So your dogs birthday is coming and you have been throwing around the idea of having a proper birthday party for him.You're not sure where to start, who to invite, or what activities you could possibly do. Time to put that creativity to the test!
Today, I am going to share how to throw an epic dog birthday party!
- Who to invite? There are a couple different things you could do here. Do you have friends with dogs? If so, invite them, and have a visit with your friends while the dogs enjoy the party! If you don't know many people with dogs, do you visit a local dog park? Ask around! You might be surprised with how many people would be anxious to attend a dog party! If all else fails, post online!! Send out a public invite to your local friends on social media and see what you can come up with!
- No birthday is complete without cake! But what sort of cake would you have for a dog party? Check out some recipes via google, trust me... you will find LOADS!
- Snacks! For summer birthday parties, see my previous post for yummy (super easy to make) summer fun dog treats! Otherwise, raw baby carrots are always a hit in my house, as well as bananas! Not all dogs like fruit and veggies though, so you might want to think about other snacks. Head out to your local pet shop and see what they have!
- You will need some activities as well. If you have a fenced in yard, bring the pooches outside with a handful of toys!
- Another fun dog activity for a party would be hide and sniff! Again, a fenced in yard will be your pet friend when dealing with multiple dogs at a party - hide some yummy treats around your yard, make some places harder to find than others, and let the dogs do the rest!
- Scavenger hunt! If you have a bit of property this is perfect. Otherwise, find a local dog-friendly trail and set up a small scavenger hunt for the owners and dogs. There should be hints along the way, yummy treats as rewards, and lots of walking to tire out those pups!
- Dog paw painting! Set up a finger (paw) painting session! Some paper, some pet safe non toxic paint, dip the paws and away they go!
- Fashion show! Set up an outdoor fashion show for dogs! Have some fun things such as tiaras, a few feathery boas, and a judge! Have the owners walk the runway with their pup all dressed up, and the winner will get a prize bag!
- Speaking of prize bags... why not have some pup grab bags for all to leave the party with?! Put small items such as poop bags, treats or a small toy in each bag.

A Females Perspective With Rehab
Ten years ago, I never could have imagined myself going to rehab. I was never a wild kid; my friends actually made fun of me for being so straight laced. I did a little bit of drinking at college, but I never took things too far. I liked being in control, and I knew that drugs and alcohol would take control away from me.
However, all that changed after I was in a terrible car accident. It was a traumatic experience for me, and it was hard for me to feel like I had any control over my life after that. I was also dealing with some serious chronic pain.
To treat the pain, my doctor prescribed prescription painkillers. They solved the problem, but they may have worked a little too well. When I took the painkillers, I wasn't stressed and terrified about the state of my life anymore. I was able to relax and enjoy myself. I wanted to keep feeling that way for as long as I could.
When my prescription ran out, I started to look into other options. I found a new way to get the kinds of opiates I wanted. Before long, I had a full-blown addiction.
I started doing anything I could to get my hands on pills. I engaged in behavior that I am ashamed of. Eventually, this behavior started to stand out to my family and friends.
When people first started to confront me about my addiction, I tried to deny everything. I think some people believed me, at least at first. Because I had always been seen as "the good girl," it was hard for them to picture me as a drug addict. I look nothing like the celebs on my home page
Eventually, however, I had to admit that I had a serious problem. Thankfully, there were still people that were willing to help me get into rehab so that I could get back on track.
Once I had decided that I wanted to get rehab, I had to find a place to get rehab. I didn't know where I should look for something like this. I didn't know if there were facilities that treated people like me.
I swallowed my pride and told my doctor about my problem. He wasn't judgmental at all, and he provided me with the names of a few facilities in my area.
After talking with my mom, we decided that we should tour the facilities in person. Because I was not well during that time, she wound up looking at the facilities for me. She set up a few meetings and came back to me with information.
We decided on a facility that was about an hour away from home. We picked this facility for several different reasons. First, this facility treated opiate addiction, which was what I was dealing with. Second, the facility offered treatment for withdrawal symptoms and therapy. I knew I needed help with both aspects of addiction. Lastly, the facility would let my friends and family members be a part of my treatment.
Once we had decided on a facility, I had to pack my bags and get ready to go.
Entering Rehab
My family drove me to rehab, which is something I really appreciated. I was still scared of cars after my accident, and I liked being around people that supported me.
They checked me in and left me behind. I was really scared at first, but I felt a lot better when I saw how caring the staff was. Most of the staff was female, which made me feel more comfortable. I wanted to be around other women at this difficult time.
I was shocked at how sick I felt once I really started to withdraw from the pills I took. I knew I would feel sick, but I didn't expect it to be as bad as it was. I was so grateful to be around medical staff who could take care of me during this time.
The symptoms were the worst in the first few days, but I still felt ill and weak after that. I was glad to be an environment where I could spend most of my time relaxing.
A huge part of rehab was therapy, which I really needed. I don't think I would have become addicted to pills in the first place if I had sought out therapy later on. It was nice to be surrounded my people that had gone through the same things I had. I knew it was a judgement-free zone.
While I regret a lot of my past choices, I know that there is nothing I can do to change them. Drug rehab gave me the ability to move past those choices and make better choices in the future. Now, I feel confident that I will be able to keep living a sober life.

Today another woman has come forward to share her story about how Trump sexually assaulted her.
Karena Virginia Becomes 10th Woman to Accuse Trump of Sexual Misconduct
"I knew who he was, but I had never met him. He was with a few other men," she said at a press conference in New York Thursday. "I was quite surprised when I overheard him talking to the other men about me. He said, 'Hey, look at this one, we haven't seen her before. Look at those legs.' As though I was an object, rather than a person."
"He then walked up to me and reached his right arm and grabbed my right arm, then his hand touched the right inside of my breast. I was in shock. I flinched," she continued.
How many more women have to come forward to share their stories before Trump and his supporters start to take this issue seriously?

a reply to: Jonjonj
She is an actress. From her website:
Karena is a deeply spiritual yoga teacher, motivational speaker, healer, miracles counselor and spiritual coach. As a child she was highly sensitive to angels and perceived the deep human need for sharing and uplifting one another. She began her path as spiritual teacher while working in the entertainment industry as a television actress and model recognizing that heart centered compassion was the tool for happiness. Karena incorporates the Law of Attraction and physics to co-create with Spirit, and become a magnetic being of pure love and miraculous force.
She has been a certified yoga instructor in the Kundalini and Hatha schools for nearly twenty years. Karena released the acclaimed Kundalini Yoga video "Abundance and Miracles" in 2013 and released her itunes app "Relax and Attract with Karena" in 2014. She writes for The Huffington Post as well as her own blog, and was recently featured on Veria Living and Bravo TV. Her teaching encompasses subjects as wide as yoga, fulfillment, fertility, meditation, deep relaxation and angelic connection. Karena shares a radiant healing presence and heart centered awareness that inspires all to live a life of miracles, love, light and joy.
Not only is she an actress, a charlatan and snake-oil salesman, but she writes for the Huffington Post!!!! Convenient.

Can you prove any of these women have any connection at all to the DNC or the Clinton campaign?
Can you prove any of these women's conveniently timed stories?
They're both speculation but Ockham's razor says their lying. If these women came forward at any other time than during an election(especially the last month) I'd be more inclined to believe them over Trump.

Don't forget he commented on her legs, as though she was an object. Those sorts of comments can stay with a person for life.
The reason why she only came out now is because it took her 20 years of intensive psychotherapy to muster the courage to exact revenge on her assailant.
As if human beings aren't objects by definition. This election really is about political correctness. Trump compliments someone, they get disgusted and are traumatized.

Deep down she was ecstatic that a rich and famous man like Trump thought she had nice pins.

Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video Creating vignettes with the Radial Filter tool, part of Photoshop CC 2013 New Features.
In this movie, I'll show you how to create a couple of custom vignettes using …the new Radial Filter tool, inside Camera Raw. …And along the way we'll take this portrait photograph from the Fotolia …image library and we'll convert it into this final effect here. …And a great thing about working this way is you can set your vignettes anywhere …you like inside the image. They don't have to be centered inside the …image as a whole, and they can be elliptical or circular. …And you can pile on as many vignettes as you like.…
I'll go ahead and switch over to my starter image, which is a flat JPEG file, …so I'll be applying Camera Raw as a Smart Filter. …First step is to convert the background to a layer by double-clicking on it, here …inside the Layers panel. And I'll go ahead and name this layer …Woman, and then click OK. Next I'll right-click inside the image …window with the Rectangular Marquee tool, and I'll choose Convert to Smart Object. …Now go up to the Filter menu and choose Camera Raw filter, or you can press …

Ynetnews reports: A 30-year-old Reserves Captain Eliav Gelman was killed Wednesday afternoon by gunfire targeting a terrorist who attempted a stabbing attack at the Gush Etzion Junction south of Jerusalem.
Gelman's brother is married to the sister of soldier Benaya Sarel, who was killed during Operation Protective Edge.
Eyal Gelman, the deceased's brother and Kiryat Arba's security guard, eulogized him. "My brother fell in battle," he said. "In a battle that we have known for a long time. But the people of Israel have experienced the battles and the pogroms since the first battle in 1873. My brother, too – my dear brother – you entered this circle, the same silver tray that for 150 years this people, this revival generation continues to redeem the land of Israel and build the State of Israel. God have given and God has taken away, may the name of the Lord be blessed."

on the Begin Upload button. MIS2000 will connect to the server. Wait
patiently for the process to completed. By using this feature, you will receive any new ECOEs from recruiters or Approved ECOEs from the ID&R/MIS2000 office.
Uploading changes to State computer (also known as The Server)
When you do an upload to the state computer, the work you have done in
MIS2000, such as entering COEs and adding enrollment information, will
be copied to the state database. You should do an upload to your state at least twice a day. The state database should always have an updated copy of your work.
1. Go to the Procedures menu, then select Upload Changes. The Upload
Status window will appear.
2. Press the Begin Upload button. When your changes have finished
uploading to the server, you will see one of two things:

MIS2000 will then show you Janet's COE(s).
NOTE: If the "To COEs" menu item is grayed out (you aren't allowed to select it), then that child does not have a COE in your database. If that is the case, please send the information to the ID&R/MIS2000 Director
The View menu allows you to flip between the COE, COE Draft, and Student views.
- Student View contains screens for school history,

- COE Draft contains the same screens as the COE View but it is exclusively use to review the ECOEs completed by recruiters. If you want to see if you have any new ECOE and Approve the ECOE, you need to be on COE Draft view.
NOTE: Changing the view does not take you to the COE/COE Draft/Student Data of the student you are currently working on. If you wish to see the COE/Student Data of your currently selected student, choose the Go pull-down menu.
Clicking on Help shows two choices.

With the birth of Romanticism, came the creation of so many beautiful and gracious ideas. These ideas preached individualism, emotions, spontinaiety and it led to the creation of a holy being – The Romantic.
The Romantic is a creature beset on finding another individual know as 'The One". The Romantic toils to find this person, taking on what appears like a noble quest equal challenge and nobility of that of the Crusades.
But this led to the creation of the ideal of monogamy, which in previous centuries was considered quite odd. Although some would argue that monogamy serves a grand purpose, and under Christian thinking it is a necessary element to combat the deadly sin of Lust. But I would argue that it has led to the welding of two ideas that should've remained seperate. The idea of Romantic Attraction and that of Sexual Attraction.
Under romanticism, intercourse is the epitomal representation of romantic attraction. The act represents the granddeur of one's own emotions. Creating an equation where Romantic Attraction + Sexual Attraction = Love. But this leads to many potential problems, aptly, that it's unsustainable. Romantic Attraction can last for decades, but sexual attraction can, at best, last only a few years. The nature of sexuality, is that it is an internal drive to procreate. If someone is no longer deemed a suitable individual for the creation of life, then sexual attraction diminishes. This can lead to, and often does, the break up of marriages, and relationships.
But what if the two were not synonmous? What if you could love one person, yet be sexually attracted to any number of individuals. That was the overbearing belief of many people from the classical period. Kings and Emporers were known for having concubines, or mistresses, but although these are old examples, we have more modern examples of relationships which are polysexual, polyamorous, or open. These recognise that Romantic Attraction + Sexual Attraction ≠ Love, rather opting for the better interpretation that Romantic Attraction = Love.
This methodology of thinking creates more sustainable relationships, by removing the social norm that one must be indefinietly sexually attracted to their romantic partner, admitting the flaws, and nature of mankind.
With a small, but existing shift towards more open relationships in western society, we are seeing not a reversal of romantic thinking, but an evolution towards a thinking that considers some of the more human values of mankind. This growth is leading to the creation of a new Neo-Romantic societal norm, which hopefully will begin to counteract some of the flaws that classic romantic thought has created.

Vengeance v Merlin et alia (part 1)
The hunt:
Usually, when I'm looking for targets I head south. This takes me through some real hot spots, like Aeschee and OMS. On this particular day, though, I went north to Ouelleta.
Warping to a hunting safe, I scanned the system, which is very small. There was a Merlin sitting in a belt, and a number of Heretic Army pilots in local, either cloaked or docked up. Obvious bait is obvious.
Nevertheless, I decided to warp in on the Merlin; if you avoid everything that looks like bait you miss a lot of good fights. And this was bait I could probably kill, at least.
Preloading Gremlin Rage, I jumped in on the Merlin and found him sitting at zero. I set my orbit to 5km; I wanted to keep my speed up against his rockets and in the falloff of his blasters. I kept him webbed and pointed, and set to work.
However he was fit, his tank was solid! Still, I had him at about half shields before we were joined by a Slicer and the Taranis. Overheating my repair system, I tried to buy enough time to take at least one of them with me.
As the fight continued, I kept an eye on the two dps ships. Both were keeping me at range, but not so much I did not think I could snag one. Still, the Merlin was not going down easy, and I was at about 20% armor when he exploded.

I then turned my attention to the Taranis; he seemed easier to catch than the Slicer, who simply did not need to come as close. Unlike his friend, the Taranis seemed to have very little tank, so after I pointed and webbed him, I began to tear into his ship.
My repair system could not keep up with the incoming dps, despite the destruction of the Merlin. My armor kept dropping, and the Taranis dipped through shields and then armor. Unfortunately, my hull gave out while the Taranis was at about 50% structure.

Warping out my pod, we all wished each other a "gf" in local.
Looking at the killmail, the Merlin was set up to be all tank, including healthy EM resists. Very clever, and clearly why it took me so long to kill him.
Focusing on the Merlin when his friends showed up was a mistake, albeit an understandable one. His dps was negligible, and his tank was ridiculous. If I had switched focus to the Taranis right away, I could have permatanked the remaining damage while I came back to the Slicer and the Merlin.
In other words, if I had prioritised my targets more effectively, I probably would have come out the winner. Instead, I made the same mistake that other people make when they focus on me in a gang, and I wasted much of my effective dps for little benefit. I've got to come to grips with the fact that many fights are more than simply managing your ship and modules; such things are important, but outside of 1v1s they are only a small part of the overall skillset.
Still, I'm pretty pleased that I managed to take someone with me in a 3v1.

To say it was 3v1 I don't think you did bad at all!ReplyDelete
In my (albeit limited) experience I've started assuming that everyone I fight will have patched up their resist hole, much like the Merlin did with the EMP rig.
In these conditions I've opted to use ammunition that deals damage against what their second worst resist would normally be as it would now be their worst resist after rigging, if that makes sense.
Sounds like an accurate assessment - it's a common mistake (we all make it) to stick with our original target even after circumstances change and another target becomes preferable.ReplyDelete
On Cable's suggestion - it's my experience that shield tankers most commonly fit 1 EM rig and 2 extender rigs, mainly due to resist rigs being so cheap. Armour tankers seem to patch their Explosive hole much more rarely, usually opting for 3 trimarks, since there is little to no pricing difference.
Because of this, I find thermal is usually the weakest resist on a t1 shield tanker, while explosive is still usually the weakest for armour tankers.
Obviously, this only applies to PVP-fit ships - PvEers generally don't rig for resist, they rig for cap or regen (although they may fit rat-specific hardeners too).
When I fit shield ships, I usually opt for 2 em resist and 1 thermal resist rigs, letting me use that extra midslot for a second extender, or maybe some EWAR, or worst case, an invuln field.ReplyDelete
When I armor tank ships, I typically go beyond the 1 explosive rig and with supplement that with some sort of resistance plating, EANM, or hardener. Some ships are just a given to use Explosive ammo against, and following the standard one-patch method just doesn't cut it. It helps that I can't usually fit the t2 gyro in place of that resistance plating anyways.
I agree with the others, sometimes it is tough too give up on that target especially once you have put some damage on them. However a ranis can put the hurt on fast if you are in their optimal and safest to clear that threat out asap.ReplyDelete
Personally for me I generally fly a Caldari ship so I don't switch ammo type since my skills will generally give me such a huge boost to kinetic that it offsets the resist difference. I have just started to fly Min so I will start to mess around with damage types. As others have stated expect most people to be plugging up the EM hole for 2 main reasons. Dram/Cyn/Min use Republic Fleet EMP like 90% of the time and Amarr use Scorch 90% of the time. So between these three factions 90% of the time it is EM damage.

Engagement sessions are a great way for us to get to know one another, and to show us how you respond in front of the camera. Everyone reacts differently in front of the lens, and on your wedding day things are usually a bit rushed and nerves are high, so becoming comfortable with each other beforehand is priceless! Best of all, engagement sessions are always included at no extra cost to you when you book us for your wedding. It's a win-win!
While you may feel like it looks too fake or heavy in person, it will look better on camera, we promise! It is even a great idea to schedule your wedding makeup trial for your wedding day on the day of your engagement session. Not sure what you want that look to be yet? That's ok! It's still a great opportunity to have a trial run with your makeup artist to make sure you both jive and for them to get to know your skin better!
2. Wear clothes that fit you well!
Nothing too baggy or too tight as these things are accentuated on camera and usually end up not being very flattering. If you feel like you have to constantly adjust something, then it's probably not going to be a good idea for wearing during your session.
Rich colors look fantastic,, turquoise, deep red, rich green...ect. You and your love should coordinate your colors without being too "matchy matchy". We are more than happy to help with this- please feel free to ask us for suggestions.
Belts, hats, scarves, necklaces, and of course very cool shoes. Don't underestimate the power of some fantastic shoes or hat at a photo shoot! Show some personality with your accessories. Look at some pictures in magazines and of course pintrest if you are having trouble putting together a look. See what you like and go shopping, have fun!
5. Bring multiple options for outfits to the shoot!
It is always a good idea to have choices. Sometimes there are things that we know will not work well on camera or with the chosen location, so it is best to have backup options.
6. Men, be aware of your socks!
There is nothing worse than a great shot of you with some white tube socks taking all the attention away! Ladies, also remember to not wear tight socks before the shoot as well, as they do leave marks!
7. Watches, Bracelets, Rings- Proceed With Caution!
These are typically not accessories that add to the shot; they can be quite distracting at times. Picture a sweet shot of your hand gently touching your love's cheek....but wait, a big shiny metal watch is stealing the show! However, of course if it is a piece that is special to you, we can help work it in. There can be exceptions to this rule as well depending on your personal fashion- like the badass statement bracelet in the shot above! If in doubt, bring it with you and we can help decide if it adds to the shot or is too distracting.
The most important thing to remember is to try to relax. Focus on each other and not us. We will direct you and help you to know what to do. We will give you more direction if needed, but we are not talking, just keep snuggling or smooching! Just be you!
9. Some lovely affectionate gestures that look great on camera:
A kiss on the cheek, nose, forehead, or even an exposed shoulder. You can smile or close your eyes when your love does this. Even whispering something naughty or sweet into each other's ears makes for a great natural reaction!
10. Remember that you are in love!
That is why you are doing this; it is more about that than looking perfect. Be yourself, have fun and let us take care of the rest!
Lastly- Congratulations on your engagement!! You have such a fun and exciting journey ahead of you. It can be easy to get bogged down during the planning process of a wedding, but remember to take time for yourselves to reflect on why you are taking this journey together.You have the opportunity to make some beautiful memories- so breathe, be present, laugh, and love!

Fool Portfolio Report
Monday, August 4, 1997
by David Gardner (firstname.lastname@example.com)
ALEXANDRIA, VA, August 4, 1997 -- Three years ago this merry day, Foolishness was truly born.
Erik Rydholm, Tom Gardner, and I had been running a silly little newsletter for our friends (or, as it turned out, our parents' friends) the previous year. It had the name The Motley Fool, and we'd been written up briefly in The Wall Street Journal, and again in Forbes. What lay in store for us online, however, we'd never have guessed.
Oh sure, it wasn't a tough decision to make at the time. We closed down our small print newsletter -- which we believed would pay us more than we'd get from AOL that first year, which we were wrong about -- in order to start something which would surely be forward-thinking, surely be "The Future" eventually, whenever The Future should prove to emerge.
On this day, I can say with certainty that The Future is here. Three years later, we have half a million online readers, five million newspaper readers, one decent book and a couple more on the way in '98, and 95 full-time employees. But those achievements pale in comparison to the scope of our future plans. We think we've made a good start, nothing more.
Most important, it's just been one heck of a lot of fun! From the pinball machine here in Fool HQ that we're constantly breaking due to overuse, to a great bull market with a market-doubling portfolio, to the opportunity to hire and work alongside many of our best friends, it has been fun, fun, fun. And our daddy ain't taking our T-bird away, either. So we're looking for much more of same, and expect to provide oodles for you. As a company, we will be entering many new fields in the next 10 years, doing so always with the idea of debunking the conventional wisdom, improving the consumer experience, and spreading sweetness and light ahead and behind, creating shared pleasures for our customers.
Yeah, I'm proud to be a Fool. And it's my earnest hope that you share these very same sentiments, dear reader, with every bit as much fervor. Foolishness is open to all -- only those without a sense of humor, an open mind, or a kind spirit need not board The Ship of Fools. From everyone here at Fool HQ, I wish to thank you deeply for your support of our efforts. And as always, we rely as much on your constructive criticism as your praise. Please keep both flowing copiously, as together we encounter the friendly trade winds and occasional dark shoals of Life.
Three years to the day since the launch of The Fool Portfolio, we sit on a total market return (all expenses deducted) of 214%. That's exactly double the S&P 500 over the same period, which closed today up 107%. There were certainly no guarantees, when Tom and I sat down and started this on August 4, 1994, that we would beat the market. We started the portfolio with the idea that average investors would beat Wall Street if they followed a Foolish strategy and vowed to learn from their (many) mistakes. Over any short-term period, you never quite know how you'll do. But as the days pass and short terms become longer terms, we will continue to validate for thousands of you the completely Foolish notion that you can invest in the stock market on your own, beat the "experts" managing the mutual funds, learn more, make more, feel more confident, and ultimately pass on to your descendants a great deal of learning and money. To use a phrase we'll coin in our next book (out in January), we'll aim to help you become hands-down...
... your family's Most Beloved Ancestor.
Together, we've lived through a superlative recent period in the American stock market. We know that the market declines from time to time, sometimes dramatically, sometimes for a long time. True Fools know these days will come, but they won't cause us to change our tune. Long-term investment in the U.S. stock market is the best game going on planet Earth, and there's nothing that leads me to believe today that investing in American growth companies over the next 50 years won't do AT LEAST as well as the previous 50.
Speaking of investing today, the Fool Portfolio fell between the Nasdaq and the S&P on a mildly up day for the market. The Fool Port rose 0.58%, outpacing the S&P 500 (up 0.33%) but unable to catch the Nasdaq's 0.70% return. The Fool Port was buoyed by dollar-plus moves in AOL, KLA-Tencor, and Trois Com, but was held back by an almost two-dollar decline in General Motors.
GENERAL MOTORS (NYSE:GM) today announced its latest stock repurchase program. The company will use its large cash position to repurchase $2.5 billion of its stock over the next 12 months. General Mo did indeed purchase $2.5 billion of its stock over just the first six months of this year, as well. For sheer value's sake, consider that the company could instead pay this money out as dividends; it's their own free cash, right, so what if they just paid it directly to shareholders? Well, $2.5 billion paid out over 729 million shares would come to an additional $3.42 per share. The company's present dividend rate of $2.00 makes a dividend yield (just the dividend per share divided by the price per share) of 3.2%. The rate with this additional dividend? A fairly outrageous 8.7%, blowing away anything comparable among the Dow industrials (or most of the rest of corporate America, for that matter).
Instead, the company will use that money to repurchase its own shares. This is the smarter, more Foolish move if you believe in your company's future. Rather than paying money directly out to shareholders, GM will be "retiring" some shares and thereby increasing its earnings per share into the future. That first $2.5 billion repurchase plan earlier this year bought 43.7 million shares at an average price of $57 1/4. Today, the stock sits at $62 5/8, almost 10% higher (and a better return than you might've gotten off that inflated dividend yield). Not a bad investment! As GM continues to do this over time, and executes its business plan, we shareholders will expect similar good vibes. It didn't treat us very royally as a Foolish Four stock this year, about equaling the market, but maybe the second year will be the charm?
Second year, third birthday, fourth anniversary, fiftieth lap around the track, whatever. These are artificial distinctions. In the end, what counts? Foolishness, baby:
Fools don't claim that cats bark, but they talk about cats when everyone
else is talking about dogs. They offend all the rules of conversation, and
when they really offend, they're magnificent....
Umberto Eco, Foucault's Pendulum, p.55
Neither man nor woman can be worth anything until they have discovered that
they are Fools. This is the first step towards becoming either estimable
or agreeable; and until it be taken there is no hope. The sooner the discovery
is made the better, as there is more time and power for taking advantage
of it.
Lord Melbourne (1779-1848), English statesman, prime minister
Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this
world, let him become a Fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this
world is foolishness with God.
1 Corinthians 3:18-19.
I have great faith in Fools: self-confidence, my friends call it.

Pupils recently visited the Crocky Trail in Chester as a reward for their hard work and achievements.
The pupils had an amazing experience on the outdoor adventure trail which is one mile in length with loads of activities along the way, such as mazes, swings, slides, bridges and tunnels. It was a unique learning experience for the pupils; it covered many aspects of the curriculum from physical education to learning about nature and the environment.
The children were able to let their imaginations run wild as they enjoyed the thrill of being in the great outdoors. The Crocky Trail provides children with good old fashioned fun and allows them to play in a way that many children simply do not have the opportunity to do so today.
"It was fantastic to see our pupils to get outdoors and enjoy the mile long adventure," explained Ms Laura Huddleston from Saint Paul's. "It was great fun; they ran along the trail, scrambled through trees, climbed over crooked bridges and swung over the fast flowing stream."
Ms Huddleston added: "The Crocky Trail was designed to give a taste of the past when children spent time running through the countryside and using their imaginations to have fun and play with their friends."
"Not only was the Crocky Trail great fun for our pupils, it was also the perfect environment for team building as groups can work together to complete the challenges that lie ahead along the trail," said Miss Tina Wilkinson, Deputy Headteacher at Saint Paul's. "The challenges brought out the best in our pupils and encouraged them to work together."

Finally, the brand that does high impact color shadows with pigment for DAAAAYS and nothing but vibrant intensity is venturing into the world of lip color!
That's right, kittens – SugarPill has started to release some really fabulous lipsticks in both traditional stick and liquid form! The first liquid lipstick, Trinket, was released earlier in 2016, but it sold out quickly and was out of stock forever. They eventually added a collab shade with RuPaul's Drag Race Season 8 finalist Kim Chi to the selection and another shade, Pumpkin Spice, as a limited seasonal color over the Thanksgiving holiday.
In addition to that, they also released 6 shades of Pretty Poison lipsticks.
For this review, I've got all 3 of the liquid lipsticks as well as 3 of the 6 Pretty Poison shades to swatch and share with you.
First, let's start with the bad news. Well, not exactly bad. More like mediocre.
The liquid lipsticks are a little bit blah and not at all what I would expect from this daring and bold brand. Tricket is a pretty enough color – sort of a dusty rose with gold shimmery glitter that comes out more and more as the product dries. The scent on this one is AHHH-mazing. Sort of a sherbet-y kind of smell, and I'm absolutely in love with it. Too many brands opt to keep the "natural" smell, though that smell usually ranges from mildly chemical all the way up to burnt plastic (seriously – smell Jeffree Star's Drug Lord). This little addition really helps up the game for this brand's first foray into lips. It's a nice color, but not the bold statement I might have expected from SugarPill.
This was followed up with the Kim Chi shade. And………..greige. Sigh. How did "greige" even become a thing?! And why in the sweet flying fuck would you collaborate with a fabulous drag queen who is known for her outrageous and colorful looks and release…….greige. All of the promo pics that I've seen look much more lavender than the shade I have in my hands – I'm not sure if it's the lighting or if something was added to it when they made her up, but none of the swatches I did looked very purple at all. There might be a slight undertone, but that's some greige shit happening right there.
And of course, for all of the basic white girls out there who just can't get through life without their yoga pants, Ugg boots, puffy vests, their "I can't even"s, and their ubiquitous and truly awful pumpkin spice lattes, SugarPill released a seasonal shade called Pumpkin Spice. And yes, it smells like pumpkin spice. Which is wretched. The color itself isn't bad – sort of a bronzey gold with a shit ton of gold glitter. But the pandering to that awful flavor melange is just about unforgivable.
It's not that any of the colors are really that terrible, they're just…disappointing. I mean, look at their pressed eyeshadows! Look at the Elektro Cute collection! So much vibrant and beautiful, eye-popping color! I would have expected liquid lipsticks with just as much love for color and pizzazz.
Luckily, they followed up with the Pretty Poison lipstick collection.
Look at those gorgeous colors! I picked up Cubby, Spank, and U4EA, and it was all I could do not to grab the whole set. If SugarPill had offered a discount for buying the bundle, I probably would have. The lipsticks retail for $20 each, which is on par with most of the brands that would be considered their competition.
SugarPill manages to do with only 6 shades what Jeffree Star's Lip Ammunition couldn't do with 10: give us a wide range of options to please a variety of different styles and desires.
U4EA and Spank are the "wow" colors, the oddballs that are perfect for the more daring and bold fans of non-conventional colors. U4EA is a shade that I don't think I've really seen in a stick before (teal is available in liquid formulas from a few brands), and it's lovely. Spank is a deep bright purple, but I think it's lighter and more true pruple than JStar's Grandaddy Purp, which I think makes it actually more user-friendly.
Detox is the shade for those looking to be on trend with what's going on now; someone seems to have decided that orange lips are the new red lips and this is a lovely way to do orange with a semi-matte finish and great color payoff.
Nurse and Girl Crush are the classic true red and bright blue-toned pink that everyone shold have int heir lipstick wardrobe. You can mix and add to customize, but the battle between red lips and pink lips rages on, and these are two great basic colors that you can wear without ever feeling basic.
Finally, Cubby is a great answer for those who like pink but don't want to do as blue-toned as Girl Crush. It's light enough that it will satisfy lovers of pastels, but deep enough that it doesn't become babyish. And the coral tone to it is also very trendy.
It just goes to show that you don't need a ton of shades to achieve a variety of looks – you just have to put some thought into it.
The lipsticks go on super smooth – they have a ton of pigment but don't feel thick or waxy. They also don't suffer from the same gritty/grainy texture as the Lip Ammunitions. They have a semi-matte appearance and are just a great standard lipstick to have in your collection.
BONUS: Since it came out with the Pumpkin Spice liquid lipstick (and since I didn't really have anywhere else to talk about it), I decided to swatch the Pumpkin Spice pressed shadow along with the lip colors. It's much more copper-toned than the lipstick, but it has a ton of metallic and glitter payoff – almost like a foiled shadow. I didn't try it with a wet brush, but I bet the results would be STUNNING.
I'm so glad that SugarPill is finally expanding their product line down the face to the lips – especially since all indications are that they are putting just as much thought and quality into those products as they have to their to-die-for eyeshadows. SugarPill is the ideal brand for anyone who loves color – and color payoff. The pigmentation in their products is EVERYTHING.
Now if only they would expand the selection of liquid lips – and give us some really groovy colors!
Now Go Forth & Get Painted!

Mexican authorities have announced the capture of a drug cartel lieutenant who allegedly served as the key players in the disappearance and likely murder of missing 43 students from the rural town of Ayotzinapa.
As reported by Breitbart Texas, cartel members and some municipal police officers allegedly kidnapped, executed, and incinerated 43 education students from the rural town of Ayotzinapa, Guerrero, last year.
This week, Mexico's National Security Commission confirmed the arrest of Gildrado "El Gil" Lopez Astudillo, a top lieutenant with the Guerreros Unidos Cartel, who allegedly ordered the executions and the incineration of the bodies.
The missing 43 students had hijacked four buses and headed to a protest where police forces fired at them and kidnapped them in the town of Iguala. The students were then turned over to a local cartel called Guerreros Unidos. After killing them, the remains of the students had been allegedly incinerated in a landfill and then the ashes dumped in a local river.
The Mexican State of Guerrero has become a hotbed of violence as various cartels continue to fight for control of the poppy fields as well as drug distribution lines. Mexican officials have stated in the past that cartel members mistook the students for rival cartel members.
The case has garnered international attention and led to demonstrations all over Mexico, where some protesters claim that the federal government was behind the murders.
As reported by Breitbart Texas, the "official" version of events took a big hit when an independent team of foreign experts questioned its credibility by claiming that the evidence at the landfill didn't match the account provided by the government.
The independent investigations have also raised the fact that there may have been a fifth hijacked bus and it may have been loaded with drugs, which the students unknowingly took.
According to the information released by the Mexican government, Lopez Astudillo led the cartel enforcement group in the towns of Iguala, where the students were kidnapped, and Cocula, the location of the landfill allegedly used to incinerate the students.
The arrest took place 11 months after the disappearance of the students when authorities tracked El Gil to an apartment in Taxco, Guerrero. He was captured with some weapons, Mexican authorities said.
The arrest of Lopez Astudillo could support the official account of events as to the students having been burned at the landfill by the cartel members. However, the cartel member could also disprove the official version if his statements end up being contrary to the "official" version of events.
So far more than 110 cartel members, municipal police officers, and even local politicians have been arrested in connection with the case.

As the summer's heat arrived I needed to refresh my body. As it was long time I haven't get out of the city's pollution I needed to refresh my mind. Here comes how I'm doing. And you ?
Planted some basil. Fresh leaves on top of a pasta salad is a perfect combination when heat decreases my appetite.
Some tomatoes too. But still waiting for them.
And "morning glory" under my window. The stems are growing up very quickly, and it will cover the window in few weeks. Then leaves will provide natural shade to refresh my living room.
I went once again toward Atago mountain. A customer asked me about trails around Kyoto. I knew there was one passing there, that goes far away south and north of Kyoto. But I didn't remember the name, so couldn't find information on Internet. Thus I decided to go there to read the name. There are actually two trails. One is Kyouto-isshuu-toreiru (京都一周トレイル), 70km long around Kyoto, detailed information are available HERE. The other one, which has common section with the first one is Toukai-shizen-hodou (東海自然歩道), linking Kyoto to Tokyo through 22 hiking courses, detailed information HERE (japanese only, sorry).
Picnic in the woods looking at Atago mountain and Otsu river. Feel the wind, listen to the nature sounds, look for animals.
Take time for this kind of lucky shot. Last year I could take the same shot with an egret at the same place. This year it's a crow. Do you ever wonder at crows' language ? It looks so complex. What are they speaking about... ?
Look at the rock in the pure water.
Look at the water flow. Wash my arms and head with the cold water immoderately.
On the 21st I went to the Toji flea market. More to see than to buy, but came back with this little dragonfly made of bamboo. Even well known, the optical illusion of this artificial thing floating smoothly in the air is always a delight for the mind. On my working desk it gives me inspiration, and has a refreshing effect by materializing the wind in the room, just like a wind-bell.
I've also 'invented' a eco-air-conditionner. Have you ever noticed how the air inside the house keep hot even if the air is getting much cooler during the night ? Wide opening the windows doesn't help much. I wished the fresh air of the night enter my house. Then I've thought about putting air fan not inside the room but outside, on the balcony, blowing the outside cool air toward the inside. It works incredibly well, just like if I've turned on the air-conditionner ! We're doing it every night, and probably saving a lot on electricity... Also the natural air is better for the health than air conditioner one.

After I published my previous blog post ("Smell the Flowers, Blow out the Candle") earlier this afternoon, it struck me. Maybe the challenges and journeys of life are what Ellie Goulding sings about in her song "My Blood."
[Granted, it reads as — and probably is — a spurned love song or recovery from a broken heart kind of theme.]
God knows I'm not dying, but I breathe now.
— Ellie Goulding, "My Blood," Halcyon, 2012
If my brain were going to sing a swan song to my Depressed Brain (and all the anxiety and panic attacks that seem to trail behind on its coattails), I'm pretty sure it would be Goulding's "My Blood." The Depressed Brain really secures a strangle-hold on the healthy brain.
I'm ready to dump the feelings and emotions my Depressed Brain releases into the drip line it fixed to me years ago. No thanks. I've had enough of your medicine.
Depressed Brain, I'm not dying. I'm hurt. I suffer. I'm definitely weakened — because of you. But I breathe now. I'm surviving. Someday I will thrive.

BaByliss 2285CU Curling Wand ProGet best price at Amazon.co.uk
BaByliss 2285CU
Nothing says Valentines Day hair like soft curls that are intimate. That is where curling wands (Or conical wands) are user friendly and far better.
I was asked if I want review and to try the brand new Curling Wand (2285CU) . Fully being a huge fan of Babyliss merchandises (My straighteners, jumbo curling tongs and drier are all Babyliss) I was eager to see whether I'd love this as much. Here are my ideas and findings...
Just a little information on the Curling Wand...
Having a changeable temperature finished with a ceramic coating in order to add glow to your own hair and to accommodate to your own unique hair needs and make sure that it remains protected from heat damage.
- Professional conical styler free of clamp creates free-flowing curls.
- Characteristics roll management technology which gradually holds the hair.
- Longer span ceramic barrel, perfect for hair that is long.
- Ceramic coating protect hair and in order to add radiance.
- Digital settings.
- Changeable temperature - accommodates for supreme control to your own unique hair needs.
- 30second warm-up time.
- Ultra-rapid heat recovery.
- Remain cool trick for safer use.
- Automatic safety shutoff after 72 minutes.
- Salon length cord for simpler use.
- Security stand to avoid harm to surfaces
This is not the first conical wand I have used, so I found it extremely simple when curling my hair. The multiple heat settings means you are able to place it to the temperature you would like, in addition, this is not extremely bad for people who've extensions (Like myself) and don't need to fry surfaces (The 180 setting is ideal for this).
The Wand actually does heat up quickly, I put mine to curl my hair for the images underneath and it had been done within 30 seconds.
That is the place where the heat evidence glove that is easy comes in. The' a great size as well as can fit most hands. Through the use of this you get great curls and save burned fingers.
To make use of a conical wand the' extremely simple also, your hair literally winds and hold the end so that it does not unravel.
By winding your curls nearer to the foundation (Near the managements where you hold the wand) you are going to get bigger curls, the closer to the point (Or opposite end) you are going to get ones that are tighter. The 'cone' like contour means you get more of an all-natural appearance when the curls do not seem 'uniform'.
What I enjoyed about the Babyliss Curling Wand?
Where to begin truly? The wand's extremely simple to use, I can do my entire head (Shoot the image underneath) in. The curls actually last nicely also. In addition, I adore that it's a Security Cut Off! I'm eternally leaving my appliances on and then being forced to run home as I am worried about burning your house down (Yes I'm forgetful sometimes!).
What I did not enjoy?
Nothing in any way. This little beauty from Babyliss is a great price and also really a excellent merchandise also.
The Babyliss 2285CU Curling Wand can be obtained from Argos and Very.co.uk at an excellent cost of around GBP24.99.
Small trick, once you've released the curl in the wand let it cool and take it in your hand to get a minute. This sets the curl better plus it's going to survive more. Or get the curl and pin it for your head and let it curl with a few bobby pins/bobby pins. Should you let straight away drops they are going to be softer and looser.
For my Valentines hair I curled my hair from the facial skin and required 1 inch size segments. Each curl was started together with the wand pointing and no higher than ear level. The hear was the fasten with 2 bobby pins and sailed to the side. The complete look is extremely fast and easy to do and took less than 20 minutes!

Nicki ripped my dress in a club because
he no like other mens to look at me! So
the next day I punish him ... by wearing
my bunga-bunga bathing suit and
crawling all over him! Smart, no?
I know. I didn't see that one coming either.
Sofia's fiance, Nick Loeb, pulled a Chris Brown on her in a Miami nightclub on New Year's Eve by going ballistic when she posed for a photo with a fan. Her sexy pose so enraged him he put the smackdown on both the fan AND his beloved, ripping her strapless dress and exposing her fabled breasts. (You can imagine how aggrieved the nightclub patrons were to get this free peep show. Terrible, terrible New Year's Eve buzz killer.)
Well we all know how much Sofia hates exposing her boobs. Yet the very next day, she and the future Mr. Vergara were canoodling on the beach, grinning like hyenas and acting as if their domestic violence episode was just a page from their Fifty Shades of Newlyweds exercise book. Click here on the link to their day-after beach romp, in which Sofia exhibits exactly ZERO signs of trauma and in fact appears to be going for round two with that way-too-sexy-for-a-jealous-boyfriend bathing suit. Ay carumba!
Depending on how healthy your psyche is, you will either be deeply relieved to learn that having amazing breasts and money and a hot boyfriend is absolutely no guarantee of happiness, or you will be sad that sweet, likable Sofia is putting up with Nick Loeb's shitty behaviour.
Yeah, me too. I'm totally going with DEEPLY RELIEVED.

DAVIE -- A project to dress up downtown western style has been so successful that town officials are considering expanding the program.
Mayor Joan Kovac said the town will try to persuade an entire block of downtown business owners to redecorate their stores in the western motif.
This, Kovac said, would provide a concentrated area of western-looking buildings and help attract new businesses to the growing community.
``The western theme is the most important thing we`ve ever done,`` Kovac said.
The project began five years ago to prevent the downtown district from becoming blighted and to preserve the 26-year-old town`s rural heritage.
It requires that all new downtown businesses, and any downtown businesses being renovated, be designed in a western looking, rural style of days gone by.
Since the western theme requirements were enacted, 26of the downtown district`s businesses have conformed to the town`s requirements, Special Projects Coordinator Nancy Leikauf said.
``Our restaurant looks beautiful,`` said Madeleine Bassette, manager of the new Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant on Davie Road. ``The decorations are flattering for us and for the town of Davie. It looks like a Christmas card.``
So far, the plan to expand the program is in the preliminary stage and no details have been worked out. Kovac said the town still needs to select a specific block for the program.
``We need to be able to point to an area and say that this is what we want the town to look like,`` Kovac said.

Riverton (Arapaho: Hóóxonó'oo) is a city in Fremont County, Wyoming, United States. The city's population was 10,615 at the 2010 census.
The city is an incorporated entity of the state of Wyoming. The community was named Riverton because of the four rivers that meet there. The town was built on land ceded from the reservation in 1906, a situation that often makes it subject to jurisdictional claims by the nearby Eastern Shoshone and Northern Arapaho tribes.
In December 2013, the US Environmental Protection Agency, Department of Interior and Department of Justicefound Riverton to be a part of the Wind River Indian Reservation.
Riverton is located at 43°1′40″N 108°23′42″W (43.027838, −108.395077). According to the United States Census Bureau, the city has a total area of 9.87 square miles (25.56 km2), of which, 9.86 square miles (25.54 km2) is land and 0.01 square miles (0.03 km2) is water.
Public education in the city of Riverton is provided by Fremont County School District #25. The district operates three K–3 elementary schools (Ashgrove, Aspen Park, and Jackson), Rendezvous Elementary School (grades 4–5), Riverton Middle School (grades 6–8), and Riverton High School (grades 9–12).
Central Wyoming College is located in Riverton, with off-campus sites in Wyoming in Jackson, Lander, Thermopolis, Dubois, and the Wind River Indian Reservation.

Just what we've always wanted.
Ford and Domino's have teamed up to create an app that makes it possible to order pizza using Ford's SYNC in-car infotainment system. The technology was unveiled at this year's Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
Using "yes" and "no" voice commands, the Domino's Pizza app lets owners of SYNC-equipped Fords shave seconds off the time it'd usually take them to order a Domino's pie. This is the kind of world we live in.
Owners need only first register their address and payment information on Domino's website before using their SYNC system to avoid all human contact when placing an order for pizza.
"Americans love pizza, and now they can have one ready for carryout or delivery when they are on their way home or heading to a gathering with friends," Julius Marchwicki, global product manager for Ford SYNC AppLink, said in a news release.
For its part, Domino's Pizza seems excited to be a part of SYNC AppLink: "This is, no question, one of the coolest in a long list of recent technology innovations for Domino's," Patrick Doyle, Domino's Pizza president and CEO, said in the release.
Ford's SYNC AppLink also offers apps by Spotify, Pandora, Amazon and others.
If the Domino's Pizza app for SYNC interests you (just admit it, you're interested), check out The Verge's video above to see the system in action.

Girls co-stars Lena Dunham and Allison Williams locked lips on Wednesday (18Mar15) as part of a charity challenge in support of autism research.
The actresses accepted the 'Twizzler Challenge' in which two participants bite down on ends of the red licorice candy and chew on it until their lips meet for a kiss.
Dunham and Williams posted a video of their challenge on Instagram.com, with Dunham saying in the footage, "We are here to take the Twizzler Challenge for autism..." as Williams added, "New York Collaborates for Autism, we love you."
After they shared a smooch, Dunham confessed, "I have a cold! I didn't want to tell you until now."
The two then challenged Broad City comediennes Ilana Glazer and Abbi Jacobson, actors Larry David and Rita Wilson, and Scandal's Katie Lowes and Guillermo Diaz, who accepted and posted their own video on social media later that day.
The Twizzler Challenge began earlier this month (Mar15) during annual telethon Night of Too Many Stars, which works with the organization New York Collaborates For Autism to raise awareness and funds for research into the developmental disorder.
The candy challenge is the latest charity craze to storm social media following last year's (14) famous Ice Bucket Challenge in support of motor neurone disease/ALS.
