"Fake AP Style" Twitter Feed Delivers Laughs For Writers
Every journalism major remembers the AP Style Manual – a style manual that's still an excellent guide (I've worn out three over the years, but you can avoid wear & tear with their online edition).
Now FakeAPStylebook has created a hilarious sendup of AP's Style ubiquitous style manual, and metered it out via a truly "LOL" Twitter feed (see, I'm still cutting edge):

Tips, How To Register An Expiring Domain
Understanding the action and options complex with registering an expiring area can be a ambagious task. How, Where, When?
This commodity will explain the basal accomplish to researching an expiring area name, and the abounding altered options (or should I say all-important accomplish to assure success).
The accustomed area cessation action for .com .net
(domain abatement cycle):
Phase 1. Active Domain
A area is registered for a time aeon of 1-10 years. During this time the area buyer has complete use of the domain.
Phase 2. On-Hold
At the end of this time period, the apprentice is appropriate to pay a face-lifting fee to the agent to abide to use the domain. If the area is renewed go aback to appearance 1, if not the area is placed in an onhold (on-hold) cachet for 1-45 canicule (each agent has determines how continued this aeon lasts). During this time, the apprentice (owner of the domain) can still pay the face-lifting fee and abide to use his/her area name. During this onhold aeon the area resolves to the registrars website or does not boldness at all.
Phase 3. Redemption
After the 1-45 day onhold period, the area again enters accretion cachet (RGP – Accretion adroitness period), which lasts for 30 days. During this time the apprentice of the area name has the advantage to pay a accretion amends fee (redemption fees about amount amid $100-200 depending on the registrar) and renew the domain. If the area buyer renews the area go aback to appearance 1. During this accretion aeon the area resolves to the registrars website or does not boldness at all.
Phase 4. Awaiting Delete
After the area completes the 30 day accretion aeon after actuality renewed, it again enters a 5 day awaiting annul period. During this the time the apprentice no best has the adeptness to renew the area name. The area will be appear to the accepted accessible and be accessible for allotment on the sixth day at 2pm eastern.
(This bead action does not authority accurate for absolute backorders)
Domains are an anytime alteration industry. Over the aftermost 2 years, abounding things accept afflicted including abounding variations of the area abatement process. The aloft mentioned action is the norm, but every day added and added registrars are starting to accept absolute drops.
An archetype of an absolute drop: A area is registered with Arrangement Solutions. The apprentice fails to renew the area aural 60 canicule of the cessation date. The area is again auctioned off at snapnames.com (a domain
auction site).
Each agent has their own time anatomy for absolute drops. Current registrars that are accommodating in absolute drops are: arrangement solutions, godaddy, agrarian west domains, dejected razor, aggregate register, dotster, and enom. Domains registered at arrangement solutions or aggregate annals charge be backordered at snapnames. Domains registered at godaddy, agrarian west domains, or dejected razor charge be backordered at godaddy or a agrarian west reseller such as domainut.com. Domains registered at
dotster charge be backordered at namewinner Domains registered at enom charge be backordered at club bead (if at atomic on backorder is placed at the aloft casework the area will break with the aboriginal registrar, if no backorder is placed, the area will chase the accustomed bead process) A backorder is the action of signing up at a bead communicable account and authoritative a appeal to be the abutting buyer of a domain. The prices at anniversary bead bolt account vary. Pool.com – Backorders alpha at $60. Basin uses a pay for achievement business model. If basin does not bolt the area back it expires again you are not charged. If you are the alone being that backordered a area and basin catches it, you are awarded the area for $60. If the asleep area was backordered by added than one person, the area is again up for clandestine auction. Bodies that backordered the area above-mentioned to Basin communicable it are alone accustomed to bid in the auction. The bargain lasts for 3 days. SnapNames.com – Backorders alpha at $60. Snapnames uses a pay for achievement business model. If Snapnames does not bolt the area back it expires again you are not charged. If you are the alone being that backordered a area and snapnames catches it, you are awarded the area for $60. If the asleep area was backordered by added than one person, the area is again up for clandestine auction. Bodies that backordered the area above-mentioned to snapnames communicable it are alone accustomed to bid in the auction. The bargain lasts for 3 days. Enom Club Bead – Backorder alpha amount is optional$10 or $30. Enom uses a pay for achievement business model. If enom does not bolt the area back it expires again you are not charged. If you are the alone being that backordered a area for $10 the area again goes to accessible auction, but if you backordered it for $30 or added and enom catches it, you are awarded the domain. If the asleep area was backordered for $30 or added by added than one person, the area is again up for clandestine auction. The bargain lasts for 3 days. Namewinner.com – Backorders alpha at $30.

If the asleep area was backordered by added than one person, the area is again up for clandestine auction. Bodies that backordered the area above-mentioned to namewinner communicable it are alone accustomed to bid in the auction. The bargain lasts for 3 days. Godaddy.com or any Agrarian West Domains Reseller – $18.95 aboriginal appear aboriginal served (only one being can abode a backorder on any one expiring domain, if or back the area expires and godaddy catches it, the backorder holder is awarded the domain.) It is consistently best to absolutely analysis an expiring area name. There is no abiding blaze way of alive if a area will accept traffic, or how abundant a area is worth. But by blockage to see how abounding sites articulation to a area (linkpop), how abounding bodies searched for the area in the antecedent ages (overture with extension), how abounding bodies searched for the agreement that accomplish up the area in the antecedent ages (overture after the extension), what the google pr is (google folio rank), and what the area was use for in the accomplished (wayback archive), you can get a asperous abstraction of how abundant cartage you should expect.
Once you accept absolutely researched a domain, you should again adjudge if the area is account backordering at basin or snapname for $60, at enom or namewinner for $30, at godaddy or a agrarian west reseller for $18.95, or enom for $10. Bethink to awning all your bases if an expiring area is account at atomic $60 to you, again backorder at all of the aloft services. If it is alone account $30, again backorder at any account that is $30 or cheaper (but bethink addition abroad may backorder it at the $60 service, and again you accept no adventitious at accepting the asleep domain, if you don't accept a backorder placed at that service.)

Being Remarkable With PPC
A lot of PPC advice is focused around direct marketing strategy i.e. you identify an audience and deliver them what they want. You convert at rate X. Repeat.
For the most part, this works well. However, you may be missing an opportunity to spread your message to a wider audience, and this benefit could come free.
Try to make your offer truly remarkable. Is your offer worth remarking upon? If not, could it be twisted so it could be, or put in a form that makes it easy to repeat?
Become A Purple Cow
Purple Cow: Transform Your Business by Being Remarkable is a book by Seth Godin. The central theme is that offering me-too products and services is boring. Such goods and services won't be remarked upon. Since we live in a world of saturated media, to be unremarkable is to go un-noticed. To not be noticed is the death of a business. If you haven't read the book, I suggest you do – it's a great read, and it's short and to the the point.
The lesson of being remarkable translates well online. Online marketers have picked up on it, using remarkable qualities of a message, or format of that message, to help ensure a message gets spread.
The same tactic can be used in PPC.
Landing Page Competition
Take a look at your competitors landing pages. Do any of them stand out? Do they stand out in the sense that the message would be worth you repeating to someone else?
That quality of being remarkable, or being repeatable, is a valuable marketing tool. Sometimes, all it takes to become remarkable is to twist your existing message into something unexpected. Like turning a typical cow into a purple-colored cow. It's still a cow, but the way it appears makes it stand out.
However, this isn't just a cosmetic concept. Not only should you have a remarkable angle, but it's best if you also need a remarkable, unique product or service.
If this sounds familiar, it is – it's a riff on the old concept of a unique selling point.
The unique selling point has three specific components:
- Each advertisement must make a proposition to the consumer. Not just words, not just product puffery, not just show-window advertising. Each advertisement must say to each reader: "Buy this product, and you will get this specific benefit.
- The proposition must be one that the competition either cannot, or does not, offer. It must be unique—either a uniqueness of the brand or a claim not otherwise made in that particular field of advertising.
- The proposition must be so strong that it can pull over new customers to your product.
The modern twist is that your message should also be repeatable. People should want to spread your message, and be able to do so easily. The benefit is that your message reaches a wider audience than it otherwise would.
Obviously, this will not suit every product or service. For example, it's hard to imagine toilet paper ever being truly remarkable, and being unremarkable has hardly affected toilet paper sales!
However, it's an interesting way to think about what you do. Is there some aspect to your service that you can twist in order to make remarkable and memorable? Could you promote it in such a way that people will be "forced" to remark upon it? For example, you could use a quirky YouTube video on your landing page and encourage people to embed it in their site.
What does this have to do with PPC?
There's no reason your landing pages can't have a viral component to them that encourage people to remark on your product of service.
You have people's attention – you paid for the click – and you still need to convert people to a desired action. One of those desired actions could be to have people run with your message and repeat it in other channels. You could embed social media components, like video and Facebook groups, that facilitate people repeating or remarking upon your message.
The pay off is that you create attention in other channels, and if the message does go viral, then you get a whole lot of extra marketing value for free.

Focus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it. – Greg Anderson
Our lives can easily become overcrowded with worries and deadlines. So how do we turn down the volume and focus more on what truly matters, like our relationships, our kids, ourselves, our passions, and our careers?
I don't have all of the answers, but I've found by doing a few simple things, my mind, and heart, can begin to focus more on what truly matters. Things like…
Meditating – There are simple meditation techniques that will help you de-stress and focus in as little as five minutes. They all contain the same basic principles: sit comfortably in a chair or on the floor and clear your mind of any thoughts or distractions. Pick a point on the wall to focus your gaze on, and then listen to the steady inhale and exhale of your breath, letting any thought go that comes into your mind.
Taking a walk – Around the neighborhood, at the park, or at an indoor track, let your stress fall away as you take a leisurely stroll. Walking is also a low-impact workout that is great for your heart, your circulation, and for clearing your mind.
Writing in a journal – Whether or not you're big into writing, putting pen to paper can cleanse your mental and spiritual state. Often times, the worries and stresses of life get trapped in our heads and we have no way to release them. Writing how you're feeling and what's bothering you can help you focus on what's truly important and how you might fix your circumstance.
Enjoying nature – Just let yourself be. Not someone who has a hundred things on their to-do list, not a parent, not the one with the responsibilities, not the bill payer–just be. Reconnecting with nature, like on a nature trail or near a river or lake, will give you a renewed sense of purpose to focus your energies.
Treating yourself to the spa – Squeeze in a quick session at a massage parlor or spa, or have an indulgent bath day at home. Relaxing your muscles will help relax your mind, too. You'll be able to get a fresh outlook on life.
Putting things into perspective – Take a deep breath and put it all into perspective. You're doing all that you can. There is only so much one can do in a day, even if you use every single, waking hour. If there is something specific bothering you, like desiring a new career direction, or thinking your current relationship is floundering, assess what it is that makes you unhappy and what would need to change so that you will feel more happy. Breaking it down into simple terms and equations can help you focus on what's really important to you.
Talking to someone close to you – Talking it out is one of the most cathartic things you can do. Not only can venting be a relief to your soul, but hearing someone else's third-party perspective will put things into focus again for you

You can buy Plan B on Amazon, but that doesn't mean you should
You can buy anything on Amazon — even this replica glove of Freddy Krueger's hand from Nightmare on Elm Street. So, it's not really that surprising that the world's largest online marketplace also sells Plan B.
Plan B One-Step was the first emergency contraceptive FDA-approved for over-the-counter sale in 2013. This approval means anyone can purchase it without a doctor's prescription — and that many stores can stock it, including Amazon.
More: Women are having hysterectomies following nightmare Essure complications
But is it a good idea?
The Amazon reviews are generally pretty positive. "When you're panicking, look no further. This is the perfect solution to any pregnancy scare that you aren't prepared for," one reviewer said.
Many point to the low price as a reason to buy it on Amazon.
"Effective and having one in case of emergency saves money," added another.
More: Rejoice! Birth control with no prescription is now a reality!
Saving a few dollars on such an expensive medication is enticing, but that's a huge red flag that it's too good to be true. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration advises against buying medicine online because "there are many websites that operate legally and offer convenience, privacy, and safeguards for purchasing medicines. But there are also many 'rogue websites' that offer to sell potentially dangerous drugs that have not been checked for safety or effectiveness."
Amazon isn't a "rogue website," but it does have a marketplace for third-party vendors, meaning any company can apply and sell products on the website without much oversight. This means you're rolling the dice when you buy — it could be real, but it could be fake. At best, you could prevent an unwanted pregnancy; at worst, you could be pregnant and not realize before it's too late to take another dose.
This isn't an isolated problem: Johnson & Johnson pulled their products from Amazon for a time in 2012, saying that the company isn't "doing enough to prevent people from selling damaged or expired J&J products," including contaminated batches of Tylenol.
More: Women tweet #MyPillStory to share birth control woes
And if you do buy? It might not get to you in time, especially if you wait to buy until you need it. Plan B must be taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex to be effective and there's no guarantee you'll get it in time.
Don't play with your body to save a few dollars. Just fork over the cash — or visit your local Planned Parenthood — to get access to Plan B. That way you know it's safe and you can get advice from a licensed pharmacist if you need it.

From Malaysia
My 12 year old adopted sister has had type 1 diabetes since she was seven, and I would like to know more about the autoimmune process in its development as well as the relationship with other endocrine diseases such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis and adrenal insufficiency.
On the second issue of explaining autoimmunity and the related issue of associated autoimmune problems in the thyroid and suprarenal glands you will find a very simple beginner account at this site; but if you would like to go into the subject in more depth and perhaps have access to someone who could help with a rather scirntifically oriented text you should download Chapter 1 and Chapter 8 in the book Type 1 Diabetes: Cellular, Molecular & Clinical Immunology by George Eisenbarth. This is an up to date descrption of a very complex process.

Open Thread: Talk About Sex & Love — No Conversation Is or Ever Will Be Off Limits Here
Here's your place to come talk about sex and love whenever you feel like it.
Last night I was reading this article in the Telegraph about high school romances and how they "lead to low marks and drinking" and I was struck by something. I don't think I ever went on a date at school, ever.
The culture in our school, and those around it, was more that you went to a park on a Friday night in a huge gaggle, armed with Lambrini and 20 Marlboro Lights, necked the booze as quickly as possible, smoked your cigarettes in the most alluring way you could muster and then at about 10 pm you'd partner off into a bush somewhere to get unmasterfully fingered by a spotty oik with too much gel in his hair. THAT was dating at my school.
If you were "lucky" enough to be in a relationship, it had usually came about by a member of the boy's group sidling up to you in the playground and saying, "Paul thinks you're well fit and wants to go out with you, innit,'" with you and your girlfriends collectively swooning at this Casanova's artful approach. You'd then maybe talk to each other in your English class, swap notes in Science and walk home together, snog for about half an hour before then ignoring each other for a full week. Being a teenager is HARD, man!
One particular romantic highlight for me was at our after-prom party, when the 16-year-old me spent the night attached to the face of a friend's older brother, who I thought was literally the HEIGHT of sophistication. It was proper, full-on washing machine snogging, tongues everywhere. Horrendous. It must have looked like we were actually eating each other.
During the period of 19 -21, I had a real run of dating complete weirdos. I think I just gave anyone a shot. You know that old adage, "Throw enough shit at the wall and some of it will stick"? That was me. Flinging shit at every wall.
Therefore, my dating history is littered with the car crashes of nights spent cringing, or trying to think up decent excuses of how to get out of the pub without being murdered.
I once went on a date with a guy I'd gone to college with, and bumped into in the pub when completely bladdered and decided it was a FANTASTIC idea to meet up the next day.
He picked me up and I noticed that every song that played in his car was -- in chronological order -- the playlist of favorite songs I had posted on my Facebook about 6 months previously. Coincidence? I hope so. We went to a pub and had the most awkward lunch ever, as he kept dropping into conversation things that he'd obviously read on my Facebook page and it made me think maybe he was a bit stabby and potentially wanted to fashion a dress out my skin or something equally sassy. Not a winner.
Maybe one of the least successful evenings of my relationship history was a "date" I went on with Evil Matt.
We met on a night out and got on like a house on fire -- we were inseparable all night, sparks flew, we went home together and spent the night. As he drove me home the next morning -- through the back roads, natch -- he told me he had a girlfriend of THREE YEARS -- after he had specifically told me he was single all the way through the evening.
Not only that, but his girlfriend found out, dumped him and then proceeded to attempt to make my life hell for the next year by screaming "SLAAAAGGG!" at me whenever she saw me in the pub, which was nice. EUGH EVIL MATT. The worst bit was I carried on sleeping with him for about 6 months! If I could go back and tell the 19-year-old me off, I would. No self-respect.
I remember a date I went on after being chased down the road on my way to work by an older guy with a walking stick. A stick not because he needed one, but because he thought it made him look jaunty (he admitted that. SRLSY). He chased me down the road to ask me out and because I was a needy little girl desperate for love and affection I said yes against my better judgment, despite one of his opening lines being, "What's you favorite smell? I like the smell of cut grass in the morning."
He took me to a Chinese restaurant that used to be a bingo hall and ordered a bottle of wine and then sent it back and ordered another, and then sent THAT ONE back because it was "muck." I was 20 and would have been happy with a pint of snakebite. He was rude to the waiting staff and actually snapped his fingers when he wanted something. He also spent the whole time telling me how successful he was and how much money he had, which made my fanny snap shut like a bulldog clip. We did NOT date again.
Somehow, I miraculously managed to claw it back on meeting my boyfriend at 21, and we went on some truly awesome dates. My time had finally come! The photo below was taken on one of the first. ALL CLASS.
Have you got any particularly standout horrendous dates? Ever thought you were on the brink of being murdered? Did you continue to shag a bloke who was terrible to you time and time again? Share in the comments! It's super cathartic!

Quick Navigation:
This panel contains the following hormones and metabolites:
Organic Acids:
Many doctors use urinary hormone profiles as an integral part of natural hormone replacement, dosage adjustments, and monitoring.
The use of dried urine as a testing method combines new and innovative state of the art technology capable of measuring lower concentrations of hormones such as estrogen and its metabolites, in both men and women. This dried urine profile can be used in place of blood testing; however, it is ideal to use in combination with blood tests for hormones, especially for more complex hormone issues since it captures more hormones and metabolites than most blood tests.
All necessary components for the collection are included in a conveniently packaged kit with detailed instructions for your in-home collection. Please read all instructions before the day of collection. You will be collecting four timed urine samples throughout the day (two collections in the AM, one before dinner, and one before bedtime). Filter paper strips are dipped, hung, and dried after each collection time point. Once dried, the filter paper strips are easy to ship in a pre-paid UPS envelope which is provided with your kit.
Results take 2-3 weeks from the time the laboratory receives your sample. This test is not available in Pennsylvania.

Style | Days of Unnormalcy
It's cold, or as I recently heard 'proper New York winter cold'. Now, I've never been to New York in the winter, only in summers; and as a child I associated New York with the place where you were standing for hours in a traffic jam stuck between smelly garbage lorries (the one in front of us slowly dropping waste onto our car bonnet). But that's ages ago and surely all changed... Here in the (cold) present I picked red for the simple reason that it's supposed to give you heat. Still the hands were frozen after the shoot, but I hear it's gonna warm up soon.
sweater: pringle sports/ vintage, skirt: miu miu, coat: topshop, scarf: from mum, boots: ash, bag: diy
Take 10 | The Asos Cape
I was suspicious of the cape. No arms and a billowy shape… Way too much fashion drama for my sober soul. But when I limped over Leicester Square (why do I think it's a good idea to do my Christmas shopping in 4-inch heels?), laden with bags, this guy runs after me, comes to a screeching halt and says: "I just wanted to tell you that you're the most elegantly dressed woman I've seen." And while I was (obviously!) thinking: 'These Skandinavian tourists should really drink less; he's definitely got a problem with his sight... and anyway, what does he think London is? Some kind of romantic Italian city?', giving him the now-now-young-man-you-mustn't-approach-ladies-walking-by-themselves look, I couldn't but think 'Aaaahh, nothing like a bit of drama dressing!' (…and torturous heels. Come no!)
Style | On Being Idle
Rediscovering clothes is sweet. You've totally forgotten about them and if they hadn't been rotting in a corner of your wardrobe they might long have made it to the Oxfam shop. But laziness be praised, there they are, and 6 years later Sarah's tattered school bag and old flares seem strangely attractive. Also totally stocked up on silk shirts in the sales.
trousers: new look, shirt: rag & bone, shoes: zara, belt: 2nd hand, t-shirt: cos, bag: h&m kids
Style | Pink & Grey, Grey & Pink
See, I'm trying with se calahs; and with these trousers. But they have not become my friends. (The trousers I mean, the colours I'm still working on.) I had this vision of oversized, manly leg wear, but they are just oversized – and awkward. At least I found a way to keep them up. Originally I wanted to sew on loops, but adding one metal clasp at the back does the job just as well and was so much easier. The colours? It's an adaptation process, no?
DIY | Dye-Oh-Why
I remember way back I said I'd write a post about the tie-dye leggings, but I've been procrastinating for the simple fact that the whole thing is so easy I fear you'll say: 'Duh! Why is she writing about this?' But a promise is a promise… & in the end it's a question of addition and subtraction. Or only addition. Or only subtraction. Either you change the colour by dyeing the garment (as I did with the leggings which used to be neon yellow) and then you dunk it into bleach – which will take colour away again (with unknown outcome).* Or you just dunk-dye directly, like I did with this silk blouse (I found for £4 in a 2nd hand store yesterday. Unused, with price labels still attached; someone obviously didn't fancy the salmon colour.) Just take some hand dye, dunk around, and Bob''s your uncle. Duh? Told you so.
*You've got to keep in mind that bleach destroys the fabric, so careful with that. You can wrap elastic bands or some kind of rope around the clothes to get a tie-dye effect. And naturally you need to adapt your treatment to what the fabric can take. It's all highly experimental… Which is all the fun, really.

One of the best things at Fashion Week must be meeting others bloggers. I really enjoyed that so much last time! And while in September I was all all wide-eyed innocence this February I want to be organized and photograph the people I meet. And even though some people (hello Nic!) suspect I'm a bit of a fashion sadist making my poor models shiver in the cold or jump half-naked on freezing beaches I've got a caring side, too… Really, I do! I bring my biggest fur coat to the shoots and hot coffee. So, don't fear me – and hey, lets meet up if you're there!

Style | The Weirdness of the Skinny
Let's face it, the skinny is a strange trouser shape, no? When I put them on in the morning they make me feel like a sausage. Not very flatteringly peeled in… But then you add some high heeled boots and a sweater and a blazer, or a cardigan, and it all comes together nicely.* Because in the end they just are a form of glorified leggings, i.e. the perfect blank canvas. And while fashion editors around the world keep repeating their mantra 'Skinnies are dead, skinnies are DEAD, they are SO DEAD' they may retreat in summer (I mean, who wants to be a sweaty, hot sausage? Really!), but when I checked the pre-autumn collections there they were again, perhaps a teensie-weensie bit wider, but still pretty skinny… It's more evolution than revolution, I guess.
*At least I like to think so, though I recently received a comment from Mr/Mrs Anonymous telling me I was WAAAYY too old to wear my trousers the way I do. Heeelloo, anon fashion police, please go away and bother someone else – or at least share your identity so we could have a discussion from which age on women must not be allowed to wear whatever they like anymore. (Although just the idea to have to discuss something like this makes me fall asleep.)

Life | Let the Knitting Commence
In situations of stress or excitement where do you go? Exactly, to the bathroom! Which is where you could have found me before my machine knitting course started this weekend. Ahh, smelly toilets… reminded me of school, of an atmosphere dedicated to learning and creativity. It's been too long! The knitting machines are difficult beasts – at least for me. It seemed all the others had already finished their first sweater (kiiidding, we don't 'do' sweaters. We think outside the box.... it's Central Saint Martin's, dammit) and I was still fiddling and breaking needles. But thanks to ever-patient, awesome teacher Berni I got it eventually, and then, believe me, there was no stopping anymore… A world of endless purly possibilities has opened.
Thank you for all your uplifting words regarding my Big Whine . You're the Best!
Life | Mundanities
If you don't want to be bored by my inner drama queen just skip the text and go to the pretty picture because while I would love to entertain you with my wonderful artistic existence life has decided that this week it was time for a bit of Real World Training! So life said to me: Come on, sloppy, enough of this meditating over pictures and arranging words in neat patterns… I will give you: 1 broken shower (wanna be an artist? How about smelly artist??), 1 TV box giving up its will to live, 1 car mysteriously filling up with litres and litres of water and losing its exhaust, 1 washing machine going into overdrive and flooding the kitchen and – extra bonus – I will send the man (who normally sorts life out for you) away (but not before letting him miss his flight, just for the fun of it…).
Boohoo! I so would like to do a Gillian McKeith, but that might seem a wee bit overdramatic, even for me. So it's time for gritting the teeth and thinking of people with real problems (Hello Queensland! Hello Brazil mud slides!)… Here's to wiping kitchen floors & anyway, what else could go wrong?*
I leave you with Morgaine wearing Rick Owens. Sheer joy and a bit of kitschy sunset for wounded souls. Happy weekend!

Style | The Things to Come
Before very soon the whole autumn/winter fashion thing will start again I sat down to do a bit of summer trend brainstorming, and I figured it's really easy: Just wear red + purple, purple + orange, orange + yellow, yellow + blue, blue + green, green + cyan, cyan + purple, purple + orange + red, red + blue + green… and if this isn't colour intensive enough go for fluorescent. To keep this rainbow happiness in balance there is WHITE. Not beige, not camel, not off-white – no, REAL WHITE. In other words… good, old plain white. And, it must be a recession thing… DIY is a big trend too. Crochet, fringing, knitting or weaving... No matter if you buy it or do-it-yourself, you'll be hip. Lots of 70s/ early 80s influences, which come with loads of satin, sheer and lurexy fabrics (I really, really want a lurex sweater. Nearly bought an Isabel Marant lurex dress in the sales, but when I stepped out of the changing room, just to find myself next to a girl checking herself in the mirror wearing exactly the same dress I couldn't do it. – And yes, she looked much better in the dress than I did).
Personal favourites? ¾ length skirts, flared trousers and maxi skirts worn with t-shirts. I've also totally fallen for the Jil Sander 'plastic bag' look (mine's from Sainsbury's; so much for personal recession decisions). But you won't see me in ruffles, florals or big prints (no fruits, thank you. Animals? Maybe).
What about you? Any favourite looks?

Art | Come to the Circus
Remember my raving about the new blogger's bookazine 'Circus'? The post lead to a) me finally cancelling my Vogue subscription. I just got too bored by the concept of 'Look-at-this-beautiful-world-which-you'll-never-be-part-of-and-can't afford-anyway' message, and with the ascendence of street blogs the glossy, photoshopped-to-death pictures just started looking strange to me. Not that I'm never ever going to look at Vogue or Harper's again (can't enter a train without a magazine anyway), it just isn't the source of fashion information the way it used to be for me anymore.
But b) much more important – the lovely people of Herznote sent me two Circus magazines to give away. So if you are interested in receiving a free copy (the mag comes with a cute cotton shopping bag claiming 'I don't consider myself a model') just add to your comment: "I want a magazine!" (or something along these lines)* and you'll be included in the draw.
And in case you can't wait to get your hands on one of these amazing, artistic, entertaining, 3-lingual bookazines (or if you are not a lucky winner…) – you can read more about and buy your own Circus magazine here (& if you add the voucher code PSYNOPSIS you get £3 off the price. Don't ask me how and if it works, I'm just the messenger… So go shoot someone else. NOOOOO, don't do that!)
*until Sunday, the 16th of January 2011.

2 days of not checking emails, twitter or google and the world is a different place… A congresswoman was shot by a mad loner (nomen est omen, no?), Emmanuelle Alt is editor-in-chief of French Vogue (exciting!, I definitely have a thing for her, but guess I'm not alone here), Victoria Beckham is pregnant with child no. 4*… and I still like grey and glitter.

Take 10 | Tesco Couture
Tesco and couture is an association that doesn't come naturally, which perhaps is the reason it's not 'Tesco Couture' but 'F&F Couture by Tesco'. (No idea what the F&F stands for.) Couture it is not, but the trousers, picked for me by Ellie are pure wool, sewn well, nicely lined and comfortable (which is probably also due to the fact that the sizes are quite generous, hence the rolled down waistband to keep them UP!). The triangle shaped pockets and cuffed legs are neat details; the pleats at the backside not so much – unless you really fancy a 'puffy bottom'. But then, they might be responsible for the comfortable feel.
Final verdict? Not exactly cheap, more office than equestrian, but good quality and comfy. (And I think they are on sale now…)

And tennis… The only time I came close to a tennis court in the last few months was when I took this picture of Morgaine. I miss playing, but the temperatures need to go up few degrees. And tiiiime - I need time! Got a hunch on that level nothing will change this year… Same old, same old.
Thank you, Morgaine, for modelling.

Style | Ethical Dumbo of Unchallenged Nature
I didn't even set out to do something good; I was just hunting for a bargain… And pure happiness spread over superficial me when I discovered this leather jacket in the sales, which I thought was very Rick Owenesque, but at a much lower price (especially when reduced. The blasted Rick Owens leather jackets don't even go on sale anymore, they are just too desired…). Aaanyway, when I checked out Edun at home I learned that it's an ethical label founded by Bono's wife Ali Hewson offering organic clothes produced under fair working conditions in Africa (and I guess other countries too since this jacket was made in China). Bon, no? (so lame, sorry.)
Do you go for 'ethically' produced?

People | Guten Morgaine
I hadn't seen Morgaine for ages. First she had disappeared to Amsterdam to do some far out party job (still don't really understand how you get paid to party, but it sounds well good), now she's at uni and plays polo the whole day (at least this is how I fantasize uni life should be, she tells me she actually also works hard. Pfffft…) When I asked her if we could do some shots she suggested 'bikini-in-the-snow'. But until we finally met the snow was gone and I pinned her down to bikini-at-the-beach. It was snowing, it was freeeezing… Gee, I like girls with some Oomph!

Style | Colourphobic Daze
As someone whose main experience with wearing colours consists of putting them on enthusiastically in the morning just to change into something black/grey/beige/brown (okay, caaaamel) after breakfast because otherwise the whole day would feel weird, the new year resolution to wear more colours is no mean feat. But today I learned that orange is just a variation of brown, belonging to the same colour spectrum of 620-585 nanometers (actually it's the other way round - brown is a variation of orange - but that doesn't really matter in my world) there's really NO excuse for for avoiding geoluhread* anymore.
What about you? Colourphob or colourphil?

Philip Morris International Inc. is starting a round of medical studies for new tobacco products, with ideas to market those products as soon as 2016.
In June 2012, the manufacturer of Marlboro and L&M cigarettes, commenced to promote the evolution of next-generation products that can provide new methods to consume nicotine. The project comes as consumers are demonstrating a greater motivation to try alternatives to regular cigarettes, including snus and e-cigarettes.
"We are starting eight medical studies in different areas and with various population groups and intend to extend the testing in 2014," said Chief Financial Officer Jacek Olczak.
Mr. Olczak said a discovery medical study presented in 2012 gave top-line outcomes that were based on the company's expectations and modeling. He said Philip Morris will also start behavioral research to identify how smokers understand the new products Philip Morris is creating. That study will be used for marketing aims.
To produce those products, Philip Morris is evaluating sites in Europe and could build several facilities for the project. Philip Morris expects to invest EUR500 million to EUR600 million over a three-year period.
Experts have said Philip Morris has a good track record when it goes to new-product production, aiming to success the company has had offering capsule products.
The new-product production comes as industrywide cigarette volume has slipped in Europe, especially in southern European countries, where there is high unemployment. Philip Morris has looked for increasing exposure to growing markets, especially in Asia, where adult populations are rising.
Altria Group, which offers Marlboro and L&M products only in the U.S., told that domestic tobacco consumers were also seeking to alternative products. The domestic market has seen stronger demand for smokeless tobacco and cigars nowadays, while shipments of regular cigarettes have dropped.
"The company is carefully supervising adult tobacco consumer interest in alternative tobacco products, and our tobacco companies are functioning internally and through partnerships to create novel new products for them," said Altria Chief Executive Marty Barrington.
Shares of Philip Morris increased 0.9 percent to $92.11 in recent trading, while Altria grows 0.5 percent to $34.94.

Mazanec shines in Admirals 2-1 win vs. Wild
Marek Mazanec stopped 25 shots to earn his 20th win of the season, while Justin Florek and Pontus Aberg provided the offense as the Admirals took a 2-1 win over the Iowa Wild on Friday night at Panther Arena.
The win was the second in a row for Milwaukee and got the team off on the right foot as they face a three-game-in-three night stretch this weekend.
The Admirals opened the scoring at the 7:03 mark of the opening period on Florek's second goal in as many games. The play started in the neutral zone when Mike Liambas won a battle along the board and dished the puck to Derek Army, who come in 2-on-1 with Florek into the Iowa zone. Army then chipped the puck over to Florek who went five-hole with a one-timer for a 1-0 lead.
Aberg put Milwaukee up by two 5:20 into the second period. With the Ads on a power-play Aberg held the puck near the left dot and sent a centering pass towards the high slot. However, the puck deflected off of Iowa defenseman Zach Palmquist and into the Wild net for Aberg's 24th goal of the season.
That tally moved him into a tie for fifth place in team AHL history with Simon Gamache for his 65th career goal.
The only blemish on the night for Mazanec was when he was unable to stop Sam Anas on a penalty shot at 11:26 of the third period.
The Admirals and Wild will both travel to Des Moines to complete the back end of their home-and-home set tomorrow night at 6 pm. Milwaukee is back home on Sunday afternoon when they play host to the Grand Rapids Griffins at 5 pm at Panther Arena.
Don't forget to follow the Admirals on Twitter (@mkeadmirals) and like us on Facebook.

A few years ago I learned the important lesson that marriage is a reflection of our relationship with Christ. Katie and I faced the biggest crisis of our marriage. I started pastoring Woodland Christian Church when it was fairly small. Within three years the congregation had tripled in size. I admit that before I became a pastor, I was completely unaware of how much work is actually involved in shepherding a church of even a few hundred people. I had been an Army officer, a supervisor at a distribution center for Target, and an elementary school teacher. But none of those occupations approached the amount of mental and emotional energy and sheer hard work pastoring entails!
We had no secretary or associate pastor at the time. Almost all of my waking hours were packed with studying, teaching, counseling, making phone calls, sending e-mails, meeting with people, addressing administrative responsibilities, and tending to benevolence issues. When I was home, I should have been an engaged father and husband. Unfortunately, I did not have much left for my family emotionally, mentally, or physically.
Although I was failing as a husband and father, I was able to convince myself I was still pleasing the Lord. I compartmentalized my life by saying, "I am a Christian first, a spouse second, a parent third, and an employee fourth." Instead, I should have said, "I am a Christian spouse, a Christian parent, a Christian employee." The danger of seeing ourselves as a Christian first and a spouse second is we can find ourselves believing the lie I bought into at the time: "If I can be a good pastor, I can please God even though I am not the best husband." The truth is that I was a poor husband, and I should have recognized that meant I was not pleasing the Lord. Continue reading "Marriage Is a Reflection of Our Relationships with Christ"

Searching for employment is essentially one of the many responsibilities that we have to accept as a part of adult life. With numerous factors affecting the job market at any given time, it is impossible to predict how difficult or easy a job search will be. While some careers normally seem to enjoy a consistent demand, others may face an excess, therefore causing it to be more difficult to find employment in one's chosen field.
Whereas it used to be the norm for most people to spend their lives relatively close to the area they were born in, it is now commonplace for individuals to go anywhere in the world in their search for employment. At the same time as this change has been taking place, the internet has allowed individuals to find viable income sources without ever leaving the house.
The Sunday classifieds have always been a popular source for local jobs, but the internet has markedly changed the way a job search needs to be performed. The older method of going from one place to another, turning in resume after resume, is now a thing of the past.
The online job fair is a good example of this. With online job fairs, individuals can send inquiries and resumes over the internet with just a click of the mouse. This gives the job seeker the benefit of saving time and gas, while rescuing employers from the inevitable massive piles of cover letters. The only time the job seeker will have to leave the house is when an interview is scheduled.
If the job seeker wishes to find employment in a certain trade, their search can be aided by subscribing to trade magazines, or even moving to where there is a heavy demand for their chosen vocation.
When an individual follows a specialized career path, more often than not they will need to belong to a special association or union. A membership with one of these organizations has a number of benefits, including knowing which companies are hiring and what benefits are commonly being offered. The vast majority of these groups also have forums and message boards where members can give each other firsthand career advice. Research is always the key to landing solid employment.
Over the last decade, an increasingly unstable job market has encouraged many individuals to opt for self employment. The self-made entrepreneur has become quite the phenomenon in recent years. Aside from the employment, it is also Important to be aware of the existence of industrial deafness compensation.

It's too primitive that lumberjacks are always seen as the most manly of all people. So what if they have muscles of iron, and spend days at a time, uniting with nature and flinging mighty axes all day? Internet critics also have cramped up muscles, unite with nature every five to seven hours, and fling mighty keys up and down. Still, I'm yet to see a single game that gives the credit where it's due, and features the mighty and the powerful, as the ultimate example of manliness. But, while the ungrateful, primitive culture moves down the familiar road, we get Lumber Jacked, another game, where lumberjack is the mighty hero yet again. It's not like I remember any other games with lumberjacks, but there have to be lots of them, or this whole paragraph makes no sense.
Lumber Jacked features Joe, a lumberjack, whose precious wood got taken by the sneaky hairy beavers, and now he needs to return it at all costs. Joe is but a simple lumberjack, so he only knows how to do a double-jump, and a deadly flying punch of bloody murder. The game consists of a number of levels, in which Joe needs to get to the bossy beaver, and smack it as hard as possible. Three stars are awarded, if the player also manages to get a collectible shirt, and reach the end of the level in time. Of course, there are many obstacles on the way, like overly aggressive beavers, fish, and some other indescribable things, as well as lots and lots of spikes. Lumber Jacked is quite challenging, and I had to replay some levels for several times, even without trying to get all the stars. The controls are simple, although they do require some getting used to – especially the wall-jumping.
Although controlling the hero isn't perfectly simple, and I got stuck in simple obstacles quite often, like a fly before an open window, Lumber Jacked is still interesting to play. It's also a bit repetitive, but that means that reaching the perfect score requires knowing intricately every mechanic and timing the whole way through the level, instead of relying on gimmicks. All in all, Lumber Jacked is a nice, and somewhat original platformer.

Home > News > Bronson Echocardiography Lab Re-Accredited
Published on July 29, 2010
KALAMAZOO, Mich. — Bronson Methodist Hospital was recently granted re-accreditation for its adult and pediatric Echocardiography (Echo) Lab by the Intersocietal Commission for the Accreditation of Echocardiography Laboratories (ICAEL), marking the fifth straight ICAEL accreditation for the hospital.
This accreditation recognizes Bronson's commitment to high quality patient care and quality diagnostic testing to detect and manage heart disease. Echocardiography is a test that uses sound waves to create a moving picture of the heart to view structure, movement and blood flow. To receive accreditation, Bronson voluntarily signed up for review by ICAEL, an independent agency.
In 1998, Bronson became the first hospital in Michigan to receive Pediatric Echo Accreditation. Today, it is one of only seven hospitals in the state, and the only one in southwest Michigan, to be granted both Adult and Pediatric Echo Accreditation. Annually, Bronson's Echo Lab serves as a diagnostic resource to more than 4,000 adults and, as the area's only children's hospital, Bronson provides this important cardiac test to more than 2,000 children.
For information about heart care at Bronson, visit bronsonhealth.com/heart. To learn more about ICAEL accreditation and what it means to patients and families, visit Icael.org.
Cardiac Care at Bronson
At Bronson, teams of cardiac specialists are on staff 24/7, ready to diagnose and treat both adults and children. Cardiothoracic and vascular services include prevention and education, early detection, minimally invasive procedures, surgical interventions, personalized rehabilitation programs and home telemonitoring. In fact, Bronson Methodist Hospital has received national recognition for quality of care and patient outcomes in cardiac care, such as being designated as a UnitedHealth PremiumSM cardiac specialty center and being awarded the Thomson Reuters 100 Top Hospitals(r) for cardiovascular care (2008).
About Bronson Methodist Hospital (bronsonhealth.com)
Bronson Methodist Hospital, located at 601 John St. in downtown Kalamazoo, Mich., is the flagship of Bronson Healthcare Group, a not-for-profit healthcare system serving all of southwest Michigan and northern Indiana. With 380 licensed beds and all private rooms, Bronson Methodist Hospital provides care in virtually every specialty — cardiology, orthopedics, surgery, emergency medicine, neurology, oncology — with advanced capabilities in critical care as a Level I Trauma Center; in neurological care as a Joint Commission certified Primary Stroke Center; in cardiac care as the region's first accredited Chest Pain Emergency Center; in obstetrics as the leading BirthPlace and only high-risk pregnancy center in southwest Michigan, and in pediatrics as one of only five children's hospitals in the state.
A national leader in healthcare quality, Bronson is currently ranked by Thomson Reuters as one of the nation's 100 Top Hospitals. The hospital is a 2005 recipient of the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award, the nation's highest presidential honor for quality and performance excellence.
In 2009, Bronson received the AHA McKesson Quest for Quality Prize awarded annually to only one U.S. hospital and joined the top five percent of hospitals in the nation to be designated a Magnet Hospital for Nursing Excellence. It is also ranked in the top five percent of hospitals in the nation as a 2009-10 HealthGrades Distinguished Hospital for Clinical Excellence and as a recipient of the 2010 HealthGrades Emergency Medicine Excellence award.

"Grow Younger EP is bursting with imagination; it's the sort of record where dignified string arrangements bleed into gauche prog-rock synth lines and twee-inflected ballads bloom into psych stompers. So much is going on in these songs that it's no wonder so many players are involved, but the music never feels too busy or undermines itself. Everyone seems to have bought into the same master plan, and the results are highly pleasant. Enter Friend Roulette's expansive sonic realm below."
"Their songs are a mesmerizing landscape in which sounds seem to float. Complex, layered percussion pulls together Julia's breathy vocals and Matt's fluid guitar."
"Like an old Noir film, Friend Roulette never gives away the plot, but the distinct pleasure of discovering their dreamy Cabaret texture is enough to keep your ears duly occupied during the journey."
"I Guess" is the kind of rhythmic art pop that Sufjan did on Age of Adz and St. Vincent did on Strange Mercy, and if you liked those albums, you might find something to dig here too."
"Their songs are eclectic and musical in the purest sense of the word, the way Van Dyke Parks's music is real musician's stuff."
"While Friend Roulette globetrots through Parisian, Arabian and 18th century influences onstage, there's a core group of five or six dancers right below them, slowly moving to the music via mix of jam-band hippy dance, snake charming, and something seen in Cirque du Soleil."
"What I found really enticing about Friend Roulette is their multiple percussionists. For a lot of performers this could get out of hand, but the professional level of orchestration across each song solidifies how amazing each of these musicians is."

Niche Assessment Program – For HHS SBIR/STTR Phase I Awardees
THE APPLICATION PERIOD FOR THE 2017-2018 NIH NICHE ASSESSMENT PROGRAM IS NOW CLOSED. The next application period will be for the 2018-2019 Niche cohort which will open in October 2018.
The Niche Assessment Program is designed to help small businesses "jump start" their commercialization efforts. All active HHS (NIH, CDC, FDA) SBIR/STTR Phase I awardees and Phase I Fast-Track awardees (by grant or contract) are eligible to apply. Registration is on a first-come, first-serve basis!
The Niche Assessment Program provides market insight and data that can be used to help small businesses strategically position their technology in the marketplace. The results of this program can help small businesses develop their commercialization plans for their Phase II application, and be exposed to potential partners. Services are provided by Foresight Science & Technology of Providence, RI.
Technology Niche Analyses® (TNA®) are provided by Foresight, for one hundred and seventy-five (175), HHS SBIR/STTR Phase I awardees. These analyses assess potential applications for a technology and then for one viable application, it provides an assessment of the:
- Needs and concerns of end-users;
- Competing technologies and competing products;
- Competitive advantage of the SBIR/STTR-developed technology;
- Market size and potential market share (may include national and/or global markets);
- Barriers to market entry (may include but is not limited to pricing, competition, government regulations, manufacturing challenges, capital requirements, etc.);
- Market drivers;
- Status of market and industry trends;
- Potential customers, licensees, investors, or other commercialization partners; and,
- The price customers are likely to pay.
Each participant receives an in-depth report of Foresight's findings. Oftentimes the small businesses can use this information in their commercialization plans which are part of their Phase II applications.
For more information, see Notice NOT-OD-17-128 that was issued in the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts on October 4, 2017.

See Why This Tiny Beach House On The Water Made Me Fall In Love
This "Tiny Beach House On The Water" is the perfect place to stay if you are in need of a vacation. There is nothing better than this cute tiny house situated right on the beach.
This tiny beach house on the water is situated on the shoreside on beautiful Orcas Island. For those not familiar, Orcas Island is one of the larger San Juan Islands which are located in the Northwest corner of Washington State. Orcas Island is not named for the orca whale, but for this Juan Vicente de Güemes Padilla Horcasitas y Aguayo, 2nd Count of Revillagigedo, the Viceroy of Mexico he was know to send an exploration expedition to the Pacific Northwest in 1791. This tiny house is a welcoming little cabin called The Boathouse. This is actually a vacation rental cabin situated right on the beach of a protected bay. The online brochure states that youll be able to step off your spacious deck onto Orcas finest nobank, smooth pebble beach, youre truly just a couple strides from high tide, sounds perfect! This tiny house was an actual boathouse for a resort at one time. Then the owner, Mike Fischer, re-imagined it into an environmentally friendly hideaway. There is custom made furniture throughout the tiny beach house, including a headboard made of teak reclaimed from an old boat. The cabin is a very private spot decorated with beach stone door knobs and hooks, and aged rough sawn millwork. There are water views from every angle of this lovely tiny beach house on the water.
The small house movement also known as the tiny house movement, is a famous description for the architectural and social movement that advocates living simply in small homes. In the United States the average size of new single family homes grew from 1,780 square feet in 1978 to 2,479 square feet in 2007, and to 2,662 square feet in 2013, despite a decrease in the actual size of the average family. Reasons for this include increased material wealth and prestige. The tiny house movement is a return to houses of less than 1,000 square feet. Frequently the distinction is made between small between 400 square feet and 1,000 square feet, and tiny houses that are less than 400 square feet, with some houses as small as 80 square feet. Downsizing to a tiny house is a great way to do away with large mortgages, hydro bills and all the stuff that goes into a large house, and a way to live a more sustainable lifestyle.

Crunchy Fish and Chips
Mix the above items together in a bowl and thin the mixture with water or milk to get the consistency you like; the thinner the batter the lighter the coating. The egg will make this batter crunchy.
One last note, you will find that dusting your fish with flour before battering will help keep the batter on your fish.

Look at this amazing real life Pokemon battle
Trending on Twitter in Korea today is this amazing photo of a real life Pokemon battle! User @recruit0328 and his friends recreated a battle from the game -- specifically, a battle between a Dugtrio and what appears to be a Machamp (and with extra set of arms, he'll likely win!). We kind of wish people did this at the beach all the time -- it's almost better than surfing!

Jynx MazeRequest Her Follow
Model Information
Measurements: 34a-24-36
Her pretty head completely covered in a leather bondage mask while cuffed to a handrail in a public bathroom, ass fucked, passed around, pinched, smacked and stretched beyond reason… Jynx Maze did more in her first scene than most pornstars do in their whole career. Looking to get into the business, she had applied to a few sites, but a BDSM-based company was the first to reply. So began a career that stretched the limits of the genre… and her asshole. Jynx claims she was more concerned about her likeability than the savage fucking her ample tits and top-tier, jumbo booty would receive in a bar full of strangers. The producers didn't like her. They loved her. Her athletic body has powered through dozens of hardcore scenes since, and hundreds of scenes altogether. Maze is bold and open about it all, giggling as she candidly explains situations that would make most people blush – like that time she pushed whipped cream out of her gaping asshole. "I like gonzo. I like going all out, free-styling it. My motto is: what happens, happens." And fucking hell, a lot happens to the tiny native of Long Beach, California. But of all the things the smouldering half Peruvian will do, she doesn't do g/g scenes. "I just look at it like… hey are you gay? No. I'm not gay either." Jinx also makes sure to keep her sex safe, pointing out that the 'real world' doesn't provide checks like the industry, so she uses condoms in her private life. After teaching us a thousand filthy lessons, we'd like to thank her for looking out for our health, too!

Sweden has a long history of fructifying the top of the pop crop. Beginning with the dancefloor vintage of ABBA and Roxette, the Nordic country has since gone on to produce some of the greatest pop artists to have graced our terrestrial planet.
Nowadays, Sweden is responsible for countless 21st century crooning troubadours (Jens Lekman), clubbing kings (Swedish House Mafia), nu-pop divas (Robyn), indie divinities (Lykke Li) and alt-electronica maestros (The Knife) – artists whose trend-setting sonics have permeated the outline of their Scandinavian homeland to infect all corners of the globe.
Icona Pop are the latest to add to this poptastic register. Comprising of Caroline Hjelt & Aino Jawo, Icona Pop first caused a minor-riot among the blogosphere after they dropped their flawless debut single, "Manners," in July of last year. This girl-power "Single Ladies" paean of the electro-pop world saw Hjelt and Jawo irresistibly vilify non-committal ex-boyfs with killer game console synths and all-conquering sing-along choruses:
"Manners/Take a second look and you'll see/There is no one like me/Manners/You better reconsider/Cause you will never do better"
In October, the duo followed up "Manners" with a debut EP, Nights Like This. The EP was a critical success, with endless music bloggers bewitched by this bundle of 8-bit sass-pop which had mysteriously landed on their post pile. Stand-out jam, title-track "Nights Like This," was swiftly announced Icona Pop's second single, accompanied by a Tarantino-style video during which Hjel and Jawo transform into tortilla-munching cowboy kidnappers. The flick was an ironically fitting embodiment of this effortlessly cool twosome's beautiful yet blackhearted attitude, an attitude which just so happened to catch the attention of Mercury Records' team of A&Rs…
Having secured a major deal with Mercury, these Stockholm vixens are currently busy working on their debut album with coveted producers, Elof Loelv and Patrick Berger. Look out for a full-length release from around March time, but until then, head on over to Icona Pop's Soundcloud to hear more from Sweden's latest and greatest pop export.

Hi All,
I don't currently have a TTR250 but am seriously considering one, I have a couple of friends with raids and have read a lot about the big trips done on these little bikes. I am a big yamaha fan and sold my wr450F earlier this year with the intention of downsizing and increasing service intervals!! I do also have a couple of XT's, one in build and a 1986 55w that was restored five years ago. It said post a picture, and as i don't have a TTR yet I thought i might as well post the XT, hope this doesn't cause offence
Looking forward to reading about my next bike !! cheers
Hi Andy and welcome

They don't get easy problems, either. On one of the days I visited Newton's class, the teens were assigned this objective: Students will find total distance traveled by a particle using an absolute value integral.
I had no idea what that meant, and still don't. But the 20 students were burrowing deep into the issue. At one point, a girl asked classmates whether one part of the problem mattered. Another shot back "yes," and the 30-year-old Newton explained why. Soon, he asked for someone to explain the answer for the larger question.
As the discussion evolved, Newton constantly asked questions. He told me that he did so because homework showed some of the students had used the wrong method. At the beginning of each class, Newton tests students on their homework assignments so he knows which areas to drill into.
Each time I visited Newton's classes, I saw the fundamentals of effective teaching. It's no wonder that Newton, a University of Texas at Austin graduate, was selected Dallas Teacher of the Year for 2012-13.
Newton's assignments are clear. His students are engaged in their learning. He interacts with them as opposed to simply lecturing or sitting behind his desk. He tests his students regularly and uses the results to guide his interventions. And he uses multiple strategies to solicit answers, including getting students to pair up to solve problems.
These key elements lead to a student-centered approach. Newton was not the show. The learning was the focus.
He told me that he works on creating an open atmosphere so students can work out their thinking. "Sometimes you need to talk through a problem," he explained. When one student said his answer to a complicated question was "maybe," Newton chuckled, in his dry-humor way, that that was a reasonable response.
The humor doesn't mean Newton lacks control. He firmly let a late student know she was tardy again. And he didn't let the class wander. After a warm-up session when each class began, he gave students an assignment to show what they grasped. He seemed to keep a good pace.
Newton also knows his material. His grasp of complex math problems goes back to college.
He was an applied math major at UT and learned the pedagogical aspects of his profession through the UTeach program. Pioneered on the Austin campus, UTeach matches math and science majors with those who can instruct them on how to teach.
Knowing a subject is fundamental to good teaching, especially in math. The soft-spoken Newton can break down issues like trapezoidal rule into basic elements.
I've seen the qualities that Newton exhibits in other strong teachers in the district. Like Newton, they use humor, frame interesting questions and make content understandable.
What's more, the journal Education Next recently presented data showing that the academic strengths of teachers are rising. More educators have strong subject knowledge.
Yet on school tours with DISD Superintendent Mike Miles, I have seen instructors spending most of their time lecturing from overheads with kids yawning in the back of class, shades drawn and virtually no engagement.
To put it bluntly: Neither Dallas nor the nation has enough good teachers. That's why Miles is anchoring his strategies in better teaching and why districts across the country are grappling with better ways to evaluate instructors.
The lack of effective teaching shows up in data, too. Miles acknowledges that only 10 percent of Dallas students are on a track for college. And American students' 2012 scores on the respected Program for International Student Assessment were flat, while students in numerous other countries passed us by.
Josh Newton is ample proof that top-notch teaching can provide huge boosts to students. Some of his have gone on to prestigious universities, including receiving money for tuition.
At age 30, Newton also shows teachers don't necessarily need years of experience. The fundamentals are what matter.

Adam Steinberg named new M Tennis head coach (slam dunk hire)
With the recent firing of former Michigan Tennis Coach Bruce Berque, Dave Brandon had to fill the HC spot for Michigan's 3rd-oldest sport.
He hit a grand slam with this head coaching hire after already making a pretty damn good hire just months ago with Dr. Marcelo Leonardi being named the Water Polo HC.
Adam Steinberg from Pepperdine. He put together a 265-92 record there as well as going 36-2 in 2006 en route to the NCAA National Championship.
In his 13 years at Pepperdine, Steinberg produced-
- 27 First Team ITA All-Americans
- 32 First Team All-West Coast Conference selections
- Won 10 WCC Tournament Championships as well as 2 WCC Regular Season titles.
- 10 NCAA Tournament appearances that included five Sweet 16s, one Elite 8, two Final 4s and the 2006 NCAA National Championship
- 10 of his 13 Pepperdine Wave teams finishing in the final Top-30 ITA rankings
He was named the 2006 ITA National Coach of the Year as well as being a 7-time WCC Coach of the Year recipient.
Having that kind of national success at a small school like Pepperdine is absolutely incredible.
ohio should fear this man because Michigan is coming for the top spot in the B1G.
Say what you want about Dave Brandon, but he has been one of if not the greatest AD of all-time in terms of his coaching hires and paying for quality, across the board of Michigan Athletics.
Men's Soccer, Baseball, Men's Track, Women's Lacrosse, Women's Basketball, Water Polo, Men's Tennis. Every one of those hires have been or are going to be slam dunk hires.
Not to mention the Beilein contract extension back in 2010-11 when many people were questioning him as well as paying bookoo bucks for Football coordinators.

The willow has long been a symbol of love, awareness, hope, and synchronicity. And the east, a symbol of intuition, teaching, and psychic energy.
Willows East was founded in 2014 as a virtual safe-haven for people on an intuitive journey, to better know themselves, and to find happiness in their daily lives. Our group of intuitives has since grown to more than 2,000 followers, teachers, and readers.
Meet the Founder - Gretchen Pearl
I'm Gretchen, practicing Intuitive and founder/creator of the Willows East Educational Community and the Willows East Intuitive Journal.
My Journey to Mindfulness
I'm still on this journey, and I'm on the same journey as you are. I may just be taking a different path, and I love that. In 2010, after the loss of a pregnancy, I began to experience beautiful signs and symbols, dreams and messages from my son. I also began to experience debilitating anxiety and depression. Though always a spiritual person and amateur ghost hunter, this moment above all others pinpointed the beginning of my search into what was on the "other side."
I soon found that it wasn't all woo-wooey stuff, rattling chains, and channeling spirit that would define me. It was much more about learning to find peace on my earthly journey. Nowadays, I encourage others to create their own daily ritual, to share their awareness journey with others, to use their intuition to connect with their higher power, God, Buddha, Jesus, and/or a spirit guide. To pray. To ask the universe for help. To live life in the present, with one foot in the physical world, and one in the spiritual.
And I'm working hard to do the same myself.
I hope the tools here at Willows East will help us on our journey.
Where We Are
Willows East is my spiritual "home" in the heart of the Green Mountains, Vermont. Here, the changing seasons inspire me to adapt, to connect, and to find peace and harmony in an ever-changing life.

Occipital neuralgia is a disorder of the nervous system that injures or inflames the occipital nerves, which are the nerves that extend from the top of spinal cord to the scalp, according to WebMD. Due to its similarity to other headaches, this condition should be accurately diagnosed for proper treatment.Continue Reading
When an injury, inflammation or nerve entrapment attack the occipital nerves, the nerves get compressed, leading to occipital neuralgia, explains WebMD. Although the cause of occipital neuralgia may not be traced in most cases, the risk factors include back head trauma, diabetes, neck tumors, gout and inflammation of the blood vessels.
Occipital neuralgia is associated with symptoms such as sharp, jabbing pain in the neck and the back of the head, throbbing and radiating pain originating from the base of the head toward the scalp, scalp tenderness, and light sensitivity, notes WebMD. A patient who experiences these symptoms should immediately seek medical care to prevent the condition from worsening.
The treatment for occipital neuralgia depends on the cause of the condition, states WebMD. Some of the treatment methods for occipital neuralgia include heat application to the neck, neck massage, over-the-counter anti-inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants and antidepressant medications. If these methods fail to work, the patient should undergo surgery to alleviate the pain.Learn more about Conditions & Diseases

How to Convert a Home Equity Line of Credit
If you have a home equity line of credit (HELOC), and you're nearing the end of the withdrawal period or if the adjustable interest rates are high, you can convert the line of credit to a conventional loan. While a HELOC allows the homeowner to withdraw money as needed, paying only interest on the withdrawn amount, you may want a traditional loan with set monthly payments. When you're ready to convert your HELOC, you have a few options.
Video of the Day
Step 1
Contact your bank about the current interest rates for a second mortgage. Interest rates are negotiable, and they depend upon your credit score and your payment history. Banks offer better interest rates for homeowners with higher credit scores.
Step 2
Choose the type of loan that best suits your needs. Your banker may suggest a fixed rate loan, extended over five or 10 years, depending upon your ability to make the monthly payments if you plan to stay in the home. However, if you plan to sell your home within three years, an adjustable rate loan with a low initial interest rate may save you the most money.
Step 3
Merge your HELOC with your mortgage in a refinance. This option may be better for homeowners who purchased their house when the interest rates were more than two points higher than today's rates. By refinancing the home and adding the HELOC, you will make only one monthly payment and you may save money on both loans.
Step 4
Supply proof of employment--up to six months of recent paycheck stubs or copies of your last two years of income taxes. In addition, list your current monthly payments, including car notes, minimum credit card payments, insurance premiums and all other recurring monthly debts.

I recently had the good fortune to discover a printer called the Irwin Hodson Company. They were originally founded in 1894 (!) as the Ben C. Irwin Company. They've moved buildings during that time, but have been at their present location at SE 9th near Powell for over 70 years!
If you ever wondered where to get vintage metal signs produced — look no farther!
Touring the facility made my mind race with all the possibilities. Keep an eye out for an upcoming line of greeting cards and some large format macro photography.
Irwin Hodson also printed all of our posters, postcards, yard signs, and booklets for Tour de Hives.
The most fascinating thing about this place is the old machines they still have in working order, blended with gorgeous modern digital printers on a massive scale. They were kind and allowed me to snap photos! (Click on the below images to see them larger.)
