Now this is important to remember... the views expressed on this blog are my own and are not the opinion of anyone else (although you may or may not agree with my assessment of a particular writer or book). I'm one of those awful teachers you had in high school or college who just couldn't bring herself to give an A+ unless perhaps you could quote Shakespeare, whilst standing on your head, holding tea filled china saucers and cups in each hand and on your toe tips (pointing to the ceiling of course) ready for handy reference the complete works of the Bard in case you needed to refresh your memory.
Perhaps I am not quite that bad....
Swanson, James, L. Manhunt: The 12 Day Chase for Lincoln's Killer ***top notch writing & history – details that are unbelievable!
Mnookin, Seth Feeding the Monster: How Money, Smarts, and Nerve Took a Team to the Top ****well researched & written account of the Red Sox from the purchase of the team in '03-05 & how it came together for the 2004 world series win. Great behind the scenes info on the owners, gm, players, how stats were relied upon for trades, etc. Just a great sports book – one of a kind)
Goldstone, Nancy Four Queens: The Provencal Sisters Who Ruled Europe,**** A beautifully written history that is so fascinating it reads like a novel about four sisters, a clever mother and ambition matched by success. It was the time of knights, crusades, kings, and troubadours in medieval Europe. Each sister made a brilliant match marrying some of the most powerful men of their time, surviving wars, crusades, and rebellions. Their stories are interwoven in the fabric of the thirteenth century. Family disputes over dowries (how many times can a father promise the same castles?), triumphs, heartaches and petty jealousies as they grew into powerful women (all actually became queens) are all duly noted. How they raised families, formed political and social alliances and lasting impact on the times is also explored in detail. Nancy Goldstone writes with heart and makes the sisters stories a fascinating miniseries of thirteenth century life.
Cohn, Johnathan Sick: The Untold Story of America's Health Care Crisis and the People Who Pay the Price***Traces the history of health insurance as well as stories of average Americans who didn't receive care they needed due to lack of insurance or "denials' of care by their hmo's etc….
Herman, Eleanor Sex With The Queen: 900 Years of Vile Kings, Virile Lovers and Passionate Politics***(great read, entertaining, historical info on princesses & queens stepping outside the royal marital bed and the effects on their marriages and countries)
Lerner, Michael The Left Hand of God: Taking Back Our Country from the Religious Right ***1/2 Well written (basically essays) that address various issues related to "current state of faith in government." And then looks at an eight point plan to bring a new spiritual covenant to America that addresses the needs of our country including healthcare, poverty, etc.
Abbott, Karen, Sin in the Second City: Madams, Ministers, Playboys, and the Battle for America's Soul.***1/2 Interesting read about Chicago's Levee nee "RED Light" district home of the famous Everleigh Club. (Men said they were going to get "everleighed" that night – it eventually got shortened and that is where we now say… "laid") The fashionable, questionable, business savvy Everleigh sisters, Minna and Aida(Ada) set up what arguably was the most famous brothel in America with fabulous rooms, a "Pullman buffet," and thirty "butterflies to entertain gentlemen callers – after they learned Balzac and poetry per the sisters wishes. It was at the Everleigh club were the "drinking champagne out of a lady's slipper" started when during a special evening entertainment for Prince Henry of Prussia, one of the butterfly's accidentally lost her shoe and it collided with a champagne bottle…(pg. 76…Some of the liquor spilled into the shoe and a …man …scooped it up…"The darling mustn't get her feet wet,", …without further comment he drained the champagne from the shoe and tossed it back to it's owner…Prince Henry's entire entourage rose , yanked a slipper from the nearest girl and hled it aloft. Waiters…hurriedly filling each shoe with champagne…"Fascinating, fun and also in some parts sobering because many madams didn't have "willing": girls, there was white slavery, horrible abuse, etc. And so we learn about how all of this came to a halt and about the sisters before and after lives
Saunders, Nicholas Alexander's Tomb***1/2 Tells the story of Alexander's death, his many burials, mummification, how his generals used him after his death for their own advancement (literally and figuratively), his reburials, speculation about his final resting place and what it would mean if his tomb were actually found. Was he buried in Venice in place of St. Mark? Well written and absolutely intriguing for any history fan.
Rich, Frank The Greatest Story Ever Sold : The Decline and Fall of Truth from 9/11 to Katrina ***1/2 Scathing look at the Bush years and its lack of credibility with the American public and the world at large. How "we" took world sympathy from 9/11 and destroyed it through lies, war with Iraq and then the travesty of Katrina's feeble "rescue" attempts - - reads like a fictional presidency – hard to believe it could happen in the USA
Kamp, David The United States of Arugula: How We Became a Gourmet Nation *** (fun read on the culinary tastes of American mainly after WWII rise of Julia Child, James Beard, "Dean and DeLuca" celeb chefs, organic foods, imported foodstuffs, French cooking, etc. Some of the stories are too funny and almost hard to believe!)
Mueller, John Overblown: How Politicians and the Terrorism Industry Inflate National; Security Threats and Why We Believe Them***1/2 well written and makes you really stop and think how much money we are wasting and time spent worrying over this entire terrorism threat and how many people have died in this fruitless war. Thought provoker – everyone should HAVE to read this book.
Crosby, Molly Caldwell The American Plague: The Untold Story of Yellow Fever The Epidemic that Shaped Our History*** fascinating look at the history of this disease and people like Walter Reed, but most fascinating was what happened to Memphis, Tn and how it shaped the destiny of this city when an epidemic hit –
Patterson, Benton Rain With the Heart of a King: Elizabeth I of England, Philip II of Spain, and the Fight for a Nation's Soul and Crown *** Well written and fascinating historical read about Elizabeth I & Philip II, their relationship, battles over religion (including inquisition –and so many details I suspect most poeople have never heard before about what went on in the courts of these two as they battled politically over their religious disputes)..Also showed the human sides of these two – their childhood years and the impact it had on each, the advisors they had, the battle with the Armada (great story about Cervantes having been aboard and one of the few to return alive to Spain and to eventually write Don Quite), other great tidbits like Frncis Drake landing ini Marin Co. Ca in mid 1500's and leaving a few folks to start a small settlement "New Albion" (New England" but secretly so Spain would not find out… The story about the Netherlands and their "revolt" over the inquisition and Spain is really interesting too… How different our world would be if Spain had won these battles… and … the Protestant reformation had been quenched

I wasn't quite sure what I'd be getting when I saw this book. It looks elegant, regal, elevated…and intimidating. Did I even know there were 35 types of cuisine that came from China? I don't even think you can call what most restaurants serve in the United States authentic Chinese cuisine, so do I even know what Chinese food is about? That may be why I don't eat it that much.
As written in the description, "Carolyn Phillips has written a spirited, symphonic love letter to the flavors and textures of Chinese cuisine." Just this simple description made this book appealing and necessary to own for any cookbook fanatic. She's also drawn on ancient culinary texts, as well as her own experience.
The book is divided into the regions of China like The Arid Lands, The Central Highlands, and The Coastal Southeast. It is good to note that even the author recognizes that this book is not an encyclopedia or even a book claiming to include everything about Chinese cuisine. Rather, it is a place to start and for those who aren't privileged to visit China or experience the vast array of cuisines, you will find a little bit of everything here.
For reference, a map of the mentioned regions is included at the beginning of each chapter, as well as a small description of what makes each region unique and how their geography relates to their cuisine. Right after that is a recipe index that is separated into categories. I find this quite helpful after you've gone through the book and need to go back and find a recipe again, especially if you're looking for a specific soup, side dish, entree, etc.
Certain recipes contain her tips, pertinent information regarding specific ingredients or processes, and lessons like scoring fish or making lotus leaf buns. The recipes are not very intimidating even for the cook who is unfamiliar with Chinese cuisine and cooking. The ingredients are not particularly obscure (depending on your location). If you have a Chinese/Asian market nearby, you will most likely not have an issue.
Now, speaking of Chinese/Asian stores. Phillips has thought of everything. If you've ever been in an asian market (and you don't read/speak any language with characters), you'll know how difficult it can be to find what you need. She has put a glossary explaining the different ingredients as well as the characters and names you will need to know to find them at any store. I love a good buying guide to help me out. It makes attempting recipes I've never had much less daunting.
And even better than that, she's included menu options, divided by region. Not only has she included menus for groups of 4 (the usual crowd), but banquets for 6-8 and even family dinner options. It makes getting started a little bit easier and once you've attempted a few of these, you can get creative and combine your own dishes to make a meal.
Because there are so many recipes to mention, I'll give you a few I'm looking forward to trying out (and hopefully you'll want to try a few too!):
- Braised prawns (I'm a sucker for seafood)
- Shoabing – a favorite breakfast in northern China
- Rice pearl and Tangerine Petal Sweet Soup
- Lotus Leaf Eight Treasure Rice
- Flower Mushroom Soup
- Meaty Bone Soup
- Blanched Squid with Garlicky Dipping Sauce
- Sweet Coconut Soup
- Hong Kong Milk Tea
- Peng Family Bean Curd
- Cod with Crispy Bean Sauce
- Smoked Whole Fish Hunan Style (husband is a big whole fish fan)
- Lanzhou Beef Noodle Soup
- Buddha's Hand Rolls (think stuffed omelet)
- Eight Treasure Tea
There are so many more, but I think I'll start with these and get my husband on the wagon. If you're adventurous, there are recipes for that. You'll also find lots of soups and dishes that involve chicken and pork.
Overall, I find this book a treasure to own and a wealth of information for those who like to know how certain foods come to be and how cultures influence them. Though there aren't any food-styled photos, the names are enough to grab you while the descriptions bring you all the way in.
If you're a novice, it'll be an adventure. If you're a seasoned chef/Chinese food enjoyer/lover, you'll be right at home. There is something quite special about "All Under Heaven" and you might just find a little piece of heaven inside it.

I received this book for free from Blogging for Books in exchange for an honest and unbiased review.

The other day I was talking to someone younger than me about Lil' Wayne. I let them know that Lil' Wayne making a rock album was the stupidest idea ever. They responded with saying "but Kanye did a album where he only sung for the whole time, so way can't Lil' Wayne do the same?"
WTF that doesn't even make sense to compare the two situations/albums. Lil' Wayne doing rock would be comparable to Kanye West doing an all reaggeaton album.

When i was suffering from PND, my health visitor declared she didn't understand and wasn't trained in this field and she walked out of our life, She had left a vulnerable child with a suicidal mother and the whole situation is scandalous! Tilly was barely 6 months old and since that day i have never had a HV to check up on her, i never had it queried when she never attended any of her 18 month check ups or had sight tests.
I had made the decision that as the HV team had let me down, I didn't need their input into Tillys life and progress. We were very alone untill Home-Start knocked on the door. I met David and he explained how the scheme worked and that there was a group I could attend on a thursday morning, This would give me something to focus on every week and something for me to get up for on a thursday morning. When i first started to go, I was so quiet and didn't talk to anyone, infact I hated going! but i persevered and ending up going for nearly 4 years.
With Home Start there is always someone to there to talk to, whether they are a volunteer or a paid member of staff because these people have walked in our shoes and they know how you feel. Recently I heard a Home-Start volunteer on TV saying she helps 'Vulnerable families', personally I don't like that label, but they do help families that need a little bit of extra support and need someone to listen. They dont judge you and they help you along the way. They pick you up when you fall and if there is anything you need, whether advice or a voucher for the local food bank, they will try their hardest to help you.
So the reason for the post is that I met some lovely ladies from Home-start at The Handmade Fair and they explained to me about the Snowflake Appeal.
Kirstie Allsopp is a big supporter of Home-Start. She says 'Children and families are like snowflakes - unique and fragile. The Snowflake Appeal is a brilliant metaphor for the way Home-start helps people. This is an amazing organisation- on the ground, helping people. If you want to help anyone in the UK, Home-start is the best way to do it' - I think she really sums it up!
So to help with fundraising please pop over to the website to see how you can donate by buying a snowflake lapel badge or to get free downloadable fundraising packs. Or you can simply text SNOW04 to 70070.
The website is www.snowflake.org.uk.

You many have a zillion friends, but siblings are irreplaceable. Having scribbled a few lines on the substance of friendship already, I stand to distinguish the thin line between the two wonderful relationships.
For starters, both are very important to me and I hold immense regard for both the associations. For all those people out there, who think friends are greater than brothers and sisters, please continue to do so, I am not here to do a conversion.
Most of us treat our siblings as punching bags. How often can you yell at your friends, kick them, and boss them around. My study says that the frequencies of the above actions are much more with your brothers & sisters than with your friends. Secondly, how often do you heed your sibling's suggestion, advice or requests, my points would go for friends in this instance. All this and more... By virtue of a common childhood, common room and of course common parents, our blood bonds are taken as contracted. Without discounting their importance in our lives we have an uncanny liberty towards their emotions and feelings. There are no sorry's, apologies in a blood contract, whereas you're taxed with a sorry for a single howler with your friend.
The driver, here is that no matter what, there are numerous chances that you can have with your brothers and sisters, but there are very limited with your friends. This is not to say that pals are less important. We are humans, and humans have ego. Ego centric people, can never enjoy either relationship to the fullest, you need to forsake your ego at some point.
If someone was to ask me, I'd say that both parties play an influential role in one's life. I try to balance between both, keeping a simple logic in mind, that you can make friend out of a sibling, but can't make a sibling out of a friend.

Out in my backyard is a rock the size and shape of a large tortoise shell. Years ago, back in Indiana, my grandfather balanced it on another rock about 4 feet high, and there it remained for decades until my mother took it off.
Aghast at her action, I maneuvered it into my trunk and took it to Chicago. Later, I would tell moving men that one box might be a little heavy. ``What have you got in here, lady, a rock?`` Actually, it was a little bit of home.

UFC 220: Miocic vs. Ngannou from the TD Garden in Boston. The card is headlined with heavyweight champion Stipe Miocic defending his title against Francis Ngannou.
Gold is also on the line in the co-main event as light heavyweight titleholder Daniel Cormier takes on challenger Volkan Oezdemir. Gian Villante, Thomas Almeida and Rob Font are other bigger names who will be fighting on the main card. The main card airs live on pay-per-view at 10 p.m. ET.
"UFC Embedded" provides an all-access, behind-the-scenes look at the top fighters on the card as they prepare for their championship bouts on Saturday night.
Cormier (19-1) was last seenign suffering a violent defeat to Jon Jones at UFC 214, lsoing his 205-pound title in the process.
This will be Oezdemir's fourth UFC fight, with the Swiss pro representing a threat in the stand-up, having ended his last two fights in just 70 seconds combined. Miocic aims to make his third consecutive title defense. He won the belt with a knockout win over Fabricio Werdum at UFC 198.
Below, you can find all the streaming and viewing information you need as well as the full official UFC 220 fight card.
The prelims will be televised from 12pm (AEDT) on Fox Sports, Channel 505.
This past summer, UFC 214 was supposed to feature a featherweight tilt between Andre "Touchy" Fili and the surging "Korean Super Boy" Dooho Choi had everyone talking. However, a few weeks prior to the event, Choi suffered an injury, forcing him out of the bout. With still almost a month to go before fight night, the public consensus was that the UFC would easily be able to find another big name opponent for the Team Alpha Male product to take on.
Inexplicably, days turned to weeks, and still there was still no announcement. When UFC newcomer, and relative unknown, Calvin Kattar's name was finally announced just a handful of days prior to the event, most who followed the sport rolled their eyes. They had all seen it before; a young up-and-comer being brought in on short notice, ill-prepared for the beating they were about to receive.
On July 29th, 2o17 at UFC 214 in Anaheim, California, Massachusetts's Calvin Kattar (17-2, 1-0 UFC) spoiled the narrative on national television. Coming into the fight as a sizable underdog, Kattar put on a clinic. The UFC debutant dominated the veteran, outpointing him on all three judges's scorecards. The consensus went from doubt to belief. "The Boston Finisher" Calvin Kattar had become a name to watch in the 145 pound division.
Despite the short-notice nature of his debut, Kattar believes he still could have done better in Anaheim. "Given the short notice, I was happy with the performance," says Kattar. "I felt like I could have done more, but I saw myself [being] up two going into the third. I just wanted to put away the W that time."
This Saturday night at the TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts Calvin Kattar will return to take on rising featherweight star Shane Burgos (10-0, 3-0 UFC), live on pay-per-view. Kattar is happy to be able to have a full camp this time around, in order to put on a true display of what he has to offer. "This time we've got ten weeks and it's in my backyard," says Kattar. "I plan to go out there and put on a show."
Fighting for the UFC in his home state of Massachusetts, just a half hour drive from where he grew up, Kattar calls his upcoming fight "a dream come true." "I've always wanted to compete in the Garden," says Kattar. "This is where I grew up and I've always gone there for the biggest events in town. This opportunity is a blessing. I'm going to go out there and whatever happens, happens, but I'm going to be able to say that I was offered this opportunity and I took it."

Chemical engineers apply the principles of chemistry and biology to generate chemical reactions in the production of chemicals, fuel, pharmaceuticals, and many other products. They design processes and equipment for large-scale manufacturing, plan and test production and byproduct treatment. Most chemical engineers have a bachelors degree in chemical engineering, as well as internship experience. They may spend a large portion of their work day at industrial plants, refineries, and other locations, where they monitor chemical reactions or solve onsite problems. The average salary for chemical engineers was $97,360 as reported the US Bureau of Labor Statistics in May 2015.
Biomedical engineers design equipment, devices, computer systems, and software used in healthcare. Bachelors degree programs in bioengineering include extensive lab-work, and courses such as fluid mechanics, computer programming, circuit design, and biomaterials. Accredited programs also include substantial training in engineering design, and practical internships in medical device and pharmaceutical manufacturing companies. The median annual wage for biomedical engineers was $86,220 in May 2015. Further, employment of biomedical engineers is projected to grow 23% in the next decade, which is much faster than the average for all occupations.

My dream house would probably be…
1. A medium sized wooden, open house on the shore of a beach with a really pretty cabana covered with green vines. The thought of sipping blue lemonade while sitting on your cabana looking out on to the waves is just, simply ahhh.
2. A medium sized house with a gigantic lawn and a perfect shuttle court and basketball court. And a sort of little cabin next to the main house on the lawn to put in your books,board games and DVD's and stuff. Sorta like your own personal Shangri-la cabin.
3. A house with it's base color as white. White walls. White marble flooring. White ceilings. And the furniture should be colorful and 'matchful'. That would be amazingly pretty.
4. Forget about a house. I'd want a kitchen just like that.That's T.Swift's BTW.
You know, what would be perfect though?

From millions of subscribers on Youtube, to the millions of views on Vine, Team Internet is taking over the world right now. Internet stars are blowing up every industry; music, T.V., movies, advertisement, books, charities, etc. You name it, they're taking it over.
The Music Industry
"Team Internet" is a new generation of entertainment all done online. Many use Youtube or Vine as a stepping stone for something bigger. For example, the social media platforms have been used to get into the music industry. Justin Bieber and 5 Seconds of Summer are two great examples of some of the hottest artists right now and they started off making covers of their favorite songs on Youtube.
One big Youtube sensation named Troye Sivan has taken his Youtube fame and used it to influence his music career. He has released two EP's and been recognized by Taylor Swift for one of his tracks, "Wild", and has been featured in one of Zedd's singles.
Another good example is Shawn Mendes. He used the app Vine to showcase his musical talents by posting six second videos of covers to his favorite songs. He has been recognized by his musical inspiration, Ed Sheeran and within the past year he has been touring the world with big name artists like Austin Mahone and Taylor Swift.
Two of Mendes' good friends, Jack Johnson and Jack Gilinsky, are also well known for posting funny Vine videos but they have completely branched out and have been creating music with no label behind them for over a year now. Each time, they hold a place at the top of the charts and have been touring all over the country and abroad. Last summer, they toured the U.S. and filmed a tour documentary that was released in late 2014.
Many advertising companies see the attention and impact social media stars have so they use it to their advantage. They will get the Internet sensations to endorse their products and spread the word to their followers. As an audience, we relate to the people behind the camera because they create the content themselves. They don't have to read off a script, they just focus on being candid and creating good videos. This is why Internet celebrities have grabbed the attention of millions around the world, including big businesses. Businesses use their popularity across all Internet platforms as a marketing technique. For example, Pepsi now focuses it's advertising on Youtube and Facebook in order to capture the attention of the viewers watching their videos. That's why so many businesses put the name of their company into the hands of these young stars. And the more sponsors a Youtuber gets, the bigger the profit they make.
How Team Internet Is Raising Awareness to Real Life Issues
Internet stars don't only use the attention they get to better themselves but they use it to spread awareness of different issues hoping to empower the youth of today.
For example, I personally found out about the Thirst Project from a well known Youtuber, Connor Franta. With well over 4.9 million subscribers, Franta created a video on his birthday where he expressed how he wanted no gifts at all. All he wanted was to give back to the Thirst Project. He asked his subscribers to help him in the campaign by donating to the charity or just by spreading the word of the project. He ended up raising $200,030 in 30 days. All that money went towards building wells in underdeveloped countries allowing villages to have fresh water. Franta believed this project would allow his viewers to do some good and help impact others lives and give back to those who really need it. "To my viewers at home, thank you for putting other people before yourselves. It speaks highly of this generation, it speaks highly of the youth" Franta said as he accepted the Governors Award at the Thirst Gala.
Some Youtubers including Tyler Oakley, Connor Franta, Ingrid Nelson, Troye Sivan, Hannah Hart, Joey Graceffa, Shane Dawson, Gigi Gorgeous, and many others bring awareness to LGBTQ. In the past year alone, several Youtubers have made coming out videos. This past year, Ingrid Nelson came out to her 3.8 million subscribers. In the video she explains how she's been "suppressing this feeling" for so long. Nelson goes on to say how she never acted on how she felt because she just wanted to be "loved and accepted" by those around her but later in life she learns her sexuality never mattered to anyone. She warned her followers to not let the same thing happen to them if they are in the same position. Nelson explains how no one should feel the way she did.
The purpose of these videos is to shed some light into the Youtuber's personal lives while connecting to their followers. Through these videos, the Youtuber reassures their viewers that's it's okay to be the way they are, give advice, and to never feel alone because there are millions of people just like them going through the same thing.
All and all, Team Internet has been making some huge strides in 2015 and 2016 will only bring bigger and better things for the online community.

MOSCOW: Russia's largest oil producer Rosneft said on Monday it had successfully closed a deal to buy a 49% stake in Indian private refiner Essar Oil Limited (EOL).
An investment consortium comprising Swiss commodity trading firm Trafigura, and Russian private fund United Capital Partners (UCP, has also announced the closure of their acquisition of a separate 49% share of EOL. "Together with our partners we intend to support the company to significantly improve its financial performance and, in the medium term, adopt an asset development strategy," Rosneft cited its CEO Igor Sechin as saying in a statement.

"That's what they call it," she says, laughing at the memory of playing Harmony, a very pregnant hippie throwback who totes around a tub of peanut butter, spoon at the ready, and wears flower-child dresses.
Directed by Fred Wolf, a former
"It's kind of like 'Revenge of the Nerds,' but we're not really nerds," McPhee says. Characters are more in the slacker mold. "We just don't really care that much; my character is pregnant, so I really don't feel like doing anything."
Three years ago, McPhee was belting her way through her "American Idol" audition in
The transition, she says, comes with unique challenges. Though "Idol" offers enormous exposure for finalists, it does cement contestants in people's minds solely as singers. "There's still a lot of proving to do on my part," she says. "I just came from an audition with a big director," she adds, though she won't drop names so as not to jinx her chances.
Made by
McPhee may not have many lines, but she does sing twice -- once in a very un-"Idol"-like karaoke performance, and once doing a modified cover of the Waitresses' 1982 hit "I Know What Boys Like," which plays over the credits.
On set, McPhee was able to improvise and came up with some funny moments that stayed in the movie, including one in which she squeegees her character's pregnant belly during a sexy carwash scene.
"Surprisingly, Katharine could throw down and was excellent at throwing in improv stuff," Wolf says. "She was riffing for a good five minutes with the squeegee in hand."
In a summer of male-driven comedies like
Through it all, McPhee never made her "Idol" stardom a big deal to anyone, says Wolf, who was impressed by her composure. "I had to be reminded that she's a big star in her world," he says, adding that he would often see paparazzi lurking behind craft services hoping for shots of McPhee.
In a few weeks, McPhee begins shooting "The Storyteller," a psychological drama in which she stars alongside

I took this with the intention of putting the subject bang in the middle. I think a lot of people avoid putting the subject in the middle of the frame most of the time and often forget that it CAN look good, especially when symmetry is concerned. Also, just because an object is in the centre doesn't mean that the eye is drawn immediately to it: Here, the eye is drawn upwards, not only at the pylon but at the wires leading to the next one. You can also see the distant pylons in the background, lined up exactly behind the main pylon, giving it a sense of continuity (and unseen continuity behind you). I also liked the way the sky illuminated the pylon, but only in the centre.
Wow I got a bit overanalytical there! ;)

is tamar & vince back together?
Happy Holidays People!! Tamar Braxton and Vincent Herbert's split has been unfolding on their reality show, "Tamar & Vince", but a new photo circulating the internet has fans wondering if they have reconciled. Fans of the singer are wondering if the couple faked their divorce in order to spark up their ratings for tv.. hmmmmm
It does raise eyebrows on the timing of their split announcement, (how convienent) which came just ahead of the premiere of their reality show. Sooooo this was all for tv huh? Braxton has addressed her split numerous times, insisting the split is real and not simply for publicity.
One follower previously commented on Tamar's social media post, writing, "Tay, I love you so much! I REALLY hope you and Vince aren't lying about this divorce for ratings!!!!! I know it's such a coincidence and I just can't help but wonder if ya'll are scamming your fans or not."
Tamar replied to the comment, writing, "baby ain't NOBODY got time for that! I don't play with my life and most of all I would NEVER play with GOD!! For what!?!? I wish it was fake!! it's the hardest thing I've EVER been through." welllll…
Braxton has also addressed the reasons behind her split from Vince, suggesting he had cheated on her. Tamar stated she had been 'living a lie' by staying in her marriage for face value.
Braxton, who is currently on the Great Xscape Tour, normally has meet and greet sessions with fans after the show. Two of those fans shared photos to social media that had people talking! Tamar's estranged husband Vince is shown in the background of the photo with a big smile on his face.
I'm beyond Grateful and humbled. To God be the Glory for all of his blessings and love. 🙏🏽 Even when I think he's forgotten about me he ALWAYS shows up and shows OUT EVERYTIME!💞

So here I am, with my empty stomach, recovering from the "mild" food poisoning and playing in the BBT freeroll when the FTP server lets us all down by having some serious issues. For the next hour or so, this is what I see.
I mean come on. At first, it freaked me out until I heard from girly chats and BuddyDank radio that everyone was frozen out. This sucks.... this one hour (ok, maybe it's like 40 minutes) delay is really a hinderance to us east coasters. Honestly though, the BuddyDank radio and the girly chats kept me entertained... but I'm weak from the lack of food. Oh well... Yeah, yeah, cry me a river, I know. This sucks... I am now pulling for a reschedule...

Christmas Video 2009
The envelopes for our Christmas cards got slightly ruined again this year. Good thing the documentary crew from the hit NBC show "The Office" was there to film what happened.

Willow loves swimming in her pool. Maggie is jealous of how much fun Willow has – however, refuses to get her fur wet. We're hoping Willow is willing to share her pool with baby!

About: Kaelyn Green
My life has always been affected by sports and nothing is more entertaining than a good game. It started in college when I was on the dance team and I watched from the sidelines and my interest took off from there. Whether I'm shooting the hoops or watching the Super Bowl, there's nothing like the adrenaline of an event-filled match in front of a roaring crowd. Sure, there's plenty of heartbreak watching some of my favorites like the Chicago Bulls or the New Orleans Saints (yes, I realize I live in Atlanta and I'm a traitor for also liking the Falcons). But what can I say. My posts always aim to please, but we all know facts are facts!

Moderation When it Comes to Nip and Tuck
Hello again. I have always been a big proponent of the mini-facelift procedure because of its durability, longevity, and the fact that it doesn't give the "wind tunnel" appearance. It's a fantastic procedure to tuck away undesired excess, saggy skin and fat from the face and neck and simply come out looking tighter, more rejuvenated. In looking at the photos of people that I have done this procedure on, it is very impressive to see the before and afters of these patients.
The mini-facelift procedure is different than the full facelift where the person may coming out not looking like themselves. The purpose of the mini-facelift is to tighten things up in the lower face and neck with smaller incisions, thus creating shorter recovery time. I have done mini-facelifts on the 80-90 year old patient population, but typically it is very highly effective for the 40-70 year old group. Have a look at a patient's video testimonial located on our web site. The patient shares her experience beginning with the first day after her procedure ending with day 14 after the mini-facelift.
I just wanted to write about this procedure because it is such a unique and remarkable procedure for those looking for a moderate correction or a little "nip and tuck". Come to New Image Maxillofacial to talk with me about this procedure and if anything, to get a little education about it at no cost. Currently, this procedure is at a special price until the end of March. If you didn't see this special March price on the website, please be diligent and look for it. It is there.
Thanks for reading.

Ugh, so I've had kind of shitty week so far. Been nervous because today was my followup Dr's appointment to have more tests done to see if the results from the last ones were just an anomaly. Now I have to wait to hear back from the ones today, and if those are off have to go get more done. I've seriously changed my life as far as drinking and eating in the last month and I just want to be healthy. So fingers crossed I guess.
I also just busted my ass on my back deck b/c it's got some film of moss on it and gets slick when it's rained. I grabbed onto a crappy wooden chair to break my fall and that slammed into like right under my armpit. Hurts but it could have been a lot worse I guess.
I've also just been in a pissy mood this week because I finally decided to dip my toes back into the dating world and of course I see my effing ex's profile on the dating site I use pretty much right off. I don't know why but it pissed me off. This from the chick that claimed she was going to be too broken up and busy with school and work to even think about a relationship for a long time after we finally broke up. Now I have to see her sorry ass everytime I look at who's viewed my profile.
But, after a few days of this I've just gotten to the point of saying fuck it. It's not like I want her back. I can and will do better than her. I can find someone that is emotionally available and better looking and more simpatico with me. It will of course take some work, but it will happen. I'm just honestly pissed at myself for wasting several years on this person(I'm being nice and not using the b-word). But, what's done is done and I have to believe that things will work out how they should in the end. I'm more ready to settle down now and I know what NOT to do in relationships and the types of relationships I should NOT be in. Not saying I don't have my own faults I need to work on, but I can do better than her, and will.
Anyway, I'm off to cook some dinner and then try to workout if my side doesn't hurt to bad from the fall. Hope everyone's having a good week and please send any thoughts or wishes or whatever that I'll get good news tomorrow or whenever they get the test results back.

I have to admit I wasn't sure what to expect when I received a copy of The Afters CD for review. Honestly, I tend to be one of those old fashioned types; I prefer the simple and sweet music. No bells and whistles for me thank you very much. But I will say this impressed me with their constant and bold messages of faith; continual reminders that God alone os our refuse and fortress. It is in HIM that we are strong.
The Afters were founded by Joshua Havens (vocals/guitar/keyboard) and Matt Fuqua (guitar/backing vocals), when these two musicians (previously baristas at Starbucks in Mesquite, Texas) began to play for customers at the local coffee shop. I can only imagine how amazing that might have been; to be present with a delicious and soothing cup o java and some praise and worship music right at the side!
The Afters emerged out of some amazing circumstances with a testimony to speak. This is their fifth album and is beautifully entitled Live On Forever. Through the loss of a loved one, a bad diagnosis, The Afters continue to stand strong. It is through their hardships, heartaches and pain that they emerge stronger than before in their faith, in their relationships and as a musical group too. The group is such a telling reminder of how our trials can only increase our strength and trust in God! How great is HIs faithfulness and mercy to those who are faithful to Him.
I love this quote from Haven:
"It's about standing up against fear and knowing God is always with us. It's one of the takeaways we hope people get: 'Don't give up to fear.' That captures the theme of the whole record and stands out as representing what we want it to be."
These songs really are so good! I love how again and again the message remains the same; we are strong in Christ. We need only trust in Him, turn to Him in all situations. It is a bit more "rock and roll" than I would like but we did enjoy this CD and continue to enjoy the messages within every song. It is a constant blessing in its own way to al of us (my oldest son who is 10 and my daughter who is 5) just love singing along to these precious and powerful messages!
The Afters are scheduled for a 40+ City Tour with the Newsboys starting September 22nd. Check the links below for Tour Dates and cities near you.

I've pasted Dick's latest email verbatim so the audience may see what an ass he is and also so we can all laugh at his poor grammar.
From: "Dick / Law Offices of Dick C. Baxter" dickSent: Monday, July 3, 2017 8:01 AM
To: EB1 Writing Staff
Cc: "Setareh" firstname.lastname@example.com
Subject: Dick to EB1 Writing Team - July a New Month
Hi Team,
Yes, losing Britney was an awful blow to the the entire firm and it has taken us a few weeks to find our bearings. However, in order for this firm to thrive we, individually have to be extremely mindful of our own productivity. The entire EB1 backend team made $24,260 in June. To put that in perspective Evie, made almost that amount by herself in June. Whatever the reasons for the EB1 backend team overall poor performance in June and I'm not laying blame here, I want to put it behind us and draw a line but moving forward I really have to consider whether we have the right people or systems in place to make the EB1 backend team successful. July will be your month to shine.
So here is what I need from each of you.
1. You need to deliver at least 12 arguments per month. That's just three per week. I don't mind if you spend Monday thru Thursday just working up evidence and then on Friday just writing as much as you can, as long as you can get to three by the end of each week, that's all that matters.
Leisha - your quota will be pro-rated due to you working on the AOS Training Manual this week.
2. I've discussed with Akhiljeet that your (Tanís and Leisha) goal should be to work up six arguments per week, and then draft at least three arguments per week so you've never stuck without arguments to write.
3. Delmira Roble will be starting on July 10th. Delmira's role will be as a ghost writer. What that means is, that Akhiljeet will devote time every day working up evidence for cases that Delmira will write for her. Delmira, will also be available to provide writing support to Leisha and Tanís, if Akhiljeet cannot keep her busy all of the time.
Delmira will not be known to the clients at all, she will be a ghost. Here is the rationale. Writing arguments is far easier than working up the evidence. To work up evidence you have to deal with the clients, chase in the evidence, review the evidence, go back to the client for more and better evidence until you have everything you need. The writing part is certainly the fun part and the easiest part.
What I'm finding is that when I had experienced staff working evidence and experienced staff writing arguments, the client's got mad because the person they spoke to the most was the evidence (Discovery) specialist and if that person was inexperienced it simply frustrated the client. When the Discovery Specialist has the responsibility of Discovery and Writing the case (Trial), everything gets muddled and progresses very slowly indeed - too slow for the firm to thrive.
I need Akhiljeet to use her brain power to work up evidence as outlined above and to ensure that Tanís and Leisha do the same.
Minimum Productivity Requirements
Tanís - I need 12 completed arguments written by you by the end of July.
Leisha - I need 12 completed arguments written by you by the end of July. (pro-rated)
Akhiljeet - I need you to feed Delmira at the very least 1 argument per day that she must complete every day. Ideally, I'll be expecting Delmira once, dialed in, to write one argument in the AM and one argument in the PM.
If anyone cannot manage 12 arguments per month, then I'm not going to be able to keep them in that position as to do so would be bad for the firm. I'll need to figure something out.
So do what ever you can and need to do hit the above minimum numbers. If you feel for any reason you cannot hit those numbers first talk to Akhiljeet, then Akhiljeet will talk to Setareh, and if neither of them can get you there then I'll talk to all of you.
The bottom line is that in order for this firm to thrive, there must be an absolute minimum level of productivity that must be delivered in order to justify that person in that position.
At present I'm working almost all of my waking hours in order to fill in here, and fill in there. I'm constantly exhausted and it's not from having fun. I cannot sustain this. So, in July, I'm going to be looking to see who can really deliver consistently what they need to.
1. I'm expecting Bully Sullivan to be releasing new features to the IPC this week to help us work more efficiently.
2. I'm interviewing two additional part-time programmers to work on the IPC to add more features to help both Intake and Backends. I hope to get one or two of them started July 10th also.
Failure is Not an Option
The law firm has come a long way over the years. It's not been a straight line up, it's zig-zagged for sure, but the trend has always been up. Sure, people have come and gone, but still the firm has grown. Why? because I have an obligation to every employee who shows up to work and produces to make sure we're all provided for, we all have a very secure job, so we can have a life outside of the job. I cannot fail in this regard. However, to do so the majority of the staff must be able to hit their numbers otherwise try as I might we will fail overall and I'm not going to let that happen.
I'm sure by the end of this month, we'll all have a lot to celebrate because I have every confidence that July will be a great month for all of us.

» Ecolab Inc. Q4 2009 Earnings Call Transcript
» Ecolab Inc. Q3 2009 Earnings Call Transcript
Starting with Slides 3 and 4, we continue to deliver strong earnings results in the second quarter despite mixed conditions in our end markets. The sales gain was fueled by aggressive actions to gain new accounts using our innovative new products and industry-leading service force. Margins improved on the better volume and benefited from favorable delivered product costs and cost-reduction actions. Looking ahead, we expect to continue outperforming our gradually improving markets and deliver superior growth once again in 2010.Starting with some highlights from the quarter. Reported second quarter earnings per share were up 32% to $0.54. On an adjusted basis, excluding special gains and charges and discrete tax items from both years, second quarter 2010 earnings per share increased 12% to $0.56. The adjusted earnings per share growth was driven by better volume, new products, new account gains, pricing, favorable delivered product costs and cost savings, which more than offset higher operating costs and continued investments in our business. Our U.S. and European Foodservice markets remained soft but are stabilizing. Lodging room demand has increased and is showing good trends worldwide. The Food & Beverage and Healthcare markets remained steady, and we continue to see good growth across all market segments in our Asia-Pacific and Latin America businesses. We continue to be aggressive, focusing on top line growth as we emphasize our innovative products and service strengths to help drive market share growth in our core businesses and deliver new account acquisitions among our national, regional and independent prospects. We're also making significant investments in key growth businesses to build future growth. We also remained focused on cost savings, emphasizing productivity and efficiency improvement to help increase margins. Looking ahead, we expect third quarter adjusted EPS to increase 5% to 8% to the $0.64 to $0.66 range, compared with adjusted EPS of $0.61 in the third quarter 2009, reflecting comparison against strong results last year, easing raw material cost benefits and unfavorable currency trends. Despite the uncertain economy and fluctuating currency exchange rates, we continue to look for double-digit EPS growth with adjusted EPS of $2.21 to $2.26 per share for the full year 2010, representing an 11% to 14% gain over last year. That would represent another year in our decade-long performance of fixed currency sales growth, our ninth consecutive year of adjusted EPS growth and eight double-digit EPS gain in the last 10 years.
In summary, we expect 2010 to reflect yet another strong performance by Ecolab, as we use aggressively sales efforts to gain new accounts and achieve better sales penetration, along with improved efficiency and cost savings to once again deliver attractive growth and shareholder returns.Turning to the details as shown on Slide 5, Ecolab's reported consolidated sales for the second quarter increased 5%. Looking at the components, volume and mix increased 2%, pricing was up 1% and currency benefited sales by 2%. Slide 6 includes sales growth by segment and division. Sales for the U.S. Cleaning & Sanitizing operations rose 3%. Institutional sales rose 2%. New account gains, new products and the comparison to weaker distributor shipments last year benefited second quarter sales. We continue to outperform mixed market trends with continued soft food service foot traffic and strengthening lodging room demand in the second quarter. We remain focused on driving sales growth using innovative products in ware washing, laundry and housekeeping that provides superior performance while delivering water, energy and labor savings for our customers. We're also targeting new accounts with additional and redeployed sales people in program. These actions have resulted in good new account gains, and we're continuing our efforts to drive more sales at margin growth. We expect these gains, investments in our sales team and new accounts to help Institutional continue to outperform its markets in the third quarter and the year. Case second quarter sales grew 6%, led by strong growth from new account wins and Food Retail. We also enjoyed good demand from existing and new Fast Food chain accounts. New products and programs like the introduction of Scrub-N-Go, the floor cleaner for QSR restaurants, benefited case results. We expect these initiative, along with continued good new account growth, to help drive strong gains in case third quarter.
Textile Care sales were up 3%, as customer gains, new program launches and the additional sales within existing customers offset continued challenging industry conditions. Ecolab is focused on innovative products and services, operational savings and service excellence to bolster results. With textile industry conditions remaining difficult, we look for sales to be flattish in the third quarter.Read the rest of this transcript for free on seekingalpha.com

July 5, 2012 - Hike/Run
Today my favorite moment was when Devin and I went on a walk turned into hike turned into run. We walked and talked for a while then turned off the road onto a trail and hiked a bit. Then I got bored with hiking and wanted to run so we did. I just love running. I don't know what it is about running, but it is one of my most favorite activities in the whole world.
