DFF is in the process of establishing relationships with organizations that offer or administer accreditation for dance programs in the USA across a broad range of dance styles. While DFF will not act as an accrediting body, we hope to provide comprehensive list of those that do in the near future. Please check our website for updates and information on how your dance school, studio, university, or dance institution can become accredited.
No. Only invited institutions may nominate students to apply for scholarships.
Unfortunately not. Students must be at least 15 years old and must be nominated by an accredited or nationally recognized dance school or institution in the United States where they currently study. Individuals can not nominate themselves or others for a scholarship with DFF.
All nominations must be completed by a teacher or faculty member at the nominating dance school, studio, university, or dance institution. As all scholarships are paid directly to the institution where the recipient is enrolled, DFF works with them directly in order to maintain clear lines of communication and reporting.
Students are asked to provide any necessary supporting documents directly to their nominating teacher/professor who will submit their nomination via DFF's online application.

We know that school budgets are suffering under the current economy and that Arts programing is often in short supply for schools/districts. Provided that each school/district meets the eligibility criteria outlined above and is able to offer dance programing that satisfies DFF's requirements, it is welcome to apply.

That said, I've gotten a lot of requests for app advice for iPad/iPhone. So, like the faithful little blogger I am, I've collected some of the best the App Store has to offer...starting with some of my favorites.
1. iWedding Deluxe-The Wedding Planner: From Serendipity App Company, this is the most comprehensive wedding app I've seen. It's got the basics like: seating arrangement, budgeting info, contact information, and venue information. However, in what I think is a HUGE bonus, it's chock full of extras that can help you locate local vendors, manage guest list info and store inspirational photos. For me, the icing on the cake is the countdown feature that allows you to stay on track as the big day approaches. At $5.99, the thing is basically a steal.
2. Plan Your Wedding with Mindy Weiss: This app comes to us from one of the coolest chicks in the biz. Mindy Weiss is one of the most sought after wedding planners and lifestyle experts evah. She's been planning amazing events for all our favorite A-listers, including Ellen DeGeneres, Gwen Stefani, and Heidi Klum. Without sacrificing utility (you know, guests, vendors and budgets) this app puts the user in touch with the latest in wedding trends, including videos from Mindy herself. For me this app is a little frillier and has a decidedly celeb-centric feel, but it's perfect for the dreamier among us. You can find this on the App Store for a cool $7.99. I think it's more than worth it for everything it does.
4. WeddingScan: This Organi Studios app is new to me, but as soon as I saw it, I was a big fan. Basically, WeddingScan creates a custom registry by allowing couples to scan any item's barcode in any store. The app uploads all the product information to the couple's WeddingScan.com registry. No barcode? No problem. The app also allows you to take pictures and include descriptions. Your guests then go to the website to purchase. Multiple stores, one registry, one place for guests. Easy peasy. Currently, this app comes in at $2.99.
6. Evernote: Can I just say how ding dang much I LOVE Evernote. I just can't believe it's free! I was skeptical at first as I am of anything that promises to be my organizational savior, but this really is the shizz, so take a big whiff. The website sums it up better than I ever could: "Capture anything. Access anywhere. Find things fast.". Pretty brill, wouldn't you say!
7. Pinterest: I really didn't think I could get away without mentioning Pinterest. To be honest with you, I feel like I waited my whole life for Pinterest and now that I have it, I'll never let it go. That's how fabulous it is. By creating virtual pinboards, users can "pin" and organize inspirational photos. The app (available for both iOS and Android) expands on this idea by incorporating your phone's camera. Snap the things you love for your wedding and upload them to your board. BRILL. I find Pinterest most useful when trying to edit myself. I am an artist at heart, so it's easy for me to get bogged down in the concept. Pinterest allows me to cut through the bullshet and get to the point.
There you have it. Seven of my favorites. Feel free to add to this list in the comments.

Buying a new mattress can enable thousands of nights of restful, rejuvenating sleep. On the other hand, it can also just as easily lead to frustration and regret. Thinking intently about a mattress that might initially seem like an excellent candidate will always be advisable. Fortunately, there are now a variety of resources online that shoppers can use to help make the purchasing process easier.
A Couple of Basic Factors Contribute Most to Mattress Buying Satisfaction
Every mattress serves the simple but important purpose of providing enough comfort and support to make falling and staying asleep easy and pleasant. In practice, there are only a few very basic issues that end up contributing to the successfulness of particular mattresses for given owners. Some of the issues that it will always be wise to take into account when considering various mattresses include:
- Firmness. From pillowy, cloud-like mattresses to far firmer ones, mattresses range quite widely in terms of their overall feel. Generally speaking, people who incline toward sleeping on their backs will want to choose firmer mattresses than those who opt for other positions. At the same time, personal preferences always need to be taken into account, as well, as do details like weight and overall body type. Fortunately, most people will find that a mattress that lines up somewhere near the middle of the firmness scale will suit their situations well.
- Support. The way that a mattress feels, in general, does not always correlate precisely with how much support it actually provides. A mattress with an especially cushy top layer might feel fairly soft but actually provide a great deal of support once it is deformed beyond certain limits. As a result, most manufacturers will characterize their products with regard to both the subjective feeling of firmness and the objective, measurable level of support. Just about everyone will want a mattress that ranks fairly high in the latter respect, with particular issues like chronic back problems making this even more important.
The Right Mattress for Any Home and Buyer
Simply thinking specifically about issues like these will make it much easier to choose an especially appropriate mattress. In many cases, it will become quite clear early on that certain models stand out in these respects above others.

text: DigitalGawker and New York Times Writers Get Together for 'Page One' Screening PartyBy Ujala Sehgal|May 27, 2011 ShareBy Ujala Sehgal|May 27, 2011 Share Gawker Media and Magnolia Pictures plan to hold a private screening of "Page One," the documentary on the New York Times, Adweek reports. The screening will be on the rooftop of Gawker's Manhattan office, and will be followed by a panel featuring the filmmaker Andrew Rossi, as well as The Atlantic's Michael Hirschorn, Gizmodo's Brian Lam, and the two stars of the film: Times media writers David Carr and Brian Stelter.What's curious about this crowd is that Gawker, along with The Huffington Post and WikiLeaks, is portrayed in the film as a threat to the Times, particularly with regard to Gawker head Nick Denton's page view obsession. And the same goes for The Atlantic's Hirshhorn: his essay "End Times: Can America's paper of record survive the death of newsprint? Can journalism?" is also featured in the film.Glad all of these major media factions could put their differences aside and come together for what is sure to be a fascinating panel on the state of journalism. Too bad Julian Assange and Arianna Huffington aren't making appearances as well. FishbowlNY editors have likewise not been asked to appear, but we're sure that's just a temporary oversight on their part. Sharehttp://adweek.it/2jIXvTK copy Adweek Adweek

That's why when I had the boys, I didn't even think twice about cloth diapering them. I had flat folds by Gerber, and which I requested my aunt in the US to buy for me. Turns out that the diapers sold here in the major malls are a poly cotton blend which made them not as quick absorbing as pure cotton ones (yep, my home cotton shirts sopped up the pee of the boys faster than their diapers would! Horrors!)
Here is a picture of K in his flat folds, at around 3 or so months.
I wish I had Snappis but I didn't. We used those clips that had "teeth" to clasp the diaper properly as opposed to those huge diaper pins.
Later on we developed our own diapers, which we initially called Tushy Wushy! Here are a few prototypes K used:
K used the prototypes and we began selling them as well, waaaaay back in 2005 or so. In 2011, we made a strategic decision to use the Next9 brand to carry all our products, thus renaming this to "Next9 Cloth Diapers" and improving them. Today, they're adjustable (it can be used from birth all the way up to approximately 30 lbs -- depending on thighs and belly!), the fleece is better, the inserts made of microfiber.
Check them out!
And really, these diapers aren't very different from the ones we used to wear when we were kids. In fact, these are simpler than the flat folds! Which led us to our tagline "Comfort of cloth, Performance of disposables!"
Very recently, the use of cloth diapers have been increasing by leaps and bounds! And since I don't have babies in diapers anymore, I was so happy to have received this Christmas gift from my new BFF Jenny over at Chronicles of a Nursing Mom!
There is so much to learn out there! Jenny is running a giveaway for this book. Check it out here.
And because this week is Real Nappy Week, several activities have been lined up! Some stores are on sale to celebrate! Check ours out HERE. And on Saturday, the 21st of April 2012, we have a CD101 (cloth diapering 101) talk! Do come and join us! Check this page to sign up!
So join us as we celebrate Real Nappy Week, Mother Earth will thank you! (And so will your babies' tussles!)

The Foxes were Guarding the Hen House
Client: Skin Care Company with Offices Worldwide
Case Type: Product Theft
Case Background: The client is suffering a substantial loss of revenue as a result of large amounts of beauty products disappearing from the company's warehouse. So far, they have been unable to ascertain who is stealing from them
Purpose of Investigation: SEAL Security Investigative Division was retained to identify those responsible, determine how widespread the theft is and develop a prosecutable case.
Case Development: SEAL Security Investigative Division determined that the most cost-effective and efficient course of action for the client would be a round-the-clock surveillance focusing on the company parking lot where all employees eventually enter and exit.
The Findings: Over the course of a few short weeks, the hour-by-hour surveillance paid off as a total of four late-shift security guards were observed removing boxes and bags of merchandise at different times and stashing them in the trunks of their cars. The guards would watch each others backs as they were stealing the client blind.
Our surveillance found that the thieves had accumulated so much merchandise that they rented a storage unit when their homes became filled to capacity with stolen skin care products. And what were they doing with all this merchandise? Our investigation established that the team of thieves were shipping their cache to Chile to sell for huge profits.
Result: SEAL Security Investigative Division not only documented a solid prosecutable case to present to law enforcement but, just as importantly, were instrumental in recovering several hundred thousand dollars in stolen merchandise for the client!

The Problem
You wake-up with a dry throat and mouth after using your PAP device with a nasal cushion or nasal pillow mask. The humidifier is turned up all the way and you can breathe clearly through your nose.
The Solution
A good fix for this problem would be to try a chinstrap. Sometimes at night when you hit REM sleep your muscles relax, causing your jaw to drop. A chinstrap can prevent that from happening and eliminate your dry mouth and throat in the morning.
If you find the chinstrap is not enough, you might want to consult with your Sleep Care Specialist about moving to a full face mask.
We hope you found this information helpful. Check back next month for a new PAP therapy tip.

Silas Simmons
This article includes a list of references, related reading or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (January 2015) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
|Silas Simmons
Simmons in 1913
|Pitcher / Outfielder
|Born: October 14, 1895 (allegedly)
Middletown, Delaware
|Died: October 29, 2006
St. Petersburg, Florida
|1913, for the Homestead Grays
|Last appearance
|1929, for the Cuban Stars
Silas Joseph "Si" Simmons (October 14, 1895? – October 29, 2006) was an American semi-professional and professional baseball player for African-American teams in the pre-Negro League era, and became the longest-lived professional baseball player in history. The previous record was held by Red Hoff, who died at age 107 in 1998.
Simmons was born in Middletown, Delaware. He was a five-foot-ten, left-handed pitcher/outfielder, and began playing for the Germantown Blue Ribbons, a semi-pro team, in 1911. In 1913, the Blue Ribbons became a professional team and were renamed the Homestead Grays, a team that quickly became a Negro League powerhouse.
As late as 1926, Simmons pitched for the New York Lincoln Giants of the Eastern Colored League and appeared in at least one game in 1929 for the New York-based Cuban Stars (East) of the Negro National League. During his career, Simmons played on the same team as Hall of Famer Pop Lloyd and against Hall of Famers Judy Johnson and Biz Mackey. Simmons ended his baseball career soon after 1929.
Simmons was married at Philadelphia by Rev. John L. Lee on September 15, 1915 to Mary L. "Mamie" Smith (July 19, 1896 – ca. 1944). He and his wife Mary had five children and settled into life as a porter. He later became an assistant manager at Rosenbaum's Department Store in Plainfield, New Jersey. After 29 years of marriage Mamie died ca. 1944. In 1957 Simmons married his second wife, Rebecca Jones (1901 – August 20, 1997). In 1971, he retired to St. Petersburg, Florida, where he lived for the rest of his days. After 40 years of marriage, Rebecca died at the age of 96 in 1997. Simmons lived to be at least 108, and outlived all five of his children. At the time of his death Simmons had nine grandchildren, several great-grandchildren, and many great-great grandchildren.
In the fall of 2005, baseball history buff and genealogist David Allen Lambert of the New England Historic Genealogical Society rediscovered Simmons. Lambert alerted fellow baseball historians associated with the Negro Leagues, who proceeded to interview this link to early baseball. In May 2006, Dr. Layton Revel — founder of Texas-based Center for Negro League Baseball Research — met and interviewed Simmons. He also organized the 111th birthday celebration for him, in 2006. It included around 30 former Negro League players from around Florida. A plaque was presented to Silas on his birthday on behalf of the Society for American Baseball Research by Lambert. He was also presented a team jersey with number "111" from the Tampa Bay Devil Rays.
Simmons died 15 days later at the Westminster Suncoast Nursing Home in St. Petersburg.
Age issue[edit]
Simmons listed his birthdate as October 14, 1895. This is supported by his World War I draft registration card. Silas was married in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania September 15, 1915; on this record of marriage, he signs his name and gives his birthdate as October 14, 1893. The 1900 census lists Silas as having been born in November 1897, which would make him 108 years old at the time of his death.
However, the ages in the U.S. Census were often incorrectly recorded;[citation needed] a neighbor could easily have given the information if the resident was not home. Silas' mother, Amy, is listed as having been born in 1882, which suggests she gave birth at age 15 (if in 1897) or age 13 (if in 1895). Ages in draft registration cards have also been wrong (for Moses Hardy it lists him as born June 5, 1894). Even if Simmons were only 108 at his death, he still would have been older than Chet Hoff, and thus the longest-lived person to have ever played professional baseball.
Simmons is also one of the two known professional athletes to have been born in the 19th century and died in the 21st century, the other being Karl Swanson (1900-2002).

In the aftermath of the Great Famine of 1845-52, the Martin Estate in the West of Ireland, 200, 000-acres of bog and mountain, was put up for sale. Its mortgagees, the London Law Life Insurance Society, evicted many of the tenants, and in February 1853 sent Thomas Colville Scott to conduct a survey of their property. This is his journal, recently discovered at an auction-house in England. Colville Scott records many an extraordinary encounter with individual survivors of the famine, some traumatized into idiocy, others mysteriously bettering themselves on well-nigh invisible means. The descriptions of squalid hostelries, rent-evading tenants, thieving beggars and the works of 'Papistry' are those of a cocksure Scots metropolitan - and his account of a meeting of the Clifden Workhouse Guardians is as brutally comic as Thackeray - but his dealings with human flotsam such as the tiny chimneysweep running naked through the snow shows a warm-heartedness that makes this journal as moving as it is richly informative. Drawings by the author and sketches from contemporary guidebooks illustrate the text. Tim Robinson's introductory essay locates Colville Scott's responses within the frame of Connemara history and the nineteenth century. His annotations and map detailing the Martin Estate enable the reader to follow, day by day, the young surveyor on his exploration of 'this inhabited desolation, Connemara after the Famine'.

The members of the UN Security Council have urged the Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon, to swiftly take appropriate steps to enhance the safety of personnel of the UN Multidimensional Integrated Stabilisation Mission in Mali (MINUSMA).
The call was in a statement issued by the 15-member body on Saturday in New York.
In the statement, the Council condemned in the strongest terms, attacks on MINUSMA camp in Kidal, Mali, which occurred on Saturday with one Chadian peacekeeper was killed and others injured.
The members of the Security Council called on member states to enhance their support to MINUSMA in this regard, including providing technical expertise and logistic support needed.
They reiterated their support for the Special Representative of the Secretary-General in Mali and MINUSMA.
The Council said the call was to assist the Malian authorities and the Malian people in their efforts to bring lasting peace and stability to their country.
The Council also urged the Malian parties to reach a comprehensive and inclusive peace agreement without delay to help restore security in Mali.
They expressed their deepest condolences to the family of the peacekeeper killed, as well as to the government and people of Chad and to MINUSMA.
The Council also paid tribute to the Chadian peacekeepers for their sacrifices and continued efforts in MINUSMA and called on the government of Mali to investigate the attacks.
The Security Council said the attacks targeting peacekeepers may constitute war crimes under international law.
The Council members reiterated their full support to MINUSMA and French forces that support it.
In a related development, Secretary-General, Ban Ki-Moon, strongly condemned the attack.
Mr. Ki-Moon in a statement issued by his spokesperson, Stephane DuJarric, said the incident followed other attacks against UN personnel and contractors in the Kidal and Gao Regions.
These include rocket attacks against MINUSMA camps and attacks against vehicles using mines and improvised explosive devices.
"These attacks will not alter the determination of the UN support to the Malian people in its search for peace.
"This latest attack only highlights the urgency of reaching a political settlement to end the conflict and enable the full restoration of state authority across the entire Malian territory," he said.
Mr. Ki-Moon expressed his sincere condolences to the family of the peacekeeper who was killed and his sympathies to the government and people of Chad, and wished those injured speedy recovery.

PL3G Fundraising
Hello everyone and welcome to a new season.
After a successful couple of years tidying up administrative functions the club has decided to look at acquiring our own all weather surface at Platt Lane.
To get the help of the FA and our local partners the club needs to embark on a fundraising campaign similar to the one that enabled us to build the clubhouse to show we are a community and a cohesive group.
Can it be done?
Last time the answer was yes.
This time with a new committee, new and older members and new ideas coupled with some tried and tested ones with your help I'm sure we can do it again
You will see some improvements in the club house. We've got faster free Wi-Fi, wider drinks range at the bar as well as different food being served on match days.
BT sports is on and our licensed opening hours have increased.
Saturday afternoons will be open so that the community can enjoy watching the football results come in in a sports bar atmosphere.
There will also be a small range of merchandising available to buy at pocket money prices to show yours and your families support for the club.
All this and more has been done to encourage you and the wider community to use Platt Lane. Every penny spent there goes to running the club and everything not used in doing so will now go into the PL3G fund to be run by Lucy Shears and Paula Goodband.

Our first night in Bacolod was spent at the Grand Regal Hotel not because we planned to stay there but more to the fact that we were left without a choice after the vans at the airport going to the city have all vanished by the time we went out of the building.
We were told that the next batch wouldn't be back 'til the next scheduled flight from Manila arrived. So it was with good fortune that we saw Grand Regal's service van parked outside waiting for a passenger. We asked if we can hitch a ride and inquired about their hotel too. Their rates looked good (discounted at Php999.00 for the standard rooms), so were their rooms.
We were sold; free transfer to Bacolod city plus good and affordable accommodations.
We entered their posh lobby less than an hour after leaving the airport. We filled out the necessary paperwork and proceeded to their rooms. Everything looked exactly as advertised on their pamphlets, which was excellent.
The room was sizeable, well furnished and clean. TV was with cable and working well. The lights were perfect too, complete with onboard controls near the bed. Service was very efficient, prompt and courteous.
It was almost perfect except for the view outside the window, which connected directly to a roof deck that any utility man can peep through (which of course nobody did, I was just paranoid) and the existence of a door adjacent to the bed that connects to the next room (the next guest room that is, so if you're planning any sort of hanky panky, better tone your noise down a little).
The hotel was located at Araneta Avenue, in front of the huge Gaisano mall and some blocks away from Lacson Street. The location was okay but it was always two rides away from where the action was in Bacolod. If not for this, we would have completely stayed here instead of transferring to the easier location of the Bacolod Business Inn along Lacson street.

Oh my god I don't feel so guilty now I thought I had a lot of products on the go.
I wish I was one of those people who could just use one product at a time but I am always chopping and changing.
Thank you for all your comments about our first 'At Home with Alison' video, I'm really pleased you loved it.
I spent the whole day at Ali's house and there are more videos to come including her horses and her career.
But right now it's time to take a peek at something I know you'll be interested in – her bathroom…
[Having trouble viewing this video? See YouTube's Help page]
In the video you got a sneaky peek at Lulu's Today's Special Value coming up on Thursday the 12th of July. Ali also mentioned one of her shower essentials, the Australian Bodycare Skin Wash.
There are more 'At Home with Alison' videos still to come. In the meantime why not stay in touch with us by 'liking' our Facebook page and visiting us on Twitter.
I'll see you very soon, Will x

Oh my god I don't feel so guilty now I thought I had a lot of products on the go.
June 30, 2012 at 9:55 am -
Love it. It's so funny to see all of these products. It reminds me of my bathroom and cupboards!!!
June 30, 2012 at 12:52 pm -
loll that made me feel good.I am quite pleased with myself and only have maybe two or three different items on the go. but at least Ali knows where her products are and i am sure it is a chore (not) to test out some of those items but hey someone has to do it,so we know what is good for us.Feel free Ali and let me know what you would need a hand to test.
June 30, 2012 at 1:30 pm -
Err Wow! but then it is amazing to know all these things are tested for real!
A new meaning to taking your work home with you!
June 30, 2012 at 3:17 pm -
Ali.I sort of had an idea your bathroom would have been like that, well I have to say I'm not that far behind, don't have as much but I'm getting there,, loved your description as organised chaos, completely agree and I can always tell when somebody has been moving things about…. Really enjoying these videos Will, and Ali thanks for making me feel normal and that I'm not alone :)))))
June 30, 2012 at 5:20 pm -
wow , very interesting. was taken back by the number of products but it shows how well you test items and how great you are at your job. Thank you for sharing this collection of products. I tend to limit it to a couple of products for each area(part of the body and my hair). It must be tricky when it comes to cleaning between the bottles. I wonder , are you the only person to use that bathroom(on the whole)? there didn't seem to be any room for someone elses items or do you just share everything? have a great day tomorrow on QVC sounds as if it will be quite an event. all the best.
July 1, 2012 at 1:20 am -
Well I was not shocked by Alison's bathroom. To present the items and make comments about how her skin felt says she tested it, a job I WOULD LOVE TO DO!!! I did notice quite a few items I use and have done for a while which says to me that Alison uses them on a regular basis. I also do swap and change with body washes as I have found a few I really love (Elemis and Decleor).
Keep doing the good work Alison, I love to watch you.
July 1, 2012 at 2:11 am -
Beautiful bathroom. Beautifully white and deliciously clean. All those products – och Alison, what a woman you are!
July 1, 2012 at 12:03 pm -
Alison I'm well Jel at all your products although I thought I had a lot of stuff you beat us hands down. I've been watching and buying from QVC for at least 16 yrs so thank you for all your advise you've given us over that time. You are fab.
Everone laughs at me goes when i'm waxing lyrical about something they say where did you get it. They start laughing coz it's always QVC.
July 1, 2012 at 12:20 pm -
Thank god, i'm not alone in my collection of beauty products.I feel better now.i'm a real beauty junkie like yourself ali.
July 1, 2012 at 12:43 pm -
I loved seeing this! My bathroom looks pretty similar and I recognised a lot of the products Alison is currently swapping between, I have always respected Alison's opinions and advice, and to know that every product is tested like this gives me even more confidence in her conviction. Alison, you have the BEST job, and the research done in that very bathroom has helped to revolutionise complexions all over the UK!
July 1, 2012 at 10:33 pm -
My friend is always saying i have way too many products in my bathroom! Hes always knocking them over. I do have quite alot.
July 2, 2012 at 1:03 pm -
Thanks goodness. My bathroom looks like that and I don't have the excuse that I'm testing everything! But it's good to see and to read the comments of others who also recognise the 'organised chaos' as similar to their own! Looking forward to more videos, especially the horses as I'm also a massive horsey person an owner.
July 2, 2012 at 2:34 pm -
lol who does the cleaning? I must admit I'm a bit overthetop with clutterfree in the bathroom. I have large baskets (covered) with my stuff in. Lovely to see the vid, am now in search of the doggie one 🙂 x
July 2, 2012 at 5:15 pm -
Great to see that Alison's bathroom is just like mine, I have as many products as her. I don't care that it looks like "organised chaos" because I wouldn't be without any of the products I have.
July 2, 2012 at 9:15 pm -
Loved seeing Ali's bathroom and products (and yes I have many of the same ones – I'd have more if my husband didn't object to having no room for his own meagre few!) but I'm DYING to see the horses. The dogs were so adorable in the last clip but horses are my first love. Will we get to see Alison riding too? I love hearing all the stories of her animals – almost as much as all the great beauty tips!

Shares of Whole Foods Market Inc. fell more than 9% Thursday after the healthy foods retailer announced plans for a "hip-cool technology-oriented" chain targeting millennials.
Whole Foods gave few details of its plans for the new, smaller stores beyond saying they would offer all-natural food at lower prices and be geared to the 18- to 34-year-old segment that makes up almost 25% of the population.
Whole Foods plans a bigger reveal later this summer, but said the new stores would be smaller, "tech-savvy" and have a more "streamlined" design and "curated" product selection.
Stores will begin opening next year.
"It will be new, it will be different," John Mackey, co-chief executive, told analysts Wednesday. "It will be unlike any of the other stores you're seeing out there."
According to a Nielsen survey, 33% of millennials said healthful food was "very important" to them. More important, 29% were "very willing" to pay premium prices for those products.
"I don't think they have to change much of anything," said David J. Livingston, founder of supermarket research firm DJL Research. "I think they hit it off pretty well with the millennials."
Josh Goldman, global director for digital shopping at Nielsen, said Whole Foods should make sure to retain quick and easy meals, which are "king" with millennials.
The emphasis on technology should also expand beyond just finding products at the store, he added.
"Millennials will look for an engaging and interactive shopping experience," Goldman said. "It has to be two-way -- so, for example, consumers should be able to look to the store to receive recipes, ask for items, etc., but the store should provide digital platforms to do so."
Several analysts said the new stores needed to go beyond the millennial buzzword to give the company a way to differentiate itself in an increasingly crowded organic food landscape.
"The industry is changing, and it's changing rapidly," said Brian Yarbrough, senior analyst at Edward Jones. "You're seeing a lot more competition coming in, and they're coming in at lower price points, and that's causing some issues for Whole Foods."
Though some analysts said the new stores could cannibalize business from current Whole Foods sites, Mackey said they would complement each other.
"They'll come in and enjoy the big, exciting Whole Foods Market and they'll do filling shops at the new concept," he told analysts. "The stores will intermix with each other."
Whole foods shares fell $4.38, or 9.2%, to $43.34.

Our cigarettes are produced in factories across the world, and each brand has its own unique recipe. Cigarettes are made from:
tobacco, selected according to specific blends and leaf grades to maintain the consistency and distinctive character of each brand
ingredients, added to many of our brands to keep the tobacco moist, aid the manufacturing process, replenish natural sugars lost during leaf curing, and contribute to each brand's unique taste
nontobacco materials, such as cigarette paper and filters
We operate 44 production facilities and produce over 800 billion cigarettes each year. Cigarettes are produced in factories around the world by processing the tobacco leaf, manufacturing the cigarettes, and preparing the final pack. Learn more below.
Our experts use their detailed knowledge to carefully select the blend of different tobacco types (such as Virginia, burley, and oriental) and leaf grades used in our cigarette brands. The tobaccos are selected to maintain the consistency and distinctive character of each brand.
In addition to tobacco, which is the main ingredient in all of our cigarettes, other ingredients are added to many of our brands. Some ingredients, such as humectants, help maintain the moisture and pliability of the tobacco leaf. Others contribute to the taste and aroma of the tobacco leaf smoke.
After the tobaccos are blended together, the tobacco blend is finely cut before it passes through a drying cylinder to reduce moisture. When the moisture is at an optimal level, the blend is ready for cigarette manufacturing.
Our machines can produce up to 20,000 cigarettes every minute.
The process begins by creating one long cigarette, called a 'rod.' To produce the rod, a spool of cigarette paper up 7,000 meters long is unrolled and a line of tobacco is placed on it. The cigarette paper is then wrapped around the tobacco, forming the rod.
Machines slice the super-sized rod into shorter pieces, inserting filters at both ends. The filters are then connected with 'tipping paper', the paper consumers see wrapped around the filter tip of a cigarette. Each shorter rod is then cut in half, producing two filtered cigarettes. The construction quality of each cigarette is checked at three different stages.
The pack itself is assembled around the cigarettes. The finished pack is then wrapped with protective film, which also serves to preserve the cigarettes' aroma and freshness. The packs are placed in cartons or wrapped and placed into a master case for shipment.
Although the manufacturing of cigarettes is a highly automated process, it also requires careful supervision by our factory workers. Inspection of the leaf, blending, and quality assurance of the final product can never be left solely to machines.
No. It's nicotine that makes cigarettes addictive. Nicotine exists naturally in tobacco, which is the main ingredient in our cigarettes.
We make a wide variety of international and local cigarette brands, and sell fine-cut tobacco, roll-your-own, make-your-own, cigars, cigarillos, and pipe tobacco.
We disclose the ingredients that go into each brand of our combustible tobacco products. Use our ingredient finder to find out what's in each one. Start by selecting the country where the product is sold.

He opened the packet, took out the instruction manual and began to read. The concept of karma, or the law of cause and effect, had always fascinated him. At first sight it appeared a remarkably obvious process. But then, it implied that there was a form of super organic organization behind the scenes. Decisions would have to made involving millions of lives past and present lives all creating and burning off karma until they merged unsullied into the great light of creation, the permanent now.
This pendulum-based karmic clearance system had been devised by a man who claimed to have already by-passed it and reached the point where he was able to communicate with spiritual beings by blinking. Neat, Paul thought, although, what if you didn't wish to communicate? Initially however, the process was straightforward. Whatever responded to the spinning pendulum, which seemed to act as a kind of cosmic key or telephone line, had to be identified as being your soul guardian - rather like a guardian angel. The guardian could not lie to you but other wayward spirits would do more than lie. It seemed the invisible world of spirit was teeming with life, albeit dead from a human perspective. By asking questions that you alone knew the answers to, it could be established that you were in direct communication with your guardian angel not with some mischievous spirit.
You could isolate past and future lives, discover who you were or would be, understand the nature of traumatic events that may have taken place and ask your supreme soul to clear them from your soul, spirit, psyche or karmic load. Some of the more sinister categories included satanic possession. A slight shiver ran down Paul's spine when he saw this, but the problem was, did you have to believe in all this stuff for it to be true, or, was it just the way things were irrespective of what human beings believed?
Paul began by a process of self-analysis, letting the pendulum have free rein. He noted that it was purely a matter of dreaming up a question to which an answer of sorts was given. The answers prompted further questions and answers until Paul was deep in a kind of meditative trance.
"Do I have problems from a past life?" he asked.
The pendulum indicated he had. What followed then was a bizarre series of questions and answers. Paul didn't know where the questions were coming from. They just popped into his head.
"Was I male?"
"Am I male now?"
"Hey, what is this?"
Paul realized he had not been carrying out the regular safety checks.
"Are you my soul guardian?"
"No, yes."
"You're crazy."
Paul asked for the soul guardian to return and this time he felt he could sense the difference. The manual recommended using the chart to narrow down areas of investigation and then position the pendulum over the palm of the hand to ask questions and request clearance.
He also realized that he could ask questions about other people. To begin with, he pressed on about his own life or lives.
"What event in my last life has caused trouble in this one?" he inquired.
The pendulum moved to the section covering death. Paul paused. Did he really want to go down this road?
This is more than self-analysis, he concluded. And the longer he pressed on, the deeper became the questions he was asking, mainly of himself. It was stunning how a simple yes and no question session began to unlock emotions and fears he had long since buried or didn't know he had.
"Did I have a happy death last time?" he queried.
"Why?" Paul thought he'd try a new tack.
The pendulum began to spin in a large circle, first to the left and then to the right. Then it changed direction and hit the section denoted as trauma pretty violently, Paul thought. The pendulum seemed to contain its own life force, gentle and passive when the questions were run-of-the-mill but markedly furious when they got to be near-the-knuckle.
"Was I murdered?" Paul ventured.
"Yes," came the answer with what Paul felt was a degree of satisfaction.
"Are you my supreme soul?" he checked.
The pendulum swung to a yes answer and Paul believed it. Paul asked a series of questions relating to this death and discovered that he had lived more then a century ago in Syria. He was learning the technique of short circuiting hundreds of questions and getting to the answer pretty swiftly. He didn't know what to believe. What exactly was he communicating with? Whatever it was, it had to be in his mind, or in his brain. But it was wholly unlikely that he could have dug up some fantasy story about being a Syrian in a previous life on his own account.
He paused for a while and looked out of his office window. He needed to talk to someone about this. The process was starting to leave a faint whiff of unease inside him. He couldn't put his finger on it.
He changed tack and began to ask questions about Kate and their marriage.
The pendulum adamantly moved to the section, which denoted discontent in this life. This was at the opposite end of the chart to his original questions about himself.
"Is Kate happy?" he asked.
"Yes." the pendulum circled to the left. Then, before Paul could ask another question, it began to reverse its direction.
Concerned and irritated, Paul checked out his soul guardian to make sure no wandering spirit had happened to find the channel open. No, the supreme soul was still in control. On an impulse Paul asked:
"Has Kate ever been unfaithful to me?"
There was a pause as the pendulum returned to vertical and then spun conclusively to the left. Paul looked up stunned for a moment, alternately believing and disbelieving. He didn't notice the pendulum had stopped circling and had reversed direction.
Paul slammed the pendulum down on the desk and stared at it. It wasn't possible. He knew Kate so well. He would surely have known. Then a worm of doubt slithered into his subconscious. What about the visits she used to make to that riding stables with Bessie, their bay mare? She had always returned from those visits a little higher than normal. He hadn't noticed anything in particular and he had met the guy who ran the stables at country shows when he accompanied Kate and Bessie to help out. Now, he thought back, had there been a spark between them? There was nothing obvious at the time.
None of this could be true. He refused to believe it. Dare he ask the question?
He picked up the golden chain and positioned the pendulum over his left palm then took a deep breath,
"Was it Terry?" he asked. "Has Kate had an affair with Terry Sullivan?"

Questions, questions and few answers. Welcome to the life of a lawyer.
This semester, I am participating in a clinic where we serve indigent clients. (The idea of representing a real and live person is absolutely frightening though). My clinical experience has shown itself to be an incredible and unparalleled learning experience. One of the key lessons that I learned (and am still learning) is the importance of questioning.
You may think that the act of questioning is solely confined to depositions or client interviews, situations where you are actively trying to get information from someone else. Not true. A competent laywer must question everything she does, sees or learns about. You must constantly question your next move – is this truly necessary? Does this action serve the clients' objectives? if you don't, you may veer off-course and end up wasting your and your client's time. Also, you must question everything you disclose – is this confidential? Did my client approve? Most of all, you must question your assumptions – you know the saying, when you assume, you make an ASS out of U and ME. Just imagine, doing that in a professional and legal setting, where the stakes are high – ouch.
Most law students (including me) are loath to question – we think it makes us look incompetent and dumb. In fact, it's a sign of truly competent and intelligent lawyering. You need to know all of the facts and underlying assumptions to get the right answer.
Now, you may be asking yourself, how is this relevant to me as a d/Deaf/HOH person and a non-lawyer? Well, it is.
One thing I find to be very disturbing about some of us d/Deaf/HOH folks is the reluctance to question hearing people. Of course, this is fairly common among any population, but I fear that d/Deaf/HOH people suffer the most from the consequences. If you don't question the doctor about his or her diagnosis because "its just too difficult to communicate" – it's your life. If it is a legal proceeding, if you do not question why you are not getting the necessary accommodations – the consequences could be grave.
There's something uniquely repressive about being d/Deaf/HOH – people have a tendency to give us limited information. You know that famous phrase, "oh never-mind," after you ask a question – that I'm sure more than a few of you have heard. The "never-mind" phrase is one of the most toxic phrases anyone can tell a d/Deaf/HOH person. It discourages that person from questioning, from getting answers and encourages complacency. By making us feel that we are being "difficult" for asking questions, these never-minders makes the act of questioning a negative thing, which is the furthest thing from the truth. Also, it puts the hearing person into the coveted position of an information-holder, establishing an aura of superiority. One of the saddest phrases I've ever heard a d/Deaf person say was, "you're hearing, you know everything!" (Obviously, not to me, ha!). Just because some hearing people withhold information (usually out of convenience, frustration and neglect), doesn't make them any better (or more well informed) than any of us.
If d/Deaf/HOH people questioned more, pushed more, maybe, just maybe, people would rethink their assumptions and discriminatory attitudes towards d/Deaf/HOH folks. If you ask why you are not getting the necessary accommodations, you may discover that some people have misguided assumptions. Once we get these assumptions out in the open, then we can counter them. For example, many people's insnict is to equate the inability or difficulty in verbal communication with inability to think or reason. That assumption is, at best, misguided and , at worst, discriminatory. Once people realize they are assuming this and this assumption is wrong…maybe it will be easier for a d/Deaf/HOH person to succeed at whatever she wants to do.
So being a compentent lawyer is not so different from being a successful d/Deaf/HOH person.
Questions? 🙂

A few months ago I had offered my services to Gale Force 9 to work for them at Gen Con, little suspecting that they would take me up on my offer - happily they did and I get to help demo / play two new games they have coming out. As they describe it: "Star Trek: Ascendancy – a 4X game pitting the Federation, Klingons & Romulans against each other in a struggle for galactic supremacy and Tyrants of the Underdark – a game of intrigue and power brokering designed by the team behind the popular Lords of Waterdeep." I'm both excited and terrified. I have to learn two games in a short time and I'm a master procrastinator who has a thousand and one things that are screaming to be done yesterday - But like any good procrastinator, I know it will all work out.

In More About Hawaiian Monk Seals
What Do Hawaiian Monk Seals Eat?
- Hawaiian monk seals are "generalist" feeders, which means they eat a variety of foods depending on what's available.
- They eat many types of common fishes, squid, octopus, eels and crustaceans (crabs, shrimp and lobster). Diet studies indicate that they prefer prey that is easier to catch than most of the locally popular game fish (e.g. ulua, papio and oio). Hawaiian monk seals have never been observed hunting pelagic fish, such as mahi-mahi, ahi, aku, etc.
- Monk seals are primarily "benthic" foragers (bottom feeders), eating a variety of prey including fish, cephalopods, and crustaceans. Their diet varies by location, sex, and age. Monk seals generally hunt for food outside of the immediate shoreline areas in waters 60-300 feet (18-90 m) deep. Monk seals are also known to forage deeper than 1,000 feet (330 m), where they prey on eels and other benthic organisms.

I decided to do a turquoise blue and lime green with white and a touch of red color scheme for my Christmas decor this year. Along with that I decided to use my hubby's gumdrop tree that I haven't used since we've been married. He used to put it out each year when we were dating because it was one of his childhood traditions, but after we got married and moved, it just stayed boxed up. So I was determined to use it on my table scape this year, but how? How was I going to tie it in to the blue and green and other things?
I searched and pinned and pinned ideas and none of them were really anything I wanted to repeat or had much to do with candy except candy canes and red and white schemes. I ultimately did end up using candy canes, but blue, green and red ones- not the traditional ones.
So here's the end result and the details of how it came together ( warning- picture overload!)

The aim of the Philosophy of Science M.A. program is to provide students with the tools to engage in philosophical reflection concerning the conceptual foundations of the sciences, and their social and political significance. In addition, students receive a more general philosophical education, covering both contemporary philosophy and the history of philosophy, and will learn to critically analyze and develop arguments. The skills which this program is designed to develop can be applied beyond philosophy, enhancing students' ability to engage in critical analysis of contemporary problems, arising in a complex world increasingly influenced by science and technology. There are several potential career paths for which these skills are an asset:
1) You could pursue an academic career: in this case, your next step would be a doctorate, preferably in philosophy or in philosophy of science. The Institute of Philosophy at Leibniz Universität Hannover hosts the graduate research training group "Integrating Ethics and Epistemology of Scientific Research" (DFG-GRK 2073) in collaboration with the Philosophy Department of Bielefeld University, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG).
2) There exist a variety of public sector jobs which utilize the skill set acquired in the M.A. program: universities and research institutions offer positions in research management, in research-related public relations or as coordinators of interdisciplinary research groups. There are similar administrative positions in government agencies (especially those involved with science policy, education, technology, environment, or health), and in science funding agencies.
3) You may wish to search for a job the private sector. Careers for which the critical thinking, writing and research skills developed in the program are essential range from publishing houses, the media, and private foundations to freelance journalism or ethics counseling.

The International break is over and it's time to welcome back the Premier League this weekend, as well as a new pair of footy boots.
Released today, the PUMA evoSPEED 1.3 X-Ray LE are limited to 910 pairs worldwide.
Though their name is bulky, the boots themselves are constructed from a monolayer micro-fibre upper, making them super light and tactile. Design-wise, they carry an x-ray of a foot and a multi-coloured array of tendons and veins – at the very least, should it come to it, the x-ray design will help the triage nurse determine which metatarsal you've snapped.
Priced £175.00, they're available from selected PUMA stockists.

So you can imagine that view count for that topic is generated pretty fast now.
I wonder if there is another way to get the content without adding to topic view count?
Or maybe I can disable view count for this specific topic?
Or maybe just leave it alone until 6 zero digits start popping up?

Breen's fountain sees booming business in its final days
The era of the 'Big Brave' comes to an end
Monday afternoon Florence Griffin, the wife of the late Dr. Richard Griffin of Benson, and son Tim were having one last lunch at Breen's Pharmacy. They had come from Cold Springs to take in a nostalgic moment at the Breen's Fountain before it was set to close at the end of the day Tuesday.
They, like many others over the past two weeks, since the advertisement ran in the Swift County Monitor-News Jan. 18 announcing the fountain was closing Jan. 31, made a special trip for a last visit to the fountain. But there were plenty of local people filling the booths, seated at the tables, and perched on blue stools as well.
Last Saturday the fountain was full of people visiting for one last Big Brave (burger, fries and a thick made-from-ice-cream shake), or Little Brave (burger, fries and a pop,) or just one last chocolate shake all by its delicious self.
The fountain has operated since the early 1960s when businessman/Pharmacist Dave Breen and his wife Gert opened the store at its new location on Pacific Avenue. Monday Gert said that Dave had opened the fountain to give people a place to sit while he filled their prescriptions.
Though a native of South Dakota, Dave Breen was an avid and devoted sports fan of the Benson Braves, from which the Big Brave and Little Brave got their names.
There was no hesitation in reopening the fountain after a fire gutted the store in December 1978. "The pack will be back," Dave Breen wrote in a column in the Swift County Monitor shortly after the fire. The new store built in 1979 actually featured a fountain that was bigger with more seating.
Dave Breen's son, Vyke, eventually joined his father in the Benson with his wife, Laree, an essential part of the business operation. A third generation of the family will soon become part of the business when Vyke and Laree's daughter Ginger returns to Benson in July. She is graduating from the North Dakota State University in Fargo, N.D., this summer and will return to work along side her father and mother.
"Saturday was by far the biggest day the fountain has had in its whole history," Vyke Breen said in an interview Monday. "Breakfast was normal, but from 11 o'clock until 2:30 it was gangbusters." Laree Breen was making trips to Super Valu to restock the fountain with ice cream and ketchup.
"Saturday I had at least 25 calls asking how late the fountain was open," Breen said. "I had calls from people asking if we were open Sunday." The steady stream of people continued into Monday and Tuesday....

Boost.StaticAssert is a way to perform some assertions at compile time.
Perhaps you require longs to be twice as long as ints. You would write:
Now if you ever compile on a platform/compiler where this statement is false, the compilation will fail. Traditionally, I believe this was implemented as follows:
#define MY_STATIC_ASSERT(expr) int A[int(expr)];
Since arrays of size 0 are not allowed in C++, you would get an error like:
/tmp/test.cc:11: error: ISO C++ forbids zero-size array 'A'
Which tells you nothing at all. If you saw this error you would have no idea why it occurred. until you navigated to the erroneous line (a non-issue with IDEs, for sure.) As a side-effect, if the assertion is true, it creates an array of size 1. Not very nice. So we need some way to ensure that the compilation can atleast show what happened without navigating to the source.
The latest version of boost/static_assert.hpp uses the fact that sizeof(T) is pretty much guaranteed to show T in the error message when T is an incomplete type (STATIC_ASSERTION_FAILURE<false> in the case of Boost.) The header file is full of if-defery that makes my eyes bleed. But it gets the job done:
/tmp/test.cc:9: error: invalid application of 'sizeof' to incomplete type 'boost::STATIC_ASSERTION_FAILURE<false>'
I have a simple alternative. I've only tried it on Visual C++ and GNU G++ but I can't imagine why it wouldn't work on other compilers. Instead of depending on sizeof(incomplete-type) to show incomplete-type in the compile error, it references a nested type that doesn't exist:
#define STATIC_ASSERT(expr) typedef static_assert<(bool)(expr)>::STATIC_ASSERTION_FAILED static_assertion_t_12312;
template <bool x> struct static_assert;
template <> struct static_assert<true>{struct STATIC_ASSERTION_FAILED{};};
template <> struct static_assert<false>{};
This also gets the job done:
/tmp/test.cc:9: error: 'STATIC_ASSERTION_FAILED' in class 'static_assert
' does not name a type
No code, no data and performs the same job in 4 lines of code. I must be missing something.

Jagged Ghosts
Use your free time effectively and create some cheerful creative paper decorations. Creative tips for children will inspire you. For example, you can create several jagged ghosts.
Materials Needed: Colorful papers, drawing papers, scissors, glue, markers, and crayons.
Instructions: Cut two identical circles out of colorful paper. Then, fold one in half. Stick the first circle on the drawing paper and glue the second circle on it, but only a half of it. They will create a mouth that can be opened. Then, shape the ghosts according to your own imagination. Cut the eyes, teeth, tongue, wings, and antennae out of the paper and stick them on. You do not have to visit creative workshops since you can produce these spooks at home. Have fun.

With popular restaurants these days, it is not uncommon for them to not taking bookings. This means it is first in, best dressed, and everyone else must either queue, put their name on a waiting list, or take a seat at the bar, depending on the establishment. Mamasita is a very popular Mexican restaurant in Collins Street in Melbourne, and any day of the week, you will see a large line snaking its way from its unassuming entrance down the street.
Tim and I had tried to go to Mamasitas once before with two other friends, but despite arriving at 6.30pm on a Saturday night, the wait time for a table of four was two hours, so we decided to go somewhere else.
However, on a recent weekend movie excursion, we decided to give Mamasitas a go with just the two of us for lunch. Mamasitas opens at 12.30pm, and we were second in line, so we easily got a table. On entering Mamasitas, you climb a narrow staircase into the restaurant, and are greeted by a bright wooden minimalist interior:
To kick off proceedings, I ordered a Mexican Sol beer ($9):
The menu is designed for sharing, like a Mexican style family feast. We ordered enough dishes for the two of us, which came out in no particular order.
The first dish to come out was the Ceviche Verde ($8.80), consisting of lime-cured market fish, green tomato, jalapeño, cucumber, avocado and spring onion:
The ceviche was served with corn chips for scooping it up. It had a lovely kick to it, not too overpowering, and was a great way to kick off our Mamasita exeprience.
Next up came the Tostadita de Frijoles (4 for $13.20):
This was a dish of dried tortilla chips topped with black beans, sweetcorn, roasted tomato and queso fresco (cheese). They were very tasty, and I am a fan of black beans.
Next up came a dish we ordered out of curiosity, Plátanos machos ($7.70) - crispy plantains, cucumber, salsa and queso fresco:
Plaintains are not readily available in Australia, so I had never tried them before and was keen to do so. Tim had never heard of plaintains, so he had to rely on my description of "like bananas". We enjoyed this dish - the fried plaintain was an unusual alternative to corn chips to scoop up the filling on top.Our next dish was de Arrachera Taco ($6.60) - grilled flank steak, guacamole, tomatillo salsa and red onion:
What's not to like here - for us, the flavours were familiar, and this dish didn't disappoint.
Our final dish was the Quesadilla de Chorizo ($16.50) - wheat tortillas filled with chorizo, potato and queso fresco with jalapeño crema:
I really can't remember much about this dish, but needless to say, it can't have been bad because we polished it off.
The service at Mamasita was efficient and friendly, and the atmosphere was party like but you can easily chat with your dining companion.
Mamasita was a winner for us and we'd go again.

Washington, April 21: French presidential candidate Emmanuel Macron has made public a private telephone call from former US President Barack Obama, by uploading the call on Twitter, a media report said.
Obama privately called Macron on Thursday — a conversation that the French leader promptly made public days ahead of the first round of voting on Sunday — a closely watched race, CNN reported.
The former US President called Macron to wish him luck but not to issue an endorsement, according to Obama spokesman Kevin Lewis.
But that did not stop Macron from publicising the call, writing on Twitter: "Let's keep defending our progressive values."
"The main message that I have is to wish you all the best in the coming days," Obama was heard saying on the speakerphone.
"Make sure… you work hard all the way through. Because, you never know — it might be that last day of campaigning that makes all the difference."
The 60-second video appears edited and with some redaction. But the contents of such calls tend to be kept private. Obama is not endorsing before the Sunday round of voting, CNN said in its report.
"President Obama appreciated the opportunity to hear from Macron about his campaign," Lewis said in the statement.
The upcoming presidential election in France is "important", Lewis said.
The spokesman also said the former President remains deeply committed to France as a close ally of the US.

Zebra, $5.99, ISBN 0-8217-7508-1
Contemporary Romance, 2003
I wasn't aware until I notice the name at the copyright statement that author Kirstin Hill also writes historical romances under the name Candace McCarthy. This is the first time I am reading the author's book under the Kirstin Hill name, and Hot under the Collar is every bit as painful to read as the historical romances written under her other name.
Utilizing the familiar and ridiculous "me sexy/not really" schizoid dichotomy heroine and really inane mistaken identities, this book is basically all about a heroine cruising on brain tank empty and a creep hero taking her for a ride all the way to the end. Cassie Knight is the typical idiot heroine that insists on being pure and prim even as she becomes a late night DJ, "Sondra", where she unleashes her inner slut. Or something. If you like all those stories about prim librarians getting drunk and doing stripper acts only to go "Oh my God! I am so ashamed! And I AM PREGNANT!" like six thousand Harlequin Blaze books out there, you'll like Cassie here. "Sondra" blows kisses and speaks in a breathy voice, and apparently everyone in Baltimore is so starved of entertainment that "Sondra" becomes a major celebrity there. But nobody knows what "Sondra" look like. It is up to Nathan Taylor, reporter and all time smarm, to find out who "Sondra" is. After a few failed attempts, he impersonates a Frenchman, Henri, and approaches a coworker at the station, Cassie. And Cassie, the idiot, falls hook, line, and sinker to "Henri"'s calculated seduction.
The author pretty much gives away how shoddy her plotting is early in the book when in Chapter One, Cassie's mother calls her up only to lecture Cassie on the evils of living in the big city, and after a few pages of shrill bitchiness, hangs up. Why did the mother call in the first place? And then I am introduced to Nate when he's trying to get in bed with a woman that's still smarting from being dumped by her boyfriend, solely for sex. What a charmer. The rest of the story sees Cassie being so unbelievably gullible and Nate so cold and ruthless in his plots and strategies that it's like watching a happy sheep being led to the abattoir. Cassie also has that annoying "He can't love me! He loves Sondra! Boo hoo hoo!" nonsense going on. Meanwhile, Nate really dazzles me when he realizes that he can't lie to Cassie any more a few chapters close to the end of the book but decides that he must keep up the charade because otherwise he will lose his job – how else will he support Cassie then? So he must find "Sondra" and then, having screwed Cassie in more ways than one, he will apologize, tell her he loves her, and everything will be okay again. And shame on Cassie, she actually buys that act. Sucker.
I also find it rather insulting that in the end, it is Cassie that must undergo the epiphany – that is, she realizes that Nate is right, she is both Sondra and Cassie, so hurrah, no more schizo heroine! – instead of Nate that has been lying to her all this while. Actually, forget epiphany, both of them just need to go back to school and learn how to stop being so stupid before they pretend to be grown-ups in love.
Hot under the Collar is a so-so Harlequin Blaze book but a truly horrible, unrealistic, and pathetic "Con the nitwit heroine and make her love you!" romance book.

"...telling the truth is often the seed that gives birth to love. When we are able to honestly name our fear, our sadness, and confusion -- and when we can meet ourselves, just as we are, with acceptance and compassion -- then we cultivate the possibility of an authentic loving kindness toward ourselves. Without truth, we may learn to accept who we appear to be, but what we are accepting is a lie. Mindfully naming where we are stuck, frightened, or caught opens the door to genuine self-acceptance and loving kindness toward ourselves and others.
Jack Kornfield, a gentle teacher of Buddhist meditation, says that the essence of spiritual practice is self-acceptance:
"...It is the ground out of which any other freedom or understanding can come. Our practice is to begin to listen to where we are closed to ourselves, to our bodies, our feelings, our hearts ... and out of this can come a very deep opening, and forgiveness, and healing of the heart.""

Jay Clark has suggested on the Sunday Rub there is not much to the Aliir Aliir story - he just missed his alarm.
Aliir was a late withdrawal from Sydney's side to take on Brisbane after missing a training session.
"Aliir Aliir, the young key defender was a late withdrawal, and pretty disappointing because he missed training yesterday," Clarky said on Triple M.
"So the Swans had an early morning session, I think it was 9am, a swim, some goalkicking, some training et cetera, and he wasn't there.
Clarky said Aliir just missed his alarm, and not much more.
"We believe he just sort of slept through his alarm clock," he said.
"Was just one of those sleep in type issues...I don't know that it goes back any further than that."
Wayne Carey had a bit of a laugh.
"We've all slept in at some point!" he laughed.
"If he was the captain of the footy club and he rang up and said, look, I've slept in, he wouldn't be dropped."
