Psychopharmacologists are on the rise, as the pill replaces talk therapy in treating mental illness
If the icon of American psychiatry was for years a couch, it is now arguably a pill. And that change in focus has brought to prominence a new type of psychiatrist: the psychopharmacologist.
The term usually refers to a psychiatrist who concentrates on the pharmaceutical treatment of complex mental illnesses. This kind of doctor is unlikely to be administering talk therapy, and probably wouldn't handle many cases that called for prescribing a single drug, such as Prozac....

Thread: Anyone try / use Tradesports?
Anyone try / use Tradesports?
Hey crew,
A buddy recommended a sports betting site to me and I gave it a go because you get $20 bonus bucks just by signing up. Anyway after a couple of bets I decided to cash out $26 bucks. Cashing out was easy because there's no personal information needed, just my address so they can mail a check. Now I'm super skeptical about this stuff, so I had a feeling nothing was going to come in so I just saw it as something fun to do. I cashed out on in May and a freaking check actually came in the mail like 5 days later. http://i.imgur.com/FtMWFJy.jpg
So the damn thing is actually legit! I have about 30 still on the site, and haven't had to put a penny in.
Here's a link if anyone wants to try it - > https://www.tradesports.com?referrer=randomh&rsrc=link
This Ad will be removed when you a member of sportscardforum.com
Has anyone else been doing this?yum spam.
The best way to contact me is through PM.

As I know peace within my heart, peace prevails in my world.
Let there be peace on earth, and let it begin with me. These words remind me of where to begin when I pray for world peace--within myself.
When I pray, I am making a difference. My thoughts and prayers have the power to affect me and those around me in positive ways. As I affirm peace, I feel peaceful in mind and heart and I express that peace to others. My expressions of peace create a chain reaction that travels from one person to another, opening minds and hearts to the blessing of love, compassion and understanding--attitudes that help create peace in the world.
Today I do my part in establishing world peace by holding positive thoughts and expressing the indwelling peace of God.
As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.--John 9:5

Worship is the heart of our life together, all the rest is for the purpose of making that possible, meaningful and uplifting and it is worship that equips us for living out our life in Christ in the world around us. - Rev. E. Heather Benson, Parish Priest.
We celebrate the Holy Eucharist, Sunday, at 10:00 a.m.
Holy Days of Obligation & other events at 5:00 p.m., or as scheduled.
All are welcome to worship with us and take communion.
We are a liturgical and sacramental faith. Our service includes singing - lead by our organist, prayers, readings, and liturgy from the Bible and The Book of Common Prayer. Service bulletins are provided as a guide to the order of service for hymns and liturgy.
An Invitation - If you are visiting for the first time and/or the Episcopal Church is a new experience, someone in our congregation will gladly sit with you and guide you through our service. We are casual in attendance. There is no need to wear a tie, unless you really want too. Unlike some restaurants, we will not cut off your tie and pin it to the wall.
Parish LIfe
The rich traditions of the Episcopal Church provides for many ways in which individuals can participate in the life of our parish. We welcome the opportunity to include people where they have an active interest. Our parish community includes Eucharistic ministers, readers for scripture, prayer, acolytes, vestry members, altar guild, Sunday School, stewardship, hosting social functions, and fundraisers. Some functions require training before being placed on a schedule, but information is always available through our priest or other members of the congregation.
Coffee Hour - After every Sunday service, we join one another in our parish hall for treats and conversation. Please join us. You'll have an opportunity to meet members of our parish and learn more about St. David's.
We maintain an active prayer list, which is offered to God during our service. If you have intercessions for which you would like our congregation to remember in pray, for yourself or for others, please contact us by submitting the form on the Contact tab.
Caring for others
Caring for others is important to St. David's as we live out our Christian lives. We support various concerns and fundraisers as need arises in our community and the wider world. An important local organization that we support with giving is Foothills Rural Community Ministry of Holland Patent, NY., along with Sara's Pet Pantry. Both ministries work to meet the needs of people and pets with food pantries and other concerns. You can help support these worthy services by contacting, donating, or serving at foothillsruralcommunityministry.org.
St. David's also supports the ministries and aide work by Episcopal Relief & Development Fund. Each year we supported aide for humanitarian and disaster relief nationally and around the world. You can help, support alongside the parishioners of St. Davids, by going to www.episcopalrelief.org.
Children - Sunday School is offered beginning at 10:00 am. We are using the Good News Curriculum. All children are welcome. Sunday School is not offered during the summer season corresponding with the school break. If children would rather stay with their families during Mass, they are welcomed to do so. However, children from Sunday School do rejoin their families in the nave of the church for Holy Communion.

Suite des cheveux, Opus 53
"The human mind moves as fast as a horse." (Einstein)
With this sentence in their heads, the group TUIG started building a sound cart. This forms a grandiose, mechanically driven musical instrument whereby the heroes of the performance, Gionne, Liesa, and Nikkie (3PK) determine the rhythm. It's a performance around a sound cart in which the magic of the gears with wondrous accumulated objects reveal themselves in one musical instrument. With blood, wood, sweat, steel and tears these sixty instruments form an orchestral primeval sound source. The public shall be introduced to the natural rhythm and the reverse side of contemporary digital technology. It's a musical performance about rush and serenity.

Plant genetic resources and resilient seed systems for sustainable food security
Increasing stresses on agricultural systems have resulted in an intensification of the use of natural resources for agricultural production. Many have risen concerns on the future of food and nutrition security, especially for smallholder farmers and their communities. The actual seed systems appear not sustainable if we are to feed more than 9 billion people in 2050. For agriculture to be sustainable, new approaches in seed systems ought to transit from conservation towards resilience.
Why resilient seed systems?
An integrated approach: resilient seed systems
The challenge is not to maintain the status quo of a particular system, but to make it more amenable to deal with stresses and shocks of different nature. To achieve this a much better understanding is required of the processes that make seed systems operate effectively or not, especially in what concern individual and collective decision-making capacity of farmers. This can be done by increasing the access to useful knowledge and information, creating opportunities to learn about (new) crops and crop varieties that fit local agricultural conditions, building new or expanding existing relationships to exchange seeds and related knowledge, and through participation in community and higher level decision-making processes related to seeds.
From a research and development point of view, it requires a holistic, dynamic and participatory approach that supports farmers to understand and implement the principles of a resilient seed system, fosters collective action and catalyses innovation.
Course objectives
Upon completion of the course you will:
- Be familiar with contemporary approaches towards crop conservation and sustainable use of plan and genetic resource for food and agriculture (PGRFA);
- Know the conceptual framework of resilient seed systems, its components and practices;
- Be able to identify opportunities in your local context to integrate resilient seed systems and food security in implementation strategies
- Learn mechanism and procedure for acquiring (new) planting material;
- Designing a successful intervention for resilient seed systems and food security;
- Linking ex-situ conservation (seed conserved in a genebank) with on-farm management of PGRFA through a community seed bank, seed fairs, diversity blocks);
- Learn about supportive policies and laws boosting seed systems towards resilience.
Target audience
The training is designed for public, civil, research, education and/or development professionals woking in a range of a relevant programmes. Applicants should have at least a BSc degree, have three years of professional experience in a relevant field, and be proficiency in English.

This is the busiest time of year for Jeanette and I as J's Everyday Fashion moves in concert with the retail cycle. "Busyness" makes it really easy [for me] to forget to take the time to reflect on the things and people for which I am thankful. I am thankful for my wife, good friends, the roof over my head, and that all of my basic needs [and then some] are met. But when I woke up yesterday morning, Facebook decided to help me to be thankful for a reason I had not considered – one that required a little more introspection.
Facebook reminded me that in all of my wisdom, I posted this meme 8 years ago – that's right, just before Thanksgiving. This meme that I thought cleverly and succinctly broke down one of the major issues facing our society. At the time, I was aware people were homeless, I just wasn't educated about the actual issue of homelessness or the many people it impacts.
This was a time when I cleverly drove around with a stack of business cards from Labor Ready in my car so that I could hand them out to the people asking for money at the highway exits. After all, I worked for my money, surely that's all they needed to do too, right? I firmly believed that people needed to just pull themselves up by their bootstraps - not taking the time to acknowledge that figuratively and often literally, many didn't even have boots to start.
Knowing what I know today, it's a bit embarrassing to share this image, but I figure it is worth a little personal embarrassment in order to pass along this worthwhile message… It doesn't matter if what you once believed was based in ignorance as long as you allow yourself room to grow and take hold of opportunities to do so. And once that growth has occurred, it is just as important to take the time to enlighten those around you that may also hold your previous views as their truth.
For me, it took spending countless hours with countless numbers of people who are/were dealing with chronic homelessness as I began working on the Rethink Homelessness Campaign. Through this time, I not only learned why my beliefs about homelessness were wrong, but I also learned some valuable life lessons from some of the people who I had the opportunity to befriend.
This Thanksgiving, I'm thankful for...
Michael, who epitomizes eternal optimism while having every conceivable reason to be pessimistic.
Tammy, who remains strong in times I don't believe I could.
Nehemiah, who endlessly pursued education, and couldn't pass up the chance to laugh.
Ron, who looks out for others even in times when he should be looking out for himself.
Jimmy, who taught me just how close to home this issue really is for so many - even those like myself who didn't want to acknowledge it.
Eddie, who reminded me that whether you spend the day collecting cans, cleaning toilets, or sitting behind a desk running a company, you should never be ashamed for putting in a hard days work.
Machel, who time and time again helped me to see that people without means didn't want those of us with means to not have the things that we have because they don't have them. But rather, they would just like a chance to have some of those things too.
William, who would remind me that you get to decide your attitude, regardless of your circumstances.
What or who are you thankful for this year?

Gonna Do It
I'm the classic "gonna do it" guy.
This morning out for a walk with my wife, having a serious talk to which I should have been paying better attention, I remembered deciding in graduate school to write a book about writing. I had the idea. I had the motivation. I had it all.
Twenty-six years later I still haven't written it.
I meant to. No, really. I swear.
I'm the alcoholic having one more drink before I quit, the smoker down to just eight cigarettes a day and switching to vaping, the spender going frugal right after I buy a cup of coffee and a cookie. I'm that guy.
Maybe you are too.
I'm starting something. I've started already and taken this short break to tell you before I get back to it. I'm cleaning my desk.
Big freaking deal.
It kind of is though. I'm cleaning a stack of stuff I've been "gonna do." There are three folders of paper, articles, notes, and drafts some of which are a year old. It weighs on me, drags me down. It's stuff I'm gonna do but don't.
Shouldn't I be doing it right now then?
I would but in the midst of doing it I thought, "I should write about this at some point." I was about to write a sticky-note reminder to that effect. It would have gone nicely with the other sticky notes on my planner, some two months old, saying similar things.
The post I imagined would be fewer than 600 words. I can draft 700 words in twenty minutes, edit it down to size in nine more, post it in one minute, and be done within half an hour. Then, having published it, I'd be even more motivated to do the work.
I also need a few guidelines and think better when I write them down like this:
- Only three things can be left for later and each must be nailed to a date and time in my planner.
- My desk must be clear down to the wood. I write better with the mess of only one project before me.
- The clearing will take no more than half an hour.
- Anything left at the end of the half hour goes in the bin even if it's a check, a note from my wife, or a Van Gogh.
There are forces telling me to get going now or never. My wife was saying as much on our morning walk. I'm fifty and have been writing for three decades with little to show. I can't go on that way. That's not a good enough life.
What are you gonna do?

There are numerous non-prescription acne cleansers, astringents, moisturizers and pimple creams available at local drug stores. Some help unplug whiteheads and blackheads while others help encourage the skin to shed. It's important to use all products as directed. Many experts recommend giving over-the-counter products no more than six to eight weeks to work. If there is no improvement in acne during that time period, a dermatologist may be seen to explore other treatment options. Many over-the-counter products are available in stronger "prescription only" formulas.
Salicylic Acid: Salicylic acid is a mild acid that encourages the sloughing of dead skin cells. Buy encouraging the peeling of the top layer of skin and the opening of plugged follicles. It works best to treat mild acne, oily skin, textural changes and hyperpigmention of the skin. Salicylic acid is thought to be much milder than Benzoyl Peroxide.
Antibiotics: If you suffer from moderate to severe acne, your doctor may prescribe a combination of topical acne treatment and oral antibiotics. The most common antibiotics used to treat acne are tetracycline, minocycline, doxycycline and erythromycin. They work by slowing the body's production of the bacteria that causes acne and decreasing inflammation. This is very much a long term acne treatment and results may not be evident for a number of months.
Oral Contraceptives: For some women, acne is caused by excessive production of hormones called androgens that kick their oil-producing glands into high gear. Adult women and teenage girls whose acne does not respond to treatment with antibiotics or retinoids like Retin-A Micro, may want to try hormonal therapy.
Vitamin A Derivatives: These retinoid medications prevent skin cells from clumping together and encourage shedding. Usually applied once a day, these medications can increase sensitivity to the sun, so it's important that patients use sunscreen. Other side effects can include dryness, redness and irritation. Common Vitamin A derivatives include Retin-A, Differin and Tazorac. One particular retinoid, Accutane, has been shown to cause more serious side effects, including psychological disorders and, in rare cases, birth defects. Sexually active women who take this medication must use contraception during treatment and have monthly lab work performed.

Burgers and Pizza Battle it Out in Las Vegas/
Ah, the ole pizza/burger debate. Both such great American classics – guilty pleasures, if you will. But which one rules the land of Las Vegas? For the record, we're not talking just any ordinary burger or slice. In Vegas, where everything is larger than life and celebrity chefs reign supreme, there is no room for "ordinary."
Gordon Ramsay, Mario Batali, and later this year, Bobby Flay with his Bobby's Burger Palace, are all names that pop into mind around the Vegas burger segment. There's no doubt, between casino restaurant offerings and the Strip, that burgers ruled 2013. But with new pizza additions on the scene, will it take over this year? Read More

Formal launch
Monday, Feb 6
Enter to win a free copy on my contact page at
Yes, I've written a novel. In fact I've written 3.3 novels. The point three is for the one in progress.
What prompted this frenzy of activity, the hours hunched over a keyboard, the rewrite after rewrite, and the attendance at three writing conferences and various workshops, not to mention all the seminars and all the reading about writing?
Ages ago, I lived in Mali, at that time the fifth poorest country in the world. Every moment of every day, I wished… Hey! There was an idea. I could write a book about the Mali I always wanted to see, about waving a magic wand to make it so. Of course, I'd have to throw in a little (or a lot of) hot sex and romance too. Maybe a fight or three, a little sci-fi time-travel stuff, or a fairy godmother, or… The possibilities were endless.
And so it began. Little did I know that "the book" would take over my life. When I finally finished the first novel (although it seems one could revise forever), I was so attached to my characters that I couldn't leave them behind.
And so it continued. Book two morphed into book three and that morphed into book four—the 0.3 I mentioned earlier. Right now I intend book four to be the "happily ever after" ending, but I'm not precluding a book five or even six. An author never knows what her characters may demand of her.

Lock Ridge Park: The Dean Family
Taking pictures of Brent, Molly, Clara and Connor is always a pleasure. Adding a few extra Deans into the mix is even more fun! Molly was the coordinator of this session and deserves huge props! Though everyone lives relatively close together, she was able to coordinate very busy schedules, outfits, and timing to make this photo shoot happen. Way harder than it sounds!
I was so happy that everyone was able to travel to Lock Ridge Park in Alburtis to get priceless family pictures. I feel like we, meaning everyone, is getting better and better about having family picture done, but very rarely do people get pictures of their extended families. What a precious gift to have these relationships and images to last a lifetime.
Getting this group together in their pictures was seamless. They literally fell into place and had genuine happy smiles. It was so relaxing and fun. And any time I'm editing with a smile on my face, you know it's a good thing!
The Deans are a really special group. Something that makes them even more special is their little guy Connor. His happy spirit is infectious, he's courageous and so strong on so many levels. I'd love for you to read more about his very special story here. It's heart warming, uplifting, and humbling.
Thank you so much for coming to see me again, Dean Family! It was great meeting the rest of you. Enjoy your images!
If you'd like to schedule a family session, please contact me! I can't wait to hear from you.

The cheese puffs Cal makes are divine but have 70 calories a piece so are decadent! I love them.
Joe was here the other day and mixed my batter for fruit cakes. It was still a lot for me considering my numbness and weakness in my left arm and have had some increase in pain. Entirely worth it and Joe helped a lot so it's not as bad as it might have been. This photo is just after baking. Now wrapped and soaked with brandy and Grand Marnier. No dry tasteless fruitcake at our house! Full of currants and raisins and cherries and light on the citron and orange peel. Lots of good spices and sugar and all my little extras like chocolate!
Saw the folk from work on Tuesday at a colleague's retirement party and felt sad yesterday. I miss work. I do not miss the extra pain or having my arm hanging helplessly by my side at the end of the day. I do miss my patients and the good folk I worked with in Stockton.
I have a wonderful family and a lot of help at home so I can deal with my disability. Today I reflect on my blessings and my mood is much improved.
There is something wonderful about enjoying ones home and being able to rest when needed. I find a good night's sleep one of the best things in my life right now. My brother (14 months younger) died so suddenly a few weeks ago and it has made me aware once again of how fragile life can be, how rich each momentary pleasure. The beauty of a flower, the song of a bird, the warmth of the sun - all, too precious. I know now just how frenetic my life was before this set back and while I cannot think a sore and rather useless left arm is anything I'd wish for anyone else, it is a gift for me.
I am a bit anxious about the future; today, at least, I'm reminding myself to live in the moment and be happy.

Carrots, aubergines, strawberries, lemons, potatoes, lentils. Climate change will modify the quality of numerous food products in the next decades, according to an Australian study<\/a>, published in March by the Melbourne Sustainable Society Institute, in collaboration with WWF. The research shows how the taste of some fruits and vegetables will significantly change<\/b> due to temperature rise. In the meanwhile, extreme weather events will jeopardise some cultivations, resulting in rare and expensive products.<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
Apples<\/b>\u00a0are an example of this. They are particularly sensitive to hot weather during ripening: only 10 minutes of exposition to extreme heat conditions can cause burns on the peel, shows the report. In august 2013, a Japanese study published by the scientific magazine Scientific Reports<\/a> focused on this fruit, showing that rising temperatures will lead to an early blossoming of trees, with direct effects on sourness, textural attributes and the presence of sugar in apples.<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
Pineapple<\/strong> plantations, in Australia mainly located along the northern coasts of Queensland, could be affected by repeated devastations due to storms, as happened with hurricane Yasi in 2011. The pollination period of blueberries<\/b> could be reduced, whilst cabbages<\/b>, which need fresh conditions to grow, could reduce the ripening period to only one month by 2030. Carrots<\/b> could change their taste, solidity and structure; the production of dairy products<\/b> could drop, as well as that of honey<\/b>.<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
Lemon<\/b> trees could advance the appearance of fruits, limiting their harvest. Maize<\/b>, grain<\/b> and tomatoes<\/b> plantations will be affected by water shortages. Strawberries<\/b>, lemons<\/b>, turnips<\/b>, lentils<\/b> and chickpeas<\/b> will have agricultural outcomes way lower than the current ones, and will be threatened by the onset of several diseases.<\/p>\n
 <\/p>\n
The study is mainly focused on Australia, but as we all know, the problem affects the entire world. The FAO<\/a>, in fact, has highlighted over and over again the consequences of climate change on hunger<\/b>, malnutrition<\/b>, and food security<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Phone: (02) 9090 2824
Address: 3/6 Manning Road, Double Bay NSW
On Valentines day my husband and I visited the beautiful Bump Day Spa , where we were treated to their Babymoon Package, an absolutely blissful 2.5 hr experience that consisted of a foot and leg bath, full body massage and a facial!
All of the spa's treatments use completely organic products, so there's no nasties, this is something that is really appealing to me as I am super conscious of what I apply to my skin, particularly during pregnancy.
From the moment you step into the spa you immediately feel the relaxing and peaceful ambience that they have created. We were greeted with a refreshing drink and then stripped off into their gorgeous blush pink linen robes! I found this quite amusing to see my husband in one of these.
The treatment began with their feet and leg ritual which was so relaxing. Then it was time for the massage, both mine and Neil's massage treatments were personalised, tailored to our needs and focusing on certain areas that were requiring extra attention.
Having a massage therapist that specialises in pregnancy massage is very reassuring as they know the pressure points to avoid and it's obviously a lot safer. I had been experiencing some rather painful sciatica down my right side making laying in certain positions for extended periods quite uncomfortable but thankfully the massage therapist was completely aware of the adjustments that she had to make to make me feel comfortable.
Neil's treatment was a bit more of a guy's treatment with a deep tissue massage, a facial and a good old back scrub.
The 2.5 hrs flew by with both of us drifting in and out of consciousness. This was actually the first time I had ever fallen asleep during a massage, I was just so completely relaxed that I couldn't keep my eyes open.
Following the treatment we were invited to sit in the lounge area and enjoy a pot of herbal tea and some healthy snacks, like chocolate coated ginger and nuts, some of my favourite things!
My husband and are't the most romantic couple so this was something really special for us to do together. It was so nice for us to take some time out, just the two of us without Sunny before our next little one comes along
I am certainly not going to wait until I am pregnant again to visit, this is something that I could see myself indulging in pregnant or not. What I really look forward to is going back and trying their post-natal package once this bubba is born and I can reward myself and my body for all that hard work and be able to escape for a couple hours.

Can Polygamy Solve the Racial Divide?
One of the unspoken truths about race in this country is that the average IQ for Blacks is about 15 points lower than for Whites. (The standard Gaussian curve does not fit perfectly, of course, but it is a good enough fit for about 95% of both groups.)
Current studies suggest somewhere between 50% and 70% heritability for IQ — meaning that about 50-70% of one's IQ depends on the IQ of your parents. There is, naturally, some environmental factors — such as whether your parents read to you as a child, and your home life in general.
There are structural problem for Blacks in our society today. Minimum Wage laws price many Black youths out of the labor market, so they can never reach that bottom rung of the economic ladder and start their climb. The democrat-run inner-city schools are a joke. Our criminal justice system is not race-blind. (The jury should never know the name, sex, or race of the accused. Justice really should be blind.) These government-imposed problems prevent Black men from attaining the ability to support a family. But the God-given biological drive to reproduce is still there — so they do. But the government will take away benefits from a woman who marries the father of her children. So the government makes the "spread your seed far and wide" strategy better for many Blacks (from a propagation of one's genes perspective) than a "keep your eggs in one nest and guard it vigilantly" strategy. This, of course, perpetuates some of the problems of the Black community.
So what if polygamy were legal?
If polygamy were legal, many Black women might choose to marry a successful (intelligent) Black man who already has a wife or two. Than man could be having children with younger wives well into his 60′s and 70′s. Not only would this propagate his better genes, but those children would grow up in a better household than they would as the children of less intelligent men in single-parent households.
Furthermore, the less-intelligent men would not be reproducing with those women. Win-win.
Over time, we might see that IQ gap close considerably.

Variety Parades On King William
Alana Trezise
Yesterday saw the first official event of the Adelaide Fashion Festival come to life, in the form of Variety on King William. Throughout the day, the parades showcased the latest spring/summer fashion trends from retailers along the King William Road shopping strip, the sun was shining, the local wines were flowing and the food was to-die-for.
The day began with a garden party for VIPs and guests, before the public were invited in the alfresco dining area alongside the main catwalk.
Whilst everyone was being seated, we had the opportunity to head backstage, have a chat to the models and get a sense of what was to come throughout the day. The models and behind the scenes personnel were excited for what was to come, and the clothing lined up for the day was simply ah-may-zing. With retailers such as Denim & Cloth, Wild Child, Designer Exchange, Muse Boutique and Liza Emanuele, Vareity on KWR guests were in for a treat.
Find more BTS photos here.
The parades began just after 1pm, with the food heading out to guests soon after. The menu comprised of a delicious four course, spring menu, made with local produce and matched with SA wines. While guests were enjoying their meals, the parade went off without a hitch - showcasing clothing from the many different retailers along the strip.
This spring season, colour is in. The runway was lined with colour and patterns, ranging from far-out-that's-bright to just a pop of colour here and there. Dresses and skirts are well and truly dominating pants and shorts for the ladies, whilst the men are in for a more relaxed yet ultra chic trend this season, pairing patterned shirts with a simple coloured short.
All in all, the Adelaide Fashion Festival's Variety on King William parades were a hit. For more photos and social snaps of the day, check out our Facebook page.
Hosted by the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters and The Parade, Norwood, the 2014 Adelaide Fashion Festival will be held over an exciting nine day program, for the full program and dates have a look at our guide, and keep up to date with all things AFF with us!

Valentine's Day is the kick start to our love affair with spring flowers. The market is filled with the early arrivals of spring's most beautiful blooms - dainty fritillaria, cheering daffodils, sweet peas in every hue.
Deep into the December staples of evergreen wreaths and paper whites, we began daydreaming about using our spring favorites again. Layers upon layers of color and texture, from the twiggy branches of spiraea and speckled breadseed poppy to the velvet petals of ranunculus and roses.
We loved the idea of taking our layering one step further for our Valentine's Day offerings. Taking cues from antique wallpaper patterns, we pulled printed tissue papers in with our favorite gingham tea towels from Heather Taylor Home to create bouquets with a sweet warmth and vibrance.
Happy Valentine's Day to you and your sweetheart, too. We hope you love these bouquets as much as we do.

While I don't begrudge certain young celebrities for their endorsement power, it's frustrating when young, impressionable girls go to great, and sometimes harmful, lengths to look like said starlets. Such is the case with the #KylieJennerLipChallege, where you use a shot glass and suction to plump your lips.
And, like any trend, full, pouty lips have become the biggest craze since strobing or full brows. While I've discussed how to make your lips appear larger with makeup, that method takes quite a bit of time and requires several touch-ups.
So I tried a lip-plumping tool, which I Instagrammed (@ElectraLane) several weeks ago:
Since then, I've tried using this device, which declares that it not only plumps your lips but works out the muscles around your mouth to reduce smile lines. It did neither.
In fact, the last time I used it, it actually bruised my lips:
The lighting isn't great, but IRL it looked like I had just downed a few glasses of red wine.
So, short of fillers or implants, what's a good solution that doesn't take 38 steps or a PhD in makeup?
Shading is like contouring in that it crates shadows, but it's far less involved. I've created a quick instructional video, but basically, you line your lips with bronzer. It takes a little practice and the right product shade, but because it's powder, it stays on and looks far more natural than a lip liner.
Let's be honest - our lips are just fine the way they are. But, if you do want to give the illusion of fuller lips like I often do, I hope you give shading a chance. The other options simply are #NOTWorthIt.

All I ask is that the house be clean.....
I have come to the unavoidable conclusion that perhaps they have too many things to play with. I am beginning to dread the Christmas holidays knowing that even more toys will come. I have started to sort through their toys to find the ones rarely played with or that are broken or missing pieces. The broken or incomplete ones will be tossed out. The ones in good condition need to go. I think we will have a garage sale if I ever can find a free weekend with good weather to hold one. Still other toys I think will be moved into storage in the basement to be rotated upstairs periodically. Perhaps if they have less toys to play with they will be better able to keep them clean.
I dream of a day when I will be able to walk through a room without needing to step over toys, and to be able to simply turn the vacuum on and clean the carpet without needing to ask the kids to pick their stuff up for the 100th time that day. Is it really so much to ask????

Hi! I am your newest follower. I remember the days when my kids were little and I had the same problem. Now they are all grown up and have kids of their own and about once a week, I still have the same problem. But I have to admit, that if the grandkids don't pick up, usually the parents do. LOL!!ReplyDelete

Pictures of the Week Episode# 14
Hey everyone! Sorry for the previous episode, if you know how superstitious I am, you'll understand. I can't believe New Year's is coming so soon! It's been a wonderful year, and I think this week's episode will conclude this year because the next episode will be in... 2014! Time just flies, you know? Well, here goes this episode!
So I've been working on a tiny dragon for a CAL (Crochet A Long) on Ravelry, and I had to make my own pattern. I used Knit Picks Palette Yarn in Sagebrush and a 2.25 mm crochet hook. I made the main part of the body in one piece and sew on the appendages and details later. Seaming, for me, takes a long time. The head is the top part of the piece in the picture at the end. What I made today looks sort of like a music note, don't you think?
By the way, I'm a HUGE Harry Potter fan, so I was watching Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone today! It just came on, so of course, I was watching it! I personally think the books are better than the movies, but the movies aren't that bad, they just are a different perspective on how I see it. If you know about Harry Potter, remember Baby Norbert, the Norwegian Dragon? Well, I saw it hatch; I think it's good for inspiration for the dragon! Well, Happy New Year in advanced! Thanks for watching Pictures of the Week!

This is an older theater - no reclining seats - but still good place to catch a film.
In downtown San Mateo where it is convenient for most people to watch a movie if they do not want to drive far. This place have 12 small theaters hence their name.
What I particularly like about this place is the open space they have in front entrance of the theatre with mural painting on the wall and benches to sit down.
Check this place if you are in the area after a dinner or a quick drink. Cheers!
I can't stand this theater. It isn't that old, but it hasn't been well maintained at ALL! I always go to the Century Theaters in Redwood City instead.
Generally small is cozy... here, not so much...
Dont like this place too much, it's just that the place is small.
Though they are situated next to a great pizza place and across from a pleasant night club... as you can imagine finding parking is difficult unless you dont mind walking the distance to the local garage parks.
Pretty crappy movie theater, but there's isn't much choice in San Mateo.

Bollywood Cinema
Temples of Desire
- $42.99
- $42.99
Publisher Description
India is home to Bollywood - the largest film industry in the world. Movie theaters are said to be the "temples of modern India," with Bombay producing nearly 800 films per year that are viewed by roughly 11 million people per day. In Bollywood Cinema, Vijay Mishra argues that Indian film production and reception is shaped by the desire for national community and a pan-Indian popular culture. Seeking to understand Bollywood according to its own narrative and aesthetic principles and in relation to a global film industry, he views Indian cinema through the dual methodologies of postcolonial studies and film theory. Mishra discusses classics such as Mother India (1957) and Devdas (1935) and recent films including Ram Lakhan (1989) and Khalnayak (1993), linking their form and content to broader issues of national identity, epic tradition, popular culture, history, and the implications of diaspora.
Drawing on postcolonial and film theory, Vijay Mishra (The Gothic Sublime), a professor of English and Comparative Literature at Australia's Murdoch University, sees Indian cinema as an effort to cut across the country's numerous communities and achieve a pan-Indian culture. In Bollywood Cinema: Temples of Desire, Mishra explores film from Bombay in light of national and international cultural and aesthetic proclivities, including the prevalence of epics, the relegation of female actors to supporting roles, film representations of the Indian diaspora and sexual subtexts in the Indian gothic. Always sticking close to the countless films themselves (e.g. Mother India, Kismet, Zanjeer) and other texts (fanzines, a Salman Rushdie novel, film reviews), Mishra offers an erudite, scholarly and hip tribute to Indian cinema in all its glory, folly and abundance. 38 b&w photos.

Review: FEED by M.T. Anderson/
I finished reading FEED by M.T. Anderson this weekend, so now I'm going to talk about it. (I did not talk about it in the paper I was assigned to write about it, because it was due Monday, I finished reading it Sunday, and this book gets sad.) After the fold, there will be spoilers. As a consolation, before the fold, there will be a video in which John Green hangs out with M.T. Anderson in abandoned buildings.
Oh my god this book got so sad.
As a general rule of thumb, I prefer what I would describe as Aspirational fiction; fiction that depicts a better possible world, whose main characters act the way one hopes one would in a difficult time. Cory Doctorow's books are often aspirational, featuring characters who fight against the injustices they see in the world. In the same way, I think 1984 was aspirational -- Winston is the highest standard of moral and intellectual integrity one could expect to see in a world like the world of IngSoc in the year 1984.
FEED is not aspirational. The best character in FEED is a mildly emotionally manipulative teenager, who utterly fails to make any substantial change in the world, and who, by the end, slowly dies, literally killed by the feed. The next-best character, the viewpoint character, is just-barely-above consciousness in the fugue state of consumerism the feed seeks to produce. He has the potential to take a moral stand, and try, at least a little bit, to value the life of another human above his own immediate comfort, but he fails. It's understandable that he fails. He lives in a setting that is, in every way, stacked against him. But his failure is a failure to try, unlike Winston's failure to overcome the obstacles in 1984.
FEED does, to be fair, take place in the grimmest possible future for humanity, and it couldn't possibly be that grim if people like Titus were capable of overcoming the seduction of short-term pleasure. Fortunately, in the real world, when things start to look like they're going that direction, people like M.T. Anderson write books like FEED and warn us away from the existential cliffs.
This is a really, really god book, and I think it's also an important book. I'm glad I was made to read it. But, seriously, I can't imagine deliberately inflicting the last quarter of this book on someone else without at least warning them first.

The Association of Senior Staff of Banks, Insurance and Financial Institutions (ASSBIFI) has urged the World Bank to adopt a comprehensive labour standard lending requirement in its institutions like those adopted by other multilateral development banks. The Association said that this would correct the major weaknesses in the draft labour safeguard that was recently issued for consultation.
ASSBIFI's National President, Comrade Sunday Olusoji Salako, who made the disclosures to newsmen in Lagos while reviewing the labour standard version proposed for protecting the rights of those who work in bank-financed projects, stressed the need for the World Bank President, Jim Yong Kim, to ensure that the proposal would be to all intents and purposes and not exist only on paper.
He said: "The intention of the World Bank to adopt a labour safeguard is a welcome development, but we call for the version proposed would have almost no impact in protecting the rights of those who work in bank-financed projects alone, but would be to all intents apply to contracted workers, to public servants and not purposes exist only on paper"
According to Salako, an important feature of all of the other banks' labour safeguards in the past has been their application to contractors and sub-contractors, thus ensuring coverage of a category of workers that is highly vulnerable to exploitation and abuse. "The World Bank President, by proposing to not protect these workers in its projects, the Bank will perpetuate instances of unsafe working conditions, child labour, unpaid wages and denial of freedom of association that we have seen in bank-funded projects," he said.
He emphasised that the major weakness of the World Bank's draft labour safeguard is the proposal that the International Labour Organisation (ILO's) core labour standards only be fully complied with if they are incorporated in national law.
"Specifically, the freedom of association and right to collective bargaining provisions would apply only where national law recognises them, thus opening the door to retaliatory measures by project managers against workers who wish to exercise those rights.
"We fully hope and expect that the World Bank will catch up to the labour standard provisions adopted by the other development finance institutions over the past years, and not undermine the progress that has been made by adopting a labour safeguard that is full of exemptions and exclusions," he further said.
