The Wedding Gallery
St. Charles
I went to their 2nd St location which is mostly sample sale dresses and prom. The service was amazing and my large group was given complete attention that made the whole experience a lot of fun. Not to mention I bought a beautiful off the rack dress that fit perfectly and was more than half off it's retail.

This place was awful!!!!! I drove a half hour away to come here and I got there a little early so they took me in a little early, my appointment was at 1pm. I guess I wasn't spending enough money there for them so after 30 minutes, they told me my time was up because they had more brides coming in. She wouldn't get my any variety of dress at all and was stuck on the fact that my budget was 1k or under. Terrible, terrible!! I would never recommend this place to anyone!!

This place is absolutely horrible. I am surprised they are still in business as I have heard others compliants similiar to mine. I was made to feel as if I couldn't afford what they had to offer. The lead sales manager, Lisa, insulted by friend with me asking if she was my mother. I called to complain and received a call back from the lead sales manager, Lisa. She openly admitted to being RUDE to us. Made the situation worse. The store is trying to become conture, funny..good luck with that.

They were horrible! They actually told me that I personally couldn't try a destination wedding dress on because I wasn't having a destination wedding. They were extremely rude especially after they knew I purchased the dress and they were not very accommodating for appointments. I would never go back there and they charge you for every detail. They also told me that my dress could come in a Sweetheart neckline and when I got my dress back the alteration department said that it couldn't and that she would have to put a stitch in there and bunch my neckline down into a sweetheart which i was extremely upset about.

I cannot imagine why there are people rating the Wedding Gallery so low. I have been there so many times they know me by name (me, my sister, and best friend are all getting married). When I was going dress shopping with my sister, I found a dress that I fell in love with (even though I already had a wedding dress-- 2 actually...). I went back and described the dress and Paige was able to find it for me. With my wedding being so close, I was pretty sure that a new dress would not be an option. However, Nagua (sp?), the owner, has a close relationship with many designers, including the one for my dress. She made one call and my dress was in within three weeks. I ended up getting my veil there too and it is gorgeous as well.
They are very busy many times and the space is a bit tight on Saturdays but I have had nothing but a positive experience. My best friend ended up getting her dress there as well-- also a positive experience. They are very helpful and kind. I am considering getting my alterations done there too. If I do, I will update my post. :-)
I would highly recommend this store to anyone! The dresses and accessories are unlike any you will find elsewhere.

I could not have found the more perfect wedding dress at The Wedding Gallery! The alteration services were incredible. I had such a positive experience with my seamstress. She truly wanted my dress
to be perfect for my special day. I highly recommend The Wedding Gallery!

AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL!!!! I tried on a dress that was out of my budget. Of course fell in love with it. The 'old' blonde/grey haired boss lady walked out of the fitting area and called someone came back stating "This must be your dress and your lucky day, because it is discontinued, and we can give it to you for $800" I look the dress over because it had a few things wrong, and she said they will FIX anything wrong with it (makeup stain, loops that were busted, blah blah) I purchased the dress on their "layaway" WHEN I WENT SHOPPING FOR BRIDESMAID DRESSES, I SEEN THE SAME DRESS, ASKED THE BRIDAL SHOP IF IT WAS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AND THEY SAID IT JUST CAME OUT!!!! AND IT WAS ONLY $925 BRAND NEW!!!! Because I had already paid 500 towards the dress and had the thought they would fix it like new I just continued to keep paying, because this was the dress I wanted. I Just picked it up - was told they CANNOT do the alterations due to being to full (my wedding is in 6 months!!), and WILL NOT fix the dress - and because I had signed an "as is" receipt I don't have a leg to stand on!!! These people will do ANYTHING to get you to spend money!! Please DO NOT TRUST THEM!!! I have a dress that I have to spend another 300$ on to have it fixed by someone else, and will now be spending more ON A FLOOR SAMPLE than had I just bought the new one from the other TRUTHFUL bridal store!

I was quite happy with the Wedding Gallery and their services. The staff was very helpful in finding my dress and dresses for my bridesmaids and all were an affordable price.
I had to push a little for flexibility with times for alterations and fittings because I live out of town and was only able to come for fittings on weekends but they worked with me and my schedule.
Had to make several requests for beading and such to be repaired as promised... slight push back but remained good with the agreement and all was repaired.
The woman who does the bustling is excellent - she worked with me on exactly how I wanted the back of my dress to look when bustled to still be able to see/enjoy all of the details on the back and it was beautiful. Many compliments on the bustle! She incorporated both traditional and french bustling to accomplish the look.
The owner is very nice and is a great business person - she was accommodating and helpful and was genuinely happy to see me happy with my dress!

The day we picked out the dress was a Saturday and the staff was rather pushy and not very friendly. They would not allow the bride to try on the dresses alone without a staff member in the dressing room, and they all seemed paranoid about us taking a picture of the dress before we paid for it. The alterations cost as much as the dress did and they didn't call us when they were ready for the first fitting. We had to bug them for a fitting. The seemstress who did the alterations was exceptional. She was able to get the dress to fit perfectly in two fittings. The ribbon which allowed us to bustle the dress broke within 30 minutes of having it tied up. We had to pin up the train for the rest of the evening.

I love my dress! But, when I went for first fitting the custom care wasn't quite what i had hoped for. Also, when I scheduled my pick up of my dress and showed up to get it, they had no idea where my dress was or that I was picking it up! Thank goodness it was a few days before the wedding and they had time to figure it out. I would only suggest purchasing here, maybe go else where for alterations.

I was very happy to find a "beachy" dress in Missouri!
My dress was amazing, although I still do not know the maker.
This business does not provide designer names. Although it did not bother me, it might bother some ladies, so FYI. Also, they do not budge on price! I will admit, I thought my dress price was affordable. However, when it came time for alterations I was stunned! I thought they were really expensive, but my dress did turn out PERFECT! I would most definitely recommend them for dress choices!
I only have one complaint. My 1st dress alterations were scheduled for Sept. 7 (with my wedding on Nov. 11). With no other alterations, my dress was not ready until the Friday before my wedding! I will admit I was scared that my dress would not be done. After MANY MANY phone calls, it was finally finished in time and it looked AMAZING! It could also have been my timing, but just be sure to schedule your alterations, so that there is plenty of time for corrections if needed.

INCREDIBLE service!!!
I went to the Wedding Gallery 4 (!!!!) weeeks before my wedding. After the first salon (very high end and expensive) ordered me the wrong dress I had 1 hour to pick out a new dress at the same salon to replace the dress I originally wanted. I underestimated how disappointed I would be by this decision, but I felt put under time pressure and at the time thought as long as I had a white dress I would be fine. Of course at the first fitting I wasn't crazy about the new selection but I tried to convince myself that I liked it for a long time. At the end when I confessed to my mother that I secretely wished I had a different dress she suggested that we went to some bridal salons and attempt to find something off the rack that could be altered to my size in such a short timespan.
Whenever a bride goes to a bridal salon the first question anyone asks is "When is the wedding date?"- whenever I would tell them and they realized it was a month away they would practically laught at me, look at me as if I had lost my mind and not be very helpful to me as a result. It made me feel very dissatisfied with the type of customer service I was provided, especially since we were willing to spend any amount to find the dress I needed to feel pretty.
After many disappointments we decided to make the track to St. Charles just to give it one last try. When I walked in the first thing I was told "Don't worry. You have come to the right place and no matter what we will find you a dress here today." Those words alone were enough to make me feel satisfied with their services. After they showed me some other dresses, they brought out an AMAZING gown by Aire Barcelona. It's an exclusive spanish designer and the wedding gallery are the only ones in MO who carry this label. The gown was everything I wanted and more, everyone at the wedding either described it as breathtaking or stunning.
In addition to being able to find the DREAM GOWN, their alteration services were uncomparable as well. It took them ONLY ONE WEEK to alter the gown true to my size and it was very affordable on top of it. My sister who was my maid of owner actually took her bridesmaid dress else where for alterations and they messed up her whole dress. Luckily we had already discovered the Wedding Gallery magic alteration services and they were able to fix her dress as well and they 100% saved the day for us.
I would recommend them to any bride. We went to all of the highest end salons in St. Louis and not a single one were able to provide the type of service or selection we were given at the Wedding Gallery. Simply AMAZING!

Getting Out with Your New Baby
4. Bring your stroller inside and practice: Do a trial run set up the night before. Take a "stroll" with your baby around the living room. Rehearse attaching the detachable the sun umbrella and/or stroller awning.
5. Do a test run on your own: Be on the lookout for safe sidewalks. Check out the local coffee shop and park. Could you comfortably nurse there? Who has room for your stroller? Where are the other moms meeting?
6. Check the weather report the day of your outing: Blustery winds, sudden drops in temperature, and chilly rain can ruin even a short walk.
7. In the beginning, set your sights low: Forget about spending the day at the mall, stopping at the post office, picking up a coffee, or making a quick deposit at the bank. Congratulate yourself with each new step you take, whether it's up and down the driveway or around the block.
8. Be malleable: As you get to know your baby's temperament, preferences, and schedule, the best routine will emerge. A 20-minute, after-breakfast stroll; an hour-long afternoon excursion; or a quick jog at dusk might make your day. But be smart; even if you want to go the park and your baby's screaming, it's time to go home and try again another time.
9. Consider investing in a jogging stroller: This is essential if you prefer exercise walks or jogs. These strollers ride smoothly over even the bumpiest terrain, allowing you to workout while moving with your baby. Even a tiny infant can ride in one. Remember to secure your baby's head, and always buckle up.
Where to Go, What to Do
Oh, the places you'll go! Start by packing a book, the newspaper, stationery, stamps, address book, and pen for when your little one dozes off.
Check out your local library, coffee shop, pediatrician's office, park, the toy store—that's where the other moms are hanging out. (They're looking for new friends, too!) Soon, you'll be managing outings like a pro.
See? That didn't take so long.

MONROE, La. (AP) - Ouachita Parish sheriff's deputies arrested a man over the weekend for allegedly burning his girlfriend with a clothes iron.
33-year-old Allen Robinson of Monroe was booked into the Ouachita Correctional Center early Sunday morning on a charge of attempted second-degree murder.
According to an arrest affidavit, deputies were called to E.A. Conway Medical Center about a woman who was beaten and burned.
Deputies say they searched the suspect's home and found an iron with what they said was human flesh on the surface.
Investigators say the victim was burned during an argument.
It was not immediately known whether Robinson has an attorney.

11/12 Leaked Insider Recording - Aliens - Part 3

- uploaded: Nov 12, 2011
- Hits: 479
Part 2 Here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKNpNMNbxXA
Part 3 of 3 parts.
This audio was recorded and sent to a close friend of mine in 2008. The person recording the audio was a government worker based near Groom Lake. Before retirement, this audio was created and sent to a close relative not to be made public for 2 years.
The audio in this and future videos was transferred off a hand held digital tape recorder. This is the first of 3 parts that will be uploaded.
I can confirm the validity of the person who created this recording, however within 2 months of his discharge, the person who created this recording was killed in a "car crash" outside of Dallas, TX. It is the families belief that this was nothing more than a cover, and that telling the truth resulted in the taking of this man's life.
Please Spread This Video
It is my only wish to make this information public, so that the truth regarding what the government won't tell us is out.
Please e-mail or message me for questions.

This is a very pro-gray account of contact. Not all accounts of grays are so positive, and the narrator has nothing to say about the Negatives. It seems to me that Roswell has been used as a vehicle to give some good news propaganda. Frankly, I don't buy it. There is a counter-claim that it was the grays who broke the agreement with the humans, although America has historical form on breaking treaties (esp. with native indian tribes). This may be a red herring, anyway.In DUMBs, humans, grays, and reptoids have supposedly been colluding to set up the Nazi-Zionist New World Order. Royal reptoid families would rule over human slaves, as they have apparently done before. If the grays are cyborgs, then they are probably mind controlled slaves too. The motives of reptoids and grays are genetic. They reportedly seek to downgrade the human genome, so as to trap humans in slavery at the third density level of evolution. Supposedly unable to reproduce, the ETs seek to ensure their own survival by creating human-alien hybrids like the French Cat Woman on youtube. The suffering of humans in these undertakings is irrelevant. However, given the sociopathy of some humans, it may be true that abductions are often hoaxed by humans who provide screen memories to abductees. The motive being twofold, firstly to tag and mind control, and secondly to generate xenophobia. It looks as though sheeple are prey to wicked humans and desperate aliens. However, there is/was war in the heavens. It may be that the scheming demons will be met by angels, as is reported in numerous religious texts. We shall see, or not.

Cool dude. I'll just go ahead and take your word for it. NOT. This dude just took known shit and ran with it.. Good thing he didn't give a name. Because when his predictions prove to be bunk, we won't know who he is. I did't give a bad rating though. A lot of what he says here is more likely true than not. He whitewashes the alien presence though. If they are here, bet your ass they are involved with governments and leaders. And we all know what evil bastards they are.

Toddlers and Tiaras pageant mom Holly will do anything to give her daughter Natali an edge. ANYTHING, do you hear me? And if that means never weaning her breastfeeding 3-and-a-half-year-old, fine. Holly is breastfeeding Natali to pageant glory.
Well, it's better than go-go juice. I'll give her that. But breast milk giving your 3-year-old a competitive edge in a toddler pageant? As a pro-breastfeeding mom, it pains me to say this, but: That's crazy talk.
I mean, breastfeeding makes every baby girl a beauty queen -- metaphorically speaking. But past the age of 3, I just don't think the nutritional benefits of breast milk are going to make that much of a difference in a pageant. Try some avocado, you know?
On the other hand, I guess extended breastfeeding might comfort a child whose her parents make her compete on stage in front of a live audience and pressure her to win. I bet that's why Natali isn't ready to wean! Life is scary for her and the ONE source of security in her life where she feels accepted just for being herself, not for winning, is when she's at mama's breast. Poor thing.
Honestly, no mother needs an excuse for extended breastfeeding. If you want to keep going, that's no one's business. More power to the both of you! But come on. It's not the crunchy pageant mom's go go juice.
Do you believe that breastfeeding gives Natali an edge in pageants?

A colleague recently gave me the September issue, in which there was an article about a granary and its basement water problems ("Drying a Stone Cellar"). When I started to read the article — about the restoration of an old structure — I was interested. As I read further, I realized that this was not a restoration at all, but a remodeling and sterilization.
My major disagreement is the application of modern building methods to this old structure. One example is the author's use of a vapor barrier on the ground in the cellar. The moisture content in the soil under the vapor barrier will rise, causing moisture to migrate vertically in the foundation walls. This can cause a condition called rising damp. In England, rising damp was often addressed by laying a lead course in the foundation, but this technique is seldom seen in America. Sometimes you find a slate course in the wall, which helps to block the rising moisture. Rising damp can also cause serious problems with plaster and stucco finishes further up the wall, and it can degrade the lime mortar in the stone wall. We have inspected many houses where a recently placed basement slab is causing these problems.
The second issue I take exception to is the repointing of the mortar in the stone foundation. If this were a true restoration, lime mortar analysis would have been performed, and then a like material would have been used in the repointing process. Using the correct mortar is a huge issue, completely glossed over in the article. For example, the illustration shows water running through the wall to get to the interior drains, yet this will degrade the walls by washing out the existing lime mortar. And if portland cement was used, it will act as a plug, until the flexible wall blows all of it out. I hope that portland cement mortar was not used here, for it will result in premature failure.
I don't feel that what was done to this building reflects a restoration ethic, yet these heavy-handed methods were transmitted to the readership as acceptable practice. There are training groups for craftsmen who perform restorations, such as the Preservation Trade Network and the Association for Preservation Technology. Possibly Mr. Lauten should look into these before performing his next "restoration."

Author Robert Lauten responds: Regarding the vapor barrier, we almost always recommend at least a sheet of plastic over the dirt floor in the basement or crawlspace of an old stone structure. This reduces the overall interior moisture level, and lowered humidity helps protect wooden structural elements from mold, rot, and termites. I think this is just sound practice. The 6 mil poly is the issue, of course, not the slab.I am not clear as to whether preventing the soil from releasing moisture to the air in one area might increase the pressure or volume of moisture in other areas (through the walls, for example). The specific problem in this project was bulk water flowing through the building; enclosing it under a moisture barrier beneath the slab and providing a series of drainage pipes seems to have resulted in much improved performance for the building. In this case I don't think that a blowout in the 3-foot-thick base of the wall is going to be a problem: Where the water was running, we let it run. We also regraded the perimeter of the structure to make sure that the only moisture we were dealing with was from underground.In terms of restoration, we took a building that was unconditioned and naturally ventilated, and sealed it up and conditioned it. Lowering interior moisture was essential. And as Mr. Logan points out, the stone walls can dry to the inside, so there is some balance and potential relief for the (apparently minimal) capillary transfer.As for mortar, our masonry consultant advised that while he knew that lime mortar would perform well, he wasn't certain about portland. However, the owner had already repointed the exterior with portland cement mortar in the 1980s, was satisfied with the appearance and performance to date, and did not see a justification for the additional expense of the historically correct material. We recommended the lime option, but accepted the owner's decision.There are always trade-offs when modern practices are integrated with older building materials and systems. Balancing the many aesthetic, functional, and economic costs and benefits is part art, part science, and one of the things that makes our trade interesting. I believe that this project represents a comprehensive and effective solution to a unique set of problems. We preserved a significant amount of the original historic fabric of the structure while facilitating an adaptive re-use.

Dont careI dont wanna go to school, i dont wanna see ur face.I just wanna go hide in another time and place.Dont say ur sorry, cuz i really dont care.Dont expect me to forgive u, when u were never there.Dont ask me why, cuz ive told u before.And its not my fault u keep comin back for more.I dont care WHAT u think, i dont even wanna kno.so dont try to talk to me, just let it go.
-Teardrops on the Pavement-The moon reflected off of her radiant skin, the seeping light almost seeming hollow. Her wearisome footsteps came to a halt. Breathing only made the agonizing silence louder. Echoing through the deserted tunnels in her mind. How she wished she could crawl into the silence and never return, to cease to exist. She felt his familiar touch on her shoulder and didn't want to turn around. Didn't want to feed her mind another image of his face to haunt her with. The silky breeze caressed the strands of her hair as he said her name. Her name had never sounded so perfect. The rhythm of his voice flowing lightly from his lips, the lips she had known more intimately than anything else in this world. She wanted to keep walking as she felt the stinging tears in her eyes. Why was he doing this to her? Wasn't one goodbye enough? The goodbye? Goodbye. That word had never as much to her as it did on this night. She never knew one word could cut her so deeply, down to her very soul. She heard his
Broken hearts healedIf your spirits brokenand you can't find a friendI will help youput the pieces backa little more each dayIf your heart is lockedand you can't find the keyLay your headupon my shoulderI'll set you free'Cause you were there for meI'll be your securitySo don't you hold back the tears, my dearRelease them so your eyes can clearI know that you will rise againBut you've got to let them tears fallIn your moment of despairthat forces you to think that life's unfairthink back at happy times, remember that I careremember that I'll always be thereI know it makes you scared of what tomorrow may bringbut don't give in to fearAnd stop hiding all alone in your broken heartlet me heal your woundsI wish I had a crystal ball to see what the future holdsBut we don't know how the story ends, untill it's all been toldI hope I can heal this broken heart you have createdIt is tearing me apart to see you like this
-Since You Are Gone-I watch the rain as it drips off my fingers,I feel no pain but still your memory lingers,I guess everything's o.k.I stand silent, waiting for the memories to fade,My feelings run violent, I've never been so afraid,Life gets colder every day.Lost and alone in a world I never knew before,I was growing older with you but you're not here anymore,Into the darkness I fall and there I lay.Curled in a corner, away from view,I've lost all I had, all I had was you,Without you my life will never be the same.Thinking of you near me, I slowly drift to sleep,My dreams are haunted by my fears, I start again to weep,Every night I wake and scream out your name.Since you are gone.
My dark insanityTwisted thoughts, in a twisted mindProvoking meI see the world, through twisted bitter staresBlack is my heart, dark is my soulMy hatred I cannot controlSelf - destruction leads my wayMy own weapons turning against meCutting through my veinsKilling me slowlyLook at what I've becomeA pathetic excuse for livingI can hear the demons call from withinThey rape my mind as I try to resistWhispers of demons saying"commit suicide" echo through my mindI can't resist it because I'm just like themWeak and sick I crawl in the dust of past mistakes,Leaving for the darkness of tears and cold heartachesThe ashes of my life by the torment you've createdI'm no longer a human being, just a fool of anxietythe ugly truth or a pretty lieHowever you see itI am unable to escapeMy darkest insanity
-To Die-Standing here in pain and tears,Lost in memories, the hell of past years.Emotions shifting, anger gripping,Going numb, grip is slipping.Left in darkness, drown in fears,Trapped in silence, deafening to my ears.Stumbling along, flesh is ripping,Blood pours out, keep on tripping.Heart is empty, soul is black,Screams echo out, so much is lacked.Eyes burn, bones crumble,In sorrow die, in darkness stumble.Head gets dizzy, knees go weak,Lungs give out, rotting flesh starts to reek.Laying here, choked with tears,Heartbeat stops, mind floods with fears.So this is death, my last day gone by,The end of this life, the last night I'll cry.Just wanting comfort, to feel warm skin,Too bad it's too late to ever feel again.
Done With YouHow fucked upCan you really be?You think that youTake care of me?I'm your tourniquet,Your advocateYou're a hypocrit,You don't give a shitI mend your woundsI take care of youIt's you who needs meAnd you know it's trueYou're the one with problemsYou're the one who needs helpYou just want somebody weakTo feel better about yourselfYou're nothing butA greedy bitchYou lick my wounds,You'll pull the stitch,You pick my scabsYou won't let me healYou make sure painIs all I feelFind someone elseTo put up with your shitGo eat a dickAnd choke on itCuz I'm sick ofEverything you doIt's over nowI'm done with you...

Northern Illinois University is on the hunt for a new leader after President John G. Peters announced his plans to step down at the end of June.
"I can't express in words my love for this university and its people—for its faculty, staff and students who every day invigorate and inspire me," Peters said during his announcement. "We've shared triumph and tragedy, and in some ways, I feel we've experienced an entire lifetime together. But a university presidency isn't a lifetime appointment."
Peters made his announcement during his annual State of the University address. He assumed the presidency on June 1, 2000.

I'm hesitant to hit you guys with another "this is what I ate for Christmas dinner" recap, ESPECIALLY after Jenny's impressive post about the ridiculous spread that she broke out for her family this year. In terms of diversity of cuisine and sheer volume, I don't think that my meal will stack up to hers. But this story isn't really about the food.
This is about adversity. This is about perseverance. And this is about good old-fashioned American boot-strap-pullin'-get-'er-doneness.
During the holidays, my mom usually slaves in the kitchen, often prepping for a day or two in advance in order to get everything ready for us in time. As my family discovered my interest in food, my mother slowly handed off some of the responsibilities of cooking holiday dinners to me. This includes some of the more sacred dishes, such as the gravy, dressing, and the turkey itself. At Thanksgiving or Christmas, there are few dishes that you simply CAN'T screw up more than those. So, I'm no stranger to pressure at a big family dinner.
But this year was different. For the first time ever, as a treat for our mom, my sister Nikki and I decided to take on the entire meal by ourselves. This should have been our first indication that things were not going to go smoothly.
Though the menu was more extensive than this, including a few apps, some charcuterie, and a few desserts, the dishes relevant to this story were:
Turducken (from Findley's)
Sweet potato casserole
Twice-baked potatoes
Cornbread dressing (My Grandmother's recipe. Trust me, it is better than anything that any member of your family has ever made. Ever.)
Take a moment, put yourself in the shoes of the family cook, and review that list from a practical standpoint. Don't think about the flavors, however delicious they may be. Think about what is required of a chef to cook them, the tools that you would need. What steps will you have to follow to finish this meal for 12 people in a timely manner?
Now think about the single worst thing that could go wrong on the Christmas day if you were that chef. Any guesses?
If you said, "Your oven broke!", then you win a gold star.
Even with a functional oven, cooking multiple pans of dressing, a 10lbs turducken, and both sets of potatoes, we were looking at a combined cooking time of about 8 hours, spread out over the day. We scoured the internet for do-it-yourself fixes, thumbed through then entire owner's manual, and even kicked around the idea of breaking into the neighbor's house to "borrow" their oven for a few hours. Finally, we resigned ourselves to the fact that using an oven was just not an option.
So, this begged the question: What the hell are we doing to do now?
I'll tell you what we did – we made it work. Thankfully, we had a propane grill at our disposal. After stacking multiple levels of baking pans and aluminum foil to diffuse the heat, I converted our gas grill into an oven. Not only did this work, it worked beautifully. With the exception of the first pan of dressing, which developed an unappetizing half-inch thick crust on the bottom, everything came out great.
Compared to some of the kitchen emergencies that some of you have endured over the years, I'm sure that this speed bump seems minor. And it got me thinking….there have to be some pretty hilarious/harrowing holiday disaster stories out there that I'd love to hear.

It was my turn to make Deviled Eggs. Even though I knew my family as traditionalists, I decided to shake things up a bit. I added a bit of Horseradish…everyone HATED it. I'm not allowed to make deviled eggs again. No matter what I make, casserole or desert, everyones 1st Q is: Does it have Horseradish in it?

I remember coming home from college one year for Thanksgiving. My parents were getting their kitchen renovated & they had "promised" my mom she would have her kitchen installed before Thanksgiving. Of course like all construction, we came home to see the wires & everything still sticking out of the wall, no oven in sight. Luckily a neighbor had left us their key for mail pickup, so we went over & used their stuff. But we were definitely getting ready to call the chinese restaurant.
Then just a month ago, my siter (who has hosted Thanksgiving the past 5 years) had her microwave break on Thanksgiving day. Not a huge deal, but coordinating what time things had to go into the single oven – not to mention reheating leftovers – was a logistical nightmare. You always make do, though!

How about…Curry Powder Men instead of Gingerbread Men?? I have one of those test tube racks and the labels are peeling off the tubes, but I'm usually good at determining what I've put in those tubes, until this year…Added a huge tablespoon of curry powder instead of ginger to my dough. Yeah, it's just as disgusting as it sounds.

I have two:
My own: I have had the opportunity to cook Thanksgiving dinner only one, thank goodness! My wife was away taking care of family in the hospital, and I was left the mission of cooking the dinner for my two kids & myself. I had it covered. I made the sides, even though calling them 'Semi-homemade' was a stretch. But the bird…
Butterball allowed one of their finest to be placed in my hands. BAD bad idea. I looked up options on the web and hit onto an idea that involved cooking the bird low & slow, while basting it every 30 minutes or so with white wine (half the bottle 1st, then the other half, then use a baster to recycle the wine from the bottom of the pan.) 3 1/2 hours later, I used the thermometer. It had the right temperature based on the recipe, but it looked like the Edgar Winter of turkeys. I mean it was an albino turkey.
My kids bravely took a portion, ate it quickly, and pronounced the dinner a success. And then quickly left the room with 2nds and 3rds of all the sides. Our dog pronounced it "delicioso'.
I will never live down the albino turkey.
My wife's (kinda):
She's too good of a cook to merit a spot here. But, she's a frequent visitor of a site called 'Two Peas in a Bucket'. This message board has many threads dedicated to many topics of conversation.
Look up 'Giblet Gate'. Truly epic in it's scope. My wife says it makes The Albino Turkey look like haute cuisine.

A few years ago we had a power outage about 30 minutes before Christmas dinner, right as the rib roast was coming out of the oven. Finished everything up and even made Yorkshire Puddings on the trusty gas grill. We ate to candlelight and will always remember it as one of the most fun holiday dinners.

If a guy suddenly appears before me with a big beard and locks and all that caper and performed some fucking miracle, and then said to me, 'Liam, I am God' I'd say, 'Fair enough, it's a fair cop. I didn't believe in you but fair play, you've got me.' But until that day comes he can fuck right off.

Social media started out as a medium for personal communication and sharing. Since then, businesses have realized the marketing potential of social networking websites such as Facebook and Twitter. With Facebook and Twitter, businesses can now connect with their audience on a more personal level. They are able to engage, share, build loyalty and attract new customers with their social media presence. For awhile, social media was just a bonus in a marketer's strategy. Now, Facebook and Twitter have become essential tools in the age of digital marketing, and many marketers have learned to master it to their advantage.
Mastering Facebook and Twitter, however, is not enough. Social networking sites have continually been emerging but many marketers neglect and reject the opportunities to better connect with their audience. One network that many marketers seem to be neglecting is Google +. And they are very wrong to do so. You might be asking yourself- why should I maintain a Google+ profile when my existing social media profiles do essentially the same thing?
As a SEO company, we spend half our lives on Google. Our industry is built almost solely on Google. Google+ is Google's social networking platform- it's Google's creation. As SEOs and marketers, understanding and properly using Google+ will bring you many benefits that Google has integrated into their social networking website.

The sys admin's daily grind: Yourls
Without TinyURL.com and similar URL shortening services, many Twitter postings would only have enough space left for "Look at this." But if you run a web server yourself, you might prefer to grow your own shortener.
Identi.ca and Twitter are currently driving demand for URL shortening services; 140 characters just doesn't give you enough space to waste 60 characters on a web address. Even in normal email, it can make sense to use a URL shortener if an embedded URL reaches the maximum line length of 80 characters. TinyURL.com, which recently acquired MakeAShorterLink.com, can squash these behemoths.

What is this "Pain Cave Fitness.com?
For cyclists, it's the place you go deep inside yourself when you are halfway up a mountain and you are about to lose it…..you grit your teeth and just…keep…pedaling.
For those of us that understand the methodologies behind Pain Cave Fitness, it is not a singular place, workout or "thing". That's why we created PainCaveFitness.com in order to help reach the masses in a way that everyone can understand, follow along and change their lives for the better, in turn making the world a better place to live.
The Pain Cave is not a place, a training regimen or a system; rather it is a way of life.
Are you an athlete that has reached the potential your current coaching staff or trainers can offer and are looking for that little extra something to propel you to the next level?
Are you a weekend warrior just looking for information on how to increase your strength, stamina, power or speed so you can outperform the competition on the field, in the cage or on the court?
Pain Cave Fitness was born out of an idea that it is possible to take the best training principles and methods from a wide variety of sports and disciplines, combine them to get the best results in the shortest amount of time possible by keeping what works and discarding what doesn't. We don't compare ourselves to other gym types, as there is no comparison. There is no "franchise", there is no finger pointing at the moon to distract you from all it's heavenly Glory…
It is being in the here and now, doing what you love while you still have the life to do it. Age doesn't matter. Sex doesn't matter. Race doesn't matter but races do…
"Absorb what is useful, Discard what is not, Add what is uniquely your own."- Guru Bruce Lee
Welcome to the new Paincavefitness.com, please pardon the mess as we are constantly updating the site. Check out the new "store" where you can get Pain Cave Fitness Gear, R.E.D. Friday Shirts and soon other downloadable content. If it's your first time here, you might not get it-but that's ok. Just stick around and wait for the Phoenix to rise from the dust.
Until then, enjoy an oldie but a goodie, and check out our other videos by the link to the right or by clicking here:

What We Do
Governor Abercrombie's New Day vision comprises three main focus areas, one of which is Transforming Government. Under the auspices of the Governor's vision, the Office of Information Management and Technology (OIMT) is leading the business and technology transformation for the State of Hawai'i. Under the leadership of Chief Information Officer Sanjeev "Sonny" Bhagowalia, OIMT, in consultation with state agencies, and after a thorough review of national best practices and lessons learned, developed the Business and Information Technology/Information Resource Management Transformation Plan (Transformation Plan) to guide the work of the state toward achieving the New Day vision.
OIMT has adopted a framework that will enable the State to translate strategic objectives into actionable projects that will deliver value to the people of Hawai'i. Guided by the New Day vision, and aligned to the State Strategic Planning Framework now in development jointly by OIMT and the Office of Planning, the Transformation Plan will be implemented by four distinct elements:
- The Business and IT/IRM Strategic Plan, which established the goals, objectives, and performance metrics for the transformation from both a business and a technology perspective;
- Enterprise Architecture (EA), which is model of the business processes, information and data, technology infrastructure, and solutions (systems) used by the State to accomplish its mission. The EA comprises as "as-is" model, a "to-be" model, and the transition and sequencing plan for getting from the former to the latter.
- Business and IT/IRM Projects, which is where plans turn into reality, investments are made, systems and infrastructure are designed, developed, and deployed, and new approaches and technology replace old.
- Management Oversight/Governance, which continually monitors the cost, schedule, risk, performance, scope, and strategic alignment of the transformation activities to ensure that the highest priorities are met with the highest quality solutions.
This Transformation Plan, when implemented, will:
- Operationalize the New Day vision into an actionable, measurable plan;
- Unify the diverse departmental approaches into one cohesive, statewide, long-range vision and framework;
- Improve productivity and career growth opportunities for the state's workforce;
- Help state agencies focus on their core competencies by eliminating the duplication of common procedures;
- Provide real value to the people of Hawai'i in their interactions with state government;
- Demonstrate willingness and capability of the executive branch of state government to better serve Hawai'i's residents, thereby enhancing the trust of state legislators, the congressional delegation, and federal agencies; and
- Realize the promise of Hawai'i to deliver world-class excellence with aloha.
Now that the Plan is in place, OIMT's focus will shift to implementation and operations. In addition to executing the business and technology transformation outlined in the Transformation Plan, OIMT will also perform the normal duties of a Chief Information Officer. These duties span a twelve CIO core competency areas, as shown in the diagram below (source: http://www.cio.gov). These twelve CIO core competency areas are:
- Leadership & Management
- Information Resources Strategy & Planning
- IT Performance Assessment
- Capital Planning & Investment
- IT Project/Program Management
- Acquisition
- Policy & Organization
- Process/Change Management
- E-Government
- Technology Management & Assessment
- Information Security and Performance
- Enterprise Architecture
The transformation of the State of Hawai'i's business and technology is a significant step toward providing the residents of Hawai'i with better services at better value. The challenges that lie before us are many, but the New Day Vision, the Strategic Planning Framework, and the Business and IT/IRM Transformation Plan provide a roadmap to a more efficient and more effective future for Hawai'i.

Thought the different flavors were great! I used quinoa instead, and mixed it with some thyme. Superb meal. I quartered my beets, roasted them, then took the skins off. I also wore plastic gloves whenever handling the beets (no pink hands!). A bit of advice for the next day, the beets will make you think you have a GI bleed-- you don't, but it will catch you off guard if you're not expecting it!

Thanks for the heads up Doug. I really hope this helps us pull off a win at SC State.

We really need a win. If we can pull one out either in this game or the USA one, we should be on track for a winning season. Then again at this point anything can happen.

3-3 and play a few good schools and a ton of crap schools from the Eastern seaboard. Howard, North Carolina A&T, and powerhouses like Bethune-Cookman. Never heard of them? The schools are in a league with small historically black college. If a school like GSU with 30,000 plus can't beat this team then who knows about the program. Looks like Bill Curry and Andy Reid will soon be broadcasting together.

by the way…. Doug I enjoy reading your updates from up here. Big CAA fan. You seem to keep your chin up in reporting on this trainwreck. Good reporting and I hope it turns around but it has to be tough finding anything positive to write about now– there is always next year
October 11th, 2011
7:03 am
Also helpful to get these updates here in Kentucky. I don't think we can really judge GSU's program until they reach the 5 year mark. We should see steady progress and become competitive in the CAA by the fifth year. I don't know if Curry is the right coach, but GSU should be a successful program.

I appreciate the coverage you provide…. I just wish the panthers could play better.
Very difficult to remain patient.

Trainwreck is a bit of a stretch, guys. We're not doing so hot on the field, but that's not all it's about. The program is not a trainwreck in the second year of its existence. It's going through some growing pains.

I was at the GSU basketball tip off breakfast yesterday and discussed the football season with another supporter. A big supporter. He said, you know mike, with the tough times that our football team is going through, this is the time we need to embrace our football program. I thought he was right on the money with that. We don't kill our wounded, and we don't eat our dead. Let's stand with our team and be be true supporters. Thanx for the coverage Doug….btw, CRH is an absolute hoot! Not to gloss over fb, but bb is gonna be a lot of fun this year!

I'm extremely bullish on the future of Facebook, however I think there is a strong case for shorting their shares at the IPO. The reason why is very simple. Look at what has happened to the shares of the companies in their peer group since their IPO's:
LinkedIn (LNKD)
Pandora (P)
Groupon (GRPN)
Zynga (ZNGA)
You would have made money shorting each of these stocks on their first day and each has traded at below their opening price multiple times since their IPO.
If you had planned to invest in any of them, there was no rush to do so. There is no reason to believe Facebook will be any different. If hype and demand gives the stock a quick pop, that profit will go to those lucky enough to be able to buy pre-IPO shares. That is what happened to LNKD. However anybody who bought shares at the open would have gotten burnt badly after the stock immediately tanked.
FB will very likely be a similar story. Shorting it at the open is almost certain to result in a profit at some point in the hours, days, weeks or months that follow. Likewise, buying shares on the first day will likely not be the optimal time to do so if you plan to be a long term investor.
Disclosure: I am a Zynga shareholder and plan to buy shares of Facebook at some point after their IPO. I am not and have never been a shareholder of Pandora, Groupon or LinkedIn.

Off the Beaten Path: Quieter Alternatives in Mexico
Great weather, beautiful beaches, and cheap food are what Mexico is known for, but throngs of tourists have turned many classic destinations into anything but a relaxing escape. To experience a more genuine Mexico without seeing gringos at every turn, look to these quieter alternatives on the coast. These towns not only offer a feeling of remoteness, but they're also close enough to major airports and cities that you won't be completely lacking in conveniences.
Instead of Cabo San Lucas... head to Todos Santos. Cabo is probably best known for two things: timeshares and Cabo Wabo. If you're not there for a bachelor/ette party, you'll find solace in a tiny town of 5,000 just an hour north. While Todos Santos is starting to see more tourist activity these days, it still isn't the circus that its southern neighbor is. Situated in the foothills of the Sierra de La Laguna Mountains, Todos has a slow and easy vibe with its restored colonial buildings, colorful streets, boutique hotels, handicraft shops and art galleries, and many uncrowded beaches within 15 minutes of the village center. You'll also find the famous Hotel California here (and while it captures the essence of the classic Eagles song, it actually isn't the subject). Visit the Todos Santos tourism site to plan your trip.
Instead of Puerto Vallarta... head to San Pancho. Officially known as San Francisco, but affectionately called by its original name San Pancho by the locals, this fishing village is only an hour north of Puerto Vallarta but feels much farther. With a full-time population of just 1,600, it's what Puerto Vallarta was like before tourism took over. Situated between the jungle and the coast, San Pancho offers white sandy beaches, excellent surf, and a small-town atmosphere free of highrises. You'll find plenty of vacation rentals on VRBO, but if you want to be pampered at an all-inclusive resort, Costa Azul offers adventure packages for surfers, divers, kayakers, and hikers. Find out more on the San Pancho community website.
Instead of Cancun... head to Tulum. When it comes to the Riviera Maya, most people flock to Cancun and merely make day trips to Tulum, site of the popular Mayan ruins. But have you ever considered actually staying in Tulum? The seaside town is emerging as a hip and bohemian destination for travelers who crave easy access (transportation throughout town is best on foot or by bike) and soul-soothing services (yoga retreats and tours of the Sian Ka'an biosphere reserve are popular here). Away from the trendy downtown area full of amenity-rich resorts, you'll find boutique hotels and thatched-roof bungalows with no phone lines. Amansala is the perfect place to get away from it all, and you can find more on the Tulum tourism site.
(Images: 1. Hotel California; 2. Costa Azul Adventure Resort; 3. Amansala Eco Chic Resort)

Great post! I'd love to see more like this.
Tulum and Xel-Ha were a day trip for me from Playa del Carmen and totally worth the trip. Seriously the most beautiful part of my trip to Mexico. I'd definitely consider staying there.
My family bought a home in Todos Santos about 10 years ago. It is one of the most beautiful and relaxing places I've ever been.
I highly recommend going to the first little shrimp taco stand off of the main highway on Calle Huerto. They run out quickly so go early. I am not exaggerating when I say they are the most amazing tacos ever. Also check out Playa Las Palmas, to get the the beach, which is beautiful and never crowded, you have a 5 minute walk through a palm tree grove. Hacienda Todos Los Santos is a gorgeous hotel that is not as touristy as Hotel California.
I heartily second the Tulum recommendation! My husband and I stayed at Don Diego de la Selva when we were there. As the cab drove us there we were thinking, oh dear, what have we gotten ourselves into?" -- until we pulled up to this sweet, charming and beautiful little hotel completely off the beaten path. Charles, the owner, was a fabulous host whose company and recommendations for activities never let us down. The food was amazing, too.
The Little Mexican Cooking School in Puerto Morelos is also worth checking out. The woman who runs the place, Catriona, is wonderful too.
San Pancho is amazing. We stayed there on our honeymoon in 2004 and vowed to retire there in a tiny house on the side of the mountain. We stayed at a gorgeous BnB called Casa Obelisco http://www.casaobelisco.com/Welcome.html
It was very affordable, and the owners know everyone in town. Very nice people and great food for breakfast!

As many people have said, the boss is kinda not fun anymore.
Yes, him dazing the tank sucked and could wipe you, but not even noticing the adds, the maidens barely annoying you and the disarm/whirlwind being such a joke that an enhance shaman didn't even need to use a cooldown and was above 50% (and they tend to die in WWs if they don't use them) was sad. I mean we did him 5 times in less time than twice last year.
My only guess is that Direbrew drank so much over the last year that he's in a perpetual state of inebriation and it has hurt his abilities.
