I am on a big budget and of course, living in a rental apartment is to some extent somewhat transient, so decorating is a bit tricky. Especially when your living room's decor only consists of this:Cycling store/garage a living room does not make. Mind the stuff in the lower right hand corner, that's for recycling/Salvation Army.
First, I needed to figure out what the heck to do to my couch - as you can see in the photo, its brown with cream piping but those pillows are really ugly. I hate them, but they came with the couch. Not one to turn down free throw pillows.
Thankfully, I still read the Perfect Palette - not only are her inspiration boards great for weddings, but also for a newbie decorator and fair-isle knitting junkie like me! Thanks to her, I FINALLY figured out the perfect color pallete for my living room: brown, latte, ivory and shades of aqua/turquoise/blue to give it a bit of pop. Woo!
So now I have my color palette, I can slowly but surely turn this living room into a cozier space. According to my results on a design quiz I took in real Simple's March issue, I am a Cozy Casual/Sophisticated Chic combo, but more on the Cozy Casual (re: Pottery Barn) end of things. The kind of couch I have helps.
During an impromptu visit to Michael's today with my mom (she needed to pick up ribbon to make her godkid's Easter candles with for the anastassi, or midnight mass) I picked up some fake blue hydrangea (because I'm on a budget and I kill succulents, for pete's sake) and sorta arranged them in the tall glass vase that my wedding bouquet came with.
Total cost? $10 for the flowers, the vase was free, and I used some extra ribbon lying around just because. The ribbon is a really bright green, but with so many neutrals in the living room, I needed something bright. Seems like a bit of green is popping up, at the AAS conference this weekend, I picked up Liza Dalby's new book in hardcover for $10:
I love the idea of "coffee table" books and changing it up once in awhile - I have a few Japanese/Chinese art books and plan to change it up a bit.
We also need to change our rug - it has so many spots from spilled food that we cleaned up with the Tide To-Go pen but its pretty blah. The Aussie picked it up in his last moments of bachelorhood and while it's serviceable, its gotta go. Rugs are pretty pricey but I finally found one that works perfect with the color scheme I want: the DwellStudio for Target Floral Block Rug:I'd get it in April or May, but since we have Italy coming up, I am on a shopping moratorium (minus the Sheep and Wool festival in Maryland this May with my knitting group) till after August 19. But for the size, the price is good. Still need curtains - those I know will be in aqua. I already found the fabric for the pillows - its cream jaquard with an aqua damask print - at my local fabric store.
As for the walls - painting a rental is quite risky, and we have these gorgeous moldings; after staying with my friend J in Philly (whose apartment is GORGEOUS) I was inspired by her walls - her apartment has the walls in cream, but the moldings in bright white, so they stick out more. I really liked it a lot and remembered that when my dad fixed our bedroom, he had cream and white paint.
I proposed the idea to The Aussie and he seems all for it (heck the paint is free), we just need to find some time to do it. Unfortunately, our landlords did a crap job with the painting when we moved in. I'd also like to redo the kitchen - the walls cream, but our built-in cabinets white. We also need to put new lino tiles in the kitchen.
We are still on the lookout for a semi-affordable tv stand that is not from IKEA; any suggestions? Where do you look for design inspiration on a budget? I recently discovered Overstock.com's home section and it's fantastic; I am also planning to to a "travel/city" themed gallery wall once we move the tv back across our couch (it's in the corner since its not mounted to the wall but on our coffee table. I want that corner back to make a reading/knitting nook with a small armchair and my pharmacy lamp).

Uncharted Territory
by Anne Linington
11/22/2007 / Poetry
This new voyage on which you have begun
Is taking you into, as yet, uncharted territory.
It is a journey not 'cross distant seas,
Nor to foreign lands, but to deep within your self.
It is a time, during which you will discover hidden depths,
And strength you could never believe you possessed
On it you will make new friendships and deepen old.
You will discover new loves, new joys and new life
Things you may once have taken for granted
Will become so very precious
Like jewels mined from deep within earth's darkness.
Supported by loved ones near and far
You are strong enough for this your own odyssey
So go with fortitude to reach your appointed destination
that is you.
I live in the UK, and attend an evangelical Church of England, where I am training as a Reader, (lay preacher). I support the work of a Christian Healing Centre, and enjoy writing, particularly poetry.

It can be great for personal blogs and websites. It is a very simple and effective way to earn through advertising. You can easily make money by signing up and implementing their code on your blog.
Good side about infolinks:* Very easy to install. The sign up and approval process is very quick. Once you're ready to go, all you have to do is copy and paste a five line code into the Footer of your blog right before the </body> tag. After you've installed the code, Infolinks will start generating the intext ads on their own.
* Excellent user interface. It is so easy to customize the number of intent ads per page, the color, the genre of ads, and whether the links are double underlined or dotted. The user interface is the most customizable and user friendly interface I've come across.
* Didn't slow down my sites. As far as I can tell, I did not experience a slowdown in load time due to Infolinks. An occasional slowdown may have been due to the occasional overflow of traffic, but I don't think due to Infolinks. I am pretty sensitive when it comes to site speed.
The Down side about infolinks:* RPM isn't very high. RPM stands for revenue per thousand views. I averaged about $1 RPM vs. comparable RPM levels of $1.5-$2. For some advertising companies which can show relevant ads.
* Ad relevancy needs improvement. Sometimes very random anchor texts were underlined by Infolinks to link to a product. Furthermore, almost all the ads were about online trading or lawyers. It would be nice to have more relevant contextual ads.
* Your page might start looking cluttered. If you have some nice affiliate pages, or key articles with good converting affiliate links, your Infolinks which pays you $1 per thousand impressions might "crowd out" your much higher paying affiliate links. Imagine having Google Adsense + Infolinks + affiliate links on one page. It's easy to see how your reader might not choose the link you want.
* Your readers might start hating you. You might easily block out ads when viewing a website, but others might not be as adept. Even though its your website to do what you wish, it's good to take in the feedback from readers. I decided that I would rather sacrifice revenue from Infolinks to keep readers happy and have less cluttered pages.
Thank you for taking time reading this review. I also recommend the following articles:

The Football Association have announced that Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel has been officially charged with violent conduct after the Slovakian appeared to intentionally stamp on Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea during his side's clash against the Red Devils on Sunday.
The alleged offence went unpunished as it was not seen by referee Martin Atkinson or his assistants as it was committed just before the final whistle.
However, the FA decided to take action again Skrtel after reviewing the television footage of the incident.
"Martin Skrtel has been charged by The FA for violent conduct following an on-field incident which was not seen by the match officials but caught on video," read a statement on FA's official website.
"The charge is in relation to an incident involving the Liverpool defender and Manchester United's David de Gea which occurred in the 95th minute of Sunday's game."
The FA generally steps in when an incident is missed by the referee and his assistants during a Premier League game. A three-man panel consisting of former officials is asked to review the incident and whether the offence was worthy of a sending off.
Finally the particular player is only charged if all three members of the panel agree that the offence in question deserved a straight red card.
And the FA have confirmed that "In this instance, the decision by the panel was unanimous."
Skrtel, who has until 6 pm on 24 March 2015 to respond to the charge, will be handed a three match ban if he is found guilty of the alleged stamp. This means that the defender will be missing Liverpool's two important Premier League clash against Arsenal and Newcastle and the FA Cup quarter-final replay against Blackburn Rovers.
This will certainly prove to be a big blow for Liverpool, who are already without their captain Steven Gerrard, who received a straight red card for stamping on Ander Herrera during the Reds Premier League clash against Manchester United on Sunday.
Earlier Chelsea's Diego Costa was banned for three games after he was found guilty of stamping on Emre Can during the Blues' victory over Liverpool in the second leg semi-final of Capital One Cup at Stamford Bridge on 27 January.

RACISM IN ESSAYS Is an author's main purpose of writing only to entertain his readers? Authors sometimes use their literature to demonstrate their opinions about a certain issue. One of these topics may be racial and ethnic discrimination. We see how authors express their views about racism through the literatures "Walk Well, My Brother", "Lark Song", and "Cowboys and Indians". In "Walk Well, My Brother", Farley Mowat focuses on racism against the Eskimos in 1951. As the character of Charlie
I patrol the border for the department of homeland security and social problems will come up on a daily basis. With patrolling the borders comes encounters with racism. When working you may be subjected to this particular social problem and how people have continually created and constructed the meaning of racism and the hatred or intolerance of another race. It has been socially constructed and taught to us that we should not like illegal immigrants and fits the reflection theory which states that

Though some are mild and subtle, others are very strong but not shocking
Racism and Freedom of Expression Now more than ever we are able to witness racism at its most severe. With rising hostilities and racism between nations, inter – ethnic racism and institutional racism. Racism As the world becomes a smaller place and the with emergence of globalisation we may expect racism to be a thing of the past. However, this is not the case. For reasons I have trouble understanding, the world is coming to a point where racism is widespread
to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite"(Mandela). Racism is an ongoing issue that has occupied many years of American history. Even with great leaders, such as President Abraham Lincoln and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., who established a push to end slavery and inspired an entire revolution to eliminate racial discrimination, it seems that a successful eradication of racism is not an option. Today, we still see hate crimes such as the Rodney King case of Los Angeles
"Racism is still with us but it is up to us to prepare our children for what they have to meet, and, hopefully, we shall overcome." This statement was made by Rosa Parks in 1998. While some may say that this took place a long time ago, racism and the mentality of white supremacy is still very much alive. Racism can be dated back to the time of slavery and while it is true that slavery is over, many decisions today are still made based on the color of one's skin. The issue of racism, while it is
the issue of sport and ethnology, three major factors come to mind; prejudice, racism, and discrimination. These factors span across gender, ethnic, racial, religious, and cultural groups. In the following paragraphs, I will discuss how these factors have played a part in the evolution of sport in our society. The first issue tackled in this paper will be racism in sports, followed by prejudice and discrimination. Racism ?A definition of race might rely on an outward manifestation such as color
Racism has provoked inequality among Americans for centuries. Although it has been claimed to have dissolved, racism is still apparent in the very set up of our nation. It pulls apart the unity of our nation by forming groups that in time will break the equality and freedom given in America. The ideal of racism still exists in today's society, having found new ways to insert itself into our everyday life. As segregation and slavery have faded from American culture it is socially accepted that, with
Color discrimination occurs when a person is discriminated on their skin colour. Color discrimination happens when people different races or nationality. Sometimes Racism happens even when both people are the same nationality, because one is lighter or darker than the other. Colour discrimination is mainly very selfish and prejudice, shouting abuse and murdering of people that you don't know, for all they know you could turn out to be a best friend in the future. Some people just don't want black

Not too long ago African American people were segregated against based on the color of their skin.

Racism in Short Stories by john This is an essay i wrote for English Literature. My examples are from two short stories The Test', and After You My Dear Alphonse'. A Race is a population of humans distinguished from other humans. The most noticeable way to distinguish between races is by skin colour. In a white patriarchal society, like ours, race is used as a point of difference and discrimination to create power differences. The Test' and After You My Dear Alphonse' both challenge the
Aaron Riehle March 30, 2011 Racism Paper Prof. Thompson Racism is the systematic oppression and exploitation of human beings on the basis of their belonging to a particular racial group or people. "Systematic" indicates that we must look at the status of the group as a whole, and not at those few individuals who may have climbed a "ladder of success" in the white society. The word "systematic" also connotes practices and policies which are pervasive, regardless of whether they are intentional

Racism, Prisons, and the Future of Black America I came upon an article bearing the above title after entering the word 'race' into my web browser search bar. After skimming through the article, I became interested in the topic and decided it would be worthy for using in my Race in the Media Analysis. The topic mentioned is that of the staggering number of Blacks within American prisons. In the year the article was published (2000), the number of incarcerated Blacks were slightly over half of the
America is a country of great wealth and, often, greed, but it's also a worldwide known unique culture where meny seek freedom. America. Different ideas of our crazy non-traditional world flow in and out of meny meny people's minds each day. And not all of them are American thoughts. To meny, we are selfish and ignorant, as well as greedy. Thus may be true, but we have good qualities as well. Some (maybe lots) of countries recognize that we go over seas to help others
Cultural Critique Unfortunately, in this time and age, racism continues to be an issue in the American society, especially in the south. Since the introduction of slavery, many people have the belief that skin color determines someone's ranking in life. After the freedom of slaves, racism became a big problem in America. As a result, other races look down upon many different cultures and ethnic groups believing that they are superior to others. Racism has lead to people discriminate against one another

Saby December 16, 2012 Racism in our society Racism in our society has a long deeply rooted history. It has been in every part of our society and appears not to be getting any better. In order to fully understand racism one must look at the root cause of racism and the effects it has on an individual
America, Land of Discrimination, Home of Racism Thomas Jefferson owned slaves. Like a pigeon's droppings, this simple fact sullies the marble monument Americans reserve in their hearts for the father of Democracy. "How," we ask ourselves, basking in our own self-righteousness, "Could such a great man not see slavery as evil?" As we gleefully pass judgement on Jefferson, we often forget that in Jefferson's day, popular culture embraced slavery. True, plenty of enlightened men and women criticized
approaches to this problem. In this paper I will deal with some of the most influential and controversial narratives of race and finally present my personal thoughts on this issue. The first problem was a moral one. The slaves had been brought to America out of economical reasons. The South was - or at least believed to be - dependent on slavery. African-Americans were treated worse than animals. But how could the slaveholders answer to their conscience for that? They needed a justification
Racism Have you ever been picked on or made fun of because your nationality is different from someone else's or the color of your skin? If so, then the person who did it was probably a racist person. Racism still exists within all cultures. Some people won't admit they're a racist, but their actions and words prove otherwise. Most people won't directly discriminate other races, but that doesn't mean it doesn't happen everyday. Many will argue that their race is superior over another, or that the
Over the last 100 years 62 million people have died from incidents that were rooted from racism. That's obviously a lot less from when there were slaves down south, but those numbers aren't decreasing at any fast rate. People see racism on a day to day basis and don't even understand the effects it has on those victims. In America 95% people admitted that they were some sort of racist. It is not just a thing of the past; I realized that I have seen this issue in many different states plus Montana
Heterosexism, Racism, and Feminism Sexuality is a fundamental aspect of being human all through life and includes gender identities, sex, and sexual orientation, roles, eroticism, intimacy, pleasure, and reproduction (Chapman, 2008). Sexuality is expressed and experienced in thoughts, ideas, fantasies, desires, manners, values, behaviors, roles, relationships and practices. Though sexuality can encompass all of these aspects, not all of them are for
Anyone who visits any K through 12 schools, in most parts of the country today, will notice the friendly disposition with students of all races, class, cultural and religious upbringing. Most kids are ignorant to the differences between people. Racism has to be taught and it is being taught in the home. To understand the impact of slavery on America's society today, we first have to understand the after effects of slavery and suppression on any society. The motivation of slavery comes from a
other's country. Structural racism is system used in society that produces inequalities based on race in institutions and the social realm (Wikipedia 2013). Being the daughter of parents from different countries has led me to the conclusion that my family has been both advantaged and disadvantaged to structural racism. I as well have personally experienced both advantages and disadvantages of structural racism. First I'd like to explain my father's side of structural racism. My father being a white
Racism in Britain Britain emerged from the Second World War with a labour shortage. In 1944 a Royal Commission was established to assess the population of Great Britain. The commission returned its findings in 1949 recommending that extra labour was needed. The "European Volunteer Workers Scheme" was introduced. Its aim was to entice workers from Europe to come to Britain. Between 1947 and 1948 17,000 workers came to Britain under the scheme. However the Irish were
Globalization and its Effect on Racism 'Racism', in the Oxford English Dictionary, is defined as "Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior", and, "The belief that all members of each race possess characteristics, abilities, or qualities specific to that race, especially so as to distinguish it as inferior or superior to another race or races". The essence of both definitions seems to be that specific
Racism in Pocahontas The film Pocahontas, produced by Walt Disney films, portrays the tension between the Powhatan tribe and English settlers during the establishment of Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in the "New World." In examining this film using the article "Ten Quick Ways to Analyze Children's Books for Racism and Sexism," it quickly becomes apparent that although there are forms of racism as described in the article (what will be referred to as traditional media racism')
Discursive Essay on Racism Racism has existed for centuries, but during the last two hundred years hatred toward ethnic minorities or even majorities has fluctuated. Racism occurs all over the world, can happen to anyone and will always exist. There are three different forms of racism, open racism, violent racism and secret racism all express forms of hatred towards ethnic groups. These forms of racism, although different, all have the same main purpose, to promote
Racism Racism is a social problem that has occurred many years ago and it has passed through many phases. The oldest and most harmful of all is slavery. As we see from the "The problem of slavery and persecution' with the discovery of the New World, the institution of slavery grew to proportions greater than had been previously conceived. In 16th century Peru, to counter the inhuman system of slavery in the colonial economic systems finally introduced the great basic debate concerning the question
Racism is just one of the many problems that we have here in the United States today. Racism isn't as bad as it used to be but it's still here. In Othello, written by the one and only William Shakespeare, racism is the main theme and focus. England became involved in the slave trade during the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries (Slights 377). Racism started in the twentieth century after this was written but the way the Elizabethan era viewed black people was similar to how racism is today
duration of the Race and Urban Studies course, taught by Dr.MMM State University. My former naïve perception on how race functions within American society, immediately began to dissolve when first introduced to Joe Feagin's literature on systematic racism. My new understanding of race is articulated best by Feagin's words, "One can accurately describe the United States as a "total racist society" in which every major aspect of life is shaped to some degree by the core racist realities" (Feagin, 2004:16)
Racism has been a terrible problem in American society for hundreds of years. Racism issues are not limited to one specific race, but include all races. It is the responsibility of the people of this nation to address racism and learn to accept and embrace each other for our differences, and allow this great nation to become even more united for our sake and the sake of future generations. To eliminate racism it is imperative to know first, where racism started and how it has developed, why it continues
Racism in American History X "Get the fuck out of my house!" exclaims Derek as he pulls down his wife-beater to reveal a swastika tattoo, "See this? That means not welcome." American History X, directed by Tony Kaye, is a movie about the transformation of Derek Vinyard: a young neo-Nazi skinhead. Derek's father, Dennis Vinyard, was a middle-class fireman who disagreed with many of the ideological changes–such as affirmative "black" action–happening in America at the time. His father died while
Sullivan 30 March 2010 Racism in Disney During the last several decades, the media has become a strong agent in directing and controlling social beliefs and behaviors. Children, by nature, can be particularly susceptible to the influencing powers of the media, opening an avenue where media created especially for children can indoctrinate entire generations. Disney movies, like all other media "are powerful vehicles for certain notions about our culture," such as racism. (Giroux 32). Racist scenes
Racism in "The Bluest Eye" Several examples of racism are encompassed in The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison. Characters who are members of the black community are forced to accept their status as the "others", or "outsiders", which has been imposed on them by the white community. In turn, blacks assign this status to other individuals within the lighter-skinned black community. In this novel, characters begin to internalize the racism presented by these people, and feel inferior. The stereotype
was a light skinned women named Wilhelmina. Wilhelmina simply was not seen as a black women because of her social mobility and her light colored skin and eyes. That statement alone from the fans of Ugly Betty, brings up colorblind racism or media stereotype racism. If we want to become a colorblind society then the media needs to do a better job at being colorblind. People of different races and ethnicities help to bring different personalities to the media which can be a very positive thing
white person says anything against how someone of a different ethnicity is acting or even just states a differing opinion, than the politically correct and socially accepted opinion. In trying to eliminate racism against minorities the nation has inadvertently over sensitized the populace to racism against minorities to the point that any action by someone who is white can be used to make that person racist. Even the esteemed President Barrack Obama has used this ploy. Most recently during an interview
a concrete sign that someone is superior and of greater power than the other and it is also reflected in the music industry. In the year 2002, a song was released entitled White America, recorded by Eminem. From the title itself, it could be inferred that there is the existence of white empowerment for the term America was associated with the term White. Americans are generally labeled as black people for their physical appearance. Black people are considered as slaves since western societies most

In my opinion, I feel this is true; although there is much confusion that has existed, and continues to exist about the concept of race, as it has the actual knowledge about race, and what others really know. Science plays a major role in what racism is today. Born in 1707, "Carolus Linnaeus is famous for his ideas on classification, which have influenced generations of biologists during and after his own lifetime, even those opposed to the philosophical and theological roots of his work,"( Biography
Creative Writing: Destroying Racism As the snow covered the house that my grandma occupies, I looked out the window to the neighbor's front door, their mailbox, and the circular driveway they had. It was just another home, where kids could build a snowman or throw snowballs on the front lawn. But there where no children or snowmen here. And beneath the snow, the word "N-I-G-G-E-R" was written in the grass. A family- a home- where they had bothered no one. One night someone decided to take weed
While browsing through articles on the internet, I came across many related to the topic of racism. I am beginning to feel as if I am surrounded by stories of racism. From the KKK's aggressive campaign against immigrants, to the police violence against black people in cites throughout our nation, racism and discrimination continue to be problems. One story stood out to me and continues to make me uncomfortable. Malachi Wilson, a five year-old boy, could not attend his first day of kindergarten in
way is the amounts of news coverage different stories receive. These are just two ways misrepresentation in the media occurs and there are several others. A brief history of misrepresentation by the media Misrepresentation of different races in America by the media is not a new phenomenon. There was a time when almost all the actors appearing in American movies and television shows were white. In the 1950s and 1960s, the civil rights movement was taking place and civil rights leaders such as Rosa
itself as the country that accepts anyone whether they are black, brown, yellow, one legged, or gay; however, the American people proved that theory wrong with all of the racism and discrimination in the US. Racism still exists in the US and needs to be put to an end. First, let's review our main terms that ties up the argument. Racism is a system of advantage based on race. This system of Advantage of race promote terms such as "The Dominate Group/Race" and "White privileges" by allows the creation
Racism is defined by dictionary.com as '1. A belief or doctrine that inherent differences between the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others. 2. a policy, system of government, etc., based on or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination. 3. hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.'

American History X is clearly a film dealing with racism. The interesting thing about this film is the way in which the subject is treated. First of all, it is obvious that, though racism is always a difficult subject to deal with, American History X presents it without any reservations or dumming down. Second, the film's figurehead for racism, Derek Vinyard (Edward Norton), is not an unintelligent redneck racist as films often portray them, but is in fact well-spoken, charismatic and intelligent
Fifty years after the "Civil Rights Act of 1964" ( National Archives and..) one would think that discrimination and racism is a thing of the past right? However that is not true at all, although some progress has been made toward racial equality, America remains a very racist country. All across the states racism varies in degree just like it did in Maycomb, and a lot of it depends on the person. There are very many racially segregated cities in the United States in which whites are considered to
Racism in America Alton Dawson Liberty University Abstract The purpose of this research is to show the effects of racism in America. Racism is defined as one group assumes superiority over other groups that develop attitudes of arrogance and ignorance. Despite many laws and legislation attempts to eliminate the evils of racism, the problem focuses on the cultural differences of race, color and biological supremacy. Racism comes in the form of ethnic cleansing, hate groups, discrimination
The theme of racism is clearly apparent in two short stories "Berry" and "Blackout" and will be discussed and compared. Blackout is the story of an American woman who was waiting at a bus stop when a black man approaches her and asks for a light. She does not have a match so she gives him a light from her cigarette, but upon returning it she flicks it away. The man is clearly offended and later a conversation ensues about race and gender. The short story "Berry" is about a black man hired
Racism: discrimination which exemplifies stereotypical differences between the ethnic groups to which people belong. While Disney animated films are the ideal family movies, it is undisclosed to many that such racism is being portrayed. Disney's movie Aladdin (1992), "was a high-profile release, the winner of two Academy Awards, and one of the most successful Disney films ever produced" (Giroux, 104); however, what is often disregarded is the obvious depiction of careless racism towards Arabs seen

Big Bad Wolf is a London based band featuring washy guitars, ambient vocals, brassy hooks and deep grooves. This distinctive sound arises largely from the band's consistently egalitarian
process of group composition, where all 4 members are present from conception to completion of each song. Starting each writing session by recording an open-ended group improvisation, they then listen back, pick out the best ideas and then develop them into intricate and concise pieces of music. Big Bad Wolf have developed a unique way to bridge the gap between improvised music and contemporary pop/rock styles. All four band members have a strong grounding in jazz from their studies on the prestigious
jazz courses at the Royal Academy of Music and at Leeds College of Music. From this background, the band strives to constantly push the boundaries and blur the edges of the genre through a wealth of influences, from Bjork to Radiohead to Bill Frisell, brought to the table by each member to the group.
From the band's first experimentations in late 2014 there has always been a primary focus on the instrumental blend within the slightly unconventional line up (trombone, guitar, bass VI and drums) and how to work that into forging an individual, contemporary sound whilst still honouring the improvisational element of the jazz tradition.
July 2017 saw Big Bad Wolf release and tour their debut album, Pond Life, to rave reviews across UK and European media. This was made possible through generous funding from Help Musicians UK (Development Grant - Peter Whittingham Award) and The Arts Council (Grants For The Arts).
"One of the best albums I've heard this year" Mike Flynn (Jazzwise) on Europe Jazz Media
"The title track affirms how inventively the quartet juggle tone colour, constantly renewing sub-themes, and subtly shifting grooves" - John Fordham, The Guardian
"At its best this quartet's debut displays a very British quirkiness" - Clive Davis, The Sunday Times
"Wherever you turn, be it the joyous bounce of 'Canary' or the lyrical melancholy of 'Quiet Coach', there's treasure to discover" - Andy Robson, Jazzwise
"There's no question this group has an immaculate chemistry, leading to the tight and singular success that is Pond Life. This debut outing from Britain comes highly recommended for all who seek modern innovation and recombination in jazz today." - Friedrich Kunzmann, All About Jazz
"A feel-good, windows-down cruiser" - Adrian Pallant, Critic (AP Reviews)
"Brass-tinged pop dipped in melancholy and laced with a very slight
mathrock tincture" – The Progressive Aspect
"Sun drenched blissed out optimism" – Marlbank
"I really like the kind of combination of lazy trombone and darting guitar riffs" -
Jez Nelson, BBC Radio 3 (Jazz On 3)
"Pond Life is a day dreamer's delight. Its care-free atmosphere and melodic beauty makes it easy to become enveloped by its warm spell. It provides a perfect backdrop for a mind to dream of the future, or it offers a perfect spark to light up and reawaken long-lost images of the past and last goodbyes" – Dutch Progressive Rock Page (DPRP.net)
"Pond Life successfully synthesises several strands of music to deliver a distinctive group sound. These are young musicians who are combining their jazz education and sensibilities with the music of their own time to create music that is fresh and personal" - The Jazz Mann

Archipelago are a reeds/bass/drums trio from Newcastle upon Tyne. Their music fuses jazz, garage-rock and free improvisation into a fluid collage somewhere between the fixed and the floating; exploring song forms and emotional narratives with riffs, silence, noise, grooves and improvisation. By turns lyrical, sparse, frantic or crunchingly loud, Archipelago are fast growing a reputation for their honest, engaged musicianship and compelling live performances.
Formed late in 2015, after working together in various projects, Archipelago spent years gigging and writing music, before releasing a debut full-length LP 'Weightless' in 2017. They have shared bills with some of the most exciting artists in the UK and European jazz scenes, including Horse Orchestra (DK), Krokofant (Norway), Ripsaw Catfish, Binker & Moses and Arun Ghosh.

Steve Lewis creates songs by taking fragments from leftfield pop, African, folk and jazz, channelled through a sextet of instruments rarely heard in jazz (hurdy-gurdy, bagpipes, overtone vocals) and setting found texts from across science, literature and history: riffs and drones, curious and stirring.
"Deep Cabaret began in 2005 with an mjf commission: Top Ten Sex Tips. The project has kept developing and morphing ever since. The latest version curates the musics that fascinate me most: jazz, improv, African, folk and leftfield pop, and uses that music to set mash-ups of text from novels, journalism, scientific and spiritual and other texts that have things to say about being human.
The flat empty distances of Morecambe Bay have been a recent inspiration too. Internalising all that space, I can feel myself expand. Breathing becomes deeper, more relaxed. If each of those breaths becomes a held note, a drone emerges. Time seems held, then expands. As the drones layer, they make a Rothko-like aural shimmer. Similarly, a groove can captivate both emotional and physical experience to elasticate time. And this sense of a dissonant sea-desert has resonated with my love for desert blues and sub-Saharan music, and led to music improvised around African grooves and folk sounds, glistening riffs and muddy drones."

Recorded in April 2017 the album portrays a narrative which explores the group's musical journey. Beginning with performances which draw from the American Songbook tradition, it travels through to the modern aesthetic inspired by the surroundings of London's jazz scene. This compelling journey explores sounds from many perspectives simultaneously. Forms, harmonies and rhythms are superimposed and abstracted while retaining their essential function, whilst the improvisations within them express the excitement and beauty of these frameworks.

Exciting and energetic this band has been mentioned as one of the best live contemporary jazz bands in London at the moment.
Its strong and unique sound has captivated the interest of the Jazz community who called them "intriguing" or "innovative".

They jumped into international recognition in 2012 with the release of their critically acclaimed debut album 'Doors' and later with 'New World'.
Vitor Pereira was born in Porto/Portugal where he studied mainly classical music and classical guitar.
His interest in Jazz took him to participate in seminars and private lessons with the likes of Pat Metheny, Jonathan Kreisberg, Gilad Hekselman or Aaron Goldberg to name a few and ultimately led him to London in 2004 to study at the "Middlesex University".
Living in London since then he is an active name in the UK and Europe playing with names like: James Allsopp, Asaf Sirkis, Josh Arcoleo, Binker Goldings, Marc Demuth, etc…

Born in 1990 in the scenic county of Somerset, England, Hayden developed a passion for experimental music in his younger years which continued during his time at Middlesex University in London, where he studied jazz. He developed his style of double bass playing under guidance of, amongst others, musicians Stuart Hall, Chris Batchelor and Michael Janisch. After a brief time performing in bands of other musical styles, including music of the Balkans and Moroccan music, Hayden returned to performing and composing in jazz and improvised settings, usually in small band arrangements. With an avid interest in many acoustic and electronic musics, Hayden often hears music without the more rigid confines that style names would suggest, sighting musicians Craig Taborn, Drew Gress, Tim Berne, Ralph Alessi, Arnold Schoenberg, Boards of Canda, Autechre, Plaid amongst others as inspiration.
Due to the universities openness to experimentation and lack of a 'house style', Hayden was given freedom to explore his own creative processes and the relationships between improvisation and composition. Later, as part of his continuation of exploring the double bass and composition, Hayden took up studying over duration with two esteemed New York musicians, Drew Gress and Chris Lightcap, with whom he shares an affinity of musical language.
During studies with renown US bassist Michael Janisch, and on hearing Hayden's compositions, Hayden was offered to record for Michael's London based label Whirlwind Recordings. After a move to Berlin in 2015, Hayden formed a quartet and recorded his pieces with Elias Stemeseder (Jim Black Trio), Philipp Gropper (Hyperactive Kid) and Max Santner (Philipp Harnisch Quartet) with the release set for May 2017.
Hayden has performed at many UK venues, including The Vortex and Royal College of Music, and during his time in London was often featured in the house band at Ronnie Scotts Jazz Club, as well as having toured with bands throughout the UK and Europe. He has performed with, amongst others, Elias Stemeseder, Philipp Gropper, Max Santner, Bernhard Meyer, Alam Nathoo, Duncan Eagles, Dave Hamblett, Binker Golding, Sam leak, Shirley Tetteh, Andy Ball, Artie Zaitz.

'Thoughtful music; melodic, flowing and measured, with enough twists and turns to keep everyone engaged-' Mike Walker (Dave Holland, Tal Farlow, Anthony Braxton, Bill Frisell)
Wandering Monster perform intricately arranged instrumental rock music which draws upon jazz sensibilities and sound worlds. Made up of five crossover musicians highly active on the northern scene, the group reach beyond what may be expected from the tried and tested line-up of the tenor saxophone/guitar quintet. Retaining the harmonic sophistication and improvisational approach of jazz, these influences are juxtaposed with the rhythmic complexity of modern rock and metal. The result is a sound that is intense and raucous, yet also dynamic, sensitive and spontaneous. An engaging live act, the band are able to pull off involved written material alongside moments of exciting, natural improvisation. Despite hailing from the musical melting pot of Leeds, the monster has been unleashed across the north of England at a number of jazz festivals after winning the 2016/17 Jazz North Introduces Award. Notable performances include support slots for Seamus Blake and Mammal Hands.

(Matthew 11:29)
In any area of our lives there are certain principles that can make us successful and happy. Success is not just something we hope for or that is randomly given to us. We have to move toward a goal to become better if we do become better. Below are just a few things we can do in our Christian life to make us successful.
Learning more about our Lord will help us to live a successful Christian life. Jesus said: "Take My yoke on you and learn of Me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and you shall find rest to your souls" (Matthew 11:29). Our minds are very important to God. He wants you and I to develop them to be used for His service. "Study to show yourself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth" (2 Timothy 2:15). God wants you to be wise and to make good decisions. One of the first things in studying is to make sure you can use the knowledge that God gives you to make right decisions. That is called wisdom. You can get that wisdom from God as you study. "If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him" (James 1:5). Your knowledge and wisdom are given to you to help others. "But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy" (James 3:17). When you make decisions ask God to give you the mind of Christ in your decision. "Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus" (Philippians 2:5). If you think like the Lord, you will be successful.
"Don't Worry, Be Happy". Jesus gave us this advice: "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble" (Matthew 6:33-34). You can only live today. You cannot change what has happen in the past, and you cannot know what is going to happen tomorrow.
"Redeeming the Time". The Bible tells us: "See then that you conduct your life by considering all the consequences and possible outcomes (circumspectly), not as fools, but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil" (Ephesians 5:15-16). We have more modern "time saving" inventions like the computer, but we still seem to have less time to accomplish the things we want to do. Much of our time is wasted watching TV, DVDs, and playing computer games. We still have as much time as other people. We have 24 hours a day and seven days a week.
"Doing Your Best". No matter how big or small the task is, we should seek to do it with our best ability: "Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might" (Ecclesiastes 9:10). If we are going to be a successful Christian, we need to learn how to go the extra mile. This includes doing our best at our place of employment, in our relationships with others, and using our gifts in service to the Lord Jesus Christ.
"Rest". Jesus said: "Come to Me all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28). Jesus values both spiritual and physical rest. "And He said to them, Come aside into a deserted place and rest a little. For there were many coming and going, and they had no opportunity even to eat" (Mark 6:31). Even God rested: "And on the seventh day God ended His work which He had made. And He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had made. And God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He had rested from all His work which God created to make" (Genesis 2:2-3). We are made in God's image and you need times of rest. You cannot be successful if you are physically and mentally tired.
Today, I would encourage all of us to be successful Christians. We do not have to be discouraged and live in defeat. We have the power of the Holy Spirit to lift us above the world and all its problems. The Bible says: "Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 8:37-39).
The greatest step toward success is to first of all know that you are a Christian. Make sure you have more than just a "head knowledge" of the Lord Jesus Christ. "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!' (Matthew 7:21-23). Make sure you faith is real. "Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him" (John 14:23).

When I was growing up that phrase was used often and sometimes in conjunction with thither.
It meant you were not focused. Another way to say, ' running around like a chicken with it's head cut off'.
When I was growing up I often was not focused and just let life happen as it will. I thought of going to college, but had no real idea what to study for and didn't think to ask anyone.
I thought of being a teacher, but when someone said that was what all women wanted to be, I immediately decided I would not do that.
What I can remember wanting to be all along was a wife and mother. That did not take a lot of thought, no, really it didn't. It was what happened to girls. We became wives and mothers. And were good at it. I never thought any one was bad at it. Even if I knew people who ended marriages. I just thought they needed out of the marriage. I know, sounds silly now, but that was what I thought.
I met my special boy and we married. We moved far from our parents and siblings, a twelve hour drive away. We thought it was fine. Pretty sure parents were not so sure.
It worked for us.
It may have looked as though we were going hither and yon, changing jobs, moving into different houses, into different towns, but there was a plan. God's plan. It worked We have now settled within a few miles from my husband's boyhood home, and we love it.
Hither and yon may not be a bad way to travel through life.

Discussion in 'Hire a Freelancer' started by ssopec, Dec 12, 2015.
Curious if it is possible to hire someone to take down a webpage for me.
If you're trying to take down a competitor of yours or another person's website, i highly suggest you don't.
Well buddy, It isn't so easy as you think it might be. If it was, everyone would be taking out their competition by hiring somebody
I can help you, please add me on skype for further details.
If its one of your own .. Possible easy ..
If its some one else's ( Involved in some illegal activity or got you scammed ) lodge a complaint with the hosting provider. They will take it down.
If you want to take out a competitor... walk it off..
do you mean take someone down by hacking or flooding them? its possible for sure but dangerous game
Everything is possible for these guys with long hair eating donuts all days, but what you ask is not legal, we do black hate SEO not illegal hacking, so I call the police
this is what you mean be adorableseo ????
Yes it is 100% possible, but if it is competition game I would not do it, as you only spent money for nothing, they can get it back easily any time,
if someone try to slander you or your family and you just want to remove false info, I can help you free.
Curiosity killed the ssopec

WARNING: Medically graphic post and probably one that risks an overshare or two. Proceed at your own risk.
I wish this post was talking about the term Lady Gaga uses when referring to her fans, but in this case, it's referring to the monstrous tumor the doctors found in my abdomen yesterday.
I awoke yesterday morning to severe cramps that I thought were menstrual in nature. I had an endometrial ablasion almost six years ago, so I don't have periods any more, but I do, from time to time, get cramps, breast swelling and migraines. So, over the last few weeks when I've had increased cramping, I didn't think anything of it. I figured it was just PMS-related, took a couple of Tylenol and went on with my day. Yesterday, however, was quite different from the cramps I'm used to having.
I thought perhaps it was bowel related and once I went to the bathroom I'd be fine. I did, but I wasn't fine. If anything, the pain had gotten worse. Now, I'll be the first to admit I'm a pain baby, but rarely do I cry from pain. The cramps I experienced yesterday morning had me doubled-over sobbing.
I called my friend Wendy, who's also a nurse, and she suggested that if this wasn't normal cramping that I needed to go to the emergency room. So after a quick call to my bestie, she came and picked me up. That forty minute drive to the emergency room was almost too much. The cramps got worse and by the time we pulled up in front of the ER, I had all I could do to walk into the hospital.
My hubby joined Ann Marie and me a few minutes after I got settled into a room and I spent the next several hours being poked, prodded and scanned. My fear was that it was a blood clot due to all the sitting I'd been doing on the plane and in the airports last week, but the doctor quickly dismissed that fear. He first thought I had kidney stones and sent me down for a CT scan to find out for sure. This initial diagnosis scared me immensely. The pain involved with passing a kidney stone aside, I have plans for these kidneys and nowhere in the scheme of those plans was there room for stones. I had a small meltdown and was proverbially bitchslapped from my bestie for worrying about her kidneys instead of myself. I digress. Fortunately, the results from the CT scan came back and my fears were put to rest for the time being.
Then the doctor mentioned something called a teratoma that showed up on my right ovary and coming from a family who has been stricken with numerous types of cancer, I recognized the term -toma immediately. The nurse reassured me that it didn't necessarily mean cancer, that it was more like a cyst. Having known numerous people with ovarian cysts, I wasn't over worried; cysts are pretty common, after all. The doctor then told me that according to the scan, the cyst was 7cm x 7cm. Metric conversions aren't my forté, but I knew that was about 3 inches. In that area of the body, that's a good sized cyst. The doctor told me that he'd consulted with a gynecologist who was on his way over to look at my scan and discuss the findings.
When the gyno got there, he confirmed the doctor's diagnosis that it was a ovarian teratoma. He said it was a medium sized cyst that would need to come out, but that it wasn't emergent and unless I wanted to do the procedure today, it could wait a week or two. I expressed my concern about it being cancer, but the doctor reassured me that the chances of it being cancer were less than five percent. This eased my worries a little, but by this point, I was mad at whatever had caused me this pain and I just wanted it out. The gyno understood and explained the procedure would be done laparoscopically and that depending on how involved it was with my right ovary, it too may need to be removed. Given that I had my tubes tied almost fifteen years ago, I didn't care if my lady parts stayed or went. I signed paperwork, the doctor got on the phone with surgery and within an hour, I was being prepped.
By 7 p.m. I was in recovery and the nurses were reminding me to breathe deeply (always a problem for me). Typically, this surgery is done out-patient but because I was having a good deal of pain and one of the incision sites was having some trouble with seepage, they decided to admit me overnight. I spent the night on a Fentanyl pump and the doctor came in to talk to me this morning.
I had a lot of questions for him because he was gone by the time I came out from under the anesthesia and Hubs isn't the detail-oriented person I am, he didn't ask the questions I would have. I wanted to know if they had to take my ovary, first of all (they did). As an information whore, it was also important to me to know exactly what this thing was called (dermoid teratoma - I'll let you Google that little bit of nastiness on your own). I also wanted to know if there was any way this could've been an ectopic pregnancy gone horribly awry (it wasn't). I wanted to know if there was a chance of it coming back on the other side (there is). I wanted to make sure my tubes were still "tied" (they are). I wanted to know what my recovery period is (two weeks). Most of all, I wanted to know if it is cancerous (doc says no, the biopsy should confirm this). Long story short, this cyst is the most disgusting thing you could possibly imagine but it has been removed.
(The white and dark colored tissue you see here in the photos
is the cyst that wrapped around my right ovary.)
The doctor said that it was a bit larger than they first thought, explaining that the ovaries are typically the size of an almond and my cyst was the size of an orange and filled with fluid, hair and other organ-type tissues. I was totally grossed out, but he reassured me that this is normal because apparently ovarian tissues are complex in that they draw cells from all parts of the body - hair follicles, sweat glands, bones, teeth, organs like liver and kidneys, etc.This cyst, because it grew from the ovarian cells, also includes many of these cells. Hubs called it an alien and honestly? that's what it feels like this is: some sort of hairy little alien. It's been sent off to pathology and I should know shortly for certain that it's not a malignant tumor. Granted, the doctor has already given his expert opinion and that it's not cancer. But I'm someone who needs proof, so I will wait patiently (ha!) for the results to set my mind at ease.
Until then, I am forced to take it easy and recognize how fortunate I am in all this. If this had happened last week, my family would be frantic here at home while I was recovering at a friend's place in Harlem. My bestie, thankfully, is unemployed right now and was able to drop everything and not only take me to the hospital, but was able to stay with me all day to put my worried mind at ease. Hubs, too, was not only able to take off work and come to the hospital, his bosses had FMLA paperwork drawn up so he can take off the rest of the week to spend with me so I'm not alone. My friend RG came up and tagged in for Ann Marie and Hubs so they could get something to eat (since they hadn't eaten all day) and stayed with me. As it often does, our conversation helped me make sense of the day and the perspective I needed desperately. Even my ex-husband and his mother were there for me. They picked up Midget so she wasn't here alone and scared after school last night. They drove her to school this morning, too, so she wouldn't miss her presentation for National History Day.
Tonight, Midget and I had the "What if it's cancer?" talk and I think we both feel infinitely better. Since Hubs can be a bit of a tosser and a turner, I decided to sleep on the couch tonight. It's also easier for me to get up and down out here, so this is where I'll sleep. Midget, who is afraid I may need her in the middle of the night, is also camped out here with me. She's asleep on the bean bag and I'm on the sofa.
Even in this narcotic haze, I can appreciate God in all this. His timing is impeccable and He has surrounded me with love. I am so blessed.
**UPDATE** The pathology reports indicate the tumor is benign. It is not cancerous.

Wouldn't ya know it. A snow day.
They cancelled school (including preschool, which means the kidlets are bouncing all over the house today).
They closed the college where I work (not that I was going in today anyways since I was supposed to go to court for munchkin today).
They cancelled court.
So I'm sitting here at home....once again, not getting anything done. Everyone seems to be in an ornery mood today, myself included. And it's COLD.
I'd send them outside to make a mess and get into everything if it wasn't so stinkin cold out there and the fact that they don't have any kind of snow gear....no boots, no snowsuits, not even heavy enough jackets or gloves.
Oh well.
*HEAVY sigh*
I miss vacation....er....I mean work. LOL. Pathetic.

I don't really think the world is over. But what they're saying is certainly true. At 29 I was all, "Hurray! I'm awesome! I'm gonna meet the man of my dreams and we're gonna get married on a cloud, be bajillionaires and rule the world and ride unicorns with our fucking gorgeous children."
I love my career...and have a sardonic and overly self-deprecating sense of humor.
