I have a new found love - BUTTERFISH!!!! This delectable, melt in your mouth, sensational fish is also called Gindara . It is perhaps the best raw fish that I have ever tasted. I was lucky enough to have it provided as a main ingredient in my appetizers for one of Peter's parties.
After a full day of shopping and design with Peter; he still has energy to prepare a fabulous evening for a couple of close friends.....29 people!!!
Here is Peter collaborating with another passionate designer. Chen is a master with stainless steel; bending and welding it into organic shapes.
I watched intently as I saw them share ideas without even speaking. THe paper was scribbled on and then passed to the other and then "hmmms", "sighs" and eye expressions and then the paper filled with prospective designs was passed to the other and then he would scribble below and it went on and on....
I squatted next to these artisans to watch them closely. They talked and laughed as they worked; seeming so at ease with their delicate and complicated tasks.
Chen was so enamored with Peter's energy that he suggested that we visit his brother's glass factory. So, off we went....wow!!!! AS I wandered around eyeing the various platters, glasses and plates I envisioned tables of geometric tapas meals served in these incredible works of art.
I love these triangular plates!!!!!
Then it was onto stone carvings. Selecting unique carvings from an enormous collection can be hard on the eyes, but he keeps going despite the heat and dust......
Oh what a day! Peter did not loose the pace for the entire day. He was attentive to each detail, answered every question asked with care and still had energy and ideas for the evening festivities at his villa that night.
. PEter and NAsh were completely relaxed (Peter is flying through the air...literally), despite their hectic days.
As usual they did not miss any details from the flowers to the house drink concoction, food and entertainment.
I was given the task of preparing the apps and so I sliced and slivered 2 kilos of fresh butterfish and tuna into various canapes and a giant sashimi platter (served with Hopey's spicy mayo)!
APPETIZERS- *tuna tartar with garlic chives and sesame seeds served with wasabi cream * butterfish tartar with pickled ginger and soy syrup *Nash's tuna and butterfish wontons with soy dipping sauce * Chili oil spiced fuji apple coleslaw with toasted nuts served on endive leaves.
It was a cool 95 degrees at 8 pm. You can imagine the sweat rolling off of Hopey's proverbial drain pipes. Although our appetites seemed to battle the dark forces of humidity and we scooped up every last sashimi tidbit and moved right along to the Indonesian 'Nasi Campur' buffet- a selection of stirfries, curries and sate dishes to accompany the yellow rice.
OH, and the monkeys ate pringles......
What a night!

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, APPELLEEv.CINQUE LEWIS, APPELLANT.
The Honorable Justice Freeman delivered the opinion of the court. Justice Harrison, dissenting.
The opinion of the court was delivered by: Freeman
JUSTICE FREEMAN delivered the opinion of the court:
Following a jury trial in the circuit court of Cook County, defendant, Cinque Lewis, was convicted of murder (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1985, ch. 38, par. 9-1(a)(2)) and armed robbery (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1985, ch. 38, par. 18-2(a)). Thereafter, the same jury found defendant eligible for the death penalty and, further, that there were no mitigating facts sufficient to preclude death. Defendant was sentenced to death on the murder conviction and to a term of 30 years' imprisonment for the armed robbery conviction.
Defendant appealed directly to this court (Ill. Const. 1970, art. VI, § 4(b); Ill. Rev. Stat. 1991, ch. 38, par. 9-1(i); 134 Ill. 2d R. 603), and sentence has been stayed pending our review (134 Ill. 2d Rules 603, 609(a)). We affirm defendant's convictions and sentence for armed robbery; vacate his death sentence; and remand for a new death sentencing hearing.
Defendant asserts numerous errors at every phase of the proceedings. Rather than list them here, we will state each as it is considered in the opinion.
The following evidence was adduced at trial. Brunell Donald, age 15, testified that on November 5, 1985, she lived with her mother, Yvonne Donald, and younger sister, Quiana, in an apartment at 4848 North Winthrop Avenue in Chicago. Brunell was then 10 years old and in the fifth grade. On the afternoon of November 5, she was watching television when someone knocked on the door. Brunell asked and was given permission by her mother to answer. She went to the door, asked who was there, and heard a reply, "C.Q."
Brunell had seen C.Q. in the lobby of the apartment building on prior occasions. She had also heard his voice about 5 or 10 times before, once in her home, and most recently, on the morning of November 5, in the lobby of her apartment building. On that particular morning, Brunell had conversed with C.Q. concerning her mother.
Upon ascertaining C.Q.'s identity, Brunell asked her mother if she wanted her to open the door. Her mother responded affirmatively, reached into her back pants pocket and pulled out a key. Brunell took the key, unlocked the door and opened it. C.Q. was there. Brunell identified defendant in court as the person known to her as C.Q.
Once inside the apartment, defendant went into the living room and sat on the couch next to Yvonne Donald. Quiana, the younger child, lay sleeping next to Yvonne. Brunell continued watching television while defendant and Yvonne talked. Moments later Yvonne told Brunell to take the television and go into the "back room" (one of the bedrooms in the apartment). Brunell complied, leaving the door to the "back room" open.
Brunell continued watching television in the "back room." Upon hearing her mother scream, Brunell ran into the hallway, where she saw "C.Q. over [her] mother stabbing her." As Brunell stood screaming, "C.Q. turn[ed] around and face[d] [her] and told [her] to stop." Brunell stopped screaming and defendant, again, started stabbing Yvonne. When Brunell started screaming again, defendant then told her to go to her room or he would kill both her and her mother. Brunell estimated her distance from defendant and her mother at the time to be about 25 feet.
Defendant turned back to Yvonne, "rolled her up and *** took the key out of her back pocket." He then went to the door and, with the knife and the key in his right hand, attempted to unlock the door. Unsuccessful in his attempt, he summoned for Brunell to open the door and handed her the key.
Brunell unlocked the door, leaving the key in the lock. Defendant then took the key, "turn[ed] it again," pulled it out of the lock and ran out of the apartment. Defendant took the key with him.
After defendant left, Brunell went over to her mother, and then telephoned her cousin, Tonya Chapman, who also lived in the building. After talking to Chapman, Brunell called the police.
When the police arrived Brunell gave them a description of defendant. She was able to describe defendant's height by pointing to an officer whom she perceived to be of comparable height to defendant. She did likewise in describing defendant's weight. Brunell further described for the officers what defendant was wearing, and told them his nickname and that he had a dark complexion. According to Brunell, on the day of the murder, defendant was wearing "a black long coat, blue jeans, black shoes, a white, kind of light shirt and dark glasses" and was carrying a cane. Additionally, defendant had a scar on the right side of his face "and it met his mouth."
Two days later, while at the home of her aunt, Eddie Cathey, Brunell again spoke with police officers. At that time, the officers showed her several photographs and asked if she recognized any of the persons pictured as the person who had stabbed her mother. Brunell chose defendant's picture.
In 1988, Brunell "picked out C.Q." in a police lineup.
On cross-examination, Brunell testified that she told police that her mother's assailant was about 29 or 30 years old. She also told the investigating officers at the crime scene, and the detectives at the police station at a later date, that her mother's assailant had a scar on his face. She denied telling police that the offender had a slight or skinny build; "all I knew [was] that I pointed to the police officer that looked his weight." Further, she did not recall telling the police that the assailant walked with a limp.
Brunell also testified that she told the officers at the scene that she had seen defendant that morning. However, she did not tell police, until 1988, about her conversation with defendant on the morning of the murder. Neither did she tell them that she had seen defendant on several prior occasions.
Chicago police officers Stephen Stukel and James Gildea arrived at the Donalds' apartment at 5:05 p.m. and 6 p.m., respectively. Officer Stukel noticed that the deadbolt lock on the apartment door was in the locked position. The bolt was down, but the door was open. lighting conditions in the apartment at that time were good; it was daylight and there was a light turned on in the hallway of the apartment.
Two children were in the apartment. Brunell, the older child, appeared calm and Stukel attempted to obtain a description of the offender from her. Brunell gave police a general description of the offender, which facts, on the police report, reflected "male black" and"scars unknown." Because Brunell did not understand numerical weights and heights, Stukel had her give height and weight descriptions by comparing the weight and height of police officers present during the investigation. Brunell additionally gave Stukel the name "C.Q." as the assailant and a "basic clothing description."
Gildea's testimony was substantially the same as Stukel's. On cross-examination, Gildea testified that in his November 5, 1985, supplemental report he described the offender as a black male, 29 to 30 years old, slender build, who walks with a slight limp. Nothing in his report indicated a scar. On redirect examination, Gildea testified that he did not recall whether he had specifically asked Brunell whether the assailant had scars.
Detective Robert Elmore of the Chicago police department testified concerning Brunell's selection of defendant's photograph from a five-picture array two days after the murder. Elmore's interview of Brunell on November 7 also included a description of the offender as a black male, "thin build," "slight limp," without indicating facial scarring.
Elmore also testified that in an interview with Kevin Keith, defendant's roommate, Keith told him that he had sold Yvonne Donald cocaine and that Donald owed Keith $200.
Officer Thomas Reynolds, a crime scene technician, testified that no weapons or fingerprints were recovered from the murder scene.
Dr. Tae An, an assistant medical examiner for Cook County, testified concerning the autopsy performed on Yvonne Donald. It was his testimony that the victim sustained 31 stab wounds and six cutting wounds, and that the cause of death was multiple stab wounds which lacerated internal organs. Over defense counsel's objection, Dr. An further testified to his internal examination of the decedent's genitalia, which revealed that she was five months pregnant.
Kevin Keith, defendant's roommate, testified that he met defendant during the summer of 1985. In early fall of that year, defendant, after being evicted from his apartment, moved in with Keith. Keith recalled that in 1985 defendant had a prominent scar on his face and periodically walked with a cane, although Keith never saw defendant limp.
Keith was acquainted with Yvonne Donald and had visited her apartment on two or three occasions, including once in October 1985 with defendant. He recalled a conversation with defendant in mid-October 1985 in which defendant told Keith that Yvonne Donald owed defendant $200 for cocaine. During that conversation, defendant claimed to have had difficulty collecting the money and said, "I'll kill the b ." Keith denied that Yvonne Donald owed Keith any money.
On November 3, 1985, Keith was arrested for shooting a hole in the wall of his father's home during an argument. Keith remained in the Cook County jail until November 6. On his arrival home from jail, he met defendant, who was on his way out of the apartment. Defendant was carrying a large duffle bag and he indicated to Keith that he was on his way to the laundromat. Although defendant had not spoken of moving out, Keith never saw defendant again. Defendant left his stereo and a few articles of clothing at the apartment.
The next day, when Keith learned that Yvonne Donald had been killed, he made an anonymous telephone call to the police. He told the police dispatcher that he thought he knew who had killed a certain individual. Keith withheld his identity from police because he "was afraid that [he] thought [he] knew who had committed the murder and [he] did not know where that person was."
In a second phone call to police, Keith supplied his name and address and informed police that he thought Cinque Lewis had murdered Yvonne Donald.
In his third telephone call to police, Keith asked officers to pick him up at the Argyle El stop because he wanted to give them information. The police responded and transported Keith to the Area 6 police station. While at the station, Keith told detectives that he believed that defendant murdered Yvonne Donald.
On cross-examination, Keith acknowledged that on November 3, 1985, he was arrested for criminal damage to property and disorderly conduct. He further testified that he had used cocaine, but denied addiction, and that he had never been hospitalized for cocaine dependency. Keith stopped using cocaine in October 1985, and was not using cocaine either on November 3, the day of his disorderly conduct arrest, or on the day he made the three phone calls to police. Keith did not recall, however, whether he had stopped using cocaine before or after hearing defendant make the threat on the decedent's life.
Keith stated that although he had used cocaine and had had some problems with it, he got help for the problem. Following his November 3 arrest, he was given the option of remaining in jail or being evaluated at Lutheran General Hospital for cocaine addiction. After being evaluated, he saw Dr. Sellers, beginning on January 16, 1986, for a bi-polar affect disorder, for which Dr. Sellers prescribed Lithium.
Keith saw Yvonne Donald ingest cocaine and did so with her "maybe once." Contrary to Detective Elmore's testimony, Keith stated that he neither told Elmore that he had sold cocaine to the deceased nor that she owed him $200.
On redirect, Keith testified that although he was diagnosed as a manic depressive, he saw Dr. Sellers for less than a year on a limited number of occasions. His only symptoms were mood swings, which Keith described as "where you would be very, very happy for awhile and then you would be very, very down for awhile." Specifically questioned about symptoms in October and November of 1985, Keith testified that he did not suffer any blackouts or memory loss. Keith was never required to have prolonged psychiatric treatment and he has never been institutionalized for psychiatric care.
Sergeant Paul Carroll of the Chicago police department also testified. According to Carroll, on October 21, 1987, he submitted defendant's fingerprints to the Federal Bureau of Investigation in order to locate any records of defendant in other jurisdictions within the country. The FBI informed Carroll that the fingerprints matched those of a person named Louis James Kirk, who was in custody in California. At Carroll's request, California authorities sent him a photograph of Kirk. Noting a facial scar in both pictures, Carroll determined that the man depicted in the California photograph was the same man as defendant. Extradition proceedings were commenced, and in June 1988, defendant was returned to Chicago from California.
Defendant presented no witnesses at the guilt phase of trial. Following the close of the evidence, the jury returned guilty verdicts on both the armed robbery and the murder charge.
The same jury found defendant eligible for the death penalty based on the presence of two statutory aggravating factors. (See Ill. Rev. Stat. 1985, ch. 38, pars. 9-1(b)(3), (b)(6).) Finding no mitigation sufficient to preclude death, defendant was sentenced to death on the murder conviction and to a term of 30 years in prison on the robbery conviction.
Defendant raises in excess of 25 issues on appeal. We have categorized his claimed errors based upon the stage of the proceedings in which the claimed error occurred.
Defendant asserts that the trial court's refusal to "reverse-Witherspoon" or "life-qualify" prospective jurors constituted a denial of his right to due process. See Morgan v. Illinois (1992), 504 U.S. , 119 L. Ed. 2d 492, 112 S. Ct. 2222; Witherspoon v. Illinois (1968), 391 U.S. 510, 20 L. Ed. 2d 776, 88 S. Ct. 1770.
Prior to trial, defendant tendered several questions to the court designed to bring before the venire a "reverse Witherspoon" inquiry. (See Morgan, 504 U.S. , 119 L. Ed. 2d 492, 112 S. Ct. 2222.) The questions were intended to discover and to cull from the venire those potential jurors who would automatically vote to impose the death penalty. The State, in turn, asked that the jury be "death-qualified" such that any juror who might automatically oppose death could be excused for cause. (See Witherspoon, 391 U.S. 510, 20 L. Ed. 2d 776, 88 S. Ct. 1770.) The court initially reserved ruling on both parties' requests.
In a later ruling on defendant's motion to "life-qualify" the jury, the court expressed its intention to select the jury in its "usual fashion" and to ask both parties' tendered questions "at some point if [the court] felt they were appropriate." The court stated:
" initially I'm going to ask if someone indicates that they have some difficulty with the imposition of a death penalty, I will ask them is your opposition to the extent as such that you would automatically vote against a sentence of death for any person regardless of the facts of the case and other questions I deem appropriate."
During voir dire, the court questioned each potential juror concerning his or her scruples against imposing death. However, the court asked only one juror a "life-qualifying" question. That juror was ultimately excused for cause by the State.
The State does not complain concerning defendant's entitlement to the "reverse-Witherspoon" inquiry. Indeed, that such a right is available to capital defendants is no longer subject to question. (See People v. Johnson (1994), 159 Ill. 2d 97, 130-35, 201 Ill. Dec. 53, 636 N.E.2d 485; People v. Cloutier (1993), 156 Ill. 2d 483, 497-500, 190 Ill. Dec. 744, 622 N.E.2d 774; People v. Smith (1992), 152 Ill. 2d 229, 273-74, 178 Ill. Dec. 335, 604 N.E.2d 858.) Additionally, although at the time of defendant's trial he had no right to a "reverse-Witherspoon" inquiry, Morgan, which was decided during the pendency of defendant's case, applies retroactively to vest defendant with such right. (See People v. Brisbon (1985), 106 Ill. 2d 342, 359-60, 88 Ill. Dec. 87, 478 N.E.2d 402; Cloutier, 156 Ill. 2d at 497-98.) Further, the State makes no suggestion that the substance of defendant's tendered questions are inadequate to "life-qualify" the jury. In that regard, we note their adequacy for that purpose. See Cloutier, 156 Ill. 2d at 499.
The State does argue, however, that the trial court never refused to "life-qualify" the jury. In the State's view, the court merely exercised its discretion in not doing so. The State then urges waiver for defendant's failure to continue to press the issue after the court stated its decision to take defendant's questions under advisement.
We reject the State's argument as disingenuous. The practical effect of the court's "exercise of discretion" is that defendant was denied the right to "life-qualify" the jury, pure and simple. The court's final ruling on the matter was that it would ask the questions if it deemed them appropriate. It apparently never deemed them so. However, Morgan requires that a defendant, upon his request, be afforded the opportunity to inquire into prospective jurors' opinions in support of the death penalty. (Morgan, 504 U.S. at , 119 L. Ed. 2d at 503-06, 112 S. Ct. at 2230-32.) Furthermore, defendant was not required to persist in his demand once the court had announced its decision to proceed in its "usual fashion." We do not find waiver.
Defendant, upon his request, was entitled to a "reverse Witherspoon" inquiry. His request having been denied, his death sentence must be vacated and the cause remanded for a new sentencing hearing. See Johnson, 159 Ill. 2d 97, 201 Ill. Dec. 53, 636 N.E.2d 485; Cloutier, 156 Ill. 2d 483, 190 Ill. Dec. 744, 622 N.E.2d 774; Smith, 152 Ill. 2d 229, 178 Ill. Dec. 335, 604 N.E.2d 858.
Defendant alleges in excess of 11 errors at the guilt phase of trial, the presence of any one, he maintains, entitles him to a new trial.
He initially contends that he was denied a fair trial. In that regard, he first urges reversible error in the trial court's denial of his request for a continuance. Defendant maintains that the continuance was necessitated by the State's late disclosure of psychiatric records of one of the State's key witnesses, Kevin Keith. Denial of the continuance deprived defendant of his right to effective cross-examination and due process. Defendant makes no contention that the State failed during discovery to timely disclose Kevin Keith as a witness.
The record reveals that trial in this matter was scheduled to commence on March 5, 1991. Prior to proceeding with the trial, defendant advised the court that on the preceding day, March 4, 1991, the State learned from Keith and disclosed to defendant that Keith had been hospitalized and had received psychiatric treatment in mid-December 1985. Defendant advised the court that, in light of this evidence, he could not be ready to proceed with trial until March 25, 1991.
The State acknowledged the existence of medical records which reported Keith's 28- to 30-day hospitalization for substance abuse and a diagnosis of him as manic depressive. Further, the State offered that Keith would be willing to testify at trial concerning the hospitalization.
The trial court ordered the medical records produced without ruling upon defendant's motion for continuance.
The following day, the State tendered Keith's medical records. The medical records have not been made a part of this record; however, the trial court noted that the records consisted of notes from Keith's treating physician, Dr. Sellers, two letters from him to a circuit court social worker, dated February 15 and December 9, 1986, and three pathology specimen consultation reports on urine specimens received April 14, 1986, June 30, 1986, and December 3, 1986.
Defendant informed the court that he had received the reports on that morning and that he was not ready to proceed with trial. Defendant asserted that he needed to have a psychiatrist read the reports and to consult with the psychiatrist in order to effectively prepare cross-examination of Keith.
In response, the State offered that Dr. Sellers was available for consultation on that date and could be made available to defendant. Additionally, the State noted that it had drafted a subpoena compelling the doctor's appearance in court on the morning of March 7.
Concerning the medical records, the court stated:
"They are not that long. Basically, it would take a person maybe five minutes to read the whole set of reports here. Basically, Dr. Sellers has maybe a page of handwritten notes that includes his entire report. The relevance of it is a screening sheet that's mostly typewritten. There is some written information in there, but it won't take a person very long to read any of this. Most of it is self-explanatory."
The court acknowledged that defendant was entitled to consult with a doctor of his choice concerning the records. Further, the court allowed that the medical reports could be presented to the jury. However, the court did not see "any real necessity" to delay the proceedings. In so concluding, the court noted that the jury had not yet been picked and defendant, therefore, had time to submit the reports to a doctor of his choice. The court stated, ...

I found this really interesting and I want to share it. It's called the flipped classroom and instead of focusing on students learning in the classroom and then doing homework, it is 'flipped'. The focus is on interacting in the classroom and moving the homework to the classroom, and then have the students learn online through the use of a CMS or LMS.
You can find more information here. It's an interesting concept and one that I semi follow now. I am definitely willing to try this next September!

After a convincing win vs. Colchester United on Saturday in the FA Cup, Tottenham Hotspur will turn their focus back on the Premier League as they host Norwich City on Tuesday at White Hart Lane.
Spurs will be looking to grab three points against the struggling Canaries as they look to push closer to the league leaders Leicester City and separate themselves for West Ham and Manchester United who sit behind them.
Manager Mauricio Pochettino will certainly be starting most of the first team, as anything but three points will be a disappointment.
Hugo Lloris – The French keeper has been superb this season and will be in net again on Tuesday.
Right back: Kyle Walker – Walker hasn't played in the last two matches and should be ready and well rested. The Canaries are going to have there hands full, as Walker is excellent at pushing up and opening up the attack.
Centre-backs: Toby Alderweireld and Kevin Wimmer – Every Spurs' fan is certainly excited, yet a little nervous, to see how Alderweireld and Wimmer play together in the back. Wimmer slots in for Jan Vertoghen as the Belgian went down with mcl injury last week. He's a left-footed centre-back just like Vertoghen and Poch and most Spurs' fans seems very confident that the Austrian will be able to fill in without any problems.
Left Back: Danny Rose – Poch usually been rotating his fullbacks so with Ben Davies playing the last match, we can expect that Rose will get the start.
Centre Defensive Midfield
Eric Dier – Dier should be back in the centre midfield after dropping back to his natural position in the back four last match. Dier slowly is turning into on of the best holding midfielders in the Premier League, and will cause problems for the Canaries midfield. Despite playing heavy minutes this season, he's the best option as both Nabil Bentaleb and Tom Carroll failed to impress last match.
Mousa Dembélé – His rise under Poch this season has been a main reason Spurs are 4th in the table right now. It will be hard for the Canaries to control the midfield going up against both Dembélé and Dier.
Attacking Midfield
Attacking right – Dele Alli – Alli could find himself in an interesting part of the pitch on Tuesday due to Nacer Chadli's recent excellent run of form. With Alli never being deployed on the right side however, Poch could go with the more comfortable choice of Erik Lamela and have Alli come on early in the second half. I'm confident if Poch starts Alli on the right though, that he'll do fine.
Centre Attacking Midfield – Christian Eriksen – Poch could also put Alli right in the middle and push Eriksen out wide, but Spurs have played well recently with the Dane slotting back into the No. 10 role so I believe that's where he'll be on Tuesday.
Attacking Left – Nacer Chadli – Chadli has been in brilliant form recently, scoring four goals and also grabbing two assists in the span of three matches. He'll cool off eventually but Poch should reward him, like he did with Son against Crystal Palce, by starting him on Tuesday. He's certainly deserves it and has earned it.
Harry Kane – Kane will once again be the lone striker up top and will looks to emulate his performance against the Canaries on Boxing day where he netted two goals.
What's your best lineup for Spurs and what do you think the result will be?

2 things every Mississippi State fan needs to know today
Wednesday was a bittersweet day for Mississippi State, as it saw the end of one Bulldog's career and the delayed start of another's. Here's what you need to catch up on the news.
Here are two things to know:
- Linebacker Beniquez Brown announced Wednesday he was leaving Starkville early to declare for the NFL Draft. Brown had a fantastic career for Mississippi State, but the highlight of his time in maroon and white may have come this year, when his late-game blocked kick secured a win for the Bulldogs against Arkansas in one of the most exciting games in recent memory.
- One Mississippi State 2016 commit has decided to enroll in junior college instead of MSU next semester. "Minor Setback 4 A Major Comeback," he tweeted.
Other Mississippi State news from around the Internet
- There were high expectations for Mississippi State this season, and while the Bulldogs certainly played well, 2015 left a bit to be desired. But there's no doubt the end of the year left plenty of hope for next year's team. Here's this season's review and next year's preview (ESPN.com, Sam Khan, Jr.).
- Any way you look at it, the Bulldogs' choice for MVP this season was clear — quarterback Dak Prescott. Sadly, Prescott has played his final game for Mississippi State. Now, coach Dan Mullen has a few options to replace the veteran (ForWhomtheCowbellTolls.com, Ethan Lee).
The best stories around the SEC
- Lebron James-owned marketing firm cuts ties with Johnny Manziel
- What makes this year's Alabama defense unique? DC Kirby Smart has two things in mind

This SS80 DeLuxe (plunger frame) was collected personally from the Brough works, Hayden Road Nottingham on 3rd June 1938 by Capt. G.W Angus, clearly an avid motorcyclist as he owned two other Broughs, his former 11.50 now residing in Jay Leno's collection in the USA.
Little is known of the Capt. but an original buff logbook shows three owners from 1958 to 1960 and then with one owner from 1970 to 1996.
During that time the forks had been replaced from the original Castle units to the Monarch forks now fitted, and the bike now carries engine number BS/X 54475 (originally 4702).
Restored in 2007 by a BS Club member the bike remains in good general order and has had further re commissioning work in our own workshop. It is supplied with a copy of the works record card, various documents regarding the restoration work and the current UK V5C bearing its original registration number of ETV 254.
Mechanically it is a fine running example and is ready to be used. Overall this is a very presentable SS80 with a nice patina and a good history.
1938 Brough Superior SS80 DeLuxe
Chassis Number: M8/1982
Engine Number: BS/X 54475
Mileage: 660
Registration: ETV 254

Driven by their shared passion for electronic music, their love for the nerdy-side of sound-synthesis and the fun they had making music together, early 2012 marked the beginning of the musical cooperation of Kaj Tyszka & Michiel Steennis as Moving Thoughts. Slowly and gradually, filling a live set in order to eventually share their passion with an audience became a goal to work towards for both. Tyszka and Steennis strongly feel that the growth of their passion and dedication to Moving Thoughts is exponentially related to the ongoing process of gaining knowledge in the field of sound-synthesis and mixing techniques, in which they are welcoming support from everyone.
When it comes to the artistic interpretation of their project, both Steennis and Tyszka share a distinctive but like-minded view on the direction Moving Thoughts should start – or maybe say continue – following. In their own words, Moving Thoughts is and will remain to be about music as a means of transmitting feelings and moving people primarily. They also both mention the sheer importance of the 'fun-factor' of music production and friendship, which shapes the solid base their project is built upon.
October 2013 marks the release of their maiden EP dubbed 'Brainfunction EP' on the Rotterdam-based label 'DNA_rec' and their debut in one of Rotterdam's finest clubs, Perron. The laying of the first cornerstone has been done. In May of 2014 released Schizophrenia EP on Modular Expansion records including remixes by Dave Miller, Invite and George Apergis VS Alex Retsis.

Holy huge red-caped monster! Goingbigger – always kicking ass and taking names! Nice work babe!
How much are they charging you to play each month? I am still objecting to paying $50 for a game and then paying $15 a month to play it. Once it gets to under $10 maybe I\'ll consider goinging the fray.
$14.99 i think, pretty cheep entertainment for me since i play alot.

"Love of Country"
Midwest Living, September/October 2012
A new timber frame home in Ohio blends a couple's affection for barn-style design, primitive antiques and laid-back country living.
A collection of primitive antiques-- bird and dog sculptures, woven baskets, quilts and even a dress form wearing an apron--fills this house like a museum (but one that encourages touching). "I buy things that make me smile and feel happy when I look at them," Deb says. She and Ed frequent antique shows such as the Heartland Antique Show and Pure and Simple Show, both in Indiana. The couple's passion for collecting outgrew their home, so they sell some finds at Jeffrey's Antique Gallery in Findlay.
To view a complete photo gallery of this amazing timber frame home visit, Kenton, Ohio Residence.

"Not a drop of dirty Saxon blood in him."
Set in late nineteenth century Ireland, The Real Charlotte is a tale of passion, jealousy and revenge, which revolves around the ambitions of bitter spinster Charlotte Mullen (Jeananne Crowley). When the film begins, Charlotte inherits her aunt's house and a sum of money with the promise that she'll offer help to a young cousin, Francie. While she doesn't relish the task of taking over seventeen-year-old Francie's care, Charlotte keeps her promise. Poverty-stricken Francie, who lives in Dublin with her widowed mother and a house full of siblings, arrives to live with Charlotte.
Francie (Joanna Roth) is young, beautiful, vivacious, and a flirt. Charlotte sets her ambitious eyes on an advantageous match for Francie, and her target is shy Christopher Dysart (Robin Lermitte). The Dysarts are the most powerful, wealthiest family in the area, and with Christopher as the only son, he's set to inherit the family mansion, the title, etc. But Francie doesn't cooperate with Charlotte's plan; she's attracted to a young British officer, Gerald Hawkins (Nicholas Hewetson). There's another man who desires Francie–Roderick Lambert (Patrick Bergin). Although Lambert is married, he adores Francie, and showers her with attention and gifts. Lambert has known Francie since she was a child, and some people are oblivious to the underlying nature of his attentions. But when Charlotte discovers Lambert's true feelings for Francie, she's bitterly jealous, and this sparks a chain of disastrous events.
All the main characters in this drama are duplicitous to one degree or another. Charlotte for example, poses as a friend to several people while she laces these relationships with poisonous remarks. The overview of the class structure with its subtle and not-so-subtle differentiations is very well done. While the Anglo-Irish Dysarts with their British connections are on the top of the human pile, their British visitor considers the Dysarts quaint and unpleasantly eccentric. Charlotte and Lambert fall beneath the Dysarts on the ranking chain, but they are both merciless to anyone who is 'beneath' them socially–and this includes the local peasantry, and Julia Duffy–an Catholic Irishwoman who's most effectively, and legally, disenfranchised.
The servants are portrayed sympathetically, and since they are largely treated like invisible vermin, they are privy to scenes that reveal the true natures of their 'masters.' As for the gentry, well, Sir Benjamin Dysart is indulged and demented, and Charlotte is hated and feared by the Irish peasantry who see her true vicious, grasping nature. The seeds of civil unrest in the country are present and will erupt within a few short years.
The Real Charlotte is a made-for-British television four-part series on a 2 DVD set. If you enjoy costume dramas, or just love British television, then you should enjoy The Real Charlotte based on a novel by Somerville. Unfortunately the ending was a bit abrupt, and this weakened the film. If you enjoy The Real Charlotte I also recommend the DVD Troubles (novel written by J.G Farrell). From director Tony Barry.

I woke up today wishing it were all a dream:
My unanswered prayers and these quiet halls,
Your silent words and this emptied heart.
Where is your hope, did they take your smile?
I close my eyes to see your radiant face,
The one no one has seen in a while.
Come back to us, come back, my friend,
Where did you go? Why did it end?
The laughter of your tender soul,
The loving warmth of your embrace;
Come back to us, come back and stay.
I remember days when the best I had
Was the chance to hear your memories;
I remember nights when I kept hope because I knew
That you were praying for me too.
I remember that the path out of my broken past
Led me straight to you.
Come back to us, come back, dear friend,
Where are you now? Why won't this end?
We miss the laughter of your soul,
We miss your warm embrace;
Come back to us, come back dear friend,
Come be with us to stay.
Sometimes when darkness claims my guiding light,
And life's valleys seem too deep,
I'm reminded of what you once said:
That the father's love for his son
Is one that he will keep.
Come back to us, come back, old friend,
We wait here for you, let's begin again.
We miss your laughter and your joy,
We miss your loving, fatherly embrace;
Come back to us, come back, old friend,
Return to us to stay.

LIFE'S FALLACY, by CHARLES V. H. ROBERTS
First Line: All seeming hollow, all thy joys are naught!
Last Line: With griefs thou weavest alone in heart.
Subject(s): Death; Grief; Sickness; Dead, The; Sorrow; Sadness; Illness
All seeming hollow, all thy joys are naught!
When deem'st thou fortune is within thy hand,
Its golden wings and heralds athwart thy way,
The lowlier bed of sickness yawns for thee:
The House of Death cannot be bought with wealth.
The lamps of honour are pretentious lights,
But darken quickly in the vicious Draught.
Pledge a piastre for the truth of this,
With joys thou hast thy friends in webs,
With griefs thou weavest alone in heart.

Article Content
If you think that all you need to do is just push the shutter button on your digital camera and great pictures magically appear; or the more features and options available in the digital camera, the better the digital photos … then prepare to be disappointed. With these thoughts, you'll get mediocre to average digital photos, and maybe once in awhile a lucky good photographic shot.
The truth is that great photos don't happen by using great cameras, it's you. You create great pictures. With a digital camera, you can make your own digital images look professional with a few basic skills and a willingness to do some digital photo retouching now and then.
Here are seven easy tips to help you take better photographs.
1. Set Your Tones
When shooting nature or wildlife photographs, try changing your white balance setting from auto to cloudy. This adjustment is like putting a mild warming filter on your digital camera. It increases the reds and yellows, resulting in richer and warmer pictures.
2: Polarizing Filter
A polarizing filter is the one filter every photographer should have for landscapes and general outdoor photography. Polarized shots reduce glare and unwanted reflections. The results are richer and more saturated colors in your photos. If your digital camera can't accommodate filters, a neat trick is to take a pair of quality sunglasses, and use them as your polarizing filter. Place the sunglasses as close to the camera lens as possible, check their position in the LCD viewfinder to make sure you don't have the rims in the shot, and get some color-rich digital images.
3. Outdoor Portraits
Set your camera settings to "flash on" mode. This lets the camera expose for the background first, then adds just enough flash to illuminate your portrait subject. The result is a professional looking picture where everything in the composition looks good without the need for digital photo retouching.
4. Macro Mode
Take better close-up and personal digital shots of the small things in your surroundings. On regular or auto digital camera settings, the minimum distance to take decent photos is about 3 feet. If you activate the close up mode on your digital camera you'll be able to get within a foot of your selected object. Begin to explore your world in finer detail, you'll be rewarded with clear images unlike anything you've ever photographed before.
5. Horizon Line
Many times it's hard to hold the digital camera level when using
the LCD screen for viewing, which then results in uneven or crooked images. A great way to square up a photo is to look at nature's horizontal lines and use them as guides. Sometimes you can use the line where the sky meets the ocean, other times you can use a strip of land as your level. This is especially important when you're thinking of enlarging your digital photographs, as the bigger the digital image, the more off balance the image will appear.
6: Digital Camera Memory Card Awareness
Always make sure you set aside a budget for additional digital camera memory cards. The nice thing with digital is that you can take several digital shots of the same scene, making little adjustments with tones, polarizing filters, flash, macro mode, etc. Then delete those digital photos that aren't quite right. You'll need the memory card space to store the extra shots until you review them.
If you have a 3 megapixel camera, get at least a 256 megabyte card, a 512 megabyte memory card if you own a 4 megapixel model, and 1 gigabyte for 6 megapixel models.
7: High Resolution All the time
Select the highest resolution possible when taking digital photos. High resolution digital images give you more freedom to edit, crop and/or manipulate the image in any way you want without losing the quality. It's easy to reduce the size of the digital photo once you've transferred it to your computer. It's not advisable to enlarge the digital photo because you can't add the depth of pixel color back into the digitized image. Unless you're only taking photographs to e-mail to friends, you'll want to have a high resolution image to edit and print.
For any of these tips, the best advice is to practice them. You'll become familiar with the new techniques and along the way, learn more about your digital camera's capabilities and settings. Those great photographs that you'll want to share and display are just a few practice steps away.

1. Compare and contrast Emerson's poem "The Snow-Storm" with Emily Dickinson's poem "It Sifts from Leaden Sieves." In what ways are their depictions of the snowstorms similar and different? How do the differences affect the mood of each piece?
Answer: The poems "The Snow Storm" and "It Sifts from Leaden Sieves" are alike because they are both describing snow falling and the things the snow covers and how it covers it. The poems are different because Emerson never actually mentions snow but the way he words his poem you know exactly what he's talking about. Emily Dickenson directly mentions snow so you know right from the start what she is talking about.

2. Choose a poem from Whitman, and explain how it reveals Romantic thinking. Cite examples from the poem as your support.
Answer: I chose "To a Stranger" by Whitman. It reveals romantic thinking because he writes, "you must be he I was seeking, or she I was seeking, (it comes to me as of a dream,)." He describes this like he was looking to find someone he had seen in a dream before. "I have somewhere surely lived a life of joy with you", he says. Its sort of like he is describing a déjà vu. Like he feels like he had live a life of joy and happiness with a person but is not really sure of it.

I knew "Kosinski" and still have an admiration for "Nekrovitch."
And at last one evening Nekrovitch announced that Kosinski was expected.
The evening advanced, and I began to despair of Kosinski's ever arriving.
I met Kosinski, and he has promised to give us a hand with the move.
Kosinski was set to stowing away the literature in packing-cases.
"Oh, we have had nothing but mishaps and adventures all night," returned Kosinski.
You and Kosinski are the only two persons whom I regret in leaving London.
"Oh, there is no fear of that," answered Kosinski with assurance.
Kosinski stepped forward, but she waved him off and looked at me.
Kosinski is leaving, Giannoli is gone, Armitage is otherwise occupied.

About Me
Hi, I'm Margaret Smith, I live in Fort Worth, Texas, and I am addicted to sewing! Actually, I am addicted DIY projects, crafting and sewing but spending the day sewing is my primary fix!
I grew up with a mom that was a professional tailor and encouraged me to be creative. I can't remember a time when she sat down and officially taught me to sew. It really was just part of what we did routinely. I can remember being very young and sitting on her lap while she sewed. She taught me early to pull out the pins before she came to them. Remember, we never sew over pins!
I had a scrap basket of fabric I could play in and I was taught which scissors were for fabric and which were for paper and patterns. At some point, I don't remember how old I was, I was allowed to use her machines on my own with permission.
Fast-forward about 20 some years and I was a young mom wanting to sew for my kids. That's when I got my first machine that was all mine! That machine was quickly joined by a serger. I wanted to make sure my creations looked professional so I began taking classes, reading books and asking my mom and other professionals for guidance.
I began teaching others to sew, including my children, and then in 2005 I opened my own business selling the items I was making.

hey everyone. well, i thought i would enter another entry, hopefully it is something that brightens up your mind on these gloomy, cold days here in minnesota. today was my first day of classes for the week, and overall it was pretty good. nothing too hectic, pretty relaxed day. i put up an ad the other day on craigslist as a bassist looking for an alternative band, and today i received a call. the call was from a guitarist who plays in a group called Vaudeville. they are local, but really have a good reputation. they have recorded quite a few albums (check iTunes) and recorded in Nashville. they also have played with bands such as forever the sickest kids, meat puppets, and we the kings. they have a really good sound, lead singer chris has a strong but not too over-powering voice. they do a good RATM cover (killing in the name of) and a great "rendition" of Closer by NIN. when i saw they did some NIN, i was pretty much hooked. i would compare them to have a broad range of sound, everything from NIN to Muse. i have a bass audition thursday in minneapolis and am so fucking excited i can't stand myself. i might add a second bass to my setup, and today on craigslist (so helpful) i found a Fender Aerodyne jazz bass for $350. that bass normally runs at $800 new. great deal in my opinion. so that is a little of what is going on. i am kind of sad, mainly because i am not going to be spending a night in new richmond. i am use to being there on school nights, but i should probably sleep in the place i am paying to live at. haha sounds funny when you see it staring back at you on a computer screen. anyways, i want to start something on this blog and that is a "song of the entry". i will post a song i think you guys should check out, and if it doesn't fit your mood just turn it off. that is all i have for this entry. take care
just a small look inside the mind of another city kid.

I did end up with the day off, kind of. I went to talk to a local principal. No luck there, bummer.
So, to cheer myself up, I took a few minutes to give Lady a good scrubbing. As you can see she really needs it.
I used a ton of whitening shampoo on her.
I was worried, at first that Sergeant would charge Lady because she was tied (a favorite thing for him to do) But Foxy and Belle stayed close, so he didn't dare.
She didn't get perfectly spotless because I had to give her time to dry during the hottest part of the day and her white is going to take time to bleach out the stains from winter. So I let her loose to get even more dirty. She ran over to pick on Foxy.
What a little stinker.
FINALLY! A new post...

Join Henry County Health Center's Emergency Department and the Iowa Donor Network as they team up to host an event in April for National Donate Life Month. On Wednesday, April 5, two programs will be held at 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. in HCHC's Health Education Center. The Brockway family will talk about how the tragic death of their 10 year old son gave promise to more than 120 people across the U.S. and Canada with his gifts of organ, cornea and tissue. This program is free to the public, and everyone is encouraged to attend one of the two sessions.
Even though 130 million people in the United States have registered as organ donors, there is still a great need for donors as 118,463 people are waiting for an organ. The month of April, designated as National Donate Life Month, is the ideal time to learn more about organ donation.
National Donate Life Month (NDLM) was instituted by Donate Life America and its partnering organizations in 2003. Celebrated in April each year, NDLM features an entire month of local, regional and national activities to help encourage Americans to register as organ, eye and tissue donors and to celebrate those who have saved lives through the gift of donation.
In addition to the April 5th presentations, be sure to check out HCHC's Facebook page throughout April at www.facebook.com/henrycountyhealthcenter for more information on organ donation.

It a personal thing, but the hair on her arms detracts from the sharp impact of the image for me.
I do like the lighting side/behind her and in front.
Quote:Actually this is body paint, and the nails/lips are suppose to be about the same color...
I agree on the hair!!
However you did it, it's still clever! And you must be a better man than me, or had the camera on a tripod, because if you presented me with a naked silver lady wearing that hat I would have been shaking with laughter! Well done to the model for keeping a straight face too, must be a professional!!
I was suppose to do this on location, but that fell through at the last moment, leaving me with my studio.
Pro? Yes she is semi-pro and even if one works with nude Lovely women, there is not an ounze of non-professional in me
Thanks for your thoughts!!

Being a bridesmaid might seem easy, but there's more to it than you think. You have to buy and get fitted for an expensive dress, cater to your best friend's every whim, and help ensure that everything goes smoothly on her special day.
And of course, not everything always goes as planned.
That's what one bridesmaid found out when she saw something terrible happening on her sister's big day. But before things took a turn for the worse, she didn't hesitate to jump in and help.
Hannah West and Mark Jefferies were getting married at Dumbleton Hall in Stroud, England.
Everything was going well as the wedding party posed for photos when suddenly, they heard a terrible sound.
It turned out that a black swan had taken a baby gosling from his parents, and was trying to drown the poor baby.
Without hesitation, the bride's sister, Faye, kicked her shoes off and walked into the pond to scare the swan away.
Everyone cheered as Faye brought the gosling back to his family, even as her dress got soaked.
The geese thanked Faye by squawking with glee, and the rest of the wedding went off without a hitch.
"Our wedding was everything we wanted and more," said Hannah. "Faye saving the gosling was just the cherry on top of our day, and [it's] something we will look back on and laugh for years to come." What a way to start your life together!

United States District Court, S.D. New York
October 14, 2014
ALEXANDRA CONTRERAS, Plaintiff,v.COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY, Defendant.
JESSE M. FURMAN, District Judge.
The Court referred this appeal from the Commissioner of Social Security's denial of disability benefits to Magistrate Judge Sarah Netburn for a Report and Recommendation. (Docket No. 9). On March 17, 2014, the Commissioner moved for judgment on the pleadings. (Docket No. 18). In a Report and Recommendation filed on September 12, 2014, Magistrate Judge Netburn recommended that the Commissioner's motion be granted. (Docket No. 22).
In reviewing a Report and Recommendation, a district court "may accept, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the findings or recommendations made by the magistrate judge." 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(C). A district court "must determine de novo any part of the magistrate judge's disposition that has been properly objected to." Fed.R.Civ.P. 72(b)(3); see also United States v. Male Juvenile, 121 F.3d 34, 38 (2d Cir. 1997). To accept those portions of the report to which no timely objection has been made, however, a district court need only satisfy itself that there is no clear error on the face of the record. See, e.g., Wilds v. United Parcel Serv., 262 F.Supp.2d 163, 169 (S.D.N.Y. 2003). This clearly erroneous standard also applies when a party makes only conclusory or general objections, or simply reiterates his original arguments. See, e.g., Ortiz v. Barkley, 558 F.Supp.2d 444, 451 (S.D.N.Y. 2008).
In the present case, the Report and Recommendation advised the parties that they had 14 days from service of the Report and Recommendation to file any objections, and warned that failure to timely file such objections would result in waiver of any right to object or to appeal the judgment. (Docket No. 22, at 26-27). In addition, it expressly called Plaintiff's attention to Rules 72, 6(a), and 6(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and Title 28, United States Code, Section 636(b)(1). See Caidor v. Onondaga Cnty., 517 F.3d 601, 604 (2d Cir. 2008) (even a pro se Plaintiff waives the right to appellate review by not timely objecting to a report and recommendation, provided that the Magistrate Judge warned Plaintiff and cited the appropriate provisions of the Federal Rules and Title 28). Nevertheless, as of the date of this Order, no objections have been filed and no request for an extension of time to object has been made. Accordingly, Plaintiff has waived the right to object to the Report and Recommendation or to obtain appellate review. See id.; Frank v. Johnson, 968 F.2d 298, 300 (2d Cir. 1992).
Despite the waiver, the Court has reviewed the Report and Recommendation, unguided by objections, and finds the Report and Recommendation to be well reasoned and grounded in fact and law. Accordingly, the Report and Recommendation is adopted in its entirety and the Commissioner's motion for judgment on the pleadings is GRANTED.
The Clerk of the Court is directed to close the case and to mail Plaintiff ...

Today I am a mother of a twenty-one year old. That feels so strange to type out, even though I have known it was coming. And fast.
I think back at the days before he made the choice to go into the Marines and the tension in the house was enough to choke on. There were days when I was ready to ask Kevin to take this kid out of my house because I wanted to throttle him. So many times it was Kevin's advice and clear-headed thinking that got us through those times. I never did have my son go stay with someone else, and I think it was the knowledge that I could, if it got too bad.
Don't get me wrong, there were other days when we'd be awake long into the night talking about philosophy, religion, politics, life, and more. There were days when the laughter rang out through the house and filled it with sunshine. Those, truly, are the days I focus on the most.
Do I think he's now a man simply because he reached an age? No. Quite simply, my son took many steps to becoming a man. One of the most significant ones was in early December, 2009. This crazy-haired kid with the chains on his pants asked me to sign the papers giving him permission to join the Corps before his birthday. Even with all of the fears I had, with all the doubts, I knew, above all else, that I was proud of this young man.
Do I still think about the little boy that he once was? Of course! There is no way not to. But mostly I think about the future that is filled with possibilities for this wonderful young man. And I smile, even through the bittersweet tears of my heart.

The frenemy: Six red flags that your friend may also be your enemy
At some point in our lives, most of us will have a friend, or even a best friend, who we later realise is toxic and doesn't bring much 'friend' to the word friendship. These are the frenemy types to watch out for and beware – because they suck.
The puppeteer
If you know someone like Regina George from Mean Girls, our condolences. She acts like she's superior to the plastics and gives a threatening vibe to cut off anyone who stands in her way, when really it should be vice versa. This type of frenemy is more obvious and intense rather than subtle and two-faced.
If there is anyone like this in your life (even if they aren't a friend) just steer clear! Just because someone might seem like they have all the control, that doesn't make them a great person. Because at the end of the day you'll be all like "(Insert name here) is not sweet! She's a scum-sucking road whore, she ruined my life!" The worst is when they're actually a funny person but as soon as the joke is on you, you feel like absolute trash.
The master of manipulation
Realising a friend may be manipulating you is a tricky one, because you usually don't realise until a while afterwards, making it easy for you to fall into their trap again and again and again. It's the sneakiest form of frenemy where they play with your mind and emotions. It's usually the person in a group of friends who is the 'leader' and everyone in that group looks up to them or needs their approval, which is all a part of their various hidden agendas. Sometimes all they need to do is say one small, ambiguous thing and it will stay with you.
The selfish friend
We probably all have that one friend that only thinks of themselves and doesn't care about the sort of damage it could leave on you or anyone else. It's that friend that says "Yeah, let's meet up Friday night for drinks," but then says they have to cancel – then, Friday night comes around and their Snapchat story is them clubbing with a big group of mates. They always take the 'better option'. Friends like these may seem like they have good intentions and a good heart every time they have to explain their actions, but do they really?
The unsupportive
They can actually suck. When suddenly you get a new job or you need to study for a major exam that's on Monday, all they do is get pissy with you, whinge about 'how you're changing' and throw hissy fits when you can't see them twice in one day. Maybe it's another form of selfishness? This type of frenemy sounds like what could be an annoying best friend because they love you and want to spend all their time with you – however, when it gets out of hand, it ain't cool.
The hot and cold friendship
The perfect (but perhaps extreme) example is Serena and Blair's friendship in Gossip Girl. Serena has sex with Blair's boyfriend, Blair reveals scandalous material about Serena. Serena tries to steal Blair's place at the college of her dreams, Blair goes out with Serena's ex. Their 'worst friendship moments' list could go on and on, but so could their best moments. That's why this red flag is a tough one – when you go through the very worst with a friend but also the very best, it's hard to let go or have space when it feels like they're your second half. If it's a friendship worth fighting for – try having a strong D&M and set ground rules, otherwise the pattern will forever continue.
Know your boundaries, know who you actually enjoy spending time with and know those who makes you feel like a superstar! The rest can go in the trash just like your year 12 textbooks did.
