Launch of Neptuno Atlético de Madrid Premium
Atlético de Madrid and CenterplateISG present Neptuno Atlético de Madrid Premium to Madrid businesses, the new Hospitality area for the new Atlético de Madrid stadium
On 4th October, CenterplateISG and Atlético de Madrid were delighted to officially launch to Madrid's business community Neptuno Atlético de Madrid Premium (Neptuno), the new Hospitality area for the club's new stadium which opens in August 2017.
CenterplateISG were represented by ISG CEO Andrew Hampel, ISG COO Richard Cheesman and COO of Centerplate UK, Adrian Dishington, while the Atlético de Madrid representatives included Club President Enrique Cerezo, Club CEO Miguel Angél Gil and first team player Juanfran Torres.
The event was held in the Neptuno Lounge in Madrid's Westin Palace Hotel, which has views of the plaza de Cánovas del Castillo, the traditional place of celebration for Atlético de Madrid´s supporters after a significant success and after which Neptuno has been named. The evening was hosted by prominent television presenter Gonzalo Miró and music was provided by internationally renowned DJ, Carlos Jean.
The event was opened and Neptuno was introduced by Club President Enrique Cerezo: "For everyone at Atlético de Madrid this launch is a reason to celebrate. As a result, we wanted to do it amongst friends, in an iconic location linked to our team's greatest triumphs." He went on to emphasise how the new stadium's Hospitality products will embody the core Atlético de Madrid values and how CenterplateISG is best placed to deliver the customer experience that Atlético's supporters deserve: "CenterplateISG and Atlético de Madrid have worked closely together in order to create the most luxurious VIP product for their supporters who want to be able to offer the best to their clients" [sic].
Following Enrique Cerezo was senior Neptuno Sales Executive Ana Molina, who presented the different Hospitality spaces available in the new stadium and their unique characteristics. Two key attributes of all offerings is that all seats have both access to an exclusive lounge space and seats situated within the stadium bowl so that every Neptuno member is able to savour the unique Atlético stadium atmosphere.
Then it was the turn of Juanfran Torres to discuss the excitement amongst the members of the first team squad regarding the move to the new stadium, all of whom recognise that a new stadium is essential to ensure the team continues to compete at the highest level.
Finally, Carlos Jean provided a testament to his experience as a Neptuno customer, before he then turned his attention to providing the evening's music and guests were able to take advantage of the food and drink provided and have a small taste what Atletico de Madrid will be able to offer to their Hospitality members in the very near future.
Andrew Hampel on behalf of CenterplateISG summarised what Neptuno will be offer to its members: "Neptuno will allow companies in Madrid to grow their business with existing customers, develop new customers and increase their revenues. Research has proved that VIP Hospitality at football is the most effective way to achieve this and we have created products to deliver this to all our members"

SOE Live 2013 recap: Everquest Next and other big reveals
Read all about Everquest Next's exciting features and other major announcements made during last week's SOE Live 2013.
SOE Live 2013 dumped an overload of never-before-known Everquest Next features and systems. We learned the first five confirmed Everquest Next classes coming to the upcoming next-gen MMO sequel: Rogue, Warrior, Tempest, Blademaster and Wizard. This is but a sampling of the more than 40 classes that will eventually unlock for fans as they progress into the game.
Armor will be basically limited to five-piece sets but extremely customizable, assured developers. Combat will allow for player killing but balanced to avoid griefing. Roles will be quite flexible, and combat content will be made so that no specific role or class will be required to win a fight.
Developers also made the eye-widening announcement that Everquest Next will have a related building MMO, Everquest Next Landmark, which will focus on freeform construction. Buildings and homes from Everquest Next might then be transferred by players to their Everquest Next accounts, which makes for a compelling and creation-based synergy.
PlanetSide 2 is preparing to pump out its new swamp-themed Hossin map, which will serve as one of the most central zones for the mmofps, and should hit the test server very soon. Developers also revealed that the Battle Island: Nexus, along with other battle islands, can host more than a hundred players at a time and should go live before 2013 ends.
Meanwhile, Everquest 2 will be giving out its Destiny of Velious expansion for free, which should delight free rpg fans who can now obtain level 85 Heroic characters and a spread of new content without having to spend a single cent.

Helping people create lifestyle businesses so they can find their success and be happy is what I LIVE for! I'm sorry you're feeling deflated. Not being serious and not being sure what to do to succeed are two different things. Obviously you need to be serious about it and it will be hard work, but you know that. Either way, it all starts with getting very clear about exactly what it is you want. You can't get where you want to go if you're not sure where that is.I launched a Success Challenge in January and I've decided to keep it available all the time. I'll be making some adjustments to the content because the participants felt that, although awesome, there was A LOT of material. However, I think this free challenge might be the perfect place for you to start. You can check it out and sign up here: http://www.awaken-dreams.com/success-challenge.

About Emilie & Puttylike | About the Puttyteam
For the first three years, I ran Puttylike by myself. As the site grew, I gradually started bringing other smart, creative, curious multipotentialites on board. And now? I couldn't be more proud to say that I work alongside some of the most interesting and passionate people around. Allow me to introduce… The Puttyteam!
Joel Zaslofsky // Puttytribe Connections + Operations Officer
Joel is the Connections + Operations Officer for the Puttytribe, the podcaster behind Smart and Simple Matters, and gives away his best resources at JoelZaslofsky.com. When he's not enjoying nature, making his wife smile, or playing with his two young sons around Edina, Minnesota, Joel's busy experimenting, being Paleo, reigniting his personal renaissance, and Experience Curating.
Neil Hughes // Staff Writer and Puttytribe Moderator
Neil is the author of Walking on Custard & the Meaning of Life, a comical and useful guide to life with anxiety. Along with writing more books, he puts his time into standup comedy, computer programming, public speaking and other things from music to video games to languages. He struggles to answer the question "so, what do you do?" and is worried that the honest answer is probably "procrastinate." You can find him at walkingoncustard.com and on Twitter as @enhughesiasm.
Nat Smith // Puttytribe Community Facilitator & Word Maestro
Nat uses her creative writing skills with the Puttytribe-wide newsletters, helps new puttypeep feel welcome, interacts with potential members (a.k.a. the public), and generally helps to make sure that everyone feels supported. Her trifecta is the intersection of creativity, self-growth, and relationships. Right now, she writes plays, but is also a teacher and informal coach invested in how story and connection impact our lives.
Erika Backberg // Puttytribe Events Jedi
Erika is our master for everything related to Puttytribe events. From workshops to special activities and the ever-present huddles, she's your woman. She also loves the intersection of people, systems, creativity, mindful transformation, community, service, and innovation (a.k.a. cultural design). At its most fundamental level, her work is about helping others to uncover their own potential.

SOURCE: Stratex Oil & Gas Holdings, Inc.
December 03, 2013 07:25 ET
WATERTOWN, CT--(Marketwired - December 03, 2013) - Stratex Oil & Gas Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB: STTX) ("Stratex" or "the Company") announced today that it had acquired certain working interests in the Jeffrey Lease (the Lease"), located in Callahan County, Texas. Stratex will conduct various drilling, workover and completion activities on the property. The Company will own a 64% working interest ("WI") and a 48.64% net revenue interest ("NRI") in what will initially encompass a 60 acre pooled tract. The seller will be entitled to a 12.5% back in WI (9.5% NRI), to be borne by all working interest owners. Stratex's after payout WI will be 56% (42.56% NRI).
All work to be done on the Lease will be of a fixed turnkey nature, wherein the Company will not be responsible for any cost overruns (if any), and would benefit from cost savings (if any). Stratex, as the majority WI owner, will initially have the right to participate in significant operational decisions and observe all aspects of the initial work program. Total consideration to be paid by Stratex will include a cash payment of $308,800, plus the assignment to the seller of 150,000 shares of common stock. The purchase was financed with existing cash on the Company's balance sheet.
The Lease currently includes 5 wellbores, of which 1 is active but currently shut in, 2 are former producers capable of conversion into injection/salt water disposal wells, and 2 are presently salt water disposal wells (one of which is capable of being converted back to producer status). The work program will be completed by yearend 2013. The 3 locations to be drilled by Stratex and other WI owners are all infill, within the productive limits of the EGN Field. The primary drilling objective of the 3 well infill program is the prolific King Sand, at a depth of approximately 1,500 feet. The consideration for the acquisition includes the entire cost of the work program. Upon completion of the work program, Stratex will have the right to assume the role of operator.
The Jeffrey Lease has produced continuously since the 1950s, and has produced in excess of 200,000 barrels of oil to date. The Lease is a portion of the larger EGN Field, which has produced better than 2 million barrels of oil. All WI owners in the Lease have agreed to enter into a 16,000 acre Area of Mutual Interest ("AMI"), which is centered around the Jeffrey Lease.
Depending upon the results of the work program, this project and general geographic region could represent a new core focus area for Stratex. Stephen Funk, Chairman and CEO, stated, "Stratex is excited at the prospect of adding meaningful incremental production and proved reserves, due to this acquisition. There are also deeper pool opportunities along stacked pay reservoir systems for future potential exploitation. We will actively be seeking bolt-on properties in order to increase our footprint within this area. Stratex's management remains fully committed to increasing shareholder value."

Freelance designers are an ingenious lot, and they use a variety of ways to land clients.
There is no one tried and true method to finding great gigs. It's essential to be creative, proactive, and persistent — just as you are in your own work.
Here are some tips I've learned for landing dream clients.
You'll also enjoy this episode of our new podcast...
Market to your dream clients
Sounds obvious, but are your marketing and self-promotional materials really aligned to your dream clients? Or are they just crafted for general consumption?
If you want a specific kind of client — your dream client — you need a brand image that is appealing to them. You may need to tailor your message and value proposition, or even develop a whole campaign or set of materials just for them.
Don't shortchange your marketing methods. Carefully research the design styles of your ideal clients. Develop a look and feel for yourself — or for your marketing to them — that is visually aligned with your dream client's goals.
Need more clients? During the month of August, try our premium weekly gig list, Solidgigs. It's packed with hand-selected clients & gigs every week. Try for just $2 with promo code tryfor2. Learn more here »
Showcase relevant projects
Suppose your dream client is a small business owner looking for logo and identity design kits, but all your work is in web development, creating nifty sites for realtors.
What to do?
If you want your dream client to hire you for identity design, stack your port with relevant work. Put your logos first. Or develop sub marketing (materials or micro sites) that really speak to that strength.
You'll only be hired if your marketing includes projects that show the kind of work you want to be doing.
And if you are a new designer or a recent art school grad, it's really OK. Create some sample designs that show what you're capable of, even if you haven't specifically designed the packaging for a new coffee yet.
Be honest if it's a sample project. It will still show your skills.
Promote yourself
If you've got big dreams, client wise, you need to promote yourself.
Don't be shy. Take your well researched marketing message and targeted work samples and market them. Create accounts at designer showcase sites and social media outlets.
Make sure your look and feel is consistent across every account. Whether it's Facebook, LinkedIn, or Behance, you need a cohesive brand image.
Splurge on some high quality business cards using letterpress, or design high quality cards using respected online printers like 4by6.com or moo.com.
If you're a fan of face to face, some of the most effective promotions still happen offline — you know, in the real world.
Where do your dream clients congregate? Meetings, markets, or conventions? Be there to develop dream client contacts.
You can't fake interest
If you are really committed to gaining a client or type of business, I'd expect you to be genuinely interested in what they do.
Research their prior design projects. What are the goals and objectives of current or previous marketing campaigns? Which designers or agencies did work for them?
Most clients are looking for people who actually understand their business. And they are often tired of educating (and reeducating) new partners about their companies.
Don't be presumptuous, but be interested in your dream clients.
When you send them an email, cover letter, or when you meet them in person, talk what you already know about their company. Ask questions.
Just by being interested, you can start to align yourself with the company and show how you would be a valuable asset.
Be proactive
Design clients are out there. In fact, they are all around you, just use your eyes.
Do you see dream clients who really need your services? Perhaps a local chocolatier or bookshop is screaming for a redesign.
Answer that call. Be proactive and introduce yourself or send them an email. Outline some suggested ideas, but make sure you do so in a nice way.
What do I mean by that?
Truth is, many small businesses are attached to their own branding and design even if it could be improved. Many of them will have personally developed their own branding. So a tactless critique could be counter-productive.
Focus on the positives.
Start with what is working well in their business identity before you address ways to improve their designs.
Persist and persevere
Rome wasn't built in a day, and most likely your dream client list will take some time and effort.
If you're reached out to a dream client, maybe a very large corporate client or a design agency with five offices around the world, and you don't initially get a response — don't fret.
These companies are very busy and usually are in a state of constant flux with turnover in staff as well.
Reach out again in a month or two. Keep an eye out for new jobs or developments that are custom-made for you. Successful companies expect interested candidates to reach out to them, so perseverance is not a bad trait.
Periodic outreach is also a chance to hone your message. Let the client know about any new successes or projects you've completed, particularly if they relate to the kind of work you would like to do for that company.
I hope the methods above will help you land your ideal clients. I've certainly used these methods to good effect over the years. It takes time and practice, so relax!
How have you been able to land your dream clients? Let's continue the conversation in the comments!

Over the last five years, Austin has experienced a barbecue renaissance (much tastier than the one with all the paintings!) of momentous proportions, which has included a rapid pace of change in the local hierarchy.
Since Austin BBQ is too momentous a topic for any one man (or lady!) alone, we've taken a different approach. We turned the voting over to a distinguished panel of chefs, bartenders, sommeliers, and service industry pros with discriminating tastes when it comes to food, service, and atmosphere, with each of them giving us their top five selections (places were awarded 5 points for a first-place vote, 4 for a second, and so forth). Below are the panel's meaty selections for your next barbecue pilgrimage:
The Mexican-Style Grasshopper Tacos You Have to Try When You're in South Beach
8. The Salt Lick, 5 pts
What you're getting: The Family Style platter
This is technically not in Austin, but was the favorite of one panel member, so we'll gladly honor the pick. Long a favorite of both tourists and locals, The Salt Lick remains an institution: the scenic drive out, the BYOB policy, and the huge crowds all make it an experience everyone should have when visiting Austin. LaV's Janina O'Leary explains her pick: "The sausage and the sauce at Salt Lick are always consistent. It's an atmosphere we really enjoy."
Seating: Indoor and patio
7. Kerlin BBQ, 6 pts
What you're getting: Pulled pork, brisket
The newest entrant in the poll's top eight, Kerlin's opening window is short -- stop by before 12:45pm on most days, or they'll be shut. This is where Central and East Austin barbecue fans go for great quality without the wait. Many regulars recommend the sides at Kerlin to complement the meal.
Seating: Outdoor only, picnic tables
6. John Mueller Meat Co., 7 pts
What you're getting: Beef ribs, sausage, brisket
It's not hard to argue that John Mueller is responsible for the current Austin barbecue renaissance. A hard-living, mercurial personality, Mueller has battled through the closure of John Mueller's B-B-Q and a rift that led to his departure from JMueller BBQ (which is now renamed La Barbecue). Barbecue hounds all agree that when Mueller is on his game, he's as good as it gets, particularly with his signature beef ribs. Some days are better than others here, though, which is why JMMC ranks just below the top tier.
Seating: Outdoor only, picnic tables
5. Freedmen's, 8 pts
What you're getting: Pulled pork, pork ribs, brisket
Housed in a historic building near the University of Texas, Freedmen's is firing on all cylinders of late. In addition to great meats, the restaurant scores bonus points for a spacious and welcoming patio and a solid craft cocktail program. Pitmaster Evan LeRoy takes a more chef-centric approach to his menu than most others on the list -- while you do order meat by weight, you can also get starters like smoked beets with chèvre and balsamic, sides of house-made pickles, or smoked and grilled veggies.
Seating: Indoor and patio
4. Stiles Switch BBQ & Brew, 15 pts
What you're getting: Beef ribs, brisket, pork ribs
The local favorite for convenience and comfort, Stiles Switch has ample air-conditioned seating and little to no line. The quality of the food is rock-solid, as is the thoughtfully curated selection of beers from folks like Firestone Walker. This is a great place to go when you want excellent 'cue without the hassle factor. Service is efficient and friendly, and the location is great for both Central and North Austin residents.
Seating: Indoor and patio
3. Micklethwait Craft Meats, 23 pts
What you're getting: Sausage, beef ribs
Micklethwait stands with the top tier of pitmasters in terms of quality, but also differentiates themselves by focusing on their sausage offerings and taking a more artisanal approach to their menu. The trailer serves homemade bread, and often has off-menu specials like pork chops or esoteric sausages. The trailer has recently expanded their hours -- you can actually get dinner service -- and also sports some excellent side items and dessert offerings, assuming you can find the room.
Seating: Outdoor only, picnic tables
2. La Barbecue, 38 pts
What you're getting: Everything, especially the beef rib, brisket, and sausage
The difference between Franklin and LA is razor-thin: pitmaster John Lewis once worked at Franklin, and also worked alongside John Mueller before the falling out between Mueller siblings. Lewis is a master of his craft, and the word is out: once the "non-tourist" option for quality 'cue, La now sports lengthy lines and a large fan base. It's tough to find any fault with the offerings, which border on the otherworldly at times.
Seating: Outdoor only, picnic tables
1. Franklin Barbecue, 39 pts
What you're getting: Everything, especially the brisket, sausage, and pulled pork
The winner by the slightest of margins, Aaron Franklin's bellwether continues to attract lines up to five hours long. The restaurant recently closed temporarily to expand their kitchen space, but re-opened just in time for a visit from President Obama. Franklin's brisket is simply one of the best things you can eat in the state of Texas, and his consistency is a model for the craft. Eating here requires planning and patience, but brisket fans should accept the challenge at least once.
Seating: Indoor and patio
Others receiving votes: Live Oak Barbecue, Mann's Smokehouse, Rudy's, Iron Works, Bowie BBQ (Whole Foods Market), Green Mesquite.

Jessica Sanders, drink.well: Jessica Sanders is co-owner of North Loop's popular cocktail bar and restaurant drink.well. She is also the secretary of the Austin chapter of the United States Bartender's Guild.

Drew Curren, ELM Restaurant Group: Drew Curren is the executive chef at the ELM group's 24 Diner, Easy Tiger, and Arro. A fourth ELM restaurant focused on Italian food will arrive later this year Downtown.
Janina O'Leary, LaV Austin: Janina O'Leary is head pastry chef at East Austin's acclaimed LaV restaurant.
Josh Loving, Half Step: Josh Loving is one of Austin's perennial favorite bartenders. After working at Jeffrey's, Weather Up, FINO, and Midnight Cowboy, Loving is currently consulting on the beverage program at Olamaie and developing a bar concept.

The Salt Lick has some policies that you're going to enjoy. First, you're going to throw down less than $20 for an all-you-can-eat meat fest of brisket, sausage, and ribs, plus classic sides like potato salad, beans, and slaw. Second, they're BYOB, so you can bring your favorite brews along with you, AND they even have you covered with a winery where you can stock up if you forgot to bring anything.
Kerlin BBQ is a legendary Austin spot. Seriously, put this place on your bucket list. Routinely named as the best barbecue in the city (and in the country), this trailer slings ridiculous "quality smoked meats" from 11a until they sell out. Line up early and make sure you get your meat sweets in with fall off the bone pork ribs, tasty, tender brisket, and savory sides like blue cheese coleslaw.
Located behind Eastside dive Kellee's, long time fire-starter John Mueller serves some of the best barbecue in Texas at this trailer eatery. Grab some BBQ pork ribs or fatty brisket, and feast in blissed-out peace at the picnic tables under blue-and-white tent. While Mueller's meats get top marks, his menu's side dishes are not to be missed-- get munching on cheesy squash, sriracha coleslaw, and more.
This is not your average barbecue joint. Freedman's has a patio and outdoor beer garden that offers a variety of brews on tap as well as a retro soda shop-inspired cocktail list. If you're not a fan of the throwbacks, the $3 tacos, tamales and whiskey of the month happy hour should entice you. Check out this vintage-y, saloon style spot near UT for rollicking night out on the town.
Further contributing to Taylor, TX's great BBQ emigration is Stiles Switch BBQ & Brew. This tavern-like spot hosts its fair share of tasty smoked meats and sides, plus some dope brews (of course). Helmed by a Louie Mueller alum, this spot's taken up residence in the N Lamar shopping center where they filmed Dazed and Confused, a movie that, the older you get... also gets older.
Smoking and barbecuing craft meats, Micklethwait has authentic, Texas country-style BBQ, including specialty homemade sausages that vary daily. This ramshackle, neighborhood spot serves up some of the best meat in the ATX (beef rib, brisket, pulled pork, chops 'n sausage, to name a few offerings), all of which you can enjoy at camp-style outdoor picnic tables with a cold beverage in hand.
This is a no frills barbecue joint is known for their hand made sausage and mean slabs of meat. Behind La Barbecue's fire is veteran pitt boss (which is basically like the General of the BBQ world), John Lewis, who can also churn out whole briskets and racks of ribs to go if you're in a hurry. And did we mention the live music? Yes, every Saturday and Sunday, as it should be in the live music capital.
This lunch-only spot often sees long lines of customers waiting to order pulled pork, brisket and other smoked meats. Chef Aaron Franklin brought quality barbecue to Austin that was excellent enough to earn him the 2015 James Beard Award for "Best Chef: Southwest." His BBQ is so lauded that meat lovers from around the world regulalry make a pit stop at this shack-like locale in East Austin.

Kimchi is a traditional Korean dish, made with Chinese cabbage and somewhat reminiscent of sauerkraut. There are many ways to make it. This is yet another option.
Kimchi has a strong flavor and is served with almost all Korean food. Because of its pro-biotic bacteria, it is considered to be a healthy food. In Korea, it has been claimed that kimchi protected South Koreans from the Asian outbreak of SARS in 2003.
2 l water
4 tbsp salt
900 g Chinese cabbage
3 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons vinegar 5 %
3 tablespoons honey (or sugar)
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
½ – 1 tablespoon finely chopped red chili
Equipment :
Cutting Board
Large mixing bowl
Measuring Spoons
Plate and something heavy (like a brick or stone) (about 1 kg)
1 large or several small canning jars with lids (for example Mason jars)
Put water and salt in the bowl and stir until the salt is completely dissolved. Cut out the hard core of the cabbage, clean the leaves and rinse well.
Cut the leaves into wide strips (4-5 cm) and place them in the bowl with water. Place the plate (with whatever you are using for a weight), so that the cabbage is held under water in the bowl. Let stand overnight, preferably more than 12 hours.
Drain and mix the other ingredients in thoroughly, and pack into a large pickle jar(s) with lid. Allow to sit at room temperature for two days. Press the vegetables daily so that they remain below the liquid surface.
Kimchi will usually last 4-8 weeks in the refrigerator (if not longer).

The Surprising Health Benefits of Arts and Crafts Activities
Taking part in arts and crafts activities is both rewarding and relaxing. It is challenging but not to the extent that it leaves you mentally exhausted, which makes it perfect for de-stressing. It is therefore unlikely to come as a surprise that it possesses a number of health benefits. There aren't too many things that are both enjoyable and healthy but arts and crafts fall firmly within both of these categories. A study carried out by researchers at the University of Glasgow in 2011 concluded that arts and crafts aid emotional well-being to an extent that more active pursuits such as sports cannot, especially amongst old people. Co-author of the study Jacqueline Atkinson states that crafts provide an avenue for people to take part in activities that are both engaging and enjoyable, which can help to reduce stress. She says that certain arts and crafts activities also offer maths and geometry challenges, which help to keep the brain sharp.
Treatment for Addiction
A report published by the National Center for Biotechnology Information also states that arts and crafts can have a positive influence upon recovering drug addicts. Those seeking help for drug addiction are often placed on arts and crafts programs in order to facilitate their recovery, as non-verbal creative media have been proven to be effective at treating them. The therapeutic power of arts and crafts is well documented. According to Professor Sinnika Pollanen of the University of Eastern Finland, making things by hand can bring about profound changes in emotions, sensory experiences, actions, behaviours and patterns of thought, which means that it can effectively alter the way in which a person perceives the world.
Achieving 'Flow'
Psychologist Claudia Hammond also points out that crafts can be 'all-absorbing' and help people to attain a state that psychologists call 'flow' in which all worries are discarded and the hours fly by. She says that one of the main benefits of arts and crafts is that those doing them have complete control over the difficulty level of the tasks that they choose to take on. Research has demonstrated that the goals that people set themselves tend to be the most satisfying for them to achieve, meaning that creating something that you are proud of can improve your levels of mental well-being.
Treating Depression
President of the International Behavioural Neuroscience Society Professor Kelly Lambert states that taking part in arts and crafts activities can help to stave off depression. She says that partaking in these activities bathes your brain in 'feel-good chemicals' and creates a 'kind of mental vitamin'. She has also previously stated that the effects of arts and crafts are more complex than taking antidepressants and activate multiple brain areas, meaning that they can sometimes be just as effective as prescription medication when it comes to fighting mental illness.
Improving Mental Agility
A recent article published in Psychologies magazine suggests that the role played by arts and crafts is underestimated. The magazine points out that making things is an accessible means of asserting control within an uncertain environment. The piece includes a quote by a female store manager who says that since she took up arts and crafts activities, she has felt significantly calmer and the fact that she can transform materials into something useful has increased her confidence in her skill at adapting and dealing with things. This is backed up by the results of a study cited in the article that concluded that those who devote time to creative activities experience a growth in mental agility.
Final Thoughts
It appears that as well as being an enjoyable way to while away the hours, arts and crafts activities can also help to maintain your mental health and improve your adaptability. They can improve your confidence, make you happier in the course of your everyday life and even help to fight against depression and addiction. With this in mind, it is perhaps little wonder artistic and crafts-based pursuits are such popular hobbies. The main benefit of partaking in them is that they are fun to do though. They enable artistically minded people to hone their skills whilst partaking in activities that are both relaxing and rewarding. Everything else is just an added bonus.

|Released August 27, 1991 on Epic
Most of the records I've blogged about prior to today remind me of my time in the fifth grade. Pearl Jam's "Ten", however, has sixth grade written all over it.
I remember standing at the bus stop one morning with a girl who had just recently purchased Pearl Jam's debut album. She yapped and yapped about it with such passion, convinced that it was the greatest music ever recorded. I was a bit skeptical, but this girl was way cooler than I was and the fact that she was speaking to me about anything was a pretty big deal, so I listened.
Eventually I did buy the tape.* And in no time I was totally on board with the rest of the world. In the beginning, there was some question within the music community about whether or not PJ should be considered true "grunge." I wasn't aware of any of this at the time, so it had no effect on me, but had I been, there's a good chance I'd have a different opinion about it today.**
"Ten" eventually fell out of my regular rotation as I got more and more new music. About three years ago I found a copy on CD in the dollar bin and picked it up to replace the one I'd lost fifteen years prior. And you know what? I couldn't tell you where that CD is today. I think I bought it purely for sentimental reasons, but the reality is I'd moved on.
The only other Pearl Jam record I ever owned was "Vs." I listened to it once and hated it immediately. The next day I gave it to my younger friend who lived down the street. I regret my behavior that day. I'm a lot better about giving music an honest, fair chance, ESPECIALLY music from an already established band/artist. I know now that music can take hold and grow if given a shot. And yet, I never did listen to "Vs." again.
* I say "bought", but odds are it was given to me as a birthday or Christmas gift. Oh, and I'm 90% certain it was on cassette tape and not CD.
**Just to be clear, I think this is a fantastic record.

If you don't have an Estate Plan in place when you die then the state will takes over the disposition of your assets by law…and can impose hefty estate taxes on your assets. Since this is your final planning document be sure to have it drawn up correctly by using an estate planning lawyer so that your last wishes are legal and binding.

A 36 secs summary before you trap yourself in a long-er-than-I-even-expected post
A shopping is in order after I got news that I landed a job!
*confetti in air*
because I realized
We already scheduled to go for a drugstore spree since it was the Watsons {elite} members sale. I've been to many of their members-only sale but my first as an Elite member because they use to always hold them on days I couldn't go {yes, even when I wasn't working}, maybe they heard my complains. Maybe. Before I start to rant about their membership system again, let's just move on to shopping.
If you think drugstore shopping is dull, you are so wrong; the fun starts right from making a Let's Buy! list. Going through the list again against the actual stuff already had, and realize having 4 packs of pantyliner, 4 bottles of deodorant,
But there's still so much more to buy, and we actually bought so much we didn't do any haul. Willie was already packing away once we reached home 'cause shopping bags were everywhere! Excuse while I slurp photos off the net.
Of course I won't dump everything I bought here.. just some savings.. ;)
2 for $5.90
That's 200 plasters for $5.90!
3 for $11
Even though I just bought 2 boxes last week.. Both of us use this, and we really don't see the difference between this and the men's.
Buy 2 get 1 free.
This sounds like a great deal but because
There are many many more deals but I need to watch myself to ensure I can finish what I buy.. *pretending I didn't shop myself crazy* .. so I only spent $350+++... When I told Willie I wanted the free tote bag, he thought I was kidding. But I'm proud to stop myself when the cashier told me I'm $150 away from $40 vouchers. Look at the numbers, I know my math, lady~
At this point, my feet were already hurting {and I was wearing flats}, we went over to Ion {we were at Ngee Ann City, the elite sale is not up at all stores}, drop off the bags in these $1 lockers beside the valet {how thoughtful!}, and I really wanna fill my tum-tum, Willie brought me to the new Zalora.
I'm not sure if the idea works for me.
Zalora is an online apparel shop, they have this brick and mortal for shoppers to try the clothes, and when you're satisfied, you check yourself out at the many desktops in the stores, pay online, and your purchases will be delivered to you in a few days.
I'm sure there were a lot of ideas and thoughts behind this. This shop may not be permanent. It's a good way for customers to be familiar with their sizes and cuts. There's no need for storeroom in the shop, everything is displayed and products are delivered from the warehouse directly.
I found convenience in this system, like what I did last night. I scanned my purchases after signing-in my account, placed them in my cart, and walked out. I'm sure many have this moment to give purchases a think, and many times we do not return due to whatever reasons or excuses we give ourselves and regret after. Now, I only had to log-on and checkout later at home!
That is.. if I didn't go to G2000 after dinner. {*catch a breath* This post had turned unexpectedly long.}
|just some of the many I tried
i may have tired on 20 items
Did we save here? Of course we did.. We get a $15 voucher for every $80 so we separate the purchase to make the best out of this deal.. Even the cashier was helping us when the math got too confusing.. lol
p/s: I knew it! when I find shop & save ringing in my head but this post has nothing to do with both Shop 'n Save or the old Shop n Save. lol

1. Use partition Wizard to shrink the freeagentdrive partition on disk 1 to leave unallocated space at the beginning of the drive. You could also use PW change S to a logical partition.
2. Use acronis to clone the Win7 system to that unallocated space which creates a new system partition.
3. Use Bios to change boot drive to disk 1. That will assign C: to the Win 7 system and may change drive letters of other drive. Immediately used windows disk management to change the drive letters to match those assigned by XP, to avoid confusion. I assign x, y or z to other systems. e.g when booted in Win7, xp is Z, when booted in xp, winz=7 is Z. All other drives same. I include the desired drive letter in the drive name to make housekeeping easy. e.g freeagentdrive s, mydocsplus e. Disk numbers may be different from XP also, but doesn't matter. change also
4. Rebuild bootloader with bcdedit, Win7 install disk repair or tool of your choice. (I haven't personally tried PW for this.)
The great obvious advantage of having systems on different drives is that a drive failure doesn't take out both.

OP wants to delete XP.
Not mentioned yet is that you could delete XP, leave Win7 in place, mark Active and Repair. We tend to want OS partitions in the lower address where reads are faster.
Let us know how it goes. We'll be here to help.

It doesn't matter where the partition is when you mark it Active and run Repairs to write the System Boot files to it.
With PW CD you don't have to worry about copying or resizing the partition as it never fails, so moving it is no issue.
The only hitch could be that in rare cases Win7 will not repair to recover it's boot files. For this reason you might want to back up a Win7 system image of both OS partitions so you can start over, or you can clean reinstall Win7 which is always a nice fresh start. Reinstalling Windows 7

Thanks for the PW CD info. I have a hundred applications with all their settings,so I REALLY don't want to re-install. But just in case, that's why I moved "my documents" off the boot drive. And I will DEFINITELY create image backups before i jump into this again.
I'll keep you posted when I get into it.

It isn't necessary to move your middle Documents partition, just delete XP using PW CD, create a new partition in the space to the left of E, reimage C there.
Boot PW CD, mark Win7 partition Active, from Disk tab click Rebuild MBR, see if Win7 will start. If not boot the Win7 DVD Repair console or Repair CD to run Startup Repair up to 3 separate times until Win7 starts. Startup Repair - Run 3 Separate Times
This might be able to be accomplished by simply copying the partition using PW CD, since there is no MBR to copy. You can leave the source partition on the HD until you make sure the copy works, as it will be inert once it's System Active flags are transferred to the copy by marking Active and Rebuilding MBR or running Repairs.
Made a NEW system image (and a new system repair CD - DID I HAVE TO MAKE A NEW CD???) and copied the E: ptn to a different drive and swapped drive letters. This allowed me to have all my folders keep their correct dates, which XCOPY would not do. Re-booted and now E: shows up on new drive(hooray).
Last step will be to Slide the C: drive to the beginning of the physical drive (leaving a 200MB space for a possible future bootmgr ptn), using PW and increase it's size.
|My System Specs
|04 Jul 2012
Those line commands are automated in Win7 Startup Repair which will do the job if run up to 3 separate times. There may be other issues it needs to address as well.
Be prepared with DVD/Repair CD in rare cases to do it again when you slide C to the left or otherwise resize/move on the boot sector. Partition Wizard Move/Resize Partition Video Help.

I was just surprised to see the message, since many postings on this topic just say to go to the command prompt.
Do you know if I need to build a new repair CD after EVERY time I save an image? Or will one repair CD work for any future saves?
|My System Specs
|05 Jul 2012
Yes, the Repair CD is fine as long as it is made after the latest SP, as with the installer.

Australia Wedding Photography
Capturing moments as important as a wedding day needs utmost preparation and attention to detail because unlike other events, this happens once in a lifetime. The rings, the bride's gown, the groom's tuxedo, and the entourage are only among the several subjects that a photographer has to capture during the course of taking pictures.
Australia Wedding Photography: Capturing The Right Photographer
Choosing the right Australia Wedding Photography photographer for the event can sometimes be nerve wracking because most of those found on the directory or on the internet search results are professionals who already processed several photos and provided out-of-the-box results. But how does an engaged couple filter the long list so that they can move on to the cake-tasting and gown fitting appointments? The following are some of the micro-details that one should take note of.
The photographer's background on the field and vision on how the prints should turn out are the primary basis of the results because he/ she will be the one standing behind the lens and the one who will be attempting to create the image of the perfect set of photos. The fate of the photos will be in his/ her hands.
The portfolio. Every professional in the field of taking pictures has a portfolio which may be a book or a website page; this is where the past works can be found. For couples, never hesitate to ask about the book because it portrays the style and character of the one who took the pictures.
Australia Wedding Photography Packages
In a typical photo package, it includes a wedding album and a CD containing the images. But there are already several photography companies that offer customized packages for couples to be able to make it more personal. In addition, there is always a variation from one photographer to the other, some charge more while others charge less; again the basis should be on their ability to provide great results.

Parapsychologists create a business exterminating ghouls and hobgoblins -- and end up facing one killer demon in a cellist's apartment.
The film follows three parapsychologists Peter Venkman, Raymond Stantz and Egon Spengler as they start off working at a university but get their funding cut just after they have their very first run in with a ghost in the basement on a library.
They talk Ray into selling his family home so they can set up business in an old dilapidated fire station and buy a car.....Ray runs off and spends about $4000 on a car that needs the same amount again to get it ready.
Just as money is getting low a job comes through from a posh and a little bit snooty hotel. The Ghostbusters come rolling up in Ecto-1 (the name of the car) with lights flashing and a siren blaring bringing plenty of attention. They meet the manager in the lobby who tells them about the ghost on the 12th floor (apparently all the old staff know about the 12th floor) and this is where we meet a floating blob of green goo who we all know as Slimer. Slimer attacks Venkman before going through a wall and into a big function room and this is where the Ghostbusters smash everything in sight doing $1000's in damages while catching the ghost and then charge the hotel $5000 for doing it.
They are contacted by Dana Barrett after her eggs decide to pop out their shells and cook on her kitchen counter, she then hears a loud rumbling and growling coming from her fridge, as she opens it all she can see is what looks like a monument with flames around it and some daemon dogs then hears a voice call out Zuul.
Business takes off and they decide to hire a new member of staff so they hire Winston Zeddemore. Zeddemore is only with the Ghostbusters for a few weeks when all hell literally starts to break loose after Barrett gets possessed by Zuul and some stupid jobsworth from the Environmental Protection Agency thinks the Ghostbusters are breaking the law and turns off the power to the containment grid to deactivate it and this is where it all kicks off.
Well I just loved this film, loved it when I was a kid and I still love it. At time the special effects are a little bit dated but over all they are not that bad (Emily was impressed and thought it was from the 90's and not from 84), the costumes really are dated but then again they does happen allot with films from the 80's as its the decade that fashion forgot. The comedy was spot on, no foul language what so ever and the only real violence was towards the ghosts. I can see how this film has stood the test of time and I am shocked that they have not done a 3rd one yet (Ghostbusters 2 came out in 1989), yes I know there are rumours flying around the internet about so called stories and whether or not it's being worked on but all we can do is sit back and wait for it to happen.
If you want to see a good easy to watch family film (maybe not for the really young ones) then you need to get this watched.

Walgreens Flu Index reveals top markets, states for flu activity
DEERFIELD, Ill. — With flu activity winding down in the United States, Walgreens has announced the top markets and states for flu activity for this season, according to its season-ending flu index examining aggregate prescription data from November 2014 through February 2015.
The states with the highest rates of influenza, according to the index, were Oklahoma, Texas, Mississippi, Texas and Tennessee. Portland, Ore., Hartford, Conn., and Boston were the markets with the least amount of flu activity.
"In just its first season, the Flu Index quickly became a resource that people — and news media in particula —, came to rely upon, and strong awareness helped deliver a call to action that had a positive impact on flu immunization rates," stated Richard Ashworth, Walgreens president of pharmacy and retail operations. "This is another way in which we're helping to better the health of our communities by providing the preventive health information and services they need."
The Walgreens Flu Index provides state- and market-specific information regarding flu activity, and is compiled using retail prescription data for antiviral medications used to treat influenza across Walgreens locations nationwide. With the ability to generate hyper-local data that's as specific as a single zip code, the index was instrumental in driving consumer awareness and prevention within communities, while also serving as a valuable tool for health departments, media and others at the local level.
Top 10 DMAs with Flu Activity
(Aggregate data from November 2014 through February 2015)
- Oklahoma City, Okla.
- Harlingen-Weslaco-Brownsville-McAllen, Texas
- Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas
- Jackson, Miss.
- Fort Smith-Fayetteville, Ark.
- Knoxville, Tenn.
- Austin, Texas
- Little Rock-Pine Bluff, Ark.
- Chattanooga, Tenn.
- Tulsa, Okla.
Top 10 States with Flu Activity
(Aggregate data from November 2014 through February 2015)
- Oklahoma
- Arkansas
- Mississippi
- Texas
- Tennessee
- Louisiana
- Alabama
- Kentucky
- Nebraska
- South Carolina
New "Bottom 10" Shows Markets with Least Amount of Influenza Activity
In addition to the top markets for activity, the season-ending index also shows the bottom 10, suggesting successful prevention efforts in preparation for, and during flu season in these communities, which experienced the lowest levels of influenza.
Markets with Least Flu Activity
(Aggregate data from November 2014 through February 2015)
- Portland, Ore.
- Hartford-New Haven, Conn.
- Boston, Mass.
- Fresno-Visalia, Calif.
- Sacramento, Calif.
- Tucson, Ariz.
- Buffalo, N.Y.
- Providence, R.I.
- Seattle-Tacoma, Wash.
- Los Angeles
The Walgreens Flu Index data is analyzed at state and geographic market levels to measure absolute impact and incremental change of antiviral medications on a per-store average basis, and does not include markets in which Walgreens has fewer than 20 retail locations.
The flu index is not intended to illustrate levels or severity of flu activity, but rather, illustrate which populations are experiencing the highest incidence of flu.

Q. I do not see anything about entering the Photography contests. Do you have to be a member of a camera club??"
You do not need to be a camera club member to participate. In fact, Cookeville Camera Club members are only allowed to participate in the two Professional categories. Members are not permitted to enter photos in the 17 Amateur categories.
Information about the photography contest is best found in the "Fair Book". It can be found at the Putnam County UT Extension office at 900 S. Walnut Ave., Cookeville (west side of the fairgrounds). Or, perhaps it would be easier to download the book from the fair website at www.putnamcountyfair.org. Once on the website, there is a green link on the left side of the page, "FAIR BOOK". The first few pages of the Fair Book are un-numbered, but the numbers begin just after the table of contents.
The following pages are important:
Page 1, upper half. Here you will find information as to when and where to bring your photo entries, notification about required barcodes, and a few other Fair requirements.
Page 7. Most of this page describes the Photography Contest and its requirements in detail. To ensure you are not disappointed, please read the Photography rules carefully.
Pages 28 & 29. Here you will find further information about the required bar codes and other entry requirements. Submitting the entry form will allow Fair personnel to pre-print your bar codes in order to reduce waiting time during the entry drop-off time on Saturday morning, July 30. I recommend having the bar codes pre-printed!
We look forward to your participation this year. We have a lot of people who eagerly submit photos every year.
Q. What date is family night since that is the most afforable time to take the kids?
Saturday, July 30 10a – 2p free admission, reduced armbands to ride on the midway
Sunday, July 31 11a – 2p kids under 12 free.
Tuesday, August 2, Admission $3
Q. How can I enter the rodeo?
Please call Danny Hedrick at 865-556-9154 if you want to enter the rodeo.
Q. Is there a petting zoo and can we feed the animals?
The petting zoo will have 15 animals and will be located in the West Exhibit Hall
Q. When coming to a concert are you allowed to bring a cooler (soda, water, etc.) and snacks inside?
No coolers, no back packs, or food and drinks from the outside allowed on the grounds.
Q. How will we know if a grandstand event is cancelled due to rain?
If a show is cancelled, it will be announced on the radio and on this website.
Here are some grandstand facts you should know:
No one allowed in the center arena before 2 :00 PM
No smoking in grandstand or arena before or during an event
No outside food, no coolers.
Q. What kind of food will be at the fair?
The food at the fair this year is awesome! It includes items at some new concessions. We have pizza, home cooking, the best hamburgers in the world, pulled pork sliders, barbeque potatoes, ribs, corn on the cob, fresh fruit cups, veggie cups (ranch dip too), trail mix, chocolate covered sunflower seeds, bananas and so much more. Of course there is the usual carnival food fare of candy apples, cotton candy, funnel cakes, corn dogs, etc. And yes, you can also get deep-fried mushrooms, onions, pickles and even Oreos.
Q. I would like to enter some houseplants in the fair but how do I keep them watered?
Not to worry, we've got you covered! Every day one of the Master Gardeners checks each plant with a sensing device to see if it needs watering, and will give your plants the appropriate amount of water every day. We love Master Gardeners and they are an important part of the fair!
Q. Where does the fair money go?
All profits are reinvested in the fair either in fairground improvements or in the program for the following year's fair.
For example…the fair made a $10,000 profit in 2015. Of that profit $5,000 will support Senior Citizens Day, Pacesetters program and Special Children's Day. An additional $5,000 has been spent on fairground improvements which included paint for the buildings inside; to buy two additional water cooling fans for use during the fair; and enclosed one of the exhibit areas in the North Exhibit Hall to store all the fans and signs belonging to the fair board.
Q. Where can the fair books be found in town?
The fair books will be available in 2016 at 150 locations from Monterey to Baxter: the County Extension Office on South Willow, the Putnam Farmers' Co-op on W. Broad, at most banks, some grocery stores, all over the county. You can also view the book on this website. It may take awhile to download, depending on your computer and internet connection, so give it time. View it View it here
Q. Does it cost to see the events like monster trucks?
Admission to the fair that night is $5. There is no additional cost unless you decide to ride in one of the trucks…if rides are offered before the show then that cost is extra.
Thank you to Sandy Miller for the Theme Photography

Feel the power of this popular mobile slot game on any mobile device at All Slots Casino! Whether you have a state-of-the-art smartphone, a sleek tablet, an iPhone, iPad, Android or just a basic feature phone, you can play this amazing game anytime, anywhere.
Wild Multiplier, Free Spins and More!
- Wild Multiplier: Thor, the Norse god of thunder, stars on this 5-reel, 9-payline mobile slot game, as a generous wild symbol. Not only will Thor substitute for other symbols to produce a winning combination, he will even DOUBLE the regular payout!
- Free Spins Feature: If three, four or five Ram symbols land anywhere, in any order on the reels, the free spins feature will be triggered. This feature offers 15 free spins, and all wins during the feature are TRIPLED for even more winning power. Even better, if three or more Ram symbols appear again during a round of free spins, you will enjoy an additional 15 free spins.
- Gamble Feature: With any win on this electrifying game, you can choose to play the Gamble feature, for the chance to double or even quadruple the payout amount. Upon tapping the Gamble button, a new screen appears prompting the player to select the correct colour or suit to win. Choosing the correct colour – red or black – doubles the payout, while choosing the correct suit – heart, diamond, spade or club – quadruples it. If you win, the feature gives the option of gambling again, or collecting. Keep gambling your winnings until the gamble limit is reached – or until you lose the bet.
Just Two Symbols Make You A Winner!
Unlike many slot games which require at least three matching symbols to win, on Thunderstruck at All Slots Mobile Casino, many symbols award a payout even if only two line up on an active payline. This applies to the 9 symbol, Thor's mighty fist, his enchanted hammer, the scatter Ram symbol and even Wild Thor himself. Being able to win with just two symbols offers more winning opportunities and makes playing Thunderstruck on a mobile device even more exciting.
