U.S. Sports Desk, May 3 (EFE).- The Golden State Warriors pulled off the biggest surprise of the NBA playoffs thus far, wrapping up a 4-2 series victory over the Denver Nuggets to advance to a second-round match-up against the San Antonio Spurs.
Star guard Stephen Curry and center Andrew Bogut were the keys for the Warriors in a series-clinging 92-88 victory Thursday night in Oakland over the Nuggets, a team of relative no-names who overachieved during the regular season but lacked an elite player to carry them in the playoffs.
Curry started slowly and missed five of his six field-goal attempts in the first half, which ended with the Nuggets leading 42-40.
But he came alive to score 14 of his 22 points in the third quarter, when the Warriors - the sixth seed in the Western Conference - outscored Denver 33-20 to take the lead for good.
Curry, who also dished out eight assists, got plenty of help from Bogut, who left behind a host of injury problems in recent years to have his best game since coming to the Warriors from the Milwaukee Bucks in a trade last year.
For the game, Bogut tallied 14 points, 21 rebounds and four blocks to dominate the paint against the Nuggets' big men.
Warriors fans also got some unexpected good news when star forward David Lee, whom the team had said was out for the season with a hip-flexor injury, came in off the bench to play briefly.
Lee, however, said afterward that he would still not be ready to play major minutes in the series against the Spurs.
The Nuggets, meanwhile, were led by Andre Iguodala, who scored 24 points, grabbed nine rebounds and handed out six assists.
The third-seeded Nuggets, winners of 23 of their last 26 regular-season games despite not having an All-Star player on their roster, struggled throughout the series to contain Curry, who scored 29 points in Game 3 and 31 points in Game 4 as the Warriors grabbed a 3-1 series lead.
Prior to Thursday night's game, Warriors head coach Mark Jackson was hit with a $25,000 fine for accusing the Nuggets of dirty play and trying to injure Curry intentionally.
Next up for the Warriors will be the Spurs, who swept the Los Angeles Lakers in the first round.
In one other playoff game Thursday night, the Brooklyn Nets scored a 95-92 road victory over the Chicago Bulls to take that first-round series to a decisive seventh game.
The defending champion Miami Heat loom for the winner.

FCEUX v2.2.3 released
Posted by
Comments: 0
FCEUX is a cross platform, NTSC and PAL Famicom/NES emulator that is an evolution of the original FCE Ultra emulator. Over time FCE Ultra had separated into many separate branches. The concept behind FCEUX is to merge elements from FCE Ultra, FCEU rerecording, FCEUXD, FCEUXDSP, and FCEU-mm into a single branch of FCEU. As the X implies, it is an all-encompassing FCEU emulator that gives the best of all worlds for the general player, the ROM-hacking community, and the Tool-Assisted Speedrun Community.
FCEUX v2.2.3 Changelog: [quote]
The 2.2.3 release fixes a number of emulation bugs, features overclocking (for lag reduction) and Dendy mode, and adds support for a bunch of new ROM dumps (mostly unlicensed).

SSF Test Version 20160728 released!
Posted by
Comments: 0
SSF is a Sega Saturn emulator for Windows systems using DirectX 9.0b. The current version claims near-complete implementation of the Sega Saturn hardware (not counting emulation bugs), and can emulate the Saturn based Sega Titan Video arcade hardware too. As with most emulators, CDs or disc images are not included and have to be owned separately. The BIOS is also not included; as of 0.07 Beta R3, games run without the BIOS however. The usage of BIOS files is optional but recommended for better compatibility, and needed for tasks such as management of the contents of the internal memory of the Sega Saturn, or setting the system clock.
SSF Test Version (2016/07/28) Changelog:
Translucent meshed with the GPU rendering implemented after diehard trilogy moves like is will (need to change backup RAM cartridge, no?)

JavaCPC Desktop v2.9.5b released!
Posted by
Comments: 0
JavaCPC Desktop is a brand new Amstrad CPC emulator. It is based on JEMU and is an extremely improved release from JavaCPC 6.7. JavaCPC Desktop is designed to be used on Windows systems only, but maybe can run also on other systems, but a few features will be missing then.
JavaCPC Desktop function:
- High accurate emulation of the Amstrad CPC homecomputer range
- Many useful features like internal YM-Player, JavaCPC paint and many more.
- Perfect AY-Soundchip emulation
- German, English and Spanish keyboard translations
- Virtual tapedrive, which supports CDT, CSW, WAV and MP3
- Built-in debugger features breakpoints and break instructions
- Advanced settings provide different AY-output routines to get the most preferred emulation
- Digiblaster emulation
- CRTC 0 and CRTC 1 are emulated to let almost every demo run fine
JavaCPC Desktop v2.9.5b Changelog:
Update from v2.9.4 to v2.9.5b changelog:
New features:
- Assembler understands command "define"
define .myfile = "MYFILE.BIN"
define .mycode = "MYCODE.ASM"
INCBIN .myfile
READ .mycode
this works with INCBIN, INCLUDE and READ (READ is similar to INCLUDE)
When you use INCBIN / INCLUDE / READ instructions, make sure, the additional files are in the same folder than your assembly code.
- Assembler: added IFDEF check
IFDEF does not check the value given to a label, just checks if this label has been defined.
ifdef mylabel
- Fixed LD IXH,x and related instructions
- RasterPaint is improved. You can now select every single zone/line to disable autogeneration for palette. (last palette is used then)
This is VERY useful to remove some unwanted stripes.
Use right mouse button into preview window:
1x clicked: rastermode 1: zones are selectable. (You can see them) Click one to toggle as active (default) or inactive
2x clicked: rastermode 2: lines are selectable. Click them to toggle, too
3x clicked: rastermode 3: zones AND lines are visible and toggle on click
You need to play around with that. But it really can improve the result.
- RasterPaint: Image can be opened in a 3x zoomed frame. It has the same rastermodes to select zones and lines like the main window.
Makes it easier to find / hit the correct zones.
- RasterPaint: Image, which is vertically higher than 320x200 pixel ratio can be scrolled up/down now.
- An emulator has been added :P (You can only use it with a special cheat command from console...) (Hint: It's not a toaster but may have to do with bread)
Many more things fixed, which I forgot now to list were made, too.
And, as usual: Many new bugs added for your pleasure ;-) [quote]

I've been increasingly surprised at the amount of memory firefox has been using on me and I've been thinking about switching browsers or at least trying out chrome.
Anyone out there used both FF and chrome and have any feedback on compliance of the two of them?
I've heard some good things about chrome in the past but have never taken the leap to try it.
well that's just, like, your opinion, man

This is a photo I took at Sedlec Ossuary in Kutna Hora, Czech Republic on my latest trip to Europe. It's a chapel that's decorated entirely in human bones, and it's been on my bucket list since I first learned of its existence. It houses the bones of over 40,000 people.
I took over 800 photographs on my nearly 2-week long trip, and I have so much to say about the places I've visited that I'm not even sure where to start, as it's been so long since I've blogged seriously. (Though, let's be honest, I've never really blogged "seriously.") I aim to try, though. (As per usual. Also #parentheticalstatementsareawesome)
So this is just a short update, enjoy the creepy photograph. High contrast black and white really brings out the texture of the skulls.
I first heard about Stitch Fix a while ago via one of my old neighbors who had signed up. She loved the service, and when they expanded their available style range I decided to sign up. (I definitely lean towards the more alternate/edgy side of fashion, and originally I felt they weren't catering to that area of style.) I received my first Stitch Fix box in the mail last month (yes, I'm always belated with this stuff), and I wanted to share the experience with you!
To start, if you are not familiar with Stitch Fix—it is a subscription box service for curated fashion. You fill out a style profile, which is impressively extensive, and a stylist is assigned to you to hand-pick five items for your box. You can choose to receive a one-time box or have an automatic subscription repeat every two weeks, every month, or every other month. I currently have every month selected, personally, to see how it goes. They charge a $20 styling fee per box, which gets deducted from whatever you decide to purchase from your box. Whatever pieces you decide you don't like, you send back in a provided shipping bag with a prepaid shipping label. So it's kind of like having a personal stylist choose some items for you! I found it extremely helpful to provide a Pinterest board of my personal style preferences, as a reference for my stylist.
The box arrived and looks like this when you first open it up:
Inside was some paperwork and my five, hand-curated items. The paperwork included a card with all the items listed on it, a message from my stylist, and two styled looks per item. I received two tops, a pair of pants, a faux leather vest, and a dress.
The first top is a mixed stripe sleeveless, loose tank in salmon and dark navy. The navy looks black from a distance. It is definitely not a color combination I would have chosen myself. The brand is Splendid and I was sent a size small. This fit me quite well!
The second top is a white & black snake print tank top. Again, probably not an item I would have picked out myself. I typically steer away from white in my wardrobe, since I have very fair skin. However, I really liked the contrast in this shirt, as it is white in the front with the snake print and black in the back (without the print). The brand is Tart and I was sent a size small. This also fit me really well.
The pants are olive- or military-green cargo pants with zippered pockets. I really, really liked these pants however they fit a size too big! They are the brand Sanctuary and I was sent a size 26, though I think I need a 24. Sadly, I returned the pants. Hopefully Stitch Fix can get back to me on whether they have a size 24 available.
The faux leather vest fit me a bit loose, but I liked the style of it a lot. However, I already own two vests like this that are made from real leather. Thus it seemed silly to have a third such vest in my closet, especially when it wasn't even real leather. I ended up returning this. The brand is Sanctuary and I was sent a size small.
The dress is probably my least liked item in the box. It's a black and white, straight-cut dress with some interesting patterns on it. However, it fit me loosely and I don't think the cut works for my figure at all. I also don't like straight-cut dresses, I prefer more fit-and-flare styles or body-hugging ones. (When it comes to dresses, I'm all about the curves!) This was definitely a return for me. The brand is Sanctuary and I was sent a size x-small.
All-in-all I was pretty pleased with the majority of the items I received! I liked 4/5 items though I only ended up keeping 2/5 because of size (the pants) and owning similar items already (the vest). When a return is processed you can fill out why you didn't like an item—they give you a few options such as fit, price, style, etc. Honestly I think as long as I like at least one thing out of a box each month, which is probably likely, I would keep the service. I enjoyed the surprise factor, and I think as time goes on your stylist can get to know you better and be more equipped to make informed selections for you.
I've been in a spring-cleaning mood, despite it not being Spring. (Though, honestly, I wouldn't blame you if you mistook summer in San Francisco for early Spring It's still kinda cold here even though it's nearly August.) After moving into my own apartment back in September, I realized I have a rather large amount of clothing. And while that may be nice to, you know, not do laundry for a few months (yeah, okay, I know that's kind of ridiculous), I can't help but realize that I own a lot of pieces that I simply don't wear anymore.
It's not even that the items don't fit—though, yes, some probably don't—it's moreso that my style has evolved over time. For example: I used to be a big wearer of geeky/nerdy t-shirts. While I still love a good t-shirt, I just realistically never gravitate towards wearing them. I have a whole drawer full of these t-shirts and, if I'm 100% honest, the drawer is actually overflowing. But it stays full/overflowing because I am hardly, if ever, wearing these t-shirts.
It's about time I went through all my stuff and did a good purge, starting with the stuff that never sees the laundry pile. I think it's a pretty good indicator of my use of a particular item if it never ends up in the wash and just hangs out, forever, in my closet or in a drawer (like those aforementioned t-shirts). I could use that space for stuff that I actually wear! And then buy more stuff I actually wear! Imagine that.
I don't, however, just want to throw a pile of clothes in the trash or donate them to Goodwill. I'd like to, ideally, make some cash selling them. I've experimented selling some of the stuff I already have in get-rid-of piles on Poshmark but, frankly, I am too lazy to ship each piece individually. It involves making a trip to the Post Office, which is several blocks out of my way both two and from work and who wants to waste their lunch hour at USPS? Nope, not me. I'd rather eat a tasty sandwich. Yes, I realize Poshmark provides me with a shipping label. But do you think I have boxes ready to go in my apartment? I don't. I also don't have a printer. Or packing tape. And I don't really want to have to worry about these things, either. (You are now starting to truly understand how stubborn my Lazy is.)
As an alternative, I've decided to check out these three online consignment stores: Twice, ThredUp, and Threadflip. (As an FYI, these are all referral links. 'Cause who doesn't like a little bit of incentive?) I intend to write a blog post on how my experience with these three services goes, but the basic gist of how they work is that they send you a shipping bag to mail them all the items you want to sell.
They go through your items, pick the ones they want to buy from you, and you agree to the offer. After that, they pay you and list the items on their websites. Threadflip seems to have an option to list an item individually, yourself, like how Poshmark works. Threadflip also doesn't pay you until your item sells, and you get up-to-80% of the selling price. Twice & ThredUp pay you up front, like a consignment store would, for your items.
Twice seems to be the pickiest of the three, in terms of what brands they'll accept. I intend to mail them my more high-end items, and send the rest to ThredUp which has a much broader list of items they will accept (like things from Forever 21, which Twice won't take). One of the nice things about Twice is that if there is anything in your bag that they don't take, they'll donate it to Goodwill for you, so the item doesn't go to complete waste. I'm not sure what ThredUp does with anything they don't take, as it's not specified on their website. As for Threadflip, I think I'll try sending them a few items and see what happens. I'm not keen on the idea of waiting for an item to be purchased before I am compensated, but it's not necessarily a bad thing. I'm just impatient.
In December of last year—yes, I know, this is a very belated blog post—I went to get my very first Deva Cut, which is a specific method of cutting and styling curly hair. They cut your hair dry, so that the curl pattern is visible, instead of wet which can weigh down curls and stretch them out. Then they wash, style, and go back in with scissors to do any touchups. They never use a razor or thinning shears, and they cut each curl individually and at a specific point in the curl so as not to break it's pattern. It's a long hair cut, 1-2 hours, but totally and utterly worth it.
I was able to find a salon here in San Francisco, Madusalon, that caters specifically to curly hair and are experts in Deva Cuts. Previously I've had my hair cut at Ouidad in NY, where they also specialize in curly hair but they still cut your hair wet. When I moved to SF I was originally going to Barber Lounge until my stylist left the salon. I really liked my stylist there and we remain friends, but I had been wanting to try a Deva Cut for a long time now. (That post is from 4 years ago! Augh.) I'm glad I finally did, and am kind of kicking myself for not doing it sooner!
To start, here is what my hair looked like before:
It had been more than a year since it was cut, because I'd been lazy about going to a stylist, and was long enough to tuck into my pants. It was dry, frizzy, and I had lots of split ends. The length of it was definitely weighing my curl pattern down, resulting in stretched-out curls that were not as springy as they could be.
And here's the after:
As you can see, it's an incredible difference, and I'm very pleased with the results. I've had a second cut since then, 6 months later, and am due for my 3rd this Saturday. I'm trying to be diligent about scheduling future appointments when one is finished, so I don't forget about it. So far, so good.
Since April I've also been adopting the Curly Girl Method [and here is a video about it, too] which is detailed in the Curly Girl Handbook, a book I highly recommend for anyone with naturally curly hair—no matter your curl pattern! The method mostly involves giving up shampoo in favor of conditioner-washing (co-washing, for short), and in doing so you have to be careful of what's in the other products you do use—like gel, conditioner, etc.—because silicones, which are commonly used in those products, are not water-soluble and therefore would build up in the hair if not washed out with shampoo. I might write about the details and talk about the products I've been using at a later date.
This is the view from the top of the building I live in. I took the picture a while ago (last December) but recently came across it again while going through my camera roll, and I thought I'd share it. I have to say, I love high contrast black and white photos. I should take/edit more pictures like this.
If you follow me on Instagram at all, you've probably noticed I post a metric ton of cat photos. You've also probably noticed that I've adopted a second cat.
I posted back in March when I adopted Calluna, but I didn't make a post for Gigi. It was partly because I hadn't really settled on her name until later, but also because I wasn't sure if I would be keeping her.
Back in April, after I returned from my Nicaragua trip, I was having some behavioral issues with Calluna. She had started to howl and cry in the middle of the night, and would continue to do so for hours until the morning when I get out of bed to feed her. Originally I thought it was because she was hungry, but if I fed her at 3 or 4 am (when she started the howling) she would only be quiet for about 15 minutes while she ate, and then she'd start up again.
After that, I thought it was probably revenge on me, for being out of town for a week and leaving her alone. However, I did have my neighbor (who has a cat of her own) come in and feed/play with Calluna every day for the express purpose to prevent her from being lonely. After two weeks with no improvements, I feared maybe there was an underlying medical issue and I took her to the vet. $300 in tests later, she checks out perfectly healthy. The vet said it sounded like she was acting as if she was in heat, but that that cause is impossible because she is spayed. He said it was very weird, but my options included putting her on some Prozac to calm her down or consider getting a second cat.
Needless to say, I did not want to put her on Prozac. As the vet put it, doing so would be like putting a nail in a wall with a sledgehammer—overkill. So I decided to consider a second cat. I talked with a few friends who have more than one cat and they reassured me that it's not much more difficult than having one. My main concern was them getting along, as I did not want to have them hate each other, which I knew was a possibility if their personalities didn't mesh. I opted to get a kitten, since a younger cat would be easier for Calluna to adjust to and Callie is still pretty young, herself. (She is about a year and a half old.)
So I went to a kitten rescue to meet some kittens. Gigi (who was called something different at the rescue) was a 4-month (now 6-months!) old tortoiseshell-colored kitten. She was following around an older male cat and was very playful, though timid when I approached her. The owner of the rescue assured me that she is skittish but warms up after some time. I decided to take her home and see how well she would do with Calluna, with the understanding that if they didn't get along after a week or two that I could bring her back to the rescue.
Obviously, things worked out swimmingly. Calluna only hissed at Gigi for about a week before she got over it. Gigi was constantly approaching her, wanting to play. Now, they're seriously inseparable and do everything together—they sleep together, lick/groom each other, play together, chase each other in circles around my apartment, etc. They also kind of eat together, but I have to keep them separated a bit because Gigi is still getting kitten food. They both sleep with me at night, too.
I'm pleasantly surprised at how well they're getting on, and extremely pleased that it's worked out so well. Calluna has completely stopped howling in the middle of the night, basically starting the day I brought Gigi home. The only one who "cries" now, funnily enough, is Gigi, at around 8 am right after I hit snooze on my alarm, because she really wants me to get up and feed her. But I can't be mad about it, because she has the cutest, tiniest mew ever.
I've interestingly discovered a few days ago that I can qualify to apply for Italian citizenship, via my ancestry. My great-grandparents on my mother's side were both born in Italy, and because Italy (and many other European countries) has a "jure sanguinis" law (also spelled "jus sanguinis", Latin for "right of blood") which allows you to claim citizenship based on an unbroken bloodline (meaning no renouncement or loss of Italian citizenship) between you and your Italian ancestors.
Words cannot tell you how excited I am about this prospect! I've always had future plans to move to Europe, and getting an Italian citizenship would also grant me EU citizenship, which would allow me to live & work in any EU country without having to worry about Visas. (Hello, socialized healthcare!)
It seems like all I need to do is gather necessary documents proving my lineage to my Italian grandparents—this includes birth certificates, marriage licenses, death certificates, divorce papers (if applicable), and other things from not only my grandparents but every generation between them and myself. So this will include my maternal grandparents and my parents. It will take me some months (maybe years, gasp!) to gather all the paper work, especially considering some of them will have to be ordered from Italy and all the American documents will have to be translated into Italian! And everything has to be notarized. Luckily for me, the Italian Consulate that is assigned to northern California is right here in San Francisco, so it won't be an issue for me to bring my application there or to call and ask any questions I may have.
I've already called my grandma and she's down to look through all her papers to see if she has any of these documents already. The first thing I need to figure out is whether or not my great-grandfather naturalized in the US before or after my grandmother's birth. If it was after her birth, I'm good to go. If it was before, I'm shit out of luck.
Then, hopefully after successfully confirming I qualify, I'll start with the birth certificates for my great-grandparents, ordered from Italy. This'll be a fun process, right? Luckily there are other people on the internet who've done the same (here is one such example), and there's lots of resources. I'm actually looking forward to researching everything, because it should teach me a lot about my mother's side of the family.
For those worried this would interfere with my United States citizenship, it shouldn't. I have absolutely no intentions to renounce my US citizen status and according to the research I've done that's the only thing that should ever come up. Thus, this would allow me to have dual citizenship in both the US and Italy. Pretty awesome, I think.
Wish me luck?
I'd like to introduce you all to Calluna, my newly adopted cat-baby. She's a black domestic short hair cat, just over a year old, and weighs in at a whopping 7 lbs.
She's a rescue that I've adopted from a local shelter. They found her in someone's backyard a month or two ago, but don't think she's feral at all. She must have been someone's lost pet, sadly! Though no one had come to claim her, so she got put up for adoption. I brought her home last Friday night, the day after seeing her adoption page on Thursday evening! It was basically love at first sight. (When I saw her on the shelter's website I was basically like "I MUST HAVE THIS CAT SHE'S PERFECT.")
I've named her Calluna, after one of my favorite typefaces! (Which is used right here on this blog as the body text.)
I'm super, super happy. She's adorable. Expect lots of impending cat photos on my Instagram. Here's some I've taken already:
Once, before I had an insulin pump so I must have been about 13 or 14 years old, I was eating at a diner with my dad, brother, and sister. My brother and I both live with Type-1 Diabetes, so we tested our blood sugars together. However, he was on an insulin pump at the time and I was not yet, so I had to draw up insulin into a syringe from a vial (this was pre-pens, too!) and I did so right at the table.
While I was flicking the syringe to get rid of the air bubbles I noticed, out of the corner of my eye, a little kid pointing at me. He asked his parent: "What is she doing?" I was done extricating the air bubbles at this point and made no hesitation in proceeding to take my injection in my arm, leaning against the table to pinch up the skin. I saw the child's parent watching me with this look of horror on her face.
She quickly turned to her child and said in a hushed, but not enough to prevent me from hearing her, tone: "You see what she did just there? I never want you to do that." Clearly, she assumed I was doing recreational drugs or something equally egregious. It kind of boggles my mind, thinking about it today. I was clearly a young teenager, sitting with my own parent and younger siblings, what in the world possessed her to think I would be doing such a thing not just openly in a public space, but under the watchful eye of my father? Really‽
I wish I had had the guts, at that age, to turn around and correct her. But I didn't—instead, I was extremely embarrassed. I remember always being embarrassed of having to do things in public, whether it was testing my blood sugar or taking shots. Having my brother along made it easier, because I was used to him doing it (he's lived with this disease much longer than I have) but it didn't make the staring or the insensitive comments more bearable. I remember getting mad at my dad, once, in a restaurant for telling the waitress to double-check that our soda was diet because his kids were diabetic. I remember such comments eliciting strange looks, judgmental glares, raised eyebrows. It got bad enough that I would go to the bathroom to take my shots, or—even scarier—not take them at all.
Last week, after a meeting with my Diabetes Educator, we decided to put me back on MDIs for the next month since my insulin pump has been malfunctioning. I felt the same feelings of shame creeping back in, and even avoided taking a shot in public at a late lunch with my boyfriend last weekend.
In an ideal world, no person living with Diabetes should have to feel this way, ever. Which is why I'm extremely perturbed by the Miss Manners post in which the advice columnist tells the PWD writing to her that he should absolutely go to the restroom to perform the simple blood glucose checks and insulin injections that are medically necessary for him to do, and often need to be done right away, so as not to "disturb" the people around him. Is this really what she considers to be polite?
Whether it be on a plane, bus, train, or at a restaurant—I'm past the point of being "polite" and excusing myself to hide from the world the fact that I have to do these things in order to stay healthy. It's shameful, it's not fair to me or anyone else and perpetuates the idea that the things I need to do to stay alive are somehow BAD.
No. Fuck that. I won't have it. Those stigmas against lancets and syringes will never be eradicated if it's not made to be seen as normal. Going forward, I'm not going to hide from anyone anymore. I took an injection right at my desk at work yesterday. So take that, Miss "Manners." Deal with it.
If you wear glasses, you've probably heard of Warby Parker, a company that lets you try on their glasses from the comfort of your own home. It's a great idea, and if you're in the market for some new 'specs it's helpful to not feel rushed in a retail environment and be able to ask your peers for advice. Since they've launched, a few other glasses makers have cropped up with the same concept.
Since I'm way overdue for a new pair of glasses—my current pair is over 4 years old, gasp!—I decided to order an at-home try-on kit from Warby Parker and also one from a competitor called Rivet & Sway that specializes in women's-only designs. Each try-on kit includes five glasses of your choice from their range, which on both sites is pretty broad. I picked a bunch of different styles but stayed with frames that don't have those annoying nose pieces that I usually find uncomfortable.
One downside to choosing frames for a try-on kit is that some are unavailable. I found this to be more of a problem with Warby Parker's site, as all their frames that were part of a special designer collection were not only completely unavailable to try on at home, but also unavailable for virtual try-on! I didn't have any issues with Rivet & Sway's selection being out of or unavailable for trying on at home, even with their brand new collection that was just released.
I ordered the kits on the same day and they both arrived on the same day, in a timely manner. Some glasses were obviously too big for my face, which I expected since I have a petite frame (there's a reason this blog has "little" in the title!) and being tiny definitely extends to the width of my face.
Below are photos of me wearing all the frames:
I only liked one pair of frames from Warby Parker, which was the Reece in Midnight Blue, but I did not love them. I was also kind of disappointed with their color selection, which was very neutral in most of their frames. I was looking to purchase a few different pairs of glasses so that I could accessorize to match my outfits or makeup or just my mood on different days, so I wanted some more variety!
I also only liked one pair of frames from the Rivet & Sway kit, but I did really like them! That pair was the Faster Pussycat frame in Jet Black. And since Rivet & Sway has incentive pricing for buying multiple frames—each frame after the first is nearly 50% off—and I was looking to buy a few different pairs anyway, I ended up ordering 2 more at-home try-on kits from them filled with glasses in the "Narrow" and "Petite" size category so that they would be more likely to fit my smaller face width. I forgot to take photos of those frames, but I did end up loving 3 more pairs of glasses and a pair of sunglasses, too!
In terms of customer service, I tweeted at both companies and Rivet & Sway not only had a much faster response time than Warby Parker but they actually called me to answer my questions! This was really surprising to me and I have to say it definitely skewed me to their favor on top of, you know, liking their frame designs a lot more. I've also communicated with them via email and they've been just as responsive. It's nice to see a company engaging their customers so quickly. How well this can scale as they become more popular, who knows. I hope they can keep it up!
In the end I ordered 4 pairs of glasses and 1 pair of sunglasses from Rivet & Sway, and 1 pair of sunglasses from Warby Parker. (The sunglasses from Warby Parker were not available for an at-home try-on kit but I loved them on the site so much that I just bit the bullet and bought them.) My sunglasses from WP have arrived already and I will say that I love them, they are the cat-eye shaped Wednesday sunglasses. My Rivet & Sway frames have not arrived yet because I only just ordered them last Saturday, but I'm really excited to get them! I can post photos of all the new frames I ordered when they arrive.
It is worth noting that both companies have pretty generous return policies, which is why I wasn't too afraid of ordering the sunglasses from WP without trying them on. Warby Parker has a 30-day return policy and Rivet & Sway actually has a 60-day policy! Both are no-questions-asked. Both also accept FSAs!
If you're due for some new glasses, I can safely recommend both services. However, I think they cater to a slightly different demographic. If you're female and are looking for more stylish, fun frames I definitely would lean towards Rivet & Sway, especially considering their customer service. They also offer style advice, if you send photos of yourself wearing glasses to them! They can recommend frames for you to add to your at-home try-on kit or help you select a pair once you've received a kit.

Despite controversy, Disney could unlock 'Song of the South'
There are 8 comments on the Asheville Citizen-Times story from Mar 24, 2007, titled Despite controversy, Disney could unlock 'Song of the South'. In it, Asheville Citizen-Times reports that:Walt Disney Co.'s 1946 film ''Song of the South'' was historic. It was Disney's first big live-action picture and produced one of the company's most famous songs the Oscar-winning ''Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah.'' It also ...

I grew up in Atlanta, GA. Wren's Nest, the home of Joel Chandler Harris, the author of the stories in "Song of the South", was not far from where I lived. The stories in this movie are wonderful. And their lessons still apply today. I do not see the harm in re-releasing this movie. The people who object should read the stories. They need to find their "Laughing Place!"

who cares!

Song of the South is no more racist today than some of the current Hollywood movies that have been put out in recent years. Think about it.
#4 Mar 27, 2007
I would love to hear those songs again. Lets hope the PC police don't hinder it.

WHY NOT ? Its a good movie and is not a racist movie by no Means. Slavery happen, and that was the times. My Ancestors slaves went back home to the Plantation after the Civil War freed them an they were happy to do so. It was HOME to them. Where else could they go?
#6 Mar 28, 2007
All I can say is "it's about time"! Only a moron would say "Song of the South" is "racist". It's time to tell the NAACP to go jump in the lake. Their membership is not even one third of African-Americans. In fact they were founded by white communists! They are only trouble makers who want their names in the news!

Very cool. It is about time. It's no more racist than Huck Finn, or Gone with the Wind. It's a fictionalized account of a historical time period. A fun story, and that's all.
#8 Mar 30, 2007
If a plantation worker couldn't be a
happy storyteller then no one could
be a happy storyteller. And just what is wrong with a movie that
makes people talk the way they
actually talked in the period
the movie was portraying. Political
correctness has gone past being
ridiculous to being downright stupid.

Hurry Up and Take Time To Win New Business
Return of the highly successful Business Growth Show to Glasgow provides highly charged and potentially lucrative opportunities to make contacts and win new deals.
Next month up to 500 of Scotland's most energetic business people are expected to put the idea to the test when the highly successful Business Growth Show returns to Glasgow.
Speed Networking, as its name implies, is a highly charged and potentially lucrative way to make friends and influence people as it ensures every business gets a chance to get in front of around 50 other like-minded people, all with a wide network of contacts of their own.
Although nobody would suggest that great business deals can be struck in a conversation that lasts just 90 seconds there is no doubt it can be the start of many worthwhile relationships.
Speed Networking is a fun way of making as many contacts as possible in a short a space of time. Fast and furious, it lines up between 40 and 50 businessmen and women and gives them just 45 seconds each to sum up themselves, their companies and their business plans.
The quick-fire conversations are all conducted under the watchful eye of Business Growth Show organiser Mark Linton, a former military man with a keen eye for the slouch, who parades the floor barking orders like a drill sergeant.
"You have to be strict! Otherwise it descends into chaos. If just one person gets out of line the whole thing can fall down and that is not the way we do business," said Linton, managing director of Corkscrew Events, the parent company of The Business Growth Show, a free event which is now rolling out across the UK following major successes in London, Oxford, Edinburgh, Leeds, Bristol and Manchester.
"The trick is to come armed with as many business cards as possible, wear a name badge and be prepared with a script to think of three things to say about your company. You only have 45 seconds to get your message across to the person opposite.
"It fast, furious and fun! Each delegate will get to meet between 20 and 25 others which means more contacts, more potential business and more possibilities to grow business."
Speed Networking is just one of the many reasons to attend this year's Business Growth Show at the
Thistle Hotel Glasgow on Tuesday, November 2nd (9am-3pm) which, judging by the number of early registrations, is already on its way to be being the biggest and best yet.
Exhibitors and delegates at The Business Growth Show will get the chance to share information that will help them buck the current economic trend and start to see their businesses actually grow.
"Networking is a tool that no business should be lacking from their sales and marketing process, especially in today's competitive climate," added Mr Linton. "It is a fantastic way of meeting your targeted customers face to face with an opportunity to speed network where you will get a chance to talk to at least 30 other delegates in a short space of time."
"If we are going to ride out this tough economic climate we have to stop talking ourselves into recession – we must adapt and overcome the current difficulties.
"Owners of businesses – large and small – have to get out there and start fighting. Otherwise they might as well shut down and go and work for someone else."
According to Colin McDermott, Event Director in charge of organising the Glasgow Show, next month's affair looks set to be the biggest and most successful to date.
"There is a real variety of big and small companies offering a staggering range of products and services which have already registered to come along to the show on November 2.
"The appetite for doing business in Glasgow is incredible. People realise that even if they have the best product or service in the world it doesn't mean much if they don't get out and tell others about it."
To attend this FREE event, please register at www.thebusinessgrowthshow.co.uk
There is still an opportunity to exhibit at the event as one of the show experts from as little as £199 plus vat. For further information please call Colin McDermott on 07702 753690 or email email@example.com

[quote:Anonymous Coward 1517833:MV8yMDU2Mzc0XzM0NzU2ODYwXzlDRjdGQTlD] [quote:13th-Century:MV8yMDU2Mzc0XzM0NTc3NTk5X0U1REY1OEFB] Our Lady Mary, please forgive those who get stuck in the quicksand of their own finite minds. God exists in Three Persons (united at all times). The Trinity is an easy concept to understand, and it is taught in the Bible over and over again. Father Son Holy Ghost How beautiful it is, that to redeem the world because of great unfathomable love, the Trinity prepared a girl child, miraculously born without the sin of concupiscence, through her conception in the marriage bed of St. Anne and St. Joachim. The girl child was Mary... in Hebrew "Miriam". "O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee." (The "Dogma of the Immaculate Conception," believed in the Catholic Church many hundreds of years before the official pronouncement of Pope Pius IX in 1854.) The Son, through the Father and through the Presence of the Holy Ghost, for the purpose of the Incarnation of Christ, entered the womb of Mary, whose marriage to the much older man Joseph was the relationship of a virginal ward to a protector/guardian. Mary remained a virgin throughout her life, and she bore no other children. (There were children in the extended family, who were the offspring of St. Anne in her older years, as well as the sisters of St. Anne, Mary's aunts. These were the youngsters related to Jesus, misstranslated in the KJV as being brothers and sisters.) In Luke, Chapter 2, the "Magnificat Prayer" is the quoted exclamation of Mary during her meeting with her cousin Elizabeth, whose pregnancy was also a miracle, as she and her husband Zechariah were a couple in their senior years. Elizabeth would give birth to a boy child, who grew up to be John the Baptist. In the "Magnificat Prayer", Mary expresses her love for God: "My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God my saviour, who respected the humility of his handmaiden; for henceforth all generations shall call me blessed!" Mary recognizes that God is her saviour, because she knows God is her Creator, the Giver of all blessing, and that salvation is only through Him. As a daughter of Abraham, of the lineage of King David herself (as even many leading Protestant scholars have confirmed), she continues her hymn of praise: "For He who is mighty has done great things to me, and Holy is His Name!" There should be no reluctance to call Mary the Mother of God. The Infant Child Jesus came into this world supernaturally and painlessly through her womb, once filled by the Holy Spirit. He lay in her arms in the manger. He was nourished at her breast. Through 15 centuries, Christians loved Mary and prayed for her intercession for their needs, knowing that her wonderful life continues in Heaven, where she rules as Queen of the Angels. As an additional gift from God, Mary did not die, nor was she buried. She experienced The Assumption Into Heaven of her physical body. Some years ago, I found it very educational to read the lives of Martin Luther and the other Reformers who left us with a Protestant theology which is so distorted. You will be surprised to find how greatly they disagreed with each other on basic points, how they betrayed one another, and succumbed to destructive behaviours and decisions. I am a Bible college graduate of the Assemblies of God, now 60 years of age, and I have repented for my blindness and my past prejudices against the Roman Catholic Church. I pray God will forgive all the false teachers of America and Canada. :sheep: However, it is important to understand that the modern Catholic Church in Rome WAS TAKEN OVER BY COMMUNISTS, SATANISTS, AND FREEMASONS after World War II. There is no true Catholic Church today. But there are true Catholics, who follow the old paths. :sheep: P.S. I believe this thread is also in error, as the Rosary was given by an apparition of Our Lady of the Rosasy, in the 13th century, to St. Dominic - in the form of 150 prayers... to correspond to the 150 Psalms in the Old Testament... There are Three Decades: The Joyful Mysteries The Sorrowful Mysteries The Glorious Mysteries .... and each Mystery/Decade has 50 prayer (10 x 5) = 50 50 x 3 = 150 The Number 5 does not represent a Pentagram Rosary. The OP is mistaken, but well-meaning, I am sure. http://www.traditioninaction.org/religious/a017rp.MountCarmel_Stretenovic.html :jerkit: [/quote] The OP is the nobody. Time to wake up. If TIA was legit, it would have had the power to stop the doom in 2009. But it didn't. Why? Because they're in the Freemason tank. The Mother of God is not kidding or wasting her time, understand? It is the eclipse, the Apocalypse, and Traditionm in Action is just more rotten milk for those with the wisdom of little babies. [/quote]
Original Message
If you want to wake up slumbering Novus Ordo Catholics to the Apocalyptic biblical lord deception and the pentagram rosary (the current version), documents are available for you to print out and distribute here:
link to www.fatimamovement.com
Wake them up now or forever hold your piece.
Remove the lord beads from your Rosary. They form a pentagram above the Cross. This is Masonry. Also, replace "the Lord" from the Ave Rosary prayer with "Our Lord" or "God."
"The Lord" is actually Allah, a burning bush, or Satan. The Rosary does not work when you interrupt the original 150 straight prayer chain to Our Lady with a prayer to Satan after every 10 prayers.
Say 150 of these in a Row:
Our Lady, full of grace, God is with Thee.
Blessed art Thou amongst sinners, and
Blessed is the fruit of thy womb.
Our Lady, Mother of God, pray for us sinners
Now and at the hour of our death.
The original form of the Rosary does several things, including stealing damned souls from the Illuminati who chant the 150 Psalms of David, awaiting their messiah, the anti-Christ.
Now is the hour to do this. It's later than you think.

Simple and easy with such great flavour's.
I used chives instead of spring onion, and use half mayo and half potato salad dressing (as I had some left over).
We loved this here, and DS especially really loved it, and he is taking leftover's to work......I have written in other review's if DS is a bit of a connoisseur of potato salad, and if leftover's go into a bowl for lunch next day....It must be good!
Thanks Joy, great recipe.
Very easy potato salad that tastes terrific! I loved not having all the chopping of onion, pickles, etc. to do and still have a great tasting salad. Do watch the potatoes carefully so they dont overcook and get mushy. Next time I will need to double the recipe because DH ate the majority of it. :) Thanks Joy for sharing this one with us! Made and reviewed for the Australian/NewZealand Forums Make My Recipe Reunion ~Australia Day Tag Game~.
I use the same recipe, but use 1/2 cup mayo and 1/2 cup of sour cream(+/-) and a tablespoon of Mrs. Dash original spice. Yum

Ohio State President Apologizes for Remarks
Ohio State president Gordon Gee apologized Thursday for comments he made in jest about Catholics at Notre Dame and about Southern universities.
Gee joked at a meeting of Ohio State's athletic council in December that Notre Dame wasn't invited to join the Big Ten because "those damn Catholics" couldn't be trusted, according to a recording obtained by the Associated Press. When asked by a questioner how to respond to SEC fans who say the Big Ten can't count because it now has 14 members, Gee said, "You tell the SEC when they can learn to read and write, then they can figure out what we're doing."
In a statement Thursday, Gee said, "The comments I made were just plain wrong, and in no way do they reflect what the university stands for. They were a poor attempt at humor and entirely inappropriate. There is no excuse for this, and I am deeply sorry."
This is the latest in a string of gaffes by Gee. A statement released by Robert Schottenstein, chairman of Ohio State's board of trustees, said the board met with Gee to "develop a plan that addresses these missteps."

Mayweather's Next Opponent Is No Joke
On Wednesday night Floyd Mayweather announced what boxing fans were hoping to hear—that his next opponent will be Canelo Alvarez. This veritable Super Bowl of boxing will occur Sept. 14 in Las Vegas. Mayweather (44-0, 26 knockouts), 36, is the 147-pound king. Alvarez (42-0-1, 30 knockouts), 22, is the light-middleweight champion. The fight will be at the catchweight of 152 pounds.
Alvarez, who has faith in his powerful and quick hands, said, "I will be the first to beat Mayweather." To keep his promise, he will have to do something no one else has against the elusive Mayweather: cut off the ring.

By Karl Weisel (USAG Wiesbaden)December 10, 2012
WIESBADEN, Germany -- The concerns of junior enlisted Soldiers were the focus of attention Nov. 28 at the Tony Bass Fitness Center.
Sgt. Maj. Keith Craig of the Army and Air Force Exchange Service-Europe and Command Sgt. Maj. Sa'eed Mustafa, U.S. Army Garrison Wiesbaden, invited Wiesbaden-area E-4s and below to ask questions of representatives of the Exchange, Defense Commissary Agency, USO, Housing, Education Center, the garrison's Transformation and Stationing Management Office and the Directorate of Family, Morale Welfare and Recreation.
"This is a platform for us to convey information to E-4s and below," said Mustafa, praising his Exchange counterpart for approaching him earlier this year with the idea of reaching out to junior enlisted Soldiers who might sometimes feel neglected in the information loop. "It's really just a platform for us to talk to Soldiers -- a senior NCO initiative.
"We chose foxhole as an analogy for basic Soldiering," said Mustafa, explaining the title, Exchange Foxhole Event -- "the connection from an old Soldier to a younger Soldier."
"This is in line with us trying to close some of the gaps with the Soldiers and the Exchange," said Craig. "We want to show them that we're here for them."
Both of the senior NCOs said that while typically information is shared with senior leaders and then is expected to flow down through the NCO support channel and chain of command, that doesn't always occur. Hence the foxhole effort to reach out to junior enlisted Soldiers.
"These people and all of us are here to serve you," said Mustafa, opening the floor to questions from the gathered Soldiers.
With questions ranging from why not all Wiesbaden military community housing areas are fenced in to concerns about the configuration of barracks rooms, subject matter experts did their best to explain current policies and future plans while sharing information about a host of programs and opportunities available through the Exchange, garrison and other agencies. Soldiers learned about the new Exchange Complex being built in Hainerberg Housing with construction set to start in early 2013 and completion slated for 2015, the Culture College program which provides a three-day introduction to Germany and local resources, ways to special order items through the Exchange and Commissary and various other quality-of-life topics.
One question concerned the possibility of offering a voucher program during Spring and Fall Cleanups, similar to one in Heidelberg, whereby community members could pick up vouchers from Self Help to obtain flowers or other beautification items from a local vendor. Housing Manager Donald Meyer said officials are working on offering this service in spring during the next cleanup activities.
Soldiers were also reminded that the Wiesbaden Better Opportunities for Single Soldiers program runs a free shuttle service from Clay Kaserne to the Wiesbaden Commissary on a regular basis to help them obtain needed supplies and nutritional foods. The bus operates every first and third Thursday of the month, departing from the Warrior Zone at 6 p.m.
Dr. Robert Schloesser, USAG Wiesbaden's FMWR director, said the shuttle service would be offered more frequently if there was indeed more of a demand.
Thomas Blakely of the garrison's Transformation Stationing Management Office responded to a question about sports and parade fields on Clay Kaserne by explaining that transformation efforts are continuing to provide more options with one field already available on the North Side of Clay Kaserne, another in the works and multiple sports options to be available in Newman Village. He explained that planners are looking at also establishing a parade field on the installation in front of Building 1015.
"I'm proud today to be a Soldier to see you young Soldiers asking these tough questions," said Mustafa, encouraging all of them to show their unit pride and to help do that by competing on their unit sports teams.
"Thank you for being good sports," added Craig. "This is truly what it's all about. This is teamwork. … We want to thank you for your service."

I just installed wordpress on my localhost. And I want to migrate my site from Joomla to WordPress. First of all I want to test and prepare for working online.
Where is problem? I imported categories from Joomla SQL tables to WordPress SQL tables, but in administration show only first five categories of 79. Importing was good and processed without any error. Is that problem with WordPress or with wrong step?
Sorry about my English, hope you understand.
