Oakley Half Jacket 2.0 - Pearl w/ Violet Iridium
Our original Half Jacket became essential gear for athletes, and version 2.0 takes the proud heritage to the next level of design.

The Three-Point Fit won't hook your ears like ordinary frames, and it keeps the lenses in precise alignment so they can give your eyes the vision of victory.

With HDO� lenses, Half Jacket 2.0 features XYZ Optics� to keep vision sharp and accurate all the way to the peripheral edge. All lenses are made of pure Plutonite� to filter out all UV, and this premium eyewear meets ANSI Z87.1 standards for optical clarity and impact resistance.

We ask please:
- No fires in the campsite area.

- No glass bottles anywhere on site.
Where Can I Park?

Yes, campervans are permitted, and cost £50 for the weekend.
The cost supports us in returning it to the original condition.

#YAWritersAAT finding: Gay and Lesbian couples are widely accepted in most schools we heard about.
#YAWritersAAT finding: A lot of dating rules from parents were case-by-case, some had to do with gender balance of the group.
#YAWritersAAT finding: Parents wanted to be sure they could get their kids out of sticky dating situations via dating rules.
#YAWritersAAT finding: Girls reported only discussing crushes and relationships with a small circle of friends: cited backstabbing.
#YAWritersAAT finding: One teen reported going to guys for relationship advice, girls for "the gory details."
#YAWritersAAT finding: There can be a lot of pressure from peers to date seriously.
#YAWritersAAT finding: Most HS girls either have a boyfriend or want one. Girls are more vocal about the desire than guys.
#YAWritersAAT finding: ….but the perception that most people date seriously in HS is wrong.
#YAWritersAAT finding: Love triangles = unrealistic. Girls are just never torn between two guys.

You can relax on the white sand beaches or beside the resort's waterfall pools, or be more active and go kayaking, scuba diving, and even play tennis on a turf court. The kids will love the ocean trampolines and the floating wall in the center of the beach.
A must-see is the exciting iguana feeding each afternoon when wild iguanas race in from all over to feast on left-over salad fixings.
At night let yourself go and dance to the lively reggae and calypso music in the resort's lounges. During some of your days on St. John you'll want to rent a jeep and explore the awesome Virgin Islands National Park.
The Park's 7,000 acres covers two-thirds of St. John Island, encompasses breathtaking hills, valleys and beaches, and has miles of hiking trails through tropical forests. Along the Cinnamon Nature Trail you'll come across the ruins of sugar plantations.
The most popular hike is Reef Bay Trail, along which you'll see the remains of sugar mills, as well as thousand year-old petroglyphs put there by ancestors of the island Taino people.
Besides the thrill of catching a glimpse of these colorful birds on the wing, the entire family will have fun looking for green iguanas, scampering geckos, turtles, and even wild donkeys.
The temperatures on St. John Island can get into the hot 90's during the summer months. So the best time for a timeshare vacation is December through April when the days and the ocean, too, are just deliciously warm.

Sarasota has been a great market for us because of its emphasis on luxury and lifestyle," said Gleeson.
Sarasota, Florida (PRWEB) July 27, 2016
London Bay Homes has opened a new office in Sarasota to support its continuing growth within Southwest Florida's real estate market, including construction of luxury estate homes near downtown Sarasota, on Bird Key and Siesta Key, at The Founders Club and within The Lake Club in Lakewood Ranch.
Six London Bay Homes employees are currently assigned to the office at 401 N. Cattlemen Road in the Gateway Professional Center, according to John Gleeson, vice president of London Bay Homes.
London Bay Homes has been building estate and villa homes in Sarasota since 2008.
"We outgrew our previous office space," said Gleeson. "This new office provides both room to grow as well as a centralized location at Fruitville and North Cattlemen roads to serve clients. Our commitment to deliver excellence to our customers, at every level, and our focus to cultivate relationships with local real estate agents has positioned us for long-term success."
The luxury homebuilder has six single-family luxury estates under various stages of development on Siesta Key and Bird Key and homesites west of Tamiami Trail.
"I've been selling homes in Sarasota for 30 years now," said Sharon Straw, real estate agent with DWELL Real Estate. "When showing other homes in similar price ranges, their quality really stands out. They also have a terrific design process that makes each customer feel very special."
The homes, part of London Bay Homes' new Sarasota Keys Collection, include the Solymar, Celadon, Cedarberry and Camberdale estates.
The Solymar, a three-story custom beachfront estate, is located on a private gated street overlooking Big Pass with views to both South Lido Park and the Gulf of Mexico. The four-bedroom home will offer 5,855 square feet of living space, a guest casita, an oversized master suite, two outdoor kitchens and a five-car garage.
Another estate model, the four-bedroom Celadon with both views and a boat dock on Little Sarasota Bay is being built on Sea Plume Way, also on Siesta Key.
The Cedarberry sold recently before completion. The four-bedroom Bird Key estate will offer a bay-access dock, more than 4,500 square feet of living space, and sunrise and sunset views.
Additional homes include two models in Spice Bay, an eight-acre gated luxury community of only 14 homesites along Sarasota Bay on Siesta Key. London Bay Homes is building the four-bedroom Somerset, offering approximately 4,500 square feet, and the 5,010-square-foot Mandeville, a four-bedroom estate with a private boat dock and views of Little Sarasota Bay.
The four-bedroom, 4,377-square-foot Camberdale at 1806 Oleander Street in Sarasota's historic South Poinsettia neighborhood is also under construction.
"Sarasota has been a great market for us because of its emphasis on luxury and lifestyle," said Gleeson.
London Bay Homes is also building luxury homes in The Founders Club, Sarasota's premier private golf and social club community. The 700-acre community is planned for only 262 single-family homes on large homesites overlooking nature preserves, lakes and fairways along the golf course. London Bay Homes offers a selection of more than 18 single-family homes and one-of-a-kind estates ranging from 2,500 to more than 6,000 square feet of living space at The Founders Club. Five models are open daily. Home and homesite packages are priced from the $900,000s to more than $5 million.
Nearby, in Lakewood Ranch, London Bay Homes offers one-of-a-kind custom dream homes in The Lake Club and luxurious maintenance-free villas in the exclusive Matera neighborhood. Two furnished models with lake views are available in Matera, starting in the low $1 million range.
A leader in the Southwest Florida home market for more than 25 years, London Bay Homes has been named America's Best Builder by Builder magazine. Its commitment to Private Label Living ensures quality, attention to detail, an enjoyable building process and homes that are a unique expression of their residents. The company builds new luxury custom and semi-custom homes priced from $1 million to more than $10 million in many of the region's most exclusive neighborhoods and communities. The company also builds private residences on individual homesites from Naples to Sarasota, and along the Gulf of Mexico.
For more information about London Bay Homes' exclusive Sarasota opportunities, including the option of building a custom home along the Gulf of Mexico, contact Brian Pruett at 941-933-2918 or visit http://www.LondonBay.com.

I am scared of UKIP. I am scared of a betrayal.They were started by Alan Sked, an LSE academic and member of the British American Project for the Successor Generation. They are not conspiracy theorists, nor do they know very much about Europe.But if they put a stop to mass migration then there is hope yet for Civilization in the UK. Obviously the elite want to third world-Ize everywhere and maybe UKIP can slow that down.
Turnouts of 36% and 51% show the public has lost confidence in the electoral system and politicians in general.
Good analysis Stan.
And then our MP resigns. Oh well, Article 50 tomorrow. How'd you like that, bitches?

The City of Amarillo suffers from a problem of severe animal overpopulation. With a MSA population of approximately 262,000, Amarillo Animal Management & Welfare takes in almost 13,000 animals annually. By comparison, the City of Austin with a population of slightly over 2 million (800% of Amarillo). Both Austin and Waco had animal overpopulation issues. In 2010, Austin's intake was 23,000+ with a live release rate of approximately 50%. As recently as 2012, Waco's intake was 12,000 animals. Both cities have solved their problem in a relatively short amount of time.
Amarillo currently has no coordinated plan for dealing with its animal problem. This paper constitutes the Amarillo-Panhandle Humane Society's comprehensive plan for managing the problem by focusing on the three strategic variables of animal population management: 1) Intake Reduction, 2) Live Release and 3) Capacity for Care. Through the implementation of this plan, APHS is prepared to commit to achieving a 90% live release rate for dogs and cats from the AAM&W Animal Shelter within a 4 year period.
Key components of the plan are:
1. Intake Reduction
a. Establishment of a Breeders Ordinance
b. Elimination of "Roadside" puppy sales, and
c. Establishment of reduced cost spay/neuter clinic
2. Live Release
a. Expand the rescue network
b. Increase the number of weekly transports
3. Capacity for Care
a. Expand the foster program
b. Initiate community outreach
c. Partnering with media outlets
Breeders Ordinance
Anyone seeking to breed an animal must purchase a breeders permit for each litter of puppies bred. The ordinance will be drafted by AAM&W. 100% of breeders fees will accrue to the spay/neuter clinic.
Puppy Sales
Puppy sales by anyone not in possession of a breeder's permit will be prohibited. 501(c)(3) corporations will be the only organizations authorized to engage in animal adoption.
Reduced Cost Spay/Neuter Clinic
APHS, at its expense, will establish a reduced cost spay/neuter clinic as part of a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) with the City of Amarillo. The target markets for the clinic are low income, senior citizens, veterans and disabled individuals. The target locations will be established high intake areas of the city. In these locations, door to door spay/neuter campaigns will be initiated.
The clinic will provide spay and neuter services at a rate not to exceed to 70% of the average rate charged by five randomly selected local veterinary clinics. Prices will be adjusted annually during the month of July.
The clinic will employ two full time veterinarians and staff: one crew for the Amarillo facility and another crew for the mobile facility. Spay/neuter surgeries will increase from the current level of 200 per month to 400-500 animals per month at the Amarillo facility. The mobile clinic will support outlying communities with an additional 300-400 surgeries.
Finally, the clinic will provide low cost vaccination services and animal care on a space available basis.
Trap - Neuter - Return (TNR)
APHS will continue to aggressively support the TNR program. This proven technique for the long term management of the feral cat population is the most effective tool available. APHS may consider the use of bounties as a way to incentivize trapping.
APHS will expand out-placement of animals to rescues by increasing the rescue network.
- Increase the number of affiliated rescues in Colorado, Wyoming and Montana
- Tap into the National ASPCA rescue network
APHS will increase its transport fleet:
- A second transport van will be bought
- The frequency of animal transport will double. Instead of one operating a transport to Colorado and Kansas every other week, transport will occur every week. Whenever possible, multiple weekly trips will be initiated. APHS will use volunteer drivers whenever possible but APHS is prepared to hire transport drivers.
The primary source of animal population capacity will continue to be the animal shelter operated by Amarillo Animal Management & Welfare. The shelter has 122 kennels plus and an additional 20 kennels that are reserved for bite dogs.
A vibrant foster program is critical to increasing temporary shelter capacity. APHS will appoint a dedicated Foster Coordinator who will do nothing but manage the foster network. This will include creating weekly foster events, securing media promotion for foster events and actively dropping off and picking up foster animals. The latter will greatly enhance the number of available fosters.
APHS will initiate an outreach program to other communities within the Texas Panhandle that are affiliated with Amarillo Animal Management & Welfare (AAM&W). This includes using the APHS mobile surgery trailer to provide low cost spay/neuter to the affiliated community as well as low cost vaccinations. APHS will, whenever possible, expand its brand through the establishment of satellite offices within affiliated communities.
APHS will operate regular events at the shelter to draw people to the animals. By partnering with other community charities, citizens will be offered heavily discounted prices on foster animals: $20.17, $20.18, etc. in exchange for their support. This will take the form of donate a toy to Toys for Tots and get a discounted animal; donate a book and get a discounted animal; donate food to the Food Bank and get a discounted animal.
APHS and its partner, KAMR-TV, will build Panhandle-wide awareness. Under the banner "Jackie's Pet Picks," KAMR-TV anchor Jackie Kingston will promote foster animals that will be aggressively priced for adoption: $20.17, $20.18, etc. to build shelter awareness. KAMR will be the main platform for informing outlying communities of the mobile clinic services and the clinic schedule.
APHS will incorporate other media partners such as the Amarillo Globe-News and KGNC/The Eagle radio stations as well as radio stations in the outlying communities.
APHS proposes to fund this proposal through a combination of public and private funds.
The City of Amarillo will provide funding to APHS based on the combination of public donations and breeders fee. APHS will attempt to implement a $1 check-off donation program for the State of Texas.
City of Amarillo Funding: At least 18 municipalities in Texas currently provide funding to various local entities via public donations that are added to the water bill. Donations range from a low of $0.50/month to a high of $2.50/month.
APHS requests that the Amarillo City Council add a 90 cent ($0.90) check-off fee to the City of Amarillo monthly water bills. Fees will accrue to APHS on a monthly basis. Since APHS is a qualifying 501(c)(3) charity, all donations are tax deductible by the donor.
APHS will use the funds to establish and operate the reduced cost spay/neuter clinic, support rescue operations, increase foster operations and increase shelter support operations.
Oversight of funding will fall to the Amarillo Animal Advisory Board. At least one member of the Advisory Board will also have a seat on the APHS Board of Directors.
Indigent Fund: Animal owners will be charged a $3.00 fee at the time a rabies vaccination is administered. The fee will be collected by the organization administering the vaccination and remitted to the City of Amarillo. 100% of the fees will be applied to veterinary care provided to animals whose owners are unable to pay. The fee payment rate will be established by the APHS Board of Directors as part of the annual market survey. Oversight of collections and payment of claims will fall to the Amarillo Animal Advisory Board.
Breeders Fee: All fees collected through the Breeders Ordinance will accrue to the clinic.
Check-off Fee: APHS will seek to implement legislation in the Texas Legislature to institute a voluntary $1 Check-off Fee to annual vehicle registration whereby citizens can donate $1 to low cost spay/neuter facilities. The fee will accrue to recognized low cost spay/neuter facilities according to the zip code areas serviced by the facility.
APHS has initiated a donation drive on GoFundMe.com - the campaign is 90-Four-90. All funds raised will go to the establishment of the spay/neuter clinic. https://www.gofundme.com/aphs90four90
The clinic will charge for services provided. Charges shall be set at a rate not to exceed 70% of the average rate charged by five randomly selected local veterinary clinics. Prices will be adjusted annually in the month of July by the APHS Board of Directors.
Public-Private Partnerships are a way for public institutions without sufficient resources or expertise to leverage their needs. Commonly used overseas, PPP conveys a limited monopoly to a private institution for the purpose of performing a public function.
The City of Amarillo and the Amarillo-Panhandle Humane Society will establish a Public Private Partnership Agreement, under which APHS will assume the risk associated with establishing and operating the Panhandle Spay/Neuter Clinic: APHS will build, equip, staff and operate the clinic. In exchange, the City of Amarillo will collect all water bill donations and pass the funds to APHS on a monthly basis.
Breeders fees will be paid to the clinic on a quarterly basis.
In addition to receiving public donations, APHS will also receive all fees charged for the services provided. The clinic's fee structure will be set by the Board of Directors and will be below market rate as determined according to the terms specified in the PPP agreement.

Spartacus: Blood and Sand
Yeah, I know, I'm late to this party as this Starz TV series originally aired at the beginning of this year. Having just recently obtained Starz I had an opportunity to catch up via OnDemand, watching all thirteen episodes in the space of a week, despite Comcast mucking with the HD. It wasn't that I was really that bored or had lots of time on my hands, the series was really that compelling.
Now period pieces of this type I am usually all in or all out. I'm not a sword and sandal guy, and I don't really dig gladiator movies. They seem just a bit too gay bathhouse for me. Reality check – I haven't even seen all of Kirk Douglas' 1960 Spartacus by genius Stanley Kubrick. I guess I should fix that. On the other hand, I am a big fan of movies and programs about Rome and the history of that time. I loved "I Claudius" and HBO's "Rome" for instance. "Spartacus: Blood and Sand" falls solidly into the latter category. I loved it.
At first glance, I didn't think I was going to like it though. There is a lot of the slow motion blue screen CGI effects that made things like 300, Sin City and The Spirit so visually unique. While the comparison to 300 is obvious because of the time period and the violent content, I did not mean to compare "Spartacus" to the others. This has nothing to do with Frank Miller, because this TV series is actually good.
"Spartacus: Blood and Sand" is visually thrilling and something we haven't ever seen on television before, and that alone makes it must-see, but there is also a compelling story, addictive characters and performances that are better than most on TV. In all aspects, this is must-see-TV.
Just one of those performances you will only be able to see in this thirteen episode series unfortunately. Title actor Andy Whitfield was stricken with cancer and will not be returning to the series in its second season, but will make a brief appearance in the prequel series, "Spartacus: Gods of the Arena" that begins in January on Starz. He will be hard to replace, but rest assured I will be on hand for whatever comes next. This is truly great television.
20,000 Leagues Under Turok
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea ~ The 1952 Disney version is by far the best and most entertaining of this Jules Verne classic. I love the classic Disney opening with the book opening just like their animated films, even though this was their first live action film. Seeing Kirk Douglas sing "Whale of a Tale" is worth watching all by itself. Douglas and James Mason as Captain Nemo make this one rock. It does swerve into True Life Adventure territory from time to time and gets preachy in some places (as in the book) but this is still one of the best. I love Douglas' comment about Peter Lorre's eyes looking like soft-boiled eggs. One note about the closed-captioning on TCM however – it's very streamlined, changing the dialogue slightly for time, and it didn't make me very happy. Otherwise this is a great flick.
The Enchanted Cottage ~ Perhaps one of the greatest love stories ever filmed, this 1944 remake was originally written by Arthur Pinero to give hope and inspiration to soldiers who had been wounded in the first World War. It's a magical film, and I watch it every time it airs. Heartily recommended.
The 3 Worlds of Gulliver ~ Despite the fact that they are missing at least one if not more worlds that Gulliver visited this is still a pretty entertaining flick. The highlights include a wonderful score by Bernard Herrmann and not enough effects by Ray Harryhausen. Enjoyable for kids for than adults.
Turok: Son of Stone ~ Turok first began as a Dell Comics hero back in 1954, and began a rocky (pun unintended) journey through several other comics companies, like Gold Key, and later Valiant and Acclaim. The character has long achieved cult status eventually leading the property to become a video game and now, a direct-to-DVD movie. Always a reliable formula, Turok was a Native American warrior who stumbles upon a land inhabited by dinosaurs, hilarity ensues. Yes, Turok is a great character and it's a shame that he's pretty much wasted here. The animation is much the same simple stuff seen in the recent Marvel DVD features, no frills stuff. About all I can recommend here is the excellent score by James Venable which is superb.

Alan, I do eat meat and fish at most meals, (recently been having veggie soup for lunch) but Metformin stops the absorption of B12 from the stomach which is why it causes B12 deficiency in a lot of people, so simply eating the right things doesn't necessarily help.
Thx. I stand corrected.
Paul thank you for your lovely message! I am so touched.Mike - thanks for pointing out those chapters in the Walsh book. I will definitely read them!

Olympus Has Fallen (2013) Cinema Review
Every few years, Hollywood offers up dueling motion pictures in the same year, as the studios in question, desperate to capitalize on the new idea rush to be first. We've had Antz v.s. A Bugs Life, Dante's Peak v.s. Volcano, Deep Impact v.s. Armageddon. This year we have Olympus Has Fallen v.s. White House Down. History has shown the latter film is generally the superior product. And so it will be likely be with Olympus Has Fallen.
Following a fateful drive from Camp David, Secret Service agent Mike Banning (Gerard Butler) is racked by guilt following the death of First Lady Margaret Asher (Ashley Judd) in a car accident and subsequently demoted to detail at the Treasury office. Fast forward 18 months and President Asher (Aaron Eckhart) is hosting a delegation from South Korea when the White House is attacked by air and land, with insurgents managing to gain access into the building. When Asher and Korean entourage are ushered to a secure room within the White House against guidelines, Kang (Rick Yune), a turncoat North Korean agent holds Asher and key members of the executive hostage with a plan to arm the United States arsenal of nuclear weapons.
Despite his previous failure, Banning might be the only thing between not only the murder of the President of the United States, but the destruction of the country.
Releasing at a seemingly fortuitous time, as North Korea flexes its muscle (or lack thereof) on the world stage, Olympus Has Fallen represents a country still scarred 11 years on from the events of September 11.
Written by newcomers Creighton Rothenberger and Katrin Benedikt, the plot moves along at such a snappy pace, aiming to avoid the possibility that the audience might stop to analyze its unlikely nature. I mean, North Korea is a country that can't afford to fuel their defense planes, let alone make it to the continental United States. Still, there has to be a bad guy and studios can no longer afford to demonize China - now even tailoring films for the country (see Iron Man 3 and Looper), in a sign that the Eastern world is warming to Western entertainment.
Director Antoine Fuqua has had his fair share of career highlights and lowlights, helming Training Day and King Arthur in recent years. Olympus Has Fallen sits somewhere in between, neither reinvigorating the genre, nor registering on the Hollywood blockbuster season radar with anything more than a weak blip. Even bolstering by a reliable cast, including the likes Aaron Eckhart and Morgan Freeman, can do much to elevate it. However, perhaps the films greatest flaw is the rather unimpressive nature of its digital effects, undoubtedly some of the least convincing in recent memory, unsurprising due to their scope on such a tight budget of just $70 million.
Overall, Olympus Has Fallen is a typical modern action adventure, a breezy two hours of entertainment that serves as much nourishment as anything from the cinemas candy bar. Still, the nicest thing I can say about it is that it's now more Die Hard, than, well, Die Hard.

Oversized Sweater-c/o Rosewe, Scarf-Scarves.net (similar Merona Knit Infinity Scarf for $19.99), Leggings-Target, Boots-Naturalizer (similar Enzo Angolini Boots), Bag-Botkier
It may not be winter just yet, but now that it's getting dark at 5 pm it's definitely a reminder that it's coming. I know some people love the time change, but that extra hour of sleep isn't worth the loss of sunlight to me. I find winter to be so gloomy and depressing! But having a huge cozy sweater helps when it's so chilly out. Lucky for me, it's easy to find oversized sweaters when you're petite. I paired this one from Rosewe with an infinity scarf and leggings. If you need me, I'll be curled up on the couch under a blanket, drinking hot chocolate for the next 3 months.

There were a few problems I encountered whilst in the process of making this infograpics poster. Firstly I was very new to the software when I found out we had to use Adobe Illustrator, so I had to spend time just playing around with the software before I could properly start my poster as I wasn't comfortable with the software.
Having an idea change made me panic half way through doing my poster as I didn't think I would have time left. But it actually helped me, instead of struggling for ideas for my first idea, my second poster I was a lot more clear on and I knew where I was going with it.
Lastly, I struggled with the concept of the poster, my poster is nearly finished, but I need to do a few final finishing touches to make it, it's best. However I am worried that it looks to plain, I know they need to be simple and easy to read but I am worried that it isn't enough, but I will carry on thinking about new ideas to improve me work.

As America's economy rebounded, its taste for modern interior design grew. The Eames Lounge Chair, for example, which was entered into the Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection in 1960, became a ubiquitous symbol of sophistication and resonated with a whole new audience by the mid-'90s. However, since 1984, the Japanese yen has doubled in value against the American dollar. Good for Japan, bad for Watanabe's exports. So without much choice, Watanabe now finds himself selling furniture to the rest of the world at an inflated price.
Connected to Conde House's showroom is its factory, contained within a large, single room. A few feet into the room, Watanabe stopped and watched, as if for the first time, a computer-aided rounder racing along a piece of wood. It shaped the wood smaller with every lap, forming the rough shapes of arms and legs that would be finished by hand only a few feet away. Sawdust catching on his dark suit, he spoke of expansion.
In just the last decade, Conde House has partnered with six overseas agents to stock their furniture; four of these partnerships came in 2015. And earlier this year, Mr. Watanabe celebrated the opening of a showroom at the San Francisco Design Center. He wants to see the style of Asahikawa, a small, remote district in rural Japan, in every major city of the world.
For the past 14 years, Conde House has planted a tree for every one they have taken from the forest. A total of 40,000 trees have been planted.
Outside of the sporadic gray tufts of steel skylines — Sapporo, Niseko, Otaru — Hokkaido is primarily rural farmland and forest. Asahikawa is its hardwood heart. A huge concentration of Japanese ash and oak feed the region's furniture makers and paper mills, forming the foundation of a boomtown that never busted. During World War II, a nearby army base required wood and wooden products for the war effort, supporting a cross section of streets packed with furniture houses, all a stone's throw from one another. There are now 35 furniture makers in the area, ranging from one-man operations all the way up to Conde House, which employs 300 factory workers. Keeping all of this going is a commitment to sustainability that permeates every choice made during the design process.

It clearly says "Do Not Open" but who the heck listens to sticky notes anyways? You flip the book open and then everything goes to crap. A huge red tentacle bursts through the walls and grabs up your girlfriend and now you need to use the book of spells and fights an onslaught of evil creatures in hopes of getting her back.

Content Management Systems
The more you develop your online presence, the more you have to be aware of the different parts and details of your website and its content. Part of this means understanding content management systems. They are also referred to as CMS and they are designed to help manage content on websites. There are different content management systems, but they almost all include two parts: the content management application and the content delivery application or CMA and CDA, respectively.
Making Things Simpler
The content management application can actually make your life much easier. Likely, you don't know HTML (hypertext markup language) but you still want to make changes to your content. Through a CMA, you will be able to remove, create and modify content for your website. This allows you to have more control of your own website without having to turn to a webmaster every time you want to make a change.
Compiling Information
Once you have used the CMA to make changes and edit your website, then the CDA will actually compile all of that information and make updates to your website. This way, all that you have to do is make the changes you would like. Then, the CMS will put everything together and make sure all of the data is updated properly.
CMS Features
Every content management system will include its own set of features. Even if you have used a CMS before, that doesn't mean you will be fully aware of the features of a different one. However, most content management systems will include web-based publishing so that you do not have to download software, yet still have format management for ease of use, revision control so that you can make changes when you would like, and search and retrieval tools as well.
Web-based publishing means that you can use templates and wizards to put together your website so that it looks professional without having to hire a professional to do the work.
Other features of content management systems like format management will allow you to include documents of different types and formats. The feature will then put them in the proper format for use on the web, which will usually be HTML or PDF.
Thanks to the revision control, you don't have to worry about making a mistake. You can update the website to a new version with changes or you can roll it back to a previous version if needed.
Again, each content management system can have its own features. Some may be somewhat different while others are very much the same. The whole purpose of CMS is to make sure you can take control of your website without having to worry about hiring a web designer, and these features will allow you to do this.
The Systems
If you are looking for a content management system, you shouldn't be surprised when you find out that you have actually heard of some before. In fact, WordPress is considered one of the top contenders. According to reviews, the top content management systems on the market include:
- ocPortal
- WordPress
- WebGUI
- Drupal
- Rubedo
- Joomla
- eZ Publish Platform
- Modx
- Concrete5
There are many more CMSs out there. These are only the top ranked ones according to numerous web resources.
Content management systems will make your life easier. They allow you to do what you would like with your website without hiring a professional each time you make a few changes. By using one of these systems, you will more easily be able to add content, alter it, or delete it. Since your website does need to be updated regularly, you will be able to accomplish this more easily and quicker thanks to the right CMS.

Just in case you've been wondering where I have been the last few days, let's just say I've been home sitting on the floor scouring through back issues of the many American Cookery Magazines I have in my collection. You know what that means, right? Pens, pencils, notebooks, erasers (yes I still use erasers:) magazines, books, and lots of coffee cups strewn all over the place! Notice I didn't say computer:)
It may seem like a strange time of year to be tackling such a project. There's a reason. You see, this is my busiest time of the year also. As the new year approaches, there are lots of things I need to "note" in order to share another tidbit filled year of "edible" goodness with you. That entails date checking, fact verifying, and lots of lists. For instance, did you know that on April 30, 1789 George Washington took his oath of office as the first President of the United States?
On April 30, 1789, George Washington took the oath as the first president of the United States. The oath was administered by Robert R. Livingston, the Chancellor of New York, on a second floor balcony of Federal Hall, above a crowd assembled in the streets to witness this historic event. President Washington and the members of Congress then retired to the Senate Chamber, where Washington delivered the first inaugural address to a joint session of Congress. Washington humbly noted the power of the nations' call for him to serve as president and the shared responsibility of the president and Congress to preserve "the sacred fire of liberty" and a republican form of government.
That's 225 years ago folks. Well, almost...Do you think that calls for a celebration? I sure do. I just haven't decided whether "we" should celebrate in February for his birthday or in April. We'll see...How about this? In 1939, (75 years ago,) the New York World's Fair officially opened. Although it wasn't touted as the first World's Fair, the opening date was chosen to coincide with the 150th anniversary of George Washington's Inauguration. The slogan of the 1939-1940 New York World's Fair was "Building the World of Tomorrow." Now, you know we must delve into the history of Foods at the Fair!
Okay, just one more smackle to brighten your day. I haven't verified this nibble yet, but, I am almost positively sure about it. Here goes. There's a very good chance you chocolate lovers' will be baking up lots and lots of Chocolate Chip cookies in the coming year. Why? Well, according to my notes, Nestle's Semi-Sweet Morsels will be celebrating 75 years in 2014. (further research in the works:)
So what does all of this have to do with me being sprawled out on the living room floor paging through years and years of American Cookery Magazines? Lots actually. You see, not only are there peeks into times past in the kitchen, they are just brimming with tidbits of surprises.
Today, I would like to share just one of those surprises with you. It's a recipe for Chicken Sauté Rudyard Kipling as found in the April 1936 edition of American Cookery Magazine. Oh by the way, American Cookery was originally called The Boston Cooking School Magazine. The name was changed to American Cookery Magazine in 1914, 100 years ago in 2014!!!
I'm not quite sure why there is a recipe for Rudyard Kipling's Chicken Sauté in this particular issue. The only reason that comes to mind is that perhaps it is meant as a morsel of tribute to Mr. Kipling who passed away in January of the same year as this issue was published. Rudyard Kipling was awarded The Nobel Prize in Literature in 1907. At the age of 42, Rudyard Kipling was the youngest Nobel Laureate of his day.
Rudyard Kipling was born on December 30, 1865 in Bombay, but educated in England at the United Services College, Westward Ho, Bideford. In 1882 he returned to India, where he worked for Anglo-Indian newspapers. His literary career began with Departmental Ditties (1886), but subsequently he became chiefly known as a writer of short stories. A prolific writer, he achieved fame quickly. Kipling was the poet of the British Empire and its yeoman, the common soldier, whom he glorified in many of his works, in particular Plain Tales from the Hills (1888) and Soldiers Three (1888), collections of short stories with roughly and affectionately drawn soldier portraits. His Barrack Room Ballads (1892) were written for, as much as about, the common soldier. In 1894 appeared his Jungle Book, which became a children's classic all over the world.
Rudyard Kipling's early stories and poems about life in colonial India made him a great favorite with readers in Great Britain. However, we often forget that Rudyard Kipling Was a Great American. It was in Vermont that he wrote The Jungle Books, and Captains Courageous.
Beyond the very furthest range, where the pines turn to a faint blue haze against the one solitary peak—a real mountain and not a hill—showed like a gigantic thumbnail pointing heavenward. "And that's Monadnock," said the man from the West; "all the hills have Indian names. You left Wantastiquet on your right coming out of town."
Kipling wrote The Jungle Books, Captains Courageous, and many of his most familiar poems on the crest of a hillside overlooking the Connecticut River, with a view across the river valley of Mount Monadnock 'like a gigantic thumbnail," Kipling wrote, "pointing heavenward." [His house there, named by him Naulakha, afforded spectacular views of Mount Monadnock.] It is startling to learn that Kipling, who was born in Bombay and married a young woman from Brattleboro, hoped to remain in the United States. Over the years, he would presumably have become more and more of an American writer—English friends marveled at his American accent—just as the Polish writer Joseph Conrad and the American writer Henry James (who gave the bride away at Kipling's wedding) became increasingly English in their own adopted country.
...To Kipling, Naulakha came to symbolize all the positive qualities of rural Vermont, with its peacefulness and solitude, which have attracted writers and artists to the state for years....Naulakha, his estate in Dummerston, Vermont, is the only house ever built by Kipling and remains today much as it was when he left it. As a relatively small but intact late 19th century estate, the property would be significant for its architecture alone, even without the literary association. Kipling, however, as an architect's client, added his personal style to the design, based on his experiences in India. It is thus a dramatic cross-cultural expression, spanning two continents stylistically...
Kipling's verses are quoted almost as often as Shakespeare and the Bible. Most people are especially familiar with The Ballad of East and West, If— and Gunga Din, (a personal favorite of mine:) all of which are included in Songs for Youth. They also appear, along with all the other poems he has written, in the Collected Verse of Rudyard Kipling.
DIY: Rudyard Kipling immortalized Pisco Punch in his 1889 epic From Sea to Sea
Often credited to barman Duncan Nicol at the Bank Exchange, located where the Transamerica Pyramid now stands, Pisco Punch had a dramatic reputation: in 1889, Rudyard Kipling wrote that it was "compounded of the shavings of cherub's wings, the glory of a tropical dawn, the red clouds of sunset and the fragments of lost epics by dead masters," while others wrote that "it tastes like lemonade but comes back with the kick of a roped steer, and that "it makes a gnat fight an elephant."(Serious Eats)
While reading the Letters of Rudyard Kipling, published by the University of Iowa Press, I stumbled upon another interesting drink of note, "The Kipling." A brief check into the history or even the existence of such a drink has eluded me so far. However, I did find a recipe for the Pegu Club Cocktail which makes reference Kipling.
As you can see, you just never know what you may happen upon in the pages of an old book, or magazine for that matter. My goal is to share some of my findings with you throughout the year. While we're at it, we may as well share a few timely celebrations as well! Perhaps this 75 year old issue of American Cookery Magazine will pave the road!
Do you like "my" magnifying glass? Confession, it isn't "actually" mine. It was a freebie I picked up at a delightful blog called Lucky In Learning. Holly is a second grade teacher living in North Carolina. If you have little ones, you might want to pop by her creative teacher's blog.
The "Five Ws" (and one H) were memorialized by Rudyard Kipling in his Just So Stories; The Elephant's Child published in 1902.
I Keep six honest serving-men:
(They taught me all I knew)
Their names are What and Where and When
And How and Why and Who.
I send them over land and sea,
I send them east and west;
But after they have worked for me,
I give them all a rest.
I let them rest from nine till five.
For I am busy then,
As well as breakfast, lunch, and tea,
For they are hungry men:
But different folk have different views:
I know a person small--
She keeps ten million serving-men,
Who get no rest at all!
She sends 'em abroad on her own affairs,
From the second she opens her eyes--
One million Hows, two million Wheres,
And seven million Whys!

How might compatibility between cognitive style and cognitive climate influence individual job satisfaction and loyalty to employers?
Amongst business leaders and HR professionals, the need to understand what drives people to think and act in different ways at work is something of a never-ending task. Do people in similar jobs perceive and process information in the same way? What happens if people exhibit cognitive styles reckoned to be less suited to the jobs they do, or if they work in cognitive climates that seem alien to them but perfect for their colleagues? And which functional teams or employees should management watch more closely than others if they're to avoid losing them to competitors?
A study by researchers at Vlerick Business School shows that employees with a creating-oriented cognitive style (typically intuitive and receptive to change or new ideas) are more likely to want to change jobs if they find the predominantly cognitive climate not to their liking. But those with a knowing-oriented style (logical and objective) or planning-oriented style (structured and orderly) are less likely to make a dash for it.
However, cognitive style and cognitive climate appear to have separate influences on people's attitudes to their work – which means that, regardless of the predominance of one climate over another, understanding those relationships is essential for job design, selection, assessment, training and workforce planning.
While people might consciously change their behaviour or make different decisions, cognitive style itself typically remains unchanged, regardless of workplace environment. A good fit between cognitive style and cognitive is likely to result in better job satisfaction and greater employer loyalty, and even more successful careers. A mismatch might precipitate high staff turnover, low levels of motivation, more interpersonal conflict and higher levels of work-related stress.
An emphasis on workplace culture and employer branding as part of wider talent attraction and retention strategies illustrates the importance companies attach to providing environments conducive to a happy, motivated, productive workforce. However, people with different cognitive styles typically prefer and respond differently to different stimuli – often with inexplicable inconsistency. Analytical thinkers may like the certainty provided by stability, structure and order, while more intuitive types prefer (and thrive on) flexibility, autonomy and dynamic change. But, people being people, complacent stereotyping is a dangerous game for employers. It might often help if everyone's on the same wavelength – but without proper management insight, a workplace of clones may simply mark time, and might even do more harm than good.
Understanding the impact of cognitive fit on performance is important for management development, industrial and organisational psychology and entrepreneurship. But with so many potentially influencing factors, it's an inexact science. For instance, do people who enjoy their work perform better as a result – or do people who perform well enjoy their work more? What impact might a good supervisor or mentor have on a worker's performance or job satisfaction? And how might supervising or mentoring workers who have made up their minds to leave affect supervisors or mentors' own performances? What difference would it make if supervisors or mentors haven't yet been made aware that workers want to leave?
Favourable cognitive fits may well enhance productivity and performance alongside commitment and retention, and generally make for a happier place to come to work. But the potential magnitude of the impact expected from a mismatch is less certain – especially as cognitive climates are often subject to significant variations within the same organisation, or even within functional teams.
Workers who find themselves in atmospheres to which they're plainly unsuited don't necessarily make immediate plans to leave. Even if they wished they could, a perceived lack of alternative jobs elsewhere may hold them back. Some might decide to wait until whatever or whoever they hold responsible for their unhappiness or frustration disappears. Others may decide it's worth holding on for the sake of their long-term prospects, or hope for a sideways transfer. But even those who proactively start scouting around for new opportunities may have to wait for several weeks or months before a satisfactory offer transpires. How do they – and their colleagues who for their own reasons decide to stick it out – cope with the negative impact of the cognitive mismatch?
People may be capable of making short-term adjustments to their behaviour (and performance) until they're ready (or able) to safely jump ship from the cognitive climate they've been enduring rather than enjoying. But everyone's tolerance threshold is unique; for many, trying to suppress their natural behaviour at work may simply generate unhealthy, self-perpetuating stress. Does it follow that their job satisfaction will suffer, or that their desire to leave will intensify, to the extent that they might even make poor decisions about their career?
Vlerick's researchers found that certain cognitive climates were more common amongst some job functions than others:
However, cognitive climate alone appears not to be a reliable indicator of job satisfaction, intention to leave or job search behaviour. Those with creating-oriented cognitive styles demonstrate stronger intentions to leave mismatched climates and look for new jobs than their peers with knowing or planning styles. But the impact on job satisfaction is more consistent - the results indicate that a snug cognitive fit doesn't automatically confer higher levels of job satisfaction than a misfit.
A deeper understanding of the relationships between cognitive styles and cognitive climates can only serve to enlighten all those with a stake in effective talent attraction, performance management and retention. This includes individual workers themselves, not just their managers. But whether selection processes are built to match people with the right technical skills to jobs, or jobs to people with the right cultural affinity, there are advantages and disadvantages to the quest to find the perfect match. And in any case, even if all the boxes are ticked, cognitive fit may occasionally – for reasons both random and unexpected – still have little bearing on the intentions, actions and feelings of workers.
Transformation is one of the key drivers of the business world – and more so as national and global economies recover. And the employment landscape is increasingly characterised by mobility, flexibility and transience. With that in mind, everyone – employees and their colleagues, senior management teams and business owners – will always need to anticipate, embrace and adapt to new norms, even where cognitive climate and cognitive styles are compatible.
Researchers used data collected from people looking to change jobs or manage their long-term careers (ie not students or the unemployed) on Vacature.com, a Belgian website:

Initial Consultation: After contacting me for an appointment, I will come to your home for an initial consultation.There we will discuss what type of service best suits your needs. I will listen and learn about your goals, what's working or not in your space, which items we can re-use or re-purpose, which items may need purchased, and we'll discuss a budget. From there you can determine your desire to move forward, either on your own, or with additional services from my team. Essentially, we will evaluate the "next steps".
$125-one hour consultation, $50 additional 1/2 hour
Color Consultation: Are you ready to add a new paint color to your space? Whether it be one room or multiple, I have seen MANY times over the powerful change created by a new paint color. I have been trained and certified as a Color Consultant, and have a complete set of Sherwin-Williams paint colors to bring to your home. If you have made costly mistakes with paint selections in the past, you know how frustrating it can be. Let me show you how the correct choice of paint can be an amazing decorating tool!
$150-one hour consultation, $50 additional 1/2 hour, to include large sized color samples for you to keep.
Interior Decorating: Generally this is achieved using a combination of things you may already own but with the addition of new items as well, which may include furniture, rugs, artwork, lighting, window treatments, and other decorative accents. Naturally every person is at a different place at the beginning of a project and that is why the Initial Consultation is so very important. Once all the items are in and ready to go, we will return to your home for "decorating day" to arrange furnishings, install artwork or groupings, accessorize, and put all the beautiful "final touches" in your space to complete the new look.
Starting at $400 per room, depending on the size and scope of the project, to be determined at the Initial Consultation
Personal Shopping: I do A LOT of shopping for my clients! In between the time of our Initial Consultation and my return to your home for hands-on decorating, I may have acquired a lot of new home decor items or just a few, depending upon our discussion at the Initial Consultation. I know where to go for what, I hand-select items I believe are perfect for you AND your room, I stay within your determined budget, and I pass on my decorator discounts where possible. Shopping for home decor items can be time-consuming, confusing and overwhelming. Relax, and let me do it!
$85 per hour, a time range will be estimated depending on number of items
Interior Redesign: Often a client will already have the things necessary to create a beautiful home, but need help "putting it all together" in the most pleasing way possible. It takes a trained eye to see your things in a new light, to determine the best possible furniture arrangement, and the most creative and attractive way to arrange and display the things that are important to you and your family. If possible, we ask that you are not at home when this service is being provided so that we may work more quickly and efficiently and to provide a "surprise" element. You will be delighted when you return home to see the results of your "new" room, using the things you already own!
Starting at $400 per room, depending on size and scope of the project, to be determined at Initial Consultation
Home Staging To Sell: Simply put, houses that SHOW well, sell quicker, AND for top dollar! If you are preparing to put your home on the market, it truly MUST have maximum appeal to prospective buyers. It is greatly beneficial to have your home staged BEFORE it is listed, BEFORE a realtor's tour, BEFORE an open house, and BEFORE any photos are taken for media purposes. First impressions are everything! It is sometimes difficult to look at your own home with objectivity and as a potential buyer would see it. We'll give you tips on clearing out and cleaning up, proper furniture arrangement, and simple techniques to give your home a fresh, spacious, and updated look. We will work with a homeowner using their own things, OR through a realtor.
$150-one hour walk-through with suggestions to the homeowner, $50 additional 1/2 hour OR $400 for three hours of "hands on" staging, sometimes Personal Shopping is suggested
Move-In Design: It is challenging moving from one home to another and making the best possible use of your existing furniture and accessories. We have seen this scenario so many times, and it seems that a homeowner's natural tendency is to have the movers place things just as they were in their former home. We understand this tendency, but very often it just doesn't work. Let us help you place your furnishings and accessories in your new home in the most pleasing, most comfortable, and most creative way possible. The moving-in process can be overwhelming and exhausting. The boxes are unpacked and now what? We have helped MANY clients through this process and we can help you too. Soon you will feel relaxed and "at home" in your new space!
Starting at $400 per room, depending on size and scope of a project, to be determined at Initial Consultation
Accessorizing/Styling ONLY: You have your furniture in place but you are unsure how to finish off the room. This is a very common issue among our clients, and yet it is this segment of decorating that TRULY gives a room personality. Why not have us out to style and accessorize your space? Whether it's hanging art, creating wall groupings, accessorizing ledges, tabletops, cabinets, bookshelves, cabinet tops, or niches, we do that!
$125 per hour, Personal Shopping may be suggested
Window Treatment Installation: There are so many places to obtain attractive ready made treatments and hardware today. Let us shop for yours and bring them along to any of the above-described services we offer. Time and time again we see how they add the "final touch" to a newly-decorated room, and at a fraction of the cost of custom-made! In some cases, custom is necessary, and then we work with a quality seamstress.
$65 per window, includes steaming or pressing of fabric (Curtains and shopping time not included.)
*For hands-on work in your home, my trusted and outstanding assistant will accompany me on the job.
*Many of our services are discounted when doing multiple rooms in one day. Please ask!

It turns out that 85% of crafters say that what keeps them from crafting more is time so it only makes sense to for them to have tools that let them create when an idea strikes them and you never know when that will be.
One thing people always carry with them is their phone. Now iPhone users will be able to design and cut with their phones and you will be very impressed with how clear and legible the app is, even on an iPhone 5S (my model). Soon Android users will also be able to enjoy this capability!!!
This video goes into detail about some of the very cool things you can do with the Design Space iPhone app.
The reason Cricut decided on a Cloud model was so that their users could design from anywhere, at any time during the day, have all images in the library and all of their own images available at all times and on all platforms.
The only way to do this without having to require users to download, install and maintain a huge software application was to use a Cloud model. You can only imagine how big the software would have to be to hold all that data. Updates would have been a nightmare and crafters do not want to be spending their precious crafting time updating software. Updates will soon be completely seamless. This means that updates will be automatic and users won't need to take any action.
Another benefit of using a Cloud model is that when you save a project, it is available to you on all platforms. This means they will be accessible via Design Space on the desktop, iPad and iPhone (and eventually other devices).
Even the plugin issue will soon be resolved and updates will no longer be an issue.
Below are some of the things you can expect in coming months:
- Design Space Services (beta testing starting soon)
- iPhone and iPad app release (beta preview below -- iPhone and iPad apps will be identical)
- Offline capability for iOS (iPhone and iPad devices) requiring no cell coverage or wifi
- Android app (development is fully underway)
- Patterns (Imagine patterns and your own patterns
- Larger print sizes for Print then Cut
- Shell app (making it unnecessary to use a browser)
The video below is a quick presentation of key screen shots:
