I'm so thrilled to be part of this amazing series this week. Thanks so much sweet Carrie for asking me to join! Have you checked out her signature style yet? If not then I tell you that you should by clicking HERE!
I also love finding out more about all the fabulous blogs that are included in this blog hop.
Today you can also see:
I summed up my style with my living room in the board below, although there is so much more I could have picked:
I'm just going to pretend that y'all are new to my blog today because if you've been around for a while then you know how much I love quirky animal decor. I absolutely love the brass peacocks in my board above. They aren't mine yet, but I'd love to change that ;)
Although I recently painted an accent wall in my kitchen mint (Mint Whisper 5008-7A Valspar Reserve), I tend to keep my walls mostly neutral because I love changing out all the other colorful accents in our house frequently.
Keeping the walls mostly neutral allows me the freedom to have those colorful accents.
The grey in my living room is Seashell Gray 4003-1A, the white that I used for the walls in my dining room and kitchen are Ultra White (7006-24) and the black for the accent wall in my hallway and closet are Dark Kettle Black (4011-2). They are all by Valspar and all in eggshell.
I can't live without a good black and white pattern in every room. I crave it and it's a total must. Stripes, dots, crosses and other black and white patterns, they are all there.
I love mixing metals and I don't think I will ever get sick of that. Silver, copper and gold all live happily together in my spaces.
All this extends to our backyard as well. In the outdoors I also love mixing textures, different greens and colors.
(See more HERE)
I'm pretty colorful but haven't always been like this. It took me a long time to get here. I have gotten a lot braver because I learned to just go with my instinct and to not care what other people think. I'm ok with the fact that this isn't everyone's cup of tea. But if it is also yours then you can check out my other projects HERE and my daughter's room HERE.
Why did I mix in a loafer on my "Signature Style" board up above you might ask? Well chances are you will see me wear leopard loafers if you run into me on a regular day. I just love them and the shoe pictured above is just so comfortable! I have to order another pair because my old ones are so worn down ;)
To make the circle complete for today make sure to hop on over to my friend Jessica from Decor Adventures who is first on the list.Monday:

Re:No plugin, just extend what you have already. (345 comments)
Re "Extend your search keywords to add "nosite". i.e. nosite:experts-exchange.com": you can already do this (and this feature has always been available). Just add a '-' to 'site:domain.com'. So, just add -site:experts-exchange.com to your search query and you will not see any results from that site.
Dupe of previous story? (164 comments)
This was news last year. That post contained a reference to http://games.slashdot.org/story/09/04/27/1354213/IBM-Computer-Program-To-Take-On-Jeopardy -- April 27, 2009. Interesting, but old.
More Dutch teams participating (113 comments)
The success of the Dutch team has (finally) caused others to take up the challenge. One is another from the Netherlands, the http://www.solarteamtwente.nl/nieuws.php Solutra team (http://www.utwente.nl/ University of Twente). Compared to the Delftian guys, these people are novices, but it's nice to see some real rivalry and competition being initiated. I saw them practice, just a few days before the went to Australia, and asked if they has practiced changing tires (which I think is the important thing in winning the challenge). The answer: no, not yet, do you think that's important?
Remember that it really is a challenge, since temperatures inside the car can get more than 50 degrees Celsius.

Girl Scouts of Northern California gives girls currently in 9th-11th grade the opportunity to apply to be girl members of our Board of Directors.
Stay tuned for applications in the fall!
Here is what Christina Mitine, current girl board member, has to say about her experience:
"Serving as a Girl Board Participant on the GSNorCal Board has allowed me to continue actively participating in Girl Scouting during my last year of high school. I have had the incredible opportunity to observe and take part in a network of influential and dedicated women from whom I have begun learning how to run the organization as well as its policy and strategic plans. I have been not only able to listen in on the meaningful conversations that these women have but have also had the chance to voice my thoughts and opinions both in person and via conference calls. After thirteen years in Scouting, I now have a unique chance to dedicate my time to the Girl Scout community by participating in financial and administrative news, activities, and discussions. It has been a truly inspirational experience in which I have fully understood what it takes to uphold such a powerful and effective organization that has kept the sisterhood of Girl Scouts thriving for over a hundred years."
Following is a testimonial from Zahra Surani who has participated on the Board as a girl advisor:
"Joining the Northern California Board of Directors as a girl member was a very insightful experience for me. I had the opportunity to meet and interact with women who continue to inspire me every day. Through the board, I felt as if I was making a direct impact for the cause of women empowerment because my voice was heard in making all the decisions for Girl Scouts. I gained knowledge not only about the development of my abilities but also about the behind-the-scenes aspects of Girl Scouts. Without this position, I would have never known how much effort, devotion, and love go into shaping Girl Scouts and making it special for every girl."

New substation to help power campus growth
By Jason Winders
May 08, 2014
With energy demand pushed to the brink across the campus core, Western is planning construction of a new electric substation this spring – one Facilities Management officials say will ease the strain on the existing system.
The new West Substation will be located on the west side of the Social Sciences Centre (SSC), between the building's parking lot and the University Community Centre (UCC). The substation will expand on an existing smaller substation, currently located at the site and servicing only the SSC.
Construction on the $3.5-million project will begin this month or next with the expectation of it being operational by December or January.
The project is necessary not only for the university's energy infrastructure, but for the its future plans as well, said Vic Cote, Facilities Engineering interim director.
"Quite often, energy users don't see the infrastructure – especially on a university campus," Cote said. "But this project is an important component to following our Strategic Plan towards a more research-intensive university. It's an important infrastructure piece that needs to be put in place sooner rather than later."
This need, Cote continued, is all about supply and demand.
Currently, Western's core campus is served by three London Hydro-fed, yet university-owned, substations – North Substation, located in the University Hospital area; East Substation, located between the Visual Arts and Chemistry buildings' parking lots; and South Substation, located behind Alumni Hall. North and East were constructed in 1993, followed by South in 2002.
Current peak demand on the system has reached 96.9 per cent with no expectation of it slowing.
"The summer months are the period for our highest electricity demand," Cote said. "If we do not expand our capacity, the university will begin to experience the equivalent of brownouts and will have to take steps to reduce demand. This would include reducing our air conditioning and cooling capacity on the main campus."
Although the current infrastructure was built to power the campus until 2023, a building boom from 1997-2007 moved that date far closer.
On top of more buildings, energy demands inside all buildings have changed over the last several years. Research – especially medical and scientific – pushes the system, as does teaching in increasingly smarter classrooms. With more and more connected students bringing more and more smart technology to campus, additional electronic infrastructure is required to support them.
The university is now expected to exceeded usage by 2016, unless capacity is added.
"In order to open up opportunities for us to grow and expand, we need to increase capacity by 25 per cent. That's our estimate," Cote said. "This project will give us at least 10 years of growth, at our current pace."
Although other sites were considered, including one in the D.B. Weldon Library parking lot, the final location answered all the necessary needs of the new substation.
It will provide new and additional feeders to the existing network of core campus feeders. These new feeders will be allocated, over time, to areas of the campus most in need of additional capacity and alternate sources of power. The highest priority areas are those with power connections from only a single substation – in other words, areas currently without backup.
"It's similar to having two ways to get to your house," Cote said. "You never know when you'll need that extra way in."
And campus has already seen what happens when it loses one of the three.
In June 2012, an overnight failure of an on-campus transformer within one of the substations sparked a power outage across campus. Extensive damage to the components that feed a transformer kept Western from full electrical capacity for weeks.
While sustainability continues to be a priority for the university, conservation cannot keep pace with demand.
"We are conserving. And we're doing a good job of it," Cote said. "We've had significant improvement in how we use power in these buildings, but if you look at the way we are using our buildings, as well as teaching demands, there is no hint that increasing electricity demand is going to let up.
"Following the university's Strategic Plan, we are going to become a more research-intensive institution, and that means more power use."
On the location, Facilities Management plans to screen the substation from the ground.
A solid wall barrier will hide the substation equipment, improving on the visual impact from street level, including from foot and auto traffic along Western Road. The barrier's materials will be chosen to blend into those used to construct the SSC and UCC. Landscaping will finish off the area.
Due to the construction, some changes will be made to the pedestrian pathway. However, there will be no changes – like loss of parking spaces – to the adjacent parking lot.
"We realize it's a sensitive location," Cote said. "Aesthetically, we realize these types of facilities have shortcomings. So, we're taking steps to screen and landscape, so it fits into its surroundings."

Malice In Wonderland Lyrics - G.B.H.
See the sun way up high,
burning down on me.
Mountains rise and kiss the sky,
then crumble to the sea.
But alas all's not well in Eden now,
things ain't what they seem.
There's malice in Wonderland,
malice in Wonderland, and it's getting bad.
The preacher man he looks oh so sad,
he's got a tear in his eye.
His only friend deserted him,
drank a Bourbon bottle dry.
Heaven or hell go where you please,
you'll live with your own curse.
When Hell is full up to the brim,
the dead shall stalk the earth.

okay okay last valentine I promise
I just love Prince Gumball so much omg
Prince Gumball and Marshall Lee~
My first attempt at Adventure Time style~ I can still see some of the way I draw but I tried- AND I SHALL KEEP TRYING. Piku gave me the idea~
The crown for a kiss ; 3 ;No one hate me please pleaseee~
I don't know why… But I have become completely infested with these two~ Most likely because the way their personalities clash (so far we know) makes me so happy * v * I've already created a few headcanons for them… 1 being Marshall isn't 100% clear on his feelings. He messes around often(a remark, a hug, a kiss etc;) but then denies any real intentions behind it… I suppose something like he acts before he thinks~
I'm so naughty… I had this idea for a like 3 panel comic with Gumball, Fionna and Marshall. I think it's a bit too "mature" though.I'm too ashamed to actually draw it. AH.
