Nichido Gorgeous Eye Pencil Girls Night Out
I just discovered Nichido Gorgeous Eye Pencil Girls Night Out.
These are colored eye pencils. Inexpensive at 80 pesos each and can be bought at Watson's and SM stores. On one end is the pencil tip while the other is the rubber smudger, though I find the smudger to be of no use as it is quite hard and just removes the color.
You can use these to line you upper and lower lash line for a fun look. On my oily lids they stay for 4 hours and fades a little bit. What I do is, I dab a bit of powder first on my lids prior to applying so it has something to grab on to, as my lids are pretty oily. I think one can use this as a base for eyeshadows, though I haven't tried that yet.
Swatches: 05 Vivid Turquoise, 06 Deep Plum, 01 Bronze Glow, 02 24 K, 02 Deep Blonde and 03 Cool Blue.
My favorites are Vivid Turquoise, Deep Plum and 24 K as these tend to show up more and makes for a fun, happy look. :)

Unleashing India's Innovation: Toward Sustainable and Inclusive Growth/ edited by Mark A. Dutz. Washington, DC: The World Bank, 2007.
Report Summary
India's becoming a top global innovator for high-tech products and services. Yet, the country is underperforming relative to its innovation potential. To sustain competitiveness, economic growth, and rising living standards over the long term, India needs to aggressively harness its innovation potential.
India is increasingly becoming a top global innovator for high-tech products and services. Still, the country is underperforming relative to its innovation potential —with direct implications for long-term industrial competitiveness and economic growth. This book focuses on inclusive innovation — knowledge creation and absorption efforts most relevant to the needs of the poor in India. This is in addition to the book's emphasis on how faster growth can be facilitated by promoting "new to the world" knowledge creation and commercialization—the traditional understanding of the term innovation—as well as through often underappreciated but even higher-impact "new to the market" diffusion and absorption of existing knowledge.
- Domestic R&D spending has never exceeded 1% of GDP.
- India's stock of scientists and engineers engaged in R&D is among the largest in the world.
- Only 16% of Indian manufacturing firms provide in-service training; firms that provide in-service training are up to 28% more productive.
- The sectors most open to competition have increased R&D spending the most.
- The informal sector accounts for roughly 90% of the workforce.
- Only 10-25% of general college graduates are suitable for employment.

Julia Michaels Fundamentals ExplainedSearching back again, I sense like I have accomplished a whole lot for currently being 21. For those who would have informed me Once i was fifteen yrs old creating in my area to the piano which i would be right here, I might have laughed with your facial area.
Julia Michaels has it. She's a rarity while in the business, and she will only increase from here. Whether it's driving the scenes or around the area, Michaels is right here to remain, and pop gods and goddesses alike are without end grateful.
Julia Michaels: I wrote "Difficulties" in all of 40 minutes. There was no going again in and re-composing nearly anything. I'm a very passive-intense individual and an incredibly non-confrontational human being, so anything I desire to say is in this article, subconsciously. I just can't say it.
Hit-creating songwriter Julia Michaels continues to be getting her career as a performer off the bottom fairly correctly this 12 months with the excellent singles "Challenges" and…
" That's the type of hook "Problems" offers inside the refrain: The words stray a bit through the straight defeat, grabbing your awareness and correctly earning a location in your most listened to playlist. Michaels sings,
"Right now, the two major topics which i discuss will be the psychological facet of me as well as sexual side of me, and that's since People are The 2 that I know best of myself, so Those people are the easiest to put in writing about. I feel a lot of the EP is going to be of that subject."

I acquired difficulties, and you bought 'em much too, so give 'em all to me and I'll give mine to you, bask in the glory of all our problems induce we bought the kind of adore it requires to resolve 'em.
There's a line in the Selena Gomez music Arms To Myself which is been termed probably the greatest pop lyrics more info of the latest situations - but she explained to me you improvised it. Is genuine?
Julia Michaels: I am an exceedingly jealous individual. My lows are seriously fucking reduced, and my highs are substantial. I'm very defensive.
. Slipping from acoustic guitar right into a rush of Digital creation plus a chantable refrain, the track captures a fleeting and fiery moment.
Republic Group President Charlie Stroll praised the songwriter in a very press launch asserting the signing. "From the initial day I satisfied Julia it had been obvious that she was not merely a author, but an exceedingly unique artist," Walk said.
The bass proceeds to defeat through the 2nd verse, accompanied by contrasting snaps. The lyrics of the 2nd verse are in which Michaels' songwriting prowess shines as a result of:
"I go to the place and check with them, and try and make them really feel serene," she explained, "And what comes about in that room stays in that room."

From a newspaper article about school enrollment:
"We can't withdraw students from our roles until after the 10th day."
Notice how I said, "enrollment," not something like "enrolement." That's because lists of students at schools are called "rolls," not "roles." "Roles" refers to parts in a play or movie, for example.

Saint Paul Public Library Wins Knight Green Line Challenge
"Borrow the Internet" project will offer loans of Wi-Fi hotspots with free Internet service
SAINT PAUL, OCTOBER 14, 2014 – The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation announced today that the Saint Paul Public Library's "Borrow the Internet" project was among sixteen winners of the Knight Green Line Challenge. The library received a $49,700 grant to increase Internet access in neighborhoods adjacent to the Green Line by lending out Wi-Fi hotspots from Rondo and Merriam Park Libraries. The library will launch "Borrow the Internet" later this year.
Twenty-two percent of Saint Paul households have no Internet service in the home. "Borrow the Internet" offers free portable Wi-Fi hotspots for the first time in Saint Paul. The hotspots will provide free Internet service that can be used 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, in any location.
A major project focus is providing Wi-Fi hotspots for Saint Paul Public Schools (SPPS) students who lack home Internet access and are using District-provided iPads. The library will offer iPad classes to parents of SPPS students to further support student and family learning. Other library cardholders will also be able to borrow hotspots to access the Internet outside of the library's open hours.
"Borrow the Internet" will be based at two libraries situated close to the Green Line: Rondo Library, at 461 North Dale Street, and Merriam Park Library, at 1831 Marshall Avenue.
With Internet service and a library card, Saint Paul residents can access vital digital learning resources, including live homework help, practice tests for the SATs, e-books and magazines, reference assistance, and more. By borrowing Wi-Fi, an individual can take the time to complete an online job application or an e-government form that must be submitted in one online session.
About the Knight Green Line Challenge
An initiative of Knight Foundation, the three-year, $1.5 million challenge is a community-wide contest seeking projects to make Saint Paul neighborhoods along the new Green Line even more vibrant places to live, work, play and visit. The first year of the contest drew 579 applicants. For more information and to see all the winning projects, visit: KnightGreenLineChallenge.org.

Many Kiwis may be thrilled with a new pathway to Australian citizenship - but there's already a little-known loophole to getting permanent residence, an advocacy group says.
A door has been opened for about 100,000 New Zealanders who have lived across the ditch for at least five years to apply for Australian citizenship.
The new route to citizenship was announced by Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull following talks with John Key in Sydney on Friday.
But Trans-Tasman organisation Oz Kiwi says there's a little-known type of permanent residence, called the Resident Return Visa, which is available to most New Zealanders who spent any amount of time in Australia before 1994.
Before September 1, 1994, any Kiwis how went to Australia were classified as "former permanent residents" under migrational laws.
"The RRV allows 'former permanent residents' to re-instate their permanent resident status," the group said on its Facebook page.
The law means it doesn't matter how long a New Zealander spent in Australia before the date, whether it was years or just a stopover, the group said.
"Its application process is quicker and simpler, it has no income requirements or health tests, and it is much cheaper - $360 rather than $3600."
Spokeswoman Joanne Cox told Radio New Zealand she got her Australian permanent residence based on a trip to the Australian open in 1994.
However, there is a catch: Those claiming the Resident Return Visa can't bring their families along and each member would have had to visit before 1994.
Most New Zealanders move to Australia under a special category visa which has excluded them from applying for citizenship since law changes in 2001.
That means they're unable to access a range of social services such as benefits and disability support.

Main automotive advances of the twenties included four-wheel brakes, safety glass for home windows, and pneumatic air-stuffed tires – to say just a few. Eighty years later it's simple to take as a right the foremost advances that came about in automobile engineering throughout the 1920's, as these are now everyday options on in the present day's vehicles. Nonetheless, many modern-day car manufacturers are revisiting and implementing design and engineering features that were first invented and used on 1920's cars – hybrid petrol-electric engine techniques are just one instance!
Below is the second product demonstration done in a typical appointment. It compares the slicing capabilities of the customers favorite steak knife (which they retrieve from their very own kitchen), to the CutCo on a regular basis desk knife. These things are loopy sharp!! British manufacturer Keating built a TKR that hit 260mph a few years in the past, so it has form for making very fast cars. Nevertheless, the more recent Keating Bolt garnered quite a bit of unfavourable press for high quality and out of date know-how.
The Ultima is a bargin for the velocity it does! You could possibly construct one up for similar to the ZR1 and it will be the worlds quickest accelarating and decelarating car! I think the term 'manufacturing' is used pretty loosely to explain some of these vehicles. I reckon the bugatti would trounce many others when it comes to construct quality and repeated efficiency. The SSC aero is pig ugly and was constructed to do one factor, break the top pace; no class, no passion, no integrity. The experience of somebody with transverse myelitis utilizing the Wahls Protocol to seek improvement of symptoms.
The effect is that the air, passing via the louvres and making sharp turns in its path to the carburetor, is freed of the key portion of the mud it bears, and at the similar time is warmed by its passage behind the valve cowl. You have received a alternative of hatchback and property bodystyles, each with large boots measuring 590 and 610 litres respectively.

The Federal Trade Commission asked Boeing ( BA) and Lockheed Martin ( LMT) for more information on their United Launch Alliance venture. The request is the FTC's second on the case, which concerns a
venture outlined in May in an effort to settle a late-1990s trade secrets case and combine rocket-launching operations. The companies said they believe the government needs more time to complete its review and reiterated their commitment to the transaction and the benefits it could bring to the U.S. government. "Bringing together two launch systems to provide assured access to space at lower cost and with greater efficiency is an extremely complex undertaking, and it is imperative that together we work through all the details to the satisfaction of all the government agencies involved," said Michael Gass, who is designated to become CEO of United Launch Alliance. ULA is a joint venture to be established by Boeing and Lockheed Martin to provide two families of expendable launch vehicles to U.S. government customers. It is to combine the production, engineering, test and launch operations associated with federal launches of Boeing Delta and Lockheed Martin Atlas rockets. The companies said the linkup will reduce annual federal costs by $100 million to $150 million. They added in May that the combination will result in some job losses among the combined operations' 3,800 workers, though they didn't say how many. As part of the deal, Boeing and Lockheed would settle outstanding disputes stemming from the Air Force's evolved expendable launch vehicle program. The Air Force in 2003 determined that Boeing had stolen Lockheed secrets. The findings led the Air Force to suspend three Boeing officials and increase Lockheed launches at the expense of Boeing ones.

The Slim Framework support forum has moved to http://discourse.slimframework.com. This Tender forum is no longer maintained or monitored.
nomenclature slim-dev
i was wondering about the new name Collection used for the old Helper\Set class, that i think could be a little confusing.
The class implements a common pattern (my quasi popo entities implements it as well), but i think the name collection should be used when sorting, appending, prepending elements(items) matters (see Doctrine Collections for example). zf2 and sf2 use the names parameter container / parameter bag for that. Could the name be changed to something like DataContainer?
sorry about the trivial matter, but naming stuff always take me a lot of time.
kind regards

I love them all ! Especially The Dress Shop ..
While you are squeezing into a new bathing suit, I have been searching for a new winter coat.
I am looking forward to my Pup regaining his strength after surgery and living for a very long time, and for visitors from the US to make up their minds when they will be here.
Did I mention shopping ? yes, between the winter clothes and things for the house.. shopping is my daily chore now. Poor me :)
I love your little birds..

Hi aBroad - Thanks for visiting, and happy shopping! You must be far away if winter is on the way.
Best wishes for your Pup's speedy recovery!

Great job.I love them too.When the sun's out, we can play! I'll be at the beach in about a fortnight for a destination wedding. No bikinis but dancing under the stars:))

Love them all - especially wig wars - it hit home since I just donated my hair ;)
Plus having it all - can't . . . can we?
But the birds are so cut and Nut-n-Honey...
Like I said, I love 'em all. :)

All great (so great, in fact, I can totally picture your work illustrating magazine articles, etc.), but the wig wars one cracks me up! Your work needs to be in front of an art director!!! : )
- June 10, 2011 at 5:46 AM
- ICQB said...
Ooh, I LOVE everything you've been up to! It looks like you learned a lot of interesting things - I love the map of Teotihuacan, looks just like what something on a tourist pamphlet. You have SO much talent!
Hope you get some nice, relaxing beach time in!
- June 10, 2011 at 6:10 AM
- MG Higgins said...
These are all wonderful! You've been spending your time very creatively. I agree with Ara and hope you're getting your portfolio in front of art directors.

Keats - Dancing under the stars at the beach sounds amazing! Enjoy the wedding.
Kim - I hope you post a picture of your new, shorter 'do!
Ara - Thanks! I'd like to illustrate for magazines or just about anything. I'm working on getting enough work together in a consistent style, then figure out where to go from there. :)
ICQB - I thought the map assignment would be dreadful, but I ended up having so much fun with it.
As for the beach, the June Gloom has set in, but sunny days can't be far off!
MG - Thanks! I keep working with that in mind. If I could just keep pesky practical matters from getting in the way...

That is a fun, summery illustration!
I am taking two graduate courses in the next three weeks, so basically I've been reading and writing papers! What a crazy way to spend the beginning of the summer.

Beautiful, Adrienne! I love your birdies too!
I'm spending this month revising lots of pb and a couple chapter books. Next month I'll be submitting them. :) (fingers, toes and eyes crossed)

Such great drawings!
This summer, I'm finishing a YA that will be turned into a movie so I can quit both my teaching jobs and get an apartment on the Upper East Side that comes with laundry service and a devoted and honest staff.

Your illustrations made me feel all summery and happy. I've been writing, so am just now looking up from my computer to notice how beautiful it is outside. Now it's time to feel some sun and walk on the beach.

I like those bright colors too, and the associations they have with summer. Summer has pretty much bypassed us here in Scotland.
I've been working this summer, at a number of jobs. Which sounds a little depressing, but it's actually been a great summer. Working has made me want to write again -- there's something about knowing that I don't have enough time to really inspire me.

If you're anything like the team at The Amazing Blog, you'll already have put on the estimated five pounds that most people rack up over the festive season. And with Christmas still nine days away, and a number of social events to get through beforehand, as well as the big day itself, it doesn't take a mathematician to calculate that your skinny jeans will barely get past mid-thigh come New Year. And with grey and dismal mornings and dark nights a-plenty, the thought of a trip to the gym is more nauseating than a bumpy cab ride home following some serious over indulgence at the office Christmas party. However, wanting to avoid morphing into Waynetta Slob and living out the rest of my days in elastic- waisted trousers, I have thus decided to experiment with a bit of seasonal ice-skating at the capital's top spots. And while I may have neither the grace nor the poise of her Royal Hotness, aka Pippa Middleton, who was recently spotted gliding across one of London's ice rinks, I can at least go on to indulge in the mince pies and mulled wine on offer guilt free, knowing that a skate session will have burnt some much-needed calories.
The grand courtyard at Somerset House, complete with magnificent Christmas tree decorated by non-other than Tiffany's, is certainly one of the most beautiful ice rinks in London. With a skate school offering lessons for beginners, children and disabled people as well as late night skates and club nights, Somerset House caters for people of all ages and is certainly a lovely festive treat for the family. The resident Tiffany's shop sells yummy sweets and cakes as well as ornaments and gifts and is perfect for a bit of post skate shopping!
If, however, you're yet to experience Hyde Park's Winter Wonderland Christmas extravaganza, then why not see one of London's most beautiful parks decked out in all its Christmas finery? As well as an ice-rink they also have a whole host of fairground rides, a Santa Land and a festive Christmas Market, all of which are perfect for anyone on a budget as entry to the site is completely free.
Last, but certainly not least, is the Natural History Museum's ice rink, set against one of the most stunning back drops in London. The Christmas trees are decked with thousands of Christmas lights, adding to the jovial atmosphere and the bar overlooking the ice will warm your cockles with a festive mulled wine or hot chocolate.
Happy skating!

Last month I talked about the different ways I usually deal with writers' block. Now comes the sequel article I promised, looking at some of the weirdest/funniest/most unique cures that other writers use.
First things first. Some updates on Million Eyes and the Million Eyes Short Stories. Also, I'm working on something new…
Million Eyes and the Million Eyes Short Stories — latest news
Just over 90 pages of Million Eyes have been fully proofed by all three of my proofers and corrected/tweaked by me. I'm waiting on one of my proofers to come back to me with the remainder so I can continue with corrections on the rest of it. I've also submitted it to a number of novel opening chapter competitions.
I posted on Sunday about the fact that Who is Rudolph Fentz? and Eryl Mai's Dream, two of the Million Eyes Short Stories, are due for publication in Storgy and Dark Tales respectively. I don't have a date for Dark Tales yet, but Storgy will be publishing Who is Rudolph Fentz? on August 23rd.
Apart from that, I'm waiting to hear about a bunch of other competitions and magazines that I've submitted stories to, and keeping everything crossed.
Something is brewing…
Funnily enough, I was complaining last month that I'd had writer's block for years about what comes after the Million Eyes trilogy. I mentioned having a bunch of half-baked ideas for new novels, but none that were developed enough for me to be excited about them.
But Million Eyes is basically done. The first one, anyway. I'm not going to resume work on the second book (of which I have a full initial draft) until/if the first book is published and successful enough to justify me working on the second book.
That means I need something else. Getting past this block has become a necessity because I need to be writing, fiction I mean. Otherwise I'll go mad. Fiction writing isn't just a hobby I'm trying to make into a career. It's something I have to do, just like eating and sleeping.
The next stage of the journey for Million Eyes is going to be as boring and mind-numbing as doing job applications. It's where I send off Million Eyes to as many literary agents as I can find. I've done it before. It isn't fun. The fun part's over.
I. Need. Fun.
Enter my new novel. At last I've really, actually cracked it. I worked out that the reason I made Million Eyes work for me as a writer is that it had tons of ideas from tons of sources all amalgamated together into a complex plot that never lets up. Which means there was plenty of stuff to sink my teeth into, and I never got bored writing it.
I realised I needed to do the same thing with my new novel, and I'm pleased to say that it's just as packed with stuff as Million Eyes was.
What's it about? That's what you really want to know. Well, so far I've written 7,000 words of concepts and plot/character outlines and only 1 page of the actual book, so I'm not willing to say too much just yet.
What I will say is that it's a high fantasy novel (i.e. set in a world that isn't Earth, a conscious decision on my part after the colossal amounts of historical research I had to do for Million Eyes). It's not going to be your typical medieval, swords-and-sorcery, Game of Thrones-style universe, but will have elements of it. It's also not going to be steampunk or contemporary, but again will have elements of both. And it will, like Million Eyes, be a conspiracy thriller (but of course!).
I'll reveal more as it starts coming together…
Top 5 cures for writer's block
Now these aren't my top 5 cures. In my last article, I talked about the things I do to cure writer's block. However, these are some of the most interesting cures I've found, so I might try a few of them next time I come down with a block…

Decided: May 18, 1961.
SMITHv.BARNHART ET AL.
Appeal from the Baltimore City Court (ALLEN, J.).
The cause was argued before Brune, C. J., and Henderson, Hammond, Marbury and Sybert, JJ.
[225 Md Page 393]
Nellie Smith was injured while riding as a passenger in an automobile driven by Charles B. Caperton in a westerly direction on Pratt Street, in Baltimore City, when it collided at the intersection of Pratt and Monroe Streets with a tractor trailer operated in a southerly direction by Ellwood Barnhart, and owned by the C.V. Transport Company. Traffic at the intersection was controlled by a conventional automatic traffic light, which was operating in good working order at the time of the accident. She brought suit against the operators of both vehicles and the owner of the tractor trailer, the appellees here. In response to a demand for admission or denial filed by the appellee Caperton, the appellant answered admitting that at the time the automobile in which she was a passenger entered the intersection the automatic traffic signal was green in favor of Caperton.
On May 9, 1960, Caperton moved the court to enter a dismissal in his favor under the pleadings and admissions. This motion was heard in chambers by Judge Allen who, on that date, granted the motion and entered judgment absolute in favor of Caperton for costs of suit. Later, on the same day, a jury was impaneled and the case was tried as to the remaining defendants. The jury, on May 10, returned their verdict in favor of the defendants Barnhart and C.V. Transport Company. On May 10, 1960, judgment nisi on the verdict was entered and on that date plaintiff filed a motion for judgment N.O.V. and in the alternative for a new trial as to all defendants. On June 6, 1960, the judge denied the motion for new trial, and judgment on the verdict was made absolute in favor of the defendants Barnhart and the Company for costs of suit. On June 29, 1960, the appellant noted an appeal to this Court from both judgments.
On this appeal the appellant seeks reversal, contending (1) that Judge Allen's ruling on the motion to dismiss by Caperton was in error and, (2) that the verdict of the jury with regard to Barnhart and the C.V. Transport Company was against the weight of the evidence.
Appellee Caperton in this Court filed a motion to dismiss the appeal as to him because the order for appeal was not filed within thirty days after the entry of judgment in his favor. Maryland Rule 812 a provides that an order for appeal shall be filed within thirty days from the date of the judgment appealed from. The order for appeal was filed June 29, 1960, more than thirty days after the judgment in favor of Caperton on May 9. The judgment of May 9, 1960, in favor of Caperton was rendered by the trial judge on the pleadings and admissions as a summary judgment pursuant to Maryland Rule 610 d 1 and was a final and absolute judgment. The court directed that a "judgment absolute" be entered in favor of Caperton in contradistinction to a judgment nisi as provided in Rule 564 b, where a case is tried by the court without a jury. The appellant contends that her motion for judgment N.O.V. and in the alternative for a new trial, filed on May 10, 1960, which was not denied until June 6, 1960, prevented the thirty day period for appeal from beginning to run until the latter date. The appellant's motion was timely as to the judgment nisi in favor of Barnhart and the Transport Company, Rule 567 a, but it did not affect the final and absolute judgment in favor of Caperton. The summary judgment rule, 610 supra, makes no provision for a judgment nisi so that the thirty day period within which to appeal began to run from the date of the entry of the judgment in favor of Caperton on May 9, and was not tolled by the filing on May 10 of the motion for judgment N.O.V. or in the alternative for a new trial. The noting of the appeal on June 29 was too late, and under these circumstances Caperton's motion to dismiss the appeal must be granted.
As to the appellant's second contention that the verdict of the jury with regard to Barnhart and the Transport Company was against the weight of the evidence to such an extent as to be reversible, the appellant in her brief cites no cases or authority
[225 Md Page 395]
of any sort in support of her claim. She noted no exception to the charge of the court to the jury and her appeal against these appellees raises no question of law. She merely argues that the verdict of the jury was against the weight of the evidence. This is the same argument that might have been, and probably was, made to the trial judge who refused to set aside the verdict of the jury. In her argument in this Court she seems to take the position that the trial court in denying a new trial abused his discretion in denying her motion. We find no showing of any facts which would take this case out of the general rule that the denial of a motion for a new trial is not appealable. Maryland Lumber Co. v. Legum, 197 Md. 483, 80 A.2d 34.
Appeal dismissed as to appellee Caperton, judgment affirmed as to other appellees, costs to be paid by the appellant.

For those of you who don't like reading a lot, I will post my main questions first, then the real post:
1) What supplement should I take if I want to be able to POP A PILL A FEW HOURS BEFORE SEX for mega-wood? Here's the catch: I do not want accelerated heart beat and possible dizziness as a side effect, which I BELIEVE cancels out Viagra and Yohimbe. Also, no L-Arginine or NOX2 because those, in my experience, take some time to build up in your body and cannot simply be taken prior to sex without previous build up.
2) Do guys have cycles like girls, because my dick is acting like a bitch.
Here's the story:
Recently I have been having sex with my gf, but I have been lasting shorter and shorter. This is something I understand and accept, and can remedy by taking it slow or doing certain positions. But last night, I couldn't get it fully hard. There was no excuse really, physically or mentally speaking. It got me pissed off because I pride myself on being able to go whenever i want. I still don't feel horny today.
Is there something like male sex cycles, where our dicks don't operate right once in a while? I have been getting plenty of rest and stuff. Not much stress or anything. So I don't know what it is.
Also, just in general, I'd like to be able to get ROCK HARD erections all the time. I am only 19, and usually I do get hard erections, but not ROCK HARD, and I am interested in a supplement that does this under the restrictions provided in question 1 above. Any help would be much appreciated because i am getting DAMN frustrated :( .

In short, they paint artificial eyes. It sounds easier than it is, since as with real eyes, no two are exactly the same.
Gold reclaimers
They scour old teeth for fillings, melting the gold from them with broken gold jewelry into tiny gold pellets, which are then resold to jewelers.

Ability to add existing subcontractor users from an existing database to a new project. Taking our heathrow field view projects as an example, we have the need to add the same recipients on an existing project to a new project which we would like to do by looking them up on a database rather than trying to invite them again which does not seem to work very well. Last time we tried to invite an existing recipient with the same email address to a new project, the system somehow created a new user ID for the same email address which it was not supposed to do.

More later.
Elizabeth and I were eight years old when we got our first American Girl dolls for Christmas in 1995. Several of our friends had them already, but they were all girls slightly older than us. Claire and Erica had Kirsten. Kathleen had Felicity. Our Sunday School teacher had Samantha. We couldn't wait! We got the catalogs in the mail beginning in Spring 1995. Elizabeth wanted Kirsten . . . blond, blue eyes (she's always been keen on blond dolls!). Not me. Addy, the escaped slave girl, was brand new --- and I was totally in love with her! $82.00 for a doll was a lot of money back then, so these were serious toys to put on your Christmas list. But our Mom and Dad were wonderful and made it work so that two long white boxes were under the Christmas tree that morning! As of right now, I can't find a photo of us with Kirsten and Addy that day, but here is a picture showing us one year later (on Christmas Eve of 1996). Mom had just given us new homemade dresses for them, and they are proudly showing them off to the camera.
Addy has been my special friend ever since. In fact, just a few weeks ago, Elizabeth and I wondered if we shouldn't decide to part with our American Girl dolls. But I couldn't. Not with all of them, anyway. Addy is just too special. She and Kirsten are now 23 years old and still look great for their age. Here are some photos taken just this afternoon --- and you can see that Addy is still wearing the same dress! She has other options, but this is really her favorite.
Click on any thumbnail photos to enlarge.
On Christmas Day of 1996, one year after Kirsten and Addy's arrival to the snow covered porch at Ruth Avenue, two more white boxes waited under the tree. Felicity and Samantha were added to the happy group, and we now had the perfect amount of dolls for tea parties and any imaginable play. This is everyone that afternoon.
I didn't take pictures of Felicity today, but she still looks pretty good. Her hair has faded a bit and almost all of the color on her face has faded, but this seems to be common with Felicity dolls of her age. The pictures on the left and right below show her (taken quickly a couple weeks ago) and Samantha as they look today. The center picture shows them as they looked in late 2000 or early 2001.
All was wonderful and happy, and then it happened . . . a new catalog showed up in the mailbox announcing the September 1997 release of a new historical American Girl: Josefina. I LOVED her! Almost as much as Addy. But thinking of getting a third doll for the third Christmas in a row seemed like an awful lot to hope for. We woke up that Christmas, and even though she had been on my list, there was no long box under the tree. But Mom had it all planned! She really had ordered Josefina a month earlier, and Dad had the box all wrapped and hidden upstairs. They brought it down at the very end of the morning, and I can still remember the feeling of opening her and the amazing smell, which I think was due to the little leather moccasins (she still smells like it a bit!). So far, I haven't turned up a picture of her from that Christmas either, but it must be in an album somewhere. She's worn a variety of outfits over the years, and these photos show some of them. She needs her braid fixed soon, so more photos of her will come one of these days.
Click on any thumbnail photos to enlarge.
That was our collection for a while, and we had great fun. Mom made amazing clothes for them, and we took them on outings, had doll parties, school days, etc. The catalogs stopped coming, and we gradually played less and less and did more admiring. The dolls were all in a glass-front cabinet in our room, and we still changed them and posed them. Then, in 2000, a catalog showed up out of the blue with the newest historical character, Kit. She had a short blonde bob and freckles. So, you guessed it, we had to place an order. We were old enough by this time to have some money of our own, plus we had a garage sale and made enough money that way for each of us to order our own Kit. They arrived in a large box, along with a pair of aviator outfits that looked really cute on them! Mom also made some outfits for them. They were renamed and now called "Patty" (seen in cowboy outfit) and "Amanda" (in the pink birthday dress).
Seven dolls seemed like plenty, and we really didn't have any thoughts of adding others. In fact, they've been put away until recently --- when we decided to pull them out, go through them and decide what to keep. Thinking to sell Kirsten and Samantha, I've been doing some research into pricing, etc. In the process, I found an ad of Craigslist for a Kaya doll for $20.00. How could we resist that. Elizabeth had always liked her and really wanted one. She has loose limbs (due to stretched elastic inside), but so do the Kit dolls. Elizabeth is going to re-string the two Kits and figured it wouldn't be any problem to add Kaya to the group. So, we drove out and picked up the newest addition. The picture at left shows her as we got her. Her hair definitely needed the ends trimmed and a new hair-do. She didn't want to spend the rest of her life with those two long braids in her way! So, I studied websites by people kind of enough to show hair tutorials to those of us who have never touched the hair-dos on their own American Girls. And on a Sunday afternoon, when I was feeling brave, I decided to give it a go. The photos below show her as she looks today. Oh, and she's been renamed "Leonor" (called "Leo" or "Nora") after a very special relative.
So, that's a quick introduction to our group of American Girl dolls as they stand now!
More later.
For the last couple of weeks, Mom has been cleaning out her dresser full of old linens. There were just too many to fit inside, so it was high time to sort through and weed out a bit. Some we've sold, some we've donated . . . and some we're trying on eBay.
Well, I thought I'd post pictures of this cute little child's dresser scarf, since I can only find one other result in any online searches for something similar. This was made by the George Shamyer Company, a New York textile (linen) importer since at least 1917. This particular piece is marked "C. 1953 Geo. Shamyer & Co Inc." The only other result coming up online seems to be a matching dresser scarf depicting Little Red Riding Hood. Our runner here shows the classic bedtime story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
Shamyer was quite an interesting figure and very well known in his day. Sadly, there are hardly any online results for him today. So, here is a bit of nostalgia for those Mid-Century linen buffs . . .

Click on any of the photo thumbnails to enlarge them.
We picked the real necessities: a large paper shopping bag with handles, a small paper bag from a park gift shop, park maps for each of the four WDW parks and Disney Springs (as well as a generic one for the whole of Walt Disney World Resort), four souvenir postcards, five Fastpass ride tickets, a map of each doll's chosen Disney Resort, and a Disney Autograph book. The maps unfold just like the official ones you get at the parks (see the sixth photo below).
The autograph book is the real fun piece. I wanted something that looked like the real thing, so I made the cover in such a way that it looks and feels like the shiny covers on the real books. There are forty pages inside . . . but what is the most impressive thing is that it is filled with 45 Disney character autographs!!! Elizabeth took care of that part, and it just goes to prove that Josefina is obviously willing to stand in a LOT more lines than I am! She even has the signatures of Anna and Elsa. It fits right down in the little Disney Parks gift bag, along with a map from whichever park I care to imagine Josefina having visited to purchase her autograph album.
For the souvenir postcards, Josefina picked up a generic Disney card from each of the four parks. Her FastPass tickets are from Space Mountain, Soarin', Peter Pan's Flight, Winnie the Pooh and Star Tours. I was really hoping to make one for the Seven Dwarf's Mine Ride, but I couldn't find a picture of a paper fastpass for that one . . . maybe they don't make the paper slips for it anymore, but if anyone ever has one and gets a picture of it, I'd really appreciate it if they'd share it!
I also wanted one of the resort maps for the little souvenir set . . . the problem came in trying to decide which resort Josefina would choose. Grand Floridian hosts the huge Easter Egg display, so that seemed like a good choice. That was, until I saw the map for Pop Century. It's so colorful and cute that Josefina can't decide where to stay. Anyway, I printed all kinds of resort maps in her size, so she and her friends have a lot of choices now!
So, that is the set of American Girl doll Walt Disney World souvenirs so far. I'd like to make a pin trading lanyard eventually, also find a plush Mickey Mouse her size (am thinking a plush key chain would work for that).

Oliver: The Happy Easter Bunny
It's Oliver's 13th birthday today! And, it's the first time that his birthday actually falls on Easter! Very appropriate, since his nickname is "The Bunny" --- so, today he's a real Easter Bunny!
All in all, Oliver is rather unaffected by his birthday. He was really hoping for a whole can of Henry's kitten food to himself, but since he doesn't expend energy like a kitten, he settled for Turkey flavoured Merrick food. :) Happy Birthday, Oliver!
Well, another needle-felted doll is finished. I started him in January and actually got him done in record time! This is Oin, another dwarf from The Hobbit film trilogy. He is one of the oldest dwarf characters and will be holding an ear horn . . . at a later date. Elizabeth and I plan to sculpt an ear horn out of clay and paint it, but that may be a bit before we get to it. He is one of the taller dwarves, standing at 9-1/4" tall. He weighs 4-1/4 ounces and took approximately 64 hours of work to complete.
Oin was a really fun doll to make and one of the characters that I've been looking forward to felting for quite a while. In the end, it turned out that he is made of all natural-colored, undyed fibers --- save for his skin tone and a Merino underskirt that does not show unless the doll is tipped upside down. (I just can't stand tipping a doll upside down and seeing all the way up the legs!) The coat is made of American Buffalo fiber with just enough wool carded in to keep it firm for felting. The coat trim is made from Camel Cashmere, and the boots are Coopworth wool with Brown Tasmanian Polwarth soles. His hair is also wool.
Perhaps the neatest part of him, though, is the Stansborough wool! Stansborough is a special breed, found on just one farm in New Zealand, and is the special wool used in all the wool fabric and yarn in the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit films! This makes Oin very authentic. :) I've never felt wool as soft as the curls on his boots! His pants are made of a piece of woven fabric from the Stansborough looms, his boot tops are made of some scraps of Stansborough pelt, and his hoodie is knitted from single-ply Stansborough yarn. The hoodie is really the prize piece on this doll, since it was such an undertaking. To keep it from being to large in scale and too bulky on a doll of this size, I used the single-ply yarn (thinner than crochet thread) on 0000-gauge dollhouse scale knitting needles. That means really tiny work . . . and twenty hours of knitting! But it seems well worth it when viewing the final result.
Here are some pictures of him, all you have to do is click any to enlarge. More later . . .
Henry at 11 Weeks and 3 Days Old
Doing the best job we can at aging Henry from the various signs of kitten-hood, we've placed his birthday at August 18th. We might be off a bit, but it's worked out to that for more than three weeks now, no matter how we try to figure out his age --- so, we've settled on that one. That being the case, here are some pictures that show him at 11 weeks and 3 days old.
Henry loves to eat. The good thing about him, though, is that he is NOT picky. He likes a real variety, whether it's kitten food, chicken, turkey, pumpkin or scrambled eggs. This is the first week where he is able to digest his food like a real cat, because his intestinal bacteria seems to be now developed. To help him through that stage, we had been feeding him boiled chicken, pumpkin and scrambled eggs. Well, he has developed such a taste for all of them that he loves a variety. Check out the last picture in the slideshow above, and you'll see his little plate of all flavors. Of course, he doesn't really know that there have been probiotics on his food lately, so we won't add that to his favorite list.
One thing that Henry would love is a sleeping buddy. None of the big cats are ready to let him into their beds during nap time quite yet, so the little fellow has to sleep by himself. To help him feel better about that, I gave him a fluffy plush dog that I have (named "Charlie George"), and it makes a great companion. Henry loves to cuddle and bite him and sleep with him!
Right now, Henry's biggest problem is teething. When they aren't actually breaking through, he is a very sweet little fellow and self entertaining. When his teeth are coming through, though, he has to chew everything and he gets mean. Usually he can be distracted with a dangly toy, etc., but it's quite a job! Can't wait for all his little teeth to be in. More later.
Homemade Frodo Blankets
They are finished! Mom and I finished Elizabeth's blanket a couple nights ago, and last night we finished mine! It's no secret that the two of us are really crazy about "Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit". Anything Middle Earth is really enjoyed around here. We've got swords hanging in our room (all replicas of the movie props) and even have a full-size replica of the Black Arrow hanging on our beam! Well, we were really thrilled to find out earlier this year that some fabric was released at JoAnn's with "Lord of the Rings" patterns. One of them was a flannel in blacks and browns with the logo and Frodo's picture and name all over it. Cool! We bought a bunch of it (actually, the first time we found it, we had a great coupon and bought the whole bolt!) and decided to make large throw/blankets out of it. We both like to cuddle under a blanket when watching movies, and we've been meaning to make some for years. This seemed the perfect opportunity. No other flannel really seemed to look like a great match, because we really wanted it to look like a "Frodo blanket", not a pieced quilt or anything. After discussing some different options, I told Mom that I really wanted to try making it out of the one fabric. So, that's what we did! They may not win any prizes for construction or originality, but they are amazing!!
These pictures show the blanket. It's the same on both sides. We didn't want batting or anything fluffy inside, so we decided to use something different. Elizabeth's has a white 100% cotton table cloth in there, which makes it very drapey and cuddly. Inside mine, I picked an old cotton "summer-weight" blanket that we've had for years. It's really thin and cuddly --- and absolutely no static in the winter! They are quite large, as you can see. That is my double bed above, and it spreads out to cover it (not draping down, of course). We didn't want anything too small, because it's nice to totally cuddle up in a chair.
The flannel isn't the quality of good quilting stuff. It's like the typical JoAnn's "Snuggle" flannel, so lower quality fabric. We pre-washed and dried it before sewing the blankets. Doing this on high in each machine makes sure that everything shrinks as much as it is going to before actually putting anything together. The blanket and tablecloth, of course, were also totally pre-washed and dried as well. To make the blankets wider than the yardage (which was about 40" wide once washed and dried), we cut three 2-yard lengths. One of those lengths, we took and cut in half the long way (making a piece approximately 2-yards long by 20" wide). Then, we sewed a 20" wide piece to each of the full 40" pieces. The finished blankets are about 60" wide by 75" long. They are each slightly different, due to the different inside layers and the seams needed for those. It was a lot easier to sew the flannel to the cotton blanket, because the pieces of fabric stuck to each other. The cotton tablecloth was pretty tricky, because everything was prone to sliding around.
All in all, it was really fun to make these, and the results are so cuddly. I can't imagine sitting without this! It's also really exciting to have the Frodo theme. We can't wait until our annual "New Year's Trilogy Week" where we take five days to watch all the Hobbit movies and Lord of the Rings films in order. (We watch "Two Towers" and "Return of the King" back-to-back on New Year's Day, because they really are better when seen in a row.)
So, that's the newest project we've been working on. Lots more sewing to do, but most of it will probably have to wait until after Christmas. We've got a trip to Florida coming up soon, too, so looking forward to that! More later.
Why does the time have to change?
Why, oh why, does the time have to change??? I just can't stand this time of year --- and just when I get used to it, the time will come for the clocks to move forward again!
We've been busy. Henry is teething. Things have been a little rocky in the cat world. Henry is adjusting to life in the house pretty well, and the other cats are starting to get used to him and establishing their "pecking order". Sammy is still nervous, but it takes him a while to get used to any changes. Years ago, I decided to put a throw pillow on my bed. It was two weeks before he could even go near the bed again! What's been sad is the fact that the big cats have some kind of virus or something. It's something that swells their breathing passages and throats up, making it difficult for them. We actually took Sammy to the vet (his first time since getting fixed) and even had him x-rayed. Nothing wrong inside, no obstructions or anything like that. So, it's just a matter of waiting it out, making sure they eat and drink and sleep. Lots of praying, most of all!
Henry is now eleven weeks old, getting bigger and really teething! He chews everything. You can't leave anything around that might be chewable. We have put all kinds of things down for him to play in and chew on, and he's enjoying his new life. He really misses his mother, and since none of the big cats are willing to cuddle with him yet, I gave him a furry plush dog that I have. He seems to really like that and curls up with it quite often.
Henry is particularly cute when sleeping, so here are a few pictures. You can click on them to enlarge to full size.
Aside from the cats, we have gotten a little time this week to do other things (though not too much, because the felines have really been taking a lot of time). Elizabeth spent a day in the kitchen working on baking. She made some fabulous bread, but the best were . . . bagels! They were amazing! She even made a salt bagel for me. Totally scrumptious.
While Elizabeth was busy baking, Mom and I actually got some time to sew! It was SO fun!! We're working on making blankets for TV watching. The two of us really want blankets made of the "Frodo" flannel that we got this Summer. We almost finished one blanket already and the other is about half finished. I'll post photos of those as soon as they're done!

For you Jesus Christ came into the world. For you he lived and showed God's love. For you he suffered the darkness of Calvary and cried at the last, 'It is accomplished.' For you he triumphed over death and rose to new life. For you he reigns at God's right hand. All this he did for you, though you do not know it yet.

White Button-up: Thrifted
Tank, Tights: Target
Shorts: Forever 21
1950s/60s Purse: Vintage, Thrifted
Necklace: Thrifted
Sling-back flats: Etsy
Oxfords: Buffalo Exchange
So.... before I go and start my rambling on this outfit, may I just say: I LOVE my new purse! Isn't it it just lovely?! I FINALLY managed to buy this purse after keeping my eye on it for a few months now. I saw this beauty while thrifting with my mom a few months ago at our local thrift store. It had been sitting on the shelf, being ignored by everyone, and collecting dust. But because I saw it's true beauty I could not pass it on any longer. The purse is from the 50s early 60s, and it has a two pockets and one in the middle that closes with some king of gold hardware. I'm not really sure what you call those but I'm sure you guys know what I'm talking about. So this Saturday, I snatched it up and made it my own! Not only did I buy a few other goodies at this this thrift store but, my mother and I managed to go to a new thrift store in Petaluma and boy, did we score big!
At the one in Petaluma, I managed to acquire this beautiful hand painted necklace. I'm not sure from what time period it could be, but I knew I had to have it. Plus, it has flowers on it and you guys know of my love for anything floral.
So as for the outfit, I had been wanting to get shorts like this for a while now and I finally bit the bullet, when I was shopping at Forever 21 with my friend. I am really liking the sorts with stockings trend because it allows me to show some leg, without REALLY showing leg. Ha ha. Do you guys like it? Oh and as for my white button-up, I'm trying to adjust to it because I don't really like to wear white but people tell me it looks good on me, so I may just wear it a bit more. Please share your opinions with me on the matter and thanks to all my followers who continue on supporting my blog, even when I haven't been posting regularly. I really appreciate it!!!

I have my own toothpaste tube. My family shares one, and I have my own. And I HIDE it. Not because I am selfish and don't like sharing (I am actually really easy going and done mind sharing at all. If you need something and I have it, you can take it. No worries), I have my own tube because I am a picky toothpaste person.
Let me tell you about it. You know how you squeeze from the middle, NOT HAPPENING WITH MY TUBE! No way, you squeeze from the end. And as the toothpaste goes down, you bend it over, making it so it is easier to squeeze from the end.
The hard crusty stuff around the cap, and covering the hole making it impossible to get any toothpaste out? That is also banned when it comes to my tube. No hard toothpaste, no need to clean the hole in order to squeeze out the magical cleaning agent. Everything is perfect.
With my tube the cap goes right back on when you are done using it, not in the garbage the first time it gets unscrewed.
Well, my family ran out of toothpaste, so I shared my tube with them. everything seemed to be going well, every time I brush my teeth I fix the tube so that it is seems it is being squeezed from the bottom, there was no hard toothpaste, and the cap was getting placed next to the tube until I went to the bathroom and screwed it back on.
It seemed I could live with this sharing the toothpaste thing.
Until a couple days ago.
I couldn't find the toothpaste
No need to freak out, I am sure it is somewhere. As my brother walked past the bathroom I yelled out in a [sheer panic] very calm voice 'hey you have you seen the toothpaste?' his answer was something like 'I don't brush my teeth, I drink enough alcohol that my teeth get clean without it' or he may have said no, whatever you would like to think was his answer.
I then searched like a [crazy lady] really relaxed go with the flow person for this stupid toothpaste. And I found it. In the downstairs bathroom.
With the cap not screwed on.
Toothpaste (not yet hard) around the outside.
And squeezed from the middle.
Seriously, is my family trying to kill me here? I am trying to be nice and share MY toothpaste. Maybe sharing isn't what caring is all about, maybe being selfish and forcing your family to get their own toothpaste and you hiding your own tube is the way to go. I am sure that will show them I care.

If there were a heaven or after life, I do not want to go to as I already cannot stand all the sorrows in this world esp. in the middle east and Africa. Hence, my donations are not a bargain with God (or your God).
There are many funny things about donation.
I know some church goers' real reason of donation is buying a place in
the eternal life. If you're poor, you cannot go to heaven, right? I
believe in the new testament, but have a hard time on how they passed
stories in old testament when they had no paper and no language. My take
and it will offend a lot of folks. It could be passed via oral language or partly written by God as evidenced by the secret codes in Bible that I watched in the History Channel.
* Every year we have
disasters and a need to donate. I donated my small share in the
promotion by American Idol. I did not see it in my credit card after a
while. I donated again and it turned out I donated twice. Could be some
one tell me that I did not donate enough.
* On one of my
birthdays, I donated the difference between the bills from my expected
restaurant and the cheap 99. Did not satisfy my stomach but my spirit
and had sth to brag about here.
Jesus was absolutely correct that the rich had a hard time to go to heaven. However, today it could be different. For an example, which one of the following should go to heaven?
1. The rich man who got his wealth by studying and working hard. He does not donate a lot but pays his share of taxes and part of it is used to feed the poor.
2. The poor man who did not study and not work hard. He depends on government handouts.

January Birthstone: Garnet
Garnets come in a variety of colors but are best known for their deep red shade. January's birthstone is associated with faithfulness, sincerity, truth, and grace, and those born in this month are said to be loyal, devoted friends.
History of Birthstones
Chances are you can name your birthstone, but have you ever wondered how certain stones came to be associated with particular months? Most gem scholars trace the tradition to the Old Testament story of Aaron, whose breastplate was decorated with twelve precious stones, one for each of the twelve tribes of Israel. Over time, these stones were linked with certain powers and tied to particular astrological signs, and later to calendar months.
There are many variations of birthstone lists, including Mystical birthstones, which originate from Tibet and date back over a thousand years, and Ayurvedic birthstones, associated with ancient Indian medicine and beliefs. Birthstones have also been tied to ancient Pagan religions, and even to the collective wisdom of the legendary lost city of Atlantis.
The Modern birthstone list, perhaps the most universally known, was released by the American National Association of Jewelers and officially adopted in 1912. Whether you embrace birthstone lore, or look upon it with a skeptical eye, there is an undeniable appeal to collecting a beautiful gemstone that is reputed to hold special power, meaning, and good fortune just for you.

Find out how we helped this client to overcome the problems they had, the duration of the project it and the effect our work has had. Call 0845 652 2412 to book a FREE consultation.
|In Brief
|June 2010
Refitmyhome.com has been involved in the kitchen and bedroom industry for the last 20 years.
Instead of just supplying local customers Refit My Home have moved to provide an online service where customers are able to purchase everything in one place, but still enjoy the help and support of a small local business.
What problem(s) did the client have?
The client had a website which was very low on features and also attracted very few visitors. Therefore, it achieved very few sales compared to the potential they could achieve in their marketplace.
What actions were taken to solve the problem(s)?
Keyword research was vital to achieve a successful website marketing campaign, especially in a marketplace which contains household names with a large retail presence.
The website was designed to include features which made the products and services easy to find and use by its website visitors. For example, a Quick View was incorporated into the design, which enables customers visiting Refitmyhome.com's website to see product details from a list view and order samples quickly and easily.
Customers are also helped to find products by the use of a refined search facility, which enables them to filter the products in a category by their requirements, such as by dimensions and pricing. This helps the customer to find a suitable product easier and more quickly, making the overall experience more enjoyable, encouraging referrals and repeat visits.
What were the results?
Refitmyhome.com now pride themselves on being highly contactable, whether by phone, email or online chat, as well as having the ability to source the products their customers require.
As a result of proactive website marketing their monthly visits have climbed from approximately 500 per month to roughly 5,000 plus per month. Significantly their natural search traffic is up 434% owing to effective and successful website marketing.
The increased visits have contributed to an increase in revenue, up a staggering 795%.
"Splice Marketing worked very closely with me on our refitmyhome.com website. I am more than happy with the results. I've constantly received prompt responses to my queries and everything has come together beautifully. As a direct result, we will definitely continue to use Splice in the future."
"We have been pleased to see the increase in website visits and consequently revenue, achieved through website marketing. However, we have recently identified ways to further improve sales for Chris, which will involve some new designs for the website. Chris and the team at Splice Marketing are very excited about the outcomes, which we all believe the new features will bring Refitmyhome.com."

(Season your chicken, salt and pepper will do)

Slice Green Olives thin, set aside
Toast your roll slightly
Assembly - Slice your roll on the side, stuff it full with Shliced Chicken, spoon a liberal amount of sauce over the chicken, top with sliced Green Olives.
Serves 2
*Shliced: This is the word I've come up with for slice-shaving, much like how chicken is prepared asian style. Ready.....Cutting board, damp squeezed-out kitchen towel flat underneath (so the board won't skirt around on ya). The following is from a "righty" perspective, so if you are a lefty, reverse.
Lay the Chicken Breast, shiny plump side up, on your board. Looking down at the breast, you want the thick side on your right, and the skinny-pointed end on your left. Warning, my next statement involves touching raw chicken.....I TOUCH my food. Grab a hold with your left hand, turn your Chef's knife (the big one) at an angle, angling away from you... and Shlice on the bias, starting with the thick end. What you are going for? This should look much like old-timey shaving with a blade, the part where they sharpen the blade on a leather strap. The strap representing the Chicken breast, and the blade of course representing your chef's knife. Your chicken will end up thin and shaved. It will A, cook faster, B have more surface area to season, C the texture is much nicer. I'm a huge texture person, I want my food to taste good and feel good in my mouth.
**Note on Baguettes, buy them when you go to the grocery store - cut them into 6" pieces, shove'em in freezer bags and keep them on hand. When you need some bread, pull a couple out of the freezer and throw it in the toaster oven, or oven @ about 200 degrees for a couple minutes until defrosted. (It's like pretend fresh baked bread) I use them for toast with breakfast, garlic bread with dinner, sandwiches...whatever you need bread for. No waste, single serving, on hand, hot bread.
