I am very excited about Young Living's August promotion. Since these oils I personally use all of the time, I am delighted to get them for free this month! When we place an order of 175 pv during the month of August, 2012, Young Living will throw in a complimentary 15 ml bottle of lemon, orange, grapefruit and tangerine essential oils. Wow!
Generally speaking, the citrus oils are HAPPY OILS. They are also usually well tolerated by those who do not like the scent of essential oils. My husband, for example, used to complain every time he caught a whiff of almost any essential oil. Citrus oils were the exception. He didn't say a word, and neither did I!
Another nifty thing about citrus oils are are some of the beneficial molecules they contain:
Limonene has been proven to prevent certain kinds of cancers. Grapefruit and tangerine are 95% limonene, orange and lemon have 91% and 65% limonene respectively.
Citral is a molecule found in some essential oils that has been discovered to increase metabolism reduce accumulation of fat by decreasing the volume of fat cells.
Off the top of my head, here are a few of my favorite ways to use these oils:
- Removes adhesive and sticker residue
- When eating out, add a few drops to your water to neutralize chlorine & other nasties
- Removes black scuff marks from hardwood floors
- Add to water when cleaning fresh berries to get rid of any bacteria or tiny bugs
- Add to any cleaning solution to increase the antiseptic action
- Add a few drops to sparkling water for a delicious zero calorie refresher
- OR add 4 – 6 drops to a 1 qt. bottle of drinking water. Re-purpose those empty NingXia Red bottles!
- Removes adhesives
- Twice a week add a drop of orange oil to a bit of baking soda, scoop it up with your toothbrush and brush away. The oil whitens and the baking soda is a mild abrasive. The rest of the week use your favorite Dentarome Toothpaste.
- Add to hot tea or hot chocolate.
- I grab this oil when I need a mood boost in the presence of those who complain about fragrances.
- Diffuse with lavender for a soothing atmosphere
- Add a couple of drops to NingXia Red
- Add to freshly juiced veggies to "brighten" the flavor of the juice.
- Toss a few drops into a bowl of washed, stemmed seedless grapes. YUM!
The essential oils I recommend are Young Living Essential Oils, available through the link on my website. The purity and quality are for internal consumption and have their therapeutic-qualities left intact.
What are your favorite ways to use these oils?

Today, when I look back at the years gone by...
Precious moments of my life I lost, I try to think.."why ?"
Planning for the future of my family,I lived my life...
Playing a mother to my kids and a loving wife..
My children meant the world to me..
"Special Someone", I wanted them to be..
My husband ,always happy, I wished to see..
Very Successfull , I wanted him to be.
Family to me mattered the most..
On their achivement , I wanted to boast.
Our future be happy and secure- -my only intention,
In this process, to myself I paid no attention.
My health, I neglected a lot,
My appearance, I totally forgot.
Slogging my life out ,all the money I saved..
To a happy future, the path I paved.
Today I feel I have achieved a lot..
But I also can see what all I lost .
Precious moments of my life ,
Where, I could be" Just Me", not a mother or wife..
"Live for today" as everyone says..
"Really possible?" , I wonder in every which way..
At times I feel " I too should have tried..
But would it be possible, and could I ?

What're good websites to watch free movies?
Sent from my iPhone 4 using iCafe app
I like veetle.com there's prob 20 different ppl broadcasting movies so you kind of "get whatcha get" but normally some good movies are being shown.
Well I haven't personally checked it out myself but Crackle is an iPad app that streams free movies albeit with commercials.
I think you should go for moviesorb.com, this one is a good site, It always used to give me the perfect quality.
It's a pretty good app.
Try "mediamp4.com"
Wtf, dude. That site requires flash player, WE ALL KNOW you can't view flash movies on an iDevice.
Tried Crackle and so far it's working well. Free too.
I usually get my movies from PirateBay. If you know which torrents to avoid, it's an awesome website to download free movies.
imp4movies.com , downloadfreemp4movies.blogspot.com/ , freeAndroidmovies.com/
Quick, free registration and all movies (under the Forums tab, then click on movies) can be played on iPhones.
Just tried it. A Seinfeld episode took so long to load I gave up on it. Are you trying to tease us?
Hmm after looking through the help thread on the forum, it seems as though they've been having trouble in the last few days with their external uploader site. I'll keep checking back and advise when things are up and running again. Sorry guys!
Alright, I said I'd advise when things are up and running and forgot! I checked tonight and they're back in action. I specifically checked Seinfeld for you Honda and it works! It does take a couple minutes (literally, I timed it - 2 minutes) to load but it's good to go after that.
Thanks, I'll check it out.
it works great on the iPhone ..I will send the first link to my kid he will be excited
OK, I tried some Seinfelds and I keep getting a page that says I need the flash plugin. We ALL know that's not gonna happen, so how do I watch a TV episode?
Don't make me come look for you!
Nowhere in the OP's question did they say they wanted to watch movies on their device. That was a little harsh Honda.
Also, don't know how this thread fits with forum guidelines, but talk of pirate bay etc may be a little close to the bone?
I only tried the pilot on my iPhone and it worked fine. Here's what I figure to be the problem: 99% of the movies and TV shows on there are run with the external uploader "NextGenVidz". Seinfeld, for some reason, is run with "PutLocker" which is not nearly as good. Try a movie or another TV show. You may just have to give up on Seinfeld.

If You Can Name the Other Woman in the New ARTHUR Poster, You Win +15 Hipster Points
By Dustin Rowles | Trade News | February 22, 2011 | Comments ()
Ask yourself this? Why would the main love interest in Arthur be missing from previous iterations of the movie poster and all but absent from the trailer? Why? Because you might get the idea that it's a decent movie. Because the main love interest is a brilliant actress and screenwriter in her own right, largely associated with mumblecore, who A.O. Scott suggested might be "the definitive screen actress of her generation." Why is "the definitive screen actress of her generation" missing from most of the promotional materials for Arthur?
You know how to kill interest in studio comedy for most Americans? Mention mumblecore.
Don't worry, though. I very much doubt she'll make Arthur any better.

New Delhi - The problem with plastic is that it is non-biodegradable and its disposal is a major ecological hazard. Recycling provides a partial solution. Earth Soul India, a company specialising in bio-plastics, is planning to manufacture composter machines that can convert waste into energy.
"Composters are an economically viable solution for the problem of plastic disposal as the machines can convert the waste into usable diesel, gas and other byproducts," Perses Billimoria, founder and chief executive of Earth Soul India, told IANS here.
Another variant of the composter can also be used to convert daily organic items like vegetable peels, unused food items and agricultural waste into compost matter. The compost then can be used as fertiliser which reduces the carbon footprint as well as saves the soil from harmful chemical additives.
"In the initial stage, we plan to start an assembly unit by importing critical parts of the machine and then fabricating the rest. We may go into full-fledged production by the end of next year," Billimoria said.
The company, which manufactures bio-degradable plastic bags, said it is scouting for a location for the composter plant that would come up at an initial cost of around Rs.10 crore.
Billimoria said townships can be one of the main beneficiaries of using composters to convert waste into usable material.
"Big cities like New Delhi and Mumbai generate nearly 8,000 tonnes of solid waste per day. This massive environmental issue can be solved by community-focused initiatives, where composters are used to convert local waste into composte or fuel," said Billimoria.
"We are in touch with major companies which have townships like Tata Chemicals, ACC cement and even education institute Bits Pilani. Even industries like fertiliser can benefit out of this." Billimoria is also planning to import machines that convert kitchen waste into water.
"The machine will convert the organic kitchen waste into water. But the water is not going to be potable, it can only be used for other purposes like cleaning," he said.

The No-Blame Solution
By Bonnie Harris
Blaming something or someone else when we are angry, criticized, or thwarted in any way is as common among humans as laughing or crying. We naturally and automatically defend ourselves when we feel attacked, but each one's perception of what amounts to an attack is up to individual interpretation. Unfortunately many parents feel under attack from even their smallest child. So we blame. Blaming another for what is my problem, my responsibility, is clearly learned. To take responsibility for ourselves—our own behavior and emotions—is hard. We want others to suffer when we suffer. It's called retaliation. We learn to retaliate when we are blamed—often at very young ages.
Whenever we feel blamed, we get defensive. So does your child. "What did you do now?" "Why are you always doing that?" "I can't leave you alone for a second!" "How dare you?" "How many times do I have to tell you…?" Just a tone of voice can send blame showering over a child filling him with tension and resistance. He has no option but to get defensive. "I didn't do it!"
We live under a fantasy that a child who is blamed and yelled at is going to learn to take responsibility for her actions, own up to everything, and never do it again for fear of displeasing us. That's not how it works. When more spirited children feel blamed, their focus turns inward with self-protection, and they defend themselves against the blame to keep from "getting in trouble". They act out and learn how to get sneaky and shirk responsibility.
Children with a more adaptable temperament take blame personally, plummet into guilt, learn that "everything" is their fault, and lose self-esteem. These children look like the good girls and boys because they are able to shift their behavior to keep out of trouble—but at the cost of self-worth and confidence. These children are the reason we keep using blame and punishment because it looks like it works. But once self-esteem drops, trouble starts.
Many of these children become parents. Those who are used to blame continue to blame. It's hard not to. Teaching children to be well disciplined, respectful, and responsible can be done far better without blame. Once you understand the principle of blame and how it plays out, you will never want to blame again. Blame provokes defensive behavior. Running away, laughing, hitting, pushing, lying, yelling, "you're not the boss of me", "you can't make me", "you're so mean"—are all defensive actions to "get back" for getting blamed. Some children become overly concerned about how you feel. "Are you happy, Mommy?" means the child has learned to take responsibility for your feelings and likely feels guilty if you are upset. Your happiness means he can relax.
A mother of two young daughters has been trying to convince her girls that they are not responsible for her feelings. The six year old said, "But when you scream at me for not turning off the television, I know you wouldn't scream if I turned it off, so that means I'm responsible for your feelings." Pretty astute for a six year old!
When we blame in anger, we indeed teach our children that they are responsible for our feelings and our behavior.
"You make me so mad. Why do I have to yell 10 times before you listen?
"It makes mommy happy when you do that."
We don't pay attention to the messages we send our children with blame.
"You're the bad one, I don't approve of you, My love is conditional on your behavior, You don't have a right to your own feelings and desires, You have to make other people happy with your behavior."
When we refrain from blame, even when one child has hurt another badly, we can put our attention on the hurt and allow the hurter to take in the situation he has caused. When he is blamed, he cannot because all he can focus on is getting out of trouble or blaming the other for starting it. When he is not blamed he actually experiences the consequences of his behavior. You can then offer him ways to make amends. "Do you want to get the icepack to hold on your brother's arm?" Later you can talk about his anger and how to express it differently.
Problem solving and conflict resolution promotes true accountability. Blame and punishment prevents it. When children know they are not going to get in trouble, the fear of trouble no longer drives them to defensive behaviors.

UCSD is a sunny campus, and they're taking advantage of it. As a way to capture more renewable energy, they've planted Solar Trees on the roofs of www.massing.de two parking garages. The trees shade vehicles and cost viagra soak up sun.
I am starting to get frustrated that most parking lots and structures don't already have these – how absolutely perfect are they? Everyone wants to park in the shade or in a sheltered spot, and businesses can always use the extra energy.
Anyway, the trees also provide outlets so that students and faculty with plug-in hybrids and EVs can utilize the energy collected, which is a serious incentive for people who are considering buying hybrids…free energy? Yes, please.
The best part for UCSD is that the webstuff.nl trees were covered by three local companies, so the university is billed monthly for the electricity received, but didn't have to provide any initial investment.
The solar trees are intended to be functional as well as look cool, with "trunks" and "branches." This kind of biomimicry is beginning to grow, with designers working to canada generic cialis blend solar panels into environments in a more natural-ish way.
Each tree can generate more than 17,000 hours of energy annually. This kind of green initiative could be great for a whole lot of other universities. Hopefully they get the green bug and start "planting."

This is precisely why you don't see them everywhere at State universities. It's not cheap and the project design has to be approved through DSA (FYI - Division of the State Architect). This is not the same as when a individual goes to the recommended site bestellen viagra online city and asks for a building permit. DSA rejects stuff all the time, so to get something like this rolling requires an architect, engineer and levitra delivered overnight contractor who are familiar with the workings of DSA. In the end it's very costly and few state colleges can afford it (especially with the expiration of many the rebates that were being offered). The most likely successful scenario would include a power-purchase agreement, but that involves more than one investing party, a bank and sometimes even the builder gets a slice of levitra tablet the pie. Maybe your expectations for this type of green building should be directed towards private colleges with big endowments?

how soon can we talk my local big boxes into these things???
As soon as they can pay for it. With the recession and dropping retail sales it's unlikely they will find the capital to start such project. CVS and Kohls are two good examples of companies trying just what you suggested, but both programs have stalled to some degree due to cost and viagra online drugstore more importantly due to the expiration of state incentive programs. For example, Kohls is only testing the market with 22 stores getting solar panels on their roofs with an eventual goal of 40. With the slow market don't be surprised if they don't even get close to webstuff.nl 22. Also don't forget sometimes the stores don't own the www.slic.de parking lot or the property, so who precisely do you expect to foot the bill? The property owners will NEVER pay for this kind of stuff out of pocket, let alone the additional design issues of canadian drugs levitra seismic resistance for those panels ending up in California parking lots. Essentially it would have to be designed for the site from day one. Only government facilities are going to try this type of stuff on www.smartersecurity.com a large scale.

Is concealer a must?
Beautiful with brains says: for me, yes. I have very bad dark circles, which are genetic, so I need a concealer to hide them. But if you're blessed with flawless skin, then no, a concealer is not really necessary.
Same as you – concealer is the most versatile product, and apart from hiding dark circles, it can also give you a flawless look in just a few minutes, without using any other makeup, as it brightens and contours as well
Eli´s last blog post ..Catrice Colour Infusion Lip Stain
Same as you: I have really bad dark circles and without concealer I look tired and not-so-healthy. Unfortunately, the one I'm using now (Benefit Erase Paste) is too greasy and with summer hot weather it smudges in a minute.
La Bisbetica´s last blog post ..Recensione: Bottega Verde Crema Giorno Pelle Mista Normalizzante Opacante
I think I have really bad undereye circles too but it's because I lack orbital bone and it makes me have under eye bags :[. I don't use concealer because I rarely break out and if I do, it's a tiny dot or so. I just don't want to tug on my skin every day when I'm not in any important profession or I'm not going on television haha. I will use concealer for fun nights out or when I occasionally feel like it. :]
I'm not blessed with flawless skin and I do suffer from dark under eye circles but I do get away sometimes without concealing because I'm too lazy! hehehe I like using foundation as concealer though, as the texture isn't as dry as I suffer from really dry skin!
Nikki´s last blog post ..AMW Reviews: MAC Mineralized Blush in Fresh Honey
I agree that it really depends on a person. I personally don't use concealer or foundation on a daily basis

Online Bingo Rules and Etiquettes (Part 2)
I am sure that you must have relished my previous blog as it was related to health benefits. Let's continue with the discussion….
According to various surveys, it is revealed that many bingo players have moved to portable, handheld bingo computers or electronic devices that allow them to play multiple cards at the same time without any extra effort. While playing online, the bingo cards are randomly selected for the players. Most of the online games gives the players 3 or 4 cards. Other games let the players take more. Every online bingo game has a caller or a display board for the bingo numbers. The game pattern is also displayed here. Some online games automatically mark the numbers on the cards to give them extra support.
In the online bingo games, the players buy bingo cards with numbers on them in a 5 x 5 grid corresponding to the five letters in the word B-I-N-G-O. Numbers such as B-2 or 0-68 are then drawn at random (90 is followed in the UK) until one player completes a ' Bingo ' pattern on one of their cards and take home the prizes. A Bingo Card contains 24 numbered spaces and one free or blank space, with which the BINGO is played. The numbers are allocated at random on each card and are arranged in five columns of five numbers each by five rows. The numbers in the B column are between 1 and 15, in the I column between 16 and 30, in the N column between 31 and 45, in the G column between 46 and 60, and in the O column between 61 and 75.
In the end, everybody must be nice and friendly with the other bingo players because anyone might get some tips once they've gotten to know him or her and then they may even give out some of their own tips. Therefore, pull your socks and have a great time by playing online bingo games.

John McAfee's hopes of fighting deportation back to Belize to face questions about the murder of a neighbor faded on Thursday after Guatemala denied a request by the U.S. software pioneer for asylum.
McAfee's lawyer vowed to block Guatemalan efforts to remove the entrepreneur and said the 67-year-old had suffered two mild heart attacks early on Thursday. McAfee was not taken to a hospital and posted on his blog during the morning hours.
"I don't think a heart attack prevents one from using one's blog," said the lawyer, Telesforo Guerra.
The Belizean government continues to insist that John McAfee is not a prime suspect in the murder of Gregory Faull; however, he is still wanted for questioning. An international arrest warrant has not been issued for John McAfee at this time, though he is likely to be turned over to law enforcement officials in Belize if he is deported.

International Handbook of Migration, Minorities and Education

moreMigrants and minorities are always at risk of being caught in essentialized cultural definitions and being denied the right to express their cultural preferences because they are perceived as threats to social cohesion. Migrants and minorities respond to these difficulties in multiple ways - as active agents in the pedagogical, political, social, and scientific processes that position them in this or that cultural sphere. On the one hand, they reject ascribed cultural attributes while striving towards integration in a variety of social spheres, e.g. school and workplace, in order to achieve social mobility. On the other hand, they articulate demands for cultural self-determination. This discursive duality is met with suspicion by the majority culture. For societies with high levels of migration or with substantial minority cultures, questions related to the meaning of cultural heterogeneity and the social and cultural limits of learning and communication (e.g. migration education or critical multiculturalism) are very important.
It is precisely here where the chances for new beginnings and new trials become of great importance for educational theorizing, which urgently needs to find answers to current questions about individual freedom, community/cultural affiliations, and social and democratic cohesion. Answers to these questions must account for both 'political' and 'learning' perspectives at the macro, mezzo, and micro contextual levels. The contributions of this edited volume enhance the knowledge in the field of migrant/minority education, with a special emphasis on the meaning of culture and social learning for educational processes. less

BOSTON, Mass. – For the first time in history, the UMass Lowell River Hawks win the Hockey East Championship. Saturday night, Derek Arnold tallied a wrap-around goal on Sean Maguire, giving the River Hawks a 1-0 win over Boston University. The Terriers' loss marks Jack Parker's final game as head coach at Boston University. UMass Lowell will advance to the NCAA National Tournament.
Much like Friday night's semifinal game between UMass Lowell and Providence College, Saturday night's game was a duel of freshman goaltenders.
Boston University started freshman goaltender, Maguire. The Powell River, BC native was riding a five-game win streak heading into the Hockey East Championship game. Over those five games, he posted a 1.60 goals against average and a .950 save percentage with two shutouts. Of course had no choice in starting the freshman net-minder with Matt O'Connor out due to injury and their third string goalie, Anthony Moccia hasn't played all season. However, he would've been the choice, if there was an option. Although Maguire ended up with the loss, the goaltender played well enough to win. He surrendered only a single goal on 29 shots from UMass Lowell.
Norm Bazin decided to switch from Doug Carr to Hellebuyck around Valentines Day this season. Since coming into the game as a starter, he has gone 12-1-0 with three shutouts and posting a 1.31 GAA and a .952 save percentage. Saturday night, the goaltender stopped all 36 shots the Terriers fired at him and earning only the fourth shutout in Hockey East Finals history. The last time there was a shutout in finals was back in 2009, Boston University beat UMass Lowell, 1-0. During the tournament, Hellebuyck posted a 4-0 record with a 0.99 GAA and a .966 save percentage, including Saturday night's shutout. Hellebuyck capped off one of the best Hockey East seasons, if not the best, for UMass Lowell goaltender in history.
Hellebuyck was selected to the All-Tournament Team, as well as awarded the tournament's Most Valuable Player. Additionally, Chad Ruhwedel, Matt Grzelcyk, Scott Wilson, Danny O'Regan and Evan Rodrigues were all named to this year's team.
In front of a crowd of 13,738, Coach Jack Parker of Boston University coached his final game, after 40-years of coaching. His players would've like to extend his career with a win, but were unable to top UMass Lowell.
UMass Lowell will be heading to Manchester, N.H. next weekend for the first round regional game of the NCAA Tournament. Sunday night, the River Hawks will find out who they will battle against to fight their way to the Frozen Four and a National Title.

The New York Times reports that an improvised explosive device detonated early this morning, damaging an armed forces recruiting station. No one was hurt in the blast.
The New York City police issued a statement at 7:33 a.m. describing the source of the explosion as an "improvised explosive device" and putting the time of the blast at 3:43 a.m .... The authorities are looking into a possible connection to two earlier bombings at foreign consulates in Manhattan, in 2005 and 2007.
The Department of Homeland Security is investigating the crime and whether it's linked to terrorism.
The bombing does follow the same modus operandi of two previous bombings in New York City in 2005 and 2007. In the 2005 blasts, two homemade bombs were tossed at the British consulate at 3:55 a.m. Two years later, two more homemade bombs were thrown at the Mexican consulate, this time at 3:40 a.m.
In both incidents ABC.com reports that surveillance video caught the suspected assailant, a man leaving the scene on a bicycle. In today's attack, video caught a man wearing a hooded gray sweatshirt riding a bicycle away from the scene of the explosion.
The Times said the police have acknowledged the similarities across all three incidents.

Thursday, Feb. 23The NFL Network provides a preview on three Spartans who will be participating in the upcoming NFL Combine.
NFL Network Combine Preview
40-yard dashThe 40-yard dash is the marquee event at the combine. It's kind of like the 100-meters at the Olympics: It's all about speed, explosion and watching skilled athletes run great times. These athletes are timed at 10, 20 and 40-yard intervals. What the scouts are looking for is an explosion from a static start.
Bench pressThe bench press is a test of strength -- 225 pounds, as many reps as the athlete can get. What the NFL scouts are also looking for is endurance. Anybody can do a max one time, but what the bench press tells the pro scouts is how often the athlete frequented his college weight room for the last 3-5 years.
Vertical jumpThe vertical jump is all about lower-body explosion and power. The athlete stands flat-footed and they measure his reach. It is important to accurately measure the reach, because the differential between the reach and the flag the athlete touches is his vertical jump measurement.
Broad jumpThe broad jump is like being in gym class back in junior high school. Basically, it is testing an athlete's lower-body explosion and lower-body strength. The athlete starts out with a stance balanced and then he explodes out as far as he can. It tests explosion and balance, because he has to land without moving.
3 cone drillThe 3 cone drill tests an athlete's ability to change directions at a high speed. Three cones in an L-shape. He starts from the starting line, goes 5 yards to the first cone and back. Then, he turns, runs around the second cone, runs a weave around the third cone, which is the high point of the L, changes directions, comes back around that second cone and finishes.
Shuttle runThe short shuttle is the first of the cone drills. It is known as the 5-10-5. What it tests is the athlete's lateral quickness and explosion in short areas. The athlete starts in the three-point stance, explodse out 5 yards to his right, touches the line, goes back 10 yards to his left, left hand touches the line, pivot, and he turns 5 more yards and finishes.

Reviewed: January 16, 2014 by gabber, a Straight Married Male
After having a cheap throwaway vibrating cock ring, I wanted to try something "more". Metal ones look a bit scary. I was tempted by the Bull ones but couldn't justify the cost so opted for this instead.
Wow! Having a box full of toys for Mrs Gabber, it was nice to have something for me for a change. It is quite a tight fit on my shaft (lube needed to get it on easily), but once on what an effect it has. My cock gets a lot thicker, goes a bit purple (in a good way, not blood stopped circulating way!) and really veiny. The second ring pulls your balls forward, and the more aroused you get the bigger they grow too. All in all it enhances your overall package.
And then in use - makes me last longer and when I do cum it is explosive. And for her - she loves how much more girth it gives and swears that she can feel the veins pulsing inside her.
Everyone's a winner!
- Pros
- Penis enhancement, explosive orgasms.
- Cons
- Colour?
- Bottom line
- Essential package-enhancing bands.

Nomura's chief general counsel Stephen Ball says that he had a flood of job offers before he decided to join Los Angeles firm Gibson Dunn & Crutcher to head its UK law practice.
So why did he opt to make his name as the first in-house counsel to go to a US firm in London, despite offers including the chance to become head of legal at ABN Amro?
Ball's characteristically laid back response is: "It was the fact that Gibson Dunn had Californian origins - I have always preferred Baywatch to Coronation Street."
Ball has spent the last two months on gardening leave after quitting the top post at the Japanese banking group in February. Since leaving Nomura he has considered joining Jiway, a stock exchange internet site established by Morgan Stanley, as well as other private practice options.
He says: "A number of international financial institutions and global law firms contacted me." But his mind was already made up.
"While I was at Nomura I worked with Gibson Dunn for about the last three years on a number of different transactions.
"I have come to really respect the lawyers both here and in the US and one day the managing partner Wesley Howell phoned me up and said, 'Look, we are going to build a very high quality English practice, are you interested in heading it?'
"It was not so much a conscious decision. This was just too exciting an opportunity to pass up."
Ball has spent the last three years in the top job at Nomura, where he was also managing director and a member of the board of directors and executive committee. Before joining the group he spent eight years at Bankers Trust, first as the general counsel for Europe in London, and then for Asia in Hong Kong.
But it was the four years he spent at Linklaters in New York which tempted him into a US firm.
"I am used to working in an American environment. If you count my time at Bankers Trust, I have worked in America or in an American environment for 10 or 11 years."
Sources close to Ball say that it will not be the move to a US firm that will be the challenge, but the fact that he is moving back to private practice after spending most of his career in-house.
He will start with a non-existent client list, and though he has a reputation as a strong manager, it might not be enough to build a UK practice.
Gibson Dunn managing partner Wesley Howell says: "Stephen worries about it. He's going to say, 'I don't know how I'm going to find these clients,' but I don't have any doubt that clients will come to him."
However, Ball says that he is not concerned about it, citing his contacts both in law firms and in-house as just what he needs to get Gibson Dunn's practice up and running.
He says: "Having been a client for the last 10 years, I know who I think are great lawyers in the English, American and international law firms.
"I have already started phoning them up and there are three new partners in the pipeline."
Ball is only the second UK qualified lawyer in Gibson Dunn's London practice - former Nabarro Nathanson property finance partner Alan Samson joined earlier this year (The Lawyer, 24 January).
Ball says that he hopes there will be eight UK qualified partners in the office by the end of the year.
"My role is going to involve everything. It's going to be managing, it's going to be building the practice and practising law, everything that's needed to really start a strong practice," he says.
Despite the enormous task ahead of him, Ball is completely relaxed about his new role. After just nine days in the job he is heading off for a snowboarding holiday in Utah this week. "I'm just about good enough to get up, stay on for a minute and then fall off," he says.
No doubt Ball needs a break after two hectic months on gardening leave, when he did a lot of pro bono work for a flying hospital in the US and played househusband, looking after his children while his wife was out of the country.
He managed to find time to holiday in the Cayman Islands as well, but it is the charity work that Ball is really keen to talk about.
"I have been doing pro bono work for the flying hospital, which is this jet based in the States and is completely kitted out as a hospital with full medical services.
"The charity says, 'Okay the Sudan needs a whole series of operations.' It identifies what is needed and identifies US doctors and nurses and it flies them all out.
"We are setting up a UK charity so a plane may well be based here."
Ball says that he gave the charity as much help as it needed, and that he did it because the time had come to "put something back".
And the time has come in many respects this year. Ball has probably made his biggest career move so far - and has a big challenge ahead.
But to that he just smiles and says: "I think every so often in your life you have to reinvent yourself. This was just so exciting, so different, it proved irresistible."

{ /takes in the advice being given to him; is laughing so hard deep down bc jfc she has no clue that her own advice is going to go against her } Okay, I'll do that. { /pauses for a moment before taking a deep breath; immediately brings down his face to hers and smashes their lips together } — { /heart beat increases second by second; waits for her reaction, hoping that it isn't negative }
(` waits for him to leave since it's the reality she doesn't want but was bound to happen, quirks a brow when he stood there, eyes wide as if popping out of their sockets in surprise but then closes them tight, his lips soft on hers; her cheeks flushes twice as red as before, fingers curling on his shirt as he pulled away, unable to say anything for a few seconds. finally, her eyes meets his ) …It's me. (` says to herself, then repeats her words louder, heart beat increasing. hwan hui punches yukwon's chest, a sob mixed with a scoff escapes her ) If I knew that advice was for me then… (` bites her lips ) I would've told you to kiss her for a second time.
{ /feels as if his heart is going to burst out of his chest at any moment; breathes in and out somewhat heavily } I've decided to confess to her.. But I don't know whether I should just flat out tell her or just kiss her and feel her wrath afterwards. { /tilts his head } What do you think I should do?
Right now? (` her brows furrow, containing the words she wants to express you're going to leave me here after asking me for advice? some friend. instead, she pondered on what a good friend would say ) Kiss her, then run before you get a beating. If she calls out to you, try to hint on her tone if it's angry or not. If it is, switch schools. If not, run back to her. (` nods )
.. You think so? { /stares at her with a look of worry; rubs his thumb on the pinkish-red skin of her right cheek, noticing how warm it is } — { /decides to bring up the topic that they were talking about earlier; it was now or never } I know this is random and all, but remember the girl I was telling you about? The one that I'm practically in love with but to scared to tell her?
(` nods her head since it's the only thing she could do, her insides melting at his touch and all she wanted to do was to disperse and evaporate into thin air, out of this heart racing situation she found herself to be in ) Yeah? What about her? (` tries not to make her voice sharp, hiding the fact she's annoyed that yukwon's bringing up another girl in this )
{ /lets out a puff of air; slams the book shut before yelping quietly from the sudden force on his foot } — { /holds onto her, making sure he doesn't release her from his grip or else he'd felt that she would fall; his heart accelerates while his face heats up due to the closeness } I-It's fine. { /looks down at her; reaches to tilt her head up, cups her face with his hands } You okay?
(` fists her hands and unclench them once she let go of his robe, nodding her head, eyes slightly widens when he tilted her head, fully aware at how hot her skin is and how red her cheeks are by this time ] I..think so.. (` tries to avoid his gaze, but finds himself getting drawn deeper into those orbs, causing her heart beat to race )
{ /rolls his eyes } You'll always be
mya baby to me~~ { /pulls on the collar of his robes nervously; feels his palms starting to sweat; for some reason this is the most awkward position he's ever been in } Uh, how about I just stop here?
(` nods, avoiding his eyes but smiles still ) I..think you should. (` forces a laugh, finally looking at him, her face suddenly becomes hot for some weird reason. hwan hui clears her throat, taking a step forward but ends up stepping on his foot instead and whatever gravity made her trample over, hand clutching onto his arms for dear life, hiding her face on his chest ) S-sorry..
{ /scoffs; nudges her arm with his shoulder } Let me remind you that I'm the taller one here, little girl. { /smirks; shrugs as he begins to lean away from her } You're still a baby. You shouldn't be hearing stories about kissing and such. { /pokes her cheek } Aw, don't pout. I'll read it. { /opens the book; begins to read } Once there was a girl named Kristine, and she was very much in love w/ her next door neighbor yada yada yada. { /reads on until he gets to kissing scene } Her cheeks flushed a deep red as James leaned forward… { /begins to feel awks omfg idk mang }
(` huffs, cheeks puffed as she leans against a wall, listening to him, scoffing at the statement ) Hey. I'm the same age as you! I'm no baby (` scrunches her nose at him, arms crossed as she listens to the story, licking her lips at the detailed kiss, looking anywhere but at him because awkward too mang )
{ /tilts his head to the side; chuckles slightly before taking the book from her hands } Bedtime story, huh? { /flips through the book; looks up at her }
Niqqa pls.Pretty sure my speech is better than yours. You sure you want me to read this? It has… { /gets close to her ear; whispers } kissing.
Don't shift the subject to me, little boy. (` was probably a mistake to call him that, considering she's shorter than her by a few inches, she keeps her mouth shut, leaning back when he got close, actually shivering at what this asshole did ) W-what? You think I can't handle some kissing, huh? (` pouts slightly )
{ /looks around the empty common room as they enter; walks around the room before turning to face the girl who had put the kitten down on the couch and all that shit idk } — { /heart immediately begins to flutter; mentally curses himself for letting himself fall this hard } Yeah, I guess so. { /scratches the back of his neck awkwardly } So.. What do you want to do?
(` dusts her skirt before she walks towards him, arm clung onto his as she drags yukwon around, eyes spotting a book shelf ) Bedtime story. You should read me one. (` smiles, tugging him along with her, picks out a random book from the stacks, dusts it off and hands it to yukwon ) You need a little practice on your speech anyways. (` laughs, teasing him )

Guernica Editors (via Editors' Picks: Thanksgiving Reads - Guernica / A Magazine of Art & Politics)
Grace Paley first came to me in a poem, a twenty-line charmer on lust and aging, slid across the table of a San Francisco dive. If that line reeks of sentimentality, it channels what Paley'sCollected Stories don't. They're wry (sometimes hilarious) odes to disappointment—full of families with mismatched needs and lovers that just sort of wander off. They brim with the resigned but restless wisdom of the disillusioned. If that sounds un-fun, it's not; I'm thankful for their salty anchor and the little skiff that brought them to me.

For those involved in the events that unleashed World War II, some memories will never be erased. Veterans from all branches of the U.S. military convened Friday in the historical Fighter Gallery at Hill Air Force Base. Aerospace Museum to reminisce about "the war." Dean Hurst, U.S. Army paratrooper veteran, moderated a panel of eight veterans from World War II, all of whom attended Weber College before it gained university status, "I'm in the presence of heroes and they are, uniquely, alumni from Weber State College," Hurst said.

When the clock strikes midnight, a bonafide kiss turns them into "true wildcats." The tradition carries on annually ' Festival to offer major advice By Cristopher Fowers campus affairs The Signpost More than one-third of Weber State University students have not declared a major, and the thought of doing, so can be overwhelming. The Major Fest. held today in the Shepherd Union Building, will give undecided students, and those who would just like to consider other majors, the opportunity to explore their options "Students can come and really explore majors in one place," said Debbie Cragun,. Academic-Advisor.Students are invited to stop by from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Shepherd Union Ballroom. Academic Advisement designed and organized the event so students can get information on any of the majors WSU offers in one place. Each major will have a booth set up with information and someone present to answer questions. Cragun said many students don't realize how to declare a major and to whom they need to speak for information on their major. " Major FestJ kind of breaks down those walls hopefully for the students," Cragun said. This is the tJiird year WSU has held the annual festival and though past years have been very successful, this year will be slightly different. Each booth will have a drop bos,. Students are invited to fill out cards and drop them into the boxes of majors they are interested in. In turn, this department will contact students "Students can come and really explore majors in one place' Debbie Cragun WSU academic advisor and guide them through the process of declaring a major. This will also serve as a way for Academic Advisement to monitor how many students declare a major after attending the festival. Many student's feel overwhelmed and indecisive when tying to decide where to direct their studies or if the direction they are going is really right for them. The average student changes his or her major 4 times before finally settling down, choosing a major and sticking to it. Cragun said time is one of the biggest concerns students have. Everyone wants to get through school as soon as possible and feel they have wasted their time if they change majors , or are undecided. Cragun encourages students not to get discouraged and to remember every student needs 120 credit hours to graduate, and that classes are never a waste of time. - "All those experiences build up to a final package," Cragun said. She said when students change See Festival page 11 Search for life in space closer than it seems Physics professor investigates possibilities of other life forms By Maria Villasenor asst. news editor The Signpost Utah may not seem like a critical area to NASA, but research is done at Weber State University that is necessary for future space investigations. John Armstrong, WSU physics research professor, received funding from NASA for a project that has long interested people the possibility of life in outer space. "Essentially what we are trying to do is build inside of our computer a model of how the Earth's environment works and how that looks from outer space," Armstrong said. The project Armstrong works on is the Virtual Planetary Lab based in the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in California, part of the NASATerrestrial Planetary Finder. Through digital mediums, scientists working in California, Pennsylvania and Utah can work together on the VPL. NASA's project works on developing the equipment to find Earth-like planets and understand how solar systems have developed. The VPL and Armstrong's role is to write a computer model of how light from Earth-like planets would look from space. "That infrared radiation coming off planets gets imprinted with the signature of the composition of that atmosphere," Armstrong said. "So if that atmosphere has carbon dioxide or ozone or water vapor, stuff like That, those signatures are actually imprinted on the light that travels through space." Armstrong said the work involves help from microbiologists, climatologists, geologists, astronomers and physicists. "All together, from all these different disciplines, we're working to try and build a planet inside a computer." he said. "A planet that we can change all of its properties and twist little dials and see what happens when it changes. And its pretty challenging because planets are very complicating systems." Important factors in understanding a planet's atmospheric composition arc the living organisms on the planet. . "This planet is almost all microbiology," Armstrong said.

|Associated Students of Weber State University; A generous grant from the Utah State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

For Immediate Release: May 8, 2012; 10:05 a.m.
TRAFFIC ADVISORY 10:05 A.M.: Exit 24 of Thruway Closed in Albany
No Traffic Toward I-87 Northbound or I-90 Eastbound
Motorists in the Albany area can expect delays Tuesday, May 8, because of the temporary closing of Exit 24 of the New York State Thruway.
The Exit 24 (Albany, Adirondack Northway) toll plaza will be closed to traffic headed northbound on I-87 and eastbound on I-90 from 12 noon to 3 p.m.
The Exit 24 toll plaza will remain open to motorists traveling south on the Adirondack Northway (I-87) and headed west on I-90 or south on I-87.
Northbound motorists from points south of Albany should use Exit 21A (I-90 east) to travel the Berkshire Spur to Exit B1 (I-90 west). Travelers should then take I-90 to I-787 north, continuing to Exit 9W to Route 7 and access to the Adirondack Northway (I-87).

In honor of The Queen's diamond jubilee this weekend, asked my friend Beth to come up with a signature cocktail to mark the occasion. When I initially emailed her about it, I had three requests:
It must be pink and sweet – After all, she is a Granny.It must be slightly sour – 60 years on the throne, y'all.It must have gin – It's The Queen's hooch of choice.
Beth, who can make a good stiff drink out of lighter fluid if she had to, came up with something I think you will adore. It's sweet and sour with a kick – just like The Queen. I call it a Big Liz. The recipe below is in bulk format because you will want to serve it in good company.
BIG LIZ6 cups of seltzer (that's roughly 3/4 of a 2 liter bottle)1 can of frozen limeade (lemonade works in a pinch)1 jar of maraschino cherries1-2 cups of Gin (more or less to taste)5 dashes of hot saucelimes to garnishMix the frozen limeade, gin, cherry juice and hot sauce together at the bottom of a pitcher, gradually finishing with seltzer. Serve straight or on the rocks. Garnish with lime wedges and cherries on Union Jack cocktail picks.
Don't like booze? Serving children? Want it extra sweet? Try a Little Lizzy. If you have ever had a cherry limeade at Sonic (holla!) this will taste awfully familiar.
THE LITTLE LIZZY (The kiddo version)1 two liter bottle of lemon-lime soda1 can of frozen limeade (lemonade works too)1 jar of maraschino cherriesMix and enjoy.
PRINCE PHILIP (Sweet with some heat and an iron fist)Mix equal parts Tabasco flavored tequila, cranberry juice and pineapple juice. Shake over ice and serve in a martini glass.
DUCHESS OF CORNWALL (Old fashioned with a touch of sass)Single barrel vintage bourbon with a splash of sparkling lemonade. Garnish with mint.
|You have to see the collection of portraits over at The Sun. I'm especially fond of these portrait mosaics by Jane Perkins.

My husband and I are both teachers. We teach and live most of the year in beautiful Maine. We love to travel and have taken our 2 kids to North Carolina and many other destinations throughout the country and the world whenever we've had the chance. NOTE: Nous parlons francais. Hablamos espanol.
The Owner purchased this cottage in 1987
Why The Owner chose Linville
My parents starting camping in their mobile home decades ago when Linville Land Harbor was just a campground. Over the years, Land Harbor evolved into a beautiful resort, and my parents added onto the mobile home. to create this lovely summer cottage. My husband and I have brought our children here each summer to vacation and visit the grandparents. Now the kids are grown, my parents are out of the cottage, and we've decided to rent it out when we're not there enjoying it ourselves.
What makes this cottage unique
This cottage has always been a relaxing retreat for me and my family.
My kids love the pool, but my favorite activity is to take long walks with my husband. Each day, we step outside our door and start walking in any direction that strikes our mood. No matter where we walk, we are struck by the incredible beauty of the area—the colors of the flowers, the deep green of the foliage, the songs of the birds. It's quiet, quality time for us as a couple.
