Freelance Fest - Forum For Freelancers
Few days ago we have setup a new forum for all kind of online freelancers - Freelance Fest. Join the forum now and build up your community with world wide freelancers.
Site address: http://www.freelancefest.com
Before start, let's have a look into freelancer, freelancing & freelance marketplace. According to wikipedia,
How to start:
A freelancer, freelance worker, or freelance is a person who pursues a profession without a long-term commitment to any one employer.
Fields where freelancing is especially common include journalism and other forms of writing, copywriting, computer programming and graphic design, consulting, and many other professional and creative services.
Freelance marketplaces (or outsourcing marketplaces) are websites that match buyers and sellers of internet-provided services. Buyers and sellers of these services each setup profiles on the marketplace website. Seller profiles provide a description of the range of services offered, sample materials, rates, and details about the provider. Buyer profiles include descriptions and specifications of the work sought. Buyers and sellers are able to rate each other and provide positive and negative references/feedback.
At first browse different freelance marketplaces and try to understand their system, rules and project types. Then choose 2 or 3 sites and place your bids. Once you win a project, continue with that freelancing site and focus on improving your ranking and rating on that site.
Freelance marketplaces or sites are almost similar to each other. But everyone has their own features. In my experience, once you will feel comfort in a freelancing site and will get good amount of projects then you will not able to get projects from different freelancing site. So at the very beginning of your freelancing career browse as many sites as you can and then focus on one site.
Bookmark It!

I'm not going to bore you with a typical bio page
You're not here to read dreamy talk about how nature feeds my art goddess who inspires me to inspire you... Blech!
Want to know about me? I'm a professional technical illustrator- I paint and draw and do lots of artsy stuff. I'm not any different than the thousands of other trained artists you'll find on the internet today.
Here's what sets me and my website apart from the regular artist crowd:
I've developed a passion for finding frustrated artists- the people who once-upon-a-time talked themselves out of becoming an artist. They're now accountants or human resource specialists-- but deep in their hearts, they are and will always be an artist.
Many side-tracked artists feel really comfortable in the craft world. Maybe you're in a similar situation. You're not looking to drop your career to become a starving artist, you simply want to color or paint for the sheer joy it brings.
But here's the problem, if you hang out long enough in the craft world, especially when you take craft-level classes or instruction-- you begin to notice a disconnect.
Many craft stores carry artist grade, high quality materials but the average level of instruction remains back at the paint-by-number kit level. As a result, you own a craft room full of Ferrari tools but you're stuck with tricycle skills.
Basic level classes only feed your soul for so long. I think this is why many crafters change their mediums every few years- eventually your skills surpass the instructor. When there is no next step up, you abandon all the skills you've accrued in order to find challenges in a completely different craft area.
This is insane. The only people who benefit from the current system are retailers who live for the moment when you abandon one craft and purchase $500.00 worth of product and supplies for your new hobby.
Vanilla Arts Company is the next step for cardmakers, scrapbookers, stampers, and colorers. For the last seven years, I've been bringing fine art techniques to marker and colored pencil students. Students like you who need more than follow-the-leader style classes.
I want my students to improve their technical skills and their powers of observation. Most of my students do not realize that I'm stealth-teaching them how to draw and paint. I live for the light bulb moments, when a student finally sees the world not just in color but with light and shadow, line and form.
Join me here at Vanilla Arts Company. This is art for crafters. Fuel your long denied inner- artist with my tips, tutorials, and studio journal ramblings. Join the Free Digi Club or take an online class. If you're in South-Eastern Michigan, please join one of my many live classes. The goal is to keep you coloring rather than fluttering off to buy knitting supplies or stuff to weave baskets.
Take the next step beyond crafting to become the artist you were always meant to be.

Arsenal hero Paul Merson is backing Olivier Giroud for the Golden Boot.
Merson explained in his column for the Daily Star: "He's a man in form and he's going to play every week because Arsenal don't have anybody else.
"Van Persie may well get rested ahead of big games, and Suarez isn't playing at all yet because of his ban from last season.
"But there are plenty of other reasons why Giroud could end up top of the pile come the end of the season.
"He already has three goals this season and he looks a changed man. But now he has the perfect set-up man playing behind him in Mesut Ozil, he could be unstoppable."

Today, my own mini, self-imposed time trial. Can I sprint? Will I faint? Can I push myself? Am I just fooling myself?????? Well....... I ran a little over 2 miles booking it as much as my lungs would allow. I ran it in 17 minutes, 35 seconds. Essentially an 8.30 minute mile. Of course, most of it was downhill -- but I'll take it!! I realize to some of you following this blog that 8.25 is slow as syrup -- but to this nearly 43 year old body; it was heaven! And, at nearly 10,000 feet! Yahoo!! Then, I turned around and ran a mile completely up hill, blind turns, and nothing but concrete -- ouch!! But, I did it. Steep, steep, steep. At one point during this pithy "cool down"
distance an ambulance blew past me and for a split second, I thought it was coming for me! As I did my cool down -- I stopped to watch a chipmunk doing Lord knows what in the pine tree. Thinking to myself -- how blessed I am to be in this wonderful place and how neat that I am one with nature. Well, turns out, the damn thing was laughing at me. And I'm serious!! Just like Alvin. He must have been watching me attempt to run straight uphill. Time for a massage to heal my ego. I told the massage therapist that I was training for a marathon -- how far is that, she asked? I said 26.2 and the .2 is very important. So, are your muscles going to hurt? was her response. Hmmm -- maybe a massage was not the right solution to the chipmunk spank-down. For the next 80 minutes I learned about some basketball player who lost his limbs to some weird virus from sweating too much; how some kid from her college got meningitus [sp] from sharing a bong, how she hit a deer with her car and nearly lost her eye.....did I seriously pay for this relaxation? Saving grace -- she cranked on my IT band and almost sent me to the ceiling but it feels great now!! I digressed -- back to the purpose of this blog: Saturday, I'll take on the 8.5 that I keep saying I am going to do and keep talking myself out of doing. The first 3 miles is uphill --on one of those slow, nasty, and deceptive type of grades. Looks like it's flat until your legs are burning like the dickens and you realize that indeed, you are running up hill!! JPJ v. The Mountain will continue and I will conquer it!!

Comic Book Video Tutorials – How to Draw Interesting Poses
This is a tutorial on how to add variety and asymmetry to poses in order to get away from the boring look that is present in a lot of people's artwork. It's a bit of an intermediate level tutorial as you need to know how to turn forms in 3D space, but it's something to think about, even if you can't yet see the images in your mind.

Where Do You Come Up With This?!
Since grading papers can sometimes be a very daunting task, occasionally I'll have the kids take a test, exchange papers and we'll go through it as they grade each others' papers. Most of the kids love it, but some find it tedious and would rather that I do all the work. :) One of my boys complained that he didn't like it because whoever graded his paper the last time put HUGE check marks for correct answers, HUGE 'X's for wrong answers and drew a picture at the bottom. I don't understand why that is necessary for grading a paper, but apparently it was a more common concern than I thought, because other kids started piping up with the same news. Soooo, the next time we traded papers, I spent about 5 minutes going over appropriate etiquette for grading papers. I made sure to show them the correct size/location for a check mark, the correct size/location for an X, how to circle the correct answer, and reiterated that they should NOT draw anything anywhere on the paper. When I got the papers back, they looked MUCH better and cleaner... except for one paper. All over one girl's paper was written, "RUE THE DAY I TELL YOU!!" I'm sorry, have we gone back to the Shakespearean era? How come you don't know what our vocabulary words "anxious" or "leisure" mean, but you know the word "rue"?? And, since there is limited punctuation in your sentence, do you mean "Rue the day, I tell you." or "Rue the day I tell you."? Very different meanings. And who is this warning for?

London: Singer Robbie Williams thinks boyband One Direction can take over the world in the same way as the Spice Girls.
The 38-year-old Take That star said the band has the similar power of wooing the world as the famous girls` band, who shot to fame in the nineties, reported Sun online.
"They`re quite a power in the way the Spice Girls were. The Spice Girls took over the world and won and I think the One Direction boys have a similar chemistry," he said.
Considering Harry Styles dating the talented multi-millionaire country star Taylor Swift, Williams said the singer is like a magnet in the band.
"He`s a magnet like I`ve never seen before. I don`t think Harry needs any tips from me. He`s beguiling, and so is One Direction. I wasn`t him when I was 18. That didn`t happen to me," he added.

Now, this is just my opinion but I believe that it needs to be heard. Over the last maybe twenty years or so, our society has changed so much. We are so much more open to new things and different people. But there are a few people who are still stuck in the past. People who think all Muslims are terrorists or that all homosexuals will burn in hell or maybe that all african-americans are troublemakers. There's still so much hate in a society that's trying to move forward and it's pushing us back. It's making it harder for us to move forward. We need to realize that we are all different and we need to realize that we are also all the same. We all bleed the same color. We all feel the same things may it be love, sympathy, empathy, sadness and yes, hate. But some of us don't realize this. They want to think that some people are just too different to be the same. Those are the people that are separating us, keeping us from moving forward and improving ourselves and our society, and until they accept that we are different but also the same, we need to stay together. Muslims need to have the backs of homosexuals, homosexuals need to have the backs of african-americans, african-americans need to have the backs of hispanics and the line goes on. We need to look out for each other because it's better to stand together than fight alone.

Getting It Together, Man
Hi, Chas. I thought it would be brilliant to get a blog together of the old band. What do you think? I don't know any of their emails. I don't even know if they're still alive to be frank. Although I'm not Frank. I'm Derek. yes, still the comedian in the band. I've used our original name for the Blog as Blogger wouldn't let me use Blizzard, as we latterly came to be known. I guess there must be another band with that name. Anyway, let me know what you think. I don't suppose you have any of the old tapes we made?

You can use kimono's attribute extractor in advanced mode to select hidden data - elements in the DOM that are not visible on the webpage (and therefore not clickable within kimono's extractor view).
First inspect the DOM to view the HTML structure for the element you want to select. Next navigate to advanced mode by clicking on the data model view and then on 'Advanced'.
From here, adjust the CSS selectors to extract the element you want. A great workaround to get you most of the way there with your CSS is to select an element close to the one you want on the page, then tweak the CSS selector.
Next click on 'attributes':
And from here select 'hidden data':
click Apply, and then reopen the attributes extractor window again. You will be able to check which hidden attributes exactly you want extracted from your element.
You can spawn more data types by clicking the plus icon on the toolbar.

History is repeating itself so far. Similar patterns exist between India's rise to the top of the ICC Test Rankings in 2009, and their return now to the top of the chart after the second Test against New Zealand. But can this Indian team match the glory days of 2009?
According to Friedrich Nietzsche's Doctrine of Eternal Recurrence, "Time is a flat circle. Everything we have done or will do, we will do over and over and over again- forever."—which translates to the fact that history has a tendency of repeating itself. However, Mark Twain believed, "History doesn't repeat itself but it often rhymes."
Napolean Bonaparte and Adolf Hitler failed in a similar manner—both sent their troops into battle ill-prepared for the impending winter in Russia. The 'Great Recession' of 2007 has been seen by many as the repeat of the 'Great Depression' in the 1930s—both came as a result of Banking greed. Historical rhymes or general human tendency to look for patterns?
Similar patterns exist between India's rise to the top of the ICC Test Rankings in
It was the worst of times in 2000. The match-fixing scandal had rocked Indian cricket. Sachin Tendulkar had stepped down from his captaincy, and India
Move forward to the period from 2011 to 2014—Aging legends Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman, Virender Sehwag, and Zaheer Khan were phased out of the team during this period. India
History continued to rhyme, though.
Two men, who were, initially, perceived to be too arrogant and brash for the gentlemanly game of cricket, took over the reins of the Indian cricket team during both these tumultuous periods.
Two men, who were, initially, perceived to be too arrogant and brash for the gentlemanly game of cricket, took over the reins of the Indian cricket team during both these tumultuous periods—Sourav Ganguly in 2000 and Virat Kohli in 2015. Arrogance, though, is accompanied by undying self-belief—and that is what Indian cricket needed during both these times.
Ganguly's Indian team's journey to the top was more perilous and took longer. In fact, by the time his team made it to the top in 2009, for the first time since ICC's Test rankings came into existence, Ganguly had retired from international cricket. MS Dhoni was the skipper, but the groundwork for it had been laid long back.
Under Ganguly's captaincy, the team stopped an all-conquering Australian side from capturing their final frontier—India. Then the team went to Australia's backyard and an unlikely series win was well within their reach until that final day at SCG. They won their first series in
Virat Kohli, on the other hand, had a blueprint to follow. After a period of defensive captaincy in the longer format of the game under MS Dhoni, Kohli arrived like a breath of fresh air with his uninhibited aggression. He announced his arrival at the helm with a century against Australia, and it did not
That series started the downfall of the Indian team, who were No.1 in Tests for two years, and, incidentally, that was also the series when Virat Kohli made his Test debut. Four years later, India won its first away Test series in four years under the captaincy of Kohli in Sri Lanka. They conquered a world-class South African side at
Murali Vijay, Ishant Sharma, and the recently-recalled Gautam Gambhir are the only players remaining in this Indian squad who were present in the team when they reached the No.1 spot in 2009. Amit Mishra was mostly a fringe player back then, and he still remains so.
Comparing two teams from two different eras is a difficult task. The sport in itself has changed a lot over the last decade. The pitches are different, opponents are different, and so is the interest in the Test format itself.
The batting lineup of that team from 2009 contained what was arguably the best middle-order in Indian cricket's history. The
Compared to that squad, this current Indian team looks average despite the fact that most of these players are supposed to be in their primes given their age.
Compared to that squad, this current Indian team looks average despite the fact that most of these players are supposed to be in their primes given their age. They are too dependent on Ravichandran Ashwin to pick up wickets in a match, and they rely a bit too much on Cheteshwar Pujara and Ajinkya Rahane to score the runs. Even Virat Kohli, India's best batsman at the moment, has not quite been able to transfer his sublime form in the limited overs format
On paper, that Indian team is way ahead in terms of quality. However, that difference also hints at the general drop in the quality of cricketers, and cricket in general, over the past decade. The England team or the Australian team that the Indian team of 2009 had faced was so superior to their respective teams now. But then again, you can only eat what is being served.
However, even this Indian team can match the pinnacle reached by the previous team. Of course, tougher challenges await them. How they perform away from home in England, Australia, and South Africa would decide how big this team's legacy would be—that is where the difference between good teams and great teams lie.

Feeling Nautical19:00
Every so often, I get obsessed with a trend and have to buy everything in every shape and colour. At the minute, I just can't get enough of statement sleeves, so when I spotted this nautical fan-sleeve number in the Zara sale, I just had to snap it up.
Stripes are such a great wardrobe staple – throw on a pair of jeans with a striped top and you've got that classic, girl-next-door kind of vibe, which you just can't go wrong with! A simple Breton stripe can go a long way in a girls wardrobe; you'll be surprised at how many things you can team it up with.
I've worn my stripes tucked into my ASOS boyfriend jeans, with some killer heeled boots from Miss Selfridge and my trusty leather bakerboy hat which I picked up from our local craft market. Because it's leather, I can throw it in my handbag and it won't get out of shape, which is always a bonus!
If you're feeling nautical, shop some of my favourite nautical-inspired pieces in the edit below.

Days 36 & 37 since October. 20-21 at Edelweiss in just over 2 months, since December 12th. Did I ever mentioned that I've never skied more than 17 times at the same ski area in a single season since I've been tracking my days over 30 seasons ago?
To my defense, I knew exactly what I was giving up this season when I started the my kids wants to race post back in September. I'm not having buyer's remorse, but I'm definitely having Edelweiss / locals / small hill fatigued. That was my biggest negative when my daughter told me she wanted to race. It would be okay if she would race for Whiteface, MRG or Sugarloaf…yeck I would even settle for Tremblant, but the logistics of being far from those ski areas didn't make feasible.
I just need the big vertical, I don't really care about the conditions. I'm getting tired of skiing Zoomer and Strief. I remember that I had a similar feeling in the last few seasons when I raced in University back in the early 90s. Those seven seasons pushed me to go further once no longer racing. Avoiding any small hills with a passion. Anyway, I was looking forward to get away at March Break.
I cannot remember the specific of these days, that is the problem with days like these. There was another Kunstadt Demo day on Sunday and I tried a few skis, however the Stocki was on a trial basis for the store and they didn't have the only pair. Contrary to the previous demo day earlier in the month, I didn't see anything that I really like. I guess it was that type of weekend.
This was the first weekend of non racing weekend for her since that last demo day. This was going to be good for her. Saturday was Slalom and Sunday GS training. Temperature started off at -15c on the first day and warm up to -10c. It was a bit warmer on Sunday with a -13c to -5c change during that day. It had also snow a bit overnight.
While Morgane was training, I was either skiing solo or with parents and grand-parents. Ted and Gail are pretty amazing, they are here every day regardless of the conditions. They have 3 grandkids in the race program, their son is the prez of the Club and fellow Masters racers before his injuries the previous season. For and foremost, I've known Ted and Gail from their own Masters racing days. Gail had one to two hips replacements in her sixties, but still came back for a few races. They weren't competitive with most of us, but they participate and where amongst the regulars on our Wednesday night series. They stopped racing shortly after they retired as they preferred natural light for their skiing. I might be mistaken, but I believe they are about my mother's age and still skiing. My mom had stopped Alpine skiing in her sixties. I don't know how they do it…out everyday and skiing Edelweiss now that they are retired. It's great exercise and they probably get way more run per day at Edelweiss than I do. I don't think I could do it in the future. I cannot even do it now.
Always great fun to ski with them. Next week I'm going to Jay Peak for the Northeast Ski Blogger Summit so hopefully it's going to cheer my spirits' up until we go on March break.
This is what happens when your Suunto datalog fills up. I skied 12 runs on Saturday and 14 on Sunday.

What is Traffic Junky?
If you have come across ads or pop-ups provided by Traffic Junky, it is a strong indication that some sort of adware program is active on your PC. Traffic Junky by itself is not a malicious program; it is just an adware server that is contacted by an adware program in order to present the user with numerous third-party ads and pop-ups. This experience is, obviously, annoying and frustrating, because it will constantly disturb your web browsing. If you have encountered this suspicious behavior while browsing the web, do not hesitate to check your PC for suspicious third-party applications. If any kinds of adware programs are found running on your PC, take immediate measures to remove them. Read the rest of this article and find out more about the Traffic Junky adware server.

What does Traffic Junky do?
Traffic Junky does not do anything on its own. Ads provided by this server are a direct consequence of an adware program running on your PC. Such programs usually will flood your web browser with ads, coupons, and pop-ups as soon as they are up and running on your PC. In addition to that, it is known that most of the adware applications of today are capable of tracking information about your browser habits. This information might be sold or shared with third-party associates, which are usually questionable to say the least.
Malware experts at Anti-Spyware-101.com advise you not to click on anything that Traffic Junky might provide you with, as adware servers are known to be associated with malware distribution. By clicking on anything that is brought to you by Traffic Junky, you run the risk of being redirected to suspicious third-party websites. You could end up on web pages associated with malware promotion; this, obviously, could have devastating outcomes. If you want to have an operating system that is free of any kind of infection, removal of an adware program linked to Traffic Junky is a must.
Where do adware programs linked to Traffic Junky come from?
In most cases, adware programs are distributed via bundled installers, which are hosted on questionable third-party download websites. Users usually get their systems infected due to the lack of attention paid while executing the setup process. While installing any kind of software onto your PC, your utmost attention is required, as you might be able to cancel any additional unwanted installation processes. The best way to reduce the risk of getting your PC infected with any kind of Internet-based infection is to have an active antimalware tool at all times.
How to remove and adware application
Fortunately, adware programs are not that difficult to remove, as most of them can be deleted via Control Panel. You should know that it is very important to check your PC for any potential leftovers, since frequently a suspicious application liked to Traffic Junky might have a few files or registry keys active on your PC even after manual removal is executed.

Homemade Burger Buns
It's very fitting for my first post to be about something that I made for dinner ;)
Anyone who knows me knows that I love to cook and that I am not shy about trying new things in the kitchen. I love cooking because you get to dream, create, problem solve, and occasionally fail; but it's all part of the process. The possibilities are endless.
I will also admit to being an avid cookbook junkie. I get them at bookstores, yard sales, and have a whole wishlist dedicated to them on Amazon. You always know what I would be happy to get for my birthday. I feel like you can learn a lot about life & the world through reading cookbooks, somethings that I don't get as readily through my culinary internet wanderings.
For Christmas this year my mother in law bought me a new favorite... The Homemade Pantry by Alana Chernila (see it here on Amazon).
I love, love, LOVE this book. The way it is written is like having coffee and conversation with a friend. With every recipe there is a story from her own life, and the things she writes about have a pleasant, normalizing quality to them. It's refreshing. Not to mention the recipes are fantastic and have helped me cut out some extra unhealthies from our diet, and have saved my butt a time or two.
A few days ago was one such time when my butt needed saving. Grocery shopping was 2 days away, we had nothing in the fridge besides some ground beef and pickles. When that happens, it can only mean that we are fated to drag out the grill and have some burgers. Unfortunately, no burger is complete without a bun. So what is Little Mother Hubbard with her bare cupboard to do? MAKE SOME!!
You can view the recipe here on Alana's blog if you are so inclined to try them yourself... I am just going to share pictures of my empowering bun making experience.
The burgers were so good, it made me sad that we only had pickles and lettuce to put on them. I usually like bacon and grilled pineapple rings on mine.
What are some of your favorite burger toppings?

Louis Gallois, chief executive of EADS, has published an open letter to staff attempting to dampen speculation over the future of senior executives caught up in an investigation into suspected insider dealing.
He said EADS was a sound business and its top managers remained focused on production and sales targets. "I want to express my confidence in them," he said in the letter. He urged staff not to be distracted by "a crisis that has nothing to do with the fundamentals of our business".
The aerospace group has been engulfed in controversy after a preliminary report by France's stock market regulator into alleged insider dealing was leaked to Le Figaro last week. The report said 21 EADS executives, or managers at its Airbus subsidiary, had sold shares in the period under review.
The AMF's final report on the affair is not expected until next year, leaving the scandal hanging over EADS as it prepares for the much-delayed delivery of the first Airbus A380 to Singapore Airlines at the start of next week.
Last week EADS said the leaked report was a violation of the confidentiality of the investigation and of the principle of the presumption of innocence. "EADS will not comment further on the matter."
Since then, however, executives have come under pressure to comment. Thomas Enders, head of Airbus, has denied wrongdoing over options he exercised two years ago. "I categorically deny the allegations and insinuations in the press."

text: Welcome to world of Caelus: Earth is no longer the beauty it use to be with the large buildings, towers and lights. The people of earth didn't see any of it coming; didn't know their government had so many secrets under the wraps. Before the fall of earth, the government had spent over 50 years experimenting on hundreds of criminals that had been locked up behind the red zone. Unfortunately something went wrong with several of their experiments and many of the criminals natural form turned into that of monsters. To cover this up the government built walls around themselves and the citizens to protect them. This left any 'normal' Criminal to defend themselves against the monsters who seem to grow stronger and smarter by the day. Now that the monsters threaten to destroy those precious walls, the government needs help. Now is the time they must rely on the only people with the skills to eliminate the threat. The very people they threw away and forsaken. The government has injected a chip within each and every single one of the criminals... or at least the ones that had been strong enough to survive the experiments that had been forced upon their bodies. These chips are tiny little bombs that can tear their head apart within seconds of it being activated by remote. If the criminals act up, it isn't rare to see them end up electrocuted as punishment. Most people haven't been able to move on from the old earth and refuse to move within Caelus; they live beyond the walls. Luckily the monsters seem to be fearful of light so they attack at night. Of course attacks don't happen every second but when they do happen, the Criminals are in charge of tracking down the monster and destroying them. 1. The Governement- they are strict in their laws and have absolutely no pity for the Criminals that were forced to get rid of the monsters and beasts that forced the people of Caelus to live behind walls. 2. Citizens- This is the place that holds those who have clean clothes, good food, warm beds and their daily activities (as many as they can within the walls) 3. Red Zone- Where the criminals who have been locked up stay. They aren't given protection from others and must save themselves. Most people make gangs, showing they aren't alone and have back up if they are messed with. No unlimited space

BMW has all of the bases covered in its lineup, especially when it comes to its 4 Series models. Don't like going to the track? There's the BMW 430i and 440i, which are available as a coupe and gran coupe. Drivers looking for a track-friendly car that can also be used on the road will be steered toward the M4. BMW even built the hardcore M4 GTS for drivers that spend all of their time on a track. Now, it looks like BMW is trying to bridge the gap between the M4 and the M4 GTS with a special-edition model.
Our photographers caught BMW testing an M4 with some extreme aerodynamic components around theNurburgring. With its aggressive front end, massive wing, and sporty rear diffuser, the prototype M4 appears to be similar to the special-edition M4 Competition Sport that BMW released in Spain. The Spain-only special edition was marketed as a softer version of the M4 GTS with less power and usable rear seats. With a similar look and visible rear seats, this prototype indicates a similar track-focused special edition model.
Since the M4 is only a few years old, it's unlikely that BMW is testing a new model, but the automaker could be testing aerodynamic components for a refreshed model down the road. A cheaper, more usable M4 GTS, though, would be the perfect car to round out BMW's current lineup.

I should have mentioned yesterday that TNieto retains copyright of all these photos. If you want to use any of them just drop us a line (threedaywalkaz at yahoo dot com) I'm sure she would be okay with it but ya hafta ask first!
If I tried to climb up the bleachers in a long dress I would still be in the hospital!
I know why she's crying. Makes me want to cry too. And go hug my mom!
I would know that ribbon anywhere! Hi Dave!
This is Jeannie telling the person who is flagging down the sweep bus that they are going to get their tukas back in gear and keep walking. Or else!
The good part is the person did keep walking. The bad part is that the person wasn't on our team!
Miss Tina always manages to appear calm and serene and contented. I want to know what she's really thinking!
Okaaaaaay. Jeannie thought this guy was a hoot. At this point in the walk they had passed into Scottsdale but were still in Lower Scottsdale - where you can't get arrested just for being tacky!
Cute kid. And loyal too. And still several years from teenagehood! Yea!
Another cute kid!
So very nice to see a yard sign that has NOTHING to do with politics!
Yep, that would be Team H.O.P.E. getting a perfect score, naturally.

The International Biennial Association
The International Biennial Association (IBA) is a non-for-profit arts association composed of institutions, individuals and associates from the Biennial community and arts-related industry created to expand and share activities of curatorial and artistic creation and knowledge production through cooperation and exchange among biennials and institutions, contributing to the development of cultural and artistic production by providing strategies, methodologies and vision through a platform for collaboration and support among a network of art professionals. 60'ın üzerinde bienal temsilcisinin katıldığı "Bienal Temsilcileri Toplantısı" kapsamında gerçekleştirilen tartışmalar sonucunda, Uluslararası Bienaller Birliği fikri formüle edildi.
In October of 2012, The World Biennial Forum No1, "Shifting Gravity," was held in Gwangju, South Korea, gathering over 450 participants across 150 international art biennials, triennials and art-related institutions.

Nice apartment but complex too big for my taste
The Woodlands is the most unprofessional, subpar community I've ever lived in. There are roaches everywhere. It doesn't matter how clean of a person you are, it's almost inevitable here. The management seems to change quite often and their transitions are sloppy. I've only come across two people in the front office who seem to have a clue and speak without condescending tones. There are constantly people digging through the trash. The only good things about this community is the proximity to the expressways and stores.
I get all the info and more. It really helps to be able to go to page and get all you need. Really easy to use.

Toni Braxton about Plastic Surgery & marriage with Keri Lewis; Are they getting divorce?
The Grammy Award-winning singer Toni Braxton split with husband Keri Lewis a few years back. They ended up their marriage relationship after twelve years. This couple together had two sons to whom both are actively involved in raising. Being with Keri, Toni felt like she was staying with a wrong man and figured out that her life has nothing to do with him. And maybe you have heard about her revelation of plastic surgery. She has opened up about the surgery revealed that she hated herself the way she looked before.
After Toni marriage life ended she became more focused on her professional career. Later she started revealing about her personal life about how much she complex circumstances arose in her life where she had to make a tough decision to move one's life. Toni revealed her actual reason behind all the unwanted plastic surgery she did.
Toni Braxton reveals plastic surgery
Toni Braxton opened up about all the suffering she passed through in her life and how helpless she feels when she sees her children in one of the interviews she gave. She told that the main cause of the decision to have plastic surgery was an abortion she had in the past. She once had the powerful acne medication Accutane, which was clinically linked to causing serious side effects to a fetus.
Get #HaveYourselfAMerryLittleChristmas by @tonibraxton & @KennyEdmonds (babyface) here ?? https://t.co/z1pRGPbbQ6— IG:BraxtonFValues (@BraxtonFValues) November 23, 2016
"I never thought I would have to do that" Toni starts to speak up being very emotional. "I felt selfish because I was thinking I'm going through bankruptcy, there're things going on my life, I can't give my kid any future… just feeling hopeless for no reason. What was I thinking?"
Toni Braxton then again adds, "I am not really embarrassed about it, I am more ashamed of myself for doing that because I could've figured something out financially. That was just an excuse I was making for myself." Toni really loves her boys Denim and Deizel. She regrets more about the abortion she did because her son Deizel was diagnosed with Autism. She feels as if it is the way of God punishing her.
Toni Braxton and Keri Lewis
Toni Braxton and Keri Lewis got separated in the year 209 as in October of 2012 at the VH1 Behind the Music special she told, "I had to figure out a plan for my life that has nothing to do with him". "I was angry with everybody. I couldn't believe this was happening to me. I felt that I was a person dealing with a lot of struggles and here comes another one."
Toni Braxton and Keri Lewis married in Atlanta in April 2001 where many famous celebs attended the wedding like Usher and Monica, Tionne 'T-Boz' Watkins and Rozonda 'Chilli' Thomas. This couple got divorced in 2009 and the following year Toni suffered from bankruptcy and was also diagnosed with lupus.

- Atta (1 cup)
- Ripe Banana (2)
- Apple (1)
- Baking Soda and baking powder (half a teaspoon each)
- Honey (optional)
- Butter (quarter cup) or Vegetable oil (quarter cup)
- Handful of raisins (optional)
- Yoghurt (2 teaspoons - optional)
- Sieve the Atta (Whole wheat flour) along with half a teaspoon of Baking Powder and Baking Soda.
- In a blender, add Bananas and apple and blend well.
- Mix the blended Apple-Banana mixture into the Atta. Make sure there are no lumps.
- Slowly add the Butter/oil and contiue mixing.
- You can include the honey at this stage, depending on how much sweetness you require.
- Optional sweeteners - dates or raisins can be blended along with Apple and Banana for extra sweetness if needed.
- Check the consistency of the batter. Should not be too thick or too runny. Just enough to be pourable or spreadable by spoon.
- Add raisins at this stage. If you wish, you can include some walnuts as well.
- If the batter is too thick, you can add a teaspoon or 2 of yoghurt. Or if it is too thick, adjust with a little extra Atta.
- Baking tray - you can use as per your oven. Grease by applying butter and lightly dust with flour.
- Baking timing depends upon the oven. 180 Degrees Celsius for 40-45 minutes. Check with a fork at around 40 minute mark.
- I use a Usha Halogen Oven and I find that the top becomes too crusty, while the bottom is still uncooked. To balance this, I baked at 180 Degrees Celsius for 25 minutes (with the top covered), 10 minutes with the top exposed for crust to be formed.
- Let the cake remain in the oven for about 15 minutes. Slowly take it out and invert. If the bottom still feels slightly uncooked, pop it into the oven for 5 minutes at 180 C (with the inverted side up).
- Let it completely cool before slicing :-)
And here's the completed cake :-)
A bit of chocolate sauce on top, just about completes it :D
This is perfect for snacks, or as a travel food and stays good for 2-3 days in a airtight container. Can be used refrigerated for upto 1 week.

For the mother of the year award? Man what a stupid day! Nathan was a dream today, like his usual self, all it took was a $20 co-pay to snap him out of his mood. We were playing and I decided, hey, I bet he'd be damn cute if I could spike his hair!
I put some palm aide in it, it did not stand up, it was not cute. Neither is the rash it left on his forehead.
Oh and just for fun- his cunker'oo butt weighed in at 19lbs 12 oz.

Drummers are considered the beat of the band. He produces the note pattern to follow, and enhances the overall quality of the composition by doing magical tricks using his instruments.
In any case, drummers are essential players in a band. However, becoming a drummer is not that easy. You would need a lot of drum techniques and knowledge on some of the most basic tricks.
If you are a budding drummer who is starting your way towards this arena, you can readily use the technique of bass drum muffling. This article will discuss the importance of this skill.
To become an expert drummer, you need to have full control on the music that your drum provides. Most of the time, you role is to create those beats from the drums. This is done, as you might have known, by beating them using your sticks.
The problem rises, though, if you do not want a drum to produce sound. The problem further complicates if the drum you want to mute is already vibrating. Creating vibration is much easier, but cutting a vibration can become a problem. The technique called bass drum muffling will help you do this.
It is very important for you to master this technique of cutting off the sound produced by your bass drum. You would not want to mess with the beats that you are creating using the other drums, so keeping your bass quite is an important skill.
Moreover, if you want to highlight the tone produced by a certain beat in a certain drum group, you would definitely need to mute the other drums. Most of the time, it is the bass drum that needs muffling.
Since the sound it produce only complements the beat from the other drums, keeping it silent for some time will let your audience hear what you are trying to create. Without muffling your bass, you will surely have a problematic time on isolating the sound you wants to blast off.
Another reason why drum muffling is important is the silence it creates. Since a band is made up of several components, a musical composition might need to highlight the other components of the band. There might be moments where the sound you audience should hear is the vocals only, or the lead guitar only.
Whatever the case, in these instances, your bass drum should not be vibrating. Any vibration in your drums will still create sound waves into the air. These unnecessary sound waves can affect the musical quality of the component your band is focusing. Only by muffling the drum will you be able to shut the sound completely.
To ensure that you can take advantage of this technique, you can do your own research on some of the steps to enhance the efficiency of bass drum muffling. By gathering more knowledge about this skill, you will be able to have a good grip on the notes that you want to create.
Besides, this is the primarily role of a drummer. Hence, aside from knowing how to produce notes in your drums, you should also know how to stop those notes when the situation needs it.
Do you want to improve your bass drum skills, power and control? Bass Drum Secrets 2.0 is a step by step video course that will transform and help drummers of all levels improve their bass drum techniques. Whether you are into double bass pedals or using the default single pedal, you will see immense improvements in your drumming immediately.

In the last blog entry, "Heraclitus, Change and ETL", I described three scenarios that, as IT professionals, we never want to encounter twice. All of these scenarios were rooted in an inability to adapt to change.
In the first scenario, the business loses the opportunity to reduce its cost because the legacy ETL applications are wedded to your existing technology. Years ago, the decision was made to tightly couple the applications to the technology to gain the best possible performance. It was a good decision then — performance has been stellar, even at one time extraordinary. Today, however, that decision is a constraint, and costs the company a significant cost-savings opportunity.
What do you say to the business? You could defend the tight-coupling decision, but that doesn't move you forward to the next opportunity. Unless you take action, you may find yourself making the same defense in another 12 months. That won't be a meeting you will enjoy.
In the second scenario, the business is not offered the choice, only an impending and unavoidable disruption. When you chose this software tool several years ago, you paid due diligence to the vendor's financial stability and outlook. But the unthinkable has happened — the economy sank, the bubble burst, credit became more difficult to get and the vendor is now floundering. There is no problem with the tool — it works as well as ever. But it no longer has a future and your investment in that tool is now at risk. This is the problem of the whole-solution product. You have your whole application, indeed the life-blood of your data warehouse, tied to this soon-to-be-obsolete product.
There is no easy way out of this predicament, but that's not the question. The question is, as you bite the bullet and move your application out from under this deprecated product, what can you do to avoid landing right back into the same trap? You could search for the vendor that you're certain will never fail — but in these times there are no sure bets. The product you need most may be the product of a new and financially unproven vendor. Should you bet your job on the new vendor? Or bet your job on the proven track record? How about if you don't bet your job at all?
The third scenario goes to the heart of the cost-saving pressures that we face every minute. Staffing an ETL project presents its own set of challenges; you need expertise in a variety of tools and platforms — just one skill won't do. Every additional source or system type added to your ETL mix has a multiplier effect on the staffing needs. As the total warehouse becomes more complex, the number of outsourcing options diminish geometrically, until — as in one case — the number of staffing options is reduced to zero.
What choices do you have? Of course, one option is to take the single-platform route — move all of your data warehouse platforms to a single family, and get by with one set of skills and tools. But this seems oddly reminiscent of other constraining problems.
What if you could use individuals who each add one expert skill to the team? And what if the very unique skills could be hired as temporary help, to fill the gap? And what if each expert could build their part of the solution knowing only how that part fit with other parts — but not knowing how the other parts worked? This has worked for years in other industries — why not in your multi-platform, multi-tool ETL shop?
I described three scenarios that are at the heart of what frustrates the business about IT. ETL 3.0 will help you avoid these scenarios in the future, but it's important, first, to understand that these situations are not an inevitable part of delivering high-performing or quick-to-market IT solutions.
To meet the pace of change in technology and business that is part of the current marketplace, IT must remove the threat of vendor breakdowns, and exploit the advantages of lower-cost solutions while still meeting — and exceeding — the demand for new capabilities. As IT Professionals, our choices cannot simply be about leveraging the proprietary [and cool] features of a particular technology or having one technical part operating as fast as possible or focusing on the initial speed to implement or cost to deploy. Our focus must be on how we remove business barriers, how we empower the business to respond to competitive threats and how we contribute to business value.
This focus on the business is at the heart of ETL 3.0. I'll describe that in the next dispatch.
