more and more high-end designers have been coming out with reasonably priced collections for retailer giants like Payless, Target, and Macys.
{Long-sleeve Shirt Dress in Red Geometric Print – $40 @ Kirna Zabete for Target, Long-Sleeve Satin Blazer – $60 (on sale) @ Nicole Richie for Impulse & Racquel Side Zip Bootine – $50 @ Christian Siriano for Payless}
Lucky Magazine's 100 Cheap Fall Finds is a trove of fun Fall pieces from printed pants and embellished collars to chic dresses and leather trimmed jackets. In addition to featuring clothing from Luckymag.com, they included other retail websites like Romwe.com, Pixiemarket.com, Urban1972.com, Levis.com, and Ulta.com.
- Two of the trends that I'm most excited for this Fall are printed pants and leather-trimmed pieces and luckily for all of us the fun website The Cheap Chica's Guide to Style featured fabulous recommendations for both trends – Geometry Class & Just The Sleeves Please. So no matter what type of fashion you're in the mood for this site has what you're looking for!
The less expensive secondary lines created by designers and sold at department stores like Bloomingdale's, Macys, Nordstrom, and Kolh's are great pieces to keep an eye out for.
{Left to Right: Marc by Marc Jacobs 'Jac' Denim Leggings – $140 @ Nordstrom, MICHAEL Michael Kors Sleeveless Cowl Neck Banded Bottom Dress – $45 (on sale) @ Bloomingdale's, and LC Lauren Conrad Embellished Ruffle Tee – $40 @ Kohl's}
- Not quite sure how to approach stores like Nordstrom Rack, TJ Maxx, Marshall's, or Ross? Refinery 29 took it upon themselves to teach us how in their piece Discount Shopping – How To Shop At Marshalls where they had three different editors put together 6 cute looks under $50. Wow!
- Waiting for stores to have announce a big sale is a great way to find the pieces you're craving without paying full-price. Not sure just how to make this tactic work for you? Check out Sales Rack Skinny: The Subtle Statement's Sale Shop Tactics for tips that'll help you find just what you're looking for in stores or even online.
Are you still in the mood for more tips, recommendations, and suggestions for updating your wardrobe, Fall dressing, and online shopping? Stay tuned for an upcoming interview with Style For Hire and a series of informative posts all about online shopping.

MCLV Style: Workin' That Tee
Last year I published a post called What NOT To Wear To Work where I discussed, among other things, whether or not a T-shirt could be considered appropriate office attire. Ultimately my conclusion was that while casual graphic and burn-out tees were out of the question unless you work in fashion-forward industries like fashion, music, or film, there were appropriate possibilities out there if you looked hard enough and styled them properly.
To make this type of look work you just need to keep the pieces clean and simple, and go for a thick, well-made shirt in an appropriate cut, color, and silhouette for the occasion.
In this case I went with a royal purple Zara Basics t-shirt with cap-sleeves paired with a basic black pencil skirt, round-toed pumps, and a vintage-inspired gold belt.
Tee – Zara Basics, Pencil Skirt – Zara, Pumps – Franco Sarto, Bracelets – JewelMint, Vintage, & Forever 21, Rings – Vintage, Multi-Strand Gold Necklace – Express, and Retro Gold Belt – BCBG
You can HYPE this look on Lookbook.nu, shop similar pieces on ASOS Style Finder, or click the hyperlinks above for some comparable pieces that you can buy.
And believe me, I'm not the only one who enjoys a good tee. Mixing high and low, like adding a basic shirt into a work or night out look, is an art form practiced by many.
Are you creative when it comes to building new and fun looks using your favorite tees? What do you think about wearing a T-shirt to work – ya or nay?

I just read a t-shirt with a statement about hell on it, and it got me thinking... It's Friday, late afternoon, I'm sitting at "The Fly", an airport cafe in Melbourne. I'm surrounded by men and women, from all over the world, drinking beer after beer, chatting on their phones, chatting to their friends, starring … Continue reading Will your neighbour go to hell?!?
Thoughts on Striving and Significance in the light of Billy Graham's Funeral.
A few nights ago, I had a dream. In it, I saw myself striving. Striving to make it all work. Striving to pull off ministry, life, significance, validity. In my dream I saw scene after scene of myself on a TV screen, striving, worrying, trying. You see, the other day, just hours before the death … Continue reading Thoughts on Striving and Significance in the light of Billy Graham's Funeral.
Why I believe in Stadium Evangelism like it's 1959.
In 1959, Evangelist Billy Graham came to Melbourne, Australia, and set the unbroken record for the largest crowd at Melbourne's biggest outdoor stadium, the Melbourne Cricket Ground. His event attracted over 130,000 people! Last night, I read one of my city's most read newspapers, as they reported on Billy Graham's passing, and this momentous event. … Continue reading Why I believe in Stadium Evangelism like it's 1959.
A Recipe for Revival.
I've been thinking a lot lately about "revival". It's a buzz word for Christians these days, many are talking about how the church needs another "revival", about how we are having a "revival", or about how we are on the cusp of another one. But what is revival, what is needed to have it, and … Continue reading A Recipe for Revival.
What's with the "Gold Dust?"
One of the first things people ask me, when they hear I'm a fan of the supernatural operating in and through a Christian's life, is this, "What's with the "gold dust"?" (If you're not familiar with "gold dust", or you're just interested in seeing some- you can watch this video here, where I show some … Continue reading What's with the "Gold Dust?"

CEO Clubs Int'l in Romania has several strategic partnerships with Media, offering the opportunity to all the Members to publish articles, presenting personal opinions.
Below you may read the article from Gabriel Pantelimon, General Manager of Xerox Romania
Published on Business Review, January 2014
Is it again a time for optimism and positive thinking in business?
What a great experience were the last 5 years in the Romanian business! After the monotonous growth between 2004 and 2008, starting with 2009, we have been exposed to such a big variety of business situations as we had never been before and we have learned so much!
Are the above statements looking as ones coming from a positive person, or what? From the managers and leaders fighting for their companies, their people and their own "survival" in the last years, day in, day out, with pressure from shareholders and owners increasing to irrational levels and most of the times going against the market situation and trends, restructuring and optimizing, cutting costs, reducing the people development and motivation budgets and lowering to minimum levels the marketing investments, these statements might attract at minimum a "are you serious?" type of look. The fashionable pessimists, which according to a joke are the "well informed optimists", will at best pity the person and never talk to the "Martian" again.
However, there is truth in these statements and to a high degree. And in a moment of honesty, most will agree to them. We learnt a lot and we did practice and took decisions that we never had to take before. Some of us changed and adapted strategies, teams, plans, actions and even visions on the way! Some did not adapt and maybe they changed their place or their market.
It is just that we had enough of these lessons. It has already been 5 years, longer than an MBA program and as long as a university degree term. I believe most of us already graduated and we even did our apprenticeship period! Let's go to real work now!
It is the time to look more into the business development and towards growth. Somebody said that the market conditions in the last period were the outcome of a mental state, a defensive and surviving attitude.
We are now at the beginning of another year and we just cannot afford to start the business in this safe mode. We should bring back the optimism and the investment appetite and start also giving some before harvesting. It is an attitude, yes, backed by hopes, but if as many businesses as possible do not act in that direction, we will again discuss later in the year about survival. Growth is much more fun, remember? Now it is the time for optimism and positive thinking. This time it might really work!

While writing a recommendation letter for nurse position, include all the positive traits and skills in a manner that the recommendation letter keeps concise. Take the example of the following recommendation for nurse in order to make your own.
Nurse Recommendation Letter
April 16, 2011
To Whom It May Concern:
I am pleased to recommend Ms. Anna Johnson for staff nurse position in the nursing department of ABC Hospital. I am the Registered Nurse with Edmonton Diagnostics, a nursing home in Edmonton, Alberta.
Ms. Anna Johnson has been working with my nursing home for more than three years. During her tenure I have been vastly fascinated with her talent in dealing with patients. She has the necessary qualification and information that is predictable of every nurse.
She is clever, tolerant, good listener, has a pleasant personality and principally is a person of honesty. It needs a particular mention of her compassionate nature which has been the cause why she achieved a lot of promotions throughout her stay in Edmonton Diagnostics.
I strongly recommend her as a genuinely talented young lady who is a ideal fit for the nursing job. I wish her best of Luck in future endeavors. In case of any question, please call or email me.

Sociology is a discipline focused on exploring and understanding the social and structural causes and consequences of human behavior. Sociologists study a variety of topics that are vital to interpreting the world around us, including:
Sociology is not only a fascinating discipline that helps us understand ourselves and others better, but it also develops strong analytic and critical thinking skills that are highly sought after in our increasingly diverse world. A major or minor in sociology provides an excellent foundation for both entry-level jobs and graduate study in business, law, health, social services, education, criminal justice, public service, and social and demographic research.
The Department of Sociology, Anthropology and Criminal Justice offers both a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Arts degree in sociology in four concentration areas: general sociology, community studies, criminal justice, and social services. All majors take an introductory course in sociology, as well as a two-semester sequence in research methods, a sociological theory course, and two social stratification classes. The curriculum for BS students includes additional introductory and advanced courses in math and science, while BA students complete a four-semester sequence in a modern language and additional humanities courses. Our four concentration areas also allow students an opportunity to align their coursework more closely with their career goals. Regardless of the specific degree path chosen, a sociology major provides students with the tools to understand the social causes and consequences of interpersonal and group behavior and to prepare for a variety of professional paths.
A sociology minor is an excellent choice for any student who desires to develop a nuanced understanding of human behavior and the social world. The sociology minor allows students a great degree of flexibility to select coursework that meets their personal and professional goals. All sociology minors must complete SOC 2010, Introduction to Sociology, as well as fifteen additional hours of sociology or rural sociology classes. At least three hours of 4000-level coursework must be completed, and the other twelve hours may be selected from all available classes at the 3000- or 4000-level.
For information about the sociology major or minor, please contact Jennifer Holland or visit the Clemson University sociology major page.

Powerline ethernet adapters are theoretically the perfect approach to retrofitting an existing building with wired ethernet. The premise of being able to simply plug two adapters in to the existing power outlets and instantly have a wired network covering several hundred feet has a great appeal. The Trendnet TPL-401E2K Powerline AV Adapter Kit is a product that looks to provide this functionality and at the same time promises speeds of up to 500Mbps. We take a quick look after the break.

The Disabling Society
He may as well be dead.
For the last nine years, "Chawki has suffered from a rare disorder that renders him fully cognitive but unable to move or speak. Because he cannot talk or write, he was unable to tell his family how to reach his friends."
Why not? Why hadn't anyone found a way for Chawki to communicate? And why was he in a nursing home?
There are all kinds of ways and all sorts of gadgets out there to enable someone like Chawki to express his wants and needs. Laurie Green, the Grant High alum who learned that Chawki was alive and in the nursing home, found a simple one - an alphabet poster and thumb up for yes, thumb down for no. Why hadn't anybody come up with this before?
And in a photograph accompanying the article, Chawki is up in a wheelchair looking as alive as I am and like he can, with help, live in his own place, like I do.
This is classic. This is a perfect example of how our society makes the disabled more disabled, of how everything is set up for the able-bodied and how things that make life for the disabled have to be fought for or are granted as a big favor, usually out of pity or guilt. This makes it easy to see why we hear all those stories of disabled people, usually stuck wallowing in nursing homes, want to die. Why bother living when living is made so hard? (Saying that Chawki "suffered" from his disability and having a second picture of Chawki playing baseball, as the article does, feeds right into this better-dead-than-disabled notion.)
Green and her fellow alumni are raising money to pay for therapy that - surprise, surprise - Medicare and Medi-Cal won't pay for. They also hope to get Chawki out of the nursing home. When Green told him of this ultimate goal, "his thumb shot straight up." I bet!

Hey John, I wanted to say alot of things and I wrote them down on this comment window and lost it. Boo hoo. The gist of what I wrote was this. I was at a drive through fast food and while I was waiting for my breakfast burrito, I noticed the lift on the metro bus was stuck and the driver was more concerned with his schedule as if the disabled person was at fault. The first thought that ran through my mind was the people inside the bus, being late and all, but after seeing the desparity before me, I had little empathy to the passengers and more sensibility for the man in the wheelchair, making every effort to work the lift. Your article on society with the communication being a low priority, the thought occured to me as I was reading it, that the social disease is the problem, not the disabled being the cause of anger or blame.ReplyDelete
We need as a society to think how to best help the needs of those who want desperately to be included. My only hope is that from learning and through experience, I can be more compassionate and check myself becoming impatient and worse, apathetic to the issue of getting involved.
My letter is alot shorter than before and I hope this one is able to post correctly. Love,
Daryl :{)

Hello, my lovelies!
It's been far, far too long since we last visited. This pesky thing called work swooped in and took over my life the last few months, and unfortunately, the blog fell to the wayside. Most days I didn't even have time to do my nails and would wear the same polish for 3 or 4 days (the horror!) ;)
But I think, things are easing up now and I hope to at least get once post in a week for now, and back up to 2-3 postings a week by the end of June. I think I debuted this blog last year on Memorial Day, so my one year blogaversary should be here!
And speaking of Memorial Day, please take a moment to honor those that serve, and those who gave their lives for us. 3:00 pm is the official moment of silence to honor those who didn't come home.
This was the first mani I did on the blog, for Memorial Day last year.
Where to start with the last few months? I've gained a ridiculous new number of polishes. I've made lots of new awesome friends in the polish world. We're terrible at enabling each other!
I think for now, I'm just to going to show a few new favorite things.
Anyone participate in Zoya's Earth day promo? I was a bad girl, as you can see! I love Zoya. And after updating my stash list, Zoya and OPI definitely dominate my stash. I also now own every orange Zoya, minus the Birchbox blogger trio corals (I still kick myself for not getting those!)
I also love this years texture - the sparkly/matte finish. They're Liquid Sand by OPI, Pixie Dust by Zoya, Frosted Gumdrops by JulieG, etc. I really love them. They're not super gritty, but they are sparkly, yet matte at the same time.
I got my first Illamasqua polish too! In a secret swap with a friend, I was gifted Gamma. It's a gorgeous bright neon orange. My friend Dana loves Illamasqua so I was happy to finally have one. The formula on this was a bit streaky but it leveled out after the second coat. Shown here with topcoat.
And thanks to my friend Rachael (who just opened up her blog, Polish for Reals – go check her out and tell her I sent you! I did her graphics-hee!) got me hooked on Dior. I'm way too cheap to pay so much for a polish ($24! yikes!) but I found this baby brand new for $15 (still exceedingly rare I spend that much on one polish!). This is Dior Bikini and oh my, was it perfection putting it on. Talk about practically applying itself! I'm now hungering for a couple more, which might be my reward to myself when this project at work is done. I think I deserve it after all these hard months of work.
Dusty hunting has yielded up some old black label OPIs, and DS Treasure (a gorgeous orange, sparkly sheer polish! - 'cause I don't have enough of those!)
I picked up my first Nerd Lacquers-all Dr. Who inspired (I love Dr. Who!). She was back in business for a while but seems to have disappeared again. :( Shown here are Home of the Untempered Schism, Regeneration (my favorite, of course!) and Exterminate.
Essie's put out their summer collection with some bright, pretty colors. Some of my favorite indies have new polishes and lines out. Literary Lacquers has a stunning orange holo I want, and in early June will be launching her Anne of Green Gables line! Tipsy Turvy Nails has a Buffy the Vampire Slayer line coming out soon that I can't wait for, and Amy's NailBoutique has a ton of gorgeous new holos out, and some fabulous glitters on the way. Different Dimension has some gorgeous new colors like Black Dahlia out. So much new polish goodness to be had!
Lots if indie have their summer lines out or about to come out so be sure to watch their page and blogs for fun new polishes. I hope to be back within the week!

Restricted areas at airports are often hard to monitor. Even though other non-cooperative surveillance technologies such as surface movement radars may be able to detect non-cooperative vehicles or aircraft entering a restricted area, they may not be able to detect individual human bodies.
For both safety and security purposes ASW sensors can be set up temporarily, or permanently, to protect an area within the airport. Sometimes, ongoing construction may cause a section of the taxiway or runway to be closed. In these situations the technology can be placed to ensure monitoring of these restricted areas or taxiways.
This information can be sent either to ATC or the airport security department. In this configuration, ASW Technology uses highly moveable GroundPlug anchoring that facilitates rapid positional changes with regard to temporary works on a runway or taxiway.

Kansas recently joined Help Me Grow, a national program that fosters collaboration among child-serving organizations, and the state designated HACC as the lead agency for Ellis County's early intervention services.
"Help Me Grow will ensure that all children and families in our community have access to the services they need to thrive," says Beth Fisher, R.N. of HACC.
HACC's role will be to make sure that early-childhood developmental screenings and referrals to needed services are guaranteed to all at-risk children in Ellis County.
Last year, HACC and the Hays Interagency Coordinating Council (HICC) provided free screening to 219 children.
Help Me Grow is still new here, and HACC has been bringing together agencies, with the goal of improving service coordination.
Currently, HACC has brought a number of key agencies under the Help Me Grow umbrella, including HICC, the Pediatrics and Family Medicine offices of Hays Medical Center, the Ellis County Health Department, High Plains Mental Health Center, Clinical Associates P.A. and the United Way of Ellis County.
HACC is reaching out to more providers, as we work towards creating a centralized access point, and planning for family and community outreach and data collection and analysis.
According to the Help Me Grow National Center, this collaborative model is designed to help states and communities maximize resources, identify vulnerable children and empower families to support their children's healthy development.
Twenty-eight states are now part of the Help Me Grow system.

iPad 2017 review: The ideal tablet - if you need an upgrade
Apple pretty much perfected the tablet way back in 2013 when it released the iPad Air. It introduced a thinner, lighter design, more compact body and fingerprint sensor into Apple's tablet. At the time we called it Apple's finest tablet.
Since then, not much has changed. The iPad Pro introduced in 2015 created a new line for professional users, but the consumer-grade device hasn't been updated in two and a half years. That's testament to Apple getting it right early on, but it's also a problem. iPad sales have fallen for several years now and users haven't upgraded as often as they have with iPhones.
Lots of people are still using the iPad 2 and 3, which can't run iOS 10, Apple's latest operating system. And the next version of iOS likely to drop support for 32-bit apps, making the iPad 4 obsolete. This means new features and security updates aren't making it to a lot of iPad users.
Step forward Apple's new iPad. Announced three weeks ago without a lot of fanfare, it also has little in the way of new features. Instead, it is being pitched as the perfect upgrade for people using iPads that are four, five or six years old.
One key feature is set to help in that regard - its price. At £339, the new iPad is £40 cheaper than its predecessor, which Apple hopes will entice more people into upgrading.
What's changed
As mentioned, there's not a lot new here for someone who already owns one of the more recent iPads, but there are slight changes to the screen - the most important thing with an iPad - and the processor.
The 9.7-inch screen is 25 per cent brighter (500 nits against the Air 2's 400), although I can't say I noticed the difference too much. A few people have quibbled that the screen isn't laminated or anti-reflective, as the Air 2 was, but you're not going to lose sleep over it.
It's also a little thicker than the Air 2, at 7.5mm to the 6.1mm of its waif-like predecessor. This suggests a little bit of cost-cutting on Apple's side to get the price down, but it's a marginal difference. That slightly thicker chassis is the same as the original iPad Air, which is something to bear in mind if you're looking for a case other than Apple's snap-on cover.
The other difference is Apple's A9 chip. This gives it a performance upgrade on the A8 in the iPad Air 2, and means that it'll probably have iOS software updates for another year longer. Considering people tend to hold onto their iPads for a few years, this is an important difference.
It's noticeably zippy, and with the iPad now supporting more advanced features like split screening - which requires two apps to run at once - is a worthwhile update.
What's not changed
The 8-megapixel camera and 1.2-megapixel selfie camera haven't changed, which is fine, because the only thing an iPad camera should be used for is video calls.
Neither has the 10-hour battery life that Apple claims, and which the new iPad lives up to perfectly well. As with the last two iPads, its got the Touch ID fingerprint sensor, which not only unlocks it but is also being used more and more for payments.
The new iPad has also missed out on some of the features of the iPad Pro.
I can do without the smart connector for accessories and support for the Apple Pencil, but it would have been nice if it had carried over the four speakers instead of sticking with two, especially given how many people use the iPad as a Netflix machine.
Should you buy the new iPad? It should be fairly easy to figure out. If your iPad is on its last legs or you're looking at buying your first one, there's never been a better time. This one's cheaper, faster and future-proofed.
But if you're still happy with your iPad, there's not much here that should convince you to upgrade. As I said at the start, the iPad was perfected a while ago, and if you only use it to watch videos and browse the web, you don't need an upgrade unless your current one is running out of speed.
The last question is whether you should pick this or the iPad Pro, which is another £180 more expensive. My instinct is that unless you're a creative type that needs the Pro's powerful specs and accessory support, or want a full laptop replacement, the new iPad represents better value, and is perfectly capable of running productivity apps like Microsoft Excel without a problem.
The new iPad is everything that a tablet needs - a great screen, a long battery life and plenty of power - and at £339 the price cut is the most noticeable thing. Not much has changed, but not much needed to.

i would also like to have the option of starting different hard drives. either:
the current windows 7 OS on drive C;
or the new Windows 10 on drive D.
"new Windows 10 on drive D"
Make sure you have C drive disconnected when you install.
After making sure both drives worked perfectly on their own, cable both up & then boot the comp.
Set the bios to boot from the drive you prefer to be default.
Toggle F8 during boot, if you want to select the non default drive.
message edited by Johnw
Please note that all Windows OS' consider the drive they are on is C drive so that when in W10, it will be on C drive and when you are in W7 that will be C drive. To limit confusion, name both drives with a name and be consistent over both systems. You can name one drive something like 'Win10 System' and the other 'Win7 System' and another drive might be 'Storage Drive'.
The reason you disconnect one drive before installing the other OS is that they each have their own boot partition separate from the other and the system can boot with either drive installed by itself.
Another option (especially if both drives are on the same physical drive) is to partition the drives and note carefully the reported partition sizes so you will not be confused during the install, pop in the install disk, select the Custom install options and select the dual boot option and carefully select the correct drive by size to install on. Note that there is the possibility that you might install to the wrong partition and overwrite either Windows 7 or your storage drive is it is separate, so it is important to back up all personal data before you start. Note that I have not done this with Windows 10 but the option should be there as it has been previously but you might have to look carefully to find it. You can also Google 'Windows 10 dual boot install' and see what options you see as far as instructions. This should boot with Windows asking you which system you want to boot to.
The separate drive with F8 boot options is probably a safer install though.
You have to be a little bit crazy to keep you from going insane.
Not being familiar with windows 10 yet... I'm wondering if one could simply add win-7 to a windows 10 boot manager; or visa-versa. Both versions of windows of course being on separate drives.
One certainly could use this approach with all previous versions NT (NT through to windows 7).
With each OS already installed on its own drive, once one has added whichever Windows OS is on a second hard drive to the "first" hard drive's boot-manager, might not the dual boot option/selection be viable without the F8 routine?
Also at any time either drive could be used as a sole boot device too; as it's mbr will not have been touched in any way.
And of course one might consider something like the Easus utilty?
And this discussion might be of interest....

Nearly doubling in size every year, the Brush Run 101 continues to grow. The Wolfhead Sportsman's Club could never begin to sponsor a race of this magnitude by itself. Having volunteers come from all over the country in addition to the locals, the 1972 race had over 125 volunteers working throughout the race course.
Co-race directors, Jim Conway and Gary Cyrus, gave the okay for the green flag to drop early Saturday morning. Of the 183 machines that took the starting line, only 61 would finish the race. The total purse was slightly over $5,000 with the prizes given by Air Tight Sealer of El Paso, Texas and four certificates worth $100 donated by the Jeep Distributor of Minnesota. Fred Holms of Crandon won the sportsmanship award.

Mastering MVVM With Swift
Protocol Oriented Programming and Dependency Injection
If we want to test the
AddLocationViewViewModel class, we need the ability to stub the responses of the geocoding requests we make to Apple's location services. Only then can we write fast and reliable unit tests. Being in control of your environment is essential if your goal is creating a robust test suite.
Not only do we want to be in control of the response we receive from the geocoding requests, we don't want the test suite to rely on a service we don't control. It can make the test suite slow and unreliable.
But how do we stub the responses of the geocoding requests we make? The Core Location framework is a system framework. We cannot mock the
CLGeocoder class. The solution is simple, but it requires a bit of work.
A Plan of Action
The solution involves three steps:
First, we need to create a service that's in charge of performing the geocoding requests. That service needs to be injected into the view model. The view model shouldn't be in charge of instantiating the service.
Second, the service we inject into the view model conforms to a protocol we define. The protocol is nothing more than a definition of an interface that allows the view model to initiate a geocoding request. It initiates the geocoding request, it doesn't perform the geocoding request.
Third, the service conforms to the protocol and we inject an instance of the service into the view model.
Not only does this solution decouple the view model from the Core Location framework, the view model won't even know which service it's using, that is, as long as the service conforms to the protocol we define.
Don't worry if this sounds confusing. Let's start by creating the protocol for the service. We can draw inspiration from the current implementation of the
AddLocationViewViewModel class. It shows us what the protocol should look like.
Defining the Protocol
Create a new file in the Protocols group and name it LocationService.swift.
The protocol's definition will be short. We only define the interface we need to extract the
CLGeocoder class from the view model.
protocol LocationService {
We first define a type alias,
LocationServiceCompletionHandler. This is primarily for convenience.
typealias LocationServiceCompletionHandler = ([Location], Error?) -> Void
More important is the definition of the method that performs the geocoding request,
geocode(addressString:completionHandler:). It accepts an address string and a completion handler. Because the geocoding request is performed asynchronously, we mark the completion handler as escaping. The completion handler is of type
func geocode(addressString: String?, completionHandler: @escaping LocationServiceCompletionHandler)
Adopting the Protocol
With the
LocationService protocol in place, it's time to create a class that adopts the
LocationService protocol. Create a new group, Services, and create a class named Geocoder. You can name it whatever you like.
Because we're going to use the
CLGeocoder class to perform the geocoding requests, we need to import the Core Location framework.
import CoreLocation
We define the
Geocoder class. The class should conform to the
LocationService protocol we defined earlier.
import CoreLocation
class Geocoder: LocationService {
Geocoder class has one private, lazy, variable property,
geocoder, of type
import CoreLocation
class Geocoder: LocationService {
// MARK: - Properties
private lazy var geocoder = CLGeocoder()
The only thing left to do is implement the method of the
LocationService protocol. This isn't difficult since most of the implementation can be found in the current implementation of the
AddLocationViewViewModel class.
// MARK: - Location Service Protocol
func geocode(addressString: String?, completionHandler: @escaping LocationService.LocationServiceCompletionHandler) {
guard let addressString = addressString else {
completionHandler([], nil)
// Geocode Address String
geocoder.geocodeAddressString(addressString) { (placemarks, error) in
if let error = error {
completionHandler([], error)
print("Unable to Forward Geocode Address (\(error))")
} else if let _placemarks = placemarks {
// Update Locations
let locations = _placemarks.flatMap({ (placemark) -> Location? in
guard let name = placemark.name else { return nil }
guard let location = placemark.location else { return nil }
return Location(name: name, latitude: location.coordinate.latitude, longitude: location.coordinate.longitude)
completionHandler(locations, nil)
This should look familiar. The only difference is that we pass the array of
Location instances to the completion handler of the method along with any errors that pop up.
We now have the ingredients we need to refactor the
AddLocationViewController and
AddLocationViewViewModel classes. Let's start with the
AddLocationViewViewModel class.
Refactoring the Add Location View View Model
Open AddLocationViewViewModel.swift and replace the
geocoder property with a constant property,
locationService, of type
private let locationService: LocationService
This simple change means that the
AddLocationViewViewModel class no longer knows how the application performs the geocoding requests. It could be the Core Location framework, but it might as well be some other library. This will come in handy later. It also means we can remove the import statement for the Core Location framework.
import RxSwift
import RxCocoa
import Foundation
class AddLocationViewViewModel {
We inject a location service into the view model using initializer injection. We pass a second argument to the initializer of the
AddLocationViewViewModel class. The only requirement for the argument is that it conforms to the
LocationService protocol. We set the
locationService property in the initializer.
// MARK: - Initialization
init(query: Driver<String>, locationService: LocationService) {
// Set Properties
self.locationService = locationService
.drive(onNext: { [weak self] (addressString) in
self?.geocode(addressString: addressString)
.disposed(by: disposeBag)
We also need to update the
geocode(addressString:) method of the
AddLocationViewViewModel class. Because most of the heavy lifting is done by the location service, the implementation is shorter and simpler.
private func geocode(addressString: String?) {
guard let addressString = addressString, addressString.count > 2 else {
// Geocode Address String
locationService.geocode(addressString: addressString) { [weak self] (locations, error) in
if let error = error {
print("Unable to Forward Geocode Address (\(error))")
Refactoring the Add Location View Controller
The change we need to make in the
AddLocationViewController class is small. Open AddLocationViewController.swift and navigate to the
viewDidLoad() method. We only need to update the line on which we initialize the view model.
// Initialize View Model
viewModel = AddLocationViewViewModel(query: searchBar.rx.text.orEmpty.asDriver(), locationService: Geocoder())
That's it. Build and run the application to make sure we didn't break anything. The
AddLocationViewViewModel class is now ready to be tested.
