The job outlook for appliance technicians is very good, especially for those with the right training. There is a serious shortage of skilled appliance service technicians. LMC graduates work for repair companies, appliance manufacturers and retailers. Many have advanced to management positions, moved into sales and marketing or started their own appliance repair business.
Home appliance repairer: $11.85 - $30.12/hour
HVAC Mechanic and Installer: $14.73 - $36.79/hour
There are two options for the Certificate of Achievement. The Technician I track requires completion of 18.5 units of coursework, with most of the classes taught in the evening. Students will be prepared for positions as entry level appliance installers for shop tech trainees. Technician II track is more robust and requires completion of 36 units and is mainly taught during the day. These students will be ready for a rapid transition from entry level to field technician level jobs.
The Associate of Science Degree requires completion of 18.5 to 36 units of coursework within the major, plus completion of LMC's general education and additional electives to total 60 units.

Louise Redknapp's fresh flush
Louise Redknapp prefers to use a cream blush
Despite the demands of young children and a busy career Louise Redknapp never fails to look gorgeous.
Back on our screens this autumn presenting reality series Farmer Wants A Wife, we reckon there's more to her rosy cheeks than just the country air.
So what's Louise's secret?
'I use a creamy blush to get a natural glow - most powders don't give off the same gleam.'
Bobbi Brown Sheer Colour Cheek Tint in Sheer Pink, £16, should do the trick.

Cee-Lo Green has evolved past the rest of us mere mortals. He is now a franchise in human form.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the singer and judge for The Voice is close to developing a sitcom based on his life and experiences. Having inked a first-look deal with NBC, Green is executive producing the so-far-unnamed project alongside Everybody Hates Chris co-creator Ali Leroi and Happy Madison producer Doug Robinson. The family-friendly show will reportedly focus on how Green is able to balance the various aspects of his life, from family man to musician. Between working on his own show, working on another show, singing, performing, and handling his philanthropic interests, one has to wonder where Cee-Lo makes time to, I don't know, eat a sandwich or get some sleep.

PaleyFest 2014: Executive Producers and Cast Talk THE ORIGINALS, Killing Off Characters, VAMPIRE DIARIES Crossovers, the Season Finale, and More
by Christina Radish Posted 180 days ago
For more than 30 years, PaleyFest has held panel sessions and screenings that connect the worldwide community of television fans with the casts and creators of their favorite TV shows. One of the evenings was to celebrate the popular CW series The Originals, which has already been picked up for Season 2. Collider was there to catch up with the cast and creative team, and we've compiled highlights from both the red carpet and panel.
During the evening, executive producers Julie Plec and Michael Narducci, as well as actors Joseph Morgan ("Klaus Mikaelson"), Daniel Gillies ("Elijah Mikaelson"), Claire Holt ("Rebekah Mikaelson"), Phoebe Tonkin ("Hayley") and Danielle Campbell ("Davina"), talked about how the actors find out they're going to get killed off, what's to come for their characters, how the show is creeping towards the redemption of Klaus and the undoing of Elijah, what led to Rebekah's hopefully temporary exit, whether the biggest challenge for Elijah will be trying to keep peace with his family or trying to keep peace with the supernatural community, why fans love the Elijah-Hayley relationship, possible cross-overs with The Vampire Diaries, what things are like for Marcel (Charles Michael Davis) in exile, and what fans can expect from the finale. Check out what they had to say after the jump.

Only after the last tree has been cut down;
Only after the last fish has been caught;
Only after the last river has been poisoned;
Only then will you realize that money cannot be eaten.
– Cree Indian Prophecy
Learn to truly appreciate nature and combat stress at the same time.
Take a walk! I know, it sounds simple but the next time you take a walk, try reaaaally paying attention to nature. Listen to the birds singing a beautiful melody (and keep listening for his call to be returned by another bird). Stop to look at beautiful flowers. Really look at it close up where you can see the fine, fine detail. Check out a leaf and study the veins bringing life to it. Run your hand along the cracked bark of a tree. Don't dodge the spider web, instead look closely at the work that has been done. Intricate weaving and natural artwork. And, by all means, take the earbuds from your ears and turn off the Ipod. Just enjoy the sights and sounds. Listen to the birds, your feet hitting the pavement, a frog in the distance, a squirrel chattering. Feel the breeze and the warm sunshine.
Enjoy the sunrise or sunset! Take note of the beautiful colors whether vibrant or pastel. Gaze at the clouds or stars. Delight in the moon still in the morning sky or making it's appearance at dusk.
Dance in the rain! Listen to the soft drops or enjoy a pounding thunderstorm.
Plant a garden! Whether it's a big one, or small…in a container or in your yard…maintaining a garden is a beautiful stress buster and a cheap source of organic produce!
Get a fire pit! As the heat of the day winds down, throw a few logs in and finish off your day around a beautiful glowing fire. Sit back and look up at the shining stars, the moon and the black sky. Let your mind go blank and merely enjoy the silence.
Feed the birds! Create a space in your yard that will attract beauty every day. Birds bring beauty to your ears and eyes. Allow yourself to just listen and watch. Hang a bird feeder and fill it with songbird seeds or a hummingbird feeder with sugar and water. Planting a few plants that attract birds will not only guide them to your feeder but will bring additional beauty into your space.
Bring your yoga mat outside and enjoy the warmth and gentle breeze, or meditate outside!
Let the sun shine in! In to your skin! We need vitamin D to survive. The best source is from good old fashioned natural sunshine! Fifteen to twenty minutes daily in the sunshine will allow your body to make Vitamin D.
Home bound? Can't get outside?
Fill your house with real plants. They help to naturally clean the air and they are beautiful to look at…and theraputic to tend.
Bring nature inside! Fill a vase with small branches. Fill a jar with pebbles and sand. Place a flowering plant or cactus in each room. Arrange pine cones in a wicker basket or sea shells in a bowl.
Listen to nature on a CD. There are so many CD's with the sounds of nature. If you cannot go outside, get one of these and just relax and enjoy the beauty of nature from a CD.
Consider one of those water fountains for your home. They are small and relatively inexpensive but can bring hours of stress reduction! Turn off the radio or tv and just listen to the sound of running water.

Cirincione Recommends New Nuclear Nonproliferation Strategy at NJITs Technology and Society Forum
February 08, 2005
The U.S. has followed a policy of eliminating regimes that it believes either possess or seek to possess weapons of mass destruction, rather than eliminating the weapons, Joseph Cirincione told the more than 200 faculty, staff, students and friends of NJIT who attended the first of the Spring 2005 Technology and Society Forum series yesterday. Cirincione, an internationally-known weapons of mass destruction expert and a director at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, recommended a new, efficient strategy of universal compliance. "The answer is not to enforce the rules for some, but to enforce the rules for all," he said. >>

Nokia launches flagship Lumia 800 Windows Phone w/8mp Zeiss 28mm f2 camera
After the iPhone 4S and the Galaxy Nexus smartphone camera announcement-excitement, it is time for the Nokia-Microsoft alliance to grab the spotlight with their new wave of juicy mangos. Who wants a mango ice cream sandwich? ;-)
You can find non-stop coverage of these at the Techmeme (search for "Nokia" if reading at a later time, or look at the archives under October-26-2011). Of camera interest:
+ the flagship is the Lumia 800 (think N9 but Windows-Phone-fied), with a 8mp sensor and 28mm f2 Carl Zeiss lens, 720p 30fps video, 3.7" AMOLED 800x480 display, etc [click on "Photography" to see the camera/imaging specs at Nokia]
+ hands-on at This Is My Verge
+ press release at dpreview
+ why no front-facing cameras asks/answers Microsoft outsider-insider Mary-Jo Foley at ZDNet
+ more at Quesabesde, ephotozine, et al
+ on the R&D front, CNet has spotted a flexible stretchable prototype/R&D device...
Random R&D Idea
... Maybe if this stretchable gadgets idea is successful, could this technology eventually move to cameras? How about implementing zoom or focus by stretching flexible/bendable parts of the camera? [other than the lens that is!]. Think of holding one of the current superzoom fixed lens cameras of today with both hands. Instead of pressing zoom buttons or reaching for the lens, you instead zoom by stretching the camera body outwards to zoom out and stretch it inwards to zoom in ;-) Not necessarily stretch it to the point of deforming it, but perhaps the device can recognize the gestures? This segment is brought to you by Noisy R&D Labs ;-)

Arik Takes Delivery of Two CRJ900s
Arik Air, Nigeria's new airline, took a solid step forward last month when it accepted delivery of the first two Bombardier CRJ900 regional jets in Africa in ceremonies at the Canadian manufacturer's assembly plant in Mirabel, Quebec. Arik Air took over the defunct Nigeria Airways center in Lagos in April and is rebuilding the facilities there as its base. The two new aircraft are configured for 75 passengers and are the first of four CRJ900s Arik has ordered. The third airplane is scheduled for delivery in August, with the fourth to follow in January. The two new CRJs will begin service on domestic routes within the country in August, along with three previously owned 50-passenger CRJ200s and two former United Airlines Boeing 737-200s. Arik plans to begin international operations late next year.

Over the course of the semester, TJ Fisher (Class of 2013) has been conducting research at the Orange County Regional History Center on Central Florida during World War II to create a presentation that will be added to the Center's existing exhibit.
Forty-three years after beginning his rewarding teaching career at Rollins College, Professor of History Barry Levis still gets excited about his classes and his students. Part of that excitement comes from setting high standards for his students and, as a result, seeing them grow over the course of a semester. Upon completing one of his courses, students gain life-long study skills and practical application of the material that prepare them for future endeavors and lead many students to enroll in multiple classes with him.
As part of those courses for many years now, Levis' students have participated in community engagement projects, including working with organizations such as Planned Parenthood and volunteering at anti-abortion clinics in order to gain first-hand knowledge of the different ideologies that exist in today's society.
Currently, Levis' class Decade of Decision: England and America in 1760—an introductory history course that explores the causes of the growing rift between America and Britain that led to the American Revolution—is engaged in service at one of five historical centers across Central Florida. Each student in the class has to complete 20 hours of service at Orange County Regional History Center, Winter Park Public Library, Winter Park Historical Association, Maitland Historical Society or Olin Library. During their time at the centers, students have been working with primary sources and learning archival skills, such as how to catalogue documents and handle artifacts.
"Most history courses are on national history rather than local history, so this is a great opportunity for students that doesn't arise often," said Levis. "Each one of these little communities in Central Florida is full of history that most students have never been exposed to, so it's great for them to learn about the history and people of Winter Park and to work with first-hand sources that help them piece together the stories of these communities."
One student in the class, TJ Fisher (Class of 2013), an anthropology and history double major, has been working very closely with the Orange County Regional History Center. Over the course of the semester, she has been conducting research on Central Florida during World War II to create a presentation that will be added to the Center's existing exhibit on World War II. Fisher discovered that finding the time to do the research has been difficult due to her large course load and active participation on campus, but one of her greater challenges has been actually learning how to work with primary sources.
"It's been a long process of learning how to use primary documents in order to construct a presentation," said Fisher. "In the past, I have always done research from encyclopedias and articles on subjects, not by actually looking at primary sources. That part has been a challenge, but the biggest reward has been dealing with those kinds of challenges because they will make me better prepared for a future in history."
Fisher believes that she and some of her classmates will definitely continue with their service in the future, especially those who wish to pursue careers in the history field.
"The project has been an incomparable experience," said Fisher. "I'm learning a lot that I wouldn't necessarily be able to learn in the classroom or on the Rollins campus."
Levis is proud of his students for the work that they've completed thus far and believes that a lot of really good things have come from this particular project.
"Rollins has a strong emphasis on service-learning, so this is something I intend to continue as part of my courses in the future," said Levis. "I hope that students really understand the benefit of getting involved and see that even a little bit of their time can not only make a difference in the community, but also increase their knowledge and encourage their exploration of new opportunities."

Good, easy recipe. Felt like it needed a little added spice, maybe some nutmeg and a pinch of cayenne next time. My 4 yr old LOVED it though
Carrot-Parsnip Soup with Parsnip Chips
cpalma Posted: 01/17/11

Really good soup- I used parsnips and half orange/half white carrots b/c that's what I had from the farmer's market. I also added cinnamon, cumin, curry and a pinch of cloves to give it a little more flavor (oh and lots of salt!) I think the parsnip chips really round out the soup and give it that something extra.

Incredible soup. So creamy but with no milk! Perfect for a cold winter day.
ACardy Posted: 01/19/11
This was delicious! It was very creamy, we couldn't believe it was so low cal! A definite make again!
aneresRN Posted: 01/12/11
I made this recipe for my husband and I. It was delicious! I will definitely be making it again, no changes.

Excellent soup. Easy to make and very hearty!
PinkTeaCup Posted: 01/12/11
Loved it! It was perfect as is, the unexpected combination of carrots and parsnips giving it a sweet, satisfying flavor. I made it for dinner, and will be bringing it to work for lunch with a salad.

2 stars = "Has potential" is perfect for this recipe. I found this recipe after getting parsnips in our CSA and having no idea what to do with them. We thought the recipe as given is rather blah - not a lot of character, but - as I said - lots of potential. I'm not one of those people who will rate something 5 stars and then list all the changes I made to it. So, with that in mind, I'll go on to tell you all how we doctored this up. This is a good base for a great soup - if we had not added to it, we'd never have made it again. But now this is a repeat recipe in our house. We added three things to this recipe: Thai red curry paste (to taste - be careful, because that stuff packs a punch!), coconut milk (one can), and powdered ginger (again, to taste - probably about 2 teaspoons). Make it as spicy as you like. Tonight we had it with warm sourdough bread. Lovely.
mandi541 Posted: 01/16/12
I followed the recipe, and found the soup to be pretty bland and boring. We added some spices to make it edible... ginger was a good choice.... but I won't be making this again.
karenfar Posted: 04/01/13Huntington Beach, CA
I made this soup on Easter for family - I did not like it at all and the 'chips' were a disappointment! Some people ate all theirs and thought it was fine. Too thick and not a lot of flavor in IMHO.

Live Painting with Retna, Revok, Saber & EwokJuxtapoz // Friday, 05 Sep 2008
Some of the most talented graffiti artists in the game will be painting live today, Saturday September 6th from noon to 4pm at Karmaloop in Boston.
Boost Mobile is sending members of their artist collaboration, infamous graffiti artists Retna, Saber (work shown) Revok, and Ewok (Juxtapoz #78) to give a live painting demonstration at the front of the Newbury Street store.
The four artists will be giving away and signing posters during the event. In addition, there will be a reception and the DJ stylings of Red Foxx. We're already on our way, so hurry up and catch these legends in action.
When Los Angeles-based graffiti artist RETNA's work first appeared in the mid-nineties, what made it stand apart from the rest was its unique layering. His color palette was so intricate, so carefully chosen, his pieces often looked to have been daubed on with a paint-brush. Quite the achievement when you consider he was painting on walls, trains, bridges, and freeway overpasses in the black of night.
Frequently inspired by images of females found in magazines and corporate advertisements, RETNA is especially known for embellishing existing fashion advertisements overlaying a classic style that recalls Mayan and Egyptian hieroglyphs, and even Byzantine religious mosaics.
Since first making his name in 1997, RETNA has found himself in popular demand, especially in the music world. R&B artist Usher is a big fan (RETNA-fied paintings of Marvin Gaye, Sade, and Miles Davis hang in his home.) RETNA's art has also appeared in pop videos for Kylie Minogue and Will Smith, and he appeared alongside Metallica at the American Music Awards, creating one of his signature pieces live on stage. "Looking at pop culture and adapting it to a more classical style is what I am known for as an artist," he says. "It's something I learned to do on the street and I'm proud to now incorporate in my paintings." More at www.digitalretna.com
The easiest way to get noticed in the graffiti world is to paint high-profile, hard-to-reach spots. But the attention doesn't always mean respect: simply climbing a building and painting it means next to nothing if it's not done well. Los Angeles-based graffiti artist REVOK has been painting mind-blowing, seemingly inaccessible spots, with grace and style, around the country for 15-plus years now. Subsequently, tales of his exploits have reached folklore status within the graffiti world.
REVOK's distinctive style has influenced countless artists, who have done their best to emulate his handiwork, forcing him to get more creative and broaden his stylistic repertoire. He has reinvented the alphabet several times over, giving his letters life and so much movement that they seem to jump off the wall.
This past summer, REVOK spread his name throughout Europe, appearing at numerous festivals to paint for fans and onlookers. Now European writers can join their American counterparts in admiration of REVOK's unparalleled talents. REVOK's creative skills are also becoming recognized and demanded for in the marketing world. For more information, visit www.revok1.com
For over 15 years SABER has used the urban landscape as a monumental canvas influencing local street art styles the world over. In 1997 SABER painted the world's largest street art piece on the cement banks of the Los Angeles River. Measuring 250' x 55' and using 125 gallons of latex roller paint, this massive expression of raw street power is considered one of the most important pieces in street art history.
Prolific and diverse, SABER's work extends beyond his street art by catching the attention of the fine art world with his hyper real oil paintings of cityscapes. SABER is also noted for his ability to translate his work into three-dimensional sculptures collected by art aficionados and those that are part of the urban culture scene. SABER's work has contributed to the advancement of contemporary street art as a legitimate art form extending its reach far beyond its primary roots. For more information, visit www.saberone.com
Born in Memphis, Tennessee and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin for most of his life, George joined RVCA in 2003. In 2004 he relocated to Costa Mesa, where he now lives and works, officially becoming a California transplant.
His artwork is a tedious mixture of hand and computer illustrations, where he tries to create a balance between classic and modern styles in his art. His pastimes include dining out with friends (especially Indian cuisine) watching the Packers and watching the box set of the Leprechaun movies.

Watch The Hangover Part 3 Online Free Full | Watch The Hangover Part 3 Full Movie Streaming It's a movie you're going to want to go see, and a movie you won't mind spending a few bucks on. If you're easily offended, you'll hate this movie (even I thought they pushed the limit on a few of their jokes in this one, but hey, it's an adult comedy). I thought the near 2 hour run time felt much shorter and I thought the acting was great.
Watch The Hangover Part 3 (2013) Online for Free Full Streaming The characters themselves were an interesting change. I didn't like that again Doug was not included in the majority of the movie. I did however enjoy John Goodman's character, Marshall. As always the banter between the three main characters was humorous, but the humor was the same as the previous movies.
watch The Hangover Part 3 Online Streaming Full Movie Online Free In specific parts of the movies, such as Chow escaping from prison in the beginning of the movie in the pretty much the exact same way as in Shawshank Redemption, it was a bit too copied. I enjoyed the reference but at the same time, it reminded me of the way that the Scary Movies reference movies, and because I don't like those movies, I didn't like that style.
The Hangover Part 3 Watch Online Free Movie I honestly didn't laugh even once until after the conclusion. Even then, a few minor chuckles at best (the pants/"pornographie" actions and comment) and the after credits stuff is mildly amusing. This was a very strange way to end a trilogy that started with what I found to be comedy gold.

Looking out from the press box at Utah State's packed student section an hour before kickoff, Utah athletic director Chris Hill said he understands what the rivalry means to fans and that many would like to see it continue, especially after the buildup Friday's game enjoyed.
Unfortunately for the traditionalists out there, he insists he just can't see how rivalries with Utah State and BYU can continue uninterrupted, regardless of their popularity.
|Join the Discussion
|Post a Comment
Just as important, he said, is building Utah's national brand.
"A recruit might see Oregon playing Tennessee, then see us playing Michigan and go, 'Oh, OK. Utah is there.' "
Hill said he knows some observers might think Utah is "getting too big for its britches" by failing to schedule Utah State and BYU, but that the nine-game Pac-12 schedule continues to tie his hands.
"An eight-game schedule would give us more freedom to do some things," he said.
The Utes are in the midst of scheduling both Weber State and Southern Utah for future games, but Hill understands those future meetings won't appease fans from the other in-state schools. "I know we have longtime rivalries and we'd like an answer, but I can't come up with one," he said.
Stepping up
In the first half of Utah State's battle with Utah, Aggies safety Clayton Christensen made the biggest play of his young career.
Christensen accounted for the Aggies' first touchdown at Romney Stadium, recovering a Zach Vigil blocked punt in the end zone, and setting the tone for what was a dominant first half by Utah State.
Shaky ball-handling
The Utes were bragging about their special teams play in the season opener. On Friday, it was subpar play that was earning the group attention. Besides the blocked punt in the first quarter that was returned for the touchdown, a botched kickoff return in the second quarter left the Utes on their own 4-yard line.
Meanwhile, the Aggies had three fumbles in the first half but were lucky to not lose any of them.

I followed the recipe as written, except that I substituted blueberries for the currants. I find them to be very plain without much flavor.
I soaked the oats in buttermilk overnight before making the muffins in the morning. And then I only baked half of the batter - I left the rest in the fridge for a week and made the rest of them the following week. Both batches were great! I didn't think they were too sweet at all. Plus, the muffins stayed very fresh-tasting for several days - next time I will probably just bake the whole batch at once. Oh- and I added fresh blueberries instead of the currants.I thought they were terrific and I really liked that you don't need to use a mixer at all because you melt the butter.
I thought these were excellent. I was looking for a healthier muffin that my son could take to school for breakfast or break and these fit the bill. I did make a few substitutions to cut down on the fat. I wanted to use applesauce, but didn't have any, so took a lunch cup of diced pears, drained the juice and put them in mini blender to make a pear sauce. That made 1/4 c, and I opted for 1/4 c canola oil instead of the butter to make it a little more heart healthy.. (I would've used coconut oil if I had some on hand, much healthier option.) Used golden raisins and some chopped walnuts and about 1/2 tsp cinnamon. Then I sprinkled cinnamon sugar on top of the muffin prior to baking. I would've liked to add some flax meal and chopped apple or shredded carrot to the muffin, but didn't think about it in time. Also, the buttermilk and oat mixture sat in my refrigerator for about 3 days because I ran out of time on baking day and had to put it off til the week-end. Still fabulous! Also, my electronic panel on oven is malfunctioning and I couldn't get any temp in the 400's, so baked these at 375 for 23 minutes. These are very moist, which makes me think you could possibly cut down on the oil/butter further by increasing the fruit sauce. Also if you add a sweet chopped apple, you might be able to reduce the sugar as well. If you or your children don't have a sweet tooth, you might get away w/reducing the sugar a bit w/o adding fruit, but I have to be realistic and my son might not eat them if they're not somewhat sweet. The fruit sauce increases the sweetness, as would chopped apple. This is a keeper and could be modified in many different ways to suit your preferences.
I did not have butter, so subbed 1/4 cup grapeseed oil and 1/4 cup applesauce, flavored with 1/2 tsp ground ginger, 1 tsp orange zest and 1/2 cup diced dried apricots. Sugar was right on- not too sweet - and crumb was moist. Baked as mini muffins for 12 mins. Next time, will try to have butter on hand. Basic recipe is a keeper.
Just remade adding 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tsp cinnamon, zest of large deep colored orange, 1/2 cp each dried canberries and pecans. No sugar on top. 375 (no higher) for 20 min. Over the top
Terrific muffin! Subbed dried cranberries for the currents and added 1/2 cp chp pecans. Baked at 375 for 20 minutes, perfect. My oven temperature is on the money so I think 400 is way too hot. Interesting sidenote, I sprinkled raw sugar on the top of all but one before baking and while the raw sugar looked great, the naked one rose much higher
I made too many changes to this recipe to review it - however, I would like to ask why Epicurious has labelled this a "healthy" and kid-friendly recipe. This is a delicious recipe for a decadent treat, and shouldn't be confused for anything else.
These are great! I added fresh blueberries instead of currants and topped the muffins with a mix of the juice of a handful of blueberries and confectioners sugar. Really good, fairly healthy, pretty and my 4 year old loves them...he's on his second as I'm writing this.
Ok, I read a lot of the reviews and these muffins were SO GOOD with the changes I ended up making. I used all whole wheat flour, half butter and half applesauce, added 1/2 tsp vanilla, 1 1/2 cups chopped granny smith apples, and 1/2 cup chopped pecans. I also used baking cups and baked them at 325. The muffins didn't stick at all. Oh and I sprinkled some turbinado sugar on top. I think they're absolutely perfect this way.
I wish I had read the reviews first as I would have cut down the butter a bit - no worries though - Hubby inhaled one, happily proclaiming it 'awesome'. He is not usually much of a fan of muffins. I did have to sub the buttermilk with soured 1% and I added a mashed banana that needed to go. Chocolate chips instead of currents this time, next time cranberries. Really versatile!

On the Set: Ludacris ft. Trey Songz – Sex Room
Looks like Luda is turning it up a notch, by slowing it down for his next single off of Battle of the Sexes…"Sex Room." To me, this is actually a stand out track off of the album, even though it may not be groundbreaking. Trey Songz does it justice. Play this for your girl. Thanks to Luda on twitter for the pics.

My boyfriend and I wanted to visit NYC, but I was on a tight budget. I saw this place listed on travel websites and after some protest from him, finally convinced him that this B&B in Brooklyn would be a good choice. He was pleasantly surprised. We were flying standby and informed Michelle by email that we would be arriving early and were hoping to get there before the check in time. She and Sandra were very accommodating, even when we were bumped from one flight, and delayed due to weather on our connecting flight and came 2 hours after we told them we would be there. Sandra gave us a short tour of the house and we were left to make ourselves at home. The house is absolutely beautiful. Our sunny room was on the top floor and the bathroom we shared was bigger than my bedroom at home. Our concern with sharing a bathroom was a non issue (although I asume it is because we are late sleepers and everybody was out and about before we got up). The kitchenette was sunny and clean and the fridge was stocked with bottled water. We sadly never tried the breakfast (the review forced me to rate it anyway so I gave it 4 stars so it wouldn't drag down their review score). The area is a bit of a subway ride to the city, but the price is worth it. It definitely beats the cookie cutter, get'em in and out feel of a typical large hotel. We were even allowed to leave our suitcases downstairs free of charge after we checked out so we could get one last day in the city before our late evening flight. We never needed help with directions since I know the area and Manhattan very well, but I can see some reviewers' point when they say it's hard to find someone who works there to help you. But if you have any idea of what you want out of your trip and you have a smart phone you'll be fine. Just have a plan. Overall we will definitely be back. Can't wait!!!

(There was no breakfast. I would have put "N/A" instead of one star.)

My room was clean, comfortable, cozy and right next to the kitchen and bathroom facilities. I slept so peacefully and soundly! It truly was like "Home away from home". Meeting Michelle & Zenobia (partners in business) was extraordinary! Both were extremely kind and accomodating. This was truly a "blessing" since it had been many years since I'd travelled or been to NYC. I was very impressed and inspired by both of these entrepreneurs. A special "Thanks!" also to Blaine who helped me find the most "divine" vintage "after-five" gown in their boutique for an outrageous price of $10.00!! I am looking forward to my next stay at Lefferts B&B!

I stayed in the ebony room, the one person room. The b&b is so cute and definitely made me feel at home. The neighborhood is very cute, and is nice to return to after a full day in hectic manhattan. Very close to a subway, and quiet streets at night.

We had a good stay at this inn. The first room they put us in, the only one on the first floor, was too loud - immediately above the family residence, with noise coming through from below that awakened us, and a door that only locked from the inside and was hard to maneuver into place for locking. The host graciously moved us to a nice room on the 3rd floor, which suited us well - one floor above a small kitchen stocked with bottled water, cereal and a few odds and ends, and on the same floor as the bathroom, which was spacious, clean, and well stocked. The breakfasts (an additonal charge) were outstanding and made a great launch for our two days. The owners are new to having the inn, and there were some small issues that reflected inexperience. The only one worth mentioning was that we forgot to provide our keys and they forgot to ask for them, resulting in us finding them once we were home, and them calling to request we mail them back - a bit of an inconvenience.

I plan on returning several times during the years to come.
4,6 sur novembre 15, 2012
Very enjoyable stay - clean, well maintained and friendly. Easy commute into Manhattan, just five minutes walk to the subway and felt perfectly safe walking the route, even late at night. I didn't use it but looks like there's also an easy route by subway from JFK. The only thing that would have enhanced would have been to have had some sort of surface in my room that I could work at - just a simple desk and chair. This wasn't available but Michelle was very responsive when I suggested it so I suspect that future guests will have the benefit of a writing surface in the not too distant future. Would definitely stay again. Note to administrators of this site - please don't make it so a person has to rate every line - as Lefferts Gardens Residence offers optional breakfast which I didn't take, so you are forcing me to rate something that I didn't use.

There was no dining, so there is no dining to rate. This B&B is a typical one with a historical atmosphere. Very Nice indeed
Réponse du propriétaire
I am sorry that your overall view was a unpleasant one because one of my goal is to provide excellent services and a clean atmospbere to all guests. Next time if you visit us again , join us in the lovely dining room and have breakfast with us. Thanks

Lovely home, nice street, walk to Subway was easy but the area is low-income shops, not 5th avenue. Best part were the beds--super comfortable and cozy. Owner greeted us daily and was wonderful. Nice little shared kitchen to keep drinks or even to do a little cooking. I would suggest they install a light right outside the front door for late evening returns. Will use again next time I come to NYC.
3,4 sur octobre 23, 2012
We stayed for 4 nights at the Lefferts Gardens Residence and we had a very good time there. Michelle is a very nice and friendly host. The house is in a quiet, lovely road. The room was very clean, well furbished and very comfortable. You have to share the bathroom with other guests - but that was no problem. We havent tried the Breakfast, due we were eating in the city, but the smell in the morning was delicious! The Metro-Station "Prospect Park" ist just a few minutes walk away and provides a good connection to the city. There are many shops around the place so you can find everything you need. We will stay there again, when we go to NY the next time!

This article argues that digital games and school-based literacy practices have much more in common than is reported in the research literature. We describe the role digital game paratexts – ancillary print and multimodal texts about digital games – can play in connecting pupils' gaming literacy practices to 'traditional' school-based literacies still needed for academic success. By including the reading, writing and design of digital game paratexts in the literacy curriculum, teachers can actively and legitimately include digital games in their literacy instruction. To help teachers understand pupils' gaming literacy practices in relation to other forms of literacy practices, we present a heuristic for understanding gaming (HUG) literacy. We argue our heuristic can be used for effective teacher professional development because it assists teachers in identifying the elements of gameplay that would be appropriate for the demands of the literacy curriculum. The heuristic traces gaming literacy across the quadrants of actions, designs, situations and systems to provide teachers and practitioners with a knowledge of gameplay and a metalanguage for talking about digital games. We argue this knowledge will assist them in capitalising on pupils' existing gaming literacy by connecting their out-of-school gaming literacy practices to the literacy and English curriculum.

This is my friend Jordan Flynn. Her last day of school is tomorrow, and she's leaving to New York the 30th, for a bone marrow transplant because they found pre leukemia cells in her bones. She'll be there for a couple of months, and she'll be schooled there too. She's the strongest girl ever wow I love her so much honestly. So like almost everyone in my school dyed some of their hair pink for her, to show they care and stuff and she's so tiny and small and brave. I love her so much and i just want to get this out there. So people can help pray for her and stuff. She's always been there for me and her friends and I just hope she'll be okay. She's so sweet and fearless, she even dyed her whole head pink, since her hair will be gone :c So hopefully you'll see this and reblog for more people to know about it and get more prayers in there. She's the most beautiful girl ever and I hope for the best for her and her family!
that is so sad, seriously, i hope she gets better and i wish her so much luck xxxx
thank you omg <33

(08/01/12) - It's summer vacation, but that's not stopping some Saginaw County kids from brushing up on their math skills.
SVSU is partnering with Ruben Daniels Middle School in a six-week program, designed to help students improve their math performance.
About 120 middle school kids are going through this program, and they say it will give them a huge leg up when the school year starts.
"The teachers in class don't have enough time to explain it like the students do," said D'Nesha Peete, an eighth grader going through the summer program.
She used to be a C student in math, but the new summer learning program is giving her new confidence.
"They didn't stop teaching us until we got it right and they made sure we knew it, we knew the math," she said.
Saginaw high school teens have been mentoring middle school students, and those high school teens also work with SVSU students.
"In the process really begin to create a generation of scientists, of technologists of individuals who are very, very comfortable with the sciences and technology," said Joseph Ofori-Dankwa, professor of international business at SVSU.
But sharper math skills aren't the only thing kids are getting out of the experience.
"A lot of people helped me especially in math, I felt like I should help others," said Lily Moncman, a senior in the program.

An Ocean County, N.J. man admitted his role in a $40.8 million mortgage fraud conspiracy in which he used his position as a loan officer of Wells Fargo Home Mortgage Inc. to get the company to release more than $4.6 million based on fraudulent mortgage loan applications, U.S. Attorney Paul J.

Wells Fargo Home Mortgage customers with a Home Rebate Card have used their rewards to automatically pay down $50 million in mortgage balances since the card's launch in 2007. Virtually every purchase a customer makes with the card counts toward rebates credited to the principal on their Wells Fargo Home Mortgage loan. These rebates are applied automatically in $25 increments until the mortgage loan is paid off. The rebate can help customers potentially reduce their long-term mortgage interest by thousands of dollars and lower the number of their remaining payments on fixed rate loans.Click to continue

"Hi ! I am embarrassed of my weight and can't wear a nice bikini to the beach. I'm going to Europe next year and I need to get a tight tummy and skinny thighs in the next 3-4 months. Can you please give me a basis of exercises and meals that I can use to achieve this because I am really determined to get the body I've always wanted. Please reply privately. Thank you :)"
Answer: Hey! I think it's AWESOME that you've set a goal and am determined to meet it. That's one of my favorite things to see- I'm a firm believer in anything being possible if you want it enough. Anyways, I'm posting this- without your username- as well as replying privately in case someone else has a similar issue or question.
Anyways, the order of things from most important/influential to least is : 1) what you eat 2) cardio 3) weights/ strength training on your overall body 4)toning and building muscle in the specific areas like doing leg lifts or bicycle crunches in this case. This means that you need to really focus on what you eat and cardio. Those are going to be the biggest things- you can have "abs"- so to speak at least- without having really strong abdominal muscles if you lower your body fat enough just so that the muscles that are simply part of your anatomy are more defined and show through. At the same time you can have the strongest abdominal muscles in the world but no one would be able to see them if you did not have a low enough body fat percentage for them to show.
So what I would recommend is having 6 or 7 meals a day- each with about 300 calories (closer to 250 if doing 7 meals). So basically you're constantly eating so you won't feel hungry and so your metabolism is up- your digestive system will be constantly working. Try to keep the food you eat as clean as possible- meaning if it comes in a package the ingredients list should be mostly stuff you can pronounce and can recognize. I'm not an advocate of cutting out gluten or dairy- or soy etc- for long term weight loss- so if you have 3 or 4 months then I would not recommend it because it's not the best thing for your body- so go ahead and eat bread and whatnot. I'd try for whole wheat, organic, etc when you can but it's not necessary- you have only white bread? Then by all means go for it- it's not THAT big of a deal at the end of the day. It makes a difference but not to the extent that a lot of people make it seem.
I would definitely recommend oatmeal. I always start my day off with 1/2 cup of oatmeal- usually with some raisins thrown in to sweeten it a little bit- and I have A TON of oatmeal recipes under wakeuphealthy.tumblr.com/tagged/oatmeal if you want any ideas to make it more extravagant, but if you're time-strained that's what I do. Basically all fruits and veggies are fair game- some people say to stay away from starchy stuff like bananas and potatoes and whatnot, but really come on that's a little extreme and quite frankly unnecessary- I go to a dietitian and her professional opinion backs me up on this. Just go for what you like basically. Some people say to stay away from peanut butter because it's high in calories- 2 TB is like 180 or 190 cal- but it has good fats and it actually makes your metabolism work harder and there are a lot worse things out there, so I have never limited or cut out peanut butter- but I really love peanut butter so that might also be a factor.
*If you think you don't have time or can't plan 6 meals a day- don't sweat it. Plan or construct the three main ones and then just eat them parts at a time. Basically deconstruct the 3 meals so you eat half of each within 3 hours of each other or something like that. It's really not as hard as people think.
And, I would drink a lot of water. I drink around a gallon(16 cups) of water a day- I'm a really thirsty person I guess haha. But seriously I think the more water you drink, the thirstier you get. Anyways, I'd strive for 10 cups a day.
Exercise-wise I'd try to get in cardio 5-6 times a week, with hard workouts being 3-4 times a week. These hard workouts should be HIIT- high intensity interval workouts. My favorite sample/example of it- that my trainer would have me do when I was doing them on my own at home or stretched for time- would be 30 seconds as hard as I can followed by 90 seconds of a slow recovery jog and repeating that 6-12 times(depending on how in-shape I was at the time). It works for all difficulty levels, because working as hard as you can changes for each person- the better in shape you are the harder and faster you are going to work your body and heart. So the things you can be doing for this can be running- so you'd be sprinting- or basically any cardio workout so you could be doing jumping jacks as hard and as fast as you can for 30 seconds and then slowly jogging in place to recover or high knees or butt kicks or burpees or jumping rope or basically anything. This is flexible so you can do it anywhere any time and it doesn't take very long either- it's like 20 minutes. So I'd do this twice a day- once in the morning and once in the evening or at least at two fairly-well spaced apart times so you can really get your metabolism going and pumped and revved up.
And the other non-hard workout cardio days should be stuff like jogging slowly or swimming or basically anything just don't do them as intensely like you do your hard workouts- any form of cardio can be cranked up or down depending on what you're putting into it.
And I'd recommend a rest day-or two if you haven't been exercising regularly- a week to give your joints a rest and to let your body recover. You can do yoga and stretches on these days though- because that's good for your body and aids in recovery.
Best of luck! X Rena

Since everyone seems to have one and I haven't got any place to show my sketches anyways, so here it goes. Feedback is welcomed as the main reason for this sketchbook for me - is learning. From what you might have to say, to advice, etc.
Here's some stuff from my DA scrapbook:
the oldest one since high school, the card-playing goblin
also from high school, some warrior chick
sketches for the game(all except two on the lower left) we've just finished making. the concept of the game was completely rewritten, so those are not included and it's ok to post it.
Same here, except for Fallout's Harold in the lower middle and cat creature from Perfect World mmo on the lower right, which could be considered the fanart.
Lewis Carroll's characters done for the heck of it.
Faces - some from the real world, some from my ill mind.
Creature concept I've done for Tamriel Rebuilt mod for TES4Oblivion - Hammerfell part of it.
Me and my cat. His name is House and he is adorable, yet annoying little kitty.

There's another angry guy. Tomorrow I'l get my sketchbook from work and there should be much more.
Hey, welcome to the CA.org! It's always nice to have here fellow russian artist. You've got some skills and moves already (as stylized character look decent). My advice will be simple - study anatomy. Even if you're planning to do more cartoon-ish art, knowing human anatomy is essential for any artist. So do studies, as much as possible, and just don't stop.

Hi Umbinc. Welcome to CA and thanks for stopping by my sketchbook. You have nice cartoonish style with characters. The one with you and your cat is excellent. Only thing though. The cat looks too simple compared to rest of the picture. Last guy is great with his bony fingers. Keep posting!

Hey there. You have a good start to a sketchbook here! I like your fly-man design and the tall skinny man with the cat on his shoulder. It's also good that you're playing around with grotesque faces.
It looks like you're heading in the right direction. Be careful about putting the lines between teeth in on women, it emphasizes the teeth -- all right if you want to give them character, but too much contrast if you want to make them look attractive. Otherwise it's mostly a matter of what proportions and shapes work the best, and you'll find that through a lot of experimentation.
Good luck!

Those sketches for the game look good! Were they done in pen?

I like the cartoon of you and your cat. Hope you're not offended by the use of the term 'cartoon'. I consider myself a cartoonist as well as illustrator. So it's meant to be positive. The weird 'fly' creature is pretty creepy looking.
Seraph Fawkes, Yesss... Anatomy. Gotta learn so much... Will do.
Myllys, thanks)
vineris, thanks for the tips, I'll remember that next time.
BlackDelphin, yes, that is pen
davebeaty, thanks))
As I promised - more works to come)
More random cartoonish faces - I love drawing that stuff - and creepy fat goblin for some reason.
ANother portion of concepts for a completely reworked game - unused. Creature resembling someone from ff and a goblin. That year was defenetely a year of goblins.
An anime-ish girl and a mech - something I never realy draw. The mech I mean. Not anime girl.
The general of all goblinkind. The design I'm proud of for some reason. I mean - I've drawn many goblins that year and only this one - I love.
King of goblins and.. err... maybe dr. House?
SOme silly gremlin and shaman stuff
The guy with the gun and some warrior creature based on the tribesman I had in Spore game)
Jester goblin.
Randomness as it is.
Most recent addition to weird heads collection.
Hey there, you've made a great start on your sketchbook. Niice
I can see you've got plenty of imagination, so that's no problem
At the moment I can give you two advices.
1. Draw, draw, draw! Sitting still wont help you improve
2. Buy an anatomy book as soon as possible, they really help a lot, next to drawing from life. I can advice buying a book from either Loomis or Bridgeman. (or both ) IF you dont know what I mean, be sure to ask
Keep the good stuff rolling!
My advice is to get Andrew Loomis Figuredrawing. Google it and you'll find a pdf, I use that one all the time. Also draw from photos for studying anatomy, that's a great way to do it too.
Other than that, keep pushing out stuff. And try your best to switch between imagination work and studies.
Thanks for stepping by my sketchbook too by the way.
Have a great day !
Hey, really cool characters here, love the alien the best! Keep up the great concepts, hope to see more soon!

And here goes most recent one.

Great stuff you have in here! You have a lot of imagination, it's really nice the stuff you come up with. I would recommend drawing three dimensional forms and working on perspective (not that I know anything). Adding a little more form to your drawings will really push you to the next level. Keep on going! Good work!

Some sketches. Haven't sketched people for... I dunno... 3-4 years... Forgot how fun it can be.
Post some of your studies.
Do figuredrawing and anatomy, then go to your imaginative work. And if you're totally into it, then do the studies, then redo some from your head to see what you remember and then go to the imaginative stuff.
Keep posting, keep working hard.
Thanx for stopping by at my SB

Whew, Garrosh, I don't even know where to start with this one. Six months ago if you were to ask me what encounter would challenge us, as a guild, I was really hoping it would be this one--and to be honest, it was among one of the hardest this tier.
While we only put in around 300 attempts on Garrosh, it sure felt like a lot more. Day after day of disconnects, high latencies, last-minute stuff coming up, and just plain hating each other. We just could not get a solid raid week on this boss. After countless wipes, things began to fall into place; phase 3 started progressing and phase 4 fell into place. Next thing you know, we all realized this can actually happen; we can do this. So with proper head removal from asses and actually being able to raid for a solid week, we were able to pull this kill off.
Was it the hardest boss of the tier? Statistically, no. With Blackfuse slightly over 500 attempts, Garrosh almost felt like a walk in the park. I just want to thank all of Get Well Soon for putting up with each others' shit to get through yet another tier of raiding--and thanks to Blizzard for actually producing challenging bosses.
Check back soon for information on recruiting for the new expansion! We will be needing more for Mythic raiding.

YANKTON, S.D. (AP) - The number of irrigation permits issued in South Dakota last year soared as farmers worked to recover from a devastating drought the year before.
The state Department of Environment and Natural Resources issued 354 irrigation permits in 2013, more than doubling the 2012 total of 174. In 2011, only 62 permits were issued.
The Yankton Daily Press & Dakotan reports that 40 percent of last year's permits were issued in five southeastern counties that were hard-hit by drought in 2012.
State natural resources engineer Ron Duvall says drought was the main factor in the permit increase last year, but higher crop prices and lower interest rates also had an influence. He says the three factors created "the perfect storm" for more interest in irrigation.
