So what music/bands are you guys into?
Inspired by my latest LJ post. Who knew there were Morrissey fans amoungst us.
Primarily I'm a rock girl at heart. I kinda grew up on it, my Mum loves Queen. I say rock loosely, as I like most of the subgenres (indie, alternative, etc), though not so much Emo..core. Or whatever it's called.
So yeah. <3 The Smiths and Morrissey.
Punk Pop makes me nostalgic, (old) Sum 41, Green Day, Blink.
Put Absolution on by Muse and give me some booze at any party and I'm happy.
Play something loud, obscure and thrashing and I'm away. November coming fire. Yep. Live is always better.
I like singing along to The Bravery, Franz Ferdinand and Bloc Party when I'm playing Singstar rocks.

I tend to be all over the place, I am not a fan of a single genre but rather certain bands or sounds. At the moment I am listening to Foxxi MisQ, Japans Destiny Child! XD The one genre I do adore though is hair metal! Hehehe, anything from Whitesnake to Bon Jovi, KISS, or similar. I love any soft rock or cheesy rock, none of these young chaps in tight jeans! I need mullets, and solos and denim vests with bandanas! But yes, 80's pop also rocks! Actually, anything cheesy and happy! I love happy music! |

I'd say I don't stick within genres, but it'd be a lie. I try to listen to other stuff but.. ~~ ;_; I like Johnny Cash. That's country! But mostly just because of his rendition of Hurt. >_> Oh God. Bon Jovi? My friend Sebastian loves Bon Jovi. He tries to convince me they're not a hair band anymore. I'm like, whatever. xD But I do like Queen so I'm no better. |

Bon Jovi is cheesy awesome. I don't care what people say, new Bon Jovi doesn't exist! Long live mullets and cowboy boots! \,,/ (^-^) \,,/ I've only recently gotten into new stuff, but I am still pretty horrible for getting into things. It's only because of a band called AAA that I got into Japanese music! |

Also my friend says to say you're silly because Bon Jovi wears tight jeans all the time. :] Also: I don't listen to much new nowadays. I'm getting old, I think! It takes a lot to make me listen to something new. |

SherlockHulmes Joined: 20 May 2007 Posts: 233 | There is a difference with Bon Jovis tight jeans, he wears tight blue denim jeans with shredding and stuff. Emoes and similar wear black tight jeans. Also, Cowboy boots with tight jeans = win, anything else = lose.
I work as a Forum Moderator for an online game, so generally I am online 24-7. They stopped us using LJ because we all used it so much, so instead I just sit on the forums and watching my gmail XD It's pretty dead atm, so not much to do. Gooo night shift! |

Exelia Joined: 21 Aug 2007 Posts: 131 | I go through musical phases (generally involving the 80s or 90s, best decades musically ever..) but I guess I could say my all-time favourites are: the Goo Goo Dolls, Fountains of Wayne, Cyndi Lauper, Nik Kershaw and Bowling for Soup. All for different reasons.
Then there's all the other musicians and bands I worship, like New Order and Spandau Ballet and suchlike, but they fall into other catergories, they're not my favourites. I'll listen to anything at least once, though, so I'm always getting new favourites/tastes, and they generally change a few times every month depending on what I find/get addicted to. Also, Morrissey is win - I grew up listening to the Smiths, lol. Last edited by Exelia (11 Sep 2007 - 19:08) |

Bangus Joined: 26 Aug 2007 Posts: 83 | My love of music is fairly diverse. To be honest I reckon that anything with a decent amount of bass is love. I am also a fan of cheesy oldies and classic 80/90's songs e.g the final countdown by europe, living on a prayer by bon jovi and the one and only by chesney hawkes (i know him yay) which is why I LOVED the AMV disco so much at amecon.
As for modern stuff Im a big fan of linkin park, disturbed,cascada, 3 doors down, fall out boy and the killers etc so its diverse. As for J rock/pop I have a few I like including AI Otsuka, Gackt, High and mighty colors and Hyde Its hard to get hold of stuff which is why this only seems like the main bands most think of. __________________ It is the destiny of great men for their dreams to go unfulfilled.

Taffeta_Rose Joined: 19 Aug 2007 Posts: 275 | My wonderful other half has just got me High and Mighty Colour's latest two albums. They did the 2nd (I think) opening for Bleach and Pride which was used in Gundam Seed. The lead singer has such an amazing voice.
I generally likes the metal (never have too much metal), and Offspring, Greenday, Muse. I really like System of A Down. I listen to a lot of soundtracks from anime (the background music to Hack//Sign is awsome, even if the anime was meh). Also realy like The Mouldy Peaches, a pair of unsigned stoners, with one album recorded probably in someone's basement. There's a track on there that's probably one of my favourite songs, but I can't listen to it much because it makes me cry. |

Orihime Joined: 20 Aug 2007 Posts: 106 | God, I love The Smiths. I was at a bar in Manchester this WE and they started playing 'Big Mouth'! I really wanted to get up and dance but my friends wouldn't move, booo...
Haha, the Mouldy Peaches, haven't heard that name mentioned in years! Other than that I'm definitely an indie-rock. girl at heart, been going to gigs since I was a teenager. My favourite bands are pretty obscure ~ Urusei Yatsura, Bis, Dolly, Angelica, Jeff Buckley and Guitar Vader to name a few. I like some popular bands like Feeder, Placebo or the Foos too. I also love female singers with a good voice e.g. Bjork, Hikki, Tori Amos... __________________ PR officer for the Grand International Cosplay Ball http://www.grandcosplayball.com |

CrystalNeko Joined: 12 Oct 2007 Posts: 1094 | I love most kinds of music... My main interest right now though is Jpop/Jrock... My favourite artist/bands would probably be Kelly Clarkson, Avril Lavigne [older albums], Linkin Park, Lost Prophets, Ayumi Hamasaki, L'arc~en~ciel, Aya Hirano, Orange Range, and HIGH and MIGHTY COLOR.
I don't particulary like RnB, Hip Hop, Rap or any of them =/... but otherwise I like most ^^... Even classical music which is odd for someone my age XD... Though I've grown up playing the piano and violin and my parents listen to classical so I kinda grew up with it XD Also I'm a major fan of 90s pop XDDD... Especially S Club! XDDD Steps rocked too XD! I also like metal... though not TOO heavy like Slipknot... I like Trivium though =D... Slipknot I find is pretty simular to rap... No melody! Only instead of speaking with rhythm they scream/shout with rhythm... Which is why I don't like really heavy metal xP At the moment I'm listening to Encounter on the FFVII: Crisis Core OST ^^ Lol I've blabbed on for way too long now! I could go on though xP |

My I-Pod ranges from Cradle of Filth to songs from Disney, from High School Musical musical to Nightwish ^_^ I've got quite varied tastes. Right now I'm loving Nightwish's new album. There's also another band I'm quite fond of, that's Project 37. They're sounding pretty basic at the moment, but their last recording was back in April and they have improved vastly since then. Project 37's Myspace In case anyone can't tell...I'm the vocalist and guitarist LOL Sorry for the crappy recordings, but we're saving the higher quality stuff for the CD we'll be releasing this year ^_^' |

Well, it is in places, but not in others... If that makes sense... I like Death's Kiss of the ones with vocals. Particularly the backing (don't get me wrong, I just prefer listening to instrumentals and soundtracks etc). And I like the non-vocals tracks (again, sorry, I just prefer listening to instruments) My only critic is that they seem a bit repetitive in places. Music I listen to; Bowie, Queen. Soundtracks Instrumentals Classical Japanese musicians (since I don't know the language, the lyrics become part of the instruments and I tune them out) I don't really care really just as long as the musical talent is good.

Help For the Haitian People
At this point, no doubt most of you are aware of the catastrophe in Haiti:
- 7.0 magnitude earthquake on the Richter scale.
- Thousands dead–countless injured.
- People still buried in the rubble.
- All-out chaos, confusion and bewilderment.
Here's how you can help:
This is what your money will go to (stats courtesy of RagamuffinSoul.com):
- $35 helps provide a relief pack filled with enough food and water to sustain a family for one week.
- $70 gift helps care for their needs for two weeks.
- $105 helps provide relief packs filled with enough food and water to sustain two families for two weeks.
- $210 gift helps care for two families' needs.
- $525 provides relief packs filled with enough food and water to sustain 10 families for two weeks.
- $1,050 gift cares for 10 families' needs.
- $1,500 helps rebuild a home.
- $2,100 supplies 20 families with the basics for three weeks.
There's a lot of work to be done. But thankfully, most everyone reading this has a lot of resources to do work with. (If you have money in your wallet or purse, you are amongst the wealthiest people in the world.)
Maybe this could be your chance to step out of the web culture and do something in the real world. What do you think?
UPDATE: Here are some powerful images from the rubble of Haiti from Boston.com.

May 2006 — June 2006
Graduate and undergraduate students in my Spring 2006 course Historic Preservation and Urban Conservation conducted a measured drawings project on the Delta Kappa Epsilon Shant, a ceremonial fraternity meeting house located in Ann Arbor, Michigan, near the University of Michigan campus.
The DKE Shant was designed in 1876 by pioneering Chicago School architect William LeBaron Jenney during his brief tenure as an architecture faculty member in the U-M School of Engineering and construction was completed in 1878. While Jenney was renowned for his steel frame designs, this is a brick masonry structure in an eclectic Victorian Gothic style. It includes such features as a pointed-arch front door and windows, as well as a detailed cornice with features that make reference to the Presbyterian church across the street.
Delta Kappa Epsilon was one of the leading fraternities at Michigan and supported both a residence and this meeting house, which was the site of ceremonies and excluded women from the premises until the 1970s. Former President Gerald Ford is among the notable alumni of this chapter of DKE who participated in ceremonies within the meeting house.
July 2006 — December 2006
In my masters thesis I also employed CAD documentation with the help of a research assistant, this time on the block level, to illustrate change in the built environment over the 20th century. With recent developments in architectural documentation, such as Revit at the professional level and Google Sketchup at the entry level, historians will be able to participate in the visual culture of their communities.

If you were to sit down and design a perfect independent bookstore from scratch, you'd probably come up with something like Three Lives & Company. Tucked into a quiet corner of the West Village, this cozy little shop comes with creaking floorboards, a knowledgeable, opinionated staff, and groaning shelves holding a well-curated selection of books ranging from current bestsellers to canonical tomes to obscure reprints. When last we were there, a woman turned to a staffer after paying for her purchase and said, "Thank you so much for still being here."

Al-Sham Sweets and Pastries
A humble temple to walnuts and pistachios in Astoria, Al-Sham Sweets and Pastries crams a dizzying array of baklava into its small display case. They serve the Syrian variety ("Sham" is the old name for Syria and still the local appellation for Damascus). Unlike Turkish baklava, the Syrian versions derive most of their sweetness from the nuts rather than syrup. The diverse styles available demonstrate the importance of texture to properly made baklava and invite grazing to identify your favorite. We've only made it through about a fifth of the options, so we need to make a few more research trips.

Willem de Kooning at MoMA
"The most piercing, inexhaustible, and relentlessly intense full-on career survey I have ever seen in this country," said one critic. "Exhaustively comprehensive, exhaustingly large, and predictably awe-inspiring," gushed another. "The most ambitious show New York has seen in a long time --- a lavish, knotty, and definitive tribute," opined a third. Critical consensus is rare in the fractious New York art world, but the de Kooning retrospective at MoMA is virtually impossible to fault. A massive exhibit of more than 200 works, it blasts away any doubt about de Kooning's centrality to modern art, salvages his surprisingly productive later years from obscurity, and demonstrates better than any show we've seen how an artist can continue to wrestle the same devil forever.

Miracle on 34th Street at Film Forum
Unlike its contemporary Christmas yarn, Frank Capra's masterful It's a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street is not a sophisticated or even a particularly well-executed movie: the acting is uneven, the editing hopeless, and the plot full of holes you could drive a sleigh through. But seeing it at Film Forum, where it opened for a brief run yesterday, we couldn't deny that it's a lot of fun, with a great central conceit and some terrific lines ("Maybe he's only a little crazy, like painters or composers or some of those men in Washington"). It also disabuses you of the notion that the commercialization of Christmas --- and complaining about the same --- is a recent phenomenon. But most importantly, it inspires a lot of holiday cheer, making the lights outside twinkle just a little bit brighter.

Yes, we're on the Legend bandwagon. Back in the summer, the Times blew the lid off one of the better-kept foodie secrets in town, that this seemingly unambitious, unremarkable restaurant in Chelsea, with a menu full of dull Chinese-American dishes, has a wild Sichuan streak. Though people not in the know pass by and shrug, Chinese tourists and devoted foodies have been crowding into the bi-level space to try Ding Gen Wang's ambitious and often inventive Sichuan cooking. Classic dishes like spicy cellophane noodles with pork (a.k.a., ants on a log), Chen-du sweet potato noodles, ma po tofu, and the like do not disappoint, but the reason we'd go back in a hurry is the "new style Sichuan" menu, in particular its Chongqing diced chicken with chili peppercorns. The chicken comes crispy and salty, almost like meaty popcorn, and absolutely covered in deeply flavored chilis. Some bites ignite your mouth, certainly, but on the whole it displays a controlled heat that complements rather than crushes the dish.

Dyker Heights Christmas Lights

Holiday Donuts from the Doughnut Plant
Behold, the Doughnut Plant's holiday donuts: marzipan, star-shaped and tasting, perhaps curiously, of cherries; spiced pear, green-striped and filled with a sugary, cider-esque pear mash; and gingerbread, cakey and moist. Their all-around hyper-sweetness inspired much holiday cheer, or at least heart racing, as well as the following, sung to the tune of "Deck the Halls":
'Tis the season to get fatter
Yum ya-yum yum, ya-yum yum yum
Fill my belly with bags of donuts
Yum ya-yum yum, ya-yum yum yum

Three floors above bustling 32nd Street, marked only by a small sign amidst a riot of competing ads, Arirang serves only those people determined to find it. Its customers' persistence becomes understandable once you take your first slurp of the handmade noodles that are the house speciality. Lubricious and luxurious, they soak up the hearty broth they're served in and warm you from the inside out. They come in two main varieties --- long or flaked --- and fortunately, you can get both in the same bowl.

A Christmas Carol at the Abrons Arts Center
The subtitle of this show is DICKENS: THE UNPARALLELED NECROMANCER (caps theirs), which explains much about Reid Farrington's point of view. He has taken the many, many adaptations of A Christmas Carol, edited them down to soundbites, and then restaged the performance, with live actors. It doesn't always work, but what it does do is honor the source material, Dickens' novella, a book that's easy to dismiss because of it sentimental familiarity, but that, once you sit down to read it as an adult, you realize is just about perfect.

Reply to: | Desiree, Mahalia, Isidore, Xandinho by Effie |
Isidore's my dad's name. I love it for that reason, but I would love it even if that weren't the case. It's just a classy, interesting name which isn't too uncommon. I can't help but think the nickname 'Sid' is cute, somewhat silly and somewhat spunky and would suit the right person.
Xandinho is really interesting, but it's not my style and it makes me think of Xanadu, because my brain is lame.I dislike both girls' names. Mahalia doesn't appeal and I don't like the meaning. Desiree seems tacky and makes me think of potatoes. Potatoes.
Weirdly, I like Mahlah and Mahalath better than Mahalia. They're odd, but they're not over-frilly and trying to be pretty and girly, which the is the vibe I get from Mahalia. I particularly like Mahalath's odd look. I mean, I'd never use it on a person, but it's tempting to use it on a character. Oooh, and Maala. Yes, in my view, all three of those are more interesting and cool than the related Mahalia... but that's just me.

Han-Gyul's happiness brings tears to my eyes.
He only wished not to be misunderstood! The poor guy, pure and serious as he is, that little wish was almost too much to hope for at this point. (To be fair she's a Sherlock Holmes and deduced it) The latest arc interestingly refuses to let the "designated" couples pair up. Hm, complications? |

I know it's quite a stretch, but I hope it gets an anime (everything might be Japanized, though) or at least a Korean live-action series.
Yang Mi-ri is my fav, followed by Seul-gi. Yo-han is my fave guy, then Han-gyul (badass IMO) and In-young (fight for your love, man!).

I am glad they are still translating this series. Two chapters came out today and I really like to see what happened between that fat guys sister and Min even though it's obvious. I also love how Miri now going to Yohan's place all by herself now even though Yohan set up such a good setting for the girls to peep. This series gotta be one of my favorite ecchi manhwa and I hope they keep on translating in this pace.

The fact that when he loses so much now he looks more and more famous Japanese film actor, Takuya Kimura. That made me lol because he sure looks like him. Especially his hair style. I also felt sorry for the girl he is in love with when he accidentally slipped her skirt. These two pairs are the only ones I am really cheering on and I hope they get to close with each more in the future.

"I am so happy with my invitations. The quality of the paper is great...weighty and perfectly textured. The design is so elegant. The only thing I would say is that they are smaller than I expected but I was reading that's that is a good thing as it saves on postage! Service was also prompt and a pleasant experience."
"Absolutely beautiful. It was really easy to customize the wedding invite. My designer did a great job of brining my ideas to life. I really wanted to be able to include our parents in the invite and the designer came up with a great solution and moved a few things around. The invite is exactly what we wanted. Thank you so much!"
"My color theme for my wedding it a variation of purples and this invitation was just perfect for it. The quality is also great! Delivery was amazingly fast! I am very satisfied with my finished product and would definitely recommend them to anyone."
"We LOVED these wedding invites from the second we saw them and got tons of positive feedback! I love the subtle color variations in the leaf designs (we used the green option - we were having an outdoor summer wedding) and think the font colors complimented it nicely. The only change we made was to put the phrase "reception to follow"and the "and" between our names into Willa Bold font rather than the script font. We were sent proofs promptly, and the designer listened to our suggestions. Overall, the printing quality was excellent, the invites arrived in a timely manner and just as advertised, and the paper was fantastic. What helped most was that we ordered sample invitations from WPD (8 for free) and they send you a super helpful paper stock sample guide. I would highly recommend doing this, because it shows you exactly what you're going to get! Overall, we were super happy with the invitations!"
"Beautiful design! We love everything about this invitation. It fits our theme of "Backwoods Boy and a Fairy Tale Princess" The best part of this process was the free designer who edited our customization and made it perfect and the great email communication. Two thumbs up!"

I have been on a Makeup & Skincare ban for a year or so now. I only allow myself to buy a new beauty item once I've finished another. (ie. I will only buy a new Mascara once I've finished my current Mascara) I'm trying to eliminate all the doubles I have and curb impulse spending.
I haven't really focused too much on actually using up my duplicates though so I think I'll take on a Project 10 pan of my own! Thanks for the inspiration.

Philadelphia - First City in Nation - to Pass a Law Requiring Informed Consent Before Dentists Use Mercury Amalgam
May 08, 2008, 01:00 ET from Consumers for Dental Choice
PHILADELPHIA, May 8 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Pennsylvania Coalition for Mercury-Free Dentistry and Consumers for Dental Choice will host a press conference to promote Blondell Reynolds Brown's "Informed Consent" mercury dental law, Tuesday, May 13, 12:30 p.m. Mayor's Reception Room 202, City Hall. There will be a CONSUMER PROTEST, 10:30 a.m., 255 South 17th Street. President of the Pennsylvania Dental Association falsely claims: "No dentist 'places mercury' in a patient's mouth." After a four-year battle, Philadelphia City Council passed Brown's bill mandating that dentists distribute a patient brochure disclosing the dangers of silver/amalgam fillings, that they are 50% mercury, that dental mercury exposure poses health and environmental risks, and non-mercury alternatives exist. Despite aggressive opposition by the PDA, ADA and Philadelphia Dental Society, the bill passed unanimously, 17-0 on December 13, 2007. A similar state bill has been introduced by Representative Daylin Leach. "Unless patients receive truthful information about the DISADVANTAGES of amalgam, educated decisions about dental care cannot be made, nor can patients protect themselves from mercury exposure," says, Freya Koss, Director of the Coalition. Koss, is hopeful that the Department of Health will write a scientifically factual brochure heeding the World Health Organization's conclusions that dental amalgam fillings contribute more mercury to a person's body than all other sources of mercury combined. Donald Robbins, DMD, a biologic Exton dentist and member of the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology encourages warnings for pregnant women, "Studies have repeatedly demonstrated that mercury in the tissues of the fetus or infant correlates significantly with the number of dental amalgam fillings in the mother." "All populations should be aware of the potential health hazards of amalgam. The brochure provided for in Bill No 040904 will give all patients pertinent information to make informed choices," stated Reynolds Brown. "The consumer protection law written by Blondell Reynolds Brown will help thousands of Philadelphia families to bring awareness that silver fillings are mainly mercury and pose a serious health risk. What pregnant woman or parent would want their unborn baby or child exposed to mercury?" warns Charlie Brown, National Counsel to Consumers for Dental Choice. For more information about the bill and the press conference, contact Freya Koss, (610) 649-2606, or Charlie Brown, (202) 544-6333, email@example.com.

NVIDIA announces GTA V for the PC... or does it?
Well, this is kind of interesting. At an investors meeting last week, the presenter (likely Jensen) name-dropped Grand Theft Auto V as games that people are looking forward to playing this season. Obviously, NVIDIA is not in any consoles, so this means that the game was for the PC.
The company has backtracked a bit though... "Please note, during our Thursdays earnings call, our investor relations team provided a list of important games that gamers are looking forward to on PC this fall, and included Grand Theft Auto V on that list. This statement was made with the intent of expressing enthusiasm for the games industry in general, and was not intended to represent specific knowledge possessed by NVIDIA. NVIDIA does not have information on any possible PC version release of Grand Theft Auto or its availability. We deeply regret the error." I'm willing to bet this is just saving-face, and that GTA V is in fact going to be here on the PC this holiday season. Or that might just be the fact that I REALLY want to see that happen talking...

Great Faith
In today's devotional, I want to look at the third level of faith. It is found in Matthew 8:5-10,
Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him, saying, "Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, dreadfully tormented." And Jesus said to him, "I will come and heal him." The centurion answered and said, "Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed. For I also am a man under authority, having soldiers under me. And I say to this one, 'Go,' and he goes; and to another, 'Come,' and he comes; and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it." When Jesus heard it, He marveled, and said to those who followed, "Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!"
We saw in previous devotionals that the first level of faith is no faith, the second is little faith, and now the third is great faith.
Great faith says, "Lord, Your word is enough." The centurion said, "Only speak a word." He understood the authority of Jesus' words. He said, "Jesus, all You have to do is say it. You don't even have to come into my house. I don't have to see anything. Your word is all the evidence I need."
That is what great faith says, "Lord, Your Word is all the evidence I need. Things don't have to look differently and I don't have to feel differently. Your Word is it. I don't need any other kind of confirmation. It doesn't matter what the circumstances say. Lord, Your Word settles the issue for me."
That is great faith, and that is what we should be pursuing.

Campus Conversations
Cupcakes for Children!
Blogger: Ava Martinez
Hello prospective students/whoever else has ventured onto the admissions blog!
In case you are new to reading about my experience at Oxy, I'll take this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Ava Martinez, and I am a sophomore Psychology and Art History and the Visual Arts double major from San Francisco, CA. This semester, I am taking Abnormal Psychology, Introduction to Asian Art, Health Psychology, 19th Century Art, and Book Arts: Letterpress. I am also involved in Delta Omicron Tau Sorority, Quidditch, Dance Production (Irish and Swing dancing), and am in the process of starting a new service club called Cupcakes for Children (I'll talk more about that later.). So far, this semester has been busy, but definitely a lot of fun! Also, because a lot of my friends now have cars, I've had the chance to take more off campus adventures to places including Santa Monica, Magic Mountain, and Target (Best place ever, let's be real.).
On the topic of Cupcakes for Children/some shameless self promotion: this summer, I spent some time in Bawjiase, Ghana, working as a childcare volunteer at an orphanage. In my short time there, I grew more attached to the 26 children who lived at the orphanage than I could have imagined was possible. Upon my return to the US, I decided I wanted to provide continued support for the organization and its children, so I partnered with Mama Hope, the nonprofit that supports the orphanage, to raise money to fund electricity for the children's center. Cupcakes for Children, the club I'm currently in the process of starting, will support this fundraiser through meeting to bake cupcakes as a club, and then holding bake sales, with the profits going to the electricity fundraiser. I plan on returning to Ghana over winter break, but in the meantime I am really excited to get Oxy's student body involved!
Well, that's all for now, but I hope you will enjoy reading about my different experiences at Oxy this year. Good luck with the college admissions process and the first semester of senior year!

Little Details of Fundraiser Planning
Taking one hour to plan your cookie dough campaign can save you three hours of work. It lowers your frustration level, keeps your team on track and makes achieving your campaign goals easier. Paying attention to the little details can make or break your cookie dough fundraising campaign. Plan accordingly.
Contact information is an essential detail you must plan for to operate a successful fundraising campaign. All other details of your campaign can be in place, but without visible contact information, you are losing the battle. You must give your potential buyers as many chances as possible to get ahold of you and your cause. Make it as visible as possible, both online and offline.
Contact information includes your campaign name, physical address, phone number, email address, fax number plus your campaign's website and/or marketing blog address. Be sure to place your contact information on all your Otis Spunkmeyer fundraising marketing literature including your press releases, flyers, volunteer sign-up forms, posters, signs and cookie dough catalogs.
For online communications, be sure to place the information at the end of all your web content, in a "contact us" section of your website, in your multi-streaming videos and throughout your social networking communications.
Revenue contains a number of little details you must understand when planning your cookie dough fundraiser. Figure out how much money you need to raise to meet your financial goals, known as your total projected revenue. If you need to purchase uniforms, for example, multiply the number of players by the purchase price.
Break this figure down by estimating how much you plan on receiving from different income sources other than individual donors. Sources can include community groups, local and global businesses, governmental grants and interest income. Total those sources and deduct from your total revenue. The amount remaining will be how much you need to raise from individual supporters. Put these details in your Budget Plan.
Now you must calculate how much each team member must raise. Use an online calculator, like that found on our Otis Spunkmeyer site, to calculate individual figures. Convey this information to each member to keep them motivated and informed.
You need to understand the little details involved in the expense area of your budget when planning your cookie dough fundraiser. Expenses spell out how and where you will spend campaign dollars. Plan on having fixed expenses that do not change such as rent, equipment leases and overhead. Estimate your variable expenses, items that change. These include electricity, printing, mailing, fuel, telephone and salaries. Be sure to take some money and set aside into a petty cash fund for unexpected expenses.
Your donor base is a crucial detail of your campaign. While planning your fundraising campaign, you need to concentrate on the details involved with your donor base. You must analyze your donor records and make adjustments as needed. What is their average purchase/donation? Have you grown your donor base over the years? Or, has it stayed the same? Has it decreased from prior years? Analyzing your donor base provides insight into changing strategies to improve overall success.
Consider your campaign dates when planning your fundraiser. A number of factors come into play. If planning an outdoor activity, schedule it for warmer climates. Consider the holidays and the fact other nonprofits will be fundraising at this time. Remember your competition so you do not overload your donors and/or community.

The distillery is to be found in the foothills of the Bains Kloof Pass on the banks of the Berg River in Wellington and their current expressions include a 5yo blend and the Bourbon cask finish. Recently, James Sedgwick distilled South Africa's first single grain whisky too, so hopefully we'll be seeing that heading to our shores soon.
I recently popped into Milroy's in Soho and the Three Ships 10yo single malt caught my eye, so I grabbed a bottle. Apparently this bottling is a limited edition, so probably worth seeing if your local retailer can locate it for you.
Three Ships - 10yo single malt whisky - 43% - 75cl
Nose: A very alluring soft and aged peat gently wafts in first, almost reminiscent of a lightly peated Ardbeg. Behind that, is a stewed rhubarb note, a hint of sweet candifloss and a wave of dry oakiness.
Palate: The initial sip is sweet and fragrant, rather like a sweetened Earl Grey tea, creamy cereal, soft red summer fruits and chocolate covered hazelnuts. The peat is again gentle, this time similar to my old favourite - Talisker 18yo, which is high praise indeed. It doesn't have as much depth as this Syke heavyweight, but it is a very passable and drinkable.
Finish: Sweetness lingers and the cereal notes coat the tongue along with the soft peat for a pleasingly lengthy finish.
Overall: What a little corker. Cost wise, this comes in at a fairly weighty £45, which for a 10yo is fairly expensive. But nonetheless a very easy drinking and approachable whisky from South Africa's finest. Think Spring Bok as opposed to Springbank!!

Newport Beach, CA 92660
I've worked as a fitness specialist for 24 years teaching at universities & community colleges; consulting; providing continuing education for fitness professionals & providing management for health clubs & community outreach programs. Much of my work has been focused on personal training & teaching.
As a personal trainer, I create evidence based programs which emphasize injury prevention, spinal stability & balance. In addition, I design programs to reduce the risk of back pain & for fall prevention. The populations I've worked with include individuals who need pre- & post-rehab for orthopedic conditions (ie arthritis, carpal tunnel, back/knee/shoulder problems, hip/knee replacements), older adults & people with Osteoporosis & Scoliosis.
My teaching experience includes being a Master Trainer to fitness professionals; certifying them for Resistaball®. I've been a lecturer & group exercise instructor in Kinesiology departments at universities & community colleges as well. The settings I've worked within include corporations, residential facilities, hospitals & senior centers. I've also written & published articles, done field research & given lectures to the public.
I earned my M.S. & B.S. degrees at CSUF in Kinesiology & have an AA degree from Stephens College. For my master's thesis, I did a study with a program I designed for back pain prevention using methods for spinal stabilization with stability balls. The program addressed risk factors for back pain based on ergonomic principles. My research was published in peer-reviewed professional journals for ACSM & NSCA; which are are among the most respected organizations in the industry. I presented my findings at two ACSM meetings; this also entailed acceptance through peer-review. My work has been included in references for professional journals and presentations.
On several occasions, I have been featured in Shape Magazine. The first time was in an article I wrote as a success story feature. Later, I was recruited as a mentor for a pilot program. I've been interviewed by Laura Brown on FREE FORUM, KNX FM in Los Angeles & for Jade Magazine. In addition, I also worked as an assistant for an aerobics video titled For Women Only.
I always strive to grow by seeking continuing education regularly. Since my career emphasis changes from time to time, I strive to update my certifications in a manner that is reflective of my current endeavors. For example, when I stopped teaching group exercise to in order to focus my energies on personal training, it was no longer necessary to maintain certifications pertaining to group exercise. Because of this variance, I've successfully passed a number of certifications throughout my career within a variety of disciplines. Currently, I am in the process of preparing to take another personal training certification (ACSM).

Rule #8: Ignore The Guy Next To You
This rule ties in closely with Rule #7 but isnt quite the same. Here it is: Dont be insecure. If youre lifting this puny little weight and the guy next to you is lifting 5 times that amount (or even 100 times) WHO CARES! Hes not you, youre not him. Dont start cheating so you can use more weight. If hes using bad form and cheating a lot then thats his mistake. It reminds me of a story I heard from bodybuilding author Mike Brown: I saw [a fellow] years ago doing an exercise and bragging that he was using the same weight as Reg Park. Reg Park at that time was almost as well known as Steve Reeves, having won the Mr. Universe a short time before. Mac MacFarland, the 1963 Mr. Hawaii winner, looked at this guy contemptuously and asked him, If a pudgy nobody like you is handling the same weight in the same exercise that Reg Park is, dont you think that maybe youre doing the exercise wrong?
Remember the tortoise and the hare. If you work hard enough, long enough, and never, never, ever quit, youll get there too well-built, safely and with proper form.
You have to swallow your ego. I had been training for almost 10 years when I decided to learn the Olympic-style Lifts (the Snatch and Clean and Jerk). I had to go from Squatting with 445 pounds to Snatching with 65. Do you know how foolish that made me feel (and look). Remember, A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Do whats right for your body, not your ego. And through it all remember the golden rule of drug-free weight training: HAVE PATIENCE!
Rule #9: Spend Your Money On Plenty Of Good Food NOT The Latest Supplement
This is one of the sadest things in the Iron Game today. Those supplements did not make Lee Priest huge. Go back and read Rules #1 and #3. The industry is big money. The athletes are paid to advertise those supplements. I remember cart loads of products from the 1980s (when the supplement industry really took off) up through to the present. I think Ive taken most of them myself. So have my friends and people Ive trained and trained with. I thought for awhile that the secret would finally get out about the bullshit supplement industry, but its only gotten incredibly worse. I know that the latest magazine says product so-and-so has been scientifically proven to increase muscle mass. Dont listen to it! I could turn up studies showing that anabolic steroids dont build muscle if I had to (actually, studies reaching that conclusion were fairly regularly published at one time) . A lot of those studies are funded by the same companies that sell the products. Thats right, theyre paying the researchers paychecks! That should tell you something. Even the most honest studies can be misquoted and re-interpreted to sound like theyve found the breakthrough key to massive muscles. Believe me, I myself could describe chicken breasts so that people would be clamouring to buy them for their potent muscle building effects.
And speaking of the ridiculous, I was flipping through a current muscle mag just this morning and came across some miraculous claims for high molecular weight glycogen replenishing waxy maize. In America and Europe we call that corn. Waxy maize is a Chinese variety of it and we all know how huge its made the Chinese. Anybody whos stupid enough to believe that a species of corn is going to pack on the muscle mass probably cant read anyway, so I dont know who those supplement swindlers thought theyd fool. In that same magazine they were touting the anabolic properties of Goat protein. Goat protein? Jesus. What will they come up with next? Milk from Ms. Olympias tit (if she still has one)? On the other hand, they make millions of dollars a year selling that crap more proof of P.T. Barnums a sucker born every minute theory.
He should be ready just in time for the Olympia.
Remember, I know how scientific research works. Ive seen papers published that were the result of complete fabrication. Ive seen grad students (who write the majority of the papers youll see published), under extreme pressure to graduate, completely invent their results. Ive seen professors with 30 years experience blatantly plagiarize (actually photocopy) the works of others so they could continue to get grant money. Just recently a major drug company got busted for funding research and deliberately keeping their involvement a secret from the publishers of the scientific journals the articles were being presented in. Trust me, everything thats in print no matter what the source is not necessarily trustworthy.
But as I said, I am a scientist. Not all science is bad. In fact, some research is simply invaluable to our body of weight training knowledge. Knowing how to separate the wheat from the chaff is a job best left for the true experts, not the guys in bodybuilding magazines or on websites who stand to make millions by selling some supplement. If you have the scientific background, I encourage you to review the published research yourself, or subscribe to Alan Aragons Research Review or get his book Girth Control: The Science of Fat Loss & Muscle Gain. You may be surprised that the only scientific proof you find regarding most popular bodybuilding supplements is proof that they have no effect on building muscle or reducing body fat. But even a minimum amount of research (and a small dose of common sense) will tell you that all of the major bodybuilding magazines and internet websites have supplement lines or make money directly selling other supplement brands. Pick up a modern bodybuilding magazine at least 70% of its content will be supplement ads (often disguised as articles to further mislead you) featuring bodybuilders who are practically 100% anabolic drug built and dependent. Do you think for a minute you can believe anything they say about supplements? If you do, youre incredibly naive and its time you grew up.
The sadest thing is when I hear a naive beginner talking about a top bodybuilder and the supplements he takes as if the supplements actually had anything to do with his muscle development something like, Do you think this guy could get so big without steroids or supplements? Let me tell you something. There isnt a supplement on Earth thats 1/1000th as strong as even the weakest of anabolic steroids. And Ill go even further there isnt a supplement on Earth thats stronger than even a glass of milk. Its seems that the latest rash of them arent even any stronger than corn literally. Sorry for bursting your bubble, but thats the truth. All those fancy packaged anabolic, extreme, bio-, -test, -abol whatevers are nothing but the height of pure, unadulterated bullshit designed, first and foremost, not to build muscle but to get your money. Any gains you do seem to get from them are placebo effect. When asked about fat burners, Rob Hope (hes one of the most muscular natural bodybuilders to ever live) said, Nothing works better that a strict diet and the right amount of cardio.
Several years ago I noticed the supplement industry starting to use the term stacking to describe the practice of taking several supplements at the same time. Stacking actually originated as the practice of combining anabolic steroids that worked by different mechanisms in order to produce a greater effect than taking either of them alone (the synergy effect that the fitness industry loves to harp on so much). Stacking useless supplements is akin to throwing good money after bad 99% of the supplements on the market do nothing, so 0 + 0 is still 0. The supplement industry latched onto the concept simply to get you to buy more than one of their supplements. I think for supper tonight Im going to stack a chicken breast with some rice and a glass of milk or, even better, Reg Parks favourite stack of steak, eggs and wine or maybe the real anabolic secret would be some goat meat and corn?
Perhaps a few words from Joe Weider himself would be in order here. When asked by Ken Leistner as to why the supplements he bought as a teenager didnt produce the results as advertised, Joe had this to say:
My job was to pull as many young boys off the street and into the gym as I could using the advertising that I did. By the time you realized it was bullshit, I already had you hooked into a healthier lifestyle of working out and eating better. Joe Weider [1]
and so another supplement customer was born. But Joe obviously did know where true gains in size and strength came from. Again, Im making myself a few enemies in the industry here because Im telling the truth about their sham. Good.
But dont get me wrong, after that fairly vicious attack on the bodybuilding supplement industry, Im actually not saying that all supplements are completely useless for example, high-potency multi-vitamin/mineral tablets are what Id classify as a good supplement. Your body needs vitamins and minerals to grow. If youre short on just one the whole muscle growth process can be halted. I recommend you take two a day one with breakfast and one with supper. Theres nothing wrong with a little extra vitamins C and E either. And if youre in really hard training some extra B-Vitamins can help. Nutritious supplements such as these can help give your body what it naturally needs. Ive found that old-fashioned desiccated liver is one of the most effective supplements there is if enough is taken (it rarely fails to get moderate strength gains going for awhile in myself or my clients). Creatine also gives a mild strength boost to most trainees at least while theyre still taking it. But these things arent miracle pills and elixirs, theyre convenient ways of getting more of the healthy things that should be in your food. I know a few other supplement secrets that apply to people with certain metabolic disorders, but if youre already healthy then practically every supplement is irrelevant compared to proper training, nutrition and rest.
Almost every supplement you see advertised in the muscle magazines and online is a waste of your money. They do nothing. On the other hand, dont ruin all your hard work and dedication in the gym because you didnt swallow a little vitamin/mineral tablet a few times a day but dont expect it to magically grow muscle either. The real function of supplements, in a bodybuilding sense, is to build health, as only a healthy body will grow muscle at the fastest possible rate. Incidently, this is how you should view ALL supplements: As nutritional back-up for an already sound diet and lifestyle. Think of them as a nutritional insurance policy nothing more.
What about prohormones? Well, since the FDA crackdown in 2004 there have been two types: Ones that dont work and are just another supplement industry rip-off of your money, and what I call legal loophole prohormones, which are essentially compounds that the FDA hasnt caught up with and yanked off the market yet (remember, anabolic steroids themselves were legal until the 1980s still are in some countries and until late 2004 so were the previous generation of prohormones). Of course, these second types are a fine line from being steroids themselves and carry the same risks and dangers as well. Not all prohormones actually work, however. The problem is that just because a molecule is similar to another molecule doesnt mean that it will behave the same way in the body and you cant count on your own enzymes to convert them into active steroids in the proportions that you would like if your HPA axis (hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal) and enzymes functioned so favourably you probably wouldnt be interested in prohormones anyway. If you do find one that works then hows that any different than taking the real thing? It isnt, and if that prohormone is a little too close to testosterone in structure then its just a matter of time until the law classifies it as the real thing anyway.
Any prohormone that actually works does so via the same exact mechanisms as FDA-identified anabolic steroids, though legally cannot be based on the testosterone molecule, and carries the same risks and produces the same exact side-effects as those steroids. And the simple rule is the same: The more you gain while on them, the more you lose when you come off (due to your own choice or when the government catches up). Just look at any drug-built bodybuilder who stopped using steroids and youll see this for yourself. In the long run, chasing gains out of a bottle is a futile endeavour. In fact, if you even have the attitude that you need such things then you have a major problem and need an attitude adjustment not to mention the fact that prohormones are banned by the drug-free bodybuilding and lifting federations and if they work theyll also show up on drug tests the same as anabolics (after all, the drug-test has no idea about your drugs FDA status). So if you ever plan on competing in natural bodybuilding or lifting contests and you take prohormones youll either flunk the drug test outright or the polygraph will catch you. Look inside yourself to build true muscle, not to the miracle supplement manufacturers who are in no way qualified to play with your hormones anyway. In the worst case, if you go chasing gains out of a bottle it could cost you your health, but most likely youll just end up wasting your money and wind up no further ahead with the exception of expensive urine and maybe a few moments of temporary glory with the meatheads in the gym. In the end, wouldnt you rather be able to say that you built your physique yourself, through your own dedication and persistence? Take steroids or legal loophole prohormones and you no longer have that right.
If youre tempted to go to the dark side of steroids or prohormones then ask yourself, are you really doing whats necessary to get your best gains naturally? Are you eating right? Are you getting enough protein? Are you sleeping right? Have you got stress and outside influences under control? Have you been training with passion or have your workouts gone flat lately? If you even suspect that you havent been giving any of these things your all (and be honest), then address those problems first, before you start risking your health and denying yourself the personal reward of knowing you succeeded because of you, not because you were weak and took some pills that any dick could have taken. If youve done all that, if you can honestly say that youve truly exhausted every avenue for natural improvement (and were talking a process of years here) but you still cant build the physique you want then ask yourself whether your desires are even reasonable. Read my article on natual potential and see if your expectations are realistic at all. A lot of advanced trainees are carrying plenty of muscle but simply dont know it because its been under a layer of fat for years. If youre smooth and cant see your abs then get lean before you assess your physique. You might be surprised, even shocked, at whats under that layer of fat (I was). If you can honestly say that youve devoted years to correctly applied training and nutrition, have realistic expectations, are lean enough to be able to make an accurate assessment of your physique, and dont have any psychological body dysmorphia problem, only then may you have to accept that youve hit your genetic ceiling. At that point you have to ask yourself are you content to accept the hand nature has delt you, or are you willing to risk your health and sacrifice your natural status to get bigger? How many people are actually in that situation? Very few of you reading this a helluva lot less than those who are interested in shortcuts regardless of the risks, or excuses to take those shortcuts.
See the bodybuilding and supplement industry for what it really is and stick to basic, hearty, healthy nutrition. Earn your muscle by training hard and eating right. Learn from what Ive learned the hard way in the past: SAVE YOUR MONEY! If you have some extra money spend it on some steak (or other good, high protein foods like milk, eggs, liver, yogurt, etc), not on the latest fad no matter how enticing the advertising is. Some supplements, such as vitamins, minerals, protein powder, desiccated liver and perhaps creatine are worthwhile and convenient, but they dont perform miracles. Which leads me to the next rule

Advertisement Early details suggest the browser-based service will let users share tracks and build group playlists. It will also apparently have a "scan and match" component similar to iTunes Match. That feature in iTunes Match finds songs that you've already got on your computer and offers up official, high bitrate versions, no questions asked. Spotify and Rdio also scan your library to add existing tracks to your cloud library, but it's unclear whether Microsoft's version would offer high quality downloads. It will reportedly be available on Windows 8, Android, iOS, and Xbox (and presumably Mac users will be fine since it's browser-based?).Microsoft shoving its way into entertainment isn't anything new—the Xbox is basically its AppleTV at this point—but the timing of the launch would be pretty symbolic: Instead of running out new gaming hardware at E3, Microsoft's got a music streaming service.

When I saw a backorder from Brownells, I came here to remind people what happened the last time they did this. I was surprised that someone still hadn't gotten their mags from that screwup, I know they were shipping them way out of order when they finally did get in.
I have an order for a case of 5.56 still outstanding from almost a year ago. It's like they just gamble on what the distributor will charge them, and if they gamble wrong, they just leave those orders in limbo forever.
Never place a backorder with Brownells, look up the last time they did it with Pmags if you need proof.
did you order windowed pmags

The question should also be; Did you order M2 or M3 in addition to you asking vaSrw about windowed or regular PMAGs..
I ordered M3 windowed PMAGs from Brownell long before Obama took office in his 2nd term, I simply gave up after many months of nothing. Magpul suggested I back-order from DSG arms. Great suggestion, I gave up waiting with them as well.
For whatever reason, the windowed M3's are not being shipped (or maybe not being manufactured) in the same volume as windowed M2 PMAGS.
PS, I got a few Windowed M3's locally and I honestly like the M2 windowed version better for one reason, the M3 in my opinion is about compatibility, when loading rounds by hand the top upper walls seem to flex, which could double-stack improperly.
No big deal as I'm fully satisfied with the M2 versions.

Defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders square off against Kings XI Punjab in Match 20 of Pepsi IPL 2013.
The Knight Riders will be high on confidence after their resounding 48-run win over Sunrisers Hyderabad on Sunday. It was as clinical a performance as one can get; the top four batsmen were all among the runs while the bowlers made good use of helpful conditions to strangle the opposition batsmen.
Kings XI Punjab meanwhile have a few things to worry about. After starting the tournament with an eight wicket victory over Pune Warriors India, the team has suffered two defeats after batting failures. In a tournament where most teams seem to be making optimum use of playing at home, Kings XI Punjab will be keen to protect their base too.
Tuesday, April 16, 2013, 4 p.m
Punjab Cricket Association Stadium, Mohali
The Protagonists
Kings XI Punjab will need a big contribution at the top from their skipper Adam Gilchrist. The Australian looked to be in good rhythm in the first game of the season but has since only managed nine runs in two innings. In a team that doesn't have too many experienced players – David Hussey is the only other experienced international T20 cricketer in the line-up – Gilchrist needs to fire at the top of the innings. On the bowling front, Praveen Kumar was outstanding in the previous match against the Rajasthan Royals; Kings XI Punjab will hope he can carry that form into this home game where the conditions are likely to favour the seam bowlers.
Though the Knight riders have several international players in the line-up, the one player who has had the most influence on their fortunes is skipper Gautam Gambhir. A very intense character on the field, Gambhir believes in leading by example and he will be aware that his performances have a significant bearing on his team's fortunes. KKR will also consider including Brett Lee for this match, given the likelihood of a seamer-friendly track at Mohali. The damage he can cause and how many runs KXIP can score off those four overs too will have a bearing on the result.
Previous Meetings
The Kolkata Knight Riders, who have won five of their nine matches against Kings XI Punjab, have a slight edge going into this contest.
Last season, both teams won their respective away matches. While Kings XI Punjab held their nerves to beat the hosts at Kolkata, the Knight Riders came back strongly to defeat Kings XI Punjab by eight wickets at Mohali.
Off the 10 times Gautam Gambhir has scored 50 or more for KKR, his team has gone on to win on eight occasions.
Teams chasing have done better at the PCA Stadium; off the last 10 IPL matches played at the venue, 7 have been won by teams chasing.
What Next
Kings XI Punjab will be seen in action next in three days time when they visit the Sunrisers Hyderabad on April 19. The Knight Riders meanwhile will head back home to host the Chennai Super Kings on April 20.

ASI/Restaurant Manager Launches the Powerful RM Monitor Application as a Native App for Droid
By: Business Wire
Nov. 19, 2012 03:34 PM
Action Systems, Inc. (ASI), makers of the Restaurant Manager Point-of-Sale System for the foodservice industry, today announced commercial availability of its mobile management application, RM Monitor, as a native app for Android phones. This service, which gives owners and managers remote access to key operational and management data, was initially introduced in May of 2010 as an iPhone application and the management teams of hundreds of restaurants and bars currently use it to stay on top of their business when off-site. "RM Monitor is a critical tool for us to keep track of what's going on in our restaurants," says Rivers Corbett, co-founder and president of Relish Gourmet Burgers, a quick service chain with eight locations throughout Canada. Anthony Clark, co-owner of Galway Bay Irish Pub in Annapolis, MD reports that "All of our managers use RM Monitor on a daily basis to stay informed about what's happening in the restaurant." "After seeing the great value the initial release of RM Monitor has provided to Restaurant Manager customers, we knew it was critical to make this technology more universally available by developing it as a native app for the Android platform," says Alex Malison, CEO of Action Systems. "RM Monitor provides Restaurant Manager customers a real advantage in the ultra competitive hospitality industry by allowing them to access and utilize information more quickly." With the introduction of RM Monitor as a native app for Android, Restaurant Manager customers with Droid phones will now have the ability to monitor information such as sales data, labor and cost ratios, and employee hours worked, from their smart phones. They can set up customizable alerts to notify them when, for example, potential fraud activities occur like voids and deletions. In addition to receiving pre-configured data, users can also request ad-hoc reports to be delivered in a scaled, readable PDF format. About ASI ASI was founded in 1987 and is a leading provider of cutting-edge point-of-sale and management software for the foodservice industry.
